50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ASSASSINATION OF JOHN F. KENNEDY

Recalling JFK’s death

Closing arguments set in murder case

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A series of short, grainy videos retrieved from Robert Signorile’s cellphone were some of the last pieces of evidence presented by the state before resting its first-degree murder case Thursday against the Huntley man.

The videos were recorded a month before Michelle Mathieu’s death March 24, 2012.

In the clips, Signorile, 44, can be heard asking Mathieu how she got injured, saying “all those bruises are from alcohol, aren’t they?”

Robert “ N o , b e c a u s e Signorile you beat the [expletive] outta me,” she responded.

Prosecutors also presented pictures pulled from Signorile’s phone. The photos were taken hours before authorities were called to their Sun City Huntley home.

In one, Mathieu was face down on the floor and covered in a robe.

It was the same position paramedics previously testified that they found her in.

An autopsy revealed that Mathieu died from a closed head injury caused by blunt force trauma. She had bruising on her body, fractured ribs, a broken back and head trauma that required emergency brain surgery.

Assistant Public Defender Angelo Mourelatos has said Mathieu was an alcoholic who suffered

50 years later, area residents remember a day that shaped history

John F. Kennedy in 1963

It was Nov. 22, 1963, and President John F. Kennedy had just been shot.

William Bolger had been heading back to the office for a meeting when someone stopped him and called him into the house to watch the reports com-

ing in on TV. Bolger, who had attended the Democratic convention that nominated Kennedy and later, the inauguration, went on to his meeting.

“I felt it was all out of place,” he said, adding that when he heard the news, he felt “great sorrow because [I] felt he was such a great man.”

The student union at Northern Illinois University was packed. Some people were crying. Others were staring at the TVs in stunned silence.

Nancy Fike and Craig Pfannkuche were in that student union. Neither knew each other at the time, but they would

Unions plan ‘emergency call-in days’ to lobby lawmakers

By KERRY LESTER The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – As legislative leaders met Thursday to develop a plan to deal with Illinois’ $100 billion pension crisis, the state’s biggest public employee unions were planning a concerted lobbying push to oppose it.

The “We are One Coalition,” which represents the state’s major public employee unions, alerted members this week about “emergency call-in days” next week and on Dec. 2-3.

Members were being asked to call lawmakers and urge them to vote against pension bills that don’t have union support. The coalition also said

LOCALLY SPEAKING

that members plan to visit the offices of “persuadable” lawmakers across the state for “a vigorous grassroots lobbying effort” with as many union members and retirees in attendance as possible.

Legislative leaders spoke via conference call Thursday to firm up a plan that could save close to $150

billion over 30 years. They said they had made progress and plan to meet at least once more before a possible special legislative session that would likely start Dec. 3.

“Points of agreement have progressed to the stage that we are consulting our caucus,” said Rikeesha Phelon, the spokeswoman for Dem-

ocratic Senate President John Cullerton.

The legislative leaders’ work builds off a framework developed by a bipartisan pension committee that would have saved $138 billion over 30 years.

6K Arizona child abuse reports not investigated

By BOB CHRISTIE The Associated Press PHOENIX – About 6,000 cases of suspected child abuse or neglect that were reported to a statewide Arizona hotline over the past four years were never investigated, officials disclosed Thursday, calling it reason for “grave alarm.”

A team at Arizona’s Child Protective Services agency improperly designated the cases “N.I.” – meaning “Not Investigated” – to help manage the heavy workload and focus on the most severe cases, said Clarence Carter, chief of the state’s child welfare system.

Under state law, all reports generated via the hotline must be investigated, Carter said.

All the cases will be reviewed, officials said. At least

125 cases already have been identified in which children were later alleged to have been abused, they said.

“I don’t know of any fatalities,” Gregory McKay, the agency’s chief of child welfare investigations, said of the botched cases.

No one has been disciplined, but Arizona’s Department of Public Safety will investigate.

“There must be accountability in this matter, and I will insist on further reforms to make sure that it cannot happen again,” Gov. Jan Brewer said.

The practice of misclassifying the cases and essentially closing them started in 2009, Carter said. The number rapidly escalated in the past 20 months as caseloads increased and other changes were made, and 5,000 of the

6,000 cases happened in that time, he said.

“The idea that there are 6,000 cases where we don’t know whether or not children are safe, that’s cause for grave alarm,” said Carter, who as director of Arizona’s Department of Economic Security oversees CPS and other social welfare agencies.

CPS has been one of the governor’s major priorities and has suffered from understaffing and major increases in abuse reports and workloads in recent years. Brewer got approval from the Legislature in January for emergency funding for 50 new caseworkers and regular funding for 150 more in the budget year that began July 1.

In a statement, the governor called the mishandling of the cases “absolutely unacceptable.”

“The most urgent priority is to ensure that each one of the children involved in these cases is safe,” Brewer said.

“Every case must be investigated — no exceptions, no excuses. It is not only the right thing, but it is the law.”

The head of an Arizona child advocacy organization said the mishandling of the reports was just part of a whole list of problems at the agency.

“This reconfirms what we’ve already known about the system, which is that it is overwhelmed and can’t function appropriately,” said Dana Naimark, who leads the Children’s Action Alliance.

“It needs revamping and needs more resources.”

Naimark said that among other things, 10,000 current cases haven’t been addressed within the 60-day time limit.

UK police: 3 women held captive for 30 years

By CASSANDRA VINOGRAD The Associated Press LONDON – Three women have been freed after spending 30 years held captive in a south London home, including one woman believed to have spent her entire life in domestic slavery, police announced Thursday.

London’s Metropolitan Police spoke about the rescues after two people – a man and a woman, both 67 – were arrested early Thursday on suspicion of forced labor and domestic servitude.

The arrests came as part of a slavery investigation launched after one of the women contacted a charity in

Your Home and Your Future

October to say she was being held against her will along with two others. The charity went to the police, the force said.

Those freed on Oct. 25 are a 69-year-old Malaysian woman, a 57-year-old Irish woman and a 30-year-old British woman, police said.

Kevin Hyland, head of the Metropolitan Police’s human trafficking unit, said the women are “highly traumatized” having had “no real exposure to the outside world” for the past 30 years.

“Trying to find out exactly what has happened over three decades will understandably take some time,” he said.

Police initially said they

did not believe any of the victims were related. Later, however, they appeared to backtrack, saying the relationship between the three women is part of the investigation and they will not speculate on it.

The force also said there is no evidence to suggest anything of a sexual nature – but cautioned that the investigation is still not finished.

Police would not speculate on any motivation, name the suspects’ nationalities or say if the suspects were a couple.

The revelations raised numerous questions – all still unanswered – about how the women’s ordeal began and why it endured for so long.

What brought them to Lon-

don? What freedoms – if any – did they have? What restrictions and conditions were they subject to? Did neighbors ever see them, or did they ever try to escape?

The women – whose names have not been released – are now safe at an undisclosed location in Britain and have been working with severe trauma experts since their rescue, Hyland said.

It is not known how the women ended up in the house.

The 30-year-old, who would have had to either been born in the home or enter it as an infant given the police timeline, appears to have been held in domestic servitude for her entire life, police said.

SALISBURY, Mass. – Kittens doing the potty dance at a Salisbury shelter had good reason.

Officials at the Merrimack River Feline Rescue Society say someone stole the shelter’s entire supply of kitty litter over the weekend. Liz Pease, director of operations, said five or six 40-pound bags of wood pellets, which are used as kitty litter, stored in the shelter’s unlocked shed behind the main building were taken. The bags cost about $6 each. Pease told The Daily News of Newburyport that she suspects someone stole the wood pellets to heat their home.

FEMA teams start work after tornadoes Supporters of Ill. term limits halfway to ballot

By DAVID MERCER

The Associated Press

The ASSOCIATED PRESS EVANSTON – A group pushing to establish term limits for Illinois lawmakers said Thursday it’s more than halfway to its goal of putting the measure on the 2014 ballot.

The Committee for Legislative Reform and Term Limits announced it has gathered more than 150,000 of the nearly 300,000 petition signatures needed to get on the ballot next November.

The proposed constitutional amendment would limit legislators to eight years in office. It also would cut the size of the Senate from 59 members to 41, expand the House from 118 to 123 members and make it tougher for the Legislature to override a governor’s veto.

The issue could help Republicans next fall by motivating voters who are fed up with Illinois’ Democrat-controlled state government to go to the polls.

And it could particularly

benefit Bruce Rauner, a GOP candidate for governor who also is chairman of the term limits political action committee.

The wealthy businessman from Winnetka – the only political newcomer in the Republican primary – is using the term limits campaign to help boost his visibility and reinforce his message that it’s time to “take back Springfield” by getting rid of career politicians.

Rauner faces three opponents in the March primary: state Sens. Bill Brady and Kirk Dillard and state Treasurer Dan Rutherford. The winner will take on Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn.

In an emailed statement, Rauner said the term limits effort is “gaining serious momentum.” The committee says it collected more than 77,000 signatures in the first three weeks of November – more than in September and October combined.

Judge will not imprison ex-Crestwood officials

By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press CHICAGO – A federal judge Thursday pointed the finger of blame directly at an uncharged ex-mayor as she declined to imprison two former water officials for lying about mixing tainted well water into Crestwood’s drinking supply.

Judge Joan Gottschall sentenced both Theresa Neubauer, 55, and Frank Scaccia, 61, to two years’ probation – also ordering Neubauer to do 200 hours of community service and placing Scaccia under six months of home confinement.

In deciding not imprison the former Crestwood officials, the judge said prison time would have hastened the ailing Scaccia’s death, and she called Neubauer “a low-level soldier” in a scheme led by then-Mayor Chester Stranczek.

The former mayor, she went on, was a “charlatan” and an “evil genius” who ordered subordinates, including Neubauer and Scaccia, to mix contaminated well water with cleaner but pricier lake water so he could brag to voters about keeping water rates low.

Stranczek’s own deteriorating health made it impossible to ever even file charges against him, Judge Gottschall and prosecutors told Thursday’s hearing.

“So, I’m left to do justice the best I can,” Gottschall said, explaining her sentence to a courtroom crowded with relatives of the defendants and residents of the Crestwood.

There’s no telephone listing for Stranczek in Crestwood. His former attorney says he no longer represents Stranczek. In one of his few public comments on the matter in 2009, Stranczek said, “I’ve never been accused of do-

ing something wrong.”

Officials in the 11,000-resident village mixed the contaminated water with water from Lake Michigan from 1982 until the allegations arose in 2008. They kept pumping the polluted water even after environmental officials warned in the mid-1980s that chemicals had oozed into the well, prosecutors said.

Gottschall said the objective was to ensure the mayor would be “perpetually elected” by citing his alleged credentials as a fiscal conservative.

By drawing the well water, they saved around $400,000 annually, prosecutors have said.

Before the judge announced the sentence, Neubauer apologized to the residents of Crestwood in a brief statement. But she added that she never had an inkling that the well water might be contaminated.

Scaccia echoed that in his own statement, “I never realized there [was a health threat]. ... I drank the water. I still drink the water.”

Neubauer’s lawyers have also argued for years that she was made to take the fall for Stranczek.

Neubauer, who had also served as Crestwood’s police chief, was found guilty of making false statements to environmental regulators. Each of the 11 counts carried a maximum five-year prison term.

Scaccia had pleaded guilty to one count of engaging in a false-statement scheme. He also faced a maximum prison term of up to five years.

Prosecutors at Neubauer’s trial did not directly raise the issue of how contaminated the well water was and whether it made residents sick, saying conclusive finding were difficult, in part because of poor testing by the village over the decades.

CHAMPAIGN – As federal storm damage assessors started working across Illinois on Thursday, state officials revised the number of homes destroyed or damaged by the weekend’s tornadoes upward to at least 1,500.

Residents of hard-hit towns also started shuttling hundreds of tons of debris out of the neighborhoods Thursday.

But there were small signs of normal life that emerged: Some schools in the small central Illinois city of Washington reopened Thursday.

Federal Emergency Management Agency workers fanned out in Washington, eastern Illinois’ Gifford, Brookport in southern Illinois along the Ohio River and Coal City south of Joliet, Illinois Emergency Management Agency Director Jonathon Monken said.

ServiceMaster restoration tech Tabatha Parnham looks over the damage Thursday as she tries to salvage anything from a tornado-damaged home in Pekin.

Four of the 22 tornadoes officials now say touched down across the state badly damaged those towns; six people died.

As Monken walked through one neighborhood in Washington, he said it’s safe to say thousands of tons of what used to be homes will eventually be hauled away.

“Looking all around me, the debris mission is going

to go on for a very, very long time,” he said.

But by the end of the weekend, he added, state official should have a better idea of how much damage FEMA is tallying, information needed to seek federal disaster assistance.

James Dunnan, the superintendent of Washington Community High School District 308, said several of

the town’s eight schools, including the high school, reopened Thursday.

About two-thirds of the high school’s 1,175 students and most of its teachers and staff returned to Washington Community High School just to get back in the building, see each other and, if need be, talk to counselors, Dunnan said.

“It’s just kind of a re-entry, a first step forward,” he said. “The students and staff that are here I think are grateful to be back in here.”

Schools were also starting to tackle logistical problems.

Though many buildings weren’t damaged by the tornado and the high school has full water and electricity, a number students lost homes.

“We’ve found out today that we have several families living in a hotel in East Peoria,” he said. “We will probably make bus transportation arrangements to go over there and pick those students up.”

Karzai: Sign U.S.-Afghan security pact next year

By PATRICK QUINN The Associated Press KABUL, Afghanistan – President Hamid Karzai urged tribal elders Thursday to approve a security pact with Washington that could keep thousands of U.S. troops in Afghanistan until 2024, but he added a wrinkle that he prefers his successor sign the document after elections next April.

Karzai’s move could be

an attempt to avoid taking personal responsibility for an agreement that many Afghans see as selling out to foreign interests.

His remarks to the 2,500 members of the consultative council known as the Loya Jirga came as President Barack Obama made a personal plea for quick passage of the agreement in a letter promising to respect Afghanistan’s sovereignty and only raid homes when U.S. lives are at risk.

The Loya Jirga is widely expected to approve the agreement, and Karzai’s remarks could be seen as a last-minute move to force the gathering to ask him to sign the long-delayed accord – thus shifting the responsibility for the deal away from him to the elders.

The White House urged that the security pact be signed by the end of the year, with spokesman Josh Earnest saying a failure to final-

ize an agreement in the coming weeks “would prevent the United States and our allies from being able to plan for a post-2014 presence” in Afghanistan.

Military leaders in the U.S. and NATO widely acknowledge that the nearly 350,000-member Afghan National Security Forces are not yet ready to take on the Taliban alone after a war that has lasted more than 12 years.

The Afghan forces, however,

have held their ground this summer after taking control of security around the country from foreign forces.

Senior U.S. military officials have repeatedly stressed that Afghan forces still need at least three to four years of training and mentoring to take on a resilient Taliban insurgency that shows no sign of abating or compromising.

U.S.-backed attempts to start peace talks with the Taliban have failed so far.

If there is no security deal, the U.S. has said it will pull all its forces out of Afghanistan, as it did when Iraq failed to sign a similar agreement.

Washington’s allies have also said they will not remain without a U.S. presence, and the exit of all foreign forces would jeopardize the more than $8 billion that has been pledged annually to fund Afghan security forces and help with the country’s development after 2014.

Dow average closes above 16K for 1st time The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – The Dow Jones industrial average finished above 16,000 for the first time Thursday as the blue-chip index races toward its best performance in a decade.

The Dow has been on fire lately, propelled higher by a combination of solid corporate earnings, a steadily strengthening economy and easy-money policies from the Federal Reserve.

Since the start of the year, the Dow is up 22 percent and has now topped three 1,000-point milestones in 10 months. It eclipsed 14,000 in February and 15,000 in May. If it holds onto its gains, it would notch its strongest performance since 2003.

“The market has come a long way,” said Dan Seiver, an economist at San Diego State University. “It’s a sign of just how far financial markets have recovered.”

Carlos Flores holds a copy of the Dallas Morning News on Thursday as crews finish up street work on Dealey Plaza in Dallas. Loose gatherings of the curious and conspiracy-minded at Dealey Plaza have marked past anniversaries of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. But for the 50th anniversary, the city of Dallas has planned a solemn ceremony Friday in the plaza Kennedy was passing through when shots rang out.

There will be brief remarks by the mayor and the tolling of church bells.

Solemn events to mark JFK’s death

By JAMIE STENGLE The Associated Press DALLAS – Loose gatherings of the curious and conspiracy-minded at Dallas’ Dealey Plaza have marked past anniversaries of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, featuring everything from makeshift memorials to marching drummers to discussions about who else might have been in on the killing.

But in the place where the president’s motorcade passed through and shots rang out on Nov. 22, 1963, a solemn ceremony on the 50th anniversary of his death designed to avoid such distractions will include brief remarks by the mayor and the tolling of church bells.

It’s an approach that will be mirrored Friday in Boston, where the JFK Library and Museum will open a small exhibit of never-before-displayed items from Kennedy’s state funeral and host a musical tribute that will be closed to the public, and in Washington, where President Barack Obama will meet privately at

the White House with leaders and volunteers from the Kennedy-established Peace Corps program.

“It’s 50 years later and it’s also a moment to look forward to the future,” said Thomas Putnam, executive director of the library, which usually doesn’t observe the anniversary. “We want our tone to be respectful and we want it to have a certain reverence, but we also want it to be hopeful and end on this notion of what JFK stood for.”

The committee convened by current Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings to plan the city’s event wanted to focus “in a positive way more on the legacy of President Kennedy,” said Ron Kirk, a former mayor and member of the panel.

About 5,000 tickets were issued for the free ceremony in Dealey Plaza, which is flanked by the Texas School Book Depository building where sniper Lee Harvey Oswald perched on the sixth floor in 1963.

Friday’s event will include readings from the president’s speeches by author David Mc-

Cullough. In a nod to Kennedy’s military service, the U.S. Naval Academy Men’s Glee Club will perform and there will be an Air Force flyover. A moment of silence will be held at 12:30 p.m., when the president was shot.

There was no shortage of events in Dallas this year marking the anniversary, including panels with journalists and others who witnessed the events of the day, special concerts and museum exhibits.

As press aide for Texas Gov. John Connally, Julian Read was in a media bus several vehicles behind the presidential limousine. After the gunshots, he watched as the vehicle carrying the president and wounded governor sped away.

Read released a book this year recounting his experience and has attended several of the events, which he called cathartic.

“Even though there are all those melancholy thoughts, the way it’s shaping up ... gives me more of a comfort than any time since 1963,” said Read, who will return to Dealey Pla-

Democrats vote to curb filibusters on appointees

za on Friday.

John Judge, executive director of the Coalition on Political Assassinations, first came to Dealey Plaza to mark the fifth anniversary of JFK’s death in 1968.

Judge’s group, which believes Kennedy’s death was part of a conspiracy, usually gathers on the plaza’s “grassy knoll” for a moment of silence at 12:30 p.m. Since it’ll be blocked off this year, Judge says he’s reached a “livable” agreement with the city in which they’ll gather a few blocks away and move to the plaza after the official ceremony ends.

The group has made T-shirts for the occasion with the slogan, “50 years in denial is enough” and an image like that of Kennedy on the half-dollar coin, except with a bullet hole in his head and blood.

“It was meant to be shocking because we think that not solving his murder was shocking,” Judge said. He added about 10 members of his group will attend the official ceremony.

Back then, the country was in the worst downturn since the Great Depression, the housing market had collapsed and individual investors had abandoned stocks.

Now, with the economy recovering and confidence returning, small investors are coming back in.

“People are getting out of bonds into stocks,” said Steven Ricchiuto, chief economist at Mizuho Securities.

“We’re in the early stages of a recovery.”

