By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com A bill that would have given the City of Joliet the option of taking ownership of the old state prison on Collins Street appears to be stalled.

Senate Bill 1917 remains in a revenue and finance sub-committee, state Rep. Larry Walsh Jr. said Thursday. Legislators were concerned about the state’s liability should the former Joliet Correctional Center require environmental remediation, Walsh said.

Walsh said Thursday that with only two days remaining before the General Assembly is scheduled to adjourn, it is unlikely any action would be taken on that bill or another

Several of the prison buildings are deteriorating.

The roof on the main building recently collapsed.

Other buildings are experiencing peeling paint, crumbling drywall and collapsing ceilings. Elevated amounts of metals have been found in the soil in areas where prison industries operated, according to a 2012 technical report on the property.

A second bill, Senate Bill 341, which would provide tax credits to private investors to develop state-owned properties, also remains at the committee stage.

Walsh said the idea of tax credits was a tough sell this session given the state’s budget shortfall.

“Once it comes into a community, it kills off the trees.”

piece of legislation that would have provided tax incentives to a private developer of the prison property.

The city, in conjunction with the Joliet Area Historical Museum, recently proposed offering tours of the facility at 1100 Collins St., better known as Joliet Prison.

The legislation would have allowed the city to purchase prison property both west and east of Collins Street for $10.

Property west of Collins Street includes the prison itself, about 20 acres and 24 buildings surrounded on all sides a by 25-foot limestone walls.

The eastern property extends about a half mile east of Collins Street between Woodruff Road and Dartmouth Av-

WHERE IT’S AT

Ash trees coming down in Lockport

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – Lockport plans to cut down all ash trees on city property over the next several years.

The most fragile and damaged of trees on city property will be removed first, with about 400 dead ash trees planned for removal this year.

But city officials have scheduled to remove 2,300 trees in the next few years, according to an announcement of the plan issued Thursday.

The city only will remove trees in city-owned parkways and on other city property.

Ash trees are dying across the U.S. because of the emerald ash borer, an Asian insect purported to have arrived in cargo ships and airplanes in the 1990s.

While the adult beetles cause little damage to the trees by eating the ash foliage, their larvae feed on the inner bark of the trees and disrupt its ability to transport wa-

ter and nutrients, according to the emeraldashborer.info website.

“Once it comes into a community, it kills off the trees,” said Jack Linehan, assistant to the city administrator.

The green, metallic beetles are responsible for the death of tens of millions of ash trees in southeastern Michigan and tens of millions more in dozens of other Midwest and Eastern states, the emeraldashborer.info website stated.

City officials plans to replace ash trees.

Joe Cronin, city street supervisor, said city staff is working with a tree service to remove some of the ash trees in the north-central and south

areas of Lockport. City crews also are working to remove ash trees in newer subdivisions, such as Regency Point.

Ash trees are “spread pretty evenly throughout town,” he said.

Cronin said a street tree survey was done last year as a starting point for the ash tree removal program. While there will be some visual changes to the area once the trees are removed, they will not all be removed at once, he said.

According to the University of Illinois Extension, white and green ash trees are common species in the state. They can be identified by their foliage and bark. The ash tree will have oppositely arranged leaves on a twig, with 5 to 9 dark green leaflets. The young bark on the trees is flaky, with light gray to gray-brown colors.

If a resident is unsure if the dead tree in the parkway is an ash tree, they can place a work order on the city’s website at cityoflockport.net/node/226.

219 plots sold this year for Joliet community garden, up from 165 in 2012

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com

J

OLIET – Therese Stellato hasn’t just been growing vegetables for the past three years at the Joliet Park District’s Organic Community Garden, but friendships as well.

The Crest Hill resident enjoys the diverse group of gardeners she’s come to know over the years, from a South African native who plows big trenches in her plot with a pickaxe to another gardener who’s nicknamed after the state he is from, Mississippi.

Stellato has learned about organic gardening from these people, who come out to the 9-acre plot near the River Valley Justice Center in Joliet to grow food free of synthetic chemicals.

“It opens up my world,” she said about the garden.

“There is a lot of people – old timers, too – who garden for a lot of years. You can watch what good goes on there.”

More people are enjoying what the Joliet community garden has to offer. Since the park district’s garden opened three years ago, the number of plots sold grew from 165 in 2012 to 228 last year. This year about 219 plots were sold and potentially 900 more plots have yet to be used.

Many people come to the garden because of inadequate space in their own backyard. Kristen Bernier, the park district coordinator for the garden, said she thinks people also are becoming more aware of how food is produced.

“In the last few years, there was a slew of food movies and documentaries, and I think people are waking up to the idea of how food is grown,” Bernier said.

The Joliet community garden is along McDonough Street across from the Inwood

Golf Course. Full-sized plots are 10 feet by 20 feet, while half-sized ones are 10-by-10.

Residents can buy a full-sized plot for $50 or a half-sized plot for $25. Nonresidents pay $75 and $37.50, respectively, for each plot.

The community garden exists not only to provide a space for gardening but improve the quality of life in the city through healthy eating and donations to local food pantries.

“The ability to grow your own food and harvest your own food that you know what goes into it, that really helps with a healthy life style,” said Nancy Kuhajda, master gardener and extension program coordinator with University of Illinois Extension.

Kuhajda, who has been in-

volved with the park district program, said about half of the gardeners did not know how to use organic gardening methods when it started.

Several classes were offered to get people up to speed.

Because it is an organ-

ic garden, people are not allowed to use chemical fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides or herbicides. Rather than “spraying everything to death with chemicals,” people would need to approach their problems differently, Bernier

said.

Stellato tries to keep insects off her plants by growing Marigolds around her garden.

One of the most notable aspects of the Joliet garden is the incredible sense of community among the gardeners, Kuhajda said. It’s a community that also welcomes people with disabilities to garden, as well.

At the end of each growing season, usually in September, the gardeners have a fall harvest potluck where people bring dishes that use ingredients from the plants they grew.

“It is a salute to diversity and culture and age that people have developed great friendships over time,” Kuhajda said.

About 50 demonstrators protest plea deal in Hickory Street murders “I was infuriated when I heard that at first. That’s not really justice to me.”

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – About 50 people protested Thursday against a defendant’s plea deal in the Hickory Street murders.

The demonstration outside the Will County Courthouse followed Alisa R. Massaro’s plea last week in which she was sentenced to 10 years in prison on charges reduced from murder in exchange for agreeing to testify against the other three defendants in the case.

For about 45 minutes, demonstrators carried signs with Massaro’s mugshot taken when she was jailed and slogans that included, “No Plea for Murder” and “Premeditated murder ... 5 years. Where’s the justice?”

A few passing drivers honked in support while the rally began with a chorus of “We Shall Overcome” and a prayer asking for justice.

Massaro, 20, pleaded guilty to two counts of robbery and two counts of concealing a homicide on the condition she will testify against Joshua F. Miner, 25, Adam M. Landerman, 20, and Bethany McKee, 19, when they are tried on murder charges.

Massaro has already served about a year-and-a-half in jail and could have her time behind bars reduced further with good behavior.

“I was infuriated when I heard that at first. That’s not really justice to me,” said Niya King, who attended Joliet West High School with Terrence Rankins. King believes a black suspect who killed a white person would not have received such a lenient sentence.

On Jan. 10, 2013, the four suspects are accused of luring Eric Glover and Rankins, both 22, to Massaro’s home in the 1000 block of Hickory Street with plans to rob them

A tear falls down the eye of Lytierra Williams, sister of Eric Glover, during a protest Thursday outside the Will County Courthouse in Joliet. Family and friends of Glover and Terrance Rankins gathered to protest a plea deal prosecutors made with Alisa Manssaro to testify in the 2013 murder of the two young men.

Loved ones of Eric Glover and Terrance Rankins gather for a protest Thursday outside the Will County Courthouse in Joliet. of drugs and money. Glover and Rankins were strangled to death. Glover and Rankins were black and their accused slayers are white.

State’s Attorney spokesman Charles Pelkie said prosecutors discussed Massaro’s plea deal with the victims’ families before it was present-

ed to Judge Gerald Kinney.

“There is a very strong likelihood the statement Massaro made to police would’ve been suppressed prior to trial due to constitutional issues prior to trial,” Pelkie said. “Without her statement, it raised serious questions about the state’s ability to meet the bur-

den of proof beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Pelkie noted the plea deal secured Massaro’s testimony against the remaining cases.

The protest was organized by a “Facebook friend” of Glover’s sister, Lytierra Williams.

Williams attended the rally along with her mother, Nicole Jones, and Eric’s brother, Drakkar Williams, who pointed to a sign of Massaro’s mugshot.

“She’s smiling. You think she actually cared what happened,” Drakkar Williams asked. “Did anyone deserve this? Black or white? She’ll be out of prison in three years and I’ll never see my brother again.”

Nicole Jones said she doesn’t “understand the evil” that led to the death of her son and his friend.

Plea deals are not uncommon in murder cases involving multiple defendants with

varying degrees of involvement in the crime.

In a 2009 murder that involved four suspects accused in the robbery and murder of Joshua Terdic of Channahon, one of the defendants agreed to testify against the others in exchange for a lesser charge and an 11-year prison sentence.

The other defendants eventually were convicted and sentenced to more than 50 years in prison. The defendants and victim were all white in that case.

Greg Reeder, who has been a defense attorney for 14 years but is not involved in the Hickory Street case, said judging whether Massaro’s plea is too lenient should wait until the others are tried.

“If her testimony is crucial to securing conviction against the other defendants, then it is a fair deal. We have to see how the process plays out,” Reeder said.

All four suspects were initially charged with murder under the “theory of accountability” for conspiring to commit a crime that led to the victims’ deaths.

At Massaro’s sentencing, prosecutors said Miner and Landerman actually killed the victims, while Massaro and McKee helped set them up.

“As an attorney and an African-American, we want the justice system to work fairly,” Reeder said. “When we see the full pieces of the puzzle, we can [decide] if justice was done and color-blind.”

District 210 highlights 2013-14 achievements

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – Lincoln-Way High School District 210 officials say fierce winter weather and poor state funding didn’t stop the school district from having many successes this year.

School officials listed accomplishments in the 2013-14 school year during a recent school board meeting.

This year, the school district managed to save its Air Force ROTC program at reduced scale when enrollment declined.

However, they are losing four Scott Tingley teacher’s in the district’s fine arts department because of low enrollment in the classes they teach.

One of the biggest challenges to the school district this year was not only low state funding but the record winter weather, said Scott Tingley, district superintendent.

“I can’t remember the last time Lincoln-Way canceled school for four days,” he said.

The school district was able to conduct online field tests for the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, new standardized exams that students will begin taking next school year.

Stacy Holland, district community relations director, said school officials realized the school district’s bandwidth needed expansion along with improvements to its technology infrastructure, which was done last summer.

“We had to make those upgrades to handle all of our students being online and taking those tests at the same time,” she said.

The school district also has seen success in its world languages department, where students were the first recipients of the “Seal of Biliteracy,” in the state. Teacher Linda Egnatz was awarded national World Language Teacher of the Year, while department chairs were awarded a grant of roughly $21,000 to continue instructional strategies for teachers next school year.

Tingley said teachers in the district have never been the type to sit back.

“They thrive on professional development and they thrive on improvement in the classrooms,” he said.

In mathematics, Lincoln-Way officials created a district-wide committee to integrate Common Core state standards into the math curriculum. Tingley said the school district will not change the way it teaches math and will still prepare students for exams, such as the American College Testing exam.

Math teachers also plan to write their own textbooks for classes, which would pose significant savings for the district, he said.

Tingley said Lincoln-Way is in a good place academically even though low state funding remains a source of consternation. At a Lincoln-Way board meeting in March, school officials learned of the possibility of districts facing a lower rate of general state aid.

“We have to continue to be fiscally conservative,” he said.

Homer Junior High eighth-grader Meghana Kamineni spelled her words correctly Thursday in the semifinals, but didn’t make it to the 2014 Scripps National Spelling Bee finals.

Kamineni scored high enough in the preliminaries Wednesday to be selected for the semifinals, making it further than she did last year. But she fell two points short of the 62-point cutoff.

