8 selected for jury at Oliver trial

HAROLD RAMIS REMEMBERED

‘Groundhog Day’ director dead at 69

Man accused of raping 8 women he met online

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Jury selection for the Charles Oliver trial will carry into a second day after attorneys and the judge dismissed more potential jurors than they selected.

Oliver, 45, is accused in eight separate cases of raping women who responded to online ads for sex. Many of the alleged victims were prostitutes.

Attorneys on Monday chose eight jurors – four men and four women – before eventually exhausting the pool.

Twelve jurors are needed plus Charles Oliver two alternates.

Assistant State’s Attorney Sharyl Eisenstein said prosecutors likely will introduce sexually explicit evidence – including video of the alleged attacks. She asked potential jurors if they would have a problem viewing and discussing such evidence.

Ex-Woodstock mayor: Ramis was ‘like a brother’ On the Web

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – During the three and a half months it took to film “Groundhog Day” in Woodstock, then-Mayor Jim Shoemaker found a friend in director Harold Ramis.

“He was like a brother,” Shoemaker said. “I had lunch with him more than I had with my wife.”

Ramis died early Monday morning of complications from an autoimmune inflammatory disease. He was 69.

Shoemaker interacted with Ramis on a daily basis when the movie was being made in the early 1990s.

The two would often chat outside Shoemaker’s Woodstock Square real estate office, which was also used during a scene in the film, he said.

“He always had time to talk to you,” Shoemaker said. “He worked very well with the city. He was very professional. Very polite. If he wanted to do something, he would ask. He wouldn’t just tell you what he wanted to do.”

When scouting a location for a film, someone mentioned the possibility of using Woodstock to Ramis.

Your opinion When he drove into town he fell in love with the area, Shoemaker recalled.

“When he approached the Square, he said to whoever he was with, ‘This is the place,’” Shoemaker said.

Ramis wrote a letter to the people of Woodstock after filming wrapped up and thanked them for their generosity.

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Dillard losing own district to Rauner Illinois state Sen. Kirk Dillard told Chicago radio station WLS last week that Republican county chairmen ought to try and get Bill Brady and/or Dan Rutherford out of the governor’s race so he could have a clear shot at wealthy front-runner Bruce Rauner.

Dillard claims he is building strong momentum with recent endorsements, including the powerful Illinois Education Association.

Two polls taken last week, however, showed that Dillard isn’t even winning his own DuPage County-based state Senate district that he has represented for more than 20 years.

A Capitol Fax/We Ask America poll taken Thursday had Rauner leading in Dillard’s 24th state Senate district with 36 percent. Dillard placed a distant second with 30 percent. Brady polled 10 percent, and Rutherford was at 2 percent. Another 22 percent were undecided. The poll of 614 likely Republican voters had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.95 percent. Twelve percent of the calling universe was cellphones.

I didn’t commission the poll to be a jerk, but because somebody slipped me results of a Strive Strategies tracking poll taken Feb. 18, which had Rauner at 33 percent and Dillard at

8LOTTERY

Views Rich Miller 26 percent in Dillard’s own district.

The margins between the two men are almost exactly the same in both polls, so this is pretty solid evidence that Dillard is, indeed, losing his own Senate district, which he has represented since 1993.

What the heck is going on? Well, millions of dollars in campaign ads on Chicago TV by Rauner and pretty much nothing by Dillard is the simplest answer.

Rauner has not only dumped millions of his own money into his campaign, he has successfully vacuumed up pretty much all the available traditional Republican money out there. Campaign cash that Dillard, Brady or Rutherford would have normally been expected to tap has been Hoovered up by Rauner instead.

According to the Capitol Fax/We Ask America poll, Dillard is ahead of Rauner among women in his district 33-26, but he trails badly among men, 46-27. Rauner also leads among seniors 65 and over (perhaps the most

important GOP demographic), 41-25.

Dillard said recently the multitude of DuPage County congressional, legislative and local Republican primary races, plus county auditor Bob Grogan’s state treasurer bid, would gin up local turnout and help him defeat Rauner. But if he ain’t winning his own district, it’s tough to see how Dillard’s theory will come to fruition in the rest of the county.

So, what about that IEA endorsement? Well, as of last week the teachers union had sent a mailer to its members touting Dillard and had given him $50,000 cash. Dillard has such a high overhead cost, though, that 50 grand won’t do much except keep the lights on in his office. Dillard received about $250,000 from the Operating Engineers union late last year and then spent pretty much all of it on overhead.

And even if the IEA puts more cash into Dillard and it all goes on TV, Rauner is spending a fortune on TV ads and the latest We Ask America statewide tracking poll shows him leveling off, but still with a huge lead over the entire pack.

The poll of 1,323 likely Republican primary voters was taken Feb. 18 and shows Rauner with 35 percent to 14

percent for Bill Brady, 13 percent for Dillard and 8 percent for Rutherford – which is confirmation of the Chicago Tribune’s recent poll results that showed Rutherford’s numbers are collapsing in the wake of his ongoing scandal. Rutherford was at 17 percent in a We Ask America poll taken Feb. 3, which was nine points above where he is in the latest round.

The new TV ads being aimed at Rauner by the labor unions also are having an impact. The ads have whacked Rauner for associations with a corrupt bribery expert, and for alleged abuse at some nursing homes his company used to own.

The unions have spent about $2 million, and Rauner has seemed to plateau since those attack ads began airing. He was at 37 percent on Feb. 2 and 39 percent Feb. 13, then down four points less than a week later to 35.

But even if Rauner has peaked, the other three are a very long way from catching up, and so far none of them have the money to do so, and time is not on their side.

Ovary removal aids high-risk women but at what age?

By LAURAN NEERGAARD The Associated Press WASHINGTON – For women who carry a notorious cancer gene, surgery to remove healthy ovaries is one of the most protective steps they can take. New research suggests some may benefit most from having the operation as young as 35.

Women who inherit either of two faulty BRCA genes are at much higher risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer than other women, and at younger ages. Actress Angelina Jolie generated headlines last year when she had her healthy breasts removed to reduce her cancer risk.

Future studies would have to verify the findings, and other specialists urged caution.

Waiting until age 40 for ovary removal, as many women with BRCA1 do today, makes a very small difference, stressed Dr. Claudine Isaacs, an oncologist and cancer risk specialist at Georgetown University’s Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, who wasn’t involved in the new research.

For women who carry the higher-risk BRCA1, the chance of already having ovarian cancer rose from 1.5 percent at age 35 to 4 percent at age 40, said lead researcher Dr. Steven Narod of the University of Toronto. After that, the risk jumped to 14 percent by age 50.

In contrast, the researchers said carriers of the related BRCA2 gene could safely delay surgery into their 40s. The study found only one case in a woman younger than 50.

Monday’s study is the largest yet to show the power of preventive ovarian surgery for those women. The surgery not only lowers their chances of getting either ovarian or breast cancer. The study estimated it also can reduce women’s risk of death before age 70 by 77 percent.

Ovarian cancer is particularly deadly, and there is no good way to detect it early like there is for breast cancer. So for years, doctors have advised BRCA carriers to have their ovaries removed between the ages of 35 and 40, or when women are finished having children.

Drug lord ‘El Chapo’ Guzman charged in Mexico The ASSOCIATED PRESS MEXICO CITY – Lawyers for drug kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman have filed an appeal seeking an injunction against any attempt to extradite him to the United States, a federal court announced Monday.

Mexican drug suspects have used such appeals in the past to delay extraditions for months or even years, though most eventually lose the appeals.

On Sunday, Guzman was also formally charged with violations of Mexico’s drug traf-

ficking laws, starting a legal trial process in Mexico that would also make a swift extradition to the U.S. less likely.

Guzman was charged with cocaine trafficking Sunday inside a maximum-security prison outside the nation’s capital, Mexico’s Federal Judicial Council announced. A judge has until Tuesday to decide whether to release him or start the process of bringing him to trial. Authorities believe the judge will launch the trial process, a Mexican federal official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity be-

cause he was not authorized to publicly discuss the matter.

Guzman can appeal the judge’s decision, a process that typically takes weeks or months, and in the past top drug suspects have often strung out appeals against extradition for months or years.

Prominent trial lawyer Juan Velasquez, who has represented former Mexican presidents, said appeals “can delay it, but Mexico has removed a lot of the obstacles to extraditing people.”

“If the United States asks for a Mexican to be extradited,

administration was likely torn between the impulse to move Guzman to a nearly invulnerable U.S. facility, and the desire to show that Mexico can successful retry and incarcerate the man whose time as the fugitive head of the world’s most powerful drug cartel had embarrassed successive Mexican administrations.

Many in Mexico see extradition as the best way to punish Guzman and break apart his empire, given the United States’ more certain legal system and better investigation capacities.

prison in 2001 and spent the next 13 years on the run before he was arrested Saturday morning in the Pacific coast city of Mazatlan by Mexican marines acting on U.S. intelligence. He faces charges in at least seven U.S. jurisdictions and U.S. officials have been pushing for his swift extradition.

It is a politically sensitive subject for the Pena Nieto administration, which has sought to carve out more control over joint anti-drug efforts with the United States.

Analysts said the Pena Nieto

that Mexican, sooner rather than later, will wind up extradited,” said Velasquez, who is not involved in the Guzman case.

Mexican officials are also weighing whether to renew a string of other charges that Guzman faces inside Mexico.

The decision to bring one local charge against Guzman indicates that President Enrique Pena Nieto’s administration is leaning toward refiling at least some of the others, further delaying any possible extradition.

Hagel proposes big cuts in Army

By ROBERT BURNS The Associated Press

Jo Beaudry holds up a sign Friday as she joins almost 250 gay rights supporters protesting Senate Bill 1062 at the Arizona Capitol in Phoenix. The protesters gathered demanding Gov. Jan Brewer veto legislation that would allow business owners to refuse to serve gays by citing their religious beliefs. The governor must sign or veto the bill by the end of next week.

Pressure mounting over Ariz. bill opposed by gays

By BOB CHRISTIE The Associated Press PHOENIX – Republican Gov. Jan Brewer faced intensifying pressure Monday from CEOs, politicians in Washington and state lawmakers in her own party to veto a bill that would allow business owners with strongly held religious beliefs to deny service to gay people.

Senate Bill 1062 has set off a political firestorm since the Arizona Legislature passed the bill last week, with critics denouncing it as blatantly discriminatory and embarrassing to the state.

The chorus of opposition has grown each day, and on Monday, three state senators who voted for the bill changed course and said they oppose it.

U.S. Sen. John McCain asked Brewer to veto the measure, as did the CEO of American Airlines.

State Sens. Bob Worsley, Adam Driggs and Steve Pierce sent their letter urging a veto just days after they joined the entire 17-member Senate GOP caucus in voting for the bill.

“I think laws are [already] on the books that we need, and have now seen the ramifications of my vote,” Worsley told The Associated Press. “I feel very bad, and it was a mistake.”

With the three GOP senators joining all 13 Senate Dem-

ocrats in opposition, there would be enough votes to defeat the measure in a revote.

But too much time has passed to allow a reconsideration, and the bill was sent to Brewer in a routine transmittal Monday that was accompanied by “boos” from Senate Democrats.

Brewer now has five working days to sign or veto the bill. She returns from governors association meetings in Washington on Tuesday afternoon.

Brewer doesn’t comment on pending legislation, but she vetoed a similar measure last year. That action, however, came during an unrelated political standoff, and it’s unclear whether she would support or reject this plan.

The bill is being pushed by the Center for Arizona Policy, a social conservative group that opposes abortion and gay marriage. The group says the proposal is needed to protect against increasingly activist federal courts and simply clarifies existing state law.

CAP President Cathi Herrod is urging Brewer to sign the legislation and deriding what she called “fear-mongering” from its opponents.

“The attacks on SB 1062 ... represent precisely why so many people are sick of the modern political debate,” Herrod wrote in a weekend posting on the group’s web-

site. “Instead of having an honest discussion about the true meaning of religious liberty, opponents of the bill have hijacked this discussion through lies, personal attacks and irresponsible reporting.

“Our elected leaders have a fundamental duty to protect the religious freedom of every Arizonan, and that’s what SB 1062 is all about.”

If SB1062 is vetoed, it will be a major defeat for Herrod’s group, which is seen as a powerful force on the Arizona political scene. Herrod suffered a similar loss last year when she tried to get the Legislature to include anti-abortion in a Medicaid expansion bill that Brewer was pushing. That effort angered Brewer, herself a strong opponent of abortion.

But with the business community lining up against the plan, Brewer could have cover for a veto. She’s worked hard to return Arizona’s economy to pre-recession levels with business-friendly incentives and tax cuts.

Pierce said he and the others went along to present a solid Republican front, despite misgivings.

“We were uncomfortable with it to start with and went along with it thinking it was good for the caucus,” Pierce said. “We really didn’t want to vote for it, but we made a mistake and now we’re trying to do what’s right and correct it.”

WASHINGTON – Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel on Monday proposed shrinking the Army to its smallest size in 74 years, closing military bases and making other military-wide savings as part of a broad reshaping after more than a decade of war.

Hagel outlined his vision in a speech at the Pentagon, a week before President Barack Obama is to submit his 2015 budget plan to Congress.

Hagel said that U.S. forces must adjust to the reality of smaller budgets, even as he asserted that the United States faces a more volatile, more unpredictable world that requires a more nimble military.

“We are repositioning to focus on the strategic challenges and opportunities that will define our future: new technologies, new centers of power and a world that is growing more volatile, more unpredictable and in some instances more threatening to the United States,” he said.

HARARE, Zimbabwe – Lawyers for former U.S. Rep. Mel Reynolds say he was deported to the U.S. after a paying a fine for violating Zimbabwe’s immigration laws.

Attorney Arthur Gurira said Monday that Reynolds left Zimbabwe Sunday afternoon.

A Harare magistrate Friday ordered Reynolds to pay a $100 fine or five days’ imprisonment after he pleaded guilty to flouting the country’s immigration laws by staying longer than his visa permitted.

Reynolds, 62, who lost his Illinois congressional seat in 1995 after being convicted of

statutory rape, was arrested at a Harare hotel on Feb. 17.

He also faced charges of possessing pornography after images of naked men and women were found on his iPhone.

Those charges were dismissed Friday because the judge ruled the police did not have a proper prosecution order.

Illinois county considers high-speed rail station EAST ST. LOUIS – A southwestern Illinois county is weighing whether to commit $500,000 toward an East St. Louis station along an emerging high-speed Amtrak route.

The Belleville News-Democrat reported St. Clair County’s

governing board is considering the investment.

