Ethics Bill

Governor sends ethics bill back to lawmakers Amendatory veto asks for technical change By Peter Hancock

Capitol News Illinois phancock@capitolnewsillinois.com

SPRINGFIELD – An ethics bill that was hotly debated during the spring legislative session is headed back to the General Assembly with a request for a technical change, but not the technical change that many Republicans had hoped for. Gov. JB Pritzker on Friday issued an “amendatory veto” of Senate Bill 539, saying he supports the legislation but would like to see a minor change in language dealing with the office of executive inspector general. “I am pleased by progress made by my partners in the General Assembly in their efforts to pass meaningful ethics reform, and I support the steps taken in this bill,” Pritzker said in his veto message. An amendatory veto sends the bill back to the chamber where it originated – in this case, the Senate – to consider the governor’s recommended changes. Lawmakers then can consider whether to adopt the changes and send the bill back to the governor, who then has a choice of whether to sign or veto the final draft.

The bill came in the wake of a number of scandals over the previous two years involving current and former lawmakers as well as the lobbying activities of utility giant Commonwealth Edison. One of those involved was former Rep. Luis Arroyo, a Chicago Democrat who also had a lobbying firm that lobbied the city of Chicago on behalf of a company involved in the sweepstakes gaming industry. He and the owner of that company were charged with attempting to bribe a state senator to support legislation that would have benefitted the company. Among other things, the bill prohibits legislators and executive branch constitutional officers from engaging in “compensated lobbying” of a municipality, county or township. The same applies to elected and appointed executive or legislative officials of county, municipal or township governments. It also gives the legislative inspector general independent authority to launch investigations, but only after a formal complaint is filed. It also restricts those investigations to matters that arise out of government service or employment, not to outside employment. The bill also makes a number of changes to financial disclosure requirements

and limits the ability of lawmakers to leave office and immediately go to work as lobbyists. The bill passed the General Assembly on the final day of the spring session, June 1, by overwhelming majorities – 56-0 in the Senate; 113-5 in the House – even though many Republicans complained that they didn’t think the bill went far enough. Soon after it passed, Legislative Inspector General Carol Pope announced that she would resign, effective Dec. 15, calling the job a “paper tiger” and it showed that “true ethics reform is not a priority” for the General Assembly. Following that announcement, some legislative Republicans called on Pritzker to use his amendatory veto power to send the bill back for revisions. “There are very tiny aspects of this bill that are necessary, but it barely scratches the surface of what truly needs to be accomplished to clean up our state government and produce real ethics reform,” Rep. Avery Bourne, R-Morrisonville, said in a statement at the time. “The biggest fault of this bill is that it limits the legislative inspector general, who is supposed to be an independent watchdog over the legislature. At a time when we have seen countless elected officials indicted and ongoing federal investigations, we need stronger anti-corruption reforms to restore the public’s trust.” In his message, however, Pritzker did not mention the office of legislative inspector general, but rather its counterpart in the executive branch, the executive inspector general. Specifically, he pointed to a change made in the bill that says the executive inspector general may receive and investigate complaints of wrongful behavior “without advance approval of the executive ethics commission.” “However, advance approval of the Executive Ethics Commission has never been required,” Pritzker said in his veto message. “The addition of this language inadvertently confuses the clear authority that the EIGs have under current law.” Pritzker asked lawmakers to delete that language and return the statute to its original form.

Afghanistan

Victorious Taliban focus on governing after US withdrawal By Kathy Gannon, Tameem Akhgar and Joseph Krauss Associated Press

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — The Taliban reveled in their victory after the American withdrawal from Afghanistan, reiterating their pledge Tuesday to bring peace and security to the country after decades of war. Their anxious citizens, meanwhile, are waiting to see what the new order looks like. Having humbled the world’s most powerful military, the Taliban now face the challenge of governing a nation of 38 million people that relies heavily on international aid, and imposing some form of Islamic rule on a population that is far more educated and cosmopolitan than it was when the group last governed Afghanistan in the late 1990s. Thousands who had worked with the U.S. and its allies, as well as up to 200 Americans, remained in the country after the massive airlift ended with the last U.S. soldiers flying out of Kabul international airport just before midnight Monday. Hours later, turbaned Taliban leaders flanked by fighters from the group’s elite Badri unit toured the abandoned airport and posed for photos. “Afghanistan is finally free,” Hekmatullah Wasiq, a top Taliban official, told The Associated Press on the tarmac. “Everything is peaceful. Everything is safe.” He urged people to return to work and reiterated the Taliban’s offer of amnesty to all Afghans who had fought against the group over the last 20 years. “People have to be patient,” he said. “Slowly we will get everything back to normal. It will take time.” A long-running economic crisis has worsened since the Taliban’s rapid takeover of the country in mid-August, with people crowding banks to maximize their daily withdrawal limit of about $200. Civil servants haven’t been paid in months and the local currency is losing value. Most of Afghanistan’s foreign reserves are held abroad and currently frozen. “We keep coming to work but we are not getting paid,” said Abdul Maqsood, a traffic police officer on duty near the airport. He said he hasn’t received his salary in four months. A major drought threatens the food supply, and thousands who fled during the Taliban’s lightning advance remain in squalid camps. “Afghanistan is on the brink of a humanitarian catastrophe,” said Ramiz Alakbarov, the local U.N. humanitarian coordinator. He said $1.3 billion is needed for aid efforts, only 39% of which has been

