Huntley shooting probe ongoing Police believe brothers’ deadly altercation was result of argument over living arrangements

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Police in Huntley are still trying to piece together events that led to the shooting death of 48-year-old Robert Grundei, but

they believe the deadly Memorial Day fight began over living arrangements.

Grundei was in Huntley from Coral Springs, Florida, to mourn the loss of his youngest brother, Brian, who drowned earlier this month

in Lake County, authorities said.

Robert Grundei and his older brother, 50-year-old Mark, on Monday began arguing over living arrangements. Mark Grundei lived with their 81-year-old mother, Alyce, at 11469 Morning Glory Lane

in Sun City. The house recently had sold, and Robert Grundei was going to live with Alyce, and Mark was going to leave, authorities said.

“From what it sounds like there was some sort of argument about that,” Huntley Deputy Police Chief

Michael Klunk said.

Police said at least five shots were fired. Robert Grundei was shot in the shoulder and head and later died from his injuries.

Curbing unhealthy habits Type 2 diabetes is becoming more common in kids, so pediatricians are emphasizing the importance of eating right

By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Adult-onset diabetes isn’t growing up. It is getting younger.

According to a recently released study in the Journal of the American Medical Association, Type 2 diabetes increased by more than 30 percent in children between 2000 and 2009, raising the frequency of the disease to 0.46 per 1,000 children. The study showed more than 20,000 people younger than 20 had Type 2 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes, which occurs when the body does not make sufficient insulin or becomes resistant to it, has historically been linked to overweight and obese adults. But Dr. Laura Buthod, a pediatrician with Centegra Health System, said she is seeing the dangers that lead to the disease more often and earlier in children.

“A third of the children that walk through my office now are overweight or obese,” Buthod said. “And we’re starting to see it more and more in

Memories sprout as planting season begins Planting season always brings my thoughts back to the old homestead along Draper Road.

There, my mother would plant what to my young eyes seemed to be the biggest garden ever to be planted by someone not growing crops commercially.

Maybe the fact that I had to have a hand in weeding said garden made it grow exponentially in my mind. It might also explain my enduring lovehate relationship with digging in the dirt.

Mom’s garden was about a half-acre in size, with a variety of vegetables from year to year that makes the adult me envious. Tomatoes, green peppers, string beans, snap peas, sweet corn, squash, onions, potatoes, you name it.

She even had strawberries and rhubarb. Oh, the delicious pies she’d make with those.

One year she tried to grow kohlrabi, though to this day I swear she had

VIEWS Joan Oliver no idea how to prepare it. That might explain why I’m still leery of the stuff.

If nothing else, growing up around Mom’s massive garden made me realize just how much better homegrown vegetables are from the store-bought kind.

My mother would start most things from seed, in soil freshly tilled by my father. The garden was big enough that Dad bought a small tractor with a rototiller attachment to do the job.

In the wintertime, the tractor was outfitted with a plow to handle our long driveway. Come to think of it, I’m grateful my younger brother and I never had to tackle digging out the driveway ourselves.

We did, however, have to work in

that gargantuan garden. Someone had to weed that thing.

Being kids, my brother and I would do everything in our power to avoid the task. That, unfortunately, never was an option.

If we wanted to play, we had to get the chores out of the way first.

Being kids, we found a way to incorporate a little fun into the tedium.

Imagination and creativity were the orders of the day. A little competition never hurt, either.

We’d have contests for who could weed a row of corn fastest, who could collect the most potato bugs off the plants, who could collect the most dandelions, etc.

Most of the time it didn’t really matter who would win; it was just a way to make that dreaded chore go a little faster.

Of course, we’d also have to get creative when we’d have a little “accident” with a hoe, such as lopping off

NEWSROOM 815-459-4122 Fax: 815-459-5640 tips@nwherald.com

a young corn plant right at the stem.

Oops.

What to do? Just stick it back into the ground and it’ll regrow roots, right?

It seemed like a good plan at the time. Sadly, it never did work.

No doubt Mom was on to us, but I don’t recall her ever saying anything about it.

Maybe she was just happy to have a little help out there, no matter how half-hearted.

These days, I still can’t bring myself to plant vegetables, in part because I know how much work goes into them.

I do have a potted basil plant. Does that count?

Well, I suppose it’s a start.

Cary-Grove’s Caroline Zasadil looks out of the dugout during a rain delay April 18 at a home game against Huntley. Rain suspended the game in the bottom of the fifth inning with the score tied, 1-1.

What to know about hurricane season Starting this hurricane season, forecasters at the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami will begin dropping small drones into storms in the hope they can learn more about how storms strengthen and better predict a storm’s intensity.

With the season’s official start just days away, here are five other things to know about hurricanes:

1. Slow season expected Federal forecasters are expecting a slower-than-usual Atlantic hurricane season, with eight to 13 tropical

storms and three to six hurricanes.

There’s no way to tell whether any of those potential storms will strike the U.S. coastline during the sixmonth season that starts June 1.

2. El Nino The weather phenomenon known as El Nino, which warms part of the Pacific every few years and changes rain and temperature patterns around the world, is expected to suppress the number and intensity of tropical storms and hurricanes this year.

Cooler temperatures on the surface of the Atlantic Ocean

compared with recent years will also lower the probability of hurricane formation.

3. When does the hurricane get a name?

Forecasters name tropical storms when top winds reach 39 mph; hurricanes have minimum winds of at least 74 mph. The first storm name on the list this year is Arthur.

4. Storm surge Storm surge – the dangerous water rise created by tropical storms – is one of the deadliest and most damaging tropical storm hazards.

This year, the National

Buy or Refi...

Hurricane Center will post color-coded maps to show coastal residents how far from the shoreline the water will spread and how high that water will rise.

5. A little bit of history It’s been 10 years since the historic 2004 hurricane season, when four hurricanes affected Florida for the first time since record-keeping began: Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne.

There were 15 named storms that season, nine of which were hurricanes.

But those four hurricanes remain among the costliest hurricanes to hit the U.S.

8STATE BRIEFS Prosecutor plans closing arguments in murder trial ROCK ISLAND – Prosecutors said Tuesday that they plan to present their closing arguments later this week in the murder trial of a man accused in the 2008 beating deaths of four people in northwest Illinois.

Nicholas Sheley is on trial in the slayings of two men, a woman and a toddler who were beaten to death with a hammer in a Rock Falls apartment in June 2008.

Their slayings are among eight that authorities say Sheley committed in Illinois and Missouri over seven days.

Defense attorney Jeremy Karlin has said he doesn’t expect to call any witnesses on Sheley’s behalf.

Assistant Attorney General Steve Nate, who is prosecuting Sheley, said he plans to offer final arguments Thursday after he calls his last witnesses.

Disgraced Illinois judge to begin prison term BELLEVILLE – A disgraced former Illinois drug court judge at the center of a courthouse drug scandal is scheduled to begin serving a two-year sentence on heroin and gun convictions.

Online court records show Michael Cook must surrender by Wednesday to the lockup that the Federal Bureau of Prisons slots for him. The location isn’t made public until a defendant actual reports to begin serving their sentence.

The 43-year-old pleaded guilty in November to a misdemeanor heroin possession charge and a felony count of having firearms while being a user of controlled substances.

He was sentenced in March.

Cook resigned after he was charged last year, about two months after the March 2013 cocaine overdose death of fellow judge Joe Christ. Christ died while the two were at the Cook family’s Illinois hunting cabin.

Woman enters plea in 5-year-old child’s death WAUKEGAN – A Highland Park woman has pleaded guilty to a reckless homicide charge in the death of a 5-year-old girl.

Carly Rousso of Highland Park entered the plea on Tuesday.

The 19-year-old still faces a bench trial in Lake County court on a count of aggravated driving under the influence.

Rousso is accused of driving onto a sidewalk and killing Jaclyn Santos-Sacramento after inhaling computer dust cleaner in September 2012. The girl’s mother and two infant brothers were injured but survived.

Rousso’s attorney has argued that the chemical found in computer cleaner isn’t illegal in Illinois.

Prosecutors say the chemical was found in Rousso’s blood shortly after the crash.

House advances scaled-back 2015 budget $35.7 billion plan heads to Senate for vote

By KERRY LESTER and SARA BURNETT The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Having given up on extending Illinois’ temporary income tax increase – at least for now – the Illinois Legislature is moving forward with a scaled-back budget that could lead to layoffs, further delays in paying the state’s bills and a post-election vote to make the tax hike permanent or generate some other source of revenue.

The House on Tuesday approved the approximately $35.7 billion 2015 spending plan, which key Democrats acknowledge relies on some of the same practices that got Illinois into financial trou-

Mayor proposes strict rules for gun stores

By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press CHICAGO – Mayor Rahm Emanuel proposed an ordinance Tuesday strictly limiting where and how once-banned gun stores can operate in Chicago, and simultaneously released a report blaming out-of-city gun sales for much of the deadliest street-level violence.

If the City Council passes the ordinance as is, it would, among other things, prohibit gun shops in 99.5 percent of Chicago. Stores would have to video record all transactions and they couldn’t sell more than one handgun to a given buyer per month.

The flurry of activity on the gun issue comes ahead of a deadline set by a federal court, which ruled in January that the city’s outright ban on gun stores was unconstitutional. It gave the city until July 14 to have gun-store rules in place.

“There is no question it will be the smartest, toughest regulation on gun stores in the country,” Janey Rountree, the mayor’s deputy chief of staff for public safety, told the Chicago Sun-Times. “It’s designed to prevent gun trafficking and illegal sales in these stores.”

But Richard Pearson, executive director of the Illinois State Rifle Association, said the provisions, including one that would let police inspect gun-store records, seemed geared more toward dissuading anyone from actually opening a gun shop in Chicago.

“They are totally unreasonable,” he said about the regulations. With higher taxes than in other cities and with other drawbacks to doing business, he added, “I don’t know why anyone

“There is no question it will be the smartest, toughest regulation on gun stores in the country. It’s designed to prevent gun trafficking and illegal sales in these stores.”

Janey Rountree Chicago mayor’s deputy chief of staff for public safety

would want to start a gun store in Chicago.”

The new 15-page report from the city argues that a chief cause of gun violence in the nation’s third-largest city is its central location and that so many illegal guns purchased elsewhere end up in Chicago.

Nearly 60 percent of guns used to commit crimes in Chicago between 2009 and 2013 were first bought in states with less stringent gun regulations, the city’s report says, adding that in most other states, the majority of guns used in crimes were bought in-state.

“If the supply and access to illegal guns is reduced, Chicago’s murder rate will likely drop,” it argues.

Pearson disputed that. He said the underlying causes of violence were flagging economic growth, too few jobs and criminals who have profited from Chicago’s restrictions on guns.

“You have created a black market for guns and drugs, and then you are surprised by the violence?” he said.

The report also points the finger at a handful of dealers who operate just outside of Chicago borders.

Sen. Heather Steans, a Chicago Democrat and a lead budget negotiator.

The plan now goes to the Senate, where it’s expected to be approved before the Democrat-controlled Legislature must adjourn for the session on Saturday.

Lawmakers drafted the plan after House Speaker Mi-

chael Madigan announced his chamber had given up on extending a temporary income tax increase that Democrats approved in 2011.

The increase – which cost the typical taxpayer $1,100 last year – is set to roll back from 5 percent to 3.75 percent for individuals on Jan. 1.

That will lead to a $1.8 billion drop in revenue next year.

Madigan, Gov. Pat Quinn and Senate President John Cullerton all were pushing to make the higher rate permanent, but Democrats in the House – where all members are up for re-election in November – couldn’t garner enough “yes” votes.

The chamber last week also overwhelmingly rejected a so-called doomsday budget that would have cut funding to schools and other areas.

Quinn’s office called the spending plan that advanced Tuesday “incomplete.”

“The budget doesn’t avoid the tough decisions. It just

postpones them,” said his spokeswoman, Brooke Anderson.

The budget keeps funding for education and most state agencies flat next year. Without money for increased costs, lawmakers said it’s likely that agencies such as human services, corrections and Illinois State Police will have to lay off staff.

Anders Lindall, a spokesman for the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, said the budget would “force a cascade of negative consequences,” including possible facility closures.

Illinois’ backlog of unpaid bill also is expected to grow as the state puts off paying its vendors, particularly those that provide health care to state employees.

That backlog was at $4.7 billion earlier this month, according to the comptroller’s office. That’s down from nearly $10 billion four years ago.

House approves proposal to separate Lincoln library

By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum could “chart its own destiny” by becoming a separate state agency under a plan the Illinois House approved Tuesday.

The proposal by House Speaker Michael Madigan moves to the Senate – with just three days left in the legislative session – after House endorsement on a vote of 8429.

The initiative to split the world-renowned institution from oversight by the Illinois

Historic Preservation Agency came a day after the Democratic speaker from Chicago denied that his friendship with the institution’s executive director plays a role in his effort.

Instead, Madigan and Steven Beckett, the chairman of the institution’s advisory board, say the library and museum is hamstrung in areas such as hiring experts and deciding themes and exhibits because it needs approval from the Historic Preservation Agency, which has a different mission.

“My goal is to put this institution in a position to chart its own destiny, not to

ave S

have to check in with another board,” Madigan said.

As the House moved forward with a less ambitious state budget plan because it couldn’t gather support for extending a temporary income tax increase beyond January, the preservation agency came out on the short end. One of the House-approved pieces of budget legislation would cut the agency’s budget by $883,000.

Spokesman Steve Brown said the cut was not connected to any Madigan dissatisfaction with the preservation agency, but that many state agencies must weather spending cuts.

Obama offers Afghanistan troop withdrawal plan

By JULIE PACE The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Charting an end to America’s longest war, President Barack Obama announced plans Tuesday for keeping nearly 10,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan after this year but then withdrawing virtually all by the close of 2016 and the conclusion of his presidency.

The drawdown would allow Obama to bring America’s military engagement in Afghanistan to an end while seeking to protect the gains made in a war in which he significantly intensified U.S. involvement.

“We have to recognize that Afghanistan will not be a perfect place, and it is not America’s responsibility to make it one,” Obama declared during an appearance in the White House Rose Garden.

He credited American forces, which were first deployed

by President George W. Bush within a month of the Sept.

11, 2001, attacks, with striking significant blows against al-Qaida’s leadership, eliminating Osama bin Laden and preventing Afghanistan from

“We have to recognize that Afghanistan will not be a perfect place, and it is not America’s responsibility to make it one.”

President Barack Obama being used as a base for strikes against the U.S. He said: “Now we’re finishing the job we’ve started.”

The drawdown blueprint is contingent on Afghanistan’s government signing a stalled bilateral security agreement.

While current Afghan President Hamid Karzai has refused to sign the accord, U.S. officials say they’re confident that either of the candidates running to replace him will finalize the deal.

In fact, both candidates who are on the ballot in next month’s runoff – former Foreign Minister Abdullah Abdullah and ex-Finance Minister Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai – welcomed Obama’s announcement Tuesday.

The size and scope of the residual U.S. force largely

President Barack Obama speaking Sunday during a troop rally after arriving at Bagram Air Field for an unannounced visit, north of Kabul, Afghanistan. Senior U.S. administration officials say Obama will seek to keep 9,800 U.S. troops in Afghanistan after the war formally ends later this year. Nearly all of those forces are to be out by the end of 2016, as Obama finishes his second term. mirrors what Pentagon officials had sought, which appeared to give Obama cover with some Republicans, including House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. But some of

president’s harshest critics on foreign policy – Sens. John McCain of Arizona, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire – called the deci-

sion short-sighted and warned that it would embolden enemies.

“The president’s decision to set an arbitrary date for the full withdrawal of U.S. troops

in Afghanistan is a monumental mistake and a triumph of politics over strategy,” the three Republicans said in a joint statement.

U.S. forces had already been on track to stop combat operations in Afghanistan by the end of 2014, more than 13 years after the American-led invasion. But Obama wants to keep some troops there to train Afghan security forces, launch counterterrorism missions and protect progress made in a war that has left at least 2,181 Americans dead and thousands more wounded.

There are currently about 32,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan. Under Obama’s plan, that number would be reduced to 9,800 by the start of 2015, dispatched throughout Afghanistan.

Over the course of next year, the number would be cut in half and consolidated in the capital of Kabul and at Bagram Air Field, the main U.S. base in Afghanistan. Those remaining forces would largely be withdrawn by the end of 2016, with fewer than 1,000 remaining to staff a security office in Kabul.

Officials knew about efforts to High court rules for low-IQ inmates disguise VA’s treatment delays Intelligence scores not enough to determine death row eligibility

By MARK SHERMAN The Associated Press

By PAULINE JELINEK WASHINGTON – Twelve years after barring execution of the mentally disabled, the Supreme Court on Tuesday prohibited states in borderline cases from relying only on intelligence test scores to determine whether a death row inmate is eligible to be executed.

In a 5-4 decision that split the court’s liberal and conservative justices, the court said that Florida and a handful of other states must look beyond IQ scores when inmates test

WASHINGTON – Fake appointments, unofficial logs kept on the sly and appointments made without telling the patient are among tricks used to disguise delays in seeing and treating veterans at Veterans Affairs hospitals and clinics.

They’re not a new phenomenon. VA officials, veteran service organizations and members of Congress have known about them for years.

The “gaming strategies” were used to make it appear veterans were getting appointments within target times set by the department, according to a 2010 department memo to VA facility managers aimed at fighting the practices.

The memo from William Schoenhard, then the VA’s deputy undersecretary for health operations and management, said that when a medical appointment wasn’t available within the 30-day target time then used by VA, some schedulers would: • Make a fake appointment within the 30-day period but not tell the patient. The appointment would be canceled later and a new appointment would be made to meet a new 30-day target.

• Note on a paper log the actual distant date of an appointment, but not enter it into computer until within 30 days of the date.

• Give the patient an appointment at whatever date was next available, but log it in the computer as the date the veteran had asked for.

8NATION BRIEF Firefighters attack Central California blaze FRESNO, Calif. – Firefighters swarmed to the Central California foothills on Tuesday, attacking a blaze that had grown to cover two square miles in two days.

Officials urged some residents east of Lake McClure in Mariposa County to leave their homes, as fire crews work to tamp down the flames before they grow too large to handle.

In an extreme dry year like this, state fire spokesman Daniel Berlant said, they are attacking it from all angles.

“We’re fighting this fire not only on the ground but also in the air, helping to slow this thing down,” Berlant said.

More than 500 firefighters battling the blaze on the ground had the fire 20 percent contained, Berlant said.

