Pols: Quinn veto a political stunt Local officials predict an override of governor’s changes to concealed-carry bill

McHenry County’s representatives in Springfield anticipate that lawmakers will override Gov. Pat Quinn’s changes to their compromise concealedcarry bill.

session Tuesday to consider the changes and likely vote on an override. Tuesday also happens to be the court-mandated deadline for lawmakers to legalize concealed carry before the state’s longtime ban is invalidated.

Without any rules in place by Tuesday, Illinois would have no laws governing the carrying of concealed weapons.

Local lawmakers joined others statewide, including many in Quinn’s own majority party, in criticizing Quinn’s changes to the hard-fought compromise legislation, which passed the House and Senate with the three-fifths majorities needed to override his amendatory veto.

“It’s unfortunate that it’s coming down to the wire, and it’s go-

ing to cost taxpayers for another special session,” said state Rep. Mike Tryon, R-Crystal Lake.

Quinn on Tuesday significantly altered what he called a “flawed bill that jeopardizes public safety.” He limited the number of concealed weapons a person can carry at any given time to one, and limited that gun to one 10-round magazine. Quinn

Suspect wanted in CL stabbing Two victims suffer multiple wounds

cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Both Johnsburg residents who had laid claim to $150,000 found in a vegetable garden have died – one just 10 days before a judge could decide to whom the money should be awarded.

Wayne Sabaj found the money in August 2011 in his garden after gathering some vegetables for dinner. He died Monday, his attorney, Robert Burke confirmed.

Sabaj’s neighbor, Dolores Johnson, who also claimed to be the owner of the money, died in January.

A Naperville liquor store owner also claimed the money.

An attorney for Nazco Enterprises, which owns Extra Value Liquors in Naperville, filed documents saying a masked gunman robbed the company’s president on Sept. 13, 2010, in the parking lot of Pebblewood Plaza, taking about $150,000 in bundles of mostly $20 and $50 bills.

Burke said he is confident the liquor store will withdraw its petition, but it has not done so.

RYSTAL LAKE – Columbia College of Missouri-Crystal Lake campus director Debra Hartman was looking at the campus’s graduate roster with Karen Beckstrom, Elgin’s campus director, when she saw two people with the same last name.

“It’s an interesting kind of trend for us to watch,” Hartman said.

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Team lifts Cup, weight of expectations In 2010, the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup, lifting the weight of 49 seasons of frustration for the Original Six organization in the process.

That one was for history, for the legendary players who had come before them, for the proud tradition of the Indian head sweater.

This year, the Blackhawks did it again. In so doing, they lifted the weight of oversized fan expectations, as well as cast aside those who doubted this group could repeat one of the hardest feats in all of sports.

When the NHL lockout ended and the season started in January, some questioned the lack of off-season moves made by general manager Stan Bowman.

With marquee players changing teams all over the league, it’s no wonder the additions of defensemen Sheldon Brookbank and Michal Rozsival didn’t generate a lot of excitement.

Yet, they, as well as the April acquisition of center Michal Handzus, proved to be just the pieces the Blackhawks would need.

Expectations among the Black-

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Joan Oliver hawks faithful soared when the team began the season with a record-setting 24-game streak without a loss in regulation.

Yet, when the Blackhawks lost during a regular season that was grueling in its lack of usual rest days, one would have thought the team had morphed into the Florida Panthers, so shrill was the outcry.

Never mind that the team didn’t lose three consecutive games until the second round of the playoffs.

Never mind that they finished the regular season with a record of 36-7-5.

This Stanley Cup was vindication that those early hopes were not in vain.

Once the playoffs began, few in the national hockey media seemed to remember the Blackhawks had won the Presidents’ Trophy for the most victories during the regular season.

Instead, it was all about the Detroit Red Wings, the defending champion Los Angeles Kings and the Boston Bruins.

And more specifically, it was all about their respective goalies.

Never mind that Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford and backup goalie Ray Emery had combined to win the Williams Jennings Trophy for best goals-against average in the regular season.

Never mind that in the game that Crawford had to listen to all that talk about his shaky glove side, Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask had let in six goals to Crawford’s five.

In the end, Crawford bested all of them and probably should have received the Conn Smythe Trophy for most valuable player during the NHL playoffs, no disrespect to Patrick Kane.

As hard-fought as that championship in 2010 was, this time seemed harder, tougher and more physically grueling.

Maybe the players weren’t the only ones who bought into the idea

that it would be a cakewalk after sleepwalking through that firstround series against the Minnesota Wild and then rolling over the Red Wings in Game 1 of the conference semifinal series.

Finding themselves down 3-1 in that series against the Red Wings proved the Blackhawks’ turning point in the playoffs; it just might have reignited their refusal to be denied.

In the end, the Stanley Cup Final series against the Bruins was one for the ages – gritty, intense and a lot of fun to watch. These teams were so evenly matched that it really could have gone either way.

Seventeen absolutely unbelievable seconds were the difference.

This year, the Blackhawks players raised the Cup for themselves.

They also lifted it for all of us who believed in them all season long.

Way to go, Blackhawks.

In global surveillance, U.S. has big edge

By RAPHAEL SATTER The Associated Press LONDON – The saga of Edward Snowden and the NSA makes one thing clear: The United States’ central role in developing the Internet and hosting its most powerful players has made it the global leader in the surveillance game.

Other countries, from dictatorships to democracies, are also avid snoopers, tapping into the high-capacity fiber optic cables to intercept Internet traffic, scooping their citizens’ data off domestic servers, and even launching cyberattacks to win access to

foreign networks.

But experts in the field say that Silicon Valley has made America a surveillance superpower, allowing its spies access to massive mountains of data being collected by the world’s leading communications, social media, and online storage companies. That’s on top of the United States’ fiber optic infrastructure – responsible for just under a third of the world’s international Internet capacity, according to telecom research firm TeleGeography – which allows it to act as a global postmaster, complete with the ability to peek at a big chunk of the world’s messages in transit.

“The sheer power of the U.S. infrastructure is that quite often data would be routed though the U.S. even if it didn’t make geographical sense,” Joss Wright, a researcher with the Oxford Internet Institute, said in a telephone interview. “The current status quo is a huge benefit to the U.S.” The status quo is particularly favorable to America because online spying drills into people’s private lives in a way that other, more traditional forms of espionage can’t match.

Metra buyout includes raises Former CEO will get 6 percent pay hike over 2 years The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – A severance package for the former chief executive of Chicago’s Metra commuter rail agency includes two pay raises – a revelation that is further rankling state lawmakers and others already criticizing the deal as a waste of taxpayer money.

The buyout for Alex Clifford, who had just eight months left on his contract, could hit $750,000 over more than two years, the Chicago Sun-Times reported Tuesday.

It includes two salary increases totaling 6 percent, meaning Clifford stands to earn an annual salary of more than $284,000 toward the end of the 26 months covered by the deal.

“It’s tantamount to lunacy,” said state Rep. Jack Franks, a Marengo Democrat who is among those questioning the blow to taxpayers and calling for a legislative hearing to investigate the deal.

Clifford resigned June 21 after months of secret negotiations with Metra Board members who are barred by a confidentiality clause from revealing details of the talks. Little has been said about why Clifford was pressured to go.

The former executive with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority was hired

Judge Ruben Castillo is helped with his new robe by his father, Ruben Castillo Sr., after being sworn in Tuesday as chief judge of the U.S. District Court Northern District of Illinois in Chicago. Castillo is the first Hispanic person to become chief judge of the district.

Chief judge: Need diverse juries Sworn in as 1st Hispanic to hold post in county’s district

By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press CHICAGO – The first Hispanic to lead the busy federal court district that includes McHenry County and a huge swath of northern Illinois said Tuesday that one of his priorities will be helping ensure that juries better reflect the region’s ethnic and racial diversity.

Ruben Castillo made the comments to The Associated Press in an interview shortly before he was sworn in Tuesday as chief judge of the Northern District of Illinois.

He alluded to complaints for years from defense attorneys that juries often don’t reflect the multicultural makeup of

the district, which spans from Chicago to Rockford and west to the Iowa border.

“That’s been a sore point for all of us, including the court, as we work and try to fix that,” he said.

Castillo, 58 and a long-serving U.S. district court judge, was born in Chicago to immigrant parents – his father from Mexico and his mother from Puerto Rico. He grew up on Chicago’s ethnically mixed west side, and he has maintained close links to the Latino community.

“I understand it’s historic,” he said about his rise to the post, adding that he hopes it inspires young Hispanics.

“The real significance will come on the streets of Chicago

if some kids growing up the way I grew up think to themselves, ‘Anything is possible.’

If that one kid turns into 100 or 1,000 – that’s even better.”

It’s not the only notable first in Castillo’s judicial career. He was also the first Hispanic to become a U.S. district judge in northern Illinois after being nominated by then-President Bill Clinton in 1994. Before, he worked as a defense lawyer and federal prosecutor in Chicago.

Castillo takes over as chief judge from James Holderman, whose term just ended. U.S. district judges become chief judges according to a statutory formula: It goes to the judge in a district who has the most seniority and is still under the

age of 65.

Diversity, Castillo said, would be a theme of his seven-year term.

“I’m not only going to have diversity as a goal, but I am going to ask this court to embrace diversity,” he said.

He did not offer detailed fixes to the problem of a lack of diversity on juries but said part of the solution would be for court officials, including himself personally, to reach out to minority communities and help them better understand the jury system.

As chief judge, Castillo becomes the top administrator of the court district, which is the third busiest in the nation.

There are 10 million people living within its boundaries, and its around 30 federal judges handle 1,000 criminal cases and 12,000 civil cases a year.

Alex Clifford Former CEO of Metra

State Rep. Jack Franks

on as Metra’s CEO in February 2011 to push through changes after his predecessor was accused of defrauding the agency out of about $475,000.

Metra Chairman Brad O’Halloran has said only that Clifford was departing because of a “difference in opinion” on the direction of the rail network.

O’Halloran said the size of the “generous” payout was partly because Clifford had to uproot his family from California to take the job.

Franks and other lawmakers want to know why the Metra Board did not just buy Clifford out of what was left of his contract, which would have run out next February, or just allow him to stay on for those eight months while searching for a replacement.

The two pay increases to take effect in January 2014 and January 2015 are 3 percent each, like the annual performance-based raises he was eligible for under the terms of his hiring contract.

For the last 12 months of Clifford’s severance deal, Metra will pay only the difference between what he earns in any lower paying job he might take and the $284,196 Metra salary.

Firefighters from Prescott and other area departments embrace during a memorial service Monday in Prescott, Ariz., for the 19 Granite Mountain Hotshot Crew firefighters who were killed Sunday when an out-of-control blaze overtook the group.

Investigators to examine why Arizona blaze killed so many The ASSOCIATED PRESS PRESCOTT, Ariz. – Fire crews battling a wildfire should identify escape routes and safe zones. They should pay close attention to the weather forecast. And they should post lookouts.

Those are standards the government follows to protect firefighters, which were toughened after a wildfire tragedy in Colorado nearly two decades ago.

On Tuesday, investigators from around the U.S. were arriving in Arizona to examine whether 19 highly trained firefighters who perished over the weekend heeded those rules or ignored them and paid with their lives.

In the nation’s biggest loss of firefighters since 9/11, violent wind gusts Sunday turned what was believed to be a relatively manageable lightning-ignited forest fire in the town of Yarnell into a death trap that left no escape for the team of Hotshots willing to go to the hottest part of the blaze.

The tragedy raised questions of whether the crew

should have been pulled out much earlier and whether all the usual precautions would have made any difference at all in the face of triple-digit temperatures, erratic winds and tinderbox conditions that caused the fire to explode.

In 1994, 14 firefighters died on Colorado’s Storm King Mountain, and investigators afterward found numerous errors in the way the blaze was fought. In the Storm King tragedy, a rapid change in weather sent winds raging, creating 100-foot tongues of flame. Firefighters were unable to escape as a wall of fire raced up a hillside.

The U.S. Forest Service revised its firefighting policies as a result of the blaze.

“The reforms after Storm King were collectively intended to prevent that from happening again, which was mass entrapment of an entire Hotshot crew,” said Lloyd Burton, professor of environmental law and policy at the University of Colorado.

“There are so many striking parallels between this tragedy and what happened on Storm King in 1994, it’s al-

most haunting.”

Those changes included policies that say no firefighters should be deployed unless they have a safe place to retreat. They must also be continuously informed of changing weather.

“If you don’t have those things in place, it’s not advisable to deploy a team in the first place, because you can’t guarantee their safety,” Burton said.

The Hotshot team from Prescott entered the smoky wilderness over the weekend with backpacks, chain saws and other heavy gear to remove brush and trees and deprive the flames of fuel.

But the blaze grew from 200 acres to about 2,000 in a matter of hours as “the wind kicked up to 40 to 50 mph gusts and it blew east, south, west – every which way,” said Prescott City Councilman Len Scamardo.

The crew’s only surviving member, Brendan McDonough, was on a hill top working as the lookout when the winds picked up, said Wade Ward, spokesman for the Prescott Fire Department.

Delay for major requirement of health law

By RICARDO ALONSO–ZALDIVAR The Associated Press WASHINGTON – In a major concession to business groups, the Obama administration Tuesday unexpectedly announced a one-year delay, until after the 2014 elections, in a central requirement of the new health care law that many companies provide coverage for their workers or face fines.

The move sacrificed timely implementation of President Barack Obama’s signature legislation but may help the administration politically by blunting an election-year line

of attack Republicans were planning to use. The employer requirements are among the most complex parts of the health care law, which is designed to expand coverage for uninsured Americans.

“We have heard concerns about the complexity of the requirements and the need for more time to implement them effectively,” Treasury Assistant Secretary Mark Mazur said in a blog post. “We have listened to your feedback and we are taking action.”

Business groups were jubilant. “A pleasant surprise,” said Randy Johnson, senior vice president of the U.S.

At a glance Companies with 50 or more workers must provide affordable coverage to their full-time employees or face penalties starting in 2015, rather than in 2014.

Chamber of Commerce. There was no advance sign of the administration’s action, he said.

“We commend the administration’s wise move,” said Neil Trautwein, a vice president of the National Retail Federation. It “will provide employers and businesses more time to update their

ting government-subsidized insurance. Originally, that requirement was supposed to take effect Jan. 1. It will now be delayed to 2015.

Most medium-sized and large businesses already offer health insurance and the requirement was expected to have the biggest consequences for major chain hotels, restaurants and retail stores that employ many low-wage workers. Some had threatened to cut workers’ hours, and others said they were putting off hiring.

Business groups complained since the law passed that the provision was too

health care coverage without threat of arbitrary punishment.”

But the delay could also undermine the law’s main goal of covering the nearly 50 million Americans without health insurance. Already, Republican resistance in the states will deny access to a planned Medicaid expansion – at least for next year – to millions of low-income people.

Under the health law, companies with 50 or more workers must provide affordable coverage to their full-time employees or risk a series of escalating tax penalties if just one worker ends up get-

complicated. For instance, the law created a new definition of full-time workers, those putting in 30 hours or more.

It also included two separate requirements, one to provide coverage and another that coverage be deemed “affordable” under the law. Violations of either one exposed employers to fines. But such complaints until now seemed to be going unheeded.

There is no coverage mandate – or penalty – for smaller businesses. Also, for businesses of any size, there is no penalty if their workers are poor enough to be eligible for Medicaid.

Overdose deaths Egypt’s Morsi says he won’t leave rising for women The ASSOCIATED PRESS

By MIKE STOBBE The Associated Press ATLANTA – Overdose deaths in the U.S. are rising fastest among middle-aged women, and their drug of choice is usually prescription painkillers, the government reported Tuesday.

“Mothers, wives, sisters and daughters are dying at rates that we have never seen before,” said Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which compiled the data.

The problem is one of the few health issues the CDC is working on that are clearly getting worse, he added.

For many decades, the overwhelming majority of U.S. overdose deaths were men killed by heroin or cocaine. But by 2010, 40 percent were women – most of them middle-aged women who took prescription painkillers.

Skyrocketing female overdose death rates are closely tied to a boom in the overall use of prescribed painkillers.

The new report is the CDC’s first to spotlight how the death trend has been more dramatic among women.

The CDC found that the number and rate of prescription painkiller overdose deaths among females increased about fivefold 1999 to 2010. Among men, such deaths rose about 3½ times.

Overall, more men still die from overdoses of painkillers and other drugs; there were about 23,000 such deaths in 2010, compared with about 15,300 for women. Men tend to take more risks with drugs than women, and often are more prone to the kind of workplace injuries that lead to their being prescribed painkillers in the first place, experts say.

Female overdoses The rate of overdose deaths has risen rapidly among women, with opioids the biggest killer.

But the gap has been narrowing dramatically.

Studies suggest that women are more likely to have chronic pain, to be prescribed higher doses, and to use pain drugs longer than men. Some research suggests women may be more likely than men to “doctor shop” and get pain pills from several physicians, CDC officials said.

But doctors may not recognize these facts about women, said John Eadie, director of a Brandeis University program that tracks prescription-drug monitoring efforts across the United States.

The report highlights the need for “a mindset change” by doctors, who have traditionally thought of drug abuse as a men’s problem, he said.

That means doctors should consider the possibility of addiction in female patients and think of alternative treatments for chronic pain.

CAIRO – His fate hanging in the balance, embattled President Mohammed Morsi vowed not to resign Tuesday, hours before a deadline to yield to the demands of millions of protesters or see the military suspend the constitution, disband parliament and install a new leadership.

The Islamist leader demanded that the powerful armed forces withdraw their ultimatum, saying he rejected all “dictates” – from home or abroad. Outside on the streets, the sense that both sides are ready to fight to the end sharpened, with clashes between his supporters and opponents that left at least 23 dead, most of them in a single incident of fighting outside Cairo University.

In an emotional speech aired live to the nation, Morsi, who a year ago was inaugurated as Egypt’s first freely elected president, pledged to protect his “constitutional legitimacy” with his life.

He accused loyalists of his ousted autocratic predecessor Hosni Mubarak of exploiting the wave of protests to topple his regime and

“There is no substitute for legitimacy,” said Morsi, who at times angrily raised his voice, thrust his fist in the air and pounded the podium.

He warned that electoral and constitutional legitimacy “is the only guarantee against violence.”

Morsi’s defiant statement showed that he and his Muslim Brotherhood are prepared to run the risk of challenging the army. It also entrenches the lines of confrontation between his Islamist supporters and Egyptians angry over what they see as his efforts to impose

control by his Muslim Brotherhood and his failures to deal with the country’s multiple problems.

Morsi’s opponents say he has lost his legitimacy through mistakes and power grabs and that three days of protests show the nation has turned against him.

8NATION BRIEF More air passengers showing up with guns WASHINGTON – Several times every day, at airports across the country, passengers are trying to walk through security with loaded guns in their carry-on bags, purses or pockets, even in a boot. More than a decade after 9/11 raised consciousness about airline security, it’s happening a lot more often.

