Davis faced murder charge after stabbing his mother By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A judge Thursday found that a former Johnsburg man was not guilty in the stabbing death of his mother because he was insane at the time of the crime. In declaring Raymond E. Davis, 24, not guilty by reason of insanity, McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather said prosecutors had proved beyond a reasonable doubt that Davis killed Carol Schritz. But psychiatrists have determined that Davis was legally insane. Davis has a long history of mental illness, having been in and out of hospitals, Prather said. He previously was found mentally unfit to stand trial. Neither Assistant State’s Attorney Sharyl Eisenstein nor public defender Kim

Messer disputed the facts of the case, and neither side made arguments during the brief hearing Thursday afternoon. Davis was charged with first-degree murder in connection with the death of Schritz, 58, in November 2011, at the home they shared in the Pistakee Highlands area near Johnsburg. Schritz suffered a single stab wound to her right upper chest. Messer said Davis’ mental state was “self-explanatory.”

kcraver@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The McHenry County Mental Health Board is poised to fire longtime attorney Frank Gosser at a special meeting next week. The board, under new leadership after a year of significant turnover, was already in the process of finding a replacement, but has decided to terminate Gosser’s counsel early and appoint an interim in the meantime, President Robert Routzahn said. “The current board attorney has lost the confidence and trust of the board, and we need to move in a different direction,” Routzahn said. The meeting to terminate Gosser will be Tuesday morning. It originally was scheduled for late Thursday

Kitty Nash worked through a financial checklist as part of her calculation to retire late last year from her vice president role at Home State Bank in Crystal Lake. After 24 years at the bank, Nash, an Algonquin resident, envisioned her day-to-day lifestyle, from morning to night, and the ability to manage those everyday expenses without the comfort of a daily income. “You have to do a real in-depth analysis of your life,” Nash said. “I don’t think anybody ever wants to do that. We just want to turn the key and write the check and be done. But in order to sleep at night once you do retire, you really have to analyze everything.” Nash’s financial calculation was an effort to plan for a sustainable retirement in an uncertain future that has recent and near retirees, according to new surveys, uneasy about retirement costs and their financial security. Maritz Research, a Missouri-based market research firm, found in a survey released in June that the financial tipping point for recent and near retirees was $500,000 in savings. Respondents who had reached that point were more optimistic about their financial security, less concerned about having enough money in retirement and felt better prepared for increasing health care and cost-of-living costs. Maritz surveyed 1,000 people nationwide at or near retirement with at least $100,000 in savings. The results underline the increasing importance financial security, rather

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Home office clutter can’t be ignored much longer I’m accumulating clutter, and I don’t know what to do with it. I have more than 2,000 emails that are knocking around in my inboxes on my home account, and I don’t even want to think about the backlog of saved emails on my work account. We have a Middle Room at home, which is set up as, gulp, an office, and I haven’t touched the clutter all summer. I’d rather not call it an office because that implies too much. The Middle Room is vague, yet accurate; it is the middle room, after all. It is loaded with a desktop computer, books, and so many files that I cannot keep track of them. And I have textbooks and articles and papers scattered about. The top of the desk, as opposed to the desktop, is covered with papers to be filed, pens, markers, a thermometer and items too numerous to mention. What I need to do is dive in and do a clean sweep on this, my day off. Fat chance. In the garage, in what serves as an attic, I have a couple of large plastic totes that are filled with letters from many years past when I was a youngster. The only time I have looked at them is when I have condensed

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Dick Peterson artifacts of my life from five to three to two totes. Now, I am at the bare essentials of my past. I haven’t looked at them in years, but I can’t stand the thought of throwing them out. They tell the story of my early life, and I picture myself someday reading the letters when I have spare time. And I really doubt that will ever happen. It’s been 30 or 40 years since I’ve looked at them, and what’s another 20 years? Are there thousands of letters? No, I doubt that. Maybe hundreds. But in two years’ time, I have kept knocking around in my email inboxes an accumulating number of old emails. I’m afraid if I delete one – or a thousand – I will instantly need it, but it will have been permanently deleted from the system. It asks that question: Do you want to permanently delete this item from your files? Permanently? There is such a finality to it. It will be gone forever, and it may be a senti-

ment that I one day will need to lift my spirits or rekindle the past accurately. I am not getting any notices from my email provider that I have too much in storage, and my computer does not seem particularly slow because of all the email taking up space, so I take the path of least resistance and do nothing. But the fact is, probably 95 percent of it is unadulterated junk that serves no purpose. Five percent might be real correspondence from real people, and I’d hate to get rid of that. But it is time consuming to delete that 95 percent, but I need to do it. In the computer, it is out of sight and out of mind. I can easily ignore the email clutter. But I can’t so easily ignore the clutter in the Middle Room, where the mess is there for one and all to see. Rather than fight it, I work around it. This morning, I took a shoebox from the Middle Room and put it with the recycling. That was a start. Really, it was. The box had been there for more than three months. Just in case. But summer is almost over, and I need to do something before the walls begin to close in on me as fall and winter approach and the days short-

en. I need to have a clear head, and a clear room, for those short days low on sunlight. I bought a tote for green hanging files to begin to organize the mess of the Middle Room a couple of months ago, but it has sat empty and untouched. Today, I promise myself that I will begin to fill that tote with files and begin to organize the Middle Room. I will give myself a couple of hours. I will file miscellaneous papers, probably never to find them again because my filing system is inadequate. There’s no sense to it, for the most part. Out of sight, out of mind does not work for the Middle Room because I walk past it several times a day, every once in a while sticking my head in and shaking it. Certainly, there is a way to organize it. The computer files are strictly out of sight and out of mind. But the Middle Room is a sight, and it makes my eyes sore.

Women outrun men in regaining jobs since recession WASHINGTON – The slowly recovering U.S. job market has helped women rebound faster than men: They’ve now regained all the jobs they lost to the Great Recession. Men are still 2.1 million jobs short. And the gender gap is expected to persist until the job market is much healthier. To understand why, consider the kinds of jobs that are, and aren’t, being added. Lower-wage industries, like retail, education, restau-

rants and hotels, have been hiring the fastest. Women are predominant in those areas. Men, by contrast, dominate sectors like construction and manufacturing, which have yet to recover millions of jobs lost in the recession. “It’s a segregated labor market, and men and women do work in different industries, and even in different areas within industries,” says Heidi Hartmann, an economist and president of the Institute for Women’s Policy

Research. Economists have long known that the recession hit men the hardest. “A man-cession,” some have called it. Or a “she-covery.” The August jobs report issued last week spotlighted the divergence: The unemployment rate for women was 6.8 percent – nearly a full percentage point less than the 7.7 percent rate for men. All told, 68 million women said they were employed last month. That topped the 67.97

million who had jobs when the recession began in December 2007, the government says. Among men, 76.2 million were employed last month. That was down from 78.3 million in December 2007. Since the recession officially ended in June 2009, education and health services have helped drive job growth: That sector added nearly 1.6 million jobs, the second-most of any category. And women gained nearly 1.1 million of them.

Kerry talks tough Colorado flooding cuts off towns, kills several in Syria encounter By P. SOLOMON BANDA The Associated Press

The ASSOCIATED PRESS GENEVA – Striking a tough tone, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry opened swiftly convened talks with Russia on Syria’s chemical weapons Thursday by bluntly rejecting a Syrian pledge to begin a “standard process” by turning over information rather than weapons – and nothing immediately. That won’t do, Kerry declared at an opening news conference, a stone-faced Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at his side. “The words of the Syrian regime in our judgment are simply not enough.” “This is not a game,” Kerry said of the latest developments in a series that has rapidly gone from deadly chemical attacks to threats of retaliatory U.S. air strikes to Syrian agreement with a Russian plan to turn over the weapons and, finally, to the crucial matter of working out the difficult details. “We believe there is nothing standard about this process at this moment because of the way the regime has behaved,” Kerry declared. And he kept alive the threat of U.S. military action, say-

ing the turnover of weapons must be complete, verifiable and timely – “and finally, there ought to consequences if it doesn’t take place.” Adding to the drama, Russian President Vladimir Putin weighed in from afar, raising eyebrows with an opinion piece in The New York Times that chided Americans for seeing themselves as “exceptional.” That was an apparent reference to a comment President Barack Obama made in his Syria speech Tuesday night, explaining why he felt the U.S. needed to take action. Congress has shown little inclination to authorize military action, and a vote on that has been put off. Putin also warned that a U.S. strike against Syria because of chemical weapons use could unleash new terrorist attacks. And he still maintained there is “every reason to believe” the weapons were used by rebels and not by Assad’s military. In Washington, Obama’s spokesman said Russia was “isolated and alone” in that view. Obama, for his part, said simply that he was hoping for “a concrete result” from the talks.

8BRIEFS Ethics Committee will continue look at Roskam WASHINGTON – The House Ethics Committee said Wednesday it would continue to look into ethics investigations of 6th Congressional District Rep. Peter Roskam and two other lawmakers. The committee also dismissed a potential case against Rep. John Tierney as “inconclusive.” The committee said it would take more time to examine cases referred to it by the outside Office of Congressional Ethics that involve Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., and Reps. Tim Bishop, D-N.Y., and Roskam, R-Wheaton. In Roskam’s case, the ethics inquiry focused on a trip he took to Taiwan. In July, when consideration of Roskam’s case was first publicized by the House Ethics Committee, Roskam took the unusual step of publicizing his own OCE report, saying he had nothing to hide.

Freshman numbers up at many Illinois universities CHAMPAIGN – Many of Illinois’ public universities are bucking a national trend of generally declining enrollment, welcoming larger freshman classes to their campuses this fall. Experts warn not to read too much into the increases, but the schools say higher numbers

show there’s something at work – from the University of Illinois’ strong science and math programs to marketing and financial aid efforts at smaller universities to draw more students, particularly from the Chicago area. Other universities with increases included the University of Illinois’ flagship campus in Urbana-Champaign, the University of Illinois Springfield, Northern Illinois University in DeKalb and Southern Illinois University in Carbondale.

Garman new Ill. Supreme Court chief justice SPRINGFIELD – Justice Rita Garman, who has served longer on the bench in Illinois than all but one sitting judge, was named Thursday as the next chief justice of the Illinois Supreme Court. The 69-year-old Danville Republican, who said male professors admonished her for attending law school only to find a husband and who began her career as a $90-a-week attorney for the Vermilion County Legal Aid Society, will replace Chief Justice Thomas Kilbride, a Democrat whose term ends Oct. 25. A judge since 1974, Garman was unanimously elected by her colleagues on the seven-member court.

LYONS, Colo. – Heavy rains sent walls of water crashing down mountainsides Thursday in Colorado, cutting off remote towns, forcing the state’s largest university to close and leaving at least three people dead across a rugged landscape that included areas blackened by recent wildfires. A storm system has been dropping rain on the region for much of the week. Up to 8 inches fell in an area spanning from the Wyoming border south to the foothills west of Denver. Flooding extended all along the Front Range mountains, including the cities of Colorado Springs, Denver, Fort Collins, Greeley, Aurora and Boulder. Numerous roads were washed out or made impassable by floods. Parts of several interstate highways in the Denver area were closed for a time. Floodwaters poured

The National Weather Service has warned of an “extremely dangerous and life-threatening situation” throughout the region. into homes, and at least a few buildings collapsed in the torrent. Boulder County appeared to be hardest hit. Sheriff Joe Pelle said the town of Lyons was completely cut off because of flooded roads, and residents were huddling together

on higher ground. Although everyone was believed to be safe, the deluge was expected to continue into Friday. “It is not an ordinary disaster,” Pelle said. “All the preparation in the world ... it can’t put people up those canyons while these walls of water are

coming down.” By mid-afternoon, some high-clearance vehicles were on their way to the town, where the Red Cross said about 200 people sought shelter in an elementary school. However, National Guard rescue helicopters were grounded by fog and low visibility. To the north, residents along the Big Thompson Canyon in Larimer County, scene of the deadliest flash flood in state history, were evacuated. The Big Thompson River flooded in 1976 after about a foot of rain fell in just four hours, killing 144 people. In a neighborhood northwest of Boulder, Dave Finn said he had to knock down a fence to release water that had backed up behind it. He said he destroyed his fence to save his house. “I’ve never seen it like this,” Finn said. “You know, we sort of roll our eyes when they say you have to be prepared for the 100-year flood, so here we are.”

American jihadi slain in Somalia The ASSOCIATED PRESS MOGADISHU, Somalia – An American who became one of Somalia’s most visible Islamic rebels and was on the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorist list with a $5 million bounty on his head was killed Thursday by rivals in the al-Qaida-linked extremist group al-Shabab, militants said. The killing of Omar Hammami, an Alabama native known for his rap-filled propaganda videos, may discourage other would-be jihadis from the U.S. and elsewhere from traveling to Somalia, terrorism experts said. Hammami, whose nom de guerre was Abu Mansoor Al-Amriki, or “the American,” was killed in an ambush in southern Somalia following months on the run after falling out with al-Shabab’s top leader, the militants said. Reports of Hammami’s death have cropped up every few months in Somalia, only for him to resurface. But J.M. Berger, a U.S. terrorism expert who closely follows the inner workings of al-Shabab, said he thinks the current reports are accurate. The rebels did not immediately present proof of Ham-

American-born Islamist militant Omar Hammami addresses a news conference of the militant group al-Shabab at a farm May, 11, 2011, in southern Mogadishu’s Afgoye district in Somalia.

Hammami was highly critical of al-Shabab’s leadership over the past year and freely shared his views in Internet videos and on Twitter, making him a marked man. Somalia has long been an attractive destination for foreign fighters, and al-Shabab counts several hundred foreign fighters among its ranks,

including about two dozen Somali-Americans from Minneapolis recruited over the past several years. Hammami’s death will hurt the group’s recruitment efforts, said Abdirizak Bihi, an advocate for the Somali community in Minnesota and the uncle of a young man killed in Somalia in 2008.

“We always knew the Somalis inside Somalia knew that al-Shabab was bad,” Bihi said. “We were concerned about the Somalis in the diaspora ... who never really knew the facts on the ground and were always manipulated and misled.” “So that’s why it’s a victory. They now know exactly what al-Shabab is, as much as the Somalis inside.” Terrorism expert Clint Watts wrote on his blog, Selectedwisdom.com, that Hammami’s plight “probably soured recruitment pipelines from the West into Somalia.” Along with Adam Gadahn in Pakistan – a former Osama bin Laden spokesman – the 29-year-old Hammami was one of the two most notorious Americans in jihadi groups. He grew up in Daphne, Alabama, a community of 20,000 outside Mobile, the son of a Christian mother and a Syrian-born Muslim father. His YouTube videos that featured him rapping and his presence on Twitter made him one of the most recognizable and studied U.S. foreign fighters. The FBI put Hammami on its Most Wanted Terrorist list in 2012 and offered a $5 million reward in March for information leading to his capture.

Routzahn says unsolicited memo was the last straw • HEALTH BOARD Continued from page A1 board, and the multiple items for which he bills. But Routzahn said an unsolicited memo dated Monday in which Gosser criticizes the board’s recent decision to pay $49,000 to a struggling social service agency – and states that he could do something about it – was the last straw. “I would say it’s a cumulative effect,” Routzahn said. Gosser could not be reached for comment. Routzahn said a majority of the board – now seven members with two empty seats due to resignations – agrees it should sever its relationship with Gosser. Routzahn criticized Gosser for the tone he takes with the board and alleges that he acts as “an agent independent of the board,” rather than its retained counsel. Critics of the Mental Health Board have pointed to the amount Gosser has received – he was paid more than $180,000 in legal fees last fiscal year alone – as further proof the agency under previous management has become an out-of-control bureaucracy that spends too much on overhead that should be going to agencies working with the

mentally ill and developmentally disabled. Seven board members have stepped down or been ousted over the past 12 months. Of the board’s current membership, only two have served longer than a year. The memo cited by Routzahn took the Mental Health Board to task for its Aug. 27 vote to give a one-time payment to The Advantage Group to keep it afloat. The board in 2012 cut off funding to the Crystal Lake-based agency that helps young adults with substance abuse problems after an initial audit revealed fiscal irregularities, including billing for unapproved services, noncompliance with Medicaid regulations and using Mental Health Board funds in an inconsistent manner from its funding agreement. “As the attorney for the McHenry County Mental Health Board, I am advising you that I am very concerned about the legality of the vote in question,” Gosser wrote. Gosser, who said the board acted “contrary to my prior advice,” advised that the payment violates state law governing mental health boards. He also cited an Illinois Supreme Court rule requiring an attorney to refer an action that could violate the law to a high-

er authority. The Monday memo coincided with a meeting of the board’s Ethics and Compliance Committee, which agreed not to forward Advantage Group any more money until the audit issues are resolved. The Advantage Group unsuccessfully sued the Mental Health Board in federal court, alleging it was trying to wipe it out so it could give its money to agencies it prefers. The $290,000 the board spent on legal fees last year was almost six times the $50,000 it budgeted – the board this fiscal year reached its $70,000 budget less than halfway into it. While the board’s insurance company retained the attorney who fought the lawsuit, board members last year – prior to any of the new members being seated – decided to pay Gosser to provide legal oversight for the attorney. McHenry County Board member Paula Yensen, who now holds a seat on the Mental Health Board, began pushing for more oversight of legal spending earlier this year. Yensen, D-Lake in the Hills, questioned the necessity of more than $83,000 in payments to Gosser over a two-year period for things such as reviewing meeting packets and agendas and processing Freedom

of Information Act requests. The board in July approved a rule that forbids an attorney from billing for any service not requested in writing by both the board president and interim Executive Director Todd Schroll. It is meant as a temporary measure until the board obtains new counsel and sets down solid guidelines for what services it will pay. The Ancel Glink law firm has agreed to represent the board on a $1,000-a-month retainer until the board hires a permanent replacement, Routzahn said. The board issued its bid proposals at its August meeting, with responses due by the end of this month. New counsel could be hired at the October board meeting. While criticism of the Mental Health Board’s budget and spending has gone on for decades, it was not until this year that critics were put in a position to shake up its leadership, namely through post-election changes to the McHenry County Board Public Health and Human Services Committee in charge of recommending appointments to its seats. The committee earlier this year refused to reappoint the former board president and has chosen candidates who have pledged fiscal reform.

