Huntley firefighters work on the eastbound side of Interstate 90 following a chain-reaction accident Friday involving more than 30 vehicles east of Route 47 near Huntley. Fire Chief Ken Caudle said the first incident involved two semitrailers that jackknifed, but Sgt. Paul Carlos of the Illinois State Police said there were likely 10 to 12 incidents in total, including vehicles sliding off the road. Caudle said there was “a lot of major vehicle damage.” Traffic was backed up for five miles. By ALLISON GOODRICH

agoodrich@shawmedia.com Friday was a busy day for McHenry County-area police and fire agencies and a miserable one for motorists. While almost all of the area school districts were back in session Friday after a two-day, weather-related hiatus, drivers were still out and about in the freezing conditions and sliding over sheets of black ice. McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Aimee Knop said the number of crashes already was higher than usual by late Friday morning. From midnight to 11:30 a.m., the sheriff’s office dealt with 35 motorist assists and 14 traffic crashes in its jurisdiction.

Inside Winter outdoor activities: McHenry County groups offer hiking, skiing, ice fishing, snowmobiling. PAGE A3 “Today, we saw an increase in motor vehicle crashes due to black ice, some people driving too fast for conditions, as well as areas where there was snow drifting because of the wind,” Knop said. A majority of the motorist assists, she added, were for vehicles that had slid off the road and into

ditches. Only a handful of crashes resulted in minor injuries, and none were life-threatening, Knop said. The evening commute featured fewer calls for crashes and motorist assists. Individual municipalities also dealt with their fair share of road catastrophes during the early part

of Friday, with lane blockages in various areas congesting streets throughout the morning. Southbound Route 31 in Lake in the Hills was backed up for more than an hour after a crash that occurred near Virginia Road. And eastbound Interstate 90 near Huntley was jammed for miles while the Illinois State Police and the Huntley Fire Protection District dealt with 10 to 12 different crashes and spin-off incidents. “We had 30-plus vehicles involved total,” Huntley Fire Chief Ken Caudle said. “We ended up treating and transporting eight people. As for those who [refused medical treatment] on site, there were about 20 people.”

WOODSTOCK – Just after a not guilty verdict was returned for a former McHenry teacher accused of taking a photograph up the skirt of a student, the alleged victim’s father and one of Thomas Eggert’s supporters exchanged heated words. The girl’s father eventually was removed from the courthouse when it looked like the altercation might turn physical. It was unclear who provoked the argument. A supporter of 44-year-old Eggert Thomas a l s o h a d a n g r y Eggert words for news media members as they waited for comment. McHenry County Judge Robert Wilbrandt on Friday acquitted Eggert on all three misdemeanor charges of unauthorized video recording and disorderly conduct, finding that prosecutors had not proven Eggert’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. As he left the courtroom, Eggert himself said: “I want it clearly stated that I am innocent of all these charges.” Eggert, a teacher at East Campus for 17 years, was fired this fall. A message was left for the District 156 superintendent. “I wish there was a way he could regain his reputation,” defense attorney Daniel Hofmann said outside the courtroom. “Being found not guilty is very important, but how do you get someone back their excellent reputation?” Though he acquitted Eggert,

Advisers suggest plan for Rauner’s first 100 days in office CHICAGO – Gov.-elect Bruce Rauner can “usher in a new era” in Illinois, a committee advising the Republican businessman said Friday in offering recommendations for his priorities, saying the state’s problems will likely take years to address but are not intractable. Among the suggestions for his first 100 days in office was that Illinois

“jump start” the oil and gas drilling process known as hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, and that the governor’s office find a professional firm to create Illinois’ “new brand” and market the state to CEOs nationwide. The committee also said Rauner should streamline state agencies, pause and review major infrastructure projects and take steps to limit senior public officials from serving as lobbyists after they leave office. The 91-page report from Rauner’s

SPORTS

transition committee comes as he prepares to take the oath of office Monday. Rauner, who was traveling the state Friday as part of a twoBruce day tour before inauRauner gural festivities begin Sunday, said he would review the recommendations to ensure his team can “hit the ground running.” He did not commit to im-

plementing them. The biggest issue facing Rauner is undoubtedly Illinois’ financial crisis. The state has a multibillion-dollar budget deficit, billions in unpaid bills, the worst credit rating of any state and a $111 billion public-pension shortfall. Committee members did not give specific guidance on how to fix those problems. But they noted that the issues have prevented Illinois from providing services to residents and

@NWHerald

A one-way ticket to the robot planet Did you know there is a planet in our solar system that is totally inhabited by robots? Yep, robots. That planet is Mars and at this moment there are a handful of robot-type landers and rovers living there. Sorry folks, no Martians … at least not yet. That’s because there’s a nonprofit space organization based in the Netherlands called “Mars One” that has plans to establish a permanent colony of Earthlings-turned-Martians on that planet by 2024. That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for the Netherlands. The manned mission will take about seven months to reach Mars. Project directors admit this will be a very difficult part of the mission. Personally, I think the most difficult part of the mission will be convincing someone to get into the capsule in the first place. And once you’re up there, looking out the window will get a bit old after a while … “Hey, Lars … look at all that lifeless, empty, unending, relentless black space going on and on and on forever! Isn’t it neat?” “Hey, Sven … look at my rock-hard,

ruthless, cannonball fist going on and on and on into your face forever!” Yep, I suppose being cramped all those months could lead to a mild case of The Grouchies. Once they arrive, the astronauts will take up living in small, inflatable housing components that include bedrooms, living rooms, work areas and a place to grow their own food. Finally, the conversations will become much more upbuilding … “Hey, Lars … look at that desolate, rock-strewn, toxic landscape! Isn’t it neat?” “Hey, Sven … remember what happened to you on the way here?” Every two years a new group of astronauts will arrive with more supplies. The settlement will grow, but there’s one small detail of this mission that may be a bit disconcerting: There are no plans to return the astronauts to Earth. Nope, this is a one-way trip.

Kind of like being lost on the third floor of IKEA. But, despite the absolute finality of this mission, the project initially received over 200,000 astronaut applications. This number will be whittled down to the first four individuals who best meet the requirements. Interestingly, among the prerequisites for astronaut candidates is “Creativity/Resourcefulness,” the practical application of which is, “Your humor is a creative resource, used appropriately as an emerging contextual response.” I suppose this could be illustrated like this … “Hey, Lars … I think I have a hole in my space suit.” “Sure, Sven … did you hear the one about the astronaut who walks into a bar?” “No, Lars … I’m serious!” “OK … how about a brain teaser?” But now the Mars saga gets real interesting. All aspects of the missions, from astronaut training to the eventual landing on Mars to life on the Red Planet, will be reported in the format of a reality television show. Already, the media company responsible for the re-

ality show “Big Brother” has partnered with the Mars One folks to document their story. One’s imagination can run wild as we envision astronauts being voted off the planet, or having an amazing race across the ruddy terrain, or vying to be Mars’ next top space suit model. Or, better yet, send all the Kardashians up there and see if the Mars population can keep up with them. Despite its challenges, I actually asked my wife what she thought about me applying for this mission … “Honey, what if I wanted to go on a seven-month trip to Mars to be a reality TV star and stay there until I die?” “Michael, would you like the truth, or would you like a humorously creative answer used appropriately as an emerging contextual response?” “Never mind. Geesh.”

• Michael Penkava is a retired teacher who taught for 35 years at West Elementary School in Crystal Lake. He has given up his dream of going to the Red Planet. Instead, he settled for a Mars Bar and a trip to IKEA. He can be reached at mikepenkava@comcast.net.

The 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act require potentially major sources of air emissions to obtain federally enforceable operating permits. A FESOP permit allows a source that is potentially major to take operational limits in the permit so that it is a non-major source. The permit will contain federally enforceable limitations that restrict the facility’s emissions to non-major levels. The permit will be enforceable by the USEPA, as well as the Illinois EPA.

County offers variety of outdoor winter activities By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com

t’s human nature to retreat indoors when temperatures take a dip – or a nosedive, as is the case lately – but local outdoor recreation enthusiasts say you don’t have to. “We tend to get stuck inside for the winter, but we don’t really need to,” said Kim Compton, an educator coordinator with the McHenry County Conservation District. “As long as we bundle up and put on boots, we can still go out, get good exercise, get fresh air, get out of our indoor stuffy environments.” McHenry County and the region offers a number of activities for people looking to buck cabin fever this winter.

HIKING MCCD keeps 11 parks open through the winter, and trails offer visitors a peaceful setting. “Snow or no, it doesn’t matter – there are a lot of things uncovered in winter, and frankly, there are some things you can’t see any other times of the year,” MCCD spokeswoman Lora Petrak said. That includes the short-eared owls that are making their annual resurgence. It’s breeding season right now, so the nocturnal birds make an appearance just before dusk.

The exercise is designed to teach participants how small animals stay warm during the winter months. But as Compton points out, winter provides opportunities to catch some views that could be missed in the summer sun. “One of things we really like about winter is the views you get,” Compton said. “With the leaves down, not only do you have a better chance to see ... into the forest, but close up look-

ing into trees or bushes you can see summer nests from birds, woodpecker holes, beetle tunnels on the bark. Having that leaf-free view you get a lot more exploration.” Also, try snowshoes or cross-country skis for an added adventure and

WOODSTOCK – A former pastor for St. Mary Catholic Church in Woodstock pleaded guilty to charges of disorderly conduct Friday after facing initial charges of public indecency. Monsignor Aaron Brodeski, who was a priest in Woodstock for five years and former religion teacher at Marian Central Catholic High School, was sentenced to two years of court Aaron supervision, a Brodeski $500 fine and 30 hours of community service for a March 2014 incident. Brodeski last served as pastor of Holy Cross Catholic Church in Batavia before going on leave during a diocese investigation into his conduct. “Monsignor Brodeski cooperated fully with law enforcement and has been on administrative leave from any and all priestly assignments and participated in evaluation for any difficulties affecting his conduct and ministry,” read a statement from the Diocese of Rockford. “[He] will remain unassigned from all priestly duties at this time and will work with diocesan officials to determine the next course for him.” On March 27, 2014, the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Police were sent to the Road Ranger gas station at 4980 S. Main St., just south of Rockford, for a report of a man who had exposed himself to an employee, according to a release from the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Police. The station clerk told deputies the man – Brodeski – had exposed himself while in the store and also while parked in a car in the store’s parking lot, according to the release. Other employees and customers were in the store at the time.

jengelhardt@shawmedia.com McHENRY – McHenry High School District 156 could soon implement a new bell schedule as the push for an eight-period day gains momentum with administrators and teachers. Carl Vallianatos, director

of curriculum and instruction for District 156, said a preliminary plan for an eight-period day developed by a structure committee comprised of teachers, administrators and counselors has gained support and been presented to the board of education. The plan reduces the num-

adn =030 adno adno=0307652 =0307652 7652

ber of periods from 10 to eight, but days would be 10 minutes longer with school starting five minutes earlier and ending five minutes later. It also would unify the start and stop times for the East and West campuses, which have operated under staggered schedules.

