Students head back to school District 300 teachers ready to further integrate Common Core By ALLISON GOODRICH agoodrich@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Math has always been fun for 9-year-old Olivia Reynolds, a fourth-grader in District 300. “I don’t know why, but I just like it,” Reynolds said Wednesday, minutes before the first day of class began at Westfield Community School. District 300 students were among the first in the area to return to school, and Principal Bill Doran said the year as a whole will largely concentrate on further implementation of the Common Core State Standards – especially in regard to Reynolds’ favorite subject. “Common Core has been unfolding the last couple of years,” he said. “The district has spent a great deal of time this past year developing a curriculum for Common Core in the area of math.” That means the math curriculum will incorporate more hands-on work and more cooperative learning in groups, said fourth-grade teacher Donna Sarich. “The other idea is to reduce the amount of concepts and learn them more in-depth, which is fantastic because then you can do more creative things and really build that understanding,” Sarich said loudly, talking

As a new year begins, first-year instructors such as Hanah Dillon step into their own classrooms for the first time. Having learned about Common Core throughout college, Dillon said she was well-prepared for this year’s

curriculum developments, some of which may be modified as a teacher of special-needs kindergartners. “We do still follow Common Core,” Dillon said. “Our kids might just need some accommodations and modifications made so they can succeed.”

Anyone who’s ever been in McHenry County court for a traffic offense knows there are two pipers to pay: the fine and the court fees. The judge hands down the fine, plus whatever fees the circuit clerk will charge. And when you walk to the clerk’s office to pay the fees, they oftentimes add up to more than what the judge ordered you to pay for breaking the law. A class-action lawsuit, however, alleges that the process used by the county’s 22nd Judicial Circuit is unconstitutional and that defendants over the years have been improperly charged millions of dollars. The suit filed Wednesday in federal court in Rockford claims that fees imposed by the circuit clerk’s office after cases are adjudicated are, in fact, added fines, which violates defendants’ constitutional right to due process and governments’ constitutional prohibition against ex post facto addition of penalties. And because they are fines, the total paid often illegally exceeds the maximum financial penalty allowed under state law, the lawsuit alleges. The lawsuit lists four plaintiffs represented by three attorneys, and names Circuit Clerk Katherine Keefe as the defendant in her capacity holding the office. Court fines and fees are set by state statute, not by Keefe or the court’s judges. “There are a whole bunch of [fees]

WATER COOLER Chicken crossing road blocks traffic in Oregon PORTLAND, Ore. – Portland, Oregon, police were told there was a chicken – and it was attempting to cross the road. In fact, the citizen who called the police nonemergency line on Monday evening reported that the chicken’s efforts to cross a road in a north Portland neighborhood were bringing traffic nearly to a standstill. He assured the dispatcher he was not joking. The dispatcher chuckled – and asked a clarifying question. “It’s just the one chicken?” The caller said yes. Sgt. Pete Simpson says responding officers were unable to locate the chicken. And so, he notes, police “were unable to determine the chicken’s intent.”

Car incident at hospital still a mystery By TARAH THORNE tthorne @shawmedia.com BARRINGTON – A full investigation into an empty security vehicle that was found while draining a pond on the campus of Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington found nothing suspicious, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office said.

The Ford Taurus hospital car went missing nearly 20 years ago, but was recovered by construction workers July 10 at the bottom of a 13-foot pond in front of the hospital, on the south side of the campus, hospital spokeswoman Erin Abbey said. Sheriff’s office spokeswoman Sara Balmes said the vehicle was never reported stolen,

according to police records. However, Abbey said the hospital’s public safety management team is sure a report was filed 17 years ago. Balmes said investigators concluded there was “nothing suspicious” about the car when it was pulled from the water. “There was never any person reported to be involved or missing,” Balmes said. “It

could have been parked, but not placed in park, and rolled into the pond.” Because of the car’s rusty condition, investigators could not determine what gear the car had been in at the time, Balmes added. The pond has now been filled with dirt and will be finished into an additional parking lot for the hospital, Abbey said.

KANE COUNTY

County Board approves new court case management system contract By ASHLEY SLOBODA asloboda@shawmedia.com GENEVA – The Kane County Board this week could not let one multimillion-dollar contract pass without notice. “This is too big of a thing to let slide by in consent agenda,” member Drew Frasz, R-Elburn, said of the contract with Tyler Technologies for a new court case management system. Officials at the various offices associated with the court system – including the county’s chief judge, state’s attorney, public defender

and circuit court clerk – have pushed for the project for years to replace the court’s current systems, which they said are outdated and dysfunctional. The contract was approved Tuesday by a unanimous vote. Based in Plano, Texas, Tyler Technologies is a publicly traded company whose court software is used throughout the country. Board member Phil Lewis, R-St. Charles, described the $6 million contract with the company as one of the “most significant investments” he has been a part of.

County staff have said negotiations with Tyler Technologies took about two months. The negotiated price is $6.025 million and includes data conversion, customization requests and free maintenance for one year. The $6.025 million is only for the software license and maintenance, staff have said. The agreement with Tyler Technologies also includes project-related travel expenses and a 10 percent project contingency for a total price of $6,866,582. “To me, this is a minor cost,” said board member

Ron Ford, D-Aurora, explaining its benefits won’t be fully appreciated until it is operational. On behalf of the 16th Judicial Circuit, Chief Judge Judith Brawka thanked the board for its willingness to address this serious issue. Board attorney Patrick Kinnally said the new system will provide access to justice in a positive way. “This is a huge deal,” he said. Officials involved in the project have said the new system will take about 18 months to implement.

Lawsuit argues fees unrelated to charge are actually fines • COURT Continued from page A1 that are statutorily considered fines. In McHenry County, you walk out of court with an order that says, pay $50 plus court costs, but the problem is that the only person who can order fines is the judge. People are leaving court and getting additional fines,” said attorney Matt Haiduk, one of the plaintiffs’ attorneys. Neither Keefe nor the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s office had been served

with the lawsuit Wednesday. Keefe deferred comment to the state’s attorney’s office, which likewise was limited in what it could say. “We’ll consult with our client, take a look at case law that’s been cited, and form an opinion on it,” First Assistant State’s Attorney Norm Vinton said. The plaintiffs include two individuals convicted of driving under the influence, one of improper lane use and one of speeding between 11 and 14 mph over the speed limit. In the case of the two DUI

plaintiffs, a judge fined them $1,250 and $1,000 each. But the fees added an additional $1,538 and $1,771, respectively, resulting in totals exceeding the $2,500 maximum fine allowed by statute for their type of offense, the lawsuit states. Haiduk said the fines should be part of the court proceedings in McHenry County. He said lawbreakers in Kane and other counties know what they will be paying in court fees before they leave the courtroom. The lawsuit argues that fees charged to administer programs unrelated to the

charge are actually fines, and, therefore, cannot be levied after court proceedings without due process. The two plaintiffs charged with improper lane use and speeding each paid $28 to finance the state-mandated drug court, mental health court and child advocacy center. “The fines imposed by the clerk without a court order, are void and must be refunded to plaintiffs and all similarly situated individuals,” the lawsuit states. A federal judge has to certify the class-action lawsuit before it can proceed. If the lawsuit is

certified and people can join to recoup their fines, the number of plaintiffs in the class and the money involved could be substantial. It proposes an eligible class of an estimated 750,000 people who have been sentenced since 2003 to pay fines and court costs for traffic, misdemeanor or DUI offenses. As for the amount from which to draw for restitution, the lawsuit singles out eight different fines and fees totaling more than $23.5 million paid to the county for that time period. While there are numerous

separate court fees a circuit clerk can charge, about 30 of them are the most common. And they can add up. The Northwest Herald asked the Circuit Clerk’s Office for a 2012 story on court fees to calculate them for an adult driver pulled over by a sheriff’s deputy for speeding 15 mph above the speed limit. Besides the $50 fine and court supervision for pleading guilty, the driver would pay an additional $220 in fees. The other attorneys representing the plaintiffs are Ray Flavin and James Kelly.

Habitat director: ‘It’s a big disappointment’ • HABITAT Continued from page A1 for the insurance to go through will cause a more significant delay of at least a few weeks at the next house the nonprofit has lined up, he said. Volunteers have finished removing everything they plan on replacing

and were set to start construction once this house was done. The break-in at 1912 Lakewood Ave. occurred sometime between about 3:30 p.m. Saturday when volunteers wrapped up work and Wednesday morning when they showed up to continue work, McHenry Deputy Chief John Birk said. Construction thefts at unoc-

cupied houses are fairly common, he said. A variety of power tools and compressors, many of industrial quality, were taken from the garage, Monica said. Other less expensive tools weren’t taken. The house itself sustained little damage, he said. Only the back door to the garage had its latch pried off.

“It’s a big disappointment,” Monica said. “We keep a bunch of the signs [identifying the house as being affiliated with Habitat for Humanity]. We have a big Habitat flag flying in the front yard. Whoever did it knew it was us.” The case has been assigned to an investigator and is being looked into, Birk said. Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Common Core encourages hands-on learning method

• SCHAUER Continued from page A3 Woodstock High School, where he graduated in 1995. Before he even enrolled at McHenry County College, he managed both the men’s and women’s basketball teams and continued to do so for 21 years. Pam Mason, who joined the Lady Scots in 1998 as a player, said Schauer was an inspiration for all the players and a huge help to those who

needed it. At the time, she had a young son who Schauer would watch and play with while practice was in session. Mason returned to the Lady Scots as head coach in 2006 and Schauer was still there helping in every way he could. “Regardless of what his physical challenges were, he never displayed any concern for himself and was always concerned for others and the welfare of others. He was always there to uplift you,” Mason said. “He became a

friend. He was always there for me.” Ruud also recalled Schauer always being ready to jump into a competition, often beating players on the team in 3-point contests. Despite having to shoot with his off-arm, Schauer won plenty of challenges, Ruud said. McHenry County College honored Schauer last year for 20 years of service during a basketball doubleheader, calling him a “dedicated, caring and a positive influence

class interactive and interesting – an ever-important component of teaching, she added. “My goal when [students] leave school is for them to say, ‘I loved it. I want to come back,’ ” Kooken said. “I can teach them as long as they want to be at school and they’re excited.”

the places that are most in need. The survey will remain open until Sept. 30. A public visioning workshop also is scheduled to occur sometime between September and October. Public feedback has ranged from broad suggestions such as implementing a large bus system to specific fixes such as addressing speeding on Pierson Street to easing congestion at Route 14 and Route 176 or extending North Shore Drive to Crystal Lake Avenue. The project is just one of 137 projects CMAP has started with local governments to address issues including transportation, land use and housing as part of the regional body’s GOTO 2040 plan focused on improving livability in communities throughout a seven-county region. Officials hope to have a complete plan by the spring of 2015 for a public hearing. Projects would be implemented on a scheduled timeline and funded as the city’s budget allows.

SKETCH VIEW

Not time to point fingers It would be easy for everyone to look at the half-empty McHenry County Mental Health Board building and say, “I told you so.” In 2009, the Mental Health Board made a pitch for the 22,000-square-foot expansion, which actually was a new building separate from its original 8,000-square-foot headquarters. The board cited dwindling space and future growth as the reasons the new building was needed. Opponents, inFor the record cluding a number of client agencies A new board and interim Exthe Mental Health ecutive Director Lyn Orphal are Board funded, seeking ways to help defray argued the board the cost of and fill space in the was overstepping building. its bounds and had far exceeded its primary mission to distribute tax money to agencies working with clients with mental illness and developmental disabilities. We opposed the project on the grounds that the Great Recession was not a good time to build new government buildings. The County Board green-lighted the project in 2010. The project was funded with $4 million in federal bonding authority granted to the McHenry County Board as a means to stimulate the economy and get people back to work in the midst of the Great Recession. Shrinking revenues and a new vision that has led to shrinking staff size have left the building half-empty. Finger-pointing, however, is not the right way to react to the situation. Seven of the Mental Health Board’s nine members have taken office in the past two years and had nothing to do with the decision. A new board and interim Executive Director Lyn Orphal are seeking ways to help defray the cost of and fill space in the building. Because it’s a public building financed through a unique federal bond program, there are limits on what can be done. The board can lease space to fellow government agencies, but not private interests. The hurdles that would be involved in selling the building likely would negate any cost savings in doing so, at least for a number of years. It can charge occupancy fees to the four mental health agencies that have space in the original 8,000-square-foot building. It will start doing so next fiscal year. We wish the Mental Health Board luck in its quest to find ways to defray the cost of a building that should not have been built. This board didn’t create the mess, but it has to fix it.

ANOTHER VIEW

A holiday not to celebrate The left-leaning Citizens for Tax Justice called the idea “silly.” The right-leaning Tax Foundation deemed it “poor policy.” So why do 16 states continue to offer sales tax holidays during the August back-to-school shopping season? The most likely answer is these policy gimmicks are popular among consumers and a certain set of retailers, especially big chain stores. But they aren’t in the public interest. The states that still stage sales tax holidays should do what Washington did a few years ago: Get rid of them. Maryland’s sales tax holiday eliminates state sales tax on clothing and shoes priced under $100. Virginia’s also exempts school supplies. The theory is that these tax breaks will encourage economic activity, or at least save people money. In fact, though the research on the subject is sparse, several analyses indicate that sales tax holidays fail to produce notable economic benefits for the states that enact them. Mostly, people appear to time purchases they would have made anyway so that they fall within the holiday. For example, New York, a pioneer of the back-to-school sales tax holiday in 1997, found that sales of exempted goods rose during the holiday – but that sales fell in the weeks before and after. The state no longer offers a sales tax holiday. There’s no compelling economic rationale for time-shifting consumer purchases, but there are many reasons it’s not worth the forgone tax revenue. Studies suggest that some stores merely raise their prices a bit during tax holidays, siphoning off the state’s generosity for themselves. Wealthier people, meanwhile, are much more likely than poorer people to have the spare cash needed to take full advantage of holidays, possibly skewing the benefits to the rich. That wealthy consumers benefit just as much – and likely more – than low-income consumers is itself an indictment of the policy. It is a lousy way of helping needy people buy various necessities. If the goal is to help strapped consumers purchase supplies during back-to-school season, or whenever it would be most helpful to them, then the state would be better off handing low-income residents sales tax vouchers that they could use any time, the Tax Foundation argues.