Hearing to decide need for mental health services • STABBING Continued from page A1 Legal insanity means the defendant’s mental illness has impaired him to the point that he could not comprehend the criminality of his conduct – essentially distinguish right from wrong. In the courtroom, Davis was shackled at the hands and feet, appeared pale and had a scruffy beard. He didn’t speak at this court appearance, but in the past he has said in open court that he was murdered and raped while at Chester Mental Health Center where he is being held. Davis still believes his mother is alive and said he sees her at the maximum se-

curity mental health facility, Messer said. Davis’ family has said he was living at Schritz’s home for a week before the stabbing. Schritz had taken out an order of protection against her son in 2008, saying he suffered from bipolar disorder and schizoaffective disorder with paranoid features. She said that Davis had threatened her with a butcher knife. An upcoming hearing will determine Davis’ need for mental health services, be it inpatient, outpatient or no services at all. The maximum time he can be committed to a mental health facility is for a time period not exceed what he would serve in prison if convicted – 60 years. The hearing will be Oct. 30.

Lifestyle factors into savings • RETIREMENT Continued from page A1 than age, plays in a person’s retirement plan. Maritz found that most respondents believe retirement is an outdated concept, with 37 percent of near retirees saying they will have to work during their retirement. “I think there is a sense that retirement is not what it used to be,” said Rich Brose, a financial services expert at Maritz who helped perform the survey. “Folks have come to grips with ‘OK, I’m going to have to work a little bit; I’m going to delay retirement.’ ” A similar survey from the Employees Benefit Research Institute released in March found that 69 percent of workers said they plan to work into retirement. The institute conducts the annual report, randomly surveying 1,000 workers ages 25 and older.

The institute concluded that Americans’ confidence in a financially comfortable retirement remained low in 2013, after years of decline. But not all retirees need to reach the $500,000 tipping point to feel financially secure and comfortable about their retirement, said Terry Maryniw, owner of Maryniw Financial, a planning firm in Lake in the Hills that advises many clients on retirement. An individual’s lifestyle and financial needs all can influence the amount of money needed to last through retirement. But Maryniw’s advisers generally stress to clients the importance of saving early and often, spending within a budget and making sound investments, Maryniw said. “They have to be aware of what the costs of retirement are going to be and start taking action,” Maryniw said. “At age 60, it’s too late to be planning for 65.”

Help bridge charity gap Each summer, charity groups feel an acrossthe-board pinch in donations – everything from cash and food to clothing and diapers – until new efforts are reborn during the holidays. It’s a seasonal burden that nonprofit leaders have had to grow accustomed to. The problem for charities is that feeding and clothing the poor isn’t seasonal work. It’s understandable that For the record those in a position to give to charity McHenry County residents get busy during are known for being remarkthe summer. able when it comes to banding Children’s sports, together for a cause. vacations and other activities aren’t anything to feel guilty about. But as summer winds down, we urge people to remember their favortie charities. McHenry County residents are known for being remarkable when it comes to banding together for a cause and for charitable giving. Obviously, the volume of giving is often relative to the economy. Help replenish your local food bank. Organize a neighborhood party and have guests bring pantry donations. Send some new diapers to the Diaper Bank at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in McHenry. Donate some gently used items to the Blessing Barn in Crystal Lake. Volunteer at a PADS site or buy some raffle tickets from Big Brothers Big Sisters of McHenry County or another worthy charity. These agencies could use some help to bridge that gap from summer to late fall. United Way of Greater McHenry County, which filters donations to many local charities, also will be kicking off its annual contribution campaign later this month. You can find many ways to help local charities through this link: http://shawurl.com/rtl. We owe it to those who make sure the needy are fed, clothed and cared for in other ways to help them provide all year long. These agencies always find a way to do so, but would be in a much better position if we remembered them all year.

Pulpit free of politics Churches and other nonprofits long have been forbidden from endorsing political candidates. But erratic enforcement of the law has emboldened supporters of legislation in Congress that would end the restriction. Far from needing to be repealed, the ban on politics in the pulpit ought to be enforced more aggressively. A bill sponsored by Rep. Walter Jones, RN.C., would repeal a 1954 amendment to the tax code sponsored by then-Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson. The amendment says that churches and other so-called 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations may not “participate in, or intervene in any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office.” Jones’ legislation seeks to restore the “1st Amendment rights” of churches, but that’s misleading. Churches may have a First Amendment right to endorse candidates, but there is no constitutional right to a tax exemption. Los Angeles Times

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Obama, King opposites To the Editor: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream. Barack Obama has his father’s dream. Two completely opposite desires. Losing Dr. King was not only a tremendous loss for blacks, but for all Americans. We lost a great American. He was the finest example of a civil-rights leader, particularly, for his own race. His faith in God provided him with a true spirit of love for mankind and a deep conviction that everyone should be treated with respect and dignity. He wanted everyone to have the same opportunities for success while pursuing their dreams. He was an inspiration for us all. Unfortunately, his dream is fading away. The renowned civil-rights leaders of today continually play the race card or victim card. Then enters President Obama, promising to take away all the unfairness through every form of redistribution from others. When will this president give an encouraging message to minorities that they are just as intelligent, just as capable, can be just as responsible and can work just as hard as anyone to become suc-

cessful? Dr. King’s dream involved God in the solution seasoned with truth and encouragement. The dream presented today involves blaming everyone else. Jim Doll Huntley

Death of Pakistan To the Editor: Saturday marks the 39th anniversary of the death of what could have been a great nation. Exactly 39 years ago, humanity, freedom of religion, and freedom of expression suffered a tragic death when Pakistan introduced and passed a constitutional amendment deciding who is a “real” Muslim. Under this amendment, Ahamdi Muslims are forbidden from calling themselves Muslims and are required to denounce their holy founder, Mirza Ghulam Ahamd of Qadian, to vote and obtain visas. This amendment also provided a platform for Pakistan’s infamous blasphemy laws in 1984, and the only thing that is nondiscriminatory under Pakistan’s blasphemy laws is their application. These blasphemy laws have falsely and unjustly incriminated Christians,

Hindus, atheists and Ahmadis alike. As Americans, we should be thankful to live in a country that celebrates freedom of religion and freedom of expression. Additionally, we should mourn the loss of what could have been a great nation that had limitless potential. Erik Cuchna Crystal Lake

Fundraiser offers thanks To the Editor: On Labor Day, a fundraiser for infants with Dissociative Identity Disorder was held in Petersen Park in McHenry. Thanks to a handful of helpful volunteers, the event was a big success. An estimated 62 people attended, and a total of $1,057 was raised, mainly for research.

We had been nervous during the hot and stormy days leading up to the fundraiser, but we were blessed with blue skies and cooler temperatures. Oliver Scherz’s hand-squeezed lemonade was greatly appreciated nonetheless. The bouncy house was a hit with the kids, and everyone thought Cindy Blague’s huge potato salad was scrumptious. Everyone who attended left with wider smiles, fuller tummies, and a better knowledge of infant Dissociative Identity Disorder. A sincere thank you goes out to all who contributed to this fun event and important cause. It is truly uplifting to see that such a strong sense of community is still alive. Debra Vitsi Johnsburg

At AFL-CIO convention, labor embraces the new America LOS ANGELES – Having banged its head against a wall for years with nothing to show for it but a headache, the American labor movement is devising a plan to bypass the wall altogether. During its quadrennial convention here this week, the AFL-CIO has acknowledged that the laws protecting employees who seek to join a union have been rendered so ineffectual that labor must come up with new ways to advance workers’ interests. With only 6.6 percent of the private-sector workforce enrolled in unions in 2012, traditional collective bargaining has all but vanished from the economic landscape – taking raises, benefits, job security and much of the American middle class with it as it goes. “We are a small part of the 150 million Americans who work for a living,” AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said in his keynote address Monday. “We cannot win economic justice only for ourselves, for union members alone. It would not be right and it’s not possible. All working people will rise together, or we will keep falling together.”

There was a time when labor activists believed that the union movement would be the vehicle through which working people rose. For the time being, however, most labor activists don’t believe that’s possible. While they’re not abandoning traditional workplace organizing, they’re proclaiming a strategic shift. “We are going to expand the idea of collective bargaining,” said Tim Paulson, executive director of the San Francisco AFL-CIO. “You can have collective bargaining through legislation. You can have collective bargaining through ballot measures.” Working in a coalition with community organizations, labor prevailed on San Francisco’s city government in 2008 to mandate that employers provide health insurance to their workers or pay the city to subsidize low-income residents’ purchase of coverage. This year, the coalition also persuaded a hospital chain seeking to build a new facility to staff it with union jobs and to provide affordable housing – in a city where such housing grows scarcer by the minute – as a condition for

VIEWS Harold Meyerson winning city approval to go ahead with its expansion. By itself, labor could not have won these and kindred battles. “Even if all we cared about was our own contracts, we can’t even get those anymore without community assistance,” said Larry Cohen, president of the Communications Workers of America. So the chief business of this convention has been to redefine labor’s mission. Unable to build traditional unions the traditional way, the AFLCIO has committed itself to building the kinds of coalitions that won expanded health care and affordable lofts in San Francisco. For several decades, unions have aligned with other key liberal constituencies on a host of discrete battles – immigration reform, voting rights (again), financial regulation, universal health coverage – but now it wants to cement these alliances in permanent coalitions.

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

That doesn’t mean that labor will seek to encompass its progressive allies within its own ranks, as some union leaders suggested in recent weeks. The thought of putting the president of the Sierra Club on the AFL-CIO executive council drove some building trades leaders batty. But it does mean that labor will commit resources to building omnibus organizations where union and environmental (and other) leaders work for a common program. The growing synergy between unions and their allies was illustrated when Trumka allowed three such allies – including Terry O’Neill, president of the National Organization for Women – to speak Monday on behalf of the resolution committing the AFL-CIO to this coalition work, even though they weren’t convention delegates. One group that the AFL-CIO has committed to including in its ranks – and, in some cases, has already brought in – consists of workers not covered by conventional collective bargaining agreements or who may not even be eligible for such coverage under the terms of the National Labor Relations Act. These include

cab drivers (ostensibly independent contractors, even though most work for taxi companies), domestic workers and day laborers – a host of largely immigrant workers who have found ways to bargain collectively by persuading city councils and legislatures to raise their incomes or limit their hours. Their battles have also been waged in coalition with groups advocating immigrants’ rights, women’s rights, civil rights and religious organizations. The labor movement making common cause with the multiracial panoply of progressive constituencies has long been similarly “multi” at its base, but now that diversity (including gender diversity) has reached its upper echelons as well. This is the first AFL-CIO convention – meetings attended chiefly by union leaders, not rank-and-filers – that hasn’t looked like a bunch of middleaged white guys. The union movement now looks like the new America – and is trying to figure out how best to champion that new America’s interests. • Harold Meyerson is editor-atlarge of The American Prospect.

POLICE: MAN HAD HEROIN AT STOP WOODSTOCK – Police say they found heroin on a Woodstock man during a traffic stop Tuesday afternoon. Daniel M. Stolzke, 56, of 808 Roosevelt Road, Woodstock, was charged with possession of a controlled substance, a Class 4 felony, after he allegedly was carrying 1.6 grams of heroin with him in a car driven by a Richmond man. The street value of the drugs seized is about $200, according to a news release from the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office, which made the arrest. Police charged the driver, Matthew D. Bell, 32, of 10004 Maiden Lane, Richmond, with obstructing justice and driving without a valid license, both Class A misdemeanors. Police pulled over the vehicle driven by Bell about 1 p.m. near the intersection of Route 120 and Greenwood Road near Woodstock. The bonds for Stolzke and Bell were set at $10,000 and $1,500, respectively.

Workplace stigma targeted Initiative aims to help prospective employees with troubled backgrounds By LAWERENCE SYNETT lsynett@shawmedia.com Calling all McHenry County business owners: It’s time to start hiring employees with backgrounds that involve mental health issues, addiction and prior run-ins with the law.

That is the message Michelle Durpetti is spreading through a countywide effort targeting a select group of residents trying to re-enter or enter the workforce. “Our goal is to bring businesses, the community, social workers and consumers together to address the large gap

A Huntley teenager was driving 45 mph over the speed limit when police stopped him Tuesday. A McHenry County sheriff’s deputy clocked the 16-year-old Huntley boy driving 100 mph in a 55 mph zone. He was driving his 2001 Jeep Cherokee north on Coyne Station Road toward Ernesti Road near Huntley, according to a news release from the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

His parents were called to the scene and took custody of their child, the release said.

CARPENTERSVILLE – An unexpected, $4.4 million increase in state aid has helped Carpentersvillebased District 300 balance its tentative budget, but slight cuts in other areas will limit the district’s newfound surplus. Chief Financial Officer Susan Harkin reported to board members earlier this week that the district’s $200plus million spending plan now has a minor $100,000 surplus, after officials earlier this summer had projected a roughly $2 million deficit. The deficit was erased after the district learned last month that it would receive a $4.4 million increase in general state aid that pays for educational services. Declining property values and slightly higher enrollment entitled the district to the largest allowable aid reimbursement from the state. But the state also cut its transportation funding to the district by $800,000, which partly limits the new surplus. “On the one hand, the state gives money, and on another hand, the state takes it away,” Harkin told members.

Trout Valley asks Cary District 47 budget to provide police service outlook improves By JEFF ENGELHARDT

Private security firm currently patrols village By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com CARY – Trout Valley officials have asked the village of Cary to renew discussions about having its neighbors handle police coverage. Currently, Trout Valley has a private security firm, which does not have law enforcement powers, handling patrols. The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office has jurisdiction in the village and does some patrols. Trout Valley in the past has asked Cary to consider handling police duties for the small village. “There’s always an interest there because of the proximity [to Cary], although once the sheriff’s

Message and data rates apply. office set up the substation at the township, it became less of a need,” Trout Valley Village President Bob Baker said. “Years ago, it used to be when we call the sheriff, they could be across the county. Now they’re much more responsive, but they have a bigger area to cover.” Baker said the idea of having Cary provide police coverage to Trout Valley comes up every few years. After some recent discussions with other municipalities, Trout Valley decided to approach Cary again. “It’s time to bring it up again and see if the interest level was there,” Baker said. Past proposals from Trout Valley have included paying Cary for patrols through the small village, and even paying the salary

for one officer. Cary Village Administrator Chris Clark said adding Trout Valley as a patrol area is something the village needs to evaluate to see whether it would be possible from a budgetary point of view. “It’s important to replicate the service Cary residents would receive,” Clark said. “It comes down to wanting to be good to a neighbor first, but also looking at the financial model versus the enhanced liability and see what kind of efficiencies can be run.” Clark did add the concept of having an officer in Trout Valley at all times “doesn’t make sense,” as the village is only 0.43 square miles.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Days before its public budget hearing, Crystal Lake School District 47 board members received rare good news from the state that means more than $500,000 extra for next year’s budget. Kevin Werner, chief financial officer for District 47, told Finance Committee members the state’s decision to prorate general state aid at 88.7 percent is well above his conservative estimate and would result in $619,082 for the district. The unexpected cash influx is expected to increase the district’s operating fund surplus from an initially projected $182,009 to $644,141. It will help the district turn an overall deficit across the four major funds into a small surplus. “Many districts were happily surprised with this extra money the state of Illinois was willing to pay us,” he said. The pleasant surprise came with a familiar reality check. Werner said the district

still was facing a string of deficit spending over the next five years that could total $1.1 million by fiscal 2017-18. Running deficits in the operating fund would go against board policy, although fund balances would be healthy enough to cover the shortfalls. Board member Ryan Farrell said the board had no intention of following the projected path, and the long-term deficit spending estimates just showed the board still had adjustments to make to meet its fiscal policies. “The idea isn’t that we’re planning to deficit spend $1.1 million over five years,” he said. “It just gives us an idea what we need to work on to get that into line.” The board will conduct a public hearing on the budget at 7 p.m. Monday at the Core Center Central Office, 300 Commerce Drive in Crystal Lake. The board also is expected to vote on the budget after the hearing.

