State COVID Update

State nears ‘bridge’ phase with 64% of seniors receiving at least 1 vaccine dose Number must hit 70% for greater capacity limits to be allowed By Jerry Nowicki

Capitol News Illinois jnowicki@capitolnewsillinois.com

SPRINGFIELD – With 64 percent of the state’s seniors having received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, Illinois is nearing the “bridge” phase of reopening that will allow for greater capacity limits at businesses and social gatherings. That number must hit 70 percent to enter the bridge phase, which would trigger another 28-day monitoring period. If virus transmission and hospitalization metrics don’t worsen during the monitoring period, Phase 5 can begin, removing all capacity restrictions. The vaccination rate for seniors age 65 and older is up from 58 percent on Thursday, when Gov. JB Pritzker first announced the bridge phase. The governor spoke at a mass vaccination site in the Cook County village of Forest Park Monday, the 14th such facility to launch statewide. There are now over 900 vaccination sites statewide, Pritzker said. As of Monday, the state reported that more than 4.7 million doses of the vaccine had been administered statewide, while the seven-day rolling average stood at 92,148, the lowest it has been in two weeks. Just 116,500 doses were administered the two days prior combined. According to the Illinois Department

of Public Health website, 13.8 percent of the state’s population has been fully vaccinated. Pritzker said “about one in three” Illinoisans age 16 and older had received at least one vaccine dose, a number that must reach 50 percent for the state to enter Phase 5 of reopening, which is essentially back to normal in terms of capacity restrictions. All Illinoisans will be eligible for the vaccine as of April 12, although Chicago may delay that rollout. On Monday, vaccine eligibility was expanded to universit y professors, members of the media and government workers. Information on where to find vaccine appointments is available at coronavirus. illinois.gov. Per the bridge phase, the largest capacity increase is to social events, which can allow 250 people indoors and 500 outdoors. Previously, those were capped at 50 people. Recreation activities are allowed with groups up to 100 or 50 percent of capacity indoors, while outdoor recreation is limited to groups of 100, with multiple groups allowed at the same site. Ticketed recreation events are allowed to hold 60 percent of the facility’s capacity. Restaurants and bars can increase capacity from 25 percent to 30 percent, and outdoor capacity is allowed up to 50 percent for standing areas. In seating areas, parties of up to 10 are allowed and different parties must be seated six feet apart. For businesses, offices, retail stores

and fitness centers, capacit y w ill increase from 50 percent to 60 percent. Amusement parks and museums can increase from 25 percent to 60 percent. Theaters and zoos can have up to 60 percent capacity as well. The state can move back to a previous phase if hospitalizations for COVID-19 are trending upward and above 150 average new admissions per day, or if intensive care bed capacity slips below 20 percent. The metrics will be applied statewide, according to the governor’s office. As of Monday, the state’s positivity rate stood at 2.6 percent, about a half point above its lowest number reached nine days ago. On a weekly average, hospitalizations remained roughly level from one week ago, with 1,139 in use by COVID-19 patients statewide as of Sunday night. Of those, 233 were in intensive care unit beds and 98 were on ventilators. Nearly 33 percent of hospital beds and 31 percent of ICU beds were unoccupied. The state also reported another 22 deaths Monday, bringing the death toll to 21,103 since the pandemic began.

