Parolee in fatal crash faces DUI Walter Depner was convicted in 1999 Lakemoor-area wreck that killed 4 By SARAH SUTSCHEK ssutschek@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Still on parole after serving more than a decade behind bars for a drunken crash that left a woman

and her three children dead, Walter Depner was arrested Sunday evening and charged with DUI. At 6:17 p.m., members of the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched

for a well-being check on a person who reportedly drove off the road in the area of 905 W. Rand Road/Route 120 near Lakemoor. While deputies were en route, a second call was re-

ceived about a man in a nearby home in the 500 block of North Boulevard. The homeowner said that Depner, 61, now of Mount Prospect, pulled his vehicle into the driveway, walked into the house, and

then sat on the couch. The homeowner recognized Depner as someone who used to live in the neighborhood.

Walter Depner was arrested Sunday and charged with DUI.

Illinois’ bills may hit $22B by 2018 By SARA BURNETT The Associated Press

McHenry County Right to Carry Association president Michael Schuch spoke Monday at an open meeting of the association to give residents an update on firearms legislation at the Woodstock VFW.

Training important for weapons owners, county group advocate says By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Frances Colon was named after her grandmother. The 18-year-old Chicago woman was shot in Humboldt Park about a week and a half ago, the president of the McHenry County Right To Carry Association said.

Michael Schuch introduced the elder Frances Colon, a longtime family friend, to a group of about 50 who gathered at the Woodstock Veterans of Foreign Wars post Monday evening for an update on what’s happening with concealed carry in Illinois. “That young girl, perhaps she could have had a chance to defend herself, but

by the laws of Chicago, by the laws of Illinois, she was naked on the street against a grown man,” Schuch said. Colon, who lives about two blocks from where her granddaughter was fatally shot in the back, was visiting the family and wanted to come hear Schuch speak, she

CHICAGO – Illinois’ backlog of unpaid bills will reach nearly $22 billion within five years if lawmakers don’t take action to fix the state’s worstin-the-nation pension crisis, according to an analysis released Monday by a Chicagobased watchdog group. The report from the Civic Federation notes some improvement since last year, when it was forecasting a $35 billion backlog in overdue bills. The improved outlook is largely because of $1.6 billion in Medicaid cuts Gov. Pat Quinn signed into law last year. But the overall financial picture remains dire, with annual payments toward Illinois’ $97 billion unfunded pension liability threatening to “swamp all of state government,” Civic Federation President Laurence Msall said. This year, the state’s annual pension payment is about $5.1 billion, or roughly 22.1 percent of the state’s general fund. The payment will grow to $7 billion – or nearly 31 percent of all general funds – by 2018 without pension reform, the analysis found. That would mean even less money would be available for the state to pay its bills. Currently, the backlog is $7.8 billion. An increase to $21.7 billion by 2018 could mean health care providers, nursing homes and other

Passing concealed carry won’t be easy Illinois House Democrats were told during a private caucus meeting in Springfield last week that, despite what Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez says, inaction on concealed carry would have very serious consequences. As you most assuredly already know, a federal appellate court has given the General Assembly until June 8 to pass a new law allowing some form of public carrying of loaded weapons. After that deadline, Illinois’ laws against public carrying would be struck down. Illinois is the only state in the nation that totally bars concealed or open carry by citizens. However, an aide to Alvarez told the House Judiciary Committee last week that the federal appellate ruling means nothing to the state. Paul Castiglione, a representative of Alvarez, dropped a bomb during a House Judiciary Committee hearing called to discuss concealed carry when he declared that until the U.S. or Illinois Supreme courts rule, the appellate decision is “not binding” on the state. “Only the Illinois Supreme Court can declare a statute from this body to be unconstitutional,” Castiglione told the committee’s members. He also took aim at warnings by the Na-

8LOTTERY

CAPITOL EFFECTS Rich Miller tional Rifle Association that if no new concealed carry law is put into place before the deadline, then gun owners would be free to carry assault rifles down Michigan Avenue. Castiglione insisted that his office would continue to enforce the current law. “Anyone who decides, for example, to walk down Michigan Avenue in Chicago carrying an AK-15 [sic] would be subject to arrest and prosecution,” he said. But that’s not how the House Democratic legal staff sees the world. At one point during that closeddoor Democratic caucus meeting, Rep. Ken Dunkin, D-Chicago, rose to ask whether staff was claiming that if nothing passes the General Assembly, then after June 8 he could legally carry a loaded semi-automatic rifle into the Statehouse. “Yes,” he was told. A stunned silence fell over the caucus meeting, said several House Democrats who attended. “I think they finally get it now,” one pro-gun House Democrat said. Some historically anti-gun mem-

bers talked after the committee about how they now need to vote for a concealed carry bill. So, Dunkin’s question and the answer given appear to have worked. At least for now, quite a lot of members are not willing to kick this particular can down the road. Trouble is, Secretary of State Jesse White’s office says no way will they allow people to walk into the Statehouse with a gun, regardless of what happens this spring. They believe they have statutory authority to back them up, and White controls access to the Capitol Building, so he should know. White has long been a gun-control proponent. In fact, according to a recent poll by the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute, he’s in the mainstream of Illinois thought on this topic. The survey found that 72 percent of Illinoisans believe that “laws covering the sale of firearms should be made more strict,” while just 2.2 percent said they should be less strict. An additional 21 percent said they should remain the same and 4 percent didn’t know. According to the Institute, even 66 percent of downstate voters, 55 percent of conservatives, and 55 percent of Republicans favor stricter gun control in Illinois.

One issue pushed by liberals is banning high-capacity ammunition magazines of more than 10 rounds, and the poll found that 63 percent wanted that done. Just 33 percent opposed the idea. According to the poll, 52 percent of downstaters support the ban (42 percent oppose), as well as 46 percent of conservatives (46 percent oppose) and 44 percent of Republicans (50 percent oppose). Sixty-eight percent of women and 58 percent of men favor the ban, the poll found. And a clear plurality of 49.7 percent said they believed the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment does not include the right to carry a concealed weapon in public, while just 39.5 percent said it does and 11 percent didn’t know. However, 50 percent of downstaters said the Second Amendment does include this right, while 36 percent said it doesn’t. Sixty-eight percent of Democrats says it doesn’t include the right, while 62 percent of Republicans says it does, showing a very significant partisan divide. A carry law has to be passed, but as that poll clearly shows, it ain’t gonna be easy.

Jobless, cities may be first to feel budget pain By ANDREW TAYLOR and JIM KUHNHENN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Who’ll be the first to feel the sting? Jobless Americans who have been out of work for a long time and local governments that are paying off loans to fix roads and schools are in tough spots when it comes to the automatic federal budget cuts that are scheduled to kick in Friday. About 2 million longterm unemployed people could see checks now averaging $300 a week reduced by about $30. There could also be reductions in federal payments that subsidize clean energy, school construction and state

and local public works projects. Low-income Americans seeking heating assistance or housing or other aid might encounter longer waits. Government employees could get furlough notices as early as next week, though cuts in their work hours won’t occur until April. The timing of the “sequester” spending cuts has real consequences for Americans, but it also has a political ramifications. How quickly and fiercely the public feels the cuts could determine whether President Barack Obama and lawmakers seek to replace them with a different deficit reduction plan. Eager to put pressure on Republican lawmakers to ac-

cept his blend of targeted cuts and tax increases Obama has been highlighting the impact of the automatic cuts in grim terms. He did it again on Monday, declaring the threat of the cuts is already h a r m i n g t h e Barack national econ- Obama omy. Republicans say he is exaggerating and point to rates of spending, even after the cuts, that would be higher than in 2008 when adjusted for inflation. All Obama has to do to avoid the damage, House Speaker John Boehner said at the Capitol, is agree to the GOP’s recommended spend-

ing cuts – with no tax increases. By all accounts, most of the pain of the $85 billion in spending reductions to this year’s federal budget would be slow in coming. The dire John consequences Boehner that Obama officials say Americans will encounter – from airport delays and weakened borders to reduced parks programs and shuttered meatpacking plants – would unfold over time as furloughs kick in and agencies begin to adjust to their spending reductions. “These impacts will not all

be felt on day one,” Obama acknowledged in a meeting with governors at the White House on Monday. “But rest assured the uncertainty is already having an effect.” Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano warned that the federal government would be unable to “maintain the same level of security at all places around the country” once the automatic cuts began to take effect. The public will feel the results “in the next few weeks,” she said, and “it will keep growing.” The majority of the federal budget is in fact walled off from the cuts. Social Security and veterans’ programs are exempt, and cuts to Medicare

are generally limited to a 2 percent, $10 billion reduction in payments to hospitals and doctors. Most programs that help the poor, like Medicaid, food stamps, subsidized school lunches, Pell Grants and supplemental security income payments are also exempt. Still, the Pentagon will feel the brunt of half the cuts. Pay for active military is off-limits for cuts, so the rest of the defense budget must absorb the hit. The Obama administration says defense contractors have already ramped down work, contributing to a dip in economic activity in the fourth quarter of last year. The Navy has decided not to deploy an aircraft carrier as planned to the Persian Gulf.

funds and became the third consecutive congressman in the district to leave office under an ethical or legal cloud. “I feel let down,” said Armstrong, who works as a school bus aide and at a bowling alley. Early voting numbers showed reluctance to get to the polls. In Chicago, fewer than 2,800 voters, or roughly 2 percent of registered voters in the district, cast early ballots. In suburban Cook County – the bulk of the district’s voting population – it was nearly 2 percent. The last time the Chicago area had a special primary

election for Congress was 2009 after Rahm Emanuel left his seat to take a job as White House chief of staff. Roughly 18 percent of registered Chicago voters in the district including North Side neighborhoods voted. In suburban Cook County, the percentage was far less. Further complicating things today could be an impending winter storm. The National Weather Service issued a warning for much of northern Illinois predicting up to 6 inches of snow. Election officials said they were communicating with streets and sanitation workers about keeping pathways to polling places clear. “We hope the voters appreciate, that given a low turnout contest, your ballot has more power than it normally it does,” said Jim Allen, spokesman for the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners. Voters haven’t seen an open primary since 1995 when Jackson first won office. His November resignation created a rare opening in the strongly Democratic territory and the Democratic winner of today’s primary is expected to cruise through the April 9 election. The shortened campaign season has been fierce; it wasn’t unusual for candidates to attend multiple debates on a single day.

Suit: No garbage pickup for political opponents

Woman dies in crash with fleeing suspects

First lady’s ‘Let’s Move’ tour to stop in Chicago

CHICAGO – A lawsuit accuses a longtime Chicago alderman of dirty politics during municipal elections, including by pulling strings so his challengers’ garbage went uncollected. The federal lawsuit filed in Chicago at the end of last week names Alderman Walter Burnett Jr., two sanitation department officials and the city. Reached Monday, Burnett denied the allegations. The plaintiffs are two candidates who ran against the 27th ward alderman in 2011 and lost. Thomas Courtney Jr. and GeVonna Fassett claim constitutional-rights violations.

ROCKFORD – A 58-year-old Rockford woman died after three alleged car burglars fleeing from a sheriff’s deputy crashed their vehicle into her car. Winnebago County Coroner Sue Fiduccia said Karen Shafer died about 40 minutes after the crash Sunday afternoon. The Rockford Register Star reported police had received reports of people trying to break into cars in a church parking lot. A Winnebago County sheriff’s deputy spotted the possible suspects who drove off in a vehicle that then crashed into Shafer’s car at an intersection. Police continue to investigate.

CHICAGO – First lady Michelle Obama will stop in Chicago this week to promote physical activity in schools. Obama’s appearance Thursday is part of a national tour to celebrate the third anniversary of her “Let’s Move” initiative.

Among those expected are Olympic gymnasts Gabby Douglas and Dominique Dawes, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and tennis player Serena Williams.

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Candidates for Jesse Jackson Jr.’s former congressional seat made their final push for votes Monday ahead of a high-stakes primary today, but turnout was expected to be paltry despite the lurid headlines surrounding the disgraced Chicago Democrat and millions in outside super PAC money driven largely by the guns debate. Fourteen Democrats and four Republicans are looking to face off for the 2nd Congressional District seat. The front-runners – former state Rep. Robin Kelly, former U.S. Rep. Debbie Halvorson and Chicago Alderman Anthony Beale – made a flurry stops at train stations, strip malls and diners all over the district that spans Chicago’s South Side, south suburbs and some rural areas. They faced a truncated campaign season, the frenzy for endorsements once locked up by Jackson and even a potential Election Day winter storm. But Danny Armstrong, 51, who had voted previously for Jackson, remained undecided between Beale and Kelly and was considering whether to even vote at all. Jackson pleaded guilty this month to illegally spending campaign

Earlier on Monday, blizzard warnings extended from the Oklahoma and Texas panhandles into south-central Kansas. The blizzard warnings were dropped Monday evening for the far western portion of the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles. Meanwhiletotheeast,lines of thunderstorms crossed Arkansas, Louisiana and Florida, bringing heavy rain and an occasional tornado warning.

