By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – McHenry County College’s proposed expansion plan could have played a large part in what ultimately decided Tuesday’s winners, the candidates said.

Chris Jenner and Thomas Wilbeck, who were strongly opposed to MCC’s plan to grow its health and wellness programs, won sixyear terms on the board, as did Molly Walsh, although she tempered her criticism of the expansion plans.

“Certainly, I think the expansion height-

ened the awareness of the race,” said Walsh, adding that she was “humbled” by the community’s response to her campaign. She unofficially received the most votes with 13,239.

Jenner garnered 9,919 votes to Wilbeck’s 9,070, according to unofficial results, which do not include late absentee or provisional ballots.

The college currently is exploring the cost and scope for expanding its health and wellness programs, with added space for a fitness center. The college’s plan has drawn fire from the community and many, like Wilbeck and Jenner, argued that an expansion

FORMER PRINCIPAL ARRESTED A former private school principal in Johnsburg has been arrested after she sent “offensive” letters to parents of students at St. John the Baptist Catholic School, according to the Johnsburg Police Department.

is not needed. The men were gunning to stop the college from issuing alternate revenue bonds – debt that doesn’t require taxpayer approval.

“I don’t know if it’s what ultimately got us elected, but I think it contributed to it,” Jenner said. “When people heard what the proposal was and how it was going to be funded, it resonated with people.”

Wilbeck could not be reached for comment late Tuesday.

Time to clean up more than our rooms Now that we’ve finally turned the corner into spring, a lot of us are thinking about spring cleaning.

We look around after a long winter and decide we’ve had enough of dark colors and heavy coverings.

Who doesn’t want to start flinging open the windows and switching up the color scheme into something more perky?

Maybe a lot of that has to do with gazing outside and seeing the same old colors of dead – parched grass, brown leaves and gray bark. Not to mention the leftover dirt that seems to be covering everything from all that driven-over and plowed snow.

Yuck.

Mother Nature no doubt is ready to change into something a little more green, but we McHenry County residents have a little cleanup work to do outside, too.

And I’m not just talking about our yards. Although the Oliver home-

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Joan Oliver stead certainly needs a bit of attention in that department.

Have you noticed how littered our county’s roadways are? Have you driven along Route 31 between Crystal Lake and McHenry lately?

There is so much litter that you’d think a music festival had blown through without any of us noticing.

Plastic bags, fast-food containers and the like are everywhere.

Some of the junk blew in from elsewhere, no doubt from overturned bins on trash day.

However, a great deal probably came from senseless littering. Our county deserves better.

It’s not just Route 31. Why, there was even a rolled-up area rug along

Alden Road on the way to Harvard over the weekend.

It does look as if the folks in Harvard already are addressing the mess since there was a pile of newly filled trash bags at the corner of McGuire and Route 14 on Saturday night. Nice work, if that’s the case.

While we’re at it, there’s also a bit of repair work to be done throughout the county.

Reporter Joe Bustos tackled the problem of the area’s potholes for a story that published Monday.

We’re not just imagining that the potholes seem to be plentiful this spring.

The up-and-down temperatures in March didn’t help, public works officials told Bustos. More water seeped into cracks in the roadways, froze and then thawed as the temperatures climbed.

A lot of towns are putting out extra crews to deal with the craters.

In Crystal Lake, the city encourages residents to report potholes that need to be filled.

Even Bull Valley, which is notoriously bad for potholes, is doing something.

The village is having a study of its roads completed, with the goal of knowing what to fix first and how to pay for it.

The village also has a road resurfacing project planned along Bull Valley and Country Club roads. Of course, completion is still a couple of years away.

With all this talk of cleaning and repair work, I’m more than ready to spring into action.

Maybe the tulips will follow my lead.

CRYSTAL LAKE

JOHNSBURG

ALGONQUIN

Incumbents keep seats

Village president incumbent wins

Incumbents re-elected

CRYSTAL LAKE – Three incumbents will return to their seats on the City Council.

Longtime council members Ralph Dawson and Jeff Thorsen, along with relative newcomer Cameron Hubbard, ousted two challengers, James Tomasello and Charles Ebann.

Hubbard was appointed in November to fill a vacant council seat.

According to unofficial vote totals, Thorsen received the most votes at 1,841, followed by Dawson’s 1,808 votes and Hubbard’s 1,798.

Tomasello, with 1,394 votes, was edged out by the incumbents.

Ebann garnered 987 votes.

Ebann and Tomasello hoped to be a new voice in local politics, while the others relied on their years of experience.

Both Thorsen and Dawson have said they want to continue the momentum of filling the city’s vacant space in their next terms.

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – Maggie Haney isn’t done challenging the status quo in Johnsburg, but she is done in her recent bid for village president.

Incumbent Village President Ed Hettermann defeated Haney on Tuesday evening, 895 to 427 votes, according to preliminary numbers, which do not include provisional and late absentee ballots.

“I don’t think [the bid] was unsuccessful,” Haney said.

“The village of Johnsburg knows. ... I fought for the people of Johnsburg. I believe in the trustees, but I’m sorry for

the people of Johnsburg who have to deal with a corrupt government.”

Hettermann did not return a call for comment Tuesday evening.

Haney has worked to make the village clerk an elected position and raised concerns about missing checks, late fees and checks being issued without board approval.

At a March Village Board meeting, Haney said village administration was either guilty of “being inept or a cover-up.”

The next day the village issued a news release, authorized by Hettermann, that said the allegations were in

retaliation for an ongoing lawsuit between Haney and her husband, Frank, and the village of Johnsburg over a piece of disputed property.

A McHenry County judge dismissed the lawsuit in the fall, but the village appealed, seeking financial sanctions against the Haneys.

Trustee Ron Zanko, who has sided with Haney in her disputes with the village, also was ousted Tuesday. He criticized Hettermann over the release, calling it “malicious” and a “misuse of village media.”

Hettermann said the release was issued in the interests of transparency since

Haney had made “serious allegations” against the village.

His fellow incumbents, Kevin McEvoy and John Huemann, were successful in their re-election bids. Greg Klemstein, who serves on the village’s Development and Government Affairs Committee, was the third candidate to win a seat on the Village Board.

Zanko received 556 votes in comparison with Klemstein’s 765, McEvoy’s 942 and Huemann’s 978.

The three other trustees were not up this year. The terms of Trustees Rich Janusz, Mary Lou Hutchinson and Janice Sisk expire in 2015.

ALGONQUIN – The Village Board is set to remain the same after Tuesday’s election, according to unofficial results from McHenry and Kane counties.

Trustees Brian Dianis, with 745 votes, Robert Smith, 791 votes, and Jerry Glogowski, 792 votes, were re-elected. Challenger Richard Flynn had 548 votes.

Smith said during the campaign that he wants to work with the police department to reduce fines for right-turn-on-red violations, among other things.

Glogowski said his top priorities were working with the staff to make sure there was a smooth transition between retiring Village Manager Bill Ganek and new Village Manager Tim Schloneger.

Dianis said he wants to promote economic development.

Flynn, who lives in the Indian Grove subdivision, got into the election after working with the village on a road reconstruction plan for the subdivision.

HARVARD

FOX LAKE

Nolan wins in tight race

Incumbents all defeated

HARVARD – A tight mayoral battle in Harvard eventually went the way of incumbent Jay Nolan on Tuesday night.

Nolan took 53 percent of the vote against William Parker, according to unofficial results.

“I look forward to serving Harvard, and I’ll do it the best I can for the citizens,” Nolan said.

Nolan, who spent two years on the City Council before his election as mayor in 2005, referenced his fiscal responsibility in keeping a balanced budget during the lead-up to the election.

Parker, 36, is a political newcomer and Navy veteran who opposed the city’s decisions to raise taxes and water and sewage rates.

He also wrote a letter to the editor criticizing Nolan for his dishonesty in explaining the circumstances that led to the hiring of former Alderman Darrell Perkins to the Public Works Department.

FOX LAKE – All five incumbents on the ballot in Fox Lake were defeated Tuesday evening as voters swept in the party headed by village president challenger Donny Schmit.

Schmit, who is currently a trustee, defeated incumbent Village President Ed Bender in a 1,099 to 611 vote, according to preliminary numbers, which do not include provisional and late absentee ballots. Bender – and the four other incumbents up this year – made up the Focused on Fox Lake Party. Bender served as village president for one term and spent two terms before that as a village trustee.

Denike Warden won the village clerk seat, 1,032 to 639, beating incumbent Kimberly Mate, who was appointed to the position in March 2012. Newcomers Jeffrey Jensen, Bernice Konwent and Ronald Stochl defeated incumbent Trustees Kevin Burt, Valerie Griseta and Jon Mumford, as well as independent candidate Bob Hoffman.

HEBRON

Jacobson wins despite arrest HEBRON – Hebron’s next village president is a man police say had crack cocaine in his car three months ago. With 61 percent of the vote, John Jacobson defeated incumbent Frank Beatty on Tuesday night, according to unofficial results. He garnered 145 votes compared with Beatty’s 92.

“I’m innocent. I’m going to fight for my innocence,” Jacobson said Tuesday night after learning the results of the election. “The people in Hebron apparently believe in me, and if they didn’t, they wouldn’t have voted for me.”

Jacobson was arrested Jan. 15 after police allegedly found about 3 grams of crack cocaine in his vehicle during a traffic stop. He was charged with unlawful delivery of a controlled substance, a Class 1 felony, and unlawful possession of a controlled substance, a Class 4 felony.

Jacobson, 65, lost his job in the building maintenance department at McHenry County College after the arrest. Jacobson’s next court date is May 22.

McHenry Mayor Sue Low celebrates at The Gambler in McHenry after voters re-elected her Tuesday. With all 23 precincts reporting but provisional and late absentee ballots still to be counted, Low received 1,980 votes to Steve Cuda’s 1,546, a 56 percent to 44 percent margin.

LOW RETAINS HER SEAT Incumbent took 56 percent of the votes against former Mayor Cuda

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com McHENRY – In McHenry’s first contested mayoral election in more than 15 years, incumbent Sue Low defeated former Mayor Steve Cuda.

Low took 56 percent of the vote in a successful bid for her third re-election, according to unofficial results.

“I love my town, and I’m happy to have an opportunity to serve for another four years,” Low said Tuesday night shortly after declaring victory.

Low, a former special education teacher, took over for now-state Sen. Pa-

mela Althoff in 2003. Cuda, a Woodstock-based attorney, served as McHenry’s mayor from 1993-2001.

“I did everything I set out to do; I didn’t get the result I wanted,” Cuda said. “There were issues that were presented to the public that I wanted to get out there. In that regard, I gave the voters a choice.”

The race was one of the most closely watched in the area.

A debate March 21 drew the largest audience of any debate hosted by the McHenry County chapter of the League of Women Voters, according to several volunteers at the event.

Supporters from both sides filled the Northwest Herald with letters to the editor in the weeks leading up to the election.

Low campaigned behind a focus on economic development and revitalization of the city’s downtown area, and said she wanted to work to raise the quality of life in McHenry.

Cuda said he’d put a focus on business retention, and criticized the city’s inability to keep Walmart in town under Low. He said he would talk with business owners along north Route 31 and west Route 120 to establish lasting relationships.

“It was stressful,” Low

said of the race. “Everybody does what they believe is right to win, and for myself personally, I’m very proud of the campaign my committee ran.”

Cuda wished Low the best and said he respected the opinion of the voters.

“The voters are never wrong,” he said. “They’re always right.”

Fellow incumbent Jeffrey Schaefer joins Low in retaining his spot. The 3rd Ward alderman defeated opponent Laura Stanton, garnering 62 percent of the vote, according to unofficial results.

Schaefer was first elected in April 2005.

REFERENDUM ROUNDUP

Tax, aggregation referendums fail countywide

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com McHenry County voters were not in the mood Tuesday to give government more money or more authority.

Countywide voters resoundingly rejected a proposal to create a new taxing body to help the developmentally disabled. McHenry High School District 156 voters told the school board that it couldn’t spend the savings from a bond issuance on new technology.

Voters in Marengo and incorporated Wonder Lake rejected referendums to allow their respective governments to shop for cheaper electricity on their behalf.

The following is a roundup of the referendums that county voters defeated Tuesday. Vote totals do not include provisional and late absentee ballots.

• 377 BOARD FAILS – A referendum to create a new proper-

ty tax to fund disability agencies failed by almost a 2-to-1 margin, according to unofficial totals.

The referendum asked voters to create a board, otherwise known as a “377 board,” that would disburse a special property tax to agencies that help the developmentally disabled. Voters were asked for a property-tax increase of 10 cents per $100 in assessed valuation, or about $60 a year for the owner of a $200,000 home who takes the homestead exemption.

Supporters, such as Options and Advocacy for McHenry County, highlighted the fact that only 18 percent of the county’s 5,200 people with developmental disabilities are receiving services. Agencies statewide cannot keep up with local need in great part because of state government’s $10 billion backlog of unpaid bills to vendors providing such services.

Options Executive Director Cindy Sullivan said she was sad that the referendum lost, and said that people with developmental disabilities really need the help.

“I guess we have to sit and figure out what we can do to attract more money to get these people at least some of the services they need so desperately,” Sullivan said.

The referendum received 11,075 “yes” votes and 20,562 “no” votes, according to unofficial totals released late Tuesday.

• HIGH SCHOOL BONDS – McHenry High School District 156 voters defeated a referendum to spend bond savings on new technology and school security.

The referendum asked voters whether the district could spend the $2.2 million it saved through refinancing $29 million in bonds. Most of that would have gone toward updating the school’s technol-

ogy, with a smaller portion going toward installing security measures such as cameras.

The amount that property owners pay to the district will decrease slightly, or about $14 for the owner of a $200,000 home who takes the homestead exemption.

This is the fourth failed District 156 referendum since 2010.

The referendum received 2,338 “yes” votes and 4,273 “no” votes, according to unofficial vote totals.

• AGGREGATION – Voters in Marengo and incorporated Wonder Lake rejected electrical aggregation.

It failed in Wonder Lake, 94265, and failed in Marengo by only seven votes, with 457 voting “yes” and 464 voting “no.”

