Relief in sight for propane users

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com After a propane shortage sent prices skyrocketing last month and left homeowners with heating bills two and three times higher than normal, relief may be on the way.

Last month, propane prices reached nearly $6 a gallon, up from the usual $1.50 a gallon, according to Conserv FS Energy Manager Brock Bentson.

“It’s very unusual,” Bentson said. “We’ve never seen anything this bad.”

But prices have started to

come down recently, Bentson said, with propane now going for around $3.50 a gallon.

On Jan. 27, Gov. Pat Quinn declared a propane supply emergency in Illinois, which allowed propane truck drivers to travel to other states to fill their tanks, temporarily waived inspections of trucks

that carry propane in order to speed up delivery, and provided a $1,000 credit for households that took part in a program that helps low-income residents with energy bills.

Bentson said the combination of a wet fall season, which resulted in increased corn drying, a lack of propane inventory in the Midwest and the colder-than-normal winter were all factors in driving up the price of propane.

The price jump put a strain on households and businesses

Propane is delivered to the Riverside Plaza development in Algonquin. After a propane shortage sent prices skyrocketing last month, relief may be on the way.

Seventh-grader Henry Kmiec, 12, plays the trumpet Monday during band practice at Cary Junior High School. Even though this school year District 26 brought back art and music, it did not bring back the Cary Junior High Band. The void had been filled by the Cary Band Association, which provides lessons for students.

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com CARY – Inside the band room at Cary Junior High, Band Director Alex Carlson conducts a group of sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders in a theme song medley which includes the Flintstones, Jetsons, Simpsons, Pink Panther and Animaniacs.

The symphonic band has about 45 students playing flutes, trombones, clarinets, trumpets and

Association asks D-26 to resume picking up the tab for program drums among other instruments after the school day.

However, it’s the Cary Band Association that pays Carlson to give lessons to the students at the junior high and conduct the bands. Now the association is asking District 26 to start picking up the tab again.

After a three-year hiatus of mu-

sic and art programs in District 26, this school year the district was able to reinstate those programs.

However, the fifth- through eighth-grade band program was something District 26 did not include in its budget.

“Now that the district has begun to reinstate art, music and physi-

cal education back into the school system, it is time for the band program to return as well,” said Scott Sampson, president of the band association.

“While we understand all programs need to be evaluated based upon student impact versus cost, we feel the additional cost of the band program would be minimal in the overall district budget,” Sampson added.

Quinn taking body blows in GOP primary Without a doubt, the most overlooked aspect of Bruce Rauner’s multimillion-dollar TV ad buy has been his advertising campaign’s repeated attacks on Gov. Pat Quinn.

“Career politicians are running our state into the ground, and Pat Quinn, he’s at the top of the heap,” Rauner says in one of his ads that have permeated the airwaves since November.

“Pat Quinn, a career politician who failed to deliver term limits,” a Rauner TV announcer declares in another spot.

The millions of dollars worth of ads are supposedly aimed at Republican primary voters, but, obviously, everybody else in the state is seeing them as well. And Quinn, who doesn’t have a well-funded primary opponent, hasn’t bothered to rebut any of Rauner’s multiple attacks.

That could have been a huge mistake, particularly considering Illinois’ persistently high unemployment rates, the hostile national climate, the never-ending negative stories about the state’s finances and Quinn’s four-year history of low job performance scores.

If a new Capitol Fax/We Ask America poll is accurate, then Rauner’s months-long unrebutted attacks have helped knock Quinn into a shockingly deep hole.

According to the poll of 1,354 likely

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Rich Miller general election voters, all four of Quinn’s potential Republican primary opponents have pulled ahead of the long-unpopular Democratic governor.

The poll, taken Jan. 30, found that Sen. Bill Brady leads Gov. Quinn, 48-39.

Sen. Kirk Dillard and Treasurer Dan Rutherford are ahead of Quinn, 46-37.

And Rauner leads the governor, 47-39.

The self-described party affiliation in the poll was 22 percent Republican and 38 percent Democratic, while 40 percent said they were independents.

Nineteen percent of the polling universe was cellphone users.

“Pat Quinn has made a career out of overcoming the odds and the electorate clearly know more about him than the others,” pollster Gregg Durham said.

“When that balances out, we may see a dramatically different picture.”

Yes, we may. But right now, voters know Pat Quinn and they really don’t like him.

According to the poll, which had a margin of error of plus or minus 2.7 percent, a whopping 59 percent of likely voters disapprove of Gov. Quinn’s job performance. A mere 29 percent

approve of his job performance and 12 percent were undecided.

The poll has Quinn leading his opponents in Chicago, but nowhere else.

He’s ahead of Brady 63-25 in the city, and his lead there is similar against the other three as well.

But the Republicans average a surprising six-point lead over Quinn in the Cook County suburbs, which have been trending Democratic for years.

The margin was much higher in the collar counties, where the Republican field led Quinn by an average of 12 points each. Downstate, though, Quinn is getting absolutely crushed. The GOP candidates’ average lead is a gigantic 30 percentage points each.

Take a look at the regional job approval breakdowns and you’ll see what’s behind this. According to the poll, a whopping 73 percent of downstaters disapprove of Quinn’s job performance, while a mere 19 percent approve.

Another 62 percent of collar county voters disapprove and just 32 percent approve. Suburban Cook voters disapprove of Quinn’s job performance by a 56-25 margin. Only in Chicago is Quinn above water, and even there, just 49 percent approve of his job performance, while 32 percent disapprove.

Among women, Quinn is doing just barely OK. He’s ahead of Brady and

Rauner by a point, in front of Dillard by two points and trails Rutherford by a point. Men, however, are going overwhelming for his Republican opponents. Brady leads Quinn by 24 points among men, Dillard leads him by 25 points and Rauner and Rutherford lead by 21 among males.

According to the poll, a mind-blowing 62 percent of men disapprove of Quinn’s job performance, while 57 percent of women disapprove. His approval ratings are abysmal. Just 24 percent of men approve, while 31 percent of women think he’s doing a good job.

The Republican candidates also are whomping the governor among independents, where they’re averaging a 56-24 lead.

The bottom line here is that the mostly union-financed TV advertising attacks on Bruce Rauner, which will supposedly kick off this week, had better do their magic and disqualify the newcomer or the kabillionaire candidate will just stay on the air until the fall, keeping his advertising foot on the governor’s already hobbled political neck for the rest of the year. It won’t be pretty.

8TODAY’S TALKER

Sugar consumption tied to fatal heart problems The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Could too much sugar be deadly? The biggest study of its kind suggests the answer is yes, at least when it comes to fatal heart problems.

It doesn’t take much extra sugar, hidden in many processed foods, to substantially raise the risk, researchers found, and most Americans eat more than the safest amount.

Having a cinnamon roll with your morning coffee, a supersized sugary soda at lunch and a scoop of ice cream after dinner would put you in the highest risk category in the study. That means your chance of dying prematurely from heart problems is nearly three times greater than for people who eat only foods with little added sugar.

For someone who normally

eats 2,000 calories daily, even consuming two 12-ounce cans of soda substantially increases the risk. For most American adults, sodas and other sugary drinks are the main source of added sugar.

Lead author Quanhe Yang of the U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention called the results sobering and said it’s the first nationally representative study to examine the

issue.

Scientists aren’t certain exactly how sugar may contribute to deadly heart problems, but it has been shown to increase blood pressure and levels of unhealthy cholesterol and triglycerides; and also may increase signs of inflammation linked with heart disease, said Rachel Johnson, head of the American Heart Association’s nutrition committee.

8NATION BRIEFS Christie cooperating with prosecutor’s subpoena TRENTON, N.J. – Gov. Chris Christie on Monday said that his office is cooperating with a subpoena from federal authorities investigating whether any laws were broken when lanes near a New Jersey bridge were apparently closed for political retribution.

The Republican governor also said in a radio interview as he took questions for the first time in more than three weeks that he may have heard about the traffic tie-ups in Fort Lee when they were going on last September, but that it didn’t register with him as a major issue if he did.

He said that a news report several days after the lanes were reopened got his attention and that he asked staffers to look into it. The report indicated that the head of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey did not authorize the closings.

Police: Escaped prisoner captured in Indiana IONIA, Mich. – A convicted killer who peeled a hole in two fences with his hands to escape from a Michigan prison before abducting a woman and fleeing to Indiana was captured Monday evening after a chase, authorities said.

Officials were stunned by the brazen escape Sunday night of Michael David Elliot, who had a record of good behavior during his 20 years in custody.

He wore a white civilian kitchen uniform to evade security and blend in with snow at the Ionia Correctional Facility in western Michigan, prison spokesman Russ Marlan said. Indiana State Police Sgt. Ron Galaviz said Elliot was captured in LaPorte County after a police chase.

How exactly Elliot was able to get out of the Michigan prison remains unclear. Fences were equipped with motion sensors to alert guards. The fences also carry electric current to shock anyone that touches them.

Former Fed chairman joining Brookings WASHINGTON – Ben Bernanke, who stepped down last week after eight momentous years as chairman of the Federal Reserve, is joining the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank.

Bernanke will be a distinguished fellow in residence affiliated with Brookings’ Hutchins Center on Fiscal and Monetary Policy, according to Brookings President Strobe Talbott.

Janet Yellen was sworn in Monday to succeed Bernanke at the Fed. Bernanke had not previously disclosed his plans but had said he intended to stay in Washington and looked forward to writing and giving speeches on economic policy. Before coming to Washington, he had taught at Princeton University.

Fat flakes fell in Philadelphia and New York, creating slushy sidewalks and streets and all but erasing memories of Sunday’s temperatures in the 50s.

The storm began moving out of the region Monday afternoon, making way for another system expected to sweep in from the Plains with ice and snow late Tuesday and early Wednesday.

The National Weather Service reported about 8 inches of snow near Frostburg, Md., while parts of southern Ohio and West Virginia got about 10 inches. New York saw as much as 7 inches by 3 p.m.

Transcripts at issue in Blago appeal

By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press CHICAGO – Whether to unseal transcripts of FBI wiretaps that were not played at Rod Blagojevich’s corruption trials but that were submitted as part of his appeal became a point of contention Monday between prosecutors and the defense.

While the 7th U.S. Court of Appeals in Chicago is still mulling its decision on the imprisoned former Illinois

governor’s request to toss his convictions, it had indicated it would unseal the transcripts Monday.

The recordings in dispute are among those trial Judge James Zagel barred defense lawyers from playing to jurors. Among the arguments in Blagojevich’s 100-page appeal is that the tapes could have helped the Illinois Democrat make his case for acquittal.

Blagojevich, 57, is in a prison near Denver serving a 14year sentence, including for

illegally seeking to exchange an appointment to President Barack Obama’s old Senate seat for campaign cash or a job.

Before the appellate court could unseal Rod the transcripts Blagojevich at issue Monday, the government filed a motion late Friday objecting, citing the privacy of some subjects on the wiretaps and

other concerns.

In a response filed Monday, the defense urged the court to promptly open the records, arguing transparency was “an important safeguard” against violations of a defendant’s rights.

All the most sensational recordings are believed to have been released during or before Blagojevich’s trials, so it’s unclear if the transcripts at question in the competing motions could shed any new light.

The most notorious recording – played at both Blagojevich trials – was of him saying about the Senate seat, “I’ve got this thing and it’s f------ golden. And I’m just not giving it up for f------ nothing.”

The appeal argues Blagojevich engaged in legal political horse-trading regarding the seat and that FBI recordings supported that contention. A ruling on the appeal is expected within several months.

Five things to know about the farm bill

By MARY CLARE JALONICK

Larry Hasheider walks along one of his cornfields Oct. 16, 2013, on his farm in Okawville, Ill. Cuts in food stamps, continued subsidies to farmers and victories for animal rights advocates: The massive farm bill heading toward final passage this week has broad implications for just about every American.

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Cuts to food stamps, continued subsidies to farmers and victories for animal rights advocates.

The massive, five-year farm bill heading toward final passage this week has broad implications for just about every American, from the foods we eat to what we pay for them.

Support for farmers through the subsidies included in the legislation helps determine the price of food and what is available. And money for food stamps helps the neediest Americans who might otherwise go hungry.

The legislation could reach President Barack Obama this week. The House already has passed the bipartisan measure and the Senate was scheduled to pass the bill Tuesday after the chamber voted to move forward on the legislation Monday evening.

Five things you should know about the farm bill:

AP file photo

benefits by giving people small amounts of federal heating assistance that they don’t need. Much of the rest of the money goes to farm subsidies and programs to protect environmentally sensitive lands.

WHERE THE MONEY GOES:

SUBSIDIES MAINTAINED:

Most of the bill’s almost $100 billion-a-year price tag goes to the nation’s food stamp program, now known as SNAP, or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. One in seven Americans, or about 47 million people, participates in the program.

The legislation cuts food stamps by about $800 million, or 1 percent, by cracking down on states that seek to boost individual food stamp

Farmers will continue to receive generous federal subsidies that help them stay in business in an unpredictable environment, but through revamped programs. The bill eliminates a fixed $4.5 billion-a-year subsidy called direct payments, which are paid to farmers whether they farm or not.

New subsidies would require farmers to incur losses before they could collect from the federal government.

The bill would also overhaul dairy and cotton subsidies and transition them into similar insurance-style programs.

Most farmers would pick between a program that would pay out when revenue dips or another that pays out when prices drop.

The legislation would also spend about $570 million more a year on crop insurance, which, on top of subsidies, protects farmers in the event of major losses.

CRACKDOWN ON FOOD STAMP FRAUD: The Agriculture Department has been aggressively tackling food stamp fraud in recent years and the final farm bill will add to that.

It would step up efforts

to reduce fraud by retailers who sell food stamps, track SNAP trafficking and ensure that people who have died do not receive benefits.

The bill would also prohibit lottery winners and convicted murderers and sex offenders from receiving food stamps.

HEMP LAWS RELAXED: The bill would allow farmers to grow hemp, marijuana’s non-intoxicating cousin, in 10 states as research projects.

Those states already allow the growing of hemp, though federal drug law has blocked actual cultivation in most.

Hemp is often used in rope but has also been used to make clothing, mulch, foods, creams, soaps and lotions.

VICTORY FOR ANIMAL RIGHTS

GROUPS: The No. 1 farm bill priority for animal rights groups was to defeat a House provision that would have blocked an upcoming California law requiring all eggs sold in the state to come from hens that live in larger cages.

Livestock groups have fought the state law, which will be a major burden for egg producers in other states who use smaller cages and still want to sell eggs to the lucrative California market.

The animal rights groups won, and the provision blocking the California law didn’t make it into the final bill.

The animal rights groups also won language that will make it a federal crime to attend an animal fighting event or bring a child to one.

Ill. unions, nonprofits want higher caregiver pay The ASSOCIATED PRESS SPRINGFIELD – Union leaders and nonprofit groups are asking Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn to support an effort to increase wages for people who care for the developmentally disabled.

The efforts comes on the heels of Quinn’s push to increase Illinois’ minimum wage, from its current $8.25 to $10 an hour, and is likely to be a divisive issue ahead of the November election.

The “Care Campaign” plans to deliver an estimated 10,000 postcards to Quinn’s office on Tuesday to urge him to support the effort to increase caregivers’ wages. The plan would establish starting wages for such workers and increase the amount Illinois gives to nonprofit groups that have state contracts to care for the developmentally disabled.

Quinn spokeswoman Brooke Anderson did not immediately respond Monday

for comment as to whether the governor supports such an initiative.

A recent Illinois Association of Rehabilitation Facilities survey puts the wage of caregivers working at community-based developmental disability at $9.35 an hour, which it says leads to workers taking on overtime hours and second jobs or relying on food stamps.

Anders Lindall, spokesman for AFSCME, the state’s largest employee union, said

Illinois has not increased reimbursement for such nonprofit groups to correspond with the cost of living increase, causing wages to fall behind.

AFSCME represents some 5,000 workers employed by community-based nonprofit agencies, Lindall said.

