Good morning, McHenry County ...

Franks fundraising results in big week State Rep. Jack Franks had a big fundraising week last week despite not facing a primary opponent in the 63rd District.

Franks, a Marengo Democrat, received nearly $12,000 in reported contributions last week.

Candidates are required to disclose finances quarterly, but all contributions of $1,000 or more are required to be disclosed immediately.

Topping the list was a $2,500 contribution from Chicago law firm Peck Ritchey. Chicago’s Hubbard Inn contributed $1,967.24 worth of food for a fundraiser, and the law office of James A. Knepper gave Franks $1,500.

The remainder of Franks’ money came in the form of $1,000 contributions from Illinois BANKPAC, a political action committee (PAC) organized by members of the Illinois Bankers Association; Illinois Farm Equipment Political Education Fund; Chicago law firm Power Rogers &

Chris Pry goes outside Saturday to train for the Hustle up the Hancock challenge at his home in Crystal Lake.

CRYSTAL LAKE – There was a time when fear and frustration ruled Chris Pry’s life.

During that time, the Crystal Lake man couldn’t walk up seven stairs without needing to rest at the top.

He spent those years being afraid of an operation he knew he’d need, the same one his younger brother didn’t survive.

Pry, 35, has cystic fibrosis. And his life looks starkly different than before a double lung transplant he underwent about a year and a half ago.

“I had symptoms since I was born ... but doctors didn’t catch it On the Web right away,” Pry said. “They only To donate to caught it when my the Respiratory brother was born Health Association, and he had comvisit Chris Pry’s plications from it fundraising page at right from birth.”

Pry said he and lungchicago.org. his brother, Michael, lived active childhoods, which helped keep them healthy through high school.

“But as soon as we went to universities, where we weren’t playing on teams and not getting the same kind of exercise, that’s when the symptoms really started,” Pry said.

A genetic disease that causes mucus buildup in the lungs, pancreas and other organs, cystic fibrosis, or CF, results in persistent lung infections and eventual respiratory failure along with usually a variety of other issues, according to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

It’s found in about 70,000 people worldwide with about 30,000 of those people living in the U.S. Mostly affecting children and young adults, CF comes with a life expectancy of about 37 years old.

For Pry specifically, it’s a disease that made hospital stays routine and eventually made drawing a single breath a laborious task.

Erin Lowery, Pry’s doctor at Loyola University Medical Center, said about 90 percent of patients with the disease will ultimately end up needing a lung

LITH police investigating empty car found in creek

LAKE IN THE HILLS – Police are investigating what caused a driver to crash into a creek and leave the scene of the crash early Tuesday morning in Lake in the Hills.

Officer Adam Carson said police were dispatched at 1:10 a.m. to Menominee Drive west of Pyott Road for a single-vehicle crash. When officers arrived, Carson said they found an unoccupied Chevy Malibu wedged into the creek with water up to the door line.

Menominee Drive dead ends at the creek, and there are no barriers at the end of the street, Carson said.

Police believe only the driver was in the vehicle, but the crash remains under investigation. They were interviewing a subject regarding the crash about five hours later.

The car was towed, Carson said.

Stylist Jessica Baber, who suffers from multiple sclerosis, colors the hair of her cousin, Tiffany Goodman of McHenry, on Monday at Profile Salon and Spa in Algonquin. The salon will hold a fundraiser from 4 to 7 p.m. March 11 to benefit Can Do MS.

Salon to hold MS fundraiser

March event to support co-worker with disease

If you go

cswieca@shawmedia.com

n WHAT: Fundraiser to benefit Can Do MS n WHEN: 4 to 7 p.m. March 11 n WHERE: Profile Salon and Spa, 268 S. Randall Road, Algonquin

ALGONQUIN – It was fitting that Jessica Baber thought of the idea for Profile Salon’s “Fighting MS” fundraiser in the middle of a massage from her co-worker Beckie Washington.

The frequent massages are part of the complicated routine Baber goes through to try to manage the symptoms of multiple sclerosis, a disease she was diagnosed with in 2011.

Profile Salon and Spa, 268 S. Randall Road, will host a fundraiser from 4 to 7 p.m. March 11 with proceeds going to Can Do MS. The charity was hand-picked by Baber, who says a healthy attitude has gone a long way in fighting the symptoms of MS. “I know that the biggest deal with MS is the depression that comes with it,” she

said. “That’s the biggest reason for supporting the Can Do foundation, because their message is focused on what you can do rather than what you can’t.”

Baber said she was a healthy and active 28-year-old when she was diagnosed with MS. She woke up one morning with tingling in her left side, and by the time she saw a doctor five days later, she couldn’t move that side of her body at all.

Since the diagnosis, Baber said she’s had to monitor herself more carefully, limiting the hours she works in a day, being careful not to overheat when working out and making sure she gets enough sleep.

Despite the fact that MS often causes fatigue or impaired coordination, Baber

By CAITLIN SWIECA

has worked to stay healthy enough to continue being a hairstylist.

Her routine blends exercise, massages, chiropractic, acupuncture and a mix of Eastern and Western medicines.

“I do lots of physical therapy to still be able to do my job,” Baber said. “It’s not the best job to have with MS, but I love making people happy and transforming their day. People feel good about themselves, and that brings me joy.”

Washington, a massage therapist at the salon who is part of the team organizing the event, said the event will include chair massages, partially because Baber undergoes massages frequently at the salon.

“We’re trying to do a lot of the stuff [at the event] we do on a daily basis,” Washington said.

The event also will include raffles, vendors and services such as hair tinsel applications, glitter tattoos and polish changes.

The group also has set up an online donation page for anyone who can’t make it to the event.

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – An attorney for former McHenry County Coroner Marlene Lantz has asked a judge to dismiss official misconduct charges against her because the responsibility to bury two fetuses discovered in her office fell to the parents, a fact the defense alleges prosecutors purposely misrepresented to the grand jury.

Lantz, 68, of McHenry was indicted last year on charges of official misconduct and forgery, alleging that she failed to properly dispose of or bury “Baby Doe,” a fetus that was discovered at a Crystal Lake restaurant in 1992.

She later was charged with two additional counts of official misconduct for failing to bury or dispose of “Baby Angel Harris,” a 22-week-old male.

In his motion filed Friday to dismiss four official misconduct charges against Lantz, Special State’s Attorney James Harrison argued that prosecutors did not specify what Lantz had done to violate the law regarding the disposal of the remains.

He said there are several instances in which this would not have been a violation.

In this case, he said, the duty to dispose of the remains falls to the next of kin – each fetus had one or more parents.

“The duty that wasn’t fulfilled is the duty of the parents, not of the coroner,” Harrison said.

If Lantz had disposed of the re-

McHenry County Coroner Marlene Lantz retired in 2012 after serving six consecutive terms as coroner since 1988. She was indicted last year on charges of misconduct and forgery, alleging she failed to properly dispose of or bury two fetuses. In a motion filed Friday, Lantz’s attorney asked a judge to dismiss four official misconduct charges against Lantz. mains, it would have been in direct contradiction with the law and provided a basis for legitimate official misconduct charges, Harrison argued.

Further, Harrison said, when prosecutors presented the case to the grand jury, they misrepresented the law by failing to tell jurors about the parents’ duties to dispose of the deceased.

In one instance presented in the motion, a juror asked prosecutors if there was any record the parents came forward to ask about the remains.

The prosecutor’s response was that they were contacted, but it was unclear if that was relevant to the coroner’s duties or probable cause of a crime.

The alleged prosecutorial miscon-

duct denied Lantz of her right to due process, Harrison claimed.

He is seeking to have the charges against Lantz, who retired in 2012 after 24 years in office, dismissed with prejudice.

Harrison would not comment on why the remains were not claimed by the parents. He also did not address the remaining charge against Lantz of forgery.

Harrison has represented Lantz since December when her appointed attorney, Mark Gummerson, withdrew from the case.

Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs declined to comment on the motion.

Prosecutors have 28 days to file a response.

uncertainty remains about how far north and west the snow will fall, but McHenry County could receive up to a couple inches beginning Wednesday afternoon.

Snow will be heavier in northwest Indiana where Castro said they could receive more than eight inches of heavy, wet snow.

Castro said wind gusts of up to 40 mph

will begin in the morning.

“People traveling southeast should prepare for adverse travel conditions,” Castro said. “We have high confidence in the winds being a problem.”

Castro encouraged residents to monitor the forecast as snowfall amounts could change.

“By creating this ‘Illinois Property Tax Relief Fund’ we can begin to hold local taxing bodies accountable, effect fiscal responsibility and promote fiscal conservatism within – and in a very meaningful way,” Serwatka said.

The $67,836 that Illinois lawmakers receive is a base salary – lawmakers can add thousands of dollars to it a year as chairmen or vice chairmen of legislative committees or being part of party leadership.

Illinois state legislators are among the highest paid in the nation.

Serwatka also waived the salary that comes with being a village trustee after his upset victory in 2015 as a write-in candidate.

and northern Kane counties, including parts of Crystal Lake, Lake in the Hills, Algonquin, Huntley, Carpentersville, East Dundee, West Dundee and Elgin.

Serwatka and candidates Allen Skillicorn, Carolyn Schofield and Dan Wilbrandt are running to succeed Rep. Mike Tryon, who is not seeking re-election.

Data compiled by the nonpartisan Tax Foundation puts Illinois’ average property tax burden at 2.32 percent of home value, just behind New Jersey.

When broken down by county, the group ranks McHenry County’s average property tax burden as the 29th highest nationwide as of 2010.

Kane County ranks just behind it at 30th highest.

Illinois also has far more units of local government than any other state – the Land of Lincoln has about 7,000 local governments, which makes keeping an eye on them and making them more fiscally accountable a daunting task.

Illinois 66th House District candidate Paul Serwatka is pledging if elected to contribute the office’s taxpayer-funded salary to fight for local tax relief.

Serwatka announced last week that he will donate the entire first-year paycheck – $67,836, not counting the per diem reimbursement – to what he called a “Property Tax Relief Fund.”

The fund would provide seed money for initiatives such as backing fiscally conservative candidates for local government and organizing local tax watchdog groups to help fight for lower property taxes.

The areas of McHenry and Kane counties covered by the 66th District have among the nation’s highest average property tax bills.

Serwatka said he has been kicking around the idea for some time during town hall meetings with constituents – while running for federal, state or county and municipal government can be an expensive chore, he said the fund can make running for school, library and park boards less daunting for candidates committed to govern-

“By creating this ‘Illinois Property Tax Relief Fund’ we can begin to hold local taxing bodies accountable, effect fiscal responsibility and promote fiscal conservatism within – and in a very meaningful way.”

VIEWS Joan Oliver ing to an already-astronomical debt can be considered “covered.”

Still, we’re starting to hear disturbing reports of social service agencies, public universities and other vendors that are not receiving the money they are expecting.

We’ve been down this road before.

Yet it always seems to be the most vulnerable who are the ones who suffer when the state’s bigwigs can’t agree.

Why do people like Susan Jette of McHenry, whose husband, Al, has Alzheimer’s disease and uses the day program at Family Alliance, have to be the ones who are put at risk? Jette told reporter Hannah Prokop for a story last week that those services help not only her husband, but give

her needed support, as well.

The nonprofit Family Alliance provides day health, memory care and respite programs at locations in Huntley and Woodstock. The state currently owes the agency $98,000 for its adult day services program; state funding makes up 20 percent of the agency’s budget, Executive Director Kim Larson told Prokop.

Family Alliance isn’t the only social service agency feeling the pinch and looking for ways to weather the storm.

The longer this state budget impasse continues, the more likely it will be that we’ll hear about even more.

And the longer it goes on, one has to wonder how many of these agencies will survive.

Do Rauner and the legislators actually realize that good citizens of Illinois are being affected? The same ones they have sworn to serve?

Would they continue to drag their

feet if it was their family member who no longer had access to mental health services?

Would they delay coming to the table if it was their loved one who was being crushed by the burden of caregiving and couldn’t get even a few hours of respite?

Would they put off a solution if it was their child who could not go to a public university because grant funding from the state dried up?

Rauner and the legislators need to stop pointing fingers, look in the mirror and come to the table. This isn’t about winners and losers.