So far this year, Transportation Security Administration screeners found 894 guns on passengers or in carry-on bags, a 30 percent increase over the

same period last year. The TSA set a record in May for the most guns seized in one week – 65 in all, 45 of them loaded and 15 with bullets in the chamber. The previous record had been 50 guns, set just two weeks earlier.

Last year the TSA found 1,549 firearms on passengers going through screening, up 17 percent from the year before. The TSA didn’t keep statistics on guns intercepted before 2011, but officials have noticed an upward trend in recent years, said spokesman David Castelveter.

NATO supplier’s compound attacked

By AMIR SHAH

Afghan security officers stand Tuesday at the entrance to a NATO compound in Kabul.

Militants blew up a car bomb at the gate to the compound early Tuesday, killing four guards and two civilians, police said.

The Associated Press KABUL, Afghanistan – A suicide truck bomber followed by heavily armed men stormed a NATO supplier’s compound Tuesday in Kabul, prompting a gunbattle that left a dozen people dead in the latest Taliban attack on a high-profile target in the Afghan capital.

The bold strikes have signaled the Islamic militant movement has no plans to suspend its campaign of violence even though they have agreed to embark on a U.S.-led peace process.

The violence began before dawn when the bomber drove a small truck packed with explosives to the outer gate of the logistics center used to supply NATO troops and detonated it, said Kabul provincial police chief Mohammad Ayoub Salangi. The explosion left a

huge crater in the ground and damaged a guard tower.

Two truck drivers waiting to enter the compound were killed in the blast along with the bomber, he said. Then four gunmen stormed into the breach and battled with secu-

rity guards and an Afghan police special response team for about an hour.

The attackers were all killed, along with one Afghan and four Nepalese security guards, the Interior Ministry said in a statement.

The British government confirmed that a U.K. national had been killed in the attack, but it could not say whether the victim was one of the truck drivers or a security guard or contractor.

The Taliban opened a polit-

ical office in the Qatari capital of Doha last month, indicating they were prepared to enter into Afghan peace talks, an effort that has taken on added urgency as the U.S. and its allies prepare to withdraw combat forces by the end of next year. But the movement did not renounce violence.

“This [attack] has no link to the peace process,” Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid told The Associated Press in a telephone call, promising that attacks “will continue all over the country occupied by the foreigners.”

Mujahid also said only three militants were involved in the “attack on a big foreign base important for NATO logistics,” listing the assailants by name, according to a statement on the Taliban website.

The Taliban have persisted with their campaign of violence since opening the Doha office on June 18.

Many different reasons Some changes already settled On the Net couples sought degrees • VETO Continued from page A1

• MASTER’S Continued from page A1 be a better eighth-grade teacher at Creekside Middle School in Woodstock and increase her pay, even if she still would have to keep renewing her teaching license every five years.

Patrick Snyder, community and alumni relations coordinator for Columbia College-Crystal Lake, said undergraduate degrees are a must and master’s degrees offer an even greater chance to succeed in the job market.

“I think that it’s becoming a stark reality that not only do two spouses have to work in this economy, but also thrive,” Snyder said. “If you have a family with two MBAs, the earning potential is greater – if one is out of work, they can still get by.”

That’s exactly why Steve Hermansson originally went back to complete his master’s degree; he ended up unemployed during the most recent economic recession.

“Instead of not doing anything with my career, I decided to go back to school and continue moving forward that way,” he said. “At the time, it just ended up being right.”

Hartman said it’s a testament to how these two couples value education – they are spending time and money in a master’s degree program when the money could be spent elsewhere.

“I think it’s telling that families are still investing in education,” Hartman said.

“Education lasts a lifetime, and it’s something that will always be a benefit in one’s career path. It’s also a bit of a leap of faith when going through it, particularly when we don’t know where the job market’s heading.”

Kristina Hermansson described going back to school with her husband as “a

Marta Dolan juggling act,” where often she or her husband would find time to work when their two children were sleeping or not home.

Marta Dolan, a school nurse at Laurel Hill Elementary School in Hanover Park, said she and her husband had the concept of “stealing minutes.” For example, if their 5-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son were sleeping at the same time, either she or her husband would whip out his or her laptop and do homework.

“We would steal any minute we had to make sure everything was turned in on time – even a minute in the checkout aisle,” Dolan said.

At times, Steve Hermansson said, it was easier for his family when both he and his wife were on the same page with understanding each others’ schoolwork load, or if both were taking classes at the same time. When they weren’t on the same page, he said, it was a bummer when one couldn’t go to a family or other social function.

Steve Hermansson said he and his wife are taking part in the July graduation ceremony instead because they wanted their 9-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter to attend.

“They sacrificed more than we did,” Steve Hermansson said. “It’s a ceremony for them so they can see what the late nights were for and why I couldn’t go outside and play soccer with them because I was typing away at a paper.”

Lawmakers after months of often contentious debate crafted a compromise concealed-carry bill and approved it May 31, the last day of the spring session. Illinois is the only state with a total ban on concealed carry, but a federal court struck it down in December.

Reps. Barbara Wheeler, R-Crystal Lake, and David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, accused Quinn of playing politics and pandering to a gun-control Chicago base.

Quinn, who carried four of Illinois’ 102 counties in 2010, likely faces a tough primary challenge next year from former Obama chief of staff Bill Daley, and could face another powerful challenger if Attorney General Lisa Madigan decides to run.

“He knows what’s going to happen. This is a farce and a waste of the taxpayers’ time,” Wheeler said.

Some lawmakers cited issues with particular changes made by Quinn, such as his

eliminating a provision forbidding municipalities from acting on their own to ban what commonly are called “assault-style weapons.”

Such weapons are regular semiautomatic rifles that cosmetically look like military weapons and can accept a high-capacity magazine, but only fire one round at a time. Automatic weapons of any kind already are illegal in Illinois.

Sen. Karen McConnaughay, R-St. Charles, said the provision was put in place to prevent a “patchwork quilt” of gun laws that would ensnare law-abiding gun owners.

“Any time you allow each municipality to create a situation where they can set up their own rules, you have an environment where gun owners going from one town to the next don’t know what the gun laws are,” McCon-

The Use of Leverage in Negotiations in Divorce Proceedings Michael R. Stetler, has a bachelor’s degree from the University of Illinois in Accountancy and a master’s degree in Taxation. He is also a C.P.A. His law degree is also from the University of Illinois. Mr. Stetler’s focus is on the financial aspects of a divorce and on domestic violence. He is a frequent lecturer to lawyers on divorce/tax matters.

Q: What is negotiations leverage in divorce proceedings?

A: In physics leverage is the exertion of force by means of a lever. Use of leverage in human relations is best explained by illustration. The United States has a large arsenal of nuclear weapons and missiles. The plan is not to use these instruments of war, but to deter action by other nations because we are stronger. Leverage is the same in divorce proceedings. It is demonstrating strength in order to gain a superior, or equal, position at the bargaining table.

Q: Are negotiations in divorce cases similar to negotiations we all hear about between a union and management?

Serving Fox Valley for over 35 years

naughay said.

Tryon and other lawmakers pointed out that many of the changes made by Quinn were discussed and settled during the monthslong debate process. Others, such as Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, questioned why Quinn did not participate in the process as lawmakers hashed out a bill to meet the court deadline.

“I’m disappointed that he didn’t give his ideas during the months and months and dozens and dozens of votes that we took on this,” Franks said. “This passed in both chambers by supermajority votes. The governor might have had a good idea here or there, but [the amendatory veto] went so far over.”

The Tuesday special session happens to be the deadline Quinn set for lawmakers to come up with a plan to stabilize the state’s crushing $100 billion unfunded pension liability – a deadline that will most likely not be met.

“The state is sinking in red ink, and he’s wasting time rewriting bills that the House and Senate already passed,” said Sen. Dan Duffy, R-Lake Barrington. “All he’s doing is making taxpayers spend another $43,000 to bring us down there to override his amendatory veto.”

Public urged to call with any tips

A: There are some similarities. The ultimate threat in union-management negotiations is a strike on the part of the union, or a lock out by management. But if a strike or lock out does not bring about

a quick result then it becomes a game of chicken as to who can hold out financially the longest.

In divorce proceedings (as in all litigation) there is a way to bring a halt to the game of chicken. A case can go before the judge for trial, that is, the settlement is taken out of the hands of the parties and a “settlement” is imposed by the judge. Thus the ultimate leverage in a divorce case is the threat of trial.

Q: My husband says he is the one who brings money into the family and if I do not agree to his terms that he will cut me off financially.

A: Tightening the purse strings is a way some parties to a divorce go, but it works only for a very short time because you can start a divorce and obtain an order for the support of yourself and your children which will be in place during the pendency of the divorce proceedings.

Q: How can the threat of trial be used as leverage?

A: Approximately 95 percent of all divorce cases (and for that matter all other litigation) are settled by the parties and the cases do not go to trial. If, however, you want a fair result in a settlement you need leverage and that leverage is usually your lawyer preparing the case for trial. The purpose of the preparation is not only if the case will be tried, but the purpose of the preparation is to convince the other side that you are confident of your settlement position, and if the other side is not fair in their settlement negotiations, that you are ready and able to take the case to the judge for trial and confident that the judge will grant you what you are fairly seeking.

Q: But what about money for attorney fees?

A: The law regarding attorney fees has a “Leveling the Playing Field” provision which should place the financially disadvantaged party on a parity with her spouse, that is, the monied party will have to give his spouse the same amount he is giving his lawyer so she can continue the litigation.

Q: But I don’t want a trial so I am going to a young lawyer who said that he tries to settle cases and does not try them.

A: This is a mistake and will probably assure that you get the short end of the stick because an inexperienced lawyer does not have the leverage of the threat to successfully go to trial.

President Barack Obama demonstrates “the Soccket Ball,” which uses kinetic energy to charge a cellphone or power a light, during an event to promote energy innovation on Tuesday in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania.

In Africa, Obama vies with history The ASSOCIATED PRESS DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania – Everywhere he went in Africa, President Barack Obama was competing with history.

There was the heroic leadership of former South African President Nelson Mandela, whose deteriorating health has captured the world’s attention; the legacy in Africa of Obama’s predecessor, George W. Bush, who created a widely praised program to fight HIV and AIDS on the continent; and the history surrounding Obama himself, America’s first black president and the son of a Kenyan man.

Against that backdrop, the initiatives Obama promoted on food security, improved health care and expanded access to electricity appeared to pale in comparison.

The president at times seemed to be trying to will the traveling press corps and the American public back home to grasp the importance of the ventures.

He took jabs at the U.S. media for only covering poverty or war in Africa and made a

rare on-the-record appearance before reporters on Air Force One to give an extra boost to his program for reducing hunger.

“I know that millet and maize and fertilizer doesn’t always make for sexy copy,” Obama said during an event in Dakar, Senegal, last week.

“If the American people knew the kind of work that was being done as a consequence of their generosity and their efforts, I think they’d be really proud.”

The president’s frustration underscored the challenges he faced during his three-country trip, which wrapped up Tuesday in Tanzania.

While his Africa policies have the potential to improve the lives of millions of people on the continent, he lacks a signature initiative like Bush’s anti-AIDS program, the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief.

But with deep family ties to the continent and inevitable comparisons to Mandela’s racial barrier-breaking, the expectations for him among Africans remain exceedingly high.

Take steps to avoid West Nile After rearing its ugly head in the early 2000s, the West Nile virus’ effect on Illinois residents had tempered.

But in 2010, human cases started to spike after only five were reported in 2009, For the record according to the Illinois DepartIt’s mosquito season, which ment of Health. In means area residents should 2010, there were take precautions to avoid being 61 human cases of infected with West Nile virus.

West Nile virus, including four deaths. There were 34 human cases and three deaths in 2011.

The figures skyrocketed in 2012. According to Illinois Department of Health data, there were 290 human cases of West Nile, including 12 deaths. Of the 290 human cases, six were in McHenry County.

Last month, the McHenry County Department of Health reported that mosquitoes from a mosquito trap in Harvard tested positive for West Nile virus.

West Nile virus is most commonly spread by infected mosquitoes. It can cause fever, encephalitis (inflammation of the brain) or meningitis (inflammation of the lining of the brain and spinal cord).

There are steps you can take to protect yourself from being bitten by a West Nile-infected mosquito. Follow these tips from the health department: • Wear shoes, socks, long-sleeved shirts and pants when outdoors for long periods of time or when mosquitoes are most active – usually dawn and dusk.

• When possible, avoid the outdoors during peak biting times – dawn and dusk.

• Spray clothing with insect repellent.

• Apply insect repellent sparingly to exposed skin by following label directions. Some experts recommend lower concentrations for children. Check with your doctor before applying insect repellent on infants, and wash your hands after using insect repellent.

• Look for EPA-labeled products containing DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide), Picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus or IR3535.

It also is important to eliminate mosquito breeding sites from around your residence.

Mosquito eggs can develop in any standing water that lasts more than five to seven days.

Follow these health department tips: • Turn over children’s wading pools and toys when not in use.

• Drill holes in the bottom of recycling and trash containers that are left outdoors.

• Change water in birdbaths twice a week.

• Fix leaky faucets. They provide water where mosquitoes can breed.

• Drill holes in window boxes and flower planters to prevent water from pooling.

• Aerate ornamental ponds or stock with mosquito-eating fish.

• Keep pools clean and chlorinated.

• Eliminate standing water in your property.

Take proper precautions this summer to reduce your exposure to the West Nile virus.

Salute to heroism After Sept. 11, 2001, Americans saluted the heroism of the first responders who died running up the twin towers’ staircases as office workers sought to escape. On Monday, the country once again had to mix admiration with grief as it mourned the deaths of 19 firefighters near Yarnell, Ariz., the greatest single loss to any fire department since 9/11. As residents ran from their burning homes, the firefighters ran toward the flames that soon would overtake them, trying to subdue the blazing chaparral.

This is monsoon season in Arizona, when local weather patterns can result in lightning strikes without accompanying rain. The phenomenon may well have conspired with unpredictable winds, arid conditions and extreme heat to ignite a blaze in the high desert that is still out of control. The 19 who died were elite firefighters trained to battle big blazes, socalled hotshots, from nearby Prescott.

About this time every year, men and women like these risk their lives to protect the homes and livelihoods of Americans on the edge of wilderness. Their willingness to sacrifice should prompt the rest of us to take steps to minimize the risks as much as possible.

Even with the best of planning, the country will always depend on a few men and women with grit and skill willing to protect their communities – professionals who will run toward the flames. Monday’s terrible loss should remind us of the debt we owe them when they return home – and when, tragically, they do not.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Happy birthday To the Editor: Two hundred thirty-seven years ago, America was born in revolution, conceived in liberty. She was born so all Americans could live in freedom with dignity.

Two hundred thirty-seven years ago, Americans got tired of tyranny, tired of King George, and they stood up.

And with their last full measure of devotion, inspired by the bravest of men, they left a mark on the rest of us – freedom.

Two hundred thirty-seven years later, we find ourselves in another historical crisis – our government wants to change, we the people seem to change, but both must not.

When we see the fireworks, let’s not forget the graves of the brave who died for our independence.

Let’s remember that first celebration when they shouted, “Let freedom ring!”

I know there are good Americans in Washington as well as Springfield and around the nation. But in every crisis we face, we are all called upon to answer that trum-

pet – that we shall bear any price, bear any burden for the success of liberty.

So when we see the fireworks, let us be reminded, not of our technology or materialism, but of the responsibility that calls us to be Americans, being a part in the freedom and dignity of everyone.

May God touch the hearts of the American people and His Spirit to move them. For without God, we would not have this home we call freedom. God bless you. God bless America.

Happy birthday to my brother, to whom I dedicate this letter.

Just cause To the Editor: To Rejuvenate America, part four.

Once again, we the people have a just cause, but we do not have a leader. The just cause is to regain financial control of our wonderful nation.

The fundamental cause of our financial problems is the belief that everyone should be able to own a home even if they cannot afford one. When the government caused banks to make home loans with no down payment, not requiring evidence of ability to repay the loan, the banking system went awry. People bought homes they couldn’t afford and home values skyrocketed. When people who bought homes they couldn’t afford defaulted, home prices plummeted and the recession started.

When this recession started, George Bush was president, just ending his second term. Bush consulted with the President-elect Barack Obama about the need of a

massive stimulus plan. When they both agreed on the necessity of this stimulus, it was passed into law. It exacerbated the problem.

The GNP came out of the negative but has not been over 1 ¼ percent for Obama’s first term.

Unemployment, which shot up at the start of the recession, has stubbornly remained just below 8 percent. If those who have given up looking for work were included, the figure would be more than 15 percent.

We the people have a just cause, but we have elected a loser, not a leader.

No self-evident truths in our secular society “For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.”

– Genesis 2:24, NIV The problem for people who believe in an authority higher even than the Constitution is that in our increasingly secular and indifferent society, it has become more difficult to persuade those who do not subscribe to an immutable standard to accept that view.

It is nearly impossible to restrain a people intent on throwing off any and all restraints.

History is full of examples of empires that collapsed from within before they were conquered from without.

The Supreme Court has narrowly, but effectively, removed another standard on the way to full acceptance of its right to redefine marriage and raise itself to a level higher than the Creator. What or who is to stop them? Various religious-political groups formed over many years to confront cultural erosion are in retreat and increasingly ineffective.

Modern courts might have trouble with Thomas Jefferson’s declaration, “We hold these truths to be self-evident.” Is there anything that is self-evident today and not subject to challenge given the right circumstances?

Even a secular person should be required to answer a question before removing such an important cultural underpinning as traditional marriage: If marriage is no longer

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

VIEWS Cal Thomas to be reserved for one man and one woman, as it has for millennia in many different cultures and religions, what is the new standard and on what is it based? Should we change America’s motto to “in polls we trust”?

The New York Times recently editorialized in favor of transgender rights. Polygamist groups have made it known they wish to be next in line to enjoy full constitutional protection for their lifestyle. Utah was forced to outlaw polygamy before admission to the Union. Can it, should it, revert to its previous practice and who has the authority to say “no”?

There are people who favor sex and marriage between adults and children. On what basis should they be denied their “right to happiness”? Today’s “that goes too far” easily becomes tomorrow’s “right” with a morally vacuous media leading the charge and a morally exhausted people who are afraid to say “stop,” for fear they’ll be labeled “bigots.”

Boundaries serve a purpose, in sport and in life. Fences keep out trespassers and protect children on playgrounds. Governments

impose speed limits. Lines define a football field. The problem faced by moral-political forces – from Prohibition, to abortion and now same-sex marriage – is that they are confronted by growing numbers of people who do not believe in, or can be persuaded by, ancient, even biblical, instruction constraining human behavior.

