Tuition raised at MCC

Driving dilemma for seniors

Some students voice support for increase By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – McHenry County College students will have to dig a bit deeper into their wallets to enroll next school year, but many voiced they would do so gladly. The McHenry County College Board of Trustees on Thursday approved a 2.9 percent increase in tuition – a $3 per credit hour jump, raising the per-credit-hour cost from $102 to $105 starting this summer session. The increase is expected to generate $16.6 million along with class fees during the coming fiscal year. Even with the increase, the college remains well below the community college state average of $112.75 per credit hour. A parade of students addressed the board for nearly an hour, offering support for a tuition increase and a plan to increase space, which the board is considering in the form of a significant $20-million-plus expansion. Student trustee Natalie Diversiev later showed a video of students supporting the tuition increase as well. Students said while they knew the tuition increase would not go directly to student services they said were vital to the college experience,

GOP governor candidates take on feisty tone at debate Early voting starts Monday for primary By KERRY LESTER and SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Personal jabs and controversies dominated Thursday’s televised Illinois guber-

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Holes in garments OK, but out, damn spot I think I’ve ruined my favorite shirt. And its backup, too. It’s all because I can’t keep my food on my fork. At least that’s my guess. I don’t know how long I’ve had this shirt, but it’s been many years. It’s made by Puritan and is basically a long-sleeved T-shirt but made of much heavier fabric than your regular Hanes T-shirts. It’s navy blue although it has faded some, enough to know it’s been around awhile. But that’s hardly the first clue. The first clue might be the small holes scattered about the shirt. It’s like moths feasted on it. But I can honestly say that in all my years, I have never had a problem with moths. I’ve never had a need for a mothball. Yet they sell mothballs at the store, so someone must be afflicted with them. But it seems rather extreme, given how bad mothballs smell. I’ve never been able to reconcile the use of mothballs with the scent they leave behind. Which is worse? The egg or the chicken? I would think the scent because it lingers heavy in the air, and everyone knows instantaneously what’s up. Someone has a moth infestation. Egad. But, again, in all my years, I have never seen a moth so much as inside the house, much less in a drawer or closet munching on my clothing. And

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Dick Peterson I’ve never known anyone who has been infested with moths and had the clothing holes to prove it. The closest moths come to our house is when they are attracted to the outside light, or they fly into the screened window at night, aiming for the light inside. But, as near as I can remember, none has penetrated the screen or gotten past interest in the outside light. I thought the best use for mothballs was in gardening to keep rabbits and insects away from your plants; they can’t stand the smell, either. But I have come to find out through the National Pesticide Information Center that mothballs are toxic, and one of the last places you want to put them is in your garden. The only safe place for them is in an airtight container to kill moths. But I’ve never had a problem with moths, so I am the wrong person to go to for testimonials. I can tell you about fleas, however, and how much determination they have to live. We had a flea infestation, and I can’t tell you how many months it took to kill

them off. I think it was actually the frigid winter more than anything we did that killed them. The holes in my shirt are not caused by fleas, but – and I’m only guessing – by being washed innumerable times. Eventually, the fabric wears out somehow. It’s not just holes in my shirt. Just about every seam shows extreme wear. What would be the left cuff is hanging on by threads. Half of the sewing has been destroyed, leaving gaping holes as the cuff hangs on for dear life. The other cuff is not far behind, but the stitching is holding out, if visibly frayed. The seam up the left sleeve is punctuated with many holes, but the seam on the right sleeve is holding up marginally better. A breakthrough is about to occur. The edge of the collar where the fabric is doubled over has come apart almost completely all the way at the neck, but instead of flaying apart, the two pieces of fabric stick together as if nothing is happening, which amazes me. Maybe it’s gravitation. I haven’t mentioned how soft the shirt is, and despite the holes, how warm it is. If the left cuff falls off, I may have to reassess continuing to wear the shirt, but until then, it is my favorite, although I have to watch

where I wear this in public. My second favorite shirt is a Jerzees. It’s only a couple of years old, is navy blue and doesn’t have a single hole or frayed seam on it. I bought it as a backup to my favorite shirt; this one I can wear places I can’t wear my favorite. But I can’t see it becoming my favorite shirt. The fabric isn’t nearly as thick. This one is more along the lines of a T-shirt. When my favorite shirt washes away, I will be left with an armoire of shirts, none of them favorites. But what concerns me about both navy blue shirts – dark colors to hide coffee dribbles – are the spots. Grease spots, I think. I can’t wash them out. Now, I can wear a shirt with holes and call it my favorite and not feel ashamed wearing it, but put a grease spot on it, and everything changes. “He can’t keep food in his mouth,” other people will think. “Moron.” “Wear a bib.” It makes me look fat. Or fatter. The holes are conversation pieces. The spots are embarrassments.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Ice cream lovers beware: The government knows you’re unlikely to stop after half a cup. New nutrition labels proposed Thursday for many popular foods, including ice cream, aim to more accurately reflect what people actually eat. And the proposal would make calorie counts on labels more prominent, too, reflecting that nutritionists now focus more on calories than fat. For the first time, labels also would be required to list any sugars that are added by

Count On Me...

manufacturers. In one example of the change, the estimated serving size for ice cream would jump from a half cup to a cup, so the calorie listing on the label would double as well. The idea behind the change, the first overhaul of the labels in two decades, isn’t that the government thinks people should be eating twice as much; it’s that they should understand how many calories are in what they already are eating. The Food and Drug Administration says that, by law, serving sizes must be based on actual consumption,

not some ideal. “Our guiding principle here is very simple, that you as a parent and a consumer should be able to walk into your local grocery store, pick up an item off the shelf and be able to tell whether it’s good for your family,” said first lady Michelle Obama, who joined the FDA in announcing the proposed changes at the White House. Obama made the announcement as part of her Let’s Move initiative to combat child obesity, which is marking its fourth anniversary. On Tuesday, she announced new Agri-

culture Department rules that would reduce marketing of less-healthful foods in schools. The new labels would be less cluttered. FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg called them “a more user-friendly version.” But they are probably several years away. The FDA will take comments on the proposal for 90 days, and a final rule could take another year. Once it’s final, the agency has proposed giving industry two years to comply. The agency projects food companies will have to pay around $2 billion to revise labels.

Rauner’s self-funding targeted Union complains on gubernatorial campaign issue By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois AFL-CIO has taken an unusual tack to shutting down self-funding in the gubernatorial campaign of multimillionaire Bruce Rauner, asking a state inspector to declare that the Republican’s contributions violate state law. The complaint to the state’s executive inspector general is an escalation of the battle between businessman Rauner, who has pledged to stare down “government union bosses,” and organized labor, which aims to keep him from the GOP nomination. The 850,000-member labor union is asking for an investigation into Rauner’s $5 million in contributions to his own campaign. The complaint says Rauner violated the state procurement code because he was chairman of a private equity firm that has invested tens of millions of dollars for several state pension systems, including the Teachers’ Retirement System. The law says that anyone doing more than $50,000 in work for the state cannot contribute to the campaign of the officeholder responsible for the contract – or candidates for that office. That thinking puts Rauner in the unlikely position of being the contractor and the candidate, prohibiting him from donating to his own campaign. A Rauner campaign spokesman said the effort by allies of Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn is “beyond the point of desperation.” The request for an “emergency investigation” – the primary election is March

Bruce Rauner, a Republican candidate for Illinois governor, speaks to a crowd at a Feb. 15 event at Water Street Studios in Batavia. A union is asking for an investigation into Rauner’s $5 million in contributions to his own campaign.

18 – calls for “immediate action to require Bruce Rauner to cease all improper contributions that are adversely affecting the current political campaign in which he is involved and for the disgorgement of all improper contributions.” “We already know that someone who makes $25,000 an hour and wants to lower the minimum wage isn’t like the rest of us, but that doesn’t mean Rauner gets to play by a different set of rules,” AFLCIO president Michael Carrigan said. In his campaign for governor, Rauner has changed

his stance on the minimum wage, initially saying he’d want to cut the state rate and then later saying he’d support raising it under certain circumstances. Until October 2012, Rauner was chairman of GTCR, a private equity firm with millions of dollars of investments with state retirement funds. The complaint specifically mentions the one for public schoolteachers. The law bars contractor contributions for two years even after they’ve left the company in question. Rauner’s disclosure statements show he still has a partnership interest in GTCR, so contributing to his campaign is also a conflict of interest, Carrigan said. Through a spokesman, Rauner dismissed the argument. “It’s clear that Pat Quinn’s allies are now beyond the

point of desperation,” spokesman Mike Schrimpf said in a prepared statement. “The complaint fails on its face and is conceptually ridiculous. Bruce first contributed to his exploratory committee nearly a year ago, and the government union bosses, finally filing this now, only confirms that they know Bruce will defeat Quinn and shake up the status quo in Springfield.” A spokesman for the inspector general did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The office typically does not confirm or deny investigations. The AFL-CIO, which announced in January its plans to “do everything possible” to keep Rauner from the nomination, has undertaken an education campaign among its more than 100,000 Republican members, union spokesman Bill Looby said.

8STATE BRIEFS Quinn redirects party funding to charity

Bill would tighten rules for pseudoephedrine

CHAMPAIGN – Gov. Pat Quinn redirected campaign money to charities after it was revealed earlier this week that a Democratic county organization led by a state employee contributed to his campaign. Last summer, the Douglas County Democratic Party received a $10,000 donation from Foresight Energy Services Co. of St. Louis, a coal mining company with operations in Illinois, which they split among several candidates, including Quinn. Douglas County Democratic Party Chairman Michael L. Woods is also an employee of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. Quinn’s campaign received $7,500 in contributions from the county Democratic organization, including $5,000 in cash. His campaign on Wednesday announced they redirected the campaign contribution. Leslie Wertheimer, a spokeswoman for Quinn’s campaign, said the campaign doesn’t accept contributions from state employees.

PEORIA – Legislation proposed by a state senator would require anyone with a cold to get a doctor’s prescription to buy medicine containing pseudoephedrine. The bill, sponsored by Peoria Democrat Sen. Dave Koehler, would impact any cold and flu drug with pseudoephedrine, a necessary ingredient in the manufacture of methamphetamine, according to a report by The (Peoria) Journal-Star. State law already requires any drug containing pseudoephedrine to be kept behind pharmacy counters. Stores record the IDs of people who buy the medicine and there are limits on how much can be purchased. The proposal is expected to face resistance in Illinois, especially from drug manufacturers and retailers, officials said.

Cullerton voices support for online gambling in Ill. SPRINGFIELD – Illinois Senate President John Cullerton says the state could get needed revenue by legalizing online gambling, but he acknowledged getting approval would be difficult. The Chicago Democrat has pushed for online gambling for two years, since the Justice Department OK’d the idea. “People are already gambling, and we’re not making any of the money,” Cullerton said after a committee hearing Wednesday on the matter. “There are other states that are just getting started that are bringing in some money. So that may play a role in it when we try to pass a budget.”

Suit: ‘Sadistic violence’ at Cook County Jail CHICAGO – Guards at one of the nation’s largest jails systematically engage in “sadistic violence and brutality” against inmates, according to a federal class-action lawsuit filed on Thursday. But an official responsible for overseeing the Cook County Jail, Sheriff Tom Dart, told reporters the lawsuit was an exaggeration and, taken as a whole, was “a fictional account.” Lawyers filed the 59-page suit in U.S. District Court in Chicago on behalf of male inmates at the sprawling Chicago jail, which the filing says is overcrowded with 2,000 male inmates at any one time. The lawsuit says officers sometimes threaten inmates with code words for beatings, asking if they want “an elevator ride,” where cameras can’t record attacks.

8NATION BRIEFS Senate blocks Dems’ bill boosting vets’ benefits WASHINGTON – A divided Senate on Thursday derailed Democratic legislation that would have provided $21 billion for medical, education and job-training benefits for the nation’s veterans. The bill fell victim to election-year disputes over spending and fresh penalties against Iran. Each party covets the allegiance of the country’s 22 million veterans and their families, and each party blamed the other for turning the effort into a chess match aimed at forcing politically embarrassing votes. Republicans used a procedural move to block the bill after Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee Chairman Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., chided GOP lawmakers about their priorities. Democrats noted that more than two dozen veterans

groups supported the legislation. But Republicans said they still favor helping veterans while also wanting to be prudent about federal spending.

Republican factions split over Arizona bill PHOENIX – Gov. Jan Brewer’s veto of a bill allowing businesses to refuse service to gays exposed a fracture within the Republican Party between social conservatives and the GOP’s pro-business wing, a split that Democrats hope to turn into a midterm election campaign issue. The Republican governor has made job creation and business expansion the centerpiece of her administration, and she was more than willing to disregard the wishes of social conservatives amid protests from major corporations such as American Airlines and Apple Inc. As a

result, the GOP base was left dispirited, and opponents of gay marriage are struggling to find their footing after significant losses in the courts and statehouses.

Married man to become Maronite priest in U.S. ST. LOUIS – The new priest at St. Raymond’s Maronite Cathedral in St. Louis is a married man. Wissam Akiki was ordained Thursday night in the church near downtown St. Louis. Several hundred people – including Akiki’s wife and 8-year-old daughter – were on hand. Eastern Catholic churches in the Middle East and Europe ordain married men. However, the Vatican banned the practice in America in the 1920s. Over the years, popes have made exceptions on a case-by-case basis for married men to be-

Documents reveal joking about N.J. traffic jams TRENTON, N.J. – The latest documents released by a New Jersey legislative committee looking into a political payback scandal surrounding Gov. Chris Christie show two figures at the heart of the case making running jokes about traffic jams as a way to strike at enemies. The documents do not provide any new evidence about how deep into the plot Christie or his top staffers may have been, though they do reinforce the idea that some of the people involved were cavalier about what they were doing. Three weeks before the tie-ups near the George Washington Bridge,

the two officials exchanged text messages about a rabbi who had bothered them. Bridget Kelly, then an aide to Christie, was apparently joking when she sent an Aug. 19 text saying: “We cannot cause traffic problems in front of his house, can we?” David Wildstein, who was Christie’s No. 2 man at the Port Authority, responded: “Flights to Tel Aviv all mysteriously delayed.” He appeared to be joking, although the Port Authority does run the major New York City-area airports, as well.

Sources: Phone system failed in LAX shooting LOS ANGELES – A dispatcher at Los Angeles International Airport couldn’t immediately send police to a shooting last year

because the emergency phone system didn’t automatically provide a location, according to an investigation that also found broken panic buttons that are supposed to call for help. A screening supervisor picked up the “red phone” seconds after shots were fired in the sprawling airport’s Terminal 3 last Nov. 1, but she fled as the gunman approached with his high-powered rifle. Because no one was on the other end of the line to provide details, the dispatcher was helpless, according to two officials briefed on preliminary findings of a review of the emergency response. They spoke only on condition of anonymity because the final report won’t be released until next month.

Jenner cast lone ‘no’ vote on tuition hike • TUITION Continued from page A1 the increase could prevent those services from getting cut if the college had to look to slash funding. Chairman Ron Parrish said it was the student testimony that changed his mind on the increase. “I was adamantly opposed to increasing tuition … I have changed my position on that,” Parrish said of the influence of the student testimony. “I think we need to be ultrasensitive in the future to cutting these [student services] activities.” Trustee Chris Jenner was the only board member to vote against it, saying the price

of higher education is out of control and McHenry County College needs to maintain its affordability. Jenner’s opposition to college cost was supported on the next vote when the board shot down a $5 infrastructure fee that would go toward chipping away at $41 million in deferred maintenance. Jenner was joined by Parrish and trustee Molly Walsh in opposition to the fee, while trustees Linda Liddell, Mary Miller and Cynthia Kisser supported it. Diversiev said the student senate also supported the infrastructure fee. “I view this is as another tuition increase,” Parrish said. “I already voted for one, I won’t vote for another.”

Dillard, Brady both lag in fundraising, polling • DEBATE Continued from page A1 lost twice and the third time’s not a charm. Mr. Rauner spent millions on TV ads, and like his watch, talk is cheap. And Dan Rutherford has had a tough couple of weeks which he blames on the dirty tricks of Mr. Rauner,” Dillard said during the debate, which was hosted by the League of Women Voters of Illinois, WLS-TV and Univision. The candidates were asked about pension reform, the income tax increase, gay marriage and their ads. But the focus was more personal than previous debates. Rutherford, of Chenoa, addressed allegations of misconduct in his opening statement. He has spent recent weeks defending himself after a former employee filed a lawsuit alleging sexual harassment and being forced to do campaign work while on state time. “These allegations are false. I know candidly how tough this has made my campaign,” he said. “The truth isn’t going to be known until after this election is over with. But it will be.” Rauner, who portrays himself as an outsider who will go up against “government union bosses,” alluded to the others

as career politicians, prompting each of them to defend their leadership and time in Springfield. Rutherford was a longtime lawmaker before he was elected treasurer in 2010. “I’m running against the culture of failure in Springfield,” said Rauner, a venture capitalist from Winnetka. But Brady questioned Rauner’s allegiance to the Republican Party by bringing up Rauner’s ties to Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, a Democrat. Rauner is friends with Emanuel and he has contributed money to support him and other Democrats. Brady, of Bloomington, defended his record as a legislator in Springfield. He also said he has learned lessons since winning the GOP nomination but losing the governor’s office to Quinn in 2010, making him best suited to take on again Quinn in November. “I don’t think I’m part of the problem either,” Brady said. The debate comes as Dillard and Brady lag behind the others in fundraising and polls, something both state lawmakers acknowledged but said they weren’t worried about. Brady said his ads will hit the airwaves next week, while Dillard has touted recent endorsements from teachers unions.

Report: Crimean airport seized The ASSOCIATED PRESS SIMFEROPOL, Ukraine – Dozens of armed men in military uniforms seized an airport in the capital of Ukraine’s strategic Crimea region early Friday, a report said. Witnesses told the Interfax news agency that the 50 or so men were wearing the same gear as the ones who seized government buildings in the city of Simferopol on Thursday and raised the Russian flag. The report said the men with “Russian Navy ensigns” first surrounded the Simferopol Airport’s domestic flights terminal. The report could not be immediately confirmed. A woman who later answered the phone at the airport said “no comment,” and the airport’s website listed the morning’s first flight, to Moscow, as boarding on schedule. The events in the Crimea region have heightened tensions with neighboring Russia, which scrambled fighter jets to patrol borders in the first stirrings of a potentially dangerous confrontation reminiscent of Cold War brinksmanship. Russia also has granted shelter to Ukraine’s fugitive president, Viktor Yanukovych, after recent deadly protests in Kiev swept in a new government.