Aggregation allows governments to pool residential and small-business customers in the hope of negotiating for lower electric rates from providers.

FOX RIVER GROVE

New trustees on FRG board FOX RIVER GROVE – There will be two new trustees in May on the Village Board, according to unofficial vote totals from Lake and McHenry counties.

Current Trustee Suzanne Blohm finished second and will keep her seat, as she garnered 401 votes.

Tom Anderson was the lead vote-getter with 545 votes.

Andrew Migdal had the third-highest total with 360 votes in the race for three trustee seats.

The other incumbent in the race, Michael Ireland, finished fifth with 278 votes.

Chester Olencheck with 283 votes and Robert Kandler with 189 votes rounded out the field.

Blohm currently serves as the chairwoman of the district’s Finance Committee. Blohm said during the campaign that the village needs to focus efforts on maintaining businesses and attracting new ones.

Migdal’s priorities included improving the parking in the downtown business district, helping attract retail business into town, and improving parks.

TOWNSHIP ROUNDUP

Some wins for reform in Grafton

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com A reform slate in embattled Grafton Township ended Tuesday with mixed results.

Independent candidates running on the Restore Grafton Township platform won township supervisor and two of four trustee seats, but Republican candidates held onto the others. Supervisor candidate James Kearns narrowly defeated Republican Pam Fender by 67 votes, winning 1,944 votes to Fender’s 1,877, according to unofficial totals.

Two of the Restore slate’s three trustee candidates – Daniel Ziller Jr. and Joseph Holtorf – won election. The victorious GOP candidates were Robert Wagner and incumbent Betty Zirk. GOP assessor candidate Alan Zielinski bested Restore challenger Terra Jensen by 224 votes, and Republican Tom Poznanski beat Restore candidate Timothy Hoeft for highway commissioner by 313 votes.

The Democratic Party of McHenry County picked up a seat in McHenry Township, where Mary Mahady upset Republican township Assessor Carol Perschke, 3,634 to 3,153. But Democratic trustee challenger Scott Wieck lost to Republican candidates.

Green Party candidate Frank Wedig made Dorr Township’s trustee race contested, but he came in a distant fifth to the Republican slate.

Incumbent Republican Supervisor Robert Pierce handily defeated Democrat Phillip Robertson.

• In Alden Township, clerk candidate Kathy Nolan upset incumbent Gail Modetz.

• In Chemung Township, incumbent Highway Commissioner Donald Staver defeated Paul Hereley.

John Killeen III upset incumbent Edward MacDonald to win.

• In Greenwood Township, incumbent Highway Commissioner Donald Goad beat Eugene Rosio.

• In Nunda Township, Republican Kelvin “Lee” Jennings defeated Leda Drain for the office of township supervisor.

• In Richmond Township, acting Supervisor Pat Doyle defeated Adrienne Metz. Incumbent Assessor Patricia O’Neill defeated Michael Crouse for re-election.

MARENGO – The Marengo City Council has been transformed after voters booted two incumbent aldermen from office Tuesday with another incumbent facing an uncertain future.

Aldermen Steven DiMaria, Ward 1, and Michael Secor, Ward 4, lost re-election bids to challengers both new and familiar to Marengo city politics, according to unofficial results from the McHenry County Clerk.

In Ward 2, incumbent Corey Brackmann trailed challenger Matt Keenum, a former alderman, by a mere five votes, with absentee and provisional ballots still left to be tallied today.

DiMaria lost to newcomer Steve Mortensen, who garnered 80 percent of the vote.

Secor, the council’s longestserving alderman, lost to challenger Dennis Hammortree, who secured 58.9 percent of the vote.

LAKE IN THE HILLS – Village Trustee Paul Mulcahy will become the new village leader in May. According to unofficial vote totals Tuesday, Mulcahy had 862 votes and Bill Dustin had 398 votes.

Mulcahy will replace Village President Ed Plaza, who decided not to run for a fourth term as village president.

Mulcahy, a retired postal worker, served as trustee from 1997 to 2001, when he lost re-election. He then served for five years as chairman of the Planning and Zoning Commission before being re-elected to the Village Board in 2007.

Mulcahy’s term as a trustee is set to expire in 2015, leaving him to appoint someone to the board.

Also, in Tuesday’s election, Trustees Robert Huckins, Denise Barreto and Stephen Harlfinger were re-elected. They all beat out challenger Ken Tentler.

BARRINGTON HILLS – The village will have a new village president, according to unofficial results from Tuesday night.

Martin McLaughlin garnered 642 votes to defeat current Village President Robert Abboud, who received 499 votes.

Leading up to the Tuesday’s vote, McLaughlin said his top priorities were lowering the tax burdern for village residents and reducing spending. He also said he wanted to strengthen the village’s fiscal position.

In the trustees election, the race for the third seat up for grabs remains close, as Kelly Mazeski trails incumbent Fritz Gohl by three votes.

In the race for the three trustee seats, Colleen Konicek Hannigan led the field with 604 votes. Michael Harrington had 573 votes.

David Stieper was in fifth place with 553 votes.

HUNTLEY – Challenger Jay Kadakia was the lone losing candidate in the race for three trustee spots on the Huntley Board on Tuesday, while newcomer Ronda Goldman was the lead vote-getter.

Goldman captured 1,658 votes out of 6,220 total ballots cast in the trustee race that covered both McHenry and Kane counties, according to unofficial results from both county clerks. Incumbent John Piwko secured a third consecutive term, finishing second with 1,592 votes.

Challenger J.R. Westberg redeemed himself, finishing third with 1,544 votes, after he lost a first-time trustee bid in 2009.

Kadakia captured 1,426 votes, but it wasn’t enough for the former village trustee. The Tuesday election night loss also comes after Kadakia unsuccessfully ran for McHenry County Board in November.

Kownick wins Cary presidency

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com CARY – In a sometimes heated election, Mark Kownick edged out Village Trustee Bruce Kaplan to become the next village president.

According to Tuesday’s unofficial results, Kownick had 1,450 votes to Kaplan’s 1,305 votes.

Kownick will replace current Village President Tom Kierna, who decided not to run for another term.

Both camps watched results at downtown Cary establishments Tuesday evening. Kaplan was at Galati’s Pizza & Pasta. Kownick was at his campaign headquarters at the High Road Events Building.

As the final precincts’ numbers were posted, Kownick, who was a trustee from 2009-11, declared victory and prepared to open a few bottles of champagne.

“I think our ground work and message resonated with the people,” Kownick said.

Kownick, owner of Action Building Maintenance Corp., said the Village Board can take the town to the next level and bring retail development to help make Cary a destination. Additional retail would help bring in more sales tax to town and reduce the property-tax burden on residents, he said.

Kownick supporters remained confident throughout the evening.

Kownick said campaign volunteers estimated that he was up by 150 to 155 votes.

Leading up to the election, Kownick and Kaplan differed on economic development strategies.

Kownick wanted to look at finding as many sales-tax-generating businesses as possible for the retail area. He said he wanted reasonable fees for development.

“I ran a clean, fact-based campaign,” Kownick said. “I stuck to that message, and it resonated with all of Cary.”

Kaplan, who did not immediately concede, said that the roughly 150-vote margin would be hard to overcome.

“I don’t expect that to change overnight,” Kaplan said. “I still look forward to being on the board and have a vote and move the agenda forward. ... It was a good experience; I’m glad I [ran].”

Kaplan, a local real estate agent, said he doesn’t wish Kownick any ill will.

“He’s earned the position; he will no doubt perform well,” Kaplan said. “He’s a capable person, intelligent person. He has some good ideas. The one thing he has to figure out is mayor is a figurehead position. It’s always been a trustee form of government.”

Kaplan will remain on the board; his term as trustee expires in 2015.

ISLAND LAKE

ISLAND LAKE – Despite nearly getting kicked off the ballot, Island Lake mayoral candidate Charles Amrich won Tuesday evening.

Amrich defeated incumbent Mayor Debbie Herrmann in a 1,275 to 357 vote margin, according to preliminary numbers, which do not include provisional and late absentee ballots.

Amrich, who was Island Lake’s mayor from 1985 to 2005, headed the For the People slate against Herrmann’s United for Progress party.

He successfully challenged the Island Lake Electoral Board’s decision to remove him from the ballot, and the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office is investigating a robo-call warning residents against Amrich.

The For the People slate swept the election Tuesday, also ousting incumbent City Clerk Connie Mascillino. Teresa S. Ponio won, 1,197 to 449.

Kelly easily wins election to take Jackson Jr.’s seat

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Former Illinois state Rep. Robin Kelly, whose campaign received a $2 million boost from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, easily captured Tuesday’s special election to replace former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. The win for the Matteson Democrat was widely expected as the Chicago-area district, which Jackson represented from 1995 until late last year, has been a Democratic stronghold for roughly six decades. Robin Kelly Kelly emerged from a crowded field in the February primary by focusing heavily on anti-gun efforts and was helped by ads from Bloomberg’s super PAC. Kelly, 56, vowed to become a leader in the federal fight for gun control legislation and echoed the promise after her win.

“I’ll continue to speak about it in the district. I’ll continue to be in touch with those who have lost their children.

I’ll speak out where I can in D.C.,” she told The Associated Press before her victory speech in Matteson.

She easily won over Republican community activist Paul McKinley, three independent candidates and a Green Party candidate in the district that includes city neighborhoods, suburbs and rural areas.

Her win also marked the end of an era for voters who had supported Jackson at the polls with healthy majorities each election after he took office. The Chicago Democrat

stepped down in November after a mysterious medical leave where full details were never disclosed to the public. He cited his health and acknowledged he was under federal investigation in his resignation letter.

Months later – as campaigning to replace him ramped up – he pleaded guilty to charges that he misspent $750,000 in campaign funds on everything from toilet paper to furs.

Jackson was the third congressman in the district to leave under an ethical cloud, and many voters said Tuesday that they were just ready for a change.

“It hurt my heart. I had him way up here on a pedestal,” said Robert Pierson, a Dolton resident who cast a ballot for Kelly on Tuesday. “I hope this time we are going to get it right.”

Other voters said it was Kelly’s attention to anti-gun efforts that made her an attractive candidate. Guns became the top issue during the campaign – particularly before the primary – and ads from Bloomberg’s PAC played up that Kelly supports an assault weapons ban. The television spots also targeted one of her primary opponents, former one-term U.S. Rep. Debbie Halvorson, who has received favorable ratings from the National Rifle Association.

Some voters, and certainly Kelly’s political opponents, questioned the outside involvement. There were allegations of Kelly colluding with Bloomberg, which is prohibited. She dismissed those claims.

However, some voters said Tuesday they didn’t mind Bloomberg’s involvement, particularly on the issue of guns and violence.

Larson and Walters could not edge out competition • MCC Continued from page A1 for 24 years, said some challengers focused only on the health club aspect of the college’s plan, although it would make up only a portion of an expansion.

“The candidates hung their hats on a lie to scare people,” Larson said. “Because they threw the mud the farthest, they got the votes.”

Throughout the campaign, Jenner and Wilbeck were critical of the sitting board members and college administration, but Jenner said he looks forward to forming a new working relationship with them.

“I’ve been on the District 26 board for eight years,” Jenner said. “We’ve always had civil and rational conversations, and I intend to approach it that same way.”

Larson expressed disappointment at the election results, saying she was worried about the direction certain new trustees, namely Jenner and Wilbeck, will take the college.

“I’m afraid they’re just going to make one-agenda decisions, such as they don’t want to spend any money,” Lar-

son said. “That’s not a good decision. A good decision is how do we spend that money well.”

Jenner said support from Chicago-based Citizen Advocates for Taxpayer Accountability could have played a role in his win with Wilbeck and Walsh. The organization endorsed and bankrolled marketing materials for the three.

But Walsh made it clear she was not on a platform with the two men, although signs with their three names popped up all over the county.

“I was running my own campaign, and those were the result of an organization that endorsed all three of us,” Walsh said.

MCC’s district also spills into Boone, Lake and Kane counties, where the incumbents Larson and Barbara Walters did well, but not enough to edge out the competition. Both have been on the board for more than two decades.

Out of the nine candidates running, Walters and Larson came in fourth and sixth place, respectively.

Mike Smith, Arne Waltmire, William Scott Alford and Erik Sivertsen also were vying for seats on the board.

No sense of panic in North Korean capital

By JEAN H. LEE The Associated Press PYONGYANG, North Korea – Scores of North Koreans of all ages planted trees as part of a forestation campaign – armed with shovels, not guns. In the evening, women in traditional dress danced in the plazas to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the late leader Kim Jong Il’s appointment to a key defense post.

Despite another round of warnings from their leaders of impending nuclear war, there was no sense of panic in

the capital on Tuesday.

Chu Kang Jin, a Pyongyang resident, said everything is calm in the city.

“Everyone, including me, is determined to turn out as one to fight for national reunification ... if the enemies spark a war,” he added, using nationalist rhetoric common among many North Koreans when speaking to the media.

The North’s latest warning, issued by its Asia-Pacific Peace Committee, urged foreign companies and tourists to leave South Korea.

“The situation on the Kore-

cerning, it is provocative,” he said.

The warning appeared to be an attempt to scare foreigners into pressing their governments to pressure Washington and Seoul to act to avert a conflict.

Analysts see a direct attack on Seoul as extremely unlikely, and there are no overt signs that North Korea’s army is readying for war, let alone a nuclear one.

North Korea has been girding for a showdown with the U.S. and South Korea, its wartime foes, for months. The Ko-

an Peninsula is inching close to a thermonuclear war due to the evermore undisguised hostile actions of the United States and the South Korean puppet warmongers and their moves for a war against” North Korea, the committee said in a statement carried by state media on Tuesday.

There was no sign of an exodus of foreign companies or tourists from South Korea.

White House spokesman Jay Carney called the statement “more unhelpful rhetoric.”

“It is unhelpful, it is con-

rean War ended in 1953 with an armistice, not a peace treaty, leaving the peninsula still technically at war.

In December, North Korea launched a satellite into space on a rocket that Washington and others called a cover for a long-range missile test. The North followed that with an underground nuclear test in February, a step toward mastering the technology for mounting an atomic bomb on a missile.

