Officials want to roll back jury pay

McHENRY COUNTY DIGS OUT AFTER SNOWSTORM DROPS MORE THAN 12 INCHES

Bill would allow counties to opt out of new fee schedule By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com Proposed legislation could free Illinois county boards from the burden of a new law upping most jury pay to $50 a day, but only by putting the decision in their hands. Senate Bill 59 allows county boards to significantly lower the new mandate of $25 for the first day and $50 each additional day if they determine they cannot pay it. The bill does not set any criteria that a county government has to meet in order to cite financial hardship. It was filed last week by Peter Austin Sen. John Mulroe, McHenry D-Chicago, the law- County adminmaker who filed the istrator original bill setting the higher rates. On the Web McHenry County officials and staff You can read complained the new Senate Bill 59 law, signed by forat www.ilga. mer Gov. Pat Quinn gov. in his last weeks of office, would become yet another expensive and unfunded mandate handed down by state government. County Administrator Peter Austin said the new pay scale will cost county government an extra $225,000 a year when it takes effect June 1. McHenry County jurors presently get $5 a day or $12.50 if they are seated and hearing testimony, and all jurors get mileage. Austin said the law’s compromise that lowers all civil juries from 12 jurors to six, not just for damage claims of less than $50,000, does not offset the increased cost. “[The bill] had a principal motive to make civil juries six members. The component of increased juror pay was, I think, a sort of carrot for some members of the General Assembly to get them on board. But it misrepresented that [lowering] the number of jurors would offset the increase in juror fees and compensation. That certainly isn’t the case,” Austin said Monday morning. Mulroe’s bill, if passed in its present form, would allow counties to opt out of the new fee schedule, but sets

Pedestrians cross north Jefferson Street at East Church Street on Monday morning as crews work to clear piles of snow in Woodstock.

Towns work around the clock to clear snow By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com Before the crowd of 150 people could venture out to the annual prognostication by Woodstock Willie on Monday, crews had to clear out the snow from the Square. With more than 12 inches of snow falling on parts of McHenry County from late Saturday through Sunday and into Monday, crews worked around the clock to keep roads clear. In Woodstock, snow removed from the central business district, which includes the Square, was hauled away to the city-owned Woodstock Water Works parking lot, as no one uses the outdoor water park at this time of year. Woodstock Public Works Director Paul Ruscko said if that parking lot fills up, crews will bring snow to other city park parking lots. Ruscko said Woodstock doesn’t have the luxury of melting snow like larger cities. Snow in the downtown area is moved into piles, moved by front loaders into large gravel haulers and taken away.

According to the National Weather Service, some areas in McHenry County were buried under more than a foot of snow from the weekend’s storm. The large amount of snow did take a little longer for crews to remove from the central business area, Ruscko said. Normally, workers start removing snow about 11 p.m. and are done by 4 or 5 a.m. For this storm, they started at 10 p.m. Sunday, but weren’t done until 9 or 10 a.m. Monday, Ruscko said.

“We do those operations in the wee hours in the morning, or late night hours when most go to bed,” Ruscko said. Crews, such as in Cary and McHenry among others, had to work throughout Sunday to keep roads clear, and some missed the

Rapper denies allegation that he threatened Crystal Lake cop By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The attorney representing Gerard Golston says his client was merely expressing himself in a rap video posted to Facebook that authorities say threatened a police officer. Crystal Lake-based criminal defense attorney George Kililis filed an appearance to represent 25-yearold Golston of Lake in the Hills on charges alleging Golston threatened

the officer who once issued him a seat belt ticket. Threatening a public official is a felony and, if convicted, Golston faces a possible prison term of two to five years. He pleaded not guilty at a McHenry County Court appearance Monday. Crystal Lake police said they found the video while wading through public profiles on Facebook. In the video, Golston produced a rap song authorities say was aimed

at Crystal Lake police officer Dimitri Boulhains. In slang for shooting a 9 mm weapon, Golston says: “I’m gonna get the nine” and “I’m gonna pop you,” and “Officer Dimitri, where the [expletive] you at?” Gerard Kililis noted Golston Golston’s words echoed sentiments expressed by those in the black com-

munity around the country. “We all seem to forget that no matter how ugly [the statements] the other guy is saying, how much it upsets or offends us, in the end, we all have the right to say it,” Kililis said. “What Mr. Golston was doing was an expression of political frustration. “I honestly don’t think it was a threat against Dimitri.” According to case law, the limits of free speech protection stop at threatening speech, which will have to be a determination made in

Golston’s case. Golston has been in custody since his Jan. 12 arrest, unable to post $35,000 bond. On Feb. 9, Kililis will argue for a lower bond. Golston made the same request in January but it was denied because McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather said he couldn’t establish residence. Golston’s parents are expected to testify that he can live with them in Lake in the Hills, and they will bring him back and forth to court, Kililis said.

Some Democrats eyeing run at comptroller Illinois state Sen. Daniel Biss appears to be the first Democrat to actively float his name for the 2016 special election for state comptroller. Biss, an Evanston Democrat, is known as a policy wonk around the statehouse, but he’s also a prodigious fundraiser, ending the fourth-quarter reporting period with $721,000 in the bank. The special election law was passed by the General Assembly in early January – just weeks after the death of Republican Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka. Former Gov. Pat Quinn signed it into law on his way out the door. If the new law is upheld by the courts (which seems likely, but not 100 percent certain), the state’s appointed Republican Comptroller Leslie Munger will have to stand for election in a presidential year. Since the days of President Bill Clinton, Republicans have been at a distinct disadvantage during presidential election years. No Republican presidential candidate has won this state since 1988, when George H.W. Bush defeated Michael Dukakis, 51-49. Back then, Illinois was considered a “bellwether” state for presidential campaigns. No longer. Anyway, Biss would first have to survive the Democratic primary. And

LOTTERY

VIEWS Rich Miller although no other candidates have yet floated their names, it’s expected that we will see some interest (there’s even some talk that Quinn might be interested). Biss pushed hard for state worker pension reform when he was in the House and again after he moved to the Senate. That hasn’t endeared him to labor unions, although I’m told he’s been attempting to reach out to the unions to try and smooth things over. Biss ran unopposed last year, so the Illinois AFL-CIO took no position on his nonexistent campaign. Meanwhile, state Sen. Napoleon Harris (D-Flossmoor) has been eyeing a move up the political ladder almost ever since he won the 2012 primary election to replace the retiring incumbent Sen. James Meeks. Harris expressed strong interest in running for the U.S. House seat vacated by disgraced incumbent Jesse Jackson Jr., but wound up bowing out. Now, Harris is looking at a possible U.S. Senate bid. Harris is a former NFL player. Many of his former teammates have

plenty of extra cash, which gives Harris a natural fundraising base. Harris also is a successful businessman in his own right. He owns a pizza restaurant chain and paid a hefty sum to make his pies the official White Sox pizza at U.S. Cellular Field last year. Harris is the first state legislator to express a strong interest in the race. All of the other possible candidates mentioned so far are members of the U.S. House. One of those U.S. representatives expressing interest in running for Senate is Robin Kelly, who ended up winning that 2013 special election to replace Congressman Jackson (with Harris’ eventual endorsement). If she and Harris end up running, that would mean two African-Americans from the south suburbs would be competing in the Democratic primary. Kelly would have to give up her House seat to run, but Harris just started a four-year term. Republican incumbent U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk has a moderate (for Washington, D.C.) voting record. Kirk also will have strong support – financial and otherwise – from the majority Senate Republicans if he runs, which appears likely at this moment. And Kirk will benefit from a newly rebuilt party infrastructure, courtesy of Bruce Rauner’s guberna-

torial campaign, and from Rauner’s super-wealthy contributor network. Kirk, himself, also has built an impressive fundraising network of staunch Israel supporters. Even so, no Republican U.S. Senate candidate has won Illinois during a presidential year since Charles Percy was re-elected in 1968. President Richard Nixon absolutely stomped Democrat George McGovern that year here by 19 points. Even so, Democrats won back the governor’s office. The last Republican U.S. Senator from Illinois, Peter Fitzgerald, declined to run in the 2004 election, when George W. Bush lost the state by 10 points. And the average Democratic presidential winning margin in Illinois since 1992 is more than 16 points. Yes, Barack Obama pumped up that average, but they all won by double digits. Even so, it’s not an impossible task for Kirk. He actually could run to the left of Harris on some social issues if the legislator manages to survive the primary. Harris voted “present” on the gay marriage bill, for instance. Kirk favors the “liberal” side of that position.

Police: Zion man gave fatal dose of heroin to 21-year-old from Algonquin By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Police have charged a Zion man with providing a fatal dose of heroin to a 21-year-old Algonquin woman.

McHENRY – The McHenry City Council reviewed its five-year capital improvement program Monday, examining a list of more than $13.8 million in projects in which to choose from for fiscal 2015-16. The capital improvement program, which includes a list of about $96.5 million in projects over a five-year span, allows council members to pick and choose proposals based on urgency and availability of funds. Some of the projects proposed for 2015-16 include the big-ticket proposal of a new recreational facility; buying software and equipment to stream City Council meetings online; improving parks; and investing $6.9 million in road repairs. Funding for the projects comes from a mix of general fund revenue, bonds and state and federal grants. City Administrator Derik Morefield told council members it is important to remember the plan is not a budget document, but a guide showing improvements the city can pursue far into the future. But Alderman Andy Glab was critical of the scope of the five-year plan and said while he understands the need for a wish list, he did not think including so many projects officials know will not be funded in the next five years is prudent. “It’s nice to have a wish list, but it’s also nice to have a more realistic program to where we know within the next five years we are going to be able to do this,” Glab said. Other aldermen said listing those projects keeps longer-term ideas on the radar for future councils. But some wanted more specific examples of the streets that

CARY – Cary was ranked third in the state by NerdWallet as one of the best cities for young families. The analysis looked at towns with at least 10,000 people and considered factors such as home affordability, prosperity and growth, quality of education and family friendliness. In its write-up about Cary, NerdWallet said the village “is positioning itself as a haven for young families with its recent push to implement a 20-year economic plan. As well, Cary could become a magnet for families if plans go forward to develop and make the area around the Metra station more walkable.” NerdWallet also said Cary offers outdoor recreation such as the Hollows Conservation Area, and has community events such as Cary Main Street Fest. “They didn’t call us; they did their own research,” Village President Mark Kownick said. “That really puts us on the map as trying to be as progressive as possible in catering to young families.” To view the report, visit www.nerdwallet.com/blog/ cities/economics/best-cities-for-young-families-in-illinois-2015.

ecoleman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – A new restaurant is moving to Crystal Lake, and another Crystal Lake classic is opening a new space devoted to retail and carryout. The Nancy’s Pizza location in Lake in the Hills will be moving to a slightly larger space at 1295 Randall Road, between Ackman Road and McHenry

Avenue, sometime this spring, said Bill Gluck, the restaurant’s owner. That is dependent on whether there are additional delays, he said, but he’s hoping to start construction within the next month. The work will take about eight weeks, he said. The storefront is already built but hasn’t been occupied yet, Planning and Economic Development Manager James

Richter said. Gluck will have to remodel the inside and turn it into a restaurant. The restaurant will be one of 27 franchise locations in the Chicago metropolitan area. Like other Nancy’s Pizza spots, the 1,700-square-foot restaurant will offer its signature stuffed pizza. Another business – a scaleddown, carryout version of Benedict’s La Strata with a front retail section stocked with unusual food items and gift items – is set to open around the third week of February, said its owner, John Pilafas, who also owns

Benedict’s Eggs & More in East Dundee. “The whole retail part is new to me, so I’m leaving it up to my wife,” said Pilafas, who hopes to squeeze in a bit of vacation before opening the newest location. A Taste of Benedict’s will

offer a variety of coffee and pastries in the morning and some of its popular lunch items, including salads and sandwiches, later in the day, he said. The food will all be prepared and packaged at Benedict’s La Strata, which is across the street from the new store at 39 N. Williams St. The goal is for A Taste of Benedict’s to take some of the pressure off the lunchtime carryout rush at La Strata, he said. The location previously was the resale shop Fiona’s Finds and J.