Many young people whose parents are divorced, or who are cohabiting without marriage, are not influenced by such commands or “preaching.”

While the Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision overturning the Defense of Marriage Act does not establish a constitutional right to same-sex marriage, that’s where it seems headed. Justice Antonin Scalia predicted it would a decade ago when the Supreme Court invalidated laws prohibiting homosexual conduct in Lawrence v. Texas.

One doesn’t have to approve of the court’s “reasoning” in order to hand it to the gay rights campaigners. They have done a magnificent job advancing their objectives, but they couldn’t have done it alone.

A verse from the Old Testament warns about the detrimental effects such “advances” can have on individuals and nations that abandon moral boundaries:

“In those days Israel had no king; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.”

BOND REDUCTION DENIED IN SEX CASE WOODSTOCK – A former Wonder Lake man accused of sexual contact with a minor will remain in custody on a six-figure bond.

McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather on Tuesday denied a bond reduction for Evan A. Staron, 27, of Antioch. He’s accused of sexual Evan A. Staron contact with a female family member, who was younger than 13 years old at the time.

Staron remains at McHenry County Jail in lieu of $100,000 bond.

He was charged Friday with predatory criminal sexual assault of a child, a Class X felony.

Assistant State’s Attorney Robert Zalud said additional family members have come forward with similar allegations.

The investigation is ongoing.

Some fees waived in Cary Building permits available to repair flood damage

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com CARY – Residents and business owners that had building damage from the June 26 storm and subsequent flooding won’t have to pay building permit fees.

The Village Board on Tuesday approved waiving building permit fees for repairs to damage from last week’s storm.

According to village documents, staff members expect to have requests for permits to replace wet or damaged water heaters, furnaces and electric panels. Those permits average $55 each, depending on the extent of the work, according to village documents.

The permits will be available “over the counter at Village Hall” as long as the contractor applying for the permits is registered with the village and provides basic information regard-

8ENVIRONMENTAL TIP

RECYCLING GLASS DOES SAVE MONEY Does recycling glass have more benefits beyond just reuse? It turns out the answer is yes.

New technology is making sorting the glass collected in curbside recycling more efficient by using magnets to remove metals and optical sorters to separate colors. This allows for more used glass bottles to be turned back into new glass bottles.

Then, once glass is prepared for recycling, it is mixed with soda ash, sand and limestone, and everything is melted together in a furnace heated to 2,700 degrees.

Recycled glass melts at a lower temperature than the raw materials used to make glass from scratch, so more recycled glass means huge energy savings.

Learning more, understanding more and making educated decisions when you buy creates a demand in the market and slowly the market responds.

If it costs less to make recycled glass, manufacturers and consumers will consider new choices, and round and round it goes.

Mneme therapist Dori Thompson works with Phil LoMonaco of Huntley on Tuesday during an Art Without Boundaries Association appointment at Family Alliance in Woodstock.

Art Without Boundaries is a nonprofit organization that focuses on improving the lives of individuals with Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other brain disorders by focusing on singing, movement, painting and storytelling.

Therapist aims to help lives at Family Alliance in Woodstock

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Phil LoMonaco isn’t much of a painter. Not unless you count that barn back in the day.

Yet here he is, brush planted in his right hand, making thick strokes of blue and white across the top of a square canvas.

“This is going to be like a cooking class,” Dori Thompson had told him.

“I’ve got the recipe. I’ve got all the in-

gredients. I just need you to follow the directions.”

It’s an average Tuesday at Family Alliance, a Woodstock-based adult care center.

LoMonaco, of Sun City, has been pulled into a side room, where it’s his turn for “mneme therapy,” a therapy founded by the Art Without Boundaries Association in the early 2000s that uses singing, movement, painting and storytelling to stimulate the brain.

Thompson is the state’s only mneme therapist – pronounced with a silent “m”. Self-employed but under the umbrella of Art Without Boundaries, Thompson travels across the state working with dementia and Alzheimer’s patients. Sometimes she works with autistic children. The art-based therapy can make a world of difference, she said.

“We say we offer a rewarding experience, but sometimes incredible things happen in the process,” she

said.

Thompson said she’s seen a patient whose vision had been flipped after a stroke regain proper sight during a mneme therapy session. She’s seen those with extreme short-term memory loss talk about the therapy session for hours after the fact.

Mainly, the improvements are smaller, such as someone who’s usually quiet starting to chatter.

County sheriff’s deputy fired again

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – An embattled deputy with a long history of animosity toward the sheriff once again has been fired from the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

Zane Seipler was fired Tuesday for violating the department’s general orders when he lied under oath in his civil lawsuit against the office, the Sheriff’s Office Labor attorney John Kelly said.

A federal judge in March ruled that Seipler and his wife lied on the stand and ordered him to pay a substantial amount of the sheriff’s legal bills.

The animosity between the two dates to Seipler’s first termination from the office in 2008. Shortly after, Seipler sued the sheriff, alleging that his civil rights were violated and that he

Zane Seipler

Keith Nygren

was fired out of retaliation for blowing the whistle on racial profiling.

McHenry County Sheriff Keith Nygren has said Seipler was fired the first time because he wrote traffic tickets or warnings to passengers rather than drivers who did not have valid licenses.

After arbitration and a series of rulings in Seipler’s favor, Nygren in September 2011 was forced to give Seipler his job back.

In 2010, Seipler asked for, but was denied, a special prosecutor to investigate Nygren on allegations of campaign violations.

That same year, he ran

an unsuccessful bid against Nygren in a Republican primary election.

The sheriff’s office referred all inquiries on Seipler’s most recent firing to Kelly, who said he anticpates this firing will be much like the first.

“Under the terms of the labor contract, [Seipler] can file a grievance to protest the firing, and I expect that he will,” Kelly said.

Blake Horwitz, Seipler’s attorney in the still pending federal lawsuit, said his client would not speak to the Northwest Herald, but said “we expect the same results to happen as before – that the termination will be overturned.”

As part of his still pending federal lawsuit against the sheriff, Seipler was given confidential internal documents including disciplinary records, which ended up on a blog called “The Real

MCSO Exposed.”

The now former deputy first said he did not know who ran the website, but he later said that his wife, Rosalinda, created the blog and posted the documents without his knowledge. Rosalinda Seipler took the stand to support her husband’s latest claim, but when asked to walk through the steps of creating a blog, she couldn’t do so.

U.S. District Judge Frederick J. Kapala in March called the Seiplers’ testimony a “fabricated narrative that conveniently explained what had transpired.”

“There is no justification for such a blatant disregard of the oath that they each took, and their willingness to repeatedly lie to the court in order to protect this case from the possibility of being dismissed is an affront to the integrity of this court,” Kapala said.

Last suit dismissed in Grafton

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – The era of infighting in Grafton Township ended this week after an Illinois appeals court dismissed the last remaining lawsuit between the township’s former supervisor and board members.

Former Supervisor Linda Moore originally filed the lawsuit in 2010, after the former Grafton Township Board stripped many of her executive powers and created a township administrator in her place.

Both Moore and the trustees appealed parts of a McHenry County judge’s ruling that restored Moore’s position of power.

MARENGO: SERVICE TO OTHERS

WONDER LAKE: FOURTH OF JULY EVENTS

Entering the Peace Corps

Mardi Gras-themed parade included

Marengo woman will teach English in South Africa

By OLIVIA GILBERTSEN ogilbertsen@shawmedia.com MARENGO – Cassie Lawlor, 27, of Marengo has been accepted into the Peace Corps and will spend the next 27 months teaching English to children and improving the well-being of the residents of South Africa.

Lawlor left Tuesday and does not plan to return home until her service is finished.

“The Peace Corps is something I’ve been interested in for quite a long time, and I finally decided it was a good time in my life to go for it,” Lawlor said.

“I applied last fall, because the process takes some time, and just finished graduate school this past December.”

Lawlor feels strongly that the Peace Corps’ mission is to help those who ask for help.

“We just do what the people want us to do; there’s no ulterior motive with the Peace Corps,” she said. “We just want to genuinely help.”

To teach third-graders English during her stay in South Africa, Lawlor will need to overcome a language barrier.

“For 10 weeks, I will have intensive language training,” Lawlor said. “In South Africa, they speak a lot of different languages, so once I arrive, I will find out which language group I am part of and then get tutoring from there.”

She finds it reassuring, how-

ever, that there will be a group around her of people who are going through the same language struggles.

“It will be a challenge, but I’m very excited,” she added.

Lawlor is the daughter of Patrick and Patricia Lawlor and a 2004 graduate of Marian Central Catholic High School.

She earned a bachelor’s degree from Augustana College in 2008 and her Cassie Lawlor master’s degree in 2012 from Bradley University.

During Lawlor’s first three months in South Africa, she will complete technical, language, health and safety training, all while staying with a host family to become immersed in the South African culture. She then will continue her two-year service with the Peace Corps.

She believes her education will enhance her experience.

“When I was in grad school, I taught undergraduate classes,” Lawlor said. “Although I’ll be teaching at the third-grade level, I still think this will help me. And my undergraduate education was in liberal arts, which allowed me to learn a wide range of information.

This will also help me with my service in the Peace Corps.”

Once Lawlor is officially sworn into service and assigned a community, she will work on community-driven development projects.

Lawlor’s primary goal is education, but all Peace Corps members have a secondary goal. The secondary goal varies and is chosen by the members.

“A common secondary goal in South Africa is gardening because they struggle with malnutrition,” she said. “I’m not sure what I will do exactly yet, but I am open to many different things.”

Lawlor said she is nervous but mostly excited.

“I’m a little sad to be leaving my friends and family, but I think that the time will go by so fast and it will be over before I know it,” she said. “There are concerns in the back of my mind, like the language and safety, but the Peace Corps has been around for so long, and they are very good at preparing us.”

Lawlor will join 352 other Illinois residents serving in the Peace Corps.

“I hope to get a better understanding of people in a completely different part of the world,” she said. “I really hope that living in a different culture for an extended time will allow me to bring that culture back home and hopefully have my experience affect the rest of my life and others.”

CARY: WEATHER

Richmond to discuss Serious flooding common in local area assault weapons ban

By JIM DALLKE

jdallke@shawmedia.com

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com RICHMOND – Richmond village officials don’t want to cobble together an assault weapons ban and rush it through, but that’s what they have to do, the village president said.

The Richmond Village Board has a “shell ordinance” on the agenda for its meeting Wednesday evening, Village President Pete Koenig said.

“It’s a very basic template ordinance,” he said. “We haven’t had any discussion yet about what the ordinance should really contain. We have a boiler plate thing that we’re going to put on the table.”

The village – like other local governments across Illinois – is under a time crunch from a proposed concealed-carry bill.

The bill as passed by the General Assembly gives municipalities 10 days from the time the legislation takes effect to pass bans on semi-automatic assault-style weapons.

In an amendatory veto, Gov. Pat Quinn removed that restriction for home rule communities, according to the ZRFM law firm in Crystal Lake, but some legislators have vowed to override the

veto and Quinn’s changes.

Both an override and accepting the changes require the Legislature’s approval, an override takes a three-fifths majority and approval a simple majority.

Richmond wants to be prepared in case the override happens, Koenig said.

The state has until Tuesday to pass a concealed-carry law to replace the ban a federal judge threw out.

“Once we put something on the books, we have the latitude to amend it later,” Koenig said.

“If we don’t put something on the books, we have no option to do something later.”

Koenig expects debate at Wednesday’s meeting, and while he’s not sure where he stands, he knows there are trustees on both sides of the issue.

“I’m personally not a gun person,” he said. “I don’t hunt. I don’t own a gun. But I don’t necessarily have a problem with people who do these things. I’m more worried about Columbine, Sandy Hook, all of these things that involve these outrageously dangerous weapons. If we have the ability to put controls on those, perhaps we should do it.”

CARY – Lorna Kube knows all too well about what happens at Crest and Sunset drives.

For 10 years, Kube and her husband lived at 65 Sunset Drive in Cary, an area of McHenry County hit hard by last week’s flooding.

The home sits at the bottom of a hill where Crest and Sunset drives meet. When heavy rains hit, water rushes down the hill and pours into the garage and lower level of that house, as well as into several other residences in the neighborhood.

Three serious floods wreaked havoc on Kube’s home from 2001 to 2011, ruining everything in her garage and lower level each time. The couple lost three cars to flood damage.

August 2011 was the last straw for Kube, as floodwater caused the interior walls of her

Clark said the village is aware of the flooding history at Crest and Sunset drives, and said cost is the primary reason that more responsive measures haven’t been taken in the past.

Kube said the problem didn’t start when she moved into the neighborhood. After the first major flood hit her home, the previous resident came by and told her they endured three floods as well and couldn’t afford to keep rehabbing the house.

Residents are hoping the July 11 meeting finally will provide answers as to how to protect their homes, but not everyone believes the neighborhood is worth saving.

“I want [the village] to condemn the area, give us money for the property, bulldoze the houses and put in a retention pond,” Joann Yeaton said. “We don’t want to go into foreclosure and wreck our credit over this.”

July 11 with residents who live on Sunset and Crest drives to discuss flooding issues, something Kube said never happened when she lived in the neighborhood.

“We were told [by the village], ‘This is your problem.

You deal with it,’ ” she said.

“This has gone on forever and keeps getting passed on to new people.”

Cary Village Administrator Chris Clark said officials plan to listen to the neighbors’ concerns at the meeting, but they don’t expect to present any solutions until the village conducts a damage assessment of the area, which began Tuesday.

“Right now we’re in the process of working with the Emergency Management Agency to conduct a damage assessment,” Clark said. “We’re gathering specific information about the amount of damage and how the water came into the properties.”

“If anyone had been inside, they would have been killed,” she said.

The couple moved soon after, opting to sell the house to the bank rather than to another resident destined to inevitably experience the same flood damage.

Kevin and Joann Yeaton moved into the property in January and received no notice from the bank about flooding issues.

After last Wednesday’s storms, the couple had 4 feet of water in their driveway and a refrigerator floating downstairs.

“It seems as though it’s a recurring thing here that hasn’t been addressed properly by the village,” said Kevin Yeaton, who estimates his home has at least $10,000 worth of damage.

“You can see the ruin this has caused.”

CRYSTAL LAKE: EDUCATION

Hinz eager after first day as District 47 superintendent

By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Kathy Hinz always dreamed of becoming a superintendent. She just never thought it would happen in the only district she has ever worked.

The former assistant superintendent of student services and professional development for Crystal Lake School District 47 officially took over Monday as the district’s top administrator on an

interim basis.

Hinz had been pegged as the interim superintendent since former district head Donn Mendoza entered into a mutual resignation June 6.

Her appointment could not become official until the board approved the promotion Monday, which marked the first day of the new fiscal year for the district.

“I’m very honored the board has given me this opportunity,” Hinz said. “It’s always been my dream to be

a superintendent, but I never thought I would have that opportunity here.”

With the promotion from assistant superintendent of student services and professional development to interim superintendent, Hinz’s salary will increase from $115,798 to $139,198 – still less than the roughly $160,000 Mendoza made last year.

Hinz has spent her entire career in education working in District 47. After graduating in 1996, she served as a

school counselor at Lundahl Middle School and Indian Prairie Elementary School through the Special Education District of McHenry County.

In 2000, the district hired Hinz as an assistant director of student services before she rose to assistant superintendent. Hinz said her background in special education gives her a different perspective in her new role.

“You learn to understand different communication

styles, and you become an active listener,” Hinz said of working in special education.

“I think that experience will definitely help.”

Hinz enters into leadership with major initiatives about to begin, including launching Character Counts, aligning curriculum to Common Core standards and beginning fullday kindergarten for the first time.

Board President Jeff Mason said all board members have a “great amount of con-

fidence,” and Hinz would be the superintendent for the full school year. He said the board would review her performance near the end of the school year and determine whether to make the position permanent.

“We’re comfortable putting Kathy in charge of the district for the year and giving her the total responsibilities,” he said. “Normally you would like her to have more transition time, but we’re confident.”

“It’s not art therapy. It’s a whole brain therapy,” Thompson said. “We’re trying to encourage neuroplasticity in the brain by making new connections.”

Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to make new neural connections to account for things such as disease and injury.

Family Alliance leadership adopted the therapy technique this spring, and they now bring Thompson in on a weekly basis. She sees about six people a week during one-on-one sessions.

8LOCAL BRIEF Seven indicted in drug investigation

Flooding affects 37 houses, 8 businesses in Cary ing with Lauterbach & Amen since August, when former finance director Ron Pfeiffer retired from the village and began working with the firm.

Lauterbach & Amen’s nine-month agreement was set to expire in April, but it was extended through June 19 so the village could review the work by the firm.

“L&A has provided excellent service for the village over the past year,” according to a memo from staff to the village trustees.

Under the agreement, the village will pay Lauterbach & Amen $125,000 for the first year of the new deal. The firm will receive $127,500 the second year.

• CARY Continued from page B1 Last week’s storm led to flooding in areas around McHenry County, including parts of Cary. More than 6 inches of rain fell on the village.

Cris Papierniak, the director of public works, said the village had reports of 37 houses and eight businesses being damaged by flooding.

In other action, the Village Board approved a new twoyear agreement with Lauterbach & Amen to provide finance and accounting services.

The village has been work-

WHEATON – Seven people were arrested and about 30 kilos of cocaine and heroin were seized as part of an investigation of what officials say is a three-county drug trafficking organization, according to a news release.

The arrests were the result of a three-year investigation by area law enforcement and the office of Homeland Security Investigations into a Guerrero-based organization that brings drugs into DuPage County and then disperses them throughout DuPage, McHenry and Cook counties, said Paul Darrah, a spokesman for the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office.

If the agreement is extended beyond June 2015, the amount paid to Lauterbach & Amen would be increased by 2 percent until April 30, 2017, or until the agreement is terminated, whichever occurs first.

Michael DuCharme, who has worked as a director of finance for Hoffman Estates and assistant director of finance in Schaumburg in the past, will work three days a week in Cary as part of the agreement with Lauterbach and Amen.

Under the agreement, the village can review the service agreement for renewal, and either party can give six months notice to cancel the service.

Darrah wasn’t able to provide information about the quantity of drugs being moved into McHenry County, but the total amount seized has a street value in the millions, the release said.

While the names of those arrested have been released, other information, including place of residence and age, is being withheld because the investigation is ongoing, Darrah said.

Javier Garcia Gomez, Domingo Guillen, Juan Espera Pegraza, Rene Rojo, David Salgado, Erika Salgado-Pineda and Leslie Salgado-Pineda were indicted on criminal drug conspiracy charges, a Class Super X felony, and charged with possession with the intent to deliver, a Class X felony.

Attorney John Nelson, who represented Moore in the lawsuit, told the Northwest Herald that a state appellate court dismissed the case Monday, after Nelson wanted it tossed earlier this year.

“The bottom line is the case is dismissed,” Nelson said.

