By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – It’s always a little awkward the first day. It’s 10 a.m. on a Wednesday, a few days before tournament play kicks off during the McHenry County Youth Sports Association Summer International Championships. A group of warm-up clad Japanese players arrive fresh off a bus from O’Hare International Airport, where they’d landed on the last of a series of planes that took them something like 6,000 miles. They stand, smile and wait. Across the brick dropoff area at Crystal Lake’s Holiday Inn, under a handful of international flags, there are about 10 McHenry County families. They stand, smile and wait.

Breaking the ice

Soon, under MCYSA’s home stay program, these families will each meet and take home two players from Japan’s 15-and-under international team. With hardly any common language to fall back on, the two sides will coexist for the next two weeks, eating together, sleeping under the same roof and spending hours at

the ballpark. Host families – this year, 48 of them caring for about 100 players – become the de facto mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters of players from countries like Japan, Brazil and Lithuania. “It’s a little awkward,” Diane Rowe, a 10-year home stay veteran, said of the first day. “And then I wake

No voices come from downstairs – just the steady, high-pitched knock of pingpong ball on paddle, then table, then paddle. It’s still Wednesday, about 2 p.m. The Rowe’s have brought home their two 14-year-olds, Mitsuhiro Takita and Taiga Numamoto. “I let my kids really talk to them more in the beginning,” said Diane Rowe, sitting at a kitchen table near the staircase in her Cary home. “I don’t even know if Eric’s down there playing pingpong with them now, but kids break the ice easier than parents.”

HARVARD – Miguel Andrade had a history of domestic altercations with the mother of his child, Jackie Flores, leading up to Thursday’s murder-suicide that left both dead in a Harvard neighborhood. Representatives from Turning Point, McHenry County’s only domestic violence agency, want those in abusive relationships to know there are resources available to victims and abusers in hopes of bringing an end to the type of violence that took place in Harvard. “[Domestic violence] is a huge problem,” said Jane Farmer, executive director of Turning Point. “It’s not just in our county. It’s a huge problem everywhere. And it’s not talked about enough.” There were 651 cases filed in McHenry County that contained domestic violence charges in 2012, down from 724 cases in 2011, according to the McHenry County Circuit Clerk. As of Friday,

Turning Point provides shelter, food, clothing, child care, job assistance, school supplies and other assistance to women and their children who are in abusive relationships. Farmer said there are also Partner Abuse Intervention Programs available for the abusers in a domestic violence situation. The majority of men in the programs are court-ordered to attend, but Farmer said roughly 40 percent enroll voluntarily.

Ethics investigation of Roskam extended The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – The House Ethics Committee says it is extending an investigation of Republican U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam of Illinois. The committee said it received a report from the Office of Congressional Ethics, an independent investigative body, and decided to extend its investigation of Roskam, who represents parts of Cook, DuPage, Lake, Kane and McHenry counties. The committee said it will announce its course of action on Roskam in September and that extending an investigation does not indicate that a violation has occurred. Roskam’s office said in a statement the OCE investigation into him involved a trip he took to Taiwan. Roskam spokeswoman Stephanie Kittredge said he

informed the Ethics Committee about the trip and his planned activities on it before he left. Roskam took the unusual step of publicizing his OCE report on Friday because he said he had done nothing wrong. “The record reflects that Rep. Roskam fully complied with all laws, rules and procedures related to privately sponsored travel,” Kittredge said. “The trip was vetted and approved by the House Ethics Committee, the body legally authorized to make determinations on congressional conduct.”

Responsibility, ethics and the royal baby George Alexander Louis put me over the top this week. I need to vent, so here’s another edition of Rapid Fire Rants: • We can’t report on what we think someone is thinking and report it as fact. That’s not what responsible journalism is about. That’s what bloggers do. Sure, we sometimes speculate – responsibly – in columns or editorials. But our news coverage is grounded in fact and sourcing, not bias and political motives. • Here’s the deal: I love feedback and news tips. But if you’ve got something to say or want to rip on me or the newspaper, do it with a name attached to it. Otherwise, your cowardice is thrown into the trash bin and given no consideration. • How can the McHenry County

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Jason Schaumburg Ethics Commission read this portion of an email sent from a county email address and not see anything political? “Since announcing my candidacy, I have been accused by local bloggers of working with a drug cartel, corruption, and now, publicly driving down the Crystal Lake Parade giving everyone ‘the finger.’ The personal attacks by my opponent and his supporters on my family, my friends, my wife, my children, my in-laws, co-workers, and county board members is despicable and have no place in a legitimate race.”

That’s a swing and a miss by the commission, which ruled the email sent by Undersheriff Andrew Zinke, who is running for McHenry County Sheriff, did not constitute a prohibited political activity. • It was also disappointing to see the commission hide behind a provision in the Open Meetings Act and vote to go into closed session for its discussion. At least Commission Chairman Thomas Spencer voted against doing so. • And for the commission and its members to not provide a reason for their decision is unacceptable. • This was the first hearing the eight-year-old commission ever conducted. I’m told by Northwest Herald reporter Kevin Craver it looked that way. • The amount of media attention

in this country given to the birth of a royal baby on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean was an embarrassment. • Why are all the members of the Metra board still on the Metra board? • It’s been crickets from the committee put together to tackle pension reform in this state. Par for the course. Tick, tock. At least lawmakers aren’t getting paid until it’s done. • Michael Madigan is the poster child for why Illinois needs term limits.

FDA proposes rules for safer imported foods By MARY CLARE JALONICK The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Chances are that about 15 percent of the food you eat – more if your diet includes lots of fruits, vegetables and cheese – comes from abroad, and the government is taking steps now to make it safer. New rules proposed Friday by the Food and Drug Administration would make U.S. food importers responsible for ensuring that their foreign suppliers are handling and processing food safely. Imported fruit and cheese has been responsible for many recent outbreaks, including 153 recent Hepatitis A illnesses linked to a frozen berry mix

sold at Costco last month as well as four deaths last year that were linked to listeria in Italian cheese. Imported fruits or vegetables are also the top suspect in an ongoing outbreak of cyclosporiasis, a gastrointestinal infection that has so far sickened 321 people in 13 states. Other illnesses in the last several years have been linked to imported papayas, mangoes and nuts and spices used as ingredients. An estimated 3,000 people die from food-related illnesses every year. The proposed rules, required by a sweeping food safety law passed by Congress in 2010, are meant to establish better checks on what long

has been a scattershot effort to guard against unsafe food imported from more than 150 countries. Only around 2 percent of imported food is inspected by the government at ports and borders. The guidelines would require U.S. food importers to verify that the foreign companies they are importing from are achieving the same levels of food safety required in this country. The government estimates that the rules, which would also improve audits of food facilities abroad, could eventually cost the food industry up to $472 million annually. FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg used the frozen berry illnesses, linked

to pomegranate seeds from Turkey, as an example of an outbreak that could have been prevented if the new rules were in place. She said it illustrates the “growing complexity of the food supply.” FDA investigators had to look at berries from several different countries that were included in the mix before they zeroed in on the Turkish seeds as the probable source of the illnesses, she said. Like rules for domestic farmers and food companies released earlier this year, the idea is to make businesses more responsible for the safety of the food they are selling or importing by proving they are using good food safety practices.

Ethics panel to investigate Madigan’s Metra role The ASSOCIATED PRESS The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – House Speaker Michael Madigan will be investigated by the Legislative Ethics Commission, a move he requested. The eight-member bi partisan commission voted Thursday to investigate whether Madigan and fellow Democratic state Reps. Luis

Arroyo and Elizabeth Hernandez interfered with Metra personnel matters. Following a Regional Transportation Authority meeting in which former Metra CEO Alex Clifford testified last week, the Legislature’s inspector general Tom Homer said he planned to investigate the matter. The commission’s vote gives him the formal authority to do so.

Madigan, a Democrat who’s been at the House helm for 28 of the past 30 years, sent a letter Michael last Friday enMadigan couraging the commission to investigate allegations that he pressured Clifford on jobs and construction contracts.

Madigan also wants them to look into the circumstances surrounding his involvement in supporting a Metra supervisor’s recommendation to give an employee a pay boost. “I am confident my actions were not inappropriate or violative of any applicable law or ethical rule,” Madigan wrote. In an eight-page memo, Clifford accused agency board members of retaliat-

ing against him because he refused to bow to patronage demands, among them from Madigan, who is also the state Democratic party chair and arguably the most powerful lawmaker in Illinois. Clifford also said Arroyo pressured him to appoint a candidate for a deputy director position, and that Hernandez complained her husband, a Metra employee, was mis-

treated. The commission will vote on possible sanctions, including a $5,000 fine, for the lawmakers after Homer’s investigation is done, according to the state’s ethics act. Homer has called the law governing conflicts and ethics standards a “toothless tiger,” as there are few public disclosure requirements and lawmakers can’t be suspended.

Illinois, Iowa wait for decision on $1.2 billion fertilizer plant By DAVID MERCER The Associated Press

AP photo

A worker walks underneath the electromagnet Thursday as it moves down Butterfield Road in Glen Ellyn enroute to its new home in Batavia.

Magnet attracts rock-star status The ASSOCIATED PRESS GLEN ELLYN – It skipped tolls. It had a Twitter hashtag and a GPS tracker. It even posed for photos with groupies. The 50-foot-wide, 15-ton electromagnet attracted a sensation wherever it went during its slow, delicate 3,200mile journey from New York to Batavia. The land-and-sea trip culminated when scientists threw a rock star’s welcome for the mysterious, shrink-wrapped cargo on Friday as arrived at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory to help study blazing-fast particles. “ ‘Oh look, they found a flying saucer!’ ” retired software developer Chris Otis recalled thinking when he saw the massive, disc-shaped device when it made a pit-stop in a Costco parking lot.

Otis used his cellphone to take photos as he and others marveling the contraption wondered what would happen if it suddenly went live. “I figure somebody at Fermilab is going to plug the damn thing in, turn it on and my watch is going to stop running, everybody’s hearing aides are going to sail across the room,” Otis said with a laugh. “I have no idea. Turn it on and the Martians will hone in on it.” Fermilab officials, however, plan to use the magnet in a physics experiment called Muon g-2 that will study subatomic particles at their lab in Batavia. The experiment will study the properties of muons, subatomic particles that live only 2.2 millionths of a second. The results of the experiment could create new discoveries in the realm of par-

ticle physics, said Chris Polly, manager of the Muon g-2 project at Fermilab. The hulking magnet is a hand-me-down from New York, where it was built in the 1990s with aluminum and steel by scientists at the Brookhaven National Lab on eastern Long Island. It has superconducting coils inside and, at the time it was built, was the largest electromagnet in the world. Brookhaven scientists no longer had a need for the electromagnet, and shipping it out to the Midwest for about $3 million was cheaper than the alternative. Constructing an entirely new electromagnet could have cost as much as $30 million, Polly estimated. In any case, at least they didn’t have to pay tolls on the parts of the journey that took it over land.

CHAMPAIGN – The company that wants to build a $1.2 billion fertilizer plant in either northern Iowa or eastern Illinois has offers of incentives from both states and plans to choose a site in 30 to 60 days. Gov. Pat Quinn signed economic legislation Thursday that includes incentives to try to convince Cronus Chemical LLC to build in the state. Now, all there is left to do is wait. “That’s exactly what we’re doing,” Brian Moody, executive director of Tuscola Economic Development Inc., said after Quinn signed the legislation. “This was the last major box that we had to check locally.” Cronus plans to choose between a site just outside Tuscola and one in Mitchell County, Iowa, to build a nitrogen fertilizer plant that would employ about 150 people and create more than 1,500 shortterm construction jobs. The proposal is one of at least 20 similar plans to either build massive fertilizer plants or expand existing facilities across North America, driven by newly abundant and cheap supplies of

natural gas being turned up by hydraulic fracturing. Natural gas is a key component in many fertilizers and high prices drove a lot of fertilizer production out of North America a decade or more ago. David Lundy, a spokesman for Cronus Chemical, said the company is now trying to figure out which site makes sense. “We’re trying to establish costs and work through some questions with contractors,” he said. “That’s a fairly time-intensive, laborious process.” The details of Illinois’ offer haven’t been made public, but the Champaign News-Gazette reported it’s worth about $30 million. Moody wouldn’t discuss details, but says the offer includes things like road and highway improvements around the plant, as well as more traditional tax breaks. The dollar figure on Iowa’s, while also not made public, has been estimated at about $35 million in news reports. Economic development officials in Mitchell County didn’t return calls on Friday, and in the past have declined to discuss details. Iowa was chosen over Illinois last year for the construction of a $1.8 billion

fertilizer plant. Gov. Terry Branstad has been criticized for about $82.5 million in state tax credits promised to Egypt-based Orascom for the plant in far southeast Iowa. Illinois has found itself offering large tax-break packages in the past years to companies who have threatened to leave the state. Those tax breaks were defensive moves, often seen as products of the state’s poor fiscal condition and competition from other states that sensed Illinois companies might be lured away. But incentives are, unfortunately, just part of doing business, University of Illinois economist Fred Giertz said. “In an ideal situation, you’d hope it wasn’t necessary to do this, that the states would just compete on the advantages of their location,” he said. Giertz added that money for things such as highway improvements might benefit more than just one company, and make more sense than pure tax cuts. There are no guarantees that each of the country’s planned fertilizer plants will be built. One by Canadian firm Agrium Inc., was put on hold in June.