Syria says it’s agreed to talk with armed rebels By RYAN LUCAS The Associated Press BEIRUT – Syria said Monday it is prepared to hold talks with armed rebels bent on overthrowing President Bashar Assad, the clearest signal yet that the regime is growing increasingly nervous about its long-term prospects to hold onto power as opposition fighters make slow but persistent headway in the civil war. Meanwhile, the umbrella group for Syrian opposition parties said it had reversed a decision to boycott a conference in Rome being held to help drum up financial and political support for the opposition. Walid al-Bunni, a spokesman for the Syrian National Coalition, said the move came after a phone call

between the group’s leader, Mouaz al-Khatib, and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry. Al-Bunni told pan-Arab broadcaster Al-Arabiya the decision was made based on guarantees al-Khatib heard from western diplomats that the conference would be different this time. He did not elaborate. The boycott had put the group at odds with its Western backers. The Syrian talks offer, made by Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem during a visit to Moscow, came hours before residents of Damascus and state-run TV reported a huge explosion and a series of smaller blasts in the capital, followed by heavy gunfire. State-run news agency SANA said there were multiple casualties from the explosion, which it said was a

suicide car bombing. Britainbased activist group the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the explosions targeted a checkpoint, adding there were initial reports of at least five regime forces killed and several wounded. The talks proposal marked the first time that a highranking regime official has stated publicly that Damascus would be willing to meet with the armed opposition. But al-Moallem did not spell out whether rebels would first have to lay down their weapons before negotiations could begin – a crucial sticking point in the past. The regime’s proposal is unlikely to lead to talks. The rebels battling the Syrian military have vowed to stop at nothing less than Assad’s downfall and are unlikely to

posal suggests the regime is warming to the idea of a settlement as it struggles to hold territory and claw back ground

it has lost to the rebels in the nearly 2-year-old conflict. Opposition fighters have scored several tactical victories in recent weeks, capturing the nation’s largest hydroelectric dam and overtaking air bases in the northeast. In Damascus, they have advanced from their strongholds in the suburbs into neighborhoods in the northeast and southern rim of the capital, while peppering the center of the city with mortar rounds for days. Monday night’s explosion struck about 800 yards from Abbasid Square, a landmark plaza in central Damascus. It was followed by several other smaller blasts thought to be mortar shells landing in various districts of the capital. The blasts and subsequent gunfire caused panic among residents who hid in their apartments.

U.S. alleges ‘recklessness’ as Gulf oil spill trial begins By MICHAEL KUNZELMAN The Associated Press NEW ORLEANS – BP put profits ahead of safety and bears most of the blame for the disastrous 2010 spill in the Gulf of Mexico, a U.S. Justice Department attorney charged Monday at the opening of a trial that could result in the oil company and its partners being forced to pay tens of billions of dollars more in damages. The London-based oil giant acknowledged it made “errors in judgment” before the deadly blowout, but it also cast blame on the owner of the drilling rig and the contractor involved in cementing the well. It denied it was grossly negligent, as the government contended. The high-stakes civil case went to trial after attempts to reach an 11th-hour settlement failed. Eleven workers were killed when the Deepwater Horizon rig leased by BP exploded on April 20, 2010. An estimated

172 millions of gallons of crude gushed into the Gulf over the three months that followed in the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history. Justice Department attorney Mike Underhill said the catastrophe resulted from BP’s “culture of corporate recklessness.” “The evidence will show that BP put profits before people, profits before safety and profits before the environment,” Underhill said in opening statements. He added: “Despite BP’s attempts to shift the blame to other parties, by far the primary fault for this disaster belongs to BP.” BP attorney Mike Brock acknowledged that the oil company made mistakes. But he accused rig owner Transocean Ltd. of failing to properly maintain the rig’s blowout preventer, which had a dead battery, and he claimed cement contractor Halliburton used a “bad slurry” that failed to prevent oil and gas from traveling up the well. BP has already pleaded

guilty to manslaughter and other criminal charges and has racked up more than $24 billion in spill-related expenses, including cleanup costs, compensation for businesses and individuals, and $4 billion in criminal penalties. But the federal government, Gulf Coast states and individuals and businesses hope to convince a federal judge that the company and its partners in the ill-fated drilling project are liable for much more in civil damages under the Clean Water Act and other environmental regulations. One of the biggest questions facing U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier, who is hearing the case without a jury, is whether BP acted with gross negligence. Under the Clean Water Act, a polluter can be forced to pay a minimum of $1,100 per barrel of spilled oil; the fines nearly quadruple to about $4,300 a barrel for companies found grossly negligent, meaning BP could be on the hook for nearly $18 billion.

British Cardinal resigns amid Catholic conclave preparations By GREGORY KATZ and NICOLE WINFIELD The Associated Press VATICAN CITY – In a season of startling change for the Catholic Church, the latest break with tradition was as unexpected as it was a wakeup call to the 115 men who will elect the next pope. Britain’s highest-ranking Catholic leader resigned and removed himself Monday from the upcoming conclave, saying he did not want allegations that he engaged in improper conduct with priests to be a distraction during the solemn process of choosing the next leader of the church’s 1.2 billion-member flock. It was the first time a cardinal has recused himself from

a conclave because of personal scandal, according to Vatican historians. The Vatican insisted that Pope Benedict XVI accepted Cardinal Keith O’Brien’s resignation purely because O’Brien was nearing the retirement age of 75 – not because of the accusations. But O’Brien himself issued a statement Monday saying he would skip the conclave because he wanted to avoid becoming the focus of media attention at such a delicate time. “I do not wish media attention in Rome to be focused on me – but rather on Pope Benedict XVI and on his successor,” said O’Brien, who had been archbishop of St. Andrews and Edinburgh. “However, I will pray with them and for them that, enlightened by the

Holy Spirit, they will make the correct choice for the future good of the church.” Through his spokesman, O’Brien has contested allegations made Sunday in a British newspaper that three priests and a former priest had filed complaints to the Vatican alleging that the cardinal acted inappropriately with them. There were no details about the behavior, and the Observer newspaper did not name the priests. It said the allegations date back to the 1980s. The cardinal’s action comes in the wake of a grassroots campaign to shame another cardinal, retired Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony, into refraining from participating because of his role protecting sexually abusive priests.

U.S. Census Bureau to stop use of term ‘Negro’

Sanctions relief offered in Iranian nuclear talks

WASHINGTON – After more than a century, the Census Bureau is dropping its use of the word “Negro” to describe black Americans in surveys. Instead of the term that came into use during the Jim Crow era of racial segregation, census forms will use the more modern labels “black” or “African-American.” The change will take effect next year when the Census Bureau distributes its annual American Community Survey to more than 3.5 million U.S. households, Nicholas Jones, chief of the bureau’s racial statistics branch, said in an interview. He pointed to months of public feedback and census research that concluded few black Americans still identify with being Negro and many view the term as “offensive and outdated.”

ALMATY, Kazakhstan – World powers, fearful of scuttling negotiations beginning this week with Iran, are offering the Islamic republic some small new sanctions relief in return for curbing its nuclear program. But officials warned Monday that it’s unlikely that any compromise will be reached soon. Negotiators set low expectations for the latest round of high-level diplomatic talks to begin today in Kazakhstan’s largest city – the first since last June’s meeting in Moscow that threatened to derail delicate efforts to convince Iran to stop enriching uranium to a level close to that used for nuclear warheads.

Warrant issued for Vegas shooting suspect LAS VEGAS – Police said they

have a warrant for the arrest of a 26-year-old ex-convict identified as the prime suspect in a shooting and fiery crash that killed three last week on the Las Vegas Strip. Police Capt. Ammar Chris Jones told Harris reporters Monday that Ammar Harris faces three murder charges in the Thursday incident that killed the driver of a Maserati and a taxi driver and passenger. District Attorney Steve Wolfson attended an afternoon news conference and afterward said he hoped Harris would surrender. Wolfson called the case “of the highest importance,” and said prosecutors are already working with police on the case.

Ken Koehler reads a statement from state Rep. Mike Tryon, R-Crystal Lake, during an open meeting Monday of the McHenry County Right to Carry Association at the Woodstock VFW.

Association endorses House Bill 997 • GUNS Continued from page A1 said, adding that what he’s doing is good. The people who obtain guns legally “aren’t the ones who are messing up and killing people,” she said after the meeting. “It’s the people that are getting the guns illegally.” Schuch isn’t in favor of just anyone being able to carry a concealed weapon. Throughout the evening, he stressed the importance of education and said one of the goals of the McHenry County association is to expose members to “real, quality trainers.”

While the association endorses House Bill 997, a bill introduced by state Rep. Brandon Phelps, D-Harrisburg, and signed onto by 46 other representatives, Schuch said he thinks it’s “ridiculous” that the bill only requires four hours of training. Another proposed bill is similar to Phelps’ but requires eight hours of training and has a higher initial fee. Getting a driver’s license, in comparison, requires months of training, Schuch said, adding that he doesn’t think a concealed weapons permit should require that much. Schuch is a National Rifle Association instructor. Phelps’ bill is one of three

floating around Springfield in the wake of a federal appellate court’s decision that Illinois’ ban on concealed carry is unconstitutional. The court gave the Legislature until June 8 to get something passed. A third shell bill has been introduced by Speaker Michael Madigan, D-Chicago. Some concealed-carry advocates, including McHenry County Board member Ken Koehler, who updated Monday’s attendees on what’s happening in Springfield, expect the bill to be restrictive. Madigan has scheduled a hearing for this morning to allow legislators to submit amendments on the issue.

Depner remained in McHenry hospital Monday • DUI Continued from page A1 Depner, who police said was upset, slurring his speech and looking intoxicated, told deputies that he and his girlfriend had gotten into an argument and he decided to take her car for a drive in his old neighborhood. He was taken to Centegra Hospital – McHenry, where he remained Monday morning. Charges against him include driving under the influence, improper lane use, driving with a revoked license and driving an uninsured motor vehicle. The vehicle police say Depner was driving had snow on a bumper and some minor damage, but no property damage was found on Rand Road. The place where the car reportedly went off the roadway is near the site of the Aug. 21, 1999, crash that left four members of the Burleson family dead: Eva, 34; Daniel, 13; Tiffany, 11; and Dallis, 7. Husband and father Thomas Burleson was the only survivor. He said Monday that he wasn’t surprised by Depner’s arrest. “I don’t feel like, ‘Thank goodness that happened,’ or ‘He’s getting his,’ ” Burleson said. “There’s none of that at all. I’m sad that he finds himself in this situation again.” After being sentenced in 2003 to 14 years in prison, Dep-

“I don’t feel like, ‘Thank goodness that happened,’ or ‘He’s getting his.’ There’s none of that at all. I’m sad that he inds himself in this situation again.” Thomas Burleson Sole survivor of the 1999 crash that killed his wife and three children ner was released on parole June 24, 2011, which Burleson said caused him some concern. When his pleas for a new trial were denied, Depner had looked toward Burleson as officers locked his handcuffs and muttered, “You’ll get yours.” Burleson, who lives in Crystal Lake, has remarried and has two young sons. Originally from Texas, Burleson said he has lived in the area since 1994 and doesn’t want to move. “I have roots here, and I really don’t want to feel obligated ... that I have to move my family out of a sense of an urge to protect them,” Burleson said. “I don’t want my wife to live in fear, and she does to a certain extent.” Depner has had no contact with him, Burleson said, and that’s the way he wants it. “I’ve worked really hard at not allowing that man to control my life,” Burleson said. “The anger I felt and what I wanted to do to him frightened me, and I don’t want to be that person anymore.” At the time of Depner’s sentencing, Judge Sharon Prather called it “without a doubt the most egregious case of reck-

less homicide in the history of McHenry County.” The crash occurred about 11 p.m. as the family was driving along Route 120 in Lakemoor after spending a day at Great America and then picking up the family dog from Eva Burleson’s mother’s house. The dog also was killed. Depner’s minivan crossed the center line and crashed nearly head-on into the Burlesons’ Volkswagen minibus, ripping open the side. Depner maintained his innocence, suggesting that Burleson had a seizure that caused the crash and later accusing an officer of fabricating an accident reconstruction report. Depner also was charged with aggravated battery for urinating on an officer and a medical technician who tried to collect a urine sample in the hours after the crash. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to five years in prison, which was served concurrently. “He is not somebody who was celebrating a promotion, or their kid getting into college, went to the local bar and had a beer and got in a crash,” Burleson said. “I do think this man is evil.”

• BILLS Continued from page A1 vendors would be waiting more than a year to be paid, Msall said. That raises the question of whether they would be able to keep their doors open or continue to provide services such as health care for state employees and retirees. “No one knows if the state will be able to continue to operate under that scenario,” Msall said. The report comes about a week before Quinn is scheduled to present his budget for the next fiscal year. Projections issued by his budget office last month showed the growing pension costs would result in a cut of about $400 million for education. It also projected cuts for public safety and economic development. The Chicago Democrat has said pension reform is his top priority – a refrain echoed by other top lawmakers. But legislators remain unable to agree on how to fix the problem. Proposals have included raising the age at which public employees may retire, reducing annual increases for retirees and asking employees to contribute more. Some lawmakers also say the cost for

Abdon Pallasch, Quinn’s assistant budget director, said the administration welcomes the Civic Federation’s report. “Last year, they supported our successful rescue and overhaul of the Medicaid program, which led to a better outlook for our budget from the Civic Federation this year,” Pallasch said. “The Civic Federation continues to support our efforts to reform the state’s public pension systems, which will stabilize the state’s finances.”

teacher pension funds should be shifted to local school districts – a proposal Republicans fear could lead to property tax increases. Msall said Monday they should be working to “immediately” address the issue. The report also recommends the state expand eligibility for Medicaid in order to receive additional federal funds available through the Affordable Care Act; continue Quinn’s long-term plan to move the developmentally disabled from institutions and into community-based settings and “aggressively pur-