AMENDMENT

IT’S YOUR WRITE Punking voters? To the Editor: I could not believe that candidate for state representative, Steve Reick, had failed to pay his state and federal taxes, especially when he is seeking taxpayer-related employment. I checked the records and verified both Illinois and the federal government had placed tax liens on multiple occasions on Mr. Reick. Even more disturbing was when I discovered that Mr. Reick is a tax attorney – a tax attorney that failed to timely pay his own taxes. I decided to check out his campaign records and discovered that on more than 10 occasions Mr. Reick charged his campaign for gas purchases in Wisconsin. Ten separate fill-ups for gas not even bought in Illinois. Is this guy seriously a candidate? Is this an elaborate punk on the voters? Either way, Reick is a bad joke. Jack Peleck Wonder Lake

name of facility was EcoElectrica – built in 2008. The facility is tucked away between two bays and is a very quiet facility. In fact, you would have thought the plant was not operating. Since EcoElectrica is regulated by the EPA, the vapor and plumb emissions are highly regulated. Natural gas plants also are the cleanest thermal power plants out of all the other fossil fuels. For example, the emissions for sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, carbon dioxide and particulates are reduced by 99 percent, 81 percent, 58 percent and 95 percent. The pollution is reduced by 30 percent from all the other types of fossil fuel power plants. The water used is clean and purified to be used for steam. Whatever water is not used is sent to surrounding communities and other plants to be used. No one likes the idea of having a power plant, but we consume so much electricity that the current plants and electrical grid in the U.S. are strained. The electrical power has to come from somewhere.

Blues, Brews, BBQ thanks To the Editor: On behalf of the Rotary Noon Club of McHenry, we would like to extend our sincerest thank you to the community for supporting our third annual Blues, Brews and BBQ. An event such as this does not happen without the help and cooperation of the city, police and countless volunteers. We are very grateful to all of our sponsors for their support and look forward to the event growing each year. A bit of rain fell Friday night, but the rest of the weekend allowed for everyone to enjoy great food and music at the perfect venue for a summer festival – Petersen Park. Thank you again for supporting Rotary. Mark your 2015 calendars for July 31 through Aug. 2. Don Tonyan and Kathy Pelz Blues, Brews and BBQ co-chairs

Credit scores drive America’s growing inequality The other day, I got to wondering something: What is the effect of automated payments on credit scores? Automated payments, I reasoned, reduce late payments among the people who are basically responsible budgeters but terrible at remembering to mail their bills on time every month. Those people should see their credit scores increase as they rack up fewer late payments to creditors. Alas, the Internet seems to be silent on this point, or at least my Google-Fu was not good enough to discover any research that could shed light on my theory. But I did stumble across an interesting paper put out by RAND Corp. last year on the impact that credit scores have on auto lending. Even though I lived through it, I find it a bit hard to realize how new the credit-scoring revolution actually is. Credit scoring has been around for a while – the Fair Isaac Corp. was founded in the late 1950s – but it wasn’t until the information technology

VIEWS Megan McArdle revolution of the 1990s that companies got enough data storage and computing power to start slicing and dicing their loan portfolios by credit score. The auto-financing company RAND studied used uniform pricing and traditional interviews for loan issuance as late as 2000. Here’s what happened when it shifted to a more sophisticated credit-scoring model: higher interest rates and down-payment rates for risky borrowers, better rates for those with better scores. Essentially, we see a microcosm of what happened in the larger economy over the past few decades: People with steady payment histories and low levels of outstanding debt relative to their available credit got better loan terms, and were, therefore, able to borrow more money (be-

cause their interest rates went down). They got bigger, nicer cars, and auto lenders became more profitable. The financially marginal, on the other hand, found their financial lives got harder still. Their poor credit histories meant they could no longer get loans, or they could get them only at painfully high rates of interest. They would have had to drive less car – or, possibly, only whatever they could afford to pay cash for. Credit has long been thought of as a democratizing force. It enabled ordinary Americans to buy houses, cars and other amenities that had previously only been available to those with substantial capital. But over the last few decades, that process has been reversed. Financial irresponsibility is, of course, one of the things that drives a bad credit score. But so does unstable, low-skilled employment and a thin margin of financial error between you and the basics of American middleclass life. So what we’re seeing

is a redistribution of benefits not only from the financially irresponsible to the financially responsible, but also from the labor market’s “have nots” to its “haves.” Those on the left see this problem and call for the reinstitution of usury laws to cap the amount that those with low credit scores can be asked to pay. And, of course, that would keep those 25 percent interest auto loans from bleeding the family budget dry. But it would not put the Big Data genie back in the bottle; loan companies would still know that these people are bad risks. They would substitute even higher downpayment requirements – or outright denial of the loans – for the higher interest rates they’re now charging. Knowledge is power, as they say. But that power is not necessarily equally distributed. • Megan McArdle is a Bloomberg View columnist who writes on economics, business and public policy.

Democrats stress party unity Leaders, volunteers discuss election strategy at state fair By KERRY LESTER The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Faced with a crucial midterm election where Republicans are seeking to reclaim the governor’s mansion, Illinois Democrats used an annual party gathering Wednesday to provide an early look at their strategy for victory this fall. Hundreds of county party leaders and volunteers had breakfast at a Springfield hotel and later kicked back with beer, barbecue and live music during a picnic at the State Fairgrounds. Because turnout among the Democratic base typically drops off in Illinois during nonpresidential elections, officials reminded the activists of the importance of emphasizing five referendums that will be on the ballot in addition to the candidates. Ballot questions, approved by the Democrat-controlled Legislature in the spring, largely advance the party’s fo-

They ask such things as whether Illinois should raise the minimum wage, require prescription birth control to be covered in health insurance plans and place an additional tax on income over $1 million to fund education.

Attendees also were reminded of the importance of emphasizing close ties with labor unions – also crucial to driving turnout – as Gov. Pat Quinn is facing a tough, nationally-watched bid against wealthy Republican businessman Bruce Rauner. While

Quinn has tussled with unions in the past over his support for a pension overhaul cutting benefits for state employees and retirees, Rauner made fighting “government union bosses” a theme during the March GOP primary, bringing labor squarely to Quinn’s side. “Illinois is a blue state and we want to keep it a blue state,” Michael Carrigan, President of the Illinois AFLCIO, dressed in a green Quinn T-shirt, told the group. “You start with your core groups. Your core group is in this room right now. Labor is a part of that, and you are a part of labor.” Quinn told reporters that he expects a “very close race” where tried and true shoe-leather campaigning will help him to emerge the victor over his opponent. He painted Rauner as an out-of-touch billionaire “who has more money than King Midas and likes to stash some of it in a place called the Cayman Islands.”

Chicago woman found dead in Bali Police: Daughter, 1 other arrested The ASSOCIATED PRESS BALI, Indonesia – The body of a 62-year-old American woman was found stuffed inside a suitcase on the Indonesian resort island of Bali, and authorities on Wednesday arrested her daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend in relation to the death, police said. The suitcase containing Sheila von Wiese-Mack’s body was found Tuesday inside the trunk of a taxi parked in front of the St. Regis Bali Resort in the island’s upscale Nusa Dua area, said Col. Djoko Hari Utomo, the police chief in Bali’s capital, Denpasar. Von Wiese-Mack’s 19-year-old daughter, Heather Mack, and her 21-year-old boyfriend, Tommy Schaefer, were arrested Wednesday morning at a hotel in Bali’s Kuta area, about six miles

Federal officials said they’re sending letters to approximately 10,300 Illinois consumers asking for their paperwork. The letters caution that coverage will end by Sept. 30 without the documentation. The letters were sent in English and in Spanish. Illinois is on the top-10 list of states with unresolved cases.

CHICAGO – A new report finds signs of racial bias in data collected about police searches during traffic stops in Illinois. The American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois released the report Wednesday. It suggests police are nearly twice as likely to ask blacks and Latino drivers to consent to vehicle searches during traffic stops than they are to ask whites. But

white drivers are 49 percent more likely than blacks to have contraband found during such a search and 56 percent more likely when compared to Latinos. The analysis is based on figures reported by law enforcement agencies during 2013 under the Illinois Traffic Stop Statistical Study Act. Adam Schwartz of ACLU said the figures are “troubling” and the situation “must be addressed.”

Appeals court reinstates Coleman family lawsuit

WATERLOO – An Illinois appeals court has reinstated a wrongful death lawsuit claiming Joyce Meyer Ministries should have done more to prevent Christopher Coleman from killing his family. A three-judge panel of the Appellate Court of Illinois’ Fifth District on Tuesday remanded the case to the circuit court.

GALESBURG – In the first strike in Galesburg in 37 years, teachers in the northwestern Illinois city began walking the picket lines Wednesday after their union rejected a contract offered by the public school district. The 500-member union and district officials disputed the role state finances played in the breakdown of negotiations. The strike will affect extracurricular activities, including sports practices, which will be canceled during the work stoppage. School had been scheduled to start Thursday. “Given the state’s cuts in General State Aid, Transportation and other budget line items, we simply cannot go beyond our final offer and still fulfill our obligation to continue to provide top-quality educational opportunities for Galesburg students not only now but in future years,” according to a statement posted on the District 205 website from Superintendent Bart Arthur and school board President Michael Panther.

away, Utomo said. Both were being questioned but were refusing to talk until being joined by attorneys, he said. The U.S. Embassy in Jakarta confirmed that von Wiese-Mack’s body had been found, but did not give details. Utomo said Mack and Schaefer had hired the taxi and then placed the suitcase inside the car’s trunk. The two then told the taxi driver they were going to check out of the hotel and would return, he said, citing the driver, I Ketut Wirjana. However, after two hours, Mack and Schaefer had not reappeared, Utomo said. Hotel security guards found blood spots on the suitcase, and suggested that Wirjana drive the taxi to the police station. Officers at the station opened the suitcase and discovered the body.

The lawsuit was filed in 2011 on behalf of the family of Sheri Coleman, Christopher Coleman’s wife. Coleman was convicted of strangling his wife and their 9- and 11-year-old sons inside the family’s lakeside Columbia home in 2009. Prosecutors say Coleman was having an extramarital affair and didn’t want to divorce because doing so would cost him his job with suburban St. Louis-based Joyce Meyer Ministries.

News from across the state

CHICAGO – Authorities from two high-crime regions of Illinois detailed some out-ofstate sources responsible for the illegal flow of guns and the problems with prosecuting such crimes during Wednesday’s first meeting of a legislative group aimed at studying the issue. Illinois State Police officials told lawmakers that most of the problem isn’t large-scale trafficking operations, but so-called individual straw purchasers. Those people – like a family member or girlfriend – buy guns legally and provide them to criminals and others who are barred from carrying them. In one recent Chicago-area criminal investigation, hundreds of guns came from Mississippi, where gun laws are more lax, officials said. Mississippi and neighboring Indiana are among the biggest suppliers of illegal guns in the Chicago area. Lawmakers formed the Illinois Gun Trafficking Task Force earlier this year through a House resolution.

Israel, Hamas agree to extend temporary truce The ASSOCIATED PRESS

A demonstrator throws back a tear gas container after tactical officers worked to break up a group of bystanders Wednesday in St. Louis. Nights of unrest have vied with calls for calm in a St. Louis suburb where an unarmed black teenager was killed by police, while the community is still pressing for answers about the weekend shooting.

Unrest continues in Missouri ID of officer who killed teen festering issue in St. Louis suburb The ASSOCIATED PRESS FERGUSON, Mo.– In the days since an unarmed black teenager was shot dead by a white police officer in a St. Louis suburb, a big question that’s smoldered amid the outrage of many is who the officer is. Authorities have refused to release the name of the officer who shot 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson. Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson has said he’s concerned about the officer’s safety amid numerous death threats. Computer hackers also have targeted the city’s website and released details online about individual city employees. But civil rights activists and the attorney for Brown’s family, all pressing for calm amid nights of unrest since Saturday’s shooting, counter that knowing the officer’s name may help the area to heal, allowing the National Association for the Advancement

“We don’t want anyone’s life threatened. If someone like this officer is killed, then there is no justice.” John Gaskin III St. Louis County NAACP chapter of Colored People and others to dig into the officer’s background for any prior brutality. “We don’t want anyone’s life threatened. If someone like this officer is killed, then there is no justice,” said John Gaskin III of St. Louis County’s NAACP chapter. “What the officer may have done is certainly unacceptable, and we are outraged. But we want to be realistic here: This is a man with a family.” Investigators have released few details, saying only that a scuffle unfolded after the officer asked Brown and another

man to get out of the street, and that the officer’s weapon fired at some point inside a patrol car. Witnesses said Brown had his hands raised when the officer repeatedly shot him. The shooting has exposed deep racial and economic fault lines in the community, with the release of the officer’s name a festering demand of protesters, as well as activist computer hackers. In the aftermath of Brown’s death, the group Anonymous said in online postings that it was monitoring police treatment of Ferguson’s protesters and threatened to disrupt the suburb’s government websites. On Monday, someone burrowed into the city website and shut it down for much of the day. Representatives of Anonymous have taken credit. Separately, someone snipped City Hall’s fiber-optic cable during a protest that day, Jackson said. Jackson, whose 53-person police force includes

just three black officers, said he was unaware whether the hackers obtained any personal information about his officers. But, he added, “I don’t know why they’d sit on it if they did.” On Tuesday, hackers went after St. Louis County’s chief, Jon Belmar, whose department has been asked to investigate Brown’s death. Some posted pictures of Belmar’s home and family online, as well as his home address and telephone number. “Realistically, what positive could come from that information coming out?” Jackson said. “Right now, people want it so they can destroy that person’s life. That’s the only reason that group’s asking for it.” At a Tuesday night community meeting, Belmar and the county’s prosecutor, Robert McCullough, said law enforcement won’t release the officer’s name unless criminal charges are filed.

U.N.: Iraq humanitarian crisis at highest level The ASSOCIATED PRESS BAGHDAD – The United Nations on Wednesday called its highest level of emergency for the humanitarian crisis in Iraq, where hundreds of thousands have been driven from their homes and tens of thousands have been trapped in a desert mountain by the advance of Islamic militants across the north of the country. The declaration of a “Level 3 Emergency” will trigger trigger additional goods, funds and assets to respond to the needs of those displaced, said U.N. special representative Nickolay Mladenov, who pointed to the “scale and com-

plexity of the current humanitarian catastrophe.” Since June, Iraq has been facing an onslaught by the Islamic State group and allied Sunni militants across much of the country’s north and west. In recent weeks, the crisis has worsened as the militant fighters swept over new towns in the north, displacing members of the minority Christian and Yazidi religious communities, and threatening the neighboring Iraqi Kurdish autonomy zone. Tens of thousands of Yazidis fled the advance to take refuge in the remote desert Sinjar mountain range, becoming trapped for days without food or water. The U.S. and

Kurdish province of Dahuk, the U.N. said. Others have fled to other parts of the Kurdish region or further south. A total of 1.5 million have been displaced by the fighting since the insurgents captured Iraq’s second-largest city, Mosul, in June and quickly swept over other parts of the country. The United States has been carrying out airstrikes in recent days against Islamic State fighters, helping fend back their advance on Kurdish regions. At the same time, Iraq’s central government in Baghdad has been mired in political turmoil, after the president nominated a Shiite politician, Haider al-Abadi, to form the next government.

