Lantz’s attorney rips indictment Says case against ex-coroner has ‘political undertones’; Bianchi disputes claim By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The attorney defending the former McHenry County coroner on official misconduct and forgery charges says the case is “overshadowed with political undertones,” as a number of questions remain about the case. State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi vehemently rejected the notion that Marlene Lantz’s indictment

was the settling of old scores. Lantz, 68, of McHenry, and Bianchi never were friendly in the local political arena. She’s publicly endorsed Bianchi’s opponents and sharply criticized the state’s attorney when he was indicted on corruption charges. Bianchi eventually was cleared of all wrongdoing. “This is about justice and nothing else,” Bianchi said Friday. “We have a baby that wasn’t given an appropriate burial.”

“Ms. Lantz, just like any other defendant, is presumed innocent until proven otherwise.” Lantz is accused of not disposing of 22-year-old remains of a child referred to in the bill of indictment as “Baby Doe” or “Baby Reinert.” The remains were discovered at the coroner’s office in January. Lantz retired as coroner in 2012. According to the indictment, Lantz, in her official capacity,

took control of the remains in March 1992. Part of her official duties as coroner was to dispose of the body either through cremation, burial or by donating to science. She also is accused of later signing a death certificate with false information that the child’s mother was unidentified, although authorities knew her identity. The death certificate Lantz allegedly signed in 1997 also indicates the child was bur-

hose who have a positive impact on our lives can do so at any age. But, when we reflect on those who made the most impact, we often think of people we were fortunate enough to meet during our youth. We weren’t as strong. We weren’t as sure. We couldn’t even pretend to have many of the answers. We looked to teachers, coaches, clergy members and other adults whom we respected. As adults, we cherish the people who fill those roles in our communities. That’s why the 2015 Everyday Heroes special section focuses on them. Sports figures, actors and musicians might be who teens idolize, but the people who fill their lives with confidence, wisdom and courage will be the ones they remember for decades to come. People like Lisa Gatewood of Wonder Lake, who temporarily has taken in more than 30 children facing difficult family situations including parental drug addiction or incarceration. Another, like John Jelinek, a McHenry youth pastor, who helps teens find their worth and spiritual needs. Or an Everyday Hero like Jennifer Cody, a Harvard teacher who helps special education students learn life skills. We hope you enjoy their stories as much as we enjoy sharing them.

Her attorney, Mark Gummerson, called the indictment “a travesty.” “The woman has given 32 years of her life to this county, to the victims, and their families, and they [the State’s Attorney’s

WASHINGTON – Illinois Rep. Aaron Schock repaid $40,000 from his personal checking account for redecorations to his congressional office in the style of the TV show “Downton Abbey,” according to financial records reviewed by The Associated Press. Schock paid $35,000 this month to the owner of the Illinois decorating firm Euro Trash, and $5,000 more Thursday, the records showed. His official House expense account previously had paid the group for its services. Schock, a rising star in the Republican Party, has been under scrutiny for using taxpayer money to pay for the redecorating, as well as using his official and campaign funds for flights on donor-owned planes and concert tickets. The Washington Post was first to describe the office decorations in early February. A watchdog group has since requested a House ethics review of the congressman’s spending. Schock’s office said Friday his payments made good on an earlier promise to personally shoulder the costs of the office renovation. Schock wrote two checks – for $25,000 on Feb. 4 and $10,000 on Feb. 6 – to Tracy “Annie” Brahler, owner of Euro Trash. He wrote a third check for $5,000 on Thursday. “Congressman Schock has fulfilled his commitment to pay for all the renovation costs,” his office said Friday in a prepared statement. It said that while congressional office costs usually are paid from office expense accounts, “the congressman

@NWHerald

It’s time to stick a shovel in winter I think I’ve done everything I really wanted to do this winter: I schlepped snow. I fell on the ice in the driveway. I threw a snowball and missed. I played pond hockey and took a puck to the shins. I went sledding and was taken out by a family of five on a toboggan. But there’s more. I built a cool snow sculpture of a cat and the head fell off. I had a near-frostbite experience with my red, rosy cheeks. I even did an involuntary 360-degree doughnut spin with my car in a parking lot. After that, my wife referred to me as “Richard Petty on Geritol.” So much for winter fun. So I’ve had it with this bitter, daylight-starved, melancholy season. I’m tired of having to dress like a Nepalian Sherpa when I go outside. I weary from looking out the window to see a pure white carpet of snow suffocating every living thing it touches. And I am pained by the thought of once again having to send my wife out into the frigid cold to warm up the car. And I don’t want to hear any more about what the groundhog says. Somehow, listening to the extended forecast

LOTTERY

JUST HUMOR ME Michael Penkava of a capricious oversized rat doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. I have enough trouble with the two-legged weather prognosticators. Besides, I don’t care what Punxsutawney Phil of Pennsylvania sees on Feb. 2. This year he saw his shadow, which means there’s six more weeks of winter. But did you know there are other groundhogs who disagree with him? For example, Buckeye Chuck from Marion, Ohio, didn’t see his shadow, indicating that there will be an early spring. Neither did Sir Walter Wally of Raleigh, North Carolina, or General Beauregard Lee from Lilburn, Georgia. Then there’s Jimmy the Groundhog from Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, who, when the mayor leaned in to hear his prediction, promptly bit him on the ear. In the eerie chaos that

followed there was great confusion as to what Jimmy actually predicted. Maybe Jimmy just wasn’t in the mood to talk after being abducted from his natural environment, thrust in front of a seething crowd, and having his face impelled into a politician’s ear canal. Finicky rodent. So, let’s see … spring is scheduled to be here March 20 at 5:45 p.m., no matter what that band of mangy marmots say. That’s in less than one month. In the meantime, there are some things we can do to take the edge off of winter and outlast it. A few weeks ago I had the brilliant idea of taking my wife to a local home and garden expo. I thought seeing some real living green stuff would remind us of what was just around the corner. At least that’s what I thought. We went to the expo and serpentined our way through the exhibits, searching for our garden fix. We threaded past leafless gutter systems and bathtub and shower liners. No plant people. We slipped past the insulation systems and the roofing contractors. No flower displays. We

stared straight ahead as we soldiered our way past the whole house generators and the solar power systems and the tubular skylights. Still no garden stuff. Finally, we saw it. A guy with lawn mowers. You know, the big kind that you need if you own a golf course. He told us that he thought there was one landscaper booth somewhere, but we had enough of the “Home With No Garden Expo.” So I guess we’ll need to hang onto our dreams of spring for a little longer. It will come. It always does. And you don’t need a groundhog or an expo booth of a walk-in tub with optional essential oil aromatherapy to tell you that.

LOCAL BRIEFS Algonquin police use Narcan to revive woman ALGONQUIN – Algonquin police administered Narcan on an unresponsive woman early Friday morning after a possible heroin overdose. According to an Algonquin Police Department news release, officers responded to a call for a potential drug overdose at 1:30 a.m. Friday. Officers found a woman in her mid-30s lying unconscious on the floor in her residence. Responders then administered Narcan in an effort to revive the woman who awoke and could talk to officers within minutes of receiving the treatment. She was taken to an area hospital for further treatment and evaluation. Algonquin police, with assistance from the Kane County Health Department, have carried Narcan – a nonaddictive drug that can reverse a fatal opioid overdose – since October 2014.

Man charged with drug-induced homicide SPRING GROVE – An Ingleside man has been charged with drug-induced homicide in connection to the death of a Spring Grove woman in November. Jacob D. Mazzuca, 21, of Ingleside, was charged Friday with drug-induced homicide – a Class X felony – and unlawful delivery of a controlled substance, a Class 2 felony. A Class X felony is punishable by up to 30 years in prison. After an investigation by the Lake County Sheriff’s Office, officers determined Mazzuca provided Cristina Villasana, 21, of Spring Grove, with a synthetic drug known as SASS – a form of ecstasy. Villasana was taken to a hospital the morning of Nov. 11 and was pronounced dead by 7:52 p.m. According to a Lake County Sheriff’s Office news release, false information provided by the people who drove Villasana to the hospital hampered the initial investigation. Mazzuca is being held in the Lake County Jail on a $750,000 bond.

A TV newsmagazine is profiling the 1993 Crystal Lake murder of Beth Bosworth. occurred was tight knit, Wagner said, and detectives had a feeling that someone there would be key to solving the crime. With every person they interviewed, police repeated a variation of the same sentence. “Whoever committed this crime, when we find them, we want to hear their side,

because there might be a reasonable explanation,” Wagner recalled telling neighbors. That sentence brought sharp reactions from neighbors for its sheer audacity. A teenager girl was killed, how dare police say the crime could be excusable, Wagner recalled. Well, almost everyone had

that reaction. Not Dale Kauke. He agreed with police that there could be a reasonable explanation for the crime. “Right then and there I knew we had our guy,” Wagner said. “It was just so out of the norm that it raised so many red flags.”

In asking for a higher bond amount, Assistant State’s Attorney Robert Zalud told the judge that Aguilar later sold heroin to an undercover officer, and acknowledged that he sold drugs to someone who died. He allegedly told the officer to go slow because the heroin was strong. Aguilar’s next court date is March 26. This is the second pending drug-induced homicide case in McHenry County. Earlier

this month, a 34-year-old Zion man was charged with providing heroin to an Algonquin woman. James F. Linder also is represented by Sugden for the death of 21-year-old Danielle Barzyk. Drug-induced homicide is a Class X felony punishable by a minimum of 15 years in prison. Members of the U.S. Marshals Great Lakes Regional Fugitive Task Force, Lake County Metropolitan Enforcement Group, the Wauconda Police Department and the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office assisted in the arrest of Aguilar.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The hearing on the controversial Crystal Lake South High School bleachers has once again been postponed – this time at the request of the neighbors. The issue is now scheduled to come before the Crystal Lake Planning and Zoning Commission at its April 15 meeting, which will start at 7:30 p.m. in the council chambers at Crystal Lake City Hall, 100 W. Woodstock St. This is the second time the hearing has been rescheduled. The district’s attorney had requested that the original February hearing be postponed because one or more of the consultants could not make the meeting. This time Thomas Burney, the attorney representing the owners of three properties that back up onto the bleachers, requested the postponement, saying in an email to the city that he had a conflict that could not be rescheduled. The property owners had sued Community High School District 155 in August 2013, arguing in their complaint that the district failed to go through the city’s zoning process. The district is now going through that process – even as the lawsuit, which now includes the city of Crystal Lake, waits to be heard by the Illinois Supreme Court. The district’s request for special use permits were filed in December, not long after one of the district’s appeals was dismissed. The proposal set to be considered by the city’s Planning and Zoning Commission includes some modifications to the expanded bleachers. The district has already made some changes designed to minimize the bleachers’ impact, including relocating the portable restrooms to a more remote location, increasing security during games as well as when the bleachers are not in use, and restricting access to the top and side seating by roping off those areas, the district said in a news release when it filed the request. A forestry consultant has also been hired to look into creating a barrier between the bleachers and the neighboring properties.

