Grain elevator Frankfort

NEWSROOM 815-280-4100 Fax: 815-729-2019 news@theherald-news.com

Grain elevator systems evolved and became an important part of Chicago’s growth in the 19th century.

Soon, these grain elevators began to be constructed alongside the developing railroad systems. As the railroads expanded throughout the Midwest, farmers were able to get their crops from the prairies to the marketplace more quickly and efficiently.

These early elevators often were associated with the floor mills they served. The structures usually were timber-framed structures, as were the mills themselves. It was not until the early decades of the 20th century that concrete grail elevators and silos, usually constructed in banks of two or more, started to appear.

The first grain bought in the Frankfort area was by Norman A. Carpenter, who bought for J. L. Hurd & Company of Detroit.

Together, they built the first grain elevator in 1856 near the Michigan Central Railroad tracks (known as the Old Plank Road Trail today). Numerous times over the years, the wooden grain elevator caught fire, and in the 1940s, the entire structure was rebuilt using concrete. While the grain elevator operated until 1973, actual business began to diminish in the 1960s, as the farm trade brought by the railroads began to decrease. As part of a project to rejuvenate the downtown area, the old grain elevator was remodeled and converted into a specialty mall for shoppers.

Today, the grain elevator still stands 132 feet high and can be seen from miles around. The then photograph shows the area around the old granary and the Scale House. The now image shows a similar view today.

‘All My Children’ star gives back to community with performances, education

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – To be or not to be?

That was not the only question Karen Perez faced while rehearsing her role as Hamlet for an all-female performance of Shakespeare’s tragedy.

“What’s your moment-before here?” actor Walt Willey said to Perez, a Joliet Central High School senior. “You’re probably getting pretty tired of hearing moment-before.

But it’s important.”

“I’m really depressed,” Perez replied.

“I don’t know if you’re depressed,” Willey said. “But you are in despair. Depressed is not a very active word. Despair is.”

Pointing out that Hamlet is called “the melancholy prince,” Willey advised Perez to explore the meaning of “melancholy” to understand the character more deeply.

“Of all the royals dealt with

by Shakespeare, Hamlet is probably the least confident,” Willey said.

SOAP OPERAS AND THE OLD WEST

Willey’s biggest acting success came as the character Jackson Montgomery in the soap opera, “All My Children.”

He was easily recognized by the women who made Willey show his identification card before walking through the metal detectors just like everyone else as he arrived at Joliet Central last week. Then, they insisted on taking pictures with him.

Observers of Willey working with high school students might gain a new appreciation for how much experience and knowledge of theater an actor might have before appearing in soaps – even one such as “All My Children,” which had a 41-year run before the final episode in 2011.

“My mom adores him,”

LEFT: Willey (right) watches as Joliet Central freshmen drama students Katie Lugo, 14, and Karolina Pawlica, 15, practice lines during class Wednesday.

said Infinity Frazier, a senior at Joliet Central, who performed a scene from Shakespeare’s “Richard III” for Willey. “She was like, ‘I love him.

I used to watch him in “All My Children.” ” Willey worked with Joliet Central and Joliet West students as part of an in-school program he does with high

schools before doing the oneman show called “Wild Bill!

An Evening with James Butler Hickok.”

‘WILD BILL!’ IN JOLIET

The show, which will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday at Joliet West High School, explores the life and times of

Wild Bill Hickok, the Old West legend who grew up in Troy Grove, not far from Willey’s hometown of Ottawa.

Willey has done the show at 20 high schools since 2012, sharing his time and a portion of the proceeds with school theater departments. The Joliet high schools will get 20 percent of the proceeds from the two shows.

Before his public performance, Willey will do a “Wild Bill!” show for students. Hickok is not the familiar figure to today’s students that he was when Willey was growing up and Westerns were a TV staple. But students get interested in the man who was a spy

for the Union army during the Civil War before going West, where his legend grew as a scout, gambler and gunfighter.

“When I do it for the students, I’m always amazed at the questions afterward. They want to know more,” Willey said.

Then, he said, “I’m always surprised when I don’t just get questions about ‘All My Children.’ ”

HIGH SCHOOL THEATER

Willey appears to enjoy what he’s doing.

City sees Saddle Creek plant tax cut as good deal

Local school officials not sure on social media password requests

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Some local school leaders are not sure if they’ll make requests allowed under an Illinois law to receive social media passwords from students suspected of breaking disciplinary rules.

A 2014 state law allows elementary and secondary schools to request passwords or other information needed to access student’s social networking accounts if they are suspected of violating disciplinary rules. Schools would need reasonable cause to make a request.

Schools are required to notify students, as well as parents or guardians, of the law.

Joliet and Plainfield school officials said no parents have come forward with concerns about the law after notifying them. An Illinois Principals Association legal expert said the law – while well-intentioned – is an invasion of privacy and should be used with absolute caution.

ALTERNATIVE MEANS

Tom Hernandez, Plainfield School District 202 spokesman, said he doesn’t

foresee the school district requesting social media passwords from students.

“We will do what we need to do to maintain a safe learning environment free of distraction for our students. …

If we need to take it a step further, we will do what is appropriate within the law,” he said.

Plainfield school officials have policies already in place that make students accountable for their social media activity. School officials try to crack down on cyberbullying and online threats, he said.

“We’ve had those kind of situations and we have responded in that regard and we’ve had kids suspended and even expelled on things that have happened on social media. That’s not new,” he said.

The law hasn’t been used by Joliet Public Schools District 86 since it was passed, said Nick Sakellariou, the district’s chief legal counsel. He said school officials would need to determine student on-campus and off-campus misconduct before making such a request.

In the past, if a disruptive activity, such as a fight, occurred off-campus, that would not be cause for disciplinary action by schools, he said.

“If that activity then spills into the classroom and come Monday, these same kids are being disruptive, well then, you have some authority to impose discipline. In the cyberworld, I think the same thing is true,” Sakellariou said.

WORRY OVER RIGHTS

The law’s opponents say it is intrusive and a violation of people’s First Amendment rights, Sakellariou said.

He thought it could be possible some schools might get caught in constitutional litigation if people believed they went too far requesting student social media passwords.

That concern is shared by Brian Schwartz, Illinois Principals Association associate director and general counsel.

He said the law is well-intentioned and puts parameters on a schools’ authority to make requests. But the association has told school officials that authority should not be used in most circumstances, he said. In most cases, it would be an invasion of privacy.

“I think the message has been heard and I think school officials realize there are better ways to get information they need,” he said.

JOLIET – City officials said they had something to gain and little to lose when approving a tax incentive for a proposed Saddle Creek Logistics plant last week.

Saddle Creek is reportedly looking at Joliet and other “It’s a sites as it plans to move out of its Elno-brainer. I wood location to a think this is bigger facility.

“It’s a no-braina very, very er,” Councilman Larry Hug said of wise move.” the property tax Larry Hug abatement package the city has Joliet councilman offered Saddle Creek. “I think this is a very, very wise move.”

Saddle Creek would employ 200 people at a plant that would conduct light assembly of off-road recreational vehicles and package beverages.

Mayor Tom Giarrante said most of the Saddle Creek jobs would start at $10 an hour, going as high as $13.50 an hour.

Giarrante also said Saddle Creek is not likely to add to congestion on Route 53 because trucks should go in the other direction, toward Interstate 55.

“Where they will be located, near Home Depot [distribution center], they will be going out the other way,” Giarrante said.

The tax abatement is a 50 percent cut in property taxes over five years on the increased value of the property when a 1 million-square-foot plant is built.

City Manager Jim Hock said the abatement amounts to $70,000 a year.

“You can look at it another way,” Hock said. “Today, we have zero, and we’ll gain $70,000.”

After the council approved abatement, attorney Michael Hansen who is representing Saddle Creek said, “It’s not a done deal yet. But this is a great first step toward bringing a solid company to Joliet.”

Hansen said the company is “still a couple of months away” from making a decision on location.

Students raise more than $20K through Jump Rope for Heart VIEWS Kris Stadalsky el and earns a different duck.

