Township foe sees hope in bill

Korean War vet gets final salute

Law outlines steps if unit of government is abolished

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com Supporters of reducing the state’s 7,000 units of government see a new law allowing DuPage County to ax some of theirs as a good step.

A longtime opponent of township government sees the same in a new law allowing Evanston Township voters to formally abolish it.

Wonder Lake barber Bob Anderson, who has fought for years to get townships abolished and spearheaded two referendums to that effect, said Gov. Pat Quinn’s signing of Senate Bill 1585 is a significant step. The bill spells out the steps to turn over services and property if the township is eliminated – that uncertainty, Anderson said, has Photos by Kyle Grillot – kgrillot@shawmedia.com

WASHINGTON – Short on support at home and allies abroad, President Barack Obama unexpectedly stepped back from a missile attack against Syria on Saturday and instead asked Congress to support a strike punishing Bashar Assad’s regime for the alleged use of chemical weapons.

With Navy ships on standby in the Mediterranean Sea ready to launch their cruise missiles, Obama said he had decided the United States should take military action

Congress to return from recess Sept. 9

More than 100 people came out to Windridge Memorial Park Cemetery in Cary Saturday to honor Mitchell’s brother, Cpl. Donald Victor MacLean, who was buried with full military honors for his sacrifice in the Korean War. After 63 years, Mitchell said it was comforting to have her twin brother back where he belongs.

“The closure is here now,” Mitchell said after the ceremony as she was surrounded by family. “He’s home.”

MacLean’s remains were identified this year after new technology made it possible to match him with the remains of one of about 800 unidentified servicemen

Northwest Herald Web Poll Question

Time to let this bird fly Only in McHenry County can a middle finger cause such a distraction in the middle of an important political campaign.

In 2002, it was a hefty tabby cat flipping the finger – er, paw – to voters in a mailer sent by Democrat Nancy Vazzano in her campaign for treasurer against incumbent Bill LeFew. In 2013, it’s McHenry County Undersheriff and sheriff’s candidate Andrew Zinke giving the bird – or not – to local blogger Cal Skinner.

Skinner claims Zinke gave him the middle finger at Crystal Lake’s Independence Day parade back in July, and posted a photo to support that claim on his blog.

Zinke, who is one of three announced candidates to replace Sheriff Keith Nygren after Nygren retires at the end of his current term, denies Skinner’s claim and says that whatever the photo depicts was inadvertent.

Zinke went so far as to explain his side of the story in an email to county officials. Problem was, Zinke used his Sheriff’s Office email address to send his message, and he did so while he was on duty. Both possibly violate ethics rules prohibiting campaigning with taxpayer resources.

Skinner filed a complaint with the county’s Ethics Commission, arguing that Zinke violated the county’s ethics ordinance.

Zinke filed a countercomplaint alleging that Skinner’s original complaint was frivolous.

It’s all made for some interesting headlines, but it’s done little to push the campaign for sheriff forward.

Zinke faces a challenge in the March Republican Party primary from retired police commander Bill Prim. The winner of the primary will face independent candidate Jim Harrison in November’s general election. There’s still plenty of time for other candidates to jump into

VIEWS Dan McCaleb the race.

A lot of time and energy have been spent on this middle-finger issue that would be better spent on the real issues in this campaign.

As Nygren’s handpicked successor, Zinke essentially is the establishment candidate. If voters think Nygren has done a good job and want to continue his policies and practices, Zinke may be their choice.

Prim has the support of State’s Attorney Louis Bianchi. He says the Sheriff’s Office is top heavy with administrators and is run like a private club, with insiders given preferential treatment.

Harrison also says there is a culture of political favoritism within the department and promises to bring political independence to it.

There is plenty to debate here without focusing on such petty stuff.

Middle finger or no middle finger, it’s time to let this bird fly away.

‘Dream’ ceremonies reveal political segregation

By JESSE WASHINGTON The Associated Press WASHINGTON – They came to honor Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream, a tapestry of humanity with all shades of skin and from all walks of life. Yet there was something missing from the Lincoln Memorial this week: Republicans.

Fifty years ago, Democrats and Republicans stood shoulder to shoulder, demanding equal rights for African-Americans. But during the past week of commemorations of this formative American moment, the two parties barely interacted, each organizing its own events and delivering its own interpretations of King’s dream.

Call it political segregation.

“No one even thought you should put a fig leaf over it,” said Mary Frances Berry, a University of Pennsylvania history professor and former chairwoman of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights.

“It’s so obvious that it’s partisan,” Berry said. “I’m not sure that’s good politics or the way to get anything done.”

How did this happen? And how will it affect the effort to solve America’s remaining

As the anniversary ceremonies unfolded, both sides said more unity is needed to fully realize King’s dream – yet they showed few signs of wavering from positions that have been forged from decades of political warfare.

And today’s challenges – disproportionately high black poverty, unemployment, and education gaps – are more slippery than those of 1963, when the simple cry for equal rights drew support from both parties.

Robert J. Brown, who worked with King in the civ-

il rights movement and then served as an aide to President Richard Nixon, said the 1963 March on Washington was “totally open. I was there in the middle of it. You had Democrats, Republicans, whites, blacks.”

Today, “nobody wants to compromise anymore. They feel like their way is the only way,” Brown says. “Well, I got news for you. In the history that thank God I have been somewhat a part of, that I came through, it was about compromise.”

The two biggest commemoration events were a march

8TODAY’S TALKER

The Northwest Herald invites you to voice your opinion. Log on to www.

NWHerald.com and vote on today’s poll question:

Would you take a Massive Open Online Course from McHenry County College?

Northwest Herald’s Editorial Board has been pushing the McHenry County Board to put a referendum on the ballot asking voters countywide whether they’d prefer to elect the County Board’s chairman at the ballot box.

Under the current system, voters elect County Board members by district, and then the elected County Board members choose their own chairman every two years. We’ve been strong proponents of voters being able to decide whether they’d prefer the status quo or whether they’d like to change the system.

So in an Aug. 22 “Our View” editorial, we congratulated the County Board for finally placing such a referendum on the March 2014 ballot. But our editorial went a step too far in saying that we’ve been longtime proponents of changing the system – having voters elect the board chairman at-large.

That’s not the case.

The Editorial Board, of which I’m a member, actually has not taken a position on the ballot question’s merits.

There are strong arguments for both changing and maintaining the current system, and in the months leading up to the March election, we’ll explore those.

As it does before each election, our Editorial Board likely will make a recommendation on this referendum. But I and other Editorial Board members need to carefully examine all sides of the issue before doing so.

Thanks to McHenry County Board member Michael Skala for bringing the editorial’s discrepancy to our attention.

last Saturday, and the ceremony Wednesday where President Barack Obama spoke from the same spot as King did precisely 50 years before.

Both were organized by a coalition of African-American advocacy groups closely tied to the Democratic Party, such as The Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change, which is run by King’s children; the NAACP; the National Urban League; and Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network.

The King Center invited both former President Bushes and all the Republican Congressional leaders to speak Wednesday. The elder Bush is too infirm to travel; his son declined due to a recent heart procedure but sent a statement of support.

Other invited Republicans also declined, citing prior engagements.

Congress was in recess last week; it held a bipartisan ceremony in July. On Monday, the Republican National Committee held a commemorative luncheon that focused on attracting more minority voters to the GOP. Representatives from the NAACP and Urban League attended, but no Democrats were featured as speakers.

Quinn: If lawmakers want paychecks, override veto

By SARA BURNETT The Associated Press

AP photo

The mezzanine level offices in the west wing of the Illinois State Capitol, seen here Aug. 21, were entered through doors below the mural. They have been eliminated as part of a two-year, $50 million renovation and restoration project.

State to unveil Capitol makeover DOUG FINKE The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Two years ago, plywood walls went up inside the Capitol sealing the west wing from the rest of the building while a massive renovation project was undertaken.

The walls are about to come down and when they do, people may not recognize the place.

Gone is the institutional beige paint scheme, replaced with stenciling and colors that were there when the building first opened.

Longtime fixtures like the first floor newsstand and the basement cafeteria are also gone, as is the mezzanine that once housed offices for news outlets that covered the Statehouse.

The maidens have returned, light fixtures originally designed for the building but deemed too risqué for 19th century Illinois sensibilities

and never installed.

The period flavor extends right down to the exit signs, specially designed for the project to convey a turn-ofthe-century feel as much as an electric exit sign can.

The work has come at a cost. The project price tag has grown to about $50 million from the $43.3 million when bids were awarded. The project includes not only historic restoration of the west wing, but replacement of the outdated heating, air-conditioning and ventilation system, and bringing the area up to modern life safety and disability access standards.

“This project is on budget,” said Capitol architect Richard Alsop. “We had money in the budget for contingencies, so we are still within our budget range.”

Money for the project is coming from bonds issued by the state to pay for public works projects. Alsop acknowledged the price tag

would have been lower had the work been limited to upgrading mechanical, electrical, plumbing and ventilation systems as well as required public safety and disability access improvements. More than half the cost was for “work we needed to do,” Alsop said.

However, he said it would have been a mistake to ignore historical renovations while the wing was undergoing the extensive repairs.

“If we’re not going to touch this wing for 50 to 75 years, let’s try to bring it back to what we call its period of significance, 1867-1908,” Alsop said. “It wasn’t all for life safety, but as long as we are going through that step and doing renovations that are going to last 100 years, you should really take advantage of it.

Having a building like this is a jewel, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with the state Capitol being a building that draws the public in.”

Judge Gerald Kinney ruled Friday that Joe Hosey, a reporter and editor with the AOL news website Patch, must turn over the information within 21 days and possibly testify about how he obtained leaked police reports.

Hosey used the reports to write several stories about the

January killings of 22-year-olds Terrance Rankins and Eric Glover, who police say were lured to a Joliet home and then robbed and strangled. Four people were indicted in the crime, which police have called “brutal” and “heinous” and said involved attempted dismemberment.

CHICAGO – Attorneys for Gov. Pat Quinn say a judge should toss out a lawsuit over his halting of lawmaker salaries because if legislators want their paychecks they can override his veto.

In a motion filed in Cook County Circuit Court on Friday, Quinn’s lawyers acknowledge such an override could be unpopular with Illinois voters. But they say as long as the option exists, the lawsuit filed by House Speaker Michael Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton seeking to restore legislators’ pay is premature.

“When a veto rankles the General Assembly, the usu-

al and constitutionally sanctioned response is to seek to override it,” the attorneys state. “They have declined to exercise that power.”

Quinn’s lawyers also argue he has the constitutional authority to veto money for lawmaker salaries.

The governor used his line-item veto in July to cut $13.8 million for legislators’ salaries from the state budget as a consequence of lawmakers not taking action to resolve Illinois’ nearly $100 billion pension crisis. Madigan and Cullerton – both Chicago Democrats, like Quinn – filed a lawsuit, saying the governor’s action was unconstitutional and violated the state’s separation of powers. They also asked a judge to order

paychecks to be issued.

Judge Neil Cohen has set a Sept. 18 court date to hear oral arguments on the case.

Meanwhile legislators – who make a base annual salary of $67,836, plus stipends for serving in leadership posts – are set to miss their second monthly paycheck.

Illinois’ five public-employee retirement funds have an unfunded liability of about $97 billion, due largely to lawmakers not making adequate payments to the funds. This year, that annual payment is about $6 billion – about onefifth of the state’s general fund budget. Quinn and other lawmakers say it would take much-needed money away from areas such as public safety and education.

“Why are Air Conditioners priced so differently?”

We receive numerous inquiries from people who want to know the cost of a certain size AC unit. Unfortunately, this is the worst way to shop for a new system. There are many reasons not to phone shop, but the following are some of the more common ones: • Prices of equipment vary based on the BTU capacity and the efficiency rating. Without doing a load calculation on the house, we don’t always know what size you may need. Efficiency is the biggest cost escalator for new units. It is possible to purchase a 2 ton 20 seer rated unit for a higher cost than a 13 seer 5 ton unit.

• A proper evaluation of the house and a thorough explanation of the benefits and features of the equipment usually takes about an hour. So obviously a quick phone quote doesn’t do justice for a customer’s long term investment.

• When making a major purchase for your home, it is in your best interest to get the most thorough information that you can. The only way to accomplish this is with an in-home consultation.

If you have any questions about a new AC unit or any other HVAC questions, please contact me via my email: adam@officialhvac.com or my cell: 815-404-4634.

State report recommends removal of Danville dams DANVILLE – A state report looking into safety and environmental concerns over two eastern Illinois dams recommends the structures be dismantled.

The mayor of the city of Danville, which owns the dams, has sought that outcome for about a decade, after the drowning of a woman whose canoe capsized in churning water at the base of one of the low-head dams on the Vermilion River.

The cost would be paid for by the state, but a final decision will be taken by the Danville City Council in mid-September.

New Bay Bridge to open decades after ’89 quake The ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN FRANCISCO – When traffic flows across a new stretch of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge for the first time, it will do so nearly a quarter-century after a deadly earthquake during the 1989 World Series collapsed two 50-foot sections of the old structure.

The 6.9-magnitude Loma Prieta quake hit just as millions tuned in to watch Game 3 of the “Bay Bridge World Series” between the Oakland Athletics and San Francisco Giants, killing 63 people and causing up to $10 billion in damage.

Twenty-seven-year-old Michael Zaky Bassaly of Downers Grove is charged with first-degree murder in the death of his mother, Yvonne Zaky Bassaly.

Assistant State’s Attorney Anne Therieau said Homeland Security was investigating Bassaly on suspicion of filing more than 100 fake asylum applications.

The new eastern part of the span should be ready to open as scheduled by 5 a.m. Tuesday after being closed for five days while crews put on the finishing touches, transportation officials said Saturday.

The years of past delays magnified public safety concerns over the need for a permanent solution as the original, seismically unsafe bridge, which opened during the administration of President Franklin Roosevelt, was patched up and continued operating.

The self-anchored suspension bridge with a looming, single white tower was designed to endure 150 years and withstand the strongest earthquake estimated by seismologists to occur at the site over a 1,500-year period.

Prison officer searching for escaped inmate beaten ROBINSON – A prison officer searching for a fugitive inmate in eastern Illinois was beaten by a man believed to be the prisoner who walked away from a work crew earlier in the day.

The Illinois Department of Corrections said the man surprised the officer, struck him from behind and fled. The officer was bruised. Corrections spokesman Tom Shaer said law enforcement personnel were continuing the search Saturday on foot, by air and with dogs.

In U.S., fears, ambivalence, anguish over Syria

By KEN THOMAS and THOMAS BEAUMONT The Associated Press DES MOINES, Iowa – The specter of U.S. military action against Syria and further intervention in the Muslim world is generating troubled and conflicting emotions throughout America.

People cite misgivings about their country’s role as “world policeman.” They express moral outrage at atrocities in a faraway nation, tempered by dismay about trying to decide who’s good and who’s bad in a sectarian slaughter. There’s a deep ambivalence about how to use American military power for good without committing the United States to another intractable war.

Those sentiments are reflected in a series of interviews conducted Friday by The Associated Press across the country and borne out in recent polling.

In town after town, Americans weary of war after a dozen years of it are expressing unease, concern, fear and often resignation.

Some adamantly oppose

Kate Altmaier, a 30-year-old financial services administrative assistant (left), discusses Syria with her supervisor Jennifer McConkey, 45, Friday after her recent trip to the Middle East. Anyone who thinks America’s proper response is easy or obvious is misguided, she said. any U.S. action against Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government, even though the Obama administration says he used chemical weapons to kill 1,429 people, including

more than 400 children.

