SENTENCE GIVEN IN DEATH OF BRIAN CARRICK

Casciaro gets 26 years

D-155 rejects union’s offer Binding arbitration refused; strike possible

Jerry Casciaro speaks to members of the media Thursday after the sentencing of his son, Mario Casciaro, at the McHenry County Courthouse in Woodstock. The younger Casciaro was sentenced to 26 years after being found guilty in April of the murder of Brian Carrick in December 2002.

Victim’s family frustrated; defendant maintains innocence

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Though Mario Casciaro is set to depart for an extended term behind bars for the death of a missing Johnsburg teen, his sentence does not bring comfort to the victim’s family, whose questions about his disappearance have gone unanswered.

A jury in April convicted Casciaro, 30, of first-degree murder for the death of 17-year-old Brian Carrick.

McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather on Thursday sentenced Casciaro to 26 years in prison.

Prather acknowledged the tragedy of the decade-long mystery that had stymied detectives; a case that was lived and breathed by prosecutors; and one that captivated the small village.

Bill Carrick leaves the courthouse after the sentencing of Casciaro in the murder of Carrick’s son, Brian Carrick.

The judge called the crime “heartbreaking” and “senseless.”

“There is no sentence the court can impose that will make anyone feel like justice has been served,” Prather said.

Carrick’s father, Bill, agreed.

“I don’t understand that word closure,” he said. “I believe in God, and I’m looking forward to seeing my son again.”

Therese Carrick wanted

answers about what happened to her brother the night he last was seen walking into Val’s Foods – a grocery store where Brian Carrick worked that was across the street from where he and his 13 siblings were raised.

“Mario knows and he chooses not to talk about his role and his actions in what happened,” Therese Carrick said on the stand, eyes locked on Casciaro. “Therefore none of us will know.”

With credit for nearly two years served in jail, Casciaro will be 54 years old when he’s released. But he maintains his innocence and has appealed the verdict.

A parade of character witnesses called him hardworking, caring, trustworthy and honest. He’d never hurt a fly, they said.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The Community High School District 155 Board of Education unanimously declined a binding arbitration offer from the teachers union Thursday, setting in motion the first formal steps toward a strike.

After more than six months of negotiations, union leaders and board members were unable to come to an agreement with the help of a federal mediator on a new contract. Teachers have been working without a contract since July 1.

Last week, the union offered binding arbitration – requiring both the union and district to honor a contract drafted by an independent party – but board members said it would not be in the best interest of the district and the community.

Board member Dave Secrest, speaking on behalf of the body, said the community elected board members and turning over contract negotiation duties to a third party would be skirting responsibilities.

“It’s not a job that should be turned over to some third party outsider that

Obama will allow canceled health plans The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – His personal and political credibility on the line, President Barack Obama reversed course Thursday and said millions of Americans should be allowed to renew individual coverage plans now ticketed for cancellation under the health care law that is likely to be at the heart of the 2014 elections.

The immediate impact on consumers was unclear, though both industry spokesmen and state insurance commissioners swiftly warned that higher prices could result from the president’s rapid turnaround.

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Cursive: A dying art I never mastered My signature is a mess. And it is the best I can do with cursive writing.

I may have missed fountain pens by a few years when growing up – ah, the advent of the 19-cent Bic pen – but cursive writing was drilled into us from third grade on. Mrs. Hickey had her work cut out with me.

Printing in block letters was so much easier, and I had mastered that.

But in third grade we were required to write in cursive. To say it was beautiful was an understatement.

One letter gracefully flowing into the next was a work of art. One that I never mastered.

And this was before I had ever heard of the word “computer” or worse yet, “texting.” I’d say, “even worse yet, Twitter,” but I have not advanced that far in social media skills.

Texting wasn’t a word in third grade, and if it was, it would have probably had something to do with reading textbooks. “Oh, Dick can’t come out and play. He had a lot of texting to catch up on.” No chance.

Not when a perfectly uninvented and uncool word could be used, “reading.”

Texting really still could be called writing and be accurate and understandable to the masses. We didn’t need a new word. Alas, we got one.

Mrs. Hickey had her hands full that year, and she probably accom-

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Dick Peterson plished more than any other teacher I have had. Not only did she have to teach cursive writing to a group of primitive printers, she had to teach division and the multiplication tables up to 12, not to mention how to use a dictionary.

We were raw material in third grade, just able to read and write coherent sentences such as “How are you?” and “I am fine” to pen pals. In cursive.

The Northwest Herald’s Shawn Shinneman reported a few weeks back about the status of cursive writing in society, and he didn’t have good news to report. Schools are not teaching it as much. It used to be a half hour a day was devoted to cursive writing; now it’s down to 5 to 15 minutes a day, if at all. The goal is to teach students how to read it as well as how to sign their names. The extra time is being devoted to computers.

I would have been all for it in third grade as I struggled mightily with cursive writing, especially the capital Es and Qs and Zs, to say nothing of stringing together the lowercase

letters of a word to make it legible. It was as if I had a cinder block attached to my wrist. It wouldn’t flow across the page but jump, stop and start.

I’d look at the cursive charts that were pinned above the blackboards and knew what I wanted the letters to look like. Best friend Stephen Schloesser had perfect penmanship, and I couldn’t keep up with the smartest kid in the class.

In eighth grade, we had a long paper to write about a subject of our choosing. I wrote an essay that was a fictional, humorous account of grammar, which is where schools ought to be devoting that time left over from cursive lessons. I’ve seen the email.

Too many people are too nearly illiterate because of computers and texting.

It remains one of the pieces of writing that I am most proud of, but I lost points because my penmanship was atrocious. It was duly noted – by a very kind teacher – that I could have put more effort into my handwriting.

This was before typewriters. By then, we weren’t practicing cursive writing; we were applying what we learned and being judged on it. It was that important.

Today, my handwriting is a hybrid of cursive and block printing. I never could master the lowercase s, for instance. I switch gears to block print-

ing when I come to the s. Before writing this, I tried to write a sentence or two using the cursive writing that was drilled into me beginning in third grade. It took forever and it looked atrocious, as if I had a cinder block attached to my wrist. Ah, memories.

I have seen precious few people who are experts at cursive writing, with one letter flowing perfectly into the next as if they were meant to be mates for life. It’s a thing of beauty, and I am jealous. If only I could master cursive instead of the swill I put down on paper. When I write letters, I have to try to take the reader into account and slow down so what I write actually can be read on the other end.

The one I have the most practice at – signing my name – is the one I am worst at. It is a squiggle of up-anddown lines that could very well be my name when I insist on it. Mrs. Hickey wouldn’t accept it. I’d be marked wrong and be told to sign another receipt, only this time slow down and use what I’ve learned. I’ve tried. It’s not going to happen. I flunk.

WASHINGTON – Boys are slightly more likely to be born premature than girls, and they tend to fare worse, too, says a new report on the health of the world’s newborns.

“This is a double whammy for boys,” said Dr. Joy Lawn of the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, who led the team of researchers. “It’s a pattern that happens all over the world.”

The gender difference isn’t large: About 55 percent of preterm births in 2010 were male, the report found. Nor is

Middle-income countries are missing out on a lesson the U.S. learned the hard way several decades ago, that giving these tiny babies too much oxygen can trigger a potentially blinding condition called retinopathy of prematurity.

Overall, Lawn said about 7 percent of survivors have two of the most burdensome disabilities: neurologic-developmental impairment ranging from learning disabilities to cerebral palsy and vision loss.

But the biggest risk is to the youngest preemies, those born before 28 weeks gestation.

Worldwide, 52 percent of them are estimated to have some degree of neurodevelopmental impairment, the report found.

The finding comes from a series of international studies being published Friday that examine newborn health and prematurity. About 15 million babies worldwide are born too soon, most of them in Africa and parts of Asia where survival is difficult for fragile newborns. Globally, about 1 million babies die as a direct result of preterm birth and another million die of conditions for which prematurity is an added risk, the researchers calculated.

Rauner donates $500K to campaign for Ill. governor

By SARA BURNETT The Associated Press CHICAGO – Republican Bruce Rauner has made a $500,000 donation to his campaign for Illinois governor, lifting the caps on political contributions for everyone in the 2014 race and ensuring a big-money battle for the state’s top job.

The personal donation removes from the race a key piece of campaign finance reforms that lawmakers approved in the wake of the scandal involving now-imprisoned former Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

And if Rauner doesn’t win the four-way GOP primary, his move could end up providing an unintended fundraising advantage to Gov. Pat Quinn, who has no major challenger for the Democratic nomination.

Rauner campaign spokesman Mike Schrimpf said the donation was made Wednesday. It will help pay for tele-

vision ads that the wealthy businessman and political newcomer plans as he tries to increase his name recognition.

Rauner’s goal is to use his wealth – and his ability to raise money from others – to drown out his primary rivals and wage a full-throttled attack on Quinn. But his opponents and political observers note the contribution and the ads are also a sign Rauner needs to spend money that the others don’t feel they need to spend at this point in the campaign.

His fellow GOP candidates – state Sens. Bill Brady and Kirk Dillard and state Treasurer Dan Rutherford – all are better-known to voters because they’ve held public office for years.

“Clearly [the Rauner campaign] felt like they need to raise his visibility,” said Kent Redfield, professor emeritus of political science at the University of Illinois Springfield. “It’s necessary for him to do this.

Whether it’s going to work or

IDNR: ‘Fracking’ at least a year off in Ill. The ASSOCIATED PRESS SPRINGFIELD – Illinois regulators plan to publicly release proposed rules for hydraulic fracturing “very soon,” but it will be months before any permits are issued because the state must get the public’s feedback before rules can be finalized, according to environmental officials.

Marc Miller, director of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, told The Springfield State Journal-Register that new state regulations for the practice are nearly complete. DNR spokesman Chris McCloud told the Associated Press on Thursday in an email that the proposed regulations will be made public “very soon.”

Miller told the newspaper that no companies have registered to perform hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” since the state started signups last month, and it will be at least a year until fracking begins.

“I think the companies want to see how the rules are

going to come out,” Miller said.

Fracking uses high-pressure mixtures of water, sand or gravel and chemicals to crack underground rock formations and release oil and natural gas.

Regulations signed into law by the governor were hailed as among the toughest in the nation. The DNR must adopt rules to reflect the law.

The law requires companies to disclose chemicals to the DNR, test water before and after fracking and assume liability for contamination.

Opponents of the legislation – who unsuccessfully pushed for a two-year moratorium to allow more time to study the environmental and health impact of fracking – worry it will pollute and deplete water resources.

Miller said he expects about 700 permit applications would ultimately submitted each year in Illinois.

“We don’t have an indication of how big it might be until it starts to happen,” said Miller.

8STATE BRIEFS Lawsuit on same-sex marriage ban on hold CHICAGO – A lawsuit challenging Illinois’ ban on gay marriage is on hold until newly approved legislation allowing same-sex marriage takes effect next summer.

Twenty-five same-sex couples are suing after they were rejected for marriage licenses at county clerk offices. The lawsuit has been pending in the courts. But Illinois lawmakers approved legislation last week in Springfield that will allow same-sex couples to wed.

Gov. Pat Quinn said he’ll sign the bill into law next week. The law takes effect June 1.

Attorneys for the couples asked a Cook County judge Thursday to delay any movement on the lawsuit until then, when they plan to dismiss the lawsuit. The lawsuit will be moot once same-sex couples in Illinois are allowed to marry.

Judge Sophia Hall set a June 2 hearing on the case.

Quinn mentions mom at caregiving conference CHICAGO – Gov. Pat Quinn is highlighting the role that those who care for the elderly and sick play by giving a personal example: His mom.

Quinn’s 96-year-old mother, Eileen Quinn, has accompanied him to political events in the past. The governor told attendees of the Washington Post Live Caregiving in America Forum on Thursday that his mother’s caregiver is like part of the family.

The Chicago Democrat calls

both women a “dynamic duo.”

Quinn also used the appearance at the daylong Chicago conference to repeat his push for raising the minimum wage, saying caregivers shouldn’t live in poverty. He has said that raising it from $8.25 to $10 is a way to provide fair wages.

Opponents have called it a job killer.

Event sponsors include the Washington Post and the AARP.

Holder in Peoria to look at detention program PEORIA – Attorney General Eric Holder was in Peoria to take a look at a program designed to keep low-level drug offenders out of prison.

The Peoria Journal Star reports Holder said Wednesday he wanted to introduce the Pretrial Alternatives to Detention program to Congress.

Holder has said he wants to find ways to deal with low-level offenders without sending them to jail.

The PADI team consists of the prosecutor, a defense attorney, federal magistrate, probation officer and treatment counselor. During twice-monthly meetings they go over the defendant’s situation and find ways to improve it.

Holder met Kyle Wright, a PADI graduate, who was arrested in McLean County during a federal crackdown on cocaine trafficking. The 38-year-old Wright said the program has delivered him back to his family a better person.

Venture capitalist Bruce Rauner, a Republican gubernatorial candidate, speaks to supporters Aug. 15 at the Illinois State Fair in Springfield. On Wednesday, Rauner made a $500,000 donation to his own campaign, effectively lifting the caps on political contributions for everyone in the race. not, it’s hard to say.”

State campaign finance law limits how much money may be donated to campaigns: $5,300 for individuals

and $52,600 for political action committees. But it also states that if any candidate contributes more than $250,000 to his or her own race, the limits

come off for all candidates vying for the office.

Rauner’s latest donation brings his personal contributions to his campaign to

$749,000.

His spending drew criticism from his fellow Republican candidates, who have long anticipated he would break the caps and accused him of trying to buy the office.

All three candidates also have noted that Illinois voters have passed up wealthy candidates in the past in favor of those with more political experience.

“I will never have as much money as Bruce Rauner. None of the candidates will,” Dillard said. “But it’s votes that win elections.”

Rutherford also pointed to the potential assist Rauner could be giving Quinn, calling it a “gamble” on Rauner’s part that could end up hurting the eventual GOP nominee.

Under the law, the contribution limits will come off for all candidates from both parties until the March primary.

If Rauner wins the GOP nomination, the caps will remain off through the general election.

Crime boss Bulger gets life in prison

By DENISE LAVOIE The Associated Press

AP photo

A woman cries Thursday as she pleads with military to let her husband through to the front of the queue as they wait for evacuation by C-130 military aircraft in Tacloban, Philippines. Typhoon Haiyan, one of the strongest storms on record, slammed into six central Philippine islands leaving a wide swath of destruction.

Mass burial held after typhoon The ASSOCIATED PRESS TACLOBAN, Philippines – The air was thick with the stench of decay as sweating workers lowered the plastic coffins one by one into a grave the size of an Olympic swimming pool.

Scores of unidentified bodies were interred together Thursday in a hillside cemetery without any ritual – the first mass burial in this city shattered by last week’s Typhoon Haiyan.

Six days after the disaster, some progress was being made in providing food, water and medical aid to the half-million people displaced in the Philippines. Massive bottlenecks blocking the distribution of international assistance have begun to clear.

Soldiers on trucks gave out rice and water, and chainsaw-wielding teams cut debris from blocked roads to clear the

way for relief trucks in Tacloban, the capital of the hardest-hit Leyte province.

Thousands of people continued to swarm Tacloban’s damaged airport, desperate to leave or to get treatment at a makeshift medical center.

“We know the gravity of our countrymen’s suffering, and we know that, now more than ever, all of us are called on to do whatever we can to help alleviate our countrymen’s suffering,” President Benigno S. Aquino III said in a statement.

Authorities say 2,357 people have been confirmed dead, a figure that is expected to rise, perhaps significantly, when information is collected from other areas of the disaster zone.

With sweat rolling down their faces, John Cajipe, 31, and three teenage boys who work at the Tacloban cemetery placed the first body in

the grave’s right-hand corner.

The second body followed two minutes later, carefully placed alongside the first. And so on, until scores of coffins filled the 6-foot deep grave. A ritual to sprinkle holy water on the site is expected to be held Friday, one week after the typhoon struck.

A portion of the femur was removed from each corpse by the National Bureau of Investigation. Technicians will extract DNA from each bit of bone to try to identify the dead, said Joseph David, crime photographer for the bureau.

“I hope this is the last time I see something like this,” said Mayor Alfred Romualdez.

“When I look at this, it just reminds me of what has happened from the day the storm hit until today.”

The massive flow of international aid was bolstered by Thursday’s arrival of the USS George Washington in the

Philippine Sea near the Gulf of Leyte. The aircraft carrier will set up a position off the coast of Samar Island to assess the damage and provide medical and water supplies, the 7th Fleet said in a statement.

The carrier and its strike group together bring 21 helicopters to the area, which can help reach the most inaccessible parts of the disaster zone.

The United Kingdom also is sending an aircraft carrier, the HMS Illustrious, with seven helicopters and facilities to produce fresh water, Britain’s Ministry of Defense said.

It said the ship is expected to reach the area around Nov. 25.