received. The challenges the Taliban face in reviving the economy could give Western nations leverage as they push the group to fulfill a pledge to allow free travel, form an inclusive government and guarantee women’s rights. The Taliban say they want to have good relations with other countries, including the United States. There are few signs of the draconian restrictions the Taliban imposed last time they were in power. Schools have reopened to boys and girls, though Taliban officials have said they will study separately. Women are out on the streets wearing Islamic headscarves — as they always have — rather than the all-encompassing burqa the Taliban required in the past. “I am not afraid of the Taliban,” said Masooda, a fifth-grader, as she headed to school on Tuesday. When the Taliban last ruled the country, from 1996 to 2001, they banned television, music and even photography, but there’s no sign of that yet. TV stations are still operating normally and the Taliban fighters themselves can be seen taking selfies around Kabul. On Tuesday, the sound of dance music trickled out of an upscale wedding hall in Kabul, where a celebration was in full swing inside. Shadab Azimi, the 26-year-old manager, said at least seven wedding parties had been held since the Taliban takeover, with festivities moved to daytime because of security concerns. He said the Taliban have yet to announce any restrictions on music, but that wedding singers have canceled out of caution, forcing him to use tapes. Azimi said a Taliban patrol stops by a couple times a day, but only to ask if he needs help with security. Unlike the now-disbanded police of the toppled, Western-backed government, the Taliban don’t ask for bribes, he said. “Former officials, including police officers, were always asking us for money and forcing us to host their friends for lunches and dinners,” he said. “This is one of the positive points of the Taliban.” Abdul Waseeq, 25, runs a women’s clothing shop in downtown Kabul selling Western-style jeans and jackets. The Taliban have left him alone, but his clientele seems to have vanished and he’s concerned about the banking crisis. “Most of our customers who were buying these kinds of clothes are gone, evacuated from Kabul,” he said. For now, the Taliban appear to be less interested in imposing restrictions on daily life than on getting the country running

again, a task that could prove challenging to fighters who have spent most of their lives waging an insurgency in the countryside. They are expected to focus on the Kabul airport, where scenes of desperation and horror played out for weeks as tens of thousands fled in a massive U.S.-led airlift. Early Tuesday, the airport was littered with artifacts of the withdrawal. Inside the terminal were scattered piles of clothes, luggage and documents. Several CH-46 helicopters used by American forces were parked in a hangar. The U.S. military says it disabled 27 Humvees and 73 aircraft before leaving. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said a “technical team” would survey the airport and try to restore normal operations, potentially requesting help from Qatar or Turkey, which have been involved in negotiations on running the airport going forward. The Taliban have said they will allow people with legal documents to travel freely, but it remains to be seen whether any commercial airlines will be willing to

offer service. “I hope you will be very cautious in dealing with the nation,” Mujahid said in a speech at the airport, addressing the Taliban fighters gathered there. “Our nation has suffered war and invasion, and the people do not have more tolerance.” At the end of his remarks, the fighters shouted: “God is greatest!” Despite billions of dollars in Western aid over the past two decades, more than half of Afghans survive on less than a dollar a day. For the poorest, the change from one ruling system to another hardly matters in their daily struggle to survive. Sal Mohammad, 25, collects scrap metal and sells it to support his wife and 2-year-old daughter. On a good day, he makes about $5. “I don’t feel that anything has changed in my life since the Taliban took over Kabul,” he said. “I don’t care about any of them, neither the Taliban, nor the government, nor the U.S. I would like peace in my country, nothing more.”

Mormon vaccine push ratchets up, dividing faith’s members BY SOPHIA EPPOLITO ASSOCIATED PRESS

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — After more than a year of attending church virtually, Monique Allen has struggled to explain to her asthmatic daughter why people from their congregation of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints don’t wear masks. Allen said she’s taught her daughter that wearing a mask is Christlike, but now she worries her child feels like an outcast. Church leaders recently issued their strongest statement yet urging people to “limit the spread” by getting COVID-19 vaccines and wearing masks, but Allen said she fears it’s still not enough to convince the many families in her congregation who refuse to wear masks and have succumbed to anti-vaccine misinformation. Members of the faith widely known as the Mormon church remain deeply divided on vaccines and mask-wearing despite consistent guidance from church leaders as the highly contagious delta variant of the coronavirus spreads. About 65% of Latter-day Saints who responded to a recent survey said they were vaccine acceptors, meaning they’ve gotten at least one dose or plan to soon. Another 15% identiﬁed as hesitant, and 19% said they would not get the vaccine, according to the survey this summer from the Public Religion Research Institute, a polling organization based in Washington, and Interfaith Youth Core. The survey found 79% of white Catholics and 56% of white Evangelical Protestants identiﬁed as vaccine acceptors. Allen, a church member living in Wisconsin, is among a contingent who fear fellow members who refuse to get vaccinated are allowing their political views to supersede their loyalty to a faith that largely prioritizes unity and obedience. The message she’s shared with her 8-year-old daughter is that “of course Christ would wear a mask, of course he would get vaccinated because he’s a loving person,” she said. “And that’s the only way you can take care of people these days is doing these simple things.” Other church members are upset that their leaders aren’t letting them exercise their own decision-making about vaccines and masks. The Utah-based religion of 16 million members worldwide is one of many faiths grappling with how best to navigate the pandemic’s lingering e�ects. Divisions on masking and vaccinations in the Latter-day Saint faith appear to be tracking along political lines, with conservative members being more hesitant, said Patrick Mason, associate professor of religion at Utah State University. Mason