“It’s been presented to administration, [teachers’] union members and the school board, and all parties are excited about the prospects,” Vallianatos said of the proposal. “But it’s just a recommendation right now ... a lot can still change.” While syncing up start

and end times will help with programs requiring travel between campuses, Vallianatos said the key component of the plan is a 35-minute period in the day where all teachers and students would participate in a support period.

Prosecutor criticizes associate principal’s actions • ACQUITTED Continued from page A1 Wilbrandt also said the veteran teacher made mistakes of judgment in the wake of allegations made by two East Campus students. One student first told school Associate Principal Lynn Schnelker that she saw Eggert use the zoom function on his phone and take a picture up the skirt of a 16-year-

old girl. The incident was alleged to have occurred in May 2014 during a school function in the auditorium. A second girl later said she saw Eggert zooming in, but never saw a picture taken. When first confronted by school administration, Eggert told Schnelker he didn’t have his phone with him. Eggert said that sometime during the event in the auditorium, he returned to his classroom and dropped off his phone. Howev-

er, school surveillance footage showed he never left the auditorium. Schnelker allowed him to return, unaccompanied, to his classroom to retrieve the phone. Assistant State’s Attorney Robert Ladd said Schnelker’s move was misguided. “When she let him to go the classroom alone, it gave him the perfect window to do exactly what he did ... delete inappropriate photos of [the

alleged victim.]” Eggert then showed Schnelker his phone, which contained photos from the school event, but nothing like the student alleged. Schnelker testified earlier at the bench trial that she told Eggert: “Don’t worry. There are no pictures on the phone. It’s a done deal.” Police testified they had the phone analyzed at a crime lab, but no photos were discovered.

County has about 200 miles of snowmobile trails • ACTIVITIES Continued from page A3 cardio workout, says Rick Pasturczak, owner of Alpine Accessories in Crystal Lake. “Anybody that wants to get outdoors and enjoy the cool or cold fresh air – these are great activities,” he said. In Pasturczak’s opinion, Moraine Hills State Park in McHenry is the best local place to enjoy those activities.

DOWNHILL SKIING There are a few downhill ski and snowboard hills within a short drive from McHenry County. The closest is Raging Buffalo in Carpentersville, a park that caters mostly to snowboarders.

There’s also Wilmot Mountain just over the Wisconsin border, and Alpine Valley Resort within about an hour of McHenry County. “We have within a morning’s drive larger areas that have longer runs,” Pasturczak said. “Places like Chestnut over in Galena, Devil’s Head, north of Madison, Granite Peak in Wausau, [Wisconsin].”

SNOWMOBILING There are about 200 miles of snowmobile trails that crisscross McHenry County, and now that there’s been some much-anticipated snow, they’re bound to be busy. The trails opened in December but require snow of at least 4 inches if the ground is frozen and 6 inches if it’s not.

The McHenry County Snowmobile Association and MCCD recently received a grant to help maintain those trails over the next three years. The association’s system runs from Harvard in the west to Fox Lake and Wauconda in the east. Most of the trails are in northeast McHenry County, in Ringwood, Wonder Lake, Johnsburg, Richmond and Spring Grove.

alike: safety. “The first rule of ice fishing is that, above all, never, ever go ice fishing alone,” Sarley wrote in a recent column. And although the recent frigid temps may have frozen area lakes and rivers, Sarley warns that it’s best to make sure. “For me personally, I wouldn’t even consider attempting to hit the ice without a minimum of 4 inches,” he said. “Actually, I prefer 5 to 6 inches to allay any feelings of anxiety I have.”

Slower speed, increased following distance recommended • DRIVING Continued from page A1 In Crystal Lake, police encountered 10 traffic crashes in the first half of Friday, which Cmdr. Dan Dziewior said is more than average. Three were reported as resulting in injuries, but “nothing is presumed serious at this point,” Dziewior said in an email. “The causes vary, as they always do, but a significant factor is definitely the slick roadway conditions.” Woodstock police also responded to six crashes and another half-dozen motorist assists, Deputy Chief John Lieb said in an email. About a half-dozen cars were strewn along the shoulders of Route 14 between Route 47 and McHenry County College during the morning commute. Dziewior said while most Crystal Lake roads were passable by the afternoon, blowing snow remains an issue as it can create slick spots, even on roads that have been plowed and treated. Marengo police only went to one crash and one assist, but the McHenry County

Damaged cars sit between two semitrailers Friday after a chain-reaction accident involving more than 30 vehicles near Huntley. Sheriff’s Office responded to others in unincorporated areas of Marengo. In conditions such as Friday’s, Knop said a higher level of caution is ever-important, as is leaving more distance than usual between vehicles. “And when you come

across drifting snow, it’s important not to slam on your brakes,” she said. “You have to just drive through it.” Dziewior gave more advice: “Motorists should be reminded to stay alert to changing conditions, drive with

caution and attentiveness as reaction time plays a significant role in the outcome of a driving event,” he said in an email. “Pay attention, increase following distance, take your time, anticipate increased stopping distance, arrive safe.”

because there are so many uses for it ... with all teachers and students having it at the same time,” Vallianatos said. “It would be four days a week, so that is 140 minutes to get a variety of things done, which can be enormously beneficial.” Vallianatos said administration would begin negotiating with the union in about five months, which could ultimately shape how the schedule would look as far as when the school day begins and how an eight-period day would be planned.

French forces kill gunmen Accomplice also dead after taking hostages PARIS – With explosions and gunfire, security forces Friday ended three days of terror around Paris, killing the two al-Qaida-linked brothers who staged a murderous rampage at a satirical newspaper and an accomplice who seized hostages at a kosher supermarket to try to help the brothers escape. The worst terrorist violence France has seen in decades killed at least 20 people, including the three gunmen. A fourth suspect – the common law wife of the market attacker – was still at large and believed to be armed. Al-Qaida’s branch in Yemen said it directed the attack against the publication Charlie Hebdo to avenge the honor of the Prophet Muhammad, a frequent target of the weekly’s satire. The brothers were known to authorities: One had a terrorism-related conviction for ties to a network sending fighters to battle American forces in Iraq, and both were on the U.S. no-fly list, according to a U.S. official. President Francois Hollande urged his nation to remain united and vigilant, and the city shut down a famed Jewish neighborhood amid fears of more violence. “The threats facing France are not finished,” Hollande said. “We are a free people who cave to no pressure.” The drama, which played out on live TV and social media, began with the brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi methodically massacring 12 people Wednesday at the Charlie Hebdo offices, stopping to shoot a wounded police officer in the head before driving off.

Ambulances arrive Friday in Dammartin-en-Goele, France, as part of an operation to seize two heavily armed men. French security forces swarmed the small industrial town northeast of Paris in an operation to capture the pair, who were suspected in the deadly storming of a satirical newspaper. On Thursday, a gunman police identified as Amedy Coulibaly shot a policewoman to death south of Paris, although authorities were not sure at first if it was related to the Charlie Hebdo shootings. It all ended at dusk Friday with near-simultaneous raids in two locations: a printing plant in the town of Dammartin-en-Goele, northeast of Paris, where the Kouachis were holed up, and the Paris supermarket where Coulibaly killed four hostages and threatened more violence unless the police let the Kouachis go. As scores of black-clad security forces surrounded both sites, booming explosions, heavy gunfire and dense smoke heralded the news that the twin sieges finally had ended. The three gunmen were dead – but the authorities also discovered four dead hostages at the market. Sixteen hostages were freed, one from the

printing plant and 15 others from the store. The attackers had ties both to each other and to terrorist activities that reached back years and extended from Paris to al-Qaida in Yemen. They epitomized Western authorities’ greatest fear: Islamic radicals who trained abroad and came home to stage attacks. After the killings at the Charlie Hebdo offices, Cherif Kouachi, 32, and his 34-yearold brother Said led police on a chase around northeastern France, robbing a gas station and stealing a car before ending up at the printing plant in Dammartin-en-Goele, near Charles de Gaulle airport. One of the brothers was wounded in the neck at one point during a shootout with police after he commandeered a car, Paris Prosecutor Francois Molins said. Authorities said the brothers temporarily took a man hostage at the plant but let him go, and a second man was

later discovered to have been hiding inside the building. A member of the al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula gave a statement in English to The Associated Press saying the group’s leadership “directed the operations and they have chosen their target carefully.” The attack was in line with warnings from the late al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden to the West about “the consequences of the persistence in the blasphemy against Muslim sanctities,” the member said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the group’s regulations do not permit him to give his name. The brothers were cornered there for much of the day before the explosions and gunfire rang out in the twilight and a police SWAT team clambered onto the roof. “They said they want to die as martyrs,” Yves Albarello, a local lawmaker inside the command post, told French television station i-Tele.