Helping our heroes find good jobs Getting a job isn’t as easy as it used to be, especially when the unemployment rate hovers near 8 percent. For young military veterans, the search is harder. Last year, the jobless rate exceeded 20 percent for veterans between the ages of 18 and 24. For veterans who are 25 to 34, unemployment was in double digits. For the record Government officials who have We applaud efforts in Illinois worked on the and in Congress that will help problem include veterans of our armed forces Gov. Pat Quinn find decent-paying jobs more and U.S. Rep. quickly. The private sector also Adam Kinzinger must do its part by considering of Illinois. veterans during recruitment Quinn’s latest efforts. initiative to help veterans find jobs came as an executive order issued several weeks ago. The governor ordered state agencies to assess the skills that veterans learned in the military when they apply for licenses for various civilian jobs, such as nursing and the medical field. Quinn’s idea is to streamline the process for veterans to receive appropriate licenses, so they can get hired more quickly. Quinn also has been talking up the Hiring Veterans Tax Credit, established last year, as an incentive to help more veterans become employed. Veterans possess amazing skills that they acquired while defending our nation. Translating medical military skills into civilian jobs is the goal of Rep. Kinzinger’s Veteran Emergency Medical Technician Support Act, which the House approved last week. Kinzinger, R-11th District, and his cosponsor, U.S. Rep. Lois Capps, D-Calif., wrote the bill to help states streamline their certification requirements so that military emergency medical technicians can more quickly become civilian EMTs. Military EMTs have top-flight training and have worked in extreme battlefield conditions. Back in the U.S., some rural areas have shortages of EMTs. It makes sense to help veteran EMTs speed the transition so they can go to work at home where their skills are needed. The Senate now must take up the KinzingerCapps bill. We encourage its approval. Executive orders, tax incentives, and acts of Congress won’t be enough to solve the problem, however. Private-sector employers must do their part. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has a “Hiring Our Heroes” program that has helped thousands of veterans get jobs. National Chamber officials say they plan to adjust the program to focus on younger veterans. We hope that focus filters down to local businesses across McHenry County. We encourage local employers to consider the debt our communities owe to the young men and women who wore the uniforms of the Armed Forces. Hire a vet. Then hire some more.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE All too true To the Editor: This past election, voters faced a significant referendum supported by state Rep. Jack Franks that would have greatly altered McHenry County by instituting an executive-style government. Billed by local politicians as a death sentence that would doom the county to an iron-fisted popularly elected executive, they said they would work toward getting a different option for voters to decide on the ballot. They have since changed their minds, and have decided that voters aren’t quite ready to determine the chairman of the board. Besides, it’s much easier to establish power by bargaining with 23 other individuals, rather than having to prove yourself to the entire county. The whole situation regarding the chairmanship continues to remind me of a segment from the referendum debate between Reps. Franks and Mike Tryon this past fall. Franks said, quite emphatically, that the board’s resistance to change was simply protecting its “fiefdom,” and that the bottom line was that board members were unwilling to trust voters with such power because they thought that they were too stupid.

Sadly, these words are proving to be all too true. Tim Keough Lakewood

Extra laugh To the Editor: Oh my, the recent complaint about political cartoons gave me an extra laugh (Feb. 17, It’s Your Write.) Did you complain, Ms. Gloria Scholz, about the cartoons that made fun of Presidents Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, and Govs. Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin, and even now Sen. Marco Rubio’s “parchment?” It certainly is different when the shoes don’t match the feet, right? Thanks, editor, for reprinting the cartoon. Hey, I saw the original picture; isn’t skeet usually shot high up in the air? Who/what is being shot at here? By the way, I thought Sen. Rubio’s speech was right on. Carol Hansen Richmond

However, I noticed one thing; i.e., both the senator and the Northwest Herald ignored the newspaper’s limitation of 250 words for all submissions. Her letter far exceeded 250 words. Seemingly of no consequence, I suggest there is a principle involved that is most disturbing. First, Sen. Althoff apparently doesn’t believe the rules for the rest of us apply to her. Secondly, this bow to the ruling elite is all too common for the Northwest Herald. McHenry County, like the state of Illinois, is a tribute to waste, fraud and mismanagement.

Behind the scenes at MCDOT when snowstorm is imminent Since man began traveling down roads and walkways, snow and ice have been obstacles for motorists and pedestrians. From the time when people first used sleighs, then transitioned to motorized vehicles, roads and walkways needed to be cleared for safe travel. While so many things have changed in snow and ice removal, the basic concept of removing snow and ice by moving it off the road or sidewalk with a blade still is the No. 1 method across the globe. Let’s look at some of those changes and how the McHenry County Division of Transportation has evolved through the years. By the time you have learned of a coming snow event on TV, through the newspapers or the Internet, chances are the MCDOT already has been planning a course of action as to how we are going to tackle it for a couple of days. It was not always this way. As recently as a couple of decades ago, the standard operating procedure for most snow operations in the U.S. and here in McHenry County was to wait for the snow to fall or the ice to build up on the roads, and then dispatch staff to clear the roads

and treat them with a sand and salt mixture. This reactive approach to clearing roads made traveling more difficult for the public and the job of the plows even tougher. We knew there was a better way to do it, not only for the traveling public but for the environment as well. The first thing MCDOT wanted to do was to create a proactive process that began with better weather forecasting. In the early 1990s, MCDOT began using contracted weather services. These weather services concentrate on the road, specifically pavement temperatures, which is obviously much different than what you see on the news. The equipment used to measure this is a Road Weather Information System. The RWIS site is a mini-weather station constantly transmitting real-time information back to MCDOT, and also ties into a national system that helps make accurate predictions. When MCDOT started using data from RWIS locations, they were nearby, but none in McHenry County. MCDOT since has installed several at various locations throughout the county to provide key data closer to home.

VIEWS Mark DeVries Now that we have information about an upcoming snow event, MCDOT then has to determine the best course of action. Depending on the weather conditions (air temperature, air moisture, pavement temperature, etc), the equipment that will be needed is prepped, loaded and ready to go typically a day ahead of the storm. One of the newest tools we have for snow fighting is pretreatment. Applying certain chemicals before the storm starts can act similarly to putting a spray on a frying pan when you cook. You may have seen trucks applying liquid to the road, making those brownish lines you see, and wondered why they were there. This “anti-icing” pretreatment is a method that was refined and enhanced, making it a practical snow-fighting tool right here in McHenry County. When the snow begins to fall, the anti-icing prevents it from becoming packed, which can make plow-

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

ing very difficult. Anti-icing also is environmentally friendly. With the melting process started, the plow that comes by later now can use less salt. Another environmentally friendly aspect of anti-icing is that it contains sugar and salt. The sugar we use is a by-product from food processing (recycling) and helps the salt stick to the road. Now that it’s started to snow, plowing operations continue as you might think, but our innovations don’t stop. The salt we use is pretreated itself. It doesn’t look white, but instead has a brownish-orange color (or sometimes blue as in the latest shipment). Pretreating and pulverizing the salt prevents it from bouncing as much when it is spread, so it stays where we want it, on the road. To top it off, all these processes are applied using computers. Computers monitor the speed of the plow truck and can adjust the amount of salt that is spread to help conserve salt. All these tools give the plow operators the latest technologies so that they can perform their duties in the safest and most efficient manner.

Once the event is over, you may think that MCDOT can relax. This is far from true. All of the unused materials on the plows are returned and restocked. The trucks are serviced and cleaned, as washing the trucks can extend the life of the plows by 30 percent. We then get ready for the next event. Over the past 10 years, MCDOT has developed many new processes for winter operations. MCDOT has been a pioneer in the winteroperations field and has received national and international acclaim. We openly share our successes with other government agencies. The next time that you see those big, beautiful, fluffy snowflakes start to fall, and you are snug in front of your fireplace, think of what is going on behind the scenes at MCDOT to ensure that you will be able to safely get where you need to go. When it does snow, give yourself two things, more time and more space to those around you. Please drive safely.

JURY BEING PICKED FOR MURDER TRIAL WOODSTOCK – After starting Monday, jury selection is expected to continue today in the murder trial of a man accused of killing a former courthouse security officer. Timothy S. Smith, 28, is charged with first-degree murder in connection with the May 2011 shooting death of Kurt Milliman, 48, of Prairie Grove. Police have said that Milliman answered an online ad for sex with Smith’s wife, going to the couple’s home on Doty Road near Woodstock. A dispute broke out, and Milliman was shot once in the back, police said. Smith’s attorney, Assistant Public Defender Kim Messer, said that her client shot Milliman while defending his wife. Kimberly A. Smith, 30, is expected to testify against her husband after prosecutors granted her some immunity. They agreed that what she says on the stand will not be used against her in her own criminal case. She is scheduled to go to trial March 11.

LAKEWOOD – Two people were taken to the hospital Monday morning after a multi-car crash at the intersection of Routes 47 and 176, according to the Lakewood Police Department. Authorities were called to that area around 6:30 a.m. for a report of a two-vehicle accident with minor injuries. A vehicle traveling north on Route 47 collided with a car trying to make a left turn onto southbound Route 47 from west Route 176, police said. The driver and passenger of the northbound vehicle, a man and woman, later were taken to Centegra Hospital – Woodstock with injuries not considered life-threatening. The driver of the other vehicle, William C. Thomfohrda, 67, of Marengo, was cited for an improper turn at an intersection. Traffic was diverted away from the intersection for more than a half hour while police investigated.

McHenry County residents who oppose same-sex marriage rallied Monday outside of state Rep. Jack Frank’s office. The rally comes on the heels of today’s expected Illinois House Executive Committee vote.

Rally brings little response Residents stood outside state Rep. Jack Franks’ office to protest the gay marriage bill, but he would not say how he planned to vote By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – With an Illinois House committee vote on gay marriage looming, dozens of McHenry County residents rallied against same-sex marriage Monday outside state Rep. Jack Franks’ Woodstock office. The House Executive Committee is expected to vote on the issue today, which will be the first step before it can go to a full House vote. Several conservative groups, including Lake County Right to Life, McHenry County Right to Life and the Illinois Family Institute, helped organize Monday’s rally in an effort to push Franks to take a stand on the same-sex marriage. “We want a response to the voters who actually put [Franks] in office,” Woodstock resident Tammy Pieri said. “We’d like an email back. We’d like a phone call back.” The Marengo Democrat was on his way to Chicago on Monday and spoke to the Northwest Herald over the phone. He said he was not aware of Monday’s rally and would not say how he would vote on a potential gay marriage bill. “We should not be discussing social issues,” Franks said. “The focus should be on fiscal issues.” Franks said that Illinois is in an

Harvard alderman stepping down Council will look for applicants from Ward 4 to replace Perkins By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com HARVARD – The City Council will accept the resignation of longtime Ward 4 Alderman Darrell Perkins tonight. The representative’s seat was up for re-election in 2015. Perkins didn’t include a reason for stepping down when he submitted his letter of resignation to Mayor Jay

Nolan on Feb. 8, effective immediately. “Right now he wants to keep that under hat, so I’m going to respect his wishes,” Nolan said. “There’s no problem with it,” he added. “He’s fine. Everything’s good.” Nolan and Ward 2 Alderman Phil Ulmer said Perkins had been on the council at least 10 years. Perkins didn’t return calls

Monday seeking comment. “He’s a good peer,” Ulmer said. “I think he did a really good job.” Nolan now will begin seeking applicants from Harvard’s Ward 4. He has six months to fill the position, he said. “I’ll have to go out for that,” Nolan said. “I need to put the feelers out there.” Perkins ran unopposed in his last two elections in Ward 4, which is situated in the southwest corner of the city. That has been a trend in Harvard. This year,

incumbents are running unopposed in three of the four elections for council seats. “It’s not easy to get people to run,” Ulmer said. Ulmer, who is running unopposed in the April election, said he didn’t remember any other council members stepping down mid-term. Ulmer is seeking his third term this spring. He said Perkins’ experience will be missed. “I’m sure the reasons he had are good reasons, and we’ll go from there,” he said.

CARY – District 26 expects to run balanced operating budgets through the 2016 fiscal year, if funding comes in as anticipated from the state. This includes adding 12 teachers next year to help bring back dedicated art, music and physical education teachers and going to 90minute periods for middle school English. The staffing plan was approved Monday by the school board. Administrators recently presented a five-year financialoutlook,whichtakes into account having money available for technology upgrades, adoption of new textbooks, and setting aside money for facility upgrades and repairs, something the district had not been able to plan for in recent years. The Cary-based district also is planning for a possible shift in pension costs from the state to the local level. Over the next four years, the district has about 50 teachers retiring who are being replaced by younger teachers, who are lower on the salary schedule. “We have natural attrition happening with our retirees,” Director of Finance and Operations T. Ferrier said at a recent finance committee meeting. “That attrition has helped offset the decline in revenue we’re seeing every year.” However, there are additional costs that could help drive a future deficit such as health insurance requirements under the Affordable Care Act, special education costs increasing faster than the rate of inflation, and continuing cuts in state funding. “Ultimately, the amount of the budget gap will depend on our ability to negotiate and to maintain cost-effective expenses from here going forward,” Ferrier said. Board member Jason Larry said last week that he has concerns about the small differences between revenue and expenses the district is projecting. “Although we have demonstrated the last couple of years our administration is able to manage razorthin margins, this shows zero surplus, so any hiccup could potentially change this chart,” Larry said. Ferrier said revenue from

Ottley dismisses new attack, unsure how it will affect votes • GRAFTON Continued from page B1 had been on the office payroll, but said the family members left his office three years ago. He dismissed Zielinski’s last-minute campaign attack as misleading, since both his wife and his daughter Sherri Proehl were certified and qualified to work in an assessor’s office. The two worked full time doing data entry, he said. His other daughter, Julie Stauner, worked part time during the summers and often would not get paid, Ottley said. He also recalled how his wife sometimes would take pay cuts so that other employees could receive raises. “He is just going to make up and say whatever he wants because he wants the job,” Ottley said. But for Zielinski, the truth is in the data. He said that the information obtained

through state sunshine laws is indisputable and shows that Ottley’s family still consumes nearly a quarter of Ottley’s personnel budget, even if they all stopped working three years ago. Combined, Carol Ottley, Sheri Proehl and Julie Stauner all made $405,014 from Dec. 31, 2005, to Dec. 31, 2012, when the total earned wages was $1.943 million, Zielinski’s data show. He also obtained resignation letters from two deputy assessors in 1990, with one stating that she left because Ottley had yet to contact her. Carol Ottley and Sherri Proehl showed up on the payroll months later. “Why would you take an experienced employee and trade them for family members?” Zielinski said. “In a normal business, that would raise a ton of eyebrows.” Defending his integrity, Ottley said the payroll numbers don’t reveal any evidence that his office was substandard.