The Dow rose 109.17 points, or 0.7 percent, to close at 16,009.99 Thursday. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 14.48 points, or 0.8 percent, to 1,795.85. The Nasdaq composite rose 47.88 points, or 1.2 percent, to 3,969.15.

In a sign that investors are taking on more risk, small-company stocks rose at a much faster pace than the rest of the market. The Russell 2000 index jumped 19.83 points, or 1.8 percent, to 1,119.62.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Sweeping aside a century of precedent, Democrats took a chunk out of the Senate’s hallowed filibuster tradition on Thursday and cleared the way for speedy confirmation of controversial appointments made by President Barack Obama and chief executives in the future.

Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who orchestrated the change, called the 52-48 vote a blow against gridlock. Republicans warned Democrats will eventually regret their actions once political fortunes are reversed and they can no longer block appointments made by a GOP president.

At the White House, Obama welcomed the shift.

“The gears of government have got to work,” he said, and he declared that Republicans had increasingly used existing rules “as a reckless

and relentless tool to grind all business to a halt.”

But Republicans warned of a power grab by Democrats, some predicting that worse was yet to come. “This drastic move sets a dangerous precedent that could later be expanded to speed passage of expansive and controversial legislation,” said Sen. Richard Shelby of Alabama.

The day’s change involved presidential appointees, not legislation – and not Supreme Court nominees.

The immediate impact was to ensure post-Thanksgiving confirmation for Patricia Millett, one of Obama’s three stalled nominees for the District of Columbia Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals, and for others whom Republicans have blocked. Rep. Mel Watt, D-N.C., tapped to head the Federal Housing Finance Agency, is among them.

Gov’t weighs permitting cellphone calls on planes The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Rules against making cellphone calls during airline flights are “outdated,” and it’s time to change them, federal regulators said Thursday, drawing immediate howls of protest from flight attendants, airline officials and others.

Tom Wheeler, the new chairman of the Federal Communications Commission,

said in a statement that the commission was proposing greater in-flight access to mobile broadband. The proposal will be considered at the commission’s Dec. 12 meeting.

“The time is right to review our outdated and restrictive rules,” Wheeler said, adding that modern technologies can deliver mobile services in the air safely and reliably.

The proposal would also allow passengers to use their

smartphones to send email, text and download data. The proposal would apply to flights when they are over 10,000 feet in altitude, but not during takeoffs and landings.

The move came just 16 days after Wheeler, a former lobbyist for the cellular telephone industry, took over the post of FCC chairman. The proposal to ease cellphone restrictions was greeted enthusiastically by the Telecommunications

Industry Association and the Consumer Electronics Association.

Grant Seiffert, president of the telecommunications trade group, said his members see airline passengers as a new market opportunity.

But the electronics association acknowledged, “Engaging in phone conversations in flight may prove technically feasible, but many may find it socially undesirable.” The

association said it would be willing to work with the airline industry on promoting telephone etiquette on planes.

Reaction from the airline industry and labor unions was skeptical. Flight attendants and others have worried that a plane full of chattering passengers could lead to arguments and undermine safety.

“Passengers overwhelmingly reject cellphone use in the aircraft cabin. The FCC

should not proceed with this proposal,” the Association of Flight Attendants said in a statement in response to the FCC chairman’s comments.

“In far too many operational scenarios, passengers making phone calls could extend beyond a mere nuisance, creating negative effects on aviation safety and security that are great and far too risky,” the flight attendants group said.

Doctors: Injuries were too severe

‘I don’t think anyone should ever forget the events that shape history’

Her injuries could have been caused by a fall, he said.

Nichole LaVanway treated Mathieu in the emergency room at Sherman Hospital on March 18, 2012. She was the third doctor who testified that Mathieu’s injuries were too severe to have been caused by a fall.

In earlier testimony, pathologist Dr. Larry Blum said that had Mathieu fallen, she would have had scrapes or injuries her hands or knees. She did not.

Blum also said Mathieu had fatty liver disease, which can affect reaction time, balance and coordination.

The defense rested before calling a single witness. First attorneys agreed on certain facts, including an earlier trip Mathieu made to the emergency room. She was treated at Sherman Hospital on Oct. 29, 2011, when her blood alcohol level was recorded at a “critical” level, Mourelatos said.

The trial before McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather will continue Friday morning at 9 a.m. with closing arguments.

go on to be McHenry County-based historians – Fike heading up the McHenry County Historical Society and Museum and Pfannkuche teaching history for District 155 and heading several genealogical organizations.

Fike had been on her way to class when she saw the flow of students headed in the opposite direction, she said.

She asked what had happened, and when she heard, she joined the crowd, heading to the student union where there were TVs. “It was the only class I de-

liberately cut,” she said.

Pfannkuche had been waiting for his class to start, he said. At first they didn’t think it was real, making jokes about old-fashioned Barry Goldwater shooting Kennedy with a bow and arrow.

When it became real, he headed to the student union.

“Being historically minded, I wasn’t one of those that was weeping and crying. I was thinking, ‘This is history,’ ” Pfannkuche said.

At the time, McHenry County was “a long way from being one of Illinois’ fastest growing counties,” Fike said.

It had a population of only 84,210, less than a third of

what it has now.

The last of the one-room schoolhouses had just closed, dairy products were the county’s main agricultural product, there were lots of local newspapers, and there were no malls, no McHenry County College and no county health department.

The assassination – which was followed by a series of high-profile assassinations and the Vietnam War protests – seemed to mark a slide into disillusionment for American society, Fike said.

Even though Fike was a Young Republican at the time, she supported Kennedy’s Peace Corps program, even applying for a slot. (She

ended up signing a teaching contract before she heard back.)

“I had that optimism,” Fike said. “The Eisenhower years, even though there was stuff about brinksmanship, it was secure. It was such a nurturing time to grow up in. To have this young handsome president, who was so different from Dwight Eisenhower, I don’t know, he just offered the future.”

Just a few years later, when Pfannkuche was a high school teacher in Amboy, he said the students saw the Kennedy assassination as an “interesting curiosity.”

“They thought is was about as interesting as the

Lincoln assassination,” he said. “They were making all kinds of comparisons. ... They’re looking forward.

Looking back is not an essential part of their being.”

Today, many high school students may not get to the Kennedy assassination in their U.S. history class, Pfannkuche said, adding that history classes should focus more on contemporary history and how it affects current events.

“I don’t think anyone should ever forget the events that shape history,” Fike said. “I certainly think this was one of those events, and I think that it’s important that we’re reminded.”

Cost-cutting elements that will affect the overall savings number are being negotiated • UNIONS Continued from page A1 Among other things, that plan would have replaced the current 3 percent annual compounded cost-of-living increase that retirees receive with one that is equal to half the inflation rate, with a minimum increase of 1 percent and maximum of 4 percent.

The U.S. inflation rate stood at 1 percent last month, according to the Federal Reserve.

The plan also would have

reduced employee contributions by 1 percent – a concession to state employees for other sacrifices that proponents say would allow it to better withstand a certain constitutional challenge.

Cost-cutting elements that will affect the overall savings number are being negotiated, including the structuring of the cost-of-living increase, Phelon said.

Patti Schuh, the spokeswoman for House Republican Leader Christine Radogno, described Thursday’s meeting as “continued productive

discussions,” but cautioned that “these are difficult and complicated issues we don’t just gloss over.”

The unions adamantly oppose the unfinished deal.

They say they weren’t consulted about the plan and that they think elements of it are unconstitutional. Illinois pension problem, deemed the nation’s worst, comes from years of lawmakers shorting or skipping required payments to its pension systems.

“With the leaders behind this scheme, it will take everything we’ve got to stop

it,” the coalition tells union members in its email, which was provided to The Associated Press. “It’s also likely that leaders will unveil their scheme quickly and try to jam it through the House and Senate without enough time for open hearings or public review.”

A top aide to Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan told Illinois lawmakers last week to be ready for a special session in Springfield beginning Dec. 3. Chief of Staff Tim Mapes also asked them to “keep oth-

er days that week available.”

Alerts to other caucuses followed.

But Madigan spokesman Steve Brown said Thursday that a special session wasn’t definite. “We just want to make people aware so they could ask to return and plan accordingly,” he said.

Charlie McBarron of the Illinois Education Association told the AP that lawmakers “will be hearing from us very strongly between now and when they convene and well after that. Our members are highly focused on this.”

Remembering Nov. 22, 1963 It was one man’s life. But it was so much larger.

Fifty years ago, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. It was a Friday, like this one, very early in the afternoon.

You likely know the rest of the details, and the debate that still churns on how exactly the events of that day unfolded.

Kennedy was the fourth For the record president to be assassinated.

Only very rare moments have No president carried the same weight as since has fallen President John F. Kennedy’s to the same fate, death. although Ronald Reagan was shot in an assassination attempt in 1981.

Only very rare moments have carried the same weight as Kennedy’s death.

It’s likely that, if you were alive then, you remember exactly where you were the moment you found out. In those days, long before Twitter, cellphones and 24/7 cable news, not everyone found out promptly.

So it’s likely that your memories of that day also involve first seeing someone, in stunned silence, and attempting to figure out why. If you found out first, you were that person.

Kennedy’s assassination has been called the moment when America’s innocence was lost, because in that moment, an unexpected evil did win.

On Friday, the events of that day will be recounted time and again as remembrances are held from coast to coast, one of the largest taking place in the city where the shooting occurred – Dallas.

What actually happened, who fired all of the shots, why the shots were fired and who the intended target was will continue to be debated.

We likely will never have more clarity on any of those issues.

But they continue to stand in the memories of many Americans as a moment that we hope to never see repeated.

Scrutinize USPS’ Amazon deal Watching the United States Postal Service grope for financial stability is getting a bit creepy.

The latest deal is for Sunday delivery of products sold by online retailer Amazon.com.

The details of the agreement have been sealed with the Postal Regulatory Commission, an independent agency with regulatory oversight over the Postal Service.

Who knows what opportunities UPS or FedEx missed out on with the Postal Service cutting another sweetheart deal with a select retailer.

The Postal Service is still trying to defend its arrangements with Michigan junk mailer Valassis Communications Inc. USPS signed a negotiated service agreement with a primary competitor of newspapers.

That deal offers Valassis direct mail postage discounts up to 36 percent on new advertising mail pieces. That advertising from targeted national retailers previously has been delivered by the private sector as newspaper inserts and to nonsubscribers via the Postal Service.

Once again, the Postal Service is out trolling for business with little consideration of impacts on private-sector interests in the marketplace.

There is no evidence of enhancement from the Postal Service’s business activities, and certainly no accountability.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE District 155 disappoints To the Editor: I sit in profound dismay of District 155 administration’s attempt to take one of the positive components of living in McHenry County and usurp the commitment and efforts of teachers who have spent their lives improving themselves so that they can be better teachers for the betterment of our children.

The system in place has awarded and motivated teachers for academic improvement, achievement and dedication; provided them with a path for personal improvement for the betterment of the children; and sustained a system that motivates performance on a long-term basis. It appears as if the administration has the goal of negation of knowledge and experience that these teachers offer that have allowed these schools to excel so that their students become leading citizens of our community.

I have had the honor of speaking to numerous classes at Prairie Ridge High School, where I have found polite, informed, inquisitive and motivated students who understand the value of an education, appreciate the academic gifts and respect the corps of honest, decent, honorable, intelligent, committed teachers they have had the privilege of learning from.

Look within and justify administrative expenditures. Provide comparisons with other comparable

school district administrations in terms of size, scope and experience. Show equity across the entire spectrum, including teacher education and experience, then can you honestly believe that what has transpired is honest, forthright and fair.

The goal must be the betterment of our children for they too will inherit earth and, someday, we will all follow them.

A model for all To the Editor: As a practicing Catholic, I applaud the Illinois General Assembly’s actions to make same-sex marriage legal in Illinois.

Nothing in this law changes the religious definition of marriage.

Nothing in the law requires a religion to recognize or perform same-sex marriages. The law simply grants equal civil rights to people who have been discriminated against based on their sexual orientation. Our wonderful, enlightened Pope Francis famously declared that even he has no place judging people based on this aspect of their innate character.

The Pope understands that Jesus loves us all, and that we are all God’s children. There is no rational reason to discriminate against people based on race, religion,

Jack Franks and justice?

To the Editor: The recent comments of state Rep. Jack Franks are typical of Illinois elected officials who want to present themselves to readers (voters) as honest, do-what-isright politicians.

Mr. Franks wrote (“My rationale for voting ‘yes’ on marriage equality,” Nov. 13) about why he voted to legalize gay marriage. In that column, he continually mentioned how important it is for people to be treated equally under the laws, as the Constitution so states. He even mentioned the sign above

his office door that reads, “Pursue Thou Justice.”

Funny, isn’t it, that I told Franks long ago about possible corruption involving a state education board and the Chicago Teachers Union and asked for him to pursue justice. Two U.S. Supreme Court decisions have held that teachers/ union members are to be fairly represented by their unions. That isn’t happening in Illinois, and the scam helps to keep union coffers healthy.

Franks told me, “File your own lawsuit, and when you become a pauper then the state can help you.”

If interested, find out how much money Mr. Franks gets each election time from the unions. His comments are designed to dupe readers into believing he isn’t one of those politicians who will say or do whatever they have to do to stay in their cushy jobs.

Another perspective on politics and the Mental Health Board (EDITOR’S NOTE: The Northwest Herald published a clarification regarding Dennis Smith’s pension in Tuesday’s edition.)

By DENNIS G. SMITH Former Mental Health Board Executive Director Your article, “Playing politics on Mental Health,” in Sunday’s Northwest Herald had serious mistakes regarding my pension.

The option to buy additional years that was approved by the Mental Health Board and the County Board never was exercised. There were no costs to the taxpayers. Your article said $28,686.00 of taxpayer funds was spent on this option to fund a higher pension. This is not factual. I chose not to exercise my legal option to increase my pension.

In addition to the pension mistake, you referenced a 1997 meeting

where my board and I were grilled

by County Board Chairwoman Dianne Klemm. The Sept. 27, 1997, article in the Herald begins “It was the McHenry County Mental Health Board’s turn under the county’s financial microscope Friday.” The main issue at the meeting was the fact that the county Board was using funds that were levied for Mental Health services. “There was a 5.4 percent cut last year, and that 5.4 percent cut is still in effect this year.

We’re leaving another $368,000 in county coffers that we’re not using for mental health services,” Finance Committee Chairman Hank Fleming was quoted as saying in the Northwest Herald.

The tone of your article implies that there was something unique about agencies and departments disagreeing with the county over budgetary items. I believe every

Editorial Board: John Rung, Don Bricker, Dan McCaleb, Jason Schaumburg, Kevin Lyons, Jon Styf, Kate Schott, Stacia Hahn

department fought hard for the mission of its respective department.

This often meant disagreements over funding. The article was correct in pointing out that there was a special tension between the Mental Health Board and the county over which agency controlled the funds that were passed by taxpayers for mental health, substance abuse and developmental disabled services. It was the board’s position that these funds could only be used for the above purposes and not for other county government expenses. The revised law and attorney general opinions clarified these boundaries. I am proud that I was one of the individuals that played a role in assuring the taxpayers that the funds would only be spent for the purposes outlined in the law.

The article points out the growth of funds over the years without

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

crediting the staff of the Mental Health Board for winning millions of dollars in completive grants on a state and federal level. The McHenry County Mental Health Board was the only board to receive many of these grants in the state of Illinois. I want to thank the hard work of the staff that made it possible to provide a rich array of services without burdening the local real estate tax.

Finally, you mention a rambling report of excessive administrative expenses. This report was refuted at a public meeting. The standard for administrative expenses for agencies such as the mental health board is between 10 percent and 15 percent. Federal grants require a great deal of administrative expense. There are additional evaluation, research, accounting, reporting and data collecting expenses.

Therefore, when the board has been

the recipient of federal grants, the administrative expenses, although paid for by the grant have gone up.

Now that the board has completed the children’s grant, their administrative expenses should go down.

Mistakes have been made, and the new board is working hard to correct them. Let’s give the new board and new executive director a chance to set a new course. Thousands of people with disabilities have been helped by the generosity of the citizens of this county by passing a referendum for mental health, substance abuse and the developmentally disabled. Let’s not lose sight of the purpose of the board: to plan, regulate, evaluate, develop resources and fund these critically needed services. They need and deserve our support.

Thank you for printing a correction concerning my pension.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

CHECKS MADE ON SEX OFFENDERS The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office said Thursday that all of its registered sex offenders were in compliance during a recent check, according to a news release.

During a sex offender compliance operation from Tuesday through Thursday, all 80 of the office’s registered sex offenders were in compliance with state laws.

The sheriff’s office conducts two random and unannounced compliance checks a year to make sure the registered offenders are providing accurate home addresses, as well as employer and vehicle information. It is a violation of the Illinois Registered Sex Offender Law to not report any change in address or employment.

People who become aware of a sex offender violation are encouraged to call the sheriff’s office at 815-338-2144 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-762-STOP.

MCC board OKs levy freeze But residents could see slight increase in bills; tuition hikes possible Trustees approved a levy freeze that will result in the college collecting the same amount of property tax revenue it did the previous fiscal year – $27.9 million. But because assessed property values are expected to decrease by 3 percent, the rate will still need to increase to make up the difference.

By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The McHenry County College Board of Trustees finalized a property tax levy freeze Thursday, but residents could still see a slight increase in bills because of declining property values.

College estimates show the owner of a $250,000 home would have to pay roughly $6.50 more a year to the institution.

The decision to hold the levy flat could cost the college roughly $545,000 depending on new growth. Money from reserves would be needed to make up the deficit.

Passing on the potential $545,000 this year would cause the revenue to be lost forever as any future levy increase would be building off a base that never captured that new growth and inflation adjustment.

Some trustees had pushed

District 47 middle school students are collecting coins and will give the money to help schools damaged by the tornado that touched down in Washington. As part of their Character Counts program, sixth-graders Adrian Wild (left), 11, and Ben White, 12, collect donations Thursday from classrooms at Bernotas Middle School.

Tornado relief efforts ramp up Several county organizations, schools host fundraisers, donation drives

By LAWERENCE SYNETT lsynett@shawmedia.com Crystal Lake resident Joan Clark thought the tornadoes had missed her sisters and nephew living downstate as she followed the storm coverage Sunday on TV. It wasn’t until a call from her brother-in-law that she learned Washington, near Peoria, had taken a direct hit from a tornado with a preliminary designation of EF-4, the second-strongest rating for tornadoes.

Clark’s two sisters and nephew live within a mile and a half of each other in Washington – three of at least 900 central Illinois homes either destroyed or damaged by the devastating storms that spawned at least 15 tornadoes and killed at least six people.

“I immediately tried to call them when I found out what had happened, and no one answered,” said Clark, who grew up in Metamora, a town just north of Washington that was spared by the devastating storms. “My sister finally texted me back and called a short time later. Everyone was safe, but they lost everything.”

Fifteen counties have state disaster declarations, and Federal Emergency Management Agency workers have begun initial damage assessments.

Clark, a Crystal Lake District 47 middle school teacher, traveled to Washington this week to reconnect with family members affected by the storms and help with recovery efforts.

Algonquin to manage Huntley’s interchange fire alarm monitoring share to be paid by 2015 Fire district transfers ownership to village

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Businesses that pay $80 a month to have wireless fire alarm monitoring through the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District are set to have the service managed by the village.

The fire district is transferring ownership of the alarm-monitoring system to the village in response to a court

ruling from earlier this summer involving another fire district.

Earlier this summer, a federal appeals court in a case involving ADT Security Systems and the Lisle-Woodridge Fire Protection District found that the fire district did not have the statutory authority to own the signaling equipment or to assess fees to maintain the system.