Iraqi military have dropped food and water supplies into the mountains, and in recent days Kurds from neighboring Syria battled to open a corridor to the mountain, allowing some 45,000 to escape. Mladenov said tens of thousands of people are reportedly still trapped on Sinjar Mountain “with health conditions quickly deteriorating.” The White House said Wednesday it is considering a range of military options to rescue them, including airlifts and creating safe passages. The U.N. said it would provide increased support to those who have escaped Sinjar and to 400,000 other Iraqis who have fled since June to the

CAIRO – Israel and Hamas agreed to extend a temporary cease-fire for five days, Egyptian and Palestinian officials announced Wednesday, permitting the sides to continue to negotiate a substantive deal to end the war in Gaza. Yet even as the extension was announced just minutes before a previous truce was set to expire at midnight, violence spiked, with Palestinian militants firing five rockets at Israel and Israel targeting sites across the Gaza Strip in response. It was not clear if the fighting was isolated or might shatter the truce. Egypt’s foreign ministry and the head of the Palestinian negotiating team announced the extension, which began at midnight local time. A spokesman for Israel’s prime minister had no immediate comment. The cease-fire extension is meant to grant both sides additional time to negotiate a longer-term truce and a roadmap for the coastal territory. “We have agreed on a cease-fire for five days,” said Azzam al-Ahmad, the head of the Palestinian delegation to the Cairo talks.

He noted that there had been “significant progress” but that disagreements remained over the wording regarding security arrangements, reconstruction efforts for the Gaza Strip and the permissible fishing area. The lull in violence had been a welcome reprieve for Israelis and Palestinians living in Gaza. During the temporary cease-fire, Israel halted military operations in the war-battered coastal territory and Gaza militants stopped firing rockets, aside from the ones late Wednesday. The two sides were considering an Egyptian proposal that partially addresses their demands, but deep differences have kept the deal in doubt. Hamas is seeking an end to a crippling blockade imposed by Israel and Egypt in 2007. The blockade has greatly limited the movement of Palestinians in and out of the territory of 1.8 million people. It also has restricted the flow of goods into Gaza and blocked virtually all exports. Israel said the closure is necessary to prevent arms smuggling, and officials are reluctant to make any concessions that would allow Hamas to declare victory.

Ukraine death toll doubles in 2 weeks The ASSOCIATED PRESS DONETSK, Ukraine – A rebel-held city in eastern Ukraine came under intensified shelling Wednesday as the U.N. revealed that the death toll from the fighting between government troops and separatists has nearly doubled in the past two weeks. A spokeswoman for the U.N.’s human rights office, Cecile Pouilly, said the organization’s “very conservative estimates” show the overall death toll has risen to at least 2,086 people as of Aug. 10, up from 1,129 on July 26. Pouilly said at least 4,953 others have been wounded in the fighting since mid-April. While the humanitarian crisis reaches critical stage in at least one major Ukrainian city, trucks apparently carrying some 2,000 tons of aid have lain idle at a military depot in Russia. Moscow insists it coordinated the dispatch of the goods, which range from baby food and canned meat to portable generators and sleeping bags, with the international

Red Cross, but Ukraine said it’s worried the mission may be a cover for an invasion. A spokesman for local authorities in the main rebel-controlled city of Donetsk told The Associated Press on Wednesday that rocket attacks over the previous night had increased in intensity. Several high-rise apartment blocks in a southwestern district in the city showed the effect of artillery strikes. In one, the facade of one of the top floors was blown away to reveal a shattered interior. Others bore smashed windows and gaping holes. Associated Press reporters saw two bodies lying in a street Wednesday morning in Donetsk’s southwestern Petrovsky district. The local government said three were killed, a figure that adds to the sharply mounting death toll. Shelling in Donetsk has damaged power plants and gas pipelines, leaving large parts of the city without electricity or gas, city council spokesman Maxim Rovinsky said.

Brazil candidate dies in plane crash All seven people aboard killed, including presidential hopeful The ASSOCIATED PRESS SANTOS, Brazil – Brazilian presidential candidate Eduardo Campos died Wednesday when the small plane that was carrying him and several campaign officials plunged into a residential neighborhood in the port city of Santos. All seven people aboard the plane, including a campaign photographer and cameraman, a press adviser and two pilots, died in the crash, Santos City Hall press officer Patricia Fagueiro told The Associated Press. In a solemn address, President Dilma Rousseff declared three days of official mourning in honor of Campos and said she would suspend her campaign during that time. “Today Brazil is in mourning and reeling from a death that took the life of a promising young politician,” she said, adding that Campos had been facing “an extremely promising future.” Campos, the scion of a po-

litical family from the northeastern state of Pernambuco, had been an ally of Rousseff but broke away ahead of the campaign for the Oct. 4 presidential election. Polls suggested he was running in third place, far behind Rousseff and another political rival. But his Brazilian Socialist Party ticket was widely regarded as among the bestplaced to challenge Rousseff and her Workers Party, thanks largely to his popular running mate, former Environment Minister Marina Silva, who joined Campos’ ticket after her attempt to run for president herself failed. It was not immediately clear whether Silva would assume Campos’ spot as the party’s presidential candidate. Under Brazilian law, in the event of a candidate’s death, a party has 10 days to decide on a substitute. A visibly shaken Silva spoke to reporters in Santos, reading a prepared statement

said the Cessna 560XL was attempting to land in bad weather. Sao Paulo state security officials said it appeared there were no on-ground deaths. The newspaper Folha de S.Paulo reported five people on the ground were injured. The plane took off from Rio de Janeiro, where Campos appeared in a TV interview Tuesday, and was headed to the city of Guaruja, where he was to participate in a conference about Brazil’s ports. The country’s top politicians expressed shock and sorrow over the accident, with Vice President Michel Temer calling it a “tragedy for Brazilian politics.” “Eduardo Campos was a AP photo politician of principles and Homes that were damaged by the crash of a small plane carrying Brazilian presidential candidate Eduardo values,” Temer wrote on his Campos and several campaign officials are seen Wednesday in the port city of Santos, Brazil.

A child and other stranded people stand at a roadblock waiting to cross into Sierra Leone on the border that separates Guinea and Sierra Leone. Guinea closed its border with Sierra Leone on the weekend in an attempt to halt the spread of the deadly Ebola virus.

Ebola drug poses ‘dilemma’ The ASSOCIATED PRESS DAKAR, Senegal – Doctors treating a Sierra Leone physician with Ebola defended their decision not to give him an experimental drug, saying Wednesday they feared it was too risky. Calling it “an impossible dilemma,” Doctors Without Borders explained in detail their decision in response to a New York Times story on the case. It would have been the first time the experimental drug was tried in humans. The explanation came the same day that another top doctor from Sierra Leone died of the disease, further fueling a debate about how to apportion a limited supply of untested

drugs and vaccines and whether they are even effective. Ebola has killed more than 1,000 people and sickened nearly 2,000 in the current West African outbreak that has also hit Guinea, Liberia and Nigeria. Many of the dead are health workers, who are often working with inadequate supplies and protection. At the time the experimental treatment was being considered for Dr. Sheik Humarr Khan, his immune system was already starting to produce antibodies suggesting he might recover, Doctors Without Borders said in the statement. Khan also was due to be transferred to a European hospital that would be more capable of handling problems that might

arise, it said. The experimental drug, ZMapp, is designed to boost the immune system to help it fight the virus. Since Khan’s body was already producing an immune response, the doctors may have feared that any boost would kick it into overdrive. In the end, the treating physicians decided against using the drug. They never told Khan of its existence because they felt it would be unethical to tell him of a treatment they might not use. Shortly after their decision, however, Khan’s condition worsened, the statement said, and the company providing the medical evacuation decided not to transfer him. He died a few days later, on July 29.

SEOUL, South Korea – Pope Francis on Thursday begins the first papal visit to South Korea in a quarter century, with plans to beatify 124 Korean martyrs and encourage a vibrant and growing local church seen as a model for the future of Catholicism. Highlights of the pope’s five days in South Korea also include his participation in a Catholic festival for young believers from around Asia and a Mass for peace and reconciliation on the war-divided Korean Peninsula. A ceremony Saturday to beatify Korean martyrs who perished for their faith from 1791 to 1888 could draw about 1 million people, South Korea’s Yonhap news agency reported. Although the pope plans to reach out to South Korea’s archrival, North Korea, during the visit, authorities in the North declined an invitation by the Seoul archdiocese to send a delegation to attend a Mass, the Vatican said. A few women forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese military during World War II will attend a Mass, although no private audience is expected, the Vatican said. The pope also is expected to meet with some families of the more than 300 people killed when a South Korean ferry sank in April. The government’s response to the disaster, which killed mostly high school students, has an-

So I hope this event can encourage people and bring more positive things to our country,” said Ryun Sun-hee, a 19-yearold college student. It’s the first papal visit since Pope John Paul II traveled to South Korea in 1989. In January, Francis plans to visit Sri Lanka and the Philippines. South Korea’s church, which has been growing steadily over the past half century, is seen as a model for the future. Local church officials hope for a continuing increase in believers in a country that once welcomed missionaries to help spread the faith but now sends its

The ASSOCIATED PRESS VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass. – In yet another twist to a complex and heavily scrutinized relationship, Hillary Rodham Clinton and President Barack Obama did their best to shrug off their differences Wednesday as they gathered on Martha’s Vineyard following a foreign policy split. Obama’s spokesman said the White House “is looking onwards and upwards,” while Clinton joked she was planning to hug off the public dispute with her former boss at a party on the upscale island getaway where the president was vacationing. “We have disagreements as any partners and friends, as we are, might very well have,” Clinton told reporters crowded into a bookstore signing of her memoir, “Hard Choices.” ‘’But I’m proud that I served with him and for him, and I’m

looking forward to seeing him tonight.” Clinton was making her first public comments since the fallout of an interview with The Atlantic magazine in which she rebuked Obama’s cautious approach to global crises and described a different approach she would take in places like Syria and the Mideast. “Great nations need organizing principles, and ‘don’t do stupid stuff’ is not an organizing principle,” she said, referring to a version of the phrase Obama and his advisers have used privately to describe his approach to foreign policy. Reporters who crowded around a table set up for Clinton’s signing at the Bunch of Grapes bookstore asked her whether she disagreed with Obama’s Iraq policy. “I’m excited about signing books,” she said, turning to a line of hundreds that snaked around the block near the fer-

ry dock that brings summer visitors to the island. Obama spokesman Eric Schultz declined to say whether the president was upset over her critique of his performance as he juggles several crises overseas. Schultz said Obama appreciated that she called him Tuesday to say she was not trying to attack him and said they “have a close and resilient relationship.” The birthday party for Ann Jordan, wife of Democratic adviser Vernon Jordan, was private so there was no media coverage of any hug to be had. “I believe the president and Secretary Clinton have had many hugs over the past few years,” Schultz said. “I suspect many of them have been caught on camera.” Clinton’s book signing took place at a shop that Obama often visits to pick up some vacation reading.

Corn plants in a field near Ladora, Iowa. Faced with tougher and more resistant weeds, corn and soybean farmers are anxiously awaiting government decisions on a new version of a popular herbicide. The Environmental Protection Agency is expected to rule in the fall on Dow AgroSciences’ application to market Enlist, a new version of the 2,4-D herbicide.

Farmers wait on EPA Decision could boost use of popular weed killer By MARY CLARE JALONICK The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Faced with tougher and more resistant weeds, corn and soybean farmers are anxiously awaiting government decisions on a new version of a popular herbicide – and on genetically modified seeds to grow crops designed to resist it. Critics say more study is needed on the effects of the herbicide, and they are concerned it could endanger public health. The Environmental Protection Agency is expected to rule this fall on Dow AgroSciences’ application to market Enlist, a new version of the 2,4-D herbicide that’s been around since the 1940s. It’s partly a game of catch-up for the agriculture industry, as many farmers are dealing with weeds that have become resistant to glyphosate, an herbicide commonly used on corn and soybeans now. If approved, the 2,4-D would be used in combination with glyphosate. An Agriculture Department decision on the company’s genetically modified seeds also is expected this fall. In the department’s final environmental review released last week, the USDA recommended approval. The agency said that if both the seeds and herbicide are approved, the use of 2,4-D could increase by an estimated 200 to 600 percent by the year 2020. While the USDA only oversees the safety of the plants, the EPA oversees the safety of the herbicide for human and environmental health. The agen-

Groups lobbying the agency to prevent the herbicide’s expanded use say they are concerned about the toxic effects of the herbicide and the potential for it to drift. Corn and soybeans are the nation’s largest crops, and the potential for expanded use is huge. Scott Faber of the Environmental Working Group said the EPA studies so far have not been comprehensive enough and need to look more closely into the effects of pesticides on children. “This is a once-in-a-generation decision that will have a huge impact on public health, especially on farmers and rural residents,” Faber said. “This is a moment to step back and

ask if this is a durable weed control solution for farmers.” Damon Palmer of Dow AgroSciences says the new version has been re-engineered to solve potential problems, like drift before and after the herbicide hits the plant. The company says it is moving forward at a critical time in agriculture, helping farmers be more productive so they can meet an increasing demand for food. Officials say multiple studies and reviews over the last six decades have confirmed the herbicide’s safety. 2,4-D is now used on other crops, including wheat, and on pastures and home lawns. It is the world’s most popular herbicide and the third most popular in the United States, behind atrazine and glyphosate.

Amazon debuts mobile payment app, card reader

WASHINGTON – U.S. retail sales were essentially flat in July, providing evidence that consumers have yet to shed their doubts about the economy despite recent job gains. Seasonally adjusted retail sales were unchanged in July compared with the prior month, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. Total sales rose a statistically insignificant $161 million from $439.6 billion in June. Spending dipped at auto dealers and department stores last month. The losses were offset by gains at grocery stores, gasoline stations, restaurants, clothiers and building material stores. The figures suggest Americans are hesitant to spend, which could limit growth for the economy. Retail sales are closely watched because consumer spending accounts for 70 percent of economic activity. Retail sales have flat-lined even though employers have added more than 200,000 jobs a month for the past six months. Payrolls increased by 209,000 in July and 298,000 in June. But those gains have yet to meaningfully boost wage growth above inflation, causing spending to be more restrained.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. – Kellogg said Wednesday it will step up efforts to reduce planet-warming emissions in its supply chain as part of a broader initiative designed to be more environmentally friendly. Under the plan, the Battle Creek-based food products manufacturer will require key suppliers such as farms and mills to measure and publicly disclose their greenhouse gas outputs and targets for reducing them. The company said it will report annually on those emissions and include climate and deforestation policies in the company’s code of conduct for suppliers. Kellogg Co. will strengthen cutback requirements for its own plants, building on a 2008 pledge to reduce emissions 15 percent to 20 percent, said Diane Holdorf, chief sustainability officer. It also pledged to join Business for Innovative Climate and Energy Policy, a coalition that supports legislation that favors cleaner energy and a low-carbon economy.

Life after divorce poses financial challenges There’s no doubt about it, going through a divorce can be an emotionally trying time. In addition to the emotional impact a divorce can have, it’s important to be aware of how your financial position will be impacted.