The Phoenix VA Health Care Center is seen April 28 in Phoenix. Fake appointments, unofficial logs kept on the sly and appointments made without telling the patient are among tricks used to disguise delays in seeing and treating veterans at Veterans Affairs hospitals and clinics. memo ordered the practices stopped and instructed managers on how to detect them.

Then he added: “Please be cautioned ... additional new or modified gaming strategies may have emerged, so do not consider this list a full description of all current possibilities of ... practices that need to be addressed.”

Or as Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., put it at hearing this month: “As soon as new directives are put out, they’re torn apart to find out how to get around the requirements.”

“Cooking the books” at VA hospitals has exploded into public view since allegations arose that up to 40 patients may have died at the Phoenix VA hospital while awaiting care.

The department’s inspector general said he’s found no evidence so far that any of those deaths were caused by delays.

He’s widened his office’s probe to include 26 VA centers but

hasn’t specified just what is being investigated at the newly added locations.

There are some 1,700 VA health facilities nationwide, including hospitals, clinics and residential rehabilitation centers. Investigators are now trying to determine how widespread is the practice of falsifying records. But the fact it is a problem has been detailed in VA inspector general reports and Government Accountability Office reports to Congress going back a decade.

The 2010 Schoenhard memo cited practices identified by a task force monitoring access to care.

“We have worked very hard ... to root out these inappropriate uses of the scheduling system and these abuses,” VA’s Robert Petzel testified at a Senate hearing this month.

“This has been a very important thing to us for at least the last four years.”

Kennedy said the finality of capital punishment requires giving inmates the chance to present evidence of mental disability in borderline cases.

At most, eight other states employ a similar cutoff of 70, Kennedy said. He listed those states as: Alabama, Arizona, Delaware, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, Virginia and Washington.

A score of 70 is widely accepted as a marker of mental disability, but medical professionals say people who score as high as 75 can be considered intellectually disabled because of the test’s margin of error.

Fighting intensifies in Ukraine Violent clashes between insurgents, government after election

By PETER LEONARD The Associated Press

adno=0277328

DONETSK, Ukraine – Dozens of dead insurgents lay piled in a van outside a morgue Tuesday, and a rebel said more were on the way.

Bomb disposal experts disarmed a mortar round lodged in a corpse. A wrecked and blood-soaked truck at the Donetsk airport showed the grisly aftermath of battle.

The fight for eastern Ukraine seems to have taken a ferocious turn, as both sides step up their attacks after the rebellious regions mostly boycotted a presidential election that delivered a decisive winner.

Following a day and night of the heaviest and most sustained assault by Ukrainian government forces to date, the pro-Russia separatist movement finds itself facing an emboldened and resolute national leadership.

With Sunday’s election of billionaire Petro Poroshenko to the presidency, Kiev has received grudging and tentatively positive diplomatic overtures from Russia.

Leaders of the 28 EU countries, meeting Tuesday in Brussels, said they expect Russia to cooperate with newly elected President Petro Poroshenko, winner of Sunday’s elections.

In a statement, the EU heads of state and government said Moscow should “use its leverage on the armed separatists to de-escalate the situation in eastern Ukraine.”

But with evidence that irregulars are continuing to pour into Ukraine from Russia, it remains unclear whether the Kremlin is encouraging fighters whose attack Monday on the Donetsk International Airport showed their increasing aggression.

What is certain is that the Ukrainian government’s an-

Firefighters work at a burned ice hockey arena Tuesday in Donetsk, Ukraine. Early Tuesday, a group of unidentified men stormed Donetsk’s main ice hockey arena, which was to host the 2015 world championships and set it ablaze, according to the mayor’s office. ti-insurgent operation has been kicked into a higher a gear, with the military unleashing fighter jets, helicopter gunships and heavy artillery.

Government opponents insist they have taken up arms to defend eastern Ukraine’s Russian-speaking population and have appealed to Moscow for assistance. Kiev condemns the insurgents as “terrorists” bent on tearing the country apart.

Donetsk Mayor Oleksandr Lukyanchenko said 40 people, including two civilians, were killed in fighting after government troops thwarted a rebel attempt to seize the airport, Ukraine’s second-largest.

The bodies of about 30 insurgents were brought Tuesday morning to the Kalinin Hospital morgue, said Leonid Baranov of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic. The fighters had

been wounded and were being transported to a hospital in a truck when it was shot up by government forces, he said.

Inside the morgue, bodies were stacked crudely in heaps. Some were missing limbs. Experts removed an unexploded mortar round that had embedded itself in one man’s abdomen.

Baranov said up to 100 rebels were probably killed in combat, but many bodies had not yet been recovered because they were in areas under government control. His death toll could not be independently confirmed.

“As they are controlling the airport and the fight was there ... we cannot right now identify exactly how many victims we have,” he said, adding that hundreds were also wounded.

A bloody flatbed truck stood wrecked outside the airport, with body parts and

teeth strewn around it. Rebels said it had been fired upon by a helicopter.

After being squeezed out of the airport following hours of intense fighting, insurgents called in several hundred reinforcements. Many were from a unit calling itself the Vostok – or East – Battalion, which Donetsk People’s Republic representatives have said includes combatants from Russia’s North Caucasus.

Later, Ukrainian forces pounded rebel positions, forcing the fighters to retreat in disarray. One overturned truck down the road from the airport showed signs of having struck a tree at high speed.

In an emergency televised address Tuesday, the Donetsk mayor warned residents to stay indoors but also gave assurances that government troops would not push into the city center.

LAHORE, Pakistan – A pregnant woman was stoned to death Tuesday by her own family outside a courthouse in the Pakistani city of Lahore for marrying the man she loved.

The woman was killed while on her way to court to contest an abduction case her family had filed against her husband. Her father was promptly arrested on murder charges, police investigator Rana Mujahid said, adding that police were working to apprehend all those who participated in this “heinous crime.”

Arranged marriages are the norm among conservative Pakistanis, and hundreds of women are murdered every year in so-called

honor killings carried out by husbands or relatives as a punishment for alleged adultery or other illicit sexual behavior.

Stonings in public settings, however, are extremely rare. Tuesday’s attack took place in front of a crowd of onlookers in broad daylight. The courthouse is located on a main downtown thoroughfare.

A police officer, Naseem Butt, identified the slain woman as Farzana Parveen, 25, and said she had married Mohammad Iqbal, 45, against her family’s wishes after being engaged to him for years.

Her father, Mohammad Azeem, had filed an abduction case against Iqbal, which the couple was contesting, said her lawyer, Mustafa Kharal. He said she was three months pregnant.

Malaysia releases jet data

By CHRIS BRUMMITT and EILEEN NG The Associated Press KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia – Close to three months after the Malaysian jetliner disappeared, the government on Tuesday released reams of raw satellite data it used to determine that the flight ended in the southern Indian Ocean, a step long demanded by the families of some of the passengers on board.

But while the 45 pages of information may help satisfy a desire for more transparency in a much criticized investigation, experts say it’s unlikely to solve the mystery of Flight 370 – or give much comfort to relatives stuck between grieving and the faint-

est hope, no matter how unlikely, their loved ones might still be alive.

“It’s a whole lot of stuff that is not very important to know,” said Michael Exner, a satellite engineer who has been independently researching the calculations.

“There are probably two or three pages of important stuff, the rest is just noise. It doesn’t add any value to our understanding.”

The release of the information came as the underwater hunt for the jet is poised to pause until later in the summer while new, powerful sonar equipment is obtained, a sign of how difficult it will be to locate the jet and discover how it went missing with 239 people on board.

Huntley police cars are seen at the scene Monday at 11469 Morning Glory Lane in Huntley. One man was killed and two people were injured after a shooting occurred, according to the Huntley Police Chief John Perkins.

Alyce Grundei made call to police at around 5 p.m.

• SHOOTING Continued from page A1 Mark Grundei sustained a gunshot wound to the head that was believed to be self-inflicted. He remains in critical condition at Advocate Sherman Hospital.

An autopsy for Robert Grundei is scheduled for Wednesday morning in Kane County.

Just after 5 p.m. Monday, Alyce Grundei called police saying that she had been shot, and that shots were still being fired. She suffered a graze wound from a bullet and was treated and released at the hospital.

Alyce met officers outside her home and was holding the .38 caliber revolver when police arrived. She told them her two sons were inside and had been shot.

Mark Grundei is believed to be the shooter, though no charges have been filed and authorities said the investigation is ongoing. He purchased the weapon in 2005 and had a valid firearm owners identification card, Klunk said.

The only other police contact at the 11469 Morning Glory Lane home was on May 16, when Lake County asked Huntley officers to deliver news that Brian Grundei had died, Klunk said.

Neighbors on Tuesday said the cul-de-sac street of Sun City Huntley is typically quiet and were shocked by Monday’s violence.

A woman who didn’t want to be identified but lives across the street from the Grundeis said she didn’t notice any disturbance Monday night until she heard the sirens and the police rang her doorbell.

“It’s especially bad for Alyce because she lost her husband a few years ago. I understand she lost another son not too long ago,” said the neighbor, who only knows the family casually.

“It’s a terrible tragedy.”

This is the second violent death in recent years in Sun City, a neighborhood marketed to retired seniors. Robert Signorile is serving a 40-year prison sentence for the 2012 murder of his girlfriend, Michelle Mathieu.

Metra’s executive directors mired in scandals as of late • METRA Continued from page A1 Munaretto said his priority if appointed will be to push to find financing for much-needed infrastructure improvements and expanding service to McHenry County, which is served by the Union Pacific Northwest line.

“I have some very specific ideas about things I would like to evaluate through [Metra] staff ... that might help Metra find sources of funds that could provide services that it doesn’t provide,” Munaretto said.

Munaretto said he did not want to dwell on the high-profile scandals that have surrounded Metra’s executive directors in recent years and resulted in a number of resignations from the Metra Board.

“Metra has had some issues in the past, and I think that chapter in its existence, I hope, is over,” Munaretto said.

The Metra Board in 2013 approved a generous exit package for new CEO Alex Clifford, worth up to $718,000, with eight months remaining on his first contract. When pressed by angry state lawmakers, Clifford alleged he was forced out because he would not play along with patronage requests made by several Metra Board members at the behest of cloutheavy lawmakers.

Clifford had been hired to help clean up Metra in the wake of the scandal surrounding former CEO Phil Pagano,

who killed himself in 2010 near his rural Crystal Lake home by stepping in front of a Metra train hours before the Metra Board was set to fire him for collecting $475,000 in unauthorized vacation payouts and other fiscal irregularities.

Munaretto served on the County Board for 14 years before deciding in 2012 not to run for re-election. He served for two decades as Algonquin Township Clerk until last year, when he unsuccessfully ran for township supervisor against incumbent Dianne Klemm.

The Metra Board pays $15,000 a year, but new appointees are no longer eligible for pension or insurance benefits as a result of reform bills that passed in the wake of the Pagano and Clifford scandals.

Hill last year nominated former County Board member Blake Hobson to replace former GOP power broker Al Jourdan as McHenry County’s representative on the Regional Transportation Authority Board. The County Board approved Hobson on a 22-0 vote.

The County Board on June 3 also will vote to reappoint Crystal Lake Mayor Aaron Shepley to another term on the Pace Board, which oversees suburban bus service. Shepley was the only person to apply – state law requires Pace Board members to be either a current mayor or village president in the area they represent, or a former mayor or village president residing in the area.

“Ask any adult how tough it is to incorporate activity and eating right into the daily routine and they will tell you it is very difficult. We know it’s tough, but it’s important.”

Dr. Daniel So, director of the diabetes department at Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital, said one of the biggest challenges is getting the community to respond to the services offered through hos-

pitals and schools.

He said Advocate offers a number of programs to promote weight loss and healthy eating, but they are rarely well attended.

“We have very active programs to educate young people about how to eat right, how to exercise, how to shop correctly. Those things are available,” he said. “The sad thing is attendance is so low.

The programs are available but now we need the response to be better.”

One program that has

caught on is the CATCH program – or Coordinated Access to Community Health – aimed at promoting healthy eating and physical activity for elementary and middle school students.

Meaghan Haak, health promotion coordinator for the McHenry County Department of Health, said the program started with two schools in District 200 in 2006 before expanding to the 35 elementary and middle schools and eight preschools it now serves in McHenry County.

The changes in habits are starting to become evident in children and parents, Haak said.

“When we first started getting away from cupcakes for birthday parties at schools we would get a lot of negative feedback from parents but that has changed,” Haak said. “We’re seeing a huge difference in the food kids are choosing and the birthday treats they bring. We’re making progress.”

‘Summer?

No sweat’ With an oppressive winter behind us, McHenry County residents are ready for the glorious days of summer.

The Memorial Day holiday weekend brought temperatures in the high 80s. We doubt too many folks complained it was too hot, though.

That said, it would be wise to keep summer safety in mind.

Yes, it’s true For the record that we got through that “poIt’s not officially summer yet, lar vortex” thing, but summer-like temperatures but surviving the and activities are here. Enjoy it, “solar vortex” – but be safe. summer – takes some doing, too.

The Illinois Department of Public Health has put out a 42-page summer survival guide, available online, that lists as many summer hazards as its experts could find, and how to avoid them.

“Summer? No Sweat” takes the reader through how to be safe when swimming at the beach or pool, bicycling, boating, water skiing, and operating a jet ski.

Summer health hazards are discussed, such as sun exposure, heat-related conditions, home canning, food poisoning, rabies, mosquitoes, ticks, and stings from bees, wasps and hornets.

Don’t forget severe weather. Emergency preparedness measures are detailed, along with how to react when tornadoes or floods threaten.

For those who care for lawns and gardens, the guide deals with hazards posed by lawn mowers, string trimmers and hedge trimmers.

Summer and poison ivy, unfortunately, are synonymous. The guide reviews poisonous plants found in wooded areas and fields, mushrooms, trees, ornamentals, as well as plants around the house, flower garden and vegetable garden.

The guide is filled with information and useful warnings, which should be taken to heart.

Summer doesn’t officially arrive until June 21. But summer-like temperatures and activities are already here.

We encourage area residents to embrace safety in all their summer pursuits.

VA health care mess No wonder so many veterans of military service have lost all faith in promises made by the government they defended. Decades of broken pledges and now, a deluge of reports of immoral, perhaps criminal behavior in the Veterans Administration are to blame.

A few weeks ago, a whistleblower accused VA health care officials in Phoenix, Arizona, of keeping veterans on waiting lists so long some died before they could be treated. There were efforts to cover up what happened, it was alleged.

Now reports of similar misdeeds have come in from VA health care facilities in several other states.

President Barack Obama’s reaction was political in the extreme. He appointed White House Deputy Chief of Staff Rob Nabors – a political operative – to oversee a review of the VA. Obama either just doesn’t get it or doesn’t really care. Why on earth would veterans – and the tens of millions of Americans who revere them – expect anything more than a whitewash from such a review?

Members of Congress of both parties are angry about the allegations. They should channel that anger into a demand for a truly independent, bipartisan investigation of the VA. This is a mess that cannot and should not be covered up by the politicians.

Generous support

To the Editor: In January 2013, I was diagnosed with a disease that affects the blood going through the arteries of the lung, which also caused my heart to fail. On Oct. 2, 2013, I was admitted to the Mayo hospital in Minnesota. On Jan. 10, 2014, I had heart and double lung transplant. I spent 135 days in the hospital and another 2 3/4 months in outpatient treatment.

I came home on May 2, 2014, seven months to the day I left, to a street lined with red and yellow ribbons.

There are so many people I need to thank for their support. The Northwest Herald for writing a story on me back in February, bringing organ donation some exposure.

Fool me twice?

To the Editor: Democrats are pushing the Fair Tax amendment as the path to a tax decrease for more than 90 percent of households. But they’re ignoring an inconvenient truth that, for most people, income taxes would increase above the rate already written into state law for 2015.

Lawmakers want a constitutional amendment that would replace Illinois’ flat income tax with graduated rates tied to income brackets. But, by the law, the personal rate falls on Jan. 1 from 5 percent to 3.75 percent.

The proposed legislation to set rates in future years, taxpayers would pay 2.9 percent on income up to $12,500, then 4.9 percent

on income up to $180,000, and 6.9 percent on income above that.

The Democrats compare the 4.9 percent rate they want most households to pay to the 5 percent rate that all of us will pay through December 2014.

But remember, these rates would replace the flat 3.75 percent rate that’s already law for 2015. That 4.9 percent rate for 2015 is 30 percent higher than the 3.75 percent rate set for 2015.

In other words, instead of being able to keep more of your income next year when the “temporary” tax expires, you’d keep sending it to Springfield.

Democrats want to make permanent hefty increases in income tax rates; rates Democrats insisted would be “temporary” when they passed them in 2011.

If anybody says: “Almost all of you would pay less under our Fair Tax,” then it’s fair to ask: Is that a promise? Like the income tax increase you promised would be “temporary”?

It’s graduated rates, not fixed.

The Rich List and the West’s culture of envy, dependency BELFAST, Northern Ireland – In the 1970s, while working as a low-paid cub reporter in Houston, I always looked forward to the annual Christmas catalogs from Neiman-Marcus and Sakowitz, a local luxury department store. Both contained outrageously expensive things that only the super-rich could afford – his and hers Thunderbirds stick in my memory. My wife and I couldn’t wait to thumb through them and we frequently laughed at how much some of the items cost, wondering if even rich Texans would spend so extravagantly.

Another tribute to conspicuous wealth comes in the annual “Rich List,” a guide to the 1,000 richest men and women in Britain, published in a special edition of The Sunday Times Magazine. A fat feline sits proudly on the cover with the symbol of a British pound

(in gold) around its neck.

In addition to income rankings, the list is broken down by country and region. Most names will not be familiar to Americans, unless they read the business pages or engage in similar businesses or incomeproducing activities. One couple possibly familiar to many Americans – No. 2 among the wealthiest in Northern Ireland – are the actress and co-producer of TV’s “The Bible” and “Son of God,” Roma Downey, who is Irish, and her reality TV husband, the British-born Mark Burnett.

Apart from the fun of reading how much people are worth, the Times story accompanying the list promises the rankings “will create a combination of envy, admiration and mild outrage.” Still, it bears reading and can easily be applied to our modern Western culture of envy, greed and entitlement pro-

VIEWS Cal Thomas moted by President Barack Obama and Democrats.

Titled “Don’t beat the rich: just join them,” the Times writes: the list “is a picture of self-made millionaires and billionaires, many of whom have overcome educational disadvantages and personal setbacks – including poverty and the loss of a parent – to succeed. Most eschewed cozy normality, taking risks and putting their livelihoods on the line in their determination to succeed.”