The state is working to connect Chicago and St. Louis with a 284-mile rail track capable of allowing trains to reach 110 mph.

The board will consider using the money to aid the Illinois Department of Transportation with the design and planning of the station.

Board Chairman Mark Kern last week asked the panel’s other members to support the station.

The total cost of an East St. Louis station is unclear.

The project is expected to be completed in 2017.

to shrink as the nation prepares to end its combat role in Afghanistan this year.

Gen. Ray Odierno, the Army chief of staff, said recently that whatever the future size of the Army, it must adapt to conditions that are different from what many soldiers have become accustomed to during more than a decade of war. He said many have the misperception that the Army is no longer busy.

“People tend to think that the Army is out of Iraq and Afghanistan, and there is not much going on,” he said Jan. 23 at an Army forum.

“The Army is not standing still. The Army is doing many, many, many things in order for us to shape the future environment and prevent conflict around the world.”

The last time the active-duty Army was below 500,000 was in 2005, when it stood at 492,000. Its postWorld War II low was 480,000 in 2001, according to historical tables provided by the Army on Monday. In 1940 the Army had 267,000 active-duty members, and it surged to 1.46 million the following year as the U.S. approached entry into World War II.

That would make it the smallest since just before the U.S. entered World War II. Hagel said Obama’s budget proposal will include a government-wide “Opportunity, Growth and Security Initiative” that would provide the Pentagon with $26 billion on top of the $496 billion it is due to receive in 2015 under terms of the budget deal passed by the Congress two months ago.

Among the bolder moves in Hagel’s proposal is the elimination of the Air Force’s fleet of A-10 aircraft as well as its venerable U-2 spy planes, as well as reductions in the size of the Army National Guard.

Those moves are expected to draw some opposition in Congress.

Hagel said the administration will propose a new round of domestic military base closings in 2017, while noting that Congress has rejected such requests in recent years.

Ukraine’s turmoil brings tough challenge to Putin

By VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV The Associated Press MOSCOW – A successful Olympics behind him, President Vladimir Putin is facing what may become the most dramatic challenge of his rule: how to respond to the turmoil in Ukraine, a country he has declared vital for Russia’s interests, which is home to millions of Russian-speakers and hosts a major Russian navy base.

Some in Ukraine’s Russian-speaking east and south already have begged the Kremlin to help protect them against what they fear could be violence by the victori-

ous protesters who toppled Ukraine’s Moscow-backed leader. Putin has refrained from taking a public stance on Ukraine amid the Sochi Games, but the mounting tensions could quickly leave him with a stark choice: Stick to diplomacy and risk losing face at home, or open a Pandora’s box by entering the fray.

If Moscow openly backs separatist-minded groups in Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula that serves as the base for Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, it could unleash devastating hostilities that Europe hasn’t seen since the Balkan wars.

And ignoring pleas for help from pro-Russian groups in

Ukraine could shatter Putin’s carefully manicured image of the tough ruler eager to stand up to the West, eroding his conservative support base at home, where his foes could be encouraged by the Ukrainian example.

Facing such high risks, Putin has remained silent, weighing his options. His premier, Dmitry Medvedev, on Monday poured scorn on the new Ukrainian authorities who replaced President Viktor Yanukovych, and questioned their legitimacy. But he wouldn’t say what action Russia might take to protect its interests.

“If you consider Kalash-

nikov-toting people in black masks who are roaming Kiev to be the government, then it will be hard for us to work with that government,” Medvedev said.

The Russian Foreign Ministry criticized the West for turning a blind eye to what Moscow described as the opposition reneging on its agreement signed Friday to form a unity government and aiming to “suppress dissent in various regions of Ukraine with dictatorial and, sometimes, even terrorist methods.”

At the same time, NATO’s supreme allied commander in Europe, Gen. Philip Breedlove, discussed events

in Ukraine with Gen. Valery Gerasimov, chief of the general staff of Russia’s armed forces, and they agreed to keep each other informed about developments in the country.

Amid spiraling tensions and increasingly tough rhetoric, Putin’s best hope for striking a peaceful compromise on Russian interests in Ukraine could paradoxically be former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, who was freed Saturday after more than 2½ years behind bars.

Tymoshenko, who narrowly lost the 2010 presidential vote to Yanukovych and landed in prison on abuse of office charges that were denounced

by the West, immediately jumped to the forefront of Ukraine’s political scene. She flew to the capital after her release to speak to tens of thousands of demonstrators on Kiev’s Independence Square, known as the Maidan.

Her charisma, ambitions and unparalleled political skills would make her all but certain to win the Ukrainian presidency in early elections set for May. Putin, who had good ties with Ukraine’s fiery ex-premier in the past, could hope for striking a deal with her that would safeguard Russian interests without the need to resort to force.

anti-gay sentiment across the country.

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni said the bill, which goes into effect immediately, was needed because the West is promoting homosexuality in Africa.

Museveni may have defied Western pressure to shelve the bill, four years and many

versions after it was introduced, but his move – likely to galvanize support ahead of presidential elections – pleased many Ugandans who repeatedly urged him to sign the legislation.

Nigeria’s president similarly signed an anti-gay bill into law just over a month ago.

8WORLD BRIEF Uganda president signs harsh anti-gay law ENTEBBE, Uganda – Uganda’s president on Monday signed an anti-gay bill that punishes gay sex with up to life in prison, a measure likely to send Uganda’s beleaguered gay community further underground as the police try to implement it amid fevered

Shown in this scene from the 1984 movie “Ghostbusters” are Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd (center) and Harold Ramis.

More recently, he directed ‘Analyze This’ • RAMIS Continued from page A1 “I hope that when you see the movie, you will enjoy seeing Woodstock on film and delight in the knowledge that people all over the world will get to enjoy your hometown as well. We certainly have enjoyed it and we feel very privileged to have been able to share it with you.”

Ramis is best known for his roles in comedies such as

“Ghostbusters” and “Stripes.”

Along with directing “Groundhog Day,” he also directed “Caddyshack” and co-wrote “National Lampoon’s Animal House” and “Meatballs.”

More recently, he directed “Analyze This,” a movie starring Billy Crystal and Robert DeNiro.

Ramis’ family was at his side when he died.

Shoemaker said he and Ramis kept in touch in the years since the film, and Ramis even made it back to Woodstock

on several occasions for the Groundhog Day celebration.

“People have come to Woodstock from all over the world [because of ‘Groundhog Day’],” he said. “They want to see where the movie was made. They want to look at the plaque in the street where [Bill Murray] stepped in the water. It has helped the town for the last 20 years. It’s a sad day.”

Winner of primary to face Frerichs on March 18 • TREASURER Continued from page A1 a catalyst for change, though the treasurer’s role in state budget affairs is limited and recent office holders have used the position as more of a steppingstone to higher office.

Cross brings a number of advantages to the race, including wider name recognition due to his years in Springfield and in party leadership, not to mention having raised more than six times as much cash as Grogan.

Yet possibly complicating the Oswego Republican’s bid is his decision in November to vote for legalizing samesex marriage in Illinois. He was one of only three House Republicans to do so, and the vote held considerable risk as he was appealing to Republican primary voters who tend to be socially conservative.

“I think people are going to say, ‘I may not like it,’ but he’s trying to fix the state, he’s trying to fix the budget, he’s been aggressive on [pension reform], and I like what he’s been doing on financial issues,” Cross said in an interview.

While Grogan says he believes marriage is between a man and a woman, he has not made an issue of Cross’ vote on the campaign trail, noting same-sex marriage is “not related to the duties or the operations of the treasurer’s office.” He has focused on promoting his experience tracking county finances and operations, arguing that it makes him the best qualified candidate to run the treasurer’s office efficiently.

Illinois’ treasurer is tasked with investing more than

$15 billion in taxpayer dollars, helping Illinois citizens manage finances and keeping track of unclaimed property.

The office also manages college savings programs for Illinoisans. Those programs have landed previous officeholders in hot water, as both Rutherford, a Republican now running for governor, and his predecessor, Democrat Alexi Giannoulias, were criticized for the way they ran the Bright Start program, which lost close to $150 million in recent years.

“Having watched this office since the 1970s, probably the most important qualification for anyone to be the state treasurer is for them to be able hire competent people to run the office and then stay out of their way,” said Charlie Wheeler, a professor at the University of Illinois in Springfield and a longtime statehouse reporter.

In recent years, there have been several unsuccessful attempts to merge the offices of Illinois treasurer and comptroller, another state constitutional officer whose primary function is paying the state’s bills. Both Cross and Grogan say they support the idea.

Cross, 55, stepped down from his House leadership post in August when announcing his bid for treasurer. He had held the post for a decade, and has served in the Legislature since 1993. The former prosecutor has made fiscal reforms, pension reform and budget cutting a focus of his legislative career. In an Associated Press campaign questionnaire, he pledged to battle against government fraud, establish an “integrity unit” for the office and institute quarterly audits of the college savings program.

He says his gay marriage support comes from a longstanding belief in protecting individual freedoms. He acknowledged encountering blowback from some primary voters, but says he hopes his record will help them look past it. If he wins the primary, the vote could help him win broader support against a Democrat in the general election at a time when increasing numbers of Illinoisans support same-sex marriage.

Gloria Campos, the Republican Party chairwoman in southern Jackson County, agreed that Cross’ vote could have an impact in some swaths of the state. But at this point, she said, the issue is not being raised much.

“One time I have heard a remark. That’s about it,” she said.

Grogan, 45, is a CPA from Downers Grove and has served as DuPage’s auditor since 2008. He told the AP that speeding up the turnaround time in returning unclaimed property was one example of how he’d make the treasurer’s office more efficient. He says he’d use the office as a “bully pulpit to help drive reforms away from [Illinois’] fiscally irresponsible past.”

Cross has used his fundraising advantage to run radio commercials for months, while Grogan has so far been unable to afford a single ad.

Cross has raised $502,000 for the race, compared to Grogan’s $79,900. At the end of the most recent reporting period in December, Cross had $388,617 left and Grogan $21,087.

The winner of the March 18 primary will face Democratic state Sen. Mike Frerichs of Champaign in the November general election.

Oliver’s defense attorney, Mark Facchini, asked the jury panel whether they had moral or ethical objections to pornography.

Nearly 20 potential jurors were dismissed after saying they likely couldn’t set aside prejudice based on the nature of the charges against Oliver.

Some said they had been or

knew someone who was the victim of sexual assault.

Others said they had seen or read news accounts leading up to the trial. One juror was dismissed when she said she knew an alleged victim from one of Oliver’s other pending cases.

Since Oliver’s January 2013 arrest, authorities have three times added more allegations of sexual assault. The most recent charges were filed earlier this month, and

for those he was appointed an assistant public defender to represent him.

There are eight alleged victims in all. Attorneys expect to try each case separately.

Oliver remains in custody at McHenry County Jail in lieu of $4 million bond.

Jury selection will resume at 9 a.m. Tuesday. The trial before McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather is expected to last through Friday.

County Board District 1 (Republican): Gasser, Stieper Voters in McHenry County Board District 1 in this primary have three candidates to choose from for two spots on the Republican ticket.

Fox River Grove resident Andrew Gasser and Barrington Hills resident David Stieper are challenging incumbent Robert Nowak, from Lake in the Hills.

District 1 covers southern and eastern Algonquin Township and a sliver of Grafton Township, including parts of Algonquin, Cary, Fox River Grove, Lake in the Hills and Barrington Hills.

Gasser and Stieper have targeted the size of county government and the spending that goes with it. Gasser endorses running county government like a business when examining spending, particularly administration costs on the Mental Health Board. Stieper seeks to create a more efficient county government.

Both candidates pledged to not accept the health insurance and pension benefits that come with the office.

Nowak, a four-year incumbent, said that there is not a lot of excess money in the county’s budget. He seeks to hold the line on spending.

We endorse Gasser and Stieper.

County Board District 3 (Republican): Gottemoller, Gonsiorek Voters in McHenry County Board District 3 in this primary have four candidates to choose from for two spots on the Republican ticket.

Incumbent Joe Gottemoller is being challenged by former Nunda Township Highway Commissioner Donald Kopsell, School District 47 Board Member Nancy Gonsiorek and lawyer and former McHenry County Assistant State’s Attorney Sarah Jansen.

District 3 includes Crystal Lake, Nunda Township, a southern portion of McHenry Township and a northern portion of Algonquin Township.

Gottemoller’s experience as a lawyer for developers has been particularly useful for McHenry County residents in the tedious but important board task of developing a new zoning ordinance for the county. Gottemoller is a pragmatic and intelligent leader who would continue to have a strong and effective voice on the County Board.

Gonsiorek, an experienced CPA, has demonstrated a strong sense of fiscal responsibility during her two terms on the School District 47 Board, where she also served as chair of the board’s finance committee. Her professional and board experience overseeing an $85 million budget would be of great benefit as a new County Board member.

We endorse Gottemoller and Gonsiorek for District 3.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Let Zinke continue work To the Editor: As longtime citizens of McHenry County, we urge voters to cast their votes for Andrew Zinke for sheriff in the March 18 primary election.

It is imperative that he continue his work in protecting our citizens, families, homes and businesses, and in ridding our county of heroin and other dangerous and addictive drugs.

During Undersheriff Zinke’s 25 years of service in McHenry County, he has proved to be fiscally responsible, available to our people and always of service to our most vulnerable citizens.

Andrew has worked to build good working relationships among local, statewide and national law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and the U.S. Marshal’s Office, for the benefit of the communities in our county.

As friends of Undersheriff Zinke and as concerned citizens of McHenry County, we hope that voters throughout the county will recognize his extensive contributions to the safety of our citizens and businesses.

Dennis and Sheryl O’Donnell Crystal Lake

Zinke shows commitment To the Editor: As a citizen, parent and employee in McHenry County, I take safety in my home, at my children’s schools and my place of employment to be of utmost importance.

The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office sets the expectation of how effective and safe the county is.

The sheriff sets the tone in his department.

On two separate occasions in the past few months, I have seen Undersheriff Andy Zinke working

“the road” by directing traffic and assisting a disabled motorist. As a 10-plus-year resident of the county, I have never seen the sheriff or undersheriff working in such a capacity.

Mr. Zinke remains to be about the safety of the residents of the county. How often does management put themselves in their subordinates’ shoes? Mr. Zinke has demonstrated his commitment to the county and the residents of the county.

Jeanne Salazar Wonder Lake

McClellan has integrity To the Editor: County clerk candidate Nick Provenzano – the self-proclaimed watchdog – voted to spend $82,000 a year including expenses of taxpayer money on a federal lobbyist for his current boss – Randy Hultgren.