He pointed to the fact that he has earned the state performance bonus for the past 21 years for making fair assessments in the township. The 70-year-old assessor has no idea how Zielinski’s campaign offensive will play with voters when they head to the polls today. Ottley missed valuable campaign time, after breaking his hip while knocking on a voter’s door Feb. 5. “It will be what it is,” Ottley said. “I can’t change it.” The other contested Republican primary races on the Grafton ballot include supervisor and highway commissioner. Voters will choose between incumbent Linda Moore, Huntley Trustee Pam Fender and attorney Marty Waitzman for supervisor. CandidatesTomPoznanski and Richard Dvorak will compete for the highway commissioner nomination. Polls throughout the Huntley area open at 6 a.m. today.

Rally attendees want Franks to take stand against gay marriage • MARRIAGE Continued from page B1 Kathy Barnette, founder of Truth Exchange Ministries, said she wants to hear more from Franks and said she hoped the rally would encourage him to take a stand against gay marriage. “What we’re hoping is that he will see that people are engaged and people are concerned,” she said. “He’s beholden to his constituents.

… Hopefully he will vote no on the matter.” Earlierthismonth,members of Unitarian Universalist Congregation in McHenry and members of Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays met at the offices of Franks and state Sen. Pam Althoff, R-McHenry, in support of the gay marriage bill. “We’re here because, with all of our hearts, we want the marriage equality bill to pass,” PFLAG Council of Northern Illinois President

Toni Weaver said at the Feb. 12 meeting. “We want to see those we know and love have equal treatment under the law and to have their love relationships recognized.” Neither Franks nor Althoff were present at the meetings. The gay marriage bill, called the Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act, made it through the Senate on Feb. 14. If the bill passes the House, it will go to Gov. Pat Quinn, who strongly supports the bill.

8LOCAL BRIEFS $90,000 in fire damage for Fox Lake business

New charges for man accused of sexual assault

FOX LAKE – A fire Saturday morning at a Fox Lake business caused about $90,000 worth of damage, according to the Fox Lake Fire Department. Crews were called to Furniture Doctor, 34 E. Grand Ave., around 1:45 a.m. Saturday for a report of a structure fire, fire officials said. Firefighters arrived to find smoke coming from the rear of the one-story, brick building. It took firefighters about 15 minutes to bring the fire under control. No one was injured. The cause of the fire is under investigation. Members of the Greater Round Lake Fire Protection District assisted with the blaze.

WOODSTOCK – A man accused of sexually assaulting two women he met through Craigslist faces additional charges after authorities identified more victims, according to the Woodstock Police Department. Charles R. Oliver, of 407 W. Greenwood Ave., Woodstock, was arrested late last month and charged with two counts of criminal sexual assault and two counts of unlawful restraint. He was charged Sunday with three additional counts of criminal sexual assault, three counts of unlawful restraint, and one count of harassment of a witness.

Police said the 44-year-old arranged meetings with two women after he initiated contact with them on Craigslist. Three other victims were identified through the ongoing investigation, police said. McHenry County Sheriff’s Office deputies and members of the U.S. Marshal’s Fugitive Apprehension Unit arrested Oliver on Sunday in Chicago. Oliver is being held at the McHenry County Jail on a $300,000 bond. Police said they believe there may be more victims. Anyone with information related to the investigation is encouraged to call Woodstock police at 815338-2131.

Board members advocate for continuing conservative budget By the numbers

• D-26 Continued from page B1 corporate property taxes and general state aid can be moved to operating from capital funds, or the district could cut back on technology or textbook purchases. “Should we get in a situation where the razorthin margin looks like it’s going to go red, then we could pull some of that general state aid or the corporate property taxes into the operating funds to cover that deficit,” Ferrier said. “Another thing is how we continue to conservatively budget,” Ferrier added. “We generally budget on the conservative side, so we don’t put ourselves in a situation where we could potentially fail.” With the five-year outlook, the district will be able to forecast future problems and begin to look at possible

Source: Cary District 26 solutions. At a recent Finance Committee meeting, board member Scott Coffey gave an example of possibly looking

at benefit structures for employees. “Those are the kinds of things where you could take action now ... change the benefit structure to the employee base, in [fiscal 2014] or somewhere along the continuum,” Coffey said. “Those are the kinds of discussions or changes you have to have to change a number.” Superintendent Brian Coleman said previous forecasts had the district running deficits in the 2014 fiscal year. “We’ve made huge progress with that,” Coleman said. “That’s five years out, we are looking at a deficit. Many districts are looking at a deficit now. I think the district is in great shape as we move forward. If you look at those year to year, and try to determine where you’re at. There is a lot of changes that can occur between now and fiscal year ’17.”

Josh Downey, maker of Chicago Johnny’s giardiniera, prepares an Italian sausage with giardiniera while at home in McHenry.

McHenry’s Chicago Johnny’s Homemade giardiniera recipe creating a stir By JANE HUH huh@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Josh Downey had never set out to run a small business selling hand-packed giardiniera. “I didn’t even eat giardiniera until a few years back,” he said. “I fell in love with it and started eating copious amounts of it. “Then I started making giardiniera for myself and some families got a hold of it and really liked it. So I started selling it to see if I can make something out of it.” When his hand-packed giardiniera straight from his parents’ kitchen kept selling out, Downey realized he could be on cusp of something bigger. The 28-year-old with a history degree from Monmouth College had worked in retail while living with his parents in McHenry before the buzz over Chicago Johnny’s spread through word of mouth. Encouraged by the enthusiasm from friends and family, Downey went on to put in more time and effort into the newfound venture. Downey’s middle name is John, which spawned the namesake product. He started selling Chicago Johnny’s as a vendor at a flea market in Wilmot, Wis., late last summer. And relying on hisJohnsburgHighSchoolties,Downey partnered with a small deli shop and a gas station to stock the items. “I went to school with some of the employees there,” he said. And, “One, two, three. Things just clicked.” In August, Downey reached out to Joseph’s Marketplace, 29 Crystal Lake Plaza, Crystal Lake. “I just brazenly walked in there and asked if they would carry it. I don’t know how many times I called them, but it was a two-week period.” The store manager allowed him to return on a Saturday with a half batch – 10 gallons of giardiniera – and “set up a table by the deli.”

CRYSTAL LAKE – Radio station Y103.9 has changed its name to 103.9 The Fox. The station, WWYW-FM, also has changed its format from “classic hits” to “classic rock.” The changes went into effect Monday afternoon. “This modification will allow us to better serve our northwest suburban communities and provide increased opportunity for existing and future advertisers of both WWYW and our sister station, WZSR,” said General Manager Jack Taddeo. 103.9 The Fox will launch with a live and local morning show hosted by Midwest rock radio veteran Ben Herman who comes to the station from Clear Channel Radio in Des Moines and previously worked for Saga Communications. Herman also performs stand-up comedy in clubs across the country, including in Chicago. Middays will be handled by Program Director Ryan Wild who moves over from WZSR. Afternoon drive is hosted by Jonathan Peletis (“JP”), a lifelong resident of the Chicago area. He hosts a variety of successful podcasts and was an air talent at WERV for several years. Nights with Alice Cooper will be heard from 7 p.m. to midnight every week night. Additional weekend talent will be added in the near future. A request for call letter change is pending at the FCC, Taddeo said. The Mile High Trust operates WWYW and WZSR serving the northwest suburbs.

Josh Downey puts giardiniera on Italian sausage at his home in McHenry.

Chicago Johnny’s What: Homemade giardiniera product available at Joseph’s Marketplace in Crystal Lake and other locations. Information: Call 224-243-1045, email chicagojohnny@chicagojohnnys.com, or visit www.chicagojohnnys.com. The test runs on two Saturdays were a success, Downey sold seven cases, or 84 jars. In the meantime, Chicago Johnny’s was selling online through its website www.chicagojohnnys.com. The early days of hand-packing giardiniera in his kitchen are a blur. The work ran like a marathon, going 36 hours to produce a batch. One batch amounts to 20 gallons, Downey said. Soon after the success at Joseph’s, Downey researched manufacturing options and found a business in Chicago that hand-packs giardiniera. “I thought it was going to bring some side money and then once I saw that it could be a real business, I decided to go for it,” he said.

By early November, Chicago Johnny’s partnered with Joseph Antognoli and Co. in Chicago after Downey visited the facility. “They had an old-fashioned way of doing things, which I liked,” he said. “It’s about quality control. If something’s not given enough love and attention, the product could go south pretty quick.” The mix of pickled vegetables adds a kick to virtually any meal, not just Italian beef sandwiches, Downey said. ‘Grilled cheese, hot dogs, pizzas, chili, pasta dishes,” he said. “Sometimes I’ll be eating it out of jar with a spoon.” As creator of Chicago Johnny’s, which is relatively early in the business, Downey admits the experience is nerve-wracking. Downey takes deep pride in the labor involved in his product and how it all began. “It wasn’t created out of a box,” he said. “With the flavor, I developed it based on what I like… bold, smoky and earthy.”

NEW YORK – Stocks had their worst drop in more than three months Monday as the prospect of political paralysis in Italy raised the specter of Europe’s debt crisis flaring up again. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 216.40 points, or 1.6 percent, to 13,784.17, its biggest drop since Nov. 7. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index

fell 27.75 points, or 1.8 percent, to 1,487.85, dropping below 1,500 for the first time in three weeks. The Nasdaq composite dropped 45.57 points, or 1.4 percent, to 3,116.25. Stocks had rallied in the early going as exit polls showed that a center-left coalition in Italy that favored economic reforms in the euro region’s third-largest economy was leading. That gain evaporated after a later poll predicted that the elections could result in a stalemate in

the country’s legislature. The losses accelerate in the late afternoon as partial official results showed an upstart protest campaign led by a comedian making stunning inroads. “There was confidence in this election and obviously confidence imploded,” said Ben Schwartz, a market strategist at Lightspeed Financial. Investors dumped Italian government bonds, sending their yields higher, and erased most of an early

rally in Italy’s stock market. The yield on Italy’s 10-year government bond shot up to 4.43 percent from 4.12 percent early in the day, a sign that investors’ confidence in Italy’s government was dimming quickly. The country’s benchmark stock index, the FSTE MIB, rose 0.7 percent, giving up an early gain of 4 percent. Investors worry about the outcome of Italy’s election because it could set off another crisis of confidence in the region’s shared currency, the euro.

Barnes & Noble founder wants to buy retail business By MAE ANDERSON AP Business Writer NEW YORK – Barnes & Noble founder and Chairman Leonard Riggio has told the book seller he is going to try to buy the company’s retail business. The news sent shares up nearly 9 percent in midday trading. Riggio disclosed in a regulatory filing Monday that he wants to acquire the company’s stores and website, but not the business that makes the Nook e-reader or the company’s college bookstores. No price was disclosed. It’s the latest attempt by a company founder to take back control of all or part of a company he founded. Best Buy’s co-founder Richard Schulze is mulling a bid for the electronics retailer, and Michael Dell earlier this month announced a $24.4 billion deal to take the namesake computer company he founded private. The deals are a way executives can have more control over companies

without the need to run everything by shareholders. “When you’ve got control outside public eye or public market, you can invest and translate your strategy at your own pace,” said Morningstar analyst Peter Wahlstrom. Riggio, who founded Barnes & Noble in the 1970s and helped it expand its “big box” presence, is Barnes & Riggio Noble’slargest shareholder, with nearly 30 percent of the company’s shares. (While Riggio didn’t found the original Barnes & Noble store in New York, which opened in 1917, he bought the store and brand name in the 1970s to create the current-day company.) Barnes & Noble said the offer will be considered by a committee of three independent directors. But there is no set timetable for the process. The New York-based bookseller has been struggling to

find its place in the retail landscape as more readers have shifted to electronic books and competition has grown from discount stores and online competitors. It has invested heavily in its Nook e-book readers and digital library and struck a deal with Microsoft last April to create a Nook subsidiary. But the Nook faces tough competition from other devices like Apple’s iPad Mini, Amazon’s Kindle and Google’s Nexus tablet. Earlier this month, the company said it expects Nook media revenue of less than $3 billion. It also anticipates a loss for the unit before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization to exceed the $262 million loss recorded in its 2012 fiscal year. This follows a report from the retailer in January that its Nook unit revenue fell 12.6 percent to $311 million during the critical holiday period. Overall sales during the holiday period fell 10.9 percent.

Feds to probe Ford cars and SUVs for stalling The Associated Press DETROIT – The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it will investigate problems with stalling or surging engines in nearly 725,000 Ford cars and SUVs. The probe affects Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner SUVs and Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan sedans from the 2009 through 2011 model years. The vehicles can unexpectedly go into “limp home mode” at reduced power, the agency said in documents posted Monday on its website. NHTSA and Ford have received almost 1,500 complaints about the problem. There were three crashes and one injury. NHTSA began looking into

the cars and SUVs after getting a request from the North Carolina Consumers Council last year. Nonprofit safety groups and consumers can petition the agency to investigate vehicle problems. The cars and SUVs haven’t been recalled, but the investigation could lead to a recall. The Fusion and Milan are nearly identical cars with the same engines, as are the Escape and Mariner. Ford scrapped the Mercury brand in 2010. The North Carolina organization said it received two complaints about 2009 Escapes that had been diagnosed with throttles either stuck open or closed. The group said that owners reported repeated stall-

ing and surging. Ford told NHTSA that vehicles made from June 22, 2009, to Oct. 15, 2009, may have faulty printed circuit boards that control the throttles. Ford and its throttle body supplier, Delphi Corp., changed the circuit board manufacturing process after Oct. 15, 2009. That resolved the problem, NHTSA said in documents posted Monday on its website. NHTSA said it analyzed 123 complaints about the cars or SUVs going into what’s known as limp mode, in which vehicle speed was limited to 20 mph or 900 engine revolutions per minute. Drivers may interpret the limp mode as stalling, even though the engines still move the vehicles, the agency said.