O�cials: Gun in supermarket shooting bought 6 days earlier BY PATTY NIEBERG, THOMAS PEIPERT AND COLLEEN SLEVIN ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Police on Tuesday identified a 21-year-old man as the suspect who opened fire inside a crowded Colorado supermarket, and court documents showed that he purchased an assault rifle less than a week before the attack that killed 10 people, including a police o�cer. Supermarket employees told investigators that Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa shot an elderly man multiple times Monday outside the Boulder grocery store before going inside, according to the documents. Another person was found shot in a vehicle next to a car registered to suspect’s brother. Authorities said Alissa was from the Denver suburb of Arvada and that he engaged in a shootout with police inside the store. The suspect was being treated at a hospital and was expected to be booked into the county jail later in the day on murder charges. Investigators have not established a motive, but authorities believe he was the only shooter, Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty said. In Washington, President Joe Biden called on Congress to tighten the nation’s gun laws. “Ten lives have been lost, and more families have been shattered by gun violence in the state of Colorado,” Biden said at the White House. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer vowed to bring forward two House-passed bills to require expanded background checks for gun buyers. Biden supports the measures, but they face a tougher route to passage in a closely divided Senate with a slim Democratic majority. The suspect purchased the assault weapon just six days before the shooting, on March 16, according to the arrest a�davit released Tuesday. It was not immediately known where the gun was purchased. The shooting came 10 days after a judge blocked a ban on assault rifles passed by the city of Boulder in 2018. That ordinance and another banning large-capacity magazines came after the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, that left 17 people dead. A lawsuit challenging the bans was filed quickly, backed by the National Rifle Association. The judge struck down the ordinance under a Colorado law that blocks cities from making their own rules

about guns. A law enforcement o�cial briefed on the shooting said the suspect’s family told investigators they believed Alissa was su�ering some type of mental illness, including delusions. Relatives described times when Alissa told them people were following or chasing him, which they said may have contributed to the violence, the o�cial said. The o�cial was not authorized to speak publicly and spoke to AP on condition of anonymity. The attack sent terrorized shoppers and employees scrambling for cover. It was the nation’s deadliest mass shooting since a 2019 assault on a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, where a gunman killed 22 people in a rampage that police said targeted Mexicans. SWAT o�cers carrying ballistic shields slowly approached the King Soopers store while others escorted frightened people away from the building, which had some of its windows shattered. Customers and employees fled through a back loading dock to safety. Others took refuge in nearby shops. Multiple 911 calls paint a picture of a chaotic, terrifying scene, according to the a�davit. One caller said the suspect opened fire out the window of his vehicle. Others called to say they were hiding inside the store as the gunman fired on customers. Witnesses described the shooter as having a black AR-15-style gun and wearing blue jeans and maybe body armor. By the time he was in custody, Alissa had been struck by a bullet that passed through his leg, the a�davit said. He had removed most of his clothing and was dressed only in shorts. Inside the store, he had left the gun, a tactical vest, a semiautomatic handgun and his bloodied clothing, the a�davit said. After the shooting, detectives went to Alissa’s home and found his sister-inlaw, who told them that he had been playing around with a weapon she thought looked like a “machine gun,” about two days earlier, the document said. A tapestry and a pillow blocked a narrow window next to the front door at the Arvada home believed to be owned by the suspect’s father. No one answered the door after several knocks, but young children occasionally pulled the pillow aside and peered out of the window. The two-story home with a three-car garage sits in a relatively new middle- and upper-class neighborhood. Alissa graduated in 2018 from Arvada West High School, where he was on the

wrestling team in his junior and senior years, and he enrolled at Metropolitan State University in Denver, according to a Facebook page since taken down. Boulder Police Chief Maris Herold identified the slain o�cer as Eric Talley, 51, who had been with the force since 2010. He was the first to arrive after responding to a call about shots fired and someone carrying a rifle, she said. Homer Talley, 74, described his son as a devoted father who “knew the Lord.” He had seven children, ages 7 to 20. “We know where he is,” his father told The Associated Press from his ranch in central Texas. “He loved his family more than anything. He wasn’t afraid of dying. He was afraid of putting them through it.” The other dead ranged in age from 20 to 65. They were identified as Denny Stong, 20; Neven Stanisic, 23; Rikki Olds, 25; Tralona Bartkowiak, 49; Suzanne Fountain, 59; Teri Leiker, 51; Kevin Mahoney, 61; Lynn Murray, 62; and Jodi Waters, 65. The attack in Boulder, about 25 miles (40 kilometers) northwest of Denver and home to the University of Colorado, stunned a state that has seen several mass shootings, including the 1999 Columbine High School massacre and the 2012 Aurora movie theater shooting. Monday’s attack was the seventh mass killing this year in the U.S., following the March 16 shooting that left eight people dead at three Atlanta-area massage businesses, according to a database compiled by The Associated Press, USA Today and Northeastern University. It follows a lull in mass killings during the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, which had the smallest number of such attacks in eight years, according to the database, which tracks mass killings defined as four or more dead, not including the shooter. Biden announced that flags nationwide would be lowered in memory of the victims — an order that comes just as a previous flag-lowering proclamation expired for those killed in the Atlantaarea shootings. Together the two orders mean near-continuous national mourning for almost two weeks. ___ Slevin reported from Denver.

