CHARLESTON, W.Va. – Some West Virginia lawmakers and Capitol staffers had a bad weekend after drinking raw milk to celebrate a law loosening restrictions on the product. Now state health officials are investigating whether the milk was to blame for their fever, vomiting and diarrhea, and weighing allegations the raw-milk party broke the law.

So far, state and county health officials say they haven’t received medical reports of illnesses related to the dangerous bacteria that can live in raw milk, which include Campylobacter, Listeria, Salmonella and E. Coli. The lawmaker involved, Del. Scott Cadle, who also stayed home sick Monday, blames his and other illnesses on an unrelated stomach virus circulating the Capitol.

RENT THROUGH THE ROOF Data: 1 in 5 in county spends more than half of income on housing

By CAITLIN SWIECA

cswieca@shawmedia.com In the decade she spent as a real estate broker before and during the 2007 financial crisis, Tracy Palma saw firsthand how the burst of the housing bubble affected people’s lives.

“You had this influx of people that lost their homes to foreclosure, and they flooded the rental market,” Palma said.

“You have these people that are trying to rebuild their lives. Of course they want to become a homeowner again, but they can’t because they literally have everything they have going to rent.”

Nearly a decade later, Palma is feeling the effects of that market shift. The Cary single mother of four said she rents a three-bedroom ranch for $1,650 a month while working full time and going to school full time.

She said she “constantly” looks for other rental options in Cary, but based on research she’s done, rents are often at least $500 higher than they had been before the housing crash.

Adding to her frustration, her rent is above the $1,402 threshold for a three-bedroom unit to receive assistance from the McHenry County Housing Authority, and she would likely have to move to a different town and change her daughters’ schools to meet that criteria.

An analysis of 2014 Census data from the national Make Room campaign revealed that 1 in 5 renting households in McHenry County spends more than half of pre-tax income toward rent and utilities, a level of housing that experts consider a “severe” burden. Another quarter of renters spent 30 percent to 50 percent of income on those expenses.

McHenry County Housing Authority Executive Director Julie Biel-Claussen said the agency’s waiting list for Section 8 Rental Assistance has been closed since April 2012 because of the influx of residents applying.

“That’s a big issue,” Biel-Claussen said. “Wages have not increased as much as rent, so [residents] still need more rental assistance to help them cover that.”

A 2008 study of the county suggested there was an unmet need for about 10,000 more affordable rental units, and while developments in Crystal Lake, Lake in the Hills, Cary and Richmond have been built or planned since, Biel-Claussen said the need still is there.

The problem is not confined to this

Eleanor Palitsch of Huntley shows Eugene Daniels (left) of McHenry an apartment at Green Trees Apartments in Huntley on Monday.

Daniels and his wife have struggled to find affordable housing in McHenry County. Green Tree Apartments is owned and managed by the McHenry County Housing Authority. This unit was being offered at the base rent of $375 a month. county: The Make Room study found that 25 percent of renters in Illinois’ 10 largest cities spend more than half of their income on rent.

Make Room Managing Director Angela Boyd said one of the group’s goals in focusing on Illinois was showing people that high rents are not confined to Chicago.

“A lot of times we think about smaller cities or rural areas as being much more affordable than larger cities,” Boyd said. “That’s not always the case.”

According to 2016 projections from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, McHenry County is

Kate Tripp of Marengo said she’s been frustrated by her search for a rental unit since moving back to the area from a town near Springfield, where she said she paid $450 a month plus utilities

for a two-bedroom apartment in a secured building.

“If I want something of that quality up here, it’s about $1,000 in rent,” Tripp said in an email. “And it’s not like I make a lot of money up here. In fact, I make about the same.”

Although Tripp said she “lucked into” an affordable basement apartment for the time being, her search of apartments, duplexes, condos or townhomes closer to her workplace in Woodstock has yielded no results because many places she can afford are rundown and

CRYSTAL LAKE

Woodstock man removed McHenry County state’s attorney campaign sign, police say

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Crystal Lake police charged a 51-year-old Woodstock man with theft after they said he took a sign belonging to state’s attorney hopeful Patrick Kenneally while carrying signs supporting opponent Dan Regna on Tuesday.

Deputy Chief of Operations Tom Kotlowski said a man who supports Kenneally called police after seeing John Walsh, of the 16000 block of Route 14, removing

the sign from the corner of Pyott and Rakow roads in Crystal Lake. Police were alerted to the incident just before 3 p.m., Kotlowski said.

Kotlowski said there were no other Kenneally John Walsh signs in Walsh’s truck, only those for Regna.

“He admitted to putting those signs up,” Kotlowski said, adding he did not know if Walsh had replaced the sign he was accused of stealing with an opponent’s sign.

Kenneally, a current assistant state’s attorney, and Regna, a former assistant state’s attorney, are competing for the Republican nomination for the office’s top spot to replace Louis Bianchi, who is not seeking re-election.

Kotlowski said Regna told police Tuesday he was unaware of Walsh’s activity.

The theft charge against Walsh is a Class A misdemeanor, which is punishable by less than a year in jail and a fine of up to $2,500. Kotlowski said Walsh posted bond and was released Tuesday.

5 GOP candidates running in McHenry County Board District 6

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com Republican voters in rural McHenry County Board District 6 have to narrow down a field of five candidates to two in next Tuesday’s primary.

Incumbent Mary McCann and challengers Ersel Schuster, James Kearns, Preston Rea and Kelly Liebmann are running for the two open seats representing the district. It covers the mostly agricultural western half of McHenry County, including all or parts of Harvard, Marengo, Union, Hebron, Wonder Lake, Woodstock, Huntley, Greenwood and Bull Valley.

The five have differing opinions when it comes to the issue of making McHenry County more friendly to business, which supporters hope will mean more jobs and a lower property tax burden.

Kearns, a Huntley resident who is Grafton Township’s supervisor, said the county needs to improve its main arterial roads and push for getting a full interchange at Interstate 90 and Route 23 south of Marengo, and streamline the process by which businesses can acquire needed permits.

Rea, who is presently Alden Township’s supervisor, also said the county should streamline the permit process, but added that the County Board needs to resist the urge to make things more difficult.

“McHenry County departments need to be more efficient to provide information and permits in a timely manner.

This is especially true within Planning and Development, Stormwater [Management] and the Health Department.

McHenry County needs to be sensitive to any new ordinances that require additional compliance, permitting and

To McCann, of rural Woodstock, the County Board has made significant strides in streamlining the process. She helped rewrite the county stormwater ordinance, and she pointed out that the 2015 approval of the Unified Development Ordinance addressed multiple issues stemming from a lack of uniform land-use requirements.

For Liebmann, of Wonder Lake, reducing property taxes isn’t enough. She supports imposing a moratorium on collecting more taxes on property improvements. To Liebmann, the aim of new growth should be to reduce the tax rate rather than grow the tax base.

Schuster, a former County Board member making another attempt at getting back on, said true tax relief will come if the county and other taxing bodies band together to insist that state and federal lawmakers put an end to the steady stream of unfunded mandates that many officials blame for rising taxes.

“The simplest and most effective way to be more business-friendly is to kill all unrealistic, busybody laws and regulations imposed by county, municipal, state and federal governments,” said Schuster, of Harvard.

The candidates had varying opinions on the I-90 and Route 23 interchange. Both Kearns and Rea steadfastly support the project, while McCann

and Schuster are taking a more neutral stance pending the results of a study the County Board helped to fund.

“The full interchange at Route 23 and I-90 cannot come soon enough,” Kearns said.

But Liebmann, a logistics director for a company specializing in touring entertainers, warned that the interchange will not be the economic engine of an industrial hub that its supporters claim it will become.

“A full interchange will not guarantee the reduction of taxes and cost of living that burden the residents of McHenry County. One can also extrapolate that any economic incentives granted to businesses in an effort to lure them to McHenry County will only increase this burden,” Liebmann said.

McCann, who owns a berry farm, said her experience in both financial and land-use matters makes her the best candidate for the job. The other incumbent, Diane Evertsen, is voluntarily term-limiting herself and not seeking re-election.

“I am very much a data-driven decision-maker. I work to educate board members from the east side of the county as to what issues are important to the many agricultural businesses in District 6, as well as issues important to the many constituents who have moved to the rural areas to enjoy the quality of life that comes from living in the country,” McCann said.

Kearns said he will resign his supervisor position if he is elected to the County Board. Rea, if elected, said he would resign once his replacement was appointed by the township board.

The winners of the primary will face off in the Nov. 8 election against Democratic challenger Allison Barnard of Marengo.

Police dept. offers free gun safety locks

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – In an effort to promote responsible gun ownership, the Woodstock Police Department is giving residents free gun locks and instructions on how to properly use them, Police Chief Robert Lowen said Wednesday.

Lowen said tragic incidents of children finding unsecured firearms can be avoided through proper gun storage.

“We are just trying to alleviate the risk.”

Woodstock police chief Police said hiding a gun in a closet or a drawer is not considered safe storage.

“We are just trying to alleviate the risk,” Lowen said.

Cable locks are available 24 hours a

day, seven days a week at the Woodstock Police Department, 656 Lake Ave. Lowen said gun owners should not bring their guns to the police department.

Police also are encouraging residents who own guns to talk to their children about guns, as children might be tempted to “play” with them.

Parents should tell children not to go looking for guns, police advised. Children should know not to touch a gun if they find one, and to tell an adult immediately, police said.

Disgraced cop’s widow faces conspiracy charge

Melodie Gliniewicz accused of misusing funds from police explorers post

By ALLISON GOODRICH

agoodrich@shawmedia.com Melodie Gliniewicz was charged Wednesday with conspiracy on top of multiple criminal charges she already faces related to the alleged misuse of funds from the Fox Lake Police Explorer Post 300 accounts, according to the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office.

Melodie The 51-year-old wid- Gliniewicz ow of disgraced Fox Lake Police Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz was indicted in January on four counts of felony disbursing charitable funds without authority and for personal benefit, and two counts of felony money laundering in connection with the police youth program, which her husband ran.

The most serious charges carry a potential prison term of up to

seven years. The new charge does not change the penalties Melodie Gliniewicz faces, Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office spokeswoman Cynthia Vargas said in an email.

Lake County State’s Attorney Michael G. Nerheim said additional charges are not uncommon as prosecutors prepare for a potential trial.

“We are continuously evaluating and reevaluating cases, and sometimes add charges when appropriate,” Nerheim said in a statement.

Since Sept. 1, when Joseph Gliniewicz was found fatally shot, authorities have said he staged his suicide to look like a homicide out of fear of getting caught stealing from the youth program.

Melodie Gliniewicz’s attorneys contended after the initial indictment that she was a “victim of her husband’s secret actions.” She pleaded not guilty to those charges last month.

Healthy foods and colon cancer SPONSORED BY

ALWAYS LOOKING AHEAD

SM

By Diane Krieger Spivak Eating healthier can go a long way toward reducing your risk of colon cancer.

“The World Health Organization and the American institute for Cancer Research have gathered the data,” said Lora Anderson, registered oncology dietician and outreach coordinator at Centegra Health System. “There is convincing evidence that increasing your dietary fiber - as well as probable evidence that garlic, milk and calcium - help to reduce your risk for colon cancer.”

Conversely, there are certain foods that increase your risk of colon cancer.

“We know that red meat, processed meat, and having a body that’s over fat increases our risk for colon cancer,” Anderson said. “The types of foods that can reduce risk for colon cancer have dietary fiber, from plants”.

Increasing your intake of fruits, vegetables and whole grains such as bread and cereal, as well as nuts and seeds, plus increasing your amount

of dairy products like yogurt, cheese, cottage cheese and other dairy foods, can help reduce your risk for colon cancer, said Anderson.

“An easy way to help incorporate these foods into your diet are to make them part of your everyday,” Anderson added. “It doesn’t need to be a fancy recipe or method of preparation. Add berries to your whole grain cereal in the morning. Have some yogurt midmorning. In the afternoon use whole grain bread for your sandwich and have some vegetables as your side. In the evening cook your chicken in garlic with roasted broccoli on the side. These are different ways that you can add those fresh plant foods to your diet and reduce your risk for colon cancer.

“Exercise and a healthy lifestyle are also important for reducing overall cancer risk,” said Anderson. “Even adding ten minutes a day helps to reduce your risk for all cancers, including colon cancer.”

