Alleged hate crime sparks conversation

By JEFF ENGELHARDT

“The incident that took place, that’s the exact kind of thing that we are trying to educate against.

But it’s encouraging to see how the community in Crystal Lake has come to support the family.”

jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Leaders in the area’s faith community want an altercation at Hannah Beardsley Middle School that led to hate crime charges to be a catalyst for constructive conversation about embracing growing diversity.

Members of FaithBridge, an interfaith consortium aimed at promoting respect and understanding among diverse communities, hope to reach out to Hannah Beardsley to develop a program that would encourage students to learn and talk about the diverse ethnicities and cultures in the community.

The Rev. Carrie Smith, pastor at Bethany Lutheran Church and member of FaithBridge, said as the community becomes more diverse, more outreach is needed to make people of all backgrounds feel included and respected.

“We feel we can come in and offer some resources and be able to help in that way,” Smith said of a potential program at schools. “What happened shows we have a lot of work to do and need to talk to each other and learn from each other.”

Omid Babakhani, an eighth-grader at Hannah Beardsley, suffered two fractured clavicles after another student called him a Persian, headlocked him and slammed him to the ground shortly after the lunch hour on Feb. 10. The assailant was charged with aggravated assault and a

Miles add up as crews work to keep roads clear

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com

ALGONQUIN – If you were able to drive on Algonquin Road from Route 31 to Route 47 Monday, you have Bob Westman to thank.

Westman, a McHenry County Department of Transportation highway maintenance worker, will have driven close to 300 miles plowing up and down the seven-mile stretch of road after his 12- to 16-hour shift.

“With a winter like this, you can get pretty worn out,” he said.

“But it gets to be something you really like to do. You enjoy doing it. Every storm is different.”

Monday was Westman’s 27th anniversary at the McHenry County Department of Trans-

portation, but don’t expect a cake or celebration. Snow often fell heavy at times, and any moment not on the road could mean disastrous travel conditions for drivers.

“Some newscasters said we could get as much as 1 to 3 inches an hour,” he said. “That would be real hard to keep up with.”

Three and half inches of new snow was reported in Woodstock, with up to 4½ inches possible in southern parts of the county, National Weather Service meteorologist Mike Bardou said.

Illinois gubernatorial candidates back new building plan

By SARA BURNETT The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – With the largest statewide public construction program in Illinois history nearing its end, all of the 2014 candidates for governor say the state should approve another one. But their ideas on what it should look like and how to pay for it vary.

Gov. Pat Quinn, a Chicago Democrat seeking re-election, signed the current capital construction program weeks after

taking office in 2009. The sixyear, $31 billion statewide initiative was the first of its kind in about a decade, and Quinn’s office says it has been used to fix thousands of miles of roads, update transit systems and put thousands of people to work.

Quinn has said he expects the Legislature to consider a new plan this spring. He told The Associated Press his administration is still looking into how to fund it, but suggested the state could eliminate some corporate tax breaks – which he described

as “loopholes” – to come up with some of the money. Lawmakers approved video gambling and tax hikes on liquor and other products to help pay for the current building program.

“I really feel this is important if we’re going to have a strong economy,” Quinn said of a new statewide plan.

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Rutherford must release report findings Treasurer Dan Rutherford delivered a forceful, even believable defense of himself last week during a news conference hours after he was hit with a federal lawsuit alleging sexual harassment and coerced campaign work.

Rutherford made a strong case that at least some of the accusations are untrue. There were some holes in his argument, some bigger than others, but it seems obvious that some of the charges are overblown.

For instance, Ed Michalowski claims in his lawsuit that all the campaign and sexual pressure from Rutherford directly resulted in “leakage of cerebral spinal fluid in the brain,” which seems more than a bit of a stretch. Michalowski also takes a joking text message between himself and Rutherford’s campaign manager out of context. And Rutherford laid out Michalowski’s numerous financial troubles to demonstrate that the plaintiff’s need for money was driving much of the lawsuit.

That being said, I’ve worried about Rutherford’s “independent” internal investigation. Rutherford announced the investigation weeks ago when he

VIEWS Rich Miller let the media know about the potential lawsuit. Rutherford’s top people have been saying for weeks they fully expected the investigation would clear their guy. So, I was naturally concerned this would be a whitewash.

I mean, why were they so confident they’d be vindicated if people were literally lining up to spill their guts about what they knew?

I was also concerned that Rutherford would use the so-called “independent” investigation to find out what people in his office were saying about him to help with his lawsuit, so I personally didn’t think it was all that wise to cooperate with the probe.

But the investigator, who was given a $250 an hour state contract, convinced several members of Rutherford’s staff that he was on the up and up and would go wherever the facts led him.

The investigator then interviewed

several people, starting with some treasurer’s office employees who allowed Michalowski to use their names as either witnesses or corroborators.

The first person to be interviewed brought a recording device and recorded his interview. He reportedly laid out all the goods he had on Rutherford, and it wasn’t pretty.

The interviewer was apparently caught off guard by that move, and when the second person entered the room, he was reportedly denied permission to record the conversation.

Other employees then reportedly demanded during their interviews that they be allowed to record the proceedings. They were told, insiders say, that their interviews would be recorded and that the employees would each be given a copy of those recordings.

Well, the employees are still waiting for their recordings, leading them to worry that whatever they said could be twisted out of context or eliminated entirely from the record.

And then Rutherford dropped a bomb. His attorney announced last week that he would not allow the release of information gleaned from that

internal investigation. The attorney explained that the office shouldn’t be releasing information while a federal lawsuit is underway.

The explanation has a little merit.

It’s not wise for a defendant in a federal civil suit to be releasing details of an internal investigation. But Rutherford was not yet legally prohibited from doing so and he and his staff promised over and over for weeks that the results would be released no matter what.

Despite all his protestations to the contrary, the treasurer will undoubtedly wind up using all those employee interviews to glean information for his legal team about what the other side knows and where the potential minefields are.

That’s just not acceptable.

This smacks of a cover-up. If the treasurer wants to retain a shred of credibility moving forward, he ought to overrule his attorney and release the information, come what may.

Ill. Senate leader warns of $3B budget hole

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Senate President John Cullerton warned Monday of a nearly $3 billion state budget gap – including a $1.6 billion revenue dip with the expiring income tax increase – and called on Republicans running for Illinois governor to offer solutions.

Cullerton said he held a budget briefing Monday because many Republicans objected to Gov. Pat Quinn delaying his budget address by more than a month, from Feb. 19 to March 26. GOP lawmakers called it a political move because the speech now falls after the March 18 primary and Quinn is seeking re-election. Quinn has said he needed more time for long-range planning.

Cullerton said he scheduled the news conference without

8BRIEFS Illinois DCFS head pleads guilty to theft

Ethiopian co-pilot hijacks plane to Switzerland

SPRINGFIELD – The new director of the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services pleaded guilty to stealing money from clients of a Chicago social service agency 20 years ago.

The Chicago Sun-Times and WBEZ Radio reported Monday that Arthur Bishop was accused of a felony in allegedly taking more than $9,000 from substance abuse clients at the Bobby E. Wright center but pleaded guilty to misdemeanor theft in 1995.

Bishop was most recently director of the Illinois Department of Juvenile Justice. He told the state Senate during the confirmation process for that job that he was wrongly accused. Gov. Pat Quinn appointed him to the DCFS post last month.

GENEVA – It seemed like a routine overnight flight until the Ethiopian Airlines jetliner went into a dive and oxygen masks dropped from the ceiling. Only then did the terrified passengers – bound for Italy from Addis Ababa – realize something was terribly wrong.

The co-pilot had locked his captain from the cockpit, commandeered the plane and headed for Geneva, where he used a rope to lower himself out of a window, then asked for political asylum.

The jetliner carrying 200 passengers and crew took off from the Ethiopian capital on a flight to Milan and then Rome, but sent a distress message over Sudan that it had been hijacked, an Ethiopian official said.

The plane landed in Geneva at about 6 a.m. Officials said no one on the flight was injured and the hijacker was taken into custody after surrendering to Swiss police.

Missing SIU student’s family offers $15K reward CARBONDALE – The Chicago-area family of a missing Southern Illinois University student is offering a reward for information in the 19-year-old sophomore’s disappearance.

Authorities said Pravin Varughese has been missing since Wednesday night. His family says they are offering a $15,000 reward. His sister, Priya Varughese, said family members “just want him home.” She said her brother, a cousin and a roommate were at a party the night he disappeared.

Carbondale Police Sgt. Rich Brunner said officers have searched for Pravin Varughese using dogs and by air. He said the searches have covered much of the SIU campus and the city. Brunner said friends and police handed out fliers Sunday. Vigils also have been planned.

– which faces legal challenges – wouldn’t factor into the budget and he predicted difficult choices ahead.

The Senate president didn’t offer his own ideas, aside from saying everything is on the table. That includes extending an income tax increase that expires in January 2015. He said Republican gubernatorial candidates – particularly state Sens. Kirk Dillard and Bill Brady – should be more active in budgeting, especially since the plan lawmakers have to approve by the end of May extends into 2015. The other GOP candidates are Illinois Treasurer Dan Rutherford and businessman Bruce Rauner.

“This isn’t a budget just for Pat Quinn. ... It’s not theoretical,” Cullerton said. “[Some GOP candidates] are in the Senate. They’re campaigning. ... We need to have, as part of that debate, what’s their solu-

tion for this $3 billion hole?”

Republican candidates said Quinn has to offer solutions first.

“Quinn’s the governor.

I’m not,” Dillard said. “Delaying the budget is something a rookie governor does – not after five years. He did so for political purposes to see who his opponent would be and give the public half of the time it would have to review [the budget].”

Brady said Quinn’s delaying the address doesn’t send a message of confidence to businesses. Rauner spokesman Mike Schrimpf said the budget briefing with another top Democrat asking for bipartisan help was an indicator of Quinn’s failed leadership.

Quinn, a Chicago Democrat who faces one lesser-known primary challenger, has said he needed time to develop a five-year spending blueprint.

His office says governors have pushed back budget speeches in the past. Quinn spokeswoman Brooke Anderson said Quinn inherited a fiscal crisis and has been “rebuilding the state one hard step at a time.”

She said Quinn has cut state spending by more than $1 billion, overhauled Medicaid and signed a pension overhaul.

Republican leaders said the news conference showed poor leadership for Democrats.

“Considering Governor Quinn and the Democrat majority’s dismal record, it is no surprise they would try to deflect from their responsibility,” Senate Republican Leader Christine Radogno said in a statement. “The underlying problems in state government have to be fixed in order for any budget to succeed.”

She said lawmakers must enact policies that will boost jobs.

Egypt: Sinai bombing raises worries on tourism CAIRO – A deadly suicide bombing that hit a bus of South Korean Christians visiting Biblical sites in Egypt and Israel has raised fears that Islamic militants battling security forces in the Sinai Peninsula are turning to target foreign tourists, a potential new blow to a struggling industry vital to Egypt’s economy.

Although it has proven resilient to past attacks, Egypt’s slumping tourism is already suffering from three years of political turmoil that has scared away visitors. After hopes of a rebound, last year saw the fewest visitors yet since the 2011 uprising that toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak.

Former SIU professor takes helm as president

Syrian rebels name new military commander

SPRINGFIELD – A former Illinois state superintendent of education has been chosen as Southern Illinois University’s new president.

The SIU board of trustees announced Monday that Randy J. Dunn will be the university’s eighth president, replacing Glenn Poshard. Poshard is retiring in June.

Dunn is currently president of Youngstown State University in Ohio.

Randal Thomas, chairman of the SIU board, said Dunn “has both the skills and the background to ensure that SIU continues to live up to its mission of providing a quality education.”

Dunn was chairman of SIU-Carbondale’s education administration department in 2004 when he took leave to serve as state superintendent of Illinois’ public schools.

He left that post in 2006 to become president at Murray State University in Kentucky.

BEIRUT – The coalition of Syrian opposition groups in exile has appointed a new army chief, following a year of seeing their influence fade among fighters within Syria.

The Western-backed Syrian National Coalition said Tuesday that it was appointing Brigadier Abd al-Ilah al-Bashir to head the Free Syrian Army.

He replaces Gen. Salim Idris, seen as a secular-leaning moderate.

In a statement, the coalition said they hoped al-Bashir would strengthen the role of the FSA. The switch comes after a series of so-far failed talks in Switzerland between officials loyal to President Bashar Assad and exiled opposition activists to try to resolve the three-year war.

It also comes after at least a year of the FSA losing influence to other, more hard-line rebel groups, including al-Qaida affiliates and spinoffs.

Opposition to NSA spying unites liberals, tea partyers The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Hoyt Sparks says he has no use for liberal Democrats and their “socialistic, Marxist, communist” ways.

Toni Lewis suspects tea party Republicans are “a bunch of people who probably need some mental health treatment.”

Politically speaking, the

Who or what could get them thinking the same?

Edward Snowden and the National Security Agency.

By exposing the NSA’s vast surveillance web, Snowden created a link between tea partyers and liberals – two tribes camped on opposite

sides of the nation’s political chasm.

These people to the right and left of mainstream America sound a lot alike now.

Sparks, a federal retiree in the Blue Ridge mountain town of Sparta and a political independent, condemns the NSA programs as “a breach of privacy which violates the Constitution.”

Lifetime Democrat Lewis,

a social worker in the city of Brockton, near Boston, says, “When we’re violating the rights of U.S. citizens, I think that’s a dangerous line to be walking.”

Whether they are Republicans, Democrats or independents, almost half of Americans say they support the tea party movement or call themselves liberal.

moderate Republican or Democratic peers, tea partyers and liberals are significantly more likely to oppose the collection of millions of ordinary citizens’ telephone and Internet data, an Associated PressGfK poll shows.

