Two advocacy groups say they have more than enough signatures to put two more proposed amendments on the ballot to decrease the powers of state lawmakers through term limits and redistricting reform.

NATIONAL INFANT IMMUNIZATION WEEK

By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – An influential group of Illinois transportation advocates is warning lawmakers of a drop-off in spending on roads and bridges and pointing out a murky federal funding picture as it tries to bolster its case for an aggressive tax plan it says would provide sound financing.

The Transportation for Illinois Coalition plans to deliver a letter to state lawmakers Tuesday warning them of looming bankruptcy in the federal endowment for road building and the expiration this year of Gov. Pat Quinn’s $31 billion statewide construction program called Illinois Jobs Now. “State funding for transportation was inadequate for too long before Illinois Jobs Now and the dramatic decline now that the program is expiring will lead to backsliding in the condition of our roads and bridges,” reads the letter, obtained in advance by The Associated Press.

But just as Congress struggles with how to shore up the Highway Trust Fund, scheduled to run out of money this

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com Dr. Mary Collins has a hard and fast rule for the parents and guardians of her patients: immunize. Immunize, immunize, immunize.

“If they refuse to do it, they are asked to find another pediatrician,” said Collins, of Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington. “That has been our cornerstone for a long time.”

The rule at Collins’s practice doesn’t necessarily apply to all Good Shepherd pediatricians, she said, but it does represent a feeling ingrained in the medical community. While a small but growing number of people are opting out of vaccinations, citing philosophical or religious reasons and driven in many cases by obscure studies circulated online, most doctors remain

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is looking to spread a message of the benefits of immunization this week during National Infant Immunization Week.

Making sure children get vaccinated is even more important during times that have harbored a “global, mobile society,” Collins said. Children going to day care or meeting in play groups can increase germ exposure.

“Babies are getting exposed to larger groups of children at younger and younger ages,” Collins said.

Such exposure can put the very young – and very vulnerable – at risk for serious complications or death, even if the immune systems of the older,

China’s lending bubble a global threat

By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER

Office workers walk past China Dream propaganda boards near a construction site Oct. 8 in Beijing, China.

Economists fear a lending bubble in China could threaten the global economy.

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Just as the global economy has all but recovered from debt-fueled crises in the United States and Europe, economists have a new worry: China. They see a lending bubble there that threatens global growth unless Beijing defuses it.

That’s the view that emerges from an Associated Press survey this month of 30 economists. Still, the economists remain optimistic that Beijing’s high-stakes drive to reform its economy – the world’s second-largest – will bolster Chinese banks, ease the lending bubble and benefit U.S. exporters in the long run.

“They’ve really got to change the way they do business,” said William Cheney, chief economist at John Hancock Asset Management. “But they have a good track record of doing just that. I’m an optimist about their ability to make this transition.”

The source of concern is a surge in lending by Chinese banks. The lending was initially encouraged

by the government during the 2008 global financial crisis to fuel growth.

Big state-owned banks financed construction of homes, railroads and office towers. But much of the lending was directed by local officials for pet projects rather than to meet business needs.

On Monday, the International Monetary Fund issued a warning about

China’s private debt. It released a report citing “rising vulnerabilities” in China’s financial system, including lending outside traditional banks.

Lending by that “shadow” banking system now equals one-quarter of China’s economy, the report said.

The IMF also pointed to recent defaults in credit card and other debt sold to investors by banks and heavy

debts owed by local governments.

If it continues, “this could spark adverse financial market reaction both in China and globally,” the IMF said.

The bubble has caused land prices in China to double in five years, according to an estimate by Nomura, a Japanese bank. Outstanding credit surged from 130 percent of the economy in 2008 to 200 percent in 2013, according to Capital Economics, a forecasting firm.

When debt has built up that fast in the past – as in the United States during the housing bubble – financial crises have typically followed.

“That should be setting alarm bells off,” said Mark Williams, chief Asia economist at Capital Economics.

When debt finances excessive building, eventually too few people or companies are willing to buy all the houses, apartments and offices.

That can send prices sinking and trigger loan defaults by developers and property owners. Banks typically then curtail lending, thereby slowing growth.

Colleges left with veterans program costs The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHAMPAIGN – A state program that guarantees college tuition for Illinois veterans has provided less and less money in recent years, which leaves public universities and community colleges to pick up the tab. The bill is expected to top $32 million this year.

The Illinois Veteran Grant started in 1967. It’s considered an entitlement, a status that means if the General Assembly doesn’t appropriate money for it, the schools have to cover the cost.

According to The (Champaign) News-Gazette, the leg-

“We could do so much more if we were getting the [state appropriation]. Half a million dollars is huge for us.”

Tim Wendt, director of financial aid and veterans services at Parkland College in Champaign islature in 2013 and 2014 provided no money. The state has wrestled with budget deficits the past few years.

Major universities bare much of the burden. The University of Illinois, for instance, last year had a $3.1 million bill to cover its Veteran Grant obligations.

But schools with smaller

budgets are hit hard, too.

“Schools want to serve the vets. We’re glad the program is there and we’re glad they choose to come to our school,” said Janet Ingargiola, director of financial aid with Danville Area Community College. But “it’s a squeeze for community colleges who are already tight on money.”

The school awarded $91,034 under the Veteran Grant program in 2011-12, $94,100 in 2012-2013, and $128,000 for the current school year, Ingargiola said.

Parkland College in Champaign has about 350 veterans who are students, and many use the Veteran Grant, said Tim Wendt, director of financial aid and veterans services.

He said the school will spend $600,000 this year on Veterans Grant funding.

“We could do so much more if we were getting the [state appropriation]. Half a million dollars is huge for us,” Wendt said.

Many rush for cover as twister rips through Ark. The ASSOCIATED PRESS VILONIA, Ark. – The sky turned black as the funnel cloud closed in, and Maggie Caro rushed with her husband and two children to a community shelter at a Vilonia school, where they were among the last to get inside the fortified gym before the doors were shut.

“They were screaming, ‘Run! Run! It’s coming!’” Caro recalled.

And then all hell broke loose.

The half-mile-wide tornado carved an 80-mile path of destruction through the Little Rock suburbs Sunday evening, killing at least 15 people, flattening rows of homes, shredding cars along a highway and demolishing a brand-new school before it even had a chance to open.

Officials said the death toll could have been worse if residents hadn’t piled into underground storm shelters and for-

8STATE BRIEFS Quinn says he’ll limit himself to two terms CHICAGO – Gov. Pat Quinn said term limits are good policy for Illinois and he’s going to limit himself to two terms.

The Chicago Democrat told reporters Monday after a City Club of Chicago speech that he won’t seek a third term if he wins in November against Republican Bruce Rauner.

Quinn has long advocated for term limits, including pushing a ballot initiative in the 1990s.

However, when asked in recent months he wouldn’t commit to two terms for himself.

Last week Senate Republican Leader Christine Radogno introduced legislation to amend the Illinois Constitution to limit statewide officials to two terms of four years. The plan needs a three-fifths vote in each legislative chamber to get on the November ballot.

Standridge and a friend had gathered up seven children they were watching and sped through the streets just minutes before the twister hit.

“When they shut the doors, we knew it was on us,” Standridge said. “Everybody hunkered down. There were a lot of people doing prayer circles,

NEW YORK – Republican U.S. Rep. Michael Grimm, a former Marine and FBI agent who’s been the target of a campaign finance investigation, was instead charged on Monday with evading taxes by concealing more than $1 million in sales and wages while running a small Manhattan restaurant – a case he called a political witch hunt meant to drive him out of office.

Rep. Michael Grimm sur- Grimm rendered to FBI R-N.Y. agents early Monday following a two-year investigation that initially focused on alleged attempts to bypass contribution limits.

He pleaded not guilty through his lawyer in federal court in Brooklyn to mail, wire and tax fraud charges and was released on $400,000 bond secured by his Staten Island home.

The lawmaker, using a World War II memorial across the street from the courthouse as a backdrop, later accused prosecutors of leaking “all kinds of innuendos and accu-

sations to support a political witch hunt” intended to “assassinate my character.” He vowed to return to work in Congress while fighting the charges.

“I know I’m a moral man, a man of integrity,” he added.

“And I also know I have a lot more service and leadership to provide this country, and that’s exactly what I intend to do.”

Grimm, though, stepped down from the House Financial Services Committee. He told Republican House Speaker John Boehner he should be removed from the panel but said he plans to return once his legal issues are resolved.

House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi had sent a letter to Boehner saying Grimm should be removed, and a Boehner spokesman said the speaker believes the decision to step down was appropriate.

U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch said investigators uncovered the restaurant fraud as they conducted the campaign finance probe. She denied the prosecution was politically motivated and suggested more charges were possible.

“We follow the evidence and see where it goes. ... The investigation is broader and ongoing,” she said.

“You had people breaking down because they were reliving three years ago,” Kimber Standridge said of the scene inside the community shelter, which she said was packed with perhaps more than 100 people.

Caro and Standridge said the shelter was so solid they barely felt or heard the tornado.

It was among a rash of twisters and violent storms across the Midwest and South that killed 17 people in all on Sunday.

On Monday, tornadoes flattened homes and businesses and flipped trucks over on highways, killing two people in Alabama and one in Mississippi.

Most of the dead in Arkansas were killed in their homes in and around Vilonia, population 3,800. Firefighters on Monday searched for anyone trapped amid the piles of splintered wood and belongings strewn across yards. Hospitals took in more than 100 patients.

Plan would raise gas tax

Russia hit with new sanctions

• FUNDING Continued from page A1

The ASSOCIATED PRESS summer, the state Legislature faces the unpleasant task of finding new revenue for its portion of infrastructure building and maintenance.

The transportation coalition has proposed creating a state fund of $1.8 billion annually to provide steady spending for roads, bridges and more.

But it would mean a 4 centsa-gallon increase on gasoline and a 7-cent hike on diesel – taxes that haven’t increased for road purposes since 1990.

The plan also would direct sales tax on fuel paid at the pump back to transportation funding, increase vehicle registration fees and broaden the sales tax so that they applied to services such as auto repairs and car washes.

The proposal lands on lawmakers’ desks at the very time – six months before an election – they also have been asked

by Quinn to make a 5-yearold temporary income tax increase, which is set to roll back next year, permanent.

The coalition points out that in Quinn’s five-year transportation improvement program, spending drops 58 percent, from $3.7 billion this year to $1.6 billion in 2019. And that assumes Capitol Hill solves its funding problems and state funding remains steady. The letter notes that an increase in the federal gas tax has been ruled out by both Democrats and Republicans.

“Either they’re going to have to address the shortfall or they’re just going to tell the states, ‘It’s time for you to start picking up more of the load for yourself,’ ” said John Lowder, a lobbyist and coalition member. “... We would be in no position to deal with that.”

And with funding at current levels, the letter argues, roads in “acceptable” condition will fall from 85 percent to 61 percent by 2020.

“You’re going to have longer travel times, you’re going to have increased damage to vehicles ... you’re not going to get as much fuel efficiency out of your car just because of the roughness of the road,” said Kevin Burke, executive vice president of the Illinois Asphalt Paving Association.

Two-month-old Rebeca Viderizue of McHenry receives a rotavirus vaccination from medical assistant Kerry Makoben on Wednesday in McHenry.

‘There’s a lot of fear about autism’ • VACCINES Continued from page A1 infected children they contact are strong enough to handle the sickness, said Dr. Laura Bianconi, a pediatrician at Centegra Hospital – McHenry.

Bianconi has seen that situation play out. She saw a child who was too young for the pertussis vaccine become infected by an older sibling who wasn’t vaccinated. The younger child died of the disease, better known as “whooping cough.” The older child got sick, but recovered.

Still, Bianconi advocates for the importance of a parents’ choice in vaccinating their children.

“However, I think it’s also important that they’re given accurate information in this,” she said. “The problem with most people is that they don’t have accurate information.”

Opposition to vaccinations grew in part from a 1998 study in the medical journal “The Lancet,” which published an article linking autism to the combination vaccine that addresses measles, mumps and rubella. The article was fully retracted by the journal in 2010 after several reports through the years about its authenticity and the credibility of its lead author.

But information continues to circulate linking vaccines with autism, Bianconi said.

“The biggest reason is there’s a lot of fear about au-

“What we are seeing is a resurgence in the community – based on the lack of vaccination – with different diseases that are preventable.”

Dr. Mary Collins with Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington tism,” she said. “Because we don’t know 100 percent what causes it, people have come up with a bunch of theories about it. I don’t know why vaccines in particular get picked on other than every kid gets them.”

Both Bianconi and Collins pointed to studies that have debunked the link.

But the voices of those advocating for immunizations are sometimes drowned out by those of vaccine-opposers with a larger platform – such as Jenny McCarthy, the model turned TV personality recently hired on the ABC talk show, “The View.” McCarthy, who has an autistic son, has said the disorder can be attributed to his vaccinations.

Such public views have led to a discussion about what should qualify parents and guardians for an exemption from vaccine requirements.

Currently, every state offers a religious exemption, and 17 states offer philosophical exemptions. Illinois does not offer a philosophical exemption.

People taking advantage of exemptions is causing a heightened health risk, according to a recent study by

the CDC. So far in 2014, 129 people have been reported to have measles – the highest number in the first four months of the year since 1996, the CDC reported.

“What we are seeing is a resurgence in the community – based on the lack of vaccination – with different diseases that are preventable,” Collins said. She added that pertussis is the preventable disease most commonly making an appearance in the area.

Because of the risks not only to individual children but to the greater community, Collins would like to see immunizations mandated for all children, without exception.

“A religious exemption has never really made sense to me,” she said.

While Bianconi doesn’t share that stance, she said she looks forward to a day when more parents take a greater appreciation for the effectiveness immunizations have shown.

“There’s a lot more fear around the vaccines,” she said. “If there’s anything I want people to know, it’s that you should be more afraid of the disease than of the vaccine.”

Amendment would augment victims’ rights language in Constitution • AMENDMENTS Continued from page A1 lawmakers from enacting voter-suppression laws, as they allege are being imposed in other states before and in the wake of a U.S. Supreme Court decision last year that struck down portions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Critics call the amendment a solution to a nonexistent problem in Illinois and a political ploy to boost Democratic voter turnout in what is expected to be a tight gubernatorial race between Democratic incumbent Pat Quinn and Republican challenger Bruce Rauner.

The bill, House Joint Resolution Constitutional Amendment 52, passed 105-9 in the House and unanimously in the Senate.

• VICTIM RIGHTS: This proposed amendment would augment victims’ rights language in the Constitution that voters approved by amendment in 1992.

If voters approve, courts would be required to hear and rule on crime victims’ requests for their rights to be enforced.