It’s about serving the good citizens of Illinois and doing their jobs.

Enough with the politics.

Many of us wouldn’t consider ourselves political animals. The ideological tug-of-war between the major parties on all levels of government just isn’t our thing.

However, we would consider ourselves good citizens. We dutifully pay our taxes. We follow the rules and strive to live by the laws of the land.

Most of all, we do our best to pay our bills. We do that not only because it’s the right thing to do, but also because there are consequences when we do not.

Sadly, the state of Illinois doesn’t play by the same rules.

The state has been operating without a budget for this year since July 1 because of a standoff between Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and the Democrats who control the Legislature.

Meanwhile, there are bills that have to be paid, contracts that must be lived up to. Granted, about 90 percent of the bills are being covered, if add-

That time came for Michael first.

“My brother went through the transplant process in 2010,” Pry remembered, sitting at a small table in a Crystal Lake Starbucks, his hands lightly wrapped around a coffee cup. “[Michael] didn’t make it through the surgery.”

After years of dealing with the disease together, it didn’t make sense, Pry added.

“Seeing him deteriorate faster – that was really hard because he was my younger brother,” he said, looking down.

Michael was 27 when he died, and not only was it a devastating loss for the family, but it reaffirmed one of Pry’s greatest fears when he went in for his own transplant four years later.

“Growing up, I knew we would face the whole transplant thing, and my biggest fear was passing away on the table, and then that’s what happened to [Michael],” he said.

But between 48 and 72 hours after he went under anesthesia, Pry woke up. Then, there was only relief and an immediate determination to pick up his life where he left off.

MARENGO

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com MARENGO – The city of Marengo approved the first step toward bringing drinkable water to properties outside of the city on Ritz Road that have contaminated water.

Although the agreement, passed by the Marengo City Council at its meeting Monday, would allow for the Marengo Township residents to eventually connect to the city’s water system, some felt like their input was left out of the agreement.

“We have no voice. None,” Ritz Road resident Ann Anthony said after the meeting.

Anthony and two others spoke out at the meeting, and about 10 people gathered after the meeting to express concerns with the agreement.

One of those concerns was a section of the agreement that said if a property changes from its residential use,

We would take into consideration any proposals to provide residents with safe drinking water, which would have to be part of any final resolution to the case.”

Arevalo said. “But if the use would be such that it would create an impact on city facilities and the city water, then something has to be addressed, and this, we believe, was the way of addressing that potential issue.”

Township residents noted it is unclear how this would affect properties that are currently used for a business.

Some concerns, such as the exact timeline for the project, are out of the city’s hands, Arevalo said.

Annie Thompson, deputy press “This is really the city’s effort to secretary with the attorney general’s office assist in this process, but we do not represent the nonresidents,” Arevalo said. the city reserves the right to limit or The possible solution comes about discontinue service until the proper- two and a half years after the Illinois ty owner annexes into the city or has Attorney General’s Office filed a comsatisfied the city’s requirements with plaint against 300 West and Arnold Enchange of property use. gineering Co. for alleged groundwater “We are not requiring annexation and soil contamination on the site at because we understand that is not 300 N.

OK with that,” City Attorney Carlos The agreement is contingent on the

Illinois Attorney General’s Office’s decision to enter an agreed upon order committing 300 West and Arnold Engineering to the construction agreement, according to city documents.

“The city’s agreement with the defendant is a step toward providing impacted residents with an alternate drinking water supply, which is something that we are seeking through our litigation,” said Annie Thompson, deputy press secretary with the attorney general’s office. “We would take into consideration any proposals to provide residents with safe drinking water, which would have to be part of any final resolution to the case.”

The agreement with the city does not address cleaning up the contamination or fix the residents’ property values, but getting city water is “the only way that we’ll start to fix our properties,” Anthony said.

Dennis Hammortree was the sole no vote from the council.

Fidel Castro’s brother, Ramon, dies at age 91 The ASSOCIATED PRESS HAVANA – Ramon Castro, a lifelong rancher and farmer who bore a strong physical resemblance to younger brother Fidel Castro, has died, Cuban state media announced Tuesday.

He was 91.

Widely known by his nickname “Mongo,” the white-bearded Ramon Castro preferred tending crops and livestock to the revolutionary political life embraced by his younger siblings Fidel and Raul, who replaced Fidel as Cuba’s president in February 2008.

Two years older than Fidel, Ramon was long used to getting double-takes from people who insisted he looked just like his famous brother. At times,

Ramon was said to reply that because he was older, Fidel actually looked like him.

Ramon, Fidel and Raul were the second, third and fourth children of Angel Castro, a Spanish-born rancher, and his second wife, Lina Ruz. Angel Castro also had two other children from a previous marriage.

The three brothers attended Roman Cath- Ramon olic schools in eastern Castro Cuba, where their teachers complained about their pranks and troublemaking, prompting Angel to pull them out of classes for some time.

Once grown, Fidel and Raul headed

Country singer Sonny James dies at age 87

By KRISTIN M. HALL The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Country singer Sonny James, who recorded romantic ballads such as “Young Love” and turned pop songs into country hits, has died. He was 87.

James, whose given name was James Loden, died Monday in a Nashville hospice facility, according to a family friend, Gary Robble, who was the lead singer of James’ backing band, the Southern Gentlemen.

The singer born in Hackleburg, Alabama, was known as the “Southern Gentleman” because of his gentle, respectable demeanor. He was also a songwriter as well as a guitarist and fiddler.

He started his music career with his family’s band with his parents and his sister, Thelma. Before he reached high school age, he already had performed on several country music radio shows.

As he started his own musical career, Capitol producer Ken Nelson suggested he use a combination of his nickname, “Sonny Boy,” with his first name as his professional name.

In 1956, James scored his biggest hit, “Young Love,” which sold 3 million copies and became a No. 1 hit on the country and pop charts.

A decade later, he started an impressive run on top of the country charts with 16 consecutive No. 1 songs between 1967 and 1971.

His other hits included “It’s the Little Things,” “You’re the Only World I Know,” “I’ll Never Find An-

other You,” “Empty Arms,” “Behind the Tear,” “Take Good Care of Her,” “When the Snow Is on the Roses,” “That’s Why I Love You Like I Do” and “Here Comes Honey Again.”

“Sonny James was one of country music’s greatest. He was a true gentleman and made some of the greatest country music records of all times, certainly some of my favorites,” singer Dolly Parton said in a statement.

Robble said James invited the Southern Gentlemen to record and tour with him, Sonny James which created a vocal-driven sound based on hit songs from the R&B and pop genre. Some of his popular covers included “Since I Met You Baby,” “Endlessly,” “Running Bear,” “It’s Just a Matter of Time,” “Only the Lonely” and “Only Love Can Break a Heart.”

“Sonny made country music more commercial,” Robble said.

“He wasn’t trying to. He was singing what he enjoyed singing.”

James was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2006.

In the 1960s, he made several motion pictures, including “Second Fiddle to a Steel Guitar,” “Las Vegas Hillbillies” (with Jayne Mansfield) and “Hillbilly in a Haunted House” (with Basil Rathbone and Lon Chaney Jr.).

He then went on to produce Marie Osmond’s first records, including her biggest country hit, “Paper Roses.”

off to Havana for studies, then the business of launching a revolution against dictator Fulgencio Batista, who seized power in a 1952 coup.

But Ramon Castro was content to remain in the village of Biran in eastern Cuba, where he helped his father with the family business.

Nevertheless, Ramon remained in contact with his siblings. He wrote letters to Fidel in prison when he and Raul and other followers were arrested after their unsuccessful 1953 attack on a military barracks that launched their armed struggle. Sometimes along with the correspondence, Ramon sent along a ham or a box of cigars.

According to letters from that period, Fidel asked Ramon to assure their

parents that prison was not “a horrible and shameful idea. ... When one’s motives are lofty and great, then it is an honorable place.”

After Fidel and his followers established their rebel stronghold in Cuba’s eastern mountains, there was at least one recorded instance of Fidel visiting the family ranch, where he feasted on a turkey that Ramon had kept frozen for months in hopes of such a visit.

Following the 1959 triumph of the Cuban revolution and Fidel’s subsequent rise to power, Ramon often worked as a consultant for the government ministries of agriculture and sugar. In the early 1960s, he oversaw sugar production in eastern Cuba, where he helped increase output.

Chicago police recruit more minorities

By JASON KEYSER

The Associated Press CHICAGO – A campaign to increase diversity in the ranks of the Chicago Police Department has resulted in a 13 percentage point jump in minority applicants, the department said in an announcement emphasizing its efforts to restore frayed trust with the black community.

About 70 percent of the 14,000 would-be officers in a recent pool of applicants are black, Hispanic or Asian, the department said in Monday’s news release. Recruiters visited churches, schools and community events, and the department produced ads in Spanish as well as English.

The minority recruitment drive is part of the department’s efforts to rebuild ties with the community that were badly damaged by recent cases

Unions sue Chicago suburb over right-to-work ordinance

LINCOLNSHIRE – Four labor unions are suing a Chicago suburb over an ordinance meant to bar private employers from requiring workers to join unions or pay dues.

Gov. Bruce Rauner has encouraged municipalities to pass local right-to-work ordinances as part of his “turnaround agenda,” which includes efforts to curb the power of unions, and also calls for workers’ compensation reform, property tax freezes, political term limits, lawsuit reforms and other changes.

Supporters of right-to-work legislation argue that it would help promote job growth, while opponents claim it would weaken unions and depress wages.

The lawsuit against Lincolnshire and key village officials was filed Thursday in federal court in Chicago by unions representing engineers, construction workers and carpenters, including three affiliated with the AFL-CIO. The unions are seeking to have the ordinance declared invalid and block its enforcement, the Daily Herald reported.

Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan issued a formal opinion last year, saying

“To continue restoring trust between the police and communities across Chicago, we must build a police force that represents the diversity of the entire city.”

Rahm Emanuel Chicago mayor

of alleged misconduct against blacks, including the 2014 killing of a black teenager shot 16 times by a white officer. The release in November of squad car video showing that killing set off protests and triggered a federal civilrights investigation.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel has responded by promising a thorough overhaul

federal labor law allows such policies to be enacted only on a statewide basis. But officials in Lincolnshire disregarded her opinion, as well as strong public opposition, and moved forward with the plan in December.

Rauner’s office has said several dozen local governments have adopted resolutions supporting his overall agenda.

But union officials have said they believe Lincolnshire is the first in the state to actually enact a right-to-work measure, which allows employees at private-sector companies to opt out of having union dues or fees automatically deducted from their paychecks. Most other communities in the north or northwest suburbs either rejected or ignored Rauner’s agenda, with several officials saying the issue should be dealt with at the state level.

The unions suing Lincolnshire argue that the ordinance violates the National Labor Relations Act and the Labor Management Relations Act by prohibiting union hiring agreements and payroll deductions for union dues and fees.

International Union of Operating Engineers Local 150 spokesman Ed Maher said village officials had a “blatant disregard” for federal law in the matter.

Man charged with trying to kill Illinois deputy

LAWRENCEVILLE – A southern Illinois man faces a charge of attempted first-degree murder of a police officer af-

of the police department’s leadership and the “culture” of policing in Chicago.

“To continue restoring trust between the police and communities across Chicago, we must build a police force that represents the diversity of the entire city,” Emanuel said in a news release Monday to announce the recruitment numbers.

Activist and pastor Jedidiah Brown, who has been part of both protests and meetings with the mayor about policing, said there’s a difference between recruiting applicants and actually putting them into uniforms on the streets.

“They’ve had many black applicants in times past, but they were not hired,” he said. “Unless that changes, I’m not impressed.”

Applicants must pass a written exam, attend the Police Academy and serve as a probationary officer before

becoming full-fledged officers.

Minorities made up 58 percent of the total applicant pool in the last recruiting campaign, in 2013, according to Police Department data. Of those who actually took the written test in 2010, 53 percent were minorities.

There is some research showing a more diverse police force has important symbolic value and can influence attitudes, but it is just one piece of building a better relationship with the community, said Jens Ludwig, director of the University of Chicago Crime Lab. “Increasing the share of the police force that is minority is not a panacea for improving police-community relations,” Ludwig said. Police also need to interact with people outside of responding to 911 calls through things such as foot patrols and community meetings, he said.

ter allegedly shooting a sheriff’s deputy who was saved by his body armor.