“You aren’t going to be mad at someone for raising more money,” she said.

Vlcek added a few more competitive elements of her own to the fundraiser.

She told students if they raised $15,000, she would perform back flips at an assembly. True to her word, she planned to do so at a character building assembly Friday.

Every $50 students raise is a life saved, according to the AHA, because it enables someone to be trained on an Automated External Defibrillator, or AED, which automatically diagnoses certain life-threatening heart problems and delivers a shock to their heart to re-establish a normal heart rhythm.

The money raised by students at Jones Elementary School could save more than 400 lives, and the students are excited about that – as they should be.

“They really went out of their way and did such an amazing thing,” Vlcek said.

“The American Heart Association is beyond excited.”

Other good things came out of the Jump Rope For Heart

fundraiser, too. Students learned about physical education and what it takes to keep their hearts healthy. Vlcek has tied in a unit on the circulatory system, so students can better understand how the body works.

The school also benefits by earning gift certificates for physical education equipment through U.S. Games, which works with the AHA on the fundraiser. More equipment, more physical education, healthier bodies.

The event was a great time for students, teachers and parent volunteers. Students came into the gym in classes, sometimes five at a time, and took turns at competitions such as singles jump rope, doubles, teams and even games. There was one competition just to see how high a student could jump.

The money raised by the Jones Elementary students puts them in the lead for fundraising for the AHA in the southwest suburbs, said Vlcek.

“We were able to help out people with heart disease and show the kids what raising money for a good cause can do,” she said.

Jones Elementary students in Minooka Grade School District 201 went above and beyond to raise money for the American Heart Association’s Jump Rope for Heart.

The kindergarten through fourth-graders raised an astounding $20,199, physical education teacher Amy Vlcek said.

One second-grade student, Abby Clika, raised $1,125.

“We are just so proud of [our students] and all the work they did,” Vlcek said.

The American Heart Association seems to have created a campaign for Jump Rope for Heart that might rival electronic pets such as Tamagotchi or the stuffed animal Beanie Babies craze. Starting a couple years ago, they introduced a line of prizes called Lifesaver Ducks. They have fun names such as Miss Cool and Spy Duck and come in all sorts of crazy colors and designs.

Ducks are won by reaching certain fundraising levels and going online to raise money.

The kids have gone crazy over them, Vlcek said. Students wear them on lanyards around their necks and carry their ducklings to classes to show and compare.

But what’s really neat is that it’s a fun and friendly competition. Students are proud of each other when someone reaches another lev-

AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

‘SHE JUST EXUDED LOVE’ Plainfield woman and former Joliet teacher lived to serve

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Ginger O’Donnell of Plainfield recalled the beautiful boy with a behavior disorder who was a student of her sister Mary O’Donnell.

Mary was a teacher at Cunningham Elementary School in Joliet. Another staff member insisted on taking the boy to the library, despite Mary’s objections that she should walk him there, Ginger said.

Soon afterward, Mary was summoned to the library. The boy was crouched on top of a filing cabinet. She spoke a few quiet words to the boy and he came down.

“She never lost her temper, but one look and you knew she meant business,” Ginger said. “She was a very laidback person and she just exuded love, but in her quiet way. …

Kids respected her and wanted to please her.”

Mary often tutored fellow students at the former St. Francis Academy in Joliet (now

Joliet Catholic Academy). She went on to study chemistry at what is now the College of St. Francis because she liked Sr. Joan, the chemistry professor, Ginger said.

But she never went into chemistry.

“She decided she liked teaching better,” Ginger said. “So she decided to become a teacher.”

When Lewis University in Romeoville offered a master’s degree in special education, Mary, as well as Ginger, enrolled, although Mary did not intend to Mary become a special O’Donnell education teacher.

“She wanted to help everyone in the classroom,” Ginger said. “She figured she could do that if she had a degree in special education.”

In the early 1950s, both Mary and Ginger were accepted to teach military children at the U.S. Army Headquarters in

Heidelberg, Germany. Ginger had taught there for two years, liked it and persuaded Mary to join her.

Ginger taught two more years, and Mary taught for two.

Mary was then asked to teach for two years at the U.S. Air Force School at RAF Lakenheath, England. Afterward, Mary taught at Cunningham until she retired, Ginger said.

That wasn’t the end of Mary’s service – just the beginning of new opportunities.

She was a longtime member of the Visitation & Aid Society in Joliet. She also was a founding member of Joliet Area Community Hospice and served as its treasurer for 16 years, Ginger said.

It was Mary’s way of reaching out to people with cancer.

Many in her family had died from cancer, Ginger said. Mary herself had a double mastectomy due to breast cancer in her early 40s.

“She didn’t want people to worry when they went into the hospice program, that when

they got home, they would have every kind of care,” Ginger said.

Mary also had an artistic side. She was an accomplished chef, grew an impressive garden – roses were her specialty – stitched beautiful needlework and won a dance contest by dancing the Russian Cossack.

With Ginger, Mary traveled extensively.

Mary was 92 when she died Jan. 27. She was profoundly blessed, Ginger said, but not just because of her long life or many talents.

“She realized every day that she was loved by her nieces, nephews and friends,” Ginger said. “She was just a wonderful sister.”

Hickok show coming to Joliet West this weekend • THEATER

Continued from page 3 He and Joliet Central drama teacher Joe Hoyt got into a spirited discussion about high school theater and the quirks of student actors.

“I thought, if you could do all guys in Shakespeare’s day, Walt Willey why can’t you as Wild Bill do all female?”

Hickok Hoyt said to Willey, commenting that male actors playing female parts when Hamlet was first performed. “To me, a piece like ‘Hamlet,’ you have to have talent. We have that

“As long as it’s not seen as a gimmick,” Willey said. “I would hope the judges understand the state of theater today in American high schools, which is try to find three guys.”

Getting guys to perform in high school theater has become a challenge, Willey said. That was not a problem when he was an Ottawa High School student.

“We got the girls, and we

didn’t have to have concussions on Friday nights,” he said. “It made sense to me.”

Hoyt said Willey’s work with students re-engages them. Hearing him talk about such things as moment-before and motivation gives renewed importance to what they learn in drama class.

“It’s great when you bring in someone who the kids see as an expert,” Hoyt said. “All of a sud-

Box 19276, Springfield, Illinois 62794-9276 (herein Agency) that a draft reissued National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit Number IL0002861 has been issued under 40 CFR 124.6(d) for ExxonMobil Oil Corporation, Post Office Box 874, Joliet, Illinois 60434 for discharge into the Des Plaines River from the ExxonMobil Oil Corporation, 25915 S.E.

Plant operation results in an average discharge of 4.32 MGD of treated process and sanitary wastewater and stormwater runoff at Outfall 001, 10.476 MGD of non-contact cooling water and boiler blowdown at Outfall 002, an intermittent discharge of stormwater and hydrostatic test water at outfall 003, and an intermittent discharge of stormwater runoff at Outfalls 004-010.

The application, draft permit and other documents are available for inspection and may be copied at the Agency between 9:30 A.M. and 3:30 P.M. Monday through Friday.

If written comments and/or requests indicate a significant degree of public interest in the draft permit, the permitting authority may, at its discretion, hold a public hearing. Public Notice will be given 30 days before any public hearing.

“I think you have to understand the world a man lived in to understand the man, just like these kids here trying to understand Shakespeare.”

Walt Willey Ottawa native teaching Joliet students about theater den, they say, ‘We know that!’ ” Listening to Willey talk about Wild Bill Hickok, it’s apparent he follows his own advice about learning a character’s depth. He rattles off facts about not only Hickok but life in the Old West.

He talks about reading Hickok’s letters and finding the words “onceth” and “twiceth,” which helped him learn the way Hickok may have talked.

He talks about Hickok wearing his hair long after it was no longer fashionable because men who fought in the Civil War were cutting their hair short to keep it from becoming infested with nits in camp.

He talks about Hickok’s marksmanship and style of actually “shooting from the hip,” which made the phrase part of the American lexicon.