“My goal was to make it to the semifinals, so I’m pretty OK about that,” she said.

The semifinals consisted of three rounds. Round 4 was a computer-based exam, test-

ing spelling and vocab, while rounds 5 and 6 continued as a spelling bee.

Kamineni correctly spelled “periplus,” a voyage or trip around something, and “cachinnate,” to laugh very loudly, in rounds 5 and 6. But her round 4 semifinal exam score left her two points short.

“I got eliminated backstage,” Kamineni said. “I would have probably been disappointed if I got eliminated on stage, spelling. But I’m happy with it.”

This was Kamineni’s last spelling bee. But she is looking forward to pursuing other interests.

“I don’t know what’s next for me, but I’m pretty sure it involves math,” she said.

JOLIET – The Joliet Area/South Suburban Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority is going to have its hands full Saturday.

The group plans to “KISS” the community at least 100 times, honoring everyone from the homeless to veterans, and from emergency personnel to seniors.

“Because it’s our 40th year, we thought we would go back to where we started,” chapter President Carolyn Dishmon said. “So we’re specifically doing all our acts of kindness in Joliet.”

KISS is an acronym for Kindness in Service through Sisterhood, basically a random act of kindness, though the chapter’s plans are anything but random.

The group’s spreadsheet for Saturday details dozens of different activities: 17 acts of kindness at Presence Saint Joseph Hospital, 15 at Silver Cross Hospital and two each at Villa Franciscan Nursing Home, Sunny Hill Nursing Home and Comfort Keepers – just to name a few.

Sorority sisters will be at Easter Seals, Morning Star Mission, Joliet Animal Shelter, community centers, churches, the police

BOLINGBROOK – A Bolingbrook man is facing a felony charge for his alleged role in two armed robberies in the village.

Chillis W. Moultrie, 22, of 3 Parkside Drive, was charged with aggravated robbery with a firearm after he was arrested by Bolingbrook police at his home on Wednesday, according to a police news release.

Moultrie and another suspect still being sought by police allegedly robbed food delivery drivers in separate

lice said.

The second incident occurred within the same block as the first incident. A Chinese food delivery driver was robbed of money and his cellphone by two men around 8:30 p.m. May 22.

Neither victims were injured in the incidents.

The release said both incidents are still under investigation as police search for additional suspects.

Moultrie is being held on $175,000 bond at the Will County Adult Detention Facility.

Sheep rustler/prankster strikes again

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – It followed the Porters to school one day.

A young lamb was apparently stolen from a nearby sheep farm last week and left tied up in front of Lockport Township Central High School. Will County Sheriff’s Office believe the lamb-napping was a student prank.

Sheriff’s spokeswoman Kathy Hoffmeyer said there was a similar incident with a

sheep last fall.

In both cases the animals were stolen from a sheep farm in the 14100 block of 143rd Street in Homer Glen.

On May 15, a farmhand noticed a chain-link fence had been damaged and a white seven-week-old lamb was missing.

The lamb had orange spray paint on its head and hind legs and is valued at $125, according to reports.

Later that morning, the animal was discovered tied to a fence at the school. The

animal was unharmed and was returned to the farm.

School spokeswoman Kim Brehn said Thursday the administration was investigating whether any students could be identified for disciplinary action.

A senior picnic was held at the end of the following week, after Assistant Principal Tom Kurzawski, promised seniors he would organize the event if the school was “prank free” for the week, according to a news release from the district.

QUICK NEWS Pace increases service on Route 504 South Joliet JOLIET – Beginning June 9, Pace is set to double the frequency of midday service on Route 504 South Joliet from buses operating every 60 minutes to once every 30 minutes.

The additional bus service should improve public transit access to the Will County Health Department facility on Ella Avenue in Joliet, according to a news release from the county.

“We applaud Pace for listening to our residents’ requests,” Will County Executive Larry Walsh said in the news release. “This expanded route from Pace will offer people additional transportation to our community health center to receive the care they need.”

The additional weekday trips

start with a new 10:43 a.m. southbound departure from downtown Joliet and end with the arrival of the new northbound trip in downtown Joliet at 2:35 p.m. Service is unchanged before 10:43 a.m. and after 2:35 p.m.

New timetables will be printed and placed on buses soon.

Key destinations along Route 504 South Joliet include the Phillip Murray Complex, Sunny

Hill Nursing Home, Will County Courthouse, Ranch Plaza, Pheasant Run Apartments, the Primary Care Facility and Harrah’s Casino.

In downtown Joliet, the route connects to several other Pace routes, as well as Metra service on the Rock Island District line and the Heritage Corridor.

The base fare is $1.75 and up to two children ages 7 and younger ride free with each fare-paying

adult. Reduced fares and free ride programs are available to eligible customers through the Regional Transportation Authority.

No one injured in Wednesday fire in Joliet JOLIET – No one was home Wednesday when a fire started at a home in the 7600 block of Heatherstone Lane.

Lt. Fred Offermann said crews arrived shortly after 2:50 p.m. to see smoke and flames coming from the front windows but were able to extinguish the blaze quickly.

Offermann said the fire caused “moderate damage” to the house. The cause of the fire is under investigation but does not appear to be suspicious.

JOLIET TOWNSHIP – A woman was jailed twice during the weekend for allegedly fighting with Will County sheriff’s deputies on separate occasions.

Cathleen S. Chinderle, 46, 314 Schorie Ave., Joliet, was first arrested about 1:15 a.m. May 23 at Speedway, 436 S. Briggs St., ac- Cathleen S. cording to poChinderle lice reports.

A deputy was at the gas station and allegedly witnessed a “highly intoxicated” Chinderle become “belligerent and combative” inside. When an employee asked the deputy to eject Chinderle from the store, she grabbed the police radio on his uniform and took it, spokeswoman Kathy Hoffmeyer said.

Chinderle was arrested on a charge of criminal trespassing and taken to the Will County jail. She was released on a recognizance

bond at about 2:45 a.m. Friday.

At 5:10 a.m. May 23 deputies were called to a residence in the 300 block of Schorie Avenue where an “intoxicated and very combative” Chinderle was allegedly threatening to fight two East Joliet Fire Department paramedics.

Chinderle’s roommate told deputies he had heard her screaming in a locked bathroom but could not get her to respond and called 911.

Chinderle then pushed a deputy in the chest and was told she would be arrested for battery, Hoffmeyer said.

“She attempted to punch the deputy, who was able to avoid the punch and threw her to the bed. She continued to kick him while he attempted to handcuff her,” Hoffmeyer said.

Chinderle was placed in the back of a squad car and allegedly attempted to kick out the window.

She was booked into the county jail again on charges of battery, assault and resisting arrest and released on bond.

incidents on May 20 and May 22, police said.

In the first incident, two men pointed a gun at a pizza delivery driver around 10:56 p.m. May 20 in the 300 block of Drake and demanded the victim’s money, according to police. The two fled after Chillis W. removing $15 Moultrie from the victim’s pocket as well as the pizza and drinks the driver was delivering, po-

Proposed RTA bill advances Aims to increase oversight of mass-transit agencies

Forest Preserve District hosts native plant sale THE HERALD-NEWS

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com A measure aimed at bringing reform and accountability to Chicago’s mass-transit agencies is headed toward becoming law.

Senate Bill 3056, which cleared the House on a 113-0 vote last week, seeks to return more financial oversight power to the Regional Transportation Authority, which is the umbrella board for Metra, Pace and the Chicago Transit Authority. The bill, sponsored

by Sen. Daniel Biss, D-Evanston, also requires the boards to create an online portal similar to state government’s, so taxpayers can examine its expenditures and contracts for themselves.

State Rep. Mike Tryon, who had filed several House bills containing the reforms passed in the Senate bill, lauded their advancement. The House made minor changes that must first go back to the Senate for a concurrence vote before going to Gov. Pat Quinn.

The bill requires the RTA to review any bonus for any mass-transit employee in excess of 10 percent of annual salary, and requires Pace, Metra and the CTA to get RTA approval to give a severance agreement in excess of $50,000 or an employment-related settlement agreement in excess of $200,000. The agencies also must give proposed employment contracts greater than $100,000 to the RTA for review.

The RTA in turn must submit them to the House Mass Tran-

sit and Senate Transportation committees for their review.

Senate Bill 3056 cleared the Senate on a 51-0 vote on April 1, the same day a task force released a scathing indictment of Chicago-area mass transit, which it alleged was run by “a wasteful and often dysfunctional bureaucracy.”

The report concluded that state lawmakers in 1983 intentionally weakened much of the RTA’s oversight powers, essentially making Metra, Pace and the CTA independent authorities. A 2008 attempt to strengthen RTA oversight in the wake of a financial crisis and declining ridership did not go far enough, the report stated.

Two years later, a corruption scandal brought down Metra’s longtime executive director, and his replacement was forced out.

Former CEO Phil Pagano killed himself in 2010 near his rural Crystal Lake home by stepping in front of a Metra train hours before the Metra Board was set to fire him for collecting $475,000 in unauthorized vacation payouts and other fiscal irregularities. He was caught after it was discovered that he forged the former board president’s signature on at least two occasions to collect the payouts.

Pagano died owing Metra at least $127,000. Pagano never revealed why he skimmed the money, but his FBI file, released by the Better Government Association about the same time the task force released its report, indicated

he may have used the money to pay for extramarital affairs and for an ailing father.

The Metra Board brought in CEO Alex Clifford to help clean up the agency, but ousted him in 2013 with eight months remaining on his contract.

When pressed by angry state lawmakers about the potential $718,000 cost of the severance package, Clifford alleged he was forced out because he would not play along with patronage requests made by several Metra Board members at the behest of clout-heavy lawmakers.

Both scandals resulted in a number of resignations on the Metra Board. State law empowers only the Metra Board itself or the governor to remove members against their will, and only under restrictive circumstances.

As an example of how the RTA’s oversight was gutted, Tryon pointed out the reason why Senate Bill 3056 requires Metra, Pace and the CTA to provide immediate access to financial information. Under current law, the agencies have 30 days to report it to the RTA. A regular person is entitled under the Freedom of Information Act to obtain it in as little as five days.

“This is strong legislation that should help turn things around at the RTA and its service boards and help restore public trust in these agencies,” Tryon said.

Among the task force’s recommendations is to merge the three mass-transit boards into a single entity.

A detour route will be posted utilizing Richards Street, Jefferson Street (U.S. Route 30/Route 6), Collins Street (U.S. Route 30/Route 6), Cass

Street (U.S. Route 30), and Briggs Street.

Drivers are advised to exercise caution and seek alternate routes when traveling in the area.

For information, contact the City of Joliet Department of Public Works at 815-7244200.

In addition to native plants, the event will feature exhibitors and garden artisans.

Mike Nowak, host of “The Mike Nowak Show,” will make an appearance from 10 a.m. to noon.

Information will be available on rain gardens.

The Conservation Foundation will hose a rain barrel pickup from 9 to 11 a.m.

More than 100 species of native perennials, shrubs and trees grown by Possibility Place Nursery in Monee will be available for purchase.

According to the Forest Preserve District, native plants offer a welcoming environment for animals, birds and insects because they reduce the need for fertilizers, insecticides and fungicides.

House advances $1 billion capital bill

SPRINGFIELD – After an exceptionally harsh winter that damaged roads and bridges across the state, the Illinois House advanced a plan to fund $1 billion in new transportation projects that could begin as early as this summer.

The chamber’s approval of Chicago Democratic Rep. Luis Arroyo’s bill by a 97-11 vote came Thursday as lawmakers finished one of their final days of the spring legislative session and worked to finalize a 2015 budget.

Arroyo’s measure would fund what Transportation Secretary Ann Schneider told a committee was a series “shovel ready” road and bridge projects across the state. Members from both sides of the aisle said the work would create jobs and improve driving conditions throughout Illinois.

The capital project will be paid for by money that’s still coming in from a prior capital plan and then by paying back the loan with revenue from retired bonds.

The legislation now heads to the Senate, where it requires a three-fifth’s majority approval because it involves a bond sale.