Stock Market

Stocks close broadly lower on Wall Street as banks stumble By Damian J. Troise and Alex Veiga Associated Press

Stocks headed lower in afternoon trading Tuesday, placing the market on track to give back its gains from a day earlier. The S&P 500 was down 0.9% as of 3:34 p.m. Eastern time after shedding an early gain. Technology, industrial and health care companies accounted for much of the selling. Energy stocks also helped drag down the market as oil prices fell. Bond yields also declined. That weighed on banks and other financial companies which look to bond yields as a benchmark for the interest rates they charge on mortgages and other loans. The tech-heavy Nasdaq was down 1.1% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average, fell 335 points, or 1.1% to 32,384. The selling was heaviest among smaller

companies, which dragged the Russell 2000 index 3.8% lower. Investors continue to be focused on the future outlook for the U.S. economy as millions of Americans get vaccinated every day. Investors are wavering between optimism that coronavirus vaccines that might allow business and travel to return to normal and fears of higher inflation after struggling economies were flooded with credit and government spending. “The market feels like it is in this inflection point,” said Darrell Cronk, chief investment officer of Wells Fargo Wealth and Investment Management. “It’s a good day for reflection.” The price of U.S. crude oil dropped 6.2% to $57.76 a barrel, pulling energy companies lower. Energy prices have been steadily climbing this year until

recently, as the global economy recovers and oil demand worldwide increases while production remains constrained. Marathon Oil fell 6.6%. Another drop in long-term bond yields pulled bank stocks lower. When bond yields fall they mean lower interest rates on loans such as mortgages, and weaker profits for banks and other lenders. Bank of America fell 2.1% and Wells Fargo dropped 2.10%. American Express slid 3%. The yield of the 10-year Treasury note fell to 1.63%. The yield was well above 1.70% last week, which had put some pressure on the stock market. The S&P 500 hit a pandemic-era low exactly one year ago, on March 23, 2020, having dropped nearly 34% in about a month. That wiped out three years’ worth of gains. The index wound up roaring back in the coming months, and recovered all its losses by August. Through Monday, it had surged 76% from that low point. Cronk said many of the signs in the market point to an early-stage recovery. Interest rates are rising as the economy strengthens, commodities like oil are making steady gains and sectors tied closely to economic growth are doing well. “It’s playing out exactly as it should play out.”

AstraZeneca fell 3.5% after U.S. authorities said that the drug company’s COVID-19 vaccination trial data contained “incomplete” information, which may impact its efficacy. AstraZeneca’s vaccine is being primarily used in Europe. One company to watch later will be GameStop, which will report its quarterly results after the closing bell. GameStop has been a stock of great interest to a community of online investors, who pushed the stock to astronomical heights earlier in the year. The stock continues to be extremely volatile, often moving more than 10% on a given day. It was down 5.8% in afternoon trading. End of trading update: Stocks are closing broadly lower, giving up their gains from a day earlier. Banks took some of the bigger losses as bond yields fell Tuesday, and energy companies fell along with a steep drop in the price of crude oil. The S&P 500 lost 0.8%. Stocks of smaller companies, which have far outpaced the rest of the market this year, fell even more. The Russell 2000 index gave back 3.6%. The drop in bond yields hurt banks because it means lower interest rates on mortgages and other kinds of loans. The price of benchmark U.S. crude oil sank 6.2%.