By a 2-to-1 margin, these two groups say the government should put protecting citizens’ rights and freedoms ahead of protecting them from

terrorists.

Nearly 6 in 10 Republicans support the tea party movement.

Nearly 4 in 10 Democrats call themselves liberals. Combined, they are buoying a coalition of conservative and liberal lawmakers pushing to rein in the NSA, while party leaders balk at anything that might weaken the agency’s ability to foil terrorists.

A pair of McHenry County Department of Transportation plows patrol Algonquin Road on Monday near the Route 47 intersection in Huntley.

Salt mixture pioneered in McHenry County • DRIVERS Continued from page A1 With pavement as wide as Algonquin Road, it takes two snowplows at a time to clear the street. Westman takes the lead and plows the far left side of the lane, with a plow several feet behind plowing the right side.

The plows also are dispensing a salt mixture, pioneered

by McHenry County DOT Su-

pervisor Mark DeVries, made of up 80 percent salt brine, 10 percent chloride and 10 percent beet juice.

DeVries travels the world instructing other transportation departments how to effectively use the road treatment “He came up with the liquid – the super mix,” Westman said. “We started making our own brine. We have out own blending system.

We make our own blends. he

was very instrumental in [the road treatment].”

Temperatures are supposed to creep above freezing, with highs predicted at 36 degrees on Tuesday. Wind gusts could be up to 25 mph. There is the potential for freezing rain Wednesday night into Thursday morning.

The first day of spring is March 20.

FaithBridge to discuss outreach at next meeting • CONVERSATION Continued from page A1 hate crime and was transported to Kane County Juvenile Detention Facility.

Dr. Fazal Khan, co-president of FaithBridge and president of the American Muslim Community Organization, said the incident is what FaithBridge has been educating to prevent since it started.

The commonality the different religious leaders find in FaithBridge to form a community built on respect and understanding is the same commonality people need to find in neighborhoods, schools and workplaces, he said.

“This incident has revealed a need,” Khan said. “The incident that took place, that’s the exact kind of thing that we are

trying to educate against. But it’s encouraging to see how the community in Crystal Lake has come to support the family. That’s really what a community is and what neighbors do and it’s heartwarming to see that.”

The Rev. Gilbert FriendJones, FaithBridge member and minister at First Congregational Church, said the desire to reach out to Hannah Beardsley is not from a lack of faith in the area’s public schools, which he praised for combating bullying and hostile behavior.

He said of the roughly 100 essays submitted to FaithBridge for its Martin Luther King Jr. event, all four winners were from Hannah Beardsley, showing positive messages are reaching students.

But he said the lack of inter-

action between people of different background in all aspects of the community trickles down to younger generations.

While diversity has grown in the area, he said many people still insulate themselves from interactions with diverse populations.

“We have diverse populations that don’t talk to each other and don’t know much about each other. Where is the dialogue going on?” FriendJones said. “There is a perception that diversity is more of an urban phenomenon, but that’s because people don’t always see what is around them.”

Smith said the board would discuss the Hannah Beardsley incident at its next meeting Monday and hope to start develop a plan to reach out to schools.

Rauner and state Treasurer Dan Rutherford – said in response to an AP questionnaire that upgrading the state’s infrastructure is key to attracting and keeping business and residents in Illinois.

Dillard noted the state has a backlog of projects waiting to be completed.

“This is not good for economic development or the future of our infrastructure,” the Hinsdale lawmaker said.

The most recent analysis of the state’s needs by the American Society of Civil Engineers concluded nearly three-quarters of Illinois’ roads are in poor or mediocre condition and almost one-fifth of its bridges are either “structurally deficient” or “functionally obsolete.”

In the Illinois State Board of Education’s most recent survey, school districts reported more than $7 billion in capital needs.

Dillard, who voted for the 2009 plan, said any new capital program should be paid for through a mix of bonds and “pay-as-you-go.” He said he would consider a combination of options for funding, including user fees and private investment.

Earlier this year, Dillard also proposed cutting the

state’s 5 percent sales tax on gas and using the remaining sales tax revenue as backing for up to $1 billion in bonds to fix bridges and roads. That option would reduce revenue in the state’s general fund budget by about $450 million – money Dillard said would be made up by growing the economy.

Brady voted for a current program – known as “Illinois Jobs Now” – but against a separate bill that allowed video gambling to help fund it.

“What we have seen recently from the Democrat administration is not a Road Plan, or a Capital Plan, or an Infrastructure Plan, and it certainly is not a Jobs Plan just because it has ‘jobs’ in its title,” the Bloomington lawmaker said. “It is simply a Spending Plan.”

He said he would task his budget office with conducting a thorough assessment of Illinois’ capital needs and coming up with a 30-year plan for when to complete them, including sources of funding to pay the bonds. One funding source should be collecting sales tax from out-of-state companies that sell goods online to buyers in Illinois.

The Illinois Supreme Court recently threw out a law that allowed the state to collect that so-called “Amazon” tax.

Brady also said lawmakers should stop using money from the state road fund

– which is supposed to be used for improving roads and bridges – for other purposes.

Rauner, of Winnetka, said he supports a “responsible” capital bill but also thinks Illinois needs to look toward “other creative infrastructure options.” He points to Indiana, where government has partnered with private investors to complete projects such as a freeway bridge over the Ohio River. A developer used its own funds to construct the bridge in exchange for annual payments from the state for 35 years.

“While not every project makes sense for a public-private partnership, they can take some of our largest projects off the books, freeing up resources for other areas of the state,” Rauner said.

Rutherford said the state needs “an ongoing process” that includes updating Internet, electric and natural gas services. He said he would use “a bipartisan process of integrated planning, improved system efficiency and sound, sustainable funding principles.” The Chenoa official’s spokesman declined this week to specify what those funding principles could include.

Tio Hardiman of Hillside, who is challenging Quinn in the Democratic primary, said he would seek federal funds and raise the cost of tolls to finance a construction plan.

First step is registering Tuesday is the deadline to register to vote in the March 18 primary election.

If you are not registered, please take the time and register. There is no greater right we have as citizens than voting.

Too many people take it for granted. Therefore, not enough people are involved in deciding who represents us in local, state and federal government.

A new state For the record law also allows 17-year-olds to It’s every adult American’s register and vote right and duty to vote. in next month’s primary as long as he or she will be 18 before the Nov. 4 general election.

If you are a new McHenry County resident or have changed addresses, you must register at the county clerk’s office, 667 Ware Road, Room 107, Woodstock. You’ll need two forms of identification, with at least one bearing a name and address.

County voters this year will elect all statewide constitutional offices, their representatives in the Illinois and U.S. houses of representatives, one U.S. senator and the 33rd District state senator. They also will elect two representatives to their McHenry County Board district and decide the countywide offices of county clerk, treasurer, sheriff and regional superintendent of schools.

All county voters will face a binding referendum asking whether the County Board chairman should be popularly elected. Other governments with referendums on the ballot include Algonquin, Bull Valley, Fox Lake, Johnsburg District 12, Huntley Park District and Nunda Township.

It’s every adult American’s right and duty to vote. It’s a cornerstone of our society that we be led by a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Your vote is your voice, and if you don’t use it, you have no right to complain.

Comcast, Time Warner deal must preserve open Internet No doubt about it, Comcast Corp.’s $45 billion purchase of Time Warner Cable Inc. would create a media and entertainment colossus, with some 30 million subscribers and a dominant position in the U.S. cable TV market.

Still, that’s no reason for regulators to intervene.

The Federal Communications Commission and the Justice Department should forget the fading cable TV business and focus instead on the deal’s effect on high-speed Internet services and content. That’s where all the entrepreneurial action is – and where the U.S.’s economic future rests.

As Comcast and Time Warner have been quick to point out, cable companies don’t compete against each other, so merging the two biggest wouldn’t necessarily reduce competition.

For cable providers, the competitive threat is more from satellite TV and telecommunications giants. And the biggest threat of all comes from subscription streaming services that deliver movies, sports and TV shows to laptops and mobile devices – whenever and wherever viewers find it convenient to watch.

Streaming services such as these need content, of course. But they also depend on a network – in two ways: First, they need an open Internet that doesn’t discriminate against different types of content; second, they need broadband providers devoted to improving their technology. Regulators should ensure that the Comcast-Time Warner merger won’t threaten either one.

Comcast already is the largest Internet service provider in the United States. This merger would only cement that position. Comcast’s bundle of Internet, cable and telephone services is a formidable hurdle for any startup, even one offering superior Web speeds or lower prices (or both).

Comcast can be expected, of course, to use its monopoly position to “encourage” – that’s one word for it – customers to use more of its services. Already, it charges some subscribers a surcharge for exceeding a monthly cap on data downloads, but not for downloads through Comcast’s own Xfinity online video service.

It’s an open question whether this behavior violates the open Internet principle that Comcast promised to follow in order to get its acquisition of TV network/movie studio NBC Universal approved in 2011. The FCC has yet to rule on the matter, but at the very least, Comcast deserves a close interrogation on these and related matters.

To win approval for the NBC Universal deal, Comcast committed to following so-called net neutrality standards through 2017. Regulators should extend that commitment for several more years to give Web-based rivals time to build content and improve distribution techBloomberg View nologies.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Liberal response To the Editor: Regarding William Parrot’s letter (“Unaffordable liberalism,” Feb. 7).

I can’t speak for all liberals or progressives, but those I know and I believe in fiscal responsibility, but not just on the backs of those who can afford it less.

Over the past 40 years, monied interests have become more organized at taking the government back from the rest of us, co-opting both parties. They’ve concentrated ownership of the media and created biased think tanks to control public discussion.

Even most of the “liberal” media have to look over their shoulders because their support is from corporations. This way they’ve weakened unions, so wages haven’t kept up with inflation, so people can’t help the economic recovery so much.

The monied interests have attacked and weakened the welfare state while decrying any reduction in tax breaks and other support of the longstanding corporate welfare. They use red-herring social and other issues; innuendo; half-truths or just plain lies; and desperate, sometimes underhanded and possibly illegal tactics to bully or brainwash people into supporting whatever they want to do and distract from other things

they’re doing.

Mr. Obama has let Congress (both parties) get away with a lot, but now it seems he may be learning some.

The column will be surely missed by me. I love history.

In one of Joseph Morton’s columns this past year, I learned why a certain point in Rhode Island, off Narragansett Bay, was named as such. It was Gaspee Plateau, and as a child I lived in Warwick, near Gaspee Plateau. I learned that a ship named The Gaspee had gone down there. Until his column, I never knew why it was called that.

So, from a 19-year Crystal Lake resident, who has lived in Rhode Island, New York, Georgia and now Florida, I do enjoy your newspaper.

I am not returning until it is warm up here. I will miss the Assisi spring luncheon and fashion show and other events at the Raue Center, but I can run my business from down there, and the weather is much warmer.

Pamela Gillis Crystal Lake

I’m breaking up with you, Old Man Winter OK, winter.

That’ll do.

It’s been real. It’s been lovely.

It has been more than enough.

But do you not take a hint?

I’m serious now. Hit the road.

Or, rather, get off the road so I can drive again. Here are your things. Here is your salt. Here are your scarf and your boots and your puddles and slush. I don’t care what the groundhog said. You need to leave.

It was cute at first, but I am done with it. I’m over. I am through. My feet are cold. My shoes are soaked. Shoo. Scram.

Every time I turn to the weather lately, a little something in me dies. This isn’t even perpetual winter, but I now understand why those people on “Game of Thrones” are in such foul moods all the time. How did Narnia survive this? If I wanted to live surrounded by ice and snow all the time, I would move to Hoth, where at least I could be eaten by a wampa and put out of my misery. How did our ancestors cope? I can barely deal with a few weeks of ice, let alone an age.

VIEWS Alexandra Petri Stop snowing.

Snow is like a manic pixie dream girl: fun and whimsical when you encounter it only through the barrier of a movie screen – but absolute misery to have to put up with in real life.

Even complaining about the weather loses its cachet after several months. “This is abominable snow, man.” “You say that every day.” “I mean it every day.” (A tense silence ensues.) “We need to get out of this house.” “I know.”

How many stories do you know about people cooped up in places because of deep snowfall?

How many stories where something good happens to those people? The first draft of this piece consisted entirely of the words “All work and snow play makes Jack a dull boy” typed over and over again.

It used to be picturesque.

When we started this thing

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

together, all your little quirks seemed cute. The way you froze the puddles and prompted everyone to wear scarves and skip school. It was endearing.

“I hate summer,” I agreed.

“Summer is clearly inferior to winter. Winter is tights season.

Winter is the season of lights and holidays, when Scandinavians feel most at home.”

But that initial infatuation phase is over. Everything about you bothers me. Your drizzles.

How you go from tepid to icecold with a snap. How you promise me one thing and deliver another. How you keep shutting down my travel plans and freezing my appendages.

At first I thought it was me.

I thought I was a wimp and that I was inadequately prepared for Real Life and Real Weather.

But no. It’s not me. Everything about you is terrible. All the tepid consolations you afford are overrated. Hot drinks? I have had enough hot drinks to last a lifetime. Snow? Snow is just glorified rain. Alpine sports?

Don’t make me laugh. More snow? Days off school? I don’t

want anything you can give me anymore.

You are a vortex of cold and negativity, and I want you out of my life and out of my hemisphere.

Take your drab long coats and your mittens and your gloves. Take your snowmen.

Take your mufflers and your wool socks.

People need to go to school.

People need to get their lives together. People need to get on with it. You are holding us back.

Even more so because this is the part of the East Coast where “winter” means “an inch of snow, tops – anything more and we’ll coin a new term that ends in -mageddon or -pocalypse.”

We get it. We are wimps. If we were on the paleo diet, it would consist of our starving to death because we were terrible hunters. We couldn’t spear a mammoth if we tried. You’ve made your point.

Just make it stop.