With an estimated 47 million Americans on food stamps and others receiving other kinds of government assistance, with President Obama and his fellow

liberal Democrats preaching a false financial gospel aimed at penalizing the wealthy and the successful, could it be, as another Times article asserts, “...western democracy is on its last legs, crushed under the weight of a bloated state”? The story suggests the West “look east, where the Asian model – minimal welfare, restricted rights – is producing the world’s most successful societies.”

What amazes me is that Western values and a work ethic that created so many rich and successful people, who did not settle for the circumstances into which they were born, have been ceded to the welfare state. In Asia, individuals and some nations – notably Singapore – have adopted the West’s former standards, creating unprecedented prosperity.

In Britain and America, just a few generations ago, those who

came by their wealth and success honestly and through hard work were idolized and emulated. The attitude shared by those who began life in modest circumstances, was, “if they can do it, so can I.” Today, we appear to punish success and treat successful people and those independent of government as enemies who have stolen from what rightfully belongs to others.

The “Rich List” is fun to read, but the stories behind their wealth ought to be a lesson to people living in free societies. That lesson is that while not all can necessarily become as rich as these men and women, by adopting their work ethic they can improve their lives far beyond their current place on the economic ladder, to their benefit and to the benefit of their nation.

MAN CHARGED WITH DEALING MARIJUANA CARY – A 19-year-old Cary man was arrested on drug charges after police said they found about 80 grams of marijuana packaged for resale, marijuana oil, drug paraphernalia and packaging materials in the car he was driving.

Kyle R. Opfer, 19, of Cary was charged with unlawful delivery of marijuana, a Class 3 felony; possession of marijuana, a Class 4 felony; and possession of drug paraphernalia, a Class A misdemeanor. The Intelligence Led Policing Unit conducted a traffic stop on the 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer about 6:30 p.m. May 23 in the area of Silver Lake Road and James Way in Cary, according to a news release.

Police said a K-9 unit searched the car and discovered the marijuana and other items. McHenry County Sheriff Keith Nygren estimated the street value of the drugs at $900. The vehicle also was seized. Opfer was released from McHenry County Jail on a $10,000 bond.

County Board’s size at issue Democrats to campaign on plan to reduce number of members

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com “Democrats for smaller government” may sound to Republicans like an oxymoron, but shrinking the size of the McHenry County Board is going to be a key campaign issue for its Democratic candidates.

The Democratic Party of McHenry County announced that its slate intends to fight for a plan to reduce the cost

of county government and increase its accountability by reducing the number of members while increasing the number of districts. The County Board now consists of 24 members, who are elected to six districts of four members each.

“Dividing the county into more districts will help ensure that all parts of the county get the representation they deserve,” party Chairman Michael Bissett

said in a news release. “Reducing the number of members will save money, but it will also make each member more accountable to the voters.”

The initiative comes at a time when the sheer number of Illinois governments and their sizes have become an issue for tax-weary voters. It also comes after a shake-up put the leadership of the McHenry County Republican Party in the hands

of new members who have promised to turn the party and a legion of newly elected precinct committeemen into an aggressive get-out-thevote machine.

Two of the County Board’s 24 members are Democrats.

Both of them, Nick Chirikos in District 1 and Paula Yensen in District 5, are running for re-election.

PORT BARRINGTON – A fire left a Port Barrington home uninhabitable Tuesday afternoon.

The Wauconda Fire District responded at 3:43 p.m. to a single-story home at 120 Center St. in Port Barrington, Battalion Chief Kevin Pyne said. An occupant of the home called the fire in, and an off-duty firefighter who lived in the area reported light smoke showing from the home.

The first engine to arrive on the scene was able to get the fire under control in about 15 minutes, and subsequent crews assisted in clearing debris and extinguishing any remaining fire, Pyne said.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation, he said. Initial reports said the fire was in the water heater and utility room.

The house sustained a lot of smoke and heat damage but no structural damage, Pyne said.

The damage is estimated at $100,000.

The family was home, but no one was injured, he said.

The Wauconda department was assisted at the scene by the Lake Zurich, Nunda Rural, Barrington Countryside and Fox Lake fire departments. The Barrington and Grayslake departments covered Wauconda’s calls while it was at the scene.

Harvard graduates ready to follow their own path

By LINDSAY WEBER editorial@nwherald.com HARVARD – It’s a scene that those who know remember fondly, and those who have yet to experience look forward to.

Close family and friends crowd into a stuffy gym.

Some have flowers, others hold on to balloons that read words of congratulation like “hats off to the grad” and “best grad ever.” The flapping of programs can be heard with the wise words of Albert Einstein displayed on the cover: “Learn from yesterday, love for today, hope for tomorrow.”

Older brothers and sisters come home to send their younger siblings off into the world that they are no longer stranger to, reminiscing with former classmates and comparing their new and exciting post-high school lives.

It happened last year, it will

happen next year, but for the 2014 graduates of Harvard High School, it’s their one and only.

One hundred sixty-three seniors took their last march through the halls of Harvard High School on Tuesday evening and emerged alumni.

“This group of students is very interesting in that they’re much like a large

group of brothers and sisters,” Principal Rob Zielinski said. “They truly rely and depend on each other.”

Zielinski said the 2014 class overcame a lot as a group and is looking for what fits them as individuals as they move on to life after high school, not what fits the mold. They’re following their own paths and not

doing it for anyone else but themselves.

The evening included performances by the Harvard High School Advanced Choir and Concert Band and a commencement address co-led by faculty members Caren MacKenzie and Tim Haak.

“There weren’t any individual superstars in this class,” Zielinski said. “Everyone picked up a piece of their class’s success and did their part.”

Salutatorian Tate Miller did his part by finishing second in his class, presenting a light speech filled with a little humor, some shout outs and some advice. First and foremost, he thanked all those in attendance.

“You’ve made us who we are, and who we are not,” Miller said.

HARVARD – District 50 is hoping a push for instrument donations will help more kids pursue their musical interests.

District officials say schools do their best to provide equipment to kids who want to play an instrument but can’t afford to rent or buy one. But growing interest has meant the program has had to turn students away in recent years, said Korey Coffer, band director and music teacher at Harvard High School.

“It’s not a new need,” Coffer said. “But because the program is growing so fast, it’s just an additional need now.”

The district is accepting all donations but is particularly interested in wind instruments and drum kits.

Donated equipment will be spread throughout the program, which starts for students in fifth grade.

“If someone wants to target it to a specific school, they can, and we will do our best to honor that,” District 50 spokesman Bill Clow said. “But certain instruments we are using in the earlier grades.”

Coffer said a donation would go a long way toward allowing students to lay the platform for a lifelong interest in music.

“Music is one of those subjects that helps students in their reading skills, it helps students in their math skills,” he said. “It gives students an outlet that they might not get somewhere else.”

To make a donation, contact Coffer at Harvard High School by calling 815-943-6461 or Clow at the District 50 offices by calling 815-943-4022.

“Music is one of those subjects that helps students in their reading skills, it helps students in their math skills. It gives students an outlet that they might not get somewhere else.”

Family raising money for 1-year-old girl Child underwent heart transplant

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Danielle Bockman was suffering from a cold with a runny nose and low-grade fever, like most babies do.

But when she had that cold, her breathing was faster than usual, so her mother, Susan, took her to the doctor.

“I knew the way she was breathing, it just wasn’t

right,” said Susan Bockman, who is a nurse practitioner.

Tests showed Danielle’s heart was only pumping at 15 percent capacity, Susan Bockman said.

“Only a little bit of blood would come out of the heart,” she said.

Danielle only had a 30 percent chance of heart recovery and needed a transplant.

She went on the transplant list April 3. On May 13, Danielle received a new heart.

Now Danielle faces a lifetime of medical expenses

To donate To donate to Danielle Bockman’s Children’s Organ Transplant Association account, visit cotaforteamdanielleb.com. related to the transplant, and insurance will only cover so much.

So Danielle’s family is trying to raise money to help with the ongoing expenses.

The family has started a fundraising Web page through the Children’s Organ Transplant Association.

The money will go toward Danielle’s medical expenses during her life, such as anti-rejection medication, heart biopsies and possibly another transplant many years in the future.

“We’re collecting money that will be there for her throughout all these years,” Susan Bockman said.

Her child had contracted the parvovirus, which settled in her heart.

FOX LAKE: UPPER-MEDIUM GRADE DEBT

Updated credit ratings affirm Fox Lake’s financial position

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com FOX LAKE – Bonds the village of Fox Lake took out for street improvements and to pay off other debt received an “upper-medium” rating from a ratings agency.

Moody’s Investors Service gave the new bonds an A1 rating, the same rating the village’s other debt was given in 2011 and affirmed again this year.

The rating means the agency, which is one of the three main international ratings agencies, considers

The Bockman family was

the debt to be of an “upper-medium grade” and low risk to investors.

The village’s overall rating also was affirmed with the decision released Tuesday, keeping it an Aa3. That rating is higher than the A1 rating and means the agency considers the village to be a “very low credit risk.”

The rating balances the village’s healthy financial position and minimal debt with its modest tax base, which has depreciated over the last several years, and the tax cap, which limits its ability to raise taxes to cover its debts.

lucky, as a transplant came on May 13 – an early birthday present for Danielle, who turned 1 on Monday.

Danielle is still at the Lurie Children’s Hospital recovering. In 10 days to two weeks, she is expected to be moved to the Ronald McDon-

ald House as the next step in her recovery.

Susan Bockman said she expects to be able to bring her daughter home around July 4.

Even though the Lurie Children’s Hospital has a cardiac care unit, Danielle’s

situation is uncommon, Susan Bockman said.

But parents need to be vigilant.

“If something seems outside the usual, there’s a reason for it,” Susan Bockman said. “It needs to be looked into.”

Graduates of Harvard going in many different directions • HARVARD Continued from page B1 Miller made mention of classmates off to study in Hawaii and North Dakota, as well as boasted of their football team’s undefeated season, commending all of the seniors on their hard work throughout

the year.

“Our class didn’t let the countless hours of school take away from the party of life,” Miller said. “We’re not put here on this earth for a long time; we’re put here to have a good time.”

Miller was followed by class valedictorian Samantha Genz, who compared the classmates

she saw before her as the same unsure yet excited group she stood with in that very gym four years earlier at their eighth-grade graduation.

“Live a life that makes your town proud,” Genz said. “Do something for some time, for someone other than yourself.”

Zielinski said they have an unusually large number of

students joining the military post-graduation, as well as college-bound students attending universities across the United States. Zielinski said his advice may be that which has been heard before, but still holds true.

“Follow your dreams. Be a part of it all, and make an impact.”

Dems fought to reduce board’s size during redistricting • COUNTY BOARD Continued from page B1 Former board member Kathleen Bergan Schmidt is running in District 3, and the party after the March primary caucused in Arne Waltmire, a former high school teacher and dispute mediator, to run in District 4.

Both Bergan Schmidt and Yensen fought to reduce the County Board’s size during the redistricting process after the 2010 U.S. Census.

They were joined by a handful of Republicans in an unsuccessful effort to shrink the board to 10, two-member districts for a total of 20.

Chirikos was not elected until 2012.

Altering the County Board’s size and structure requires a voter referendum, except during the once-a-decade redistricting process.

While the McHenry County Board in 2011 rejected the change, three of its fellow collar counties took advantage of the redistricting process to do so. The Lake and Kane county boards each eliminated two board seats, bringing their totals to 21 for Lake County and 24 for Kane County, not including the board chairman.

But both moves were fueled in part by preparation for one day reaching 800,000 residents, when state law caps a county board’s maximum size at 18 members.

Only Cook and DuPage coun-

“County records show that a number of board members are chronically absent or late for meetings, yet the other members manage to get the work done without them. That’s a sign that we could get by with fewer members.”

Michael Bissett Democratic Party chairman ties have reached that limit.

The Will County Board completely overhauled its map in the name of increasing accountability. It kept a 26-member board, but went from three districts of nine members each to 13, two-member districts.

Another neighboring county board decided, like McHenry County’s, that it

liked things the way they are.

The DeKalb County Board during 2011 redistricting soundly rejected a proposal to shrink from 24 people representing two-member districts to 18 single-member districts.

McHenry County’s four-member districts are the largest of county boards in the Chicago metro area.

chairmanship popularly elected to four-year terms rather than elected from among the County Board’s membership after each November election. McHenry County voters will elect the County Board chairman starting in 2016.

The County Board has had 24 members since its creation in 1972, when the new Illinois Constitution abolished county boards of supervisors ruled by township officials. It consisted of three, eight-member districts until 1992, when it went to its present structure of six, four-member districts. A failed effort was made during the 1991 redistricting process to shrink the board’s size to 18 members.

Kane, Lake and Cook counties have single-member districts while the DuP age County Board has six, three-member districts.

Bissett said he expects to get bipartisan support for the initiative, and took a shot at some in the majority party to help make his point.

“County records show that a number of board members are chronically absent or late for meetings, yet the other members manage to get the work done without them,” Bissett said. “That’s a sign that we could get by with fewer members.”

Reform-oriented McHenry County Board members won a long-sought victory in March when voters approved a referendum to make the

GREENWOOD: AIRPORT OF THE YEAR AWARDS

ALGONQUIN: EVENTS OFFERED

Galt Field recognized by IDOT

Library prepares for reading program

NORTHWEST HERALD GREENWOOD – Galt Field was one of seven airports in the state recognized this year by the Illinois Department of Transportation.

Seven awards were presented by IDOT at the Illinois Aviation Conference, held earlier this month in Collinsville.

The airports were recog-

nized for their accomplishments throughout the year, outstanding partnership with the state and commitment to customer satisfaction, according to a news release.

Galt Field was recognized as the “Private – Open to the Public Airport of the Year.”

The award is given to airports that are privately owned and don’t rely on fed-

eral or state money to operate. These airports have to meet the same safety requirements as publicly owned airports.

“We are very proud of the commitment made to ensure the comfort and safety of Illinois travelers,” state Transportation Secretary Ann L. Schneider said. “These airports set the bar for excellence and we are happy to

partner with them to continue to advance aviation and further safe and efficient air travel throughout Illinois.”

The “Airport of the Year” awards are based on the airport’s staff cooperation and coordination with the Division of Aeronautics, the facility’s safety record, maintenance of the facility, and the promotion of seminars and aviation events.

2 p.m. Friday.

Area Dunkin’ Donuts participating in the event are located at: 2270 Randall Road, Carpentersville; 630 Northwest Highway, Cary; 4817 Northwest Highway, Crystal Lake; 892 S.

Randall Road, Lake in the Hills; 3523 Diamond Drive, McHenry; 4502 Elm St., McHenry; and 335 S. Eastwood Drive, Woodstock.

Those who donate will receive a free doughnut. Those who give at least $10 will receive a Law Enforcement Torch Run travel mug and a coupon for a free medium coffee.

Special Olympics Illinois T-shirts and hats also will be available for purchase.

More than 125 people from across the country are expected to participate in the tournament and raise more than $100,000, according to a news release.

The event will include celebrity appearances, live and silent auctions and an actual golf tournament, among other things, according to the news release.

Money raised at the event will benefit the Nikolas Ritschel Foundation in Rockford, which supports adolescent adults diagnosed with sarcoma, a rare form of cancer; Salute Inc. in Palatine, which helps meet the financial, physical and emotional needs of military service members, veterans and their families; and Starlight Children’s Foundation in Chicago, which helps with children’s health care needs in hospitals, the news release said.

The tournament is scheduled from June 5-8 at Nero’s Pizza & Pub at 300 Eastgate Court in Algonquin.

SWIFT CANCELS BANGKOK CONCERT AFTER COUP

THINGS

BANGKOK – Taylor Swift has canceled a sold-out concert in Thailand, which came under military rule last week after a coup d’etat. Concert promoter BEC-Tero announced Tuesday on its website that the concert was canceled “due to recent events in Thailand.” It didn’t elaborate but called the move “a difficult decision for all parties.” The concert in Bangkok would have been the night of June 9. The country is under a nighttime curfew though it’s loosely enforced.

“I’m sending my love to the fans in Thailand,” Swift tweeted. “I’m so sad about the concert being canceled.”

The American singer-songwriter has other performances throughout Asia during her current Red Tour.

BUZZWORTHY

Bradley Cooper, Kevin Bacon to be at Tony Awards NEW YORK – Broadway and Hollywood stars will help add some glamour to this year’s Tony Awards, with appearances expected by Bradley Cooper, Kevin Bacon, Clint Eastwood, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Will Ferrell and Liev Schreiber.

The producers of the June 8 telecast announced an eclectic mix of stars Tuesday. Some of those overlooked this season for Tony nominations that will present awards include Zachary Quinto, Zachary Levi, Leighton Meester and Ethan Hawke. Other presenters include Emmy Rossum, Kate Mara, Lucy Liu, Patricia Clarkson, Matt Bomer, Anna Gunn, Gloria Estefan, Fran Drescher, Wayne Brady, Carole King, Emilio Estefan, Tony Goldwyn, Vera Farmiga and Alessandro Nivola.

The Tony Awards will be broadcast from Radio City Music Hall on CBS. Hugh Jackman will host.

Rickles honored in Spike TV tribute NEW YORK – Don Rickles engages in what might be called Comedy S and M. He insults audience members (whether famous or unknown, each a hockey puck in his eyes) and they laugh and beg for more.

It’s a manic, lacerating style Rickles has commanded for a half-century plus.

Now he’s being feted by Spike TV with a 90-minute special, “One Night Only: An All-Star Comedy Tribute.” A black-tie affair taped earlier this month at Harlem’s storied Apollo Theater, it airs Wednesday at 8 p.m., packed with love and a healthy dose of bile.

“We wanted to honor your memory, Don, so here we are,” said Martin Scorsese, firing a zinger at the spirited but frail-looking Rickles seated stage-side – “though if I’d been directing this, I don’t think I would have gone for the open casket.”

Amy Poehler and Tina Fey deliver their own saucy slam at Rickles’ advanced age.

Fey: “It’s almost like he’s here with us. You can feel his spirit in this room tonight.”

Poehler: “Tina! He IS here.”

Fey (casting a startled look in Rickles’ direction): “I thought that was somebody’s purse.”

Other stars on hand include Jerry Seinfeld, Robert De Niro, Regis Philbin, Tracy Morgan, Brian Williams and Jon Stewart.