Assess your financial situation: After a divorce, you’ll need to get a handle on your finances and assess your financial situation, taking into account the likely loss of your former spouse’s income. In addition, you may be responsible for paying for expenses that you were once able to share with your former spouse, such as housing, utilities and car loans. Ultimately, you may come to the realization that you’re no longer

FINANCE Paula Dorion-Gray able to live the lifestyle you were accustomed to before your divorce. Establish a budget: A good place to start is to establish a budget that reflects your current monthly income and expenses. In addition to your regular salary and wages, be sure to include other types of income, such as dividends and interest. If you will be receiving alimony and/or child support, you’ll want to include those payments as well. As for expenses, you’ll want to focus on dividing them into two categories, fixed

and discretionary. Fixed expenses include things like housing, food and transportation. Discretionary expenses include things like entertainment, vacations, etc. Keep in mind that you may need to cut back on some of your discretionary expenses until you adjust to living on less income.

Reevaluate/reprioritize your financial goals: While you were married, you may have set certain financial goals with your spouse. Now that you are on your own, these goals may have changed. Start out by making a list of the things you would like to achieve and then reprioritize your current goals. Take control of your debt: While

you’re adjusting to a new budget, be sure that you take control of your debt and credit. Try to avoid the temptation to rely on credit cards to provide extras. Keep track of balances and interest rates. Pay off high-interest debt first. Take advantage of debt consolidation/refinancing options. Protect/establish credit: Because divorce can have a negative impact on your credit rating, review your credit report and check it for any inaccuracies. Be sure to establish a good track record with creditors by making your monthly bill payments on time.

Change your beneficiary designations: You’ll want to review the

beneficiary designation on any life insurance policies, retirement accounts and bank or credit union accounts still in place. Make sure your former spouse isn’t still named as a personal representative, successor trustee, beneficiary or holder of a power of attorney in any of your estate planning documents.

The federal panel that sets sentencing policy eased penalties this year for potentially tens of thousands of drug prisoners. Defense lawyers and prisoner advocates are pushing for similar treatment for those convicted of business crimes.

eral prison population. Tea Party conservatives and liberal groups united behind the change. In comparison, the clamor for changing white-collar guidelines has been muted. The Justice Department, already criticized for its paucity of criminal prosecutions arising from the financial crisis, has said it’s open to a review but has not championed dramatic change. “I don’t think there’s a political will for really cutting back or retooling the guidelines,” Columbia University law professor Daniel Richman said. The commission’s last major change to the economic crime guidelines came more than a decade ago, when it stiffened penalties. But as fraud sentences have increased, some judges have deviated from the guidelines to impose terms more lenient than the government’s recommendations. One judge, Frederic Block of the Eastern District of New York, cautioned in 2008 that the guidelines should not be a “black stain on common sense.” When some adhere to the guidelines but others don’t, critics say, the result can be as haphazard as if guidelines didn’t exist at all. In Manhattan, U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff, an outspoken critic of the guidelines, in 2012 sentenced former Goldman Sachs director Rajat Gupta to two years in prison on insider-trading changes, one-fifth the government’s recommended sentence. And in Florida, Judge James S. Moody Jr. sentenced a group of health care executives in May to sentences so far below the guideline ranges that he acknowledged prosecutors might think “that I’ve lost my mind.” A former Wall Street trader convicted of abusing a government bailout program could have received a double-digit sentence under the guidelines but got two years instead. The Connecticut judge who imposed the sentence last month, Janet C. Hall, called the guidelines unhelpful “because the loss aspect of the crime, in effect, overwhelms all the other aspects.”

• WEED KILLER Continued from page B6 Most corn and soybeans grown in the U.S. are already genetically engineered. Before Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide was introduced in 1976, most farmers tilled their fields prior to planting, flipping the soil over and burying the weeds to kill them. The technique exposed tilled earth to the air, creating problems with erosion and runoff and releasing greenhouse gases. Herbicide-resistant seeds introduced in the 1990s al-

lowed farmers to spray fields after their plants emerged, killing the weeds but leaving crops unharmed. Critics expressed concern that if the herbicide is approved, weeds will eventually become resistant to it, too. George Naylor, an Iowa farmer who is on the board of the advocacy group Center for Food Safety, called it a “pesticide treadmill” that needs to be slowed down. The Center for Food Safety has lobbied against expanded use of genetically modified crops and chemicals in agriculture. Palmer of Dow AgroSci-

ences said the company has created the new seeds with “multiple locks on the door” in an effort to avoid increased weed resistance. In its environmental assessment, the USDA said increased resistance is a risk, and farmers will have to find ways to adapt if they find it decreases in effectiveness. The agency said it’s hard to predict how that will play out, however. “Therefore, it is difficult to accurately predict when and the extent to which 2,4-D-resistant weeds will become a problem,” the USDA said.

the U.S. Department of Agriculture in February predicted that farm income in 2014 would sink to levels not seen in four years. That is cutting into the spending power of farmers and hitting companies such as Deere, the world’s biggest farm equipment supplier. Deere is now forecasting equipment sales will fall about 6 percent for fiscal 2014. Its prior guidance was for a 4 percent decline. For the fourth

quarter, the company estimates equipment sales will drop about 8 percent. In the U.S. and Canada, agriculture and turf sales are expected to fall about 10 percent in fiscal 2014. Sales of tractors and combines in South America are expected to fall about 15 percent, compared with a prior outlook for an approximately 10 percent decline.

WASHINGTON – The federal panel that sets sentencing policy eased penalties this year for potentially tens of thousands of drug dealers. Now, defense lawyers and prisoner advocates are pushing for similar treatment for an arguably less-sympathetic category of defendants: swindlers, embezzlers, insider traders and other white-collar criminals. Lawyers who have long sought the changes say a window to act opened once the U.S. Sentencing Commission cleared a major priority from its agenda by cutting sentencing ranges for nonviolent drug dealers. The commission, which meets Thursday to vote on priorities for the coming year, already has expressed interest in examining punishments for whitecollar crime. And the Justice Department, though not advocating wholesale changes, has said it welcomes a review. It’s unclear what action the commission will take, especially given the public outrage at fraudsters who stole their clients’ life savings and lingering anger over the damage inflicted by the 2008 financial crisis. Sentencing guidelines are advisory rather than mandatory, but judges still rely heavily on them for consistency’s sake. The discussion about revamping white-collar sentences comes as some federal judges have chosen to ignore the existing guidelines as too stiff for some cases and as the Justice Department looks for ways to cut costs in an overpopulated federal prison system. Advocates arguing that white-collar sentencing guidelines are “mixed up and crazy” could weaken support for keeping them in place, said Ohio State University law professor Douglas Berman, a sentencing expert. The commission’s action to soften drug-crime guidelines is a signal that the time is ripe, defense lawyers say. Just as drug sentences have historically been determined by the amount of drugs involved, white-collar punishments have been defined

by the total financial loss caused by the crime. Advocates hope the commission’s decision to lower sentencing guideline ranges for drug crimes, effectively de-emphasizing the significance of drug quantity, paves the way for a new sentencing scheme that removes some of the weight attached to economic loss. A 2013 proposal from an American Bar Association task force would do exactly that, encouraging judges to place less emphasis on how much money was lost and more on a defendant’s culpability. Under the proposal, judges would more scrupulously weigh less-quantifiable factors, including motive, the scheme’s duration and sophistication, and whether the defendant actually stole money or merely intended to. The current structure, lawyers say, means bit players in a large fraud risk getting socked with harsh sentences despite playing a minimal role. “It’s real easy to talk about 10, 15, 20 years, but when you realize just how much time you’re talking about ... it’s too much,” said Washington defense lawyer Barry Boss, an ABA task force member. No one is seeking leniency for imprisoned financier Bernie Madoff, who’s serving a 150-year sentence for bilking thousands of people of nearly $20 billion, or fallen corporate titans whose greed drove their companies into the ground. But defense lawyers are calling for a sentencing structure that considers the broad continuum of economic crime and that better differentiates between, for example, thieves who steal a dollar each from a million people versus $1 million from one person. Any ambitious proposal will encounter obstacles. It’s virtually impossible to muster the same public sympathy for white-collar criminals as for crack-cocaine defendants sentenced under old guidelines now seen as excessively harsh, which took a disproportionate toll on racial minorities. The drugsentencing overhaul also was promoted as fiscally prudent, because drug offenders account for about half the fed-

CLUB FUSION VOLLEYBALL

It’s all coming together for Cutler

SENIORS WELCOME

By MARK POTASH mpotash@suntimes.com BOURBONNAIS – The small sample size is one of the many dangers of analyzing an NFL preseason. But after six years of watching quarterback Jay Cutler with the Bears in various offenses at various points of development and under various coordinators, the eye test already reveals one discernible difference Jay Cutler this season: Cutler is working with the wind at his back. The Bears’ offense is just getting on its feet, like any other NFL offense in August. But there already are signs that its biggest upgrade for 2014 – being in the second year of coach Marc Trestman’s system – is the real deal, a benefit to Cutler most of all. At this point in previous training camps, Cutler still might be looking for the instructions or trying to find a missing part. This season, he looks like a quarterback who has done this before. “He’s getting better,” Trestman said. “He understands what we’re doing. The dialogue is fast. We understand what we need to get done. Our communication is very, very good. It’s a blast to work with him on and off the field.” Offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer offered a little more detail on Cutler’s improvement in his second year in the offense. “Jay has learned to solve his own problems on the field,” Kromer said. “He’s much quicker this year with his reads. He knew them last year – don’t get me wrong – but it’s happening even faster for him.

Most of the players met at the Huntley Park District facility, and they come from all kinds of backgrounds. Some are retired firefighters, some were teachers and others were entrepreneurs. All love volleyball, want to stay in shape and like the camaraderie and competition. “This is a very nice facility and we’re very happy to be here,” Desmond said, then joked that he’d like to see Fusion bring in a buffet.

About a year ago, Desmond, Dave Keys and other players felt the Huntley Park District was allocating more time to pickleball and less to volleyball. Keys, a retired Sycamore native in his 60s, called Fusion owner Bill Milborn and asked if he had courts available a few times each week during the day. Every night for 10 months, Fusion’s four-court facility hums with high school club players. It is silent most afternoons. Milborn and his staff opened the doors, more than a dozen players followed Keys, and Fusion became the first club in northern Illinois to run a program for senior citizens.

Marian grad Bulaga feels good, hopes to stay healthy OT back after missing last season because of torn ACL By ARTHUR ARKUSH

Packers tackle Bryan Bulaga of Crystal Lake talks with teammates on the sideline during the first half of a preseason game against Tennessee on Saturday in Green Bay, Wis.

GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Packers opened the 2014 preseason Saturday at rainy LP Field against the Tennessee Titans with a 9-yard scamper by James Starks off right end. It likely sounds trivial to most.

One day after U.S. captain Tom Watson said he trusted Woods to give him the “straight skinny” on the condition of his back injury and his game, Woods said he called the 64-year-old captain to say he would not be available. The decision spares Watson from having to leave Woods off the team, and it eliminates a distraction over the next three weeks before Watson announces his three captain’s picks for the Sept. 26-28 matches against Europe at Gleneagles. “I have already spoken to Tom about the Ryder Cup, and while I greatly appreciate his thinking about me for a possible captain’s pick, I took myself out of consideration,” Woods said in a statement on his website. “The U.S. team and the Ryder Cup mean too much to me not to be able to give it my best.” American players have three weeks to audition for Watson before he announces his picks Sept. 2 in New York.

Bears defensive players to watch Thursday

Bears offensive players to watch Thursday

There are few guarantees in the NFL, but one of the rare ones is, if the Bears’ defense doesn’t make significant improvement in 2014, it will once again be an 8-8 team, or worse. While the belief things will be better on defense in Chicago is rampant because of a huge influx of veteran free agents and the use of four of the Bears’ first five picks in the draft on defense, we’ve received no proof so far this preseason. The Bears’ second preseason game Thursday against Jacksonville could offer some comfort. Here are five key players to watch: 1. Will Sutton: Veterans Jared Allen and Jeremiah Ratliff may bring stability and occasional playmaking impact, but at best both are well down the home stretch of their careers. Sutton looked to me to be the best three-technique tackle in this year’s draft and could make a huge impact sharing time at the three with Ratliff if he’s NFL ready. I’ve seen the lightning first step in Bourbonnais that might make him a disruptive force in opposing teams’ backfields, but now it’s time to see it in an NFL game against at least second team competition, if not the ones. 2. Jon Bostic: Bostic was having an excellent training camp until the first preseason game against the Eagles, when he appeared to have forgotten everything he’d learned during the offseason. His natural position is weakside linebacker, which he will not get a crack at as long as Lance Briggs is a Bear. But he will be on the field with Briggs

The players who answered the bell on offense in the first week of the preseason, such as quarterback Jimmy Clausen and tight end Zach Miller, still have to show consistency and do it again when the Jaguars come to town. Here are five other players on the offensive side of the ball that we’ll be watching closely when the Bears have their final preseason home game Thursday night. 1. Jordan Palmer: Since Day 1 of camp, Clausen has been considered the No. 2 quarterback to observers, and he will get his turn with the second team against Jacksonville. That means Palmer gets the third-team reps, and he needs to have a big performance to gain ground in the competition to be Jay Cutler’s backup. Working with a third-team O-line won’t be ideal, but Palmer will get to face Jaguars reserves on defense and needs to take advantage and show off what he is best at, and that’s his knowledge of the offense. 2. Josh Morgan: For the first two weeks of training camp, we didn’t notice much that stood out from Morgan, but he had an impressive practice Monday and has the most experience and career production – by a lot – among those fighting to be the No. 3 wideout. The Bears would likely prefer to give that spot to someone on the team other than find a veteran after cut-downs. Morgan needs to seize the opportunity and be the player that had 48 catches for 510 yards two seasons ago. 3. Shaun Draughn: The surprise of camp, Draughn has received almost all the sec-

whenever the Bears are in the nickel, and he needs to make some plays against the Jags, or at least be in the right place at the right time a lot more than he was as a rookie or in the Eagles game. 3. Christian Jones: It’s difficult to project an undrafted rookie free agent even making the team, let alone earning meaningful playing time, but Jones is the only true natural strongside linebacker on the roster. He would have been a midround draft pick were it not for a diluted drug test, and he needs to prove it against the Jags to generate some urgency in the competition for linebacker spots on the roster. 4. Adrian Wilson: With all the veteran safeties the Bears have in camp, we know Wilson is the only one who can actually move the needle on this defense if he has anything left. The Bears need to know sooner rather than later to help sort out the rest of the group. 5. Brock Vereen: After running with the No. 1s through most of the offseason OTAs and minicamp, Vereen was demoted early in camp and it’s not really clear why. The Bears said it was to see how he’d handle adversity. Apparently, not so well, since he hasn’t been back with the first team since. All of the vets at safety are career journeymen, with the exception of Wilson. If Vereen can’t play Robin to Wilson’s Batman, it’s unlikely the Bears will take a meaningful step forward at the position.

ond-team reps at running back in the past two weeks, ahead of Ka’Deem Carey and Michael Ford, and he backed up Matt Forte in the opener, but we didn’t see anything aside from a 2-yard carry. He has good size, and the team likes his receiving abilities. Michael Bush had 63 carries last season – are the Bears ready to give Draughn, who had four carries in 2013, that workload? If he hasn’t won the job yet, he certainly can against the Jags. 4. Matthew Mulligan: All the talk, and rightfully so, has been about Miller and his two touchdown catches last week. Miller has also impressed in Bourbonnais catching the football. The Bears know what they have in incumbent Dante Rosario, which puts the pressure on Mulligan, who actually has received just as many, if not more reps with the first and second teams. More of a blocker than the other two tight ends, Mulligan has good hands, too, and can remind people why he’s played in 50 games over the past four seasons and prove himself worthy of the No. 2 job. 5. Charles Leno Jr.: According to Pro Football Focus, Leno Jr. did not allow a sack, hit or hurry in his 46 snaps in the preseason opener. The seventh-round pick is in a fight to make the roster on the offensive line with depth chart ascender Michael Ola, versatile veteran James Brown and last year’s backup center Taylor Boggs, among others. Another good performance would help the rookie’s chances greatly.

