PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS WEIGH CURRICULUM REVISIONS

Mixing in Common Core

Will fix, update its high schools By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Science lab renovations, asbestos abatement and new special education accommodations are being lined up for this summer. The School District 155 Board, in a 6-0 vote Tuesday evening, approved issuing up to $10 million in general obligation bonds to fund two years worth of projects at all four of its high school buildings. This is the second half of bonds approved following the required public hearing process last year, said the Crystal Lake-based district’s interim chief financial officer, Martin McConahay. The bonds did not need to go to a referendum because the dollars they generated must be spent on health, life and safety projects. The approximately $10 million in bonds issued last year were part of a refinancing move that reduced the amount that property owners collectively need to cover the district’s principal and interest by about two-thirds. Debt service cost taxpayers $3.675 million in 2012-13, McConahay said. That number fell $750,000 last year, will remain level this year and is expected to go down another $1.5 million when the district passes its property tax levy in 2016. That line item on tax bills will stay at that reduced level for several years, according to board documents. The second half of the bonds will be sold by the end of this month, McConahay said. The exact amount and interest rate the district will get will be determined at that time, he said, adding that the average interest

If private schools don’t accept federal money, they don’t need to follow Common Core. The new curriculum standards are affecting textbooks and the standardized tests required to get into college. Immanuel Lutheran adopted math textbooks tied to the Common Core.

Local private schools selectively adopting new standards By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Using new math textbooks aligned to Common Core standards, Ed Bower sometimes finds himself dropping the text and teaching students in his pre-algebra class at Immanuel Lutheran School the basics about integers. Bower, the school principal, who is teaching one pre-algebra class this year, said he detours from the textbook because the new education standards within it assume students have already mastered the initial lessons of adding, subtracting, multiplying and

dividing whole numbers. “We have the freedom as a nonpublic school to devise our own curriculum,” Bower said. “We incorporate parts of the Common Core, but yet we also hold to some of the more traditional steps in

teaching.” Like many parochial schools across the nation, Immanuel Lutheran in Crystal Lake is selectively revising its math and English curricula to fit the Common Core, a controversial set of standards

adopted by Illinois, 42 other states and the District of Columbia. In public schools, the debate over the standards focuses on local control and a perceived federal takeover of curricula. In private schools, many are adopting certain Common Core standards out of necessity. Publishers are increasingly producing textbooks aligned to the Common Core, limiting options for parochial schools. Many privately educated students also go on to public high school, where they will be taught the rigorous standards.

County Board extends contract with lobbyists for 1 more year By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Board again extended its contract with its Washington, D.C., lobbying firm over the objections of a minority questioning the benefit. Board members voted Tuesday evening, 17-6, in favor of a one-year extension of its 2014 contract with

Ferguson Group, not to exceed $82,000. The county has employed Ferguson since 2005 to help augment the county’s working relationships with its representatives in Congress. The brief debate that played out mirrored past discussions when Ferguson’s contract came up for renewal – the faction most dedicated to limiting government size and spending questions either the cost

Last days in office show Quinn’s not a class act SPRINGFIELD – A familiar voice came booming across my phone line the other day. “Scott, it’s George Ryan.” I hadn’t talked to the former governor since he was released from prison. Now that he has paid his debt to society, he wanted to weigh in on a matter of political protocol: whether Pat Quinn should have shown up for Bruce Rauner’s inauguration. With the exception of the day Rod Blagojevich was impeached, the outgoing governor – for at least the last 50 years – always has been there to hand over the reins to his successor. It’s a gracious thing to do. In a democracy, power is handed over peacefully.

LOTTERY

VIEWS Scott Reeder In Washington, on inauguration day, the outgoing and incoming presidents and their spouses have tea together before the swearing-in. It brings a certain civility to the process. Ryan said when his successor, Blagojevich, was sworn in, he sat through it. “It was hard. He took hits at me. But I sat there and took it,” he said. Good for George Ryan. Former Gov. Dan Walker beat Former Gov. Richard Ogilvie. But

Ogilvie sat through the inauguration and listened to Walker say, “The free ride is over.” Ogilvie, a tough former World War II tank commander, sat there and took it. But on Jan. 12, Pat Quinn was nowhere to be seen. He stayed home in Chicago and pouted. OK, maybe he didn’t pout. But his conduct since Election Day has been pretty bad. First, he refused to concede the night of the election when it was readily apparent he had lost. Then he declined to make the traditional congratulatory call to the winner. And, finally, he blew off the inauguration.

NWHerald.com

That’s not being a class act – at all. And, yes, I’m aware we had a brutal gubernatorial race. All elections for governor are brutal. Mud is slung. Egos are bruised. Candidates cry foul. “Elections kind of bring out the worst of us, and afterward we get back together,” former Gov. Jim Edgar told Illinois News Network. “Inaugurations have a tendency to bring people together.” Edgar is right. Unless one of those people doesn’t bother to show up.

LOCAL BRIEFS CARY – A Yorkville man has been charged by the FBI in connection with several robberies, including one at Fifth Third Bank in Cary, police said. Eric L. Shepherd, 30, was arrested Tuesday without incident, according to a news release from the Cary Police Department. Shepherd is accused of robbing the Cary Fifth Third Bank at 750 W. Northwest Highway of an undisclosed amount of money Dec. 8, Cary Deputy Police Chief James Fillmore said. The FBI also is coordinating charges against Shepherd for a robbery Nov. 21 at a BMO Harris in Carol Stream; a Dec. 23 attempted robbery at a Chase Bank in Valparaiso, Indiana; a Dec. 26 robbery at a Chase Bank in Grayslake; and the most recent, a robbery Jan. 7 at a BMO Harris in Crown Point, Indiana, the release said. Cary police responded to a hold-up alarm about 6 p.m. Dec. 8 at Fifth Third Bank. The man who allegedly robbed the bank approached a bank teller and presented a note demanding money, Fillmore said. Employees gave him the undisclosed amount before the man left the bank and fled on foot. No weapon was implied in the demand and no one was injured, he added. Fillmore said the investigation was coordinated through the FBI.

According to the news release, Patty Cordoba, 42, of Crystal Lake and owner of Patty’s Tax Service, was indicted for her role in a scheme in preparing and filing more than 200 personal federal income tax returns from 2006 through 2011. Cordoba was indicted along with her husband, Mario Cordoba, 47, Luisa Carbajal, 52, of

Marengo, and Alicia Arvalo, 48 of Poplar Grove, who are employees of Patty’s Tax Service. Olga Lidia Diaz-Hernandez, 45, of McHenry, Victor Hernandez, 41, of McHenry, Veronica Sanchez-Barradas, 39, of McHenry, and Cesar Besiche, 48, of McHenry, who are clients of the tax service, also were indicted.

The defendants also were charged with conspiring with each other between March 2009 and May 2012 to defraud the United States by making false claims for tax refunds and obtaining payments, the news release said. Each defendant also faces at least one count of mail fraud. The indictment also seeks forfeiture of $642,514 from Pat-

Algonquin-Lake in the Hills firefighters extinguish a truck fire Wednesday outside of Transmission Express at 9354 Virginia Road in Lake in the Hills. The Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District was called at 2:35 p.m. for a pickup truck that had a fire underneath its hood outside of the building. Extra crews were initially called to the scene because of possible exposure to the building, but crews were able to extinguish the fire before it spread, Battalion Chief John Knebl said. No one was injured. The owner of the truck had dropped it off about five minutes before the fire started to have a leak repaired, Knebl said. The truck is a total loss, Knebl said.

first in the past two decades, said Kevin Werner, the district’s assistant superintendent of business and operations. The fees will increase $10 to $70 for preschool, $8 to $56 for kindergarten, $12 to $84 for first through fifth grade and $15 to $105 for sixth through eighth grade, district spokeswoman Denise Barr said. They increased by the same amounts the year before, she said. “District 47 continues to have one of the lowest student fee structures in McHenry County,” Werner wrote in an

email. “Slight increases for next year will help support strategic projects aimed at increasing student achievement.” The increases aren’t targeted for specific programs but will instead be spread across the board to various projects, Barr said. Last year, the district also pointed to five-year projections that showed the district would likely run deficits as well as continuing uncertainty at the state level, in particular pension reform and a decline in general state aid and transportation reimbursements.

HUNTLEY

Senior development Ex-trustee withdraws from Village Board race gets OK from board By JOSEPH BUSTOS bustos@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – A $38 million senior development will be able to move forward. Village Board members gave their OK on Tuesday to the Clarendale of Algonquin development at 2001 W. Algonquin Road. The site, which was previously the Stonegate Nursery, will have a mixture of independent living, assisted living and memory care units. Ryan Companies, who along with Life Care Services will co-own the building, plans to begin construction in April. The facility is planned for an August 2016 opening. The property is expected to employ 90 to 105 people. Rent at the facility is planned to be market rate, Ryan Companies

executives have said. Clarendale of Algonquin is planned to have 76 independent living units, 56 assisted care units and 54 memory care units. Village Board members also approved the purchase of two vacant properties in the downtown area. The village spent $50,000 to buy a former dry cleaning business at 115 W. Algonquin Road, and $100,000 to buy the former Kings Auto location at 5 S. Main St. Assistant Village Manager Michael Kumbera said the village has no immediate plans for the property, “but steps to improve the appearance of the area will be considered during the budget process.” Kumbera added that money for the purchase is coming from the general fund, but eventually will be reimbursed

once money become available in the village’s tax increment finance district funds. The village created a downtown TIF district last year in order to help spur redevelopment in the area. In other action, a planned face-lift at the Burger King at 224 N. Randall Road also received a go-ahead from the Village Board. The project is set to include both exterior and interior renovations, but the restaurant plans to stay open during construction, according to village documents. The planned improvements of the 4,100-square-foot interior include remodeled bathrooms and a renovation of the dining area and play area. The fastfood chain also plans to add a second ordering station for the drive-thru at the restaurant.

Four candidates left for three spots By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com

HUNTLEY – A crowded field for Huntley Village Board became less competitive this week after a former trustee withdrew from the race. Pam Fender plans to relocate to Sterling this spring with her boyfriend, after a landlord informed them Dec. 31 that he plans on selling their rental property once their lease expires in April. The news came after Fender filed election petitions to reclaim a trustee spot on the board. She decided against a re-election bid two years ago to run unsuccessfully for Grafton Township supervisor.

“It’s an economical decision and a tough decision because I have a support system with my friends here in Huntley,” said Fender, who has lived in the village since 1999. In an ironic twist, the couple couldn’t find an affordable house in the area to accommodate a retirement lifestyle, Fender said. If elected, the former trustee wanted to work with village staff on low-income housing options for the numerous retirees within Sun City Huntley. After searching various locations, the couple found an affordable house in Sterling. They have agreed to a contract and plan to close on the deal in March, Fender said. She informed the village Tuesday about her decision to withdraw from the Village Board race.