Lawrence County State’s Attorney Chris Quick filed the charge Tuesday against 55-year-old Keith McKinney of Lawrenceville.

Investigators say McKinney fired a gunshot that struck Lawrence County Deputy Kyle Gilmore in the chest after the officer made a traffic stop Monday.

The Evansville Courier & Press reported Gilmore’s body armor stopped the bullet, and the deputy returned fire, striking McKinney in the leg.

McKinney was taken to a hospital in Evansville, Indiana, where he underwent surgery for his injuries. He remains hospitalized under police guard. It’s unclear whether he has an attorney who might comment on his behalf.

Mulryan told the Chicago Sun-Times that Davies isn’t “going to say to the city, ‘Come along and take the building if you like.’ ” The post office closed in 1995. Davies’ company bought it for $17 million in 2009. It has planned a retail, residential and entertainment center. But the city said no work was ever completed.

Owner won’t let city take over Chicago post office

CHICAGO – A project manager for the British developer who owns the massive Old Main Post Office in Chicago said he won’t just let the city take over the vacant and deteriorating structure.

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel has said the city is seeking to take control of the 11-acre site from developer Bill Davies through eminent domain. Emanuel said the city will ask for bids to redevelop what he called “one of Chicago’s iconic structures.”

Judge rules against city in red-light camera suit

CHICAGO – A Cook County judge has denied a request from the city of Chicago to dismiss a lawsuit claiming it denied due process to motorists ticketed under its red-light camera program.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported that Judge Kathleen Kennedy’s late Friday ruling declares the tickets void and keeps alive a lawsuit seeking to have the city refund hundreds of millions of dollars to motorists ticketed since 2003.

Plaintiffs’ attorney Jacie Zolna can now move forward with a request for class-action status. The lawsuit, filed on behalf of three named plaintiffs, argued the city violated a requirement to issue a second notice of violation before a determination of liability was issued against motorists.

City Law Department spokesman Bill McCaffrey said the city believes the plaintiffs aren’t entitled to “any recovery, let alone any refunds.”

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump takes pictures with supporters during a rally Tuesday in Reno, Nev.

Trump gets win as Rubio bids to elbow past Cruz in Nevada The ASSOCIATED PRESS LAS VEGAS – Donald Trump notched a win in Nevada’s Republican caucuses on Tuesday as Marco Rubio bid to elbow out Ted Cruz for second place in an increasingly urgent effort to slam the brakes on the Trump juggernaut.

Trump now has three straight victories – in the West, the South and Northeast – a testament to his broad appeal among the mad-ashell voters making their voices heard in the 2016 presidential race.

Six in 10 caucus goers said they were angry with the way the government is working, and Trump got about half of those angry voters, according to preliminary results of an entrance poll.

Nevada was a critical test for Rubio and Cruz, the two senators battling to emerge as the clear alternative to the GOP front-runner. Rubio was out to prove he can build on recent momentum, while Cruz was looking for a spark to recover from a particularly rocky stretch in his campaign.

Rubio, already campaigning in Michigan as caucus results rolled in, was projecting confidence that he can consolidate the non-Trump voters who have been splintering among an assortment of GOP candidates, saying, “We have incredible room to grow.”

Cruz, a fiery conservative popular among voters on the GOP’s right, finished a disappointing third in South Carolina after spending much of the past two weeks denying charges of dishonest campaign tactics and defending

his integrity. Another disappointing finish in Nevada would raise new questions about his viability heading into a crucial batch of Super Tuesday states on March 1.

“There’s something wrong with this guy,” Trump said with his usual measure of tact during a massive Las Vegas rally Monday night. The former reality TV star tweeted on Tuesday, “He used him as a scape goat-fired like a dog! Ted panicked.”

Nevada’s caucusing played out in schools, community centers and places of worship across the state – a process that’s been chaotic in the past.

Count Tracy Brigida, fed up after her husband was laid off from his mining job, among those caucusing for Trump.

“I want a businessman to run the biggest business in the world,” Brigida said as she caucused at a Las Vegas high school.

Jeremy Haight drove straight from his marketing job to caucus for Marco Rubio at the same high school.

“He’s the most level-headed. He hasn’t said anything stupid or crazy ... which is really what I think the country needs,” Haight said.

It was Cruz for Megan Ortega, who declared: “He’s consistent, he’s bold and he’s a class act.”

Preliminary results of the entrance poll found that about 3 in 10 early caucus goers said the quality that mattered most to them in choosing a candidate was that he shares their values, slightly more than the quarter who said they want a candidate who can win in November.

McConnell shuts door on action for Obama selection

By ALAN FRAM

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Majority Leader Mitch McConnell emphatically ruled out any Senate action on whoever President Barack Obama nominates to fill the Supreme Court vacancy, an extraordinary step that escalated the partisan election-year struggle over replacing the late Antonin Scalia. Democrats promised unremitting pressure on Republicans to back down or face the consequences in November’s voting.

After winning unanimous public backing from the 11 Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee, McConnell told reporters that that panel would hold no hearings and ruled out a full Senate vote until the next president offers a nomination. Such steps would defy many decades of precedent that have seen even the most controversial choices questioned publicly by the Judiciary Committee and nearly always sent to the entire chamber for a vote, barring nominees the White House has withdrawn.

“In short, there will not be action taken,” McConnell told reporters.

The Kentucky Republican said he wouldn’t even meet with an Obama selection should the White House follow tradition and send the nominee to Cap-

Such a snub could generate campaign-season television images of a scorned selection standing outside a closed door.

“I don’t know the purpose of such a visit,” McConnell said. “I would not be inclined to take one myself.”

Obama is expected to announce a nomination in the next few weeks. Since

the Senate started routinely referring presidential nominations to committees for action in 1955, every Supreme Court nominee not later withdrawn has received a Judiciary Committee hearing, according to the Senate Historical Office.

With the issue certain to roil this year’s presidential and congressional

elections, Democrats said Republicans were topping their own obstructionist high-water mark of three years ago, when their doomed effort to force Obama to repeal his own health care law helped produce a 16-day partial government shutdown.

They also accused Republicans of following the lead of billionaire Donald Trump, a leading GOP presidential candidate who’s called on Senate Republicans to derail any Obama court selection. Democrats and some Republicans believe that if Trump is the GOP presidential nominee, he will cost Republicans seats in Congress.

“The party of Lincoln is now the party of Donald Trump,” Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., told reporters.

Filling the vacancy left by Scalia’s unexpected death on Feb. 13 is crucial because without him, the Supreme Court is left in a 4-4 ideological knot between justices who are usually conservative and its liberal wing. The battle has invigorated both sides’ interest groups and voters who focus on abortion, immigration and other issues before the court.

“He hasn’t seen the pressure that’s going to build,” Reid said when asked if McConnell might relent. “It’s going to build in all facets of the political constituency and the country.”

WASHINGTON – Here’s something that Democrats, Republicans and independents agree on. When it comes to the economy, they all want to protect Social Security and lower unemployment.

That’s where their similarities end.

Beyond the top two issues, Americans’ lists of top economic concerns for the next president are more fractured, according to a poll conducted by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

Democrats attach far more importance than do Republicans to narrowing the gap between rich and poor, reducing poverty and increasing wages to keep up with the cost of living.

Republicans place far more importance than Democrats on shrinking the federal deficit, reducing government regulation and reforming welfare.

So while Americans of all stripes consistently put the economy at or

near the top of their most important issues, they sometimes have very different concerns when they do so.

Philadelphian James Leake, living on disability at age 50, worries about another economic “blowout” and zeroes in on income inequality as Ted Cruz a key problem.

“The corporations are taking more and more and more, and I’m like, ‘Don’t you ... realize the bubble is soon going to burst?’ ” said Leake, a Democrat.

Bernie But Edward Vasquez, Sanders an engineer from Odessa, Texas, thinks income inequality isn’t even real.

“It’s a perceived problem,” said Vasquez, who calls himself an “anti-establishment” Republican. “Even people that would call themselves poor, they don’t understand how rich they

are. Americans are spoiled brats.”

From such opposite perspectives, though, Leake and Vasquez both say protecting Social Security is an extremely important item for the next president’s to-do list.

“The way people do things in Washington, Donald they may take it away,” Trump Leake said.

“By the time I retire, it’s going to be a broken promise,” 44-year-old Vasquez said. “There’s not enough workers paying into the system.”

Overall, the APJohn Kasich NORC poll found 85 percent of Americans think protecting the future of Social Security is extremely or very important for the next president, and 81 percent said the same for reducing unemployment.

There’s a reason for their concerns about Social Security: The retirement

and disability program has enough money to pay full benefits until 2034, after which it will have only enough money to pay about 75 percent of benefits, going by current projections. Over the next 75 years, Social Security is projected to pay out $159 trillion more in benefits than it will collect in taxes, according to agency data.

The employment outlook is considerably brighter right now: The economy created 151,000 jobs in January, pushing the jobless rate down to an eight-year low of 4.9 percent.

Looking at the poll results by party, Republicans were most likely to single out reducing the federal deficit as an item that is extremely important or very important for the next president, with 86 percent highlighting that concern. The red ink outlook: President Barack Obama’s latest budget proposal sees the deficit rising from $438 billion last year to more than $500 billion for the 2017 budget year that starts Oct. 1.

Deficits over the coming decade would total $6 trillion.

ENDORSEMENT

State senator 26th District: McLaughlin Three candidates are running in the Republican primary to replace Dan Duffy in the 26th State Senate District.

The winner of the Republican primary faces an uncontested race in November’s election unless Democrats caucus in a candidate. The primary features Dan McConchie, Martin McLaughlin and Casey Urlacher.

McConchie is Duffy’s pick as his successor. He has not held an elected office and is vice president of government affairs for Americans United for Life – a pro-life public interest law firm and advocacy group. He bills himself as a life-long fiscal and social conservative. On pension reform, McConchie believes the state needs to test the constitutionality of moving current public employees into self-managed plans for future work while protecting already earned benefits. He opposes term limits for lawmakers unless they are part of a larger reform package, but he does support limits for legislative leaders.

Urlacher, a business development director for Englewood Construction, is the village president in Mettawa. He boasts not representing special interest groups or big money and takes issue with potential conflicts of interest he sees with his opponents. He favors analyzing the pension reform proposal currently under discussion and being negotiated between Gov. Bruce Rauner and the Senate Democrats. He supports term limits for lawmakers and legislative leaders.

McLaughlin, a managing director at ASB Investment Management who oversees the investment of public and private pensions, is the village president in Barrington Hills. He touts reducing spending, cutting taxes, resolving legal disputes and consolidating departments as part of his accomplishments in Barrington Hills. He supports a Tier 2 pension program for new state employees and making it available for existing employees.

McLaughlin also wants the state to move closer to the federal actuarial standard. He supports term limits for lawmakers and legislative leaders.

In this race, we believe McLaughlin’s pension background would be an asset. While we generally support Gov. Rauner’s Turnaround Agenda, we believe lawmakers must have an independent voice.

Given the amount of political action committee money being spent in support of McConchie, we question how beholden he’d be to Rauner and the PACs supporting him. We endorse McLaughlin.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

House doubling down on a bad plan Labor talks can be contentious, but that’s no reason for legislators to subvert the process. The recent vote by the Illinois House to intervene in labor negotiations between Gov. Bruce Rauner and a public employee union has led to another war of words about the unsuccessful labor talks.

Last week, the Illinois House passed H.B. 580, legislation that strips the governor’s office of its negotiating authority and leaves settlement of contract terms to independent arbitrators.

Rauner has promised to veto the bill if it reaches his desk and, for now at least, has the votes to make his veto stick.

As if to confirm the unsavory political intent of the legislation to favor a Democratic constituency group, the legislation would apply only to Rauner, not future governors. So the governor is well within his rights to call this bill what it is, a potentially costly bailout of labor at taxpayer expense.

Pressed to explain, the administration issued a statement detailing an extra $3.2 billion in costs taxpayers would bear if AFSCME’s contract proposal take effect. In response, AFSCME issued its own statement claiming “the administration is jacking up purported costs by including costs associated with other state employees and university employees, not just the 38,000 AFSCME state employees.”