Get your business connected Business retention is a cornerstone of economic development. More than 80 percent of business growth comes from existing businesses, and our goal is to keep these businesses in McHenry County and help them grow. In 2014, your McHenry County Economic Development Corp. staff and board members conducted 100 individual one-on-one business visitations. Why? First, we want to let our businesses know they are valued and appreciated for their effect on our economy. Secondly, through these meetings, we can see trends, issues and concerns that need to be communicated and addressed. A recurrent theme we heard during the visitations in 2012, 2013 and 2014 was a concern for developing a skilled workforce since our employment base was aging. To act on this issue, MCEDC has been partnering with McHenry County College and others to provide skills training and to establish a youth outreach program on the value of, and need for, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) education. From intern programs to facility tours, we are trying to engage our youth and encourage the development of skills needed in our workplace today and tomorrow.

MCEDC NEWS Pamela Cumpata Through the insights gained in the business visitations, MCEDC can provide customized assistance by either connecting companies to resources they might need, advocating for solutions to any challenges they are facing or finding solutions to obstacles they are experiencing. Communicating the pulse of the business community to our municipalities also is important to our mission of fostering a positive business environment for growth. We host quarterly educational forums for municipal staff and conduct economic development presentations before municipal elected officials. (In 2014, Algonquin, Crystal Lake, Huntley, Lake in the Hills, McHenry and Woodstock, with others planned in 2015.) These presentations provide information on basic economic development practices as well as current trends, highlight the collaboration that occurs between their municipal staff and MCEDC through partnering for business visitations, and provide research and proprietary reports (more than 500 in 2014), as well as sharing information

on regional initiatives and programs that could support their municipality. Of great interest is the IMPLAN data we share. It traces output, employment and employment compensation. This data assists in the comparison of overall economic growth or decline by industry sectors and is only one of several subscription-based data resources we make available to our municipalities at no cost. For example, McHenry County’s data for model year 2013 (the latest available data) shows our output is $18,833,612, 279. (Output represents the value of industry production.) Our largest sector is manufacturing at $5,585,256,664.

Marlene Lantz can petition County Board to pay for her legal defense • LANTZ Continued from page A1 Office] indict her on this?” Gummerson said. “It’s just so obvious what is going on. “We truly believe that she is innocent and we will zealously defend these charges.” Because the alleged crime occurred while Lantz was coroner, she can petition the County Board to pay for her legal defense. The County Board has bad, and expensive, memories of the last time a county elected official was indicted. On top of the substantial bills racked up by the special prosecutors appointed to investigate Bianchi, he asked the board after his exoneration to reimburse him for his legal fees incurred in defending himself and his former secretary. The County Board agreed to pay $275,000. The county under its agreement with Bianchi recouped $105,000 of that cost from a settlement that Bianchi reached in a federal civil-rights lawsuit he filed against the special prosecu-

tors. There was no special prosecutor in Lantz’s case. It was brought before a grand jury by Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs, who also will prosecute. Combs, who also is chief of the criminal division, declined to comment on the case. Police remained equally as tight-lipped on the investigation. Woodstock Police Chief Robert Lowen confirmed that his department was called by the Coroner’s and State’s Attorney’s offices Jan. 26 to investigate the discovery of the remains. The coroner’s annex falls under the auspices of the Woodstock Police Department. Like Combs and Bianchi, Lowen also wouldn’t discuss details. McHenry County Coroner Dr. Anne Majewski also wouldn’t comment when reached through email correspondence. Majewski took office on Dec. 1, 2012. It remains unclear exactly where in the coroner’s annex the remains were found, the circumstances of their discovery, where they are now, and what condition they’re in.

“I wish I could disclose to you, but we’re getting into the facts of the case before the trial,” Bianchi said. The coroner’s office is located behind the county courthouse, and its 15 rooms including office space, autopsy and viewing rooms, and a large freezer, total 4,900-square feet, according to its floor plans. Lantz’s case has been assigned to McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather. Her next court date is March 11, Gummerson said. If convicted of a Class 3 felony, Lantz could not only be looking at between two and five years in prison, but also will stand to lose her pension. Under state law, her Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund pension will be terminated if she is convicted of a felony in connection with her former job. She is collecting a $65,858 annual pension, according to IMRF records obtained under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act.

‘On the Case’ will air at 9 p.m. Sunday • MURDER CASE Continued from page A3 But there still was not enough evidence to arrest Kauke, a 39-year-old volunteer firefighter who lived in a house near Bosworth’s. Kauke, as it turned out, had developed a fascination for Bosworth. Police first uncovered Kauke’s bloody fingerprint

at the crime scene, then after his arrest, found writings in which he indicated he wanted a romantic relationship with the girl, Wagner said. The night of the attack and fire, Kauke had been drinking with neighbors, and at some point went to Bosworth’s home, cut the screen door to gain entry and attacked the girl. There were no signs of a sexual assault, but Bosworth

had about 30 stab and other defensive wounds. Bosworth eventually barricaded herself in the bathroom, where she died. Kauke pleaded guilty to the crime and avoided a possible death sentence. A McHenry County judge sentenced him to life in prison. “On the Case” will air at 9 p.m. Sunday on Investigation Discovery.

Schock in his 4th term representing Peoria, Springfield areas • DECOR Continued from page A1 believed it appropriate to pay these costs himself.” Schock, 33, is in his fourth term representing the Peoria and Springfield areas. This week, Schock brought on board a team of campaign finance lawyers and public relations experts to address the controversy about his expenses. His financial charges – including the use of his donors’ private aircraft and concert tickets – were detailed by the AP and other news organizations since news of the decoration work became public. An AP review this week identified at least a dozen flights worth more than $40,000

on contributors’ planes since mid-2011, tracking Schock’s reliance on the aircraft partly through the congressman’s pictures uploaded to his Instagram account. The AP extracted hidden location data associated with each image; it then correlated it with flight records showing airport stopovers and expenses later billed for air travel against Schock’s office and campaign records. Lawmakers can use office funds for private flights as long as payments cover their share of the costs. But most of the flights Schock covered with office funds occurred before the House changed its rules in January 2013. Those earlier rules prohibited lawmakers from using those accounts to pay for

flights on private aircraft, allowing payments only for federally licensed charter and commercial flights. Schock previously told the AP he travels frequently throughout his Peoria-area district “to stay connected with my constituents,” and that he takes compliance with congressional funding rules seriously. Schock also spent thousands more on tickets for concerts, car mileage reimbursements – among the highest in Congress – and took his interns to a sold-out Katy Perry concert last June. His office still is reviewing those transportation and entertainment charges. The Post first reported that Brahler donated her services

as she decorated Schock’s Washington office with red carpet and red walls accented with antique-looking frames and sconces reminiscent of “Downton Abbey.” The popular PBS show depicts the lives of aristocratic families and their servants in 1920s England. Brahler refunded to the U.S. government $35,000 paid to her from Schock’s congressional office expense account, records show, within days of the Post’s report. A liberal-leaning group, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, had requested an investigation by the Office of Congressional Ethics, an outside panel that reviews ethics complaints against House members.

Former gov. blasts Rauner’s budget By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Former Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn offered a preview Friday of his life after public office, delivering a speech on consumer rights to lawyers and students and also taking a shot at his successor. The Democratic governor, who lost to Republican Bruce Rauner in November, used his first public appearance since leaving the governorship to give a keynote during a Loyola University Chicago School of Law panel on forced arbitration. He recalled his activist days helping start Citizens Utility Board, scrutinized Chicago Pat Quinn officials and lawmakers on protecting consumer rights and said he planned on citizen-focused advocacy work. “I’ve done a lot of petition drives ... I still think I can collect autographs of everyday people for causes that really count,” he told reporters. “Using petition and referendums sometimes is the only way you have to go around the lobbyists and special interest groups and sometimes the legislators who pay too much attention to them. We’ve got to wake them up and going to the ballot box with a referendum is the only way to do it.” He also reflected on his gubernatorial loss, warning the Republican’s proposed budget would “harm Illinois for generations.” “If anybody in Illinois knew the budget he presented last week was what he had in store, the election result would have been different on Nov. 4,” he said. “That’s the worst budget

I’ve ever seen that any governor has presented in the history of Illinois. It’s very, very unfair to important causes that help everyday people.” Rauner has repeatedly said that Quinn signed a budget that was incomplete, phony and not balanced. His proposed spending plan – which is sure to face tough challenges in the Democrat-controlled House and Senate – calls for major cuts, including $1.5 billion from Medicaid. Other cuts would impact mental health and addiction treatment and after-school programs. Quinn said he’s still working on a final report with recommendations and ideas for lawmakers, which he expects to finish this year. He wouldn’t directly address some of his own more controversial moves, including a flurry of activity before he left office. Quinn commuted the sentences of six people, issued three executive orders, handed out appointments and signed bills during Rauner’s inaugural celebrations. Quinn, who has a law degree, played the part of a student Friday, taking notes during the panel and asking what legislators could do when it comes to companies requiring arbitration to resolve disputes. Critics say being forced into arbitration shields corporations from public scrutiny lawsuits can generate, among other things. Proponents’ arguments include saving time and money. He wouldn’t rule out a future run for public office nor discuss the Chicago mayoral race, saying he’s focused on other things currently. He said these days he’s playing basketball, watching sports and taking “vigorous brisk” walks. “We’ll see what happens,” he said. “I like organizing citizens.”

Rauner appoints board members at 3 colleges SPRINGFIELD – Gov. Bruce Rauner has announced several appointments at three Illinois colleges. John Gilbert, Joel Sambursky and Amy Sholar will serve on the board of trustees at Southern Illinois University. Gilbert and Sambursky live in Carbondale, where the school is located, while Sholar lives in Alton. Timothy Burke of Evanston will join the Eastern Illinois University’s Board of Trustees. He graduated from the school in Charleston, and currently is a member of its Foundation Board of Trustees. The Rev. Marshall Hatch will join the board of trustees at Chicago State University. He’s been the pastor of the New Mt. Pilgrim Missionary Baptist Church on Chicago’s West Side since 1993.

after missing a deadline to pay state fees and submit proof of a surety bond, officials said Friday. Green Thumb Industries LLC had an option to buy land near the northwest Illinois city of Dixon but canceled it, according to John Thompson, president of the Lee County Development Association. A GTI spokeswoman declined to comment to the Chicago Tribune. A representative of the state Agriculture Department, which oversees cultivation centers under the new medical marijuana law, confirmed GTI missed a Wednesday deadline.

interests at stake” in sticking to the March 19 sentencing date. Farnham’s been under house arrest. He pleaded guilty to transporting child pornography and faces a maximum 20-year prison term. Defense lawyers asked for the delay, citing Farnham’s pulmonary fibrosis, a condition that damages lung tissue. They say he likely has less than six months to live.

Rauner says he’s ‘staying out’ of mayor’s race

CHICAGO – Gov. Bruce Rauner said he’s “staying out of” the Chicago mayor’s race. Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Cook County Commissioner Judge won’t delay Jesus “Chuy” Garcia are facing sentencing for Farnham off April 7. CHICAGO – A federal judge Emanuel and Rauner are in Chicago is refusing to delay friends and worked together sentencing for ex-Illinois Rep. during Emanuel’s time as an Keith Farnham on a child pornography conviction despite investment banker.