Village Clerk Rita McMahon said she informed election officials in both McHenry and Kane counties about the news. Fender has until Jan. 29 to file a withdrawal that removes her name from the April ballot. Fender served as a trustee for eight years before deciding to run for Grafton supervisor in 2013. Her exit from this year’s race means four Village Board candidates will vie for three trustee spots. The candidates include incumbents Harry Leopold and Niko Kanakaris and newcomers Tim Hoeft and Darci Chandler. Fender said she will not endorse any of the remaining candidates before she moves to Sterling. “That’s a decision for the people who still live here to decide,” she said.

Pioneer Center to expand services

• BENEFIT

By JEFF ENGELHARDT

Continued from page A3 been indicted on four counts of aggravated driving under the influence, had three previous DUI offenses under his belt at the time of the November crash, Thomas said. Smith is awaiting trial, and his next court appearance is Feb. 10. Left in critical condition after the crash, Wolff was placed into a medically induced coma. The coma lasted 18 days, according to information on the event flier. The recent graduate played football, wrestled and was part of an anti-bullying group at Johnsburg High School. A friend and former coach of Wolff’s, Bill Molidor of Johnsburg, is one of the people behind the fundraiser. Molidor said he visits Wolff a few times a week and wants to help make the recovery process a little easier. “He’s doing OK,” Molidor said. “He’s home now, and he’s attending rehab for the better part of every day.” Molidor helped organize the benefit in hopes of raising about $20,000 to give to Wolff for medical costs or for future plans, whatever those might be, Molidor said. He added it was Wolff’s aspiration to enter the Marines at some point. Molidor said support has already been flooding in, with bands donating their time to entertain benefitgoers and local businesses offering monetary donations and items for auctions. “We’re just doing this to raise awareness about what happened,” he said. “And trying to help out a family that could use our help, because that’s what we do here in this little town.”

Service has daytime, early evening hours • BUS Continued from page A3 project, said Pace spokesman Patrick Wilmot. “[McDOT] has been aggressively working to solicit new partners and that’s what has directly led to the expansion of our service,” Wilmot said. “This project all along has been about improving mobility to McHenry County residents.” The Dial-a-Ride service is available during daytime and early evening hours, Mondays through Saturdays. Fares vary from $2 for the general public to $1 for seniors and people with disabilities. Riders would be charged 25 cents for each additional mile traveled after the first five miles, according to the MCRide website.

More than $600K in refunds claimed • SCHEME Continued from page A3 fake tax returns claimed more than $600,000 in tax refunds. Defendants also created fraudulent individual taxpayer identification number applications for taxpayers and dependents to accompany tax returns. As part of the scheme, Patty’s Tax Service represented clients who fraudulently claimed child tax credits to increase the amounts of re-

funds, the news release said. Patty and Mario Cordoba, Carbajal and Arvalo allegedly prepared returns for themselves and Diaz-Hernandez, Hernandez, Sanchez-Barradas, Besiche and other filers using false information to make it appear they were entitled to substantial tax refunds, according to the news release. The tax service allegedly prepared letters to the IRS on behalf of Diaz-Hernandez, Hernandez, Sanchez-Barradas, Besiche and others, when the IRS requested addi-

tional information regarding income claimed on the returns, the news release said. Each person faces up to 20 years in prison and a fine up to $250,000 or twice the loss or gain from the alleged mail fraud. Conspiracy to defraud the United States carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a fine of $250,000. All eight of the defendants, who pleaded not guilty on Wednesday, remain in federal custody pending detention hearings, the news release said.

Rockford Diocese backs identity initiative • COMMON CORE Continued from page A1 The selective approach – adopting standards that work best for students – allows Immanuel Lutheran to maintain control over the school’s curriculum and provides students opportunities to succeed beyond their private schooling, Bower said. “We want to meet the needs of the kids that we have,” said Bower, who oversees a school that enrolls about 220 students. The Catholic Diocese of Rockford rolled out a revised math curriculum this year with selected Common Core standards, said Superintendent of Schools Mike Kagan. A team of educators is also

working to revise the English curriculum and include some Common Core standards for next year. Throughout the revisions, the Rockford Diocese has focused on the standards that benefit Catholic students in its 40 elementary schools and six central high schools, including Marian Central in Woodstock. “Some of the critical-thinking skills that are taught through the Common Core are good,” Kagan said. “We are not going to shy away from standards that we feel are good for students.” The Rockford Diocese, along with five others in Illinois, also backed the Common Core Catholic Identity Initiative. Formed by the National Catholic Educational Associ-

ation, the initiative is meant to support Catholic school administrators who have adopted the rigorous standards but maintained a Catholic identity on the curriculum. With the incremental move to the Common Core, the Rockford Diocese has also found that it already was using certain standards, Kagan said. But that hasn’t stopped the calls from parents concerned that the Rockford Diocese is overhauling its curriculum to fit the Common Core. “We are not junking everything we’ve done well for the past decades and 100 percent adopting these standards,” Kagan said. “But we are studying and looking at them. When we see a benefit for students, we have adopted them.”

Most spending set for C-G, CL Central projects • D-155 Continued from page A1 rate for 20-year bonds is 2 percent. Work on the approved projects will start as soon as school lets out this summer, McConahay said. Projects include asbestos abatement to be done in conjunction with upgrades

and renovations of the science labs at Crystal Lake Central High School, CaryGrove High School and Crystal Lake South High School; partial roof replacements at Crystal Lake South; replacing some doors at Crystal Lake Central; upgrading the fire alarms as well as replacing the public announcement and bell system at CaryGrove; and special education

accommodations at Prairie Ridge High School, according to board documents. The projects are estimated to cost $210,000 at Prairie Ridge, $1.3 million at Crystal Lake South, $1.1 million at Crystal Lake Central and $1.3 million at Cary-Grove, the documents said. The board is still reviewing the projects it has lined up for the second year.

Firm brings focus to local issues, proponents say • LOBBYING Continued from page A1 as usual?’ ” board member Andrew Gasser, R-Fox River Grove, said. But supporters of retaining Ferguson said that the group has steered a lot of money and resources to McHenry County, which member Ken Koehler, R-Crystal Lake, calls a “donor county” that sends off far more tax money to Springfield and Washington than it gets back. Opponent Diane Evertsen, R-Harvard, said that the county already has lobbyists in the form of its elected officials voters send to Washington. Carolyn Schofield, R-Crystal Lake, responded that those officials don’t have enough time to fully dedicate to McHenry County. “[Ferguson is] there, and they have that personal connection, that direct connection, and they’re bringing things back to us, and back to Washington, that I don’t think we can get from relationships with our legislators. They don’t have the time – they’re serving so many others,” Schofield said. Nick Provenzano, chairman of the board’s Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs Committee that directly works with Ferguson, said lobbyists do more than try to bring back more taxpayer money in the form of federal spending and resources. They also serve as an important line of defense in pressuring lawmakers against imposing unfunded

mandates and other adverse regulations, said Provenzano, who is senior district representative for Republican U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, whose district covers almost all of McHenry County. “The EPA regulations alone are going to be suffocating to businesses,” Provenzano, R-McHenry, said. The county has had an $82,000 maximum rate with Ferguson since 2011, but the county in recent years has not reached that cap. The County Board paid the firm $70,925 last fiscal year, and $71,396 in 2013, according to county records. Board members in a separate 19-4 vote approved the County Board’s state and federal legislative agenda for 2015, which includes items such as supporting a full interchange at Route 23 and Interstate 90, increasing capacity on Route 47 from Huntley through Woodstock, and the ability to ban the use of coaltar sealants and enact stronger noise ordinances. While Ferguson represents the county government’s federal interests, the County Board lobbies state lawmakers in Springfield through its memberships in groups such as the McHenry County Council of Governments and Metro Counties of Illinois.

SKETCH VIEW

No respect? Eliminate the office If comedian Rodney Dangerfield were still alive, he would sympathize with the office of Illinois lieutenant governor. Like Dangerfield, the office “don’t get no respect.” It started with the drafters of the 1970 Illinois Constitution. That document, under which we live today, set forth six constitutional offices: governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, treasurer and comptroller. The six offices must have been important in the delegates’ eyes, or they would not have created them. Keeping the offices filled, in the event of midterm vacancies, should also have been important, and it is – for five out of the six offices, at least. If the attorney general, secretary of state, treasurer or comptroller posts become vacant, the constitution mandates that the governor appoint replacements. If the governor post becomes vacant, the constitution directs that the lieutenant governor take charge. But, if the lieutenant governor office becomes vacant, the constitution sets forth no provisions to name a replacement. The office stays vacant until the end of the term. That’s strange, indeed, given that a vacancy crops up every once in a while. Over the past 50 years, Illinois has had 10 lieutenant governors, and three of them vacated the office during their terms. Two – Samuel Shapiro in 1968 and Pat Quinn in 2009 – ascended to the governorship. One – Dave O’Neal in 1981 – resigned. The vacancy lasted nearly eight months after Shapiro departed, more than 19 months after O’Neal quit, and nearly two years after Quinn left to take over for the ousted Rod Blagojevich. The new law approved in the waning days of Quinn’s administration addresses the unusual situation of the full-term vacancy in the comptroller’s office because of the death of Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka last month, after she won a second term but before she could be sworn in. The law now provides for a special election for four constitutional offices if the vacancy would be at least 28 months before the next statewide election. Offices affected are attorney general, secretary of state, treasurer and comptroller. Again, though, possible lieutenant governor vacancies are not addressed. If the office is to remain a constitutional afterthought, it’s time to do away with it. We have supported eliminating the position in the past and continue to believe it’s worthy of consideration to help rid Illinois government of excess.