This contractor is given the right to a raise of up to 6 percent per year for the next two years. Do we not have elected representatives for this purpose?

See agenda item 15.2.B.9.a for the McHenry County Board meeting for Nov. 5, 2013.

Who is watching the self-proclaimed watchdog?

Nick also proposes to modernize the election process to be like other counties at the taxpayers’ expense of $4 million. No thanks.

I will vote for Mary McClellan.

She demonstrates leadership and integrity through her actions, not only words.

How to sound off We welcome original letters on public issues.

Letters must include the author’s full name, home address and day and evening telephone numbers.

We limit letters to 250 words and one published letter every 30 days. Election-related letters are limited to 150 words. The deadline to submit an election-

maintain fiscal conservatism to the McHenry County Clerk’s Office.

I will control spending, reduce redundancies and streamline inefficiencies to ensure we are spending every dollar wisely. I offer solid leadership qualities that can and will be utilized at the county clerk office. My opponent is a career politician.

My opponent wants to modernize the clerk’s office by spending tax dollars to the tune of $4 million at your cost. This would allow the election results to come in a couple of hours faster.

The problem with this idea is that it compromises the integrity that is currently in place and would allow for hackers. The only people who are willing to spend millions to reduce the safety and integrity of the voting process are politicians.

The word modernization sounds good until it costs the taxpayer more money.

Mary Elizabeth McClellan Holiday Hills

Not for the people To the Editor: A couple of interesting things have happened recently. We should pay attention to these happenings.

First, there was a vote on the debt ceiling. John Boehner and the Re-

related letter is 5 p.m. March 13.

publican Party asked for volunteers to vote for this so it could pass and provide “cover” (their words not mine) for representatives up for election in the next cycle.

It passed with our representatives, Peter Roskam and John Shimkus, voting “yes.” Because they believed it was the right thing to do? No. Because they were deemed safe in 2014 and they had substantial money in their campaign funds.

Nowhere is it mentioned what is right for the American people.

Just making sure people can get re-elected.

Then I open my Northwest Herald, and here is our county’s own Mike Tryon saying, “My job is not to beat up on Republicans. My job is to beat up on Democrats.” Nowhere does he say that his job is to work for the people of McHenry County.

See a pattern here?

I’m a registered Republican, but I do not believe that just because my party may be in the majority that we just ignore the rest. I believe the oath they take says they will work “for the people.”

There is nothing wrong with polls. The problem is our politicians only look at the polls to get them re-elected.

McHenry County in need of permanent homeless shelter For 25 years, McHenry County churches have opened their doors to the homeless. Members have changed, but the mission remains the same: Providing the homeless with emergency food and shelter.

We are the emergency sites.

Our sites are open from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. seven days a week from October through April. We have 10 churches participating, located in Cary, Crystal Lake, Harvard, Richmond, Wonder Lake and Woodstock, with overflow sites needed for safety. We serve 25 to 70 guests nightly, depending upon weather and other variables.

People enter homelessness for myriad reasons. Recent stories include one man entering because his care facility closed, while two women entered when they were evicted from their residences – one because of debt from medical ex-

penses, and the other because of her husband’s financial abandonment.

For these people and all guests, staying in an emergency site is stark reality. The following is a sample of a 12-hour stay: First, you find out where that night’s shelter is, get there, stand in line and wait for the doors to open at 7 p.m. You enter with an ID card from the PADS office. Otherwise, the police come and do a background check. No sex offenders, felons or people with existing warrants are allowed in. You and your bags are checked, and all contraband is confiscated.

Next, you pick a twin-size mattress on the floor. There is a fitted sheet, a regular sheet, pillow, pillowcase and blanket on your pad.

You put your bag down and make up your pad before eating. After dinner, you see guests arriving late, with

Tom Rogers some coming from work or school.

At 10 p.m., lights go out, doors are locked and you are on your pad.

The number of guests in the shelter determines the space between pads.

Tonight, your neighbor is closer than expected. Noise from snoring and headphones is loud. You struggle to get a good night’s sleep.

Around 5:30 a.m., breakfast begins and at 6 a.m., lights are on and everyone is up. After eating, you pack your bag, clean your area, gather all the linens and get a sack lunch. The site closes at 7 a.m. – no exceptions. Once you are out the door, you wonder how you will get to the site in the next town by 7

p.m., when your 12-hour stay begins again.

Without the amazing dedication of the volunteers who drive the program – literally hundreds serving throughout the entire season – this story could not be told. They set up and take down the space, cook meals, make bag lunches and do laundry, among many other tasks.

A special thank-you to them and the service they provide. Additionally, the 10 churches make a tremendous investment to support the program.

The members of these congregations deserve thanks as well.

After 25 years and providing over 4,500 nights of emergency shelter, we need an alternate model. It is time for McHenry County to establish a permanent shelter because we can do better. This shelter could be administered by its own nonprofit, partner with quality county

agencies providing services – such as those in the Continuum of Care – and grow the existing volunteers corps to continue their remarkable service.

If your first reaction to this is disagreement, ask yourself this question: Could you do your job and live your life as it is now if you had to move seven days a week?

14th District hopefuls debate Democratic candidates in primary emphasize differences

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The two Democrats vying for the chance to face incumbent U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren in November agree on raising the minimum wage, nixing the Keystone Pipeline and bringing back unemployment ben-

efits for the long-term unemployed.

But in their closing statements at a debate sponsored by the League of Women Voters of McHenry County Monday evening, Dennis Anderson of Gurnee and John Hosta of Spring Grove emphasized their differences.

“The issue here is who has

ocrats to take a small step in my direction and vote for somebody who’s a little more to the right, that’s a little more in the middle to encourage the Republican vote to make a change,” Hosta said.

The first-time candidate hammered repeatedly on the issues of full employment, upping trade regulations and

tariffs, eliminating wasteful programs and targeting fraud.

“One of the primary differences [between my opponent and I] is breadth of focus,” Anderson said. “I have tremendous respect for John being up for this, but as you’ve picked up tonight, his focus

Fire displaces residents at CL condominium complex

D-300 approves building projects

Flames reaching 20 to 25 feet were coming out of the second floor of the building, said Jim Rainbolt, president of the Randall Village Condominium Association.

He had arrived about five minutes after the alarm had gone off, he said, adding that the fire developed pretty quickly.

Randall Village is made up of 21 residential buildings, each housing six to eight apartments, Rainbolt said.

The fire department was able to bring the fire under control in 45 minutes and prevent it from spreading to other buildings, the release said.

The fire damage was mostly contained to the unit where the fire started and the roof that covers that unit, Battalion Chief William Whyte said.

There was water and smoke damage to the other units.

The residents of all four units in 1623 Carlemont Drive and of one unit in adjoined 1627 Carlemont Drive have been displaced, Rainbolt said.

ning the learning centers.

The district next year also plans to add a technology support specialist, as the district starts to use more iPads and SMART Boards.

Next school year, however, the district does plan to cut one classroom teacher as enrollment continues to decline. The district is projecting a net loss of 92 students districtwide next school year, but the enrollment decline is expected to stabilize in a few years, said Superintendent Brian Coleman.

The net gain in teachers in the district is 10.5 positions.

CARPENTERSVILLE – Construction will start in April on a $6.5 million plan that gives new buildings to District 300 administrators and Oak Ridge School students, despite objections from skeptical parents and district employees.

After numerous roll calls Monday, board members from the Carpentersville-based school district unanimously endorsed building plans and approved two contracts that put Elgin-based Dewberry Architects in charge of designing the projects by the end of March.

Facing a room full of district parents and residents, board members attempted to quell concerns from the audience that the district developed the project in secrecy. The administration publicly unveiled the building project for the first time two weeks ago.

“We aren’t taking this [project] lightly,” member Susie Kopacz said. “We have done our due diligence, but we need to do a better job of communicating that to the public.”

The building changes move the roughly 80 students at the alternative Oak Ridge school to the administration’s Central Office in Carpentersville and give the students a permanent home for the first time since the program started in 1998.

Construction crews will start $1.42 million in renovations to the near 15,000-square-foot Central Office by April 15, with a targeted completion by late July, according to the architect contract approved Monday. The converted office building should be open to students by the start of the 2014-15 school year, district officials said.

Dewberry architects will simultaneously design a new 32,000-square-foot, two-story office building for administrators by midMarch. Crews would then start constructing the $5.07 million building on district-owned property near Jacobs High School in Algonquin by April 15.

Administrators will use Hampshire High School as a temporary office until their new building is ready sometime in early 2015.

During the meeting, numerous parents urged members to table the project until the public had more opportunities to review the proposal and assess whether the relocation projects were the best options for the district. Administrators earlier reviewed the options the district exhausted to find a location for Oak Ridge students.

D-26 approves staffing plan

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com CARY – When Cary Junior High students attend school next year, they will have the opportunity to be in foreign language, health and computer technology classes.

Dedicated teachers for the specials, or noncore classes, are among the positions District 26 is bringing back next school year after they were part of major cuts that took effect in the 2010-11 school year.

Those classes are part of the 2014-15 staffing plan approved by the school board Monday, which calls for filling 11.5 new full-time posi-

tions in the district.

Approval of the plan brought applause from those in the audience.

The estimated cost for the new positions is $488,250, which has been incorporated into the district’s financial plan.

With the district’s improved finances, junior high students will have six weeks each of health, art, music, foreign language and computer technology, as well as daily physical education.

As part of the staffing plan approved on Monday, the school district will employ band directors, which have been paid for by the Cary Band Association since the

2010-11 school year.

The district is projecting it will have 1.5 positions for the fifth- through eighthgrade band program.

At the district’s elementary schools, art and music instruction will be doubled from 30 minutes a week to one hour a week.

Under the plan, the district will add three learning center/media teachers, who will help elementary school students when they go to the schools’ libraries for a halfhour a week.

As part of the 2010 cuts, the district went to one library media coordinator to share time between the schools, with assistants run-

Tuesday, February 25, 2014 • Page B3

CRYSTAL LAKE – The McHenry County Department of Health and Centegra will offer class to help quit smoking for adults in March. The seven-week class will be held on Wednesdays beginning March 12, from 6 to 7:30 p.m., at Centegra Health Bridge Fitness Center, 200 E. Congress Parkway in Crystal Lake. A $25 course fee, payable at the first class, is refundable if all sessions are attended. Class members will also receive a free three-day pass to Centegra’s Health Bridge Fitness Center.

Classes will teach practical ways to end nicotine addiction through group support and behavior modification.

It will also review nicotine replacement products that are currently on the market. Instruction is provided by MCDH staff that is trained in the American Lung Association’s Freedom

From Smoking program. This program is considered the “gold standard” and has helped tens of thousands of smokers quit over the past 30 years. Evaluation studies have shown that individuals who participate in Freedom From Smoking experience immediate health benefits, learn to address the physical, mental and social aspects of their addiction and are six times more likely to be smoke free one year later than those who quit on their own.

MCDH reports between 70 and 75 percent of class participants have quit smoking by the end of the program. Quitting smoking can add up to $2,500 a year in savings for those who smoke one pack a day.

For information and to register, call 1-877-CENTEGRA, or visit www.mcdh.info. To speak with a counselor immediately, call the Illinois Tobacco Quitline at 1-866-QUIT-YES.

ACTS announces its award recipients WOODSTOCK – On March 9, at the first Champion’s Brunch, the board of directors of Adult & Child Therapy Services will recognize four community champions that have had a significant impact on the nonprofit organization.

The Chester Gould Award will be given to Woodstock Mayor Brian Sager. The Goulds were strong supporters of ACTS and the award is given to someone that “reminds us of those simple values on which the continued good health and welfare of our society depend.”

The recipients of this award are extraordinary for their work to support the health and well-being of the community and ACTS. The inaugural Business Champion award is being given to the Woodstock Independent to recognize its partnership

with ACTS in new and different ways.

Woodstock and Crystal Lake businesswoman Kathryn Loprino is the recipient of ACTS’s Volunteer of the Year award. Loprino regularly serves on many of ACTS’s event committees, including ACTS of Sweetness and the annual golf outing.

A special Champion award is being given to John Carter. For more than two decades, Carter has been Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny at ACTS’s children’s holiday parties, providing a safe and comfortable way for the families to experience the magic of Christmas and Easter.

The brunch will be at 10:30 a.m. at the Woodstock Country Club. Tickets for the event are $50. The funds raised through the Champions’ Brunch will support ACTS Birth to Three program.

Causes of apartment fire still under investigation • FIRE

A firefighter carries a hose to a hydrant as crews battle a fire at the Randall Village Condominium complex on Carlemont Drive in Crystal Lake.

Continued from page B1 $350,000, the release said.

There were no injuries.

The cause of the fire is still being investigated, Whyte said.

The Crystal Lake Fire Rescue Department was assisted by the Crystal Lake building and public works departments as well as fire departments from Algonquin, Huntley, McHenry, Nunda Township, Cary, Woodstock, Lakewood, East Dundee, Carpentersville, Fox River Grove, Barrington and Marengo, the release said.

The Red Cross and Salvation Army also assisted.

Financial details remain unclear for part of project • PROJECTS Continued from page B1 Billita Jacobsen, a support staffer at Lakewood Elementary, questioned the district’s priorities and said conditions inside the elementary school are deteriorating.

“It was surprising to

read about, what I feel, is unnecessary spending of over $5 million to build a new building when you have a school in appalling conditions,” Jacobson said.

“If the [state] money ever sees the light of the day, shouldn’t that money go to repair existing buildings?”

District officials know they can use $750,000 from

the sale of the current Oak Ridge site, plus a $50,000 state grant, to pay for the majority of the Central Office renovations. But the financial details are hazier for the remainder of the project.

Officials will learn in the coming months whether they are in the running to receive $60 million in overdue capital

grants – dating to 2004 – from the state.

If that money doesn’t arrive, the district could use $1.2 million leftover from existing bonds or take a “short-term loan” to cover the project until the state comes through with the capital grant money, said Chief Financial Officer Susan Harkin.

WE’VE MOVED Jenner thanks administration THE ATTIC SHOPPE! • D-26 Continued from page B1 Former board member Chris Jenner, who was part of the board that made the decision to cut the specials during difficult financial times, thanked the board and administration for focusing on restoring the programs.

He also gave credit to teachers for accepting concessions in their current union contract.

“That contract though is the

main reason the board is being presented tonight with an affordable and responsible staffing plan,” Jenner said.

Board member Scott Coffey said the steps to bring back specials started four years ago.