The U.S. already has a half-dozen other ships – including a destroyer and two huge supply vessels – in the area, along with two P-3 aircraft that are being used to survey the damage so that planners can assess where aid is most needed, the 7th Fleet said.

BOSTON – Former Boston crime boss James “Whitey” Bulger was led off to prison Thursday to begin serving a life sentence at 84 for his murderous reign in the 1970s and ’80s, accepting his punishment in stone-faced silence even as a judge castigated him for his “almost unfathomable” depravity.

Bulger’s sentencing brought to a close a sordid case that exposed FBI complicity in his crimes and left a trail of devastated families whose loved ones – fathers, uncles, brothers and sisters – were killed by Bulger or his henchmen.

Many of the relatives had vented their anger at Bulger during the first day of his sentencing hearing on Wednesday, calling him a “terrorist,” a “punk” and “Satan.”

So when U.S. District Judge Denise Casper announced the punishment and Bulger was led from the courtroom, there were no shouts of joy or applause from the families, just silence.

Afterward, many said they took some comfort in

Ending tax breaks eyed as way to raise revenues, ease spending cuts

By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Democrats’ new mantra in budget talks is to close tax loopholes for certain businesses, investors and professionals as a way to raise more revenue to help ease autopilot spending cuts that will become more painful.

On their list: Deductions for corporations that pay executives in stock options instead of salaries, reduced tax rates for hedge fund managers and private equity advisers, avenues for escaping corporate taxes on foreign profits, and provisions that help doctors, lawyers, consultants and others who incorporate themselves avoid Medicare taxes.

Democratic budget negotiators in Congress see cutting these and other tax breaks as a politically popular way to raise revenues and ease spending cuts without further swelling the deficit. Republicans say

they are open to ending some special tax breaks, but they insist the new revenue be used to lower tax rates, not to increase spending.

The dispute played out this week as the negotiators tasked with merging budgets written

by House Republicans and Senate Democrats met for only the second time in public.

“You can’t raise taxes high enough to satisfy the appetite of Washington to spend money,” Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said. “Closing loopholes are very legitimate. The tax code is a mess, but closing tax loopholes to spend more is not going to have long-range good results because you get the higher level of expenditure.”

The disagreement could doom prospects for averting a second round of automatic spending cuts in January.

Those negotiators already have pretty much given up hope of reaching a longer-term budget accord for reducing

deficits years into the future.

Democrats are circulating a list of 12 tax breaks labeled “egregious loopholes that Republicans should either bring to the negotiating table or explain to the American people why they can’t find a single loophole to close to get a bipartisan deal.”

The list reads more like talking points than substantive proposals. The White House has endorsed some of the ideas, but absent better prospects for a new longer-term deal for reducing deficits, they’ve remained on the shelf.

Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., the Senate Budget Committee chairwoman, targeted two tax breaks in an op-ed she wrote that appeared in The Washington Post last weekend: deductions for corporations that pay executives in stock options and a break that allows American corporations to avoid U.S. taxes on the profits of foreign subsidiaries.

knowing that Bulger will spend the rest of his life behind bars. “[He] is finally going to prison. He’s going to die in prison,” said Tom Donahue, whose father was gunned down by Bulger after he happened to offer a ride home to a man who was Bulger’s actual target.

Bulger, the former boss of the Winter Hill Gang, Boston’s Irish mob, fled the city in 1994 after being tipped off by a former FBI agent that he was about to be indicted.

He was a fugitive for more than 16 years until he was captured in Santa Monica, Calif., in 2011.

His disappearance became a major embarrassment for the FBI when it was learned that corrupt Boston agents had taken bribes from Bulger and protected him for years while he worked as an FBI informant, feeding information on the rival New England Mafia.

A jury convicted Bulger in August in a broad racketeering case. He was found guilty in 11 of the 19 killings he was accused of, along with dozens of other gangland crimes, including shakedowns and money laundering.

Case remains an open missing person investigation Board next meets Tuesday • CASCIARO Continued from page A1 Casciaro graduated from Illinois State University and worked at the family business instead of going to law school.

In his closing argument, lead prosecutor Michael Combs, who also is chief of the State’s Attorney’s criminal division, said Casciaro took Carrick’s similar future away from him.

“It’d be really nice if Brian Carrick had the opportunity to go to college and make a career for himself,” Combs said. “But he didn’t because of this defendant.”

Carrick last was seen Dec. 20, 2002, at Val’s Foods where he worked with Casciaro and the man prosecutors said he used as a “blunt force instrument” in Carrick’s death.

On the stand, Shane Lamb testified that it was he who likely threw the fatal punch.

Casciaro sent him to “talk to” Carrick about a drug debt, Lamb said. But he lost

his temper and hit the teen who fell down. Prosecutors said Casciaro, under the law, was responsible for Lamb’s actions.

Outside the courthouse, Casciaro’s family blasted prosecutors, who they said went after the wrong man.

“Shane Lamb is the one that struck Brian and he got nothing,” Casciaro’s defense attorney Brian Telander said.

For his testimony, Lamb – a five-time convicted felon – received full immunity from murder charges and a reduced sentence on an unrelated drug offense. He picked up misdemeanor battery charges in November stemming from a bar fight in McHenry. For that, Prather sentenced him to probation.

McHenry County State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi defended the Lamb deal.

“It was a break in the case that we had to take advantage of,” Bianchi said.

“Sometimes you have to take whatever you can get to get a conviction.”

“Not only did we lose what Brian was and what he could have been, but his body was never recovered.”

Bill Carrick Father of Brian Carrick

Brian Carrick’s body never was found and the case remains an open missing person FBI investigation.

“Not only did we lose what Brian was and what he could have been, but his body was never recovered,” Bill Carrick said. “We don’t even have a body to commend back to God.” Casciaro’s father, Jerry, offered a $25,000 reward for anyone with information about the whereabouts of Carrick’s body.

Combs called the reward a “publicity stunt.”

“We know who is responsible for the disappearance of Brian Carrick and that’s

Mario Casciaro,” Combs said. “He’s not going to give $25,000 to anybody because nobody’s coming forward.”

Still, Casciaro maintained his innocence.

“I can’t take responsibility for something I didn’t do,” he said before a standing room only courtroom.

Speaking directly to Bill Carrick, he said: “I swear to you from the depths of my heart and soul that I had nothing to do with Brian’s disappearance.”

Thursday’s sentencing marked the beginning of a new legal battle for Casciaro.

He has retained high-profile civil rights attorney Kathleen Zellner for his appeal.

Telander was confident the appeal will be successful, which would put it back before Prather for a third time.

Casciaro first was tried for the murder in 2012, but it ended in a mistrial after jurors failed to reach a unanimous verdict.

“This is the thinnest murder case I’ve ever seen,” Telander said.

doesn’t have a vested interest in this district,” Secrest said after the board took its vote after a 10-minute closed session on the subject. “We will have a solution to this negotiation. At the end of the day, we need to all be together in this.”

With the offer rejected, the union and district will submit their impasse offers to the Illinois Educational Relations Board. The impasse offers, which are the last offers the union and board made to each other, should be available for public viewing next week.

The union voted to authorize a strike if necessary on Nov. 3 with 99.4 percent of the 440 members in favor, but Craig Kingston, vice president of the union, said no strike is imminent.

Kingston said the union was prepared for the board’s rejection, but it was upsetting a neutral party could not be brought in to settle differences.

“It seems like the board

would prefer to have the teachers in a position where we either have to accept some cuts or go on strike,” Kingston said. “We figured it was our responsibility to do all we could and exhaust all options to avoid that strike. That said, we’re still going to be meeting, talking and working.”

Regardless of the details of the final contract, it will have a significant effect on the district’s budget that has already been approved.

For every 1 percent potential increase in teachers’ salaries and benefits, the district must spend about $500,000, according to T. Ferrier, assistant superintendent of finance.

The board next meets on Tuesday at Crystal Lake Central High School where teachers are expected to have an informational picket. The meeting starts at 7:30 p.m.

Officials: Fewer than 27K enrollments were completed in 36 states in the first month • OBAMA Continued from page A1 Under pressure from consumers as well as congressional Democrats, Obama said the administration no longer would require insurance companies to jettison current individual and small group plans that fall short of the minimum coverage standards under the law, effectively shifting responsibility for cancellations to the industry itself. The change would be good for just one year, though senior administration officials said it could be extended if problems persist.

Speaking of the millions of people whose coverage is being scrapped, Obama said, “What we want to do is to be able to say to these folks, you

know what, the Affordable Care Act is not going to be the reason why insurers have to cancel your plan.”

Obama spoke at a news conference where he repeatedly took responsibility for the woeful rollout of the health care program known by his name. Officials disclosed on Wednesday that fewer than 27,000 enrollments were completed in 36 states in the first month of operations for www. healthcare.gov.

Including enrollment of more than 79,000 in the 14 states with their own websites, the nationwide number was 106,000 for October signups. But that is still far fewer than expected and a mere fraction of the cancellation notices that have gone out because of the law – more than 4.2 million, according to an

A few hours later, the head of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners added a fresh word of caution.

Louisiana Insurance Commissioner Jim Donelon, president of the group, said Obama’s proposal could lead to higher premiums and market disruptions next year and beyond.

“In addition, it is unclear how, as a practical matter, the changes proposed today by the president can be put into effect. In many states, cancellation notices have already gone out to policyholders and rates and plans have already been approved for 2014,” he added.

Nor was it clear how different states would react to the administration request to change the rules.

The president also sought to shelter from political fallout any congressional Democrats who echoed the promise he repeated often when the legislation was under consideration in Congress – that anyone who liked his or her coverage would be able to keep it. “They were entirely sincere about it,” he said of the lawmakers. “It’s not on them, it’s on us.”

Shortly after Obama spoke, the major industry trade group, America’s Health Insurance Plans, warned in a statement that prices might rise as a result of his new policy. “Changing the rules after health plans have already met the requirements of the law could destabilize the market and result in higher premiums for consumers,” it said.

Support typhoon victims Our hearts go out to those who are waiting for word about family and friends whose lives have been affected by the massive typhoon that struck the Philippines last week.

Although McHenry County is 8,000 miles from the Philippines, the disaster has touched people around the world, including here in our communities. The storm caused so much damage to communications systems For the record and homes that people are having This storm was one of the a difficult time biggest ever – larger and contacting family more powerful than Hurricane and friends.

Katrina in 2005 or Hurricane The scale Sandy in 2012. of the disaster is staggering.

The Associated Press reported that 600,000 people have been displaced – about as many as the entire city of Milwaukee. Many of them have lost their homes and lack reliable access to food and clean water. Doctors need medical supplies, and travel is difficult.

The official death toll is more than 2,300.

Most of those who died lived on the islands of Leyte and Samar.

This storm was one of the biggest ever – larger and more powerful than Hurricane Katrina in 2005 or Hurricane Sandy in 2012.

The U.S. is among the countries that have stepped up to help – U.S. Marine Brig. Gen. Paul Kennedy has said that the country’s entire Pacific Command will respond to the crisis, and warships already are in route to the country.

But we the people can help in other ways. A multitude of credible nonprofit organizations are accepting donations for the relief effort: • The U.S. State Department is cooperating with the Philippines Typhoon Disaster Relief Fund, established by the mGive Foundation.

Cellphone owners can make a tax-deductible $10 donation by texting “AID” to 80108.

• The International Committee of the Red Cross and the Philippine Red Cross both are accepting donations online through their websites.

• Humanitarian organizations including Oxfam, Caritas Manila, Catholic Charities, Doctors Without Borders and others also are accepting donations.

We support fundraising efforts and hope for the best for those affected by the typhoon.

Rudderless Illinois It’s official: The Legislature’s fall veto session was a bust, another big fat loser.

Legislators adjourned last week without voting on indisputably their highest priority, desperately needed public pension reform.

Illinois has the largest unfunded pension liability in America, the inability to confront it cripples the budget in such a way that little else in Springfield is possible, one party controls state government, and yet we still get another goose egg. At this point, after years of warnings and penalties and national ridicule, we don’t know what it will take to get the Legislature to act.

Perhaps the rarest of November tornados could hit the Capitol and send it flying to another state so we could start from scratch here.

Perhaps the credit rating agencies should just slap Illinois with junk bond status and be done with it.

House Speaker Michael Madigan said he’s hopeful the Legislature could pass “meaningful” pension reform yet this year, but we’ve heard it all before. That kicks the issue to next spring, but will our courageous elected officials dare make anyone unhappy in an election year? Now we’re into 2015, with the state income tax increase sun-setting. The Legislature gets overwhelmed when two among them talk at once.

Oh, legislators did manage to pass a samesex marriage bill, which Gov. Pat Quinn intends to sign into law yet this month, not that Illinois is a very attractive place to live or start a family or be a taxpayer whether you’re homosexual or heterosexual.

Legislators also continued to practice Illinois’ peculiar brand of economic development, throwing tens of millions of public dollars at private businesses, including ADM, to convince them to stay or lure them to the Land of Lincoln, which Quinn says he won’t even consider until he sees a pension reform bill on his desk.

With each passing session year after year after year, the conclusion gets ever more inescapable: Illinois is a rudderless, perhaps hopeless place.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Transplant support group To the Editor: Modern medical marvels have opened a whole new world of lifegiving transplants and donors that make these procedures possible.

Thousands of critically ill patients have not only been saved, but have returned to full health. McHenry is at the forefront of these breakthroughs with two organizations.

We have the annual Donna Frett Organ Donor Association, which annually raises thousands of dollars to benefit various programs and housing for those going through the transplant process.

Also, we are home to the Transplant Support Group of Northern Illinois, which serves McHenry and surrounding counties, including Wisconsin. This group meets the third Saturday of the month at 10 a.m. in a classroom at Centegra Hospital – McHenry.

The meetings are informal, and, at times, have a guest speaker.

The main object of this group is to lend support to transplant patients – pre or post – along with caregiv-

ers, family members, friends and anyone wishing to learn more about the subject or wishing to add to the group. At present, the group is composed of liver transplant, kidney transplant and lung transplant patients and their families.

Transplants are very nerve wracking and emotional times.

Patients will have been seriously to critically ill before a suitable donor organ is found. In some cases, the patient dies before that happens.

Therefore, any and all support is welcome and needed.

The group welcomes anyone with any interests to join them and contribute. You will find others who have gone through the same fears and stresses.

troubled by this discussion of “doing algebra” in elementary school.

Very young children are not abstract thinkers, and algebra is the gateway to more abstract applications of math. That’s why it’s appropriately placed in the middle and high school years, when students’ brains are actually able to conceptualize abstract concepts more effectively.

There is a difference between teaching children to their maximum capacity at every age and forcing unready children into advanced topics and calling it “rigor.” It’s like teaching a child to read before he is ready. Some

children are ready to read at age 4. Others are not until age 7. You can either spend two years trying to teach a child to read before he is ready, or three months doing the same when he is. The same is true in math, and the specific ages of readiness differ by the child.

Foundations exist because a house cannot be built without them. No one would work on a frame or roof before the foundation and call it “rigorous housebuilding.” Let’s hope this is not what is happening.

Joy Pullmann Education research fellow, Heartland Institute

Conservative media not key to governor’s mansion Illinois’ four Republican gubernatorial hopefuls cuddled up Nov. 2 with elements of the conservative entertainment complex that has done its best to help the party lose elections.

For Illinois’ sake, let’s hope that the results of governors’ elections three days later in New Jersey and Virginia gave them a moment of pause about firing up the base at the expense of winning the general election.

The Chris Christie approach will play in Peoria. Ken Cuccinelli will not.

For the uninitiated, the conservative entertainment complex (henceforth shortened to “CEC” for space’s sake), is the network of conservative cable news, blogs and talk radio that has essentially become the GOP’s de facto leader in the absence of a unifying figure.

Bruce Rauner, Kirk Dillard, Dan Rutherford and Bill Brady shared the stage with CEC stars such as blogger Michelle Malkin, Glenn Beck TV host Dana Loesch and local congressmanturned-talk-radio-host Joe Walsh at the first-ever Restore Illinois summit, hosted by Americans For Prosperity.

The GOP’s experiment to create an alternate media to counter liberal bias has instead created an alternate universe – a Repub-

VIEWS Kevin Craver lican Matrix minus Agent Smith and kung fu – with disastrous results. The biggest story of the 2012 election wasn’t that the Republicans lost, but the fact that they didn’t see it coming.

Pat Quinn, one of the nation’s most unpopular governors in the polls, is vulnerable. But to paraphrase John McCain’s senior 2008 campaign strategist, conservatism with a snarl – the product much of the CEC sells – will do in deep-blue Illinois what it has done elsewhere, namely repel the independent voters needed to win.

The CEC goes unchecked in pushing the concept that only the most ideologically pure conservatives can triumph, which has resulted in a long list of Looney-Tunes candidates winning primaries and going on to lose elections.