The Onion apologizes THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Tuesday, February 26, 2013 • PlanitNorthwest.com/buzz

The Onion is apologizing for calling the 9-year-old star of “Beasts of the Southern Wild” a vulgar and offensive name on Twitter, an attack that led to a firestorm online. The satirical newspaper on Sunday referred to Quvenzhane Wallis with an expletive intended to denigrate women. The Onion was lambasted overnight and asked for forgiveness Monday. “It was crude and offensive – not to mention inconsistent with The Onion’s commitment to parody and satire, however biting,” The Onion CEO Steve Hannah wrote on Facebook. “No person should be subjected to such a senseless, humorless comment masquerading as satire.” The offensive tweet was taken down within an hour.

Lohan teams with Sheen

‘Finally, he mentioned Canada’ The former Canadian ambassador to Iran who protected Americans at great personal risk during the 1979 Iran hostage crisis said Monday it was good to hear Ben Affleck thank Canada after Affleck’s film “Argo” won the Oscar for best picture. “Argo” came under criticism from some Canadians, including former ambassador Ken Taylor, who said he felt slighted by the movie because it makes Canada look like a meek observer to CIA heroics. Taylor says it minimizes Canada’s role in the Americans’ rescue. Taylor criticized Affleck on Friday and said he hoped Affleck would acknowledge Canada’s role. Affleck brief- Ken Taylor ly thanked Canada in his acceptance speech Sunday. “Finally, he mentioned Canada,” Taylor said. “Under the circumstances, I think that was fine. It certainly acknowledged Canada. I think certainly the movie was about CIA agent Tony Mendez. I think that President Carter’s remarks put everything in proportion.” Carter appeared on television last week and said, “90 percent of the contributions to the ideas and the consummation of the plan was Canadian,” but the film “gives almost full credit to the American CIA.” Taylor kept the Americans hidden at his residence and at the home of his deputy, John Sheardown, in Tehran for three months and facilitated their escape by arranging plane tickets and persuading the Ottawa government to issue fake passports.

Lindsay Lohan will be playing herself, but as a therapy patient, in an upcoming episode of the FX sitcom “Anger Management.” Producer Lionsgate Television says Lohan will develop a romantic relationship during her sessions with the therapist character played by series star Charlie Sheen. Lindsay Lohan Lionsgate says the episode is set to air in April. Sheen and Lohan have also recently worked together in the upcoming “Scary Movie 5,” which is set to debut the same month.

Janet Jackson: I got married – last year Janet Jackson knows how to keep a secret: The singer has been married since last year. A representative for Jackson confirmed Monday the musician and Wissam Al Mana wed last year. This is Jackson’s second secret marriage. She secretly married Rene Elizondo Jr. in 1991. They separated in 1999. The 46-year-old Jackson first tied the knot when she was 18 to singer James DeBarge, which lasted three months in 1984.

Shatner’s pick for Pluto moon: Vulcan “Star Trek” fans, rejoice. An online vote to name Pluto’s two newest, itty-bitty moons is over. And No. 1 is Vulcan, a name suggested by actor William Shatner, who played Capt. Kirk in the original “Star Trek” TV series. Vulcan snared nearly 200,000 votes among the more than 450,000 cast during the two-week contest, which ended Monday. Vulcan was the Roman god of lava and smoke, and the nephew of Pluto. Vulcan was also the home planet of the pointy-eared humanoids in the “Star Trek” shows. Think Mr. Spock. “174,062 votes and Vulcan came out on top of the vot-

ing for the naming of Pluto’s moons. Thank you to all who voted!” Shatner said in a tweet once the tally was complete.

Judge leans in favor of Jackson suit A jury should decide whether the promoter of Michael Jackson’s final concerts negligently hired and supervised the physician convicted of causing the singer’s death, a judge tentatively ruled Monday. If the ruling stands, it will allow the case by Jackson’s mother, Katherine, to go forward and present the theory that concert giant AEG Live controlled the physician who gave the superstar a lethal dose of the anesthetic propofol. Superior Court Judge Yvette Palazuelos’ tentative ruling, however, eliminates some of Katherine Jackson’s claims and an attorney for AEG predicted the company would win at trial. It is unclear when the ruling will be finalized, or whether the judge will change it.

Police, MC Hammer dispute incident A sheriff’s department spokesman in Northern California says a Dublin, Calif., police officer stopped and then arrested MC Hammer because the ’90s rap star was driving a car with expired registration and refused to get out of the vehicle. Hammer eventually came out of the car and was arrested for investigation of obstructing an officer in the performance of his duties. Hammer has offered a different account. He tweeted on Saturday the officer asked him if he were on parole or probation and tried to pull him out through the car window.

Wheaton Warrenville South’s desperation 3-pointer fell short as time ran out, setting off a Red Raiders celebration with their 4743 win for the Dundee-Crown Supersectional title. The Red Raiders (26-6) will make their first state semifinal appearance in school history and play Rolling Meadows (29-3) at 6:30 p.m. Friday at Redbird Arena in Normal. “It’s a great feeling,” Andrews said. “It’s unbelievable that we’ve

gotten this far. We knew if we worked really hard as a team we’d get there.” Andrews scored a team-high 17 points. Despite missing two 3-pointers to open the game, Andrews kept shooting and it paid off. She converted four 3-point shots, including two in the third quarter, which gave Huntley its biggest lead of the game, 31-24. Her outside shooting opened up the lane for freshman Ali Andrews, leading to six of her 12 points in the fourth. Ali Andrews also shined on the defensive end, shutting down Wheaton Warrenville South (29-4)

Vendor has back turned on history CHICAGO – Greg Burks is a big fan of the Blackhawks. He comes to almost every game. Yet he misses almost every goal. “It’s the age-old thing that vendors will tell you,” Burks, 34, said with a smile Monday before the Hawks hosted the Edmonton Oilers. “We hear the roar of the crowd and we turn around, and if we’re lucky, we get to see the replay.” These are good days to sell Streaking cold beer for the hottest team in The Blackhawks sports. rally to force The Hawks overtime before extended their winning on Marian season-opening Hossa’s goal in the point streak extra period as their to 19 games NHL-record streak Monday with a of games to start thrilling comethe season without back against the a regulation loss Oilers to win, hits 19.

After every win, reporters crowd around Hawks players such as Marian Hossa and Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane. If you ask me, vendors such as Burks are at least as interesting. By day, Burks coaches girls basketball and track at Hinckley-Big Rock High School. By night, drives to the city and sells beers at games for the Hawks, Bulls, Bears, Cubs and White Sox. It’s not uncommon for someone to see Burks in street clothes and to give him another look. It’s the kind of look that says, “You look familiar, but I don’t know why.” Maybe it’s because you bought a beer from him the last time you were at the stadium. Few, if any, cities are as passionate about their professional sports teams as Chicago.

Golden Eagles had defeated Prairie Ridge, 43-25, on Monday in a Class 4A Jacobs Re-

gional first-round game at the Eagles’ Nest. “Never, never …,” Hinkle said. “We played great defense. We couldn’t finish, but our defense kept us in the game.” The No. 3-seeded Eagles (17-14) found enough offense in the second half to extend their coach’s career at least one more day. Jacobs faces No. 2 Dundee-Crown at 7:30 p.m. today in a regional semifinal. “We’re in the same boat with him,” said senior forward Will Schwerdtmann, who led all players with 18 points. “We have 12 seniors and we don’t want to let each other down.” Jacobs led Prairie Ridge, 16-13, at halftime after guard Chrishawn Orange’s 3-point play late in the second quar-

ter. The Eagles held the Wolves (8-19) to one Michael Bradshaw free throw in the third quarter. “Our intensity on defense was there all night,” Jacobs guard Chrishawn Orange said. “We wanted to suffocate them on defense, and that’s what we did. In the third quarter, we made some shots and pulled away.” Nick Ledinsky scored a pair of baskets and Schwerdtmann hit a 3-pointer and a 14-footer as the Eagles widened the gap to 27-14 heading into the fourth quarter. “We know if we keep the defense up, the points will come,” Schwerdtmann said. “We got the ball in transition and that led to some easier open shots.”

FOOTBALL: BILL WOULD LIMIT HITTING IN PRACTICE

Coaches, parents, others oppose legislation By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com VERNON HILLS – State. Rep. Carol Sente insists she’s not trying to do away with football by introducing a bill that would limit how much high school players could hit one another in practice each week. But the majority of coaches, athletic administrators and parents who attended a public forum on the proposed legislation introduced by the Lincolnshire Democrat agree that governing high school sports shouldn’t be part of lawmakers’ duties. Instead, they suggested that rath-

er than focusing a law on how high school football coaches go about their business, state legislators should trust that those charged with not only getting teams ready to play each Friday night, but in protecting the teenagers that play for them. “The practice field is our classroom,” said Glenbrook North coach Bob Pieper, who was among a number of coaches who told Sente that House Bill 1205 would not allow them to teach in the manner they have been trained. Illinois High School Association Executive Director Marty Hickman tends to agree.

Hickman was part of the panel for Monday night’s forum that included neurologist Dr. Larry Robbins, who was among those who pushed Sente to introduce the bill. Hickman said that the IHSA has been “good citizens” when it comes to protecting the 50,000 high school football players currently competing in Illinois as well as educating coaches and parents. Hickman said after the 21⁄2-hour forum that was attended by about 75 people he doesn’t feel a state law would do anything more for the state’s prep players than the IHSA is already doing. “I think we’re doing good things,”

Hickman said. “That’s really one of my concerns with this legislation is that this could be a step back. Obviously, we want to be part of the discussion, but we haven’t seen a need for legislation because we feel like we’ve been doing a good job.” Sente said her proposed bill wasn’t introduced as a suggestion that the state’s athletic governing body and high school coaches aren’t doing enough. But Sente suggested that having a law on the books would ensure that all of the state’s member schools are operating the same way. Sente reiterated that the language currently included in the bill would

Steven Ticknor hit a pair of 3s in the fourth quarter and led Prairie Ridge with 11 points. “Defensively, you’d expect that since it’s the third time we played each other,” Wolves coach Corky Card said. “There weren’t many easy baskets there. They turned us over in the third and got some buckets in transition, that really got them going.” Jacobs and D-C split during the season, with the Eagles winning in double overtime in their gym.

BOYS BASKETBALL: CLASS 4A JACOBS REGIONAL

Patient CL South knocks out Cary-Grove By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Crystal Lake South took one glance at the shot chart at halftime against Cary-Grove and knew what needed to be done. Even with the Trojans playing a 2-3 zone defense, along with some 1-3-1, South wanted to go inside. “We realized we didn’t need to put up 3-pointers, just score points,” Gators forward Eric Schiller said. “We were 12 of 14 in the first half in the paint. We just needed to be patient and cut with more backdoors.” South exhibited patience and took care of the ball to defeat C-G, 58-47, in their IHSA Class 4A Jacobs Regional boys basketball tournament opener Monday at the Eagles’ Nest. The No. 5-seeded Gators (14-14) shot 51.3 percent from the field, 78.2 percent at the free-throw line and committed only seven turnovers to advance to today’s 6 p.m. semifinal against top-seeded Crystal Lake Central. “It came down to mentally

change once she has collected more opinions. Sente said she will hold a second public forum in Springfield on Wednesday when she’ll again seek input on whether a bill should go forward. During Monday night’s forum, she asked coaches whether bumping the tackling limitations up to two days a week from one – as is included in the current form of the bill – would serve as an adequate compromise. Coaches weren’t convinced. Instead, they pointed to the fact that they already limit how much hitting they allow in practice to prevent their players from head injuries.

Crystal Lake South’s Austin Rogers scores over Cary-Grove’s Dean Lee on Monday at Jacobs. how to attack their zone,” South coach Matt LePage said. “We said, ‘Don’t take a 3 unless it hits the paint first.’ Our passing was really good. We’re playing well and getting timely scoring.”

Most of it came from forward Austin Rogers, who scored a career-high 29 points, many coming from the low block on feeds from his teammates. He was 10 of 13 from the field and 9 of 10 from the line.

“Our sets were really good,” said Rogers, a 6-foot-11⁄2 junior. “They kept getting me the ball on the block and I just had to make the shots. We didn’t settle for jump shots. We’re better off when we do that, we’re more aggressive as a team.” South has five consecutive wins and will get its third crack at Central (24-3) this season. The Gators lost to the Tigers at the Eagles’ Nest in the Jacobs Holiday Classic championship, 65-43. No. 4-seeded C-G (12-16) cut the margin to 48-43 with 2:12 remaining on Jason Gregoire’s two free throws, but could not get closer. Gregoire, a sophomore guard, led the Trojans with 16 points. Senior forward Steve Plazak added 11. “Our combination zone slowed them down some, but the longer we played, they found some holes,” Trojans coach Ralph Schuetzle said. “Rogers is so strong, he was really the difference. He knows how to get in there and get fouled. He was the best athlete on the floor, just an outstanding high school basketball player.”

DEERFIELD – It’s no secret that the McHenry boys basketball team relies on the 3-point shot to be successful. Deerfield was able to exploit the Warriors’ weaknesses underneath the basket and McHenry tried to fight back with its trusty shot that just wasn’t going in. The Warriors finished 1 of 20 from behind the arc, and the result was a 61-29 loss to Deerfield in the Class 4A Deerfield regional. “We have to shoot the ball well, and we just didn’t do that,” McHenry coach Tim Paddock said. “We average close to nine [3-pointers] a game, and we made one tonight. We don’t have a true back-to-the-basket guy and we try to go inside, but it’s difficult when the shots aren’t falling. We’re a different team.” McHenry (11-16) scored the first points of the game when Korey Partenheimer got to the free-throw line and made both shots with 5:39 remaining in the first. But after trading baskets, Deerfield went on a momentum-shifting 7-0 run that was fueled by four consecutive McHenry turnovers. Cody Freund came off the bench for Paddock’s team and hit the Warriors’ only 3-pointer to stop the run. They then got a block on the defensive end and Freund drove to the basket, scored on a layup and was fouled. He later completed the three-point play. He scored all six of his points in that 28second stretch. But when the second quarter began the shots stopped falling for McHenry as it shot

He hit a 12-foot jumper from the baseline before driving the basket the next three possessions. He finished with six of his team-high eight points in the fourth quarter. “It’s my last game, and I just wanted to finish it strong,” Zalewski said. “We tried to make some shots, but that didn’t really work. I tried to dish the ball out because they were clogging the middle but at the end I just tried to get to the free-throw line. I used some shot fakes and tried to take it into them. “It’s tough [to lose], but I’m going to remember some good times I’ve had with this team.”