No death penalty for Snowden, U.S. says By PETE YOST The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Striving to get Edward Snowden back to America, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder has assured the Russian government the U.S. has no plans to seek the death penalty for the former National Security Agency systems analyst. In a letter dated Tuesday, the attorney general said the criminal charges Snowden now faces in this country do not carry the death penalty and the U.S. will not seek his execution even if he is charged with additional serious crimes. Holder’s letter followed news reports that Snowden, who leaked details of top secret U.S. surveillance pro-

grams, has filed papers seeking temporary asylum in Russia on grounds that if he were returned to the United States he would be tortured and would face the death penalty. Snowden has been charged with three offenses in the U.S., including espionage, and could face up to 30 years in prison if convicted. The attorney general’s letter was sent to Alexander Vladimirovich Konovalov, the Russian minister of justice. Holder’s letter is part of a campaign by the U.S. government to get Snowden back. When Snowden arrived at Moscow’s international airport a month ago, he was believed to be planning simply to transfer to a flight to Cuba

and then to Venezuela to seek asylum. But the U.S. canceled his passport, stranding him. Besides applying for temporary asylum in Russia, he has said he’d like to visit the countries that offered him permanent asylum – Venezuela, Bolivia and Nicaragua. Some Russian politicians, including parliament speaker Sergei Naryshkin, have said Snowden should be granted asylum to protect him from the death penalty. If Snowden were to go to a country that opposes the death penalty, providing assurances that the U.S. won’t seek it could remove at least one obstacle to his return to America. “I can report that the United States is prepared to provide to the Russian government the following assur-

ances regarding the treatment Mr. Snowden would face upon return to the United States,” Holder wrote. “First, the United States would not seek the death penalty for Mr. Snowden should he return to the United States.” In addition, “Mr. Snowden will not be tortured. Torture is unlawful in the United States.” Bruce Fein, a lawyer representing Edward Snowden’s father, criticized Holder. “Today the attorney general stated – apparently thinking he was being conciliatory – that if Edward Snowden were returned to the United States we wouldn’t kill him or torture him. Those are concessions only in the mind of someone who’s very biased,” said Fein. He said an impartial pros-

ecutor would have said that Snowden is entitled to a presumption of innocence and that he would guarantee Snowden a fair trial by ensuring it was held in a venue that wasn’t populated by NSA contractors. The attorney general said that if Snowden returned to the U.S. he would promptly be brought before a civilian court and would receive “all the protections that United States law provides.” Holder also said that “we understand from press reports and prior conversations between our governments that Mr. Snowden believes that he is unable to travel out of Russia and must therefore take steps to legalize his status. That is not accurate; he is able to travel.”

Southern states gird for new fight over voter laws The ASSOCIATED PRESS AUSTIN, Texas – Stricter voter identification laws, redrawn political maps fortifying Republican majorities, reducing early voting: States with GOP strongholds intensified these efforts under President Barack Obama and proclaimed victory at the Supreme Court. Now the Obama administration is signaling plans to drag some of these mostly Southern states with histories of minority discrimination into rematches after the high court knocked down a major piece of the Voting Rights Act. First up is Texas, which rushed to enact a tough voter ID law and new redistricting maps after the justices’ 5-4 ruling last month. North Carolina is considered to be another possible target of the administration, and officials in Alabama are also digging their heels in for another possible round with the Justice Department. Other states also are watching closely. “You can imagine a very aggressive Justice Department trying to get the bar as low as possible and demanding that states be bailed in” back under former voting rights protections, said Rebecca Green, co-director of the election law program at the College of William & Mary. Predictions that North Carolina is on deck grew late Thursday after its Legislature sent Republican Gov. Pat McCrory sweeping voting law changes, including the end of a popular program that registers high school students to vote in advance of their 18th birthday. There’s also a strict voter ID measure, slashing early voting by a week and the elim-

ination of same-day registration. State elections statistics show black voters use early voting in heavy numbers and that more than 300,000 of the state’s residents don’t have a driver’s license, many of them poor and elderly. North Carolina conservatives call the moves voter integrity safeguards and were confident they will stand. “I think what we’ve seen over the past several years is the Obama administration politicize the voting rights section in ways we’ve never seen before,” said North Carolina state Sen. Phil Berger, the top Republican in the chamber. “I do not think they are a nonpartisan or neutral arbiter.” North Carolina gave final approval to the measures only hours after U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced he will ask a federal court to tether Texas back to provisions that require permission to change voting laws. Known as preclearance, the process had been mandatory in all or parts of 15 mostly Southern states with a history of discrimination, until the Supreme Court decision last month wiped out the preapproval. Holder called the decision flawed and said Thursday he will use “every tool at our disposal” in mounting a new fight over voter protection. He did not name other states in the sights of the Justice Department but vowed that Texas “will not be our last.” Election law experts say Texas presents the easiest – but by no means assured – path for the administration because a Washington federal court last year found the state to have engaged in intentional discrimination.

Wrecked carriages sit at a train depot Friday in Padron, near Santiago de Compostela, Spain, after they were taken there from the scene of a train accident.

Investigation in deadly train crash in Spain turns to driver The ASSOCIATED PRESS SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA, Spain – Investigations into Spain’s deadliest train crash in decades have only begun, but already a key question has been answered: Experts said Friday that the driver, not a computer, was responsible for applying the brakes because no “fail-safe” system has been installed on the dangerous stretch of bending track. The question of whether the brakes failed – or were never used – in the approach to Santiago de Compostela may remain open until police can question the injured driver and analyze the data on the train’s just-recovered

“black box.” Police announced they had arrested 52-year-old Francisco Jose Garzon Amo on suspicion of reckless driving because the train hit the turn Wednesday traveling far faster than its posted 50 mph limit. The train’s eight carriages packed with 218 passengers tumbled off the tracks into a concrete wall, and diesel fuel powering the engine sent flames coursing through some cabins. As the first funeral ceremonies began Friday night, authorities working from a sports arena-turned-morgue announced they had positively identified 75 of the 78 people killed in the crash.

They lowered the death toll from 80 after determining that some severed body parts had wrongly been attributed to different victims. They said five of the dead came from Algeria, the Dominican Republic, Italy, Mexico and the United States. Adif, Spain’s railway agency, confirmed that a high-tech automatic braking program called the European Rail Traffic Management System was installed on most of the high-speed track leading from Madrid north to Santiago de Compostela – but the cutting-edge coverage stops just 3 miles south of where the crash occurred, placing a greater burden on the driver to take charge.

8BRIEFS Prosecutors rest their case against Bulger BOSTON – Prosecutors rested their case against reputed Boston gangster James “Whitey” Bulger on Friday after calling 63 witnesses who described in sometimes gruesome detail his alleged role in 19 murders, a string of extortions and other crimes. Bulger, 83, is charged with 32 counts in a racketeering indictment that chronicles his alleged reign as leader of the Winter Hill Gang. Bulger’s lawyers are expected to begin presenting witnesses Monday. Defense lawyer J.W. Carney Jr. would not say whether Bulger will take the stand in his own defense.

Castro pleads guilty in Ohio kidnap case CLEVELAND – The man who imprisoned three women in his home, subjecting them to a decade of rapes and beatings, pleaded guilty Friday to 937 counts in a deal to avoid the death penalty. Ariel Castro told the judge he was addicted to pornography, had a “sexual problem” and had been a sexual abuse victim himself long ago. In exchange for his plea, prosecutors recommended Castro be sentenced to life without parole plus 1,000 years. Castro, 53, said he understood that he would never get out of prison, saying he expected he was “going to get the book thrown at me.”

U.N. office unveils gay-rights campaign NEW YORK – Amid a surge of anti-gay violence and repression in several countries, the United Nations’ human rights office on Friday launched its first global outreach campaign to promote tolerance and greater equality for lesbians, gays, transgender people and bisexuals. Called Free & Equal, it’s an unprecedented effort by the Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights to change public attitudes around the world on issues that have bitterly divided the U.N.’s own member states. The multi-pronged campaign will include videos and public-service announcements distributed through social media, a new website, a series of fact sheets and engagement by celebrities.

Andrade Japan coach: Players learn American culture with program HOST used key to •Continued from page A1 enter home, says official • VIOLENCE Continued from page A1 Farmer said women need to be aware of the signs of domestic violence and not be afraid to report it. “If he’s crowding her, restricting where she can go, calling her 15 times on the phone when she’s only been gone an hour. All of those are big signs,” Farmer said. “Some women say, ‘He hit me last night, and he’s nice to me the next day. It’s not a problem. I don’t want to tell people about it because he might not hit me again.’ It’s an ongoing issue we have to keep speaking out about,” she said. Using a key, Andrade entered Flores’s home around 1 a.m. Thursday where Flores, the couple’s 9-month-old baby and Flores’s mother were sleeping, according to Michael Combs, criminal division chief for the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office. Andrade demanded to see the baby and began pointing a gun at the child and at Flores. Flores’s mother took the baby and fled the home. Andrad e shot Flores once in her home. The bullet hit her wrist and head but did not penetrate her skull, Combs said. Flores then fled the home and was chased by Andrade through the neighborhood. Several neighbors said they heard screaming and said Flores was banging on neighbors’ doors. She was eventually chased into a neighbor’s yard and shot fatally in the head, Combs said. Andrade then shot himself in the head as police arrived at the scene. A .22-caliber revolver was recovered near him. Combs said he believes the child is living with Flores’s mother. Andrade, 19, was taken to Mercy Harvard Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Flores, a 17-year-old senior at Harvard High School, was pronounced dead at the scene. Andrade had threatened to kill Flores more than six months ago, according to court records. He was arrested Jan. 13 and charged with misdemeanor counts of endangering the life of a child, assault, harassment through electronic communication and battery. In January, Andrade reportedly chased Flores outside while threatening to kill her. He also threatened to kill another woman through text message, court records show. He also pulled the hair of the woman and took his infant daughter outside with only a blanket around the waist while chasing Flores and threatening her. Andrade failed to appear in court, and the judge ultimately forfeited his bond on June 19, according to court records. There has been an active warrant for Andrade’s failure to appear on those charges since May 8. Farmer said those in an abusive relationship should call Turning Point at 815-3388081 or visit its website at www.mchenrycountyturningpoint.org.

said the goal is to find a level of comfort as quickly as possible. “Once you get rolling a few days into it, they open up and they’re part of the family,” he said.

It is, indeed, Eric Rowe, Diane’s 16-year-old son, and Mitsuhiro. Taiga has laid down for a nap in Eric’s room. Later, they’ll all play more pingpong and darts. Being a kid proves universal. Settling into a parent-son relationship can take slightly longer. “When you’re the parent, you’re not playing games with them. You need to make sure that their physical and emotional needs are being met,” said Kristen Lewis of Cary, who coordinates the program for Brazil. “So I think it’s a little bit easier for the kids than it is the parents.” Greg Case of Cary, who also opens his home to Brazilian players, agrees. He

Everything is different

Baseball is the top priority for the players, but the home stay program offers something extra for all involved. Many international players wouldn’t otherwise have a chance to get out of their own country. “They learn American culture,” Sadao Nakashiro, head coach of Japan’s 15-and-under team for the last 13 years, said through an interpreter. “Everything is completely different here than Japan. They have fun staying in home stay.” The program provides an

added financial benefit that proves essential for some players. And host families have their own takeaways. Lewis’s two sons – Jonathon, 13, and A.J., 12 – aren’t big baseball fans. Having players in their home forced them out of their comfort zone. “It was a good learning experience for them,” Lewis said. “They got so much out of the boys, the baseball players. Learning to communicate when you don’t have a common verbal language. ... And what it felt like to have an older brother.” Emily Rowe, Diane’s daughter, said growing up with players in the house forced her to learn about other cultures. “Not being in such a bubble, which I think a lot of kids in America tend to be,” said Emily Rowe, 23.

Staying in touch

The Case family first got into the home stay program because of a requirement of the Cary Trojans baseball program, for which Greg Case coaches. But three years later, they’re hooked. Case likes the challenge associated with simplified verbal communication and hand signals. And, like all families in the program, it’s the lasting relationships that really make it worthwhile. Social media has made the world smaller, and home stay families take full advantage. The Case family still communicates with their four previous home stay players. “On a weekly basis,” Case said. “If we were to go to Brazil, we have an open invitation with any of them to stay at their house.”

The OCE’s investigative reports and recommendations for further investigation go to the member-run House Ethics Committee, the panel that decides whether rules were violated. The committee can then vote to continue investigations, launch its own formal investigations or dismiss cases outright.

The House committee was required to take action on the cases or release the full reports of the OCE by Sunday. Instead, it will continue to look into all of the cases for another 45 days.

Millions rally in Egypt, responding to army call

Strauss-Kahn to be tried in France

CAIRO – Called out by the army, the largest crowds in 2½ years of upheaval filled Egypt’s streets Friday, while ousted President Mohammed Morsi was placed under investigation on a host of allegations including murder and conspiracy with the Palestinian militant group Hamas. Morsi’s supporters showed no signs of backing down. The demonstrations in Cairo were mostly peaceful into the evening. But by late Friday night in Cairo, police fired tear gas to disperse hundreds of Morsi supporters near a sit-in they held for weeks, setting off clashes that lasted into early Saturday morning. A field hospital doctor said seven protesters were killed.

PARIS – Former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn will have to defend himself in a French court on charges of aggravated pimping despite recommendations by prosecutors that the charges be dropped. Judges investigating the case in Lille decided Friday to go ahead with charges of aggravated pimping in a group. The case revolves around an alleged hotel prostitution ring and hinges on whether Strauss-Kahn knew he was partying with prostitutes. His lawyers have said Strauss-Kahn had attended “libertine” gatherings but did not know that some women there were paid.

It’s something Emily Rowe has considered. After Elizabeth Zacher finishes college, the two, who’ve become close through the home stay program, want to visit some of their former Japanese players. It’s a distant dream, Rowe says, but she’d like to make it happen. In the meantime, the families are enjoying their time with this current batch of players.