Mr. Green Car

Our Grid By Allen Penticoff Columnist

In my previous (March 10, 2021) Mr. Green Car I wrote about the economics of electricity production as revealed in the book by Meredith Angwin, Shorting the Grid - The Hidden Fragility of our Electric Grid. Our “grids” are rather mysterious things. Very remarkable, on the verge of magical. Electricity generated by many sources in many widespread locations is mixed together to meet our needs in real time. There is essentially none that is stored up and used to meet sudden increased demands. If you plug your Tesla into a Supercharger to rapidly fill its battery, somewhere someone will need to make more power to do that. That source is most often a natural gas-powered turbine since they are the champions of making on-demand electricity. Wind and solar power are not much good for on-demand electricity (which is called “dispatchable power”) since you can’t make the wind blow on demand nor the sun shine. If these two sources have been trying to provide power, but had been shut down, “curtailed,” then they might kick in to provide power to the above Tesla. But on a cloudy windless day. Nope. Renewable power is often curtailed as it is making power when it is not needed. There are two peaks on the grids in the U.S. 9 a.m and 9 p.m. in conjunction with the busy power using times of our lives. 9 p.m. is the higher demand time of the two peaks. In between, during the day, there is a lull of lesser usage when the cost of a megawatt of electricity drops, then during the wee hours of the morning we see what is the base usage rate of electricity - all those refrigerators running and cellphones charging. The base load is easily met by nuclear power and other steam driven generators that do not change their output readily. Solar is fast asleep and wind is probably curtailed at these hours. In Northern Illinois, we are a part of a half-continent spanning grid (technically a Regional Transmission Operator- RTO elsewhere sometimes called an Independent System Operator - ISO) called “PJM” for the Pennsylvania, Jersey, Maryland RTO. So, our “grid” spans from the eastern shore of the Mississippi River to the east coast shore of New Jersey and the Hudson River. This grid connection sort of skips over most of Indiana to connect up in Ohio. Our average PJM base load seems to be about 99 gigawatts. Our neighbors to the north in Wisconsin are part of a different RTO grid, the Midcontinent ISO that stretches from the Canadian border to the shore of the Gulf of Mexico in Louisiana. Some

states and regions are not RTOs, but are vertically integrated, with one supplier controlling production and distribution of power. These are cheaper places for electricity as they tend to be better regulated by the states. I learned of this website from the book: w w w.electricitymap.org. This fascinating website shows in real time what electricity is being generated by what source in what percentage in places all around the world. Clearly graphically displayed is the amount of carbon that is being released into the atmosphere by generation or usage. The greener a grid, the greener the color of the map. Just start clicking all around and scrolling, you will find much interesting information. It is easy to see where solar drops off at sunset and gas use picks up the slack, particularly in California. Our own PJM grid is very susceptible to the comings and goings of wind. Always backed up by natural gas use as nuclear and hydro steadily do their thing of cranking out clean power. Our grid is one of the better detailed grids on the map. Our Wisconsin neighbor’s grid information is missing entirely as are most of the vertically integrated grids in the U.S. Nonetheless one can jump all over checking out different areas of the world. As an example. Green activists in Germany have caused nearly all their nuclear power plants to be shut down. While heavy with subsidized renewable power, they are, in fact, harming the planet badly because the shutdowns have led to replacement of the missing power with coal-fired powerplants, thus Germany is one of the dirtier places for power. Ironic - yes. And a perfect example of how it is not possible to have a fully renewable powered economy. Right next door is France, which has a very clean nuclear and renewable grid that exports much clean power to its neighbors. There was a 2015 paper titled - 100% Clean and Renewable Wind, Water, and Sunlight (WWS) All-sector Energy Roadmaps for the 50 United States by [professor] Mark Jacobson, Mark Delucchi, et al (the roadmap) that detailed a theoretical path to having a 100 percent renewable powered economy in 35 years. Many took this one paper at face value and tried to run with it without evaluation of its merits. It was promptly called out for gigantic errors and mistaken beliefs in what was possible. A lawsuit was filed by Jacobson then dropped. Through Shorting the Grid I learned of a website that has a (free 145 page PDF download) written by Mike Conley and Tim Maloney in 2017 as a counter argument to Jacobson’s theory at www.roadmaptonowhere.org. Here you will read that 100% renewable power is not feasible on many levels,