ALGONQUIN: ACCIDENT

Two McHenry men charged with burglary McHENRY – Two McHenry men have been charged in connection with multiple vehicle burglaries that occurred Sunday. Blake R. Alberts, 20, of 1517 N. Maple Court in McHenry, and Austin A. Gehrke, 21, of 4221 W. Parkway Ave. in McHenry, have been charged with a combined three counts of burglary to a motor vehicle and two counts of obstructing a peace officer. Both men face Class 2 felonies, which are punishable by up to seven years in prison. McHenry police responded to a burglary report in the 1600 block of Riverside Drive on Sunday at 2:25 a.m., according to a news release. Officers received a description of the offenders and later located Alberts and Gehrke in neighboring backyards. After interviewing the men and collecting evidence, officers linked them to other burglaries in McHenry and unincorporated areas, according to the release. An investigation is ongoing, and more charges could be filed.

Cary Trustee Bruce Kaplan said if the village does take on Trout Valley’s area, it has to work economically. “I don’t see anybody against the concept, [but] the numbers have to work, and it has to be a win-win,” Kaplan said.

Baker said Trout Valley residents understand their private security firm doesn’t have police powers, but it does try to learn all of the residents’ names and learn their routines. However, “residents ... wish they had police powers,” Baker said. Trout Valley annually has spent up to $60,000 a year for

8OBITUARIES JANET LOIS COSTELLO Born: July 11, 1933; in Cosmos, Minn. Died: Sept. 10, 2013; in Las Vegas, Nev. LAS VEGAS, Nev. — Jan Costello passed away peacefully Tuesday, Sept. 10, 2013, with her two children at her side. She died just as she lived, with dignity and grace. She was born in Cosmos, Minn. She graduated from Roosevelt High School in Minneapolis, Minn., and from the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Arts in music. She was a gifted pianist and organist. Jan lived and worked in Germany and did extensive traveling all over the world. She was the first female teacher at the all-boys Shattuck School in Faribault, Minn. She also starred as “Dolly” in “Hello Dolly” in Rochester, Minn. She moved to Las Vegas, Nev., in the late 1980s. It was in Las Vegas that she held her favorite job as a substitute teacher at The Academy of International Studies, Performing and Visual Arts. Jan lived her life to the fullest. She dearly loved politics, travel, music, and her family and friends. She was proceeded in death by two sons, Jeffrey and Billy. She is survived by her children, Jon Furlow (Brenda) of Madison, Wis., and Mary Lyman (Tim) of Algonquin; her five grandchildren, Matthew, Rachel, Colin, Erin and Delaney; and a brother, Gene Gregory. She was loved and cared for by her dear friend and caregiver, Gerry. She was also helped often by neighbors, Jose and Linda. A special thanks to Mike and Niru at Nathan Adelson Hospice for caring so compassionately for Jan. She will be dearly missed by those who knew and loved her. Services will be planned at a later date in Madison, Wis. Sign the guest book at www. NWHerald.com/obits

Graveside services will be in Chapel Hill Gardens in Weirton, W. Va., at a later date. For information, call James A. O’Connor Funeral Home in Huntley at 847-669-5111.

ROBERT J. GERLOFF Born: July 14, 1926; in Woodstock Died: Sept. 10, 2013; in Woodstock WOODSTOCK – Robert Joseph Gerloff, 87, passed away at his home in rural Woodstock Tuesday, Sept. 10, 2013, in the same house where he was born, on the farm where he lived his whole life. He was born to August and Helena (Stake) Gerloff on July 14, 1926, along with his twin sister, Ruth (Hemmingsen Case), joining their older sister, Evelyn (Hart), to complete the family unit. Bob married Eleanor Lorraine Eckert on May 24, 1952, at Grace Lutheran Church, Woodstock, and with her raised five children. Eleanor

became active in Bob’s dairy business, resulting in a partnership that lasted throughout their married life. In 1972, Bob and Eleanor sold their first registered bull for use in artificial insemination. The sale of registered dairy cattle from their small family farm to Holstein breeders on five different continents has left a lasting genetic legacy in the global dairy industry. Their dairy herd was routinely among the top herds in the county and state in dairy production. Both Bob and Eleanor valued education and willingly sent all five children to college with the income of their small farm. Bob’s grandparents bought the farm in 1895. Bob began running it in 1944, at age 17, after his father passed away, eventually purchasing it from the family estate. The family celebrated the farm’s centennial in 1995. Bob was a longtime member of the Woodstock Progressive Milk Producers Association, a farmer run cooperative, and served for many years on the board of directors. When he retired from milking in 1996, he became executive secretary of the association and held that job part time until his passing. Over the years, Bob served as a member and an officer on many agriculture related boards, including McHenry-Lake County Holstein Association and the McHenry-Lake Dairy Herd Improvement Association (DHIA). After he retired from milking, he volunteered as a docent at the McHenry County Historical Society, sharing his knowledge of farming with school groups. Bob was known for his self-discipline and hard work – he milked cows almost daily from age 9 to 70 – as well as his kindness, gentleness, personal integrity, wisdom and strength of character. He loved animals and had a profound appreciation of the natural world – and his weather predictions were right every time.

CL SOUTH 2, CARY-GROVE 0

South duo difficult to defend By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO mmontemurro@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The chemistry between Crystal Lake South junior setter Cassy Sivesind and junior outside hitter Carly Nolan has been brewing for years. Friends since preschool and longtime neighbors, Sivesind and Nolan have grown up together on and off the volleyball court. That camaraderie has paid off this season for the Gators and was on display Thursday against CaryGrove. Nolan was an unstoppable force, go-

Sivesind found Nolan early and often against C-G, setting up Nolan for the winning kill in Game 1 and their connection didn’t stop there. Nolan’s three kills late in the second game – part of her match-high 11 kills – gave the Gators a five-point lead en route to the 25-15, 25-21

Fox Valley Conference Valley Division win. “We always connect and think the same thing,” Sivesind said of Nolan. “It’s just so easy. I can set her anything and she’ll just put it away for me.” The Gators (9-1 overall, 3-0 FVC Valley) needed impressive runs in both games to put away the Trojans (7-2, 2-1). With Game 1 tied at 9 and Sivesind at the service line, South ripped off a 12-0 run, which finally came to an end on C-G junior outside hitter Abby Schebel’s kill.

Skyhawks can’t get over hump VIEWS Tom Musick

first play of the second half for a 14-7 lead. Grayslake Central scored again with 1:45 remaining in the quarter, then recovered a high pop-up kickoff that hit the turf and scored again with 39 seconds to go. “Malcolm’s run really got our confidence going,” Rams coach Ben Ault said. “In the first two games, we’ve been slow in the first half, then got going in the second half.” Brengman found a rhythm with his receivers in the fourth quarter, hitting Alec Graef for a 46-yard touchdown with 10:48 remaining. The Skyhawks made things interesting with another scoring drive, capped by Brengman’s one-yard run with 3:20 to go.

GRAYSLAKE – This is how you make a bracelet. First, you take a request from one of your beloved Johnsburg Skyhawks players. Second, you get some extrastretchy string and some blue and yellow beads. Finally, you – well, here, take it from the expert. “You have to have all of the beads completely by themselves,” said Madi Maloney, the 5-year-old daughter of Johnsburg coach Mike Maloney. “And then you have to add them to the bracelet.” That sounds like a lot of work. “Yeah,” Madi said with a nod. “It’s a lot of work.” So is building up a football program. Johnsburg’s latest loss was heartbreaking, gut wrenching, hair pulling, you name it. The Skyhawks scored first, then allowed 28 unanswered points, and then rallied with a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns to knock on the door of a wild comeback. And then the clock hit 0:00, and the Skyhawks lost, 28-21, to Grayslake Central. But the real story here isn’t about a nearly 3-year-old losing streak that stretched to 24 games on the rubberized turf of William C. Eiserman Stadium. It’s not about the thin roster featuring 27 players or the coach still waiting on his first career win. It’s about a family. Family is what happens when the Maloneys – dad Mike, mom Sarah, 5-year-old Madi and 2-yearold Kaile – host Skyhawks players during the week to sit down for dinner and then watch game film. “I can’t get them to sit still for more than five minutes at a time,” Sarah Maloney said with a smile as she looked toward her daughters.

Rams hold off Johnsburg as losing streak reaches 24 By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com GRAYSLAKE – Johnsburg junior receiver Haden Franzen hardly could believe the Skyhawks’ good fortune when they got the ball back for one more shot with 2:38 to play. Defensive end Eric Wagner had just pounced on a fumble when Grayslake Central quarterback Alex Lennartz did not handle the center snap. And there were the Skyhawks, who had scored twice in the fourth quarter, 26 yards from the end zone with a chance to tie the score. “I was so excited,” Franzen said. “It felt so good to be in that game. I’m awestruck. I just love playing football with my team. We were

It stinks to lose like that.” Six plays later, Skyhawks quarterback Nick Brengman was intercepted on fourth-and-17 and the Rams had sealed their 28-21 Fox Valley Conference Fox Division football victory Thursday at William C. Eiserman Stadium. Johnsburg (0-3 overall, 0-1 FVC

Fox) had experienced its 24th consecutive defeat, but this one came with a different feeling. It was the first time in a long time they had been that close. “They’re so invested in what we’re doing that it hurts,” Johnsburg coach Mike Maloney said. “We’ve got character. We just made too many mistakes as a collective group. I made too many mistakes too.” The Skyhawks sensed another new feeling early in the game, when they grabbed a 7-0 lead on Brengman’s first touchdown pass of the night, an 8-yard score to receiver Bailey Stefka. The third quarter was pivotal for the Rams, though, as running back Malcolm Reed (19 carries, 168 yards) raced 78 yards on the

HUNT FOR RED NOVEMBER

Red Raiders hunger to beat C-G By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com

Lathan Goumas – lgoumas@shawmedia.com

Huntley football players laugh as they watch film from last week’s game during a team meeting Monday at Huntley High School. A highlight of the Monday meetings is the presentation of awards – candy bars – to players for such things as touchdowns, forced turnovers and key tackles.

HUNTLEY – Mike Naymola sat on a wooden table, making sure to keep the bags of miniature candy bars within reach. The candy bars are a Monday team meeting staple. The distribution formula is simple. Crunch bars for big hits. PayDays for touchdowns, forced turnovers and touchdown-saving tackles. By now, the awards ceremony has become one of the most anticipated parts of Huntley’s football work week. But as players settled in to begin preparing for defending FVC

Valley champion and Class 6A runner-up Cary-Grove, they did so knowing the challenge they face is as big as any this fall. Setting the right tone for the week was imperative. “Last year, we aspired to be a championship team,” Red Raiders coach John Hart told his team. “This year, we expect to be a championship team. They are a championship team.” The Trojans enter Friday’s game 0-2 after losses to two Class 7A state-ranked teams: No. 6 Wheaton North and No. 2 Lake Zurich.

Cary-Grove’s Lauren Betz and Rachel Langner won a set in their No. 3 doubles match before losing a close one, 3-6, 6-4, 5-7. McHenry 4, Grayslake Central 3: At McHenry, Brittany Goebel and Lauren Goebel won their No. 1 and No. 2 singles matches to lead the Warriors (3-3) to an FVC crossover win.

Cary-Grove’s Abby Schebel goes up to block a hit by Crystal Lake South’s Nicole Slimko on Thursday in Crystal Lake. South won in two games.

Gators overcome early C-G lead in 2nd game • VOLLEYBALL Continued from page C1 That kill started a stretch of three kills in four points for Schebel to make it 22-12, but the deficit was too much for the young Trojans to overcome. “We got caught in a rotation and were having a hard time siding out and they had a huge front line,” Trojans coach Patty Langanis said. “At times, you just need that pass so desperately bad and we just couldn’t shut down that serve.” South again made a statement in Game 2, outscoring the Trojans 11-7 after C-G tied the score at 14. The Trojans couldn’t build off a good start in the second game, which they opened with an 8-4 lead. The Gators’ tough serves often forced the Trojans’ offense to run out of system with off-target passes preventing them from get-

ting in a rhythm. “Again, it’s that aggressive weapon,” Gators coach Jorie Fontana said. “They’ve got the ability to hit hard serving and accurate. When I tell them to serve to this person or serve to this spot, they’re going to hit it, which is great.” With 5-foot-8 C-G blockers regularly going up against Nolan, Langanis said the strategy was to try and get touches on Nolan’s shots. Unfortunately for the Trojans, Nolan did a good job most of the match working around those blocks. The Gators represented a tough matchup, especially with hitters Avalon Nero (eight kills) and Nicole Slimko (four kills) also finding ways to beat C-G’s defense. “Cassy will look at me and she’ll be like, ‘Short blocker,’ and I’ll be like, ‘Oh yeah,’ ” Nolan said of taking advantage of shorter blockers. “ ... We focused on us a lot. We made them make errors.”

Red Raiders’ defense to face C-G’s tricky triple option • HUNTLEY Continued from page C1 Even with his team unbeaten after wins over Bartlett and most recently in a lopsided 48-16 victory over Elgin, Hart remained far from satisfied. Too much went wrong against Elgin by Hart’s estimation – especially defensively. Players were in the wrong gaps. They were undisciplined. They took improper angles, which led to too many big plays. If the mistakes continue against C-G, Hart warns, they will cost the Red Raiders a ballgame. To make matters more difficult, Huntley’s defense must contend with a C-G option offense filled with wrinkles more traditional offenses don’t include. So, like he often does, Hart turned to a boxing analogy. Hart contends there’s something to the notion that in football, as in life, players must learn to get punched in the mouth, get up and keep fighting. But this week, Hart realized, wouldn’t be like most scraps the Red Raiders will find themselves in this season. “If you’ve ever been in a fistfight, they’ve got an a left-handed offense and a left-handed defense,” Hart said. “It doesn’t make it great, but it makes it awkward.” Hart continued with the boxing theme, describing the fighting style of former world heavyweight champion Ken Norton, whose ring strategies – like the scheme the Red Raiders face Friday night – was unconventional. “Ken Norton was a really skilled fighter, but he was awkward,” Hart said. “So it made him kind of dangerous. And good. And that’s what they are. That’s a little bit of our challenge in front of us.” ••• Even with the tough week ahead, Hart made sure to stick to his normal Monday routine. The awards, voted on during Sunday coaching staff meetings, are given to the offensive, defensive, special teams and scout team players of the week. As Hart read off the week’s recipients, Naymola started firing the candy bars around the room, mocked

by heavy groans every time one of his throws missed its intended target. “He’s got the worst arm on the team,” Hart joked. The awards ceremony continued as Hart began reviewing a series of film clips, highlighting the scoring plays and big hits from the win over Elgin. “Dranka with the big hit,” Hart said as a clip of senior defensive end Brandon Dranka delivering a tackle is displayed on a large John Hart screen. “1-2-3.” As soon as Hart stopped counting, players responded with three quick claps. The highlight reel continued with a long Jake Scalise touchdown run and a downfield block by receiver Brandon Altergott. “Altergott pancakes his man, 1-2-3,” Hart screamed. Clap, clap, clap. The ceremony, like every other motivational tactic used by Hart, is by design. If the Red Raiders are going to be successful, Hart maintains, they have to enjoy the process. As hard as players will be pushed in the days leading up to Friday’s game, Hart makes sure part of the week isn’t as serious. The Crunch Bars and PayDay’s idea came from Tennessee coach Butch Jones, who used the sugary treats as a reward during a team meeting Hart sat in on when Jones was at Cincinnati. Hart uses the awards as a way of allowing players to enjoy the fun parts of the game often lost in the pursuit of Friday night success. “We coaches sometimes try to make it such a burden to play the game,” Hart said. “I guess I’ve always aspired to make it fun. When I think about work – if you enjoy what you’re doing – then it’s not work, it’s fun. So we celebrate the great plays kids make.” By meeting’s end, more than two dozen candy bars had been delivered. Dranka collected a personal-best 10. Senior safety Mike Andrews was a close second, evidenced by the pile of empty candy wrappers in front of him.