The Soothing Sound of Guaranteed Income Many investors currently own or are considering annuities. After all, they are sold as safe investments, offering dependable and predictable returns, no matter what the market does. And that sounds very appealing, especially after suffering through the worst bear market since the Great Depression. So what’s the problem with annuities?

What You Might Not Know about Annuities Could Come Back to Haunt You Before you put your hard-earned money into an annuity, or if you already own one, please call 1-866-607-7129 for a special report, Annuity Insights: Nine Questions Every Annuity Investor Should Ask. It could help save you hundreds of thousands of dollars and untold financial heartache.

The vast majority of annuities are really complicated insurance policies that make it very difficult to fully understand the implications and unintended consequences. And once you buy into an annuity, it can be a very difficult and potentially very costly investment decision to reverse. That’s why it is vital you “look before you leap” and ensure that you have “your eyes wide open” before you purchase an annuity. And if you already own an annuity, this free report is just as valuable as it can help you sort out the good, the bad and the ugly aspects of annuities.

• The different types of annuities and the advantages and disadvantages of each • Why annuities can be complex to understand • What you need to ask an annuity salesperson when evaluating his or her product • The inflation risk, tax implications, estate planning considerations and typical annuity fees

This free report could save you from making one of the biggest investment mistakes of your life. And for owners of annuities, the free analysis could be a life saver.

Rebates average nearly $13,000.* Please call for details and to see if you might qualify.

School District 300 Board ties bonus to goals for superintendent

By ALLISON GOODRICH

agoodrich@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – The Community Unit School District 300 Board on Tuesday approved a resolution that included a set of lofty goals that, if reached, could mean a bonus for Superintendent Fred Heid.

After the unanimous approval, an addendum for incentive goals, or “stretch goals,” will be attached to Heid’s current five-year contract but only will relate to the current school year.

“This incentive piece is new,” board Vice President Joe Stevens said. “It’s never been done in this school district to my knowledge.”

Also included in the resolution was a 4 percent increase to Heid’s base salary, retroactive to July 1, 2015, based on the board’s annual evaluation, as well as changes to the vacation provisions to incentivize Heid to take more vacation time.

Stevens said the stretch goals are

E

objectives Heid can aim for only after the board determines that he’s reached the goals included in his general job description.

According to district documents, if the board determines stretch goals are met, Heid could become eligible for “incentive compensation” of up to 20 percent of his base salary.

Board President Anne Miller said all of the incentive goals are in line with District 300’s strategic plan, which was approved in September. Some of the goals, according to board documents, include increasing the graduation rate to 88 percent in 2015-16 from 86 percent in 2014-15; upping ACT performance from 20.7 percent to 22.7 percent; and reducing the number of in-school suspensions from 3,177 to 2,860, among several others.

This year will be a trial run of a practice Stevens said is more common in the private sector than the public. If it produces positive results after the first year, he added the board is hoping the concept

to reach for more ambitious goals will become embedded in the district’s culture among other administrators.

Heid said performance pay is not a new concept to him after coming from a Florida school district that had adopted such a concept, but added he was excited about the challenges laid out in the addendum.

“I think it’s a unique opportunity, and it’s one that keeps you engaged, keeps you competitive ... but it doesn’t create a false push,” Heid said. “There’s value in the goals we’ve established, and they’re aligned to our strategic plan.”

As an addendum, the incentive goals and compensation piece is not part of the contract, which means it must be renewed each year by board action.

Thomas L. Oeffling was born Dec. 30, 1937, in Johnsburg, and will be remembered as a loving father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend to many. Tom was best known for his gentle and kind spirit, his sense of humor, and his loyalty as a friend. He found great pride and enjoyment in his children and grandchildren. He is admired by many as a true role model who led with quiet grace and dignity.

After high school, Tom served our country by enlisting in the Marines for two years and was stationed at 29 Palms in California. Then he married Andrea Brennan on Feb. 17, 1962, at St. John the Baptist Church in Johnsburg. Tom was a lifelong resident of Johnsburg and member of St. John the Baptist Church. He also served on the District 12 Board of Education and many will remember him as the coach of several Little League and St. John’s basketball teams. He served as secretary of the Johnsburg Community Club and ticket captain for Johnsburg Old Timers. He enjoyed playing Monday night golf with close friends. He was a fan of all sports, but none more than baseball; he was a devoted Cubs fan his whole life, was a member of the renowned Johnsburg Tigers and played softball for Hettermann’s Tavern.

He was a union carpenter at Joseph Frett & Son for 45 years. After retirement, he enjoyed spending winters in New Smyrna Beach, Florida, where he golfed and relaxed with friends, both new and old.

Tom is survived by his wife of 54 years, Andy (née Brennan) Oeffling; his children, Elizabeth “Beth” (John) Gerritsen of Victoria, Minnesota,

Laura (Patty Mitchell) Oeffling of Libertyville and Tom (Megan) Oeffling of Johnsburg; grandchildren, John, Jeff and Joe Gerritsen, Kate Mitchell and Tommy, Wynne and Maura Oeffling; five siblings, Janice Tonyan, Ardelle (Ron) Conway, Bill (Debbie) Oeffling, Phil (Linda) Oeffling and Julie (Bill) Ledger; brothers-in-law, Jim McDonough, and Robert (Judy) Brennan; sisters-inlaw, Pat Brennan and Ellen Brennan; as well as many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.

Tom was preceded in death by his parents, Alfred and Marie (née Hiller) Oeffling; his parents-in-law, John and Kathryn (née McKendry) Brennan; brothers-in-law, Edward Tonyan and Gerard Brennan; and sister-in-law, Moira (née Brennan) McDonough.

The family would like to thank all of his caregivers, especially Charmaine, Maggie, Eileen, Beverly and Debbie.

For those wishing to send an expression of sympathy, donations may be made to St. John the Baptist Church or A Foundation Building Strength for Nemaline Myopathy in lieu of flowers.

The visitation will be held Thursday, March 10, 2016, from 4 until 8 p.m. at Colonial Funeral Home 591 Ridgeview Drive, McHenry. Visitation will continue on Friday, March 11, 2016, at St. John the Baptist Church 2302 W. Church St., Johnsburg starting at 11 a.m. A funeral mass will begin at 11:30 a.m. Interment will be at churchyard cemetery.

STATE

Federal claim alleges other harassment victims

By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD – A former state treasurer’s employee whose accusation of sexual harassment annihilated Dan Rutherford’s 2014 gubernatorial bid has named four others who allegedly complained of unwanted advances in an updated federal court filing.

Edmund Michalowksi’s February 2014 lawsuit during then-Treasurer Rutherford’s primary campaign for governor tanked his hopes as the most viable Republican alternative to eventual Gov. Bruce Rauner.

Rutherford denounced the suit as a political dirty trick, but two years later, Michalowski persists. Three of the names of alleged victims that surfaced in court late Tuesday match those in a Jan. 28, 2014, email from a Michalowski attorney obtained by The Associated Press under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act. The email was disclosed last week after a two-year appeal in which the state’s public access counselor declared that the Rutherford administration had improperly withheld documents from AP in February 2014.

Rutherford attorney Dan Fahner criticized the filing, Michalowski’s fourth, and said “he has changed his

Teen gets probation for assaulting Sikh man

CHICAGO – A suburban Chicago teenager who punched and shouted racial slurs at a Sikh man last year was sentenced to two years’ probation on Wednesday after pleading guilty to a hate crime charge.

Investigators said the September incident happened during a road-rage incident in Darien. Under the plea agreement, the teen also was ordered to pay nearly $5,000 in restitution and perform 200 hours of community service – including time in the Sikh community – in exchange for prosecutors dropping felony aggravated battery charges, according to the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office.

The teen also was accused of punching an officer when confronted at his home,

“Plaintiff’s constantly evolving allegations and claims are without merit and Mr. Rutherford looks forward to demonstrating their falsity,” Fahner said in a statement.

Michalowski filed the updated lawsuit after Judge Joan Lefkow dismissed all other claims last month – including that Michalowski was forced to do political work for Rutherford on state time – and directed Michalowski to focus a new complaint only on sexual harass-

although charges related to that incident also were dropped.

The Sikh Coalition, which had urged prosecutors to pursue a hate crime charge, said the plea was significant.

The lawsuit accuses the officers of ignoring other potential suspects and evidence that supported Beaman’s alibi of being in Rockford when Lockmiller was killed, The Pantagraph reported.

Exonerated Ill. man wants his lawsuit sent to jury

TUSCOLA – An attorney for a man who was wrongfully convicted of murder in the death of a 22-year-old Illinois State University student argued in a Douglas County courtroom that a jury should hear claims that three Normal police officers, who have since retired, botched the investigation.

Alan Beaman of Rockford served 13 years in prison for the slaying of his ex-girlfriend, Jennifer Lockmiller, who was found strangled and stabbed in her Normal apartment in August 1993. His conviction was vacated by the Illinois Supreme Court after DNA evidence pointed to other suspects.

Morningstar CEO gives $35M to University of Chicago

CHICAGO – The CEO of Morningstar and his wife have donated $35 million to the University of Chicago.

The school made the announcement Wednesday, saying Joe Mansueto and his wife Rika’s gift will be used to launch the Mansueto Institute for Urban Innovation. University officials said they will soon start searching for a director of the think tank. An opening date and location haven’t been set.

The head of the investment research firm said in a statement that the rise in large cities has created “some of society’s most difficult problems and most promising opportunities.”

The institute will focus on issues such as health care, housing and violence.

ment.

Michalowski cites six instances in which he claims Rutherford made unwanted sexual advances or comments from 2011 to 2013, including an overnight stay at Rutherford’s Chenoa home in which Michalowski contends his host entered his bedroom and touched him sexually.

When he complained about it and other incidents to chief of staff Kyle Ham and deputy chief of staff Curt Conrad – also named as defendants along with Rutherford’s campaign committee – Michalowski contends he was labeled a “troublemaker” and denied promotions and raises.

While his initial lawsuit mentioned others whom Rutherford allegedly harassed, it did not identify them. The new filing names four.

The law firm of Michalowski’s attorney, Dana Kurtz of Hinsdale, also represents two of the other people who were identified – Ashvin Lad and George Daglas – and said they have given their approval for the AP to name them.

Lad, Daglas, and another former Rutherford employee, Patrick Carlson, filed a separate federal lawsuit last summer claiming Rutherford fired them in July 2014 in retaliation for cooperating with investigators reviewing the sexual harassment claims.

Ill. businessman gets more than 2 years for tax evasion

SPRINGFIELD – A Douglas County businessman was sentenced to more than two years in prison for failing to pay income tax.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Springfield said 49-year-old Lorenzo Shane Stewart of Tuscola was ordered Tuesday to serve two years and six months in prison and three years of supervised release. He also was ordered to pay more than $1.1 million in restitution to the IRS. Stewart pleaded guilty in August to two counts of income-tax evasion for failing to pay more than $1.1 million in income tax for 2008 and 2009. He admitted to putting his business, Ten Acres Excavating, under an employee’s name so he could operate and receive income from the business without claiming it on tax returns.

His prison sentence begins May 8.

The Obama administration launched the new strategy in Clinton, Sanders debate MIAMI – Fighting for Florida and beyond, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders tangled in an intense debate Wednesday night over who’s the true friend of American Hispanics, trading accusations over guest worker programs “akin to slavery” and the embracing of “vigilantes” against immigrants.

Facing off just six days before Florida gives its verdict on the presidential race, Clinton faulted Sanders for repeatedly voting against a 2007 comprehensive immigration reform bill; he faulted her for opposing a 2007 effort to let people who were in the country illegally obtain driver’s licenses.

Had the immigration package passed back then, Clinton said, “a lot of the issues we are still discussing today would be in the rearview mirror.” Sanders retorted that he opposed the legislation because it included a guest worker program “akin to slavery.”

Trump’s rivals seek points ahead of Illinois primary

By SARA BURNETT

The Associated Press

LISLE – As the race for president shifted Wednesday to contests in Illinois and other big states, Donald Trump’s rivals were spending millions to try to blunt his momentum while other GOP candidates looked to put points on the board in a state that typically favors moderate Republicans.

The largest prizes next Tuesday will be winner-take-all primaries in Ohio and Florida, where the top vote-getter will leave with 66 and 99 delegates, respectively.

Illinois awards its 69 delegates through a twopronged vote. The statewide pick for president gets 15 delegates, and voters allot the remaining 54 by electing delegates in each congressional district who are aligned with a candidate.