However, there is a prior court decision that suggests it’s lawful for non-home rule municipalities to enforce and charge for fire alarm monitoring systems, according to a

Board authorizes latest installment

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Following a recent ribbon-cutting ceremony, Huntley Village Board members on Thursday continued paying back their portion of the costs for the new $59 million tollway interchange.

The board unanimously authorized to pay the Illinois Tollway Authority $1.65 million of

the village’s $5.65 million total share that helped construct the full-access interchange at Route 47 and Interstate 90.

The village will continue to pay back the Tollway in installments through 2015. The $1.65 million approved Thursday includes $353,514 more than the village’s budgeted amount to the agency this year.

“We thought the higher amount was going to be last year, so we had to revise it,” Village President Chuck Sass said.

BULL VALLEY: PRICING ANNOUNCED

McHENRY COUNTY: STORM CLEANUP

Trial run begins at shared dog park

Two cities to conduct special brush pickups

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com BULL VALLEY – Officials were expecting paws on the ground as early as Thursday evening as the village’s new dog park opened for a late fall trial run.

The city has announced pricing for the park, a joint effort between Bull Valley and

Woodstock located at Country Club and Bull Valley roads.

The official opening is Jan. 1.

“We’re excited to see it open and going,” Bull Valley Trustee Emily Berendt said.

Residents of either municipality can pay $60 a year for up to two dogs, and can pay extra to add up to two more dogs to the permit.

Residents also can choose

to purchase a 10-year charter membership for $500, saving $100 over the course of the membership while steering clear of any price increases.

Only 50 charter memberships will be sold.

Nonresident permits cost $125 a year.

Bull Valley – which is splitting the estimated $25,000 cost of the seven-acre dog park

with neighboring Woodstock – will maintain the park with permit and daily fees, officials have said.

So far, no limit has been set on how many resident or nonresident permits will be sold, Berendt said.

“We will keep going until it starts to look like we need to restrict, if that indeed happens,” she said.

KANE COUNTY: GROUP ALLEGES ‘MISSION DRIFT’

Forest preserve district takes issue with report

By BRENDA SCHORY bschory@shawmedia.com Kane County forest preserves are home to more than trees and trails, offering many options for recreation and education – from the new nature center at LeRoy Oakes near St. Charles to horseback riding at Blackberry Maples near Elburn.

But, according to a study by the Elgin Area League of Women Voters, the forest preserve district suffers from “mission drift.” The study asserts that the district acts more like a park district than a forest preserve district.

“I find that troublesome,” said Carol Grom, League president and chairwoman of the group that did the study. “I am all for having parks and soccer fields, but they do not

belong in a forest preserve. ...

It is not appropriate for land that is ‘preserving nature.’ ” Forest Preserve District President John Hoscheit, of St. Charles, said the League is biased.

“It’s easier to understand where … the group is coming from if you perceive them not to be an independent group,” Hoscheit said. “The basis for the opinion is they don’t want the Longmeadow Parkway Bridge. ... Their mission is to stop the bridge, and in the meantime, try to discredit the forest preserve.”

The group takes to task the possibility of gravel mining in the Brunner Family Forest Preserve in Dundee Township, a 741-acre property purchased in 2008. It was the subject of another League study done in 2012.

Online Several reports on issues regarding the Kane County Forest Preserve District are available on the Elgin Area League of Women Voters website, www.lwvelginarea.org.

Grom disputes Hoscheit’s assertion.

“The bridge was a foregone conclusion,” Grom said. “Our report began from them looking at mining for gravel. That was the instigation for the report, not the parkway.”

She said the district backed away from gravel mining once the league made it an election issue.

The 33-page report, issued earlier this month, asserts that legislation for forest

preserves, enacted in 1913, permitted land acquisition of natural forests for protecting and preserving “flora, fauna and scenic beauties ... to restore, restock, protect, and preserve the natural forests ... as nearly as may be, in their natural state and condition, for the purpose of the education, pleasure, and recreation of the public.”

Voters established the Forest Preserve District of Kane County in 1925 with essentially the same mission.

A 1996 amendment to the state’s forest preserve legislation amended the mission to include recreational and cultural facilities, golf courses, museums, ice rinks, golf courses and tennis courts.

By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Family and friends who have lost loved ones to suicide will come together Saturday on the Woodstock Square to offer support and inspiration in a Day of Remembrance.

The event, held from 5 to 6 p.m., is a joint effort between the McHenry County Crisis Program and Survivors of Suicide Grief Support Group.

It will feature personal stories and poetry as well as an informational gathering

at First United Methodist Church, 201 W. South St. in Woodstock, immediately following the event.

Kelly Strand, co-facilitator of the grief support group, said between 60 and 70 people attended the inaugural event last year and walked away with a stronger sense of hope.

“I hope the event will help people find some hope and healing and inspiration and let them know they are not alone,” Strand said. “It is such a memorable event and it brings a lot of meaning to those in attendance.”

In the event of poor weather, First United Methodist Church will host the event in addition to the post-event fellowship already scheduled.

serving natural areas for the benefits of the people,” Grom said. “It should not be about giving land use away to other organizations.”

Hoscheit said in more urban areas of the county, where there is less forest land to buy because more land is developed, these intergovernmental agreements – including ball fields and a $2 million bridge in Aurora – are a necessity.

“Board members say, ‘I can’t support [a project] or my constituents won’t support it, if it is without investment in these communities,’ ” Hoscheit said.

The $2 million bridge project in Aurora, for example, will connect city property at RiverEdge Park with existing trails in the nearby forest preserve district, Hoscheit said.

Fifth Third Bank Ballpark and the Fox Valley Ice Arena – other uses the League report finds fault with.

Grom said the forest preserve district should be preserving natural areas for everyone’s benefit instead of focusing on programs, services and facilities.

“They’ve lost track of their mission,” said Grom, a Sleepy Hollow resident. “When you have turned forest preserve land into community gardens and athletic fields – they’re never going to be restored to any form of natural land.”

The study also criticized intergovernmental agreements that the forest preserve has throughout the county.

Getting involved in these, Grom said, is not the district’s function.

McHENRY COUNTY: HEALTH SCREENINGS

Mammo Mondays coming up NORTHWEST HERALD McHENRY – Centegra Health System continues to sponsor Mammo Monday events and its U+2 program throughout McHenry County during December.

Offerings include screening mammograms, bone density screenings, free expert bra fittings and light snacks.

Upcoming Mammo Mondays will be from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. at these locations: • Dec. 2 at Centegra Gavers Breast Center • Dec. 9 at Centegra Hospital – McHenry

• Dec. 16 at Centegra Health Center – Huntley • Dec. 23 at Centegra Hospital – Woodstock Centegra’s new breast health program, U+2, rewards women for taking care of their breast health and inspiring their friends to do the same.

To participate in the program, a woman visits centegra.org/u2 to enter a screening mammogram appointment request. She sends two of her closest female friends or family members an encouraging reminder to do the same. She then receives an email voucher to redeem for a free eye pil-

low after her own screening mammogram at a Centegra imaging location.

Quick 30-minute appointments are easy to schedule and are recommended. Walkins are welcome at Centegra Health Center – Huntley and Centegra Gavers Breast Center – Crystal Lake. Physician orders are needed for a mammogram screening and a bone density exam. Patients should bring a physician order to the appointment.

To schedule an appointment, call 815-334-5566 or visit centegra.org/mammo. Financial assistance is available.

Board will discuss tuition rates later • MCC LEVY Continued from page B1 for increasing the levy to try and capture new growth, but were outnumbered 4-3 in previous meetings. The levy was unanimously approved on a consent agenda Thursday.

With a levy freeze, administrators are looking to tuition increases and additional fees as a potential source to make up for lost tax dollars.

Robert Tenuta, chief financial officer for the col-

lege, said McHenry County College ranks as the 24th lowest in the state with tuition prices at $102 per credit hour compared to the $112.75 per credit hour state average.

The maximum the college could charge is $131.15, but Tenuta proposed a 5 percent increase and a infrastructure fee to help cover the $41 million in deferred maintenance the college carries.

“It really forces the college to cover its operating expenses through tuition increases,” Tenuta said of freezing

the levy, noting tuition is the second largest revenue stream.

MCC President Vicky Smith said while cuts are always possible, any budget slashes would start to directly hit departments and programs.

“We have cut any fat that there was in our budgets,” Smith said. “Now all that’s left ... is to cut departments and cut programs.”

The board is expected to discuss tuition rates in future meetings.

Village started to pay Tollway back last year • HUNTLEY Continued from page B1 Huntley started paying back the Tollway last year with an $1.05 million installment. The village’s total share represents 9.05 percent of the project’s costs.

The Tollway, Illinois Department of Transportation, and McHenry and Kane counties also contributed money to the project. Only the state-

wide agencies contributed more money to the project than Huntley.

The Tollway paid $29.5 million (50 percent); IDOT contributed $15.32 million (25.9 percent); Kane County paid $4.97 million (8.42 percent); and McHenry County paid $3.85 million (6.53 percent).

The village’s portion of the interchange costs is paid out of its tollway fund, primarily generated from reserves in its operating budget.

Friday, November 22, 2013 • Page B5

The village has had a busy month with interchange related activities. Village trustees and staff joined state transportation officials and lawmakers for a ribbon-cutting ceremony Nov. 8 that officially opened the new interchange to traffic.

Officials will now look to fill more than 300 acres around the interchange zone for commercial and industrial use, as they look to bolster Huntley’s business sector.

No change planned to fire alarm costs • ALGONQUIN Continued from page B1 memo written by Village Manager Tim Schloneger.

Algonquin has an ordinance requiring all commercial properties in the village to make a direct connection to the wireless monitoring system.

“There is not a case directly on point upholding the validity of a municipality mandating a direct connection to a municipal system and we can only assume that the private alarm companies, now coming off a win against fire districts, may pursue similar municipal systems,” Schloneger wrote.

“There is more of an argu-

ment that can be made supporting a municipal system as it falls within not only home rule powers, but also statutory and health, safety welfare powers,” he added.

The district charges $80 a month for fire alarm monitoring, Fire Chief Patrick Mullen said.

Schloneger said the only change for fire alarm customers is that bills will now come from the village rather than the fire district. Costs should stay the same.

The fire district maintains and operates 441 radio fire alarm transmitters, according to Mullen.

Of those, 279 are within Algonquin. The rest are businesses and multifamily properties that voluntarily

joined the network in Barrington Hills, Cary, Huntley and Lake in the Hills.

Pending approval from the fire district board, which is scheduled to vote Tuesday on the matter, the official transfer is set to take place Dec. 1, said Mike Kumbera, assistant to the village manager.

Kumbera added the village will use revenues from fire alarm monitoring as an enterprise fund, where fees will be set at a level to offset the cost of operating the system, which includes equipment purchases and replacement.

As part of the switchover, SEECOM will continue to perform the monitoring and dispatching services on the alarms.

Several local schools involved in tornado relief fundraising efforts • TORNADO Continued from page B1 with other family members in the area, spending most of their time salvaging items from the rubble that was once their homes.

A website has been created for the families at www.youcaring.com. Search “Help the Faklaris and Briney families rebuild!” to donate.

The fundraising effort is one of many taking place statewide to aid tornado victims. In McHenry County, several opportunities are available for residents to donate.

Three District 47 middle schools are collecting coins in each homeroom until holiday break to raise money for recovery efforts. The homerooms that raise the most money will be rewarded with pizza parties, and the money will go directly to helping those in need.

The response from students has been positive, collecting as much as $200 in one day, said Lori Sorensen, principal at Bernotas Middle School.

“We are off [school] most of next week and wanted to do something quickly,” Sorensen said. “We would have done something regardless, but having a personal connection hits home for all of us.”

The Spanish Club and Spanish National Honor Society at Prairie Ridge High School in Crystal Lake hosted an event Wednesday similar to the Amazing Race. The Crystal Lake District 155 high school raised about $1,025 that will be donated to relief efforts.

The Gator Link Crew at Crystal Lake South High School is hosting a bake sale Dec. 7 to raise money for the tornado victims. The event will be from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the school, 1200 S. McHen-

ry Ave., during the “Day of Hoops.”

The proceeds will be donated to Clark’s extended family.

The Salvation Army of McHenry County is accepting monetary donations that will directly go to help those in need in Washington.

The nonprofit is not asking for items to be donated because of the travel distance to Washington, which is about 155 miles from Crystal Lake.

The group also has staff members helping in the affected areas.

“We are collecting donations so the money can be used in real-time for what their greatest needs are,” said Linda Hunter-West, spokeswoman for the organization.

“The money is really going to be put toward what the needs are at this particular moment.”

Donations can be dropped off at the Crystal Lake office, 290 W. Crystal Lake Ave., or online at www.salarmychicago.org/mchenry.

Besides accepting donations, several other organizations and schools are collecting items to send to the Washington area.

Chesak Elementary School in Huntley District 158 is collecting donations of essential items for everyday needs to help with rebuilding efforts, including gift cards. One of the teachers at the school has family members who were affected by the tornadoes, and she will be traveling there this weekend to help with cleanup efforts and to deliver the donations.

Students and staff at Marlowe Middle School and Huntley High School are collecting donations of clothing, personal hygiene items and cleaning supplies that will be delivered to the Washington area this weekend by a Huntley High School student and her family.

The Spring Grove Fire Pro-

tection District will also be sending firefighters down to the Washington area to deliver supplies.

Crews are accepting bottled water, gently used clothing, blankets and nonperishable food items at the station, at 8214 Richardson Road.

“We’re trying to collect as many items as we can,” Lt. Kevin Young said. “One of our guys has a contact at their fire department, and we want to help.”

Two Wauconda women without any ties to the devastation are accepting donations from 5 to 9 p.m. Friday at Boehmer Automotive, 416 W. Liberty St., Wauconda.

The friends are looking for garbage cans, rakes, shovels, nonperishable food items, cleaning supplies, toiletries and pet items, among other things.

They plan on heading to Washington to deliver the items Sunday.

“They have been totally wiped out down there,” Pam Blake said. “That is why we will take any and everything.”

For information, call 815509-7704.

Two McHenry women are collecting donations for those affected by the storms.

Chrissy Riemann and Cindy Gottstein are collecting toothbrushes, trial size toothpaste, trial size mouthwash, bottled water, snacks, trial size wipes, trial size shampoo, trial size lotion, cotton swabs, trial size deodorant and bandages.

“We just wanted to do it,” Reimann said. “It’s so close to home here in Illinois.”

Reimann and Gottstein are making care packs with those items and hope to make 100 packs.

If people want to donate, they can email Riemann at shachris@comcast.net or Gottstein at Cinny33@att.net.

He was a self-taught, perpetual entrepreneur, starting businesses in farming, diesel machining and computer programming. He loved gardening, nature and a good, strong cup of black coffee. He was a voracious reader, who reveled in big ideas and complex problems.

It took a village to help Ted through the transition from this life to the next, but he had one. He was so appreciative of the care and sacrifice of Janet, his wife of 49 years.

He was immensely proud of his children, Jeanine (James) Mass, Jennifer (Phillip) Brown, Bradley (Kelly), Justin (Laura) and Jamie.

He adored his 11 grandchildren, Evan, Chloe, Madeline, Bailey, Owen, Avery, Sophie, Oliver, Wyatt, Sydney and Lincoln.

He greatly enjoyed the many visits of his friends and classmates over the past two years, and was thankful for the love and support of his sister, Jeanette Mucha of Ingleside, Illinois.

He was preceded in death by his parents and brother, John Jerominski.

Visitation will be Sunday, 4:007:00pm at Colonial Funeral Home, 591 Ridgeview Drive, McHenry.

Hillstrom, Bryant and Wall, and also Dr. Paul Wilson. She was an admissions coordinator at McHenry County College until 1984, when she suffered disabling injuries in an auto accident.

She was a creative woman, who always had several projects going at one time. She loved cooking, baking, sewing, needlework and gardening.

Breaking news @ www.NWHerald.com

Sports editor: Jon Styf • jstyf@shawmedia.com

‘Surreal’ weekend remains vivid for ’63 Bears Fifty years later, the memory still burns.

It was a Friday afternoon, and the mood was light as the Bears wrapped up practice at Wrigley Field. The weekend was fast approaching, and with it a road trip to Forbes Field to play the Pittsburgh Steelers.

And how could you blame the Bears for feeling good? George Halas’ team was 9-1, fresh off of its second win of the season against the rival Green Bay Packers.

Then came the news.

Larry Glueck, a rookie defensive back, heard it on a radio in a cramped locker room.

Defensive end Ed O’Bradovich heard it from equipment manager Bill Martell.

The president had been assassinated. John F. Kennedy was dead.

It felt as though the world had stopped spinning.

Or maybe it was spinning out of control.

“Players just started breaking

BEARS INSIDER Tom Musick down crying in the locker room, just in disbelief and shock,” Glueck, 72, said by phone Thursday from his home in Massachusetts. “And that was it. We all kind of went our own ways. We went home and watched TV the rest of the day and night.”

The overload of news prompted

many questions and few answers.

What happened?

What now?

“It’s the United States of America,” O’Bradovich said. “Strongest nation in the world, with the greatest system in the world. And to hear that the president of the United States – our president – was assassinated? It was insane.

“And you don’t know: Are we going to play? Aren’t we going to play?”

They were going to play.

• • • It wasn’t by the players’ choice.

The American Football League canceled its games for the weekend, but Pete Rozelle decided that the National Football League would carry on with its full schedule. Years later, Rozelle would call the decision his greatest regret as commissioner.

At the time, however, the Bears did as they were told.

Both squads return 4 starters from last season

By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO mmontemurro@shawmedia.com Placing in the state finals always raises expectations within a program.

On top of coming off a fourth-place finish in Class 4A last year, the Huntley girls basketball team opens this season owning a No. 9 ranking in The Associated Press’ Class 4A poll. But despite their recent success, the Red Raiders have their sights set this season on an achievement no Huntley team has accomplished: winning the program’s first Fox Valley Conference Valley Division title.

Crystal Lake South doesn’t plan to let that happen, at least not without a fight. The Gators, an upstart team a year ago, represent Huntley’s

toughest roadblock for that elusive title.

“We have so many threats when it comes to offense and defense,” South senior forward Sara Mickow said. “I think all the girls on the floor at any time are confident enough to put the ball in the basket, and I feel that’s a really big advantage for us because it makes teams worry about all five of us.”

South, which like Huntley also returns fourt starters, is one of the few teams able to match the Red Raiders’ firepower in the post.

Led by Mickow and junior forward Carly Nolan, as well as versatile 5-foot-9 guard Chanel Fanter, South is primed to capture its first division title since 2008.

Every swimmer has her magic number.

For McHenry senior Michaela Matthys, that number was 58.94, the 100-yard butterfly time she needed in the Vernon Hills Sectional to qualify for the state finals for the first time.

It’s an odd number and doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue easily, but swimmers are an odd lot.

They compete in a sport that measures success in the minutest of seconds, where a 58.94 gets you to Michaela state and a 58.95 Matthys doesn’t even get you a ticket to watch state.

Matthys did make her number, obliterated it more accurately, swimming more than two seconds faster than the qualifying time with a 56.82. Not only did she make it to state, she recorded the ninth-fastest time in the state and has a legitimate shot at swimming in the final heat Saturday at New Trier.

All qualifiers compete Friday in the preliminary rounds, with the top six swimming for the top six places Saturday and the seventh through 12th places competing in the consolation finals.

Qualifying for state was something Matthys had thought about and even dreamed about for a long time.

She even had a dream about getting a 56 and was told by several people that was where she would finish in sectionals.

But after swimming a personal best in the high 58s this season, dropping another two seconds didn’t seem possible.

“Everyone told me that I’d go a 56 and I didn’t believe them,” Matthys said. “I did not think that I would do that. It gives me a lot more confidence going in.”