The Senate also is considering a $35.7 billion proposed budget the House passed earlier in the week, a proposal Democratic lawmakers consider to be the best option since they were unable to muster enough votes to extend the income tax increase.

The Senate is expected to vote on the 2015 budget Friday. A plan to address Cook County’s underfunded pensions could also get a vote on the House floor.

$12.3M Medicaid benefits to dead

CHICAGO – An auditor’s report released Thursday

Illinois Sen. Dan Kotowski, D-Park Ridge, argues legislation while on the Senate floor during session Thursday at the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield.

provided new details about the Illinois Medicaid program’s overpayment of $12.3 million for medical care for 2,850 people who were dead.

One person who died in 1989 had payments of nearly $30,000 to providers for 816 dental, lab and hospital services from 2005 through 2013, state Auditor General William Holland’s report said.

That case and several others have been turned over by the state Medicaid agency to fraud investigators.

The Associated Press first reported on the overpayments last month, but the report provides a broader perspective on the scope of the problem. For instance, the report states 561 individuals were signed up for Medicaid managed care after their deaths – an average of 663 days, or nearly two years, afterward. The state paid monthly premiums totaling almost $7 million for those 561 people.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS study stated.

Guard in hot cell death has record of leaving post The study looks at past and NEW YORK – A jail guard investigators say left her post without permission as an inmate lay dying in his 101-degree cell had been disciplined four years earlier for a similar infraction, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.

Carol Lackner was accused in 2010 of leaving her post and leaving Rikers Island entirely without permission while working in a women’s section of the jail, according to the documents, obtained through a public records request.

That administrative charge was settled, her attorney says, when Lackner agreed to give up five vacation days. He said she was on a break when she left, which is nevertheless a policy violation.

More recently, Lackner was suspended for 30 days following the Feb. 15 death of 56-year-old mentally ill inmate Jerome Murdough. A city corrections investigation found she abandoned her post in a mental health observation unit 20 minutes before the homeless ex-Marine was discovered unresponsive in his overheated cell.

As Congress stands at an impasse on most major issues, it is waist deep in annual spending bills that offer lawmakers secondary opportunities to make policy.

Google employees work on their laptops May 30, 2007, at Google headquarters in Mountain View, Calif.

In a groundbreaking disclosure, Google revealed Wednesday how very white and male its workforce is only 2 percent of its Google employees are black, 3 percent are Hispanic and 30 percent are women.

Google steps up its efforts for more racial diversity The ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN JOSE, Calif. – Google has had more trouble diversifying its workforce than its computer scientists have had writing programs that respond to search requests in the blink of an eye or designing cars that can navigate traffic without a human behind the wheel.

That seemed to be the conclusion when the Silicon Valley giant this week issued a gender and ethnic breakdown of its workforce that showed that of its 26,600 U.S. employees, 61 percent are white, 30 percent Asian, 3 percent Hispanic and 2 percent black. Thirty percent of its employees are women.

“Google is miles from where we want to be,” said Laszlo Bock, head of personnel at Google.

Why is one of the most innovative, dynamic sectors of the U.S. economy looking like the corporate world of the past, at least when it comes to blacks, Hispanics and women?

The biggest factor is a shortage of such students majoring in computer sci-

ence or other technical fields in college, according to Bock.

“There is an absolute pipeline problem,” he said in an interview Wednesday with “PBS Newshour.”

One year, Google says, there were just two black people in the U.S. with newly minted doctorates in computer science on the job market.

The company hired one of them, and Microsoft hired the other, according to Bock.

But the educational choices of some minorities don’t entirely account for the lack of diversity at technology companies.

For instance, Google sells $50 billion in advertising annually, a task that required more than 2,900 salespeople in the U.S. as of last August.

Just 79 of them, or 3 percent, were black. A total of 127, or 4 percent, were Hispanic.

More than 2,000, or about 70 percent, were white.

Google attributes this phenomenon to “unconscious biases” that have historically favored white people. “We like people who are like us, who watch the same shows, who like the same food, who have the same backgrounds,”

Bock told PBS. To address this issue, Google has put more than 20,000 employees through 90-minute training sessions during the past year to help them become more aware of their biases.

Google is also trying to do more recruiting at colleges with large minority enrollments. During the past year, Google has dispatched a specialist to work with historically black Howard University to draw up a curriculum that will give its graduates a better chance of competing for technology jobs against the likes of MIT. The program will be extended to five other colleges this fall.

Google is just one of many high-tech companies that are pledging to diversify their workforces this spring under pressure from the Rev. Jesse Jackson. But the same promises were made in the Silicon Valley 15 years ago, again under pressure from the civil rights leader. That effort included a conference, a new website, commitments from top firms, and a call to educate and employ 200,000 young people.

Support falters as Shinseki fights for job

By MATTHEW DALY The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Support for embattled Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki eroded quickly Thursday, especially among congressional Democrats facing tough re-election campaigns, even as Shinseki continued to fight for his job amid allegations of delayed medical care and misconduct at VA facilities nationwide.

Shinseki spoke privately with lawmakers and met with nearly two dozen veterans groups, assuring them that he takes the reports seriously and is moving swiftly to fix problems. On Friday, he is to address the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans, outlining his plans for corrections.

A federal investigation of operations in the troubled Phoenix VA Health Care System found that about 1,700 veterans in need of care were “at risk of being lost or forgotten” after being kept off an official waiting list.

While initially focused on Phoenix, the investigation described Wednesday by the VA Department’s inspector general found broad and deep-seated problems in the

AP file photo

Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki testifies May 15 on Capitol Hill in Washington. sprawling health care system, which provides medical care to about 6.5 million veterans annually.

The interim report confirmed earlier allegations of excessive waiting times for care in Phoenix, with an average 115-day wait for a first appointment for those on the waiting list – almost five times as long as the 24-day average the hospital had reported.

House Speaker John Boehner and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said they were reserving judgment

about Shinseki. But with the situation threatening to affect congressional elections in November, the chorus of lawmakers calling for his departure grew by the hour.

Democratic Sens. Mark Warner and Tim Kaine of Virginia, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, Jeff Merkley of Oregon and New Mexico’s Tom Udall and Martin Heinrich all urged Shinseki to step aside. Eleven Senate Democrats have called for Shinseki’s resignation since Wednesday, when the VA inspector general report

came out. All but Kaine and Heinrich are on the ballot this fall.

White House press secretary Jay Carney declined to say whether President Barack Obama still has full confidence in Shinseki, who has led the VA since the start of the Obama administration.

The president is waiting for a full investigation into the VA before deciding who should be held accountable, Carney said.

Rep. Steve Israel, the New York Democrat who chairs the party’s campaign committee in the House, called for a criminal investigation by the Justice Department and said of Shinseki, “If his resignation is what it takes to fix the problem, then yes, he should resign.”

And Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate, said that while he respects Shinseki, a former four-star Army general who served in Vietnam, the IG’s report “does really move us closer to that point where we have to question his leadership.”

Durbin told radio station WGLT in Normal, Illinois: “If this is what I think it is, it could mean we need new leadership.”

The American Legion and dozens of Republicans have called for Shinseki to resign, including Rep. Jeff Miller of Florida, chairman of the House Veterans Affairs Committee, and Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina, senior Republican on the Senate veterans panel. Arizona’s two Republican senators, John McCain and Jeff Flake, also have called for Shinseki to step down.

The congressional calls for Shinseki’s resignation were mixed with criticism of a bonus system at the VA that has rewarded officials for meeting performance targets that proved to be unreasonable, including a maximum two-week waiting period for first-time appointments.

VA guidelines state veterans should be seen within 14 days of their desired date for a primary care appointment.

Lawmakers have called that target unrealistic and said basing employee bonuses and pay raises on it is outrageous. The target encourages employees to “game” the appointment system in order to collect bonuses based on ontime performance, lawmakers from both parties said at a House hearing late Wednesday on the VA mess.

CIA winds down drone strike program in Pakistan

By KEN DILANIAN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The CIA’s targeted killing program in Pakistan, once the mainstay of President Barack Obama’s counterterrorism effort, is winding down.

Because of stricter rules, diplomatic sensitivities and the changing nature of the al-Qaida threat, there hasn’t been a U.S. drone strike in Pakistan’s tribal areas since Christmas.

And American officials say opportunities for drone attacks will dwindle further as the CIA and the military draw down in neighboring Afghanistan, reducing their intelligence-gathering footprint.

“The program (in Pakistan) appears to have ended,” said

Peter Bergen, who has closely studied drone strikes for the New America Foundation, a Washington think tank.

U.S. officials won’t go that far, but Obama announced this week a plan to pull nearly all American troops out of Afghanistan by the end of 2016.

The targeted killing program in Pakistan relies on drones flown from, and intelligence gathered in, U.S. bases in Afghanistan that would then be closed.

In a major foreign policy speech at the U.S. Military Academy Wednesday, Obama said the U.S. would continue to carry out occasional drone strikes against terrorist targets, but he cited Yemen and Somalia, not Pakistan, where Hellfire missiles once rained down at a rate of two a week.

Armed U.S. drones are still flying over Pakistan’s tribal areas, and CIA targeting officers are still nominating militants to the kill list, according to U.S. officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the covert program publicly. But over the last five months, no missiles have been fired.

Several factors are driving the change, U.S. officials say.

Many of the senior al-Qaida figures in Pakistan have been killed.

Those who remain are much harder to target because they are avoiding mobile phones and traveling with children, benefiting from stricter targeting rules designed to prevent civilian casualties.

The drawdown of U.S. troops from Afghanistan has eliminated the need for “force protection” strikes against large gatherings of militants in Pakistan suspected of plotting attacks against American troops.

Also, the tribal areas of Pakistan are no longer the hotbed of al-Qaida activity they once were. Hard core militants from Pakistan have gone to Syria and Yemen, home to Al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, which U.S. officials consider the most dangerous al-Qaida affiliate.

And Obama administration officials are pushing to have the U.S. military, not the CIA, carry out drone strikes.

Since the military generally requires permission from a country to operate on its ter-

ritory, most analysts don’t believe it could carry out regular drone attacks in Pakistan.

The CIA and the White House declined to comment.

For as long as they are able to fly over Pakistan, CIA drones will hunt for senior al-Qaida figures, including Ayman al-Zawahri, the group’s leader, U.S. officials say. If the agency gets a clean shot at such a target next week or next year, it will push the button, officials say.

But as the CIA closes its remote Afghanistan outposts where case officers met with Pakistani sources and technicians eavesdropped on cell phones, intelligence collection will dry up, making militants harder to track and hit without harming noncombatants.

Q: If the pings were not from the plane, how does that affect the search?

A: Given that the head of the search operation, Angus Houston, once dubbed the pings the “most promising lead” in the hunt for Flight 370, a determination that they were unrelated would be a huge disappointment. But it wouldn’t change the direction of the search. Officials have already been planning to move beyond the search area centered on the pings to a far larger search zone, which was calculated based on an analysis of satellite data. That plan remains in place.

Q: Why is no one searching for the plane now, and when will the search resume?

A: The Bluefin 21, the unmanned sub that scoured the ocean floor for several weeks, finished its search Wednesday. Officials now must find a vessel that can go even deeper than the Bluefin to survey the expanded search zone, parts of which have never been mapped and where the maximum depth remains a mystery. Officials must organize contracts for the new equipment with a private company. The Joint Agency

Q: How big is the search area now, and how long will it take for the new equipment to cover it?

A: The search area 21,600 square miles. Officials say it will take up to a year for the new equipment to thoroughly search the area.

Q: What has been done, and will be done, for the families of the missing passengers?

A: Malaysia Airlines paid for family members to stay at hotels in Malaysia and China while they waited for news of the plane. Families also were given logistical and financial assistance, as well as individual caregivers for counseling and support. In early May, the assistance centers were shut down and family members were told to leave. The airline said it will keep in close touch with the families on news updates, though some family members say this has not been the case.

The airline has made advanced compensation payments to some families, but declined to reveal details. It has said such payments will not affect the rights of the next-of-kin to claim compensation according to the law at a later stage, and will be calculated as part of the final compensation.

BANGKOK – More than 1,000 Thai troops and police sealed off one of Bangkok’s busiest intersections Thursday to prevent a planned protest, as authorities said they would no longer allow any demonstrations against last week’s military coup.