State Sen. Dan Kotowski, chair of the Senate appropriations committee, noted “the playing field hasn’t been level for people who work for community-based agencies

versus those who work directly for state agencies.”

But some lawmakers argue that the state, which faces roughly a $6 billion backlog of bills this year, must deal with existing obligations before taking on new ones.

A tax increase approved in 2011 and billed as temporary is scheduled to roll back from 5 percent to 3.75 percent next January. If that happens, budget experts predict the state would have roughly $1.5 billion less to spend in 2015.

Al-Qaida breaks off ties with Syrian jihadis The ASSOCIATED PRESS CAIRO – Al-Qaida’s central leadership broke with one of its most powerful branch commanders in an apparent attempt to stem the deadly infighting that has erupted in Syria among the militant Islamic factions trying to bring down President Bashar Assad.

More broadly, the announcement Monday appeared to be a move by al-Qaida leader Ayman al-Za-

8WORLD BRIEFS Sochi city hall orders killing of stray dogs SOCHI, Russia – Thousands of stray dogs have been living amid the mud and rubble of Olympic construction sites, roaming the streets and snowy mountainsides, and begging for scraps of food.

But as the games drew near, authorities have turned to a company to catch and kill the animals so they don’t bother Sochi’s new visitors – or even wander into an Olympic event.

Alexei Sorokin, director general of pest control firm Basya Services, told The Associated Press that his company had a contract to exterminate the animals throughout the Olympics, which open Friday.

Animal activist Dina Filippova is among the opponents of the latest dog-culling plan, saying city authorities are using the Olympics as an excuse to cover an ongoing practice.

Italian officials will investigate Knox judge MILAN – Italy’s justice minister on Monday announced an investigation into comments to the Italian media made by the judge who read the guilty verdicts against Amanda Knox and her former Italian boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito in a murder case.

Annamaria Cancellieri said in a statement that she has asked the inspector general to make a “preliminary assessment” of the remarks published by Italian newspapers over the weekend.

The newspapers quoted Florence judge Alessandro Nencini as saying, among other things, that Sollecito’s decision not to testify on the witness stand deprived the defendant of a voice. The judge also commented on the difficulty of reaching a verdict, due to the vast amount of evidence as well as the intense media attention.

wahri to reassert the terror network’s prominence in the jihad movement across the Middle East amid the mushrooming of extremist groups during the upheaval of the past three years.

The dispute is between alQaida’s central leadership and a faction known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the head of al-Qaida’s branch in Iraq, formed the Islamic State last spring to expand his op-

erations into neighboring Syria, defying direct orders by al-Zawahri not to do so.

Al-Zawahri named a different group, the Nusra Front, as alQaida’s branch in Syria.

Now, the break is likely to spark a competition for resources and fighters between the two sides in what has become a civil war within a civil war.

The test for al-Zawahri’s influence will be whether his decision leads fighters to quit the Islamic State.

In Washington, which has viewed the increasing influence of Islamic extremism in Syria’s rebel movement with unease, State Department spokesman Jen Psaki noted that both the Islamic State and the Nusra Front are considered terrorist organizations.

As for al-Qaida’s attempt to distance itself from the Islamic State, she said: “There’s no way for me to evaluate what it will mean in the months ahead.”

Tours changing American views of Cuba policy

By PETER ORSI The Associated Press HAVANA – When President Barack Obama reinstated “people-to-people” travel to Cuba in 2011, the idea was that visiting Americans would act as cultural ambassadors for a U.S. constantly demonized in the island’s official media.

Two and a half years later, a survey shared exclusively with The Associated Press suggests the trips are not only improving Cubans’ views of Americans. They are also changing U.S. travelers’ opinions of the Caribbean nation for the better, and dimming their view of Washington policies that have long sought to pressure Cuba’s Communist leaders.

“I think U.S.-Cuban relations should be open. People should be talking to each other. People should be sharing,” said Ellen Landsberger, a 62-year-old New York obstetrician who recently visited on a people-to-people tour.

“We have this tiny little island that is no threat to the U.S. that we’re isolating from the world,” she said. “It doesn’t make sense.”

There’s surely significant self-selection among peopleto-people travelers; supporters of a hard-line policy against Cuba are unlikely to consider such a tour. And the people who run the trips tend to be more or less sympathetic toward Cuba, or at least to the idea of easing or lifting

Tourists traveling with the “people-to-people” program make a purchase Jan. 23 in a Cuban agricultural market in Havana, Cuba. the 52-year-old U.S. embargo, which could potentially be a boon to their business.

Still, the results of the multiple-choice survey by Friendly Planet Travel, a company based in suburban Philadelphia that promotes legal tours of Cuba, are eyecatching. Three-quarters said they were drawn by curiosity about life in a nation that has been off limits to most Americans for decades.

Before travel, the most prevalent view of Raul Castro’s government was “a re-

pressive Communist regime that stifles individuality and creativity,” 48 percent of respondents said. That fell to 19 percent after their visits, and the new most popular view, held by 30 percent of respondents, became the slightly more charitable “a failing government that is destined to fall.”

Most striking, 88 percent said the experience made them more likely than before to support ending the embargo against Cuba.

Peggy Goldman, president

of Friendly Planet Travel, said visitors are surprised at how hard it is to find many goods, even something as basic as an adhesive bandage.

Some leave Cuba blaming U.S. policy for the shortages – as the Cuban government does constantly, although analysts also point to a weak, inefficient and corruptionridden economic system as a key cause of scarcity.

“In day-to-day life, it’s so difficult for the average Cuban. When the travelers go and they see that, and they

experience it themselves, it makes sense that they say [the embargo] doesn’t make sense,” Goldman said.

Goldman acknowledged that her informal poll, which surveyed 423 Americans who visited Cuba in December, was not scientific.

But others in the industry tell a similar story.

“Some people go back and say they want to write letters to their senators,” said Jeff Philippe, a guide who has taken 34 groups to the island in a year for Insight Cuba.

Weather warmup should help lower prices District undecided on restoring band

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Band Director Alex Carlson (right) conducts during band practice Monday at Cary Junior High School. Even though this school year District 26 brought back art and music to daily instruction, it did not bring back the Cary Junior High Band. A private group that has been filling the gap wants the district to take over again.

In a conflict that has seen atrocities by all sides, the Islamic State has been particularly vicious.

It is believed to be dominated by thousands of nonSyrian jihadi fighters, and is seen by others in the rebellion as more concerned with venting sectarian hatreds and creating a transnational Islamic caliphate than with toppling Assad.

Since its creation, it has taken over swaths of territory in Syria, often imposing

that use propane to heat their properties, Bentson said.

“It takes their heating costs and almost triples them,” he said.

Bentson, whose company Conserv FS supplies propane to roughly 800 McHenry County residents, said once the cold weather subsides, propane prices should further come down to the normal price of $1.50 a gallon. But the possibility for extreme weather in the fall and again next winter could drive prices right back up, he said.

“I think we have to plan for the potential for more severe weather,” he said.

“We have to make sure the supply is going to be there.”

After the program was axed beginning the 2010-11 school year, along with other special classes, the Cary Band Association stepped in to provide weekly instrument lessons during the school day and practice as ensembles. The association pays for one fulltime employee and one parttime employee, who works with fifth-graders in the district.

To participate, fifth-graders are charged $300 and junior high students are charged $325. Some families cannot afford those fees, Sampson said.

Students on free or reduced lunch pay half-price fees, Carlson added. The fees pay for the two directors and room rental, among other things.

Continued from page A1

There are currently about 165 fifth- through eighth-graders in the program, which is about 25 fewer than last year, Carlson said.

Being in a band allows students to learn more than the basics of a music class such as more music notation and terminology. Band students also perform at assemblies, school graduations and in parades, Carlson said.

Whether the district brings the band back has yet to be determined, said Superintendent Brian Coleman.

The district was able to bring back art and music districtwide, and physical education for kindergarten through fifth-graders. At the junior high, physical education was expanded to sixth-graders, as seventh- and eighth-graders already had physical education.

Coleman said during a recent school board meeting that bringing back art and music was part of a two-year phase in.

“When we approach that as an administration, we look at how we can make the biggest impact on the greatest amount of kids,” Coleman said.

“That’s how we prioritize our programs.”

The district is in the process of putting together its staffing plan for next school year, and plans to present it at a finance committee meeting Feb. 18. Coleman said band is being considered for next school year.

“I can’t promise anything at this point, because we’re looking at it right now,” Coleman said.

“All of us here want to see the band program come back,” Coleman added.

Rutherford alleged at the news conference that the employee was put up to it by Republican rival Bruce Rauner, who has denied wrongdoing.

Rutherford was dogged by the issue over the weekend and again Monday, when he acknowledged the specific claims during a Chicago Tribune editorial board meeting that was broadcast on the Internet.

Rutherford denied both and reiterated his claim that an attorney once on Rauner’s payroll asked for $300,000 on the employee’s behalf to “walk away and keep it under wraps.” Rauner’s campaign has said the attorney briefly worked on a lease agreement for the campaign but there was no truth to the claims otherwise.

Still, the timing for Rutherford is critical. The start of early voting is about a month away, the Chenoa Republican has been trying to distinguish himself from the three other candidates, and political analysts are split on what fallout the events could have.

“It doesn’t matter what the nature of the scandal is,” said political strategist Doug O’Brien, who was chief aide to U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk while he was an Illinois congressman. “Dan Rutherford is now damaged goods.”

He said Rutherford will have to spend time leading up to his ads this week defending his name and reputation, particularly on the allegation of forcing an employee to do campaign work on state time, and that could lead to

problems with fundraising.

Although Rauner has raised by far the most money, at the end of the most recent quarter, Rutherford had more cash on hand than anyone in the GOP field.

Rutherford’s approach so far has been to cast himself as the only candidate who’s won statewide office. In 2010, Rutherford beat Democratic nominee Robin Kelly, who’s now a congresswoman.

He has touted his fiscal acumen by saying he cuts his office’s budget each year and talks about his frugality on the campaign trail. He tells prospective voters that his mom had saved card stock from previous campaigns to reuse in his gubernatorial run.

His ads, coinciding with the start of the Olympics, will incorporate those ideas and be “positive,” campaign spokeswoman Judy Pardonnet said.

The only other gubernatorial candidate on television is Rauner, a wealthy businessman who’s raised millions on the campaign trail.

He has portrayed himself as a political outsider who can change things in Springfield. State Sen. Bill Brady, who won the GOP nomination in 2010, said he has learned lessons for his second time around. State Sen. Kirk Dillard has played up his experience as chief of staff for former Gov. Jim Edgar.

But others said that Rutherford has a long track record in state government, including nearly 18 years as a state lawmaker, that would be difficult to undo in a short time period.

Contract transparency Gov. Pat Quinn, in his State of the State address last week, described his initiatives for jobs, education and the economy.

In a speech delivered five years to the day after he assumed office from disgraced former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, Quinn briefly mentioned the ethical woes he inherited back then.

“First, we restored integrity to state government, passing a strong new ethics For the record code, campaign finance reform and We support a bill that would a new constituallow taxpayers to learn details tional amendment of proposed public employee to allow voters contracts before they are to recall any governor guilty of ratified. corruption,” the governor said.

That sentence amounted to Quinn’s only reference, such as it was, to governmental openness and accountability in Illinois.

We believe more work needs to be done.

One area where greater openness is needed deals with contracts negotiated through collective bargaining between public employee unions and units of government, such as school districts, cities, and the like.

Currently, units of government believe they are not required to release such contracts until after they have been approved.

After a tentative agreement is reached, negotiators for both sides usually take the stance that it’s none of the public’s business what the contract contains. The taxpayers who foot the bill traditionally aren’t allowed to see it until the union members ratify it and the board or council casts its vote in the affirmative.

Such a closed, clubby process sticks in our craw.

After all, the need for secrecy – if one even recognizes that need – no longer exists after a tentative contract is reached. The negotiating has ended, and neither side can gain an advantage from disclosure.

And certainly, after the public employees vote to ratify, the school district gains no advantage by keeping the details under wraps.

In recent years, we have made the point as various local governments went about the contract negotiation process, most recently with Crystal Lake-based District 155. Voters were kept in the dark until both sides approved a new teacher contract that will cost taxpayers millions of dollars more than the previous one.

That lack of transparency is why we support legislation filed last year by state Rep. Jeanne Ives, a Republican from Wheaton.

Ives’ bill would require all newly negotiated contracts between unions and public-sector employers (school districts, cities, counties, the state, etc.) to be posted on the public body’s website for at least 14 days before any action is taken.

Further, after at least 14 days, the public entity would be required to convene an open meeting and receive public comments before a vote is taken.

Such a system would help elected board members, public employees, and the public better understand the contents of proposed contracts. The 14-day window would also allow members of the public to find out how much additional money those tentative contracts would cost them.

Unfortunately, Ives’ bill is stuck in a Democratic-controlled committee, where it will likely never emerge without help.

We call on area representatives to sign on as co-sponsors to Rep. Ives’ contract transparency bill.

We further call on them to do what they can to advance it, and along with it the cause of openness and accountability in government.

Imperial presidency Americans want action, President Barack Obama said in his State of the Union address, and if a recalcitrant Congress won’t act, he will.

That’s as clear a declaration of an “imperial presidency” as any we’ve heard since a disgraced Richard Nixon stated to interviewer David Frost that, if the president does something, it is, by definition, legal.

All presidents lay out ambitious agendas in their State of the Union addresses. The struggle then becomes rallying support among congressmen and senators for those initiatives.

But Obama said bluntly that, if he cannot get Congress to act on his agenda, he’ll bypass the legislative branch altogether and enact his proposals through executive orders.

“America does not stand still and neither do I,” Obama declared.

Unbelievably, Obama’s declaration was received with thunderous applause from the very legislators whose power he pledged to usurp.

If we had wanted to be ruled by an “imperial president”, we shouldn’t have bothered to throw out King George III. The Eagle-Tribune (North Andover, Mass.)

8IT’S YOUR WRITE TV scam

Don’t need larger library

To the Editor: Please beware that there is a scam out there to remove you from your TV provider.

The person calls saying they are from your TV provider (i.e. Dish, Comcast, etc.) and they will give you a new black box and lower your monthly cost by $20. Someone can be out there the next day to do this for you. They give you an 800 number to call if you have questions. The next day, there is a subcontractor at your door. He has no ID from your provider. “I’m just a subcontractor.” We told him we’d wait for a technician to come; we’d call them.

In calling the 800 number, it’s not your provider. In calling our provider, he informed us they were going to swipe us from our provider to them.

This means you’ve broken your contract with your provider. This is costly and can lead to loads of problems.

Beware!

To the Editor: Regarding Brian Pappalardo’s letter of Jan. 11, does Crystal Lake really need a bigger library? Consider the following.

1. The library is not growing.

Circulation is lower today than it was three years ago.

2. The meeting rooms are not overbooked. The Ames Meeting Room is booked just 32 percent of the time; the computer lab, 5 percent. With the growth of eBooks, do you think the library will need more space or less space in the future?

3. Almost a third of the library’s circulation is movies and video games – more than 325,000 items last year. While Redbox rents movies for $1.25 (and makes a profit), it costs the taxpayers more than $4 for the library to circulate the same movie, or $1 million more than if they used Redbox. For what it costs the library to circulate movies, it could literally pay for a Netflix subscription for every family in Crystal Lake, and that is not an exaggeration.

Rage, dangling modifiers from U.S. Rep. For a human named after a compiler of fairy tales, Rep. Michael Grimm, R-N.Y., seems to have a lot of anger.

“Let me be clear to you. You ever do that to me again, I’ll throw you off this [bleeping] balcony,” he informed reporter Michael Scotto last Tuesday night after Scotto tried to ask about a federal investigation into Grimm’s campaign fundraising. He added: “I’ll break you in half. Like a boy.”

Talk about rage and dangling modifiers.

Does Grimm routinely break boys in half?

Do boys of Grimm’s acquaintance commonly break reporters in half? Who’s doing what to whom here?