Rio’s Copacabana stages show for pope The ASSOCIATED PRESS RIO DE JANEIRO – Pope Francis presided over one of the most solemn rites of the Catholic Church on Friday, a procession re-enacting Christ’s crucifixion, that received a Broadway-like treatment befitting its improbable location, Rio’s hedonistic Copacabana beach. Copacabana, which hosts Carnival and Rolling Stones concerts, lived up to its reputation by staging a wildly theatrical telling of the Way of the Cross, complete with huge stage sets, complex lighting, a full orchestra and a cast of hundreds acting out a modern version of the biblical story. Francis looked on silently. The procession is one of the mainstay events of World Youth Day, designed to remind young Catholics about the root of their faith that Jesus Christ died to forgive their sins. Francis drove home that message at the start of Friday, hearing the confessions of five young pilgrims in a Rio park.

Nuns celebrate and take pictures as Pope Francis arrives Friday to give Angelus noon prayer as they stand on a balcony at Sao Joaquim Palace in Rio de Janeiro. “It was just five minutes, it followed the regular ritual of confession, but then Francis stayed and talked with us,” said one of the five, Estefani Lescano, 21, a student from La Guaira, Venezuela. “It was all very personal. He told us that young people have the responsibility of keeping the church alive and spreading the word of Christ.”

Later, Francis met privately with a few juvenile detainees, a priority ever since his days as archbishop of Buenos Aires and an expression of his belief that the church must reach out to the most marginalized and forgotten of society. Even now as pope, he calls a group of youths in a Buenos Aires detention center every two weeks just to keep

in touch, and one of his most memorable gestures as pope was his Holy Thursday Mass at a juvenile detention center in Rome where he washed the feet of young offenders. On Friday, other young offenders presented Francis with a large homemade rosary made out of Styrofoam balls, each one bearing the names of the eight street children gunned down by police death squads in 1993 as they slept outside Rio’s Candelaria church – a notorious massacre that underscored the unequal treatment that outcasts often receive in Brazil. On the cross were the words “Candelaria Never Again” in Portuguese. The sun finally came out on Friday, ending four days of rain that soaked pilgrims and forced the relocation of the festival’s culminating Mass on Sunday. Instead, the Mass and the Saturday night vigil that precedes it will take place at Copacabana beach rather than the mud pit covering the original site in Guaratiba, some 30 miles west of central Rio.

8SKETCH VIEW

Jobless rate sees uptick The Northwest Herald Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs down: To the latest unemployment report. McHenry County’s jobless rate spiked to 9 percent in June, up from 8.8 percent in June 2012. Across Illinois, the unemployment rate stands at 9.8 percent. Nationally, it’s 7.8 percent. That means the jobless rate in Illinois is 20 percent higher than the rest of the country. Hey state leaders, you think you can make Illinois any less friendly to job creators? Keep stalling on pension reform and talking about a graduated income tax increase and the answer to that question, sadly, is yes. Thumbs up: To recognizing heroes. The Harvard Fire Protection District and Harvard Police Department this week bestowed honors upon three men who earlier in the month jumped into a pond after a canoe carrying three boys tipped over. Resident Tyler Kurth, 26, was awarded the Lifesaving Certificate award from the fire district and the Award of Valor from the police department after he jumped into the pond and brought a boy to safety. Pete Livdahl and Charles Lorenz, who work for the fire district, also were honored for jumping into the pond in street clothes upon arrival on the scene to help a man who also had jumped in to help and was clinging to the canoe. Too often those who act poorly are the ones who receive attention. Positive acts deserve recognition, and we applaud the local Harvard departments for realizing that. Thumbs down: To the expense of $70 million in state money to acquire land for another Chicago area airport. What is it going to take for the leaders of Illinois to realize that the state is broke, and, until huge matters such as pension reform are resolved, is in no position to spend on new undertakings. The third airport political battle has gone on for decades, but with the state’s bond rating and debt in spiraling decline, this was not the time to resolve it. Thumbs up: To the McHenry County Youth Sports Association and all the work it does to conduct the Summer International Championships baseball tournaments. Fifteen-and-under, 13-and-under and 11-and-under teams from around the world will be competing in McHenry County over the next eight days. If you enjoy youth baseball, get out to a local ballpark and support the tournaments and the kids. Thumbs up: To the Spring at Crystal Lake Rehabilitation Center for holding a breakfast, which it does four times a year, to welcome back former patients in its physical rehabilitation program. Often, businesses move on when patients complete their programs and never see them again. In this case, the center showed its care for former patients by inviting them to return.

8HOW CONGRESS VOTED A look at this week’s major votes in Congress and how those who represent McHenry County voted:

NSA data collection The purpose: To block the National Security Agency from collecting vast amounts of phone records. The vote: Failed in the House on Wednesday by seven votes – 205 voted “yes,” 217 voted “no” and 12 didn’t vote. Local representation: U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren (R-14) voted “yes;” U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam (R-6) voted “no.” Source: The New York Times’ Inside Congress website

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Dumb and dumber To the Editor: The movie of two brainless losers, is this Generation Y, also known as the Millennial Generation? They cheer for repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act without understanding the unintended consequences. DOMA passed both houses of Congress by large, veto-proof majorities and was signed into law by President Bill Clinton. DOMA is a federal law that defines marriage as the legal union of one man and one woman for federal and inter-state recognition purposes. It’s a bald-faced lie that the court follows the nation’s lead. Au contraire. The Supreme Court ignored the nation’s lead. The court rejected the majority vote of the people of 31 states, including our nation’s bluest state, California, and ignored the fact that the traditional definition of marriage is enshrined, either by statute or state constitution, in 38 states. Justice Scalia wrote that the court had no power under the Constitution to invalidate those two democratically adopted laws – DOMA and Proposition 8, a ballot initiative procedure designed to enable the people to correct public officials’ actions that are not acceptable to the people. Scalia was scathing in describing the failure of the court to identify any basis in the Constitution for its

conclusion that DOMA is unconstitutional. Speaking for the court’s majority, Justice Kennedy accused DOMA supporters of acting with malice, with the purpose “to disparage and to injure” same-sex couples, to “impose ... a stigma,” to deny them “equal dignity,” to brand them as “unworthy,” and to “humiliate” their children. What? A same-sex marriage propagates our children? Robert Meale Woodstock

Help the hungry To the Editor: I am concerned about those people who are struggling to put enough food on the table in our area. The Meal Gap study released by Feeding America in June, indicates that 27,920 people in McHenry County don’t have enough to eat. Sadly, 14,820 of them are children. I support the work that Northern Illinois Food Bank is doing to provide food to hungry neighbors in their time of need. Through 700 feeding programs throughout 13 counties, including our district, Northern Illinois Food Bank is providing food to more than 60,000 people weekly. If you have not already, please contact Northern Illinois Food Bank to learn more about their efforts and the relevance of hunger. This spring, the Chicago Tribune reported on a Brookings Institute

study said that poverty in the Chicago suburbs has grown 99 percent in the past decade. In fact, more impoverished people live in the suburbs (724,233) than the city of Chicago (650,095). Pantries help about 10 percent of the need, while government programs such as SNAP help 90 percent. The U.S. House reduced SNAP, which will increase hunger. Hunger needs to be an issue of high priority. Please learn more and assist in helping feed those in our community who are facing hunger. Deb Martin McHenry

Deserving respect To the Editor: In light of the recent victories around the country when it comes to gay rights, I think it’s important to bring to light a more local focus on the issue.

front of the Chipotle in Crystal Lake by two cowards in a pickup truck who apparently had a problem with the way that I dress. Luckily, I have a great support system and the ability to handle such attacks. There are, however, many who do not. Every year, many young adults and others take their lives as a result of years of such bullying, happening every day in our community whether it’s at a school or simply in front of a Chipotle. We must have a stronger response to such acts, have a better community awareness of the dangers such displays of hate can bring, and above all, we cannot claim that our community is immune to this form of prejudice. Whether or not you agree that I should have the right to marry the person that I love one day, I hope you will agree that I, and all of my fellow LGBTQ Americans, deserve the same respect as everyone else.

County Board rules changes about openness, transparency In a recent Northwest Herald editorial on the proposed changes for the McHenry County Board rules, several points should be expanded upon. In general, these rules guide the board through the maze of work to be done on behalf of the electors. They also set expectations and requirements for ethical actions, openness and transparency in our proceedings. The editorial contends that this update is “aimed at curtailing the board chairman’s powers.” While not that simple, that is correct. For decades, under current rules, the chairmanship was a firstamong-equals role. This has eroded to a chairman consolidating power into what some describe as a strongman role undermining the spirit and practice of the democratic process. The current system enables each person seeking the board chairmanship to promise committee appointments, chairmanships, and special favors to secure their allegiance and votes. The proposed changes are aimed at curtailing Springfield/Chi-

cago-style governance in McHenry County. Continuing the old system, board members wanting the chairman to have more power inadvertently abdicate their responsibilities on behalf of their constituent’s. To the issue of term limits for our County Board chairman, state statute says that the County Board will “choose one of its members as chairman for a term of two years,” (55 ILCS 5/2-1003). Although the state constitution does not allow for term limits, County Board rules provide the mechanism, allowing board members to set expectations regarding the internal chairman selection process. The recommended change limiting a chairman three two-year terms is reasonable and does not impact any board member’s election by his/her constituents. We are often reminded that term limits in Illinois are long overdue as an effective means to curtailing the corruption associated with long-serving public officials. Supporters of the current rules, including the states attorney’s office,

GUEST VIEW Ersel Schuster threaten that we may be looking at a lawsuit should someone challenge these proposed rules. However, we know that laws are challenged all the time. In addition, the likelihood that persons seeking elected office would challenge the rules is limited by projecting the appearance they are being self-serving and powerhungry. Third is the concept of limiting the chairman’s appointment power over various boards and commissions. Statutes often say “the chairman appoints with the approval of the county board.” However, in nearly all cases, the McHenry County Board’s practice has been to notice the public of open positions; a board committee interviews the candidates; the best candidate is recommended to the chairman; the chairman moves that nominee

to the full board for final approval. The proposed changes establish a method of making appointments by formalizing a transparent and open appointment process for the community. This appointment process is critical for these agencies/boards as they have the authority to make decisions impacting the management and allocation of huge sums of tax dollars. When one person – i.e. a chairman – unilaterally makes these appointment recommendations, family, friends and cronies are far more likely to be recommended. It also puts the 23 other members in the unfortunate position of approving appointments, often without benefit of public notice and/or an open interview process. Examples include the public’s questions, concerns and frustrations over the 708 Mental Health Board and the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) appointments. Point number four: Election of the county board chairman at large. No one suggests the public not have the opportunity to vote on the

chairman-at-large question. However, the voters were clear when they defeated a referendum on an executive form of county government. They were wise enough to know that another layer of government is not the answer to what they see as untouchable, runaway, bigbrother government, and the danger of consolidated power in the hands one person. Look at the state of Illinois under House Speaker Michael Madigan’s one-man rule. Springfield is the poster child for proving what damage one person, with the willing support of those aligned with him, can inflict on a state. McHenry County need not replicate this. When the public is increasingly withdrawing from the electoral process out of sheer disillusionment and distrust in their representatives, these rules changes fit the times and are a huge step in bringing county government back to its citizens. • Ersel Schuster represents District 6 on the McHenry County Board

WOMAN IN CRASH GOES TO HOSPITAL McHENRY – A 41-year-old woman was taken to a hospital via Flight for Life Friday with serious injuries after her Jeep rolled over, the McHenry Township Fire Protection District said. At 7:13 p.m., firefighters responded to a call of a single-vehicle accident on River Road near the McHenry Dam State Park, Battalion Chief Dave Harwood said. The driver, whose name was not released, was trapped inside, Harwood said. It took about 10 minutes to extricate her. She was flown to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville with serious injuries, Harwood said. River Road was closed for about 50 minutes, Harwood said. The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the crash.

D-46 board hears criticism Former business manager describes atmosphere as ‘toxic’ By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com PRAIRIE GROVE – The atmosphere at Prairie Grove District 46 is “toxic,” its former business manager recently told the school board. Andy Searle was the district’s business manager for three years before leaving the district for a job with Mundelein High School. He is one of three administrators to leave the district this summer.

The school board conducted exit interviews with all three administrators, who submitted their resignations before the new board took office. But because Searle’s came after his contract was up, his interview was not conducted behind closed doors like the others. Searle had been offered the option of conducting the exit interview in open session or talking privately with two school board members who would then report to the full board in open session, School Board President

Margaret Ponga said. Searle raved about District 46, complimenting the teachers, administrators and parents. His years at Prairie Grove were the best of his career, he said, and despite the fact that his new job pays better and is in Mundelein where he lives and his kids went to school, he probably never would have considered leaving if not for the atmosphere at the district. “There seems to be a culture of

Chairs are being placed throughout downtown Marengo for display and the enjoyment of those who visit. As a fundraiser for the operations and projects of Marengo Main Street, the chairs are available via a silent auction throughout the summer.

By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Mary Ann Schopen and Margaret Mayer said they will miss running a book club where reading books was optional. Schopen and Mayer, co-organizers of the Crystal Lake Book Club, officially ended the 61-year-old organization Friday as they donated the club’s remaining $776.89 to the Crystal Lake Public Library. It was a fitting end to the club that came into existence the same year the library was established at its current location, 126 Paddock St. “The money should stay in our own community and what better place than a library,” Schopen said. Library director Kathryn Martens said the club was a great example of the importance of lifelong learning and the continuous improvement of reading skills and comprehension needed in all phases of life. But the club was never bound by books. The roughly 40-member organization would meet about seven times a year and schedule living history demonstrations, discussions with established authors, local history presentations or even games of bridge. Schopen recalled a presentation from well-known Chicago author Rick Kogan who was shocked when he asked what book the club was reading only to hear Schopen say they don’t read books.

ecoleman@shawmedia.com SPRING GROVE – Each year the near space balloon project at Spring Grove Elementary School gets a bit more complicated. Its organizer, Paul Kaup, who started volunteering at the school through Southwest Airlines’ AdoptA-Pilot program, hopes to continue that trend. He launched a page on a crowdfunding website – a method of soliciting typically small donations from the public instead of the more traditional routes of seeking corporate sponsorships or fundraising through sales – that he hopes will raise enough money to expand the program to Nippersink Middle School and Richmond-Burton Community High School. The crowdfunding drive was picked as one of 24 finalists by the magazine Popular Science and the website that hosts the projects, RocketHub. The #CrowdGrant finalists will be promoted by the national publication.