Truckloads of soldiers blocked all incoming roads to the capital’s Victory Monument in a massive show of force at the height of evening rush hour in an area that serves as one of the city’s commuter bus hubs.

More than a dozen police prisoner trucks were parked along the emptied roundabout, but there was little sign of protesters, who have

Rebels shoot down helicopter in Ukraine The ASSOCIATED PRESS SLOVYANSK, Ukraine – In another devastating blow to Ukraine’s armed forces, rebels shot down a troop helicopter Thursday, killing at least 12 soldiers, including a general who had served in the Soviet army and was in charge of combat training.

The loss underscored the challenge Ukrainian forces face in fighting a guerrilla-style insurgency that has proven to be an agile foe.

nounced that President-elect Petro Poroshenko will be sworn in June 7, less than two weeks after his overwhelming victory in special balloting that was hoped would ease tensions in the deeply divided country. Poroshenko has promised to negotiate with representatives in rebellious eastern Ukraine but also has vowed to uproot the pro-Moscow rebels who want the re-

gion to join Russia.

The Mi-8 helicopter was downed on the outskirts of Slovyansk by rebels using a portable air defense missile, according to Oleksandr Turchynov, Ukraine’s acting president, in remarks to parliament in Kiev.

Slovyansk, a city of 120,000 people, has become a focal point for the insurgency and has for weeks been encircled

by Ukrainian troops.

SYDNEY – Thursday marked a bleak moment for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.

For the first time since it disappeared March 8 with 239 people on board, no one is looking for it.

An unmanned sub that spent weeks scouring the area of the Indian Ocean where searchers had detected acoustic signals they hoped were from the aircraft finished its work Wednesday, after finding nothing. Australian officials leading the search acknowledged that the area can be ruled out as the aircraft’s final resting place.

A civilian expert with the U.S. Navy told CNN that the “pings,” detected about a month after Flight 370 disappeared, probably were not from the jet. A Navy spokesman later said the comments were premature.

Here are details about where the search stands:

Coordination Center, which is heading up the search effort, said the new search involving powerful towed side-scan commercial sonar equipment will begin in August.

but protesters had planned to gather Thursday and called for a mass rally on Sunday.

Gen. Somyot Poompanmoung, the deputy national police chief, said the small protests would no longer be allowed. He said nine companies of soldiers and police – about 1,350 – were deployed in Thursday’s operation.

“We know their rally is mainly for symbolic reasons, but it’s against the law,” he said. “We have to keep the law sacred.”

Somyot warned if protesters change their tactics, “we are ready to tackle that.”

Earlier, in another part of the city, about 100 students held an anti-coup protest on the campus of prestigious Thammasat University, which ended peacefully.

Thumbs up to honoring those in service The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs up: to all of those who turned out Wednesday to honor Marine Lance Cpl. Steven Hancock, a 2011 graduate of Coal City High School, who died last week after falling from an aircraft during a training flight in North Carolina. Hundreds of people, holding American flags, lined the streets of Morris as the hearse carrying Hancock headed toward U.C. Davis – Callahan Funeral Home. Police and fire personnel, as well as the Illinois Patriot Guard and the Leatherneck Motorcycle Club, escorted the Hancock family from O’Hare Airport to Morris. It was a fitting tribute to a young man who dedicated his life to military service.

Thumbs up: to Jacqueline Rosinski of New Lenox, longtime volunteers – along with her three daughters – for the American Cancer Society Frankfort Mokena Relay For Life. Rosinski’s recent breast cancer diagnosis and treatments didn’t change her resolve; it nudged her to the next level.

Rosinski decided to form a 100 member team and she has met that goal.

She’s now focused on raising $20,000 for the ACS. Why this commitment?

To give back to the organization that helped Rosinski’s mother when she had lung cancer many years ago. Now that’s gratitude and dedication.

Thumbs down: to the Forest Preserve District of Will County for issuing a citation to a woman after her Facebook posting suggested she may have gone into a dog park without a permit. Give credit, however, to the Forest Preserve District for dropping the citation and admitting it was a bad idea after the matter got media attention and criticism from Forest Preserve Commissioner Steve Balich. Still, the wording of the Facebook posting suggests that the forest preserve police officer misread it anyway. And, if it’s that easy to be

THE FIRST AMENDMENT

Time to go back in order to go forward In almost every period of our history, the national focus has been on the future. The debate about slavery was about the preservation or the abolition of the peculiar institution, not about its origins. The debate about civil rights was about the prerogatives of blacks in a changing nation, not about the roots of prejudice. The debate about Vietnam was about whether the country’s fall to communism would trigger the fall of other Asian dominoes, not about America’s legacy of involvement in the East.

Which is why this is such an extraordinary moment in our national life. For the country in recent weeks has been engaged in three unusual debates, focused not on a misty future but on a cloudy past, designed not to shape the years to come but to understand years gone by. This is a distinctly un-American impulse, and yet this is a peculiarly American passage, a pause to examine our most fateful pathways and to evaluate our

National perspective David M. Shribman most cherished mythologies.

This is a moment that comes as the affirmative-action doctrine that has governed admission to the nation’s most selective colleges and professional schools is being rethought, as the nation’s response to the fall of the Soviet bloc is being reassessed, and as the presidencies of both President Bushes are being reappraised.

But standing out amid all these re-evaluations are three other, critical undertakings in reanalysis, serious reassessments that are not mere academic exercises but are instead vital examinations that will, even as they look back, guide Americans as they move forward.

Here are the old questions, full of

new implications, which are being asked by policymakers and voters alike: • How did we get into this irrational situation with medical care, where health insurance is tied to employment?

No one designing a health-care system for a post-industrial nation of enormous wealth and with some of the most advanced medical facilities in the world would tie the health of its citizens to the employment of its citizens. And, in fact, no one did. It just developed that way, the result of efforts to improve the quality of life of workers’ families without providing wage hikes and without exposing their improved circumstances to increases in their tax bills.

It was, for a time, a great boon, especially to unionized workers in the manufacturing sector, and also to hospitals and physicians, but in

record, his argument based on his claim that 7.7 million emerged from poverty during his administration – 100 times as many, he suggested, than during the Reagan years.

Historians have long debated how to parcel out credit and blame for economic booms and declines – a debate of particular interest to Bill Clinton, who may have been elected because of economic distress during the George H.W. Bush administration and who may have profited, at least in the beginning, from a recovery that gathered force at the end of the Bush administration but took form after he was inaugurated. The mere act of typing that sentence will, of course spawn a long and bitter debate, with pugilists taking positions that are completely predictable and also completely self-serving.

That debate will never be concluded to anyone’s satisfaction, but the reason why the debate began in the first place is of vital importance. It underlines the significance – in the Clinton years, at the end of the Obama years and at the beginning of the 45th presidency – of the issue of inequality.

By the time the 2016 campaign begins, Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and French economist Thomas Piketty, both of whose books are spawning vigorous debates this spring, won’t be the only ones talking about inequality.

Downtown Plainfield – Historic, inviting and family friendly SPONSORED BY

Recently named to the National Register of Historic Places, Plainfield is one of only 15 downtowns in the state of Illinois to be awarded the prestigious designation.

Thanks to the village’s ardent historic preservation commission, visitors can learn firsthand about Plainfield’s architecture and history by taking a walking tour of the downtown. Brochures are available, but if you have a smartphone, your tour will be even easier, as the commission made it possible to access information on each historic building by scanning its individual QR code.

When the village underwent a huge growth period -- its population has increased tenfold since 1990 -- the downtown became an even more important part of the community.

One result was a pedestrian-friendly downtown streetscape project, completed in 2009, inviting residents and visitors to enjoy wider sidewalks, seat walls, raised intersections and beautiful landscaping.

Its historic buildings house not only businesses, but also unique shops and restaurants,

many of which can now offer al fresco dining, thanks to increased sidewalk space. Beyond its impressive architecture, however, Plainfield offers several recreational opportunities. With its unique location along the DuPage River, the village is also in the planning stages of a riverwalk development, designed to harken back to an era when Plainfield was a destination for tourists, leisure-seekers and anyone hoping for respite and relaxation The downtown hosts annual and seasonal events, races and even parades, and Settlers’ Park, located behind the village hall, is a site for many events and activities, including its family-focused summer movies-in-the-park series. Settlers Park also features a playground, a lake for fishing and an amphitheater for concerts.

History buffs might also be interested in knowing that Plainfield is the crossroads of Route 66 and the Lincoln Highway. Whether its history, architecture, or just plain old fun, historic downtown Plainfield is a destination for shopping, dining and ongoing activities and events throughout the year.

time it warped the job market and distorted the medical world, which increasingly became dependent on insurance reimbursements, rather than direct patient fees.

This situation led to a generations-long cry for national health insurance, which in turn has reopened the question of tying medical care to employment. Now, under Obamacare, many businesses are evaluating whether they ought to offer health insurance at all, instead considering whether they ought to provide a stipend for their workers to purchase their own plans in the new exchanges – perhaps offering more choice, an important value on the right (which argues for choice in schools) and on the left (which argues for choice in abortion).

• Did the War on Poverty really help reduce poverty?

This is one of those debates whose answers lie in the lies statistics tell. If the debaters sit on the right, they argue that the Johnson-era anti-poverty programs created a culture of dependency, undermining the dignity and family structures of the poor. If they sit on the left, they argue the programs ameliorated poverty and limited its spread. Defying stereotypes exactly 40 years ago, Gary Hart, a Democrat then running for the Senate for the first time, said the War on Poverty raised “the expectations, but not the living conditions, of the poor.”

Spending on programs

employing an income test – providing proportionately more to the poor than to others – now represent about one out of every $6 of federal expenditures. Those on the right argue that official statistics indicate that the number of poor has increased or at best remained constant since 1964, despite billions of dollars of spending. But Bruce Meyer of the University of Chicago and James Sullivan of Notre Dame argue that poverty has fallen by 12.5 percent.

This is more than a debate for scholars and ideologues; its answer will give shape to future budgets. House Budget Committee chairman Paul Ryan argues that 92 anti-poverty programs costing about $800 billion offer the poor an incentive not to increase their income. A half-century later, the disagreements continue.

• Was Bill Clinton an effective economic steward?

On the surface, this seems like a pointless debate, Clinton being a former president more than a dozen years out of office. But it may not be pointless, and not because his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, is contemplating a presidential campaign of her own. (It may be convenient to expect that Hillary Clinton’s economic policies will mirror those of her husband’s, but the world of 2017 will bear little resemblance to the world of 1993.

Hillary Clinton’s outlook may bear little resemblance to Bill Clinton’s.)

This month, the former president embarked on an effort to polish his economic

Lincoln-Way West’s Luke Morgan delivers a pitch during the first inning of Thursday’s regional semifinal game against Joliet Catholic at Joliet Catholic Academy. Lincoln-Way West defeated JCA, 3-1.

Joliet Catholic’s Mitch Boe dives for the ball during the sixth inning of Thursday’s game.

The Hilltoppers scored a run on two wild pitches around a throw to first on a dropped third strike, and Rylan Bannon singled through

the hole at short after two strikeouts to end the combined no-hitter. Dalesandro flied out to tight fielder Zach Speaker to end it.

Morgan walked three batters in the fifth inning, but shortstop Adam Knerr started a huge inning-ending double play.

In the sixth, JCA loaded the bases on two hit batsmen and a walk.

First baseman Dan Brokop made a sprawling save of a wide attempted pickoff throw and probably saved two runs, then made a backhanded stab of Danny Weis’ one-hopper and touched first to end the inning.

Morgan finished with five walks, two hit batsmen and five strikeouts.

“We got guys on base, but you’ve got to get a hit,” JCA coach Jared Voss said. “We get our first hit in the seventh inning. [Morgan] walked some guys, we got guys on but

JOLIET – Lincoln-Way West has scored many big baseball victories in its five years of existence.

But for an opening game of a regional, it never will get any better.

The Warriors fired the first salvo in the remarkably strong Class 3A Joliet Catholic Regional semifinal, knocking off the defending Class 3A champion Hilltoppers, 3-1, Thursday before a huge crowd gathered around Gillespie Field.