Council members are already taking steps to get the new recreation center project started as they agreed to open bidding for the project to the nine companies that met the requirements in the prequalification process.

Construction costs for the 18,200-square-foot facility are expected to be about $5 million. The facility would include free weights, aerobic machines, multipurpose rooms for rent, and rooms for fitness and dancing classes. It also would be designed to accommodate future expansions, including a gymnasium with two high school-sized basketball courts and an elevated track as well as an outdoor aquatic center.

Official: ‘This was a slower rate of snow, over a longer time’ • SNOW Continued from page A1 Super Bowl. “We have a lot of dedicated guys,” Cary Public Works Director Erik Morimoto said. “They did a little sacrifice during the Super Bowl. “The way the snow fell, compared to the blizzard [of 2011] this was a slower rate of snow, over a longer time,” Morimoto said. “It helped us keep up with it.” But all that snow has to go somewhere, especially the snow removed from downtown areas. In McHenry, crews in the middle of the night will clean up the downtown area. They usually start at 2 a.m. when “no parking” rules go into effect, Public Works Director Jon Schmitt said. Crews will push snow into piles in its downtown areas, and then later haul it away to an open field off Charles Miller Road by the south wastewater treatment plant, Schmitt said. “Last year was a good test, with all the snow we had,” Schmitt said. “It held all of our snow from the year.” But the snowstorm didn’t mean work for everyone. With schools closed Monday because of the snowfall, it allowed youngsters a lot of time to take advantage of the white fluffy stuff on the ground. Aimee Clements of McHenry, along with her sister Heather Muse of Wonder Lake, and sister-in-law Courtney Clements of Crystal Lake, brought their children and nieces and nephews to Veterans Acres Park in Crystal Lake to go sledding.

members repeatedly sang the praises of the city of Woodstock for its efforts to clear the streets overnight to allow the event to continue. After the “seer of all seers” signaled an extended winter, the crowd dispersed to local restaurants and businesses to enjoy the last day of a weeklong celebration. Bellairs said his interest in Groundhog Day stretches back more than a decade, since he was an extra in the movie that has made Wood-

“At least the sun is shining because it is chilly,” Aimee Clements said. Aimee Clements’ daughter, Amaya Clements, 11, was excited she didn’t have school Monday. “You get to have fun,” Amaya said. “You get to sled, snowball fight, ski, tubing, snowboarding.”

Sisters Alexis and Hailey Harney of Crystal Lake also went sledding at Veteran Acres. The girls go in tandem down the hill on their plastic sled with Alexis in the front. “It’s awesome,” Alexis said. “You get snow in your face.” But there is a downside of sledding.

“I hate the walk up,” Alexis said. The sisters’ mother, Debra Harney, enjoyed being at the sledding hill with her daughters. “I like spending time with them,” Debra Harney said. “I love doing extra things with them. They’re only little once.”

• OFFICIALS Continued from page A1 minimum rates. For counties the size of McHenry, a class that includes every county except for Cook with more than 25,000 residents, the bill would set the rates back to what McHenry County now pays its jurors. The bill would allow the McHenry County Board to set its daily rate back to $5 a day, plus 10 cents a mile for mileage

reimbursement. A county that opts out of the higher rates must pay mileage – a compromise measure in the original law eliminated the mileage requirement in exchange for the higher daily wage. Counties with fewer than 25,000 residents under the proposed opt-out will have to pay a minimum of $4 a day, while Cook County would have to pay at least $10 a day. A Dec. 8 letter from County Board Chairman Joe Gottemoller, R-Crystal Lake, urging

Quinn to veto the increase, estimated the county would have had to pay at least 400 percent more in the previous year under the new rates. Smaller civil juries would have little impact, he wrote, because only 16 of the 70 cases that went to trial last year were civil cases. The County Board Law and Justice Committee is taking a wait-and-see attitude as to where the proposed reform goes, Chairwoman Sue Draffkorn, R-Wonder Lake,

said. Members of her seven-member committee that met Monday are split, she said – some favor paying jurors more if the increases are phased in over several years, while others maintain that jury duty, while inconvenient and low-paying, is a civic duty. The County Board in December 2011 approved a savings measure that decreased jury pay and mileage in exchange for releasing unpicked jurors after two days.

stock the iconic Groundhog Day site it’s become. The holiday, he said, comes at a time when not much else is happening to bring a community together. “It’s in the middle of winter, the holidays are over, so what else are you going to do?” Bellairs said. “It’s just something fun, and most of our events are free. If there is a cost, the money raised goes to civic organizations and charities. It’s just a fun thing to do.”

LAKE IN THE HILLS

New restaurant planned at former Applebee’s location By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – A gastropub is in the works at the former Applebee’s on Randall Road. The Woods Creek Tavern is scheduled to open in the spring, said managing partner Dave Abraham. Abraham, who lives in Hoffman Estates, said the gastropub will have higher quality food and higher quality beer along with a large selection of craft beers. “We want to create to a neighborhood environment where people can come in and relax, have some good food, good beer [in] a cool atmosphere,” Abraham said.

Interior construction, along with a new kitchen, is expected to begin in a couple of weeks, Abraham said. Work also will take place on the exterior. Abraham, who has been in the restaurant business for four years, also is a managing partner of a restaurant in Schaumburg. He started looking at the 5,000-square-foot former Applebee’s during the summer of 2013, when the property went on the market. Abraham won’t disclose the amount of the investment. He did say he wanted to locate the business on Randall Road, but he didn’t make a move on the property until the decision on whether to go with a continuous flow intersec-

tion at Randall and Algonquin roads was resolved. Ultimately, County Board members opted to go with a conventional intersection as part of a potential Randall Road widening project. “That seems to be cleared up,” Abraham said. About 50 people will be employed in full- and part-time jobs at the restaurant as mostly servers and cooks, Abraham said. Gino DeVivo, Lake in the Hills economic development coordinator, in a recent report to Village Board members discussed the project. He said the new restaurant is estimated to have sale volumes more than double the former Applebee’s.

DeKALB

NIU students cut loose with campuswide snowball fight By KATIE DAHLSTROM kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Hitting your classmates with snowballs beats hitting the books, some Northern Illinois University students learned Monday. More than 100 NIU students flocked to Central Park on the NIU campus after classes were canceled to engage in a snowball war that junior Michael Payne organized. “Right now, I’d probably be in class,” Payne said while students screamed and pelted each other with snowballs behind him. “This is much better than class.” NIU canceled Monday classes Sunday, prompting Payne, 20, to start a Facebook event for a snowball fight. Students with the last names in the first half of the alphabet wore red while the rest of the students wore black. The groups started with a chant while standing a few dozen yards apart before they charged with snowballs at the ready. Senior Walker Steinke, 23, was hurling snowballs from a pile made before the fight started. He said his only method was anarchy, a welcome change from his everyday class schedule. “We get to do something that isn’t just school,” he said. “We actually get to enjoy this weather in a way that’s a little more fun.”

Mia McMahon, a sophomore at NIU, throws a snowball Monday during a campuswide snowball fight in DeKalb. Some students came with snowball tactics. Payne preferred to use snowballs that were pre-made, but others chose to hoard large chunks of snow so they could break them over other people. One student came with a small bucket to make snowball pyramids before the fight started. Senior Lauren Robak, 22, thought tackling people was the most effective method. Her friend Casey Heuer, a 24-yearold graduate student, also thought so, tackling Robak before flinging snow at her. For their friend Marissa Murphy, a 20-year-old junior, sticking with a team was the key. She said there were more people to team up with than she expected. “It’s really cool to see peo-

ple from all over campus come out here, like people that I don’t normally see,” Murphy said. “So I’m glad they set this up, and I’m glad I came.” The fight did some good other than helping students enjoy the 16 inches of snow the National Weather Service reported fell on DeKalb over the weekend. Students donated the $41 collected from participants to TAILS Humane Society, Payne reported. He didn’t know how many people would venture into the cold for the snowball fight, but he was happy to see that so many did. “I’ve never done anything like this,” Payne said. “Snowball fights when I was a kid were like 10 people. This is cool for sure.”

SKETCH VIEW

News literacy remains skill In 1938, Orson Welles staged a radio reenactment of author H.G. Wells’ “War of the Worlds,” and it caused a nationwide panic. The show was scripted to seem as though an actual broadcast was interrupted with news bulletins that grew more and more urgent as Martians landed on a New Jersey farm and began taking over the Eastern Seaboard, killing New Yorkers with toxic gas. Although it was stated the program was a work of fiction – and there are For the record many clues in the broadcast that it is a dramatizaKnowing how to spot the diftion – many in the ference between a legitimate public believed news-gathering organization the world was and a “satirical” website is a under attack by critical skill. invaders from Mars. News literacy was important then, and it is even more important now. Some might assume people somehow were not as media-savvy in 1938 as they are in 2015, and people are much less likely to fall for a fake media story today than they were then. But before “War of the Worlds” there were 1890s newspaper reports of “mystery airships” that readers were supposed to understand were simply made up. The amount of media available to us in 2015 makes it even harder to avoid being snookered into mistaking made-up news for the real thing. Some outlets, such as The Onion, make no attempt to conceal their stories and videos are satire. Nonetheless, people, including journalists at respected media outlets, mistake The Onion’s reporting for real news on a regular basis. Other fake “news” sites, such as “World News Daily Report” and “The Daily Currant,” are more insidious because they’re not funny. As “War of the Worlds” seemed in 1938, they’re sensational, but also plausible. If you use social media services, such as Facebook, you’re probably run across links to these “satirical” stories, shared by friends who think they’re real news. But no, loggers did not accidentally cut down the world’s oldest tree, and Congressional Republicans haven’t passed a resolution declaring “racism is over.” These website operators want to fool people into thinking their “reporting” is real. Their unfunny-but-sensational headlines entice people to visit their websites, which is all that really interests them. When trying to decide whether a news report you’ve stumbled upon is credible, consider questions such as: Have I ever heard of this news organization before? If you haven’t, there might be a reason. Is it clear where the organization is based and what community it serves? A news organization that doesn’t serve a community isn’t accountable – a bad sign. Is a reporter identified either with a byline or by appearing in a news video? Can he or she be contacted? Professional journalists typically attach their name to their work along with contact information. Are there any other news outlets reporting on this story? In today’s 24-hour online news cycle, it’s rare for an interesting, sensational story to remain an “exclusive” for very long. Knowing how to spot the difference between a legitimate news-gathering organization and a “satirical” website is a critical skill. Although people aren’t likely to rush into the streets in a panic if they can’t tell the difference, at the least they will be misinformed and might look kind of silly sharing phony “news” with their friends.