Like most of his teammates, Andrews considers the weekly awards ceremony incentive to give maximum effort, which in turn, inspires his teammates to follow his lead. But as enjoyable as the weekly award ceremony is, Andrews admits he was ready to get to work. Last year, C-G handled Huntley, 41-14. Andrews refers to the game as an embarrassment, and knew that the rest of the week had to be all business as preparations for the Trojans began in earnest. “This is probably going to be our most serious week of football,” he said. ••• The hard-nosed approach introduced Monday quickly carried over to Tuesday. As much as Hart preaches not looking back, he understands the taste last year’s loss to the Trojans left. After Saturday’s win over Elgin, Scalise said Hart made certain players weren’t looking past the Maroons and onto C-G. But hours after the win, Scalise’s backfield mate, Mitch Kawell, used his Twitter feed to convey a message all of his teammates had been feeling since the season began. “I honestly can’t wait to play Cary,” Kawell tweeted. “I think this game will prove who we are and how much we put in to this season.” Still, despite their 2-0 record, Hart’s players knew the effort against Elgin wasn’t nearly good enough. On Monday, Hart had told his team that he believed the Red Raiders are a better team than the Trojans. But that proclamation came with a major disclaimer. “They are a more disciplined team through two ballgames, and they seem to be a hungrier team through the first two ballgames,” Hart said. “That’s the challenge in front of us – to match that.” By Tuesday, some of the cracks were still visible. When running plays didn’t come together for the first-team offense as it ran against Huntley’s scout team defense, Scalise grew agitated. “Let’s go,” Scalise screamed. When players started to slow their

pace on a day when the afternoon temperatures reached the mid-90s, Hart quickly made sure conditions didn’t become an excuse “I can promise you right now, it’s just as hot over at Cary-Grove,” Hart barked. “Let’s pick it up.” Its a theme – 212 Degrees: The Next Step – Hart introduced in the offseason to encourage his players not to be satisfied. Last season’s effort in a 6-4 season is one Hart equates to hot water. But after two games – including a playoff-opening 10-9 loss to Fenwick – were decided by one point, Hart asked his team to ratchet up its play a level this year. “If you turn [hot water] up one degree to 212 degrees, my physics degree tells me that’s boiling,” Hart said. “Boiling causes steam and steam can move a locomotive. So that one degree goes from hot water, which is terrific, to boiling, which is a differencemaker.” The theme was one defensive backs coach Casey Popenfoose built on in Monday’s meeting with the defense. Even with last Saturday’s 32-point victory, Hart described the defensive effort as a “huge disappointment.” After noticing defensive players smiling during the film session at missed tackles, Hart chided them in the position meeting for being lazy – something he says that can’t be repeated Friday against the Trojans. So before he started mapping out the defensive game plan for C-G, Popenfoose made sure players understood what was at stake. He urged them to put last year behind them and to embrace the present. “This is a new football team, it’s a new mentality,” Popenfoose told players. “We’re taking the next step this Friday night. I think about everything we’ve worked toward in the off-season, every game is important – I’m not going to lie to you there. But when I see Cary-Grove on the schedule and it’s the first time we’re out there on a Friday night with the lights on us and it’s going to be packed, I think of now. I think of this week. “The next step is here. Be excited, get prepared and let’s dominate it.”

Temporary split: Evelyn Youel and Jillian Wallace played singles Saturday at the Downers Grove South Invitational. Splitting up doubles teams to play singles is a common practice, but for Youel and Wallace, now seniors, it marked the first time in their high school careers they had not been on the court together as partners. Wallace said singles was fun but a little weird not having Youel there. “Playing singles was different. We’d always look over at each other,” Wallace said. “We were lost without each other.” Youel said playing singles gave them both the opportunity to work on their baseline game and not have to share the workload. “We hit more balls and worked on our ground strokes [but] still came to the net and volleyed,” Youel said. For the record, both were 2-0 in singles and doubles, but no one expects either to stay at singles. It was simply about getting them out of their comfort zone and improving their games. “It’s good for us,” Wallace said. “Singles always betters our doubles play.” Tigers coach Katie Lashbrook is hoping some upcoming matches challenge her top doubles team. Central faces Carmel on Wednesday and just added Deerfield to the schedule for Sept. 30. The Tigers were able to add Deerfield because the Jacobs Invitational on Aug. 31 was canceled. Sectional shakeup: Area teams will be spread across four sectional tournaments Oct. 19, in assignments released this week by the IHSA. There were few surprises in the assignments, with McHenry being the lone exception. The Warriors will be the only area team at the Stevenson Sectional. Last year, McHenry was at the same sectional as Johnsburg, which is at Antioch this season. McHenry coach Kyle Funkhouser said he was surprised his team was sent to Stevenson just a year after being moved from Cary-Grove. The Warriors were at the Grayslake North Sectional last year and at C-G from 2007 to 2011. Funhouser said it’s tough not knowing where you will be in trying to set up matches with common sectional opponents. That and going to Stevenson, one of the top programs in the state. “You try to set up your schedule based on you sectional,” Funkhouser said. “[Stevenson’s] got to be close to the hardest sectional in the state.”

Skyhawks are all about family • MUSICK Continued from page C1 “But when coach is watching film, they sit intently and watch it with the boys. It’s kind of cool.” It’s really cool. Family is what happens when Madi distributes bracelets to all of her football player friends, such as quarterback Nick Brengman. In fact, Madi is so great at making bracelets that she also made one for Nick’s girlfriend. Brengman is beyond grateful for the support of his young fan club. That makes losses such as Thursday’s extra difficult to accept. “I feel like I’m playing not just for a team, but for a family,” Brengman said. “I feel like when we lose, it hurts all of us as much as it hurts coach and his family.” Family is what happens when Madi and Kaile sprint from the front row of the bleachers to give their dad a big hug after the game. Their dad, who played nose tackle at Illinois, smiled and scooped Kaile into his arms. Madi hugged his legs, which looked as if she were hugging a giant redwood. “She idolizes the cheerleaders, she loves being around the game, she loves the kids,” Mike Maloney said with a

Family is what happens when a group of football players, in the face of crushing disappointment, decide to come together rather than break apart. “Actually, our theme this week, we talked about unconditional love,” Maloney said. “It’s funny, a football coach talking about love. But we’ve battled through so much together that those guys are like my sons and vice versa. “I’m not trying to replace anybody, but we have a relationship and a bond that’s been battle tested through a lot of disappointment and loss. And I’ve got to ask them and expect them to get up tomorrow and prepare again. “Now, only somebody that is involved in a committed relationship could do something like that. Knowing that they gave everything they had and have thorough disappointment with the outcome, they’ve got to come back from that, and I’ve got to come back and work them in a position to compete again next week. “And they will. They will. Because they are a family.” • Northwest Herald sports columnist Tom Musick can be reached at tmusick@shawmedia.com and on Twitter @ tcmusick.

Grayslake North’s Merrick Gentile tries to break free from Woodstock’s Alan Hafer during the first quarter Thursday in Grayslake.

GRAYSLAKE NORTH 42, WOODSTOCK 14

Grayslake North runs past Streaks By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com GRAYSLAKE – The Woodstock football team and its coaching staff had a short week to prepare for Grayslake North and its high-powered offense before the two squads met Thursday night. Even though the Blue Streak coaches were accurately predicting the Knights’ offensive plays from the sideline, it mattered little as the Knights’ players found a hole on seemingly every play in the first three quarters en route to a 42-14 victory over visiting Woodstock. “The coaching staff did a great job of preparing our players this week,” Woodstock coach Steve Beard said after the loss. “It was a matter of fundamentals and key blocking mistakes that hurt us.” Grayslake North sophomore quarterback Merrick Gentile captained the effective read-option offense, which gashed the Blue Streaks (0-3) for 237 yards on the ground and five rushing touchdowns. Gentile was also able to find an open receiver when he was in trouble in the backfield and passed for 127 yards and a touchdown. The Knights (3-0) scored touchdowns on 6 of 9 offensive drives to open the game which spanned three quarters before taking their first-team offense off the field after a 42-0 lead. “I need to review the film, but we need to clean up a lot of mistakes,” Beard said. On offense, Woodstock failed to get into any sort of rhythm, which led to the defense being on

the field for the majority of the game. Beard said he is still doing some teaching at the quarterback position and has not committed to a starter. The coach started senior quarterback Alan Hafer but he split time with junior Jace Pohlman every other series. Both threw the ball more than 10 times but couldn’t find a rapport with the receivers until late in the fourth quarter. “Very much so,” said senior wideout Mitch Kohley when asked if catching passes from a different quarterback each series makes it tough to create a relationship on the field. Kohley finished with four catches for 43 yards, all coming in the second half. “I have a pretty good connection with Hafer, because he’s a senior and we’ve been able to play together a bit longer and when you see passes coming from different guys it’s like working on chemistry on the fly during game situations,” Kohley continued. Each quarterback led touchdown drives late in the fourth quarter as Hafer orchestrated a 75-yard touchdown drive that ended with running back Michael Santucci plunging in for a 1-yard score. The Pohlman-led offense drove 80 yards on the next series and was capped by a 1-yard touchdown pass to tight end Mason Sutter. Despite the late drives, Beard still wants to see both play more before he makes a decision on who will take over the offense. “Right now, we’re sticking with both,” he said. “They have both earned playing time.”

Brengman throws for 205 yards, completes 22 of 42 passes • FOOTBALL Continued from page C1 Linebacker Ben Stillwell recovered Kevin Kordik’s onside kick and Johnsburg was in business on the Rams’ 44yard line.

“I thought this could be the game,” said Brengman, who was 22 for 42 for 205 yards. “I thought this one could end the streak. When it was 28-14, I saw in my teammates’ eyes we could do this.” Even after a Brengman

pass was tipped and intercepted, the Skyhawks got one last chance on the fumbled snap. The Skyhawks appeared to have first-and-goal on Grayslake Central’s 4 when Brengman hit Brad Iverson on a fourth-down pass, but

they were called for holding. On the repeated fourth down play, Brengman was intercepted inside the 5 by Kacey Adams. Grayslake Central improved to 3-0, 1-0 in the FVC Fox.

“Being a Johnsburg football player is about being accountable and giving everything you got,” Maloney said. “All we have to do is learn how to win and compete at the high-stakes moments in the game.”

Cary-Grove scouting report Offense under the spotlight: The Trojans are 0-2 with losses to Wheaton North and Lake Zurich who are ranked No. 6 and No. 2, respectively, in Class 7A. Injuries to RBs Joe Scott and Zach McQuade make C-G thin at RB, and that is a concern for an option team. QB Jason Gregoire needs a big game, especially from a leadership standpoint. This will be a great opportunity for Trevor Ruhland, Michael Gomez and the rest of the offensive line to establish themselves as one of the best in the area against a tough Huntley defensive front. The Trojans are a running team and if they don’t do that well they don’t win. Defensive adjustments: The Trojans need a balanced approach to deal with the Red Raiders’ offense. Huntley will throw the ball, but their strength is still the running game. The Trojans’ quickness should help them against the Raiders’ speedy RBs. C-Gs defensive line could gain an advantage going against a fairly inexperienced Huntley offensive line. A lot of pressure falls on the defense to keep the score down and help out the offense. Getting pressure at the line of scrimmage and making some big plays early to get their confidence up would be huge. Huntley scouting report Offensive game plan: Huntley needs to be patient on offense and stick with their plan. They need to be somewhat balanced, but have had better luck running the ball than passing it. It is traditionally not easy to run on C-G, so the offensive line and RBs Mitch Kawell and Jake Scalise will need a big game. WR Josh Esikiel could provide a spark if they can get him the ball. QB Blake Jacobs needs to lead the offense and keep the mistakes to a minimum against an opportunistic defense. The Raiders scored 48 against an athletic but overmatched Elgin team last week. Defending their new house: It’s true that Huntley won’t see the type of athletes they saw at Elgin last week. They will see a disciplined and well-coached team that has made a habit of chewing up area defenses for almost a decade. But, if ever the time seemed right for the Raiders to stuff the Trojans, it would be now against a depleted group of RBs. Huntley knows it’s all about sticking with your assignments against the option, and that’s what they need to do to win. It will be worth the price of admission watching Huntley’s defensive line face off against C-G’s offensive line. Final word There should be a huge crowd at Huntley’s first night game on its new field (Week 1 was postponed to Saturday afternoon). Fans want to see if this is a shift in power in the FVC Valley Division from last season’s Class 6A state runner-up, C-G, to Huntley. Or, is all that talk a little premature? The Raiders want to take the Valley title, and they know it goes through C-G. The Trojans want to remain on top of the mountain, and they do not want to go 0-3. This game is a pick ’em. Les’ pick: Cary-Grove 14, Huntley 13 Les’ other picks Byron at Harvard: Harvard by 3 North Boone at Marengo: North Boone by 9 Richmond-Burton at GenoaKingston: R-B by 7 Hampshire at CL Central: CL Central by 6 CL South at Dundee-Crown: CL South by 3 Jacobs at Prairie Ridge: Prairie Ridge by 3 Woodstock North at McHenry: McHenry by 10 Marian Central at Guerin: Marian Central by 14 Chicago Hope at Alden-Hebron: Alden-Hebron by 4

BEARS NOTES

Bears won’t take Vikes’ DBs lightly By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@shawmedia.com LAKE FOREST – If the Bears’ offensive line can hold its own against Jared Allen, Brian Robison and the Vikings’ front, it will give Jay Cutler an opportunity to throw against a young Minnesota secondary. In a few years, the Vikings’ back end could look like the Bears’ group, but for now, it’s still a unit that allowed 357 passing yards last week and finished 24th against the pass last season. Starters Josh Robinson and Harrison Smith are in their second season and Xavier Rhodes, who comes on the field in the nickel, is a rookie, but the Bears aren’t looking past this unit. “They have skill in the back end. They have speed and they’ve made plays in the past,” said offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer, who also singled out cornerback Chris Cook’s physicality. Marc Trestman compared the Vikings’ Cover 2 defense to a look from the early 2000s, citing how physical the defensive backs are and their ability to defend the run. “From the sideline or from the casual observer, it almost looks like they’re playing man-to-man coverage in their Cover 2 as you come off the line of scrimmage,” he said. “They play their positions very well. They’re disciplined back there. We’ve got a lot of challenges. “They’re a good group and they’re going to just get better.”

MCC sweeps Oakton in women’s tennis Amber Fillmore won at No. 1 singles to lead McHenry County College to a 9-0 Illinois Skyway Collegiate Conference women’s tennis win against Oakton Community College on Thursday in Crystal Lake. Also for the Scots (2-3 overall, 1-1 ISCC), Lauren Edwards won at No. 2 singles and teamed with Fillmore to win at No. 1 doubles.

A Cover-2 scheme that relies on very physical corners – sound familiar? “It’s a very similar structure,” Trestman said about the Vikings’ scheme compared to what the Bears’ offense sees in practice against its own defense. “[There are] subtle differences in how they play certain techniques, but very similar structure.”

Logano defends spot in NASCAR’s Chase field

Protecting Jay, Week 2: New Bears left tackle Jermon Bushrod gets the task this week of blocking Allen, one of the game’s best pass rushers the past few seasons. “He’s a tough competitor. I’ve played him a few times and it’s no letdown every play,” Bushrod said. “He’s going to the ball hard every single play so I’ve got to be striking on all cylinders to get it done this week.” Cutler knows Allen can make a difference, but believes Bushrod can keep his blind side clean. “I’ve got all the confidence in Bush to block him one-onone,” he said. On the other side, rookie Jordan Mills will face Brian Robison, who Trestman said might be even more athletic than Allen. No Peppers, Tillman: Julius Peppers was sent home from practice with a fever. Trestman said Peppers will see the doctor, but that it’s “nothing serious there.” After being limited in practice with a knee injury Wednesday, Charles Tillman was absent Thursday. Trestman said it was not injuryrelated, but for a family matter, and Tillman will be back Friday.

Cutler focuses on 4 targets 1

One thing Bears fans long for is the ball being spread around in the passing game, but it didn’t happen Sunday. Jay Cutler’s 32 targets were aimed at just six receivers with four – Brandon Marshall, Martellus Bennett, Alshon Jeffery and Matt Forte – getting 30 of them. By comparison, Joe Flacco targeted nine receivers, Matt Ryan eight, Russell Wilson nine, Carson Palmer 10, Tony Romo eight, Robert Griffin III 10 and Philip Rivers eight during the NFL’s Week 1. Of Cutler’s 19 wide receiver targets, all but one were at Marshall and Jeffery with Earl Bennett getting the only other throw. Even more surprising than wideout Marquess Wilson being inactive for Cincinnati was James Brown not getting a uniform. But coach Marc Trestman explained, had Brown dressed ahead of Taylor Boggs, Matt Slauson would have had to back up Roberto Garza and a switch would have changed two positions, with Slauson moving over to center and Brown going to guard.

If you’re wondering why Joe Anderson dressed ahead of Wilson, even though Trestman has said Wilson is next up after Earl Bennett, Anderson is a factor on special teams and Wilson is not yet.