A lot more confidence and a new number – 55. That’s where she thinks she needs to be to place in the top six at state. Practicing alone in the McHenry West pool this week, Matthys was reminded of that number by a note on the whiteboard from her club coaches. It simply read ‘55 top 5.’

Recent history bears out that number. The sixth-fastest time in the preliminary rounds the past two years has been 55.9.

Five local players receive all-state honors Jacobs QB Mooney named to 7A team

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com Jacobs quarterback Bret Mooney, who helped the Golden Eagles to their first conference title since 1979, was named to the Illinois High School Football Coaches Association Class 7A all-state team released Thursday.

Mooney directed a potent offense for Jacobs, which won its last seven regular-season games to win the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division ti-

Mooney (6-foot-4, 210 pounds) completed 59.2 percent of his passes (144 for 243) for 1,877 yards, 17 touchdowns and eight interceptions.

Other area players named to their respective teams were Prairie Ridge lineman Shane Evans and Cary-Grove lineman Trevor Ruhland in Class 6A, and Harvard tight end/ Bret Mooney linebacker Tate Miller and Richmond-Burton offensive lineman Bryce Wagner in Class 4A.

Cary-Grove’s Rose driven to succeed Beattie to run at Junior delays Central Michigan getting driver’s

By JOE STEVENSON

license to compete CARY – Melissa Rose is a lot of things.

She’s ambitious. She’s athletic. She’s friendly.

Perhaps most of all, though, the junior swimmer from Cary-Grove is driven.

Rose is driven to compete.

Rose is driven to succeed.

Rose is driven to practice.

No, seriously, Rose is driven to practice.

The 16-year-old is grateful to her parents, Jim and Carmen, for the rides to swimming pools near (Crystal Lake) and far (Florida).

Because, although she’s old enough to have her driver’s license, her focus at the moment is 100 percent on swimming lanes and zero percent on driving lanes.

Welcome to the crazy-busy, crazy-fun world of being a high school swimmer.

“It was kind of a mutual decision,” Rose said. “Practice and homework comes before driving.

“I’ll get my license, eventually.”

Traffic is horrible. Take your time.

Because just about anybody can sit behind a steering wheel and push down on a gas pedal. But not anybody can swim so hard and so fast that he or she qualifies for the state finals.

Rose can.

On Friday, as she does almost every day, Rose will jump into a pool and push her body to its limits in the 100-yard breaststroke. But this pool, and this day, will be different than almost any other. Rose will be at New Trier High School, host of the state finals, where she will compete in the preliminary rounds with the goal of advancing to compete Saturday for the top

Cary-Grove swimmer Melissa Rose trains Thursday at Health Bridge Fitness in Crystal Lake for this weekend’s state swimming meet at New Trier High School in Winnetka.

VIEWS Tom Musick six places.

Officials will measure Rose’s time to the hundredth of a second.

That’s perfect.

Because for Rose – and every swimmer whose hard work largely goes unnoticed while we pour ink on sports such as football, volleyball and basketball – a hundredth of a second is almost impossible to comprehend. Try hundreds of hours. Now, you’re getting somewhere.

For Rose, a typical day in the life starts with a 5:45 a.m. alarm clock. Fun times.

Then again, it could be worse. As a freshman, Rose practiced before school from 5:30 to 7 a.m. because she could only get pool time in the morning.

Now, practice follows school, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

C-G does not have its own pool, so depending on the

night or the week, Rose can be at any one of a few pools across the region. Often, she stays late to work on her turns or her starts or anything else, which means she does not return home until 9:45 or 10 p.m.

When she gets home, she finishes the homework that she started before practice.

As for Saturdays, those are practically a breeze. She doesn’t have to practice until 8 a.m.

“I get to sleep in a little bit, which is nice,” Rose said.

Sleep in? Um. How many other 16-yearolds are awake by 8 a.m. on a Saturday? For that matter, how many 16-year-olds are awake by noon on a Saturday?

Rose laughed. She knows that most others her age are sleeping while she trains.

“By the time I’m done with practice, usually they’re just waking up,” Rose said. “But I love what I do. When I come home, I just take a nap, and I feel good about myself.”

She should.

Six days a week, for two hours a day, Rose trains in the

pool. Three times a week, for between one and two hours a session, Rose takes part in additional “dry-land” training such as lifting weights, running and other cardiovascular exercises.

Some days can feel overwhelming, Rose said, but she battles through those days with the same strength that has made her a terrific swimmer. She is close with her family, including 18-year-old sister Emilie, and dreams of being able to swim in college.

Doing so would require more hours upon hours upon hours.

Rose is up for the challenge.

“I basically live at the pool,” Rose said. “I love it more than anything else.

“To train that much, you have to love it. I think the passion is really what keeps me going.”

week,” Matthys said. “I don’t have the pressure to make a specific number.”

That confidence is greater because she didn’t feel like she maxed out at sectionals and has swum some practice races this week in the 55s.

“I swam that entire race comfortably,” Matthys said of sectionals. “Now I can go out a little harder.”

mary goal for Cary-Grove’s Melissa Rose, who qualified in the 100 breaststroke with a personal best 1:05.44 to win the Barrington Sectional. Her time was the 13th fastest in the state.

It’s the third trip to state for Rose, a junior. Her previous two trips did not produce the results she had hoped for, swimming slower at state each year than at sectionals.

Last year, Rose was training to peak at state but got sick the week of state. She still swam an almost identical time as she did at sectionals. This year, she worked to get stronger and is hoping that better conditioning and experience swimming at state will benefit her.

“I trained really hard this summer,” Rose said. “I know what to expect this year.”

HERRICK AUTO REBUILDERS

As the third sister in her famous running family, Woodstock senior Maura Beattie possessed some knowledge of college recruitment.

Three years ago, Maura tagged along on most of sister Kayla’s official visits.

“I just wanted to see the college campuses,” Maura said. “I kind of knew what was going on and had an idea how their pro- Maura Beattie cesses went. I would talk to [oldest sister] Elise about it occasionally.”

It was Maura’s turn this summer and fall as she narrowed her prospective list to three schools – Central Michigan, Eastern Illinois and Bowling Green. Beattie chose Central Michigan over the weekend and will run cross country and track and field next year for the Chippewas.

“My dad [Dave] and I visited Central Michigan over the summer and I really liked the campus and the coach,” Beattie said. “I went there for an official visit after the McHenry County Meet [in August] and got to meet some of the girls. They gave me a lot of information and I felt that school was a good fit for me.”

Beattie finished her high school cross country career Nov. 9 by taking fifth in the Class 2A State Meet at Peoria’s Detweiller Park. She was all state in cross country in 2010 (seventh), 2012 (17th) and this year.

Beattie also won the Class 2A 3,200 meters last spring in track and field, and placed sixth in the 1,600 as a junior.

“I thought [the season] went well for me,” Beattie said.

“I was able to come back after track and just keep on continuing making improvement with time and my strength.”

Beattie figures she will run the 5,000 and 10,000 meters in college because she likes the longer races.

2013-14 TEAM PREVIEW CAPSULES FOX VALLEY CONFERENCE FOX DIVISION Crystal Lake Central Coach: Paul Lichtenheld, second season Last year’s record: 13-16, 4-8 FVC Fox (fifth) Top returning players: Shannon Ellman, sr., F, 5-10; Kelsey Schmitt, sr., G, 5-5; Evelyn Youel, sr., G, 5-8 Top new players: Maddie Helm, jr., G, 5-5; Maddy Lerum, so., G, 5-6; Molly Steffen, so., G, 5-5 About the Tigers: Central returns most of its offensive production from last season, and Lichtenheld has high expectations for the seniors with the hope that the younger players can help contribute. A tougher nonconference schedule should prepare the Tigers for FVC Fox opponents. “Our girls have heard all year from me that returning players and production is nice, but doesn’t mean anything if we haven’t worked to get better,” Lichtenheld said.

Grayslake Central Coach: Steve Ikenn, fourth season Last year’s record: 20-11, 10-2 FVC Fox (second) Top returning players: Morgan Dahlstrom, sr., C, 6-1; Carson Sparkman, sr., G, 5-8; Maddy Miller, sr., F, 5-10; Lauren Spalding, jr., G, 5-8 Top new players: Kelly Moroney, so., G, 5-6 About the Rams: Dahlstrom and all-conference guard Sparkman are two of four returning starters for Grayslake Central. Ikenn hopes the Rams can improve on last season, but acknowledged that could be tough with guard Rachel Effa injured for at least the first half of the season. He’s encouraged by younger players such as sophomore Kelly Moroney stepping up in Effa’s absence as the Rams contend for the division title.

Grayslake North Coach: Nate Flannery, second season Last year’s record: 26-4, 12-0 FVC Fox (first) Top returning players: Kendall Detweiler, sr., G; Brittney Thibeaux, sr., F; Maggie Fish, jr., G; Ashley Martineau, sr., G; Shannon Myers, sr., G; Sam Karnuth, sr., G Top new players: Alyssa Gunn, so., G; Sidney Lovitsch, fr., G; Ella Swanson, jr. F; Samantha Villwock jr., G About the Knights: Although Grayslake North lost some key players from last year’s division title team, the Knights still have one of the area’s best shooters in Detweiler, who is especially dangerous when shooting 3-pointers. Thibeaux gives the Knights a great threat alongside Detweiler as Grayslake North attempts to successfully defend its FVC Fox title.

Hampshire Coach: Mike Featherly, first season Last year’s record: 11-17, 5-7 FVC Fox (fourth) Top returning players: Becky Dumoulin, sr., G/F, 5-9; Sara Finn, sr., G, 5-6; Tricia Dumoulin, jr., G/F, 5-9; Nikki Dumoulin, so., G, 5-8; Emma Benoit, so., F, 6-2 Top new players: Claudia Lazar, jr., G, 5-7; Peyton DeChant, fr., G/F, 6-0 About the Whip-Purs: With a new coach

leading Hampshire, Featherly said his team has done a good job adjusting to a new system. While there still is a learning curve, Featherly said the Whip-Purs continue to get better each day. “We have a good mixture of senior leadership along with young players leading the team that have a good amount of basketball experience,” Featherly said. “There are a number of girls that are capable of being scorers; we just need to be more consistent in our execution.”

Johnsburg Coach: Brad Frey, third season Last year’s record: 4-25, 2-10 FVC Fox, (tied for sixth) Top returning players: Kayla Toussaint, sr., G, 5-6; Trace Chase, jr., F, 5-10; Maddie Himpelmann, sr., G, 5-5; Maycee Ward, sr., F, 5-6 Top new players: Carly Wilson, jr., F, 5-10; Jazza Johns, so., F, 5-11; Cortland Sommerfeldt, fr., G, 5-4 About the Skyhawks: Johnsburg is in its final season with the FVC and looking to improve on last season’s record. Offensively, the Skyhawks will be led by Toussaint, who is dangerous on the perimeter, and Chase, who is an inside-outside threat. “This years’ model of the Skyhawks is a little bit smaller and a lot quicker,” Frey said. “Our opening tournament will test us early.”

Woodstock Coach: Marty Hammond, seventh season Last year’s record: 8-20, 2-10 FVC Fox (tied for sixth) Top returning players: Cody Brand, sr., C, 6-0; Megan Pautrat, sr., G, 5-6; Amber Roberts, sr., C, 6-0 Top new players: Selena Juarez, jr., F, 5-9; Colleen Brown, jr., G, 5-6; Brecken Overly, so., G, 5-6 About the Blue Streaks: With four-year starter Brand a vital part of the Blue Streaks, Woodstock will feature a good balance between its guards and center. Although the Blue Streaks are bolstered by some quality seniors, overall, the team is lacking experience.

Hammond said he’s looking to the underclassmen to contribute immediately. “The junior class had a very successful season last year, so they should be able to bring some needed scoring to a team that at times was inept to put points on the board,” Hammond said.

Woodstock North Coach: Mike Lewis, fifth season Last year’s record: 17-13, 7-5 FVC Fox (third) Top returning players: Sam Abbate, sr., F, 5-9; Ashley Jones, jr., G, 5-9; Haley Ahr, so., C, 5-11; Sara Crain, sr., F, 5-7; Manda Landrey, sr., G, 5-9; Kristy Darling, jr., G, 5-6 Top new players: Jeni Crain, so., G, 5-6; Rachel Schaffter, so., G, 5-4; Sami Zieman, so., G, 5-6; Rhetta Bates, jr., F, 5-7 About the Thunder: Woodstock North is coming off its best finish in division play in the young program’s history and is eager to replicate the success. The Thunder return six players from last season’s team, including Abbate and Ahr. “I think that we have a good group of players here,” Lewis said. “They are working hard and trying to get better and also trying to understand each other and work together. I think we have an opportunity to have a successful season.”

VALLEY DIVISION Cary-Grove Coach: Rod Saffert, eighth season Last year’s record: 23-7, 11-1 FVC Valley (first) Top returning players: Katie Barker, jr., G/F, 5-10; Sarah Kendeigh, sr., G, 5-7; Abby Jakubicek, sr., F, 5-10; Jen Pilut, so., G, 5-8; Amy Clemment, sr., G, 5-3; Abby Glaysher, sr., G, 5-8 Top new players: Candace Cunningham, jr., G, 5-8; Olivia Miller, so., G, 5-7; Chrissy Sopchyk, jr., G, 5-8; Alli Josefowicz, jr., G, 5-6; Caylie Jones, jr., G, 5-6; Maddie Priester, jr., F, 5-7; Karisa Wilczynski, jr., G/F, 5-8 About the Trojans: Saffert expects C-G to again contend for the FVC Valley title as well as a regional title. The Trojans will be bolstered by the return of a healthy Barker.

“We lost good players to graduation, but this team’s main goal is to keep the winning tradition alive,” Saffert said. “We have many girls who can play for us this season, and they are determined to succeed at a high level again.”

Crystal Lake South Coach: Kyle McCaughn, 13th season Last year’s record: 23-7, 9-3 in FVC Valley (third) Top returning players: Sara Mickow, sr. F, 5-11; Carly Nolan, jr., F, 5-11; Rachel Rasmussen, sr., G, 5-6; Chanel Fanter, so., G, 5-10 Top new players: Gaby De Jesus, jr., G, 5-1; Lauren Gaugher, jr., F, 5-7; Hailee Massie, jr., G, 5-6 About the Gators: South will be contending for the division title with the return of four main contributors, including Mickow who averaged a double-double last season. “We are very excited about the season in front of us,” McCaughn said. “We return a very nice core and have athletes ready to step up and accept their role.”

Dundee-Crown Coach: Sarah Miller, first season Last year’s record: 4-23, 0-12 FVC Valley (seventh) Top returning players: Emily Michalski, sr., F, 5-11; Lauren Lococo, jr., G, 5-8; Jesania Laboy, jr., F, 5-10 Top new players: Kayla Lawrence so., G, 5-9; Allison Michalski fr., F, 5-11; Melissa Barker, so., G, 5-8 About the Chargers: D-C, with a new coach, wants to be competitive in the conference. Miller said her players have been committed and are embracing their respective roles on the team. “We have stressed to the girls that every game will be a fight and battle from start to finish,” Miller said. “As long as our girls keep working hard, stay focused and control the defensive and offensive components we emphasize each and every day, I believe we will put ourselves at good positions to win more games this year.”

Huntley Coach: Steve Raethz, 15th season Last year’s record: 26-8, 10-2 FVC Valley (second) Top returning players: Ali Andrews, so., F, 6-2; Sam Andrews, sr., F, 6-0; Bethany Zornow, sr., G, 5-9; Kayla Barreto, so., G, 5-2; Jessica Brock, jr., G, 5-5; Rachel Zobott, sr., F, 5-9

Top new players: Katie Costantino, jr., G, 5-5; Paige Renkosik, so., G, 5-8; Kelli Rubino, jr., G, 5-8; Abbey Brown fr., G, 5-6 About the Red Raiders: Returning four of five starters from last season’s team that placed fourth in Class 4A, Huntley expects to build off the success. Opposing defenses will have the challenge of trying to shutdown down forwards Ali Andrews and Sam Andrews, who each averaged 15.7 points a game last season. “Our team is working very hard each day to improve individually and collectively, and we are working very hard to develop our cohesiveness and chemistry,” Raethz said.

Jacobs Coach: Joe Benoit, second season Last year’s record: 3-24, 2-10 FVC Valley (sixth) Top returning players: Nicole Cook, sr., G, 5-7; Megan Mangieri, sr., C, 5-10; Tiffany Frighetto, sr., G, 5-7; Jenni Barnec, jr., G, 5-8 Top new players: Alyssa Lach, sr., G, 5-5; Nita Williams, jr., G, 5-5; Jessica Powell, jr., G, 5-5 About the Golden Eagles: After finishing sixth in the FVC Valley last season, Jacobs looks to move up in the division standings.

The Golden Eagles will be a young group this season with two freshmen and two sophomores. “With a ton of new faces, our team will look much different, and a lot will depend on how quickly our players jell,” Benoit said. “But we like what we see so far.”

McHenry Coach: Scott Morris, seventh season Last year’s record: 15-16, 4-6 FVC Valley (fifth) Top returning players: Makayla Sneddker, so., C, 6-0; Sawyer Lay, sr., G, 5-8; Gretta Taylor, sr., F, 5-7; Carly Mattson, jr., G, 5-6; Katlyn Sena, sr., F, 5-10 Top new players: Alex Martens, so., F, 5-10; Lindsay Skinner, jr., G, 5-7; Gabe Schweitzer, jr., F, 5-7; Ashley Kamepf, jr., C, 6-0 About the Warriors: McHenry will be young this season, starting two sophomores, two juniors and one senior, but the Warriors have a deep bench with potentially 10 players getting playing time each game. Although Morris isn’t sure the Warriors will have a player averaging double-digit points a game, he envisions 10 players potentially averaging five points a game. “Sawyer Lay and Makalya Sneddker will be asked to do a lot more this season in regards to leadership and scoring,” Morris said. “Carly Mattson, a move up last season at Christmas, will continue to provide stability at point guard.”

Prairie Ridge Coach: Rob Baker, second season Last year’s record: 19-11, 6-6 FVC Valley (fourth) Top returning players: Sara LeBeau, sr., G; Sarah Kilhoffer, sr., F; Kelly Klendworth, jr., G; Maddie Drain, sr., C; Rosie Ridge, sr., F Top new players: Ally Clark, so., G; Kirsten Voel-Pel, so., F About the Wolves: Prairie Ridge returns only one starter after losing six players to graduation. Baker expects the Wolves to do their best to improve and compete on a daily basis. “We are inexperienced but looking forward to the season,” Baker said. “We have great practice energy and continue to get better in practice.”

BIG NORTHERN CONFERENCE Marengo Coach: Nick Rode, third season Last year’s record: 9-20, 5-6 BNC East (fourth) Top returning players: Lynsey Hoeske, sr., G, 5-7; Taylor Carlson, sr., G, 5-6; Kassidy Girmscheid, sr., F, 5-9 Top new players: Rachel Tautges, jr., G, 5-8; Nicole Johnston, so., F, 5-9 About the Indians: Rode said Marengo has a quality mix of new and returning players, including solid “glue girls” Nikki Hammortree and Logan Brettschneider, who have the ability to play multiple positions. “We are going to be a work in progress while being characterized as a team that plays together and always competes,” Rode said. “We are going to rely on our top returning players to score within the team concept.”