“There were a lot of challenges and a lot of hard work involved by ... every staff member, every employee,” Coffey said. “Certainly the students had to bear some inconveniences as well ... We put the things in motion 48 months ago to get to this point today.”

Winner of Democratic primary will face republican Hultgren • PRIMARY Continued from page B1 is on trade and tariffs.

There are a lot more problems in this country than trade and tariffs, and the problems are not going to be solved by addressing trade and tariff issues.”

Anderson also downplayed the role fraud plays in government spending, adding that when it does exist it’s often created by providers, not recipients.

By cracking down on fraud and eliminating wasteful and inefficient programs, Hosta said many of the country’s problems could be addressed, including gridlock in Congress.

“I don’t know of any group that would vote

against looking at passing some legislation or at least getting committees to review some of the qualifications on some of these benefits to reduce spending,” Hosta said. “Once we start reducing spending in certain logical areas, I think gridlock will start to slow down.”

While Anderson said he’s not opposed to eliminate wasteful programs, the problem is identifying those programs, which is a “huge undertaking.”

The winner of the Democratic primary on March 18 will go on to face the Republican incumbent, U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, in the 14th Congressional District, which includes all of McHenry County, except for Algonquin Township.

McDonald’s is in the early stages of looking at whether it can make breakfast available later in the day. Taco Bell is taking aim at McDonald’s, which long has been the fast-food leader in the mornings, as it prepares for the launch of its national breakfast menu March 27.

Battle for breakfast Taco Bell takes aim at McDonald’s with morning options

By CANDICE CHOI The Associated Press NEW YORK – Egg McMuffin, meet the Waffle Taco.

Taco Bell is readying for the launch of its national breakfast menu March 27, with items such as the A.M. Crunchwrap designed to appeal to its fan base of younger men.

And the chain says breakfast will be available until 11 a.m. – a half-hour later than McDonald’s offers its Egg McMuffins.

“We can turn the breakfast conversation into a two-horse race,” Taco Bell President Brian Niccol said in an interview, noting that Taco Bell intends to be a “strong No. 2” after McDonald’s.

McDonald’s has long been the fastfood leader in the mornings, with its popular Sausage Biscuits, Hotcakes and other items pulling in about 20 percent of the company’s U.S. sales.

But the chain has been facing stiffer competition over the years, with places such as Starbucks and Subway looking for a piece of the growing breakfast business.

On March 4, for instance, Starbucks also plans to roll out new and revamped breakfast sandwiches, including a croissant sandwich with ham, cheese and egg.

It’s not clear how Taco Bell’s entry into breakfast will alter the fast-food landscape. Last year, an executive with Taco Bell’s parent company Yum Brands said breakfast accounted for about 4 percent of sales in locations where it was tested. But that was before the chain put its full marketing might behind the menu, he noted.

McDonald’s, which has more than 14,000 U.S. locations, also has said it plans to step up its marketing of breakfast this year as new players enter the space. Separately, the presi-

This undated product image provided by Taco Bell shows the company’s new waffle taco. dent of McDonald’s USA, Jeff Stratton, also told the Associated Press the chain is in the early stages of looking at whether it can extend its breakfast hours.

Stratton noted cutting off breakfast on the weekends at 10:30 a.m. “doesn’t go very well” with people in their 20s and 30s in particular. Still, figuring out how to serve both breakfast and lunch poses an operational challenge given the limited kitchen space in restaurants.

In the meantime, Kevin Newell, U.S. brand and strategy officer for McDonald’s, seemed unfazed in an interview late last week by Taco Bell’s breakfast plans.

“I think they’re going to find that going into the breakfast business is not like what they’re accustomed to, in terms of marketing,” Newell said. The breakfast menus of the two chains only have one main offering that seems to go head-to-head, a sausage and egg burrito.

Taco Bell has been testing and tweaking its menu in a select number of its nearly 6,000 U.S. locations over

the past several months.

For the national rollout, the company’s restaurants have had to hire additional staff, train existing staff and buy new equipment, including for the coffee it plans to start serving for the first time.

To keep operations simple at the start, Niccol said, Taco Bell will start with drip coffee before expanding to specialty coffees such as lattes.

The items on Taco Bell’s breakfast menu are intended to be easy to hold and eat on the go.

They include: • A.M. Crunchwrap: scrambled eggs, a hash brown, cheese and bacon, sausage or steak in a flour tortilla.

• Waffle Taco: a waffle wrapped around a sausage patty or bacon, with scrambled eggs and cheese, served with a side of syrup.

• Bacon and Egg Burrito: Bacon, scrambled eggs and cheese wrapped in a flour tortilla • Sausage Flatbread Melt: A sausage patty topped with cheese wrapped in a flatbread and grilled.

Boosting efficiency isn’t easy, but can be done Working more efficiently is one of those topics that I need to hear about often. Working efficiently isn’t easy.

None of us is born being efficient.

It is a learned skill. Being efficient requires change and definitely pulls us out of comfortable bad habits. Yet developing efficient practices can help all of us become better at what we do and have a better work-life balance. I share four basic ways to be more efficient: • Have an organized workplace.

Make certain your desk has the supplies ready at hand. For me, it’s business cards, fliers of events, volunteer brochures, pens, highlighters, pads of paper and paper clips – plenty of paperclips.

• Develop a plan for each day and keep it accessible. Some do this on computers. Millennials use their mobile phones. For me, I have files labeled A, B and C. A is what I need to get done that day. B is what I need to get accomplished within the week, and C is a long-term task that I need to work on, but doesn’t need to be accomplished overnight. This helps me prioritize well without procrastinating on projects I might not enjoy.

• Shut the door. This really trips me up. I really enjoy having my office door open for anyone who wants to visit. Yet I know if I can concentrate on one thing at a time or work

CHAMBER NEWS Kay Rial Bates on a project for at least 45 minutes uninterrupted, that helps me get a good start on a priority task. Victoria Cook of the Center for Guilt Free Success has advised me to shut my door once a day for those 45 minutes early in the day.

• Schedule time for the important things. Make certain you have put into your week some personal time for exercise, time with family and friends or just walking the dog. If you don’t have these special times scheduled, you may be tempted to overlook what makes life worthwhile.

••• The McHenry Area Chamber has a number of events in the coming weeks.

The chamber’s State of McHenry luncheon is Feb. 26. This is a great opportunity to learn about key issues affecting our community while meeting city officials. Reservations must be made by noon Tuesday.

McHENRY – Superior Felt & Filtration will be moving to a new facility at 1150 Ridgeview Drive, McHenry, as part of a planned expansion.

The move allows the Ingleside company, which makes nonwoven textiles, to relocate its corporate offices, manufacturing and distribution divisions all under one roof.

“With this move, our goal is to continue to streamline the ability to provide our growing customer base with high quality and great customer service,” Director of Sales Frank Porto said in a news release.

Fabrication work is expected to begin at the new facility by the end of March. The company should complete the move by June 1, Porto said.

Superior Felt & Filtration, which has about 60 employees, manufacturers nonwoven textiles for the medical, industrial, hygienic, cosmetic, automotive, filtration, decorative and appliance industries. The company also offers services such as adhesive coating, die cutting, slitting, packaging and printing. It is an ISO 9001 company.

The McHenry facility is a 75,000-square-foot building on 13 acres, according to a news release from Entre Commercial Realty LLC. Superior plans to double its size, adding another 75,000 square feet of building space, in the next three years, Porto said.

“We’ll also be expanding our workforce in the area,” he said.

Superior Felt & Filtration will maintain its environmentally controlled white room fabrication for the high-efficiency filtration markets. This includes life-saving medical filtration applications.

The building was previously occupied by Chirch Global Manufacturing. It was sold for about $2.5 million, said Dan Benassi of Entre Commercial Realty.

Virtue Advertising moves to Crystal Lake office CRYSTAL LAKE – Virtue Advertising, an Internet marketing agency, has moved from McHenry to a new office near Route 14 at 500 Coventry Lane, Suite 250, Crystal Lake The office will allow the business to grow and provide a centralized location with higher traffic for client meetings and business purposes, according to a news release from the company. The office has more space to accommodate additional full-time and part-time employees and new interns, who are expected to arrive in May. For information, visit virtueadvertising.com.

Ace Hardware to open new location in Fox Lake FOX LAKE – Fox Lake Ace Hardware will open in the coming months in Lakeland Plaza, occupying what has been since July of last year a vacant store in the shopping center, interim Fox Lake Village Administrator Bill Ganek said.

“They have to remodel the interior of the store, so at this point [we don’t know] how long it will take,” Ganek said.

The building, at 107 Towne Centre Lane, previously housed Bay Billiards & Sports Bar. The village’s long-standing Ace Hardware, at 10 E. Grand Ave., was closed in January of last year when owners sold the location to Thorntons Inc. The new store’s owners, Jeremy Melnick and father Les Melnick of Gordon’s Ace Hardware, already own five Ace Hardware stores in downtown Chicago. This will be the duo’s sixth store.

Baldwin may leave NYC

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Tuesday, February 25, 2014 • Section B • Page 6

Alec Baldwin says he misses the days when New Yorkers signaled their appreciation of celebrities briefly and politely while taking care to maintain privacy.

The 55-year-old actor writes in New York magazine he “probably” needs to move out of the nation’s largest city.

Baldwin said he has a happy home for the first time in his adult life. He said he’s considering Los Angeles, living insulated behind a gate with his wife and their child. A lot of the article deals with comments Baldwin said were misquoted or misinterpreted. Among other things, he details strongly worded evidence that he’s not homophobic.

Baldwin said he realizes he “could have done things differently.”

He apologizes if he has “offended anyone along the way.”

BUZZWORTHY Robin Thicke and Paula Patton are calling it quits.

A representative for the actress confirmed Monday she and the singer are ending their nine-year marriage.

“We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time,” the entertainers said in a joint statement.

Thicke, 36, and Patton, 38, met when they were teenagers.

They had a son, Julian Fuego Thicke, in 2010.

Piers Morgan, who succeeded Larry King in the 8 p.m. time slot three years ago, was drawing lackluster ratings. In contrast, King had a 25-year run on CNN. The air date for Morgan’s last show has yet to be determined, CNN said in a statement.

Morgan is a former U.K. tabloid editor who reinvented himself as a TV personality with stints as a judge on “Britain’s Got Talent” and its U.S. spinoff, NBC’s “America’s Got Talent,” and as a contestant on “Celebrity Apprentice.”

Samsung unveils Galaxy S5 Samsung sought Monday to frame its new Galaxy S5 smartphone as a lifestyle product, as it emphasized a built-in heart-rate sensor and improved camera features over its slightly larger size.

One of the main appeals of Samsung phones has been their size. The screen has steadily increased since the 4 inches (10.2 centimeters) on the original S in 2010, while the iPhone made that jump to 4 inches only in 2012 and has stayed that way since.

But the S5 pushes the screen to only 5.1 inches (13 cms), measured diagonally, from 5 inches (12.7 cms) in last year’s model. Instead of size, Samsung touted the new phone’s ability to adapt its screen to changing external conditions and to dim it to avoid disturbing others nearby.

The phone has a 16 megapixel camera, sharper than the 13 megapixels in its predecessor. It promises faster auto focus and the ability to blur the foreground or background of an image to emphasize a subject.

Samsung Electronics Co. made the latest announcement during the Mobile World Congress wireless show in Barcelona, Spain.

The new phone will go on sale worldwide on April 11. The company didn’t announce a price; its predecessor sold for about $600 without phone subsidies or a contract.

The S5 has a fingerprint sensor to use in place of a passcode to unlock the phone or make payments through PayPal. It’s a feature still rare in phones, though Apple introduced it in last fall’s iPhone 5s.

A Florida judge has set a Wednesday afternoon deadline for Justin Bieber’s lawyers to file objections to the release of police video taken after the singer’s Jan. 23 arrest in Miami Beach.

Miami-Dade County Judge William Altfield ruled Monday any objections to additional video releases must be filed by 2 p.m. Wednesday. Altfield is already withholding for review four clips of police video that depict Bieber urinating into a cup for a drug test.

Bieber’s attorneys want to review the entire 10 hours to determine if other images show the 19-year-old singer in various states of undress.

Neil Young is not done with writing memoirs.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has a deal with Blue Rider Press for a book focusing on his passion for cars, while also featuring stories about his life in music.

Blue Rider Press, an imprint of Penguin Random House, told The Associated Press Monday the new book is scheduled for the fall and currently is untitled. Young’s first memoir, “Waging Heavy Peace,” was a best-seller published by Blue Rider Press in 2012. Blue Rider Press said the second memoir is an “eclectic amalgam” that also will include artwork by Young and his thoughts on politics and the environment.

Hall will supplement a team already comprising Al Roker, Natalie Morales and Willie Geist.

A regular “Today” show fill-in host, Hall has recently interviewed Hugh Jackman and Mariah Carey. She also is the anchor of MSNBC’s “NewsNation.” She joined MSNBC in 2007.

Police say actor Sam Worthington has been arrested in New York City on charges of punching a photographer after the man kicked Worthington’s girlfriend in the shin.

The 37-year-old “Avatar” actor was arrested on an assault charge after the confrontation Sunday evening in Greenwich Village. The Australian actor was released on a desk appearance ticket, with a court date Wednesday. The photographer, 37-year-old Sheng Li, was released without bail after his arraignment Monday on misdemeanor assault and harassment charges. A court complaint says Worthington’s girlfriend told police Li followed her on the streets and tried to trip her.

CLASS 3A BELVIDERE SECTIONAL

Surprising Streaks fall in semifinal

The name is Wolves – with a ‘W’ CHICAGO – Pop quiz, smartypants.

Name the sports franchise in this town that has had a winning record every season for the past 20 years. Name the team that has won four championships and played in more than 1,500 regular-season games without a single sub-.500 record.

Hint: It’s not the Cubs. They’ve had 12 losing seasons since 1994.

Hint: It’s not the Bears. They’ve had 10.

Hint: It’s not the Blackhawks.

They’ve had nine.

Hint: It’s not the White Sox. They’ve had eight.

Hint: It’s not the Bulls. They’ve had seven.

Have you figured it out yet?

The answer is the Wolves, who quietly and consistently have put up winning season after winning season at the highest levels of minor league hockey. The franchise started during the 1994-95 season in the International Hockey League and switched to the American Hockey League in 2001-02, winning two titles apiece in each league.

Obviously, the Wolves’ formula for success is incredibly complicated.

“It’s actually pretty simple,” Wolves owner Don Levin said. “As long as you’re doing it, you might as well win. As long as you’re doing it, why not do it well?”