Costs rise for Huntley plan Downtown improvements carry price tag of $2.1M and counting

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – The latest plan that would revamp historic downtown Huntley with added parking and landscape will cost $2.1 million and counting.

In the coming months, village officials will need to research the price to relocate overhead utility lines and level the sidewalk along Main Street, between Woodstock and Church streets. They then would need to figure out how to pay for it.

The two major “obstacles” will likely add significant costs to the downtown streetscape plan that consultants from Chicago-based Houseal Lavigne estimated would already cost $2.1 million, said Charles Nordman, the village’s development services director, during a recent Village Board meeting.

“As we move forward through the process ... we believe those are going to be significant costs as part of the plan,” Nordman said.

The plan’s $2.1 million price tag covers the cost to beautify intersec-

tions at Route 47, extend and create new sidewalks, install a downtown clock and reconfigure parking around the village square. It would also leave Coral Street as a two-way street.

The latest version fine-tunes de-

sign concepts board members discussed during a meeting earlier this fall. The board has been planning a downtown makeover since 2010 and created a special tax district for the area last year.

But the plan’s focus is the Main Street corridor, Nordman said. Officials need to move utility lines, level the sidewalks between Woodstock and Church streets, and create wider sidewalks on both ends of the corridor.

McHenry moves to consolidate Two Democrats face off in its wastewater treatment plants 14th Congressional primary

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com McHENRY – The elimination of McHenry’s primary but aging wastewater treatment plant will cost the city an estimated $21 million.

City staff and the city’s engineering firm have proposed moving ahead on the project to take advantage of the low interest rates available through the state’s revolving loan fund and a potentially expedited approval process that would allow the city to finish the consolidation process before its current agreement with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency is up.

If the McHenry City Council

moves ahead with the project, the improvements could cost the average wastewater user $150 a year over the next 20 years, assuming no new system users, City Administrator Derik Morefield said.

The council in a 6-1 vote authorized the city’s engineering firm, HR Green, to draw up a professional agreement, which would then be brought to the council for approval.

The sole no vote came from Alderman Andy Glab, who questioned why the city wasn’t requesting cost estimates from other firms.

Most towns use their designated engineer for such projects instead of hiring another firm, city attorney David McArdle said.

Anderson, who is retired from his role providing administrative support for cancer researchers, lists economic recovery and job creation as his main priority for the district.

District 12 to host building tours ahead of referendum

Rauner speaks to crowd in Batavia

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – One month from now, District 12 voters will decide whether the school district will get to take out up to $41 million in new bonds.

The money would go toward building improvements and maintenance at three of the district’s schools and relocating James C. Bush Elementary School students to another building.

The district is hosting a series of open houses at each of the schools, giving tours of spaces typically not open to the public – including mechanical areas, cafeterias and kitchens, and areas where heating and air conditioning units are kept.

The tours also will cover classrooms and other learning spaces.

The district’s architects will share information about what improvements and maintenance would be covered by the bonds, which would be paid back by keeping the bond portion of prop-

erty owners’ tax bill the same instead of dropping it as currently expected.

The district has put together a tentative but fairly comprehensive list of site, exterior and interior improvements – updated wiring, paving parking lots and replacing heating and air conditioning units – and possible enhancements for the district’s four schools although the board decided last month to stop using James C. Elementary School as a school.

A tour of Johnsburg Junior High School is scheduled for 7 p.m. Wednesday, and one of James C. Bush Elementary School will follow at 7 p.m. Feb. 26. The final tour will be of Johnsburg High School at 7 p.m. March 4.

The tour of Ringwood Primary Center was held earlier this month.

More information about the referendum is available at the district’s website, www.johnsburg12.org, under the “Community Opportunities” section.

Hosta wants to bring Whirlpool to the area • 14TH Continued from page B1 The economy and transportation are key issues for Hosta, but his main goal is protecting U.S. industries.

He said some of the recent layoffs in business are a direct result of 20 years of poor foreign trade policies.

Financial incentives could play a role in bringing more manufacturing jobs to the U.S. and filling up vacant buildings in the area, Hosta said.

“This is how you get the economy going again,” Hosta said. “I would fight tooth and nail to get Whirlpool here [to the district].”

Hosta said that he likes Anderson, but he thinks that he is more business-minded and aggressive than his opponent.

Hosta started his custom bedding business in 1987 for interior designers, and saw firsthand the effects of a struggling economy.

Hosta said he plans to spend a few hundred dollars, at most, during his primary campaign.

Election Central Follow the local, state and national races at NWHerald.com/ election.

He said that without special interest support, he is not beholden to anyone.

Anderson also touted a Washington outsider stance, adding that he’s not a career politician.

Anderson said he is the better choice in the March 18 primary because he considers himself a pragmatist open to dialogue.

He said he has a broader concern and understanding than Hosta of the issues facing 14th district residents.

“We have too many people in Congress driving by ideology,” Anderson said.

“I’m willing to talk with anyone about any issue.”

The 14th District covers seven counties, including Kane, DuPage, DeKalb, Will, McHenry, Lake and Kendall.

Johnson: New TIF district still hasn’t generated enough • HUNTLEY Continued from page B1 The additional research would help officials better define the costs and the ways they could pay for the improvements, s a i d V i l l a g e Dave Johnson Manager Dave Johnson.

The newly created tax increment financing district for the area still hasn’t generated revenue, he said.

The downtown TIF district

takes excess property taxes from the downtown area and puts the dollars into the village’s hands for redevelopment projects.

Because of the funding questions, the initial downtown improvements may take time, Johnson said.

Officials could look to fund the engineering work needed to move the utility lines and level the Main Street pavement in the village’s 2015 budget, he said. “(The concept plan) is really about putting the pieces in place when the financial opportunities come into place,” Johnson said.

By CHARLES MENCHACA cmenchaca@shawmedia.com BATAVIA – Residents, elected officials and campaign supporters Saturday filled Water Street Studios to hear Republican candidate for governor Bruce Rauner speak.

About 180 people took in 50 minutes of Rauner, including his main stump speech and a question-and-answer session in the studio’s main gallery space rented out by local volunteers.

Near the top of his speech, Rauner listed his four main priorities – creating more jobs, lowering taxes, providing great education and installing term limits for elected officials.

Rauner’s main theme of shaking up Springfield appeared to resonate with much of the audience. Those in attendance clapped and nodded as he spoke about the troubles that have plagued the state for decades.

Rauner repeated several times that the state of Illinois is an emotional issue for him.

He also emphasized that he doesn’t need anything from Springfield and can’t be in-

“I’m [financially] independent,” Rauner said to the crowd. “I don’t need anything from anybody. ... What I need is a prosperous, booming Illinois.”

On jobs, Rauner said he will continue to reach out to other Republican governors to see how they have returned jobs to their state.

He also wants to form a task force that would include leaders from Kane and other counties to tackle spending.

Unions were a persistent theme during Rauner’s visit.

Rauner said union leaders hold too much influence in Springfield and made generic accusations of corruption in organized labor.

When criticized by Chicago Teachers Union President

Karen Lewis for being a capitalist, Rauner said he was proud of that and claims he spent years helping teachers in his career as a venture capitalist in charge of growing union pensions.

Retired special education teacher Joan Kolcz of Geneva pressed Rauner on his strategy for pension reform during the session.

Rauner said he would freeze the current system and ensure longtime and retired teachers wouldn’t lose their contributions and then put together a 401k-style plan for current teachers going forward.

After the speech, Kolcz said she was pleased with his answer as long as he is telling the truth.

Kolcz said she still is undecided for the March 18 primary but is starting to lean toward Rauner.

Nick Rentas of Geneva said he plans to vote for Rauner.

He wondered about Rauner’s connection with young voters because the crowd seemed to skew 50 and older, but overall he was pleased with the turnout and Rauner’s presentation.

600 units of blood a day are needed to supply region • BLOOD Continued from page B1 The organization, which provides blood to nearly 50 hospitals in a 12-county region, says it is 2,000 units below normal levels for this time of year. Blood donated in McHenry County goes to Centegra hospitals.

Kaminski says 600 units of blood a day are needed to supply hospitals in their region.

Because blood can’t be manufactured, any shortage makes donors that much more critical.

Each person who donates, Kaminski said, can save up to three lives with their donation.

Tuesday will be Legel’s 38th donation when she donates blood at a drive organized by her friend, Ellen Hanson, and through Heartland Blood Centers.

Parts of wastewater treatment plant date back to 1950s • McHENRY Continued from page B1 The project’s inception dates back to 2005 when the city received a violation from the IEPA for discharging too much waste into the Fox River, Chad Pieper of HR Green said.

Repairs were made in 2006 to bring the plant back into compliance, but to address the underlying issues at the plant – which dates back in parts to

the 1950s – the city proposed consolidating its two plants over the next 10 years, he said.

When the economy collapsed in 2007, plans to consolidate and expand the southern treatment plant were shelved, although the city did begin the consolidation process, diverting 30 percent of wastewater to the southern plant and 100 percent of solids for final treatment.

The central plant still serves two-thirds of the system’s users, Pieper said.

The next stage as laid out

by HR Green would cost an estimated $2.02 million to $2.68 million in engineering and $15.5 million to $18.6 million in construction and demolition costs, according to a memo from HR Green to the city staff.

These costs would need to be taken on by the city regardless of whether it moves ahead with the project now, Pieper said, adding that if the project is put off, the city also would have to pay to for continuing

NUNDA TOWNSHIP: ALLEGED CODE VIOLATIONS

The lawsuit – filed Nov. 21 – says the township highway department violated two county ordinances when it worked on a culvert and diverted stormwater runoff without Commissioner Mike Lesperance obtaining the proper county permits over the summer.

The McHenry County Stormwater Management division took notice of the issue after township resident Douglas Mann was concerned the township’s work would cause more flooding on his property and proper engineering studies were not done.

Mann, who lives at 3007 Garden Lane in Crystal Lake, said flooding issues arose from the spring storms last year when easements on the north and south side of Running Iron Drive were overwhelmed and caused damage to some property on the east side of Garden Lane.

8BUSINESS ROUNDUP Goodwill Industries to host local job fair

By SAM HANANEL The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Most Americans with intellectual or developmental disabilities remain shut out of the workforce, despite changing attitudes and billions spent on government programs to help them.

Even when they find work, it’s often part time, in a dead-end job or for pay well below the minimum wage.

Employment is seen as crucial for improving the quality of life for people with these disabilities and considered a benchmark for measuring the success of special education programs. Yet the jobs picture is as bleak now it was more than a decade ago.

As 44 percent of intellectually disabled adults are in the labor force, either employed or looking for work, while just 34 percent are actually working, according to a survey by Special Olympics and conducted by Gallup and the University of Massachusetts at Boston. That compares with 83 percent of nondisabled, working-age adults who are in the workforce.

“The needle has not changed in more than four decades,” said Gary Siperstein, professor at the University of Massachusetts and one of the authors of the study. “We just can’t move the barometer. And we’ve invested a lot of resources with lots of good programs around the country.”

Intellectual disability can include conditions such as autism or Down syndrome. But the vast majority of cases are those with limited intellectual capacity – generally an IQ of about 75 or less – and limitations in handling basic life skills, such as counting money or taking public transportation.

About 28 percent of working-age adults with intellectual disabilities have never held a job. Even those who do manage to find jobs often end up working only part time and get lower pay than workers without disabilities, the study found. On the positive side, 62 percent of disabled people who work in a competitive setting have been there three years or more, showing they can work and stay with it.

“A lot of the problem has to do with low expectations,” said Lynnae Ruttledge, a member of the National Council on Disability, an independent federal agency that advises the government on disability policy.

“Schoolteachers don’t have high expectations, and parents tend to be very protective of their children.”

But attitudes are changing, she said. There are now more programs to help disabled children to gain work experience while still in school, making it easier to find a job. Many intellectually disabled people work in fast food, and retail chains such as Walgreens, Best Buy and Safeway have stepped up to hire them.

Another hurdle is that about 30 percent of intellectually disabled people who work do so in sheltered workshops, where they perform basic tasks but are segregated from nondisabled workers. They can legally be paid less than the minimum wage under a 1938 federal law that allows wages to be based on comparing their productivity level with that of a nondisabled worker.

Maureen Grey poses for a photo in Chicago. For many older Americans who lost jobs during the recession, the quest for health care has been one obstacle after another. Grey, a 58-year-old Chicagoan, finally saw a doctor this month after a fall in September left her in constant pain. Laid off twice from full-time jobs in the past five years, she saw her income drop from $60,000 to $17,800 a year. Now doing temp work, she was uninsured for 18 months before she chose a marketplace plan for $68 a month.

‘I was so relieved’ Older Americans are early winners under health law

By CARLA K. JOHNSON The Associated Press CHICAGO – For many older Americans who lost jobs during the recession, the quest for health care has been one obstacle after another.

They’re unwanted by employers, rejected by insurers, struggling to cover rising medical costs and praying to reach Medicare age before a health crisis.

These luckless people, most in their 50s and 60s, have emerged this month as early winners under the nation’s new health insurance system. Along with their peers who are self-employed or whose jobs do not offer insurance, they have been signing up for coverage in large numbers, submitting new-patient forms at doctor’s offices and filling prescriptions at pharmacies.

“I just cried I was so relieved,” said Maureen Grey, a 58-year-old Chicagoan who finally saw a doctor this month after a fall in September left her in constant pain. Laid off twice from full-time jobs in the past five years, she saw her income drop from $60,000 to $17,800 a year. Now doing temp work, she was uninsured for 18 months before she chose a marketplace plan for $68 a month.

Americans ages 55 to 64 make up 31 percent of new enrollees in the new health insurance marketplaces, the largest segment by age group, according to the federal government’s latest figures. They represent a glimmer of success for President Barack Obama’s beleaguered law.