Tightened U.N. sanctions that followed drew the ire of North Korea, which accused

Washington and Seoul of leading the campaign against it.

Annual U.S.-South Korean military drills south of the border have further incensed Pyongyang, which sees them as practice for an invasion.

Last week, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un enshrined the pursuit of nuclear weapons – which the North characterizes as a defense against the U.S. – as a national goal, along with improving the economy. North Korea also declared it would restart a mothballed nuclear complex.

He said several people refused treatment at the scene.

Harris County Sheriff Adrian Garcia said officers responded to the campus after receiving a call about a male “on the loose” stabbing people. He said it was not immediately clear what type of weapon was used.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Kerry said the parties all committed to a process that could “create the conditions for peace” so that they can return to the negotiating table. Kerry said he would soon announce new measures to help the Palestinian economy, but offered no details on how he plans to tackle the deeper issues at the heart of the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Kerry stressed that he was mindful of the “good intentions and failed efforts” that have dogged Middle East diplomacy in the past and said he’d focus on “laying the groundwork so we can bring people to the table with a clear understanding of what we’re beginning on, what we’re trying to do, and where we’re trying to end up.”

8BRIEFS NTSB: Pilot's texting contributed to crash

AP photo

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., speaks with reporters Tuesday following a Democratic strategy session at the Capitol in Washington. Reid said he plans showdown vote on gun control on Thursday.

Gun control vote set Thursday in Senate

By ALAN FRAM The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The Senate’s top Democrat is setting Congress’ first showdown vote for Thursday on President Barack Obama’s gun control drive as a small but mounting number of Republicans appear willing to buck a conservative effort to prevent debate from even beginning.

Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada announced his decision Tuesday as the White House, congressional Democrats and relatives of the victims of December’s mass shooting in Newtown, Conn., amped up pressure on GOP lawmakers to allow debate and votes on gun control proposals. Twenty first-graders and six educators were gunned down at Sandy Hook Elementary School, turning gun control into a top-tier national issue.

“We have a responsibility to safeguard these little kids,” Reid said on the Senate floor, pointing to a poster-sized photo of a white picket fence that had slats bearing the names of the Newtown victims. “And unless we do something more than what’s the law today, we have failed.”

“We don’t have the guts to stand up and vote yes or no?

We want to vote maybe? Tell that to the families in Newtown” and other communities where there have been mass shootings, said Senate Judicia-

ry Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. But Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, one of 13 conservative senators who want to block the debate, said the Senate bill puts “burdens on law abiding citizens exercising a constitutional right.”

He said none of its provisions “would have done anything to prevent the horrible tragedy of Sandy Hook.”

Obama was calling senators from both parties Tuesday to push for the gun bill, according to a White House official.

Reid’s determination to stage a vote came despite continued inconclusive talks between Sens. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Patrick Toomey, R-Pa., aimed at finding compromise on expanding background checks to more gun purchasers. Such a compromise would be likely to attract bipartisan support because both lawmakers are among their parties’ most conservative members.

The checks, aimed at keeping firearms from criminals and certain other buyers, are the cornerstone of Obama’s gun plan, which has been struggling in Congress. Democrats have been buoyed by polls consistently showing more than 8 in 10 Americans support subjecting more buyers to background checks.

A Senate vote to begin debating the guns package would mark a temporary victory for Obama and his allies.

WASHINGTON – Texting by the pilot of a medical helicopter contributed to a crash that killed four people, federal accident investigators declared Tuesday, and they approved a safety alert cautioning all pilots against using cellphones or other distracting devices during critical operations.

It was the first fatal commercial aircraft accident investigated by the National Transportation Safety Board in which texting has been implicated.

And it underscored the board’s worries that distractions from electronic devices are a growing factor in incidents across all modes of transportation – planes, trains, cars, trucks and even ships. While no U.S. airline crashes have been tied

to electronic device use, the Federal Aviation Administration in January proposed regulations prohibiting airline flight crews from using cellphones and other wireless devices while a plane is in operation.

Student arrested in college stabbing attack CYPRESS, Texas – A student went on a building-to-building stabbing attack at a Texas community college Tuesday, wounding at least 14 people before being subdued and arrested, authorities said.

The attack about 11:20 a.m. on the Lone Star Community College System’s campus in Cypress sent at least 12 people to area hospitals, including four taken by helicopter, according to Cy-Fair Volunteer Fire Department spokesman Robert Rasa.

Kerry upbeat after 3 days of Mideast diplomacy TEL AVIV, Israel – U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Tuesday wrapped up three days of high-level Mideast diplomacy on a positive note, saying he held “very constructive talks” with Israeli and Palestinian leaders and promising to press on in an effort to break a four-year deadlock over resuming direct negotiations.

Man kills at least 13 in Serbian shooting rampage The ASSOCIATED PRESS VELIKA IVANCA, Serbia – He went from house to house in the village at dawn, cold-bloodedly gunning down his mother, his son, a 2-yearold cousin and 10 other neighbors. Terrified residents said if a police patrol car hadn’t shown up, they all would have been dead.

Police said they knew of no motive yet in the carnage Tuesday that left six men, six women and a child dead in Velika Ivanca, a Serbian village 30 miles southeast of Belgrade.

After the rampage, police said suspect Ljubisa Bogdanovic, a 60-year-old who saw action in one of the bloodiest sieges of the Balkan wars, turned his gun on himself and his wife as authorities closed in. Both were in grave condition at a hospital in the Serbian capital.

In the small lush village surrounded by fruit trees, the

suspect’s older brother Radmilo broke down in tears, unable to explain why the massacre had happened.

“Why did he do it? ... I still can’t believe it,” he said sobbing, covering his face with his hands. “He was a model of honesty.”

“As a child, he was a frightened little boy. I used to defend him from other children.

He couldn’t even slaughter a chicken,” he said.

But he said his brother had changed after serving in the army during a brutal Serb-led offensive against the eastern Croatian town of Vukovar in 1992 – the worst bloodshed during Croatia’s 1991-95 war for independence.

“The war had burdened him,” Radmilo, 62, told The Associated Press in an interview. “He used to tell me: God forbid you live through what I went through ... Something must have clicked in his head for him to do this.”

NEVER BUY LAUNDRY DETERGENT AGAIN Natural molecule generator used by hosp tals to super wash clothes now ava lable to publ c

By John Wh tehead, Med a Serv ces

A natural cleansing molecule generator that is used by hospitals to super wash clothes and other fabrics has finally been made available to the public.

This generator produces Hydroxyl Radical (HR) Molecules which are one of nature’s most powerful cleansers. Nature uses Hydroxyl Radicals to purify the air and water. The HR Molecule also sanitizes and deodorizes air and water.

HR Molecules are in higher density in a storm and this is why the air smells so fresh after a thunderstorm.

The HR Molecule Generator was developed for hospitals 20 years ago because laundry detergents were causing many problems. Laundry detergents promote germs, leave chemicals that cause irritation and infection, pollute the air, clog drains, reduce the life of clothing, linens and towels, and were a major expense for hospitals to buy.

They also caused stiffness in fabrics which forced hospitals to spend even more money on softeners.

The hospital HR Molecule Generators were large and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. But, recently, a high tech company was able to produce a high quality, effective, and inexpensive domestic unit. This unit is being produced by the famous EdenPURE® Company and is now available to the public under the brand name PureWash®.

The PureWash® pays for itself quickly and then starts putting an estimated $1,557.38 extra cash in your pocket each year. The savings come from: not having to buy laundry detergent and softeners; cuts in energy bills; increasing the life of your clothes, linens, towels, and other fabrics by over 100%; and many other costs that are incurred by using laundry detergents.

The PureWash® also reduces pollution in your home and benefits the environment.

For more information on this sensational new product, PureWash®, here is my most educational interview with Julius Toth, New Product Developer for EdenPURE®, who is also known as the “Healthy Home Professor.”

Q: Are the HR Molec u l e s p ro d u c e d b y t h e PureWash® safe?

A: They are not only safe, but they create a lot of benefits for the user and the environment. HR Molecules are naturally occurring in nature. They are nature’s cleanser, sanitizer, and deodorizer.

The HR Molecules, after they are used to clean your clothes, will actually help purify the air, water, and the environment after they go down the drain.

They will also sanitize your clothes from germs and bacteria.

One of the many common chemicals found in laundry detergents are naphthas, which have been linked to cancer, lung damage, inflammation, and mucous membrane damage.

PureWash ® also helps the environment because you do not have all of the plastic bottles from laundry detergent and softeners going to landfills.

Q: Is the PureWash ®

Makes clothes soft, odor free, bacter a free, chem cal free and ncreases clothes l fe 100%

The PureWash® produces the HR Molecule as the active i gredie t which is ra ked Number 1 i clea i g power

The top lau dry deterge ts use chlori e as the active i gredie t which is ra ked Number 16 i clea i g power

Your clothes will look like The HR Molecule is the most ew for a lo g, lo g time. p o w e r f u l f a b r i c c l e a e r.

“Pays for itself quickly a d puts $1,557.38 extra cash i your pocket each year after.”

NO MORE:

• Lau dry deterge t • Softe ers • Drai clogs • Septic clogs • Water pollutio • Color fadi g • Li t • Stiff ess • Separati g colors • Air pollutio • Germs & Bacteria • Ski I fectio • Chemical odors easy to use?

A: It couldn’t be easier.

All you do is unscrew the cold water feed that goes into your washer, and screw it onto the intake of the PureWash ® . ou then screw a provided hose onto the output of the PureWash ® and onto the cold water intake of your washer. ou can then either attach the PureWash® to the wall with four provided screws, or, just hook it on the back of your washer with a provided hook. ou then plug it in and you are ready to go. That is all there is to it. ou no longer need hot water and you will no longer have to worry about cleaning your lint trap, worry about clogged drains, or clogged septic tanks. In fact, it will help the efficiency of your septic tank.

Q: Will the PureWash® clea clothes as well as the best lau dry deterge ts?

A: It will clean them a lot better. Whites will be whiter, and colors will be brighter.

In the ranking of fabric cleaning substances, HR Molecules rank number one in cleaning power and the active ingredient in the top laundry detergents, which is chlorine, ranks number 16 in cleaning power.

Q: What are some of the other be efits of the PureWash®?

A: Here are just a few. ou will no longer have: laundry detergents, softeners, drain clogs, septic clogs, water pollution, color fading, stiffness, separating colors, air pollution, bacteria, skin infection or chemical odors.

Q: How does the PureWash® save mo ey for the user?

A: There are countless ways the PureWash ® will save money for the average household. To start out with you won’t ever have to use hot water again. Therefore, you save on energy bills and you don’t use up the hot water in your hot water tank so that you always have a hot water supply for showers and baths. It also reduces energy costs for dryers because clothes dry faster than clothes with built-up laundry detergent. The energy savings costs are an estimated $426.48 a year. Next, you save money by never having to buy laundry detergent or clothes softeners again. This alone will save an estimated $643.50. The average household will save an estimated $487.40 a year on clothes, linens, towels, and other fabrics. Laundry

detergents’ harsh chemicals break down the threads in fabrics. They also break down the colors and grey the whites. The buildup detergent in fabrics makes them stiff and act like sand paper which further destroys fabrics. We have estimated the PureWash ® will extend their life by over 100%. The estimated total savings is $1,557.38 a year for the average household.

The PureWash® only uses electricity when you are washing and consumes less electric than an average light bulb. The user will also no longer have clogged drains because of laundry detergent buildup and lint buildup, and no more clogged septic tanks. The PureWash® will also save a great deal on health care and health remedies due to the health problems caused by laundry detergents.

Q: What are these health problems caused by lau dry deterge t?

A: Laundry detergents do not kill germs, viruses, and bacteria in clothing and in fact, promote them after they are washed. This is one of the main reasons hospitals went away from laundry detergents. Also the harsh chemicals in laundry detergents can cause serious skin irritation and infections. Laundry detergents also put harmful pollutants into the air which can cause respiratory and other health problems.

Laundry detergent chemicals left in clothing are also absorbed by the skin and become toxic chemicals that go throughout the blood stream in the body causing many health problems.

The PureWash® also reduces allergies caused by laundry detergent residue in fabrics.

Q: How lo g will it take for the user to get the harmful lau dry deterge t out of their existi g clothes with the PureWash®?

A: It will take on average about 5 washings. After that, a user will experience great joy. Their clothing will be soft, bright, odor free, and irritant free. Their towels and wash cloths will be fluffy and perform better.

Their sheets and pillow cases will be smooth, odor free, and non-irritating.

Also after about 5 washings, you will no longer have to sort clothes by color, because you eliminate hot water and bleach.

Q: How ca my readers get this amazi g PureWash® A: The following limited time offer in affect provides this product free. For the average household the monthly cost of laundry detergent and fabric softeners is $53.00. In addition, the PureWash® cuts $36.00 off your energy bill a month.

Uphold video gaming ban The addictions of some should not be exploited for the benefit of others.

And that is why we ask the McHenry County Board to keep its ban on video gaming in unincorporated areas of the county.

The board’s Liquor and License Committee voted, 4-1, Monday to recommend the County Board repeal the December 2009 ban, which it put in place shortly after the Illinois General Assembly legalized video gambling in establishments serving alcohol to help pay for a $30 billion capital bill.

Counties and municipalities were allowed to opt out, and Cary, Crystal Lake and Lakewood did so. Fourteen municipalities in McHenry County allow it, with Algonquin joining in just last week.

The state allows machines to have a maximum bet of $2, with maximum payouts of $500. After winnings are paid, the state gets 25 percent of the take, municipalities 5 percent, and the remaining 70 percent is split between owners of the local establishments and owners of the gaming machines.

The McHenry County Board’s ban affects 60 establishments in unincorporated parts of the county. Those owners say the ban is unfair and leading to decreased revenue as patrons take their business elsewhere.

There were 134 machines registered in 12 municipalities with territory within McHenry County, which netted those governments a total of $22,816 in February, according to the Illinois Gaming Board. The state received $114,073 from those machines last month, and a total of almost $3.4 million statewide.