A victim’s safety would have to be taken into account in the setting of bail, granting parole and determining conditions of release. The amendment also clarifies that crime victims have the right to be notified of proceedings of a criminal’s conviction, sentencing, imprisonment and release. Current constitutional language gives victims the right to access the information, but does not impose a notification requirement on government.

The amendment tweaks

Section 8.1 of the Illinois Bill of Rights, which addresses the rights of victims of crime.

Illinois is the only state that does not allow a crime victim to go to a higher court when his or her rights are denied, according to the Illinois Attorney General’s Office.

The bill, HJRCA 1, passed unanimously in the Senate and with only two opposing votes in the House.

• INDEPENDENT MAPS: A proposed amendment by an advocacy group would take away state lawmakers’ ability to draw their district maps after each decennial U.S. Census.

The proposed 1,500-word amendment being pushed by the group Yes For Independent Maps puts the job of redrawing legislative boundaries in the hands of an 11-member commission appointed by a three-member panel, itself selected from random applications submitted to the state auditor general. The commission’s meetings under the amendment are open to the public.

The amendment’s rules forbid the drawing of boundaries that split units of local government, ethnic or linguistic groups, or discriminate against political party. Public hearings for the maps must be held in every state judicial district, and a majority vote to approve must include balance between both parties and independent commission members.

Article 4, Section 3 of the Illinois Constitution governs the redistricting process. The amendment applies only to the boundaries of the Illinois House and Senate, which would still have the power to

draw the boundaries of the state’s Congressional districts.

Yes For Independent Maps plans to deliver more than 500,000 signatures Thursday to the Illinois State Board of Elections.

• TERM LIMITS: Another initiative being pushed by a Rauner-supported group would impose strict term limits on the General Assembly and make other changes.

The proposal by the group Term Limits and Reform would limit House and Senate members to a total of eight years. It also restructures the General Assembly to consist of 41 Senate districts with three House districts apiece for a total of 123. The amendment imposes an effective date of 2023, which would start the term-limit clock ticking in 2015. It also increases the number of votes needed to override a gubernatorial veto from three-fifths to two-thirds.

If allowed on the ballot, the amendment would change three sections of Article 4.

The amendment does not impose term limits on the governorship and the five other statewide offices because citizen petitions can only offer amendments to the section of the Constitution dealing with the General Assembly. An amendment proposed last week

by Republicans would impose the eight-year limit on the executive offices, but the bill is unlikely to advance given the Democratic supermajorities in both the House and Senate.

Term Limits and Reform’s website claims it has 450,000 signatures, and is looking for more to ensure the proposed amendment can survive a chal-

lenge, The group has not publicly revealed a timetable for submitting its petition.

• PROGRESSIVE TAX: A vote is expected in the Senate this week on an amendment to replace Illinois’ flat income tax in Article 9, Section 3 with a progressive one based on income.

The bill, Senate Joint Resolution Constitutional Amendment 40, is expected to clear the Senate, but faces much tougher prospects in the House, where Democratic Speaker Michael Madigan said last week he was “significantly short” of the 71 votes needed. Democrats hold exactly 71 seats in the House, and local Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, has said he will under no circumstance vote in favor of it.

Democratic lawmakers in 2011 raised the flat tax on individuals from 3 to 5 percent – a 67 percent increase – promising it as a “temporary” measure to address the state’s serious financial woes. It is set to significantly expire on Jan. 1, 2015, but Quinn and other Democratic leaders are pushing to make it permanent.

While supporters of a progressive tax claim that the vast majority of people will pay less under several proposed tax structures, critics point out that the claim is based on the increased 5 percent rate, not the 3.75 percent it is scheduled to decrease to next year. They also point out that the promise could be broken just as easily as the promise that the 67 percent tax hike will be temporary, and that lawmakers with a progressive tax could increase rates to whatever they want at any time.

WASHINGTON – The United States and its European allies hit more than two dozen Russian government officials, executives and companies with new sanctions Monday as punishment for their country’s actions in Ukraine, yet the penalties stopped short of targeting Russia’s broader economy and it remained unclear if they would work. In Moscow, there was relief that the sanctions were not as far-ranging as feared.

The measures, including asset freezes and visa bans, affect people close to the Kremlin, and Western leaders hope those hurt by the sanctions will pressure Russian President Vladimir Putin to limit his reach in Ukraine and de-escalate the crisis there. However, the Russian leader himself was not among those targeted, and Obama administration officials acknowledged there was no expectation that Putin would quickly change course.

Still, officials in Washington and Brussels said the

sanctions, coupled with an initial set imposed following Russia’s annexation of the Crimean peninsula last month, would significantly boost the cost to Moscow of ignoring an agreement it signed earlier this month to take concrete steps to ease tensions in Ukraine.

“The goal here is not to go after Mr. Putin personally,” President Barack Obama told reporters in the Philippines, where he was wrapping up a four-nation trip to Asia. “The goal is to change his calculus with respect to how the current actions that he’s engaging in could have an adverse impact on the Russian economy over the long haul.”

Obama said Russia still could resolve the Ukraine crisis diplomatically. But he sounded far from confident about the immediate prospects for the new sanctions packages.

“We don’t yet know whether it’s going to work,” he said.

In addition to the sanctions on the seven individuals and 17 companies, there also are new arms and technology export restrictions on Russia.

Obama defends his foreign policy record The ASSOCIATED PRESS MANILA, Philippines – President Barack Obama vigorously defended his foreign policy record Monday, arguing that his cautious approach to global problems has avoided the type of missteps that contributed to a “disastrous” decade of war for the United States.

Obama’s expansive comments came at the end of a weeklong Asia trip that exposed growing White House frustration with critics who cast the president as weak and ineffectual on the world stage. The president and his advisers get particularly irked by those who seize on Obama’s decision to pull back from a military strike in Syria and link it with virtually every other foreign policy challenge, from Rus-

sia’s threatening moves in Ukraine to China’s increasing assertiveness in Asia’s territorial disputes.

“Why is it that everybody is so eager to use military force after we’ve just gone through a decade of war at enormous costs to our troops and to our budget?” Obama said during a news conference in the Philippines.

Summing up his foreign policy philosophy, Obama said it was one that “avoids errors.”

White House advisers argue in part that Obama’s approach puts him on the side of a conflict-weary American public, some of whom voted for him in the 2008 election because of his early opposition to the Iraq war. Yet the president’s foreign policy record of late has provided plenty of fodder for his critics.

Respecting the power of water Large bodies of water can be dangerous.

We were reminded of that earlier this month, when a 26-year-old man lost his life while kayaking on the Fox River in Geneva.

The incident is a tragic one, and by no means is it the only water-related death to occur on the Fox River, which cuts through McHenry County.

Although many residents want to enjoy the river for fishing, boating and other For the record recreational activities, that enjoyWe remind everyone that ment must come caution must be taken when with a respect setting out on the water. for the power of the water and the environment around it. Seemingly too often, a leisurely day spent relaxing and having fun on the Fox – or any large body of water – can turn dangerous.

In the incident April 19, Dinesh SudhakarUckoo drowned after the two-person kayak he was riding in went over the dam near State Street in Geneva. Fortunately, the other passenger in the kayak was rescued and has reportedly been recovering.

As the weather continues to get warmer this year, we remind everyone that caution must be taken when setting out on the water.

The following safety tips are provided by the Illinois Paddling Council via its website: • Don’t paddle alone – join a club – paddle with people who know the river. Let someone know where you will be and when you plan to return.

• Paddle water appropriate to your skills.

• Do not go into [a] fast current unless you are sure you can safely paddle through.

• Learn to control your boat – be able to stop the boat at any time and know how to land on shore.

• Learn to recognize river hazards – strainers (downed trees or branches reaching into the water); dams with hydraulic reversals; bridge piers; barbed wires across rivers.

Additional water safety tips are offered on the American Red Cross website: • Even if you do not plan on swimming, be cautious around natural bodies of water, including ocean shoreline, rivers and lakes.

Cold temperatures, currents and underwater hazards can make a fall into these bodies of water dangerous.

• Never leave a young child unattended near water and do not trust a child’s life to another child; teach children to always ask permission to go near water.

• Have young children or inexperienced swimmers wear U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets around water, but do not rely on life jackets alone.

• Swim in designated areas supervised by lifeguards.

• Always swim with a buddy; do not allow anyone to swim alone.

In the wake of this month’s tragedy, we encourage families to talk about the importance of water safety. Such steps can help save lives.

The latest IRS scandal A new Treasury Inspector General’s report shows that the Internal Revenue Service awarded millions of dollars in bonuses to IRS employees who were tax delinquents or cited in the past year for such misconduct as drug use, violent threats, unemployment benefit fraud and misuse of government credit cards.

The scandalous investigation, which was limited to the period between Oct. 1, 2010, and Dec. 31, 2012, found: • More than 1,100 IRS employees who were delinquent on their taxes shared in the spoils of more than $1 million in cash bonuses and 10,000 hours in extra paid vacations.

• Another 2,800 IRS employees went to the trough for more than $2.8 million in bonuses despite having been disciplined for various forms of misconduct that, in our opinion, should have been severely punished, not rewarded.

“You have to do something really bad before the IRS will take conduct into account, bad enough to be suspended for 14 days or more.

Even then, conduct is only deemed relevant to awards of permanent pay increases, not for bonuses or extra vacation time,” according to Gail Sullivan, writing in The Washington Post.

The latest revelations from the Inspector General for Tax Administration followed the earlier, more widely known scandal of IRS employees allegedly targeting conservative groups, especially those with Tea Party or Patriot in their name, when applying for taxexempt nonprofit status.

Does the arrogant hypocrisy of the IRS bureaucracy respect no bounds?

We can only hope voters and taxpayers catch on before this self-appointed ruling elite strikes again.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Working class struggle To the Editor: Who’s to say what happened at the Haymarket Rally?

The Gilded Ages’ most reprehensible tycoon, Jay Gould, once said, “I can hire one-half the working class to kill the other half.”

The struggle the working class always has faced has been a split amongst themselves and an absolute lockstep opposition from the job creators. What does a fair trial for the 1880s mean? Was the evidence found in the home of an alleged perpetrator planted? Did agents provocateur detonate the explosives knowing all hell would break loose and the blame would be placed on the workers rallying for the eight-hour workday?

We don’t know for sure whether those hung for the resulting deaths at the rally were framed or so fed up with the likes of Jay Gould and his apologists that they did, in fact, push the detonator.

We do know that it took more than 40 years before the Fair Labor Standard Act established the eighthour day and 40-hour workweek.

Hospitals support tax rate To the Editor: Illinois has overwhelming financial challenges.

As we try to diagnose the problems, the immediate issue for the next month is what we are willing to do to save Illinois from financial collapse.

Therefore, on behalf of the entire Illinois hospital community, we pledge full support for maintaining our current tax rates to keep Illinois from falling into the financial abyss. This issue is not just about hospitals. It’s also about roads, schools and public safety. Without the continuation of current tax revenues, these areas will be subject to severe cuts in funding.

How to sound off We welcome original letters on public issues.

Letters must include the author’s full name, home address and day and evening telephone numbers.

We limit letters to 250 words and one published letter every 30 days. All letters are subject to

We all have witnessed first-hand the needed improvements in these areas. We have much work to do to improve the lives of all Illinoisans, which calls for stable, predictable state funding.

Deciding to support a continuation of current tax rates is difficult. But taking the easy way out today will only make tomorrow’s problems worse. We need to keep our promises to Illinoisans to keep our state safe, well-educated and healthy.

There is no silver bullet. It takes tough decisions and sacrifice.

That’s why the Illinois hospital community supports taking this action.

Now is the time for political courage and statesmanship – making tough decisions for tough times.

We ask Illinois state lawmakers to vote “yes” to enact a fiscal 2015 state budget that maintains current tax rates.

Our future depends on it.

Bundy’s awful views should not be news To paraphrase Sean Hannity, we’re getting awfully far away from the tortoise.

You know that it is a slow week for news when the big story is that a man who thinks he should be allowed to let his cattle graze harmoniously for free on protected federal lands might have some racist opinions.

What?

Why do we care about his thoughts on race? Why, for that matter, were we listening to him in the first place?

But Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, the man with the aforementioned cattle, is big news.

Hannity, interviewing him last week, noted, “I guess this goes to the heart of it here because what we’ve always been talking about is the government fighting over land that they don’t need for a hospital or a road or a school, and the land is going to be sitting there anyway, and all the cows are doing is eating and maybe going to the bathroom on it. They said originally this was about the desert tortoise. How did we get to this point where the government sends hundreds of people in there? There seems to be a total lack of proportionality in this.”

Yes, the land was just sitting there. That, as Jon Stewart suggested, is why Hannity was such a robust and vigorous supporter of the Occupy movement.

Besides, what’s a herd of cows to a tortoise? What’s any of us to a tortoise? If Hannity were a tortoise, he would welcome the presence of cows around him.

To say this has not been handled spectacularly well by

VIEWS Alexandra Petri the Bureau of Land Management is a gross misunderstatement.

Even when the person in question is a rancher who doesn’t believe the federal government has any rights to federal lands, it is easy to feel a pang of sympathy for him when armed agents are headed in to seize his cattle in order to pay his grazing fees and also possibly tangentially to protect a tortoise somehow. If there is one thing that real Americans dislike, it is federal overreach, with armed agents, to protect some kind of slow endangered critter. If that tortoise and that sage grouse want to survive so badly, they should evolve faster, or do whatever their preferred alternative to evolution is.

I’m not sure why his comments on slavery are news, though.

Why are we surprised that someone who has been taking his lines directly from the War Of Northern Aggression Talking Points manual has retrograde views about slavery? Why is this the point when everyone decides he is beyond the pale, when he pondered aloud to a New York Times reporter whether “the negro” would not have been “better off as slaves”?

Why not before, when he was announcing to Hannity that Harry Reid was “calling for a revolution or a civil war here? I mean, I don’t understand that”

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

and lamenting, “Harry, why are you acting like this? Why, Harry, are you calling for a civil war?

That’s not what we the people want. We just wanted you to disarm your army and get out of our state and start acting like citizens of the United States.

That’s all we want, Harry,” with his son Ammon chiming in that, “Well, Sean, I just want to make sure that we stand that this is a state sovereignty issue. The states have the right to control and to govern this land, and the federal government doesn’t want to give that up. And that’s what this is about, and that’s where we stand. This is state land, and, therefore, the federal government has no right to fine or to say they can rent this land to anybody within the land.”

That was fine. Reasonable.

Normal. But when he told the New York Times that “I want to tell you one more thing I know about the negro” and then went on to note that “And I’ve often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didn’t get no more freedom. They got less freedom,” that was when we had to send in the metaphorical troops. (Yes, that was what slavery was about, “having a family life.” There is no need to go into all the myriad reasons why this is a ludicrous thing to say. It is, in every way.)