So Ohio Gov. John Kasich, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz could pick up delegates even if Trump, the billionaire businessman who’s leading statewide polls, wins Illinois’ presidential preference vote.

That’s bringing a flurry of campaigning to the area as Trump tries to widen his lead and the other Republicans argue they’re the strongest alternative to be the GOP nominee.

Kasich told hundreds of voters at town halls in Lisle and Palatine on Wednesday that he plans to remain positive as the race moves on to states where he says he’s in “basically a dead heat” with Trump and Cruz. He said the way he conducts himself on the campaign trail is an indication of how he’ll govern – by reaching out

to others, maybe even playing basketball with members of Congress.

“I refuse to get down in the mud to be elected president of the United States,” Kasich to huge applause from a crowd in Palatine. “You have to show respect to people.”

He also laid out plans to improve the economy by reducing regulations on businesses and cutting corporate taxes, and got a slap on the back from the CEO of Lisle-based Navistar, who said Kasich helped the truck manufacturing business grow in Ohio.

Cruz will speak Friday at an Illinois GOP fundraiser downtown Chicago and give the keynote speech at a party dinner in the northwest suburbs. Trump has scheduled an evening rally at the University of Illinois at Chicago, while Rubio has said he’s sticking around must-win Florida.

Beyond simply picking up delegates, doing well in Illinois also will send a message, said Republican U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, who’s backing Rubio.

“Whoever wins Illinois will be able to say they have the ability to win a blue state and a state in the Rust Belt,” Kinzinger said. “If somebody doesn’t get any delegates, that’s a big deal.”

On the Democratic side, both former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders have been running TV and radio ads in Illinois. Clinton, who has held a healthy lead in Illinois polling, is holding a getout-the-vote rally Thursday night in Vernon Hills. Sanders held events at two Illinois universities in recent weeks.

Mourners pay respects to Nancy Reagan

By JOHN ROGERS

The Associated Press SIMI VALLEY, Calif. – Nancy Reagan began her final journey to her husband’s side Wednesday as a police motorcade carried her casket down an empty freeway lined with saluting firefighters and mourners holding hands over their hearts in tribute to the former first lady.

The roadside reverence reflected her late husband’s touch with the common man and followed some of the route his own funeral procession took in 2004, eventually winding its way up to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, where volunteers in blue jackets stood behind a guardrail festooned with small American flags.

The day began with a private ceremony for family and close friends at a funeral home in Santa Monica, followed by a public viewing at the library.

People came from near and far to pay tribute to the widow of the 40th president, who was respected for her grace, strength and unfailing loyalty to her husband during this two terms in office and his final struggles with Alzheimer’s disease.

Retired teacher Mary Ellen Gruendyke, who arose early so she could drive nearly 100 miles from her Riverside home, said she admired Mrs. Reagan for her “Just Say No” campaign against drugs and the president for infusing a sense of patriotism in the country.

“Ronald Reagan was one of the best

presidents we’ve ever had, and I admired them both as a couple for their love story and the support they showed to each other,” said Gruendyke, who wore a colorful Ronald Reagan souvenir scarf around her neck.

Shuttles bused groups of mourners to take turns walking quietly in a circle

around the casket covered in white roses and peonies – Mrs. Reagan’s favorite flower.

The mood was somber, and many people wiped away tears. More than 1,000 people paid their respects in the first two hours, according to the library.

The public viewing came hours after the small motorcade traveled 45 miles from the coast to the hills above Simi Valley northwest of Los Angeles. The public viewing was to continue for two days leading up to the funeral scheduled for Friday.

Mrs. Reagan, who died Sunday at 94, planned the smallest details of her funeral. She selected the funeral’s flower arrangements, the music to be played by a Marine Corps band and the list of guests invited to the private memorial.

And just as she was always by her husband’s side in life, she will be laid to rest just inches from the president on a hillside tomb facing west toward the Pacific Ocean.

As a heavy flow of traffic moved in the other direction, the normally contested highway lanes were kept wideopen for the hearse as it drove beneath a massive flag hung by firefighters from an overpass.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – Iran test-launched two ballistic missiles Wednesday emblazoned with the phrase “Israel must be wiped out” in Hebrew, Iranian media reported, in a show of power by the Shiite nation as U.S. Vice President Joe Biden’s visited Jerusalem.

The new missile firings were the latest in a series of tests in recent days, aimed at demonstrating that Iran will push ahead with its ballistic program after scaling backing its nuclear program under the deal reached last year with the U.S. and other world powers.

Israel, long an opponent of Iran, offered no comment on the test, though Biden issued a strong warning over any possible violation of the nuclear deal.

“A nuclear-armed Iran is an absolutely unacceptable threat to Israel, to the region and the United States. And I want to reiterate which I know people still doubt here. If in fact they break the deal, we will act,” he said.

Biden’s comments came after meeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who strongly opposed the nuclear deal.

The tests, however, don’t violate the accord. The landmark deal, which led to Iran dramatically scaling back its nuclear program, does not include provisions against missile launches.

Also, when the nuclear accord came into effect on Jan. 16, the Security Council lifted most U.N. sanctions against Tehran including a ban it had imposed in 2010 on Iran testing missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads – a ban that likely would have covered some of the missile fired this week. To deal with the restrictions in the nuclear agreement, the council adopted a resolution last July which among other measures “calls on” Iran not to carry out such tests.

At the United Nations, there is likely to be a debate about whether Iran is still required to abide by the ballistic missile test ban under council resolutions. Iran said none of its missiles are designed to carry nuclear weapons and so the resolutions do not apply.

IDOMENI, Greece – After welcoming hundreds of thousands of people into its heartland, Europe seems to be finally closing its doors.

The thousands of people massing at Greece’s northern border are incredulous they won’t be allowed onward to its prosperous countries, but after a year of dithering European leaders seem resolved now to keep all but a select few from going any further.

“This is horrible, unbelievable, unbearable. There is war in my country, and they are closing the border,” said Mahmoud Hassan, a 23-year-old Syrian.

“Where are we supposed to go? Please if you can do anything – help us. The situation is very, very terrible.”

A relentless rain Wednesday after an overnight thunderstorm added to the misery in the overflowing camp at Idomeni, which now consists of thousands of small camping tents set up in nearby fields and along railway tracks.

The camp turned into a sodden, muddy mess, with refugees huddling in tents and under ponchos handed out by volunteers to ward off the worst of the wet and cold. Parents covered their children with whatever they could, sometimes resorting to plastic bags. In the brief intervals in the rain, long lines formed in the mud for sandwiches, tea and soup.

A lucky few managed to set up their tents on the train station platform, whose awning provides some shelter, while others slept in disused train carriages.

EU and Turkish leaders agreed at a summit Monday to the broad outlines of a deal that would essentially outsource Europe’s refugee emergency. They said people arriving in Greece having fled

war or poverty would be sent back to Turkey unless they apply for asylum.

For every migrant sent back, the EU would take in one Syrian refugee, thus trying to prevent the need for people to set out on dangerous sea journeys, often arranged by unscrupulous smugglers.

But Greece has a notoriously slow asylum process, and a crippling sixyear financial crisis that has left unemployment at about 25 percent. Few of those stuck in Idomeni could envisage a future in Greece as a viable option.

“Greece is a poor country, for us and for [its] people,” said 17-year-old Ahmed Merza from Syria’s Qamishli, who had been in the camp for eight days. “I don’t know anything. It’s bad news for us, like a bomb.”

Shortly after the summit, countries along the Balkan route decided to allow through only people with valid EU visas and nobody has crossed through the gate in the razor wire-reinforced fence in Idomeni since 6 a.m. Monday.

For the nearly 14,000 people in and around the camp, the news about the border closures was a crushing blow, with many just unable to fathom how Europe could turn away people fleeing war. A few dozen sat on the railway tracks in protest – a frequent occurrence in the camp, where refugees occasionally try to block the passage of freight trains to press their point.

“We’re not here to stay. We are here to pass only,” said Sami Yanes, a 24-year-old information technology student from the Syrian capital of Damascus hoping to continue his studies in Germany.

“We are going to keep protesting and keep doing what we are doing until they know we are human beings and we deserve simple human rights,” he said as he sat on the tracks in the pouring rain after seven nights spent in the camp.

ANOTHER VIEW

More rhetoric in Springfield If you believe words and the tone of political rhetoric matter, then you might have a few words for how politics played out last week, at the state and presidential level.

Disappointing. Discouraging. Frustrating. Just plain sad.

At the state level, while legislators engaged in “Groundhog Day” levels of inaction, their leaders and Gov. Bruce Rauner instead ratcheted up the rhetoric yet again.

Just two and a half weeks ago, Rauner stood before the General Assembly and declared, “I stand before you today with respect for our co-equal branches of government ... and a deeply-rooted desire to work with each and every one of you to right our ship of state.”

By Feb. 29, his frustration had boiled into a news conference that left many scratching their heads about his strategy for doing that.

Rauner and Speaker Mike Madigan have left no doubt they’re at war, and the governor took to the press to complain the speaker is delaying a deal to help higher education so that he can use it as a campaign issue. This time, the governor also doubled down on Senate President John Cullerton, despite previous efforts by the two to compromise.

“You know what President Cullerton said to me in private? He said, ‘Bruce, I’ve lived in Mike’s shadow for 37 years. I’m not gonna step out now,’ ” Rauner told reporters. “Can you believe that? Can you believe that? You wonder why Illinois is in such deep yogurt, ladies and gentlemen.”

Even in the business world from which Rauner comes, it’s hard to fathom the idea that belittling your rival by revealing an unflattering comment – allegedly said in what was a private meeting – is smart negotiating strategy. Trust? If Cullerton had a shred of it for the governor before, it’s blown out of the water now.

Not that Madigan’s team, who sees the governor as bearing sole responsibility for the higher education debacle, has been a model of restraint and reason, either. Among the choice reaction quotes from Madigan spokesman Steve Brown were observations that the governor is “a little wobbly” and “a little more irrational than usual.”

Perhaps the most optimistic thing that could be said about Illinois’ political rhetoric at this point is that it’s still more genteel than the war of words between Donald Trump, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz.

But none of this back and forth inspires any confidence the state’s top leaders are sincere when they talk about finding compromise, or bemoan the collateral wreckage their actions are creating.

That’s a disturbing thought.

Trump crushes Reagan’s GOP

By JOE SCARBOROUGH

Special to The Washington Post Friday morning, America and the world will say goodbye to Nancy Reagan in California.

Tuesday, however, it was Michigan and Mississippi that may have signaled the end of Ronald Reagan’s fabled coalition that ruled Republican politics for 40 years.

After absorbing a brutal wave of attacks from the GOP establishment, including a nasty broadside from Mitt Romney, a thrice-married Manhattan billionaire who once loyally supported Hillary Clinton and who continues to lavish praise on Planned Parenthood swept to victory Tuesday night. Donald Trump easily won the night on the strength of a working-class coalition that included evangelicals in Mississippi and Reagan Democrats across Michigan.

These are the same working-class voters who feel abandoned by

their president, by their government and by the Republican Party.

Bible-toting Sen. Ted Cruz should have won Mississippi.

Ohio Gov. John Kasich should have won nearby Michigan. Sen. Marco Rubio should have finished as a runner-up somewhere, anywhere.

Instead, Rubio and rest of the GOP field were left watching in horror as Trump crushed all comers at the polls and then used his victory speech to hawk steaks, wine and the most fabulous magazines you will ever read.

Trump’s big wins in Michigan and Mississippi were not the worst news of the night for the GOP ruling class. Instead, that dubious distinction was saved for the complete collapse of Rubio’s campaign one week before Florida’s crucial primary. For Republican leaders, Rubio’s timing could not have been worse.

Florida’s winner-take-all

primary was rigged by the establishment to provide a firewall for Jeb Bush or Rubio back when wise men spoke knowingly of an “establishment lane.” Instead, as with most of the maneuvers masterminded by the Republican National Committee, the Florida firewall now seems to be playing into the hands of the man Beltway Republicans hate the most.

And after Tuesday night, the only politician who has any chance of stopping Trump seven days from now is the second-most hated politician in Washington – Cruz.

I will defer for now and instead spend time watching some of the Gipper’s old speeches, saying goodbye to his first lady Friday, and after that, sorting through the wreckage that once was Ronald Reagan’s proud Republican Party.

needed in our political campaigns but have been lacking in our dialogue for years.