Richmond-Burton Coach: Courtney Ludois, second season Last year’s record: 16-12, 8-4 BNC East (second) Top returning players: Hannah Koenig, sr., C, 6-0; Abby Straight, sr., G/F, 5-10; Hali Hoglund, sr., G, 5-2; Kellie Koren, sr., G, 5-1; Sara Swanson, jr., G, 5-4; Jessica Guenther, jr., F, 5-7 Top new players: Lauren Otto, jr., G, 5-5; Grace Schwegel, jr., F/C, 5-10; Jillian Townsend, jr., G/F, 5-7; Tally Blanton, jr., G, 5-4; Meagan Spohr, jr., G, 5-7; Katie Staggs, jr., G, 5-2 About the Rockets: Coming off a second-place finish in the BNC East, R-B features three returning starters and a host of juniors, who will be looked to step in. The Rockets will have to overcome a tough Burlington Central team to finish atop the division. “I expect senior captains Hannah Koenig and Abby Straight to show a lot of leadership and guide this team throughout the season,” Ludois said.

NORTHEASTERN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE Alden-Hebron Coach: Jen Nichols-Hogle, second season Last year’s record: 16-9, 5-3 NAC Top returning players: Brooklyn Hilton, sr., G/F, 5-9; Jacqueline Walters, sr., G, 5-7; Hannah Warren, so., G, 5-5 Top new players: Emily Webber, fr., F/C, 5-9; Tally Lalor, fr., G, 5-6 About the Giants: After four of A-H’s eight players graduated last year, Nichols-Hogle said her team is the hardest working she ever has coached. Walters and Hilton are expected to take on leadership roles while junior Hannah Behrens will be a key player in the post for the Giants. “Our saying ‘watch this’ is their idea of when they step on the court for games or practice you won’t want to look away, because no matter the outcome, they are going to give it their all every second to give their team the best opportunity to be successful,” Nichols-Hogle said.

Note: All area teams were contacted, and this information was compiled from those who responded.

Five players to watch Sam Andrews Huntley, senior, forward Andrews has proven she can knock down a shot from anywhere on the court, and there’s no reason to believe she won’t have the same success this season. The 6-foot forward is just as efficient in the post as she is behind the 3-point line after making 52 3-pointers last season, second most by any area player. Defenses will quickly be reminded not to foul Andrews, who converted 81.8 percent of her free throw attempts.

“In the offseason I definitely worked very hard with improving my quickness, but I’m still working on my shooting every day,” Andrews said. “I’m definitely very confident shooting 3s because I know that I practiced a lot in the offseason.”

Sara Mickow Crystal Lake South, senior, forward One of the best rebounders, particularly on the offensive glass, Mickow has a knack for finding the basketball.

Although an injury slowed her at the end of the season, she is coming off an impressive year when she averaged a double-double (12.5 points and 10.5 rebounds). Mickow’s ability to snare offensive rebounds for put-back buckets is a unique skill and difficult to defend.

“I don’t necessarily box out all the time; I just tend to be in the right place at the right time, jumping at the right spot,” Mickow said. “It all kind of works out.”

Evelyn Youel Crystal Lake Central, senior, guard/forward Youel does it all for Central over the course of her four seasons on varsity.

While she doesn’t intimidate with her size at 5-foot-8, Youel isn’t afraid to play physical.

She still hauled in seven rebounds a game last year while averaging 7.4 points, 2.7 steals and 1.7 assists. With the Tigers vying for a Fox Valley Conference

Fox Division title, Youel is an integral part of their system.

“I’m willing to play anything they need me to play,” Youel said. “I like to contribute any way I can whether it’s helping my teammates score – I just work hard. I’m not the tallest person out there, but I work with what I can do.”

Emma Benoit Hampshire, sophomore, forward/center Part of a young team learning a new system under a new head coach, Benoit has the ability to be a game-changing player for the Whip-Purs. After averaging 12 points and eight rebounds a game last year as a freshman, Benoit has the potential to be one of the area’s best post players. If Hampshire can get the ball inside to the 6-foot-2 Benoit the Whip-Purs can attack opposing defenses with an effective inside-outside game.

“I want to be more of a leader and help if anyone has questions,” Benoit said. “With AAU, it’s a lot more intense. I think I have that intensity and I think my ball-handling has gotten a lot better.”

Ali Andrews Huntley, sophomore, forward The 6-foot-2 Andrews averaged 15.7 points while grabbing 7.3 rebounds a game last season as a then-freshman and, with more experience, defenses are going to have a tough time slowing her down. Andrews said she worked to improve her outside shooting and ball-handling skills, which will only enhance her ability to dominate in the paint. Defensively, Andrews is an imposing figure near the rim. She posted an average of 2.4 blocks and 2.4 steals a game last year.

“I’m just trying to build off last year and try to be a more well-rounded player on and off the court,” Andrews said. “I’d like to become more of a leader on the team to some of the younger girls.”

Crystal Lake South’s Chanel Fanter (center) drives to the basket during the first half Wednesday’s game against Streamwood in the Dundee-Crown High School Thanksgiving Girls Basketball Tournament in Carpentersville. The Gators, who finished third in the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division last season, will be contending for the division title with the return of four main contributors from last season’s team.

Gators coach McCaughn says his team still chasing Huntley and Cary-Grove • GIRLS BASKETBALL Continued from page C1 Gators coach Kyle McCaughn said, in his mind, his team still is chasing Huntley and Cary-Grove until the Gators prove otherwise.

“Of course, I’m very excited about what’s in front of us,” McCaughn said. “ ... If we can have four kids in double digits and play unselfish basketball, we’re going to be tough to beat. But once again, we’re on the outside looking in. We haven’t won a conference championship in a long time.”

The combination of Huntley forwards Sam Andrews, a senior, and Ali Andrews, a sophomore, will present plenty of issues for opposing defenses. Together the duo averaged more than 30 points a game last season.

“It’s really exciting looking at this team and seeing where we could go,” Ali Andrews said. “If we work hard in practice and take it game by game, we’ll see how it all works out.”

Nobody is overlooking C-G, which has won four consecutive FVC Valley titles, including three outright. Although the Trojans need to replace much of their scoring production from last year, a healthy Katie Barker is one reason coach Rod Saffert is optimistic this season. Still, it appears the road to a FVC Valley title goes through Huntley and Crystal Lake South.

“We’ve just got to be concerned about us,” Huntley coach Steve Raethz said. “We can’t be concerned about what other teams are doing and those type of things. We’ve got to control what we can control, and that’s working to get better each day.”

In the FVC Fox, Grayslake Central and Grayslake North are eager to retain their recent dominance in the division. Between the two schools, the Rams and Knights have won the past three FVC Fox titles.

Grayslake North went undefeated in division play last season and returns two key players – Kendall Detweiler and Brittney Thibeaux.

An experienced Crystal Lake Central squad and Woodstock North, which had its best season in school history last year, pose the greatest threats.

Richmond-Burton, Marengo and Harvard will have a hard time preventing Burlington Central from finishing atop the Big Northern Conference East Division. Burlington Central features a talented group of sophomores, many of whom played a lot of minutes on varsity last season as freshmen.

mlazerus@suntimes.com WINNIPEG, Manitoba – After all the hype and pomp that surrounded his last – and first – visit to Winnipeg to face his hometown Jets, Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews was kicking himself for failing to score, especially after losing the handle on the puck during a breakaway.

He made up for it Thursday night.

Toews had one of his best games of an already superlative season, posting a goal and three assists – including the set-up for Marian Hossa’s game-winning goal – as the Hawks pulled away in the third period for a 6-3 victory over the Jets.

With Hossa back by his side after he missed three games with a lower-body injury, the top line was once again dominant – particularly Toews, who even won all nine of his first-period faceoffs, all of them against Jets center Bryan Little.

Despite a shaky second period, it was another strong bounce-back game for the Hawks. On Saturday, they were run out of Nashville by the Predators in a 7-2 loss, but responded with a 5-1 victory over the Sharks the next night. And after a 5-1 loss at Colorado on Tuesday, the Hawks again put together a solid effort.

With the two blowout losses fresh in their minds, the Hawks were focused on getting off to a good start, and they did just that. Patrick Kane rifled a shot past Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec from the top of the left circle at 17:26 of the first period to give the Hawks a 1-0 lead, and they headed into the intermission with a lopsided 12-2 edge in shots on goal. It was Kane’s team-best 12th goal of the season, and extended his point streak to nine games (five goals, seven assists).

at San Juan, Puerto Rico, ESPN2 Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews (left) and Patrick Kane celebrate Toews’ Northeastern, 4 p.m.: Puerto Rico Tip-Off, semiinal, Michigan vs. goal against the Winnipeg Jets during the second period of Thursday’s game in Florida St., at San Juan, Puerto Rico, ESPN2 Winnipeg, Manitoba. Toews also had three assists in the Hawk’s 6-3 victory.

6 p.m.: 2K Sports Classic, championship, UConn vs.

When Marian Hossa won a puck battle in the corner and sent a pass to the slot, where Brandon Saad ripped a one-timer past Pavelec for a 2-0 lead just 3:03 into the second period during a 4-on-4 stint, the Hawks seemed well on their way to another bounce-back win, and another laugher over new division rival Winnipeg.

But the game was just getting started.

Nineteen seconds after Saad’s goal, still 4-on-4, former Hawks winger Andrew Ladd one-timed a Bryan Little pass past Corey Crawford to the cut the Hawks lead to 2-1. Twenty-nine seconds after that, Ladd set up Keaton Ellerby’s power play goal, tying the game.

It was three goals in 48 seconds, as a potential rout turned into a battle.

Toews took the lead back with a highlight-reel tally at 11:03 of the second, working his way toward the net and scoring his 11th goal of the season.

But once again, the Jets responded. And once again, it was a familiar face. This time, 2010 Stanley Cup hero Dustin Byfuglien

MISSED FIELD GOALS-Atlanta, Bryant 52 (WL).

scored a rebound goal that Crawford bobbled and allowed to trickle past him, tying the score at 3.

It was a tough period for Crawford who was trying to bounce back from being pulled in the first period Tuesday at Colorado.

Crawford, who has appeared in 13 straight games thanks to Nikolai Khabibulin’s struggles and injury, has now allowed 20 goals in his last six appearances. He made 22 saves against the Jets.

“I know that we all assume some responsibility in that area defensively, how we play in our own end,” Hawks coach Joel Quenneville said before the game. “But our goaltending’s had a recent stretch where we’re letting in too many goals.”

But the Hawks, who lead the NHL with 29 third-period goals despite their early season struggles, took back control early in the third.

First, Hossa chipped in a cross-ice pass from Toews for the 4-3 lead at 3:11. Barely two minutes later, Ben Smith put in a Marcus Kruger rebound to make it 5-3. Patrick Sharp added an empty-netter in the final minute.

ANALYSIS: NORTHERN ILLINOIS 35, TOLEDO 17

Lynch confident in front of national audience

By STEVE NITZ snitz@shawmedia.com TOLEDO, Ohio – For the second straight week, Northern Illinois football beat a good team in front of a national audience, defeating Toledo, 35-17, on Wednesday night.

One would think that would impress the voters in the USA Today/Coaches’ and Harris polls, which would help the Huskies’ status in the BCS standings. NIU entered the game ranked No. 16, one spot behind fellow non-AQ program Fresno State.

And once again, Jordan Lynch did all he could playing on ESPN2, whose viewers probably included a number of Heisman Trophy voters.

Just as NIU coach Rod Carey said after last week’s win over Ball State at Huskie Stadium, he thinks Lynch deserves to be in the discussion for the Heisman.

“If he’s not in the Heisman conversation, I don’t know

who should be in the country,” said Carey, who received a Gatorade bath as NIU clinched its fourth straight Mid-American Confernence West Division title.

“He’s doing it with his legs and with his arm and with leadership. I’m just really proud of him and everybody tonight.”

Lynch certainly ran well, accounting for 161 yards and three touchdowns. As the sec-

BEARS NOTES

Red-zone offense regresses

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@shawmedia.com LAKE FOREST – The fact that Robbie Gould has been pretty much automatic in field goals (19 for 20) this season is all well and good, but the Bears would prefer touchdowns.

In the first eight games this season, Marc Trestman’s offense converted 19 of 30 red-zone trips into touchdowns (63.3 percent) and was 11 for 16 in goal-to-go situations.

The past two games, however, have seen the Bears stall near the goal line, which contributed to the loss against the Lions.

“In that last game, we didn’t get [a touchJosh McCown down] in the red zone that first trip down there,” Josh McCown said after Thursday’s practice.

“Those things that really eat at me because, at the end of the day, you want to find a way to get in the end zone,” he said. “You’ve got to get your team in the end zone and you can’t go down there and take three all the time.”

In the past two games, the Bears are 2 for 8 in getting touchdowns in the red zone (25 percent) and an ugly 0 for 3 in goal-to-go situations, which doesn’t include their inability to convert on a pair of two-point conversion attempts against the Lions.

Trestman said the team worked on the red zone Thursday, specifically on one throw that can be lethal near the goal line.

“We’ve got to do a better job of throwing back shoulder fades and doing the things that we’ve been able to do during the season,” he said. “...

We’ve just got to be more consistent at it. So we made a point, not only in fades, but all the different routes we run in the red zone to try to prepare us for tomorrow, really, which is our red zone day.

“We did a lot of one-on-one today in the red zone, and in the tight red zone as well, just to practice it not only from an offensive standpoint, but from a defensive standpoint, as well.”

As good as McCown has been, he can improve his efficiency in the red zone. He is 5 for 13 throwing in the red zone (38.5 percent), compared to Jay Cutler’s rate of 22 for 44 when he’s inside the opponent’s 20-yard line. The Rams are 15th in the league in red-zone defense, allowing 19 touchdowns in 35 redzone trips.

Matching “freshness”: Trestman shortened Thursday’s practice, wanting to give his team a little more rest, as the Rams are coming off a bye. “[The Rams’] defense is going to be fresh,” offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer said. “So we’ve made an emphasis this week of having them not come in on Monday, giving them a break, telling them to stay off their feet, stay at home, rest, study tape on their iPad, but don’t get up. And then we cut practice this week, some reps, to try to get our guys as fresh as we can.”

Lynch and Co. took the ball and drove 99 yards, capped off by a 1-yard touchdown dive by the Huskies’ senior quarterback. Lynch called the long drive a “dagger” to the opposing defense.

“Honestly, it’s a great feeling,” Lynch said of his team’s 15-play, 99-yard drive that took 5:22. “It does [stink] being backed up 99 yards, you know. Just looking at all that space, on ESPN2, just showing the world, the nation what we can do. If I could have talked to you guys before that drive, AP photo I could have told you we were Northern Illinois quarterback Jordan Lynch (right) runs the ball near going to go down and score.”

Other quarterbacks

such as Alabama’s AJ McCarron, Oregon’s Marcus Mariota and Fresno State’s Derek Carr also are in the conversation.

Maybe Lynch is in New York City when the trophy is presented.

The scary thing for opposing defenses is Lynch said the best is yet to come for him and the rest of the Huskies.

One underrated part of Lynch’s game this season has been his improved accuracy.

After Wednesday’s 17-for22 performance, Lynch has completed 66.3 percent of his passes. He finished the 2012 season with a 60.2 completion percentage.

“If you really think about it, this is my fourth year playing quarterback,” he said. “I played quarterback in high school (at Chicago’s Mt. Carmel), but we ran the triple-option, only threw the ball four times (a game), so I was pretty much a running back. Every game I get more and more comfortable playing football.”

St. Louis’ talent could erupt As the Bears begin their drive to the playoffs, there is danger just down the road in St. Louis. The Rams are one of those young, very talented clubs that is just learning how to be a team.

And it’s a classic example of how being bad over a period of time can allow a team to stockpile the kind of talent that can make it good rather suddenly once it figures it out.

The Bears have to hope the Rams’ 38-8 demolition of the Colts in Indianapolis wasn’t that sudden turnaround.

Between 2007 and 2012, the Rams compiled records of 3-13, 2-14, 1-15, 7-9, 2-14 and 7-8-1.

With the second overall pick in the 2008 draft, they selected Chris Long. Picking second again in 2009, they wasted a pick on Jason Smith, but the 35th pick netted James Laurinaitis.

In 2010, the Rams selected Sam Bradford with the first overall pick and, in 2011, they used the 14th overall pick on Robert Quinn.

In 2012, they won the lotto, trading the second overall pick to the Redskins for a first-rounder they traded down to No. 14 in the first round to select Michael Brockers and the Redskins’ 2013 and 2014 first-round choices. In 2013, the Rams selected Tavon Austin and Alec Ogletree in the first round and they still have their own and the Redskins’ first-round choices for 2014.

The Rams also have used high second- and third-round picks over the past three years to add tight end Lance Kendricks, receiver Austin Pettis, receiver Brian Quick, cornerback Janoris Jenkins, running back Isaiah Pead, cornerback Trumaine Johnson, safety T. J. McDonald and receiver Steadman Bailey.

Not all of those players will hit, but when your roster includes five

Hub Arkush’s 3-Point Stance

1

When the Bears and Rams tangle in St. Louis on Sunday, there will be two individual matchups that are worth the price of admission. Robert Quinn is the best young defensive end in the league, having a breakout season, and he’ll be matched up with Jermon Bushrod almost all day.

2

Julius Peppers is coming off one of his best games in years, and Jake Long once again is one of the two or three best left tackles in the game. Unless the Bears move Peppers more than usual, these two will be paired up, as well. If either team wins both of those matchups, they’ll win the game and it might not be close.

rounds, you’ve got an awful lot of exciting, young athletes to work with.

With the strategic additions of just a few veteran free agents such as Jake Long, Cortland Finnegan and Jared Cook, it’s easy to see how this team is on the cusp.

The main reason they haven’t arrived yet is the continued uncertainty whether Bradford can be the franchise quarterback you hope for with a No. 1 overall pick. And with him now done for the year with a torn ACL, coach Jeff Fischer is left looking for other ways to win.

So the Bears have a bunch of veterans with great technique who know how to win, but are they good enough?

The Rams have the young athletes who can be good enough, but can they learn how to win?

By being almost good enough but making just one playoff trip in the past six years, the Bears now are looking at a rebuild without the high picks the Rams have used to stock their roster.

The Rams might be a couple players away from being good enough for a number of years to come.

“He wanted 100 percent of the focus back on the game,” O’Bradovich said. “That’s all he would talk about: the game, the game, the game.

“If you think about it, it sounds kind of ruthless, but that’s what he had to do as the owner and head coach.”

Once the game started, O’Bradovich quickly refocused on football.

“It doesn’t take too long when they start popping you,” O’Bradovich said.

“That didn’t take but about two plays for me to figure that out.”

At 6-3-1, Art Rooney’s Steelers were no easy opponent. They featured hard runners such as Dick Hoak and John Henry Johnson, a slick receiver in Buddy Dial, and tough defenders such as Myron Pottios and Clendon Thomas.

The game proved to be one of the Bears’ toughest

challenges of the season.

Twice, the Bears grabbed the lead. Twice, the Steelers recovered to tie the score.

Then, in the fourth quarter, the Steelers finally pulled ahead, 17-14, with a field goal.

That’s when Bears tight end Mike Ditka made the play of the season.

Ditka hauled in a pass from quarterback Billy Wade and charged down the field to put the Bears in field goal position. Ditka’s teammates watched in awe.

“We were losing,” Glueck said, “and he catches a pass and runs through pretty much the entire Pittsburgh Steelers defense. It’s probably one of the greatest plays I’ve ever seen anybody make.”

O’Bradovich agreed.

“Mike Ditka, he had a lot of great games,” O’Bradovich said. “But I would say that was one of his great-

est, if not his greatest.

“I think he ran over and through seven Steelers. He had two guys hitting him.

Another guy. Another guy.

They couldn’t bring him down.”

Nor could the Steelers bring down the Bears. The Bears converted the field goal after Ditka’s big gain, and the game ended in a 17-17 tie, which proved to be important in the standings as the Bears went on to win the 1963 championship.

It was a weekend – and a season – that no one would forget.

“It was surreal,” Glueck said. “That game got us to the world championship game.”

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 Associ-

“The Hunger Games: Catching FIre” STARRING: Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam

es of violence and action, some frightening images, thematic elements, a suggestive situation and language.