Their reward is a 10 a.m.

Saturday matchup against the No. 1 regional seed, Lemont, and ace left-hander Jake Latz.

“An emotional game like this, in this kind of setting, you feel like it should at least be for a regional championship,” West coach Jake Zajc said. “But now we have to face Lemont and Latz.”

Of course, this regional deals with nothing but aces.

Junior right-hander Nick Dalesandro started for No. 3 seed JCA (28-8) and was touched for single runs in the first and second innings as No. 2 West (30-6) provided senior right-hander Luke Morgan with a working margin.

All Morgan did was spin a no-hit shutout through six innings.

But when John Kalisik walked leading off the top of the seventh, Zajc removed Morgan after 107 pitches. He took over at his normal shortstop position, and left-hander Ben Francis relieved.

we couldn’t get a hit.”

Speaker, in his first week of hitting leadoff, started the bottom of the first on a double to left-center and scored on Brokop’s two-out single for a 1-0 lead. Brokop added a second hit and scored an insurance run in the sixth.

“Tuesday was the first time I led off,” Speaker said.

“I’ve been getting on base, so why not? Once we got the early lead, we knew we could get them.”

“Zach’s always on base,” Zajc explained. “He’s an exciting player to watch. He got us off to a great start with the double.”

“My job was to not try to do too much, just put the ball in play,” Brokop said of his day at the plate.

Jake Robbins made a similar splash leading off the bottom of the second, pulling a Dalesandro fastball into the right-field corner for a triple.

Jake Mahy followed with a double to left-center for a 2-0 Warriors lead.

“We knew they had a great pitcher, I was looking for a fastball,” Robbins said of his triple. “I didn’t want to get deep in the count.”

Robbins also delivered a sacrifice fly off reliever Danny Ehrsam in the sixth to make it 3-0.

The Hilltoppers, who last weekend made an impressive runner-up finish in the Bajenski Memorial Tournament, tried to pull some late magic, but the Warriors met the challenge.

“We had big wins over [Providence right-hander Jake] Godfrey and over St. Rita last week,” Voss said.

“They [Warriors] beat us here. It all evens itself out.”

Lincoln-Way West belongs with the best Lincoln-Way West’s Jake Robbins hits a triple during the second inning of Thursday’s regional semifinal game against Joliet Catholic at Joliet Catholic Academy.

Lincoln-Way West won, 3-1, advancing them to the regional final against Lemont.

VIEWS Dick Goss Two years ago, Lincoln-Way West freshman right-hander Steve Skolarz shut out Joliet Catholic in a sectional semifinal.

That sent shock waves through the high school baseball nation. Those Hilltoppers were rated a state title threat, and rightfully so. Yet they were blanked by a freshman?

OK, that one was an upset.

But there was no shock in West’s 3-1 win over JCA on Thursday afternoon at Gillespie Field.

We said it as soon as regional assignments were announced. Any of Lemont, Lincoln-Way West or JCA could win what undoubtedly is the state’s strongest 3A regional. It will be a shame if this regional winner is not playing in the state finals June 13 and 14 at Silver Cross Field.

Lemont owns the coveted No. 1 seed and will face No. 2 West in Saturday morning’s regional championship.

With Louisiana State-bound left-hander Jake Latz ready to take the ball for Lemont,

Lathan Goumas – lgoumas@shawmedia.com

the Indians are the favorite regardless of which of the Warriors’ solid staff of pitchers coach Jake Zajc decides to start.

However, there also was a feeling in the crowd gathered at Gillespie Field that No. 3 JCA, perhaps partially because of the familiar surroundings, was the favorite.

I’ll say it again, any matchup with two of Lemont, West and JCA involved is worthy of a state championship game.

Two of them met in a regional semifinal, and two will face off Saturday.

We can talk ad nauseam

about the wisdom of putting three teams of this caliber in the same regional, but that’s the way it is.

Meanwhile, don’t sell West short. I’ve watched kids like Zach Speaker, Dan Brokop and Jake Robbins often enough in football and baseball to understand what they are about. They know how to win.

And how about senior right-hander Luke Morgan, who took a no-hitter into the seventh inning Thursday. He is headed to South Alabama as a shortstop, which is where he spent the rest of the inning

after walking the leadoff hitter in the seventh.

“I was out of gas in the fifth and sixth innings, but fortunately I had a no-hitter going and coach [Zajc] didn’t want to take me out,” Morgan said. “I can understand why he did, but I wasn’t happy.

That probably was my last time pitching in high school.

A no-hitter would have been a dream come true.”

Morgan was the closer most of the season, a starter only recently. In 42 innings, he has allowed three earned runs and yielded 12 hits and 15 walks while striking out 54.

Those numbers may make the Hilltoppers feel a little better about their fate.

“This was the best game for the first round,” Robbins said.

“We were loose and motivated. There’s always a certain confidence when Luke is on the mound. He is counted on big.”

West not figure to score much Saturday against Latz, who is yet to allow an earned run in 2014.

“I played with Latz my whole life,” Morgan said. “He is good, very good.”

However, the Warriors’ staff may not be easy to score on, either. They may feel a bit under-appreciated. They have yielded 67 total runs in 36 games yet have flown under the radar.

Richard Yelnick is 5-0 has not allowed an earned run in 37 innings. Ben Francis, who got the save Thursday, is 5-0 and has yielded five earned in 382⁄3 innings. Skolarz has returned to the mound in the second half of the season and allowed nine earned runs in 27 innings.

The more you analyze Saturday’s matchup, the better it gets.

It would have been the same had JCA been involved.

WILD THINGS 4, SLAMMERS 3

Ratajczak, Wild Things edge Slammers; complete sweep

By STEVE MILLAR Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – Nick Ratajczak’s first professional RBI was one he won’t soon forget.

The former Joliet Catholic star drove in the game-winning run Thursday night with an infield single in the sixth inning to help the Washington Wild Things knock off his hometown Slammers, 4-3, and complete a three-game sweep at Silver Cross Field.

“I haven’t been swinging the bat the way I want to, but I felt relaxed and comfortable [Thursday],” Ratajczak said.

“My first RBI, this is a great place to do it.”

It was far from the hardest

he’s ever hit a ball, but it got the job done. With a runner at third and two outs, Ratajczak sent a slow roller up the middle off Joliet reliever Santo Manzanillo (0-1).

Second baseman Danny Hernandez made a nice play, but his throw short-hopped first baseman Adam Giacalone, who couldn’t scoop it, allowing the run to score and give the Wild Things (8-4) a 4-3 lead. “[Manzanillo] had good velocity and I just tried to get the bat on the ball and not do too much,” Ratajczak said. “It worked out.”

Joliet (5-7) loaded the bases with one out in the ninth, but Jonathan Kountis got Hernan-

dez to foul out and Bill Miller to fly out to end it.

Slammers manager Jeff Isom was ejected after arguing that Hernandez’s pop up hit the net behind home plate before being caught by catcher Maxx Garrett.

Joliet had just one hit through three innings against Washington starter Chris Phelan and trailed 2-0, but broke through with three runs in the fourth.

Grant DeBruin singled and Giacalone walked to start the rally. With two outs, Hernandez crushed a triple off the wall in left-center field to drive them both in. Miller then singled in Hernandez to give the Slammers the lead.

It was short-lived, however, as Ratajczak started a Washington rally in the fifth with a single. After Daniel Poma followed with a ground-rule double, Slammers starter Matt Dillon struck out Garrett Rau for the second out and seemed well-positioned to get out of the jam.

Dillon, however, walked C.J. Beatty to load the bases, then walked Stewart Ijames on a full-count pitch to force in the tying run. Dillon did get Carter Bell to pop up to strand the bases loaded and limit further damage.

That was the last batter Dillon faced as he took a no-decision, allowing three runs (two earned) on four hits over five

innings. He struck out five and walked two.

Washington, which rallied with three runs in the seventh and final inning Wednesday for a 3-2 win and a doubleheader sweep, picked up right where they left off against Joliet.

The Wild Things scored twice in the first as Dillon got off to an inauspicious start, hitting leadoff hitter Poma with an 0-2 pitch. Poma moved to second on a sacrifice bunt, stole third and scored on Beatty’s sacrifice fly.

Joliet center fielder Darian Sandford then dropped Ijames’ fly ball, allowing Ijames to reach second and score on Bell’s base hit to make it 2-0.

BOYS STATE TRACK AND FIELD PREVIEW

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com

“We’re definitely heading down to Charleston with the hopes of returning with a trophy. It will be tough because there is a fantastic field this season.”

Nick Lundin Minooka boys track and field coach posting some very exciting times at sectionals, we look forward to seeing what he can do on the big blue oval at Charleston.”

Plainfield East qualified in seven events with its 4x200 relay having the state’s best sectional time. Shederick Majors ranked second in the 100 while Joseph Suarez turned in the fourth-best 3,200.

Plainfield South’s Dan L a t h r o p p o s t e d t h e s e cond-best sectional time in the 3,200, while its 4x800 relay also had a top 10 sectional effort.

Providence’s Mike Monroe had the state’s best high jump at the sectional while Andy Jatis ranked second only to Winder in the pole vault.

Other athletes with top 10 sectional showings were Bolingbrook’s Joshua Collins (100) and John Hall (long jump); Joliet Central’s Favio Nunez (discus); Joliet West’s 4x200 relay; Lincoln-Way East’s Anthony Colangelo (high jump) and Austin Co-

rydon (110 hurdles); Plainfield North’s Manny Bofah (high jump) and Annile Williams (300 hurdles); and Romeoville’s Kelvin Jones (discus) and Curshaun Pruitt (triple jump).

Beside Winder, others who earned all-state honors last

year included Monroe in the high jump (second), Corydon in the 110 hurdles (sixth) and Nunez in discus (seventh), while both Lathrop (3,200) and Bofah (high jump) came up one spot shy of claiming medals.

In Thursday’s Class 1A preliminaries, which were briefly suspended because of lightning, one individual and two relays advanced to Saturday’s finals. Seneca’s Tommy Lovett turned in the fastest time in the 110 hurdles (14.97) while Dwight’s 4x800 (8:11.93) and 4x400 (3:27.22) relays both moved on.

The Minooka boys track and field team has enjoyed a memorable season and now coach Nick Lundin’s squad hopes to finish it off with a bang.

The Indians have won all of their major outdoor meets, other than the first one at Belleville West, where they placed second to Class 2A power Cahokia.

So, after qualifying in eight events for this weekend’s IHSA Class 3A finals in Charleston, Minooka hopes not only to beat its previous-best large-school state showing (ninth place, 24 points in 2011), but to also contend for a state trophy with a top-three finish.

“We’re definitely heading down to Charleston with the hopes of returning with a trophy,” Lundin said. “It will be tough because there is a fantastic field this season. We truly believe that each of our eight events have an opportunity to qualify to the finals on Saturday and if we can do that, we are in great shape.

The state meet should be a lot of fun.”

Chris Wilson had the best time after sectional competition of all of his teammates, ranking second in the 400-me-

ter dash. Shabari Bailey (110 hurdles) and Peter Andreano (high jump) also ranked among the top 10 in their events, as is the Indians’ 4x200 relay.

Although it has three qualifiers entered in four events, Plainfield Central also had a good chance of recording its best finish, bettering its eighth place effort and 20 points in 2003.

Luke Winder is the clear favorite to repeat as champion in the pole vault, while Kahmari Montgomery had the best sectional time in the 400 and also one of the top 200 showings. Also, John Principato went to state as a sophomore on a relay and just missed making it individually last year, so he hopes to medal in the 800.

“After winning the state championship in the pole vault last year, Luke has truly had a magical year,” Wildcats coach Jon Pereiro said.

“He has set the state overall outdoor record in the pole vault with a jump of 17-3.75 at our Hunt Invitational and has his sights set on a new personal best down at state this year.

“Through hard work and dedication to his season plan, Kahmari has placed himself at the top of the state in each of his qualifying events. After

Four area teams ready for sectional showdowns

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com The IHSA boys volleyball finals won’t be taking place on Chicago’s Southwest Side Friday and Tuesday, it only seems that way.