Emanuel was the top vote-getter, followed by Garcia.

Photographer acquitted on charges of taking birds OTTAWA – A northern Illinois nature photographer has been found not guilty on charges of illegally taking two injured baby eagles from the wild, four months after his first trial ended with a deadlocked jury. Steve Patterson of Oglesby was accused of illegally taking the federally protected birds from a spot near his home in June 2013 and arranging for their rehabilitation at a Barrington wildlife center even though conservation officials told him to leave them alone. Jurors decided for Patterson on Thursday. Prosecutors had argued that Patterson should have followed orders from state Conservation Police, who told him not to touch the birds. They also said he has a history of tampering with wildlife. The judge did not permit testimony that the birds would have died if left on their own.

Bill to keep Homeland Security open OK’d WASHINGTON – Bordering on dysfunction, Congress passed a one-week bill late Friday night to avert a partial shutdown of the Homeland Security Department, as leaders in both political parties quelled a revolt by House conservatives furious that the measure left President Barack Obama’s immigration policy intact. The final vote of a long day and night was a bipartisan 35760 in the House, a little more than an hour after the Senate cleared the measure without so much as a roll call. That sent the legislation to the White House for Obama’s signature, and capped a day of bruising political battles and rhetoric to match. “You have made a mess,” House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi said at one point to Republicans, as recriminations filled the House chamber and the midnight deadline neared for a partial shutdown of an agency with major anti-terrorism responsibilities. Even some Republicans readily agreed. “There are terrorist attacks all over world and we’re talking

Some Republican opponents – members of a “Freedom Caucus” – sat together in the chamber as the vote total mounted in the legislation’s favor. This time, Pelosi urged her rank-and-file to support the short-term measure, saying it would lead to passage next week of a bill to fund the agency through the Sept. 30 end of the budget year without immigration add-ons. Aides to Speaker John Boehner promptly said there had been no such promise made. Taken together, the day’s roller-coaster events at the Capitol underscored the difficulty Republicans have had so far this year in translating last fall’s election gains into legislative accomplishment – a step its own leaders say is necessary to establish the party’s AP photo credentials as a responsible, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky walks to the Senate chamber Friday from his office governing party. Republicans on Capitol Hill in Washington as Congress considered a short-term spending bill for the Homeland Security gained control of the Senate Department that would avert a partial agency shutdown hours before it was to begin.

Nimoy, known as Mr. Spock on ‘Star Trek,’ dies at age 83 By LYNN ELBER The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – In 1975, Leonard Nimoy published an autobiography with the defiant title, “I Am Not Spock” – an attempt to show the world he had many more facets than the pointy-eared character that had come to define him. Yet two decades later, after proving that with a career that became a rich blend of roles beyond “Star Trek” along with directing, writing and photography, he bowed to fate with “I Am Spock,” a revisionist sequel. Nimoy had come to appreciate Mr. Spock’s enduring legacy and the inspiration the man of logic provided the actor and his fans alike. “He’s a part of me,” he wrote in his second memoir. “Not a day passes that I don’t hear that cool, rational voice commenting on some irrational aspect of Leonard the human con- Nimoy dition.” “And if I’m not listening to Spock’s voice, then I’m listening to the voices of those who know the Vulcan and consider him an old friend. ... It always amazes me and touches me to discover how deeply the series affected so many people’s lives – people who chose careers in science, astronomy, space exploration, all because of one television show called Star Trek.” Nimoy had skillfully turned what could have been a caricature into a dignified, inspiringly intellectual and even touching figure, a half-human, half-Vulcan who was a multicultural and multiethnic touchstone, well before it was hip. Nimoy died Friday of endstage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease at his Los Angeles home, with family at his side, said his son, Adam Nimoy. He was 83. His final public statement, last Sunday on Twitter, was thoughtful and bittersweet. “A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory,” he wrote, followed by his

customary “LLAP” signoff – shorthand for “Live long and prosper,” Spock’s catch phrase. The reaction to his death was swift, on Earth and in space. “I loved him like a brother. We will all miss his humor, his talent, and his capacity to love,” said William Shatner, whose often-emotional Captain Kirk was balanced by the composed Nimoy. President Barack Obama said, “I loved Spock.” “Long before being nerdy was cool, there was Leonard Nimoy,” Obama said in a statement. “Cool, logical, big-eared and level-headed, the center of Star Trek’s optimistic, inclusive vision of humanity’s future.” “Live Long and Prosper, Mr. (hashtag) Spock!” tweeted Italian astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti, aboard the International Space Station. George Takei, Mr. Sulu of “Star Trek,” called Nimoy a great man and friend. “We return you now to the stars, Leonard. You taught us to ‘Live Long and Prosper,’ and you indeed did, friend,” Takei said. In a 2009 interview with The Associated Press, Nimoy recalled how an early stage role left him “obsessed” with pursuing work that had a social impact. “I’ve fulfilled that dream, including ‘Star Trek,’ for that matter,” he said. “If that’s part of the legacy, then I’m very pleased with that. I would hope the work I chose to do had some reason for being done other than just simply being a job.” After “Star Trek” ended, the actor immediately joined the hit adventure series “Mission Impossible” as Paris, the mission team’s master of disguises. He also hosted the syndicated TV series “In Search of ... ,” which attempted to probe such mysteries as the legend of the Loch Ness Monster. Other notable roles included Israeli leader Golda Meir’s husband opposite Ingrid Bergman in the TV drama “A Woman Called Golda; he continued to work well into his twilight years, playing wealthy genius William Bell in the Fox series “Fringe.”

Gunman kills 7, commits suicide By JIM SALTER The Associated Press TYRONE, Mo. – A man who authorities say may have been unhinged by the death of his ailing mother killed seven people and then took his own life in a house-to-house shooting rampage that wiped out a swath of this tiny town in the Missouri Ozarks. Joseph Jesse Aldridge, 36, carried out the killings with a .45-caliber handgun Thursday night or early Friday at four homes in Tyrone, the no-stoplight community of about 50 people where he lived with his mother, the Missouri State Highway Patrol said. Joseph Aldridge was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound before dawn in a running pickup truck on the middle of a highway 15 or 20 miles away. The patrol said four of the dead – two couples – were cousins of Aldridge’s, ranging in age from 47 to 52. The names of the rest of the dead – and an eighth victim who was wounded but expected to survive – were being withheld until relatives could be notified. All the victims were adults and were gunned down within a few miles of one another. Authorities said the motive was unclear and no suicide note was found. But as the investigation unfolded, they found Aldridge’s 74-year-old mother, Alice L. Aldridge, dead, apparently of natu-

A man who authorities say may have been unhinged by the death of his ailing mother killed seven people and then took his own life in a house-to-house shooting rampage. ral causes, on a couch at her home, officials said. She had been under a doctor’s care and appeared to have been dead at least 24 hours, Texas County Coroner Tom Whittaker told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Whittaker speculated that the son “came home and found her deceased and then for whatever reason went on a rampage and started killing people.” Around town, Aldridge was described as a recluse, and it was unclear what, if anything, he did for a living. The killings traumatized Tryone, a town about 40 miles from the Arkansas line where many residents are related to

one another, Sheriff James Sigman said. He said the last homicide in the county was a year and a half ago. “Start locking your doors,” the sheriff said. “The world’s changing. You’ve got to be safe.” The sheriff’s office learned of the attack when it got a call about 10:15 p.m. Thursday from a young woman who said she had fled to a neighbor’s home after hearing gunshots in her house. The neighbor, who refused to give his name, told The Associated Press that the teenage girl was barefoot and clad only in a nightgown when she came running across a snow-covered field full of thickets that

left her legs cut up. “She was crying so hard, but I finally got out of her ‘My mom and dad have been shot,’ ” the neighbor said. When officers arrived at the girl’s home, they found two people dead. Authorities later found five more people dead and one wounded in three other homes. The wounded person was hospitalized in undisclosed condition. Sheriff’s officers did a house-by-house sweep to make sure there were no more bodies. John W. Shriver, 72, of Tyrone, said he discovered the bodies of two of the victims after getting a call Thursday night from a screaming relative who had been wounded in a shooting that killed her husband. Shriver said he found a man and his wife unresponsive on their bedroom floor and alerted law enforcement. Shriver said the couple’s 13-year-old son slept through the killings and that he took the teen to his home after the bodies were found. “Everybody is kind of just dazed I’d guess you’d say,” said Shriver, adding the killer “didn’t have much to do with people” and “kind of stayed to himself.” The patrol identified some of the dead as Garold Dee Aldridge, 52; his 47-year-old wife, Julie Ann Aldridge; Harold Wayne Aldridge, 50; and that man’s wife, 48-year-old Janell Arlisa Aldridge.

Mexico official: Police capture top capo ‘La Tuta’ Gomez The ASSOCIATED PRESS MEXICO CITY – Servando “La Tuta” Gomez, a former school teacher who became one of Mexico’s most-wanted drug lords as head of the Knights Templar cartel, was captured early Friday by federal police, according to Mexican officials. Gomez was arrested in a house in Morelia, the capital of the western state of Michoacan, without a shot fired, according to a Mexican official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the case. He said the op-

position from conservatives as well as Democrats and the White House. Aides attributed that decision to the need to work separately on rounding up enough votes to pass the funding measure for Homeland Security. For their part, tea party conservatives in the House unflinchingly defended their actions. “It does not make any difference whether the funding is for three weeks, three months or a full fiscal year. If it’s illegal, it’s illegal,” said Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Ala. He referred to a pair of immigration directives issued by Obama. The first, in 2012, lifted the threat of deportation from many immigrants brought to the country illegally as youngsters. Another order last fall applied to millions more who are in the United States unlawfully. The unexpected House defeat of a three-week spending bill was accomplished by 52 conservatives upset by the deletion of the immigration provisions, alongside solid opposition from Democrats who wanted the agency funded through Sept. 30.

eration was based on months of intelligence work. The 49-year-old led the Knights Templar, a quasi-religious criminal group that once ruled all of Michoacan, controlling politics and commerce and preaching a code of ethics around devotion to God and family, even as it murdered and plundered. The cartel lost power when the federal government took over the state to try to restore order in January 2014. But Gomez evaded capture for more than a year, while other Knights Templar leaders were

captured or killed. The Mexican government had offered a $2 million reward for his capture, and he also was wanted in the United States for conspiracy to import and distribute cocaine. “With this arrest, the rule of law is strengthened in the country and we continue to advance toward a Mexico at peace,” President Enrique Pena Nieto said on his Twitter account. The arrest is a badly needed win for Pena Nieto, who has faced political and security crises since 43 college students dis-

appeared last fall at the hands of local authorities in Guerrero state, and conflict-of-interest scandals emerged involving his personal home and that of the country’s treasury secretary. It coincided with Friday’s announcement that Pena Nieto’s embattled attorney general, Jesus Murillo Karam, would leave his post after months of scathing criticism over his handling of the students’ disappearance as well as a June case in which soldiers killed more than a dozen suspected criminals after they surrendered.