Meanwhile, the people who helped bring his struggle to prominence are still trying to dig him out of the hole, suggesting that it was “a lack of media

training” that brought him to this pass.

Dana Loesch observed, “First, to take the quote at face value it’s odd and sounds offensive.

You’re talking about government overreach and you go into this story? Secondly, I hope no one is surprised that an old man rancher isn’t media trained to express himself perfectly. He seems to be decrying what big government has done to the black family – which big government has negatively affected not just the black family, but all families regardless of ethnicity – so perhaps he included that in his remarks against big government? I’m just trying to figure out how he even got to the point of discussing it and yes, it’s justified to have a healthy suspicion of the New York Times.”

Yes, that was the problem. A lack of media training. With media training, he might have said what he meant less clearly.

But this could have been avoided. A few weeks ago, if you’d asked the average news consumer whether Cliven Bundy should be considered a voice and representative of the conservative movement, that person would have looked at you as though you were some sort of nut.

Now they’re not so sure. He’s been given a platform, called a hero, made into a representative figure and his retrograde views are national news.

They shouldn’t be.

JOHNSBURG ROAD DETOUR COULD START JOHNSBURG – Rain pushed back the establishment of a detour around Johnsburg Road construction.

If weather permits, eastbound Johnsburg Road and southbound Chapel Hill Road traffic will be detoured between Spring Grove Road and Fairview Avenue starting Tuesday.

Like the detour set up last year, the construction zone will be limited to one direction traffic.

The project includes the installation of a roundabout at the intersection of Johnsburg Road, St. Johns Avenue and Chapel Hill Road. Sidewalks, decorative roadway lighting, park benches and trash bins also will be installed on both sides of Johnsburg Road.

The work is a continuation of last summer’s widening of Johnsburg Road from Route 31 to just west of the St. Johns Avenue and Chapel Hill Road intersection to three lanes with one lane in each direction and a center lane for turning.

STD cases on the rise in area Health professionals notice increase in McHenry County, around state

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com The Illinois Department of Public Health found that reported cases of sexually transmitted diseases have increased statewide during the past several years, a trend health professionals also are noticing in McHenry County.

In Illinois, cases of chla-

mydia increased 14 percent and cases of syphilis increased 82 percent from 2008 to 2012.

Gonorrhea cases increased by 15 percent between 2010 and 2012.

There were 434 reported chlamydia cases last year in McHenry County, up 80 percent from the 241 cases reported in 2010, according to the McHenry County Department

of Health. Gonorrhea cases were up 43 percent as doctors reported 23 cases last year from just 16 in 2010. And after no reported syphilis cases in 2010, McHenry County recorded three in 2013.

The up-tick in reported sexually transmitted disease cases has health professionals encouraging residents to get tested and to take actions to

CRYSTAL LAKE – One person has died and another is in the hospital with life-threatening injuries after a head-on crash Monday evening.

A four-door Toyota traveling south on Pyott Road from Rakow Road crossed the lane and struck a northbound fourdoor Honda about 5:45 p.m., according to a news release from the Crystal Lake Police Department.

A third vehicle – a Chevrolet Tahoe headed north – collided with the Honda after the initial collision, the release said.

The driver of the Honda was pronounced dead at the scene.

The driver of the Toyota was extricated from the vehicle by rescue personnel and taken to Centegra Hospital – McHenry with life-threatening injuries.

Flight for Life services were

not available due to weather systems in the area, Crystal Lake Police spokesman Dan Dziewior said.

“Certainly if that was a viable option, it would have been utilized,” he said.

The occupants of the Tahoe, a driver and passenger, were taken to Advocate Sherman Hospital in Elgin with injuries not believed to be life-threatening, the release said.

Police were not providing names of those involved Monday night.

Pyott Road was closed from its intersection with Rakow Road to south of the Lake in the Hills Airport, a stretch near the border between Crystal Lake and Lake in the Hills.

The road had reopened as of about 9:45 p.m., a dispatcher said.

The Crystal Lake Police Department and the McHenry County Coroner’s Office are investigating the incident. No charges have been filed at this time, the release said.

foot building was formerly Peters Micro Matic Products.

Get Green plans to keep the structure of the building the same, but the front facade is set to receive an upgrade. Brickwork will be added, and the garage doors will be painted green. An existing shed would be taken down.

“It’s a massive improvement,” Village President John Schmitt said.

The business will have five employees on-site.

Owner Danny Meyers said he hopes to open in August. He would not disclose how much he is investing into the property.

Algonquin would be his third satellite location for the company.

“We’ll separate into categories on skids and gaylord [boxes] and it will be shipped out to our other processing plant in Aurora,” Meyers said. “We’re going to

Oak Ridge project slightly over budget

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com CARPENTERSVILLE – The $1.174 million combined bids to make the old District 300 administrative building the new home for its alternative Oak Ridge School are over budget.

But officials from the Carpentersville-based district aren’t yet scrounging the coffers to make up for the higher-than-anticipated costs. The renovation ran $125,164 over budget.

Overall construction costs for the $7 million project, including a new administration building near Jacobs High School, remain slightly under budget.

“In the overall scheme, we are under budget,” board member Joe Stevens said.

“We are not too concerned about it.”

The second, $684,643 bid package members unanimously approved Monday for the Oak Ridge move covers electrical, plumbing, sprinkler, heating and air conditioning work to the old administration building.

The renovation to the district’s old central office, near Carpentersville Middle School, began earlier this month after district board members approved initial construction bids totaling $489,637. Administrators vacated their office space during spring

break in March to have the building ready to serve the roughly 80 Oak Ridge students by the start of school in the fall. The move gives students at the alternative school a permanent location for the first time since Oak Ridge opened in 1998.

Construction, meanwhile, has started on administrators’ new building next to Jacobs High. The board should vote on the final bids for that project May 12.

The $125,164 in overages for the Oak Ridge renovation includes unexpected work to expand water lines underneath Carpentersville Middle School and install new fire sprinklers at the former office space.

LAKEMOOR: INTERSECTION AT CENTER OF PLAN

Lakemoor optimistic about economic growth LAKEMOOR – A more positive outlook on the economy had village of Lakemoor officials change the underlying zoning for several properties near the Route 120 and Route 12 intersection to commercial from residential, the town’s economic development director said.

The Lakemoor Village Board approved the amendments to its comprehensive plan at its meeting Thursday evening, changing roughly 68 acres to regional commercial

from neighborhood residential.

The area originally had an underlying zoning of residential to give developers more options in an economy that was “a little bit shaky,” said Matt Dabrowski, the village’s community and economic development director.

The village had originally hoped to develop the area around the intersection into a subregional commercial center with junior-sized commercial anchors, but now based on discussions with the property owner, village officials are thinking bigger: a region-

“We hope that 2014 is a good year for economic development for the village, but our goal is to get the 12-120 intersection developed. We’re hoping that will be catalyst for other development along 120, both commercial and residential.”

The area does not have public sewer or water lines and would need stormwater and roadway improvements to handle a regional commercial center, Dabrowski said.

The report should be finalized in mid- to late-May, he said.

Public hearings would follow with the Lakemoor Village Board perhaps taking action in July or August.

The village is in communication with the other taxing districts that would be affected by the establishment of a TIF district, Dabrowski said.

Syphilis, on the other hand, can be fatal if not treated correctly.

Those who are sexually active should get tested regularly in order to catch the STD before symptoms worsen, Hering said.

“People have the idea that they would show symptoms early,” he said. “But with chlamydia and gonorrhea, they are typically not going to show symptoms until [the disease] starts causing terrible symptoms.”

In the United States, 20 million new STD infections occur each year, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health. Almost half of

those cases are among young people ages 15 to 24. If untreated, STDs can cause serious health conditions such as infertility among women.

McHenry County Department of Health Communicable Disease Coordinator Mary Lou Ludicky said that while the numbers suggest more people are being infected with STDs, electronic reporting systems and more doctors recognizing the importance of reporting have likely played a role in the rise.

“It’s a combination of both,” she said. “But I can tell you that improved re-

porting has probably had an impact.”

Hering said the best way to prevent an STD is to limit sexual contact and always wear a condom, and those who have sex with multiple sexual partners should get tested regularly for STDs. To find a local testing locations people can visit HIVtest.cdc. gov.

The village also is considering a new pet grooming business. Daniel and Angela Cords of Huntley plan to open Clips ‘N Wiggles in a vacant space at the Square Barn Commons at the south-

west corner of Square Barn and Algonquin roads.

The location is close to multiple subdivisions.

When the business opens, the staff will consist of the Cords family, but would add more groomers as the business grows. There will be room for four stations for groomers, Angela Cords said.

“It’s a booming business,” Angela Cords said.

Daniel Cords will serve as the groomer, and Angela

Cords will serve as the office manager.

Daniel Cords has worked as a groomer for four years.

The couple plans to spend about $50,000 to get the business up and running in the 1,050-square-foot space. They hope to open in June.

Both businesses need special use permits from the village in order to open.

The Village Board is scheduled to vote on whether to issue those permits on May 6.

KANE COUNTY: HEAD-ON COLLISION

Car crash claims life of Kaneville Township man Brown, 68, remembered as ‘kind-hearted’

By AL LAGATTOLLA alagattolla@shawmedia.com BLACKBERRY TOWNSHIP – Only a few days ago, Kaneville Township resident Burton Brown had gone to a fish fry event with friends.

On Monday, one of the friends said she was shocked to hear Brown, 68, had died as a result of a car crash.

Celeste Anderson, a Batavia resident, said she had known Brown for years, and called him a “very kind-hearted person” who had “a very tender heart.”

“When you got a hug from Burt, you knew you got a

hug,” Anderson said.

Brown died Monday morning in a head-on crash that took place about 7:30 a.m. on Keslinger Road, near the intersection of Harley Road, according to a news release from the Kane County Sheriff’s Office. A 2002 Toyota Camry driven by Brown was headed east on Keslinger Road when the car, for an unknown reason, crossed the center line and struck a 2000 Chevrolet van driven by a 35-year-old Elgin man, the release states.

Brown was taken to Delnor Hospital in Geneva, where he was pronounced dead, according to the release. The driver of the van was treated and released at the scene. According to the release, both men were wearing seat belts at the time of the crash.

Anderson said Brown

HOLIDAY HILLS: INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT

Violations in Holiday Hills to be handled by Island Lake

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com HOLIDAY HILLS – Tickets for lacking a village vehicle sticker or playing music too loudly will now be handled by the village of Island Lake.

Both the Holiday Hills and Island Lake village boards unanimously approved the intergovernmental agreement, though Island Lake’s OK is contingent upon attorney sign-off.

Under the agreement, the neighboring village of Island Lake, which already has its own adjudication hearing process, will handle the village of Holiday Hills’ ordinance violations in exchange for $25 a violation.

That means ordinance violators won’t have to go to the McHenry County Courthouse in Woodstock to address the ticket – or pay the often hefty court fees, which can top $160. (Misdemeanor and felony charges for state statute violations will still go to the county.)

Instead, they will likely have to cover the $25 fee plus the fine. The fee structure still needs to be approved by the Holiday Hills Village

“They don’t do a lot of local ordinance [violations]. They make maybe two or three a month, so it’s not a big burden.”

Charles Amrich Island Lake village president

Board, Holiday Hills Village President Dan Drury said.

The village of Holiday Hills also will get to keep 100 percent of the fine instead of only a percentage, Drury said.

The $25 fee should be enough to cover Island Lake’s costs, Island Lake Village President Charles Amrich said.

“They don’t do a lot of local ordinance [violations],” he said. “They make maybe two or three a month, so it’s not a big burden.”

Because Holiday Hills writes so few tickets for ordinance violations, it doesn’t make sense cost-wise for it to set up its own adjudication system, which would require hiring a clerk and administrative judge, Drury said.

8LOCAL BRIEFS Land conservancy offers bird tour WOODSTOCK – Join The Land Conservancy of McHenry County for a guided bird hike at Yonder Prairie Nature Preserve at 8 a.m. Saturday.

Randy Schietzelt, TLC and Illinois Audubon Society board member, will lead participants through the 40-acre natural area that provides habitat for over 80 species of resident and migratory birds such as cranes, herons, warblers, woodpeckers, owls and vireos.

The hike will be about one mile over level terrain. Dress for the weather and wear waterproof boots as there are likely to be wet areas due to recent rains. The nearest address is 1150 Rose Farm Road, Woodstock.

From Woodstock, take Kishwaukee Valley Road west to Rose Farm Road and turn left. Proceed one-quarter mile and park along the side of the road to walk back to the site.

Water and refreshments will be provided.

The hike is free, but registration is required. Contact Schietzelt at buroak@owc.net or call TLC’s office at 815-3379502 to register.

TLC is a local nonprofit organization that works with individuals and communities

to preserve and restore natural land in McHenry County for the benefit of current and future residents.

More information can be found at www.conservemc.org.

Plant sale to benefit horticulture students The Bull Valley Garden Club will host its annual plant sale from 8 a.m. until sellout May 10 on the Old Courthouse lawn on the Woodstock Square.

Club members will sell herbs, heirloom tomato plants, native wildflowers such as bluebells, wild ginger, jack-in-the-pulpit, columbine and celandine poppies, and unusual perennials and grasses from their lawns and woods.

Also, Intrinsic Perennial Gardens will sell professionally grown plants.

Pink pumpkin (Porcelain Doll) plants will be available, with a portion of proceeds from sales to benefit breast cancer research.

There also will be a raffle of themed baskets. Tickets are $1, $5 for six.

Proceeds from the sale will be used for scholarships for horticulture students at McHenry County College.

For information, call 815-354 3842.

Police continue to investigate a fatal crash that took place Monday on Keslinger Road, west of Harley Road. drove to Geneva most days to work out at the Geneva Park District facilities. She said he kept active and enjoyed read-

ing.

She said she was among friends who went out for a fish fry regularly on Friday

nights with Brown.

She said she had known him a long time, since Brown’s wife once had been

a roommate of Anderson’s sister. She said Brown was active with Boy Scouts, and his son, Adam – now a student at Marquette University – earned the rank of Eagle Scout.

Keslinger Road was closed between Harley and Denali roads until about 10:30 a.m.

Monday while the crash was investigated. Lt. Pat Gengler, spokesman for the sheriff’s office, said it didn’t appear weather was a factor, and it was not immediately known whether either driver was traveling at an excessive speed. He also said the road was not particularly congested at the time of the crash.

The Kane County Coroner’s Office issued a news release, stating that an autopsy had been conducted, and that it is awaiting autopsy findings to establish a preliminary cause of death.

Why Haven’t Neuropathy Sufferers Been Told These Facts?

Do you have any of the following symptoms?

• Pins and needles feeling • Numbness in the hands or feet • Tingling or burning sensations • Weakness in the arms or legs • Sharp shooting or burning pains

If so, you may have a condition called peripheral neuropathy.