said the church’s divide is indicative of a larger pattern in the United States of political ideologies shaping people’s religious commitments. “The common perception of Mormons and Mormonism is that when church leaders speak, church members listen and do what they’re told,” said Mason. “This has revealed sometimes how conditional that loyalty can be.” The Latter-day Saint faith was one of the ﬁrst to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. In March 2020, church leaders suspended all church gatherings and closed temples. The church has also held three consecutive major conferences remotely since the pandemic began. The twice-yearly conference usually brings about 100,000 people to Salt Lake City over two days. Many faith leaders have spoken in support of vaccinations, including Church President Russell M. Nelson, a former cardiologist who got the vaccine in January and encouraged members to follow his example. C hu r c h- o w n e d Br i g h a m Yo u n g University in Utah has asked students to report their vaccination status but is not requiring vaccinations. Masks are required in classrooms and any indoor spaces where social distancing isn’t possible. The church is also requiring U.S. missionaries serving in foreign countries to be vaccinated. Regarding masks at services, top church o�cials have said it’s up to bishops to encourage people to follow local public health guidelines. In mid-August, they went so far as to release a statement calling on members to get the vaccine, which they described as “safe and e�ective.” Among other denominations in the U.S., faith leaders have varied widely in how they address the issues of vaccinations and mask wearing. To a large extent, there has been vocal support for getting vaccinated — including from top leadership of conservative bodies such as the Southern Baptist Convention and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. However, some Catholic prelates and evangelical pastors have been sharply critical of the the vaccine campaign and masking mandates, and others have shied away from addressing those issues for fear of angering some congregation members. An August AP-NORC poll found that among white evangelicals, 51% are at least somewhat conﬁdent in the vaccines to be e�ective against variants, compared with 73% of Catholics, 66% of white mainline Protestants such as Presbyterians and Lutherans, 65% of nonwhite Protestants

and 67% of the religiously una�liated. Some Latter-day Saints have accused those who promote anti-vaccine rhetoric of apostasy, a term that is associated with wickedness and describes when individuals turn away from church principles. Kristen Chevrier, co-founder of a Utahbased health freedom group that has advocated against vaccines, said the church should not be involved in health choices, and she worries people are being discriminated against based on their vaccine status. Chevrier, who is a member of the faith, said she rejects the idea that people who are anti-vaccine are apostates. She cited the church’s history of encouraging members to seek their own personal revelations with God. “How can we say that there’s a blanket statement that applies to everyone regardless of their personal revelation,” said Chevrier, who’s based in American Fork, about 30 miles (50 kilometers) south of Salt Lake City. Many members have voiced concerns on social media that pro-mask and pro-vaccine sentiments aren’t shared by all regional church leadership, with some describing their experiences as “bishop roulette.” Unmasked bishops at an Idaho church read the statement from top church o�cials to the congregation, but only a few chose to start wearing masks. One member, Marie Johnson, said she has been disappointed that so many in her community have heeded misinformation on social media rather than church leadership’s continued calls for vaccination. “You can ﬁnd something on the internet to support any position you want to take,” said Johnson. “Why would you choose the side that doesn’t include your faith leader?” But some churches began resuming masking practices even before the leaders’ statement. One Salt Lake City church has been encouraging vulnerable people to participate in meetings virtually and sent a message to congregants in early August recommending that everyone wear masks and get the vaccine. “Our faith leaders have been so consistent from the very beginning,” said Søren Simonsen, of Salt Lake City. “And to hear people say, ‘This is a hoax, it doesn’t matter, it’s not a�ecting us,’ when millions of people have died, it’s heartbreaking.” Eppolito is a corps member for the Associated Press/Report for America Statehouse News Initiative.