Cutler: ‘We’re heading ARLINGTON MILLION DRAW favorite in the right direction’ Magician early Million Arlington Million odds By BRIAN SANDALOW

• BEARS Continued from page C1 “He’s understanding everything he’s seeing. He’s seeing the defensive line. He’s making the calls of who we want to Mike [identifying the middle linebacker]. He’s directing everything and then getting us in the correct call if we give him more than one play. It’s just happening at a faster pace, and that’s going to help our offense.” Cutler seemed to make the most of the additional reps he got with the second-team offense during camp. Even after a slow start in the preseason opener Friday against the Philadelphia Eagles, he finished 9 for 13 for 85 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions and wasn’t sacked. For what it’s worth, in the preseason opener last year, he threw an interception on his first pass and saw another drive falter because of a sack. “Having a good camp,” Cutler said when the final practice at Olivet Nazarene was complet-

ed Tuesday. “We’re not exactly where we want to be yet, but there’s still plenty of time. But we’re definitely heading in the right direction.” It’s dangerous to dissect two drives of a preseason opener, but the way the first-team offense performed against the Eagles shouldn’t be totally ignored, either. Cutler’s 10-yard touchdown pass to backup tight end Zach Miller – a well-conceived and well-executed play for any time of year – was his first touchdown pass in six preseason openers with the Bears. Whenever Cutler has been asked about emulating the NFL’s offensive powerhouses, his response has been hard to refute: Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady have been in the same offense for years. We have no idea what an advantage that is. He’s right about that. We have no idea what an advantage that is. But – even if it’s just a glimpse in the second year of Trestman’s offense – we’re about to find out.

The 32nd running of the Arlington Million has the race’s defending champion and the 2013 winner of one of the world’s most important turf competitions. What it doesn’t have is a big field. Magician, who won the 2013 Breeders’ Cup Turf race, will start from the No. 3 gate Saturday and was listed as the 7-5 morning-line favorite Wednesday when the post positions were revealed. Real Solution, last year’s Million winner after The Apache was disqualified after the race, is the second choice at 5-2 and will break from the sixth spot. Beyond that, this year’s edition is set to equal the smallest field in race history. Only three other times (2000, 2007, 2008) has the Million started with only seven horses, but part of that this year might be because of the strength of the field. “I think it’s because of the competitive nature of the field,” Arlington International Racecourse general manager Tony Petrillo said. “You look at those horses, everybody’s a graded winner and people are ducking away from that, and they’re looking that they can go race elsewhere and they have probably an easier race as opposed to coming into this race. “These are multiple grade winners, not just a grade winner,” Petrillo added. “I think that’s the big difference.” Beyond Magician and Real Solution, the field includes third-choice Smoking Sun (9-2) and

The two biggest names, however, are the favorite and the second choice, and perhaps the strength at the top kept other competitors away. “I think that’s one of the detracting factors for some of these horses to come in also, is that you have those two horses in there that are the highest quality of horses in the country, and possibly even in Europe,” Petrillo said. Along with the Million, the draw for three other Saturday races was revealed. Stephanie’s Kitten drew the fifth position in the Beverly D. and is a slight morning-line favorite at 7-2. At 8-5, Adelaide is the top choice in the Secretariat Stakes and will start in the sixth spot. Defending-champion Dandino is in the second gate for the American St. Leger and is the early 3-1 pick.

Bulaga tries to regain 2012 form in return to right tackle • BULAGA Continued from page C1 Bulaga’s body looks great, as well. His long rehabilitation process, which began at IMG training academy in Florida, included trimming 15 pounds to help support his surgically repaired left knee. Bulaga still wore a big brace on his knee at practice Wednesday, but the improved agility and strength of the road-grading right tackle was fully apparent. After 2013 fourth-round

left tackle David Bakhtiari’s impressive pinch-hitting duty last season, Bulaga is back on the right side, where he continues to test his knee every day. “It’s just now getting back to the right side, pushing off the leg that was injured, just a matter of getting the muscle memory back, the quicktwitch muscles, getting those fired up again. Bulaga said he’s comfortable playing either side, but there’s definitely an adjustment, one that he compared to a baseball player trying to

switch hit when he is mainly accustomed to batting from one side of the plate. Bulaga admitted the process of regaining the comfort level he had in 2012 is ongoing, but the mental hurdle of returning from consecutive season-ending injuries was cleared in organized team activities, the first time he lined up against a player trying to get around or through him. For Bulaga, 25, he’s simply grateful to be back in the mix, on an ascending unit, again playing alongside his teammates and friends.

Arguably no unit in football requires the communication and chemistry of an offensive line, and Bulaga said getting back up to speed with right guard T.J. Lang is going well. “T.J. and I, we’re very good friends off the field, too,” he said, adding that he feels fortunate to play next to one of the finest guards in football. We spend a lot of time together … so I don’t think it takes that long. The biggest thing is getting used to his footwork, what he likes to do, then knowing what I’m comfortable with and meshing those

together solidly.” Entering a contract year, Bulaga would seem to be rounding into shape at the perfect time. After the versatile Don Barclay went down for the season with a knee injury of his own last week, Bulaga understands the opportunity in front of him to show the Packers – and 31 other teams – he’s over the injury bug and ready to become a fixture. “Everything so far has gone really well,” he said. “I just can’t wait for the season to begin.”

“Anybody can play,” Keys said. “There were a lot of people at Huntley just like me who just wanted to play. And I thought I could get better at it.” The league’s popularity has prompted Milborn to expand it. Players can register for fall leagues at clubfusionvb.org throughout the first week of September. Games begin the following week. The cost is $100 for 13 weeks – barely enough to turn the lights on at Fusion, but affordable for many living on retirement incomes. There are no cuts and no set teams. There are no position players; everyone sets, digs, hits and plays six rotations. There are no referees or coaches. Players range from novices to those with more polished skill sets. That doesn’t mean it’s not competitive. The players won the Six County Senior Olympics in Aurora in July, and a handful played on last year’s championship team as well. Soon, Fusion will hang the team’s championship banner on the wall next to Court 4, where the team prefers to play. “They’re very competitive,” Fusion Business Office Manager Tammi Haverly said. “They work really hard, and it’s great exercise. And volleyball is something you can play forever. You can play it in your backyard, or you can play it somewhere like here.” “They still have that fire in them,” Milborn added. “Volleyball is a good sport for them.”

Choosing correct hook really can make difference A lot of fishermen take hooks for granted, and that is a big mistake. There is one factor about hooks that makes all the difference in fishing success and failure: sharpness. Head to your favorite tackle shop and you’ll find pegs full of packages of shiny hooks. You’ll find many shapes, endless sizes, a number of colors, and models affixed with the latest doodads such as bait holders. Look past all that, pick the size that fits your purpose and buy the sharpest hook you can afford. In the pressured waters of northern Illinois, you’ll get fewer bites than if you were fishing in Canada. In that case, isn’t it better to be able to set the hook firmly and penetrate a fish’s mouth with a sharp hook than to lose a fish because of a dull hook point? I’d certainly say so. I am a fan of Gamakatsu hooks. They are so sharp that a fumblefingers like me can inflict serious damage to his hands. These hooks are pricey, but I feel they are worth the money. A fairly new brand, Lazer Trokar hooks, are too expensive for my budget. This is what I mean by purchasing the sharpest you can afford. A good tip is to get your hands on a plastic-handled hook file. If you get in the habit of always sharpening your hooks when you tie them on your line, you’ll save plenty of bucks over time and you’ll always have super-sharp hooks. A lot of lures come equipped with very poor hooks, so I always give my lures a little sharpening before I use them. Another reason to make sure you are always utilizing sharp hooks is the prevalence of fishing with plastic baits. If you rig your plastics in weedless fashion, your hook will have to punch through the plastic even before it needs to puncture the mouth of the fish. I am a big fan of the octopus-style hooks when fishing wacky-style with Senkos. What about color? Have you seen the ads for red hooks that say that the fish see the red hook color as blood from the bait it is holding? Have you ever seen the ads for red fishing line that say it is invisible under water? OK, then who is telling the truth and who is fibbing? I’m not sure, but I use red hooks whenever I can. My evidence is anecdotal, but I think I get more bites using red hooks. How about size? When fishing for panfish, I recommend using the smallest hook you can tie on without difficulty. Remember that the hook should match the bait, sizewise. Use a larger hook for skewering nightcrawlers than you would for impaling redworms. When fishing plastics, I think that I’d rather my hook to be too large than too small. I also make sure that the gap between the point and the shank is large enough. Some hooks come built too narrow for my liking. Longer shanks are easier to remove when a fish swallows your bait down deep. They give you something to grab with your pliers. Of course, you can’t always use a hook with a long shank. Speaking about fish swallowing hooks deeply, that is a tough situation and the fish usually dies when released after being disengaged from a hook in its gut. Fish swallow the hooks like this when still-fishing and the fisherman isn’t paying attention. It often occurs when taking kids fishing. One way to alleviate that situation is through the use of circle-style hooks. The circle hooks roll in the mouth of the fish when it bites the bait. The hook positions itself correctly and the fish almost sets the hook

Ventura: ‘We got hosed’

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley on itself. Circle hooks are a truly nifty invention.

FISHING REPORT Northern Illinois: Dave Kranz from Dave’s Bait, Tackle and Taxidermy in Crystal Lake reports: “I was able to fish a bass tournament at the Madison Chain of Lakes last Saturday. We found fish in weed pockets and caught them with pegged plastic craws and found some fish in slop and caught them on Spro frogs. These techniques should work for you on any similar waterway. We had 17.60 pounds of bass and that was good for an eighth place finish and a $150.00 check out of a 45 boat field. The pike fishing on Lake Delevan has been great! Use bigger buck tails on the buoy lines and you should have a good day. The Illinois dove season starts September 1.” Call 815-455-2040 for an updated report. Honest John from C.J. Smith’s resort on Grass Lake says “The striper bite is on. To locate them, watch for the seagulls circling above the lakes, especially Bluff Lake. The huge school of stripers will be right below. Also try working the channel from the mouth of Bluff Lake all the way to the Spring Lake Bridge. Tip a small gold hook or mini-mite jig with a small minnow for some awesome action. Marble Spinners and Rooster Tails are also working well. The hot spot for crappies is Airport bay on Bluff Lake. Also try the south side of Petite Lake under the willow tree. Try a medium Mini-Mite jig with a weighted bobber tipped with a large fathead minnow. “Catfish are biting in the channels. Try the shallow channels around Spring Lake. Nightcrawlers, stink bait, shrimp or large fathead minnows will do the trick. “Largemouth bass are taking nightcrawlers, crankbaits and plastics. Work the lily pads, weedlines and any brush piles along lake, especially in the Spring Lake channels to find them. “Bluegills are in the channels. Work under piers and boats just south of the Spring Lake/Grass Lake Road Bridge. Pieces of nightcrawler, redworms or waxworms on a No. 8 hook with a small piece of split shot and small bobber work very well “Walleye action is good on the south shore of Petite Lake. East of the willow tree along the steel seawall is a good spot to try. Also try drifting the sandbar in Lake Marie for some nice ones. XL fathead minnows, nightcrawlers or large leeches are all good baits. “Northern pike have been showing up in the southwest bay of Petite Lake. A yellow Mepps Spinner or Flicker Shad (Fire Tiger or Chartreuse are hot colors) have been very successful.” Lake Michigan: “Some Kings have finally started to show up in the Illinois waters of Lake Michigan this past week. Most are being caught early in the morning. Moonshine’s Crabface, and a white Hot Spot flasher with a mirage fly tied 24 inches behind, have been two very good baits. Fish were caught from 50 to 210 feet of water. Most were caught in the top 70 feet of the water column. Some lake trout and steelheads added to the catch.” The Lake Michigan Fishing Report is provided by Captain Bob Rossa of Migrator Charters based out of Northpoint Marina - www.

The Cubs’ Javy Baez follows through on a home run off Brewers pitcher Kyle Lohse in the third inning Wednesday at Wrigley Field.

CUBS 4, BREWERS 2

Cubs count on Baez learning By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com CHICAGO – If anybody wants to nitpick, Javy Baez still hasn’t drawn a walk in nine major-league games. He hasn’t stolen a base, hit a triple or figured out this global-warming problem yet, either – although he did threaten to punch another hole in the ozone layer Wednesday night with a third-inning home run. When that shot off Milwaukee Brewers starter Kyle Lohse cleared the left-field bleachers and continued onto Waveland Avenue, it was another long-distance call to the Cubs’ future – if not another ad for ticket sales these last six weeks of the season. Then, again, it looked as if he nearly pulled every muscle in his body on swings and misses against Marco Estrada in the seventh before popping up the third pitch to first base during a 2-for-4 performance in the Cubs’ 4-2 victory over the Brewers. “It’s probably as expected,” Cubs general manager Jed Hoyer said of Baez’s first week and a half in the majors since the No. 7 prospect in baseball made his debut last week. “There’s been some high-highs and been some lows. We’ll probably settle somewhere in the middle at some point. “But this is why he’s here, so he can play every day, and he can have those experiences. And the way he is as a player, he’ll learn from those things.” The Cubs are counting on it. And on Jorge Soler learning a few things when he joins the club, likely in September. And Kris Bryant next year. And so on. For now, Baez is the first real taste of The Plan for Cubs

Cubs win with long ball CHICAGO – Javy Baez and Anthony Rizzo hit back-to-back home runs as the Cubs defeated Kyle Lohse and the Milwaukee Brewers, 4-2, Wednesday night. Starlin Castro, Rizzo and Baez, the nucleus of Theo Epstein’s rebuilding effort, drove in all four runs against the NL-leading Brewers. Castro and Chris Coghlan contributed three hits each. Cubs starter Tsuyoshi Wada (2-1) was coasting until he was chased in the seventh, when he allowed consecutive home runs to Rickie Weeks and Martin Maldonado. Wada allowed two runs on five hits in 62/3 innings. He struck out five and walked one.