Uganda slapped with aid cuts over anti-gay law KAMPALA, Uganda – Uganda’s government has been hit with substantial aid cuts after the president enacted a severe anti-gay measure over which some Western governments

While the government in Kiev, led by a pro-Western technocrat, pledged to prevent any national breakup, there were mixed signals in Moscow. Russia pledged to respect Ukraine’s territorial integrity. Yanukovych was said to be holed up in a luxury government retreat, with a news conference scheduled Friday near the Ukrainian border. He has not been seen publicly since Saturday. On Thursday, as masked

gunmen wearing unmarked camouflage uniforms erected a sign reading “Crimea is Russia” in Simferopol, Ukraine’s interim prime minister declared the Black Sea territory “has been and will be a part of Ukraine.” The conflict sent Ukraine’s finances plummeting further, prompting Western leaders to prepare an emergency financial package. Yanukovych, whose abandonment of closer ties to Europe in favor of a bailout

loan from Russia set off three months of protests, finally fled by helicopter last week as his allies deserted him. The humiliating exit was a severe blow to Russian President Vladimir Putin, who had been celebrating his signature Olympics even as Ukraine’s drama came to a crisis. The Russian leader has long dreamed of pulling Ukraine – a country of 46 million people considered the cradle of Russian civilization – closer into Moscow’s orbit.

had warned of consequences. At least three European countries are withdrawing millions in direct support to Uganda’s government, which depends on donors for about 20 percent of its budget. The Dutch government said

in a statement seen Thursday that it is suspending aid to Uganda’s government but will continue supporting nongovernmental groups, joining Norway and Denmark in taking such action. Norway is withdrawing $8 million but will

increase its support to human rights and democracy defenders, while Denmark is restructuring aid programs worth $8.64 million away from the Ugandan government and over to private actors and groups.

8WORLD BRIEF “It’s absolutely horrific,” Hoff Scenes of death in South Sudan: ‘No humanity here’ said this week as he led a heavMALAKAL, South Sudan – Houses have been burned to the ground. Hospital patients have been shot by armed rebels while lying in their beds. Dozens of corpses litter the streets. “This is about revenge now. There is no humanity here,” said Col. Jan Hoff, an officer in Norway’s army who has served in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. South Sudan, he said, is the worst he’s seen.

ily armed U.N. convoy through the streets of Malakal, the capital of Upper Nile state. “This is tribe against tribe. In Syria it was foreign fighters against the government. Here I don’t think it’s about the government.” Hoff said he counted 30 bodies on a recent day. A colleague had counted 70. The dead include both civilians and soldiers. Human Rights Watch said Thursday that both government

and rebel forces are responsible for serious abuses that may amount to war crimes for atrocities committed in Malakal and Bentiu, capital of another state, despite a cease-fire signed in January. Reprisal killings, based on ethnicity, are common. A week ago forces loyal to former vice president Riek Machar retook Malakal in a bloody assault that forced the government army to make what it labeled a tactical withdrawal.

Continued from page A1 “We have discussed our aging, and when we need help that they would be available,” Esther Vadnais said. “My husband and I both feel when we should stop driving, we will.” “If my eyesight got bad, I think I would probably feel that I wasn’t capable of driving,” Vadnais added. Lora Pfeiffer is the owner of All Four Wheels Driving school in Algonquin. She said the same message she gives to her students about driving applies to everyone. “It’s a privilege, not a right,” Pfeiffer said. Pfeiffer’s mother lost her license when she was 75 because of mistakes she made while trying to get her license renewed. Family members now have to take Pfeiffer’s mother to the grocery store and doctor’s appointments, Pfeiffer said. Pfeiffer said the ability to react in situations diminishes as people get older. Pfeiffer said seniors need to be cognizant of their vision and hearing ability as they get older because drivers need to be able to hear sirens and see other vehicles. “Everything we teach

Driving safety class AARP has scheduled a two-day refresher course for drivers age 50 and older. The eight-hour course will review the rules of the road and accident prevention skills. The course will help drivers overcome the effects of aging in driving. Most insurance companies offer discounts on insurance when the course is completed, the news release said. Pre-registration and attendance on both days are required. The class is from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. March 19 and 21 at the Algonquin Township Office at 3702 Northwest Highway in Crystal Lake. The cost is $15 for members and $20 for nonmembers. For information, call 847-6392700, ext. 7.

By the numbers • 1.3 million drivers in the state are age 65 and older. • 239,000 drivers are between the ages of 75 and 79. • 260,000 drivers are over age 80.

parents with the difficult decision, every situation is different and based on the individual, Pfeiffer said. If there is a history of accidents or close-call situations, children should be straightforward with their parents and say “this is something we need to consider maybe not doing anymore,” Pfeiffer said. Three to four years ago, Cary resident Malinda Bacchi noticed her husband, Michael, 73, didn’t see a turn and didn’t see a car coming while driving back from Wisconsin. “He decided that it wasn’t worth killing someone to keep driving,” Malinda Bacchi said. With Michael Bacchi not driving, it has an effect on the family, Malinda Bacchi said. “If he wants to go anyplace he has to have someone who’s willing to take him, or that’s available to take him,” Malinda Bacchi said. For Malinda, who is 71, she is keeping some things in mind to look for about herself. “If I would get to the point where I couldn’t judge distance, judge how close I was to a car next to me, even pulling into the garage, how I’m parking the car in the garage, I think maybe I should go for a class or get my eyes checked again,” Malinda Bacchi said.

State Rep. 65th District (Republican): Ugaste In the Republican primary race for the state’s 65th Representative District, three candidates are vying for votes: attorneys Daniel Ugaste and Steven Andersson and business owner Debbie Miller. The 65th District covers areas of Batavia, Geneva, St. Charles, South Elgin, Pingree Grove, Hampshire and Huntley. Incumbent Republican Timothy Schmitz is not seeking re-election. Ugaste said his top priorities would include balancing Illinois’ checkbook so bills could be paid on time, reducing state debt and lowering debt service payments. He also would strive to reform workers’ compensation laws in the state to make them fair for business owners and workers. A member of the Geneva Public Library District Board, Andersson would place an emphasis on balancing the budget, and he would push to implement term limits for elected officials at all levels of state government. Miller said her goals would include instituting policies to make sure Illinois supports businesses, which could lead to more jobs, and she would want to make sure Illinois has the best schools, community colleges, universities and trade and technical schools. Andersson and Ugaste are strong candidates, but we believe Ugaste has the edge in this race. He describes himself as having “a very conservative view of government, both fiscally and socially, which reflects the views of the majority of the people in this state representative district.” Ugaste is endorsed.

8ANOTHER VIEW

Rutherford’s integrity at stake Illinois Treasurer Dan Rutherford’s refusal to release the results of a taxpayer-funded investigation into sexual harassment allegations against him – results he previously promised to release – casts doubt his ability to handle the pressure and expectations that come with being governor. Until recently, Rutherford was considered the No. 2 Republican candidate for governor in a four-man field. However, his handling of a still-unfolding political crisis involving accusations of political coercion and sexual harassment against him shows he is not ready for prime time. Rutherford insists he hasn’t read the results and has no idea what they say. What he’s succeeded in doing is putting his own interests before those of Illinois taxpayers. The investigation cost $250 an hour, with a final cost cap of $19,999. Nothing is stopping him from going against his attorney’s advice on this matter of public information and keeping his promise to Illinoisans. The (Springfield) State Journal-Register

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Gun-free zones dangerous To the Editor: McHenry County College trustees toyed with letting only two parking lots be used for locked gun storage. This tells killers where they could find guns and where they may safely use them. This is unacceptable. Trustees Linda Liddell and Chris Jenner justly ridiculed the idea. Gun-free zones can be inviting shooting galleries. I fault the Illinois General Assembly. It should have been silent on campus concealed carry. It does not uphold the Second Amendment’s intent. For proof, look at the majority of other states. Murders with firearms occur with noticeable frequency at gun-free campuses. Victims are unarmed. Campus gun bans result in innocent bloodshed. Illinois making concealed carry off limits also makes campuses vulnerable. Legislators should be committed to an asylum until they accept their sworn duty to uphold the Constitution they violate with impunity. The General Assembly surely has no interest in promoting public safety. Eighteen-year-olds in the military safely use weapons to defend and kill. Why should college campuses

be gun free for them? Why should our returning soldiers and students be required to surrender their weapons when Illinois’ murder rate is greater than that in the Middle East? Thaddeus Kochanny Ingleside

Support Zinke, McClellan To the Editor: I am the past chairman of the Nunda GOP and a Republican precinct committeeman. I highly recommend Andy Zinke for sheriff and Mary McClellan for county clerk. I personally know both of these fine people, and they are qualified for the positions they seek. Bill Prim supported the Democrat candidate for sheriff, Mike Mahon, in 2010. Now he proclaims to be a Republican and reformer. We should be paying attention to the safety of our citizens instead of politics. Nick Provenzano is a career politician. This should send up red flags to anyone concerned with clean government and honest elections. A man that partisan and biased simply cannot be trusted to supervise honest elections.

the clerk’s office has fallen behind times in election technology and ballot access. He also stated he would like to see the election process be faster and install modems on voting machines. He is a career politician with absolutely nothing to offer. Our tabulators have had modems for the past 14 years, enabling our judges to balance voters ballots hours earlier. Kathy Schultz initiated these electronic tabulators with modems to accommodate the phenomenal growth that our county has experienced the past 20 years.

Zealots crusade to deprive the disabled of protections WASHINGTON – Any suspicion that the political right, after suffering a defeat on the debt ceiling and facing threats from business donors, is losing its clout can be dismissed by the fight over the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The treaty has been ratified by 141 countries. It is backed by the White House, former President George H.W. Bush, the major U.S. disability and veterans advocacy groups and American businesses. Senate Republicans, however, already defeated the treaty in 2012, and it now faces an uphill slog to get the two-thirds vote needed for ratification. Right-wing critics, led by former Sen. Rick Santorum, the Heritage Foundation and homeschoolers, charge that adopting it would allow global enforcers to dictate the treatment of Americans with disabilities or the permissibility of home schooling, and ease access to abortion. In reality, the treaty is modeled on the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990. It states that nations must ensure that people with disabilities get the same rights and are treated with same dignity as all others. It might well pressure other countries to adopt U.S. standards.

Proponents say American leadership is important, a demonstration of the soft power of ideals and values. If passage emboldens other nations to elevate their standards, it will make life easier for Americans with disabilities, including veterans, when traveling outside the U.S. Despite strong opposition from Senate Republicans, led by Tennessee’s Bob Corker, the treaty has a distinctively Republican flavor. The Americans With Disabilities Act was the signature domestic achievement of George H.W. Bush’s presidency, and the U.N. treaty was negotiated by his son’s administration. The most important champion is former Senate Republican leader Bob Dole, a disabled World War II veteran; it is supported by another former party leader, Bill Frist, a physician. Its chief backers in the current Senate are John Barrasso of Wyoming, another physician who is one of the most conservative members of the chamber, and John McCain of Arizona, a disabled veteran. Veterans’ organizations backing the treaty include the American Legion, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America and the Wounded Warrior Project. It is embraced by

VIEWS Albert R. Hunt the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and major companies such as AT&T Inc., Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Coca- Cola Co., Nike Inc. and IBM Corp. The opposition from Santorum, Heritage, a slice of the home-schooling movement and a few right-wing Catholic organizations seems, on the surface, a mismatch. Yet these groups are very vocal, and they capitalize on many Republicans’ fears of challenges from the right. The disabilities community isn’t that well organized, nor does it rank among the big campaign contributors. Corker says his opposition is based solely on the dangers the treaty poses to national sovereignty and the threat that it will supersede U.S. law and states’ rights. He cites a 1920 Supreme Court ruling on a migratory-bird treaty as precedent. Under the Tennessee Republican’s reasoning, the U.S. couldn’t join any treaty involving human rights, civil rights, gay rights or disability rights. In the Senate, supporters are writing in “reservations, under-

standings and declarations,” attesting that nothing in the treaty affects current U.S. law. This is a common practice, the Economist magazine notes, for treaties ratified by the U.S. and other countries. It makes the Corker argument specious, says Richard Thornburgh, who was attorney general during George H.W. Bush’s administration and is an advocate for the treaty. “These reservations attached to a treaty are part of the treaty,” he said. “There is nothing in this treaty that would allow what critics allege.” Dole, who showed up in his wheelchair in 2012 to lobby (unsuccessfully) for the pact, says that ratification is such an easy call that when he ran the Senate, it “would have passed by voice vote.” He remains optimistic that it will pass this time, though he says he is worried because “a few senators aren’t returning my calls.” There probably are 61 votes for the treaty. That number includes all the Senate Democrats plus six Republicans: McCain, Barrasso, New Hampshire’s Kelly Ayotte, Lisa Murkowksi of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine and Mark Kirk of Illinois, who is disabled after suffering a stroke.

It needs six more Republicans to pass. The targets are the two senators from Tennessee – Corker, a thoroughly decent man and good lawmaker who has come to a dubious conclusion, and Lamar Alexander, who really isn’t threatened by his right-wing primary challenger – the senators from Dole’s Kansas – Jerry Moran and Pat Roberts, who is scared stiff of his conservative challenger – and those from nonright-wing states such as Ohio’s Rob Portman, who is closer to the Bush family than any other lawmaker, and Pennsylvania’s Pat Toomey. Mike Enzi, who no longer faces a challenge from Dick Cheney’s daughter, could join Barrasso, his Wyoming colleague; Georgia’s Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson have shown an admirable willingness to break with right-wing zealotry. Supporters may not get any of these votes, which Tim Shriver, the chairman of the Special Olympics, finds astounding. “What values here do these opponents not believe in?” he asks. “This treaty brings to the table a place where America is the shining light on the hill.” • Albert R.

WONDER LAKE FIRE DAMAGES HOME WONDER LAKE – A fire that spread from a basement fireplace up two floors to an attic Thursday night left a Wonder Lake home uninhabitable. The Wonder Lake Fire Protection District received a call just before 7 p.m. for a structure fire at 3314 E. Lake Shore Drive, Wonder Lake. After arriving, firefighters were able to put out the fire on the first and second floors, but called for help from surrounding departments when the fire spread to the attic, said Mike Weber, deputy chief of Wonder Lake Fire. Two residents and a dog escaped without injury. Wonder Lake Fire Chief Skip Sorensen said one of the house’s residents had fallen asleep with the fire going. When he awoke, the fire had spread to the walls surrounding the fireplace. It spread up a floor through the chimney, eventually reaching the attic, Sorensen said. “The guys stopped it before it started going across the attic,” Sorensen said. “Kudos to the crew, that’s for sure.” Emergency units from Richmond, Hebron, Spring Grove, Woodstock, McHenry, Crystal Lake, Fox Lake, Nunda, Twin Lakes, Wis., Cary and Marengo responded, Weber said.

Hairstylist Jenna Wallner with Mario Tricoci Hair Salon styles the hair of Joann Knaack of Cary on Thursday during the Centegra Health Strong Woman Event in Crystal Lake. The event provides education, screenings, entertainment and empowerment for women to make their health a priority. Attendees learn how to live longer, happier lives by bringing to their attention the various services available in the region.

CRYSTAL LAKE – When Lori Decker stepped on a balance testing machine Thursday to determine her risk for falling, it was a step toward getting a clearer picture of her overall health. The balance test was one of dozens of health exhibits at the eighth annual Centegra Health Strong Woman Event, a program designed to give health information across a variety of topics to McHenry County women. “Everybody should be aware of all their health issues,” said Decker, a 49-yearold Algonquin resident. “You have to stay up with the latest technology, what they have to offer, the new services available. And you get that here.” More than 500 women filed through the Crystal Lake Holiday Inn doors for the event, which featured physician presentations on metabolic syndrome, back pain and building better brain health. “Today is all about the wellness of the women of McHenry County and the surrounding area,” said Kelly Hazenfield, director of marketing for Centegra Hospital. “It’s all about ensuring that women are staying well, that they know their options, and

supporting them in being healthy.” The event was open to all ages. “We see a broad range of women,” Hazenfield said. “It’s more the baby boomer demographic. That’s the time of your life where you’re typically more concerned about your health. But I’ve talked to people about babies. I’ve talked to people about physician appointments. … It’s so important in this day and age to be aware of the things you need to do to be healthy.” The keynote speaker, Dr. Cynthia Green, gave steps to improving memory health and cognitive fitness. “Being physically healthy, being physically active, maintaining a good weight and a good diet, that supports your heart health and your brain health,” Green said. “Being intellectually engaged, pursuing actives that keep us challenged over our lifetime … is what this event is about.” Green said women of all ages can benefit from health events. “Brain health matters at every age,” she said. “There’s evidence that even in utero there are things that happen

Closing arguments set in Oliver trial By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Closing arguments are expected Friday morning after attorneys from both sides rested their cases in the trial for the man accused of attacking women he met through Craigslist. Charles R. Oliver, 45, is accused of raping the women who agreed to have sex with him in exchange for money. Before prosecutors rested Thursday, they played for jurors a jailhouse phone call between the Woodstock man and his father. Oliver made statements on the call, telling his father he videotaped his sexual encounters with the women. “We got to fighting in the house. … and because I was aggressive they’re claiming rape,” he said. “The girls’ stories are inconsistent, but there’s some truth to them,” he said. Oliver is charged in multiple cases of raping women – many of whom were prostitutes – that he met on Craigslist or other websites. Attorneys expect

to try each case separately. In all, there are eight alleged victims. For the case being tried this week, the alleged victim previously testified she and Oliver agreed to have sex for $200. She met him in November 2012 at a Rosemont train station, and he drove her to his Woodstock home. Once at the home, she performed a sex act on Oliver, who then led her to the baseCharles R. ment. In a Oliver locked room in the basement, he grabbed the woman’s head and pushed her to a kneeling position. The only way she would get out of the basement was if she played by Oliver’s rules, the woman said, adding she was scared. Previous police testimony revealed the lock to the room was reversed – meaning the locking mechanism was on the outside of the door and it needed a tool, like a pin, to be opened.

Cold expected to linger in March By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com With snow expected to hit McHenry County again this weekend, many residents are likely wondering if this winter will ever end. And according to AccuWeather meteorologists, signs of spring aren’t coming anytime soon. AccuWeather predicts the area may see midwinter cold last until the third week of March. And after a brief warm-up, temperatures are

expected to dip again. “I think in the middle part of March, around the 16th to the 23rd, days will be at or above average,” AccuWeather meteorologist Mark Paquette said. “I could see you guys reaching [50 degrees] or exceeding that. But then around the 24th, temperatures may go back below normal.” The average high for this time of year is 39 degrees with a low of 24. At the end of March, the average high is 53 degrees, a mark we are not

likely to hit, Paquette said. “The overall trend through [March] will be far more cold days than normal days,” he said. “Never mind mild.” One factor contributing to the extended winter season is the ice-covered Great Lakes, Paquette said. With nearly 90 percent of the Great Lakes covered with ice, the air coming off the water will remain frigid for some time.