most of all due to the stratospheric cost. Secondly, there is still no known affordable way to store, on a grid scale, the needed power from when the sun isn’t shining and the wind isn’t blowing. Roadmaptonowhere uses a theory of 100 percent nuclear power as a counter to Jacobsen’s roadmap - but with a far different relatively affordable result that can be accomplished in a decade if desired with existing advanced nuclear technology. Reading the first 14 pages (chapter one) will detail the basic argu-

ments of both theories. It is easy reading in a casual style. With this, I ask that you become better informed about what our impact is on carbon dioxide being generated by electricity production. Look at our real need to reduce that output to as near zero as we can to be able to sustain our lifestyle as it is. I will no longer say that it is “saving the planet” as this big blue planet will continue its spinning path around the sun no matter what we do to it, but we humans may not be enjoying the ride.

Plan a Staycation in the Rockford Region By Liz Gronewold “I Need a Break” Needing a break from COVID talk, a break from work, or just a mental break doesn’t mean you have to book a trip to the Bahamas. There are so many ways to easily plan out a vacation for yourself without leaving the 815, or even your pajamas (it’s a personal choice, and I support it). Whether you choose to create a staycation that takes place completely in your home, or you make the city you’ve lived in for years your “destination,” we have some ideas to get your plans in motion.

fit it all in one trip. If your idea of a perfect vacation is roughing it out in nature, you can create your dream getaway in your own backyard or at a scenic site like Blackhawk Valley Campground. You can find all your camping essentials at Rockford’s own Rocktown Adventures on Madison Street. From camping to kayaking, you’ll be able to find everything you need for the perfect Rockford campout right at this local store. Just make sure to check the crazy Illinois weather before you plan, unless you’re really into roughing it! You can always take this vacation indoors if you have littles to take care of.

Camping Out

Relaxation

Rockford Area CVB

For my outdoorsy people, Rockford has so much for you to do you won’t be able to

So maybe the camping scene isn’t for you; don’t worry. You can plan your own

Nicholas Conservatory & Gardens relaxation time without leaving the house. Grab your robe and slippers and throw on some calm music. You can bring the spa home to you with products from Asha salon in the Cherryvale Mall. Don’t let your relaxation stop there, order dinner and have it delivered to you from one of Rockford’s best local restaurants. You won’t believe what a couple days of technology free rest will do for you.

Be a Tourist

If you’re a native, you may be so used to walking around the 815 you don’t take time to stop and smell the flowers. One way to make home feel more like a vacation is to treat your city (or area) like you’re visiting

Downtown Rockford mural

it for the first time. Take pictures by the beautiful murals in downtown Rockford. Take a stroll down State Street and window shop or stop in the local stores. Go on a walk and snap pictures of the things around you that catch your eye.

Final Tips

I really hope you can find a way to make home feel like more of a vacation, and if there’s a place that makes it easy, it’s Rockford. Let us know your favorite ways to staycation! For more information about these locations and more staycation ideas in the Rockford region, visit gorockford.com.