Aiming high is one thing. Hitting the target is another.

Hockey can be wildly unpredictable, with games often decided by a funny bounce or a quick deflection or a hot goaltender. The degree of uncertainty is even greater in the AHL, where rosters frequently are in flux as players are called up to the NHL or shuffled back to the minors.

As the top minor-league affiliate of the St. Louis Blues, the Wolves are expected to help develop young talent while chasing as many victories as possible. Levin made both goals possible, Wolves coach John Anderson said, by signing talented veterans with NHL experience to play alongside the Blues’ young prospects.

One of those veterans is Keith Aucoin, a 35-year-old center who spent parts of eight seasons with the Carolina Hurricanes, Washington Capitals and New York Islanders.

Go ahead. Try to tell him that a minor league team’s win-loss record doesn’t matter.

Rockford Lutheran uses late surge to stop Woodstock

By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO mmontemurro@shawmedia.com BELVIDERE – For almost 3½ quarters, the Woodstock girls basketball team’s defense pestered Rockford Lutheran and made the Crusaders work hard to score.

The Blue Streaks put the pressure on Lutheran throughout the Class 3A Belvidere Sectional semifinal and were clinging to a one-point lead with five minutes to play before everything began falling apart. For a defense that had held up so well for most of the game, the Crusaders’

quickness finally began taking its toll on Woodstock.

Costly turnovers, missed shots in the paint and an ill-timed intentional foul proved to be Woodstock’s

demise as Rockford Lutheran recovered for a 67-57 win to end the Blue Streaks’ playoff run.

“I think our defense broke a little bit, myself included,” Woodstock senior guard Megan Pautrat said.

“Yeah, it’s upsetting, but I can’t be anything but proud of myself and my teammates.”

Woodstock (9-19) led 49-48 after Cody Brand, who scored a gamehigh 22 points, knocked down a pair of free throws with 5:20 left in the game. However, the Crusaders answered on their next two possessions and took a 52-49 lead. The Blue

Streaks had rallied from five-point deficits twice earlier in the game.

But an attempt to be aggressive proved costly. Woodstock coach Marty Hammond said the coaches told Brand, who has experienced foul trouble during the season, she didn’t have any fouls at that point with four minutes remaining and could play more aggressively.

Brand tried to do that but made the mistake of going after the ball handler near halfcourt and was called for an intentional foul.

Johnsburg, R-B regional games changed

Regional shakeup

joestevenson@shawmedia.com Johnsburg’s bus trip for its Class 3A boys basketball regional game next week just got 40 miles shorter.

The Skyhawks were seeded No. 14 in the Antioch Sectional and slated for a trip Monday to Ridgewood High School in Norridge for a play-in game against No. 19 Chicago Sullivan.

On Monday afternoon, the IHSA announced that No. 2 seed Chicago Uplift (23-4) had been removed from the postseason Kyle Grillot – kgrillot@shawmedia.com because it played in four tourJohnsburg, with Steve Dixon (left), has been moved from naments during the season, a the Ridgewood Regional to the Richmond-Burton Regional. violation of IHSA rules.

The IHSA rearranged the games in the Antioch Sectional, moving each team up one spot in the seeding. Johnsburg,

“Made my day!” Johnsburg coach Mike Toussaint said. “It didn’t make any sense where we were going. If we won Monday, we played Tuesday and with the play-in game [and 3-point shootout], we were guaranteed three trips.”

Toussaint said playing at R-B instead will be like a home game for the Skyhawks and their fans.

R-B coach Brandon Creason related to what Toussaint was feeling.

“We went to Chicago Senn last year to play Uplift,” Creason said. “I know how he feels [facing a long trip].”

BULLS

Heat gave Bulls dose of defensive reality

By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com ATLANTA – It’s been easy to forget.

After all, the Bulls haven’t had to deal with teams that dine on defense such as the Miami Heat or Indiana Pacers since early December.

On Dec. 5, to be exact, and the Bulls manhandled the Heat, evening their record against the two Eastern Conference powerhouses at 2-2.

Since then, the Bulls have played a lot of high-powered offensive teams from the West and beaten up on a lot of the waste floating around in the East. That’s how the Bulls have improved from 13-18 at the start of January to a team looking to grab homecourt advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

But a punch-in-the-mouth game?

It was almost as if the Bulls had forgotten what that was like. At least until Sunday.

It wasn’t just the Heat’s nine AP photo 3-pointers that made the Bulls unThe Bulls’ Carlos Boozer (center) is fouled by the Heat’s Shane Battier (left) as Chris comfortable, it was a defense that Bosh gets out of the way Sunday in Miami. The Heat won, 93-79. had the ability to strangle them. The

BLACKHAWKS

Bulls had inflicted the same kind of suffocating defense on other teams during their 17-8 surge heading into Atlanta tonight.

“They’re good, real good,” reserve Taj Gibson said of the Heat’s defense.

“They just got hot on a couple shots, a lot of contested 2s that we could live with, but the defense was there for them the entire game.”

Next Not that the Bulls should have Bulls at Atbeen surprised. lanta, 6:30 p.m.

After losing in Tuesday, WGN, Game 1 of the EastAM-1000 ern Conference semifinals because of letting Nate Robinson loose for 27 points, the Heat made the adjustment by aggressively trapping Robinson on the pick-androll, as well as ball pressure as soon as he crossed halfcourt. Robinson scored 28 points total the next three games, including an 0 for 12 in Game 4, before being eliminated in Game 5.

This season, Derrick Rose got a dose of that Miami trap, as they double-teamed him to negate the pick-and-roll throughout the game, holding him to 4-for-15 shooting in a 107-95 loss. Rose acknowledged he didn’t remember teams being that aggressive with him on their double teams.

The latest victim? D.J. Augustin.

The offensive igniter for the Bulls went 0 for 10 and finished with two points from the free-throw line Sunday. No wonder coach Tom Thibodeau made the decision to stay in Miami overnight and have a film session Monday before flying to Atlanta.

“They are good,” Thibodeau said of the Heat’s defense. “That’s why you have to move the ball.

“Yet, we have to give [the Heat] credit. They played hard in the second half. But we have enough guys that can score. There are other things you can do [if you’re not scoring].”

When it comes to facing the Heat and the Pacers, the Bulls’ players might want to figure that out.

BROOKLYN NETS

Playing in Olympics Collins finds welcoming locker room could benefit Hawks

By BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com SOCHI, Russia – Jonathan Toews remembers the first few games in 2010 after the exhilaration of winning Olympic gold in Vancouver. The Blackhawks played four games in six days, starting on the road on Long Island.

And, well, there’s no delicate way to put this: Playing the Islanders wasn’t exactly like playing the United States.

“The level of play is so high [at the Olympics],” said Toews, who helped Canada win its second consecutive Olympic gold medal Sunday against Sweden. “If I remember last time, going back to the NHL style, the pace seemed like almost a step down, where you just felt relaxed and knew you had time with the puck. Maybe that was just because guys were coming off their break and they’re out of shape, and you didn’t miss a beat. I think it’s a good thing.

Not a big deal for us.”

The big fear in Chicago leading into the Olympics was that the grueling two-week tournament, combined with the travel, would hurt the Blackhawks. The Hawks themselves don’t share that concern. While Andrew Shaw and Ben Smith went to Hawaii, Brandon Saad, Brandon Bollig and Nick Leddy went to Mexico and Bryan Bickell went fishing, 10 of their Hawks teammates were playing at the highest level of hockey possible.

“I think we’re going to be in better shape than most of the guys that have so-called vacation right now,” silver medalist Niklas Hjalmarsson said during the Olympic tournament. “We’re still paying games. It’s just six games. I don’t think it’s going to be that

Next for the Hawks Hawks at N.Y. Rangers, 6 p.m. Thursday, CSN, NHLN, AM-720 big of a difference at the end.”

Besides, the last time the Hawks participated in the Olympics – in 2010 – they went on to win the Stanley Cup. And the Blues, who are tied with the Hawks for first place in the Central Division with three games in hand, had nine players in Sochi, so it’s likely a wash.

Defenseman Duncan Keith said that while the Olympics take something of a physical toll, the net effect is a positive one.

“These pressure-type games are only going to make us better as players,” he said. “I look back in 2010, and it made me a better player playing the gold-medal game and games like that. You learn to deal with that pressure and those tight situations where the next goal [means] the game could be over. Sometimes guys can get nervous, whereas other guys rise to the occasion.

They learn to deal with that pressure of playing those big games and not panicking and knowing they’ll come through in the end.”

What matters most is the Hawks appear to have escaped Sochi unscathed. The Islanders lost John Tavares to a season-ending knee injury, the Red Wings lost Henrik Zetterberg for at least the rest of the regular season to a back injury, the Rangers lost Mats Zuccarello to a hand injury and the Panthers lost Tomas Kopecky (head) and Aleksander Barkov (knee) to injuries.

Wolves in pursuit of 3rd Calder Cup since 2002 • MUSICK Continued from page C1 “Yeah, it does matter,” Aucoin said. “I think the best way you’re going to develop a player is by winning. You thrive off of those experiences and you learn from them.

“When you’re in a losing atmosphere, you’re not going to develop. I’ve been on a lot of teams that have been bad, and people don’t like each other and it’s just not fun going to the rink.

“Winning is everything, really. And this organization has done it for a long time.”

They’re doing it again.

At 31-17-4-2, the Wolves are in the thick of a crowded playoff race with 22 games to go in the regular season. Five games remain against the rival Rockford IceHogs, whose home rink is about 70 miles

west of where the Wolves play at Allstate Arena.

So while the Blackhawks take aim at another Stanley Cup championship this spring, the Wolves will pursue their third Calder Cup title since 2002.

“It’s not as much about having a winning record,” Anderson said. “It’s about winning outright.

“I believe we can win a championship here this year.

I believe in the guys we have out there. We work hard and we have great goaltending.”

They also have a Wolves emblem on their sweaters.

After 20 years, that stands for something.

Jason Collins has a week and a half to prove himself to the Brooklyn Nets.

He signed a 10-day contract, one of the toughest deals in sports because it gives non-superstars almost no time to impress their coaches and teammates in hopes of sticking around.

With this group, Collins did that long ago: The Nets’ locker room is filled with former teammates who have accepted the league’s first openly gay player and his on-court habits, which are the ones that matter most to them.

“Guys already know what to expect from me. It’s like, OK, he’s not going to magically have a 40-inch vertical (leap) and shoot 3s,” Collins said.

That made it the ideal place for his historic return to the NBA. Perhaps, as numerous players insisted after Collins came out in a Sports Illustrated article in April, athletes were ready to accept a gay teammate. Maybe Collins would have been welcomed anywhere he signed.

But maybe not. As the bullying scandal involving the Miami Dolphins proved, the locker room can be a place where abusive language can

The loudest voices with the Nets, however, belong to the team leaders, and they’ve already made up their mind about Collins.

Old teammate Jason Kidd coaches the team. Collins played with Joe Johnson in Atlanta and Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce in Boston, and they are now the respected veterans in Brooklyn.

“I know those guys over there in Brooklyn, KG and those guys, played with him in Boston, and they’re going to welcome him with open arms,” said Oklahoma City

center Kendrick Perkins, who also played with Pierce and Garnett with the Celtics.

“It’s a veteran locker room, so they’re very mature, and they’re going to accept him.”

Added Clippers and former Celtics coach Doc Rivers: “It’s a perfect place with Kevin and Paul. He was with us in Boston, so they know what he can do defensively.”

Collins played 6½ years with the Nets, where some in the organization still call him “Twin,” his nickname when he played for them and reached the NBA Finals with Kidd in 2002 and 2003. One of his first calls when he came out last April was to Kidd.

“You look at all the con-

nections that Jason has,” Kidd said, naming not only Jason Collins’ former teammates but also some who played with his twin brother, Jarron, “and also being that he played with the Nets before, so I think this is a great opportunity for him.”

Brooklyn proudly boasts of its diversity – Jackie Robinson broke baseball’s color barrier playing for the Dodgers – and the Nets’ locker room makeup fits. Right next to Pierce and Garnett toward one corner of their room at Barclays Center are Russian Andrei Kirilenko and Mirza Teletovic from Bosnia.

They are owned by a Russian, Mikhail Prokhorov, who clearly doesn’t share his country’s anti-gay policies.

As for Collins’ sexuality?

Well, there was a time when only whites were trusted to coach and more than a third of the league’s coaching jobs are now held by blacks, so the NBA has seen the benefit of embracing groups who previously felt shut out.

“Twenty years ago or 30 years ago, I wouldn’t be standing here, probably,” said Toronto coach Dwane Casey, who is black. “If you’re going to exclude one group of people, you’re going to exclude more than one group. I think it’s great for the league.”

Earnhardt’s Daytona win lifts ‘heavy weight’ DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – There was a point late in the Daytona 500 when Dale Earnhardt Jr. had a moment to catch his breath. It was clearly his race to lose and the tension ran thick through Junior Nation, all the way into his car.

Steve Letarte, the crew chief and cheerleader who had rebuilt Earnhardt’s crumpled confidence and returned him to a championship contender, used the moment under caution to settle his driver.

“Having fun?” Letarte said over the radio.

“Yeah, but it’s the big prize, man. It’s hard to enjoy it,” Earnhardt said, before he paused. “I’m enjoying particular pieces of it, but the entire experience is driving me crazy.”

That’s the albatross that was strapped to the back of NASCAR’s most popular driver as he closed in on his second Daytona 500 victory. It had been 10 years since he won his first 500, and after three runner-up finishes the last four seasons in a race that had caused his family so much heartache and joy, the moment was overwhelming.

There’s so much pressure on Earnhardt, who entered the season-opening showcase mired in a 55-race losing streak dating to 2012. He’d won only two races since joining mighty Hendrick Motorsports in 2008, and as he closes in on his 40th birthday, he is still searching for his first Cup championship.

It’s been openly stated by the suits at NASCAR that when Junior wins, NASCAR’s popularity surges. So under that theory, if he could just get it together, the days of flat television numbers and sagging attendance would certainly spike.

That’s a lot of pressure to put on one guy, and it hit him as he readied himself for the homestretch Sunday night.

“It’s a big race and you want to win it so badly, and your team wants to win so

IN THE PITS Jenna Fryer badly,” he said afterward. “You realize at that moment that there are countless people watching on television and there are countless people sitting in the grandstands with your shirts and hats on, and your team is over on the pit wall and your family back home – there are so many people pulling for you and want to see you win. It’s a heavy weight.”

This time, he delivered.