Hurricane Ida

Ida’s aftermath: No power, no flights, scant drinking water By Rebecca Santana and Jay Reeves Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Louisiana communities beginning the huge task of clearing debris and repairing the damage inflicted by Hurricane Ida are facing the dispiriting prospect of weeks without electricity in the oppressive, late-summer heat. Ida ravaged the region’s power grid, leaving all of New Orleans and hundreds of thousands of other Louisiana residents in the dark with no clear timeline on when the electricity would come back on. Some areas outside New Orleans also suffered major flooding and damage to homes and businesses. “I can’t tell you when the power is going to be restored. I can’t tell you when all the debris is going to be cleaned up and repairs made,” Gov. John Bel Edwards said Monday. “But what I can tell you is we are going to work hard every day to deliver as much assistance as we can.” The storm was blamed for at least four deaths in Louisiana and Mississippi, including two people killed Monday night when seven vehicles plunged into a 20-foot-deep (6-meter-deep) hole near Lucedale, Mississippi, where a highway had collapsed after torrential rains. In Slidell, crews searched for a 71-yearold man whose wife said he was attacked by an alligator in Ida’s floodwaters. She pulled him to the steps of the home and paddled away to get help, but when she returned, he was gone, authorities said. In Houma, the uncomfortable reality of

life without air conditioning, refrigeration or other more basic needs began to sink in. “There’s no running water. There’s no electricity. Our desperate need right now is tarps, gasoline for generators, food, water,” pastor Chad Ducote said Tuesday. The pastor said a church group from Mississippi arrived with some food and supplies but was gone in 10 minutes. Neighbors came to Ducote’s pool to scoop up buckets of water to bathe or to flush toilets. “The people down here are just doing what they can. They don’t have anything,” he said. On Monday, rescuers in boats, helicopters and high-water trucks brought more than 670 people in Louisiana trapped by floodwaters to safety. An additional 20 people were rescued in Mississippi. Crews planned to go door to door in hard-hit areas to make sure everyone got out safely. Also stuck in New Orleans were tourists who didn’t get out before the storm. The airport canceled all incoming and outgoing commercial flights for a third day, saying the lack of power and water meant no air conditioning or restrooms. Adding to the misery was the steamy weather. A heat advisory was issued for New Orleans and the rest of the region, with forecasters saying the combination of high temperatures and humidity could make it feel like 105 degrees Fahrenheit (41 degrees Celsius) on Tuesday and 106 on Wednesday. Power crews rushed into the region.

Louisiana’s governor said 25,000 utility workers were on the ground in the state to help restore electricity, with more on the way. Still, his office described damage to the power grid as “catastrophic,” and power officials said it could be weeks before electricity is restored in some spots. More than 1 million homes and businesses in Louisiana and Mississippi were left without power as Ida pushed through on Sunday with winds that reached 150 mph (240 kph). The wind speed tied it for the fifth-strongest hurricane ever to hit the mainland. A giant tower that carries key transmission lines over the Mississippi River to the New Orleans area twisted and collapsed in the storm, and power company Entergy said more than 2,000 miles of transmission lines were knocked out of service along with 216 substations. The storm also flattened utility poles, toppled trees onto power lines and caused transformers to explode. In New Orleans, city officials told residents without power there was no reason to stay or return, at least for a few days. Pamela Mitchell said she was thinking about leaving while she waited for the power to come back on, but her 14-year-old daughter, Michelle, was determined to stay and decided to clean out the refrigerator and put perishables in an ice chest. Mitchell had already spent a hot and frightening night at home while Ida’s winds shrieked, and she thought the family could tough it out.

“We went a week before, with Zeta,” she said, recalling an outage during the hurricane that hit the city last fall. Hank Fanberg said both of his neighbors offered him access to their generators. He also had a plan for cooking food: “I have a gas grill and charcoal grill.” Some places are also facing shortages of drinking water. About 441,000 people had no water service in 17 parishes, and an additional 319,000 people were under boil-water advisories, federal officials said. Hurricane Ida blew ashore on the 16th anniversary of Katrina, the 2005 storm that breached New Orleans’ levees, devastated the city and was blamed for 1,800 deaths. This time, New Orleans, protected by a major overhaul of its levees since Katrina, escaped the catastrophic flooding some had feared, even though the city got close to 14 inches (35 centimeters) of rain. Other parts of the state received almost 16 inches (40 cm), while Mississippi got over 13 (33 cm). In Mississippi’s southwestern corner, entire neighborhoods were surrounded by floodwaters, and many roads were impassable. Several tornadoes were reported, including a suspected twister in Saraland, Alabama, that ripped part of the roof off a motel and flipped an 18-wheeler, injuring the driver. Ida’s remnants continued to bring heavy rain and flooding to parts of the Tennessee and Ohio valleys. Flash flooding and mudslides were possible around Washington on Thursday and in New England on Friday.

Second Chances By Paula Hendrickson Contributor

When What We Do in the Shadows first premiered on FX a couple years ago, I decided to give it a try. A comedy series about a group of dysfunctional vampires sounded interesting. Sure, there were a few laughs, but for some reason it never really clicked with me, so I gave up watching part way through season one. Meanwhile, a slew of smart people whose opinions I usually agree with (when it comes to TV anyway) kept singing its praises. Their chorus just keeps growing louder and louder, which means I need to give this show a second chance.