For those a little fuzzy on Rickles’ tongue-lashing past, the program includes clips of him filleting such luminaries as Johnny Carson, Clint Eastwood, Frank Sinatra, the Rev. Billy Graham and President Ronald Reagan.

There are also filmed tributes from Eddie Murphy, Bill Cosby, Jimmy Kimmel and, hilariously, Rickles’ longtime pal Bob Newhart.

Then, when the time comes for Rickles to speak, he doesn’t hold back.

“I’m so thrilled as I look around the room that I’m the biggest name here,” he begins.

But before he’s done, he’s gotten downright sentimental. “It was a kind, beautiful tribute, a great night,” Rickles said by phone a few days later, then went on to account for his trademark insult style: “It was in my personality, my attitude, ever since I was a kid.”

Spike’s Rickles tribute demonstrates he has multitudes on his side, and reminds the viewer why.

was named the highest-grossing actress of the decade by the Guinness Book of World Records. She earned a degree in English literature.

Bon Jovi guitarist to play at anti-drug forum TOMS RIVER, N.J. – Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora is planning to debut a new song at a New Jersey forum on drug abuse. The event is aimed at raising awareness about abuse of heroin and prescription painkillers along the Jersey shore.

The area, like many across the country, has seen a surge in addictions and related fatalities. Sambora grew up in northern New Jersey and once owned a home near the shore. He has acknowledged substance abuse problems in the past.

He is currently on leave from the band.

Cruise pushes ‘Edge of Tomorrow’ to its limits

Brown won’t discuss Emma Watson’s graduation guard PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Emma Watson had an undercover armed guard with her during graduation ceremonies at Brown University, and a university spokesman said he is unable to answer questions about why.

The 24-year-old British actress best known for her role as Hermione Granger in the “Harry Potter” movies was one of more than 2,000 students to get her degree from the Ivy League university in Providence on Sunday. She was photographed sitting and walking next to a woman who was wearing a cap and gown. The same woman, who was older than Watson and her fellow graduates, was later seen escorting Watson without a cap and gown and with a holstered weapon, a badge and other equipment.

Providence Public Safety Commissioner Steven Pare said the woman is not a Providence officer.

When asked if the woman was a campus police officer and why the guard was necessary, Brown spokesman Mark Nickel said on Tuesday he was “not able to help.”

Watson began her studies at Brown in 2009, the same year she

LONDON – Three premieres in three cities on one day. Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt are pushing their own limits to promote their latest movie “Edge of Tomorrow.”

The tour starts Wednesday with an early London premiere, moving on to Paris and ending in New York. Film stars are used to jetting around to launch their projects but not usually on the same day.

Blunt, the 31-year-old British actress known from “The Devil Wears Prada,” said it’s typical of her co-star.

“When I heard about the premiere idea of three in one day, I just said ‘that’s Tom’s idea,’ ” she said.

“Edge of Tomorrow,” directed by Doug Liman, is an action thriller, a science-fiction tale, a war movie and a love story all rolled into one.

Cruise, 51, plays military PR man Maj. William Cage, a quick-talking coward who is forced to fight for humanity against an alien invasion.

Blunt is the poster girl for the army, a highly trained warrior and the only person who can help Cage when he starts living the same day over and over again, never reaching the tomorrow of the title.

“Edge of Tomorrow” is in U.K. cinemas on Friday and opens in the U.S. on June 6.

into the match on a goal by senior Syndey Wright. The University of Illinois-Chicago-bound forward scored four goals and was a threat the entire night.

Boylan tallied four more goals before the break, two by Kailey Parnello and one each by Wright and Leigha Crowder.

Although the Hurricanes created few opportunities, the young team has a bright future,

There was an eerie calm in the Blackhawks’ dressing room after Monday night’s 5-2 flameout against the Los Angeles Kings. Jonathan Toews, Duncan Keith and Patrick Kane all stood at their lockers and spoke in measured tones, using mild platitudes and showing a quiet confidence.

They shrugged and talked about winning just one game and going from there. They nodded and said that, yes, the fact that they’ve come back from a 3-1 series deficit before, just Game 5 last year, does help. They talked about finding their vs. Los Angeles, “swagger” again.

7 p.m. Wednesday, This didn’t seem like a NBCSN, AM-720 team on the brink of elimination. This seemed like a team mired in a brief slump in mid-January.

The most heated term they used to describe their mindset was “frustrated.” Not furious.

Not embarrassed. Not concerned. Not desperate. Like it or not, the Hawks don’t do furious.

They don’t do desperate. No matter the situation, no matter the challenge, the Hawks always convey that unwavering sense of confidence, one that borders on arrogance. It’s a championship mindset, and it’s the hallmark of a great team that never feels it’s out of it.

But, man, you would have liked to have seen someone angry in there. Someone breathing fire. Someone taking themselves and their teammates to task for a disastrous first half of the game that saw key players make costly mistakes – Brent Seabrook getting outworked down low by Kings forwards camping out in front of Corey Crawford, Keith with a turnover that led to a goal, Patrick Sharp with an unnecessary roughing penalty, Andrew Shaw with a foolish cross-check 190 feet from his own goal.

Toews said after Game 3 that the Hawks need to play “[ticked] off.” That’s good. But they need to actually be ticked off, too. The past three games weren’t about puck luck, about “the bounces” going against the Hawks.

They were about a Kings team that looks faster, deeper and flat-out better than the Hawks do right now.

Yet the Hawks remained cool and collected, repeating the things they said after Game 4 in Detroit last year almost verbatim. To be fair, it’s understandable why.

“We were in the same position last year,” Kane said. “You can look back and say, ‘We came out and were successful, so we can’t we do it again?’ It’s tough with the position we’re

NHL WESTERN CONFERENCE FINAL: BLACKHAWKS VS. KINGS

Huntley boys lacrosse loses to Warren The Huntley boys lacrosse team lost a halftime lead against No. 1-seeded Warren in its 10-6 loss in the quarterfinals of the Lacrosse Cup on Tuesday night in Gurnee.

No. 9-seeded Huntley led 6-2 at the half before Warren went on an 8-0 run to finish the game. This is the second straight year the Red Raiders were eliminated by Warren.

Last year, Huntley lost, 10-3, in the second round.

Huntley was looking for its second straight upset after defeating No. 8-seeded Saint Laurence last week to reach the quarterfinals.

Robert Koson and Ryan Andre each scored two goals and Rydan Scarnato and Shane Conely each added a goal for the Red Raiders. Cal Quinn made seven saves in the loss.

AP sources: Bulls’ Griffin interviews with Cavs CLEVELAND – As they debate what to do with the No. 1 draft pick, the Cavaliers made a significant first move in their coaching search.

The team interviewed Bulls assistant coach Adrian Griffin for its coaching vacancy Tuesday, two people with knowledge of the meeting told The Associated Press. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the private nature of the situation.

Griffin is believed to be the first candidate to formally interview with the Cavs, who are looking for their third coach in three years after owner Dan Gilbert fired Mike Brown last month for the second time in four years.

And while the team was meeting with Griffin, Florida coach Billy Donovan, who reportedly has been contacted by the Cavs, wouldn’t promise he will return for another season in Gainesville.

Brewers OF says he got death threat on Twitter MILWAUKEE – Brewers outfielder Khris Davis said he recently received a death threat on Twitter.

Milwaukee general manager Doug Melvin said Tuesday that the threat was turned over to Major League Baseball security. He said the team was told the situation had been “handled” and didn’t elaborate.

Davis says he got the threat in mid-May when the Brewers were in Chicago to play the Cubs. He referred to matter as a “distraction.”

Melvin said “it is serious when that happens.”

Diskerud, Johannsson lead U.S. over Azerbaijan SAN FRANCISCO – Secondhalf substitutes Mix Diskerud and Aron Johannsson scored to lift a heavy legged United States over Azerbaijan, 2-0, Tuesday night in the first of three World Cup warmups for the Americans.

On a night when captain Clint Dempsey was scratched just before kickoff because of a sore left groin, the 14th-ranked Americans had trouble breaking down No. 85 Azerbaijan.

Red Sox broadcaster’s son pleads guilty to murder WOBURN, Mass. – The son of longtime Boston Red Sox broadcaster Jerry Remy pleaded guilty Tuesday to first-degree murder for fatally stabbing his girlfriend last year while the couple’s 4-year-old daughter screamed and three neighbors tried to stop him.

Jared Remy, 35, was sentenced to a mandatory life without parole for killing Jennifer Martel, 27.

Remy admitted he killed Martel on Aug. 15 at their Waltham apartment and said he wanted to take responsibility for what he had done.

Blackhawks defensemen Nick Leddy (left) and Michal Rozsival hang their heads as members of the Kings celebrate center Jeff Carter’s empty-net goal in the third period of Game 4 of the Western Conference final Monday night in Los Angeles. The Hawks lost, 5-2.

Hawks making a lot of defensive mistakes

By MARK POTASH mpotash@suntimes.com In one 15-second span in Game 4 against the Los Angeles Kings on Monday night, Blackhawks defenseman Nick Leddy lost possession of the puck in his own end, fell to the ice and drew an offsides call on the Hawks with a mistimed entry into the offensive zone.

It was that kind of night for the Hawks’ defensemen. Leddy’s adventure was not costly.

But it seemed like the Hawks’ paid a dear price for almost every other mistake in a 5-2 loss that gave the Kings a 3-1 series lead heading into Game 5 on Wednesday at the United Center.

Duncan Keith, a Norris Trophy finalist, is not immune to losing the puck. It happens to the best of them. But when Anze Kopitar picked him clean in the first period, it led to a Kings goal when Kopitar fired the puck on net and Marian Gaborik redirected it past Corey Crawford.

The Kings seemed to have somebody parked in front of Crawford all night. Jeff Carter screened Crawford on Jake Muzzin’s power-play goal that gave the Kings a 1-0 lead.

Another Muzzin shot was re-

bounded by Justin Williams to Dustin Brown in front of the net for another power-play goal that made it 3-0.

The Hawks are making a lot of defensive mistakes in this series they don’t usually make. And they know it.

“Absolutely,” Brent Seabrook said. “I’ve got to be better in every facet of the game. I think we’ve all got to be doing things that are going to make us win a game and I think some things happened (in Game 4) that are uncharacteristic. But you’ve got to give L.A. credit. They’re forcing us into different situations. But we’ve got to be better and we will be better.”

The Kings have scored 13 goals on Crawford in the past three games.

“We’ve given up way too many and rather easily,” Hawks coach Joel Quenneville said. Preventing the Kings from establishing net-front presence is a key point of emphasis. “[It’s] recognizing the coverage that’s around the net,” Quenneville said. “Around the net they’ve got quick sticks, and they’ve got some good shooters. We’ve got to make sure we’re defending around our net better than they are at

their net. It could be the difference.”

Almost every player is slumping during the Hawks’ three-game losing streak, but the lack of production at both ends of the ice from the defensemen is particularly noticeable. Keith and Seabrook had combined for four goals and 19 points with a plus10 rating in the postseason through Game 1 of the conference final. They have one point and are a minus-3 in the past three games.

Despite the downturn, it’s not like they forgot to play hockey. Although the Hawks are long shots statistically to win the series, they still are the defending Cup champions, still confident they can turn it around.

“Guys are angry. Guys are [ticked] off,” Seabrook said. “I thought we played well for a period and a half. But we had a tough start and you’ve got to play a full three periods in the playoffs to win, and we weren’t happy with our game [Monday] night. I’m sure guys had a tough time sleeping last night. But we’ve got to focus on [Game 5] and focus on whatever we can to win and be a desperate team out there to try and get the job done.”

It’s time to get angry, Blackhawks • BLACKHAWKS Continued from page C1 in right now, but at the same time, we still feel good about our team in here, and we all know we’ve done it before. You have to have that confidence of trying to win the next game and see what happens.”

Yes, you have to have that confidence. And clearly, even battling whatever injuries and mental fatigue they insist they’re not battling, the Hawks still do have it. And it’d be beyond foolish to write this team

off down 3-1 – they’re too good, too proud, to go down without a fight.

But this is as dire as it gets for a team.

The Hawks can take solace in the fact the Kings are the streakiest team in the NHL – six times during this season, they’ve lost at least three straight games, including twice in the postseason. They even can take solace in the fact that the Kings themselves have proven that no lead is safe – they came back from 3-0 down against San Jose in the first round, then won Games

NBA WESTERN CONFERENCE FINAL: THUNDER 105, SPURS 92 – SERIES TIED 2-2

Westbrook leads Thunder with 40

By CLIFF BRUNT The Associated Press OKLAHOMA CITY – Russell Westbrook had 40 points and 10 assists, and the Oklahoma City Thunder beat the San Antonio Spurs, 105-92, on Tuesday night to tie the Western Conference final at two games apiece.

It matched the second-highest playoff point total of Westbrook’s career, falling short of the 43 he scored in the 2012 NBA Finals. He also had five rebounds and five steals.

“I think I did all right. Coming out with a win is most important,” Westbrook said in a postgame interview with TNT. “I just try to come out and give maximum effort. My teammates ask that of me and that’s what I try to do on both ends of the floor.”

Kevin Durant added 31

Game 5 Oklahoma City at San Antonio, 8 p.m. Thursday, TNT points on 11-for-22 shooting. It was his highest-scoring game of the series after the NBA’s leading scorer was held to a 22.7-point average in the first three games. Serge Ibaka added nine points and eight rebounds for the Thunder, who have turned around the series since he returned from an injury that was expected to keep him out for the rest of the postseason.

Boris Diaw had 14 points and 10 rebounds, and Tony Parker added 14 points for the Spurs, who blew a 2-0 lead against the Thunder in this round two years ago and are in danger of doing it again.

San Antonio will host Game 5 on Thursday.

6 and 7 against Anaheim after losing three straight.

But the Hawks shouldn’t be looking for solace and comfort.

They should be most uncomfortable right now, and using that discomfort as motivation – motivation to change their mindset, to change their suddenly passive style of defense and penalty killing, to change their fortunes.

It’s time to get angry. Time to get desperate. Time to do something – anything – to turn this thing around.

Because there’s a fine line between defiance and denial.

Duncan Keith leaned on a podium last June and looked out at the thousands of people who had gathered for the Blackhawks’ Stanley Cup championship rally.

“Remember, Chicago,” he said in a Scottish accent, “it’s better to live one day as a lion than a thousand years as a lamb.”

He apparently was doing his best “Braveheart” imitation, and even though William Wallace never uttered those words in the movie, you got the idea: The Hawks were the king Duncan Keith of the jungle and would not, under any circumstances, lead small, insignificant lives.

What happened to that team and that spirit? Can both please come back, immediately? And why are the Kings holding shearing blades?

It’s looking grim for the Hawks, who trail Los Angeles 3-1 in the Western Conference final after a poor effort in Game 4 on Monday.

In a very real sense, this is about what Keith referred to all those days ago in Grant Park. How do the 2013-14 Hawks want to be remembered? As the proud defending champions that roared back to make this a series again? Or the group that went away meekly?

It truly is as simple as that.

Game 5 is Wednesday night at the United Center. The Hawks know how to push back. They’ve done it before. They did it last season when they were down 3-1 to Detroit in a second-round series and won the next three games.

They are one of the few teams in sports that can be better than everybody else simply by deciding to be.

They are capable of acing a test without studying for it, and as galling as that might be for the schoolmarms and hockey purists among us, it tends to come in handy when you’re where the Hawks are now, a few toes over the edge.

Around town, faith in them has been rocked, and the doubts are valid. The 5-2 loss to Los Angeles in Game 4 wasn’t just any defeat. It was a soul-shaking loss, one that could finish off even the strongest-willed team.

Shall we review it? Shall we probe the nerve endings?

Keith lost a puck that led to the Kings’ second goal. Brent Seabrook, out of position too often, had a rough night. So did Patrick Sharp, who had a silly penalty that led to another Kings’ goal. Andrew

VIEWS Rick Morrissey Shaw skated around and did dumb things all evening.

Jonathan Toews got killed on faceoffs. Various Kings were allowed to set up a neighborhood watch program in front of goalie Corey Crawford.

Oh, and Los Angeles outhustled the Hawks. It’s difficult to recall many instances when they beat the Kings to the puck along the boards Monday. It’s hard to generate offense when you’re losing battles for that rubber disk. When the Hawks did have it, Los Angeles sealed off passing lanes.

It was awful hockey. Are we clear on that? Good. Now forget it. It’s time for the Hawks to pretend Game 4 never happened. For that matter, forget Game 2, as well. Time for some selective amnesia, fellas. If that’s not possible, you’re doomed.

Coach Joel Quenneville has had to answer questions about his team’s stamina in this series. Ten Hawks competed in the Sochi Olympics. Put that together with last season’s Stanley Cup run and these playoffs, and you have the possibility of fatigue. But fatigue doesn’t explain a 3-0 deficit after the first period Monday, and it surely doesn’t explain how the Hawks ended up playing with significantly more energy the rest of the game.

Oops, we were going to forget Game 4, weren’t we?

The truly great teams push through weariness. If the Hawks, winners of two of the past four Cups, want to be considered a dynasty, they’ll have to overcome sore bodies Wednesday night and the rest of the playoffs.

The Kings are very, very good. Let’s not lose sight of that. They’re almost as deep as the Hawks and just as resilient, as their 3-0 firstround comeback against San Jose proved. But the Hawks are better than this.

They certainly are not as bad as L.A. is making them look.

We’ve been told the abundance of talent might be the problem for the Hawks, that they rely on it too much. It’s only a problem if you prefer your teams to look like the Buffalo Sabres.

The Hawks can win this series. Will they? Ah, now that’s the question.

But it’s time to get back to living like a lion.

NHL EASTERN CONFERENCE FINAL: CANADIENS 7, RANGERS 4

Canadiens surge past Rangers The ASSOCIATED PRESS MONTREAL – Rene Bourque scored three goals and the Montreal Canadiens chased goalie Henrik Lundqvist and defeated the New York Rangers, 7-4, Tuesday to stave off elimination in the Eastern Conference final.

The Rangers, who lead the best-of-seven series 3-2, will have another chance to earn a trip to the Stanley Cup Final in Game 6 on Thursday night in New York.

Alex Galchenyuk, Tomas Plekanec and Max Pacioretty also scored for Montreal, which outshot the Rangers 28-27.

“That was a lot of fun,” Pacioretty said. “We came out strong. That’s a group effort.

Everyone contributed tonight and that’s makes it more special.”