IT’S YOUR WRITE McNamara must go To the Editor: Cook County has nothing on the McHenry County Republican Party’s political machine. County residents should learn it doesn’t pay to vote for someone just because they have an “R” after his/her name. Bill Prim’s election opponent warned of the sordid background of Prim’s newly handpicked deputy chief of patrol, Matt McNamara. It should be noted McNamara began working security only after leaving the Des Plaines Police Department. We might never learn the reason for that because it relates to “personnel matters.” Sheriff Prim’s judgment is badly skewed. This is an outrage perpetrated on county residents. In 2001 in Iowa, McNamara was convicted of assault; the result of a bar fight where he choked a man. In a second fight, he is said to have punched two women in the face and dragged another woman by her hair across a parking lot. The arrest reports, which I have read, make it clear this man cannot control his rage when drinking. In Arizona, in 2012, McNamara was arrested for DUI and said to have blown twice the legal limit. In an attempt to avoid arrest, he claimed to be a Chicago police officer, which he was not. It’s an insult to our honest, hard-

working patrol deputies to put McNamara in charge. Expect to see a rise in resignations. Will they be replaced by applicants chosen by McNamara? Sheriff Prim, surely this appointment must be payback for McNamara’s efforts made during your election campaign. To show your honest intentions, McNamara must go. Judith Vandenboom Cary

Rauner’s Medicaid proposal To the Editor: Gov. Bruce Rauner once again is demonstrating his lack of empathy for the working poor. He would like to balance the budget on the backs of the most vulnerable in our state. His plan is to cut Medicaid spending, blaming the health care needs of poor children, the aged and disabled as the one major reason for the budget crisis in Illinois. According to the Congressional Budget Office, 65 percent of Medicaid recipients are the working poor, almost half are children. Raising the minimum wage to allow them the ability to move off the Medicaid program is not part of the governor’s agenda. He would rather have thousands of people working minimum wage jobs so he and his corporate

Rauner issues medical marijuana licenses The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner awarded licenses Monday to dozens of medical marijuana businesses across the state after conducting an internal review that found flaws in the never-completed license award process under former Gov. Pat Quinn. Letters to 18 winning cultivation centers and 52 retail shops were sent out Monday afternoon, Rauner spokesman Lance Trover told The Associated Press. In eight districts, Rauner delayed the licenses for further review, leaving those jurisdictions awaiting word on which companies will be able to join what could be a $36 mil-

lion industry in 2016. “I believe the right companies were rewarded,” said Tim McGraw, CEO of ACE Revolution Cannabis, which won licenses to build marijuana-growing facilities in the Illinois cities of Delavan and Barry. “We’re excited to get to work to bring safe medicine to the patients of Illinois.” Letters sent to the cultivation center winners from the Department of Agriculture inform them of a number of conditions. Businesses will need to pay a license fee, for example, and they’ll be subject to ongoing oversight during the startup process. The license awards follow many weeks of uncertainty af-

ter the Quinn administration failed to meet its own deadline of issuing the permits by the end of 2014. The Democrat announced the morning of Rauner’s inauguration that he would leave the issue for the Republican to decide. The AssoBruce Rauner ciated Press reported last week, based on documents obtained in a Freedom of Information Act request, that Quinn’s office was scrambling to decide whether to issue licenses on the eve of him leaving office. The Rauner administration

launched its review of the process almost immediately. Medical patients had been pushing Quinn to issue the licenses. Rauner’s action Monday means that Illinois’ first legal marijuana crop could be harvested this year. It’s not immediately clear how long it will be before patients will have access to the first legal cannabis. State Rep. Lou Lang, the Skokie Democrat who sponsored the legislation that created the pilot program, praised Rauner for issuing the licenses. He said although the Republican governor inherited a program with several problems and has indicated he is not a big fan of medical cannabis, his office managed to careful-

ly review the process and issue licenses with only three weeks of delay. “Gov. Rauner deserves a lot of credit here,” Lang said. “It’s great for patients.” Rauner’s general counsel, Jason Barclay, released a statement Monday listing problems in the Quinn process that had created “a risk of substantial and costly litigation” to the state. Barclay said that the teams reviewing the applications imposed arbitrary cut-offs in scores “that were not expressly contemplated or provided by law that effectively eliminated certain applicants from consideration.” He said the state agencies

Lawmakers target ‘golden parachutes’ CHICAGO – Republican lawmakers are targeting so-called “golden parachutes” after College of DuPage trustees approved a $762,000 buyout package for the school’s president. At a news conference Monday, several legislators said they’re proposing bills to protect taxpayers from future large payouts. Rep. Jeanne Ives of Wheaton said residents “are demanding action.” One bill would cap the size of severance payouts. Another would make severance agreements subject to the state’s open records law so the public could review them. Rep. Ron Sandack is sponsoring a measure that would reduce the state money a community college receives if its trustees take similar action.

Nearly 600 arrested in solicitation sting CHICAGO – A sting operation involving law enforcement agencies in 17 states resulted in the arrests of nearly 600 men on charges of soliciting sex. Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart’s office said Monday the operation began Jan. 15 and ended Sunday. Dart launched the operation in 2011 and since then there have been more than 2,900 alleged sex solicitors who have been arrested. During this latest operation another 23 suspects were arrested and charged with pimping, sex trafficking or promoting prostitution. Many suspects were arrested after answering online classified ads. Dart says part of the reason for the program is to highlight the role the websites play in prostitution.

CTU president: Illness gives renewed outlook CHICAGO – Chicago Teachers Union president Karen Lewis said she has a renewed focus on improving education after serious illness forced her to drop out of the running for Chicago mayor. Lewis spoke Monday before the City Club of Chicago. The outspoken union leader was seen as Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s toughest challenger until she was diagnosed with a brain tumor last year. She said she’s continued chemotherapy treatments. She appeared noticeably thinner, which she joked about before the crowd of civic and business leaders. Lewis said CTU has a contract to negotiate this year and she’s pushing for an elected school board.

That character and fitness review resulted in several applicants being disqualified “without clear procedures and standards for disqualification and without offering the prospective applicants an opportunity to respond to the information that was relied upon to make the disqualification decisions.” Finally, the Rauner administration faulted Quinn for deciding “to award no more than one cultivation center license to applicants who were the high point scorers in more than one district.”

State subsidy for program runs dry The ASSOCIATED PRESS

Illinois Senate President John Cullerton, D-Chicago, speaks with reporters Jan. 13 after meeting with Gov. Bruce Rauner at the State Capitol in Springfield. Lawmakers assembling in Springfield for what promises to be an intense session under a new Republican governor say they are in react mode, waiting for Rauner to lay out his proposed solutions to the state’s financial problems before laying out theirs.

State Democrats content to wait for Rauner proposals The ASSOCIATED PRESS SPRINGFIELD – In the inevitable chess game unfolding in the state Capitol this year over how to fix the state’s woeful budget, Democratic lawmakers say their first move is watching new Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner make his. House and Senate Democrats will seek to protect their own interests and constituencies in eventual negotiations with Rauner. While he speaks of the need for steep budget cuts, they’ll likely seek to protect social services, state workers and Medicaid recipients, and many were ready last spring to support an extension of the income tax increase that expired in January. But they’re keeping their playbook close to the vest as Rauner prepares to lay out his priorities beginning with

Wednesday’s State of the State speech. They talk of deferring to the governor, but experts said they also are content to let him assume responsibility for a healthy share of the financial pain to come. “I think until we hear a State of the State, until we see him advance his budget, it’s going to be difficult for us to have something to play off of,” said House Assistant Majority Lou Lang, a Skokie Democrat. In the meantime, Lang said, “you’re going to have some Democrats talking about the needs in the social service community, the needs in education, needing a capital [construction] bill, various things in the coming weeks. But certainly this process is really going to have to start with the governor.” As they begin a new legislative session, Democratic lead-

ers acknowledge that addressing the state’s potential $5.7 billion budget hole by July is by far the most pressing issue. Last spring, the Democrats passed a $35.7 billion budget that didn’t allocate enough money to cover state expenses, anticipating that lawmakers could return after the election to take up a proposal to extend an income tax increase. But House Speaker Michael Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton, both Chicago Democrats, put off voting on taxes, saying they were heeding Rauner’s calls to not address “substantive” issues until his January inauguration. Madigan is no stranger to tense budget negotiations after controlling the House for 30 years. Steve Brown, his spokesman, said it was “impossible” to comment on Democrats’ plans, because Rauner

had not yet offered a specific proposal. He said the House would have to look hard at any Rauner proposals to raise revenues, such as a temporary restoration of the increase tax bump, including “a detailed plan on how the money would be spent.” Rauner said during the campaign he opposed extending the income tax increase, but later said he would be open to incrementally rolling it back. Democrats say if Rauner does not support a tax increase, it’s incumbent upon him to propose an alternative. “We had a campaign where he [Rauner] seemed to imply that he wanted to lower taxes and spend more money on education,” said Senate President John Cullerton. “That seems to be contradictory. We’re eagerly waiting on his proposed solutions.”

CHICAGO – Illinois officials are warning parents and providers that the state has run out of money to pay for a subsidized day care program. Illinois’ Department of Human Services is short roughly $300 million to fund the program through June 30. Department officials, in a letter last week, warned that payment delays are expected to “get progressively longer” and services may be cut. “Please try to adjust your bills to accommodate the new schedule,” the letter to parents and providers read, adding “we know you have financial obligations that will be difficult to honor because of the payment delays. You may show this notice to your creditors so they are aware that the payment from the state is delayed and will be delayed for the rest of the fiscal year. The problem comes from the $35.7 billion budget lawmakers passed last spring. The plan didn’t allocate enough money to pay for expenses while a debate on whether to extend the state’s income tax increase was pushed off. Heeding new Gov. Bruce Rauner’s request not to address any “substantive” issues until his inauguration in January, lawmakers didn’t address the issue in their fall veto session, and the increase rolled back Jan. 1. A roughly $2 billion revenue gap is expected by the end of the fiscal year in June. While lawmakers say they believe money can be reallocated from other areas of the budget, no immediate solution is yet in sight. The issue is expected to be an early test for Rauner. He’s pledged to keep “essential” government services functioning but hasn’t provided specifics.

Obama’s record budget: Tax the rich, help middle class The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Promising to help America’s middle class, President Barack Obama on Monday sent Congress a record $4 trillion budget that would hammer corporate profits overseas and raise taxes on the wealthy while boosting tax credits for families and the working poor. Obama’s budget also would steer hundreds of billions of dollars to the nation’s crumbling infrastructure of roads and bridges, help provide two years of free community college and reverse the across-theboard, automatic budget cuts

that have slammed the Pentagon and nearly every government department. In the face of certain opposition from Republicans, an optimistic Obama hailed a “breakthrough year for America” of new jobs, lower unemployment and shrinking deficits after the great recession of 2008, and he called for moving past years of “mindless austerity.” The blueprint for the 2016 budget year that begins Oct. 1 represents a 6.4 percent increase over estimated spending this year, projecting that the deficit will decline to $474 billion. However, Obama’s plan ignores the new balance of power

in Washington, with Republicans running both the House and Senate. The GOP found plenty to criticize in his proposed tax hikes that would total about $1.5 trillion. The GOP cited the nation’s $18 trillion debt and assailed what they call Obama’s taxand-spend policies for failing to address the spiraling growth of benefit programs such as Social Security and Medicare. “Today President Obama laid out a plan for more taxes, more spending, and more of the Washington gridlock that has failed middle class families,” said House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. “This plan never

balances – ever.” Republicans aren’t offering specifics but will respond this spring with their own plan, a balanced-budget outline promising to get rid of “Obamacare,” ease the burdens of the national debt on future generations, curb the explosive growth of expensive benefit programs and reform a loophole-cluttered tax code in hopes of promoting economic growth. While Obama’s plan was rejected out of hand on budget day, proposals to ease automatic cuts and boost transportation funding are likely to return later in the year and require extensive negotiation.