The Great Recession hit them hard, and for some its impact has lingered.

Aging boomers are more likely to be in debt as they enter retirement than were previous generations, with many having bought more expensive homes with smaller down payments, said economist Olivia Mitchell of University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School. One in five has unpaid medical bills, and 17 percent are underwater with their home values.

Fourteen percent are uninsured.

As of December, 46 percent of older

“Now there’s the peace of mind of knowing the limits of my obligation if I have catastrophic health needs.”

Glenn Nishimura Consultant jobseekers were among the long-term unemployed compared with less than 25 percent before the recession.

And those financial setbacks happened just as their health care needs became more acute. Americans in their mid-50s to mid-60s are more likely to be diagnosed with diabetes than other age groups, younger or older, accounting for 3 in 10 of the adult diabetes diagnoses in the United States each year. And every year after age 50, the rate of cancer diagnosis climbs.

The affordable coverage is “an answer to a prayer really,” said Laura Ingle, a 57-year-old Houston attorney who had been denied coverage repeatedly because she has sarcoidosis, an autoimmune disease. She recently had back surgery for a painful condition that’s been bothering her for months.

One night in September, 64-yearold Glenn Nishimura woke up with wrenching pain that sent him to the emergency room.

It was his gallbladder. A doctor recommended surgery.

Instead, Nishimura went home.

A consultant to nonprofit groups, he was self-employed and uninsured.

“I checked myself out because I had no idea what this was going to cost,” the Little Rock, Ark., man said.

“They didn’t want me to go, but they didn’t stop me.”

Nishimura lost his coverage after leaving a full-time position with benefits in 2007, thinking he could land another good job. The recession ruined that plan. After COBRA coverage expired, he was denied coverage because of high blood pressure and other conditions.

He made it until September with-

out a major illness. A second night of gallbladder pain and a chat with a doctor persuaded him to have the surgery. After getting the bills, he negotiated the fees down to $12,000, which he considered “a big hit, but it could have been worse.” The average cost of a gallbladder removal in Arkansas was listed at three times that.

Nishimura dipped into his savings to cover the bill.

In December, he chose a bronze plan on the new insurance marketplace that costs him $285 a month after a tax credit. The deductible is $6,300, so he hopes he doesn’t have to use his coverage. He can get on Medicare in April, just in time for his annual checkup.

“Now there’s the peace of mind of knowing the limits of my obligation if I have catastrophic health needs,” he said.

Dr. Bernd Wollschlaeger said he’s noticed a recent increase in patients in this age group at his family practice in Miami. Lots of them have untreated chronic conditions that have progressed to an advanced stage.

“Many have delayed necessary treatments due to costs and expect a total and quick workup on their first visit,” he said, adding they want referrals to specialists and tests including colonoscopies and mammograms.

The abundance of older patients signing up is no surprise to the Obama administration, which conducted internal research last year that showed the “sick, active and worried” would be the most responsive to messages urging them to seek coverage.

Signing up younger, healthier enrollees is seen as more difficult, but crucial to keeping future insurance rates from increasing. The administration said those age groups may put off enrolling until closer to the March 31 deadline.

“We have always anticipated that those with more health needs would sign up early on, and that young and healthy people would wait until the end,” administration spokeswoman Joanne Peters said.

Be positive and surround yourself with positive people I, like many others, have made a promise to surround myself with positive people.

I have recently read “How Full is Your Bucket?” written by Tom Rath and Donald O. Clifton, and it is so true how we need more positive people in our lives to keep our buckets full.

As mentioned in this book, we have about 20,000 individual moments every day in our busy lives.

How we respond to these moments, whether they are negative or positive, play a huge role in our emotional well-being.

A positive moment tends to fill our bucket, and a negative one will deplete it.

When you surround yourself with positive people, your bucket will remain full.

White House: Stimulus bill was good for economy RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. – The White House said a costly spending bill President Barack Obama signed into law five years ago Monday was good for the economy and helped the U.S. avoid another Great Depression.

Republicans are taking a dimmer view, arguing the $787 billion economic stimulus bill amounted to too much spending for too few results.

The White House says in a new report that the bill, among other things, saved or created an average of 1.6 million jobs a year between 2009 and 2012.

Obama signed the massive spending bill a few weeks into the job to help the economy recover from its worst downturn in a generation.

Republican House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio said too many Americans are still asking “Where are the jobs?” the administration promised.

Starr, Partners Group lead purchase of MultiPlan NEW YORK – A group led

by Starr Investment Holdings said Monday it is buying MultiPlan Inc., which helps manage claims for large health insurers.

The purchase price was $4.4 billion, according to a person close to the deal, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the companies did not publicly disclose terms.

Starr and Switzerland-based Partners Group said their group had agreed to buy MultiPlan from private equity firms Silver Lake and BC Partners.

Starr is part of C.V. Starr & Co., which is led by former American International Group Inc. CEO Maurice “Hank” Greenberg.

MultiPlan says on its website it has nearly 900,000 health care providers under contract and processes 40 million claims a year for payers in health care and other markets.

Private equity firms such as Silver Lake typically make investments for a short period, perhaps three to five years.

Starr and Partners Group are taking a longer view and believe there will be growth in the business of analyzing and managing claims at a time of rising medical costs.

Carlyle and another firm sold MultiPlan to Silver Lake and BC Partners in 2010. Published reports at the time valued that deal at $3.1 billion.

MILLER PART OF ‘CRAZY EMOTIONAL’ MOMENT

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Tuesday, February 18, 2014 • Section B • Page 6

SOCHI, Russia – American skier Bode Miller is responding to criticism of an NBC post-race interview by saying it was a “crazy emotional” moment.

The interview, conducted after Miller won a bronze medal in the men’s super-G ski race, turned to his emotions given the passing of his younger brother, Chelone, who died last year. A visibly emotional Miller began crying during the interview, leaning against a railing.

The moment drew backlash toward interviewer Christin Cooper, who pressed Miller about his brother, and NBC, which aired the full tape-delayed interview in primetime in the United States several hours later.

“I appreciate everyone sticking up for me,” Miller tweeted on Monday. “Please be gentle w christin cooper, it was crazy emotional and not all her fault. #heatofthemoment”

Second thriller due from Rowling

Fallon makes ‘Tonight Show’ debut NEW YORK – Little more than a week after exiting “Late Night,” Jimmy Fallon made his much-anticipated debut Monday as host of NBC’s “Tonight Show,” as the venerable TV institution returns to New York after four decades based on the West Coast.

Scheduled guests were U2 and Will Smith, with the show reclaiming Rockefeller Center’s Studio 6B, where “Tonight” aired during its early Johnny Carson years.

Fallon, who had hosted “Late Night” since 2009, moves up to the job Jay Leno held for much of the past 22 years until his recent departure from the “Tonight” host chair.

The 39-year-old Fallon first found stardom as a cast member and “Weekend Update” co-anchor on “Saturday Night Live.” He left “SNL” in 2004 to pursue a movie career, but he was met with less success in that arena.

Despite the excitement surrounding his new “Tonight” stint (much of it expressed by Fallon himself), he has also emphasized that “Tonight” under his regime won’t be notably different from the show his “Late Night” had evolved into.

Although airing an hour earlier than “Late Night” (but this week seen at a special time, 11 p.m.), “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” will feature many of the same comic bits, the same house band, the Roots, and announcer-sidekick Steve Higgins.

Filling the vacancy left by Fallon at “Late Night” will be fellow “SNL” alum Seth Meyers, who signs on as host next Monday, with Fred Armisen, yet another former “SNL”-er, as band leader.

LONDON – J.K. Rowling is back with a novel involving a writer whose acid-tipped pen may have led to murder.

Publisher Little, Brown said Monday that it is publishing a second book by Robert Galbraith, the “Harry Potter” author’s thriller-writing pseudonym.

“The Silkworm” sees the return of detective Cormoran Strike, the ex-soldier hero introduced in “The Cuckoo’s Calling.” In the new book, Strike investigates the disappearance of a novelist who has written a book that features scathing descriptions of real people.

“The Cuckoo’s Calling” initially attracted little notice when it was published last year, but rocketed up the charts once Rowling was exposed as its author.

A lawyer has been fined for letting slip the writer’s identity.

“The Silkworm” will be published June 19 in Britain and June 24 in the U.S.

Montgomery into Jazz Hall of Fame NEW YORK – Singer Betty Carter, guitarist Wes Montgomery, drummer Elvin Jones and bandleader Fletcher Henderson have been voted into Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Ertegun Jazz Hall of Fame.

JALC announced the 2014 inductees Monday after tallying votes by jazz fans worldwide from a list of 10 nominees selected by a committee of musicians and scholars.

Montgomery influenced countless modern jazz guitarists,

including George Benson and Pat Metheny. Jones was the driving force propelling saxophonist John Coltrane’s classic quartet. JALC has inducted 45 members into the Hall of Fame since 2004.

Costas returns to Olympic coverage SOCHI, Russia – Bob Costas returns as host for NBC’s prime-time Olympic coverage Tuesday night, if still not exactly clear-eyed, at least with a sharpened sense of respect for the colleagues and crew who covered for him during a six-day absence.

“The doctors told me the infection has to run its course, which is two to three weeks, which covers the entire Olympics. It’s the all-time perfect bad timing, but what can you do?

It’s a curve ball and you’ve got to go with it,” Costas chuckled during an interview with The Associated Press, “even though I couldn’t spot the rotation on a curve ball right now.”

Wrapping up preparations a few hours before air-time, the broadcaster who began his Olympic work as a late-night host at the 1988 Seoul Games looked relaxed at the NBC compound in a navy polo shirt and cardigan sweater. Traces of his bout with viral conjunctivitis were still visible – the infection began in his left eye and spread quickly to the right – and both are still reddened.

“I’m better than I was,” he said, “but not as good as I’d like to be.”

Senior receives team’s Community Champion Award

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com LAKE FOREST – Matt Hughes apparently is a “Yes” man.

If there is a worthy cause with which the Cary-Grove senior can be involved, he’s usually in. One look at Hughes’ résumé makes one wonder how he can find time to excel in sports and academics, while giving so much to others.

“He has a kind heart and a willing-

ness to give,” said Pat Hughes, Matt’s father.

That giving attitude, along with Hughes’ athletic and academic excellence, earned him the Chicago Bears’ Community Champion Award, which he received Monday at Halas Hall from the National Football Foundation’s Chicago Metro Chapter.

Hughes was one of three high school recipients of the honor.

“My first thought [when I heard I’d won] was that I was overwhelmed,”

said Hughes, who played football and wrestled for the Trojans. “It’s nice to see my hard work pay off with a bunch of clubs and activities I’ve been involved with.”

Hughes was a Northwest Herald All-Area second-team selection as a linebacker in football. He also started in 2012 for C-G’s Class 6A state runner-up team. In the classroom, Hughes has a 3.92 GPA. He will receive a $3,000 scholarship from the Bears, which he will use at Northern

Michigan University this fall. Hughes plans on studying secondary education in biology with hopes of teaching and coaching in high school.

The Community Champion Award is modeled after the NFL Man of the Year Award, which is named for late Bears Hall of Famer Walter Payton. It takes the nominees’ athletic and academic excellence into account, along with their contributions

ALGONQUIN – The Jacobs girls basketball team overcame a slow start Monday and took care of business on its home court, beating Larkin, 54-47, in a Class 4A Jacobs Regional game.

Jennifer Barnec led the fifthseeded Golden Eagles with 12 points, and teammates Jessica Powell and Carly Sidor added eight and seven points, respectively.

The Golden Eagles (8-20) trailed, 10-6, after the first quarter, and needed to pick up their intensity, realizing this could have been their last game of the season.

“I think once we fell down, we began to realize this could be it,” Barnec said. “We needed to start playing our game and be more aggressive. Once we settled down and played our game, I think things went much better.”

The Golden Eagles capitalized on their free-throw opportunities, going 26 of 33 at the line, including 15 of 19 in the fourth quarter.

“We have been a pretty good free-throw shooting team,” Jacobs coach Joe Benoit said. “If you look at most of our wins, free throws have been a big part of just about all of them.”

The fourth-seeded Royals were led by freshman Marlee Kyles, who had a game-high 23 points, including three 3-pointers. Kyles left the game with an apparent ankle injury in the fourth quarter and was unable to return.

Jacobs trailed 37-36 heading into the fourth quarter before Powell knocked down a 3 to give the Golden Eagles the lead. The next play, Kyles was injured and left the game.

The fourth-seeded Tigers (1513) face top-seeded Prairie Ridge in Wednesday’s 6 p.m. semifinal.

“It took a couple of possessions in the third quarter to get back our rhythm, but that’s what we talked about at halftime,” Tigers coach Paul Lichtenheld said. “We know our offense comes and goes at times, and we just can’t let our defense go with it.”

McHenry (10-16) briefly took a 23-22 lead with 4:53 left in the third quarter, but that lasted only 36 seconds. Evelyn Youel (10 points) scored on a putback to give Central the lead. The Warriors got a boost off the bench from Ashley Kaempf (nine points) and Lindsay Skinner.

“I thought, when we played with emotions, we were pretty good,” McHenry coach Scott Morris said. “Those two lit a fire under us, and they got after it after that.”

Despite the setback, the Warriors still had their opportunities in the final two minutes to go ahead. Alex Martens made a pair of free throws with 1:40 remaining to cut Central’s lead to 38-35. The Tigers’ struggles at the free-throw line late in the fourth (1 for 6) kept the Warriors’ hopes alive. A key offensive rebound off a missed free throw with 11 seconds left set up Helm’s game-clinching free throw.

“We just had to crash the boards,” Schmitt said. “No matter who was under the boards, we had to get them.”

A handful of Northwestern football players announced they are forming the first labor union for college athletes – one they hope eventually will represent players nationwide.