IT’S YOUR WRITE Replace losers faster To the Editor: Why do we need more than two months after an election to replace a defeated governor or other public official? Two centuries ago with slow travel and poor communications that probably made sense. Why now? In the private sector, an employee usually gives two weeks notice before leaving. If the employer is firing someone, that person may be given all of 15 minutes to pick up tools or clean out a desk and then hit the door. Does a new governor or even a president need weeks on end to get ready to take office? Based on the length of campaigns, the new person probably already has spent about two years thinking and yakking about what’s going to happen after he or she is elected. Let the people’s new choice take office and get on with it before the defeated incumbent can muck up the works. The wheels of government turn

slowly anyhow with or without transition teams, etc. In fact, Congress sometimes shuts down the federal government over funding debates. Somehow life goes on. The creaking wheels of Illinois government would have rolled on well enough without Pat Quinn for the 11 weeks after his November defeat. Instead he made appointments, gave pardons and fattened favorite pockets before finally beginning to collect his $136,000 annual pension on Jan. 19. Thomas Stall McHenry

Five myths about Mitt Romney as he considers another run Mitt Romney might not strike most people as a particularly enigmatic figure, but a lot of mythology has nonetheless grown up around his political career. We can expect to see its resurgence now that he is reportedly running for president again. But we’ll understand the coming race much better if we slice through the fables. 1. The Republican establishment foisted Romney onto the rest of the party. There is such a thing as the Republican establishment. Big donors, party strategists and elected officials disagree among themselves all the time, but they tend to have shared habits of thought that are reinforced by constant conversation – and these tend to be a little different from those of party activists or primary voters. And it’s true the GOP establishment, in this sense, had settled on Romney before the 2012 Iowa caucuses. But Romney wasn’t the first choice for many in the establishment. True, a few bigwigs were committed deeply to him from the start. But they hardly represented consensus opinion. That’s why we heard so many entreaties for other candidates to run. Henry Kissinger, Nancy Reagan and Rupert Murdoch were among those who urged Chris Christie to enter the race. Others pined for Mitch Daniels, Paul Ryan or Jeb Bush. During his first presidential campaign in 2007 and 2008, Romney positioned himself as the movementconservative candidate rather than an establishment figure. The party establishment got behind him in

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Ramesh Ponnuru 2012 only after other candidates refused to run, making him the most plausible nominee and president in the remaining field. His heavy support from donors and elected officials meant he was likely to win the race, but it did not force primary voters to back him. Romney still has some strong supporters, but he might find many of the donors and elected officials who helped him last time are with other candidates now – because they never were committed deeply to him personally. “Romney falls flat with GOP lawmakers” was a recent headline in the Hill, which reported several of his early backers in the 2012 race are keeping their options open. 2. Romney lost over immigration. As Politico recently put it, during his last run, Romney “suggested pursuing policies that lead undocumented immigrants to ‘self-deport’ – a remark that cost him badly among Hispanic voters in the general election.” His position on immigration almost certainly did hurt him among Hispanics. The extent of the damage, though, is easily exaggerated. Exit polls found Latinos gave Romney 27 percent of their votes, while whites gave him 59 percent of theirs: a 32-point gap. When Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, who had sponsored legislation to create a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants,

ran in 2008, he had a 24-point gap, earning 31 percent of the Hispanic vote. So Romney clearly did worse. But let’s say Romney had a 24-point gap, too. In that scenario, resulting in roughly one million additional votes for him, only one state would have flipped in his favor: Florida. Without more states and their electoral votes going for Romney, Obama still would have won re-election. Even if Romney had fought Obama to a draw among Hispanics – which would have been unprecedented for a Republican – he still would have lost Ohio, Virginia and the election. 3. Romney lost because he ran too far to the right. Supposedly, under pressure from his rivals in the primaries, Romney took positions that made voters think of him as, well, “severely conservative,” to quote one of his own famously clumsy phrases. Jeb Bush recently suggested he would try to avoid this dynamic if he ran for president. Romney did move right for the primaries – the 2008 primaries, when he was running as the movement-conservative candidate. But he did not do much further flip-flopping, and in 2012 his rivals did not manage to pull him rightward. They did not, for example, attack him for being soft on illegal immigration and thus force him to harden his position. Instead, he was the one criticizing Rick Perry and Newt Gingrich for not being as tough as he was. And yet Romney did not end up defined as an extremist. Political scientists John Sides and Lynn

Vavreck note that in November 2012, voters considered Romney closer to themselves ideologically than President Barack Obama was. And a Gallup poll in October 2012 supported this notion. The survey found 37 percent of voters said Obama was “a lot more liberal” than themselves, whereas only 23 percent said Romney was “a lot more conservative.” 4. Romney lost because evangelicals and conservatives deserted him. This idea is a favorite of conservatives trying to argue a candidate more conservative than Romney would have won the election. (It’s the opposite of Myth 3.) This past week, for example, Rush Limbaugh said in 2012, as in previous years, the Republican nominee had taken the party’s conservative base for granted and thus caused it to “sit home” instead of voting. Exit polls don’t back up the theory. Romney did better than McCain among conservative voters. He won roughly the same share of conservatives as George W. Bush did in 2004, the last time Republicans won the presidency – Bush won 84 percent and Romney won 82 percent. Nor was conservative turnout depressed. Conservatives made up 35 percent of the 2012 electorate, compared with 34 percent in 2004. It was the same story among white evangelical Protestants. Romney got the same share of their vote (79 percent) as Bush had, and they were a higher share of the electorate in 2012 than in 2004 (23 vs. 21 percent). 5. Romney was a weak candidate.

Romney certainly had deep flaws. Suggesting that 47 percent of voters were moochers was a big unforced error. He never said how he would replace Obamacare, and the fact he had advanced a similar health care plan while governor of Massachusetts inhibited him from making the case against it. Aspects of his business career lent themselves to demonization by the Obama forces, and his wealth put distance between him and most voters. Still, Romney ran ahead of almost all of his party’s Senate candidates – and sometimes well ahead. In Nebraska, Ohio and Arizona, he outperformed the Republican Senate hopefuls by more than two points. In six other states, he outperformed them by more than six points. So whatever Romney’s flaws were, he still was able to do better than other members of his party. Some of the explanations for Romney’s loss are overblown. He does not appear to have lost because he was an especially unappealing candidate, or a too conservative or too moderate one, or one with a position on immigration offensive to Hispanics. It appears, instead, what held him back was the electorate’s view of the Republican Party as a whole, especially its approach to economic issues. If he runs again, Romney should take note of that point, and so should his primary rivals. • Ponnuru is a senior editor at National Review, a columnist for Bloomberg View and a visiting fellow at the American Enterprise Institute.

By KERRY LESTER The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – The Democrat sponsoring a contentious plan to overhaul the state’s nearly 20-year-old school funding formula said he’s altering the bill to help remove partisan and regional opposition for ease of passage. State Sen. Andy Manar of Bunker Hill proposed a measure last year to make school funding more equitable by directing more state money to poorer districts at the expense of wealthier ones. It passed the Senate but stalled in the House. So, this session, he’s making one major change that aims to even out inequities: a new provision accounting for regional cost differences, such as higher teacher salaries in districts where the cost of living is higher. High-poverty districts in the Chicago area still would get a boost in their funding allotment, but poor districts in central and southern Illinois would now see smaller gains under the changes. Specific funding details have not yet been calculated by the State Board of Education, which has done previous analyses. Manar, who shared a draft of the legislation with The Associated Press, said he plans to file the changes in the coming days. Last session’s failed legislation, which Republicans said unfairly created a system of “winners and losers,” was frequently used in campaign mailers against Democrats in

State Sen. Andy Manar, D-Bunker Hill, speaks to lawmakers May 22, 2014, at the state Capitol in Springfield. Manar says he’s altering controversial school funding legislation to increase its chances of passage. suburban swing districts. “The changes are based on constructive criticism that’s coming mostly from suburban superintendents,” Manar said. School funding could emerge as a key focus in the months ahead as new Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner sets out to work with a Democratic-led Legislature. An anticipated multibillion-dollar budget hole gives the divided government more incentive to revamp school funding to protect already struggling school districts that can’t make up the difference with property taxes. Rauner, who invested millions of his own money in education reform before running

for office, indicated during his gubernatorial campaign debate that he didn’t support Manar’s original bill but said the funding formula should be overhauled. Under the current formula, Illinois schools receive general state aid funds to offset the basic cost of educating students through a formula factoring in poverty levels. But districts also get grants for programs such as special education and transportation, which are based on the number of students in those programs. Since the funding formula was last overhauled in 1997, increases in spending on specialized programs have outpaced increases to general state aid

– which funding reform proponents say results in the poorest districts hurting the most. For instance, schools in the small central Illinois community of Pana have roughly one-third of the available funds to spend per student compared to Seneca, which draws more revenue from property taxes. Manar’s revamped proposal would still require schools to demonstrate need before receiving almost any state money by showing how much local revenue they have to spend on students. Wealthier districts that rely largely on property tax revenues to fund their schools would receive less state aid, while property-poor districts would receive more.

Extension sought to contest pension law The ASSOCIATED PRESS SPRINGFIELD – Lawyers contesting the Illinois law that overhauls a state pension program that is $111 billion in debt are asking the state Supreme Court for an extra month to file arguments. Attorneys for state employees, retired teachers and others who contest the constitutionality of the law say they need until March 16, WUIS-FM radio in Springfield reported. The high court agreed in December to fast-track the

state’s appeal of a lower-court ruling in November that the measure is unconstitutional. The plaintiffs are challenging a law adopted in late 2013 that reduces pension benefits and raises the retirement age for workers 45 and younger to reduce a monstrous fiscal hole in the state’s pension accounts. Attorney General Lisa Madigan argued earlier this month that in a crisis, state officials may use extraordinary powers not granted by the Constitution to fix a problem.

Her position was accompanied by 10 friend-of-the-court briefs from the city of Chicago, social service agencies, public policy groups and Chicago employees such as police and Attorney General Lisa schoolteachers. John FitzgerMadigan ald, a lawyer for retired teachers, says there are new arguments that need evaluation. “There are some new ar-

guments and these briefs are somewhat voluminous, and so of course we need a reasonable amount of time to evaluate these briefs,” he said. “Although we believe that the arguments raised ... need to be evaluated and responded to, we do not believe that any of those arguments have any merit.” A Sangamon County judge found in November that the measure violates the Illinois Constitution’s prohibition on impairing or reducing pension perks.

Emanuel seeks parkland for Obama library CHICAGO – Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel introduced an ordinance Wednesday aimed at substantially improving the city’s chances of hosting the Obama presidential library and museum by setting aside space for the project in one of two parks on the city’s South Side. The ordinance would allow the Chicago Park District to transfer about 20 acres of land in either Jackson Park or Washington Park to the city to use for the library. The ordinance, which has the support of nearly the entire City Council, would greatly strengthen the University of Chicago’s bid to place the library in one of the nearby

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew dismissed efforts in Congress to overhaul the nation’s tax laws by lowering the top income tax rate paid by individuals, saying Wednesday that Democrats and Republicans are too far apart to forge such a sweeping package. Instead, Lew said, lawmakers should focus on simplifying taxes paid by businesses, an approach that is gaining traction on Capitol Hill. “I don’t think that there’s any advantage in pretending that there aren’t big disagreements on the individual tax side,” Lew said at a forum hosted by the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank. “We had a national debate just two years ago about the top rate. We’re not looking at the kind of negotiation to go back to lower the top rate.” “While our views on individual tax reform may be far apart,” Lew added, “there is a broad set of business tax reforms on which we should be able to agree.”

Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew talks Wednesday with Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen at the end of the open session of the Financial Stability Oversight Council at the Treasury Department in Washington. Lew’s comments came a day after President Barack Obama proposed raising taxes on the rich and using some of the revenue to finance tax breaks for the middle class. In his State of the Union address, Obama called his approach “middle-class economics.” Congressional Republicans panned the speech, saying there is no way they would use their majorities in the House and Senate to enact tax in-

creases. “All the president really offered [Tuesday night] was more taxes, more government, more of the same approach that has failed the middle class for decades,” said House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. “These just aren’t the wrong policies, they’re the wrong priorities.” On Wednesday, Republicans said they were disappointed the Obama administration isn’t pushing to

simplify taxes for individuals. They noted that the vast majority of small business owners report business income on their individual tax returns. Still, key Republicans said they would welcome more talks about business taxes. “We’re going to keep talking. We’re going to exhaust the possibilities of seeing where the common ground exists and see if we can get something done,” said Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., chairman of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee. “We do have big differences of opinion and our next step is to explore the areas of common ground if and where they exist,” Ryan said. “I’d like comprehensive tax reform and I think it’s important that you make sure that small businesses don’t fall by the wayside. And that is very important to us, and so we’ll see if we can complete the circle.” One point of agreement: Democrats and Republicans alike think the nation’s tax laws are too complicated for businesses and individuals, with too many exemptions, deductions and credits.