He emerged from a rain delay of more than six hours with the strongest car in the field. As other drivers struggled to keep busy during the lengthy break, Earnhardt said his concern was not consuming too much of the junk food stored in his motorhome.

He knew what he had in the No. 88 Chevrolet.

“I knew it was something special,” he said. “I knew we had enough race car. I was a little bit nervous because the pressure was on me because there was plenty of car to do it.”

Earnhardt handled every challenge over the final 50 miles. He shook off Greg Biffle, the peskiest foe, and then Carl Edwards. Lined up for a two-lap sprint to the finish, he found himself next to one-time protege Brad Keselowski, who had a car almost as strong as Earnhardt’s.

But Earnhardt had teammate Jeff Gordon on his bumper to help on the final restart, and once he cleared Keselowski it was essentially over. Moves made by other drivers in the pack ruined Keselowski’s pursuit and Denny Hamlin stormed through the field but didn’t have the help he needed or enough laps to mount a proper charge.

Hamlin, who won two races earlier in Speedweeks and was going for the trifecta, was dejected with second place. But he noted the significance of the victory.

“Any time an Earnhardt wins at Daytona,” he shrugged.

The late Dale Earnhardt won 34 races at Daytona International Speedway, but his only 500 victory came in 1998 in his 20th try. He was killed in an accident on the last lap of the 2001 race, triggered while he tried to protect a 1-2 finish for Michael Waltrip and his son, who both drove for him.

Conspiracy has followed Earnhardt Jr. since his father’s death as fans wondered if some of his biggest career moments were freebies from NASCAR during a time of mourning. Third-place finisher Keselowski believes Daytona 500 win No. 2 cannot be challenged.

“I think this particular race, there’s no drama. There’s no feeling I think anybody could legitimately have that there’s voodoo magic that he won,” Keselowski said.

There was only euphoria.

NASCAR’s favorite son won the biggest race and earned the first spot in the playoffs under a new championship format that rewards winning. Hendrick Motorsports got at least one week of respite from fans wondering why Earnhardt never wins.

And Earnhardt, at least for this week, got to remove that albatross. And after finally joining Twitter, he rewarded his fans – more than 400,000 despite only four tweets – by posting a Monday morning selfie, standing in front of the statue of his father at Daytona: “Look who I ran into at the Daytona Experience. Dad’s Happy!”

BOYS BASKETBALL: CLASS 1A HARVEST CHRISTIAN REGIONAL

Faith Lutheran’s comeback falls short Saints overcome almost all of early 16-point deficit

By ANDY SCHMIDT sports@nwherald.com ELGIN – After falling behind by 16 points after one quarter Monday night, it appeared Faith Lutheran’s boys basketball team was going to see its season end in lopsided fashion at the Class 1A Harvest Christian Regional.

The fourth-seeded Saints would rally back and pull within one but couldn’t tie the score or take the lead in a 62-59 loss to fifth-seeded Bridgeview Universal. Universal moves on to play top-seeded Westminster Christian on Wednesday night.

8SPORTS SHORTS Dinner to honor retiring Harvard coach Haak Harvard High School will host an event for retiring coach and teacher Tim Haak at 7 p.m. April 5 at the Harvard Moose Lodge.

“That was really nice,” Clauss

Faith Lutheran (5-15) struggled to stop Ismail Jarad, who made six 3-pointers, including a 25-footer to end the first quarter to give the Stars a 2610 lead. Jarad finished with 20 points to lead Universal.

The Saints wouldn’t give up, however, and slowly began to rally back, cutting the Universal lead to six in the second quarter but trailed 39-27 at the half. The second half started much better for Faith Lutheran with an 11-2 run to cut the Universal lead to 41-38.

Every time the Saints would rally, however, Jarad would hit another 3-pointer. After he hit two more 3s, Universal was ahead by nine again.

with two minutes to go.

With the Saints losing by four a minute later, Jake Larson converted a three-point play to pull Faith within 60-59 with a minute to go.

After two Universal free throws in the last minute, the Saints had a chance to tie, but Larson’s long 3-pointer at the buzzer rattled off the rim. Larson finished with 23 points to lead the Saints, while Ben Boyer added 19.

Clauss said there are a lot of things that will make next season a bit harder than this year with the graduation of Larson, Boyer and Andrew Tieman, but there are plans to take the program to the next level.

“We’ve got our work cut out for us for sure,” Clauss said. “We are going to try to start some summer camps and move forward from here. We’re losing three players, so that’s going to be hard for us. We’ve got a lot of ground to cover.”

ADAM PISCHKE Marian Central, so.

Pischke scored a career-high 41 points, which also is the best for any area player this season, as the Hurricanes defeated Guerin, 77-65, on Wednesday.

The guard had 12 field goals, eight of which were 3-pointers, and hit 9 of 12 free throws.

Pischke came back in Friday’s game and scored 21 points as Marian beat Montini, 72-70, to make it to the .500 mark at 15-15.

Streaks’ defense gives Lutheran trouble R-B moves up WOODSTOCK to No. 6 seed • Continued from page C1

Lutheran (19-10) made the two technical foul shots and then scored again 30 seconds later to go ahead 56-49 with 3:26 remaining in the game. Crusaders coach Joni Carlson said that was the turning point in the game, and Brand agreed. The Blue Streaks couldn’t recover and were only able to pull within six points down the stretch.

“It was pretty tough because I felt like all the weight was coming down on me since I didn’t need to [foul],” Brand said. “I feel like that was the point we started going downhill. I feel guilty about that.”

Still, Brand and Pautrat (13 points) delivered big offensive performances to put the Blue Streaks in position to advance to the sectional final.

The Blue Streaks’ defensive effort only improved as the first half progressed. They held the Crusaders to one point in the first four minutes of the second quarter, part of a 7-1 run that gave Woodstock its first lead of the game, 17-15. Woodstock maintained its lead until two minutes were left in the half.

The Blue Streaks grabbed the momentum heading into halftime when freshman Gabby Scolio scored on a putback as time expired to cut Lutheran’s lead to one point, 24-23.

Ultimately, the Blue Streaks couldn’t stop sophomore center Abby Woollacott (20 points) and sophomore guard Ballie McGirk (21 points).

R-B lost to Marengo, 54-51, on Friday night and holds a one-game lead in the Big Northern Conference East Division. The Rockets can win the title outright by beating Harvard and Burlington.

CUBS SPRING TRAINING

Pitcher Sanchez hopes to regain 2010 form

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com MESA, Ariz. – When Jonathan Sanchez felt his lower leg give way as he planted to field Randall Delgado’s bunt that August night in Atlanta, he knew something was very wrong.

But he had no idea how far in the wrong direction it would send his budding career.

The high ankle sprain he suffered in that 2011 game ended his season for the San Francisco Giants and had a carryover effect he said he fought all the way into last season, three teams later with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

It was a long, bruising fall from a breakout 2010 season for the lefthander that included winning the season-finale clincher that got the Giants into the playoffs and finished

with a World Series start and a ring.

“It’s pretty hard to think about it,” he said. “When you’re up there with [Tim] Lincecum, [Barry] Zito, [Matt] Cain, [Madison] Bumgarner and then come here for the Chicago Cubs trying to make the team, it’s pretty hard.”

For the second year in a row, at 31, the hard-throwing Sanchez is starting over, competing for a roster spot with a new team as a minor-league free agent – the kind of reclamation project that is the common thread running through this Cubs camp.

What’s different this time for Sanchez is that after 137 starts in his past 143 games, he’s reinventing himself as a reliever – the Cubs hoping to turn his electric stuff into lightning in a bottle for their rebuilt bullpen.

And this, too, is different, he said: “I’ve got my speed, my slider, my

split – everything is there. … I’m getting back to where I was.”

Teammate Nate Schierholtz knows what that would mean.

“He made guys look bad,” said Schierholtz, who also was with the Giants when Jonathan Sanchez was at his Sanchez best. “He wasn’t just getting contact outs.

He was making guys look embarrassed at times. … When he’s on and he’s got his command, he’s dirty.”

Command has always been the most fragile part of Sanchez’s game.

Even in his big 2010 season he led the National League in walks and burned through enough pitches that he averaged less than six innings a start.

But his stuff rivaled the All-Stars

and Cy Young winners on his staff.

His 205 strikeouts and major-leaguelow .204 opponents’ batting average that year helped lead to a 3.07 ERA that was lower than those of Cain, Lincecum and Zito.

“You don’t see that kind of stuff out of a lefty that often,” said Cubs catcher Eli Whiteside, who caught Sanchez’s no-hitter with the Giants in 2009. “He had a perfect game going into the eighth that day. That was kind of unusual for him. But he’s got great stuff.”

“Explosive” is how pitching coach Chris Bosio describes it. “It’s being able to harness it.”

Especially as a bullpen guy who can’t waste time finding his stuff. Bosio said the staff is working on different angles, positions on the mound, even posture, to help him find his location quickly and repeatedly.

Sanchez said he’s fine with

switching to relief, especially if it means finding a home again in the big leagues. And while rediscovering his 2010 effectiveness sounds like a recipe for returning to rotation work, “It could be nasty in the pen, too,” he said.

Between incumbent lefty James Russell and free-agent acquisition Wesley Wright, the Cubs are open to taking three left-handers north when they break camp, especially if Travis Wood remains the only lefty in the rotation.

“I would take as many lefties as we possibly could,” Bosio said, “especially guys with arms like Sanchez.

“We’ve got some options,” he added, referring to left-handed inventory that also includes Zac Rosscup and side-arming Tommy Hottovy.

“But Sanchez has got the best pure stuff.”

WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

Gophers’ Kill earns extension, $2M raise

Sox want to avoid hangover

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

By DAVE CAMPBELL The Associated Press Minnesota football coach Jerry Kill answered his telephone not long after having his annual compensation boosted to more than $2 million.

His brother was calling.

“You ain’t worth that,” he told Kill from their native Kansas. “I’m sitting here working on beef cattle, and they’re Jerry Kill paying you that to coach football? Is this country crazy?”

Kill just laughed.

“I can’t answer that question,” he said.

With his farmhand humility and homespun humor, Kill spoke Monday at a news conference about his newly enhanced contract and upcoming spring practice. He said he was appreciative of the hefty raise and the extra year on the contract, but he said he’s “getting paid way too much” in the same sentence he mentioned his daughter makes $29,000 a year doing inner-city work.

“I’m the same guy that lived in a trailer house for five years and made $250 a month,” Kill said, referencing his climb up the coaching ladder from Webb City High School in Missouri to Division II schools Saginaw Valley State and Emporia State to the FCS level with Southern Illinois, a mid-major program at Northern Illinois and finally to the Big Ten at Minnesota.

Kill’s restructured contract includes a stipulation that the total pay for his top nine assistant coaches must rank in the top six of the conference. He said he wouldn’t have signed the deal without that. He also said he sees this contract as a sign to recruits of stability and progress.

“We’re building a program.

It’ll take time. We want to be smart about what we pay anyone, and we want to be good stewards of our finances,” athletic director Norwood Teague said. “It’s a building program, and we want to do the best we can every day and see where it lands down the road.”

The Gophers are 17-21 in three seasons under Kill. He has come far enough in his fight with epilepsy that he’s back behind the wheel. State law requires licensed drivers to be at least three months without a seizure.

“I’m driving, but not very far. That’s one goal,” Kill said.

“My second goal is to make everybody proud of Gopher football. I think we’ve moved forward on that.”

University President Eric Kaler has consistently supported Kill’s capability to succeed at the job over the long term, even while he had to miss some time last fall to treat his condition.

Seizures kept Kill from traveling to the Oct. 6 game at Michigan .

GLENDALE, Ariz. – Enough talk about last season – although a little reminder now and then doesn’t hurt.

As the White Sox go through spring-training drills, “getting it right” has a whole new meaning after the 2013 team was buried by a massive pile of baseball wrongs.

“I hope we get it back on track,” slugger Adam Dunn said Monday. “It was miserable. One of my most miserable seasons.”

Almost to a man, that viewpoint is shared among those who were on the Sox last season.

“It’s good that people feel that way, not forgetting how bad it felt to get killed every day, finding every single day a way to lose a game as opposed to finding a way to win,” Dunn said. “The coaches are empha-

sizing stuff that needs to be emphasized, which is boring and monotonous and stuff you’ve known since you were 4 years old, but it’s good. Apparently, people didn’t realize it. So that’s good.”

When one veteran pitcher, who is no longer with the team, made wisecracks about the monotony of pitchers taking fielding practice during camp last year, not much was thought of it. But when that same pitcher misplayed a bunt during a game in May, the coaching staff’s reaction was something like, “Well, there you have it.”

Nobody is joking about fielding practice this year.

“How I look at it is, you take a positive from every situation,” third-base coach Joe McEwing said. “And you learn from it. What we dealt with last year, it’s over. It was a tough year for every single one of us. You have to look at

the positive, see our mistakes, learn from it and move on.”

Manager Robin Ventura said the message from the coaching staff is “a little more forceful this year.”

“They understand it just has to be better,” Ventura said. “I think they understand there’s probably more work going into this year. Not just the physical stuff, but getting your mind right when we’re going out on defense and why it’s important.”

And then there’s baserunning. The Sox were caught in enough rundowns and thrown out at third on enough grounders to the shortstop last season to produce a comedy feature.

“There’s a way to get thrown out, and there are dumb ways to get thrown out,” Ventura said. “Eventually, you’re going to get thrown out.

Hopefully those are aggressive ones and you’re not making silly outs.”

MLB

Exceptions made to collisions rule

By RONALD BLUM The Associated Press NEW YORK – Rather than ban home plate collisions outright, Major League Baseball and its players adopted a rule limiting them this season.

In what both sides said was a one-year experiment, the rule allows collisions if the catcher has the ball and is blocking the runner’s direct path to home plate, and if the catcher goes into the basepath to field a throw to the plate.

“It’s not a radical departure from what it had been,” Tampa Bay Rays manager Joe Maddon said.

The new rule, 7.13, states “a runner attempting to score may not deviate from his direct pathway to the plate in order to initiate contact with the catcher (or other player covering home plate).” A runner violating the rule shall be declared out, even if the fielder drops the ball.

“It’s good, I think it takes away the malicious intent behind the play at the plate,” Texas Rangers catcher J.P. Arencibia said. “Obviously, the runner doesn’t always have to slide, and the catcher still has the ability to block the plate once he has the ball in hand.”