Growing potatoes BY GRANT MCCARTY CONTRIBUTOR

Potatoes are a crop that most people tend to not give a second thought to. You’ve chosen your potatoes, you’ve planted them, you hill them up, and you harvest them. It sounds pretty easy. Yet new cultivars of potatoes in the last couple of years have meant that red, blue, and purple potatoes are now available to grow. Some of these are also healthier than the traditional cultivars. In addition, baby and ﬁngerling potatoes can be found. The main reason to discuss potatoes now is that you may need to order them so that they’ll be delivered closer to your planting date. Unfortunately, seed

potatoes can be expensive to purchase due to shipping. Of the newer cultivars, potatoes with purple, blue, red ﬂesh and skin are getting color from the presence of anthocyanin. This is the same compound found in purple cabbage. Blue potatoes also have antioxidants in them. Most of these will be good for multi-purpose of mashing, boiling, etc. These cultivars include ‘Purple Majesty’, ‘Mountain Rose’, ‘Adirondack Red/Blue’, and ‘Magic Molly’. ‘Huckleberry Gold’ is a cultivar that is very low in the glycemic index. Some of these may be found locally at your garden center but you may need to order them. Last year, my family grew ‘Magic Molly’. They are a smaller, purple

potato. We roasted them and also used in potato salad which really gave some color to the dishes we made. Some other potatoes include ‘Irish Cobbler’, ‘Norland’, ‘Kathdin’, ‘Kennebac’, and ‘Yukon Gold’. Most potatoes are planted around mid-April. If you ask other Rockford potato growers when they plant, they will tell you that they plant on Good Friday. To plant a seed potato, you are aiming for a piece that is the size of an egg with two good eyes. This may mean that from 1 seed potato you may have 6-8 good eyes which could then be 3-4 potato “seeds” to plant. In most situations, you’ll space these 2-3 inches deep with 10-12 inches apart, and 2-3 feet between rows.

Fingerling potatoes will not need to be cut. Places these in a trench 4-5 inches deep that is 6-8 inches wide with 8-12 inches between. Cover them to start out with 2-3 inches of soil. Your spacing between rows is 2 feet apart. Potatoes can be grown in containers. Drainage will be crucial here and you’ll still want to do the same spacing on them. This may mean you can only plant one seed potato per container. Fingerling potatoes may do really well in a container compared to larger types of potatoes too. Grant is the Local Food and Smalls Farms Educator of the University of Illinois Extension.

ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Europe’s energy transformation: hydrogen, wind, solar BY DRS. ROBERT & SONIA VOGL CONTRIBUTORS

Euractiv.com recently sponsored a debate on the EU’s proposed new climate targets for 2030 and a transformation of the bloc’s energy system. It focused on renewable energy and e�orts to cut fossil fuel use in buildings, transport and industry. The debate precedes the upcoming review in June, 2021, of the EU’s renewables and energy e�ciency directives aimed at accelerating their transition to renewable energy. The debate involved representatives from the EU, Germany, Poland, environmental organizations, and utility interests. It offers another energy perspective from a heavily industrialized area of the world. Increased use of renewable energy is seen as cutting greenhouse gas emissions, diversifying energy supplies and reducing dependence on oil and gas. The transition is expected to stimulate jobs and contribute to economic growth. Wind and solar power are becoming the largest renewable energy sources in the EU block. Hydrogen is central to reaching zero emissions by mid-century. While some fossil fuels will be used to produce hydrogen, the intent is to tran-

sition to using renewable electricity to power electrolysers that split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Poland, historically dependent on coal, intends to increase its use of solar electricity, o�shore wind power, hydrogen and nuclear power. They will continue their aggressive program of household solar installations intending to eventually heat homes and power electric vehicles. By 2030 they expect to have 2 gigawatts of electrolysers in place to produce hydrogen. They seek to protect their forests from serving as resources for biofuels. Utility interests expressed the need to upgrade the grid to handle increased production from renewables. They would also like to see large scale renewable installations in addition to small scale and medium sized systems. Hydrogen is seen as too expensive for wide scale use at this time. Germany anticipates closing down its last operating nuclear plants in 2022 and its coal plants by 2038. To reach a 65% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 a clear vision is needed. They prefer that household installations are placed on roofs. The ability to transport energy to where it is needed from where it Is produced is essential. They are seeking