Peripheral neuropathy, or “nerve damage,” is one of the most chronic conditions in the U.S., affecting over 20 million Americans.

Neuropathy results from injury to the nerves in the arms and legs.This disrupts the body’s ability to communicate with its muscles, organs and tissues. Most people don’t recognize neuropathy’s symptoms, which are: • Pins and needles feeling • Numbness in the hands or feet • Tingling or burning sensations • Weakness in the arms or legs • Sharp shooting or burning pains These annoying problems may come and go...interrupt your sleep...or even make your arm or legs feel weak at times. But even if you’ve had neuropathy symptoms for a while, there are 3 common myths I often see with this condition.

do nothing about it will have either pain or disability 12 months later. Let’s face it, your neuropathy symptoms haven’t gone away by now, it’s not likely they will disappear on their own.And it’s been shown in studies that if ignored, symptoms can intensify causing loss of sensation, unremitting pain, and even disability.

Neuropathy Treatment System Relieves Numbness & Pain Fortunately, if you are suffering from any neuropathy pain, numbness or tingling, your symptoms may be relieved or eliminated by a new treatment.

We can get you scheduled for your Neuropathy Evaluation as soon as there’s an opening in our schedule.

What Other Professionals are saying about this program.

Myth #1: Thinking More Pills Are The Only Solution A common treatment for many nerve problems is the ‘take some pills and wait and see’ method.

While this may be necessary for temporary relief of severe symptoms, using them long term is no way to live. Some of the more common drugs given include pain pills, anti-seizure mediations, and anti-depressants -- all of which have serious side effects.

Why not look for a drugless solution instead of just covering over the pain?

”The ReBuilder has helped our patients who have painful side effects from chemotherapy neuropathy so much...”

-Cancer Treatment Centers of America. ”Previously, treating peripheral neuropathy patients hasn’t been really successful...but I’ve never seen resolutions like we’re seeing in these cases.”

Myth #3: Believing Numbness and Tingling will go away on it’s own.

In this Sept. 25, 2012, file photo, Google co-founder Sergey Brin gestures after riding in a driverless car with officials. Google engineers say they have turned a corner in their pursuit of creating a car that can drive itself.

Google: Driverless cars mastering city streets

By JUSTIN PRITCHARD The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – Google said that cars it has programmed to drive themselves have started to master the navigation of city streets and the challenges they bring, from jaywalkers to weaving bicyclists – a critical milestone for any commercially available self-driving car technology.

Despite the progress over the past year, the cars have plenty of learning to do before 2017, when the Silicon Valley tech giant hopes to get the technology to the public.

None of the traditional automakers has been so bullish. Instead, they have rolled out features incrementally, including technology that brakes and accelerates in stop-and-go traffic or keeps cars in their lanes.

“I think the Google technology is great stuff. But I just don’t see a quick pathway to the market,” said David Alexander, a senior analyst with Navigant Research who specializes in autonomous vehicles.

His projection is that self-driving cars will not be commercial available until 2025.

Google’s self-driving cars already can navigate freeways comfortably, albeit with a driver ready to take control. In a new blog post, the project’s leader said test cars now can handle thousands of urban situations that would have stumped them a year or

two ago.

“We’re growing more optimistic that we’re heading toward an achievable goal – a vehicle that operates fully without human intervention,” project director Chris Urmson wrote.

The benefits would include fewer accidents, since in principle machines can drive more safely than people.

Urmson’s post was the company’s first official update since 2012 on a project that is part of the company’s secretive Google X lab.

In initial iterations, human drivers would be expected to take control if the computer fails. The promise is that, eventually, there would be no need for a driver. Passengers could read, daydream, even sleep – or work – while the car drives.

That day is still years away, cautioned Navigant’s Alexander.

He noted that Google’s retrofitted Lexus RX450H SUVs have a small tower on their roofs that uses lasers to map the surrounding area. Automakers want to hide that technology in a car’s existing shape, he said.

And even once cars are better than humans at driving, it will still take several years to get the technology from development to large-scale production.

Google has not said how it plans to market the technology. Options include collaborating with major carmakers or giving away the software, as the company did with its Android

operating system. While Google has the balance sheet to invest in making cars, that is unlikely.

For now, Google is focused on the predictably common tasks of city driving.

To deal with cyclists, engineers have taught the software to predict likely behavior based on thousands of encounters during the approximately 10,000 miles the cars have driven autonomously on city streets, according to Google spokeswoman Courtney Hohne. The software plots the car’s path accordingly – then reacts if something unexpected happens.

Before recent breakthroughs, Google had contemplated mapping all the world’s stop signs. Now the technology can read stop signs, including those held in the hands of school crossing guards, Hohne said.

While the car knows to stop, just when to start again is still a challenge, partly because the cars are programmed to drive defensively. At a four-way stop, Google’s cars have been known to wait in place as other cars edge out into the intersection.

The cars still need human help with other problems. Among them, understanding the gestures that drivers give one another to signal it’s OK to merge or change lanes, turning right on red and driving in rain or fog (which requires more sophisticated sensors).

Wasting time means wasting more money Beginning of a journey.

No matter how long the road, every journey begins with the first steps. But isn’t every step a beginning? Isn’t every day a new opportunity to build, strengthen and support the work of the day before? How are the steps you take today ensuring you are harvesting success in the third and fourth quarters? How are you spending your time today to build your business?

Time. That often overlooked resource within an organization that can be lost and recouped. That finite resource that cannot be borrowed, built or bargained for but is critical to success.

Most successful businesses and professionals have strong processes in place to manage their resources, such as capital and equipment. We review our operating budgets looking for ways to run more efficiently and save capital. We consider the added value against the cost of a purchase, contract or hiring decision, but how often do we look at how we spend our time?

How often do we prioritize our choices by what is urgent for the

CHAMBER NEWS Mary Margaret Maule long-term, sustainable health of our business and not merely by what is important? How often do we focus our actions on achieving the three most important things to move the metrics of success?

Do you use your time and talent as strategically as you do your capital? I remember walking into a meeting of local business leaders and adding up the hourly value of the time being spent in the room, and then wondering afterward if I would have paid that much for the outcome of the discussion.

We often use value metrics for how we use our personal time, but what about the time spent by your organization? What is the opportunity cost of the time spent with no clear objective for an outcome?

Don’t misunderstand me. I understand and believe in the power of relationships, but I do not mistake being in a room with building

a relationship. Building a relationship means spending time that is relevant and productive.

I challenge you to review your calendar for meetings that have become habitual. The meetings in which agendas rarely change, the objective is not clear or has led to initiatives that are off strategy.

Would you pay someone to complete what you are doing in that meeting? Because you are. Avoid the frustration of “meeting to meet” by setting an expected outcome that aligns with your business goals for the year. How is what you are discussing benefiting your business?

Avoid initiative creep. Frequent meetings often lead to new initiatives that again spend time and talent without having to defend their value. Create a project proposal for each initiative that captures economic benefits and potential costs.

Rather than kill innovation as critics might cry, these practices will allow innovation to excel by focusing talent with a clear agreed upon end. Assign a point person to be accountable for the development and budget to ensure projects continue to progress. Whether your

business is big or small, time is the great equalizer.

How you spend your time is as valuable as how you spend your money.

BEYONCE, JAY Z TO CO-HEADLINE TOUR

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Tuesday, April 29, 2014 • Section B • Page 6

NEW YORK – Beyonce and husband Jay Z will launch the co-headlining “On the Run Tour” on June 25 in Miami.

Beyonce made the announcement Monday. The stadium tour will visit Philadelphia, East Rutherford, N.J., Chicago and Los Angeles. It wraps Aug. 5 in San Francisco. Tickets go on sale Friday. Pre-sale tickets go on sale Tuesday.

Beyonce and Jay Z have collaborated on a number of songs, including the hits “Crazy In Love,” ‘’Deja Vu,” “Part II (On the Run)” and the recent smash “Drunk In Love.”

Beyonce released her ultra-successful self-titled fifth album late last year in surprise form. Jay Z also had success with the release of “Magna Carta Holy Grail.”

Paul Simon, Edie Brickell arrested in Connecticut

Joel tells Stern about trying heroin NEW YORK – Billy Joel, in a wide-ranging interview at an event that included performances of his hits by Tony Bennett and Melissa Etheridge, dished on his past, including trying heroin and almost forming a supergroup with Sting.

The piano man opened up Monday in a two-hour interview with Howard Stern in front of 150 people in New York, where he also discussed his career, family, childhood and current month-to-month run at Madison Square Garden. Joel, who’s 64, said he tried heroin once but it “scared” him. He said it was the inspiration behind the song “Scandinavian Skies” from his 1982 album “The Nylon Curtain.” He also said he talked about forming a group with Sting, Don Henley and “another guitarist.”

“I liked being in a band,” he told the audience. “Someday we might put together a silly supergroup.”

Bennett closed the three-hour event, which aired live on Stern’s SiriusXM radio show, with a rousing rendition of “New York State of Mind” that earned him roaring cheers at the Cutting Room as Joel watched. Etheridge was a firecracker when she played guitar and sang “Only the Good Die Young,” which she said she listened to religiously in high school.

Joel said he doesn’t have plans to release new music but said he recently recorded a Christmas song with Johnny Mathis, who’s 78.

Joel answered questions from Stern, his sidekick Robin Quivers and fans, including TV personalities Rachael Ray and Matt Lauer, who asked about Joel’s daughter, singer Alexa Ray Joel.

“She’s really good,” Joel said. “Everyone thinks dad set it up ... she did it on her own.”

The interview ranged from Joel talking about attending the Woodstock festival in 1969, only to last a day and a half and miss Jimi Hendrix, to growing up Jewish on Long Island though he attended Catholic church and was baptized.

Joel is performing a monthly residency at Madison Square Garden. His next show is May 9, his 65th birthday.

NORWALK, Conn. – Paul Simon and his wife, Edie Brickell, were arrested on disorderly conduct charges by officers investigating a family dispute, but the couple held hands in court Monday and said they did not feel threatened by the other.

Simon told a Norwalk Superior Court judge that he had a rare argument with his wife Saturday night at their home in New Canaan.

The arrest struck a discordant note for the couple. Simon burst onto the national stage with his former partner Art Garfunkel in the 1960s, adding a gentle voice to the growing chorus of opposition to the Vietnam War. Brickell, meanwhile, gained fame for her songs that blend rock, folk, blues and jazz.

A caller from the singers’ home dialed 911 Saturday night and hung up, police chief Leon Krolikowski said at a news conference Monday. Officers who responded found minor injuries and believed it was a case of domestic violence, he said.

At Monday’s hearing, Simon and Brickell each said the other was not a threat. Judge William J. Wenzel said he did not see a need for a protective order. Simon, 72, and Brickell, 47, were asked to return to court on May 16.

Google, Jay Z among 2014 Webby winners NEW YORK – Google, Jay Z and crowdfunding site Kickstarter are among the winners of this year’s Webby Awards, a celebration of Internet achievement that got its start nearly two decades ago.

The awards are presented by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, a group of about 1,000 Web experts and Internet professionals. Judges included Tumblr founder David Karp and “House of Cards” actor Kevin Spacey.

Each Webby category is split in two: There’s an award from the academy and a “people’s voice” award for which anyone can cast an online vote. This year, about 500,000 people voted.

Harvard law professor Lawrence Lessig won a lifetime

achievement award. Lessig co-founded Creative Commons, which provides a way for people to license their online work for public use.

Another celebrity joins NYC carriage horse fight NEW YORK – More celebrities are choosing sides in the debate over carriage horses in New York City.

Jillian Michaels, a trainer who appears on NBC’s “The Biggest Loser” weight-loss competition, joined an anti-carriage rally on the steps of City Hall on Monday. The rally was sponsored by the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

Michaels said she feels it’s inhumane to make the animals work in Central Park and on Manhattan’s streets.

Mayor Bill de Blasio wants to ban the carriages and replace them with vintage-looking electric cars. But he may not have enough votes in the City Council to pass a law.

Alec Baldwin, Pink and Lea Michele also support the ban.

Actor Liam Neeson has been the most vocal celebrity wanting to keep the carriages.

Fox to broadcast live musical ‘Grease’ next year NEW YORK – Fox apparently isn’t going to let NBC dominate the world of live TV musicals.

Fox jumped into the theater game Monday by announcing it will broadcast a three-hour live version of the musical “Grease” that will feature “a young ensemble cast” that has yet to be named.

NBC got a ratings boost last December with its live broadcast of “The Sound of Music” starring Carrie Underwood. It said it’s working on a live production of “Peter Pan” for next December.

“Grease” features such songs as “Summer Nights,” “Greased Lightnin’,” “We Go Together” and “You’re the One That I Want.”

It was made into a 1978 film starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.

The live version will be a production of Paramount Television.

BLACKHAWKS

Toews earns good luck

The Blackhawks’ Jonathan Toews (right) passes the puck against the Blues’ David Backes during Game 6 of a first-round playoff series Sunday at the United Center.

The Hawks won, 5-1, to eliminate St. Louis

Captain has knack for being in right place at right time

By MARK POTASH mpotash@suntimes.com Of all of the renowned intangibles that make Jonathan Toews a special player – the leadership, the will to win, the clutch gene – one in particular is as hard to explain as it is maddening to defend: his golden touch.

It’s all a part of Toews’ growing legend as he turns 26 Tuesday with dead-aim on a third Stanley Cup to

go with his two Olympic gold medals.

In 2010, Toews blocked a shot in Game 3 against the San Jose Sharks in the Western Conference finals – it was his first blocked shot in six games – and the puck caromed neatly to Dave Bolland for a breakaway and a tiebreaking goal that led to a series sweep. Two days later, Duncan Keith blocked a shot with his face and lost seven teeth, leading to a short-handed

goal by the Sharks’ Patrick Marleau. Where Keith’s blocked shot turned into dental surgery, Toews’ block turned into gold.

Toews always has had a knack for being at the right place at the right time. But he outdid himself in the Hawks’ first-round Stanley Cup playoff series victory over the St. Louis Blues. With the Hawks down two games to none, Toews helped turn the series around with three plays that were as fortuitous

as they were timely – and that’s not even including his tiebreaking goal in Game 6: • • In Game 3, he put a shot on goal that Ryan Miller stops 99 times out of 100. Somehow, this one got through – you could see Miller’s look of disbelief even with his mask on – for a 1-0 lead that made the difference in the Hawks’ 2-0 victory.

Bears have offensive needs, too OK, Bears fans, it’s time to get serious. We’re fewer than 10 days and counting until the Bears step to the podium with the 14th overall pick in the NFL draft.

Barring any trades, including the swapping of draft picks, the Bears also will pick 51st, 82nd, 117th, 156th, Online 183rd and 191st.