Most are struggling to sort out conflicting hopes and anxieties. Painful lessons from Vietnam and Iraq color the conversations. Pride in Amer-

ica’s strength and morality often seem pitted against fears of arrogance that can lead to conflicts much easier to start than to finish.

“I think he has to do some-

thing,” Ralph Whitney of Groton, Conn., said of Obama, even if it means “stirring up a hornet’s nest.”

Opinion polls quantify the serious reservations.

An NBC News survey suggests that the Assad government’s alleged use of chemical weapons has not persuaded more people in the U.S. to support military intervention.

Half of those surveyed said the U.S. should not take military action, while 42 percent said the U.S. should.

Only 1 in 5 said military action is in the U.S. national interest.

The poll was conducted Wednesday and Thursday, before the administration’s release Friday of an unclassified intelligence assessment that cited “high confidence” that the Syrian government carried out the attack.

A Washington Post-ABC News poll from December showed 63 percent in favor of U.S. military involvement if the Syrian government used chemical weapons against its people.

The NBC poll found scant support for arming Syrian rebels. About one-fourth of

those questioned favor U.S. military action to help stop the killing of Syrian civilians, while just 6 percent prefer arming the rebels.

Americans with firsthand knowledge of Syrian refugees’ plight talked in Des Moines about their wariness of U.S. military intervention.

“The pain and the despair people have experienced, and the loss of life, it’s created a situation where people don’t even know who they are anymore,” Kate Altmaier, a 30-year-old administrative assistant, said in between sips of coffee outside a cafe.

Altmaier had just returned from the Mideast. In Lebanon, she saw the struggles of those refugees.

Anyone who thinks America’s proper response is easy or obvious, she said, is misguided.

“Fighting evil with more darkness,” said Altmaier, a self-described born-again Christian, is not the answer.

“If someone has a good answer, I’ll say they don’t understand it. Even people who know a lot about it and have spent so much time there, it’s a spider web.”

BIGGEST Labor Day Sale EVER!

AP file photo

Children hold a flag as it passes down Main Street during the annual Labor Day parade Oct. 9, 2011, in Newtown, Conn. Newtown’s parade has been a fixture since 4,000 spectators turned out for the first stepoff Sept. 3, 1962.

With parade, Newtown reflects ‘how we’re healing’

By CHRISTOPHER SULLIVAN The Associated Press NEWTOWN, Conn. – Ten thousand decisions go into creating a big, boisterous parade. No one knows that better than Robin Buchanan, who for years has juggled the lineup at the Labor Day parade that has jubilantly closed out every Newtown summer for more than five decades.

But never before had this happened: Calls and emails from regulars, folks who always marched, concerned about the most basic decision of all.

“Are you going to have a parade,” they asked her, “this year?”

This year.

Meaning: After the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School, after the eulogies for 20 first-graders and six educators, amid the drumbeat of news stories across the country and hushed conversations around town, all adding up – still – to incomprehension.

A parade, this year?

On an icy evening back in January, barely a month after the shootings, a small group met with sad hugs to confront that question.

It’s always been a daunting task for the Labor Day Parade Committee to map out the two-hour extravaganza – to arrange the vintage warplane flyovers or get the stagecoach that’s pulled by four matched horses or the ballfield-size American flag, or whatever, to make sure of security and to hash out ways to pay the bills.

But this time, the committee members – two of whom serve out of devotion even though they’re divorced from each other – sat hollow-eyed under the fluorescent lights of a bank conference room.

Outside, handmade memorials still fluttered on lampposts.

The funerals were still raw memories.

How could you focus on a parade? Who would be the grand marshal, a happy honor normally but surely a heavy burden this time around?

What would the theme be?

Could it be anything but a memorial? But if so, what kind of parade is that?

“How’s everybody doing?” someone asked. There were tears as they went around the table, answering. It’s a tight group, and this was the first time they’d been together since “the incident.”

Yet they knew that planning a parade is a long process. And they sensed that, somehow, this year it could be one piece of the enormous task facing the shattered town and many beyond it, of finding ways to move forward through grief. So they got going, staying on the mundane issues of assigning duties and making preliminary decisions.

“I think we’re all kind of nervous about how we proceed,” said Beth Caldwell, the head of the committee, a petite, hard-charging real estate agent by day. Through the months ahead, she would work to maintain a delicate balance – “respectful of what has happened and still offering an avenue of celebration.” Often she’d be the one, when discussions turned somber, who injected a laugh or a cold dose of let’s-keep-moving reality.

“We can say what we want to happen,” she said, assessing the job ahead, “but the parade kind of takes on a life of its own.”

Newtown’s parade has been a fixture since 4,000 spectators turned out for the first step-off on Sept. 3, 1962. It often falls on a glorious Indian summer day, but even in drizzle, people come out – to see their neighbors march, to catch the veterans’ color guard or the cartwheeling gymnastics team, or just to laugh at parade nonsense, like the grand marshal who once showed up in a gorilla suit and roller-skated the whole route.

Parade mornings start early. At first light, you see cars pulling to the curb all along Main Street, and folks unloading folding chairs and blankets that will line more than a mile of lawns. Having staked out front-row spots, they drive away for a quick breakfast.

buried in the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu.

He arrived Wednesday at O’Hare International Airport, and accompanied by the U.S. Army, Illinois Patriot Guard, Rolling Thunder Illinois, the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office, Illinois State Police and McHenry police, the hearse carrying his remains looped through McHenry.

Bill Cheatham, who took part in the 21-gun salute, was one of more than a dozen members from the Polish Legion of American Veterans, Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion who contributed to the ceremony.

Cheatham said it was an honor to be a part of the memorial and was hopeful other families of unidentified veterans could find the same solace.

“I’m very glad this fallen comrade was able to come home,” Cheatham said. “There are still so many unknown yet to be identified.”

Cindy Graff of Island Lake was among the unrelated attendees at the ceremony who came to pay their respects to MacLean. Graff said her father was a Korean War veteran and she wanted to see a full military honor burial in person.

“I think it’s a great way to remember those who we should never forget,” she said.

and that he believes that as commander in chief, he has “the authority to carry out this military action without specific congressional authorization.”

At the same time, he said, “I know that the country will be stronger if we take this course and our actions will be even more effective.” His remarks were televised live in the United States as well as on Syrian state television with translation.

Congress is scheduled to return from a summer vacation on Sept. 9, and in anticipation of the coming debate, Obama challenged lawmakers to consider “what message will we send if a dictator can gas hundreds of children to death in plain sight and pay no price.”

The president didn’t say so, but his strategy carries enormous risks to his and the nation’s credibility, which the administration has argued forcefully is on the line in Syria. Obama long ago said the use of chemical weapons was a “red line” that Assad would not be allowed to cross with impunity.

Nor would the White House say what options would still be open to the president if he fails to win the backing of the House and Senate for the military measures he has threatened.

Rikki Mitchell, the oldest son of Donna Mitchell, said the ceremony provided closure and a chance to reunite with family members who have heard plenty of stories of his uncle’s passion for the Army.

It was a fitting end to an extraordinary life, he said.

“I’ve heard about him since I was 5 years old,” he said.

“This is the last thing [Donna Mitchell] wanted to do before she was gone, and I think it was great we could all be here.”

Residents voted to abolish Evanston Township in a referendum last year • TOWNSHIPS Continued from page A1 scared off people who otherwise would support township abolition.

“For 20 years I’ve been trying to get rid of township government, and for 20 years I’ve been working every state legislator to work on something like this – a transition plan that would spell out exactly who takes over, and when and what happens if a township is taken over or eliminated,” Anderson said.

There are 1,433 towns h i p s s p r e a d Illinois Sen. out among 85 of Daniel Biss the state’s 102 D-Evanston counties. While township proponents call them the most responsive and direct link between government and the people, opponents call townships an unnecessary and wasteful throwback to the past, whose duties could be easily absorbed by county and municipal governments.

The bill, sponsored by state Sen. Daniel Biss, D-Evanston, clarified state law as to whether Evanston Township voters could dissolve the township on their own or whether all voters in Cook County – which has 30 townships – would have to weigh in.

Evanston Township residents in an advisory referendum last year voted in favor of abolishing it by more than a 2-to-1 margin, and Biss’ legislation allows them to put a binding referendum on the ballot. The township and the city of Evanston have identical boundaries – the city’s aldermen and mayor serve as the township board, but the township has an elected supervisor and assessor.

The original bill as proposed would have allowed voters in any township to force a referendum abolishing it upon submission of a petition with the signatures of at least 10 percent of the township’s registered voters. But Biss narrowed the language to pertain only to Evanston Township to get the needed votes to pass it.

Even that did not eliminate opposition from Township Officials of Illinois, which lobbied against the bill.

“While this bill only includes one township, Evanston Township, we must not

let this bill pass,” Executive Director Bryan Smith wrote in an April legislative alert.

Smith could not be reached for comment Friday.

While Article 7, Section 5 of the Illinois Constitution allows townships to be abolished either individually or countywide by popular vote, the only mechanism codified in state law provides for eliminating all townships within a county.

And the only way to do that is with a referendum to abolish the county board form of government and put power in the hands of three elected county commissioners. This is what Anderson’s first referendum in 1994 tried to do, but voters resoundingly rejected it by a 3-to-1 vote.

After the election, McHenry County’s representatives in the General Assembly successfully changed the law to make it harder for a county with a larger population such as McHenry County to approve such a referendum.

Anderson succeeded in getting a referendum on the ballot in 1998 to abolish McHenry Township, but that too was rejected by the township’s voters by a 3-to-1 vote.

“My critics continue to throw this in my face – why do you continue when everyone says we want to keep townships by a 3-to-1 vote? My answer is plain and clear – no one could make an intelligent choice at the time because there was no transition plan in case it passed,” Anderson said.

The 17 Illinois counties without townships are in the southern half of the state.

Twenty states from New England through the Midwest have townships. No states in the South or West have them.

The bill Quinn signed with regard to DuPage County allows its county board to vote to eliminate any local government entirely within its boundaries for which it appoints a majority of its trustees. Thirteen of the county’s 400 units of government are eligible for deletion, including one that exists solely to maintain 77 streetlights in a Naperville subdivision.

A state commission to explore how to pare the number of Illinois governments is expected to be released by the end of January. Illinois has far more governments than any other state – the first runner-up, Pennsylvania, has about 4,900.

Only this week, British Prime Minister David Cameron suffered a humiliating defeat when the House of Commons refused to support his call for military action against Syria.

Halfway around the world, Syrians awoke Saturday to state television broadcasts of tanks, planes and other weapons of war, and troops training, all to a soundtrack of martial music.

Assad’s governVladimir ment blames Putin rebels in the Russian Aug. 21 attack, president and has threatened retaliation if it is attacked.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying he was appealing to a Nobel Peace laureate rather than to a president, urged Obama to reconsider. A group that monitors casualties in the long Syrian civil war challenged the United States to substantiate its claim that 1,429 died in a chemical weapons attack, including more than 400 children.

By accident or design, the new timetable gives time for U.N. inspectors to receive lab results from the samples they took during four days in Damascus, and to compile a final report. After leaving Syria overnight, the inspection team arrived in Rotterdam a few hours before Obama spoke.

Egypt security forces arrest top Sinai militant The ASSOCIATED PRESS

AP photo

A man walks between tents installed by protesting teachers at the Zocalo plaza Friday in Mexico City.

Teachers’ protests that have snarled traffic, blocked government buildings and caused the cancellation of sports events in Mexico City have prompted President Enrique Pena Nieto to change the date of his state of the union address.

Mexico president’s can-do image tested The ASSOCIATED PRESS MEXICO CITY – President Enrique Pena Nieto came to power Dec. 1 with a swagger.

His Institutional Revolutionary Party, for all its faults, knew how to govern. He promised a new Mexico, an economic powerhouse far from its image as a violence-torn land overrun by drug traffickers. He passed radical reforms for education and telecommunications and proposed more for energy and taxes.

But nine months later, as Pena Nieto prepares to give his first state of the nation address on Monday, the new Mexico still looks a lot like the old one. Economic growth projections have been cut nearly in half. The streets are clogged with anti-reform protesters, who have blocked Congress and even forced the president to change the date and location of that state of

the nation speech.

Drug-related killings are down, his government says without releasing statistics.

But kidnapping and extortion, the crimes affecting average citizens that Pena Nieto promised to attack, are on the rise.

After 12 years out of office, the once-autocratic party known as the PRI is encountering a more complicated, democratic country than the one it ran for 71 years.

“They have to learn how to govern in a new context where there are a greater number of new voices from new spaces, and there is less control,” said Alberto Aziz Nassif, an analyst with the Center for Investigations in Social Anthropology.

With GDP growth projections dropping from 3.1 to 1.8 percent this year, and protesting teachers forcing legislators to shelve a key piece

of his education reform, Pena Nieto canceled a trip to Turkey to rescue the meat of the education reform in Congress.

“Let me tell you, in this effort we will not relent. We will not surrender. We are going firmly and with determination to make education reform happen,” he said at a presidential stop on Wednesday celebrating Senior Citizens Day. Pena Nieto worked during the campaign to convince voters that they were voting for a new PRI, devoid of the corruption and coercive tactics that got the party kicked out in 2000. He was elected in July 2012 as an alternative to six years of the Felipe Calderon administration, which was marked by a bloody and divisive attack on organized crime and a legislative agenda in many ways similar to Pena Nieto’s that fell victim to a divided Congress.

CAIRO – Egyptian security forces said they arrested Saturday a top wanted militant in the Sinai Peninsula, while authorities reported a failed attempt to disrupt traffic on the strategic Suez Canal but gave scant detail.

Canal authority chairman Mohab Mamish said a “terrorist element” had tried to disrupt navigation in the waterway by targeting a Panama-flagged ship. In comments carried by official news agency MENA, he said the attempt was “completely unsuccessful” and the container carrier unharmed. He did not say how the ship was targeted.

Authorities have taken extra security measures to safe-

guard the waterway as lawlessness and violence gripped Sinai, where militants and smugglers rove relatively freely and target security forces and posts.

Mamish said military troops dealt “firmly” with the situation, and that navigation was largely uninterrupted.

Earlier Saturday, residents of Port Said, a city that lies along the waterway, said they heard a loud bang. It was not immediately possible to reach witnesses later Saturday.

Egyptian authorities have heightened their security arrangements in recent weeks, following the military coup that ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi on July 3.

They accuse opponents of

the coup of trying to destabilize the country, and have waged a security crackdown against members of the Muslim Brotherhood, from which Morsi hails, and other allies, arresting hundreds.

Pro-military media and state TV have frequently described the crackdown on Morsi supporters as a “fight against terrorism.”

Morsi supporters have held near-daily protests since the coup but deny they are violent. After a bloody dispersal of their major sit-ins earlier this month, however, some retaliated by attacking police stations, government buildings and churches.

In Sinai, violence has only worsened since Morsi’s overthrow.

Recovery remains slow This Labor Day finds at least some of the American workforce wanting more. It’s not hard to understand why.

Take the recent example of fast-food workers, who protested in Chicago and around the country Thursday. They took to the streets to protest their low wages and demand they receive pay to support a family of three.

Such a protest by fast-food workers would have been dismissed out of hand 10 years ago.