Details of the proposal

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – President Barack Obama on Friday proposed to bring the cost of two years of community college “down to zero” for all Americans, an ambitious nationwide plan based on a popular Tennessee program signed into law by that state’s Republican governor. However, the idea and its $60 billion federal price tag over 10 years would have to make the grade with a Republican Congress that is showing little appetite for new spending. Obama, who plans to push the issue in his Jan. 20 State of the Union address, argued that providing educational opportunity and creating a more skilled U.S. workforce shouldn’t be a partisan issue. “Community college should be free for those willing to work for it because, in America, a quality education should not be a privilege that is reserved for a few,” he said in a speech at Pellissippi State Community College. He said a high school diploma is no longer enough for American workers to compete in the global economy and that a college degree is “the surest ticket to the middle class.” The White House estimated that 9 million students could eventually participate and save an average of $3,800 in tuition per year if they attend full time. Participating schools would have to meet certain academic requirements, as would the students. At North Lake College, part of the Dallas County Community College system, student Courtney Banks said such a program would help her and others enroll in classes. “Other people, other young adults would be willing to get into school because it wouldn’t be so far out of reach,” she said. She added she’s still paying

n Students would have to go to school at least half-time, maintain a 2.5 grade point average and make progress toward a degree. n Colleges would have to offer either academic programs that fully transfer to four-year schools or job training programs with high graduation rates that lead to degrees and certificates sought by employers. n States would provide about a quarter of the costs of the program, maintain existing education investments and work to reduce the need for remedial classes. loans from a previous school. The White House said the federal government would pick up 75 percent of the cost and the final quarter would come from states that opt into the program – a cost of $20 billion over 10 years. Spokesman Eric Schultz said Obama will propose new programs to pay for the federal portion in his budget next month. Obama is calling the idea America’s College Promise, modeled after Tennessee Promise, which Republican Gov. Bill Haslam signed into law last year to provide free community and technical college tuition for two years. It has drawn 58,000 applicants, almost 90 percent of the state’s high school seniors. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Obama’s former White House chief of staff, has a similar program for students in his city. Obama brought Tennessee’s two Republican senators, Bob Corker and Lamar Alexander, with him on Air Force One for the event. But both said they thought states, not the federal government, should follow Tennessee’s lead. “Creating a federal program to me is not the way to get good things to happen in education,” Corker said.

SKETCH VIEW

Constituents left without having a say The Northwest Herald Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs down: To McHenry County Board members who voted against allowing John Hammerand to call into a meeting from Florida, where he spends winters because of bronchitis problems caused by cold weather. Under County Board rules, board members can attend meetings remotely if a simple majority of members allow it and certain criteria are met. The board’s 10-10 vote on the matter prevented Hammerand from participating in Tuesday’s meeting, meaning Hammerand’s constituents had one fewer board member representing their interests. While elected officials should make every effort to attend meetings in person, governmental bodies should err on the side of inclusion when exceptions like this arise. Thumbs up: To Andi Swenson, 23, and the people of Harvard who’ve rallied behind her in a brave battle against cystic fibrosis. Sadly, Swenson lost her battle Monday, but she won’t be forgotten and will be remembered with an 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. visitation Sunday at Harvard High School in the south gym. Swenson’s funeral is at 5 p.m. Donations may be made to the Breathe On Andi fund at Harvard State Bank to honor her memory. Thumbs up: To Woodstock High School environmental science teacher William Donato for working the past several years to mak a 30-acre span of woodland and wetland a place of ecological growth and education. The Woodstock City Council rightly honored the longtime teacher this week by naming the area the William C. Donato Conservation Area. Thumbs up: To area school districts for making early decisions and informing parents and students promptly on school closings. There are plenty of issues, such as child care, that come into play when school is called off. Having advanced notice when officials believe school should be canceled helps everybody involved. Thumbs down: To people constantly criticizing school officials for the decisions they make regarding student safety and calling off school. Regardless of the decision a school district makes, it will be criticized. Let these district officials make the decision they feel is best for students and faculty. They want your children in school just as much as you do.

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

Keystone XL Pipeline Act The purpose: To force approval of the Keystone XL Pipeline project. The vote: Passed in the House on Friday by 55 votes – 266 voted “yes,” 153 voted “no,” one voted “present” and nine didn’t vote. Local representation: U.S. Reps. Peter Roskam (R-6) and Randy Hultgren (R-14) voted “yes.”

Save American Workers Act of 2015 The purpose: Redefines full-time worker under the Affordable Care Act. The vote: Passed in the House on Thursday by 39 votes – 252 voted “yes,” 172 voted “no” and five didn’t vote. Local representation: U.S. Reps. Peter Roskam (R-6) and Randy Hultgren (R-14) voted “yes.” Source: The New York Times’ Inside Congress website

ANOTHER VIEW

Select marijuana sites We want to say we’re confused by the delay of Gov. Pat Quinn’s administration to select sites where medical marijuana will be grown. But we’re really not. In some ways, it seemed inevitable that the state would miss its selfimposed Dec. 31 deadline to select the sites. The main reason we thought there would be a delay is because the state created such a cloud of suspicion around the whole process by keeping secret the names of those who applied for the lucrative permits to grow medical marijuana in Illinois. Just a few of the would-be investors became public as they applied, where necessary, for local zoning permits. We can’t believe Quinn will let this issue fall in the lap of Bruce Rauner. Rauner, always lukewarm about medical marijuana, can’t overturn the legislation that made it legal in this state. But he could delay the permitting of grow sites and distribution centers even longer. That would be a shame. Not only for the investors who are awaiting permit decisions. But mainly for people like Jim Moschenrose of Altamont. He smokes marijuana to deal with chronic back pain. In November, he applied for a license to do it legally. Now he and hundreds of others are waiting and waiting for Quinn’s administration to move forward. Effingham Daily News

IT’S YOUR WRITE Brain cancer odds To the Editor: Once again, I have read the brain cancer story in McCullom Lake and came across the odds of getting the deadly form of glioblastoma multiforme brain cancer. I find it amazing they say it is typically seen in about three people per 100,000. I lost my wife to this deadly disease, along with a good neighbor. I also know of another resident that had the same disease, so that is three people in Algonquin that I know of, and I would say that beats the odds right there. I just wonder in a whole of McHenry County how many people

have come down with this deadly disease. I wonder whether there would be a way to find out how many people came down with this awful disease. Please sound off as I can’t believe these odds. Scott Pfluegner Algonquin

New trumps old To the Editor: Why is the city of McHenry spending upward of $5 million to build a new recreation center when there are existing spaces sitting empty and neglected, an eyesore to all? Can the old Wal-Mart building ac-

commodate free weights, aerobic machines, multipurpose rooms for rent and dance/fitness space? Can the vacant Target building be designed to accommodate future expansion, including two basketball courts and a running track? Does the city not already own an

outdoor pool, ready to be expanded into an aquatic center? I suppose I am mistaken, and new trumps old every time, regardless of cost. Sandra Minor McHenry

Bush, Huckabee get ready for nomination war WASHINGTON – Everything you need to know about the state of the Republican presidential race is explained by the schedules of the first two candidates to publicly dip their toes into the 2016 waters. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, like Willie Sutton going where the money is, was scheduled to fundraise in Greenwich, Connecticut, on Wednesday. By contrast, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who announced he would no longer host his show on Fox while he considers a run for president, heads to Iowa to pray and solidify the social conservative base that made him the front-runner for the nomination in 2008. Bush and Huckabee guarantee representation in the nomination race for the establishment and social conservative wings of the Republican Party. The standard-bearers for the isolationist, pro- and antiimmigration, internationalist, and proto-Cheney wings have yet to make themselves known. It sometimes seems Republicans have fewer differences with Democrats than with one another. The apparent impossibility of straddling this intra-party divide goes a long way toward explaining why some have been calling flip-floppy Mitt Romney the indispensable man to unite Republicans in 2016. Avoiding that rerun is one reason Bush has gotten such a hearty welcome by the establishment. In its autopsy of the 2012 debacle, the Republican National Committee decreed nothing was more important than blocking future mishaps such as the debates that resembled an amateur version of “The Voice” but with performers including

VIEWS Margaret Carlson Herman Cain bleating “9-9-9” and deposed Speaker Newt Gingrich, now with a CNN contract, devoting more time to his plans for colonizing the moon than to his ideas for creating jobs. But the party’s right-wing will be heard this time, too. Huckabee will test the waters with a book tour for his latest vanity project, “God, Guns, Grits, and Gravy,” a title whose alliteration covers all his bases, except gravitas. This follows Huckabee’s earlier volume, “Quit Digging Your Grave with a Knife and Fork: A 12-Stop Program to End Bad Habits and Begin a Healthy Lifestyle,” about a thin governor’s struggle to escape a 300-pound body. He hardly needs a vehicle. A Baptist pastor with a Gomer Pyle face, he’s been a fixture on Fox News since 2008 and a favorite on the inspirational speaking circuit. That’s on top of two terms as governor of Arkansas, where he wanted to quarantine AIDS patients, cut spending for arts that were deemed to look like pornography, restricted abortion and pushed covenant marriages (he and his wife had one). But Huckabee isn’t without vulnerabilities. He isn’t beloved by the small-government, lowtax economic conservative wing of his party. He raised taxes to improve schools, roads and health care in Arkansas. His understanding of the commandment to “love thy neighbor’’ inspired him to defend tuition breaks for undocumented im-

migrants so as “not to punish children for what their parents did.’’ He also supports the Common Core, which is anathema to many conservatives. While in office, nine ethics complaints were filed against him. Huckabee set up a nonprofit entity so he could give paid speeches without having to disclose the donors. He also charged taxpayers for his dry cleaning, his wife’s pantyhose, a doghouse and meals at Taco Bell. He paid himself (as media consultant) and the family’s baby sitter out of campaign funds. In the tradition of the Clintons, the Huckabees tried to claim furniture from the governor’s mansion as their own. When that didn’t work, they set up a bridal registry for gifts for their new home. He also had a Willie Horton problem. Huckabee granted more than 1,000 clemencies during 10 years in office, more than double the number granted by his three predecessors over 17 years, and more than in six neighboring states combined. That’s a lot of forgiveness, and one of his reasons for not running in 2012 when he led the pack (other than that his life was “really, really wonderful”) was that all that Christian forgiveness resulted in a couple of his parolees committing heinous crimes. Post governorship, Huckabee trimmed his positions to run to the right, toughening up on immigrants so much that he ended up with the endorsement of the Minuteman Project, the group in camouflage perched on plastic lawn chairs patrolling the Mexican border. He got square with economic conservatives, signing a pledge that he wouldn’t raise

taxes after being hit hard by the Club for Growth as a “serial tax hiker.’’ As Bush and Huckabee were staking out the ends of the Republican spectrum, a likely but unannounced candidate, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, threatened to blot out the spotlight. Christie was part of a group hug in the skybox of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones that quickly went viral. You can either see the scene as the ultimate in authenticity even when it hurts (if you don’t have a team to hate, the Cowboys will do) or as political tone-deafness of the sort displayed by former Florida Gov. Charlie Crist when he let President Barack Obama get in shoulder-squeezing range. At the very least, it isn’t a good visual for Joe Six Pack to be sitting in the expensive seats with a billionaire rather than in the cheap ones with the real fans. Christie is taking a victory lap from his year as chair of the Republican Governor’s Association, attending the inaugurations of the governors he helped elect and collecting some chit. Even as his orange be-sweatered belly bump played widely, the ever-blustery New Jersey governor doubled down on his love for Dallas, wondering aloud how he was going to get to the playoff game this week. For now, Christie (and Romney if he’s still playing) can afford to let the various strains of Christian Right candidates fight it out in Iowa (Rick Santorum anyone?) but he better be more worried about getting to the mansions of Greenwich than to a skybox in Green Bay. • Margaret Carlson is a Bloomberg View columnist.