CHICAGO – A Cook County judge has approved the first use of cameras inside a county criminal courtroom. The Chicago Tribune reports that Judge Timothy Joyce ruled Tuesday that news media may televise and photograph next month’s sentencing of two men convicted of killing an off-duty Chicago police officer in 2010. Attorneys for the two men had objected. But Joyce said he’s confident he can ensure the “proceedings remain dignified.” He said the public is entitled to see “how these things get resolved.”

Boehner defies Obama on Iran sanctions issue

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Shiite rebels, Yemen’s president reach deal SANAA, Yemen – Shiite rebels holding Yemen’s president captive in his home reached a deal with the U.S.-backed leader Wednesday to end a violent standoff in the capital, the country’s state news agency reported. The agreement promised to give the rebel Houthi movement more say in the affairs of the Arab world’s poorest country in exchange for the group removing its fighters from President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi’s home, the SABA news agency said. However, the late-night deal left unanswered who really controls the country and how much power is still held by Hadi, a key ally in U.S. efforts to battle Yemen’s local al-Qaida branch. In the deal, the Houthis also agreed to release a top aide to Hadi they had kidnapped in recent days. SABA said the agreement included a clause that would answer the rebels’ demands to amend the constitution and expand their representation in the parliament and in state institutions. It also included promises to ensure better representation for Yemen’s southerners as well, the deal said.

Netanyahu invited to address Congress By DEB RIECHMANN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Defying President Barack Obama, House Speaker John Boehner announced on Wednesday that he’s invited Israel’s prime minister to stand before Congress and push for new sanctions against its archenemy Iran. Boehner’s decision to bring Benjamin Netanyahu before a joint meeting of Congress on Feb. 11 seemed to catch the White House by surprise. And it added fuel to a drive by lawmakers from both parties to pass legislation calling for fresh penalties if there is no deal soon to prevent a nuclear-armed Iran. Barely sworn in, the new Republican-controlled Congress is already on a collision course with Obama over a major foreign policy issue. Obama has threatened to veto any new sanctions legislation, saying it could scuttle ongoing nuclear talks with Iran and heighten the risk of a military showdown. Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday quoted an unidentified Israeli intelligence official as saying that adding sanctions now “would be like throwing a grenade into the process.” But Boehner is not backing down. He told a private meeting of GOP lawmakers that Congress would proceed on further penalties against Iran despite Obama’s warning. “He expects us to stand idly by and do nothing while he cuts a bad deal with Iran,” Boehner said. “ ... We’re going to do no such thing.” The Democrats’ House leader, Nancy Pelosi of California,

Iraq premier says ground troops need more aid

BAGHDAD – Iraq’s prime minister on Wednesday appealed for more aid for the country’s beleaguered ground forces, which have yet to score a decisive victory against the Islamic State group despite five months of U.S.-led coalition air raids. In an interview with The Associated Press, Haider al-Abadi praised the coalition’s air campaign but said the international community has stalled on commitments to train and equip the ground forces needed to retake major cities. “We are in this almost on our own,” he said. “There is a lot being said and spoken, but very little on the ground.” U.S., Cuba spar over He spoke as he was leaving migration policy for London to take part in a HAVANA – The United States meeting Thursday on the war said Wednesday it dispatched effort with foreign ministers additional ships to the Florida from about 20 countries, Straits to halt Cuban rafters but including Arab states.

Boehner has invited Netanyahu to address Congress about Iran. strongly disagreed. She said Obama has had diplomatic success in bringing countries together for the current economic sanctions aimed at stopping Iran’s nuclear program. And she said it would be “irresponsible” for Congress to impose new penalties that “could undermine the negotiations and undermine the diplomatic coalition that is there – the permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany.” The White House said Boehner’s invitation also was a breach of diplomatic protocol. Traditionally, no administration would learn about a foreign leader’s plan to visit the United States from the speaker of the House, said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki. Said Boehner: “I don’t believe I am poking anyone in the eye.” The invitation was a coordinated effort involving Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell with staff discussions beginning last

dency to any Cuban who touches U.S. soil. Its government blames the Cold War policy for luring tens of thousands of Cubans a year to make perilous journeys by sea and land to try to reach the United States. Still, many Cubans are worried the elimination of the rules would take away their chance to have a better life in the U.S. U.S. officials reported a spike in the number of rafters attempting to reach Florida after the Dec. 17 announcement that the countries would move to normalize ties. Those numbers appear to have slowed in recent days.

year, according to a senior Republican aide, who spoke only on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to publicly discuss the private talks. Boehner contacted the Israeli ambassador on Jan. 8 to assess Netanyahu’s interest and received a positive response. Netanyahu stands to gain politically at home from the U.S. visit. He is in a tough fight to win re-election in Israel’s upcoming March vote. Netanyahu’s Likud Party is running behind the main opposition group headed by Yitzhak Herzog’s Labor Party, which has been highlighting rancor in the country’s critical relationship with the United States. The image of Netanyahu addressing Congress – an infrequent honor for a world leader – could undercut his opposition’s message. At the same time, he risks aggravating the tense relationship he currently has with the Obama administration.

second largest city, Mosul. The failure of the security forces was largely attributed to the sectarian policies of al-Abadi’s predecessor, Nouri al-Maliki. Since assuming office in September, al-Abadi has reached out to the Kurdish and Sunni minorities and sought to revamp the armed forces, but the army has yet to retake much ground.

Lab tests imply risk in some e-cigarette vapor Using certain electronic cigarettes at high temperature settings could potentially release more formaldehyde, a cancer-causing chemical, than smoking traditional cigarettes does, new lab tests suggest. The research does not prove a health risk – it involved limited testing on just one brand of e-cigarettes and was done in test tubes, not people. It also does not mean e-cigarettes are better or worse than regular ones; tobacco smoke contains dozens of things that can cause cancer. But it does highlight how little is known about the safety of e-cigarettes – battery-powered devices that heat liquid to deliver nicotine in a vapor rather than from burning tobacco. “It’s a potential red flag,” one independent expert – Stephen Hecht, a chemist and tobacco researcher at the University of Minnesota – said of the study. “Under some conditions, e-cigarettes might be generating more formaldehyde than you’d want to be exposed to. But I don’t think we know enough yet. There’s a huge variety in the makeup of these cigarettes and how they are used.” The study was published Wednesday as a letter in the New England Journal of Medicine. The journal said it had been reviewed by experts in the field.

BOYS BASKETBALL: MARIAN CENTRAL 72 CRYSTAL LAKE S. 64

WOODSTOCK – Trailing Crystal Lake South by 19 points early in the second quarter, Marian Central boys basketball coach Curtis Price expressed complete optimism during a timeout. Or so he says. “Guys, we’re fine,” Price remembers saying. “We’re going to come back and we’re going to win this game. I never doubted my guys at all.” Really? Even after the nearly flawless first quarter the Gators (11-7) played? After the way Gators junior Zachary Geske looked like he could score from anywhere on the court – and pretty much did, sinking a half-court shot to end the first quarter? Price grabbed his nearest assistant coach. “Coach,” he asked. “What did I say?” The coach confirmed his story and the Hurricanes did their part to complete the comeback, defeating Crystal Lake South, 72-64, at Marian Central High School. Marian Central (10-11) was led by junior Adam Pischke, who scored 12 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter. Senior forward Nick Waytula (16) and sophomore Sam Ohlrich (10) also scored in double figures. Since Price stressed defense sparked the comeback, it’s probably appropriate to begin with Kyler Hardie. The senior guard gets his playing time sporadically. Or some games, not at all.

HUNTLEY – Huntley did not exactly scorch the nets with its 34 percent field-goal shooting. Yet the Red Raiders compensated with solid defense and proficient ballhandling, committing only four turnovers for their entire game against McHenry. “We kept the pressure up the whole game on them and we concentrated and ran our offense well, and made the smart plays and didn’t force anything,” Huntley freshman point guard J.J. Flores said. The Warriors struggled with shooting (27.7 percent) and turnovers (21), leading to a 41-27 Huntley victory in their Fox Valley Conference Valley Division boys basketball game Wednesday night. “We didn’t shoot the ball great, but it didn’t affect our defense,” Red Raiders coach Will Benson said. “The kids have matured and really taken to heart that the offensive end can’t affect the defensive end. It didn’t tonight.” Huntley (7-11 overall, 2-1 FVC Valley) has grown immensely since its 1-7 start. After graduating eight of their top 10 players, the Raiders were starting new.

Gase adds to impressive new staff The Bears have been on a bit of a roll ever since Black Monday, the day after the 2014 season ended. Now the hits just keep on coming with the news they have hired Adam Gase to be their offensive coordinator. How often does a team get to hire two of its top candidates for its head-coaching job? Gase interviewed with the Bears for the top job and was reported to be a strong contender until John Fox became available and eventually accepted the job. Gase also was a serious contender for the 49ers’ head job and to be able to add him now as Fox’s chief lieutenant on

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush offense continues to add to the all-startype feeling the Bears’ coaching staff is cultivating. Gase should come with a bit of a feel for the Bears after spending his first five seasons in the NFL in Detroit as a Lions scouting assistant (2003-04), offensive assistant (2005-06) and quarterbacks coach (2007). Gase then spent a year in San Francisco as an offensive assistant (2008) before

moving to Denver as the wide receivers coach for two seasons (2009-10) before Fox arrived. In 2011 and ’12, Gase was the quarterbacks coach to both Tim Tebow and Peyton Manning and he took over as the offensive coordinator in 2013 and 2014 after Mike McCoy moved on to be the head coach of the Chargers. It is impossible to escape the questions about how much the success of the Broncos’ offense was because of Manning and how much credit should go to Gase, AP file photo but there is no way to spin Gase’s experiDenver offensive coordinator Adam Gase speaks to reporters after ence with Manning negatively.