“Flipping burgers” long has been considered the domain of teens and others looking to supplement their income.

People are marching in 2013 because those fast-food jobs are the best many can find in a labor market where 11.5 million workers are unemployed and another 8.2 million work part time but want to work full time.

These workers are depending on these jobs for their livelihood.

The national unemployment rate – not counting people who have given up looking for work – was at 7.4 percent in July. In Illinois, the rate was 9.2 percent.

Wage growth has been stagnant or fallen since the Great Recession; in sectors such as restaurants and manufacturing, wages have fallen. Young adults are living with their parents longer because they cannot find jobs with adequate wages to pay student loan debt and monthly rent.

Meanwhile, corporate profits are growing.

As a share of the overall economy, they hit their highest level since World War II in 2012, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce.

Wages paid to workers were smallest share of Gross Domestic Product since the 1950s.

Yet employers have been reluctant to grow their payrolls because of uncertainty about the future – not the least of which includes the effect the federal Affordable Care Act will have on businesses around the country. The U.S. has the highest corporate tax rate of any industrialized nation, and its tax code encourages international companies to keep profits overseas.

It is generally agreed that the code – written in 1986 – needs an overhaul, but Congress and President Barack Obama don’t see eye-to-eye on what should be done.

It is tempting to create a management vs. labor narrative for today’s economy, but it’s not accurate. Corporate profits benefit more of us than they did in the economy of 100 years ago.

More than 73 million Americans are active participants in 401(k) retirement plans, which means they do benefit when corporate profits lead to gains in the stock market.

Likewise, consumer spending drives America’s economy, and when consumers don’t see increases in their spending power, it is harder for the economy – and businesses – to grow.

Employers who keep operations and jobs in America, and hire Americans to fill those jobs, should be given preferential tax treatment.

Workers who pursue training in additional skills should be encouraged to do so in every way possible. And the federal government should cut spending and reduce taxes.

We need to work together if our economy – and our country – is to continue its recovery from what was a devastating recession.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Suburban heroes To the Editor: I truly could not believe what I read in Douglas Knight’s letter to the editor Aug. 22. I understand the intensity of the debate that is going on about public pensions.

But for Mr. Knight to take his position on the debate a step further though by saying, “In truth, being a firefighter in the suburbs is a cushy job,” is downright offensive.

Last year, I witnessed, right in front of me, a firefighter go through the air about 12 feet. This was the result of him getting on a scene of an emergency quickly and then experiencing an explosion. In 1999, my cousin, Wayne, died heroically in a fire as he served for the Northbrook Fire Department. It was true heroism. Two suburban firefighters ... period.

Mr. Knight, please be careful when you choose your words about those who are willing to serve us and protect us. They deserve that.

Missed it To the Editor: Every time that there is anything

that happens negative in Harvard, it makes front page news. Anything that is for the good, you’re never there.

There was a fundraiser for Andi Swenson at the Cash Savers parking lot Aug. 24. There were between 400 and 500 people just for the 5K run/walk. And from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., there was food, games, silent auctions and a community that came together once again for the good of one of our own. Dozens of people volunteered their time, donated money, donated auction items, cooked and served food.

What a great day we had.

I’m very proud to call Harvard home. Too bad you missed it.

Public services To the Editor: In order to continue tax breaks for the wealthy as done for the past 12 years, public services or policies such as Medicare, Social Security, public schools, postal services and immigration reform should not be reduced, ended, privatized or opposed, which, however, Congress does.

Price Index formula for U.S. cost of living adjustments is a benefit cut that would mean lower COLAs for current and future retirees with significant benefit losses. Higher Medicare premiums shifts costs to employers/seniors and can mean more costly hospitalization.

Social Security is not in crisis.

It had a $70 billion surplus until President George W. Bush. It would be more if the payroll cap became $113,000, not $70,000 only.

Immigration reform giving citizenship to those working with substandard wages, which lowers the wages of all other workers, would not cause a hardship on Social Security as these 3 million new citizens would not get Social Security until much later. They then could then get livable wages

and increase income taxes paid.

Conservatives would end the public school system. The “No Child Left Behind” demanded more testing, thus rote learning, despite creative thinking being needed.

Less teachers, less courses ensured. Vouchers to private and religious schools take our taxpayer funding.

Requiring post office pensions to be funded 75 years ahead of time, unlike anywhere else, doesn’t make sense.

Meanwhile, funding for unnecessary domestic surveillance drones continues.

Enact taxes on the wealthy. Keep public services like transportation, favor immigrant citizenship.

Should U.S. jump into the snake pit again? Of course not “Oh, when will they ever learn?

Oh, when will they ever learn?”

– Peter, Paul and Mary By the time you read this, U.S. missiles and bombs may be falling on Syria. Why? Syria hasn’t attacked us. It does not pose a security threat to the U.S. These were arguments made against the Bush administration’s intervention in Iraq by some who now urge us to make war on Syria.

Secretary of State John Kerry, who as a senator was for the funding of U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, before he was against it, says the U.S. is certain that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has used chemical weapons on his own people, thus crossing a “red line” established by President Barack Obama. Never mind there were

similar reports in June that alAssad had used chemical weapons.

This time it means war! Weren’t we told of the “certainty” that Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons?

Have we learned nothing? The future of Iraq is in doubt after a huge American investment of lives and money. Ditto Afghanistan.

After U.S. help in toppling Moammar Gadhafi, Libya is anything but stable. Egypt is in turmoil after the Obama administration backed its Muslim Brotherhood-controlled government, whose leader and elected president, Mohamed Morsi, has been ousted by the military.

What makes anyone think bombing Damascus is going to bring positive change?

Obama has not asked Congress for permission to attack Syria, as President George W. Bush did

Views Cal Thomas before attacking Iraq. He hasn’t gone to the feckless United Nations, because Russia and China have announced they will veto any resolution authorizing military force. The president doesn’t appear to have established anything like a “coalition of the willing,” as Bush did with Iraq. Britain is with us, as usual, and France has pledged support, but what about the Arab World? The Saudis may be quietly helping, but that appears to be about it.

What’s the endgame? If by some miracle al-Assad and his leadership are hit by a missile, how do we prevent al-Qaida, present in Syria,

from seizing power? There is a secular faction in Syria, but given the strength of Islamic fundamentalism throughout the region, it is doubtful they will play a role.

Misjudging the Middle East has been a bipartisan experience.

Hillary Clinton displayed a shocking lack of judgment when she said on CBS’s “Face the Nation” two years ago: “Many of the members of Congress of both parties who have gone to Syria in recent months have said they believe [al-Assad’s] a reformer,” meaning I suppose he might be better than his father, who killed an estimated 25,000 of his fellow countrymen when his power was challenged. Two days later, Clinton attempted to walk back her comment, saying she was not speaking for herself or the Obama administration.

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

“The beautiful crayon box of colors the trees display. ”

If the only reason for U.S. intervention in Syria is humanitarian, where is the constitutional justification for that? There are many other inhumanities throughout the world.

Congo is one. As Jeffrey Gettleman noted last December in The New York Times: “Congo has become a never-ending nightmare, one of the bloodiest conflicts since World War II, with more than 5 million dead.”

We’re not intervening there.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll has found that just 9 percent of American respondents favor U.S. military intervention in Syria.

Iran has threatened to strike Israel if the U.S. attacks Syria. There is grave danger, including possible terrorism, if we attack Syria. When will we ever learn?

ComEd project raises ire Huntley residents frustrated by 80-foot-tall tower near their property line

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Two neighbors in Huntley have continued the fight against a controversial ComEd project, and they say the utility company’s unwillingness to compromise is forcing them out of their Wing Pointe subdivision along Kreutzer Road.

Leslie Reining and Harris Khan, who live next door to each other on the eastern cul-de-sac of Great Plaines Drive, had their backyard view of Kreutzer Road dramatically

altered this summer with an 80-foottall electrical tower that soon will carry a 138,000-volt power line.

ComEd in May installed the tower nearly 25 feet away from Khan’s backyard as part of an area electrical upgrade called the Northwest Reliability Project that Huntley officials and other affected homeowners have previously resisted.

The tower stands 75 feet away from Khan’s back door, and the close proximity sent the two neighbors into action. They met personally this summer with two ComEd officials, whom

the neighbors said were not receptive to their concerns that the tower puts their health and safety at risk and diminishes their home values.

“They don’t value our emotions.

They don’t care about any of us,”

Khan said. “Just the thought of that is so infuriating. They are not willing to work with us.”

After ComEd installed the tower, Reining put a for-sale sign on her front lawn. She said she would take her house off the market if ComEd moved the tower.

She is concerned that her two infant children could have their health adversely affected if they are exposed to increased waves of electricity from the tower.

Families enjoy annual Lake in the Hills weekend event

By LINDSAY WEBER editorial@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – “Are you serious?” said a young boy, eyes to the sky staring at the spinning and flipping monstrosity that is The Zipper.

A line of youngsters stood behind him Saturday afternoon at Lake in the Hills’ Summer Sunset Festival

in anticipation of the wild ride that awaited them; shouts and shrieks of excitement floating down from its enclosed cages.

After the Friday evening rain put a damper on the festival’s first wine tasting event, Saturday afternoon’s warm weather brought life to the festival grounds, kicking off the morning with a parade.

Tatum Miller, 8, munched on a grape sno-cone after the parade and said she planned to have an afternoon full of carnival rides.

Tatum’s mother, Kim, said this is a yearly event for her and her family. The Huntley resident said they always come for the parade and stay for the festival.

“There are a lot of fun activities

here for the kids,” said Miller. “School just started and this is fun way to finish out our summer, see some friends, eat some food and have fun.”

Saturday afternoon’s agenda included an arts and crafts show, a horseshoes tournament and Melon Propellin’ competition.

Monday shelter Guida’s friends bring MMA to Woodstock for PADS sought Boy with bilateral Take the next step

Organization has 1 month to find new place

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com CARY – On Monday nights last winter, the PADS shelter at Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Cary averaged about 50 people and topped out for the season at 70.

Unfortunately, the rooms the church uses to provide shelter to the homeless only shelter 30 to 40 people safely, per the fire code.

So PADS organizers are looking for another site that could hold about 50 people to host men Monday nights. Sts. Peter and Paul plans to host women and children.

PADS has about a month to find a location, but there are no leads yet.

Want to help?

People who may be able to donate space for a PADS site Mondays should call Meghan Powell-Filler, the PADS and HUD coordinator for the Pioneer Center for Human Services, at 815-759-7288.

The shelter season runs from Oct. 1 through April 30.

Church volunteers who run the site plan to feed people and take in as many as are legally allowed, said Meghan Powell-Filler, the PADS and HUD coordinator for the Pioneer Center for Human Services.

“We’re trying to think of alternative ideas,” Powell-Filler said.

Powell-Filler said none of the other churches that host PADS sites have communicated space-constraint concerns.

Sts. Peter and Paul has been a PADS site since the late-1980s.

O’Sullivan and Felperin saw Nathan Ruffino, who has bilateral hearing loss that forces him to wear a hearing aid, as a perfect fit. They found that Ruffino was one of the nicest kids they’d ever met, but they felt he lacked confidence – a trait O’Sullivan says comes hand-in-hand with MMA. “It does multiple things that other sports cannot do – build confidence, teach discipline, provide structure, teaches honor and respect,” he said.

“We’re trying to shed the idea that MMA is this barbaric, violent sport for Neanderthals.”

sshinneman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Mary Ruffino remembers her son champing at the bit to get back into mixed martial arts.

Ruffino, the cousin of professional fighter Clay Guida, had enrolled her son Nathan, 8, into kickboxing a couple of years ago, but the expensive nature of the sport and a long drive to classes had made Nathan Ruffino it tough for the single mother to keep him enrolled.

But when Ruffino’s parents flew in for one of Guida’s fights in New Jersey, they met Adam O’Sullivan and Josh Felperin, a couple of Johnsburg natives who grew up with the local

Local martial arts studio on UFC TV show • MMA Continued from page B1 The organization now grants the Ruffinos the money Nathan Ruffino needs for equipment and classes, and it hasn’t taken Nathan long to latch on.

The third-grader is a green belt going on blue belt, and he doesn’t plan to stop anytime soon.

“I want to go for black belt,” he said.

For its part, The Next Contender plans to do everything it can to help Ruffino reach that goal.

O’Sullivan and Felperin set out a couple of years ago to find a way to give back to the community, and they figured their connections with-

in UFC might offer the best avenue for doing so.

The organization sponsors all the MMA-related expenses for children ages 5 to 17 that the board approves.

And their efforts are starting to raise eyebrows.

A couple of weeks ago, a TV crew was at Young Masters Martial Arts Studio in Woodstock filming Ruffino for an upcoming segment on “UFC Ultimate Insider,” a program on the new Fox Sports 1. The episode will run sometime in September.

“It’s been tremendous,” O’Sullivan said. “This ‘UFC Ultimate Insider’ show, that’s been a long time coming. We started talking to them back in October. They reached out to Clay.”

On top of the exposure

O’Sullivan’s organization is getting, the show has Nathan Ruffino bouncing off the walls in excitement.

His mom said he wrote her a letter soon after he got the news.

“Thank you very much, Mom, for letting me be on TV,” it said. “I can’t wait.”

The Next Contender program already has paid dividends in other areas, Mary Ruffino said.

The confidence boost O’Sullivan promised has been evident, and Nathan – whose condition might someday cause him to go deaf – has been starting to think of others before himself.

The other day at the doctor’s office with his grandparents and 5-year-old brother, Nicholas, Nathan held a

door for an elderly couple who were struggling to get it open. A couple of minutes later, he was helping an older man into a wheelchair.

One of the men came over and told Ruffino’s grandparents that his mom must be doing something right – a message Mary Ruffino reveled in when she heard it later.

“I’m doing the best I can being a single mom,” she said.

Those stories aren’t necessarily what keeps O’Sullivan chugging along with The Next Contender, but they do serve as a bit of validation.

“It’s just the right thing to do,” he said. “It makes me feel great when I get an email from Mary, or any of the kids’ parents.”

Site coordinator says year-round shelter needed • PADS Continued from page B1 “We’re not going to abandon the homeless,” site coordinator Rich Ring said.

Ring did add it hasn’t been discussed whether the church would turn people away.

Ring said some of the areas of the church, such as the sanctuary, aren’t secure enough for housing homeless or have furniture that can’t be moved.

The only secure area in the church is the basement.

The number of peo-

“We went through [and] calculated the capacity of each room. We discovered some of those spaces were not being used, and as a result, they were overcrowded.”

Lt. Andy Veath Cary Fire Protection District ple who need shelter also might increase, and there is a need for a year-round shelter, Ring added.

“The way the economy is going, I wouldn’t be surprised if the number goes up,” Ring said.

In the past, Ring said,

CRYSTAL LAKE: CENTEGRA HEALTH SYSTEM

• “Childhood Eating Hassles:

Tips to Help Your Kids Grow Up Healthy” will be from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday in the community room at Northern Illinois Special Recreation Association, 285 Memorial Drive, Crystal Lake.

• “Cancer Awareness: Knowing Your Risk” will be from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Sept. 19 at Centegra Health Bridge Fitness Center-Crystal Lake, 200 Congress Parkway.

PADS volunteers were looking for another location, but it wasn’t until the “11th hour” when another church stepped up.