– The Associated Press fans. The guy with 40- to 50-homer, 175-strikeout potential in a Gary Sheffield-like swing. The guy who showed Wednesday night he’s worth watching every time he comes to the plate, even if the team’s results and place in the standings aren’t. “You can already see the talent,” Hoyer said. “You see the things he does well. And he’ll just keep learning.” Just look at the weekend. After hitting three homers in his first three big-league games, last week in Colorado, Baez struck out four times in Friday’s Wrigley Field debut and three more times Saturday against the Tampa Bay Rays. By Sunday, the kid who might love swinging the bat more than anybody in a Cubs uniform this side of Starlin Castro, stood at the plate for a six-pitch at-bat in which he didn’t swing once.

SAN FRANCISCO – This 7-1 loss unraveled so quickly for the White Sox and Jose Quintana. Breezing along with a dominant, two-hit performance through six innings, two bloop singles and an overturned call on a routine out at home plate Wednesday afternoon changed everything. And you think Sox manager Robin Ventura has no fire? After Giants manager Bruce Bochy challenged a relatively easy out call on catcher Tyler Flowers’ tag of pinch runner Gregor Blanco, a video replay crew in New York ruled that Flowers’ left leg blocked Blanco’s path to home plate while first baseman Jose Abreu was making a short throw home. There was no contact on the play, other than Flowers’ tag. After a five-minute delay, Gregor was ruled safe with the Giants’ tying run, and Ventura, who had unsuccessfully challenged a similar play the night before, sprinted out of the dugout, pointing at plate umpire Chris Segal and kicking dirt on home plate several times. It was the 10th ejection of Ventura’s three year career, but never has he lost it quite like that. His explosion ranks as one of the season’s best in all of baseball. “In the spirit of playing baseball and what they’re trying to do with the rule … it’s not doing what they intended it to do, which is protecting the catcher,’’ Ventura said. “The guy is out. That was never a question. I don’t know what else you can do. We obviously disagreed with it. We got hosed.” Instead of two outs and no runs it, the game was tied and the inning escalated with a walk to Joaquin Arias and a third soft single of the seventh by Angel Pagan, this one off reliever Ronald Belisario that scored two runs. After two more RBI singles, right fielder Adam Dunn dropped Pablo Sandoval’s fly ball in right-center field when he and center fielder Leury Garcia got their signals crossed. That botched play scored two more runs and capped the nightmarish inning. “We didn’t handle the rest of it very well,” Ventura said. “Q pitched a great game.”

BIG TEN PREVIEW: EAST DIVISION

OSU, MSU will vie for crown the Devin connection. Quarterback Devin Gardner and wide receiver Devin Fuchness have the goods to be one of the best offensive duos in the league. Will they bounce back after an inconsistent 2013 season?

By SETH GRUEN sgruen@suntimes.com Mark your calendars. Ohio State’s game Nov. 8 at Michigan State is the game of all games on the Big Ten schedule this year. The rematch of the Big Ten title game last year will be a de facto conference semifinal. The Buckeyes and Spartans represent the Big Ten’s best shot to send a team to the College Football Playoff. Smart money is on one of these teams, both of which should be in the top 10 of any preseason poll, to win the conference championship. The East welcomes the two conference newbies, Maryland and Rutgers. Will they struggle adjusting to the Big Ten? Or will teams struggle against them? The latter might be a question that Michigan, Penn State and Indiana have to answer, but Ohio State and Michigan State should beat Maryland and Rutgers on talent alone. A look at how the East stacks up:

1. Ohio State Between the Buckeyes and Spartans, the nod goes to the team that hasn’t lost a regular-season game under coach Urban Meyer. A fresh-

4. Penn State

Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller figures to be a Heisman Trophy candidate. faced offensive line is the biggest question mark for the Buckeyes, and it could present a problem against the Spartans. Quarterback Braxton Miller should remain in the Heisman conversation all year.

2. Michigan State The Spartans will push for the division crown, but it will be tougher without linebacker Max Bullough and defensive back Darqueze Dennard. That said, junior defensive end Shilique Calhoun could be an even bigger playmaker than both of them. Expect quarterback Connor Cook to take a step forward.

3. Michigan Brady Hoke’s job rests on

By the end of his sophomore season, Christian Hackenberg could be considered among the best quarterbacks in the country. James Franklin’s first season in State College will rest on Hackenberg’s right arm.

5. Maryland With all but four starters back from a 7-6 team, Maryland should improve. But the Terrapins will need Brandon Ross to be a 1,000-yard rusher.

6. Indiana With 17 starters returning, it’s get better or get out for coach Kevin Wilson. But the Hoosiers look much like the team that won three conference games last year. Hopefully, the offense will provide more exciting moments.

7. Rutgers It will be a rough welcome to the Big Ten for the Scarlet Knights, who host Penn State and Michigan before traveling to Ohio State and Nebraska.

WEDNESDAY VS. COLORADO San Diego’s Jake Goebbert, a Hampshire High School graduate, went 0 for 1, striking out as a pinch hitter in the sixth inning of the Padres’ 5-3 win. It was Goebbert’s first at-bat since being recalled from Triple-A and joining the Padres on Tuesday. He is batting .245 this season.

FIVE-DAY PLANNER

BULLS

TEAM

Rose, Team USA head to UC By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com It was more than just an endorsement. A shaking of the head in almost disbelief usually is. Asked in Las Vegas two weeks ago about the play of Derrick Rose, Team USA coach Mike Krzyzewski was searching for adjectives. He really couldn’t find enough. But now this weekend, Bulls fans will get their first look at the hype, as Rose and USA Basketball resume training for the FIBA World Cup, as well as playing an exhibition game with Brazil at the United Center on Saturday night. It will continue to be all eyes on Rose, who played just 10 regular-season games since the 2012 playoffs, undergoing two separate season-ending knee surgeries. As for Rose, expect him to continue to keep it simple, even as good as he looked in the first week of the camp. “We just have to keep talking to each other, keep giving each other confidence,” Rose said recently. “The thing is gelling quick. Learning players’ tendencies. “I usually say whatever the game needs, that’s what I’m going to put into the game, man. I learned that by actually playing through my mistakes with the first injury. Just seeing that I was forcing everything. It wasn’t just the way I was playing, I

The Bulls’ Derrick Rose and team USA will face Brazil on Saturday at the United Center. wasn’t enjoying the game like I was before the injury. Now it feels like I appreciate it a little bit more, just enjoy being on the court and playing the game I love playing.” Not that circumstances haven’t changed for Rose. Team USA suffered two tough losses, first with the Paul George injury and then with NBA MVP Kevin Durant dropping off the roster because of what he claimed was exhaustion. So while Rose may be counted on to do more than first anticipated, those that know his game aren’t worried about him trying to do too much. “I don’t see him forcing any-

thing,” Bulls general manager Gar Forman said. “I see him letting the game come to him and then when he has opportunities to make plays, he makes them. He’s playing with what appears to me great confidence. “When I say he’s playing with confidence, he is playing with a real nice pace to his game. Obviously, he is so athletic that he’s going to make explosive plays. But I don’t see him rushing in anything that he’s doing.” Bulls open against New York: The NBA announced the 2014-15 regular-season schedule Wednesday, with the Bulls opening up against Carmelo Anthony in New York on Oct. 29. There will be little time to breathe, coming back for the home opener on Halloween night, and hosting LeBron James and the new-look Cavs. It will be one of four meetings with James and their division rivals, going to Cleveland on Jan. 19, hosting Cleveland on Feb. 12, and then back to Cleveland on April 5. The circus trip will again be the longest road trip for the Bulls, beginning on Nov. 17 in Los Angeles against the Clippers and ending Nov. 30, in Brooklyn. The Bulls once will again have a Christmas game, hosting former power forward Carlos Boozer and the Los Angeles Lakers that night. As far as the end of the season, the Bulls will finish at home against Philadelphia, at Brooklyn and then home against Atlanta on April 15.

Drinking becomes a problem for Many services available to help wife who is pressured to imbibe care for ailing or aging parents Dear Abby: I’m not much of a drinker. I have nothing against drinking or those who do. I just do not like the taste of alcohol. Worse, I have a very low tolerance for it. After only half a glass of wine, I become so sleepy I can barely keep my eyes open. It makes me feel physically awful. My husband takes offense at the fact that I don’t want to drink. When we’re out with friends, he’ll have three or four beers and pressure me to the point of embarrassment in front of them until I finally give in and order a glass of wine. Of course, I then spend the rest of the evening feeling terrible. When we get home, he’ll want to be intimate, but I just want to go to sleep, which aggravates him further. I have tried for several years to discuss this with him, but he can’t explain why he does this. What can I do? – Just Water, Please Dear Just Water: Your husband is a drinker. He might be self-conscious about the amount he imbibes and feels less so if he has a drinking

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips buddy (that’s you), willing or not. To say the least, his behavior is inconsiderate – and I mean all of it. When someone is involved with a problem drinker, and from your description of his behavior your husband is one, the place to start looking for answers is Al-Anon. To find a meeting close to you, go online to www.al-anon.org. Please don’t wait. Dear Abby: My best friend, “Cecily,” has just come out to me as being a lesbian. We are both 15. I have tried my best to make her feel accepted and comfortable. But whenever she wants something from me and I refuse, she says I’m treating her badly because she’s gay. I let it go the first couple of times, but now she does this every time she wants something. When I finally confronted her about it, she went to her mother and said I was bullying her because

of her being gay. Her mother yelled at me and told me to get my act together “or get out of her life.” Her mother is like a second mother to me. Other than this, Cecily has been a great friend. This has gotten way out of hand. Abby, I have tried everything. What do I do? – Way

Out Of Hand In New York Dear Way Out Of Hand: Cecily may react this way because she’s newly out and hypersensitive to being discriminated against for being gay. (For too many gay teens, this is a sad reality.) Consider asking your mother to talk to Cecily’s mother and explain you’re not homophobic, but feel her daughter is being manipulative. If the woman hears it from another adult, she may talk to her daughter about it. However, if that doesn’t work, you may have to decide if it’s worth it to continue the relationship under these circumstances. • Write Dear Abby at www.dearabby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Dear Dr. K: I’m a working mother. I also care for my ill and aging father. Are there professionals or services that can help me care for him? Dear Reader: There can be plenty of rewards in caring for an ailing parent. I’ve had many patients and friends who have told me they got closer to their parents in the process of caring for them. However, that care takes a toll, especially when you’re also juggling other responsibilities. Help is available from various organizations. Here are some services and professionals you might want to look into. Job responsibilities and services may vary from state to state. • Adult day services offer a variety of programs. They may include transportation, nursing care, meals, personal care (such as help with bathing or toilet use), social opportunities or rehabilitation. • Certified nurse’s aides can help with activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing and personal care. They cannot administer medications. • Home health aides may

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff administer medications. They also perform personal services such as bathing and dressing. • Nurses offer skilled nursing care, such as inserting IV lines, cleaning wounds and changing bandages. They also can administer medications. • Hired companions and homemakers. You can hire someone who is not a trained medical professional to help with meals, shopping, laundry and transportation. • Meal programs. Your father might be able to get hot, nutritious meals brought to the home through programs such as Meals on Wheels (www.mowaa.org). Senior centers and community or religious groups may have similar services. • Case managers coordinate services and help manage red tape. They also can communicate information between patient, caregiver, family and physicians.

• Physical, occupational or speech therapists may do inhome therapy sessions. • Respite care workers provide caregivers with time off from their caregiving duties. • Transportation services. Some communities, religious and community organizations and senior centers offer free or low-cost transportation to medical appointments for seniors or people who are disabled. There are more support services for ailing older people today in the U.S. than when I went to medical school. It surprises me how many of my patients don’t know of this, and how many doctors don’t refer their patients to these services. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ website, www.healthfinder. gov, may be able to refer you to services in your community. Ask your father’s doctor about other resources in your community. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

Quiz can help parents determine if their teen is using drugs in and enroll him in summer school. He seemed relieved he had a new chance and started out doing really well. Lately he has been hanging out with some unsavory-looking guys, and his grades are not as good as they should be. My wife and I have discussed this, and she thinks he

might be doing drugs. When I confronted him with this possibility, he said he is drug-free. We have searched his bedroom several times and haven’t found any drug evidence, but we are still worried. Since we are not up on exactly what to look for to determine if a teen is doing drugs, we thought you could tell us. I’m sure there are other parents who also would be interested in this information. – Father, New Orleans Father: Keeping tabs to determine if drugs are a part of a child’s life is extremely

important. A group called Parents Who Care has provided a list of questions that could help determine if a teen is involved in drugs, including alcohol. With the group’s permission, I am sharing their quiz with you and other parents. The more “yes” answers, the greater the chance drugs are involved.

Do You As a Parent? – At Home Does the Teen? 1. Find it difficult to talk with your child – 1. Avoid the family 2. Make excuses for bad behavior – 2. Disregard or break rules

3. Blame your spouse for the problem – 3. Receive mysterious phone calls 4. Argue with your spouse over this child – 4. Listen to loud rock music alone 5. Blame the school for the problems – 5. Act rebellious 6. Blame his friends for the problems – 6. Have friends you don’t like 7. Blame his friends’ parents – 7. Have friends you don’t know 8. Dread coming home – 8. Argue over nothing 9. Avoid being with your family – 9. Use bad language

Dr. Wallace: When my wife and I divorced two years ago, she received custody of our then-10-year-old daughter and our then-14-year-old son. Six weeks before school was out this year, Eric and his friends were caught lighting a fire in the boys’ restroom. He was expelled for the remainder of the school year. His mother was at wit’s end and asked if our son could live with my wife and me. She felt it was a good idea to separate him from his delinquent friends. I love my son, and my wife and I agreed to take him

CASTS OF ‘ALADDIN’ MOURN ROBIN WILLIAMS

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Thursday, August 14, 2014 • Section C • Page 8

NEW YORK – The casts of “Aladdin” – both the 1992 film and the current Broadway hit – are honoring Robin Williams, who played the manic, fast-talking, unforgettable Genie. Scot Weinger, who played Aladdin in the animated film, said Wednesday that working with his hero was surreal and magical, adding the world has “lost a bright light.” Linda Larkin, who voiced Princess Jasmine in the movie, called Williams a “wild, soulful, boundless spirit,” characterizing his Genie character from the movie as “the best gift ever.”