Times are tough. Money is tight and the state’s fiscal health continues to be gloomy.

But our stance on this has not changed. The cost of helping these establishments get additional revenue needs to be balanced with the harm it could be causing an individual with an addiction and a family who may not be able to afford losing the dollars pumped into a machine with an often false hope of a big payout.

That cost is too high. The full County Board is set to vote on the repeal next week. We urge members to uphold the ban.

Cleaner air Whenever the federal government enacts new standards to reduce pollution, we can count on affected industries to complain loudly about the cost to them and ultimately to their customers of implementing the changes. What sometimes gets lost in the clamor are the health benefits of the new standards.

That appears to be the case with the decision last month by the environmental Protection Agency to move forward with a rule requiring cleaner gasoline and lower-pollution vehicles nationwide. The change amounts to one of the most significant air pollution initiatives of President Barack Obama’s administration.

Predictably, oil industry officials are up in arms. [But] the health benefits resulting from the new rule are likely to be significant.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Be a school To the Editor: Why doesn’t McHenry County College concentrate on being a school. It is a community college, and we certainly don’t need all the frills including the proposed Taj Mahal.

Don’t need the concrete pads or to decorate the front of the school.

Don’t need your pulling statistics out of the blue sky in an attempt to prove the county growth projections and other matters.

Don’t need a construction firm to do a feasibility study. It was in error, so there was a redo at extra cost. May a firm that does feasibility studies bid on your proposed future construction?

Don’t need a garden with an underground sprinkling system.

Don’t need a health club. Whose brilliant idea was that? Cost $39 a month. Is it a profitable venture and will your fees be competitive with the 20 other clubs nearby?

You now have to charge more. I guess that more employment is good for the county. If the clubs fails financially, will it become a perk for staff and students?

Don’t need you to attempt to violate the Crystal Lake watershed.

Period.

I double-dare you to go to a

referendum. It will sink faster than a vessel in the cardboard boat regatta.

Better morals To the Editor: I would like to comment on the difficulty of our state and country paying bills and pensions for us. I think it is time for the people who we vote for to be true leaders and actually lead by example.

I haven’t heard or read about any of them taking pay cuts or cutting their retirement. Maybe it is time we honestly do all stick together.

The tollway was supposed to be paid for a few years after it was built in the early 1960s. I think it has passed that deadline.

The lottery started here in the state about 1983. The profits were supposed to go to roads and our schools.

Don’t you think that with higher taxes and these two profitmakers, we should be in better shape financially?

So I think our voted employees should do what they all want us to do. Cut their salaries and pensions, then they might be able to solve some of our problems.

I am a hardworking IBOFW em-

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

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

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

ployee. I live here and pay my fair share of taxes.

Letting illegal immigrants live more than one family in a singlefamily home is not helping, either.

Don’t see too much being done with that.

I sure hope that the leaders of this country change their moneyhungry thoughts to thoughts of better morals.

Equal pay To the Editor: April 9 was Equal Pay Day. Each year, the date of Equal Pay Day is obtained by computing how far into 2013 women must work to earn what men earned for the year 2012.

In October 2012, AAUW released “Graduating to a Pay Gap: The

Earnings of Women and Men One Year after College Graduation.”

The report, which uses the latest nationally representative data, compares “apples to apples” by looking at the pay gap after controlling for various factors affecting earnings: occupation, college major, and hours worked.

This study reinforces research for the 2007 publication, “Beyond the Pay Gap.” In spite of widespread efforts to dismiss the pay disparity, the difference cannot be explained away by women’s choices. Are women charged 23 percent less college tuition then men? When women attend college and accept their first jobs, fairness would dictate equal wages. Fair is fair. Support equal pay for everyone based on employment, not on gender.

Dream, love, smile, cry, rejoice, fear ... all through poetry “April is the cruelest month,” T. S. Eliot announces in the first line of his poem “The Wasteland.” But April is so much more than that.

It’s National Poetry Month, a 30-day celebration, inaugurated by the Academy of American Poets in 1996, to encourage all of us to think about poetry and poets in our culture.

Last year about this time, I challenged each of you to check out a poem – any poem – and spend a little time with it. I trust that you completed your assignment. This year, I propose that you continue your relationship with poetry. If you say you don’t like poetry, it’s a little like saying you don’t like food.

Maybe you don’t like pickled pigs feet (me, neither), but you might like a fruit salad. So hang out with me for a little while, and let’s see if I can interest you in a poem that will suit your taste.

Without screaming or sniveling, poets want their poems to emotionally touch their readers. That’s why poets choose their words so carefully. Here are some lines, taken from poems that you may want to read completely.

(Fear) “The Colonel” by Carolyn Forche: “The colonel returned with a sack used to bring groceries home.

He spilled many human ears on the table. They were like dried peach

halves.”

(Disappointment) “The Spring and The Fall” by Edna St. Vincent Millay: “There’s much that’s fine to see and hear in the spring of a year, in the fall of a year. ’Tis not love’s going hurt my days, but that it went in little ways.”

(Joy) “I Have a Lamb” by Jack Prelutsky, our nation’s first Children’s Poet Laureate: “I have a lamb that loves to dance, it dances every day, and every time it has a chance, it practices baaaaa-let.”

(Gratitude) “The Reading Mother” by Strickland Gillilan: “You may have tangible wealth untold; Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.

Richer than I you can never be – I had a Mother who read to me.”

Abraham Lincoln, so the story goes, had a favorite poem. He loved and could recite from memory all 56 lines of “Mortality,” which begins like this: “O why should the spirit of mortal be proud!

Like a fast flitting meteor, a fast flying cloud, A flash of the lightning, a break of the wave – He passes from life to his rest in the grave.”

Lincoln was drawn to the words long before he discovered their author’s name, William Knox. Some

Editorial Board: John Rung, Dan McCaleb, Jason Schaumburg, Kevin Lyons, Jon Styf, Kate Schott, Stacia Hahn

VIEWS Jan Bosman say the poet and poem, about death, the great leveler, would be nearly forgotten without their connection to Lincoln. Take a little time to read the whole poem. For a few minutes, you will feel connected to our popular 16th president.

The other night, I was at Duke’s in Crystal Lake with some friends when I brought up the subject of poetry – the perfect topic over a burger and a couple of beers. I asked if anyone had a favorite poem or could remember some lines from one. Mike piped up, “Cannons to the right of them. Cannons to the left of them. Cannons in front of them ...

Into the valley of death rode the 600 (from Tennyson’s “Charge of the Light Brigade”).

Mike’s wife turned to him and said, “How do you remember that?

You can’t even remember our anniversary.”

But that’s how it is with powerful poetry! If it connects with you in the right setting and the right frame of mind, it remains with you forever, like a haunting song lyric. And, by

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

the way, your children and grandchildren are reading renowned poems from their thick literature books. Also, they are creating their own poetry books and participating in poetry slams such as the one Jim May promotes at the Spoken Word Café in Woodstock every year. We, adults, need to keep up.

Last year, I’ll admit, I was scheduled to participate in the Slam; but I lost my nerve and sneaked out because I felt a little like Grandma Moses at the prom. When I heard all of the young students chanting and rapping, I was afraid they wouldn’t “get” my poems entitled “Claudine Longet” and “The Bird Feeder.” I was unable to take my own advice about there being a poem for everyone’s taste and that we all can sample from the same buffet.

In 2013, you are so lucky. If you want to nibble on some poetry during Poetry Month, you don’t even need a book. Just use a search engine and type in any of the titles I’ve given you. You can find the poem and sometimes hear it being read aloud by a spectacular voice such as that of James Earl Jones. Or, you can go to Poets.org and ask to have a Poem-A-Day e-mailed to you.

Some offerings were written long ago; some are current. Some rhyme; some don’t. Some you may under-

stand on a first reading; some you may have to read twice. But, once again, try a sample. If you don’t like it, taste something else.

Or, couples, spend a little time together, sitting in a hot tub while reading Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s Sonnet 43 to each other: “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.” Perhaps you will get turned on more quickly by those lines than by a second glass of wine.

By this time next year when I ask for a show of hands, I know you’ll be able to say that you have read and connected to at least one poem in 12 months. So I leave you with this invitation. Well, actually, it’s Shel Silversteen’s “Invitation”: “If you are a dreamer, come in.

If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar, A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer . . .

If you’re a pretender, come sit by my fire For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.

Come in!

Come in!”

FIRE DAMAGES HOMES, VEHICLES ALGONQUIN – Two homes and two vehicles were damaged Monday night in a fire, according to the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District.

Firefighters were called to a home on the 2900 block of Talaga Drive in Algonquin around 10 p.m. for a report of a structure fire, according to a news release. Crews arrived to find a two-story town house on fire.

The flames had spread to the garage and the roof of the home, and two vehicles in the driveway also were on fire, the news release states. The fire also spread to the outside of an adjoining town house, which sustained smoke damage inside.

No one was injured.

Firefighters from Huntley and Crystal Lake assisted with the blaze, which is still under investigation.

J’burg ex-principal arrested Police say former private school leader sent ‘offensive’ letters to parents

By LAWERENCE SYNETT lsynett@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – A former private school principal in Johnsburg has been arrested after she sent “offensive” letters to parents of students, according to the Johnsburg Police Department.

Pamela Dvonch, 63, was charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct Sunday in connection with at least 16 letters recently sent to parents of students at St. John the

Baptist Catholic School.

The letters – a sheet of paper in an envelope with a few words Pamela on it – forced Dvonch authorities to post police officers at the school April 2 as a precautionary measure.

The cards were sent to parents on the school’s parent advisory board and fundraising committee, as well as

the pastor at the church and a separate parishioner, Johnsburg Police Chief Keith Von Allmen said. The cards were homemade.

An investigation later linked Dvonch to the letters, and she surrendered to police Sunday. She previously worked at the school for more than 20 years.

“Inside the cards, there were offensive statements directed at the parent,” Von Allmen previously told the Northwest Herald. “I want to

make it clear that it was not a threatening comment.”

Dvonch was charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct because of to the disruption the letters caused at the school, Von Allmen said Monday.

“Disorderly conduct is a breach of the peace,” he said. “The disruption that occurred at the school was caused by these letters.”

Current Principal Maureen Jackson confirmed Monday that Dvonch was a former

D-200 educator earns Ill. IT award

Coming out to watch, practice in the cold

– Lawerence Synett

We live on a flowered planet, so it’s not surprising that plants have twined their way deep into all aspects of human culture, from medicine to art.

Certain plants seem to work on the mind, and some appeal to the emotions and imagination.

No matter what meanings we ascribe to them, plants maintain their mystery.

Ponder the miracle of a blossoming plant as you stroll outside this spring, and relish in the beauty and variety that is offered on Earth. Collect pictures and discover the differences in plants and ask why. Learn about native and invasive plants, how they help or hinder, why they are here in Illinois and how they got here.

Appreciating the unique goodness of our native fauna is a history lesson in disguise, and brings one closer to the community.

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Ask anyone: Jerry Swedberg is without a doubt the best director of technology District 200 has ever had.

Then again, he’s also the only director of technology the district has ever had.

Swedberg started in the classroom 29 years ago, and became the technology coordinator 13 years later when the Woodstock-based district identified a need for such a position.

He designed and implemented the first computer labs and networks in the district.

Last month, Swedberg was honored for his efforts when he received the Illinois Computing Educators’ Making IT Happen Award.

The state’s affiliate of the larger International Society for Technology Educators gives the award to two people a year for their commitment and innovation in the field of educational technology.

“It’s really great to be noticed for things that you love doing and would do anyway,” Swedberg said. “It’s humbling to be placed in that category with the people that have gone before.”

Victims’ families call for Jacobs science team national compassion fund preps for state final Fund would help those affected by large-scale tragedies such as shootings

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com In the weeks after the movie theater mass shooting in Aurora, Colo., charities began using pictures of the 12 people who were killed, including Crystal Lake native John Larimer, to raise money.

During the months that followed, the victims’ families had a difficult time receiving the money that people thought would benefit them.

So 64 family members of victims of tragedies have called on the federal government to establish a protocol for national compassion funds in the event of largescale tragedies, such as the mass shootings in Aurora and Newtown, Conn.

“It’s amazing, we have so many things in common, even though they are different events and different times,” said Scott Larimer,

John Larimer’s father.

There is an online petition at WhiteHouse.gov where people can show their support.

Representatives of families affected by the Aurora shooting have said charities used victims’ pictures without their permission.

“We looked at all these different disaster events and all had common things,” Larimer said. “A major fundraiser more interested in their own business model than making sure victims were taken care of.”

According to a news release from group spokeswoman Caryn Kaufman, victims’ families from the Columbine High School shooting, the Sept. 11 attacks, the Virginia Tech shooting, the Northern Illinois University shooting, the Aurora, Colo., theater shootings and the Oak Creek, Wis., Sikh temple shooting were victimized again because they

The families of those affected by the events should be able to make decisions on how the money is spent, Larimer said.

“If I go to the funeral and put a sympathy card and put in a check ... it goes to the family,” Larimer said. “If the family wants to donate it to Save the Whales, or a cancer fund, or put it into a scholarship, if that makes them feel better, God bless them. That’s how it should go.”

After tragic events, nonprofits established themselves as the go-to place to solicit, collect and distribute donations to support victims’ families, Kaufman

sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – The students who form the Jacobs High School Science Olympiad team have spent this week refining their scientific know-how as they vie for a state championship against the top high school olympiads.

Jacobs coach Phil Timm said the 14 varsity students who placed second in the regional competition against 13 area high schools on March 16 had the best regional finish at Jacobs in the past three years.

Last year’s olympiads finished fourth in regionals and ultimately placed second in the state competition. But Timm wasn’t making any bold predictions about this year’s contest.

“Obviously, the students will do their best,” Timm said. “I cannot ask for more.”

Fresh off the strong regional finish, the varsity team, composed of seven seniors and seven juniors, has been studying concepts and test experiments and review-

Fund money would be tax exempt On the Net

• COMPASSION Continued from page B1 said. However, families found that the money was not going to them. Instead it was retained by the nonprofits or distributed to other causes that had little to do with the donor’s intent.