Chargers score historic win By CHRIS CASEY

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK IAN MULLEN McHenry, sr. Mullen won the Batavia Tournament at 106 pounds on Saturday and beat two ranked opponents. In the finals, he pinned Burlington Central’s Austin Macias, ranked No. 2 in Class 2A by illinoismatmen.com, in 2:32. Mullen (25-3) decisioned No. 11-ranked Nevin Thielk from Sandwich, 8-2, in the semifinals. Mullen is an honorable mention in 3A. NORTHWEST HERALD POWER RANKINGS 1. McHenry – The Warriors beat Dundee-Crown on Jan. 15 and Huntley on Friday to finish their sweep of the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division. On Saturday, McHenry placed fourth at Batavia. 2. Jacobs – The Golden Eagles defeated Huntley on Jan. 15 and won eight individual titles and a team championship at Urbana. 3. Crystal Lake Central – The Tigers beat Woodstock on Jan. 15 and look to wrap up the FVC Fox Division with matches against Woodstock North and Prairie Ridge next week. On Saturday, Central lost to Oak Park-River Forest but had wins against South Elgin and the OPRF junior varsity. 4. Huntley – After losing two FVC Valley duals, the Red Raiders picked up three more losses at Stevenson on Saturday, but can’t complain about the level of competition. Huntley lost to No. 4 ranked Marmion, No. 13 Deerfield and the host Patriots, ranked No. 18. 5. Harvard – The Hornets had Big Northern Conference wins against Winnebago and Stillman Valley on Saturday. NOTEWORTHY Weekend champions: On Saturday, 11 area wrestlers from three schools won tournament titles. Jacobs led the group with eight firsts at the Urbana Invitational. Winning for the Golden Eagles were Beau Harrier (17-5) at 113 pounds, Cody Ferencz (23-4; 120), David Dudych (20-5; 126), Chris Dranka (26-3; 132), Dean Lane (224; 145), Michael Ricks (22-4; 170), Michael Bujacz (21-3; 182) and Jack Golnick (21-6; 195). Jacobs won eight of its nine championship matches at Urbana. At Batavia, McHenry’s Cam Pait won at 170 to improve to, 6-0. Pait, a senior, has been injured most of the season and is looking to make a run at qualifying for his first state tournament. He finished fifth at the Class 3A Barrington Sectional last season and was a sectional qualifier the past two years. Johnsburg’s Branden Peshek (301) won the Margaret Flott Invitational at Kaneland in Maple Park at 138. Lasting memory: Last season at state, Crystal Lake South’s Eric Barone won his first-round match with a 55-second pin. His next four matches all went to tiebreaker, two to ultimate tiebreaker. In the semifinals, Barone lost, 4-3, in an ultimate tiebreaker to eventual state champion Larry Early III from Oak Park-River Forest. Early defeated Hononegah’s Fernie Silva in the finals, 7-3. Asked if he still thought about how close his fifth-place finish was to winning a state title, Barone was quick to reply. “Every day. I think about it every day,” Barone said. “It never slips my mind.” It could be more of the same this season. Early is ranked No. 1 followed by Silva and Barone at 145.

STANDOUT STATS

ccasey@shawmedia.com CARY – It had been 14 straight losses for DundeeCrown girls basketball against Cary-Grove coming into Wednesday night’s game. Creighton Fed scored a game-high 14 points and Melissa Barker made a couple timely 3s to help Dundee-Crown hold off the Trojans, 48-47, for the first time since 2007. Dundee-Crown (10-13, 2-5 FVC Valley) had leads as big as 10 and 11, but it took a Kayla Lawrence free throw with 29 seconds remaining to give the Chargers the FVC Valley Division win. “I was proud of the way we stayed with our plan,” D-C

coach Sarah Miller said. “They made some runs and closed the gaps, but we never put our heads down. It was ugly at times and a battle, but we had a couple things go our way at the end. It was a good win for us.” Cary-Grove (8-11, 2-4) was playing without leading scorer Katie Barker because of a knee injury. As hard as it was to play without Barker, Cary coach Rod Saffert knew it was a chance for other players to step up. The Trojans did get a couple opportunities to win the game. One possession resulted in a turnover and a desperation 3-pointer at the buzzer was off the mark by Katie Sowa. Although the late game execution wasn’t its sharpest without Katie Barker in there, Saf-

fert was proud of the effort and did not think for once, during the double-digit deficits, that his team was out of the game, which they actually led by one after three quarters. “It’s not like us to give up and quit,” Saffert said. “I knew we would battle back. There were quite a few girls that scored tonight who don’t normally score. We aren’t in the conference race anymore so we would like to see what we have here heading towards regionals.” The Trojans weren’t the only ones playing injured. D-C was without center Allison Michalski (ACL), who Miller confirmed will miss the rest of the season, as well as sophomore Paige Gieseke. Wednesday night the Char-

gers got a big lift from Ashley Hrinowich. Looking at the box score wouldn’t be evidence of what junior guard did to help the Chargers get the win. “I’m mostly a defensive player,” Hrinowich said. “I had a couple open shots tonight and made them, but I was just trying to do whatever I could to help us to get the win.” “Ashley was huge for us tonight,” Miller said. “She’s one of the shortest girls out there but you’ll see her battling for rebounds and loose balls. She deserves the minutes she’s getting and I’m really proud of how she played tonight.” In Katie Barker’s absence, Sowa and Candace Cunningham led the Trojans with 12 points apiece.

GIRLS BASKETBALL

Barker to sit out at least 2 weeks with knee injury By CHRIS CASEY ccasey@shawmedia.com CARY – After feeling something pop in her left knee last Tuesday at practice, Katie Barker knew something wasn’t right. After sitting out a day of practice, Barker decided to give it a go as the Trojans headed to face Huntley. C-G coach Rod Saffert

knew after a 36-30 loss that Barker just wasn’t herself. She received an MRI on her left knee Monday, and the senior guard has been Katie instructed to Barker take a twoweek break from basketball, with physical therapy and

rehab three times a week. “They gave me some medicine to take as well, so with that and the physical therapy, I’m hoping that in two weeks everything will be back to normal,” Barker said. The Trojans played without the 1,000-point scorer Wednesday in a 48-47 loss to Dundee-Crown. Saffert knows it was a big

blow to lose a player like Barker, but stressed it is more of an opportunity than ever for other girls to step up into bigger roles. The timetable is still up in the air for when she will see the court again, but she has one thing on her mind. “If everything goes according to plans, I hope to be back for senior night and regionals.”

“We’ve been spending a lot more time together and jelling,” he said. “It helped. We’ve been talking in the locker room, having team dinners, all that stuff helps.” Flores and D.J. Cruz added seven points apiece for Huntley, while Jack Bessey scored six. Nick Bellich led McHenry with seven points, with Matt Mohr and Deshawn Wilson each adding six. “Game in and game out, our defense has been pretty good, making teams shot over the top and rebound,” Warriors coach Tim Paddock said. “Scoring’s been difficult for us. We’re taking some good shots and they’re not going in. They had some defensive pressure on us, but there were a lot of unforced turnovers, where we were loose with the ball and that led to some easy buckets for them.”

GIRLS BASKETBALL: WOODSTOCK 47 WOODSTOCK N. 27

Streaks use ‘D’ to slow Thunder By TIM SIECK sports@nwherald.com WOODSTOCK – Woodstock North’s Ashley Jones showed Wednesday how important the rivalry is between the Thunder and Woodstock. In a close game at the start of the fourth quarter, the senior dislocated her pinky finger and refused to leave the game for treatment. However, for Jones and the Thunder, Woodstock was the better team as the Blue Streaks defeated Woodstock North, 4227, in Fox Valley Conference Fox Division play at Woodstock High School. The Blue Streaks (14-6, 5-2 FVC Fox) came out ready to play against their crosstown rival. Woodstock had great ball movement early and made the first five shot attempts taken to jump out to a quick 10-4 lead. That would be the only hot shooting stretch for either team as the rest of the game turned into a defensive struggle. Woodstock shot only 3 for 18 the rest of the first half while the Thunder went 5 for 23. “We really focus on our defense for most of our practice and really try to stop our opponent from penetrating,” Woodstock coach Jen Nichols-Hogle said. “Woodstock North has a lot of talented players who can really shoot and we did a nice job of slowing them down tonight.” The physicality of the first half continued after halftime as both teams had every shot contested and combined for 16 turnovers in the third quarter. Woodstock North was just 1 for 12 in the third quarter as Woodstock increased the lead to nine points. Woodstock was led by Brecken Overly with 10 points and eight rebounds and Jenifer Crain added nine points for the Blue Streaks. Woodstock North (4-17, 1-6) was led by Jones with eight points. Haley Ahr had seven points and Rhetta Bates added six. For Thunder coach Mike Lewis, Wednesday was a game of missed opportunities. “We had some really good looks but missed a lot of layups tonight,” Lewis said. “We played hard but they were able to make more shots than we did and that is what decided the game.”

BLACKHAWKS 3, PENGUINS 2 (SO)

Hawks carry momentum into All-Star break By WILL GRAVES The Associated Press PITTSBURGH – With a couple of flicks of the wrist, the Blackhawks headed into the NHL All-Star break with momentum. Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane beat Marc-Andre Fleury in a shootout to lift the Blackhawks to a 3-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Wednesday night. The Hawks improved to 8-2 in games decided after regulation when Toews beat Fleury between the legs, and Kane followed with a wrist shot the goalie watched sail by his blocker. “We have great confidence,” Toews said. “Our goaltender can make stops and we have shooters who like to be in that situation. We like our odds given the circumstance.” The Hawks also regained

swagger after a pair of decisive home losses to Winnipeg and Dallas. The Hawks thumped Arizona, 6-1, on Tuesday and backed it up by surviving a game effort from the undermanned Penguins to win in Pittsburgh for only the second time since 1997. “Even if things aren’t going so well, we’re good at taking responsibility for it and not dragging our feet around and dwelling on what we’re not doing or what’s not going our way,” Toews said. “We just find ways that we can make things better, and we showed an example of that in the last two games.” David Rundblad and Marian Hossa scored in regulation for the Hawks. Corey Crawford made 33 saves and held Pittsburgh’s David Perron and Sidney Crosby in check in the shootout. “It was a tough game,”

Hawks coach Joel Quenneville said. “You find when you win these types of games, it makes you a good team.” Zach Sill scored his first NHL goal and Steve Downie added his eighth of the season for the Penguins. Fleury stopped 24 shots but Pittsburgh hobbled into the break with a fourth straight loss, among them a bruising overtime defeat in Philadelphia on Tuesday that included injuries to stars Kris Letang and Evgeni Malkin. Letang was held out as a precaution after a frightening collision with Philadelphia’s Zac Rinaldo. Malkin skated during warm-ups on Wednesday before telling trainers he couldn’t play because of an undisclosed issue. Malkin’s status for All-Star weekend is uncertain. The absence of two vital parts of Pittsburgh’s core took

akantecki@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Jacobs girls basketball coach Joe Benoit believes a challenging early schedule has prepared the Golden Eagles for the second round of conference play. The Golden Eagles ended the first half of their Fox Valley Conference slate on a high note Wednesday night, jumping out to a 17-point halftime lead against McHenry en route to a 52-33 FVC Valley victory at the Eagles’ Nest. “Our kids deserve to enjoy that feeling of success tonight,” Benoit said. “They’ve been putting in a tremendous amount of work and our schedule has been brutal. I feel pretty confident that we have one of the harder schedules around.” The win gives Jacobs (7-12, 1-4 FVC Valley) its first conference win of the season. The Warriors (9-10, 2-2) handed the Eagles a 43-34 loss in both teams’ conference opener on Dec. 2. Three Jacobs starters finished in double figures, led by 5-foot-3 junior guard Talia Surges’ 14 points on 4 of 8 shooting. Sophomore forward Carly Sidor had 12 points and five rebounds, and senior Jennifer Barnec added 10, including two 3-pointers. Leading 17-12 after the first quarter, Jacobs went on a 12-0 run in the first three minutes of the second quarter, sparked by a pair of 3s from Jessica Powell (seven points) and Barnec. Sidor, who scored all 11 of her points in the first half, converted a three-point play with 4:45 remaining in the half to push the Eagles’ lead to 29-12. “We knew that playing fast and pushing the ball is our game,” said Surges, who added four assists and five rebounds in the win. “That’s how we play our best so we knew we had to do that right from the start, and

McHenry hit just 4 of 18 shots between the second and third quarters while Jacobs built on its lead with a 20-point second-quarter. It wasn’t until the final 20 seconds of the second when McHenry made its first field goals of the quarter. Abby Ross (five points) made both baskets, sinking a 3 and putting in a layup after making a steal to end the half. “They absolutely stuck it to us,” McHenry coach Rob Niemic said. “At no point during the 32 minutes did we deserve to win. … That looked like a defensive effort from the summer.” Lindsey Skinner, who knocked down three 3s, and Alex Martens each had nine points to lead the Warriors.

Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau yells to his players Monday during a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers in Cleveland.

BULLS

GM dismisses report Thibodeau on hot seat By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Tom Thibodeau either doesn’t burn easily or actually doesn’t put much stock into several reports that had the Bulls coach on the “hot seat” in the midst of a 2-6 losing streak. It could be both. Thibodeau wasted very little time – or words – dwelling on the “hot seat” topic after the Wednesday practice, saying “Could care less, I could,” when asked for a reaction of the rumors. His front office was equally dismissive. “No,” general manager Gar Forman said in a text, when asked if there had been discussions about Thibodeau’s job security. “It’s not a story.” It actually was, but one that might not have a lot of legs as far as the regular season is concerned. After the season? That’s a different chapter, but the idea that the Bulls would make a coaching change if the spiral downward continued? Highly unlikely. “I think it’s important that we all are in this together, that we share that,” veteran big man Pau Gasol said, when asked about his coach feeling the heat. “I think it’s a bad sign when there’s cracks, when people start pointing fingers, start talking negatively about

any individual that is part of the group, whether it’s a coach or a player. I think that shows, again, weakness and shows disruption. So right now, what we’re showing is togetherness and that’s what we want to continue to show as a team.” What they were able to show Wednesday was an ability to practice. All of them. Even with Joakim Noah (right ankle/left knee) unable to do all the work, it was enough for Thibodeau to walk away feeling as if there was hope that Noah and Mike Dunleavy (right ankle) would be making quick returns. What Thibodeau did acknowledge was the Wednesday practice was one of the few this season in which all bodies were accounted for, and able to go most of the way with very few restrictions. “Very few,” Thibodeau said, when asked how many complete practices he’s actually been able to conduct this season. “And that’s really where you build your chemistry and continuity.” That backed the comments from Taj Gibson from Monday night’s loss in Cleveland

in which the power forward insisted, “We gotta practice harder and we can’t be taking days off.” “Anytime you go through a stretch like this there’s disappointment, and so the big thing is for everyone to put a little more in,” Thibodeau said of Gibson’s comments. “And we have the type of guys that will. They’re not going to let things drag on. That’s what we have to do. “What we’ve done in the past is we’ve been down a player before, and obviously dealt with Jo being out, but it was basically Jo by himself. And then when Derrick [Rose] was out, he was out by himself. But now we’ve had multiple starters out, we’ve had four rotation guys out, stuff like that, but we’ve got to get through that.” As far as this idea that Thibodeau was losing the locker room or the players were tired of his grind-it-out mentality, that seemed to be an idea very lost on Gasol. “That was not a concern,” Gasol said. “To me, honestly, I don’t think Tom is that hardcore. I don’t think we practice that hard. We do what we need to do, and he tries his best with us just like we try our best. We have to get on the same page, not really pointing fingers but being positive with each other.”

As you wind your way through the aisles of exhibits at the outdoor shows, you will be overwhelmed by booth after booth displaying camps, outfitters and vacation spots. The shows are a great place to plan and book an upcoming vacation, but how do you make a decision? The exhibits show the best facets of an operation, which only makes sense. The brochures are glossy and filled with pictures of the best trophies caught at the location. It’s hard to make a valid decision. First of all, don’t fall into the trap of making a rash decision. If you are going to a show with the intention of finding a vacation spot, you need to have a plan in mind. Your budget is the ultimate factor in deciding. Figure out exactly what you can spend. Come up with a cap and make sure that you don’t go over it. Like buying a car, you can keep adding options you can’t afford – do not do it. Stick to your figure. You can always find a place that will fit your budget. Transportation costs are something that need to be taken into account. Although the price of gas right now is something to be enjoyed, it may not last forever. What exactly is the cost of fueling up your SUV for a Canadian adventure? Maybe Wisconsin fits your budget better. Find out what is included in the price you are quoted. Some places charge extra for live bait. Some places will charge you for gas used in your boat. Some places charge for cleaning and packing your fish. These additional charges can really add up and come as quite a nasty surprise at the end of your vacation. You need to ask a lot of questions of the person in the show booth. Find out if the person manning the booth is an owner or an employee. A lot of resorts get customers to man their booths in return for discounted trips. Of course, the customers are happy with the resort, otherwise they wouldn’t be customers. Besides, they are only at

Not only are they fun, but for the clubs and groups that put them on, they are a major fundraiser. This week on Saturday, we have the Crystal Lake Anglers event and on Sunday, you can go to the Wonder Lake Sportsman’s Club derby. I fished Crystal Lake on Monday for the last hour of daylight and caught 15 bluegills. I kept seven for dinner and the rest went back. I used gold and pink/white tungsten jigs tipped with a wiggler or a spike. I was in 5 to 6 feet of water and had good green weeds there. I have had good reports of crappie on the Fox Chain as well. Crappie minnows or wigglers should do the job. They were suspended in 6 to 15 feet of water.”

the resort for one week a year and don’t have full knowledge of what the place is like all season long. Ask about the fishing. Tell them what you are looking to fish for and what your skill level is and find out how their place fits you. If jigging for lake trout in ultradeep water is not your cup of tea, why book a trip for a week that only promises that type of action? Looking at brochures is fun, but try to remember that they feature the best things a resort can show. If there are 10 pictures of happy anglers holding fantastic trophy fish, might it actually be that those 10 pictures are the only great

fish caught all year? You’ll never know. I once planned a trip based on a brochure. I had to cancel because of circumstances beyond my control. I was later told by someone who had made a trip that year to that location that it was lucky for me that I had not been able to go. They said that there were a total of 10 cabins at the resort. The brochure showed a number of pictures of the lodging, but all the pictures were of the same cabin. The cabin in the brochure was beautiful, they said. However, the other nine were total dumps. They were absolutely disgusted by the conditions that they were forced to live in for their “week in paradise.” The best thing you can do is to ask the resort for some names of customers that they can furnish as references. Of course, they aren’t going to give you names of people who don’t like their establishment, but even the happiest clients will give you honest information and not try to exaggerate. If you ask for the references, don’t just assume that by getting them, the resort has nothing to hide. Make the phone calls. Contact the references and find out all you can about the place. This is the best research you can do and will help to make your decision the correct one. • Shaw Media outdoors columnist Steve Sarley can be reached at sarley@ shawmedia.com.

Cheating or competing? Not always easy to decipher What is cheating? If you’re an offensive lineman and you find a way to illegally hold a defensive tackle on every play without officials noticing, is it cheating? If you’re a coach and you’ve been deflating footballs so your receivers can make catches more easily, is it cheating if no one knows Bill about it? Belichick Most of us would say the first case is the lesser transgression, by far, but in reality, both are examples of the same thing: trying to gain an unfair competitive advantage. Or, as it’s commonly called, cheating. (I don’t want to get into a discussion about what holding is in the NFL. We’d have an easier time agreeing on the meaning of life.)

Sports are a morality play but with lots of gray areas in which the good guys aren’t always distinguishable from the villains. Ever since our hairy ancestors starting corking their clubs for the rock-hitting contest, there has been cheating in sports. The NFL is investigating whether the Patriots used deflated footballs during their 45-7 victory Sunday over the Colts in the AFC championship game. According to ESPN, New England underinflated 11 of its 12 game balls Sunday. Patriots coach Bill Belichick initially said he wasn’t aware of the issue, although this is the same guy who once had to pay a $500,000 fine for spying on another team. Deflating balls to make them softer for receivers – cheating or competing? As late Supreme Court justice Potter Stewart famously said

VIEWS Rick Morrissey of pornography, “I know it when I see it.” If the allegations are true, Belichick is naked here, with no hoodie in sight. Sorry for the imagery. But what I call cheating, you might call using everything at one’s disposal. I think using steroids is unfair, immoral and dangerous, but some people have no problem with them and believe athletes should be able to take drugs to get stronger and healthier. Cheating has been going on forever – I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard that counterargument to the scourge of steroids. File that under “All’s fair in love and war.” Pete Rose recently said Roger Clemens and Barry

Bonds belong in the Baseball Hall of Fame, never mind the widespread accusations of steroid use against them. That might seem like an arsonist defending two burglars, but Rose speaks for a lot of Americans. Yet I’d ask the pro-steroids crowd: Where do we draw the line? Should prostheses be allowed, a la Olympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius? There is little doubt that technology one day will surpass, at a sprint, the limbs we were given at birth. Bionic running blades will be an unfair competitive advantage, and there surely are people who would give an arm and a leg to win a gold medal. But taking the anti-prostheses argument to the extreme, corrective eyewear and Tommy John surgery are also unfair competitive advantages. Did the 1985 Bears cheat by gobbling down nonprescribed

NFL BRIEFS

painkillers, as some players from the team say they did? If it allowed them to play at levels they wouldn’t have been able to play at otherwise, then the answer would have to be yes. But what if everyone in the NFL were doing the same thing at the time? If everyone is cheating, there’s no competitive advantage, correct? I think the ultimate answer is what our moms used to say: Just because everybody is doing it doesn’t make it right. That’s the best way to dismiss Lance Armstrong, who turned out to be more rolling medicine cabinet than professional cyclist. He said every other elite competitor was using drugs to make it through the Tour de France. Very, very not OK, Lance, especially when you’ve inspired millions with your comeback from cancer. Most of us would agree

that stealing intellectual property from another business is a crime. But that’s what Belichick tried to do in 2007, when he had an assistant spy on the Jets in order to get their defensive signals. Cheating, right? But what about stealing signs in baseball? Gamesmanship, we’re told – a part of the game going way back. Some things strike us as more wrong than others. Deflating balls seems more serious than, say, an offensive lineman holding an opponent. The spirit of the game, and all that. It’s not cheating if you don’t get caught? Yeah, it still is, but there are venial sins and cardinal sins. Most of the time we can tell the difference. • Rick Morrissey is a Chicago Sun-Times sports columnist.