RUNNING TIME: 2 hours, 26 minutes

VERDICT: A considerable upgrade over the first “Hunger Games” movie, “Catching Fire” comes across more like a remake than a sequel.

In the adaptation of the second installation in Suzanne Collins’ young adult trilogy, there’s certainly plenty that has changed. Rebellion against the totalitarian rule of President Snow (Donald Sutherland) in the 12 districts of Panem is growing. Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) is now a beloved hero with the weight of celebrity on her shoulders. And Philip Seymour Hoffman, bless him, has found his way into the proceedings. Yet the general plot – a journey from Katniss’ poor hometown of District 12 to a climactic game of human hunting in “the arena,” with high-speed train rides and training sessions in between – is identical to the first “Hunger Games.” More has shuffled behind the camera, and “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” is much the better for it. Francis Lawrence (“I Am Legend”) has taken over directing from Gary Ross, whose poor handling of the first film didn’t stop it from becoming a sensation. Lawrence has given the film (the budget was nearly doubled) a more settled environment heavy on greys and a more appropriately grave emotional atmosphere. These are kids being forced to kill other kids, the franchise seems to have realized. “Catching Fire” opens with Katniss back in District 12, haunted by the experiences of her first Hunger Games. There, too, is her flame Gale (Liam Hemsworth), who’s slaving away in the mines.

(Hemsworth, a nonentity in both films, makes about as convincing a miner as Ben Stiller’s Zoolander did.) But Katniss’ success in the Hunger Games was partly due to her for-publicity-sake romance with her co-winner Peeta (Josh Hutcherson, who seems about half the height of the screen-dominating Lawrence).

President Snow, aware of the put-on, insists they keep up the charade to help pacify the uprising. There’s an ironic satire of modern celebrity somewhere in “Catching Fire.”

Katniss has become famous only to find it a trap. As her Hunger Games coach Haymitch (Woody Harrelson) says, “You never get off this train.”

Lawrence isn’t so different. “The Hunger Games,” along with her more interesting work in “Winter’s Bone” and “Silver Linings Playbook,” has made her an enormous star. She is quite literally “the girl on fire,” as Katniss is nicknamed. When she’s trotted out with Peeta on a victory tour of the 12 districts to “feed the monster” – that is, to distract the masses with their tabloid romance – one can’t help but see “The Hunger Games” as the same kind of diversion. It’s dystopia-lite: a bloody tale of oppression watered down for a PG-13 rating. The act doesn’t work as Snow intended. On the tour, we get glimpses of protesters, emboldened

by Katniss, swiftly snuffed out by Storm Trooper-like guards. (Any actual dying in “The Hunger Games” always happens just off screen). With his plotting new adviser (Hoffman, adding a dose of intrigue), Snow announces a twist: The next Hunger Games will be fought between former Games winners. He hopes these Hunger Games will reveal – in the reality show broadcast of the event – Katniss as a killer, not a symbol of populist hope. The most pleasing moment in “Catching Fire” comes when these other former Victors – a motley crew of veteran warriors – is introduced. Among the bone-crushing murder professionals is, of all people, Jeffrey Wright. He proves a cunning brainiac. Back are Elizabeth Banks (as the Capitol escort Effie), Lenny Kravitz (as Katniss’ pyrotechnic stylist) and, easily the high point of both movies, Stanley Tucci as the campy broadcast emcee Caesar. Among the newcomers, Sam Claflin, as the arrogant Hunger Games veteran Finnick Odair, has a mischievous charm. But “Catching Fire” is, to be sure, Lawrence’s show.

The exaggerated world of “The Hunger Games,” with its cartoonish decadents, teenage Roman gladiators and theatrical allegory, would overwhelm most young actors. But Lawrence (convincingly tormented in this film) has a calm sincerity and steely determinism that cuts through it all. Katniss’ rise is hers, too.. – The Associated Press

“Delivery Man” STARRING: Vince Vaughn, Chris Pratt, Cobie Smulders PLOT: An affable underachiever finds out he’s fathered 533 children through anonymous donations to a fertility clinic 20 years ago. Now he must decide whether or not to come forward when 142 of them file a lawsuit to reveal his identity.

RATED: PG-13 for thematic elements, sexual content, some drug material, brief violence and language TIME: 1 hour, 45 minutes VERDICT: In the 17 years since “Swingers,” Vince Vaughn has cultivated the comedic persona of an obnoxious and insensitive boor, so it may come as a surprise to learn that “Delivery Man” reveals a softer side entirely. As David Wozniak, the world’s most fertile sperm donor, the star plays someone who’s overwhelmed as opposed to merely overwhelming. It’s a welcome change, though a significant marketing challenge as well, considering DreamWorks has almost no way of letting audiences know that “Delivery Man” is virtually nothing like a Vince Vaughn movie, but rather a heartfelt celebration of the act of parenthood presented under radically exaggerated circumstances. Such sincerity comes easy for Canadian writer-director Ken Scott, who’s already told this story once before in the charming French-language hit “Starbuck.” Now, working in Hollywood, he demonstrates the good sense not to mess with success, engineering what amounts to a scene-for-scene remake of that earlier feel-good outing – with the notable addition of Chris Pratt in his funniest supporting performance yet.

Transplanted from Montreal to Manhattan for the benefit of this new version, Wozniak drives a deli-meat truck, but even that task proves too much responsibility for his stunted abilities. Vaughn’s character may not be the sharpest blade in the family butchery, but he has a good soul, which comes through the instant he receives news that would send any normal man into panic mode. Nearly 20 years earlier, he donated dozens of times to a fertility clinic, which, through an administrative fluke, used his sperm to foster 533 children, 142 of whom are demanding to know the identity of their biological father. More shocking for Wozniak is the revelation that his policewoman g.f. (Cobie Smulders) is pregnant, though neither revelation is particularly easy to process for a man who grows marijuana in his apartment and has more parking tickets than dollars to his name. Presented with a packet of information about his children, Wozniak draws one page at random and decides to pay the kid a visit, eavesdropping on a professional basketball game where his son scores the winning shot. For a split second, the film allows audiences to think that perhaps this sub-average shlub could be responsible for fathering 533 exceptional offspring: a mix of athletes, stars and world leaders. That’s the beauty of Scott’s script, which supplies precisely the emotional uplift moviegoers want, while still managing to surprise at every turn. The circumstances may be contrived, but the characters feel refreshingly genuine. “Delivery Man” skips over all the diaper changes and sleepless nights and gets to the essence of parenthood, when fathers must learn to put aside their preconceived expectations and accept their children for who they are. Life is well underway for most of them when Wozniak enters into the picture, and the movie celebrates the diversity of possibility, presenting him with offspring of all colors and personalities.

The film’s biggest surprise comes at a perfectly conceived moment set at a conference that steers what could have settled for farce into far deeper territory. Where so many laffers rush to dismiss raw emotion with an ironic wink, Scott isn’t afraid to get sentimental. It would be no stretch at all to interpret “Delivery Man” as a pro-life movie, illustrating as it does the miraculous range of individual personalities that can result from the same set of paternal genes, each one special in its own way. But Scott’s warm-hearted humanism extends further than family, as if to remind that we are all brothers and sisters, with more in common than could possibly separate us. Even if your soul can’t stand the thought of Vince Vaughn at the center of a 143-person group hug, there’s no denying this marks a turning point for the star. With Scott’s help, he has delivered a rare and special package indeed. – 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 white-haired 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.

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 in “The Avengers,” as if we’re still so consumed by that movie. 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

Partying mom’s wild lifestyle Stop casual drinking from becoming problem drinking puts daughter’s well-being at risk Dear Dr. K: I’m a 36-yearold woman. Lately I’ve been drinking more than I used to. How can I rein in my drinking before it becomes a problem?

Dear Reader: Even for people who initially have a healthy relationship with alcohol, things can change over time. So how can you prevent casual drinking from crossing into problem drinking?

First, some basics. A standard drink equals 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine or 1.5 ounces of hard liquor.

According to the National Institutes of Health, healthy women should drink no more than three drinks a day and no more than seven drinks a week (an average of one drink a day).

Even if you usually stay within this limit, alcohol could be problematic. For example, how often do you drink until you feel tipsy or drunk? Do you crave alcohol?

How often do you drink more than you should?

Based on these questions, you may decide it’s time to cut back or stop drinking altogether. Whatever you decide, an informative new e-book by my Harvard Medical School colleague Dr. Debi A. LaPlante, “Responsible Drinking for Women,” can help you make the change.

This e-book will help iden-

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff tify issues that could make it difficult to change, and then introduce strategies to overcome them. It is available through online retail booksellers.

You’ll start by setting goals. Do you want to drink less or eliminate alcohol completely? Do you want to start now or in six months? Do you plan to cut back gradually or stop cold turkey?

You’ll also need to acknowledge why you drink.

For example, many women drink to help cope with stress or conflict. You may have learned that, in the short run, alcohol alleviates uncomfortable feelings and strong emotions. But you can retrain yourself to cope in healthy ways, making it less likely you’ll turn to alcohol in times of stress.

Finally, don’t underestimate the importance of overall wellness to help prevent relapse and propel long-term change. Being physically out of shape, for example, is not just a cosmetic issue – you also just don’t feel that well.

You don’t have your usual energy; your mind doesn’t seem as sharp. You get sleepy

earlier in the day. You’re just not yourself.

When you’re in that kind of state, finding the inner discipline to deal with any problem is a challenge. That’s why improving your diet, maintaining healthy sleep habits and exercising regularly can help you achieve and maintain your drinking goals.

I’ve had several patients who never had a problem with alcohol until a very stressful event, such as the loss of a job or the end of a relationship. Almost always their friends tended to drink pretty heavily – more heavily than they. But because of the stress, they started to follow their friends when that second or third drink was ordered. On occasion, people who had never had a drinking problem started drinking alone, and in excess. But usually they were just doing what their friends were doing – and getting no negative feedback.

I hope this advice, and the more detailed information in Dr. LaPlante’s e-book, will help you decide if you have a problem and, if so, to nip it in the bud.

She has a 2-year-old daughter, but she lives her life on the edge. She spends her days on the Internet meeting strange men and going out with them in private places.

On the weekends, she drops her daughter here and takes off.

She has a history of drug and alcohol abuse and prostitution, but swears she only drinks alcohol now. I get so worried and upset I find myself yelling at her and trying to prevent her from leaving with these strange men. She thinks I’m trying to control her life when I’m actually trying to save her.

Dear Abby: I read the obituaries in our local newspaper every day to see if someone I know has died. But when I don’t see any familiar name, I feel let down and disappointed. Is that weird? – Still Alive

In San Diego Dear Still Alive: People read the obituary section for various reasons, including the fact that some of the deceased have lived very interesting lives. Some do it hoping they won’t find their own name listed. If they see the name of an acquaintance, they may feel sadness at the loss or sympathy for the family, knowing each death leaves a hole in someone’s heart.

But to feel “let down” seems to me like a lack of empathy, and in my opinion, it IS weird.

remind them, but the parents you describe are under pressure because they don’t want to disappoint their kids.

To the panicked parent who asks, “What am I supposed to do now?” you could respond by saying, “Now you go to Plan B.” Then suggest some other toy the child would like – even though it’s not his or her No. 1 choice. While I think the comment you would like to make (but keep suppressing) is an excellent suggestion, it would not be an appropriate one to make in a situation like this.

Baldwin tries to ease backlash over gay slur

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Friday, November 22, 2013 • Section C • Page 10

Alec Baldwin jokingly professed his love for a man in front of a large crowd this week as he tried to ease the backlash triggered by an Internet clip that captured him berating a photographer with what sounded like a gay slur.

“I want you to be my lover, Matt,” Baldwin told a member of his entourage after asking him to stand up. “I love you, Matt. I love you in that way.”

After the packed audience’s laughter died down, Baldwin added that he has loved some men more than women during his life, although never in a sexual way.

The Emmy-winning actor prefaced his moment of levity with plenty of contrition as he sought to minimize any lingering damage to his career from the fallout after a confrontation with a photographer outside his New York home last week. He made his appearance at a major technology conference in San Francisco, a city that has been at the forefront of the gay rights movement for decades.

Echoing remarks he made in blog post over the weekend, Baldwin adamantly denied punctuating a profanity-laced tirade with an epithet that demeans gay men.

BUZZWORTHY

BBC sets b-day bash for ‘Doctor’ “Doctor Who” is turning 50. So what do you get a time-traveling, galaxy-hopping hero who has everything?

Plenty of new time and space on the airwaves.

The BBC is throwing a broadcasting blowout for the sci-fi show, which began with little fanfare and few expectations Nov. 23, 1963, but now is one of its biggest hits and major exports.

A 75-minute anniversary episode will be shown simultaneously Saturday in almost 80 countries, and there are 3-D screenings in movie theaters around the world.

The anniversary week features hours of supporting programs, online teasers and mini-episodes, and a “Doctor Who” festival at a London conference center. And then there’s “An Adventure in Space and Time,” a 90-minute drama about the origins of the show, which was broadcast Thursday in Britain and Friday on BBC America.

“An Adventure in Space and Time” recounts how a group of inexperienced program-makers “set out to create a bit of teatime telly and instead created magic,” scriptwriter Mark Gatiss said at a preview screening.

“Doctor Who” even has royal approval – Britain’s royal family threw a Buckingham Palace reception this week for its stars and creators.

The hoopla contrasts sharply with the BBC’s initially careless attitude to the show.

“Doctor Who” has had as many narrow escapes as its hero, a charismatic Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey who travels the universe in the Tardis, a time-and-space machine shaped like a blue British police phone box that is bigger on the inside than it looks.

The Doctor – he’s always called the Doctor; the “Who” of the title is an existential question – has been played by 11 actors in six decades. He’s had dozens of travelling companions and saved the world countless times. He has visited ancient Rome and the Stone Age, distant galaxies and the end of time. He has battled robotic Cybermen, rampaging Yeti and – repeatedly – the Daleks, those pepperpot-shaped metal aggressors whose favorite word is “Exterminate!”

‘Fire’ premieres finally end for cast

DiCaprio donates $3 million to WWF

Nine – that’s how many red carpets the stars of “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” have walked at premieres around the globe to promote it.

Not that they’re complaining about going to cities like Rome, London, Paris and Madrid. Still, the film’s stars, Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth, admitted it was a bit of a whirlwind traveling for the second film in the “Hunger Games” series.

“You look at the schedule, and you’re like, ‘Oh man, that’s grueling,’ and then you’re living it, and you’re like,’ I can’t possibly ... uh, I can’t do this,’” she said, laughing on the red carpet at the film’s final premiere in New York City Wednesday night.

“It’s crazy to wake up in a different city every day, but I think turning up and seeing how excited people are for this film, it gives you energy,” Hemsworth said.

Leonardo DiCaprio wants to help the tiger population of Nepal.

His Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation has awarded $3 million in grants to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to work with the Nepal government on protecting the animals.

In a statement Wednesday, the actor and activist said he’s “hopeful” the money will help “exceed the goal” of doubling the tiger population that exists in Nepal.

The money will help build up anti-poaching patrols and protect and restore areas for them to breed and expand.

JFK comic art withdrawn from auction An auction house has withdrawn from sale the original artwork for a 1964 Superman comic book featuring President John F. Kennedy.

Heritage Auctions had hoped to sell the artwork Friday in California for an estimated $50,000. But its creator sued the Dallas-based firm Tuesday, seeking to disclose the seller’s name.

Illustrator Al Plastino of Shirley, N.Y., believed “Superman’s Mission for President Kennedy” had been donated to Boston’s Kennedy Library decades ago. But last month he spotted it at New York Comic Con, where Heritage was exhibiting it.

Heritage says the seller bought it at auction in 1993.

Plastino’s attorney says DC Comics told his client the work would be donated to the library. The attorney says he believes it was stolen before that could happen.

DC Comics had no comment.

Rehab: Brown threw rock through mom’s car window A judge ordered Chris Brown this week to spend three months in rehab after reading a report that said a facility discharged the R&B singer because he threw a rock through his mother’s car window.

Superior Court Judge James Brandlin also added additional rules for Brown in the coming months, requiring him to perform at least 24 hours of community labor a week and to submit to drug testing as he deals with anger management issues.

Brown and his attorney agreed to the terms, which were suggested by probation officials who are overseeing Brown’s sentence for his 2009 beating of then-girlfriend Rihanna.

The Grammy winner threw a rock through his mother’s car window Nov. 10 after a joint counseling session in which she suggested the singer remain in treatment, according to a letter submitted by the rehab facility.

The facility’s name was not included in court filings.

“Mr. Brown proceeded to walk outside and pick up a rock and threw it through his mother’s car window and it shattered,” the letter states. Brown was discharged because he had signed a contract agreeing to refrain from violence while in treatment.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS Actor Robert Vaughn is 81. Actor Michael Callan is 78.

Comedian-director Terry Gilliam is 73. Actor Tom Conti is 72.

Singer Jesse Colin Young (The Youngbloods) is 72. Guitarist-actor Little Steven (The E Street Band, “The Sopranos”) is 63.

Bassist Tina Weymouth of Talking Heads is 63. Actor Richard

A good argument for plugging in Chevrolet Spark an excellent example of all-electric, reliable and affordable cars available The Washington Post I am sometimes a neighborhood recluse, seldom moving beyond the boundaries of my community on days when writing duties tie me to my home office.

I take meal breaks and “soul breaks” – and time for short errands, usually traveling to local restaurants, shops and churches.

It occurs to me I need not burn gasoline and further burden local air quality with tailpipe emissions to do those things. I am now convinced I don’t have to.

There are all-electric cars, reliable and affordable with sufficient drive range per charge to allow me to go locally where I want to go without running out of juice. I recently

comes with the seemingly daunting price (for a small car) of $27,495. I wrote “seemingly daunting” because that price can be reduced by a $7,500 federal tax rebate.

Still, it is going to be a tough sell. It always is when it comes to getting Mary Anne to loosen her grip on the family purse. But I have virtue and common sense on my side.

Our house sits diagonally across the street from a major school bus stop. Two middle schools and one high school are in our immediate neighborhood. During the school year, mornings and late afternoons are filled with the sounds of the comings and goings of those children. They are our future. They, at least, deserve to breathe cleaner air.

front-wheel-drive Spark EV comes with a 120volt power cord. I plug it in to my home-voltage power outlet overnight and am ready to go the next day.

If the battery pack is near complete discharge, it will take nearly 20 hours for a full recharge using the 120-volt charging system.

Quicker recharging is available, seven hours to full charge, using an available 240-volt recharging system by Robert Bosch GmbH, a multinational engineering/electronics company and the world’s largest supplier of automotive components, headquartered near Stuttgart, Germany.

That means I will have to come up with several hundred dollars more should my wife, Mary Anne, approve my intended purchase of the Spark EV 1LT, the model I drove, which

drove an excellent example of the genre, the 2014 Chevrolet Spark EV 1LT, and am seriously considering its purchase. The little car makes so much sense.

With a full charge of its 21-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack, I can travel 82 miles at speeds of up to 90 mph before I need to recharge the battery. In terms of driving range, that is more than I need to get around my home town and adjoining jurisdictions. In terms of speed, there is no where I can drive locally at 90 mph without getting arrested and hauled off to jail. Local speed limits range from 25 to 50 mph, with severe penalties for significant violations.

Over the years, I’ve paid my share of those fines. I have no desire to pay one cent more.

Volkswagen introduced the four-door CC to North American buyers in 2009.

Choice of powerplants remains the same in 2014. A turbocharged, 200-horsepower four-cylinder engine is standard, but a 280-horsepower V6 is available. Six-speed transmissions (automatic or automated DSG manual) are mated to the engines.

Photos provided

Room for more Added seat, luxury features bonuses to Volkswagen CC

W

hen it arrived for sale in the United States in 2009 with the styling of a four-door coupe, Volkswagen officials emphasized the CC (sold as Passat Comfort Coupe in Europe) was a sedan.