Evan Thomas, political professor at Princeton University, said this sense of service for our country has been missing since the President John F. Kennedy administration years.

The lessons of history will be lost again unless we, as Americans, know it is our right to live peacefully and with a common sense of dignity and justice. We live in a world economy; however, this economy must not be based on war.

America is great already. We have problems, but, as Kennedy said, “Our problems are man-made; therefore, the solutions are man-made also.” Solutions come from our cooperation, education, determination and the refusal to give up on ourselves.

To the Editor: I support Joe Tirio for McHenry County recorder.

I met Joe through his concern for our neighborhood and our high property taxes. Through Voters in Action, I’ve seen how Joe leads, and I believe he will take steps to lower taxes for us and act to cut waste out of the recorder’s office. Neither one of his opponents have offered any plan to save the taxpayers money.

I also support Steve Reick for state representative in the 63rd District. Steve is campaigning to replace Jack Franks.

Steve plans to help out his neighbors in Woodstock by reducing expenses at the state level. Respectfully, what has Jack done to represent us lately?

Big money wins elections when voters don’t show up. Let’s start by doing what we’ve been trained for so long not to.

Let’s declare the causes that unite us and use common sense. Take action and vote.

To the Editor: As I have known and admired the Cowlin family for many years, voting for Judge James Cowlin for circuit judge will be an easy decision.

It also is reassuring to learn he has more than 33 years legal experience and was recommended for reappointment as an associate judge by more than 90 percent of the State Bar Association voting members in 2011 and 2015.

Judge Cowlin has been honored by community associations and is a mentor to new judges. His appointment as circuit judge was made by the Illinois Supreme Court in September 2015.

When I consider this information, plus my personal knowledge of the family, I know it is right to vote for Judge James Cowlin – a truly good, judicious man.

Thank Franks for pension red flag

To the Editor: The 18 McHenry County Board members who claim their part-time service entitles them to taxpayer-funded pension benefits will have to prove they actually worked the 1,000 hours required to be eligible.

The health care and pension contributions they receive total about $55,000 a year, on top of their $21,000 salaries, and for the whole board, it adds up to around $1 million each year, footed by the taxpayers.

When asked to respond to claims his signed affidavits were false, John Jung, who has served for more than 20 years, merely said Rep. Jack Franks should worry about Springfield.

Instead of saying he was eligible or clarifying the situation, Jung took a shot at the public servant who brought this brewing scandal to light.

IMRF already has cast doubt that when a board member spends less than 200 hours a year in board and committee meetings, proving another 800 hours of preparation is a tall task.

Franks should be thanked for protecting the taxpayers, and the County Board must be held accountable for its actions.

I am grateful to have Franks, who puts politics aside and fights to hold the line on taxes. It’s time to stop the tax machine in McHenry County, and the tax machine is the McHenry County Board.

McHenry County needs to assign a special prosecutor to this mess. If board members signed affidavits but do not meet the requirements, they should be held responsible for pension fraud, and the money should be returned to the taxpayers.

To the Editor: My mom, Kay Bates, knows what it is to have to go through difficult times.

She’s been there and has great empathy for the struggles of others. Kay Bates, as a single mom, raised three children, and with energy, commitment and perseverance, made certain we all graduated from college. Wasn’t easy, but mom knew how to pinch pennies. The St. Mary’s rummage sale each spring in McHenry created great anticipation during these frugal years in the Bates household.

Yet Kay Bates worked very hard while raising her children, starting full time with the chamber of commerce in 1996 and, later, working her way to president.

All of us children took note of mom’s work ethic and caring for the business community. One of the reasons each of her three children pursued business careers.

Vote for Kay Bates for McHenry County Board, District 4.

Tampon tax: Does being female carry unfair costs?

“Being a woman is so expensive.”

By COLLEEN LONG and JENNIFER PELTZ The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Margo Seibert and Natalie Brasington don’t think women should have to pay a “period tax,” and like a growing number of other women, they are publicly questioning whether being female in the U.S. carries unfair costs.

The pair are among five New York City women who filed a lawsuit last week arguing that it was unconstitutional for the state to levy sales tax on tampons and sanitary napkins while offering medical product exemptions to many other items used by both genders, such as lip balm, foot powder and dandruff shampoo.

The case, they say, is about more than the few cents in tax levied on each pack.

Sick of the social taboo, and frustrated by a lack of access for some to a staple, these women and others are talking very publicly about menstruation and gaining political traction that would have been impossible a generation ago.

A national push to abolish sales tax on tampons is gathering steam, led by social media campaigns such as #periodswithoutshame. At least seven states are now considering legislation. Illinois lawmakers were holding a hearing on the latest proposal Wednesday. Connecticut legislators discussed the issue Monday.

Cosmopolitan magazine launched an online petition, and even President Barack Obama has questioned why the items are taxed.

“I tend to talk about my period quite a bit, to anyone who will listen,” said Seibert, a 31-year-old actress and founder of an online campaign that promotes a “shamefree” period.

Brasington, a 31-year-old photographer, said the tax affects women disproportionately and is a genuine burden for poorer women.

“Being a woman is so expensive,” she said.

Jennifer Weiss-Wolf, a vice president at the NYU School of Law’s Brennan Center for Justice, said she began writing articles and op-eds on “menstrual equity” when she discovered food pantries were desperate for sanitary napkins and tampons because poor women can’t afford them.

The tax campaign reflects a broader debate over “gender pricing,” or charging women and men different rates for similar products and services, from haircuts to razors to T-shirts.

New York City’s consumer protection

Attorney Zoe Salzman (left) and plaintiff Natalie Brasington brought forward a class action lawsuit to end New York sales tax on feminine hygiene products. agency studied the cost of 800 common household items last year and found that products marketed to women cost, on average, 7 percent more than similar products for men.

“Women’s outcry over this issue isn’t just about the tax on tampons. It’s a reflection of the routine unfairness that seeps into our everyday lives,” said Sonia Ossorio, president of the National Organization for Women in New York. “At the end of the day, the tampon tax movement is one small way to challenge the broader sexism that still persists. Because that’s the real taboo here.”

While women’s advocates have long lamented that many women’s products cost more, their providers say there can be legitimate reasons – a more decorative product or more complicated haircut, for instance. And some have noted that women sometimes pay less: for life and auto insurance, for example.

Nationwide, 40 states tax feminine hygiene products, deeming them non-necessities or even “luxury items,” while making exceptions for products as similar as adult incontinence pads.

Currently, five U.S. states exempt tampons and other feminine hygiene products from their sales tax, which varies around the country from about 2.9 percent to as high as 7.5 percent. Another five states have no sales tax.

New York taxes tampons and sanitary

napkins as tools “to control a normal bodily function and to maintain personal cleanliness.”

The 4 percent state sales tax on the products costs New York women millions of dollars a year; estimates range from about $7 million to twice that, a minute fraction of the state’s $142 billion budget.

Advocates say the cost, however small it may seem, is burdensome for poor women, who also can’t purchase the products with food stamps.

“Having one’s period is not a luxury,” state Assemblywoman Linda Rosenthal, a Democrat who has proposed abolishing the tax. “Because of our biology, we bear this extra cost, and the state should not compound it.”

The state Department of Taxation and Finance declined to comment, citing the lawsuit. Two major manufacturers of feminine hygiene products, P&G, the maker of the Tampax brand, and Edgewell Personal Care Co., the maker of the Playtex brand, didn’t respond to inquiries this week about the tax issue.

Zoe Salzman, the attorney on the New York case, said they’d push to get a judge to rule the tax unlawful.

“If men had to use these products every month, they would already be tax-exempt,” she said.

Meanwhile, the legislative proposal has yet to get a hearing, although supporters are hopeful about its prospects, especially since Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo recently said the tax should be abolished.

That wasn’t the sense in Utah, where a legislative committee last month nixed a proposal to tax-exempt the items. While some members of the all-male committee supported the idea, others questioned where the state would draw the line on what to tax in the future.

The Los Angeles Times, in an editorial last week, expressed similar concerns in opposing a tax exemption that California lawmakers are considering.

Overseas, Canada removed taxes on the items last year, and British leaders, who have set the tax at the lowest possible level, have considered doing away with it altogether.

NORTHWEST HERALD ALGONQUIN – Nordstrom Rack, offering discounted merchandise from the upscale retailer Nordstrom, will open in the Algonquin Commons shopping center this fall, the Seattle-based company announced Wednesday.

The Nordstrom Rack store will take the place of two vacant storefronts within the city’s largest shopping center, occupying 31,000 square feet of retail space.

The off-price division of Nordstrom sells clothes and accessories for women, men and children from full-line Nordstrom stores, as well as other specialty items from Nordstrom brands at 30 percent to 70 percent off regular prices, the company said.

“We’re thrilled by the customer response as we’ve continued to open Nordstrom Rack stores in Greater Chicago,” Nordstrom Rack President Geevy Thomas said in a statement. “We continue to focus on finding excellent locations across the area. With its great mix of retail, we’re excited to be opening at Algonquin Commons.”

Once it opens this fall, Nordstrom Rack should bring added commercial activity to Algonquin Commons, a shopping center along the Randall Road cor-

Nordstrom Rack will take over the former OfficeMax and PetSmart, two longtime retailers at Algonquin Commons that permanently closed last year, according to previous reports from the Northwest Herald.

Michigan-based Art Van Furniture is working to open a 48,000-square-foot store this spring at the former Gordman’s, which also closed last year.

Last month, specialty footwear chain Stride Rite started a final closeout sale as it prepares to close this spring after 11 years in business at the shopping center.

The Nordstrom Rack in Algonquin represents the first move for the company into the McHenry County area. Once it opens, the company will operate Nordstrom Rack stores in 15 Chicago areas, including Schaumburg and Northbrook, the company said.

Career setbacks can move professionals forward We all have setbacks in our careers, and unfortunately, some of us lose jobs.

All of us should expect setbacks, but none of us has to feel paralyzed when they happen. We always can use a setback as a chance to move forward, grow and do something we always wanted to do.

Should a setback happen, you should first take a couple of days to define your talents and interests. The book “What Color is Your Parachute” helps a person identify his or her special talents and, most importantly, the job that could pull a person out of bed each morning with “a song in their heart.”

A setback could be viewed as an opportunity to develop that dream business.

When we love our jobs, we have the best chance for success. Once you determine what you really want to pursue, you should: • Make certain those close to you are supportive.

• Have enough resources to support your family for at least six months.

• Write a business plan and gain financing.

Cast of ‘Hamilton’ to perform at White House

Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson arrives Wednesday at court for a federal bankruptcy hearing in Hartford, Conn. Jackson has been ordered to explain Instagram photos, with one depicting him next to piles of cash arranged to spell out “broke.”

Jackson filed for bankruptcy last year after a New York City jury ordered him to pay $7 million to a woman who said he posted her sex tape online.

50 Cent in bankruptcy court to explain cash piles to judge HARTFORD, Conn. – Rapper 50 Cent is expected in a Connecticut courtroom on Wednesday afternoon to explain photos of him with piles of cash to the judge in his bankruptcy case.

Judge Ann Nevins ordered the rapper, whose name is Curtis Jackson III, to appear in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Hartford. Nevins said last month that several photos posted on Instagram raised concerns that Jackson wasn’t being truthful about his finances.

The photos include ones showing Jackson sitting next to piles of cash arranged to spell “broke,” him in a bed with wads of cash, and cash stacks in a refrigerator.

Jackson filed court papers on Tuesday saying the cash wasn’t real and he isn’t hiding any assets.

The U.S. trustee’s office is asking Nevins to appoint an examiner to review Jackson’s assets.

Jackson’s lawyers say in court documents that the bankruptcy filing was the result of several factors, mainly a $17 million verdict against him in a legal dispute over headphone products and a $7 million verdict against him in a lawsuit filed by a woman who said he posted her sex tape online without her permission.

The $17 million verdict in 2014 involved what Jackson’s lawyers describe as a failed business venture with Sleek Audio to develop headphone products to be marketed under the 50 Cent name. His lawyers say Sleek failed to meet a 2011 deadline to have the headphones ready for production, and the deal was terminated.

NEW YORK – The cast of the mega-hit Broadway show “Hamilton” will make a quick trip to the White House on Monday to perform songs from the show for the first family and answer questions from schoolchildren.