Justin Bieber pleads guilty in deal in Florida MIAMI – Pop singer Justin Bieber’s guilty plea to charges of careless driving and resisting arrest puts an end to a legal saga that began seven months ago inside a rented Lamborghini at what police called an illegal drag race. The judge who accepted Bieber’s plea Wednesday said it’s time for the 20-yearold singer to stop his misbehavior – especially for his millions of young fans. “I hope that he realizes that his actions not only lead to consequences that affect him but they lead to consequences that affect others that are looking up to him as a role model,” Miami-Dade County Judge William Altfield said at a hearing. “He just hopefully will get the message. He will grow up. He will use his talents positively for young persons.” Bieber attorney Howard Srebnick said the judge’s message will be relayed to the singer, who was not at the hearing. “We will turn this into a positive experience,” Srebnick said. “We’re relieved that it’s over.” The plea deal Bieber struck with prosecutors includes a 12-hour anger management course, a $50,000 charitable contribution already made to a local children’s organization and a $500 fine. The deal allows Bieber to avoid a conviction of driving under the influence and includes no jail time. A charge of driving with an expired license was dropped when Bieber showed proof he had a valid one.

BUFFALO, N.Y. – Conrad Bassett-Bouchard started his championship Scrabble game Wednesday with the word “zilch” and finished with the opposite – the $10,000 prize and title of national Scrabble champion. The 24-year-old player from Portland, Oregon, beat 29-year-old Jason Li of Montreal in the final round of the five-day 25th National Scrabble Championships played at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center. The tournament’s second seed, Bassett-Bouchard said he knew luck was with him when he drew a wildcard blank tile and an “s’’ on his first seven-tile rack. He led for most of the match, winning by a score of 477-350. “I was playing catch-up right to the end,” said Li, the 18th seed, who had the letters to play an obscure but potentially high-scoring word but didn’t see it, creating a buzz among experienced onlookers. “He’s going to be kicking himself for missing ‘gramarye,’ ” tournament director John Chew said after the play.

Cronenberg, Godard in New York Film Fest lineup NEW YORK – The New York Film Festival has announced a lineup heavy on the hits from May’s Cannes Film Festival, including David Cronenberg’s grimly dark Hollywood satire, “Maps to the Stars,” and Jean-Luc Godard’s 3-D film, “Goodbye to Language.” Bennett Miller’s wrestling drama, “Foxcatcher,” and Mike Leigh’s J.M.W. Turner biopic, “Mr. Turner,” also will screen at the 52nd New York Film Festival. The slate was announced Wednesday by the Film Society of Lincoln Center. The annual festival runs Sept. 26 through Oct. 12. Also coming to the festival are: “Clouds of Sils Maria” star-

ring Juliette Binoche and Kristen Stewart, the Dardenne brothers’ “Two Days, One Night” and Sundance award-winner “Whiplash.”

Dove Awards announce nominees NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Hillsong United, Lecrae, Mandisa and Matt Maher lead the 45th annual Dove Awards nominations for artists with five apiece for gospel and Christian music excellence. The nominations were announced Wednesday at Lipscomb University in Nashville, Tennessee, where the awards show will be held Oct. 7. Producer and songwriter Wayne Haun leads all nominees with 12 nominations overall. The Gospel Music Association awards show covers the broad range of Christian music with categories ranging from Southern gospel, rap/hip-hop, rock, pop and inspirational.

Conde Nast spins off Lucky mag in BeachMint deal NEW YORK – Lucky magazine is no longer part of the Conde Nast media company.

Eva Chen, Lucky’s editor-in-chief, will serve as The Lucky Group’s chief creative officer, and BeachMint’s co-founder Josh Berman will be the new entity’s CEO, Conde Nast announced earlier this week. Lucky’s editorial and business teams are expected to join the new company. Anna Wintour, Conde Nast’s artistic director, will serve as an adviser to The Lucky Group. The Lucky Group will not move with Conde Nast when it opens its new offices at the World Trade Center complex later this year.

to turn your new house into a home

(BPT) - Moving brings great opportunities in the form of careers, social connections and new beginnings. However, the act of moving can create unnecessary stress and tension, which makes the process less than desirable.

Brigham Young said, “Silence may be golden, but can you think of a better way to entertain someone than to listen to him?” Can you think of a better way to ind the best opening lead than to listen to the bidding? Look at the West hand and the auction in today’s diagram. What should West lead against four spades? When the opponents are cruising toward a game or slam, pay attention. In particular, work out how many points each player has. And sometimes you will also know the distribution of at least one opponent’s hand -- as in this deal. North announced ive hearts, four clubs and three spades; his hand had 3-5-1-4 (or perhaps 3-5-0-5 or even 3-6-0-4) distribution. He also promised extra strength, usually 15 or 16 high-card points. With a minimum, he would have raised one spade to two spades. South showed game-invitational values with three-card heart support. Then, when

he preferred four spades to four hearts, he indicated ive spades. Given that dummy is very short in diamonds, leading that suit has little appeal. (Yes, it works if East wins the irst trick and shifts to a low club.) A trump is too passive. The opponents have bid quite strongly, so it is probably right to lead actively. That means choosing the club jack. East takes dummy’s queen with his ace and returns the suit. Then the defenders can take two clubs, one diamond and one heart for down one.

Arts festival helps reboot area theater By JAMI KUNZER jkunzer@shawmedia.com Discover area theater and help it thrive during a day’s worth of entertainment Sunday on the Woodstock Square. In its second year, Sunday in the Square on Stage will feature familyoriented activities and shows with musicians, bands, magicians, facepainting, a storyteller, games, theater performances, tie-dye crafts and more from noon to 8 p.m. TownSquare Players first hosted the event last year as a way to start its season and raise money for the nonprofit group, which has struggled the past few years. “We’re doing better than we were before, but we’d like to do more than we are, more for for the community,” said Betsy Stemple, president of TownSquare Players. “We’d like to be a little more extravagant on our shows, with set productions and costumes. I think we’re doing really well with the resources we have now, but I’d like to be better.” Along with servicing as a fundraiser – those who attend are asked to donate $10 a person, although no one will be turned away – the event brings togeth-

er McHenry County’s theater groups, including the Richmond-based Theater Undreground and Woodstock Musical Theatre Company. These groups and more need all the exposure they can get, Stemple said, and the festival provides a way to spread the word to the public. “You have so many treasurers of performers and groups in your county,” she said. “Here they are. We invite these people. We don’t chage for performances. We treat them like royalty.” TownSquare Players, which puts on two shows a year nestled in between musicals performed by the Woodstock Musical Theatre Company at the Woodstock Opera House, will perform skits from previous productions, such as “The Wedding Singer” and its Phoenix Workshop production of “Sitting at the Kids Table.” Theater Undreground will showcase imrov both from its adults and its new children’s improv program, Theater Uppreground. And the Woodstock Musical Theatre Company will offer a sneak peak at its upcoming production of “Little Shop of Horrors,” along with a look back at last spring’s “Annie.” Along with the theater groups performing songs, scenes and improv, musical acts include folk/pop solo-

She’s the queen of the barbecue scene in McHenry County. Roxy Radd, owner of the Texan BBQ in Algonquin, has been serving brisket, pulled pork, baby back ribs and more since 1984. The Texan BBQ was opened because Radd said her husband couldn’t find good barbecue after he came home from business trips to Texas. With a smokehouse at the restaurant, Radd said she has “three guys who oversee the cooking process.” Smoking most of their meats for about 12 hours, Radd said she uses hickory wood because “it gives it a real good flavor.” The three most popular dishes are the beef brisket, baby back ribs and the pulled or sliced pork. She believes so deeply in her best-selling dishes she gives out free samples. “You just have to try it,” Radd said.

AREA BBQ JOINTS TO TRY Story by CHRIS MORDI – editorial@shawmedia.com Photos by KYLE GRILLOT – kgrillot@shawmedia.com

Follow your nose. It always knows. Where there’s smoke, there’s goodness. And where there’s smoke, that usually means barbecue. McHenry County has had a long history with barbecued food, but recently it has seen a proliferation of new ’cue joints popping up. “Barbecue is just plain delicious,” said Roy Slicker, president of the National Barbecue Association and owner of Slick’s Que Co. in Bend, Oregon. “People appreciate the variety of chicken, pork and beef at a barbecue restaurant. They appreciate the

you see Carolina-style, it will be heavy on the vinegar. “The meat should stand on its own in terms of flavor, moistness and tenderness,” Slicker said. “I recommend that someone try the meat first and see if they want to ratchet up the heat or the intensity with sauce. Traditionally, sauces were meant to be more for dipping than as gravy. And when you load that fork up with ’cue and sauce,

range of sauces and seasonings. And they can be messy and not get in trouble. ... Barbecue is comfortable, not stuffy.” Even though ’cue is about as comfort food as food gets, Slicker said there are a few things people should know to better appreciate the food. At any great barbecue restaurant, pits (smoke houses) should already be going first thing in the morning so the meat can be cooked over a low temperature for several hours. Most barbecue sauces are tomato-based, but if

leave a little room for coleslaw if you like it. The cooling crunch is a fabulous combination. ... I call it ‘bite engineering.’ “Even if you don’t come from a traditional ‘barbecue state,’ don’t hesitate to try a new place,” Slicker said. “Barbecue pros are turning up everywhere. It’s exciting.” “The more the better,” said Crystal Lake Rib House Owner Dave Faccone of the new barbecue

restaurants recently opening in McHenry County. “With all the different styles and techniques, it’s better for all of us.” According to Max Good, vice president at amazingribs.com, an authoritative website about grilling and barbecuing, “If all you’ve ever had is ribs at a chain restaurant, you’re really missing out.” “Smaller restaurants get a magic quality from slow cooking and smoke.”

Peer pressure made him do it. Dave Faccone, owner of the Crystal Lake Rib House in Crystal Lake, was running a rib house with a strong reputation in Chicago. Then some friends in Crystal Lake started complaining that they wanted his ribs closer to home. In 1999 he opened the Crystal Lake Rib House, and he likes to think of himself as a member of the community as he’s become involved in not only the business side of things, but also other fundraising and community activities. “We’re the local place,” Faccone said. “We want people from the community to see things from the community on the walls.” The most popular dishes at the Crystal Lake Rib House are the ribs, the pulled pork and rib tips. “I love rib tips,” Faccone said. “I like the visual and the scent of them. You get all that rib meat with less work. They’re like the rib version of wings. A lot less work to eat.” All of his meats are smoked on the premises, using fruit woods and “a little hickory.”

BBQ King Smokehouse 125 E. Calhoun St., Woodstock 815-338-3477 www.bbqkingsmokehouse. com

Jason Szmurlo, owner of BBQ King Smokehouse, is a fast-talker who has a big passion for the food he serves at his restaurant, just off the Woodstock Square. Having run a catering business for eight years, he brought his simple barbecue philosphy to the Smokehouse: “Take a good cut of meat and smoke it with all-natural wood and charcoal.” “I don’t have any restaurant experience, or culinary experience,” Szmurlo said. “I looked up stuff in books. I put things together, and it tasted good.” Good enough, in fact, to earn him fifth place in the first barbecue competition he entered. He also took second place out of 16 teams when he competed in a past Chicago Rib Fest. With cook times at four to 16 hours, the meat at BBQ King Smokehouse is smoked low and slow every day. When it’s gone, it’s gone until the next day. The most popular traditional barbecue dishes are Szmurlo’s ribs and brisket. A must try is the Pretzel Bomb, which is a heap of pulled pork covered in macaroni and cheese and barbecue sauce and served on a pretzel bun. A King Mac comes with pulled pork covered in macaroni and cheese and topped with BBQ sauce and crispy fried onions. He smokes his pork and brisket for 12 to 14 hours over a hickory fire in a smoker he has in the restaurant. “We just need to get people in here one time and they’re like, ‘holy cow,’” Szmurlo said.

Tina and Dave Smith, owners of Smithwood Bar & BBQ – opened in March – are the new kids on the block. Their inspiration? Dave grew up eating barbecue in Kentucky. While their most popular dishes are traditional barbecue fare, such as pulled pork, brisket and ribs, the Smiths also offer “off-beat dishes.” Smithwood’s most unique meal is the Pig in a Spud, described as “a baked potato filled with cheese and topped with pulled pork.” One of the most popular specials is the Barbecue Bomb: a wrap filled with brisket or pulled

Hickory Pit in McHenry is the latest in a long line of McHenry County restaurants from the Archos family. “My cousin, who owns Bimbo’s [Ristorante in McHenry] saw a need for it,” said Peter Archos, general manager of Hickory Pit. “He enjoyed barbecue and wanted to bring a high quality barbecue spot to McHenry.” We try to be a cut above the rest and serve the best quality food at an affordable price, he said. The most popular dishes are the brisket, pulled pork and ribs. The brisket is a musttry because “we nailed it,” Archos said. “The rub’s good, the beef is moist and tender, and I went my own route when I made the recipe. I cooked it three, four, five different ways before we got it right.” Archos said Hickory Pit smokes most of their meats for 11 to 13 hours. “We use hickory and throw in a little cherry. It’s nice to do a little blend because it creates a different flavor,” he said.

Lauren Bacall had the look – cool and mysterious – and she had the sound, courtesy of that irresistibly low and throaty voice. “She was sexy, she was saucy, and she projected a sense of intelligence,” said film historian Leonard Maltin. Here are 10 key roles in the late Bacall’s long career, in film and onstage:

“TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT” (1944) – Bacall’s film debut, made when she was 19, and of course her first film with Humphrey Bogart. The two fell in love on set. And if that weren’t enough to immortalize the movie, there was this classic line: “You Photo provided know how to whistle, don’t you Steve? You just put your lips together and ... blow.” “THE BIG SLEEP” (1946) – By the time this film noir was made, Bacall and Bogart were married. Hawks also directed this one, an adaptation of Raymond Chandler’s 1939 whodunit. “KEY LARGO” (1948) – Also a film noir, and also starring Bogart – along with Edward G. Robinson, Lionel Barrymore and Claire Trevor. The movie, directed by John Huston, was the last of four Bacall did with her husband.

“HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE” (1953) – A lighthearted comedy that teamed Bacall with Marilyn Monroe and

Betty Grable; the actresses played models aiming to land rich husbands. Also a great one for quotes. “You don’t think he’s a little old?” Bacall’s character, Schatze Page, is asked. “Wealthy men are never old,” she replies. “DESIGNING WOMAN” (1957) – Another romantic comedy, this time with Bacall starring opposite Gregory Peck. Bacall played a fashion designer, Peck her sportswriter husband. The film did well, but Bacall was going through personal turmoil; Bogart died of cancer several months before the film’s release. “APPLAUSE” (1970) – Appearing on Broadway, Bacall won a best-actress Tony for her performance as Margo Channing in the musical, based on the 1950 Bette Davis film “All About Eve.”

That look, and that voice: Lauren Bacall’s best roles


Robin Williams’ most distinctive roles By JOCELYN NOVECK The Associated Press The kinetic bundle of energy that was Robin Williams took on many forms during a long and versatile career. He may have been best known for his fasttalking, funnyman roles, but he mesmerized in serious ones as well – creepy ones, too – and was memorable well beyond the big screen: on television, on the comedy stage, even on Broadway. Here are 10 of Williams’ most distinctive roles – and the list could be much longer:

“GOOD WILL HUNTING” (1997) – A rare but welcome serious role for Williams, who played the stubborn yet empathetic therapist who was somehow able to help math prodigy Will Hunting (Matt Damon) figure out how to handle his life. Won a supporting actor Oscar. “MRS. DOUBTFIRE” (1991) – Who couldn’t love a bumbling dad who dressed up as a portly nanny – with a latex mask, a wig and a Scottish

accent – in order to spend time with his young kids? (A sequel was in the works.) “ALADDIN” (1992) – Will it ever be possible to see a cartoon genie and not think of Williams? Remember him shooting out of that bottle: “Ten thousand years will give you SUCH a crick in the neck!”