“The case was moot because it involved parties in their official township capacity. ... The [current] board made clear they didn’t want to pursue the matter; therefore, the issue is moot.”

Trustee Betty Zirk is the only holdover official from Moore’s tenure, which was defined by costly lawsuits and discord among every elected Grafton official. The four years of infighting and litigation nearly bankrupted the township earlier this year.

Current Supervisor Jim Kearns and a revamped Grafton board sided with Nelson’s move to dismiss the 2010 lawsuit, after having no interest in pursuing the appeal, Kearns said.

The appellate court’s ruling came nearly two weeks after a McHenry County judge dismissed a lawsuit between Moore and former Road Commissioner Jack Freund.

The dispute between the two officials involved nearly $7,000 in health care expenses owed to Freund. Kearns paid those expenses shortly after he took office in May to bring a swift resolution to the issue, he said.

A third lawsuit between Moore and former Assessor Bill Ottley over office upgrades was dismissed earlier this spring.

“There is nothing left to fight about,” Kearns said.

“That’s why I paid [Freund] right away, so it wouldn’t drag for another two months.”

But a loose end remains from the lawsuit between Moore and Freund. The township is disputing the $42,000 owed to the Naperville firm Ottosen Britz for representing Moore in the lawsuit.

The court ordered Grafton to pay the legal fees owed to Nelson in that case, but no such order exists for Ottosen Britz, a second firm used by Moore in the lawsuit, Grafton attorney Joe Gottemoller said.

Gottemoller has contacted the firm to try and negotiate the proper amount Grafton should pay the firm. But he warned that Ottosen Britz ultimately could decide to file suit and have the court order Grafton to pay the full $42,000.

“It’s a question of what the fair amount should be,” Gottemoller said. “Nobody on the current board intends to go back to court, but if the board gets sued, we have to respond.”

tia,” said Cheryl Levinson, clinical director of Family Alliance.

“It gives people a sense of purpose that we all need no matter what our abilities are at a given time,” she continued.

“And it gives them an opportunity to express themselves in a way they might not be able to otherwise.”

The ability to express herself is why Susan Ray, a Family Alliance patient from McHenry, enjoyed mneme therapy, and why she enjoys art in general.

“The art is in me,” Ray said.

“So it’s got to come out.”

It’s a tougher sell for people such as LoMonaco. During his 45-minute session, he cracks self-deprecating jokes about his own artistic abilities.

But when the painting is completed, revealing a lone tree sprouted from a sandy horizon, LoMonaco’s tone has changed.

“The more I look at it,” he said as Thompson held up the painting for him to scan, the more I like it.”

HUNTLEY FOOTBALL

MCJGA MARENGO RIDGE OPEN

Reserved seats are going fast

Matthew Haussmann hits out of a bunker on the 13th hole during the MCJGA Marengo Ridge Open on Tuesday.

Breakthrough Woodstock’s Ferguson earns first MCJGA win

By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com MARENGO – Huntley’s Brad Spoeth entered the clubhouse Tuesday morning feeling confident after shooting a 2-over-par 74 during the McHenry County Junior Golf Association’s Marengo Ridge Open.

Spoeth, the points leader this season in the boys senior division, thought his score would be good

enough to win, but Woodstock senior Alex Ferguson felt at home on a course he plays regularly with his dad.

After shooting a 40 on the first nine holes, Ferguson turned it on and found a groove on the back nine and birdied four holes in a row, starting with the 13th hole.

He shot a 3-under 33 on the back nine en route to a winning score of 73.

Spoeth took second and Hunter

Simonini (76) was third.

“It just felt really smooth,” Ferguson said. “I was hitting my drives really straight and hitting greens, and my putting saved my game today.”

Ferguson was about an hour behind Spoeth’s group, and when he reached the 18th tee, he was 1 over and knew he could secure a victory with a par.

Rocky Scalise tends not to stay in one place too long at Huntley home football games, but understands other members of his family tend not to be as mobile.

So when the school’s athletic booster club introduced a reserved season ticket program for Red Raiders home games, Scalise made sure he didn’t miss out. That’s why he paid $400 for four seats on the 50-yard line, part of a grouping of 150 high-back chairs in Huntley’s renovated stadium this fall.

The seats, which “I think having sell for $100 apiece, a reserved seat guarantees fans they’ll be sitting in the identi- every week would cal spot for Huntley’s be appealing to five home sophomore and varsity games this people.” fall, have gone quickly. The booster club Jim Ambrose sold 80 the first day.

Huntley booster club As of Tuesday, only vice president 35 remained. The new reserved seating program is similar to the one Cary-Grove’s booster club introduced for Trojans home gams last season.

For Scalise, whose son Jake will be a senior, knowing his parents – who live in Huntley’s Del Webb community – will have a place to sit this fall offers a certain level of security.

Jim Ambrose, Huntley’s booster club vice president, knows how valuable a comfortable seat can be. Ambrose, whose children are involved in Huntley’s football and cheerleading programs, has, for the past three years, arrived Friday afternoons around 4:30 for the start of the sophomore game and stays until nearly 10.

“I think having a reserved seat every week would be appealing to people,” Ambrose said.

Huntley is making $4 million in improvements to its athletic facilities, including the football stadium. This fall, the Red Raiders will play on FieldTurf, becoming the first Fox Valley Conference team to make that kind of upgrade to its stadium’s playing surface.

The Red Raiders are also coming off a 6-4 season under first-year coach John Hart – only a year after Huntley finished 2-7, creating a buzz around the community that booster club and school officials felt would make a reserved seating program successful.

The reserved seating section is designed to be the best seats in the home seating area, which will more than double this year, going from 900 seats to approximately 2,000. The seats will be installed later this summer once the bleachers are replaced as part of the stadium renovation.

The goal is to have the entire middle section of the home stands dedicated to as many as 450 reserved seats, which would be color-coded, creating a white “H” surrounded by red seats.

“The gist of this is to really develop more of a community atmosphere around the stadium,” said Jeff Jenkins, who purchased a pair of reserved seats for the fall and who handles communications for the booster club. “But it’s kind of taking the stadium, the whole sports idea to the next level.”

Feldman deal makes sense Let the trade frenzy commence.

In what is expected to be an active trade season for the Cubs, they made their first move by unloading right-hander Scott Feldman. Feldman, who signed with the Cubs during the offseason, was traded to the Orioles on Tuesday along with catcher Steve Clevenger for right-handers Jake Arrieta and Pedro Strop plus international bonus pool money.

The Cubs traded reliever Carlos Marmol and international pool money to the Dodgers for right-hander Matt Guerrier. Both pitchers had been designated for assignment by their respective ballclub. The Cubs also gave up some of that bonus pool.

“It was hard to let him go,” general manager Jed Hoyer said of Feldman. “I hope we’re adding players like him someday in the same vein.

“To Scott’s credit, he was really focused on a one-year deal. He made a big bet on himself

and believed in himself.”

Although replacing Feldman in the rotation will be difficult – Chris Rusin started in his place Tuesday at Oakland – the trade was a great deal for the Cubs. Feldman, making $6 million on a one-year deal, would have been gone after the season anyway having proved he’s capable of being a consistent starting pitcher.

The Cubs continue to replenish a system lacking power arms with the addition of Arrieta and Strop. Just as important: the addition of international pool money.

The Reds’ Homer Bailey celebrates Tuesday after throwing a no-hitter against the Giants in Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI – Homer Bailey threw his second no-hitter in 10 months and the first in the majors this season, pitching the Cincinnati Reds to a 3-0 victory over the slumping San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night.

Bailey (5-6) became the third Reds pitcher with more than one no-hitter, joining Jim Maloney and Johnny Vander Meer – still the only big leaguer to toss two in a row. Bailey beat the Pirates, 1-0, Sept. 28 in Pittsburgh and got another 17 starts later.

Mohammed staying with Bulls The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Veteran center Nazr Mohammed said he is staying with the Bulls.

Mohammed announced on Twitter on Tuesday that he will re-sign with his hometown team, saying it was “an easy decision” and he was looking forward to “going to battle with a group of guys

who never made excuses and just tried to find a way to win.”

Several news media Nazr outlets also Mohammed reported that the Bulls have agreed to a two-year deal with Mike Dunleavy Jr. as

they try to boost their shooting. Dunleavy, an 11-year veteran, spent the past two years with Milwaukee and averaged 10.5 points while shooting 42.8 percent on 3-pointers.

The Bulls also drafted New Mexico’s Tony Snell and Florida’s Erik Murphy to boost their perimeter game.

Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, charged in the slaying of Odin Lloyd, a 27-year-old semi-pro football player, has a history of violent encounters.

AARON HERNANDEZ CHARGED WITH MURDER

Hernandez’s history: No stranger to violence Ex-Patriots TE linked to double homicide in Conn.

By BRIDGET MURPHY The Associated Press BOSTON – When Aaron Hernandez first went before a judge to face a murder charge, a defense attorney said the former New England Patriots tight end had never been accused of a violent crime. But Hernandez is apparently no stranger to violence.

Since he was arrested last week in the shooting death of a friend whose body was found a mile away from his home, a portrait has emerged of a man whose life away from the field included frequent connections with police-related incidents that started as long ago as his freshman year at the University of Florida.

• An acquaintance who sued Hernandez, claiming he was shot after a fight in a strip club this year • A 2007 bar fight that left a restaurant worker with a burst ear drum • An unsolved double murder at a Boston nightclub last summer All violent incidents, all with possible ties to the oncedominating athlete who now sits in a private cell for his own protection.

Hernandez has pleaded not guilty in the shooting death of 27-year-old Odin Lloyd, whose body was found June 17 not far from Hernandez’s North Attleborough, Mass. mansion.

His defense team has called the case circumstantial and has said Hernandez looks forward to clearing his name.

But even before the 23-yearold’s recent arrest, public records and interviews show he had been involved in police inquires in the past, first in Florida and then in the Boston area.

A sworn court complaint from Florida’s Eighth Judicial Circuit details Hernandez’s apparent involvement in an April 2007 fight at a restaurant called The Swamp in Gainesville, Fla. The partially redacted document says the restaurant worker told police that Hernandez, who was then 17, punched him in the head while he was escorting the subject out of the business after a dispute about an alleged nonpayment of a bill.

Tim Tebow, now a member of the Patriots and at the time Florida’s star quarterback, is listed as a witness. The report said Hernandez asked him to intervene in the verbal dispute before the assault.

The complaint classifies the offense as “felony battery.” It wasn’t clear Tuesday how the case was resolved.

Also in 2007, Hernandez was among three Florida football players and another who had gone on to the NFL questioned

by Gainesville police after a double shooting that happened after a Florida loss. Police said the players provided the information investigators wanted.

No charges were ever filed.

A request for comment left with a spokesman for Hernandez’s legal team Tuesday evening was not immediately returned.

Although Hernandez is facing a murder charge, his current legal troubles may not end there.

Police in Hernandez’s hometown of Bristol, Conn., said Tuesday that Boston police asked for their help with a double homicide investigation linked to the former NFL star.

Bristol Police Lt. Kevin Morrell said the request was based on evidence developed through the investigation of Lloyd’s slaying. He said police were asked to search the same home in Bristol for both investigations, and they seized a vehicle at the address Friday.

Two men died in the shooting in Boston’s South End on July 15, 2012, and another was wounded. Witnesses reported seeing gunfire coming from a gray SUV with Rhode Island plates. Authorities said 29-year-old Daniel Jorge Correia de Abreu and 28-year-old Safiro Teixeira Furtado were killed, the third man was not identified.

Boston police have declined to comment on whether Hernandez is being looked at as a possible suspect in that case from last summer.

Hernandez has been connected to still more incidents involving guns, although none have resulted in criminal charges against him.

A man who claims Hernan-

dez shot him in the face in February after an argument at a Florida strip club filed a civil lawsuit days before police arrested Hernandez.

Plaintiff Alexander Bradley claims in the civil action that Hernandez shot him with a handgun, causing him to lose his right eye. But after someone found the Connecticut man bleeding in an alley behind a Palm Beach County store after hearing a gunshot, he told police he didn’t know who shot him and gave only a vague description of possible assailants.

Bradley’s lawyer David Jaroslawicz wouldn’t comment Tuesday about the nature of the alleged dispute between his client and Hernandez. He said the two flew to South Florida together before getting into a dispute at a Miami club.

The attorney said Bradley, who worked for Stanley Steamer before the shooting, had done some work for Hernandez and that the two also hung out socially a few times and had known each other for several years.

“The last thing we expected was a few days after we filed the lawsuit police would find a dead body a few miles from his house,” the attorney said in a phone interview.

Authorities also have linked Hernandez to a May 18 fight outside a bar in Providence, R.I., that involved a gun.

A prosecutor with the Bristol County district attorney’s office has said that a man who matched the description of a man seen on video with Hernandez on the night of Lloyd’s slaying was seen putting a gun under a car during the Rhode Island incident.

Authorities traced that gun to a Florida gun shop.

Then after Lloyd’s death, police said they recovered a .22-caliber gun about a quarter-mile from the defendant’s home – a weapon authorities said was traced to the same store.

PHOENIX – A person with knowledge of the situation said a three-team trade was in place that sends J.J. Redick from the Milwaukee Bucks to the Los Angeles Clippers and point guard Eric Bledsoe from the Clippers to the Phoenix Suns.

The deal also sends Jared Dudley from the Suns to the Clippers and Caron Butler from the Clippers to the Suns. The Bucks will get two second-round draft picks, according to the person, who requested anonymity because the deal can’t officially be made public until July 10 under NBA rules.

Yahoo! Sports, which first reported the trade, said Redick gets a four-year, $27 million sign-and-trade contract as part of the exchange.

In Redick, the Clippers get a much-needed shooting guard to play alongside Chris Paul, who has decided to resign with a team that has visions of contending for the Western Conference title.

The Bucks acquired Redick from Orlando just before the February trade deadline, but decided not to re-sign him. Between the two teams, Redick averaged a career-best 14.1 points a game. He scored a careerhigh 31 points and made a career-best eight 3-pointers for Orlando against Detroit on Jan. 27. The former Duke star averaged 12.1 points with

A person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press a three-team trade is in place that sends J.J. Redick (above) from the Bucks to the Los Angeles Clippers. the Bucks.

Bledsoe is the important piece for the Suns in the first trade engineered by new general manager Ryan McDonough. Paul’s highly regarded backup played three seasons for Los Angeles after being drafted 18th overall out of Kentucky in the 2010 draft.

Bledsoe averaged 8.5 points and 3.1 assists in 76 games for the Clippers last season.

The Suns already have Goran Dragic and Kendall Marshall at point guard, then drafted another in 18-year-old Archie Goodwin from Kentucky with the 29th pick last week.

Just what McDonough plans to do to relieve that

logjam remains an open question because team officials are prohibited from talking about any moves until July 10.

Dudley, a highly popular player with Phoenix who played small forward and shooting guard for the Suns, tweeted his approval of the trade.

“I can’t lie, I’m excited to play close to home!!!” he wrote. “If I had to go to any team it would be the Clippers!! Time to get to work!!!”

He also thanked the fans and the coaches, current and former team officials and Suns owner Robert Sarver.

Dudley, in his fifth NBA season and third with the Suns, averaged a career-high 10.9 points in 2012-13, his first as a starter, but he was part of a team that posted the secondworst record in Suns history.

With the drafting of 7-foot-1 Alex Len as the fifth pick overall and the acquisition of Bledsoe and Butler, McDonough – formerly the assistant GM in Boston – is making his first steps to shake up an unimpressive roster.

The deal has the Suns taking on the contract of Butler, a two-time NBA all-star who has played 11 seasons in the league with five teams. His biggest success came in his time with the Washington Wizards. Butler averaged 10.4 points last season, the second of a three-year, $24 million contract he signed with the Clippers.

NBA NOTES

Lakers make pitch to Howard The ASSOCIATED PRESS EL SEGUNDO, Calif. – Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak, Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash and other representatives of the team met Tuesday for about two hours with free agent center Dwight Howard to make their pitch for keeping him in Los Angeles.

“At the meeting, we told him how important he is to the Lakers team, franchise, fans and community, and why we feel this is the best place for him to continue his career,” Kupchak said in a statement released by the team. “We are hopeful that Dwight decides to remain a Laker.”

Howard became one of the NBA’s most coveted free agents when free agency opened Monday. The Lakers have made no secret they want to keep him. The Hous-

ton Rockets, the Dallas Mavericks and the Atlanta Hawks also are interested.

Wolves lock up Budinger, Kevin Martin: At Minneapolis,

Webster agreed to a four-year deal to stay with the Washington Wizards.

Webster reached terms with the team Tuesday.

Bringing back Webster was a top priority for the Wizards. The eight-year veteran swingman averaged a careerhigh 11.4 points last season and was a respected locker room leader. He could also serve as a mentor for Otto Porter, chosen No. 3 overall

by Washington last month in the draft.

Webster tweeted a video of himself saying: “I’m back.

You got me for four years, D.C.” It was the Wizards’ second move of the free agency negotiating period. On Monday, they reached an oral agreement with Eric Maynor to be their backup point guard.

the Minnesota Timberwolves entered unrestricted free agency with two priorities at the top of their list – add a shooting guard with range and bringing back Chase Budinger.

Within the matter of a couple of hours Tuesday, new team president Flip Saunders accomplished both of those goals.

The Timberwolves agreed to a four-year, $30 million deal with shooting guard Kevin Martin and a three-year, $16 million with Budinger, according to two people with knowledge of the deals. Budinger’s deal includes a player option for the final season. The people requested anonymity because an official announcement has

8SPORTS SHORTS Seattle holds Sky to season-low point total ROSEMONT – When the Seattle Storm couldn’t find the basket early, it was up to their defense to partly compensate.

The Storm shook off poor early shooting and a 14-point deficit to eventually catch and pass the Sky on the way to a 69-60 victory Tuesday night at All-State Arena.

Camille Little and Temeka Johnson led a balanced attack with 16 points apiece as the Storm (5-6) snapped a threegame losing streak.

Elena Delle Donne and

Epiphanny Prince each scored 12 points for the Sky (7-4), Swin Cash had 14 rebounds and Delle Donne added 12 as the Sky had their lowest offensive production of the season.

Orica Greenedge wins team time trial in stage 4 NICE, France – Orica Greenedge won the team time trial Tuesday on the fourth stage of the Tour de France to put veteran Australian rider Simon Gerrans in the race leader’s yellow jersey.

Considered an outsider to

win the 15.5-mile dash along the streets of the southern seaport of Nice, Orica edged early pacesetter Omega Pharma-Quickstep. The top four teams finished within 10 seconds of each other.

The 33-year-old Gerrans, who won the third stage in a sprint finish, takes over at the top from Belgian rider Jan Bakelants.

Tour favorite Chris Froome’s Sky team finished third ahead of rival Alberto Contador’s Saxo-Tinkoff.