Red Raiders shut down Irish recruit Thompson • HUNTLEY Continued from page C1 senior forward and Notre Dame signee Diamond Thompson. The 6-foot-2 forward held Thompson to four points and kept her off the boards. Ali Andrews wasn’t alone in stopping Thompson and the Tigers as Huntley put together one of its best, complete defensive performances this season. “Our defense is key in every game,” Ali Andrews said. “We knew we had to stop their two best players. ... [Thompson and I] were both playing tough, so it was even matched. It was fun playing against a good player.” From the onset, it was clear buckets would be hard to come by. Huntley was held scoreless through the first five minutes of the first quarter, but its defense kept them in the game by holding Wheaton Warrenville South to four points. Huntley trailed 8-7 after one quarter, however the Red Raiders took control on Bethany Zornow’s threepoint play less than one minute into the second. Huntley never trailed the rest of the game. “What an effort by our players,” Huntley coach Steve Raethz said. “They just gutted it out for 32 minutes against a really solid Wheaton Warren-

Waldron finished with a game-high 23 points. Aided by help defense that hedged on ball screens, Ream limited Waldron’s open looks and often forced her into tough shots in the lane. Raethz praised Ream’s ability to contain Waldron, which caused the Tigers’ offense to scuffle. “I knew she started their whole offense and that I had to contain her,” Ream said. “At practices before I had actually guarded my coach two straight practices to get me going and how I needed to defend her and that helped a lot. I came out tonight and just tried to do the best that I could.”

Gonzaga hits No. 2 Ranking is highest in program history By NICHOLAS K. GERANIOS The Associated Press SPOKANE, Wash. – Gonzaga has been in 14 NCAA tournaments, five of which ended with an appearance in the Round of 16. But no Gonzaga team had been ranked No. 2 in The Associated Press’ Top 25, as the Zags were Monday. Indiana remained No. 1 for the fourth straight week. Meanwhile, the little school from Spokane with the funny name moved up one spot to its highest ranking ever, surpassing the No. 3 position it enjoyed last week and for the final two weeks of 2003-04. “It’s a special thing to be recognized at this time of year,” guard Mike Hart said. “We’ve got 30 games under our belt. That says a lot. It’s not just a few games.” That sentiment was echoed by coach Mark Few. “The polls mean a lot more this time of year than they do in November, December, even January,” Few said. “All of us are being judged on the true body of work. It’s definitely rewarding. “It establishes us as a national program, which I believe we have been for the last 10 years. This group has done a great job of competing at that level, winning games at the highest level.” While the West Coast Bulldogs made some news at the top of the poll Monday, Louisiana Tech, the Bulldogs from the

Gardner played only 11 minutes in Marquette’s 60-56 loss at Villanova on Saturday, with coach Buzz Williams saying he benched the junior center because “he played really bad.” Gardner was the exact opposite against the Orange, making all seven of his shots and converting 12 of 13 free throws in 33 minutes to pull Marquette (20-7 overall, 11-4 Big East) into second place, one-half game behind No. 7 Georgetown. C.J. Fair had 20 points for Syracuse (22-6, 10-5), which has lost three of five and dropped into a tie for fourth with No. 21 Notre Dame.

Guard Kevin Pangos cautioned that it is an ethereal honor. “It can change in a flash in case we lose a game,” Pangos said, adding that players were well aware of the carnage at the upper reaches of the poll in recent weeks. “It makes us aware it can happen to us at any time.” Gonzaga’s remaining regular-season games are at BYU on Thursday and at home against Portland on Saturday. Louisiana Tech coach Michael White is another who has his eyes on March, even though his team cracked the poll for the first time in more than a quarter century. “It’s not a goal we set out to accomplish,” White said. “What we’re really striving for is an NCAA tournament berth. But this is something that can’t be taken away from them, so I’m happy for them.” The Hoosiers, who have been ranked No. 1 for a total of 10 weeks this season, received all but one first-place vote from AP photo the 65-member national media panel.

Oklahoma City signs Fisher for stretch run

Tom Brady will be a Patriot until he is 40 years old. Brady agreed to a three-year contract extension with New England on Monday, a person familiar with the contract told The Associated Press. The extension is worth about $27 million and will free up nearly $15 million in salary cap room for the team, which has several younger players it needs to re-sign or negotiate new deals with. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the extension has not been announced. The 35-year-old two-time league MVP was signed through 2014, and has said he wants to play at least five more years.

OKLAHOMA CITY – The Oklahoma City Thunder signed veteran Derek Fisher on Monday, filling an opening for a third point guard that was created when Eric Maynor got traded to Portland. Fisher joins Oklahoma City for the stretch run for the second straight season. He played in 20 regular-season games and then all 20 playoff games last season. He played briefly for the Dallas Mavericks this season, asking for his release in December after injuring his right knee. Fisher won five NBA championships with the Los Angeles Lakers before getting traded to Houston last season, then buying his way out of his contract with the Rockets. – Wire reports

Blackhawks right wing Marian Hossa begins to celebrate after scoring the winning goal past Edmonton Oilers goalie Nikolai Khabibulin during overtime Monday at the United Center. The Hawks won, 3-2.

BLACKHAWKS 3, OILERS 2 (OT)

Hawks’ streak at 19 after win over Oilers Hossa finishes off game with OT winner THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Marian Hossa skated along the boards, pumping his right arm as the United Center roared its approval. Go ahead and give two more points to the streaking Blackhawks. Hossa scored 1:44 into overtime and the Hawks beat the Edmonton Oilers, 3-2, on Monday night to stretch their NHL-record opening points streak to 19 games. Patrick Sharp set up the winning goal with a quick turn along the boards and a drive to the goal that led to two stops by Nikolai Khabibulin. Hossa picked up the second rebound and was again stuffed by Khabibulin before he poked it in for his ninth goal of the season. “It is a great feeling, obviously,” Hossa said. “It doesn’t matter who’s scoring and lately we have a lot of different guys scoring. We try to enjoy the streak, keep playing a simple game and try to find a way to win.” Patrick Kane and Viktor Stalberg also scored for the Hawks (16-0-3), who have won six straight and nine of 10. Ray Emery made 17 saves to remain unbeaten in eight

Next for the Hawks Hawks at St. Louis, 7 p.m. Thursday, CSN, AM-720 starts this season. The Hawks have earned 35 of 38 possible points so far this season. “It was a great third period,” Hawks coach Joel Quenneville said. “We had the puck in overtime, too. Great pay by Sharpie going to the net, great patience and presence with Hossa to finish.” Nail Yakupov and Jeff Petry had the goals for Edmonton, which carried a 2-1 lead into the third period but couldn’t hold on for its fourth consecutive victory over the Hawks. Khabibulin had 31 stops in the opener of the Oilers’ franchiserecord, nine-game road trip. “Of course you feel pain, having the lead going into the third period,” Edmonton coach Ralph Krueger said. “It’s definitely something you dream and believe you can close it. But they are an amazingly powerful team. They are

very strong on the puck and they never, never let up, at all.” Edmonton grabbed the lead for the last time in the second, taking advantage when Brandon Saad was sent off for high sticking. Yakupov, the No. 1 overall pick in last year’s draft, one-timed a pass from Sam Gagner into the right side of the net at 14:17 for his fourth power-play goal and sixth overall. The Hawks looked listless for much of the second, but rebounded quickly in the third. Michal Rozsival was behind the net when he sent a pass in front to Stalberg, who poked the puck into the mouth of goal as Khabibulin went to his knees to try for the stop. The call on the ice was no goal, but replays showed the puck crossed the line before Khabibulin could make the play and Stalberg was awarded his fifth goal of the season after a short review. The pace picked up after the tying goal, and each team had a couple of solid chances to move in front. Yakupov shot off the post on one power-play opportunity, and Khabibulin stopped Hossa on a shorthanded chance.

GLENDALE, Ariz. – The latest comeback try by Dontrelle Willis lasted seven pitches. Still trying find a flash of his former self, Willis said he hurt his left shoulder Monday in the Cubs’ 7-6 spring training loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 2003 NL Rookie of the Year and two-time All-Star walked Nick Evans on six pitches in the eighth inning. After throwing ball one to Brian Barden, Willis grabbed his shoulder. Cubs coaches and trainers visited Willis on the mound and escorted him to the dugout. “It’s a mild setback,” said Willis, who signed a minor league contract with the Cubs in January. “Hopefully, it’s not serious. It’s probably just fatigue.” Willis got a loss to go along with the setback. Evans scored the go-ahead run when Willis’ replacement, Jensen Lewis, gave up an RBI single to Omar Luna. The 31-year-old Willis burst upon the baseball scene in 2003 as a high-kicking, hard-throwing pitcher with the Marlins. He helped them win the World Series that year and was a 22game winner in 2005. Willis has never come close to duplicating that early success. He pitched in the majors and minors for five organizations after leaving the Marlins and announced his retirement

The Cubs’ Darnell McDonald rounds the bases Monday after hitting a three-run home run against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the third inning of a spring training game in Glendale, Ariz. on July 2, 2012. Six months later, the Cubs signed him. But manager Dale Sveum said the team didn’t have any lofty expectations. “We don’t have any plans,” Sveum said. “He’s here to be a backup. He’s a minor league player.” The Dodgers won after trailing by four runs after three innings. The Cubs scored six times off Chad Billingsley and Chris Capuano. Billingsley gave up four straight hits to begin the game, including a leadoff double by Luis Valbuena and a home run to Nate Schierholtz. “It was just good to be out there,” said Billingsley, who underwent rehabilitation for an elbow injury he sustained on Aug. 24. “There was a lot of adrenalin. There’s usually a lot of adrenaline, but there

was even more this time just because it’s been a while.” In the third, Darnell McDonald hit a three-run homer off Capuano and Welington Castillo followed with a home run. Notes: Dodgers LF Carl Crawford took batting practice in the morning. “That was good, felt good,” said Crawford, who underwent surgery on his left elbow in August before the Boston Red Sox traded him to the Dodgers. “I mean, it was the first time I got to swing in a long time.” ... The Dodgers play World Series champion San Francisco today. RHP Josh Beckett is scheduled to start for the Dodgers. Tim Lincecum is set to start for the Giants. ... The Cubs face Colorado today. The Cubs’ scheduled starter is RHP Edwin Jackson, 10-11 with Washington last season.

WHITE SOX 9, GIANTS 9

Sox’s Santiago ‘fighting for a job’ By RICK EYMER The Associated Press SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Paul Konerko had two hits for the White Sox, and Hector Santiago allowed three runs on five hits in his two innings of a 9-9 spring training tie with the San Francisco Giants on Monday. The Sox played to a tie for the second consecutive day. Madison Bumgarner threw two scoreless innings in his first outing since the second game of the World Series, and postseason hero Marco Scutaro had two hits and drove in a run for the Giants. Santiago, who was impressive during four starts in September and October, said he’s not taking anything for granted. “I came to spring training fighting for a job,” Santiago said. “I’m like everybody else here. Nothing is guaranteed to me.” Even should there be no room in the starting rotation, Santiago feels comfortable in whatever role he will be assigned. “I’m pretty wide,” he said. “I can adjust to anything.” He entered the game just wanting to throw strikes and get ahead of hitters. He walked one and struck out one. “I threw all my pitches and it felt like I threw everything where I wanted,” said Santiago, who was 2-0 with a 1.86 ERA in four starts last year.