“I think you have to understand the world a man lived in to understand the man,” he said, “just like these kids here trying to understand Shakespeare.”

QUICK NEWS

SPONSORED BY

by Hannah Kohut Self-managing a townhome or condominium association is a big undertaking, even for board members who have been doing so for many years. There are resident disputes, fine and penalty enforcements, maintenance bids and legal matters that can heighten the stress levels amongst neighbors.

Your best bet, in most cases, is to turn over those duties to professional property managers, like Celtic Property Management in Joliet.

“Board members are all volunteers,” said Tim McGinnis, Managing Broker for Celtic Property Management, of residential communities. “When they take on self-management, they are in charge of collecting fines and passing out violations to their neighbors, which puts them in a tough position.”

McGinnis said one main reason associations turn to Celtic for management is for rule enforcement.

If a resident has an unruly pet or has guests who are causing disturbances, Celtic Property Management will not only issue those violations, they will follow up on the enforcement as well, taking the board members out of the scenario.

“Sometimes, board members don’t know how to get from the violation notice to the enforcement of the fine,” McGinnis explained.

“That is where we step in.”

A professional property manager can also help an association financially. Oftentimes, self-managed properties lack the professional bookkeeping and checks-and-balances needed to operate successfully. Celtic Property Management’s expert team knows how to streamline the assessment payment process and collect those assessments, even if a unit is in foreclosure.

“A lot of people don’t know this, but associations can collect back assessments on properties before and after the foreclosure possession date,” McGinnis said.

Then there’s the maintenance.

Board members often don’t have the necessary time or resources to properly shop around for services, like roofers and lawn care. Celtic Property Management handles that process, from collecting and presenting job bids to the board to securing necessary permits and notices to residents.

In addition to neighbor, maintenance and fiscal management, Celtic Property Management will also keep the board up to date on Illinois homeowner and property laws. This means your property will be in-line with legal requirements and less likely to encounter costly court matters.

Professional management from Celtic Property Management starts at a minimal fee per unit. To learn more about Celtic Property Management, you may visit their office located at 3077 West Jefferson St. Joliet, IL. 60435, call, at (815) 730-1500 or visit them at www.Celticpm.com. adno=0298650

Documentary filmmaker Bruce Sinofsky dies at 58 The ASSOCIATED PRESS TRENTON, N.J. – Bruce Sinofsky, an Oscar-nominated and Emmy-award winning documentary filmmaker who gained prominence for his works that shined a spotlight on a child murder case in a small Arkansas town, has Bruce died. He was Sinofsky 58.

Sinofsky’s longtime collaborator Joe Berlinger announced the death on Twitter on Saturday, the eve of the Oscars. He said Sinofsky died earlier Saturday of complications from diabetes.

Sinofsky and Berlinger drew praise and attention for their “Paradise Lost” trilogy, a series of films about the case of three teenage boys convicted in 1994 of killing

three boys in West Memphis, Arkansas. The films, released in 1996, 2004 and 2011, raised questions about evidence used to convict the teens, who became known as the West Memphis Three.

The teens each spent 18 years in prison, but in 2011 they were allowed to enter a plea in which they asserted their innocence while acknowledging there was enough evidence to possibly convict them.

The initial film in the trilogy, “Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills,” went on to win an Emmy, while the final film, “Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory” was nominated for an Academy Award.

Sinofsky and Berlinger also collaborated on the critically acclaimed “Brother’s Keeper,” which documented the case of an elderly man accused of killing his brother,

and on “Metallica: Some Kind of Monster,” a documentary of the renowned heavy metal band.

“We lost a valued member of our family ... as award winning filmmaker Bruce Sinofsky passed away,” the members of Metallica wrote in a statement posted on the band’s website. “Smart, funny and dedicated, Bruce was with us almost every day in the early 2000’s and was an integral part of helping us to navigate the rough waters during those times. Although not very welcomed at times, he was there through some of the darkest times of Metallica.”

Born in Boston, Sinofsky graduated from the Tisch School of the Arts of New York University in 1978. He and Berlinger eventually formed their own production company, Creative Thinking International, in 1991.

NEW YORK – Clark Terry, a Grammy Award-winning jazz trumpeter who played in the orchestras of both Count Basie and Duke Ellington and on “The Tonight Show” and collaborated with jazz greats including Dizzy Gillespie and Thelonious Monk, has died.

He was 94.

Terry’s wife announced his death on his website late Saturday night. Gwen Terry’s statement did not provide further details and she did not immediately respond to messages from The Associated Press.

Born in St. Louis, Terry started playing music as a child. After a stint in the Navy from 1942 to 1945, he worked in a number of bands, joining Count Basie’s orchestra in 1948 and Duke Ellington’s in 1951. In 1960, he joined the house band for “The Tonight Show” and stayed for

more than a decade.

Terry was a frequent performer and prolific recording artist with several hundred recordings to his credit over his decades in the music industry. The list of famous names he recorded with also included Ray Charles, Sarah Vaughn, and Ella Fitzgerald.

Wynton Marsalis, artistic director of Jazz at Lincoln Center, and the orchestra had recently played a concert for a hospitalized Terry in Arkansas in December.

He wrote at the time, Ter-

ry “was the first great jazz trumpeter I had ever heard actually playing live. His spectacular playing made me want to practice (of course) but his warmth and optimism made me to want to be a part of the world of jazz.”

A strong proponent of jazz education, Terry taught at camps, clinics and festivals, and was an ambassador for the musical form around the world.

In 2010, Terry was the given a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.

Rauner budget strikes at hospitals, nursing homes

By CARLA K. JOHNSON The Associated Press CHICAGO – In proposing to cut Illinois’ Medicaid program by $1.5 billion, Gov. Bruce Rauner has chosen to go toe-totoe with three powerful business lobbies: retail pharmacies, nursing homes and hospitals.

The Republican wants to reinstate service cuts temporarily made to Medicaid in 2012 and later restored by the Legislature and his Democratic predecessor, Gov. Pat Quinn.

That would eliminate – again – optional Medicaid services such as adult dental care and podiatry. But Rauner surprised stakeholders by pushing further: proposing nearly $1 billion in payment cuts to health care institutions that traditionally have been able to fight them off.

Medicaid occupies a huge part of all states’ budgets. It’s no surprise Rauner and his ad-

visers see the federal and state health insurance program for the poor as a target for savings as they try to close a $6.2 billion budget deficit, lawmakers of both parties said.

“You know why a robber robs a bank? That’s where the money is,” said Rep. Sara Feigenholtz, a Chicago Democrat.

“Medicaid is the bank.”

Rauner’s plan, unveiled Wednesday, recommends about $19 billion in Medicaid spending to cover nearly 3.5 million Illinoisans. It would maintain eligibility levels and avoid charging higher copays or adding token premium contributions – strategies some stakeholders had expected Rauner to employ.

Instead, hospitals are a main target, shouldering $735 million in payment cuts – a 13 percent reduction, according to the Illinois Hospital Association. That may prove difficult to accomplish. Hospitals are

Lawmakers applaud Gov. Bruce Rauner before he delivers his State of the Budget Address to a joint session of the General Assembly in the House chambers Wednesday in Springfield. Rauner’s first budget proposal seeks $1.5 billion in cuts to Medicaid. The way he gets there shows he’s willing to go toe-to-toe with three powerful business lobbies: retail pharmacies, nursing homes and hospitals. major employers in many districts and the association will tell lawmakers the statewide economic impact of cuts would equate to 12,591 jobs lost.

The association’s political action committee contributes to candidates of both parties,

Republicans, who want to back Rauner, may have trouble supporting the cuts after they hear from local hospital leaders.

for its charitable donations. The company estimates that each customer contributes about 15 cents per month toward its charitable donations.

The Citizens Utility Board, a watchdog group that represents the interests of Illinois’ residential utility customers, has been pushing for more open reporting of ComEd’s charitable gifts, which are buried in regulatory filings.

The group also wants ratepayers to receive credit for sponsorships on organizations’ websites and advertising materials.