District 26 improves financial report card The Northwest Herald Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs up: To Cary School District 26 officials who, over a period of years, steadily have righted the ship after being endangered on the state’s financial watchlist. The latest move forward was this week, when Moody’s Investors Service removed a negative outlook from the district’s credit rating. Difficult decisions were made. Salaries were frozen or reduced, but residents are in a much better financial position than they were a few years ago. Thumbs up: To the League of Women Voters of McHenry County for hosting three candidates forums in March. The first forum for McHenry High School District 156 candidates starts at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the auditorium at McHenry High School East Campus. Candidates for Crystal Lake High School District 155 will meet at 7 p.m. March 19 at McHenry County College. MCC trustee candidates will meet at 7 p.m. March 23, also at the college. Thumbs up: To Navy veteran Michael Woods of Huntley for starting A Warrior’s Mind. The nonprofit organization creates a support network to help returning military men and women return to civilian life and connects them with available resources in McHenry County. We applaud Woods for putting his passion and talents to work in the community to help others make a successful transition. Thumbs up: To the more than 500 McHenry County high school freshmen and sophomores who have signed up for dual credit courses this coming fall. A computer literacy course through McHenry County College’s dual credit program is the course these students will take. A tough and varied curriculum serves as a great way to prepare students for college and their careers beyond school.

ANOTHER VIEW

Chicago mayoral election about more than Chicago In any other year, the mayoral election in America’s third-largest city wouldn’t matter much to anyone beyond driving distance to Wrigley Field. This year’s race for Chicago’s mayor, however, reflects and could shape the direction of the Democratic Party – not to mention the future of American cities. Incumbent Rahm Emanuel failed to win outright Tuesday, finishing with 45 percent of the vote (less than the required 50 percent plus one vote) to challenger Jesus “Chuy” Garcia’s 34 percent. Both candidates are Democrats, but beyond that, they have little in common. Consider the two men’s approaches to education. Emanuel adopted teacher evaluations linked to student performance, flexible hiring and firing rules, and a longer school day (Chicago’s had been the shortest in the nation). He also increased the number of charter schools and made the politically difficult decision to close dozens of underperforming or underused schools. Garcia, who has promised to end mayoral control of the schools if elected, enjoys the strong backing of the city’s teachers union, which called a seven-day strike to protest Emanuel’s policies. Schools are the archetypal local issue, of course. But the state of the nation’s education system – especially in its cities – has a profound effect on U.S. economic growth and competitiveness, and there is disagreement in the Democratic Party over how to improve it. These differences are neatly reflected in Emanuel and Garcia. The rising cost of public pensions is another issue every state and local elected official in America must confront – and some are doing it more effectively than others. It is an especially acute problem for Democrats, with their long ties to the labor movement. Emanuel has taken on politically powerful public-sector unions to reduce the city’s pension costs. Garcia mainly has pledged to work with labor leaders on the issue, which is easier said than done. But perhaps the biggest difference between the two candidates – and the greatest current divide in the Democratic Party – is on economic matters. Emanuel has focused on bread-andbutter issues familiar to any successful mayor: cutting red tape and costs for small businesses, promoting tourism, attracting well-paying jobs. Garcia has cast his campaign in populist terms. His supporters call Emanuel, who used to work in investment banking, “Mayor 1 percent” and have embarked on a nationwide effort to defeat him. Chicago’s voters can show the nation – and the national party – that fiscally responsible government remains a priority for Democrats. Bloomberg View

IT’S YOUR WRITE Who’s unpatriotic? To the Editor: The depths to which spokespeople for the Republican Party have sunk is a new low. Former New York Mayor Rudy Guiliani claims President Obama doesn’t love America. Really? Let’s take a look at what conservative commentators have said about the president and see whether they sound patriotic to you. A day after inauguration Rush Limbaugh said he hoped Obama would fail. Ann Coulter called him a retard. Glenn Beck accused him of being a racist. Sarah Palin referred to his style as shuck and jive. Mitch McConnell pledged to make him a one-term president. Donald Trump spent two years trying to prove the president wasn’t a U.S. citizen. Do these comments sound patriotic to you? Even during the worst of George W. Bush’s presidency, Democrats did not resort to such demeaning and unpatriotic comments. By all accounts, the president is a loving husband and father, ably raising two daughters and has done nothing to disrepute the

office of the president. It’s one thing to disagree with policies, but something else to resort to personal attacks. In listening to these Republicans demonstrate their own lack of patriotism, I am reminded of an earlier period in American history when another Republican embarrassed his party and the country. Do you remember the Army-McCarthy hearings of 1954? Specifically attorney Joe Welch to Sen. McCarthy? His comment is still appropriate: “Have you no decency sir, at long last, have you left no sense of decency?” Kerry Kohlbacher Crystal Lake

Happy birthday, Dr. Seuss To the Editor: Education professionals and teachers alike appreciate what parents and community members have done to celebrate the National Education Association’s Read Across America, a campaign which encourages children to pick up a book and read during the month of March.

HOW TO SOUND OFF We welcome original letters on public issues. Letters must include the author’s full name, home address and day and evening telephone numbers. We limit letters to 250 words and one published letter every 30 days. Election-related letters are limited to 150 words. The deadline to submit an election-related letter

This year marks the 18th annual celebration of reading and Dr. Seuss’ birthday March 2. This year’s book choice is Dr. Seuss’ “Oh the Places You’ll Go!” Be a part of this flurry of reading excitement. Here are some of the ways you can help us get everyone involved in supporting children’s literacy in our community: • Take the opportunity to pick up a book and read to a child. • Help set a good example – volunteer at a local charity, school or reading program. • Bring children to your community bookstore or library. These local community spots have something for everyone.

is 5 p.m. April 1. All letters are subject to editing for length and clarity at the sole discretion of the editor. Submit letters by: • Email: letters@nwherald.com • Mail: Northwest Herald “It’s Your Write” Box 250 Crystal Lake, IL 60039-0250

• Make sure those who are in need have plenty to read. Donate or recycle your books to community organizations, the local library or a used bookstore. It’s estimated that last year almost 45 million children and adults celebrated the joy of reading on Dr. Seuss’ birthday. We hope to bring a community of readers together to drive home the message about the importance of reading. For information about NEA’s Read Across America, visit www.nea. org/readacross.

Have we dropped ball on ethical behavior? There is a man in McHenry County who was faced with a dilemma. He wanted to attend a candidates’ forum so he could be more informed on the people running for an office. However, this forum was scheduled for the night he volunteered at PADS. He had been a night volunteer there for several years. For the man, the decision was easy. His commitment to PADS took precedence. The organization could not exist without volunteers. He felt blessed in this life and wanted to help those less fortunate. That was his priority for that particular evening and for every other evening he promised to serve. Ethics. Why does it seem so many of us are lacking them? Where do they come from? We know ethical behavior is rarely seen in the news. Many of our athletes, entertainers and officials have committed acts that are not ethical, even violent. They rarely face substantial consequences. The banking industry has let the country’s economy crumble, and the corporations are just now having to pay inconsequential fines. Yet no “person” has been held accountable. So many of us let greed,

TEACHABLE MOMENTS Leslie Schermerhorn power, popularity or groupthink cloud our vision. Ethics are more than acting in a certain way so as to avoid getting caught. Adhering to the speed limit when driving to avoid getting a ticket is avoiding punishment. Driving at the posted speed because you are concerned about the safety of everyone on the road is ethical. Being a bully might make one popular or powerful but it hurts another. It is simply unethical. Many children and adults bully when they think they won’t get caught. They won’t have to pay the consequences. But that should not be a justification for bullying. Bullying is just wrong. Doing the right thing has to come from inside each of us. We get no prize for acting ethically. The payoff is intrinsic. It is in the satisfaction or pride one feels when one has done the right thing. You have contributed to the greater good of mankind. My Irish immigrant grandmother’s favorite saying was,

“Children are born savages, and it is up to us to civilize them.” By that she meant teach them right from wrong, how to behave, to be kind and to be respectful to become ethical human beings. How can we ensure our children are raised with ethics? It’s been suggested the declining attendance in churches, synagogues, temples and other religious institutions have contributed to the lack of ethical education of families. While the child might not fully adopt the religion as an adult, he’s had the training. He had to consider that he is not the center of the universe. His actions affect others. As the Dalai Lama has been quoted, “Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.” Nearly all religions include similar ideologies. Many of the high schools in McHenry County have programs such as “Choose Respect” and requirements for community service. Maybe our schools could do more. It’s hard to fit extra subjects into the school day, but philosophy and philosophical discussions allow students to grapple with the ideas of the great thinkers. This does not have to be put off until high

school. Junior high students can read adapted versions of Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas and discuss the theories proposed. There also are short stories that spark ethical debates. Sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders love to argue. Why are we reluctant to give children appropriate consequences for unethical behavior? In most cases, an apology isn’t enough. It used to be that when a child stole something, even a pack of gum, the parent would insist the child go back into the store, return the item and apologize. The parent acted ethically, insisted their child correct the unethical behavior and both had the satisfaction of knowing they had done the right thing. Actions, not talking alone, are how ethical values are instilled in our youth. Children must know it is not ethical to harm another, their beliefs or their property. To live an ethical life, we should be helping, not hurting, others. Insisting on ethical behavior among our youth is a task we must take seriously and consistently. We can’t let ethics slide. • Leslie Schermerhorn is the McHenry County Regional Superintendent of Schools.

STANDOUT STATS

Braun qualifies for two consolation finals

McHenry’s Kevin Braun competes in the 100-yard freestyle preliminary at Friday’s boys swimming and diving state finals at New Trier High School.

February 28, 2015

WINNETKA – Swimmers do everything they can, from tapering workouts to shaving heads and legs, to make sure their bodies are ready to perform in the most important moments. Kevin Braun’s preparedness was disrupted Thursday when, on the eve of the biggest meet of the season, his car was rear-ended. While the McHenry junior wasn’t seriously hurt, he said he was feeling the lingering effects of some whiplash Friday when he competed in the boys swimming state meet at New Trier High School. Braun’s performance didn’t appear much worse for the incident as he turned in two top-10 swims, good enough to earn him a pair of spots in consolation final rac-

es Saturday. “It feels awesome, it really does,” Braun said. “I’ve got such a great opportunity to go back and I didn’t get the times that I actually wanted, so I’m going to try again (Saturday), I guess. It’s going to be awesome to see all the final events and stuff and see how fast everyone is.” The second day of the finals begins at noon Saturday at New Trier, with each event’s consolation final taking place immediately before the championship race. In his second trip to the state meet, Braun swam the 50-yard freestyle in 21.01 to finish third in his heat and 10th overall. In the 100 freestyle, Braun’s time of 46.22 was only good enough for fourth in his heat but eighth best overall.

q THE GAME BALL

Kevin Braun McHenry, jr.

Braun qualified for the consolation finals in both of his individual races. He finished eighth overall in the 100-yard freestyle and 10th overall in the 50yard freestyle.

q THE NUMBER

Five of the seven local swimmers who competed were making their first appearance in the state final meet.

q THE BIG PLAY

McHenry’s 400-yard freestyle relay team led its heat after the first 100 yards and finished the race second, but the time of 3:13.78 was too close to their qualifying time, placing them 20th overall.