“These proposals are practical, not partisan,” Obama said of his overall plans. “They’ll help working families feel more secure with paychecks that go further, help American workers upgrade their skills so they can compete for higher-paying jobs, and help create the conditions for our businesses to keep generating good new jobs for our workers to fill.” Some people would pay more. Many wealthy Americans would be able to take tax deductions at the 28 percent rate only if incomes were taxed at 39.6 percent, and some would also see an increase in their maximum capital gains rate.

Obama mulls sending lethal aid to Ukraine Troops fight to avoid being surrounded by rebels made notable strides in clawing territory away from the government in Kiev. Their main offensive is now directed at Debaltseve – a government-held railway junction once populated by 25,000 people that lies between the rebel-held cities of Luhansk and Donetsk. Almost 2,000 residents have fled in the last few days alone. Rebel forces have mounted multiple assaults on government positions in Debaltseve but all were repelled, a spokesman for Ukrainian military operations in the east, Andriy Lysenko, said Monday. “The units that have arrived in support of our troops in Debaltseve are counterattacking and denying the enemy the opportunity to complete the en-

By PETER LEONARD The Associated Press DEBALTSEVE, Ukraine – As Ukrainian troops fought Monday to defend a strategic railway hub, Russian-backed separatists pledged to boost the size of their force and Washington pondered whether to expand its assistance to Ukraine to include lethal aid.

Since the unrest in eastern Ukraine surged anew in early January, the separatists have

circlement,” he said. Separatist fighters burst through Ukrainian lines last week in the village of Vuhlehirsk on the road west of Debaltseve, getting access to a ridge overlooking the highway running north from the town. On Monday, Associated Press reporters saw Ukrainian tanks shooting from open fields at the tree line on that ridge. Minutes later, the tanks rolled back onto the highway, leaving a heavy trail of mud in their wake, and taking up new field positions a few hundred yards away. In a coordinated defensive maneuver, Ukrainian forces fired barrages from Grad multiple-rocket launchers toward the same area.

BRIEFS Death toll from GM ignition switches rises

Hikers drag stricken friend to safety off a mountain

DETROIT – At least 51 families will get payments from General Motors due to fatal crashes caused by faulty small-car ignition switches, and that number is almost certain to rise. The deadline to file claims with compensation expert Kenneth Feinberg was Saturday. Camille Biros, deputy administrator of the compensation plan, says 77 injured people also will get payments. Biros said those numbers will rise as more claims are decided. The plan received a flurry of claims in the week before the deadline, taking the total to 4,180. She would not estimate how many claims would be granted. GM was aware of faulty ignition switches on 2.6 million Chevrolet Cobalts and other small cars for more than a decade, but it didn’t recall them until early last year.

A Connecticut woman who was dragged down a trail on New Hampshire’s Mount Washington by her friends after losing consciousness during a hike says she is grateful the episode had a happy ending. Twenty-eight-year-old Monoswita Saha of Trumbull was out of the hospital within a matter of hours. Saha said Monday the five friends from Connecticut was well prepared for the Saturday hike. On their way back down the mountain, Saha began drifting in and out of consciousness. One of the friends dialed 911, and the operator told them to stay put and wait for help. But the hikers began to worry not just about Saha but also about their own safety. They brought Saha down themselves. Saha declined to discuss what caused her to fall ill.

BEARS ANALYSIS

Thin crop of QBs in free agency

By MIKE DeFABO mdefabo@shawmedia.com

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com With a new general manager and coach, and plenty of questions about which players are returning, the Bears are a difficult organization to gauge when it comes to adding free agents, and how much the team will be willing to spend. We know GM Ryan Pace believes in building through the draft, but you can count on Jay Cutler some freeagent additions when it all begins March 10. We’ll go position-by-position breaking down where the Bears stand, who their options are and who they could target next month. Today, we analyze the quarterback position.

Current Bears situation: Jay Cutler is under contract, and is due $10 million of his guaranteed money on the third day of the league year, March 12. Several indications point to Cutler staying for at least one more year with the new regime, but getting competition for him or a different backup should be on the Bears’ to-do list this offseason. Last year’s sixth-rounder, David Fales, is also on the team, for now. His future is dependent upon what Pace, coach John Fox and offensive coordinator Adam Gase think of his skill set, and whether they want to find another young quarterback to develop. Dream on: One of the reasons to keep Cutler is the free-agent batch of quarterbacks isn’t going to wow anyone. There is no star of the class, and that’s a trend at the position. When a team has the quarterback it likes, it will do whatever it can to prevent him from getting to the open market. Of the quarterbacks available, a survey

He knew Dixon had been a special talent since fourth grade when she crossed up kids twice her age in the Little Dribblers program. She went on to break almost every scoring record in Johnsburg High School history, including points in a single game (41), career points (2,146), single-season points (795) and career 3-pointers (276). Still, the recruiting process is a reality check, a time when many high school stars fade into obscurity. Toussaint looked at Dixon’s 5-foot-8 frame and wondered whether she had the size and athleticism to compete against major Division I talent. When he talked with AAU coaches in the area, many agreed she would struggle to get playing time at top programs. “I just don’t know. Is this going to be too far from home?” Toussaint remembers saying to Dixon, a white lie told in an attempt to try to persuade her to settle for a smaller school and a safer future. What about Northern Illinois University? It’s a nice campus. Close to home. And you’ll get more playing time in the Mid-American Conference.

Johnsburg graduate Melissa Dixon hit nine 3-pointers in a 102-99 Iowa win Thursday at Northwestern. Dixon will return to the area Sunday when the Hawkeyes travel to play Wisconsin.

GIRLS BASKETBALL: PRAIRIE RIDGE 56, CRYSTAL LAKE CENTRAL 33

Wolves dominate after first quarter Prairie Ridge ends first half on 19-0 run in FVC Fox victory By ALEX KANTECKI akantecki@shawmedia.com

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Crystal Lake Central’s Kathleen Penza (left) is guarded by Prairie Ridge’s Melissa Bear in the second quarter Monday at Central. Prairie Ridge won, 56-33.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Less than 30 seconds into Monday night’s Fox Valley Conference Fox Division girls basketball game against Prairie Ridge, Crystal Lake Central was down one starter. Third-year varsity player and junior guard Maddy Lerum sprained her left ankle on the games’ opening possession, making an already thin Tigers roster even thinner. Central trailed by only six points

after the first quarter and was able to stick with the bigger-bodied Wolves early, but Prairie Ridge pulled away convincingly with a 19-point second quarter en route to a 56-33 FVC Fox win at Tigers Fieldhouse. The Wolves (17-9 overall, 9-1 FVC Fox) moved into sole possession of first place in the division with the win, a half-game ahead of Hampshire with two games remaining. Prairie Ridge travels to Hampshire on Friday in a game that could decide the division winner. “We just had to pick it up a little bit after a slow first [quarter],” Wolves coach Rob Baker said. “We started to concentrate on getting the ball inside to [Kirsten] Voel-Pel, and we picked up our intensity on defense. We knew if we went to the boards hard, we’d be fine.”

THE DAILY

Prairie Ridge outrebounded the Tigers, 22-10, in the first half, and stopped settling for the outside shot after going 4 for 15 in the first. The result was 19 consecutive points after Central’s Molly Steffen (teamhigh 16 points) started the second quarter with a long 2-point field goal. The Wolves looked to Voel-Pel on the inside, with Mikaela McNally and Melissa Bear (five assists) both feeding her the ball in the post. VoelPel (16 points, nine rebounds) converted a three-point play on her second bucket from Bear as the Wolves ended the first half on a 19-0 run. Central (2-21, 0-8) went 1 of 10 from the field and was outrebounded, 13-3, in the second quarter.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL: AP POLL

Kentucky back to unanimous No. 1

Inside Boys Basketball ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

By JOHN MARSHALL

NORTHWEST HERALD POWER RANKINGS 1. Jacobs (15-5): The Golden Eagles have had one close game during their current seven-game winning streak, a 47-43 win at Cary-Grove last week. Jacobs’ average margin of victory in that streak is 20.9 points a game. 2. Marengo (18-4): The Indians lost at Genoa-Kingston, 52-47, on Friday and are tied for first place in the BNC East, but by virtue of two wins over Richmond-Burton, they stick at No. 2 this week. 3. Richmond-Burton (14-4): R-B has won four in a row after its loss to Marengo and is now tied for first place with the Indians in the BNC East race. 4. Prairie Ridge (9-10): Welcome to the top five, Wolves. Prairie Ridge is 5-2 in January and tied atop the Fox Valley Conference Fox Division standings with Grayslake North. 5. Crystal Lake South (13-7): The Gators beat Dundee-Crown for their third consecutive win Saturday. Those came after a stretch of four losses in five games. NOTEWORTHY Putting it together: Prairie Ridge was 4-8 in the 2014 portion of the schedule but has found another gear since January. The Wolves (9-10 overall, 5-2 FVC Fox) are 5-2 since January and tied with Grayslake North for first in the division. They won their past three games, all division contests, over Hampshire, Crystal Lake Central and Grayslake Central. “Our effort level has been very good,” Wolves coach Corky Card said. “When you play as hard as you can for as long as you can, you can make adjustments better. On defense, we’ve been able to turn people over a lot. “On offense, the kids are making the extra pass. They’ve been very unselfish with moving the ball.” Payton Otto has been the Wolves’ top scoring threat, but Card likes the balance they have shown, often getting several players scoring five to eight points a game. “We played a good early schedule, with Hononegah, Geneva and Larkin,” Card said. “That helps you if you can keep your head about you.” Down a man: Marengo has had 6-6 junior Ben Volkening available on a limited basis the past two weeks. Volkening is battling some back soreness from an old injury. Indians coach Nate Wright said Volkening suffered a broken vertebra as a freshman. “It’s caused some muscle issues, and sometimes he struggles to run,” Wright said. Wright is taking it easy with Volkening now in hopes he will be ready for the end of the regular season and postseason. Elite company: Cary-Grove senior guard Jason Gregoire scored 25 points in Saturday’s 45-35 victory over Huntley to become the second Trojans boys player in school history to top 1,000 points. Two late free throws left Gregoire at 1,001. The career scoring leader is Steve Sherwood, a 6-6 center who graduated in 1980 and scored 1,090 points. Sherwood averaged 19 points and 15 rebounds a game his senior season and played at NCAA Division I Evansville. Gregoire has six regular-season games remaining before playing in the Class 4A C-G Regional. THIS WEEK’S TOP GAMES Grayslake North at Prairie Ridge 7 p.m. Tuesday The two teams are tied at 5-2 for the lead in the FVC Fox Division. Prairie Ridge has won three consecutive games and was 5-2 in January. Richmond-Burton at Johnsburg 3 p.m. Saturday R-B shares the lead in the BNC East with Marengo and is trying to defend its division title.