Offense yet to be unleashed It was the spring of 1959 when the Coasters released the first of their three Top 10 hits that year, “Charlie Brown.” By early summer, half of America sat waiting for the chorus every time the song played: “Why is everybody always pickin’ on me?” The song is still fun today and could quite possibly be the theme song for the Bears’ offense. This week it was Jamie Dukes, former offensive lineman with the Atlanta Falcons and current analyst with the NFL Network, who joined Mully and Hanley on 670 The Score after the Bengals game and suggested the Bears’ offense hasn’t really changed at all. Really? That’s not what everybody else has been saying. Let’s take a look. In 2012 under Lovie Smith and Mike Tice, the Bears averaged 23.4 points a game, 310.6 yards a game on offense, 123.1 rushing yards a game, 187.4 passing yards a game, 36.5 percent third-down efficiency and 5.2 yards a play. Against the Bengals, the Bears scored 24 points, produced 323 yards of offense, 81 yards on the ground, 242 through the air, converted 42.9 percent of the time on third down and averaged 5.3 yards a play. Hmm, could Dukes be on to something? Maybe. But if you understand that statistics can lie and know to look a little deeper, you can go all Lee Corso on Dukes with a “not so fast my friend.” Pull back the covers and you see that it appears a big part of coach Marc Trestman’s plan is success will breed more success, and he’s trying to get the fundamentals in place before he starts playing with the bells and whistles. The reality is that the Bears’ offense was different in the first half against Cincinnati than it was in the second. Asked what halftime adjustments he made, Trestman said none. He just wanted to “keep Jay clean” in the first half, in essence saying, “Let’s prove to ourselves we can block this, and then we’ll go for more.” In the second half, Trestman said he just started calling more of the plays in the game plan once he knew they could block them. The offense was actually worse than last year in the first half, producing just 92

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush yards, but much better than 2012 in the second half, churning out 231 yards. Jay Cutler was asked Thursday if he thinks the offense is restricted at this point. “Yes and no,” he said. “I think, at the end of the day, we want to make sure we protect and we’re able to get rid of the ball. We don’t want to take sacks. We want to keep the front five confident, keep me confident and believing in those guys. But, at the same time, we’ve got to play football. If that requires us taking a shot or getting five (receivers) out, that’s what we’ve got to do.” Which brings us to another point about where the offense is now and where it’s going. It’s hard to get five receivers out if you’ve only got three. That Marquess Wilson was inactive against the Bengals and Joe Anderson dressed but didn’t take a single snap on offense speaks volumes about where Trestman believes his receiving corps is. It’s not to say the kids can’t play, but apparently they’re not ready yet. So far, it appears offensive linemen Kyle Long and Jordan Mills are ready. But they’re not playing because they were so ready Trestman couldn’t keep them off the field, they’re playing because they have to. Anyone who suggests this offense isn’t dramatically different from what Bears fans are used to just isn’t paying attention to personnel groupings, playcalling and execution. This offense is already better than any the Bears have fielded in recent seasons and very different from what Mike Tice, Mike Martz and Ron Turner coached. But just how good will have to wait until it’s been fully taught, fully learned and until Trestman has all the bullets he needs to fully load his gun. I’m not a fan yet, I just know there’s still a lot we haven’t seen. • Hub Arkush covers the Bears for Shaw Media and HubArkush.com. Write to him at harkush@shawmedia.com.

PGA TOUR: BMW CHAMPIONSHIP

Snedeker goes lowest of low By HERB GOULD Chicago Sun-Times LAKE FOREST – The temperature was down. The wind was up. The scores were down. The crowd was up. And nobody enjoyed the first round of the BMW Championship at Conway Farms more than Brent Snedeker. Birdieing his fourth through 10th holes, the defending FedEx Cup champion fired an opening-round 63. That 8-under-par performance highlighted the birdie-fest that the PGA’s top 70 players put on for a sellout crowd estimated at 25,000. Less heat (a high of 81) and humidity replaced muggy, 90-degree practice rounds, making everyone feel better. “It was one of those days where everything seemed to go right in the middle of the round,” said Snedeker, 32, a former Vanderbilt standout who started his round on the 10th hole. “I made a great birdie from off the green on 13 that got everything moving in the right direction. “I hadn’t been playing the best, to say the least. To get on a roll like that is always welcoming.”

Although he has had his moments in majors the last couple of years, Snedeker hadn’t finished higher than 33rd in five tournaments since he won the Canadian Open in July. After missing the cut and tying for 47th in the first two FedEx Cup tournaments, he came to the BMW ninth in the standings. “My main goal was to be in the top five going into the FedEx Cup finale [in Atlanta next week],” Snedeker said. “That’s my goal this week, and I’ve done a great job of putting myself in position [to have] a chance to retain the Cup that I’ve cherished for a year.” With virtually the whole field firing at pins with wedges and short irons, the BMW is wide-open, though, to say the least. Predictions that the winning score will be around 18 to 20 under par seem accurate, but it’s still early. Twenty-eight of the 70 players finished the first round in red numbers. Zach Johnson (64) is one shot behind Snedeker. Tiger Woods, Steve Stricker, Charl Schwartzel and Kevin Streelman are three shots back. But Johnson cautioned that things could change. “If the wind stays this

potent and out of this direction,” Johnson said of a strong north wind that exerted its influence late in the day, “it’s not going to be that easy. But yeah, you’re going to see low numbers. That’s just the way this course sets up.” After making seven birdies and two bogeys in his opening round, Woods lamented missing too many opportunities. “I certainly wasted a lot of shots out there,” said Woods, who spoke sarcastically about parring all three par-5s. “I missed three short [putts] and played the par-5s stupendously. One of those days. I’m not exactly real happy. I played well; I just didn’t get much out of the round.” Stricker expects lower temperatures and higher winds to make scoring more difficult. “Everybody says the defense for this course is the wind,” Stricker said, “and I think we’re going to see that. I’m sure it’ll play more difficult.” • Herb Gould is a sports writer for the Chicago SunTimes who can be reached at hgould@suntimes.com.

CHICAGO – Joey Logano defended his place in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship on Thursday, rattling off his season statistics as proof he earned his spot in the 12-driver field regardless of any help he may have received in the deciding race. And make no mistake, Logano said: If anybody helped him at Richmond, he had no clue. The latest driver caught in the fallout of NASCAR’s investigation into Saturday night’s race at Richmond, Logano learned Wednesday that radio traffic appeared to show Front Row Racing’s crew chief and spotter talking about David Gilliland giving Logano a pivotal spot on the track in exchange for something unidentified from Penske Racing. There’s nothing in Penske radio transmissions to indicate wrongdoing, but NASCAR said Thursday it is still looking into the incident.

Vols coach says Couch ineligible against Oregon KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Tennessee coach Butch Jones said defensive lineman Maurice Couch has been ruled ineligible for Saturday’s game against No. 2 Oregon while the university investigates allegations he was one of five Southeastern Conference players to receive improper benefits. A Yahoo Sports report cited text messages and financial records of former Alabama defensive end Luther Davis, along with an unnamed NFL source who said Davis was a go-between for the players with NFL agents and financial advisers. Couch, a senior from Orlando, Fla., was the only active college player named in the report, which said Couch had received four payments totaling $1,350.

Armstrong returns Olympic bronze medal AUSTIN, Texas – Lance Armstrong has returned his Olympic bronze cycling medal, the latest fallout from his confession to using performance-enhancing drugs. Armstrong won the medal at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. The International Olympic Committee in January vacated the medal Armstrong won in the road time trial.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady shouts as he takes the field before Thursday night’s game against the New York Jets in Foxborough, Mass. The Patriots won, 13-10.

PATRIOTS 13, JETS 10

Brady, Patriots win ugly offensive game The ASSOCIATED PRESS FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – One picture-perfect pass started the New England Patriots toward an ugly win. Tom Brady threw a 39-yard touchdown to a wide-open Aaron Dobson on the game’s first series before both offenses played as sloppily as the second-half weather, and the Patriots got by the New York Jets, 13-10, on Thursday night. Brady had trouble connecting with his rookie-

filled receiving corps, while Jets rookie Geno Smith was sacked four times when he took too much time to find someone to throw to. The Patriots (2-0) managed only nine first downs after leading the NFL in points and yards last season. The Jets (1-1) cut the lead to 13-10 on Bilal Powell’s 3-yard touchdown run with 5:05 left in the third quarter. But Smith threw three interceptions in the fourth quarter.

ZURICH – The U.S. men’s soccer team climbed to 13th in the FIFA rankings, its highest position since July 2010. The Americans rose six places in the September rankings announced Thursday, which include Tuesday’s 2-0 win over Mexico that clinched the seventh straight World Cup berth for the U.S. The Americans had dropped to as low as 36th in July and August 2012.

Rain postpones Day 1 of Evian Championship EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France – The first day of play at the Evian Championship, the year’s fifth and final women’s golf major, was washed out Thursday after heavy morning rain soaked the newly designed course. Organizers decided to restart the round Friday with Thursday’s scores of the few who got on the course annulled. Top-ranked Inbee Park of South Korea, the defending champion, is looking to become the first professional golfer to win four majors in a year. – Staff, wire reports

“Getaway” 1/2 H

STARRING: Ethan Hawke, Selena Gomez, Jon Voight, Paul Freeman PLOT: Brent Magna must get behind the wheel and follow the orders of a mysterious man to save his kidnapped wife. RATED: PG-13 for intense action, violence and mayhem throughout, some rude gestures and language TIME: 1 hour, 30 minutes VERDICT: Liam Neeson has some atoning to do. Not because of his hell-bent pursuit of vengeance in “Taken” and its sequel, but for the lamentable cottage industry of cheap, imitation thrills those films hath wrought. “Taken” was by no means a groundbreaking achievement. But it was sturdy genre moviemaking, aided by the veteran weight of Neeson. “Getaway,” starring Ethan Hawke, is not that. Its chief tension derives from the question many moviegoers will ask, biting their nails: Is this the worst movie I’ve seen this year? Hawke plays former race car driver Brent Manga, a name that even a cartoon character would be ashamed of, and that translates literally as Brent Great. In our first introduction to Brent, he’s motoring furiously through a European capital in a manic car chase. It brings up an intriguing existential question: Is it still a car chase if we don’t yet know the fleer, the pursuer or particularly care about either of them? It’s an early hint of the overriding trouble with “Getaway”: It tries to put the throttle down before turning the key. We quickly learn Brent’s wife, presumably Mrs. Great, was taken in Sofia, Bulgaria. (The setting is arbitrary, except for its low production costs.) The kidnapper (Jon Voight, mostly only heard and seen as lips on the other end of a phone line) demands Brent drive around Sofia, careening through marketplaces and, under his specific directions, causing various havoc. Brent has little time to deliberate how this will save his wife, and the movie, too, makes scant effort to consider the harm he’s causing. Miraculously, he doesn’t run over anyone despite high-speed maneuvers that would realistically slaughter bystanders like bugs on a windshield. At some point, Selena Gomez gets in the car, first appearing to be a hoodie-clad carjacker, then revealed as another puppet in the mysterious scheme. Her entry to the film is as smooth as a pop star being shot out of a cannon. Cribbing from countless adrenaline-fueled concept films, from “Speed” to any Jason Statham movie you like, “Getaway” (not to be confused with the two “The Getaway” films based on Jim Thompson’s novel) tries to ride its thin concept, hoping the fumes of constant engine revving are intoxicating. Director Courtney Solomon splices together footage from cameras inside the car (from which the kidnapper eyes his pawns) and from exterior stuntmen-enabled wide shots. The action (all at nighttime) is messily and crudely filmed. The plot mechanics are often laughable. How, then, to explain the film’s sudden elegance in one (and only one) shot that appears toward the end of the film like a parting of the waters? Suddenly, the frantic cutting and the relentlessly grating score dissipate for a lengthy first-person perspective of a car speeding down a rolling, suburban road, gracefully sliding around traffic at dawn. It’s a diamond that can’t make up for the other 89 minutes of rough. – The Associated Press

RATINGS HHHH - Excellent HHH - Recommended HH - Not recommended H - Awful Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson PLOT: A look at Niall, Zayn, Liam, Louis and Harry’s meteoric rise to fame, from their humble hometown beginnings and competing on the “X-Factor,” to conquering the world and performing at London’s famed O2 Arena. RATED: PG for mild language TIME: 1 hour, 32 minutes VERDICT: Morgan Spurlock is one tricky guy. The documentarian best known for the eye-opening, award-winning “Super Size Me” now makes a persuasive case not for the dangers of fast food but for the dizzying virtues of a British boy band. And “One Direction: This Is Us” comes this close to convincing someone who routinely avoids the song “What Makes You Beautiful” at all costs that this quintet of skinny-jeaned heartthrobs has the coolest, cutest, nicest and most talented musicians in all the land. But I’m on to you, Spurlock. There are holes in your story about five lads who don’t appear to ever drink, smoke, fight, curse or partake in romantic dalliances of any kind. At least, not on screen. Of course, the movie is tailored specifically for One Direction’s uncontrollably ecstatic fan base of more than 14 million Twitter followers. That group consists mainly of tween girls, so a PG rating is a must, but Spurlock paints the band members – Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson – as superhuman, even as the guys humbly insist they’re just average blokes. The meteoric rise of One Direction is a compelling tale of chance. “X Factor” producer-turned-puppetmaster Simon Cowell recounts how, in 2010, he threw together five talented individual contestants on a whim. The newly formed group didn’t win the British incarnation of the show that season, but they garnered a massive fan base that propelled them to unfathomable stardom. They sold out their 2013 arena tour in minutes, according to the documentary. From there, the movie blends concert footage with backstage antics and the tomfoolery that accompanies bus rides and hotel stays. There are a few inspired additional interviews, including a neuroscientist who describes why One Direction fans lose control of their decibel level and tear ducts upon seeing the young men. The guys, who ranged in age from 19 to 21 during the filming, are portrayed as merry pranksters. They pull each other’s pants down on stage and dress in disguises to surprise fans; they make wheelies with golf carts and push each other around in trash bins. To add a bit of emotion, the film hears from the boys’ mothers (the mere sight of these women elicited emotional sighs during an

early screening) and follows the five as they take a break from touring to return home. But for the most part, the movie embraces harmless fun, which can be enjoyable for the audience members, whether they’re 1D fans or not. Most of the singers don’t mind their boy-band designation, but they insist they aren’t the typical commodity. For one thing, they can’t dance, although they faux-try with hilarious results. They also have a little edge, Malik says. They may sport visible tattoos, but watching the boys croon the chart-topping ballad “Little Things” makes that claim one of the more dubious. Some of the guys have made gossip rag headlines for their wild ways, including drunken behavior, but there’s no hint of that here. The absence of certain truths makes the movie feel more like marketing material for superheroes than a comprehensive documentary about human dimension. If One Direction fans end up having inordinately high standards when it comes to love, Spurlock is at least partly to blame. –

“Riddick” H1/2

STARRING: Vin Diesel, Karl Urban, Jordi Molla, Matt Nable, Katee Sackhoff PLOT: Left for dead on a sun-scorched planet, Riddick finds himself up against an alien race of predators. Activating an emergency beacon alerts two ships: one carrying a new breed of mercenary, the other captained by a man from Riddick’s past. RATED: R for strong violence, language and some sexual content/nudity TIME: 1 hour, 59 minutes VERDICT: By now, the saga of escaped convict and galactic outlaw Richard Riddick is a well-established sci-fi benchmark. As the substantial lore surrounding Riddick aspires to achieve mythic proportions, expectations also escalate, challenging successive releases to augment the gritty antihero’s legendary status. Succinctly titling the third film “Riddick” would seem to telegraph a determinative evolution of the ongoing narrative, rather than the largely episodic exercise franchise director David Twohy and star-producer Vin Diesel have delivered. Duped into relinquishing the crown of Lord Marshal of the Necromongers by his nemesis Vaako (Karl Urban), an entitlement hardwon in “The Chronicles of Riddick,” the notorious murderer Riddick (Diesel) ends up stranded on another blisteringly inhospitable planet instead of enjoying a return to his home world of Furya, as Vaako led him to expect. Fending off attacks by hyena-like wild canines and battling carnivorous amphibians reminiscent of giant scorpions, Riddick makes it out of the heat-blasted desert to the sanctuary of the adjacent high plains, where he finds refuge in an outpost set up by a network of galactic mercenaries. Relative safety turns out to be unrewarding, however, and with no other way to escape the inhospitable planet, Riddick activates the beacon device that alerts an extensive bounty-hunter network to his location. First to arrive from off-world are Santana (Jordi Molla) and his thuggish cohorts, who collectively possess more brawn than brains. Close behind, Boss Johns (Matt Nable) pilots a better-skilled crew that includes crack sniper Dahl (Katee Sackhoff), the only woman among the testosterone-fueled hunters. Riddick’s intention is to separate one of the spaceships from its crew and flee. Santana, however, is determined to sever Riddick’s head from his body so he can claim the bounty, particularly since it’s doubled if the fugitive is confirmed dead. Vastly outnum-

bered and out-armed, Riddick has only the weapons he’s improvised with – materials harvested from the local flora and fauna, along with a fierce native canine he’s managed to semi-domesticate – to fend off the mercenaries and make a break for freedom. Significantly dialing back on “Chronicles’ ” sprawling scale, the latest installment feels tentative even at a flabby 120 minutes, more like a placeholder that barely advances the considerable Riddick mythology. Playing it safe with a script that offers Riddick up as a lone avenging hero, Twohy passes on the opportunity to effectively shade the character’s distinctive dimensionality. Plenty of bone crunching and blood gushing, along with some selective nudity, have boosted the movie’s rating up to an “R,” but lacking the distinctive visual style, robust production design and planet-hopping pace of its predecessor, “Riddick” feels mired in stasis. While “Chronicles” was a full-blown space opera, the current iteration is beset by unremarkable CGI effects and tethered to limited locations. Twohy maintains skillful command of the franchise’s Frank Frazetta–inspired imagery and pulp sci-fi narrative template throughout, but it’s all more deliberate than imaginative. Inevitably setting up another sequel at the movie’s conclusion, Twohy begs the question of where a wanted man with a price on his head who’s exiled from his home planet can really run for sanctuary. Regardless, Riddick has little time or goodwill to waste if the franchise is to manage a satisfying, coherent conclusion. –