Gase helps Bears trend in the right direction • ARKUSH Continued from page C1 Who wouldn’t kill to be co-captain an offense with one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time? At the age of 36, Gase and Manning were peers as well as coach and player, and it is reasonable to assume that could bode well if he is asked to mentor Jay Cutler. Ryan Pace and Fox have been basically silent on the subject of Cutler, but common sense and market conditions suggest Cutler is most likely to be the Bears’ quarterback in 2015. It is at least possible that Gase will find more common ground with Cutler than any of his previous coaches have and whatever you think of Cutler, he is not stupid. The lessons Gase can bring from his time with Manning could prove invaluable in finally turning the game’s highest paid player into a viable field general. That said, don’t think for a minute Gase was brought to Chicago because of Cutler. He obviously has a strong working rapport with Fox and it’s worth noting his offensive line coach, Dave Magazu, is here now as well, which should promise strong cohesion and allow the Bears’ new offensive brain trust to hit the ground running.

natell taking over the Bears’ defense, and of course the older veteran persona of Fox as well, Gase’s youth and fresh perspectives to help balance this staff worked strongly in his favor in winning out over Weis. The unknown about Gase is while he was clearly in charge in Denver, with Peyton Manning calling so many of his own plays at the line of scrimmage, it remains to be seen how effective a play-caller he will be. If Fox believes he can do

it, there is no reason for the rest of us to worry for now. This much is not open to debate. Coming off a Super Bowl appearance in his first year as a coordinator and being a serious contender for head coaching opportunities, Gase gives the Bears a new offensive coordinator whose star is definitely trending up. • Chicago Football editor Hub Arkush can be reached at harkush@chicagofootball.com or on Twitter @Hub_Arkush.

Bears will not raise season ticket prices for next season By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@chicagofootball.com

and KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com In a letter to season-ticket holders that begins by describing the 2014 season as one that ended in “total disappointment,” team president Ted Phillips said the club won’t raise season ticket prices in 2015. In addition, Phillips said the team will introduce new enhancements to Soldier Field and continued improvements to the year-round experience for our loyal and dedicated fans. “Our goal is simple,” Phillips wrote in the letter. “Play tough and smart and bring the Super Bowl trophy back to Chicago for the greatest fans in the world.” Nonclub season ticket packages range from $81 to $175 a game and account for about 85 percent of the seating at Soldier Field. United Club seating season tickets range in price from $275 to $500 a game, according to the team. Season-ticket holders will continue, the team announced, to see a $25 a game savings for each regular season ticket as competed to the individual game price. The Bears have home dates with Arizona, Denver, Oakland, San Francisco, Washington and against NFC rivals Detroit, Green Bay and Minnesota. The Bears finished last season 5-11, which brought an end to the Marc Trestman and Phil Emery era. By the end of the season, the team was announcing no-shows at home game that grew as the year lingered on, reaching more than 10,000 by the home finale. The Bears have failed to miss the playoffs in seven of the past eight years, but in the letter to season-ticket holders, Phillips indicated to fans that “It is time to bring back a winning identity to the Chicago Bears.” The letter also pointed to the hiring of new general

manager Ryan Pace and head coach John Fox as signs that the team is ready for a change in direction. When the team announced the firing of Trestman and Emery, Bears chairman said he can understand the frustration Bears fans are feeling. He counted his mother, Bears principal owner Virginia McCaskey in that group, saying she is “pissed off.” “She’s fed up with mediocrity,” George McCaskey said a day after the regular season ended with a loss to the Vikings. “She feels that she and Bears fans everywhere deserve better.” In the letter to fans, Phillips said the franchise is taking “decisive action” to bring the Bears back to prominence.

Bears hire Ed Donatell to coach defensive backs: The Bears hired Ed Donatell as their defensive backs coach Wednesday. Donatell spent the past four seasons with Ed new Bears deDonatell fensive coordinator Vic Fangio coaching the 49ers’ defensive backs. Jon Hoke, who spent six seasons with the Bears and was the only holdover from Lovie Smith’s staff to stick through the 2014 season, will not return. Donatell has 24 years of coaching experience in the NFL and 36 overall. Before his time in San Francisco, Donatell coached the Broncos’ secondary from 2009-10. He was the University of Washington’s defensive coordinator in ’08 and a special assistant for the Jets in ’07. From 2004-06, Donatell was the Falcons’ defensive coordinator and he ran the Packers’ defense from 2000-03. Donatell coached the Broncos’ defensive backs from 1995-99 and the Jets’ DBs from 199094. As a player, Donatell was an all-conference defensive back at Glenville State University.

FIVE-DAY PLANNER

WHITE SOX

Guillen looks forward to ’05 reunion By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com Blending the nostalgic embrace of a cherished World Series championship and an eventful offseason that has White Sox fans contemplating the possibility of another, this weekend’s SoxFest gathering at the Chicago Hilton figures to have a charged vibe not felt since, well, Ozzie Guillen last attended in 2011. This one won’t, however, include the electric presence of Guillen, the former Sox All-Star, Gold Glove and Rookie of the Year shortstop who managed the 2005 team to the franchise’s first World Series title since 1917. Guillen, whose relationship with the Sox appears to be mending, has been watching son Ozney play postseason winter ball in Colombia, and he will be inducted into the Latino Baseball Hall of Fame in the Dominican Republic on Feb. 7, all of which makes the timing of attending SoxFest somewhat tricky. The Sox invited Guillen to both SoxFest and to a bigger ’05 reunion event at U.S. Cellular Field that is planned for the weekend of July 17. Guillen said he’ll be there this summer, provided he can be released from his broadcast duties with ESPN Deportes and ESPN. “SoxFest is for the fans,” Guillen said. “The fans deserve to have most of the [current] players there to spend time and have fun with. White Sox fans this year should be more excited than they have in the past because the product on the

field will be a good one.” Ending a successful but stormy managerial career with the Sox that began in 2004, Guillen was cut loose by chairman Jerry Reinsdorf in late September of the 2011 season to allow him to become the Miami Marlins manager. With three years left on his contract, Guillen was fired after one season and hasn’t been on the field since. He attended games at U.S. Cellular Field last season, and Reinsdorf attended Ozzie Jr.’s wedding, signs the relationship is improving. “Things aren’t great but it’s a lot better and if I go in July it’s because I think the players and the fans deserve everybody there,” Guillen said. “I don’t have anything against the White Sox, I never did. But if it happens, it happens, that’s part of the game. But to say I hate them? Have we had disagreements? Yes, but it’s not something I was bitter about. “Are things getting better? Yes. Is it great? No. But I hope it gets great, yes. Time will see how it’s going to go.” Guillen, who celebrated his 51st birthday Tuesday, signed a fouryear, $10 million deal through 2015 in Miami and will be on the Marlins payroll for one more season. He wants to manage or coach again and expressed a desire to return to the Sox, but there have been no offers from anyone. “I’d rather be on the field than making money playing golf,” he said. “I love to be on the field, I love to compete, I love the competition, to be at the ballpark every day.

The money I make the last couple of years, I don’t want to make that kind of money like that. It is what it is. “I’m very happy what I do [broadcasting] but I would love to manage again. If an opportunity comes it would be awesome. That’s what I love to do.” From the 2005 team, Geoff Blum, Jose Contreras, Joe Crede, Jon Garland, Orlando Hernandez, Tadahito Iguchi, Bobby Jenks, Scott Podsednik and Aaron Rowand will be at SoxFest. Guillen stays in contact with players from that team and “it will be nice to see those guys [in July] again,” he said. “I always love to see those guys. When you win everybody loves each other. I have such great memories and I managed a great group of guys, not just because they win the World Series but because they were real men on the field. They took everything like a man, they took the bull by the horns and made it easier for me.” Guillen also paid tribute to then-general manager Ken Williams, with whom he battled through numerous, well-chronicled off-field conflicts. “You know what’s funny? I was upset when Kenny didn’t win Executive of the Year,” Guillen said, “because he did a good job to put a lot of guys together who we didn’t know what they would do or how good they would be in the big leagues, who worked their way. It was a big mistake by the media to not make him Executive of the Year.”

Readers share their reasons Undescended testicle is risk for choosing to be cremated factor for testicular cancer Dear Abby: I just finished the letter from “Plotting and Planning in Arizona” (Oct. 5), regarding why cremation is so popular. There also are other reasons. My father, a World War II veteran, had planned to be buried in a national veterans’ cemetery. After his death we were informed the only option currently available was interment in the veterans’ wall of honor columbarium, because the cemetery had run out of space for traditional burials. – Proud Daughter Of WWII

More challenging classes result in higher grade point averages Dr. Wallace: I was appalled when I read your reply to a teenage girl who asked you to judge the “better” report card: one with A’s in English, geometry and Spanish or one with A’s in P.E., auto shop and art. You chose the first one. Would you also say Shakespeare was “better” than Michelangelo? Although the girl may be superior in verbal skills and formulaic problem solving, her brother is superior in creative problem solving as well as physical/visual skills. We do agree both students should be proud of their grades, however, I do not agree one report card was better than the other. Each student shows exceptional talents at different tasks, each valuable in its own right and necessary for the sake of humanity. Our society is in dire need of both of these students, and we should be eager for the girl to become a verbal communicator with logical thought and look to her brother for future technological advances and expressive communication. I commend them both and their report cards equally. For you, Dr. Wallace, I suggest you enroll in an art class. In a good one you will find yourself quite intellectually challenged. – Art teacher, Seattle Teacher: I have taken challenging classes in art in both high school and college, and enjoyed them immensely. Art

‘TWEEN 12 & 20 Dr. Robert Wallace is an important program, but I feel that courses in geometry, English and a foreign language are more challenging for most students. When computing grade point averages, many schools rate an A in geometry and other selected courses higher than an A in physical education. That’s why some students graduate with a grade point average of more than 4.0, which is a straight-A average. However, all students with an A average in auto shop, P.E. or art should receive high praise from proud parents. Dr. Wallace: I’m a 17-year-old girl who needs your response as soon as possible. I had been dating an 18-year-old guy for four months, and we had a wonderful relationship. Then my boyfriend started hitting me and becoming quite violent. When I first started dating, I decided I definitely would never allow myself to be in an abusive relationship because my stepfather was abusive to my mom before she divorced him. So when this violence started, I told him I could no longer go out with him. He got really upset and even threatened me over the telephone.