“If utilities are going to use ratepayer dollars to make charitable contributions, then consumers should help determine where those dollars are donated, as it is their money at the end of the day,” CUB executive director David Kolata said.

will be delayed if state funding to pay court reporters doesn’t arrive soon.

The Belleville News-Democrat reported Circuit Court Judge John Baricevic said civil cases will need to be delayed if the money doesn’t come by the end of March. He also said that defendants in criminal cases might have to be released from jail if their trials are delayed past schedule.

The issue stems from the $35.7 billion budget passed by lawmakers last spring that didn’t allocate enough money to pay for expenses. The fund for court reporters is about $14 million short.

GOP Gov. Bruce Rauner has been negotiating with legislative leaders in recent weeks for expanded authority to transfer money around in the state budget.

“There will be difficult discussions,” predicted Rep. Patti Bellock, a Hinsdale Republican who helped lead a bipartisan panel that hammered out the Medicaid cuts passed in 2012 known as the SMART Act. “There are a lot of districts where hospitals are extremely important. I consider them the backbone of our communities.”

Democrats, meanwhile, will be pushing for new revenue.

The SMART Act included a $1-per-pack increase in the cigarette tax, noted Sen. Heather Steans, a Chicago Democrat who co-led the 2012 Medicaid overhaul effort.

“We’ve already made most of the eligibility and service reductions allowed,” Steans said. “Everything has to be discussed and negotiated in the context of where we can find savings in the overall budget and where we can put revenues on the table.”

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS U.S. defense chief: Afghan killed. The video included footage from major news organizations army ‘a powerful force’ KANDAHAR, Afghanistan – U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter on Sunday called Afghanistan’s army “a powerful force in their own right” but declined to say whether he thinks the U.S. can scale back military training and advising this year as planned.

Carter wrapped up two days in the war zone by consulting with U.S. and Afghan commanders at Kandahar air field, an important hub in the network of U.S. advisory posts that are due to close before year’s end.

In a question-and-answer session with reporters at this base in southern Afghanistan, Carter declined to say whether his visit had convinced him that the Kandahar operation should stay open longer.

The advisory work here will wind up this summer unless President Barack Obama alters his plan for ending the U.S. military presence.

Somalia extremists urge attacks on shopping malls

JOHANNESBURG – A video purported to be by Somalia’s al-Qaida-linked rebel group alShabab urged Muslims to attack shopping malls in the U.S., Canada, Britain and other Western countries.

The threat came in the final minutes of a more than hourlong video in which the extremists also warned Kenya of more attacks like the September 2013 assault on the Westgate Mall in Nairobi in which 67 people were

showing the assault on the mall and said it was in reprisal for alleged abuses by Kenyan troops against Muslims in Somalia.

The masked narrator concluded by calling on Muslims to attack shopping malls, specifically naming the Mall of America in suburban Minneapolis, as well as the West Edmonton Mall in Canada and the Westfield mall in Stratford, England.

Ala. woman set for trial in granddaughter’s death

GADSDEN, Ala. – An Alabama woman is going on trial on charges of making her granddaughter run until she collapsed and died.

Prosecutors describe 59-yearold Joyce Hardin Garrard as the “drill sergeant from hell.”

They say she made 9-year-old Savannah Hardin run for hours as punishment for a lie about eating candy. The defense said the girl’s medical conditions and treatment decisions led to her death in February 2012.

They deny that Garrard had any intention of harming the girl.

Final jury selection is set to begin in the case this week in Gadsden, Alabama, located about 60 miles northeast of Birmingham. Opening statements will follow. Garrard is charged with capital murder. She faces a potential death penalty and could join only a handful of women on Alabama’s death row if convicted.

Turkish army’s armored vehicles and tanks are seen driving Sunday in Ayn al-Arab as they return from the Ottoman tomb in Syria. Turkey launched an overnight military operation into Syria to evacuate troops guarding the tomb and to move the crypt to a new location, Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Sunday.

Turkish military crosses into Syria to evacuate troops, tomb The ASSOCIATED PRESS ANKARA, Turkey – Hundreds of Turkish troops backed by tanks took part in an overnight operation into neighboring Syria to evacuate dozens of besieged soldiers guarding an Ottoman tomb and remove the remains amid fears the shrine was threatened by Islamic State militants.

The mission late Saturday, saving Turkish soldiers reportedly stuck for months at the tomb of the grandfather of the founder of the Ottoman Empire, was the first such major military incursion by Turkey since the Syrian conflict began in March 2011.

Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said nearly 600 Turkish soldiers on some 100 tanks and armored personnel carriers crossed into Syria near the border town of Kobani late Saturday, as drones and airplanes flew reconnais-

sance missions overhead.

One group traveled to the tomb, some 22 miles from Turkey on the banks of the Euphrates River in Syria’s embattled Aleppo province, he said.

Another group seized an area only 200 yards from the Turkish border in Syria’s Ashma region to be the new home for the tomb, according to a statement from President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s office.

One soldier was killed in an “accident” during the operation, Turkey’s military said.

“Before the Turkish flag was lowered at [the tomb], the Turkish flag started to be waved at another location in Syria,” Davutoglu said. He said troops destroyed the complex once housing the tomb.

Turkish media later showed nationalistic images of three Turkish soldiers raising the country’s flag at the new site.

The U.S.-led coalition forces were informed of the Turkish operation after its launch to prevent any casualties, Davutoglu said.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, while in London, spoke by telephone Sunday with Turkey’s foreign minister and expressed condolences over the Turkish soldier killed during the operation, the State Department said. It said the U.S. and Turkey were in close and continuing coordination on developments in Syria, including intelligence sharing.

Syria’s Foreign Ministry denounced the Turkish operation, calling it a “flagrant aggression.”

In a statement carried by the state news agency, it also said that the mission demonstrated “the depth of ties” between Turkey and the Islamic State group. Syria routinely accuses Turkey of supporting the extremist group.

Wrecked oil tankers and debris from a runaway train are seen July 8, 2013, in Lac-Megantic, Quebec, Canada, after a crash that killed 47 people and caused an estimated $1.2 billion in damage. ysis, which predicts 10 “higher consequence events” causing more extensive damage and potential fatalities.

If just one of those more severe accidents occurred in a high-population area, it could kill more than 200 people and cause roughly $6 billion in damage.

“Such an event is unlikely, but such damages could occur when a substantial number of

people are harmed or a particularly vulnerable environmental area is affected,” the analysis concluded.

The two fuels travel through communities with an average population density of 283 people per square kilometer, according to the federal analysis. That means about 16 million Americans live within a half-kilometer of one of the lines.

Such proximity is equiva-

lent to the zone of destruction left by a July 2013 oil train explosion that killed 47 people and leveled much of downtown Lac-Megantic, Quebec, the analysis said.

Damage at Lac-Megantic has been estimated at $1.2 billion or higher.

A spokesman for the Association of American Railroads said the group was aware of the Department of Transportation analysis but had no comment on its derailment projections.

“Our focus is to continue looking at ways to enhance the safe movement of rail transportation,” AAR spokesman Ed Greenberg said.

Both the railroad group and the Railway Supply Institute, which represents tank car owners and manufacturers, said federal officials had inflated damage estimates and exaggerated risk by assuming an accident even worse than Lac-Megantic, which was already an outlier because it involved a runaway train traveling 65 mph, far faster than others that had accidents.

Poll: Most back Obama’s Homeland Security chief: Budget investment tax hike plan stall muddies U.S. response to IS

By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER and EMILY SWANSON The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The rich aren’t taxed enough, and the middle class is taxed too much.

As for your taxes, you probably think they’re too high.

Those are the results of an Associated Press-GfK poll that found most people in the United States support President Barack Obama’s proposal to raise investment taxes on high-income families.

The findings echo the populist messages of two liberal senators – Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Bernie Sanders of Vermont – being courted by the progressive wing of the Democratic Party to run for president in 2016.

The results also add weight to Obama’s new push to raise taxes on the rich and use some of the revenue to lower taxes on the middle class.