Based on the 2014 movie of the same name that starred co-writers/do-directors Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords) and Taika Waititi (who won the Best Adapted Screenplay Academy Award for writing JoJo Rabbit) and was set in Wellington, New Zealand, the TV series centers on a household of centuries-old vampires – Nandor (Kayvan Novak), Laszlo (Matt Berry), Nadja (Natasia Demetriou) and Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch) – who are residing in modern day Staten Island along with their human servant, Guillermo (Harvey Guillén). Clement and Waititi write for the TV series and have each directed a few episodes as well.

Fun fact: Clement and Waititi created another mockumentary comedy series based on their original film, Wellington Paranormal, which airs Sunday nights on The CW. This New Zealand-set series continues the story of the film’s police officers O’Leary and Minogue (played by Karen O’Leary and Mike Minogue) as they investigate paranormal crimes in the city of Wellington. I liked Wellington Paranormal well enough – although at times I found it a bit reminiscent of MTV’s 2011 mockumentary horror series, Death Valley, but with only 12 episodes that felt a bit more like a comedic miniseries. Perhaps Wellington Paranormal has primed me to catch up on

What We Do in the Shadows. Who knows? Maybe I’ll like it more the second time around. Maybe I won’t. Either way, at least I’ll know what some of the hardcore fans of the show are talking about, and why What We Do in the Shadows racked up eight more Emmy nominations this year and made the cover of the current issue of emmy magazine.

Programming Notes:

Season 3 of What We Do in the Shadows premieres Thursday, September 2 on FX, and begins streaming on FX on Hulu the next day. Wellington Paranormal airs Sundays at 8 p.m. CT on The CW.

Ed Asner, TV’s blustery Lou Grant, dies at 91 By Marcela Isaza Associated Press

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ed Asner, the burly and prolific character actor who became a star in middle age as the gruff but lovable newsman Lou Grant, first in the hit comedy “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” and later in the drama “Lou Grant,” died Sunday. He was 91. Asner’s representative confirmed the actor’s death in an email to The Associated Press. Asner’s official Twitter account included a note from his children: “We are sorry to say that our beloved patriarch passed away this morning peacefully. Words cannot express the sadness we feel. With a kiss on your head- Goodnight dad. We love you.” Built like the football lineman he once was, the balding Asner was a journeyman actor in films and TV when he was hired in 1970 to play Lou Grant on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show.” For seven seasons he was the rumpled boss to Moore’s ebullient Mary Richards (He called her “Mary,” she called him “Mr. Grant”) at the fictional Minneapolis TV newsroom where both worked. Later, he would play the role for five years on “Lou Grant.” Asner’s character had caught on from the first episode of “Mary Tyler Moore,” when he told Mary in their initial meeting, “You’ve got spunk. ... I hate spunk!” The inspired cast included Ted Knight as Ted Baxter, the dimwitted news anchor; Gavin MacLeod as Murray Slaughter, the sarcastic news writer; and Betty White as the manipulative, sex-obsessed home show hostess Sue Ann Nivens. Valerie Harper and Cloris Leachman, playing Mary’s neighbors, both saw their characters spun off into their own shows. Asner is the third “Mary Tyler Moore”

alum to die in recent months. Leachman died in January and MacLeod died in May. The 99-year-old White is the lone surviving main cast member from “Mary Tyler Moore.” “Mary Tyler Moore” was still a hit when the star decided to pursue other interests, and so it was brought to an end in the seventh season with a hilarious finale in which all of the principals were fired except for the bumbling Baxter. Asner went immediately into “Lou Grant,” his character moving from Minneapolis to Los Angeles to become city editor of the Tribune, a crusading newspaper under the firm hand of Publisher Margaret Pynchon, memorably played by Nancy Marchand. Asner won three best supporting actor Emmys on “Mary Tyler Moore” and two best actor awards on “Lou Grant.” He also won Emmys for his roles in the miniseries “Rich Man, Poor Man” (1975-1976) and “Roots” (1976-1977). He had more than 300 acting credits and remained active throughout his 70s and 80s in a variety of film and TV roles. In 2003, he played Santa Claus in Will Ferrell’s hit film “Elf.” He was John Goodman’s father in the short-lived 2004 CBS comedy “Center of the Universe” and the voice of the elderly hero in the hit 2009 Pixar release, “Up.” More recently, he was in such TV series as “Forgive Me” and “Dead to Me.” Nonetheless, Asner told The Associated Press in 2009 that interesting roles were hard to come by. “I never get enough work,” he said. “It’s the history of my career. There just isn’t anything to turn down, let me put it that way.” “I’d say most people are probably in that same boat, old people, and it’s a shame,”

