Rauner takes GOP nomination The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Venture capitalist Bruce Rauner won the GOP primary Tuesday in his bid for Illinois governor, as voters embraced a first campaign by the multimillionaire who flooded the airwaves with vows to run the Democratic stronghold like a business and curb the influence of government unions.

With Republicans eyeing what they view as their best shot in years to win the top job in President Barack

Obama’s home state, Rauner defeated three longtime state lawmakers – including the current state treasurer. He advances to a November matchup with Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn, who easily won his nomination for a secBruce ond full term. “ T h e v o t e r s a r e Rauner going to face a stark choice in November, a major decision about the future of our state,” Raun-

er said in his victory speech. “It’s a choice between failure of the past and a new day.”

Between Quinn and predecessor Rod Blagojevich, now imprisoned for corruption, Democrats have held the governorship since 2003.

But Rauner could present a serious threat, partly due to a massive campaign bank account that already includes more than $6 million of his own money.

For voters across Illinois, the governor’s race represented a potentially

transformative battle over union influence, with some voters saying they wanted to break an alliance between organized labor and Democrats, who have long controlled most statewide offices and the Legislature.

Organized labor battled back out of concern that Rauner could seek to weaken unions in the same way GOP governors have in other states across the Midwest.

Rauner says he would model his

It was a close race for the Republican nomination for McHenry County Sheriff, with Bill Prim coming out on top, though his opponent didn’t concede late Tuesday.

Less than 100 votes separated Prim from Undersheriff Andrew Zinke after early and absentee votes were counted. Prim garnered 14,516 votes to Zinke’s 14,418.

But Zinke, who has been undersheriff since 2010, said he wasn’t giving up.

“It’s still too close to concede,” Zinke said just before midnight Tuesday. “We have to wait for ev-

ery vote to be counted.”

County Clerk Katherine Schultz said there still were 47 outstanding absentee ballots to be counted, not enough to change the outcome. Schultz didn’t have a count on the number of provisional ballots, but said there typically are not very many.

About 11:15 p.m. Tuesday, Prim declared victory in front of his supAndrew porters gathered at Pinecrest Golf Zinke Club in Huntley.

He declined to be interviewed by the Northwest Herald, and instead released a statement through his spokesman:

“I’m extremely pleased at today’s results. I’m grateful to all the men and women who have exerted themselves above and beyond the call of duty these past 18 months. The victory is theirs. I know we have more hills to climb. I’m very glad to be at the top of this one.”

His election night victory will usher in a new era at the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office. He pulled it off without much support from the party establishment.

Zinke had endorsements from nearly every local Republican elected official including mayors and state representatives. He also had support

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

What’s old can be new with creativity, vision Can history be preserved while encouraging new uses for old spaces?

That’s the question before the city of Woodstock as it tries to determine the next chapter for the Old Courthouse on the Square.

The building, which was opened in 1858, was used by the county until the 1970s, when county government was moved to Route 47 and Ware Road.

The structure then was sold to private investors.

It was designed by famed architect John Mills Van Osdel, who also is responsible for Rush Medical Center and The Palmer House in Chicago.

In January, the city, which now owns the property, put out a request for proposals, asking potential buyers to include budget and restoration plans for the site.

The idea is to maintain as much of the character of the building as is possible.

I started thinking about the Old Courthouse again after I toured the

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Joan Oliver Starline Factory in Harvard for a recent article.

If you haven’t had a chance to see the things owner Orrin Kinney has been able to do with that old building, you really should go out there.

The Starline, which was built in the 1880s by Henry L. Ferris and business partners Charles E. Hunt and Nathan B. Helm, began as a manufacturing facility for farm equipment and the like.

Kinney bought the 278,000-squarefoot building at auction in the 1990s.

The roof had caved in, and it was in desperate need of repairs.

Little by little, though, the place has been transformed.

Of course, a little serendipity along the way hasn’t hurt, either.

The space now hosts wedding and

events, something that wasn’t in the original plans.

That changed, however, when the great-great-granddaughter of the Starline’s founder, Henry Ferris, approached Kinney about having her wedding at the building in 2010.

Kinney and his crew went to work to make that happen, and the work went down to the wire, Kinney told me.

“That night, when I walked in and took a look at the wedding, I was blown away,” Kinney said.

And no doubt even more brides since then have said the same thing about the Starline and the Ferris Room, which can accommodate 500 guests.

The Starline also has become an arts destination, hosting Fourth Friday events, as well as the annual Art of the Land fundraiser for The Land Conservancy of McHenry County. It also is home to artist studios and small offices.

A lot of vision and a little luck has turned Harvard history into something vibrant for the future.

Crystal Lake knows all about that, too. Remember the drive in 2002 that led to the purchase of the Dole Mansion?

Today, the Lakeside Legacy Arts Park also is a destination for the arts, with events such as First Fridays and concerts in The Listening Room. The park is home to artist studios, too.

Is that the course the Old Courthouse will take? That’s a question for the new owners to answer. For now, the possibilities are endless.

Creativity and a desire to preserve the past has worked before in McHenry County.

I certainly hope it can again.

1st production model Stratocaster for sale: $250K The ASSOCIATED PRESS NASHVILLE, Tenn. – George Gruhn’s guitar shop in Nashville is a kind of mecca for fine, vintage musical instruments, but even Gruhn is blown away by the latest addition to his inventory. He says it’s the very first production model Fender Stratocaster ever made.

You can own it for a cool quarter million dollars.

“It’s not special as memorabilia because it was owned by anybody special. But it is special because this is effectively like having the right

Smith purchased the guitar from the original owner.

Gruhn said the record-keeping on the guitar is superb because Smith is considered one of the foremost experts on Stratocasters. Smith is selling it on consignment through Gruhn’s Guitars.

The Fender Stratocaster, first produced in 1954, has been described as a guitar that changed the world.

tours seemed strange and perplexing to some. But the kids knew what to do with it.

Buddy Holly played one. So did Jimi Hendrix, when he transformed the psychedelic experience into sound a decade later. Bob Dylan chose a Stratocaster for his revolutionary electric set, when he fired a defiant shot at tradition during the 1965 Newport Folk Festival.

And 60 years after it was created, the much copied design of the Stratocaster has hardly changed.

According to Gruhn, Stratocasters are the single most popular, best-selling electric guitars on the planet.

COUNTY BOARD CHAIRMAN REFERENDUM

Voters to directly elect County Board chair

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com Voters decided Tuesday that the power to elect the McHenry County Board chairman should rest with the public from now on.

By almost a 60 percent margin, voters approved a binding referendum to change the way the board chairman is elected. Starting in 2016, the voters will elect the chairman rather than the 24 board members themselves.

Supporters for the change cast 18,722 votes, compared to 14,134 votes opposed, according to unofficial to-

tals. Tuesday’s referendum is the culmination of a years-long political battle over the power and incumbency of the office.

The County Board after the 2016 election will be made up of 25 members – the current 24-member board and the chairman. The chairman will not be a voting member, unlike now, and will only cast a vote to break a tie.

The job comes with no extra powers except for the authority to call special meetings and the option to propose a redistricting of board districts following each decennial U.S. Census.

Under the current system, the

County Board elects the chairman every two years after each November election, with at least 13 votes needed to win.

Opponents said a popular election will require campaign funding, and open the office up to special interests. Supporters have pointed out the power of incumbency is strong under the current structure because the chairman can trade appointments to chairmen of standing committees in exchange for votes. Supporters have been pushing for a referendum since 2010, and brought it up in 2011 during post-census redistricting, when state

law allows county boards to go to direct election without a referendum.

State Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, in 2012 filed a bill that would have forced popular election in McHenry and Lake counties, and spearheaded an unsuccessful referendum to change to a county executive form of government. The County Board voted last August, 19-4, to put the question to voters this March.

The issue of the chairman’s power and incumbency has come to a head in recent years over the power and incumbency of former Chairman Ken Koehler, who was elected to four

terms by the County Board before losing his 2012 bid for a fifth.

Tuesday’s vote leaves Lake County as the sole collar county where the board selects the chairman. Voters in Kane and DuPage counties directly elect their board chairmen.

Will County voters elect an executive, and Cook County voters elect a board president – both of those offices act as an executive branch and wield significantly more power. Several Illinois counties with larger populations have direct election, including Winnebago, LaSalle, Madison and St. Clair counties.

COUNTY CLERK | REPUBLICAN

McClellan beats Provenzano in GOP race for county clerk

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com Mary McClellan inched closer to becoming the next McHenry County clerk, easily securing the Republican nomination over fellow County Board member Nick Provenzano on Tuesday.

McClellan captured the countywide nomination with 56.5 percent of the vote, according to unofficial results from the McHenry County Clerk’s Office. She maintained that margin for most of the night.

McClellan now will run unopposed in the November general election unless the county’s Democratic Party selects a candidate and gets the needed signatures.

She would replace retiring Clerk Katherine Schultz, who has led the office for the past 24 years.

“I’m humbled and I’m excited,” McClellan said. “I hope to fill Kathie’s shoes with the same leadership, integrity and diligence she has shown all of us here in McHenry County.”

McClellan, a Holiday Hills resident who was first elected to the County Board in 2012, secured the victory by collecting 15,721 votes. Nearly 27,820 ballots were cast in the race.

Provenzano conceded and told the

Northwest Herald he was proud his campaign kept a positive message and criticized McClellan for striking a negative tone in campaign mailers and automated calls to voters.

“We are very proud of the positive campaign that we ran,” Provenzano said. “We delivered a very strong, positive message to voters. We chose not to go negative and attack, and she did.”

He would not comment on whether he would support McClellan as the Republican nominee.

McClellan defended herself, saying her campaign message was based Nick on Provenzano’s record Provenzano as an elected official.

Both candidates had been representing District 3 on the County Board. McClellan touted her integrity as a top qualification to lead the clerk’s office while on campaigning.

McClellan, an attorney from the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office, said her experiences as a single mother through law school and elected office would serve county residents well.

She highlighted ways to modernize the clerk’s office, steamline certain processes and build on the office’s

reputation that Schultz helped develop throughout the years.

Provenzano, a veteran incumbent from McHenry who started serving on the County Board in 2002, also wanted to modernize the clerk’s office with improved election technology and ballot access.

He pledged to run a tight office budget after advocating for years to keep the county’s tax levy flat while on the County Board. Provenzano also brought his political pedigree to the campaign.

He now serves as a district representative to Republican U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, after helping former Republican U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh secure his only term in office in 2010.

Provenzano did not give up his County Board seat to run for clerk. He has two more years on his term, which expires in 2016.

Aside from manning elections, the county clerk’s office manages vital records like birth, death and marriage certificates.

The office also helps determine how much property tax revenue the county’s various taxing bodies can receive under the law by calculating the total assessed valuation of McHenry County.

Republican voters on Tuesday sent one McHenry County Board incumbent home.

Voters in rural District 6 chose newcomer Larry Smith over incumbent Ersel Schuster, but the six other incumbents running in contested primaries won by comfortable margins.

Republican voters in four of the County Board’s six districts had to narrow their field of candidates to two who will go on to the November election. The victors in at least three of those districts will face Democratic challengers, two of them incumbents.

Half of the County Board is up for election this year, or two seats in each of the board’s districts.

All vote totals are unofficial.

• District 1: Incumbent Robert Nowak and challenger Andrew Gasser will go on to the November election.

Nowak, now living in Lake in the Hills, received 2,528 votes. Gasser, of Fox River Grove, received 2,384. Barrington Hills attorney David Stieper lost with 1,799 votes.

Nowak, former Cary building and planning director, and Gasser, a retired Air Force officer and founder of a tea party space policy think tank, will run in November against Democratic incumbent Nick Chirikos, of Algonquin.

“I am really humbled by all the support that I got from the voters of my district, and I really look forward to a spirited campaign in November, and eventually being their County Board member,” Gasser said.

• District 3: Voters in District 3 sided with incumbent Joe Gottemoller and newcomer Don Kopsell over two other challengers.

Gottemoller, a Crystal Lake land-use attorney elected in 2012, won the most votes with 2,952. Kopsell, former Nunda Township highway commissioner, received 2,111 votes, edging out District 47 board member and certified public accountant Nancy Gonsiorek by only 28 votes. Crystal Lake attorney Sarah Jansen came in last with 1,784 votes.

Incumbent board member

Mary McClellan did not run for re-election in order to run for county clerk – she won her race, defeating fellow County Board member Nick Provenzano.

Gottemoller and Kopsell will run in November against Democratic challenger Kathleen Bergan Schmidt, who served one term on the County Board before losing her 2012 re-election bid.

• District 5: Michael Rein will get a rematch against Democratic incumbent Paula Yensen.

Rein, a Woodstock chiropractor, won with 2,279 votes, as did incumbent John Jung Jr., also of Woodstock, with 2,445 votes. Fired McHenry County sheriff’s deputy Zane Seipler, who has gained notoriety with his lawsuits against his former employer, was a distant third with 1,056 votes.

Rein, in the 2012 primary, edged out the County Board’s longest-serving member by only 26 votes, but lost to Yensen in November. Yensen, of Lake in the Hills, was the first Democrat to be re-elected to a second County Board term.

• District 6: Rural Woodstock incumbent Michele Aavang and challenger Larry Smith won their primaries.

Aavang, president of the McHenry County Farm Bureau, won 3,813 votes, and Smith, a rural Harvard businessman, won 3,208 votes.

He beat Schuster, owner of a printing business, by 62 votes.

District 6 covers all or parts of 11 townships making up the county’s rural western half, including Harvard, Marengo, Hebron and Union.

Republican candidates in two County Board districts ran unopposed.

Newcomer Charles Wheeler, of McHenry, and incumbent John Hammerand, of Wonder Lake, won in District 4, which covers northeast McHenry County, including Richmond, Spring Grove, Johnsburg and McCullom Lake, and parts of McHenry, Wonder Lake and Bull Valley.

Incumbent Sandra Fay Salgado, R-McHenry, is not seeking re-election.

Incumbents James Heisler and Donna Kurtz, both from Crystal Lake, won in District 2.

COUNTY TREASURER | REPUBLICAN

Miller secures GOP nomination for county treasurer

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com

Glenda Miller

Jeff Thorsen

The second-in-command at the McHenry County Treasurer’s Office for the past 17 years will soon become the office’s top executive.

Glenda Miller, the chief deputy treasurer, defeated Crystal Lake City Council member Jeff Thorsen and secured the Republican nomination for treasurer Tuesday.

She maintained a wide margin throughout the night, winning with 55.2 percent of the vote, according to unofficial results from the McHenry County Clerk’s Of-

fice.

“Being the chief deputy for the last 17 years and working with the taxpayers of McHenry County, I want to continue to do that,” Miller said. “I know the job, and I feel like I’m most qualified.”

Miller will succeed her boss for the past 17 years, Bill LeFew, unless the county’s Democratic Party selects a candidate and collects the needed signatures before November.

Miller captured 14,665 votes of the 26,555 total ballots cast in the countywide race.

Thorsen praised Miller for running a classy campaign. He

called her the “Republican of choice” for treasurer, adding he fully supports Miller as the nominee.

“I’m very proud of the campaign. We always knew it was an uphill battle,” Thorsen said.

“At the end of the day, you look at yourself in the mirror and ask if you ran a respectable campaign and by golly, I know we did.”

Both candidates highlighted their banking and public office experience during the campaign.

Miller left behind 21 years in the banking business to work as chief deputy treasurer in the late 1990s.

The Harvard resident current-

ly serves as a Chemung Township trustee after she previously represented the Harvard City Council.

Thorsen sought countywide office as he served locally on the Crystal Lake City Council – a position he has held since 1999.

With 25 years of banking experience, he works as vice president of First Merit Bank in Union.

While on the campaign trail, Miller touted her work as LeFew’s chief deputy. The position, she said, made her uniquely qualified to lead the treasurer’s staff.

She also wanted to enhance the office’s public outreach with

an improved website and social media presence to help taxpayers find information easier.