“It’s a tragedy what’s happening to us universally,” Larimer said.

To view or sign the petition, go to https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/ petition/families-worst-mass-murders-us-history-call-national-compassion-fund/qDKnB1wH Under the proposed protocol, a national compassion fund would be created specific to each tragedy and would have a consistent and trans-

parent infrastructure for donations. All the money donated would be distributed to victims or their families.

Money also would go toward those who were injured or psychologically traumatized by the tragedy. Donations would be tax-deductible and tax-exempt to victims and their families. The protocol also would be put into place to help prevent fraud.

Larimer said that after

receiving donations from numerous people, there was a question on whether it was taxable income. Families had to get a special ruling from the Internal Revenue Service.

A charity could be assigned to manage the fund, Larimer said.

“They could manage it and they have to do it the right way,” Larimer said. “If you try to pull a funny game, you could go to jail for fraud.”

The team tends to perform best in competitions involving anatomy, biology, chemistry and physics, and they perform

worse in categories such as forestry, rocks and minerals, since those subjects aren’t taught at Jacobs, Timm said.

The team will square off against students from the top 46 high school science olympiad teams throughout the state, including New Trier, Stevenson and Libertyville.

The shorthanded junior varsity team also had a strong

finish at regionals that included two first-place event finishes.

All told, the 18 members at both varsity and junior varsity levels took home 37 medals.

The 18 students are Emily Alessio, Jexenia Bennett, Sara Ciavarella, Nick Johanson, Dan Kosmas, Matt Messina, Siv Yeramatti, Thomas Chirayil, Michelle Lamblin,

Kristy Ma, Hari Manikindan, Justin Richman, Aoon Rizvi, Jason Schnecke, Jon Yan, Tarush Vig, Liam Frost and Tiger Shi. “I am proud of how the team has done,” Timm said.

“They are a great group to work with, and their success is related to their work. But I would be proud regardless of how they scored.”

3 people hurt in tollway crashes near Hampshire HAMPSHIRE – Three people involved in accidents Tuesday along Interstate 90, near Harmony Road, are being treated for injuries at area hospitals, Hampshire fire officials said in a news release.

The Hampshire Fire Protection District responded at 11:37 a.m. to a crash involving three semitrailers and a utility truck along Interstate 90, just west of Harmony Road, Deputy Chief Trevor Herrmann said in the release.

Firefighters spent 48 minutes freeing one person from a vehicle. The person was sent to OSF Saint Anthony Hospital in Rockford with serious injuries, Herrmann said.

Three other people were treated at the scene.

Within minutes of the first incident, another crash involving a semitrailer and two cars occurred.

Two people were taken to Provena St. Joseph Hospital in Elgin with injuries that were not life-threatening.

A third person was treated at the scene, Herrmann said.

Officials did not release the identities of the victims Tuesday.

Fire departments from Huntley, Pingree Grove, Burlington and Boone County assisted

with the crashes.

I-90 lanes to be shifted for construction prep In preparation for widening Interstate 90, eastbound traffic between Interstate 39 in Rockford and the Elgin Toll Plaza will be shifted to the westbound lanes starting Wednesday night.

The project includes rebuilding the toll road and adding a lane to each side, according to a news release from the Illinois Tollway. The inside lanes and shoulders also will be widened to accommodate future transit possibilities.

The eastbound lanes will be completed by the end of this year, and the westbound lanes are scheduled to be completed by the end of next year.

Most of the affected route will be kept to two lanes going each direction.

Only westbound traffic between Irene Road near Belvidere and I-39 will be reduced to one lane with an alternative route via U.S. Route 20 posted because the Kishwaukee River bridge is not wide enough for four lanes and a work zone.

No exits or entrance ramps will be closed, though some rerouting will be done at the some of the toll plazas.

What Distinguishes Lawyers?

NOW IS THE TIME FOR STOCKING!

To place an order call 800.247.2615

8LOCAL BRIEFS

Attorney Joe Gitlin of Woodstock was listed as one of the nation’s top 43 divorce lawyers in the National Law Journal and is listed in The Best Lawyers in America. He is also ranked as an Illinois Leading Lawyer (member of Advisory Board) and Super Lawyer.

Q: What distinguishes lawyers?

A: Not all lawyers are equal and lawyers are not interchangeable. Although they all have in common that they attend three years of law school, that is where it stops. What they studied as undergraduates makes a difference. So does their work experience before becoming a lawyer and their experience as a lawyer.

Q: Where does a lawyer’s experience enter into it?

A: For by-pass (heart) surgery I would not go to a cardiac surgeon who had only done a half dozen by-pass operations. I would want a surgeon who had done a thousand or more such procedures. The more you do a procedure the better you get.

Q: What distinguishes the family law firm of Gitlin, Busche & Stetler?

A: Training. For the most part we employ lawyers straight out of law school.

The reason is we want to train and teach the new lawyer, rather than hire a lawyer who brings bad habits from her/his former employment.

For the first six months a lawyer is at Gitlin, Busche & Stetler the new lawyer does no, or virtually no, client representation. Instead the new lawyer studies family law. The basic teaching tool is the lawyer reading the three volume work on divorce law, Gitlin on Divorce, A Guide to Illinois Matrimonial Law, from cover to cover. This book is the leading authoritative work on Illinois divorce law. So that the new lawyer learns the Gitlin, Busche & Stetler firm procedures, the new lawyer also reviews the Gitlin, Busche & Stetler handbook of policies and procedures. In addition each new lawyer is assigned a mentor, one of the senior members of the firm, with whom the new lawyer confers regularly. As soon as the new lawyer qualifies, by virtue of experience, the new lawyer is sent to the American Bar Association “boot camp” for new lawyers in Houston, Texas. This is a 7-day, 12-hour a day intensive training to teach family law lawyers how to litigate.

A: Joe Gitlin, from early in his law career, has been teaching family law lawyers their profession. He has lectured on family law to the leading bar groups, such as the American Bar Association Family Law Section, the Illinois Institute for Continuing Legal Education, the Chicago Bar Association Family Law Section, the McHenry County Bar Association, the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers etc. Gitlin also does in house teaching of the law. This is both in oneon-one sessions and weekly “file review conferences” when the firm meets to discuss and analyze issues facing clients.

When clients retain Gitlin, Busche & Stetler they have the advantage of having Joe Gitlin involved in their case, and usually it is at no cost to the client because it is part of the quality control procedure of the firm. Joe Gitlin was recognized by the National Law Journal as one of the nation’s top 43 divorce lawyers. For the 27 years the book Best Lawyers in America has been published Joe Gitlin has been listed in the family law category. Best Lawyers is considered to be the best and most exclusive rating service of lawyers. Joe Gitlin is also listed in Super Lawyers and Leading Lawyers. The Illinois appellate court said of Joe Gitlin in a published opinion, “His qualifications and experience in this field (family law) are impressive.” These are Q: What is Joe Gitlin’s role in assisting qualifications unparalleled in McHenry the lawyers in the firm?

Fakroddin appointed to RTA board CL Park District offers art classes

By JONATHAN BILYK

jbilyk@shawmedia.com

GENEVA – A former director of the Kane County Division of Transportation will represent Kane County on the Regional Transportation Authority.

Tuesday, County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen announced he had selected Nabi Fakroddin as the county’s representative on the RTA Board of Directors.

The RTA holds budget oversight of Metra, Pace and the Chicago Transit Authority.

The Kane County Board unanimously approved the selection.

Lauzen noted Fakroddin’s experience in transportation, gained over five decades of working for public transportation agencies and private engineering firms.

Fakroddin served as director of KDOT from 1984 to 1997, presiding over major construction projects on Randall Road, Orchard Road and Kirk Road.

Lauzen noted Fakroddin hired current KDOT Director Carl Schoedel, as well.

According to a resume distributed Tuesday, Fakroddin most recently worked from 2007 to 2010 as a senior project manager for HNTB in Downers Grove, overseeing various aspects of efforts to redesign and rebuild the Illinois Tollway system.

Lauzen also noted that Fakroddin, while accepting the $25,000 a year salary paid to RTA directors, has said he will decline the other benefits available to directors.

“I do not seek this position for making money, rather I seek to serve and protect the

interest of the taxpayers of Kane County,” Fakroddin wrote to Lauzen in a March 22 letter of interest.

Fakroddin will replace Kane County’s outgoing RTA representative, former County Board member Jan Carlson, who has served on the RTA board since he was appointed by former County Board Chairman Karen McConnaughay in 2008.

Fakroddin was selected from among a list of 26 other applicants for the RTA post, including several former County Board members.

Lake Michigan water costs to jump in 2016

By JESSE CARPENDER jcarpender@shawmedia.com What most concerns residents of the six communities that will switch from well water to Lake Michigan water is the cost, said Phil Perna, associate director of Lake County’s department of public works.

At an open house Saturday in Lake Villa, several of the 50 residents attending asked about the fees involved.

“Individually, I don’t know what this is going to mean for me. I’m retired and on a fixed income,” said James Dayhuff of Lindenhurst. “This seems like a reasonable plan right now, but I just don’t know yet.

If my neighbors don’t use as much water as me, am I going to be paying more?”

Dayhuff lives in one of the six area communities that are switching to Lake Michigan water because local wells are drying up.

Lake Villa, Lindenhurst, Volo, Wauconda and parts of unincorporated Lake County including Grandwood Park and Fox Lake Hills plan to join the Central Lake County Joint

“In most cases, if we don’t go to Lake Michigan water, we have to drill more wells and create a water treatment system.”

Phil Perna Associate director of Lake County’s department of public works Action Water Agency.

A 22-mile water piping extension will bring treated Lake Michigan water from the water agency to the newly joined communities. The project will cost $40 million.

Based on a home worth $200,000 with 6,000 gallons of water used per month, the fee would be $30 a year for a special service area tax, which pays for the project construction, Perna said.

But in 2016, when construction starts, the property tax for a homeowner with a $200,000 house will jump to $250 a year with an additional water rate of $16.56 a month, he said. In

2019, the property tax will be lowered by $30 a year.

Perna said switching to Lake Michigan water is the best option financially.

“In most cases, if we don’t go to Lake Michigan water, we have to drill more wells and create a water treatment system,” he said.

Jim Smith, village engineer for Lake Villa and primary researcher for the project, said the alternative to joining the Central Lake County Joint Action Water Agency would be creating a radium removal water treatment system, which would cost more than a million dollars to build plus operational expenses.

Bill Soucie, executive director of Central Lake County Joint Action Water Agency, said that with new technology such as shower heads that use less water, the agency can now provide water to other communities while keeping the fixed cost for local communities.

“It brings relief to our existing rate payers by keeping the rates from going up,” Soucie said.

The Central Lake Coun-

ty Joint Action Water Agency now includes Grayslake, Gurnee, Lake Bluff, Libertyville, Mundelein, Round Lake, Round Lake Beach and unincorporated parts of Lake County. Those communities will not pay any more for the project.

“We charge every [community] the same rate, so the new communities will not be charged more than our current members. Each member will have a full vote and have just as much say as our mayors [who are already in the agency],” Soucie said.

Smith explained the issues with local aquifers. The wells go down 1,000 to 1,200 feet into the sandstone, and are subject to contamination such as radium.

“It’s hard water. It has iron. We have an inadequate capacity because the community wells impact each other, and we’re pumping down the groundwater table,” Smith said.

He added that McHenry County relies on the same water table and will be using more water in the future.

WOODSTOCK: CURBING CONTAMINATION

MCCF rebate program encourages residents to seal unused water wells NORTHWEST HERALD WOODSTOCK – In partnership with the McHenry-Lake County Soil and Water Conservation District and the McHenry County Department of Health, the McHenry County Community Foundation launched a water well sealing rebate program in January to make it easier for McHenry County residents to properly seal unused or abandoned water wells.

Residents may be eligible for a rebate of up to $500 per water well if all the program requirements are met.

A water well must be properly sealed when it is no longer used for its intend-

ed purpose for more than 30 days.

Unused water wells can create a direct pathway for contaminants to reach the groundwater.

Property owners are eligible to participate in the program if the following criteria are met: • The well to be sealed must be located in McHenry County.

• The well must have been used for residential or domestic uses.

• The well must be sealed by a licensed water well installation contractor.

• The well must be sealed under a permit approved by health department per all ap-

plicable ordinance requirements.

• Receipts confirming the payment for the cost of the well sealing must be provided to the McHenry-Lake County Soil and Water Conservation District.

Applications to participate in the Water Well Sealing Rebate Program are available on the McHenry County Community Foundation website www.mccfdn.org, at the McHenry-Lake County Soil and Water Conservation District office or at the health department.

For information, contact the health department at 815334-4585 or visit www.mcdh. info.

Carson, 1st grade

Out of the pod popped a hamster and his name was Pipsqueak. I wasn’t going to let it leave so I invited it inside. I talked to the hamster. I talk hamster, so that’s how I talked to Pipsqueak. He was cold so I gave him some hot chocolate and a muffin. Pipsqueak was homeless so I asked him if he wanted to live with me and his answer was yes. So I went to the shops and got him a cage and we lived happily ever after.

Sophia, 2nd grade I was shelling peas and out of a pod popped a sunflower seed.

How it got in there I don’t know.

I guess the people who make them mixed up the seeds. In fact, I found a flower seed in every pod I opened after that.

A veteran of the U.S. Navy, he served during World War II in the western Pacific as a gunner’s mate aboard the U.S.S. Maddox. Raymond was severely injured when the Maddox was struck by an enemy Japanese kamikaze aircraft on Jan. 21, 1945. He received the World War II victory medal and was awarded a Purple Heart.

While living in Chicago, Raymond summered in McHenry for many years before moving to McHenry with his family in 1949. He and his family, including his father and brothers, founded and operated the original Bimbo’s restaurant since 1949. After flourishing as a popular restaurant in McHenry for many years, the family operation was sold in 1988, and remains in operation today as a popular McHenry destination.

CUBS 6, BREWERS 3

Ahead of own hopes, Fujikawa earns save CHICAGO – Japanese reliever Kyuji Fujikawa visited Wrigley Field on an autumn day in November, soaking in the ballpark he wished one day would be his home.