Cory Boeckh Jacobs, sr., G

Boeckh led the Golden Eagles with a team-high 19 points, with five of his baskets coming from 3-point range.

q THE NUMBER

Since a Dec. 27 loss to Zion-Benton, Jacobs won 14 straight games to close out the regular season.

q THE BIG PLAY

Back-to-back baskets by Jacobs early in the fourth quarter put the Golden Eagles ahead, 58-42, and a 16-point lead became too much for Prairie Ridge to overcome.

Cap regular season with 14-game winning streak By JOEY KAUFMAN jkaufman@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – After a threepoint loss to Zion-Benton on Dec. 27, Jacobs boys basketball coach Jimmy Roberts issued a simple, yet stiff challenge to his team: finish 14-0. Two months later, the Golden Eagles capped a perfect end to the regular season by reeling off 14 straight wins by finishing undefeated in conference play and by defeating Prairie Ridge on Friday night in front of their home crowd, 71-61. “He was like, ‘There’s no reason why we can’t win these next 14 games,’ ” senior guard Cory Boeckh said. “So we just went

game by game trying to get wins. It’s a pretty good accomplishment heading into the playoffs.” The contest also served as the unofficial Fox Valley Conference championship game, pitting Jacobs (22-5), the Valley division champion, against Prairie Ridge (15-12), the Fox division champion. Coupled with senior night festivities, it marked an emotional evening. “It’s always a lot of stuff going on, especially with this group,” Robert said. “You want to do them right and make sure they have a great night. So there’s all that stuff going on, and then, it’s like, we have to try and win a basketball game. It was really important. To get through it isn’t

THE DAILY

the right word, but to kind of get through it. “We wanted to go 14-0, and we did it.” Early on against Prairie Ridge, the Golden Eagles looked as formidable as ever, mounting a 16-6 lead to open the game. They led throughout the contest, and by as much as 19 points. Boeckh led the way, scoring a team-high 19 points – 11 of them coming in the first half. Senior guard Chrishawn Orange added 17, as four players finished in double-figure scoring figures. Senior forward Matt Bindi and sophomore forward Cameron Krutwig had 13 and 10, respectively.

See GOLDEN EAGLES, page C4

GENOA – Richmond-Burton sophomore guard Jake Kaufman experienced a strong week of practice shooting leading up to Friday’s game at Genoa-Kingston. But Kaufman’s practice buckets paled in comparison to what he dropped on the Cogs. “I wasn’t expecting this,” Kaufman said. “It felt great.” Kaufman hit his first six shots, five of which were 3-pointers. His backcourt mate, sophomore Blaine Bayer, nailed all four shots he took as well as the Rockets shot 58.7 percent from the field for a 71-60 Big Northern Conference East Division victory and the outright division championship, their second in a row. R-B (21-5 overall, 12-2 BNC East) could not beat Marengo in three meetings on the floor, but edged the Indians (24-5, 113) out for the division title. “They can say they beat us three times,” Kaufman said. “But we can say we won a [division] championship, so that’s a good feeling.” Kaufman and Bayer combined for five 3s in the first quarter. R-B hit eight 3s in the first half and took a 36-20 halftime lead. The Rockets went inside more in the second half with 6-foot-6 Reggie Banks and 6-9 Joey St. Pierre, eventually extending their lead to 61-42 at 6:21 of the fourth quarter. G-K (15-11, 8-6) fought back and cut the lead to 62-55 with 2:33 to go. The Cogs’ full-court pressure had R-B scrambling, but with 1:55 remaining, Bayer stepped in front of Cogs star Tommy Lucca driving to the basket and drew a charge for Lucca’s fifth foul. G-K scored to cut the lead to 62-57, but the Rockets got easy inside baskets in the final minute to pull away.

BOYS BASKETBALL: CRYSTAL LAKE SOUTH 54, GRAYSLAKE NORTH 40

‘Keeche’ gets his moment in Gators’ win By MIKE DeFABO

CRYSTAL LAKE – As time wound down Friday and it became clear Crystal Lake South would walk away with an easy, 54-40, win over Grayslake North, a buzz spread through the Gators’ gym. It started with a low murmur, but quickly grew until the Crystal Lake South student section was in full throat. “We want Keeche. We want Keeche. We want Keeche.” It wasn’t quite a “Rudy” moment. But it was close. They were cheering for senior Cordel Breitenstein. That’s what it says on the roster, at least. They all know him

Crystal Lake South, Sr., F.

Bartusch scored 10 of his 11 points in the second half to help the Gators stretch their lead to double digits.

q THE NUMBER

Players in double figures for the Gators. Seniors Tyler Baker (13 points) and Kyle Bartusch (11) put the game away with some help from juniors Zachary Geske (12) and Josh Friesen (10).

q THE BIG PLAY

Geske nailed a 3-pointer as time expired in the first quarter.

by his nickname and middle name Keeche, an acronym for all of his grandparents and great grandparents (Konrad, Emmett, Edward, Charles, Harold and Edward). “My parents thought of it at like 3 in the morning,” Keeche said. The 6-foot-4 senior has played maybe three minutes the whole season, if that. But he earned the respect of the coaching staff by sticking with the sport when so many others would have quit. Earlier in the year, the center was elbowed in the eye during practice. The injury earned him a handful of stitches, but no days off. “He practiced the next day,”

Crystal Lake South coach Matt LePage said. “Anybody who will do that, deserves a night like tonight.” LePage chose to start all five of his seniors, including Keeche. He ran through a tunnel of cheerleaders and participated in the wacky high-fives the rest of his teammates routinely share before tip off. “It was probably the coolest experience I’ve had this year,” Keeche said. But after the feel-good moment, Keeche quickly was subbed back to his familiar spot on the bench. Seniors Tyler Baker (13 points) and Kyle Bartusch (11) put the game away with some help from juniors Zachary

Geske (12) and Josh Friesen (10) to help the Gators improve to 17-10 in a Fox Valley Conference Valley crossover. Still, this game wasn’t so much about seniors scoring their last baskets on their home court. It soon became more about the senior trying to score his first varsity basket. With about a minute and a half remaining, LePage gave in to the student section’s request and called a timeout. Keeche got in. Now to get him a basket. The Gators fed the senior the ball into the low post with less than a minute remaining. He hoisted an off-balance shot. The gym went quiet. The ball bounced off the backboard and

Refocused Whips top Warriors

Trojans turn up ‘D’ late

By TIM SIECK sports@nwherald.com

By KEN KOZEL sports@nwherald.com CARY GROVE – Back and forth. Back and forth: only two points separated Cary-Grove and Grayslake Central at the start of the fourth quarter of their Fox Valley Conference boys basketball crossover game. At the end of the first quarter it was tied, and by halftime, the Trojans had a two-point lead, which they held through three quarters until their defense tightened its grip. The Rams didn’t manage a basket for six minutes as the Trojans pulled away for a 48-39 victory on senior night. “They know how to run zone and they did it well [in the second half].” Grayslake Central coach Darrick Ellis said. “Every time we tried to get the ball inside, they would do a great job of collapsing to the ball.” At 6-foot-5, Michael Coleman, a senior forward for the Trojans (15-11), played a big hand in the collapse of the Rams’ (13-14) offense. Coleman swatted desperate scoring tries in the post and forced the Rams to shoot from the perimeter, where they struggled to convert, missing on 13 of 20 shots. “We play a zone, so it’s a team effort.” Coleman said. “We all have a responsibility to cover our spots on the floor. If someone comes into my spot, I have to do my job and guard my spot.” Coleman was able to do his work relatively penalty-free, keeping the Rams from getting uncontested baskets from the free-throw line. Although Grayslake Central’s production sunk like a boat anchor in the fourth quarter, the Trojans’ offense floated on the back of senior guard Justin Blair, who led his crew with 17 points, eight of which came in the crucial final minutes of the game. “They like to pressure on defense.” Blair said. “When they tried to clamp down, I looked to cut right around them and get to the basket. “It feels great to get this win on senior night.” Jason Gregoire added to his alltime scoring record for the Trojans with eight points, drawing fouls while running the offense and clogging lanes on defense. “Our guards did a great job of sinking to the ball on defense.” CaryGrove coach Ralph Schuetzle said. “[On offense] they kind of forced us to drive, so drive and kick was there, and we hit our shots.”

In the 100-yard butterfly, Schopen was near the front of his heat in the first 50 yards but fell back and finished 7th with a time of 51.42, 17th overall. In the 200 freestyle, Schopen finished 32nd overall at 1:45.75. The two were joined by junior Jackson Smith and freshman Chase Skopek for McHenry’s 400 freestyle relay. The Warriors finished second in their heat at 3:13.78, but 20th overall. Cary-Grove junior Cooper Langanis also swam in a pair of events, finishing 25th overall in both the 200 freestyle (1:44.70) and 500 freestyle (4:43.48). Langanis, a first-time state qualifier, started both races near the front of the pack but fell back over time. “I knew I had to go out fast, that’s what I did at sectionals also and I just wanted to see where that could get

me, because I knew I had to be a fast pace to be able to make it to finals,” Langanis said. “I couldn’t hold on to it, which is all right, I’m not too mad about it, but it was just fun to race.” The other state qualifier from the Cary-Grove co-op team, Crystal Lake Central freshman Nick Jasinski, got his first taste of the big stage, racing in one event, the 100 backstroke. Jasinski finished 36th overall with a

time of 54.22. Huntley senior Bryan Haage finished his career with his first trip to state. Haage finished fourth in his heat of the 200-yard individual medley at 1:57.15, good enough for 21st overall. Haage got a slow start in his second event, the 100 freestyle, and finished 34th overall with a time of 48.09.

Rockets won’t have to share league title • ROCKETS Continued from page C1 “It’s about time,” Rockets coach Brandon Creason said. “We couldn’t shoot worse than we have, really. We worked in practice to address that. And a lot of them were 3s. We were on fire and that opened things up inside in the second half.” R-B knew it would have its fifth BNC East titles in seven years, regardless of what happened Friday after Marengo lost Tuesday at Burlington Central. The Rockets were thrilled not to have to share the title.

“It’s a magical feeling,” said senior forward Sam Kaufman, who had 15 points and a game-high nine rebounds. “We battled hard. It looked like we were down [in the race] and we came back. We deserved it. We’re young, but we’re talented and we played hard.” Jake Kaufman finished with his season-high 20 points and hit five 3s. Bayer added 10 points and Banks scored 11. Lucca led all players with 21 points and forward Tommy Hansen chipped in with 12 for the Cogs. “The start of the game we kind of dug ourselves a hole, they hit five treys in the first quarter and eight

in the first half,” Cogs coach Corey Jenkins said. “They were shooting terrific in the first half. I was proud of the fact that our kids came back and competed.” Creason empathized with Marengo coach Nate Wright, with whom he is friends through coaching girls golf and boys basketball. Wright was there watching Friday, hoping his Indians could still grab a share of the title. “You can never do this enough,” Creason said. “Nate’s done a great job and Marengo’s a great team, so we’re pretty fortunate to be in this situation. I know how good they are, we’re very fortunate.”