Thorsen wanted to bring fresh ideas to the office with an emphasis toward protecting taxpayer dollars.

Thorsen’s goals included more transparent tax bills that detail how much a taxing body receives from individual taxpayers and the financial state of a particular taxing body.

The treasurer office’s main duties are to collect property taxes for all units of government and maintain the county government’s bank account.

BRIEFS Anderson takes 14th Congressional Dennis Anderson on Tuesday defeated newcomer John Hosta in the Democratic 14th Congressional District primary.

Anderson led with about 65 percent of the vote in most precincts, compared to Hosta’s 35 percent, according to unofficial election results.

The victory sets up a rematch between Anderson and incumbent Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Winfield, who defeated him for re-election in 2012.

“I think that by and large it was a matter of [my] breadth of issue recognition and understanding,” Anderson said, speaking from his election night party at Rookie’s in Huntley. “I think John had some very good points to make about trades and tariff issues, but it was a singular issue, and I think that made a difference.”

Voters gave mixed answers to a series of referendum questions laid out Tuesday.

While Huntley Park District voters overwhelming voted against issuing $18.75 million in bonds to construct a new indoor turf facility and to pay for future land expansion, Johnsburg District 12 voters narrowly approved up to $41 million in bonds to cover facility improvements.

As for the 249 voters who cast a ballot Tuesday on the Bull Valley road improvement referendum, their approval (or disapproval) didn’t matter.

Village officials announced last week that they had rethought their request to issue $5 million alternative revenue bonds to repair village roads and were going to look into other revenue streams.

Provisional and late absentee ballots are not included in the vote counts.

Johnsburg District 12: Approval of a $41 million bond question squeaked by Tuesday.

Johnsburg District 12 voters authorized the consolidated school district to issue up to $41 million in bonds to pay for facility improvements, 1,237-1,213, a margin of 24 votes.

Maintenance costs on the district’s four aging buildings have been pushing the district consistently over its budgeted expenses.

The school board has been preparing plans to renovate three of the district’s buildings and decided to stop using Bush Elementary School as one of its grade-level centers.

With the referendum approved, the district will be able to pay for the improvements using bonds, which will be paid back using property taxes.

Huntley Park District: Officials will have to find a new revenue stream if they plan to move ahead with plans to expand their facilities.

By a 3-to-1 margin, voters rejected a $20 million bond question that would have financed an indoor turf facility and future land purchases.

The debt would have been repaid using property taxes, but because the district planned on restructuring its debt, the bond portion of property owners’ tax bills would not have gone up, officials said.

Fox Lake: Some of Fox Lake’s roads will still get repaired despite the failure of Tuesday’s referendum question in a 509444 vote, its village president said.

The Fox Lake Village Board decided to ask voters whether the village should take out $6 million in bonds to supplement $2 million the village has saved

Jim Oberweis thanks his supporters Tuesday night at the Oberweis Dairy in Glen Ellyn after taking a concession call from his opponent in the race for the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate.

U.S. SENATE | REPUBLICAN

Oberweis wins; Durbin next

By KERRY LESTER and TAMMY WEBBER The Associated Press CHICAGO – Illinois Republicans chose state senator and dairy magnate Jim Oberweis to challenge powerful, threeterm Democratic U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin in November, as the party fights to remain relevant in a state in which Democrats hold almost all statewide offices and a substantial majority of congressional and legislative seats.

Oberweis, 67, of Sugar

Grove, insisted he had greater name recognition than his primary opponent, Downers Grove businessman and political newcomer Doug Truax, because of the chain of ice cream shops his family owns and his previous campaigns for U.S. Senate.

With 99 percent of precincts reporting, Oberweis had 406,368 votes to Truax’s 319,323.

Oberweis, who said he would serve no more than two terms in the Senate if elected, said he hopes to help the GOP retake control of the U.S. Sen-

ate to “change the direction of this country.”

Truax, who owns a health insurance consulting firm, had the support of former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich and U.S. Rep. Aaron Schock.

The GOP hopes to at least give Durbin a scare, but after 32 years in Washington, he has no primary opposition and a big war chest. Even so, some political observers consider Durbin vulnerable because he helped get President Barack Obama’s troubled health care program signed into law.

CHICAGO – Former House Republican Leader Tom Cross defeated DuPage County Auditor Bob Grogan to win the Republican nomination for state treasurer.

With 99 percent of precincts reporting, Cross had 382,963 votes to Grogan’s 284,290.

Cross is from Oswego.

He has been a member of the General Assembly since 1993, and spent a decade in the House leadership post. He Tom Cross highlighted his legislative experience on the campaign trail.

“I’m humbled,” Cross told the State Journal-Register.

“As I’ve listened to people around the state, they’re frustrated. I’m glad the message of using the office in an aggressive way resonated with the voters.”

Grogan is an accountant who has worked as an auditor for DuPage County since 2008.

The seat is being vacated by current treasurer Dan Rutherford, who lost a GOP primary bid for governor.

Cross will take on Democratic state Sen. Michael Frerichs of Champaign in the November general election.

Race turned out to be closer than expected Many landowners • RAUNER Continued from page A1 governorship after those of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and former Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels. Both significantly rolled back union power in what they said were necessary steps to attract business and reduce costs. Rauner defeated state Sens. Bill Brady and Kirk Dillard and state Treasurer Dan Rutherford in the primary.

“Rauner is going to be a bull in a china shop; we need a bull,” said Tom Sommer, a 57-year-old real estate broker from Hinsdale. “It’s not going to be more of the same.”

Issues such as a public pension overhaul and high taxes “are coming to the fore and the old guard is not going to handle that,” Sommer said, adding that he voted for Rauner because of his tough talk against the unions that represent public sector workers.

That sentiment persists despite Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn’s push to fix Illinois’

Bruce Rauner exits his polling place after voting Tuesday in Winnetka. finances by overhauling the heavily underwater public pension systems, which earned him the unions’ ire.

Rauner has also won supporters with his call for term limits.

Union leaders, meanwhile, sought Rauner’s defeat by encouraging members to pull Republican ballots and vote for Dillard, who picked up several union endorsements.

The typically left-leaning

unions spent more than $6 million on the GOP primary, both in anti-Rauner and pro-Dillard ads. Rauner raised more than $14 million, including $6 million of his own money – more than any candidate seeking a gubernatorial nomination in state history.

Rauner warned supporters about the unions’ efforts, saying Quinn’s “allies” were trying to hijack the election.

He said legislative term limits

could break the labor-Democratic alliance.

The race turned out to be far closer than polls suggested. With nearly all precincts reporting, Rauner’s edge over Dillard was slightly more than 2 percentage points.

Quinn’s first re-election ad of the season – focusing on Rauner’s evolving stance on raising the minimum wage – hit the airwaves Tuesday evening. Quinn has called for increasing the state’s rate from $8.25 to at least $10 an hour.

Rauner had initially called for a cut and later said he’d raise it under certain circumstances.

“I’m here to fight for an economy that works for everyone, not just the billionaires,” Quinn said Tuesday night in an apparent reference to Rauner’s wealth.

In the southern Illinois, voters had another reason to want to upend the state’s political order, saying they felt marginalized and neglected by a political balance weighted toward Democrats and the Chicago region.

Sheriff ’s race came down to early, absentee ballots • SHERIFF Continued from page A1 from many in law enforcement, including his boss, retiring Sheriff Keith Nygren.

Prim’s campaign was buoyed by support from State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi.

With Bianchi’s backing, Prim promised to repair the bad blood between the sheriff’s and state’s attorney’s offices.

Bianchi and Nygren have been well-documented adversaries, whose squabbles have often resulted in taxpayer-funded legal battles.

Before his supporters, Prim thanked Bianchi, saying “I couldn’t have done it without you.”

Prim also was supported

by County Board members

Diane Evertsen, Donna Kurtz and Michael Walkup.

Evertsen is part of a threeway slate of candidates looking to replace county Republican Party leaders at an April caucus.

The new leadership would also include Charles Wheeler and Sandra Salgado. Salgado, a former County Board member, is the daughter of State’s Attorney’s Office investigator Ron Salgado, who, like Bianchi, was indicted by the special prosecutors and whose case was likewise dismissed.

The sheriff’s race came down to early and absentee ballots that narrowed the lead Prim held as the returns rolled in. Prim maintained a lead throughout the evening by about 400 votes.

Early and absentee ballots

pushed that difference to 98.

Zinke has said he hadn’t considered a recount, but he has options.

Candidates have two options in pursuing a recount. A discovery recount, which can be requested by the candidate and is pretty common, looks at a sampling of precincts to see if there is anything that could potentially lead to a change in results. A full recount would have to be court ordered.

Tuesday marked the end of a long and acrimonious campaign season that began in September 2011, when Zinke announced he was running for the job held by his boss, and Prim followed a year later.

Nygren has been sheriff since 1997.

Prim denounced what he called the Sheriff’s Office establishment with his “Right Man, Right Time” campaign.

He has said he wants to end what he calls an “era of entitlement” and rid the office of unnecessary administrators.

He weathered an attack from the Zinke campaign that called Prim a “double dipper” looking for a second pension.

Prim has pledged not to take a sheriff’s pension, and asked voters to hold him to that promise.

“Primaries, unfortunately, seem to be a bloodbath, and once they’re over with, people [in the party] have to come back together,” Zinke said.

Prim will likely face Woodstock-based attorney Jim Harrison, who has indicated he will run as an independent.

await oil pipeline despite opposition

By GRANT SCHULTE The Associated Press LINCOLN, Neb. – If the proposed Keystone XL oil pipeline ever gains approval, Ronald Weber will watch from his farmhouse as workers lay the line beneath a halfmile of his cropland in northeast Nebraska.

The 69-year-old retired farmer wishes the pipeline had missed his property, simply to avoid the difficulty of growing corn and soybeans around the construction work. But what leaves Weber exasperated are the repeated project delays.

“It’s ridiculous that we haven’t yet built this thing,” he said. “It would have been nice if they had gone a mile over and missed me, but these kinds of things happen. It has to go through somewhere.”

Weber has plenty of company in Nebraska, a state that has been an impediment to the 1,100-mile-long line almost since it was proposed 10 years ago, but where patience with the struggle seems to be running thin now that the pipeline company has reached financial settlements with three-quarters of the landowners on the route.

Secretary of State John Kerry is expected to decide in the coming months whether to recommend White House approval of the project.

A group of environmental activists and farmers has cast the $5.4 billion pipeline as a threat to the nation’s efforts to curtail global warming, to the state’s groundwater and to residents’ property rights.

The line’s path through Nebraska also remains in legal limbo because of an ongoing court challenge.

But many property owners

are now waiting for the pipeline trucks with a sense apathy and resignation, eroding the grassroots resistance that had long bolstered the opposition. The settlement deals offered by TransCanada, the Canadian company behind the project, can run well into six figures and are providing residents here with their first share of the oil-boom money that had enriched those in the prime drilling areas in other states.

Earlier this month, pipeline supporters sought to isolate opponents even more when they gathered signatures from 34 Nebraska lawmakers – a bipartisan, twothirds majority – for a letter urging federal approval.

Three Democrats signed a letter opposing the project.

Jane Kleeb, director of the anti-pipeline group Bold Nebraska, said local opposition remains alive. She pointed to 115 of the 515 landowners along the proposed route that she said joined the effort to stop it, despite what she described as high-pressure sales tactics by TransCanada.

“For the last three months, it’s been very stressful on the landowners,” she said.

But other landowners say they’re ready for the dispute to end.

“Up here where the pipeline’s going through, the people I’ve talked to don’t have concerns with it,” said Frankie Maughan Jr., who farms near the route in northeast Nebraska. “They just want the money.”

Other states long ago signed off on the line, which would carry 830,000 barrels of oil per day from Alberta, Canada, to Texas Gulf Coast refineries, but nothing has come easy in Nebraska.

Putin signs treaty to add Crimea to map of Russia

By VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV The Associated Press MOSCOW – With a sweep of his pen, President Vladimir Putin added Crimea to the map of Russia on Tuesday, describing the move as correcting a past injustice and responding to what he called Western encroachment upon Russia’s vital interests.

While his actions were met with cheers in Crimea and Russia, Ukraine’s new government called Putin a threat to the whole world and U.S. Vice President Joe Biden warned that the U.S. and Europe will impose further sanctions against Moscow.

“The world has seen through Russia’s actions and has rejected the flawed logic,” Biden said as he met with anxious European leaders in Poland.

In an emotional 40-minute speech televised live from the Kremlin’s white-and-gold St. George hall, the Russian leader said he was merely restoring order to history by incorporating Crimea.

“In people’s hearts and minds, Crimea has always been an integral part of Russia,” he declared.

He dismissed Western criticism of Sunday’s Crimean referendum – in which residents of the strategic Black Sea peninsula overwhelmingly backed leaving Ukraine and joining Russia – as a manifestation of the West’s double standards.

Often interrupted by applause, Putin said the rights of ethnic Russians in Ukraine had been abused by the new Ukrainian government and insisted that Crimea’s vote to join Russia was in line with international law and reflected its right for self-determination.

Putin said his actions followed what he described as Western arrogance, hypocrisy

“If you push a spring too hard at some point it will spring back,” he said, addressing the West. “You always need to remember this.”

While Putin boasted that the Russian takeover of Crimea was conducted without a single shot, a Ukrainian military spokesman said one Ukrainian serviceman was killed and another injured when a military facility in Crimea was stormed Tuesday by armed men just hours after Putin’s speech.

A brand-new news agency for Crimea’s pro-Russian authorities, Crimea Inform, disputed that account, quoting an unnamed regional official who called the incident a provocation on the day of the Crimean signing. The source said unknown snipers fired at local self-defense forces, killing one man and wounding another, and also shot at the Ukrainian military, wounding one ser-

viceman.

The conflicting claims couldn’t be immediately verified.

Crimea had been part of Russia since the 18th century until Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev transferred it to Ukraine in 1954, a mere formality until the 1991 Soviet breakup. Both Russians and Crimea’s majority ethnic Russian population see annexation as correcting a historic insult. Putin argued that today’s Ukraine included “regions of Russia’s historic south” and was created on a whim by the Bolsheviks.

But despite the massing of thousands of Russian troops on Ukraine’s eastern border, Putin insisted his nation had no intention of invading other regions in Ukraine.

“We don’t want a division of Ukraine, we don’t need that,” he said.

Russia says its troops were on the border just for military training but the U.S. and Europe have called them an intimidation tactic.

What if missing Malaysia plane is never found?

The ASSOCIATED PRESS WELLINGTON, New Zealand – The plane must be somewhere. But the same can be said for Amelia Earhart’s.

Ten days after Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared with 239 people aboard, an exhaustive international search has produced no sign of the Boeing 777, raising an unsettling question: What if the airplane is never found?

Such an outcome, while considered unlikely by many experts, would certainly torment the families of those missing. It would also flummox the airline industry, which will struggle to learn lessons from the incident if it doesn’t know what happened.

While rare nowadays, history is not short of such mysteries – from the most famous of all, American aviator Earhart, to planes and ships disappearing in the so-called Bermuda Triangle.

“When something like this happens that confounds us, we’re offended by it, and we’re scared by it,” said Ric Gillespie, a former U.S. aviation accident investigator who wrote a book about Earhart’s still-unsolved 1937 disappearance over the Pacific Ocean. “We had the illusion of control and it’s just been shown to us that oh, folks, you know what? A really big airliner can just vanish. And nobody wants to hear that.”

Part of the problem, said Andrew Thomas, the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Transportation Security, is that airline systems are not as sophisticated as many people might think. A case in point, he said, is that airports and airplanes around the world use antiquated radar tracking technology, first developed in the 1950s, rather than modern GPS systems.

A GPS system might not have solved the mystery of

Flight 370, which disappeared March 8 while flying from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Beijing. But it would probably have given searchers a better read on the plane’s last known location, Thomas said.