Grimm appears to have a long and vibrant history of yelling. Not just at reporters, though Marin Cogan wrote at National Journal that he once called to yell at her and seemed extraordinarily angry. But at other people as well, as the New Yorker wrote in 2011.

Naturally, this story blew up, because which would you rather write about: another State of the Union address or someone vividly threatening a reporter on a balcony?

And then there is the apology – er, apologies, since the first one went over like a lead-filled balloon flung off a balcony.

Vivid public threats are always hard to apologize for, especially when there’s video.

They stick in the memory. The standard political apology (I Am Sorry That The Thing I Said Made You Unexpectedly Angry, My Twitter Was Hacked, I Had No Idea That My Staff Did That, I Remember Nothing But I Love America So Much, That Money Came To Me As A Total Surprise, My Wife Did It, I Mistook The Person In Question For My Wife, or even the routine groveling I Am Nothing, You Are Wind And Water And

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

VIEWS Alexandra Petri Sky, I Am Unworthy Of Your Love, Jodie Darrrrling, Let Me Prove Worthy Of Your Love) doesn’t quite fit the occasion.

The best kind of apology is the one in which you take no responsibility at all.

And, bless him, Grimm tried it.

His first statement, according to Scotto’s network, NY1, read: “I was extremely annoyed because I was doing NY1 a favor by rushing to do their interview first in lieu of several other requests. The reporter knew that I was in a hurry and was only there to comment on the State of the Union, but insisted on taking a disrespectful and cheap shot at the end of the interview, because I did not have time to speak off-topic. I verbally took the reporter to task and told him off, because I expect a certain level of professionalism and respect, especially when I go out of my way to do that reporter a favor. I doubt that I am the first member of Congress to tell off a reporter, and I am sure I won’t be the last.”

Unfortunately, this is not how reporters work. Or, for that matter, how apologies work.

A “certain level of professionalism and respect”? He threatened to throw Scotto off a balcony! What is this, the climax of “Return of the Jedi”?

There is really no spin potential here.

“You did not hear how I gently whispered ‘a cake’ between the words ‘you’ and ‘in half’!

I knew you would love half a cake!” “No, no, ‘I’ll throw you off the [bleeping] balcony’ wasn’t a threat, it was a manly compliment!

If he’d been more of a man, he’d have known that. You know how Tina Fey told Amy Poehler there was a special place in hell for her? This was similar to that.”

Grimm had to apologize again, and the second time went better. It would, of course, have been hard to go worse.

“I was wrong. I shouldn’t have allowed my emotions to get the better of me and lose my cool,” Grimm wrote in a statement. “I have apologized to Michael Scotto, which he graciously accepted, and will be scheduling a lunch soon. In the weeks and months ahead, I’ll be working hard for my constituents on issues like flood insurance that is so desperately needed in my district post Sandy.”

“I’m sure my Italian mother is going to be yelling at me saying ‘You weren’t raised that way,’ “ Grimm also noted.

Some say the indignation here is overblown. Reporters are adults, and we can handle ourselves. After all, we’ve watched “House of Cards.” You are supposed to get yelled at while standing near ledges. It is a sign you are doing your job.

Still, on camera? Like this? An apology was definitely owed.

The good news is that the reporter is not pressing charges. The bad news is that the first thing that comes up when you hunt online for Grimm is that he refused to answer a reporter’s questions about some campaign finance investigations and then threatened to throw him off a balcony.

Way to stay on message, everyone.

FIRE DESTROYS DELIVERY TRUCK WOODSTOCK – A fire destroyed a mail delivery truck south of Woodstock on Route 47, the Woodstock Fire Rescue District said.

Firefighters were called about 4:15 p.m. Monday to Route 47 between Lucas Road and Route 176 for the fire that started in the engine compartment of the truck, said Lt. Mike Brinkman.

Before firefighters arrived, the letter carrier was able to remove all the mail from the truck, Brinkman said.

The fire was under control in about two minutes, but the truck was a total loss, Brinkman said.

No one was hurt.

Village mulls demo request Algonquin to vote on petition to tear down three Old Town buildings

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – A group of property owners who have land along Algonquin Road want to tear down three buildings in the Old Town

District.

The village board is scheduled to vote Tuesday on the request to tear down two commercial buildings and a garage at 107-111 W. Algonquin Road.

In December, the village’s

Historic Commission voted to deny the petition to demolish the buildings. The commission cited the historical significance of the buildings.

All three of the buildings are in “very poor” condition and have numerous building

code violations, according to village documents.

The siding, trim, windows and railings, among other things, all need repair or replacement.

Snowfall continues McHenry County is expected to see more winter weather Tuesday night. The National Weather Service is predicting McHenry County will see 1 to 3 inches of snow beginning Tuesday afternoon and continuing into Wednesday morning. Areas south of the county near the Interstate 80 corridor could see as much as 6 inches.

The snow will increase in intensity after 6 p.m. Tuesday, said National Weather Service Meteorologist Mark Raltzer. The snow is likely to taper off early Wednesday morning, he added. There also is a possibility for snow Friday night and into the weekend, but it is too early to predict the exact path of the storm, Raltzer said.

Harvard police chief will retire in July D-300 starts leader search

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN

sshinneman@shawmedia.com

HARVARD – Anyone planning Dan Kazy-Garey a party for his 30th anniversary with the Harvard Police Department might need to reprint their banner to include the word “retirement.”

The police chief since 2007 will retire in July, ending a relationship with the department that he started as a patrol officer.

Kazy-Garey cited his maxed-out pension as his reason for retiring. He said he will explore other profes-

sional opportunities, including those within law enforcement, after his retirement.

“There’s no further benefit to staying any longer. Unfortunately, it’s the downside of the pension system,” Dan h e s a i d . “ I t Kazy-Garey doesn’t force you out, but it effectively does.”

Kazy-Garey, 52, has a current salary of about $123,000.

His last day in the office is scheduled for May 2, but

he will remain the department’s chief until his official retirement July 3, City Administrator Dave Nelson said.

Kazy-Garey’s 30-year anniversary with the department is this spring.

He has accrued 51 vacation days and 60 sick days, which he will begin to use in May, but they will stretch past his July retirement, Nelson said.

City officials haven’t determined whether their search for a replacement will extend outside the department.

“That is going to be hammered out within the next month,” Nelson said.

Nelson lauded Kazy-Garey as a dedicated city employee who was appreciated by his community “even though he gave them tickets one time or another, I’m sure,” he joked.

Kazy-Garey said he appreciated the city for the opportunities he’s received through the years and thanked Nelson and Mayor Jay Nolan for their dedication and support.

“The city has been a fantastic employer,” he said.

for the finance and utility departments, replacing an obsolete system that can be “barely supported anymore,” Morefield said.

CARPENTERSVILLE – The search for District 300’s new superintendent will begin next week with a focus group that allows members of the public to share their vision on the ideal candidate to lead the Carpentersville-based school district.

But parents and other district residents may want to book the event – set for Feb. 12 – in their calendars now since it will likely be the only opportunity for the public to contribute to the search.

“The focus group is the main avenue, although we gladly will listen to anyone who feels strongly about the search,” board member Joe Stevens said.

Street repairs top McHenry’s list of priorities

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Repaving about two miles of city streets is at the top of a staffprepared priority list as the McHenry City Council heads into its annual budgeting process after approving a flat levy in December.

The first step in that process is putting together a five-year capital improvement plan, which includes

all projects and equipment purchases with a price tag of at least $10,000, City Administrator Derik Morefield said.

A draft of the plan was submitted to the council for discussion Monday evening.

All of the items of the plan won’t actually get funded, but it helps the city keep different programs and priorities on its radar, Morefield said.

Fifteen projects – across the administrative, police, streets and parks depart-

ments – are recommended to be considered for this upcoming fiscal year, which starts May 1. (The number of projects jumps to 20 if the street improvement projects are identified separately.)

They include: • $450,000 for the city’s street program, which would involve resurfacing about two miles of the city’s roughest roads.

• Purchasing and installing new billing software

DeKALB: POLICE STILL SEEK OTHERS

CRYSTAL LAKE: RECOGNITION

Bond reduction denied in meth ring

MCC seeks distinguished alumni nominations

By ANDREA AZZO aazzo@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Four DeKalb men jailed on suspicion of conspiring to cook methamphetamine last year will remain in custody after a judge Monday denied their requests for a bond reduction.

Keith B. Kifer, 48, Joseph E. Waldrop, 30, Greg L. Hurst, 52, and Michael J. Dumiak, 30, are accused of buying medicinal pseudoephedrine with the intent to manufacture methamphetamine, court records show. If convicted of the most serious charge they face, they could be sentenced to up to seven years in prison.

Each of the four remained jailed Monday on $50,000 bond after Presiding Judge Robbin Stuckert chose not to release them on their own recognizance, citing their prior criminal histories, some of which occurred in other states. They would have to post $5,000 bail to be released.

Prosecutors allege the four

men were participants in a methamphetamine ring centered at Travel Inn in DeKalb.

Three people were arrested when police discovered the alleged meth-cooking operation in October, including Thomas Wilkinson, 29, of DeKalb, who prosecutors accuse of being the ringleader. Wilkinson has denied the charges and is next due in court Feb. 18.

Jeremy Sebek, 28, of the 400 block of Meadowlark Circle, Sandwich, was also charged with methamphetamine conspiracy and methamphetamine conspiracy precursor.

He could enter a plea agreement in a court hearing Feb. 26, records show.

On Jan. 24, police arrested Carlos R. Tomas, 24, of the 1200 block of South Madison Street in Marion, for the same charges. He is due in court Tuesday. Dumiak was also charged with possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia Oct. 30, three days after local police discovered a methamphet-

amine lab in a room at Travel Inn, 1116 W. Lincoln Highway, authorities said. Kifer, Waldrop, Hurst and Dumiak are next due in court Feb. 13.

Police are still looking for eight other people they believe are involved with methamphetamine manufacturing. One of the men, Jerry W. Whitt, 33, whose address is not known to authorities, could face between six and 30 years in prison if convicted of aggravated participation in methamphetamine manufacturing.

Warrants were issued Jan. 17 for the following: • Jennifer A. Simpson, 32, address unknown • William J. Buell, 32, address unknown • Allan H. Brown, 46, address unknown • Corey G. Lindquist, 28, of the 600 block of Eletson Drive, Crystal Lake • Matthew J. McDonald, 21, of the 300 block of Spring Avenue, Aurora • John A. Melvin, 33, address unknown.

District 112.

District board members hope to have a new superintendent named and hired before Bregy leaves for the Highland Park area at the end of May, Stevens said.

Unlike other area school systems, district officials don’t plan on hosting future public events as the search unfolds and the pool of candidates is narrowed to a handful of finalists.

Woodstock District 200 recently hosted open candidate forums for the three finalists vying to replace its retiring superintendent.

But that public overture can deter some job seekers since their current employers would know they are applying for a new job, Stevens said.

“We want a broader candidate pool,” he said.

Anyone living in the district can attend the Feb. 12 focus group to share what skills and characteristics they would like to see in the district’s next superintendent.

The one-hour event begins at 7 p.m. inside the district’s Central Office, 300 Cleveland Ave., Carpentersville.

Residents also can take an anonymous survey on the district’s website – www.d300.org – to share their thoughts on the search.

“We don’t think we need a major shift with a new superintendent,” Stevens said. “We just want to confirm that by the focus groups we are running and make sure everyone else thinks the same.”

Projects include Route 31, 120 intersection • REPAIRS Continued from page B1 would be about $10.6 million with $9.6 million being covered by non-general fund dollars.

Last year, staff proposed about $500,000 worth of projects, and the increase this year comes from the street program.

The last time the city funded a street improvement program was during fiscal 201112, Morefield said.

“If we don’t start addressing it, it’s not going to get any better,” he told the council.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The Friends of McHenry County College Foundation seeks nominations for the MCC Distinguished Alumni Award to recognize MCC alumni who are making their communities a better place to live and work.

The Distinguished Alumni Award recognizes the accomplishments of notable McHenry County College alumni who have demonstrated exceptional achievement in their chosen profession and have made a positive impact on their community.

The award winners will be recognized at the MCC Distinguished Alumni Ceremony at McHenry County College on April 17.

“Many MCC alumni have gone on to have success-

“It’s not going away.”

The city may need to start with the street program and work around it, so that it doesn’t keep getting pushed back, Morefield said after the meeting.

Several major street projects also are lined up for this year, many with the local portion being covered by motor fuel tax dollars, a funding stream which is also eaten up by road salt purchases.

The projects include improving the Route 31 and 120 intersection and surrounding area; McCullom Lake Road from Route 31 to the northern city limits just north of Lake-

wood Road; Bull Valley Road from Draper Road to Curran Road; and Knox Drive, connecting Municipal Drive and Charles J. Miller Road.

Alderman Andy Glab questioned why the proposed traffic signal at West Crystal Lake Road and Dartmoor Drive was pushed off until fiscal 2018-19.

The traffic study that found conditions did not warrant the installation of a traffic signal was done when school was out, he said, adding that if it had been done when school was in session, it probably would have found that the counts would have been met.

ful careers and continue to make a difference in the community,” said Matt Lemke, Friends of MCC Foundation board of directors president. “This award allows MCC to celebrate their achievements and the role that MCC has played in their successes.”

The criteria for nomination includes: former MCC student who has completed a minimum of three credit hours, achieved success of an exceptional nature within his or her chosen field or profession, and has made a positive impact on his or her community through leadership and/or volunteering.

To be considered for the award, the candidate must agree to accept the award at the MCC Distinguished Alumni Ceremony and agree to return to campus at least once within the year

to be a guest speaker and/or participate in a student engagement activity.

The deadline for nomination forms is midnight March 3.

Each nomination form must be accompanied by a current resume of the candidate.

Nominees can self-nominate or be nominated by someone else. If self-nominating, at least one letter of reference must be submitted.

If available, MCC welcomes the additional submissions of up to three letters of recommendation.

NORTHWEST HERALD

The inside has mold in the basement and roof leaks.

The village has cited the property for numerous code violations and levied fines through the administrative adjudication process.

“Ultimately however, village staff cannot physically do maintenance and repair improvements for a property owner, and so this property has continued to have a blighting effect on downtown and continues to consume substantial staff time and resources,” according to a memo written by Russell Farnum, community development director.

The building also has many structural problems and there are leaky pipes and cracks in the foundation. Repairs to the buildings could cost $100,000, according to village documents.

“Improving the structures from their current condition to be viable for business use would be very costly and it would still likely be a challenge to attract tenants given the abundance of existing commercial space downtown,” Farnum wrote.

Facade changes to the properties have taken place over the course of time and have no architectural signif-

icance, village documents say.

There are no plans for the site other than to remove the buildings and sod/seed the property.

Any plan for site redevelopment would need Village Board approval.

The villages’ downtown redevelopment plan calls for future redevelopment as a multistory commercial and/ or residential development.

Joseph Yeung, an attorney for the LUUCK Partnership, called the Historic Commission’s decision to deny the demolition arbitrary.

“It lacks any legitimate reason and it does not meet the commission’s mission because the owners’ properties do not have any of the historical and architectural significance or value for preservation,” Yeung wrote in a letter to the village.

“The denial fails to recognize the potential damages to the economic interests, the health and safety of the property owners and the public in the village.”

Yeung told the Historic Commission in December that the owners have been unable to sell the property they bought in 2005 for $375,000. The owners have a list price of $359,000. The LUUCK partnership bought the property to rent it out for supplemental retirement

income.

However the property turned out to be a “money pit” for the owners, Yeung said.

At the Historic Commission’s meeting in December, Chairman Jeff Jolitz said the oldest building on the property was built in 1857 and all three of the buildings are part of the few remaining structures of Algonquin’s first business district.

He argued the buildings should be preserved and that it’s not the commission’s responsibility to help a property owner who may have made a bad investment.

Tom Green, who lives on LaFox River Drive, objected to the demolition request and said the buildings are part of the Old Town neighborhood’s streetscape, and vintage structures usually receive more care.