Obama calls his approach

“middle-class economics.”

According to the poll, 68 percent of those questioned said wealthy households pay too little in federal taxes; only 11 percent said the wealthy pay too much.

Also, 60 percent said middle-class households pay too much in federal taxes; 7 percent said they paid too little.

Obama laid out a series of tax proposals as part of his 2016 budget released this month.

One would boost capital gains taxes on households making more than $500,000. In the survey, 56 percent favored it; only 16 percent opposed it.

Democrats, at 71 percent, were most likely to back raising taxes on capital gains. Among Republicans and independents, 46 percent supported it.

Obama’s other tax plans didn’t fare as well. About 27 percent favored making estates pay capital gains taxes on assets when they are inherited, and 36 percent opposed it.

By STEPHEN BRAUN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The possible shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security threatens the Obama administration’s efforts to counter the extremist appeal of the Islamic State group within the U.S. and to respond with emergency aid to communities struggling with winter snowstorms, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson warned Sunday.

In a round of appearances on network news programs, Johnson said if Congress fails to agree on a new budget for his department by Friday’s end, lawmakers’ inaction would lead to staff furloughs that could hamstring U.S. response to terrorist threats and warnings, such as the one late Saturday that names the Mall of America. He said up to 30,000

DHS workers would have to be furloughed, including up to 80 percent of Federal Emergency Jeh Johnson Management Agency workers even as that agency contends with two months of devastating snowfall and cold from New England to the Mountain States.

“It’s absurd that we’re even having this conversation about Congress’ inability to fund Homeland Security in these challenging times,” he said.

After a week’s break, Congress returns to work Monday, just days before funding for DHS’ $40 billion budget ends. Lawmakers have until the end of the week to approve the budget and avoid shutting down the department, but no clear solution is in sight.

“The House has acted to fund the Homeland Security Department,” Kevin Smith, a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner, said in an email on Sunday. “Now it’s time for Senate Democrats to stop blocking legislation that would do the same.”

A House-passed bill would cover the department through Sept. 30 and overturn President Barack Obama’s executive action to limit deportations for millions of immigrants in the United States illegally. But Senate Democrats are preventing a vote on a similar, Senate measure.

The issue was clouded further last week when a federal district court judge in Texas temporarily blocked the administration’s plans to protect immigrant parents of U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents from deportation.

BILLINGS, Mont. – The federal government predicts that trains hauling crude oil or ethanol will derail an average of 10 times a year over the next two decades, causing more than $4 billion in damage and possibly killing hundreds of people if an accident happens in a densely populated part of the U.S. The projection comes from a previously unreported analysis by the Department of Transportation that reviewed the risks of moving vast quantities of both fuels across the nation and through major cities. The study completed last July took on new relevance this week after a train loaded with crude derailed in West Virginia, sparked a spectacular fire and forced the evacuation of hundreds of families.

Monday’s accident was the latest in a spate of fiery derailments, and senior federal officials said it drives home the

need for stronger tank cars, more effective braking systems and other safety improvements.

“This underscores why we need to move as quickly as possible getting these regulations in place,” said Tim Butters, acting administrator for the Transportation Department’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration.

The volume of flammable liquids transported by rail has risen dramatically over the last decade, driven mostly by the oil shale boom in North Dakota and Montana. This year, rails are expected to move nearly 900,000 car loads of oil and ethanol in tankers. Each can hold 30,000 gallons of fuel.

Based on past accident trends, anticipated shipping volumes and known ethanol and crude rail routes, the analysis predicted about 15 derailments in 2015, declining to about five a year by 2034.

The 207 total derailments over the two-decade period would cause $4.5 billion in damage, according to the anal-

J.K. Simmons accepts the award for best actor in a supporting role for “Whiplash” at the Oscars on Sunday at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.

J.K. Simmons wins for supporting actor

By LYNN ELBER The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – J.K. Simmons offered heartfelt thanks in accepting the best supporting actor Oscar for “Whiplash,” and there wasn’t an agent or manager on his list.

Instead, Simmons expressed gratitude Sunday to his wife, children and parents, and even encouraged the audience to give their own parents a shout – by phone, he said, not via social media.

It was a very un-Hollywood speech from the journeyman character actor who’s cut his own path, always gaining acclaim but, before Oscar night, rarely in the spotlight.

Ceremony host Neil Patrick Harris slyly noted that the new Oscar winner also is a commercial star, for Farmers Insurance: Harris hummed the company’s theme music.

High collars replaced sexy cutouts, and Classic Hollywood in blacks and whites took hold of the Oscars red carpet Sunday night with help from a smoking Saint Laurent worn by Margot Robbie and a heavily pearled look for fashion girl Lupita Nyong’o.

There was a slight show of color. Anna Kendrick was in a coral silk-and-chiffon gown with a jeweled halter collar by Thakoon, and Sienna Miller was the first on a major carpet to wear Peter Copping for Oscar de la Renta, a brooding dark blue with thin straps.

Jessica Chastain had navy blue all to herself in a double-layered dress with bodice of sparkle that was tight at the hip with a high slit. It had the online snark machine decrying the look as a tad too much Jessica Rabbit.

“She was my best friend since we were 7 or 8 years old,” said Arquette, nominated for best supporting actress for “Boyhood.”

Arquette recalled the two playing with Barbie dolls and dreaming of their grown-up lives.

“I said, ‘I want to be an actress.’ She said, ‘I want to be in fashion,’ ” Arquette told The Associated Press.

PREP WRESTLING: STATE FINALS RECAP

Class 3A champions make history

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com CHAMPAIGN – Saturday proved to be a historic day for several Class 3A wrestlers in the IHSA finals at the State Farm Center.

Lockport’s Shayne Oster joined brothers Jake and Jameson as a state champion to make the Osters one of the few in state history to have three different brothers win titles.

Plainfield East’s Michael McGee pulled off an equally unusual feat of becoming his program’s initial medal winner while winning a state championship.

And St. Rita’s Austin O’Connor, who lives in Lockport, became just the third wrestler from his school to win multiple titles, as well as the second to do so in his first two years there.

Plainfield South’s Eric Johnson was hoping to become his program’s first champ, but he fell short in that quest as the Cougars claimed a second -place finish for the third straight year.

Shayne Oster put his name up there with Jake (2004) and Jameson (2009) after beating Marmion’s Anthony Cheloni, 5-4, to capture the Class 3A 138-pound title. The Porter junior, who took third at 126 pounds last year, is 39-3 on the season.

Although there is no established list on the subject, it is believed that only three other trios of brothers won state titles at the same school before the Osters joined the elite group.

Those brother acts consist of Rick, Steve and Mike Bay from Waukegan; Tony, Pete and Greg Alber from Dakota; and Joe, Steve and T.J. Williams from Mount Carmel.

Hinsdale Central’s Matt Allen nearly joined brothers Jack and Brian as champions, but he was edged in the Class 3A heavyweight championship match Saturday.

Josh Oster, the oldest of the five brothers who have wrestled for the Porters and who is also the team’s coach, reflected

Clark Brooks for Shaw Media

Lockport’s Shayne Oster is declared winner and state champion after his victory over Marmion’s Anthony Cheloni in their 138-pound Class 3A championship match Saturday night at the IHSA state wrestling finals at the State Farm Center in Champaign. Oster won the bout, 5-4, for the title. on what it meant to see a third brother capture a state title.

“Shayne wrestled smart and well,” Josh Oster said.

“He had some close matches, but he can be down by a couple of points and keeps plugging away. He doesn’t get rattled, and his composure is off the charts. He doesn’t show much emotion one way or the other; but every once in a while, you’ll catch a half smile or a hint of anger, and that helps

him to wrestle better. He’s a disciplined kid who’s great in school, and he knows that he has a lot of people behind him.

“We’ve been very fortunate our whole life with the support that our parents have given us. My dad got us started and has always been positive – and win, lose or draw, it stays out there on the mat. If we wanted to talk about a match, we could, and if we didn’t, he’d let it be. They always let our

coaches coach us and provided the support to let us go out of state and do whatever we could to get better, even though they had to make real sacrifices. They wanted what was best for their kids, and they did it.”