“There are lots of reasons why they haven’t changed, but the major one is cost,” he said. “The next-generation technology would cost $70 to $80 billion in the U.S.” Experts say the plane’s disappearance will likely put pressure on airlines and governments to improve the way they monitor planes, including handoff procedures between countries. Flight 370 vanished after it signed off with Malaysian air traffic controllers, and never made contact with their Vietnamese counterparts as it should have.

And if the plane is never found, liability issues will be a huge headache for courts.

With no wreckage, it would be difficult to determine whether the airline, manufacturers or other parties should bear the brunt of responsibility.

“The international aviation legal system does not anticipate the complete disappearance of an aircraft,” said Brian Havel, a law professor and director of the International Aviation Law Institute at DePaul University in Chicago. “We just don’t have the tools for that at present.”

The families of the missing, of course, would face the most painful consequences of a failed search.

“In any kind of death, the most important matter for relatives and loved ones is knowing the context and circumstances,” said Kevin Tso, the chief executive of New Zealand agency Victim Support, which has been counseling family and friends of the two New Zealand passengers aboard the flight. “When there’s very little information, it’s very difficult.”

Several decades ago, in Woodstock, Joe Gitlin belonged to a men’s, early morning, basketball group.

Dr. Marshall Goldin, of Rush University Medical Center. He did bypass surgery on Studs Terkel, the famous Chicago writer, when Terkel was 93 years old. Terkel survived the surgery.

Medal of Honor given to 24 vets News helicopter crash kills two people on board

By JIM KUHNHENN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – They were heroes who didn’t get their due.

On Tuesday, 24 ethnic or minority U.S. soldiers who performed bravely under fire in three of the nation’s wars finally received the Medal of Honor that the government concluded should have been awarded a long time ago.

The servicemen – Hispanics, Jews and African-Americans – were identified following a congressionally mandated review to ensure that eligible recipients of the country’s highest recognition for valor were not bypassed due to prejudice.

Only three of the 24 were alive for President Barack Obama to drape the medals and ribbons around their necks.

“Today we have the chance to set the record straight,” Obama said. “No nation is perfect, but here in America we confront our imperfections and face a sometimes painful past, including the truth that some of these soldiers fought and died for a country that did not always see them as equal.”

The three surviving recipients – Vietnam veterans Jose Rodela, Melvin Morris and Santiago Erevia – received a prolonged standing ovation at Obama’s side, their faces set in somber acknowledgement of the honor.

Rodela, now of San Antonio, was a 31-year-old company commander of a Special Forces strike group Sept. 1, 1969, in Phuoc Long Province, Vietnam, when he and his company of Cambodian soldiers whom he had helped recruit came under fire from North Vietnamese Army troops.

According to his Medal of Honor citation and supporting documents, the battle lasted 18 hours and 11 men in his company were killed and 33 others wounded.

The citation states that late in the battle, Rodela “was the only member of his company

The ASSOCIATED PRESS SEATTLE – A news helicopter crashed into a street and burst into flames Tuesday near Seattle’s Space Needle, killing two people on board, badly injuring a man in a car and sending plumes of black smoke over the city during the morning commute.

The chopper was taking off from a helipad on the KOMO-TV station’s roof when it went down at a busy downtown intersection and hit three vehicles, starting them on fire and spewing burning fuel down the street.

Kristopher Reynolds, a contractor working nearby, said he saw the helicopter lift about 5 feet off the low-rise building before it started to tilt. The chopper looked like it was trying to correct itself when it took a dive.

“Next thing I know, it went into a ball of flames,” he said.

Seattle Mayor Ed Murray said that in response to the crash, the city will review its policies about permitting helicopter pads.

He noted the normally bustling Seattle Center wasn’t very busy at the time of the wreck on Broad Street. Had it been a busier day, “this would have been a much larger tragedy,” Murray said.

The Seattle Center campus is home to the Space Needle, restaurants and performing arts centers; it hosts a number of festivals throughout the year that draw thousands of visitors.

KOMO identified the pilot as Gary Pfitzner. The

Throughout the battle, in spite of his wounds, Rodela repeatedly exposed himself to enemy fire to attend to the fallen and eliminate an enemy rocket position.”

In an interview with the Army News Service last December, he said simply, “We trained for this and I would have done it again.”

Morris of Cocoa, Fla., was a staff sergeant during combat operations Sept. 17, 1969, near Chi Lang, South Vietnam. According to the Pentagon, Morris led soldiers across enemy lines to retrieve his team sergeant, who had been killed. He single-handedly destroyed an enemy force hidden in bunkers that had pinned down his battalion. Morris was shot three times as he ran with American casualties.

Morris received the Distinguished Service Cross in April 1970. That same month, he re-

turned to Vietnam for his second tour.

“I never really did worry about decorations,” Morris told The Associated Press last month. But he said he fell to his knees when he received the surprise call from Obama with news that he was to be honored.

Erevia, also of San Antonio, was cited for courage while serving as a radio-telephone operator May 21, 1969, during a search-and-clear mission near Tam Ky, South Vietnam.

He was a specialist 4 when his battalion tried to take a hill fortified by Viet Cong and North Vietnam Army soldiers. The Pentagon says he single-handedly silenced four Viet Cong bunkers.

As for the medal, he told the publication Soldier Live last month, “I’m only thankful I’m getting it while I’m alive.”

Tuesday’s mass ceremony, the largest since World War II, was the result of an Army review conducted under a directive from Congress in the 2002 National Defense Authorization Act. The law

required that the record of each Jewish-American and Hispanic-American veteran who received a Service Cross during or after World War II be reviewed for possible upgrade to the Medal of Honor.

The Pentagon said the Army reviewed the cases of the 6,505 recipients of the Distinguished Service Cross from World War II and the Korean and Vietnam wars and found an eligible pool of 600 soldiers who may have been Jewish or Hispanic. The Army also worked with the National Museum of American Jewish Military History, the Jewish War Veterans of the USA and the American GI Forum, the largest Hispanic-American veterans group, to pinpoint potential medal recipients.

During the initial review, investigators found that other minority soldiers who had received the Distinguished Service Cross appeared to meet the criteria for a Medal of Honor. Congress amended the directive to allow those soldiers to be considered for the upgraded honor.

other man killed in the crash was Bill Strothman, a former longtime KOMO photographer. Both men were working for the leasing company that operates the news helicopter, the station said.

Strothman was someone “who really knew how his pictures could tell a million words,” news anchor Dan Lewis said on the air. “He was just a true gentleman.”

“We’re going to miss you guys. And thanks so much for all that you gave to us,” Lewis said, choking up.

Firefighters who arrived at the scene before 8 a.m. found a “huge black cloud of smoke” and two cars and a pickup truck engulfed in flames, Seattle Fire Department spokesman Kyle Moore said.

Fuel running down the street also was on fire, and crews worked to stop the fuel before it entered the sewer, Moore said.

An injured man managed to free himself from a car and was taken to Harborview Medical Center, Moore said.

Richard Newman, 38, suffered burns on his lower back and arm, covering up to 20 percent of his body, hospital spokeswoman Susan Gregg said. He was in serious condition in the intensive care unit and likely would require surgery, she said.

Two others who were in cars that were struck by the helicopter were uninjured.

One of them, a woman, went to a police station and talked to officers, while a man from the pickup walked to a nearby McDonald’s restaurant.

Police later located him unhurt.

College loan study worth a close look New legislation filed by state Rep. Jack Franks would authorize the Illinois Student Assistance Commission to study a change in the way students pay for their college education.

Similar to legislation that has been filed in more than a dozen other states, the study would determine the financial feasibility of a “Pay It Forward” program, in which students attend college for free but pay for it after For the record graduation in the form of a small, Some are predicting that a fixed percentage massive defaulting of student of their income. loans is the next big threat to Repayment the U.S. economy. amounts could change as one’s earnings change.

We support the study.

Families with children in, approaching or already having graduated college know exactly how expensive higher education is. Most have to take out hefty loans that start coming due shortly after graduation, whether the student has a job or not.

According to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, there are about 37 million student loan borrowers with outstanding student loans today, amounting to between $902 billion and $1 trillion in total outstanding debt burden.

The national average for student loan debt is $29,400. In Illinois, it’s $28,028.

Some are predicting that a massive defaulting of student loans is the next big threat to the U.S. economy. Such debt also has a domino effect on the economy as a whole. If you can barely afford to repay your student loan, how are you going to buy a car, eat at restaurants or spend money elsewhere.

How to pay for the “Pay It Forward” program – so-called because students would benefit up front, then “pay it forward” for those who come after – will be key to the study. University professors and other staff need to be paid. Infrastructure needs to be maintained.

“That was my issue; I wasn’t sure how to pay for it,” said Franks, D-Marengo.

Franks’ bill passed the House unanimously and now is in the Senate. If it passes, Franks thinks the study can be completed by December.

If a reasonable recommendation comes from the study, Franks proposes Illinois conduct a pilot program with community colleges first.

“Then, once we find out how it works, we take it to our four-year universities,” he said.

We’re not sure what the study will find. But we hope the Senate approves the legislation so the study can take place.

SEALs to the rescue Three cheers for the U.S. Navy’s courageous commandos, who Monday thwarted an attempt by a rogue Libyan militia leader to sell stolen oil on the black market.

The Pentagon said President Barack Obama authorized the Mediterranean intervention Sunday night. Within hours, a Navy SEAL team on the guided missile destroyer Roosevelt had boarded and taken control of the Morning Glory in the Mediterranean near Cyprus.

No one was injured in operation, which was executed with the characteristic SEAL efficiency. It was a rare show of resolution by an administration that has often appeared uncertain, if not impotent, during the recent international crises that have stretched from Crimea to Venezuela.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Early American values, pt. 4 To the Editor: In the 1930s, European intelligentsia came to America.

Their goal was to change America’s form of government.

Their long-term plan was to teach our young people Socialism and Marxism principles. They were successful in becoming teachers.

I think over 90 percent of college and university professors are liberals. In many schools, a conservative professor cannot get tenure.

The many years of effort by these liberal socialistic teachers has changed America’s culture. Since the Supreme Court took religion out of government, the ACLU, an organization that has a goal of a communistic government for America, has been working hard to remove any reference to God from any publicly owned property.

As a result of so many Americans changing their beliefs from a Christian-based to a more secularbased government, there were significant changes made by liberal judges and politicians that have lowered American social values and character.

A few of the negative changes are: abortion resulting in millions of American deaths; embracing homosexuality as normal and teaching it to fifth-grade students; some states are allowing same-sex marriage; 5 percent of marriages end up in divorce; 20 percent of families are single-parent families; 70 percent of black children are born out of wedlock; 5 million Americans are receiving food stamps; one out of every seven American families are receiving entitlements from the

government.

There isn’t anyone I’ve talked to who likes this or thinks it’s good or even knows why anymore. So here’s a novel idea: How about all these politicians running for office pass a law to leave our clocks alone?

I guarantee they’ll get a lot of votes.

County Board District 1 hopeful Andrew Gasser raved about the significance of the takeover of the County Board’s Republican Party members because they are not radical enough.

The tea party agenda and its profoundly perverted attempts to systematically dismantle government and the Constitution should bring attention to politics on the local level, specifically in McHenry County.

Gasser wants to be a politician by any means, and the duplicity he will use to get there is deceptive and misleading. He wants to be on McHenry County Mental Health Board so he can downsize and outsource it. Gasser’s signs say Republican when in truth he is tea party.

This is a dangerous precedent for McHenry County. If you want to know who wants to take over McHenry County, follow the money. It will lead you to who is advising him and putting their ideas into his head and steering him away from what is right for us, not them, the tea party.

Upset with VA To the Editor: I served my country in the Navy for four years active and two years inactive.

I proudly wear my Navy cap when I go out. It is a wonderful feeling when someone says, “Thank you for serving,” and shakes my hand.

It’s too bad Veterans Affairs doesn’t say or do anything.

In the process of trying to acquire a veterans photo ID, the VA determined that I don’t meet the requirements for a picture ID. I don’t think it is a large amount of money. The VA said that I didn’t spend enough money to qualify for a picture ID. I wish someone could explain to me what this has to do with the price of tea in China.

Missing: A foreign policy from the ‘emperor with no clothes’ What happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 might eventually be discovered, but there is something else that has been missing for much longer and its “disappearance” has far greater implications for America.

It is our foreign policy. Can anyone say what it is?

With Russia’s Vladimir Putin behaving like a modern Catherine the Great in his efforts to annex Crimea and possibly all of Ukraine, what is our policy toward Russia, which is behaving increasingly like its former, supposedly dead, communist self?

In a New York Times op-ed column last week, Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain wrote: “Crimea has exposed the disturbing lack of realism that has characterized our foreign policy under President Obama. ... For five years, Americans have been told that ‘the tide of war

is receding,’ that we can pull back from the world at little cost to our interests and values. This has fed a perception that the United States is weak, and to people like Mr. Putin, weakness is provocative.”

Secretary of State John Kerry warns of a “strong response” by the U.S and severe economic sanctions against Russia if Putin proceeds as he has threatened in Ukraine.

Whose threats are more credible?

President Obama has retreated on everything from Iraq and Afghanistan to Iran’s nuclear program and his “red line,” which Syria crossed and paid no price when it used chemical weapons against its own people. He even has retreated on domestic policy issues, most glaringly on the individual mandate in the misnamed Affordable Care Act. Not only does the “emperor” have no clothes, he appears to the world as having no backbone and

VIEWS Cal Thomas no guts. It’s not just a question of military power. It is about formulating, articulating and implementing a consistent foreign policy that is credible and produces results in support of U.S. interests.

Somewhere between Ron Paul’s isolationism and neo-con interventionism is what the U.S. should be modeling to the world. Somewhere between John F. Kennedy’s noble, but impractical ideal of “pay any price, bear any burden” in the defense of liberty and George McGovern’s “come home America” is a foreign policy we should pursue. It’s up to the president to articulate that policy and then make it credible by consistently acting on it. Kennedy

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

also noted, “Domestic policy can only defeat us; foreign policy can kill us.”

Former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton spoke last week at the 2014 Conservative Political Action Conference. He said, “Our biggest national security crisis is Barack Obama.”

Bolton suggested the president allowed the murderers of America’s ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens, and three others to “get away scot free” after he had repeatedly promised they would be brought to justice.

Tyrants, terrorists and dictators watch an indecisive president and take note. Action matters far more than words.

President Obama, perhaps our most self-absorbed chief executive, has said: “I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any

president – with the possible exception of (Lyndon) Johnson, FDR, and Lincoln – just in terms of what we’ve gotten done in modern history.”

Leaving aside his hubris and a debate over whether retreat from the world and pressuring Israel to give up more land to its enemies are accomplishments, what should be concluded from such a ridiculous statement about America’s foreign policy?

Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has observed: “No foreign policy – no matter how ingenious – has any chance of success if it is born in the minds of a few and carried in the hearts of none.”

American foreign policy in 2014 hasn’t been born, because under this administration it does not even appear to have yet been conceived.

ARMED ROBBERY SUSPECT IN CUSTODY CARY – A person suspected of robbing a convenience store at 296 Cary-Algonquin Road is in custody, the police department said.

Cordell J. Miller, 25, of the 400 block of Crest Drive, is in custody of the Waukegan Police Department and is expected to be charged with at least two counts of armed robbery in Lake County, according to a news release. Further criminal charges are pending in McHenry County.

On Monday, police were called to the 400 block of Crest Drive for a domestic violence incident involving Miller, who fled the scene while possibly armed, police said. Waukegan police later in the evening apprehended Miller, who was a suspect in an armed robbery in Waukegan.

While being questioned, Miller implicated himself in armed robberies in Elgin and Cary, police said. The armed robbery in Cary took place on March 6.

Police searched the house on the 400 block of Crest Drive on Tuesday and found it was unoccupied.

Miller is scheduled for a bond hearing on Wednesday in Lake County.

The proposed 32-acre park would include a main course with six towers planted in the lake and connected at the top by cables that would pull riders around a

course with obstacles and stunt jumps. Two smaller two-tower courses would be available for novice riders.