Christie, a compromise-minded governor who was excoriated by fellow Republicans for not putting party loyalty ahead of constituents who were cold, wet and hungry after a historic superstorm, won New Jersey handily. Cuccinelli, a tea party

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

darling and hard-core culture warrior, delivered yet another winnable seat for the GOP into Democratic hands.

The Virginia governor’s race was a “lesser of two evils” competition if there ever was one. Polls show that people held their noses to vote for former Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe. A Libertarian third-party candidate seemed to hurt both sides equally.

McAuliffe won because he wasn’t Cuccinelli. Even uberliberal blogger Markos Moulitsas acknowledged on Twitter after the vote that, “Republicans would’ve won VA-Gov without a tea party crazy. Probably easily.”

The GOP does have some positive takeaways from Virginia.

Cuccinelli almost pulled an upset despite being consistently behind in the polls and being outspent by almost double, likely because of a bump from the godawful mess of the Obamacare rollout and those policies we were supposed to be able to keep.

Likewise, Illinois’ GOP governor hopefuls need to take some lessons from Nov. 5 if they don’t want to embarrassingly lose to Quinn and fail to end a decade of disastrous one-party Democratic rule in Springfield.

The CEC’s bread and butter of

social issues and inflammatory statements is radioactive. Running on the Land of Lincoln’s impending fiscal Armageddon is plenty enough to win.

Taxpayers and businesses are fleeing Illinois in droves because they pay way too much in taxes to way too many governments that are way too large and deliver lousy services. They’re fleeing to beat the Day of Reckoning when the public employee pension systems – at least $100 billion underfunded and climbing – go bust.

They’re not fleeing Illinois because of gay marriage and abortion.

The goal of a Republican candidate is to win. The goal of the CEC is to make money, and they do that these days by saying outrageous things to get the listeners and the web hits.

Those two goals increasingly clash. Blue-state Republican candidates who want to cuddle up to the CEC would do well to remember that.

Man gets 32 years in murder Nielsen apologizes for 2012 stabbing death of man in Wonder Lake

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – An hour before the judge would sentence her son’s killer to 32 years, Nancy Fritch detailed the way her life has been

haunted since Feb. 6, 2012.

She’s lived through panic and fear and has been drained of sympathy for patients at the hospital where she works. She’s seen psychiatrists and therapists since Jeremy Lechner died. Her

efforts to avoid the pain include a suicide attempt.

Sometimes, she told the courtroom Thursday afternoon during the sentencing hearing for Richard G. Nielsen, she just wants one of those big, Jeremy hugs.

“Richard Nielsen stole that when he put a knife in my son’s heart,” Fritch said.

Nielsen’s 32-year sentence was handed down by Judge Michael Feetterer on

Richard G. Nielsen was sentenced to 32 years in prison for the death of Jeremy Lechner.

Police pension funds missing Nearly $400,000 misappropriated in Island Lake

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com ISLAND LAKE – The village of Island Lake does not have the nearly $400,000 needed to repay the police

pension after three years of misappropriation, its auditor said.

State law requires that the village treasurer set aside the money levied for the village’s police pension, but over the past three years, part or all of the levy was spent on village expenses, including skyrocketing legal fees and settlements, according to a presentation made to the Village Board

on Thursday evening.

The Village Board went into closed session following a three-and-a-half-hourlong meeting to discuss ways to recoup the money.

It does not have enough funds in the village’s main general fund to repay the missing money – or the interest the pension fund could have earned off that money, according to the auditor’s report.

The state law dealing with pension funds specifically points to the “village treasurer’s” responsibility, but village attorney David McArdle said the village does not have a treasurer.

The village president has been serving as the “treasurer pro temp,” which is not a recognized position, he said.

WOODSTOCK – A McHenry man who prosecutors said created a website devoted to his underage lover admitted Thursday to having sex with the girl.

Alan Swierk, 34, pleaded guilty to aggravated criminal sexual abuse and received a three-year prison sentence.

His plea agreement was ac-

cepted by McHenry County Judge Gordon Graham.

Swierk and the girl had sex between March and April, Assistant State’s Attorney David Metnick said.

The man was Alan Swierk c h a r g e d i n May after the girl’s family notified authorities.

On the website, Swierk allegedly documented intimate and trivial details of his relationship with the girl, who was 15 at the time.

He built the website “to express his love for [whom he called] the most amazing woman in the world, the minor victim,” Assistant State’s Attorney David Metnick said at a past court appearance.

There were pictures on the site of the two that Swierk al-

legedly captioned as “erotic” or “hawt,” Metnick has said.

But Swierk’s public defender has said that no pictures showed the two engaged in sexual acts.

As part of the plea agreement, two remaining sex charges were dropped.

After he finishes his prison sentence, Swierk will complete at least two years of parole and will register for life as a sex offender.

PRAIRIE GROVE – In an effort to cut salary costs, District 46 is expanding a retirement incentive program.

SYCAMORE: COURT HEARING

Black pleads guilty in fatal crash DUI accident killed 11-year-old Sycamore boy

By JILLIAN DUCHNOWSKI jduchnowski@shawmedia.com SYCAMORE – Tonda Ranken wants to get through her first Christmas without her 11-year-old son before she thinks too much about going to court again.

On Thursday, Ranken, her sister-in-law, her niece and her niece’s friend watched Benjamin Black, 29, admit to having heroin in his system during the Feb. 27 crash that killed Matthew Ranken.

Her oldest son, Nicholas Weber, was driving, and Weber’s girlfriend, Teale Noble, now 19, was severely injured as the front-seat passenger.

“I’m relieved that he is taking responsibility,” Tonda Ranken said Thursday. “... I’m still numb.”

Black, of the 1500 block of Sparkhayes Drive in Sycamore, was driving a Ford Expedition on Route 64 in Kane County about 7:30 p.m. Feb. 27 when he smashed into the back of a Chevrolet Cavalier carrying Matthew Ranken, Weber and Noble.

The Cavalier had been stopped for traffic backed up on Route 64 in western Kane County because of another crash more than a mile away.

Noble suffered a cracked skull, but during medical treatment, learned she was about two weeks pregnant.

She and Weber are expecting their son to be born soon, and plan to name him Jett Matthew, partially in honor of the uncle he never will meet, Tonda Ranken said.

“Nicholas at the beginning couldn’t understand

Rob Winner – rwinner@shawmedia.com

Benjamin Black of Sycamore is escorted out of Kane County Circuit Judge James Hallock’s courtroom Thursday in Geneva. Black is accused of having heroin in his system during a crash that killed 11-yearold Matthew Ranken of Sycamore and severely injured Teale Noble, now 19, of Sycamore.

“Nicholas at the beginning couldn’t understand why he lived and Matthew had to die. He thought it should have been him. Of course, I thought it should have been nobody.”

Tonda Ranken Mother of Matthew Ranken, who was killed in the crash, and Nicholas Weber, her oldest son

have been him. Of course, I thought it should have been nobody.”

But, after he learned of the pregnancy, he reasoned Matthew, the backseat passenger, had been protecting the baby, Tonda Ranken said.

“I think that just gave him some hope,” she said. “We all grieve so differently.”

The Rankens plan to pick out a memorial bench Saturday that will be installed at Sycamore Lake Rotary Park.

Matthew was a fifth-grader at North Elementary School in Sycamore who played football in the Sycamore Youth Football League and enjoyed fishing.

Tonda Ranken also is considering asking family members to buy Christmas ornaments that remind them of Matthew so they can decorate a small Christmas tree this holiday season in his honor.

“I just want to get through the holidays, and then we’re going to work on our victim impact statements,” Tonda Ranken said.

Family members will be able to read their victim impact statements during Black’s sentencing hearing March 20.

Kane County Circuit Judge James Hallock could sentence Black to between three and 14 years in prison for aggravated driving under the influence.

Probation would be an option only if Hallock found extraordinary circumstances existed.

Hallock will consider Black’s criminal history and his general background, and Black could make a statement on his own behalf.

Hallock also could hear how the Ranken and Noble families have been affected

by Black’s actions that night.

“How do you express?”

Tonda Ranken said. “There’s no words to express how much we miss [Matthew].”

Bullet prompts lockdown at Island Lake school ISLAND LAKE – Matthews Middle School was locked down for more than four hours Thursday after a student found a bullet in a school hallway.

The student turned the bullet in to a teacher, who notified administration, prompting the lockdown about 8 a.m.

Island Lake police conducted

a locker-by-locker search and a canine search, checked security footage and took other “necessary investigatory actions,” according to a notice posted on District 118’s website.

Teachers and students resumed their school day at 12:30 p.m.

An investigation is ongoing, the notice said.

Hearing included victim impact statements Village Board went • MURDER Continued from page B1 Thursday for the stabbing death of Lechner. Nielsen, 53, who was found guilty of first-degree murder in August, will get credit for time served since the incident.

On Feb. 6, 2012, Nielsen and Lechner were involved in an argument that turned deadly when Nielsen stabbed Lechner in the chest, piercing his heart.

The incident took place at 7607 Orchard Road, Wonder Lake, the home of Lechner’s girlfriend, Becky Meyers.

Nielsen rented a room at the residence but had been asked earlier in the day to move out.

Arguing for the minimum

“I don’t think 32 years is enough for the life that [Nielsen] took.”

Tamara Odarczenko Jeremy Lechner’s ex-girlfriend

sentence of 20 years, Defense Attorney Bill Bligh brought up the disputed nature of the altercation that preceded the stabbing. During the trial, prosecutors and the defense presented arguments about who was the instigator, and whether Nielsen was told he wouldn’t be allowed back in the house the night of the stabbing.

Bligh also pointed out that

Business manager: Payouts could cost district up to $270K • RETIREMENT Continued from page B1 $5,000 plus reimbursement of up to $2,000 a year for health insurance.

The retirement incentive used to be a part of the contract with the teachers union, but it was negotiated out of the last contract two years ago.

This year, teachers could opt for a flat payment of $15,000 but no insurance reimbursement.

“From the board’s perspective, it’s a cost savings,” Superintendent Lynette Zimmer said. “If a more experienced teacher is retiring and we don’t need to replace them or we can replace them with a younger teacher, it’s less expensive.”

The initial payouts could cost the district up to $270,000 if all seven of the teachers who qualify took the first option, or $200,927 if all seven took the second option, business manager Anna Kasprzyk said.

Because the payment occurs post-retirement and does

not affect a teacher’s salary, it does not inflate their pension payments.

That’s in contrast to the more common policy of increasing a teacher’s salary by six percent the three years before they retire, which some blame for exacerbating the pension crisis.

The District 46 board also approved a tentative levy totaling $10.7 million, an increase of 1.08 percent over last year.

The final vote will take place at the December board meeting.

This levy represents the final year in the Taxpayer Partnership Plan resolution passed in 2011.

Under the resolution, the board agreed to reduce the tax rate by 35 cents per $100 of equalized assessed property value.

The plan was put in place to reimburse taxpayers the difference between what they thought they approved in a 2002 tax-rate referendum and what the district actually ended up receiving in how the referendum was interpreted.

Nielsen’s criminal past involves drugs and alcohol – not violence – and brought up the economic impact of jail time considering his medical condition, which includes liver disease.

“Even at a 20-year minimum sentence, he will have medical expenses,” Bligh said.

Prosecutors asked for a sentence of 35 years.

Thursday’s hearing included victim impact statements from four people, including Fritch and Tamara Odarczenko – Lechner’s ex-girlfriend and the mother of their sixyear-old son.

“He will never get to see in person how much of a spitting image of his father he is,” Odarczenko said of her son,

reading her statement from the witness stand. “Or how much of his personality he holds.”

After the hearing, Odarczenko said she was happier with the result “than if it would have been 20 years.”

But, “I don’t think 32 years is enough for the life that he took,” she said.

Nielsen also gave an apology, standing and turning his attention to the portion of the gathering filled with Lechner’s friends and family.

He apologized to Fritch, to Lechner’s now-fatherless son, and to all the friends and family affected.

“There are no words that can express these feelings,” he said. “And so I say all that I can say. I am so sorry.”

The village also does not have a bond on its finance director as far as McArdle is aware, he said.

Finance Director John Little did not tell the past Village Board that the money was being diverted from the pension fund to pay bills, former Trustee Donna O’Malley said.

“The obligation by law was that money was supposed to be directed to the pension fund,” former Trustee John Ponio said.

The Village Board also went into closed session to discuss the appointment of a treasurer, but the board had not come out of closed session by the time the Northwest Herald went to press.

A letter also has been sent to the two county treasurers that oversee the village’s levies directing that future levies are directly deposited into the police pension fund.

CLS ready for back-to-back champs Benet has 5 players with at least 114 kills on the season

By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO AND MAUREEN LYNCH mmontemurro@shawmedia.com Crystal Lake South has waited 17 years to return to the volleyball state finals, and for the Gators to win the school’s first state title, they will have to take down one of the best programs in the state.

South coach Jorie Fontana is well aware of the success Benet has experienced the past couple of the years. The Redwings have won back-to-back Class 4A titles and face the Gators in Friday’s

State semifinals Friday at Redbird Arena in Normal Crystal Lake South vs. Benet Academy, 7:30 p.m.

Mother McAuley vs. New Trier, 9 p.m.

Note: Starting times are approximates state semifinals at 7:30 p.m. “[Benet] will be confident going into it, at least having done this before recently,” Fontana said. “My girls are going to need to prepare mentally for that and get beyond that. But we’ll be ready.”

Benet (35-5) boasts five players with at least 114 kills, led

by junior middle hitter Rachael Fara’s 235 kills. The 6-foot-3 Fara is one of five Redwings who stand at least 5-foot-11, presenting a potentially tough block for the Gators to work around at the net.

Overall depth and quality play at every position are the Redwings’ biggest assets. Defensively, the Gators (37-3) have the players to challenge Benet. Anchored by senior libero Hannah Wilson, who has recorded 235 digs this season, South doesn’t allow offenses many clean kills.

“They want to continue to win and be successful, it drives them and they know what it feels like Bill Ackerman – backerman@shawmedia.com to win a state title,” Benet coach Brad Baker said. “They want to Benet junior Rachael Fara goes up for a spike during the Redwings’ win over win it all.”

“I didn’t think I’d be where I am now,” Mejia said. “It feels great knowing that everything paid off in the end.”

Where Mejia is now is at starting fullback for an unbeaten team that is two wins away from playing for a state championship.

No. 2-seeded Harvard (11-0) plays No. 6 Rockford Lutheran (10-1) in a Class 4A playoff quarterfinal

Mejia is one of Harvard’s less-heralded players who has worked his way into a larger role this season for the winningest team in school history. Hornets coach Tim Haak runs down a list of Mejia, defensive backs Fernando Carrera and Michael MacKenzie, and linemen Anthony Milanko, Juan Carbajal and Kyle Peterson who fit that description.

Haak said his staff’s philosophy of development leads many of his players to success if they stick with the program for four years.

McCown nice guy, nice game LAKE FOREST – Josh McCown stepped off of a raised platform at Halas Hall, slung his work bag around his right shoulder and turned his head toward a room full of reporters.

“See ya, guys,” McCown said Thursday as he strolled out of the room.

What followed was stunned silence.

Did he just address us as humans? After he just gave a 17-minute news conference in which he offered polite, thoughtful answers?

What’s he after, anyway? What’s the catch?

Not to say Jay Cutler doesn’t mutter farewells to certain media members after his news conferences. They just happen to begin with an expletive and end with the word “idiot.”

But then it struck me.

Caleb Hanie was a realNext ly nice guy.

Jason Campbell never vs. Baltimore, turned down an interview request. noon, Sunday, Cut through the New CBS, AM-780, England accent, and Todd 105.9-FM Collins was practically a Midwestern everyman.

Clearly, no strong correlation exists between one’s personality and one’s ability to play quarterback. But in three appearances this season, McCown has provided every indication that he can avoid the long-standing backup quarterback tradition of Nice Guy, Ugly Game.

Because at 34 years old, McCown is playing the best football of his career.

Maybe.

Probably.

“I don’t know,” said McCown, missing his opportunity to pound his chest. “It would probably be better to step back after the season. But I feel like right now I’m just trying to play efficient football and just try to do what we’re asked to do.”

It wasn’t always that simple.

• • • On a cold December afternoon in 2002, McCown’s dream became a reality.

A harsh reality, but a reality nonetheless.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jake Plummer had thrown his third interception against the Kansas City Chiefs, who promptly scored their sixth touchdown to take a 42-0 lead.

McCown was a rookie for the Cardinals after a college career at Southern Methodist and Sam Houston State, and he finally got the call to make his NFL debut late in the third quarter.

Six plays later, Chiefs cornerback Ray Crockett (uncle of Bears defensive tackle Henry Melton) intercepted McCown to spoil his first series. McCown finished his debut with a horrific 10.8 passer rating, and the Cardinals returned to the desert on the heels of a 49-0 loss.

BEARS NOTES

Ravens’ ‘D’ still one of the toughest

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@shawmedia.com LAKE FOREST – As swimmingly as things have gone for the Bears’ offense this season, it will get a fierce test from the Ravens on Sunday.