The state’s top three squads will be on hand for the competition, the Marist Sectional, which merely qualifies one of the four teams to next weekend’s finals in Hoffman Estates.

Top-ranked Lincoln-Way East (36-1) will play darkhorse Lincoln-Way Central (24-13) in a 6:30 p.m. semifinal, while second-ranked Brother Rice (35-2) faces third-ranked Lincoln-Way North (33-4) right after that.

The finals are set for Tuesday at 7 p.m.

The Griffins suffered their lone loss on April 12 to North in the finals of the Warren Invite.

They beat the Phoenix in title matches at Marist and their own tournament and then again last Friday to end the regular season.

East didn’t have many troubles when it met the Knights on May 21, but Central has bounced back from that by claiming regional wins over Providence and Carl Sandburg.

While few have been able to stop a Griffins squad led by college-bound performers Austin Royer, Ryan Vorderer, Nate Van Dellen and Josh Phalen, the Knights intend to give it their best shot.

“This sectional is the toughest in the state hands down,” Central coach Brian Danielson said. “East is a great team and their record shows that. For my team we just need to believe that we are as good as any other team in the state. It’s going to be hard to beat East, North or Brother Rice, but we are up to the challenge.”

Brother Rice has extra motivation going for it as it meets up again with coach Matt Lawrence’s Phoenix, who placed second at state last year. Crusaders coach Paul Ickes, one of the pioneers of the sport in Illinois,

is retiring at the end of the season.

“The sectional is kind of going how I thought it would,” East coach Kris Fiore said. “You can throw records out the window, and you have to come to play hard every night. There are too many quality teams in this area to have an ‘off’ night and expect to make it through. I expect the quality of play to only intensify at Marist. We are playing very well now, our team has a clear mission and they are very determined to accomplish it.”

Meanwhile, Plainfield Central and Plainfield North will meet for the fourth time this season in Friday’s 7 p.m.

Bolingbrook Sectional semifinals.

While first-year coach Alex Hurlburt’s Wildcats (26-10) have enjoyed the upper hand this season and just made history by winning their first regional title, the Tigers (20-10) certainly deserve a lot of credit for overcoming adversity throughout the campaign.

After losing four-year player Doug Aremka to injury in late April, North coach Kevin Vesper has relied on outside hitter Alex Robles, setter Shane Yeo and libero Chris Paige to help his program claim their second regional title in three years.

“We have faced unpredictable challenges, which caused many of our players to play unnatural positions,” Vesper said. “However, every single person on this team has stepped up to the challenge and excelled in any new role they are asked to play.

These 15 young men truly make up a ‘team.’

“Plainfield Central has an excellent team that is playing very well and seems to have hit their stride at the right time. They are a powerful team at the net and work well together. It should be a very exciting volleyball match.”

The winner advances to Tuesday’s 7 p.m. finals against either O’Fallon (295) or Edwardsville (19-12), which meet Friday at Belleville West.

AREA ROUNDUP

STAFF REPORTS

PREP BASEBALL Class 1A Putnam County Sectional: Gardner-South Wilmington defeated Luther North, 4-1, to advance to Saturday’s title game against Illinois Lutheran.

NEW YORK – Dominic Moore scored in the second period, Henrik Lundqvist bounced back from his worst performance in the playoffs and the Rangers beat the Montreal Canadiens, 1-0, on Thursday night to advance to the Stanley Cup Final.

The Rangers are in the championship round for the first time since winning it all in 1994.

Lundqvist and the Rangers shook off a 7-4 road loss Tuesday night and took out the Canadiens on home ice. Lundqvist needed to make only 18 saves in his team-record tying ninth postseason shutout. He was pulled after allowing four goals in less than two periods Tuesday.

Lundqvist had been 0-5 since 2009 in non-Game 7 clinching games. He leaped several times

5-3, to advance to face Morris in Saturday’s 10 a.m. title game. The Coalers (16-16) fell behind 2-0 in the first, pulled to within 2-1 on an RBI single

by D.J. Budde. Coal City went up 3-2 in the top of the sixth on an RBI single by Alex Wills, and Brad Littleton scored on a wild pitch. But L-P came back three runs in the bottom of the sixth.

Class 4A Lincoln-Way Central Regional: The host Knights scored four times in the seventh to rally for a 6-5 win over TF South. Cam Post (3 for 4) tied things with a two-run single and Sean Barry scored the game-winner on an error. Kevin Mampe (3-3) struck out 10 in a complete-game effort. Central plays Carl Sandburg in the title game at 11 a.m. Saturday.

Class 4A Bolingbrook Regional: Plainfield North (268) scored two in the seventh to edge Bolingbrook, 9-8, to advance to Saturday’s final against the winner of Friday’s game between Hinsdale Central and Wheaton Warrenville South. Richard Bryza drove in three runs, including two on a game-winning single, while Kyle Strepek went 3 for 5 with two RBIs. Matt Welch, Jason Pacanowski and Zach Jarosz had two hits each for the Tigers.

Class 4A Plainfield South Regional: Joliet West advances to Saturday’s final to play Minooka after defeating Bradley-Bourbonnais.

edged Yorkville, 1-0, to earn a spot in Saturday’s title game.

In a contest that was suspended because of darkness from Wednesday, Waubonsie Valley scored a run in the 14th inning to win, 3-2, over Plainfield East (15-19-1). Anthony Bryan and Jovany Urbieta each had two hits for the Bengals.

Class 3A Morris Regional: LaSalle-Peru defeated Coal City,

in his crease with his hands raised as streamers were fired off from the rafters.

Montreal’s Dustin Tokarski, who replaced injured No. 1 goalie Carey Price after Game 1, was solid in making 31 saves.

The Stanley Cup Final will begin Wednesday at either Chicago or Los Angeles, which leads the Western final, 3-2.

Montreal made one final push after Tokarski was pulled for an extra skater with 1:53 left. Lundqvist held off the Canadiens as fans chanted “Hen-rik! Hen-rik!”

The Rangers broke the deadlock late in the second period after some good grinding work in the left corner by rugged forward Derek Dorsett.

Moore punctuated his third goal of the playoffs with an emphatic fist pump and yell.

Saad refuses to let Hawks lose

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com CHICAGO – In the biggest game of the year, with a season and a Stanley Cup defense on the line, on a team loaded with elite veteran superstars, it was Brandon Saad – 21-yearold Brandon Saad – who simply wouldn’t let the Blackhawks lose Wednesday night.

It was Saad barreling through the neutral zone and attacking the net. It was Saad firing pucks on net, attempting 10 in all. It was Saad backchecking like crazy, forcing at least three turnovers. It was Saad keeping up with and making plays with Patrick Kane.

It was Saad setting up Michal Handzus’ game-winning goal in overtime.

It was Saad in full – a big, fast, Marian Hossa clone with uncanny strength on the puck to go along with his natural speed and innate confidence and hockey sense, far beyond his years.

“What I saw last night was probably one of his best games I’ve ever seen him play,” said defenseman Michal Rozsival, echoing what everyone – even Saad himself – believed. “Just the way he played with so much confidence. He looked like he wanted to be the guy, the guy that makes the difference in the hockey game. I think he did.”

AP file photo

Kings goalie Jonathan Quick and Slava Voynov watch as the Blackhawks’ Brandon Saad tries to control the puck Wednesday during Game 5 of the Western Conference final at the United Center.

Kane said he was “awesome.” Jonathan Toews said he was “unbelievable.” High praise from guys who know a thing or two about putting a team on your back in the most pressure-packed of situations.

You hesitate to label it a breakout game for Saad, or call it his coming-out party.

The 6-foot-1, 202-pounder has been awfully good from the start, since he became a fulltime NHL player in the second game of the 2013 season – thrust on to the top line with Toews and Hossa and fitting right in at age 20. His teammates deemed him the “Man-Child” because of his size, his strength, and, well, his impres-

sive beard-growing ability.

But Wednesday night, he was simply the Man. He had a goal and two assists and was a plus-4 in the 5-4 double-overtime victory. In 17 playoff games, he has five goals and eight assists and a plus-9 rating. No other Hawks player is better than plus-5.

“He was never satisfied,” Toews said. “He wants to be a difference-maker, and I don’t know if i can think of a game that I’ve seen him play better than last night. He was unbelievable. That’s what it takes.

That’s basically what we need to find a way to win against this [Kings] team, is guys like that stepping up.”

JJC horticulture professor offers tips on getting the most beauty for the least cost

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com

J

OLIET – It’s impossible to “overdo” wedding flowers.

So says Donna Theimer, professor of horticulture at Joliet Junior College. Flowers, more than any other accessory, give that oh-so-important romantic feel most brides want, Theimer said.

“I don’t know any bride that doesn’t want people to walk into a room and be ‘wowed’ by the decorations,” Theimer said.

To get the most “wow” for the money, Theimer suggests keeping the following in mind when selecting wedding flowers.

Budget by timing: June is still the most popular month for weddings – which drives up floral costs. So does hosting the wedding on Mother’s Day weekend and the weekends before and after that holiday, Theimer said. The least expensive times? Fall and days not considered traditional for weddings, such as Friday evenings and Sunday afternoons, Theimer said.

For optimal prices, try to book the florist six months in advance instead of waiting “until the last minute,” she added.

Budget by variety: Despite worldwide market availability for many varieties, brides do “pay through the nose” for tulips in March and April, even as they “turn their noses” up at less-expensive carnations. Why is this? Because many brides assume color choices are limited to red, white and pink, which is untrue, Theimer said.

Not only are carnations a budget-friendly choice – as are daisies and chrysanthemums – carnations come in a wide array of natural colors, including purple, Theimer said. Hydrangeas are “breathtakingly beautiful” in fall and less pricey during that time,

Working on a corsage are (left to right) students Gabi Ortega, Meredith Herzig, Tara Walano and professor Donna Theimer. Theimer offers several tips on how to keep a low budget when selecting flowers for a wedding.

The bride, Romana Masheris, at her 2013 spring wedding, with her bouquet of orange roses, green hydrangea, green hypericum berries, mango mini calla lilies, orange spray roses orange French tulips and assorted crystals. Theimer’s class created all of the flower arrangements. she added.

Color: Most brides are “techno-friendly” when it comes to social media sites, which often post examples of options on wedding flowers.

The problem occurs when

brides bring those photos to florists and expect to match those colors, which often have been altered digitally, Theimer said.

Brides having their hearts

set on colors not found in Mother Nature should know florists can artificially enhance those colors with sprayon products, Theimer said.

The look is not “thick and gloppy” but translucent and natural; it brings out all the “subtle striations” in the petals, she said.

Do it yourself: Not recommended, even though Theimer teaches students how “to do” wedding flowers. Creating your own floral arrangements is more than selecting and arranging. It’s also picking up, cleaning, safely packing to prevent tipping and spilling, and then transporting to the church and also to the banquet hall, Theimer said.

Once at the reception site, it also means waiting for the linens to be changed out from the previous event and for the clean-up and set-up crew to complete their duties. This often leaves just an hour to prepare the room (if the bride has plenty of friends to help out)

– not the best game plan on wedding day, Theimer said.

Fragrance: With many flower now bred for longevity, overwhelming fragrant flowers are less common than in days past, Theimer said. Still, it’s good to keep that highly scented variety – like geraniums or lily of the valley – on the guest table can change the flavors of the food being served, she added.

Mason jars: Whether wrapped in burlap or hand-painted, mason jars resonate with today’s brides, Theimer said. If using them, select jars to complement the flowers. For instance, Theimer said, if the jar has a 4-inch opening on top, it will require a large flower to fill that space, Theimer said.

Scale: Flowers do more than lend elegance and romance to the banquet space.

They “set the room to human scale.” Meaning, a very large room with high ceilings can feel oversized if centerpieces contain bud vases or tiny flowers, Theimer said. Large table displays – such as those comprised of Calla Lilies – help eliminate that sense, she added.

Some florists will caution against it, Theimer said, as it blocks the view of other guests.

However, Theimer feels that if people are sitting around a 72-inch table, they run the risk of shouting to each other, despite the size of the centerpiece. It’s more polite, she said, to speak to those closest and then circulate amongst the other guests.