Wakeboard parks require a series of cables and pulleys connected to towers that Aaron pull boarders Shepley along the waMayor ter similar to water skiing.

The cables are electric

“We’re still going to see this another couple times. I think the public will be hungry for details. This is just one step in the process.”

Crystal Lake Mayor Aaron Shepley powered.

It would be one of roughly 20 courses of its kind in the country.

“We’re still going to see this another couple times,” Mayor Aaron Shepley said,

reminding the council not everything needs to be decided immediately. “I think the public will be hungry for details. This is just one step in the process.”

Taking advantage of warmer weather Village

- Joseph Bustos

The word “sustainable” means “able to be maintained.”

This definition can be applied to various subjects, and the concept of sustainability can be overwhelming because of the comprehensive nature of the word, but the root meaning is actually a simple concept that is intuitive to most people.

What does an ant colony need to sustain itself? It needs access to fresh water, clean air to breathe, healthy food and a suitable location for the colony.

The natural world has supplied these necessities to the ants, and the only waste produced is a fertilizer. Therefore, the ant colony is an example of a sustainable society.

The way we live our lives, the way our products are manufactured, transported and disposed of, the energy systems we employ, and even how our food is grown is threatening our future.

Principles of sustainability can restore and nourish these environments, while maintaining or improving our current standard of living.

Our actions affect our environment, and we can choose if the action has a negative or a positive effect. Find information at www.centerforsustainability. org.

It would be a full-service restaurant that serves alcohol, but any alcohol would be limited to the restaurant and patio area and any wakeboard riders would have to turn in their wristband – which allows them to ride – before consuming a drink.

Dog rescued after falling through ice on Fox River

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com PORT BARRINGTON – Rescuers from the Wauconda Fire District rescued a dog that fell through the ice on the Fox River roughly 100 yards offshore.

Around 10 a.m. Monday, the fire district answered a call from a resident with binoculars who could spot the dog struggling to stay above the water off Eastwood Avenue in Port Barrington.

Wauconda Fire District

“Residents and visitors need to remember no ice is safe ice. The ice in this situation was unable to support the weight of a dog and certainly would not be safe for a fisherman, skater or snowmobiler.”

Lt. Mark Dierker Wauconda Fire District Lt. Adam Schlick was able to rescue the dog within seven minutes, according to Lt. Mark Dierker.

The dog was exhausted but appeared in good health, Dierker said. It was taken to

a veterinary clinic as a precaution.

“He’s doing OK,” Dierker said. “He’s just really, really tired. Cold and tired.”

Officials learned the dog, named Joey, had been miss-

ing for around two hours before he was rescued. Joey’s owners were out of town and he was being watched by a dog sitter.

Dierker said the incident is a good reminder to people about ice conditions this time of year.

“Residents and visitors need to remember no ice is safe ice,” Dierker said. “The ice in this situation was unable to support the weight of a dog and certainly would not be safe for a fisherman, skater or snowmobiler.”

ALGONQUIN – The village has finalized its proposed $39.9 million budget for the upcoming fiscal year. The Algonquin Village Board is scheduled to vote on the budget at its April 1 meeting.

Village officials expect the $19 million general fund budget – which pays for most services including police, streets and parks and recreation – will be balanced, according to village documents.

The total $39.9 million budget also includes infrastructure projects and water and sewer services.

“It is the overriding principle of the budget to deliver outstanding service to our citizens at a reasonable price without drawing down the village’s working capital, assuming no additional tax burden on our residents,” Village Manager Tim Schloneger wrote in a memo to Village Board members.

There are no new taxes as part of the village’s budget plan, according to the budget memo.

The village expects revenues and expenditures to increase by about 3 percent.

“No significant reduction to services to our residents is anticipated in the 2014-15 fiscal year budget, and the village’s cash position remains solid,” Schloneger said.

Among the village’s revenue sources, officials project to bring in $7.2 million in sales tax.

“Commercial and retail growth remains modest in Algonquin as in the entire

Woodstock OKs extra funds for courthouse dome Additional $16,000 will go toward repairing portions of structure

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Rotted portions of the Old Courthouse cupola will require some unanticipated funds as the contractor restarts work on the structure as weather warms.

The Woodstock City Council on Tuesday approved three change orders totaling about $16,000 that will go toward repairing and replacing dilapidated portions of the dome.

“Like any old structure, the more work we do, the more problems we seem to find.”

Cort Carlson Director of community and economic development While the expenditures weren’t anticipated when bids were collected for the work, such additions are common in these types of projects, City Planner Nancy Baker said.

More minor changes could be forthcoming as the contractor continues to uncover portions of the cupola, she added.

“Like any old structure, the more work we do, the

more problems we seem to find,” Director of Community and Economic Development Cort Carlson said.

The roof and dome restoration – a $376,000 project approved in October – is off to a slow start thanks to an immediately and consistently cold winter.

“We’d hoped they’d be able to do more on the dome part,” Baker said.

Baker said the project is still in line to meet its scheduled completion by the end of

June.

The dome and cupola restoration is part of a $4.7 million plan to repair the Old Courthouse and Sheriff’s House.

The city, which originally planned to complete about $2 million in repairs before selling to a private party, has since decided to seek ownership interest earlier in the process.

A request for proposals went out in January. Proposals are due by May 1.

The village also kept its real estate tax levy flat for the upcoming budget and expects to bring in about $5.8 million in property tax revenue.

For those employees who are not part of unions, the village has budgeted a 2.5 percent pay increase. However, increases would be based on merit.

“The proposed raises can reflect job performance rather than automatic, acrossthe-board pay increases,” Schloneger wrote.

The program has been modified to only cover the situation where a property owner wants an additional parkway tree.

Village officials also are planning several capital purchases.

The police department plans to replace one community service vehicle with a pickup truck and replace multiple squad car laptops and printers that are obsolete.

The village plans to replace two vehicles in the streets department for $50,000 each.

“Only capital purchases that are absolutely necessary for a more efficient operation are included in this budget,” Schloneger wrote.

“The most popular events and recreational sessions remain on the schedule for the year and some less popular events have been eliminated,” Schloneger wrote.

“If all the programs are successful, revenues generated from the events will cover most, but not all, of these proposed expenditures,” Schloneger added.

CRYSTAL LAKE: EVENT WILL BE APRIL 2

Community invited to Centegra’s annual lung health symposium NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – Centegra Health System will host a lung health symposium from 6:30 to 8 p.m. April 2 at McHenry County College, 8900 Route 14.

Those who want to learn more about lung health and lung cancer are invited to attend the symposium. Lung cancer remains the No. 1 cause of death in McHenry County.

The annual event will feature an informative and interactive lecture by board-certified doctors who specialize in lung issues.

Cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon Dr. Thomas

Hinkamp, diagnostic radiologist Dr. John Guido and radiation oncologist Dr. Terrence Bugno will present.

They are all independent physicians on the medical staff at Centegra Health System.

They will discuss aspects of lung health, information about the main causes of lung cancer and what people can do to prevent, detect and treat it.

Smoking cessation efforts, radon detection, preventive lung health and more will be highlighted.

“Beyond more effective, individualized treatments for lung cancer, there must be more focused attention paid to known causes and pre-

vention,” Bugno said. “New lung cancer screening programs are available to detect this condition in its earliest, more treatable stages. Too often, lung cancer shows no symptoms until it has already spread throughout the body.”

Bugno said that by expanding the community’s understanding of lung cancer’s causes, more appropriate health behaviors could be adopted.

The symposium will feature a question and answer session that will include other Centegra health care providers.

For information about the cancer symposium or to register, call 877-236-8347.

During a four-hour period on Lakewood Road between Miller and Algonquin roads, police set up a distracted driving enforcement zone for the use of cellphones while operating a vehicle.

“The Lake in the Hills police will continue to conduct extra enforcement efforts for this new law in 2014,” said Sgt. Eric Decker, supervisor of the Lake in the Hills Traffic Unit.

At the beginning of this year, it became illegal in the state to drive while using a handheld cellphone.

La’akia, 2nd grade

Please include your school and grade.

If I were a snake I would be an anaconda because they can get huge. I would live in a tropical rainforest. I would make a habitat close to the water because anacondas live mostly in water. I would sleep most of the day.

The only bad thing is that I would have to eat animals. And that’s why I want to be a snake.

Justin, 4th grade

If I were a snake I would eat a lot of mice. I would slither to move. I would I would be a corn snake and slither live in a big hole. I would slither with around in my smooth, scaly skin. I love my snake friends. We would slight fight. mice and I live in a corn field.

I would bite people on their arms and Yanell, hands, then, me and my snake friends 4th grade would go eat mice.

John, 4th grade

Four-leaf Clover

I knew my luck would change when I picked up a four-leaf clover.

When I picked up the four-leaf clover it was the night before leprechauns day. I really wanted gold coins. So the leprechaun gave me some gold coins if I gave him the four-leaf clover. I did and he gave me some chocolates too.

MTV LAUNCHES MEMORIAL SITE FOR CHARACTER’S DEATH

THINGS

NEW YORK – Thousands of young fans of MTV’s “Teen Wolf” series are turning to a website set up by the network to offer a gathering place for people to collectively mourn the sudden death of one of the show’s main characters.

Twelve hours after “Teen Wolf” ended Monday night, more than 100,000 people had visited TeenWolfMemorial.com, with more than 4,000 posting messages about the character Allison Argent (played by Crystal Reed), who died after a mythical Japanese demon stabbed her with her sword.

Even more dramatic, she died proclaiming her undying love to her ex-boyfriend, the drama’s lead character Scott McCall (played by Tyler Posey).

BUZZWORTHY

Stones call off tour after L’Wren Scott’s death NEW YORK – The Rolling Stones have called off tour dates in Australia and New Zealand following the death of Mick Jagger’s girlfriend L’Wren Scott.

The iconic band said in a statement Tuesday they “are deeply sorry and disappointed to announce the postponement of the rest of their 14 ON FIRE tour.”

The Stones were scheduled to play Wednesday in Perth, Australia, and at other stops this week and next week, including Melbourne and Sydney. Tickets holders should keep their tickets, the statement said.

Scott, a noted fashion designer, died Monday in New York City of an apparent suicide.

Judge allows lawsuit over Kardashian-West proposal LOS ANGELES – A lawsuit by Kim Kardashian and Kanye West over leaked footage of their marriage proposal can proceed because it does not violate the free speech rights of the co-founder of YouTube, a judge ruled Tuesday.

The ruling came as Superior Court Judge Ruth Ann Kwan rejected a motion by tech entrepreneur Chad Hurley seeking dismissal of the case against him on constitutional grounds.

Hurley was sued days after posting a video of West’s lavish proposal to Kardashian in October on his new video-sharing website MixBit. Their court filings have stated the video preempted the official release of footage by E! Entertainment Television.

West and Kardashian claim Hurley violated a confidentiality agreement and may have infringed the rights of the producers of the reality series, “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” who filmed the proposal at San Francisco’s AT&T Park.

The lawsuit states that Hurley wasn’t invited to the event and accompanied another guest. Kardashian’s mother Kris Jenner wrote in a sworn statement that Hurley would have been kicked out of the event if he hadn’t signed the confidentiality agreement.

Hurley eventually removed the video from MixBit. Hurley contends he posted his footage only after seeing pictures and congratulatory messages from celebrities online.

West and Kardashian are seeking unspecified damages.

A trial on the case is scheduled for Nov. 17.

Global music revenue dips 3.9 percent on Japan decline LOS ANGELES – Global music revenues fell 3.9 percent to $15 billion in 2013, pulled down by a sharp decline in compact disc sales in Japan, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry.

Japan, which accounts for more than a fifth of worldwide sales, saw revenue fall 16.7 percent as sales of CDs and ringtones declined while streaming services had yet to catch on, the trade group said Tuesday.

Outside of Japan, the growing popularity of free and paid streaming music services such as Pandora and Spotify are helping offset the decline of CD sales. Excluding Japan, global music revenue fell just 0.1 percent.

Global digital music revenue grew 4.3 percent to $5.9 billion in 2013. Physical revenue declined 11.7 percent to $7.7 million, performance rights revenue grew 19 percent to $1.1 billion, while synchronization revenue from use of songs in movies and TV shows fell 3.4 percent to $322 million.

The IFPI said rising demand for subscription services contributed to a shift away from piracy. The number of paying

subscribers rose 40 percent last year to 28 million.

‘Two Fat Ladies’ star Dickson Wright dies at 66 LONDON – Clarissa Dickson Wright, a vivid and outspoken British television personality who found fame as half of the food-loving duo “Two Fat Ladies,” has died at the age of 66.

Her agents, Heather Holden-Brown and Elly James, said Dickson Wright died Saturday at Edinburgh’s Royal Infirmary of an unspecified illness.

Clarissa Theresa Philomena Aileen Mary Josephine Agnes Elsie Trilby Louise Esmerelda Dickson Wright grew up in an affluent London family, the daughter of a brilliant surgeon who was also a violent alcoholic.

She worked as a lawyer until her own alcoholism put an early end to a high-flying career. After giving up alcohol she worked as caterer and ran a cookery book store before being talent-spotted by the BBC for a new series.

In “Two Fat Ladies,” Dickson Wright and Jennifer Paterson traveled Britain in an old Triumph motorcycle and sidecar, cooking lavish meals inspired by local tradition and trading quips about life, love and food. The program became a big international hit for the BBC and ran until Paterson died of cancer in 1999, at the age of 71.

Close loss a step up from 6-0 defeat to Corsairs last season

By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com MUNDELEIN – Two years ago, the Prairie Ridge girls soccer team allowed a tough goal on a corner kick in a one-goal sectional final loss against Freeport. On Tuesday, the Wolves allowed a nearly identical goal against Carmel that led to the same outcome.

With 18:40 left in the first half, Corsairs forward Kayla Handel lined up for a corner kick, booted the ball with her right leg and watched as the wind carried the curving ball into the back of the net, just inside the far post.

D-C rallies to win Dundee-Crown overcomes a two-goal deficit to beat Streamwood, 5-4, in the Chargers’ girls soccer season opener.

PAGE C3 “I looked at Larissa [Dooley] and Erin [Ginsberg], who were on the bench, and I said ‘Did that remind you of anything?’ ” Wolves coach JC Brown said. “They were thinking the same thing: sectionals two years ago.”

Handel’s goal just a little more

than halfway through the first half turned out to be the match-winner as Carmel defeated the Wolves, 1-0, on a cold, windy afternoon.

Other than that goal, the Wolves (0-1) held a quick and aggressive Carmel team to just five more shots the rest of the way. Returning players from last season, such as Ginsberg and Ali Fanning, took away positives from the close match after losing to Carmel last season, 6-0.

“After last season playing Carmel, we knew it was going to be hard,” said Fanning, one of the team’s top defenders. “I was kind of surprised that it

was just 1-0. We were all excited.”

Playing strong and aggressive defense has been a staple for the Wolves under Brown and is what kept the match close. The defenders, led by Fanning and her freshman sister, Gabbi, helped keep the pressure off goalkeeper Brooke Laibly.

Carmel opted to play with an aggressive breakout and consistently had the ball in its offensive zone but came up empty as the Wolves defenders used speed and position to turn many chances away.

Results will be announced April 21. Only A simple majority is necessary.

Teams currently are allowed to begin practicing in full pads starting on the fifth day of the 25-day summer contact period. Although IHSA officials understand most coaches already limit full-contact drills, the rule change would keep “rogue” coaches from not putting any limits on how much players hit one another.

“We think this (proposal) is something that brings some limitations to our summer activities in football that we basically had no control over,” IHSA associate director and football administrator Craig Anderson said Tuesday. “That opportunity (for coaches to provide unlimited full-contact drills) was concerning on a few different levels. It was just time to put into place some protocols that provided some restrictions.”

Crystal Lake Central coach Matt Fralick is torn about how big of an impact not being able to work out in full pads would be. The Tigers work out six to seven times in full pads, starting with a two-week team camp in mid-July and then again toward the end of summer workouts.