8VIEWS / BY HERB GOULD

College athletes’ union not if, but when A union for college football players may sound outrageous right now.

But there was a time when people scratched their heads at the thought of baseball players – and NFL and NBA players – needing a union.

They were being paid of lot of money to play a sport, right? Why did they need a union?

Because in America, when people want to have a voice, they get together, and they get to have a voice – whether they set up McCormick Place exhibits, build cars, teach school or throw a ball around. You can debate whether professional sports unions wield too much power, but not their right to exist.

And now, puzzled and troubled by the thought of a college athletes’ union, opponents and skeptics are trying to make a distinction that college athletes are not employees.

They sign a contract. Their lives are controlled 24/7 by coaches, academic demands, practice time, strict behavior codes, medical standards.

Even if the control is exercised benevolently to help them mature into

8SPORTS SHORTS Bears sign DE Lane The Bears signed defensive end Austen Lane, his agent Scott Smith announced via Twitter on Monday.

Lane reunites with Bears defensive coordinator Mel Tucker, who was his coordinator in Jacksonville when Lane played there from 2010-12.

With the Jaguars, Lane appeared in 28 games with 17 starts, recording 66 tackles and three sacks.

The Jaguars cut Lane in June.

Lane appeared in two games for the Lions in the 2013 season before being cut Nov. 27.

Lane was born in Evanston, but played his high school football in Iola, Wis. The 26-year old, 6-foot-6, 265-pounder joins a Bears defensive line that is about to see Corey Wootton, Henry Melton, Jeremiah Ratliff and Nate Collins hit free agency.

LB Suggs signs 4-year extension with Ravens OWINGS MILLS, Md. – As a 20-year-old fresh out of college, Terrell Suggs never intended to spend his entire NFL career with one team.

Now the Pro Bowl linebacker embraces the idea of going the distance as a Baltimore Raven.

Suggs signed a four-year extension Monday that saves the Ravens salary cap room and puts Suggs in position to finish his career in Baltimore.

“That’s the plan,” Suggs said.

“Sizzle will be a Raven for life.”

Suggs, 31, signed a six-year deal in 2009 that expired after the 2014 season. Now he’s signed through 2018. He was expected to count $12.4 million against the salary cap. With his new deal, that figure becomes a far more manageable $7.8 million.

– Staff, wire reports

successful adults, it’s pretty hard to make a case that “student-athletes” don’t deserve a voice.

They’re not employees? They need a union merely to gain the kind of rights employees enjoy. Employees, for example, can change jobs without sitting out a year.

While covering college athletics for decades, I’ve often wondered when and how a college players’ union would enter the scene.

Give a ton of credit to Northwestern quarterback Kain Colter for figuring out a way to take the first steps. Whether this effort is successful, or whether another one will be required down the road, or one after that, college athletes in revenue-producing sports now seem destined to have a collective voice.

It’s ironic that this first move toward a union is taking place at Northwestern and in the Big Ten, a school and conference that do an outstanding job of attending to their athletes’ needs. If I were the parent of a football player, I’d have absolutely no hesitation in trusting him

to NU athletic director Jim Philips and football coach Pat Fitzgerald.

It’s understandable that NU and the entire major-college establishment would resist a union movement. Whether they regard it that way or not, colleges have a pretty sweet deal at the moment.

Between football and men’s basketball, they have a pair of cash cows that fund entire athletic departments.

They can, and will, argue that this is the necessary way to do things, that university athletics enhances the college experience for everyone involved. And a football or basketball scholarship not only is worth tens of thousands of dollars, they will say; it opens countless doors to a successful life, whether an athlete goes on to the NFL/NBA or not.

Which is all true and nice. But it also reminds me of a classic exchange between a player and a coach in the football movie “North Dallas Forty”: “Every time I call it a game, you call it a business. And every time I call it a business, you call it a

game.’’

Which is it? College football is a game that fans love to watch and talented young athletes love to play.

But football and men’s basketball also are businesses that pay the bulk of athletic budgets that reportedly exceed $140 million at the biggest Big Ten schools.

No doubt, there are a vast number of athletic programs feeding from those massive troughs. And many schools that don’t enjoy the Big Ten’s financial advantages face a constant funding scramble.

Even though that’s not its main focus, a college athletes’ union would eventually put more pressure on the revenue side. And that will be difficult for athletic departments across the nation.

They need to prepare for it, though. Sooner than later, college sports seems on the verge of major upheaval. For good reason.

C-G senior went on mission to Nicaragua • HUGHES Continued from page C1 through community service.

Crystal Lake Central’s Johnny Laurence and Crystal Lake South’s Drew Ormseth received the honor in 2010.

Trojans football coach Brad Seaburg introduced Hughes on Monday and recalled when he asked Hughes for a list of his community service projects.

“It was so thick that I understood why it took him so long to get back to me,” Seaburg said. “Over the years, we’ve been fortunate to have some great kids from great families who’ve had great GPAs and have had great onfield accomplishments. What separated Matt was his offthe-field accomplishments.

He gave more to others than he did to himself. When someone needed help, Matt was always one of the first guys in line.”

Hughes went on a mission last summer to Nicaragua to build a water well. He did that with a group from The Chapel, his uncle Dan Hughes’ church in Barrington. He also serves on C-G’s student council, is president of C-G’s National Honor Society, vice president of Interact (a volunteer group) and a member of C-G’s Link Crew and Fellowship of Christian Athletes, among other activities.

Hughes thanked his coaches, his parents and said a special “thank you” to his sister Beth, a sophomore at Saint Louis University.

“To my sister, thanks for being a great example and being involved in as many clubs as possible,” Hughes said. “I was jealous of her doing missionary work on her spring break, helping refugees in St. Louis, so I had to one-up her and build a water well in Nic-

aragua, which was a great experience.”

Hughes was thrilled for his family, lifelong Bears fans, to make their first trip to Halas Hall, home of the Bears offices and practice facility. Gregory DeVine, Hughes’ great-grandfather, first bought season tickets in 1934 and passed them down to son Jon DeVine in the 1960s.

Jon and Karen DeVine were there Monday, along with Matt’s parents Pat and Chris, and younger brother Kevin. Matt enjoyed looking at the 1963 NFL Championship trophy and hearing stories from his grandparents about past Bears’ players and teams.

Matt looked at the interactive panels on the sparkling new addition to Halas Hall and remembered some of the games he had seen with his grandparents.

“Upon receiving the news I was receiving this prestigious award, I called my grandparents to tell them, ‘The Bears are finally paying us back,’ ” Hughes said.

Jon DeVine has been to hundreds of Bears games but never had been to Halas Hall.

“I’m amazed by the whole thing,” DeVine said. “You don’t think about these coaches and the time and effort they put in with these kids. It’s just a wonderful thing.”

Pat Hughes was pleased that the Bears had an honor where athletics, academics and community service all were considered.

“I was just proud [Matt] had the opportunity to be nominated by Coach Seaburg,” Pat said. “It makes you proud as a parent for grades and what he’s done on the football field and his service off the field.

It’s unique that all three came together. This is a big treat for the whole family.”

Noteworthy Not so fast: Huntley could have sealed its fourth consecutive Fox Valley Conference Valley Division title with a couple of wins last week, but losses at Cary-Grove and Prairie Ridge put C-G and Jacobs back in contention.

Huntley (7-2 FVC Valley) leads C-G (7-3) by one-half game and Jacobs (6-3) by one.

The Red Raiders had forged their lead in the Valley with their usual tough man-to-man defense and being the most consistent team in the division. Amanze Egekeze, Huntley’s 6-foot-8 senior, has a chance to be the first boys player in FVC history to play on four conference or division champions.

Jacobs plays Tuesday at C-G, so the loser will have a tough time catching Huntley, which has three remaining games. The Raiders still have a trip Friday to Jacobs, where they could wrap up the title. Or, they could find themselves in some sort of a tie.

Looking ahead: Marian Central played one of its best games of the season to dump St. Edward, 60-44, on Friday night, displaying the kind of energy the Hurricanes hope to sustain into the postseason.

The Class 3A Woodstock Regional – with Marian, Marengo, Hampshire, Harvard, Woodstock and Woodstock North – has only one team with a winning record: Marengo at 15-10.

The Hurricanes, like the others there, believe it is a winnable regional.

Marian has shown some flashes of playing good basketball, particularly when it starts like it did against the Green Wave.

“If we compete like that [Friday] who knows what will happen?”

Hurricanes coach Curtis Price said.

“We have to make sure we bring this intensity every time we come out.

Bring this level of aggressiveness.”

Cary-Grove’s Alli Jakubicek plays defense under the basket in the first half of a Class 4A regional game against Grant on Monday in Cary. C-G won, 60-28.

Barker leads Trojans with 17 points in win • C-G REGIONAL Continued from page C1 The No. 3-seeded Trojans kicked off the postseasson with a dominating effort, led by junior Katie Barker’s game-high 17 points and a defensive effort against No. 6 seed Grant that resulted in only four second-half field goals for the Bulldogs.

With their win, the Trojans advance to play No. 2 seed Crystal Lake South at 8 p.m.

Wednesday.

“Today was the first day in a while that we came out and started strong,” Barker

said. “We’ve been working a lot on our defense and urgency to get steals off our defense and I think we did that really well today.”

Barker scored the first 10 points for C-G (17-11) and by halftime the Trojans built a 27-13 lead. Grant (12-16) focused on double teaming Barker in the second half, which created plenty of open looks for her teammates, resulting in a 21-point lead through the third quarter.

Sarah Kendeigh finished with 14 points, including 12 in the second half, and 10 different players scored for C-G.

This week’s top games Jacobs at Cary-Grove 7 p.m. Tuesday at Elroy Fitzgerald Gymnasium Jacobs (6-3 FVC Valley) is one game behind division-leading Huntley with three remaining, while C-G (7-3) in one-half back with two games, so this game is crucial to both.

Huntley at Jacobs 7 p.m. Friday at the Eagles’ Nest Huntley needs two wins this week to clinch a share of its fourth straight FVC Valley championship. If Jacobs wins Tuesday (and Huntley beats McHenry), the Golden Eagles will be playing for a tie in the division. If Jacobs loses, Huntley still needs a win to stay ahead of C-G. Marengo at Richmond-Burton 7 p.m. Friday at Lou Ramirez Gymnasium Marengo has played well in the past few weeks, and R-B is leading the Big Northern Conference East Division by a game.

D-C bolts to 24-2 lead, romps past Elgin • JACOBS REGIONAL Continued from page C1 There was a noticeable difference in the game once she left, and Jacobs never trailed again, outscoring the Royals 18-10 in the fourth.

Jacobs will take on top-seeded South Elgin in a regional semifinal at 6 p.m.

Tuesday.

Dundee-Crown 58, Elgin 30: The third-seeded Chargers came out to a fast start and never looked back, defeating sixth-seeded Elgin.

D-C led, 24-2, at the end of the first quarter, hitting five 3-pointers.

“We had certain plays to screen the outsides of their zone,” said sophomore Melissa Barker, who led the Chargers with 11 points. “My teammates were able to get me open, and the shots were falling tonight.”

The Chargers (10-21) were able to force 23 turnovers, many of which provided them with easy transition buckets.

The Chargers won their third straight game, and know

this is the perfect time to get going.

“This gives us a lot of momentum going forward,” Barker said. “It’s the perfect time for us to get hot. We know we still have more games to play, but tonight was definitely a good first step.”

D-C got scoring contributions from 10 players. Francesca Scarpelli had nine points, and Allison Michalski added eight.

The Chargers will face Streamwood at 8 p.m. Tuesday in a regional semifinal.

OLYMPIC GLANCE

U.S., Canada owe no apologies

By MIKE WISE The Washington Post SOCHI, Russia – Every once in a while a reporter for a competing news organization asks a question so knowing, so intuitive and altogether brilliant at a postgame news conference, nothing but a doffing of the cap will do.

Alas, that did not happen Monday at Shayba Arena.

Instead, a Sam Donaldson wanna-be from a French news agency wanted to blow the lid off women’s hockey, expose the sport for deigning to have just two dominant teams after the Olympic tournament semifinals. Because Team USA and Canada had the audacity to convincingly beat their foes on their way to another gold medal matchup, he asked U.S. Coach Katey Stone whether the two powers are “doing enough” for the future of the game.

Imagine, for a moment, Nick Saban’s response after being asked whether he was “doing enough” for college football after Alabama beat Arkansas by eight touchdowns? Or Geno Auriemma’s contorted face if he had to answer whether the Connecticut women were “doing enough” after beating Providence 105-49 last season?

Or, in the spirit of the Games, let’s just ask the German luge coach if he is “doing enough” for his sport, considering six of the seven greatest multimedalists of all time are from Deutschland.

“Of course, it can be a problem for the world’s hockey to be so powerful,” Leif Boork, Sweden’s assistant coach, said after his team’s 6-1 loss. “But, on the other hand, it’s some-

Goalkeeper Shannon Szabados of Canada looks for the rebound on a blocked shot Monday against Switzerland during the first period of a women’s semifinal at Shayba Arena in Sochi, Russia. Canada won, 3-1. thing to look up to. It’s not U.S. and Canada’s fault for being good.”

He later confessed he had been on the job just four months, adding, “So I don’t know about women’s hockey.”

I feel bad for Team USA and Canada, bitter rivals who although trading fisticuffs in the run-up to the Games have been forced into a mutual kinship: They’re supposed to apologize for the rest of the world for not catching up.

I feel worse for Julie Chu, who is playing in her fourth Olympics and has mentored and coached thousands of young hockey-obsessed girls in that time. So ultracommitted she once deferred her admission to Harvard to compete in Salt Lake in 2002, Chu has won everything but the gold medal denied her three, soul-wrenching times by Canada. She should feel bad about trying to win big this time around?