The plan For more Bears heading into the draft preview draft should be to stories, visit get players who ChicagoFootball. can contribute com. immediately and eventually be starters for a number of years to come with their first three picks. At 117 and 156, they should find quality backups who can play special teams and perhaps eventually become starters, and at 183 and 191, draft the best athletes you can and hope you get lucky.

Up until now you’ve read and heard a lot about draft needs, but the reality is there’s not a position on the Bears’ depth chart where they couldn’t conceivably get better beyond perhaps receiver.

To ultimately be successful in building a perennial contender that always has young talent in the pipeline, you always draft the best football player available regardless of position.

That should be the golden rule, but NFL teams rarely stick to it. In the “Not For Long” league, the pressure to win now often causes clubs to look at needs beyond even talent.

Just for now, however, let’s stop screaming about the defense and see if the offense is really set?

Rather than just assume, as almost everybody is assuming that the Bears need defensive tackles, safeties, cornerbacks and linebackers in that order, let’s look at some facts.

Yes, believe it or not, the Bears were really good on offense last year and almost everybody is back.

But let’s see where they need to get better.

Matt Forte was brilliant for the second straight season, but nonetheless the Bears finished 16th in the league rushing, 19th in firstand-goal-to-go situations and much worse than that in short-yardage situations.

Now the Bears have no proven NFL player behind Forte.

Bulls forward Taj Gibson dunks in front of Washington Wizards forward Nene during Game 3 of a first-round playoff series Friday in Washington, a 100-97 win by the Bulls.

Gibson scored a career-high 32 points Sunday in Game 4, but the Bulls lost, 98-89, and face elimination entering Tuesday’s game at the United Center.

BULLS

It took time, but Gibson has arrived

By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com WASHINGTON – Not all players develop at the same pace. Some take time to nurture. Some require a slow walk. Some need a push.

Taj Gibson needed all three.

But make no mistake, he has arrived. He walked up to the door and kicked it open with the same ferocity and primal scream he attacks the rim with. Finally, Gibson has embraced his place in the organization.

“I think everyone is learning about Taj Gibson,” Bulls guard Jimmy Butler said over the weekend. “He’s making sure of that.”

Little has gone right for the Bulls in their first-round meeting with the Washington Wizards. They’re down 3-1 in the best-ofseven series, they look exhausted and they aren’t winning many matchups.

Then there’s Gibson.

The Sixth Man of the Year candidate is averaging 19.8 points and 6.8 rebounds in

Bulls vs. Wizards Game 1: Wizards 102, Bulls 93 Game 2: Wizards 101, Bulls 99 Game 3: Bulls 100, Wizards 97 Game 4: Wizards 98, Bulls 89 Game 5: @ Bulls, 7 p.m. Tuesday, CSN, TNT Game 6*: @ Washington, TBD Thursday, CSN Game 7*: @ Bulls, TBD Saturday, CSN, TNT * if necessary the series. In Game 4 on Sunday, he scored a career-high 32 points.

What’s refreshing about the 6-foot-9 forward/center is that he’s immune to getting caught up in his success. There will be a

time when he sits back and weighs whether he has reached the same core status as Joakim Noah and Derrick Rose, but it isn’t now as he helps the Bulls fight to stay alive.

“I’m playing for Coach Thibs [Tom Thibodeau], I’m playing for a winning organization,” Gibson said Monday. “Just having that pedigree of being on a team that’s known for winning, you should be good.

That’s what is expected here. The Bulls are supposed to have players that become a force.

“But right now, I’m just trying to keep my season going, trying to keep this going for all the right reasons. Like [assistant] Coach Mike [Wilhelm] always tells me, I put in the hard work all summer, all year, so don’t stop to admire anything right now.

Keep it going. That’s what Coach Thibs expects.”

Gibson hasn’t always been this focused.

Much of that had to do with his relationship with Thibodeau, or there lack of, early on.

Wild force Game 7 against Avalanche The ASSOCIATED PRESS ST. PAUL, Minn. – Zach Parise scored early and late on tipped shots, and the Minnesota Wild tacked on two empty-net goals for a 5-2 victory over the Colorado Avalanche on Monday night that sent the first-round playoff series to a decisive Game 7.

Parise and Mikko Koivu each had two assists. The teams will meet again Wednesday night in Denver, with the winner taking on the defending Stanley Cup champion Blackhawks in the Western Conference semifinals.

Parise scored just 49 seconds into the game and Mikael Granlund made it 2-0 later in the first period, but a costly turnover by Ryan Suter at the end of a failed 5-on-3 situation led to a short-handed goal for the Avalanche when Paul Stastny scored for the fourth time in the series.

Williams and Anze Kopitar each had two goals and an assist, and Jonathan Quick made 25 saves as the Kings became just the ninth team in NHL history to force a seventh game after losing the first three.

Gibson’s relationship with coach improves • GIBSON Continued from page C1 “I’ve come a long way because early on I wasn’t even talking to Thibs,” said Gibson, who’s in his fifth year. “I couldn’t even say two things to him without feeling different or not right. We couldn’t relate.”

And not just because one man is from the Fort Greene projects in Brooklyn and the other from New Britain, Conn.

It was more about Gibson not feeling worthy. “[Thibs] was a champion,” Gibson said. “Coach has been around guys like Kevin Garnett, he’s been around Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley, and I didn’t know how to get to him.

I didn’t feel like I could have easygoing talks with him be-

cause he’s so hard-nosed.

“As time went on, he’s been on me each year since the Team USA trials [three years ago], just been on me. But it was good. When I have a bad game, he’s [ticked] at me, and he lets me know. He’ll come and tell me, he’ll tell Coach Mike, and the message is the same: He wants the best for me, and that speaks volumes.”

Now Gibson and Thibodeau talk all the time, especially late at the Berto Center when Gibson is shooting and Thibodeau is breaking down film.

“I just feel like this is my place now,” Gibson said. “And I’m not looking to let that go anytime soon. It’s been a journey, but I’m here. Now you keep your head down and keep going.”

The NBA will make an announcement Tuesday about punishment for Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling after an audio recording surfaced in which a man purported to be Sterling made racist remarks while speaking to his girlfriend.

LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS

Strong sanctions likely for Sterling Silver to speak Tuesday; sponsors cut ties

By TIM REYNOLDS The Associated Press Outrage over racist comments purportedly made by embattled Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling hit a crescendo Monday, with corporations pulling their sponsorship deals with the team and coach Doc Rivers saying he believes “a very strong message” is coming from the NBA in response to the scandal.

That message will come Tuesday, when NBA commissioner Adam Silver holds a news conference in New York where he could reveal sanctions the league will impose on Sterling.

A suspension of indefinite length and hefty fine – Silver can issue one of up to $1 million without approval of owners – are possible options.

However, it remains unclear how far Silver’s powers can reach at this point, even though the NBA constitution gives the commissioner’s office a lot of latitude to protect the game’s best interest.

Many players simply want Sterling ousted, with Lakers star Kobe Bryant tweeting he “should not continue owning the clippers.”

“It needs to be handled in the right way,” Rivers said.

“I don’t even know what the right way is. I have a hunch.

But I don’t know.”

The Clippers had Monday off, with Rivers saying

he wanted his team to try and regroup mentally after a whirlwind weekend where Sterling’s alleged comments were revealed, first by TMZ and then in another recording posted on Deadspin.

The NBA has not said if it was able to authenticate the tapes, but Sterling’s wife told KABC-TV in Los Angeles that it was her husband on the recordings.

Rivers, who has declined a chance to speak with his boss, believes Sterling is on the tape.

“I can’t tell you how upset I am,” Rivers said.

Tuesday is shaping up as a potentially seismic day for the Clippers, in both the short- and long-term. Rivers’ team will host Golden State on Tuesday – about 8½ hours after Silver is scheduled to speak – in a crucial Game 5 of the teams’ Western Conference first-round series, knotted now at two games apiece.

Meanwhile, the Clippers are already taking hits in other ways over Sterling’s alleged comments.

CarMax and Virgin America announced they are ending their sponsorships of the team, and Kia Motors America plans to suspend its advertising and sponsorship activities with the franchise.

Insurer State Farm said it “will be taking a pause in our relationship with the organization,” although the popular ad campaign featuring Clip-

pers guard Chris Paul will continue, as will the company’s initiatives with the NBA. Los Angeles-based AQUAhydrate – launched by rap mogul Sean “P Diddy” Combs and actor Mark Wahlberg – also said it was suspending its sponsorship “in the wake of Sterling’s alleged intolerable comments ... until the NBA completes its investigation.”

Losing sponsors would not seem to be an issue that only hurts the Clippers, either. It could potentially impact bottom lines across the league because of revenue sharing and Basketball Related Income.

“The opportunity before Commissioner Silver to take an uncompromising stand against any form of prejudice in the NBA is unprecedented in the league,” said Marc H. Morial, the president and CEO of the National Urban League.

The NAACP said it has decided not to honor Sterling with a previously announced lifetime achievement award from its Los Angeles chapter.

The NAACP also plans to return an undisclosed amount of donations the Clippers owner has made to the organization.

Several team owners have condemned the alleged remarks in recent days, including Charlotte’s Michael Jordan, Miami’s Micky Arison, Washington’s Ted Leonsis and Indiana’s Herb Simon.

Olczyk: ‘It’s not luck when it happens over and over again’ • TOEWS Continued from page C1 • In Game 4, Toews took a pass from Patrick Kane in the slot and semi-whiffed on the shot but still managed to keep the puck alive, and Andrew Shaw scored for a 1-0 lead. the Hawks won, 4-3, in overtime.

• In overtime in Game 5, Toews just happened to be at center ice on a line change when Keith’s clearing attempt deflected off Shaw and right to Toews for a breakaway that Toews turned into a game-winning goal that gave the Hawks a 3-2 series lead.

“Lucky break by us,” Keith said.

Maybe. Maybe not.

“It’s not luck when it happens over and over and over again,” said NBC and Hawks analyst Eddie Olczyk. “It’s part of his DNA. Great players find a way to get the job done and put themselves in that position.

They have that anticipation, knowing what’s going to happen before it does. You make your own bounces. You make your own luck.”

Olczyk, who played 16 seasons in the NHL and coached the Pittsburgh Penguins, said other players have had that uncanny knack – Mario Lemieux and Wayne Gretzky off the top of his head. What makes Toews unique even among that group

is that he isn’t a prolific scorer.

Still, “He’s one of the top three players in the [NHL],” Olczyk said. “There’s no doubt he’s the best two-way player in the entire [NHL].”

As intangibles go, the uncanniness of Toews is becoming a not-so-secret weapon for the Hawks. It’s probably not a coincidence that Toews was so quiet in last year’s opening series against the Minnesota Wild – he didn’t score his first point until the clinching game – but a huge factor with three goals and seven points in a much more treacherous series AP file photo against the Blues.

MIAMI – Jack Ramsay served his country in World War II, coached Portland to the NBA title, was enshrined in the basketball Hall of Fame and became one of the game’s most respected and Jack revered broadRamsay casters.

His life was, by any measure, complete.

“Our father led the greatest life that one could lead,” the Ramsay family said in a statement released Monday, hours after the man that just about everyone in basketball called “Dr. Jack” died in Naples, Fla., at the age of 89.

No cause of death was announced, but Ramsay had fought several forms of cancer for many years and more recently was diagnosed with a marrow syndrome. Ramsay ended his broadcasting career with ESPN last year because of health problems, and word came last week that he had been placed into hospice care.

Ramsay coached in the NBA for parts of 21 seasons before embarking on a second career as an NBA analyst, eventually working for ESPN. He was diagnosed with melanoma in 2004 and later battled growths and tumors that spread to his legs, lungs and brain, as well as prostate cancer.

“Jack was a great man,” Indiana Pacers president Larry Bird said, “and I don’t use that term lightly.

Lloyd suspended 2 games for incident vs. Red Stars ELMA, N.Y. – Two-time Olympic gold medalist and Western New York Flash midfielder Carli Lloyd has been suspended for two games by the National Women’s Soccer League for using excessive force in a game against the Chicago Red Stars.

Lloyd was issued a yellow card for pulling down Red Stars midfielder Vanessa DiBernardo from behind by her jersey in the first half of the Flash’s 1-0 loss April 19 in Lisle. As DiBernardo was going down, Lloyd then swung around and struck the Red Stars player in the face.

Lloyd called the play “inexcusable” and apologized to DiBernardo in a statement released by the Flash.

QB Young expected to be at Browns’ minicamp BEREA, Ohio – As they contemplate choosing a quarterback early in the upcoming draft, the Browns will take a look at a former first-round pick.

Free agent quarterback Vince Young took a physical with the team Monday and was expected to participate in Cleveland’s minicamp this week. Browns general manager Ray Farmer said the team has been tracking Young, who hasn’t played in an NFL regular-season game since 2011 with Philadelphia.

He has spent parts of the past two offseasons with Buffalo and Green Bay.

EX-Browns star Kosar pleads to lesser charge CLEVELAND – Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar pleaded no contest to a lesser charge after blaming knee and ankle surgeries for not performing a field sobriety test during a traffic stop last year.

Kosar had been charged with drunken driving in September, but Monday he entered a plea to reckless operation and received a fine and suspended jail sentence.

Police said officers smelled a strong odor of alcohol when Kosar was pulled over in Solon, in suburban Cleveland.

Kosar has publicly talked about how head injuries suffered during his NFL career have affected his speech, making him sometimes slur his words.

The Browns last week said Kosar was being removed as a color commentator for preseason games.

RECRUITING NOTES

MIKE BORST McHenry, jr.

The left fielder had 10 hits in the Warriors’ four wins for the week as they went 4-1, with three Fox Valley Conference victories.

Borst singled and stole second in the ninth inning Saturday, then scored on an error as the Warriors edged Dundee-Crown, 3-2, in nine innings. He was 2 for 4 with a double and an RBI in that game.

Borst also was 2 for 5 with two doubles as McHenry beat D-C, 9-8, on Friday in nine innings.

On Thursday, Borst was 3 for 3 with an RBI and runs scored in the Warriors’ 4-2 win against Carmel. He also was 3 for 4 with a triple and an RBI in Tuesday’s 11-1 victory over Woodstock North.

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com Huntley senior Aubrie Purtell’s first college choice would have been Michigan, although she knew that also would have ended her gymnastics career.

“I’ve always dreamed of Michigan, but I know my caliber or gymnastics wasn’t that high,” Purtell said.

So when Michigan’s physical therapy program had reached its maximum number of students, Purtell was not all that disappointed. That opened the option of staying with gymnastics as a way to get some of her college expenses covered.

Purtell accepted a scholarship offer from Northern Illinois last week and will attend the DeKalb school in the fall, where she will study in the physical therapy program.

“It was meant to be,” she said. “It worked out for the best. Gymnastics is my passion.”