Lt. Andy Veath of the Cary Fire Protection District said the fire district c a m e i n a n d h e l p e d d e-

termine the church could boost its capacity by housing people in rooms that were not being used for the shelter.

“We went through [and] calculated the capacity of each room,” Veath said.

“We discovered some of those spaces were not being used, and as a result, they were overcrowded.”

However, if the church decides not to expand the rooms they open up to homeless people, “that’s entirely their decision,” Veath said. “All we could do is give recommendations. It’s a difficult situation.”

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com • HAPPY LABOR DAY – The Illinois Department of Transportation stopped all nonemergency road work and eliminated most lane closures through the holiday weekend.

Notice that I said “most.”

Route 31 at Route 176 still will be down to one lane in each direction. Route 31 also will be down to one lane because of the ongoing Algonquin Western Bypass project.

Route 62 will be down to one lane through the weekend from Route 31 to Meyer Drive.

• WESTERN BYPASS: Watch for workers and delays as workers continue a $33 million project to build a 2-mile, four-lane highway west of downtown Algonquin to relieve congestion on Route 31.

Algonquin Road between Main Street and Meyer Drive will be down to one lane through this fall. Watch for lane closures on Route 31/ Main Street. South Main Street has one lane closed between Edgewood and Huntington drives, and North Main Street has one lane closed between Cary-Algonquin Road and Linden Avenue.

Huntington Drive will remain closed between Circle Drive and South Main Street through summer 2014. A detour to Edgewood Drive is posted.

• ROUTES 31 AND 176: Watch for delays as workers continue a $10.18 million improvement of the five-point intersection.

• JOHNSBURG ROAD: Only westbound traffic is allowed to travel along the road from Chapel Hill Road to Cherokee Drive. Eastbound traffic is being rerouted through a Route 31, Route 120, Chapel Hill Road detour.

Curb and gutter installation in the downtown area and along Spring Grove Road has been rescheduled to start Tuesday. That work was postponed because of last week’s high temperatures.

• ROUTE 22: Repaving work has begun on Route 22 from Route 14 to Route 12. Expect delays, especially because Route 22 is a designated alternate route for the closed Miller Road. Work is expected to be finished in October.

Also watch out for emergency vehicles, given that Route 22 is the main access

to Advocate Good Shepherd.

Road workers will be giving priority to those vehicles.

• ROUTE 14: We’ve been hearing the backup on eastbound Route 14 as workers renovate the Fox River Grove Metra station has gotten really bad, so plan extra travel time.

• INTERSTATE 90 AND ROUTE 47: Be prepared for delays along Route 47 as work continues to create a full interchange. The completion date for the $69 million project is set for late fall.

• CHARLES MILLER ROAD: Work is ongoing to create another two-lane span over the Fox River and widen Miller Road to four lanes with dedicated turn lanes from Route 31 to River Road.

The first phase, which consists primarily of building the new span and improving the intersection of Miller and River roads, will cost about $12 million and is anticipated to be finished by the end of October, weather permitting.

• ROUTE 120: Expect delays because of a $2.2 million resurfacing project between Route 14 and Charles Road through Woodstock.

• CRYSTAL LAKE ROAD: Work is ongoing on a $1.28 million project to resurface and improve traffic signals on Crystal Lake Road in McHenry, from Bull Valley Road to Route 120.

• LAWRENCE ROAD BRIDGE: Lawrence Road is down to one lane with a temporary traffic signal as workers replace the bridge over Piscasaw Creek. Weidner Road is closed at its intersection with Lawrence Road. The project is scheduled to be finished at the end of October.

• HILL ROAD BRIDGE: Hill Road southeast of Richmond remains closed while workers replace a bridge over the north branch of Nippersink Creek. Work is expected to be finished in September.

Power line should be activated in late September • PROJECT Continued from page B1 Fearing the consequences of living near a power line, the two neighbors, who have lived in Wing Pointe for 12 years, want ComEd to relocate the tower directly across from them on the south end of Kreutzer Road, which contains undeveloped farmland.

“It’s unnecessary to have this tower so close to a home,” Reining said. “There is no compassion.”

The Northwest Reliability Project began in 1994 and is meant to provide more electricity to the growing area of southern McHenry and northern Kane counties. The final, $60 million phase involved connecting a 138,000-volt line along 12 miles of Kreutzer Road.

Numerous project delays and problems with acquiring the necessary property to build the final route are just a few reasons why ComEd can’t move the tower away from Khan’s backyard, spokeswoman Liz Keating said.

The route also won approval from the Illinois Commerce Commission, solidifying the project’s course, she said. The power line along Kreutzer Road should be activated by late September.

“In the larger context of all the work that had been done and the fact that the project is important to increasing capacity and that we were already behind schedule, the ultimate goal was to get the project done and the lines activated,” Keating said.

Scientific evidence also is inconclusive on whether the tower that stands feet away from Khan’s backyard would harm neighbors’ health, she said.

High-voltage towers emit invisible waves of electricity that rapidly reduce in strength the farther a person moves away from it. Generally, a person 300 feet away

from a line would be no more exposed than the average person encounters each day, according to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.

A person is exposed to three times the average at 50 feet, depending on the strength of the line, the institute has found.

The institute was one of the first to comprehensively detail decades of studies that looked at the possible health hazards of electromagnetic fields.

Scientific studies have shown weak or nonexistent associations between heightened exposure and cancers in both children and adults. The clearest evidence suggests a weak association with child leukemia, according to the institute.

Reining and Khan’s concerns are a part of a long list of complaints about the route that began in 2007. Huntley officials spent nearly $250,000 to fight the route and suggested an alternative path before the ICC ruled against them in 2008.

Village Manager Dave Johnson has since talked with Reining and Khan about their concerns, but he said the village’s hands are tied.

“It would have been the more neighborly thing to assess the impact of that future tower to the residents in Wing Pointe,” Johnson said.

“If we had a choice, that pole wouldn’t be where it is. We have no authority in where those poles are located. We have spent years fighting that route for that reason.”

HUNTLEY 23, BARTLETT 12

Red Raiders tested, pull away late

jarnold@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – At some point, Marcus Wright kept telling himself, his Huntley teammates on offense would find a way to finish what they started.

But until that happened, the senior defensive lineman understood, the mission couldn’t change.

Hit hard. Hit harder. Keep the hits coming.

“That’s all we wanted to do,” Wright said. “To hit really hard.”

And when Huntley’s hard-nosed defense

kept pounding and kept the Red Raiders in their season opener Saturday, Mitch Kawell made sure the effort paid off. Kawell scored a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns 4½ minutes apart, guiding Huntley to a 23-12 nonconference win over Bartlett.

The late burst of point production came

after Huntley’s offense moved the ball all day – sometimes with ease. But time after time after driving deep into Bartlett territory, the Red Raiders (1-0) found ways to shoot themselves in the foot, keeping them taking command until Kawell’s 20-yard run with 2:18 remaining.

Kawell and backfield mate Jake Scalise combined to power a Huntley ground attack that produced 248 yards. Despite the effectiveness the Red Raiders showed, penalties – including a false start with Huntley on the Bartlett 1-yard line and a holding call on

MARIAN CENTRAL 28, CRYSTAL LAKE SOUTH 2

OFF AND RUNNING Hurricanes easily handle Gators again

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Playing quarterback in Marian Central’s passfriendly offense has become one of the area’s most glamorous positions.

The last three Hurricanes’ quarterbacks – Jon Budmayr, Ben Krol and Chris Streveler – all went on to play at NCAA Division I schools.

Baby-faced junior Billy Bahl made his debut as Marian quarterback Saturday and earned mostly rave reviews.

Bahl threw a pair of touchdown passes to wide receiver Brett Olson as the Hurricanes, ranked No. 6 in The Associated Press Class 5A poll, defeated Crystal Lake South, 28-2, in their season opener at Ken Bruhn Field.

“We threw the ball pretty well and got some long ones. [Bahl] played very well, ” Hurricanes coach Ed Brucker said, grinning. “I told you … he threw the ball well this summer.”

Bahl was 12 for 23 for 226 yards and was intercepted twice. Running back Ephraim Lee was instrumental in the first scoring drive with four carries for 51 yards. Bahl hit Olson for touchdowns of 43 and 59 yards, while the defense was pitching a virtual shutout.

The Gators were shut out by Marian in last year’s opener, and their only points Saturday came on a safety after a snap sailed over Bahl’s head into the end zone.

WHEATON NORTH 42, CARY-GROVE 18

Wheaton N., QB Thorson too much for Trojans

By TOM MUSICK tmusick@shawmedia.com

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

Cary-Grove’s Larkin Hanselmann drags Wheaton North’s Ben Moore for a first down in the third quarter Saturday in Wheaton.

WHEATON – Cary-Grove knew its opening game against Wheaton North would be tough.

On Saturday, the Trojans found out just how tough.

Northwestern-bound quarterback Clayton Thorson of Wheaton North passed for five touchdowns, and the Falcons’ defense punched in another touchdown with a fumble recovery to beat C-G, 42-18, at Rexilius Field. The Trojans (0-1) scored first before allowing 28 straight points in the second quarter against Wheaton North (1-0), which capitalized on four C-G turnovers Saturday.

C-G coach Brad Seaburg said illtimed mistakes cost his team, which

finished as Class 6A state runner-up last year but graduated 17 starters.

“For much of the game, I felt we played pretty well,” Seaburg said.

“We gave up big plays, we turned the ball over at key times, and we didn’t take advantage of opportunities we had.

“There were individual plays and individual breakdowns that happened that we need to get better at, but we’re certainly not discouraged. We know we’ve got to play more consistent and better.”

On offense, Trojans quarterback Jason Gregoire provided a bright spot with three touchdown runs, including a 26-yard score on a keeper down the right sideline on the game’s opening drive.

VIEWS Rick Morrissey

Huskies won’t quit, stun Iowa IOWA CITY – Northern Illinois’ slogan for 2013 is “Finish the Fight,’’ but who was kidding whom Saturday?

The Huskies were finished. They were done, overcooked, in danger of being burnt to a crisp.

They trailed Iowa by seven with 6:42 left, and although that might sound like a perfectly reasonable deficit for a team to overcome, the truth was that NIU’s offense had moved like oil sludge in the second half. There was no indication the final minutes would be any different. There might have been determination (fight), but there certainly wasn’t a passing attack (flight).

The Huskies pulled off a fake punt in the second half, gimmicking things up in the hopes of sparking the offense, but there was no fire in sight. Not even the motivation of last season’s bitter opening loss to the Hawkeyes seemed to spur them on.

And then ... madness.

NIU quarterback Jordan Lynch, who had done everything and more for the Huskies last season, hit a wide-open Da’Ron Brown in the end zone for a 33yard touchdown that tied the score.

Then, a few blinks later, here came NIU safety Jimmie Ward out of nowhere. He picked off a Jake Rudock pass to give the Huskies the ball at the Iowa 30 with 1:17 left.

Wait, the Huskies were going to win this game? After fighting and getting nowhere?

Nah, couldn’t be.

Yes, it could.

Mathew Sims’ 36-yard field goal with four seconds left was the difference in a 30-27 NIU victory.

“Just another kick,’’ Sims said.

“Just another win for our team.’’

I think this kid has been injecting ice water into his veins. He needs to be tested.

“Our guys just believe,’’ coach Rod Carey said. “And they have a belief that if it gets in that situation, we’re going to make the plays. We did [Saturday]. And that belief saw us through some tough times.’’

It’s hard to believe, but Lynch’s first start for NIU came against Iowa in last season’s opener, an 18-17 heartbreaker at Soldier Field. By the time the season was over, he had collected almost 5,000 yards of total offense, 44 touchdowns and 12 straight victories before the loss to Florida State in the Orange Bowl.

But if you thought this game was going to be a snap for him because of last season’s huge success, you were very much mistaken.

“It’s tough playing here at Kinnick Stadium, 70,000 fans cheering against you and being down by seven in the fourth quarter,’’ Lynch said. “It’s not easy.’’

FOOTBALL: CRYSTAL LAKE CENTRAL 29, GRANT 15

PREP ROUNDUP

High tempo offense serves CLC well

By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com FOX LAKE – Crystal Lake Central offensive tackle Cody Hodges remembers all of the conditioning workouts he had to go through this offseason in order to be able to play in the the new offensive system this season.

“I had to drop about 30 pounds in the offseason in order to run this offense,” the senior tackle said. “We’ve been working really hard all summer in order to be able to play this style and get the job done.”

The Tigers (1-0) unveiled the high-tempo offense Saturday night against Grant for the first time under head coach Mat Fralick and the new-look system played a large part in the physical 29-15 victory.

The offense is based on a

simple principle: Run a play every 12 seconds. In order to do that everyone on the field must be aware of what play is next. Fralick uses hand signals and simple one-word calls when relaying plays to quarterback Kyle Lavand as the team is hustling back to the line.

The idea of running the speedy offense sounds good on paper and has its advantages, something that the Bulldogs (0-1) felt almost immediately.

Midway through the first quarter, the Grant defense had to call a timeout as the Tigers were chewing up yards in the no-huddle offense at a rapid pace.

“When they called that timeout I knew that we put the right amount of work in and that we had them on their heels,” Hodges said. “By the second quarter, and especially at the end of the game, their

guys were taking knees and looked gassed. The work paid off.”

The Tigers were the first to strike and it came on a Ryan Williams 10-yard run to take a 7-0 lead. But the Bulldogs, trying to avenge a season ending loss to the Tigers during last year’s playoffs, returned the kickoff to midfield and scored five plays later.

Central scored when Connor Hines punched it in from the 1-yard-line at the end of the half to go up 14-7. Grant scored on its opening drive to start the half then forced Lavand to the ground in the endzone on the next series taking a 15-14 lead.

The Tigers offense came with some hiccups however as they fumbled the ball four times – but recovered all of them.

“It’s just something that can happen when you’re in a

new system at full-speed for the first time,” Fralick said.

“I thought we looked good though and played our smashmouth style.”

Lavand and the up-tempo offense had more good than bad and wore out the Bulldogs just enough for Matt Tegtemeier to get some space on a hitch route and Lavand hit him for a 47-yard strike to take the lead for good.

“I just acted like I was going to run a fade,” the wide receiver said. “Then I gave the corner a move and had some space and I just ran as fast as I could.”

The game got chippy before its end as Williams and Connor Hines were ejected on separate plays and won’t be available for next week’s home game against Crystal Lake South.

Olson: Still a lot more we have to work on

D-C romps Maroons NORTHWEST HERALD Dundee-Crown football unleashed its backfield of T.J. Moss, Cordero Parson and Caleb Parson on Elgin Saturday with favorable results.

Members of the Crystal Lake South football team tackle Marian Central’s Ephraim Lee during the third quarter Saturday at Crystal Lake South High School in Crystal Lake. Marian defeated South 28-2. defense produced three turnover and allowed South 218 total yards.

“When you see the defense come out and just be able to stop them no matter what, you know that even if you mess up they’re going to have your back,” Bahl said. “You can just go out and do whatever you need to do.”

Running back Eric Landis

finished with 14 carries for 75 yards to lead South, which also had one more first down than Marian.

“Defensively, we gave up three big plays, and that’s usually not us,” Gators coach Chuck Ahsmann said. “We felt pretty good about holding them to 56 yards rushing.

That’s our goal to make teams want to pass, and we gave up

too many big plays.”

Ahsmann was frustrated that South could not better sustain drives.