Derek Stepan, playing with a guard on his helmet to protect a broken jaw suffered from a Brandon Prust hit in Game 3, returned to the lineup to score twice for the Rang-

Game 6 Montreal at N.Y. Rangers, 7 p.m. Thursday, NBCSN ers. Chris Kreider had a goal and three assists and Rick Nash also scored.

“It was a different game than what we’ve had so far in this series,” Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said.

At 10:41 of the third, Rangers defenseman John Moore was given a major penalty and was ejected for a blindside, open ice hit on Dale Weise that was similar to Prust’s hit on Stepan. Weise was wobbly when he got up and went for treatment, but returned to the bench late in the period.

It was a night of strange bounces and spotty goaltending, even if New York’s best chance of the game had Carl Hagelin’s shot stopped by the end of Dustin Tokarski’s stick midway through the first period.

Lundqvist was pulled in favor of Cam Talbot after al-

lowing four goals on 19 shots.

“I pulled him because I thought at that time we needed a little momentum shift,” Vigneault said. “I thought it might catch everyone’s attention. It did for a while. But obviously it didn’t work out.”

Tokarski stayed in despite allowing four on his first 14.

The Rangers did a good job of canceling the initial rush Montreal gets from its pregame buildup in winning the opening two games of the series, but Ginette Reno’s “O Canada” seemed to work this time.

Only 22 seconds into the game, Kreider was sent off for tripping and the Canadiens converted when Galchenyuk tipped in P.K. Subban’s point shot from the edge of the crease at 1:48.

Stepan tied it at 10:44 of the first on a 30-foot shot off a rush that fooled Tokarski.

Plekanec restored the lead with a similar goal at 12:24 as he swiped the puck between two defenders and had it beat Lundqvist.

Triple Crown club ready for new member

Marian Central’s Karlie Blaz (left) and Boylan Catholic’s Sadey Jumapao go after a ball during the first half of a Class 2A Hampshire Sectional semifinal Tuesday in Hampshire. The Hurricanes lost, 9-0.

Hurricanes coach likes the direction they’re heading • HURRICANES Continued from page C1 and senior Victoria Girolamo knew they had so much to be proud of and walk away with this season.

“Our record did not indicate what this team accomplished this year,” Girolamo said. “We grew together so much, we won a regional, which no one thought was possible and we really became a family.”

A 30-minute lightning delay at halftime gave the Hurricanes a chance to talk a bit longer about strategy in the second half.

Marian Central (5-13) came out strong in the first five minutes, and nearly scored on a shot by Kailin Fortin that was punched over the goal by Titans goalkeeper Amanda Black. The Hurricanes had a few corners to work with in the half, but failed to capitalize.

Patrice Wolfson is ready to give up her title as the co-owner of the last Triple Crown winner.

She will get the chance if California Chrome is successful in his bid to join Affirmed and 10 other horses atop racing’s pinnacle.

No horse since Affirmed in 1978 has swept the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes. Since then, 11 have won the first two legs only to fail in the 1½-mile Belmont, the longest and most grueling of the three races that are run over a five-week span. Wolfson and other connections of Triple Crown winners believe this might be the year they get to induct another member into their exclusive club.

“You just like to see a great horse win it and I think he’s got the potential to be a great horse, so we’ll be cheering for him,” Wolfson said Tuesday by phone from New York.

Wolfson, who owned Affirmed with her late husband Louis, will be at Belmont Park on June 7. She’ll be joined by others with ties to Triple Crown winners, including 92-year-old Penny Chenery, who owned 1973 champion Secretariat.

“If this horse can win the Triple Crown, I want to be there,” Chenery said from

her home in Boulder, Colo.

The jockeys who rode the past three Triple Crown winners will be at Belmont, too: Steve Cauthen (Affirmed), Jean Cruget (Seattle Slew) and Ron Turcotte (Secretariat).

The 1970s produced three Triple Crown winners, with Secretariat breaking a 25-year drought. Seattle Slew followed in 1977 and Affirmed came along the next year, leading many to believe the Triple Crown was an easy feat.

Now 36 years have passed since Cauthen, who was then 18, teamed with Affirmed to hold off Alydar in three thrilling races, capped by their victory by a head in the Belmont.

“It was one of the greatest races of all time to watch and to be involved in,” he said.

“Two great horses continuing a great rivalry, never giving up. It lived up to the hopes and expectations of everybody.”

Cauthen has watched California Chrome from afar and the chestnut colt reminds him of Affirmed. Cauthen and his horse got along well, and he sees California Chrome and jockey Victor Espinoza doing the same.

“He’s got a lot of options with him. The horse seems to settle wherever he wants him and can pick up in an instant,” said Cauthen, who runs a breeding operation in Verona, Kentucky. “This horse has got a great chance of pulling it off.”

Wright scored two goals a minute apart, forcing the time to be cut in half. By IHSA rules, the clock is cut in half once the lead grows to seven.

“This is not the last time you will hear from this program,” Smith said. “Aside from our five seniors, we are an extremely young group and this gave us experience to compete in the future – a future that I believe is very bright.”

LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS

Sterling responds to NBA Claims recording was made illegally

By BRIAN MAHONEY and TAMI ABDOLLAH The Associated Press NEW YORK – Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling responded Tuesday to the NBA’s attempt to oust him, arguing that there is no basis for stripping him of his team because his racist statements were illegally recorded “during an inflamed lovers’ quarrel in which he was clearly distraught.”

According to the response, a copy of which was obtained

by The Associated Press, Sterling says V. Stiviano recorded him without his knowledge and thus the recording was illegal under California law. He also said he could not have “willfully” damaged

the league because he did not know it would be made public.

“A jealous rant to a lover never intended to be published cannot offend the NBA rules,” Sterling said in the document, which first was reported by USA Today.

Meanwhile, the attorney for Shelly Sterling confirmed that Donald Sterling has given her written permission to sell the team. According to a person who is in contact with a potential bidder, who spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the process publicly, the Clippers are seeking binding bids before Tuesday – the day NBA owners are scheduled to meet in New York and vote on whether to strip Sterling of the team.

The league said in a statement Tuesday that if three-quarters of the 30 owners voted to sustain the charge, “the Sterlings’ inter-

ests in the Clippers will be terminated and the team will be sold.”

The NBA charged Donald Sterling with damaging the league and its merchandising partners, and the league’s constitution gave him until the end of Tuesday to respond. According to a basketball official familiar with the proceedings, speaking on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss Sterling, the NBA has scheduled a call of its executive committee for 2 p.m. Wednesday.

Shelly Sterling submitted her own separate response to the NBA’s charges Tuesday that included a “vigorous defense of the attempt by the NBA to blame her for doing nothing wrong,” according to a person with knowledge of the proceedings. The individual wasn’t authorized to speak publicly about the response.

Marengo, citing consistent issues with long travel for competition, liked the idea of joining Woodstock and Woodstock North, even if the KRC starts as a five-team league. That would leave those schools with a glut of nonconference dates to fill, but they felt that was better than all the travel.

Noteworthy McLean heading to Winona St.: Sam McLean always had her sights set on Winona State for college.

She just didn’t expect to be able to play softball at the Division II school in Minnesota. However, the Crystal Lake South senior shortstop will attend Winona State next year with a guaranteed roster spot.

McLean said that though Winona State doesn’t appear to have much scholarship money available this upcoming year, she believes there will be an opportunity in the future.

Either way, McLean is excited to continue her playing career.

“Just playing in high school season I realized it’s not something I want to give up yet,” McLean said.

“I’d regret it.”

Although McLean plays shortstop for the Gators, she will predominately play outfield for Winona State. She already has visited the school a few times.

“Winona was always my No. 1 school,” McLean said. “I was really stressed out about [making a decision].”

Rain affects McHenry regional: The Warriors were ready to play their playoff opener Tuesday.

Now McHenry is delayed until Wednesday because of Monday and Tuesday’s rains. The top-seeded Warriors are scheduled to play the winner between No. 4 Grayslake North and No. 5 Round Lake in the Class 4A McHenry Regional. However, rain prevented that quarterfinal game from being played both Monday and Tuesday.

The weather created a domino effect. Grayslake North and Round Lake now will play Wednesday with the winner advancing to play top-seeded McHenry on Thursday in a regional semifinal. The other semifinal between No. 2 Prairie Ridge and No. 3 Grant got bumped to Friday, and the title game is scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday.

Playing during the day either Wednesday or Thursday and fitting in multiple games was not an option because school still is in session.

Genoa-Kingston, Johnsburg and Richmond-Burton, who all will be in the BNC next year, to join them in 2016-17 in the KRC. An eight-team league would provide a near ideal number and make scheduling much easier for athletic directors.

The Woodstock schools will be the smallest in the FVC next year when Johnsburg leaves to rejoin the BNC. They felt they were at a competitive disadvantage and searched for other options.

FRENCH OPEN

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

FIVE-DAY PLANNER

Aussie champ 1st-round loser

TEAM

By HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press PARIS – Much to her dismay, Li Na is familiar with this feeling.

She earns a Grand Slam championship, is heralded at home, then shows up at subsequent major tournaments and seemingly forgets how to win.

It happened in 2011, after her French Open triumph made her China’s first player with a Grand Slam singles title. It happened again Tuesday, when Li was seeded second at Roland Garros but lost to someone ranked 103rd in the first round, not quite four months removed from winning the Australian Open.

“I didn’t follow the game plan,” Li said. “Didn’t have any idea how to play.”

Her 7-5, 3-6, 6-1 exit against Kristina Mladenovic of France in front a partisan crowd on a cloudy, windy Day 3 came about 16 hours after the men’s Australian Open champion, third-seeded Stan Wawrinka, was beaten in Paris – making this French Open already unlike any Grand Slam tournament in history.

It’s the first time that the men’s and women’s singles champions from the previous major lost in the first round.

“Nobody say if you (are) No. 2 in the world, you have to win all the matches. I mean, this is tennis,” said Li, who works with Carlos Rodriguez, former coach of four-time French Open titlist Justine Henin.

For an opening match at a major, the “tension is different,” she added. “Always tough to pass the first round.”

Top players, even the likes of Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams, frequently talk about being particularly jittery at the start of a Grand Slam tournament, even against clearly outclassed competition.

They notice, to be sure, when folks such as Li or Wawrinka depart quickly.

“Regardless of what’s happened to the other players,” said reigning Wimbledon champion Andy Murray, who won in four sets Tuesday, “I still hoped that I would try or

This French Open has seen some rough going for several past major champions and other highly seeded players, and the second round has yet to begin.

No. 13 Caroline Wozniacki, the 2009 U.S. Open runner-up, was beaten Tuesday, less than a week after her planned wedding to golf star Rory McIlroy was called off; No. 11 Grigor Dimitrov, considered an upand-coming threat by many, lost to Ivo Karlovic; two seeded men, No. 16 Tommy Haas and No. 21 Nicolas Almagro, quit during the first set because of injuries; past Grand Slam titles winner Lleyton Hewitt also lost.

One person pleasantly surprised to finally feel what it’s like to win in the first round is 66th-ranked Marinko Matosevic of Australia, who was 0-12 at Grand Slam tournaments before beating Dustin Brown of Germany, 7-6 (5), 6-4, 6-7 (1), 7-5.

“Huge relief,” said Matosevic, who now meets No. 7 Murray. “It got pretty demoralizing at some stages. I had some tough draws.

When I did have my chances, I just couldn’t quite do it.”

SEC SPRING MEETINGS

Source: Slauson recovering from surgery Fla. coach

By PATRICK FINLEY pfinley@suntimes.com LAKE FOREST – Left guard Matt Slauson had right shoulder surgery about 3½ months ago, a source confirmed to the Sun-Times, but should return in time for fall camp.

Slauson, who didn’t miss a snap last season, was one of four veterans in attendance who did not practice,

along with defensive tackle Nate Collins and safeties Chris Conte and Craig Steltz.

Hixon hurt: Domenik Hixon’s Bears career didn’t last one practice.

The 29-year-old, who was signed to a one-year deal to compete for the Bears’ third receiver and kick return jobs, tore his ACL during 11-on-11 drills Tuesday, the first day of organized team activities at Halas Hall.

On Facebook, Hixon said he was “disappointed” about his third ACL tear and that the team “has the players and coaches to win the Super Bowl.”

Josh Morgan becomes Marquess Wilson’s chief competition at third receiver, with Chris Williams the favorite to return kicks.

This and that: Middle linebacker D.J. Williams, who was signed to a one-year deal this offseason, was the

most noticeable no-show Tuesday. The Bears are not obligated to give a reason – the workout is voluntary – and no coaches are available for comment during OTAs. The team’s mandatory minicamp starts June 17. ... Linebacker Lance Briggs said the broken left shoulder that cost him seven games last season is “getting better” after a restful offseason. “There’s not much I’m not able to do in practice,” he said.

BEARS OTA

LB McClellin has ‘a lot’ to learn Playing linebacker ‘is what I should be doing and I’m very excited about it’

By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@chicagofootball.com LAKE FOREST – The instincts, Shea McClellin insists, are there.

But the work that remains before the former first-round draft pick considers himself a full-blown linebacker after spending his first two years with the Bears at defensive end, McClellin understands, is fairly obvious.

McClellin spent the first day of organized team activity moving between the “Sam” and “Mike” linebacker slots, getting his first on-field taste of what his career now will look like. The opening day of drills continues a transformation that not only includes where McClellin plays, but also how he looks doing it.

McClellin’s personal trainer Scot Prohaska tweeted photos last month, highlighting a physical change that has included McClellin dropping 11 pounds (from 263 to 252) and 8 percent body fat (from 18 percent to 10). McClellin said Tuesday that the Bears have set his target weight at between 245 and 250 pounds.

With the physical change almost complete, the rest will take place in the linebackers meeting room and on the field. Although Tuesday demonstrated there still is plenty to be put into practice, McClellin – who made 10 starts at defensive end and registered four sacks last year – said the move to linebacker puts him at a position that is a “natural fit.”

“I think [playing linebacker] is what I should be doing and I’m very excited about it,” he said. “As a player, you’re going to do what they tell you to and I was fine with playing (defensive) end. They wanted me to rush the passer and I think that’s one of my best strengths and so I was fine with it.”

But immediately after last season ended, McClellin was informed that the Bears planned to move him to linebacker – a position he hadn’t played fulltime since high school. He

More online Visit ChicagoFootball.com for the latest Bears and NFL news. immediately began to work on the transition, making both physical and mental adjustments that would make the move smooth.

He got into the playbook and looked to linebacker Lance Briggs for assistance, looking for any help that could aid him in the adjustment.

Although he remains a work in progress, his teammates sense that the move could be the right one for McClellin.

“He’s an athlete; he’s an athletic linebacker,” Briggs said Tuesday.

“And athletic linebackers can play in this league.”

After two seasons that he admitted “weren’t the best,” McClellin believes a fresh start at linebacker could be positive. There will be adjustments to be sure, going from moving forward to playing more upward and lateral. Asked what specifically he has to work on, McClellin answered with a quick response.

“A lot,” he said. “It’s not just one or two things. It’s a lot.”

Although McClellin is fully prepared to make the jump to linebacker, at least one of his teammates admitted Tuesday that the transition McClellin finds himself in the midst of isn’t one everyone could make.

“The cool part is that he’s athletic enough to do it,” defensive end Jared Allen said. “It’s one of those things where the more things you can do in this league, the longer you’ll be around. Obviously, they feel he has worth coming back off the edge.

AP file photo “But for me, if I had to move to linebacker, I’d be cut. It’s not happen- Bears defensive end Shea McClellin sacks Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers on ing. I’m a one position type of guy.”

Jennings plays slot cornerback Briggs to lead makeover

By ARTHUR ARKUSH aarkush@chicagofootball.com LAKE FOREST – It’s difficult to glean much information from the first organized team activity with regard to the schematic changes coordinator Mel Tucker envisions for his defense. But the biggest takeaway from the Bears’ first OTA on Tuesday was the potential new role of former Pro Bowl cornerback Tim Jennings, after the Bears spent the 14th overall pick on fellow CB Kyle Fuller.

In the Bears’ first seven-on-seven drill, Jennings slid inside to cover the slot receiver, while Fuller and Charles Tillman manned the perimeter. Jennings, who signed a four-year con- Tim Jennings tract extension in January that includes nearly $12 million guaranteed, said when he first arrived in Chicago in 2010 he wanted to play nickel.

“I wanted to get on the field as much as I can and as quick as I can,” Jennings said.

“Whatever it was going to take. … It’s the same mindset, I want to be on the field, I want to stay on the field. If they ask me to move inside so we can get Kyle on the field, or have Kyle move inside and I stay outside, whatever it takes.”

Jennings, who occasionally played inside earlier in his career with the Colts, said the change – which he didn’t learn about until last week – is an adjustment.

“You’re just another linebacker, an athletic linebacker,” said the 5-foot-8, 185-pound Jennings. “I’ve got to get used to seeing different people, different formations with my eyes and being able to see different things with my keys. It should be a couple days going out there I’ll be back in the groove.”

A slot cornerback’s responsibilities include matching up with receivers of all shapes and sizes. Green Bay’s Randall Cobb is 5-10, 192 pounds, and the Lions

aligned Calvin Johnson (6-5, 236 pounds) inside frequently last season, as well. The inside cornerback, as Jennings points out, also is required to be a physical, fearless run defender – an area where, unlike much of the Bears’ defense last season, Jennings has shined.

“I’m going to have to be in on runs a lot more,” he said. “If every guy is doing their job the way they’re supposed to be doing it, I think it makes all our jobs a lot easier. … It should be an easy transition. We’ve got the guys in place. It was a pretty good transition today.”

After losing veteran Kelvin Hayden to a season-ending knee injury suffered in training camp last year, the Bears were forced to rely on inexperienced second-year player Isiah Frey. In a tough spot, Frey didn’t prove to be a liability – but he hardly proved himself as a dynamic playmaker, either.

That’s exactly what Jennings has been over his past three seasons with the Bears.

He led the NFL with nine picks in 2012, and he added four interceptions and three forced fumbles as the Bears’ most consistent defender a season ago.

Jennings, who also was seen fielding punts at one point Tuesday, said having Tillman back – “Peanut” signed a one-year deal this offseason – is a “breath of fresh air.” He said the biggest challenge right now – even bigger than learning a new position – is learning more about his new teammates.

“The biggest challenge is remembering who is who. Right now, everybody is a number; everybody is fighting for a spot,” he said. “… Right now, everybody is watching somebody just to see what they could bring to this team. The coaches, even the players, just to know who is going to be there and who you can count on to get the job done.”

The Bears could be counting on Jennings, who already has proved to be selfless, also bringing his playmaking flare to the nickel position for them in 2014.