If the union’s claims are accurate, it’s not as much at the mercy of Rauner as it claims to be. AFSCME’s contract has long since expired, but Gov. Rauner and union negotiators agreed to extend the contract indefinitely as talks continue. To allay union fears, Rauner also pledged in writing not to lock out state employees. The question of a work stoppage is left solely to the union.

The contract extension agreement also set up a process by which both sides can seek outside

assistance from the labor board if one side believes the talks have reached an impasse because the other was not bargaining in good faith.

Rauner has asked the board to declare an impasse, noting virtually no progress has been made on a contract after months of talks.

AFSCME disputes that.

There’s no doubt the stakes are potentially high. If the labor board rules there is an impasse, the governor would have legal authority to implement his final offer.

Considering the bankrupt state of the state, it should be no surprise he’s seeking a wage freeze. At the same time, union members could challenge that approach by going on strike.

Illinois has a long, successful history of collective bargaining.

The same rules apply to both sides, and there’s no need to change them in the middle of the game.

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

Welcome board presence

To the Editor: I support Sue Draffkorn for McHenry County Board District 4.

Even though I’ve known Sue a short time, I’ve taken a liking to her presence at the County Board meetings.

Sue is not loud and obnoxious and sits in her seat upright and attentive with the respect of the chairperson, her colleagues and public guests.

For the past five years, she has been involved in saving taxpayers $23 million by reducing the county levy and budget. She reduced the number of correction officers to correlate with the jail population and lowered the insurance premium by moving to self-funded insurance. There are two seats open on County Board District 4 and three candidates running. Please make sure we retain Sue Draffkorn.

Regna a proven leader

To the Editor: I believe our next McHenry County state’s attorney should be a highly experienced attorney, a proven leader and a person committed to McHenry County. Dan Regna is the only candidate with these credentials. With 21 years’ experience as a prosecutor and private attorney in McHenry County, Dan is a highly respected member of

Wilbrandt for state rep

To the Editor: We have known Dan Wilbrandt for 30 years, and we cannot think of a more honest, hardworking and dedicated person for the office of Illinois state representative.

Dan takes pride in everything he’s done. Nothing he does is half-hearted, and no shortcuts are taken when he sets out to achieve an important goal. Dan regularly is at work more than an hour before the courthouse even opens, because he knows the extra time and work he puts into a case may make all the difference to keep our community safe. Long hours and hard work are things we don’t often think about in conjunction with an elected official these days. We don’t need more politicians who talk big but lack the work ethic or dedication to follow through to make a difference.

That’s why we need Dan Wilbrandt to work hard for us as our next Illinois state representative.

Wilbrandt gets job done

To the Editor: People may disagree over how the state best can spend its money. The left and the right have their own ideas about what to do with taxpayer dollars, but if there is one thing everyone can agree government should spend money on, it’s infrastructure. Dan Wilbrandt has seen firsthand what it takes to keep a community clean, safe, and functioning through his service to the Public Works Department. When you’re delivering basic services such as fixing potholes, cleaning streets and repairing public structures, you just need to get the job done. That’s the kind of mentality

Katelynn Ambrosini West Dundee

Draffkorn a complete candidate

To the Editor: Re-elect District 4 candidate Sue Draffkorn. Sue is a tireless professional in moving our county forward.

Sue is chairwoman of the Law and Justice Committee. Under her leadership, the sheriff’s staff of corrections officers has been reduced as prison population has dropped. Also, as vice chairwoman of the Human Resources Committee, she instituted a self-funded insurance plan that saves millions of dollars of health insurance expenses.

A proponent of keeping the county tax levy flat, taxpayers now enjoy a $23 million property tax reduction. The flat levy serves as a model for school districts, townships and government offices to emulate.

Divisive issues before the County Board have not been avoided. The SSA proposal for Wonder Lake Dredging, although unsuccessful, is a prime example. Sue did not support placing township consolidation issues on the ballot as projected tax savings were not demonstrated.

Your vote will continue her balanced leadership.

Larry Reinhard Wonder Lake

Draffkorn listens

She is a good listener and actively responds to the concerns of the community. She is fiscally responsible and has experience working with the County Board.

Her efforts while serving on several board committees has saved the taxpayers millions of dollars. Please vote for Sue’s re-election March 15.

Dennis Gallo Wonder Lake

Get the bums out of office

To the Editor: It seems the opponents of government consolidation are the people who fear losing their lucrative government jobs. They tell us we will suffer reduced services, even though we have paid more. If so, that means it takes more than twice as much government to provide those services as every other state. I guess that’s “Illinois efficiency” which is different than real efficiency. Stop voting for status quo politicians so we once again can have a state worth living in.

Get all of the bums out of office and yank their pensions.

Tom Sanders Island Lake

Rickert for County Board

To the Editor: Cherie Rickert is a no-nonsense person who will represent taxpayers well. Her background in the service professions of health and education provide her with experience in helping people. She has brought fairness and organization to the professional work she has done. Cherie also has been a strong servant to the community as a volunteer in local organizations. Let’s bring a voice of high ethical standards to our County Board. We need real people working for us at all levels.

Supporting Cherie is a great start.

Patrick was the assistant states attorney who prosecuted the killer of our beloved family-member, Kurt Milliman, in 2013 and got a guilty verdict.

Patrick was very compassionate when it came to the needs of helping our family and friends as we tried to get through this horrible, heartbreaking pain we were going through.

Patrick helped Kurt’s mother so much. We as a family can’t thank Patrick enough for his strong prosecution, hard work and the love he gave this case.

We strongly endorse Patrick Kenneally for state’s attorney because we know how important it is to have someone as competent and experienced as Patrick in office to help the next family who needs him.

County home sales increase in January; median price falls

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO

sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com

CRYSTAL LAKE – Home sales throughout McHenry County in January increased 28.5 percent from the same time a year ago, while median prices decreased slightly and home inventories fell 15.1 percent in that span.

The local housing trends for the first month of 2016 counter statewide increases in home sales and median prices, even as inventory levels dropped throughout Illinois, according to figures released Tuesday from the Illinois Association of Realtors.

In the county, home buyers closed on 293 sales in January 2016, a 28.5 percent increase from the 228 sales completed in January 2015, association fig-

ures show. Median price in the county edged lowered, going from $169,450 in January 2015 to $166,368 last month.

Statewide, home sales totaled 8,247 last month, a 3 percent increase from January 2015. Median price throughout Illinois increased 9.3 percent to $164,000 in that span, according to the association.

Reduced inventories throughout Illinois favor home sellers, association President Mike Drews said in statement, leading to a strong start for the statewide housing market in 2016.

“Sellers are getting very good overall prices due to diminished inventories,” Drews said. “The strong consumer demand, which was evident throughout 2015, seems to be holding firm as we start off

2016.”

The number of homes available for sale in McHenry County dropped 15.1 percent from January 2015 to 1,765 total homes last month. Throughout Illinois, year-over-year inventory levels declined 12.6 percent to 55,447 total homes for sale last month.

In the association’s nine-county Chicago area, which includes McHenry County, year-over-year inventory fell 15.6 percent to 33,584 homes for sale.

Home sales throughout the region increased 4.8 percent from January 2015 to 6,018 total. Median price also increased 9.1 percent to $191,000 in that span, according to the association.

Overall, 35 of the 102 counties in Illinois reported sales

gains last month from figures reported in January 2015, and 55 counties showed yearover-year increases in median price.

Going forward into 2016, some analysts have warned that sluggish job growth throughout Illinois and the ongoing dysfunction in Springfield could reverberate negatively to the housing market.

“With the continuing budget impasse in Springfield, concerns about job retention are likely to dampen housing demand,” said Geoffrey J.D. Hewings, director of the Regional Economics Applications Laboratory at the University of Illinois. “The first quarter of 2016 should provide a key to the impact of the state’s economy on the housing market.”

FINANCE Paula Dorion-Gray in the year they receive it.

Depending on the amount of the inheritance, this could be substantial.

The second option is to take the funds over a period of five years and pay tax on the amount they withdraw while depleting the account within five years.

The third option is the “stretch” IRA. This option requires the beneficiary to take a distribution from the account annually based on their life expectancy. The younger the beneficiary, the smaller amount they will be required to withdraw.

A stretch IRA is not a special type of IRA under the Internal Revenue Code. It’s just a traditional IRA with language in governing documents that give the beneficiary and backup beneficiaries the option to take distributions from an inherited IRA over the beneficiary’s

lifetime. The language also generally allows successor beneficiaries to be named, providing for the continued tax-deferred growth of the IRA over what could be more than one generation.

Since most IRA providers do not include the necessary language in their custodial or trust documents to designate the stretch IRA as your option of choice, it becomes important that you, as IRA owners, have a discussion with your beneficiaries to explain the options they have available to them upon your death.

If you do not feel comfortable with having this discussion, you should ask your financial adviser to host this meeting and be available to entertain any questions that you may not be able to answer.

This does not require you to share with your children/ beneficiaries the amount they will inherit. You could, however, save them a significant amount of money over the years by suggesting that they take their IRA inheritance over their life expectancy.

There are many complexities to designating beneficiaries of your IRA. I recommend you consult with a financial adviser to determine the most effective option for you.

The term stretch IRA has become a popular way to refer to an individual retirement account with provisions that make it easier to “stretch out” the time funds can stay in the IRA after the owner’s death.

A spouse has the benefit of maintaining the IRA without this provision.

Earnings in an IRA grow tax deferred. Over time, this tax-deferred growth can help individuals accumulate significant funds within their IRAs. For individuals fortunate enough to have adequate funds to support themselves in retirement without the need to tap into their IRAs, they may prioritize continuing this tax-deferred growth for as long as possible. These individuals may want their heirs to benefit – to the greatest extent possible – from this tax-deferred growth benefit.

When your heirs inherit your IRA, they have three options. They can take the funds in a lump sum. If they do so, they will be required to include 100 percent of this inheritance as income

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2016

Filmmaker Spike Lee is endorsing Bernie Sanders for president in a South Carolina radio ad.

Arguing, in Sanders’ words, that the “system is rigged,” Lee praises Sanders for not taking money from corporations in the ad. And in a reference to one of his early films, Lee says that once in the White House, Sanders “will do the right thing.”

Lee also noted the Vermont senator participated in the march on Washington and protested segregation in Chicago public schools. A writer, director and actor, Lee’s films include “Do the Right Thing” and “Malcom X.” His recent movie “Chi-Raq” is about gun violence in Chicago.

Lawyer: Cosby using courts to bully accuser, witnesses

Mayim Bialik poses Jan. 6 in the media room after winning favorite network TV comedy for “The Big Bang Theory” at the People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles.

Athletes, actress set to judge $1 million tech TV contest LOS ANGELES – Two basketball stars and a brainy sitcom actress will be among the judges for TBS’ tech-competition series, “America’s Greatest Makers.”

The cable channel said Tuesday that Shaquille O’Neal, Kenny Smith and Mayim Bialik will help decide the winner of the contest and its $1 million top prize.

Executive producer Mark Burnett said the show will debut close to college basketball’s March Madness, with some games carried by TBS, so including O’Neal and Smith was a good fit. Bialik, who stars on “The Big Bang Theory,” holds a doctorate in neuroscience.

The competitors, both groups and individuals, have come up with “amazing and cool” tech ideas, Burnett said. They range from a toothbrush equipped with a video game to encourage kids to use it – to a drone with the possibility of being controlled by thought.

Competitors that survive the first round will fine-tune their products through weekly challenges to be judged by Intel CEO Brian Krzanich; financial expert Carol Roth; Kevin Pereira, co-host of truTV’s “Hack My Life;” and one of the celebrity judges.

Burnett, whose credits include “Survivor” and “Shark Tank,” said the male and female contestants range in age from 15 to 59 and are ethnically diverse.

“America’s Greatest Makers,” starting April 5, is described by TBS as part of chip-maker Intel’s initiative to foster innovation in the areas of wearable technology and smart-connected consumer electronics.