HOLIDAY HILLS: MORE REVENUE SOUGHT

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

RINGWOOD: ORDINANCE PASSED

Holiday Hills considers outsourcing Village tries new method to settle violation hearings to Island Lake with violators By EMILY K. COLEMAN

ecoleman@shawmedia.com

HOLIDAY HILLS – Some Holiday Hills officials are hoping to capture more of the revenue from ordinance violations, but with only six to seven ordinance violations a month, its not worth it for the village to set up its own adjudication process, its village president said. Instead, the Village Board is looking at a proposed

agreement with neighboring Island Lake, which already has its own adjudication hearing process, Village President Dan Drury said. Adjudication hearings are a way for municipalities to bypass the county court system for ordinance violations and keep more of the revenue from fines, and with budgets staying tight, more villages are looking at adopting the hearings. The adjudication process

has benefits to violators, too, its advocates say. An ordinance violation doesn’t show up on a driver’s record with the Secretary of State and can cost less than going to court, Drury said. Bringing the process inhouse has its costs. The municipality has to hire a clerk and a judge and that would be “very expensive,” Drury said. How much the proposed deal with Island Lake would

cost hasn’t been worked out yet, Drury said. The villages’ attorneys are still working on the agreement. The two options on the table include a flat monthly fee and a smaller monthly rate plus a per-use fee, he said. Drury doesn’t have a timeline on when he expects the agreement to be brought before the Village Board for a final vote, but he said he thinks they are “very close.”

NORTHERN ILLINOIS: CALLS MAY COME FROM BLOCKED NUMBERS

Better Business Bureau warns of utilities scam NORTHWEST HERALD The Better Business Bureau is warning Northern Illinois residents of a recent scam involving individuals claiming to be utility company workers. The scam artists claim to be from either ComEd or Nicor and have called consumers and businesses and demanded they

make payments on alleged delinquent accounts. The callers ask that the consumer purchase a gift card or a Green Dot card and then call back to make a payment. “If a consumer receives one of these calls they should never provide any personal or financial information to the caller,” Steve J. Bernas, president

and CEO of the Better Business Bureau serving Chicago and Northern Illinois, said in a news release. “Instead they should contact their utility company’s customer service department and verify that a call was made.” The BBB has received numerous calls regarding the scam, including Sports Page

Bar in Rockford that said it has received several calls assigned to the Pontiac area. Consumers who called the BBB said the calls came from a blocked number, the release said. If you suspect that a call is fraudulent or you may be a victim of a scam, you should contact your local police department.

Wellness Network for growth and member satisfaction. The health insurance company named the network as one of the top three providers in growth from December to January and granted the network a blue ribbon for member satisfaction in 2013. The blue ribbon recognition is based on a customer satisfaction survey by Blue Cross Blue Shield. The survey focused on

office visits, waiting times, the quality of care received and a physician’s explanation of medical tests and treatments. Groups that received a 75 percent or higher satisfactory rating received the honor. The Centegra Health and Wellness Network is an association of hundreds of primary care physicians and specialists in the McHenry County area.

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com RINGWOOD – Inoperable junk cars, a lack of enclosures around trash containers and other ordinance violations haven’t been worth the cost of taking violators to court for the tiny village of Ringwood. But Ringwood Village Board officials hope a new ordinance passed last week will give them a middle ground between going to court and doing nothing. Under the approved ordinance, violators will be able to settle with the village without the village having to file with the court. The ordinance was recommended by the village’s new building inspector, who was hired about a year ago, as an alternative to another method area municipalities are using to bypass the county court system for ordinance violations. These municipalities

are setting up adjudication hearings, which have their own village-hired judge, clerk and prosecutor. That method makes more sense for villages that are bigger than Ringwood, said Village President Rick Mack, who voted for the settlement ordinance. “Obviously, we’re very cost conscious,” he said, adding the approved ordinance should be less expensive and more efficient than the other options. Trustee Brian Pytel had the sole no vote, but his issue had more to do with the underlying inspection process. Trustee Gary Reinwall was absent from the meeting. Pytel wants the village to track what initiates the violation, whether its an email or phone complaint or just an observation by the inspector, he said. “It should be transparent to the public,” he said.

Fox Lake Harbor, a boat dealership at 400 E.

SPRINGFIELD – A oneyear freeze on township tax levies is on its way to the full Illinois House. House Bill 5311, sponsored by Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, seeks a 2015 freeze of the general fund levy for townships with fewer than 100,000 people and are subject to the tax cap. All 17 of McHenry County’s townships fall into that category. The bill cleared the House Counties and Townships Committee on a 4-1 vote Thursday. “Every day we hear more and more talk from Springfield about raising this tax or that tax,” McSweeney said in a statement. “With the movement of this bill, we can finally tell our constituents that

there is a real tax relief proposal on the horizon.” Investigations in recent years, including a 2008 study by Roosevelt University and a 2011 investigation by the Better Government Association, have revealed that many township governments have accumulated hefty cash reserves, in many cases more than a year’s worth. Bills in recent years aimed at capping governments’ ability to raise property taxes in a down economy while housing prices fall have stalled. Northwest Herald stories have revealed that local government lobbying groups whose dues are paid by property taxes have fought tax relief measures. You can read the bill at www.ilga.gov.

according to board documents. The company plans on making more than $2,200 worth of improvements. The village has enough money set aside to cover grants for another nine businesses, Village President Donny Schmit said. So far, no applications have been rejected and several are still under review. The program will “help our business owners improve the appearances of their businesses and do the necessary upgrades,” he said. “Some

of the signs are old and in need of repair.” The facade program was one of the steps the village took last year to boost economic development. Schmit credits another of those changes – the hiring of an economic development company – with bringing in several new businesses, including a couple restaurants, a general merchandise store, an electronic cigarette store and an Ace Hardware, which is set to open May 1.

Phase two engineering process to take about 24 months • NEGOTIATIONS Continued from page B1 why, they made it eminently clear that this decision is due to your ‘CFI’ proposal.” Robey went on to estimate the shopping center, the Centre at Lake in the Hills, will lose $1.3 million in rent income in the first year. He also said the loss in the future sale value of the property could exceed $10 million. Dominick’s closed in December after parent company Safeway pulled out of the Chicago area. Lake in the Hills officials have said two retailers were interested in splitting the Dominick’s space, one of which was a furniture retailer. Robey would neither confirm nor deny that the furniture retailer left the negotiations. Robey said the continu-

ous flow intersection would make access to the four shopping centers at the intersection difficult. Some people would have to travel an extra quarter mile to get to the former Dominick’s location. The proposed continuous flow intersection also leads people to use service roads, used for loading and unloading products at stores, Robey said. “It’s absurd you want people in the neighborhood driving through the loading dock area,” Robey said. County Engineer Joseph Korpalski, who is the director of the McHenry County Division of Transportation, said Robey’s letter is the first the county has received since it began the phase two engineering for the 3.5-mile Randall Road improvement project. He said the county received numerous correspondences during the seven-year

phase one engineering portion of the project. Korpalski said part of the phase two process is talking to as many people as possible about the project. “We look forward to meeting with them to discuss their concerns,” Korpalski said. “We want their input.” Korpalski added any intersection the county designs may change access points. Robey, who has worked in retail shopping centers since 1971, said he was upset when he saw the continuous flow intersection proposal. “I’ve seen what highway changes can do to a retail property,” Robey said. “The traffic engineer, in his desire to enhance the smooth flow of traffic, can be more devastating to retail than not.” Robey said he hopes the county comes up with a plan that allows easier access to the retail shopping at the intersection.

After the basement attack, the two engaged in sex acts, which Oliver recorded. As the trial unfolded this week, jurors watched a 12-minute video of sex between Oliver and the then 22-year-old woman. Oliver’s defense attorney has said the sex was consensual, and that the alleged victim was doing what she had agreed to. Oliver did not testify. The defense called three witnesses, all police officers. Their testimony was used to attack

“I know we have a lot of traffic at the intersection and how it will grow in the future, I can only imagine,” Robey said. “I believe ... any changes they make [should] include in there a way to access into and out of property as to not damage customer access and desirability of being able to get to those properties.” TranSystems is handling the phase two engineering, which includes preparing the project plans that contractors will bid on.

Korpalski said this is an opportunity to review the plans to see if anything may change when it comes to access points to businesses. “That is part of the process,” Korpalski said. “We will be looking at the intersection configuration and impacts on the access points.”

Jurors previously watched six minutes of footage of her sexual encounter with Oliver. On the video, she’s heard resisting him and saying she was scared. Closing arguments will begin at 9 a.m. before the case is given to the jurors to deliberate.

Cary-Grove’s Kayli Trausch hits the ball over the net during a match against Crystal Lake South in September 2012 at CaryGrove. Trausch overcame an illness that gave her migraine headaches and recently committed to play volleyball at Division I Eastern Illinois.

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL

C-G’s Trausch beats illness, picks EIU By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com Kayli Trausch was forced to trade well-lighted, loud gymnasiums for dark, quiet rooms. Trausch, a 6-foot middle blocker for Cary-Grove’s volleyball team, wondered what was going on with her body in the spring. She constantly had migraine headaches, which caused her to miss school and miss most of her club volleyball season with Sky High’s 17 Red team.

Recruiting notes A look at where some other local athletes will be competing in college. PAGE C3 “I would lay in bed weeks at a time,” said Trausch, now a senior. “I had to sit in dark rooms with no sound or anything.” Trausch even left C-G’s prom early, right after dinner, with a splitting headache. No doctor could identify what was wrong until the Trausch

family traveled to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. There, medical personnel finally diagnosed Trausch’s condition as postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome with which people suffer problems from standing up or raising their arms above their heads. Trausch was put on beta blockers and recovered in time for C-G’s volleyball season. This week she committed to NCAA Division I Eastern Illinois to play volleyball on an athletic scholarship. She will sign her

NCAA national letter of intent with the Panthers on April 1. Once she had the medication to combat POTS, Trausch recovered quickly. She went to summer camp with the Trojans and played in the high school season in the fall. Trausch suffered a few headaches during the volleyball season but said they were nothing compared to what she experienced before. “Oh, my gosh, it was one of the best feelings [to get back],” she said.

CLASS 4A CRYSTAL LAKE SOUTH SECTIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Boylan stops Huntley

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com So, remember that plan where Johnsburg gets rerouted to the Class 3A Richmond-Burton Regional next week and Chicago Uplift is suspended by the IHSA? Scratch that. The Titans are back in. And Johnsburg is headed to the Ridgewood Regional, 47 miles away, instead of the 7-mile trip to R-B. The IHSA board of diMike rectors heard Toussaint appeals from Uplift and two Johnsburg’s other Class 3A boys basketschools – Chiball coach cago Bogan and called the Hyde Park – on IHSA’s decision to revert Thursday afto the original ternoon and let the three teams schedule for back into the two Class postseason tour3A regionals nament, which involving starts Monday. local teams Uplift played “an absolute in four tourjoke.” naments, an IHSA violation, while Bogan and Hyde Park each played in one too many regular-season games. Instead, the teams were let back into the tournament, but the head coaches were suspended. Uplift (23-4) is the No. 2 seed in the Antioch Sectional and now will play at 6 p.m. Tuesday against the winner of Monday’s play-in game between Chicago CICS-Northtown and Chicago Senn. No. 7 R-B will play No. 10 Lakes in the 8 p.m. game. “After thoughtful and deliberate consideration, the board ultimately felt that a scheduling error by the coaches and administration was not a severe enough infraction that it should result in the team losing the opportunity to play in the postseason,” IHSA assistant executive director Kurt Gibson said. No. 14 Johnsburg now plays No. 19 Chicago Sullivan at 7 p.m. Monday at Ridgewood. Skyhawks coach Mike Toussaint was thrilled Monday when learning Johnsburg was playing at R-B. His reaction Thursday was predictable.

Huntley (27-4) had held the Titans to five points in the second quarter but couldn’t replicate that success in the third when Boylan scored the first eight points to take a 12-point lead. “[Boylan] flat out outplayed us in the second half,” Huntley coach Steve Raethz said. “The run they made to start the third quarter was very difficult to overcome. We were just climbing uphill from there, and it kind of snowballed on us.”

RANGERS 2, BLACKHAWKS 1

Unimpressive restart to season for Hawks Except for final 12 seconds, offense AWOL By MARK POTASH mpotash@suntimes.com NEW YORK – The Blackhawks almost pulled off a miracle Thursday night that would have eclipsed even the ‘’17 seconds’’ comeback in Game 6 against the Bruins in the Stanley Cup Final. They didn’t quite get there in a 2-1 loss to the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden. But after coming ohso-close to sending a ho-hum game into overtime in the final 12 seconds, the Hawks showed they’re still a team that plays best when desperation sets in. “We were a little off,’’ coach Joel Quenneville said. “The timing, the passing and maybe looking for one extra play. It took us a long time to finally break it. But it was an interesting last couple of seconds.’’ Indeed it was. Heading toward their second consecutive 2-0 loss after 126 consecutive games without being shut out, the Hawks scored on newcomer Peter Regin’s goal with 11.6 seconds to go. What looked like consolation nearly turned into an incredible recovery when Patrick Kane had a golden chance at a rebound in front of Cam Talbot but couldn’t con-

Next for the Hawks Pittsburgh at Hawks, 7 p.m. Saturday at Soldier Field, NBC, AM-720 nect in the final seconds. “I felt it,” Talbot said. “It felt like the longest 11 seconds in the world. I didn’t think they were going to get down the ice that quick.’’ For two-plus periods they failed to put any real heat on Talbot, who was starting in place of resting Olympian Henrik Lundqvist. And Talbot, making his 16th NHL start, but only his second since Jan. 21, made every key save right up to the final seconds. He stopped 31 of 32 shots, including 12 of 13 in the third period. Derick Brassard scored on a rebound of his own miss with 9:46 left in the first period. It stayed 1-0 until Rick Nash beat Corey Crawford with a wrist shot for a 2-0 lead with 4:07 left in the third. Still, it came down to the final 11.6 seconds. “You’re just hoping you get a puck at the net and we got a tremendous look at the net,’’

Quenneville said. “It was one of those desperation [situations], just like the first [goal]. We’ve had some crazy finishes [recently], going back to the Bost game. This might have been crazier.’’ The Hawks looked like a team that had not played together in 20 days. “I don’t know – I think it was all right [for the first game back],” defenseman Duncan Keith said. “We did some good things. But overall, I think we know we can be a lot better.” The Hawks (35-12-14) can’t blame it all on rust. They were ineffective offensively in a 2-0 loss to the Coyotes in the final game before the break – though Kane did not play in that game. If their offense depends on desperation to score, they’re in for a long home stretch. The Blackhawks were 0-for-3 on the power play. “I think you’re on to something,’’ Keith said. “I think we can have a little more net presence. Obviously these goaltenders are good. We need to have those guys in front of the net, screening pucks. It’s tough enough to get the shot through. When we do [get them through] we have to have guys in front to screen them a little bit.’’

8SPORTS SHORTS Sharper accused of rape; warrant in Louisiana NEW ORLEANS – Arrest warrants were issued Thursday for former NFL safety Darren Sharper and another man, accusing them of raping two women in New Orleans last year. Sharper also is under investigation in sexual assault cases in Florida, Nevada and Arizona and has pleaded not guilty to rape charges in Los Angeles. The Orleans Parish District Attorney’s Office and New Orleans Sex Crimes detectives obtained the warrants for Sharper, 38, and Erik Nunez, 26. Each faces two counts of aggravated rape, Remi Braden, a police department spokeswoman, said in a news release. Braden said the two women were allegedly raped at the same location Sept. 23. “New information uncovered also indicates that Nunez also allegedly raped both women that night at the same location,” she said. Sharper’s New Orleans-based attorney, Nandi Campbell, and attorney Leonard B. Levine, who represents Sharper in the California case, did not immediately return telephone calls seeking comment.

Incognito tells police he damaged own Ferrari SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Police checking on reported damage to a car belonging to Richie Incognito, the player at the center of the Miami Dolphins’ bullying scandal, said Incognito told

an officer he did the damage himself. Sgt. Mark Clark said the Dolphins guard took responsibility when police contacted him Thursday. He said police first went to Incognito’s home Wednesday after being contacted by TMZ Sports and being given a photo of a black Ferrari with several dents in its hood.

McIlroy fires 63, leads Honda Classic by 1 shot PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – On the course where Rory McIlroy first rose to No. 1, he looked as if he might be headed in that direction again. McIlroy shot a 7-under-par 63 on Thursday, with birdies on the last two holes at PGA National giving him a one-shot lead over Russell Henley after the first round of the Honda Classic. If nothing else, it was big improvement from the last official round he played on PGA National. McIlroy was 7 over through eight holes last year when he became so frustrated with mounting expectations and a slumping game that he walked off the course in the middle of the second round. He said it was a mistake that he would never repeat. Tiger Woods, in his first tournament in a month, couldn’t make a birdie putt early and had to scramble for pars late in his round. A birdie on the last hole gave him a 71, leaving him eight shots behind.

Webb opens LPGA event with 6-under 66 to lead SINGAPORE – Australia’s Karrie Webb shot a 6-under 66 to take the first-round lead in the LPGA Tour’s HSBC Women’s Champions. The Women’s Australian Open winner two weeks ago for her 40th LPGA Tour career, Webb had a bogey-free round on Sentosa Golf Club’s Serapong Course. She won the 2011 event at Tanah Merah. Sweden’s Caroline Hedwall and American Paula Creamer shot 67.