Historic Commission member Edward Mudra said the property needed “old-fashioned elbow grease” and routine maintenance such as pulling weeds, washing windows, power washing and paint to eliminate the blighted look and make the buildings presentable.

He added it would be “a shame” for these buildings to be demolished because of lack of maintenance and repair, according to commission minutes.

ST. CHARLES: FESTIVAL

Centuries of military history presented at Pheasant Run

By BRENDA SCHORY bschory@shawmedia.com ST. CHARLES – Roman swords, Civil War muskets, helmets and boots from World Wars I and II all came together Saturday, part of the three-day Military History Fest at Pheasant Run in St. Charles.

Director Mike Bollow said between vendors and the public, about 1,500 people attended. The oldest re-enactments date from Roman times, and the most recent is the Gulf War, he said.

“What’s nice about this event is, it’s the only time all re-enactors from various time periods come together,” Bollow said. “Because every traditional re-enactment is only Colonial, or only World War II or only Civil War. We see that the things that are similar between our hobbies are actually greater than the things that divide us.”

In addition to vendors selling period garb and artifacts spanning centuries of human conflict, enthusiasts and re-enactors in painstakingly accurate, detailed uniforms were everywhere – a kind of wartime see and be seen event.

Perhaps the most historically recognizable was President Abraham Lincoln, actually Max Daniels, a re-enactor and educator from Wheaton.

“I think there are several ways of learning history, obviously,” Daniels said.

“Through textbooks, through visuals. But I think another alternative way is visualization

“What’s nice about this event is, it’s the only time all re-enactors from various time periods come together.”

Military History Fest Director Mike Bollow by personalization. If you can actually talk to the person – I think that is also a very good way to learn. What my wife and I do, as living historians, is go to schools and let the children learn by talking to the persons that we represent.”

Susan Spencer of Ontario, Canada, wore the blue dress uniform of a Canadian Nursing Sister serving in the Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps in World War I. “They were not allowed on the battlefield,” Spencer said.

“They were support to the doctors who were on the battlefield, the stretcher-bearers and medics.”

Stephen Shellenbean of Merrimack, N.H., was clad in the feathered hat and scored woolens of a 16th century landsknechte – German for servant or knight of the land who fought in wars from 1475 and 1535.

“They were soldiers who would be raised by a local barony or duchy, they would fight for a season and then they would go back to their lives, whether they were peasants, or millers or local townspeople,” Shellenbean said. “They would muster in early in the spring and spend a month or two months training before

going out and fighting. They would be fighting either specific wars, or sometimes they would be hired out to other duchies or other countries to fight on their behalf.”

The clothing was predominantly wool and linen, first cut to allow soldiers to move more easily while fighting, then becoming a style so the bottom layers of color would show through the top layers, he said.

Generally, they fought with a 14-foot to 20-foot spear called a pike used against cavalry.

“They would fight in blocks of 300 to 400 men with these huge spears, and they were like a moving pointy wall – like a fortress on the battlefield,” Shellenbean said. “Horses would charge and get drilled.

Pretty messy stuff.”

Martin Shaw of Plainfield wore the uniform of France from the period of 1789 to 1815, with its blue sleeves, red cuffs and collar, white center and blue hat of the 21st Legion.

The character he created, Charles Chevelier, serves in the French Army.

“I am at this event to portray a French revolutionary, a Napoleonic soldier of Napoleon’s Grand Army,” Shaw said.

Shaw said he is writing a

series that takes place in 1806 in the Fourth Coalition where the French defeated the Prussians.

“Napoleonic history has always interested me,” Shaw said. “And since I’m writing it, I felt I had to become a soldier of this era to get the feel for it.

My character does infantry and cavalry. I have a friend who says one of these days he’ll let me ride a horse and get that feeling as well.”

Snow Wolf Wagner of Ontario said he belongs to the Ojibwa and Oddawa tribes.

For this event, he dressed as an 1760s warrior in the French and Indian War period.

His nephew, Nagamootawa Kaik Kaik of Indianapolis, wore what the Ojibwa and Shawnee would have worn, and friend Steve Horrall, of Monroe City, Ind., dressed as Potawatomi, both for the War of 1812.

With leggings, boots, feathers and nose rings, Wagner said they did their research to be as authentic as possible. “The Potawatomi, the Ojibwa and the Oddawa were one tribe, one confederation known as The Three Fires,” Wagner said.

“The reason we do this is partially because people don’t understand that the native people are still here ... and the native portrayals are done so poorly,” Wagner said. “What we’ve done is go to these events and portray how we would have lived 200 years ago. We want to make sure our side of the history is being taught.”

Auto sales cool

Martin Chevrolet seeks approval for expansion

Ford, GM, Toyota fall with January temperatures

By DEE-ANN DURBIN and TOM KRISHER The Associated Press DETROIT – Frigid temperatures and snowy weather generally kept buyers away from auto showrooms last month, with Ford, General Motors, Toyota and Volkswagen all reporting declines from a year ago.

But Chrysler, Nissan, Subaru and Hyundai dealers were happy. Sales ran counter to the thermometer and were up for all four brands.

January is usually a slow month for auto sales, but the polar vortex likely slowed things even more. Industry analysts predicted little or no sales gains last month compared with a year ago. Ford said the industry saw double-digit sales gains in the West, where the weather was good, but big declines in other regions.

Dealers saw the impact firsthand.

“When you go three days when no one comes on the lot, it’s a little tough to be up to average,” said Timothy “Bruce” Detweiler, dealer principal of a Buick-GMC dealer in Ma-

sontown, Pa., about 50 miles south of Pittsburgh. Temperatures there were near or below zero for several straight days.

GM said its sales dropped 12 percent compared with the same month a year earlier, while Ford and Toyota each were down 7 percent. Volkswagen slumped 19 percent.

But Chrysler’s U.S. sales advanced 8 percent, while Nissan’s rose nearly 12 percent. Subaru saw a 19 percent increase, and Hyundai reported its best January ever with sales up 1 percent.

Chrysler, Nissan and Subaru were boosted by new vehicles. Chrysler notched its best January in six years, with Jeep brand sales up 38 percent on the strength of the new Cherokee small SUVs. Nissan sales gained 11.8 percent, led by the redesigned Rogue small crossover SUV with sales up 55 percent. And sales of Subaru’s redesigned Forester SUV jumped 64 percent over last January.

Weather disrupted production at several auto plants last month, even

as far south as Montgomery, Ala., where a Hyundai factory was down for two days.

GM predicted an industrywide annual selling rate of 15.3 million for the month, just a touch above the 15.2 million rate in January 2013. Sales of most of its high-volume models were down. The Chevy Silverado pickup, GM’s top-selling vehicle, saw sales shrink by more than 18 percent.

But like many analysts, GM remained optimistic for the year, predicting total U.S. sales in a range from 16 million to 16.5 million. That’s back to pre-recession levels and better than last year’s 15.6 million.

Ford blamed the weather for its sales decline. Sales of the Ford Focus small car plunged 26 percent from last January, while sales of the F-Series pickup were flat. Ford’s Lincoln luxury brand was the bright spot, with a 43 percent increase. Sales of the Lincoln MKZ sedan, which went on sale last spring, more than quadrupled over last January’s anemic levels.

Feds want cars to be able to talk

By JOAN LOWY The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Your car might see a deadly crash coming even if you don’t, the government says, so officials are moving to require automakers to equip new vehicles with technology that lets them warn each other when they’re plunging toward peril.

The action, still a couple of years off, has “gamechanging potential” to cut crashes, deaths and injuries, officials said Monday.

A radio beacon would continually transmit a vehicle’s position, heading, speed and other information. Cars would receive the same information back from other vehicles, and a

vehicle’s computer would alert the driver to an impending collision. Some systems may automatically brake to avoid an accident if manufacturers choose to include that option.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which has been working with automakers on the technology for the past decade, estimates vehicleto-vehicle communications could prevent up to 80 percent of accidents that don’t involve drunken drivers or mechanical failure.

The technology holds major potential to prevent crashes in the first place, while the government’s focus until now has been on ensuring accidents are survivable, David Fried-

man, the head of the safety administration, said at a news conference.

Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said the Obama administration decided to announce its intention to require the technology in new vehicles to “send a strong signal to the [automotive industry] that we believe the wave of the future is vehicle-to-vehicle technology.”

However, it still will be a least several years and perhaps longer before manufacturers would have to put the technology in vehicles, officials said. The safety administration plans to issue a report later this month on the results of its research, and then the public and automakers will have 90 days to comment.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Martin Chevrolet is seeking permission from the Crystal Lake City Council to expand its Route 14 dealership.

Martin Chevrolet is planning phased renovations to its property at 5220 Northwest Highway, according to city documents. A drive-through car wash would be added to the west side of the service building, and additions are planned to the existing sales building. A new entry monument and three flag poles also have been proposed. Several of the buildings on the site would be connected as part of the overhaul.

The dealership is asking the city for a special use permit amendment and several variations. The Crystal Lake Planning and Zoning Commission previously voted to approve the request. The Crystal Lake City Council could consider the request at its meeting at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall, 100 W. Woodstock St.

McHenry Chamber to host expo

After that, regulators will begin drafting a proposal to require automakers to equip new vehicles with the technology. That process could take months to years to complete, but Foxx said it is his intention to issue the proposal before President Barack Obama leaves office.

“It will change driving as we know it over time,” said Scott Belcher, president and CEO of the Intelligent Transportation Society of America. “Over time, we’ll see a reduction in crashes. Automobile makers will rethink how they design and construct cars because they will no longer be constructing cars to survive a crash, but building them to avoid a crash.”

McHENRY – The McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce will host the “Life is a Journey” Expo from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

March 15 at McHenry High School West Campus, 4724 W. Crystal Lake Road.

The expo will feature colorcoded rows named Leisure Lane, Senior Street, Pet Parkway, Health & Fitness Fairway, Financial Frontage, Woman’s Walkway, Children’s Court, Home Highway and Automotive Avenue, according to a news release.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Crystal Lake Rib House and Catering Co. is preparing to move to a new, larger location this month.

The well-known restaurant will be relocated to 540 E. Terra Cotta Ave., across the street from Countryside Flower Shop, Nursery and Garden Center, owner Dave Faccone said.

Most of the construction work at the new location has been finished. Faccone plans to start serving food there in the second week of February. The new 7,000-square-foot restaurant has room for a full-service bar and lounge and more seating. It should make wait times shorter for customers.

“We’ve needed more space for years,” Faccone said.

He said the restaurant will continue to serve the same barbecue that has earned it top honors in Northwest Herald reader polls. For information, visit www.crystallakeribhouse. com or call 815-477-3600.

LENO: 2ND ‘TONIGHT EXIT’ IS QUITS FOR LATE-NIGHT

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Tuesday, February 4, 2014 • Section B • Page 6

Jay Leno, as affably efficient backstage as he is in front of the camera, avoids waxing poetic about his 22-year “Tonight Show” run that draws to a close Thursday.

Instead, he relies on numbers to tell the story. Leno’s tenure is second only to Johnny Carson’s 30 years; “Tonight” was No. 1 among viewers when he took it over and will be when he hands it off to Jimmy Fallon; he’ll have taped more shows than any predecessor, Carson included, with the final and 4,610th one.

BUZZWORTHY

Official says heroin packets found in Hoffman’s apartment Tests have confirmed there was heroin in at least some of the scores of plastic packets in the New York City apartment where Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead, a law enforcement official said Monday, and authorities are working to determine whether the drug was mixed or tainted with anything else.

Medical examiners have not yet made an official determination of the cause of the 46-year-old actor’s death, but police have been investigating it as a suspected overdose. Hoffman was found in a bathroom with a syringe in his arm, law enforcement officials have said.

A few details have begun to sketch a picture of his final day and the circumstances in which he was found in his apartment in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village on Sunday. And questions have swirled about whether Hoffman’s death could be linked to a potent blend of heroin and synthetic morphine that has been tied to deaths elsewhere, though as yet there are no official findings pointing to that scenario.

“The direction of the investigation is going to depend, in large part, on the findings of the medical examiner and the findings of the lab tests,” chief police spokesman Stephen Davis said.

An autopsy began Monday, but results weren’t expected until at least Tuesday, the city medical examiners’ office said.

A friend had spoken to him by phone around 9 p.m. Saturday, in the last contact investigators are aware of anyone having with him, a law enforcement official said. The official said the actor’s door was double-locked when his body was found around 11:30 a.m. the next day by the same friend and Hoffman’s assistant.

Judge says Chris Brown should remain in treatment

Beckham to discuss effort to bring Major League Soccer team to Miami

A judge turned down a prosecutor’s motion Monday to send Chris Brown to jail, citing the R&B singer’s continued good behavior and progress in a rehabilitation program.

Superior Court Judge James R. Brandlin said probation officials reported that Brown is making good progress in treatment and must remain in the program unless he is given permission by the court or his probation officer.

Brown was sentenced to three months of in-patient rehab in November after the singer was arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault over an altercation several weeks earlier in Washington, D.C. A prosecutor sought to have Brown thrown in jail during Monday’s hearing and called for a full probation violation hearing, which would have resulted in evidence about the D.C. case being presented to Brandlin. Los Angeles Deputy District Attorney Mary Murray cited the new case as the basis for removing Brown from rehab and placing him in custody.

David Beckham will take part in a news conference Wednesday to discuss his progress in trying to bring a Major League Soccer expansion team to Miami.

MLS Commissioner Don Garber and Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez also will attend the session, which was announced Monday. The league has discussed placing its next two expansion teams in Miami and Atlanta. Expansion in Miami is contingent on securing a financing plan and location for a new stadium. Beckham has scouted possible sites and is seeking investors to assist with startup costs such as stadium construction and player acquisitions. Among those who might become involved is Beckham’s friend, LeBron James, who has had recent conversations with the retired soccer star about bringing a team to Miami.

“It’s looking very promising,” James said Monday.

“Hopefully they can go in the right direction as we all planned. It’s a great place for soccer.”

Muti to lead Chicago Symphony Orchestra through 2020

For the fourth time in five years, the Super Bowl has set a record for the most-watched television event in U.S. history, drawing 111.5 million viewers even though the Seattle Seahawks’ 43-8 victory over the Denver Broncos wasn’t really competitive.

The ratings record is further evidence of how live events are becoming dependable and valuable properties for broadcast television at a time the audience is fragmenting and ratings for regular entertainment shows continue to fall.

“Big-event television is a great way for people to have a communal event, to talk about it socially and to talk about it as a group,” said Bill Wanger, executive vice president for programming and research at Fox Sports. “You see that in the Super Bowl numbers of the past four or five years.

Maestro Riccardo Muti has extended his contract with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra through 2020.

Muti has been the symphony’s music director since 2010. On Monday, the orchestra and Muti announced he has signed another five-year contract. His first contract started in 2010 and runs until 2015. His new contract runs from 2015 to 2020. The contract calls for Muti to conduct at least 10 weeks of Chicago Symphony Orchestra subscription concerts each season, plus lead the orchestra in domestic and international tours.

A native of Naples, Italy, Muti first led the Chicago orchestra as a guest conductor at the Ravinia Festival in 1973. He led Milan’s La Scala from 1986 to 2005.

KINGS 99, BULLS 70

Boozer, coach clash over minutes Thibs: Gibson earns playing time Next for the Bulls

By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com SACRAMENTO – Tom Thibodeau often talks about the many distractions that can hit an NBA team.

One slammed into the Bulls head on Monday. All 6-foot-9, 266 pounds of it.

Upset with being in his warmups and a towel on his head far too often in the fourth quarter of games, especially as of late, Carlos Boozer sent a very direct message to Thibodeau.

“Nah, I think I should be out there, but it’s his choice, he makes the decisions out there, so I play, I don’t coach.

He coaches. So he decides that,’’ Boozer said before the 99-70 blowout loss to Sacramento. “But honestly, he’s been doing that a lot since I’ve been here, not putting me in the fourth quarter.