“We ran a lot of plays without scoring a touchdown,” Ahsmann said. “That’s the big-play part. They didn’t have to run a lot [of plays] when they had those big plays. We did some things well at times, just not consistently enough.”

the following play – killed a 13play drive in what seemed to be a theme of the day.

Still, the defense found a way to play through all of it.

“Everyone just played their hearts out,” senior linebacker Jordan Kabb said.

“We all wanted to win – it’s the first game of the season and we’ve been training the whole off-season. Our defense wasmentally and physically prepared.

“We just gave it our all and the outcome shows it.”

Bartlett took its first lead with 2:12 remaining in the third quarter after Huntley’s defense appeared to get off the field on Brandon Dranka’s

sack of quarterback Jordan Flint. But when a holding penalty negated the play, Bartlett got new life and turned it into a 2-yard touchdown pass from Flint to Clint Zierke.

Trailing 16-12, Huntley’s offense – which hadn’t scored since the second quarter on Donnie Young’s 24-yard field goal – found a way to finish.

Kawell, who finished with 149 yards rushing, put the Red Raiders on top with a 17-yard run with 6:48 remaining before closing the deal with his late burst up the middle.

“In the first half...we just couldn’t execute from the 5-yard line, 10-yard line, 15yard line,” Kawell said. “I knew we were going to score eventually, we just had to punch it in. It was just a matter of time before we got it.”

Sutherland: Team will learn from mistakes • CARY-GROVE Continued from page C1 But Thorson countered through the air, picking apart the Trojans’ secondary with three touchdown passes to J.P. Forcucci and a pair of touchdown passes to Matt Biegalski.

C-G junior Matt Sutherland, who played two ways as a running back and defensive back, said he and his teammates would learn from their mistakes. The Trojans trailed by one score with less than three minutes to go before

halftime, but Wheaton North struck twice in a span of 2:05 before halftime.

Sutherland said the Trojans would benefit from opening the season against tough opponents such as Wheaton North, which was ranked No. 9 in Class 7A by The Associated Press.

“It’s not going to be fun playing a smaller school and just dominating them,” Sutherland said. “This was a big challenge for us. I thought we learned a lot. And Lake Zurich next week is not going to be any easier, so it’s going to be a real test to see how much

we grow within the next seven days.”

Wheaton North coach Joe Wardynski said he expected C-G to bounce back in a big way.

“Looking at their depth chart, it looked like they were playing a lot of young kids Week 1,” Wardynski said. “And as they get going throughout the season, I know that they’re going to be clicking on all cylinders. I have a feeling that we’ll look back and say we beat a very good team because I have a feeling Cary-Grove is going to win a bunch of games.”

BARRINGTON 22, JACOBS 15

Jacobs’ rally falls short against Barrington

By MAUREEN LYNCH sportsdesk@nwherald.com ALGONQUIN – Jacobs’ football team had practiced this two-minute drill so many times in the past few weeks that trailing in the final few minutes of Saturday’s game against Barrington didn’t faze the Golden Eagles.

But as frequently happens in season openers, mistakes foiled best-laid plans. Two missed marks and solid Barrington defense felled Jacobs in a 22-15 loss to the Broncos in Saturday’s matinee, rescheduled from Friday night because of inclement weather.

While the two-minute drill alone didn’t cost Jacobs the game, the Eagles felt fairly confident in their ability to move the chains and keep their chances alive. It just shouldn’t have come down to those final few moments, quarterback Bret Mooney said.

“We definitely could have Josh Peckler - for Shaw Media beat that team,” Mooney said.

Jacobs running back Josh Walker tries to break free from Barrington’s Evan Struck during the first quarter “We knew as a team we could Saturday in Algonquin. Walker caught a 38-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter of Jacobs’ 22-15 loss. have come back, got two touch-

downs and finished it. It was on all of us. Throughout the whole game we made some bad plays, so we have to clean that up for next week against St. Charles East.”

Tied at 15, Barrington used a 3-yard run from junior tailback Dylan Abel to go ahead 22-15 with 1:45 left in the fourth.

Mooney launched a pass downfield to junior receiver Ryan Sargent on the first play of Jacobs’ ensuing possession, and Barrington was called for pass interference to set up firstand-10 on Jacobs’ 35.

Offsetting penalties on the next play ebbed the energy.

Mooney completed a 3-yard pass to Sargent before missing on second-and-7, then Mooney hit receiver Camden McLain for a 5-yard gain.

But Mooney’s pass fell incomplete on fourth-and-2, and the Broncos took over on the Eagles’ 43 with less than a minute to play.

“We battled back, and it’s just a shame,” Jacobs coach Bill Mitz said. We felt we could have gotten it there at the end

but just couldn’t make that big play.”

Jacobs had just minutes earlier.

Down 15-7 with 7:39 left, Mooney (16 for 27, 149 yards) found junior Josh Walker for a 38-yard touchdown pass and connected with senior receiver Hunter Williams for a twopoint conversion to knot the score at 15.

The Eagles led 7-6 at halftime, thanks to Mooney’s 55-yard touchdown run. Barrington (1-0) jumped ahead 12-7 on a 76-yard pass from quarterback Dan Kubiak to receiver Dylan Bingham less than 1 minute into the third quarter, and Broncos kicker Chase Lesniak lined a 31-yard field goal in the waning seconds of the third to pad the lead at the start of the fourth.

“We felt really good when we came back,” Sargent said.

“We knew our offense could put up points. But it’s the first game of the season, so we knew there would be some mistakes made. We just have to clean them up.”

NILES NOTRE DAME 44, PRAIRIE RIDGE 21

Mistakes on special teams cost Prairie Ridge in road loss

By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO mmontemurro@shawmedia.com NILES – Prairie Ridge senior linebacker Colin Leverenz eyed Notre Dame quarterback Ryan Greene as he rushed into the Dons’ backfield.

Leverenz’s third-down sack of Greene at Notre Dame’s 10-yard line was exactly the big play Prairie Ridge needed after the Wolves fumbled away the football only minutes earlier on their first offensive play of the season. Awaiting Notre Dame’s punt, the Wolves were poised to have great field position and an opportunity to break

the scoreless tie in the first quarter.

The Wolves would never get that opportunity. A muffed punt was recovered by the Dons at the Wolves’ 26yard line, and four plays later Notre Dame took a 7-0 lead on standout running back Chris James’ 4-yard run. It was a sequence that would play out far too often for Prairie Ridge. Five turnovers – including two on special teams – doomed the Wolves in a 44-21 loss to Notre Dame.

“What’s really disappointing is that was a point of emphasis over these last two weeks for us,” Wolves coach Chris Schremp said. “I’ve never

spent so much time on kickoff return and punt return, and that was the thing that killed us the most.”

Prairie Ridge (0-1) was fortunate to turn over the ball only twice on special teams. The Wolves struggled to cleanly catch the kicks and were fortunate to recover their own botched catch on a kickoff after Notre Dame took a 24-7 lead in the second quarter. Notre Dame (1-0) scored 14 points off Wolves turnovers and also burned Prairie Ridge’s special teams with a 90-yard kickoff return for a touchdown.

“It was very frustrating considering how much we worked on special

teams,” Wolves running back Steven Ladd said. “It made it look like we didn’t at all. We have a lot to improve on.”

Prairie Ridge’s offense struggled to get going in the first half, though Ladd’s 80-yard touchdown run on the Wolves’ first play tied the score, 7-7 with 6:41 left in the first quarter. However, Notre Dame needed only one play on its next possession, thanks to James’ 46-yard run. It marked the game’s third touchdown in a span of 52 seconds.

For the most part, the Wolves’ defense did a good job limiting James,

holding him to only two runs of 10 or more yards. James, who has Division I offers, finished with 142 rushing yards on 18 carries with three touchdowns.

Prairie Ridge started finding holes running the ball in the second half but couldn’t overcome a 30-14 halftime deficit. Ladd led the Wolves with 109 rushing yards, part of an offense that amassed 234 yards on the ground in the loss.

“I think at times we looked great,” Ladd said. “I think we’re a lot better than last year, we just have to fix some mistakes.”

FOOTBALL: RICHMOND-BURTON 26, JOHNSBURG 7

Rockets run past J ’burg

By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – Richmond-Burton senior Vince Battaglia had become accustomed to rushing the quarterback and stopping runs with his large frame at the defensive tackle position, but this season he is getting a taste of what the other side feels like.

The Rockets entered the first game of the season Saturday with questions about its backfield after losing several key players to graduation, but after a decisive 26-7 win over host Johnsburg, Rockets head coach Pat Elder can rest easier after watching the way Battaglia and a handful of backs handled their duties in the backfield during the win.

“Fullback was a question for us all offseason and it was the first time in a long time that Vince got to carry the ball,” Elder said. “He was pretty excited and not only was his effort great, he held on to the football and played a clean game at fullback.”

The Rockets (1-0) used Battaglia and his big body early on in the game to establish the run up the middle, which wore down the Skyhawks defense, but not before they made several decisive stops.

Johnsburg stopped the Rockets on fourth down on the opening drive to stall a long drive. The Skyhawks also forced a three-and-out on their second defensive series.

But the constant pounding from Battaglia took its toll.

On the Rockets’ third offensive series, Battaglia ran the ball 13 times and racked up 58 of his 107 yards on a drive that ate up 13 minutes of the clock.

Junior running back Brad Boelkow then scored the first of his two scores on a 1-yard sweep play.

“I felt good running because I felt like Johnsburg was just guessing the entire game,” Boelkow said. “Vince was such a beast, and that really had them thinking middle, which made it easier for me to get outside and find some space.”

R-B scored on each of its next three offensive possessions, using a combination of power runs and sweep plays.

It resulted in the Johnsburg offense playing out of its element. The Skyhawks (0-1) couldn’t get in sync and ran a predictable offense at times, which led to stalled drives.

“We run pass plays that set up our run plays and vice-versa,” Skyhawks coach Mike Maloney said. “We were able to execute them and we just couldn’t get in any sort of rhythm.”

The Skyhawks only score came in the fourth quarter, when quarterback Nick Brengman showed off his arm. After several deep attempts were batted away by R-B cornerback Kyle Kirby, Brengman connected with tight end Ben Stillwell on a 13-yard pass with 4:39 remaining. Brengman went 6 of 17 for 40 yards in the loss.

“We were sound defensively and didn’t make many mistakes,” Elder said. “We came out to play.”

Said Battaglia of his first start at fullback: “I got my shot, and it was amazing and really emotional. I was really nervous, but I just had to push them back and play.”

“(Fullback) Vince (Battaglia) was such a beast, and that really had them thinking middle, which made it easier for me to get outside and ind some space.”

McHENRY COUNTY CROSS COUNTRY MEET

Big day for the Beattie family

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Woodstock senior Maura Beattie was finishing her cooldown after winning her first McHenry County Cross Country Meet title when she noticed her training partner in the boys’ race.

Her sophomore brother Luke was there chasing the top runners. Maura Beattie hustled over to the finish line, by which time Luke had climbed all the way to third place. Toss in sophomore sister Grace’s 14th-place finish and it was a productive day for the Beattie family as the season kicked off at McHenry’s Township Park.

“Luke was really good,” Maura Beattie said. “I run with him every day in the summer. I saw him with the lead pack and came back to the finish.”

Maura won her race on the 3.1-mile course in 17:52.5, 45 seconds ahead of Jacobs’ Lauren Van Vlierbergen. Prairie Ridge’s Erin Wagner was third in 19:11.5.

McHenry’s Jesse Reiser ran away with the boys’ title in 15:33.9, 45 seconds ahead of his third-place finish in last year’s county meet. Crystal Lake Central’s Ryan Pitner (16:07.2) was second and Luke Beattie (16:19.3) was third. No team scores are kept at the county meet.

Maura Beattie has taken up this fall where she left off last spring. Beattie won the Class 2A 3,200 meters in the IHSA Girls Track and Field State Meet and had a strong summer of training.

“I got a lot of good miles and worked a lot on pacing,” Beattie said. “I went out hard and wanted to see how my endurance was.”

Beattie surged just past the halfway point of the race to make the margin between her and Van Vlierbergen. She continued to stretch the lead in the last mile.

“My only reaction was to chuckle,” said smiling Woodstock coach Matt McCulley. “It’s phenomenal the way she’s running. When you win a state title, two things can happen: You can put a lot of pressure on yourself and crack, or you can gain confidence and just go out

and say, ‘Try to stay with me.’ ” Van Vlierbergen was impressed with Beattie’s performance.

“I tried to stay with her up that hill [near the last mile], but she lost me,” Van Vlierbergen said. “Maura ran a great race to break 18:00. I ran six seconds better than last year, so I’m OK with that for the fitness level I’m at.”

Reiser was a little surprised at the early pace in the boys’ race.

“I didn’t want to go out that fast, but that changed when the gun went off,” he said. “I guess it was first-race jitters, everyone started off pretty fast.”

Pitner, one of the area’s top runners as a junior last year, ran a strong second, while Luke Beattie provided a surprise with his third. Beattie was 10th heading into the final mile.

“I went out strong and heard my time at the mile and knew I had more,” Beattie said. “One by one I kept picking off buys. At 2 miles, I thought, ‘I can run this last mile on empty.’ I knew I belonged in the top group in the area, but I didn’t know I’d be there.”

Memorable debut Mistakes haunt Woodstock in defeat for Johnson leads Warriors to victory

By KEVIN MEYER

kmeyer@shawmedia.com

By BILL PEMSTEIN sportsdesk@nwherald.com McHENRY – Even if McHenry had dropped its season opener Saturday night, the world of senior fullback Jordan Johnson wouldn’t have been that upset.

That’s because he’s seen some parts of this count r y w h e r e Jordan life isn’t so Johnson good.

Johnson arrived at McHenry a year ago. He came from a rough neighborhood in Chicago and arrived with a broken collarbone. He didn’t play football last year.

In his first game as a Warriors player, Johnson scored two touch downs running the football and another one catching the ball. Couple that with a pair of interceptions from another first-time starter, Gino Smith, and the Warriors chalked up a 30-18 nonconference win over visiting Larkin.

This team, blessed with great team speed, was hurt by a staggering 17 penalties.

With his new team trailing 12-7, Johnson scampered 10 yards, virtually untouched, as the Warriors regained the lead.

“My vision goes red when I get near the end

zone,’’ Johnson said. “It’s the red zone for me. I just wanted to score.”

Johnson seems to have found a nice place to hang out. He is enjoying his football adventure.

“I’ve come from Chicago,’’ he said. “And this is the best group of guys that I’ve played with.

It’s just a better atmosphere here and a friendlier crowd.”

McHenry took a 14-12 lead to halftime. Johnson’s second score came from 6 yards out and came in the third quarter and gave his new team a 20-12 advantage.

When the fourth quarter kicked in, both team’s offenses turned it up in a hurry.

Eight seconds into the final quarter, Johnson grabbed a 7-yard TD pass from quarterback Mike Briscoe.

The game looked safe for the home team up 2712. The visitors from Elgin weren’t quite ready to surrender. It was all of 17 seconds later when Larkin’s Kemmerin Blalark fired a 68-yard touchdown pass to Dante Bonds.

Larkin forced a McHenry punt and looked poised for a comeback. That’s when Smith recorded his second interception of the night.

“This was my first career start,’’ Smith said.

“On that play, I took an angle to it and he threw it right to me.”