However, to Burks, the Hawks’ fan base stands out as the best of the best. The team’s terrific start has put everyone in a good mood, but it’s not the only reason fans are spending money. Even if the team were .500, Burks said, sales would be good and tips would be generous. “Blackhawks fans are second to none in this city,” Burks said. “And that’s not to short Bears fans, Cubs fans, Sox fans, Bulls fans. But the Hawks fans are a very loyal breed, shall we say.” Loyal breed. That’s a good way to put it. For many years, the barn was mostly empty whenever the Hawks took the ice. When Burks started selling beer at the United Center in 2005, the Hawks were terrible. Home games weren’t shown on TV. The majority of seats were unoccupied. Not anymore. The Hawks’ crowd of 21,127 marked the 199th consecutive sellout for the franchise. “It’s unbelievable the transformation the franchise has made,” Burks said. “I remember selling to 8,000 people. You were happy on a night when the place was half-full. And now, you’re working every night to a

standing-room-only crowd that’s really into the game.” It’s a fine line, though. Sometimes, Hawks fans are so into the game that they don’t buy as many beers. “It’s kind of funny,” Burks said. “I’d say some of the toughest sales we had was the year they won the Stanley Cup, [during] the Stanley Cup Final, because everybody was so enthralled with the game that they didn’t want you in their way in the seats. “But any time there’s more people on a nightly basis and more regular fans in the stadium, that benefits people like us that are working behind the scenes.” Clearly, sales are good. Burks won’t say exactly how good. “A good vendor will never disclose that information,” he said with a wink. Fair enough. Almost an hour before the opening faceoff, Burks lifted a black strap around his shoulders and carried a case of 24 beers – 18 Bud Lights and six Budweisers – to the concourse behind Section 324. For $7.50 apiece, he poured 16ounce beers into clear plastic cups. Robin Hachmeister of Carol Stream stopped to buy a Budweiser on his way to his seat. I wondered whether Hachmeister was more likely

to buy a beer from Burks because the Hawks were playing so well. He and his buddy laughed and shook their heads. “We always buy beers,” Hachmeister said. “It makes no difference to us.” Hey, when in Rome. Or, I guess in this case, when in Rink. At this rate, a deep playoff run is likely for the Hawks. That would mean more games at the United Center, which is especially helpful to workers such as Burks who lost out on income during the recent NHL lockout. Burks thinks that the Hawks can chase another Stanley Cup title. But so much hinges on good health, and luck plays a factor, so there’s really no telling how the season will end. “We’ve got our fingers crossed that they can make a long run,” Burks said. “There’s no question they have the talent to do that. But the other things we’ll just hope fall into place.” If so, Burks will be here, rooting on the Hawks. Hopefully, he’ll turn around in time to see the replays. • Northwest Herald sports

MIAMI HEAT

FIVE-DAY PLANNER

February belongs to Heat By TIM REYNOLDS The Associated Press MIAMI – LeBron James might be a few weeks ahead of the actual calendar, but he offered one reason why the Miami Heat tend to enjoy February surges. “Springtime, in our league, is the best time,” James said. At least, that’s seems to be case for James and the Heat. With one game left on their schedule before March arrives, the Heat are an NBA-best 11-1 during the second month of 2013. And that extends a trend that started when James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh became teammates nearly three years ago – they were 9-3 in February 2011, 11-2 in February 2012 and are 11-1 this month going into a home game Tuesday with Sacramento. After the month started with a 102-89 loss at Indiana, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said “We have to get better” in his postgame interviews that night. His team has ripped off 11 straight wins since. “You’ve got to play your best basketball at this time of year, February and March and obviously in April going into the stretch,” Wade said. “We would love to play amazing all year, but in the beginning of the season you’ve got to figure things out. It’s a new year, there’s other teams that have new parts, they got better. And then when it comes down to winning team, a veteran team, you have to have ev-

With a win today, Miami would become the first NBA team since 2008 to post at least 12 victories in February. Houston and the Los Angeles Lakers both won 13 times in February 2008, the Rockets doing so in unbeaten fashion. “It’s extremely tough keeping up the level of play. But that’s something we have to overcome,” Bosh said. “We said that this year is totally different from last year. It’s a lot more difficult to keep it up. We just have to keep on pushing. I think the fact that we’re on each other and our urgency is so high, that’s really helping us. ... It’s been a process. We still have a lot more to go. As long as we continue to grow, we’ll be right where we want to be.”

Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te’o runs the 40-yard dash Monday at the NFL football scouting combine in Indianapolis. Te’o’s time of 4.82 seconds could hurt his draft status.

NFL COMBINE NOTES

Tough day for Te’o Irish LB runs disappointing 40-yard dash The ASSOCIATED PRESS INDIANAPOLIS – Manti Te’o’s first appearance on a football field since the BCS championship game didn’t go as well as planned Monday. The Notre Dame star and Heisman Trophy runner-up was clocked at 4.82 seconds in the 40-yard dash. NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock had said Sunday anything faster than 4.7 would be “phenomenal.” Anything 4.8 or over would be a “concern.” The workout comes more than a month after Te’o’s highly-publicized online romance with a girlfriend was exposed as a hoax and that Te’o was a victim of the hoax. Since then, he’s done a handful of one-on-one interviews and took questions Saturday in one of the craziest scenes in NFL scouting combine history. Some wonder whether the story has become a distraction, and Te’o’s sub-par performance

Monday didn’t help.

Utah’s Lotulelei has heart ailment: Top draft prospect Star Lotulelei will undergo more extensive heart tests when he returns to Utah. Doctors at the NFL’s annual scouting combine in Indianapolis found the star defensive tackle and likely high pick has a heart condition, Lotulelei’s agent,BruceTollner,confirmed in a series of emails with The Associated Press on Monday. Tollner said Lotulelei would not take questions regarding the diagnosis yet. But the 6-foot-2, 311-pound defensive tackle still plans to do a full workout in front of scouts at his regularly scheduled Pro Day on March 20. The Tonga native was scheduled to fly to Utah on Monday night, Tollner said. ESPN first reported Lotulelei has a left ventricle that is not operating at maximum capacity. Lotulelei’s professional future could depend heavily on

what doctors find. The Utah standout is considered one of the best prospects in this year’s draft. He is trying to join Alex Smith as the only players from the University of Utah to go No. 1 overall; San Francisco took Smith with the top pick in 2005. “You’re going to have to get all kinds of second and third opinions,” Arizona Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said. When asked whether the Cardinals would remove Lotulelei from their draft board if those doctors confirmed the diagnosis, Arians said: “That’s exactly what would happen.” Uncovering information like this is the reason the combine actually began in the late 1980s. Coaches and general managers have said for years that medical checks are a crucial component of the combine, perhaps the most important data they get all week so they can make informed decisions on draft weekend.

PROUD MEMBER

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – As Jimmie Johnson racked up win after win, championship after championship, he was always chasing one important victory. Johnson already had one Daytona 500 victory on his resume. But he needed one more. He needed it for Chad Knaus, the crew chief who has been with Johnson since the start of their ride into the record books. Knaus wasn’t there the day Johnson won his first 500; he had been suspended by NASCAR for a technical violation found the week before the race was deemed to be deliberate. So Darian Grubb, still a Hendrick Motorsports employee at the time, called the 2006 Daytona victory in Knaus’ place. Ever since, Johnson has wanted to win another so Knaus would have a chance to celebrate winning “The Great American Race.” The time came Sunday when Johnson won his second Daytona 500, forcing the intensely private Knaus to admit just how badly he wanted the win with his No. 48 team. “As you guys know, I eat, sleep and breathe 48,” Knaus said. “Anytime that I’m taken away from that race car, I’m pretty sad. But when those guys were able to come down here and win the Daytona 500 in 2006 in my absence, I think that really solidified the strength of the 48 car. Was I here? No. Was I here in spirit? Most definitely. I couldn’t have been prouder of the group of guys we had there. “But to finally be able to come down here and win, and be a part of this is definitely a huge dream come true.” It was a moment Knaus has been working toward his entire life.

Winning driver Jimmie Johnson (left) and crew chief Chad Knaus show off their Daytona 500 rings Sunday in Daytona Beach, Fla. He has sacrificed plenty in his personal life to get here. With no wife and no kids, he’s not kidding when he says he devotes most of his time to Hendrick Motorsports and building championship race cars. He is not satisfied with what he and Johnson have accomplished since they were paired before Johnson’s 2002 rookie season – and that includes five Sprint Cup championships. No amount of wins or titles has so far satisfied Knaus. It’s been two years since Johnson’s last title, and he went down to the wire with Brad Keselowski last season before bad breaks in the final two races gave Keselowski his first championship. So Knaus was relentless – of course – during offseason preparations. And he devoted a considerable amount of time to the Daytona 500, the first race for NASCAR’s new Gen-6 car. “I know we worked at least 35 days straight on the car that we raced in the Daytona 500,” Knaus said. “I know I put in personally one day of 38 hours straight. I actually sent Jimmie a text, saying ‘I’ve seen 6:48 three times today and haven’t been to bed yet.’ ” Knaus believes that drive is the difference between the

No. 48 team and the competition. “I think what we have above everybody else is the desire to go out and win races,” he said. “We’ve got 500 plus employees at Hendrick Motorsports. When they all want to go out and win races, you put guys like (Johnson) behind the seat, you’re going to see magic happen.” This Daytona 500 win comes at a time of change for Knaus, who is trying as hard as he can to have a life away from racing. He got engaged in December to longtime girlfriend Lisa Rockelmann, who understands when he doesn’t come home for 38 consecutive hours. Team owner Rick Hendrick believes Knaus is in a far better place now than he was in 2006, and the balance Knaus has added to his life might not be enough for everyone, but it’s working for the crew chief. “You can’t be 100 percent and live in the shop and work on the car and if you don’t win, you can’t live with yourself,” Hendrick said. “He’s learned to have other pieces in his life.” • Jenna Fryer covers auto racing for The Associated Press.

Prevent an office flu outbreak Here are some tips on keeping the office healthy and productive: n One of the best methods of flu prevention is to keep the passing of germs to a minimum. A recent survey from Staples found that 80 percent of workers come to work while sick and of those who do stay home, nearly two thirds come back while still contagious. Stay away from people who are, or appear to be, sick. Encourage your employees to be alert for those that look like they may be infected with the flu, both at work and in their personal lives. n Encourage employees to cover their mouths and noses when coughing or sneezing. This can help stop germs, flu or otherwise, from spreading. You can make this practice even easier for your workers by keeping several boxes of-facial tissues within easy reach of employee areas. n Make hand-washing a top priority. Washing your hands is one of the single best methods of flu prevention, killing most flu virus germs that you come into contact with. Making this a company-wide practice will help keep your workforce healthy. Posting signs reminding employees to wash their hands before leaving the restroom and providing hand sanitizer are great ways to stay proactive.

NEW RESEARCH

Smoking and mental health A study has found that adults with mental illness have a smoking rate approximately 70 times higher than mentally healthy adults. The study, published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in collaboration with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Association, found that 36 percent of adults with mental illness smoke, opposed to 21 percent of those without mental illness. Mentally ill smoking adults smoke an average of 20 more cigarettes a month than mentally healthy smokers, adding up to 240 extra cigarettes a year.

Long view Looking ahead at your vision health FAMILY FEATURES Age-related macular degeneration and glaucoma are two of the most common eye diseases in older Americans. As many as 11 million people in the United States have some form of macular degeneration, and more than 3 million have some form of glaucoma, according to the BrightFocus Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving brain and eye health.

Age-related macular degeneration: An irreversible destruction of the central area of the eye’s retina, known as the macula, which leads to loss of the sharp, fine-detail, straight-ahead vision required for activities like reading, driving, recognizing faces and seeing the world in color. It’s the leading cause of vision loss in Americans 60 and older, and the second-highest cause of irreversible blindness in the world. Glaucoma: Actually a group of eye disorders. They have few symptoms in the early stages, but eventually the optic nerve is damaged, leading to loss of side vision or complete blindness. Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness among African Americans and Hispanics in the U.S. Between ages 45 and 64, glaucoma is 15 times more likely to cause blindness in African Americans than in Caucasians. All people older than 60 are at a greater risk of developing glaucoma than people who are younger.

Brandpoint

n Quit smoking. Toxins found in cigarette smoke have been linked to an increased risk for developing macular degeneration. n Wear high-quality sunglasses with a rating of 99- or 100-percent UV-A and UV-B protection. Also don a wide-brimmed hat when outdoors. n Have a comprehensive dilated eye exam regularly from an eye doctor.

Eye tests for everyone

Best vision practices n Eat right, especially fruits and vegetables, and fish high in omega-3 fatty acids such as salmon, tuna and halibut. n Exercise daily to improve your immune system and blood pressure and your eye and brain health, as well as to maintain a healthy weight.

Regular eye exams are crucial in maintaining eye health and catching any warning signs early. This is particularly important for certain forms of glaucoma, as those affected may not feel or see that anything is wrong until the disease has progressed to stages when vision loss occurs. Comprehensive exams should include

these tests: n Visual acuity: Using an eye chart to test your sight at various distances. n Pupil dilation: Widening the pupil with eye drops, allowing the doctor to see signs of disease. n Tonometry: Tests the fluid pressure inside the eye.

Warning signs If you or a loved one experiences any severe or persistent symptoms such as these that can be associated with macular degeneration or glaucoma, contact an eye doctor immediately: n Loss of vision n Sudden blurred or hazy vision n Blind spots or “holes” in your vision n Shadows over the center of your vision

Brandpoint

n Pain in or around the eye that may be accompanied by nausea or vomiting n Halos around lights at night n Painful or intense sensitivity to light n Distortion or waviness of vision, especially central vision n A loss of side vision or a feeling that you’re looking through a tunnel

Computers take away from doc-patient relationship New, sophisticated and innovative tests and high-tech equipment are now available to help physicians make a diagnosis. Computers also play an important role in providing information to the doctor that may be key in determining what is ailing a patient. Unfortunately, because of all of these advances, sometimes lost in the quest for a diagnosis is the time-honored, basic means of making a diagnosis — listening to the patient. Some of the best diagnoses I have made were made because I listened to what the patient was telling me. It was that

VIEWS Dr. Murray Feingold information that led me to the correct diagnosis. Although the importance of listening to the patient is no new revelation, it appears that less time is being devoted to it. Listening requires time, something many doctors do not have today. In some practices, for a variety of reasons, the numbers of patients seen are important. Also, the manner in which computers are used by

some physicians when seeing a patient has the potential of limiting discussion between doctor and patient. Some patients believe that the doctor pays more attention, and eye contact, to the computer than to the patient. One hospital, sensitive to the possibility that the computer may become more important than the patient, has prohibited the use of computers in the examining room. There is no question, when used properly, computers are helpful in making medical diagnoses. I could not practice up-to-date medicine without

a computer because so much information is now available it is impossible to remember, or even be aware of all of it. However, it is still the findings culled from the history and physical examinations that remain the mainstay of leading the patient’s physician to the correct diagnosis. That means going back to the basics, taking the time to listen to the patient and doing a thorough history and physical examination. After gathering all of this essential information, then new high tech studies can be used more effectively and efficiently. Talking and listening to

a patient have benefits other than just making a diagnosis, such as doctors learning about their patients as individuals. For any relationship to be successful communication is essential and that includes listening. This also hold true for the patient-doctor relationship.

Common-sense steps to keep out the winter chill By DIANA MARSZALEK The Associated Press

Photos provided

“Doonya” co-founders Priya Pandya (front left) and Kajal Desai (front right) lead a class on one of their new DVDs (below).