Sustainability: Trendy on the East and West coasts, thinking “sustainability” when selecting wedding flowers is impractical in the Midwest because of the lack of supply, Theimer said. That’s because the main grower of cut products is in Beloit, Wisconsin, she added.

by Meghan Culp, Shannon Hubbart, Jeff Jakob and Danielle Schmidt.

Students created a five minute film depicting an international issue. Each presentation included a student-created thesis detailing the global problem, current solution in

place and the overall effectiveness of that solution. Students also were encouraged to develop an additional solution to solving the problem. The project took one month.

The students then published their films to YouTube. Peers watched and nominated the best ones. The top films were shown in the auditorium. The student audience voted live through Twitter so the results appeared instantly.

First-place film was “AIDS/ HIV in Africa” by Alexis Garcia, Areli Hernandez, and Taylor Styrczula. Second-place film was “HIV/AIDS in Uganda”

by Kristen Ames and Felipe Ortiz. Third place was “Conflict Diamonds” by Brooklyn Johnson and Kaitlin Nordmeyer. Winners received gift cards donated by local businesses.

PLOT: As a cowardly farmer begins to

“Blended” is more successful when it lets itself be sentimental. Jim’s middle daughter, Espn (Emma Fuhrmann) – pronounced “Espin,” her namesake is the TV network – talks constantly to her dead mother, even saving seats for Jim’s late wife at the breakfast table. “Blended” has other problems, too, including some faulty editing and a typically predictable finale. But there are some genuinely sweet and funny moments, which are more than enough to exceed expectations.– The

STARRING: Angelina Jolie, Elle

Barrymore, Wendi McLendon-Covey PLOT: After a bad blind date, a man and woman find themselves stuck together at a resort for families, where their attraction grows as their respective kids benefit from the burgeoning relationship.

RATED: PG-13 for crude and sexual content and language TIME: 1 hour, 57 minutes VERDICT: Adam Sandler’s Happy Madison Productions churns out some of the most idiotic comedies to land on the big screen. To wit: Last year’s “Grown Ups 2” was one of the worst movies since 2012’s “That’s My Boy,” which was at least slightly better than Razzie winner “Jack and Jill,” from 2011. Compared with its forebears, the romantic comedy “Blended” looks like “Annie Hall.” Of course, the bar is low. But when the fire alarm started ringing an hour into a recent screening of the movie and the whole audience had to file out to the street, just about everyone appeared to return for the final hour.

So that’s something. Sixteen years since Sandler starred opposite Drew Barrymore in “The Wedding Singer” and a decade since they starred together in “50 First Dates,” the pair have grown up, even if the comedy hasn’t. They play Jim and Lauren, two single parents who go on a disastrous blind date. Basically, Jim is a schlubby Mr. Darcy, antagonizing Lauren only to potentially win her over later, when the two, each with their children, coincidentally end up on the same African safari vacation for Brady Bunch-esque blended families. There are a lot of misses when it comes to the comedy. One of the most depend-

PLOT: A vindictive fairy is driven to curse an infant princess only to realize the child may be the only one who can restore peace.

TIME: 1 hour, 37 minutes VERDICT: Maybe it’s too soon to say the tide has shifted definitively. But it’s certainly been a unique time for fairy-tale villains. After hundreds of years of moral clarity, suddenly we’re getting a new look at these evil creatures, who are actually turning out to be complex beings, and not that bad at all. Really, they’ve just been misunderstood. (And, by the way, those charming princes? Highly overrated.) The most obvious recent example is “Frozen,” the animated Disney blockbuster that showed us how the Snow Queen, long portrayed as an icy-hearted villain, was actually a tragic victim of circumstance, with a pure and loving heart. And now we have “Maleficent,” which tells us that one of the most evil characters in all of pop culture is equally vulnerable and misunderstood. Plus, she’s gorgeous. Duh. She’s Angelina Jolie. All this is a rather seismic development in fairytale-dom. There are numerous versions of “Sleeping Beauty,” stemming back even before Charles Perrault’s from 1697, but the fairy who casts an angry spell on the baby princess, dooming her to prick her finger, has always been, well, just nasty. But now, 55 years after Disney introduced the character named Maleficent in its 1959 classic film – and colored her skin an eerie green

– the studio is back with a live-action (not to mention 3D) Maleficent who’s more superheroine than evil fairy.

Think Maleficent by way of Lara Croft. Director Robert Stromberg and screenwriter Linda Woolverton take us back to the fairy’s youth to better understand her. One day she meets a young man from that other, darker world, where humans live.

The two form a strong bond. But the ugliest human emotions – jealousy and ambition – will intervene. Young Stefan will grow into the power-hungry older Stefan (the wild-eyed South African actor Sharlto Copley.) And his stunning betrayal of Maleficent will instantly harden her. Alas, the story’s still all about a guy, in the end. But we digress. “Maleficent” is surely targeted to the same audience – young and female – which has so lovingly embraced “Frozen” and its appealing message of female solidarity and empowerment. But “Frozen” felt clever, charming, and fresh. “Maleficent,” less so. Part of this is due, paradoxically, to Jolie’s star wattage.

Don’t get us wrong: she’s the best thing about the movie, and always worth watching. But it blunts the effectiveness of the narrative if we can never quite believe Maleficent is bad.

And frankly, the other characters are simply not that interesting. The best scenes Aurora has, in fact, are when she’s a gurgling baby and then, adorably, a toddler, played by none other than 5-year-old Vivienne Jolie-Pitt.

In the end, “Maleficent” is fun for its appealing visuals – especially in the forest – and for watching Jolie. But that’s not enough to make the whole film interesting. As the minutes tick by, you might even start feeling a bit like Sleeping Beauty herself comes to feel: drowsy.– The Associated Press

“X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST” STARRING: Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Hugh Jackman

PLOT: The X-Men send Wolverine to the past in a desperate effort to change history and prevent an event that results in doom for both humans and mutants.

RATED: PG-13 for sequences of intense sci-fi violence and action, some suggestive material, nudity and language TIME: 2 hours, 11 minutes VERDICT: Matthew Vaughn and a superb cast reinvigorated the franchise with cool retro style and globe-trotting intrigue in 2011’s “X-Men: First Class.” The series’

original director, Bryan Singer, continues that momentum in the vigorously entertaining “X-Men: Days of Future Past.” While it’s more dramatically diffuse than the reboot and lacks a definitive villain, the new film is shot through with a stirring reverence for the Marvel Comics characters. Hardcore followers will have a geek field day.

The central premise comes from the 1981 Uncanny X-Men comic “Days of Future Past,” in which Kitty Pryde (Ellen Page) uses her consciousness transference powers to go back from a dystopian future and rewrite history. Echoes of the Holocaust have rippled throughout the series, and Singer opens with present-day scenes of a desolate, burnt-out New York, where mutants and mutant-sympathizing humans have been rounded up in internment camps. Jumping to a similarly devastated Moscow, we watch Kitty, Iceman (Shawn Ashmore) and a small band of mutants face an attack from the deadly Sentinels. The mutants escape and regroup in the rubble of an ancient Chinese monastery with Professor X (Patrick Stewart), Magneto (Ian McKellen), Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Storm (Halle Berry). Threatened with extinction, the mutant holdouts hatch a plan to return to the post-Vietnam Paris Peace Accord of 1973, when Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence) killed Dr. Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage), a U.S. military scientist developing the Sentinels program. Wolverine’s ability to heal makes him the only one able to withstand the 40-year time jump. Kinberg’s script milks welcome humor out of sending the least diplomatic of the X-Men back to convince the younger Professor X (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender) to join forces and stop the assassination. Perhaps the film’s standout sequence features the much-discussed new addition of Peter Maximoff, aka Quicksilver (“American Horror Story” regular Evan Peters). His super-speed skills are conveyed by shooting at 3,000 frames per second, notably when Peter runs around the walls during a fabulously staged Pentagon breakin, whimsically accompanied by Jim Croce singing “Time in a Bottle.”

But this movie belongs to Jackman and Lawrence. Audiences should sit tight through the end credits crawl for an enigmatic signoff scene that provides a taste of the next installment, “X-Men: Apocalypse.”– The

fall for the mysterious new woman in town, he must put his new-found courage to the test when her husband, a notorious gun-slinger, announces his arrival.

RATED: R for strong crude and sexual content, language throughout, some violence and drug material TIME: 1 hour, 46 minutes VERDICT: Seth MacFarlane might have picked a safer place to make his lead-acting debut than “A Million Ways to Die in the West,” his directorial follow-up to 2012’s surprisingly successful “Ted.” The marketplace doesn’t seem to be crying out for Westerns, after all – be they earnest revivals, satires, or genre hybrids involving extra-terrestrials – and the undeniably of-hismoment MacFarlane is, as the script indirectly admits, a strange fit for the genre. Stocking the supporting cast with top-drawer talent, he gives most of his co-stars little to do besides attract our attention on movie posters. A winking mid-film cameo prompts viewers to wonder how MacFarlane might have fared playing a time-traveler from our era stranded in the Old West. Instead, his 1880s sheep farmer Albert Stark simply talks like someone born in and transplanted from the 20th century. “We live in a terrible place and time,” Albert tells friends Edward (Giovanni Ribisi) and Ruth (Sarah Silverman), assessing his surroundings as if seeing medical and social realities through our eyes.

Dumped by his longtime sweetheart Louise (Amanda Seyfried), Albert is about ready to leave town when he meets Anna (Charlize Theron), a newcomer who appreciates his gentle personality in a way locals don’t. Perhaps that’s because she’s secretly betrothed to the meanest cuss in these parts, a bandit called Clinch (Liam Neeson), who has sent her here to hide out while he dodges the law for a spell. While Albert frets about Louise’s new romance with fancy-pants shopkeeper Foy (Neil Patrick Harris, whose vain moustache-tonic merchant is a reliable laugh-getter), Anna takes an inexplicable interest in helping him stand up for himself. In a rare display of nerve, Albert challenges Foy to a duel; as Anna offers him the gunslinger lessons that will inevi-

tably lead to love, the film’s supporting cast all but vanishes from the film. The romance plot could hardly be more familiar, but at least it plays out against a landscape so dramatic one almost suspects the filmmakers composited a few extra sandstone formations into Monument Valley.

Theron carries almost all the weight here, given her partner’s unexpected blandness. Although the film is hardly laugh-free, its uneven jokes appear to have breezed through a very forgiving editing process.

The leave-it-all-in approach leads to a nearly two-hour running time that looks all the more indulgent given how much invention “Blazing Saddles” packed into an hour-and-ahalf.– The Associated Press

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Michio Kaku, a professor of theoretical physics, made this valid point: “It’s pointless to have a nice clean desk, because it means you’re not doing anything.”

Who could disagree with that?

There are some plays that seem pointless, but upon closer inspection prove that you are doing something vital. In this deal, the “pointless” play occurs at trick one.

South is in four hearts. West leads the spade two. After declarer plays low from the dummy, why does it make a difference whether East plays his 10 or king?

Nowadays many Wests would have made a takeout double over one heart. I am still not convinced it is a good idea with a relatively weak 4-3-3-3. South’s jump to four hearts was a slight overbid with such a balanced hand, but whenever you smell a game, bid that game.

If East plays the spade king at trick one, it does not cost the defense a spade trick, but declarer can then make his contract. He wins with his ace and drives out the heart ace. West takes his ace and cashes the spade queen, but even if he leads another spade, South ruffs in the dummy, plays off his two top clubs, draws trumps ending on the board, and runs the clubs.

Now let East “finesse against his partner” by putting in the spade 10 at trick one. Then West, when he gets in with his heart ace, can lead another low spade.

East can take the trick and shift to a diamond, giving the defenders one spade, one heart and two diamonds.

The finesse against partner retains an entry card for East.

36 Family wishes woman would stop tanning Dear Abby: I love my daughter-in-law and I am afraid she is harming herself because of her addiction to tanning. Her boys are in high school and cannot remember their mother without a really dark tan. One son told his classmates in grade school that his mother was African-American when they were doing African-American studies. (She’s Caucasian.)