The Hollywood Reporter

“Populaire” HHH

STARRING: Romain Duris, Féodor Atkine, Déborah François PLOT: Set in 1958, Rose is a terrible secretary but a demon typist. Her handsome boss resolves to turn her into the fastest girl in the world. RATED: R for “a scene of sexuality” TIME: 1 hour, 51 minutes VERDICT: “Populaire” is a superbly crafted, finely acted but somewhat shallow retro rom-com about a young French secretary who, with the help of her highly persuasive boss, hammers her way to becoming one of the fastest typists on the planet. This impressive debut feature from writer-director Regis Roinsard is boosted by terrific lead turns from Romain Duris and Deborah Francois (“The Page Turner”), as well as some stunning old-school cinematography from Guillaume Schiffman of “The Artist.” Still, there’s something formulaic and all too overtly crowd-pleasing about this sepia-toned tale of female empowerment and lost love, making for a rather soulless affair. While the love story is meant to fuel much of the action, it’s often overshadowed by the thrill of the training sessions and typing competitions, which Roinsard films as if they were some kind of office combat sport. Cutting between the competing secretaries as they pound out keystrokes and slam back their typewriter carriages, the director and editors Laure Gardette and Sophie Reine endow these sequences with the nail-biting suspense of a finale at Roland Garros, making them the real highlights of the movie. But for all the earnestness with which the filmmakers replicate the muted colors and attitudes of the post-war era, they ultimately fail to say anything truly interesting about either the past or the present, resulting in a work that feels as superficial as it does slick. – The Hollywood

Avoid the salty food ‘top ten’ list Safe cycling practices get short shrift from bike riders Dear Abby: Now that California law prohibits drivers from using cellphones and texting while driving, an additional issue needs to be addressed and acted upon. Bicyclists are supposed to abide by the vehicle codes, too, but they rarely do – and that includes not wearing protective gear. I’m now seeing people on bikes texting, talking while riding and routinely ignoring stop signs. Disappointingly, I have never seen a single rider pulled over or ticketed for doing this. How many lives must be destroyed or lost before the police start enforcing penalties for the danger these people cause to others? – Caring Reader, Sacramento, Calif. Dear Caring Reader: You’re asking something I have been asking myself for some time. I understand teenagers may think they’re immortal as they whiz along the streets, but the adults I see weaving in and out and ignoring stop signs are old enough to know better. Many cities promote bicycling as a way to mitigate traffic congestion and encourage a healthier, more active lifestyle. Police may ignore the infractions because they have more serious crimes to attend to. Or perhaps they have been instructed to do so. (If members of law enforcement would like to address this, I’d love to hear from you.)

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips While I’m on the subject of cyclists, I should mention my own concern about riders who wear dark clothing and ride after dark. Not all neighborhoods are well lit, and I have seen near misses because of it. Although dark colors are fashionable, wouldn’t it make sense for people who ride at night to wear jackets with reversible linings in a lighter color? (I have seen a few with fluorescent trim, but there haven’t been many.) And if drivers are pulled over for broken or missing headlights or taillights, shouldn’t the same be true for bicyclists? Dear Abby: My son serves on a ship in the Navy in an area known for terrorism. People who know this tell me how safe his ship is, how strong the U.S. military is, etc. PLEASE, people, when I (or anyone else who has a family member in the military) ask for prayers or express concern, do NOT offer these platitudes. Understand our fears are real, and so are our tears. Offer a hug, a handsqueeze, say you will pray for us – but understand until our loved ones are back on U.S. soil, our fears and tension won’t lessen. Unless you have

been in our shoes, you can’t know how we feel when we watch the news because we have no true idea of what is going on. Our military family members can’t tell us, and often we have no (or limited) contact with them. I cry alone often. I am proud of my son for his service and even encouraged it, but this is a rough time for me and others who are in this situation. – Mili-

tary Mother Dear Military Mother: Thank you for writing. Many people are uncomfortable when they encounter an emotional situation and don’t know what to say. Their impulse is to “make it better,” not realizing sometimes a gesture is more eloquent than words can be. I agree with you when a loved one is in harm’s way, it is an emotional roller-coaster ride for all concerned – the parents, the siblings, the spouses and the children of our servicemen and -women. To My Jewish Readers: Tonight at sundown, Yom Kippur, our Day of Atonement begins. For observant Jewish people, this is a time to fast, to reflect, to pray and formally repent for any sins that might have been committed during the previous Hebrew year. To all of you, may your fast be an easy one.

Dear Dr. K: I’m trying to cut back on salt in my diet. Can you help me get started? Where does most of the salt in my diet come from? Dear Reader: You may be surprised to hear that, for most Americans, just 10 types of food deliver almost half of our daily sodium. Here’s the list: • breads and rolls • cold cuts/cured meats • pizza • poultry • soups • hamburgers and other sandwiches • cheese • pasta mixed dishes • meat mixed dishes • chips, pretzels and other savory snacks (For children ages 2 to 5, hot dogs and sausages come in at No. 3.) At first glance, it seems odd that breads and rolls top the list. After all, they aren’t nearly as salty as chips or cheese. But since we eat breads and rolls more often, the modest amounts of sodium they contain add up. The body needs some sodium to function, but too much sodium can increase blood pressure and make the kidneys work harder.

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff

High blood pressure is a leading cause of stroke, heart attack, heart failure, kidney disease and more. Americans take in an average of 3,266 milligrams of sodium a day, or about 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt. That’s well above the healthy target of 2,300 milligrams a day, or 1 teaspoon. And some authorities say the target of 2,300 milligrams a day is too high. For people at risk for heart disease, kidney disease and stroke, such as people with high blood pressure or diabetes, a target of 1,500 milligrams a day is better. As you cut down on salt in your diet, the first logical step is to limit or avoid the foods on the “top 10” list. Next, be mindful when you shop for groceries or eat in restaurants. The most sodium-heavy foods we eat tend to be processed foods. So minimize canned or prepared foods, as well as foods that are salted, smoked or cured, such as cold cuts, bacon and cheese.

You can always check the Nutrition Facts label on packaged food in supermarkets to see how much salt is in a prepared food. Be careful you determine what the Nutrition Facts label considers a “serving.” A can may say there are 500 milligrams of sodium in a “serving,” leading you to think that means 500 milligrams in the whole can. But most of the time, the can will contain several servings. This may seem like obvious advice, but I’m surprised by how many of my patients don’t look at the definition of “serving” that’s on the label. Replace processed foods with foods made from scratch. Eat more vegetables and fruits. Replace salt with herbs, spices and flavorings. When you eat out, if possible, ask that your food be made without salt. At chain restaurants, menus that list nutrition information can help you choose wisely.

Daly to join ‘Today’ in new role

William ends active military career

NBC says Carson Daly is joining the on-air team at the “Today” show. Daly will be host of the Orange Room, a digital studio that will be part of the show’s revamped Manhattan home, Studio 1A. He starts Monday with the introduction of the new set. As host of the Orange Room, Daly will bridge the “Today” show’s television and digital platforms. The network describes it as “the nexus point” between “Today” and its audience.

There will be no more perilous military helicopter missions for Prince William in the rugged mountainous terrain of northern Wales. With the military’s announcement Thursday he has completed the operational phase of his career, William looks free to spend more time with his wife, Kate, and their 2-monthold son, Prince George, while he takes on more royal engagements and charity roles.

Bon Jovi makes tour change

Santana, 4 others honored For Carlos Santana, music has always been a calling. He idolized his mariachi musician father as a boy in their remote hometown in Mexico and later grew up with the Woodstock generation after immigrating to San Francisco. Now the music legend will join the luminaries receiving this year’s highest national honors for influencing American culture through the arts. Santana is among five who will receive the Kennedy Center Honors. Fellow honorees announced Thursday include actress Shirley MacLaine and three standout musicians spanning rock, jazz and opera – Billy Joel, Herbie Hancock and Martina Arroyo. Top entertainers will salute them in a gala performance Dec. 8 to be broadcast Dec. 29 on CBS. Santana is unique among those who have received the cultural prize. He began learning English by watching American television from Tijuana, Mexico, and picked up the guitar after hearing blues and rock ‘n’ roll on the radio. In an interview, Santana, 66, said he was grateful to receive an award he remembers watching others receive almost every year on television with his family. “I guess people understand that Santana is not just a Mexican guitar player – I bring a collective-consciousness awareness agenda with me,” he said. “I grew up with the generation of Woodstock and Bob Marley, ‘One Love,’ and ‘Imagine,’ John Lennon. I am one of them, and we don’t do what we do to be commercial or to be popular or to be cute. It’s not entertainment or show business for us. For us, it’s a calling.”

Drummer Tico Torres’ emergency appendectomy in Mexico City has forced Bon Jovi to postpone concert dates. The band postponed Tuesday’s show in Mexico City after Torres checked into the American British Cowdary Hospital. Jon Bon Jovi says in a Facebook post the band is staying with Torres until he is released from the hospital. Bon Jovi apologized to fans who might have been inconvenienced or were traveling to the concerts in Mexico City, Santiago, Chile, and Buenos Aires, Argentina. The band’s website says concerts in those cities have been rescheduled for later this month.

Nicks, Lady Antebellum team up Lady Antebellum may be on hiatus, but fans are still getting a chance to see something new from the Nashville trio. Lady A will join Stevie Nicks on tonight’s episode of “CMT Crossroads,” the show that matches country stars with partners from different musical genres. “Performing with Stevie Nicks is by far the coolest thing we have ever done in our career,” Lady A’s Charles Kelley said. “I mean, it really was. We are actually going to have a little viewing party at my house that night because we’re just excited.” CMT recorded the performance last spring in Los Angeles before Lady A singer Hillary Scott gave birth to her first child this summer. The group has been on a break for two months and won’t return to the road till later this year.

SEDAN THAT’s NOTEWORTHY

Toyota Avalon adds fuel-thrifty hybrid By ANN M. JOB • The Associated Press

Move over, Toyota Camry. It’s time for Toyota’s other sizable sedan, the Avalon, to get some well-deserved attention. Recently revamped with a stylish body and new features, the five-door Avalon now also has an impressive, fuel-sipping, gasoline-electric hybrid model. •••

Not only does the Avalon Hybrid provide comfortable seating for five, with a roomy back seat, the new hybrid is rated by the federal government at 40 miles per gallon in city driving and 39 mpg on the highway – the best of any Avalon ever. These numbers are not unattainable. In regular, not-trying-to-squeeze-every-drop-of-gasoline driving, the test 2013 Avalon Hybrid registered no lower than 36.2 mpg and reached 37.1 mpg in combined city/highway travel. Also noteworthy: The 2013 Avalon overall is listed as a recommended buy of Consumer Reports magazine, which says predicted reliability should be above average. The Avalon Hybrid’s starting retail price isn’t as high as many consumers might assume, given all the standard equipment.

ABOVE: The 19-inch alloy wheels and performance tires are standard fare on the 2013 Lexus 600h. RIGHT: Two electric motor generators, in conjunction with a V-8 gasoline engine, develops 438 horsepower.

Castle on wheels Hybrid Lexus 600h L offers quiet luxury I

f, while on the road, you want isolation from the world, then the Lexus 600h L is for you. The sound barrier surrounding the cabin of this all-wheel-drive, four-door luxury sedan is superb. Inside, there are the comforts required of a luxury sedan, and that includes leather seats, velour trim, multiple power features and a sound system that includes a rear-seat entertainment apparatus. With the $7,335 executive package, someone sitting in the rear seat on the passenger side can recline and have his or her body massaged while viewing a movie. The massaging mechanism is part of the package. The 600h is the hybrid edition of the highest priced sedan in the Lexus lineup, the Lexus LS 460. At $119,910, the hybrid costs about $25,000 more than a loaded gasoline-only LS 460. Both are V-8s, and savings in mileage is negligible. Perhaps the hybrid gets one

REVIEWS Jerry Kuyper or two more miles per gallon of premium gasoline, but that will be dictated more by driving habits, weather and road conditions than by electronic-drive battery components. After a week in a recently tested 600h on interstates, county, city and state roadways, the hybrid averaged 21.2 miles per gallon with three persons on board. Besides the weight of occupants and 50 pounds of luggage, the hybrid also was pulling its weight of 5,203 pounds. One of the two electric motor-generators is primary and starts the engine. The other drives the rear wheels. Regenerative braking keeps the batteries charged. The conventional 5-liter V-8

FAST FACTS Vehicle: 2013 Lexus 600h L Type: hybrid allwheel-drive luxury full-size sedan Price: $119,910 Engine: 5-liter V-8 combined with electric motors, 438-horsepower Transmission: continuously variable Weight: 5,203 pounds Fuel tank: 22.2 gallons Fuel: premium Trunk: 10.1 cubic feet

engine produces 389 horsepower. When coupled to the battery pack, the horsepower increases to 438. The power is instantaneous and silent on the highway. A slight touch of the gas pedal sends this 5,203-pound castle on wheels quietly and quickly past slower vehicles. Compared with the LS 460, the 600h is, according to factory and media tests, a second faster from 0 to 60 mph. The hybrid, which has a continuously variable transmission, can do it in 5.6 seconds, according to Lexus officials. The L in the badging of the 600h L refers to length. This is the long 121.7-inch wheelbase version of the sedan. The short version is 116.9 inches. That means more leg room front and rear so, while watching the movie in a rear seat, one can really stretch out in comfort. That executive package, besides a massaging rear seat, included a leg rest, table trimmed in wood, a DVD entertainment system with

wireless headphones, 9-inch screen, automatic climate control with air purifier, a cooling box (for the water and sodas), power sunshades on door windows, heated and cooled rear seats with memory settings, rear side airbags ... and the list continues. With the package, though, the 600h is transformed from a five-passenger to a four-passenger luxury sedan as the rear center console is fixed. Even though leg room is expansive in front and rear, and there are battery packs to take up space, the trunk still has 13 cubic feet of storage room. Since it is relatively flat and square, lots of luggage can get stored here. In fact, during the test week, luggage for four for a two-night weekend outing fit in nicely. During the trip on backroads and highways, the electronic suspension, 19-inch tires mounted on alloy wheels, and the highly insulated cabin provided a quiet environment for chatting exchanges between front and rear seat occupants. This is a car designed for long, luxurious trips, and silence is absolute from the outset as there is no engine noise when

the sedan gets under way. The hybrid battery provides the initial thrust, and the silence continues when the V-8 takes over. The V-8, when partnered with the battery pack, is the equivalent of power provided by 12 cylinder sedans offered by competing luxury manufacturers. Safety features include traction and stability controls, antilock brakes, headrests complementing seat belts with pretensioners, blind spot monitoring cameras and smart stop technology (sensors help bring vehicle to a stop). Besides the Mark Levinson 450-watt, 18-speaker sound system, luxuries include power tilt and telescoping steering wheel and tilt and slide sunroof, headlamp washers, power rear window sunshade and front and rear parking sensors. For a full complement of inclusions, visit www.lexus.com. Warranty coverage is eight years or 100,000 miles on hybrid components and five years or 70,000 miles on the gasoline powertrain. The basic warranty is four years or 60,000 miles with 24-hour roadside assistance. First and second scheduled maintenance services are free. If an emergency breakdown, overnight lodging also is free, but there are limitations. Ask a dealer for details.

The 2014 Kia Sorento with an attractive new face has a more upscale interior, a more powerful V-6 and more available features and safety equipment than its predecessor.