• ARKUSH Continued from page C1 It is Briggs who will be counted on to lead the renaissance.

Asked how he and his teammates will approach getting the defense turned around, Briggs said, “You’ve got to move forward. There are a lot of things that we’re really going to have to correct this year. As far as last year, our tackling was really bad. I mean everything we did pretty much was atrocious, so you know everything we’re doing now is to not just correct that, but to get better and get ourselves back to being that top-five defense.”

It started with a roster makeover that delivered new projected starters Jared Allen, Willie Young, Lamarr Houston and Ryan Mundy via free agency, the resigning of veteran free-agents Williams, Tillman, Jennings and Jeremiah Ratliff and the drafting of Kyle Fuller, Ego Ferguson and Will Sutton.

But it’s those new and recycled vets who have Briggs’ juices flowing.

“There are a lot of good veterans out there. It’s nice to see Jay Ratliff back; it’s nice to see Jared Allen, some of these other guys, Willie, Lamarr, it’s great to have that veteran presence in the defensive huddle, I think that’s important.”

Briggs added, “The

veterans we’ve brought in, they’re leaders. They’ve been leaders everywhere they’ve been, and being here, veterans understand what you’ve got to do, these guys know what they’ve got to do and they’re going to get it done.”

Defensive coordinator Mel Tucker also has promised some scheme adjustments are in the works, but Briggs is less certain now what to expect from those changes.

“I have an idea, but it’s still going to come down to running to the ball,” Briggs said “You know, get the guy down and get the ball away from him. We’re going to see ball and I’m going to hit ball.”

That is something Bears fans know they can count on Briggs to do, and he clearly was in much better shape physically to do it on the first day of OTAs than he was when he returned from his shoulder injury late last season.

How well Briggs and his new defensive teammates rebound will determine whether this club can take another step forward in Year 2 of the Trestman regime, and whether or not the Briggs era will continue in Chicago.

DESTIN, Fla. – Florida coach Will Muschamp wants to avoid playing teams from the Football Championship Subdivision.

And not because the Gators lost to lower-division Georgia Southern last year.

Speaking at the Southeastern Conference’s annual spring meetings Tuesday, Muschamp said he would prefer a 12-game schedule that features eight league teams, in-state rival Florida State and three more teams from the Football Bowl Subdivision.

“We’re probably Will going to move forMuschamp ward without playing FCS opponents,” Muschamp said, noting that his reasoning primarily has to do with getting his team in the best position to make the college football playoff that begins next season.

“And I think our fan base wants to see better opponents,” he added.

Muschamp’s boss and several other SEC coaches, though, don’t seem ready to close the door on lower-division teams.

“I understand what Will’s saying,” Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley said. “In a perfect world, you play all D-I schools. But also you have to have 12 opponents.”

The topic was one of many addressed during the opening day of the SEC meetings, where talk focused on conference autonomy, potential rules changes and an early signing period for college football.

The meetings were the first chance for many coaches to weigh in on scheduling. The SEC decided last month to stick with its current format of eight league games and a permanent nondivision rival.

The one change will affect nonconference scheduling. Starting in 2016, all SEC teams will be required to play at least one game against a team from one of the other Big Five conferences – the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big Ten, Pac-12 and Big 12.

That tweak shouldn’t affect many programs. SEC schools routinely play at least one team from those conferences every season.

Mississippi, Mississippi State, Texas A&M and Vanderbilt do not play nonconference games against teams in the Big Five. Only Arkansas, Texas A&M and Kentucky did not play a nonconference game against a Big Five team last year.

So several of those nonconference games come against FCS teams. In fact, all 14 SEC teams play at least one lower-division team in 2014. And commissioner Mike Slive called it an “institutional decision,” adding that he has no plans to dictate scheduling.

“At this point, I believe it’s best for us to continue doing that,” Mississippi coach Hugh Freeze said. “I just find it hard to believe that one game like that ... over the totality of the season would really hinder you if you perform well in those other games.”

Georgia Southern shocked Florida, 26-20, in Gainesville last season, a humbling loss that guaranteed the Gators their first losing season since 1979.

And few have forgotten Appalachian State’s stunner at Michigan in 2007.

“I know we’re trying to stay away from them if physically possible,” Arkansas coach Bret Bielema said.

“But I think they have their place, especially if they’re a regional game.

It gives an FCS [opponent] a chance to play what used to be a BCS team.

I think that has a lot of merit. I was in the Big Ten when the Appalachian State thing happened and I think that makes college football pretty cool.”

Alabama coach Nick Saban said scheduling FCS teams might not be avoidable.

Saban said Big Five teams aren’t chomping at the bit to play the SEC. “I don’t know that we have a choice sometimes,” Saban said. “We can’t just call people up and say, ‘We want to have a game.’ It’s not like setting up a golf game. I call up three of my buddies and say you guys want to play and you play Sunday morning. Then everybody says, ‘Yeah, I can play.’ You ever try to schedule a game? Do you know that goes into that? It’s very difficult to do home-and-home with quality teams. To be honest with you, you almost have to buy games to get people to play you.

“Outside of the neutral-site game we do and our conference games, we struggle to schedule three other games.”

SAN FRANCISCO – Put Barry Bonds in uniform again as a teacher and mentor? Give him access to influence your bright, young players during a spring training before an expected playoff run?

Not even the San Francisco Giants were sure that was a great idea when they discussed a oneweek reconciliation with their former Barry Bonds steroid-using, often selfish, always controversial slugger.

And Bonds is their guy.

“The biggest challenge is hopefully the player is committed to being on the same page as you are when he comes in, and at the same time humble enough to be able to be in the background,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday night at AT&T Park, where many of the Cubs still remained baffled and amused two days after hearing that the Cubs had hired Manny Ramirez as a minor-league “mentor” and player-coach.

“You’re not in the forefront anymore. You’re not getting all the attention,” Bochy added. “No. 1, it’s the commitment to do whatever you can for the players and the organization. And part of that is being humble enough to give your time and your effort without looking for attention and credit.”

Bonds, whose career ended in the BALCO steroid scandal that led to a felony obstruction of justice conviction, had told the Giants and media for

SAN FRANCISCO – Tim Hudson turned in another vintage performance to start this season, tossing seven scoreless innings to lead the San Francisco Giants past the Cubs, 4-0, on Tuesday night.

Hudson (5-2) allowed six hits, struck out five and walked none.

The 38-year-old has allowed two earned runs or fewer in nine of his 10 starts, and he has pitched at least seven innings eight times.

Cubs again will try to win their first road series since September in Wednesday’s finale.

Manny Ramirez, formerly of the Sacramento RiverCats, autographs a Los Angeles Dodgers jersey before Sacramento’s Triple-A game against the Albuquerque Isotopes on May 19, 2012, in Albuquerque, N.M. years that he wanted to come back and help young players despite a track record of ignoring and dismissing young teammates.

Even when the Giants agreed to bring Bonds to spring training for a week as a guest instructor, they weren’t sure it would work.

“No,” Bochy said, “you have to see it happen.”

And even after seeing a largely uneventful week in March, with Bonds on good behavior throughout, the Giants still aren’t certain whether they’d consider doing it again.

Which makes the Cubs’ decision to take a chance on Ramirez look even more surreal, especially when it involves every hope the front office is pinning its competitive plans on: the prospects.

Javy Baez, meet Manny Ramirez.

“It’s one of those deals, if he’s changed in a way where he’s going to be open to help and be unselfish, this could be a great fit,” said Cubs hitting coach Bill Mueller, a Red Sox teammate during Ramirez’s most controversial “Manny being Manny” moments, “because he is one of those guys that understands the game and can help some people.”

Even team president Theo Epstein, the Red Sox general manager who eventually was forced to trade Ramirez over his behavior in Boston, admits the risk involved in putting the former lightning-rod teammate and repeat-offender drug cheat into the Triple-A clubhouse.

But Epstein downplayed the level of risk, said the club had “vetted the PED issue thoroughly” and that the arrangement can be “terminated” swiftly if an issue arises.

Publicly, players have talked this week about the value of having a guy with Ramirez’s hitting accomplishments around to impart his knowledge. Privately, many are as skeptical as any media critic has been, joking about his sometimes bizarre behavior as a player and teammate, and questioning the wisdom and the message of embracing even a “reformed” steroid user.

Top prospect Baez told the Des Moines Register that Ramirez is one of his favorite players.

“You won’t know until it happens,” said Mueller, who described Ramirez as a more generous and open teammate privately than he showed publicly. “But I think on the basis of what probably Theo and other people have talked to him about, there’s enough reason [to think] he has probably turned a corner and is a different person.”

Wrigley’s new signs will block rooftops The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – The Cubs released a revised plan for Wrigley Field’s renovation Tuesday that calls for new signs, including some that would block the view from nearby rooftop venues, and warns that the team’s management would consider moving to another site if they are not allowed to “control our ballpark.”

The updated plans for Wrigley Field and developing the land around it come days after the team announced it no longer would seek the approval of the plans from the rooftop owners, who charge fans to sit in bleachers atop their buildings.

“If we don’t control our ballpark, then we have to look at other options, and we would work with the city on that,” Cubs President of Business Operations Crane Kenney said.

“We would first look in the city.”

The 15 rooftop owners, who have spent millions of dollars on their venues and have a contract with Cubs through 2023 requiring them to pay the team 17 percent of their gross annual revenue, have threatened to sue over any changes at the ballpark that would obstruct their views of the playing field. Under renderings released Tuesday, some of the signs would fully block views of the field from rooftops.

Last summer, the City Council approved the Cubs’ $500 million renovation plan for the 100-year-old ballpark. The new plan would add $75 million to the price tag. Proposed addition features include a 30,000-squarefoot clubhouse in a two-level basement beneath an outdoor plaza, a 200-seat restaurant and a 200-seat auditorium behind the home dugout.

WHITE SOX NOTES

Ramirez hoping for All-Star appearance Note to readers: Tuesday night’s White Sox game against the Cleveland Indians was delayed by weather and ended too late for a game story to appear in this edition.

Log on to NWHerald.com for the story.

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com CHICAGO – If the MLB AllStar Game were today, Alexei Ramirez would have the strongest case to be the American League’s starting shortstop.

“For me, it would be a tremendous honor to be able to participate, to be recognized for putting in hard work and doing everything I’ve done Alexei Ramirez to get here,’’ Ramirez said Tuesday through an interpreter.

Ramirez opened the season with a franchise record 17game hitting streak and had 40 hits in April, a notoriously poor month for him, and hasn’t really cooled off in May. Through Monday, he led AL shortstops in average (.320), home runs (seven), RBIs (36), slugging (.483) and OPS (.838) and is third with nine stolen bases. He hasn’t missed a game.

Ramirez always talks up team results above his own, and stopped short of saying he deserves to be an All-Star. He definitely pays attention, and would relish the chance to go to the game, which is July 15 at Target Field in Minneapolis.

“I absolutely watch it,” he said. “I think it’s fun, especially last year with (fellow Cuban

for these

Yoenis) Cespedes playing in the game. These are the best players in baseball and I enjoy watching it.”

The All-Star Game still is 43 games down the road.

Ramirez figures to have fan vote competition from Derek Jeter (.273, one homer, 10 RBIs), who will be a sentimental choice in his final season.

Up and not quite Adam: Leadoff man Adam Eaton isn’t moving completely free and easy, and although he said his sore legs are “coming around,” he still is coping with minor soreness.

But Eaton said he wants no part of a rest for his legs Wednesday before Thursday’s off day that would give him two days off for the price of one.

“A couple of cold tubs, offday Thursday and by Friday we’ll have the spark back in them,” said Eaton, who was on the DL from May 3 through 17 with a strained right hamstring.

Paulino has a sore shoulder.

“I don’t know if he’s seriously injured, but I think you look at the numbers and everything that’s right there you still think there’s something there,” Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “We’ll continue to evaluate that.”

Summer is a chance to try new vegetables

By MICHELE KAYAL The Associated Press

S

INSIDE: Recipes for Smoky Grilled Zucchini and Grilled Asparagus with Lemon Butter

pring is back and so are farmers markets. And that means a whole new chance to make friends with strange and unusual vegetables. Or to rehabilitate some old familiars.

The number of farmers markets has more than doubled during the past decade, topping more than 8,000 in 2013. Matching that proliferation is equally wild growth in the variety of produce sold at them. Heirloom tomatoes and carrots in funky colors?

That’s just the start. Think rainbow-spectrum radishes, unusual peas, beans and legumes; gooseberries and quince.

But trying something new – whether it’s an unfamiliar

vegetable or an exotic preparation – can be intimidating. The best advice is to start slow.

If you like arugula, branch out to watercress. In baby form, it’s a perfect salad green, a sturdier, even more peppery alternative to the more ubiquitous arugula. It also makes a stellar pesto, says Diana Henry, author most recently of the cookbook “A Change of Appetite” (Octopus Publishing, 2014). “I actually like it better than basil pesto,” Henry says. “Basil can be quite perfumed. This is a bit more earthy, more peppery.”

If you like cabbage, try kohlrabi. A stout bulb with a thick skin, the flesh is crisp like a radish, and as brightly flavored as cabbage. “I predict that kohlrabi’s going to be the next big thing,” says Martha Rose

Shulman, author most recently of “The Simple Art of Vegetarian Cooking” (Rodale, 2014), noting that some companies are beginning to package kohlrabi for lunch boxes.

“Shred it to make a slaw or a stir-fry with kohlrabi and some greens,” she says. “I recently had a really great salad – feta, olives, a little diced kohlrabi. It really absorbs the dressing.”

Shulman also is a big fan of pea shoots, slender tendrils from the same plant. They taste like peas, but can be treated like greens. “Those are just beautiful,” she says. “I like to use those in stir-fries and just cook them up and serve them up as a side. They’re very good with grains.”

Think thick when tossing asparagus on the grill

By ELIZABETH KARMEL The Associated Press Grilling vegetables is magical, mostly because the intense heat caramelizes the natural sugars in them. It transforms vegetables from something you feel you have to eat into something you can’t stop eating!

And grilled asparagus is one of my favorites. Not only is it delicious, it’s also easy to make. And you only need four things – thickstemmed asparagus, olive oil, kosher salt and a hot grill.

Somewhere along the way, a culinary myth started that thin asparagus is the best asparagus. Well, the opposite is true when it comes to grilling. The best asparagus for grilling has a thick, sturdy stalk. In fact, many chefs think this is true no matter how you cook it, saying thick asparagus tends to be more tender than thin asparagus.

Once you have your bunch of thickstemmed asparagus, you need to trim it, wash it and dry it. You can snap or cut the ends off the bottoms one-at-a-time, or follow this restaurant prep trick. Take the whole bunch and cut just under the bottom rubber band. Almost always it rests at the space where the dried ends of the stalks end. If you think you are cutting off too much, wiggle the band down a little.

After you cut the ends off, remove the rubber bands, wash and dry the stalks, then place them in a zip-close plastic bag. Drizzle with olive oil, then close the bag. You can do this up to a day in advance.

When you are ready to grill, sprinkle with salt and place directly on the cooking grate of the grill. You do not need a vegetable basket.

All you need is to make sure that you place the spears across the cooking grates instead of parallel to them. Turn occasionally until you see blistered brown spots.

Grilled asparagus is instantly addictive and excellent hot-off-the grill. But add a fresh compound butter made with white wine and lemon and you’ve got a dish worthy of any king – or queen – of the grill!

Grilled Asparagus with Lemon Butter Look for asparagus with fat, firm stalks and deep green or purplish tips. Also check the bottoms of the spears. If they are dried up, chances are they have been sitting around for too long.

Start to finish: 10 minutes Servings: 4 1 pound fresh asparagus 1/4 cup olive oil 1 teaspoon kosher salt Lemon butter, to serve (see recipe below) Heat the grill to medium and prepare for direct heat cooking. For a charcoal grill, the coals should be spread evenly under the grate. For a gas grill,

Lemon Butter

Start to finish: 10 minutes Servings: 16 2 shallots, minced (about 4 tablespoons) 2 tablespoons white wine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley Zest of 1/2 small lemon 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon flaked sea salt (such as Maldon) 1/8 teaspoon white pepper In a small bowl, combine the shallots and white wine. Let soak for 30 minutes. Drain very well.

In a medium bowl, mash or stir the butter until it is smooth and slightly fluffy. Add the wine-soaked shallots, then mix well. Add the parsley, lemon zest, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix together, mashing with the back of a fork to make sure all the ingredients are incorporated. Adjust salt and pepper, as needed.

Cut a large rectangle of kitchen parchment. Drop the butter onto the center of it by the spoonful to form a log. Roll the butter in the parchment and smooth out to form a round log. Twist both ends to seal. Refrigerate until hard and easily sliced, about 1 hour. Can be made in advance and stored tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to a week and in the freezer for up to 3 months.

This recipe makes enough lemon butter for 16 servings. Prepare the entire batch, then divide into quarters, freezing the portions you don’t plan to use immediately. If tightly wrapped in plastic, the butter will keep all summer. It is delicious on almost any grilled vegetable.

all burners should be on.

Trim off the tough bottoms of the spears by grasping each end and bending it gently until it snaps at its natural point of tenderness, usually two-thirds of the way down the spear. If the spear is less than 6 inches long, chances are it has already been trimmed for you. Alternatively, you can cut the ends off with a knife.

Place the spears in a zip-close plastic bag. Add the oil and massage the spears to coat very well.

Sprinkle in the salt and massage again. Leave the asparagus in the bag until ready to cook.

Use tongs to place the spears on the cooking grate crosswise so they won’t fall through the grates. Grill for 5 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally to expose all sides to the heat. The asparagus should begin to brown in spots, but don’t let them blacken and char. The larger the spears, the longer they will take to cook. Remove from the grill and serve immediately with lemon butter.

Brushing up on forgotten kitchen skills

By MICHELE KAYAL The Associated Press Processed and convenience foods and shortcut cooking methods have become so entrenched in our culinary culture, it’s easy to forget just how much we have forgotten about real cooking.

But cooking instructor Darina Allen knows all too well. More and more of her students arrive having never cooked so much as an egg, or needing lessons in remedial onion chopping. She remembers one student who thought she’d ruined a bowl of heavy cream because she’d whipped it too much.

She thought the clumps and clots in the bowl meant it was bad.

“I said, ‘Stop! Don’t throw it out!’” says Allen, author of “Forgotten Skills of Cooking.” ‘’I said, ‘You’ve made butter!’ She was completely fascinated.”