“GOOD MORNING, VIETNAM” (1987) – Williams’ fasttalking style was perfect for the role of a DJ on Armed Forces Radio during the Vietnam War. (First Oscar nomination.)

“ONE HOUR PHOTO” (2002) – Another serious role, and it was a creepy one: Williams played a photo counter worker at a huge suburban store who got a little too involved in the lives of his customers when he realized one of them was having an affair.

“DEAD POETS SOCIETY” (1989) – Played an unconventional poetry teacher who taught his Vermont boarding school students to stand on their desks, think on their own, and “seize the day.” (Second Oscar nomina-

tion.)

LEFT: This 1998 photo shows Robin Williams holding his Oscar high backstage at the 70th Academy Awards at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles after he won Best Supporting Actor for “Good Will Hunting.” BELOW: Williams played disc-jockey Adrian Cronauer in “Good Morning Vietnam.”

“THE FISHER KING” (1991) – Williams played a half-mad homeless man, convinced that the Holy Grail was sitting in the Fifth Avenue abode of a billionaire. (Third Oscar nomination).

“MORK & MINDY” (19781982) – Mork from Ork. Nanu, nanu. What more need be said? This TV series, a spinoff of “Happy Days,” is how many of us first learned of Williams’ sublime nuttiness.

“MOSCOW ON THE HUDSON” (1984) – Williams played a Russian – and quite credibly, too – in this film about a comically lovable circus saxophonist, Vladimir, who defects while touring New York (turning himself in at Bloomingdale’s, naturally.)

AP photos

“BENGAL TIGER AT THE BAGHDAD ZOO” (2011) – Appearing on Broadway, Williams gave an admirably thoughtful performance in the role of a tiger – actually, the ghost of a dead tiger – locked up at the Baghdad Zoo at the time of the U.S. invasion in 2003.

Lake in the Hills’ Joe Farina stars in short cop film By JAMI KUNZER

A scene from “Strapped,” starring Joe Farina of Lake in the Hills, the son of late actor Dennis Farina.

jkunzer@shawmedia.com As much as he’s working to strike out on his own as an actor, Joe Farina will always want to be associated with his father. The son of the late Dennis Farina – one of Hollywood’s busiest actors known for both film and television roles, such as “Get Shorty,” “Saving Private Ryan,” “Crime Story” and “Law & Order” – lives in Lake in the Hills and recently starred in the independent film “Strapped.” The short film, released on YouTube and quickly garnering views and postive reviews, is described as a “drama suspense cop film” and stars Joe Farina as a crooked undercover Chicago detective “whose past and present collide at the same time.” The character is strapped with an explosive device around his neck inside a Hummer on a lonely alley. It’s a gritty role Dennis Farina – a Chicago police officer for 18 years before becoming an actor and often playing a lawman – might have taken on himself. Farina died in July last year from a blood clot in his lung, leaving behind three sons, Joe being the youngest. “I’m really happy with ‘Strapped,’ and I hope when people watch it, they say, ‘You know, that’s Farina’s kid. He’s doing great,’” said Joe, who lives in Lake in the Hills with his wife, Heather, and 16-month-old daughter, Olivia. “My goal is to make my own mark in the industry and for people to say, ‘He’s got something there. You’ve got to check this out. He’s pretty good, too.’” Joe was 7 years old when his father began pursuing acting. He didn’t catch the bug himself until about 10 years ago, although he said the time spent with his father on set likely made the career path inevitable. He remembered visiting his father in 1987 on the set of the NBC show “Crime Story,” which was filmed in Chicago during its first season. When Joe was about 13, his father invited him to spend the summer with him in Las Vegas, where the series later was filmed. “My dad called me and said, ‘I’m driving to Vegas if you want to come with me.’ I said, ‘Absolutely. Are you kidding me?’ “ Joe remembered.

“That experience, being on the set, watching him work, it’s a lot of hard work. That’s what I saw with him – always professional, very courteous. Absorbing all that, taking all that in internally, it was so impactful on my life. What an amazing time it was.” He said the importance and meaning of the experience didn’t really hit him until he was older. His father, never arrogant or showy, ingrained in him that being a good husband and a good father was the top priority, he said. If he were here today, he’d tell him, “Take care of your wife. Take care of your family.” “Acting-wise, I think he would be very proud,” Joe said. “He was always very proud of me no matter what I did, whether it was acting, whether it was something else.” Joe actually filmed “Strapped” in 2007 entirely in Chicago. Recently released, the film has had thousands of views, and its makers are hoping to get it into the film festival circuit. In it, Joe stars as “Bill” and deals with many of life’s deeper challenges involving sacrifices, facing wrongdoings and relationships.

“It gave me a pallet to act and build that character and make it my own,” he said. He continues to pursue other acting roles, always with his father’s professionalism in the back of his mind. He told himself on his father’s set years ago, “’If I ever have an opportunity to do that, that’s how I want to do it. But yet, I want to make my own mark in the industry, take what I learned from my dad and make it my own, make it unique.”

‘THE GIVER’: FAMED NOVEL COMES TO LIFE

OPENING FRIDAY

By ANN HORNADAY The Washington Post “The Giver,” an adaptation of Lois Lowry’s Newbery Medal-winning young adult novel, may seem like it’s riding on the coattails of such dystopian action hits as “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent.” But in reality, Lowry’s book may qualify as the ur-text of the form, a slim, futuristic allegory that, since it was published in 1993, has sold more than 10 million copies. In its own way, the movie version – handsomely directed by Phillip Noyce and featuring an appealing, sure-footed cast of emerging and veteran actors – aptly reflects “The Giver’s” pride of place as the one that started it all, or at least the latest wave. Ironically, it wasn’t until its imitators became box office bonanzas that “The Giver” was seen as potentially profitable enough to produce for the big screen. Far less noisy and graphically violent than those films, this mournful coming-of-age tale feels like their more subdued and introspective older sibling. Set in an indeterminate future long after a vaguely drawn catastrophe called The Ruin, “The Giver” chronicles the story of Jonas (Brenton Thwaites), a teenager who has grown up in the Communities, where the all-seeing, all-hearing Council of Elders controls everything from domestic arrangements and careers to climate and sexual “stirrings,” which are carefully regulated by way of daily morning injections. Jonas’ world, which he navigates with his best friends, Fiona (the stunning Israeli actress Odeya Rush) and Asher (Cameron Monaghan), is one in which all conflict, hatred and distinction has been erased by cultural values of conformity and obedience. This is a literally color-blind society, its black-and-white contours reflecting not only the Elders’ monotonously authoritarian sensibility, but Lowry’s own conveniently Manichean imagination, in which emotions and empiricism are at constant zero-sum odds. As “The Giver” begins, Jonas and his contemporaries are about to find out what jobs they’ve been assigned by the chief Elder, played by Meryl Streep in a long gray wig that recalls Holly Hunter’s bluntspoken separatist leader in the series “Top of the Lake.” It turns out that Jonas – who, unlike his friends and family, is able to see color – has been chosen to be a Receiver of Memory, meaning that he will soon learn all that happened before the world became the reassuringly predictable and consistent bubble in which he grew up. His guide in this endeavor is the title character of “The Giver,” a bearded sage living in an isolated mountaintop aerie

A scene from “The Giver.” Photo provided

“THE GIVER” STARRING: Brenton Thwaites, Jeff Bridges, Meryl Streep PLOT: In a seemingly perfect community, without war, pain, suffering, differences or choice, a young boy is chosen to learn from an elderly man about the true pain and pleasure of the “real world.” RATED: PG-13 RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 34 minutes for a mature thematic image and some sci-fi action/ violence played with shamanic gruffness by Jeff Bridges. As it happens, Bridges himself was the prime engine in getting “The Giver” made after a decades-long struggle, during which he intended that his father, Lloyd, play the part he ultimately took as his own. That commitment and seriousness of purpose suffuse a production that will surely please the millions of people who read “The Giver” in middle school, and for whom it became much more than a good book and more like a potent talisman of their own emerging notions of individuation, moral choice and transcendent self-sacrifice. Although Jonas is only 12 in the book, in the filmed version of “The Giver” he is 16 – and played by an Australian in his mid-20s, a digression from novelistic detail that already has sent Lowry’s partisans into howls of how-dare-they distress. But Thwaites, recently seen as a handsome prince in “Maleficent,” acquits himself well in a role that makes the most of his sober, Gary Cooper-esque good looks. Filmed in silvery tones of black and white, “The Giver” gradually gives way to a color scheme that is lurid or muted, depending on what experiences Jonas is accessing with the help of his grizzled mentor. Although those memories will eventually send him on a genuine physical adventure, replete with a shattering revelation and high-stakes drone chase, most of the film traces a young man’s dawning awareness that, the ease and peacefulness of his world notwithstanding, there’s something frighteningly toxic at its core. (One quibble with “The Giver” is that, at a sleek hour-and-a-half, some of its most dramatically ripe scenes play too quickly

and perfunctorily to convey the impact they’re having on Jonas; no sooner has he witnessed an unspeakable horror than it swiftly disappears, filed away in his burgeoning internal archive.) Like its fellow YA movies – which with the current juggernaut of comicbook adaptations represent the dominant culture in Hollywood – “The Giver” perceptively caters to its teenaged fans’ own cardinal desires and anxieties. Messy feelings, youthful curiosity and unruly physical impulses are valorized and elevated, in sharp contrast to the Elders’ Stalinistic attempts at social control. As a Receiver of Memory, and in one of the film’s most obvious nods to teenaged wish fulfillment, Jonas is given permission to ask questions, no matter how rude, and to lie – and he never has to apologize. Meanwhile, what he hears from parents and other authority figures is portrayed as the stuff of dehumanizing soul-murder. “Precision of language!” Jonas’ mother scolds him when he shares his feelings one night over dinner. Mom, by the way, is played by Katie Holmes in a suitably chilly performance as a rule-obsessed judge, intimations of the actress’s own recent brush with Scientology hovering over her scenes like a teasing, troubling mist. Jonas’ father, equally skillfully portrayed by Alexander Skarsgard, features prominently in “The Giver’s” most disturbing sequence, in which Jonas witnesses one of the grisly realities beneath the anodyne double-speak that he’s now beginning to question. That double-speak, of course, recalls George Orwell at his most anti-totalitarian, as well as Ray Bradbury’s “Fahrenheit 451,” which may be “The Giver’s” most direct ancestor. Like “The Fault in Our Stars” earlier this summer, young people have once again been given their generation’s version of a message that, although not necessarily new, nevertheless may feel urgent and uniquely timely to its core audience. “The Giver” has been made with deep respect for that experience, and for the book that so powerfully predicted the grim universe movie teenagers now inhabit – for worse and, in this case, for better as well.

‘Expendables 3’ is action-packed fun By ED SYMKUS More Content Now The nail-biting opening sequence in “The Expendables 3” is right up there with the best of the Bondian prologues. A train covered with armed guards, hurtling down the track, is delivering a dangerous prisoner. A helicopter, also carrying plenty of men with guns, is on its way to relieve the train of that prisoner. Let the bullets fly, let the stuntmen tumble. But you know that our heroes, the Expendables, or at least what’s left of them from the first two entries in this adrenaline-charged series, are going to get their man. He’s called Doc (Wesley Snipes), and he turns out to be one of the original Expendables, a member before that first story was ever told. He’s been in the hoosegow for eight years, and now the group’s gravel-voiced, tough-asnails leader, Barney Ross (Sly Stallone) has decided it’s time for him to rejoin the band. For those who keep body counts at these movies, bring lots of paper, with lots of room for hash marks. The count starts early. There’s a lull in the film’s middle section – for good reason – then it goes off the charts for the finale. “The Expendables” (2010) intro-

“EXPENDABLES 3” STARRING: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li PLOT: Barney augments his team with new blood for a personal battle: to take down Conrad Stonebanks, the Expendables co-founder and notorious arms trader who is hell-bent on wiping out Barney and every single one of his associates. RATED: PG-13 for violence including intense sustained gun battles and fight scenes, and for language TIME: 2 hours, 6 minutes duced audiences to this gaggle of longin-the-tooth mercenaries, and fueled the film with non-stop action and bloodless violence. It was a huge hit. “The Expendables 2” (2012) carried on with the same kind of intense violence but added a screwy sense of humor. It was a slightly huger hit. This sequel to the sequel continues the formula but tosses in a bit of heart, and some back stories that explain who some of these people are and why they do what they do. For those not familiar with the series, the Expendables are a bunch of guys who will do anything and everything the CIA (secretly, of course) needs

them to do. It’s a given that will include the use of big guns, big knives, huge explosions, and much mayhem, committed by rough-and-tumble men who are more than slightly over the hill but are talented and fearless and committed – or maybe should be committed. We learn in this outing that the group started out with five members, at one time reached a high count of 22, and has now been pared down to ... well, to tell the truth, in this one they keep coming and going, so it’s hard to keep track. This third entry also enters into new territory by spinning a tale of revenge. It seems that an early member of the group, Conrad Stonebanks, had a major falling out with Ross, went rogue, did some horrific things, and was, under orders, killed by Ross. Uh-oh, Ross doesn’t know it, but he didn’t exactly get the job done, and in the midst of an unrelated operation, Ross and the boys stumble upon Stonebanks, now a successful and villainous arms dealer, and Stonebanks stumbles right back upon them, and it’s “getting even” time. The other twist is that Ross is worried about his men getting too old to keep doing this, about mortality, about the fact that Stonebanks is one bad dude. He dismisses everyone, then goes about recruiting a new batch of

Expendables, some young blood to pick up the slack and go after Stonebanks with everything they’ve got, and age on their side. Everyone is up to the task in the acting department, from the regulars, who have got their characters down pat, to some newcomers, including Kelsey Grammer as Bonaparte, the fellow who helps Ross find the replacements, and all of those new folks, among whom the only familiar face to moviegoers will be Kellan Lutz (from the “Twilight” series). While many eyes will be on the only female member, the rugged and beautiful Luna (a relaxed and natural performance from MMA champ Ronda Rousey), accolades are going to flow for Mel Gibson’s presentation of Stonebanks. Personally speaking, I don’t like the guy or his actions and politics, but he nails this role, and gives the conflicted villain a believable dose of pathos, even as he commits dastardly deeds. It should be no surprise that the story leads to a big showdown of fisticuffs between the hero and the villain. But it’s kind of stunning that the climax is done so well. And it’s eyewinkingly apt that the whole thing ends with Neil Young’s “Old Man” on the soundtrack.