’14 Kia Sorento all about ‘more’ By ANN M. JOB The Associated Press For 2014, Kia’s top-selling Sorento sport utility vehicle is all about “more.” The restyled Sorento with attractive new face has a more upscale interior, a more powerful V-6, a more comfortable ride and more available features and safety equipment than its predecessor. The 2014 Sorento also is one of the few crossover SUVs that lets buyers decide whether to add more seats, so Sorentos can be equipped with five or seven seats. In contrast, the Toyota RAV4 dropped its third-seat offering and now is sold solely with five seats, while Honda’s CR-V has never offered thirdrow seats. Buyers who need six or seven seats only intermittently will find the 2014 Sorento is nicely sized for this occasional use. At 15.4 feet long from bumper to bumper, the 2014 Sorento is like a slightly larger compact SUV or smaller mid-size SUV. It’s just 4.7 inches longer than the 2013

RAV4 and 6.3 inches longer than a 2014 CR-V. And it has the appealing ride of a crossover SUV that’s built on a carlike, rather than truck-based, platform. To add more ride refinement for 2014, Kia revamped the Sorento’s rear suspension and added strut tower bracing under the hood as well as a revised front suspension attached to a new subframe. Better yet, the Sorento comes with Kia’s generous warranty that includes 10-year/100,000-mile coverage of the powertrain and a full five years/60,000 miles of limited basic coverage plus roadside assistance. In contrast, the 2014 Honda CR-V has a limited basic warranty lasting three years or 36,000 miles and powertrain coverage for five years/60,000 miles. But the Sorento’s starting retail price for 2014 is a bit more, too. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, is $24,950 for the base, frontwheel drive 2014 Sorento LX with 191-horsepower, four-cyl-

inder engine and six-speed automatic transmission. This is $1,000 more than the starting retail price for a 2013 Sorento which had a lower-powered, 175-horsepower four cylinder that no longer is in the Sorento lineup. The price increase makes the base, 2014 Sorento LX pricier than the competing 2013 RAV4, which has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $24,160 for a front-wheel drive model with 176-horsepower four cylinder and six-speed automatic. The base 2014 Sorento LX also is pricier than the $23,775 starting retail price for the base, 2014 Honda CR-V with 185-horsepower four cylinder, five-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. In fact, prices for the upper level 2014 Sorentos reach into the $30,000s, and the new, topof-the-line Sorento SX-L has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $40,950. The SX-L includes all-wheel drive, the new 290-horsepower V-6, and luxury features such as leather-trimmed seats, panoramic sunroof, Xenon high-intensity

discharge headlamps, heated front and rear seats and heated steering wheel as well as navigation system, power liftgate, side blind-spot detection system and rearview camera. Too bad that a rearview camera is optional on the base, 2014 Sorento LX; it’s standard on upper trim levels. But both the 2014 CR-V and 2013 RAV4 have a rearview camera as standard equipment on all models. The lowest starting price for a 2014 Sorento with allwheel drive is $26,750, and this includes the four-cylinder engine. The V-6 is available on all trim levels and the lowest starting price for a 2014 Sorento with the new V-6 is $26,550. With 119,597 U.S. sales last year, the Sorento ranks as the top-selling Kia SUV and the second best-selling Kia vehicle overall in the United States, after the Kia Optima sedan. Buyers get a pleasant-looking SUV that sets riders up above the pavement for decent views out. But seat cushions also are positioned so most passengers can set themselves on the outer seats without having to

climb or scramble aboard. The test Sorento SX AWD included an impressive, new panoramic roof that made the interior feel open and airy. And the Sorento’s first two rows of seats, in particular, were comfortable and supportive. Since second-row seats slide forward and back on their tracks, it was easy to arrange legroom in these two rows to accommodate seat occupants. But two third-row seats are best for children and small-stature adults, as the seats rest close to the raised floor back there. A thoughtful touch: Kia adds rear air conditioning, with vents at the sides of the third-row seats, to every Sorento with third-row seats. This can help alleviate car sickness tendencies for these rearmost riders. The test vehicle had the 3.3-liter, double overhead cam, direct injection gasoline V-6 that was well-suited to most driving conditions. The only time the V-6 seemed taxed was in hard acceleration going uphill on a mountain road

when the Sorento carried five adults. Engine sounds were strong and confident, and most of the time, power came on smoothly. Shifts in the automatic transmission were noticeable at times, but even with uplevel, 19-inch tires, the test Sorento had less road noise than earlier Sorentos. The new interior has a well-arranged dashboard that doesn’t look cheap or weird, and fit and finish on the tester was excellent. The power liftgate is programmable now, and maximum cargo room is a competitive 72.5 cubic feet. Blind-spot monitoring is a new safety feature. But the Sorento has six air bags, less than the RAV4 has. Fuel economy was lackluster at 19.4 mpg in combined city/highway travel. This is less than the 21-mpg rating reported by the federal government for the V-6-powered, 2014 Sorento. Kia is part of the automaker that owns Hyundai, and the Sorento handily outsold its Hyundai sibling, the Santa Fe, last year in the United States.

Self-driving cars could be on U.S. roads by 2020 By DEE–ANN DURBIN The Associated Press DETROIT – Cars that drive themselves could be on U.S. roads by the end of this decade. But don’t take your foot off the pedal just yet. Automakers, universities and others are at various stages in the development of autonomous cars. Google is testing some in California. General Motors recently announced that its “Super Cruise” system, which uses radar and cameras to steer and stop a car, could be on Cadillacs by the end of this decade. And Nissan has boldly promised that it will have an autonomous driving system by 2020. “This is not a Star Wars technology. This is a technology that’s becoming more and more reliable,” Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn said earlier this year at the Detroit auto show. But there are still a host of issues to work through before there’s a driverless car in every driveway. State laws requiring a licensed driver at the wheel will have to change. Insurers will have to determine who’s at fault if a self-driving car crashes. Highways will need to accommodate cars with and without drivers. And auto companies will need to ensure that cars’ on-board computers can’t be hacked. In a recent report, consulting company Navigant Research estimated it will be at least 2035 before a majority of vehicles sold worldwide will be able to drive themselves. Navigant predicts that technology will come in bits and pieces – first self-parking cars, then systems to help drivers navigate traffic jams,

With this technology, drivers can multi-task behind the wheels of their own cars. then cars that can cruise by themselves on a highway – and will take some time to migrate from luxury cars to more mainstream brands. “The role of the driver of a vehicle will evolve to be more like that of a pilot in an aircraft,” the company said in its report. Autonomous cars are moving from pipe dream to reality thanks to rapid advances in technology. Lane-departure warning systems, for example, first appeared a decade ago. They typically used one camera, mounted on the windshield, to warn drivers if they swerved out of a lane. Newer systems are far more complex. Now, multiple cameras and radars can detect pedestrians

and avoid them by telling the car to apply the brakes. Some cameras can even read street signs. And some lane-departure systems not only warn the driver with a beep or a buzz but also gently nudge the steering wheel to make sure the car stays in the middle of its lane. The story is similar with adaptive cruise control, which first appeared in the mid-1990s. Back then, it could maintain a safe distance from a car directly in front of it at highway speeds. Now, more advanced adaptive cruise control systems can monitor cars in other lanes, work in slower, stop-and-go traffic and even apply the brakes and halt the car.

Satellite-based navigation systems have also become far more accurate in the last decade, which is key to developing self-driving cars. Some systems can already detect traffic jams and suggest alternate routes. Navigant predicts future systems will be able to give turn-by-turn directions to the car instead of the driver. Technology isn’t perfect. Amnon Shashua, the co-founder of Mobileye, a Dutch company that writes software for automotive cameras, says there are still some situations in which humans outperform computers. At a four-way stop, for example, a driver can crane his neck, scan for traffic in any direction and quickly determine the speed of any

oncoming vehicles. So far, cars can’t mimic that, Shashua said. But even as the research and development continues, some autonomous cars are already being tested. Last year, British auto supplier and engineering firm Ricardo successfully led an autonomous vehicle demonstration near Barcelona, Spain. One vehicle led four others – three Volvo cars and a truck – that drove themselves for more than 120 miles. The cars stayed 20 feet from each other and traveled at 53 miles per hour. Ricardo’s U.S. President Tom Apostolos says the company believes such platoons will be among the first applications of self-driving

technology. A farmer could drive a lead vehicle and run four self-driving combines behind, for example, or a logging company could run a convoy of trucks in a remote area. “I think it will be in a place where you have a safer, more controlled environment,” he said. Highway platooning could follow, but that is fraught with questions. Roy Goudy, a senior principal engineer at Nissan’s North American technical center, said autonomous cars can react much more quickly to potential hazards than cars being driven by people, so it would be difficult to have both on the road at the same time. “What are the rules in that environment, and what do we do to enforce those rules?” Goudy said. Good question. So far, the rules have yet to be established. Only three states – Nevada, Florida and California – and the District of Columbia have authorized testing of automated cars on their roads. Other states, including Michigan, could pass laws soon. The federal government hasn’t said when it might issue any regulations. Despite all the uncertainties surrounding autonomous cars, many agree on their benefits. David Strickland, head of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, says self-driving cars could potentially save thousands of lives, since human error is currently a factor in as many as 90 percent of traffic deaths. Driverless cars could bring order to clogged highways, reduce emissions by shortening travel times, and give more independence to the elderly and the disabled.

Interior was a nice surprise • AVALON Continued from page D1 Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, is $36,365 for the base, 2013 Avalon Hybrid, which is $3,360 more than the base, non-hybrid, 2013 Avalon. But note that the base Avalon Hybrid has XLE Premium trim that includes standard upscale appointments such as power moonroof, leather-trimmed seats, heated and power-adjustable front seats, rearview camera, dual-zone automatic climate control, eight-speaker audio system, 6.1-inch display screen, Bluetooth hands-free phone controls, push-button start, keyless remote entry and leather-wrapped steering wheel plus 10 airbags. Then, there’s the fuel mileage comparison. The non-hybrid, 2013 Avalon, which has a 268-horsepower V-6, is rated by the federal government at 21/31 mpg, which is 19 mpg less in city driving and 8 miles less per gallon in highway driving than the Avalon Hybrid. Still, the Avalon Hybrid is pricier than some other mid-size hybrid sedans that don’t have as much standard equipment and aren’t quite as large in size. As an example, the 2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid S has a starting MSRP, including destination charge of $26,995. This model does not have a moonroof or leather-covered seats or eight audio speakers, among other things. But the 2014 Fusion Hybrid does have a higher federal government fuel economy rating than the Avalon Hybrid does: 47 mpg in both city and highway travel. Meantime, the 2013 Kia Optima Hybrid, which is shorter in length and height than the Avalon Hybrid, has a starting retail price of $26,700 and federal government fuel economy rating of

36/40 mpg. U.S. Avalon sales this year through July were on the upswing by 134 percent, totaling 43,040. Camry sales so far this year were holding steady. The test Avalon Hybrid, a mid-range XLE Touring model, looked stylish with new, expressive grille and the kind of expressive body lines on the sides that could have come from a Hyundai Sonata. Overall, the car was attractively proportioned, too, though the sizable rear parcel shelf would sometimes catch and reflect the sun’s rays and detract from rearward visibility via the inside rearview mirror. A sunshine-splashed dashboard also sometimes made it difficult to see items shown on the sizable display screen atop the middle of the car’s dashboard. Still, the interior was a nice surprise, with controls and gauges well arranged and an expansive atmosphere in both front and back seats and a lot of seat travel available for the front seats. Stretching 16.2 feet in length, the Avalon Hybrid provides 42.1 inches of legroom in the front seat and 39.2 inches for back-seat passengers. This is more than that inside a Camry Hybrid, which is slightly smaller than an Avalon and uses much the same hybrid system. But room-wise, the Avalon Hybrid’s trunk, which provides a commendable 14 cubic feet of cargo space, is noteworthy. Yes, this is less than the non-hybrid Avalon’s 16-cubic-foot trunk. But hybrids have smaller trunks because the hybrid’s battery pack for storing electric power onboard typically is under and/or behind the back seats. So, the Avalon Hybrid’s flat-floored, 14 cubic feet is way more than the 10.8 cubic

feet in Optima Hybrid’s trunk and the 12 cubic feet in the Fusion Hybrid. Besides space and comfort, Toyota engineers made sure to make the Avalon’s ride firmer than before to provide a more dynamic driving experience, even in the hybrid. The test car didn’t handle like a wallowy, floating, big sedan. Rather, the driver felt a palpable connection to the road and body motions were more controlled than ever. The flipside of this more-taut ride is passengers can notice sounds and some vibrations from road bumps, including recessed manhole covers. And steering still felt a bit numb. Like its non-hybrid version, the Avalon Hybrid uses regular unleaded gasoline, and the travel range between fillups can be impressive. The tester, for example, had a 600-mile-plus range, which softened the $64 bill at the gasoline station. It’s true that the hybrid’s 156-horsepower, 2.5-liter, double overhead cam four cylinder can sound buzzy and stressed during hard accelerations. Torque peaks at 156 foot-pounds at 4,500 rpm, and with the two electric motors added in, total horsepower is 200. But nearly all the time during the test drive, driver and passengers couldn’t tell by sound or feel when power was all from the engine or all electric or a mix. Power came on smoothly and seamlessly and was managed by a continuously variable transmission that the driver operated like an automatic. What passengers did notice was how quiet the Avalon Hybrid could be in city traffic as silent electric power propelled it forward for short spurts. The battery pack is the older-generation nickel-metal hydride, not the new lithium ion that’s in the Fusion.

Truck refuses to start after lightning hits house I have a 2006 Ford F-150 XLT with a 4.6-liter engine. Recently, lightning hit my house and blew some appliances and the phone lines. Right after that, I went to my garage to back out my truck, and the battery was dead. I installed a new battery, and the truck cranked but would not start. Is it possible the lightning damaged my truck inside the garage? – P.D., email Lightning is unpredictable and powerful. It is possible your truck was affected. Contact your homeowner and auto insurance companies about the issue. File a claim with the appropriate company. Their investigation will determine what caused the trouble. More than likely, your truck will be examined by a technician. The outcome all depends upon their investigation into the truck’s condition.

I have a 2006 Saturn Vue with a 2.2-liter engine and 77,000 miles. A week ago, I broke the ignition key in the ignition switch. I tried to dig the nub out of the switch but failed. I went to my local repair shop, where they replaced the ignition lock. Two days after replacing the lock, other problems surfaced. The turn signals, power windows, power locks and air conditioner quit working. I checked all of the fuses, but they look fine. I’m about to return to my

DR. GIZMO Phil Arendt repair shop. Is this just coincidence or do these new problems have something to do with the new lock? Is the ignition switch bad? – M.G., email One problem could lead to another. It’s possible the new lock has a defect that is causing the new issues. The ignition lock and ignition switch are two different parts. The ignition lock turns the ignition switch to start the engine and power accessories. If the new lock is not functioning as designed, it can impair the operation of the switch. If this is verified, your shop will need to replace the lock again. This time the repair should be covered by a warranty.

Fluid is leaking from my 2003 Volkswagen Passat. It’s been leaking for a few days. It looks like oil. Over the weekend, I raised the front of the vehicle on ramps a friend loaned me. The oil looks like it is coming from the rear of the engine between the engine and transmission. Could this be caused by a bad oil pan gasket? Is it caused by a bad seal on the crankshaft? Is this something I can repair at home? – R.D.K., email This could be a big job that you might not want to

tackle. First, make sure the fluid is engine oil. It might be transmission fluid. Secondly, I don’t know which engine is in your vehicle. Depending upon the engine and configuration, you might have to drop the cradle the engine and transaxle rests upon. If so, it’s a big job that requires more equipment than you likely have at your home. Also, if the fluid is from the transmission, more than likely a seal at the torque converter or pump is leaking. To fix that type of problem, the unit has to be removed from the vehicle. More than likely, you are not equipped to handle that work. Before you make a decision on whether or not to tackle the task, please assess the situation carefully. Additionally, to determine which fluid is leaking, consider placing clean cardboard under the area of the leak. Once drips have formed, ask a technician to examine the cardboard. He or she should be able to determine whether the fluid is engine oil or transmission fluid. If you ask an experienced technician to examine the vehicle on a hoist, he should with a reasonable degree of certainty be able to identify the fluid, the source of the leak and provide an estimate to repair the condition. In the meantime, make sure fluids are maintained at the proper

level.

Recently, I bought a 2000 Ford Explorer XLT with 47,000 miles and a 4.0-liter engine. It’s in like-new condition inside and out. It runs great. Unfortunately, there is one problem. The driver’s door has a keypad that unlocks the vehicle. The previous owner said he forgot the code for the pad and after several tries gave up and used the remote key fob to unlock the doors. The doors lock and unlock fine with the key fob, but I would like to use the keypad on the door, too. How can I program the keypad? – B.R., email I’m not absolutely sure, but I believe the system is set up to disable the touchpad after seven or eight unsuccessful attempts to enter a vehicle owner’s preferred code. There is a specific procedure to reset the system, but you need to enter a factory code to program a code of your choice into the system. The permanent factory code is somewhere in the vehicle. For security reasons, I can’t divulge the location. Consider taking the vehicle to a Ford dealership for further assistance. Once the system is functioning, you should be able to program seat positions for specific drivers and more.