Lin-Manuel Miranda, the show’s writer and star, announced the invitation during his weekly video series Wednesday.

The musical tells the true story of Alexander Hamilton, the nation’s first treasury secretary. It is told by a young African-American and Latino cast and has a varied score that ranges from pop ballads to sexy R&B to rap battles.

The Obamas have been big boosters of the show. President Barack Obama took daughters Sasha and Malia to see it last year after first lady Michelle Obama caught it last spring.

Elton John’s photo collection to feature in Tate exhibition

LONDON – Images from Elton John’s vast collection of 20th-century photography are going on display at Britain’s Tate Modern.

The gallery announced Wednesday that the exhibition, “The Radical Eye,” will feature more than 150 images by modernist masters of photography including Man Ray, Alexander Rodchenko, Andre Kertesz, Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange.

Tate Modern says John owns “one of the world’s greatest private collections of photog-

raphy” – some 7,000 images – and the show includes portraits of some of the century’s great cultural figures, including Georgia O’Keeffe, Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Jean Cocteau.

The musician said “each of these photographs serves as an inspiration for me in my life.” Tate says the exhibition, which opens Nov. 10, is the start of a long-term relationship between John and the London gallery.

‘Downton Abbey’ ends run before 9.6 million viewers

NEW YORK – “Downton Abbey” said goodbye to an estimated 9.6 million viewers on Sunday night, lowering the curtain on PBS’ most successful series in ages with its fourth most-watched episode.

Only the premiere episodes of the last three seasons had larger audiences, topped by the 10.2 million in 2014, the Nielsen company said. The numbers will rise when time-shifted viewing is taken into account; the 2014 season premiere reached 15.5 million viewers after a month.

“These six seasons of ‘Downton Abbey’ have truly been a fantastic ride for all of us in the public television family,” said Paula Kerger, PBS president and CEO. The household help on “Downton Abbey” proved no match for Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio as television stars.

Fox News Channel’s telecast of last Thursday’s GOP presidential debate was the week’s most-watched program with just under 17 million viewers.

But his legacy was defined by the Beatles, for the contributions he made, and for those he didn’t.

Before the Beatles, producers such as Phil Spector and Berry Gordy controlled the recording process, choosing the arrangements and musicians; picking, and sometimes writing, the songs (or claiming credit for them).

The Beatles, led by the songwriting team of McCartney and John Lennon, became their own bosses and were among the first rock groups to compose their own material. Inspired by native genius, a world’s tour of musical influences and all the latest stimulants, they were seekers of magic who demanded new sounds.

Martin was endlessly called on to perform the impossible, and often succeeded, splicing recordings at different speeds for “Strawberry Fields Forever,” or for “Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite,” simulating a calliope with keyboards, harmonica and a harmoni-

Know what damages are recoverable SPONSORED BY

By C.R. Walker Accidents and injuries happen often.

It’s the nature of human being. We’re imperfect and going to make mistakes.

Millions will be involved in car crashes alone this year and that’s just one of the many ways where someone can be injured, resulting in hospitalization, rehabilitation, missed work and more.

After such happens the big questions that follows is “Who is responsible for paying these bills?”

That’s when it’s time to use your smartphone to dial a seasoned and compassionate firm to represent you, such as Franks Gerkin McKenna (FGM Law) in Marengo.

Just be sure to not make the call while driving. Many of the road traffic injuries today are caused by distractions, including some due to negligent drivers who are texting while driving or fiddling aimlessly on their smartphone.

Keep in mind that while traffic acci-

dents are the most common ones that can result in injuries and claims, there are others, including pedestrian accidents, work-related injuries, defective product/ faulty equipment, slips and falls, assault, medical malpractice, unforeseen circumstances and more.

Some injuries and losses are easier to calculate than others and when it becomes more difficult to do so, it’s imperative to have representation that can help you fight for what you deserve. A car that is damaged in an accident and your initial medical bills may seems pretty easy to determine because the bills are right there in front of you, but there’s far more to be considered with regard to future medical costs.

“There’s pain and suffering money as well as for disfigurement,” FGM Law attorney Steven J. Greely Jr. said. “There’s potential disability and its cost if they continue to have more problems and need additional medical care.”

There’s also the price of missing work, the loss of future earning ability and other losses to consider with your lawyer.

The Beatles were a miracle not only of talent, but of chemistry. No producer was better suited for them than the resourceful and open-minded Sir George Martin, who dedicated himself to serving their vision instead of imposing his own. And no act Martin worked with before or after approached the Beatles’ historic power.

Martin, the elegant Londoner behind the band’s swift transformation from rowdy club act to musical and cultural revolutionaries, was remembered Wednesday with tributes to his rarely erring taste, his musicianship and his contribution to developing the technology of pop music.

“If anyone earned the title of the fifth Beatle it was George,” Paul McCartney said Wednesday after the announcement of Martin’s death at age 90.

Many felt he deserved the title, but he was too modest to claim it while producing some of the most beloved songs and most popular and influential albums of modern times – “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” “Revolver,” “Rubber Soul,” “Abbey Road” – elevating rock LPs from ways to cash in on hit singles to art forms,

“concepts.” From a raw first album in 1962 that took a day to make, to the months-long production of “Sgt. Pepper” just five years later, Martin would preside, assist and sometimes stand aside as the Beatles advanced by giant steps as songwriters and sonic explorers.

They composed dozens of classics, from “She Loves You” to “Hey Jude,” and turned the studio into a wonderland of backward tape loops, multi-tracking, unpredictable tempos, unfathomable segues and kaleidoscopic montages. Never again would rock music be defined by two-minute love songs or guitar-bass-drums arrangements.

“Once we got beyond the bubblegum stage, the early recordings, and they wanted to do something more adventurous, they were saying, ‘What can you give us?’ ” Martin told The Associated Press in 2002. “And I said, ‘I can give you anything you like.’ ” His own talents were duly recognized. He was nominated for an Academy Award for producing the soundtrack to the Beatles’ “A Hard Day’s Night.” He won six Grammys, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, in 1999. Three years earlier, he was knighted.

Besides the Beatles, Martin worked

Online therapy in its infancy Dear Dr. K: I’ve been looking into cognitive behavioral therapy to help with my anxiety.

It would be convenient to do this therapy from home and, surprisingly, there seem to be many online CBT options. But would the therapy be less effective if I didn’t have a personal connection with an actual therapist?

Dear Reader: Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) attempts to correct ingrained patterns of negative thoughts and behaviors. It’s an effective treatment for depression, anxiety and other behavioral health problems. It also is widely used to help people with chronic diseases cope with that burden.

Face-to-face visits with a therapist can be inconvenient and may be expensive (depending on your insurance). And there are online CBT options. But the question is: Are they effective?

I spoke to my colleague Dr. James Cartreine, a licensed clinical psychologist and a researcher at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital. He pointed out because these online programs are relatively new, there are only a few evaluations of how effective they are. He noted a team of researchers recently reviewed five well-designed studies comparing online CBT to face-to-face visits with clinicians providing CBT. The patients all were working-age adults being treated for social anxiety or panic disorder.

All of the online therapies delivered treatment through written content. Some programs added text-messaging and discussion forums. Most also involved some communication with a mental health clinician, usually a psychologist, over email or private messaging systems. This could be quite limited, however. In one study, psychologists were limited to spending only 10 minutes a week on each patient. Finally, most included homework assignments that

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff participants did between sessions.

All treatment groups, both face-to-face and online CBT, had significantly improved symptoms. One study found better outcomes for the online treatment. The others found equal results between the two types.

While these results are encouraging for people who are interested in online CBT, I’d emphasize they are not conclusive. First of all, five small studies do not provide a lot of evidence. Furthermore, researchers tend to submit studies with a positive result for publication. They don’t always seek to publish, and journal editors often don’t want to publish, studies showing treatment was ineffective.

More important, CBT is not one thing.

What I mean is a pill is a pill, whichever doctor has prescribed it. But CBT is a treatment that is practiced differently by different therapists, and those therapists are not all equally skilled. So it’s hard to know from published studies whether the particular online CBT program you are interested in will be effective.

I’m not knocking online CBT; I’m just saying it is in its infancy. I hope most online CBT programs prove to be effective.

They not only are more convenient for the people who use them, they also require less time on the part of the therapists.

That would allow therapists to offer treatment to more people.

Dear Abby: I’ve DEAR ABBY been estranged from my three Jeanne siblings, their Phillips spouses and their families for 35 years – my choice. There has been no correspondence, and I have seen them only at our parents’ funerals.

Since we are all in our 80s, I anticipate there will be funerals for us in the next decade. If I go first, there is no problem. However, I’m considering not attending their funerals or those of their spouses. My grown children say I must attend because I’m their brother. I’m concerned I might be a distraction or there could be a confrontation. Besides, I still remember what caused my estrangement and I just don’t want to see them. I know I’m stubborn, but am I wrong? – To Go Or Not To Go Dear Go Or No: I disagree with your children.

People attend funerals to pay their respects to the deceased and/or comfort the family who has suffered the loss. If, after 35 years, you show up at the funeral, you could, indeed, be a distraction – unless it has been so long nobody recognizes you.

Dear Abby: Is it wrong to have no interest in grandchildren? My wife is five years older than I am, and she’s elated with our new grandchild.

I’m only 42, and I feel I’m too young to be a “Gramps.” I prefer to be free from kid activities and enjoy my adult pursuits.

I have raised children for the past 20-plus years and I think it’s my stepdaughter’s turn to be a parent. My wife is all gung ho to watch the grandchild anytime she’s free, but I’m not interested at all. Am I wrong for wanting my own time and space with my wife? – Too Young

‘It wasn’t our night’ Second-winningest season in Prairie Ridge history ends

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com ROCKFORD – Prairie Ridge’s starters headed for the bench with 3:36 remaining in the fourth quarter, oneby-one stopping for hugs from Wolves coach Corky Card.

Prairie Ridge hoped for a celebrative finish to its first sectional game in nine seasons and instead was left with a somber ending provided by St. Charles East, which had every answer imaginable for a team that had not lost since Dec. 23.

“I thought our chances were good,” Card said. “I thought we would play better than we did, and we didn’t. It just came down to it wasn’t our night.”

The Saints hit outside shots, handled Prairie Ridge’s trapping zone defense and thoroughly enjoyed themselves in a 68-46 victory Wednesday in

East (18-12) meets Rockford Auburn (23-6) at 6:30 p.m. Friday for the sectional championship. Prairie Ridge finished its second-winningest season in school history at 25-4.

“At the beginning of the year I had no idea what to expect, a bunch

Prairie Ridge, which had won 15 consecutive games, allowed more points than it had in any game since a 76-51 loss to Boylan on Dec. 19 in Jacobs’ Hinkle Holiday Classic.

The Saints caught fire early behind guard T.J. Ford’s three 3-pointers and took a 16-6 lead, but Prairie Ridge scored the next nine points of the game. East played a strong second quarter and led, 34-25, at halftime.

Continued from page 2 “I watched that defense against multiple opponents the last week in preparation,” East coach Patrick Woods said. “That’s pretty much all we worked on. Their kids play really hard, they’re really active.

We’re lucky in the fact that we don’t have a true big and all of our guys can handle the ball and shoot.”

East broke the game open with 8-of9 field-goal shooting for a 22-5 advantage in the third quarter. The lopsided score caught both teams off-guard.

“I mean, it just kind of happens, you know?” said forward Zach Hondlik, who led the Saints with 13 points. “It feels good to win this big, blow teams out. I mean, we don’t come here expecting to do that, but we come expecting to win, and we come

VIEWS Mike DeFabo much fun I had because they took me in,” senior guard Logan Card said. “I just wanted to have that feeling, too. It’s awesome to win games. When you’re with your best friends, it’s even better. This was definitely my favorite year I’ve ever had.”

Looking back, the 2003-04 team was a different breed. Brett Cole was on his way to becoming Prairie Ridge’s all-time leading scorer and 6-foot-6 forward Todd Babington was a force down low.

In other words, that team had scorers and size. This team had neither. And that’s a compliment.

“You take a look at the kids and the size we are, they really just found a way to win every night,” Corky Card said. “Some nights we didn’t shoot well and we rebounded. Sometimes we turned people over. Sometimes we couldn’t turn people over and we had to shoot better.

This group, as a whole, I thought had a little bit of toughness to just find a way to win on a night-in-and-night-out basis.”