McGee capped a 39-2 season when he recorded a fall in 3:43 over Sandburg’s Louie Hayes to capture the Class 3A 106-pound championship.

The Bengals sophomore,

who lost his lone match at state a year ago, not only became his program’s first medal winner but also is East’s initial state champion in any sport.

East coach Nick Curby, who has established a solid program in a short time, realized just how important of an accomplishment this title was for all involved.

“We knew from day one that Michael was good and that he has a lot of skill, but the greatest asset that he has is that he works hard,” Curby said. “He’s been very focused and determined, and these are the results that he has been working for. All year – but especially when we got to the state series – he knew what he wanted to do, and everything that he did was working toward that moment. And what a great way to capture what he was working for.

“As a coach, I was nervous, but I never got the sense that Michael was nervous. I think that he really believed that he could win. We talked about how if you believe it, it’s going to happen, and he knew that – and I think it took away a lot of his nerves. He knew that he was capable of going out and winning it, and he did. After not even getting a win at state last year to getting a placewinner and a champ, it’s a great feeling for our program.”

O’Connor, who won the Class 3A 106 title a year ago, claimed top honors at 132 after posting a 14-6 victory over New Trier’s Alec McKenna.

The sophomore finished with a 45-1 record.

Only Albert White and Jerome Ward had won two or more titles for the Mustangs.

And just White, a four-time state champion, had won two through his sophomore year.

Johnson, who won one match last year in his first state trip, settled for second place at 220 after falling, 9-6, to Hinsdale South’s Joshua King. The Cougars junior, who finished with a 46-4 mark, was hoping to win his school’s first title, something that Miguel Silva fell just short of doing the past two years.

Leading racer calls Joliet snocross site ‘a fun track’ and ‘a cool venue’

By TIM CRONIN Shaw Media Correspondent

• Monday, February 23, 2015

JOLIET – Entering the weekend, renowned racer Tucker Hibbert expressed reservations about the apparent tightness of the snocross track built on the dragstrip at Route 66 Raceway.

“It’s a pretty intimate environment,” he said.

But by Saturday night, even before his sweep of the weekend Pro Open series races, Hibbert was a believer.

“It was a fun track. It’s a cool venue with the bleachers so close,” Hibbert said.

The track had big jumps on the front straightaway – the right lane for dragsters – a three-turn east end that included a right-hander for those venturing to pass, and a backstretch consisting of about nine smaller jumps that demanded precision. Not every rider was precise.

“The technical part is difficult and will get more difficult as the night goes on,” Hibbert said.

Not for him. He dominated his two-heat races, then ran away with the 14-lap final race to capture his fifth-straight win, his ninth in 12 starts on the campaign and the 104th of his career.

“That was an awesome race,” Hibbert said before hopping on the podium. “We won all the qualifiers and both main events, so we couldn’t have done any better.”

Hibbert’s win Saturday was all but locked in after he passed early leader Ross Martin on the inside of the second turn.

Martin had jumped to the front with a solid start, while Hibbert was pinched going into the first turn. But with his skill – and whatever father Kirk Hibbert and team conjured up for the engine of his Arctic Cat – once he was in the lead, there was no question he would stay there.

Martin came after him, fell back and eventually slid off the track. Two laps later, his sled broke. He placed 14th.

Saturday also appeared to be a success for Route 66. The temperature was in the 30s during the day and 28 degrees for the Pro Open final, far more hospitable than Friday’s bone-chilling cold and wind, which limited the audience to perhaps 2,000. That helped attract an estimated 11,000 spectators, including some 800 with cozy indoor seating, to Saturday’s 13-hour showcase.

Track president Scott Paddock had been told the big walkup crunch would come between 5:30 and 7 p.m. – and like clockwork, there was a big line of cars crawling into the parking lot. That bodes well for a return visit, although nothing will be decided until it warms up.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL: U. OF ST. FRANCIS 83, TRINITY INTERNATIONAL 59

AREA ROUNDUP

Gonnering shatters scoring Joliet Central falls records during USF victory short in upset bid SUBMITTED REPORT JOLIET – Senior Katie Gonnering set the NAIA Division II record for most free throws made in a season and broke the school season scoring mark as the University of St. Francis women’s basketball team defeated Trinity International, 83-59, in the regular-season Katie f i n a l e S a t u r - Gonnering day evening for both Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference teams at the Sullivan Center.

The victory assured St. Francis (16-14, 12-5 CCAC) of the No. 2 seed in the CCAC South Division, thus giving the Saints the opportunity to host a CCAC Tournament quarterfinal at 5 p.m. Wednesday against Robert Morris.

Gonnering hit eight free throws to give her 239 for the

season, surpassing the previous NAIA Division II season record of 236 set by Oklahoma Wesleyan’s Britney Kannady in 2003-04. Gonnering’s 18 points on the night gave her 692 for the season to eclipse the previous USF season standard of 688 set by Chris Prieboy in 1982. Prieboy is the mother of St. Francis women’s basketball coach Samantha Quigley.

St. Francis built an early 13-2 lead and took its largest lead of the opening half, 29-10, on a pair of free throws from sophomore Kamari Jordan (Bolingbrook) at the 8:30 mark.

The Trojans answered with a 12-2 run to trim the gap to 3122 with 5 minutes to go in the half.

After a 3-pointer from senior Kaitlyn Ray (Lincoln-Way West) pushed the Saints’ advantage back to 34-22, Trinity International outscored USF, 13-2, during the final 3:55 of the half to slice St Francis’ lead to 36-35.

USF held the advantage for the first five minutes of the second half until Daja Johnson gave Trinity International (2-27, 1-17) its only lead, 50-49, with 14:40 remaining.

St. Francis responded with a 13-2 run to restore its lead, 6252, at the midway point of the half. After Basha Ramsey hit a jumper at the 8:29 mark to trim the deficit to 62-54, USF scored the next 12 points to put it out of reach. Ramsey led all scorers with 23 points.

In addition to her 18 points, Gonnering grabbed 10 rebounds to notch her 13th double-double of the season and 48th of her career. Senior Leah Avery also posted a double-double with 16 points and 10 boards. Jordan added 13 points, while Ray and freshman Christina Ekhomu (Joliet Catholic) each scored 11.

Ekhomu also dished out eight assists as the Saints won their sixth straight and 14th in their final 18 regular-season games.

SUBMITTED REPORTS

LINCOLN – After Friday night’s 66-53 victory over rival Joliet West, Joliet Central boys basketball team traveled to Lincoln on Saturday night and came within a whisker of upsetting the Railsplitters (24-4), falling 56-54.

Darius Stokes hit 5 of 6 shots from 3-point range and scored 15 points for the Steelmen (12-11), who made 9 of 18 3-pointers in all and led, 32-29, at halftime. Jose Grubbs chipped in nine points, Kewon Ware eight and Taquan Sims seven to go with six assists.

Kenyon Woodfork had five rebounds and Ware four, helping Central to a 22-19 advantage. The difference, however, was at the free-throw line, where the Steelmen were 1 for 1 while Lincoln was 20 of 23 in the nonconference game.

MEN’S BASKETBALL: U. OF ST. FRANCIS 82, TRINITY INTERNATIONAL 79 (OT)

USF wins in overtime, gets a share of conference title SUBMITTED REPORT JOLIET – Sophomore Jake Raspopovich converted a critical three-point play in overtime to help propel the University of St. Francis men’s basketball team to an 82-79 win Saturday night over Trinity International at the Sullivan Center.

With the victory, USF claimed a share of the Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference regular-season title, its first in 19 years.

St. Francis (22-8, 16-3), which tied Olivet Nazarene and Cardinal Stritch for the top spot in the conference, last captured a CCAC title in 199596. Olivet earned an automatic bid to the NAIA Division

II Tournament by virtue of the CCAC tiebreaking procedures.