PHILADELPHIA – Bill Cosby is using secret court filings to try to bully and intimidate the accuser and other witnesses in his criminal sex-assault case, the woman’s lawyers charged in a new court filing. Cosby filed a sealed lawsuit this month against accuser Andrea Constand the day before a key pretrial hearing in the criminal case. He said the Canadian massage therapist had violated the settlement of their confidential 2005 civil suit when she talked to police, who reopened the criminal case last year.

Cosby, 78, demanded that Constand repay the settlement money along with interest and damages. The amount of the 2006 settlement remains private.

The comedian and actor also sued Constand’s mother and lawyers, who were likewise bound by the confidential settlement.

The Feb. 1 suit was filed a day before lawyers Dolores Troiani and Bebe Kivitz testified against Cosby in his bid to have the criminal charges thrown out.

“By repeated filings ‘under seal,’ Cosby has created a shadow court system, in which he is free to make any inconsistent and opposing allegations he chooses without the deterrent of public scrutiny,” Troiani wrote in a response filed late Monday to the lawsuit.

She asked a federal judge to void the confidentiality clause in the civil settlement because, she said, Cosby was abusing it.

Celine Dion returns to Vegas Strip residency

LAS VEGAS – Singer Celine Dion is returning to the stage Tuesday on the Las Vegas Strip, a month after the death of her husband and manager.

Dion had canceled January dates for her “Celine” show performances at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace after the death of Rene Angelil. He died Jan. 14 at the age of 73 after a long battle with throat cancer in the suburban Las Vegas home he shared with Dion and their three children.

Filmmakers seek to re-create Boston Marathon shootout

WATERTOWN, Mass. – Producers of a Mark Wahlberg movie about the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing want to re-create the police shootout with the Tsarnaev brothers in the Watertown neighborhood where it happened.

Representatives for “Patriots Day” sent fliers to residents of Laurel Street this month asking for their cooperation in obtaining permission to film on their street.

The flier says the project would include a week of preparation in April and a week of nighttime filming in May that could include loud noises like simulated gunfire. Watertown Assistant Town Manager Steve Magoon confirmed the producers are seeking permission from the town. The request was first reported by Watertown News.

LOS ANGELES – As tense crowds await a grand jury’s decision in a case of possible police brutality, a child watching TV news coverage asks his parents a simple but loaded question.

“Why are these people so mad?” the African-American boy queries in Wednesday’s episode of “black-ish,” prompting the TV family’s debate over how much to tell children about how harsh the world may or may not be.

The ABC comedy began its second season with a deft look at the increasingly casual use of the N-word, so it’s unsurprising it would take on the even-thornier subject of police treatment of blacks through a fictional case in Los Angeles in which a black man was hit repeatedly with a Taser by officers.

But Kenya Barris, the show’s creator and executive producer, said his goal was to prompt viewer conversations about how parents respond to the deluge of worrying information children face in these hyper-connected times.

The episode, which airs at 8:30 p.m., “had less to do with police brutality and more to do with talking to your kids about the world they’re living in and

Johnson (Tracee Ellis Ross, Anthony Anderson) and others in the family are blunt in their opinions about police treatment of blacks. The result is funny, provocative and unsettling.

“The police are damn thugs,” says Dre’s father, Pops (Laurence Fishburne).

“Not all police,” Rainbow says.

“Yeah, only 92 percent. The other 8 percent are advisers on ‘Law & Order’ episodes,” Dre snaps back.

The point is that that all individuals, black or otherwise, have their own perspective, Barris said, and that was key to “black-ish” from the start.

It’s common for minority characters to be presented with a “monolithic vocal tone,” he said. “We built the series to show we are really multilayered as people, not just black people but in general as a community of Americans.”

The series, of course, also was designed to draw laughs. Barris recognizes that this week’s episode may summon memories of those “very special” sitcom half-hours that ventured into deep waters, such as 1977’s “All in the Family” episode about the attempted rape of gentle housewife Edith Bunker.

“I’m very interested and nervous as to the reaction. It’s different from anything I’ve written before,” Barris said.

Spare parts for flawed hearts

Doctors, scientists optimistic 3-D printers are future of cardiac medicine

By EMILY SOHN

The Washington Post In the cardiac operating room of the future, a surgeon may repair your damaged heart with personalized parts made to fit your precise anatomy – bypassing donor lists and immune-suppressing drugs.

It sounds far-fetched, but in some ways this future already is here.

Doctors use 3-D-printed models of organs and tumors regularly to educate patients and plan surgeries. Some printed body parts even have made their way into human bodies as dental implants, prosthetics, skull and facial reconstructions and more. Researchers also are working to print out cells, blood vessels and other living tissues, and experimental studies have created, among other parts, knee cartilage, bones and an artificial ear.

As costs decrease and discoveries accelerate, experts predict 3-D printers will become routine tools for heart care, too. Optimistic scientists envision customized patches or even full-fledged beating hearts, ready to be implanted, an exact fit for the patient’s body.

“I really think the 3-D jet printer is transformative,” said Daniel Jones, chief of minimally invasive surgical services at Harvard Medical School in Boston. “It’s going to change the way doctors talk to patients, how they plan surgeries and how they do surgeries.

The sky is the limit in terms of applications.”

Around since the 1980s and now available in basic versions for just hundreds of dollars at office supply stores, 3-D printers work by creating layers of material in skinny slices that stack up to create a three-dimensional shape. The technology has been used to manufacture eyeglasses, car parts, jewelry and more.

Medical applications also are wide-ranging. All it takes is an MRI or CT scan or other image to create a three-dimensional blueprint for creating objects of any shape. Colors can be altered to make visualizing easier. Depending on the design and complexity of the machine, objects can be made with a variety of materials, including plastics, metal and rubber.

In cardiology, 3-D models are, for now, proving most useful as educational tools. Like fingerprints, every person’s heart is unique, and every

Researchers are developing ways to create soft, living structures such as arteries using 3-D printers. Experts predict 3-D printers will become routine tools for heart care.

heart problem plays out in its own way, said Paul Iaizzo, associate director of the Institute for Engineering in Medicine at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. With help from detailed replicas, surgeons can plan more accurately and reduce procedure times.

In the past year, Iaizzo said, his team has printed models of 17 children’s hearts with congenital deformations that required surgical repair.

A young child’s heart can be as small as a walnut, so the team prints each heart four or five times larger than normal. The surgeons then can study the models, show parents what needs to be done and discuss risks. They usually print out an extra heart for patients to take home.

“One of the most critical parts is discussing the whole thing with the family,” Iaizzo said. “It’s powerful and comforting for parents to really understand what the problem is.”

The medical device industry makes frequent use of 3-D models to design and test new products, Iaizzo added.

His team also has printed hearts for medical students, surgical residents and physicians to study and even to use in artistic exercises.

“Taking time to put a paintbrush in every crevice is really valuable,” he said. “It puts that anatomy in the brain in a three-dimensional way that never could have been done another way.”

The technology of 3-D printing is so new rigorous studies have not yet assessed how using it affects outcomes.

But anecdotal evidence is powerful.

When Harvard Medical School cardiac anesthesiologist and echocardiographer Feroze Mahmood began printing full-size replicas of patients’ damaged mitral valves, he gained a new appreciation for the complexity of the structure, particularly a Pringles-shaped region called the annulus that was impossible to visualize with two-dimensional images. Insights gained from handling printed valves have helped him and colleagues understand why a common treatment works for some patients but not others. He now has used the technology hundreds of times.

“For most people, it is an ‘aha’ moment,” said Mahmood, who is researching the possibility of printing patient-specific valve parts that would be safe to use in surgeries. “What I foresee is that ... we will be 3-D print-

ing everything we operate on before surgery. Instruments, grafts and materials will all be customized and will be printed on-site.”

Someday, surgeons even may be able to print customized patches for repairing hearts damaged by heart attacks, said Adam Feinberg, a biomedical engineer at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. His team is working both to grow heart tissue in petri dishes and to use 3-D printers to create soft, living structures by embedding cells inside gels that can be laid down in precise layers.

Feinberg’s team uses consumer-level printers, which cost about $1,000 each, far less than commercial versions, priced at $100,000 or more.

To encourage other researchers to accelerate advances, the Carnegie Mellon group also is using open-source hardware and software.

“The challenge is to print something high-quality that re-creates the function of real human heart muscle,” he said. “It’s easy to make something that doesn’t work well.”

Multiple teams of researchers are working on this kind of bioprinting task, which Feinberg said could help as many as 100,000 people a year who need heart transplants but face long waiting lists. He imagines 3-D-printed living heart tissue becoming available in as little as 10 years, although he admits he could be a decade off.

“It’s definitely science-fiction now,” he said. “But at least we’re getting to the point where it’s conceivable that it could happen.”

Apparel

Let’s face it: Cold weather usually isn’t a problem that an extra layer or two can’t fix. The one closest to the body should be a material that can wick away sweat, ideally merino wool, and the outermost one should be able to provide some wind-proofing.

Actually, the single most important thing simply might be gloves.

I’m half-serious about starting a blog consisting of photos of people riding around wearing a heavy coat and hat, indicating an awareness that it’s cold out, but with bare hands. Folks, the single best way to ensure an unhappy winter ride is to expose the extremities that jut out the farthest and absorb all of the onrushing wind.

Daniel Hoagland, programs director for the Washington Area Bicyclist Association, also suggested waterproof shoe covers. That’s a particularly good idea for those who prefer to wear their work shoes while biking, as the covers not only keep your feet from getting wet – talk about something that can turn a ride into a

miserable slog – but provide warmth as well.

For Stephen Regenold, a Minneapolis resident who is editor and founder of Gearjunkie.com, what’s on top is most important.

“If I have a warm head,” he said, “the rest of my body sort of follows suit.”

Regenold recommended a versatile garment from a company called Buff, one that can wrap around the head and neck in different ways.

Illumination

This is important at all times of the year – after all, lights or reflectors are mandatory for nighttime riders nearly everywhere in the United States – but being extra visible is particularly important in the winter, when there is less daylight.

Regenold pointed out drivers may be more surprised to find cyclists on the road in cold months.

“You need to dress in bright colors, wear reflective stuff, get one or two blinking lights on you at all times,” he said.

It’s worth noting batteries for lights can drain faster in low temperatures.

Riding style: The fact drivers

might not be expecting to see cyclists also means, even if roads are dry, a cautious approach is important.

“It’s darker, there’s snow on their windshields,” Regenold said. “You’ve got to be a lot more careful and more defensive in the wintertime.”

He also suggested riders who normally take a busy road to work go just a bit out of the way if a dedicated bike path is available.

Hoagland recommended, if conditions are wet, cyclists should “feather” their brakes before they need to use them, meaning lightly tap the brakes to shed any extra water.

Bicycle

Any kind of bike, even road bikes with skinny tires, can be used, as long as riders are cautious. Wider tires do work better in poor conditions, and studded tires are recommended for snow.

Moisture, salt and just general “gunk,” as Regenold put it, can wreak havoc on exposed cables, gears and brakes, but most bikes don’t have those parts built inside their hubs or frames the way Capital Bikeshare’s do.

Cleaning one’s bike after a ride is particularly important this time of year.

Folks who ride a bike to work will tell you there’s simply no better way to commute. It’s often the fastest way to get to work, it offers a wide array of route options and, unlike driving or taking public transportation, doing it regularly is actually good for you.

But the numbers from Capital Bikeshare tell a stark, though not shocking, story: People ride to work much less often in the winter. Even as peak usage in warm months has climbed from about 140,000 in 2011 to more than 360,000 last year, winter usage has remained around 110,000.

Of course, those numbers don’t reflect people who own their own bikes and who might be considered more dedicated to cycling and likely to ride when the weather gets cold. However, the most recent annual report by Strava, a popular fitness app for cyclists and runners, also showed bike rides classified as “commuting” declined 63.3 percent in the winter.

And that’s a shame. Using exercise to commute to work in chilly weather doesn’t need to be met with a cold shoulder. There are ways of making cycling to work safe and comfortable

enough to become regular winter habits, leading to increased fitness and, best of all, the satisfaction of knowing you’re kind of awesome.

‘Talk therapy’ helps ease stress Dear Dr. K: In your column you’ve mentioned something called cognitive restructuring. Can you explain this in more detail?

Dear Reader: Cognitive restructuring is one part of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a type of “talk therapy” that attempts to correct ingrained patterns of negative thoughts and behaviors.