I’m pretty good when it comes to fixing my cars, but this problem has me a little

frustrated. The passenger power window in my 1993 Mazda MX-6 does not operate at all from the driver’s door switch. The driver’s window works fine. The passenger window goes down from the right door switch, but it won’t go back up. I used jumper wires on the motor, and the window goes up and down without any problems. I also replaced the driver’s master switch, but this did not cure the trouble. I’m having trouble finding a switch for the right door. Is there anything else that might cause the trouble or do you think the trouble is caused by a bad switch? – L.R.B., email Look on the bright side. At least with jumper wires you can close the window. That’s great because now you know the motor functions as designed and you can always leave the jumpers in position until you find a switch if indeed that is the trouble. Check for broken wiring inside the flexible conduit in front of the driver and passenger doors. Repair wires if needed. If the wiring in both conduits is OK, more than likely the trouble is in the passenger door switch. If you have a multi-meter, test the switch. If not, continue your search for a replacement switch and pray installation of a new part will cure the trouble.

A week ago, the automatic transmission in my 2004 Honda Accord with a 6-cylinder engine went bad. I had a shop install a transmission from a junk yard that supposedly came out of a running vehicle. Two days after the transmission was installed, I began to hear a bang sound when the transmission shifts gears. I returned to my shop, where they checked all the bolts on a converter and where the engine and transmission connect. They also drove the car and heard the noise. They suggest sending the transmission to another shop where it can be overhauled. Other than the noise, it seems to operate fine. Is there anything else that could cause the bang sound? – K.B., email While the noise might be from inside the transmission, it also might be caused by a misaligned, loose, broken or worn engine and transmission mount. Ask your shop technician to make sure the mounts are in proper alignment and in good condition. If they are OK, it’s time to send the transmission back to the salvage yard to exchange for another or have the present transmission overhauled.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Centegra Health System continued to build its Centegra Physicians Care unit with the purchase this week of another local medical practice. The Crystal Lake-based health system acquired Surgical Associates of Fox Valley, boosting its Centegra Physicians Care team to 151 providers at 13 locations. Surgical Associates of Fox Valley, located at 690 E. Terra Cotta Ave., Suite A, in Crystal Lake, will join the CPC unit Oct. 1. The practice specializes in vascular, bariatric, oncology and robotic surgery. Five surgeons from Surgical Associates of Fox Valley, and an additional surgeon that has yet to be hired, are set to join CPC. “[Surgical Associates of Fox Valley] are a highquality group, and their values match our values

in putting the patient first,” said Jason Sciarro, president and chief operating officer of Centegra Health System. “They have a great reputation for clinical quality and outcomes.” Before Wednesday, Centegra’s last medical practice acquisition came in December with the addition of Fox Valley Internal Medicine. Since then, more than 30 physicians have been hired to the CPC unit, Sciarro said. He declined to say how much Centegra has spent Jason on acquisitions for the unit. Sciarro “It is pretty rapid and exponential,” he said. “It’s large growth.” Sciarro said the county’s aging population and growth and health-care reform are factors that have led to Centegra’s expansion. He also said Centegra is looking to acquire more practices and doctors for CPC.

“The reimbursement model is changing,” Sciarro said. “What matters are outcomes of care, not volume of care. That’s a paradigm shift. “More eyes are on outcomes and quality than there’s ever been, and that’s been a positive through health reform.” Dr. Richard Lind of Surgical Associates of Fox Valley said that the practice’s close relationship with Centegra, combined with the changes to the health-care system, made the partnership a good fit. “As health care is changing, everyone is going to have a different relationship with hospitals,” Lind said. “Physicians are going to be increasingly more and more aligned with a health-care system, so some kind of collaboration made sense.” The practice will be renamed Centegra Physician Care-Surgical Associates, and people can call the office at 815-455-2752 to schedule future appointments.

Foreclosure activity falls 62 percent in county

FROM PUBLIC TO PRIVATE

Vince Dungan gives two thumbs down as he and his wife, Karen Dungan, leave the Dell shareholders meeting Thursday at Dell headquarters in Round Rock, Texas. The majority of Dell shareholders voted in favor of a $24.8 billion buyout offer led by company founder and CEO Michael Dell.

Dell shareholders approve $24.8B buyout Computer company going private in turnaround By BREE FOWLER and PAUL WEBER The Associated Press ROUND ROCK, Texas – Dell Inc. will end its quarter-century history as a publicly traded company and try to engineer a turnaround away from the prying eyes of Wall Street after shareholders’ approval Thursday of a $24.8 billion buyout offer from the company’s founder. At the end of a shareholders meeting Thursday, Dell officials said that based on preliminary results, there were enough votes in favor of CEO Michael Dell’s buyout proposal. The company did not immediately announce the tally. “This is a great outcome for our customers and our company,” Michael Dell said in a conference call with investors. Like other PC makers, Dell Inc. has been hit hard in recent years as consumers shift their buying habits away from traditional desktops and laptops and toward tablets and other mobile devices. Michael Dell said the buyout marks the first step in a multiyear transformation that will involve Dell Inc. going back to its roots and focusing on the “entrepreneurial spirit” that the company was originally built on. Dell started selling PCs out of his dorm room while he was still a freshman at the University of Texas. His company went public four years later.

A Round Rock, Texas, police officer guards the Dell shareholders meeting Thursday at Dell headquarters. As a private company, Dell will have the flexibility it needs to make investments it needs to without the limitations and scrutiny that come with being a public company, he said. Last month, Dell reported a 72 percent drop in profit for its most recent quarter, as the company cut prices to shore up computer sales. Dell’s stock has plunged by more than 40 percent since Michael Dell returned for a second stint as CEO in 2007. In afternoon trading Thursday, Dell shares were unchanged at $13.85. Michael Dell, who made his offer with an investment group led by Silver Lake Partners, maintains that turning around the company will in-

volve a painful realignment that is likely to trim its earnings for another year or two. As a result, he believes, the turnaround will be easier to pull off away from Wall Street and its fixation on short-term results. Michael Dell was present for Thursday’s meeting, which lasted about 15 minutes. About 100 people were in attendance, though few appeared to be rank-and-file shareholders. The meeting ended with light applause after the approval was announced. The deal is expected to be completed before the current quarter ends Nov. 1. The company will continue to be based in Round Rock, Texas. Critics of the offer said it undervalued the company. The vote was delayed three times as a result of the opposition. Before the last delay, Michael Dell and Silver Lake agreed to pay a special dividend of 13 cents per share to supplement a bid that had already been raised from $13.65 per share to $13.75 per share. Despite the enhanced offer, activist investor Carl Icahn and investment fund Southeastern Asset Management continued to contend that the company was worth more than what was being offered. Icahn dropped his opposition Monday, saying that while he still opposed the sale, it would be “almost impossible” to defeat the offer in Thursday’s vote.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The number of McHenry County homes entering the foreclosure process fell 62 percent in August to 266 homes, down from 695 homes in August 2012, foreclosure listing firm RealtyTrac Inc. reported Thursday. Foreclosure activity in the county fell nearly 14 percent from July, when 308 homes entered some stage of the foreclosure process. RealtyTrac found the median sales price of a foreclosure home was $120,000 in July, or 32 percent lower than the median sales price of $177,500 for a nondistressed home during the same month. In McHenry County, one in every 460 housing units was in some stage of the foreclosure process. The towns with highest rates of foreclosure last month were Wonder Lake, with one in every 254; Ringwood, with one in every 340; Lake in the Hills, with one in every 349; McHenry, with one in every 363; and Richmond, with one in every 378. In Kane County, there were 333 foreclosure starts, down nearly 79 percent from 1,555 a year ago. In Lake County, there were 330 foreclosure starts in August, off 78 percent from 1,501 in August 2012. Statewide, home foreclosure activity fell 6 percent in August compared with July, and has fallen almost 60 percent in the past year. The RealtyTrac report shows Illinois with 7,289 foreclosure filings in August. That represents a rate of one in every 725 housing units – the eighth-highest in the nation. Filings include default notices, auction-sale notices and bank repossessions. Nationally, lenders initiated foreclosure action in August against the fewest U.S. homes for any month in nearly eight years, a trend that should help reduce the number of homes lost to foreclosure in the months ahead. Some 55,775 homes entered the foreclosure process last month, a decline of 8 percent from July and down 44 percent from August last year, according to RealtyTrac. The national slowdown in foreclosure starts reflects an improving housing market, steady job growth and fewer troubled loans dating back to the pre-housing bubble days. Although the risk of foreclosure remains elevated in several states, including Florida, Nevada and Ohio, the pace of homes starting on the foreclosure path has been declining nationally in concert with the housing market rebound.

Whenever you use your web browser, you run the risk of virus infection and data theft. Even legitimate sites can harbor hidden dangers. Here are some simple steps you can take to protect yourself and your computer:

Keep your software updated People often skip software updates, but they’re critical to maintaining your computer’s health. If you don’t install them, you run a much greater risk of infection. Your system software and antivirus are not the only programs that require updates; viruses frequently sneak onto your computer through old versions of Adobe Reader, Flash and Microsoft Office.

Businesses wanted for Truck or Treat CRYSTAL LAKE – The Crystal Lake Park District will host Truck or Treat at Crystal Lake Main Beach from 10 a.m. to noon Oct. 19. Truck or Treat is a free event that is open to children and their families. Children dressed in Halloween costumes will have the opportunity to trick-or-treat for candy and prizes from truck to truck at the event. The park district is asking for help from local businesses and organizations who have vehicles to display. Vehicles may include (but are not limited to) large trucks, tractors or any other type of vehicle or piece of equipment suitable for display. It is a plus if the vehicle or equipment is available for the children to sit in, but that is not a requirement of the display. All vehicles/equipment need to be at Main Beach for setup between 8:30 and 9 a.m. Oct. 19. There is no fee to participate, but businesses will need to bring their own candy or prizes to hand out. Businesses or organizations interested in setting up a truck or equipment display should contact Connie Cooke at 815459-0680, ext. 213, or email ccooke@crystallakeparks.org.

While your kids aren’t necessarily doing anything wrong, sites geared for them often are riddled with malware. If you use your computer’s parental control features to prevent your kids from accessing sites you don’t want them to visit, you also will help keep viruses at bay.

It’s a good idea to keep your general surfing and social media use separate from your banking and email. Some Web browsers offer a “sandboxing” capability that opens sites in an isolated environment. You can accomplish something similar by using one web browser for surfing and a different one for banking. Options include Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera.

Continued from page E1 At their current pace, RealtyTrac expects monthly foreclosure starts to fall to around 52,000 a month early next year. That’s the pace the company considers normal. “We’re not quite there, but almost there,” said Daren Blomquist, a vice president at RealtyTrac. Foreclosure starts fell on an annual basis last month in 38 states, including Colorado, Arizona, Washington and California. They increased on a monthly basis in 17 states, including Nevada, Ohio and New York, the firm said. All told, foreclosure starts have declined on an annual basis the past 13 months, aided by rising home values, which make it easier for homeowners who may have been in negative equity, or owed more than their home was worth, to refinance or sell their home. Some 7.1 million homes, or 14.5 percent of all U.S. homes with a mortgage, were in negative equity at the end of the second quarter, according to data provider CoreLogic. That’s down from 9.6 million, or 19.7 percent of homes with a mortgage, in the previous three months. Through the first half of this year, nearly 3.5 million homeowners have returned to positive equity, CoreLogic said. While fewer homes are entering the foreclosure process, lenders have stepped up home repossessions in recent months. Completed foreclosures rose 6 percent last month versus July, the third monthly increase in four months.

Much of the increase came about in states where courts oversee the foreclosure process. Those courts were backed up with cases two years ago, but have been making progress working through their backlog. The number of homes taken back by banks last month climbed on an annual basis in 23 states, including New York, Florida and New Jersey, but was down 25 percent nationally, RealtyTrac said. As Aug. 31, there were about 1.3 million homes in some stage of foreclosure or owned by banks, down about 5 percent from a year earlier. Completed foreclosures are now on track to finish the year at 490,000, down about 26 percent from 2012’s total, Blomquist said. Foreclosures peaked in 2010 at 1.05 million and have been declining ever since. The trend has been accelerating as U.S. home prices have increased and the job market has improved. Blomquist expects foreclosures nationally will reach a normal level around the first quarter of 2015. It could take a bit longer in states such as Nevada, which topped the nation last month with a foreclosure rate of more than two and a half times the national average. RealtyTrac measures foreclosure rate by tallying the number of homes that receive a foreclosure-related filing, such as an initial default notices or a notice of scheduled auction. Florida clocked in last month with the second-highest foreclosure rate in the nation. • The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Computer upgrades cut jobless claims By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits plummeted last week 31,000 to a seasonally adjusted 292,000. But the drop was mostly because of technical issues in two states that delayed the processing of applications. The Labor Department said Thursday that the less volatile four-week average fell to 321,250, the lowest in six years. A government spokesman said the steep drop occurred because two states upgraded their computer systems last week and did not process all their applications. The spokesman would not identify the states, but said one was small and one large. Big states such as California and Texas can swing the weekly data by 10,000 or more. Applications will likely rebound in the coming weeks, the spokesman said. The broader trend in unemployment benefit applications has been favorable. Before

the glitch, applications had dropped 7 percent in the previous three months. However, the decline in jobless claims has not been followed by rapid hiring. “It’s hard to believe that claims can keep declining indefinitely without a commensurate pickup in job growth,” said Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at BTIG. “Then again, that’s exactly what they have done.” Applications are a proxy for layoffs. Layoffs have been falling since 2009, and in July reached the lowest level on records dating to 2000, according to a separate government report released this week. But unemployment remains painfully high at 7.3 percent more than four years after the Great Recession ended. And the economy grew at a modest 2.5 percent annual rate in the April-June quarter. That’s made the unemployment applications data less reliable for predicting job growth than in past recoveries.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

Vinoba Bhave, an Indian advocate for human rights who died in 1982, said, “Innumerable actions are going on through us all the time. If we started counting them, we should never come to an end.” Luckily, it is not that tough at the bridge table. But the more counting you do, the better you will play. In today’s deal, South is in four hearts. West leads the diamond king. East overtakes with his ace and returns a diamond. West wins with his jack and cashes the diamond queen, East discarding the club two. Now West shifts to a deceptive spade nine. How should declarer continue? Note South’s balancing jump overcall. This is no longer weak, as it would have been in the second seat. It is intermediate, showing a respectable six- or seven-card suit and some 14-16 high-card points. The hand will typically contain seven playing tricks (winners). South has lost three tricks, his book. He must play the trump suit without loss. In normal circumstances, he would inesse through East. But whenever an opponent

opens the bidding and you buy the contract, always count up the high-card points. Here, North and South have a combined 24 points. East has already produced four, the diamond ace. That leaves at most 12 for West, yet he opened the bidding. He must have the heart king. (Alternatively, if East had had that king, he would have had seven points and would not have passed over his partner’s opening bid.) So declarer should win trick four and play a heart to his ace. When the king luckily drops, South can claim.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Monitor what’s going on in your personal life, but don’t make hasty decisions that could affect your personal finances in the year ahead. The experience you gain by getting involved in organizations you believe in or with people who share your concerns will pay off. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Travel plans will lift your spirits. Even if you take a short trip or sign up for an evening of fun and games, it will do much to enliven your day. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Emotional involvements will escalate if you don’t take care of them. Walk away from anyone who’s too demanding or not looking out for your best interest. Don’t be afraid to do your own thing. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Put some creative thought into your home and family life. Consider changes that will encourage you to be more innovative and adventurous. Personal improvements will build confidence. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Do what you can to help others, but don’t make any financial contributions. Offer suggestions, hands-on help or even a shoulder to cry on, but nothing more. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Mix business with pleasure and you will make new friends and improve your reputation. Include someone you are involved with personally, or you may face a dilemma at home. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You’ll come up with interesting ideas, but not everyone will share your vision. Don’t invest in a scheme if it’s too ahead of its time; it’ll keep. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you devote some time to a physical improvement regimen, you’ll be pleased by the results. You’ll have a whole new sense of confidence, which could lead to romance. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Take on a physical challenge today. Size up an emotional situation and defuse it before it’s too late, or prepare to walk away for good. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Put relationships and your future intentions in the spotlight, and discuss your plans with the people who count. A face-to-face encounter will help settle matters quickly. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You’ll have some good ideas, but not everyone will be prepared to receive them. Prepare to do the legwork and clear up any weak links before presenting your plans. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Take some time to hang out with someone you find intriguing. Express your thoughts and make long-term plans that will ensure your security. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Bring about certain changes that will make you happy. You won’t please everyone, but you will at least know where you stand and how you can and should proceed. It’s a good time to begin afresh.