The fans, his teammates, LePage all held their breath, willing it to go in, to make that extra rotation and drop gracefully into the net for a buzzer beater that would mean nothing to the score but everything to the team. It rolled out. The Crystal Lake South team came off the bench and embraced their teammate anyway. Keeche might not have gotten his basket, but he got his moment.

BOYS BASKETBALL: WOODSTOCK AT HUNTLEY (CANCELED)

Game called after water pipe bursts By CHRIS CASEY ccasey@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – After a 35-minute halftime delay of Friday’s Fox Valley Conference boys basketball crossover game between Huntley and Woodstock after a water pipe burst, the game was canceled. The fire alarms sounded, forcing all in attendance to vacate the

school. After allowing everyone back inside, school officials announced that “due to the school not having a water source,” the game was canceled. With both teams starting regional play next week, and the outcome of this game not having any affect on seeding in the regional, the game will not be completed. The Red Raiders led 20-15 at

McHENRY – Friday’s game against McHenry was the first for Hampshire since coach Bob Barnett announced he was retiring at the end of the season. If Friday’s game was any indication, the Whip-Purs look to be a completely refocused team heading into regional play. Hampshire hit some key 3-pointers and played excellent defense as the Whip-Purs defeated McHenry, 53-32, in the fifth-place Fox Valley Conference crossover boys basketball game played at McHenry High School. After starting the season 132, Hampshire (15-11) got away from the things it did well earlier in the season and won just one of their next 10 games. Against McHenry, that changed. “We hit some 3-pointers early and that really seemed to loosen us up and also allowed us to do some things inside,” Barnett said. “Our energy seems to be back and we defended really well tonight. The team seems like they know the end is near and they don’t want it to end.” Both McHenry (6-22) and Hampshire struggled early from the field. Hampshire was able to grab the lead, thanks to the fact that three of their four first quarter baskets were 3-pointers. McHenry was able to stay close thanks to rebounding. McHenry held a 22-12 rebounding advantage in the first half and only trailed by four points after the first quarter. The second quarter was back and forth most of the way until Hampshire got a real momentum lift at the first half buzzer when Luke Tuttle hit a three-point basket to put Hampshire up by eight at halftime. The Whip-Purs worked the ball inside in the second half and extended the lead to double digits and McHenry had no answer. Hampshire was led by Matt Bridges with 16 points. “It felt so good to get back on track tonight and our intensity was high right from the beginning,” Bridges said. “Hopefully the way we played tonight can carry into regionals next week.” Friday was a perfect snapshot of the McHenry season. The Warriors defended well enough, but just couldn’t get shot to fall. McHenry was just 1 for 17 from 3 and shot 22 percent overall. The Warriors were led by Corey Lersch with 10 points. “We had some good looks tonight but the shots didn’t fall,” McHenry coach Tim Paddock said. “We defended well enough and had a lot of second chance looks but the shots just wouldn’t fall.”

halftime. Connor Boesch led Huntley with eight points, while Zach Cullum had five for the Blue Streaks. Huntley (10-18) will host next week’s Class 4A regional, and play Belvidere North (8-17) at 6 p.m. Monday, while Woodstock (15-9) will take on Marian Central (13-15) in the Class 3A Marengo Regional at 7 p.m. Wednesday.

Rose’s season is not over

Hawks acquire veteran Timonen

Bulls hopeful he can return before playoffs By MARK POTASH mpotash@suntimes.com CHICAGO – The Bulls are feeling good about this one. Considering how problematic previous Derrick Rose comebacks have been, you couldn’t blame them for soft-selling his latest: “He’ll be back when he’s back.” Instead, general manager Gar Forman Derrick Rose was downright optimistic after Rose underwent surgery on his torn right meniscus Friday, setting a timetable of four to six weeks for his return, anticipating a full recovery and adding that “he should be back to where he was.” That’s a far cry from the fears that Rose was one step from NBA oblivion when it was announced he suffered a re-tear of his right meniscus, the same injury that ended his 2013-14 season after 10 games. Instead of repairing the tear, Dr. Brian Cole performed a meniscectomy, in which the damaged part of the meniscus is removed. Forman emphasized that it was an arthroscopic procedure and that Rose had “full weight-bearing” afterward and walked out of the hospital under his own power. “There’s the old saying that surgery’s minor as long as it’s on someone else,” Forman said. “But in this case, in comparison to what Derrick’s had to go through the last several years, this surgery really was minor. We anticipate a full return to activity.

Bulls forward Taj Gibson passes against the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first half Friday night at the United Center. The Bulls won, 96-89.

Short-handed Bulls top Timberwolves CHICAGO – The good news that Derrick Rose is expected to return this season figured to buoy the Bulls’ spirit, especially after they appeared to be in a funk in a loss to the Hornets on Wednesday night. Maybe it did, maybe it didn’t. Against the last-place Minnesota Timberwolves playing without newcomer Kevin Garnett, the Bulls

didn’t need a quality effort to win 96-89 at the United Center. The Bulls played without Pau Gasol, who left the morning shootaround with an illness. And Taj Gibson left in the first quarter with a left ankle injury. But even with Rose, Gasol and Gibson, they had more than enough to win. Well, enough to win. – Mark Potash

“This is an injury that’s fairly common with NBA players or pro athletes. A majority or most are able to come back to competition to play, and it really doesn’t have any effect on their career. In a small percentage of cases, maybe late in their career, they’ll complain of some pain in regards to arthritis. But at this point, that shouldn’t be any concern at all.” Forman said Rose will begin his rehab Saturday at the

Bulls’ practice facility. If he’s back in four weeks, the Bulls would have nine games left in the regular season. A sixweek absence would take him through the end of the regular season. Forman, who had not talked to Rose after the surgery when he met with reporters Friday morning, indicated Rose was on board with the timetable of four to six weeks. “I talked to Derrick a couple of times earlier this week,”

Jacobs’ Cory Boeckh attempts a 3-pointer during Friday night’s game against Prairie Ridge at Jacobs High School in Algonquin. The Golden Eagles won, 71-61.

PR’s Otto scores game-high 25 points • GOLDEN EAGLES Continued from page C1 Orange had only two points over the opening eight minutes but the do-it-all guard really got going in the second and third quarters, where he combined for 12 of his points. Although Jacobs led at halftime 34-23, and then 55-39 at the end of the third quarter, the Wolves never looked quite out of it. Behind junior guard Payton Otto, who put up a gamehigh 21 points, Prairie Ridge got to within eight points of Jacobs in the fourth quarter. “They had a little spurt,” Orange said. “They just threw in shots. You just have to tip your hat to ’em, because they did what they did.” To make matters tougher, Orange was called for his fourth foul early in the fourth quarter. And Prairie Ridge stuck with its 1-2-2 zone press that forced plenty of turnovers

Michael Smart for Shaw Media

Jacobs’ Mike Canady crashes into Prairie Ridge defender John Berg while trying to shoot during Friday night’s game. and turned the game into a track meet at times. “It was a little tricky,” Orange said of the zone press. “We kind of held onto the ball too long, and they got their hands on the ball. So we had to clean that up a little bit.”

Perhaps outmanned, Prairie Ridge coach Corky Card said he liked the pace of plays – just not the 71 points his team gave up, the most they had allowed in regulation all season long. “We made the decision about midway through the year that we’re not a grind-out team,” Card said. “We have a nice team. We can shoot, not great shooters. Dribblers, not great handlers. But we have some depth. So we decided we need to get the ball up and down a little bit.” Next up for both teams is the state playoffs. Jacobs is seeded second in the Class 4A Bartlett regional, where its next game will be Wednesday, scheduled to face the winner of No. 3 Bartlett and No. 6 Streamwood. For Prairie Ridge, the third seed in 4A Huntley Regional, it meets No. 6 Crystal Lake Central in the first round Monday.

Forman said, “and obviously he was disappointed at being injured, but I think he’s in a really good place, and I think he’s ready to attack this rehab the next several weeks.” Of course, regardless of how aggressively Rose “attacks” the rehab, the X-factor in any Rose rehab is whether he’s mentally ready to play in an NBA game. But Forman was confident this return would not be the mental hurdle that the anterior cruciate ligament was. He even said “there would be some disappointment” if Rose were unable to return after six weeks, given Cole’s prognosis. “Obviously, it’s a process. But it’s a much different process than what he’s had to go through before,” Forman said. “We anticipate that he’ll attack and he’ll be back playing before the season’s over.” It remains to be seen how this plays out – virtually nothing about Rose’s injuries, even before the first ACL, has been standard. But the Bulls clearly were feeling good about this latest episode. “It’s good news. We’re cautiously optimistic,” coach Tom Thibodeau said. “We’ve just got to be patient and give him the time he needs to get through the rehab – this time it’s much shorter. He can get back to starting activity right away, so that’s a big plus for us.” The Bulls needed the good news. The news of Rose’s latest injury appeared to affect their performance in a 98-86 loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday at the United Center. That Rose is expected to return this season could be a boost. “I hope so,” teammate Joakim Noah said. “There’s a chance he comes back – that’s exciting. We know for where we need to get to, we need Derrick back. There’s no question about it.”

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com TAMPA, Fla. – Kimmo Timonen hasn’t payed a game yet this season. He’s planning to retire after the season. But now he suddenly is in a playoff race, looking for the Stanley Cup that’s always eluded him. The Blackhawks acquired the soon-to-be 40-year-old defenseman from the Kimmo Philadelphia Timonene Flyers on Friday night in exchange for a second-round draft pick this year and a conditional fourthround draft pick next season. Timonen has been out all season because of blood clots in his right leg and both lungs. But he’s been working toward a return, and likely will be on the ice Monday when the Hawks host the Carolina Hurricanes. “You can skate and practice, you can do so much,” Timonen said Friday night. “But playing the game is when you get your timing back and your instincts are taking over. You can’t simulate that in practice. It’s going to take a few games. I don’t have exhibition games to ease myself into it. I have to be good to go right away. I feel really good right now and I’m sure I can help the team for sure when I get into top shape. Probably won’t be right away, but I’m sure I can help the team.” Timonen signed a oneyear deal worth $2 million (plus incentives) over the summer, and said he planned to retire with the Flyers after the season. But with Philadelphia fading from the Eastern Conference playoff race, his priorities shifted.

Lightning shut out Hawks TAMPA, Fla. (AP) – Ben Bishop made 28 saves for his second shutout, Steven Stamkos scored two goals and the Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Blackhawks, 4-0, Friday night. Brian Boyle and Ryan Callahan also scored for the Lightning, who returned home after a 3-2 road trip against Western Conference teams. Stamkos has 11 goals and 17 points in nine games against the Hawks. Hawks backup goalie Scott Darling stopped 25 shots. “Last summer, when I got sick and I was back in Finland in a hospital bed, they said you have to wait six months and see what happens,” he said. “If that small chance [of returning] happened, the only thing I’m missing from my hockey career is a Stanley Cup. That was the only goal if I returned to hockey. It wasn’t money, it wasn’t anything else.” With Johnny Oduya injured, Michal Rozsival struggling and Trevor van Riemsdyk still working his way back from a fractured kneecap, Timonen could play a significant role right away. Hawks coach Joel Quenneville and general manager Stan Bowman both wanted Timonen’s skill, experience and leadership badly, and both were happy with the deal. Flyers GM Ron Hextall called Timonen a “special player.” “We’ve been working on this one for a while,” Bowman said. “He was the defenseman we really wanted. Setting aside that he hasn’t played, once we get him up to speed, he’s a great player. He’s been an elite defenseman for a lot of years.”