LAKE IN THE HILLS – Some entities that can have clothing collection bins in town could soon see changes. The village in recent years has seen an increase in the number of donation collection bins being placed in the community, according to village documents. Under current rules, the bins have to be for not-forprofit entities. Presently there are about a dozen bins in town. However, for-profit companies recently have been placing bins around the village and officials have asked them to be removed. “Through our enforcement efforts and research, we have determined that some of the operators of the for-profit bins are the same as the not-for-profit ones, but just under a different name,” Community Development Director Dan Olson wrote in a village memo. “This has caused difficulties in enforcing our regulations.” Village officials are considering changes for how the bins are regulated. Staff has proposed allowing for-profit and nonprofit entities to

have bins. Bins would be allowed at any business and manufacturing district, at the airport, on open space, at institutional buildings or multifamily residential areas. The bins would only be for collecting clothing, shoes, books, small household items or other salvageable personal property. The village also proposed a $25-a-year licensing fee. Under the proposal, bins cannot be on vacant properties, cannot be on required parking spaces and cannot be in a required front yard or within 10 feet of a lot line. Bins cannot obstruct motorists’ sights, cannot leave less than 5-feet in width for pedestrians and cannot contain advertising of other entities. No more than three collection bins would be allowed on lots less than two acres in size.

LITH man arrested on drug charges By CHELSEA MCDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WHEATON – Two men, including a Lake in the Hills man, are facing felony drug charges after allegedly setting up a drug sale with undercover officers, authorities said.

He was arrested July 25 by the DuPage County Tactical Narcotics Team.

The men, brothers Joseph Strubin, 30, and Christopher Strubin, 32, both of Palos Park, have been charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance, a Class 3 felony. All four are being held in DuPage County Jail. Goodman and Martin are being held on $250,000 bond, and the Strubins are being held on $15,000 bond. The most serious charges carry a sentence of six to 30 years in prison. The DuPage County Tactical Narcotics Team worked in conjunction with the Chicago Police Department and the Woodridge Police Tactical Unit.

some may become ill three to 14 days after being bit by an infected mosquito, the release stated. About two out of every 10 people who are bitten by an infected mosquito will experience illness.

West Nile virus is transmitted through the bite of a mosquito that got the virus from an infected bird. While most people with the virus show no symptoms of illness,

50 and older have the highest risk of serious illness. The Kane County Health Department says the best way to prevent West Nile virus and other mosquito-borne illness is to reduce the number of mosquitoes around the home. Additional steps include: • Avoiding the outdoors during dusk and dawn, when mosquitoes are most active. • Wearing long sleeves,

No collection bins in Algonquin • LITH Continued from page B1 No more than four bins would be allowed on lots greater than two acres. Bins cannot exceed 7 feet in height and 25 square feet in area. They also have to be located on a paved surface. The bins would need to have contact information on them. “We tried to make them reasonable, nothing outlandish,” Olson said. Olson said from a legal perspective, it is not advisable to only allow nonprof-

its to have collection bins in town. Bins for both types of entities usually take up the same amount of space and usually look the same, Olson said. Olson said there is a need for these bins for community service purposes. Trustee Ray Bogdanowski agreed there is a need for the bins. “I’m just wondering, if we’re saying remove the 501(c)(3), we’re saying, ‘If I could meet these guidelines, anyone can do this,’ ” Bogdanowski said. According to a survey conducted by Village

Building Commissioner Mike Magnussen, communities such as Crystal Lake, McHenry, Fox River Grove, Barrington and West Dundee do not allow donation collection bins. Algonquin allows collection bins, but they would have to be inside or screened from public view at the rear of the building. However, there are no collection bins in Algonquin. Carol Stream allows them in certain types of zoning districts. Lincolnwood allows them, but has restrictions and a $100 license fee.

• SCIENCE Kaup hopes the exposure will give the project an edge in getting picked by RocketHub’s other partner, the A&E channel, for its Project Startup initiative. Kaup started working with Spring Grove Elementary’s fifth-graders in 2010 following the curriculum provided by the Adopt-APilot program, but a few years later, he was inspired by another pilot, Scott Fitzgerald in Edwardsville, who worked with his students to launch a near space balloon. In spring 2012, Kaup followed suit, launching a balloon outfitted with a GPS and a camera. The next year, the video was transmitted live back down to mission control. (Kaup had to get an amateur radio license.) “It was such a big hit,” he said. “The kids love it. They gravitate toward it. What I like is that they’re learning without even realizing they’re learning.” They’re learning how a GPS system works, how to read maps, how to predict where the balloon will land and some of the lingo pilots use, fifth-grade teacher Denise Kottke-Christensen said. They’re expected to go out and brainstorm and then come back in and work as a team, said Rebecca Kottke, another fifth-grade teacher. (The teachers are not related.) The students have been so excited by the project that

• D-46 Continued from page B1 Teachers were told the $100-deductible plan they had was the best plan offered, but that wasn’t true, Searle said. There was a zero-deductible plan. There also was a discrepancy between family plans and single plans, he said. It was this distrust that made negotiations with the 74-member Prairie Grove Teachers’ Association so difficult, Searle said. A contract was eventually worked out in November after a one-day strike and

two years of teachers working under an expired contract. The Northwest Herald had requested an interview with either or both of the union’s co-presidents, Paulina Levy and Kathy Krepel, but they declined saying they wanted to both be present, which wasn’t possible because of scheduling. In a joint email, they offered to issue a statement answering the Herald’s questions, but they had not responded to the Herald’s Thursday email by Friday afternoon. The other administrators who left – Assistant Princi-

pal Beth Klinsky and curriculum, assessment and learning coordinator Sandy Ozimek – did not respond to requests for interviews. The resignations are not a cause for concern, said Ponga, who took over as board president after she and three other new board members were voted in this April. All three administrators left to take better jobs with other districts, moving up in their careers. When asked what she thought about Searle’s comments, she said, “I think he’s right. I think we have a fantastic district with fantastic teachers and fantas-

tic parents.” As for the assessment of the district’s atmosphere as toxic, she replied that she wouldn’t use that term. “I think all districts are always working to improve the communications internally and within the community,” she said. “Our board is 100 percent committed to providing open and honest and continual communication with employees and the community.” Communication has improved since the strike last year, said Cynthia Jones, the president of the parent-teacher organization.

they’ve been researching all the different aspects, she said. One girl researched the different types of balloons they could buy, down to the different materials, what they would cost and the volume of gas they could hold. “From the beginning of the day, it’s almost like a tidal wave of excitement,” Kottke-Christensen said. “The kids know they get to watch the balloon go up. The whole school comes out. There’s a lot of screaming and shouting as the balloon goes up.” Most of the cost of running the program has been covered by Kaup. He’s received some help from corporate sponsors and the Spring Grove Elementary School parent-teacher organization. Kaup doesn’t mind the cost, but he figures with a little more funding he can expand Spring Grove’s program and the one run by Fitzgerald. The project – nicknamed Project Reach for the Stars on RocketHub – has a goal of $5,000, and as of Friday afternoon, it was 17 percent there. “[Kaup] has big goals for the students over the next several years.” Kottke said. “He has a starting place and who knows what it could be further down the road.”

“I think parents may grumble with the school board and the teachers may grumble about the administration, but it’s not anything more than what other districts have,” she said. She would like to see the district work on communication, possibly through brown-bag lunches, where residents, teachers and parents can feel more comfortable talking about their concerns. “I never feel like talking [at school board meetings], and I’m on the PTO,” Jones said. “I don’t want to take their time.

Library celebrating 100 years • BOOK Continued from page B1 Kogan even talked about the reading-is-optional book club on his radio show the next night. “A lot of the things we did would make people curious, and then they would read the books from that author or on whatever we were talking about,” Schopen said. “It’s inspiring to hear the authors. The ones who conceive and imagine [the story].” Mayer said with most members battling distance and age, it was time to end the club and hope places such as the library will inspire new energy and ideas among

young people. Linda Price, public relations coordinator for the library, said the existing book clubs and special 100th anniversary events happening this year have the same mission as the Crystal Lake Book Club – to inspire lifelong learning. The library even invited Kogan to give a similar presentation during a Sept. 22 event as part of its anniversary celebration. “This is particularly meaningful to us as it’s the library’s 100-year anniversary and 1952, the year that this book club began, was the year that the library was built on our current site,” Price said. “It’s an honor to be chosen.”

With yesterday’s weather and today’s forecast, it feels as if summer has slipped away already! Tell me there is some old phrase to the effect of “July leaving like a lion and August being a lamb of a month.” With the eighth month just around the corner, I thought it would be a good time to check in on how this summer has been so far. For me, there have been the usual activities: walking the dog at night, getting ice cream, mowing the lawn, a few sticky nights in our un-airconditioned house and eating as many meals outside as possible. But I have added a few new things too.

JULY 27 & 28 GALLERY IN THE GARDEN LAWNDALE AVE., WOODSTOCK It is the eighth year for this annual event that features the work of locals artists, live music and art-in-nature activities presented in a private garden. Proceeds beneﬁt Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of McHenry County. Free admission. From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m both days.

Three Oaks Recreation Area – I made my first trip out to Three Oaks just last month and I really enjoyed it. Since I live in town, I am able to both park and get into the beach area for free. This has become part of my weekend ritual. With a blanket and some food in tow, I spend about three to four hours relaxing in the sun and reading my book on both Saturdays and Sundays. Candy Crush – I have finally joined the millions of other people and started playing this addictive game on my phone. Daughter had me download it when we went to the Cubs game and endured a 2 hour rain delay. It turned out to be a great time filler; I was

going to say time waster but everybody needs that one thing they can pick up for ﬁve to ten minutes when waiting on something. Son is an expert and just cannot understand how I am stuck on level 65. Hey, at least I have completed more levels than my age! Fresh Produce – I haven’t been to the farmers’ market yet but my friend here at work has been very generous this summer. She has shared fresh raspberries and crazy lettuce varieties with me. I even made a trip out to her garden and picked some myself. I am now anxiously awaiting her extra tomatoes and zucchini. And you know who else has really enjoyed the lettuce? Yes, the four-legged beast is a big fan! I ask him every morning, as I am packing my lunch, “do you want some of Auntie Teresa’s lettuce?” Of course, he says yes. This upcoming week is Vacation Prep before our annual family trip to Michigan. I am sure you can imagine the lists, the shopping, the laundry and the double-checking that will occur over the next seven days. Wish the Golfer in my Life good luck as it’s not an easy week at our house. And if you happen to see him, tell him to remember to pack his swimsuit! Try to make the best of this crummy weather!

“Turbo” HH½ STARRING: (voices of) Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Samuel L. Jackson PLOT: A freak accident might just help an everyday garden snail achieve his biggest dream: winning the Indy 500. RATED: PG for some mild action and thematic elements TIME: 1 hour, 35 minutes VERDICT: An attractively designed but narratively challenged, one-note film, “Turbo” skews younger than the norm for big animated features these days and has limited appeal for little girls. Of course, the message of the film, as with so many other kid-inspirational cartoons and other fantasies, is that no dream is too big, you can do anything if you set your mind to it, etc., etc. Unfortunately, the real embedded lesson of Turbo is that, if you’re too small or weak or otherwise incapable of greatness, you have a shot to win if you’re juiced. Which is what happens late one night when Turbo, coming upon a “Fast & Furious”-style drag race in the dry LA River bed, gets sucked into an engine. Instead of being toasted, however, the little guy becomes infused with nitrous oxide, enabling him to zoom along the ground seemingly as fast as Superman shoots through the skies. Ahhh, the wonders of chemicals and strength enhancers. Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire would approve. The ultimate destination – Indianapolis – is inevitable, but it takes a long time to get there, given a script that is short on invention and long on largely unfunny yacking. In the run-up to the race and then during it, you

mostly wonder about how a critter so small it can’t be seen on the track (although its blue/white-hot streak can be) will avoid being crunched by the giant tires of the humans’ racing machines; indeed, the film’s most irreverent merit is that it is periodically honest about the fate of snails by casually showing them getting squashed by humans or gobbled up by animals, especially crows. In the event, Turbo just zips through traffic as if in an obstacle course, the obvious longshot pipsqueak favorite in a field of giants. – Todd McCarthy, The

Hollywood Reporter

“The Wolverine” HHH STARRING: Hugh Jackman, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima, Famke Janssen PLOT: Summoned to Tokyo to bid farewell to an old, dying friend, Wolverine (Jackman) finds himself in the middle of warring factions of the man’s family, corrupt politicians, Yakuza

and ninjas. After saving the man’s granddaughter (Okamoto) Wolverine discovers he is losing the healing ability that keeps him immortal. RATING: PG-13 for sequences of intense science-fiction action and violence, some sexuality and language TIME: 2 hours, 6 minutes VERDICT: As directed by James Mangold (“3:10 to Yuma”) the second solo Wolverine feature (the first should be forgotten) strives mightily to separate itself from the look and conventions of the modern comic book movie. It succeeds handsomely for most of its running time before succumbing to a standard comic book climax. The Japanese locations and milieu lend a unique look and feel, and Jackman’s morose soul carries the themes of death and rebirth. A fight atop a speeding bullet train is a standout action sequence. – Jeffrey

Garth Brooks a granddaddy THINGS

Garth Brooks is a grandpa. The country music superstar acknowledged in a statement Friday the birth of his first grandchild, Karalynn, who was born to his daughter August earlier this week. The 51-year-old “Friends in Low Places” singer says he’d like to thank everyone “for their warm wishes and sweet celebration of Baby K’s arrival.” Country music’s best-selling performer has been in semiretirement as he raises his daughters in Oklahoma. He’ll have another girl around the house now. August was the second to graduate from high school, and Brooks says he’s considering a full-time return to recording and performing when his youngest, Allie, graduates from high school next year.