It would be one thing if

Katey Stone and her players voted to make women’s hockey a part of the Winter Games; they did not. The International Olympic Committee did.

And because network advertisers and the IOC don’t have the patience they did when the U.S. and Canada used to drub teams 20-0 in men’s hockey – before that sport became genuinely competitive among many nations after the 1950s – there are rumblings of getting rid of it.

I asked Chu if it would eat at her soul if women’s hockey went the way of softball, ceasing to be an Olympic sport by 2018.

“Absolutely,” she said after the U.S. beat Sweden, 6-1, advancing to the gold-medal game for the fourth time since 1998. “The reality is if women’s hockey ever got pulled out of the Olympics, the trickle effect is going to be huge. Not just on the Olympic level, not just on the international level, but

we’re going to feel it at our NCAA level in the States, and we’re going to feel it in the growth of our girls.”

“The growth was huge after ’98, because hockey was a visible sport that young girls saw and said, ‘All right, maybe I can actually play that versus going to the more traditional sports.’ I grew up playing soccer.”

She went on, saying she actively campaigns for the rest of the world to catch up to Canada and Team USA. “We’ve got to have a bigger-picture mentality about the growth of our game,” Chu said.

“A lot of people say: ‘Julie, you realize that you’re trying to build up other countries so they beat you? And – at the end of the day – yes. I’d rather have (1) women’s hockey in the Olympics and (2) eight great teams in a field that anyone can upset anyone else.”

Incidentally, Stone did answer the reporter’s question.

Her sound reasoning was that because other nations didn’t grant scholarships or field college teams that more nations needed to send their best women’s players to America for education and excellence in women’s hockey. She added, facetiously, that they also could renege on those scholarship offers now and see how that worked out.

For a coach whose most important job is to help her team hurdle the mental and physical barriers needed to finally beat Canada at the Games, Stone showed incredible restraint – the kind of restraint we all need to show while women’s hockey gradually grows a game worth keeping as an Olympic sport.

Slate In the 1994 Winter Olympics, the Jamaican bobsled team had its best showing ever. After the first of four runs, the Jamaicans were just 0.83 seconds out of the lead. But despite that strong start, they had virtually no chance to win a medal.

That’s not because they were from a small, tropical country, nor because they had faltered in previous Olympics.

Rather, the Jamaicans had no chance because nobody who’s trailing in an Olympic bobsled competition ever has a chance.

In 1994, the first-place Germans followed up with three more almost identical runs and went on to win the gold. It happens every time. There is no international competition that’s more predictable, or more dreadfully boring.

8OLYMPIC BRIEF Miller interview backlash SOCHI, Russia – American skier Bode Miller responded to criticism of an NBC interview by saying it was a “crazy emotional moment.”

The interview, conducted after Miller won a bronze medal in the men’s super-G, turned to his emotions given the passing of his younger brother, Chelone, who died last year. A visibly emotional Miller began crying during the interview, leaning against a railing.

The moment drew backlash toward interviewer Christin Cooper, who pressed Miller about his brother, and NBC. “I appreciate everyone sticking up for me,” Miller tweeted Monday. “Please be gentle w christin cooper, it was crazy emotional and not all her fault. #heatofthemoment” Richard Sandomir of The New York Times called it “overkill,” Kami Mattioli of the Sporting News said Cooper “repeatedly badgered” Miller, and the AP’s David Bauder called it “a shameful spectacle.”

The rules of Olympic bobsled are simple. In the two-person and four-person events, each team slides down the track four times. (The men compete in both bobsled formats, while women are restricted to the two-at-a-time variety.) The track does not change from round to round.

The team with the lowest cumulative time wins.

The International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation keeps detailed statistics back to 2005 for all Olympic and world championship events. In this time period, for all four-man, two-man, and two-woman bobsled competitions, the team ahead after the third run has won 100 percent of the time.

The fourth run of an international bobsled competition, then, is the most meaningless event in all of sports – or at least tied with every preseason NFL game.

Is it inherently bad to have a sport that’s so predictable?

It is at least in the case of bobsled, considering that it features four anonymous helmets poking out of identical sleds, with no particular strategy discernible to the naked eye.

Given those parameters, you’d think suspense would be the only reason to watch. Since there’s absolutely no suspense to be had, you’d be better off switching to Animal Planet.

Can this terrible sport be fixed? While the Olympics and the world championships feature four runs a team, all other competitions governed by the IBSF mandate only two runs. Bringing that format to the Olympics would increase variability and make the final result more dramatic. Considering that most bobsled competitions are already two runs, it wouldn’t bastardize the sport to make this move.

PROTEST & POLITICS An Italian gay-rights activist said she was detained for several hours by police. The police said no such thing happened. Vladimir Luxuria, a former Italian parliament lawmaker who has become a prominent transgender rights crusader and TV personality, told The Associated Press she was stopped while carrying a rainbow flag that read in Russian: “Gay is OK.” She added that the issue was not the flag but the message. “They asked me not to show things like that anymore.”

LET’S SHAKE IT Meryl Davis and Charlie White won the first Olympic title in the ice dancing for the United States. The silver medalists from four years ago scored 116.63 points in the free dance to beat their Canadian training partners, Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir. Davis and White started skating together in 1997, and on the biggest day of their career, they were nearly flawless. “That in itself justified 17 years of hard work,” White said.

AND IT’S GOT ME MOVING Rivals compare her to a dancer because she skis with rhythm. She also wins plenty of gold. Darya Domracheva became the first female to win three gold medals in biathlon at the same Olympics when she won the 12.5-kilometer mass start race, missing only one target.

Gabriela Soukalova of Czech Republic was second and Tiril Eckhoff of Norway finished third.

THE (NOR)WAY HOME Norwegian skier Aksel Lund Svindal told the AP he’s skipping his last race at the Olympics because of allergies he thinks are “from the concrete that’s in the air.” Svindal failed to win a medal in three races and was to have raced in Wednesday’s giant slalom. ... Cross country skier Astrid Uhrenholdt Jacobsen, whose brother died on the eve of the Olympics, has left Sochi and gone home. Norway was reprimanded by the IOC after its skiers wore black armbands in honor of Sten Anders Jacobsen.

MEDALS The United States and Russia each won two medals to improve their overall totals to 18, one more than the Netherlands. All three countries have five golds, three behind Germany with eight gold medals and 13 overall.

COMING TUESDAY Seven medal events are on tap, including the women’s giant slalom and the men’s 10,000 meters in speedskating.

SOCHI SCENE When dogs fly KRASNAYA POLYANA, Russia – Gus Kenworthy’s party back in Colorado to celebrate his silver medal in men’s slopestyle skiing is going to have to wait.

He’s still waiting for Russia to let the dogs out. No, seriously.

The 22-year-old who lives in Telluride, Colo., was scheduled to return home from Sochi on Monday, nearly a week after Kenworthy was part of a historic sweep by the U.S. as slopestyle skiing made its Olympic debut.

Yet Kenworthy’s medal in some ways took a backseat to his decision to adopt four puppies – along with their mother – he discovered near the media center at the base of the mountain that houses the Rosa Khutor Extreme Park.

Kenworthy wasn’t kidding. He is taking all five dogs back to the U.S. with him, but getting the paperwork done is taking some time.

A U.S. skiing official said Kenworthy had to push back his plans so the dogs can join him for the long trip halfway across the world back home.

Stanley in Sochi SOCHI, Russia – Lord Stanley is receiving a warm welcome in Sochi.

The Stanley Cup made an appearance at the Olympics on Monday, making several stops around Olympic Park, including the USA House and Canada House.

“It’s yours – for an hour,” Canadian Olympic Committee President Marcel Aubut told the packed house.

Dozens of people lined up to pose for pictures with it. Some put their arms around Cup, which is awarded to the NHL’s champion each year and is one of the most revered trophies in all of professional sports, as if it was a friend.

Some stood off to the side, perhaps in awe, as their picture was taken next to it.

Jade Agosta, whose sister, Meghan, is a star for the Canadian Olympic hockey team, was one of the many people who kissed the Cup. “That was pretty cool,” she said.

“It’s probably the most nervous we’ll be in a lifetime.”

The Washington Post SOCHI, Russia – As Meryl Davis and Charlie White glided around on the bright haze of ice, what with all their elaborate footwork and gasp-inducing lifts, at times you forgot they were on skates. But that was the point – the viewer was no more troubled by the skating of Davis and White than by a breeze, such was the spell they cast to win America’s first Olympic gold medal in ice dancing.

These two childhood friends from Detroit practiced for 17 years to achieve the illusion they conjured up at the Iceberg Arena on Monday night. Their fleet, whirling performance of Scheherazade was just a masquerade for two athletes straining to do something unimaginably hard: win in a sport historically dominated by Russians and Canadians, on Russian home ice. They made it seem effortless, but it was the furthest thing from it, especially “knowing that if you’re not perfect you can forget about your dreams,” White said.

They skated last and with a sense of pressure in the arena so heavy it almost had physical weight. They knew that their main rivals, defending Olympic champions Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir of Canada, had turned in an almost faultless waltz. And that Russians Elena Ilinykh and Nikita Katsalapov had provoked bedlam and an outpouring of flowers from the home crowd with their powerfully dark rendition of Swan Lake.

“We had some awareness that everyone had skated well before us,” White said. “It’s probably the most nervous we’ll be in a lifetime.”

It’s easy to denigrate the absurd outerwear of ice dancing. Over the course of the evening there were mock Roman centurions, principessa, clowns, and a guy in a sweater vest. This was a snip-

Charlie White U.S. ice dancer pet of conversation in the press tribune.

“What’s she wearing tonight?”

“The green, I think.”

Actually, Davis wore purple. She was in chiffon, of course, and he was in a velvet and brocade getup that made him look a little like Sir Spamalot. But all the fabric was only meant to hide the athletic scaffolding. Most Olympic stars are in the business of showing off their muscle, not cloaking it. As the Olympics get ever larger and catch more air, ice dancing is the last event left that is about the little things; it’s needlepoint while other athletes are spray painting.

Yet underneath it all, this is an utterly torturous discipline, in which it’s easy to be exposed as awkward, or effortful, or clumsy. Or boring – there were moments during some of the night’s performances when you found yourself wondering what might happen if her skate caught on his necktie?

Sometimes you had to go thumbing through the program looking for the planned elements, to see if what you’d just seen was an accident or not.

Davis and White didn’t have to land impossible quads that might send them sprawling. Instead, their task was to deliver a flowing performance that hid the fact that every single moment of it had been carefully constructed, and required wrenching, heaving, twisting work. Each segment of which was noted by notoriously fickle and sometimes corrupt judges. Miss one step and it would be scored like a fall on a triple axel. Four years ago at the Vancouver Games they had learned that the hard

way, losing to Virtue and Moir and taking silver.

“That constant striving for perfection, you’ve got to look yourself in the mirror and figure out every day what it’s gonna take to get there,” White said.

They’d worked at it ever since they met as children back in Detroit, when they took their first skating lessons, and “knew each other as casually as eight year olds can,” she said. “We’ve grown up together in every sense of the word.”

He was a gifted hockey player who was initially a little ahead of her as a skater, and annoyed while he waited for her to catch up. But when they danced they found “we were sticking together like glue,” he said. Yet the natural childhood affinity wouldn’t have amounted to anything without the long-term dedication.

All the years later, as their Sochi performance gained momentum, they skated so close together you worried his skate toes might clip their heels. On every turn and spin they found perfect sync.

White swung Davis around like she was on a string. At times she stood balanced in the air with her skate atop her partner’s knee. At times he wrapped her around his neck like a scarf. At times he held her aloft and sailed her through the air like she was on the prow of a ship.

At one point he dangled her from his wrist like a piece of jewelry. At another she hung precariously upside down in a headstand, with only a hand on the back of his neck to steady herself.

In the end, there was no question.

There would be no judging controversy, no argument. As they whirled around entwined, never separated by more than two arms’ lengths, they finally achieved what they’d been looking for. In a competition in which the difference between the medalists can be imperceptible, Davis and White were visibly, perceptibly great. They had made it look easy.

FIVE-DAY PLANNER

NASCAR SPRINT CUP: DAYTONA 500

No. 3 makes emphatic return

TEAM

TUESDAY

WEDNESDAY

at Toronto 6 p.m.

CSN AM-1000

The Associated Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Richard Childress pumped his fist above his head, emphatically celebrating his grandson’s latest accomplishment.

It was a rare show of emotion from the usually stoic team owner.

Then again, this moment was far from normal. Austin Dillon took the iconic No. 3 – the number the late Dale Earnhardt drove to 67 wins and six of his seven championships – out of pseudo-retirement and put it back atop the scoring tower at Daytona International Speedway.

Dillon might as well have grabbed the largest Earnhardt tribute flag ever made and waved it all around NASCAR’s most famous track.

“The 3 is special to all of us,” Childress said. “The family, the Earnhardt family, to every one of us, but I think it’s special because Austin, our family, is in the car.”

Dillon will be the talk of the Daytona – and of all of racing – for the next six days after winning the pole for Sunday’s season-opening Daytona 500.

The famed number already was in the spotlight as Childress decided to put it back on track in the Sprint Cup Series for the first time since his driver and friend’s fatal accident in the 2001 Daytona 500. Dillon made its return an emphatic one.

“The legend of Dale has lived on for a long time and is going to continue to live on forever,” Dillon said before his pole-sitting run.

“Dale Earnhardt is not just famous because of the number. He is Dale Earnhardt. He was a hero in everybody’s mind, including myself. ...

That’s the coolest thing about everything that’s going on.”

Fans still lamenting the loss of Earnhardt may have mixed emotions about seeing another driver in the No. 3.

But those closest to the “Intimidator” welcomed its return.

“I think it’s great for Austin and Richard, grandson and grandfather being able to come together and doing something like that with a number that’s been in their family for so many years,” Dale Earnhardt Jr. said. “It has a lot of history inside their family. ... I’m happy for them.