As cooking has been rendered optional – the victim of rising restaurant culture, myriad take-out options and supermarket sections packed with pre-cut vegetables, shredded cheese and prepared foods Allen and others say cooks are increasingly losing touch with skills considered basic, or even essential, just a generation or two ago.

And that is changing the way people like Allen teach, as well as how recipes are developed and written.

“Nowadays, we have to be more specific – ‘Fold it in with a rubber spatula.’ – because people don’t know what folding is versus stirring,” says Julia Collin Davison, executive food editor for books at America’s Test Kitchen. “Now we list in our recipes more often what utensils to use: Stir with a

spoon. Use a chef’s knife for this.

Use a paring knife for this. Over the years we’ve altered our recipe style dramatically based on reader feedback.”

America’s Test Kitchen, known for its almost obsessive precision in recipe development, isn’t the only one. During the last decade or so, most cookbook and magazine recipes have begun to reflect the change in reader knowledge.

While recipe writers could once use a shorthand style that assumed a basic knowledge, they now need to be far more explicit.

“There was a time when you said ‘sear’ or ‘cream butter and sugar,’ and everyone knew what that means,” says Sarah Copeland, food director at Real Simple magazine. “Now you say, ‘Heat your skillet over medium-high heat, add oil, cook until golden brown.’ ... You took what was a two-word process and made it a 30-word process.”

But if you’re ready to get back in the kitchen and reverse the culinary brain drain, we’ve assembled a list of essentials skills experts say every home cook should have.

CHOP Knife skills are step No. 1 in any and all cooking. Cutting your own vegetables, rather than buying them pre-cut, makes a dramatic difference in the texture, flavor and price of a dish, Collin Davison says. Plus, mastering basic cutting technique shrinks prep time and makes cooking easier and more enjoyable.

“If it takes you 15 minutes to cut up a single bell pepper, dinner’s going to take you 3 hours,” she says. “And when you’re good

at knife skills, cooking is just way more fun.” Many cooking schools offer classes in basic knife skills, but excellent online videos also are available.

SEAR Searing is the act of quickly browning meat over high heat using a pan, broiler or grill. “It’s one of those instant ah-ha’s when people make the most beautiful seared chicken breast and it looks just like the magazine,” says Real Simple’s Copeland.

Certain small steps – heating the pan properly, patting the meat dry before putting it in the pan – help ensure success. Real Simple and other sites offer step-by-step videos. “Those are a perfect entry point,” she says.

SAUTE Sauteing is searing’s more delicate cousin. Used to soften and brown vegetables and meats to be eaten on their own or as a base for soups, stews or other dishes, sauteing involves quickly cooking ingredients in a small amount of fat. The process requires high heat and a pan large enough to avoid crowding the ingredients.

Learn to saute properly in a class or with an online video. And expect to make mistakes.

“If it always comes out a little bland and wan looking, you need to turn up the heat,” Collin Davison says. “If the pan catches fire, you need to turn down the heat.

People are afraid of the mess and the smoke.”

EMULSIFY Emulsifying is the process of combining liquids that generally resist being mixed together, such as oil and vinegar. It is used to

make basic items such as salad dressing, pesto and hummus.

“You don’t want to serve something where the oil is separated out,” Copeland says. “And it’s as simple as knowing to drizzle while whisking.”

TEMPERATURE Chefs test the doneness of meat by comparing its firmness to different parts of their palms. You can skip that exercise, Collin Davison says and invest in a reliable shortcut: the digital thermometer.

“We temp everything from fish to burgers to steaks and roasts,” she says. “Once you learn your temps, you’re an expert.”

Collin Davison recommends getting a high-quality thermometer and downloading a temperature chart from the Internet.

Need more help with this one?

Check out James Peterson’s new book, “Done,” a guide to knowing how to cook everything – from pot roast to poultry to pasta – just right.

BLANCH AND SHOCK You may recall Julia Child plunging her quickly boiled green beans into ice water. That’s blanching (the boiling) and shocking (the ice) and it keeps vegetables crisp and green. It also pre-cooks vegetables that can be quickly sauced, browned or broiled just before serving.

“It’s a trick that restaurants use a lot to prepare things in advance,” Copeland says.

“If you blanch and shock your vegetables in the morning, and then toss them for dinner, you just cut your cooking time in half. It’s kind of a technique that’s a short cut and food improver more than anything else.”

• VEGETABLES From page D1 Cardoons, a member of the thistle family that’s a foraged food for many Italians, also can be found at some farmers markets. “Certainly cardoons are a vegetable that people are mystified with when they do see it,” says Michele Scicolone, whose most recent book is “The Italian Vegetable Cookbook” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2014).

“You have to blanche it and peel it and then you can bread it and fry it or gratinee it with butter and cheese, and it’s very tasty,” she says. “It tastes like artichoke hearts.”

Scicolone also champions zucchini flowers, another Italian specialty that can be chopped for a frittata, tossed in a salad, or stuffed with mozzarella and deep fried.

“It may seem like an exotic delicacy, but to a hungry Italian of a certain era, it’s a vegetable,” she says. “When I was a kid, my mom would make little fritters with them. We would eat them like that for an appetizer.”

Too shy to try? You can still set your sights on new preparations for old standbys. Henry tosses copious bundles of fresh herbs and edible flowers into salads. She thinly shaves carrots, beets and fennel and dresses them with nothing but lemon, oil and salt. Sometimes carrot is paired with the spicy Japanese radish called daikon.

“Carrot is sweet, but (daikon) has a peppery taste,” she says. “When you mix them together you get an interplay with them.”

And don’t forget about spinach, Shulman says. “We’ve gotten so used to bagged baby spinach year round, but there’s nothing to compare with a lush bunch of spinach that’s just been harvested,” she says. Blanch it, steam it or hit it with olive oil, garlic and herbs and toss it into a frittata, gratin or quiche. “They are so sweet, and so worth the time it takes to get the sand out,” she says.

——— If you’re more the type to stick with the usual vegetable suspects, we’ve made it easy to at least take them for a spin in a new direction. For zucchini, we’ve given you a simple, but delicious recipe for grilling.

And for eggplant, we turn it into a bruschetta topping that packs tons of flavor.

Smoky Grilled Zucchini Start to finish: 15 minutes Servings: 6 3 medium zucchini 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 teaspoon smoked paprika 2 teaspoons brown sugar Fresh limes, for squeezing Heat the grill to medium-high. Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise, then rub them all over with the olive oil.

In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, paprika and brown sugar. Sprinkle all over the zucchini. Grill the zucchini until tender and charred, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.

Grilled Eggplant Bruschetta This eggplant mixture also is delicious over grilled chicken or haddock.

Start to finish: 15 minutes active, plus 2 hours resting Servings: 8 1 large eggplant, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick slices 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided Kosher salt and ground black pepper 2 medium tomatoes, seeds removed, diced 2 ribs celery, diced 1 orange or yellow bell pepper, cored and diced 3 scallions, sliced 6 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, torn Balsamic glaze, to serve Baguette or pita, to serve Heat the grill to medium. Use 2 tablespoons of the oil to brush each eggplant slice on both sides. Sprinkle the slices with salt and pepper. Grill until tender, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Allow the eggplant slices to cool until easily handled, then dice.

Tuna gives tacos a fresh summer twist

By BONNIE BENWICK The Washington Post Here are flavors of summer, without the grill. Each task in the recipe is brief.

If you have helping hands in the kitchen, assign duties of zesting, searing, cutting the honeydew, jicama and jalapeño into matchsticks, cooking the tortillas, dressing the greens, and you’ll be done in less than 30 minutes.

We found fresh, uncooked corn tortillas (Tortilla Land brand) in the refrigerator case at Safeway. They’re a great addition to this recipe because they puff slightly as they cook and deliver more fresh corn flavor. You may wish to double-layer the tortillas, to help keep all of the components in check.

Tuna Tacos With Lime Aioli and Honeydew-Jicama Slaw 4 servings (makes 8 tacos) Adapted from “Dos Caminos Tacos: 100 Recipes for Everyone’s Favorite Mexican Street Food,” by Ivy Stark with Joanna Pruess (Countryman Press, 2014).

For the tacos and aioli: 1 jalapeño pepper 1 lime 1 cup low-fat mayonnaise 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1/2 cup packed watercress 8 or 16 corn tortillas (preferably fresh, uncooked; see headnote) One 8-ounce piece fresh tuna fillet, preferably sushi grade Canola oil For the slaw: 1/4 honeydew melon 1 medium jicama 2 jalapeño peppers 1 lemon 1 to 2 teaspoons agave nectar

For the tacos and aioli: Heat a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet on high heat. Place the jalapeño in the pan, turning it to char thoroughly on all sides.

Transfer to a cutting board to cool; keep the skillet over high heat.

Meanwhile, zest the lime into a bowl, then squeeze the juice into the bowl. Whisk in the mayonnaise.

Peel and seed the jalapeño once it’s cool enough to handle, then mince the flesh; stir it into to the lime-mayo mixture.

Whisk together the olive oil and vinegar in a mixing bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Discard any thick stems of the watercress, then drop the greens into the oil-vinegar dressing and toss lightly to coat.

Cook or heat each tortilla until browned in spots and fragrant, placing 2 (or 4, if you’re doubling up) on each plate.

Cut the tuna into 4 equal portions. Season lightly with salt and pepper on all sides.

Brush the hot skillet with canola oil. Wait 15 seconds, then place the tuna pieces in the skillet. Cook for only 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, so the outsides have whitened/seared but the interior is still rare. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.

For the slaw: Cut away and discard the rind of the honeydew. Cut the flesh into thin matchsticks, placing them in a bowl. Peel the jicama and discard the skin, then cut the flesh into thin matchsticks and add to the bowl. Stem and seed the jalapeños, then cut into thin matchsticks and add to the bowl.

Zest the lemon over the bowl, then drizzle the agave nectar (to taste) over the mixture. Toss gently to incorporate.

Cut each piece of seared, rested tuna into thin slices.

Spoon some of the dressed watercress on each tortilla. Lay slices of the tuna on the greens. Pile some of the slaw on top, then dress with a dollop of the lime aioli.

Serve right away.

Man trolling on dating sites Weight loss, healthy diet are is not ready to fall in love best medicine for diabetics Dear Abby: I met the most wonderful man on a dating site. We seemed to hit it off.

In fact, we are falling in love with each other. But he isn’t ready for an exclusive relationship and still wants to date. He gets on the dating sites when I’m asleep in his bed.

I really care for him, but I don’t want to pressure him.

He has told me he loves me, but right now he just wants to be friends. He says I also should date, but how do you turn off love? – Sad And

Confused Dear Sad And Confused: Please don’t think I’m unkind, but when a man is falling in love with a woman, he does not creep out of bed in the dead of night to visit dating sites. He also doesn’t tell her to date other people.

Although you might love this guy, from where I sit, when he said he “just wants to be friends,” it appears he meant friends with benefits.

Because you are looking for more than that, the next time he gets out of bed to peruse a dating site, you should go with him – on

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips your way out the door.

Dear Abby: I have a friend, “Michelle,” who is attractive, intelligent and works as a teacher’s assistant in a public school. What I can’t understand is, she refuses to go anywhere without her 33-year-old daughter, “Chloe.” They even dress alike.

Chloe is pretty and doesn’t have a boyfriend.

When Chloe goes out with friends, her mother rings her cellphone over and over until Chloe turns it off.

What do you think is the problem? If Michelle and I go someplace, she wants to bring Chloe, or she calls her and has her come to where we are. Chloe complains to me she wants her freedom, but her mother accuses her of not loving her, and cries and makes her feel guilty.

Chloe is a college graduate. Her mother allows her to work, but she must come

straight home afterward. I’m confused, Abby. What can I do? – Something’s Not Right

Dear Something’s Not Right: How sad for Chloe.

Michelle’s relationship with her daughter is more “smotherhood” than motherhood. It’s not healthy for either of them. Your friend appears to be unable to see Chloe as separate from herself – which is why she wants them to dress like twins and becomes anxious when Chloe is with friends instead of by her side.

The kindest thing you could do for the young woman would be to tell her to discuss this with a licensed mental health professional, because she will need help and support in severing the umbilical cord at this late date. That won’t be easy.

There will be pain involved for both Chloe and her desperately possessive mother, but if Chloe is going to have an independent life, it has to happen.

Dear Dr. K: I have Type 2 diabetes. Is there anything I can do to cut down on my medications?

Dear Reader: Yes. Some of my patients have eliminated their need for medication with aggressive lifestyle changes. And many more have reduced the number or the dose of the medications they are taking with the same lifestyle changes.

You can reduce or eliminate multiple medications even if you’ve been taking them for a long time. The secret: You must lose weight and make a lifelong commitment to a healthy diet and regular exercise. That’s not a surprise. An unhealthy diet, lack of regular exercise and weight gain all play a big role in causing Type 2 diabetes in the first place.

People with Type 2 diabetes have elevated levels of blood sugar, or glucose.

That’s because glucose cannot get from the blood into cells, which need it for energy. It takes a key to open the door to your cells and let in the sugar that’s in the blood. This key is the hormone insulin. In Type 2 diabetes, insulin can’t

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff effectively open the cell doors.

This is known as insulin resistance.

Your pancreas initially tries to overcome insulin resistance by producing more insulin. This leads to a vicious cycle of continually rising insulin levels, greater insulin resistance and more insulin production. Eventually, the pancreas cannot keep up with the demand for more insulin.

You wind up with a “pooped pancreas.” That’s when your blood sugar starts to rise.

Losing weight can reverse the course of Type 2 diabetes by making your cells more sensitive to insulin. Weight loss also can help prevent long-term diabetes-related health problems, including heart disease and damage to the nerves, kidneys and eyes.

How does losing weight help make your cells more sensitive to insulin and thereby lower your blood sugar levels? One theory is that your fat cells make a hor-

mone that then travels in the blood and causes cells to resist the effect of insulin. The fatter your fat cells get, the more of this hormone is produced.

One candidate hormone called resistin has been discovered, and its role in causing insulin resistance is being studied.

Regular exercise promotes weight loss by burning calories. Even if regular exercise does not cause you to lose weight, it decreases your insulin resistance. Recently, another hormone called irisin was discovered here at Harvard Medical School. When you exercise, your muscles make more of this hormone.

As a result, you burn more fat.

In their instructive new book, “The Diabetes Breakthrough,” my colleague Dr. Osama Hamdy and Sheri Colberg lay out a specific program of weight loss through diet and exercise to help you reverse Type 2 diabetes. You can learn more about this book on my website, www. askdoctork.com.

It’s never too late for a second opinion

Time to trade in your old car?

There are important reasons to consider buying used instead of new.

“The biggest reason is the price,” said Doug McAllister, owner of Douglas Automotive in Crystal Lake. “When you buy a new car it depreciates over a very short period of time very rapidly.”

According to Edmunds.com the average new car loses 11 percent of its value the minute it’s driven off the lot. By the fifth year, it’s worth only 37 percent of what you paid the dealership.

“That’s the obvious advantage of buying a one- or twoyear-old car,” McAllister said.

“You eliminate taking all that depreciation on yourself, and you’ve still got a current model vehicle with low mileage and something that’s going to serve you for a long time.”

That being said, it’s important to make sure the pre-driven vehicle of your dreams is roadworthy. Douglas Automotive provides comprehensive

vehicle inspections for those looking to make sure they’re making a wise purchase for their used car.

“Certainly when you are purchasing a used vehicle it would be a good idea to have it checked out by your repair shop,” McAllister said. “They can give it a good evaluation before you buy it. For $100 or less you can get a pretty thorough report.”

McAllister also recommended consulting Carfax or another reliable commercial web-based service, to receive a vehicle history report on the car.

“You’re going to be way ahead of the game buying a good 2-3 year old used car,” McAllister said. “It makes more financial sense.”

McAllister practices what he preaches.

“In 1997 I bought a 1995 Chevy Tahoe, used. It’s been a fantastic vehicle and I still have it in our fleet,” he said, “and it’s got 225,000 miles on it.”

Maple-Bourbon Barbecue Grilled Shrimp with Couscous

Sweet-And-Tangy Shrimp Tacos

Bourbon, maple syrup team up

2 tablespoons butter 1/2 medium red onion, diced 1 pound shelled, raw large shrimp 1 teaspoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes 1/2 cup thinly sliced Peppadew peppers Ground black pepper Four 8-inch flour tortillas 1 heart romaine lettuce, finely chopped 2 ounces crumbled fresh goat cheese 1 avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced

By J.M. HIRSCH AP Food Editor Simply put, bourbon belongs in barbecue sauce.

Bourbon, by definition (at least in the U.S.), is distilled from a grain mixture that must be at least 51 percent corn.

And corn is naturally sweet. So of course bourbon makes a wonderful base for a sweet-and-tangy barbecue sauce.

It lends deep richness and combines wonderfully with so many of the sweet and bold flavors we associate with a great barbecue sauce.

So that was my inspiration for this recipe — to create an amazing bourbon-based barbecue sauce. But as I researched recipes, I was disappointed to find that so few bourbon barbecue sauces play up the bourbon. Most add just 1/4 cup, or perhaps 1/2 cup at most. I wanted more bourbon flavor, so I went with 1 cup.

For sweetness, I used equal parts maple syrup and brown sugar, both of which have the same rich caramel notes for which bourbon is known. Add some soy sauce for saltiness, some cider vinegar for acid and a bit of Frank’s Red Hot sauce for bite, and we’re off to a great sauce.

This sauce would be delicious on any grilled meat, particularly chicken or ribs. But I decided to slather it on shrimp. The briny notes of the shrimp just bring out the delicious sweetness of the sauce.

In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter.

Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add the shrimp and sugar and saute until just barely pink and firm, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes and Peppadews, then heat for another minute. Season with black pepper.

Arrange a quarter of the romaine down the center of each tortilla, then top with a quarter of the shrimp and Peppadew mixture. Top each serving with a quarter of the cheese and avocado slices. Serve immediately.

Maple-Bourbon Barbecue Grilled Shrimp with Couscous Start to finish: 30 minutes (15 minutes active) Servings: 6 2 1/2 cups water Kosher salt

12 ounces Israeli (large pearl) couscous 1 medium English cucumber, diced 1/2 small red onion, minced 2 cloves garlic, minced 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro 1 tablespoon olive oil Juice of 1 lemon 2 pounds extra-jumbo raw shrimp, peeled 1/2 cup maple-bourbon barbecue sauce 4 ounces crumbled feta cheese In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the water to a boil. Add the couscous and 1 teaspoon of salt, stir, then cover and reduce heat to simmer. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the couscous is plumped and tender and all of the water is absorbed. When the couscous is done, transfer to a medium bowl. Set in the refrigerator to cool for about 15 minutes.