Kings’ Cousins suspended 1 game, fined $20,000 The NBA suspended Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins for one game and fined him $20,000 Thursday for punching an opposing player and verbally abusing an official in a game this week. The league suspended Cousins for punching Houston Rockets guard Patrick Beverley in the stomach with 9:44 remaining in the first quarter of the Kings’ 129-103 loss Tuesday night in Sacramento. Cousins was fined for verbally abusing official Courtney Kirkland and failing to leave the court in a timely manner after an ejection with 8:21 remaining in the third quarter. Cousins will serve his suspension when the Kings visit the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night. – Wire reports

‘’Chaos,’’ Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said. That was his short answer to what he thought would occur if big-time college football were unionized. He spoke candidly after a formal talk at the City Club of Chicago on Thursday. The ongoing effort by Northwestern quarterback Kain Colter to have what Division-I football players do declared labor was the main topic. Amateurs are what D-I players are now called. Or, in NCAA speak, student-athletes. Colter wants them to be called workers. His testimony at a recently ended National Labor Relations Board hearing at the Dirksen Federal Building stated as much, with Colter declaring the NCAA resembles a “dictatorship’’ because “student athletes don’t have a voice, they don’t have a seat at the table.’’ Work weeks of 40 and 50 hours were the norm for football players during season, Colter stated. And his estimates were upheld, even by the defense. Delany, who has been the wildly successful Big Ten commissioner for almost a quarter-century, couldn’t comprehend what such change might wreak. “I mean you have a system now,’’ he said, meaning the no-pay-for-athlete NCAA rules. “But what happens if school A or school B becomes a union school? What would happen? I don’t know. You don’t know. I have no idea. “Places where there are unions, places with no unions, no NCAA, no NCAA rules? I think you would have chaos.’’ You would. At least as it would pertain to the cozy “amateur’’ system that now exists, the one that brings in billions of dollars in ticket and TV revenue for big-time college football and basketball programs, and sates the desire of every autumn couch potato and Big Dance enthusiast. But pays the players nothing. Delany has been remarkably astute in finding the cracks and gaping holes in our country’s terrain of entertainment desire. He brought in bucketloads of cash to the Big Ten through TV and bowl rights, the creation of the Big Ten Network, and, yes, the expansion of the league from 10 teams when he came in to the 14 it now will be. Will the name change to Big Fourteen? Delany snorts. “Big Ten is a brand. Some things aren’t literal.’’ All fine, one supposes. But during this wild ride to success, there has been little new done for football players. And Delany, who played basketball at North Carolina, is aware of this. “I don’t know how I’d feel if I were an ath-

VIEWS Rick Telander lete today,’’ he said. “Everybody’s sensitive to the points being made [by Colter]. But it’s uncharted territory. It reminds me of 1968 – a lot of traditions that are a hundred years old are being challenged.’’ They are. And the colleges brought this on themselves. Seasons that can be 15 games long, coaches making more than their NFL counterparts, players still limited to the barter concept of play-for-a-scholarship – all of it has made conditions ripe for player revolt. Delany often says he is all about “choice’’ for the athletes. “If you don’t want to be in school, don’t be in school,’’ is his simple answer. He believes in the free market. You ask him about the crazy paychecks for coaches and he fires back, “What about it?’’ Then he’ll explain how the Big Ten doesn’t have anti-trust exemption. “Unions and management have anti-trust exemption, the NFL does, so does major-league baseball. We have Title IX and other constraints. “One time we tried to control not only the number of coaches but the amount of money they could make, and it ended up costing us, I think, $55 million in anti-trust settlements.’’ No salary caps, no nothing. It’s the Wild West in big-time football, or as Delany sees it, 1968, the year when the Vietnam War was dividing the nation, when Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy were assassinated, when the Rascals’ song, “People Got to be Free’’ and The 5th Dimension’s “Stoned Soul Picnic’’ were hits. Delany believes athletes should get more representation, better health insurance, and a “lifetime trust’’ for education purposes. But he doesn’t believe the athletes bring anything to the schools compared to what the schools give back. “I believe people will come to the Ohio State-Michigan game even if you could take kids out of the student body [to play]. They’re going to come to that game. I believe that. Same for the Duke-Carolina basketball game. I don’t put that much value in an 18-19-yearold kid as being the guy who made Northwestern a good team. In my heart I believe you can plug players in.’’ Systems beat kids. We’ll see. • Rick Telander is a Chicago Sun-Times sports columnist who can be reached at rtelander@suntimes.com.

BULLS

Teammates stand behind Boozer By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Carlos Boozer’s comments didn’t go unnoticed. After all, it isn’t very often that fourth-quarter playing time has been questioned like it was by the Bulls power forward at the start of February. General manager Gar Forman didn’t like it, and coach Tom Thibodeau liked it even less. But in the locker room? It was embraced. Not because of some sort of coup in the works – that would never happen under Thibodeau’s reign. But because Boozer’s teammates know the sacrifices made. They understand that there is such a selflessness asked of them on a nightly basis that every so often it comes time to vent. “It didn’t bother any of us

at all,” big man Taj Gibson said of Boozer’s remarks. “As a matter of fact, we told him we wanted him to be like that, talk like that. To be honest there are times I want him in there in the fourth. There have been games where I just didn’t have it going, and I wanted him to lift me up. “You look at his defense, and his defense is getting better, so he should be able to do it in the fourth, but it’s up to the coach. Sometimes [Thibodeau] sees things we just don’t see.” All Thibodeau sees right

now is what he calls “the three-headed monster.” Three interchangeable parts in Gibson, Boozer and Joakim Noah, each having a different skillset, but very seldom all playing at the same time. Noah is the constant, while Boozer is the starter and Gibson the finisher. That’s what Boozer has had a problem with. That’s also why his teammates reminded him that unselfishness in the NBA is seldom seen, and it’s a trait that only championship teams display. “This league is full of selfish teams,’’ Gibson said. “That’s why we’re able to do what we do every year, even short-handed. The one thing Tom has established here and put in our heads is when we win, everyone shines. “We don’t tolerate guys not going hard. Those guys don’t stay around here very long.”

BOYS SWIMMING

Jacobs’ Reinbrecht leads local qualifiers By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com Friday marks the first day of the two-day IHSA Boys Swimming State Finals, and five local swimmers from three teams will make the trip to Evanston. Jacobs co-op and McHenry will each send two swimmers, while Cary-Grove co-op will send one. Friday’s preliminary round begins at 3:30 p.m. The top 12 swimmers in each event will advance to Saturday’s finals, which begin at 1 p.m. Below is an overview of the area’s five state qualifiers. JACOBS CO-OP Alex Reinbrecht – 200-yard freestyle and 500 freestyle; Francis Ogaban – 100 backstroke. Reinbrecht: The senior distance swimmer will compete in two individual events during his fourth state meet. He is coming off his best season. He didn’t lose an individual distance race all season. During the Stevenson Sectional on Saturday, the senior swam a personal-best time in the 200 freestyle (1:41.84). His

Similarly, Reinbrecht had the second-fastest qualifying time in the 500 freestyle, another personal-best time, just a little less than two seconds behind Normal University junior Jake Miller. Ogaban: The Hampshire sophomore will be swimming the 100 backstroke in his first state meet. He barely missed

the 100 freestyle state cut at the Stevenson Sectional but later swam his fastest backstroke time. Over the past two weeks, spanning the Fox Valley Conference Invitational and sectionals, Ogaban has gotten faster in the event over the past two weeks and finds himself in the middle of the field with a 53.68. The leader in the event is Libertyville senior Alex Snarski who qualified with a 49.55

CARY-GROVE CO-OP Adam Eibel – 100 breaststroke. Eibel: The Crystal Lake South senior swam at last season’s state meet at New Trier as part of the Trojans’ 200 medley relay, swimming the breaststroke. Eibel will swim Friday as an individual in the 100 breaststroke. He had he fastest time of his career at the Stevenson Sectional. Eibel went under the one-minute mark (59.98) for the first time and is excited to qualify in his final season. “When I would think about where I would be at the end of the season,” Eibel said, “I always envisioned myself swimming at state.” His time puts him almost directly in the middle of the field and is a strong racer who thrives on swimming with good competition, which he will see Friday. The top qualifier in the event is Metea Valley junior Jordan O’Brien, who swam a 56.31 last week. MCHENRY Kevin Braun – 50 freestyle and 100 freestyle; Trey Schopen – 200 freestyle.

BOYS BASKETBALL: JOHNSBURG 56, CL SOUTH 43

By JOE STEVENSON JOHNSBURG – From 6-foot-5, 300-pound fan favorite Zach Kinney’s B.J. Raji-like dance moves in the pregame introductions to a dominant second quarter and beyond, it was a thoroughly enjoyable senior night for Johnsburg. And another frustrating experience for Crystal Lake South. Johnsburg outscored the Gators by 17 points in the second quarter and cruised to a 56-43 victory in the Fox Valley Conference crossover boys basketball game between the fifth-place teams in the Fox and Valley divisions. “Our senior class tries to do a great job with leadership and the younger kids push us and spark us when we need it,” said Skyhawks senior guard Collin Ridout, who led his team with 16 points and seven rebounds. “Tonight we needed it in the second quarter and we came out on top big.” South’s Caleb Johnson hit three 3-pointers early to help the Gators (15-12) to a 13-5 lead, which Johnsburg (8-19) cut to 15-11 by the end of the first quarter. The Skyhawks rolled to a 19-2 second-quarter advantage and were not threatened the rest of the game. “We knew they were going to come out with a bang,” said Johnsburg senior guard Alec Graef, who scored 12 points. “We had to work together and fight our hardest. It means a lot to end our senior season [at home] like this.” South could not get closer than nine points in the second half. “We started to run in the

second quarter,” Skyhawks coach Mike Toussaint said. “We’re better when we get out and run.” Johnson led all players with 17 points and Collin Wagner added nine for South. “Turnovers,” Gators coach Matt LePage said. “We gave Johnsburg a lot of life there in the second quarter. They got some run-outs, got some easy baskets. Sometimes I don’t get us right now. Today, it was 26 turnovers. You’re going to lose with 26 turnovers.” Johnsburg pushed the lead as high as 19 and was able to enjoy the seniors’ final home game. The student section chanted for Kinney, an offensive lineman in football whom teammates call “Chief,” to come back in the game late and hit a pair of free throws. “It was definitely nice to have that fan support and have everybody behind you,” Kinney said. Toussaint gave Kinney a rare start because it was senior night, and the big man delighted Johnsburg’s crowd in the starting lineup introductions. First, Kinney chest-bumped reserve Bailey Stefka at midcourt, then he wiggled his hips like Green Bay Packers defensive tackle Raji did after scoring a touchdown against the Bears in 2010. “I’m not a Packers fan,” Kinney said. “He’s a big guy and I’m a big guy, so I did that same little dance.” Toussaint described Kinney as a really smart, lovable and fun person. “I had no idea he was going to do that,” Toussaint said. “It was the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. It was awesome.”

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Will Sheehey scored 19 of his career-high 30 points in the first half, and Stanford Robinson added a career-best 17 to lead Indiana over No. 20 Iowa, 93-86, Thursday night in a game that was postponed last week. The Hoosiers (16-12, 6-9 Big Ten) went on a 9-0 run in the second half, capped by a 3-pointer from Evan Gordon that gave them a 62-60 lead with 13:13 remaining. Roy Devyn Marble had 20

Penn St. 65, No. 22 Ohio St. 63: At State College, Pa., D.J. Newbill scored 23 points, Tim Frazier added 16 and Penn State (14-14, 5-10) held off a late rally by Ohio State (22-7, 9-7 Big Ten). IPFW 65, W. Illinois 56: At Macomb, Luis Jacobo scored 19 points and grabbed 11 rebounds to lead Indiana-Purdue Fort Wayne (21-9, 9-4 Summit) to a victory over Western Illinois (9-19, 3-10).

KEVIN BRAUN McHenry, so. Braun had several great swims at last weekend’s Stevenson Sectional and qualified for this weekend’s state meet. The sophomore will swim the 50- and 100-yard freestyle events. Braun set personal records in both sprint events, including dropping about two seconds off his 100. He medaled four times in the sectional, two as part of a relay team. – Patrick Mason ting faster over the past month. His time puts him in the middle of the field.

Huntley’s Kayla Barreto shoots during the second quarter of Thursday’s sectional final against Boylan at Crystal Lake South. Huntley lost, 54-39.

Boylan starts strong • HUNTLEY Continued from page C1 Boylan led by as many as 22 points in the third quarter, and Huntley didn’t have the firepower to overcome it. Sam Andrews finished with a teamhigh 13 points, going 11 for 16 at the free-throw line. Huntley also got double-digit production from Ali Andrews (12 points) and sophomore guard Kayla Barreto (10 points), however, the rest of the Red Raiders combined for four points. For Huntley seniors Sam Andrews, Bethany Zornow and Rachel Zobott, they end their high school careers as the most successful senior class in program history, having compiled a 53-12 record the past two seasons.

“It’s weird that I’m not going to be playing with my sister anymore,” Ali Andrews said. “We’re going to have to keep working hard over the offseason and get better. Now we know what we can do, so we have to keep working harder every day in order to get back to where we came today.” Boylan dominated the first quarter to take a 13-4 lead after Huntley managed only two field goals in the quarter, both from Ali Andrews, and were held scoreless for the final 5:25. Barreto gave Huntley a big boost before the half, knocking down a 3-pointer with 10 seconds left. For as poorly as the Red Raiders played in the first half, committing 10 turnovers and shooting 3 for 8 at the free throw line, Boylan only led by four at halftime, 18-14.

Johnsburg coach says Indiana topples Iowa he wasted scouting trip points and Aaron White added 19 points and 10 rebounds for the Hawkeyes (19-9, 8-7), who have lost three straight.

PREP RECRUITING NOTES

Skyhawks seniors go out with bang joestevenson@shawmedia.com

Braun: The sophomore is the area’s top sprinter and will swim two individual events in his first state meet after qualifying in both sprint events. His qualifying 50 freestyle time of 21.81 puts him in the bottom third of the other qualifiers, but because the race is so short, the times are closely lumped. Braun’s top event, the 100 freestyle, is where he has excelled over the past two weeks. During the Stevenson Sectional, Braun finished in a personal-best 47.65. The top qualifier in the 100 freestyle is Mossimo Chavez, a junior from Chicago Whitney Young, who qualified in 45.59. Schopen: The McHenry sophomore can do it all. He is a fantastic off-stroker and mid-distance swimmer. He was a key piece for the Warriors this season, giving depth to relays and earning individual wins. He swam faster than the qualifying time in both the 200 freestyle and 100 butterfly but was disqualified in the butterfly after a false start. Schopen qualified in the 200 freestyle with a personal-best time of 1:44.25 and has been get-

• REGIONALS Continued from page C1 “It’s an absolute joke,” Toussaint said. “I got an email and I sent a response. I don’t get it. It’s not fair. I already drove to the city to watch Gordon Tech.” Instead of No. 4 Gordon Tech, the Skyhawks get a playin game and could meet No. 3 Carmel in a regional semifinal at 6 p.m. Tuesday. R-B coach Brandon Creason also was frustrated by the switch because of scouting purposes. The Rockets were

rescheduled to play No. 12 Antioch, a team they beat twice, and now will see their original opponent, No. 10 Lakes, a team about which they know little. “I stopped trying to acquire stuff on Lakes,” Creason said. “Now I have one day to organize things. We play Burlington Central [on Friday for the Big Northern Conference East Division title], so next week wasn’t our focus, but we had film on Antioch. “The regional was a lot better the other way with us, Johnsburg and Antioch.”

Marengo outfielder Noah Klick is thankful he met former Judson University assistant baseball coach Jason Richardson a few months ago. Richardson left the NAIA school in Elgin for D-II Tiffin (Ohio) University. He liked Klick from the camp at Judson and invited him to another one at Tiffin. After attending that camp, Klick received a scholarship offer from Tiffin and signed his NCAA National Letter of Intent in November. “It’s crazy how it worked out,” said Klick, a senior. “Tiffin was awesome. They have a great coaching staff. I looked at a lot of NAIA schools, but I really wanted to play D-II.” Klick will be a second-year starter for the Indians this spring. He moved up to varsity and played some during his sophomore season. Marengo: Senior first baseman Abby Kissack will play softball at NJCAA Rock Valley College. Kissack, who will be a four-year starter this spring for the Indians softball team, will continue her career in Rockford. Kissack was a starter on Marengo’s Class 3A state champion team as a freshman and again on the Indians’ Class 3A runner-up as a sophomore. The Golden Eagles finished sixth in the NJCAA National Tournament last season. Huntley: Senior libero Rachel Shores committed to D-II Quincy University for a volleyball scholarship two weeks ago and will sign her letter of intent in April. First baseman Tamara Funke will play softball at NAIA Judson University. “I visited there and a I really loved it,” said Shores, who is 5-foot-5. “I liked coach [Bob] Crank. He was a lot of fun and he’s very competitive. I met some of the girls and they were so nice and easy to talk to.” Shores plays for Club Fusion’s 18 Blue team this spring and summer. Funke, who had brothers Tanner and Tyler who played college baseball, has been a four-year varsity player for the Red Raiders. Funke was an All-Area honorable-mention pick at first base. Prairie Ridge: The Wolves’

Colin Leverenz, a three-year starter at linebacker and member of the Class 6A state championship team, will play football at NAIA St. Ambrose in Davenport, Iowa. … Olivia Hanley, a 5-6 libero, Colin will play next Leverenz season at D-III North Central College in Naperville. Crystal Lake Central: Crystal Lake Central’s three strongest football players will continue their careers next year in college. Defensive end Josh Mugler will play at NAIA Olivet Nazarene in Bourbonnais, while linebackers Nathan Talbott and Connor Hines will play at D-III Wisconsin-Platteville. Talbott was a Northwest Herald All-Area first-team selection, while Hines made second team and Mugler was honorable mention. They all three made Central’s 1,300-pound club, meaning their combined lifts for bench press, squat and dead lift totaled more than 1,300 pounds. Jacobs: Linebacker Greg McLeod will play football at NAIA Robert Morris and offensive lineman Blake Broz will play at NJCAA Iowa Western next year. Broz, an All-Area second-team pick, will play for the program that won the 2012 NJCAA national championship. McLeod was an All-Area honorable-mention selection. Dundee-Crown: Francisco Nava, an All-Area second-team defender, will continue his soccer career at NAIA Dominican next year. … Chargers offensive lineman Trent Hanselmann, an All-Area honorable-mention pick, will play football at D-III Loras College next year.

SEATTLE MARINERS SPRING TRAINING

Burt Reynolds (not him) thankful for opportunity Outfield prospect cousin of Mariners star Cano By TIM BOOTH The Associated Press

The Arizona Diamondbacks and the Cubs play in front of a Cactus League-record 14,486 fans in the third inning of a spring training game Thursday at the Cubs’ new park in Mesa, Ariz.