Senior holds Iowa records for 3s • DIXON

COLLEGE BASKETBALL: TOP 25 ROUNDUP

Continued from page C1 “I kept thinking to myself, do you go to a mid-major where you can play a lot?” Toussaint said. “Or do you go to a big-time school where maybe you don’t play as much?” Dixon took the risk and signed with Iowa. “Honestly, I came in not expecting a whole lot,” Dixon said. “I was thankful for anything I could get.” Four years later, the undersized guard from the small town has proved she not only belongs in the Big Ten but is among the conference’s all-time elite shooters. She broke into the 1,000-point club as a junior and holds the Hawkeyes’ record for 3-pointers in a game (10) and career 3-pointers (293 and counting). Heck, she played well enough to earn her own bobblehead doll night Jan. 14 against Northwestern. “When we saw her the summer coming into her senior year, we knew she would be wonderful in our offense, because it really works for 3-point shooting,” Iowa coach Lisa Bluder said. “We thought she would really be able to open up our inside and the middle for us.” Dixon is tied for fourth in Big Ten history for career 3-pointers. Thursday, when the Hawkeyes host Ohio State, she needs two 3-pointers to jump into sole possession of third place. And Sunday, she’ll return to the area for one of her final times to play in front of a home-ish crowd at 2 p.m. at Wisconsin. “She just proves everyone wrong,” Toussaint said. “When she gets her mind set on something, she’s going to do it.” ••• Dixon’s path to college basketball started in her backyard, under the shade of the overhanging trees on the family’s full-length basketball court. She took on opponents like she would one day take on the challenge of playing in the Big Ten, competing against her brothers Mike, 23, and Steve, 19, their friends or anybody who would play her. “She always wanted to get into the game. She wasn’t afraid of playing anybody,” Megan Lopez, Dixon’s teammate at Johnsburg, said. “She’s never backed down. She was always out there from the beginning of the day until the end of day.” Dixon always knew she wanted to play college basketball. Well, almost always. “In fifth grade she thought she was going to be a Wisconsin cheerleader,” Susan Conroy, another teammate at Johnsburg, said. “Her dad went to the University of Wisconsin. So she was always wanting to be a Madison cheerleader. “That was short-lived. Basketball became her passion.” When it did, Dixon dedicated herself to the game, making up for what she lacked in size and speed with a tireless work ethic. She played almost year round on club teams and on the Midwest Elite AAU team. At Johnsburg practices, Toussaint remembers her pushing every sprint and executing every drill with crisp precision. When practice was over, she went directly to speed and agility training with a personal trainer. “She was the hardest working kid I had, even to this day,” Toussaint said. When she’s home from college on a break, the Johnsburg coach can count on a text from Dixon, asking him to open the gym so she can continue to practice the 3-point stroke that has made her so effective. “Just growing up, I think I’ve been extremely hard working,” Dixon said. “I learned it from my family. Going the extra mile with anything you do. It’s just kind of something I strived to do.” The dedication to her craft continued in college, and in her sophomore year Dixon won the Big Ten Sixth Player of the Year Award and Iowa’s Hardest Worker Award. Through all those hours, she’s honed her shot to the point where there is little to no variance in any part of it – toes pointed toward the basket, quick release, high arc. This consistency allows her to sink shots with video game-like precision. She has made 48 percent of her shots from behind the arc this season, the best rate in the Big Ten. After she broke Iowa’s career 3-pointers record, the Hawkeyes played a video tribute. Every clip in the video looks the same: Dixon gets the ball. Turns to the hoop. Swish.

Kentucky had lost firstplace votes here and there during the season, most recently to Virginia. With the Cavaliers’ loss to Duke last week, there’s little doubt which team is No. 1 now. The lone undefeated team in Division I, Kentucky is again the unanimous No. 1 in The Associated Press’ Top 25 poll, receiving all 65 votes cast by a media panel Monday. Kentucky (12-0) has been No. 1 all season and is the unanimous pick for the first time since Jan. 4. Virginia (19-1) drew a few

first-place votes over the past few weeks, but dropped one last week, giving Kentucky 64 of a possible 65. The Cavaliers’ undefeated season – and 21-game home winning streak – ended Saturday night, when No. 4 Duke rallied for a 69-62 victory in Charlottesville. The loss left Kentucky as the undisputed No. 1 and dropped the Cavaliers to No. 3, one spot behind No. 2 Gonzaga but still ahead of fourthranked Duke. Wisconsin stayed at No. 5, followed by Arizona, Villanova, Kansas and Louisville. Notre Dame dropped two spots to No. 10 after losing to Pittsburgh last week.

Dixon speaks during an NCAA tournament news conference last season in Iowa City, Iowa. Catch. Shoot. Swoosh. “When she catches the ball, her hands and her feet are already ready,” said Bluder, who is in her third decade as a basketball coach. “She’s ready to shoot it and she has one of the quickest releases I’ve ever seen. Probably the quickest release I’ve ever coached.” ••• On Thursday, in the waning moments of a 102-99 win at Northwestern, Dixon found herself unguarded on a fast break with teammate Whitney Jennings. Dixon already had nine 3-pointers, one shy of the school record she already owned. The Johnsburg fans who made the hour trip to Welsh-Ryan Arena urged her on. Each of the shots up until this point was deep and contested, with a Northwestern player’s hand right in her face. On the fast break, she could have easily popped out to the 3-point line and buried a wide-open 3 to tie her record in front of the home crowd. But she didn’t. Instead, she darted toward the block, received a bounce pass from Jennings and laid it in. The layup kept Dixon from matching her Iowa record but was exactly what her teammates have come to expect over the past four years. “The great thing is if she doesn’t hit a 3, she doesn’t care. If we win, it doesn’t matter. I feel like not a lot of shooters have that mentality,” Iowa senior Samantha Logic said. “We’re just so blessed to have such a great shooter and basketball player, but honestly an even better person.” She shows the same deference to her teammate in interviews, too. Ask Dixon what makes her such a good 3-point shooter, and her reply is it’s her teammates’ great passing or her coaches’ great system. Ask about breaking records, and she’ll talk about winning games. This type of attitude is what her teammates have come to expect out of the player they call “Sweetie.” Growing up, Dixon’s brothers had a hard time saying her name, so her dad, Scott, gave her the nickname. It’s stuck, even in college. Her teammates and coaches, past and present, say the way she wears a smile during even the toughest workouts make it a perfect fit. “As good a basketball player as Melissa is, she’s an even better human being,” Bluder said. “She’s so kind to everyone. It’s no wonder people want to support her. She’s an unbelievable role model.” ••• Dixon’s college basketball career is closing in on its final two months. Later this year, she’ll graduate with a recreation and sports business degree. “It’s been four of the greatest years of my life. I’ve gotten to play with some amazing teammates,” Dixon said, again finding a way to work in a compliment to others. “It’s been the best experience. I’m definitely going to be really sad when it’s over.” Her career at Iowa may be ending, but her coaches – past and present – think she has the skill to keep on playing. Bluder is hopeful she will get to participate in the 3-point shooting competition at the men’s Final Four in March. After that, Bluder thinks she could have a future in professional basketball, maybe overseas. This time Toussaint’s a believer, too. “She wasn’t too small to be one of the best Big Ten shooters of all time,” he said. “She wasn’t too slow to be one of the best shooters of all time. I think she could do anything she wants to do. Her work ethic and everything. “Ten years from now, she’ll be successful in anything she’s doing. If she gets into business, anything. She’ll be somebody who’s going to be successful.”

Crystal Lake Central’s Molly Steffen (left) guards Prairie Ridge’s Kelly Klendworth while she drives toward the basket during the third quarter Monday at Central. Prairie Ridge won, 56-33.

Game-high 19 points for PR’s Klendworth • WOLVES Continued from page C1 “We have to do a better job of getting to loose balls,” Tigers coach Paul Lichtenheld said. “I thought in the first quarter when the game was tight, we were getting the loose balls on the floor. We don’t usually get them above the rim. Getting the ball once it hits the floor is our best chance, and we stopped getting those.” Wolves senior guard Kelly Klendworth led all scorers with 19 points on 7-of-11 shooting, knocking down an 18-foot jumper with 3:07 left in the third before being taken out. Vanessa Morris had six points off the bench, and McNally (12 rebounds), Haylee Giffels and Erin Wing each added four.

The Wolves outscored Central, 34-8, in the second and third quarters in building a 4816 lead. The Tigers also were playing without senior guard Kristen Bernero, who tore her ACL in the season opener, and sophomore forward Baylee Kramer. Prairie Ridge has won three in a row since its only division loss, against Grayslake North, 51-38, on Jan. 21. Leading scorer Aly Clark missed that game after being injured four days earlier, and she is not expected to return this season. “That kind of came as a shock to us,” Klendworth said of the loss. “We were just able to dig ourselves out of a hole (after that game).” Kathleen Penza added six points for Central, and Maddie Helm had five.

Marian lineman Dineen at Miami (Ohio) Junior Day

Oduya focuses on now, not future

Gavin Dineen, a 6-foot-3, 270-pound defensive tackle from Marian Central, visited Miami (Ohio) last weekend as a part of the Redhawks’ Junior Day. Dineen was among about 70 prospects to visit Oxford, Ohio, taking a tour of campus. He said he visited the Gavin Dineen business school, saw the football facilities and met the coaches, including head coach Chuck Martin and Corey Brown, the defensive line coach. “It was a very nice school,” said Dineen, who will be a senior for the Hurricanes next fall. “Everything is really nice, but the academics are strong, too. It’s a nice balance.” Marian quarterback Billy Bahl is a Miami (Ohio) commit for the class of 2015, and the big defensive lineman hopes to join him at the Division I level. “I’m looking toward [FCS] schools, a few Ivy League and Patriot League, and up to the MAC,” Dineen said. “I’m just trying to get in touch with the coaches through email, Twitter messaging. I try to talk to them through there.” He said he has no unofficial visits scheduled.

No word on return of 2 suspended Illini players Illinois fans will have to wait to see whether suspended guards Rayvonte Rice and Aaron Cosby will be back in action Tuesday against Rutgers. Both players are coming back from injuries, Rice to his left hand in the first week of January and Cosby to his left eye just more than two weeks ago. Cosby has returned to full contact in practices; Rice has been more limited, although coach John Groce said Monday that Rice might have been a full-go, too, if not for the suspension – announced before the Illini’s victory Saturday against Penn State – for an unspecified violation of team rules. Asked for an update about the statuses of Rice and Cosby, Groce offered next to nothing. “Indefinitely suspended,” he said, “and that’s where it’s at.” Asked specifically about whether they would be available for the game against Rutgers, Groce repeated: “Indefinitely suspended, and that’s where it’s at. That’s between me and them.”

Hawks’ streak ends at 19 with loss at New Orleans NEW ORLEANS – The Atlanta Hawks’ franchise-record winning streak was snapped at 19 games Monday night in a 115-100 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Anthony Davis had 29 points and 13 rebounds to help New Orleans win for the sixth time in seven games, a stint that includes victories over several contending teams, including Dallas and the Los Angeles Clippers. Jeff Teague scored 21 for Atlanta, but the Hawks fell behind by double digits in the first quarter and failed to even tie it.

Basketball analyst Anthony pleads not guilty WASHINGTON – Basketball analyst Greg Anthony pleaded not guilty to a charge of soliciting a prostitute. Anthony’s lawyer entered the plea on his behalf during an appearance in D.C. Superior Court on Monday. Anthony, who is scheduled to return to court Feb. 11, declined comment after the hearing. Anthony is charged with soliciting a prostitute at a Washington hotel Jan. 16. Court documents say he responded to an escort ad authorities placed on the classifieds website Backpage.com. The 47-year-old former NBA player was suspended by CBS and Turner Sports after his arrest.