WOODSTOCK – Things couldn’t have started better for the Woodstock offense in its season-opening game against Oswego East. It was quickly leading and seemed to do it with relative ease. In fact, Woodstock was pretty effective on offense throughout, but when it wasn’t, it was disastrous.

Woodstock turned the ball over five times, and Oswego made them pay for it almost every single time in their 4335 loss.

“We have talked a lot about turnovers this year and three mistakes were huge in the outcome of this game,” Woodstock Coach Steve Beard said.

The Blue Streaks took their first two possessions of the season and scored on both of them. The scores included an 82-yard run, on a reverse, by John Kruse and a 50-yard pass

from quarterback Alan Hafer to Jordan Sumner, all in the first four minutes of the game.

Then the mistakes started for Woodstock, which included four interceptions and a muffed punt. Of the five turnovers for Woodstock in the game, four of them eventually resulted in touchdowns for Oswego East, over half of their points.

Woodstock (0-1) kept answering back even recapturing the lead a few times before the half. Hafer and the offense struggled in the second-half though. They were unable to string together positive plays and it cost them.

Hafer took the loss harder than anyone, and after the game he put the loss squarely on his shoulders.

“I made bad reads, this one is all on me, I threw three picks tonight and they shouldn’t have happened,” Hafer said.

Woodstock was surprising unable to run the ball through

most of the game. Returning starters Nick Rogers and Michael Santucci were held to basically nothing all game, which hurt Woodstock’s balance on offense. Santucci may have been hampered by a leg injury that saw him on the sidelines a few times in the game.

The Woodstock defense forced five turnovers themselves in the loss and kept the team in it down the stretch.

Sumner had a huge game for the Blue Streaks. He caught six balls for 179 yards. Sumner also had a kickoff that he returned for a TD brought back because of a holding call.

Despite the loss, Beard saw enough where he does think this team will be in the playoffs for the first time since 2009.

“I think this is a really good football team, and we’re going to get better each day, we already have our sights on next week and Prairie Ridge, just have to make it happen,” Beard said.

THE 15U MCHENRY COUNTY OUTLAWS Tournament Team has open roster positions available for the 2014 after school season. We are looking for players that are passionate, play with high intensity, like to be challenged and want to learn to play at the next level.

Tournament locations will be mostly local with a few out of town. If you want to take your game to the next level and learn from 3 of the most successful coaches in the area, please contact Coach Gary at

BEARS SUNDAY

PRESENTED BY

Bears’ final 53 heavy at top, thin in middle Hallelujah, break out the champagne and let’s all have a toast.

Training camp is over, the fake games are done, and we are ready to meet our 2013 Bears.

As we predicted all along, in the end there was nary a roster surprise, unless you consider all six of the Bears’ rookie draft choices and three undrafted rookie free agents making the team.

Of the veterans who Bears fans hope will lead this team to victory, Jay Cutler, Roberto Garza, Matt Slauson, Corey Wootton, Henry Melton, James Anderson, Tim Jennings, Major Wright, Charles Tillman, Devin Hester and Robbie Gould are all in the final years of their contracts.

The boss, Phil Emery has made it clear there will be no new deals done during the season which means if this group wants to win a ring together, it’s now or never.

In more ways than we can count, Cutler is the key to the season. We’ve wasted a ton of time wondering whether he’d have one or two backups, when the reality is without him this is not a .500 football team. With him ... .

A ton more time has been wasted by folks who know nothing about quarterback mechanics talking about improving his mechanics. The Bears only reach the postseason if Cutler improves between the ears. He will be better because of Marc Trestman, and he is capable of excelling and getting back to the playoffs if he is willing to own Trestman’s system and execute exactly the way he is told.

The Bears are the same at running back but vastly improved by “the system.” Matt Forte was born to be a West Coast running back and could actually be an MVP candidate this year if the offensive line ... .

Martellus Bennett is an upgrade at tight end, but his addition has been overrated by too many analysts. He was a career backup in Dallas for four years, albeit behind Pro Bowler Jason Witten, and fairly average as the starter last year in New York. The Bears are better at tight end but not special, and still not deep enough.

But it is the offensive line that will decide the fate of this team, this year. The talent is upgraded

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush

by Jermon Bushrod and Kyle Long, but the questions run deeper than just starting two rookies on the right side. Matt Slauson was not invited back by the Jets, and Roberto Garza is 34 years old.

The offensive line can’t just be a little better for this team to contend, it must be significantly improved, and we have no idea yet whether it is.

The defense should be fine if Julius Peppers, Lance Briggs, Tillman and Jennings are Pro Bowlers again. Is that realistic? Maybe.

They will need help from Corey Wootton and Shea McClellin who need to significantly upgrade their games to make up for the loss of Israel Indonije. If those two can provide consistent pressure it will keep double teams off Peppers and pressure off the secondary.

The key new arrivals are Jonathan Bostic, D.J. Williams and Isaiah Frey. If all three can just be consistent and better than average, the defense will compete.

Where this group of 53 scares me is directly behind the starters everywhere but at running back.

Ironically, while the offensive line is the biggest question mark, it probably has the best depth with James Brown, Jonathan Scott and Eben Britton.

Nate Collins is a solid third tackle on defense, but Zach Minter and Cornelius Washington are just prospects, and like Khaseem Greene at linebacker and C.J. Wilson at cornerback, they are not ready to play.

Trestman needs some production from Marquess Wilson and Joe Anderson at wide receiver, and whether they’re ready to provide it is a huge question.

If absolutely everything goes right, this team can contend. But if just a few things go wrong, they’ll be watching the playoffs again.

Cutler can make a lot – financially, but if he “breaks,” he can still break the bank. Cutler would be entering generally uncharted territory if the Bears choose not to re-sign him.

Of the 32 quarterbacks starting in Week 1 – and for this exercise, let’s assume Geno Smith, Jeff Tuel and Terrelle Pryor start for the Jets, Bills and Raiders, respectively – 23 are playing for the team that drafted them.

Two (Tuel and Tony Romo) were not drafted, but starting for the teams they originally signed with as undrafted free agents.

Four (Cutler, Alex Smith, Carson Palmer and Matt Schaub) were acquired via trade.

That leaves Michael Vick, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees as the only starting quarterbacks in the NFL who signed with their current team as a free agent, and they all had extenuating circumstances.

Vick was a free agent after a 23-month prison sentence for his role in a dogfighting ring. When he signed with Philadelphia, he was the third-string quarterback.

Multiple neck surgeries for Manning combined with the fact that the Colts had the No. 1 pick and were ready to move on with Andrew Luck sent the future Hall of Famer on a free-agent tour. Manning is one of

BEARS INSIDER Kevin Fishbain the greatest quarterbacks of all time and was no ordinary free agent.

Brees’ situation from 2006 may be most similar to what Cutler would face if he hit the market, but it’s still a stretch. For one thing, the Chargers had his replacement waiting in the wings in Philip Rivers, and Brees was coming off surgery to repair a torn labrum. Daunte Culpepper was also on the market that year.

Brees wound up signing a sixyear, $60 million deal with the Saints, and things worked out pretty well for him, and the Saints.

Talented quarterbacks have been prevented from reaching the free-agent market in the last few seasons, let alone the final season of their contract. We saw last year what Joe Flacco did in the final year of his deal, and that’s Cutler’s ceiling, but his floor isn’t that low.

There always seem to be a handful of teams in need of a new quarterback every offseason, and Cutler would be the best one available.

Other top quarterbacks around the league have signed big extensions well in advance of the final year of their deals, but the Bears are making Cutler play it out to see how

CHICAGO – Starlin Castro put an emphatic end to his power drought with one impressive drive.

Castro hit a long solo shot in the sixth for his first homer in a month, helping the Cubs to a 4-3 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday.

Cole Gillespie drove in two runs with a single and a sacrifice fly as the Cubs earned their fourth win in 20 home games since the AllStar break. Castro, Junior Lake, Welington Castillo and Darwin Barney had two hits apiece.

Castro drove a 1-0 fastball from Zach Miner (0-1) to the center field batter’s eye for his eighth homer. The leadoff drive through a steady wind was his first homer since July 31 against Milwaukee and gave Chicago a 4-3 lead.

“I’ve been kind of struggling,” Castro said. “It’s been a long time since that happened, so I’m pretty happy.”

Castro went 2 for 5 for his second consecutive multihit game. The shortstop is batting a career-low .242, but the homer against the Phillies was one of his hardest-hit balls this year.

“If he can put that kind of swing on that ball to center with the wind blowing in, that was nice and that’s your game-winner.” Cubs manager Dale Sveum said. “Balls are coming of the bat like it did a couple of years ago and last year.”

Michael Young collected three more hits for Philadelphia, which has split its last six games. Young went 4 for 5 in the Phillies’ 6-5 victory in Friday’s series opener and is batting .588 (10 for 17) in four games against the Cubs this season.

NORTON, Mass. – Sergio Garcia opened with five birdies in seven holes, closed with an eagle, and wound up as the guy everyone was chasing Saturday at the Deutsche Bank Championship.

By everyone, that means 28 players within six shots of his lead with 36 holes to play.

And somehow, that includes Phil Mickelson.

On another day of soft conditions and plenty of birdies on the TPC Boston, Garcia had a 7-under 64 during a cool, cloudy morning that stood up for the 36hole lead when the long and wild afternoon was over. The Spaniard was at 13-under 129, one short of the tournament record. He had a oneshot lead over Roberto Castro and Henrik Stenson.

Tiger Woods, in the 1-23 grouping with Mickelson and Adam Scott that attracted a massive crowd standing three-deep in spots, made a 35-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole for a 67 and was among those within six shots of the lead.

Mickelson, however, managed to steal the show with a 71.

And this was no ordinary 71.

“I was playing terrible, and I shot even par,” Mickelson said. “I could easily have shot myself out of the tournament. I got it in the hazard I don’t know how many times.

If I go on and play the way I believe I’m going to this weekend, I’m going to look back at those nine holes as the key to the entire tournament.”

Lefty went on some kind of crazy ride, completely losing his swing during one stretch when he looked clos-

Liz Simonelli led the Scots with 42 digs and eight service aces, and Lilliana Klay had 24 kills and Danielle Patraut had four aces.

ROSEMONT – Sylvia Fowles scored 18 points to help the Chicago Sky beat the Atlanta Dream 85-68 on Saturday night and clinch home-court advantage through the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Cubs starting pitcher Chris Rusin delivers against the Philadelphia Phillies during the first inning Saturday at Wrigley Field.

Kevin Frandsen homered for the second straight day, giving him five on the year, but Philadelphia dropped to 9-7 under interim manager and former Cubs second baseman Ryne Sandberg.

Carlos Villanueva (3-8) pitched 1 1-3 innings for the win and Kevin Gregg got three outs for his 28th save in 33 chances. Five Cubs relievers combined for four innings of two-hit ball.

“Villanueva got four huge outs and then you can match up to get to your setup guy and closer and set what happens,” Sveum said.

“Obviously (home wins) haven’t been coming around too much lately,” he added.

“So it was nice to get the lead and all the relievers did a great job and we made the plays when we had to.”

It turned into a battle of the bullpens after lefthanders Cliff Lee of the Phillies and Chris Rusin of the Cubs each allowed three runs, two earned, in five innings.

er to hitting Rhode Island than hitting a fairway. He drove left into the hazard on No. 9, way right into the hazard on No. 10 and would have found another hazard on the par-3 11th except for hitting a tree.

He hit into the gallery to the left on No. 12 and into the gallery to the right on No. 13. His tee shot on the par-3 16th came up short and into the water for double bogey.

Mickelson closed with two birdies for a 71 and was five shots behind.

“It’s embarrassing to hit shots like that, and to have a bunch of people out there, playing with Tiger and having every shot exposed on TV ... you know, it’s embarrassing,” Mickelson said.

“But we all have our moments like that. And you just have to deal with it.”

His recovery shot on the 11th was so good that Mickelson didn’t bother explaining it. From a patchy lie, just inside 100 feet from the flag, the pin close to the edge, he took a full, hard swing with a wedge and hit it with so much spin that it rolled back to a few feet of the cup.

“To go ahead and try to play that shot with that much speed, and (he) didn’t have a whole lot of room up there ... but he pulled it off,” Woods said. “And then he was struggling through that little stretch there. But he held the round together, and had a nice finish at the end.”

Asked about the shot at No. 11, Mickelson replied, “I could describe it, but nobody is going to understand that.

It was a really good shot.”

He later tried. He mentioned the angle of attack and the angle of the face on the wedge and the weight ... and then he gave up on the explanation.

utive singles in the second, tying it at 1. Castillo had a tying RBI single in the third, and Gillespie’s sacrifice fly in the fifth made it 3-3.

Lee allowed nine hits, struck out four and walked three. The 2008 AL Cy Young Award winner is 1-4 with a 3.98 ERA in his last eight starts.

Red Sox 7, White Sox 2: At Boston, Jake Peavy pitched seven strong innings against his former team, Jacoby Ellsbury had three hits and the Boston Red Sox beat the Chicago White Sox 7-2 on Saturday night for their sixth win in seven games.

Ellsbury also scored twice and drove in a run for the AL East-leaders. David Ortiz, who snapped an 0-for23 stretch with a two-run single in Friday’s win, went 2 for 4 with a walk and an RBI in Boston’s 15-hit attack.

Acquired in a three-team, seven-player deal on July 30 that sent Boston infielder Jose Iglesias to Detroit, Peavy spent four seasons with the White Sox. The 32-

year old right-hander went 36-29 after being picked up in a trade from San Diego on July 31, 2009.

Chicago, last in the AL Central, had won 10 of 12 before dropping the first two of a three-game series against Boston.

Peavy (11-5) allowed two runs and five singles in his sixth start for the Red Sox. He struck out four and walked one while throwing 109 pitches.

Boston broke open a tie game with three runs in the fourth against John Danks (4-11), and then scored again in the fifth.

Ellsbury’s tiebreaking ground-rule double gave the Red Sox a 3-2 lead. Dustin Pedroia then drove in run with a groundout before Ortiz lined an RBI single to left.

Rookie Xander Bogaerts, regarded as one of the top prospects in baseball, added an RBI single in the fifth that made it 6-2.

Danks gave up six runs, five earned, and 11 hits over five innings.

ILLINOIS 42, SOUTHERN ILLINOIS 34

NOTRE DAME 28, TEMPLE 6

Illini almost give away Rees enjoys career opener against Salukis day in Irish victory

By STEVE GREENBERG Chicago Sun-Times CHAMPAIGN – For all we know, Illinois’ first and last victory of the season came and went Saturday. Given the final score – Illini 42, Southern Illinois 34 – one would have to accept it as a possibility.

The Illini can feel only so much joy after failing to put away a Bowl Championship Subdivision opponent that finished three yards, plus a two-point conversion, short of overtime.

“A win is a win,” coach Tim Beckman said. “It’s not a happy win, but we’ll learn from it.”

It was far from perfect.

Beckman’s team couldn’t run the ball, didn’t generate a hint of a pass rush, lost the turnover battle and nearly coughed up an 18-point fourth-quarter lead.

In light of what their Week 2 opponent, Cincinnati, did to Purdue on Saturday – Bearcats 42, Boilermakers 7 – it might seem the Illini need a few more weeks of training camp. Or a safe place to hide.

But forget all that. These are the Illini. They were 2-10 in 2012.

They were terrible. Many of them admit they all but quit on the season.

Who needs perfect?

“I feel great,” senior quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase said. “I feel awesome.”