Ed Reed and Ray Lewis are gone, but Haloti Ngata, Terrell Suggs, Daryl Smith and Elvis Dumervil lead the league’s eighth-best scoring defense.

“I call it hereditary, but it’s like you can see the marks of Ed Reed and Ray Lewis and the pros that they’ve had there before on this defense,” Bears quarterback Josh McCown said Thursday. “You can see that, the way they play, the

knowledge of their assignment, the speed and intensity of the way they play, so it’s a good defense. We’ll have our hands full.”

The Bears have had no problem moving the ball with McCown under center, but the offense is coming off its second-lowest output of the season after scoring 19 points against Detroit.

Part of the issue against the Lions was the inability to run the football with Matt Forte because of some missed assignments in run blocking.

“We went back to specific – not that we don’t always – but we emphasized in the installation of the runs, we em-

phasized the technique more of each run and each front that we’re going to see with the entire offense in there, so the running backs could hear it, the quarterbacks, the receivers,” offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer said.

Baltimore Terrell Suggs is allowing 3.7 yards a carry, with Ngata and Smith plugging the middle for opposing rushers.

“Their tradition is to have big, strong, powerful men inside, and so it’s tough to run in there,” Kromer said. “But

there are certain plays that you can take advantage of what you have on offense, and we’ll try to get those called.”

The Ravens are only 15th in the league in total defense, but are tied for fourth in thirddown defense (32.4 percent) and second in the red zone, allowing only eight touchdowns on 24 possessions. Dumervil and Suggs lead a group that is third in the league with 32 sacks.

“Like we say every Thursday when we talk sacks, sacks are a product of people being covered and holding the ball too long,” Kromer said. “So we’re going to try to get the ball out quick and do a good

8BEARS INSIDER / BY HUB ARKUSH

Offensive line is better, but Bears still have needs there It’s a given around the NFL by scouts, analysts, “insiders” and fans that one of the biggest factors in the improvement of the Bears’ offense this year has been the offensive line.

It’s not a debatable point.

But, as the Bears begin their stretch run toward what they hope will be a spot in the playoffs, and as we think about next year, it’s important to know if this offensive line is good enough.

Josh McCown said he believes the unit has made significant strides and he assigns a lot of the credit to coaching and team-building.

“Aaron Kromer and Pat Meyer do an outstanding job and they’re really gifted teachers. I think they’ve (linemen) done a great job of getting to know each other.

It’s a strong bond in that group and I think that matters, too. I think that’s shown up in the way they play and the way they approach their job.”

Marc Trestman is pleased with how far they have come, but acknowledges there still is work to do.

“I think we’ve been reasonably consistent in the pass protection game,” Trestman said. “We continue to improve, but we are still making mistakes. The young guys miss every once in a while in terms of which way to step and things like that.”

Referring to the meltdown of the running game and the two sacks and 11 hits Jay Cutler absorbed last week, Trestman warned not to make too much of the hiccup against the Lions.

“You know, last week

their QB clean. That is a huge upgrade in pass protection with minimal slippage in the run blocking.

Some of that’s improved talent and some of it’s scheme. Eben Britton has been in on 106, or 18 percent, of the Bears’ 598 snaps on offense.

“Part of that came with The only remaining starter Martellus’ shoulders (infrom the Bears’ 2012 Week 11 juries) early in the year,” starting lineup on the offensive Trestman said. “That’s line will be Roberto Garza at cen- really when we made the ter.

‘D’-line going backward 1

While the improved play of the Bears’ offensive line has been a huge part of the offense’s 2013 success, there is a startling similarity in the decline of the effectiveness of the defensive line’s play.

Through nine games in 2012, the Bears had allowed 26 sacks for 179 yards in losses, but they’d sacked the opponents’ quarterbacks 26 times for 182 yards in losses. This year, they’ve allowed only 14 sacks for 94 yards, but they’ve sacked opponents’ quarterbacks only 14 times for 91 yards in losses.

As a result, while the offense has made significant gains, the defense has come apart.

Individually, there are no stars in this group yet.

Not much changed during McCown’s four-year tenure with the Cardinals. By the time he joined the Lions in ’06, he had thrown more interceptions (29) than touchdowns (25).

At some point along the way, McCown realized that his career arc had changed trajectory.

He spoke with his brother, Luke, who was the Browns’ fourth-round pick two years after the Cardinals made Josh their third-round pick. Luke started four games as a rookie before settling into a backup role, which continues to this day with the Saints.

“My little brother and I talked about this: If there’s an obvious point in your career where you get like, ‘OK, nobody’s going to beat down my door to be a starter,’ ” McCown said. “So you understand. You don’t get content, but at the same time, you understand your role on your team.

“Again, it goes back to [the question]: As a backup, how can I add value to my team?”

Simple.

Be ready. Be smart.

It also helps to be friendly.

• • • So here stands McCown, behind a lectern, answering questions about his second start of the season and his fourth start in the past five years.

McCown and his teammates will face the Ravens (4-5), who have struggled this season but remain tough on defense. The Bears won McCown’s previous start against the Packers and badly need a win to bolster their playoff chances.

McCown is confident he can do the job.

“You feel like there’s an opportunity to be successful every game, and you don’t have to step outside the system and press every time,” McCown said. “If you drop back and it’s not there, you can check the ball down, you can throw the ball away, and you know from a play-calling standpoint and the structure of our system that we’ll have another shot, we’ll have another play. …

“So, for me, that’s created a lot of ease and allowed me to play more consistent because I don’t press and try to get outside of the system and get outside of myself.”

The result – at least, up until this long-winded jinx – has been impressive.

McCown has thrown 70 passes without an interception this season, which is the fourth-best mark in the NFL. Philadelphia’s Nick Foles (136) owns the longest streak and is followed by Houston’s Case Keenum (102) and the aforementioned Campbell (75), now with Cleveland.

And next is McCown, who still feels as if he has room to improve.

“Absolutely,” McCown said.

“I think the fastest way downhill is to think that you know it.

“The first day that you go, ‘Ah, I got it now,’ that’s the last day.”

Soon after, McCown picked up his work bag and headed toward the meeting rooms.

See ya.

BLACKHAWKS 5, COYOTES 4 (SO)

Pirri, Crawford seal shootout win for Hawks Patrick Sharp then made it 2-0 just 16 seconds into a power play at 6:22, executing a quick little give-and-take with Jonathan Toews, and one-timing a shot from the blue line through an Andrew Shaw screen and past Smith.

Given how productive the Hawks offense had been during this 6-0-1 stretch, it figured to be an easy night from there. But it never is against Phoenix.

Sixty seconds after Sharp’s goal, Coyotes defenseman Michael Stone scored the first of two goals on the night, his shot from the point accidentally deflected into his own net by Pirri. Shane Doan tied it at 13:50 of the first, lifting a Keith Yandle rebound over Corey Crawford.

Phoenix’s winning streak at United Center ends at 6

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com CHICAGO – The Phoenix Coyotes entered Thursday’s game against the Blackhawks having won six straight games at the United Center, and were 8-1-1 in their past 10 here, including their first-round series victory over the Hawks in 2012.

This fact was not lost on Patrick Kane, who recited that fact off the top of his head after the morning skate. Nor was it lost on Hawks coach Joel Quenneville.

Next “We mentioned it the last time in here at Nashville, and we didn’t recti7 p.m. Saturday, fy it,” Quenneville CSN, AM-720 said. “They’ve been close games and the endings have been very familiar. I think that we want to kill it tonight in the worst way.”

That was evident in the Hawks’ ruthless bombardment of Coyotes goalie Mike Smith, who faced 52 shots in 65 minutes, but singlehandedly carried the game into a shootout, where Brandon Pirri scored in the fourth round, and Mike Ribeiro hit

It was the second straight game the Hawks played a team with a perplexing hold on them – and their second straight typically challenging evening – after Sunday’s harrowing

5-4 win over the Edmonton Oilers.

It was nice redemption for Pirri, who also had the game-tying goal in the third period after inadvertently deflecting Phoenix’s first goal into his own net.

The Hawks appeared poised to eas-

BULLS

Rose says he’s fine, but might sit Status will be clear after shootaround

By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com Derrick Rose admittedly lives his life in a bubble.

As lines of critics were forming while he took off all of last season to rehab his surgically repaired left knee, Rose barely heard their complaints.

When Bulls officials spent the second half of last seaNext son hinting Rose’s return at Toronto, was doubtful, 6 p.m. Friday, WCIU, AM-1000 he kept hope alive, even throughout the playoffs.

Little changed Thursday.

If it were up to Rose, the tweaked right hamstring he suffered Monday against the Cavaliers would be an afterthought and he would be starting Friday against the Raptors. The Bulls’ decision-makers, however, sounded more inclined to play it safe and protect Rose from himself.

“If I could go right now, if the game was today, I’d be playing,” Rose said after being held out of practice for a second straight day. ‘‘Like I said, I’m not worried about that. It’s taking my time, not pushing myself and not ex-

Bulls point guard Derrick Rose looks to pass the ball past Cleveland Cavaliers center Andrew Bynum during the first half of Monday night’s game at the United Center. tending myself. ‘‘It’s not a concern at all. I think everything I do – if I get hurt, it can be anything – it’s going to be blown out of proportion. I’m doing fine, and it shouldn’t be anything to worry about.”

But playing an entire season without Rose has put the Bulls in better-safe-than-sorry mode. That’s why coach Tom Thibodeau sounded as though Rose might be a spectator against the Raptors, especially with a game Satur-

day against Pacers.

“He said he feels better,” Thibodeau said. “But he just wants to make sure. You have to be careful with that.

We want to make sure he’s healthy enough to play. It’s whenever he’s ready to play, then he’ll play. We’re not going to jump ahead and speculate. He’s just getting treatment. Work, see what you can do. If you feel healthy enough to go, you go. If you don’t, you get time off.”

The Bulls will have a morning shootaround in Toronto, and Rose’s status will be clear by the time it’s over.

“You just want to make sure he’s completely healthy,” Thibodeau said. “He [was] off for 18 months. That’s a long time to be off.”

What Thibodeau and Rose agreed on was that setbacks were expected. There was a sore knee in training camp, a sore neck in the first week of the season and now the hamstring.

“Yeah, I heard it the whole time I was out from players, from experts that played the game, other players that played other sports,” Rose said. “You’re going to get other, nagging injuries. As long as I get them early [in the season rather] than late, I’m cool with it.”

So while Rose sounded willing and able to go, the Bulls will do all they can to have the final say. Plus, the game Saturday against the Pacers can’t be ignored.

“We’ve got back-to-back?”

Rose asked when it was brought up as a factor in the decision. “I didn’t know that.”

BULLS NOTES

Rose impressed with Parker’s game

By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Derrick Rose didn’t attend the Champions Classic doubleheader Tuesday at the United Center to witness Duke freshman Jabari Parker’s coming-out party.

But he wasn’t surprised Parker – who, like Rose, attended Simeon – played well in front of the home crowd and a national-TV audience.

“Great man,” Rose said of Parker’s 27-point, nine-rebound effort against Kansas.

“Jabari, it’s crazy seeing how

far he’s come in his career and who he’s becoming. Seeing him in sixth or seventh grade, a little chubby kid, and now he’s a young man and his future is looking bright. I’m happy for him.”

R o s e , who said he watched both Jabari Parker games on TV, showed his Simeon roots when asked if Parker stood out above Kentucky freshman Julius Randle and Kansas freshman Andrew Wiggins.

“Oh, man, I think all of them are great, but I think Jabari stuck out,” Rose said.

“I’m not saying that Wiggins isn’t ready or Randle isn’t ready. You just saw Jabari have that NBA-type game, and he was really out there trying to prove something.”

But Rose wasn’t quite ready to make Parker the No. 1 pick in the 2014 draft.

He warned the NBA game is much different and said Parker needs the rest of the season to grow as a player before that assessment can be made.

Business as usual: Whether

guard Kirk Hinrich starts in place of Rose (hamstring) on Friday against the Raptors, he said coming off the bench and working with the starters is all the same for him.

“I think it’s just the minutes and just being ready from the jump,” Hinrich said. “Playing a lot more with the firstunit guys, as opposed to Mike (Dunleavy Jr.) or Taj (Gibson), maybe. But the approach is really the same as far as just getting the scouting report and being ready to run the team. In that way, it’s a lot of the same.”

The Hawks acquired forwards Kris Versteeg and Philippe Lefebvre from the Florida Panthers for forward Jimmy Hayes and defenseman Dylan Olsen on Thursday night.

The trade was announced after the win over Phoenix.

The 27-year-old Versteeg, a member of the Hawks’ 2010 Stanley Cup championship team, has two goals and five assists in 18 games this season with Florida.

Versteeg had 20 goals and 24 assists in 79 regular-season games with the Hawks in 2009-10, then added six goals and eight assists in 22 playoff games during the team’s run to the Stanley Cup. He had a career-high 22 goals and 53 points with the Hawks in 2008-09.

Fontana says Nolan will be ready for challenge • GATORS Continued from page C1 Baker said his team will have to defend “extremely well” against a good offensive team in South with a focus on slowing down the Gators’ big hitters.

“We’ve gone through about 15 different lineups and we finally settled on one in the postseason that’s worked well,” Baker said. “We’ve had so many different kids step up at various times. We feel pretty good about everyone right now.”

The Gators have plenty of firepower of their own, paced by junior outside hitter Carly Nolan and her 367 kills – the most by any player in the Class 4A state finals.

Flanked by senior outside hitter Avalon Nero (239 kills), senior middle blocker Nicole Slimko (231 kills) and senior middle blocker Sara Mickow (94 kills), Nolan will have plenty of support.

Fontana said Nolan will be ready for the challenge of Benet trying to shut her down, like most teams have attempted to do this season.

“She’s been the person people focus on for obvious reasons and she’s always handled it well,” Fontana said. “You don’t see her breakdown from it and she will talk to the other girls and start pushing other people because getting them fired up only helps her.

FIVE-DAY PLANNER

Replay moves forward

By RONALD BLUM

How instant replay will work in 2014

The Associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. – Another baseball tradition is about to largely disappear: a manager, with a crazed look in his eyes, charging the field and getting into a face-toface shouting match with an umpire.

Instead, most calls on the field next season will be subject to video review by umpires in New York, Major League Baseball took the first vote in a twostep process Thursday, unanimously approving funding for expanded instant replay in 2014.

They plan to approve the new rules Bud Selig when they meet Jan. 16 in Paradise Valley, Ariz., after agreements with the unions for umpires and players.

“We made a gigantic move today,” commissioner Bud Selig said.

“This is quite historic.”

Selig long opposed replay and watched from afar as it was first used by the NFL in 1986, the NHL in 1991, the NBA in 2002 and Wimbledon in 2006. Even the Little League World Series put replay in place for 2008.

MLB allowed it starting August 2008 but in a limited manner: to determine whether potential home runs were fair or cleared fences.

Now, virtually every decision likely will be subject to review, except balls and strikes, checked swings and some foul tips.

“Tag plays, out/safe at first, fair/foul past the bags, those are all going to be included,” said Rob Manfred, MLB’s chief operating officer.

“We want to get more plays right, the ones that matter,” Manfred said.

Manfred said when a manager wants to challenge a call, he will notify an umpire, triggering a review in New York by what likely are to be present or retired big league umps. A headset would be brought to the crew chief, who would be notified of the decision.

There will be a maximum of two challenges per manager in each game – “it could be less,” Manfred said – and if the challenge is upheld, it would not be counted against the manager’s limit. If a manager is out of challenges, umpires probably will be allowed request a review on their own.

“Getting more plays right can only enhance the game,” St. Louis Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said.

Manfred appeared to indicate that the video being reviewed in New York could be shown to fans in stadiums or possibly on TV broadcasts.

“I think you can expect that there will be as part of this package expanded use of in-stadium video boards,” he said.

Selig has emphasized that he doesn’t want replay to slow games, whose increased length in recent decades has been targeted for criticism.

“The current thinking is that if a manager comes out and argues, once he argues, he can’t challenge that play,” Manfred said. “One way to control the timing of challenges is to use the natural flow of the game, that is the next pitch cuts off your right to challenge.”

But MLB doesn’t want managers to tell players to stall to give team employees time to review video on their own and instruct the dugout whether to use a challenge.

In tests last week at the Arizona Fall League, most reviews averaged 1 minute, 40 seconds.

Former manager Tony La Russa, now an MLB special adviser, said managers will have to “rely on their integrity” and not cause delays.

“This is an historic opportunity,” he said. “We’re going to monitor it. If somebody plays around with it, they’re going to get called on the carpet.”

Manfred said the initial rules likely won’t be the final ones.

“The system will see some continuing evolution until we get to a point of stability, similar to what you saw in the NFL,” he said.

NO. 20 NORTHERN ILLINOIS

Brown finds redemption WR bounces back from 4th-quarter fumble by scoring game-winning TD

By STEVE NITZ snitz@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Jordan Lynch went up to Da’Ron Brown and told the junior receiver he was going to find him again.