But Fralick said he can understand why the IHSA is considering eliminating fullpadded workouts to help curb serious head injuries.

FLYERS 3, BLACKHAWKS 2 (OT)

Hawks let another point slip away in OT Giroux nets winner with 4.2 seconds left

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com PHILADELPHIA – After yet another crucial point – they’re all crucial points at this crucial point of the season – slipped through their fingers, with Claude Giroux scoring with 4.2 seconds left in overtime to give the Flyers a tense 3-2 victory Tuesday night, the Blackhawks didn’t have much time to stew.

They made the quick sixmile drive from Wells Fargo Center to the airport, hopped a charter flight back to Chicago and tried to rest up as much as they could for their latest super showdown, a home game against the league-leading St. Louis Blues on Wednesday night.

CUBS SPRING TRAINING

8SPORTS SHORTS

Kalish grateful for chance

MCC men’s tennis team shuts out Rock Valley

By PATRICK FINLEY pfinley@suntimes.com MESA, Ariz. – Ryan Kalish can explain his surgery in jock shorthand now: He got the Peyton Manning.

Maybe that’s simpler than getting into the gory details – that last August, a doctor cut his neck open, removed part of a disc, put part of his hipbone in his neck and added two screws on top, two on the bottom and a metal plate in the middle.

By the time Kalish decided to have spinal-fusion surgery, the former Red Sox prospect already had made peace with his baseball career, however it ended up. In a way, that made the decision easier.

Kalish needed surgery on his left shoulder after diving for a ball in 2011, then surgery on his right shoulder a year later. He had two neck procedures, the fusion when the tingling and burning wouldn’t stop.

“The way I was feeling,” the Cubs outfielder said Tuesday, “I needed something to just believe in again.”

Consider it a success: Entering Tuesday night’s spring game against the Texas Rangers, Kalish was hitting .300 in 20 plate appearances. His five

steals were tied for fifth-most in the Cactus League.

His first full spring training in three years got longer, too, after he survived cuts that optioned outfielders Brett Jackson and Josh Vitters to Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday.

That Kalish is a contender Ryan for the Cubs’ Kalish fifth outfield job is impressive, considering his last at-bat before this spring was in August 2012.

“I’m trying to get back to that natural state of playing the game,” he said. “Outfield, I feel comfortable at all three [spots].

Stealing bases. And the swing – as the spring goes on, is actually getting more natural. The pitches are slowing down.

“After two years off, man, those first couple weeks, those pitches were looking mighty hard. It’s definitely getting back to the natural state I want it to be in.”

The five-tool talent is there.

Kalish was ranked in Baseball America’s Top 100 after the 2007 season. He got 163 at-bats with the 2010 Red Sox – at age 22 – and returned for 96 more in 2012.

“At this point, man, I’m trying to not be a prospect anymore,” he said. “I’m trying to be an every-day major-league player.”

Cubs team president Theo Epstein, the former Red Sox general manager, called Kalish after he became a free agent.

Kalish said Epstein cares for him – “It’s not just about throwing a piece of meat out on the field and seeing what you can do,” he said – but he also knew the Cubs would be a good fit.

“Fresh perspective is really key,” Kalish said. “There’s opportunity. There’s opportunity to be a leader. There’s opportunity to be a legend.”

Cubs manager Rick Renteria knows from experience how an injury can change a player’s perspective.

“When you get your opportunity, you enjoy it, and you really do relish it,” Renteria said.

“And I think you bear down; all the little things just kinda come. You start recognizing things you should be doing. I certainly think he’s been taking advantage of the opportunity he has right now.”

Kalish certainly appreciates it.

“The spring has been awesome, man,” he said. “I keep saying to people, ‘I’m just happy to play.’’’

with less than 10 seconds left) prevented the Hawks from taking second place outright.

It’s a familiar result. Twenty Hawks games have gone past 60 minutes this season, and the Hawks have gotten two points out of just five of them – all in shootouts.

As a result, the Hawks (and Avalanche) find themselves eight points behind the Blues with 13 games left in the regular season. And St. Louis has a game in hand, too.

“We could have used a few of those points,” Hawks coach Joel Quenneville said. “Could have put us in a better spot.”

Duncan Keith insisted that first place was still attainable, saying there were plenty of points still to be won. Toews said the Hawks weren’t even thinking about that, pointing to Wednesday’s game against a Blues team that has won all three meetings with the Hawks so far and saying, “One thing at a time.”

Georgia players charged in check-cashing case

Auburn hires Pearl as basketball coach

ATLANTA – Four Georgia football players were released on bond after their arrests on charges of illegal check-cashing.

An investigation found that three players – starting safety Tray Matthews, defensive linemen Jonathan Taylor and James DeLoach – received double payments for checks of $71.50 issued by the Georgia athletic department, University of Georgia Chief of Police Jimmy Williamson said Tuesday.

The players were released Monday night after their arrests on misdemeanor charges of theft by deception.

The players deposited the paper checks through a mobile device and also cashed the checks at a convenience store, according to Williamson.

Wide receiver Uriah LeMay was charged with cashing a roommate’s check after the check had been deposited through a mobile app, Williamson added.

The players turned themselves in, and such misdemeanor offenses can result in fines up to $1,000 and jail terms up to one year, campus police said.

Springtime Bo makes rounds; impressed by Garcia Cleaning Time WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com GLENDALE, Ariz. – Whether he’s walking around the clubhouse or weight room with his head held high, wearing a black Under Armour top that shows off a build that screams football as much as it does baseball, Avisail Garcia just catches your eye.

He caught Bo Jackson’s right away this week at spring training – and that’s worth noting.

Jackson, a former White Sox outfielder and a professional standout in two sports who was named the greatest athlete of all time by ESPN’s Sports Science, knows talent. Hired as a Sox ambassador this winter, Jackson took a week to get away from his business ventures – and a brutal Chicago winter – to put on a uniform and interact with players like Garcia. Jackson characterized the interaction as “messing with people.”

“I’m still learning the names of the younger players,” Jackson said Tuesday.

“I’m getting to know the big kid, Garcia. He looks more like a defensive end than a right fielder. Actually, he’s a carbon copy of the kid [Miguel Cabrera] from Detroit.

“I’m like, ‘Dang, when did they get him?’

And they told me he’s 22 years old, so he’s younger than my youngest kid. He’s just a baby, and talent just oozes from his pores.

He looks like he’ll be a tremendous asset for the team.”

Garcia smiled sheepishly when he heard that. Everybody knows Bo, even Venezuelan athletes like Garcia who never played football.

“It makes me feel great when someone like him talks about you like that,” Garcia said. “He’s impressive. For a guy to be an

Only once, to be exact. Jackson, who played for the Sox in 1991 and 1993, was an All-Star with the Kansas City Royals in 1989. Garcia wasn’t even born when Jackson was in his heyday, winning the Heisman Trophy as a fast, bulldozing running back at Auburn in 1985 and playing four seasons for the Oakland Raiders in the NFL before suffering a serious hip injury and focusing on baseball.

“A few of them [know my background],” Jackson said. “I noticed some guys were on their iPad or phone, Googling. Then they find out my history and come back and [say]: ‘Can you sign this for me? Can you sign my baseball or my jersey?’ Even footballs. There’s footballs in spring training.”

Jackson, who has made Chicago his home for 22 years, doesn’t care to do interviews, but he handles them comfortably.

He touched on various subjects, including former teammate and Hall of Famer Frank Thomas and the Cubs.

On the Cubs: “What’s a Cub? I don’t ven-

ture on the North Side. I don’t know anything about the North Side. I don’t venture there.”

On Thomas: “He deserved it, and I texted him the morning he got in or the morning after. That’s all that needed to be said, really. He was a better hitter [than me]. Frank is a thinking hitter, whereas I got up, I saw the ball, I hit the ball and I ran like [heck].

Frank deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.”

Jackson, 51, said he doesn’t miss playing but misses the camaraderie with teammates. He is the founder of Bo Bikes Bama, a charity bike ride that will be held for the third time next month to raise money for victims of the Alabama tornadoes of 2011.

In 2013, he was honored with the Beacon Award, which recognizes individuals whose lives have embodied the spirit of the civil-rights movement.

Because athletes are getting better, faster and stronger over time, Jackson said he doubts his two-sport achievement will be seen again.

“I probably couldn’t [have done it in this era], no,” he said. “Just because the talent pool is that deep now.

“I’m not trying to say anything negative about other athletes, but the talent pool wasn’t that deep [when I played]. In this day and age, with all the high-tech training, computer-engineered workouts and the proper food and diet, if you try to concentrate on two sports, I guarantee you’re going to ride the bench in both because the talent is that deep. Stick to whatever sport you’re comfortable with and let everything else go.”

Hear that, Avi? Don’t even think about football.

“If they want me to play, I play,” Garcia said. “No, I’m messing with you. I’m not too interested.”

Keeper Laibly makes 5 saves in Wolves’ loss • SOCCER Continued from page C1 Laibly made five stops in the loss but only faced two hard shots and stopped both, including one where she collided with a Corsairs forward.

But while the Wolves played strong defense, the offense hadn’t caught up. Without the benefit of practicing outside because of the weather, Brown said spacing was an issue as well as “width concepts.”

The Wolves also were missing two key offensive components from last season’s deep state run as Dooley sat out Tuesday, still dealing with an illness, and sweeper Hallie Simons also sat while recovering from an injury.

“I think they could have played but it’s not worth the risk,” Brown said. “Once those

two get back, we will be a totally different team.”

Brown added that the two likely will miss Wednesday’s game at Lake Forest as well.

The offense that the Wolves did produce, however, came from a hard-working Ginsberg. After being a key piece coming off the bench last season, the senior moved into a starting roll and generated two of the Wolves four shots on goal.

Just nine minutes into the match, the forward took the ball down the sideline and fired a shot right into Carmel goalkeeper Mackenzie Burns’ chest. Ginsberg had another opportunity late in the match but Burns batted it aside.

“I think we did a good job and I think we held our own today,” Ginsberg said. “Even though we didn’t test their goalie too much.”

I think you can evaluate kids in helmets and shoulder pads pretty much the whole summer.”

Under the proposal, schools would be allowed to practice in helmets only for the first two days of summer workouts before moving to helmets and shoulder pads on the third day and beyond.

The IHSA began considering limits after meeting with officials from the Sports Legacy Institute and Korey Stringer Institute as well as conducting town hall meetings with State Rep. Carol Sente (D-Lincolnshire). Anderson said members of the IHSA football advisory committee and sports medicine committee determined that some restrictions needed to be put in place.

Whether the IHSA’s full membership agrees remains to be seen.

NCAA TOURNAMENT: WISCONSIN

Ryan coaching tree spreads across NCAA tournament 3 former assistants take teams to dance

By GENARO C. ARMAS The Associated Press MADISON, Wis. – Somewhere in a Wisconsin basketball media guide or highlight DVD is a photo that made coach Bo Ryan especially proud this past week.

Ryan remembers it well. He’s there with then-assistants Rob Jeter, Tony Bennett and Saul Phillips celebrating a big Badgers victory. Now they’re all in the NCAA tournament together as head coaches.

The Ryan coaching tree is in full bloom this March.

“Everybody that’s in that huddle is in the NCAA tournament,” Ryan said. “It’s always nice to be dancing.”

Second-seeded Wisconsin opens the tournament Thursday against 15th-seeded American in Milwaukee. Ho-hum, just a 16th straight year in the NCAAs for the Badgers.

Bennett, a Wisconsin assistant for Ryan’s Badgers debut season in 2001, has Virginia one better as the top seed in the East region after winning the Atlantic Coast Conference. The Cavaliers face Coastal Carolina on Friday in Raleigh, N.C. Phillips, an assistant under Ryan at Wisconsin-Milwaukee before following Ryan to the Badgers for a few years, is now head coach of Summit League champion North Dakota State. His team plays Oklahoma on Thursday in Spokane, Wash.

Jeter, the current coach at Milwaukee, had the toughest road after leading a team picked last in the Horizon League preseason poll to the conference tournament title and an automatic NCAA bid. Milwaukee is a No. 15 seed in the East and plays Villanova on Thursday in Buffalo, N.Y. Jeter and Ryan have been in touch a few times over the past week, and Jeter may

the time, the Badgers were in also in the midst of a slump of five losses in six games.

The players noticed that defense was a problem.

“I said, ‘But have you noticed anything else? They haven’t changed a thing. They didn’t change defenses. They didn’t change how they cover. They just walked harder at it,’” Jeter said. “To me, it’s just a reminder of staying the course, work your plan and you’ve got to believe in what you’re doing.”

After learning Sunday of North Dakota State’s fate, Phillips gave credit to Ryan and his late father, Butch Ryan, who passed away last summer.

Phillips said Butch Ryan “was like a crazy uncle to all of us ... I can’t help but think somehow Butch is up there orchestrating this all so all Bo’s guys get in. It’s pretty special.”

On Phillips’ coaching staff is Ryan’s eldest son, Will Ryan. He played for his father on the Division III national title teams at Wisconsin-Platteville in 1998-99, and followed his dad to Milwaukee the next two years. Later, Will Ryan joined his dad on the Wisconsin staff as a volunteer assistant.

“It’s awesome just being from a tree where you’ve got a lot of support,” said Milwaukee assistant Sharif Chambliss, another former Badgers player under Ryan.

“But with coach Ryan he’s not going to give you anything. Nothing with coach Ryan is given.

“You can ask his sons probably about that the most,” Chambliss said. “You’ve got to earn it and then he’ll support you.”

Every year at the Final Four, Ryan takes former assistants or players to dinner no matter what has happened to their respective teams in the tourney. It could be a big bill this year.

“The dinner is going to be a lot more fun this year,” Chambliss said. “He has a lot of guys in there.”

reach out again before Thursday. But he knows not to pester Ryan too much. You know “how he gets,” Jeter told reporters.

And that would be?

“His attention to detail is so obvious.

He just really demands – OK let’s move to the next thing. Let’s make sure that we’re ready. I think as an assistant, you wonder if he’s really enjoying the moment,” Jeter said before practice Monday. “He really is, but he’s so competitive.”

The students don’t just all copy the Wisconsin playbook. Heck, even Wisconsin is a little different this season with more offensive balance and firepower.

But other things learned from Ryan stick. During one of Milwaukee’s rough • Associated Press writer Dave Kolpack patches this season, Jeter asked his players if they were also watching Wisconsin. At in Fargo, N.D., contributed to this story.

Dixon on pace to set Iowa career record for 3s • MUSICK Continued from page C1 “They’re really similar to us,” Dixon said. “All five of their starters are in double digit scoring, so that’s similar to us. They shoot really well.”

Then again, so do the Hawkeyes.

Dixon said her experiences at Iowa have exceeded all of her expectations.

The Hawkeyes were a No. 9 seed in each of the past two seasons, so this season marks the highest seed for her.

“It’s become expected that we make the NCAA tournament every year,” said Dixon, who was named Northwest

Herald Player of the Year as a junior and senior. “Coach [Lisa] Bluder has done such a great job building up this program. It really is a special program, and we all work so hard and dedicate our Melissa lives to this Dixon program.”

In addition to team success, that hard work has paid off with individual success for Dixon. This year, she set a school record for 3-pointers in a single season (93), and she could break the school’s all-time 3-point record next

season as a senior.

Dixon always has thrived beyond the 3-point arc, but this season she worked hard to create more high-percentage shots.

“I’ve tried to improve my overall game,” Dixon said.

“My freshman year and sophomore year, I would just come in and try to knock down some shots for the team. This year, I’ve been trying to improve my overall game and get to the basket a little bit more, work on my jump shots more, but obviously continue to work on my 3-point shot, too.”

No matter where the shots come from Sunday, Dixon will have her family’s full

support. In attendance will be her parents, Scott and Cindy, along with her brothers, Mike and Steve. Mike is a senior at Iowa, while Steve is a senior at Johnsburg and is slated to attend Iowa next year.

Years ago, the siblings would gather to fill out brackets.

Now, Dixon is an essential part of one.