AP Photo/The News-Gazette – Bradley Leeb

Illinois running back Donovonn Young spins away from Southern Illinois linebacker Taylon Hunter on Saturday at Memorial Stadium in Champaign.

Well, that’s more like it.

Scheelhaase deserved to be pleased after throwing for a career-high 416 yards – nearly three times his average (147.1) in his first 36 games as Illinois’ starter.

He, his teammates and all of Illini Nation (you’d think a whole nation would be able to fill more than half of Memorial Stadium) should, at the least, be enthused, energized, maybe even a bit hopeful.

Win or lose – even under the best of circumstances, there will be more of the latter – football is going to be so much more fun for the Illini this season.

How about a 52-yard heave from Scheelhaase to Ryan Lankford on the first snap of the season? How about a well-executed hook-and-lateral play? How about a successful two-point-conversion pass thrown by a tight end, Matt LaCosse? How about true freshman quarterback Aaron Bailey getting in the game to score a third-quarter touchdown?

Maybe V’Angelo Bentley’s 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown – the Illini’s first since 2008 – was just a fluke.

But it felt more like it belonged on a day when Beckman’s team made sure that, if nothing else, it was going to have a good time playing the game.

“All the players enjoy that,” Scheelhaase said. “Especially when it works.”

Maybe these Illini are a little crazy. They took possession of the ball at their own 6-yard line with 1:32 left in the first half.

Leading 17-7, they faced what seemed to be an obvious running situation. Kill the clock, and hit the locker room.

Instead, they put the pedal to the metal. Seven plays and 94 yards later, they’d made a statement.

“We’re here to win,” Beckman said. “You might’ve thought we would take a knee.

We ain’t doing that anymore.”

If that’s all Illini fans have to hang their hat on today, it could be a lot worse.

TOP 25 ROUNDUP

A&M clicks with, without Manziel The ASSOCIATED PRESS Texas A&M’s offense was practically unstoppable, with and without Johnny Manziel.

That Aggies’ defense needed all the help it could get against Rice.

Johnny Football packed three touchdown passes into less than a half of work for the seventh-ranked Aggies, who beat Rice, 52-31, in College Station, Texas, on Saturday.

No. 1 Alabama 35, Virginia Tech 10: At Atlanta, Christion Jones became the first Alabama player since at least the 1940s to have two returns for touchdowns, Vinnie Sunseri brought back an interception for another TD, and the Crimson Tide overcame a sluggish offensive performance to beat Virginia Tech.

No. 2 Ohio State 40, Buffalo

20: At Columbus, Ohio, Braxton Miller threw two touchdown passes before fighting leg cramps and Jordan Hall ran for two more scores to lead Ohio State to a victory over Buffalo in the season opener for both teams.

No. 3 Oregon 66, Nicholls 3: At Eugene, Ore., Marcus Mariota threw a touchdown pass and ran for two additional scores and the Oregon Ducks made easy work of lower-tier Nicholls.

No. 10 Florida 24, Toledo 6: At Gainesville, Fla., Mack Brown had a career day, Jeff Driskel was efficient and Florida opened the season with a victory over Toledo.

No. 13 Oklahoma State 21, Mississippi State 3: At Houston, J.W. Walsh threw for 135 yards and ran for another 125 and a touchdown to lead the Oklahoma State Cowboys to

a win over the Mississippi State in the Texas Kickoff.

By LaMOND POPE Sun-Times News Group SOUTH BEND, Ind. – The first pass of the day went for 32 yards and a touchdown.

It turns out, Tommy Rees was just getting warmed up.

The senior quarterback finished with a career-high 346 passing yards in Notre Dame’s 28-6 victory against Temple.

Rees completed 16 of 23 passes. He had three touchdowns and no interceptions as the Irish cruised in their opener in front of 80,795 fans Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium.

“It was good enough to win the game,” Rees said of his performance.

“We had some missed opportunities out there that we had to fix as an offense, but (I’m) pleased with how the entire offense played. We had some opportunities to take advantage of some big plays, which we did.”

Rees threw two touchdown passes of 32 yards to DaVaris Daniels. Rees also connected for a 66-yard touchdown to tight end Troy Niklas.

“Obviously, a lot of the questions coming in could we push the ball down the field,” Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said. “I think we answered a lot of those questions right away with his ability to push the ball down the field. I thought his patience was better and it will continue to get better.”

Seven Notre Dame players had at least one catch. Wide receiver TJ Jones had six receptions for a career-high

Notre Dame quarterback Tommy Rees drops back to throw a touchdown pass to DaVaris Daniels over Temple linebacker Jarred Alwan (center) Saturday during the first half in South Bend, Ind. 138 yards. Daniels had three touchdowns for 69 yards and two touchdowns. He left the game in the second quarter with what Kelly termed a “slight groin” injury and did not return. It was a precautionary measure, according to Kelly.

The Irish had 543 yards of total offense.

“We had hoped he’d throw the ball to us once or twice, and he didn’t,” Temple coach Matt Rhule said. “He had maybe one overthrow.”

That sharpness was evident from the first pass, a 32-yard strike to Daniels. The play capped a three-play, 77yard drive that only took 1 minute, 26 seconds.

Notre Dame’s next possession took just 1:01 and ended with another 32-yard touchdown from Rees to Daniels.

“To get early leads is great for the team morale,” Rees

said.

Temple’s only score came on a one-yard run by Kenny Harper with 1:01 left in the first half. Temple hurt itself by missing two field goals earlier in the first half.

The Irish responded quickly to Temple’s touchdown. Rees hit Niklas over the middle and the tight end rumbled for a 66-yard score to give the Irish a 21-6 lead at half. Temple stalled at Notre Dame’s 6 in the first drive of the second half and the Owls never seriously threatened the rest of the day.

“We kind of slipped up there a little bit in the second quarter before Troy’s long score. We had some missed opportunities,” Rees said.

“But I’m really proud the way the guys kept chugging along, and didn’t let a couple of stalls get us down. We kept moving forward, and it worked out.”

NIU doesn’t have much room for error • MORRISSEY Continued from page C1 It’s not as if the Hawkeyes are a great team or perhaps even a good team. They’re picked by many to finish last in their Big Ten division. But this was a huge step for NIU, on the road against a team from a power conference. It’s not farfetched to say that the only way the Huskies make a BCS bowl again this season is if they go undefeated.

There is little room for error here. They needed to beat Iowa, they need to win at Purdue on Sept. 28 and they need to run the Mid-American Conference to have a chance to do something special again.

“You [media members] can talk about the significance of it and all those things,’’ Carey said. “I’ll leave that up to you. You guys are way better at it than I am. I know this: We’re 1-0.’’

Coaches are way better at saying they’re 1-0 than I am.

The Huskies opened with a 10-0 lead and had every reason to believe that this was going to be everything last year’s game wasn’t. They recovered a fumble on Iowa’s second drive, which led to a field goal, then took advantage of a bad holding penalty against a Hawkeyes defender

Monica Maschak – mmaschak@shawmedia.com

NIU quarterback Jordan Lynch looks for an open receiver during the third quarter against Iowa on Saturday at Kinnick Stadium. The Huskies won, 30-27. on third-and-17. It led to a 40yard Lynch touchdown pass to a wide-open Tommylee Lewis.

Everything that NIU wanted to happen did.

Great teams take advantage of that sort of benevolence. The Huskies gave back.

Iowa’s Christian Kirksey relieved NIU tight end Luke Eakes of the ball and ran back the fumble 52 yards for the score. The Huskies also got beat on a 53-yard flea-flicker, which, it can’t

be emphasized enough, can’t happen. Before long, the 10-0 lead was a 17-10 Iowa lead.

It looked grim. But then, craziness ensued.

“We’re putting the program on the map,’’ Lynch said afterward.

It’s already there, but maybe the lettering is a little bolder now.

“I have people who came here with their grandparents and now are bringing their grandchildren.”

Planning can reduce estate tax burden While most people believe they do not have enough wealth for estate taxes to apply to them, the new concept of portability has the potential to affect taxpayers of all financial classes.

Estate taxes are imposed by the federal government on the transfer of property from one person to another at death. The Estate Tax return consists of an accounting of everything owned or invested in at the date of death. The fair market value of these items is used. This is not necessarily what was paid for them or what their values were when acquired. The total of all of these items is called the “gross estate.” The gross estate is made up of all property including cash, securities, real estate, insurance, trusts, annuities, business interests and other assets (real or personal, tangible or intangible) wherever situated in which the decedent had an interest.

Normally, the value of the gross estate is determined as of the date of the decedent’s death.

However, the executor may elect to value assets as of the alternate valuation date, which is six months after the date of death. The primary benefit of this election is the estate tax savings that result when the alternate valuation date reduces the value of the property in the gross estate.

Once the gross estate is determined, certain deductions (and in special circumstances, reductions to value) are allowed in arriving at what is called the “taxable estate.” These deductions may include mortgages and other debts, estate administration expenses and property that passes to surviving spouses and qualified charities. The value of some operating business interests or farms may be reduced for estates that qualify.

After the net amount is computed, the value of lifetime taxable gifts (beginning with gifts made in 1977) is added to this number and the tax is computed. The tax is then reduced by the available unified credit, so named because federal gift and estate taxes are integrated into one unified tax system.

A filing is required for estates with combined gross assets (probate and nonprobate) and prior taxable gifts exceeding the unified credit of $5,250,000 in 2013. This is done on Form 706, the U.S. Estate Tax Return. It is the executor’s responsibility to file this form within nine months after the date of the decedent’s death.

If unable to file Form 706 by the due date, an automatic six-month extension is available.

For married couples who die after 2010, even if a decedent’s gross estate plus prior taxable gifts does not exceed the filing threshold (up to $5.25 million for 2013), filing is required to elect portability. Portability is the ability to transfer the amount of the deceased spousal unused exclusion (DSUE) to the surviving spouse. If the first spouse dies and does not have a gross estate of the unified credit ($5,250,000 in 2013) the unused portion is passed along to the spouse by filing the Form 706.

While at the time it may seem their net worth will never reach that level – one can never predict the future, including the real estate market, value of securities, value of business, lottery winnings and inheritances on the impact on one’s estate value. With the estate tax rate at 40 percent, it is important to take the precaution of electing this portability now.

Example: Assume H and W are married.

H has $1 million and W has $2 million. H dies when the exemption is $5 million and leaves the estate to W. W lives another 20 years and in that time the value of her home, investments, business and inheritances increases her estate to $6 million. If portability is not elected when H dies then $5 million of H’s unused exemption is not allowed to transfer to W. If W dies and exemption is $3 million then taxable estate is $3 million, assuming the estate tax rate is 40 percent, the estate tax is $1.2 million. If portability had been elected when H died, no estate tax would be owed.

Many states have estate or death tax filing requirements separate from the federal requirements. A tax or filing may be required in both resident and non-resident states depending on the property owned or physically present in the states. In Illinois, if the estate has an estimated gross value of more than $4 million, a return must be filed, even if a federal return was not required.

As with all tax matters, you may wish to consult a CPA or competent tax preparer to ensure you are compliant with the law.

Tooth Fairy inflation: Tooth price nears $4

Customers fish the trout pond at Lake Julian Trout Farm in Cary. The former gravel pit was turned into a tourist destination 60 years ago and now attracts 10,000 visitors a year.

‘An ideal business’ Lake Julian in Cary thrives 60 years later

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com CARY – The Lake Julian Trout Farm in Cary began from a family’s passion for raising fish and now 60 years later has become a regional attraction for other families wanting to fish.

The former gravel pit turned trout farm annually serves about 10,000 visitors, many of whom come from the urban bustle of Chicago to escape and take their children and grandchildren fishing for the first time.

“I have many generations fishing here. I have people who came here with their grandparents and now are bringing their grandchildren,” owner Dorothy Miller said.

“It’s run by a family, and it’s really run for families.”

Miller’s father, Julian Dvorak, had the idea for the lake after he started raising trout on the property. Like his father and grandfather before him, Dvorak had worked the 40-acre area off Route 14 when it was a gravel pit.

He initially purchased 18 acres on the back end of the property and eventually purchased the entire area, transforming it into a recreational park for fishing.

Miller took over the business in the 1960s in an effort to keep Lake Julian in the family.

Miller and her two brothers still own separate homes on the land.

Miller changed the operating hours and relocated office space, but the lake’s main features are still intact from when her father opened it to the public 60 years ago.

Right inside the entrance, there is a trout farm holding

Jay Draper of Burr Ridge helps his son Colin, 7, reel in a trout at Lake Julian Trout Farm in Cary.

Lake Julian Trout Farm Located at 65 S. Route 14 in Cary, the 40-acre recreational park hosts 10,000 visitors a year and offers an array of fishing, including a trout farm. For information, call the Lake Julian staff at 847-639-3734 or go to www.lakejulian. com.

12,000 pounds of trout. Families have to keep what they catch from the small trout pond, but are allowed to catch-and-release trout, bass and other fish at the Big Lake, located on the lower level of the old gravel pit.

“As a rule, it is very quiet, very peaceful, and it is very rural,” Miller said. “People are coming to have a day in the country, more or less.”

The lake has also served as a place for company retreats and celebrity outings. Retired NFL

linebacker Brian Urlacher even used Lake Julian while he was still in a Chicago Bears uniform for a fan event a few years ago, Miller said.

Lake Julian’s longstanding presence in Cary has helped the area thrive throughout the decades, said Suzanne Corr, executive director of the Cary-Grove Chamber of Commerce.

People also rely on other area businesses for supplies for their trips to the lake, she said.

“It has put Cary on the map, especially with outdoor enthusiasts,” Corr said. “It’s also just a wonderful recreational site for local residents.”

Looking forward, Miller said she has no plans to give up the lake, hoping to keep the family business as long as she can.

“It’s an ideal business. That’s probably why it’s still going because I enjoy it so much,” Miller said. “I’m quite content.”

NEW YORK – Days of finding a quarter under your pillow are long gone. The Tooth Fairy no longer leaves loose change.

Kids this year are getting an average of $3.70 per lost tooth, a 23 percent jump over last year’s rate of $3.

And that’s a 42 percent spike from the $2.60 per tooth that the Tooth Fairy gave in 2011, according to a new survey by payment processor Visa Inc. Part of the reason for the sharp rise: Parents don’t want their kids to be the ones at the playground who received the lowest amount.

“A kid who got a quarter would wonder why their tooth was worth less than the kid who got $5,” said Kit Yarrow, a consumer psychologist and professor at Golden Gate University.

To avoid that, Brian and Brittany Klems asked friends and co-workers what they were giving their kids.

The Klems, who have three daughters and live in Cincinnati, settled on giving their six-year-old daughter Ella $5 for the first tooth that fell out, and $1 for any others. They said $5 was enough without going overboard. They didn’t want other families to think they were giving too much.

Then Ella found out that one of her friends received $20 for a tooth.

“I told her that the Tooth Fairy has only so much money for every night, and that’s how she decides to split up the money,” says Brian Klems, 34, a parenting blogger and author of “Oh Boy, You’re Having a Girl: A Dad’s Survival Guide to Raising Daughters.”

Confused about what to give? Ask other parents what they’re giving, said Jason Alderman, a senior director of financial education at Visa.

That can at least get you in the ballpark of what your kids’ friends are getting, he says. Alderman gave his two kids $1 a tooth.