Brown had just fumbled away a crucial opportunity in the red zone in the fourth quarter of NIU’s all-important game against Ball State on Wednesday night at Huskie Stadium, and it was a play that, at the time, looked like it could have led to a Cardinals victory.

Brown’s fumble, which was forced

by Cardinals defensive back Eric Patterson at the Ball State 12-yard line, came after Brown caught a pass on a long post route that went for 54 yards.

“I need to have better Next ball security,” Brown at Toledo, 7 p.m. said. “If I would have had better ball security, Wednesday, ESPN2, AM-670 it wouldn’t have happened. That’s on me.”

However, it wasn’t the last opportunity Brown would have Wednesday night.

On the Huskies’ next possession, he grabbed the game-winning touchdown on a 36-yard pass from Lynch that put NIU up by seven. The 20th-ranked Huskies went on to win, 48-27, staying alive in the race for the Mid-American Conference title and a possible BCS bowl game.

“Stuff happens right? People fumble,” Lynch said. “I told him, I went right back up to him and I was just being honest, I was telling him, ‘I’m going back to you.’ “ Brown had his first career 100-yard receiving game, and then some. He finished with eight catches for 209 yards, the seventh-most by any receiver in NIU history, and caught two touchdowns – the other being a 58-yard grab from Lynch on a bubble screen late in the second quarter.

After his fumble, NIU’s only turnover of the game, Brown was able to redeem himself less than 10 minutes later.

“It felt good to come back, make a big play,” Brown said. “The whole time (after the fumble) my teammates were telling me, ‘Keep your head up.’ Jordan was telling me he’s going to come back to me, that showed me that he had confidence in me and I couldn’t let the team down, so I had to step up and make another play.”

NO. 2 FLORIDA STATE AT SYRACUSE, 2:30 P.M. SATURDAY

Prosecutors handed QB’s case Tuesday

By GARY FINEOUT and KAREEM COPELAND The Associated Press TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – An assistant state attorney said prosecutors in Tallahassee did not receive information about an 11-month-old sexual assault allegation involving Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston until Tuesday.

Tallahassee police investigated the Heisman Trophy contender in connection with a sexual assault that was reported nearly a year ago in an off-campus apartment. FSU records show the first report was made to campus police Dec. 7 by a student at a dormitory.

The investigation was handed over to Tallahassee police.

The case was not given to prosecutors until this week.

Assistant State Attorney Georgia Cappleman said normal procedure for criminal cases in Leon County calls for police to give information to prosecutors if there is evi-

Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston is under investigation in an alleged sexual assault reported nearly a nearly a year ago, the university and Winston’s attorney confirmed Wednesday. dence for an arrest, or if it is a “close call.” She said police do not tell prosecutors when they have decided against pursuing an arrest.

A day after news of the case broke, jolting college football fans and casting uncertainty on second-ranked Florida State’s perfect season, there

were mostly questions left unanswered.

Tallahassee police, citing the ongoing investigation, aren’t saying much about the case as well, including why investigators waited until this week to hand over information about the case to local prosecutors.

The Seminoles went back to

work Thursday, preparing for a home game against Syracuse on Saturday.

Coach Jimbo Fisher was scheduled to meet with the media after practice Thursday evening.

For his part, Winston is only talking football. He spoke to the media for roughly five minutes on Wednesday night.

University officials warned they would cut off the press conference if anyone asked questions that weren’t strictly related to football.

Timothy Jansen, the attorney representing Winston, has said his client did nothing wrong and he thought the investigation was over months ago. He said he has already handed over to prosecutors affidavits from two eyewitnesses.

“When I spoke to the detective in February he told me the case was closed,” Jansen said.

“I relayed that to my client and to university officials. I hadn’t heard another word until Monday.”

When Northwestern linebacker Collin Ellis and his teammates take the field against Michigan on Saturday, the Wildcats will trade their familiar purple for a set of patriotic uniforms like no other – stars and stripes across the shoulders and a distressed pattern that to some looks like blood stains on a flag.

They simply are the latest push by companies that supply athletic equipment to schools to honor the military, and the players love it – especially when they help raise money for soldiers injured in the line of duty.

“I’m proud we get to wear them,” Ellis said. “It’s just reassuring that we’re [supporting] a good cause, so much bigger than just the game.

It’s about the project, and it’s about supporting the troops that go out there and fight for our freedom.”

The jerseys, designed by Under Armour, will be auctioned after the game, and the school said all proceeds will go to the Wounded Warrior Project.

The uniforms have evoked enough criticism to elicit a clarification from the school.

Northwestern spokesman Paul Kennedy said the design “was inspired by the appearance of a flag that has flown proudly over a long period of time” and apologized “for any misinterpretation.”

Wildcats coach Pat Fitzgerald said he, too, is honored and doesn’t understand the criticism.

“I’d looked at the design that a couple of other teams wore last year,” Fitzgerald said. “I didn’t see anything wrong with them at that time, so I’m not quite sure why there’s been such the negativity about it, especially when there was none last year.”

College football is well into the patriotic era first evoked by the camouflage uniforms that debuted in the Army-Navy game five years ago.

Not every fan is enthralled.

“I’m as patriotic as anyone, but to me all this excessive flag waving, ‘Thank you for your service,’ and stuff like that is just over the top,” said Norm Linden, a Vietnam veteran and 1969 graduate of Norwich University, the oldest private military college in the country.

“Does every sporting event these days have to become a mini-Nuremburg rally? Honor the vets by giving them a discounted ticket or a free replica game jersey or something like that, but please stop dressing like clowns out there.”

According to Charity Navigator, a nonprofit watchdog, 36.9 percent of the money collected for the Wounded Warrior Project is earmarked for

“I’m as patriotic as anyone, but to me all this excessive lag waving, ‘Thank you for your service,’ and stuff like that is just over the top. Does every sporting event these days have to become a mini-Nuremburg rally? Honor the vets by giving them a discounted ticket or a free replica game jersey or something like that, but please stop dressing like clowns out there.”

fundraising. Still, the charity received a three-star rating because that actually is a good ratio.

Retired Army veteran Jose Lachapel figures all this flag waving is about the bottom line, not the front line.

“Both private and public entities have jumped on the support-our-troops bandwagon. Colleges and sports teams that go overboard with the salute to the troops are doing it for economic reasons – sponsors, TV, etc.,” said Lachapel, who retired from the Army Corps of Engineers after 23 years, including a one-year tour in the Middle East, and now serves as a project manager for the Social Security Administration. “Donate tickets to lower enlisted, donate to armed services charities like USO and official services charities, but the rest are started and are still in it for the money and continue to ride the tidal wave of military patriotism nationwide.”

Uniforms represent something special to those who serve, which is why Mark Cunningham isn’t too fond of the military surge on the gridiron.

“As a former Marine, I think all this over-the-top stuff is superficial and, in many regards, an insult to the troops,” said the 48-yearold Cunningham, a former combat engineer who served in Operation Desert Storm.

“Wearing camouflage football uniforms and sticking flags everywhere does not mean that you understand what any Marine, sailor, airman or soldier has experienced in war or in garrison during peacetime.

“In fact, I would even argue that it takes away from the intended purpose because you did not earn the right to wear the uniform. Uniforms have a deeper meaning to those who served than just an article of clothing.”

CLEMSON, S.C. – Tajh Boyd passed for 340 yards and four touchdowns to break Philip Rivers’ Atlantic Coast Conference career record in No. 8 Clemson’s 55-31 victory over Georgia Tech on Thursday night.

Boyd has 97 touchdown passes, two more than Rivers – now with the San Diego Chargers – had at N.C. State from 2000-03.

Boyd left the game and headed to the locker room in the third quarter after hurting his collarbone.

“The Best Man Holiday” STARRING: Monica Calhoun, Morris Chestnut, Melissa De Sousa and Taye Diggs PLOT: When college friends reunite after 15 years over the Christmas holidays, they will discover just how easy it is for long-forgotten rivalries and romances to be ignited.

RATED: R for language, sexual content and brief nudity RUNNING TIME: 2 hours, 2 minutes VERDICT: It seems quite apt that “The Best Man Holiday,” a film about a reunion of old friends, feels just like going to an actual reunion. In ways both bad and good. A reunion, you see, is only fun if you went to the school and recognize your friends. It’s certainly not fun if you didn’t, but were dragged along anyway.

In that case, you’ll likely end up drinking white wine in a paper cup alone by a wall, watching everyone else get silly. Likewise, “The Best Man Holiday,” Malcom D. Lee’s sequel to his (much better) 1999 “The Best Man,” will probably be fun and pleasant for those who saw the first film.

Those who didn’t may feel like they’ve been dragged to someone else’s reunion. And that’s too bad, because the cast, reunited here, is largely excellent, led by the ever-charismatic Taye Diggs as Harper, an author with a fatal flaw: he can’t seem to stop writing about his friends and lovers. It’s not the fault of the cast that these characters seem less fully formed the second time around. It’s the fault of a script (also by Lee) that takes shortcuts, goes for sentimental overload, gets a little too swept up in holiday trappings, and telegraphs plot developments in often groan-worthy ways. (A character inadvertently leaves an iPad containing secret material sitting on a counter. Do we really then need an ominous close-up of that iPad lying there? Give us a little credit!) Those who saw the charming and refreshing “The Best Man” will remember the plot centered on a wedding. This time, it’s Christmas that brings everyone together. If you like Christmas soundtracks, you’re in luck: there are at least 15 Christmas songs here. If you don’t like your Christmas music so early in the season, that’s another matter. The setting is the suburban mansion of Lance and Mia, who married in the first movie. Lance (Morris Chestnut) is a star with the New York Giants playing his last season and chasing an NFL record for rushing, with time running out. Mia (Monica Calhoun) is still sweet and thoughtful and decides to hold a Christmas reunion. That includes Harper (Diggs) and Robyn (the lovely Sanaa Lathan), married and expecting their first child. Harper’s first book, a novel that caused all sorts of trouble in the first film, was a huge success, but as this movie begins, he’s under financial pressure. His agent suggests a winner: An autobiography with his friend the big football star.

Cue more trouble. Then there’s Jordan (an appealing Nia Long), the single and ambitious TV producer who carried a torch for Harper. She’s now dating a white man, Brian (Eddie Cibrian), a relationship that her friends comment on, but is not explored much in the movie. Julian (Harold Perrinau), who had freed himself from the vampy and manipulative Shelby (Melissa de Sousa) by the end of the first film, is now married to the sweet-hearted former stripper Candace (Regina Hall).

And happily, Terrence Howard is back to reprise his role of the rascally but somehow wise Quentin.

And the hijinks begin. Said hijinks include an amusing boy-band number performed on the fly by the guys (We hate to be Scrooge here, but really, this number was clearly choreographed professionally and rehearsed for many hours), and some arguments that develop into fistfights (Why do so many romantic comedies have to include women attacking each other physically, over a man?). There are, of course, old scores to settle. There’s also a tragic twist that becomes a major plot point. You will very likely cry at certain moments. But again, it’s like a reunion. If you already know these characters, you’re good. If you don’t, you’ll be standing against that wall, alone, with that wine in a paper cup. – The Associated

“Captain Phillips” STARRING: Tom Hanks, Barkhad Abdi, Barkhad Abdirahman PLOT: This is the true story of Captain Richard Phillips and the 2009 hijacking by Somali pirates of the U.S.-flagged MV Maersk Alabama, the first American cargo ship to be hijacked in 200 years.

RATED: PG-13 for sustained intense sequences of menace, some violence with bloody images and substance use TIME: 2 hours, 14 minutes VERDICT: If you saw Paul Greengrass’ “United 93,” a terrifying depiction of one of the doomed flights on 9/11, you know this director can evoke a harrowing, real-life event like few others. In fact, you may not have recovered yet from the experience. So it’s no surprise that Greengrass has produced another expertly crafted, documentary-style film based on a real event – the 2009 hijacking of a cargo ship by Somali pirates and the five-day standoff that ensued, with the ship’s American captain, Richard Phillips, held captive in a stifling covered lifeboat after offering himself as a hostage. A major difference is this movie has a happy ending – for the captain, anyway, who was rescued in a dramatic high-seas Navy sniper operation. Three of the overmatched attackers were killed; the fourth is in a U.S. prison. More cinematically speaking, the difference is that “Captain Phillips” is a star vehicle. In some cases, this can detract from the sense of veracity of a truth-based film. Tom Hanks, though, delivers some of his finest work here, playing the Everyman role he does so well, in this case a fairly ordinary guy forced by circumstance to be a hero. And yet “Captain Phillips” is a remarkably unsentimental film, with an emotional catharsis coming only at the very end, when we’re all ready for some kind of release.

This is where Hanks digs deepest as an actor. Oddly, the film falters only at the beginning – in a brief and awkward domestic scene between Phillips, preparing for what he assumes is a routine voyage, and his wife, Andrea (Catherine Keener, in a tiny part).

The two share stilted dialogue on a drive to the airport, with her asking: “It’s gonna be OK, right?” and him commenting stiffly that the “world is moving so fast.”

But once Phillips gets onto his ship, the movie truly starts. What Greengrass excels at is action – taut and visceral – and it happens as soon as the captain suddenly looks at a screen and sees two small dots moving toward the ship. Two skiffs are carrying bands of armed men; from an early scene on a Somali beach, we know they’ve been whipped into action by their warlords. When they realize they’ve happened upon a U.S. ship, they can’t believe their luck. What WE can’t believe is how a huge cargo ship is so vulnerable to small bands of armed men. But the Maersk Alabama has no gun power aboard, only huge hoses to repel pirates and their machine guns. They don’t work. Soon, four pirates have hoisted a ladder onto the ship. “I’m the captain now,” says their leader, Muse. And the ordeal begins. Greengrass and cinematographer Barry Ackroyd are at their most effective in scenes like the frightening search – in tense, dark spaces, in extreme closeup – by increasingly angry pirates hunting down the crew.

On the other hand, this is where the camerawork gets ever more unstable and jittery. Good for dramatic effect – but bad if you’re susceptible to queasiness or nausea at such times. Be forewarned.

Things get even more intense in the lifeboat, where the pirates are locked in with Phillips for several agonizing days. With the U.S. Navy bearing down, it’s pretty clear where it’s all headed. The only question: Who will die? The movie humanizes the pirates but is not inclined to forgive them. All four Somali actors are excellent, but especially Barkhad Abdi, memorable as Muse. As for Hanks, his final moments are his best, as Phillips registers in an intensely personal way the cumulative effects of what he’s endured. It’s safe to say those moments will be what’s remembered most from this movie, and for a long time. –

“Ender’s Game” STARRING: Harrison Ford, Asa Butterfield, Hailee Steinfeld, Abigail Breslin

PLOT: The International Military seeks out a leader who can save the human race from an alien attack. Ender Wiggin, a brilliant young mind, is recruited and trained to lead his fellow soldiers into a battle that will determine the future of Earth.

RATED: PG-13 for some violence, sci-fi action and thematic material TIME: 1 hour, 54 minutes VERDICT: An anti-bullying allegory writ on the largest possible scale, “Ender’s Game” frames an interstellar battle between mankind and pushy antlike aliens, called Formics, in which Earth’s fate hinges on a tiny group of military cadets, most of whom haven’t even hit puberty yet. At face value, the film presents an electrifying star-wars scenario – that rare case where an epic space battle transpires entirely within the span of two hours – while at the same time managing to deliver a higher pedagogical message about tolerance, empathy and coping under pressure.

Against considerable odds, this risky-sounding Orson Scott Card adaptation actually works, as director Gavin Hood pulls off the sort of teen-targeted franchise starter Summit was hoping for.

Card’s novel assumes a situation where, in the wake of a massive Formic attack, the world’s children are somehow best suited to protect their planet from an imminent second strike. The most promising young recruits train on elaborate videogame-like simulators while a pair of officers – Col. Hyrum Graff (Harrison Ford) and Major Gwen Anderson (Viola Davis) – monitor their techniques in search of “the One,” a child with the strategic instincts to save his species. The leading candidate is Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a runt-like outsider whose behavior toward his aggressive classmates reveals his true potential. Like “The Hunger Games,” the pic peddles the unseemly idea of watching kids thrust into life-anddeath situations. Although they’re not instructed to kill one another, these moppets’ prime directive should also give parents pause, raising the stakes from handto-hand combat to the potential genocide of an unfamiliar race.

Fortunately, Hood (who also penned the adaptation) factors these weighty themes into the story without making them the primary focus. Between the officers, Graff’s agenda is more complicated than he lets on, while Anderson represents the voice of reason, remarking, “It used to be a war crime to recruit anyone under the age of 15.” But these are not soldiers, per se, but highly skilled Junior ROTC types, training on virtual conflict scenarios. Butterfield – who has grown into his big blue eyes, if not the rest of his body, since “Hugo” – makes ideal casting for Ender: He’s scrawny and physically unimposing, yet there’s an intensity to his stare that suggests he might indeed be masking deeper (or darker) gifts.