Once the couscous has cooled, add the cucumber, onion, garlic and cilantro. Toss well, then drizzle with the olive oil and lemon juice. Toss, season with salt, if needed, then divide between 6 serving plates.

Coat the grill grates with oil or cooking spray, then heat the grill to medium-high. Thread the shrimp onto bamboo skewers, about 6 to 7 shrimp per skewer. Use a pastry brush to lightly baste the shrimp with half of the barbecue sauce. Grill the shrimp for 3 minutes per side, or until just pink and firm. Set skewers of shrimp over each serving of couscous.

Sprinkle each serving with feta cheese.

What I really wanted was pizza. But I was too lazy to drive down to the pizza shop to get it, and they only deliver if you order $40 or more. And as much as I like pizza, that’s a lot of pizza.

So I needed a dinner that was equally comforting, equally flavorful, but required even less effort and time than heading into town. My inspiration?

Well, aside from the pizza I wasn’t having, that is... A 1-pound bag of frozen raw shrimp.

I firmly believe if you like shrimp, you should always have a few bags of them in the freezer. They thaw quickly, and cook even more quickly. As in minutes. I decided to convert my bag into sweetand-tangy shrimp tacos, a good eat-with-your-hands sort of comfort food that would come together with minimal fuss.

Aside from the cooking of the shrimp, use this recipe just as a guide. I like to top my tacos with soft goat cheese and avocado, but use whatever you like. Ditto for the flour tortillas; corn would be fine, too. Or if you really want, take all the same ingredients and dump them over a plate of tortilla chips for easy nachos.

Whatever you do, don’t skip the tiny amount of sugar added when cooking the shrimp. It’s a trick I learned from Alex Guarnaschelli. It acts like salt to help highlight the natural briny-sweet flavor of the shrimp.

MCC to offer forklift training programs

On the rise Median CEO pay crosses $10 million in 2013

By KEN SWEET The Associated Press NEW YORK – They’re the $10 million men and women.

Propelled by a soaring stock market, the median pay package for a CEO rose above eight figures for the first time last year. The head of a typical large public company earned a record $10.5 million, an increase of 8.8 percent from $9.6 million in 2012, according to an Associated Press/ Equilar pay study.

Last year was the fourth straight that CEO compensation rose following a decline during the Great Recession.

The median CEO pay package climbed more than 50 percent over that stretch. A chief executive now makes about 257 times the average worker’s salary, up sharply from 181 times in 2009.

The best paid CEO last year led an oilfield-services company. The highest paid female CEO was Carol Meyrowitz of discount retail giant TJX, owner of TJ Maxx and Marshall’s.

And the head of Monster Beverage got a monster of a raise.

Over the last several years, companies’ boards of directors have tweaked executive compensation to answer critics’ calls for CEO pay to be more attuned to performance.

They’ve cut back on stock options and cash bonuses, which were criticized for rewarding executives even when a company did poorly. Boards of directors have placed more emphasis on paying CEOs in stock in-

stead of cash and stock options.

The change became a boon for CEOs last year because of a surge in stocks that drove the Standard & Poor’s 500 index up 30 percent. The stock component of pay packages rose 17 percent to $4.5 million.

“Companies have been happy with their CEOs’ performance and the stock market has provided a big boost,” said Gary Hewitt, director of research at GMI Ratings, a corporate governance research firm. “But we are still dealing with a situation where CEO compensation has spun out of control and CEOs are being paid extraordinary levels for their work.”

The highest paid CEO was Anthony Petrello of oilfield-services company Nabors Industries, who made $68.3 million in 2013. Petrello’s pay ballooned as a result of a $60 million lump sum that the company paid him to buy out his old contract.

Nabors Industries did not respond to calls from The Associated Press seeking comment.

Petrello was one of a handful of chief executives who received a onetime boost in pay because boards of directors decided to re-negotiate CEO contracts under pressure from shareholders.

Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold CEO Richard Adkerson also received a one-time payment of $36.7 million to renegotiate his contract.

His total pay, $55.3 million, made him the third-highest paid CEO last year.

The second-highest paid CEO among companies in the S&P 500 was Leslie Moonves of CBS. Moonves’ total compensation rose 9 percent to $65.6 million in 2013, a year when the company’s stock rose nearly 70 percent.

Crystal Lake Chamber plans for future The Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce is in the process of finalizing its strategic plan.

It is a very exciting time and there are numerous fantastic ideas bubbling up from many different areas. But like all things, we face the same challenges our members face: How do I move this great idea into a tactical plan? And how do I know if it is working?

When it comes to key performance indicators, businesses should concentrate on three critical areas: outcome, performance and process.

• Outcome: Outcome is that point on the landscape we would like to achieve or target we are aiming for. What is it we are trying to achieve? What does success looks like? Outcome often is the easiest to identify, but it is then imperative to identify what you are striving for with measurable goals to build your business plan around. Even qualitative things can be measured. If your goal is to increase customer satisfaction, what will you be using to determine a satisfied customer? Increase in sales? Retention? Referrals? Or perhaps a before-and-after survey to gauge why your customers choose to do business with you instead of your competition. If you start with the desired outcome, you can work backward to determine the steps

CHAMBER NEWS Mary Margaret Maule necessary to reach your goals.

• Performance: Performance goals are action-oriented and have key landmarks to guide behavior.

Performance goals are those metrics that measure what you will do.

For example, set six appointments a month with new customers or increase dessert sales by 25 percent.

Performance goals are an example of providing framework for wanted behavior.

• Process: Process provides the structure during a growth period or time of change. How do we accomplish this task and why? Process goals are the tools to achieve performance goals. They are the building blocks of long-term success, the micro steps toward significant change.

They are the daily decisions that lead to lasting change. For example, adding the process of displaying dessert to all dine-in tables in an effort to increase dessert sales or creating a new script that offers an additional service to ultimately lead to an increase in revenue.

Outcome, performance and process goals are the three-legged stool

CRYSTAL LAKE – Handmade, refinished furniture and home decor business Reclaimed is moving to a larger location in Crystal Lake.

The business will open Friday at 82 Railroad St., said creative director and owner Brent Hollenberg.

The building, which already had housed the company’s workshop, also gives Reclaimed about 1,800 square feet of retail space. That’s about 400 square feet more than it had on Beardsley Street.

Hollenberg and the company’s four employees spent the past few days moving more than 120 pieces of furniture to the new location, which was redesigned to serve as a design center and showroom.

The workshop is on the second floor, Hollenberg said.

of sustainable change. The use of key performance indicators provides the structure to drive change and also the feedback, with which to manage it. More importantly, the use of these three critical goals will help you to remain focused and set priorities on how to use your limited resources of time, talent and capital.

Strategy is only an exercise if it is not married to an actionable plan that is implemented and then monitored. Process metrics help us to achieve performance goals, which lead toward attaining our identified outcomes.

We look forward to the coming months as we begin to implement our own key performance indicators to continue to satisfy our customers.

We will keep you posted.

Consumer confidence inched up in May WASHINGTON – U.S. consumers were slightly more confident in the economy in May than in April, partly because they are more optimistic about future hiring and income gains.

The Conference Board says its confidence index rose to 83 from 81.7 in April, which was revised lower. That’s the second-highest reading since January 2008, just after the Great Recession began. Only March was higher at 83.9.

But the index still isn’t back to healthy levels. It regularly topped 90 before the recession.

Just over one-fifth of Americans expect their incomes to grow over the next six months, according to the survey, the highest level since December 2007.

Consumer sentiment is a closely watched figure, as consumer spending accounts for 70 percent of the nation’s economic activity.

Trust beneficiaries have key rights, responsibilities After 30 years in the financial planning business, I have been fortunate to build many lifelong relationships with clients and in many cases, their families.

For instance, I recently attended a retirement party for a client’s sonin-law who recently retired from the Morton Grove police department.

Unfortunately, my client Betty, passed away in early 2013. I lost two other Betty’s in 2013. All had big families’ with five or six kids.

Over the years, I made certain we coordinated with the attorneys and accountants to make sure all the proper documentation was in place to facilitate a smooth transition from one generation to the next.

If you have been named a beneficiary of a trust, you probably have many questions about what to expect when you assume this role.

Trust beneficiaries usually are entitled to income from the trust. The

report will detail every investment and its gains and losses.

• The right to receive annual trust reports: Trust reports contain information that includes the income that was produced by the trust and expenses and commissions paid out.

Traditionally, these reports should be mailed out annually.

• The right to request a new trustee: If a trustee is being difficult, uncooperative or refusing to do the job, you can request a new trustee. This requires a legal filing and a ruling by the court. If the reason for the request is because of large losses of principal, the trustee may be required to repay the trust.

• The right to sue the trustee: The trustee can be held liable for loss of trust assets and for income that would have been earned but for the wrongful conduct by the trustee.

The trustee has a fiduciary duty to manage the trust with due care

Investing Timothy Dooley trustee who is in charge of the trust is responsible to make sure that assets from the trust are invested well and productively. The following are some of your rights.

• The right to an accounting of investments: Trustees typically decide how the principal of the trust will be used. As a result, the law requires that trustees act prudently with investments, diversifying so that all the assets of the trust are not in one place, which would put them at risk and could limit returns. If you have questions or concerns about the trustee’s decisions for the investments, you have the right to request an accounting of investments. This accounting

and caution and must be loyal and impartial to the beneficiaries.

• The right to terminate the trust: If all the beneficiaries on a trust are “adults of sound mind,” the trust can be terminated if the court determines the intent of the creator of the trust either already has been accomplished or cannot be accomplished for reasons such as impossibility. All the trust beneficiaries must agree, including those beneficiaries of the trust who are entitled to the remainder of the trust assets after the trust would have naturally ended. Some trusts are difficult to terminate, such as spendthrift trusts where the settlor clearly intended that the trust assets be withheld and protected from the beneficiaries and their creditors.

Being named a beneficiary of a trust is indeed a welcome event, but not without its complications and, if handled improperly, unfortunate

consequences.

For help understanding your rights and protecting your inheritance, it may be wise to engage the services of an experienced trust attorney.

Transferring an estate from one generation to the next is the ultimate in family dynamics. The better prepared everyone is before the loss, the better and smoother things will proceed.

Everyone has enough on their plate at this tough time and beneficiaries react differently. A third party often is beneficial to grieving families. I know my three Betty’s appreciated my help.

Happy planning.

CEOs getting much bigger pay increases than average U.S. workers • CEO PAY Continued from page E1 “CBS’s share appreciation was not only the highest among major media companies, it was near the top of the entire S&P 500,” CBS said in a statement. “Mr. Moonves’ compensation is reflective of his continued strong leadership.”

Media industry CEOs, once again, were paid handsomely. Viacom’s Philippe Dauman made $37.2 million while Walt Disney’s Robert Iger made $34.3 million. Time Warner CEO Jeffrey Bewkes earned $32.5 million.

The industry with the biggest pay bump was banking.

The median pay of a Wall Street CEO rose by 22 percent last year, on top of a 22 percent increase the year before.

BlackRock chief Larry Fink made the most, $22.9 million.

Kenneth Chenault of American Express ranked second with earnings of $21.7 million.

Like stock compensation, performance cash bonuses jumped last year as a result of the surging stock market and higher corporate profits. Earnings per share of the S&P 500 rose 5.3 percent in 2013, according to FactSet.

That resulted in an average cash bonus of $1.9 million, a jump of 12.9 percent from the prior year.

More than two-thirds of CEOs at S&P 500 companies received a raise last year, according to the AP/Equilar study, because of the bigger profits and higher stock prices.

CEO pay remains a divisive issue in the U.S. Large investors and boards of directors argue that they need to offer big pay packages to attract talented men and women who can run multibilliondollar businesses.

“If you have a good CEO at a company, the wealth he might generate for shareholders could be in the billions,” said Dan Mitchell, a senior fellow at the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank. “It might be worth paying these guys millions for doing this type of work.”

CEOs still are getting much bigger raises than the average U.S. worker.

The 8.8 percent increase in total pay CEOs got last year dwarfed the average raise U.S. workers received. The Bureau of Labor Statistics said average weekly wages for U.S. workers rose 1.3 percent in 2013. At that rate an employee would have to work

257 years to make what a typical S&P 500 CEO makes in a year.

“There’s this unbalanced approach, where there’s all this energy put into how to reward executives, but little energy being put into ensuring the rest of the workforce is engaged, productive and paid appropriately,” said Richard Clayton, research director at Change to Win Investment Group, which works with labor union-affiliated pension funds.

Investors have become increasingly vocal about executive pay since the recession.

This has led to an increasing number of public spats between boards of directors, who propose pay packages, and shareholders, who own the company.

These fights become public during “say on pay” votes, when shareholders have an opportunity to show they approve or don’t approve of pay packages. Votes are non-binding, but companies sometimes act when there is clear disapproval from shareholders.

Petrello was the best-paid CEO largely because the board of directors of Nabors Industries’ wanted to end his previous contract. Under that contract, Petrello could have

been owed huge cash bonuses, and the company could have paid out tens of millions of dollars if he were to die or become disabled. The board changed his contract following “say on pay” votes in 2012 and 2013 that showed shareholders were unhappy with how Nabors paid its executives.

There have been other signs of shareholder concern about CEO pay. This month, 75 percent of Chipotle Mexican Grill shareholders voted against a proposed pay package for co-CEOs Steve Ells and Montgomery Moran. Ells earned $25.1 million in 2013 while Moran earned $24.3 million, a 27 percent rise in compensation for each. Chipotle spent $49.5 million on CEO pay last year, the fourth highest in the S&P 500.

“Companies are now taking the time to think through their pay practices and are talking more with shareholders,” said Hewitt of GMI Ratings. “There’s still a long way to go but pay practices are getting better.”

To calculate a CEO’s pay package, the AP and Equilar looked at salary as well as perks, bonuses and stock and option awards, using the regulatory filings that companies file each year. Equilar

looked at data from 337 companies that had filed their proxies by April 30. It includes CEOs who have been at the company for two years.

One prominent name not included in the data was Oracle CEO Larry Ellison, who is typically one of the best paid CEOs in the country.

Oracle files its salary paperwork later in the year, so Ellison was excluded in the 2013 survey data.

He was awarded $76.9 million in stock options for Oracle’s fiscal year ending May 2013, according to proxy filings.

Among other findings: • Female CEOs had a median pay package worth more than their male counterparts, $11.7 million versus $10.5 million for males.

However, there were only 12 female CEOs in the AP/Equilar study compared with 325 male CEOs who were polled.

• The CEO who got the biggest bump in compensation from 2012 to 2013 was Rodney Sacks, the CEO of Monster Beverage. Sacks earned $6.22 million last year, an increase of 679 percent. Monster’s board of directors awarded Sacks $5.3 million in stock options to supplement his $550,000 salary and $300,000 cash bonus.

8IN BRIEF Home prices rise at slower rate in March WASHINGTON – U.S. home prices rose in March, but the gains are decelerating as fewer Americans can afford to buy.

The Standard & Poor’s/CaseShiller 20-city home price index rose 12.4 percent in March compared with 12 months earlier. While healthy, that rate of growth has slowed from both February and January.

Home prices rose in 19 of the 20 cities in March compared with the previous month, with only New York registering a slight decline, Standard & Poor’s reported Tuesday.

Leading the gains was San Francisco with a 2.4 percent monthly increase, while prices in Seattle, another hub for technology firms, rose 1.9 percent.

The housing market has struggled in recent months, after notching strong growth in the first half of 2013.

Rising prices and higher interest rates beginning in the middle of last year made homes less affordable for would-be buyers.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

This week we are studying “inessing against partner” by third hand. This happens when that defender plays a card lower than his highest. This was the rule I gave yesterday: When dummy has one honor, third hand holds a higher honor, and dummy plays low, (normally) third hand saves his honor when he can insert a nine or higher.

However, as you know, there always seem to be exceptions to the rule. The most common is highlighted by today’s deal.

South is in four spades.

West leads the club three.

What should happen?

North made a game-invitational limit raise, promising at least four-card spade support with 10-12 support points (high-card points plus short-suit points) and eight losers (here, two spades, one heart, two diamonds and three clubs). South has just enough to try for the game bonus.

West’s normal lead is a low club. It is true that if this saves declarer a guess in the suit, a trump start would probably have been safer. But usually it is better to defend actively, not passively.

If East puts in his club nine at trick one, declarer will win with his 10 and drive out the spade ace. East can then return a low club, but South will put up his king, knowing that West wouldn’t lead away from an ace at trick one.

Declarer would lose only one spade, one heart and one club.

Let’s go back to the irst trick and have East win it with his club ace, then lead back the nine (the higher of two remaining cards). Now South must lose one spade, one heart and two clubs.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - As you go forward this year, your ability to trust in your capabilities will make it easier to approach others. If you state your needs in a straightforward manner, options will open up for you. Your increasing confidence and maturity will help you get what you want.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Be resolute in showing your friends and family what is expected of them and what you will do in return. Until you deal with the problems at home, they will keep growing.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may not be getting the whole picture. Don’t make a decision until all the information is available. Get the facts first. A hasty choice could cost you down the road.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may see yourself heading toward adopting a different lifestyle. Find out all you can about the changes you are considering by attending a seminar relevant to your tastes.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Don’t be pressured into spending money on an unknown or questionable cause. You work too hard to lose your cash on someone else’s whim. Say no, and be firm.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Support will be yours, with people freely offering assistance that will enable you to reach your goals. You will be able to breeze through any and all assignments that come your way.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- The creativity that has benefited your financial situation can be put to good use helping others. Offer your assistance, but be wary of taking on too many ventures at once.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Partnerships and cooperative efforts will take a lot of your energy.

Don’t act in haste. It will require patience on your part to make things happen favorably.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Go over your projects with a fine-toothed comb before you present what you have to offer. You risk failure and disappointment if you let some careless mistake slip through your guard.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Try brainstorming with friends who share your concerns and interests. A profitable venture can be yours if you are able to sell your plan to the right individual or organization.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Make sure that you are prepared for anything that comes along. You may have to make some adjustments to your original plans, but if you are flexible, you will achieve your goal.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You will be able to take advantage of any situation that comes your way.

Friends and colleagues will be impressed by your abilities, and you will gain respect and support.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Your intuition is very sharp. Have faith in what you do. Stick to your game plan and don’t be led astray by false promises. Follow your heart.