SPRING TRAINING: DIAMONDBACKS (SS) 5, CUBS 2

Something to prove for Cubs’ Samardzija By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com MESA, Ariz. – Jeff Samardzija knows all eyes are going to be on him every time he pitches this spring and then every time he pitches once the season starts, assuming he’s still with the Cubs then. It’s the new normal for Samardzija, who Thursday opened the first spring of his career as an object of credible trade speculation. “If anything, it just puts a chip on your shoulder,” Samardzija said after working out of a first-inning jam to get through two scoreless innings in the Cubs’ 5-2 loss to an Arizona Diamondbacks split squad in the Cubs’ Cactus League opener at their new spring ballpark. The crowd of 14,486 set a Cactus League record. “It makes you want to go out and prove yourself even more.” If that’s the case, the chip isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. And that could make him an intriguing pitcher to watch on at least a couple of levels every time he takes the mound in a Cubs uniform. “I see him the same right now as I’ve seen him before,” manager Rick Renteria said when asked about the advantages or disadvantages of playing with a chip. “He’s always been driven to do well. As far as a chip ... I haven’t heard anything.” Samardzija, 29, was target-

ed by teams last summer – including the Diamondbacks – when the Cubs were working on trading Scott Feldman and Matt Garza. When he finished a 200-inning, 200-strikeout season with no movement between the sides on a possible contract extension, he was made available during the winter trading season. Jeff Although Samardzija teams such as Arizona and Toronto showed interest – and a longtime executive from a third team referred to Samardzija as a “monster in the making” – nobody came close to meeting the Cubs’ steep price in a winter pitching market already held up by Japanese free agent Masahiro Tanaka’s late posting. The expectation is that barring a sudden reversal from either side on the extension idea, he’ll be a prime trade candidate at midseason. But teams including Texas and Toronto still have starting pitching needs. And two more industry sources said Thursday they believe Samardzija could be traded before the season starts. “I would be surprised,” said Samardzija, who started Opening Day for the Cubs last year. “From what it sounds like right now, we’re going head over heels for this season with

this team. Rick’s made it very clear that we’re here to win, which I love. “I love to hear him talk about his excitement for winning. Not development. Obviously, development’s part of it, but Rick’s No. 1 goal is winning, and me and him are 100 percent on the same page when it comes to that. We want to win. We want to win here. And we want to win now.” Goals and realistic goals are often two different things. Especially when it comes to the third year of an austerity-minded Cubs rebuilding plan that included even less big-league help during the off-season for last year’s 96-loss team than they got for the 101loss team the year before. And as much as Renteria talks about winning, and players get motivated, the front office is focused on long-term value and long-term growth of an eventual contender. As long as Samardzija remains on a one-year contract, the likable, powerful, competitive local kid remains in the trade cross hairs of any team with a pitching need that sends a scout to file a report. And outside of certain teams’ games in July, there’s no time and place to find more scouts at a game than spring in Arizona or Florida. “You’re assuming they’re there every game, regardless of the situation,” Samardzija said, smiling. “You want to put on a good show for them.”

WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

Quintana could be next to cash in By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com GLENDALE, Ariz. – Chris Sale’s contract extension last spring: $32.5 million. Jose Quintana’s reaction: priceless. When Quintana got word of the deal before a Cactus League game in March, the White Sox’s left-hander clasped his hands together, looked up to the sky with a smile and said, “Oh please, God. Please.’’ Quintana, 25, was dreaming that one day he’d be blessed with the same good fortune. At the time, he was largely unproven with one major league season under his belt, albeit a proficient one with a 3.76 ERA over 136 innings. When he followed that in 2013 with 200 innings and a 3.51 ERA (fifth among American League lefties), answered prayers for his own big deal began to look like a real possibility. “I was happy for Chris when he got that contract,” Quintana said. “He is a good teammate, he pitches hard in every start and the team has a chance to win every time he pitches.” A tough-luck pitcher who set an AL record with 17 no-decisions last season (he was 9-7), Quintana’s top goal is to comfortably surpass 200 innings. He will make $500,000 this season and is likely to receive Super 2 arbitration status be-

fore next season. At age 23, Sale got his extension a year before his first arbitration year, and general manager Rick Hahn will likely look to lock up Quintana long-term even though the Sox have five years of control. “We did it with Chris last Jose year when he Quintana was coming off his All-Star appearance and top six in Cy Young voting,” Hahn said. “We’re not afraid to lock in young guys with a deal that makes sense for both sides.” Quintana said such discussions haven’t taken place. “Right now we don’t talk about contracts,” he said. “I don’t think about that, just preparation for the new season. “I want to help my teammates win, and I want to stay here for a long time.” There seems to be a good chance of that for the Sox’s poised and well-liked No. 2 starter from Colombia. “He’s the man,” said Sale, a two-time All-Star. “To be honest, he was the most consistent starter we had last year. He had no blowup games, he pitched 200 innings and he made three more starts [33] than I did [30].” Sale remembers when Quintana, a Sox scouting and development success story who was

unprotected on the Yankees’ 40man roster after the 2011 season and signed as a minor-league free agent by the Sox, pitched 52/3 innings of one-hit, scoreless relief in Cleveland in May 2012. He was immediately sent back to the minors before returning two weeks later. “He was so appreciative of that moment, you knew we were going to see this guy again and that he was going to be here for a while,” Sale said. Quintana did return, and it was a game at Yankee Stadium on June 29 in which he had a rare bad “blowup” inning – four runs in the first – that really sold pitching coach Don Cooper. Quintana gathered himself, toughed out six innings and got the decision in a 14-7 victory. “I remember saying after the game, ‘Now I like him,’ ” Cooper said. “He showed no quit, showed no hesitancy and continued to battle. And battle.” Quintana’s fastball tops out around 91 mph, but a smooth, repeatable delivery helps him “throw all of his pitches for strikes at a good percentage,” Cooper said. And he’s a quick study. “You tell something once and he doesn’t forget it,” Cooper said. “He wants to be on top of it all. You like a guy like that because he’s into it as much as you are.”

PEORIA, Ariz. – He knows the question is coming because at some point it has to be asked. “The name?” Burt Reynolds asks. Yes, the name. It has to be asked. Because thus far, there is little known about Burt Reynolds the baseball player, who finds himself part of the Seattle Mariners “He was playing spring training independent ball, and camp. He’s spent last three to be able to get a the seasons playing shot, get a chance, it’s in independent on the really good to see your leagues East Coast after getting released family.” by the Tampa Robinson Cano Bay Rays organization. Mariners outielder, on his “I’ve been cousin, outielder Burt Reynolds hearing it forever,” Reynolds said. “I don’t know what to say. It’s just a name.” He’s a 25-year-old outfielder who has never played above class Single-A, yet he’s with the Mariners and with a locker at the end of the clubhouse right next to $240 million star Robinson Cano. It just happens that Reynolds is Cano’s cousin, and the Mariners’ biggest offseason investment wanted his cousin to get another shot at impressing a major league club. “It means a lot. He was playing independent ball, and to be able to get a shot, get a chance, it’s really good to see your family,” Cano said. “And the way he’s been swinging, the coaches seem pretty happy with the way he’s been swinging. Hopefully in the games he’ll get his chances and do his job.” For his part, Reynolds is thankful for the opportunity that he’s getting because of his ties to Cano, whom he considers a big brother. He was signed by the Mariners in December shortly after Cano finalized his 10-year contract to leave New York and make a new home in the Pacific Northwest.

The Seattle Mariners’ Burt Reynolds takes a lead off second base Wednesday as he participates in baserunning drills during spring training in Peoria, Ariz. “He knows I’ve got what it takes and he feels like a lot of people, and myself, that I shouldn’t be out of baseball. I should be given the opportunity,” Reynolds said. “He thinks I’m ready and he feels as though I could do something.” Reynolds’ best season in pro ball was his first while playing for rookie league Princeton in 2008. He hit .289 with six homers and 36 RBIs that season, but his career never took off. So he understands why his name raises eyebrows when someone notices it on Seattle’s spring roster. Reynolds said it was his dad’s decision to name him after the famous actor. It was difficult as a child having a famous name, but Reynolds has become more comfortable as he’s gotten older to where he can chuckle at odd exchanges in the past. Like when he was on a flight to Florida and the captain of the plane decided to announce that “Burt Reynolds is aboard today.” Reynolds had to kindly inform the crew that they were slightly mistaken on which Burt Reynolds was aboard. “The flight attendants had a blast,” Reynolds said. “It’s going to happen. I have the name. I’m just used to it now.”

Garza’s return keeps line intact Center, 35, avoids free agency, signs for 1 year, $1.5 million By PATRICK FINLEY pfinley@suntimes.com After setting a franchise yardage record and finishing second in the NFL in points last year, the Bears are getting the band back together. Center Roberto Garza signed a one-year, $1.5 million contract Thursday, meaning every offensive starter is set to return for coach Marc Trestman’s second season. Garza will play his 10th year with the Bears at age 35 but wouldn’t rule out playing beyond the end of the deal. “They knew I wanted to come back, and they wanted me back,” Garza told the SunTimes. “I’m at the point in my career that I was able to make a decision to stay in Chicago. ... It would have been hard to go somewhere new and start over. “I don’t want to go anywhere else. I want to retire a Chicago Bear.”

Negotiations started a few days ago. Lions center Dominic Raiola, 35, “absolutely” helped to set the market, Garza said, when he signed a similar deal this month. “It feels good,” Garza said. “I’m fortunate I haven’t had to deal with much negotiation throughout my year. ... The waiting process was not good for me. I’m not a very patient man.” Pro Football Focus rated Garza, who hasn’t missed a regular-season game since 2010, its 12th-best center last season. The unquestioned leader of the offensive line helped tutor new guards Matt Slauson and Kyle Long; the former earned a four-year contract in January, and the latter went to the Pro Bowl as a rookie. “We all helped each other,” Garza said. “That’s what was great about the guys we have.” Pleased with their offensive direction, the Bears have re-signed three starters –

quarterback Jay Cutler, Slauson and Garza – since the end of the season. The Bears kept tight end Dante Rosario on a one-year deal Thursday, too, leaving backup quarterback Josh McCown and swing tackle (and, last year, blocking tight end) Eben Britton as the only offensive players of consequence left on their free agents-to-be list. Free agency starts March 11. Garza can see himself transitioning to television – he called his Spanish broadcast of the Super Bowl “a great learning experience” – whenever he retires. “This is the best I’ve felt in a couple years,” he said. “I realize I’m going to be 35, and at some point my body’s going to say, ‘No more.’ ” Until that day comes, he’ll keep playing. “If I feel good this time next year,” he said, “I will.”

NASCAR

Stewart more confident about leg heading into Phoenix By JENNA FRYER The Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Tony Stewart does not consider the Daytona 500 a disaster, despite the engine problems that spoiled his return to racing from a broken right leg. The three-time NASCAR champion wound up 35th in the season-opening race, but he logged enough laps during Speedweeks that he feels good going into the upcoming stretch of seven consecutive races. Stewart missed the final 15 races last year after breaking his leg in two places during a sprint car crash in Iowa. His first time back in a race car was Feb. 14, the day before he competed – and was crashed out of – the exhibition Sprint Unlimited. He also raced in the Budweiser Duel

before the 500, giving him 672 miles of racing in three events. Stewart goes to Sunday’s race at Phoenix International Raceway “a lot more confident than I was before we got to Daytona.” “I think having all the races that we ran, and actually getting in a crash, while not a great thing, allowed me to sort of test my leg and it felt good,” Stewart said in a Stewart-Haas Racing team release. “There have been some little things that have felt a little different, but for the most part, it’s felt like an old pair of tennis shoes that you’re just comfortable with. I think the whole time in Daytona exceeded my expectations of what I hoped it would be like.” But the 500 itself was a letdown for SHR. Stewart had the engine is-

Driver Tony Stewart greets fans as he is introduced Sunday before the Daytona 500 in Daytona Beach, Fla. sue and Danica Patrick was involved in a crash and finished 40th. It left only Kevin Harvick and Kurt Busch, the two newcomers to the organization, in contention for

a solid finish and both had difficulties at the end. Busch wound up 21st and Harvick was involved in the final accident of the race and finished a team-best 13th.

Stewart said Sunday’s race at Phoenix will be a better indicator of where the team is than Daytona, one of only four restrictor-plate races on the schedule. “Daytona and Talladega have always just been two different forms of racing,” Stewart said, referring to the necessary teamwork and drafting. “What happens at Phoenix and the races after that has to be done on your own. You can’t help each other at Phoenix. You just have to go race.” He likes his chances at Phoenix, where he has one win, eight top-fives and 12 top10s in 23 career starts. He’s completed all but 14 of 7,257 laps on the 1-mile oval. But PIR is also the place that pushed Stewart into becoming a full-time race car driver in 1993. Still working

eight-hour days at $5-an-hour at a machine shop in Columbus, Ind., Stewart headed West to run USAC Silver Crown season-opening Copper World Classic. He qualified second to Davey Hamilton, then led 31 of 50 laps before finishing second to Mike Bliss. Stewart earned $3,500 that day – a payout that convinced him running the Silver Crown, Sprint and Midget races across the nation that year sounded a lot better than returning to the machine shop. He never looked back, learning how to adapt in every kind of car he drove out of “fear that I’m going to have to get a real job if I’m not successful. “To think that it all kind of started at Phoenix, I guess you could say it’s the place where my career came full-circle,” he said.

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com ADVICE Open email exposes wife’s secret rendezvous Following paleo diet may require supplements Friday, February 28, 2014 • Page C8

Dear Abby: My wife of 45 years is having an online affair with a man who is a former business client. I found out when she inadvertently left an email message open on her laptop. Her phone records confirm daily long-distance conversations. Although I know they have never met personally, they plan to meet during a weekend convention at a hotel in his hometown next month. Despite problems in our marriage, neither of us has strayed, and I’m confident she doesn’t want to lose me, nor do I want to lose her. My dilemma is whether to tell her I know what’s going on prior to her trip, or confront her when she returns with pictures taken by a private investigator. – Con-

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Dear Abby: Recently, my friend went to a wake and told me the person in the casket was holding a fork. My friend said there is a story behind this custom. Can you tell me what it is? – Daily Reader In West Palm Beach, Fla. Dear Daily Reader: The story, titled “Keep Your Fork,” has been widely shared on the Internet. It appeared in “A Third Serving of Chicken Soup for the Soul” and was written by Roger William Thomas. It concerns a young woman who had been given only a short time to live, and who instructed her pastor she would like to be buried with a fork in her right hand. She went on to say, “In all my years of attending church potluck dinners, when the dishes of the main course were being cleared, someone would say, ‘Keep your fork.’” She said the main course was her favorite part of the meal because she knew “something better was coming

flicted In The South Dear Conflicted: Tell her sooner rather than later, so she can cancel her trip. If she’s willing to do that and work on repairing your marriage, there is a chance your problems are fixable. If she isn’t, then face it – your stressed marriage is over. Photos from a private investigator are beside the point. The email you read is proof enough.

... something wonderful, and with substance.” What she wanted was to convey to her loved ones her belief something better was to come. Dear Abby: I have reconnected with my high school sweetheart. We plan to be married late this summer. My problem is she wants to keep her ex-husband’s name as her middle name for the sake of her kids. I feel she shouldn’t have another man’s name if she’s married to someone else. I explained it upsets me, but she doesn’t care. What are your thoughts? – Traditional Man Dear Traditional: I think her reason for wanting to retain her married name is a valid one. It will prevent confusion for her children at school. However, one line in your letter concerns me. It’s the one in which you say it upsets you, “but she doesn’t care.” If she didn’t care about you, she wouldn’t be marrying you. But her children must come first, and unless you can accept that fact, you shouldn’t marry her. • Write Dear Abby at www.

dearabby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Dear Dr. K: My daughter and several of her college friends are on the “paleo” diet. What is that? Is it healthy? Dear Reader: The paleo diet, short for “Paleolithic” diet, restricts what you eat to foods the hunter-gatherers of the Stone Age ate 10,000 years ago. Here’s an example of what you can and can’t eat on the paleo diet: Do eat: meat (especially game meat), poultry, fish and shellfish; fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, eggs, seeds, nuts and olive, coconut and flaxseed oils. Don’t eat: Any food that is processed, man-made or prepackaged; all grains; legumes (including peanuts); dairy, salt, sugar, vegetable oils, potatoes. At first glance, the paleo diet appears reasonable. It is rich in many of the foods nutrition professionals highlight. These include fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy fats, lean protein and limited amounts of sodium and sugar. And it stresses whole foods rather than prepackaged and processed foods. But there’s a downside. Following the paleo diet

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff increases the risk of certain nutritional deficiencies. For example, cutting out all grains and legumes removes sources of certain B vitamins from the diet. Excluding dairy could lead to a calcium deficiency. There are ways around these issues. Organ meats, particularly liver, provide B vitamins, and dark leafy greens and fish (such as sardines with the bones) are good sources of calcium. The paleo diet is not the best option for vegetarians. Without grains, legumes and dairy, vegetarians may be hard-pressed to eat enough protein. (Soy is out because it’s a legume.) Supporters of the paleo diet claim our ancient ancestors who ate this way didn’t suffer from the diseases that plague the modern world, such as heart and blood vessel disease and Type 2 diabetes. I think that’s a silly argument. The fact is these ancient ancestors lived half as long as we do

and never got old enough to develop diseases that typically start in older adulthood. Bottom line: At this time, there is no strong scientific evidence for claims that a paleo diet helps prevent or treat these medical conditions. Please don’t misunderstand: I’m not making fun of the basic idea behind the paleo diet. In fact, I’m sympathetic to it. We humans of the 21st century are not all that different, physically, from ancient humans. Yet many aspects of our life, including our diet, have changed radically. Maybe our health would be better if we ate like our ancient ancestors did, because that’s what our bodies were built to do. It’s a reasonable idea. But the world is full of reasonable ideas about how to improve health, and some of them turn out to be dead wrong. Only long-term scientific studies could tell us if the paleo diet really is healthy. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

REVIEWS & LOCAL SHOWTIMES OF NEW MOVIES ON SCREEN NOW

“The Lego Movie” STARRING: Will Arnett, Will Ferrell and Elizabeth Banks PLOT: An ordinary Lego mini figure, mistakenly thought to be the MasterBuilder, is recruited to join an effort to stop an evil Lego tyrant from gluing the universe together. RATED: PG, for mild action and some rude, nose-thumbing humor TIME: 1 hour, 34 minutes VERDICT: There are so many things to like about “The Lego Movie”: a great voice cast, clever dialogue and a handsome blend of stop-motion and CGI animation that feels lovingly retro, while still looking sharp in 21st-century 3-D. But the best thing about this movie, which was produced in full partnership with the Danish toymaker famous for its plastic-brick building system, is its subversive nature. While clearly filled with affection for – and marketing tie-ins to – the titular product that’s front and center, it’s also something of a sharp plastic brick flung in the eye of its corporate sponsor. “The Lego Movie” is an homage to the spirit of the iconoclast (i.e., the child). It’s hard not to have fun when the film (written and directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller) is having such a good time with pop culture. – The Washington Post