Purtell trains and competes for Crystal Lake Gymnastics Training Center and will go to the U.S. Junior Olympic Eastern Gymnastics Championships in two weeks in Jackson, Miss. She is competing at Level 10 for the first time.

Lisa Rumford, one of the coaches at CLGTC, said Purtell was a Level 9 Eastern NationAubrie als vault champion last Purtell year before moving to Level 10 this year. Purtell does not compete on a high school team.

“No one’s more deserving [of a scholarship] than Aubrie,” Rumford said. “No one. She works harder than anyone in our gym.”

Velasquez has been a two-year starter for Marengo’s football team, and also played basketball and baseball. Velasquez plans on majoring in biomedical engineering.

Pichardo to St. Francis: Harvard senior Jorge Pichardo, who is regarded as one of the Hornets’ best distance runners in school history, will run at NAIA St. Francis University in Joliet.

Pichardo finished fourth in the Big Northern Conference Meet last fall and was 55th in the Class 1A Boys Cross Country State Meet.

Whips rally for baseball win

Noteworthy Warriors are clutch: McHenry has shown a penchant for coming up with necessary plays – whether it’s pitching, defense or offense – to get out of close games. The Warriors (14-3 overall, 7-1 FVC Valley) are 6-1 in one-run games.

“They all have that never-giveup attitude,” McHenry coach Brian Rockweiler said. “Our [athletic director, Barry Burmeister] may have said it best the other night when he said, ‘These kids just hate to lose.’ In practice, they compete against each other and they go hard against each other until it’s over.”

Rockweiler said Borst and first baseman Dylan Weston have proved themselves as good pressure hitters.

“Anytime we seem to need a two-out hit to start something, one of those guys seems to be there,” Rockweiler said. “We’ve used a lot of guys this season, we’ve had so many contributing in some way. It’s been kind of fun.”

FVC Valley look: Jacobs leads the FVC Valley Division with a 9-1 mark, with McHenry (7-1), Dundee-Crown (7-2) and Huntley (7-2) close behind. The sweep of Huntley was big for Jacobs last week.

D-C seems to have taken up where it left off last season. The Chargers were last in the Valley, but advanced to the Huntley Sectional championship.

Busting out: Harvard (5-7) suffered through a four-game skid recently, the first two of which were no-hitters, but the Hornets bounced back for 24 hits in their past three games.

Harvard lost to Burlington Central and Richmond-Burton, the Big Northern Conference East Division’s best two teams, then defeated Winnebago, 6-1, Saturday with 10 hits.

Bradshaw was a three-year varsity starter for the Wolves and a Northwest Herald All-Area second-team selection this season. He averaged 15.7 points, hit 79.7 percent on free throws and made 50 3-pointers.

Bradshaw said Cornerstone baseball coach Dave Mitroff, a former Wolves baseball assistant coach, had a hand in recruiting him to play at Cornerstone.

Kaht to Lewis: Richmond-Burton distance runner James Kaht has accepted a scholarship offer at NCAA Division II Lewis University in Romeoville.

Kaht, a senior, was the Class 2A state runner-up in the 1,600 meters last year.

Kaht battled through injuries in the cross country season and was a Northwest Herald All-Area honorable-mention pick. At Lewis, Kaht will be running in the Great Lakes Valley Conference against his older brother, Richard, who runs at Saint Joseph’s College in Rensselaer, Ind. Burris to Augie: Prairie Ridge

St. Charles E. tabs Huntley resident Farquhar as coach

By JAY SCHWAB jschwab@shawmedia.com After playing high school football in the smallest enrollment class in Illinois, Huntley resident Bryce Farquhar on Monday was named the new football coach at St. Charles East, a program coming off a berth in the Class 8A playoffs, the Bryce state’s largest Farquhar class.

Farquhar – who coached lower-level football in East’s program over the past seven years and was an assistant coach at Richmond-Burton – considers a feverish work ethic the common denominator in his success, no matter where he’s been.

“I think I’ve gained the respect of coaches and kids just by putting in the work, and that’s really my vision for the program,” Farquhar said. “We’re going to put in the work to be successful not only as athletes but as men and good community members and good students. It’s such an awesome responsibility. I’m just proud to be in this spot.”

Farquhar, 34, replaces Mike Fields, who cited family considerations in stepping down after his fifth season with the Saints.

Farquhar was chosen from a pool of more than 40 applicants, according to East athletic director Mike Sommerfeld.

The hiring is subject to school board approval, which is expected to come May 12.

Working under a relatively compact time frame to hire a coach in time to set up the Saints’ summer program, Sommerfeld still sought in-

put from parents of East players, who expressed a desire that the coach implement a “robust” offseason program, assist players with college recruitment and generally help take the program to the next level.

East made the playoffs in three of Fields’ five seasons but did not win a playoff game.

“In the end, what they were looking for was exactly what we were looking for,” Sommerfeld said. “We met with the parents, and some of the things that they said they wanted, we definitely brought that perspective and kind of worked that into our questioning when we questioned the finalists. It was very important to hear from them because we need their support.”

At East, Farquhar first coached under Ted Monken, then Fields, but said he will bring a distinct brand of leadership to the program.

Fields – a longtime former sophomore coach at Geneva before coming to East – installed Farquhar as the Saints’ sophomore coach, knowing how crucial a role that is in a program.

“He’s qualified and he’ll do a wonderful job,” Fields said.

“He’s well respected by the kids. He’s got a bright future.”

A teacher in East’s Wellness Department, Farquhar (pronounced Fork-er) played high school football for a powerhouse 1A program in western Illinois, then known as Northwestern-La Harpe. He then attended but did not play football at nearby Western Illinois University before his teaching career took him to the Chicago suburbs.

A stint as an assistant football coach at Richmond-Burton preceded his move to St. Charles East.

Report: Harper to sit until July The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper reportedly is going to be sidelined at least until July because of surgery on his left thumb.

ESPN.com reported the two-time All-Star will have the operation Tuesday.

Washington spokesman John Dever declined to comment. The team was off Monday, and plays Tuesday night at Houston.

The Nationals put Harper on the 15-day disabled list Sunday, saying he had a sprained left thumb.

Harper was hurt Friday night on a headfirst slide into third base on a triple against San Diego. He didn’t leave the game until after the next inning.

“I slid into the bag and I caught it a little bit,” he said about his thumb after that game. “Went into the dugout, swung a couple in the cage, felt fine. Went out to the outfield, it swelled up a little bit. ... So I got in and got some treatment on it.”

Harper is hitting .289 with one home run and nine RBIs. The injury came less than a week after Harper was yanked from a game for what manager Matt Williams termed “lack of hustle” after heading toward the dugout instead of running out a groundout.

For the 21-year-old Harper, the 2012 NL Rookie of the Year, this will be the second prolonged injury absence of his brief career.

Last season, he missed 31 games because of bursitis in his left knee after crashing into outfield walls twice. He wound up having an offseason operation on the knee.

He said this winter that he hadn’t been 100 percent healthy even before running

into walls while playing defense in games April 30 and May 13 a year ago. Harper finished last season with a .274 batting average, 20 homers and 58 RBIs. Nate McLouth is expected to get extra playing time during Harper’s absence.

McLouth signed a $10.75 million, two-year contract with the Nationals as a free agent this offseason.

McLouth is hitting .118 – four hits in 34 at-bats – with one RBI in 2014. He homered Sunday against the Padres while starting in Harper’s place.

Harper’s injury is only the latest in a string to key players for the Nationals, and he joins two other members of the everyday lineup who also happen to be middle-of-theorder hitters – third baseman Ryan Zimmerman and catcher Wilson Ramos – along with a key offseason addition to their starting rotation – right-hander Doug Fister – on the disabled list.

Ramos broke a bone in his left wrist Opening Day, and Zimmerman broke his right thumb April 12 while diving into a bag, similar to Harper. Fister has been sidelined since spring training with a back muscle injury.

Braun out, could miss 3 more games: At St. Louis, Milwaukee outfielder Ryan Braun was held out of the Brewers’ starting lineup for a second straight game Monday with a strained intercostal muscle.

Braun, injured Saturday in a 5-3 win over the Cubs, is still considered day-to-day.

Brewers manager Ron Roenicke indicated Braun will not go on the disabled list, but he could miss at least two, and maybe three, more games.

Braun is hitting .318 with six homers and 18 RBI in 22 games.

After hitting a two-run home run Sunday, White Sox designated hitter Jose Abreu celebrates with teammate Marcus Semien against the Tampa Bay Rays at U.S. Cellular Field.

WHITE SOX

Williams thrilled he got Sox to sign Abreu Exec convinced Reinsdorf he was worth it

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com When Ken Williams went on a scouting mission to the Dominican Republic in October to see Jose Abreu, he hoped he wouldn’t like what he’d see.

“The prices on some of these signings have gotten out of control,” Williams said, and there was talk that Abreu’s contract would exceed fellow Cuban Yasiel Puig’s $42 million deal.

After seeing him, the White Sox executive vice president had no doubt Abreu was the real deal. Four weeks later, Abreu was signed to a sixyear, $68 million contract.

After watching that batting-practice session that was nothing about showmanship and everything about a professional approach to hitting, Williams said he wanted to give Abreu a standing ovation.

He got on the phone to chairman Jerry Reinsdorf and general manager Rick Hahn.

“I said, ‘Here’s where we are boys: I want him and I want him bad.’ ” The Sox won the bidding tussle for Abreu, which involved five teams offering somewhere around the $60 million mark.

And Williams and everyone else associated with the Sox is glad they did. The 27-year-old rookie went into Monday’s game against the Rays leading the major leagues with 10 homers and 31 RBIs. “And it hasn’t even warmed up yet,” Williams said.

As high as he was on

De Aza rallies Sox CHICAGO – Alejandro De Aza hit a two-run homer, and Adam Eaton and Marcus Semien had two-run doubles, leading the White Sox to a 7-3 comeback victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday night.

Sox slugger Jose Abreu went 2 for 4 with a walk and an RBI, his 32nd.

The Sox (14-13) moved above .500 by taking three of four from Tampa.

– The Associated Press Abreu, Williams didn’t see this happening.

“I didn’t expect 10 home runs and 30-plus RBI in less than a month,” he said. “I still caution everyone to not get too far in terms of expectations on numbers.”

All Williams will ask of Abreu is to continue be a disciplined hitter with a good approach and plan. He knows the homers will take care of themselves because of his strength.

“He’s a focused young man and he’s very humble, too,” Williams said.

When Reinsdorf asked Williams before negotiations to place a value on Abreu, Williams said four years, $40 million. When the numbers escalated during talks, “Jerry, the lawyer that he is, asked, ‘If you’re comfortable at 40 why not another year at 50?’ And then it kept going higher and higher,” Williams said. “Understand that the higher it gets … the greater you have to put your butt on the line. It began to get uncomfortable.”

Reinsdorf then wanted to

know if Abreu would be an everyday player his first year.

Williams said he was 100 percent certain if Abreu stayed healthy.

“What people don’t know about Jerry and Rick – and Jerry in particular – they were never on the field, but the competitiveness they have behind the scenes is as intense as any player that has been on that field. So they were on it, man. Next thing I know I’m getting calls at midnight. At one point I got off the phone and turned to [my fiancée] and said, ‘I have never been in the position where Jerry is trying to talk me into raising an offer.

This is really bizarre.’ ” In the end, Reinsdorf, Williams and Hahn got their man. “[It’s like] when Detroit acquires Miguel Cabrera, you know?” Rays coach Joe Maddon said Monday. “Or Mike Trout surfaces in Anaheim.

There’s always these prodigy kind of players out there, that when they show up, it’s a combination of great work ethic, calm and an ability to go out there and perform. That’s what I see with [Abreu].”

CUBS

Bailey: Cubs might be bluffing about getting rid of Samardzija

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com CINCINNATI – Homer Bailey thinks the Cubs might be bluffing with Jeff Samardzija by letting him believe they’ll trade him in July rather than make the kind of contract offer it will take to keep him.

Maybe that’s easy to say from the Cincinnati Reds’ clubhouse, where all the star power and big-money players resided Monday, when the Cubs and Reds were rained out.

Maybe it’s especially easy to say for Bailey, who got the contract two months ago that might have cinched Samardzija’s short-term status with the Cubs. Bailey got paid despite a 4.31 career ERA and a losing record for a playoff team last season.

“I think the Cubs will spend money where they feel like it’s needed,” Bailey said, trying to make reason out of the team with the biggest market in the NL Central spending less on its players this year ($75 million) than

the Kansas City Royals ($90.4 million), Tampa Bay Rays ($82 million), Pittsburgh Pirates ($77.8 million) and Oakland Athletics ($77.2 million).

“And maybe it will be Samardzija. We don’t know that,” Bailey said. “The Cubs might be playing a bluff card.

That’s part of going into a negotiation, too. There’s so many strategies.”

Bailey is one of the biggest reasons Samardzija and the Cubs have little chance of resurrecting long-dead talks.

His six-year, $105 million extension raised the bar on the pitching market, dwarfing what was believed to be a fiveyear offer by the budget-conscious Cubs for Samardzija at far less annual value.

Further dividing the sides is a difference of opinion on how closely the two pitchers should be compared. Bailey is younger with more experience as a starter; Samardzija has fewer innings and a better career ERA, and he never has been on the disabled list.

So what does Bailey think about his impact on the Cubs’

payroll decisions and longterm pitching plans?

He won’t go there, except to say, “It’s all just the game.

That’s just the way it is. And people can gripe about it and do whatever they want to about it.”

It’s just business, he said.

And if the Cubs are bluffing, Samardzija certainly isn’t.

The former Notre Dame football star with the frontline-starter stuff and the negative sentiment toward rebuilding isn’t giving anybody a team-friendly deal just to spend more time in last place while waiting for prospects.

“Everybody’s here for the present,” he said. “Tomorrow’s not guaranteed to anybody, let alone next year or the year after that. You’ve got to look for today and do everything you can to enjoy today.

And the way you enjoy today is you win today.”

There hasn’t been much of that for Samardzija, who will pitch Tuesday after his scheduled start was rained out Monday.

KENTUCKY DERBY

FIVE-DAY PLANNER TEAM

‘Chrome’ has trainer dreaming

By BETH HARRIS The Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Art Sherman knows what it’s like to be at the Kentucky Derby with a brilliant colt that wins the race.

He just hasn’t done it in 59 years.

In 1955, Sherman was an 18-yearold exercise rider for Swaps, a California-bred chestnut colt who beat Nashua to wear the garland of roses on the first Saturday in May. “I was just a kid then and just glad to be learning,” he said.

Now he’s 77 and bringing his own California-bred chestnut to Churchill Downs, where California Chrome is the likely favorite.

The colt with the modest pedigree and impressive résumé traveled outside his home state for the first time Monday. He flew to Churchill Downs, where he’ll start getting used to the surface with a jog Tuesday.