“It’s something that I dreamed of growing up as a kid,” Dixon said. “It’s awesome that it has come true.”

Hawkeyes’ minds on McCaffery, son

By JOE KAY The Associated Press DAYTON, Ohio – Iowa coach Fran McCaffery will be in and out of Dayton as the Hawkeyes get ready for their first NCAA tournament game in eight years.

He had a flight arranged to Iowa City on Tuesday night so he could be with 13-yearold son Patrick, who is having surgery Wednesday morning to remove a thyroid tumor.

The coaching staff will lead the team through its morning meeting and a light practice while he’s away.

McCaffery expects to be back in time for the game against Tennessee (21-12) in the NCAA First Four on Wednesday night.

“Hopefully, I’ll be back before the last meeting we have, which is typically right before pregame meal or right after pregame meal, and be ready to coach the game,” McCaffery said. “Assuming all goes well.”

His players’ thoughts go with him.

The Hawkeyes (20-12) have a lot on their minds during their long-awaited return to the tournament. A team that was ranked No. 10 in the AP Top 25 poll two months ago wound up with one of the final at-large bids after dropping six of its past seven games.

They’ll face a Tennessee team that has won five of six and is in the tournament for the seventh time in the past nine years. The Volunteers lost to Michigan in their last appearance in 2011.

As they prepare for Tennessee, the Hawkeyes are thinking about a teenager having surgery back home.

“Pat is a guy that is basically at practice with us every day. He’s like our little brother,” guard Roy Devyn Marble said. “He’s in a tough spot, so we’re just trying to make this as simple and easy for him as possible.”

Five things to watch in their First Four game: Tournament twins: Iowa and Tennessee already spent some time together at a tournament in the Bahamas in November. They scouted each other in case they’d play, but never met. Instead, both of them beat Xavier, which also ended up in the First Four in Dayton playing Tuesday night. They still have those scouting reports, but so much has changed that they’re not really all that helpful.

“I think we’re a totally different team in all aspects from top to bottom,” Tennessee forward Jeronne Maymon aid.

Shooting stars: One of the most intriguing matchups will be the shooting guards.

AP photo

Iowa’s Roy Devyn Marble shoots during practice Tuesday in Dayton, Ohio. Iowa plays Tennessee on Wednesday in an NCAA First Four game.

Marble is 6-foot-6 and averages a team-high 17.3 points.

Tennessee’s Jordan McRae is 6-6 and averages a team-high 18.6 points.

“I think our games resemble each other a little bit,” said Marble, whose father Roy remains Iowa’s leading scorer with 2,116 career points from 1986 to ’89. “He’s asked to carry a lot of the scoring load for that team, and, yes, I will be guarding him.”

Tennessee D: The Volunteers finished the season strong by relying on their defense. They’ve held their past four opponents to an average of 47.4 points. In the past five games, they’ve given up only 38, 54, 45, 44 and 56 points.

Tennessee allowed 61.1 points in SEC games, trailing only Florida in stinginess.

Hawkeye second halves: Iowa’s defense has disintegrated in the second half lately, leading to that streak of six losses in seven games. Northwestern shot 55 percent from the field in the second half of the Wildcats’ 67-62 win in the first round of the Big Ten tournament. The Hawkeyes have done an acceptable job at containing the other teams’ top threats, only to get hurt by someone else having a big game. Iowa has allowed 86 or more points three times in the past six games.

McCaffery’s place: Even though the Hawkeyes don’t have any NCAA tournament experience on the roster, their head coach has plenty of it and enjoyed one of his best March moments at University of Dayton Arena in 2009, when his Siena team beat Ohio State 74-72 in double overtime.

“We’re in the locker room next to the locker room that we celebrated in,” said McCaffery, who has led four teams to the tournament. “I remember walking off the floor like it was yesterday.”

Tennessee played NCAA tournament games in Dayton in 2001 and 2009 and lost both of them.

N.C. State, Albany advance in tourney The ASSOCIATED PRESS

(21-14) from getting any traction in the second half.

DAYTON, Ohio – Given a second chance, T.J. Warren put on a show in the NCAA tournament.

The hard-to-guard sophomore forward scored 16 of his 25 points in the second half Tuesday night, showing why he was the Atlantic Coast Conference’s player of the year, and North Carolina State led most of the way in a 74-59 victory over Xavier in the NCAA tournament’s First Four.

N.C. State (22-12) didn’t have much time to celebrate.

The 12th-seeded Wolfpack headed to Orlando, Fla., for a game Thursday against St. Louis in the Midwest Regional.

Warren had the most to do with it. He made up for a freshman tournament flop on the same floor a year earlier and prevented Xavier

Albany 71, Mount St. Mary’s 64: D.J. Evans scored 22 points, including two clinching free throws with 12.6 seconds left, to lead Albany to its first NCAA tournament victory, over Mount St. Mary’s.

The Great Danes (19-14) advance to meet overall No. 1 seed and top-ranked Florida on Thursday in Orlando.

It was a wild game of incredible turnarounds, with the Great Danes bolting to leads of 13-0 and 21-2, only to have The Mount (16-17) bounce back with a 21-2 run of its own to pull even.

Peter Hooley had 20 points and Gary Johnson 13 for Albany, winless in its three previous NCAA trips.

The Mountaineers hit 12 of 37 shots behind the arc to time and again come back from deficits.

Wednesday, CSN, AM-1000 tin admitted. “That guy that can score or draw the double team to get the ball to other guys that are open and have open shots. I think that’s big for teams, but the way we play, I mean, we can use that, but we don’t need it.

“We play together, we play as a team, and I think we’ve been doing a great job trying to play as a team. We don’t have any so-called superstars, but we have a team of guys that work hard and play hard.”

It has worked at times. The Bulls beat the back-to-back defending champion Miami Heat last week, handcuffing LeBron James when it mattered most.

Then, on Thursday, they held James Harden to just eight points – about 16 below his average – in a victory over the Houston Rockets.

So there is a track record of success – in the regular season.

The problem comes in the postseason in a best-of-seven series against a player such as James, Paul George or Dwyane

Wade.

“I wouldn’t say we’re at a disadvantage built like we are because we have defenses that we can throw at teams – we can adjust to those things,” Augustin said. “Whether it’s maybe trap the star player or do different things to take them out of their rhythm, I think we’re a team that can go into the playoffs and make teams have to do things differently.”

But will that be enough?

There’s no doubt Noah has had a breakout year as one of the best all-around centers in the league, but the days when centers ruled the NBA ended years ago.

As TNT analyst Steve Kerr said last year, this is the “Era of LeBron,” where stars such as James set the standard over playing good team basketball.

“I think that’s certainly the trend, but there are always exceptions to the rule,” Bulls guard Mike Dunleavy said. “On one hand, when you have guys like Westbrook and Durant, yeah, it’s great to have them.

On the other hand, you know where they’re going [down the stretch].

“We’ve made enough plays over the course of the season in crunch time where we know we can win games. We certainly think that we can get it done.”

BEARS NOTES

Bears cut receiver Bennett DT Melton signs with Cowboys; Idonije returns to D-line

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com Facing a $2.45 million cap hit for a player who had 243 receiving yards last season, the Bears decided to cut Earl Bennett. Jay Cutler’s college teammate and the Bears’ No. 3 receiver had spent six years with the club.

According to ESPN Chicago, Bennett declined a pay cut before being released – he took one before last Earl season.

Bennett In 2013, Bennett appeared in 15 games with three starts.

He caught 32 passes for 243 yards and four touchdowns, including game-sealing scores in wins over the Steelers and Browns.

In the 15 games he played in 2013, Bennett was on the field for 53.8 percent of the snaps.

The Bears’ most commonly used offensive formation had Bennett on the field, and that personnel grouping averaged 5.94 yards a play with Cutler.

What’s next at the No. 3 receiver spot? Marquess Wilson.

As a rookie, Wilson had two catches in 10 games last season. He will get the first crack.

He went to Florida to train with Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery, and the team has high hopes for the youngster.

Newcomer Domenik Hixon, who has plenty of receiver ex-

perience, also will factor into the mix. Look for the Bears to address the position with another veteran or in the draft.

Cowboys land Melton: Henry Melton is going back home.

The former Bears defensive tackle agreed to terms with the Cowboys on Tuesday night.

“Thank you Chicago for the best 5 years of my life! … I can’t wait to begin the next chapter of my life… With a star on my helmet,” Melton tweeted.

Melton had visited the Cowboys, along with the Vikings, Seahawks and Rams, since the start of free agency. He started the first three games of the 2013 season before tearing an ACL, but made $8.45 million for playing on the franchise tag.

Melton went to Grapevine High School in Texas and played his college ball for Texas. In four seasons with the Bears he had 89 tackles, 15.5 sacks and three forced fumbles.

In December, Melton was arrested after an altercation at a bar near Fort Worth, Texas.

The bar owner is suing Melton.

Izzy returns: After one season with the division rival Lions, defensive lineman Israel Idonije is coming back to the Bears, the team announced.

In Detroit last season, Idonije appeared in 15 games with zero starts and had seven tackles and 0.5 sacks. That was coming off a 48-tackle, 7.5-sack season with the Bears in 2012, when Idonije played in 16 games with 11 starts. He

signed a one-year deal.

Idonije brings a good veteran presence to the locker room and also has the versatility that general manager Phil Emery is seeking in next year’s defense. Idonije would slide inside on passing downs when with the Bears, and the player who did that last year – Corey Wootton – is a free agent.

The Bears now have Idonije, Trevor Scott and Austen Lane as the veterans who will be competing for roster spots behind newcomers Lamarr Houston and Willie Young at defensive end. David Bass, Cheta Ozougwu and Cornelius Washington are the returning players on the edge.

More special teams help: The Bears added two more safeties to the roster Tuesday, agreeing to terms on one-year deals with Craig Steltz and Danny McCray.

Steltz re-signs for his seventh season with the Bears.

In his six-year career, he has 122 tackles. Last season, Steltz played in all 16 games and started against the Vikings, where he led the team with 12 tackles. As a special-teams contributor, Steltz tied for the team lead with eight tackles last season.

McCray, 26, spent the first four seasons of his career with the Cowboys. He has played in 60 games and has 119 tackles and three passes defensed. Another special-teamer, McCray played for current Bears special-teams coach Joe DeCamillis in Dallas from 2010 to ’12.

Big Chief Triangle is back.

Former Bulls and Lakers coach Phil Jackson, the man with 11 championship rings as a coach and one more as a player for the Knicks (two, if you count the 1969-70 title season when Jackson was out with a back injury), has returned from the wilderness to become the president of the Knicks.

You could say Jackson is doing it for the love of the game, but the five-year deal for a rumored $12 million a year is a nice inducement.

Even for a Zen dude.

Don’t forget Jackson doesn’t mind the spotlight. And there’s only so much of that shining on his Montana lake and chattering Harley-Davidson. New York? The Big Apple? This isn’t Denver or Oklahoma City, Phil folks. Beatnik Phil, Madison Jackson Square Garden Phil, is back.

Why, it might be no time at all before he makes a fan of has little Spike Lee sitting on his lap, like some kind of orange and blue puppet.

Yet there is also something nearly mystical about Jackson’s return to his sacred hoops.

The media in New York nearly went gaga with expectation after Knicks owner James Dolan made the announcement, for example.

What other nonplayer in basketball could have evoked such a reaction done that?

Jackson will turn 69 before next season, and he’s pretty well beaten up from his sports career, starting with that back ailment so many years ago. He can’t sit or stand for long periods of time, so traveling with the Knicks and being a constant hands-on, locker-room presence seems out of the question. So, too, we must assume, is coaching.

This is a big transition for Phil – from career game architect – the tall guy with the pained expression and loud whistle on the bench – to the front office. But such it is.

I remember back in the 1990s, when Jackson would lock the locker-room door after Bulls games, so meddling general manager Jerry Krause couldn’t get in.

Whomever Phil names as the Knicks’ coach next season (current coach Mike Woodson certainly won’t be back) will be a man who will let Jackson go in and out as he pleases. But the irony is, despite the huge freedom Dolan said he is giving Jackson, there might not be a whole lot Phil can do quickly to improve a soul-free, sub.500 team with so many expensive contracts and no first-round draft pick in June.

Plus, what can Jackson do to convince superscorer Carmelo Anthony to stay with the Knicks? Will Anthony think that even a trickle-down vestige of Tex Winter’s triangle offense benefits him? Or will he run, screaming, to a team that will let him gun at will? We don’t know.

Jackson might find that Krause, as nosy,

VIEWS Rick Telander humorless and annoying as he was to have around, did stuff with free agency and the draft that had a magic all to itself.

Remember, Krause is the secretive man who had a poster in his Berto Center office that read, “Hear All, See All, Say Nothing.” The quote was from Admiral Wilhelm Canaris, the former head of the Nazi Abwehr, spy agency during World War II. Jackson and Krause haven’t been friends for a long time. They only shook hands at stroke-impaired Winter’s Hall of Fame induction in 2011, Krause said, “for Tex.” But it wasn’t startling to hear Jackson at his news conference Tuesday offer an olive branch and some warm words to Krause. It might have dawned on Jackson that he soon will be judged less by those 11 coaching rings of yore and more by the impatient New Yorkers’ attitude of, “What have you done for us lately, pal?”

“His attitude toward doing this job that I’m charged with doing is the map for me going forward,” Jackson said of Krause. “He was very thorough, very comfortable and very committed to finding out information about players that would help create teams that could win.”

Well, yes, Krause did do that. Having a fellow named Michael Jordan helped. And Jackson was aided mightily in Los Angeles by having Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal.

The knock on Jackson always has been, “Bet you can’t do it without superstars!” In a way, Jackson is stepping into a job much like the one Theo Epstein stepped into with the Cubs. What you did elsewhere doesn’t matter one iota in the new place.

Indeed, Jackson’s honeymoon will vanish quickly in Manhattan. Why, when he was last in the Apple there were no Brooklyn Nets to worry about. Imagine getting beaten by a team above the funky Atlantic Avenue stop.

There are no “accidental championships” in the NBA, Jackson said when describing how the Knicks will have a system, a plan. One even wonders whether this means fiancée Jeanie Buss of the Lakers and Phil are now frenemies – or worse. And what of Mavericks owner Mark Cuban saying his “bucket boy” is back?

Not much reverence there.

And here in Chicago, I guess we can say the Jordan-Jackson-Dennis Rodman era is nailed shut. None of those folks lives here.

Maybe Krause is our new hero. A Hall of Famer-to-be. It’s for sure we don’t care one toot about anything that goes on in New York.

Zucchini Crab Cakes with Lime Aioli

SPRINGFORWARD A spring fresh take on the classic crab cake

By ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press

Hearty, yet fresh soup fit for those cool spring nights

By ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press

T

he warm days and cool nights of spring can make for challenging dinners.

During the days, we want to be outside enjoying the sun, but the evenings call for something warm and comforting.

Trouble is, warm and comforting dinners require time at the stove.

Our solution? A quick and easy soup that is jammed with fresh vegetables and comes together in about 30 minutes. We combine seasonally perfect asparagus with the sweet taste of frozen corn and a heap of fresh thyme. The result is light, yet fresh and filling. If you want to bulk it up a bit, shrimp or diced chicken would be a great addition.

See SPRING SOUP, page D2

o help get us in the mood for spring, we’ve given a seasonal makeover to the classic crab cake.

We started by adding the fresh flavor of shredded zucchini. It melts into the bolder flavors of the other ingredients, yet still keeps the crab cakes tasting light. For a binder, we skipped the usual bread and instead used mashed potato, which gives the finished crab cakes a light and fresh texture. For a topping, we created a simple lime aioli, which lends a vibrant tang.

This recipe comes together quickly, but also is do-ahead easy. The patties can be prepped up to a day ahead, then refrigerated until ready to fry.