Fine drops lawsuit

Wisconsin star’s name removed from award

Fired assistant sued ESPN for defamation

By MICHAEL VIRTANEN The Associated Press ALBANY, N.Y. – Former Syracuse assistant basketball coach Bernie Fine is dropping his defamation lawsuit against ESPN, his lawyers said Tuesday.

Fine sued over broadcasts aired by ESPN with claims by two former ball boys that Fine molested them more than two decades ago. Fine was fired in November 2011, days after the broadcasts.

The 67-year-old Fine was investigated by federal prosecutors and never charged and has maintained his innocence.

William Albert, spokesman for the Harris Beach law firm, said Fine voluntarily filed notice of dismissal Tuesday although both he and his attorneys believe his legal claim has merit.

“Mr. Fine desires to finally put all of the turmoil of the past year and a half behind him, so that he may concentrate on his future as well as the future of his family,” Albert said. He added that Fine has been overwhelmed by the many friends who stood by him.

An ESPN spokesman said Tuesday’s withdrawal was not the result of a settlement but declined to comment further.

The ex-coach’s wife, Laurie Fine, has a separate defamation suit against ESPN pending in federal court. It was filed in May 2012, with trial tentatively set for November 2014.

After a probe spanning nearly a year, federal authorities dropped their investigation into one of the sexual abuse claims against Fine, saying there was not enough evidence to support a claim that Fine had molested a boy in a Pitts-

burgh hotel room in 2002.

The investigation began in the immediate aftermath of the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal at Penn State. Two former Syracuse ball boys, Bobby Davis and stepbrother Michael Lang, came forward and accused Fine of fondling them when they were teens. Davis said the sexual contact continued for years.

But the claims by Davis and Lang had happened too long ago to be prosecuted. Ten days later, though, a third man, 23-year-old Zachary Tomaselli, of Lewiston, Maine, went public with an accusation that Fine had molested him in 2002 in a hotel room when the team played in Pittsburgh. The same day, ESPN aired an audiotape in which Fine’s wife, Laurie AP file photo Fine, apparently acknowledged to Davis she knew about the Former Syracuse basketball assistant coach Bernie Fine is dropping a defamation lawsuit against ESPN. molestation he alleged.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Kingsbury: No reason to slow offenses

By RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press NEW YORK – Unless it can be shown that up-tempo offenses lead to more injuries, Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury sees no reason to slow down the game with rule changes.

Kingsbury is heading into his first season with the Red Raiders after being Texas A&M’s offensive coordinator last season. He has been a part of some of college football’s most prolific offenses as a quarterback at Texas Tech under coach Mike Leach from 1998 to 2002 and as a coach with the Aggies and Houston.

Last year, Kingsbury helped A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel

win the Heisman Trophy and set numerous Southeastern Conference records.

Alabama coach Nick Saban and Arkansas coach Bret Bielema are among those who have suggested the NCAA consider tweaking the rules to limit how quickly offens- Kliff es can run plays and Kingsbury allow defenses more time to substitute players.

“I would have to see some scientific or statistical information showing an increase in injuries, because to me right now it’s just talk,” Kingsbury told The Associated Press in an interview at a Man-

hattan hotel. “You want me to play slower, well, OK, you need to get smaller, less strong defensive linemen. To me, it’s asking to do that.

“Stop recruiting these beasts up front and we won’t run as many plays.”

From Oregon to Texas A&M to West Virginia, fast-paced spread offenses that run upward of 75 plays a game are all the rage in college football. Scoring reached record levels last season, even in the SEC, which has prided itself on its stingy defenses during a run of seven straight national championships.

Eighteen of 124 FBS teams averaged at least 80 plays a game in 2012. Marshall led with 92.8. Texas A&M ranked eighth with 83.5.

Alabama, which uses a more tra-

ditional pro-style offense and only picks up the pace when it has to at the end of a game or half, ranked 114th at 66.3 plays a game. Bielema’s Wisconsin team averaged 68.2 plays a game (99th in the nation) in 2012.

Kingsbury said the style of play, especially in the Big 12, where half the teams averaged at least 76 plays a game, has changed what it means to play good defense.

“There are some really good players in the Big 12 on defenses, but yards per game is through the roof. That’s just the nature of the game,” he said. “If Alabama or LSU or those guys faced these offenses all the time, each and every week, it would be different. That’s just a fact.”

The ASSOCIATED PRESS PARK RIDGE – The Big Ten female athlete of the year award no longer is named for the Olympic track star from Wisconsin who later acknowledged working as a prostitute.

Big Ten spokesman Scott Chipman said Tuesday that Suzy Favor Hamilton’s name was removed from the award after discussions between the league and Wisconsin.

Minnesota hockey player Amanda Kessel was named the winner last week. Kessel was also the national player of the year after leading the Gophers to an undefeated season and a second straight NCAA title.

Favor competed in the Olympics in 1992, 1996 and 2000. The Smoking Gun website in December first reported that Favor Hamilton had worked as a $600-an-hour escort in Las Vegas. She described it as a “coping mechanism” tied to depression and other personal issues.

Favor Hamilton, 44, was the Big Ten’s female athlete of the year three straight times beginning in 1988 and one of the most celebrated athletes at Wisconsin. She won seven U.S. national titles, her last in 1999.

Before her double life was revealed, she had been hired for speaking engagements at Disneyland and was pitchwoman for the Wisconsin Potato and Vegetable Growers Association.

Favor Hamilton said in a series of tweets last year that her work as an escort provided an “escape” for her.

“I do not expect people to understand,” she tweeted. “But the reasons for doing this made sense to me at the time and were very much related to depression.”

Favor Hamilton told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel in 2012 that she dealt with anxiety, an eating disorder and struggled with postpartum depression after the birth of her daughter.

Brad Spoeth tees off on the 11th hole Tuesday at Marengo Ridge. He finished second to Alex Ferguson in the boys senior division.

Karney wins junior title • MCJGA Continued from page C1 So instead of using a driver on the par-5 hole, he switched to a 3-wood for more accuracy.

His approach led to making par on the hole and securing his first MCJGA win.

“I just wanted to play it safe,” he said. “I just wanted to get that round in and keep this score. It’s pretty cool.”

The boys junior division also was close at the top. Cameron Karney, 13, earned his first MCJGA title with a 77, a stroke ahead of Jake Grabner (78) and two ahead of Billy Walker (79). They were the only three to break 80 in their division.

Karney escaped with the one-stroke victory with solid play in his final nine holes. He birdied two holes during his round, which helped him to a one-stroke lead heading into the final hole. After pitching

onto the green, he found himself 24 feet from the cup. Make it and be victorious or miss it and force a playoff.

“I just looked it down and swung,” he said. “It was one of the biggest shots of the day for me, and I sank the 24-footer.

“This is really big for me because it was downhill, too, and if I didn’t make it, it would have rolled all the way past.”

Bailey Bostler and Larisa Luloff each carded a 44 for nine holes, and Bostler won a playoff for a victory in the girls senior division. They were followed by Gillian Young, who shot a 51.

Lauren Kalamaras took home the junior division title after carding a 46. Sophia Archos (53) and Kailey Lindholm (59) rounded out the top three.

The next MCJGA event is the Billy Vahldieck McHenry County Junior Amateur on July 10 and 11 at Boone Creek in Bull Valley.

Program’s future bright • HUNTLEY Continued from page C1 For Scalise, whose son has one more year remaining in his Huntley playing career, purchasing reserve seating not only guarantees his family will be there to see Jake Scalise play this season, but that they’ll likely remain fans even after he graduates.

After last year’s success under Hart, Scalise believes only

bigger things are coming for the Red Raiders – and he plans to be there to watch the program grow.

“This could be the start of something really special and [the reserve seating] makes us feel like we’re part of it,” he said. “So even though my son is a senior, I plan to keep following Huntley football the next year, the year after that. So you definitely feel like you’re buying into what they’re doing.”

WHITE SOX 5, ORIOLES 2

Sox put brakes on O’s Home runs by Dunn, Gillaspie back Danks The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – For one night, the White Sox had all facets of their game working together.

Adam Dunn and Conor Gillaspie homered while Gordon Beckham had three hits, John Danks pitched into the eighth inning and the Sox snapped the Baltimore Orioles’ fourgame winning streak with a 5-2 victory Tuesday night.

Gillaspie’s homer snapped a 1-1 tie in the sixth, and Dunn’s 22nd, a two-run homer in the seventh, gave the Sox a 5-1 lead. Addison Reed pitched a scoreless ninth for his 22nd save in 26 attempts.

The Sox ended a five-game losing streak and avoided falling a season-worst 16 games below .500.

And the Sox managed to win by playing the kind of clean game they haven’t for most of the season.

The Sox made no errors, their bullpen was solid, the pitching was strong, and the offense produced. It all added up to a needed victory against one of baseball’s hottest teams.

“It’s nice,” Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “We’ve had some tough nights here the last few.”

The Sox have lost 23 of their past 32 and are in last place in the AL Central.

THIS DATE IN BASEBALL July 3 1912 — Rube Marquard of the New York Giants raised his season record to 19-0 with a 2-1 victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers. His winning streak ended five days later against the Cubs.

Next for the Sox Baltimore at Sox, 6:10 p.m.

Wednesday, CSN, AM-670

Danks (2-5), who earned his first win since beating Oakland on June 8, allowing two runs and six hits and seven innings with four strikeouts, knows what kind of hole the Sox have dug for themselves.

“We know how good we are. We know we’ve got a [heck] of a road ahead of us.

We did it to ourselves,” Danks said. “But at the same time, we know how capable we are of going on a run. We just hope that we’re able to do it starting now. We know we’re running out of time.”

Baltimore took a 1-0 lead with one out in the third when Brian Roberts hit his first home run of the season after coming off the disabled list Sunday. Roberts’ homer, on Danks’ first pitch of the atbat, was his first since April 13, 2011, against the Yankees.

That was all the production Baltimore got off the Sox until a run in the eighth.

The Sox’s offense gave Danks more than he needed.

The Sox tied the score in

the bottom of the fourth on Beckham’s one-out single to left. The Sox took a 2-1 lead on Gillaspie’s one-out homer in the sixth.

The Sox scored three times in the seventh, capped by Dunn’s 427-foot, two-run homer. The homer was Dunn’s 428th of his career, passing Mike Piazza for 45th all time, and gave the Sox a 5-1 lead on the second of two homers off Jason Hammel (7-5).

Tuesday’s game capped a busy day for the Orioles, who acquired starting pitcher Scott Feldman and catcher Steve Clevenger from the Cubs for starter Jake Arrieta, reliever Pedro Strop, and two international signing bonus slots. Feldman, who signed a one-year deal with the Cubs last offseason and is 7-6 with a 3.46 ERA, is expected to start Wednesday for the Orioles.

Notes: The Sox signed 16-year-old Dominican outfielder Micker Adolfo Zapata to a contract that included a $1.6 million signing bonus, the largest in team history for an international signing. ... The Sox appointed former slugger Jim Thome to a position as special assistant to general manager Rick Hahn. Thome, who last played for Baltimore in 2012, will work with players at all levels throughout the organization.

Hunter had four singles and Miguel Cabrera hit a three-run home run, his 26th, as the Tigers snapped a threegame losing streak.

Yankees 7, Twins 3: At Minneapolis, Robinson Cano homered for the third straight game, and Phil Hughes gave up one run on six hits in seven innings, lifting New York over Minnesota.

Mariners 9, Rangers 2: At Arlington, Texas, Kendrys Morales homered twice and tied a career high with six RBIs to lead Seattle past Texas.

Rays 8, Astros 0: At Houston,

David Price pitched three-hit ball for seven innings in his return from the disabled list, and Desmond Jennings homered and drove in four runs as Tampa Bay beat Houston.

Indians 6, Royals 5: At Kansas City, Mo., Carlos Santana and Asdrubal Cabrera each drove in a pair of runs, and Cleveland took advantage of some wild pitching to beat Kansas City.

NATIONAL LEAGUE Phillies 3, Pirates 1: At Pittsburgh, Jonathan Pettibone pitched neatly into the sixth inning, and Philadelphia snapped Pittsburgh’s ninegame winning streak.

Brewers 4, Nationals 0: At Washington, Stephen Strasburg had hitters flailing at curveballs for seven scoreless innings, getting all eight of his strikeouts with the same pitch in a magnificent outing that was wasted when Milwaukee scored off Washington’s bullpen.

Braves 11, Marlins 3: At Atlanta, Chris Johnson’s tworun, go-ahead double was the big hit in a four-run sixth inning that helped Atlanta to a win over Miami.

The Braves set a season high with 16 hits and matched their high for runs.

INTERLEAGUE Red Sox 4, Padres 1: At Boston, Brandon Snyder hit a bases-loaded double and John Lackey struck out six over eight strong innings for Boston in a win over slumping San Diego.

Bailey allows one batter to reach on walk in 7th • NO-HITTER Continued from page C1 “Every dog has its day twice, I guess,” Bailey said. “It felt good to do it front of the Cincinnati fans.”

The last pitcher to throw a no-hitter and then another before anyone else in the majors accomplished the feat was Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan, according to STATS. Baseball’s career strikeout king did it for the California Angels on Sept. 28, 1974,

against Minnesota, and June 1, 1975, vs. Baltimore.

Bailey grew up in Texas, just like Ryan, and wears No. 34 in tribute to his boyhood idol.

Justin Verlander, Mark Buehrle and Roy Halladay are the only other active pitchers with a pair of no-hitters. Halladay, of course, threw one of his in the postseason.

Bailey walked Gregor Blanco leading off the seventh, the only Giants batter to reach base. First baseman Joey Votto

alertly threw out Blanco as he tried to advance from second to third on a soft one-hopper that otherwise could have become an infield single for Buster Posey.

“Joey had a great heads-up play,” Bailey said. “I was almost a little late getting to the bag.”

With 27,509 fans on their feet chanting “Homer! Homer!” Bailey finished it off in the ninth.

He jumped to glove Brandon Crawford’s high comebacker, struck out Tony Abreu and re-

tired Blanco on a grounder to third baseman Todd Frazier.

“Going into the eighth and ninth I just said, ‘Why the [heck] not?’ Here we go again,” Bailey said.

When Votto caught the throw for the final out, Bailey raised both arms in triumph, reminiscent of that grand moment in Pittsburgh in September, then hugged catcher Ryan Hanigan.

Teammates poured onto the field to celebrate and doused Bailey with a red sports drink.

NEW YORK – A Major League Baseball umpire was recently dismissed for what was believed to be the first known drug ouster among umps, two people familiar with the situation have told The Associated Press.

MLB announced on June 14 that Brian Runge was no longer on the staff and that a Triple-A umpire had been promoted, but didn’t give a reason. Only once since 2000 had such a change been made in midseason, and that was because of an injury.

The two people said Runge failed at least one drug test, then reached an agreement so he could remain on the umpire roster. When he failed to comply with those terms, he was released.

The people spoke on the condition of anonymity because MLB didn’t publicly say why Runge was gone.

It could not be independently determined by the AP what drug was involved.

Joe West, president of the World Umpires Association – the union representing umps – declined comment Tuesday.

The AP was unable to contact Runge through the union or other umpires.

Like players, umpires are subject to random drug tests. Oakland pitcher Bartolo Colon, Philadelphia catcher Carlos Ruiz and San Diego catcher Yasmani Grandal all missed time this season because of drug suspensions imposed last year.

In addition, 26 players have been suspended this year under the minor league drug program.

Umpire Brian Runge was dismissed recently because of a drug violation, according to two Associated Press sources. didn’t work in the majors after Aug. 30 while dealing with a knee injury. He called spring training games this year and later did several Triple-A games, but hadn’t been back in the big leagues during the regular season.

Runge joined the MLB umpiring staff in 1999. He worked playoffs three times and last year’s All-Star game.

He is a member of MLB’s first three-generation family of umpires. Grandfather Ed was an American League umpire from 1954 to 1970 and worked the World Series three times; father Paul called National League games from 1973 to 1997 and did the World Series four times before becoming the NL’s executive director of umpires.

Brian Runge was behind the plate for a pair of no-hitters last year – Philip Humber’s perfect game and the combo effort by six Seattle pitchers.

He also was at third base for Matt Cain’s perfect game

Minor league infielder Torreyes dealt to Astros • CUBS Continued from page C1 On top of the draft slot bonus the Cubs got from Baltimore, they also received two draft slot bonuses from the Astros for minor league infielder Ronald Torreyes.

Hoyer said that combined, the Cubs acquired $963,000 for their international allotment.

“This is an international class with a lot of talent,” Hoyer said. “Adding pool money was important and adding big arms was most important.”

At 27 years old, Arrieta, a former fifth-round pick of Baltimore, has struggled. In parts of four big league seasons, he is 20-25 with a 5.46 ERA. Hoyer hopes Arrieta can turn around his career similar to Travis Wood. Arrieta will report to Triple-A Iowa.

“Both guys have big arms, but it’s never easy to give up a guy that’s performed well for you,” Hoyer said.

Strop, 27, is coming off a career year but he has struggled this season, posting a 7.25 ERA in 29 appearances, he gives the Cubs’ bullpen another great power arm.

The key for Strop will be limiting his walks (15 in 221/3 this year). Adding younger arms is vital for the Cubs

because of a farm system that is void of impact pitchers in the higher levels.

“I’m not sure if the fact there was a trade, it will open up trades for other teams,” Hoyer said.

The Cubs’ willingness to part with international pool money so they could move Marmol without outright releasing him suggests they desperately wanted the Marmol era to end while also getting a serviceable player in return.

Should the Cubs secure more potential for players like Matt Garza, Kevin Gregg, Nate Schierholtz and others, their rebuilding plan gets a significant boost.

The Cubs have a knack for flipping offseason free agent acquisitions for young talent.

“The way we budget, we were able to get significant financial savings,” Hoyer said of the Marmol trade. “[Guerrier] is a guy that with a change of scenery gets him back to where he was before.”

Tuesday at Wimbledon

WIMBLEDON

Lisicki keeps winning to reach semis

By EDDIE PELLS The Associated Press LONDON – If Sabine Lisicki had a letdown after defeating Serena Williams, it didn’t show.

If Lisicki is penciling herself into the Wimbledon final, she isn’t saying.

Showing no drop-off after her dramatic victory over Williams, the 23rd-seeded Lisicki returned Tuesday and made quick work of a much less intimidating opponent, 46th-ranked Kaia Kanepi, dispatching her, 6-3, 6-3, in 65 minutes to advance to her second

career Wimbledon semifinal.

“I was ready today,” Lisicki said. “I knew from the past, out of experience, that I needed to make the switch quickly to be ready, and that’s what I did.”

Indeed. Lisicki opened the match by breaking Kanepi’s serve in the first game and didn’t look back in that set. In the second, she had one hiccup – a game in which she double-faulted three times to drop a break and fall behind 2-1.

She broke back right away, however, and won four of the next five games to close the match.