My son says he cannot convince her to “lighten up” a bit. I don’t know what to do. I am ... – So Concerned For Her In Illinois Dear So Concerned: You are right to be concerned for your daughter-in-law. For years, dermatologists have cautioned the public about the dangers of exposure to the sun. With the invention of tanning beds, the rates of melanoma among young people have soared.

For anyone who isn’t aware, melanoma is an aggressive type of skin cancer that can be fatal.

Tanning can be addictive, and you should urge your daughter-in-law to discuss this with a dermatologist. She should explore “sunless tanning,” which is much safer.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Dear Abby: I’m 18. My boyfriend, “Matt,” and I have been together for a year and a half, and I’m leaving for college this fall. Matt will be attending community college nearby.

I have been told that the next four years are the best years of life, and I want to live them to the fullest. In order to do that, I want to be single so I can have a good time and be a little reckless without worrying about him.

I love Matt and would one day like to marry him, but since he’s only my third boyfriend, I want to find out what other fish are in the sea before I settle down. What should I do? – Wants The Best Of Both Worlds Dear Wants The Best: The kindest thing to do would be to tell Matt that while you care deeply for him, because you are going to be separated for the next four years, you feel both of you should

be free to date others. That’s a lot more tactful than saying you’ll still be there if there aren’t any bigger fish in the sea, and I’m sure it will get the idea across.

Whether or not the next four years will be the best years of your life – one would hope you have more than four – they will be an important growth period for both you and Matt, and each of you should explore them to the fullest without being encumbered.

Dear Abby: We play softball at school a lot, and I can’t play well.

I don’t know what to do, and the others laugh at me. What should I do? – Anxious For Advice Dear Anxious: I know of no athlete, amateur or professional, who can become proficient at a sport without lots of practice. Talk to your coach about what you need to do to improve, and see if another adult would be willing to play catch and pitch to you. If you keep trying, you will improve. If not, there may be another sport you will like better.

Pacemakers have become smaller, more reliable Dear Doctor K: I’m scheduled to have a pacemaker inserted in a couple of weeks. Can you tell me what will happen during the procedure?

Dear Reader: A pacemaker is a little box that is placed beneath the skin of your chest. It has wires that run into your heart, attaching to its inner surface. A pacemaker regulates your heartbeat electronically.

The normal heart beats about 60 to 80 times a minute, with a regular rhythm. This happens because of special cells in your heart that generate electrical signals. In other words, every heart comes with its own natural “pacemaker.” When that natural pacemaker fails, a little electrical machine is placed inside you as a substitute.

The pacemaker basically does two things. First, it senses what your natural pacemaker is doing.

Then, if it senses your natural pacemaker is not sending proper signals, it substitutes for your natural pacemaker and sends the signals instead. Those electrical signals are painless, and they trigger a heartbeat.

Pacemakers are programmed to meet the needs of your heart, whether it beats too fast, too slow or with an irregular rhythm.

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff The programmable part of the pacemaker, the little box, is called the pulse generator. It often weighs less than 1 ounce and is encased in titanium. The wires from the pulse generator to the heart are called leads. At the ends of the leads are tiny metal plates (electrodes) that attach to the inner surface of your heart. These electrodes pick up your heart’s natural electric signals and send them to the pulse generator.

When the pulse generator determines that it needs to send your heart an electrical nudge, that signal travels back along the leads to your heart muscle.

During your surgery, a patch of skin on your chest, near your collarbone, will be shaved, cleaned and numbed with a local anesthetic. A 2- to 3-inch incision will be made, which provides access to a very large vein. Your doctor will thread the pacemaker leads through this vein into your heart. There, the tips of the electrodes will attach to the heart wall.

Once the electrodes are inside your heart, a type of X-ray called fluoroscopy will confirm that the electrodes are in the correct place.

Your doctor will test the leads electronically to ensure they are operating properly. Then your doctor will connect the pacemaker leads to the pulse generator.

The pulse generator is usually placed below the left or right collarbone. Your doctor will create a small pocket in the skin under the collarbone incision and insert the pulse generator into this pocket.

Finally, the doctor will close the incision with stitches. The entire procedure usually takes about one hour.

(I’ve put an illustration on my website, AskDoctorK.com, showing where the components of the pacemaker will be placed.)

The original pacemakers appeared in the 1960s. Since then, as the miniaturization of electronics has exploded, they have become much smaller, more reliable and capable of treating more electrical problems of the heart.

Woman dates co-worker while also tied to another Dr. Wallace: I’m a 20-year-old guy and interested in a young lady, also 20, who works in the same office as I do. About a month ago she told me that she was having problems with the guy she is seeing and that she might stop seeing him.

I decided to ask her out last week and was surprised when she said yes. We went out last Saturday for dinner and a movie and I had a super time. She told me that she also enjoyed going out with me.

When I saw her at work today, I told her that I’d really like to continue seeing her, but I hoped she would stop seeing the other guy. She said she would continue to go out with me occasionally, but that she was going to also continue dating the other guy because she needs to decide if she does or does not love him. – What should I do? – Tyler, Lake Charles, La. Dear Tyler: The young lady you are dating is wise and totally honest.

My advice is to continue dating her, but stop wasting time trying to help her make up her mind about the other guy. Consider yourself fortunate that she wants to see you again.

Concentrate on having a wonderful time on the dates and, who knows, she could decide in your favor.

Dr. Wallace: My best friend has been dating a guy for over six months.

It has been a rocky relationship to say the least.

Every time she has a major problem with him, she cries on my shoulder. They have already split up three times.

Yesterday was the third time and I’m getting tired of her sob stories. She always asks for my advice, but she rarely takes it. Help! – Nameless, Galesburg

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace Dear Nameless: You are a very important friend to her. Even though she doesn’t always take your advice, she needs to use you as a “sounding board.” Make sure you make her feel she can always come to you when something troubles her. That’s what friendship is all about. I’m sure she’d do the same for you.

Dr. Wallace: A certain boy and I have been “best friends” for over four years. I have liked him very much the entire time, but I have never told him of my feelings even though I have had many opportunities. I just didn’t want to risk losing his friendship by coming on too strong. Now that I’m older (15) I want to be more than just “good friends.” We go to different schools, but I see him at least twice a week because we are in the same youth group and have mutual friends.

Sometimes I get the feeling that he feels the same way about me. What should I do?

I would feel stupid if I told him that I loved him and he would shine me on. – Sissy, Talladega, Ala. Dear Sissy: It would be nice if you could invite him to a function at your school. But do not mention being in love with him because this might scare him away. I feel confident that he will accept your invitation and go out with you. He probably just hasn’t asked you for a date yet because ... he was afraid that he might lose a friend.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS

– United Feature Syndicate

HOROSCOPE

By BERNICE BEDE OSOL Newspaper Enterprise Association

By MICHAEL O’SULLIVAN The Washington Post When it was revealed that video of Charlize Theron’s reaction to 2013 Academy Awards host Seth MacFarlane’s songs was not spontaneous exasperation but a pre-recorded part of the joke, we learned two things about the Oscar-winning actress: She’s not only a really good sport, but, boy, can she keep a straight face.

Both of these skills are in evidence in “A Million Ways to Die in the West,” a broad, wildly hit-or-miss satire of westerns co-starring Theron and MacFarlane (who also directed, produced and co-wrote the film). Crude, rude and – in the case of actor Liam Neeson’s derriere – briefly nude, the movie not only taxes Theron’s willingness to crack wise about her lady parts, but demonstrates that she can do so without cracking up on camera.

The same cannot be said of MacFarlane.

Look, no one ever accused the guy of being Sir Laurence Olivier. Best known as the creative jack-of-all-trades behind the cartoon series “American Dad,” “Family Guy” and “The Cleveland Show,” MacFarlane, when put in front of a camera, seems caught in a perpetual smirk, as though he’s inordinately pleased with himself.

Perhaps he has some right to be.

The new movie – in which MacFarlane plays a cowardly, lovelorn sheep farmer, with Theron as his romantic mentor and Neeson his gunslinging nemesis – is passably funny, assuming you have the stomach for jokes about diarrhea, sex, death and all manner of body parts (both human and sheep).

Judging by the rapid-fire, raunchy humor in the trailer, this is an effective combination. When stretched out to almost two hours by all the absurdist plotting, pop-culture asides and sometimes painfully awkward silences that MacFarlane is known for, it’s not quite so zingy.

In fairness, MacFarlane knows his own weakness. He’s not the hero of the movie, as his character, Albert, re-

This observational detachment – being in the movie, but not of it – can work, but only to the degree that you let it.

As the Village Voice favorably – and aptly – noted, MacFarlane is like the animated Roger Rabbit here, a cartoon stuck in a live action world.

Some viewers, however, may wish for a bit more commitment.

The disconnect between Albert and the world he inhabits is at times off-putting, especially when you compare MacFarlane’s performance with those of his co-stars. Theron is not only quite funny, but also fully invested in the role of Anna, a woman who pretends to be Albert’s girlfriend so that he can make his ex-squeeze, Louise (Amanda Seyfried), jealous.

Neil Patrick Harris also fully inhabits the role of Louise’s extravagantly mustachioed and egotistical lover, Foy. Though shallowly written, both parts are grounded in reality.

With a supporting cast as strong as this – supplemented by several surprise cameos from stars I won’t mention – does anyone care that MacFarlane can’t really act? It never hurt Jerry Seinfeld, whose paper-thin persona on his self-titled sitcom was made

plausible, if not fully three-dimensional, by the top-notch ensemble that the star surrounded himself with.

No, the problem isn’t MacFarlane’s inch-deep performance. In a way, we need him to splash through the proceedings like a kid in a puddle, making fun of such tropes of the western genre as the barroom brawl, the bordello girls with hearts of gold, the perfectly choreographed barn-dance blowout and the climactic gunfight. Cutting away from the action to comment on it is the joke. And it has become MacFarlane’s signature style.

The film’s failure isn’t one of restraint, either. As he demonstrated with his Academy Awards song, MacFarlane’s gift, such as it is, lies in pushing humor to the threshold of decorum and then charging across that line. That’s what we pay him for.

The real problem with “A Million Ways to Die in the West” is one of editing. There are a million jokes in it, but only 500,000 of them are funny.

• “A Million Ways to Die in the West” received two-and-a-half stars out of four. The film is rated R and contains crude sexual and excretory humor, obscenity, violence, drug use and brief nudity. It runs 116 minutes.

• Friday, May 30, 2014

TODAY – The coming year will be a time of advancement. Your moneymaking ideas are sound, but following the proper channels will be necessary. Stick to a strict budget, and your situation will continue to improve, allowing you greater freedom to develop an idea or interest that can add to your income.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Someone will make you feel overly sensitive today. Don’t waste time feeling sorry for yourself, when you should be looking for something to do that enriches your life and leads to new acquaintances.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Don’t fall prey to a fast-talking stranger. Keep your eye on your money and refuse any offers that seem too good to be true. Caution is the name of the game.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Offer your time to a cause that you feel passionate about. You can make life easier for others with a little effort.

Your own problems will seem relatively small.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Delegate your responsibilities. If you don’t put in an honest effort, you will not honor a commitment. This will cause problems with an authority figure that will compromise your position.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – A romantic encounter is in the stars. Don’t question what’s being offered, just plan to enjoy the moment and see where it leads. Social functions will offer an interesting alternative.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Stick to your own affairs today. You will have to refrain from commenting on the way others do things. A friendship may be jeopardized if you are too opinionated.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Someone close to you will show interest in your personal life. This can lead to an offer of help that will allow you greater freedom to follow interesting pursuits.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t take part in gossip. Protect your reputation regardless of what others do. Stay out of the spotlight and work diligently to live up to your responsibilities. Actions speak louder than words.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You are probably in need of a little pampering. A relaxing day at the spa or an energetic session at the gym will prepare you for a romantic evening.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will feel better about yourself if you get rid of a bad habit. Self-improvement will help you shed negativity, making way for a confident, goal-oriented mindset.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Love and laughter will surround you. Now is a good time to spice up your romantic life. Socializing or an intimate tete-a-tete will enhance your existence.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Your schedule appears to be hectic, which will lead to a costly error if you don’t slow down and think matters through carefully. Ask for help if you feel overwhelmed.