Zucchini Crab Cakes with Lime Aioli Start to finish: 1 hour (30 minutes active) Servings: 10 1 medium potato 1 medium zucchini 16 ounces lump crab meat, drained 1/2 cup breadcrumbs 1 whole egg, lightly beaten, plus 2 egg yolks Kosher salt and ground black pepper 2 cloves garlic, finely minced 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard Zest and juice of 1 lime 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar or white balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil All-purpose flour, for dredging 2 tablespoons vegetable oil Poke the potato all over with a fork.

Microwave on high until completely tender, 6 to 10 minutes depending on your microwave. Allow the potato to cool until easily handled, then peel and mash.

While the potato cooks and cools, prepare the other ingredients. Shred the zucchini on the largest holes of a box grater. Place the shreds in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze over the sink to remove any excess liquid.

In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, crab, breadcrumbs, whole egg, and cooled mashed potato along with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir gently just until the mixture is combined.

Using 1/2 cup of the mixture at a time, form 10 patties, arranging them on a plate.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, in small bowl, whisk together the garlic, 2 egg yolks, mustard, lime juice and zest, and vinegar. In a slow stream, drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously. Season with salt and pepper.

After the cakes have chilled, dredge them thoroughly in flour.

In a large skillet over medium-high, heat the oil. Add the cakes, working in batches if necessary, and cook for 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve with the aioli.

Simple Roast Chicken with Fresh Herb Sauce AP photo

A healthy roast bird to help welcome spring

By SARA MOULTON

EVERYDAY DINNERS Sara Moulton

Associated Press Our spring feasts – often centered around Passover and Easter – typically call for a center-of-the-plate star like brisket or lamb. Of course they’re delicious, but both can seriously ramp up the fat and calories in a meal that tends to put the groan into groaning board even before the main course is served.

So how about roasted chicken instead? Wait a minute, you say. If you eat the bird with its skin on, you might as well be eating lamb. And yet there’s no way to cook a chicken properly without the skin.

Looks like a problem, but here’s a solution: roast the chicken with the skin on, then remove the skin after the chicken is cooked. And, if you roast the chicken my no-fuss way, you’ll find yourself with ample time to devote to the rest of the meal.

I learned the best way to roast a chicken during my restaurant days.

Every evening just before service began, the whole staff would sit down for “family meal.” If chicken was on the menu, we’d simply throw

several 3 1/2-pounders into the oven – which was always cranked to 500F – and blast away.

Given that we were cooking only for ourselves, there was nothing fancy about how we prepped those birds. Everything we’d learned in cooking school about the need to truss, turn and baste a roasting chicken turned out to be unnecessary. All we did was sprinkle them with salt and pepper, rub them with a little oil, and roast them at high heat.

Forty minutes later they were done. We let them rest for 15 minutes, then carved them and moistened the pieces with the juices that had pooled on the platter. It was almost too simple – and it certainly was not traditional – but the result was delicious.

There is, however, one serious caveat when it comes to cooking a chicken at a temperature this

high: your oven must be clean. A dirty oven blazing away at 450F (which is what I call for here) will smoke up the whole house. Also, be sure to place the bird in a heavy roasting pan with sides so the chicken juices don’t splatter over the sides and burn on the bottom of the oven.

Finally, the resting time is key.

After you pull the bird out of the oven, its juices need time to redistribute. If you don’t let it rest, but carve it right away, all the juices will come streaming out and you’ll end up with dry meat. Happily, some of those juices pool on the platter during the resting period anyway, and they add a ton of flavor to the sauce.

And these chickens – minus their skin – cry out for a sauce. For that, I took my inspiration from the Italians and their bistecca alla Fiorentina, which is grilled steak finished with extra-virgin olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. I added some fresh herbs and those juices from the bottom of the platter and – Glory be! – The Husband just about forgot to complain about the lack of skin. It

was a small but welcome miracle in a season of miracles.

Simple Roast Chicken with Fresh Herb Sauce Start to finish: 1 hour 30 minutes (20 minutes active) Servings: 8 Two 3 1/2-pound chickens, trimmed of excess fat Olive oil cooking spray Salt and ground black pepper 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano Heat the oven to 450 F. Spray the chickens all over with the cooking spray, then season them with salt and pepper. In a large roasting pan, place the chickens, breast side up, side by side.

Roast, uncovered, until a meat thermometer inserted into the leg-thigh joint registers 165 F, about 55 minutes.

While the chickens are roasting, in a small bowl whisk the lemon juice with salt and pepper to taste, whisking until the salt

• SPRING SOUP From page D1 Spring Corn Soup with Asparagus

AP Food Editor The trouble with sweet-and-sour chicken is that the flavor is mostly sweet – too sweet, at that – and weirdly acidic. It never seems to deliver on the satisfying balance of gently sweet and teasingly sour that I hope for.

But a recipe in a British food magazine recently inspired me to create a better version.

The recipe in BBC GoodFood magazine was for caramel chicken wings, though I wasn’t much interested in the wings themselves. It was the caramel-based sauce that intrigued me. Spiked with ginger, lime juice and fish sauce, it seemed just right for what I wanted.

The result is deliciously sweet, but equally tangy and savory. Be warned: This isn’t the gloopy red sweet-and-sour with pineapple and cherries you know from the takeout box. It is much better.

is dissolved. Whisk in the olive oil, thyme, and oregano, then set aside.

When the chickens are done, transfer them to a large platter and cover them loosely with foil. Let them rest for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, pour any drippings from the roasting pan into a fat separator. Add the chicken juices from the fat separator to the herb mixture and discard the fat.

After the chicken has rested, remove and discard the skin and cut up the chicken.

Whisk the juices from the platter into the herb mixture. Divide the chicken between serving plates and spoon some of the herb mixture over each portion of chicken.

Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 6 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/4 cup chopped shallots 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 large sweet onion, diced 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced 3 celery stalks, diced 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth 1 bunch asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces 3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme 16 ounces frozen baby corn Salt and ground black pepper AP photo

1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch strips Scallions, thinly sliced, to garnish Fresh cilantro, chopped, to garnish In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and water. Bring to a simmer and cook without stirring for about 10 minutes, or until the sugar has browned and thickened to caramel. Stir in the fish sauce, being careful of sputtering, then the soy sauce, ginger and lime juice. Return to a simmer.

Meanwhile, in a large saute pan over medium, heat the oil. Add the chicken and cook, stirring often, for 20

minutes, or until cooked through. When the chicken has cooked, use a slotted spoon or tongs to transfer the chicken (but none of the liquid in the pan) into the caramel sauce. Toss to coat the chicken with the sauce, then transfer it to a serving platter. Top with scallions and cilantro.

Kale gets a Southern exposure

By JOE YONAN The Washington Post If collard greens are the new kale (a debatable assertion, as I wrote recently), then why can’t kale be the new collards?

That’s what struck me when I saw a recipe for a Southern-style pairing of the trendier greens with blackeyed peas and grits.

The idea, in Robin Robertson’s new “More Quick-Fix Vegan,” makes perfect sense: Any hearty leaves can find a home in this set of flavors, which are good any time of year, but especially appealing as we continue the long wait for spring.

The truth is, the trio of greens, beans and grains is as natural in the kitchen as the Three Sisters (corn, squash and beans) are in the garden.

And I so often have beans and grains already cooked and in my freezer or fridge that all it takes to put together a well-rounded meal is to quickly stir-fry those greens.

For Robertson’s recipe, I made the whole shebang from scratch. It seemed particularly suited to mixing and matching: As well as they

work in this combination, those grits could be swapped out for barley or farro or couscous; the black-eyed peas could be replaced by limas or chickpeas or pintos; and the kale could morph into collards — or mustard greens or Swiss chard. The key is to think about just how many varieties of grains, beans and greens there are in the world, to bring them into your kitchen and to start experimenting.

Kale and Black-Eyed Peas With Smoky Grits 4 servings Adapted from “More Quick-Fix Vegan,” by Robin Robertson (Andrews McMeel, 2014).

1/2 cup homemade or no-salt-added vegetable broth 1 1/2 cups cooked or canned black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed Combine the water, salt and 1 teaspoon of the smoked paprika in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Gradually whisk in the grits; reduce the heat to medium-low so the mixture is gently bubbling. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the grits have the consistency of creamy oatmeal, about 20 minutes. Add the pepper, taste, and add salt if needed. Cover and keep warm.

Pour the oil into a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the onion and garlic; cover and cook until soft, 5 minutes.

Add the kale, broth, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika and a little salt plus pepper to taste. Cook just until the kale wilts, then stir in the black-eyed peas; cook until the kale is tender and the peas are hot, 10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed.

Divide the grits among shallow bowls, then top with the kale mixture.

3 cups water 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more as needed 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked Spanish paprika (pimenton) 1 cup regular grits (do not use quick-cooking or instant) 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1 medium onion, chopped 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped Leaves from 8 ounces kale, thinly sliced

Trust in relationship involves Family and friends can help more than knowing passwords addicts change their behavior Dear Abby: I have been in a relationship for two years.

As soon as we made it official, we gave each other our phone passwords to avoid keeping things from each other.

One night, I had a sudden urge to go through his phone. I had never done it before, and when I looked at his Facebook messages, I saw he had been exchanging inappropriate pictures with someone. I was shocked and angry, and it almost ended our relationship.

He deleted and blocked this person, and I forgave him. We don’t talk about it anymore.

I haven’t noticed any other red flags, but now, when he’s asleep or goes somewhere and leaves his phone at home, just looking at it upsets me. I’ll put a pillow or a blanket over it so I can “forget” it’s there. I don’t know if I should take another peek to make sure he’s staying on the straight and narrow, or if ignorance is bliss. What do you think?

– Unsure Guy In Texas Dear Unsure Guy: Ignorance isn’t bliss. Being able to trust the man you’re with is, and if it turns out you can’t, it’s better that you know sooner rather than later. It appears you still have some unresolved trust

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips issues with him that need to be discussed.

Between you and me, if he was trying to conceal something, he probably wouldn’t be leaving his phone exposed and vulnerable to checking.

Dear Abby: I’m 39 and have been married for 12 years.

My wife is 35. When we first got together, my wife did not want to have kids right away. She said maybe after I graduated from college, or perhaps we could adopt. It took more time because of some surgeries, but I have graduated now and I want to start a family.

She now says she thought I was kidding when we were talking about it all those years ago, and I knew she never wanted kids.

I am at a loss. I love this woman, but I do want children, or to adopt a baby if that’s not possible – but she says she’s unwilling to do either. What am I to do? – Wants To Be A Dad In

woman who appears to have deceived you. How sad.

Dear Abby: I was engaged to my ex-girlfriend for three years. We broke up more than a year ago – her choice.

We reconciled briefly, but are now broken up for good, and she’s dating someone else.

My question is about the engagement ring. It didn’t bother me that she kept it until recently. Should I ask for the ring back or let it go?

If you think I should ask for it, should I do it face-to-face or through some other form of messaging? – Moving On

In Kentucky Dear Moving On: When your ex-girlfriend broke the engagement, she should have returned the engagement ring. That she didn’t indicates she is either ignorant regarding the rules of etiquette, or she plans to keep it regardless of what the custom is. (If it’s the latter, you’re fortunate to be rid of her.)

I do not recommend asking for the ring via text or a phone call out of the blue. Your chances might be better if you ask in person. I wish you luck.

Dear Dr. K: My brother is addicted to alcohol. How can I help him overcome his addiction?

Dear Reader: It is so hard to watch a loved one suffer.

And addiction surely causes suffering. In some ways, the suffering from addiction is worse than from other illnesses.

One reason is family members and friends often worry they might have contributed to the addiction.

They worry that maybe problems in their relationship with the loved one drove that person to drink. Hard as it may be to accept, you aren’t responsible for your brother’s addiction.

Another cause of suffering is many people think addiction is just a personal weakness, a lack of willpower. In fact, it is a disease.

Chemicals in your brother’s brain are creating an enormous desire to seek the pleasure drinking brings him.

But don’t misunderstand.

When I say addiction is a disease, I’m not saying the disease is incurable. I’m not saying your brother is trapped and powerless to affect his condition, as he might be if he had a cancer spreading throughout his body. With addiction, a person can overcome the enormous desire they feel.

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff It’s just really, really hard, and most people need help.

Behavior change rarely occurs quickly. Most people journey through several distinct phases before attaining their goal. Understanding these phases may help you to know when to step back or step in. I’ve put an illustration of these stages on my website, www.askdoctork. com.

• Precontemplation. There is no thought of changing because the individual does not recognize a problem.

• Contemplation. The person recognizes a problem but is ambivalent about change.

• Preparation. The person has accepted the idea of making a behavior change and begins looking for ways to accomplish it.

• Action. The person takes a definitive step. For example, entering a support group for addiction.

• Maintenance. Temptation to return to old habits is inherent in any type of behavior change. With addiction, that’s especially true.

Brain chemicals continue to cause desire for a long time, maybe forever. Recognizing

lapses can occur and developing strategies ahead of time to get back on track is crucial to quitting successfully.

• Relapse and recycle.

The person resumes former behaviors. Although discouraging, don’t view this step as a failure. Relapse can help the person recognize triggers and plan stronger coping strategies.

As someone with a loved one who struggles with addiction, here are some things you can do to help: • Speak up. Express your concerns in a caring way.

• Don’t make excuses.

Don’t make it easier for your brother by lying to protect him from the consequences of his addiction.

• Be safe. Don’t put yourself in dangerous situations.

• Step back. Try to remain neutral. Don’t argue, lecture, accuse or threaten.

• Be positive. Addiction is treatable. Learn about treatment options and discuss them with your brother.

• Take action. Consider staging a family meeting or intervention.

Lighter take on a classic eggplant Parmesan Associated Presst I’ve always been a big fan of eggplant Parmesan. There are a bunch of ways to make this classic Italian dish, but I’m partial to what you might call the full-fat version: thick slices of breaded eggplant that are sauteed, then baked until creamy, and finally topped with tomato sauce and melted cheese.

A vegetarian delight, eggplant Parmesan nonetheless can be very heavy. You gobble it down with gusto for dinner, but discover it still sitting in your gut like a brick the next day. So I wanted to concoct a lighter recipe.

Eggplant tends to soak up oil like a sponge, so the first thing I did here was to take a cue from my mom. She used to make an easy but inventive side dish with eggplant, cutting each one into 1/2–inch slices, brushing every slice with her vinaigrette, then baking them all until they were tender and golden. For simplicity, I sprayed each slice with a modest amount of oil before baking them.

Unfortunately, this clever strategy created a new problem. The eggplant in my favorite version is breaded.

Here it isn’t. I was happy to lose the oil, but I didn’t want to lose the bread, particularly in a saucy dish like this. So I literally turned the recipe inside out, placing the bread – in the form of croutons – inside the rolled-up slices of eggplant.

The croutons do get tender during baking, but they also absorb and marry the other flavors in the filling: Parme-

san cheese, mozzarella cheese and roasted red pepper. Full disclosure: I’m well aware roasted red peppers are not typical of traditional eggplant Parmesans. I added them because they contribute bulk and good nutrition. And because I love the tang they lend the dish.

Even though this uses less than the usual amount of cheese, my crack team of testers didn’t miss it. My secret?

The speedy marinara sauce.

Loaded with garlic, a bit of oil and a pinch of red pepper flakes, this sauce radiates so much robust flavor that folks forget the missing cheese.

INSIDE-OUT EGGPLANT PARMESAN ROLLS Start to finish: 1 hour Servings: 6 2 slices large rustic (not bagged sliced) white or whole-wheat bread, crusts discarded and bread cut into 1/4-inch cubes (about 1 3/4 cups) 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Kosher salt 2 pounds large eggplant Olive oil cooking spray 1/2 cup finely chopped roasted red pepper 2 ounces fresh mozzarella, cut into 1/4-inch cubes 1/2 ounce grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese 1 teaspoon minced garlic 2 1/2 cups purchased marinara sauce or speedy marinara sauce (recipe below) Fresh basil, to garnish Heat the oven to 400 F and adjust the oven racks so there is one in the top third and one in the bottom third of the oven.

salt. On a large rimmed baking sheet, spread the cubes in an even layer and bake on the oven’s lower shelf until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes.