Now, the 23-year-old German

finds herself in the Wimbledon semifinals for the second time in three years. Her win against Williams made her the new, odds-on favorite to win the title and even pushed Britain’s favorite tennis player, Andy Murray, off the back pages of a couple London tabloids.

All of which means almost nothing – at least to hear Lisicki tell it.

“Match by match,” she said.

“Did that from the start and will continue to do that.”

Her next opponent is No. 4 Agnieszka Radwanska, who defeated No. 6 Li Na, 7-6 (5), 4-6, 6-2, in

a match that took more than 3½ hours to complete and included two rain delays, an injury timeout and a final game that lasted more than 10 minutes.

The other semifinal will pit No. 15 Marion Bartoli of France against No. 20 Kirsten Flipkens of Belgium. Flipkens beat eighth-seeded Petra Kvitova, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, to knock the last remaining Grand Slam tournament winner out of the draw. Flipkens won her first career Grand Slam quarterfinal, continuing a comeback from health problems that dropped her to No. 262 last year.

LONDON – A look at Wimbledon on Tuesday: Women’s quarterfinal results: No. 4 Agnieszka Radwanska beat No. 6 Li Na, 7-6 (5), 4-6, 6-2; No. 8 Petra Kvitova lost to No. 20 Kirsten Flipkens, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4; No. 15 Marion Bartoli beat No. 17 Sloane Stephens, 6-4, 7-5; No. 23 Sabine Lisicki beat Kaia Kanepi, 6-3, 6-3.

Stat of the day: 14 – Consecutive points Stephens lost on her serve at one point in her match.

Quote of the day: “The people believing in me, I can count on one hand.” – Flipkens, on her shrinking group of supporters after blood clots in her legs sent her to No. 262 in 2012.

Men’s quarterfinals Wednesday: No. 1 Novak Djokovic vs. No. 7 Tomas Berdych; No. 4 David Ferrer vs. No. 8 Juan Martin del Potro; No. 24 Jerzy Janowicz vs. Lukasz Kubot; No. 2 Andy Murray vs. Fernando Verdasco.

Bruins center Patrice Bergeron talks with reporters in the team’s locker room Tuesday in Boston. Bergeron played through multiple injuries during the Stanley Cup Final against the Blackhawks.

BOSTON BRUINS

Bergeron’s painful memories No surgery needed for injuries suffered during Cup Final

By HOWARD ULMAN The Associated Press BOSTON – Torn rib cartilage in Game 4.

A broken rib in Game 5.

A separated shoulder in Game 6.

Patrice Bergeron played through it all in the Stanley Cup final. And that doesn’t include the collapsed lung that the Boston Bruins star learned about after skating up and down the TD Garden ice in the last game, trying in vain to keep the season going.

“I don’t know if there’s pride,” Bergeron said Tuesday. “Some people would say it’s stupid.”

He was in the hospital June 26 when his teammates met reporters for the final time, two days after the season ended with a 3-2 loss to the Blackhawks in the sixth game.

So Tuesday, he stood at a podium in the Bruins locker room, hands in the pockets of his pink shorts, and matter-of-factly recited his medical record.

At least his legs were spared.

“It’s all good,” Bergeron said. “I’m 100 percent [in the] lower body.”

The stitches sewn at the end of his right eyebrow while he sat on the bench in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals against the New York Rangers were gone.

The red scar on his nose was still visible from the fight he had with Evgeni Malkin in Game 1 of Boston’s four-game sweep of the Pittsburgh Penguins in the conference finals.

His spleen checked out OK after an ambulance took him from the United Center during Game 5 of the last round in Chicago.

“There’s a lot of really tough guys on our team, and I don’t feel like I should take all the praise.”

Patrice Bergeron Bruins alternate captain

He hadn’t been diagnosed with a concussion since the fourth of his career sidelined him for six games in April.

But moving on, Patrice, how about next season?

No problem.

Bergeron said he doesn’t need surgery and should be ready for the start of training camp.

“I just need,” he said, “I guess, a couple weeks.”

Any of those injuries would have sidelined players in other sports. But Bergeron, one of the NHL’s best all-around players, insists he did nothing special to help the Bruins play for their second Stanley Cup title in three years.

“You put everything on the line to help your team. That’s basically what I did. I’m 100 percent confident everyone else would have done the same thing,” the Bruins’ alternate captain said. “There’s a lot of really tough guys on our team, and I don’t feel like I should take all the praise.”

Bergeron has spent all of his nine NHL seasons with the Bruins. Without him, they likely would have been eliminated in the first round when they trailed the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-1 with less than 11 min-

utes left in regulation of an intense Game 7.

He tied it with 51 seconds remaining in the third period, then won it with his goal at 6:05 of overtime.

He scored another overtime winner in Game 3 against Pittsburgh. Then he had two goals – and the first since his rash of injuries – in Game 4 against the Hawks.

But that was the game in which the center tore rib cartilage. Early in Game 5, he was hit in the ribs and suffered a crack on the left side. Doctors told him the only way he could play in Game 6 was to get a nerve block that would freeze the area. So he had one – and needed other pain-killing shots during the game.

Bergeron also separated his right shoulder in the first period but played the rest of the way. As the game went on, he could feel his energy fading. When it ended, he endured the tradition of shaking hands with his opponents and went to the locker room.

From there, Bergeron went right to Massachusetts General Hospital, where a puncture was found in the lung.

“There’s an X-ray machine [in the locker room], but they couldn’t tell, really,” he said. “It wasn’t clear enough for them.

They wanted to make sure and, luckily enough, they made the right decision because I went there right away and they found out that my lung had collapsed.”

General manager Peter Chiarelli said he thought the lung was punctured after the game.

“If it had happened during the game, he would have felt the pain and then he wouldn’t have been able to play,” Chiarelli said last week.

By SAMUEL PETREQUIN The Associated Press LONDON – Kirsten Flipkens was diagnosed with life-threatening blood clots in both her legs just more than a year ago. On Tuesday, the Belgian reached the Wimbledon semifinals.

“It’s amazing, it’s more than a dream come true to be in the semifinals of a Grand Slam, it’s ridiculous,” the 20thranked Flipkens said. “Last year I did not even get into the qualifying at Wimbledon.

I was 260th in the world and today I am in the semifinals of Wimbledon. It cannot be better. I still cannot believe it. I am so happy I cannot imagine myself waking up. “ A former Wimbledon and U.S. Open junior winner, Flipkens upset former Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, to advance. Playing in her first Grand Slam quarterfinal, she had only five unforced errors in a gutsy performance.

She fell face first on the court and kissed the grass after closing out the match with an ace.

“I never expected this to happen in my life,” she said.

“Being in the semifinals of a Grand Slam, of the biggest tournament throughout the year, it has no words.”

It was after a long flight in which Flipkens felt the acute pain in her legs and was diagnosed with her condition in April 2012. As a result, she missed two months of competition and her ranking

dropped to No. 262.

“Maybe I start to know what’s important in life,” said Flipkens, who wears glasses when she plays. “I think winning or losing a tennis match doesn’t make a big difference.

I mean, if you lose, you have a next tournament next week, so ... I just start to see things in perspective.”

Flipkens, who had never advanced past the third round at Wimbledon before this year, is clearly on an ascending path. Now training with former world No. 1 and fellow Belgian Kim Clijsters, she reached the final at Rosmalen at her Wimbledon warm-up tournament after losing in the Australian Open fourth round to Maria Sharapova.

Thanks to her good run, she is now boasting a No. 20 ranking.

“I’ve had so many injuries,” she said. “I was a world champion junior. The year after, I had a really bad back injury. All doctors said my career would have been over normally. But I’m just the kind of person that doesn’t like to break, and I keep on fighting back every time.”

After downing the seventh-ranked Kvitova under the retractable roof of the Centre Court, Flipkens paid tribute to Clijsters, who had shared her emotions on Twitter after the win.

“Still drying my eyes :-)) So proud of how @FlipperKF handled the big occasion for the first time!” Clijsters wrote.

NHL FREE AGENCY

UP TO

Lecavalier boosts then bolts free-agent class

By LARRY LAGE The Associated Press Vincent Lecavalier, Danny Briere and Ilya Bryzgalov have injected some more intrigue into NHL free agency.

So much so that Lecavalier kicked off the annual signing period Tuesday, three days before it officially began, by signing a multiyear contract with the Philadelphia Flyers.

The deal reflects the impact the addition of several veterans who had their contracts bought out have made in boosting interest in a free-agent crop that lacked star power a year after Ryan Suter and Zach Parise created a buzz by hitting the market and landing in Minne-

sota.

Lecavalier was able to shop around early because he was bought out.

“The depth isn’t what it has been in past years, but there are some very good players available,” Nashville Predators general manager David Poile said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press on Tuesday. “It’s a different situation, though, with the lower cap, so it’ll be interesting to see what this crop of free agents gets both in terms of salary and years.”

The NHL’s salary cap will be $64.3 million for the 2013-14 season, a total significantly less than the $70.2 million in contracts teams could have on the

books during the lockout-delayed season.

Lecavalier unexpectedly became available after the Tampa Bay Lightning bought out the contract of their 33-year-old captain last week. The Flyers did the same by cutting ties with Briere, a 35-year-old forward, and Bryzgalov, a 33-yearold goaltender.

Potential free agents such as forward Mike Ribeiro, who appears to have passed on re-signing with Washington, or other players who weren’t welcomed back will hit the market Wednesday for the first of a two-day interview period before any deals can be signed.

“It’s great to have players out there,” Detroit Red Wings

coach Mike Babcock told AP, “but you have to have money to spend.”

With Lecavalier now off the market, Briere and Bryzgalov come into full focus. For now, though, their former team – Philadelphia – has secured the most marketable player out there.

The Dallas Stars were interested in Lecavalier, as well, but as general manager Jim Nill had indicated: “So are probably 28 other teams. It’ll come down to money and fit.”

Lecavalier, who also spoke with Boston over the weekend, didn’t mesh with Tampa Bay’s plans, or at least his contract didn’t with seven years and $45 million remaining on it.

It told me that a witch cast a spell on him and he was trapped in a rock. To break the spell somebody had to sing this, “Make the spell break away,” five times. So I sang and I freed the person in the rock.

Alan, 6th grade I picked it up and it said, “Put me down!” I dropped it and it said, “Oweee! That hurt!” I told the rock I was sorry and asked it where it came from. It said it came from the beach.

So I returned the talking rock to the beach and I never saw a talking rock again.

Neal, 4th grade “Excuse me, what did you say?”

I asked the rock. “Just listen!” the rock insisted. Then, out of the bush behind me jumped my friend Jimmy with a “Boo!” I couldn’t believe it. I actually fell for a talking rock!

The rock said,“Pick me up and I’ll tell you a secret.” So I did and he told me how his mother left him to starve and that she was 120 years old. I took him home and it turned out that I had his mom in my rock collection. We all lived happily ever after.

Kayle, 6th grade I was so freaked out that I stood still for about one minute. Then the rock asked,” Do you know the way to the planet named Rocky Road?”

I said no and the moment I said no he disappeared.

“Okay, I will — if you let me have a piece of you,” I agreed.

So from that day, that opal stood magnificently in a museum.

Bryce 4th grade One day I was walking down the lane and suddenly a voice called out to me. It was coming from a rock and it screamed, “Help!

ON THE FRINGE Doug Ferguson The good news for LPGA Tour commissioner Mike Whan is that his sport is dominating the golf conversation, which is rare.

For the past two days, it seems like every time Whan turns on TV is he hearing about Inbee Park, and that’s how it should be. When she completed a masterful week of putting and precision at Sebonack Golf Club, the 24-year-old South Korean had won the U.S. Women’s Open for her third straight major this year.

Next up is a chance for Park to do what no golfer has done in the history of the royal and ancient game – win four professional majors in a single season. Adding to the moment is the venue – the Women’s British Open will be at St. Andrews, the home of golf. Any other year, the golf world would be buzzing over the prospect of a Grand Slam.

But not this one. Because for such an historic occasion, there is way too much confusion.

It was Whan who decided for noble reasons in 2010 to elevate The Evian Championship in France to major championship status starting in 2013, giving the LPGA Tour five majors for the first time in its 63-year history.

Just his luck, it turned out to be the year one of his players had a shot at the Grand Slam.

Except that winning four majors is not really a Grand Slam when there are five on the schedule.

Is it?

“If you would have asked me as a golf nut about five majors, I would have said, ‘It doesn’t feel right to me,’” Whan said Tuesday morning. “Then you become commissioner of the LPGA Tour.

Do you or don’t you? If you don’t ... your job here is to grow the opportunities for women in the game worldwide. We don’t get the exposure anywhere near the men’s game except for three or four times a year, and those are around the majors.

“Jump forward to 2013,” he said. “The fact I can turn on the TV every night and the discussion is on the LPGA and five majors and what does this mean ... the world views this as frustrating.

In my own silly world, this is the most attention we’ve had in a long time.”

Golf always has been about four majors, at least it seems that way.

It dates to 1930 when Bobby Jones swept the biggest championships of his era – the British Open, British Amateur, U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur. George Trevor of the New York Sun referred to this

Inbee Park watches her tee shot on the third hole during the final round of the U.S. Women’s Open on Sunday in Southampton, N.Y. Women’s golf has five majors for the first time this year, and Park has won the first three. feat as the “impregnable quadrilateral” of golf, while O.B. Keeler of the Atlanta Journal gave it a name that didn’t require a stiff upper lip. He called it a Grand Slam, a term from contract bridge that meant winning all 13 tricks.

The spirit of that term is a clean sweep, whether it’s four, five or 13.

Arnold Palmer gets credit for creating the modern version of the Grand Slam in 1960 when he won the Masters and U.S. Open and was on his way to play the British Open for the first time. He was traveling with Pittsburgh sports writer Bob Drum, who was lamenting that professional golf had led to the demise of what Jones had achieved in 1930. That’s when Palmer suggested a new Grand Slam by winning the four professional majors.

Comparisons between men’s and women’s golf are never easy, especially in the majors.

The PGA Tour and European Tour don’t own any of the four majors that its players have made famous. The press never bought into the notion of making The Players Championship a fifth major. It was Thomas Bonk of The Los Angeles Times who once wrote that there were “Three Stooges, Twelve Days of Christmas, Seven Dwarfs and four major championships.”

Enough said.

The LPGA Tour now has eight majors in its official history, including the du Maurier Classic, the Titleholders and the Western Open. Babe Zaharias is the last player to win three straight majors on the calendar, but that was in 1950 when that’s all there were.

There was a five-year stretch in the 1970s when there were only two LPGA majors.

And now there are five?

Women’s golf is not as steeped in tradition. More importantly, its pockets have never been very deep. That’s why the LPGA Cham-

pionship, which dates to 1955, essentially took over what had been a regular tour event in Rochester, N.Y. The PGA of America doesn’t have a women’s version of a major because, among other reasons, the LPGA Tour has its own teaching and club professional division.

Tradition is the Kraft Nabisco, the only major played on the same course (Rancho Mirage) where the winner jumps into the pond. But it was a regular LPGA Tour event for 11 years before it was designated a major. The Women’s British Open was first played in 1976, became part of the LPGA schedule in 1994 and did not become a major until 2001.

And now the LPGA has The Evian Championship, which only started in 2000 and now is supposed to be a major, right up there with the U.S. Women’s Open.

Oddly enough, Park is the defending champion. The field will be similar. The course is the same.

And now it’s a major.

“Sometimes it’s hard to fit into the box how we compare history,” Whan said. “I stopped seeing asterisks in LeBron James from playing in the 3-pointer era.

You could talk about no-hitters and the DH. I lived in the hockey world, and they make small rules changes. Sports moves forward.

The asterisk doesn’t last. It’s the new normal.

“If Inbee wins the British Open and it’s 2011, the media writes a bunch of stories and for the next seven months, ‘See you guys next season.’ Now if she wins, there will be more attention on The Evian Championship than even Evian could ever have fathomed,” he said. “It could be good or it could be bad.”

But at least they’re talking.

And for women’s golf, that’s never a bad thing.

DON’T BAKE,

CELEBRATE

By ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press

ust because summer seems to scream for pie doesn’t mean we are eager to crank up the oven. This is especially true at the Fourth of July, when we’d rather focus on the grill and preparations for fireworks.

All of which is why we are especially thankful for the delicious ease of icebox pies.

No baking – in fact, barely any cooking at all – is needed to create our sweet, rich raspberry coconut icebox pie. It blends fresh raspberries with a whipped cream-cream cheese-coconut milk filling that is cool and satisfying.

And to help you really get a jump on the festivities, this pie can be prepared up to two days in advance.

A corn and black bean salad will be the hit of your Fourth of July picnic this year.

Keep the oven off this Fourth of July with a coconut and berry pie

Raspberry Coconut Icebox Pie AP photo

Raspberry Coconut Icebox Pie Start to finish: 2½ hours (30 minutes active) Servings: 8 For the crust: 1 cup toasted shredded coconut 10 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed 4 tablespoons butter, melted

For the filling: 1/4-ounce packet gelatin 2 tablespoons water 1/2 cup unsweetened fruit juice (or water) 8 ounces cream cheese, softened 1/2 cup cream of coconut 1/2 cup raspberry jam 1 cup heavy cream 2 cups fresh raspberries 1/2 cup toasted shredded coconut

To make the crust, in a medium bowl mix together the coconut, chocolate sandwich cookies and butter. Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch pie pan and press it evenly across the bottom and up the sides. Set aside.

To make the filling, in a small glass dissolve the gelatin in the 2 tablespoons of water.

In a small saucepan over mediumhigh, bring the juice to a boil. Stir in the dissolved gelatin, then remove the pan

from the heat and set aside.

In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the cream cheese and cream of coconut. Add the raspberry jam and gelatin and mix until smooth.

In another medium bowl, use an electric mixer with clean beaters to whip the cream until it holds medium peaks.

Working in 2 batches, gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Gently fold in the raspberries,

reserving a few for garnish. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pie shell.

Top with the toasted coconut and the reserved raspberries. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Lemonade chilled with a patriotic glow If you’ve never tasted fresh lemonade, you don’t know what you’re missing. It’s just so much more vivid than the supermarket stuff, much more about the lemon and less about the sugar.

True, juicing the lemons can be a pain, but the process becomes very near painless if you start by softening the lemons in the microwave for 30 seconds. Then all you have to do is add sugar syrup – a mixture of sugar and water, heated until the sugar is dissolved – and some cold water. Done.

In short, it’s hard to top fresh lemonade all by itself. Still, for those so inclined, there are plenty of ways to gild this lily. You can infuse the sugar syrup with fresh herbs. You can add seltzer.

You can combine it with other fruit juices, including cranberry, apple and pomegranate. Or – and here is the heart of today’s recipe – you can glorify it with

EVERYDAY DINNERS Sara Moulton flavor-packed ice cubes.