Sometimes we win, more times than not we don’t, but that’s his choice.’’

Asked how tough it’s been for him, especially considering Boozer could be an amnesty candidate after this season, Boozer replied, “Super tough, it’s very frustrating, especially when I’ve got a great game going or what have you.

Obviously as a competitor you want to be out there to help your team win and especially when the game is close, you can do things that can help your team win. And not being out there, all you could do is really cheer them on, but that’s [Thibodeau’s] choice.’’

Actually, the way Thibodeau sees it, it’s Boozer making the choice. Made easier by performance. Taj Gibson is not only outperforming Boozer in the fourth defensively, but offensively, shooting 49 percent in the fourth quarter for the season, and 58 per-

Bulls at Phoenix, 8 p.m. Tuesday CSN, NBATV, AM-1000 cent in the final quarter over the past five games.

Boozer, who finished with eight points on 4-for-15 shooting, did get fourth quarter minutes against the Kings, but the fact that Joakim Noah was booted from the game in the third was a big reason. And Noah could expect a fine and likely suspension, considering after he was ejected he pointed toward each official and yelled “[expletive] you,’’ before being removed from the court.

“I have two guys that are deserving of being starters,’’ Thibodeau said.

“I’m asking Taj to sacrifice not starting, and in some cases Carlos has to sacrifice not finishing.

“Sometimes you have to sacrifice what might be best for yourself for what’s best for the team. That’s what I love about Taj. Taj could be upset he’s not starting. He never complains.

Whatever you ask him to do he just goes out there and does it. To me, what he does speaks volumes. He’s not talking about it. He’s going out there and doing it.’’

HARTFORD, Conn. – A man who alleges he was shot in the face by former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez in Florida was shot again, this time outside a Connecticut nightclub, where he then opened fire, police said Monday.

Alexander Bradley was part of a disturbance involving money Sunday that spilled outside the Vevo Lounge Bar & Grill in Hartford’s South Meadows neighborhood, police Lt. Brian Foley said.

After the 31-year-old was shot multiple times in the right thigh, he retrieved a gun from his car and tried to enter the nightclub, Foley said, before he opened fire.

Bradley, an associate of Hernandez, alleges in a Florida lawsuit that he lost his right eye when Hernandez shot him in the face as they argued outside a Miami club last February.

Hernandez is jailed on a murder charge in the death of Odin Lloyd, a semiprofessional football player whose body was found June 17 near Hernandez’s North Attleborough, Mass., home. Hernandez has pleaded not guilty.

Boston police, meanwhile, have linked both Hernandez and Bradley to a double homicide in July 2012. Police believe Hernandez and Bradley were in an SUV when someone inside the vehicle fatally shot Daniel Jorge Correia de Abreu and Safiro Teixeira Furtado in Boston’s South End, according to a search warrant filed by Bristol, Conn., police.

Blackhawks center Jonathan Toews (front) celebrates a goal by Patrick Kane (not shown) against Kings goalie Jonathan Quick in the first period Monday in Los Angeles.

Blackhawks have won five of 15 games. And although they’ve picked up a point in seven of those losses that came in overtime and shootouts, their 5-3-7 record is well

off their blistering pace in the first three months of the season (28-7-7). In fact, their 17 points are tied for sixth in the Western Conference in that span. Only Vancouver has

fewer victories.

And although 17 points in 15 games is hardly a disaster, the Hawks’ mediocrity in January is not a myth. The Hawks know they haven’t been themselves lately.

“Eddie Olczyk and I were just talking about that,” forward Patrick Sharp said.

“You can look at a lot of things – they’re all going to sound like excuses.

“But the bottom line is we’re healthy. We’ve got the same team we’ve had all season, so there should be no reason for a letdown. Throughout 82 games there are going to be ups and downs. We’re

getting points in a lot of games, but not finding ways to get [victories]. But I feel like we’ve had some great games lately. San Jose [a 2-1 shootout loss] is something hopefully we can build off of.”

The Hawks have not been the potent machine they were earlier in the season.

But they haven’t lost their touch for rising to the occasion. Two of their best performances since the beginning of the season came in two of their biggest, highest-profile games – a 4-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Jan. 17 and a 3-2 victory over the Boston Bruins in a nationally televised game two days later. This team still knows how to turn it on.

“I’m very confident in this team,” Sharp said. “I feel like it’s there. We’ve got the potential to do great things.”

Meiners, Madej will continue hockey careers in college • HOCKEY Continued from page C1 Meiners manages to fit hockey into a busy sporting life that includes tennis in the fall and softball in the spring. Despite her time on the ice bumping up against both of her other athletic endeavors at Woodstock North, Meiners has kept up with all three.

The secret, she said, is keeping things in the proper perspective.

“When hockey is bumping up against tennis or softball, there’s pretty much no time at all,” she said.

“I’m pretty much at the sport and then I’m home sleeping and then I’m at school and at the sport. That’s the hard part.”

Meiners will play hockey and study nursing at Division III Finlandia University in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Even though hockey remains her future, she finds value in helping her high school teams achieve success. Devoting as much time to normal activities has been part of the balancing act Meiners has learned to manage.

Transitioning to an out-of-state hockey program from Team Illinois, however, added to the challenge.

On their Tuesday and Thursday travel days, Meiners and Madej leave Woodstock about 5 p.m., driving 90 minutes into Wisconsin. They arrive in time to go through off-ice workouts with a personal trainer before skating until about 10 p.m. They won’t leave until about 10:30 p.m., and they won’t arrive back home until after midnight.

Sierra Meiners (left) and Sam Madej have been playing for the Milwaukee Admirals Tier I AAA team for the past year.

Despite the rigors of their schedules, Madej and Meiners have kept up with everything – including their school work. Meiners holds a 3.5 grade-point average, while Madej has maintained a 3.7 GPA. At times, their hockey schedules may force them to miss an occasional day of school or a homecoming dance or time with their friends, but neither of the girls balks at the commitment level they’ve had to live up to.

“It’s kind of hard sometimes,” said Madej, who will play hockey and study physical therapy at Stevenson University in suburban Baltimore. “You just have to plan ahead, and your friends just have to know that you’re busy but that you have a

commitment that’s going to be worth it in the end.”

Admirals U-19 coach and director of women’s hockey Bud Simon said the routine isn’t for everyone.

In addition to the travel required just to practice in Milwaukee, Madej and Meiners had to adjust to higher expectations, forcing them to work even harder to find a niche with their new teams.

In 39 games this season, Meiners, a forward, has scored nine goals and had five assists, while Madej, a defenseman, has tallied one goal and seven assists in 45 games. Simon has been impressed with how both girls have handled the extra work load – all while remaining grounded with

their responsibilities at home.

“I think if you would have asked them five months ago how they were adjusting, they would have said, ‘I didn’t realize it would be this tough,’ ” Simon said. “But after being in the trenches for the past five months, I think they’re stronger for going through what they have had to go through.”

In the midst of their nonstop lives, Madej and Meiners don’t feel like they’ve missed out on anything as they begin the stretch run toward high school graduation. Although both consider themselves normal high school athletes, both girls revel in the uniqueness that hockey has added to their lives.

“It definitely sparks up a lot of conversation with people,” said Meiners, who started as a figure skater. “They’ll say, ‘Girls actually play hockey?’ But it’s pretty cool that I’m able to participate in this kind of a sport.”

Even though college hockey means the end of the competitive road, Madej and Meiners wouldn’t trade the experience for anything – regardless of the time and effort it took to get them to this point. “[Playing college hockey] is what I’ve wanted since I was 5 years old, and that’s what I told myself when I work hard,” Madej said. “I haven’t been playing hockey for the last 12 years for nothing.

“At times, you’ll say, ‘Do I really have to go?’, But what makes you better is going when you really don’t want to. That’s when your love for the game takes over.”

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Jeremy Hellickson has undergone surgery on his pitching elbow and is expected to miss the first six to eight weeks of the season.

The 2011 AL Rookie of the Year experienced discomfort in his elbow after beginning his offseason throwing program in December. He tried to work through it, but when it persisted during bullpen sessions in midJanuary, Hellickson contacted the team trainer.

Arthroscopic surgery was performed Wednesday. Hellickson plans to report to spring training this month, however he’s not expected to rejoin the rotation until at least mid-May. The 26-year-old went 12-10 with a career-high 5.17 ERA in 31 starts last season. In January, he agreed to a one-year deal worth $3,625,000, avoiding arbitration.

Syracuse unanimous No. 1 in AP basketball poll SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Syracuse’s reward for winning one of the best college basketball games of the season was a spot on top of The Associated Press Top 25 poll.

Combined with No. 1 Arizona’s first loss of the season last weekend, the Orange’s 91-89 overtime win over Duke on Saturday moved them up one spot to the top.

Syracuse (21-0) received all 65 first-place votes from the national media panel Monday, making the Orange the first unanimous No. 1 since Duke was for six weeks in 2010-11.

Seattle win costs Houston furniture man $7 million HOUSTON – Seattle’s victory in the Super Bowl cost Houston furniture store mogul Jim McIngvale some $7 million.

McIngvale is the owner of one of the nation’s largest independent furniture stores, Gallery Furniture. He promised customers who spent at least $6,000 in the past two weeks and took delivery before Sunday’s game that he’d refund their purchase cost if Seattle won.

The Seahawks routed Denver, 43-8.

McIngvale said Monday his accountant is “pulling his hair out.” He says he didn’t do well financially, but did build is brand.

He said the promotion was not covered by insurance.

GIRLS BASKETBALL: PRAIRIE RIDGE 44, CL CENTRAL 25

JUSTIN NOLEN Harvard, sr.

Nolen scored a combined 41 points in two games as the Hornets went 1-1 over the weekend.

Nolen scored 24 points in Harvard’s 54-45 loss to Marengo on Friday in a Big Northern Conference East Division game that was part of the Castle Challenge between the rival schools.

On Saturday, Nolen led the Hornets with 17 points in Harvard’s 59-45 nonconference victory over Alden-Hebron.

Noteworthy Familiar foes: Marengo coach Will Benson coached his first game against Harvard on Friday night, which was a little strange because not only is Benson the Hornets’ former coach, but he still teaches physical education at Harvard.

Three of Harvard’s starters – Nolen, Fernando Carrera and Tate Miller – are in Benson’s first-hour home room.

Benson coached Harvard from 2010 through 2012, then worked as Jacobs’ sophomore coach last season. Marengo did not have a teaching position for Benson, so he remains at Harvard in that capacity.

Marengo won the game behind 24 points from Wesson Shepard.

“It wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be,” Benson said. “People at Harvard know I’m the same person. A couple of the kids’ chants were pretty clever. It was a great atmosphere.”

Harvard coach Donnie Nolen was Benson’s assistant for the three seasons he was coach.

“It was a really fun night for all the kids,” Benson said. “Donnie and I are still real good friends. They knew a lot of our stuff and still run some of the stuff we were running [when I was there].”

Nice step: Benson is excited that the Indians (11-9) have their most wins since 2002 (16-12) with a chance to add a few more. The 11 victories ties Marengo’s total from last season, which is the Indians’ most since 2002.

In the Valley: Huntley (6-0) holds a two-game lead over Cary-Grove and Jacobs (both 4-2) in the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division race at the halfway point. The Red Raiders are trying to win their fourth consecutive division championship.

Grayslake Central (6-0) leads the FVC Fox Division over Woodstock (2-1), Hampshire (3-2) and Grayslake North (3-2).

Weather woes: When Richmond-Burton defeated Marengo, 70-57, Saturday night, it was the first time the Rockets had played in 10 days because of poor weather.

This week’s top games Woodstock at Woodstock North 7 p.m. Tuesday The intracity rivals have their first meeting in an FVC Fox matchup.

Woodstock still has nine of its 12 division games remaining.

Prairie Ridge at Cary-Grove 7 p.m. Friday C-G is two games behind FVC Valley-leading Huntley and needs every win it can get. Prairie Ridge would like to atone for a 55-29 home loss to the Trojans on Jan. 10.

Harvard at Richmond-Burton 7 p.m. Friday R-B is tied with Burlington Central and Genoa-Kingston atop the Big Northern Conference East Division standings heading into the second round of games.

Wolves can’t stop 6-3 center inside

By ANDY SCHMIDT sports@nwherald.com CRYSTAL LAKE – There are some nights when a particular player takes over a game. Prairie Ridge center Maddie Drain was that player Monday night during a Fox Valley Conference girls basketball crossover against Crystal Lake Central.

Drain turned into a one-person wrecking crew inside, putting up a game-high 24 points as Prairie Ridge

won, 44-25.

The Tigers (11-12) started strong, scoring nine of the game’s first 12 points, but soon found themselves behind because of Prairie Ridge’s ability to find the 6-foot-3 Drain on the inside.

Her height advantage allowed Drain to go over two, three and sometimes four Central defenders for easy baskets. That allowed the Wolves (158) to take a 19-18 halftime lead, which was extended in the second half, when Drain scored 15 of her 24 points.

Drain said that, although she almost outscored Central on her own, credit needed to go elsewhere.

“I hadn’t really thought about that. That’s really weird (almost outscoring a whole team),” Drain said.

PR’s Ginsberg perseveres, lands D-II offer

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com Erin Ginsberg’s soccer ability clearly was at a level that could get her an NCAA scholarship.

The Prairie Ridge forward’s promising career hit a couple of roadblocks in 2010 and 2011, when she tore each of her ACLs. Ginsberg, now a senior, pressed on.

“I think there was a point in time when I questioned it, but all the hard work and dedication that I put in helped me achieve my dream,” Ginsberg said.

Ginsberg will sign her NCAA National Letter of Intent to attend NCAA Division II Maryville University in St. Louis on Wednesday afternoon at Prairie Ridge.

She had two goals and one assist for the Wolves, who finished 193-1 and were Class 2A state runners-up last season.

Ginsberg played travel soccer with the Crystal Lake Force and injured her left knee in 2010, her freshman year. She suffered Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com a torn ACL, MCL and meniscus Prairie Ridge’s Erin Ginsberg (center) possesses the ball May 28 during the Class 2A Barrington Su- damage and took eight months to rehabilitate. persectional against Lake Forest. Ginsberg will play at Maryville University in St. Louis.

A year later, again playing for Force, she suffered an ACL tear in her right knee and took six months to recover.

“Physically, I would say I was back to normal with the therapy and work in about six months,” Ginsberg said. “But mentally, it took me awhile before I wasn’t second-guessing myself on tackles and afraid that I might get hurt. Because of what I went through, I can take anything thrown my way.”

Ginsberg plans on majoring in occupational therapy at Maryville. In the summer after her sophomore year, she contacted Maryville coach Eric Delabar about her interest in the school.

Delabar was the first to contact Ginsberg back and last summer she committed to the Saints.

Ginsberg thoroughly enjoyed her first healthy high school season on the state runner-up team, the best finish in school history for girls soccer.

“We had a really good allaround team,” Ginsberg said. “It was incredible playing with all those girls in my first healthy year.”

“We figured out in the second half that was where we’ve got to go,” Baker said. “Every possession, make sure that we got a good look in there with not only Maddie but Kirsten (VoelPel). Once we finally realized we’ve got to drive the ball to look to get it in to those two, we were fine.”

SUPER BOWL

Overlooked QB Wilson was a steal for Seattle

By PATRICK FINLEY pfinley@suntimes.com

AP photo

Fans slide down the toboggan run Friday on “Super Bowl Boulevard” in New York’s Times Square. Sunday’s Super Bowl XLVIII was played in East Rutherford, N.J., where the game-time temperature was a relatively balmy 49 degrees.

Bears’ chance to be hosts of Super Bowl has passed NEW YORK – Calm down, Chicagoans who are clamoring for a “cold weather” Super Bowl game to call our own.

I would like you to look out my hotel window this Monday afternoon near Times Square and notice the snowflakes cascading down. Check out those poor mopes stepping into slush holes that may or may not have bottoms to them.