CBT is the leading therapy for anxiety.

It also is used to treat stress, depression, eating disorders and many other problems.

Cognitive restructuring can help you change the way you think. That, in turn, can help change the way you feel.

To better understand how it works, try to remember your thoughts the last time you were late for work. Perhaps your first thought was simply “The train is late.”

But then that quickly transformed into “I’ll be late to work. I won’t make it to my meeting on time. My job is in jeopardy.”

This is an example of negative automatic thinking. Scenarios like this can activate the stress response almost as easily as a growling Doberman pinscher starting to run toward you.

Our negative thoughts often are riddled with irrational distortions. For example, you might have an “all or nothing” attitude. If you don’t perform flawlessly, you consider yourself a complete failure.

Another example is overgeneralization. If you do this, you take one negative event – such as rude service at a restaurant – as part of an endless pattern of dismaying circumstances and defeat.

Perhaps you exaggerate potential problems or mistakes until they take on the proportions of a catastrophe. Or you jump to conclusions: an observation your

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff friend seems upset turns into the certainty she is mad at you.

For a person who is distressed by distortions and negative thoughts, cognitive restructuring might involve asking yourself: • Is this thought or belief true?

• Did I jump to a conclusion?

• What evidence do I actually have?

• What’s the worst that could happen?

• How else can I think about this?

Here’s an example of how it might work: If you get stuck in traffic on the way to work, first take a few deep breaths to reduce physical tension and step back from the stressor before you react. Then, reflect: “It’s just a traffic jam. I can handle this. It’s not worth getting this upset.”

Don’t assume you’ll be fired. Tell yourself, “I’ll just be a few minutes late. I’m doing the best I can. I can handle this.”

It might seem simplistic; it might sound too good to be true. And it doesn’t happen just like that: It’s not an instant cure. It takes work, focus, concentration and a talented therapist. And it takes time.

But the value of cognitive behavioral therapy, including cognitive restructuring, has been shown in scientific studies.

It is the most important new type of talk therapy I’ve seen in my professional career.

cause you wanted emotional stability, and you had built a life together. Obviously, that isn’t enough for you, or you wouldn’t be cheating with Wade. If what you really want is a marriage filled with passion, tumult and the possibility of infidelity, by all means choose your former boss. That way, you won’t be bored, and Victor will then be free to find a loving, faithful wife who appreciates what he has to offer.

first remark go without speaking up. The right way to respond to the person’s racist comment would have been to say it offended you and you would prefer not to hear that kind of language from him again. Physical violence is not the correct way to get a point across.

If you must associate with this person, apologize for flying off the handle. Otherwise, avoid him.

Dear Abby: I’m in love with two men. My husband, “Victor,” and I have been together for nine years and were married last year.

The other man in my life, “Wade,” was my boss, and we’ve been seeing each other for two years.

They are polar opposites, and make me happy in different ways. I was engaged and planning my wedding when Wade and I started our relationship. I chose to marry Victor for emotional stability and because we had built a life together. I can’t imagine a life without him.

At the same time, I can’t imagine not being with Wade.

If I stop seeing Wade, I know I won’t be happy and he’ll always be on my mind. I always will wonder about what could have been. If I divorce my husband, I’ll break his heart, and it won’t be easy.

Last week, Wade demanded I decide between him and my husband. He wants an exclusive relationship with me. I’m in a panic because I can’t decide, but I know I will lose Wade if I don’t do it soon. I need advice because I don’t know which way to go. – Stuck At

You DO NOT Have to Suffer From Knee Pain Any Longer!

KNEE PAIN?

NEW FDA APPROVED TREATMENT PROVEN TO RELIEVE KNEE PAIN

Over 100 million Americans suffer from knee and joint pain? This pain accounts for 25 percent of all visits to primary care physicians and half of all anti-inflammatory drug prescriptions.Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you could get rid of your knee pain? Where would you go, what would you do?

What would you give for a day, a week or a lifetime of pain-free mobility? We are pleased to announce that knee pain sufferers don’t have to wait any longer to get the most advanced, non-surgical, FDA approved treatment. If you suffer from any degree of knee pain, we invite you to regain control of your life by visiting Wellness Institute of Illinois, a state-of-the-art medical facility.

WHAT IS OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA)?

Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis. In osteoarthritis, the surface layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows the bones under the cartilage to rub together, resulting in pain, swelling and loss of motion of the joint. Although in some people it progresses quickly, in most individuals joint damage develops gradually over years.

WHAT ELSE IS AVAILABLE TO TREAT KNEE PAIN?

After careful study and several trials, the FDA approved a new treatment aimed at helping those with knee pain. This new treatment is a high-tech answer for all those who think that surgery, dietary supplements and prescription medications are the only option to eliminate knee pain.

HOW DOES THIS TREATMENT WORK?

We use diagnostic ultrasound, allowing the doctor to pinpoint problem areas with extreme accuracy. A viscosupplement is then injected, and the healing process begins. Viscosupplementation bonds with naturally occurring joint fluid to create a lubricating and cushioning layer. It reduces pain, inflammation and swelling of the joint. Patients compare the treatment to getting a shot at the doctor’s office, and report little pain or discomfort.

WHAT IS INJECTED INTO THE KNEE?

Hyaluronic acid is similar to substances that occur naturally in your joint. The outside of the joint (joint capsule) is comprised of a sturdy, fibrous tissue. The lining of the joint capsule contains synovial cells, which secrete a thick, viscous synovial fluid.

Hyaluronic acid contributes to the viscous nature of the joint fluid, nourishes the cartilage, helps eliminate waste products, lubricates the joint and acts as a shock absorber inside the joint.Hyaluronic acid is reduced or lost from those who suffer from osteoarthritis. It is similar to changing the oil in your car.

If your car were to run low on oil, you would have some serious wear and tear on the moving parts.

Huntley leaves no doubt Fast start puts South in hole; Hononegah awaits in final

“The first two times we played them, we dug ourselves a little bit of a hole early,” said Raethz, whose Raiders swept South and have won 17 straight games heading into Thursday’s sectional final. “I loved the way our kids came out with a purpose tonight and just played really hard on both ends.”

Four Raiders hit 3-pointers in the second quarter, and all five Huntley starters scored while the defense forced eight turnovers and held the Gators (23-10) to 2-of-9 shooting.

About the only thing the Raiders didn’t do well Tuesday was finish. After shooting 24 of 26 from the foul line in a Belvidere North Regional final, the Raiders were 6 of 18 against South.

The Gators took advantage of the rare misses and made a run in the second half by outscoring Huntley, 30-19. But the first-half deficit was too much to overcome.

“The first two times we played Huntley, we had a jump on them,” Gators coach Mark Mucha said.

“They came out with intensity and we just stumbled out of the gate a little bit. ... And unfortunately we were playing catch-up.

But I’m proud of the kids for their effort. You go into halftime down [24] points, it’s easy to hang it up then. But we clawed back and made it interesting.”

In the first semifinal, Hononegah (28-3) held DundeeCrown scoreless for the first seven minutes and forced the Chargers into 22 total turnovers in a game that quickly got away from D-C. Hononegah used a full-court press against the Chargers (15-18) and face-guarded senior shooting guard Melissa Barker, the area’s leader in 3s, to thwart D-C on offense.

“We knew exactly what they were going to do,” Chargers coach Sarah Miller said. “I just felt like we played with fear. We talked about getting the nerves and the fear out before we stepped out on the floor. ... I feel like we shied away from the ball. And you can’t do that against them.”

Allison Michalski and Paige Gieseke each scored 10 points to lead the Chargers, and Barker added six points on two 3s.

I think I demonstrated my will and determination on setting my mind to just go to work, walking to practice and motivating myself to do these things.”

Kemp wrestled for the Thunder this winter but likely will forgo track and field this spring and instead get a job.

Wolfgang Kemp continues to reap the benefits from displaying a positive attitude under unfortunate circumstances.

The Woodstock North senior football player and wrestler will be announced Wednesday as the IHSA’s nominee for the National High School Spirit of Sport Award. Each state association member may nominate one student-athlete to the National Federation of State High School Associations.

Kemp and his father, Wilbur, technically are homeless, although they have stayed at the McHenry County’s PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter), about one-half mile west of Woodstock’s Emricson Park, for almost two years.

Almost anyone who learned of Kemp’s story was moved by it. Before his junior year, he walked 51/2 miles each morning to Woodstock North for football workouts, then walked the same distance back home. He wanted, and needed, so badly to be part of the Thunder’s team, and he did not have a car, so Wolfgang walked.

Kemp’s determination inspired people, many of whom offered monetary help to Wolfgang and Wilbur. One family gave them a 1994 Crown Victoria car,

He and Wilbur must leave the PADS facility next month because of rules about time limits for residents.

“That’s pretty cool. I hope he wins it,” North senior lineman Jake Varys said. “He deserves it. He really does.

He’s such a great guy and has such a great work ethic. His attitude about everything is so positive all the time. He’s put in the work. Every day, he’s trying to get better than yesterday, and he’s very passionate.”

Kemp is one of five nominees for Section 4. If he wins that, he will then go up against winners from seven other sections across the nation.

“It’s just the cards he’s been dealt and the willingness to overcome that,” Schroeder said. “There’s been an outpouring from the community that’s been awesome. That’s helped improve his life a great deal. He’s reaping some of the fruits of that determination with people recognizing the courage and things like that.”

Kemp said he plans on moving to Florida after graduation and eventually joining the U.S. Marine Corps. He figures his physical shape from football and wrestling will help him handle basic training.

“It’ll be like practice,” he said.

“That’s OK [if they yell]. I might need it, too.”

4 BOYS BASKETBALL: CRYSTAL LAKE SOUTH 53, WOODSTOCK 48

Gators pick up pace in 2nd half CLS overcomes halftime deficit to beat Streaks

By RYAN ALTMAN

sports@nwherald.com WOODSTOCK – The Crystal Lake South boys basketball team wasn’t necessarily happy about its start in the first half Tuesday night against Woodstock.

After jumping out to an eight-point lead in the first quarter, the result of some open looks near the perimeter, the Blue Streaks locked down defensively.

Four turnovers and 10 Woodstock points later, the Gators found themselves trailing at halftime.

“The first half was a struggle, and we couldn’t get around,” Gators guard Tyler Carlson said. “[Woodstock] was playing aggressive up top.”

Out of the break, however, the Gators

Behind an aggressive offense in the second half, the Gators hit six 3s, shot 50 percent from the field and spoiled the Blue Streaks’ senior night with a 53-48 Fox Valley Conference Crossover thirdplace victory at Woodstock High School.

After the Gators (16-11) shot 3 of 10 in the second quarter, the Blue Streaks battled their way back and tied the score on Dan Shook’s free throw at the 4:25 mark. Guard Vannis Smith (game-high 18 points) then gave the team its first lead on a 3-pointer.

Woodstock led, 21-20, at halftime.

Gators guard Zach Geske said that, offensively, his team just needed to play looser with the ball.

“Once we started moving around, we got a lot of inside-out shots,” Geske said.

Three minutes into the third, down

31-22, the Gators sparked an 11-0 run with 3-pointers from Geske, Carlson and Matt Meyers, forcing a Woodstock timeout.

“We weren’t rotating out,” Blue Streaks coach Al Baker said. “We knew who their shooters were, and we just didn’t do a good job rotating out on them. Once we went man-to-man, we got better. Our zone got tired in the second half.”

But, again, the Blue Streaks (18-7) weren’t done. They answered South’s run with a 5-0 run of their own and were tied at 36 going into the fourth.

Wes Buckner’s (seven points, 11 rebounds) layup gave the Gators a lead on their opening possession of the fourth, and they never gave up the lead again, even with another late 6-2 Blue Streaks run that pulled them within two with two minutes remaining.

Tim Siesennop scored nine points for the Gators.

Shook scored seven for Woodstock.

“It was a well-played game,” Gators coach Matt LePage said. “We made some shots down the stretch and made big stops.”

It was the lowest-scoring game of the season for Marengo (21-7, 11-3 BNC East) and its largest losing margin.

“It’s a process,” Indians guard Zach Knobloch said. “We had an 11-game winning streak, that’s great. But last time we lost a game, we went on this run. You have to learn from every mistake. If you win, you can take away goods and bads. A loss, goods and bads.