Fujikawa hoped, though didn’t expect, an opportunity to close would present itself at some point during his Cubs career. But when he signed a two-year, $9.5 million during the offseason, he never envisioned that happening in his Cubs debut at Wrigley.

“No, no,” Fujikawa said with a smile.

Next On Tuesday, in front of 30,065 Milwaukee at Cubs, 7:05 p.m. fans, Fujikawa pitched a scoretoday, CSN+, less ninth inning AM-720 in his home debut to pick up Inside his second save of the season in the Cubs’ 6-3 win The Cubs against Milwauwant more kee. night games at “It was a Wrigley Field, but their record couple times better than the in those games time I came here, hasn’t been especially with great. PAGE C4 the fans and the enthusiasm and the crowd, it was much better than the time I came here when it was empty,” Fujikawa said through a translator.

Fujikawa was determined to avoid a repeat of Saturday’s debacle in Atlanta. The Braves scored three runs off Fujikawa during the eighth, which set up Marmol’s ninth-inning implosion and subsequent demotion.

“There were times that I was [throwing] too many balls and I was thinking about the last time I got hit,” Fujikawa said. “I was trying to throw strikes and get ahead in the count.”

It was only fitting Fujikawa relieved the man he replaced for his first save chance as the Cubs’ closer. Marmol, who picked up the win, threw a scoreless eighth, his only blemish coming on Jean Segura’s two-out triple.

Raiders score 3 runs on first 4 pitches in FVC crossover

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Four pitches.

That was all it took for Huntley to seize control in Tuesday’s Fox Valley Conference crossover baseball game against Hampshire.

The Red Raiders’ three NCAA Division I recruits at the top of an order that has been a bane to opposing pitchers jumped all over Hampshire from the start. Colin Lyman was hit by the first pitch from Whip-Purs right-hander Mike Dumoulin, and Mark Skonieczny singled sharply to left field on the next pitch.

Bryce Only then homered to right field on a 1-0 pitch for a three-

run lead. Only always is willing to offer his pitcher some offensive support, and in this case, it was self-help.

Only allowed four hits in front of errorless defense and got plenty of offensive assistance as Huntley

defeated Hampshire, 10-0, in six innings. The game was supposed to be played at Hampshire, but the Whips’ field was too wet, so it was moved to Huntley. The Raiders were considered the visitors, although it played into their favor.

“It is deflating,” Hampshire coach John Sarna said of the start. “... We wanted to challenge those guys with nobody on base.”

Lyman, Skonieczny and Only scored eight of Huntley’s 10 runs.

“That [start] was outstanding,” Huntley coach Andy Jakubowski said. “That gives us a cushion to work with and Bryce was lights out from there on out. The way he changed his pitches was great. He was able to spot his fastball and got

better as the game went on.”

Only said he has not pitched since the eighth grade, but pitching coach Mike Hlavacek liked what he saw throwing inside before the season, so Only was added to the rotation.

Huntley is 9-0 overall, 3-0 in the FVC Valley Division and is averaging 11.3 runs a game.

“Colin and Mark did a good job of getting on and I was fortunate to get a pitch to drive,” Only said. “We always talk about our approach, as a team what we want to do. I was trying to hit a ball to the right side and I was fortunate enough to hit it hard.”

BLACKHAWKS 1, WILD 0

Emery makes Hossa’s goal stand up

By DAVE CAMPBELL The Associated Press

AP photo

Blackhawks goalie Ray Emery deflects a shot by the Wild’s PierreMarc Bouchard as Duncan Keith and Niklas Hjalmarsson watch in the third period Tuesday in St. Paul, Minn. The Hawks won, 1-0.

ST. PAUL, Minn. – Patrick Sharp rejoined the Blackhawks’ machine as if he never was gone.

Marian Hossa provided the welcome-back gift.

Hossa’s unassisted goal late in the second period lifted the NHL-leading Hawks to their fifth win in six games, 1-0 over the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night.

Ray Emery started for the Hawks for the third straight game and made 20 saves for his second shutout in that stretch and third of the season. He helped hand the Wild their fifth loss in seven games.

“We feel pretty good about our team,” Hossa said. “Right now, we’ve got a fifth line out

Next for the Hawks Detroit at Blackhawks, 7 p.m. Friday, CSN, AM-720

there with some great players, and they don’t get in the lineup.

I think we’re pretty strong up front. Our defense played great, and Ray’s played unreal the last three games.”

Hossa looked like a Bears defensive back jumping in front of a wide receiver’s route when he darted in front of Clayton Stoner’s seemingly harmless breakout pass toward Mikko Koivu in the Wild zone. Hossa intercepted the bouncing pass in front of the

blue line, skated up the middle and snapped a shot past goalie Niklas Backstrom’s stick with 4:46 left before the second intermission.

“Sometimes we try to use our instincts,” Hossa said, adding: “I was at the spot, the timing was right and the puck hit me basically on the tape. Even though he put a really hard pass across, I had lots to do to catch that. I tried to release it so quick.”

That was Hossa’s first goal since March 16 at Dallas. He missed six games in that scoreless stretch because of an upper body injury, but Hossa still is second on the team with 14 goals.

“I pride myself on trying to play mistake free, and that was a costly one,” Stoner said. “I feel bad for letting the team down.”

The Hawks enjoyed an even

bigger boost when Sharp returned from a 14-game absence because of a shoulder injury.

The Hawks went 4-5 over those first nine games without Sharp before getting back on track, but the league’s top-scoring team is equipped with enough exceptional skill on its forward lines that it didn’t miss much of a beat.

“I think we’ve got a pretty good thing going here right now,” Sharp said. “I was just happy to get back in the swing of things with the team. It’s a great team to be a part of. Awesome guys off the ice. They make you feel welcome right away. So it was great to be out there. I think we’re a good team, with or without me.”

RAPTORS 101, BULLS 98

DeRozan, Raptors hold off Bulls Hamilton’s surprise return to lineup not enough help

By ANDREW SELIGMAN The Associated Press CHICAGO – DeMar DeRozan scored 20 points, Rudy Gay added 19, and the Toronto Raptors beat the Bulls, 101-98, on Tuesday night.

Toronto allowed a 15-point lead to dwindle to four at halftime but regrouped in the third quarter, getting it up to 16. The Raptors then hung on after the lead got down to two near the end of the game.

Nate Robinson nailed a 3-pointer with just under a minute left and Carlos Boozer hit two foul shots with 16.8 seconds remaining to pull the Bulls within 99-97.

DeRozan then made two free throws to get the lead up to four, but the Bulls weren’t finished. Robinson hit the first of two free throws with 10.6 free throws left, and after a jump ball following the miss, there was a scramble for the loose ball.

From the floor, Boozer threw it to Robinson. The ball went through his hands and started to go into the back court. The guard saved it off Toronto’s Amir Johnson to avoid the violation but missed a heave at the buzzer.

That preserved the win for the Raptors, but an injury to center Jonas Valanciunas sure cast a cloud over it.

He walked off the court clutching his neck after colliding with Gay during that scramble and was tended to for several minutes on the sideline before being wheeled off on a gurney.

For the fifth-place Bulls, the loss left them just a half-game

Next for the Bulls New York at Bulls, 7 p.m. Thursday, TNT, AM-1000 ahead of Atlanta in the Eastern Conference with five to play.

It also damaged their chances of catching Brooklyn, a team they trailed by two when the night began, for the fourth seed and homecourt advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

Veteran guard Richard Hamilton returned to the Bulls’ rotation after missing more than a month with a back injury, but with Joakim Noah (right foot), Luol Deng (hip), Taj Gibson (sprained left knee) and Derrick Rose (left knee) sidelined, the Bulls struggled on both ends and dropped their second straight game.

Gay shook off a poor performance after matching a season low with four points in Saturday’s loss to Milwaukee.

DeRozan came up big. Terrence Ross came off the bench to score 13. Kyle Lowry added 13 points and 10 assists, and the Raptors shot over 51 percent.

Jimmy Butler led the Bulls with a career-high 28 points.

Robinson scored 22, and Boozer added 19 points and 11 rebounds.

Hamilton was a surprise addition to the rotation after coach Tom Thibodeau said at the shootaround he would not play.

NBA ROUNDUP

Knicks rout Wizards, clinch Atlantic Division The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – The New York Knicks romped to their first Atlantic Division title since 1994, getting 36 points from Carmelo Anthony and beating the Washington Wizards, 120-99, on Tuesday night for their 13th straight victory.

Anthony put this one away with 21 points during the Knicks’ 37-point third quarter that gave them a 95-71 lead.

The NBA’s scoring leader added eight rebounds and six assists while becoming the first Knick since newly elected Hall

of Famer Bernard King with five straight 35-point games.

Iman Shumpert added 18 points for the Knicks, who negated a height disadvantage by tying a franchise record with 20 3-pointers. J.R. Smith and Chris Copeland each added 17 points.

John Wall scored 33 points for the Wizards.

Heat 94, Bucks 83: At Miami, LeBron James scored 28 points, Udonis Haslem had 10 points and 15 rebounds and Miami moved a step closer to wrapping up home-court advantage in the playoffs with a

win over Milwaukee.

The Heat tied a franchise single-season record by winning for the 61st time, getting there with five games remaining. Miami needs only one more win or one San Antonio loss to clinch the top overall seed for the entirety of the playoffs.

Pacers 99, Cavaliers 94: At Indianapolis, George Hill scored 27 points and David West added 15 to help Indiana rally from a 20-point deficit for a win over Cleveland.

NHL ROUNDUP

Islanders stay hot, knock off Flyers The ASSOCIATED PRESS UNIONDALE, N.Y. – Michael Grabner scored the goahead goal late in the second period and Evgeni Nabokov made 26 saves as the New York Islanders took another step toward the playoffs with a 4-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night.

The Islanders won for the seventh time in nine games and moved two points ahead of the idle Rangers into seventh place in the Eastern Conference.

Philadelphia (17-19-3) is 12th in the East, five points behind the Rangers and the postseason cutoff.

Penguins 5, Hurricanes 3: At

Raleigh, N.C., Beau Bennett and Evgeni Malkin scored 13 seconds apart in the third period, and Pittsburgh clinched the Atlantic Division title by beating free-falling Carolina.

Blue Jackets 4, Sharks 0: At Columbus, Ohio, Sergei Bobrovsky earned his fourth NHL shutout – all in his last 15 games – and newcomer Marian Gaborik had a goal and an assist, leading Columbus over San Jose.

Capital 3, Canadiens 2: At Montreal, Alex Ovechkin scored his 26th goal and Jack Hillen netted his first as Washington stretched its winning run to five games by beating Montreal.

Lightning 3, Senators 2: At Tampa, Fla., Steven Stamkos

scored his 26th goal of the season in the third period, and Tampa Bay beat Ottawa.

Jets 4, Sabres 1: At Winnipeg, Manitoba, Aaron Gagnon scored his first NHL goal to help Winnipeg top Buffalo.

Gagnon was playing in just his third game since he was called up from the AHL. Blues 1, Predators 0: At Nashville, Tenn., Brian Elliott made 15 saves, and Alex Steen snapped a six-game goal drought to lead St. Louis over Nashville.

Stars 5, Kings 1: At Dallas, Ray Whitney and Vernon Fiddler both scored twice during Dallas’ four-goal third period, and the Stars broke open a tie game and routed Los Angeles.

Hawk close to wrapping up No. 1 seed • HAWKS Continued from page C1 The first team in the NHL this season to clinch a spot in the playoffs, the Hawks outshot the Wild 31-20 to move one step closer to securing the top seed in the Western Conference playoffs. They are five points ahead of second-place Anaheim and have a game in hand over the Ducks. The Hawks (30-5-4)

are 16-2-2 on the road, by far the best mark in the league.

Hawks coach Joel Quenneville gave Emery the start again over Corey Crawford. He said Crawford is 100 percent healthy. The way his team has been playing, though, picking the wrong goalie would be hard to do.

“I think there’s a lot of confidence, and we’re excited for whoever is in net,” said star Patrick Kane. “I think right

now we’re pretty confident in our team. Just try to keep getting better.”

The Wild (22-15-2) put themselves in prime position for a spot in the postseason for the first time in five years by going a franchise-best 11-4 in March, but they are far from safe with just a five-point edge over ninth-place Dallas and Columbus. Six of the Wild’s final nine games are against teams currently below the playoff cut.

JACOBS 5, CL CENTRAL 5, SUSP., DARKNESS

Eagles, Tigers can’t finish before nightfall FVC crossover goes 9 innings; no winner yet

By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – In a baseball game that had two lead changes, two ties and a few clutch hits, neither team, Jacobs nor Crystal Lake Central, could pull ahead for good.

Tuesday’s Fox Valley Conference crossover game was

suspended because of darkness with the teams tied, 5-5, after nine innings of back-andforth baseball.

“When we were down 3-0, I knew that we needed to find a way to manufacture some runs,” Central coach Dan Badgley said. “We weren’t hitting real well at that point and we tried to build a little momentum with some steals and bunts.”

Central (3-3 overall, 0-2 FVC Fox) fought its way back throughout the game from an early hole as the Golden Eagles scored three runs in the top of the first inning. It wasn’t

Online Watch highlights of the Jacobs at Crystal Lake Central baseball game at McHenryCounty Sports.com. until the Tigers scored a run in the fifth that they got on the board. In the sixth, they scored two to tie it, 3-3.

“I was telling the guys that we need to keep pushing and pushing,” Jacobs coach Jamie Murray said. “We need to do a better job of taking advantage of some situations.”

The Golden Eagles (8-1, 1-0

FVC Valley) didn’t add to their three runs until the eighth inning, and it was then when it seemed as if Jacobs third baseman Jon Berndt would be the game’s hero after doubling in the go-ahead runs for a 5-3 lead.

But Central catcher Colin Telmanik had a big game, going 3 for 4, including his biggest hit, a no-out two-run double that tied the score in the bottom of the eighth.

“I was just looking to put the ball in play to the right side,” Telmanik said. “We had two guys on and I got a good pitch and it worked out.

I gapped it and I knew those guys would score.”