Har! There goes a lady with a baby stroller trying to drag it over a halfplowed drift!

OK, that’s not funny, but it’s illustrative of my point: The NFL lucked out gigantically by playing Super Bowl XLVIII at open-air MetLife Stadium on Sunday and not a day later.

And not a couple of weeks before, when it was cold enough in New York and New Jersey to freeze rat whiskers.

Can you imagine if Chicago actually had been awarded this season’s Super Bowl and it had been held, let’s say – Jan. 6 – when it hit minus 16 in town, with a wind chill somewhere around minus 30? Now that would have been special. And insane.

How about if the game somehow had been held at Soldier Field on Christmas Eve (my birthday, by the way), 1983, when the temperature dipped to minus 23 and there was a wind chill – as then calculated – of a record minus 82?

Now that is hilarity! Let’s say a warm-weather team like the then-Los Angeles Raiders had been involved (which they were, in that season’s Super Bowl held in Tampa). I could envision a totally wasted Raiders fan, in Darth Vader mask and silver chains, found several weeks later, frozen in a sitting position, metal mesh still clanking in the Lake Michigan wind, like a cement gargoyle on a stoop.

VIEWS Rick Telander Every northern or quasi-northern NFL city now wants the Super Bowl, since the rules about a 50-degree minimum average temperature for the date was waived by the league to give the game to East Rutherford, N.J., stadium home of both the Giants and Jets.

Why did the waiver occur? Because the Giants and Jets were good boys and built a new stadium. Built a big one – 82,550 capacity. Big is as critical as new to the NFL. Consider: Tickets to SB XLVIII went from $500 to $2,500, face value.

Thus, an extra 10,000 seats could be worth $10 million or so to the league.

You hear that, Chicago?

Hate to rain, excuse me – sleet, snow and drift – on your Super Bowl dreams, but maybe somebody could have spoken to then-Mayor Richard Daley and the rubber-stamp City Council and dozing Chicago Park District owners about the renovation plans for Soldier Field around 2000.

What came out of the 2003 refurbishing was a tiny – 61,500-capacity – alien toilet seat dropped inside concrete columns that held nostalgia for a few people who remembered tractor pulls and track meets once convened within. No roof, no room, no good.

Soldier Field is the second-smallest outdoor NFL stadium. The only smaller one is the thing called O.co Coliseum in Oakland, which keeps reducing its size to avoid empty seats and league-mandated TV blackouts. Some day one expects O.co Coliseum, or whatever it will be called then, to disappear into terminal density and

become a genuine black hole.

At any rate, there is no way Soldier Field as presently constructed will get a Super Bowl. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell may have married a woman from suburban Chicago, but the man whose salary is $30 million a year is not a sentimental dude.

Washington wants a Super Bowl now. So does Boston and Philadelphia and, we hear, Denver.

The next three years go to Arizona, the San Francisco area, and Houston.

For 2018 there are three contenders – Indianapolis (barf), Minneapolis (gag), and New Orleans (Yay!). We’ll see what happens.

New York is so giddy with its lucky weather bullseye – a balmy 49 degrees, clear skies, 48-degree windchill at kickoff – that it wants the game back.

“For years to come, young people, men and women will feel this game was important for the region,” gushed Giants co-owner Jonathon Tisch before the game even was held. “Let’s try to do this once every 10 years.”

How does once this century sound, Chicago? I don’t know how to do it, but great God almighty there have already been two Super Bowls held in the shrinking junkyard known as Detroit.

There has been one in Minneapolis, where I recall the highlight of game week was watching a man sculpt a large fish out of ice with a chainsaw.

Who knows, folks? If the right stadium won’t do it, maybe global warming is our best chance.

If all those NFL cities would just sink into the sea. …

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – When he wasn’t praying for his lottery ticket to come in, Seahawks general manager John Schneider tried to relax.

He muted nonstop coverage of the 2012 NFL draft – if he didn’t turn off the TV altogether – and turned up the reggae music in the Seahawks’ draft room. The team’s thirdround pick was approaching, and quarterback Russell Wilson still was on the board.

It’s easy for other executives to say now – after the Seahawks’ 43-8 rout Sunday of the Broncos in the Super Bowl – that they saw what the Seahawks did in the 5-foot-11 quarterback. After Wilson’s efficient performance – 18 for 25 for 206 yards and two touchdowns – it will inspire them to claim they were this close to drafting the former North Carolina State and Wisconsin star.

“It’s real common for people to say, ‘Hey, we loved that guy, too,’ ” Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said with a smirk last week.

The Bears, though, showed interest. Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez told Sports Illustrated last week that then-Bears offensive coordinator Mike Tice was enamored with Wilson.

(Tice’s son, Nate, backed up Wilson in Wilson’s lone season with the Badgers.) At the least, Tice thought Wilson could excel in the then-popular wildcat formation. At the most, Tice thought he could have been Jay Cutler’s heir apparent.

Drafting and developing Wilson would have allowed the Bears to exploit what has become the NFL’s greatest market inefficiency since the revised 2011 collective-bargaining agreement took effect.

The CBA means Wilson will make $662,434 next season and can’t renegotiate until after his third season (2014). His salary-cap hit will be $817,302.

By comparison, Cutler – who signed a new deal last month – will make $22.5 mil-

“It’s real common for people to say, ‘Hey, we loved that guy, too.’ ” Pete Carroll Seahawks coach, on Russell Wilson lion next season, with the same salary-cap hit. He’ll make $15.5 million in 2015 and $16 million in 2016.

Because of Wilson’s deal, the Seahawks were able to spend money last offseason.

They traded for receiver Percy Harvin and signed him to a long-term deal, signed defensive ends Michael Bennett and Cliff Avril and gave safety Kam Chancellor a contract extension.

Try building the best defense in the NFL while paying your franchise quarterback like, well, a franchise quarterback.

Regardless of his paycheck, Wilson quickly has become a star, his popularity surging because of his play and leadership qualities. When Wilson asked his teammates “Why not us?” earlier this season, he was quoting his late father, who always said Wilson’s size was no reason for him to spurn football for baseball.

“I’ve always believed in myself,” Wilson said after the Super Bowl. “That’s never gonna waver, either. I just needed the opportunity. If I got the opportunity, I was gonna take advantage of it.”

Wilson’s numbers weren’t eye-popping – with a defense like his, they didn’t need to be – but he played like a veteran.

His elusiveness helped the Seahawks convert four third downs in the first quarter, keeping the Broncos off the field and setting up the eventual stomping.

“I felt like I had a good night,” Wilson said. “I was locked in. That was my goal: just have laser focus and be in the game, be engaged in the game.”

Everyone saw it coming two years ago.

Sure, they did.

NFL owners determined to have a franchise return to Los Angeles • ARKUSH Continued from page C1 has done anything to suggest they will be among the league’s top passers, but all three can beat you with their legs at almost any time?

To be clear, I suspect teams quarterbacked by Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees will win another Super Bowl or two before they are all done. But not without a top defense and a stud running back or two.

Bringing this closer to home, there is a theory that’s been espoused mainly by ill-informed

media and fans, but also by the occasional NFL coach or general manager, that teams can contend in the NFL with a big-time offense and an “adequate” defense.

I believe the Seahawks and Broncos just proved – with an exclamation point – that is not the case.

Another hot-button topic to come out of this Super Bowl is the question of whether the “cold weather” Super Bowl worked and can work again in the future.

As lucky as the NFL owners got with the weather last week in New York and New Jersey, and as incredibly lucky as they were

on game day, my sense from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and the other powers that be is they know exactly how lucky they got and that they will be in no great hurry to try it again.

Interestingly enough, the two cold-weather cities with open air stadiums rumored to be preparing bids for February 2018 – ’15, ’16 and ’17 have been awarded to Arizona, San Francisco and Houston – are Denver and Seattle.

We’ll know more about this at the NFL owners meetings in the spring, but I’d put my money on New Orleans, which also will be preparing a bid for 2018, while

the “cold weather” question gets kicked down the road a bit.

What will the next big topic be for the NFL’s owners and its fans?

Keep your eyes on St. Louis and Los Angeles.

While it absolutely escapes me why the NFL owners are so determined to put a team back in L.A. when two have already failed and left, and the TV ratings in the market improve markedly when there is no club there, they are.

It was reported Wednesday that St. Louis Rams owner and billionaire real estate developer Stan Kroenke recently purchased 60 acres of land in the L.A. market,

and it is no secret he continues to be frustrated by the refusal of the folks in St. Louis to update the stadium there or build a new one.

It could just be that Kroenke found a deal on land he couldn’t pass up. Or it could be that he will petition the league this spring to allow him to finally build a stadium in L.A. and move the Rams back to L.A. Kroenke’s not saying, but it’s a story we’ll watch closely.

A man carries the American flag Jan. 25, 1924, as the United States is represented during opening ceremonies for the first Winter Olympics in Chamonix, France.

Norway to top the medals table with 17 total. In what turned out to be a historical footnote, Haug was also awarded the bronze in the ski jump in 1924; but 50 years later a scoring error was confirmed and the medal was finally delivered –

by Haug’s daughter no less – to its rightful owner, American Anders Haugen.

Finland finished second with 11, thanks to Clas Thunberg’s speedskating haul of three golds, a silver and a bronze. The 28 medals by Norway and Finland were more than all the rest of the competing nations combined. The United States and Britain finished tied for third with four medals each. Canada won only one medal, but served notice it was a hockey power to be reckoned with by scoring 122 goals and allowing just three en route to the gold.

Here is the original dispatch from Chamonix, as reported by The Associated Press on Jan. 25, 1924.

OLYMPIC ICE GAMES OPEN AT CHAMONIX The Winter sports of the eighth Olympic Games were officially opened today with the customary Olympic ceremonies, presided over

by Gaston Vidal, Under Secretary of State for Physical Education. M. Vidal received the oaths of amateurism by the athletes entered for the competition. The teams of all the nations represented, bearing their national flags and emblems, then paraded from the City Hall to the skating rink, where the actual competitions will begin tomorrow.

On the arrival at the rink Under Secretary Vidal declared the official opening of the sports. His voice, caught up by enormous amplifiers on top of the grand stands, was sent reverberating up the sides of the high mountains which give the Chamonix Valley its magnificent setting. At the words, the 150 athletes, awaiting the announcement, clapped on their skates, jumped on to the immense sheet of ice before them, and the eighth Olympic Games, in their modern revival, were on.

Jewtraw, United States; Gorman, Canada; Thunberg, Finland and Olsen, Norway, four of the fastest skaters here, hooked up in several turns around the rink in an impromptu race that brought the four or five thousand spectators to their feet cheering.

ATHLETES PASS IN REVIEW Prior to the official opening of the games, when the competing teams with banners and their national emblems flying paraded from the City Hall of Chamonix through the streets of the city to the rink, they were reviewed by Count Clary, President of the French Olympic Committee: the Marquis de Polignac and Mr. Vidal.

The band of the Twenty-seventh Alpine “Blue Devils” played the national anthems of Austria, Belgium, Canada, Esthonia, the United States, Finland, France, Great Britain, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland and Czechoslovakia as the group of athletes passed in that order.

The athletes of Belgium, Canada, the United States and France received the most enthusiastic welcomes. Clarence J. Abel, St. Paul, of

the American hockey team, was the bearer of the Stars and Stripes, and Harry Drury, Pittsburgh, carried the American emblem. They took the Olympic oath, administered

by Vidal, on behalf of the American athletes. Both swore that the American athletes would be “loyal competitors, and respect the rules and regulations in a chivalrous spirit for the honor of our country and the greater glory of sport.”

Abel stumbled over his French a few times in repeating the oath, but he told M. Vidal that he would rather be tripped up in his French delivery than while shooting for a goal in the hockey competition.

This brought a cordial laugh from the Under-Secretary.

The worry over the weather, the mildness of which had threatened to prevent the starting of the games tomorrow, was dissipated today. Clear and cold conditions set in during the day and tonight the prospects are for colder conditions.

It is considered certain the competition will commence tomorrow at 11 o’clock with the 500-meter race. At 3 P. M. the 5,000-meter event will be started.

Thousands of visitors have gathered in this small Alpine town on the slopes of Mont Blanc, which today, for the first time in a week, threw off its blanket of thick clouds, the peak glistening in the bright sunshine and providing a wonderful setting for the Olympics.

UNITED STATES STARS IN GOOD SHAPE The condition of the American skaters who are to compete is all that could be expected after the difficulties they have encountered in training. They will take the ice tomorrow, fit to give stiff battle to the best skaters of any nation entered. Steinmetz, Jewtraw, Donovan, Bialis, Moore and Kaskey all expressed confidence of success today. They look for the most strenuous opposition from the Finnish team.

The American hockey players today got their second real practice since their arrival here Monday – a splendid work-out of an hour, at the end of which Manager William S. Haddock announced his present intention to line up the following team in the opening game against Belgium Monday: Alphonse A. La Croix, Boston, goal; Irving W. Small, Boston, right defense; Clarence J. Abel, St. Paul, left defense; Harry Drury, Pittsburgh, centre; Justin J. McCarthy, Boston, left wing; Willard W. Rice, Boston, right wing.

The players are a little below their best condition, owing to their enforced idleness of the last few days, but with hard work the next two days they expect to take the ice in tip-top form.

The athletes of all the nations took to the ice today with such vim and energy, stored up by reason of their, enforced idleness due to the warm weather, that their managers felt obliged to restrain their ardor.

The American hockey players were called off the ice after a few minutes of exercise. William S. Haddock, Pittsburgh, manager of the team, fearing accidents because of the large numbers of skaters on the rink.

The Associated Press CHAMONIX, FRANCE – A ragtag parade down the center of town marked the opening ceremonies of the first Winter Olympics.

Looks quaint, doesn’t it? Look closer and you’ll see just how quaint: Many of the athletes – they really were amateurs back in the day – are lugging their own equipment: hockey sticks, skates, skis and such. Then again, by 1924 standards, it was considered quite a pageant.

Ninety years after its original publication, the AP is making its original report on the opening ceremonies of the first Winter Olympics available.

The whole shebang at Chamonix in 1924 cost less than $28 million in today’s dollars, and set the tone for the winter games that followed.

Unlike their bigger, brassier and traditionally much more expensive summer counterparts, they’ve been generally modest affairs ever since. But there are oligarch-sized ambitions to flip the script this time around.

When the world gathers in Sochi this week, Russian President Vladimir Putin and his countrymen better have plans up their sleeves for something with a little more oomph. Otherwise, they’ll have $50 billion – more than has been lavished on any previous Olympics – worth of questions to answer for.

Sochi was known once for the tea grown in the region, and later, as the site of state-run, Neoclassicalstyled sanatoriums and Joseph Stalin’s favorite dacha. The plan now is to turn the summer resort town alongside the Black Sea into a staging ground for the most spectacular winter games ever, and in the bargain, turn Sochi into a destination for the ski and private jet-set.

Putin has hinted he will accept nothing less – despite repeated construction delays, reports of widespread corruption, environmental damage and unrelenting criticism over a Russian law banning “homosexual propaganda.”

And even those problems seem pale in comparison to security concerns heightened after recent bombings in Volgograd and Dagestan believed to be the work of Islamic insurgents in the nearby Caucasus region.

“The result expected by us,” a defiant Putin said recently, “is a brilliant Games.”

The expectations for those first games, on the other hand, were simply to improve on a winter sports festival that had taken root in Sweden in 1901.

Fans and organizers of the Nordic Games had managed to shoehorn a figure-skating competition into the 1908 Summer Olympics in London, but they kept lobbying for games of their own. The International Olympic Committee finally went along in 1924, granting the French officials who staged the 1924 Summer Games in Paris a chance to try their hand at six winter sports – alpine and cross-country skiing, figure skating, ice hockey, Nordic combined, ski jumping and speed skating.

Sixteen events were contested over 11 days, drawing 258 athletes (including only 11 women) from 16 nations and exactly 10,004 paying customers. American speedskater Charles Jewtraw won the opening contest, the 500 meters, prompting the Boston Globe to slap the headline “Our Flag At Top Of Olympic Mast” atop The Associated Press story.