Defenseman unlikely to be with Hawks next season By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com There’s very little chance, if any, defenseman Johnny Oduya will be wearing a Blackhawks sweater when training camp opens next fall. He knows that. Everyone knows that. It’s not that he doesn’t want to be back or that the Hawks don’t want him back. The math just doesn’t work. As an unrestricted free agent with a salary-cap crunch looming, the megadeals for Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane kicking in and Brandon Saad due a big raise, it’s virtually mathematically impossible for a veteran, well-paid defenseman such as Oduya to fit. Oduya gets that, even if he won’t get into specifics. “I’ve been around a couple of years,” said Oduya, a nineyear veteran. “I understand the ins and outs of that.” But the urgency Oduya feels now, with the clock ticking on his Hawks career, is no different than the urgency he felt last spring. Or the spring before that. As Toews often says, you only get so many chances to make a run at a Stanley Cup, and the championship window only stays open so long. So Oduya’s thinking about what’s going to happen between now and June, not what’s going to happen in July. “Everybody knows the reality of the NHL, where every year is different,” he

Hawks are in contention, and that’s what matters most. But Oduya has struggled for much of the season. He has two goals and three assists in 50 games, but the troublesome stat is that he’s a minus-6 on a team with a league-leading plus-40 goal differential. And although coach Joel Quenne-

ville chalked much of that up to the difficult defensive assignments and defensive-zone starts Oduya and longtime partner Niklas Hjalmarsson get – “He doesn’t get a lot of the perks some guys get,” Quenneville said – the harsh fact is Hjalmarsson is a plus14. Just before the All-Star break, Quenneville took the drastic step of breaking up his long-standing top two defensive pairings. He dropped Oduya to the third pairing with Michal Rozsival, although he still gets a handful of shifts a night with Hjalmarsson. Oduya is coming off two of his better games in a while and hopes he’s headed in the right direction. “It’s been a little bit up and down, especially in the first half,” he said. “I need to improve my game; I know that. I know my role for this team, so it’s important for me to give as much as I can every night for the team to be successful.” Despite the inconsistency, Quenneville said he’s not concerned about Oduya’s game. “He’s had some good stretches and some ordinary stretches,” Quenneville said. “Guys every year have stretches where you’re really happy with their game and some where they’re ordinary. But, for the most part, he’s pretty reliable.” Oduya said he’s comfortable playing with Rozsival and isn’t sweating who’s playing with whom. He’s not worried about anything, really, other than his own game and the next game. The rest will take care of itself. “I have no idea, really, what’s going on,” Oduya said of his future. “What happens in the future is in the future. Sometimes you don’t get to decide that stuff. So all you can do is play your best and have fun.”

BULLS

Thibodeau uses Super Bowl as teaching moment By SETH GRUEN sgruen@suntimes.com The Bulls weren’t preoccupied with Seahawks coach Pete Carroll’s decision to throw the ball from the 1-yard line with a chance to win the Super Bowl on Sunday. But center Joakim Noah shared his opinion. “I love Pete Carroll,” Noah said Monday. “But I’m French, and I know that was bad.” Although it drew some laughs from media members, the Bulls’ discussion of the game actually took a serious tone before practice. Coach Tom Thibodeau said he discussed the play with his players before practice, reconvening after an unusual two days off. After finishing 8-9 in January and struggling particularly on the defensive end, the Bulls are searching for

ways to refocus in a season that began with championship aspirations. Did the Super Bowl script play right into Thibodeau’s hands? Maybe. Thibodeau doesn’t need to stick to the hardwood to find examples of the championship formula he preaches. “Sometimes I think Tom it’s good to do stuff like Thibodeau that,” Thibodeau said. “Just the mental things that go into it, and sometimes one play is the difference. It’s the difference between maybe being a champion and not being a champion. That’s why how you build your habits all year is so important, how you practice, how you prepare. You look at those two teams and you say the talent is pretty much equal. So what’s going to

separate you in the end?” The answer could be health. Or at least the Bulls are hoping that could be the case. The Bulls rarely have been completely healthy. All five starters have missed action at some point. Mike Dunleavy (right ankle) is the only injured starter left. He didn’t practice Monday. Thibodeau said that given the schedule, it was a good opportunity to give Dunleavy the day off. There was no indication whether Dunleavy would practice Tuesday or play Wednesday in Houston. The veteran small forward has missed 16 consecutive games. His return could give the Bulls their first opportunity at developing some continuity. “The last month has been very up and down, but also it’s good in the sense

that we see who we really are,” Noah said. “There are a lot of areas we have to get better. ‘Dun-Dun’ coming back for us would be big.” If the Bulls knew when that might happen, it might give them a rallying point. But the situation is unpredictable. That was the point of Thibodeau talking about the Super Bowl with his team. Just as it seemed the Patriots were going to lose, the game turned completely around. “Just the range of emotion and how there’s not much difference in winning and losing,” Thibodeau said. “One play here, one play there. You looked at the Patriot sideline, and they had despair. The game changed two plays later. It just shows you how close everything is. Always got to try and put as many things in your favor as you can. It was a great game to watch.”

CLEVELAND BROWNS

Manziel enters treatment facility By TOM WITHERS The Associated Press CLEVELAND – Johnny Manziel has sought help to change his off-field lifestyle. After a rough rookie season in the NFL, Manziel has entered a treatment program for unspecified r e a s o n s , a n Johnny adviser for the Manziel Browns quarterback said in a statement released by the team Monday. “Johnny knows there are areas he needs to improve on to help him be a better family

member, friend and teammate, so he decided to take this step in his life during the offseason,” Manziel adviser Brad Beckworth said. Beckworth said the former Heisman Trophy winner entered the unnamed facility last week. He said Manziel’s family is asking for privacy until he rejoins the team. Beckworth’s statement did not indicate reasons for Manziel needing treatment. However, the 22-year-old QB’s penchant for partying followed him from college into the pros, and Manziel’s nightlife has been well-chronicled by both social and mainstream media. The location of the facility where Manziel is staying is not immediately known.

NFL NOTES

Sapp arrested, fired from role as analyst The ASSOCIATED PRESS PHOENIX – Former NFL lineman and Hall of Famer Warren Sapp was arrested Monday on suspicion of soliciting a prostitute and allegedly assaulting two women, Phoenix police said. Hours later, the NFL Network announced it had fired Sapp, who had worked as an analyst for the network since 2008 and was in Arizona for Sunday’s Super Bowl in suburban Glendale. Sapp, 42, was taken into custody at a downtown Phoenix hotel and booked into jail, police said. He made his initial appearance late Monday afternoon before a Phoenix Municipal Court judge and was released pending a Feb. 23 court date. Authorities said Sapp faces a maximum penalty of $2,500 in fines, six months in jail, three years’ probation and mandatory 15 days in jail if convicted on the prostitution charge. A tackle and defensive end, Sapp played in the NFL from 1995 to 2007 for Tampa Bay and Oakland and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2013.

Ravens’ Cody indicted on animal cruelty charges: At Baltimore, Ravens defensive tackle Terrence Cody was indicted Monday on animal cruelty charges, some of which stem

from the death of his dog and possession of an alligator, according to prosecutors and online court records. His agent called the charges ludicrous and said Cody is an animal lover.

Sherman likely needs Tommy John surgery: At Phoenix, Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman played the Super Bowl with torn ligaments in his left elbow and likely will need Tommy John surgery. Seattle coach Pete Carroll said Monday before the team left Arizona that it was his understanding Sherman would need the surgery after the AllPro cornerback was injured in the NFC championship game against Green Bay.

Judge wants to expand concussion settlement: At Philadelphia, the judge presiding over thousands of NFL concussion lawsuits wants lawyers to tweak the proposed settlement to benefit more retired players. Senior U.S. District Judge Anita B. Brody in Philadelphia has been nudging both sides toward a plan that could pay out $1 billion over 65 years. Brody granted preliminary approval last year after the NFL agreed to lift a $765 million funding cap. On Monday, she asked for further revisions that would let more retirees, or the families of deceased players, claim awards or seek neurological testing.

3 QBs drafted in top 12 picks in 2011 available • BEARS Continued from page C1 of personnel evaluators may result in a handful of different answers to, “Who is the best free-agent quarterback?” It actually might be Mark Sanchez, who had a season typical of his career – up-and-down, some great throws and some awful interceptions. He has the two AFC title games on his résumé, and showed some flashes with the Eagles last season with a career-high passer rating of 88.4. Chicago connections: Matt Moore has been one of the highest-paid backups the past two seasons while attempting only 10 passes – nice work if you can get it. He threw 16 touchdowns to nine picks in 2011 and knows Fox well from his time in Carolina from 2007 to ’10. Moore is not afraid to take chances as a quarterback (sound familiar?), but has a career completion percentage of only 58.9. This is amazing. Jake Locker, Christian Ponder and Blaine Gabbert are all free agents, three of the top 12 players drafted in 2011, another example of how difficult it can be to find that next great quarterback. New Bears quarterbacks coach Dowell Loggains knows Locker better

than most – he was in Tennessee with Locker from 2011 to ‘13. Locker has shown promise at times, but can’t stay healthy. Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio got a glimpse of Gabbert’s capabilities, watching the former Jaguar go against Fangio’s 49ers defense last season, Gabbert’s only one with San Francisco. Another free-agent quarterback Loggains knows well? Brian Hoyer, who threw 12 touchdowns and 13 picks last season in Cleveland, where Loggains was the Browns’ quarterbacks coach. Jimmy Clausen, last year’s backup, also knows Fox – the coach who drafted him – and is certainly familiar with the players on the Bears’ offense. Best of the rest: Another 2011 draftee, Ryan Mallett is a free agent, coming off a torn pectoral muscle following his first two starts in the NFL (after three years behind Tom Brady). Michael Vick may be an intriguing option, but he turns 35 in June and completed 52.9 percent of his passes with the Jets last season. Then there’s Matt Flynn, who has bounced around a bit since the Seahawks gave him that big contract in 2012. Flynn did have a passer rating of 86.1 in his four starts for the Packers in 2013.

Patriots safety Malcolm Butler intercepts a pass near the goal line during the final seconds of Super Bowl XLIX on Sunday in Glendale, Ariz., to preserve New England’s 28-24 victory against the Seattle Seahawks.