Dear Dr. K: I’m in my 30s. A friend of mine recently was diagnosed with testicular cancer. What should I know about this cancer? Should I be screened for it? Dear Reader: Testicular cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in one or both testicles (testes). Nearly all testicular cancers start in germ cells. These are the cells that make sperm. The testicles are located in the scrotum, behind the penis. In addition to sperm, they produce testosterone and other male hormones. (I’ve put an illustration of the male reproductive system on my website, www. askdoctork.com.) Most types of cancer affect older folks. But testicular cancer strikes young men, usually between the ages of 20 and 35 years. The biggest risk factor for the disease is an undescended testicle. Before birth, a boy’s testicles develop in the lower abdomen. They travel down into the scrotum during the seventh month of fetal development. A small percentage of boys are born with one testicle that failed to descend into the scrotum. Many descend on their own during infancy. If not, doctors can perform surgery to fix this problem. This surgery usually is done

After I stopped seeing him, I learned he also had abused a former girlfriend. A few days after I broke off with him, he started following me wherever I went. Finally, my parents insisted I report this to the police, and they picked him up and told him to stay away from me. Two days later, they arrested him for stalking me, and he was held in detention for two days. He was told if it happened again he would be locked up longer. My mother actually likes this guy and talks to him on the phone nearly every day. He has convinced her he wasn’t stalking me, but just was trying to talk to me to apologize. My mom has begun to believe his lies and thinks I have had an innocent boy arrested. Do you think I did the right thing, or was I overreacting? --

You’ve probably read the news by now that the influenza virus strains in this year’s vaccine don’t exactly match the strain of the virus floating around across the nation. What does this mean exactly? Dr. Melinda Einfalt an internal medicine physician at Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington, Ill., explains. “Every year scientists predict what flu strains will be active in the months ahead and those are the flu strains chosen to put into the vaccine. While certain years they predict the exact strain of the flu virus making the vaccine about 60 percent effective, there are years the virus changes as it is passed from one person to the next and that is what has happened this year. This year the vaccine is estimated to be about 40 percent effective.” “Really everyone should get the vaccine but the priority populations are the very young, the elderly and those with chronic health conditions such as asthma or heart problems. The complications of the flu for these patients could be very severe,” says Dr. Einfalt. The CDC’s Tips for Prevention are: • Try to avoid close contact with sick people.

• If you are sick with flulike illness, stay home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone except to get medical care or for other necessities. (Your fever should be gone without the use of a fever-reducing medicine.) • While sick, limit contact with others as much as possible to keep from infecting them. • Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it. • Wash your hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub. • Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Germs spread this way. • Clean and disinfect surfaces and objects that may be contaminated with germs like the flu. “If you haven’t already received the flu shot, it really is not too late to still get it,” concludes Dr. Einfalt. “The flu vaccine takes about two weeks to get its maximum effectiveness, but it does start imparting some benefit sooner.”

Sam Smith

NEW YORK – One sings about being “Happy,” the other croons about being sad: Pharrell and Sam Smith will perform at the Grammys next month. The Recording Academy announced Wednesday that Usher and Miranda Lambert also will take the stage at the Feb. 8 show in Los Angeles. Common and John Legend will perform their Golden Globe-winning, Oscar-nominated song, “Glory,” from the movie “Selma.” Smith, Pharrell and Beyonce are the Grammy leaders with six nominations apiece.

Anne Hathaway heading to the stage NEW YORK – Anne Hathaway will be playing something a little different this spring – an Air Force fighter pilot in a one-woman stage show. The Public Theater said Wednesday that the Academy Award-winner will star in George Brant’s play “Grounded” starting April 7. It’s about a pilot who is reassigned to operate a military drone. Visionary director Julie Taymor, behind the beauty of “The Lion King,” will direct. Hathaway, who won an Oscar in Tom Hooper’s “Les Miserables,” returns to the Public for the first time since she played Viola in a 2009 Shakespeare in the Park production. AP photo/Invision

James Taylor performs Tuesday at the Nearness of You concert at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Appel Room in New York City.

James Taylor, Paul Simon perform at benefit for Brecker NEW YORK – James Taylor and Paul Simon paid tribute to late jazz great Michael Brecker with performances and kind words at a cancer benefit for their friend who died in 2007. Taylor, who Brecker’s widow said had the flu, performed “Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight” – the first song he played with the jazz saxophonist – on Tuesday night in New York City. Taylor was on guitar as Brecker’s brother, Randy Brecker, played the trumpet. “I miss him all the time,” Taylor said after the performance. “Michael saved my life and probably a lot of other people. He led me to freedom, really from addiction, and showed a number of us the way.” He earned a large applause from the crowd of 400 at the event dubbed “The Nearness of You” concert at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Appel Room. Brecker, who died at age 57, won more than a dozen Grammy Awards and played with a number of iconic artists, including Elton John, Herbie Hancock, Joni Mitchell, Simon and Taylor. He struggled with myelodysplastic syndrome, a cancer in which the bone marrow stops producing enough healthy blood cells. Tuesday’s benefit for Brecker raised money to assist two doctors working at Columbia University Medical Center and fighting to cure MDS. The concert raised about $1.2 million, a representative said Wednesday.

New Kids on the Block: New boy bands can learn from us NEW YORK – New Kids on the Block are ready to take new boy bands on the block to school. The Boston-based veteran group, which announced a summer tour with TLC and Nelly this week, said contemporary boy bands should check out their live concerts to learn from the experts. “As far as boy bands, you know, we dance, we perform. I mean, I hate to sound like an old fogey, but these kids don’t know what they’re missing nowadays because we got to sing and dance for our supper, you know what I mean, and we love to do that,” Joey McIntyre, 42, said in an interview Tuesday at Madison Square Garden in New York City. “So maybe a few kids could come to the show and see how it’s done.” The Main Event tour kicks off May 1 in Las Vegas. Tickets go on sale Jan. 31. In the last few years, boy bands have resurged, with One Direction leading the pack, followed by 5 Seconds of Sum-

mer. Others, from The Wanted to Mindless Behavior, have had some success.

State of the Union television ratings drop to 15-year low WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address drew the second-lowest television viewership in 15 years. According to Nielsen data, 31.7 million viewers watched Tuesday night’s prime-time address on broadcast and cable networks. That’s the lowest television viewership for a State of the Union address since President Bill Clinton’s final speech to a joint session of Congress in 2000. The figures do not take into account those who streamed the speech online. The White House says there were 1.2 million views for its own “enhanced” version of the speech, which displayed charts and data about Obama’s proposals as the president spoke.

TV son says it’s painful to watch Bill Cosby face allegations LOS ANGELES – Malcolm-Jamal Warner says it’s difficult to see Bill Cosby face allegations of sexual assault. Warner, who played Cosby’s son Theo in the hit 1984-1992 sitcom “The Cosby Show,” told Billboard magazine that the comedian has been an important mentor and friend to him. The 44-year-old Warner didn’t directly Malcolmaddress the allegations made by at least 15 Jamal women, citing a lack of first-hand knowledge. Warner But he said that it’s as painful to watch Cosby face the allegations as it is to hear any woman talk about sexual assault, “whether true or not.”

Decor through the decades: How kitchen and bath product designs have evolved (BPT) - Remember when brass ﬁxtures and mauve countertops were all the rage in kitchen design? How about the days of shag carpet (yes, in the bathroom) and avocado tile? Fortunately, those particular trends have come and gone. And, whether you embraced them or not, they did have an inﬂuence on the space you live in right now. Take a look through the decades to see how decor styles have evolved into the modern kitchens and bathrooms of today. 1930s America was entering the Great Depression, and while the country’s economy was sinking, Art Deco design was giving homemakers hope by becoming more accessible to the middle class. This decor style featured polished lines, geometric shapes, metallic tones ... and let mom know it was OK to have some fun with color - especially in

The slow economy also made it a great year for creative inventions. One innovation, which you have certainly used, was the single-handle faucet. In 1939, a young Al Moen was cleaning up after an evening of work when he went to wash his hands at an old-fashioned, two-handle faucet. A sudden burst of hot water made him jump back in alarm and this moment of surprise turned out to be the inspiration for the single-handle mixing faucet - an invention that would revolutionize plumbing and allow homeowners to get warm water at the sink. 1940s With World War II ending, the 1940s brought a need for housing that was met with the mass production of simple structures, like Cape Cods. These homes were small, so interiors were kept uncluttered to maximize the space. Kitchen design was all about being practical - white cabinets helped homemakers spot dirt, while Linoleum ﬂooring and metal countertops were durable and easy to clean. To add a pop of color in the kitchen, the ladies of this decade opted for bright ﬂoral wallpaper.

greens, turquoise and creamy yellows - in both the home and the car. One room that showcased the joy of the era was the bathroom and the pastel pink sinks, toilets and tubs that came along with it. The 50s also introduced electric refrigerators, which were more efﬁcient and streamlined than their predecessors - not to mention cheaper. Like most items, they were now available in colored ﬁnishes, enabling homeowners to customize their kitchen’s decor. 1960s Common elements of the “Mad Men” era included bold geometric patterns, in both upholstery and wall coverings, along with cut-velvet fabrics and modular furniture. Colors from this decade were rich, deep, psychedelic hues, such as acid orange and neon pink.

HOMElife Easy, affordable and smart ways to protect your home from winter weather emergencies (BPT) - Snow and ice, high winds, bonechilling cold, heavy rains and ﬂooding - no matter where you live, some form of weather-related crisis may put your home, family and belongings at risk this winter. Before the worst of it arrives, it pays to take some vital steps to ensure you’ll be protected throughout the season. Americans ﬁled insurance claims that totaled nearly $2 billion in insured losses during 2013, according to the Insurance Information Institute. Weatherrelated power outages cost $25 billion to $70 billion per year, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. To ensure your home and family are protected through winter, take these easy, affordable and smart steps to prepare: • Create a family disaster plan so everyone knows what to do if severe weather

hits. Your plan should detail whether everyone should remain inside the house if they’re home or where to find appropriate shelter if they’re out. • Prepare a home emergency kit. Your kit should include a set of warm clothes for every family member, blankets, bottled water, non-perishable foods, necessary medications, first aid supplies, a battery-operated radio with extra batteries, a flashlight, matches, a list of emergency contact numbers, and a solar cellphone charger so you can stay in communication without power. • Inspect your home to ensure it’s ready for winter. Look at critical areas that may bear the brunt of a storm, such as the roof, windows and doors. Check the insulation in your attic to ensure it’s adequate and in good condition, and have your furnace and water heater professionally inspected to confirm proper functioning. • Install a backup generator to protect vital home systems - such as heat, lights and refrigeration - in case of power outages. Standby power is an affordable way to protect your home from the damages that can be associated with a power outage. A standby generator permanently connects to a home like a central air conditioning unit and automatically turns on when power is lost. Companies

like Kohler are starting to offer more compact-sized, affordable standby generators that are ideal for smaller homes, cabins or situations requiring less power. An 8, 10 or 12 kilowatt standby generator will power a few key items during an outage, such as a refrigerator, lights and sump pump. This will help keep your home up-and-running and will protect those who are most vulnerable during a power outage, including seniors and young children. Visit www. kohlergenerators.com to learn more.

The sky is the limit if you take progressive action in your personal and professional pursuits. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Don’t get carried away and exaggerate what you are capable of doing. Let your credentials speak for you, so you don’t face someone eager to make you look incompetent. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Stick to your plans, ideas and goals. Social mingling and group events will lead to petty arguments or hurt feelings. The more you can do on your own, the better off you will be.