Team: sales up 50 percent from last year By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com GLENDALE, Ariz. – The feel-good buzz at the White Sox fan convention carried over to the box office with strong demand on the first day of individual-game ticket sales Friday, the club said. The Sox have sold 50 percent more tickets in 2015 than at this time last season, according to a team-issued statement, adding “the most popular tickets purchased by fans are Opening Day, May 23 (Konerko jersey retirement and replica statue giveaway), July 18 (World Series reunion) and all three White Sox-Cubs games in August.” Attendance has declined in each year since 2006, but

The Browns have agreed to terms with veteran quarterback Josh McCown on a contract. McCown, who went 1-10 as Tampa Bay’s starter last season, reached agreement with Cleveland on Friday. The 35-year-old had also been in contract talks with the Buffalo Bills.

Earl Lloyd was a player and coach, an NBA champion and later a Hall of Famer. Within the basketball world, he’s something much bigger. He was a pioneer.

FIVE-DAY PLANNER

NASCAR SPRINT CUP

Car stolen before race for the season-opening Daytona 500 with Reed Sorenson behind the wheel. He finished 32nd in the race. Sorenson switched to a different team for the Atlanta race, prompting Team XTREME to hire Kvapil, a one-time Sprint Cup regular who had only five starts in the top NASCAR series last season and was looking to make his first appearance of 2015. “I was excited to be part of a small team and trying to build up with them,” Kvapil said. “Personally, it’s a big setback.” A trailer with the red race car inside was hitched to a black 2004 Ford F-350 pickup truck Travis Kvapil parked outside a hotel in Morrow, Georgia, about 15 miles south of Atlanta and a short drive from the speedway, police said. Surveillance video showed the truck and trailer being driven out John Cohen of the parking lot around 5:30 a.m., Morrow police Detective Sgt. Larry Oglesby said. The team, which had been working 18-hour days to get the car ready for Atlanta, was scheduled to leave for the track at 5:45 a.m., and a crewman had been outside a few minutes before the theft, smoking a cigarette. “I’ve been doing this since 1979,” crew chief Peter Sospenzo said. “I’ve probably been to 1,200 hotels and 1,200 race tracks. Never once has this happened. It’s crazy. But there’s a first for everything, I guess.” The trailer is plain white with no markings. The person who stole it likely didn’t realize the race car was inside, and might have thought it was lawn equipment or something else he easily could sell,

By PAUL NEWBERRY The Associated Press HAMPTON, Ga. – When Travis Kvapil got the call Friday, he figured someone on his race team was playing a joke. “They said there was trouble with the car,” Kvapil said. “I thought we could figure it out when we got in the garage area. They’re like, ‘No, the car is gone.’ ” The No. 44 NASCAR Sprint Cup car owned by small-budget Team XTREME was stolen from a hotel parking lot near Atlanta Motor Speedway, police said, forcing Kvapil to withdraw from this weekend’s race before he even got a chance to qualify. The $250,000 race car still was missing late in the afternoon, and police were hoping the public could assist in the search. The owner of one NASCAR sponsor offered a pit pass to every race the rest of the year to anyone who helped located the high-powered Chevrolet. “It’s insane,” said team owner John Cohen, who didn’t have a backup car to run in Atlanta. For a few hours, the team held out hope of the car being found in time for qualifying Friday, but it was forced to withdraw when it missed NASCAR’s mandatory inspection. The Sprint Cup race is Sunday. “It’s really bizarre,” Kvapil said. “You can handle maybe getting a flat tire, or getting caught up in a wreck, or a blown engine, something that actually happens on the race track. Or you don’t qualify, because you don’t have enough speed. But to not even get a chance ... that’s pretty disheartening.” It was an especially tough blow for Team XTREME, which doesn’t have the funding of major multicar operations such as Hendrick Motorsports and Joe Gibbs Racing. Despite a wreck in qualifying, the team managed to make the field

Oglesby said. “Hopefully, they’ll open this one up and say, ‘Oh no, this isn’t what we thought,’ and will drop it off at the nearest vacant lot or apartment complex or somewhere,” he said. Normally, the car would have been transported using the team’s hauler, an 18-wheel tractor trailer. But, with a winter storm moving through the Southeast this week, Cohen sent the hauler to Atlanta earlier in the week. Back at the shop, the team still was working on the car, a different version than the one that ran under restrictor-plate rules in Daytona. It was sent separately to Atlanta late Thursday after the storm cleared out, accompanied by Sospenzo and six other crew members. “My whole plan backfired,” said Cohen, who has been running a Sprint Cup car since 2012 and is one of the few blacks involved in NASCAR’s top series. In addition to the race car, the trailer also contained a spare engine valued at $100,000 and racing equipment valued at $17,500, according to a police report. Even so, Cohen vowed the team would return for next weekend’s race in Las Vegas. Kvapil said the thieves probably won’t be able to cash in on their surprising haul. “There’s really no use for it out in the general public,” he said. “I hope they realize that and will leave it somewhere where the police can find it.” The theft gave NASCAR star Jeff Gordon a new perspective. When his crew chief was complaining about the way the No. 24 car was running before practice, Gordon told him, “It would be a lot worse. Our car could’ve been stolen.” Then Gordon turned serous, saying: “I hate it for Travis and those guys. I hope they get to the bottom of it.”

Pregnant teen needs support Prevention the best medicine and guidance, not rejection for Raynaud’s phenomenon Dear Abby: My best friend from school is pregnant. Her baby’s father is practically nonexistent, and she has no other friends besides me and one other person. I am the only one so far who knows about her pregnancy. She hasn’t told her dad and her grandparents because she’s scared they’ll kick her out. She has nowhere to go. My parents have told me to cut her off. What should I do? – Unsure In Texas Dear Unsure: Because your friend is afraid to tell her family, she should talk to a counselor at school. The family will have to know soon because her pregnancy will become obvious, and she will need prenatal care so her baby will be born healthy. I don’t agree with your parents that you should “cut her off.” She needs friends right now – and you can learn much from watching this scenario from the sidelines. Stress to her how important it is that she graduates from high school, because if she keeps her baby, she will need to be able to support it. Your state department of social services also should be contacted for guidance.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Dear Abby: I am engaged to a man, “Keith,” who has numerous female “friends.” I suspect they are something more. Recently, during my second pregnancy, one of his “friends” decided to follow me, but would never say a word to me. When I tell Keith I am uncomfortable with these women, he says I have “no right to dictate his personal life.” I want to know if I’m wrong for not wanting to have to deal with these “friends,” even if they were his friends before we got together. – Adrift In Los Angeles Dear Adrift: Listen to your gut. If one of Keith’s “friends” was stalking you, your feelings about her are probably accurate. You already have had at least one child with your fiancé. Recognize that Keith won’t change much if you manage to drag him to the altar. If he is telling you now your feelings don’t matter

(“you have no right to dictate his personal life”), I hope you realize this is how his attitude will be forever. Personally, I wouldn’t wish a life with someone this self-absorbed on anyone I cared about. But if more of the same is what you are prepared to settle for, then all anyone can do is wish you luck. Dear Abby: Two friends decide to take a road trip to Miami. One lives in New York and the other in North Carolina. They agree to use the New Yorker’s car and split the cost of the gas. The New Yorker says the amount to be split is the cost of the fuel from New York to Miami and back to New York. The North Carolinian says the cost to be split should be from North Carolina to Miami and back to North Carolina. Which is fair? – Road Weary Dear Road Weary: Really? If you two can’t agree on your own, I have a suggestion for you: Cancel the trip. If you do, it might save the friendship. • Write Dear Abby at www.

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

Dear Dr. K: When I’m out in the cold, my fingers quickly go from cold to numb and often turn whitish. This goes beyond normal feelings of cold. What could be going on? Dear Reader: What you’re describing – cold, white (sometimes even bluish), numb fingers – are the hallmarks of an illness called Raynaud’s phenomenon. When I first learned about Raynaud’s in medical school, I called it the “almost patriotic” illness. That’s because its colors are white, blue and red, in that order: • White. When people with Raynaud’s go out into cold weather, the first thing that happens is small arteries in the fingers go into spasm. This reduces or cuts off the flow of oxygen-rich blood to the fingers. Without a steady supply of blood circulating through them, the affected fingers turn white. Raynaud’s also can affect the toes, nose, lips, ears, nipples and other body parts. • Blue. When the spasm ends, the arteries reopen, allowing blood to flow again. Oxygen leaves the blood rapidly, to supply your fingers and toes with the oxygen they’ve been missing. Blood depleted of oxygen turns blue or purple,

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff and so do your fingers and toes. They also may throb or tingle. • Red. After your fingers and toes get the oxygen they need, less oxygen leaves the blood. So it, and your fingers and toes, turn pink or red. Prevention is the best medicine for Raynaud’s. Try to stay out of the cold when possible. When you have to go out, bundle up. Keeping the whole body warm can help prevent blood vessels in your skin from constricting. In some people, the response to cold air can be extreme. They may get Raynaud’s when reaching into a refrigerator or freezer. Air conditioning can do it for others. Wearing gloves before reaching into the refrigerator or freezer may be necessary. You can cut an attack short by running your hands under warm (not hot) water. Or wave your arms in circles to get the blood flowing. Reusable gel warming packets are another option. For people who get Ray-

naud’s attacks when they feel stressed, relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, usually help. Another treatment option is thermal biofeedback in which you “think” your fingers warm. This technique uses sensors placed on the fingers that feed temperature information to a video screen. You learn techniques to try to warm your fingers, aided by feedback from the sensors. Some people may need to take a medication to prevent or control attacks. Drugs that widen blood vessels, such as calcium-channel blockers, often are effective. Finally, certain medications can trigger Raynaud’s. Culprits include beta blockers, some migraine medications and ADHD medications. Your doctor might be able to substitute other medications or change the dose. Some overthe-counter cold medications also constrict blood vessels. It’s no fun to have Raynaud’s. But you can prevent it, or shorten the episodes, with proper planning. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

Grandmother who earned her diploma says it’s never too late Dr. Wallace: I’m writing to the fellow who quit school 20 years ago, when he was 16, and wanted to know if he was too old to get his GED (general equivalency diploma). You were 100 percent correct when you told him one is never too old to earn a diploma. I’m living proof. My father died when I was 15, so I had to quit high school to help support my mother, two younger sisters and a

‘TWEEN 12 & 20 Dr. Robert Wallace younger brother. I was a good student and planned to return to get my diploma, but I got married when I was 17 and had three children by the time I was 20. I eventually raised seven happy, healthy children.