The Tigers then tried a bases-loaded squeeze bunt, but the batter missed on a high pitch and the runner was tagged out with nowhere to go. A flyout ended the inning.

“That’s been the biggest problem with our team so far,” Telmanik said of playing from behind. “We showed a lot of character tonight and we got it going, especially when we were down 5-3.”

Badgley was also impressed with his team’s resolve after giving up two runs in the eighth.

BOYS ROUNDUP

Gators’ Hall wins, starts 3-0

KAILASH PANCHAPAKESAN Jacobs, fr.

Panchapakesan has won his first seven matches at No. 1 singles to start the season and his high school career. He got the only win for the Golden Eagles against Fremd and went 4-0 at the Triad Tournament on Saturday with wins against Carbondale, O’Fallon, Belleville East and Belleville West.

NORTHWEST HERALD Tyler Hall improved to 3-0 for the Crystal Lake South baseball team in its 11-1 Fox Valley Conference crossover win over Woodstock North in five innings.

Hall gave up no hits over three innings for the Gators (6-0 overall, 3-0 FVC Valley) and struck out five.

Tom Gaede, Casey Oliver and Ryan Wilkening each drove in two runs for South.

Julian Zack and Carter Vepley each went 1 for 2 for the Thunder (1-3, 0-3 FVC Fox).

Noteworthy Road trips: Jacobs got a look at some downstate teams at the Triad Tournament, near St. Louis, on Saturday. The Golden Eagles took fourth with wins against Carbondale and O’Fallon.

In the semifinals, Jacobs lost, 4-1, to Belleville East and then, 3-2, to Belleville West in the third-place match.

Also at Triad, Hampshire’s Dylan Keeling and Joe Vietinghoff went 4-0 at No. 2 doubles.

Keeling and Vietinghoff also picked up the only win against Jacobs in a dual Thursday.

Also Saturday, Prairie Ridge lost, 3-2, to Batavia at the Downers Grove North Invitational. The Wolves got wins from Jack Lamar and Danny Van Bosch at No. 2 doubles and Imraan Alas and Matt Altman at No. 3 doubles.

FVC update: With a 3-0 record this season in the Fox Valley Conference, Grayslake Central appears to be the team to beat.

The Rams defeated Woodstock North, 7-0, Crystal Lake Central, 6-1, and Grayslake North, 6-1.

This week’s top meet Prairie Ridge at Jacobs 4 p.m. today With the projected top two teams in the FVC, this could be the match that decides the Valley Division.

“You get those momentum swings in high school sports, and for the kids to come back and score two runs like that was very big,” he said. “I’m real happy with these guys today.”

The game will be completed at a date not yet decided. It will still be a home game for the Tigers, and the game will restart where it left off. FVC crossover games count in the standings.

“We can go to 100 innings,” Badgley said with a laugh.

“It’s a conference game, so we have to finish it. We’ll play a JV game afterwards to make it worth the trip for Jacobs.”

Huntley’s Bryce Only watches his three-run homer sail over the right field fence in the first inning Tuesday. Huntley shut out Hampshire, 10-0.

Red Raiders pitcher Only finishes strong • HUNTLEY Continued from page C1 Only escaped trouble in the third inning when the Whips (3-3, 0-2 FVC Fox) loaded the bases for No. 5 hitter Tyler Crater. With a full count, Only was able to strike Crater out on a changeup. He retired 10 of the last 11 hitters he faced and struck out the side in the sixth.

“Coach [Hlavacek] called that pitch [to Crater], I just trusted that if [Crater] hit it, they’re going to make the play,” Only said. “I just try to let my defense work for me. They’re phenomenal.”

Jakubowski said it was the fifth game the Raiders played without committing an error. Lyman ran down R.J. Cosigny’s ball in left-center field on a diving catch in the first inning, possibly saving a run.

Huntley’s Nos. 2-6 hitters – Skonieczny, Only, Tyler Albright, Matt Sullivan and Tommy Kirkiakopoulos – got 12 of the Raiders’ 13 hits.

“Our approach as a team is staying up the middle, the other way, and we’re seeing the ball deep,” Skonieczny said.

Jansen’s long goal lifts Johnsburg over Prairie Ridge NORTHWEST HERALD With scoring opportunities at a premium, Olivia Jansen’s 35-yard blast with two minutes to play looked like a long shot.

The senior’s game-winner came on a pass from sophomore Delaney Pruitt, who tied the score in the second half on an assist from Jansen.

Despite the second-half heroics, Eastland credited senior goalkeeper Kadie Calmeyer’s 10-save outing for keeping Johnsburg (3-0) undefeated.

By HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press WASHINGTON – White Sox second baseman Gordon Beckham’s injured left wrist was hurting him even while he simply stood still in the clubhouse Tuesday night.

It’s not clear how long he might be out of the lineup.

Beckham left in the third inning of what turned out to be an 8-7 loss to the Washington Nationals, who got homers from Adam LaRoche, Jayson Werth and Ian Desmond off Sox starter Jake Peavy.

After the game, Sox manager Robin Ventura said he expected to have Jeff Keppinger move over from third base to fill in at second for Beckham today, while using Conor Gillaspie at third.

“It’s going to take a couple of days,” Beckham said. “It hurts now just standing here.”

While he was batting in the second inning, he fouled off a pitch – “and knew something was wrong,” Beckham said.

“I stepped out just to take a (practice) swing, kind of realized it wasn’t going to be a good swing,” he added.

Next for the Sox Sox at Washington, 6:05 p.m. today, CSN, AM-670

He struck out, played the bottom half of the second in the field, then departed in the third. Angel Sanchez replaced him.

“I’ve been icing it the last four hours,” Beckham said later.

He said X-rays showed “no structural damage; there’s no break, there’s no nothing.

Just some pain, obviously or I wouldn’t have come out of the game.”

For the Nationals, LaRoche ended a 0-for-15 start to the season by going deep in consecutive at-bats. Washington has 10 homers in its past three games.

“We’ve got a really balanced lineup. That’s something that we have that most teams don’t. It’s tough on matchups. It’s tough on pitchers, really,” Werth said.

“There’s not really an easy spot in our lineup.”

He and LaRoche each hit a two-run shot off Peavy (1-1) in the sixth, an inning after Desmond went deep.

LaRoche added a solo homer in the eighth off Matt Thornton, the Sox’s fifth pitcher. LaRoche had missed the previous two games with a back muscle problem.

“You get into the second week of the season,” LaRoche said, “that’s never a good feeling to look up there and not have a hit.”

Said Nationals manager Davey Johnson: “I wasn’t worried about him.”

Werth also tacked on an RBI single off Matt Lindstrom for an unearned insurance run in the seventh, part of a stretch in which the Nationals scored in each of their last five innings. That allowed Washington to hold on even though Alex Rios took closer Rafael Soriano deep for a two-run shot with two outs in the ninth. Soriano got Paul Konerko – who homered earlier – to fly out to end it and record his third save in four chances.

MLB NOTES

Angels’ Weaver expected to be out at least 4 weeks with elbow fracture The ASSOCIATED PRESS ANAHEIM, Calif. – The Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday placed pitcher Jered Weaver on the 15-day disabled list with a fractured left elbow.

The right-hander, who was diagnosed with a nondisplaced radial head fracture, is expected to miss at least four weeks.

Weaver left Sunday’s loss against the Texas Rangers early after jamming his nonthrowing arm while dodging a line drive.

MLB to establish training program in Puerto Rico: At San Juan, Puerto Rico, Major League Baseball will launch a training program in Puerto Rico aimed at talented teenagers who cannot afford specialized academies, an effort to spark player development in the U.S. territory.

Officials will hold tryouts this month in the capital of San Juan and select 50 players ages 14 to 18 to participate in an intensive after-school

program, MLB senior vice president for baseball operations Kim Ng said Tuesday.

Motte not cleared to throw, might need surgery: At St. Louis, Cardinals closer Jason Motte faces reconstructive elbow surgery if his condition does not improve in the next three weeks or so.

It would be another huge blow to a team that has already lost pitcher Chris Carpenter and shortstop Rafael Furcal for the season. The Cardinals pretty much stood pat after losing to the San Francisco Giants in the NL Championship Series last fall.

Motte, who had a career-high 42 saves last season, has been shut down since late March because of a strained right elbow. He was not cleared to throw after an MRI exam Tuesday didn’t show sufficient improvement.

Yankees’ Jeter runs for first time since setback: At Cleveland, Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter not only took a few steps in his recovery, he made them running.

Jeter, who suffered a setback in his return from an ankle injury, ran on a field for the first time in several weeks Tuesday and New York manager Joe Girardi said the 38-year-old superstar is making some solid progress.

“He looked as good as at any point that I had seen him in spring training,” said Girardi, who has been watching videotapes of Jeter’s workouts in Tampa, Fla.

Angels’ Aybar leaves with bruised heel: At Anaheim, Calif., Angels shortstop Erick Aybar left Los Angeles’ game against Oakland in the third inning with a bruised left heel.

Aybar, a Gold Glove winner in 2011, got hurt while stretching to reach first base on an infield single Tuesday night in the team’s home opener.

Aybar jammed his left foot into the base while running out his leadoff single. He briefly stayed in the game before calling out the training staff and jogging off the field.

CHICAGO – It’s no secret Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts has been negotiating for more night games at Wrigley Field.

A city ordinance limits the Cubs to 30 night games a season, leaving plenty of day games on the home schedule. President of baseball operations Theo Epstein said Monday adding night games would increase the Cubs’ revenue and help with a future TV deal.

However, lately, the Cubs haven’t thrived in night games at Wrigley. Although they entered Tuesday’s game .500 (254-254) in night games since their first at Wrigley in 1988, the Cubs went 10-20 last year under the lights. They haven’t posted a winning record in home night games since 2008 (20-8).

“The travel is such a big deal, especially leaving or coming to [Chicago] and playing that day game,” infielder Brent Lillibridge said. “Even [Sunday] we got here decently early, but we’ve got a quick turnaround to get right back out there.

“We have the home field, so we should be able to dictate parts of the schedule, so we

can feel rested and ready to go the next day because it’s a long season.”

The day games could be an advantage for the Cubs, since major league teams aren’t used to playing day games on the first day of a road trip.

Despite losing 101 games last year the Cubs went 38-42 at Wrigley last season, including a 28-22 record in day games.

Garza’s spring starting: Matt Garza’s lat strain sidelined the right hander for most of spring training, but the Cubs are hopeful his return is in sight.

After throwing on flat ground and throwing long tosses before Tuesday’s game, manager Dale Sveum said Garza’s version of spring training is beginning now.

Garza originally suffered the injury nearly two months ago in Mesa, Ariz., during the Cubs’ first full-squad workout.

Where Garza will go for his rehab assignments is up in the air because of the weather, but when he does, building arm strength is a top priority.

Garza hoped to be back with the Cubs by May 1, however, Sveum said four weeks from now – which would be the second week in May – is more realistic, barring no setbacks.

Fujikawa unfazed by 35-degree wind chill Inside the Cubs

CUBS 6, BREWERS 3

While his solid outing gave Marmol much needed confidence, he isn’t worrying about when, or if, he will again be the Cubs’ go-to man in the ninth. “[Fujikawa] threw the ball very well today, and I’m glad he threw well,” Marmol said.

“Whatever the manager says I’ll do it, no matter if it’s in the first inning or last.”

By the time Fujikawa took the mound, the temperature dropped to 42 degrees with a wind chill of 35 degrees, and though the right-hander had pitched in frigid weather before, he was forced to abandon his off-speed pitches. Of the 22 pitches he threw, only two were not four-seam fastballs.

Those two pitches, both change-ups, were balls.

“I had pitched in cold weather like this and I think it was good that I was able to get the results today,” Fujikawa said. “But I just have to focus on tomorrow.”

Fujikawa struck out two in the inning and even mistake pitches baffled the Brewers.

Despite catcher Welington Castillo calling for a fastball high out of the strike zone, he delivered a 92 mph fastball down the middle of the plate that froze Brewers pinch hitter Logan Schafer for strike three looking.

That set the tone for the rest of the inning, landing 13 pitches for strikes. Even an error by third baseman Luis Valbuena didn’t rattle him.

He struck out the next batter, Rickie Weeks, and after a Ryan Braun single he got Jonathan Lucroy to pop out to end the game.

Fujikawa proved he’s capable of getting the job done in spite of high expectations, from fans and himself, the weather and the situation.

While the opportunities may be few and far between given the Cubs’ offensive futility, manager Dale Sveum finally has a reliable closer.

“He threw strikes when he had to,” Sveum said. “Obviously, today he threw a lot

Tipping point: Anthony Rizzo, up against Brewers left-hander Mike Gonzalez, doubled down the right-field line driving in the game-tying run with two outs in the seventh. The Cubs broke through in the eighth on Scott Hairston’s go-ahead sacrifice fly to center field and David DeJesus’ two-run double. Kyuji Fujikawa picked up his second save in his Wrigley Field debut as the Cubs snapped a four-game losing streak.

On the mound: Left-hander Travis Wood found trouble in the first two innings. Eight of the first 13 batters he faced reached base and shoddy defense contributed to the three runs (two earned) he allowed in the second. But he settled down, giving up one hit in his final 41/3 innings pitched.

At the plate: The Cubs scored a season-high six runs led by Rizzo who went 1 for 2 with two walks, a double and two RBIs. DeJesus accounted for one-third of the Cubs’ hits, finishing 3 for 5 with two runs and 2 RBIs. The Cubs displayed patience at the plate, drawing four walks compared to five strikeouts though they left eight runners on base.

Under the radar: Wood hasn’t received much help at home. He is winless in his last 10 starts at Wrigley, posting a 0-5 record with a 4.99 ERA dating to July 17, 2012.

The offense has been anemic with Wood on the mound, scoring two runs or less in seven of his starts. more four seamers and really didn’t throw a whole lot of off-speed pitches or cutters at all. He came right at him with four seamers most of the time.”

Tiger of old back for Masters?

AUGUSTA, Ga. – He’s got a swing he finally can trust, a putter that shows flashes of the old magic, and a string of wins to prove all finally is coming together.