“Lone Survivor” STARRING: Mark Wahlberg, Taylor Kitsch, Emile Hirsch

PLOT: Based on the failed June 28, 2005, mission Operation Red Wings. Four members of SEAL Team 10 were tasked with the mission to capture or kill notorious Taliban leader Ahmad Shahd. RATED: R for strong bloody war violence and pervasive language TIME: 2 hours, 1 minute VERDICT: With all the talk about fact-based films and how accurate they should or shouldn’t be, it’s worth noting some stories are best brought to screen as simply and purely as possible. This is especially true with a film like “Lone Survivor,” Peter Berg’s expertly rendered account of a disastrous 2005 military operation in Afghanistan. War is messy, and politics are messy. But Berg has wisely chosen to focus pretty squarely on the action, and to present it as straightforwardly as possible. And he’s executed that approach with admirable skill, down to using autopsy reports to get the number of wounds a soldier suffered exactly right. Of course, the title, “Lone Survivor,” and the fact Luttrell is played by the movie’s star (Mark Wahlberg, in a strong and moving performance) tells you much of what’s going to happen from the get-go. But that doesn’t hurt the film’s immediacy and power. In fact, you may have a hard time sitting still. At the end, we see photos of the actual casualties of Operation Red Wings. It does not seem gratuitous, and no further explanation or exposition is given, or needed. Again, the best thing about Berg’s work here is its simplicity. –

The Associated Press

“Monuments Men” STARRING: George Clooney, Matt Damon, Bill Murray and Cate Blanchett PLOT: An unlikely World War II platoon are tasked to rescue art masterpieces from Nazi thieves and return them to their owners. RATED: PG-13, for some images of war violence and historical smoking TIME: 1 hour, 58 minutes VERDICT: George Clooney, movie

LOCAL SHOWTIMES director, has very good taste, and in adapting Robert M. Edsel and Bret Witter’s book by the same title about the Allied forces’ pursuit of art masterpieces stolen by Nazis, he has chosen a fascinating historical tale that also bears the intriguing question: What’s the price we’re willing to pay for art? But while a Michelangelo may be worth dying for, “The Monuments Men” is, at best, adequately priced as a movie ticket. Clooney, working from a script he penned with his frequent collaborator Grant Heslov, has fashioned his film as a traditional WWII flick, with a “Great Escape”like score by Alexandre Desplat and a sentimental kind of soldierly chumminess. A handful of museum curators and art experts have been gathered by art historian Frank Stokes (Clooney) to investigate and retake the troves of artwork the Nazis have stolen for a mammoth German museum planned by Hitler. The platoon is ill-suited for war but bold in spirit. With this film, Clooney (who enjoys a self-satisfying scene telling off a Nazi) has erected a stiff monument, a worthy if undramatic tribute to those it’s based on. One wishes the movie had arrived 11 years earlier. Maybe it would have raised enough awareness to take precautions ahead of the toppling of Saddam Hussein, when Baghdad’s Iraq museum was looted of thousands of antiquities. – The

Associated Press

“Non-Stop” STARRING: Liam Neeson, Julianne Moore, Lupita Nyong’o

PLOT: An air marshal springs into action during a transatlantic flight after receiving a series of text messages that put his fellow passengers at risk unless the airline transfers $150 million into an off-shore account. RATED: PG-13, for intense sequences of action and violence, some language, sensuality and drug references TIME: 1 hour, 36 minutes VERDICT: Settling in for a film that takes place almost entirely on an airplane, as does the latest Liam Neeson action flick “Non-Stop,” one’s instinct is to search for the nearest sleeping pill. After federal air marshal Bill Marks (Neeson) morosely guzzles some whiskey in his car outside JFK Airport, he boards the plane headed for Heathrow that he’s to protect, that will be the setting from here on out. Things pick up when down the aisle strolls stewardesses Michelle Dockery and Lupita Nyong’o. The plane populates with our cast: Julianne Moore (Marks’ chatty seatmate), a school teacher (Scoot McNairy), a tough New Yorker (Corey Stroll) and a Muslim doctor (Omar Metwally). Neeson begins getting mysterious text messages from a hijacker on board – a snake on the plane, if you will – who says someone will die every 20 minutes until $150 million is sent to an off-shore account. In the film’s best image, Marks has all the passengers hold their hands up. But it takes an awful lot of implausibility to keep the story airborne. The manner of the deaths turns suspicion to Marks, himself, and even his boss (via phone) believes he’s the terrorist. Moore breathes life into the claustrophobia, as does Dockery – both helpful aids to Marks. Nyong’o, the young Oscar-nominated actress of “12 Years a Slave,” has barely a line, but sports a cool flat top. But the question is – as was with the similarly European-backed, one-word

titled thrillers “Taken,” ‘’Taken 2” and “Unknown” – what to make of this unlikely action hero turn for Neeson at 61? The movies, “Non-Stop” included, are simple, mostly serviceable genre flicks that are smart enough to dispense with exposition but not witty enough to put three acts together. Neeson’s presence – wounded, intelligent, honorable – is much sturdier than these films, which he elevates with ease. On “60 Minutes” recently, Neeson was himself bemused and rather sheepish about this career turn to movies he acknowledged were “straight-to-video” stuff. But his suggestion that he came to “Taken” and the rest because it allowed him to busy himself after the death of his wife, Natasha Richardson, gives these movies a melancholy poetry: The weary Neeson, kicking butt to keep the demons at bay. – The Associated

Press

“Pompeii” STARRING: Kit Harington, CarrieAnne Moss, Emily Browning, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Paz Vega, Jared Harris, Kiefer Sutherland PLOT: Set in 79 A.D., “Pompeii” tells the epic story of Milo, a slave turned invincible gladiator who finds himself in a race against time to save his true love Cassia, the beautiful daughter of a wealthy merchant who has been unwillingly betrothed to the corrupt Roman Senator. As Mount Vesuvlus erupts in a torrent of blazing lava, Milo must fight his way out of the arena to save his beloved as the once magnificent Pompeii crumbles around him. RATED: PG-13 for for intense battle sequences, disaster-related action and brief sexual content. TIME: 1 hour, 35 minutes VERDICT: “Pompeii” has a killer ending. Billowing clouds of ash swallow the ancient Roman town, and fireballs rain down from above; whole city blocks slide into the sea, and a tsunami tears through the streets, leveling everything in its path. When Mount Vesuvius erupts – feel free to direct spoiler complaints to Pliny the Younger – the movie is completely absorbing. You just have to sit through more than an hour of derivative plot and tired dialogue to get there. The similarities between “Gladiator” and “Pompeii” are hard to overstate. In both cases, you have a warrior who’s enslaved after his family is murdered. In both cases, he turns out to have an exceptional talent for killing people, he befriends an African gladiator, and he falls in love with a woman leagues above his social standing. But only in “Pompeii” does the protagonist talk to horses. Milo (Kit Harington from “Game of Thrones”) could be a star if he weren’t stuck in provincial Londinium. Most of the movie is taken up by scene after scene of gladiatorial games, but when Milo isn’t fighting, he’s sharing passionate looks with Cassia and steely glares with Corvus. None of this really matters once the ground begins to shake. Then the movie transitions from a “Gladiator” clone to a less successful Roland Emmerich catastrophe pic. That being said, “Pompeii” does Emmerich one better in the special effects department. – The Washington Post

“RoboCop” STARRING: Joel Kinnaman, Gary Oldman and Michael Keaton

PLOT: In 2028 Detroit, when police officer Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman) is critically injured in the

“THE LEGO MOVIE”

line of duty, the multinational conglomerate OmniCorp sees its chance for a part-man, part-robot police officer. RATED: PG-13 for intense sequences of action including frenetic gun violence throughout, brief strong language, sensuality and some drug material. TIME: 1 hour, 58 minutes VERDICT: The original 1987 “RoboCop,” Dutch director Paul Verhoeven’s first Hollywood film, isn’t so much a movie to revere as a bit of brutalism to behold. Peter Weller’s RoboCop was a techno-Frankenstein created to tame Detroit’s rampant crime: Dirty Harry for dystopia. Remaking “RoboCop” is like trying to re-create a nightmare. That’s one reason why plans to remake the film were met with mostly dubious derision: Directed by Jose Padilha (the Brazilian filmmaker who made the excellent documentary “Bus 174” before shifting into action with “Elite Squad”), this “RoboCop” has updated the dystopia with some clever ideas and better acting, while at the same time sanitizing any satire with video-game polish and sequel baiting. The smartest addition comes early, shifting the story to Tehran, where the global company OmniCorp has drones stopping and frisking in the streets. We’re introduced to this by talk show host Pat Novak (Sam Jackson), who appears throughout the film, brazenly promoting Pentagon propaganda, trying to convince what

“Son of God” STARRING: Diogo Morgado, Amber Rose Revah and Sebastian Knapp

PLOT: The life story of Jesus is told from his humble birth through his teachings, crucifixion and ultimate resurrection. RATED: PG-13 for intense and bloody depiction of crucifixion, and for some sequences of violence. TIME: 2 hours, 18 minutes VERDICT: Is it possible to love Jesus and not like “Son of God”? That’s the slightly discomfiting question some viewers might face upon seeing the feature film, presented by producers Roma Downey and Mark Burnett as a condensed form of their 2013 History Channel miniseries, “The Bible.” Such bold repurposing (and monetizing) of their property may strike some observers as the ultimate in, you should pardon the expression, chutzpah. But “Son of God” is nothing if not sincere, its earnest retelling of Jesus’ life story resembling a gentle, pop-up book version of the New Testament. After a brief scene at the manger, the film focuses on his teachings as an adult, a series of tableaux that play

like the Messiah’s greatest hits. Those loaves and fishes? They’re here. Casting the first stone? Yep. Lazarus? You bet. Enough snark. It’s easy to take pot shots at “Son of God,” which hasn’t been directed as much as cobbled together by “Bible” veteran Christopher Spencer. The visual effects are often cheesy, the dialogue leaden, the melodramatic emotionalism continually snuffing out the possibility of authentic emotion. To its credit, the film places Jesus firmly within his historical context of oppression at the hands of Roman authorities. As for Jesus himself, the Portuguese actor Diogo Morgado is all beachy waves and beatific smiles, his teeth an impeccable white even when covered in blood. And there’s a lot of blood in “Son of God,” as well as swordplay. There’s a lot of crying too, especially from Downey herself, who plays Jesus’ mother, Mary. “Son of God” continually falls prey to starchy, even sophomoric literalism, with Jesus’ teachings sounding like carefully rehearsed speeches and his miracles coming off like magic stunts. But Downey and Burnett clearly mean for their film to make an impact as a spiritual experience. Don’t expect to see a great film, or even a very good one. Whether you discover a meaningful channel with which to continue your walk with the film’s protagonist, however, is strictly between you and their God.

AIKEN OFFICIALLY JOINS N.C. CONGRESSIONAL RACE

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Friday, February 28, 2014 • Section C • Page 10

Former “American Idol” runner-up Clay Aiken officially filed Thursday to run for Congress in North Carolina, saying that he wants to help end the gridlock in Washington and that no single political party has all the answers. The performer, a Democrat, turned in his paperwork at the State Board of Elections to seek the 2nd District seat currently held by Republican Renee Ellmers. Aiken, who lives in the Raleigh-Durham area, announced his bid three weeks ago and must first try to win the Democratic primary in less than 10 weeks.

BUZZWORTHY

Jolie wows Oscar rehearsal actors To the world, she’s a humanitarian, superstar actress and half of Hollywood’s most glamorous couple. But to the workers who met Angelina Jolie Thursday at Oscar rehearsals, she was just “Angie.” The 38-year-old Oscar winner, who was honored with the film academy’s Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award last year, came to the Dolby Theater to run through the lines she’ll say in front of millions Sunday. Afterward, she hung around chatting to show producers and introduced herself as “Angie” to a group of college students serving as trophy carriers this year. “You’ll help make the night a fun night,” she said warmly to the star-struck students. One told her, “You were great out there.” “I didn’t fall!” Jolie replied with a smile, confessing that the silver peep-toe pumps she paired with capri pants and a sweater for the rehearsal are her actual show-day shoes. “After you’ve done this a few times, you learn to wear the shoes you’re going to present in,” she said. She also learned she needed the teleprompter text to be made a bit larger. “I used to wear glasses,” she said. Jolie presented an award on stage, and when a rehearsal actor stepped up to claim it, she gave him a hug.

‘Citizen Kane’ script up for sale at Sotheby’s

Ahead of Oscars, Pharrell hits No. 1 with ‘Happy’

Orson Welles’ personal draft script for “Citizen Kane” is up for sale – from the collection of an American almost as wealthy as the movie’s monstrous newspaper mogul, though considerably more private. Sotheby’s auction house said Thursday it is offering the typed script, covered in the director’s amendments and marked “Mr. Welles’ working copy” on the front page. The script, which has an estimated price of $25,000 to $33,000, is part of a sale of more than a thousand items owned by the late Stanley Seeger, an affluent collector of everything from Old Masters and contemporary art to historical oddities. Other lots to be offered March 5 and 6 in London include eight 100-million-year-old dinosaur eggs, an armchair once owned by Winston Churchill and gangster Al Capone’s silver-plated cocktail shaker, a gift from his underlings engraved “To a Regular Guy, from the Boys.” “Citizen Kane,” released in 1941, has frequently been voted one of the best films ever made. It depicts the rise and fall of an ambitious tycoon modeled on the real figure of U.S. publisher William Randolph Hearst. The script being sold – one of only two known surviving copies belonging to Welles – bears the movie’s earlier title, “American.” It was changed, in part, to distance the fictional Charles Foster Kane from Hearst. Sotheby’s director David Macdonald, who put together the sale, said Thursday that Seeger often watched the movie, following along with script in hand. Seeger, who died in 2011 at the age of 81, lived quietly – even reclusively – but on a grand scale. He and his partner Christopher Cone had 11 properties, including the Tudor manor house Sutton Place in southern England, once owned by J. Paul Getty. All were filled with art and artifacts, as was Seeger’s yacht which boasted a Cezanne on its walls.

Calling Pharrell’s current state “happy” might be an understatement. The producer-rapper-singer’s tune “Happy” is nominated for best original song at Sunday’s Oscars. Days ahead, the upbeat anthem has climbed to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Pharrell says in an interview Wednesday he’s “ever so grateful” and “it’s pretty crazy.” The 40-year-old adds: “It’s really awesome and I’m still shocked.” “Happy” is from the “Despicable Me 2” soundtrack and will appear on Pharrell’s new album, “GIRL,” out Monday. The hitmaker says he’s prepping for his performance Sunday, and he “just intends to have fun with it.”

Paula Deen says she identifies with Michael Sam Paula Deen says she relates to football player Michael Sam and his desire to avoid being labeled. In an interview with People magazine, Deen quoted Sam as saying he wants to be known as a football player and not a gay football player. The Missouri All-American Sam recently came out as gay. Deen told the magazine she understands his viewpoint and, in her case, worries the words “embattled” or “disgraced” always will be attached to her name. The celebrity cook’s fortunes fell last year after she admitted during proceedings in a lawsuit that she had used racial slurs in the past. As part of a comeback effort, she’s launched a new company to oversee her restaurants and other ventures. The 67-year-old Deen called it “amazing” that others face controversies such as hers and come out seemingly unaffected.

MODERN VINTAGE

Several 2014 models poised to become collectibles in 25 years

Photo provided

Most car enthusiasts agree a car is considered vintage after 25 years. If there was ever a car that would be collectible in the year 2039, it will be this svelte bruiser. The 2014 Bugatti Veyron super car is the automotive equivalent of a military cruise missile. With a 1,001 horsepower V-16 engine and top speed of 253 mph, this ultra-expensive sports car is a guaranteed keeper.

FRED’S TIPS

“Remember, if you do buy any of the vehicles I’ve listed and plan on keeping them for 25 years to resell, you have to keep the mileage ultra low and the undersides, topsides and interior in perfect condition to get maximum value for your investment.”

Depending on what car club or association you want to believe, 25 years old is the general rule of thumb for automobiles to be considered vintage tin. Some organizations say 20 years; others say 30, but most everyone in the collector car hobby agrees 25 years old is the standard. So what cars from model year 2014 will the car collector be looking for in the year 2039? I thought about this as I strolled through automobiles on display at this year’s Chicago Auto Show. This is the largest auto show in the country, with more than 1,000 vehicles displayed ON CARS on more than 1 million Fred square feet of one level of McCormick Place on Blumenthal Chicago’s lakefront. Just because a car will be 25 years old in 2039 does not mean a collector will want to buy it. No, it has to have that collective “wow” factor, unique features that people will still find interesting in 25 years. Style, of course, is a big factor, whether perceived as beautiful or ugly. Mega horsepower and handling are other big considerations, as is both exterior and interior color combinations. The vehicle has to have been very popular and coveted by the mass population in general. For example, all 1957 Chevrolet models ever made are considered collectible. The four-door, six-passenger “210” series sedan was the most popular model sold that year, reaching 260,041 units sold. On the other side of the coin is the Chevy Corvette for 1957, with total sales of just 6,339 units. Of those Vettes, only 43 were equipped with fuel injection. Those 43 fiberglass beauties are the ones car collectors are after first and foremost and will command the most money. And so it will be for model year 2014. I tried to pick the cars I think folks would still like to own in 2039, and chose a few surprises that many will not buy now but will want big time in 25 years. I broke down the vehicles into the following categories: sports cars, pony cars, muscle machines, coupes and sedans, and sleepers. Cost has nothing to do with collectability. Some of the cars I’m listing are silly expensive; some are pricey but affordable; and some are cheap for what you’re getting. But I think they all will be much sought after in 2039.

Grand tradition

A 3.6-liter, 283-horsepower V-6 engine is mated to a shiftable six-speed automatic transmission in the three-row, seven-passenger 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan minivan.