A group that started playing together as fourth-graders on assistant coach Dave Otto’s FCA Wolves team packed up its bags one last time. A team that prides itself on passing now will pass the tradition on to another generation.

“We just played together and made the extra pass,” senior guard Christopher Bradshaw said. “That was the story of our season. I just couldn’t be more proud of these guys. It’s a great group. Our seniors have been together for so long, since about fourth grade. We had such a fun year. I couldn’t ask for anything more.”

Forward Christopher Bradshaw led the Wolves with 13 points and eight rebounds.

The 1-2-2 ball press that had given so many teams fits was not much of an issue for East.

“They knew coming in what we were doing and prepared for that,” Otto said.

“What made them different from other teams was they had a lot of poise and a pretty big height advantage. They played amazing and handled our pressure and deserved that win.”

Woods felt the 94-foot college court gave his team an edge because it had more room to maneuver against Prairie Ridge’s 1-2-2 zone defense. Card thought the Saints’ size, with five starters 6-3 or taller, helped them deal with the Wolves’ defense.

ROCKFORD – As the fans shuffled out of Rock Valley College arena, a young group of Prairie Ridge fans raced onto the vacant court.

The rogue pack of Wolves fired up make-believe jump shots and tossed a yellow foam baseball at the hoop. Wearing a Wolves T-shirt and a baseball cap, 11-year-old Brock Card toed the 3-point arc and launched up a shot.

Nearly 12 years ago, on March 16, he was born at 2 a.m., the second son in a basketball family. His birthday just so happened to come the morning of Prairie Ridge’s supersectional game against Moline.

“All I remember is I was ticked that I couldn’t go to the game,” said Betsy Card, Brock’s mother and Wolves coach Corky Card’s wife.

To date, that supersectional team remains the most successful in Prairie Ridge history.

It won the only sectional title in Wolves boys basketball history and set a school record with 29 wins.

While Brock chased the foam ball around the court Wednesday night, the team with the second-most wins in school history was in the locker room below the court in the midst of its final postgame talk.

Prairie Ridge had just lost to St. Charles East in a Class 4A Rock Valley College Sectional semifinal, 68-46. The St. Charles East student section deemed it a “Blowww Outttt.” Wolves coach Corky Card called the ending a “fiery crash.”

It was both, yes. But it’s important to keep it in perspective – a bad loss in what was otherwise a good season.

The Wolves finished the season 25-4. They won the school’s first regional title since 2007.

They finished with single-digit losses for the first time since 2005-06.

4 BEARS FREE AGENCY

Bears off to good start with Trevathan

The problem with writing about free agency during the first couple of days of a new league year is, if you don’t write fast, lineup cards most likely will have changed before you’re done.

As of this writing, the Bears have added inside linebacker Danny Trevathan and offensive tackle Bobby Massie, BEARS they’ve INSIDER re-signed cornerback Hub Tracy Porter, Arkush running back Jacquizz Rodgers and OT Nick Becton and Matt Forte has left to join the New York Jets.

I’d give Day 1 – to this point – a solid B for Bears general manager Ryan Pace.

Going into free agency there were five players the Bears could target knowing that getting any two of them would have made for a very good offseason.

Those players were Muhammad Wilkerson, Eric Berry, Kelechi Osemele, Trevathan and Malik Jackson.

Once Wilkerson and Berry were tagged, you knew landing two out of three was going to be tough, and I cannot applaud Pace any louder or longer for not getting involved in stupid money for Jackson.

That is always a recipe for disaster, and Bears fans must absolutely be grateful Pace knew better.

It would appear with the signing of Massie that the Bears’ plan is to move Kyle Long back to guard, unless he’s going to left tackle and they’re signing another guard because Massie can only play on the right side.

the top three or four guards in the league, this is an upgrade over him at right tackle and Patrick Omameh or Vladimir Ducasse at guard, but a line of Charles Leno Jr., Slauson, Hroniss Grasu, Long and Massie will strike fear in the hearts of no one, and more work definitely still is needed on the offensive line.

The re-signing of Porter at about $5.5 million a year for three more seasons makes sense; I just wish we could count on him staying healthy and he hadn’t faded down the backstretch last season.

Unfortunately, there are no guarantees in the NFL, so the move feels right.

I am not upset that Forte is gone; it’s a tough business and stuff like this happens. But I am very disappointed the Bears didn’t make him a reasonAP file photo able offer to stay. He deserved that and Broncos linebacker Danny Trevathan speaks to reporters before Super Bowl 50 on Feb. 4 they still need him.

JETS FREE AGENCY

Jets wait on Fitzpatrick, in talks with Forte

By DENNIS WASZAK JR. The Associated Press

NEW YORK – It’ll be Ryan Fitzpatrick or Plan B – whatever that might be – at quarterback for the New York Jets.

As the NFL’s free agency period began Wednesday, Fitzpatrick hit the open market and left the Jets’ situation under center unsettled. Both sides have said they would like a reunion, but it appears it will have to be at the right price.

After a season in which he set the Jets’ franchise record with 31 touchdown passes, Fitzpatrick was expected to draw interest from a handful of

teams. But the veteran quarterback could be waiting things out to see how other teams’ situations play out.

With Peyton Manning retiring this week and Brock Osweiler surprisingly leaving Denver for Houston, the Broncos need a quarterback and could turn their focus toward Matt Forte Fitzpatrick.

The Jets still have former starter Geno Smith and Bryce Petty, a fourthround draft pick last year, on the roster.

But Fitzpatrick had a terrific season

after assuming the starting job when Smith had his jaw broken by a punch from then-teammate Ikemefuna Enemkpali during training camp.

Fitzpatrick established solid chemistry with receivers Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker while helping the Jets to a 10-6 season, missing out on the playoffs.

The Jets cut a few complementary players Wednesday in receiver Jeremy Kerley and tight end Jeff Cumberland, saving $3.2 million on the salary cap.

New York also lost its starting running back when Chris Ivory signed with Jacksonville.

But the Jets turned their sights to Matt Forte, the former Bears running back who is a two-time Pro Bowl selection and ranks second in Bears history to Hall of Famer Walter Payton in yards rushing (8,602), receptions (487) and yards from scrimmage (12,718).

New York was in discussions to sign Forte to replace Ivory, but the team made no announcements as of Wednesday night. Marshall posted his approval on Instagram, however, with a picture of him and Forte on the turf during their Bears days along with the message: “I Wuv You!!!!” He also urged Jets fans to “follow your new WorkHorse.”

CUBS SPRING TRAINING

Ace’s objective is to get to October healthy as possible

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

good; and he struck out the first two and last two batters he faced.

“We had a conversation about potentially going a third,” said Arrieta, who knew that conversation would go nowhere – not in his first start of the spring, or his 14th start of the season if he wants to argue for another inning late in the game with a big lead.

“Those bullets that I do have left are going to be more important in October,” Arrieta said of the controlled workload plan this year that might prove tougher on him than the best lineups he faces.

“Obviously, the competitiveness that I’ve had since I was a kid was full-go last year. I didn’t want to come out in the seventh or eighth,” he said. “But at the end of the day, what’s most important for our team is what I really care about.”

Arrieta, who went 16-1 with a 0.86 ERA in his final 20 starts last season, racked up 2482/3 innings, including the playoffs, last year – a career high by 72 innings.

He admits fatigue set in for his final two playoff starts.

“If [following the plan] means only going 210 (innings) up to October instead of 230, I’m fine with that,” he said.

Even if days like Wednesday that inspire conversations as he had after the second inning remind him that it might be a challenge to adhere to the plan if left to his own devices.

“It would have been OK if I threw a third (inning). There was zero fatigue,” he said. “I think the work I was able to do was plenty for today.”

Arrieta slots into a normal everyfifth-day schedule at this point, along with Lester and Lackey starting the next two days. And all expect to be ready for 100-pitch workloads in their opening starts.

But monitoring workloads this year for a staff that is critical to the Cubs’ big ideas for October – and that can’t afford a long-term injury to a key starter – has been a topic from Day 1 of camp.

“Last year going through a pennant race for the first time (with this group), certainly we pushed some guys very hard,” general manager Jed Hoyer said. “We’re going to be aware of that.”

WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

More power to them: Homers creating a buzz

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

GLENDALE, Ariz. – It’s early, so let’s not get carried away. But those 12 home runs in their first six Cactus League games sure did put a charge in the White Sox camp.

“South Side Hit Men” appeared in newspaper copy and on social media. “Raker’s dozen” was tweeted.

And a sense of optimism, albeit measured, was palpable.

Fans dig the long ball, hitting coaches like it, Todd Frazier too, and more managers besides Earl Weaver never look a potential three-run gift horse in the mouth.

After ranking last in the American League with 136 home runs in 2015, when the Sox finished 76-86 and ranked last in runs scored, the addition of Todd Frazier (35 home runs with the Reds last season) and Brett Lawrie (16) has injected some needed power onto the roster.

Even the little guys, 5-foot-8 Adam Eaton (14 homers, second on the team last season) and new 5-7 shortstop Jimmy Rollins (12 with the Dodgers) muscled up last year and are on the list of 12 Sox

A’s thump White Sox

And teams that score a lot of runs are always in the game. Sometimes GLENDALE, Ariz. – Sonny Gray pitched three they even win more than they lose.

“It’s always significant,” Sox hitting innings in his first start of the spring and then coach Todd Steverson said of the Sox’s was named Oakland’s Opening Day starter early power surge. “A game is a game. after the Athletics hammered the White Sox, People can say, ‘Aw, it’s spring training,’ 12-3, Wednesday. but there have been a lot of spring trainOakland manager Bob Melvin said posting ghosts.

Gray gave up three hits and a run while Steverson sat alongside manager striking out four. Meanwhile, A’s batters Robin Ventura, pitching coach Don pounded Sox pitching for 19 hits and scored Cooper and since-departed bench coach Mark Parent last year and winced a lot. in every inning but the eighth.

“Now, there are more guys with raw abilities to take it out of the park,” Steverson said. “It’s great to have that arsenal where you can come back, instead of always having to manufacture something. Up and down the lineup it’s a lot deeper than we’ve had.”

Ace left-hander Chris Sale, for one, is invigorated by the Sox’s power potential, and why wouldn’t he be?

“That’s exciting,” Sale said. “It really is. It’s fun to watch.

“With that you can’t help but to build confidence and momentum going forward.”

There’s obviously more to scoring runs than the long ball, so not to worry: The Sox aren’t putting their entire attack in the home run basket.

“I always tell our hitters, if you hit 30 homers in 600 at-bats, you have 570 to do something else,” Steverson said.

“Thirty looks good, but what did you do with the 570? Did you help the team?

Did you move a runner? Did you get a guy in from third? I put a lot of credence in having quality at-bats and what the game calls for.”

Home runs, of course, are always welcome.

“Hit ’em all,” Steverson said. “Hit as many as you can.”

MESA, Ariz. – Jake Arrieta was so effective Wednesday in his first game action since the National League Championship Series that he said he was thinking about starting the next inning with an intentional walk if he’d been allowed to pitch one more.

Just so he could work on some things with a man on base. And if he could have found a way to get the guy on second, even better.

“But how do you intentionally put a guy on second base?” Arrieta asked.

He wasn’t joking.

To the delight of a sold-out crowd at Sloan Park, the guy with the most dominant finish in major league history last

year picked up where he left off in a sixup, six-down first start of the spring, in a 5-3 loss to the Cleveland Indians.

And it’s probably just as well he didn’t get the chance to figure out how to arrange those baserunners.

“The biggest thing is I feel great,” said the reigning NL Cy Young Award winner. “The timeline is laid out in a manner that’s going to prepare me for Opening Day, and that’s what I’m excited about.”

Pushing the first starts for frontline Jake Arrieta starters Arrieta, Jon Lester (Thursday) and John Lackey (Friday) into the second week of the Cactus League schedule is all part of the big-picture plan of preserving their health and strength for a season the Cubs expect to last an extra month.

Nobody on the roster is more important to reaching that goal than Arrieta.

His fastball reached 96 mph on the stadium radar gun; his command was

Spring fishing is heating up quickly

The ice is almost gone, if not already gone from the fishable waterways in our area. Walleyes are hitting regularly on the Fox River. Panfish are on fire as soon as the water opens up on virtually every northern Illinois lake and pond. I even have received a couple of emails with pictures of some small largemouth bass being taken already from ponds.