Read a few paragraphs into it and you’ll learn that the swingingarm style that has become mandatory for sprinters since was considered revolutionary when Jewtraw and U.S. teammate Joe Moore (who finished eighth) unveiled it before a handful of “gaping” Norwegian, Finnish and Swedish coaches.

But it didn’t take long to figure out why those traditional Nordic powers were so eager to get their own Olympics.

IOWA BASKETBALL

Big week for Hawkeyes No. 17 Iowa to host Ohio State, No. 10 Michigan

By LUKE MEREDITH The Associated Press IOWA CITY, Iowa – Iowa answered coach Fran McCaffery’s questions about its toughness with an inspired win at Illinois over the weekend.

Now there’s something even more important the Hawkeyes have to figure out.

Are they still good enough to push for the Big Ten title?

No. 17 Iowa (17-5 overall, 6-3 Big Ten) hosts Ohio State (17-5, 4-5) on Tuesday and No. 10 Michigan (16-5, 8-1) on Saturday. It’s a huge chance for the Hawkeyes to pull away from the muddled middle of the Big Ten and stay within sight of co-leaders Michigan and Michigan State.

Iowa opened the week two games behind the Wolverines and Spartans, who’ve each beaten the Hawkeyes this season.

“If you look at who’s behind us and who’s in front of us, these are tough games that are coming up,” Iowa center Gabe Olaseni said.

McCaffery was none too pleased with his team after a 71-69 overtime home loss to the Spartans last week.

Michigan State held off the Big Ten’s deepest team despite missing two starters, and McCaffery said afterward that his players were almost too “nice” to the Spartans.

There was nothing nice about what the Hawkeyes did to the Fighting Illini.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL: MIDWEST ROUNDUP

New No. 1 Syracuse stops Irish The ASSOCIATED PRESS SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Trevor Cooney scored a career-high 33 points, matching a school record with nine 3-pointers, and top-ranked Syracuse beat Notre Dame, 61-55, on Monday night in another matchup of former Big East foes.

Syracuse (22-0 overall, 9-0 Atlantic Coast Conference), which moved to No. 1 this week after its scintillating 9189 overtime victory over Duke on Saturday night, extended its school record for most consecutive wins to start a season.

Notre Dame (12-11, 3-7) has lost seven of nine.

Two days after one of the most emotional wins in Jim Boeheim’s 38 years as head coach, Syracuse played its first game as the nation’s top team since the 2011-12 season. Two years ago, the Orange were unbeaten and ranked No. 1 when they went to South Bend, and Notre Dame upset them, 67-58.

It was the eighth time Notre Dame had beaten a No. 1 team and turned out to be Syracuse’s lone loss of the regular season.

Cooney made sure there was no repeat, hitting five 3-pointers in the first half as the Orange gained a 13-point halftime advantage and barely held the Irish at bay in the second half.

Cooney, 9 of 12 from long range, matched the record set

by Gerry McNamara in the 2004 NCAA tournament and equaled

by Andy Rautins in 2008 and James Southerland in 2012.

Garrick Sherman led Notre Dame with 16 points, Steve Vasturia had 13 and Pat Connaughton 11, while Eric Atkins had nine on 3-of-10 shooting.

Georgetown 71, DePaul 59: At Rosemont, Markel Starks scored 26 points, and Georgetown continued its mastery of DePaul.

D’Vauntes Smith-Rivera added 17 and Jabril Trawick had 15 for the Hoyas, who were coming off a 64-60 upset win Saturday in New York over thenNo. 7 Michigan State.

Georgetown (13-9, 4-6 Big East) also prolonged its dominance of the Blue Demons, topping DePaul for the second time this season and 14th straight time overall.

Brandon Young led DePaul with 15 and Billy Garrett Jr. had 12 as the Blue Demons (1013, 2-8) lost their fifth straight.

Iowa opened like a team with something to prove to its coach, racing ahead 34-13. Illinois then responded with furious rally and jumped ahead by as many as five points midway through the second half.

It was then that the Hawkeyes showed the toughness that was missing against Michigan State. Iowa closed the game on a 20-8 run and clinched its first win in Champaign in 15 years.

“It takes a mental focus and a will not to lose. You could tell everybody on our team had no intention of losing that game,” Iowa senior Devyn Marble said.

One of the biggest reasons Iowa was able to rally at Illinois was Olaseni. Even though he isn’t starting, Olalseni has grown into one of Iowa’s most indispensable players.

Olaseni, a junior who has backed up sophomore Adam Woodbury all season, posted career highs with 15 points and 12 rebounds. He is now averaging 6.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.3 blocks a game – all career bests – despite averaging less than 16 minutes.

Olaseni is the more athletic of Iowa’s two centers, and his energy off the bench has been crucial for that second unit.

“The thing that is so gratifying to me is you look at a guy who has incredible work ethic, desire, desire to be coached. He just wants to get better, appreciates everything you do for him; arguably the most hum-

ble person I’ve ever coached, and just keeps trying to get better,” McCaffery said.

But before Olaseni and the Hawkeyes can focus on Michigan, they’ll have to deal with the enigmatic Buckeyes.

They’ve been as tough to figure out as anyone in the country.

But Iowa knows Ohio State is as dangerous as any team in the league.

The Hawkeyes got what they thought was their signature road win Jan. 12 in Columbus, beating thenNo. 3 Ohio State, 84-74. The Buckeyes then lost to Nebraska on the road and Penn State at home, but a 59-58 win Saturday at Wisconsin helped halt their ugly slide.

Marble expects Ohio State to be extra motivated by its home loss to the Hawkeyes, and he said Monday the Buckeyes have some of the toughest competitors he’s ever seen.

Ohio State had also won eight in a row over Iowa before losing a few weeks back.

“If anything it adds a little more bounce to your step. You never want to lose at home and we’ve been particularly pretty good over our time here at Ohio State. Anytime you lose one here, it sits with you a little bit. But we know it’s going to be a different game,” Ohio State point guard Aaron Craft said. “They’re playing great basketball. They play differently at AP file photo home, with the energy that they have going there. We have to go in with the Iowa forward Aaron White soars past Illinois’ Kendrick Nunn on Saturday in Champaign. right mindset.”

No. 17 Iowa hosts Ohio State on Tuesday.

Losing programs succeed on recruiting trail

By GARY B. GRAVES The Associated Press It usually turns more than a few heads when a top high school football recruit commits to a struggling program.

There are many reasons, including the school’s proximity to home, a relationship with a recruiter, the system the staff runs or maybe a new coach.

Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia have not had a lot of success recently – absent from bowls the past two years and going a combined 9-27 last season – but enter Wednesday’s national Signing Day having landed some of the schools’ best recruiting classes ever.

Kentucky’s class, ranked 13th by Rivals.com., includes 6-foot-5, 380-pound defensive tackle of Matt Elam of Elizabethtown, Ky., a top prospect who turned down Alabama and Notre Dame to play for a Wildcats program that hasn’t won a Southeastern Conference game since 2011 and is 4-20 the past two years.

Second-year Kentucky coach Mark Stoops said prospects don’t just look directly at the wins and losses.

“They fully understand that we’re in the process of building a program, and I think the big thing is keeping those prospects around us seeing what our plan is and

Kentucky football coach Mark Stoops has lured some prize recruits to Lexington, Ky. seeing how we’re developing that and what we plan on doing,” Stoops said. “This has been one of the most unique experiences as far as recruiting goes that I’ve ever been around. The record doesn’t even come up.

“They believe in what we’re doing and where we’re going.”

Instilling that belief needs to start at home.

Tennessee’s Butch Jones declared at his introductory news conference in December 2012 that the Vols “will own our state” with him as the coach.

After signing only two of the state’s top nine prospects last year, Jones and his staff

have received verbal commitments from five of the state’s top six players according to 247 Composite, which takes the ratings of all the major recruiting services into consideration.

Jones, who replaced Derek Dooley, is coming off last year’s 5-7 finish, and his staff has hit the roads to connect with players and coaches at several in-state high schools.

The result is a No. 4 ranking

by Rivals.com.

“Somewhere along the line that got lost,” said Zach Azzanni, Tennessee’s wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator. “I don’t know where or how or what exactly happened. But we really tried

to rekindle that fire with our in-state prospects to get them to understand when you’re Tennessee born, you bleed orange from the day you’re born. ... I think we’ve been able to convince quite a few of them.”

Virginia’s Mike London has also been able to keep some five-star talent at home.

Although the fifth-year coach’s future with Virginia was questionable after going 2-10 last season, he’s expected to land a top-40 class, including Andrew Brown, a defensive tackle from Chesapeake, Va., who was also named Gatorade national player of the year.

London stresses to prospects the opportunity to play right away and the chance to lead the program back to respectability. He also drives home the fact that players can earn a degree from one of the nation’s top public universities, no matter what happens on the field.

“What atmosphere, what opportunity, what environment would allow you to continue on to be what you want to be outside of the football arena?” London asked.

“When you have a group of young men that are highly talented and have that type of mentality, want those types of goals, it’s my job to make sure that I craft it with the message that I hopefully have

been consistent in.”

Building a relationship with a player during the recruiting process can also hurt a school. If the coach leaves, often the talented class of recruits he has wooed falls apart.

Vanderbilt is the latest to feel the sting after a coaching change.

Several prospects decided to follow coach James Franklin to Penn State when he took the job in Happy Valley last month, Before Franklin’s exit, the class was rated as 24th. As of Monday, Vandy’s class had dropped to 81st with 15 commitments – fewest in the SEC. That would be the lowest class ranking since Franklin’s first class weeks after he was hired was rated No. 70 in 2011.

Derek Mason, the former Stanford defensive coordinator, knew what he was up against when he took the job.

When he was introduced Jan. 18, he said, “most of our young men wanted to know who their head coach was going to be. ... Young men can be nervous about the process when they don’t know. Once they know, the resolve comes back.

“I think you’ll like what you see on signing day.”

That of course, is what every coach in the country hopes to be able to say Wednesday.

Today’s Classified appears inside.

Shoveling snow Your gym is packed. Don’t wait in line for a machine; pick up a shovel and get a workout in your driveway.

It’s more economical than a snow blower, and shoveling is an intense cardio workout that exercises muscles in your legs, core, back, shoulders and arms.

Burn up calories: The exact amount depends on pace and intensity, but expect to burn around 250 calories for every 30 minutes of shoveling. If you experience lower temperatures, heavy snowfall or the need to chop ice, you’ll burn even more calories as your body fights to stay warm and increases exertion. (Be safe, of course, and don’t shovel snow if you have a medical condition or you don’t normally exercise.)

Work different muscle groups: Shoveling snow is a high-intensity workout – especially if you shovel fast – and it works all your major muscle groups. You will feel it the next day in your legs, core, back, shoulders and arms. Use a full range of motion and fire your core muscles as you bend and lift.

Use proper technique: Make sure to squat and lift the snow with your legs, not your back. Second, avoid bending over at the hip flexors. Last, keep the shovel close to your body and walk to where you will dump the snow instead of over-extending, twisting or leaning to toss it.

Dress right: Being too cold can be dangerous and will tighten up your muscles. Dress in winter layers, wear good boots with traction and cover up your hands, ears and head.

‘Exergaming’ helps fit in workout It’s often hard to squeeze in both “me time” and “family time” when you have a busy day, and especially when you want to stay fit to boot – 18 percent of respondents to Aetna’s “what’s your healthy?” survey cite family demands as a reason for not having time to be physically active.

“Exergaming” (short for exercise gaming) is a great way to work out alone or with your kids.

Grab the kids’ game console and get moving.

Seeing into the future Eye health is a lifelong endeavor

By DR. JEFFREY GALLO More Content Now A lifetime of good vision for our most precious sense demands yearround attention because every stage of life poses different challenges. Let’s look at each stage.

Infants and children Vision in early life is continually developing, so eye care is critical to identify and treat such issues as strabismus (both eyes not focusing on the same point) and amblyopia (“lazy eye,” where one eye is weaker than the other).

Although less common, children also may suffer from glaucoma, cataracts and rare eye diseases.

Children also are susceptible to eye injuries from seemingly harmless toys, but proper vigilance by parents can avoid most injuries.

Regular screening at this stage is the key to prompt diagnosis and treatment and crucial to ensure normal visual function throughout life.

A scene as it might be viewed by a person with glaucoma.

Teenagers Young adults are at risk for sports-related injuries, with most occurring in basketball, baseball and racquet sports, and workplace injuries, which can happen at any age. Protective eye equipment can prevent 90 percent of these injuries, but a recent survey by the American Academy of Ophthalmology found such equipment is worn only 35 percent of the time during high-risk activities.

A scene as it might be viewed by a person with cataracts.

Adults Adults 40 to 60 years are guaranteed to develop presbyopia (or “short-arm syndrome”), a progressive loss of ability to see objects up close, resulting in a tendency to hold material further away.

Reading glasses that magnify, used when the arm isn’t long enough, don’t work for everyone, so prescription glasses may be required.

An exam every two years can determine the need for prescription glasses and screen for eye diseases.

Conditions beginning in one’s 40s or 50s – notably diabetes – can affect eye health later. Diabetes, which affects 26 million people in the U.S., is the most common disorder leading to vision loss in those younger than 65.

Seniors The majority of patients I examine as an ophthalmologist are in their 70s and beyond, and their biggest complaints are blurred vision, difficulty driving at night or poor vision despite several recent changes in glasses. My examinations often reveal the presence of one of three eye diseases.

Cataracts, a clouding of the eye’s lens, which is responsible for focusing, are an inescapable part of aging that can dramatically impair vision. Medications and many diseases also can lead to cataracts – and at any age. An examination

Age-related macular degeneration, progressive loss of central vision, is the most common cause of blindness in the U.S. for individuals older than 65. The complaints are often indistinguishable from

those of cataracts. Numerous studies have established a genetic link to this condition, so people with a family history of AMD should undergo routine examinations beginning in their 50s.

The risk for glaucoma, a group of diseases that damage the optic nerve, increases with age. Like AMD, genetics play a role, and those with a family history of

glaucoma should have regular eye examinations, again beginning in their 50s.

There are no symptoms for this condition; it is nearly always diagnosed during a screening examination.

Child’s allowance could serve as teaching moment Parents make decisions about their children every day, some more important than others. One decision facing a parent is, should the child receive an allowance?

As I reviewed this subject in the medical literature, I noted there were many views but few scientific data to support them.

Many questions are raised about allowances. Should a child have an allowance in the first place? If so, when should it be started and how much should it be? Should the allowance be associated with the youngster doing chores? And the questions go on and on.

VIEWS Dr. Murray Feingold About 60 percent of American children receive an allowance. This percentage varies from community to community.

When should a child start getting an allowance? There is some agreement on this question. The child should have an understanding about the value of money and an idea of its purpose. He or she should have some basic math skills and be able to add and subtract.

To determine how much the child receives, some articles suggest 50 cents or $1 for each year of life. So a 12-yearold would receive between $6 or $12 a week. However, in more affluent families some adolescents receive $50 to $100 a week or more.

To many parents, even $15 or $20 a week is a lot more than they received. But when they were children, an ice cream cone cost 10 or 15 cents, much less than it costs today.

There are various views whether or not the child’s allowance should be associated with the usual household chores. Chores, such as

mowing the grass or washing dishes, are considered family responsibilities and the child should not be rewarded for doing them. An allowance is something extra.

Many experts believe having an allowance is a good childhood learning experience, such as how to manage money. And children should learn the clothes or sneakers they wear just didn’t mysteriously appear. Mom and/ or dad had to work to get the money to buy them.

But then there are some people, particularly those whose parents couldn’t afford to give them an allowance, who believe the best way to

learn the value of money is for children (mainly adolescents) to earn it themselves.

They equate an allowance as a “handout.”

Whether or not to give a child an allowance is just one more decision in a long list of decisions parents must make.