You’ll be ‘doonya’ body a favor By VICKY HALLETT The Washington Post Before launching into an hour of kicks, hand flicks and hip bumps, Kajal Desai turned to the dozen students assembled in a fitness studio last month and offered two pieces of advice: “Smile lots and have fun.” That’s what she’s been doing since 2005, when she met Priya Pandya. Desai was working for Booz Allen Hamilton in Washington, and Pandya, a Georgetown graduate, had stuck around the city for a position at the World Bank. And both were desperately looking for Indian dance. When they found each other, they realized they could teach dance classes and start their own Bollywood-inspired performance troupe, which they named Doonya. The blend of the Hindi words for “rhythm” and “world” might have seemed a tad grandiose early on, as they still were figuring out how to break down dance steps and recruiting students through Craigslist. But their project soon took off. In 2007, they quit their day jobs. In 2009, Pandya started teaching classes in New York. These days, that global success doesn’t feel so far off. They’ve found an even larger audience by emphasizing the

fitness benefits; a few weeks ago, Desai and Pandya helped Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb shake it on the “Today” show. That appearance was promoting the first Doonya workout DVDs, a three-disc series released this month. With Desai’s impending move to Los Angeles, the company will push hard to add classes there and elsewhere. Teacher trainings are scheduled over the next month in Washington, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco to get more instructors certified so more folks can find Doonya at a gym or dance studio near them. “I see this as something that people can do everywhere in the U.S. We’ve broken it down really simply and made it accessible,” Pandya says. Although choreography classes still are part of the Doonya repertoire, Desai and Pandya are now focusing on

the fitness market with a class format that keeps students moving through a series of songs regardless of whether they’ve mastered every step. “So many people are afraid of dance. Their reaction is, ‘I’m not a dancer. I can’t dance,’ ” said Pandya, who’s found she gets a very different response when Doonya is pitched as exercise. “They say, ‘I can go to the gym. I need to go to the gym.’ ” There are other Indian dance workouts around, but Desai says what makes Doonya stand out is its blend of styles. Bolly-Pop’s rib cage isolations work the abs. Bhangra adds big moves that tax the legs and pump up the cardio. Classical dance, which can look a bit like barre, hits the thighs, butt and saddlebags. Add in some folky stuff, with claps that keep the upper body activated, and devote a few minutes to pushups or a weightlifting routine, and “you’re using everything in your body,” Desai says. Desai is hoping this form of dance aerobics with cultural flair can follow in Zumba’s footsteps. “There’s room for more, and Zumba instructors and students would like this, too,” she said. The two programs certainly have similarities, including the zippy pace and spunky

soundtrack. While Zumba is a Latin dance party, Doonya is a Shahrukh Khan flick. That vibe was exactly what Laura Bennett was looking for in 2007 when she signed up to take her first Doonya class. “It all started because I was watching Bollywood movies. There were always fantastic song-and-dance numbers, so I’d pause the TV and try to do them in my living room,” the 42-year-old Virginia resident said. Getting instruction on how to actually look like the people on-screen has kept Bennett hooked for years and improved her overall coordination. For someone whose only previous dance experience was square dancing in gym class, Bennett says she has learned to feel graceful, and she almost doesn’t notice there’s a workout in there, too: “Then the next day, you realize how much your abs hurt.” Doonya’s been a family affair for Mindy Montgomery. The 58-year-old from Great Falls, Va., who has taken classes with her stepdaughter and her niece, finds the moves challenging both physically and mentally. “It doesn’t come naturally to a 50-year-old white woman,” she says. “But I think it’s so beautiful. It’s hard to resist.”

With a nearly 90-year-old house in Rye, N.Y., Melanie Cadenhead spends a large part of every winter being cold. The temperature inside usually drops right around Thanksgiving, and Cadenhead pulls out her sweaters. Having shelled out about $1,000 a month last winter trying to warm up the place, she does not plan to crank the heat any higher this year. “I’ll just sleep in one of those Daniel Boone hats with the ear flaps,” she said. “Winter is not my friend.” Modern living does not have to be that hard, energy efficiency experts say. They cite a host of simple ways to cut energy consumption without sacrificing comfort or lifestyle. Many energy-saving moves are so inexpensive, relatively speaking, they quickly pay for themselves. Sealing air leaks – primarily gaps in construction – and upgrading insulation are the No. 1 ways to nip energy waste, says Scott Stefan, a home energy auditor for Elmsford, N.Y.-based BrightHome Energy Solutions. “American homes are built for cheap energy, and we are not in the cheap energy era anymore,” he said. “Almost every home you go into is badly insulated and leaks a lot of air.” Air leaks, often found around foundations, pipes, recessed lights and chimneys, can be easily identified and sealed; many states have programs that contract with people like Stefan to help you find the source of the problems. But even sealing your house nice and tight won’t really do the job if your insulation has stopped doing its job, Stefan said. Warm air can escape right through insulation that’s been in place for 25 years or more. “We all recognize that we have to replace our cars and computers, and people love to do that,” he said. “But most people have really old insulation – and it’s really beaten down and it’s not doing them any good.”

Such steps tend to be considerably cheaper than, for instance, replacing leaky windows, another energysaving step. That could run into the tens of thousands of dollars – although it often could be avoided simply by hanging storm windows in the winter, experts say. Another way to cut energy consumption is to unplug all those “energy vampires” that suck up electricity even when they’re not being used, said Ken Collier, editor-inchief at The Family Handyman. A typical American home has 40 devices, including TVs, cell-phone chargers and computers, that continually draw power even when they seem to be turned off, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. U.S. households spend about $100 a year – about 8 percent of household electricity costs – to power such devices while not in use. Collier said the expense could be closer to $70 a month. The easiest way to eliminate those costs is to plug your devices into power strips and turn those power strips off when you wrap things up for the day, he said. Using a programmable thermostat and switching to energy-efficient appliances and light bulbs also can yield substantial savings, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Today’s appliances are 40 percent more efficient than those just 14 years old, Stefan said. That’s especially important with big energy suckers such as refrigerators, which typically use more energy than anything else in the house. As for light bulbs, Stefan said, only 6 percent of the electricity drawn by traditional bulbs is turned into light. The rest becomes heat. “It is a very inefficient technology – and it should be. It was invented in the 1800s,” he said. Today’s light bulbs can provide energy savings of up to 75 percent and last 10 to 25 times longer than traditional bulbs, according to the Energy Department. “This is not political or ideological,” Stefan said. “It’s plain old common sense.”

Husband’s micromanagement Take precautions when diving to avoid getting ‘the bends’ wears thin on wife at home Dear Abby: “Harold” and I have been married for more than 20 years and have three children ranging in age from teen to toddler. We are both college graduates and held middle-management jobs until recently. Two years ago, Harold was offered a temporary job in an exotic location in another country. We jumped at the chance. I can’t work because of the regulations here, but the money is good. Now that I’m not working, Harold suddenly believes he has the right to tell me what to do, how to manage daily activities, how to care for the children, etc. When we explore our host country, he loses his temper if I take a photo of something he has already photographed. At Halloween, we invited some local friends over to share the American tradition of pumpkin carving. He literally took the knife out of my hand and shouldered me out of the way so he could do it. In previous years, he had no interest in this activity – the children and I carved the pumpkins. These are just two examples, but the scrutiny is daily and relentless. I am instructed how to do the laundry, wash dishes, clean the stove, on and on.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips How do I deal with this new controlling behavior? If I address it when it happens, he becomes nasty. I have tried discussing his overall change in attitude, but he says I am “imagining” it. If I ignore his “suggestions,” it results in angry outbursts. I don’t know how to get through to him I’m the same competent individual I was before we made this change and I do not need micromanaging. Any advice is welcome.

– Just About Had It Dear Just About Had It: Your husband may be stressed in his new job and no longer feels in control, which is why he is trying to control you. Or, because he is now the sole wage earner, he may feel “entitled” to dictate your every move. If you are now living in a male-dominated culture where women have no rights, his thinking may be influenced by the men around him. If marriage counseling is available, I urge you to get some. If that’s not possible, perhaps a long vacation for you and the children with your family would defuse the

tension.

Dear Abby: My son recently committed suicide. He was only 24. Two weeks before his death, he confided to a family member he had been molested by his uncle when he was between the ages of 4 and 7. I want this uncle to be exposed, but the family wants to keep it “quiet and in the family.” I am very much of the opinion this molestation could be behind my son’s suicide. The uncle is now in his 30s and would have been in his teens when this happened. Please tell me what I should do. – Suffering In Ohio Dear Suffering: Because you are suffering, it is important you talk with a therapist if you haven’t already. While early trauma may have played a part in your son’s death, suicide is a complex act that is not completely understood. What IS clear is what this uncle did while in his teens was predatory. Others in the family – and the community – should be made aware so their children can be protected, because they may be at risk. The therapist can help you decide how to deal with this, so please don’t wait.

Dear Dr. K: I’m planning a diving vacation. A friend told me it’s not safe to fly within 24 hours of diving. Why not? Dear Reader: I’m not a diver myself, so I had to do some research to answer your question. The concern with flying soon after diving (or rising too quickly to the surface of the water after a deep dive) is something called decompression sickness. It’s also known as “the bends.” When you scuba dive, you breathe compressed air from a tank. That air contains high amounts of two gases, oxygen and nitrogen – higher than are normally in the air around us. The deeper you dive, the more pressure you’re under. That causes the nitrogen to stop being a gas; it dissolves into your blood, becoming a liquid, where it remains during your dive. Your body slowly eliminates the nitrogen, primarily in your urine. As you swim back toward the surface after a deep dive, the water pressure around you decreases. If this transition happens too quickly, the liquid nitrogen forms bubbles in your tissues or blood that can damage the walls of blood vessels. These bubbles also can block normal blood

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff flow in the same way little blood clots can. Decompression sickness can cause a variety of symptoms: joint pain, dizziness, headache, difficulty thinking clearly, extreme fatigue, weakness in the arms or legs, or rash. The symptoms you get depend on the organs in which blood flow is blocked. It can take a while for the symptoms of decompression sickness to appear. You can get back up to the surface of the water without symptoms, but then experience them for up to 24 hours thereafter. If you experience any of the symptoms of decompression sickness after scuba diving, get to a doctor as soon as you can. The key to treatment is the use of a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. This is a high-pressure chamber that provides 100 percent oxygen. The treatment drives nitrogen back into its liquid form so it can be cleared from the body gradually, over a period of hours. Hyperbaric treatment is most successful if given within several hours after symptoms start.

To minimize your risk of decompression sickness while diving: • Dive and rise slowly in the water, and don’t stay at your deepest depth longer than recommended. Scuba divers typically use dive tables that show how long they can remain at a given depth. • Don’t drink alcohol before diving. Alcohol makes the brain more vulnerable to injury by the nitrogen bubbles. • Avoid hot tubs, saunas or hot baths after diving. You asked about not flying. As a plane climbs higher, the surrounding air pressure gets progressively lower. Although the plane keeps cabin pressure higher than the real air pressure outside the plane, the cabin pressure still is lower than the air pressure on the ground. That encourages any remaining liquid nitrogen in your blood to form bubbles and cause decompression sickness. For that reason, you should wait 24 to 48 hours after diving before flying.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - A number of restrictions that have hampered your progress in the past are likely to be gradually lessened or, in some cases, even totally removed in the year ahead. This will bring success within your grasp. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- You’re likely to function far more effectively when you can operate independently. Sadly, you could be more of a hindrance in situations where teamwork is required. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Usually, you don’t blab things that should be kept to yourself, but today you might not be able to help telling on someone whom you really dislike. Try not to take the low road. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- There are days when socializing can be a negative experience, and it could be one of those times. If you find this happening to you, make a quick exit. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Your peers could find your motives suspicious, so if you think this to be true, make certain everything you do is above reproach. If you try anything funny, you’ll be caught. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Even if you feel like sounding off to someone who really deserves it, it would be best that you don’t. Hold your tongue and count to 10 or even 20, if that’s what it takes to subdue your anger. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If you find yourself involved in a financial transaction that requires a lot of paperwork, don’t get lazy and take things for granted. Read the fine print, down to the very last comma. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Friends will tolerate a bit of restlessness on your part, but not to the point of changing group plans. Be thoughtful about your behavior. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- When conversing with others, speak well of friends who aren’t present, or say nothing at all. Any comments you make will be repeated and even distorted to those being spoken about. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- To expedite certain tasks or assignments, you might be tempted to take a few shortcuts. Unfortunately, this might only cause more work for you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- It’ll reflect poorly on your image if you try to take credit for something that you had only a small part in producing. Don’t let your ego put you in an embarrassing position. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Don’t overreact if another’s point of view is diametrically opposed to yours. Remember, everyone is entitled to express his or her opinion. Show them some respect. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- When left to your own devices, you’re pretty good at figuring things out. Complications could enter the picture, however, with comments by an unsolicited adviser.

The best improvement in bridge in the last 20 years is the employment of “useless” cards to send suit-preference signals. Without this style of defense, West would have to guess what to do in this deal. With suit preference, it is easy. How should the play and defense go in four spades after West leads the diamond king? South has four losers: three hearts and one diamond. (West cannot have the ace and king of hearts, because his opening lead would have been the heart ace, not the diamond king.) But South has 10 potential tricks: ive spades, two diamonds and three clubs. His best play is to take the irst trick and immediately to lead back his diamond jack. To defeat the contract, West must win with his queen and shift to a heart. But how will he know that is right instead of a club switch? At trick one, East plays his diamond two, discouraging. But on the second round, he can play the seven or four. Wanting a

heart shift, he drops the seven, the higher card asking for the higher-ranking of the other two side suits. Now West knows exactly what to do. If you have only low trumps, you can also use those to send suit-preference signals. In this deal, if South immediately draws trumps, East can play eightsix-three-two, always the highest calling for a heart. The snag with these signals is that you and your partner have to watch the cards very carefully. But if you do, you will defeat more contracts.