MARIAN CENTRAL FOOTBALL

Maloney leaves Johnsburg after big turnaround By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Mike Maloney experienced the gamut of emotions Friday as he bid a difficult goodbye to one football program on the rise and said hello to another that is an established state power. Maloney, who took Johnsburg from 1-26 in its three previous seasons to 9-2 last fall, was announced as the new coach at Marian Central, where he met with players, administrators and some members of the coaching staff. Resplendent in his dark gray suit with a light blue shirt and red tie – Marian’s colors his wife, Sarah, selected – Maloney began laying out his plans to the players. “First and foremost, making sure we’re doing things the right way, which will be defined throughout the first few months,” Maloney said. “It’s going to focus on the human element and developing these guys into great men of character.

Three years later, Johnsburg was Big Northern Conference East Division champion and a playoff team loaded with young talent. The decision to leave Johnsburg was difficult for Maloney, who met with the Skyhawks on Friday morning before school. “It took a few days of thought and reflection,” Maloney said. “My No. 1 concern through this whole process was the thoughts and feelings of my older players at Johnsburg and the entire program. Those relationships that were forged the last three years are

He explained everything and made it a lot easier,” Conroy said. “I definitely understand and respect his decision.” Maloney, who played on the 1999 Class 4A state championship team at Joliet Catholic, now returns to the East Suburban Catholic Conference, regarded as one of the top leagues in the state. “Johnsburg was not an easy place for me to choose to leave,” Maloney said. “This is an opportunity I could not pass up.” Former Marian coach Ed Brucker retired after the Hurricanes went 7-5 last season, leaving him with a 101-36 record in 12 years. The popular choice to follow Brucker among Marian players and alumni was offensive coordinator Dirk Stanger.

R-B uses late 17-0 spurt to put away Streaks By JOE STEVENSON

Marian Central’s hire makes sense WOODSTOCK – Marian Central’s decision to hire Mike Maloney as its next head football coach surprised a lot of people. The logical successor was Dirk Stanger, who had served as coach Ed Brucker’s righthand man as offensive coordinator during a 12-year run when the Hurricanes went 10136 with 10 playoff appearances. Then there’s Maloney’s career record, 12-44. It sticks out like a sore thumb. “This doesn’t make much sense, very confused by the hire,” Bryan Bulaga, the Marian Central alum and Green Bay Packers right tackle, said Thursday night on Twitter. “There was no reason to bring a coach with a losing record in his career to a program that has a winning tradition. Dirk Stanger should be the head coach of this team and its [sic] [a] shame that he isn’t. I was totally caught off guard by this hire.” A 1993 Marian graduate, Stanger was the favorite among players and alumni (certainly Bulaga) to succeed the retiring Brucker. He tutored four straight NCAA Division I quarterbacks, and his offensive pedigree was well known. But let’s get something out of the way: Mike Maloney isn’t Dirk Stanger, and that’s OK. Take it from senior Bailey Stefka, who was a captain and a two-way starter at fullback and linebacker during Maloney’s three seasons as the Johnsburg head coach. “If I’m a Marian kid, I’m excited, because they got the best coach in the area coming

He completely changed the culture of Johnsburg football, and turned the whole program around.” The narrative has become well known around these parts. Johnsburg went 1-26 from 2011 to 2013. Then, in Year 3 under Maloney’s watch, the Skyhawks exploded, going 9-2, capturing the Big Northern Conference East Division title and winning their first Class 4A playoff game in five years. He breathed new life into the dormant program. That was no accident. He had a plan, and he stuck to it. The coach preached accountability and family, and the players bought in. With an abundance of talented underclassmen, Johnsburg looked poised for another banner season under Maloney. It was no flash in the pan. But Maloney, a Joliet Catholic alum, returns to the East Suburban Catholic Conference, where he’ll look to re-create the same magic.

The Rockets had steals, dunks, a crucial 3-pointer and other easy transition baskets to turn what had been a struggle with Woodstock for three-plus quarters into a runaway. R-B hit the Blue Streaks with 17 consecutive points over a five-minute stretch and pulled away for a 67-57 nonconference victory in Lou Ramirez Gymnasium.

Point guard Blaine Bayer sparked the 1-2-2 zone defense out top and hit a pivotal 3 during the 17-0 run. “We just started hitting shots, got momentum, got steals and got a couple of

dunks, that always helps, we always get excited for those,” said Bayer, who scored 16 points. “They were just giving me the ball and I hit some open shots. We started talking to each other and believing in each other. We can win this game.” R-B (9-3) trailed 53-48 with 6:15 to go after Woodstock’s Dan Shook hit a 3.

Pace makes good first impression LAKE FOREST – Let’s be completely honest here: We still know less than 1 percent of all that we need to learn about Ryan Pace, the new general manager of the Bears. After all, the Pace regime at Halas Hall is still less than 48 hours old. But Step 1 in the process is analyzing what you think the team needs in a new football boss, bullet-pointing a few essentials and then hoping you can cross them off as accomplished when the new guy walks through the door. I was of the opinion that it was crucial the Bears wipe away the Jerry Angelo/Phil Emery years with a fresh face with no prior attachment to the organization, but obviousAP photo ly newer isn’t always better.

We are not

just collecting athletes. We are acquiring football players that fit the Chicago Bears. There will be a major emphasis on character, toughness, instincts and intelligence.” That is a 180 degree turn from the Lovie Smith and Emery mantra of finding speed and athletes and hoping they become players. Next on my list was whether the Bears find a New Age young man who grasped the significance of this opportunity. “This is a dream for me,” Pace said. “You only get one first shot.

BOYS BASKETBALL: McHENRY 48, CRYSTAL LAKE SOUTH 46 (3OT)

O’Toole’s layup ends 3-overtime thriller By MIKE DeFABO mdefabo@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – With just 0.8 seconds remaining in triple overtime, McHenry sophomore Matthew Mohr cocked the basketball behind his head and let if fly, sending it sailing down the court with one part baseball pass and one part Hail Mary. Junior small forward Brian O’Toole leaped at the free-throw line, tipped it to the floor with his right hand and laid it into the hoop with his left hand. The buzzer sounded. O’Toole had done it. In a game filled

with clutch shots and late-second heroics, O’Toole sank the game winner in triple overtime to give the Warriors a 48-46 upset victory in what many players called the most trilling (if not the longest) game they ever had experienced. “Best feeling of my life right there,” O’Toole said when the commotion finally died down. O’Toole chest bumped junior Antonio Calabrese, who came flying off the bench in celebration. The rest of the bench players spilled onto the court. McHenry coach Tim Paddock, still dressed in his gray blazer and orange tie, hopped across the floor. The entire

McHenry student section followed. “I could cry, cheer, everything,” Paddock said. He looked like he might. Tears welled in his eyes as he stood just outside of the visitors’ locker room, where the celebration continued for the Warriors (4-11). Just down the hall, South coach Matt LePage was straight faced, almost in disbelief his Gators fell to 10-5. “It’s pretty tough to catch it, dribble it and shoot it in 0.8, but that’s how they saw it,” he said. “It’s tough to end a game on that type of a controversy, but they’ll get the win and we won’t.”

[The turnovers] came in waves.” Woodstock outrebounded R-B, 40-23, but the Streaks turned the ball over 22 times to the Rockets’ 11. “We just got silly,” Streaks coach Al Baker said. “We did not stick to what worked for us in the first three quarters. You can’t win a game with 22 turnovers against a good team. There were several adjustments that needed to be made and we didn’t make them.” Creason said it was a “coach’s decision” that St. Pierre, a 6-foot-9 sophomore drawing NCAA Division I interest, did not play more. But he was pleased with the fire St. Pierre showed in the fourth quarter. “When Joe plays like he’s capable, he’s hard to stop,” Creason said. “The trick for Joe is understanding he needs to play like that all the time. We’re working on it.” St. Pierre scored twice inside, then tipped in his own miss for a 54-53 lead. Then, R-B got a quick steal and Bayer nailed his fourth 3 of the game. The Rockets got another steal and Bayer missed a 3, but Banks rebounded and flipped a pass to St. Pierre for a dunk. “I just got some momentum. Something clicked,” St. Pierre said. “We had some big defensive stops and some tips, that really helped us.” R-B hit 9 of 15 field goals in the fourth quarter, most coming in the lane. “We started playing fast, playing how we need to play,” Bayer said. “It was fun.” Kyle Grillot – kgrillot@shawmedia.com Kubiak led all players with 19 points and nine rebounds, while Mason Sutter added Richmond-Burton’s Reggie Banks shoots as he is guarded by Woodstock’s Nick Kubiak during nine points and 13 rebounds for the Streaks. the second quarter Friday in Richmond.

Bessey then got a steal on the next possession, forcing the Chargers to foul. “Obviously you never want to go through a period of time that long without a point,” Benson said. “But one thing we didn’t do is let it affect the defensive side of the ball.

The senior guard did not score again. The Chargers had a chance to tie the score again after Connor Boesch, who led the

Red Raiders with 11 points, made one of two free throws to stretch Huntley’s lead to three with 19.5 seconds remaining. Boesch’s free throw and Bessey’s layup were the only three points scored by Huntley in the fourth. After a couple of timeouts, Seals’ inbounds pass was stolen by Alec Coss, and time eventually ran out on the Chargers. “Everyone is going to look back on the last play, but we had other chances,” D-C coach Lance Huber said. “We missed some easy shots, and they really had some offensive rebounds that hurt us. So there’s a lot to look at other than the last play not working.” “It’s all about us getting better as a team,” Benson said. “We are starting to become more consistent, and I think that’s crucial in a conference where anyone can beat anyone on any given night.”