“I think we were on the cheap side,” he says. Other families gave about $5 a tooth. One family gave their kid an antique typewriter.

“I have no idea how they got that to fit under the pillow,” he laughs.

As part of the company’s personal finance education program, Visa offers a downloadable Tooth Fairy Calculator app that will give you an idea of how much parents in your age group, income bracket and education level are giving their kids, said Alderman.

Advice for small companies: Take stock, take risks

By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG The Associated Press NEW YORK – The economy is showing signs of life and that makes it a good time for small business owners to re-evaluate how they are running their companies.

Now that crisis mode has passed, owners need to make sure they’re ready to take advantage of growth opportunities on the horizon. Experts say it’s time for owners to

think about taking some risks and to make sure that they are taking care of employees.

There’s evidence that owners are more confident.

Nearly half of small business owners say there will be growth opportunities in the coming year, according to a survey taken in June and July by the National Small Business Association. That’s up from 38 percent six months ago.

And the Wells Fargo/Gallup Small Business Index of small business confidence, compiled from a July survey of owners, jumped 9 points to 25 from the start of the year.

Of course, the economy still has soft spots, including manufacturing and sales of new homes, which fell sharply in July. And many owners are uneasy because they don’t know what health insurance will cost under the Affordable Care Act.

But owners shouldn’t give into uncertainty, said Paul Sarvadi, an adviser to many small business owners.

“I wouldn’t let the negative news and negative backdrop rob you of that innate risk-taking advantage and edge that you have,” said Sarvadi, CEO of Insperity, a Houstonbased human resources provider.

Here’s a look what small business owners should be doing right

now:

Look ahead Owners should take a break from the day-to-day grind and think about the future.

“Back away from the business and look strategically at next year and ask, ‘what can I do differently?’” Sarvadi said.

“Look at your [business] plan. Are you going to beat it or be behind it?”

Check credit history before selecting tenants Dear Dave,

DAVE SAYS

My husband was recently denied term life insurance because he has a criminal record from a long time ago. The good news is that, in a year, he’ll be far enough removed from the incident that he’ll be eligible for a policy. He has a whole life policy for $75,000 from before, which he doesn’t plan to cancel. We have two small children, so is there another kind of policy he could get in the interim?

Dave Ramsey

– Dana

Dear Dana, If you can’t get term life insurance, you can’t get whole life. It’s the same underwriting process. I only recommend term policies, but under these circumstances I’d keep the whole life in place because he’s basically uninsurable.

There are a couple of things you can do in this kind of situation.

One thing is to get a mortgage life insurance policy. These are usually

available without any kind of major inspection, and they pay off your mortgage, in full, in the event of death. It’s about 10 times more expensive than regular term insurance, but at least it will pay off the house.

Another thing to look into is an automatic issue-type policy. Lots of banks offer these when you open an account. Usually, they’ll send you an offer for a $10,000 life insurance policy. But if you pick up four or five of these, then he’s got another $50,000 on top of the $75,000 already in place. It’s still not enough, but it’s better than nothing.

But I wouldn’t spend a lot when he’s only got a year left until he can

get some good, proper coverage. I recommend people have eight to 10 times their annual income in life insurance coverage. So, if he makes $50,000 a year, he needs to have $400,000 to $500,000 in a good, level term policy. That’s what you guys need to shoot for a year from now!

– Dave

Dear Dave, I have a townhouse I’m preparing to rent. Do you have any advice for evaluating potential tenants?

– Chris

Dear Chris, The first thing I’d do is pull a credit bureau report. I’m not really worried about their credit score; I just want to see if they have a history of late or missed payments. Talk to some local property management firms and see who they use to pull these reports. I’d also recommend doing a background check on the po-

tential renters. Talk to the owner of the last place they rented as well as the one before. I advise this because there are some dishonest landlords out there who will tell you that a bad tenant is wonderful just to get them out of their property.

A lot of things, though, are simply common-sense measures. Have them fill out an application, which includes their income and a list of their debts. If they make $2,000 a month and have $2,500 a month in debt payments, you don’t want them as tenants. In this scenario, a smile and “I promise I can pay it” won’t work.

Spend some time just talking with them too. Really listen to what they say and how they say it. Get a feel for what kind of people they are, and, if they have children, pay special attention to the kids. Are they well behaved, or do they run around and act like a bunch of wild animals? If it’s the latter, then they’re going to tear up your house. And guess what?

If the parents can’t discipline their kids, there’s a good chance they can’t discipline themselves, either. You don’t want to get mixed up with that.

People who let kids run the household don’t make good tenants.

Finally, remember to trust your gut instincts. If you get a weird vibe from someone, or if things just feel strange, don’t rent to them. Chances are, there’s a reason you have those feelings.

WASHINGTON – A federal judge said Friday that the government’s lawsuit to block the proposed merger of American Airlines and US Airways will start Nov. 25, a timetable favored by the airlines.

The U.S. Justice Department had wanted the trial to start in March, saying it needed more time to prepare for the complex case. The airlines said that such a long delay would threaten their merger.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly said in court Friday that March was “too far off.”

The companies were close to completing a merger to create the world’s biggest airline, but the Justice Department and six states sued this month to block the deal. They said it would reduce competition and lead to higher prices for travelers. They said that the combined American-US Airways would be too dominant at Reagan National Airport outside Washington and on many routes around the country.

While the hearing before Kollar-Kotelly was mainly procedural, aimed at establishing timetables for reviewing documents and other preparations for trial, attorneys for the two sides did manage to preview their key arguments.

“This is a very dynamic industry,” said Richard Parker,

an attorney representing US Airways.

The two airlines argue that their merger would increase competition by creating another big competitor to United Airlines and Delta Air Lines, which grew through recent mergers. Parker also pointed to the presence of other competitors including Southwest, which carries more passengers within the United States than any airline.

“We will be talking to these airlines,” Parker said. A review of other airlines’ documents and interviews of their executives will establish competition in the industry is robust, he suggested.

But the Justice Department’s lead attorney maintained that the proposed merger raised a number of competitive issues, including prices and the impact on some markets. The government will want to question airline executives about, for example, how fees are set for baggage and ticket changes, Justice attorney Mark Ryan said.

And Ryan said it’s impossible to accept the airlines’ assertion that a plan to cut costs would make the combined new carrier more efficient and save consumers money, without the government being able to see details of the plan.

Parker cited the government’s previous approval of big-airline mergers such as Northwest with Delta and United with Continental.

“While more money is exciting news for children, parents should take this opportunity to talk saving and smart money habits with their kids and have the same talk with a perhaps overgenerous Tooth Fairy,” said Nat Sillin, who runs Visa’s financial education program in the U.S. How much kids are getting from the Tooth Fairy depends on where they live. Kids in the Northeast are getting the most, according to the Visa study, at $4.10 per tooth. In the West and South, kids received $3.70 and $3.60 per tooth, respectively.

Midwestern kids received the least, at $3.30 a tooth. About a third of all parents surveyed said the Tooth Fairy left a dollar or less.

Then there are the heavy hitters.

After losing her first tooth, 5-year-old Caroline Ries found a $100 bill under her pillow, along with a brand new My Little Pony toothbrush and a tube of toothpaste.

But there was a catch.

Her mother, Nina Ries, also left a note saying that the $100 had to go straight to Caroline’s college fund. The Tooth Fairy would give her another $20 to spend anyway she likes if she brushes her teeth every day after lunch for a month. She did, and 30 days later Caroline found $20 under her pillow.

Ries, a 39-year-old lawyer and owner of Ries Law Group in Santa Monica, Calif., said $120 is a lot to give, but she believes that she is teaching her daughter that education and taking care of your teeth is important. Ries said her friends give their kids about $20 a tooth.

That’s way more than the $1 Ries used to get for losing her teeth as a child.

“It’s incredible inflation,” she said.

Exploring Glass through the eyes of early users

By MICHAEL LIEDTKE The Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO – Geeks aren’t the only people wearing Google Glass.

Among the people testing Google Inc.’s wearable computer are teachers, dentists, doctors, radio disc jockeys, hair stylists, architects, athletes and even a zookeeper.

Some 10,000 people are trying out an early version of Glass, most of them selected as part of a contest.

To get a sense of the advantages and drawbacks of the device, The Associated Press spoke to three Glass owners who have been using the device since late spring: Sarah Hill, a former TV broadcaster and current military veterans advocate; David Levy, a hiking enthusiast and small business owner; and Deborah Lee, a stay-at-home mom.

Glass is designed to work like a smartphone that’s worn like a pair of glasses. Although it looks like a prop from a science fiction movie, the device is capturing imaginations beyond the realm of nerds.

The trio’s favorite feature, by far, is the hands-free camera that shoots photos and video through voice commands. (Images can also be captured by pressing a small button along the top of the right frame of Glass.)

They also liked being able to connect to the Internet simply by tapping on the right frame of Glass to turn it on and then swiping along the same side to scroll through a menu. That menu allows them to do such things as get directions on Google’s map or find a piece of information through

• RISKS Continued from page D1 Owners should think about how they get their sales.

“You have to aggressively make sure you have your best foot forward on every sale, especially those most likely to come in,” he said.

Keeping costs down should remain a priority because customers are willing to bolt to another business that offers lower prices, said David Rosenbaum, president of Real-Time Computer Services, a technology services company based in New York.

“You need to be putting an additional emphasis on figuring out

Sarah Hill, a Google Glass contest winner of Columbia, Mo., tries out the device in New York. “This is like having the Internet in your eye socket,” Hill said. “But it’s less intrusive than I thought it would be. I can totally see how this would still let you still be in the moment with the people around you.”

Google’s search engine. The information is shown on a thumbnail-sized transparent screen attached just above the right eye to stay out of a user’s field of vision.

Among the biggest shortcomings they cited was Glass’ short battery life, especially if a lot of video is being taken. Although Google says Glass should last for an entire day on a single battery charge for the typical user, Hill said there were times when she ran out of power after 90 minutes to two hours during periods when she was recording a lot of video.

Glass’ speaker, which relies on a bone conduction technology, also is inadequate, according to the testers the AP interviewed. They said

the speaker, which transmits sound through the skull to allow for ambient noise, can be difficult to hear in any environment other than a quiet room.

“If you are out in the street or anywhere else where there is any noise, it’s impossible to hear,” Lee said. “That has been challenging because there is no way to adjust it. If you could adjust the sound, I think it would solve a lot of problems.”

Hill, 42, a resident of Columbia, Mo., became a Glass evangelist shortly after she picked up the device at Google’s New York offices in late May. As the AP watched her get fitted with Glass though a video feed on Google’s Hangout chat service,

how to less expensively deliver what product or service you’re delivering,” Rosenbaum said. “You may not be able to charge what you did before.”

Owners also need to help customers understand their products and services are more valuable than what competitors offer.

“They have to figure out ways to communicate that they’re different,” Rosenbaum said.

Owners should take an honest, hard look at their companies and see if there are fundamental changes to make, said Kathleen Allen, a professor of entrepreneurship at the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business.

“You need to really analyze your business and say, what are the products or services I’m selling that are doing well? What are the ones that are not? And can I substitute them with something else?” she said.

Throw caution to the wind This is the time to take risk.

Surveys over the past year have shown that owners are playing it safe because of the economy.

These days, many owners see hiring even one employee or investing in an expensive piece of equipment as risky. But that strategy isn’t always the safest bet.

“To do nothing is to take a risk, and more often than not, it’s as great

Hill quickly began to rave about her ability to take hands-free pictures and fetch information from the Web simply by asking the device to get it.

“This is like having the Internet in your eye socket,” Hill said. “But it’s less intrusive than I thought it would be. I can totally see how this would still let you still be in the moment with the people around you.”

The liberating aspects of Glass came into sharper focus for Hill as she took a cab to the airport for her flight back to Missouri. During the taxi ride, she began a video call on Google Hangout with people living in Austria, the United Kingdom and St. Louis. As the cab was preparing to drop her off at the curb, Hill was about to end the call so she could carry her baggage. Then came her first Glass epiphany.

“That’s when it hit me that, ‘Holy cow, I don’t have to cut the call off,’” Hill said. “I could continue talking because I didn’t have to hold a phone. So I carried on a conversation through the airport and people were staring at me like, ‘What is that thing on your face?’”

Hill became accustomed to the double takes and quizzical looks as she wore Glass to community gatherings, restaurants and shopping excursions.

The encounters usually led to her offering others to try on Glass, and most were impressed with their glimpses at the technology, Hill said.

“When you have these glasses on, it’s like it helps you see the future,” Hill said. “It helps you see what’s possible.” a risk as taking calculated action,” said Dennis Ceru, an adjunct professor of entrepreneurship at Babson College in Wellesley, Mass.

Consumer spending and the economy can rebound quickly. Companies that can’t jump on an opportunity because they don’t have the staff or equipment may lose out to competitors.

Not moving forward because of uncertainty about the health care law is a mistake, USC’s Allen said.

“They will not get all their questions answered for some time to come. Do you stand and wait for everything to be figured out before you do anything to grow your business?” she said.

5 Questions You Need to Ask Your Boss Today

By Catherine Conlan Monster Contributing Writer Have you asked your boss any good questions lately? Your boss can be an excellent source of useful information -- insights into the company’s goals and culture, for example -- or an inspiration for you and your career. You have to ask the right questions, though. Here are five questions you should ask your boss soon.

1. “Is that the best use of my time?”

Andy Bailey, CEO and head entrepreneur coach at Petra Coach, says that this question takes guts, but it’s worth it.

“It’s absolutely brilliant,” he says. “I coach every team I work with to think that question for themselves when their leader asks them to do something.” It may be the toughest thing for a manager or leader to hear, he says, but managers should value employees who can think

on their own and ask questions.

2. “What keeps you awake at night?”

Andrea Ballard, owner of Expecting Change, says this question came to her after attending a presentation titled “The 5 Things That Keep Your CEO Up At Night.” “When I got back to my office, I mentioned it to my CEO, and he said, ‘Wow, I could sure add a few.’ I said, ‘Really?

Like what?’ And he opened up and shared some things that were complete revelations to me.”

Ballard says the question can provide a new perspective for both of you, and that answers will vary widely, depending on the manager. “My boss was nervous about speaking in front of a group of CEOs at an upcoming event,” Ballard says. “I offered to be a mock audience for him and view his presentation and provide feedback.”

Employees crave feedback from their managers, and some managers are more forthcoming with performance assessments than others. To get an idea of how you’re doing, you might just have to ask. “A business cannot grow if the team members don’t grow too,” Bailey says. “You go ask, then ask again and again and again. You’ll quickly be the rock star of the team -- that is, if you do the work needed to actually make the improvements.”

Ex-Tech Plastics, Inc. is currently seeking career minded

This is a question few employees think of asking their bosses, but Ballard recommends it for team-building and connections.

“I think going to lunch or drinks after work with the boss once a quarter is reasonable,” she says. “You could try and ask a few times and see how it is received. Some bosses don’t want to socialize outside of work, for fear of looking like they are playing favorites.” If your boss is up to it, Ballard recommends sticking to neutral, nonwork topics. “Only bring up work if the boss does,” she says.

Knowing the right questions to ask can keep you in the know or even help you grow your career.

Ask and see what you receive.

“Very, very few businesses do a good job of defining specifically what is expected of their team members,” says Bailey. “They may give an outcome -- like ‘sell 40 million’ or ‘get the work done by five.’” Instead, Bailey says, ask for a specific set of expectations for both production and culture.