Grand Caravan serves as Dodge’s minivan workhorse Competitors are few in the traditional minivan class of vehicles, but the competition is fierce. Honda has the Odyssey, Toyota the Sienna, Nissan the Quest, Chrysler the Town & Country and Dodge the Grand Caravan. The Chrysler and Dodge products are stablemates under the Chrysler Group ownership banner. There are other competitors that offer three-row, seven-passenger seating, but these vehicles, such as a Mazda CX-9, do not have the interior load capacity of 140 to 150 cubic feet of the traditional minivans. Load capacity in the CX-9 barely surpasses 100 cubic feet. One of the old favorites is the Dodge Grand Caravan, a traditional minivan that has been on the market since 1984. In fact, the Grand Caravan started the minivan craze and celebrates its 30th anniversary with the 2014 model. Ask at a dealership about 2014 30th anniversary trim levels. In powerplant, suspension, interior and exterior measurements, the Grand Caravan mimics its upscale Town & Country stablemate. Since it has less alluring trim in its base form, the Grand Caravan costs less. Grand Caravan prices start at $19,995 and top out at $30,000, while Town & Country prices start at $30,765 and can rise to $41,500. The tested Grand Caravan arrived with cloth trim for seating surfaces, and since it was a $26,695 SXT model, the front seats were heated and operated by power. Other upgrades to the SXT from the base Grand Caravan AVP model were power adjustable brake and gas pedals, power sliding rear side doors, power liftgate and power second-

REVIEWS Jerry Kuyper and third-row windows. All models are powered by a 3.6-liter, 283-horsepower, 24-valve V-6 engine mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine is capable of towing a 3,500-pound trailer. The SXT features an overhead set of roof rails that can safely carry 150 pounds. The crossbars, when not in use, fold down into the side rails. A seven-passenger minivan, the SXT’s two rear rows of split and fold seats can disappear to create a flat floor and 144-cubic-foot storage area. The third row folds backward manually and into a deep cargo well. The second row has the company’s patented Stow ’N Go feature. Pull a lever, and down they go, flipping forward into the floor. Market research show the Stow ‘N Go feature is key to bringing customers into showrooms. If the second and third rows remain upright, storage space is 33 cubic feet. With the third row stored in the well and the second row seats upright, cargo space expands to 83 cubic feet. This is a lot of room for a family of four to sit in the first two rows and store baggage, bicycles and other vacation items on the rear load floor. The sides of this van are relatively straight to make storage of clumsy items easier. A 4-foot-by-8-foot sheet of plywood fits in nicely, for example when the rear seats are stored to create the flat load floor. A refrigerator would, too. Dodge has not succumbed to the aerodynamic curvature look for this

When the two rear rows are stored in wells to create a flat load floor, cargo space expands to 144 cubic feet in the 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan. minivan. Other upgrades on the SXT include 17-inch alloy wheels and a larger floor console. Standard power features are heated and power exterior mirrors, power door locks and rear-quarter vent windows, keyless remote entry, cruise control, dual-zone air conditioning and heating front and rear (three zones), second row seats that recline, fold into the floor or can be removed, an overhead console, front floor console, body-colored door handles and side molding and a six-speaker sound system serving the radio, a CD player and an auxiliary audio jack.

Fuel economy usually is determined by driving habits, weather and road conditions, and weight of cargo and occupants on board. During the test week, without towing a trailer, the SXT model averaged 20.9 miles per gallon of gasoline. The driving was equally divided between city and highway with two persons on board. Unleaded regular fuel is recommended for the 20-gallon tank. The Environmental Protection Agency has this minivan as averaging 26 mpg on highways, 18 mpg in the city and 21 mpg in combined usage. Safety features include airbags in front, the front sides, the driver’s knee

and overhead for three rows. There are active head restraints for all seven seat belt positions, stability and traction controls, a tire pressure monitoring system and a four-wheel antilock braking system. This is a comfortable minivan with adequate leg room in all three rows. The most leg room is in front, but the second row also can comfortably accommodate taller people. The third row is confining but easy to get to as the second row buckets flip up and out of the way via a lever. Although a big vehicle, steering was tight and easy. The suspension system with

struts in front and a torsion beam in the rear kept the vehicle on an even keel. There was some wind and engine noise in the SXT’s cabin, but nothing significant. Warranty coverage is three years or 36,000 miles and five years or 100,000 miles on the powertrain and 24-hour roadside assistance. The parent Chrysler Group officials are aware of the minivan competition but keep a practical outlook in mind. The Grand Caravan may be a little long in the tooth and won’t win too many points for style, but it is priced right, especially the SXT, and could serve a family for many years.

Audi seeks edge in luxury sales race with non-blinding high beams By DOROTHEE TSCHAMPA Bloomberg News

ARLINGTON LEXUS IN PALATINE

BRAND NEW 2014 LEXUS

- All Wheel Drive FRANKFURT, Germany – In its bid to overtake BMW as the world’s best-selling luxury-car maker, Audi wants to dazzle, not blind. Next-generation headlamps provide a visible showcase of a brand’s technology and are key to gain an edge in the luxury-car market. Innovations such as bright, energy-efficient LED headlights, smart high beams and infrared-assisted spotlights that shine on potential roadside threats such as deer also help BMW, Audi and Daimler AG’s Mercedes-Benz justify higher prices than mass-market competitors. “Luxury-car margins are under pressure as the carmakers expand their lineups and mass-market vehicles improve in quality,” said August Joas, head of the global automotive practice at consultant Oliver Wyman in Munich. “New headlight technologies are innovations that are easily noticed.” Audi’s latest headlamp technology, which is more advanced than competing systems from BMW and Mercedes, links computer-controlled LEDs with a camera to spare as many as eight vehicles from the glare of the high beams. The system, called Matrix LED, was introduced in Germany in mid-November as a 2,400-euro ($3,200) option on the 74,500-euro A8 executive sedan. (The feature hasn’t been approved yet for the U.S.) BMW charges 2,500 euros for an LED lighting package, which can’t create non-blinding gaps for specific vehicles. The new Audi system combines 50 independently controlled LEDs to create almost 1 billion different light variations, adjusting for traffic situations such as city and highway driving and oncom-

Audi’s new lighting system, Matrix LED, links computer-controlled LEDs with a camera to spare as many as eight vehicles from the glare of the high beams. ing cars and bicycles. “We have redefined light,” Stephan Berlitz, Audi’s head of lighting development, said at the October presentation. “The driver always has the best possible light.” Mercedes is looking to keep pace and will present a similar option, dubbed Active Multibeam LED, this year. The world’s third-largest luxury-auto brand earlier this year rolled out the new S-Class, the first car to abandon old-fashioned light bulbs and rely completely on LEDs throughout the car, underscoring under-the-hood technology such as six cameras and six radars that support safety systems. LEDs, or light-emitting diodes, have replaced xenon, which first was introduced by BMW in the 1990s, as the hot, new lighting technology for high-end carmakers. LEDs were used in headlights in 2007 by Toyota Motor Corp.’s Lexus and closely followed by Audi, which had the first fullLED headlamps. Since then, the VW unit leapfrogged Mercedes to become the world’s No. 2 luxury-car brand. LED technology uses less energy and lasts longer than traditional halogen bulbs, which have been the industry standard for decades. The semiconductor-based lights also can be made smaller and

offer more styling flexibility. “The lights of a car are the icing on the cake,” said Stefan Handt, a designer at Mercedes. Lighting is “comparable to good cuff links with a fine suit or selected jewelry with an evening dress.” Wealthy drivers also are willing to pay for extras such as advanced lights that can help improve safety. Accidents at night tend to be more severe – 24 percent of German auto crashes in the dark last year included deaths or severe injuries, compared with 20 percent in daylight, even though fewer cars are on the road, according to the country’s statistics office. “There’s definitively demand for high-end lighting packages because of the design and because of safety,” said Daniel Wucherpfennig, a salesman at an Audi dealer in Frankfurt. About 70 percent of A8 customers in Germany order the top lighting option when they buy the car, said Audi, a unit of Volkswagen. New lights link to the navigation system and start illuminating corners even before the wheels are turned because the car knows where the road goes. For Audi’s Matrix LEDs, GPS technology also helps the car determine when to turn on the brights.

Mechanical beast turns into road beauty Fuel economy or financial frugality are not reasons to buy a 2014 Lexus LX570. Priced from $81,780, the full-sized sport utility vehicle averaged 15.6 mpg during a recent test week. This abundant use of gasoline is offset by one huge virtue. One can live like royalty in the LX570. It is loaded with power, off-roading and comfort mechanicals and amenities. Imagine a Toyota Land Cruiser sport utility vehicle on steroids, and you have the Lexus LX570. Lexus, the luxury division of Toyota, has put more power, luxury and room into the LX570 compared with the Land Cruiser, but not by much. The 5.7-liter, 383-horsepower, dual overhead cam V-8 engine can tow a 7,000-pound trailer while carrying a payload of 1,280 pounds. The engine is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. It is a versatile engine and easily carries the 6,000-pound LX570 along the highway. The engine is a veritable workhorse in fields and rough off-roading terrain. A transfer case automatically lowers the vehicle when in low range. On the highway, the electronics raise the vehicle to its normal ground clearance of 8 inches. The Environmental Protection Agency rates the LX570’s fuel usage at 12 mpg in the city and 17 mpg on the highway. Gasoline is pumped into a 24.6-gallon tank. Buyers get a luxurious eight-passenger vehicle including power folding split third row seat (folds and then flips to the sides), power (forward and backward) second row seat, and power (forward or backward, up and down) front leather (heated with memory for three) bucket seats, plus power tilt and telescoping steering wheel. The liftgate and moonroof (open, close, tilt) also are operated by power. Interior trim includes leather, metal alloys and real wood (not a plastic laminate

REVIEWS Jerry Kuyper lookalike). Storage capacity measures 83.1 cubic feet when the rear two rows of seats have been adjusted properly. When the third row is folded against the walls, the storage width is slightly more than 38 inches. Running boards on the sides are illuminated, and so is the tow hitch and ball mount area in the rear. Puddle lamps guide feet into the front and second rows of seats. Cruise control and redundant audio controls are mounted on the power tiltand-telescope leather-wrapped steering wheel. One touch is required for the power open and close, tilt and slide, moonroof. The four power windows are express up and down and come with anti-pinch protection. Wide 285 all-terrain Dunlop tires are mounted on 20inch, five-spoke alloy wheels with a full-size spare stored underneath. The 12- to 13-inch brakes control the wheels well. Other safety equipment includes traction and stability controls, front airbags, side airbags for two rows and (rollover sensing) curtains for three rows, pretensioners and headrests complementing seat belts, rain-sensing variable intermittent wipers, intermittent rear wiper with washer, daytime running lights, a rearview camera and adaptive halogen headlamps. The adaptive front double wishbone suspension is complemented by shocks, arms, coil springs and stabilizer bars. During the test week, the LX570 traveled several rugged roads, and the suspension kept this heavy SUV on an even keel. Off-roading equipment, besides a transfer case and huge tires, includes auxiliary

transmission cooler, differential center lock, limited slip differential (center), tow hooks front and rear, recessed fog lamps, four mud flaps, overhead roof rails and undercarriage protection. Luxuries are many and include navigation system with voice command, parking sensor, remote keyless entry (doors and liftgate) and smart start, cruise control, air conditioning, zoned climate controls, lighted vanity mirrors, electric foldable and heated exterior mirrors (reverse tilt to see curb when parking), entertainment system (AM/FM/ XM radio, CD and MP3 players), clock, compass, outside temperature display, courtesy

Sports cars

Pony cars

Nothing quite like a sports car to get your blood pumping, young or old. Who doesn’t dig low-slung two-seaters?

These classic all-American high-horsepower cars originated in the mid 1960s. They are brute street rockets that could haul the mail in a quarter-mile straight line but with no real handling capabilities in stock form. But now, not only can they still fly through the quarter-mile, they also can hold their own on any road or street course. They are true automotive icons.

Chevrolet Corvette-Z06: Engine – 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 rated at 625 horsepower and 635 footpounds of torque. Transmissions – seven-speed manual and eight-speed automatic. Dodge Viper SRT: Engine – naturally aspirated 8-liter V-10 rated at 640 horsepower and 600 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – six-speed manual; no automatic available. Porsche 911 Turbo S: Engine – 3.8-liter twin turbocharged flat 6-cylinder rated at 560 horsepower and 516 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – seven-speed automated manual and all wheel drive. Jaguar F-Type (R): Engine – 5-liter supercharged V-8 rated at 550 horsepower and 502 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – eight-speed “Quick Shift” (ZF) automatic. Nissan 370Z-NISMO: Engine – 3.7 liter sequential multiport electronic fuel-injected V-6 rated at 350 horsepower and 276 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – sixspeed manual. McLaren 12C-Spider: Engine – 3.8-liter twin turbocharged V-8 rated at 616 horsepower and 443 footpounds of torque. Transmission – seven-speed automatic dual clutch. Bugatti Veyron: Engine – 8-liter quad turbocharged W16 rated at 1001 horsepower and 922 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – seven-speed automatic and all wheel drive. Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT (Gullwing Coupe): Engine – 6.3 liter-naturally aspirated V-8 rated at 583 horsepower and 479-foot-pounds of torque. Transmission: seven-speed dual clutch automatic.

An American icon, the 2014 Z06 Chevy Corvette will be on every 2039 car collector’s list of must-have sports cars. With stunning good looks, a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 engine that develops 625 horsepower and race-car handling, what more could you ask for?

Chevy Camaro Z/28: Engine – 7-liter dry sump (LS7) sequential fuel injection V-8 rated at 500 horsepower and 470 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – six-speed manual. Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 (SVT): Engine – 5.8-liter supercharged V-8 rated at 662 horsepower and 631 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – six-speed manual. Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker (MOPAR ’14): Engine – 5.7-liter fuel-injected “HEMI” V-8 rated at 375 horsepower and 410 footpounds of torque. Transmission – 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic.

This Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker in all white livery is code named MOPAR ’14. It is a very affordable pony car with lots of HEMI V-8 muscle under the hood. It will be produced in low numbers because it is a niche market machine. All this adds up to collectability in the future.

Sleepers These cars run under the radar for most people. They have a lot going for them and are well-known with car enthusiasts. They are produced in fairly low numbers and sell to a niche market (mostly gearheads).

The brutish Dodge Viper SRT is a true driver’s machine if there ever was one. This car does not have Blue-Tooth or GPS, and you can’t order an automatic transmission. What it does have is 640 horsepower, 600 foot-pounds of torque and a six-speed transmission. Those three items alone will make this a collector car in the future.

The 2014 Cadillac CTS Coupe’s great looks are backed up with plenty of power, a highly sophisticated suspension system, tons of electronic wizardry and a low build number.

Muscle machines, coupes, sedans These are high-output four- and five-passenger automobiles with great handling characteristics.

This 2014 Mercedes Benz SLS-AMG-GT Coupe will be highly sought-after in 2039. Built in very low numbers, the mega horsepower beauty with gullwing doors from Germany is in a collector class all its own.

Cadillac CTS-V-Coupe: Engine – 6.2 liter V-8 “LSA” engine rated at 556 horsepower and 551 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – six-speed automatic with manual mode. BMW-M3 four door sedan: Engine – straight 6-cylinder with twin turbochargers and rated at 430 horsepower and 369-plus foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – six-speed manual transmission standard with a 7-speed (DCT) double clutch as an optional unit available. Subaru “WRX” four door sedan: Engine – turbo charged 2.5-liter 6-cylinder “boxer” engine rated at 265 horsepower and 244 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – five-speed manual.

Chevrolet SS Sport Sedan: Engine – 6.2 liter “LS3” (Corvette sourced) electronic fuel injected V-8 rated at 415 horsepower and 415 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – six-speed automatic with “Tap Shift.” Ford Fiesta ST-Hatchback: Engine – 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder rated at 197 horsepower and 214 foot pounds of torque. Transmission – 6-speed manual. Lexus IS250 AWD F-Sport Sedan: Engine – 2.5-liter dual overhead cam direct-injected V-6 rated at 204 horsepower. Torque specs not available. Transmission – six-speed automatic. Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon – four-door, fourwheel-drive: Engine – Fuel-injected V-6 rated at 285 horsepower and 265 foot-pounds of torque. Transmission – six-speed manual.

This 2014 Lexus IS250, with colors a custom-mixed orange and galaxy root beer, is a sleeper collectible.

Excessive wear may trigger false warning light I have a 1998 Audi A6 with 88,000 miles that is in beautiful condition. Recently, I have been getting an intermittent red ABS light. My independent shop checked when the light was off and found no problem. They checked the fluid level and inspected the brake pads and rotors and found everything is OK. My shop wants to check the ABS system when the light is on. Whenever the light is on, I head for my shop. As luck would have it, the light is off by the time I get there. I’m concerned about using the car when the light is on. What should I do next? – G.F., email When the light is on, the ABS system likely will not function. Practice squeeze braking and rapid pumping techniques to control skids until the issue is repaired. As for the trouble, it’s possible there is an air gap issue at one of the wheel sensors. Also, an electrical connection might be corroded or loose. Because your car is older, connections and corrosion should be heavily weighed and considered. Additionally, because your shop has eliminated problems in the brakes, a technician might check for a worn wheel bearing. Excessive wear can increase the air gap at a wheel sensor and turn on the light.

I have a 2010 GMC Terrain with 50,000 miles. The timing chain just needed replacement. Now an anti-lock brake sensor and Stabilitrak sensor are out. It will cost $1,000 to repair. I’ve had numerous recalls fixed, including stuck steering. The engine oil is disappearing. I could go on and on. I live in Minnesota and am scared to death to drive on snow-covered roads. The

DR. GIZMO Phil Arendt dealership that works on it said this could be just the beginning of the troubles. Is this normal for a car this new? Is there any help from General Motors? Do you have any suggestions? – G.N., email Wow your car has been trouble. It’s not normal. To find out if General Motors can be of any help, call customer service at 855-238-0773. When you call, be prepared to provide a detailed vehicle service history. A representative will need information from repair invoices from all servicing dealer and independent shops. Also, be prepared to be referred back to your servicing dealership for further assessment of your vehicle. As for driving in slippery conditions, it’s natural to be cautious and a little frightened, but it’s important to stay calm and focused. Conscientious drivers grip the steering wheel a little tighter and focus more on driving conditions. There are exceptions. The cars you see in a ditch are the result of drivers who failed to recognize driving conditions. Stay focused, slow down and keep a good distance away from vehicles in front of you. If you do, you should be able to control the vehicle even with impaired systems. After all, years ago when cars did not have all the safety features they now have, motorists navigated slick roads safely. Just because vehicles have systems to help control a vehicle doesn’t mean it won’t slide, skid, fishtail and spin-out on gravel, ice, snow, mud,

leaves, rain and oil. If a vehicle operator exceeds the abilities of a vehicle, they could easily lose control and, in the blink of an eye, collide with a bang or slip into a ditch. Once repairs are complete, continue to use common sense during winter driving conditions, because a system such as stability control is not effective if a vehicle operator exceeds its limitations.

I have a 2006 Land Rover LR3. The battery died, so in all my infinite wisdom I jump started it and went to a parts store to buy a new battery. My car ran fine to and from the parts store. I did not shut it off until I was home and in my garage. I replaced the battery without a hitch. Unfortunately, when I tried to start the engine, it started, but the transmission did not engage. I checked all of the fuses, and all of them are fine. There is a message on the dash that says the transmission range is not available. There are two other messages for special programs and fault programs that are not working. I don’t want to have the vehicle towed to a dealer unless I have no other choice. Did replacing the battery wipe out the engine computer? Does it need programming? Did I somehow short out the computer? What do you think is wrong? – R.G., email If you followed safety practices and did not accidentally short a circuit or reverse polarity, the computers should be fine. Having said this, it appears a control module is causing trouble. I don’t know which one, so it’s time to have the vehicle transported to a shop. Tests will determine which module is causing trouble, but from what you describe, it’s pos-

sible a transmission module has failed.