Miley Cyrus returns to TV

Judge puts off Bynes ruling A California judge delayed making a decision Friday on whether former child star Amanda Bynes should be put under the conservatorship of her parents. Ventura County Superior Court Judge Glen M. Reiser said there was no rush to act on the request by Bynes’ parents because the actress is under a twoweek psychiatric hold at a hospital. Reiser scheduled a hearing on the issue Aug. 9 and said he also wants to meet one-on-one with Bynes before making a decision. The 27-year-old actress’ behavior has become increasingly bizarre over the past year. Bynes was put under the psychiatric hold Monday after authorities said she set a fire on the driveway of a home in the Los Angeles suburb of Thousand Oaks, where she grew up. In May, Bynes was arrested in New York for allegedly throwing a marijuana bong out the window of her 36th-floor Manhattan apartment. Police had come to the apartment to investigate a complaint that she had been smoking marijuana in the building’s lobby. Last year, Bynes was charged in Los Angeles with driving on a suspended license, the license having been suspended after she was charged with driving under the influence and misdemeanor hit-and-run. Bynes, who was only 13 when she landed her own hit variety program, “The Amanda Show” on the Nickelodeon cable network, went on to star in the TV series “What I Like About You” and several movies, including “What a Girl Wants,” “Hairspray” and “She’s the Man.”

MTV will become Miley Television this fall. The 20-year-old actress-singer is getting a one-hour documentary – not yet titled – on the music network. The announcement was made Friday by MTV Programming President Susanne Daniels at the annual Television Critics Association Miley Cyrus summer press tour in Beverly Hills, Calif. Cameras will follow Cyrus as she works on her new album, which is due out later this year.

Ocean suffers vocal tear Frank Ocean is canceling the rest of his Australian live shows because of a tear on his vocal cords. Live Nation posted on its Facebook page early Friday the Grammy winner was told by doctors to rest his voice after performing in Melbourne’s Festival Hall Thursday night. Ocean’s representative confirmed the ailment.

Wes Studi arrested on drunken driving Actor Wes Studi, well-known for his roles in “Dances with Wolves” and “The Last of the Mohicans,” was arrested early Friday for aggravated drunken driving in New Mexico, Santa

Fe police confirmed. According to a criminal complaint, Studi, 66, was arrested about 1 a.m. Friday while at a stop sign. The actor was in a 2005 black Volvo with two front tires blown out, police said. The complaint said that before officers arrived, a witness saw Studi try to “repair the vehicle’s damaged tires in the middle of the road without the vehicle lights on.” When an officer asked Studi to step out of the car, the complaint said Studi “needed to use the vehicle to keep his balance and then stumbled to (the officer’s) patrol vehicle.” Officers at the scene said Studi slurred his speech and his breath smelled of alcohol. Santa Fe police spokeswoman Celina Westervelt said Studi refused breath, field and blood tests. He was booked into jail on an aggravated DWI charge.

‘Breaking Bad’ doc follows drama When “Breaking Bad” ends this season, fans will be left with a documentary that recounts the show’s history. Series creator Vince Gilligan says the film is comprehensive and, in his words, really good. He says it may be available exclusively as part of the series’ complete box set on Blu-ray and possibly DVD. Speaking Friday to the Television Critics Association, Gilligan predicted that most fans will “dig the ending” when “Breaking Bad” concludes its run later this year. The second half of the show’s final season begins Aug. 11 on AMC.

Boyfriend’s man-of-mystery act causes woman to wonder Dear Abby: My boyfriend and I have been dating for a year, and it has been wonderful. He’s amazing and sweet. We went to the movies for our anniversary, and about 50 minutes into it, he turned to me, said he didn’t like the movie and he wanted to leave. I was enjoying it, but I didn’t want to force him to watch it, so we left. When we were out of the theater, I asked him why he didn’t like it, and he told me he didn’t want to discuss it. I pressured him for an answer a little bit, but he told me to forget it. This has been bugging me. Should I leave it alone?

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips I understand it’s not that big a deal, but he has done this a few times before – not explaining things when I ask. I am confused about why he won’t tell me. – Puzzled In

The Multiplex Dear Puzzled: There may have been something in the movie that made your boyfriend uncomfortable. Perhaps it triggered a memory of something in his past he didn’t want to be reminded of. Or, he may have been bored by the film and so cen-

tered on himself he didn’t care you were enjoying it. Your boyfriend may be wonderful and amazing, but he also appears to be a poor communicator. This would be a deal-breaker with some women. Only he can tell you why he’s this way, but if he hasn’t opened up in the year you have been seeing each other, it isn’t likely to change. Dear Abby: My husband has erectile dysfunction for which he takes medication. He gets it from a friend. I have discovered he takes the medication with him when he travels. He swears he isn’t cheating on me and that he’s faithful. Should I

believe him? – Suspicious In Arizona Dear Suspicious: I confess, my knee-jerk reaction after reading your letter was, “Uh-oh!” Then I picked up the phone and called Bruce Landres, M.D., in Los Angeles. His first words were, “That’s an interesting question.” He then went on to say that if your husband has prostate problems in addition to his erectile dysfunction, you should believe him, because last October the FDA approved a low dose of one particular E.D. drug for the treatment of benign prostate hypertrophy (BPH). (This low dose is not enough to assist in infidel-

ity.) You should discuss this further with your husband because it would be much safer for him to get this kind of medication from his physician, who knows his medical history, since E.D. drugs can sometimes cause serious side effects. P.S. Another thought: It’s also possible your husband watches adult videos when he travels and needs “the pill” for his own entertainment. You’ll never know unless you ask him. Dear Abby: My motherin-law passed away five months ago. I was given the option of taking a winter coat of hers, which I gladly

Enlarged hernia should be repaired Dear Dr. K: I have an inguinal hernia. Do I need to have it repaired? If so, what will the procedure involve? Dear Reader: An inguinal hernia occurs when part of the intestine bulges through a weak spot in the abdominal wall, near the groin. The bulge can be small or large. There is a wall of tissue between our intestines and other abdominal organs and the skin of our belly. That wall is composed of muscles and a tough layer called fascia. You see the muscles when a person has trained his abdominal muscles so intensively that he has “washboard abs.” That wall of tissue is supposed to keep the intestines and other abdominal organs inside the abdomen. But holes can develop in that wall. When a part of the intestines pushes out through the hole, it’s called a hernia. When the hernia occurs in a particular area in the groin, it’s called an inguinal hernia. (I’ve put an illustration of an inguinal hernia on my website.) Men are more likely than women to develop this kind of hernia. At first, an inguinal hernia may not cause symptoms, or it may cause only

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff heaviness or pressure in the groin. As the hernia grows, it produces an abnormal bulge under the skin near the groin. It is likely to become larger and more uncomfortable until it is repaired. As the hernia enlarges, there’s a small chance a portion of herniated intestine may become trapped and unable to slide back into the abdomen. If this happens, the trapped intestine can twist and die because its blood supply is cut off. An inguinal hernia will not heal on its own. If your hernia is causing any symptoms, or has become even a little larger, you should talk to your doctor about having it surgically repaired. Hernia repair may be done through open or laparoscopic surgery. Both usually are done on an outpatient basis. Most inguinal hernias are repaired by open surgery. The surgeon makes an incision in your groin, then pushes the herniated tissue

back into place. He or she repairs the hernia – the hole in the wall of tissue – by stitching together the edges of the hole. It’s no different from stitching together a hole in a shirt. A small piece of synthetic mesh material reinforces the area to prevent another hernia. In laparoscopic hernia repair, a surgeon makes small incisions in the abdominal wall. He or she then inflates the abdomen with a harmless gas and inserts a laparoscope, a tube-like instrument with a small video camera and surgical instruments, through the incisions. Viewing the internal scene on a monitor, the surgeon pushes the herniated intestine back into place. The hernia opening is repaired with surgical staples. Laparoscopic surgery usually has a faster recovery time than open surgery. There are advantages and disadvantages to both types of surgery. Talk to your surgeon about which option is best for you.

MIXED MARTIAL ARTS

Zbilski devoted to martial arts By MAREK MAKOWSKI mmakowski@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Rob Zbilski’s definition of success is different than that of other kickboxing coaches. Zbilski is at a point in his life where he’s looking to re-create past success while creating fuSarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com ture success. Rather than striving for high Rob Zbilski trains Tuesday with Meryl Swidler, 16, of Gilenrollment numbers or numerberts at Z’s Martial Arts Academy in Huntley.

ous champions, he wants his martial arts school, Team Z’s, to “cater to many things.” He’s done that so far, meaning that at one part of the day he watches children learn karate, while at others he sees kickboxers spar for their next national tournament. Some of that success of the past was with the high enrollment numbers and numerous champions in the 1990s

and 2000s. The walls of Z’s are adorned with several championship belts that belong to perhaps Zbilski’s most promising champion, Simon Buettner of Carpentersville, who’s a 24-yearold professional boxer. He’s won nine national kickboxing championships, the Chicago Golden Gloves and a ring’s worth of other accomplishments.

‘Same old defense’ holds key to success

Martellus Bennett stands out on first day

BOURBONNAIS – Have you ever had that unpleasant dream when it’s the first day of school and you’re completely unprepared? Chris Conte had that dream Friday, except it wasn’t a dream. The Bears’ thirdyear safety was waiting for a new pair of Chris Conte cleats to arrive when 7-on-7 drills started at a breakneck pace. “It was early in practice,” Conte said after the Bears’ first training camp practice at Olivet Nazarene University. “I didn’t even have the right shoes on. My shoes weren’t tied. I didn’t have my gloves on.” Seconds later, Conte stepped forward and intercepted Jay Cutler’s first pass of training camp. Seriously. “Untied shoes and no gloves,” said a grinning Conte, who was the first player praised by Marc Trestman after practice. “It’s just one of those things. The ball happened to land in the right place, and I got it.” Imagine how good this defense could be once everyone’s shoes are tied. So much about the Bears seemed new and unfamiliar when players took the field in shorts, shoulder pads and helmets for an early-morning practice beneath an overcast sky. Trestman and most of his assistants were new. The playbook was new. Even a chilly breeze in July felt new. But there was the Bears’ defense, flying around the field and taking the ball away like it was 2012. No hitting was allowed, but Conte picked off a deflected pass by Cutler to open the Bears’ passing drills, and veteran nickelback Kelvin Hayden notched his first interception when he stepped in front of a Cutler pass intended for Earl Bennett.

BOURBONNAIS – In this season of firsts for the Bears, all eyes were on the offense during the first practice of training camp. How did it go? As the first whistle blew at 9 a.m., the sky darkened and it began to rain as the wind picked up and temperatures dropped toward the 60s. Please, please tell Martellus us this wasn’t Bennett a harbinger of things to come. On his first pass attempt, Jay Cutler was intercepted by Chris Conte on a ball deflected en route to Brandon Marshall, in part because it was thrown behind the All-Pro receiver. The first penalty of training camp belonged to Bears Pro Bowl left tackle Jermon Bushrod for a false start, and Cutler’s second pass was juggled twice by his new tight end, Martellus Bennett, before he finally hauled it in. You really can’t make this stuff up. Actually, it really wasn’t all that bad and the sordid details above are almost all of what went wrong at Camp Trestman, Day One. In fact, the new head coach told us immediately after practice that, for the most part, he thought his club executed well on both sides of the ball and that he was particularly pleased with Cutler, who he thought was “extremely sharp.” I can’t agree that Cutler was all that sharp, as he was inaccurate on more than a couple of throws, a problem that has dogged him throughout his career and one of the particular traits Trestman was brought in to fix. But Cutler was completely engaged, clearly in command and focused on leading and communicating constantly with quarterbacks coach Matt Cavanaugh. The guy who really stood out for me was Bennett, not Earl but Martellus, as it couldn’t have been any clearer that he is going to be this offense’s second or third option after Marshall and Alshon Jeffery.

BEARS TRAINING CAMP BREAKDOWNS: DEFENSIVE LINEMEN

Watch for Wootton to earn starting role McClellin tries to build on solid rookie season

Editor’s note This is the third in a series of Bears positional breakdowns from the staff of HubArkush.com.