Along with the rule, the sides agreed to a pair of comments umpires use for interpretation. The first comment says “the failure by the runner to make an effort to touch the plate, the runner’s lowering of the shoulder, or the runner’s pushing through with his hands, elbows or arms, would support a determination that the runner deviated from the pathway in order to initiate contact with the catcher in violation.” The comment says players who slide appropriately are not in violation of the rule.

The second comment says that “unless the catcher is in possession of the ball, the catcher cannot block the pathway of the runner as he is attempting to score.” The runner shall be declared safe if the catcher violates that provision. In addition, it is not a violation “if the catcher blocks the pathway of the runner in order to field a throw, and the umpire determines that the catcher could not have fielded the ball without blocking the pathway of the runner and that contact with the runner was unavoidable.”

“There are some things that often times can make the water a little muddy,” union head Tony Clark said after meeting with the New York Yankees. “Over the course of the offseason, the concern was protecting players, but trying to draw up something that not only made sense on paper, but also was going to make sense to the players that were playing on the field.”

The umpire crew chief can use the new video-review system to determine whether the rule was violated.

“It stops guys just going out of their way just to try to dislodge the baseball when [catchers] have the plate,” Texas Rangers manager Ron Washington said.

Debate over plate collisions has intensified since May 2011, when San Francisco’s Buster Posey was injured as the Marlins’ Scott Cousins crashed into him at the plate. Posey, an All-Star catcher, suffered a broken bone in his lower left leg and three torn ligaments in his ankle, an injury that ended his season.

“I think it’s fair. A runner’s path is to home plate,” Oakland catcher Derek Norris said. “Any deviation and he’s not trying to score, he’s trying to harm.”

Curling hats take off in Sochi

By KEVIN DRULEY kdruley@shawmedia.com By his own admission, Keir Kurinsky hated school and “barely graduated” from St. Charles High in 1992.

Turns out one piece of advice from late business teacher Steve Mahoney still stuck.

“I remember listening to him in high school going, ‘You’re never going to work for somebody. You’re going to do your own thing,’ ” Kurinsky said. “Yeah, it was in high school that I knew that I couldn’t work for anybody and that I had to work for myself.”

Kurinsky began his entrepreneurship by hatching Sillycone Inc., a company that manufactures silicone baking and freezing molds. He extended it to curling years later. Kurinsky’s foam hats shaped like curling stones picked up steam in the recently completed Winter Olympics, proving that Mr. Rockhead isn’t just a Flintstones character.

“It just blew up,” Kurinsky said. “We sold probably over 10,000 hats during the span of two weeks during the Olympics.”

The hats, made of rigid foam and similar to the texture of a Green Bay Packers cheesehead, retail at $29.99 plus shipping and are available for purchase online at gocurling.com.

Kurinsky, who works from his home in Bay Village, Ohio, outside Cleveland, has distributors in Canada and Europe, where the sport is more popular. The hats are made in China. Models come complete with blue, green, red or yellow handles on top.

Some fans create custom designs on the side of the stones. The hats sported by Canadian hockey players such as the Blackhawks’ Jonathan Toews and Vancouver’s Roberto Luongo during a Team Canada curling match this month fit the mold.

Inspiration struck Kurinsky in 2002, when he traveled from his then-hometown of Phoenix to the Winter Games in Salt Lake City.

He was there to honor his heritage and see Team Slovakia play hockey. Then someone slid him a curling ticket and another idea surfaced.

Kurinsky since has created curling stone ice trays, which are sold online and in some retail outlets in Canada. He has seen his share of the country since the hats took hold – about 100,000 have sold worldwide since 2007-08 – and fondly recalls Canada’s curling clubs, comparing their interiors to country clubs.

“It’s just such a unique sport and the fans are a unique group of individuals that just like to have fun and a good time,” Kurinsky

said.

Hand Kurinsky a Dos Equis and he might just rival a certain beer pitchman in the realm of riveting people. Named for actor Keir Dullea – Kurinsky’s mother, Cathy, is fond of “2001: A Space Odyssey” – Kurinsky moved around until coincidentally settling outside Dullea’s hometown of Cleveland.

In high school, Kurinsky inputted obituaries, birth announcements and engagements part-time for the St. Charles Republican, and not usually with a straight face.

He said he was fired for tampering with some of those items, with pranks such as inserting names of popular St. Charles High couples among those welcoming new children.

Like many, Kurinsky fully grew up when he became a father himself. In 2012, he and his 1-yearold daughter, Ada, were named Cleveland Indians fans of the year for attending at least a few innings of each of the club’s 81 home games.

Kurinsky’s parents still live in St. Charles, where foam curling hats partially got their start, at least in principle.

Almost a quarter-century after fudging birth announcements, Kurinsky is working for himself, armed with ideas that quickly came of age.

Notre Dame guard Watt recalls trips to Bears training camp

By ADAM L. JAHNS ajahns@suntimes.com INDIANAPOLIS – Chris Watt vividly recalls the trips with his father and uncles to the Bears’ old training camp in Platteville, Wis., notably his interaction with former linebacker Brian Urlacher.

NFL COMBINE

Sooners’ Ikard has connection to Bears

By ADAM L. JAHNS ajahns@suntimes.com INDIANAPOLIS – Football was only part of the conversation when Oklahoma center Gabe Ikard had a one-on-one chat with Bears offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer at the NFL Combine.

“My meeting with coach Kromer at the combine was very laid back,” Ikard told the Sun-Times. “We talked about his Gabe Ikard family, my family and told some pretty entertaining stories.”

Why would Kromer entertain such a cordial visit?

If the Bears are unable to re-sign center Roberto Garza – “It’s a tough business,” coach Marc Trestman said when asked about the pending free agent at the combine – there will be a considerable hole right in the middle of it.

The Bears re-signed center Taylor Boggs (along with safety Derrick Martin) to a one-year contract Monday. But Boggs – who made his NFL debut last season – may not develop into the long-term solution.

Even if Garza is re-signed, an eventual successor for him must be found, especially with the rest of the starters on the offensive line (Jermon Bushrod, Matt Slauson, Kyle Long and Jordan Mills) in place together for at least the next three seasons.

“I am aware of the Bears’ need for a [guard/center] and I made it very clear to coach Kromer that I would love to play for him,” Ikard said. “It would be an honor to play for the most storied program in professional football history.”

Kromer is very familiar with Ikard, who started 50 of 52 career games and was a threetime first-team All-Big 12 selection.

Kromer’s son, Zach, is a student-coach at Oklahoma and Ikard said they have a “good friendship outside of football.”

Ikard first met Kromer when he was with the New Orleans Saints through former Oklahoma offensive line coach James Patton, a close friend of Kromer’s.

Ikard might be best known for his part in Oklahoma’s innocent “PastaGate,” where the school’s compliance department self-reported an NCAA secondary violation in which three student-athletes were served “excessive” pasta at graduation banquet last May. “We had to donate $5 to a charity in order to make sure we were eligible to play for the 2013 season,” the 6-foot-4, 304-pounder said. “I chose to donate to the Lupus Foundation of America because one of my closest friends, Daniel Orton, lost his mother to Lupus when we were seniors in high school.”

The media ate up “PastaGate” and Ikard ended up receiving hundreds of dollars worth of food from Olive Garden to share with other players at the combine.

“The president of Olive Garden, Dave George, actually called me and wished me luck the night before the combine drills,” Ikard said. “PastaGate has been really entertaining for everyone involved and brought some much needed humor to a very stressful process.”

“It’s funny,” the Notre Dame guard said during the NFL Combine. “I got a picture with [Urlacher] his rookie year up in Platteville, and I remember the next year when I had the picture blown up and wanted to get it autographed by him. I brought it up to him, and he said, ‘Wow, I look pretty

[ticked] off in this picture. I’m looking pretty sad. It must have been the end of camp.’ ” Watt, a former standout at Glenbard West in Glen Ellyn, will be at his first NFL training camp soon enough.

After being a stalwart on Notre Dame’s offensive line the last three seasons – which

included starting 34 consecutive games at left guard – Watt is projected to go in the third or fourth round in the draft in May. According to NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock, Watt, who’s 6-foot-2, 310 pounds, is the fourth-best guard prospect.

Watt prides himself on his

knowledge of blocking, detailing the subtle angles needed to handle linebackers. He’s also OK if a switch to center is needed, citing previous experience.

But “I’m a physical finisher,” said Watt, a team leader at Notre Dame. “If you’re going to talk to anyone, they’re going to tell you that. I’m tough, and

I bring a great mind-set and work ethic to the game.”

An MCL sprain suffered Nov. 30 at Stanford kept Watt out of the Pinstripe Bowl and limited him at the combine.

He took part in only two drills, benching 225 pounds 29 times and running the 40-yard dash in 5.50 seconds.

Tips for treating dry skin Most people experience dry skin in the winter because during this time, skin doesn’t produce enough moisture to compensate for the drier air and lack of moisture.

Dry skin patches can develop into a more serious inflammation called dermatitis, and once the protective skin is disrupted by dermatitis, it is more susceptible to bacterial, yeast or fungal infections and allergic reactions.

Despite the harsh winter elements, you can carry out a skin care regimen that will help you avoid dry, cracked and uncomfortable skin: • Keep bathing or showering to 10 minutes, using warm – not hot – water.

Hot water can dry out your skin by allowing moisture to escape, while breaking down the lipid barriers.

• Use mild soaps or soapfree cleansers. Many soaps strip important lipids and oils from the outermost layer of skin and often can contain ingredients that are damaging to the skin.

• Avoid excessive handwashing or excessive use of hand sanitizers. Alcoholbased sanitizer in particular can be very tough on skin because it dissolves oil, which can leave the skin feeling dry, chapped and irritable.

• Moisturize thoroughly after bathing or handwashing, while skin is wet, with an ointment, cream or lotion.

Other causes of dry skin at this time of year include certain fabrics commonly found in warm winter clothing, such as wool, and central heating systems in homes, which can reduce the humidity in the air and dry out the skin. Humidifiers are useful devices because they increase moisture levels in the air.

Keeping your lower body in shape despite the cold

By WAYNE L. WESTCOTT More Content Now Many people forgo their outdoor physical activities during the winter months due to cold temperatures, snow and ice.

These same factors discourage others from going to the gym when the weather conditions are imposing.

For those who do not have home treadmills, steppers or stationary cycles, it therefore may be difficult to maintain well-conditioned leg muscles. If you are in this category, let me recommend four athome exercises that can keep your lower body in great shape this winter.

I suggest you perform the Big Four Leg Exercises in the following sequence, and do not add the final component (rope jump) until your legs are ready for this sustained ballistic activity.

Begin with your body weight, and gradually add resistance by holding a dumbbell in each hand as you perform the exercises. When you can complete 15 good repetitions (moderate movement speed and full movement range), increase the resistance by 1 to 3 pounds (per dumbbell).

Try to do these exercises three non-consecutive days each week, but two weekly training sessions also will be effective.

All exercises can be done with or without weights.

Wayne L. Westcott, Ph.D., teaches exercise science and directs the Health & Fitness Center at Quincy College in Massachusetts. He has authored 25 books on physical fitness.

Squat

Step-up

Stand erect with feet slightly wider than shoulder width, arms at sides (with or without dumbbells). Keep your knees directly above your feet as you slowly lower your hips downward and backward until your thighs are about parallel to the floor. Return to your standing position by slowly extending your knees and hips. Breathe in during the downward movement and breathe out during the upward movement. Use a resistance that fatigues your thigh muscles within 10 to 15 repetitions.

Stand erect in front of a firm bench or step with arms at sides (with or without dumbbells).

Step up with your right foot, followed by your left foot. Step down with your right foot, followed by your left foot. Keep your torso erect and breathe continuously throughout the exercise. Use a resistance that fatigues your thigh muscle within 10 to 15 full up and down cycles. Be sure to use a step or bench that does not require you to lift your knee above hip level. Change your lead leg every workout.

Lunge Begin the stationary lunge by standing with your right foot about 3 feet in front of your left foot, with arms at sides (with or without dumbbells). Slowly lower your hips downward until your right thigh is parallel to the floor and your left knee is near the floor. Return to your starting position by extending your knees and hips. Breathe in during the downward movement and breathe out during the upward movement.

Use a resistance that fatigues your thigh muscles within 10 to 15 repetitions. Change your forward leg every workout.

CHILDREN’S HEALTH

Cabin fever Sometimes cabin fever is too much to bear and you have to get out of the house.

As long as the weather allows for safe travel, bundle up the kids and hop in the car in search of an indoor adventure.

Find an indoor pool at a local recreation center.

Take a trip to an indoor ice skating or roller skating rink. You also can start a bowling tournament with other families.

Jump rope – not just for kids If you would like to do an exercise that enhances both leg muscle endurance and cardiovascular endurance, consider concluding your conditioning session with some rope jumping. If you don’t have room to actually jump rope, perform simulated jumping. Simply hold both ends of the rope in one hand and swing the rope on one side of your body.

Begin by jogging in place (warm-up), and then jump in place each time the rope touches the floor. Switch hands and swing the rope on the other side of your body, still jumping in rhythm with the rope touches. This simulated

jumping provides excellent exercise, without the possibility of tripping on a rope passing under your feet.

Depending on your rope-jumping intensity and duration, you can make this more of a power exercise or more of an endurance activity. For example, if you do one-minute intervals alternating higher-effort and lowereffort jumping, you emphasize muscle strength and power. However, if you jump at a moderate effort level for five or more minutes continuously, you emphasize muscle endurance, as well as some cardiovascular endurance.

A more advanced backward lunge requires good balance and more leg strength. Begin by standing tall with your feet together, and arms at sides (with or without dumbbells). Step backward with your left foot (about 3 feet) so that your right thigh is parallel to the floor and your left knee is near the floor. Return to your starting position by extending your knees and hips.

Breathe in during your downward movement and breathe out during the upward movement. Use a resistance that fatigues your thigh muscles within 10 to 15 repetitions. Change your forward leg every workout. You may also perform a forward lunge, stepping forward with your right foot. Just be sure to step far enough forward that your foot is slightly in front of your knee. In each of the lunge exercises, if you prefer to perform two sets, do one set with your right foot forward and one set with your left foot forward. Doing this ensures equal emphasis on the front thigh and rear thigh muscles in both legs.

Enjoy life, and live healthier and longer For a variety of reasons, many people do not enjoy life. This is not only sad, but a recent article says it also may be hazardous to their health.

It’s not always easy to enjoy life, especially if you have depression, are chronically ill, unhappy with your family situation or job, have financial problems – and the list goes on and on.

Although it is frequently difficult to overcome the causes of unhappiness, it’s well worth the effort. Not only will the person feel better, but it also may have a positive impact on the indi-

VIEWS Dr. Murray Feingold vidual’s physical health.