Not many people chase northern pike, but that would be my choice for an enjoyable way to spend a few hours on a nice early spring afternoon.

Here is what you’ll need to do.

Find water that holds a population of pike. There aren’t a whole lot of them.

Check the fishing guide books for McHenry and Lake counties to see if you can find some prospective water.

Of course, the Fox River and the DuPage River both hold good populations of northern pike.

In the early spring, you’ll find bluegills and crappies in the shallows.

These fish are looking for warm water.

Of course, the north sides of lakes and ponds warm up the fastest. On rivers and streams and moving bodies of water such as the Fox and the DuPage, backwater areas off the main river warm very quickly and draw the panfish like a magnet. These are the areas that you need to key on.

Pike are voracious feeders on the small panfish and will be chasing them into very shallow water. If you don’t think you can find pike in a mere foot or two of water, you would be incorrect, my friends. They will be there.

Fishing will be best in the latter part of the morning and the early and middle portions of the afternoon on warm days right now. The warmer days are best and bright sun is a good thing rather than a deterrent to fishing right about now.

You don’t need the same kind of tackle you’d haul to Canada for a summer pike trip to chase northern Illinois pike in March. Medium-weight tackle is plenty and a 10-pound test Power Pro line is plenty for these critters. It’s not that these pike aren’t big enough for heavy tackle because you certainly can find some nice ones. It’s just that these pike aren’t really explosive fighters in the cold spring water. They are a little lethargic and the lighter equipment should be able to handle them.

Your presentation needs to be slow because early spring pike aren’t really big on expending a lot of energy to chase down a meal. Your presentation also needs to be small, or at least smaller than what you normally would use to hunt warm-water northern pike.

Now, a slow presentation and shallow water generally leads to problems. You’ll cast into shallow water and your lure will sink to the bot-

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley tom really quickly and you will find your hooks snagged on wood or rocks or something else on the bottom before you know it. What you are going to have to do is start retrieving your bait the absolute first second that it hits the surface of the water.

Now, hearing that, most fishermen will start reeling too fast. That isn’t what I mean. Reel slowly and just start reeling before the lure gets a chance to sink more than a foot down into the water. Keep the retrieve slow and steady. If you are working the lure at the proper slow speed, you’ll notice the lure wants to sink. Don’t speed up your retrieve.

Instead, lift your rod tip up high to keep the lure up higher in the water column.

You have to balance keeping the speed of the retrieve slow with keeping the lure up off the bottom. It takes practice.

This is a good time of the year to be tossing spinnerbaits for pike. White spinnerbaits are my favorite spring color. A floating crankbait such as the Mann’s 1-minus will work, too. These lures float but will run down about a foot when retrieved. An in-line spinner like a Mepp’s is also a good choice for early spring pike.

The window of opportunity for this excellent early spring pike fishing is a very small one. This week appears to be the ideal time to get out there and give it a try. Boy, it sure is nice to be writing about open-water fishing again. I hope to see you on the riverbanks this week.

FISHING REPORTS Northern Illinois: Dave Kranz from

Dave’s Bait, Tackle and Taxidermy in Crystal Lake reports: “Most small ponds are open and the Fox River is relatively free of floating ice. I have had many customers heading up to the McHenry Dam in boats and from shore.

Walleye are being caught on a oneeighth ounce jig head and an extra-large fathead minnow. The water is very cold yet, so fish slow. When you think you are fishing slowly enough, slow down some more. The backwaters like Hickory Nut Conservation Area are open and should have crappie, bluegills and pike in there. Use an ice jig with a spike or wax worm for the panfish and a large golden roach minnow for the pike.” Call 815-455-2040 for an updated report.

8 BLUES 3, BLACKHAWKS 2 (SO)

Hawks put up fight to salvage a point

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com ST. LOUIS – Patrick Kane was slamming his stick in frustration, and Artemi Panarin was looking bewildered as St. Louis goaltender Jake Allen made spectacular save after spectacular save. But the Blackhawks – less than two minutes away from losing in regulation after leading through two periods for the first time since the 201314 season – didn’t stop trying.

And with only 77 seconds left, Panarin finally broke through, his one-timer in the slot off a Jonathan Toews feed sending the game to overtime and salvaging a crucial point in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Blues. Kevin Shattenkirk scored in the sixth round of the shootout, and Teuvo Teravainen hit the post to give the Blues the win.

It was fast, it was physical and it was a whole lot of fun. And it was a possible first-round playoff preview, if the Stars can stave off the Hawks, who moved back into a tie with them for first place with the point. The Blues now are one point back. The Hawks visit Dallas on Friday night.

In a showdown of the league’s top-ranked power play (Hawks) and the league’s top-ranked penalty kill (Blues), both units got plenty of time early on. The Blues took three penalties in the first, including a five-minute charging major on Ryan Reaves (who also got a game misconduct) for a huge hit on Christian Ehrhoff. The Blues held firm on the first two kills, but couldn’t escape the major, as Andrew Ladd deflected a Teuvo Teravainen shot past Allen for a 1-0 lead at 1:14 of the second period.

The Blues – who were shut out by Corey Crawford the last time these teams met – finally broke through at 8:46 of the third, as David Backes tipped in a Kevin Shattenkirk shot from the blue line just 10 seconds after the Hawks took a too-many-men penalty. Less than four minutes later, Ehrhoff was whistled for holding – the Hawks’ third penalty in less than seven minutes – and Troy Brouwer banged home the go-ahead goal on the ensuing power play.

Both goalies were terrific, with Crawford makings 15 of his 28 saves in the second period alone, and Allen (33 saves) making a spectacular diving paddle save on Kane late in the first, a sprawling stop on Panarin in the third and another on Kane in the third.

That the Blues are even in the

The Hawks lost, 3-2, in a shootout. playoff picture, let alone fighting for the Central Division title, is quite an achievement. The Blues have lost more than 240 man-games to injury – key players, too.

“Everybody talks about ‘next man up’ and all that stuff, but we played with no memory, and we learned to survive early,” Blues coach Ken Hitchcock said. “You just become numb after a while.”

The Hawks have been on the opposite end of the spectrum this season, losing 90 man-games to injury, the second-fewest in the league. Marcus Kruger’s wrist injury has been the only long-term injury the Hawks have dealt with, as Duncan Keith and Marian Hossa missed only weeks, not months, with their injuries. So the Hawks couldn’t complain much when Hossa decided after Wednesday’s morning skate that he needed another couple of days before he was ready to return from the leg injury that has kept him out since Feb. 13.

Even Wednesday’s game, the Hawks were fortunate. Ehrhoff, who has a history of concussions, left the game after the Reaves hit, but returned for the second period. And Toews got a scare in the second period when Jaden Schwartz ran him into the boards just as the door to the Blues bench opened.

Toews briefly left the game, but returned shortly after. Tomas Fleischmann appeared to hurt his wrist in the third, but didn’t miss any time.

BLACKHAWKS NOTES

NHL deems allegations against Kane ‘unfounded’

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com

a “so-called” case that was “rife with reasonable doubt.”

ST. LOUIS – The NHL on Wednesday closed its independent investigation into Blackhawks star Patrick Kane, deeming the allegations of sexual assault made against him by a woman in August “unfounded.”

The league said that Kane had an in-person meeting with commissioner Gary Bettman on Monday.

“Based on its review, including the determination made by the Erie County District Attorney not to pursue charges, the NHL has concluded that the allegations made against Kane were unfounded,” the league said in a statement. “The league considers the matter closed and will have no further comment.”

Kane had been the subject of a three-month investigation after a woman made the allegations to police Aug. 2 in Hamburg, New York. Erie County District Attorney Frank Sedita announced Nov. 5 that he was not filing charges against Kane, calling it

mance at Minnesota last month, the Hawks might have outdoor-game fatigue. And based on the lousy TV ratings for that game, NHL fans might have Hawks fatigue.

But the NHL is going to the well again, putting the Hawks in their fifth outdoor game – and fourth in as many years – at next year’s Winter Classic.

The Hawks will play the Blues on Jan. 2 at Busch Stadium, a long-expected showdown that the NHL made official Wednesday. It’ll be the Hawks’ third Winter Classic (they also have played in two Stadium Series games).

Nineteen teams have yet to play in a single Winter Classic, and eight teams never even have played in an outdoor game.

Although players love the outdoor games, they haven’t been kind to the Hawks, who are 1-3 outdoors, with their lone win coming against Pittsburgh at a snowy Soldier Field in 2014.

“MARY POPPINS”

Some technical flaws, but ‘Poppins’ a delight REVIEWS Richard Pahl

The TownSquare Players production of “Mary Poppins” opened at the Woodstock Opera House on Friday night to an enthusiastic audience.

Although theatergoers are most familiar with the iconic 1964 Disney movie featuring Academy Award-winning songs by the Sherman brothers, this 2004 stage musical is not a replica of the film. It is based on the movie as well as eight novels

by P. L. Travers and features a new book

by Julian Fellows and new songs and lyrics by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe.

Director Roger Zawacki, with music director Rosemarie Aiello and choreographer Katie Yore, have recruited a hardworking ensemble. Katherine Damisch as Mary Poppins possesses a strong, pleasing voice, although this reviewer wishes she was portrayed in this version with more of the charm and good humor of the film and less of the strictness of the books.

Similarly, Daren Walsh gives a strong performance as Bert, but I wish he employed more warmth and humor.

The story revolves around the Banks

family in 1910 London. John Barnett is George, a precise and orderly banker; Jordan Rakittke is Winifred, frazzled wife and mother; and Raina Thieg and Blake Buczkeiwicz are Jane and Michael, their ill-behaved children. (Mya Berg and Matthew Savas share the roles at alternate performances.) The children’s duet, “The Perfect Nanny,” was one of the early highlights of the evening. The Banks household also includes Katie Yore and Kory Williams, who give strongly sung, comic performances as the household staff.

Other standouts include Jessica Dawson as a statue-come-to-life, Noah Richardson as Northbrook, Suzanne Stalker as the Birdwoman, Ilene Kaye as the terrifying Miss Andrew and Dan Keilman and Theresa Voge Kaman in multiple roles. The audience enjoyed David Gasior’s over-thetop portrayal of the Chairman of the Bank.

A second-act memorable musical moment was “Brimstone and Treacle,” a diva smackdown between old school Nanny Miss Andrews and Practically Perfect Mary Poppins.

Although it is impossible to recreate the fantastic world of the original movie on stage or duplicate the sets from the Broadway musical in this smaller Opera House, TSP has filled the stage with colorful set pieces rigged for special effects, the massive Banks home, a storybook

Although I would have preferred a more tailored silhouette for Mary Poppins and a better fitting wig for Mrs. Banks, costumer Vicki McKay and her team have filled the stage with hundreds of colorful period costumes.

Even though the principal players wear body mics, some cast members would have benefited from better diction and stronger projection. Sound balance is often a problem in this jewel of a theater, which unfortunately lacks an orchestra pit. Nevertheless, it is a delight to see and hear a dozen musicians.

• Richard Pahl has been a working actor and director for 35 years. Most recently, he appeared in “Backwards Broadway,” performed “The London Mosquitoes” at Side Street Studio in Elgin and directed “Ordinary Days” at Steel Beam Theatre in St. Charles

REVIEWS Jeff Cook Jay Geller has been directing theatrical productions at McHenry County College for 16 years and has never shied away from taking on a new challenge. His latest venture, “Anything Goes,” is a full-scale musical, a community theater staple that has been around in one way or another since the mid-1930s.

Featuring music and lyrics from the great Cole Porter, “Anything Goes” introduced audiences to several songs that have gone on to become part of the Great American Songbook, including “You’re the Top,” “I Get a Kick Out of You” and “Anything Goes.”

The main plot revolves around young Billy Crocker (Robert Morvay), who stows away on the luxury liner “America” in a quest to follow Hope Harcourt (Larisa Bell), the woman he loves. The only problem?

Hope is engaged to be married to a hapless U.S.-crazy Englishman (Sean Plotts). Aided in a quest to win her back by a nightclub singer (Deanna Golema) and a gangster and his moll (Gary Mackowiak and Lindsey Keehn), Crocker must navigate the stormy seas of love to stop the wedding and live happily ever after.

The show is a classic of early musical comedy theater, with several subplots including mistaken identities, loves gained (and lost again) and the surefire assurance that everything tidily will be resolved in time for the finale.