Based on the Passat, the CC had all of that sedan’s engineering and ergonomic flavoring but lacked one thing: The rear seats were buckets with seating for only two. The Passat could seat three adults in its rear seat.

A change was made in 2013 that carries over into the 2014 model year. There now is seating for three in the rear bench seating area of the CC. It can be advertised as a four-door, five-passenger midsize sedan.

With the change, the CC matches the seating of a Passat, but they are not the same vehicle as the CC includes more luxury features as standard equipment.

For those who want excitement in their driving life, the CC will provide it. With a sporttuned suspension and a lively powerplant, the CC continues Volkswagen’s reputation for quick starts and smooth and quiet sailing along roadways.

The powerplants are either a 2-liter, turbocharged, 200-horsepower four-cylinder engine or a 280-horsepower V-6 mated to either a six-speed stick shift or six-speed dual clutch automated manual transmission. The direct-shift gearbox operates like

REVIEWS Jerry Kuyper an automatic, which means the driver has no work to do.

A recently tested turbo 200-horsepower CC with the DSG accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in slightly more than seven seconds. A hill-hold feature of the transmission lets the CC stop on a steep incline without rolling backward. Braking from 60 mph to zero can be done in a distance of less than 125 feet on dry pavement. This is good for a car with disc brakes featuring single calipers.

The CC is a standout in a crowded field of midsize fourdoor cars. The leather seats are plush but firm, and the two in front operate by power and are heated or cooled as the season indicates. Leg and body room is ample.

Besides the interior metal and leather trim, amenities abound. Standard equipment on the CC includes bixenon lamps, adaptive front headlights and LED tail lamps.

Prices start at $31,795 for a Sport and can rise to $43,000 for the VR6 all-wheel-drive Executive model. Of the six models, the VR6 has all-wheel drive; the other five are front-wheel-drive models. The tested model was a four-cylinder, $36,995 FWD

Executive with standard equipment including a power sunroof, interior ambient lighting, navigation system and an upgrade color touchscreen interface.

Because it is a sedan shaped like a coupe, sight lines are poor to the rear, so use of the power and fold exterior mirrors is essential.

Both front and rear seating rows have an armrest storage console, but in the rear it is a pulldown apparatus. There is a lockable pass-through in the rear seating area to connect with the 13-cubic-foot lighted and carpeted trunk. This allows for the temporary storage of longer items, such as skis and poles.

A raked windshield, subdued C-pillar treatment and frameless rear windows are design highlights of this coupe passing as a sedan.

Fit and finish on the test vehicle were excellent. One outside metal panel met in a perfect seam with another.

Doors and windows were tight, and insulating materials must have been in every hollow space surrounding the cabin as quiet prevailed.

The inline, intercooled and turbocharged four-cylinders have straight injection. Economy is a plus, as during the test week, the 3,369-pound CC averaged 28.2 miles per gallon.

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 suggests that Mercedes-Benz is taking a page from other car dealers and offering premium cars at sub-premium prices.

Stepping up with a step down

By WARREN BROWN The Washington Post The 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 is an exceptional car for everyman, which speaks more to profits than it does to democracy.

Relatively few people can afford automobiles costing in excess of $40,000, the price tag often attached to Mercedes-Benz’s previous entry portal of C-Class cars.

More buyers can be had at $40,000 or less. The sweet spot for automotive sales is in the heart of the middle class, with base prices ranging from about $30,000 to $40,000.

The CLA 250, with a base price of $29,900, is aimed at that audience.

South Korea’s Hyundai Motor Co. figured all this out long ago. It also realized that middle-class buyers have pride, what many folks in Asian cultures call “face.” Hyundai is enormously successful because it honors “face” by offering upper-class cars at middle- and working-class prices.

An aside: In the United States, Mercedes-Benz has long presented itself as an

exclusive luxury marque. But in Europe, South America, Africa and many parts of Asia, the German car company wears a more common face — a maker of cabs, compact family vehicles, commercial trucks and public transportation. Reasonably priced, well-engineered Mercedes-Benz vehicles are not uncommon in those places.

But how do you explain that to Americans reared on notions of Mercedes-Benz exclusivity? With its new CLA cars – the front-wheel-drive 250 and 45 AMG – Mercedes-Benz appears to have answered that question taking a page from Hyundai: It is offering premium cars at sub-premium prices.

That may not sit well with people invested in outmoded concepts of prestige and automotive performance, although Mercedes-Benz provides a healthy sampling of the latter in its CLA 45 AMG. But the accessibility strategy will go a long way toward winning buyers who place a premium on value.

I will go further: The CLA cars could save

Mercedes-Benz from becoming irrelevant in markets where the likes of Hyundai and Kia are gaining customers with attractive, affordable automobiles.

I drove the CLA 250 and 45 AMG in Virginia and Maryland and found them very much to my liking. Both have excellent build and materials quality. Overall road behavior in both is excellent for daily commuting and longer road trips. Both, judging from numerous public comments, are attractive – especially the 250, with its eye-catching diamond-black grille.

Self-described automobile enthusiasts, that bunch that seems to measure everything in 0-to-60-mph acceleration times and that worries mightily about matters such as “turbo lag,” will not be excited by the CLA 250. The car is too tame for them. But here’s betting that most people who have a chance to drive it will join me in celebration.

The CLA 250 is an effortless driver – as fast as it needs to be when needed, easy to steer (thanks to speed-sensitive, electro-mechanical power steering), and reasonably

fuel efficient at 26 miles per gallon in the city and 38 mpg on the highway. Its 2-liter, direct-injection, turbocharged (forced air) four-cylinder gasoline engine requires premium fuel. But given the engine’s performance (208 horsepower, 258 pound-feet of torque), that’s not a bad trade-off.

More power can be had in the CLA 45 AMG with a specially tuned version of the 2-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine (335 horsepower, 332 pound-feet of torque.)

You can move from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds in the CLA 45 AMG. But you’ll pay for it with an estimated base price of $36,000.

Mercedes-Benz officials say the fuel penalty for the CLA 45 AMG won’t be “much higher” than that of the CLA 250, and a nearly 100-mile drive in the CLA 45 AMG seemed to back that up in terms of highway mileage.

I like the new CLA line.

Mercedes-Benz has done a much-needed thing here – making its badge more accessible to more people with high-quality, relatively low-cost products.

Thumbs up.

Spark costs $6.72 to drive 200 miles • SPARK Continued from page D1 I think I successfully can make that argument to Mary Anne, a retired elementary-school teacher whose heart has never left the classroom. If that does not work, I can appeal to her severely practical mind with numbers. To wit: It costs $6.72 to operate the Spark EV 200 miles a week.

A new gasoline car of similar size traveling the same weekly distance would cost $31.65, according to research done by economists at General Motors, the Spark EV’s manufacturer.

I know that there are holes in that argument, such as the Spark EV’s initial purchase price, even with the federal rebate. And we drove the Spark EV 1LT in splendid autumn weather, not in the misery of an icy winter or the sticky heat of the dog days of August. All of those conditions would create an additional drain on the car’s lithium-ion battery pack.

But I remain convinced that the Spark EV 1LT is worth the investment.

It runs clean with lots of torque, a remarkable 400 pound-feet. It has decent oomph, the equivalent of 130 horsepower.

It is small and easy to park. It is so loaded with electronics, such as Chevrolet’s My Link system, which turns your iPhone into an integral part of the automobile, the Spark EV is a portal to the future.

I write none of this to

FACT SHEET Bottom line: The 2014 Spark EV 1LT is the perfect neighborhood automobile – a truly reliable, civil little car.

Ride, acceleration and handling: Ride is good. Acceleration is excellent – instant torque! Handling is weighted by the heft of that lithium-ion battery pack.

Head-turning quotient: Terms such as “sexy” don’t come to mind. But the car is a good candidate for “endearing” and “cute.”

Body style/layout: The 2014 Spark EV 1LT is a front-wheeldrive electric car employing a lithium-ion battery pack and electric motor essentially based on the same platform as the gasoline-fueled Chevrolet Spark mini-car. It has certain underbody and other modifications to enhance aerodynamic efficiency. It has four side doors, a rear hatch . . . and no tailpipe.

Power system: A 21-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack powers an electric motor that drives the front wheels. The transmission is automatic – one-speed direct drive.

Capacities: There are seats for four people. Cargo capacity suggest that electric cars will dominate personal transportation anytime soon, or to ignore the fact that some pollution somewhere is involved in the manufacture and operation of electric vehicles. All of us, apparently except mem-

is 9.6 cubic feet, enough for a week’s groceries for a family of four. Recharging time to “full” ranges from seven to 20 hours, depending on whether you use Bosch’s quick-charge system or regular 120-volt house current.

Mileage: The MPGe (gasoline miles-per-gallon equivalent) is 119, a pretty good number.

Safety: Standard equipment includes a three-year subscription to GM’s OnStar emergency communications system; four-wheel disc brakes (ventilated front, solid rear); four-wheel anti-lock brake protection; emergency braking assistance; electronic brake-force distribution; stability control; traction control; stolen-vehicle tracking assistance; and 10 air bags.

Price: The base price of the 2014 Spark EV 1LT is $27,495, with a dealer’s invoice price of $26,395. A more posh Spark EV 2LT is available at $27,820, with a dealer’s invoice price of $26,707. A $7,500 federal tax rebate applies to both cars, as does a $810 factory-to-dealer destination fee. East Coast supplies are limited. bers of the U.S. Congress, are aware that life well lived is a matter of trade-offs.

I think the Spark EV and cars like it are worth the trade-offs.

Keep moving in this direction, GM and Chevrolet.

Automakers showcase vehicles equipped with the latest technology at the ITS World Congress Tokyo 2013.

Tokyo automakers showcase IT-enhanced, self-driving cars The YOMIURI SHIMBUN TOKYO – Automakers showcased vehicles equipped with the latest technology at the ITS World Congress Tokyo 2013 as they compete to put autonomous car driving systems into practical use.

If research and development on such safe-driving systems progress, the use of autonomous cars is expected to reduce the number of accidents and ease traffic congestion.

Some automakers view the challenge as an opportunity to make the most of their advanced technological capabilities to attract future customers.

The model unveiled by Toyota Motor Corp. at the ITS (intelligent transportation system) show is able to maintain a safe distance between two cars if both have the same system installed. According to the automaker, the car behind detects changes in speed in the car in front

through a wireless communication system and maintains an appropriate distance. The system steers automatically and takes the most suitable course after detecting cars running nearby and traffic lanes through onboard radar and camera.

As the model is intended for use on expressways, the automaker conducted a demonstration drive on the Metropolitan Expressway for the ITS event.

Toyota plans to sell new models equipped with the autonomous driving system around 2015. If other automakers adopt the system, it may help prevent rear-end collisions and ease traffic jams.

Honda Motor Co. also revealed its prototype of an autonomous car for the first time. While in movement, the vehicle gathers location information on pedestrians from their smartphones and brakes automatically when there is danger of collision.

Honda has yet to decide when the vehicle will be put into practical use.

Automakers are increasing the number of new models equipped with safety systems aimed at avoiding collisions.

Competition has thus intensified over how to improve the precision of their respective systems.

Each system gathers information on the surrounding area and brakes automatically when vehicles are at risk of colliding with a person or an object, or when the vehicle gets dangerously close to vehicles in front of it.

At the congress, other automakers, such as Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. and German automaker BMW AG, also had displays and conducted trial demonstrations of the safety system.

The focus from now is not only on the development of specific technologies by individual companies, but also whether a communications system can be standardized.

Ram 1500 offers multiple choices to customers REVIEWS Jerry Kuyper Full-sized pickup trucks are back in fashion today, and buyers face lots of options in that market.

GMC, Chevrolet, Ford, Toyota, Nissan and Ram – each truck maker offers multiple renditions of its product based on powertrains, bed and cab sizes, drive componentry and interior and exterior trim.

Ram has almost 40 models from which to choose in the 1500 series alone. That is not counting the 2500 or 3500 Rams, which will add another 25 or more to the list of choices.

A 2013 Ram 1500 was tested recently and, in price, it mimicked the market. Although a Ram ranges from $23,600 to more than $46,000, the tested Ram 1500 was a crew cab Outdoorsman SLT model, which slid into a pricing slot of $37,300.

The four-wheel-drive crew Outdoorsman SLT has four doors, room for six in two rows, P265 17-inch tires, chrome wheels, a fullsize spare stored underneath, a 66-inch-by-51-inch box and a 5.7-liter, 370-horsepower Cummins I6 engine mated to a shiftable six-speed automatic transmission.

Besides power windows, door locks, exterior heated foldable mirrors and front seats, a power sliding rear window opens to the bed.

The powertrain can tow a 10,300-pound trailer.

Payload is 1,659 pounds. Ram engineers call this best in [light duty truck] class. With the turning of a dial on the dashboard, the driver can shift on the fly from two-wheel-drive to low or high four-wheel-drive.

With a weight of 4,525 pounds, the SLT was rated by the Environmental Protection Agency as averaging 13 miles per gallon city and 19 mpg city and 15 mpg combined. The EPA rating was right on the mark as during the test week. The 26 gallon fuel tank takes regular unleaded gasoline.

The bed is lined by a spray-in composite material to prevent scratches to underlying metal. It is divided, has post holes, has a step-up bumper, a fairly light removable and lockable tailgate and cargo lights mounted on the cab. The box is roomy enough for 4-by-8foot sheets of plywood. Flanking the bed are Ram lockable boxes. They are on the outside of the box and run over the wheel wells for most of the length of the bed. Each box is 51 inches long and 10 inches wide. Depth varies from 8 to 16 inches. Depth depends on proximity to the wheel wells. The boxes are hinged and lockable, and the interiors have a hard plastic finish.

Because it is a huge vehicle, entry and

A 5.7-liter, 370-horsepower Cummins I6 engine mated to a shiftable six-speed automatic transmission is one of the powerplants in the 2013 Ram heavy duty pickup trucks. Wheel to wheel running boards help driver and passengers climb into the cab. exit (height from ground to cab is 20.9 inches) can be difficult, which is why grab handles are provided at strategic locations on all four doors.

Space inside the cab will please those with large frames. Leg room in the rear is almost as ample as that in front (officially 40.3 and 41 inches respectively). A center armrest can be flipped to form a seat back so three people can sit in the front.

While the competition depends on leaf springs in the rear, the Ram does not. It has shock absorbers inside coil springs front and rear, and the independent suspension system is enhanced by short and long arms in front and multilinks in the rear. Stabilizer bars are heavy duty and placed front and rear. For the work it has to do, Ram engineers decided to forego typical truck leafs for the coil springs.

The ride is easier on the body. An optional $1,595 air suspension system at all four corners is available.

Trailer sway control, hill start assist and electronic stability control are standard.

After the unlatching, the hood raises itself by hydraulic pistons.

Besides the power features, amenities include remote keyless entry, remote start system, upgraded cloth trim, air conditioning, cruise control, sound system for AM/FM/satellite radio, CD player and auxiliary hookups.

Also there are 12- and 115-volt power outlets, rear dome light with on-off switch, glove box lamp, under-the-hood lamp and rubber floor mats. These are necessities in a work truck.

Warranty coverage is five years or 100,000 miles on the powertrain and three years or 36,000 miles limited with 24-hour roadside assistance.

For information, visit www.ramtrucks. com.

Ram will introduce a six-cylinder diesel to the U.S. market in early 2014. It is a powertrain option competitors do not have.

Infiniti SUV has new name: QX56 becomes QX80

By ANN M. JOB

Fact sheet

The Associated Press With the new name of QX80 for 2014, Infiniti’s largest sport utility vehicle packs some of the softest-feeling leather, shiniest burl wood and a host of other luxury items into a big, nicely crafted interior.

But this seven- or eight-passenger SUV, renamed from last year’s QX56 so it fits with Infiniti’s new, 2014 nomenclature, retains its predecessor’s styling, truck-based platform and even the 5.6-liter V-8 that helped create the name QX56 in the first place.

Confusing? Yes. Is it disappointing that there’s no 8-liter engine under the QX80 hood? Not necessarily.

The carryover, naturally aspirated V-8 is gasoline direct injection and generates a healthy 400 horsepower and 413 foot-pounds of torque at 4,000 rpm.

It propelled the 2-ton-plus QX80 test SUV quickly around other vehicles in traffic and onto highway merges. It also helps give the QX80 a towing capacity of 8,500 pounds, which rivals some full-size pickup trucks.

Better yet, the QX80 feels stout and sturdy and can be fitted with an array of the latest safety features – most of them optional, such as backup collision intervention that takes rearview cameras to the next technological step. Too bad, though, that neither the QX80 nor its predecessor QX56 has federal government crash-test results to compare with other full-size SUVs. Still, the QX80 is a recommended buy of Consumer Reports, where reliability is listed as above average.

Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, is $62,345 for a base, 2014 QX80 with rear-wheel drive and automatic transmission.

Starting retail price, including destination charge, for a base, 2014 QX80 with all-wheel drive is $65,445.

Competitors include other large, luxury SUVs that have seats for seven or eight, such as the 2014 Mercedes-Benz GL450 4Matic, which starts at $65,475 with 362-horsepower, bi-turbo V-8, automatic transmission and four-wheel drive. Note that while the QX80 has one powerplant, the Mercedes GL offers several, including a fuel-sipping diesel six-cylinder and a high-performance, 550-horsepower V-8.

The 2014 Infiniti QX80 is carmaker’s largest sport utility vehicle, renamed from last year’s QX56.

Another competitor, the 2014 Cadillac Escalade, has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $68,965 with 403-horsepower V-8, automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. Cadillac also sells an Escalade Hybrid.

Styling on the 17.4-foot-long QX80 is polarizing. With a snoutish front end and rather flat roofline, the SUV was named one of Car and Driver magazine’s 10 Ugliest Cars For Sale Today.

Infiniti engineers continue to refine the ride. For 2014, an optional Hydraulic Body Motion Control system for the suspension seeks to counteract the weight and mass swings that a big, heavy vehicle like the QX80 would have in cornering and sweeping curves. The system provided impressive improvements vis-à-vis the normal motions of a big SUV. It did not eliminate head toss and a tippy sensation now and then.

While road bumps overall were nicely managed, there was bounciness in the ride on some road surfaces and a weighty feel at the corners where the optional 22-inch wheels resided.

quiet, enough to make the optional Bose Cabin Surround a wonderful feature.

Shifts were mostly smooth from the seven-speed automatic transmission, though engine vibrations in first gear often came through the gas pedal to the driver’s foot.

Premium gasoline is recommended but not required in the QX80, and the tester averaged just 12.4 miles per gallon in mostly city driving. The federal government’s ratings are 14/20 mpg for city/highway travel.

Everyone climbs up to get into the QX80, and side running boards are standard. They could be a bit wider, however.

Front-row and second-row captain’s chairs look wide and are, so they can accommodate larger-size passengers and provide good support and comfort. It’s the third row, where people sit with knees up near their chins, and with 28.8 inches of legroom, that the QX80 shows its limitations.

In contrast, the third row in the Escalade offers 34.9 inches of legroom.

Infiniti does have power-recline seatbacks for this row, but this

Views out front were excellent, and a rearview camera is standard.

The optional backup collision intervention automatically stops the vehicle if an obstacle back there is detected.

Other newer safety features are available, such as blind spot warning that has intervention, which helps guide the QX80 back into its lane if it’s drifting into a vehicle at its side.

The QX80’s big size and the lack of any exterior trim on the doors make it seem prone to dings and dents from neighboring car doors in parking lots.

But all riders in the test QX80 were impressed by the interior craftsmanship of this tall-riding SUV. The optional semi-aniline leather on the seats was soft to the touch, and softly gathered leather on the interior doors added unexpected luxury.