“He’ll look around and know he’s at a racetrack and feel right at home,” Sherman said. “That’s the way he is.”

California Chrome has won his past four races by a combined 24¼ lengths, including the $1 million Santa Anita Derby.

“He’s the kind of horse you dream about,” Sherman said.

California Chrome finished first in the Derby points leaderboard that determines the maximum 20-horse field for the 1¼-mile race.

He’s won six of 10 career starts and has already topped $1 million in earnings.

Pretty impressive for a colt from humble beginnings.

His mother, named Not For Love, won only one race. She was purchased for $8,000 by Steve Coburn and Perry Martin, a move that prompted a trainer to call them “dumb asses” for getting involved

California Chrome stands in a horse van Monday after arriving at Churchill Downs for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby in Louisville, Ky. in racing.

Feeling inspired, Coburn and Martin named their operation DAP Racing, which stands for Dumb Ass Partners. Their silks include an image of a donkey.

“We’re everyday people. I’m up at 4:30 every day going to work,” said Coburn, a press operator at a 13-employee Nevada company that makes magnetic strips for credit cards and driver licenses.

Martin runs a laboratory in Sacramento, Calif., that tests high-reliability equipment, like car air bags or medical equipment, or as he says, “The kind where somebody dies if something goes wrong.”

Coburn and Martin’s partnership is based on handshake, and their wives are friends who enjoy the sport, too. The group came up with California Chrome’s name by drawing it out of a hat.

Sherman has his first Derby starter because Coburn and Martin

contacted him about training their horse.

“He’s old school and he’s a regular guy,” Coburn said. “He doesn’t have a huge barn and he’s able to spend quality time with every horse he has in his barn.”

Sherman is based at Los Alamitos Racecourse in Orange County, Calif., 30 miles and a world away from Santa Anita, the mecca of racing in Southern California.

Once a former jockey and racing official, Sherman took out his trainer’s license in 1980. His son, Alan, assists him with California Chrome, easily the best horse that’s ever been in their barn.

“I’m very humbled to have a horse like this,” said the elder Sherman, whose personality is not unlike that of California Chrome.

“He’s so easy going, laidback. Nothing seems to bother him.”

Sherman plans to tour California Chrome around Churchill Downs.

He wants the colt to get used to the paddock, where he will be saddled Saturday, and the starting gate, where 20 fractious colts will line up.

“He gets anxious in the gate,” Sherman said. “He knows he’s got to come away from there running so we have to school him.”

He’ll probably slip California Chrome some of his favorite horse treat – Mrs. Pasture’s Paddock Cookies, made of molasses, corn and barley.

“I’ve had some,” Coburn said.

“They’re good. Tastes like a granola bar.”

Come Saturday evening, Sherman, Coburn, Perry and jockey Victor Espinoza hope to be tasting victory.

“I know there’s always a question until they’ve done it, but I really think this horse will go a mile and a quarter, no problem,” Sherman said. “He’s doing everything right.”

No NASCAR penalty needed for Mears-Ambrose dust-up

AP file photo

Race officials run toward Brazil’s Ayrton Senna after he crashed May 1, 1994, during the San Marino Grand Prix in Imola, Italy. Senna later died at a Bologna hospital.

FORMULA ONE

Remembering Senna Imola to mark 20th anniversary of driver’s death

By ANDREW DAMPF The Associated Press ROME – It is a testament to Ayrton Senna’s lasting impact on Formula One that the 20th anniversary of his death will be observed this week with five days of commemorations at the Imola track where he had his fatal accident.

Current and past F1 drivers, mechanics, racing officials and fans will pay their respects to Senna and Austrian driver Roland Ratzenberger, who also died at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.

“When I was a kid, I had all the books, all the videos, [Senna] was the driver I looked up to, way before I even started racing,” Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton said shortly before winning the Chinese Grand Prix eight days ago. “He kind of inspired me to even be a driver.”

Hamilton was 9 at the time of Senna’s death.

“It was very difficult for several days to really [accept] your

hero’s gone,” the British driver said.

Senna was a hero to many and is often voted as the greatest F1 driver in history.

He won three Formula One titles – in 1988, 1990 and ’91 – all with McLaren. He moved to the Williams team for his tragic 1994 season. Despite his career being cut short when he was 34, his 41 wins stand third all-time behind Michael Schumacher’s 91 and rival Alain Prost’s 51.

Beyond the numbers, Senna attracted legions of followers for his humbleness and strong Catholic faith.

“He was loved to an unbelievable degree,” said Mauro Forghieri, a former car designer for Ferrari and other F1 teams, who was called on as an expert witness in the court trial after Senna’s death.

Forghieri recounted how when Senna’s coffin was transported back to his native Brazil, it wasn’t put in the airplane’s luggage hold but rather placed over three rows of the first-class cabin.

“Of course the airline and the pilot were Brazilian,” Forghieri told The Associated Press in an interview. “He was considered much more important than a president.”

The Brazilian government declared three days of national mourning for Senna, and an estimated 3 million people lined the streets as his coffin was driven into his hometown of Sao Paulo.

“I remember that I was watching television with my father, and obviously as a child you don’t really understand what’s going on, but just by the reaction of my father, I obviously got to understand that it was very serious and a big loss for Formula One” said four-time defending F1 champion Sebastian Vettel, who was 6 when Senna died.

“I think only later on and probably the last couple years, I managed to understand how big the loss was for the sport because I got to work with people that used to know him, [and work] with him,” Vettel added.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Quick quiz: Who won the 1979 Daytona 500?

The answer, of course, is Richard Petty.

But very few people – if any – equate that race with “The King” grabbing the sixth of his seven Daytona 500 victories. That race is instead infamous for the last-lap crash between Donnie Allison and Cale Yarborough as they raced for the lead. The crash sparked a three-man fight after Allison’s brother, Bobby, pulled up to the accident scene.

The brawl in the closing moments of the first race to be broadcast live in its entirety was a monumental moment for NASCAR, and the lasting image as the traditionally Southern sport officially announced its arrival on the national scene.

Fast forward 35 years later to Saturday night at Richmond International Raceway, where tempers flared after the race. It seemed much ado about nothing when Brad Keselowski stomped down pit road to angrily wag his finger at Matt Kenseth in a scene that was just enough to keep viewers from changing the channel, but not enough to generate any real excitement.

Then things got really interesting.

An overhead camera happened to catch Casey Mears confronting Marcos Ambrose in the garage. About? Who knows. The two were racing each other for 18th place and Fox hardly had its cameras tuned to that battle.

But something happened between the two to get Mears upset, and his anger only grew as Ambrose seemed to dismiss him and turn away. So Mears grabbed the Australian, shoved him a bit and Ambrose responded with a right hook to Mears’ eye. It was hard enough to draw blood and knock Mears’ hat from atop his head.

NASCAR is reviewing the incident and considering whether to discipline either of the drivers in its Tuesday penalty notices.

If the sanctioning body is smart, it will close the file and move on to Talladega without taking any action against either driver.

Forget for a minute that it was a fight that put NASCAR on the national map, and that hard-scrabble, passionate drivers who aren’t afraid of confrontation are the bedrock of the sport. To this day, it’s those incidents that generate the most conversation. Joey Logano’s late pass of Kenseth, Keselowski and Jeff Gordon to win the race didn’t garner many national headlines on Sunday, but Ambrose’s shot to Mears’ face most certainly did.

The decision to leave Ambrose and Mears alone isn’t about the attention that a fight draws to the sport.

It’s about short-track racing on a Saturday

IN THE PITS Jenna Fryer night and the emotions that come from driving hard on tight tracks and in close quarters.

Fans watch Bristol and Martinsville and Richmond fully expecting to be treated to bumping and banging and the post-race confrontations that come from explosive tempers.

The incidents are celebrated and find their way into promotional materials for the tracks and NASCAR itself.

Taking that into account, Mears can’t be punished for confronting Ambrose after the race. Something happened on the track that infuriated him enough to seek out Ambrose.

That conversation happened to take place in the garage, NASCAR’s version of the office place, and it happened in a flurry of frenetic, post-race activity. Drivers return their cars to the haulers after the race, and at Richmond, the haulers are lined up in tight quarters.

Crews are working furiously to pack up the car and the equipment, fans are milling about trying to chase down their favorite driver, reporters are rushing to seek out interviews before the parties slip away in the darkness.

In that setting, Ambrose was grabbed and then shoved by a fellow driver. He reacted violently with a punch that might have startled Floyd Mayweather Jr., let alone Mears.

Should Ambrose be punished for defending himself? For reacting in a heated moment? Absolutely not. It wasn’t a sucker punch, it didn’t put any crew members or fans in danger, and Mears himself seemed to take it in stride.

The morning after he was punched, Mears ran in Jimmie Johnson’s charity race and acknowledged Ambrose “got me pretty good with that shot” in an interview with NASCAR.com.

“Out of all the NASCAR fights or punches or when you see people swinging, usually it’s a lot of fly-swatting. He actually connected, so that was pretty good,” Mears said. “Everybody gets mad after those races when everybody is trying so hard. It’s a passionate sport, obviously. It’s tough when you first get out of the car, when you don’t have a good chance to cool off, it escalates pretty quick.”

Indeed, the culture of short-track racing is an expectation of post-race fireworks.

Unless NASCAR wants to remove that element and expectation, it should leave Ambrose and Mears alone.

HEALTH WATCH

Larry Bowa

TIP OF THE WEEK

Learn more about shingles Larry Bowa may be known for his baseball prowess and fiery personality, but in June 2013, the two-time Golden Glove winner was stopped in his tracks by a case of shingles, which he says caused him some of the worst pain of his life. Bowa said the pain he felt was so intense he barely could walk, originally leading him to think he had injured his back. But his MRI came back negative, and he received instead an unexpected diagnosis of shingles.

“I was a professional athlete for most of my life, and I’m still an active guy, so I was surprised to find that I developed a disease this painful,” said Bowa, 67.

Bowa learned he was at risk for shingles simply because he had had chickenpox, which according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 98 percent of U.S. adults have had.

Shingles is the common name for herpes zoster, a disease caused by reactivation of the varicella zoster virus, the same virus that causes chickenpox.

This virus never leaves the body. Instead, it lies dormant in the nervous system, and at some point later in life, it can reactivate and erupt as shingles.

As you get older, your risk increases.

The first symptoms of shingles are often felt, but may not be seen, and may initially include itching, tingling or burning in a specific area on one side of the face or body.

Nuture with positive facial expressions “Parents play a daily role in promoting lifelong health by focusing on positive ways to nurture brain development, starting in infancy and extending through the toddler years,” said Dr. James M. Perrin, 2014 president of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Be aware of what your face is “saying,” Perrin said.

“Temper negative feelings because your baby is feeling them as well. Infants let us know when they’ve had enough and it’s time for a nap by avoiding eye contact, becoming sleepy or fussy, coughing or rubbing his or her eyes.”

VIRTUAL CHECKUP When connecting with a dentist doesn’t mean an office visit

BY DANIELA HERNANDEZ | Kaiser Health News Inside a South Los Angeles classroom filled with plastic dinosaurs, building blocks, stuffed animals and Dr. Seuss books, Mireya Rodriguez counts Hendryk Vaquero’s teeth and looks for cavities. ! At just 4 years old, he already has nine stainless steel crowns and multiple fillings, and his gums show signs of inflammation and infection. Since a check-up more than three months ago, he’s lost a couple of teeth, including a capped tooth his mom pulled out after it started bleeding. ! “Pero no llore,” said the boy, assuring Rodriguez in Spanish he didn’t cry.

This was only the second time the dental hygienist examined his teeth, many of which have rotted, in part because he is eating too many sweets and drinking milk before falling asleep. Later, a dentist at the Venice Family Clinic 16 miles away will pull up his records online and consult with Rodriguez on his case – without ever necessarily seeing the patient.

It’s all part of a free “teledentistry” program for low-income patients in California who don’t have access to regular dental care. Often they’re stymied by high costs and a shortage of dentists who treat the poor. Many also face language barriers, lack legal immigration status, are afraid of dentists or have a poor understanding of what causes dental problems.

“The only thing that they know is that they have to provide for their family and that’s the most important thing for them,” said Rodriguez, who comes to the Volunteers of America Silva Head Start program on a regular basis.

Rodriguez is among 15 specially trained hygienists and dental assistants who work online with dentists as part of a $2.5 million experiment designed to deliver preventive dental care and education to underserved populations.

Funded for now by grants from nonprofits, trade associations and

others, the Virtual Dental Home Demonstration Project has been launched in 50 locations throughout the state, including Pacoima, Santa Monica, San Jose, Santa Cruz, East Palo Alto, San Francisco, Sacramento and Eureka.

With special permission from the state, the hygienists and dental assistants travel from place to place performing basic procedures not in their scope of practice – for instance, deciding which X-rays to take or installing temporary fillings that help prevent early decay from progressing – then consult remotely with dentists on how to proceed. Sometimes, after doing what they can, they send a patient to a dentist’s office.

Operating at community sites ranging from schools to nursing homes, the program is meant to boost access and maximize the expertise and efficiency of the people delivering care.

The Virtual Dental Home Demonstration Project “really changes the idea of what the dental team and the dental practice is – from being confined to the four walls of a dental office to now having a team that can be spread out,” said Dr. Paul Glassman, a dentist at the University of the Pacific in San Francisco, who started the program.

A bill pending before the state Legislature would expand the Virtual Dental Home approach

The dental hygienist uses a laptop with Internet connection to transmit photos and videos to a pediatric dentist, who uses the information to make recommendations for treatment.

“It’s a crisis of financing, not a crisis of providers. If people can’t afford a dentist, they’re not going to be able to afford a dental therapist.”

Dr. Jonathan Shenkin, dentist in Augusta, Maine statewide and require Medi-Cal, the government health insurance program for the poor and disabled, to pay for procedures facilitated by the Internet.

The bill, AB 1174, passed unanimously in the Assembly. It is expected to come up for vote in the state Senate later this year and enjoys wide bipartisan support. Expanding the program statewide would increase costs minimally in the short term – by upward of $500,000 a year, according to a State Assembly’s Appropriations Committee fiscal analysis. If teledentistry takes off, the costs could be higher.

Advocates think the return on that investment could be sub-

stantial. For every dollar spent in preventive services like the ones provided through the Virtual Dental Home demonstration project, an estimated $50 is saved on more expensive, complicated procedures, said Dr. James Stephens, president of the California Dental Association.

However, some dental organizations around the country have spoken out against letting hygienists, assistants and other midlevel providers do procedures typically reserved for dentists.

In Maine, dentists have fought a bill creating a special category of provider called dental therapists, who would perform some of the duties of hygienists and dentists.

Physician burnout is all too common in medical field Physician burnout is a serious problem. It not only affects physicians and their families, but it also has an impact on their patients.