he said. As Screen Actors Guild president, the liberal Asner was caught up in a political controversy in 1982 when he spoke out against U.S. involvement with repressive governments in Latin America. “Lou Grant” was canceled during the furor that followed and he did not run for a third SAG term in 1985. “There have been few actors of Ed Asner’s prominence who risked their status to fight for social causes the way Ed did,” said actor Gabrielle Carteris, who is SAG-AFTRA’s president. She noted that his advocacy “did not stop with performers. He fought for victims of poverty, violence, war, and legal and social injustice, both in the United States and around the globe.” Asner discussed his politicization in a 2002 interview, noting he had begun his career during the McCarthy era and for years had been afraid to speak out for fear of being blacklisted. Then he saw a nun’s film depicting the cruelties inflicted by El Salvador’s government on that country’s citizens. “I stepped out to complain about our country’s constant arming and fortifying of the military in El Salvador, who were oppressing their people,” he said. Former SAG President Charlton Heston and others accused him of making un-American statements and of misusing his position as head of their actors union. “We even had bomb threats at the time. I had armed guards,” Asner recalled. The actor blamed the controversy for ending the five-year run of “Lou Grant,” although CBS insisted declining ratings were the reason the show was canceled. Although the show had its light moments, its scripts touched on a variety of darker social issues that most series

wouldn’t touch at the time, including alcoholism and homelessness. Asner remained politically active for the rest of his life and in 2017 published the book “The Grouchy Historian: An Old-Time Lefty Defends Our Constitution Against Right-Wing Hypocrites and Nutjobs.” Asner, born in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1929, almost became a newsman in real life. He studied journalism at the University of Chicago until a professor told him there was little money to be made in the profession. He quickly switched to drama, debuting as the martyred Thomas Becket in a campus production of T.S. Eliot’s “Murder in the Cathedral.” He eventually dropped out of school, going to work as a taxi driver and other jobs before being drafted in 1951. He served with the Army Signal Corps in France. Returning to Chicago after military service, he appeared at the Playwrights Theatre Club and Second City, the famed satire troupe that launched the careers of dozens of top comedians. Later, in New York, he joined the long-running “The Threepenny Opera” and appeared opposite Jack Lemmon in “Face of a Hero.” Arriving in Hollywood in 1961 for an episode of television’s “Naked City,” Asner decided to stay and appeared in numerous movies and TV shows, including the film “El Dorado,” opposite John Wayne; and the Elvis Presley vehicles “Kid Galahad” and “Change of Habit.” He was a regular in the 1960s political drama series “Slattery’s People.” He was married twice, to Nancy Lou Sykes and Cindy Gilmore, and had four children, Matthew, Liza, Kate and Charles.

Rockford Rocked Interviews

RRI looks at the past and present with a local guitar legend By Gary Hill Contributor

In the 1980s it was hard to miss the band Cheater. They were local heroes with a regional following. A large part of their stage presence was a figure with a Superman shirt and cape showing off mad guitar skills. That man was Clark Colborn, and he’s been busy since the days of Cheater. Recently I had the chance to ask him about the glory days of Cheater, what he’s up to presently, and everything in between. Gary Hill: For anyone familiar with the Rockford music scene in the classic era, you are no stranger. As Superman you were the larger-than-life guitar man for the popular Rockford band Cheater. What are some of your favorite memories of those days - either related directly to Cheater or just the scene in general? Clark Colborn: Wow, there are so many good memories that it’s hard to pick just a couple. Regarding the scene in general, there was a huge number of very good bands, and people were really into the live music scene. You could see bands that had songs on the radio practically every week. They might be in Rockford, or Beloit, and tickets were cheap. Often these touring bands would have one of the local bands open for them, which was always fun. With Cheater, we had a few of those opportunities, and got to hang out with some legendary artists, which was very cool. I like to remember our area fan base, what an awesome group of people. They always made us feel like rock stars; they would sing along to our original songs, and dance to pretty much everything we did. Perhaps my favorite memory is taking the stage at the Rockford Speedway. There was close to ten thousand people in the audience, and when we hit the opening phrase of our first song, they all came to their feet and absolutely roared. It still gives me chills to this day. Of course, there are tons of stories from those days. We had some really great times, and even had some bad ones that we can look back on and laugh about now. I laugh about that Superman shirt and cape I would wear, and wonder what we were thinking! GH: How do you see the Rockford music scene (ignoring the last year or so) now compared to those days? CC: For quite a while in recent years I think there were far fewer places to go for live music than back in the days of Cheater. Happily, that seems to be turning a corner, now. I have friends in local cover bands that seem to be playing a fair number of different area venues these days. One thing I don’t know that we have currently is a type