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@shawmedia.com It all starts up front – just ask the Bears’ secondary about their success taking the ball away, and they’ll quickly give credit to the ferocious defensive line, led by right defensive end Julius Peppers. The 33-year-old has not missed a game since 2007 and racked up 11½ sacks, 13 tackles for loss, 15 quarterback hits and four fumble recoveries last season. He plays through injuries and is still one of the best pass rushers in the game. Opposite Peppers will be a new starter, as the Bears did not re-sign Israel Idonije. Corey Wootton, who shined late last season, will likely get the nod as the starting left defensive end. Wootton is entering the final year of his rookie deal, adding extra incentive. He has good size for the position, can defend the run well and racked up seven sacks in 2012. Even with the new staff, 2012 first-round pick Shea McClellin is expected to remain with his hand in the dirt at defensive end as op-

Lathan Goumas – lgoumas@shawmedia.com

Defensive end Corey Wootton stretches Friday during the first day of Bears training camp in Bourbonnais. He could be the Bears’ starting left end this season. posed to linebacker. He notched six quarterback hits and 2½ sacks last season, but only seven total tackles. More will be expected from McClellin in his second campaign. Veterans Turk McBride and Kyle Moore add depth at the end spot, along with sixth-round pick Cornelius Washington, who is explosive and brings a powerful bull rush and had some second- and third-round grades prior to the draft. Quick: Who is the fourth-highest

paid Bears player in 2013? It’s defensive tackle Henry Melton, who will play on a one-year franchise tag worth $8.45 million after the two sides couldn’t come to terms on a multi-year deal. Melton again will be playing for a new contract and showed how disruptive he could be from the interior last season with nine tackles for loss, six sacks and two forced fumbles. Melton, a former collegiate running, has nice athleticism for a guy

pushing 300 pounds. Next to Melton is Stephen Paea, who has great strength and a thick build to plug the middle. Veterans Nate Collins and former first-round pick Sedrick Ellis are the top reserves at defensive tackle. Ellis has never lived up to his draft pick, and signed a $1 million deal for 2013. Position battles: The starters are set along the line, meaning that any noteworthy competition will come for the backup spots to make the roster. At end, Moore is worth watching, as he showed some pass-rushing prowess with the Bills last season totaling nine quarterback hits. He’ll compete with McBride and Washington – the Bears began the 2012 season with only four ends. Ellis and Collins could be competing for roster spots behind Melton and Paea on the interior, depending how many tackles the team elects to keep. Contract situations: Along with the secondary, the defensive line has the most financial intrigue heading into the 2013 season.

Two starters, Wootton and Melton, have expiring contracts. Wootton will be looking to cash in on his first deal, and with a solid year in his first season starting, he should get a long-term contract. Melton, who is playing on the franchise tag in ’13, could get tagged again, but will aim to put up big numbers to earn the multi-year deal he wanted this offseason. Peppers is signed through the 2015 season, but could be due for a restructuring, especially at his age. His cap hit in 2013 is more than $16 million, and that increases to $17.1 million next season. What to watch in camp: This position doesn’t feature any battles for starting spots, but there are some individual storylines to monitor this summer. How will McClellin handle his second full season in the league? Can Wootton build off the end of last season and cement himself as a long-term starter? Peppers and Melton are two of the team’s four highest-paid players and will be expected to frequent opposing backfields often this season for the Bears’ defense to avoid skipping a beat. Behind the starters, observers should keep an eye on Ellis, who is trying to get his career on track and shed the “bust” label. The rookie Washington will try to make an impression with his pass rushing.

BEARS NOTES

Healthy Bears dress all 90 players on first day of camp By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@shawmedia.com BOURBONNAIS – In a sport known for its slew of injuries, the Bears actually began training camp at full health, with all 90 players dressed for the first practice on Friday, though one starter was missing from the full team drills early on. Defensive tackle Henry Melton, who signed an $8.45 million franchise tender for the season, took a little time before getting into the action. Nate Collins ran with the firstteam defensive line next to Stephen Paea before Melton got a few reps in.

“I was trying to get over a little sickness I had, so they were taking care of me,” Melton said about his early absence. When asked if it was the flu or food poisoning, Melton laughed. “A little bit of both.” Melton reiterated that the defense is very much the same Henry under new coordinaMelton tor Mel Tucker. “Mel might mix up some things; he might add his own twists on some things, but it’s pretty much the same,” he said. An impressive interior pass

rusher who notched six sacks last season, Melton eventually made his presence felt when he got on the field, knocking down two passes, something he knows ticks off his quarterback. “I always try to make Cutler mad,” Melton said. “He doesn’t like when I do that. Neither does the O-line, they want to throw me down when I do.” Speed it up: During team drills – 11-on-11 work – the Bears picked up the practice pace, something we’ve come to know is a preference of Trestman. At one point, the head coach yelled, “It’s not a symposium, get the play going!”

TE Bennett keeps in Cutler’s ear • ARKUSH Continued from page C1 After being surprised by that first Cutler pass to him, he caught everything in his zip code and seemed to be Cutler’s favorite target. Best of all, this guy loves an audience. Commenting on his relationship with Cutler, Bennett told a small group of reporters, “I know Jay really well, I talk to him after every single play because it’s something I saw (Tony) Romo and (Jason) Witten do in Dallas and it worked really well for them. Of course, I always come back to the huddle and tell him I was open on every single play because I don’t want him to throw the ball to anyone else.”

The tight end went on to explain, “I sit right behind Jay in all the film meetings and whisper in his ear. I know it sounds kind of creepy, but I think it’s important. Of course, Jay gets up and walks away from me all the time.” Asked how he’s assimilating to his new team and all his new teammates, Bennett said, “Well, of course I’m probably the most interesting person on the team, but I’m loving this. It’s fun, kind of like going to a new school.” What’s great about Bennett is none of his bluster comes off as arrogance, he just seems to want to have fun. And while almost anyone would dread a new school, Bennett is embracing his. Of course, Rome wasn’t built in a day, and Trestman’s offense won’t be either. But

the combination of Cutler continuing to appear to be starting to “get it,” and Bennett wanting and enjoying it so much put a nice punctuation mark on the first practice. Reality is that Bennett was never able to challenge Witten for serious playing time in Dallas and, given a chance to be the man in New York last year, he was more just a guy than a real giant. But the Giants’ offense wasn’t built to feature and target Bennett the way this Bears offense appears to be, and the early returns are extremely promising. • Hub Arkush covers the Bears for Shaw Media and HubArkush.com.

Briggs: Defense tethered to details • MUSICK Continued from page C1 Bennett and his offensive teammates were forced to wait while Hayden raced toward the opposite goal line as part of the defense’s traditional victory sprint after every takeaway. “Same old defense,” Bennett said. “They’re out here trying to strip balls, interceptions, takeaways.” Trestman and his new-look offense will hog most of the training camp headlines, and rightfully so. But if the Bears are serious about improving upon a 10-win season and becoming a Super Bowl team, they will need the defense to be dominant again. In 2012, the Bears’ defense led the NFL with 44 takeaways while finishing No. 3 in fewest points allowed and No. 5 in fewest yards allowed. The Bears set a franchise record

with nine defensive touchdowns, falling one score shy of the all-time record set by the 1998 Seattle Seahawks. The architects of that defense – Lovie Smith and Rod Marinelli – are long gone. So is Brian Urlacher, who served as a player-coach Lance Briggs on the field. This is Mel Tucker’s defense now. D.J. Williams and James Anderson have replaced Urlacher and Nick Roach at linebacker, while Lance Briggs is calling plays on defense for the first time since college. Briggs took exception when a reporter suggested the defense was tethered to Smith. “Our defense was tethered to details,” Briggs said. “We’ve always been tethered to details no matter if it was

under Tony Dungy or Lovie or Ron Rivera. That’s the one thing we’ll continue to do. It’s a defense that’s based on how we play, not necessarily what we’re playing.” They’re playing really fast. So far, they’re playing really well. “Our practices are quick, they’re fast, the tempo is really quick,” Conte said. “I think it is going to make the games easier. We’re going to be in much better shape than we ever have been in. “It will get us ready for teams like Philadelphia, if they come out and do hurry-up stuff. That seems like how the league is turning now, so we’ll be ready for it.” Better double-knot those laces. • Northwest Herald sports columnist Tom Musick can be reached at tmusick@shawmedia.com and on Twitter @tcmusick.

His assistants are also very vocal. After practice, Trestman said the fast pace is designed to create chaos for the Bears to better prepare them for Sundays. “Things happen so fast on Sunday that if we can create that environment as much as possible here – more game-like – we hope that they’ll play better and we believe they will,” he explained. Brown vs. Long, Day One: The only position battle on offense is at right guard. James Brown got the first reps, as expected, and then firstround pick Kyle Long slid in with the first team. Long missed minicamp because of his graduation.

“They want to see me on film because they didn’t have an opportunity to see me in the OTAs or the minicamps, so it makes sense,” Long said about the alternating. “I don’t make anything of it, I just want to go out and earn every rep. That’s what I’m here to do.” Highlight reel: The plays that caught the eyes of the media and fans today included a one-handed catch by Brandon Marshall, a slick pass breakup on a deep ball by cornerback Zack Bowman, interceptions by Chris Conte and Kelvin Hayden, several receptions by Martellus Bennett and a solid grab by wideout Jerrell Jackson.

The Bears appear to be attempting to clone their 6-foot-4, 230-pound WR Brandon Marshall. Alshon Jeffery (6-3, 220), Devin Aromashodu (6-2, 201), seventh- round pick Marquess Wilson (6-4, 185), Brandon rookie free agent Marshall Marcus Rucker (6-4, 185) and free agent Terrence Tolliver (6-5, 204) are all big-bodied options. Assuming Devin Hester makes the team, the Bears will likely carry just five wideouts. Marshall, Jeffery, Earl Bennett and Eric Weems will claim four spots, while one of

the large bodies above will grab the fifth. In that case, who takes Hester’s spot as the vertical threat in the slot with speed to burn? It is still extremely early and this certainly could change but over 35 years and hundreds of NFL camps, I’ve never seen a head coach with as isolated and remote a position from the rest of his staff as the territory Marc Trestman staked out today. He was yelling and coaching ‘em up from all over the field, but it was very different from anything I’ve

seen before. Lance Briggs is clearly embracing the mantle of veteran leader of this defense vacated by Brian Urlacher. In an impromptu exchange with a small herd of us outside the mess hall after lunch, Briggs spoke clearly, cogently and emphatically about what needs to be done and how he needs to do it. I was very impressed. Whether he will have Urlacher’s intuitive understanding of the defense and how to get everybody where they need to be is another question.

Soriano trade to Yanks right move It was the right time to move on, and Alfonso Soriano and Cubs president of baseball operations Theo Epstein both knew it. Friday’s trade, which sent Soriano to the New York Yankees for minor league righthander Corey Black, continued the roster overhaul which this season alone has seen pitchers Matt Garza, Scott Feldman and Carlos Marmol and outfielder Scott Hairston dealt in a series of moves with likely more to come before Wednesday’s deadline. The departure of Soriano means 28-year-old Jeff Samardzija is the longest tenured Cubs player and the only remaining from the 2008 team, the last time they made the playoffs. It also creates at-bats and a spot in the outfield for Junior Lake, who has shined since making his major league debut July 19, as well as giving manager Dale Sveum a chance to mix and match his lineup when outfielders Ryan Sweeney (fractured rib) and Brian Bogusevic (hamstring) are healthy. Epstein knew at some point that Soriano’s playing time would diminish in favor of other players. “We’re trying to secure some shorter-term assets, some longer-term assets, trying to turn some older players into younger players and give some opportunities to guys to establish themselves,” Epstein said. “That’s a big part of why this move was made.” Black, who will pitch at Advanced-A Daytona, is another young asset in the Cubs are stockpiling in the organization. Epstein said he projects as a power-arm reliever, comparing him to White Sox reliever Jesse Crain. Epstein

INSIDE THE CUBS Meghan Montemurro credited Soriano’s cooperation during trade talks and said it caused the deal to be “relatively seamless.” The Cubs will get some salary relief from moving Soriano. The Yankees reportedly will pick up about $6.8 million of the $24.5 million Soriano is owed through next season. Soriano left the Cubs hitting .286 with 10 home runs and 21 RBIs in his past 21 games. Epstein didn’t rule out the Cubs signing a free agent to a similar mega-deal, citing the talent of the player involved, how he fits the roster and whether it would impact the team from competing annually. The priority remains building a “healthy” organization with depth, Epstein said. The next important step for the Cubs is developing the young talent they have within the system and make sure they reach their respective potential. “I’m of the belief that you’re never one player away,” Epstein said. “If you think you’re one player away you’re getting desperate and you’re asking for trouble. “Looking ahead, I think we will acquire impact players through free agency. We’re just not going to build our plans around that.” • Meghan Montemurro covers the White Sox and Cubs for Shaw Media. Write to her at mmontemurro@ shawmedia.com.

White Sox starting pitcher Jose Quintana looks at the scoreboard Friday during the seventh inning of the Sox’s 5-1 loss against the Kansas City Royals at U.S. Cellular Field.

ROYALS 5, WHITE SOX 1

Quintana outdueled By JOHN JACKSON The Associated Press CHICAGO – James Shields tossed seven shutout innings, and rookie David Lough homered and drove in another run to lead the Kansas City Royals to a 5-1 victory over the White Sox on Friday night. The Royals (49-51) have won four straight and six of eight since the All-Star break. The Sox (40-60) have lost four of five. Shields (5-7) allowed eight hits and walked two but faced only one real scoring threat, working out of a bases-loaded jam in the sixth inning. The veteran right-hander, in his first season in Kansas City, has pitched better than his won-loss record might indicate. He lowered his ERA to 3.09 and has been especially effective on the road,

where he improved to 4-3 with a 2.50 ERA in 12 starts. Sox starter Jose Quintana (5-3) also pitched well but allowed two runs on six hits in seven innings to pick up the loss. Lough led off the top of the third inning with a home run into the right-field bullpen to give the Royals a 1-0 lead. That’s where the score stayed until the seventh, when the Royals stretched the lead to 2-0 on a sacrifice fly by Miguel Tejada that scored Salvador Perez, who led off the inning with a double.

The Sox’s best threat against Shields came in the sixth, when they loaded the bases with two outs. But catcher Josh Phegley grounded into a fielder’s choice to third base on the first pitch to end the inning. The Sox finally got on the board in the eighth on a solo homer by Conor Gillaspie, but the Royals added three insurance runs in the ninth on run-scoring hits by Lorenzo Cain and Mike Moustakas, and a sacrifice fly by Lough. Notes: Sox pitcher Jesse Crain, who has been on the disabled list since July 3 with a right shoulder strain, played catch Friday and said afterward, “It definitely wasn’t better today.” Crain, who has a 0.74 ERA in 38 appearances this season, said he will take four or five days off before throwing again next week.