The light tan seat color was mimicked on the front of the dashboard and so was the seat stitching. But smartly, the top of the dashboard, where glare from sunlight can be a problem, was finished in a warm and dark brown, creating an easy-on-theeyes atmosphere.

The QX80 interior is peacefully

DESTINATION CHARGE: $995 doesn’t improve legroom or the shortness of the third-row seat cushions.

It also can be tricky for less-thannimble folks to get to the third row because they have to work their feet onto the exterior side running board, then to the slightly higher entry floor spot, then to the still-higher third-row floor.

The middle person in the QX80 back seat doesn’t have a head restraint.

And unlike today’s crossover SUVs, second-row seats do not have fore-and-aft seat tracks that could help improve third-row legroom.

Buyers can get a second-row bench seat instead of captain’s chairs to accommodate an eighth person.

Steep grades strain transmission, brakes I drive a 2011 Hyundai Sonata. Last year, I drove to Phoenix for vacation. I traveled long distances down mountain grades. While I was descending, I did not apply the brakes all the time. I down-shifted the transmission.

I am going back to Arizona. How should I handle the mountains? Was down shifting the correct thing to do? Was I hurting the tranny? What are your suggestions? – J., email While cruising downgrades, you can downshift to a lower gear, but it’s best to shift down only one gear to use engine braking and the brakes to control vehicle speed. Also, don’t over-rev engine rpms. Between engine braking and the foot brake, you should be able to stay within posted speeds.

I’ve driven the Arizona mountains several times. They are not nearly as challenging as other grades in the west. It’s important to not ride the brakes and, when possible, shift the transmission back to high gear when engine braking is not absolutely necessary.

Mountain travel strains the transmission and brakes. To learn about how to manage the systems, follow recommendations in your owner’s guide.

I have a 1996 Ford Econoline XLT van. My anti-lock brake system light comes on every once in a while. It will turn off when I turn the engine off, then back on. It is very inconsistent.

Where is the ABS module and

DR. GIZMO Phil Arendt the connector to hook up a code reader to find what is causing the light to come on? – K.R., St. Paul, Minn.

Your model van was available with two versions of antilock brakes. One was two-wheel ABS at the rear wheels. The other had fourwheel antilock brakes. The two-wheel system has speed sensors in the rear axle. The four-wheel system has speed sensors in the rear axle and front wheels.

Because there are different variations, I can’t be specific about the test link, but generally it is near the control module. That being said, the general code reader most do-it-yourselfers utilize does not read antilock brake system codes. You might find a code reader in the $200 to $300 dollar range that will retrieve ABS system codes. Other tools are more expensive units meant for professional technicians or a factory tool named a Rotunda NGS scan tool.

Additionally, a condition such as you describe generally is caused by a faulty wheel speed sensor, dirty or corroded speed sensor mount, poor electrical connection or even excessively worn wheel bearings. You might check for these conditions. Repair might be as easy as cleaning a plug.

My 2007 Chevrolet HHR LT dies. I can be driving along when all or a sudden the engine loses power and stalls. This does not happen all the time. It might occur once or twice a week, or it might not happen for a month. When it does happen, a message on the dash states “reduced engine power.” I don’t need my dash telling me the engine has lost power. I can figure that out for myself. It’s real annoying when the car stops dead in its tracks. Thank goodness it restarts.

Twice the car has been towed to a repair shop. Once I limped to the shop so they could see what was happening. My shop has found codes PO122, PO223 and PO601. They replaced a pedal sensor and throttle sensor. After replacing these parts, the car was fine for a month, but the trouble returned.

When I went back to the shop, a mechanic flushed the powertrain module, and the car was fine for about two weeks. Further tests found the same codes. Now they say the powertrain module causes the issue.

The sensors test fine even though codes pop up. Do you think the module is bad? – W.C., email The fact a code for the powertrain control module surfaced after programming indicates the unit has an issue. Before condemning the unit, a technician should check circuits, ground connections and plugs for loose or corroded terminals. If electrical connections are sound,

it’s likely the module is the cause of this issue.

The front passenger power window in my 2001 Nissan Pathfinder quit. Being pretty handy when it comes to fixing my family cars, I bought a new motor at an auto supply store and installed it. The window works now, but when it closes in auto mode, it closes and then opens about 5 inches. The window works fine when not in auto mode.

I called my parts supplier about the issue. He said to return it for another. I exchanged the part, but I’m having the same problem. Do you have any suggestions? – J.A., email Do-it-yourself auto repair does pose challenges due to a lack of tools, diagnostic equipment and repair information. Be this as it may, there should be a reset or relearn process explained in instructions that came with the part. The motor might have a button you need to press to initiate the process, and instructions should guide when to press the button. If instructions are not included with the unit, consider contacting the manufacturer of the motor. Also, parts supply store personnel might be able to help.

Additionally, consider using information available in Internet-based subscription repair manuals such as Alldata, Chiltons or Mitchell. They offer the same information professional technicians utilize but at a fraction of the cost. A subscription can

be bought for one specific vehicle. On top of all of this, consider a visit to your local library. Many have repair manuals in their inventory, and some offer repair manuals online.

I have a 2003 Toyota RAV4 that is beautiful except the wheels behind the hub caps are rusty. Can you give any tips on how to prevent this problem? – J.S., Saint Paul, Minn.

The trouble is the wheels on your vehicle are never washed unless the hub caps are removed. Because you live in the rust belt, where salt and chemicals fight icy roads, it’s very important to remove the hub caps and wash the steel wheels on a regular basis. A good coat of wax a couple of times a year helps, too.

Now that the wheels are rusty, remove it down to bare metal. Once it’s completely removed, refinish with a primer coat and finish coat of paint.

Because most vehicles come with aluminum alloy wheels, washing and waxing helps prevent corrosion and the pitting that naturally occurs with corrosion. Once an aluminum wheel suffers from corrosion, there are professionals who can restore the wheels to their original finish.

The heater in my 2003 Ford Taurus blows very little heat. The fan works fine at all speeds, and the air conditioner works great, but there is little

heat from the vents.

Winter is coming. I need heat. What might cause the problem? How much will it cost to fix? – L.J., email Indeed cold weather is here, and you definitely need this issue repaired.

Trouble such as this might be caused by a low coolant level in the engine. When the engine is cold, check the coolant level in the surge tank and radiator. If low, fill to the proper indicated level with a mixture of coolant and distilled water that protects against freezing to minus 40 degrees. If the level is proper, it’s possible the water pump needs replacement because of a failed impeller.

It’s also possible the heater core is blocked with sediment and corrosion. If it’s blocked, flushing the system might resolve the issue. If not, it might need replacement.

Also, it’s possible for a broken blend door or actuator in the dash to cause this condition. If so, replacement is the cure.

Additionally, a faulty control module could cause the trouble.

The cost of repair all depends upon what a technician finds.

Alpha Star adapts to changing world Crystal Lake manufacturer celebrates 25 years

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The question hasn’t fully been formed, but John Thurow sees it coming.

The president of Alpha Star Tool & Mold is planted in a small conference room toward the front of his business.

Voice a low rumble, he’s been speaking matter-of-factly about the work his industry has watched leave the country so that companies can capitalize on cheaper wages.

Thurow’s not given much indication as to how he feels about such developments, nor has he offered an opinion on the 15 or so emails a day he gets from Asian mold-makers looking to provide his labor on the cheap.

These things are facts, and he states them as such. But the unanswered – and so far unasked – question is what it all means for him and his business.

“How do you cope with that?” Thurow said. He’s posing the question for himself, but he’s also looking for reassurance from the interviewer that it’s the right question.

It is, and now it hangs in the air.

••• Thurow has made a living pouring time into things that the average human doesn’t commit even a fraction of brain activity: the tiny cap of an eye dropper; the button for a bottle of hair spray; that bar with holes that rotates on a sprinkler head.

Alpha Star makes not the plastic itself, but the steel molds needed to produce such parts in mass. They are a manufacturer for other manufacturers, about 60 percent of which are in McHenry County.

A customer designs the part they want, and then Alpha Star works off

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Mold maker Johnny Ray works at Alpha Star Tool & Mold in Crystal Lake. the design to machine steel molds for the plastic based on the manufacturer’s needs.

“I say, ‘How many do you want to make at a time?’” Thurow said. “They might say one. They might say 128.”

••• Thurow’s start came at age 20 as an apprentice in the steel mold industry. He became an engineer, then the superintendent of a different Crystal Lake plant.

In 1988, he and his wife, Audrey, decided to venture out on their own. They opened Alpha Star in an 1,800-square-foot location near Routes 14 and 31.

They moved two years later to the current location, 12,000-square-foot facility at 11 Burdent Drive, near downtown Crystal Lake. Today, Thurow estimates, the business is one of

about 300 like it in the Chicago region.

John and Audrey – the majority owner at 51 percent – employ 17 people. The number has been as high as 24.

Several reasons have contributed to that decline.

The toll of the recession – or “super recession,” as Thurow calls it – has been dramatic.

Manufacturers going overseas also have made an unavoidable impact.

Most Alpha Star customers these days buy some of their molds from Asia, Thurow said.

Alpha Star has made decisions to stay competitive. For one, management has kept the talent aboard.

Thurow said the machinists and engineers at Alpha Star are well-paid,

By LOU KESTEN The Associated Press What is the Xbox One? If you’re a video-game aficionado, you know the answer: It’s Microsoft’s latest game console, and it arrives in North America and Europe on Friday. To gamers, Xbox means cutting-edge adventures such as “Halo” and “Gears of War,” as well as the brand that brought online competition to the masses through Xbox Live.

But Microsoft wants you to think of Xbox One as more than a game machine. You can use it to watch movies on Netflix and Hulu Plus.

You can hook it up to your cable box to watch live TV. You can Skype your grandma and share family photos through the SkyDrive storage service.

Still, if you’re considering buying an Xbox One this week, you probably have one thing in mind: games.

The Xbox One is a chunky black

box that’s a little larger than its predecessor, the Xbox 360. It arrives with a respectable library of 22 titles, all sold separately. By and large, they look just as pretty as their counterparts on Sony’s PlayStation 4, which came out last week.

Both the Xbox One and the PS4 are state-of-the-art game machines, and for some, the difference will come down to price.

At $500, the Xbox One costs $100 more.

The most significant distinction between the two is the re-engineered Kinect camera that’s packaged with every Xbox. Like the one for its Xbox 360 predecessor, it lets you use voice commands and gestures to navigate on-screen menus and some apps, but it’s much more precise and responsive than before.

On the PS4, a similar camera sells for $60, but Sony’s pitching it as an accessory rather than an essential part of the experience.

See XBOX, page E2

This product image released by Microsoft shows the Xbox One.

8IN BRIEF Shopper worries, Canada costs weigh on Target NEW YORK – Target Corp.’s third-quarter profit dropped 47 percent, stung by a double whammy: a pullback from U.S. shoppers and costs related to its expansion into Canada Target, based in Minneapolis, also lowered its full-year earnings forecast Thursday. The results raise concerns about the key holiday season, which can account for anywhere from 20 percent to 40 percent of a retailer’s annual revenue.

Shares of Target fell 3.8 percent, or $2.56, to $63.92.

Unemployment benefit applications drop WASHINGTON The number of people applying for U.S. unemployment benefits fell 21,000 to a seasonally adjusted 323,000 last week, the lowest since late September and further evidence of an improving job market.

The Labor Department said Thursday the less volatile fourweek average fell for the third consecutive week to 338,500.

Next generation of viruses pose greater dangers A new virus called Cryptolocker poses such a severe risk to your data that it might be the harbinger of a new generation of computer superviruses.

Technically a Trojan horse, Cryptolocker infects Windows computers through infected email attachments.

While Mac users are not affected, they can pass on the virus, and virtual copies of Windows running on Macs can be infected.

After it slips through your security, Cryptolocker encrypts your data with a one-way algorithm that is impossible to decrypt without paying ransom to obtain the key. You have a limited time to pay or the key to your data will be destroyed.

Once infected, there’s nothing you, your computer vendor, tech support or law enforcement can do to retrieve your data. Pray for clean backups, because if it’s on your backups then those are gone too. If it’s on your network, any computer or mobile device

case. Modern viruses have the ability to ransom your data, spy on you via webcam, trace your physical location through your mobile device, and learn the intimate details of your life via social media postings. Cybercrime has gone beyond annoyance to realworld threat.

Prevention is the only way to protect yourself and your family. You cannot afford to let these new viruses gain a foothold. Not only do you need current antivirus software and software updates, you absolutely must use strong passwords that are unique on every site. Don’t click unknown links or attachments, and be wary of what you share online.

Watch for email phishing scams, which today use personalized content to pull very convincing cons.

Don’t forget antivirus for our ever-present mobile devices, which have become the Typhoid Marys of computer security. Make sure you maintain multiple clean backups so

TECH REVIEW Triona Guidry that connects can become infected or a carrier.

Antivirus programs can remove the virus but can’t decrypt your data, and if the virus is removed you can’t decrypt your data even if you do get the key. Current antivirus programs protect from the virus but all it takes is one click on a bad link or attachment and Cryptolocker, like all viruses, can slip past those precautions.

Security professionals and law enforcement recommend you not pay the ransom, but at this time there appears to be no other way to retrieve the data. However, those who have paid say that there is no guarantee all files will survive the decryption process.

Jury orders Samsung to pay Apple $290 million SAN JOSE, Calif. – A Silicon Valley jury Thursday ordered Samsung Electronics to pay Apple $290 million for copying vital iPhone and iPad features.

The verdict covers 13 older Samsung devices that a previous jury found were among 26 Samsung products that infringed Apple patents.

The previous jury awarded Apple $1.05 billion.

U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh ordered the new trial and tossed out $450 million of the damages after concluding the previous jury miscalculated the amount.

Samsung appealed that verdict and is expected to appeal the latest verdict.

A third trial is scheduled for March to consider Apple’s claims that Samsung’s newest devices on the market also copied Apple’s technology.

you can restore your data if necessary. And if you’re using Windows XP or earlier, this may be the reason you upgrade, because you can’t install modern antivirus or security updates on older computers.

If you’ve already been infected, disconnect the device from the network immediately. Reputable security sites like Sophos offer removal instructions, but you must proceed with caution. The FBI recommends that you report Cryptolocker and other Internet crime to the Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov.

By taking preventative measures, you can lessen your vulnerability to the next wave of computer viruses.

CNC operator Mirek Wojcieszek works at Alpha Star Tool & Mold in Crystal Lake.

Machines run through the night “Twenty-five percent of our business today is making molds work that our customers order overseas, primarily from Asia,” he said. “They get them back in the United States and they try to make a part with them. The part isn’t correct, so they bring their molds to us, and then ... we fix them, change them, make them work.

“In regards to change, you have to constantly adapt to where the work is. Wage wise, we cannot compete with Asia. We make an attempt to, because we run our machines without people attending to them.”

If you blink, you miss it: “In regards to change, you have to constantly adapt to where the work is.”

Alpha Star has coped by coping, by being aware and open to change. Twenty-five years since it started, it still is.

• ALPHA STAR Continued from page E1 highly specialized employees whose work is of a quality not easily replicated.

Many Alpha Star operators now keep their machines running through the night, keeping an eye on them through web-cam feeds and, in-turn, closing the productivity-per-dollar gap against Asian competitors.

“Certain things, Asia doesn’t do,” Thurow said. “[They don’t do] the sustainable quality that we do. But they’re definitely cheaper.”

••• How do you cope with that?

The question hangs until it doesn’t – two, three, four seconds. Thurow interrupts the silence with more facts.

Setting up the Xbox was easy. You connect the Kinect to the Xbox and the Xbox to the TV. You sign in or create a free Microsoft account, download some software updates and calibrate the Kinect. Despite earlier threats that the console would need to be always connected to the Internet, Microsoft now says constant connection isn’t necessary after the initial setup.

On-screen menus are simpler and less cluttered than the Xbox 360’s.

The “Home” section is dominated by a large image of your most recently opened game or app. Smaller icons show the four apps you used before that. To the left is your user profile. To the right are links to available games and Xbox Live recommendations.

The most innovative button on the Home page is called “Snap.” It lets you shift one app to the upper right corner of the screen while using another app. For example, I played “Forza Motorsport 5” on the main screen while a live broadcast of a college football game ran in the Snap window. If the gridiron action got

interesting, I could quickly switch it to the main display.

The other main sections of the user interface are “Pins,” where you can arrange icons for your favorite apps, and “Store,” where you can buy new games, movies and music.

The entire interface can be navigated by voice command with the Kinect. To watch live TV, for example, you say, “Xbox, watch TV.” To play a game like “Killer Instinct,” you say, “Xbox, go to ‘Killer Instinct.’”

The Xbox One uses custom-designed chips from Advanced Micro Devices Inc. It cannot play games for the Xbox 360, but Xbox One owners probably will want only state-of-the-art titles anyway.

After initially threatening a digital-rights scheme that would have blocked games previously played on other Xbox Ones, Microsoft reversed course and now says you’ll be able to buy, sell and trade used games as much as you want.

Microsoft promises eight times the graphical performance of the Xbox 360. The images in the games I tried are on par with the PS4’s – as detailed and realistic as anything yet produced by a livingroom console.

New Zealand Bridge is published six times a year in a small-page format. It contains the usual mix of tournament reports, quizzes, hands to bid with your partner and compare your inal contracts with top players, and a bidding panel with experts from around the globe who answer six problems.

Most magazines like to concentrate on accurate bidding and play, but do include some errors -- as in this example from New Zealand Bridge.

How would you analyze the bidding? West’s opening bid showed 9-12 points.

East’s two-club response was Stayman. And South’s twono-trump intervention indicated at least 5-5 in the minors.

Against three no-trump, West led a low heart. How many tricks do you think declarer took?

Down Under they like weak no-trumps. East sensibly used Stayman to play in two of a major. South’s overcall was crazy -- his hand was far too weak. When an opponent opens with a weak no-trump, you must bid constructively, not destructively, because your side could have the high-

card values for game. North’s raise to three no-trump was iffy with no spade stopper, but since he thought his partner had at least opening values, it was reasonable.

West led the heart two.

East won with her queen and shifted to a low spade.

West won and returned the heart jack. This allowed the defenders to take nine majorsuit tricks. South discarded badly, keeping only two clubs in each hand. So when East now led a club, West took the last four tricks in the suit for down nine!

HOROSCOPE

TODAY - Take action. Being proactive will bring the results you want. A chance to make monetary gains is within reach through investments, settlements or money that comes to you from an unexpected source.

Focus on the more obscure aspects of life and love, and you’ll find happiness.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- A positive change to what you have and what’s within reach is heading your way. A contract or proposal will improve your prospects as well as your position.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Evasiveness will lead to trouble. Face the music and move on. Pentup resentment will result in an argument if you don’t make a move based on the way you feel.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You don’t have to make abrupt alterations in order to make your point.

Stick to what has worked in the past, and your consistency will lead you to victory and peace of mind.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Go to the source and verify whatever information you’ve been given before you make a move. A change is in order, but your reasons must be valid and your enthusiasm genuine.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Look over personal papers and discuss your options with anyone who will be affected by your decision. Socializing and celebrating your accomplishments will lead to romance.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- An unsavory situation will develop if you overreact or get involved in extravagant or indulgent situations. Pace what you do, what you spend and what you say, if you want to avoid regret.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Keep your eyes open and focus on your goals. Don’t allow anyone to ruin your plans or guilt you into unreasonable demands. Step out and socialize with people who share your interests.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Short trips and participating in activities that are geared toward helping others will lead to new friendships. A close relationship will get stronger if you are attentive or romantic.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Strategy coupled with diplomacy will help you ward off controversy. Keep your distance from anyone who is unpredictable or unreasonable. Protect your money, home and possessions.