low carbon hydrogen and alternative fuels as a part of their transition. They see a need for standards and criteria to ensure hydrogen’s safe use. They also see the necessity of being able to import energy from diverse sources including importing hydrogen produced in Saudi Arabia. No mention was made of importing biofuels as being integral to meeting their carbon reduction goals. Another utility spokesperson considered energy e�ciency and direct electrification as the best ways to utilize electricity. The grid is seen as serving a coordinating role at the center of electrification so needs a major investment to fulfill its role. Chief barriers to upgrading the grid are the delays of 5 to 7 years in securing approvals from various jurisdictions involved in approving siting power lines. With half the existing power lines needing replacement by 2030 it is essential to secure quicker approval for their installations. The diversity of energy interests in members of the EU makes the development of energy policy a complex undertaking. Progress is being made in reaching agreements but some concern was expressed as to the ability of producing enough renewable energy by 2030 to

meet the growing demand for electricity and the projected growth in renewable energy demand. Of course ﬁnancing the transition is essential. The spokesperson for environmental interests indicated the scientific evidence is clear that climate change is real. If global emissions exceed 1.5°C, the consequences are foreseen as severe. Carbon emissions need to be cut 8% per year starting today, 65% by 2030 and 100% by 2040. Many of the ideas debated are similar to what is being discussed in U.S. regarding a transition to cleaner energy sources although there are di�erences. One is that the EU is interested in hydrogen storage and use while the US has been focused on battery storage. Another is that the EU appears to be moving ahead more quickly on implementing actions to cut their carbon emissions than has the US. In writing this article we have relied heavily on the presentations of the European spokespeople involved in the debate. For a fuller understanding view the debate on Euractiv.com. The relaxed tone is refreshing. The views expressed are in anticipation of the upcoming June meeting of the EU review of the existing directives on e�ciency and renewable energy.

tube talk

Musical icons By Paula Hendrickson Contributor

This season, NatGeo opted to air its scripted anthology miniseries, Genius – this time focusing on the life of Aretha Franklin, played by award-winning singer-actress Cynthia Erivo – over four consecutive nights instead of spreading it out over eight weeks. The final two hours air Wednesday, March 24, starting at 8 p.m. CT. Erivo is well on her way to EGOT status. In 2016, she won the Tony Award for Best Leading Actress is a Musical for her role as Celie in the musical adaptation of The Color Purple. A year later, Erivo won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Musical Performance in a Daytime Program for the same role, and the official cast

recording of The Color Purple won a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album. In 2020, she received two Oscar nominations – one for Best Actress, for her role as Harriet Tubman in Harriet, and the other for Best Original Song. Her chameleon-like performance as The Queen of Soul is almost certain to result in another Emmy nomination later this year. Erivo isn’t the only singer-actress garnering rave reviews for portraying a musical legend. In Hulu’s movie, The United States vs. Billie Holiday, Grammy-winner Andra Day – until now, perhaps best known for writing and singing the anthemic song “Rise Up” – plays the haunting jazz

vocalist, Billie Holiday. Day has already won a Golden Globe for the role, and is nominated for an Academy Award. While both productions track key points in the two legendary singers’ lives, they also expose viewers to their music. Franklin passed away in 2018, so most people today are familiar with at least some of her work. “Respect.” “Natural Woman.” Even “Freeway of Love.” Yet Holiday, who died in 1959, remains enigmatic to much of today’s audience. Known for lagging a fraction of a second behind the beat and for bending notes like a trumpet, her voice is iconic. But her songs aren’t as widely known today as they were a generation ago. The United States vs. Billie Holiday centers around her

song “Strange Fruit” – a blunt dissertation on lynching – but her catalogue spans many styles. Hopefully viewers will seek out more of her music after seeing this film. If you missed earlier episodes of Genius: Aretha, don’t despair. Cable and satellite subscribers should be able to view it free on demand for a while, but you can also stream it for free on NatGeo’s website – all you have to do is enter the name of your current TV Provider or sign up for instant access. On Thursday, the final two episodes will be added to Hulu, too, so you can binge all eight hours whenever you like. And if you have Hulu, check out The United States vs. Billie Holiday, too.