Rodgers says he was ‘lied to’ by Braun By GENARO C. ARMAS The Associated Press GREEN BAY, Wis. – Ryan Braun apparently has some work to do to repair his friendship with Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Describing himself as shocked and disappointed, Rodgers said Friday after the Packers’ first training camp practice that Braun “looked at me in the eye on multiple occasions and repeatedly denied the allegations” that the Milwaukee Brewers slugger was using performance-enhancing drugs. Braun this week accepted a season-ending 65-game suspension after admitting to violating baseball’s rules against using PEDs. Rodgers felt duped by his buddy and business associate, a sentiment being expressed by many others in Wisconsin. A Milwaukee restaurant is named for two of the state’s most wellknown athletes, and Rodgers last year defended his friend on Twitter, going so far as to betting his multimillion-dollar salary that Braun was clean. “It’s disappointing, not only for myself as a friend

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (left) and Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun speak during batting practice before a 2011 game between the Brewers and the New York Mets in Milwaukee. Rodgers says he was “shocked” when Braun admitted he violated baseball’s rules against using performance-enhancing substances. but for obviously Wisconsin sports fans, Brewer fans, Major League Baseball fans,” Rodgers said before a throng of media surrounding his locker. “It doesn’t feel great being lied to like that, and I’m disappointed about the way it all went down.” Rodgers and Braun have

spoken since the slugger’s suspension. Asked if he considered themselves friends, Rodgers didn’t answer directly but said in part, “I trusted him, and that’s the thing that probably hurts the most.” The future of their business relationship – they’re involved in a licensing agree-

ment for the 8-twelve MVP Bar and Grill – was yet to be determined, Rodgers said. With the benefit of hindsight, Rodgers plans to take a more measured approach next time if faced a similar situation in the future. “People make mistakes. I definitely believe in forgiveness and moving forward,” Rodgers said. “Obviously, (Braun) has a tough task in front of him moving forward with his career, on and off the field.” All the attention at the first practice was atypical even for Rodgers, a former Super Bowl and NFL MVP who leads one of most dangerous passing attacks in the league. He was smiling and laughing on the field Friday, running through drills like the rest of his teammates on an overcast, breezy morning. In the locker room, however, the off-the-field questions didn’t stop at Braun. Earlier this week, former Packers receiver Greg Jennings – now with the archrival Minnesota Vikings – criticized his ex-quarterback. In an interview with the Star Tribune, Jennings questioned Rodgers’ leadership and implied the quarterback had become bigger than

the team. “Don’t get me wrong, ‘12’ is a great person,” Jennings was quoted as saying, referring to Rodgers. “But when you hear all positives, all positives, all positives all the time, it’s hard for you to sit down when one of your teammates says, ‘Man, come on, you’ve got to hold yourself accountable for this.’ It’s hard for someone to see that now because all they’ve heard is I’m doing it the right way, I’m perfect. In actuality, we all have flaws.” Rodgers said he wasn’t spending time or energy on Jennings’ comments. “To me, I’m concerned with the opinions of the guys in this locker room and the guys we have here,” Rodgers said. “It’s exciting to be able to be one of the leaders of this football team, and I’m very confident in my style.” Not surprisingly, the current Packers had the quarterback’s back. “It is what it is,” receiver Randall Cobb said about Jennings’ remarks. “Aaron is a great leader. He puts us in some great situations on and off the field. He makes it easier for us to have someone to look up to for support and leadership.”

C-G’s Hurley wins national discus title on final throw Cary-Grove junior Ricky Hurley showed his mettle in achieving one of his summer goals – winning a national track and field championship. Hurley had to deal with the disappointment of missing the finals in the shot put Thursday at the USA Track and Field National Junior OlymRicky Hurley pic Championships in Greensboro, N.C. By Friday though, Hurley channeled that frustration into the discus, which he won on his final attempt. Hurley landed a throw of 174 feet, 7 inches to beat Landon Young of Kentucky by 9 feet for the

title. “It was awesome,” Hurley said. “They had a laser marker measuring the distances and I kept looking for something over 50 meters. That one was 53.21.” The conversion to 174-7 was slightly short of Hurley’s career-best, yet more than enough to send him home happy, something he was not after failing to qualify for the shot put finals. “I didn’t have any explosion on my first two throws,” Hurley said. “On my last throw, I threw 54 feet but I scratched. I wasn’t the happiest camper.” C-G coach Layne Holter worried about Hurley beating himself up too much psychologically after his

PREP ZONE Joe Stevenson shot put performance. “I know he was really bummed out after that,” Holter said. “I’m so happy for him. His goal this summer was to be a national champion.” Hurley had the lead heading into the finals, but Young threw 165-6 to pass him on his fourth attempt. Hurley had a solid throw on his fifth attempt, then delivered the winner on his last throw. “I kept going through my technique and told myself to stay

focused and I could win it,” Hurley said. Hurley’s winning throw was the last of the competition. He placed fifth in the Class 3A discus and seventh in the shot put at the IHSA Boys Track and Field State Meet in May. Quick search: Johnsburg principal Kevin Shelton will start interviewing candidates for his school’s vacant athletic director position next week. Former AD Trevor Leopold left this week for a similar position at West Seattle (Wash.) High School, close to some family members. Shelton said he was contacting candidates Friday to set up interviews for next week. He hopes to

have a new AD in place as soon as possible after the interview process is complete. Meanwhile, Leopold’s predecessor Bruce Harbecke has stepped in to lend a hand. “Bruce has been a godsend,” Shelton said. “He said he will help us get things done to start the season. We have some in-house people interested [in the position] and other people who have experience. I’m excited about who we have. We’ll look to move quickly.” • Joe Stevenson is a senior sports writer for the Northwest Herald. He can be reached by email at joestevenson@shawmedia.com.

Gay tested positive at U.S. nationals The ASSOCIATED PRESS Sprinter Tyson Gay failed more than one drug test this year, recording one of his positives at the U.S. championships in June, where he won the 100 and 200 meters, The Associated Press learned on Friday. Earlier this month, Gay revealed he had tested positive in an out-of-competition test he took May 16. Three people familiar with the case told the AP that Gay

had multiple positives this year. One of those people said one positive came at nationals and the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency has notified him of that result. The people did not want their names used because the doping case against Gay is ongoing and the details have not been made public. Gay’s representatives did not immediately respond to attempts by the AP to reach them.

Zbilski is president of U.S. Kickboxing Org. • ZBILSKI Continued from page C1 “He means a lot to this school because he’s an example of what we can do,” Zbilski said. “We can take someone who has no prior experience, never hit a bag, never hit a mitt, and take him and train him, and put him into a professional boxing level.” But there are more than just Simon. Zbilski has his children, one of whom has won five national kickboxing championships as a teenager, the other an eighth-grader who’s already headed in that direction. There was Tommy “Little Dragon” Bach, the kid who dethroned a 64-3 Russian and was once an International Kickboxing Federation World Champion. There was Jerry Rhome, another IKF World Champion. There were also the hundreds of amateurs and professionals who were trained by Zbilski, the ones who made the Zbilski name and led to his coronation as the coach of various United States Kickboxing Organization teams and, this year, as the president of the organization. “The thing about our gym is not that I’ve just had one or two champions, it’s that I’ve had over 100 champions,” Zbilski said. “The system that we teach here is proven.” Before that all happened, there was just Zbilski and his brother Jim, shedding open envelopes every three weeks and phoning the best kickboxers they could find, ready for their next big fight.

RISE AND FALL Zbilski’s first kickboxing fight was when he attended Western Illinois University in the 1980s. It was the one that lit the fire. “I won that fight,” he said, “so it inspired me to continue to train in kickboxing.” As his knowledge of kickboxing grew, he trained and taught Jim, who was the better competitor. They grabbed about a dozen of Jim’s friends and called it a kickboxing team, one that drove across the county, chasing top competition in an unknown sport in a seemingly computerless world. Those were the first signs of Zbilski searching for better competition to challenge his team, and himself. In 1989, he gave life to Team Z’s, his first karate school, and it spawned a pair of other schools. Over the next decade, Zbilski coached more than a

Sky’s Delle Donne to sit out All-Star Game

hundred championship-winning kickboxers, which led to his role with the U.S. team. The way amateur kickboxing championships work is that anybody can show up to the national tournament and fight for their spot, something that’s stuck with Zbilski over the years. In 2004, he put together his schools and brought them all to Kiley Drive in Huntley, his new base. Then, he had about 450 students, but that was when the name was bigger, when the fights were grander. Today, he has about 200. Zbilski attributes the drop in numbers to the economy, and the drop in name to a shift in focus – the next challenge he has to conquer. “That’s been my problem in the last five years. I’ve tried to promote and put fights on TV,” he said. “I want to go back and rebuild our name and rebuild the competition team that we used to have.”

‘A GROWING PERIOD’ When Zbilski has a break from kickboxing, he goes to the gym anyway, to train. “The one enjoyable thing is that my work is something I enjoy doing,” he said. Continually training is also part of Zbilski’s definition of success, one that’s strictly derived from hard work. He knows that it’s requisite if America wants to become a somebody in the international kickboxing world, where right now it’s a nobody. Since he took over as president this year, Zbilski has pushed for greater sponsorship opportunities and open tryouts, which will begin his journey to accomplish his second goal: to “build the U.S. team so it can compete against teams against the world.” The biggest platform kickboxing could have is the Olympics, but the sport’s presence as one of 130 Olympic sports will be delayed until the 2020s – or even longer, if ever. In the upcoming months, the International Kickboxing Federation will put together a presentation that will seek to break the sport into the worldwide games. But what that will take is more hard work and openness, which Zbilski knows is doable. He has his short-term goals and long-term goals, both of which he knows won’t be fulfilled by waiting for economic recovery and a subsequent spike in support and participation in kickboxing. He knows he’ll have to do things the hard way, like he always has. “I think you have to create your own destiny,” he said.

Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville smiles Friday as he watches a video during a news conference in Chicago to announce his contract extension.

BLACKHAWKS

Quenneville earns contract extension 3-year deal keeps coach through 2016-17 By JAY COHEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Stan Bowman wanted to keep Joel Quenneville in Chicago, and the coach had no desire to leave. After two Stanley Cup titles in four seasons, this was a no-brainer. The Blackhawks announced a three-year contract extension for Quenneville on Friday, kicking off their sixth annual fan convention with a crowd-pleasing move. “There’s no one we’d want coaching this team more than Joel,” said Bowman, who was promoted to general manager about nine months after Quenneville was hired in 2008. “He’s done a fantastic job over the years. I think the record speaks for itself.” The 54-year-old Quenneville is 222-106 in five seasons in Chicago. He led the Hawks to the Stanley Cup in 2010, ending a 49-year drought, and then coached them to another title this year. With captain Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane and several other players standing off to the side, Quenneville said he was privileged to

coach the best group in the league. “I know we don’t get to see all the other teams, but as far as the character, the quality, the experience, the leadership, we have all the intangibles that can make a team successful,” he said. Quenneville’s deal was set to expire next year, but it now runs through the 2016-17 season. The announcement was no surprise, since Bowman had said since the end of the season that an extension was a priority and the coach talked all along about how much he enjoyed being part of the organization. It’s likely the last major offseason move for the Hawks, who return largely intact as they try to become the first team to win consecutive NHL titles since the Detroit Red Wings in 1997 and 1998. “It’s a great start to the weekend with the Hawks announcing the contract for Q,” Toews said. “It’s much deserved. I mean he’s done a lot of great things for his team since he’s been here in Chicago.” This is Quenneville’s third stop as a head coach in the

NHL. The former defenseman is 660-389-77 in 16 seasons with St. Louis, Colorado and the Hawks. He won the Jack Adams Award, which is given to the head coach who has contributed most to his team’s success, in 2000 with the Blues and was a nominee for the award again this year. Quenneville led the Hawks to an NHL-best 36-7-5 record this season. The Hawks earned at least one point in each of their first 24 games, setting an NHL record. He has recorded at least 40 wins in nine of his 10 full seasons as a coach. “I think he’s helped me in a lot of ways, especially defensively,” said Kane, who won the Conn Smythe Trophy this year for NHL playoff MVP. “That part of the game, and how to prepare yourself as a player and how to get yourself ready for certain games and be ready at all times.” Quenneville was drafted by the Toronto Maple Leafs in the second round of the 1978 draft and played 803 games in parts of 13 seasons in the NHL with the Colorado Rockies, New Jersey Devils and Hartford Whalers.

UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Elena Delle Donne will miss the WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday while recovering from a concussion. The No. 2 pick in the draft was injured in the Sky’s loss to Washington on Wednesday when she was going for a loose ball with a minute left in the third quarter. Delle Donne, who is averaging 18.2 points a game, is the first rookie to lead the All-Star voting and will be replaced on the Eastern Conference roster by Atlanta’s Erika de Souza. Top draft pick Brittney Griner also won’t play but will attend the league’s showcase game this weekend at Mohegan Sun Arena. Griner is still recovering from a sprained left knee and was replaced on the roster by veteran Tina Thompson on Thursday.