Studies have shown of all workers, physicians have the highest rate of burnout.

A Medscape study completed a year ago came up with some interesting and disturbing findings on this subject. In this study, overall there was a burnout rate of 40 percent. Burnout was defined as a loss of enthusiasm for work, feelings of cynicism and a low sense of personal accomplishment.

Those with the highest

VIEWS Dr. Murray Feingold rate of burnout were doctors in emergency medicine, critical care and family practice.

Physicians in the specialties of pathology, psychiatry, ophthalmology and pediatrics had the lowest percentages of burnout.

The most common causes of burnout included too much bureaucratic paperwork, long working hours, impact of the Affordable Care Act, lack of professional

fulfillment and inability to provide patients the care they need.

Forty-five percent of women reported burnout in contrast to 37 percent of men.

The highest rate of burnout was in physicians between the ages of 46 and 55.

Doctors who were burned out spent less time going on vacations. Forty percent spent two weeks or less on vacations, which was significantly less time than doctors who did not experience burnout.

The favorite pastimes of both groups of doctors were the same: spending time with

their families.

These statistics are very discouraging. The United States currently is facing a physician shortage, which is predicted to get worse with the enactment of the Affordable Care Act. We cannot afford to lose any more physicians.

Being a physician has never been an easy life. Working long hours is a way of life and doctors were aware of this when they decided to become physicians.

However, the increasing amount of paperwork, the loss of decision-making in managing their patients and other

issues have had a negative impact on physicians’ happiness with their professional choice.

So, add physician burnout as one more in a long list of issues that need to be addressed to help repair an already struggling medical care system.

Dr. Murray Feingold is the physician-in-chief of The Feingold Center for Children, medical editor of WBZ-TV and WBZ radio, and president of the Genesis Fund. The Genesis Fund is a nonprofit organization that funds the care of children born with birth defects, mental retardation and genetic diseases.

PLANIT NORTHWEST /PlanitNorthwest.com

BY JEFF LEEN The Washington Post Mildred Burke had one of the strongest necks in the world.

A champion pro wrestler in the 1930s and the first female athlete to earn $1 million, Burke was only 5 feet 2 inches tall, but her bulging neck measured 14 inches around. To entertain the crowd, she would lie on her back in the center of the ring and lift her body off the mat using only her head and neck, in what is known as a “bridge.”

Mildred Burke’s greatgranddaughter has one of the weakest necks in the world.

Kelly Koep, 27, of Grants Pass, Ore., has Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, or EDS, a genetic disorder that interferes with the synthesis of collagen. Once thought to be extremely rare, EDS was identified at the turn of the 20th century and comes in six forms that range from mild to severe.

Evidence suggests the most common form, which often results in double-jointedness, occurs in one in 100 people; about one in 5,000 have more severe cases, which sounds like a nightmare out of science fiction: The ligaments in the body cannot hold the bones together.

Koep’s is one of the most severe cases. Over the years, she has repeatedly dislocated elbows, knees, shoulders and – four times – her jaw. “I’ve always been that kid who could do weird, contortionist sorts of things,” she said. “I can basically fold my back in half and rest my shoulder blades on my butt.”

More recently, the increasing instability in her spinal column required her to wear a neck brace and to use a wheelchair. She got up only twice a day, to use the bathroom. There was concern her loose vertebrae might be compressing the arteries in her neck, risking stroke.

“It felt like my head was so full of pressure that it was going to explode from the inside out,” she said.

On Christmas Eve last year, she came to Doctors Community Hospital in Lanham, Md., for a 3 1/2-hour surgery

by Fraser Henderson of the Metropolitan Neurosurgery Group.

Two days after the surgery, in a hospital hallway, she was able to walk more than 200 feet for the first time in more than a year.

Kelly Koep, 27, of Grants Pass, Ore., gets a kiss from her father, Tom Koep, as she waits to be prepped for surgery at Doctors Community Hospital in Lanham, Md. She has a genetic disorder known as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome that affects the body’s ability to synthesize collagen.

“I immediately felt better after the surgery,” she said Early on, Koep’s parents recognized she was different.

As a toddler, she dislocated her elbow when she fell out of bed. She dislocated it again while being carried by a relative. That didn’t look good: Her mother, Wendy Koep, also had been a pro wrestler.

“The second time it happened, the hospital accused my mom of child abuse,” Koep said. “They held her at the hospital and called Child Services on her. They couldn’t believe her. Finally, they got ahold of my doctor.”

Always, it was just loose joints, growing pains. Her hips and feet gave her trouble when she walked. Then the parade of sprained ankles, dislocations, subluxations.

She was always on crutches at school. She was strong, like her great-grandmother – the same body type, compact and stocky. But even though she was stronger than the boys, she couldn’t play sports because of her weak joints.

Fifth grade was knee braces, sixth grade was ankle braces, seventh grade was a back brace. She had trouble breathing, and they said she had athletic asthma. She got blurred vision. She couldn’t

concentrate in class. At 16, she dropped out and ran away from home. Eventually, she came back, got her G.E.D., learned to meditate and beat back her depression.

In 2005, when she was 19, an orthopedic surgeon told her she probably had a condition called EDS, hypermobility type. It was incurable, and surgery was not recommended.

She researched EDS on the Internet and didn’t find much. Loose joints have been around forever, but EDS was named only at the beginning of the 20th century, after the two physicians who first described it, Edvard Ehlers from Denmark and Henri-Alexandre Danlos from France.

It was not until 1998 that the criteria for an EDS diagnosis were established.

In 2006, Koep and her mother attended a conference of the National EDS Foundation in Austin, Texas. “Everything they were speaking about sounded exactly like me,” Koep said.

She resolved to live as best she could. She was careful to sleep flat on her back, and she did exercises to strengthen her muscles. She went to beauty school, and after graduating she and her boyfriend started a new life in Las Vegas, where

she worked at the spa at the MGM Grand.

But her condition followed her. “It was too hard for me to work in the salons and hold up blow driers,” she said. So she became a cosmetology instructor.

One day she took an ill-advised ride on a roller coaster.

“I couldn’t walk straight” afterward, she said. “I had so much pain I couldn’t even see straight. That roller coaster could have killed me.”

One doctor in Las Vegas thought it was multiple sclerosis. Up to this point, she thought that EDS affected only her joints. Now she thought, “Is it possible that EDS is affecting my spine?”

Another doctor, an expert in brain and spinal abnormalities, told her it definitely was.

“He said the ligaments in my spine were loose and not holding up my head, and he said it was causing a spinal-cord compression.” He prescribed a brace. “He said I might have to wear the neck brace for life and deal with the disability.”

She moved back to Oregon to live with her mom, her condition clearly worsening.

She suffered from tremors. “I was getting so many neurological symptoms that I couldn’t even live my daily life. I got

to the point where I started choking so bad I almost died a few times.”

Five years had gone by since she had done her initial research on EDS. “I got back on the Internet and I started Googling around,” she said. “This time there were results all over the place. Facebook was just a huge network of EDS people talking about special surgeries. A lot of them have the same problem I have with my spine. The main surgeon that everyone was researching was Dr. Henderson. That is how I first heard about him.”

Henderson, a professor of neurosurgery at Georgetown University Medical Center, estimates he has seen more than 500 EDS patients over the past decade. He said 95 percent of them have been women and they usually are inordinately bright and extremely knowledgeable about their disorder.

But despite his experience, he sometimes is taken aback at the extent of the disabling conditions he sees.

“I’ve seen many cases where I literally wanted to run away,” he said. “Some patients have been so critically ill that no one would touch them.

Many of them have been to university programs and had

been turned away. And I was very concerned myself as to whether I could take care of these most severe cases.”

Misdiagnoses are common because the symptoms can be so varied. Collagen is in many different systems in the body, including the joints, the spine, the heart, the eyes and the skin. Henderson has seen patients with as many as 30 symptoms. He believes EDS is more common than previously thought, with many people unaware they are living with the condition.

“None of this information was around, really, more than 14 or 15 years ago, and it’s still not being taught in medical school,” Henderson said. “We were taught that the condition was very rare and we would probably never see a case.”

Henderson said surgery is not a panacea and should be a last resort in extreme cases where physical therapy has failed, such as Koep’s.

“Dealing with issues one at a time, we have been able to return most of these people to a reasonable life,” he said.

“Many have gotten married, gone on to school, taken good jobs. Many patients don’t return to full-time employment, but their lives become more livable.”

Because EDS is a multisystem disorder, surgery addresses only one aspect of a larger problem, Henderson said. “With the surgery, we can fix certain aspects, we can mitigate the problem, but it doesn’t mean there aren’t other issues.”

Eight weeks after her surgery, Koep was still feeling much improved. She could get out of her chair regularly and walk around, doing without the neck brace for most of the day.

“It’s amazing,” she said.

“I don’t have the pressure in my head anymore. And I am able to walk.”

But with a limp. Her right hip, always loose, had popped out of joint after the surgery, requiring physical therapy. And she had bladder and bowel problems related to a lower-back spinal condition that might require more surgery.

“It’s like one thing gets fixed and the other thing goes out,” she said.

She still had some neurological symptoms, such as tingling in her hands and arms.

But her life after surgery is much better than it was before, she said.

Photo-happy grandparents Diagnose and treat learning need to change their view disability as early as possible Dear Abby: My husband and I have been married for three years and have two beautiful children. Shortly before our first child was born, my in-laws bought a new camera. They bring it along to every visit and constantly take pictures of all of us. Neither my husband nor I likes having our pictures taken. My in-laws have thousands of pictures of all of us already.

The biggest problem is they don’t have a relationship with their grandchildren because of this. They complain the kids “don’t like them.” They feel they should therefore visit more often, but in reality, these visits consist of nonstop photosnapping, and no quality time is spent with either of the children. How do I make this stop without causing problems? – Out Of Focus In

New York Dear Out Of Focus: A diplomatic approach would be to suggest to your inlaws they “shoot” only for a limited time when they visit – no longer than the first 10 minutes. Explain you realize the kids are growing and changing quickly, and you understand their desire to record all of it, but

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips the children need a deeper kind of interaction with their grandparents in order to form a positive bond with them. Then suggest some ways they can relate to the little ones after the camera is put away.

If they balk, tell them the reason their grandchildren don’t seem to like them is children need face-to-face and eye contact, and the camera has prevented it from happening. If they’re smart, they’ll listen.

Dear Abby: I’m a 43-yearold woman who has been in a relationship with a man I dated many years ago, “Charles.” When we reconnected three years ago, I had a dog, “Frosty.” One year into the relationship, Charles asked me to get rid of Frosty because he thinks dogs are unsanitary. I loved Frosty and kept him, but it caused all kinds of problems with my boyfriend.

When Charles and I moved in together three months ago, he insisted I get rid of Frosty and I caved

in. I miss my little friend so much it hurts. Memories of him are everywhere. I am able to get him back, but is it crazy I would jeopardize my relationship because I want to keep my dog? – In The

Doghouse Dear In The Doghouse: I don’t think it’s crazy, and I’m sure my animal-loving readers – who number in the millions – would agree with me. People bond with their pets to such an extent that in the event of a natural disaster, some of them refuse to be separated from their companions.

That Charles would insist you get rid of Frosty shows extreme insensitivity for your feelings, in addition to disregard for your beloved pet in whom you had a significant emotional investment.

Could Charles be jealous of the affection you have shown Frosty? Not knowing him, I can’t guess. But if you are forced to choose between the two of them, you seriously should consider choosing the dog.

Dear Dr. K: I think my son might have a learning disability. How can I tell if there really is a problem?

Dear Reader: Most kids have some difficulty in school at one time or another, and usually it’s nothing to worry about. Sometimes, though, it can be a sign of a learning disability.

“Learning disability” is a broad term that can cover different types of problems. A child with a learning disability might have a hard time receiving, organizing, remembering or using information.

The most common learning disability is trouble with reading. But some children might have trouble with math, with understanding the spoken word or with abstract ideas.

Here are some possible warning signs of learning disabilities in preschoolers and young children: Preschoolers (ages 3 to 4) • Late talking. Most kids start speaking in short phrases by 2 years. By age 3, most preschoolers have a vocabulary of 500 or more words, which they use to form three- or four-word sentences.

• Slow to learn words. Most kids are picking up and speaking single words by 15 to 18 months.

• Problems pronouncing

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff words. Preschoolers generally speak clearly enough for strangers to understand most of what they are saying.

• Trouble remembering colors, numbers or letters.

• Trouble following directions. Preschoolers can generally follow three-part commands.

• Difficulty talking and playing with children the same age.

Early school-age children (5 to 7 years) • Trouble connecting sounds with letters.

• Difficulty remembering everyday words.

• Continuing to reverse letters (such as b/d), flip over letters (m/w), or mix up letters and words. Reversing letters usually disappears by age 7.

• Having a hard time with basic math facts. By 5 years, most children can count five to 10 objects. By age 7, most can count to 100.

• Not being able to recall facts.

• Trouble learning new skills.

• Memorizing things more than understanding them.

• Poor coordination. By age 6 or 7, most children can hold a pencil well enough to copy letters correctly.

• Not making friends or being able to have social conversations.

Lots of children will show one or more of these signs and not have a learning disability. But if your child shows two or more warning signs that don’t improve over several months, talk with your child’s teacher. All public schools must evaluate children when a disability is known or suspected. Many psychologists and medical centers also offer testing.

Also talk with your child’s pediatrician. Some medical conditions (for example, a hearing problem, or epilepsy) can look like a learning disability. Your pediatrician can help get your child needed testing and help.

If a problem exists, it’s important to begin treatment promptly. You can’t “cure” a learning disability. But there are many ways to help a child with a learning disability to be successful.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

This week, we are looking at strong jump shifts. The opener bids one of a suit and responder makes a single jump in a new suit.

Responder shows 13-16 high-card points and either a one-suiter with an excellent suit (in principle, with a play for at most one loser opposite a low singleton), or a two-suiter with at least nine cards divided 5-plus - 4-plus in the responder’s suit and the opener’s suit.

In the old days, a strong jump shift promised some 1719 high-card points. This was not a good idea. First, a hand that strong almost never came up; and second, with that amount of power, responder did best to make a quiet response to learn as much as possible about the distribution and strength of his partner’s hand before naming the inal contract.

In today’s deal, responder’s second jump showed that his suit was completely solid.

North, after rebidding two notrump to ind out which handtype his partner had, used Blackwood before signing off in six hearts.

After West leads the club queen, how should South proceed?

Declarer is faced with three losers in his hand: one diamond and two clubs. He does not have time to play a diamond to establish a discard, because East would win with his ace and cash the club king. South must win with dummy’s club ace, play a heart to his ace, and take the three spade tricks, discarding his diamond loser. Then declarer gives up a club. In a moment, he ruffs his inal club with dummy’s heart eight and claims.