BOYS BASKETBALL: PRAIRIE RIDGE 57, WOODSTOCK NORTH 32

PR defense stifles Jandron, Thunder By TIM SIECK sports@nwherald.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The Prairie Ridge boys basketball team, like so many others, had its preparation time cut down this week because of bad weather, leaving no time to prepare for Woodstock North. But the Wolves played one of their best games of the season in a 57-32 Fox Valley Conference Fox Division win over the Thunder on Friday at Prairie Ridge High School. Prairie Ridge (6-9,2-1 FVC Fox) set the tone early. The Wolves came out with fantastic ball movement and were able to get open looks inside that were converted by Joey Kinowski, who had six early points, eight for the game. Prairie Ridge jumped out to a quick 9-2 lead and was in control. The Thunder (3-10, 0-2) put together a run of their own to close the Wolves’ lead to two points late in the first quarter. The theme of the second quarter was second-chance points, as the Wolves dominated the boards, 12-2, and outscored the Thunder, 11-3. Prairie Ridge held Woodstock North in check offensively. In order to slow down Woodstock North, a team must limit senior guard Josh Jandron. Prairie Ridge held Jandron to three points on 1 of 5 shooting through the first three quarters. The Thunder guard ended up with 14 points on the evening, well below his season average of 23.8. Wolves coach Corky Card was happy with how his team played against Jandron. “Josh Jandron is probably the best point guard in our conference,” Card said. “He not only is a fantastic shooter

Kinowski and Cory Lamb added eight points each for Prairie Ridge. “Tonight was probably the best we’ve passed the ball all season,” Card said. “We did a great job of making the extra pass which resulted in a lot of open looks.” Woodstock North struggled to get anything going offensively. Jandron led the Thunder with 14 points while Vic Ortiz added eight points. “We turned the ball over way too much again tonight,” Woodstock North coach Steve Ryan said. “We are a lot better than we played tonight, but when you don’t take care of the ball you really don’t have much of a chance to win.”

BEARS

Stanger passed over, resigns Pace has coaching blueprint By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com Dirk Stanger had hoped for years that he would succeed Ed Brucker as head football coach at Marian Central. Stanger learned Thursday night that would not happen when he spoke to Hurricanes athletic director Drew Potthoff. Stanger, the popular choice among Marian alumni and current players, had been part of the Hurricanesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; staff for 12 seasons, most recently as offensive coordinator and assistant head coach. Marian announced former Johnsburg coach Mike Maloney would be its new head football coach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously, I was very dis-

appointed,â&#x20AC;? said Stanger, who resigned his coaching position after receiving the news. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought I had a pretty good plan to link the past history to the future ... overall just disappointed.â&#x20AC;? Twitter was abuzz with Dirk Stanger support for Stanger on Thursday night. He had assumed more coaching responsibilities in recent years as Brucker helped prepare him to be a head coach. Stanger worked extensively with Marianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quarterbacks, the last four of whom played at NCAA Division I schools. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ed was giving me a little

bit more and more,â&#x20AC;? Stanger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It started with the offense and went into some of the head coaching duties, covering things for him.â&#x20AC;? There are head coaching vacancies at Crystal Lake Central and Woodstock, but Stanger said he has not interviewed at either school. He did not know what his next step would be. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got some opportunities out there, some people have contacted me,â&#x20AC;? Stanger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I need to kind of digest this and figure some things out. I have to have faith that Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a plan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Overall, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disappointing. No. 1, I appreciate all the players that I coached there. I appreciate all the texts, tweets and phone calls Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gotten from people who supported me.â&#x20AC;?

By ARTHUR ARKUSH aarkush@shawmedia.com LAKE FOREST â&#x20AC;&#x201C; When Ryan Pace reflects on his 14 years spent with the Saints organization, the moment he pinpoints that turned a woebegone franchise into one of the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true powerhouses was the 2006 hiring of head coach Sean Payton by general manager Mickey Loomis. The Saints, Pace recalled Friday while being introduced as the sixth general manager in the history of the Bears, were coming off a 3-13 season, in which they were forced to play all of their games on the road because of Hurricane Katrina. The adversity was too much to withstand for then-coach Jim Haslett, who was fired after the season.

Loomis tabbed Payton, who, in his first year, led a worst-tofirst turnaround, as the Saintsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; win total increased by seven and they went all the way to the NFC Championship game before falling to the Bears. Inheriting a team that, like the 2005 Saints, many think requires a total rebuild, Pace finds himself in Loomisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; shoes. Unlike Loomis, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never hired a coach before. But after watching the success of Payton, Pace said he has a clear vision for some of the attributes he hopes to find in the Bearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; next head coach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When Sean got to New Orleans, obviously he had come from Bill Parcells,â&#x20AC;? said Pace. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So right away, you felt that discipline, immediately as he entered the building and we needed that as a team in 2006.â&#x20AC;?

Like Paytonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disciplinarian approach, his â&#x20AC;&#x153;confident and charismaticâ&#x20AC;? personality, Pace soon realized, were equally important to the steady progress the Saints made in their trajectory to the Super Bowl. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When a head coach gets in front of the room â&#x20AC;Ś heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s selling his plan to the players. And there needs to be buy-in. Sean Payton has that, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be looking for some of those qualities,â&#x20AC;? Pace said. The two most important relationships within an NFL organization, according to Pace, are the one between a general manager and head coach, and the bond between the coach and quarterback. The former is critical for a number of reasons, perhaps most importantly the process of evaluating and acquiring talent.

was clear from the start of the news conference that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to happen. But, I do feel a lot better after hearing Phillips say this about how the football business will be run. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He has total control over the football operations â&#x20AC;&#x201C; how he wants to structure the department, the people he might want to keep, new people he might want to bring in. His whole plan, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s his call.â&#x20AC;? Those thoughts were echoed by McCaskey and Pace as well as assurance that Pace has final say over the head coach. I think we can all live with that. Finally, there was a concern over whether the same people who hired Emery and Trestman could get it right on their own this time, or would they listen to their accom-

plished hired gun, Ernie Accorsi? McCaskey corrected an incorrect perception thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been floating around in the media when he told us that Accorsi has, in fact, sat in on every interview theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve conducted. And when asked how he felt about gambling on such a young talent, McCaskey told us, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ernie (Accorsi) had a good analogy. He said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;When you see that great young quarterback, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to take him.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the analogy he applied to Ryan.â&#x20AC;? Sounds like this is as much an Accorsi hire as a Phillips or McCaskey hire to me, and I feel pretty good about that.

I can control what I can control,â&#x20AC;? Maloney said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope to earn their respect and their confidence through my example and pride of this community. Just knowing that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here as a servant for Marian Central Catholic.â&#x20AC;? His record is, of course, tough to reconcile, and probably should come attached with footnotes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if you can look at it on paper,â&#x20AC;? heeded Dan Sharp, Maloneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coach at JCA, in October. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had to look at the situations heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had.â&#x20AC;? The situations were as follows. He was 2-7 in one season at St. Ignatius College Prep, which competes in the stout Chicago Catholic League that boasts powerhouses such as Mount Carmel. He was 0-18 in two seasons at Joliet Central, which still hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t won a game since splitting from Joliet Township in 2010. He was 1-17 at Johnsburg when competing in the bigger Fox Valley Conference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You could say what you want about the guyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record, but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really show what kind of coach he is,â&#x20AC;? Stefka said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I mean, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot better than his record. He works his butt off for everyone, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pay off. He puts so much effort into the program. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s constantly working â&#x20AC;&#x201C; night and day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; trying to get everyone better.â&#x20AC;? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plenty reason to think the Hurricanes will get better under Maloney. Ties to McHenry County? Check. After three seasons coaching in the FVC and the BNC East, he should draw local talent. Experience in the ESCC? Check. The coach also spent two seasons as an assistant under Sharp in the mid-2000s. Winning pedigree? Check. As a player, he was a defensive lineman on the Illinois Fighting Illiniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2002 Sugar Bowl team and an all-state, two-way starter on Joliet Catholicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1999 Class 4A state title team. Command of a program? Check. Toward the end of last season, Maloney had Johnsburg playing as well as any area team, winning nine straight games, shutting out opponents and winning games by scores of 62-14. Will all of this translate to Marian? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a safe bet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The potential is endless,â&#x20AC;? Maloney said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So the expectations are to succeed at the highest potential each and every year. If this still seems like a head scratcher, it shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stay one for long. â&#x20AC;˘ Northwest Herald sports reporter Joey Kaufman can be reached at jkaufman@ shawmedia.com or on Twitter @joeyrkaufman.

Marian superintendent Thomas Landers, while introducing Maloney to the players, said having Maloney as a teacher in the building daily also was a factor in his hiring. Stanger does not teach at Marian, and Brucker, who retired from Woodstock High School in 2003, taught for six years at Marian but not since then. Maloney will serve as director of admissions and marketing and also teach a partial class load in physical education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When a teacher works in our building with our teaching staff, sees our students daily and communicates with fellow teachers every day, they

become immersed in the culture and mission of our school and the goals and challenges of our students,â&#x20AC;? Landers said. Marian athletic director Drew Potthoff is friends with Joliet Catholic coach Dan Sharp and had followed Maloneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s six years as a head coach. He was 12-44 in those six years, including one at St. Ignatius and two at Joliet Central. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything stands out about Mike â&#x20AC;&#x201C; his presence, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dynamic, football aside. He is what an athletic director or principal or superintendent would look for to lead their football program and young men,â&#x20AC;? Potthoff said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you could have been in here, you would have seen the way he demands the kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; attention.â&#x20AC;?

Continued from page C1

â&#x20AC;&#x153;From the moment I walked into the building and I met (chairman) George (McCaskey) and I met (team president) Ted (Phillips), I could just feel it. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m telling you, I feel it here. This is going to be set up to win and sustain success. Once I got into the building, I met the ownership, the historic franchise, the city of Chicago, coming back to Illinois, my wife is from here, everything just felt right and again I trust my instincts and my gut and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here.â&#x20AC;? Two-for-two. Next, I thought it was critical that Phillips be removed from the football side of the operation, and I was concerned this morning when it

WIZARDS 102, BULLS 86

Aching Noah ineffective in defeat By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com WASHINGTON – Tom Thibodeau is fond of saying, “I’m concerned about everything,” whenever the Bulls coach is discussing his team. He can go ahead and put Joakim Noah atop that list after Friday’s 102-86 loss to the Wizards at the Verizon Center. Not only was Noah 1 for 5 from the field, scoring three points, but defensively he allowed Washington big men Marcin Gortat and Nene to almost run layup lines most of the evening, as the two combined for 36 points. Whether it’s the left knee that was supposed to be a “minor surgery” in the offseason, or Noah still trying to find his place with AP photo the addition of Pau Gasol to the Wizards guard Bradley Beal passes around Bulls center paint and the return of Derrick Joakim Noah in the second half Friday in Washington. The Rose to the backcourt, it’s tough Bulls lost, 102-86. to say.