USF led, 34-29, at halftime and remained on top for all but 33 seconds in the second half until Trinity International (13-16, 8-11) went up, 68-67, on a Dillon Wadsack jumper with 2:15 left in regulation. A layup from junior Ilya Ilyayev with 1:19 to go, followed by a pair of Raspopovich free throws with 42 seconds left, gave USF a 73-70 lead. But the Trojans sent the game into overtime when Justin Peeples buried a 3-pointer with :34 remaining.

With the Saints trailing, 77-75, Raspopovich drew a foul while making a layup and hit the ensuing free throw to put

the Saints on top for good, 78-77. USF missed two of four free throws in the game’s final 26 seconds but held on for the victory.

Raspopovich and Ilyayev paced the Saints, who finished the regular season 11-1 at home, with 15 points apiece. Raspopovich also collected seven assists. Junior Jens Kennedy (Dwight) added 14 points and three blocked shots, while junior Edvinas Presniakovas (Plainfield South) scored 10 points to give him 998 for his career.

Peeples led the Trojans with 16 points. Wadsack had 14 and Sam Salem 11.

St. Francis will host Roosevelt in a CCAC quarterfinal game at 7 p.m. Wednesday.

Dwight (23-4, 7-0) concluded the regular season as Sangamon Valley Conference champion and the No. 5-ranked team in the Associated Press Class 1A poll.

Devin Connolly scored 15 points, Caleb Boma and Ryan Gaston chipped in 12 apiece, and Collin Irvin added 10 for the Trojans, who host a Class 1A regional this week.

NASCAR SPRINT CUP

Joey Logano celebrates in Victory Lane after winning the Daytona 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup series race Sunday at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla. after four underwhelming seasons at Joe Gibbs Racing.

Penske snatched him up before the 2013 season, and the move jumpstarted his career.

He made the field of four drivers in last year’s championship finale, and was in contention until a poor late pit stop.

There’s no better rebound from that disappointment than giving the “The Captain” his second Daytona 500 title. Penske, one of the most respected

team owners in motorsports, also has a record 15 Indianapolis 500 wins.

After the win, Logano reflected on the uncertainty he had about his future at 22 years old after looking his place with Gibbs.

“Some of the emotions you go through, you start to think, ‘Man, am I going to have a job next year?’ That’s kind of hard as a race car driver,” Logano said. “I poured all my eggs in

BRUINS 6, BLACKHAWKS 2

Bruins rout Hawks; losing streak at 3

By MATT CARLSON The Associated Press CHICAGO – Patrice Bergeron was happier that the Boston Bruins ended their losing streak than he was about reaching a personal milestone.

Bergeron opened the scoring with his 200th goal, then added two assists in Boston’s four-goal second period, and the Bruins snapped a season-high six-game losing streak with a 6-2 rout Sunday of the Blackhawks.

Reilly Smith had a goal and assist for the Bruins, who were 0-4-2 during the slide, their longest winless stretch since 2010. Loui Eriksson, Milan Lucic, Gregory Campbell and Dougie Hamilton also scored for Boston, which pulled away in the finale of a five-game road trip.

“It was nice to see us stay fo-

Hawks recall Lemont’s Darling CHICAGO – The struggling Blackhawks have recalled forward Joakim Nordstrom and goalie Scott Darling, a Lemont native, from Rockford of the American Hockey League.

The Hawks also reassigned goalie Antti Raanta and forward Ryan Hartman to their top minor league affiliate after Sunday’s 6-2 loss to Boston.

Darling is 5-2 with a 1.97 goals-against average in seven games with the Hawks. cused no matter what, and just be strong mentally and find a way to keep pushing the pace,” Bergeron said.

And the Bruins’ slide – which has put them in danger of missing the playoffs for the first time since 2007 – is over.

Bruins coach Claude Julien

liked what he saw, as the Bruins quickly nipped a Hawks comeback early in the second and then took charge.

Boston’s Tuukka Rask made 26 saves and coasted to the win, but he took two penalties late in the first period that allowed the Hawks to trim a 2-0 Boston lead to 2-1.

Jonathan Toews and Bryan Bickell scored for the Hawks, who have lost three straight (0-2-1) for the first time since last March. The six goals against the Hawks matched a season high, and the four against the Hawks in the second set a season mark for a period.

“It goes without saying that we need to be better, and what level we need to get to as a group,” Toews said. “Every single guy needs to look at himself.”

“We’re not going to let these last couple games snowball in the wrong direction for us.”

one basket. You don’t know what’s going to happen.

“Who would ever guess three years down the road we’d be sitting here saying we’re Daytona 500 champions? That’s crazy. Life is a roller coaster.”

Penske, who last year won the IndyCar championship with Will Power and the owners championship in NASCAR’s Xfinity Series, said he never hesitated in hiring Logano.

“It’s paid off in spades for us,” Penske said. “This is just the start, I think, of a career.

He’s going to be a guy at the top for a long time.”

He’s the second youngest Daytona 500 winner in history, behind Trevor Bayne, who was 20 when he pulled off an upset victory in 2011.

Logano’s win gave Ford a sweep of the opening weekend at Daytona. Tyler Reddick won Friday night’s Truck Series race driving for Keselowski, and Ryan Reed won the Xfinity race on Saturday for Roush Fenway Racing.

Ford also won the prestigious Rolex 24 at Daytona in January with Chip Ganassi Racing.

MICHIGAN STATE 60, ILLINOIS 53

Michigan St. holds off Illinois’ charge The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHAMPAIGN – Travis Trice scored 18 points off the bench, including a pair of late free throws, to help Michigan State seal a win Sunday night over Illinois, 60-53.

Michigan State (19-8, 10-4 Big Ten) ran its winning streak to four games in a physical, sometimes chippy road victory.

The Spartans led by as many as 11 with less than five minutes to play. But Illinois (17-10, 7-7) closed to within three points and with 38 seconds to play had a chance to tie, but Kendrick Nunn missed a 3-pointer.

Trice brought down the rebound, drew a foul and hit the free throws.

Denzel Valentine led Michigan State with 20 points and nine rebounds. Branden Dawson added 13 points and seven boards. Matt Costello fouled out late.

Malcolm Hill led Illinois with 17 points and Rayvonte Rice added 15. The Illini have lost two straight.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Soaked in booze but drinking a Coke, Joey Logano fretted over how he and his new bride would celebrate his most significant victory.

“I don’t know how to party,” the 24-year-old said with a sheepish grin.

Winning the Daytona 500 will provide him the ultimate chance to unleash.

More than two years after nearly washing out of one of NASCAR’s top Joey Logano rides, Logano surged to the front of the sport with Sunday’s win in “The Great American Race.” The victory earned Logano an automatic berth in the championship race and ended a rough week for NASCAR marked with multiple wrecks, the injury of a star driver and a headline-grabbing suspension.

Despite all the drama leading into the season-opening race, the event itself was one

of the more anticlimactic in recent years despite white-knuckle racing over the final 50 miles.

Logano surged ahead of the pack on a two-lap sprint to the finish and had command when a wreck behind him brought out a caution that allowed him to coast to the finish line.

Then the champagne spray began. After the victory lane party, Logano wasn’t sure what he and new wife, Brittany, should do next. The couple was married in December.

“When I first started racing, I wasn’t 21, so milk and cookies was my partying. Now I’m old enough,” said Logano, who won $1.58 million for first place. “Usually, Brittany and I sit down and re-watch the race.”

Logano, who has spent seven years trying to live up to impossible expectations, raced to the biggest win of his career as he continued to reward Roger Penske for catapulting him into one of NASCAR’s top stars.

Nicknamed “Sliced Bread” when he broke into the Sprint Cup Series at 18 because so many predicted him to be the next big thing, Logano found himself searching for a new job

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Your guess may be how to get home

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand, a French statesman who died in 1838, said, “What I have been taught, I have forgotten; what I know, I have guessed.”

Sometimes declarer might have to guess after excellent defense. More often, though, declarer will control his own fate.

However, before we get to the play of today’s deal, look only at the North hand. With both sides vulnerable, South opens two spades, showing a good six-card suit and 6-10 high-card points.