“Once we get out on the racetrack ... you won’t even think about the 3 on the side. That will sort of become normal. I’m glad that it’s back. It

It’s a good situation that I can be comfortable with, and I’m happy for that because it could have just as easily been a difficult situation that I wouldn’t have been comfortable with.”

Childress kept the stylized version of the No. 3, but tweaked the color scheme. He switched it from a white number with red trimming to a red number with black trimming.

That was enough to satisfy Dale Sr.’s mother, Martha, who had been uneasy about seeing it back on the track.

“I know it was Richard’s number when he drove and this is his grandson, and I understand that,” Martha Earnhardt said in an interview with Fox Sports 1. “As long as they don’t make it look like the No. 3. If they painted it a different color, I can sort of deal with it, but I don’t want to see the black No. 3 there just like Dale’s.”

Others just knew it was time.

And NASCAR certainly was onboard with it. Industry leaders have promoted the return of the No. 3 as one of the biggest story lines heading into the season.

“I think everybody had reservations at one point in time,” former Earnhardt crew member Danny “Chocolate” Myers said. “Then you think about it and grow into it and realize it’s just time.”

Myers drove from North Carolina to Daytona Beach on Sunday, listening to qualifying on the radio

and going through the tear-filled euphoria of Dillon’s 196 mph run to the nervous wait afterward, making sure it held up. It did, and Myers arrived just in time to hug Dillon in Victory Lane.

“I had my moment, I won’t lie to you,” Myers said. “It’s a big deal for me, and the 3’s part of it.

“But this is a kid I got to see grow up. I’m a Dale Jr. fan, not because he’s Dale Earnhardt Jr. and not because he’s Dale Earnhardt’s son. But because he’s a kid I got to see grow up. It’s the same with Austin, and that’s means a lot to it. To do this today, it’s a big, big deal.”

Engine builder Danny Lawrence explained why better than everyone else.

“It’s no secret that when we lost Dale, we rode on adrenaline for a little while there,” said Lawrence, who started with the company before the 1998 Daytona 500. “When you’ve got a guy that’s driving for you that’s your friend and to me the best race car driver out there, it’s just about impossible to recover from that.”

But Dillon’s given the team a shot in the arm, especially some relatively lean years.

The next step is getting the No. 3 back in Victory Lane. If that happens, look for Childress to really let loose in celebration.

“You know, the emotion will fly if the 3 rolls in there on Sunday,” he said. “I won’t hold it back, I promise.”

WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

Paulino eager to pitch, return to 2012 form

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com GLENDALE, Ariz. – At 6-foot3, 265 pounds, Felipe Paulino is hard to miss in the White Sox’s clubhouse. If you’ve been called “Jumbo,’’ as Paulino has, that’s going to happen.

His enthusiasm and excitement about the prospect of pitching for the White Sox stand out, too.

That’s to be expected for a pitcher who hasn’t pitched since June 2012. Paulino underwent Tommy John surgery that year and then a procedure to remove a cyst from the back of his shoulder in the fall, and he doesn’t hide his boyish delight about pitching in a big league game as soon as possible.

“I feel like the same guy [of] 2012 – I feel stronger,’’ Paulino said. “It’s big. I only want just to pitch right now. Last year I didn’t pitch a lot. But the good thing, my arm feels strong.’’

Paulino, who as of now is penciled into the starting rotation, is throwing with no restrictions during the first days of spring AP file photo training. That’s a good thing. It Former Kansas City Royals pitcher Felipe Paulino, now with the White Sox, said he is healthy after would have been tough holding Tommy John surgery in 2012 and surgery in the fall to remove a cyst from the back of his shoulder. him back.

“I feel like a normal guy,’’ he said.

General manager Rick Hahn viewed Paulino as another lowrisk acquisition with considerable upside. Some sabermetric numbers, such as Paulino’s fielding independent pitching ERA from 2010 to 2012, paint a slightly better picture of him than the conventional numbers.

Hahn signed Paulino to a oneyear, $1.75 million contract in December. The deal includes a $4 million club option for 2015.

“I’m healthy, and the good thing is I’m ready to do my thing here with the White Sox,’’ Paulino said.

Paulino, 30, who held Baseball America’s distinction of having the best fastball in the Astros’ organization from 2006 to 2008, is 13-32 with a 4.93 ERA over 93 career appearances (61 starts) in five seasons with the Astros, Rockies and Royals. He posted a 4.11 ERA while making 20 starts for the Royals in 2011 and was 3-1 with a 1.67 ERA over 371/3 innings before his elbow went bad in 2012. So his good stretches are cause for optimism for the Sox. Pitching coach Don Cooper, who watched Paulino throw bullpen sessions Saturday and Mon-

day, is in the get-to-know-you stage with the big right-hander.

“I’m just kind of acquainting myself with him and seeing what he’s doing,’’ Cooper said. “I’ve already looked at video of him and will look at more video. I want to see when he was right, when he was healthy more than anything.

He was healthy in 2011 for Kansas City. I want to see what he was doing.’’

Paulino wants to be that guy again. And that may be the only important question about him – will he be at full strength? While rehabbing from ulnar collateral surgery last year, Paulino had a cyst removed from the back of his right shoulder in September, but Paulino said he was ready to throw three weeks after that and could have pitched in winter ball.

It was tempting, considering he did not pitch in the majors last year.

“The good thing is I’m healthy and ready to compete,’’ Paulino said. “I just want to do everything I can here.

“I’m a real competitor. When I get the ball, I try to do everything to give us a chance to win the game. No matter what ... I just want to give us a chance to win the game.”

CUBS SPRING TRAINING

Samardzija ‘blindsided’ by Dempster’s decision to sit out season

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com MESA, Ariz. – Jeff Samardzija still hasn’t reached out to his friend Ryan Dempster since the ex-Cubs pitcher walked away Sunday from the final year of his contract with the Boston Red Sox, citing physical and family reasons.

“I’ll just give him his

space,” Samardzija said. “I’m sure we’ll talk soon.”

Until then, the news is still sinking in. Samardzija and teammates learned of Dempster’s sudden announcement as they took the field for workouts Sunday morning.

“It’s tough to see. He’s such a great guy to me. Such a mentor,” said Samardzija, who went from Notre Dame

football star in 2005 to raw rookie pitcher with the Cubs, under Dempster’s wing, in 2008, to OpenJeff ing Day starter Samardzija last year.

“I learned a lot from him. I came from being a football guy and not

knowing much to working out with him every off-season, learning how to work as a baseball player and prepare as a baseball player,” Samardzija said. “He was there a lot for me, molding me, from beginning to end, whether it was how to pitch or how to go about your business when you’re not pitching.”

Samardzija said that de-

spite regular contact with his friend, he had no idea Dempster was mulling a hiatus from pitching that will cost him $13.25 million this year and leave him a 37-year-old free agent in the winter if he decides to return to baseball.

“I was totally blindsided,” Samardzija said. “But Demp’s a smart guy. He doesn’t make any rash decisions so obvi-

ously it was calculated, and he understood that maybe it was his time. But from what it sounds like, it doesn’t seem like he’s totally done. He just maybe needs to take a break.

“I know how much of a competitor he is, so sitting around watching is probably not going to be the easiest pill to swallow. So I wouldn’t be surprised to see him back.”

Weather conditions Brandpoint

Cold feet Whether you’re slogging through deep snow or contending with dampness, it’s important to take care of your feet all winter long.

The American Podiatric Medical Association offers some advice for keeping feet healthy in common winter scenarios: Winter is skiing and snowboarding season: Never ski or snowboard in footwear other than ski boots specifically designed for that purpose. Make sure your boots fit properly; you should be able to wiggle your toes, but the boots should immobilize the heel, instep and ball of your foot. You can use orthotics (support devices that go inside shoes) to help control the foot’s movement inside boots or skates.

Boots are must-have footwear: In winter climates, especially when dealing with snow.

Between the waterproof material of the boots themselves and the warm socks you wear to keep toes toasty, you may find your feet sweat a lot. Damp, sweaty feet can chill more easily and are more prone to bacterial infections. To keep feet clean and dry, consider using foot powder inside socks and incorporating extra foot baths into your foot care regimen this winter.

Be size smart: It may be tempting to buy pricey specialty footwear (like winter boots or ski boots) for kids in a slightly larger size, thinking they’ll be able to get two seasons of wear out of them. But unlike coats that kids can grow into, footwear needs to fit properly right away.

Properly fitted skates and boots can help prevent blisters, chafing and ankle or foot injuries. Likewise, if socks are too small they can force toes to bunch together, and that friction can cause painful blisters or corns.

Heart health calls for caution in the cold

By DR. AMJAD ALMAHAMEED More Content Now Winter and cold weather can pose serious risks to your health. Shoveling snow can trigger a heart attack; staying in the cold too long without protection can cause hypothermia; and frigid temperatures can increase blood pressure and narrow blood vessels, bringing on conditions like Raynaud’s phenomenon and chilblains.

By taking precautions, however, you can guard against these dangers.

Cardiovascular death rates average 26 to 34 percent higher from January through March, according to a study looking at fatalities in a variety of cold and warm states. The causes of death were heart attack, stroke and general “cardiovascular disease.”

Researchers also found heart-attack risk factors – such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and extra weight in the midsection – increase during winter, and the chance of a heart attack rose by 7 percent for every drop of 18 degrees Fahrenheit.

Whether cold temperatures are the key factor in cardiovascular deaths or one factor among many, they pose serious risks. Here’s a closer look: Snow shoveling can increase the likelihood of a heart attack. This is especially true for people with existing cardiovascular disease and those with high blood pressure, high cholesterol or sedentary lifestyles.

For people with heart disease, cold weather makes the heart work harder to generate the same amount of heat the body needs to function.

The result can be angina pains. If the pains are caused by a spasm in an artery, it

can lead to a heart attack.

Cold hard facts If you have a heart condition or have been sedentary take these precautions: • Use a snow blower or have someone else shovel.

• When shoveling, make sure the load isn’t too heavy, work slowly and take frequent breaks.

• Don’t eat a heavy meal or drink alcohol before or immediately after shoveling.

• Be aware of heart attack warning signs, including discomfort in the chest, shortness of breath and nausea.

and lead to amputation. Medications called vasodilators can dilate the blood vessels and reduce pain, facilitate healing and prevent recurrences. If you are susceptible to chilblains, avoid exposure to cold, dress warmly when outdoors, don’t smoke and exercise to improve circulation.

If you think you experience any of these conditions, check with your doctor for a medical opinion. While we can’t control the weather, we can control our response to it.

Be cautious in frigid conditions, especially during exertions like shoveling. For information, visit www.cdc.gov for the Extreme Cold Prevention Guide.

Hypothermia

Raynaud’s phenomenon A vascular condition in which blood flow is sharply reduced in response to cold or emotional stress. Cold leads to the narrowing of blood vessels in the hands, toes, face, nose and ears. When the vessels are narrowed, the body wants to shunt blood away from the skin to the internal organs, so your skin loses additional heat. Raynaud’s afflicts an estimated 5 percent of the population.

Even reaching into the refrigerator to grab a cold drink can set it off.

Those who have Raynaud’s can lessen its effects by avoiding exposure to cold, stress and certain medications, wearing warm clothing when outdoors with special attention to hands and feet and immediately soaking hands in warm water when an attack occurs.

Chilblains A vascular condition sometimes confused with frostbite, chilblains is characterized by painful swelling in the small blood vessels of the toes, fingers, nose and ears. Chilblains may result in blue or purplish discoloration, accompanied by burning pain, itching, swelling and/or blisters.

The condition may affect people who shovel without gloves or get icy water in their boots. Symptoms can persist for weeks, and in some cases, chilblains can result in permanent sores that can become infected

A condition in which body temperature falls below 95 degrees Fahrenheit, hypothermia can affect people who spend a lot of time in extreme cold. This can cause heart failure, organ or brain damage or even death. The elderly and children are particularly vulnerable to this condition, because they can get it and not notice it. Hypothermia can even occur in a poorly heated apartment.

Signs of hypothermia: • Shivering • Mental confusion • Stumbling and blue lips • Extreme hypothermia can trigger amnesia and a faltering heart rate.

To avoid hypothermia: • Stay indoors in frigid weather • Keep warm by layering clothing that traps warm air, thus providing insulation • Wear a hat to prevent heat from escaping • Don’t drink alcohol outdoors or before going outdoors.

Health benefits options According to the Coalition for Medicare Choices, Medicare Advantage is a health benefits program available to people 65 or older or those with permanent disabilities.

The coverage is provided through private health plans rather than the government and is required to meet or exceed the standards set by the original Medicare program.

In addition to hospital and physician coverage, Medicare Advantage plans often include benefits such as prescription drug, vision, hearing, dental, fitness, mental health and chronic illness.

Genome sequencing: Is it ethical or not?

Recently, there was a provocative article in the New England Journal of Medicine titled, “Prenatal Whole Genome Sequencing – Is the Quest to Know a Fetus’s Future Ethical?”

With the advent of whole genome sequencing, it is now possible, when the baby is still a fetus, to determine a great deal of genetic information about him or her.

This includes the risk of childhood diseases, the presence of genes that can cause various types of cancers, diabetes, serious genetic syndromes and even other non-illness traits such as baldness.

There is ongoing debate

VIEWS Dr. Murray Feingold concerning how much information the parents should be given about the genetic makeup of their fetus. Currently, there is agreement that parents should be given information concerning genetic conditions that will be of direct benefit to the child.

For example, a condition in which some type of treatment is available.

However, many believe parents should not be informed if the fetus has a gene that causes a disease in adult

life, such as Huntington’s disease, that does not, thus far, have any treatment.