It’s not the end of the world, the sun comes up tomorrow as coach [Nate] Wright always says.”

The Indians will try to take some lessons from the loss into their Class 3A Woodstock Regional opener Tuesday.

They hope to have point guard Michael Volkening, who left with a knee injury in the second quarter, back by then.

Even before Michael Volkening was hurt, Burlington (25-3, 13-1) had a firm grasp on the game. The Rockets’ defense had the Indians lacking any kind of offensive rhythm for most of the game.

“Twenty-three (turnovers)? It felt like 30,” Marengo coach Nate Wright said. “They doubled on us and we weren’t meeting our passes. If we

could have met a couple passes there, Fitzgerald could have gotten in foul trouble because he was flying up so hard.”

Fitzgerald picked off several passes in the press, and the Rockets turned them into transition baskets. Marengo shot 30 percent from the field.

“We needed to exceed their intensity and I think we did a good job of that,” said Fitzgerald, a 6-foot-6 senior. “That was one of our best games of the season, and it’s great to have right before the postseason. Just get that feeling of winning again and start another streak.”

Burlington is the No. 1 seed in the Class 3A Glenbard South Regional next week.

Knobloch was honored before the game as Marengo’s career scoring leader, and his 19 points Tuesday puts him at 1,800 for his career. He hit three more 3-pointers and has 121 for the season.

Marengo will finish second in the BNC East for the second straight season.

“They sped us up with their defense,” Knobloch said. “They were trapping, and that caught us by surprise. So you better believe we’ll be working on that in practice.”

in the first period. Suddenly, the Tigers led, 24-0, in less than eight minutes of wrestling.

“It felt great. I like starting it off like that, pin after pin,” Mora said.

Brock Montford (113) and Austin Ernd (132) also earned pins to give the Tigers a 42-8 lead through nine bouts.

With the win in hand, Lehr took the opportunity to rest some starters, such as individual state medalists Lenny (138) and Michael (145) Petersen. The Tigers lost four of the final five classes, only winning a forfeit at 145, which left Lehr frustrated, but the Tigers were happy to be alive and moving on to the final eight.

“I think I can see us in the finals,” Parks said. “We can really give it a run.”

Central has placed second at state twice (2010 and 2011) and finished fourth last year.

All five of their trips to state have come with a loss to Montini, but this year Montini has moved up to Class 3A, and the draw seems to have provided a path to the final.

The Tigers are ranked fourth in Class 2A by illinoismatmen.com and will face No. 22 Sterling in the quarterfinals.

“We keep efficiency points for all of our players, and everyone had negative efficiency points tonight. I’ve never seen that happen,” Paddock said. “Tonight is one of those games you don’t want to remember, but you also can’t forget. We

need to play better.”

McHenry went on some mini-runs after the first quarter, but really struggled to get back in the game. Matt Mohr was able to score eight points in the second quarter to slow down the Knights, but Grayslake North had an answer all game.

“We didn’t play our style of basketball tonight or do what we needed to do,” Mohr said. “You can’t go down 16-0 to start the game against a good team. We felt good coming into this game, but just didn’t play well. We need to give a better effort.”

The combination of Jamal Thomas and Aidan Einloth proved to be too much for the Warriors. Thomas finished with a game-high 24 points while Einloth added 19 points and 13 rebounds.

McHenry was led by Giovanni Calabrese with 11 points, and Mohr and Deshawn Wilson who each scored 10.

“We had won five straight and all we could talk about is win No. 6,” Calabrese said. “You really can’t give up 30 points in the first quarter and have a chance.

We didn’t come to play today.”

WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

New approach, same mentality for Sale

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

GLENDALE, Ariz. – Chris Sale plans to bring a different tack to pitching in 2016 – fewer strikeouts and fewer pitches will be king – but don’t expect the intense, short-tempered left-hander to mellow on the mound.

The emphasis will be on throwing more first-pitch strikes, which means immediate attack mode with every hitter.

And the Sale who went at it with Victor Martinez in Detroit two seasons ago and with Yordano Ventura at U.S. Cellular Field last season will have that familiar reddish hue around the hind quarters.

“Here’s the thing,” Sale said, “when you get adrenalin going and in the heat of the moment, from the outside looking in, it’s a lot easier to say I shouldn’t have done that. But no, I don’t look at either of those and wish I had them back. I was actually telling (former Tigers and new Sox catcher Alex) Avila, ‘The other team isn’t supposed to like me anyway, so what do I care if they don’t like me a little more?’

“Those things don’t bother me. If I had hit five guys in a row for no reason, maybe that’s something you take back.

But being intense and fiery, there is no

To watch Sale pitch is to enjoy beauty and beast all at once. Pitching purists marvel at the artistry of Sale filling the strike zone with three plus pitches. Brass knucklers love the sharp “Let’s go” edge.

Ventura and Sale were in the middle of the Sox’ bench-clearer against the Royals, and Sale went looking for Ventura in the visitors clubhouse afterward. In 2014, Sale gestured toward the outfield stands and made like he was looking through binoculars, believing Martinez had a sign-stealer parked there for him. He also hit Martinez – who has owned Sale during his career – in the shoulder with a pitch.

“Those are the things you learn from,” Sale said. “I was actually talking to my son about this the other day.

Sometimes he gets down on himself when he makes a mistake and thinks he’s going to get in trouble. People are going to make mistakes. That’s how you figure out what’s right or wrong. I was telling him, ‘You’re going to make mistakes, just learn from those.’

“So if I’m trying to pick fights or I’m plunking guys on purpose six or seven times a year, that’s when it’s too much.

But in the heat of the moment, when tempers are high and that stuff happens, I think it’s all right. You need a little of that.”

Sale, who set a club record with 274 strikeouts last year, also sees a need to cut down on pitch counts and likely will

leave the record on the books, placing an even greater emphasis on throwing the first pitch for a strike and getting more outs early in counts. It’s about pitching deeper into games, throwing fewer pitches, being stronger at the end of the season, and prolonging his career.

“There’s no doubt pitchers love punchouts,” Sale said. “But striking out 12 guys over five innings isn’t doing anyone a whole lot of good.

“You don’t want to get too far away from what has made you successful, but 123 pitches over seven innings is a lot to handle over 30 starts. Try to get quicker, more efficient outs instead of five or six pitches per guy.”

Sale sees 10 fewer pitches a game in 30 starts adding to three more games of life in his arm.

“It’s especially important for October aspirations,” he said. “All these things are about finding a formula to get right for the postseason, because that’s what we’re here for.”

Sale talked postseason – he never has pitched in one – on Day 1 of camp last week, and that will be his driving force in 2016. He’s a major reason the Sox have a shot, and he’ll take as many shots as needed to get there.

SPORTS BRIEF ‘Disturbing images’ in video of Jaguars DE Fowler

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The NFL said video of Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Dante Fowler Jr. apparently refereeing a fight between his girlfriend and the mother of his child includes “disturbing images.”

The surveillance tape released

by TMZ shows Fowler and the two women standing outside an elevator and talking. Fowler appears to offer a hand gesture for them to start fighting and then steps back. One of the women kicks off her flip-flops before they exchange punches. Fowler eventually pulls them apart.

8 GIRLS BASKETBALL: CLASS 3A ST. VIATOR SECTIONAL

Johns leads Skyhawks into final Johnsburg tops Resurrection in comeback

By MIKE DeFABO

mdefabo@shawmedia.com ARLINGTON HEIGHTS – Johnsburg girls basketball coach Brad Frey has become accustomed to giving the same halftime speech during the Skyhawks’ first two playoff games this season.

Don’t let them back in the game.

Keep up the intensity. Keep the game out of reach, he’d say during a pair of routs that ended with the Skyhawks winning by a combined 66 points.

On Tuesday, with the Skyhawks trailing by four in a Class 3A St. Viator Sectional semifinal, Frey’s tone changed – and so too did the score.

Sparked by senior forward Jazza Johns’ 11-point third quarter, the Skyhawks stormed back from a four-point halftime deficit to take down Chicago Resurrection, 50-42.

Johnsburg (27-3) advances to the St. Viator Sectional final at 7 p.m. Thursday against the host Lions, who used a comeback of their own to beat Antioch, 58-45.

“They realized they have an allstater in the post,” Frey said. “They gave her the ball and the all-stater played like an all-stater. She got rebounds and did everything she needed to do. When that happens, the rest of the world is pretty simple for the Skyhawks.”

The Skyhawks outscored the Bandits, 14-5, in the third quarter. The only Johnsburg basket not scored

by Johns in the quarter came when Aannah Interrante swished a corner 3 with 6:40 left in the quarter to give the Skyhawks a 25-24 lead. They never trailed again.

“We talked about what we were doing wrong and what we needed to fix,” Johns said. “We came out in the second half and we got on them right away and didn’t give up, because we wanted this game more.”

In addition to scoring 14 points, Johns pulled down 10 rebounds for the double-double. Kayla Stefka grabbed 10 rebounds and scored 10 points for a double-double of her own. Interrante also scored 10 points.

The Skyhawks also got a boost with Stefka playing more minutes.

Serving up cocktails with a cinematic twist for the Oscars

By MICHELLE LOCKE The Associated Press

Silver shakers and the silver screen go back a long time. Think French 75 from “Casablanca” and Agent 007’s dry martinis.

So for those of you planning to drink along at home for the Feb. 28 showing of the Oscars this year, now might be a good time to get your cocktail act together. And Tim Federle, author of “Gone with the Gin,” has a few ideas about that.

From The Moon-Shining – moonshine, ruby red grapefruit juice, rum, that’s right, red rum – to Tequila Sunrise Boulevard (probably best NOT served poolside), the best-selling author has a line-up of cinematically inspired cocktails meant to be shaken, stirred and sipped with tongue planted firmly in cheek.

Bubbly as a Champagne cocktail, “Gone with the Gin” nonetheless has serious underpinnings. Federle worked with talented bartender Cody Goldstein, founder of Muddling Memories, a craft cocktail and bar consulting firm in New York. There also are useful sections on tools, techniques and even some fun food recipes.

“The approach was humorous and, yeah, they’d better taste good, too,” Federle said.

This cinematic cocktail collection follows Federle’s “Tequila Mockingbird,” which featured literary libations. For “Gone with the Gin,” Federle started by making a spreadsheet of the American Film Institute’s Top 100 films. Then, he looked for cocktail-friendly titles.

So “White Christmas” plus white Russian became a drink called White Russian Christmas. Then he and Goldstein looked for ways to tweak the recipes to match the movies. For the White Russian Christmas, the classic recipe – vodka, coffee liqueur and cream – got a seasonal twist of vodka, creme de menthe, coffee liqueur, eggnog and crushed candy cane for a garnish.

(And for those movie buffs for whom this particular drink conjures up only one flick, the book also contains a Big Le-Brewski, a vodka, coffee and cream of coconut concoction in honor of the white Russian loving Dude of “The Big Lebowski.”)

In all, Federle serves up 50 recipes organized by genre (drama, sci-fi, etc.), and each recipe comes with a brief but informative blurb about the movie in question. And if you are a punster, the titles will be a delight. A standout: Muppets Make Manhattans. Some of the cute drink names were arrived at with the help of Federle’s thousands of Twitter followers, who also voted on which proposed title for the book they liked best.

Recipes aren’t just cleverly titled; they also have cunning tie-ins to the films. For example, hibiscus tea in the cocktail Boozy and the Beast echoes the roses of “Beauty and the Beast.” And Citizen Grain, named for the groundbreaking “Citizen Kane,” includes grain alcohol and just a touch of rose water.

No promises that drinking it will help you better get to the bottom of the whole “Rosebud” thing, though.

Goldstein particularly was pleased with Star Wars-themed The Empire Likes Jack, which contains Jack Daniel’s, ice cream and root beer. “It’s basically a root beer float. You’re dropping the light aspect, the vanilla ice cream, into the root beer, which is the dark side.”

Some sections took more time than others. “We had a lot of days sitting and eating take-in and just going over some stuff,” said Goldstein. An honest man, he admitted that was “a really good time.”