After West passes, what should North respond?

After you have decided, look at all 52 cards. How can South get home in four spades after West leads the club queen?

In the auction, North must bid four spades, not three no-trump. This deal shows why. If East guesses to take the first spade trick in no-trump, the South hand will be worth zero tricks. Even if East ducks one round of spades, three no-trump has no chance.

In four spades, South might have to guess the trump split. He wins the first trick with dummy’s club king, leads a spade to his queen and continues with the spade king. If East ducks, South must not lead another trump. Instead, he should play a heart to dummy’s ace, ruff a heart, cross to dummy with a diamond, ruff a heart, return to dummy with a diamond, cash the club ace and lead another heart. Here, he cannot go wrong. But if spades were 3-3, he would have to guess who had cleverly ducked his ace twice. If East, South must ruff with his spade jack; if West, South must ruff with his spade seven. If he gets it wrong, he should congratulate his opponent.

and change your position.

Don’t rest your chin on your chest when reading.

And don’t spend hours with a phone cupped between your shoulder and ear; use a hands-free headset instead.

Try a relaxation strategy such as biofeedback. In this technique, you learn to recognize when your muscles are becoming tense and how to relax them, based on signals from your own body. If you get tension headaches frequently, particularly if you also have pain in the neck and shoulders, do regular stretching exercises of the neck muscles.

Some people have trigger points at the back of the neck or shoulders.

Touching these tender areas can prompt a tension headache. Injecting a local anesthetic into the trigger points may eliminate the pain and prevent a headache. The effect usually lasts for a few days. Injections are typically given every few weeks. Usually, though, such treatments aren’t necessary; simpler measures do the job.

Your doctor can also prescribe medications to help prevent tension headaches. These include tricyclic antidepressant medications and long-acting muscle relaxants.

With tension headaches, as with many conditions, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Avoid the triggers and keep your neck and shoulder muscles loose: That’s the ounce of prevention. It will greatly reduce your need for pain medicines and keep tension headaches from interfering with your life.

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff

A U E L

Dear Doctor K: I get tension headaches fairly often. What’s the best way to treat and prevent them?

Dear Reader: Tension headaches are the most common type of headache.

The pain – usually a dull tightness or pressure – may envelop your entire head, or it may strike only your forehead or the back or top of your head.

(I’ve put an illustration showing where tension headaches usually strike on my website, AskDoctorK.com.)

Tension headaches occur when muscles of the scalp and the back of the neck tighten up. A variety of factors can trigger this muscle tightness.

Common triggers include stress, missed meals, lack of sleep, fatigue, eyestrain, whiplash and poor posture. These same problems can worsen an existing tension headache.

Tension headaches generally respond to over-the-counter (OTC) painkillers. However, pain relievers target only the symptom of tension headaches (pain), without addressing the underlying cause (muscle tension).

Targeting the muscle tension is a better strategy for both treatment and prevention.

If you already have a tension headache, a fast-acting but short-lived muscle relaxant can loosen head and neck muscles. These medications don’t relieve pain more effectively than painkillers, but they do address the cause of the tension headache.

To prevent tension headaches, start by getting enough sleep and not skipping meals. Pace yourself to avoid becoming overly tired. Apply a heating pad to your neck and shoulders to relax muscles when they feel tight. Or rub peppermint oil on your temples.

Don’t subject your head and neck muscles to prolonged strain. If you have a desk job, take frequent breaks to get up

Research philosophies that resonate with you and come up with a plan that will help you reach your life goals. Take control and see what happens. Love and friendship are on the rise.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Spending time with people who don’t appreciate you or are overly demanding will be tiresome and counterproductive.

deals or real estate holdings will offer a profit. Do your research and you will discover how you can turn something you are good at into additional income.

Daughter asks to be relieved of obligation to visit her dad

Dear Abby: I am a divorced woman with a teenaged daughter. I maintain a good relationship with my ex-husband and his family, and still consider them my family.

The problem is, my ex and our daughter have a strained relationship, mostly because he makes little effort to spend time with her. He doesn’t attend her school functions, and most of the time when she’s with him he’s sleeping or watching TV. She is also sick of the multiple girlfriends that cycle in and out of his life. He doesn’t realize how much these things affect her.

She has asked me not to make her see him anymore. She’s 15, and I’m unsure if the law allows her to make that decision, but I think it’s unwise and she would regret it later. I also worry that everyone in the family will blame me, and my relationship with them will be strained.

I don’t know if I should just tell him she won’t be coming to his house anymore or if I should continue to make her go. I’m not sure he really cares. I’d appreciate any advice. –

Worried Mom in Arkansas

Dear Worried Mom: Have you discussed this with your ex? If you have and nothing has changed, then I don’t think you should force your daughter to go any longer. But check with a lawyer to be sure about the law in your state.

When daughters are ignored the way yours has been, they begin to think there’s something wrong with themselves – that they deserve it. It can have a lasting negative impact on a girl’s self-esteem, which is not healthy.

That she no longer wants to be subjected to it is understandable.

If you’re afraid your former in-laws will blame you, tell them what you have told me. Whether your ex cares or is relieved is something no one can know until she doesn’t show up, and I sincere-

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips ly doubt she’ll have any regrets about not having to tolerate those distasteful visits later on.

Dear Abby: My social circle includes a woman who has problems in restaurants. Something comes over her in this environment – either the waiter is ignoring her, the order is taking too long, she wants to tweak the menu to her liking, the cost is too high or there’s a mistake on the bill. There is no end to it.

One night she didn’t like the salad, so she picked up bits of it and tossed them on the table. Needless to say, no one wants to go out with her anymore.

Her husband, however, is a great guy. When we mentioned this to him, he replied, “You’ve noticed it, too?”

Have you heard of this?

What’s wrong with her?

She is strong-willed in most things, but the restaurant scene is her extreme.

Any light you can shed on this would be most appreciated. – Lost My Appetite in

Indiana

Dear Lost: Having never met the woman, it’s hard to pinpoint what may be wrong. She may have OCD, be easily frustrated, or be displacing anger or frustration about something else onto the servers who cannot defend themselves.

Frankly, the woman sounds like a pain in the posterior, and because she makes a habit of making those around her uncomfortable, I’m having trouble understanding why you continue to socialize with them. Many people wouldn’t.

Perhaps the husbands can arrange to see him socially without her being present.

PUBLIC NOTICE NOTICE OF INTENT TO DISCONTINUE RAIL SERVICE STB Docket No. AB-290 (Sub-No. 365X) Norfolk Southern Railway Company (“NSR”) gives notice that on or about March 16, 2015, it intends to file with the Surface Transportation Board (“STB”), Washington, DC 20423, an individual petition for exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502 from the prior approval requirements of 49 U.S.C. 10903, et seq., permitting NSR to discontinue service over approximately 1.5 miles of rail line (hereinafter, the “Line”) located in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. The Line extends from milepost KN 4.0 to milepost KN 5.5, and traverses portions of United States Postal Zip Code territory 60632. The proceeding has been docketed as STB Docket No. AB-290 (Sub-No. 365X).

The proposed action entails the discontinuance of rail service over the Line for which further Board approval would be required for NSR to abandon service on the line. Accordingly, this proceeding is exempt from environmental reporting requirements under 49 C.F.R. § 1105.6 (c) and from historic reporting requirements under 49 C.F.R. § 1105.8 (b), and the STB will not prepare an environmental assessment.

Planning Department City of Lockport

Appropriate offers of financial assistance to continue rail service under a subsidy can be filed with the Board. Because the proposed action is for the discontinuance of service over, but not the abandonment of the Line, requests for public use conditions and rail banking/trails will not be accepted. An original and 10 copies of any pleading in response to the proposed discontinuance of service (such as offers of financial assistance) must be filed directly with the Board's Section of Administration, Office of Proceedings, 395 E Street, S.W., Washington, DC 20423 [See 49 C.FR. §§ 1104.1(a) and 1104.3(a)], and one copy must be served on NSR's representative [See 49 CFR § 1104.12(a)].