of venue we used to call a “concert club.” Basically, that’s just a really big bar, with a capacity of maybe 500 people; that has a big stage, dressing rooms, trusses for lighting, and good wiring. There were a couple back in the old days, and you could see national acts there all the time. They really filled a need because they were smaller than a typical theater but bigger than a regular bar that has bands. Another big difference now is that audiences seem to prefer cover bands or tribute bands over original artists. Back then people would show up for both. Maybe the last thing I see now that is not like the Cheater days is that the venues generally don’t have their own audience. Back then, it seemed like each venue had a fairly large core audience that would show up no matter who was on the bill. GH: What about the overall music scene, not just focused on this area? CC: Oh, we could spend hours on this question. Back then there was no social media; no Facebook, no Twitter, no Instagram, no TikTok. And yet word of mouth would get around about good bands. People would take a chance on a band they had never heard of, and about all a band had to worry about was making good music and putting on a good show. If they did this, then they could work and get paid for their performances, and build a following. If they got picked up by a label, promotion was handled by the label. Now, don’t get me wrong, there were a lot of raw deals happening in those days, but there were lots of good ones, too. Today, if a new band is not highly skilled in self marketing on social media, they are lucky to find any gigs at all, let alone paying ones. And forget about landing a record deal. If you haven’t accumulated a few thousand followers on social media a record company won’t even waste the few seconds it would take to tell you to get lost. If someone is lucky enough to get a deal, they cannot count on albums or singles selling enough to finance a tour in most cases. Streaming pays very, very poorly, so artists have to find other ways to earn income. You’ll notice a lot of tours have sponsors these days, and more and more artists are setting up Patreon sites as additional sources of income. Now, the flip side to this is if an artist is good at self marketing, they can get to a point where they don’t need the major label record company. I have found some really, really good bands on small independent labels, and some who have gone the route I did, and self-released recordings. I think today there may be even more awesome

music out there than ever; you just have to dig harder to find it. GH: You have a new solo album. How would you catch up your old fans from the Cheater days on what you’ve been doing and sell them on your new disc? CC: After Cheater dissolved, I had a couple other bands, but things didn’t click with them, so I started recording original material by myself, and eventually put out an album. That album was called Clark Plays Guitar. It was made up of 11 tracks, all instrumental. I had started writing a few of them while I was in Cheater, and originally meant to add vocals. Jim Lawrence, who had been the vocalist in Cheater and most of my other bands, had moved away by the time I started recording these tunes, and rather than try to sing myself, I just made them into instrumentals. So they have much of the same feel and energy as the material I wrote for Cheater. And that album did pretty well for me, so I just kept making more albums under my own name. The brand new one is called Obscurotica, and I’d like to think that this is what our sound would have evolved into, had Cheater remained together. This album has a depth and breadth and a variety of sounds that Cheater fans would appreciate, I’m sure. The opening track sounds like Black Sabbath meets King Crimson infused with a dash of Metallica, I’ve been told. I don’t know about that, but I took it as a compliment. There are some tunes that you can sing along to, and of course lots of guitar fireworks. Anyone who was a Cheater fan back in those days will remember songs like “Hometown Boys,” “Don’t Even Say Goodbye,” “Rock & Roll Demon” and “Mister In-a-Hurry.” This new album, Obscurotica, will feel familiar to those fans, and hopefully fresh and current at the same time. GH: I seem to remember some Cheater merch being released in recent years perhaps some music...memory isn’t what it used to be. Can you give us some information on that, and if anything is still out there for people to get? CC: Sure. Jim and I put out a limited-edition Cheater t-shirt a couple years back, with our well known five-aces-behind-aheart logo. It sold out pretty quickly, and we had said at that time we would not do that exact shirt again. I think we also included a download of a couple of our demo tracks. If there were enough interest, we might release a different version of the shirt. We are working on cleaning up some live recordings and our original demo recordings, with the idea that we might release them. It’s slow going, though. It is hard to

say when that might actually be released. GH: Where can people go for more information on your work, past and present? CC: The best place is my website, www. ClarkPlaysGuitar.com. That site is always evolving, so they will want to check back often. Of course, my solo work is the main focus there, and they can hear new tunes, get t-shirts, CDs, and a bunch of strange stuff at the store. There is all of the normal musician stuff as well: blog, videos, pictures, calendar, all that. Right now I’m working on a Cheater section, which will feature lots of photos, some video, and stories about those days. I hope to go live with it this fall. We also have a Facebook page for Cheater, called “theoriginalcheaterrockband” where Jim and I post sporadically. Last of all, there is The Secret Club, which people can join at my website. Members get all kinds of behind-the-scenes stories, free music, first shot at new recordings and merchandise, plus a bunch of other cool things.

Growing great garlic BY GRANT MCCARTY CONTRIBUTOR

With the Midwest Garlic Festival happening last weekend in Elizabeth, I was reminded that garlic planting time is just 4-6 weeks away. Garlic is one of the main vegetables (or you might call an herb) that we get questions about throughout the spring and summer. Yet the problem with garlic is that we forget that we need to plant it in the fall where it overwinters and is harvested the end of June. If you do not plant at the right time, you will ﬁnd that your garlic will not grow well for you. Garlic should be planted in Northern Illinois in October. Even if you plant in

September and mulch, you may have green growth from the garlic beyond the mulch layer and need to add more mulch. Any exposure of the green tips to winter may damage your garlic. One clove will yield one head of garlic. Basically, this garlic clove is cloning itself to create that garlic bulb. There is a direct correlation between the size of the clove and how the rest of the bulb will develop. If you plant a small clove, expect small cloves in the bulb you harvest in June. You want a hardneck type as these perform well in Northern Illinois. You might try softneck varieties but know that they still tend to perform poorly even with layers of mulch. Much of that will depend on our

winter. Avoid grocery store garlic. This is commonly a softneck variety. Hardneck varieties that are recommended are ‘Spanish Roja’, ‘Carpathian’, and ‘Georgian Crystal’. Growers I know also like ‘German Porcelain’, ‘Chrysalis Purple’, and ‘Red Chesnok’. To get garlic for planting, visit a farmers market in your area and talk to the vendor. If you purchase a head of garlic from them, these cloves can be planted in your garden this fall. Garlic can be ordered online from reputable businesses though shipping can be expensive. However, since you are cloning the garlic clove into a garlic bulb, you can save back bulbs from next summer’s harvest to plant in fall 2021.