Not for Thibodeau, however, who detailed the troubles returning from the knee have given his defending Defensive Player of the Year. “He’s still working through things,” Thibodeau said. “He’s out there battling. He’ll find his way. “The thing is, you hate to see him get frustrated. It’s been a very long rehab for him. He has to continue to work at it. Almost have a blind faith that it’s going to work out and it will. He’s putting time in. We need him.” Thibodeau was asked why he thought it would work out, and responded, “Just as he gets his timing, continues to strengthen his leg. All that stuff takes a lot of time. And you can’t get frustrated with it. You’ve got to just keep on working, and it will get better.” The Sun-Times reported in October that Noah’s knee would be a season-long issue, and al-

though the team has done its best to downplay just how much of a hill the All-Star center has to climb, the ball doesn’t lie in this case. Even on a minutes restriction, Noah’s scoring is down from 12.6 points a game last season to 8.2, while his rebounding went from 11.3 a night to 9.8. His dropping statistics are heavily influenced by the addition of Gasol and the fact that the offense no longer has to run through him with Rose back at the point, but the explosion and multi-effort that made Noah the ultimate blue-collar player is definitely inconsistent at best this season. Noah has been guarded about his knee situation most of the season, and the loss to the Wizards didn’t change that. “I’ll be all right, I’ll be all right,” Noah responded, when asked about the knee. How exactly did he know he

would be all right? “Just keep working,” Noah said. “I’m a worker and I’m never going to stop until I get it right.” The one player who did actually get it right in the loss, or at least better than he had been over the past six games, was Rose. Rose made headlines earlier in the day, explaining his reason for not attending a White House tour with his teammates Thursday, insisting this was a “business trip.” He approached it that way, scoring 19 points on 8-for-19 shooting – much improved over the 25.5 percent shooting he had displayed over the previous six games. Then again, even Rose couldn’t help his team overcome a 30-13 first-quarter deficit. “Energy once again,” Rose said of what was missing early. “Just got to figure it out.”

OILERS 5, BLACKHAWKS 2

Resurgent Oilers knock off Hawks The ASSOCIATED PRESS EDMONTON, Alberta – Derek Roy had a goal and two assists to lift the Edmonton Oilers to a 5-2 victory over the Blackhawks on Friday night. Benoit Pouliot, Jeff Petry, Nail Yakupov and Taylor Hall also scored for the Oilers, who are 3-1-2 under interim coach Todd Nelson since he took over sole coaching responsibilities when general manager Craig MacTavish moved back upstairs from the bench. The Oilers had lost 20 of their previous 21 games before the recent surge. Brandon Saad had a pair of goals for the Hawks, who have lost two of their past three. The Hawks started the scoring 7½ minutes into the first period as Edmonton’s Ben Scrivens was able to make an initial stop on the Hawks’ Jonathan Toews, but the Oilers’ defense let Saad skate in unmarked to put the rebound into the net for

his 11th goal. Edmonton got the goal back just over a minute later as Pouliot tucked a puck past Antti Raanta during a scramble in front of the Hawks’ net. The Oilers went up 2-1 on the power play with late in the opening frame. Teddy Purcell fed a puck in front of the Hawks’ net and Roy came racing in to deflect it past Raanta. The Hawks tied it six minutes into the second period as Oilers defenseman Nikita Nikitin allowed a 2-on-1, and Marian Hossa elected to shoot on the play and the rebound came directly to Saad, who scored his second goal of the game. Edmonton came flying back to regain the lead only 46 seconds later as Petry joined the rush and slipped the rebound from Yakupov’s shot through Raanta’s legs to make it 3-2. Scrivens kept his team in the lead with five minutes left in the second period as he made a huge stop on Andrew Shaw.

SPORTS BRIEFS Drug-plagued former Mavs victories from the 2010 season center Tarpley dead at 50 were vacated by the NCAA ARLINGTON, Texas – Roy Tarpley, the former Dallas Mavericks star center whose NBA career was cut short by drug abuse, has died. He was 50. A Tarrant County medical examiner’s report said Tarpley died Friday afternoon at Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital. No cause of death was given in the online report. The 7-foot Tarpley was the seventh pick in the 1986 NBA draft out of Michigan. He played for the Mavs until October 1991, when he was kicked out of the NBA for using cocaine. He played in Greece until the NBA reinstated him in 1994. He signed a six-year, $20 million contract with the Mavericks but was permanently banned from the NBA in December 1995 for using alcohol and violating the terms of a court-imposed personal aftercare program.

because of rules violations by Tressel and Ohio State players. Snyder orchestrated one of the greatest turnarounds in college football history at Kansas State, which had lost more football games than any program when he took over in 1989. He was eligible for induction while still active because he turned 75 last year.

By STEPHEN HAWKINS FRISCO, Texas – Three-time defending national champion North Dakota State and Illinois State shared a conference title without having to play each other this season. Until now, with a much bigger trophy at stake for the Missouri Valley Football Conference co-champions in the Football Championship Subdivision game Saturday. “It’s really cool to get to play the conference championship at the same time as the national championship,” North Dakota State quarterback Carson Wentz said. “Who’s the better team? It’s going to be settled,” Illinois State running back Marshaun Coprich said. “Might as well, whoever wins, take both [trophies].” North Dakota State (14-1) again made it from Fargo to Frisco and is going for an unprecedented fourth consecutive title in the FCS. The Redbirds (13-1) are making their first FCS championship game appearance. With the eight-game league schedule in the 10-team MVFC, each team misses one conference foe. North Dakota State and Illinois State didn’t meet in the regular season for the first time in eight years. “Yeah, it’s kind of cool that it ended up like that ... finally facing each other in the national championship,” said NDSU safety Christian Dudzik, set for his 61st-straight start. “It’s like a storyline, or scripted.” This is the first time two teams from the same conference face off in the FCS championship game. The only loss for both teams was to Northern Iowa, which Illinois State beat in a rematch in the Redbirds’ playoff opener a month ago. Now they get another conference foe. “Early in the season, kind of eyeballed this, thought that would be something if that happened, and you’re just kind of fantasizing really,” Illinois State coach Brock Spack said. “When we started getting on a roll, I said this could happen.” A few other things to know about the FCS championship game, being

Maintain healthy Project investigates what makes people happy eating habits during menopause Dear Dr. K: Does menopause cause weight gain? Dear Reader: In the United States, women typically go through menopause between 47 and 59 years of age. And the average woman gains about one pound a year around the time of menopause. Not surprisingly, we tend to assume that menopause causes weight gain. Research suggests there is no direct link between menopause and weight gain. But menopause may play an indirect role. For example, poor sleep can lead to weight gain. And many menopausal women have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep. Lack of sleep may alter the hormones that regulate hunger. If you’re not sleeping well, you may feel hungrier before meals and less full after meals. Stress also can play a role in weight gain. At menopause, the body stops making the hormone estrogen. This reduces the body’s ability to regulate the hormone cortisol, which helps to manage stress. Higher cortisol levels may trigger an increase in appetite. Other changes that occur around the same time as menopause also may contribute to weight gain. As women age, muscle mass decreases and fat mass increases. This slows metabolism. As a result, the body burns off fewer calories than it did previously. Many women’s eating patterns change around menopause, because of other changes in their lives. When children move out of the house, some women may no longer cook or eat dinner regularly. Eating infrequently or skipping meals can slow metabolism, further interfering with your body’s ability to burn calories. There’s another reason eating patterns start to change

Dear Abby: I am a senior in high school. As part of the English program, each senior must assemble a senior project. For mine, I decided to research happiness. I have researched what makes Americans happy and the brain process that takes place when people feel joy. As someone who reads questions all day about people’s problems, I would like to know what makes you happy. Do you have any hobbies or favorite pastimes? Do you have a favorite place to go to cheer you up? What do you think about to cheer yourself up? Thank you for your time and consideration. I can’t wait to hear back from you.

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff around menopause, when kids move out of the house. I’ve had several patients who told me they always prepared healthy meals when they had kids at home. They knew what kids ate as children could affect their health in later years. But when the kids left, and they were cooking only for themselves and their spouses, they started preparing higher-calorie meals, with less healthy foods. Many women also change how they carry their weight around menopause. Fat tends to move from the hips to the abdomen (belly). Even if this shift in fat stores does not cause an increase in weight, increased abdominal fat does increase the risk of many serious health conditions. These include heart disease, high blood pressure, insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes. If you find yourself gaining weight at midlife, refocus on the basics: • Eat a healthful diet. • Practice portion control. • Eat at regular intervals and avoid skipping meals. • Be physically active. • Find ways to manage your stress. • Get enough sleep. These tips may help you to maintain your weight. Even better, they may help you lose weight before, during and after menopause. Avoiding excess weight gain will lower your risks of diabetes and heart disease. It also will help you to live a more healthful life.

lives of the individuals who write to me. While I enjoy an occasional concert, play or film – and getting together with friends – much of my happiness is derived from my work. When I need a lift, I think about the blessings I have – a loving husband, that we’re both healthy, that we have friends to laugh with, that I have the ability to exercise, enjoy my favorite flower and the warmth of walking in the sunshine. And I remember to be grateful for all of them. Dear Abby: I’m a 14-year-old girl, and I have had a great relationship with my parents since I was a baby. I have always felt I have the perfect family. I can talk to them about anything and love spending time with them.

Lately, though, I have begun fighting with my dad almost every day. They’re never big or scary fights, just arguments that leave us both angry and disgruntled. He says I have a newly developed “attitude.” I say he has a bit of a temper. Neither of us is willing to back down. We have talked about our constant arguing, but we honestly don’t know how to fix it. He recently suggested family counseling, but I’m not sure if it has gone that far yet.

That way, anyone can pull a sheet off the roll to clean up a mess or wipe their hands if they don’t want to use a hand towel. I’ve never seen one in anyone’s bathroom, but I don’t know why. – Janet In New Jersey Dear Janet: Even though you haven’t seen one, I’m sure you’re not the only one to think of it.

When driving, do you ever: • Eat, drink or smoke • Tune the radio • Pick up something from the floor or between the seats • Read or write • Reach for the glove compartment • Talk on the cell phone • Clean the inside of the windshield • Comb, brush or fix your hair • Argue with another passenger • Put on makeup • File, clip or polish your nails • Put in contact lenses? If you answered “yes” to any of these distractions when driving, you are at risk for a crash. According to Jesse White, Secretary of State in Illinois, 10 percent of all fatal crashes are caused by drivers who were not paying attention to driving and nearly a quarter of all crashes – both fatal and nonfatal – were caused by distracted drivers. In our country, that’s more than 1.5 million crashes a year with more than 4,300 crashes each and every day. Be a safe and wise teen. Drive with caution and obey all traffic laws. You are much too important to become a traffic statistic.