Producing a full Broadway-sized musical in the intimate space of MCC’s Black Box Theatre is both ambitious and challenging, which was part of the draw for Gellar. In that regard, he succeeds brilliantly. The set is gorgeous, replicating a liner with every rivet intact, and ingeniously designed (by Thomas Kessling, who manages the production department for Columbia College’s Cinema Art & Science) to allow several different sets to occupy the same space.

Fitting nearly 30 actors into that space is another matter entirely, but the staging (including the accomplished footwork choreographed by Maggie McCord) of “Anything Goes”

ON STAGE

“ANYTHING GOES” WHEN: Through March 19 WHERE: The Black Box Theatre, Building E, McHenry County College, 8900 Route 14, Crystal Lake COST & INFO: A classic musical featuring an unforgettable Cole Porter score. Set aboard the S.S. American, the singing-dancing ocean liner overflows with wealth, sailors, a stowaway, gangsters, an evangelist, Wall Street brokers and the brassy-but-lovable Reno Sweeney. Schedule: 7 p.m. March 10-12, 17-18; 2 p.m. March 13. Tickets are $10 for students, seniors, MCC employees and alumni and $15 for general public.

For reservations, call 815-455-8746 or email jgeller@mchenry.edu. is done with an imaginative efficiency that allows the actors to tell the story and deliver the action in a way that is never confusing or distracting.

Golema, as chanteuse Reno Sweeny, easily steals the show with both her stage presence and her voice.

Golema has the kind of talent that elevates any production, and she uses it to its fullest capacity here.

Mackowiak, as gangster Moon Face Mooney, and Keehn, as his partner-in-crime, Erma, have loads of fun chewing the scenery and get many of the best lines, which they deliver with excellent timing. Plotts plays the hapless Lord Evelyn Oakleigh with an endearing earnestness, and Janaan Rose (as Oakleigh’s mother) and Mark Kuhlman (as her old flame and Crocker’s boss) bring warmth and humor to their roles.

One of the things I like best about the Black Box Theatre at MCC is the stage’s intimacy; for the most part, actors literally are within feet of the audience. With other productions, comedies and dramas MCC has produced in the past, this works to great advantage. With a musical like “Anything Goes,” however, that can lead to problems.

The orchestra, out of necessity given the dimensions of the theater and the stage’s proximity to the audience, are forced behind the set. And while ably conducted and performed (by Michael Hillstrom and his stalwart crew), the sound sometimes was lost behind the boisterous musical

numbers and energetic dancing. The other disadvantage of the space is uneven performances and mistakes cannot be hidden.

Fortunately, Gellar’s direction, and the cast’s enthusiasm and obvious affection for the classic material, help ensure the audience enjoys

their time at sea.

Woodstock’s Harold Ramis tribute to feature comedy classics

“Stripes” wasn’t an instant hit when it first appeared in theaters in 1981, but Woodstock Theatre Manager Mike Wozny was a fan from the get-go.

The comedy about two friends joining the U.S. Army, starring Harold Ramis, Bill Murray and John Candy, placed only fifth overall its opening weekend, but Harold Ramis went on to become a cult phenomenon and the fifth most popular film that year. “ ‘Stripes’ is one of my favorite movies of all time,” Wozny said. “It’s one of those I can go back and watch when they show up [on television] at 3 in the morning.”

The movie, along with the Ramis-written “National Lampoon’s Animal House,” released in 1978, and 1984’s “Ghostbusters” – once again starring Ramis and Murray, along with Dan Akroyd, and cowritten by Ramis – will be shown as part of “A Tribute to Harold Ramis” at Classic Cinemas Woodstock Theatre.

The three-day film fest will begin March 13 with a 1 p.m. showing of “Ghostbusters.” At 7 p.m. March 14, “Stripes” will be shown, followed at 7 p.m. March 15 with “National Lampoon’s Animal House.” Tickets cost $6 a person and can be bought at www.classiccinemas.com.

The films have been digitally remastered and will be shown in the Harold

Ramis Auditorium, the theater’s largest and historic original auditorium renovated and named in honor of the filmmaker, who died in 2014.

“Everything [Ramis] did seemed to just have a passion behind it,” said Wozny, who worked in theater marketing for 10 years for Disney, reading numerous movie scripts.

It’s one thing to catch the films on television or watch them on DVD, but it’s another to see them alongside a laughing audience on the big screen, Wozny said.

With a female-driven version of “Ghostbusters,” starring Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones, set to be released in July, the showing of the original “Ghostbusters” was a natural choice, Wozny said.

And like “Stripes” and “Ghostbusters,” Ramis’ “National Lampoon’s Animal House,” depicting a 1962 college scene, went on to become a classic, launching numerous stars, including John Belushi.

“It really established his transition from ‘Saturday Night Live’ to film,” Wozny said. “It was the ‘Saturday Night Live’ audience that really picked it up and ran with the movie.”

Ramis’ ties to Woodstock date to 1992, when he filmed “Groundhog Day” on the Woodstock Square.

The Chicago native later wrote a letter thanking the community for supporting the movie, which, like his others, went on to become a favorite. Along with the town’s annual Groundhog Days festival in January and early February, the film trib-

ute is a way to honor Woodstock’s relationship with Ramis.

It is the hope of Jim Belushi in organizers “National Lampoon’s it becomes Animal House” annual.

“Harold Ramis is such an icon, especially in this town,” Wozny said.

Along with the film showings, Rick Bellairs, who appeared as an extra in “Groundhog Day” and helps organize the Groundhog Days festival, will serve as master of ceremonies and introduce the fest just before the March 13 “Ghostbusters” showing.

He’ll present a memento on loan to the theater – a set of Ramis’ handprints in concrete. The theater already has Ramis’ letter to Woodstock framed and hanging near the Harold Ramis Auditorium.

“A lot of people will look at these [movies] today and go, ‘I never heard of them.’ If they’re that young, they should come see them,” Bellairs said. “They are comedy classics. It doesn’t get much better than ‘Animal House’ or ‘Stripes’ or ‘Ghostbusters.’

“A lot of people have only seen these on TV or DVD. The chance to see these classics again on the big screen should not be missed.”

‘Brothers Grimsby’ is truly shameless

By LINDSEY BAHR The Associated Press

Be suspect of movies that are infamous before they even hit theaters.

The “they did WHAT” anticipatory glee is generally bound to be a letdown – especially when the big joke is someone getting a disease. In the off-chance you’ve managed to stay blissfully unaware of the gag, I won’t go into any more specifics. Needless to say, it does indeed happen, it is brazen, and it will leave you dumbfounded.

Whether or not the joke will also elicit a laugh is the big question, though. It’s one that applies to much of the humor in the movie, too, which starts out with a Bill Cosby jab and steamrolls on from there.

The plot finds a sweet-hearted dimwitted working class Northern Londoner (Sacha Baron Cohen’s Nobby) reunited with his younger brother Sebastian (Mark Strong) after 28 years apart. Sebastian is now a top spy and assassin, with a hardcore shaved head to match his ruthless attitude.

Nobby’s ill-timed reunion with his long-lost kin puts Sebastian’s job, and life, in jeopardy – tethering the two for the remainder of the movie as they try to clear Sebastian’s name and save the world.

Strong plays it straight, but isn’t nearly as memorable as Jason Statham’s turn in “Spy.” Baron Cohen, who also cowrote the movie, is sort of lovable as Nobby with his daffy,

“THE BROTHERS GRIMSBY” STARRING: Sacha Baron Cohen,

Mark Strong, Rebel Wilson PLOT: A new assignment forces a top spy to team up with his football hooligan brother.

RATED: R for strong crude sexual content, graphic nudity, violence, language and some drug use RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 23 minutes crooked-toothed smile, Nobby is such an earnest dolt that even the Bill Cosby joke is almost OK. The presumed hilarity of his preference for curvier girls (Rebel Wilson and Gabourey Sidibe among them) is similarly made more tolerable by his unending sincerity.

In fact, flashbacks to Nobby and Sebastian’s hooligan youth are fairly touching. But then there’s a joke about pedophiles at Legoland, or an ancient Saturday Night Live Celebrity Jeopardy riff on the word “therapist,” and your jaw is once again on the floor.

Boy, does “The Brothers Grimsby” push boundaries, over and over and over again.

Whether that’s a good thing really only can be determined by the individual viewer, and in some corners of the world, “The Brothers Grimsby” actually might be well-positioned to become a cult classic.

In the spy spoof realm, I’d rather just re-watch last year’s almost equally raunchy, but infinitely cleverer “Spy.”

Flipping homes for a living requires hard work, preparation

You’ve seen the shows on television with people buying homes and reselling them – also known as “flipping.”

But is it really profitable? Can you really make a living by doing that?

Of course, the answer is, “It depends.” Certainly there are not enough potential properties in the McHenry County area for everyone to make a living off it, but there are a few properties that might make good candidates. Let’s talk more about that.

online generally won’t apply. So, you should be prepared to add between 0.5 and 1 percent to the rate and pay a percentage point or more as a fee.

Usual closing costs will apply – title, attorney, appraisal, etc. Lenders also likely will require 20 or 25 percent as a down payment.

Before looking at homes on the Internet, you need to first verify your financial viability to take on the task. Assuming that few people have thousands of dollars sitting around to invest, you probably will need a lender. And these loans aren’t your garden-variety ones.

Loans on non-owner-occupied properties are considered commercial loans, and mortgage rates published

The easiest part probably is locating the properties. With so many real estate resources available, identifying potential properties is significantly easier than it was just a couple of years ago.

And let’s not forget your credit score.

If you have had difficulty paying your regular bills, a lender likely won’t give you money for a pet project.

You also should call your real estate agent before you start identifying potential projects. They may have some properties in mind for you or, at least,

provide tips on how to start. Not all agents, though, specialize in working with investors. Investors take a lot of time with little guarantee an agent will get paid.

Agents need to have some expectation that you will buy a property in the near future for them to dedicate their time to your needs. Since these properties are often priced lower than others, their paycheck also will be reduced. And they already have to split it with their brokerage firm.

Many agents still will be happy to work with you, but you need to show commitment. This might be your hobby, but it’s not their hobby.

No matter what type of rehab project you’re doing on a home, you need to be hands on and constantly present.

be for you. The more work you can do yourself, the less you are paying others.

If your idea of a weekend project is swapping out a light fixture, then flipping homes for a living might not

Keep in mind, every project has unknowns. Even a professional home inspector, which I highly recommend,

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com • Thursday, March 10, 2016 • won’t detect everything you might find once you start opening walls and moving appliances. The critters that dug under the foundation won’t tell you they also chewed wires in the attic.

Expect at least a 10 to 20 percent over-

run on any project and add 50 percent to the time you think you will complete the project. You will find something else that requires extra dollars.

Most importantly, be sure to pull the proper permits. The last thing you want is to tear out freshly installed, painted drywall because the city

needs to inspect the electric work you tried doing without a permit.

I’ll be sharing more on this topic next month, so stay tuned. Heartland also hosts a free seminar from 6 to 7 p.m. March 3 to discuss the issue and answer your questions. It is not a sale’s pitch. Check heartlandro.com

JOBS ANNOUNCEMENTS STUFF VEHICLES REAL ESTATE SERVICES LEGALS Northwest Herald Classified and online at: NWHerald.com

Iris Apfel said, “You learn as you grow up, if you’re intelligent -- or even three-quarter witted -- that there’s no free lunch. You pay for things in various ways.”

This applies with a Michaels CueBid or an Unusual No-Trump. First, if you do not buy the contract, you have given their declarer as good a road map of the deal as a GPS gizmo. Second, occasionally the killing defense will be more obvious -- as in this deal.

Look at the West and North hands. West leads the heart ace against four spades. After East signals with the eight, how should West plan the defense?

North’s two-heart cue-bid showed at least 5-5 in spades and either minor. South’s jump to game was a tad aggressive.

Since the heart eight must be a singleton or the higher card from a doubleton, West cashes his heart queen, to which everyone follows.

What next?

West must hope that his side can score two trump tricks. It is time for him to continue with a low heart. Then he has to hope that East realizes it cannot cost to ruff with the spade queen. You see the effect: When South overruffs with his spade ace, it promotes two trump tricks for West.

East should see what is required, because if South had a third heart, West would have cashed his heart king at trick three. (This was the key point behind leading the queen, not the king, at trick two.)

Lastly, note that if North had been the declarer, this defense would have been much harder to find.