As you think about where you want to plant it, keep in mind that garlic has a long growing season. This space will not be available for crops until June/July of next year. Garlic should be planted twice the height of the clove with spacing 6-8 inches between. You need to mulch. A good mulch layer of 6-8 inches is needed to provide insulation for the garlic as it develops. You may ﬁnd that you need to keep laying this down in winter months. Straw, leaves, and other mixtures are your best bet. It is not uncommon to have to reapply a mulch in December. Grant is the Local Food and Smalls Farms Educator of the University of Illinois Extension.

ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Preparing for change BY DRS. ROBERT & SONIA VOGL

ILLINOIS RENEWABLE ENERGY ASSOCIATION CONTRIBUTORS

Our economy and our lifestyles have been based on the consumption of fossil fuels. Many things we take for granted such as food, shelter, clean water, medical care and transportation are dependent on an abundance of low cost fossil fuels. We were warned that the end of low cost fossil fuels, especially conventional sources of oil supplies, had peaked, so we should initiate actions to cut energy consumption and start using alternative sources of energy. The problem of climate change was also denied and allowed to continue building in intensity, manifesting itself in heat waves, ﬂoods, droughts, ﬁres and intense storms regularly documented in today’s media sources. Less visible but extremely damaging is the accelerating loss of biodiversity and disruption of ecological processes. Until now many of these destructive tendencies were occurring incrementally, beyond the vision of the general public preoccupied with other interests and responsibilities. Even many scientists documenting deteriorating climatic conditions were surprised by the intensity, scope and earlier arrival than expected of the projected conditions. The alleged arrival of energy independence from fracking for oil and gas has withered resulting from failed economic

success of the e�orts. Beyond the substantial debt associated with fracking is the substantial amount of methane released to the atmosphere accelerating the rate of climate change. Capping abandoned wells, especially those releasing large amounts of methane, o�ers some hope of slowing global warming. While society overlooked peaking energy, they also tended not to realize that more energy was being used in securing energy leaving far less available to support the country’s infrastructure and its essential social services. An important strategy to curb carbon emissions involves installing solar energy to produce electricity. Globally, solar installations are increasing but not at a rate fast enough to o�set the increases in energy production from fossil fuels. The production, installation and maintenance of renewable energy sources also remain dependent on fossil fuels and minerals. While renewables remain an important component of a cleaner energy future uncertainties exist regarding their ability to support the existing economy. With uncertainties regarding global, national and state e�orts to cut both energy consumption and our reliance on fossil fuels, individuals, families, friends and neighbors can develop networks of support to provide a measure of energy security not being developed in a timely manner

by many units of government. Since modern agriculture is heavily dependent on fossil fuels to power its equipment, fertilize its crops, protect them with pesticides, less energy intensive methods of crop production, processing and distribution are essential to reducing carbon emissions. Supporting local sources of food that rely less on fossil fuels can cut fuel consumption and provide a measure of food security even without having a garden or being active in a community garden. Obtaining food from local sources and canning fruits, vegetables and meat can do both. Beyond local foods is the opportunity to increase local energy independence by upgrading the energy e�ciency of homes, buildings and their appliances. Using solar energy to generate electricity, storing some in batteries and switching to electric vehicles for mass and personal transportation also help to increase local energy security. In many situations electrically powered heat pumps can both heat and cool energy e�cient buildings cutting carbon emissions. At the industrial and community levels minigrids such as that at the Rockford sewage treatment plant can lessen dependence on outside sources of power and provide some energy security. Multiple sources of information exist on what individuals and communities can do to enhance local food and energy sources.

Much of the information regarding such ideas is available through the internet, local, state and national government agencies, utilities serving the local area, private service providers and nonproﬁt organizations. Many of the ideas and sources of information have been well known for years with far too few being implemented. Threatening changing climate conditions call for much wider implementation including using less energy, reducing wasteful consumption and rebuilding the local economy . We are living in stressful, confusing, uncertain times. Rather than wait for government solutions, identify some actions you can take now to cut energy consumption and increase your personal energy and food independence. But personal actions have their limits so maintaining and expanding a supportive social network is beneﬁcial. If material and psychological wellness are under stress, try mediation, exercise and social interactions which are historic ways of dealing with di�cult times. A local framework for connecting with the larger community is Sustain Rockford led by Brad Roos. They have organized two webinars on sustainability and are o�ering a workshop on the topic.