We are currently seeking 25 people to participate in an innovative 12 Week Massage Study Do you suffer from any of the following:

• Neck Pain • Headaches • Back Pain (Lower, Middle, Upper) • Poor Circulation • Neck or Back Stiffness • Fatigue

Teens: Becoming a responsible driver after receiving your driving permit is always a goal, but many times youthful exuberance overpowers good judgment, and the result can be devastating. Poor driving habits are not confined to young drivers, but statistics reported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration show that drivers younger than 24 are responsible for 39 percent of crashes that cause injury or death even though this age group has only 19 percent of our licensed drivers. Excess speed is the major driving flaw of young drivers, followed by inattention – not keeping one’s eyes on the road. Some teens can say that they never speed when behind the wheel, but can you say that you pay full attention to the task of driving? The NHTSA reminds drivers that many crashes are caused by actions as simple as tuning the radio or as innocent as glancing at a dog on the sidewalk. Carelessness or inattention, even for a split second to change a radio station, can cause a disaster. Research shows inattention causes 68 percent of rear-end crashes. Do you use a cell phone while driving? If you do, your chance of getting into a crash increases by a whopping 400 percent. When dialing a phone number or engaging in intense conversation, the driver is not watching the road like he or she should. The best defense is to pull off the road and stop in a safe place before using the phone. Answer the following questions honestly with a yes or no to see if you are a conscientious driver or if you need to change your driving habits:

“BIG HERO 6”

“THE GAMBLER” STARRING: Mark Wahlberg, Jessica Lange, John Goodman PLOT: Lit professor and gambler Jim Bennett’s debt causes him to borrow money from his mother and a loan shark. RATED: R for language throughout and for some sexuality/nudity TIME: 1 hour, 51 minutes VERDICT: “If you’re not a genius, don’t bother,” the English professor played by Mark Walhberg in “The Gambler” blithely tells his students. That should be one clue you’re not gonna like this guy. But there’s a bigger problem with that line, because it inadvertently makes us think: If you’re not doing a genius remake of an old movie, why bother? Director Rupert Wyatt’s new version of the 1974 drama that starred James Caan as a self-destructive gambler lacks the bite and heft of the first. It also largely wastes an excellent cast. At the center is Wahlberg, a talented and appealing actor who is either miscast or misguided here. As Jim Bennett, a professor with a dangerous addiction to gambling, he’s cool, slick, handsome – and that’s pretty much it. We don’t understand why people keep giving this infuriating character another chance – like his mother (an excellent Jessica Lange). Or like Amy (Brie Larson), the thoughtful student in Jim’s class. It’s clear that Jim doesn’t know when to stop. At blackjack, he’ll win, and win again, and then bet it all – until he loses. Most of the movie’s good lines pretty much all go to John Goodman, who livens up the proceedings each time he appears. Somehow, Jim will have to figure out how to save himself. The ending – a departure from the original, again – is satisfyingly creative and suspenseful. By then, though, it feels too late. We didn’t really care enough about Jim to be invested in his ultimate fate. They sorta lost us at hello. – The

“THE IMITATION GAME” STARRING: Benedict Cumberbatch, Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode

PLOT: English mathematician and logician Alan Turing helps crack the Enigma code during World War II. RATED: PG-13 for some sexual references, mature thematic material and historical smoking TIME: 1 hour, 54 minutes VERDICT: It seems to be a good time for based-on-fact movies about smart British people. “The Theory of Everything” is earning accolades, and will probably garner an Oscar nomination or two, for its story of Stephen Hawking. And now we’ve got “The Imitation Game” and the lesser-known but, in some circles, equally important Alan Turning, the man responsible for breaking a German coding system and cutting down the length of World War II. It’s one of those films that jumps around in time, ostensibly to build tension and to flesh out certain characters by explaining what makes them tick. It jumps around a bit too much for some tastes, mine included, but the story and characters are fascinating enough to get by that glitch. The film is mostly a study of Turing, and how he did and/or didn’t work with others. Director Morten Tyldum keeps the pace slow, and gives the film the shape of a quiet, ticking-clock thriller. He also takes time out to show off some stunning visual work, especially when presenting his vision of the London Blitz of 1940. History tells us that Turing and his team succeeded at their task. But a whole other layer of intrigue, about some negative effects of

their accomplishments, enters late in the film, as does another layer, concerning Turing’s private life, after that. Though a true hero, Turing came to a bad ending, in the eyes of the government, but was posthumously given a royal pardon for his “wrongs” in 2013. This film helps to bring on some of the deserved justice.”– More

“INTO THE WOODS” STARRING: Anna Kendrick, Meryl Streep, Chris Pine

PLOT: A witch tasks a childless baker and his wife with procuring magical items from classic fairy tales to reverse the curse put on their family tree. RATED: PG for thematic elements, fantasy action and peril and some suggestive material TIME: 2 hours, 4 minutes VERDICT: This is one Disney film that’s definitely not a light fairy tale. For those unfamiliar with Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s 1987 Broadway musical, that fact might come as a surprise. Fans, meanwhile, probably will be left wondering where the subversive edge has gone. Devotees might scoff, but director Rob Marshall, his team and his charismatic cast have created a deliriously dark and engrossing spectacle – until the last 45 minutes, when it all falls apart. “Into the Woods” brings together the stories of Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Jack and the Beanstalk (Daniel Huttlestone), Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), and Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy) when a witch (Meryl Streep) challenges a Baker (James Corden) and his wife (Emily Blunt) to retrieve a number of objects. Blunt and Corden anchor the film with their humanity and humor, while Streep, sporting a ratty, cerulean blue mane, belts her way out of “Mamma Mia” prison and into our musical goodwill, delivering some of the film’s most emotional moments. Kendrick is as delightful as possible as an indecisive Cinderella, too, but the biggest surprise comes from Chris Pine who proves his comedic prowess by carrying on our modern tradition of poking fun at the idea of “Prince Charming.” The most glaring issue with “Into the Woods” is the story itself. Just when you think it’s reached an appropriate conclusion, you glance at your watch and realize there’s still nearly half a film left. Things get infinitely weirder and darker and end up nullifying most of what was captivating in the first part. The film looks timeless with its gothic intricacy and disinterest in being modern or trendy. Also the perpetually present wind and sweeping overhead shots of the village and woods makes it feel like you are indeed somewhere real. But the magic drains as the minutes wear on – that’s the danger of teasing the audience with a false ending.

“NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM: SECRET OF THE TOMB” STARRING: Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Owen Wilson

PLOT: Larry spans the globe, uniting favorite and new characters while embarking on an epic quest to save the magic before it is gone forever. RATED: PG for mild action, some rude humor and brief language TIME: 1 hours, 37 minutes VERDICT: Take heed: There are at least two acutely sad moments involving Robin Williams’ Teddy Roosevelt in the latest “Night at the Museum.” The movie, subtitled “Secret of the Tomb,” is imbued with the unshakable inevitability that even though we’re still having

fun, it’s time to move on – a narrative made only more poignant by Williams’s sudden and shocking death earlier this year. It’s hard not to concentrate on his every movement and word or to get antsy when he’s in the midst of a bit and the camera cuts away to a monkey peeing on something, leaving us straining to hear Williams’ voice. And yet, as silly a role and movie as this is, it also manages to live up to the (unfair) responsibility of being a comedy legend’s last role. Director Shawn Levy and his team strike the right balance, without overwhelming the story with melancholy. Beyond Williams, “Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb” is a lively romp with the over-the-top historical figures that audiences have come to enjoy over the years. As in the previous movies, “Secret of the Tomb” buckles under the weight of its phenomenally talented cast who just aren’t given enough to do, making it feel more like a movie of cameos rather than a true ensemble work. That said, Owen Wilson and Steve Coogan, once again, provide many of the film’s laughs as the pint-sized Jedediah and Octavius – as does Ricky Gervais as the wimpy museum director. In the end, “Secret of the Tomb” certainly wasn’t necessary, but its earnest goofiness is hard to resist. The bittersweet goodbye to Williams just makes it all the more worthwhile. – The Associated Press

“SELMA” STARRING: David Oyelowo, Carmen Ejogo, Tim Roth PLOT: A chronicle of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s campaign to secure equal voting rights via an epic march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama. RATED: PG-13 for disturbing thematic material including violence, a suggestive moment and brief strong language TIME: 2 hours, 8 minutes VERDICT: One of the most vexing facts of cinematic life in the past 50 years is that Martin Luther King Jr. and the civil rights movement he led have not been given their rightful place in the feature-film canon. Until now. And it was worth the wait. With “Selma,” director Ava DuVernay has created a stirring, often thrilling, uncannily timely drama that works on several levels at once. Yes, it’s an impressive historic pageant, and one that will no doubt break the ice for similar-themed movies to come. But DuVernay, whose roots are in the indie world, having directed the films “I Will Follow” and “Middle of Nowhere,” also has rescued King from his role as a worshiped – and sentimentalized – secular saint. Here, she presents him as a dynamic figure of humanscale contradictions, flaws and supremely shrewd political skills. Indeed, the most riveting passages of “Selma,” which chronicles three marches King planned and finally led from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama, in 1965, aren’t the speeches and ground-level skirmishes that led up to the marches. Rather, the most pulse-quickening material can be found in the meetings between King (David Oyelowo) and President Lyndon B. Johnson (Tom Wilkinson) as they argued the issue of voting rights. The filmmakers didn’t have access to the rights to King’s speeches, so in a brilliant workaround, DuVernay approximates his words, allowing viewers to focus on their meaning rather than how literally Oyelowo reproduces them. For his part, Oyelowo doesn’t mimic King so much as channel him: His voice, devoid of King’s familiar church-bell timbre, is his own, and

he’s used it to create a bona fide character rather than a superficial impersonation. Exquisitely shot by cinematographer Bradford Young, “Selma” plunges the audience into 1960s Alabama, where we see Annie Lee Cooper (Oprah Winfrey, who also helped produce) try once again to register to vote. Later, Cooper would figure prominently in King’s strategy of drawing attention to the fight he led against injustice and racism; among the many things “Selma” does brilliantly is giving the lie to nonviolence as a merely passive, benign form of protest. Instead, we see King using it not just as a moral force but as a battle of images, in which searing footage and photographs of protesters being brutalized by local terrorists and law enforcement officials would, with luck, electrify the nation in support of his cause. Like any historical drama, “Selma” contains its share of compressions and the stiff, declarative rhythms of “important” billboard scenes. But for the most part, DuVernay makes sweeping, smooth work of a challenging collection of events. “Selma” carries viewers along on a tide of breathtaking events so assuredly that they never drown in the details or the despair, but instead are left buoyed: The civil rights movement and its heroes aren’t artifacts from the distant past, but messengers sent on an urgent mission for today. There are several reasons to see “Selma” – for its virtuosity and scale, scope and sheer beauty. But then there are its lessons, which have to do with history, but also today: “Selma” invites viewers to heed its story, meditate on its implications and allow those images once again to change our hearts and minds.

incredible fortitude hails. The most interesting part of Zamperini’s story is what happens after the war and how he reassimilated to society. He suffered severe post traumatic stress and was eventually able to return to Japan to make peace with his captors. That enormous ability to forgive would have been a hell of a movie, huh? By the time Zamperini (who died in July at age 97) lands at his second Japanese labor camp, Jolie is just spinning her wheels.