A recent study determined if enjoying life had a positive effect on a person’s physical health and if it also helped him or her to age better. More than 3,000 men and women older than 60 were followed for eight years.

Studies were done to determine participants’ attitudes toward life – did they enjoy life or were they unhappy with life?

Also determined was the speed at which they walked.

The reason for this was studies have shown walking speed is a good measure of a person’s functional ability, a measure of their balance and an indicator of their future health status.

Results showed people who enjoyed life had a slower rate of losing their abilities to do things physically. They were less likely to develop certain physical impairments of daily living, such as difficulty getting in and out of bed or getting dressed. They also had less of a decrease in their walk-

ing speed compared with individuals who did not enjoy life as much, indicating they could function better.

Those who enjoyed life less had a three-times-greater risk of impairment of their daily living activities.

The importance of enjoying life is certainly not a new concept, although it may be elusive. This does not mean you should not try.

There are various sayings about enjoying life such as, “Take time to stop and smell the roses.” Author Samuel Butler wrote, “Most people have never learned that one of the main aims in life is to

enjoy it.” And then there are the lyrics of a Bob Marley song, “In every life we have some trouble, when you worry you make it double, so don’t worry, be happy.”

Sometimes easier said than done.

Wrestling to Beat the Streets goes to the mat for students

By LENNY BERNSTEIN The Washington Post It wasn’t all that long ago Jake Scott was a sophomore at Suitland High School in Maryland, going nowhere.

The youngest of 17 children in a family where no one went to college, he had one thing going for him: He was a big, strong guy, big enough to play on the football team.

One day a classmate asked him to think about joining the wrestling team, which needed someone in Scott’s weight class.

Scott checked out a practice and fell in love with a sport few African Americans even consider.

His GPA went from 2.0 to 3.9. He earned a scholarship to American University in Washington and rose to become the 10th-ranked college wrestler in the United States in the 191-pound class. He became a math teacher and the head wrestling coach at Montgomery Blair High School in Silver Spring, Md. He has written a children’s book and has been featured in the media for setting math instruction to rap music.

Now he is back in an inner-city gym with a bunch of adolescents who two months ago didn’t know a single-leg takedown from a wrestling singlet.

“Wrestling was, for me, a life-changer,” Scott said. “I grew up in Capitol Heights, Maryland, and had my fair share of run-ins with hard times and bad actions. It was wrestling that saved me from the streets. So this is personal for me.”

Personal means working at Cesar Chavez Prep charter school in Washington, where Scott is one of four coaches leading the new Wrestling to Beat the Streets DC program for sixththrough ninth-graders.

The school is 72 percent Latino, an ethnic group that is even less a part of this white, blue-collar sport than blacks are. Many come from the same difficult circumstances that Scott faced; 94

“The fact that they can go to a competition and have their hand raised and do well ... is huge from a lifechanging perspective and from a self-esteem standpoint,” said Jordan Lipp, another former American University wrestler and a coach in the program.

On Jan. 25, nine members of the team competed in their first match and came away with seven medals.

“I get to take my anger out,” 12-year-old Marc Anthony Rondon said at a practice when I asked him what he liked about wrestling.

Rondon had placed third in the 99-pound division at the tournament several days earlier.

“It gives me something to do and keeps me out of trouble,” said Unique Henson, a 15-year-old ninth-grader who wrestles at 135 pounds.

Scott gathered about 20 boys and five girls in a circle around him that day as he and another coach, Max Meltzer, a former Harvard wrestler, taught them a lesson about maintaining their balance while throwing an opponent off his. The tactics are important, but at

this stage, the main lessons are physical conditioning – practice can include 100 push-ups and endurance exercises such as carrying another wrestler across the floor – and life skills: discipline, accountability, respect and hard work, Meltzer said.

“On a football team,” Scott said, “there are 10 other guys on my team, 11 other guys on the other team and three or four referees who we could blame our shortcomings on. With wrestling, it’s you, your opponent and one referee. The chances of your mistakes falling through the cracks are very slim.”

Beat the Streets wrestling began in New York, the idea of Mike Novogratz, an investment banker and former Princeton wrestler.

It has spread to other cities, including Baltimore and Los Angeles. After the New York organization staged exhibitions in Times Square and at Grand Central Station last year, Washington wrestlers decided to form a chapter and began meeting to decide where to start.

One of the men involved was Scott Forrester, whose

company was completing the construction of a new gym at Cesar Chavez. The school also had an internal champion for the idea, Vice Principal Bob McCarty.

Both are former wrestlers.

The school seemed a natural place for the first chapter.

Robert Brams, a former Muhlenberg College wrestler and a lawyer who represented USA Wrestling’s successful bid to help get wrestling back into the 2020 and 2024 Olympic Games, became president. The Washington chapter is trying to raise money and awareness for a planned expansion in the fall.

One day after practice began in December, Scott sent the team out for a three-minute water break. At the time limit, one wrestler was back.

Scott sent him to collect the others and told him to not to return until everyone else had.

“Most kids, they don’t feel responsible for someone else,” he said. “You’re giving them an opportunity to exercise some leadership.

“Wrestling is what taught me about discipline and punctuality and not making excuses.”

Middle age at ... 53?

By MARGARET SHAPIRO The Washington Post How do you know you’re middle-aged? How about when you wear clothes and shoes based on comfort rather than style, or grow hair in all the wrong places: nose, ears, eyebrows? Those are just two of the signs mentioned in a recent British survey about when middle age begins and how to identify it.

The 2,000 people surveyed

by Benenden, a health-care and insurance firm, also made clear middle age was no longer something for 30- or 40-yearolds to worry about. The life change, they said, began at 53.

In fact, nearly half of the olderthan-50s who were surveyed said they personally had not experienced “middle age” yet.

“A variety of factors – including more active lifestyles and healthier living – mean people find their attitudes towards getting older are changing. Over half of the people surveyed didn’t feel that there even was such a thing as ‘middle age’ anymore,” Paul Keenan, head of communications at Benenden Health, said in a statement when the survey was released.

“Being ‘old’ appears to be a state of mind rather than being a specific age,” he added.

“People no longer see ‘middle age’ as a numerical milestone and don’t tend to think of themselves as ‘old’ as they hit their 50s and beyond. I’m 54 myself, with the mind-set of a thirtysomething – perhaps sometimes even that of a teenager.”

So beyond comfort shoes and ear hair, what are some signs that you’re no longer young? Here’s the list offered up by respondents to the survey. Some are particularly British (e.g., joining the National Trust). But you’ll get the point.

• Losing touch with everyday technology such as tablets and TVs • Finding you have no idea what “young people” are talking about • Feeling stiff • Needing an afternoon nap • Groaning when you bend down • Not remembering the name of any modern bands • Talking a lot about your joints/ailments • Hating noisy pubs • Getting more hairy – ears, eyebrows, nose, face, etc.

• Thinking policemen/ teachers/doctors look really young • Preferring a night in with a board game than a night on the town • You don’t know any songs in the top 10 • Choosing clothes and shoes for comfort rather than style • Taking a flask of tea on a day out • Obsessive gardening or bird feeding • Forgetting people’s names • Booking a cruise • Misplacing your glasses, bag, car keys, etc.

• Complaining about the rubbish on television these days • Getting bed socks for Christmas and being very grateful • Taking a keen interest in “The Antiques Road Show” • When you start complaining about more things • Joining the National Trust • Being told off for politically incorrect opinions • Flogging (selling) the family car for something sportier • When you can’t lose 6 pounds in two days anymore • You get shocked by how racy music videos are • Buying travel sweets for the car • Considering going on a “no children” cruise for a holiday • When you know your alcohol limit • Obsessively recycling/ knowing the collection dates • Always carrying a handy pack of tissues • Falling asleep after one glass of wine • Spending more money on face creams/anti-aging products • Preferring a Sunday walk to a lie-in By comparison to those who participated in the British survey, Americans have a different take on when middle age begins, at least according to a paper published in 2011 by researchers at Florida State University.

That study, which used nationally representative data collected in 1995-1996 and 2004-2006, showed the perceived beginning of middle age varied, not surprisingly, depending on the age group that was providing the estimate. Overall, the researchers said, most people think of middle age as beginning at 44 and ending at 60.

Program for compulsive eaters Regular eye examinations can creates new outlook on life catch many diseases early Dear Abby: I’d like to tell your readers about a wonderful program I discovered about a year ago. It’s called Overeaters Anonymous (OA). The program is similar to AA, but it’s for people with an eating problem.

For years, I struggled to lose weight. I tried dozens of diets and pills and saw several doctors. I would lose some weight, but I never could stick with a program, so I gained back more than I lost. I felt like a loser.

I was a food junkie. I ate when I was happy, sad, depressed, bored or lonely.

I would buy candy at the checkout counter at the market and eat it on the way home. Then I’d hide the wrapper in the garage so my family wouldn’t know I ate it.

I hid candy in the kitchen cabinets so no one would find it, then I’d sneak in and eat it later. I never could have only one serving size of chips or cookies. I would consume half a bag before I stopped.

Since joining OA, I have lost more than 50 pounds, and I feel like a new person.

I have a new outlook on life and no longer have to rely on food. It’s good to be able to talk with people who have the same problems I do. It’s a daily struggle, but I have a sponsor and others to talk to when I’m tempted to return to my old life.

Compulsive eating is a

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips disease, Abby. And unless people have it, they don’t understand. I hope this letter will help someone who also is struggling. – Grateful OA

Member In Illinois Dear Grateful: I’m glad you found OA. It’s a wonderful organization that has been around for many years.

About 20 years ago, I was fortunate to meet the woman who founded it – and she was a doll – and I know the program has helped many thousands of people. Often, when a person has weight issues, it is less about what he or she is eating than it is what is eating the person.

Readers, OA has about 6,500 groups in more than 75 countries. There are no requirements for membership except a sincere desire to stop eating compulsively.

Everyone is there to offer mutual support. I have attended some of the meetings, and there is no weighing and no embarrassment. There is only a fellowship of compassionate people who share a common problem.

There are OA chapters everywhere, but if you have trouble locating one, go to www.oa.org, or send a long, self-addressed stamped envelope to Overeaters Anonymous World Service,

P.O. Box 44020, Rio Rancho, NM 87174-4020. The email address is info@oa.org.

Dear Abby: Because of finances, I still live with my ex-partner. We have been friends for 15 years. We split all the bills, and for the most part we get along quite well.

One thing has been bothering me, though. How should I handle things when he brings home a date? I am aware he becomes intimate, and occasionally it becomes quite loud. I have talked to him about this, and he says I should turn up the TV. I have asked him if he wants me to leave for the night to give him privacy. The answer is no, it doesn’t bother him if I stay, but it becomes uncomfortable for me.

How should I approach this in an adult manner?

I love him dearly, but this is very awkward. – Embar-

rassed Dear Embarrassed: It is laudable you and your former partner are on such good terms. Out of consideration for you, why doesn’t he plan to stay at his date’s home or apartment whenever possible? If it isn’t possible, ask him to let you know beforehand so you can make arrangements to be elsewhere for the night.

I think you’d both sleep better.

Dear Dr. K: How often should I have my eyes examined? What will the doctor check for during the exam?

Dear Reader: Routine examinations in people without known eye diseases, and who don’t have hereditary eye diseases in their families, usually are done by optometrists. They also can be done by ophthalmologists (doctors who specialize in eye diseases).

You should have your eyes examined every two to four years between the ages of 40 and 64, and then every one to two years after that.

But this is just a general recommendation, as no one size fits all. You may need more frequent eye exams depending on your personal or family medical history. (On my website, www.askdoctork.com, I’ve put a table showing how often you should see an eye doctor.)

The exam usually starts with vision tests. First, you’re asked to look at rows of letters and numbers that keep getting smaller until you can no longer see them clearly. If you do not have optimal vision (20/20), the doctor will test whether different lenses can sharpen

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff your vision and make it 20/20. That’s the basis for fitting you with corrective lenses (normal glasses or contact lenses).

The doctor also will evaluate your peripheral, or side, vision. Your color vision and depth perception also may be evaluated.

After testing how well you see, the doctor will begin to examine your eyes themselves. First comes an examination of your outer eye. The doctor will look for signs of any underlying problems, such as infections, sties, cysts, tumors or lid muscle weakness. Do your pupils react normally to light? Do your two eyes move together in a coordinated fashion?

Then comes an examination of the inside of your eye as seen through your pupil. The more wide open the pupil is, the easier it is to see inside the eye. For that reason, the doctor will apply eye drops to dilate your pupils.

First, the doctor examines the lens, which sits

just behind the pupil. Is it crystal clear or does it have areas that are cloudy or opaque (called cataracts)?

Then there’s the fluid inside the eye. Does it have foreign particles or floaters?

Next comes the retina, a flat layer of cells in the back of the eye. The image formed as light enters your eye is focused on the retina.

Does it have deposits or hemorrhages? Does it have abnormal fragile young blood vessels? Is the nerve that connects the retina to the brain normal?

Finally, eye pressure is measured to detect signs of glaucoma. This can be done with an “air puff” test. Alternatively, after your eye is numbed with anesthetic drops, the doctor will gently touch your cornea with an instrument to measure the eye’s internal pressure.

A regular eye exam is simple and painless. It can protect your sight by improving your vision through prescription lenses and by catching eye diseases early.

Stonewall Jackson, the Confederate general who died of pneumonia at only 39, said, “Always mystify, mislead and surprise the enemy if possible.”

That certainly applies to bridge players, especially when the declarer. (It is usually dangerous for a defender to mislead his partner.)

In this deal, South is in four hearts. Which card should declarer play at trick one after West leads the spade ace and East drops the four?

South knows that East has just played a singleton (unless West made an unusual overcall in a four-card suit). But West does not know that.

Suppose South plays his spade seven. Then West will know it is safe to cash his spade king, because East would not have dropped the four from 10-4-2. And the same applies if South follows suit with his 10.

Instead, South must play his two. Then West will wonder if East started with 10-7-4.

Yes, West might still get it right, thinking that East would have raised to two spades with three trumps and forgetting that the auction suggests

East has a very weak hand.

But West will be nervous about leading the spade king at trick two, lest South ruff it and later get a critical discard on dummy’s spade queen.

As you can see, if West continues spades, the defenders take two spades, one spade ruff and the club king to defeat the contract. If West does anything else, the contract makes.

If declarer is trying to disrupt the opponents’ signals, he should copy their methods.

He should play low to try to discourage a continuation, or vice versa.