My favorite ice cubes for lemonade (or iced tea) are pureed fruit cubes.

Almost any fruit will work. Just puree it, pour the puree into ice cube trays and freeze them. The right tool for this job is a blender, which purees the fruit more completely than a food processor or an immersion blender. Of course, you can still use those other tools if they’re the only ones you have at hand.

By the way, if you want to get all fancy, you’re welcome to strain the puree before you freeze it, though the gain in smoothness also will mean a loss in fiber.

In celebration of the Fourth of July,

we’ll dress up our lemonade with three different kinds of cubes – watermelon, coconut and blueberry for red, white and blue. Holiday aesthetics and electrifying flavor aside, this drink is almost absurdly healthy. Every glass contains a half-cup each of blueberries and watermelon.

By the way, I used to think watermelon was a loser, nutritionally – all sugar and no substance. I was wrong. Watermelon happens to be an excellent source of vitamin C and a good source of A, as well as lycopene, potassium and magnesium. And calorie-wise, it’s very modest.

A full cup of diced watermelon clocks in at 46 calories.

There’s no confusion about the virtue of blueberries, which are packed with antioxidants. They’re also a good source of vitamin C and fiber.

10 ways to tart up a basic burger

By ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press

W

hether you’re grilling a standard beef burger, a bison patty, a chicken breast or even a humble portobello mushroom cap, it’s time to move beyond the basic adornments of ketchup and a slice of cheese. And adding pickles and tomatoes – even artisanal and heirloom specimens – doesn’t count.

Sriracha sauce Pickled jalapenos Pepper jack cheese Pepperoni Freshly ground Sichuan peppercorns

Peppers add pop to your July 4 potato salad

By ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press One variety of pepper just isn’t enough to get this potato salad ready for your July Fourth celebration. So we upped it to three – black pepper, cayenne pepper and roasted red peppers – each adding their own distinct flavor.

And don’t worry, the bite of black and cayenne peppers are tamed by the sweet roasted red peppers and the sour cream dressing.

Want to add fourth and fifth varieties? Mix in some diced mild Peppadew peppers (tangy, but not much heat)

and banana peppers (sweet and crunchy).

For a crunchy contrast, you even could add a sixth with a diced fresh green bell pepper.

Three-Pepper Barbecue Potato Salad Start to finish: 1 hour (15 minutes active) Servings: 8 2 pounds red potatoes, cubed 1 tablespoon cider vinegar 1/2 cup sour cream 1/2 cup barbecue sauce 1 teaspoon chili powder 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon ground black

pepper 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste 12-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained, patted dry and chopped 4 scallions, chopped 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese Salt, to taste Place the potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover them by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are just tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Drain the potatoes, then spread them on a rimmed baking sheet to cool. Sprinkle the cooling potatoes with the vinegar, then refrigerate

for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine the sour cream, barbecue sauce, chili powder, garlic powder, black pepper and cayenne pepper.

Stir in the roasted red peppers, scallions and cheddar.

When the potatoes are cool, gently stir them into the sour cream mixture until well coated. Season with salt. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

A roaring grill and an icy brew are almost as integral to July Fourth as fireworks. But today’s burgers and beers affairs bear little resemblance to the buffet served during our nation’s first Independence Day. America declared itself a sovereign nation with the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. Celebrations followed almost immediately, but on the first anniversary – when the new nation was embroiled in fighting to establish the freedom it had so boldly declared – the Continental Congress decided to put on a good face with a full-on party.

That first Fourth of July is believed to have taken place at City Tavern, the Philadelphia public house that hosted many a gathering of the founding fathers. Tavern chef Walter Staib says the menu likely would have been based on the recipes of British culinary authority Hannah Glasse, whose book “The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy” dictates not only every dish of the three-course dinner, but where it should be placed on the table.

Glasse’s July menu suggests the signers of the Declaration would have supped on roast turkey and fricasseed rabbit, pigeon, crawfish and lobsters. There would have been tongue and turnips and lamb testicles. And for dessert, apricot tarts and roasted apples, plums, jellies and custards.

Because Philadelphia was a major port, the meal likely also would have included delicacies from abroad, Staib says. Limes from the West Indies were used for lime curd. Exotic fruit such as mangoes, pineapples and coconuts might have been available, as well as spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, mace and vanilla. Plus, there was local seafood, such as salmon, sturgeon and oysters.

Outside the tavern and in various cities throughout the former colonies, artillery salutes, military bands and grand speeches entertained the masses, said James Heintze, librarian emeritus at American University in Washington, D.C. A newspaper account of the Philadelphia celebration reports “a grand exhibition of fireworks.”

“That very first celebration set up the components of what all future celebrations would have,” Heintze says. “It was all organized.”

Flavors deepen as ice cubes melt, so guests should drink slowly • LEMONADE Continued from page D1 Finally, they team up beautifully with lemon juice.

Thinking of a bright white fruit with which to fill out my tri-color team of ice cubes wasn’t easy. Happily, during a rummage through the cupboard I stumbled upon a can of lite coconut milk.

As everyone knows, fruit and coconut go together like fireworks and the Fourth of July.

One of the most appealing aspects of this libation is that its flavor mutates and deepens as the cubes melt

slowly in the glass.

I suggest giving the process a head start by letting the drink stand for a bit before serving, then encouraging your guests to take their time drinking. Tell them the effect will be like a kaleidoscope for the mouth.

Red, White And Blue Lemonade Start to finish: 25 minutes, plus freezing Servings: 6 3 cups cubed seeded watermelon (the redder the better) 3 cups cleaned and rinsed fresh blueberries 3/4 cup well-stirred lite

coconut milk 3/4 cup sugar 1/3 cup water 1 cup fresh lemon juice Fresh mint leaves, to garnish In a blender, puree the watermelon until it becomes liquefied.

Pour the watermelon liquid into ice cube trays (you should have enough liquid for twelve 2-tablespoon cubes). Rinse out the blender, add the blueberries and puree until the mixture is smooth.

Transfer the blueberry puree to another ice cube tray. In a third tray, divide the coconut milk between 6 cubes.

Transfer all of the trays to the freezer and freeze until solid, preferably overnight.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and water and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved.

Let cool.

In a pitcher combine 1/2 cup of the sugar syrup with the lemon juice. Add 3 cups of cold water, then taste and add additional sugar syrup if desired. Chill until ready to serve.

To serve, place 2 watermelon cubes, 2 blueberry cubes and 1 coconut cube in each of 6 rocks glasses. Top the glasses with lemonade, then garnish with mint.

Let sit for 10 or so minutes to allow the cubes to melt slightly and flavor the lemonade.

Corn and Black Bean Salad

Try a cool, sweet take on the summer sandwich buffet AP photos

By ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press The beauty of ice cream in summer is you really don’t need to do anything to it to enjoy it. A big unadorned bowl is a simple, delicious pleasure all on its own.

Still, sometimes we can’t help but tinker with perfection. So for our July Fourth celebration, we decided to take the season’s finest treat and make it even finer. We created a DIY ice cream sandwich buffet perfect for any backyard barbecue event.

And we quickly discovered the possibilities were boggling.

Start with the “bread” of the sandwiches. We’re going to assume you don’t want to bake your own cookies.

That’s fine, because there are all sorts of choices available at the grocer. And don’t hesitate to get creative. Graham crackers, slices of cake, even cinnamon buns or doughnuts can be pressed into service.

Play around with different sizes, too. Small cookies can be used for ice cream sandwich “sliders.”

And don’t forget to dress your sandwiches. Smear toppings such as fudge, caramel or peanut sauce onto the cookies (much as you would when assembling a PB&J) before adding the ice cream.

Then there are the many choices of fillings – ice cream,

frozen yogurt, sorbet, gelato, sherbet. ... We suggest serving them one of two ways.

The easiest way is to soften the frozen treats slightly so they are easily scooped and spread on the “bread.” To soften them, you can either leave them at room temperature for 10 or so minutes, or microwave them for 10 to 20 seconds.

Alternatively, select frozen treats packed in pint-sized cardboard tubs. Use a serrated knife to carefully slice each tub crosswise into four or five rounds, then arrange the rounds on a baking sheet.

Keep the rounds frozen until ready to assemble. Just don’t let the rounds sit out at room temperature too long while people are assembling their sandwiches; the ice cream will soften quickly.

We start you off with ideas for some creative combinations, but your best bet is to wander the grocery store and explore the options.

When it comes to enjoying the buffet, encourage your guests to get a little crazy.

Why sandwich just one variety of ice cream when you could combine two or more?

And assure them that creating totally over-the-top treats is not just appropriate, but expected. Try sandwiching chocolate ice cream between two whoopie pies with layers of peanut sauce and marshmallow spread, for example.

Ice Cream Sandwich Buffet For the “bread”: Graham crackers Pound cake, sliced and toasted Chocolate wafer cookies Oatmeal raisin cookies Chocolate chip cookies Molasses cookies Sugar cookies Whoopie pies For the spreads: Chocolate fudge sundae sauce Caramel sauce Butterscotch topping Fruit jams, such as raspberry or strawberry Marshmallow spread Nutella

For a Shortcake Sandwich: Spread 2 pieces of thinly sliced and toasted pound cake with strawberry jam, then fill with vanilla or strawberry ice cream.

For a Black and Red: Sandwich raspberry sorbet between chocolate wafer cookies.

For a Creamsicle: Sandwich orange sherbet between vanilla sugar cookies. Add a smear of chocolate fudge sauce, if desired.

For a S’more: Spread marshmallow topping on 2 graham crackers, then fill with rocky road or chocolate ice cream.

For Lemon Spice: Drizzle a touch of butterscotch on a soft molasses cookie, then top with lemon sorbet or sherbet, then a second molasses cookie.

For the frozen fillings: Ice cream Sorbet Frozen yogurt Sherbet Gelato

I ate egg salad sandwiches with my Grandma Lilly at various department store tea rooms a mountain of years ago. I love them still, though the kind I build today look a lot less trimmed, pale and polished. They are open-faced, perhaps with a liner of leafy greens and herbs, and topped sometimes with a crackle of nuts or seeds.

I’m inclined to bake a quick bread to use as the base for a big, creamy swipe of the savory salad: A slice of soda bread, tender inside and crusty on the edges, is my preferred surface.

steamed shrimp; 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (pimenton; whisk it into the mayonnaise mixture); 3 tablespoons diced roasted red pepper.

Fill a mixing bowl with cold water.

Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Use a slotted spoon to gently lower in the eggs, one at a time; cook for 12 minutes. Immediately remove the saucepan from the heat; use the slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to the bowl of cold water.

Place the bowl of eggs in the sink and run cold water into the bowl for 3 minutes. Lift out the eggs with the slotted spoon, pat them dry, then peel them. Cool for 10 minutes.

Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar and hot sauce, if using, in a small nonreactive bowl.

Stir in the pickle relish, then season with pepper to taste.

Place the eggs in a mixing bowl.

Use a potato masher to lightly break them into small chunks. Spoon over and fold through the mayonnaise mixture, including any optional ingredients. Transfer the egg salad to an airtight container. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

TASTE Chill out with DIY summer wine coolers PLANITNORTHWEST / PlanitNorthwest.com

By MICHELLE LOCKE The Associated Press The wine cooler has a bit of an identity problem. Is it a wine spritzer? A wine cocktail? Sangria? And what about that wild child moment in the ‘80s when it was the hottest thing on the party scene?

Luckily, this cocktail conundrum is easily solved. As Gertrude Stein might put it, wine cooler is wine spritzer is wine cocktail is sangria. And the versions being whipped up today have nothing in common with the cheap, mass-produced products of 30 years ago (which thankfully went the way of shoulder pads).

“Mixology has been raised to this new chef-like heights and wine, in a way, is the bartender’s hottest ingredient right now,” says Mike Dawson, senior editor at Wine Enthusiast. “Cutting-edge bartenders are taking these wine-based drinks to new heights, and creating these New Age coolers, along with countless variations of the sangria and classic wine cocktails like the New York Sour.”

Summer is the perfect time for wine coolers, since it’s the one time of year even the most dedicated vinophile toys with dropping a fistful of ice in a glass.

Switching to a cooler makes wine “a little bit easier to drink,” says Chad Furuta of Del Frisco’s Grille in New York. At the Grille, bartenders are making spritzers with a house white wine, mixed with ginger ale or a lemon-lime soda and served with a lemon twist or wedge.

“Whether you want to call it wine cooler or spritzer,

Wednesday, July 3, 2013 • Page D5

it really is a great summer drink,” he says.

What should you use when making your own wine coolers? Well, don’t reach for the bottom shelf wine that just doesn’t taste good, advises Cappy Sorentino, bar director of Spoonbar restaurant at the h2hotel in the wine country town of Healdsburg, Calif. On the other hand, don’t go crazy and uncork an expensive bottle of wine, either.

“It doesn’t have to be the best stuff because you’re basically using it as a base,” he says.

Look for a wine that has a fair amount of acidity to it, i.e. “yes” to sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio, “no” to chardonnay that’s spent a lot of time in oak barrels. For red wines, Spanish wines are, not surprisingly, a good choice since sangria is a Spanish invention. Tempranillo makes a good choice.

He has an interesting take on sangria, which is usually wine fortified with something a little stronger and augmented with sugar and spices. At Spoonbar, he’s using a rose wine with pisco (Peruvian brandy), plus a little sugar, some water, fresh pineapple juice, cinnamon and a touch of clove. It’s “really refreshing,” which is good for Healdsburg, where temperatures can get toasty.

Joe Campanale, beverage director of four New York City neighborhood restaurants, encourages cocktail enthusiasts to get creative by mixing up their favorite single-serving cocktail in a pitcher for a group dinner or celebration. Keep the ingredients light, he advises, as in his Blame it on the Aperol cocktail served at the dell’anima restaurant which com-

Later on, Dave called and said he was going to come back to do some other things that needed attention. I told him he was not welcome in my house and that I’m furious he would do such a thing. He apologized and said he hoped I could forgive him.

I am so angry. I no longer want to be in his company.

I also don’t like that I have to keep his behavior a secret from my sister. I haven’t told anyone, and it is keeping me up nights. Please help. – Fum-

Strategies that prevent cancer also fight recurrence Dear Dr. K: I’m a cancer survivor. Should I be following special guidelines for diet and exercise?

Dear Reader: Advances in cancer treatment and earlier detection are allowing more people to live longer after a cancer diagnosis. Today, more than 12 million Americans are cancer survivors.

Many of them look to diet and exercise to help prevent cancer recurrence, live longer or just feel better.

Recently, the American Cancer Society (ACS) reviewed and summarized the scientific evidence about the role of diet and exercise for cancer survivors. They found the same things that prevent cancer from developing in the first place also help keep it from coming back. The ACS published its findings in a report called “Nutrition and Physical Activity Guidelines for Cancer Survivors.”

The ACS found to reduce the chance of cancer return-

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff ing and increase the chance of surviving, cancer-free, after a cancer diagnosis, survivors should: • Achieve and maintain a healthy weight; • Get enough physical activity (at least 150 minutes a week); • Eat a healthy diet that emphasizes vegetables, fruits and whole grains; The ACS also provided specific advice for survivors of a variety of major cancers.

I’ve put a summary of the guidelines on my website.

The ACS also advised: • Cancer survivors should work with a registered dietitian who has special certification in cancer care. He or she can provide specific, evidence-based advice.

• Many cancer survi-

vors have trouble taking in enough calories each day.

Eating smaller and more frequent meals can help. Or try special fortified or nutrient-dense foods.

• Use dietary supplements cautiously. Taking more than the recommended daily amounts (RDA) of vitamins and minerals does not improve treatment outcomes or long-term survival. In fact, it can interfere with some cancer treatments. For example, taking a beta-carotene supplement may encourage the growth of lung cancer.

• Exercise can help fight fatigue, keep you functioning and improve your quality of life. Discuss when to start exercising, and how much, with your doctor.

• Obesity appears to increase the risk of breast (and possibly other) cancer recurrence. Losing weight and keeping it off can help improve survival.

When some of my patients

hear advice like the ACS has given, they are skeptical. To them, cancer is a powerful force, and it seems unlikely a healthy lifestyle could do much to tame it. I tell them the advice is supported by large and well-done scientific studies. There is little doubt from those studies, for example, that survivors of breast cancer who are overweight have a worse prognosis than those of normal weight. Or that those who exercise regularly have a better prognosis than those who don’t.

We even are beginning to understand why. A research study was published recently that showed regular exercise leads to hormonal changes that discourage the growth of breast cancer cells. It’s not anecdotal: It’s science.

Armisen confirms exit THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Wednesday, July 3, 2013 • Section D • Page 6

Fred Armisen has confirmed he has left “Saturday Night Live” after 11 years.

“SNL” often doesn’t announce its cast changes, but the show’s season finale in May concluded with a farewell for Armisen and Bill Hader.

Armisen says he felt as though his departure from “SNL” was “obvious” considering in his last sketch he sang “It’s been a lovely night with you” as British punk rock character Ian Rubbish. He was accompanied by several friends and musicians including Carrie Brownstein, his co-star on the IFC sketch show “Portlandia.”

Armisen says he left partly because “Portlandia” was demanding more time and because “it felt like a very healthy, good time to do it.”

Brosnan’s daughter dies of ovarian cancer

Depp: ‘Just happy to still be around’ It may be difficult to separate Johnny Depp from his “Pirates” character Jack Sparrow, but the actor recalls a time before the boozy buccaneer became a household name.

“The films that I did prior to ‘Pirates,’ ... not everything but a lot of it, was sort of by industry standards, not blockbuster stuff. So I wasn’t ever blockbuster material,” Depp said.

But that’s not to say he didn’t have fun during those years.

“I’ve been lucky enough to be involved in some very small and different independent films throughout my career, and I’ve been able to be involved in, you know, a couple of films that shocked everybody, especially me,” he said.

Since 2003, Depp has played the flamboyant captain in four hugely successful “Pirates of the Caribbean” films, with a fifth installment slated for 2015. At age 50, he is still one the hottest names in Hollywood and about ready to launch another big-budget summer flick, “The Lone Ranger,” which opens today.

“The only thing I can equate it with is luck. There’s no other reason,” he said of his career longevity. “The fact that I was able to survive through that 15 years of just bouncing around doing [indie] movies and now still to end up here is amazing.”

Depp, who celebrated his milestone birthday June 9, refuses to take a single day for granted.

“Just to be here still is pretty amazing,” he said. “Every day should be some sort of celebration. So yeah, I guess when you hit 50 finally ... it’s just happy to still be around.”

Pierce Brosnan’s daughter has died from ovarian cancer, his publicist confirms.

Charlotte was 41 years old when she passed away June 28 in London after battling the disease for three years.

Brosnan’s first wife, Cassandra Pierce Brosnan Harris, Charlotte’s mother, also died from ovarian cancer in 1991.