Yet through it all, I was bothered that I had never earned my diploma. After my dear husband passed away last year, I needed something to occupy my mind, so I enrolled in an evening program for adults who wanted to earn a high school diploma. Six months ago, I received that diploma. My seven children and 18 grandchildren were in the audience at the graduation ceremony. I was the oldest

diploma recipient ever in the school district. Yesterday was my 83rd birthday. As you said, you’re never too old to learn if you have the will to succeed and the time to do it. – Granny, New York Granny: You made my day! Thanks for your inspirational message – and a belated congratulations. Dr. Wallace: Last week I was physically abused by my boyfriend, who is 18. I’m 16,

and ever since then I have had terrible nightmares. My parents know about the abuse by my ex-boyfriend and that I have the nightmares. What we don’t know is if the nightmares will eventually go away by themselves, or if I should get professional counseling. What do you think we should do? –

Nameless, Houston Nameless: It’s imperative that you receive counseling from a professional thera-

It also is imperative that you and your parents contact local authorities to report this major crime. Your ex-boyfriend should be brought to justice. • Write to Dr. Wallace at rwallace@galesburg.net.

“FOCUS”

“THE LAZARUS EFFECT”

STARRING: Will Smith, Margot Rob-

STARRING: Mark Duplass, Olivia

bie, Rodrigo Santoro PLOT: In the midst of veteran con man Nicky’s latest scheme, a woman from his past – now an accomplished femme fatale – shows up and throws his plans for a loop. RATED: R for language, some sexual content and brief violence RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 41 minutes VERDICT: If the mark of a good con artist is that he or she makes you think you know exactly what’s going on – when of course you haven’t a clue – that’s also the mark of a good con-artist movie, isn’t it? To make you feel like you totally get what’s about to happen – “Oh yeah, I’ve seen this in tons of movies,” you think – and then, boom. That’s not what happens at all. See, you lost your focus for a second. “It’s about distraction,” explains Nicky, the con artist played by Will Smith in “Focus,” the consistently entertaining new film by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (“Crazy, Stupid, Love.”). And that’s what the filmmakers do to us, too – they distract us more than once by making us think we’re watching a predictable, even silly story. We’re lured more than once into feeling smarter than the movie – until we’re not. Damn! How did we miss that? Of course, deft plot twists aren’t enough. A con-artist movie has to make you find something sympathetic about the artist himself. And here, the film centers on a romance, so we need to be able to invest in that as well. Luckily, Smith and relative newcomer Margot Robbie (“The Wolf of Wall Street”) generate believable heat together while also appealing to us individually, and so we care what happens to them – even as we keep changing our minds as to which one we should care about most. But romance is a tricky thing when you’re a lifelong trickster. The person you MAYBE love, and who MAYBE loves you. Unless you’re playing them, or they’re playing you. It’s best to stop wondering who’s doing what to whom and just, er, focus on watching Smith, wily and vulnerable at the same time, match wits (and hearts?) with Robbie, who makes a strong case here for more leading-lady roles. It would be fun to watch these two go at it again. Maybe a sequel called “Re-focus”? – The Associated Press

Wilde, Evan Peters, Sarah Bolger, Donald Glover PLOT: A group of medical students discover a way to bring dead patients back to life. RATED: PG-13 for intense sequences of horror violence, terror and some sexual references RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 23 minutes VERDICT: If someone tried to put together a Reviving Dead People film festival, there wouldn’t be enough films in the genre to actually call it a festival. There’s “Frankenstein” (the feat was accomplished via electricity), “Pet Sematary” (overnight burial in sacred Indian ground) and “Flatliners” (everyone was simply resuscitated, without much explanation). Hold on, we’ve got a new entry. In “The Lazarus Effect,” a team of scientists (OK, two scientists, two assistants and a videographer) are working under false pretenses at a California college to figure out how to bring the dead back to life. They’re not crazy enough to deal with humans, so they experiment on dead pigs or dead dogs. Their method: inject some Lazarus serum into the temporal lobe of the brain, which will pump up the hallucinatory effect of the body’s natural supply of DMT, thereby reigniting the spark of life. I just re-read that last sentence, and it still sounds as silly as it did (with a bit more psycho-babble terminology thrown in) while I was watching the movie. This is a ridiculous science fictionhorror film that introduces people with good intentions who don’t know what they’re getting into, who then lose control of the situation, and don’t know how to get out of what they got into. The budget for the film is so low, everything bad happens when there are short circuits in the lab and the lights go out. There are some pretty good actors here, but they’re dealing with shoddy directing and a dumb script, a script that has the gall to leave things in sequel mode. Never gonna happen. – More Content Now

“STILL ALICE” STARRING: Julianne Moore, Alec Baldwin, Kristen Stewart

PLOT: Alice Howland, happily married

with three grown children, is a renowned linguistics professor who starts to forget words. When she receives a devastating diagnosis, Alice and her family find their bonds tested. RATED: PG-13 for mature thematic material and brief language, including a sexual reference TIME: 1 hour, 41 minutes VERDICT: Is a performance bigger than a movie? In the case of the Alzheimer’s drama “Still Alice,” it’s not only true, it’s inexcusable. As a woman afflicted with the disease, Oscar winner Julianne Moore is superb at conveying the fight, the determination and the strength to survive in the face of impending doom. But writing-directing partners Richard Glatzer and Wash Westmoreland – working from a novel by Waltham’s Lisa Genova – consistently undermine her with the pandering, melodramatic tripe typical of a disease-of-the-week movie. It’s not enough that Moore’s Dr. Alice Howland is handed a fatal diagnosis only days after turning 50, the filmmakers needlessly up the ante by making her type of Alzheimer’s hereditary, meaning her three children (Kristen Stewart, Kate Bosworth, Hunter Parrish) are at high risk. Worse, Bosworth’s Anna is undergoing fertility treatments, and if she’s lucky enough to conceive, the babies might carry the Alzheimer’s gene. Got all that? Good, because there’s more. Stewart’s Lydia is a struggling actress with limited talent (art imitating life?) who is continually getting into spats with Anna over her attitude toward Mom’s illness. Then there’s Lydia’s man trouble and the high cost of living in L.A. And don’t forget Dad (a pompous Alec Baldwin), who is mulling a job offer from the Mayo in Minnesota. Should he take it and place Alice in an even stranger environment than her native New York has become to her? Does anyone really care? It’s all too much for one 100-minute movie. It also robs attention from what we’re all here to see: Moore’s devastating portrayal of a strong, smart successful woman literally losing her mind one mutant brain

cell at a time. When Alice is the focus, your heart breaks, but when the script inexplicably draws attention away from her to develop the relatively petty problems of her husband and children, the air goes completely out of it.

to you; their wealth and status is not only a distraction, it’s a reason to seriously dislike this preening, pretentious clan. Wouldn’t a real, struggling middle-class family be more relatable? You can’t convince me otherwise.

anything than the cold, treacly schlock they let pass for real feelings. Their film pales even further when held up to the superior Alzheimer’s flick “Glen Campbell: I’ll Be Me,” which elicits more compassion and tears than “Still Alice” could ever hope. Moore’s performance, with all its subtleties and nuances, demands recognition, even if it’s the only thing about “Alice” worth remembering.

WILLIS LAMENTS END TO ACTION-THRILLER ‘WAKE’

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Saturday, February 28, 2015 • Section C • Page 10

LOS ANGELES – Bruce Willis is not saying “Yippie-kiyay” about the cancellation of his latest film. A spokesman for Willis told The Associated Press Friday that production of “Wake” was suddenly halted this week when financing fell through, and the actor is concerned that crew members who joined him “in good faith” are left jobless. Publicist Paul Bloch said the company responsible for financing the film didn’t deliver the promised funds, so production of the action-thriller was indefinitely suspended. Shooting began earlier this month in Cleveland. “Wake” also was to star Ben Kingsley and Ellen Burstyn.

Harrison Ford to reprise role in ‘Blade Runner’ sequel

Cosby asks judge to dismiss 3 accusers’ defamation suit BOSTON – Bill Cosby’s lawyers asked a federal judge Friday to throw out a defamation lawsuit filed by three women accusing the comedian of decades-old sexual offenses. The women, all of whom have stepped forward in recent years, say Cosby’s representatives publicly branded them as liars while trying to defend Cosby’s innocence. But Cosby’s lawyers say the actor was merely acting in self-defense as his character was under attack. “The law does not require that one stand idly by while he is publicly attacked,” the lawyers argue in their 38-page filing. “Instead the law entitles an individual who is accused of serious wrongdoing to rebut the allegations without facing defamation claims.” The lawyers say Cosby denies all of the allegations of sexual misconduct. Cosby, who famously starred as Dr. Cliff Huxtable on “The Cosby Show” from 1984 to 1992, hasn’t been charged with any crime. At least 15 women have stepped forward in recent years to level various assault accusations. Tamara Green, a California lawyer, says Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted her in her Los Angeles-area apartment in the early 1970s. Therese Serignese says Cosby drugged and raped her in a dressing room after a show in Las Vegas around 1976. And Linda Traitz alleges he tried to drug her and then groped her on a Southern California beach in about 1970.

LOS ANGELES – Harrison Ford is set to reprise his role as Rick Deckard in a sequel to the dystopian, neo-noir “Blade Runner,” more than 31 years after the film first premiered. Ridley Scott directed the 1982 movie, which was adapted from the Philip K. Dick novel “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.” Alcon Entertainment announced Ford’s role Thursday and said Scott will serve as an executive producer on the sequel. Production on the film will begin in the summer of 2016. Hampton Fancher, who co-wrote the original, and Michael Green have written a script based on an idea from Fancher and Scott. The story will take place several decades after the events at the conclusion of the 1982 film. A director has not yet been confirmed for the project.

Miss America Organization president is stepping down ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. – The president of the Miss America Organization is stepping down after nearly two years at the helm. Sharon Pearce has served the group for the past nine years. She became president in 2013. The organization announced Friday that Sam Haskell, its chairman and CEO, has been promoted to executive chairman and will assume Pearce’s duties. “Sharon has provided a great service to our organization,” Haskell said. “Her support of me, the staff and thousands of young women coast to coast will never be forgotten.” Pearce told The Associated Press that she wants to spend more time with her family.

Biopic of martial arts legend Bruce Lee springs into action

New York exhibits mark centennial of Frank Sinatra’s birth

LOS ANGELES – Legendary martial arts star Bruce Lee is getting the official biopic treatment, daughter Shannon Lee announced Friday. Despite his untimely death in 1973 at age 32, Bruce Lee helped to create and popularize a genre that still endures and influences today with roles in films including “Fist of Fury,” “Way of the Dragon,” and “Enter the Dragon.” Bruce Lee Entertainment will produce the project in collaboration with Lawrence Grey (“Hope Springs”) and Janet Yang (“The Joy Luck Club”). In the statement, Shannon Lee said that the film will explore her father’s writings, art and philosophies in addition to his martial arts stardom. Neither a star nor a director has been set for the film.

NEW YORK – A couple of New York exhibits are paying homage to the centennial of Frank Sinatra’s birth by displaying rare photographs and mementos, many of them from the family archive. “Sinatra: An American Icon” opens Wednesday at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center. It will feature recordings, clothing, art and other personal items. Several new paintings of Sinatra by Peter Max are part of the exhibition. The show will travel to the GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles after it closes Sept. 4. Select photographs from the exhibition also will be on view during the International Festival of Arts & Ideas in June in New Haven, Connecticut.