RATED: R for sexual content, nudity, drug use and language TIME: 1 hour, 55 minutes VERDICT: Cheryl Strayed, as played by Reese Witherspoon in Jean-Marc Vallee’s “Wild,” is, bless the Lord, not an easily discernable type. She’s also not the sort we’ve often encountered on the well-trod paths of female stereotypes in movies. Strayed is a bundle of messy imperfections, as we gradually learn from flashbacks that accumulate throughout her therapeutic journey on the Pacific Crest Trail in “Wild.” She’s a serial adulterer, but no villain. She’s curious, experimental and intrepid to the point of selfdestruction. The same traits, though, also may be her salvation. Strayed sets

out to hike 1,100 miles through the Rockies, from the Mojave Desert to Oregon. She’s forcing self-renewal not by fleeing her life but by confronting herself in isolation. Her background isn’t neatly laid out before her hike begins in California. But the film – adapted by Nick Hornby from Strayed’s 2012 best-selling memoir – fills her journey with montages of memories. The scenes range from drugged-out heroin highs to tender moments with her mom, whose advice to “put yourself in the way of beauty” spurs Strayed’s trip. Witherspoon possesses an alwaysin-control fortitude that perhaps makes her a less than ideal fit with the looser Strayed. The hardest thing to get past in “Wild”is that a much-documented solitude can’t help but seem artificially conceived. (Strayed isn’t seen writing in the film but she does briefly express her literary hopes of being published.) “Wild” is ultimately unique for its twist, even if it comes by an unfortunately intrusive narration. Strayed’s rocky past doesn’t need apology if it gets her where she’s going. – The

“UNBROKEN” STARRING: Jack O’Connell, Takamasa Ishihara, Domhnall Gleeson

PLOT: After a near-fatal plane crash in WWII, Olympian Louis Zamperini spends a harrowing 47 days in a raft with two fellow crewmen before he’s caught by the Japanese Navy and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp. RATED: PG-13 for war violence including intense sequences of brutality and for brief language TIME: 2 hours, 17 minutes VERDICT: Louis Zamperini, a war hero, Olympian and subject of a celebrated book – deserves a better movie than one Angelina Jolie gives him. She has talked and talked and talked – nonstop – about how inspirational, uplifting, courageous (insert your own gushy adjective here) Zamperini’s story is. Yet the Oscar-winning actress completely misses the point with a bland, tedious film. Key moments in Zamperini’s early life are told via flashback, but Jolie basically divides her movie into two settings – Zamperini surviving 47 days adrift on a raft in shark-infested waters and then enduring two years as a Japanese prisoner of war. She doesn’t bother exploring from where Louis’s

KIDMAN ON FALLON DATE: ‘IT WAS AWKWARD’

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Saturday, January 10, 2015 • Section C • Page 10

LOS ANGELES – Nicole Kidman says she wasn’t exactly trying to “seduce” Jimmy Fallon when the two went on a date years ago. The actress reminisced with “The Tonight Show” host about their encounter at Fallon’s New York apartment in an “awkward” interview this week. “Um, was I trying to seduce him? I don’t know if seduction is part of my repertoire. I think I was more just kind of open to the idea, which never eventuated, so ...” Kidman said Thursday while promoting her new movie “Paddington,” which opens Friday. The two were set up by a mutual friend when both were single. Both are now married with children.

Actor Rod Taylor and wife Mary Hilem arrive in March 1966 at a birthday party in Beverly Hills, Calif., in honor of Lynda Bird Johnson. Taylor died Wednesday.

Actor Rod Taylor dies at 84 LOS ANGELES – Rod Taylor, the suave Australian actor whose brawny good looks made him a leading man for films ranging from Westerns to romantic comedies, has died. He was 84. Taylor died in Los Angeles on Wednesday, his daughter, Felicia Taylor, told the Los Angeles Times. The Associated Press was not immediately able to contact her. Taylor’s breakthrough came in 1960 with “The Time Machine,” George Pal’s special effects marvel in which Taylor’s dogged British inventor transports himself into a future where he witnesses world wars, nuclear annihilation and, finally, the rise of a new society. From there, his career went on to blossom in Westerns (“The Train Robbers” with John Wayne), thrillers (Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds”), dramas (John Ford’s “Young Cassidy”) and romantic comedies (“Sunday in New York” with Jane Fonda and “Do Not Disturb” and “The Glass Bottom Boat” with Doris Day). A curiosity was the 1970 “Zabriskie Point,” Italian Michelangelo Antonioni’s venture into American filming. A murky attack on American mendacity that was filmed largely in Death Valley, it was a failure. As his film career began to wind down, Taylor turned to television, where such series as “Hong Kong,” “Bobcats,” “The Oregon Trail,” “Masquerade” and “Outlaws” won him a new audience, although most of his shows lasted no more than a season.

NEW YORK – Broadway is looking for pint-sized rock stars to join perhaps the coolest school band ever: the one onstage at “School of Rock – The Musical.” Open auditions for singers ages 9-15 will take place in New York on Jan. 24 at Broadway’s Winter Garden Theatre, Los Angeles on Jan. 17 at Screenland Studios and Chicago on Jan. 24 at the Actor’s Equity Association branch. Hopefuls are asked to bring a photo, resume and be ready to sing a rock song. Those who also play guitar, bass or cello are encouraged to bring their instruments. Performers who play piano are asked to be ready to play. Those who play should bring their sticks. The stage version of “The School of Rock” will stay close to the plot of the Jack Black-led 2003 film, in which a wannabe rocker enlists his fifth-graders to form a rock group and conquer the Battle of the Bands.

History to debut ‘Texas Rising’ miniseries in theaters PASADENA, Calif. – The History network said Friday that it plans to premiere its miniseries “Texas Rising” in theaters before it begins on television over the Memorial Day weekend. Details are still being worked out, but the idea is to show the first episode of the series in about 900 theaters the week before the television premiere, said the network’s general manager, Dirg Hookstra. Theatergoers also will be able to see red carpet activity from the official premiere site, expected in San Antonio. The historical fiction miniseries, set to run for eight hours and possibly more, is History’s attempt to echo “Hatfields & McCoys,” the miniseries that was an unexpected huge hit for the network in May 2012. Leslie Greif, executive producer of “Hatfields & McCoys,” is also behind “Texas Rising.”

LOS ANGELES – Oscar nominees in all 24 categories will hear their names announced live next week. Academy Awards producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron said Friday they are launching a new tradition of revealing all Oscar contenders in a live news conference. In past years, only the most popular categories were presented live, with the remainder announced in a news release. Actor Chris Pine, directors JJ Abrams and Alfonso Cuaron, and film academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs will unveil the nominees early Thursday at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ headquarters in Beverly Hills, California. The announcement will stream live on Oscars.org. The Academy Awards will be presented at the Dolby Theatre on Feb. 22.

Study: White men get most of entry-level TV directing jobs LOS ANGELES – According to a Directors Guild of America study, the vast majority of first-time directors for TV series are white men. Of the nearly 500 directors hired for their initial job from 2009 to 2014, men represented 82 percent and women 18 percent, a guild study found. The ethnic breakdown of the first-time directors was 87 percent white and 13 percent minority, according to the study released Friday. Paris Barclay, president of the Directors Guild, said that employing first-time directors represents a major opportunity to make a difference diversifying the ranks of directors. Instead, Barclay said, the industry is retaining the status quo that favors white males as TV directors.

Handler (“Sex and the City,” “Californication”) is 54. Singer Brad Roberts of Crash Test Dummies is 51. Actress Trini Alvarado is 48. Singer Brent Smith of Shinedown is 37. Rapper Chris Smith of Kris Kross is 36.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - Changes in your life will reduce your stress and improve your stature. Personal relationships will turn out to be very fulfilling if you are willing to nurture and compromise. Your career will take an unanticipated but upward turn if you take on bigger challenges and more responsibility. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Your ability to manipulate situations will broaden your range of options and bring beneficial results. Make a commitment that is geared toward improving your financial status to gain peace of mind. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Get busy and start something new. You have plenty to contribute, and if you look for people who share your dedication and resourcefulness, a promising opportunity will unfold. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Your unpredictable mood will make it difficult for you to decide something. If you are observant and open-minded, you will be able to come up with a workable plan. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Hard work coupled with your ability to be a team player will bring cash your way. The ability to clearly express your ideas and plans will be valuable. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Increase the scope of your job search both online and off. A higher-paying position will be worth added responsibilities and time. Don’t be afraid to learn as you go.

Love and romance are looking good. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Your kindness and compassion will make a difference to someone in need. Assisting people in crisis will end up being a stepping-stone to a new career. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You won’t be able to please everyone. Put your needs first, and forget about getting others’ approval. You will accomplish more if you stop worrying about what others think. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Tensions at home will mount if you laze around or become bored. Get out and enjoy a change of scenery. An old friend will be worth reconnecting with. Enjoy catching up. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Communications and travel are highlighted. Be honest with your partner about your feelings and motivations. A short trip will provide inspiration for a new hobby or project. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Get your plan up and running, even if you still have changes to make and problems to solve. You will learn via the mistakes you make and the challenges you face. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- An unexpected dilemma will cause concern. You will have to deal with this matter immediately to avoid setbacks. Put your regular schedule on hold for the time being.