Transfer them back to the bowl.

While the cubes are baking, prepare the eggplant. Leaving the skin on, slice it top-to-bottom into 1/4-inch-thick slices, discarding the end pieces that are mostly skin.

Spray the baking sheet you used for the bread as well as a second large baking sheet with the olive oil spray. Sprinkle the eggplant slices very lightly with salt on both sides and arrange them in a single layer on the baking sheets. Spray them lightly with additional olive oil spray.

Bake just until barely golden, 16 to 20 minutes, switching the sheet pan positions in the oven after 8 minutes.

Wal-Mart plans to expand its video game trade-in program to its stores, offering store credit for thousands of video games.

Wal-Mart makes play for used video games Retailer wants its share of $2 billion market

By KEN SWEET and MAE ANDERSON The Associated Press NEW YORK – Wal-Mart plans to start buying used video games from shoppers at stores in a move that goes after the bread-and-butter business of GameStop.

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. plans to expand its current online trade-in program by allowing customers to trade in their used video games at 3,100 Wal-Mart stores.

Starting next week, customers can trade in video games for credit that can be used in Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club stores. The value for each tradein will vary by the title, console and age of the game, ranging from only a few dollars for older games to $35 and more for newer ones.

The world’s largest retailer is taking aim at a very lucrative area of the $2 billion used video-game market.

It’s a business that’s dominated by GameStop Corp., the world’s biggest dedicated seller of video games with the largest and most-established video game trade-in program.

Retailers from Amazon to Best Buy also offer used video trade-in programs. But Wal-Mart’s new program is the biggest threat to GameStop, which for the last three years has drawn roughly half of its profits from buying and selling used video

games.

Wal-Mart made a point Tuesday of saying that the credit it will offer shoppers in return for video games can be used on anything from groceries to a new bike, rather than only other video games. The latter was an apparent reference to GameStop’s program.

“When we disrupt markets and compete, our customer wins,” said Duncan Mac Naughton, chief merchandising and marketing officer of its U.S. stores. “They’ll save money on video games and have the flexibility to spend it however they want.”

GameStop did not respond to a query for comment.

Investors appeared to think the move spells trouble for GameStop, sending its shares down 3.7 percent to $38.30, while Wal-Mart shares rose 14 cents to $74.82.

Analysts, however, suggest the new program isn’t necessarily a death knell for GameStop. After all, other retailers have tried to take business in the used game market with “modest” success, said Baird Equity Research analyst Colin Sebastian, but GameStop has loyalty among video game customers and a broad inventory of new and used video games.

“History suggests the competition is unlikely to capture meaningful

share,” he wrote in a client note.

And Sterne Agee analyst Arvind Bhatia pointed out that GameStop has advantages that Wal-Mart does not: a large refurbishment facility in Dallas, pricing algorithms and experience developed over a decade.

“It makes sense and feels natural that various retailers that offer new video games would try to offer tradeins as well,” Bhatia said. “However, as many retailers have discovered in the past, buying product from merchants in bulk is quite different than buying one disc at a time from customers.”

The trade-in business is appealing for a retailer: When a consumer buys a new video game for $60, only a small portion of its sale price goes to the company. But when a consumer turns around and sells that game back to the company, the company can keep all the profits for itself.

But it’s also a complex business that requires systems to track and manage used product inventory and pricing and the ability to refurbish products and restock stores appropriately to balance supply and demand. In fact, Wal-Mart tried a video trade-in program from 2009 to 2010 using kiosks in stores, but that was not a success. The company said it has found a better system that will make the process more efficient.

Home construction falls WASHINGTON – U.S. home construction fell for a third month in February, but in a hopeful sign, applications for building permits rose to their highest level in four months.

Builders started work on 907,000 homes at a seasonally adjusted annual rate in February, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. That was down a slight 0.2 percent from January, when construction had fallen 11.2 percent.

The Associated Press DETROIT – General Motors CEO Mary Barra apologized Tuesday for the deaths related to the company’s delayed recall of 1.6 million small cars, and named a new global safety director to help prevent such issues in the future.

In her first meeting with reporters since last month’s recall, Barra stopped short of saying the company would compensate families of those killed in crashes. But she said GM would do what’s right for its customers after it completes an internal investigation.

“I am very sorry for the loss of life that occurred, and we will take every step to make sure this never happens again,” she said.

She also said no one has been fired or disciplined because of the recall.

GM has been subject to intense criticism for not acting sooner to repair faulty ignition switches in certain models of Chevrolet Cobalts, Saturn Ions and four other compact cars. GM has admitted it knew about the problem at least 11 years ago.

During an hour-long meeting with reporters, Barra and Mark Reuss, GM’s product development chief, appeared composed. But they often refused to answer questions, saying they wanted to wait for the results of an internal investigation

Barra said GM is looking through its database for more crash deaths that could be tied to the ignition switch problem. That number is likely to rise above 12 as the company and safety regulators review accident reports and consumer complaints.

Barra said it’s likely she will testify before congressional committees investigating the company’s handling of the problem.

She also said that to her knowledge, the company has not provided any information to the

Justice Department, which is investigating whether any laws were broken in the way GM handled the recall.

Also Tuesday, GM named a veteran company engineer, Jeff Boyer, as its new safety chief, placing a single person in charge of recalls and other safety issues.

“If there are any obstacles in his way, Jeff has the authority to clear them,” Barra said in a statement. “If he needs any additional resources, he will get them.”

On Feb. 13, GM announced the recall of more than 780,000 Cobalts and Pontiac G5s (model years 2005-2007). Two weeks later it added 842,000 Ion compacts (2003-2007), and Chevrolet HHR SUVs and Pontiac Solstice and Saturn Sky sports cars (2006-2007). All of the recalled cars have the same ignition switches.

The company said the ignition switches can wear from heavy, dangling keys. If the key chains are bumped or people drive on rough surfaces, the switches suddenly can change from the “run” position to “accessory” or “off.” That cuts off power-assisted steering and brakes and could cause drivers to lose control. Also, the air bags might not inflate in a crash and protect the driver and passengers.

The company is urging people not to put anything on their key rings until the switches are replaced.

8IN BRIEF

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

Understanding complicated hedge-fund styles

Siemens will build locomotives for U.S. rail

Hedge funds are a diverse class of investments that use unique investment strategies to seek greater-thanaverage total return with lower levels of risk.

Hedge funds might use many investment tactics not ordinarily available to the managers of regulated mutual funds, including unlimited short-selling, margin trading to leverage price movements, and the unfettered use of derivatives as direct investment vehicles.

There are more than 8,000 hedge funds; they come in all shapes and sizes. The multitude of recognized hedge-fund investment styles and variants might appear confusing to the uninitiated. However, you might find it much simpler to think of funds as falling into one of four major groupings: event driven, market neutral, multinational and niche.

Event-driven funds follow investment strategies designed to profit from a known or forecasted event, such as distressed securities and merger and value opportunities.

Market neutral funds generally attempt to neutralize investors’ exposure to significant changes in

CHICAGO – Siemens will build 32 diesel-electric locomotives for high-speed rail projects in the Midwest and on the West Coast.

The company announced Tuesday it had won a $225 million contract and will deliver the first of the cleanerburning, faster locomotives by 2016.

Illinois led the procurement for the next-generation equipment for it and four other states: California, Washington, Michigan and Missouri.

Illinois has been overhauling its cross-state Amtrak route from Chicago to St. Louis to boost speeds to 110-mph.

The Charger locomotives will be built at Siemens’ rail manufacturing plan in Sacramento, Calif. The lighter weight locomotives can operate at speeds up to 125 mph.

The multistate deal includes options for 225 additional locomotives.

The routes are part of President Barack Obama’s effort to expand high-speed rail.

investment. For example, investing in five hedge funds with $1 million minimums would require $5 million.

Investing in a fund of hedge funds that invests in those same underlying funds may require only $1 million.

Factors to consider: When considering the differences among these styles you also should keep in mind other common terms relating to hedge-fund investing.

Individual risks include bankruptcy, the effects of competition and changes in technology, among other things.

Market risks indicate the possibility that an entire broad category of assets will gain or lose value simultaneously.

The value of a hedge fund’s assets sometimes can be difficult to ascertain. As some hedge funds invest in highly illiquid securities, they might be hard to value.

Hedge funds do have higher fees than many other investments. Managers typically charge 1-2 percent in fees, plus a performance fee of up to 20 percent of its profits.

Many hedge funds restrict the opportunities to redeem shares and

INVESTING Timothy Dooley portfolio value caused by market risk.

These funds divide their assets among investments with complementary risk characteristics so that any force that drives some portfolio assets in one direction will drive other portfolio assets in the opposite direction.

Multinational funds invest in nonU.S. stocks and bonds using strategies such as fundamentals and technical indicators, global macroeconomic or financial market trends, and topdown and bottom-up considerations.

Niche funds follow narrowly defined styles, including sectors, shortselling and market timing. They also can invest in listed futures and options to benefit from expected trends in commodity prices, interest rates or currency exchange markets.

Fund of hedge funds: Through a fund of hedge funds, investors can gain access to a number of hedge funds with a relatively smaller

often impose a lock-up period of one year or more after your initial investment.

Hedge funds often engage in speculative investment practices that might increase the risk of investment loss. Hedge funds also can be highly illiquid, are not required to provide periodic pricing or valuation information to investors, might involve complex tax structures and delays in distributing important tax information and are not subject to the same regulatory requirements as mutual funds.

If you are contemplating the use of a hedge fund in your portfolio, consider that hedge funds are complex investments with limited liquidity compared with stocks, bonds or mutual funds.

Work with your financial professional to determine whether they might be right for you. Happy planning.

Poll: People still seek meaty news on media buffet

By CONNIE CASS

IRS: Worker took home personal info on workers

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – An Internal Revenue Service employee took home personal information on about 20,000 IRS workers, former workers and contractors, putting the data at risk for public release, the agency said Tuesday.

The employee took home a computer thumb drive containing names, Social Security numbers and addresses of the workers, and plugged the drive into an unsecure home network, IRS Commissioner John Koskinen said in an email to employees.

“At this point, we have no direct evidence to indicate this personal information has been used for identity theft or other inappropriate uses,” the IRS said in a statement.

Koskinen said the incident did not involve any taxpayer information.

WASHINGTON – A new study finds Americans of all ages are charting their own paths across a media landscape that no longer relies on front pages and evening newscasts to dictate what’s worth knowing.

They still pay heed to serious news even as they seek out the lighter stuff, according to the Media Insight Project. The conclusions burst the myth of the media “bubble” – the notion that no one pays attention to anything beyond a limited sphere of interest, such as celebrities or college hoops or Facebook.

“This idea that somehow we’re all going down narrow paths of interest and that many people are just sort of amusing themselves to death and not interested in the news and the world around them?

That is not the case,” said Tom Rosenstiel, executive director of the American Press Institute, which teamed with the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research on the project.

People today are nibbling from a news buffet spread across 24-hour television, websites, radio, newspapers and magazines, and social networks.

Three-fourths of Americans see or hear news daily, including 6 in 10 adults under age 30, the study found. Nearly everyone – about 9 in 10 people – said they enjoy keeping up with the news. And more than 6 in 10 say that wherever they find the news, they prefer it to come directly from a news organization.

The study found relatively few differences by age, political leanings or wealth when it comes to the topics people care about. Traffic and weather are nearly universal interests. Majorities express interest in natural disasters, local news, politics, the economy,

Americans of all ages still pay heed to serious news even as they seek out the lighter stuff, choosing their own way across a media landscape that no longer relies on front pages and evening newscasts to dictate what’s worth knowing, according to a new study from the Media Insight Project. crime and foreign coverage.

With so many sources and technologies, 60 percent of Americans say it’s easier to keep up than it was just five years ago.

But at the same time, Jane Hall, an associate professor of journalism at American University, said no one is setting the national news agenda the way The New York Times and network evening news once did.

“I do lament those times in which something could become so important that we all watched,” Hall said. “But that doesn’t mean we aren’t all engaged now.”

If you’re under 30, the future of news is in your hands, literally.

Three out of four young adults who carry cellphones use them to check the news. Most owners of tablet computers also use them to get updates; young people are the ones most likely to have tablets.

But the young think of news differently than previous generations did, said Rachel Davis Mersey, an associate professor at Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. Their broader definition includes anything happening right now, whether it’s sports or entertainment or politics.

“We don’t see young people thinking of it as a civic obligation to keep up with news,” Mersey said.

“We see young people including news as part of a very complex, very diverse, very large media diet that includes a diversity of sources, a diversity of platforms and really goes 24/7.”

The Media Insight Project study found 20-somethings likelier to follow up when they hear something big is happening.

Americans get that first word in an assortment of ways. Traditional news operations still dominate, but word of mouth, email and text messages, Facebook and Twitter, and electronic news alerts also come into play.

Most people say they have more confidence in a story when they get it directly from a news-gathering operation. But their media habit doesn’t include paying for it – only about a fourth have paid subscriptions.

Nine out of 10 watched some type of TV news in the previous week. Newspapers, including online editions, and radio news each reached more than half the country.

Marcus Tullius Cicero, a Roman statesman and orator who died in 43 B.C., said, “Orators are most vehement when their cause is weak.”

I often feel that way about playwrights who include lots of shouting -- they could not think of anything worthwhile to write.

This week we are looking at bidding with weak hands -- for example, the gorgeous two-count held by North.

After partner opens one notrump, he must not pass, but must convert the contract to two spades, here via a transfer bid. His hand might be useless in no-trump, but will be worth three or four trump tricks in spades.

After West leads the heart king, how should South plan the play?

Note that North’s having to use a transfer, rather than a natural, drop-dead two-spade response, has the disadvantage of giving the opponents two chances to enter the auction; but it does allow the strong hand to become the declarer.

If East-West do enter the auction and reach three

diamonds, a club lead is fatal.

The defenders can take one heart, three diamonds, one club and a club ruff by North.

South has six losers: three spades, two hearts and one club. However, he can eliminate one loser by winning with the heart ace and cashing his three diamond tricks, starting with dummy’s queen (the honor from the shorter side irst). On the third diamond, declarer discards a heart from the board. Then, with his loser count down to ive, he leads a trump and keeps playing trumps every time he is back on lead.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - This will be a year of growth and creativity.

You will find innovative ways to display your talents.

Although there are some who will try to influence you to take a different path, believing in yourself and your abilities will be the key element to your success.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- You’ll face discord at home if you aren’t mindful of others. Now is not the time to make changes to your living space. An old debt will be settled in your favor.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may be feeling emotionally down. If you take part in a cause you believe in, you will make new friends and infuse some life into your current situation.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Stay in touch with people who have something to offer you. Refuse to become involved in questionable activities. Someone may be trying to take advantage of your trusting nature.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Don’t be lured into sharing your personal information. You will be sorry if you reveal too much to someone unreliable. Surround yourself with positive people who value your worth.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Don’t let worry and self-doubt get to you. Connecting with friends or becoming involved with a public-spirited organization will provide you with some positive energy. Forward thinking will pay off.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Consider making a lifestyle change. Base your actions on the way you feel and the goals you have set. Trying to impress others with your new behavior will backfire.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may be drawn into a troublesome situation. Pay attention to your gut feelings, and put an end to a questionable partnership.

Your reputation could be at stake.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Dealing with your peers or family members will be problematic today. Stay away from trivial disagreements. Your time will be better spent participating in worthwhile pursuits.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- New opportunities will allow you to use your talents and skills more diversely. Make decisions based on your needs, not on what someone else wants.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- A personal situation needs to be resolved before you can move ahead. Do a detailed analysis of your financial status and consider what options will be most lucrative.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Be aware of the opportunities that surround you. An unusual offer has the potential to turn into a profitable endeavor. Keep an open mind and share your thoughts.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your money matters need a critical evaluation. Get together with your financial adviser and determine how you can increase vings. It may be nec ary to make changes t