I have a problem with my 1999 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with a 5.3-liter motor that’s been going on for some time. When accelerating before the engine warms up, it loses power and the check engine light turns on. Once the motor warms up, it runs normally. I replaced the crank sensor because my parts house found code 336 in the engine computer. This did not fix the trouble. I also replaced the spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter, fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator. I also cleaned the mass and flow sensor. None of this cured the trouble. The check engine light turned back on, and tests still find code 336. I’ve owned the truck since it was new. It’s my baby and in great condition. It has 196,000 miles on it, and none of the parts I installed had ever been replaced in the past except for the spark plugs and filters. What do you think is wrong? – L.T., email When a vehicle crosses the 150,000 mile mark, it’s a good idea to replace parts such as the fuel pump and water pump as a preventive measure. These are parts that will fail. You just don’t know when. And when they do fail, you could be stranded in the middle of nowhere. Replacing the fuel pump and the pressure regulator at least was a good preventive measure. Since the condition occurs when the engine is cold, it raises suspicions that a sensor such as the engine coolant temperature sensor is acting up. There also is an air temperature sensor within the mass air flow sensor you just cleaned. I hope you did not scrub the interior of the mass and flow sensor, as

doing so can damage it. Since code PO336 has returned, check the crankshaft sensor circuit for chaffed wiring and poor connections. It’s also possible the new sensor is defective. Another issue might be excessive crankshaft play. Let’s hope excessive wear of the crankshaft is not the cause, but it should be checked to rule that out as a possible cause. More than likely, the crank sensor or circuit is causing this trouble, so start troubleshooting there.

I have a 2008 GMC Acadia with 17,000 miles. The power steering quit working. I went to my local shop. They flushed the system, but that did not fix the trouble. It did improve it a little, because when I speed up the engine, the power steering is a little easier. My shop says to fix the trouble they will need to replace the pump and the steering rack. It’s an expensive job. A friend who knows a lot about cars says I should replace the pump. That might cure the trouble. My shop says metal contamination in the fluid probably has ruined the steering rack. What do you think I should do? – D.R., email There is concern that metal from the pump has damaged the steering rack. Flushing the system should have removed contamination, but since it appears you have driven the vehicle with the failed pump, a flush is needed again. At this juncture, flush the system and replace the pump. There is a good chance this will return normal function. If so, expect that sometime in the future the rack will fail and need replacement. When it does, you might need to replace

the pump once again due to contaminated fluid.

My 2005 Honda Civic with a 1.7-liter engine stalled and would not stay running after several attempts to restart it. I had it towed to a repair shop, where they have done all kinds of tests but can’t find anything wrong with the engine. They tell me everything is OK. There are no codes in the computers. They said they tested all the computers, replaced the spark plugs, checked ground wires and replaced the air filter. They told me the spark plugs keep getting wet, but don’t know why. They think it might be caused by an air leak or a fuel mixture sensor, but they haven’t found the cause of the trouble. The shop is really busy because of the cold weather, so they can’t continuously work on my car. I love my car. I need it. Do you have any suggestions? – R.M.B., email Your technician might consider thinking out of the box. I’m sure the technician is as frustrated as you. If tests have not found any malfunction codes and the spark plugs are wet, he might consider testing the fuel in the tank. Maybe your car is suffering from contaminated gas. Perhaps it’s water, or there is too much ethanol. It could be diesel fuel. If so, a thorough cleaning of the fuel system and a fresh supply of gas might result in a happy ending to this issue.

Hole in local bagel market By KEVIN MURPHY kmurphy@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – It’s getting harder to find locally made bagels in McHenry County. Great American Bagel & Caffe Luna, which opened in 1987 in Crystal Lake, closed in 2012, and Bentley’s Bagels and Brew in Algonquin closed in late 2013. Several restaurants, shops and grocery stores sell bagels, including Einstein Bros Bagels, Panera,

Dunkin’ Donuts and other chains. But few make their own from scratch. Butera, Garden Fresh and Joe Caputo & Sons, all of Algonquin, use Hometown Bagels of Alsip, which is in Cook County. Einstein Noah Restaurant Group, the nation’s largest operator of bagel bakeries, uses dough-making plants in Whittier, Calif., and Avon, Ind. The company, which operates Einstein and Noah’s New York Bagels brands and franchises locations under the Manhattan Bagel brand, has

800 restaurants in the U.S. Country Donuts in Crystal Lake had been selling bagels from Bentley’s for eight or nine months before Bentley’s closed, Scott Offord said. Offord is the co-owner with Larry Swanson of Country Donuts, a 24-hour restaurant known for its doughnuts and coffee. Offord has been experimenting with making his own bagels since Bentley’s closed, but hasn’t found the right formula yet. “It’s not ready for sale,” he said.

Offord said most places are using par-bake bagels, which are premade and require little baking. Offord said he would like to make everything in-house, but this week he has been focused on making paczkis for Fat Tuesday. The cream-filled pastry is only available during the two days before Lent. While Offord said he’s sad to see local bagel places closing shop, he’s glad his customers still choose doughnuts.

The first class section of an Emirates airlines Airbus A380 is ready for boarding at the new Concourse A of Dubai Airport in Dubai. When Emirates Airline opened a new concourse at its home airport in Dubai last year, it made sure to keep coach passengers separate from those in business and first class. The top floor of the building is a lounge for premium passengers with direct boarding to the upstairs of Emirates’ fleet of double-decker Airbus A380s. Those in coach wait one story below and board to the lower level or the plane.

Private first class Latest airline perk: Safe distance from the masses By SCOTT MAYEROWITZ The Associated Press NEW YORK – On flights from San Francisco to Hong Kong, first-class passengers can enjoy a Mesclun salad with king crab or a grilled USDA prime beef tenderloin, stretch out in a 3-foot-wide seat that converts to a bed and wash it all down with a preslumber Krug “Grande Cuvee” Brut Champagne. Yet some of the most cherished new international first-class perks have nothing to do with meals, drinks or seats. Global airlines are increasingly rewarding wealthy fliers with something more intangible: physical distance between them and everyone else. The idea is to provide an exclusive experience – inaccessible, even invisible, to the masses in coach. It’s one way that a gap between the world’s wealthiest 1 percent and everyone else has widened. Many top-paying international passengers, having put down roughly $15,000 for a ticket, now check-in at secluded facilities and are driven in luxury cars directly to planes. Others can savor the same premier privileges by redeeming 125,000 or more frequent flier miles for a trip of a lifetime. When Emirates Airline opened a

McDonald’s to expand ‘build your own burger’ test By CANDICE CHOI The Associated Press OAK BROOK – McDonald’s plans to expand a test this year that lets people order customized burgers. The world’s biggest hamburger chain began testing the waters of personalized orders last year with a “build-your-own burger” concept at a location in California. In addition to its traditional menu, the restaurant in Laguna Niguel offers tablets on which people can tap out the bun, patty, cheese and toppings they want on their burgers. Kevin Newell, U.S. brand and strategy officer for McDonald’s, said in an interview that the offering is a “huge driver.” Without providing

specific figures on the sales impact, he said it’s attracting a different type of customer and more of a dinnertime crowd. The purpose of the expanded test is to get more data, Newell said. “It’ll be more than five, less than a hundred,” he said when asked how many restaurants would be testing the menu, hewing to the company’s practice of keeping planned tests tightly under wraps. But he said the additional locations also will be in Southern California. The test reflects a push by McDonald’s to adapt to the growing trend toward customization in the fast-food industry. The popularity of Chipotle and Subway, for instance, is largely due to the fact that people can dictate

exactly what they want on their burritos and sandwiches. With McDonald’s, by contrast, many people know exactly what’s supposed to go into its famous burgers and sandwiches. An ad jingle even once explained the makeup of a Big Mac – “two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions on a sesame bun.” Now, however, executives in Oak Brook are trying to change the perception that people can’t customize their orders at McDonald’s. Aside from the “build-your-own burger” test, for instance, the chain is rolling out new prep tables in the kitchens of its more than 14,000 U.S. restaurants.

Local Chamber of Commerce supports quality of life This Saturday, the 32nd annual Cary Grove Community Showcase takes place at Cary-Grove High School from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event is free to the public and features nearly 100 local businesses, organizations and leaders from the Cary and Fox River Grove areas. A farmers market also will take place in the school cafeteria with 18 vendors selling food such cheese, meat, eggs, honey and a variety of local handmade artisanal products such as scarves and jewelry. The event is hosted by the Cary Grove Area Chamber of Commerce. I encourage you to visit because it’s going to be a great event, but this article isn’t about that. This article is about the importance of the local chambers across McHenry County, across Illinois and across much of the country. Many host events similar to the

CHAMBER NEWS Brad Ball Cary Grove Community Showcase. Most people think the job of the local chamber is to support the business community by providing advocacy, access, resources, marketing and other opportunities that can help them grow and be successful. But the local business community does not exist in a vacuum; its integration with local residents is critical to quality of life. Events such as Showcase are meant not only to connect residents and visitors to the local business community, but to increase the quality of life in the communities. Events such as this bring people out to experience each other and get to

know more about the community. Did you know there are 12 chambers of commerce that serve the greater McHenry County area? Go online and find out what your local chamber is doing. Then, ask your local businesses if they’re a chamber member, because supporting the chamber through membership supports quality of life in your community. The Cary Grove Area Chamber of Commerce has a number of events in the coming weeks. The New Member Orientation Breakfast is at 8 a.m. March 5. The Fox River Grove Business Round Table, with Village President Bob Nunamaker as the speaker, is from noon to 1:30 p.m. March 13. The round table costs $20 and includes lunch.

First class flights becoming private experiences • FIRST CLASS Continued from page E1 “First class has become a way for a traveler to have an almost private jet-like experience,” said Henry Harteveldt, an airline analyst with Hudson Crossing. Airlines “will do everything but sing a lullaby.” The front of the plane has always been plusher than the back. But in recent years, airlines have put a greater focus on catering to the most affluent fliers’ desire for new levels of privacy. There’s a lot of money on the line. At big carriers like American Airlines, about 70 percent of revenue comes from the top 20 percent of its customers. The special treatment now starts at check-in. American and United Airlines have both developed private rooms, located in discrete corners of their terminals in New York, Chicago and elsewhere, that allow for a speedy check-in. Boarding passes in hand, travelers exit through hidden doors leading to the front of security lines. Some foreign airlines have gone further. Lufthansa offers first-class passengers a separate terminal in Frankfurt. There’s a restaurant, cigar lounge and

but buy your books on Amazon? Sure, the hardcover is $15 less expensive, but don’t be surprised when the bookstore closes. What about the independent coffee shop you pass on the way to Starbucks? The coffee is probably better, and it also has a drive-through. How you spend your money demonstrates your values. If you want local, independent businesses in your community, you need to spend money there to support them. No one else is going to do it for you. “Shop local” campaigns are prolific today and their message could not be more important. One of the jobs of the local chamber is to help bridge the communication gap.

• Brad Ball is executive director of the Cary Grove Area Chamber of Commerce.

Not clear if concept will catch on

on the moving walkway. Want to board first? No problem. Want to be the last one seated, moments before the door closes? Sure. Airlines will even save room for your bags in the overhead bin. International first class long has been distinguished by gourmet meals, wide seats and giant TVs preloaded with hundreds of movies and TV shows. But in recent years, airlines also upgraded their international business class sections, ripping apart cabins to install chairs that convert into lay-flat beds. That left very little to differentiate first class from business class. So some airlines scrapped the ultra-premium cabin. Others have cut the number of first-class seats in half, thereby creating a more intimate experience that commands the higher price. For instance, a roundtrip flight in July between New York and Hong Kong on Cathay Pacific costs $1,600 in coach, $7,600 in business class and $19,000 in first class. Other airlines charge similar price differences among their passenger classes. Besides privacy, that extra cash provides an outsize seat, attentive service and superior wines and liquors. Austrian Airlines, Etihad Airways and Gulf Air are among the carriers to staff planes with their own first-class chefs.

dedicated immigration officers. For those who choose to shower or take a bath, the private restrooms come with their own rubber ducky – an exclusive plastic souvenir for the international jet set. When it’s time to board, passengers are driven across the tarmac to their plane in a MercedesBenz S-Class or Porsche Cayenne. “That sort of exclusivity plays to the ego of people who are in a position to spend that much money on airline flight,” said Tim Winship, publisher of travel advice site FrequentFlier.com. At Heathrow’s private suites, designed for up to six people, fliers pass swiftly and privately through their own immigration and security screening. While they’re waiting, hors d’oeuvres and Champagne are provided. Steak, sushi or other meals can be delivered from airport restaurants. When it comes time to actually fly, passengers are driven to their plane in a BMW 7 Series sedan and escorted to their seat. U.S. airlines have copied a bit of that touch. United started in July and Delta Air Lines in 2011 driving their top customers who have tight connections at major airports from one gate to another in luxury cars. No need to enter the terminal, let alone fight the crowd

Election time is just around the corner, and one of the primary things voters want to know about candidates is how they plan to spend our tax money. Will they advance programs that serve our own needs, or our business’s needs or our community’s needs? Or will they fizzle it away in corruption and waste. These are important questions we need to ask. But as you evaluate candidates’ answers, do not miss the opportunity to examine how your own spending demonstrates your values as well.

• MCDONALD’S Continued from page E1 The tables are built to accommodate many more toppings and dressings than McDonald’s currently offers, suggesting the company has plans to expand its lineup of ingredients. For instance, people might be able to request jalapeños or salsa on their burg-

ers or sandwiches at some point. Of course, the early signs of promise for the “buildyour-own burger” test in California are far from a guarantee of broader success. It could be people are just drawn by the initial novelty of the test. The chain has already made adjustments to the test, too, such as cooking its Quarter Pounders on a flat grill instead of char-grill-

ing them. It’s also not clear whether McDonald’s would be able to translate the concept across its broad network of restaurants, in part because it requires a separate grill in the kitchen where the patties for the customized burgers are cooked in a slower fashion. “We’ve got to figure out, can we do it operationally?” Newell said.

transportation-related equipment fell 5.6 percent. More encouragingly, orders rose 1.7 percent in a closely watched category, known as core capital goods, which excludes volatile transportation and defense orders. This category had dropped 1.8 percent in December. Economists track this category to determine whether business investment is expanding. Last month’s rebound nearly erased all of December’s decline, a sign that companies might be anticipating more business during spring. “There is some evidence that the growth rate of equipment investment is strengthening,”

said Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics. But “we won’t know for sure until the weather improves.” Frigid weather and snowstorms have cut into factory output in recent months. As manufacturing has slowed, the effects have echoed across the economy to dampen hiring, retail demand and home sales. Manufacturers made fewer cars and trucks, appliances, furniture and carpeting in January, as cold weather delayed shipments of raw materials and caused some factories to shut down, the Federal Reserve has reported.

8IN BRIEF Orders for durable goods down 1 percent WASHINGTON – American businesses ordered fewer durable manufactured goods in January, cutting demand for planes, autos and machines. But a key category that reflects business investment rebounded on the strength of demand for electronics and fabricated metals. The Commerce Department said Thursday orders for durable goods fell a seasonally adjusted 1 percent in January from December. Much of the decline was driven by a 20.2 percent drop in demand for commercial aircraft, a volatile month-tomonth category. Orders for all

Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider, for an episode of “Northern Exposure,” wrote, “Life is spontaneous and it is unpredictable; it is magical.” Bridge is rarely spontaneous, because it requires thought. But it can occasionally be unpredictable and magical -- as in this deal. South is in three spades. The contract looks unbeatable. Surely the defenders can take only three clubs and one diamond. Can’t declarer get into the dummy in diamonds, take the spade inesse, and collect seven spades and two diamonds (or one diamond and one heart)? Well, strange as it may seem, the defenders can defeat the contract -- but how? South had a textbook vulnerable three-spade opening: a good seven-card suit and 6-10 high-card points. After that, no one had suficient values to argue. West leads the club king. East overtakes with his ace and returns the club two. This tells West that East started with only two clubs. West wins the second trick with his eight, then cashes the club queen. What should East discard?

East must pitch a diamond. Now West leads a fourth club and East throws another diamond. South cannot ruff on the board, because then he would be unable to take the spade inesse. So South ruffs in his hand and plays a diamond to try to get into the dummy for the trump inesse. But West wins with his ace and leads another club, on which East jettisons his last diamond. Declarer trumps and plays a diamond, but East ruffs the trick to defeat the contract. Isn’t that magical?

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - Your industrious and hard-working nature will allow you to achieve amazing results this year. The ongoing pursuit of knowledge and information will be extremely rewarding for you. Dedication, loyalty and honesty will continue to bring you fulfilling friendships, romantic relationships and influential contacts. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Be sensitive, open and honest in your dealings with loved ones. If they feel you are holding back, it may cause irreparable damage to your most intimate relationships. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Don’t try so hard. It isn’t necessary to go to extreme lengths to gain the approval of your colleagues. Your kindness, generosity and compassion will create a favorable impression. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Recreation and entertainment are the order of the day. Romance, travel, or interesting pastimes will generate excitement. Put mundane activities on hold for the time being. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- There are many places where your talents can be put to good use. Make others aware of your capabilities by confidently presenting what you have to offer. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Even if you are happy with life, new and rewarding experiences are worth checking out. Take advantage of opportunities that promise to broaden your horizons and indulge your curiosity. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Take steps to cultivate beneficial partnerships, deal with unsatisfying financial matters and initiate new strategies for moving forward. You need a concrete agenda and decisive action to get what you want. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Use a confident and direct approach in all your affairs today. Be assertive when asking for what you want. Sitting back quietly and hoping for results will accomplish nothing. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- It’s a good day to reassess your love life and family relationships. If you are not satisfied, now is the time to make a positive change. Consider the needs of others as well as your own. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You’ll become irritated and upset over minor issues. Rather than allowing yourself to become distraught over small details, bite your tongue and save your energies for more important matters. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Put your worries on the back burner. Disagreements, work and problems with meddlers will lead to bitterness. Get outside to remind yourself of the beauty of nature. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You have good ideas and should plan to move forward. The encouragement you receive will help you reach your destination. Strive for success and share your victory with loved ones. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You may have been neglecting your self-improvement goals. Engage in some pleasurable physical activity, and you will be rewarded with better health, renewed energy and a sense of fulfillment.