It’s nothing so powerful as the Force, or Neo’s Matrix-bending abilities, though “Ender’s Game” dedicates nearly its entire run time to Battle School, where our hero and his fellow recruits practice various drills, including an anti-gravity game (the rules of which aren’t terribly clear) that looks like the next best thing to Quidditch. Despite the obvious “be all you can be” subtext, “Ender’s Game” manages to make these training sequences compelling without veering into pro-military propaganda, doing so by focusing on the interpersonal dynamics among the various squad members. Although Card may have publicly revealed his own prejudices, the casting department has assembled a wonderfully diverse group of young actors – male and female, they come in all colors, shapes and sizes – to serve alongside Ender. So much youthful energy onscreen makes Ford seem tired and weary by comparison. Still, it’s a treat to discover Han Solo all buttoned up and back to do more space battle – not that anyone here is quite as lively or memorable as the characters B-movie fans discovered in “Star Wars” three dozen years ago. Butterfield’s “Hugo” co-star Ben Kingsley also pops up for a late cameo, sporting an Australian accent and an elaborate Maori tribal tattoo across his entire face (a poor man’s Darth Maul, perhaps?). It might not seem fair to compare what Hood has created to someone as visionary in all things sci-fi as George Lucas, and yet, considering the sizable

budget expended on “Ender’s Game,” one could have hoped for something a bit more groundbreaking. – Variety

“Last Vegas” STARRING: Robert De Niro, Michael Douglas, Morgan Freeman, Kevin Kline PLOT: Three sixty-something friends take a break from their day-to-day lives to throw a bachelor party in Las Vegas for their last remaining single pal.

RATED: PG-13 on appeal for sexual content and language TIME: 1 hour, 45 minutes VERDICT: As creaky as an arthritic hip, “Last Vegas” does for four leading stars of the ’70s and ’80s what movies like “Tough Guys” and “Grumpy Old Men” did for survivors of Hollywood’s storied Golden Age: It lets them show they can still throw a punch, bust a move and get it on, and that they’re not quite ready for the Motion Picture Home just yet.

Beyond that, this genteel “Hangover” for the AARP crowd has little to recommend it, although a smattering of funny gags and the nostalgia value of the cast keeps the whole thing more watchable than it has any right to be. One doesn’t exactly expect “Death in Venice” from a movie that begins on a shot of female cellulite jiggling beneath the surface of a Florida community pool. But as various senior-centric pics have proven, from Martin Brest’s delightful caper “Going in Style” to Ron Howard’s “Cocoon,” going gray isn’t automatically an impediment to a screenplay that consists of more than death and Viagra jokes. But “Last Vegas” scribe Dan Fogelman (who wrote the monumentally smarter and shrewder “Crazy, Stupid, Love”) pretty much sticks to the lowest common denominator as he contrives to get four childhood friends together in Sin City for the bachelor party of the last unmarried man among them.

He’s named Billy and played by a blow-dried, spray-tanned Michael Douglas in what feels like a watered-down version of the actor’s magnificent aging lothario from 2009’s “Solitary Man.” When Billy impulsively proposes to his strapping 31-year-old girlfriend (in the midst of delivering a friend’s eulogy, no less), best bud Sam (Kevin Kline) – the one trapped in that infernal Florida swimming pool – suggests a boy’s weekend in Vegas, and the rest of this whitehaired wolf pack is soon to follow.

Back when they were kids on the streets of Brooklyn, Billy and his pals were known as the Flatbush Four, although now they’re mainly just flat and bushed: In addition to Sam, there’s stroke survivor Archie (Morgan Freeman, essentially reprising his “Bucket List” character) and surly widower Paddy (Robert De Niro), who hasn’t forgiven Billy for skipping out on his wife’s funeral (she was their shared childhood sweetheart).

From all points, they converge on the ultra-luxurious Aria casino resort, where they find themselves comped with a penthouse suite – and a personal concierge (Romany Malco) – after Archie cleans house at the blackjack table. That pretty much gives them the run of the place, though they do make one important side trip to nearby Binion’s, where Billy catches the eye of a jazz chanteuse shimmering in a sparkly mauve gown as she belts out “Only You” in a desolate hotel bar. The singer, Diana (Mary Steenburgen), also is “of a certain age” and has been around the block a few times, but unlike her male counterparts in “Last Vegas,” she’s been written as more than a one-dimensional type, and she’s played by the marvelous Steenburgen with a richness that goes even beyond what’s on the page. She’s an oasis of real, grown-up emotion in a movie that often feels more sophomoric (and a lot less funny) than the concurrent “Bad Grandpa.” The rest of the movie rarely if ever rises to Steenburgen’s level. Most of the comic payoffs are so obviously telegraphed the audience can see them coming within a few frames of the setup. Actors like these can sometimes be a pleasure to watch even when saddled with sitcom material, because their timing and delivery is still better than most.

But in “Last Vegas,” everyone seems to be on a mildly diverting paid vacation, especially Freeman, who can scarcely disguise his contempt for the material. He doesn’t just seem to be phoning it in; he seems to be emailing it in from his trailer.

“Thor: The Dark World” STARRING: Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston

PLOT: Thor, faced with an enemy even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.

RATED: PG-13 for sequences of intense sci-fi action and violence, and some suggestive content TIME: 1 hour, 51 minutes

VERDICT: Comic book movies are increasingly, like Sandra Bullock in “Gravity,” lost in space. Following the summer’s glumly bombastic “Man of Steel,” which added a heavy dose of Krypton politics to Superman’s once pleasantly silly story, comes “Thor: The Dark World,” in which Thor’s Asgard, a celestial home of gods floating somewhere in the universe, is the primary setting. Earth is an afterthought – just one of the “nine realms,” albeit the one with Natalie Portman. Gone are the earthbound pleasures of a superhero amid us mortals. Such was the joy of the “Spider-Man” movies and the first “Thor,” when Chris Hemsworth’s lofty, hammer-wielding Norse warrior, exiled to Earth, so happily encountered a cup of coffee for the first time. As Marvel’s latest 3-D behemoth, “Thor: The Dark World” isn’t so much a sequel as the latest plug-and-play into the comic book company’s blockbuster algorithm.

It’s a reliably bankable formula of world-saving action sequences, new villain introductions and clever quips from women on the side, (and they, most assuredly, are always off to the side). The expansive Marvel universe is carefully stitched together across its many properties. “The Dark World” (with director Alan Taylor of “Game of Thrones” taking over for Kenneth Branaugh) follows “The Avengers” in chronology and runs alongside the current, unremarkable ABC series “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” Each is referred to with something less than, say, the binding connections of Faulkner’s Yoknapatawpha County. Instead we get cloying winks. The great city of New York, for example, is reduced to shorthand for the climactic battle

Yes, we’re all very impressed it made so much money. Thor has spent the last two years restoring order to the nine realms of the cosmos, but just as peace settles, a previously locked-away dark energy called the Aether seeps out. It leaks into Portman’s astrophysicist, Jane Foster, awakening a previously vanquished species of Dark Elves, led by Malekith (Christopher Eccleston).

They would like to see the universe returned to complete darkness.

Not a day person, this Malekith.

This occurs as the nine realms are lining up in a rare convergence that makes them particularly susceptible to Aether-spread ruin.

There’s not a lick of character to Malekith and his motives: He just wants to end all life. To save Life As We Know It, Thor seeks help from his duplicitous adoptive brother, Loki (Tom Hiddleston), who has been imprisoned for killing thousands of humans at “New York.” Hiddleston’s sneering Loki remains one of the finest Marvel antagonists, and – now with a starring role in three films – the franchise seems to value him (as it should) as much as his more heroic brother. When “The Dark World” touches down on Earth, away from the “Clash of the Titans”-style realms of gods, it’s considerably better. Along with Portman, returning is the sarcasm sidekick Kat Dennings (as Jane’s intern) and Stellan Skarsgard as discredited scientist Erik Selvig. Chris O’Dowd makes a welcome cameo as a blind date for a very reluctant Jane. The tone is far more amiable on Earth (London, to be specific, the site of the final showdown) than in Asgard, where Anthony Hopkins, Renee Russo and Idris Elba remain locked in golden-hued majesty.

Hemsworth, a seemingly perfectly rendered movie star equipped with brawn and baritone, also suffers from the stiffness. He had much more fun in “Rush” earlier this year. Ardent fans (who should stay through the credits) will likely be satiated by the pleasing enough “Thor: The Dark World.”

But perhaps at this point, even diehards may wish for something more from a Marvel equation that often subtracts humanity. – The

Wife’s wild past puts future of her marriage in jeopardy Dear Abby: This is my wife’s second marriage. When we were dating, she led me to believe I was the second sexual partner she had ever had.

Shortly after our wedding, I found out through some mutual acquaintances she had attended college with she had been very promiscuous during her college years and the number of men she has been with is far greater than two.

I feel lied to and trapped in my marriage. (If I had known this, I would not have married her.) She knows I know. She dismissed it by saying the past doesn’t matter, but what she fails to recognize is that it

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips matters to ME. I can’t help but wonder if she has lied to me about something this important, what else will she lie to me about?

I love her and want to stay with her, but I feel betrayed and, frankly, embarrassed by her now. What do I do? – Con-

founded In The South Dear Confounded: People lie when they feel threatened, when they want to impress someone or when they’re ashamed of something. The

lie your wife told you may fall into the latter category. She wasn’t honest about the number of men she had been with because she knew you would react the way you have.

You say you love her, but if you truly feel embarrassed by the fact you’re not the second man she has slept with, then you either need to change your attitude or do her a favor and think about ending your marriage. From my perspective, the number of lovers she has had since the wedding is far more important than the number she had before.

Please be aware many women in our society have had multiple partners, so

if you’re looking to replace your wife anytime soon, you may be hard-pressed to find a woman with no experience.

If you want to salvage your marriage, I strongly recommend you talk to a therapist, but don’t spend your money unless you can forgive your wife for being afraid to tell you the truth.

Dear Abby: I’m a 16-year-old guy, and I have a problem. I recently met a girl in a chat room, and we seemed to hit it off pretty well. As we’ve been talking, she has told me she is suicidal, and in the past three days she has made three attempts to take her life. (As I’m writing this, she is in the

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff perature inside the body – is what counts. Core temperature is generally a degree or so higher than the temperature in our mouth because, for most of us, most of the time, the air we breathe in through our mouth is cooler than our core body temperature. The best way to measure our core temperature is by rectal or inner-ear measurement.

If a “normal” temperature is variable, and not just a single simple number, why do we bother to take it? Because temperature outside that normal range of 97.5 to 98.9 degrees often is an indicator of disease. If you’re not feeling well, and your temperature is 101 degrees, or 96 degrees, there’s something wrong.

Your doctor has a diagnosis to make.

The most common cause of elevated body temperature is infection. Almost any infection in the body can cause fever. But there are other causes of elevated body temperature, including heat stroke or a

drug reaction.

Although it happens less often, abnormally low body temperature can indicate a condition such as an underactive thyroid. Once, I was called to see a patient with a body temperature of 95 and a heart rate of 35 (normal is 60 to 80). His thyroid was so underactive that his heart and metabolism were really slowed down.

When a person’s body temperature goes too far outside the normal range, it’s bad for the body – sometimes really bad. That’s because the cells of the body depend on a narrow temperature range for thousands of internal chemical reactions to occur properly. Severely low or high body temperature can lead to permanent organ damage, even death.

So don’t be concerned about a body temperature that’s not exactly 98.6, so long as it’s in the normal range.

And when it’s not, particularly if you are not feeling well, it’s time to call the doctor.

P R I M E

Body temperature can fall on either side of 98.6 degrees F. Dear Dr. K: Even when I’m feeling fine, my body temperature is rarely 98.6 degrees. I thought that was the normal temperature. Should I be concerned?

Dear Reader: It’s still taught to schoolchildren: Normal human body temperature is 98.6 degrees F. But people are different from one another.

That’s as true of their body temperature as it is of their height, the size of their ears or the color of their hair.

What is a “normal” temperature? Researchers have measured the body temperatures of thousands of healthy people. They’ve found normal oral temperatures range from 97.5 to 98.9 degrees. About one in 20 people have temperatures even a bit lower or higher.

Each person’s body temperature also varies by 1 or 2 degrees over the course of the day. It reaches a low between 2 and 4 a.m., and a high 12 hours later.

There also is some inaccuracy in the way we usually take our temperature. Our mouth is a convenient place to measure our temperature.

Gyllenhaal gets stitches

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Friday, November 15, 2013 • Section C • Page 10

Jake Gyllenhaal needed stitches after shooting an intense scene for his new film, “Nightcrawler.”

A spokeswoman for Gyllenhaal says the 32-year-old actor returned to work Thursday for a final day of filming after a few hours in the emergency room.

Mara Buxbaum said Gyllenhaal was in character Wednesday when he hit a mirror, which unexpectedly broke and cut his hand. She said it was “badly cut up” and required “numerous stiches.”

“Nightcrawler” is a crime drama also starring Rene Russo and Bill Paxton. It’s set for release next year.

BUZZWORTHY

CBS to air Beatles special CBS is planning a two-hour special to mark the 50th anniversary of the Beatles’ groundbreaking first appearance on “The Ed Sullivan Show.”

The Feb. 9 special will be billed as a Grammy Awards salute to the Beatles. It will be recorded the day after the Grammys take place two weeks earlier. Top contemporary artists will cover songs the Beatles performed on Sullivan, a historic night in music that launched Beatlemania in the United States.

The special will be aired 50 years to the day the Beatles appeared on Sullivan, in the same time slot and on the same network.

No participating artists were announced Thursday.

PBS renews ‘Tavis Smiley’ talk show

Warhol painting fetches record $105M A prized 1963 Andy Warhol painting that captures the immediate aftermath of a car crash sold for $105 million Wednesday at a New York City auction, shattering the record for the famed pop artist amid a spending frenzy at the high end of the art world.

The 8- by 13-foot painting titled “Silver Car Crash (Double Disaster)” depicts a twisted body sprawled across a car’s mangled interior. It has only been seen once in public in the past 26 years. Sotheby’s, which conducted the auction, did not immediately identify the buyer.

The previous Warhol auction record was set in 2007 when “Green Car Crash (Green Burning Car I)” sold for $71.7 million.

Another iconic Warhol, “Coca-Cola (3),” sold for $57.2 million Tuesday at Christie’s auction house, and his portrait of Elizabeth Taylor titled “Liz #1 (Early Colored Liz)” sold for $20 million Wednesday.

A Willem de Kooning abstract painting in red, yellow and white called “Untitled V,” not seen in public since 1980, sold for $24.8 million Wednesday. The sale fell short of the record for the artist’s works, set Tuesday at Christie’s with the sale of his “Untitled VIII” from 1977.

Sotheby’s said the sale brought in over $480.4 million. None of Wednesday’s buyers were identified.

The Warhol record came just a day after the most expensive work of art ever sold at auction went for $142.4 million to conclude six minutes of feverish bidding at Christie’s. The hefty price tag for a 1967 Francis Bacon triptych called “Three Studies of Lucian Freud” shattered the previous world record – nearly $120 million paid for Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” at a 2012 Sotheby’s sale.

Christie’s said the winning bid went to New York City’s Acquavella Galleries. It is believed the gallery was buying it for an unidentified client.

Tavis Smiley, who has brought rare diversity to late-night TV for a decade on PBS, will add another two years to his run.

The “Tavis Smiley” show has been renewed through 2015, PBS said Thursday.

“The highlight for me is surviving,” Smiley said, noting the growing competitiveness in the late-night talk show realm.

He said he’s unfazed by the coming shake-up that will see Jay Leno step down (again) as host of NBC’s “Tonight,” with the venerable show heading east as Jimmy Fallon takes over in February.

“For us, it’s the same old, same old – another white guy joins the line up,” Smiley said. “In some ways, it might benefit us because ‘Tonight’ is moving to New York. So that’s one less option that guests in LA have to be booked on.”

Google lawsuit dropped A federal judge handed Google Inc. a victory in a long-running legal battle Thursday, tossing out a lawsuit claiming the Internet giant was violating copyright laws by scanning books without their permission to create the world’s largest

digital library.

The Authors Guild had sued Google in federal court in Manhattan 2005, claiming the Mountain View, Calif.-based company was not making “fair use” of copyright material by offering searchable snippets of works in its online library.

Among the plaintiffs was former New York Yankees pitcher Jim Bouton, author of the best-seller “Ball Four.”

Google already has scanned more than 20 million books, most of them out-of-print, for the project. It includes the collections of the New York Public Library, Library of Congress and several major universities.

Actress convicted of stalking Baldwin A Canadian actress who pined for Alec Baldwin was convicted Thursday of stalking him with yearning emails and phone calls that spiraled into unbidden appearances at his homes.