Klinsmann banned from Gold Cup soccer final CHICAGO – The U.S. soccer team will be missing a key figure for the Gold Cup final against Panama on Sunday at Soldier Field: their coach. Jurgen Klinsmann was suspended for one game Friday by CONCACAF’s disciplinary committee, the result of his ejection in the 87th minute of a 3-1 victory over Honduras in the semifinals Wednesday. Klinsmann was dismissed “for showing dissent towards the referee by throwing the ball in a violent manner,” the disciplinary committee found, and said FIFA rules require anyone ejected from a match to be suspended for the following game. The decision cannot be appealed. “I don’t think it changes too much,” U.S. captain DaMarcus Beasley said Friday. “It’s always good to have him on the bench, but he’ll give his wisdom before the game ... make sure we get off on the right foot. But it’s not going to be the same not seeing his face on the sideline, giving us instructions when we need it and being the enthusiastic person that he is on the bench. Especially, when we score or he needs to tell us something if we need to change something.” – Wire reports

NEW YORK – The stock market recovered from an early swoon and ended Friday pretty much where it started. The Dow Jones industrial average came back from a 150-point loss and ended up three points, just 0.02 percent, at 15,558. Expedia plunged 27 percent to $47.20 after the online travel agency reported that its profit fell by a third as costs increased. Starbucks rose 8 percent to $73.36 after beating Wall Street’s profit estimates.

Volunteers prepare hostas for Aug. 24 fundraiser at Rich’s Foxwillow Pines Nursery in Woodstock.

Hostas for Heifers Fundraiser at Rich’s Foxwillow Pines Nursery By CHRIS CASHMAN ccashman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Rich and Susan Eyre, owners of Rich’s Foxwillow Pines Nursery in Woodstock, are celebrating their 25th year in business by raising money for impoverished Bolivian communities. A hosta sale and arts and crafts fundraiser will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Aug. 24 at the nursery, 11618 McConnell Road. Proceeds will benefit Heifer International and Mano a Mano International Partners in Bolivia. “We’ve set a goal to build at least 100 clinics in Bolivia through Mano a Mano international,” Susan Eyre said. “We hope to raise $5,000 to $8,000 during the one-day event,” Susan said. “Last year we raised $23,000 for the year for Heifer International.” Heifer International provides livestock, trees, training, and other resources to help struggling families build sustainable futures. Rich Eyre worked with Heifer International in the Peace Corps 44 years ago in Bolivia. Rich and Susan have served on the Heifer International Foundation Board of Trustees. There will be an arts and crafts sale at the event on Aug. 24, but hostas are the stars of the show. Volunteers have been busy this summer gathering, dividing and preparing hostas for the sale. Susan calls them “Margaret Eyre’s volunteers,” referring to Rich Eyre’s 95-year-old mother who for years has helped organize hosta sales and fundraisers. “Volunteers to do the work, and keep the project going,” Susan said. Several hundred varieties of hostas will be available at the sale. Susan said longtime customers bring in hostas and other plants to donate for the sale. Tom Micheletti – former president of the American Hosta Society and Midwest Regional Hosta Society, and founder and first president of the Northern Illinois Hosta Society – will be available from 10 a.m. to noon during the event to identify hostas. “People bring bags of hosta leaves to identify,” said Susan, noting there are least 3,000 different varieties. She said Micheletti hybridized a new variety of hosta named the “Margaret Eyre,” in honor of her motherin-law.

Micheletti will do a short presentation about hostas in the landscape at 1 p.m. “The hosta is the most successful plant to grow in your garden,” Susan said. “If it’s getting too much sun, move it and next year it will do just fine.”

Susan noted that white flowering hostas attract deer. “Deer do chomp down on some of the hostas. Deer present certain challenges,” she said. Susan said in many ways, the hosta is the perfect plant. “You can dig up a hosta, put half of it in the ground. and sell or share the other half. It’s a renewable resource,” she said.

AbbVie 2Q earnings continue climb on Humira sales The Associated Press NORTH CHICAGO – AbbVie Inc. topped Wall Street expectations in its second full quarter as a standalone company due to higher sales of its best-selling drug Humira. In January, Abbott Laboratories completed the spinoff of AbbVie, which markets the company’s branded prescription drugs, including the blockbuster anti-inflammatory drug Humira. Second-quarter revenue rose

4.4 percent to $4.69 billion, driven mainly by Humira sales. Sales of the injectable medication increased 12.1 percent to $2.6 billion. Humira is prescribed to treat a number of inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and Crohn’s Disease. The company reported net income of $1.07 billion, or 66 cents per share, compared with $1.27 billion, or 80 cents per share, a year earlier. The decline is attributable in part to income tax expense of

$300 million, more than double from 2012. Excluding one-time charges the company would have earned $1.7 billion, or 82 cents per share. That topped the average estimate of Wall Street analysts, who predicted 79 cents per share on revenue of $4.53 billion, according to FactSet. Sales of the company’s cholesterol pills TriCor and Trilipex continued to fall due to the expirations of their patents. Combined sales of the drugs, which are designed to

raise “good” HDL cholesterol while reducing triglycerides and “bad” LDL cholesterol, fell 66 percent to $107 million. The company raised its full-year adjusted earnings guidance to between $3.07 and $3.13 per share, from $3.03 to $3.13 per share. Analysts polled by FactSet expect earnings of $3.12 per share. Company shares rose 55 cents to close at $44.79 in Friday trading. Shares are up 31 percent in the year to date.

Woodstock chamber debuts new website

Consumer sentiment reaches six-year high WASHINGTON – Americans are more confident about the economy than at any time since July 2007, a survey found, suggesting consumers will spend more and accelerate growth in the months ahead. The University of Michigan said Friday that its final reading of consumer sentiment in July was 85.1. That’s up one point from June but nearly 13 points higher than a year ago. Rising home prices and steady job gains are boosting household wealth and income. The proportion of Americans who expect their inflationadjusted incomes to rise in coming year is greater than at any time since late 2007, the survey found. And the percentage of Americans who say their home values have risen is also at a six-year high.

Toyota remains world’s top-selling automaker TOKYO – Toyota shrugged off China sales woes to stay the world’s top selling automaker for the first half of this year, outpacing U.S. rival General Motors Co., which boasted such bragging rights for seven decades until 2008. Toyota Motor Corp. sold 4.91 million cars and trucks around the world for the January-June period, down 1.2 percent from the previous year, according to numbers it released Friday. GM said earlier this month it sold 4.85 million vehicles worldwide in the six months, growing almost 4 percent as it gained U.S. sales faster than Toyota. For the second quarter alone, GM had a slight edge, outselling Toyota by about 10,000 vehicles. GM was the top-selling automaker for seven decades before losing that title to the Japanese automaker in 2008. GM retook the spot in 2011, when Toyota’s plants were slowed by an earthquake and tsunami in northeastern Japan that wiped out parts suppliers.

Chambers of commerce are essential to the economic growth of our communities – through making introductions, facilitating projects, maintaining data on the areas served and their economic climates, and keeping abreast of pending development projects. To that end, the Woodstock Chamber of Commerce and Industry is proud to introduce our newly redesigned website: www.woodstockilchamber.com. At the Woodstock chamber, we are proud to offer numerous All Member Meetings and All Member Mixers throughout the year. These provide a great opportunity for members to learn and network in a comfortable, business-friendly environment. However, in today’s society there are members and prospective members who simply can’t get to these events. That’s why a strong web presence is more important than ever. By visiting our website, members can quickly and easily find contact information for each and every member organization. This allows members to network on their own schedules, not just by attending chamber events. Not only is the chamber website a conduit to networking between

– anywhere with an Internet connection. If you are currently contemplating joining the Woodstock Chamber of Commerce & Industry, our website offers information to help you make that commitment. Detailed information includes our Mission Statement that drives the organization, benefits that come with chamber membership, a directory of the Board of Directors and chamber staff, and information on the various committees you can join. The Join the Chamber tab allows you to join online with payment conveniently accepted via PayPal. We live in the Internet age, and the Woodstock chamber is committed to remaining at the cutting edge of technology for the benefit of our members. Launched this month, the new chamber website is just one example of how the chamber embarks in an ongoing mission to best serve our members and the McHenry County community we represent. If you haven’t done so recently, I personally invite you to visit www. woodstockilchamber.com and see how we can best serve you and your business. We are dedicated to the greatness that is our membership.

CHAMBER NEWS Shari Gray members, it also serves as a forum for members to offer their services at special rates to other members. For example, Any Key Computing currently offers a 15 percent discount on services to other members of the Woodstock chamber. Carrigan Design offers members 10 percent off any web or marketing layout and design. The Calendar section on the site serves as an easy-to-use reference tool to businesses looking to be active in the community, including our annual State of the City Luncheon. Additionally, the Events area on the site has information on such annual traditions as the Annual Dinner, Miss Woodstock Scholarship Pageant, Pickle Palooza music festival, and Lighting of the Square. The Members News section provides up-to-date information about member businesses. Updated twice a week, the Member News section is ripe with valuable information that you are able to digest at your own pace from the office or from home

Apple’s share of smartphone market declines

The Associated Press

NEW YORK – T-Mobile said Friday that it is temporarily eliminating upfront payments on new phones, but it is increasing the prices for some models through higher monthly payments. Unlike rival carriers, T-Mobile charges the full retail price of phones, spread over two years, but reduces monthly service fees for voice, text and data. AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and others typically charge $200 or so up front for high-end phones and make up for the rest of the phone’s cost through higher service fees over the life of a two-year contract. Under a new payment plan introduced in March, T-Mobile charges a down payment for the phone and monthly installments until the device is paid off in two years. For instance, customers pay $146 up front for an iPhone 5 and $21 a month for two years for a total cost of $650. That’s about the same price Apple charges when someone buys the phone without a two-year contract for use at an-

Apple’s share of the global smartphone market fell during the second quarter to its lowest level in four years, according to data released Friday. Apple took 13.1 percent of the worldwide market, according to ABI Research, down from 16.6 percent a year ago. That’s the lowest level since the third quarter of 2009, two years after the launch of the first iPhone. Apple Inc., based in Cupertino, Calif., sold 31.2 million iPhones in the April-to-June period, up from 26 million in the same period a year ago, the report said. But the company’s sales growth isn’t keeping pace with the overall smartphone market, which grew 52 percent from last year. The No. 3 and No. 4 smartphone makers, LG Electronics of Korea and Lenovo Corp. of China, doubled their sales in the quarter, according to ABI research. Samsung, the world’s largest maker of smartphones, also saw a drop in market share.

AP file

T-Mobile CEO John Legere speaks during a July 10 news conference in New York. other carrier. In eliminating the down payment, starting Saturday, some phones will be cheaper. For instance, customers will be paying $600 overall for Samsung Electronics Co.’s Galaxy S4, compared with $630 currently. Apple’s iPhone 5 will be $2 cheaper, at $648 overall. But HTC Corp.’s One will cost $600, up $40. Other higher-priced devices include Sony Corp.’s Xperia Z and BlackBerry Ltd.’s Q10. T-Mobile said it was revising prices to reflect demand and other factors. “Every time we have a chance to change pricing, we always make ad-

justments,” said Mike Sievert, chief marketing officer at T-Mobile. “Some are going up. Some are going down. Each and every one is going to zero down.” The promotion follows the introduction of new upgrade plans at three of the four national wireless carriers. T-Mobile started the wave about two weeks ago with its $10-a-month Jump program. For that fee, you get insurance to cover loss and damage and the right to upgrade up to twice a year. You pay a new down payment for the new phone when you upgrade, but remaining installments on the old phone are waived.

C.J. Cherryh, a science iction and fantasy author who has an asteroid named after her, said, “Trade isn’t about goods. Trade is about information. Goods sit in the warehouse until information moves them.” For the last two weeks, we have been using the acronym “trade” to help ind the right plays. We track the tricks, read the lead, audition the auction, deduce the danger, and eye the entries. Here is one more example. How should South play in four spades after West guesses well to lead a fourth-highest club ive? When North raises three spades to four, he knows that there could be four top losers, but it might make or be a good sacriice against a making four-heart contract for East-West. This deal is East’s problem. He should realize that if the defenders are going to win four tricks, they will be either three clubs (West started with queen-fourth) and the heart ace, or two clubs (West started with ive clubs) and two hearts. So, East takes the irst trick with his club king and

cashes the club ace, noting that West plays the two, indicating that West started with ive clubs. Now East must shift to a low heart. If West has the king, cashing the ace irst works ine; but not here. The question is: Will South guess correctly? Finally, if West wins the third trick with the heart queen, how does he know to return a heart, not give East a club ruff? Because if East had begun with the ace-kingdoubleton of clubs, he would have won the irst trick with the ace, then cashed the king.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Some of the grateful recipients of your past favors will find a number of ways to repay you in the year ahead. They will go out of their way to help you achieve your social and material goals. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Substantial returns are in the offing from all the effort you’ve expended on something that has yet to yield fruit. That big payoff you’re looking for is just around the corner. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- One of your most valuable assets will be the ability to motivate others to get off their duffs. You will inspire people to get something done. Go ahead and lead, they’ll follow. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Your material aspects continue to look quite encouraging. Follow the same formula that you’ve been using and you should be able to get a profit through both direct and indirect action. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Although a friend of long standing might come to you for help, ironically, you could be the party who’ll derive the greatest benefits from it. Be open-handed in all that you do. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- To get others to be more effective, let them think your good ideas are theirs. By doing so, you’ll be the one who will end up with the greatest success. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Go out of your way to touch base with some old friends. Owing to something new that’s stirring, it’s to your advantage to maintain as many strong relationships as you can. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You’re still in a very fortunate cycle where benefits can be derived from handling tasks and assignments as effectively as possible. Do the best you can and focus, focus, focus. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- This is an excellent day to enter into serious negotiations, provided each party is as concerned about protecting the rights of others as they are their own privileges. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You have a natural ability to take something that’s old and transform it into something far more useful. You’ll get a chance to use this in both your work and social life today. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Something good is likely to happen that should strengthen the bonds between you and your special someone. It’ll be up to you to take full advantage of this excellent opportunity for growth. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You’re on a productive roll when it comes to wrapping up deals, but it’ll be up to you to take full advantage of favorable circumstances. Put your priorities in order and handle what’s most important first. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- If at all possible, do not delegate any important assignments to a subordinate. Even if it puts you under some pressure, you’re the one best equipped to handle the matter.