SUPER BOWL XLIX

From Popeyes to Pats’ hero Restaurant manager remembers Butler as ‘hard worker’ By ADAM KILGORE The Washington Post hennelle Parker, the manager of the Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen in Vicksburg, Mississippi, could always count on Malcolm Butler. Parker hired Butler as a cashier, and before long Butler began to “cross train,” which meant he could perform every task in the store. Butler showed up on time, washed dishes, took orders up front and graduated to the batter station, where he would drop chicken into sizzling oil. “He was a good employee,” Parker said Monday morning in a phone conversation. “He kept the customers happy and pleased. I was always pleased. He was a hard worker. Everybody in here really liked working with him.” Parker last saw Butler about one month ago, during the New England Patriots’ bye week. Butler had gone home to Vicksburg, and every time he traveled home he still stopped by Popeyes to see his old boss and talk. “He was excited about the playoffs,” Parker said. Monday morning, Parker watched Butler give an interview on ESPN. She beamed when Butler mentioned he used to work at Popeyes. Butler had completed an inconceivable path from batter cook to Division II standout to undrafted rookie to Super Bowl hero. Sunday night, Butler sealed the Patriots’ 28-24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks with an interception at the goal line with 20 seconds remaining, both the deciding play of a classic Super Bowl and the culmination of Butler’s self-made ascension. “The first thing I want to say is he’s a tremendous young man with a tremendous attitude,” said Will Hall, Butler’s coach at Division II West Alabama. “Every day he wakes up, every time he runs into somebody, he makes their day better. He’s just one of those people.” For the public, Butler’s interception turned him into an overnight sensation. Nothing about his story, though, is instant or easy. Butler earned his place in football history through years of perseverance, through overcoming challenges from childhood with honest, constant work. Butler grew up in Vicksburg with no advantages. “Earlier in his life, he didn’t have the easiest childhood,” Hall said. “He didn’t have a whole lot of money, a whole lot of extra things.” Butler started working at Popeyes on the weekend in high school to help his mother make ends meet. Butler struggled in school and did not make grades to qualify for Division I football. He attended Hinds Community College. He played five games before Hinds dismissed him. (According to the

Providence Journal, he was arrested and charged with possession of drug paraphernalia.) Butler moved back to Vicksburg and worked at Popeyes, hoping for another chance. Hinds took Butler back for his sophomore season, and he capitalized on his second chance. On weekends, he still returned home to work at Popeyes. Teams from Conference USA and the Sun Belt recruited Butler, but his grades still weren’t good enough to qualify for Division I. During his time at West Alabama, Hall coached seven players who played professionally, and all of them came to him for academic reasons. “He’s never had anything given to him,” Hall said. “Anything he’s Malcolm got in his life, he’s had Butler to work for and get for himself. You see a lot of guys that are in that situation, and they go the other way. Malcolm realized early on no matter what hand you’re dealt, you’re responsible for your success and failures. Just like all of us, as he grew and got older, he realized what mattered.” Butler continued to work away from football, taking a work-study job at the school fitness center. Butler sopped sweat off spinning bikes. He washed towels. He mopped locker room floors. He never complained. “Malcolm’s just a guy that brightens your day,” Hall said. Immediately, Hall saw Butler possessed the potential to play in the NFL. He had decent size and decent speed, though he wasn’t the biggest or fastest defensive back on his team. But Butler stood out with his ability to break on passes, to play the ball in the air. He also had a penchant for making his best plays in the biggest moments. West Alabama had never won an outright Gulf Coast Conference championship. Those usually went to North Alabama, a league power that historically dominated West Alabama. In Butler’s senior season, North Alabama returned an interception for a touchdown to tie the score, and in the stadium, Hall said, a sense of inevitability set in that North Alabama would beat West Alabama again. Then Butler returned the ensuing kickoff for a touchdown. West Alabama beat North Alabama and won its first conference title. “Obviously,” Hall said, “that’s not the biggest play he’s made now.” Early in his career at West Alabama, the Patriots showed interest in Butler. Joe Judge, the Patriots’ special teams coordinator, noticed Butler’s ability to return

and cover kicks. The Patriots value versatility, and Butler showed promise as a special teams contributor. Hall knew New England wanted him, and after Butler went undrafted, the Patriots signed him as a free agent. Active for 11 out of 16 regular-season games, Butler played mostly on special teams. But he made an impression on his teammates with his tireless work and his improvement during the week. His playing time grew late in the season. “He’s been picking me off all season in practice,” Patriots quarterback Tom Brady said at Monday morning’s post-Super Bowl news conference. “So it was nice to see him do it to someone else.” All game long, Butler hounded Seahawks receiver Jermaine Kearse – he knocked away the pass that Kearse then miraculously caught lying on his back after it bobbled in the air to set up the Seahawks with a first-and-goal at the 5-yard line in the final minute. On second-and-goal from the one, Butler set up on the right side of the Seahawks’ formation, the Patriots’ third cornerback. Defensive coordinator Matt Patricia had told him to look for Ricardo Lockette, the outside receiver, to run a slant and try to run him into another crossing receiver. “I knew they were going to throw it,” Butler said. Lockette slanted across the middle. For a moment, he came wide open at the goal line, with Butler standing 3 yards deep in the end zone. Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson fired the ball. Butler darted forward, doing what he did best during his time at West Alabama – making a play on the ball in the air. He knocked shoulders with Lockette as the ball arrived and snared the pass. Butler surged forward, dropped to his knees and rested his head on the turf. “I was so emotional,” Butler said. “I had a feeling I was going to make a big play, but not this big.” Back in Vicksburg, Shennelle Parker roared in celebration. Her former employee, her Facebook friend, had just won the Super Bowl, four years removed from frying chicken to make a living. Butler has not forgotten where he came from. “He always tells me he loved working at Popeyes,” Parker said. Parker plans to buy a Patriots jersey with Butler’s name and number. She looks forward to seeing Butler again on his next trip home to Vicksburg. Parker knows he’ll stop by again. She plans to take a picture with Butler, the former batter cook turned Super Bowl hero. She will pin that picture on the wall, for every person who walks into the Vicksburg Popeyes to see.

FIVE-DAY PLANNER

GOLF

Koepka takes long, bumpy road to first PGA Tour title tied that week with Spieth. And that’s when their paths went in different directions. Spieth chose sponsor exemptions, and Monday qualifying if needed, on the Web.com Tour. He got a break by tying for second in the Puerto Rico Open on the PGA Tour after getting a sponsor’s exemption. Then came a rocket rise – tour status in May, a victory in July and a spot on the Presidents Cup team in October. Koepka headed for the airport. He had status on the Challenge Tour from his win at the Catalunya Challenge, and he won in Italy in May. He followed with victories in Spain and Scotland to earn an instant promotion to the European Tour, each step bringing higher status. And he already had more wins than he did in college. “Whether it be success or failure, I have learned a lot,” Koepka said. “I think I won maybe two, three times in college. But it’s funny. Looking back, I have won on the Challenge Tour, one in Europe and one here now. It’s been special. But my drive, I think, is what it is. I want to be the best player in the world. I’m not there yet, and I know it’s going to take time. But I want to get to that point.” And he runs in good circles. His roommate in Florida and frequent travel companion on the global road of the European Tour was former U.S. Amateur champion Peter Uihlein, who tied for 13th in Dubai. He also plays practice rounds with McIlroy, whom he knows from Europe and living in South Florida, although they rarely see each other at home. Koepka said he might be a late bloomer, although hard work cannot be dismissed. And he has no qualms with where he went to get to where he is now. He wanted experience. He wanted four rounds on Challenge Tour events instead of being hopeful for exemptions or lucky with Monday qualifiers. He can’t complain about the results.

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – For the longest time, Brooks Koepka was known primarily for the stamps in his passport. His peers knew better. As he began his first year as a PGA Tour member in the Frys.com Open in October, players would stop when they saw Koepka and watch him walk to the putting green or driving range. The consensus? This guy is going to be good. More than the words of other players, Koepka now has the trophies to back it up. He won the Turkish Airlines Open in November during the final stretch of the Race to Dubai on the European Tour. Against an even stronger field in the Phoenix Open, the 24-year-old Floridian went 64-66 on the weekend and played his last 47 holes without a bogey to earn is first PGA Tour title Sunday. Koepka (pronounced KEP’-kuh) was among five players tied for the lead in the final hour, but only after rolling in a 50-foot eagle putt from the fringe on the 15th. He seized control when his 3-wood on the 322-yard 17th hole rolled over the green and stopped a foot from the water. One hole away from his first PGA Tour victory, on a closing hole at the TPC Scottsdale framed by bunkers, he blasted his drive 331 yards down the middle. It was a strong performance, and it looks even better considering Koepka now has won twice in his past four starts, rose to No. 19 in the world and put his name into the conversation for a U.S. team at the Presidents Cup that is getting younger by the week. Golf is going through an undeniable generation shift, led by Rory McIlroy, who won in Dubai on Sunday to expand his growing gap in the world ranking. Jordan Spieth, the 21-year-old Texan, is No. 9 in the world. Patrick Reed, 24, won his fourth PGA Tour event at the start

Brooks Koepka smiles after missing a birdie putt on the 18th hole during the Phoenix Open on Sunday in Scottsdale, Ariz. Koepka won his first PGA Tour title. of the year. Koepka never was mentioned in that group when he turned pro because he didn’t have their credentials. He was the guy who pursued his career in golf’s remote outposts – Kazakhstan and Kenya, Norway and the Czech Republic. He had a decorated career at Florida State, although he never won a tournament until his senior year (and won three times) and played in the NCAA Championship only twice, never finishing higher than a tie for 18th. Spieth was a Sunday feature at the Byron Nelson Championship when he was 16, joined Tiger Woods as the only multiple winners of the U.S. Junior Amateur, played on an NCAA title team at Texas and in the Walker Cup. Reed helped Augusta State to a pair of NCAA titles and reached the semifinals of the U.S. Amateur. Koepka won a Challenge Tour event – the equivalent of the Web. com Tour in Europe – in Spain, and then tried his hand at Q-school for a PGA Tour card. He failed to get out of the second stage, missing by two shots in Texas. He wasn’t alone. He

SUPER BOWL SETS RECORD TV VIEWERSHIP

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Tuesday, February 3, 2015 • Section C • Page 6

NEW YORK – An estimated 114.4 million people watched New England’s thrilling win over Seattle, making it the fifth time in six years that a Super Bowl game has set a record as the most-watched event in U.S. TV history. The Nielsen company said the game’s viewership exceeded the record of 112.2 million set last year, when Seattle beat Denver. The game also set records for social media reach. A stirring comeback by New England and game-saving interception in the final minute kept viewers glued to the set.

Winfrey, ‘Selma’ filmmaker team on new drama series for OWN LOS ANGELES – Oprah Winfrey and the director of the Oscar-nominated movie “Selma” are creating a drama series for Winfrey’s TV channel. The project from Winfrey and filmmaker Ava DuVernay is inspired by the Natalie Baszile novel “Queen Sugar,” the OWN channel said Monday. Winfrey will serve as executive producer and will play a recurring role, the network said. DuVernay will write, direct and executive produce the drama, her first TV series. A debut date for the series was not announced. AP file photo

Bobbi Kristina Brown (left) and Nick Gordon attend the Los Angeles premiere of “Sparkle” at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles.

Haunting parallels between Whitney Houston, daughter ROSWELL, Georgia – The parallels are haunting: Bobbi Kristina Brown and her mother, Whitney Houston, were both found face-down in bathtubs as the music industry prepared for the Grammy Awards. Both lived in the constant glare of entertainment industry attention, both struggled with drugs; both married men criticized by family and friends as wrong for them. As the pop star’s 21-year-old daughter lay hospitalized Monday as of press time, police in Roswell, Georgia, issued a very brief incident report, saying officers were called Saturday in response to her “drowning” at her home in suburban Atlanta. Her husband, Nick Gordon, was at the scene and tried to revive her while a friend called 911. “Bobbi Kristina is fighting for her life and is surrounded by immediate family,” a Houston family statement said Monday. “We are asking you to honor our request for privacy during this difficult time.” With no details forthcoming from police or family about her condition or what may have caused the tragedy, many people looked to see what she’s been posting online. Her last tweet, from Thursday, reflected obvious frustration over her failure to break out as an entertainer: “Let’s start this career up&&moving OUT to TO YOU ALLLL quick shall we !?!???!” Two days later, her nonresponsive body was discovered, in circumstances eerily similar to her mother’s death.