So voluble during her trial that she was held in contempt of court, Genevieve Sabourin was tearful but largely mum as a judge found her guilty of charges including stalking and harassment and sentenced her to six months in jail. That was on top of a month she’s already serving because of her courtroom outbursts.

“I haven’t done anything wrong. I’m innocent,” she told Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Robert Mandelbaum when he invited her to speak. “You’re doing a mistake right now.”

Sabourin, who hails from the Montreal suburb of Candiac, had turned down a plea offer that would have spared her jail time.

Baldwin’s wife, Hilaria, said in a statement afterward the two “feel safe, relieved and happy to move forward” with the case resolved.

The “30 Rock” actor testified that Sabourin, 41, turned his life into a two-year-long horror film after they had dinner together. He said the evening was only a chat about her career prospects, not the romantic tryst she portrayed.

Escape comes roaring back for 2014

By ANN M. JOB The Associated Press Pleasantly styled inside and out and offering fuel-savvy, turbocharged power, the Ford Escape sport utility vehicle is threatening to dethrone the Honda CR-V as America’s top-selling compact SUV. For 2014, the five-passenger Escape retains its agile handling and tidy size while adding a rearview camera and improved Sync MyFord voice-activated phone and audio system as standard equipment on all

models.

Pricing also is notable. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, of $23,595 for a base 2014 Escape is an increase of only $230 from 2013.

Better yet, the base, 2014 Escape S with front-wheel drive and 168-horsepower, non-turbo four cylinder is priced $180 less than the $23,775 starting retail price for a base, 2014 Honda CR-V with front-wheel drive.

The CR-V, which has a 185-horsepower,

naturally aspirated four cylinder, already has a standard rearview camera on all models.

Both Escape and CR-V are offered only with automatic transmissions. But another compact SUV competitor, the 2014 Subaru Forester, starts at $21,995 with 170-horsepower, naturally aspirated four cylinder, manual transmission and all-wheel drive.

The 2014 Forester starts at $22,996 with a continuously variable transmission that drivers operate like an automatic.

While all-wheel drive is standard on all

Foresters, this feature adds substantially to the price of a 2014 Escape. According to Ford’s U.S. consumer website, starting MSRP, including destination charge, for a 2014 Escape with all-wheel drive is $28,195 because buyers must move up to the Escape SE with 178-horsepower, turbocharged four cylinder.

Meanwhile, the lowest starting retail price for an all-wheel drive, 2014 CR-V is $25,025.

In front, the 2014 Audi Q5 boasts a large grille, lower air dams, fog lights and xenon headlamps. Note the Audi logo of four circles in the grille. Each circle represents one of the four companies that merged to form Audi in the 1930s. The “quattro” badging indicates four-wheel-drive.

Two for the show Audi’s Q5 so good, it raises the question why stop at one?

T

he temptation exists. Instead of one, why not buy two of them – one for the garage and the other for the driveway. That way, if someone in the family is off shopping in one, there is the other to use.

Audi’s Q5 is one of those special vehicles. Almost all luxury manufacturers have one of these in the lineup, notably REVIEWS Cadillac, Infiniti, Acura, Lexus, BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

Jerry They are midsize sport Kuyper utility vehicles loaded to the hilt with electronic and power devices, easy to maneuver, restful to drive, somewhat economical and simply appealing.

Unfortunately, they cost lots of money with pricing in the $40,000 to $65,000 range.

That was the case with the recently tested 2014 Audi Q5. It carried a suggested manufacturer’s price of $46,500, but delivery and an option package raised the total to $50,000. Delivery is an additional $895. The $3,500 option package included a navigation system with voice control, an upgraded sound system to include high definition radio and a DVD player, a color instead of black and white information screen and a rearview camera.

Over and above the usual power features (four express up and down windows, door locks, exterior heated foldable mirrors and front leather seats), the Q5 came with power panoramic sunroof, liftgate and rear folding seats. The controls for folding or raising the rear seats are just inside the carpeted and lighted cargo area. The liftgate can be operated by remote key fob or a control on the driver’s door panel. The liftgate opens and closes manually, as well.

Leather and metal trim decorate the interior.

Without dwelling on niceties such as armrests, cupholders, courtesy lights, cruise control, air conditioning, heated nozzles with the front windshield wipers and the like, the powerplant is worth a paragraph or two.

The 2014 Audi Q5 has a 3-liter, 240-horsepower TDI diesel as well as gasoline 2- and 3-liter powerplants. The diesel and gasoline engines are mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The beauty of the diesel is it can average up to 30 percent better mileage than a gasoline engine. During a test week in the 2014 diesel Q5, average fuel consumption was 26.8 miles per gallon in combined city and highway driving. Even so, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, the tested diesel’s combined mpg was not 30 percent better than an untested gasoline engine Q5. The EPA rates the 2-liter at 23 mpg and the gasoline 3-liter at 21 mpg in combined city and highway driving. This diesel vehicle weighs 4,475 pounds, and the gas pedal was put to liberal use during the testing period, which makes the mpg even more remarkable.

An automatic start-stop system gives a boost, although negligible, to fuel economy figures. The Q5’s engine stops when the vehicle does, presumably saving on fuel at red lights. The engine pops back into action when the driver’s foot is taken off the brake and placed on the gas pedal.

Diesel fuel is readily available, especially in the Chicago-Rockford-Milwaukee areas. The tank holds 19.8 gallons.

The ride is high, quiet and, with a five-link (front) and trapezoidal-link (rear) suspension system including coil springs, large gas shocks and stabilizer bars, a delight. It will take a deep hole or rut to send this suspension system into convulsions.

Brakes are discs, 13.6 inches in front and 13 inches in the rear, which contribute, from a speed of 60 mph, to a stopping distance of about 130 feet. Besides capable brakes, safety elements include traction and stability controls, an antilock braking system, front, side and overhead airbags, tethers and anchors for child seats and safety belts with pretensioners and

This diesel came relatively loaded with 19-inch P235 tires mounted on alloy wheels, xenon headlamps, LED daytime running lights, keyless start and entry, a 10-speaker sound system with CD and MP3 playback, SiriusXM satellite radio, iPod integration and Bluetooth. There are aluminum door sill inlays, automatic dimming rearview mirror with an embedded digital compass, compass, dual front sun visors with lighted vanity mirrors, memory setting for the driver’s seat, a sliding split and fold rear seat with pass-through and adjustable recline, heated and power front seats, exterior foldable mirrors and door locks, automatic windshield wipers that sense rain, front and rear fog lights, dual flat bottom exhaust outlets with polished tips and heated windshield washer nozzles.

TDI is a Volkswagen AG registered trademark. It stands for turbocharged direct injection. This means injectors spray fuel directly into the combustion chamber. Older diesels had a less responsive pre-combustion chamber. Direct injection in the TDI allows the turbocharger to force increased air into the six intercooled cylinders. The result is economy, better torque and efficiency.

Diesel engines are much simpler and economical, but they can cost more than a gasoline powerplant due to the emission system’s pollution cleansing devices necessary to meet national air quality standards. Diesels should last longer than gasoline engines. In the long run, when it comes to fuel usage, they will save money.

There might be temporary confusion in the marketplace with the Audi Q5 as Infiniti has embarked on a program of renaming its vehicles with the letter Q or QX followed by a number. The QX50, for example, is an Infiniti product that costs $35,800 in its AWD apparel. The $40,000 to $50,000 QX60 more approximates the Audi Q5 in engine and trim appointments.

No matter a Q or a QX, these vehicles are several that exist in that rarified air of extremely pleasurable midsize SUVs.

SE model combines best of new Escape’s attributes • ESCAPE Continued from page D1 The test 2014 Escape SE FWD with a total price tag of $26,840 exhibited many of the best attributes of today’s Escape.

The attractive, upscale-looking exterior is one of the nicest on a smaller-size SUV on the market. Inside the test vehicle, the smartly designed dashboard, contrasting color fabric seats and Ice Blue lighting had a modern appeal.

The strongly supportive seat foam, even without a lot of side bolstering, provided fatigue-free driving for threehour-plus trips. Still, the seat fabric allowed passengers to slide a bit into place and felt neither too hot in the sun nor too cold on frosty mornings.

The SE included power adjustments for the driver’s seat, and the front passenger seat, while not powered, has four adjustments, including height adjustment.

The generous seat track for fore and aft movement of the driver seat as well as the power seat height adjustment helped make all sorts of drivers comfortable. At the same time, adults got inside the 5.5-foot-tall Escape easily — no climbing needed.

All three Escape engines have four cylinders. The test SE had the mid-range, 1.6-liter, double overhead cam, EcoBoost, turbocharged four cylinder that provides the best fuel economy ratings of 23 miles per gallon in city driving and 32 mpg on the highway.

Given the experience in the test Escape FWD model, this is entirely attainable, too.

The tester averaged 24.6 mpg in city driving and posted a 27.4-mpg average over long highway trips that included hilly areas.

Fact sheet Vehicle: 2014 Ford Escape SE FWD BASE PRICE: $22,700 for base S; $25.550 for SE FWD. PRICE AS TESTED: $26,840.

TYPE: Front-engine, frontwheel drive, five-passenger, compact sport utility vehicle.

ENGINE: 1.6-liter, double overhead cam, EcoBoost, turbocharged four cylinder with Tri-VCT. MILEAGE: 23 mpg (city), 32 mpg (highway).

TOP SPEED: NA. LENGTH: 178.1 inches.

WHEELBASE: 105.9 inches.

CURB WEIGHT: 3,515 pounds.

BUILT AT: Louisville, Ky. OPTIONS: Ruby Red metallic exterior paint $395.

DESTINATION CHARGE: $895.

Best of all, the turbo helped the Escape zoom around and away from bottlenecks when needed.

The quick acceleration from the Escape’s 184 footpounds of torque at a low 2,500 rpm isn’t typically found in non-turbos. It compares with the CR-V’s 163 footpounds of torque arriving at 4,400 rpm and the Forester’s 174 foot-pounds of torque at 4,100 rpm from its base, 2.5-liter, non-turbo four cylinder.

Still, the Escape’s notquite 15.1-gallon gasoline tank needed filling before 390 miles.

Regular gasoline is all that’s needed, and the Escape includes Ford’s innovative gas tank that has no fuel cap, just a self-sealing opening.

Note that the Escape is at the top of fuel economy among non-hybrid, gasoline-powered, compact SUVs. The 2014 CR-V, for example, is rated by the federal government at 23/31 mpg, while the 2014 Subaru with base,

2.5-liter four cylinder is rated at 24/32 mpg.

The Escape’s maximum towing capacity is 3,500 pounds with the top, 2-liter, turbocharged, EcoBoost four cylinder.

The ride in the test Escape was loud with considerable road noise from the 17-inch tires coming through. It was noticeable enough that the driver often adjusted the audio volume while driving.

But the 14.8-foot-long Escape steered, handled and braked more like a well-connected car than a taller-riding SUV. The electric power-assisted, rack-and-pinion steering had good on-center feel and relatively quick response to driver inputs. And the Escape rode stably through curves and held its line and its poise even on speedy, curvy downhill roads.

In fact, the test Escape kept up with some sporty cars in aggressive driving through hilly turns and curves.

There were a few nits: A rear window defrost button on the dashboard seemed to be loose and cheap-feeling.

Quality of the floor in the 68.1-cubic-foot rear cargo area didn’t match the upscale exterior. There was no knob for tuning the radio.

The 2014 Escape earned four out of five stars for overall crashworthiness in federal government tests.

The sales rivalry between Escape and CR-V goes back years. During calendar 2012, though, the CR-V’s 281,652 U.S. sales soundly surpassed the Escape’s 261,008. Calendar 2013 is a different story.

As of the end of October, the Escape was just 1,093 vehicles shy of the CR-V’s 251,636 total sales for calendar 2013 in the United States.

This was despite Consumer Reports magazine listing the Escape’s reliability as worse than average.

Hybrid batteries may change I try to read your column every week, but may have missed a few. I bought a 2013 Chevrolet Volt after researching numerous articles and reviews. One article, if true, stated that more than 90 percent of current owners would buy another Volt.

I usually keep cars more than 10 years. I am retired and plan to drive my Volt in the local area using little or no gas. I have used it on a long trip with fuel economy better than a 45 MPG average. Also, it seemed to be as comfortable on this trip as my “highway car.”

I believe if I am satisfied with the approximate 30 percent drop in the battery capacity performance at the eight-year mark, I will continue to drive it. If I am not satisfied with this level of capacity, I believe the battery replacement cost could be lower than the critics are claiming today.

What are your thoughts? Have you reported anything on the Chevy Volt? Do you have any comments related to this car or its technology?

– R., email I have answered questions about the Chevrolet Volt. Basically, Chevrolet took ideas used in diesel electric train engines and modified the principles for cars.

General Motors makes train engines. The diesel engine in a train powers an alternator to produce electricity that powers the electric motors that move a train. Your car has a small gasoline engine that turns an alternator that produces electrical power to charge a battery pack to power the motor that turns the car’s wheels.

In a train, the huge diesel engine runs continuously. In your car, the gasoline engine runs only when the battery pack needs a charge, and it has stop technology so the engine stops when the vehicle stops for a light or sign. When making short trips, the engine may not run at all, and the car’s electric motor runs on battery power. During longer trips of as many as 40 miles, the electricity stored in the battery depletes and the gasoline engine turns on to recharge. Of course, when the vehicle is not in use, you can plug the car into an electrical outlet to charge the battery.

As the car ages, the battery pack loses its capacity to store as much electrical power as it did when it was new. As a result, it loses about 30 percent of its capacity by the time it is 8 years old.

Therefore the car does not travel as far as it did when new on the battery power. Instead of traveling for example 40 miles strictly on battery power depending on road conditions it may travel only 10 to 30 miles on electricity before the gasoline engine kicks in to charge the battery.

If this reduction is not acceptable, the battery can be replaced with a remanufactured unit, which might cost about $3,000 to replace. I say might cost $3,000 because no one really knows what the price of a battery will be eight years down the road. The price might drop. It might skyrocket. Or a new developing technology might replace the present battery, such as lithium-air, aluminum-air and others that are predicted to cost from $1,500 to $9,000.

Some batteries under development might power a car 1,000 miles on a single charge. That would be awesome. We will have to wait a few years to see how research and development shakes out, but presently a remanufactured battery pack installation is much less than $9,000.

I have a great 2004 Chevy Silverado with a 5.3-liter V-8 engine and 103,000 miles. About 1,500 miles after an oil change using regular oil, the pressure drops to 25 pounds when the engine is idling.

The last time I changed the oil, I used a high mileage synthetic blend. After two to three days of travel, the oil pressure dropped to 25 pounds. Is this normal? – J.H., St. Paul, Minn.

The differences between synthetic lubricant and good old mineral oil are great. What you experienced is nothing unusual or to be concerned about. The issue all of us should be concerned about is

DR. GIZMO Phil Arendt oil pressure and oil level. In all vehicles except 100 percent electric, it’s important to maintain at all times a proper oil level between the add and full dipstick marks. Equally important is oil pressure. It must be monitored.

Because specifications for oil pressure vary from one make of vehicle to another, it’s important to heed an illuminated oil warning light on the instrument cluster. If it turns on, the engine should immediately be shut off. The light warns of low oil pressure. This might be caused by an extremely low oil level or a mechanical issue in the engine such as a failed oil pump.

An illuminated warning light also might be caused by an electrical issue such as a failed sensor, but ignoring the light might mean doom for the engine in short order. If the light turns on, don’t speculate why it turned on. Shut off the engine and call a tow truck. An engine suffering from a lack of lubrication grinds itself to bits in seconds.

In vehicles equipped with a gauge, it’s easy to not pay attention to the instrument panel. Monitor the oil pressure gauge. When the pressure drops below what you normally see on the gauge, it’s time to shut off the engine and have the issue addressed.

Certainly the oil level might be excessively low, but the trouble might be caused by mechanical or electrical issues. Since some vehicles are equipped with a low oil level warning light, heed its warning too.

In your vehicle, 25 pounds per square inch at an idle is nothing to worry about. This seems to be the normal pressure you are accustomed to reading on the gauge. If pressure drops below 25 to say around 15 p.s.i., it’s time to be concerned.

The oil level may be low,

but if this is the cause, in my experience, the engine is nearly empty. Adding oil hopefully will resolve the issue. Also, mechanical issues such as excessive engine wear might be the cause. It’s also possible an electrical issue such as a failed oil pressure sensor might be the source of trouble but you won’t know the reason until a technician determines the cause. To prevent severe engine damage, shut it off.

The power steering in my 2009 Ford Fusion has a problem. First, the belt jumped off the pulley on the pump but not completely off. About half of the belt was still on the pulley, and the other half was shredded hanging off the pulley, tangled around other parts. The steering became stiff, as well. A shop removed the mess and installed a new belt.