Harris’ mother died from the disease, as well.

People.com was first to report the story. In a statement to People, Brosnan said his daughter “fought her cancer with grace and humanity, courage and dignity.” He went on to say “we pray for her and that the cure for this wretched disease will be close at hand soon.”

Cassandra is survived by a husband, Alex Smith, 14-yearold daughter, Isabella, and 8-year old son, Lucas.

Rapper died of drug overdose Chris Kelly of the ’90s rap duo Kris Kross died of a drug overdose, a medical office investigator said Monday.

A toxicology screening revealed that Kelly, 34, had a mixture of drugs in his system when he was pronounced

dead May 1, said Betty Honey of the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office in Atlanta.

Paramedics found Kelly unresponsive on a living room couch at his Atlanta home and tried to resuscitate him. Kelly, known as “Mac Daddy,” was later pronounced dead at a local hospital.

Honey said she did not know which specific drugs Kelly had used before his death. However, a police report from the night of Kelly’s death said his mother told investigators her son used cocaine and heroin the night before he died and had a history of drug abuse.

NBC announces sequel to ‘The Bible’ NBC says it will air a sequel to the hit cable miniseries “The Bible.”

The network said Monday it will join with producer Mark Burnett and his actress-wife, Roma Downey, on the sequel. Burnett and Downey produced “The Bible” for the History channel.

Downey starred in “Touched by an Angel” and also played Jesus Christ’s mother, Mary, in the miniseries that aired earlier this year.

NBC says the sequel has the working title “A.D.: Beyond the Bible” and will open in the days following Christ’s death.

Casting and an air date haven’t been announced.

Burnett’s producing credits include the NBC series “The Voice” and “Celebrity Apprentice.”

SOLID GAINS FOR U.S. AUTOMAKERS DETROIT – U.S. buyers snapped up new cars and trucks in June at a pace not seen since before the recession.

Continuing demand for big pickups helped boost sales for Detroit’s automakers.

Ford said Tuesday that its sales rose 14 percent, while Chrysler’s gained 8 percent and General Motors’ rose 6.5 percent.

Japanese automakers reported solid gains as well.

Nissan’s sales jumped 13 percent, while Toyota’s were up 10 percent. But Volkswagen’s sales dropped 3 percent, the third straight monthly decline for the German car company.

Yumz the word Chain takes scoop out of frozen yogurt market

By BRETT ROWLAND browland@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – Local chain Yumz Gourmet Frozen Yogurt wants to take a bigger bite out of the growing frozen yogurt market.

The Elgin-based company opened its first store in November 2010 along Route 14 in Crystal Lake. Another store, on Randall Road in Lake in the Hills, opened in July 2011.

The business was designed from the beginning to be a franchise, said Yumz CEO Matt Thelander of Crystal Lake.

Yumz has grown steadily amid a national frozen yogurt boom in recent years, though not nearly as quickly as other franchises in the increasingly crowded industry. The resurgence of frozen yogurt in tough economic times reflects America’s appetite for health-conscious treats.

Yumz has nine stores in Illinois and one in Indiana. Two more are expected to open soon, one in Lombard and another near Tampa, Fla. Others are planned for California and Wisconsin, said Thelander, who partnered with his wife, Lori, and John Barnes on the venture. The Thelanders are Cary-Grove High School graduates.

Yumz remains a small player in the larger frozen yogurt market. Industry sales hit $760.1 million in the U.S. in 2012, according to market research firm IBISWorld. Sales are expected to continue to climb in the next five years.

After significant growth in the 1980s, frozen yogurt sales dropped off in the 1990s.

Pinkberry, Red Mango, Yogurtland and Menchie’s have been leading the segment’s revival. Each has more than 200 stores worldwide. Red Mango has one at 1114 N. Green St. in McHenry, among more than two dozen stores in Illinois.

Yogen Früz, a chain founded in 1986 during the last yogurt boom, has 1,300 stores in 42 countries, including one in the Algonquin Commons shopping center on Randall Road. Another holdover, TCBY, has 470 stores in the U.S. “Frozen yogurt took off in California and the southern states and it has expanded to major cities across the country,” said Darren Tristano, executive vice president at Technomic Inc., a Chicago consulting and research firm serving the food industry. “Now we’re starting to see more aggressive franchising, saturation in larger markets and new stores opening in smaller markets.”

Competition is intense with franchises scooping out new territory across the country.

“We’ve seen quite a few indpendents that have opened with the intent of expanding and franchising,” Tristano said. “The health halo around frozen yogurt has a lot to do with it. So does the tart and tangy contemporary taste profile.”

Crystal Lake Bank & Trust will offer free document shredding during July at three of its locations. To participate, stop by one of the bank locations any day before the event to receive your free shredding coupon which is valid for up to three boxes of items. Bring the coupon with you on the shredding date: • 10 a.m. to noon July 13 at McHenry Bank & Trust-East, 2730 W. Route 120, McHenry.

• 10 a.m. to noon July 13 at Algonquin Bank & Trust, 4049 W. Algonquin Road, Algonquin.

• 10 a.m. to noon July 27 at Crystal Lake Bank & Trust, 5100 Northwest Hwy., Crystal Lake, IL 60014.

Coffee and doughnuts will be served.

Business Journal preview This article appears in the Summer 2013 issue of McHenry County’s Business Journal, published this week.

Customization is another factor in the industry’s growth. Many frozen yogurt companies have adopted a selfserve model, which allows customers to create their own treat with different flavors of frozen yogurt and assorted toppings.

The self-serve model also can lower the investment and cost of labor for franchisees.

“Three years ago there wasn’t as much competition,” Thelander said.

“Now all the big players are moving in.”

Still, the partners are pleased with the company’s growth.

“Our goal was never to be the biggest,” Thelander said. “Our goal was to attract good people and become entrenched in the communities we serve.”

Yumz started with a focus on taste.

“We spent months searching for the right recipe,” Barnes said. “Our taste sells the brand.”

They also wanted to make the Yumz concept easy to replicate.

“We began with franchisees in mind,” Barnes said. “In terms of cost, supply, maintenance, this is what we’d want if we were a franchisee.”

Opening a Yumz store costs about $250,000 to $300,000, Barnes said. The average initial investment for a frozen yogurt store is about $400,000, Franchise Times reported earlier this year.

Yumz touts its training program, social media reach, and growing legion of fans to potential franchisees.

The chain’s Coolest Combos concept, which allows visitors to create and name their favorite combinations of 40 rotating frozen yogurt flavors and 65 toppings, has proven so popular the company trademarked it.

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Yumz Gourmet Frozen Yogurt owners Matt and Lori Thelander pose for a portrait at their Lake in the Hills location.

Hundreds of Coolest Combos are listed on Yumz website, www.yumzfrozenyogurt.com. Customers also can browse through them on touch screen displays in stores. Thelander’s Coolest Combo, named “Matt’s Chocolate Explosion,” features a mix of chocolate and cake batter frozen yogurt topped with cookie dough and Oreos.

Yumz uses social media, text notifications, and emails to offer special promotions and discounts. Its texting club has really taken off, with more than 4,000 users.

“We try to have fun with it,” Thelander said. “On Presidents Day, we said ‘Come in and say ‘George Washington’ and get 10 percent off.’”

Yumz plans to continue to grow regionally and nationally. Franchisee interest has been high. Barnes said he gets about 200 to 250 requests for franchise information a month.

“Some chains have focused on opening as many stores as fast as they can,” he said. “We’re focused on strategic growth, in very good locations, in very good markets, and with very good people.”

CARY – Final vendor spaces are available for SportsFest 2013, hosted by the Cary Grove Area Chamber of Commerce. The event will be from noon to 4 p.m. Aug. 18 in the Feinberg Court business district off Route 14.

8IN BRIEF U.S. home prices rise in May by most in 7 years WASHINGTON – U.S. home prices jumped 12.2 percent in May from a year ago, the most in seven years. The increase suggests the housing recovery is strengthening.

Real estate data provider CoreLogic said Tuesday that home prices rose from a year ago in 48 states. They fell only in Delaware and Alabama.

And all but three of the 100 largest cities reported price gains.

Prices rose 26 percent in Nevada to lead all states. It was followed by California (20.2 percent), Arizona (16.9 percent), Hawaii (16.1 percent) and Oregon (15.5 percent).

CoreLogic also says prices rose 2.6 percent in May from April, the fifteenth straight month-over-month increase.

Sales of previously occupied homes topped the 5 million mark in May for the first time in 3 ½ years. And the proportion of those sales that were “distressed” was at the lowest level in more than four years for the second straight month. Distressed home sales include foreclosures and short sales. A short sale is when a home sells for less than what is owed on the mortgage.

U.S. factory orders up 2.1 percent in May WASHINGTON – Orders to U.S. factories rose in May, helped by a third straight month of stronger business investment. The gains suggest manufacturing may be picking up after a weak start to the year.

The Commerce Department said Tuesday that factory orders rose 2.1 percent in May. April’s increase was revised higher to 1.3 percent from 1 percent.

Most of the increase in May was due to a big jump in volatile commercial aircraft demand. Still, businesses also ordered more machinery, computers and household appliances.

Tips for setting – and pursuing – financial goals You can get lucky by finding a parking meter with time left on it.

You can “luck out” by having nice weather on your vacation. You can even be lucky at love. But when it comes to financial matters, you’re better off not counting on Lady Luck – and focusing instead on setting and pursuing goals.

Here are some suggestions for establishing and pursuing your financial objectives: • Be specific. You probably have a lot of ideas about what you want to do, but if you’re going to turn these wishes into reality, you need to get specific. So, for example, instead of telling yourself that you want to retire early, set a goal of retiring at, say, 62. You can then use this target number to help guide your overall investment strategy. To illustrate: You can determine that you need to invest a certain amount of money each year, and earn a certain rate of return, to be able to retire at 62. You can also esti-

FINANCE Steve Middaugh mate about how much money you can afford to withdraw from your investment accounts each year to sustain a retirement that begins at 62.

• Prioritize your goals. Of course, you want to achieve all your financial goals – and you can have a better chance of doing so if you rank these goals in terms of both importance and timing. For example, you may want to send your kids to college, purchase a vacation home and still be able to retire at age 62. How should you allocate your resources to each of these goals?

Should you invest more at any given time for a specific goal? What types of investments are best for each of these goals? Prioritizing your goals can help you answer these and other questions – and help direct your overall investment strategy.

• Be prepared to change your goals.

Over time, your family and financial circumstances can change considerably – which means you shouldn’t be surprised, or alarmed, if you have to change your goals accordingly. And you’ll find it easier to maintain this flexibility if you’ve worked diligently to create an investment portfolio with sufficient resources to allow you to change direction, as needed.

• Review your progress regularly.

If you’re going to eventually achieve your goals, you absolutely need to measure your progress along the way. Are your investments performing the way you had anticipated? Are your goals becoming more expensive than you had initially envisioned? To achieve these goals, are you taking on too much – or too little – risk? To answer these types of questions, it’s a good idea to review your overall progress at least once a year and then make whatever adjustments may be necessary.

As you can see, it will take considerable effort to set, review and (hopefully) achieve your goals. And it can be somewhat complex, too, so you may want to work with a financial professional – someone who takes time to talk with you about your goals, understands your risk tolerance and family situation, and has the training and experience necessary to help you work toward your objectives.

But in any case, think hard about your goals and how you might accomplish them. And don’t delay in taking action – because goals are generally easier to attain if you have time on your side.

For stock market, a good first half is tough to match serve has helped stocks rally by forcing down interest rates. But the central bank is considering reducing that stimulus later this year. Also, concerns about the Chinese economy, the world’s second-largest, have unsettled markets in recent weeks.

But the factors that drove the market methodically higher the first five months of the year remain: The housing market is strengthening. Auto sales are strong. Companies continue to earn record profits. Inflation and interest rates are ultra low. The economy is growing moderately and may pick up the second half of the year.

“We’re going higher,” said Phil Orlando, Chief Equity Strategist at Federated Investors. “Rising stock prices and rising real estate prices are making people feel better about their financial condition ... So we think that second-half GDP and second-half earnings are going to be better than the first half.”

Orlando predicts that the S&P 500 will end the year at 1,750.

Although many investors had expected stocks to climb this year, they were surprised at the speed of the advance early on. By May 21, the S&P 500 had climbed to a record 1,669 and was up 17 percent. A day later, Fed chairman Ben Bernanke said the central bank was considering pulling back on its stimulus. The market’s advance cooled, and the S&P has lost 3 percent since.

Add dividends to the S&P 500’s price rise and the total return for investors is 13.8 percent – the most in

By STEVE ROTHWELL AP Markets Writer NEW YORK – The stock market just had its best first half of the year since 1998. Now what?

History suggests stock investors will make more money the second half of the year.

Since World War II, a big increase in the first half of a year has almost always been followed by more gains in the second half.

In the 68 years beginning with 1946, the S&P 500 index has risen 10 percent or more 23 times, according to data from S&P Dow Jones Indices. During those 23 years, the market rose the second half of the year 19 times. Eleven of those years, or nearly half, the S&P 500 rose at least 10 percent the second half of the year.

The best second half was in 1954, in the middle of the stock market’s longest bull run. Stocks increased 26.2 percent July-December. The worst second half was in 1987. The “Black Monday” market crash was Oct. 19, and stocks fell 17.4 percent the second half of the year.

In years like this one, in which stocks have started with a gain of between 10 and 15 percent, the average second-half increase has been 9.4 percent.

Those numbers suggest that when a rally gets going, it keeps going.

Of course, past performance is no guarantee of the market’s future, and investors face some hurdles in this year’s second half. The Federal Re-

15 years.

Here are the five best first halves for the S&P 500 since World War II. Data before 1957, when the S&P 500 was launched, combine the values for four earlier S&P indices: the industrials, utilities, financials and transportation: • 1975. First half: up 41.7 percent.

Second half: down 3.2 percent.

The 1970s began with a bull run, but things soon went sour. The oil crisis of 1973-1974 caused oil prices to soar and the economy entered into what would be a 16-month recession in November 1973. The annual rate of inflation began to climb. It surged as high as 12.2 percent in November 1974 from 3.4 percent a year earlier. The S&P 500 dropped 48 percent between Jan. 11, 1973 and Oct. 4, 1974.

The market soared in the first half of 1975 as inflation moderated and investors grew hopeful the economy was pulling out of its slump. The market gave up some of its gain in the second half of the year as doubts about the strength of the economic recovery grew and concern rose that inflation might re-emerge. New York City’s fiscal crisis also weighed on markets.

• 1987. First half: up 27.4 percent.

Second half: down 17.4 percent.

In early 1987, investors were still enjoying a bull run that had begun in August 1982. Unemployment and inflation had fallen. Tax cuts and low interest rates had spawned an economic boom.

But things unraveled in a big way.

Stocks peaked on Aug. 25, when the

S&P 500 closed at a record 336. Rising interest rates and concerns about a stock bubble prompted a sell-off in October. That culminated in ‘Black Monday’ on Oct. 19, 1987, when the index plunged 57 points, or 20.5 percent, to 224.

• 1983. First half: up 22.2 percent.

Second half: up 0.25 percent.

In early 1983, the great ‘80s bull run was just beginning. It had started the previous summer after the Fed lowered its benchmark interest rate from 14.5 percent to 10 percent. President Reagan’s tax cuts also got the economy going after it had contracted for much of 1982.

But the surge in stocks stalled in the second half. Investors worried that the expanding economy would revive inflation and compel the Fed to raise rates.

• 1986. First half: up 20.7 percent.

Second half: down 1.8 percent.

The factors that had given stocks a lift in 1983 were still in play. Also, falling oil prices helped lower the threat of inflation and allowed the Fed to cut interest rates. The price of oil dropped as low as $10.42 a barrel in March, after starting the year at $26.30 a barrel.

• 1954. First half: up 20.6 percent.

Second half: up 26.2 percent.

The stock market was on its longest bull run, from 1949 to 1961. In 1954, an improving economy and rising confidence after the Korean War helped stocks. By November, the market had finally returned to its peak before the Wall Street Crash of 1929.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

Garry Kasparov, many people’s choice as the best chess player ever, said, “Chess helps you to concentrate, improve your logic. It teaches you to play by the rules and take responsibility for your actions, how to problem-solve in an uncertain environment.”

Bridge players can relate to that. Interestingly, though, the environment is less certain in bridge, where there are unseen cards, than in chess, where the position of every piece is known.

Some chess games feature a sacriice, purposely losing a piece. This is much less common in bridge, but can be required -- as in this deal. South is in three notrump. West leads the spade queen. What is South’s best line of play, and how can East foil that plan?

South, with seven top tricks (two spades, two hearts and three diamonds), must establish two club tricks to get home. The best way to do that is low to dummy’s king on the irst round. But even if South can succeed, he will lose the lead twice. There is a risk that the defenders will establish and run West’s spade suit.

In this situation, with

two key-cards to dislodge, declarer usually should duck the irst trick.

After taking the second spade in his hand, South plays a club to dummy’s king. Now is the key moment. East must realize that if declarer has the club ace, his queen is worthless. He must sacriice his queen under dummy’s king. Here, this gives West two club entries, one to establish his spades and one to cash the winners.

Note that if East retains his club queen, he wins the second club and does not have a spade to lead. Then the contract makes.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Your ideas on how to make additional money should not be discounted. More than a few will have potential, but they’ll count for nothing if they’re not tried in the coming months.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You’re the one who can awaken enthusiasm in a friend who has been down in the dumps, because your words will carry more weight than you realize. Don’t hesitate to speak up.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Once you’re certain that you are on solid ground, devote all your efforts to an ambitious project. Work hard and take things one step at a time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You might get an opportunity to teach a friend a valuable skill. However, first be sure that he or she is open to your suggestions.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- To be successful, you won’t have to be bolder or stronger than your competitors, just smarter. While most of them are using their muscles, you should be using your head.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- It’s important to keep an open and receptive mind at all times. There’s a good chance that a colleague could occasionally have better ideas than yours.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Be reasonable about the size of the returns you expect for your efforts.

What you accomplish might be acknowledged in small ways, but not necessarily on a grand scale.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Because you’ll know how to put everyone at ease, you’ll be an asset at any social gathering. Most assuredly, your tactics will make you very popular.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your thoughtfulness toward your family and friends will be apparent. All the little things you do will show them that you really care and have their best interests at heart.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- For whatever reason, you’ll be especially adept at endeavors that require a creative and imaginative mind. Be sure to utilize your skills to the fullest extent.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Don’t be indifferent to the suggestions of others when it comes to your commercial dealings. By the same token, don’t discount your own ideas, either. Consider everyone and everything.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It would be best not to employ an intermediary to pass on critical information to associates. If there is something important you need others to hear, communicate it yourself.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Many times, others’ tips about ways to make money are less than reliable.

Today, however, you are likely to receive some inside info that is worthy of exploration.