Former rap mogul Marion ‘Suge’ Knight charged with murder LOS ANGELES – Former hip-hop music mogul Marion “Suge” Knight was charged Monday with murder and attempted murder after he struck two men with his pickup truck last week. Prosecutors allege that Knight intended to run down a friend and another man after an argument on a movie set. One of the men was killed. Attorney James Blatt said Knight accidentally ran over the men on Thursday as he tried to escape a vicious attack. He turned himself in to police Friday. Knight’s initial bail of $2 million was revoked Monday after a court commissioner agreed with authorities that he was a potential flight risk and could intimidate witnesses. The ruling came after homicide detectives told the bail commissioner that the 49-year-old founder of Death Row Records could face a lengthy prison sentence because of a violent criminal past and had the potential to intimidate witnesses, Los Angeles County sheriff’s spokeswoman Nicole Nishida said. Knight is scheduled to appear in court in Compton on

Tuesday to be arraigned on four felony counts, which include murder in the death of 55-year-old Terry Carter, “attempted, willful, deliberate, and premeditated murder” involving victim 51-year-old Cle “Bone” Sloan, plus two charges of hit-and-run.

Oscar nominees relax at annual luncheon before the big event BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. – For best actress contender Julianne Moore, the Oscar nominee luncheon feels more like a massive press junket where everyone is in the same movie than an actual competition. The annual event, held Monday at the Beverly Hilton, brings together more than 150 nominees to celebrate the honor before the golden statuettes are actually handed out at the 87th Academy Awards ceremony on Feb. 22. Also in attendance were Michael Keaton, Reese Witherspoon, Eddie Redmayne, Oprah Winfrey, Steve Carell and many others.

Robin Williams’ wife, children fight over his estate SAN FRANCISCO – Robin Williams’ children and wife have gone to court in a fight over the late comedian’s estate. In papers filed in December in San Francisco Superior Court, Williams’ wife, Susan, says some of the late actor’s personal items were taken without her permission and asks the court to exclude the contents of the Tiburon home that she shared with Williams from the jewelry, memorabilia and other items Williams said the children should have. The children, Zachary, Zelda and Cody, counter that Susan Williams is “adding insult to a terrible injury” by trying to change the trust agreement and rob them of the late actor’s clothing and other personal items.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

TODAY - Make this a productive year by being realistic about what you can and cannot do. If you take on too much, you will end up exhausted, frustrated and disappointed. Your role as peacemaker will bring you recognition, and if you play your cards right, you will be considered for advancement. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Streamline your efforts and concentrate on one project at a time. The more you take on, the harder it will be to remain in control and reach your destination. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Success is in the cards. Be secretive about your ideas to avoid someone intervening and throwing you off your game. If you follow your intuition, you will come out ahead. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Slow and steady will win the race. Mistakes are likely if you have too many irons in the fire. There is someone who wants to collaborate with you. Make sure the partnership is an equal one. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Spend time on your own. Research something or someone you find intriguing. Studying and honing your skills will keep you from getting into a damaging, emotional debate. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You will have a chance to try something out of the ordinary. If you participate in everything that is going on, you will have an eye-opening experience. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You can get what you want if you are patient. Let things unfold naturally. Don’t rush into new ventures. If you want to take advantage of new possibilities, you must pay close attention. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Compromise will be a necessity. Don’t fall for an offer that sounds too good to be true. Keep your valuables under close surveillance. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Keep an eye out for a job opportunity. A chance to pick up additional skills should not be missed. Give whatever you do your best shot in order to succeed. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You will end up paying the price if you have been overspending or overindulging. Make an effort to get back on track and stick to your budget. Love is apparent. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Career advancement should be your first concern. You can increase your cash flow by marketing a unique idea to the right people. A personal relationship needs to be nurtured. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you are feeling down and out, take time to rejuvenate. Find a relaxing way to soothe your nerves. Get plenty of rest and prepare to take on the world. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Love and romance are highlighted. If you plan a fun activity with someone special, you will discover how much you have in common. An impromptu trip will result in improved living arrangements.

ADVICE 7

Stepmother wishes others Hand-washing and good wouldn’t devalue her role hygiene help prevent MRSA Dear Abby: I’m a 42-yearold divorced woman with no children. My ex-husband has a son whose life I was a part of for 18 years. When people ask if I have kids, my reply is, “Yes, I have a stepson.” Why do people think it’s OK to say things such as, “That’s not the same as having your own” or “That doesn’t count”? Then they usually go on to ask why I don’t have children of my own. My response is a big fat lie. I say, “It just never happened.” The truth is my ex didn’t want any more children. What can I say to these people to let them know they need to stop and think about what they say and ask, because their word choice in this circumstance is hurtful to the point of tears? – Stepmom In California Dear Stepmom: A person who would downplay your role as a parent is rude, thoughtless and not worth your time. As to asking why someone is childless, I have addressed this subject in my column before. While many folks start conversations by

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips asking whether someone has children, it can be a dangerous question. I learned my lesson and stopped asking after having received an answer from one man that his son was doing life in prison as an accomplice to murder. Another man told me he had two children, a daughter and an estranged son who also was serving a long sentence – for selling narcotics. Neither person was happy to have been asked. After that, I stopped asking. I see no reason why you shouldn’t simply tell the truth about why you are child-free. Not having (or wanting) children is nothing to be ashamed of – it’s a personal choice that an increasing number of couples have opted for without regret. Dear Abby: My boyfriend and I have been together for 18 months. Last night we were talking about doing more in the bedroom, and he told me he is bisexual.

I have nothing against the LGBT community, but finding this out after so long shocked me. I’m worried now, and I can’t seem to wrap my head around the fact that he has sex with guys. I just can’t quite look at or think of him the same way. I really do love him and can still see a future with him. I just don’t know how to handle this big news. Please, Abby, you’re my only hope. – Liz In Texas Dear Liz: I would be curious about why your boyfriend waited so long to tell you. Because someone is bisexual does not mean the person is unfaithful and sleeping with both sexes at the same time. It simply means the person is attracted to members of both sexes. You need to have further discussion with your boyfriend regarding his attitude about his commitment to you before deciding what to do about his “big” news.

Dear Dr. K: What is MRSA? What makes it so dangerous? Dear Reader: In the early days of antibiotics, 70 years ago, one of the most common and dangerous types of bacteria – Staphylococcus aureus – could be killed by penicillin. However, these bacteria soon developed resistance to penicillin. So we invented another antibiotic, methicillin, which killed them. So far, so good. Then, these bacteria developed resistance to methicillin. These bacteria are called MRSA: methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. MRSA is dangerous because it cannot be treated with many antibiotics. MRSA behaves much like other staph bacteria. It most often lives in the nose or on the skin without causing disease. But all staph bacteria have the potential to cause trouble. They can cause boils or other mild skin infections, as well as life-threatening lung and blood infections. Some strains of MRSA have evolved other threatening features. For example, white blood cells from the body’s immune system normally work together with an

• Write Dear Abby at www.dearabby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff antibiotic to destroy bacteria. A hardy strain of MRSA destroys white blood cells. Other MRSA strains have developed ways to spread more easily from one person to the next. In the community, spread of MRSA is more likely between people who: • Don’t maintain good personal hygiene; • Don’t wash their hands frequently; • Share contaminated items, such as towels or razors. The best way to prevent MRSA and other infections is to wash your hands frequently with soap and water. If you can’t get to a sink, use an alcohol-based hand cleanser. Here are some more tips to help avoid picking up and spreading MRSA and other germs: • Keep cuts or scrapes clean. Cover them with bandages and change the bandages daily. If you develop increasing redness, swelling or pain around a cut, call your

doctor. • Don’t share personal items such as razors, towels and sheets. • Wash workout clothes and athletic team uniforms after each use. • Shower after you work out. • Wash sheets and towels in hot water. Dry them in a hot dryer. Unfortunately, over the past 50 years, MRSA has become pretty common in health facilities. That’s why it’s really important, when visiting a person in a hospital or nursing home, to thoroughly wash your hands before and after your visit. Even more unfortunately, MRSA increasingly is found throughout the community, not just in health care institutions. Certain antibiotics that typically have to be given intravenously (rather than as pills) can kill MRSA. Doctors hope we will be able to keep one step ahead of MRSA through medical research. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

Removal of birthmark would improve teen’s self-esteem Dr. Wallace: I’m 17, and was born with a deep purple “strawberry” birthmark on my neck and a small section of my left cheek. I’ve always been very self-conscious about this, and it has really affected my social growth. I would like to have it removed by laser surgery this summer, so I could start being the “new me” before I start college in September. My parents and grandparents kept telling me I’d get used to my birthmark, but I’ve had it for 17 years and I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it. Have you ever had any letters from teens who had the same problem and had the laser surgery success-

‘TWEEN 12 & 20 Dr. Robert Wallace fully? If so, could you please print a couple of them so my parents can know that others have been helped by this procedure? I’d also like to know if it is an expensive procedure because my grandparents have offered to pay for it if I decide on it. – Nameless,

Lansing, Michigan Nameless: I checked my files and found one letter about laser surgery for removal of a strawberry

birthmark. I’m sure the letter below will be helpful in making your decision for removal of your birthmark. Before you decide, you and your parents should talk with several surgeons who perform this type of surgery and get their recommendations. Your family physician can put you in touch with competent laser surgeons. Dr. Wallace: I was born with a strawberry birthmark on my face and neck. Last year I researched laser surgery, and liked what I discovered and decided to have the treatment. It was the best decision I ever made. I needed four treatments. The treatments were pain-

less, and they took about 15 minutes each. I returned every six weeks for a treatment, and when I finished, the result was amazing. Now for the first time in my life, I’m wearing my hair in a different style. The wonderful thing was that insurance covered almost the entire cost. I’d advise other teens with similar birthmarks to check out laser surgery. It sure worked for me. – Happy Girl, Lakeland,

Florida Dr. Wallace: I’m nearly 15, and I have great parents, but they are convinced I have an eating disorder called anorexia. I think they believe this because I don’t eat any

kind of meat. But I do eat a lot of fruits and vegetables and other nutritious foods. They are always trying to change my eating habits, and they have taken me to several counselors and a doctor to see if I have anorexia. But none of them say I have it. I’m not “skin and bones,” and none of my friends are either. They know I’m terrified of needles, but now they have scheduled me to have blood tests to see what my “problem” is. I don’t know why they are so worried. I’m not even on a “crazy” diet. I just eat good food without any kind of meat. Please encourage my parents to let up on me because they

are making my life miserable. – Nameless, Vicksburg,

Mississippi Nameless: Avoiding meat, but eating nutritious foods does not make you an anorexic. The key is your weight. If you have a thin body build and also are losing weight, then your parents would be wise to have a check-up from a doctor to find out if you do have a medical or eating disorder. There must be some reason for your parents to be so concerned about your health. Better to find out and put everyone’s mind at rest. • Write to Dr. Wallace at rwallace@galesburg.net.

In today’s deal, how should South play in four spades after West leads a trump, East takes the trick with his ace and returns his trump jack, West following suit? South starts with ive potential losers in his hand: one spade, two hearts and two diamonds. He begins with only eight winners: ive spades, one heart and two clubs. Declarer can ruff his third heart in the dummy, but how will he ind a 10th trick? If the heart inesse is losing, West had better also hold the diastymied.