Now the power steering is better, but not as light as before. Now when I turn, there is resistance in the opposite direction, especially on right turns. It’s as though I’m fighting a force in the other direction. If I’m standing still with the wheels straight ahead and I speed up the engine, the steering wheel slowly turns left all by itself. Is this caused by something in the power steering pump or something else? – R.M., email It’s possible there is an issue in the pump, but it is more likely the steering rack has an internal fault such as a broken or leaky seal. To repair the issue, the rack might need replacement.

When you take the car to a shop, ask them to consider this as a possible cause. Hydraulic pressure tests of the pump and steering rack, and a visual exam of the fluid should find the cause of the issue.

Jim Falco, McHenry County College’s executive dean for career and technology, stands next to recently purchased robotics setup in a repurposed classroom at the community college. MCC has been identifying and implementing programs in manufacturing to produce more skilled workers for local companies.

Bridging the gap MCC helps build pipeline of skilled workers

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Two years ago, administrators from McHenry County College began a series of meetings with area manufactures struggling to find qualified workers.

MCC Executive Dean of Education Jim Falco found what he called a “triple threat” to local manufacturing companies: an aging workforce, a lack of workers in the pipeline, and the low skill levels of employees interested in manufacturing.

After more than a dozen meetings with businesses – and a $500,000 grant from the Department of Labor – McHenry County College has expanded its advanced manufacturing programs in an effort to provide more high-skilled workers for local manufacturers. Manufacturing accounts for about a quarter of McHenry County’s economy.

With the Trade Adjustment Assistance grant, the college recently bought two computer numerical control, or CNC, machines, three robotics machines, and advanced manufacturing software, all of which are aimed at preparing students for the changing, and highly-technical, manufacturing field.

“The college is really invested in this,” Falco said. “We want to support manufacturing because it is such a large part of the economy in McHenry County.”

MCC has revamped its manufacturing curriculum by offering a new degree in engineering technology, which was just approved during the summer. Students also can get a 30-credit or a 12-credit CNC certificate, something Department Chair for Applied Technologies Heather Zaccagnini said can be a fast track to employment.

MCC to offer internal auditor training course

Kyle Grillot – kgrillot@shawmedia.com

John Padron, a robotic technology engineering student from Huntley, works in a recently repurposed classroom at McHenry County College.

“The biggest benefit is that students can come in and say they need to get a job. They need the shortest path to employment. That would be the 12-credit CNC certificate,” Zaccagnini said. “They can do it in one semester … One of the most exciting parts is how fast they can move through the program.”

Zaccagnini has been heavily involved in discussions with McHenry County manufacturers and said companies are looking for tech-savvy employees who can fill in for a workforce that continues to lose employees to retirement.

“The average age for a lot of the companies in McHenry County is 3540, and that’s a really high average age,” she said. “They’re doing everything they can to get the word out that manufacturing is a very high-tech field. It’s not working in a dark dungeon anymore. They need people who have skills. They need people who

have a familiarity with technology.”

Zaccagnini said the days of the “I Love Lucy” conveyer belt are over, as manufacturing requires more training and critical-thinking skills than ever before. She also dismissed the notion that robotics and machinebased manufacturing take jobs away from people.

“I’ve been in manufacturing now for 25 years and that’s been a misconception the entire time,” Zaccagnini said. “There’s always this fear factor that automation is going to replace people, and there won’t be any jobs.

That just has never happened. What happens is we need more skilled people.

“And the jobs that we’re replacing with automation, they’re not fun jobs. You stand there and do the same thing every day. It causes things like repetitive trauma kinds of injuries.”

See GAP, page E2

McHENRY – McHenry County College is offering internal auditing training, scheduled from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Dec. 5 and 12.

By LOU KESTEN The Associated Press Video-game fans who reserved Sony’s PlayStation 4 several months ago won’t have any regrets when it goes on sale Friday in North America: The PS4 is a terrific game machine that will feel familiar to PlayStation 3 owners while delivering the flashier eye candy you’d expect from gaming’s next generation.

WOODSTOCK – The Woodstock Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Adult & Child Therapy Services are hosting a preview party Nov. 29 for the Woodstock Ale Festival.

The preview party, which starts at 5 p.m. and coincides with Woodstock’s Lighting of the Square, will be at the Woodstock Chamber office, 136 Cass St. The preview will feature a selection of craft beers, food from Calogero’s, Sugar Circle and the Woodstock Public House. The Georgia Rae Family Band, which recently had a member win the Illinois State Old-Time Fiddle Grand Champion award, will provide music for the event.

Tickets cost $25 and must be purchased in advance from the Chamber or Adult & Child Therapy Services.

The Woodstock Ale Fest, a celebration of craft beer, bacon and blue grass, will be the city’s first craft beer festival. It will take place Oct. 4, 2014.

The goal of the festival is to showcase American craft beer while supporting the community. Proceeds will benefit the Woodstock Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Adult & Child Therapy Services, a nonprofit group that provides physical, speech and occupational therapy.

Microsoft diehards will grouse about the PlayStation hype until Nov. 22, when the new Xbox One comes out.

There’s no reason for envy: Most of the best PlayStation 4 games will be available on Microsoft’s new console as well.

Indeed, many gamers already have made up their minds months ago. If you’re somewhere in between – say, a frequent game player who doesn’t feel an ironclad allegiance to either system – the PlayStation 4 is a good buy.

Its launch lineup includes 22 games to attract fans of just about any genre, from military shooters to sports simulations to family friendly adventures. It also offers such a wealth of easily accessible media apps, including Hulu and Netflix, that may draw even the non-gamers in your household.

It’s not yet absolutely essential, but if you’re ready to upgrade from a PlayStation 3 or rival console, it’s

worth the $400 price tag. That’s $100 cheaper than the Xbox One, but $100 more than Nintendo’s year-old Wii U. The PS3 still will be available for $200, but that’s now 7-year-old technology.

The PlayStation 4 is a slender, unobtrusive box that plugs into your TV via HDMI cable. Once you’ve turned on the power, it takes just a few minutes to connect to the Internet and create or update a free account on Sony’s PlayStation Network.

The PS4’s on-screen user interface has been streamlined, with a horizontal bar of large icons for games and apps.

Above that is a line of smaller icons that let you connect with other PlayStation owners, change system settings or access the PlayStation Store, where you can download new games and buy or rent movies.

You navigate through all this with Sony’s new DualShock 4 controller.

The old ones won’t work.

Know basics to get most from retirement savings plan Your organization’s retirement savings plan holds an important place on your road to retirement.

You should understand the basics of the plan, including how contributions are made.

lar contribution to the retirement plan (up to 6 percent of his pay). If Mike increases his contribution to 6 percent from 4 percent, the impact could be substantial. Over 25 years, by contributing an extra 2 percent each pay period in order to receive the employer’s full match, Mike could potentially end up with an additional $95,231 in retirement savings.

BEST PRACTICES Terry and Aaron Maryniw

A little can potentially mean a lot: The good news is your organization’s retirement savings plan makes it easier to save than you would think. You pick an amount you want to save each pay period, and it’s contributed to the retirement plan on your behalf. Even if you already are saving, increasing your contributions by just 1 percent of your income can help you work toward your retirement savings goals.

Catch-up contributions: If you’re age 50 or older by the end of the calendar year, you can make catch-up contributions over specified annual IRS or retirement plan limits, up to a certain dollar amount. For 2013 and 2014, in addition to contributing the lesser of the IRS limit of $17,500 or the amount limited by your organization’s retirement savings plan,

you can contribute an extra $5,500.

Step ahead: Employees can choose to increase the amount they contribute each year to their organization’s retirement savings plan.

Evaluate where you stand and how much you may need: Once you’ve reviewed your organization’s retirement savings plan, take a closer look at where you stand today – plus your goals for retirement. If you would prefer to have a calculator do the work for you online, most providers will provide a calculator and worksheet for your convenience.

Impact on your take-home pay: A common misconception many people have is that they don’t earn enough to start saving for retirement. But small changes in your budget may allow you to increase your contributions by 1, 2 or 3 percent. If you can’t afford to contribute as much as you would like right away, don’t worry. You can opt to increase the rate at which you save in the future.

Take advantage of your employer’s match: Let’s use Mike as a hypo-

Why it may pay to invest for the long term: When you sell an invest-

thetical example. Mike currently is contributing 4 percent of his salary. His employer kicks in an additional 50 percent for every dol-

ment option and get out of the market, you can increase your chances of missing market movements that signal the start of a longer recovery.

Many of these major upside moves can happen quickly, often in just a few days. To avoid missing these key days, you may want to consider staying invested and avoid panic selling.

Let’s look at the hypothetical example of John and Sue, two investors who reacted differently to downturns in the market.

Both John and Sue invested $10,000 in the S&P on Jan. 1, 1992. John stayed invested, even when the markets fell. By the end of 2011, his investments had grown to $44,997, with an average annual return of 7.81 percent.

Sue, on the other hand, occasionally panicked and sold her investments, causing her to miss the 10 best trading days over the same 20-year period. As a result, her investments grew only 4.13 percent annually to $22,466. By missing just those 10 best days, Sue missed out on almost $23,000.

• PLAYSTATION 4 The college is committed to training both traditional and returning adult students to operate and maintain new technology, but Zaccagnini said more younger students are flocking to manufacturing, a trend local companies should be excited about.

“It used to be 80 [percent] returning adults and 20 [percent] traditional students in the manufacturing program,” she said.

“Now it’s closer to 50/50.”

Part of that is due to the college’s work with local high schools in Woodstock and Johnsburg, which have programs that teach manufacturing and funnel students to the college.

It’s an effort from the high school level to the business level to develop skilled workers and keep them in McHenry County, Falco said.

“With the manufacturers, they want [skilled workers] to stay in the county,” Falco said. “They don’t want them to leave.

They are looking for a skilled workforce right here.”

Continued from page E1 Like previous controllers, DualShock 4 offers vibration and motion sensing.

It now has a clickable touchpad, as well. What it does will vary from game to game. In “Killzone: Shadow Fall,” for example, it’s used to send orders to a combat drone. The top of the controller also has a light bar that changes color to indicate player status. In “Killzone,” red means your character is close to death.

The DualShock 4’s Options button is pretty much the same as the old Start button, pausing the action so you can access in-game menus. The old Select button has been replaced by Share, which allows you to post screenshots and videos on social networks, or even broadcast your game play on the Ustream and Twitch video platforms.

A barebones headset that comes with the system lets you navigate menus by voice command. The DualShock 4 also has a built-in speaker that plays some in-

generic first-person shooter, with humans battling the dictatorial alien Helghast for control of a divided planet.

But wow, is it beautiful, from its vast, breathtaking landscapes to the finely tooled details of individual firearms.

The visual boost becomes more apparent when you compare some PlayStation 4 launch titles with their counterparts on the PS3: • In Ubisoft’s “Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag,” you can see the wind billowing the sails of your pirate ship.

• In 2K Sports’ “NBA 2K14,” you can read LeBron James’ tattoos and see individual beads of sweat of his forehead.

• The new technology allows Electronic Arts’ “Battlefield 4” to bump online combat engagements from 24 players to as many as 64.

Granted, there’s more to great games than slick graphics, and it remains to be seen what designers will come up with once they learn how to harness all that power under the PlayStation 4’s hood.

But Sony’s off to a good start, planting its flag firmly as the battle for dominance in the living room renews.

game audio.

The console itself is built around computer processing and graphics processing units custom-built by Advanced Micro Devices Inc. Sony says the PlayStation 4 has 10 times the processing power of the PS3. That should translate into higher screen resolution (up to 1080p) and faster frame rates (up to 60 frames per second), meaning more detailed environments, more realistic lighting, smoother animation and huge online multiplayer matches.

Developers say the new hardware is much easier to design for than the idiosyncratic “Cell” architecture used in the PlayStation 3.

On the plus side, that means developers should be able to exploit the PS4’s power more quickly. The drawback is that you can’t play any of your PS3 games on the new machine.

It won’t be a deal breaker for many gamers, who won’t be getting PS4 to play 4-year-old games anyway.

“Killzone,” from Sony’s Amsterdam-based Guerrilla Games studio, shows off the new technology most impressively. Purely from a gameplay perspective, it’s a fairly

• GAP

nization’s retirement savings plan.

For many people, a good place to start is to reduce what they pay in interest – that is, the cost of borrowing. Then those savings can be put toward contributing more for retirement. Here are some ideas for better budgeting when it comes to borrowing: • Pay off your highest-interest debt (such as credit cards) first. If you don’t, you will end up paying a lot more in interest for everything you buy.

• Pay cash whenever you can. If you need to use credit cards, look for the best rates available. And charge only what you can afford to pay off each month.

• If possible, avoid incurring new debts.

Unemployment benefit applications dip to 339K WASHINGTON – The number of people applying for U.S. unemployment benefits slipped 2,000 last week to a seasonally adjusted 339,000, the fifth straight decline that shows businesses see little need to cut jobs.

The Labor Department said Thursday the less volatile four-week average fell 5,750 to 344,000. The average has dropped 11 percent in the past year.

Applications are a proxy for layoffs. They have fallen back near pre-recession levels this month after spiking in early October because of the partial government shutdown and processing backlogs in California. The steady declines are the latest sign companies are firing fewer workers.

U.S. trade deficit widens 8 percent in September WASHINGTON – The U.S. trade deficit widened in September as imports increased to the highest level in 10 months while exports slipped. The wider gap suggests growth was somewhat slower over the summer

than previously estimated.

The deficit increased to $41.8 billion, up 8 percent from August, the Commerce Department said Thursday.

It was the largest trade gap since May and marked the third straight month the deficit has risen since hitting a four-year low in June.

Exports, which hit a record high in June, slipped for the third straight month, dipping 0.2 percent to $188.9 billion.

Sales of commercial aircraft and autos both declined. Imports rose 1.2 percent to $230.7 billion, the highest level since November.

The deficit with China hit an all-time high of $30.5 billion.

The overall economy grew at an annual rate of 2.8 percent in the July-September quarter. An improving trade deficit contributed 0.3 percentage point to growth during that period.

But Thursday’s report shows that exports rose at a slower pace than the government estimated when it issued its report on third-quarter growth last week.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

Victor Mollo wrote humorous stories featuring his “menagerie” of bridge players. When he died in 1987, everyone assumed that would be that. However, many unpublished articles have been found among his papers.

These are being put into four books. “The Hog Takes to Precision” came out in 2011, “Diamonds Are the Hog’s Best Friend” appeared this year, and stay tuned for the other two. All are published

by Master Point Press.

The Rueful Rabbit is a poor player who always lands on his feet. This deal is a typical example. North has a problem over two notrump. He might pass; or he could respond three clubs, Stayman, planning on either bidding four hearts if a 4-4 it is disclosed, or settling for three no-trump and hoping the diamonds run.

In this auction, NorthSouth had agreed to use transfer bids, but North forgot. So he assumed South’s threeheart rebid indicated length in that suit.

Against four hearts, West led the spade king (luckily not a trump). The Rueful Rabbit ruffed in the dummy, played a

diamond to his ace, trumped another spade, returned to the diamond king, ruffed a third spade, and took two club tricks ending on the board.

After a brief pause, R.R. trumped a diamond with his heart jack. West had to discard a spade. Then a fourth spade ruff was followed by another diamond. With this coup en passant, East could not stop South from scoring his heart king. Four hearts bid and made!

If you have never read any of these stories, start with the original book, “Bridge in the Menagerie.”

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - A chance to make a difference will brighten your world and give you hope for future opportunities.

Your capability and potential will draw positive attention and create quite a stir. Follow your instincts and enjoy the journey.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- A work-related matter will create uncertainty. Don’t doubt your performance or your status. Stand behind your convictions and work diligently to reach your goal.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Work toward personal accomplishments today. Strive to be your best and to take care of what’s most important to you. Make a change if it will alleviate tension.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can play the game with finesse. Each move you make will get you closer to your chosen destination. If you believe in your ability and skill, so will everyone else.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Don’t rely on someone else to finish what you started. You must take ownership of your responsibilities so you can move on to the things you enjoy doing most.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- There is money to be made if you put your ideas into action. What you launch now will take everyone by surprise, leaving an excellent impression and an impact on future possibilities.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Procrastination will lead you in unproductive circles. Make a choice and stick to it before someone complains or takes over. A practical approach will be your best recourse.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Taking part in a project, activity or event will broaden your outlook and your friendships. You’ll draw interest from someone very different from you. Enjoy collaborating with others.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Look at the bright side, whatever transpires today. Being adaptable will help you find solutions as you go along. Guard against foolish mishaps or misunderstandings.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Don’t be afraid to voice your opinion or take on a daunting challenge. If you play to win, you will succeed.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You need a diversion.

Look for an interesting way to spend your day. If you interact with people from different backgrounds, you will be enriched by the information you gather.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Question anyone asking for money or help. A snap decision regarding such matters will result in loss. Honest conversation will allow you to offer reasonable solutions. Charity begins at home.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Keep your emotions under control. Overreacting will make matters worse.

Listen attentively, but don’t meddle or make promises that you’ll regret. Face facts and make needed changes.