Seniors helping seniors

By MATT SEDENSKY The Associated Press NOBLESVILLE, Ind. – Paul Gregoline lies in bed, awaiting the helper who will get him up, bathed and groomed. He is 92 years old, has Alzheimer’s disease and needs a hand with nearly every task the day brings. When the aide arrives, though, he doesn’t look so different from the client himself – bald and bespectacled.

“Just a couple of old geezers,” jokes Warren Manchess, the 74-year-old caregiver.

As demand for senior services provided by nurses’ aides, home health aides and other such workers grows with the aging of baby boomers, so are those professions’ employment of other seniors.

The new face of America’s network of caregivers is increasingly wrinkled.

Among the overall population of direct-care workers, 29 percent are projected to be 55 or older by 2018, up from 22 percent a decade earlier, according to an analysis by the Paraprofessional Healthcare Institute, a New York-based nonprofit advocating for workers caring for the country’s elderly and disabled. In some segments of the workforce, including personal and home care aides, those 55 and older are the largest single age demographic.

“I think people are surprised that this workforce is as old as it is,” said Abby Marquand, a researcher at PHI. “There’s often people who have chronic disease themselves who have to muster up the energy to perform these really physically taxing caregiving needs.”

Manchess came out of retirement to work for Home Instead Senior Care after caring for his mother-in-law, who also had Alzheimer’s and whom he regarded as his hero. The experience, though taxing, inspired his new career.

Three days a week, he arrives at Gregoline’s house, giving the retired electrician’s wife a needed break. He carefully shaves and dresses his client, prepares breakfast and lunch, cleans the house and quickly remedies any accidents. He does the laundry and swaddles Gregoline in a warm towel from the dryer, reads him the sports page to keep him updated on his

Molasses, syrup are two sweeteners that have health benefits

By CASEY SEIDENBERG The Washington Post For those of you with a sweet tooth, remember: Not all sweeteners are alike.

Refined white sugar and corn syrup are stripped of nutrients, have a high glycemic index and contribute to obesity and diabetes.

The artificial sweetener aspartame lacks nutrients and has been shown to cause problems such as dizziness and headaches.

Many agave syrups contain 70 to 80 percent fructose – more than what’s found in high-fructose corn syrup.

But don’t give up on sweets yet. There are two star sweeteners that impart flavor and nutritional benefits: blackstrap molasses and grade B pure maple syrup. In small amounts, these sweeteners actually offer some goodness.

Blackstrap molasses

Caregiver Warren Manchess helps Paul Gregoline with a meal. Burgeoning demand for senior services like home health aides is being met by a surprising segment of the workforce: other seniors. beloved Bears and sometimes pulls out dominoes or puzzles to pass the time.

Manchess has worked for Gregoline for about a year, and the men are at ease around each other. Past aides to Gregoline have been in their 20s, but Manchess says he thinks his age is an asset.

“Age can be an advantage,” he said, pointing to the common conversation points and life experience, including his own health troubles and aches and pains that can come with age. “We hit it off pretty well. Maybe I didn’t seem to be too much out of the ordinary.”

Around the country, senior service agencies are seeing a burgeoning share of older workers. About onethird of Home Instead’s 65,000 caregivers are older than 60. Visiting Angels, another

in-home care provider, says about 30 percent of its workers are older than 50. And at least one network, Seniors Helping Seniors, is built entirely on the model of hiring older caregivers.

Like most occupations, some of the growth in older caregivers is driven by the overall aging of the population and the trend of people working later in life. But with incredibly high rates of turnover and a constant need for more workers, home care agencies have shown a willingness to hire older people new to the field who have found a tough job market as they try to supplement their retirement income.

The jobs are among the fastest-growing positions in the U.S., but also are notoriously physically demanding,

with low pay and high rates of injury. Manchess has had spinal surgery and says he’s especially careful when vacuuming. He’s not sure how many years he’ll be able to continue this work, and he acknowledges it can be tough.

“Halfway through my shift, I’m a little weary myself,” he said. “It takes its toll.”

Manchess had worked as an Air Force pilot, then in real estate, then as a school bus driver, before becoming a professional caregiver.

As Gregoline contentedly nibbles on his ham sandwich, Manchess wraps up his shift, turning reflective when considering his life’s careers.

“I think this is about as rewarding, if not more rewarding, than any of them,” he said.

High in iron and calcium, this sweetener offers health benefits while bestowing a sweet and tangy flavor.

Blackstrap molasses has less sugar and a higher nutrient content than basic molasses. It can be substituted for molasses in most recipes, especially with beans and pork and other meats. But it is slightly more bitter, so taste-test as you use it.

The carbohydrates and iron in blackstrap molasses provide an energy boost.

Just two teaspoons provide 13 percent of your daily requirement of iron and almost 12 percent of calcium.

Iron carries oxygen through our bodies, and calcium supports heart and nerve health, bone strength and blood clotting. Blackstrap molasses also offers magnesium, potassium, copper and manganese.

Although blackstrap molasses has a similar calorie count and sugar content to white sugar, its glycemic load is lower. This means diabetics can consume it more safely.

Using blackstrap molasses: 1. Try adding it to gingerbread or other baked goods.

2. Stir into a bowl of oatmeal. This can be an easy way to ensure children get calcium and iron without fighting over how much broccoli to eat. (Still serve the broccoli, of course.)

3. Add to baked beans for a tangy flavor.

4. Baste a turkey with molasses to give it a warm color and a richer taste.

5. Rub on chicken before baking for a crispy crust.

6. Iced molasses: In a glass, cover a tablespoon of blackstrap molasses with hot water to dissolve. Add ice and fill your glass with milk.

Grade B pure maple syrup Maple syrup has a higher sugar content and a lower mineral content than blackstrap molasses, but its sweet taste is more universal.

Two teaspoons of maple syrup provide 22 percent of your daily requirement of manganese, a mineral essential to survival. Manganese is shown to build strong bones, keep our blood healthy and support antioxidant work. The zinc in maple syrup supports our immunity and heart.

A majority of shoppers buy grade A maple syrup because it most resembles the highly processed versions made with corn syrup. Grade B is usually produced later in the season, tends to have a richer flavor, pours a bit thicker and is more nutrient-dense.

In other words, B is a better choice.

Using maple syrup: 1. Replace a cup of white sugar in recipes with a third-cup to a half-cup of maple syrup and reduce the recipe’s liquid measurement by a quarter-cup.

2. Mix into a bowl of oatmeal, millet or quinoa for breakfast.

3. Add to yogurt and fruit.

4. Toast your own granola with olive oil and maple syrup.

5. Drizzle on roasted sweet potatoes and squash.

6. Combine with soy sauce and orange juice for a delicious chicken marinade.

Wives banished from men’s Use of some pain relievers club should start their own may cause hearing loss Dear Abby: My husband and I live in an age 55-plus retirement community. We do many things together, but we also do things independently.

One resident decided to form two men’s clubs. One meets every week for breakfast, and the other twice a month at night. The members go to each other’s homes for the evening meetings.

Abby, the man who started these clubs is chauvinistic. He made a rule that women are not allowed in their own homes when their husbands host a meeting – “no skirts allowed.” Therefore, even though the wife prepares everything for her husband’s meeting, she’s told to slip out of the house before anyone arrives.

My husband agrees this is ridiculous and is considering quitting the club, but he has formed friendships with some of the men. The guys are bamboozled by the leader and tell their wives anything said at a meeting is “confidential.”

The obvious solution would be to meet at a coffee shop, but the man in charge says the homes provide a more intimate setting. My husband feels bad about it, and I don’t want him to quit a group he enjoys. Any suggestions? – Good Little Vegas Wife

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Dear Good Little Wife: It appears the founder of the clubs has his head stuck firmly in the 1950s. And while we can’t change that, I do have some suggestions.

The first is that the wives stop preparing anything and let the “bachelors” do it themselves or order takeout or deli for their meetings.

The second is that the “widows” join together for an evening of fun while the men are having their meetings. Of course, nothing that happens during these ladies’ evenings of fun should be shared with the husbands – including what they did or what clubs they may have visited.

P.S. Because your husband feels bad about how the women are being treated, perhaps he should consider attending only the breakfast get-togethers and seeing those men in the evening group he has bonded with independently.

Dear Abby: My girlfriend loses her keys, wallet, credit cards or iPad every day.

I have suggested ways to avoid losing her keys. For example, always use the same

pocket in her purse or put them in a bowl by the door.

She doesn’t do it. I think it is to spite me.

She now has become resentful that I am impatient about it. I’m frustrated because this is something that can be fixed easily, and I’m tired of searching for 20 minutes for whatever she has misplaced. What can I do? – Beyond Frustrated in

L.A. Dear Beyond Frustrated: The first thing you should do is understand your girlfriend isn’t doing this to upset you, and it’s possible she becomes as upset as you do when it happens. While I agree part of the problem is that she’s disorganized, it also could be her thinking is scattered. When she puts something down, she isn’t fully in the moment. Her thoughts may be on something else.

Frankly, there isn’t anything you can do about it. If there is a solution to your girlfriend’s problem, it’s that she should slow down and think about exactly what she’s doing when she’s doing it, which is sometimes easier said than done.

Dear Dr. K: I saw my doctor for some problems with my hearing. Why did she want a detailed list of my medications?

Dear Reader: When you think of risk factors for hearing loss, medications probably aren’t at the top of the list. But several overthe-counter and prescription drugs can harm the nerves in the inner ear. This can cause sudden hearing loss, ringing in the ears or vertigo (dizziness).

Two studies done by colleagues at Harvard Medical School suggest frequent use of even the most common pain relievers – ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) and acetaminophen (Tylenol) – may cause hearing loss. In the studies, women who took the pain relievers at least twice a week were more likely to have hearing loss.

More frequent usage further increased the risk.

It’s possible pain relievers damage the cochlea, the snail-shaped hearing mechanism in your inner ear. One author of the studies, Dr. Sharon Curhan, instructor in medicine at Harvard Medical School, explained ibuprofen can reduce blood flow to the cochlea. This could cause cell damage and death. And acetaminophen

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff may deplete an antioxidant that protects the cochlea from damage.

Does this mean you should think twice before popping a pill for a headache or back pain? As always, it’s important to balance risks and benefits. These medicines do provide good pain relief for many people. With short courses of over-thecounter drugs, any hearing problems that might develop likely would be temporary.

Ringing in the ears and vertigo also fade over time. Longer courses of prescription drugs (high-dose ibuprofen) would seem to be more likely to lead to permanent changes in hearing.

Pain relievers are not the only drugs that can affect hearing. Other commonly used drugs that can cause hearing loss include certain antibiotics, diuretics and drugs used to treat erectile dysfunction. Aspirin is a problem only when it’s taken too often or in too high a dose.

As I’ve said before, take all medications mindfully.

Always try to take the lowest

possible dose for the shortest amount of time to minimize the risk of side effects.

Studies like those I discuss above don’t prove ibuprofen and acetaminophen cause hearing loss. For example, it could be some other unrecognized illness caused study participants’ hearing loss and caused them pain – which then prompted them to take pain relievers.

Sometimes I get letters from readers who ask why I mention studies that suggest, but don’t prove, a particular practice may have health risks. My answer is I generally don’t mention such studies unless I think they are particularly strong scientifically.

Unfortunately, very few medical studies come to definitive answers. It usually takes many studies before a possible health threat is considered proven. But I also keep my eye on studies that don’t offer absolute proof but are strong enough to make me think twice – in this case, about the bedtime acetaminophen I take to relieve some arthritis pain.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - Do something creative during the months ahead. Monotony is the enemy. Strike back by engaging in hobbies and picking up skills that interest you. Strive to be competitive in whatever you pursue. Innovation will put you in the lead. This will be a year for change.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Make a point of visiting people who you miss or don’t get to see often.

Spending time with good friends can lead to better days ahead. Participation in something will prove beneficial.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Don’t take a financial risk. Joint ventures aren’t likely to turn out as planned. Generosity can lead to debt. Be careful what you wish for and how you spend your money.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Don’t meddle or take on something you cannot handle. Problems with friends or relatives will hinder your relationship with someone special. Put your priorities in order.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Infatuation and romantic encounters based on chemistry will turn out to be unfulfilling. Evaluate any personal or business partnership in the offing for its long-term potential.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Consider your domestic situation and make adjustments to counter any trouble you foresee. You can make financial gains if you invest in your skills or something that will offer greater stability.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Size up your personal situation and make the necessary adjustments to improve your position. Honesty in important relationships should be questioned. Make choices based on your needs, not what someone else wants.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Disagreements will result in delays. Keep your distance to make it easier to assess a situation. Meddling will lead to gossip that will tarnish your reputation.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Get involved, be a participant and show off a little. The people you meet along the way will add something special to whatever you are trying to accomplish.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Don’t question others when you should be perfecting your own approach. Focus on getting things done to gain respect and the support needed to reach your goals.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You need to use caution when choosing whom you want to work with.

You can get the most accomplished if you are organized and keep your personal and professional situation simple and functional.

Supposedly, confession is good for the soul. But Peter De Vries, a novelist and an editor who died in 1993, said, “Confession is good for the soul only in the sense that a tweed coat is good for dandruff.”

Regardless, I will confess to an error in today’s deal.

Look at the South hand. You open one spade and partner raises to two spades. What would you do now?

I was in Phoenix for the Fall North American Championships, playing for a few hours with friends. North was Eddie Kantar, a twotime world champion and an excellent teacher and author.

We were playing against Eddie’s wife, Yvonne, and Vinita Gupta, who was fresh from winning the Baze Senior Knockout Teams, her irst national title.

When Kantar raised to two spades, I thought I would keep my heart suit hidden, so jumped to four spades. Error!

Gupta led the diamond six. I put in dummy’s 10 and ruffed East’s queen. Then I led my low club, but West, who could see three majorsuit winners, went in with her ace and shifted to a low spade.

I had to lose two spades, one heart and one club.

If I had sensibly rebid three hearts, North would have raised to four hearts.

Then, it is true, I might have bid again, because North could have held, for example, king-third of spades and kingifth of hearts, when six hearts would have been excellent.

But we would have stopped in ive hearts. Then, after I drove out the club ace, cashed the heart ace, and discarded two spades on the king-queen of clubs, a spade-diamond crossruff would have produced 11 tricks.

The District's objective in issuing this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to provide a competitive means in which to select a qualified provider for a Guaranteed Energy Savings Contract. The contract shall follow the requirements of Article 19b of the School Code of the State of Illinois "School Energy Conservation and Savings Measures.â&#x20AC;?

Walkthroughs will be scheduled through the Operations Department.

A separate confidential packet (including floor plans, utility/energy consumption data, recent Health/ Life Safety amendment applications and school energy and maintenance grant applications) will be available upon request of the Provider. Providers agree that all information contained in the additional packet shall be treated as confidential and Provider shall not release the contents of the packet to any third party. To schedule a walkthrough and/or obtain a copy of the additional packet, contact: Jeff Carr Community High School District 155 One South Virginia Road Crystal Lake, IL 60014 Phone: (815) 455-8500 Fax: (815) 455-8514 E-mail: jcarr@d155.org Hours: 7:00 am to 4:00 pm Proposals shall be submitted in sealed form and received no later than 2:00 pm on Thursday, March 20, 2014 at the Community High School District 155, Center for Education, One South Virginia Road, Crystal Lake, IL 60014.

All proposals will be publicly opened and announced at the proposal due date, time and place. Proposals will be in accordance with said Article 19b of the School Code and the RFP guidelines.

The District reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to be the sole judge of the value and merit of the proposals offered. The District also reserves the right to waive irregularities in the proposal procedure, or accept the proposal that, in its opinion, will serve the best interest of the School District.

Any such decisions shall be considered final. The District reserves the right to reject a proposal from a provider who, in the District's opinion, does not exhibit past experience equal to the size and scope of this project. Failure to meet any of the required criteria will result in automatic rejection of the proposal.

In accordance with the Illinois School Code Article 19B-5, we disclose that Performance Services, Inc. participated in the preparation of these specifications.