Federle, who grew up in San Francisco and Pittsburgh before moving to New York to dance on Broadway as a teenager, writes in multiple genres, including young adult fiction. His current project is co-writing “Tuck Everlasting,” a forthcoming Broadway musical based on the novel by Natalie Babbitt.

Like Goldstein, Federle seems happy in his work.

“Everything that got me sent to the principal’s office as a kid gets me paid now,” he said.

Mini lemon curd cups are easy way to add dessert elegance The Associated Press

There is a time and place for a pint of ice cream and a spoon. Or for a pile of cookies or box of doughnuts. An Oscars viewing party is neither the time nor the place. This party requires desserts with a bit more panache.

Which is why we created these simple lemon curd cups, an elegant dessert solution to the finer finger food fixings you’ll be serving while watching the stars shine on. You start by making a simple lemon curd, which can be prepped up to a couple days ahead. Then just fill purchased mini phyllo cups with raspberry jam and the curd and top each with fresh berries. Done.

Lemon Curd Cups

Start to finish: 30 minutes, plus cooling Makes 30 cups 1/3 cup sugar 1 tablespoon cornstarch 2 eggs 1/3 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed will have the best flavor) 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

30 prepared miniature phyllo cups (two 1.9-ounce packages) 5 tablespoons raspberry jam 1½ cups fresh berries of your choice Powdered sugar In a small saucepan, whisk together the sugar and cornstarch. Add the eggs and whisk until completely smooth and no trace of egg whites or yolks remains. Whisk in the lemon juice, then set over medium heat and bring to a simmer, whisking constantly. Once the mixture comes to a thorough simmer, remove from the heat and stir in the butter.

Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until completely cool.

Once the lemon curd is chilled, assemble the cups. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon raspberry jam into the bottom of each cup. Divide the lemon curd between the cups, then top each with fresh berries. Dust each with a bit of powdered sugar just before serving. Best if assembled within 1 to 2 hours of being served.

Trick to healthier Oscars food: white bread

By MELISSA D’ARABIAN

our home, I always have some highquality tuna stashed in my cupboard.

So this week, try my salade nicoise tartlets, then feel free to make these tartlet crusts your own. A fun idea: use coconut oil instead of olive oil and fill with something sweet, such as berries and chopped mint.

The Associated Press

Finger food can be tricky for the healthy eater. Tiny bites that explode with flavor often are loaded with empty calories and little nutrition. If I’m not paying attention at a party, I can easily inhale a day’s worth of calories, just because, well, I’m hungry. And finger food is so, you know, small. So I eat a lot.

But what if we made finger food a little healthier? A slightly more fun version of something I feel good about eating? And that’s what this week’s recipe is – a salad stuffed with protein and veggies, but turned portable thanks to my little secret for making a better-for-you crispy tart crust.

The trick? White bread. Don’t panic. Of course, normally I go for whole-grain. But compared to a butter- or shortening-filled pie crust, a simple slice of white bread is a great compromise. And it’s for a party.

And did I mention it is holding salad?

White bread squished flat until doughy, then sprayed lightly with olive oil and baked in a muffin tin makes an amazing crust.

Usually, these little tartlet crusts are my party vehicle of choice for

salad, everything from a Chinese chicken salad to a Greek salad with salmon and yogurt dressing. Since we try to eat fish several times a week in

10 slices of white sandwich bread, crusts removed Olive oil cooking spray Kosher salt and ground black pepper 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar 1 tablespoon lemon juice 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme 10 small cherry tomatoes, quartered 1 cup chopped romaine lettuce 1/4 pound thin green beans, steamed to crisp-tender and roughly chopped 5 small new or baby potatoes, cooked and thinly sliced 5-ounce can oil-packed tuna, drained 2 hardboiled eggs, chopped 2 tablespoons chopped marinated olives 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Use a rolling pin to flatten the bread slices until doughy and thin. Spritz both sides of each slice with olive oil cooking spray, then sprinkle light with salt and pepper.

Press each slice into a muffin tin cup. Bake until golden, about 13 minutes. Remove the bread cups from the pan, then set aside to cool on a rack.

Meanwhile, prepare the salad. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mustard, red wine vinegar and lemon juice. Drizzle in the olive oil, whisking into a vinaigrette.

Add the thyme, then season with salt and pepper.

Set aside half of the vinaigrette to use later. Add the tomatoes, lettuce and green beans to the remaining dressing and toss to coat. Once the tartlet crusts are cooled, layer the sliced potatoes on the bottom of each cup. Top the potatoes with the tomato mixture, then the crumbled eggs, tuna, chopped olives and chives. Finish each with a drizzle of dressing on top.

Goat Cheese and Pear Crostini AP photo

Elegant crostini easy award show fare

By KATIE WORKMAN The Associated Press

Crostini sounds simple. Slices of bread that have been brushed with olive oil and toasted, then topped with something that need be no more complex than a sprinkle of salt and a generous rub with a fresh garlic clove. Of course, something more complex is nice, too. I’m talking to you, tomato, Parmesan and anchovy.

Let’s start with the bread. Baguettes are the way to go. If your baguette is thin, it’s best to slice it on a slight diagonal. This gives you more surface area to play with. And mess around with the time that you toast those slices. If you like your crostini crisp, toast them a bit longer. Want them with a bit of chewy give in the middle? Ease off the toasting time.

The toasts also are lovely grilled over live fire when the weather allows.

Next up, the toppings. My crostini feature a base of herby honey butter, barely ripe pears, a bit of tangy goat cheese and a few nuggets of crispy bacon. You can use whatever pears you like. There are lots of varieties to choose from (Bosc, Barlett and Anjou, to name a few). And using a couple of different kinds of pears makes for a very attractive platter.

While these are very simple to make, they give off more than a slight air of elegance. Passing them to start off an awards party while someone pours some sparkling wine won’t actually transport you to the red carpet, but wouldn’t you rather be home eating crostini and sipping bubbly anyway? Yeah, me, too.

Goat Cheese and Pear Crostini Start to finish: 30 minutes Makes about 30 crostini

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature (very soft) 1/4 cup honey 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme (or 1/3 teaspoon dried) 1 long baguette, sliced into 1/3- to 1/2-inch-thick slices (about 30) 2 ripe pears, quartered, cored and thinly sliced lengthwise 1/2 cup crumbled fresh goat cheese 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

Don’t even think about serving that old classic “party mix” at your Oscars party. This isn’t an 8-year-old’s birthday party. This is red carpet material, even if it’s in your living room.

So it’s time to class up your party mix act. And with this recipe for spiced bacon pecans, you’ll have no trouble. We start with bacon because, well, all good things start with bacon.

Once the bacon is nice and crispy, all you have to do is toss in some pecans and a whole mess of seasonings. A bit of brown sugar ties it all together.

Not a fan of pecans? Peanuts, cashews or walnuts would be just as delicious.

Spiced Bacon Pecans Start to finish: 15 minutes Makes 2 1/2 cups

4 strips bacon, diced 2 cups pecan halves

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon cayenne 1/2 teaspoon flaked salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 3 tablespoons brown sugar Line a rimmed baking sheet with kitchen parchment.

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until almost crispy. Add the pecans and toss to coat thoroughly, then cook, stirring frequently, until evenly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon, cayenne, salt, pepper and brown sugar. Toss with the bacon and pecans and cook for another minute. Spread out on the prepared baking sheet and allow to cool fully. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with kitchen parchment or foil.

In a small bowl, mix together the butter, honey, salt and thyme. Spread a bit of the butter mixture over each slice of baguette, then arrange them on the prepared baking sheet. It’s fine if they touch, but they should not overlap. Use 2 baking sheets if needed. Bake for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are lightly browned. Remember that they will harden as they cool, so take them out before they get too crisp.

Top each toast with 1 or 2 slices of pear, then a bit of goat cheese and a sprinkle of crumbled bacon. Serve hot or room temperature.

Puff pastry hors d’oeuvres for the home cook

By SARA MOULTON The Associated Press

So you’ve decided to host an Oscars party this year, but you aren’t sure what to serve. Because obviously you want something extra fancy, something that will allow you to shine nearly as brightly as those folks on the red carpet.

My advice is to serve up a slate of hors d’oeuvres wrapped in puff pastry, the super-elegant dough perfected by – who else? – the French. It’s not exactly a breeze to produce. So here’s a simpler version, known variously as rough puff pastry, quick puff pastry, or blitz puff pastry. It’s actually not much quicker than full blown puff pastry, but it certainly is much easier to prepare. This recipe yields about a pound of dough, enough to produce several dozen hors d’oeuvres. It is followed by some suggestions for fillings for those hors d’oeuvres.

Rough Puff Pastry

Start to finish: 4 hours (30 minutes active) Makes about 1 pound puff pastry 2 cups (8½ ounces) all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon table salt

12 tablespoons cold butter, cut into 1-inch pieces Ice water In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Add the butter and working quickly with your hands, break up the butter until it is in small (about 1/2- to 3/4 -inch) chunks. Add 1/2 cup ice water and stir the mixture just until the

Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Roll 4 ounces (a quarter) of the dough on a lightly floured counter into an 8-inch square. Chill for 15 to 20 minutes before trimming the edges and cutting the square into nine 3-inch squares. Ease the squares into a mini muffin tin, letting the edges flop over the top of each cup, being careful not to stretch the dough. Brush the flopped over edges lightly with an egg wash made by beating 1 large egg with 1 teaspoon water. Bake the cups, empty, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown. Meanwhile, soak 6 ounces pitted and chopped prunes in warm port wine for 20 minutes, then drain. Combine the prunes with equal parts crumbled Gorgonzola cheese and crumbled cooked bacon. Spoon some of the mixture into each cup, then serve.

water is incorporated. Squeeze the dough to see if it holds together. If it does not, add more ice water, a tablespoon at a time, just until the dough holds together when squeezed.

Quickly gather all of the dough together, dump it on the counter (it will look like a shaggy mess) and shape it into a rough rectangle. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for 20 minutes.

Elegant Pigs in a Blanket

Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Roll out 4 ounces (a quarter) of the dough on a lightly floured counter into an 8-inch square. Chill for 15 to 20 minutes before trimming the edges.

Cut the dough into 12 long triangles, then brush one side of the triangles liberally with Dijon mustard, avoiding the tip. Place a cocktail hot dog at the wide end of each triangle. Brush the tip with an egg wash made by beating 1 large egg with 1 teaspoon water. Roll up the triangle to enclose the hot dog. Brush the outside of the hot dog packages with the egg wash and sprinkle with caraway seeds. Chill for 15 minutes before baking. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake on the oven’s middle shelf for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Transfer the square to a baking sheet lined with kitchen parchment. Prick the dough all over with a fork, then cover with another sheet of parchment. Place a second baking sheet, the same size as the first one, over the dough. Bake on the oven’s middle shelf for 15 minutes. Remove the top baking sheet and parchment, then bake for another 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove the pastry from the oven and let cool. Trim the square so it is even and cut it into 12 squares. For the filling: In a medium bowl, mix together 4 ounces chopped smoked salmon and 4 ounces of sour cream or creme fraiche. Stir in chopped, drained capers, lemon juice, minced shallots or scallions, a little horseradish or Dijon mustard, and salt and pepper, all to taste. Top a square with 1 teaspoon of the smoked salmon mixture (recipe below), then set a second square over that. Top the second square with another teaspoon of the mixture, then a third square of pastry. Finish the stack with a dab of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped fresh chives.

Lightly dust the counter with flour. Unwrap the chilled dough and set it on the counter.

Lightly dust the top of the dough and the rolling pin with a bit of flour. Roll the dough into a 6-by-10-inch rectangle. Square off the edges by trimming them as needed. Starting with the short ends at the top and the bottom, fold the top third down to the center and the bottom third up to cover the first fold, like a business letter. Chill for 30 minutes.

Set the dough on a lightly floured counter, placing it so a short side is facing you. Roll out the dough as before, then fold again in the same manner. Chill for 30 minutes. Repeat this process two more times for a total of 4 roll and chill cycles.

Wrap well and chill for at least 1 hour before making the hors d’oeuvres. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 4 equal pieces and proceed with the recipe suggestions below, working with one piece of dough at a time (keeping the other pieces chilled), or wrap the dough in plastic wrap and foil and freeze it until ready to use.