And there is another problem. Many times the results of gene testing show gene abnormalities or mutations in which the significance or consequences of these mutations are unknown.

These mutations could cause some type of serious disease or they may have no impact on the child. Should parents also be given this information?

The authors of the article believe parents should have the right to all of the genetic information available about their fetus. This information should be given to the

parents by a geneticist or genetic counselor.

The parents are the ones who are responsible for caring for and raising their children and are entitled to have this information.

Others disagree, believing that knowing their child will have some type of serious, untreatable adult-onset disease will place a huge psychological burden on parent and child. And, giving parents information about the presence of abnormal genes whose significance is not known may result in excessive worry and cause more harm than good.

Also of concern is there are not enough geneticists and

genetic counselors available to explain and discuss the significance of the genetic findings to the parents.

There is a sense of urgency regarding the best way to address these moral and ethical issues, because they are not five years away, they are with us today.

Veteran seeks career as personal trainer

By DR. AMJAD ALMAHAMEED

By LENNY BERNSTEIN The Washington Post After a 23-year career in the U.S. Army, Valetta SuRae Stewart was concerned the primary skills she could bring to the private sector were “breaking things and killing people.”

Neither promised the kind of career Stewart, 51, wanted for the rest of her life. And upon reflection, she realized her fears weren’t really true.

As a young drill sergeant at Fort Dix, N.J., she had stripped 60 pounds off recruits who joined the Army woefully out of shape. Later, she helped train other soldiers who needed help maintaining their fitness to meet the Army’s standards. Along the way, she learned the art of helping people attain goals they believed were impossibly out of reach.

Now, at an age when many people are beginning to glimpse retirement on the horizon, the Maryland resident is studying to become a personal trainer, one of hundreds of thousands of military personnel making the sometimesdifficult transition to civilian employment. In her case, however, there is a market hungry for new workers and a critical need for anyone who wants to help address the U.S. obesity problem.

“When I was a drill sergeant, I had to be more fit than my soldiers,” she said. “I had to prove myself almost every cycle. Every class that I trained, I had to run faster, work harder and get better performance out of my soldiers.”

Stewart enrolled in programs sponsored by two major organizations that prepare people to become physical trainers, in gyms or on their own. Through the American Council on Exercise’s 6-month-old Salute You program for veterans, she received a $700 scholarship and was certified as a trainer in November. Using G.I. Bill benefits, she studied at the National Personal Training Institute and is serving as an unpaid apprentice at Atlas Fitness in southeast Washington, part of becoming certified by the National Academy of Sports Medicine.

The Salute You program, which in six months has handed out 226 scholarships and certified nine trainers, guarantees course graduates interviews at major fitness chains such as Anytime Fitness and 24-Hour Fitness, said Scott Goudeseune, the ACE’s president and chief executive. Gym trainers can earn about $50,000 a year,

Valetta SuRae Stewart spent years whipping military recruits into shape; now she is studying to become a personal trainer.

Goudeseune said, and more entrepreneurial trainers who strike out on their own can bring in six-figure salaries.

With so many programs, government and private, trying to help about 800,000 veterans move into new jobs and careers, no one really knows how effective they are, said James Schmeling, who studies the issue for the Institute for Veterans and Military Families at Syracuse University.

The best of them, he said, are careful to match training programs with employers’ needs in particular geographic areas, because vets tend to settle down near their last duty stations or go back home, he said.

But those are not necessarily where the jobs are, and employers in those locations might not need their skills, he said.

What’s clear from unemployment data is younger, post-Sept. 11 veterans of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are having more trouble finding work than their older counterparts,

Schmeling said. That makes sense, because older vets have been in the labor market longer, while younger ones have been leaving the military only in recent years and are looking for work or new skills. But even among post-Sept. 11 vets of all ages, the youngest, ages 20 to 29, have the highest unemployment rates, according to a monthly report from Schmeling’s institute.

According to the institute, 20- to 24-year-old vets faced a 14.5 percent unemployment rate in December and 10.4 percent of 25- to 29-year-old vets were unemployed. The overall rate for veterans was 5.5 percent, below the level for all U.S. workers (6.7 percent).

Stewart, a divorced mother of two grown sons, is confident she will be able to provide a service few other trainers can offer. She plans to become a one-stop wellness adviser for her clients. She has studied massage therapy and raw cooking, she said, and estimates 90 percent of her own

diet is made up of raw food, much of it juiced. She supports herself by offering classes and demonstrations on raw food diet and preparation. Her 10- and 13-year stints in the military were separated by years when she worked cutting hair and held other jobs that gave her an earful about people’s physical condition.

“You learn very, very intimate things about people,” she said. “And everybody was broken. This one had heart disease; this one’s mother had just died from cancer, this one had high blood pressure. That’s what sent me to nutrition.”

Now, Stewart said, she hopes to address the constellation of bad habits that contribute to poor health.

“I want to able to feed them. I want to make meal plans for them. I want to be able to train them. And I want to be able to teach them how to feed themselves,” she said.

Stewart has one private client, a young woman from Washington who is studying at the Berklee School

of Music in Boston and performing “livetronica” drumming and singing in local clubs. Glorious Allen hired Stewart while she was home on break this month because she needed more stamina to perform her physically demanding sets, and because she wanted to tone her body.

Stewart worked with Allen six days a week for an hour at a time. In three weeks, Allen lost 15 pounds and switched to a mostly raw diet, she said. When she started, she couldn’t do push-ups, even on her knees. Now she does half a dozen in the traditional position on her hands and toes.

Her skin has cleared up dramatically, she said.

If it all works out, Stewart wants to make that kind of effort her life’s work. Her past and her future, she said, are “very similar. You have to motivate them. You have to give them little successes.

“Tact,” she added, “is being able to tell someone to go to hell and have them looking forward to the trip.”

Dad who defers to son sends Genes aren’t necessarily strong wrong message to daughter predictors of Alzheimer’s disease Dear Abby: You were wrong to advise “Starting Anew in Ohio” (Nov. 7), the mother of a 10-year-old girl who wanted the bigger bedroom in their new house, to have her kids draw straws.

When the girl made the request, her older brother said he didn’t care. The time to have drawn straws was when the girl first made the request, not two months afterward.

The girl is at an age when children can be particularly sensitive about trust issues, and the boy is old enough to know words have consequences. If the parents reverse course now, the girl will learn her parents’ promises mean nothing, and the boy will learn he doesn’t have to worry about what he says because he can always change it later.

These are not good lessons to teach children. That the father would bow to the boy’s request made the situation worse. Maybe he’d think twice if he realized his daughter now will doubt his word always. – Judy In Ohio Dear Judy: You are not the only reader who told me my answer wasn’t up to my usual standards. In fact, not a single person who wrote to comment agreed with me, and their points were valid.

Their comments: Dear Abby: Your solution won’t keep the peace in that household; it will end it.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips The daughter will learn her parents can’t be trusted to keep a promise; the son will think he can take anything he wants from his sister because, as the male, he gets his way.

No, Abby, a promise is a promise. And if there’s any lesson more important to teach our children, I can’t imagine what it is. – Holly In

Pennsylvania Dear Abby: This is the time to teach that 12-year-old “young man” to be a man of his word. He made the decision his sister could have the room. The daughter had the guts to ask for what she wanted. Good for her for asking for what she wants. Now they should draw straws to determine the outcome?

The message this sends to the children is, “If you’re older, you can get what you want. If you make a promise, you can break it.” The daughter should not lose out on what she was promised. –

Danielle In Wisconsin Dear Abby: May I offer a suggestion? The children should be told each year around the anniversary of their moving to the new house, they will change rooms. It may take some effort and energy, but the ben-

efit would be both brother and sister get to experience the larger bedroom. It will teach them to compromise. –

Tami In Colorado Dear Abby: Having been through this type of situation as a child, I can tell you it destroyed my trust in my mother. Believe me, this will have far-reaching and unintended repercussions in that little girl’s life. A promise is a promise. – Candace In The

Rockies Dear Abby: Whatever happened to respect for your elders? None of my six nieces and nephews ever has called me “Uncle Sam,” nor have any of their children called me “Mr. B.” When the 5-year-old called me “Sammy,” a name I loathe, I nearly snapped. Am I out of line? – Sam In Sheffield,

Mass.

Dear Sam: If “Uncle Sam” is what you prefer to be called, you should have made that clear to your siblings when the nieces and nephews were little. Children are imitative. If their parents call you and refer to you as just plain Sam, don’t blame the children for doing the same. I don’t know how old the kids are now, but it may be a little late for you to start complaining about this.

Dear Dr. K: Alzheimer’s disease runs in my family.

Will it help to get gene testing for this disease?

Dear Reader: Family history is indeed a risk factor for Alzheimer’s. If you have a parent or sibling with Alzheimer’s, you’re more likely to develop the disease than someone who does not have a close relative with this condition.

Genetics is most important in families with a history of early-onset Alzheimer’s (occurring between ages 30 and 60). The early-onset form accounts for less than 1 percent of all Alzheimer’s cases, but in most people with early-onset disease, the cause is one of several altered, or mutated, genes the person has inherited from a parent.

Several genes responsible for early-onset Alzheimer’s have been identified. They are called APP, PSEN1 and PSEN2.

If someone inherits one of these mutated genes, it is very likely (but not certain) he or she will develop the disease.

Testing for these genes is costly and usually is not covered by insurance. At this time, there is no treatment proven to prevent or slow the onset of Alzheim-

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff er’s disease. However, some people want to know if they have one of these genes so they can use that information in planning for their future.

If one of my parents had developed early-onset Alzheimer’s, I would have wanted to know if I had inherited the gene. If so, I might have planned my career and my nonprofessional life differently.

Fortunately, my parents did not develop this disease.

You also may choose to be tested. For you, like me, perhaps bad news is better than living with uncertainty. Or you may want the opportunity to enroll in trials for experimental treatments.

Everything I’ve said so far applies only to earlyonset Alzheimer’s disease.

Most cases of the disease start after age 60. We know of just one gene that is a reasonably strong predictor of this more typical form of Alzheimer’s: APOE. People who inherit two copies of the APOE4 type of the APOE gene are at much

higher risk for developing Alzheimer’s compared with people who have no copies of the gene.

However, most authorities do not recommend getting tested for the APOE4 gene. That’s because the gene does not provide a solid answer. If you inherit two copies of the gene, you may still avoid Alzheimer’s.

And if you inherit no copies, you may still get it. Nevertheless, some people want to know if they are at increased risk. I have not had myself tested for this gene.

Human genetics has developed enormously in the past 30 years. In the 1980s, few scientists imagined we would discover the structure of every human gene in their lifetime, or even their children’s lifetime.

But we have. And we have identified thousands of genes that are linked to particular diseases.

However, this information has not yet led to many highly accurate predictions of what diseases a person is at high risk for, or to many cures. In tomorrow’s column, I’ll explain why.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - This will be your year to shine. Your energy, creativity and intuition levels are at an all-time high.

Goals you previously thought unattainable will soon fall into place. Your knowledge and achievements will serve to provide you with scads of imagination and inspiration.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Demanding people are likely to get you down. Don’t feel that you have to be everything to everyone. Make a point of keeping some time for yourself to prevent enervation.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Disagreements and confrontations will not resolve pending issues. Your reputation will be at risk if you argue about unimportant matters. Let some things slide in order to avoid alienating your peers.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Avoid uncomfortable situations by using discretion. Although you may favor one person over another, giving too much attention to someone will not help you gain overall support.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Others will be impressed by your achievements if you stop procrastinating and start acting. With persistence and planning, you can clear your agenda for more pleasurable activities.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Get rid of tension by taking care of household chores or doing something physical. You will be surprised how much more relieved and relaxed you feel in a clean and comfortable environment.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Your social life may need a pick-me-up. Join a service, club or organization and meet new people. Sharing common interests will stimulate your senses and improve your outlook.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It is never a good idea to flaunt your wealth around strangers. Be especially careful with your valuable possessions. A lack of vigilance on your part could result in loss.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Keep your emotions in check. Disagreements may occur if you become stressed or unhappy. Commit to staying active in order to avoid conflicts and ensure focus.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Concentrate your attentions on your family and loved ones. Satisfying relationships require nurturing and effort. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future to deal with career concerns.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You will need to be more assertive in your efforts to move ahead in the workplace. Emphasize your special skills, qualities and versatility. Stop waiting for others to notice your achievements.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - Be sensitive to the feelings of those you care about. Convey your thoughts with clarity and concern. A casual remark may be misinterpreted, causing a rift in your relationship.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Don’t feel lethargic and dispirited. Broaden your interests by learning something new. Your local library or bookstore contains information on hundreds of topics to inform and inspire you.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

Kevin Barry, an Irish author, said, “When you wake up, instead of checking emails on your phone, or counting your retweets, pick up a pen and scratch a few sentences into a notebook.”

Or sit at a computer keyboard and type a few articles into a word processor.

Over the last seven columns, I have been stressing counting, primarily by the defenders. Here is one more example, by way of revision because someone once told me that repetition is good in a teaching environment. (I hope he is right.)

South zooms into four hearts. West leads the spade queen. How should the declarer-play and defense go?

Note that three no-trump has no chance. That is usually a tough contract to make when you have two or three aces to dislodge. The defenders have a lot of time to establish and run their long suit.

In four hearts, South starts with four losers: one in each suit. He has 10 possible tricks: two spades, four hearts, two diamonds and two clubs.

However, he will get those two club tricks only if East

errs, since declarer has no dummy entry outside clubs.

South’s best chance is to win trick one with the spade ace and play a club, hoping the opponent with the ace wins immediately. West, though, should play his eight, starting a high-low with an even number. East should then work out that declarer started with two clubs. (With four, South would not be attacking clubs this quickly; he would surely be drawing trumps.) So East should duck the irst club, take the second, and return a spade to kill the contract.