The superstar girlfriend is an added bonus, although by now so much time has passed that the debate about Tiger Woods revolves around the state of his game, not his personal life.

Winning may not take care of everything, as his latest Nike ad claims. But six wins in his comeback are a confidence-inducing tonic for Woods, and the commercial certainly is more upbeat than the one Nike ran two years ago with his late father ominously asking him what he could have been thinking.

Woods is more upbeat, too, and with good reason. When last seen here a year ago he was kicking clubs, missing putts and muttering to himself about chances gone awry. He didn’t break par in four rounds, and left with barely enough prize money to fuel up his private jet.

Now he’s a heavy favorite to win his fifth Masters and kick start his pursuit of Jack Nicklaus in the majors. The swagger that always has suited him so well seems to be back, and the way he was talking Tuesday this might not be a good year to bet against him.

“I feel comfortable with every aspect of my game,” Woods said.

Woods could have been talking about his life, too. More than once during his pre-Masters news conference he did, especially when speaking of the joys of fatherhood and how he can teach his children the basics of golf in the backyard short game complex at his South Florida mansion.

Lindsey Vonn wasn’t mentioned at all, but she has to figure in all this newfound bliss, too. Just a few weeks ago, Woods and the Olympic skiing champion announced they were in a relationship in a series of photos both posted on social media sites.

And while Woods normally is taciturn to a fault in interviews, he laughed, had a few funny lines, and

That’s partly his own fault, because he has focused almost singularly on them ever since he was growing up in Southern California with a chart of Nicklaus major championship wins on his wall.

“It took Jack a while to get to 18, all the way until he was 46 years old,” Woods said. “So there’s plenty of opportunities for me.”

The first of those opportunities begins Thursday morning on a course he both knows and loves.

Woods is a player who tends to win in bunches on certain courses and, aside from last year’s lackluster performance, Augusta National usually brings out the best in him.

His winning drought in majors has been long, but not terribly surprising considering he had to rebuild a knee, a swing and a personal life after winning the U.S. Open on one leg at Torrey Pines.

Woods cautioned repeatedly that at least the knee and swing were a work in progress, but golf at this level also requires a clear head and the kind of focus that made Woods so fearsome in his younger days.

The Masters is always huge because of what it represents and because it is the first major of the year. For Woods, though, the stakes are even higher this year, if only because he needs to demonstrate to himself that he still can win at the highest level.

The man he’s chasing understands that better than anyone.

“It’s been a while,” Nicklaus said. “He’s going to have to figure it out. But I think if he figures it out here, it will be a great boost for him. If he doesn’t figure it out here, after the spring he’s had, I think it will be a lot tougher for him.”

For now, Nicklaus is the greatest golfer ever, and until Woods catches him the title is still his.

This week could say a lot about how long or fruitful that chase will be.

VIEWS Tim Dahlberg was more introspective than usual Tuesday in the media center.

“I think it’s just a balance, a balance in life,” Woods said. “I think that’s what you’re seeing.”

Whether it all translates into another green jacket is anyone’s guess. Golf is a funny game even for Tiger Woods, and the tricky greens of Augusta National have derailed his high hopes before.

He won four Masters in a nine-year stretch after breaking through with his historic win in 1997, but he hasn’t celebrated here since 2005.

This is a Masters he badly – almost desperately – needs, and not just to completely validate his comeback from injuries and marriage scandal.

The clock is ticking on his chase of the Nicklaus record of 18 major championships – Woods has 14 – and the player who once held all four major titles at once now has gone almost five years without winning even one.

He’s 37 now, not an advanced age by any stretch for a golfer.

But Woods has been playing the Masters for half his life – this will be his 19th time competing – and as each year goes by another opportunity slips away.

There’s a 14-year-old from China who wasn’t even born when Woods won in 1997 in the field this week and if Woods had to be reminded about time passing by, he was by a question about what age he would entertain becoming a ceremonial starter in the Masters like Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer.

“Let me just try to get to 40 first,” he said.

Woods is still the No. 1 player in the world – taking over from Rory McIlroy after winning at Bay Hill this year – but his drought at the majors is more often the subject of conversation than the fact he has rebuilt his game and is winning again.

ILLINOIS SPRING GAME: 8 P.M. FRIDAY, BTN

Beckman hopes to build momentum

By DAVID MERCER The Associated Press

Connecticut players celebrate as they carry coach Geno Auriemma off the court after defeating Louisville, 93-60, in the national championship game Tuesday in New Orleans.

NCAA TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONSHIP GAME: CONNECTICUT 93, LOUISVILLE 60

UConn cruises to 8th title Margin of victory is biggest in final

By DOUG FEINBERG The Associated Press NEW ORLEANS – Geno Auriemma and Connecticut are back on top. With freshman Breanna Stewart leading the way, it might be a while before they relinquish that spot.

Stewart scored 18 of her 23 points in a dazzling first half, and Connecticut won its eighth national championship with a 93-60 rout of Louisville on Tuesday night. It was the most lopsided victory in a title game.

The title tied Auriemma and the Huskies (35-4) with Pat Summitt and

Tennessee for the most in women’s basketball history.

“The fact that I tied Pat Summitt’s record puts you in the category of the greatest women’s basketball coach that ever lived,” Auriemma said. “I’m just thrilled for our seniors. This team accomplished an amazing feat this last month.”

It might not take long for Auriemma to pass Summitt the way Stewart and the rest of his Huskies played.

His prized freshman was unstoppable, hitting shots from everywhere on the court to earn Most Outstanding Player honors for the Final Four. Even her father in the stands watching repeatedly said “wow” as his daughter took the game over.

“This is unbelievable,” she said.

“This is what we’ve thought about since the beginning of the season. And now to

be here and actually win it, it’s a great feeling and I don’t think it’s going to set in for a while. I just played really confident and stopped thinking. When I second-guess myself, nothing good comes out of that.”

The loss ended an unprecedented tournament run by Louisville. The Cardinals became the first No. 5 seed to make the championship game, pulling off the greatest upset in tournament history when they beat Brittney Griner and Baylor in the regional semifinals.

Jeff Walz’s team then beat Tennessee in the regional final before topping Cal in the Final Four.

The Cardinals just didn’t have enough to beat their Big East foe. Louisville was trying to become just the second school to win both the men’s and women’s championship in the same season and the first since UConn in 2004.

CHAMPAIGN – As they get ready to wrap up spring football, Illinois players are wearing wrist bands bearing the acronym WIN – Whatever Is Needed.

“It’s a philosophy of this football team,” coach Tim Beckman told reporters Tuesday as he talked about Friday night’s spring game.

The list of what’s needed could be a long one for Beckman and the Illini.

The Illini finished last season 2-10 (0-8 in the Big Ten), closing with nine straight losses. They scored 12 points a game over that run and gave up 37.

The team has lost much of the best of its defense from last season – NFL prospects such as defensive end Michael Buchanan, defensive back Terry Hawthorne and defensive tackle Akeem Spence.

If the team had to play a game, almost half the first-team defense would be in its first season at Illinois, Beckman said.

“Last year at this time they were getting ready for baseball season and prom, as I like to say,” he said.

And the offense is starting over under new coordinator Bill Cubit, who inherited a relatively thin and inexperienced group of receivers. But Beckman said he’s already seen evidence the team has achieved one of his big goals for the spring.

“First was to become a mentally tougher football team, and to play four quarters of football,” he said. “I’ve seen that happen.”

The defense, Beckman said, will be without one likely starter on Friday, linebacker Jonathan Brown. Brown is a leader of the defense and an anchor along with Mason Monheim of

Illinois coach Tim Beckman hopes to improve on last season’s 2-10 team. The Illini’s spring game is Friday night in Champaign. a linebacker corps that could be one of the team’s few real strengths going into next fall.

Brown hasn’t practiced this spring after spending a lot of last fall banged up.

Senior receiver Steve Hull, who has moved from safety back to the position where he started his college career, also will miss the game with a hamstring injury.

Spring games in football-crazy college towns, of course, can draw tens of thousands of fans who might just as soon skip summer and head straight into fall.

Illinois isn’t quite that, but Beckman, like any coach, hopes to use Friday’s game to start building some momentum around his struggling program.

A half dozen former Illini players such as recent defensive back Tavon Wilson and John Wright Sr., a receiver from the 1960s, will serve as honorary coaches for the game.

A year ago in Beckman’s first appearance on the Illinois sideline, the game drew a couple thousand fans on a drizzly Saturday afternoon when the temperature was close to 60 degrees.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL NOTES

Oladipo, others to leave for NBA The ASSOCIATED PRESS BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana’s Victor Oladipo made it official Tuesday: He’s headed to the NBA. The junior, first-team All-American announced his decision during a news conference inside Assembly Victor Oladipo Hall.

Oladipo, who is on track to graduate in May, was the Hoosiers’ second-leading scorer, averaging 13.6 points and 6.3 rebounds a game.

Oladipo is projected as a top-six choice.

Indiana’s sophomore center, Cody Zeller, is expected to decide whether he will leave for the NBA as early as today.

Oladipo was one of several underclassmen who wasted little time in declaring for the

NBA draft Tuesday, the day after the college season ended.

Ben McLemore, Kansas’ talented freshman guard, was among Rickey Ledo practiced with Providence this season but never played because he failed to qualify academically. Practice was enough, apparently, to make him a possible firstround pick.

New Mexico’s Tony Snell also announced he was going pro.

The father of Louisville guard Russ Smith, who helped the Cardinals win a national title by beating Michigan on Monday night, said his son will enter the draft.

Morris, 3 others to transfer from DePaul: At Chicago, DePaul granted forward Moses Morgan and three other players permission to transfer.

The school said Tuesday forward Montray Clemons, guard Jodan Price and center Derrell Robertson Jr. also

5211 Swanson Road (SW Corner of Rt. 47 & 176) Woodstock, IL (815) 337-2509 www.gardensofwoodstock.com

Ex-Robert Morris player accuses Rice: At Moon Township, Pa., a Robert Morris internal investigation into former basketball coach Mike Rice found no evidence of the “coaches against player” brawls alleged by an ex-Rutgers employee, though one former Colonial contacted by the school claims Rice used anti-gay slurs on several occasions and engaged in a shoving match with a player during halftime of a game.

Rice coached at the suburban Pittsburgh school from 2007-10 before taking the job at Rutgers, who fired Rice last week after video of the coach physically and emotionally abusing players became public.

Parsley Washington Post

Giving up the garnish T

here are two kinds of cooks in this country, the reductionist in me argues: the parsley pushers and the parsley-ambivalent.

I was led to that generalization through an exchange I had with a friend last year, one of many in which he called asking for cooking advice.

On this particular occasion, I don’t recall what he was preparing or what the dilemma of the moment was, but I do remember asking whether he had parsley in the house, thinking I was onto an easy solution.

His response: “I don’t really buy parsley. I mean, what’s the point?”

Some distraction or other pulled me away from the phone, or I would have pleaded for his reconsideration on the spot. Instead I said, “I have to go, but we’re talking about this later.”

Well-intentioned food writers have been trying for decades to rescue parsley from the American cook’s indifference. One of the earliest attempts was in 1952,

Parsley deserves starring role

By EMILY HORTON ¬ The Washington Post when The New York Times printed a piece championing parsley’s unsung virtues with the headline, “May Opens Season of Parsley Abundance – Herb Has Many Uses Besides as Garnish.”

Despite the media cheerleading, the message doesn’t seem to stick. Or perhaps our shifting appreciation for it is, like parsley itself, too low-key. Elsewhere in the world, parsley is in no need of marketing. It is not just appreciated but ubiquitous in the Middle East, perhaps best illustrated by tabbouleh;

in its traditional Lebanese form the parsley, not the cracked wheat, forms the backbone of the salad.

In France, parsley starts dishes and finishes them; it is an essential component of the aromatic foundation that is a bouquet garni, and it defines persillade, the mixture of finely minced garlic and parsley that’s used to add a bloom of flavor at the end of cooking.

With garlic and lemon it is gremolata, Italy’s answer to persillade.

Add onion, capers, anchovies and olive oil, and it is salsa verde, an Italian condiment so versatile and compelling, it would do any cook good to stock a batch in the refrigerator at all times.

So integral is parsley to Italian cooking, where it is used not just to finish sauces, soups and stews but also to help build them, that sprigs of it are sometimes tucked into market shoppers’ baskets along with their purchase – a well-wish for the kitchen if there ever was one.

Pesto. Replace the basil in your favorite pesto recipe with the same amount of parsley for basil, and use walnuts instead of pine nuts.

Gremolata. Combine 3 tablespoons minced parsley, 1 teaspoon lemon zest and 1 or 2 minced cloves of garlic. Scatter over justroasted potatoes, steamed sugar snap peas, roasted beets or meats off the grill or out of the roasting pan.

Sandwich filling. Add whole leaves in place of greens, or layer open-faced with radishes or cucumbers and ricotta or cream cheese.

Parsley pairs with pasta, sandwiches, salads S

pring is the perfect time to make this dish; it’s when locally grown celery shows up at farmers markets. Regardless of the season, use the freshest celery you can find, and don’t be shy about adding lots of parsley to finish.

Pasta With Chickpeas, Celery and Parsley

Pasta With Chickpeas, Celery and Parsley 4 servings 1 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more for the cooking water 1 1/2 cups celery pieces, cut on the diagonal 1/4-inch wide (first cut vertically if the ribs are especially wide) 8 ounces dried pasta, preferably penne or another short, tubular shape 1/4 cup plus 4 teaspoons extravirgin olive oil 1 or 2 cloves garlic, crushed, then chopped 2 dried arbol chili peppers, seeded and broken into small pieces 1 1/2 cups cooked or canned nosalt-added chickpeas (if using canned, drain and rinse) 1/4 cup packed, coarsely chopped parsley Freshly ground black pepper Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add a generous pinch of salt, then add the celery; cook/blanch for 1 or 2 minutes.

Use a slotted spoon or Chinese skimmer to transfer the celery to a colander, and rinse with cool water to stop the cooking. Drain.

Once the water in the pot returns to a boil, add the pasta and cook according to the package directions.

When the pasta is about 5 minutes from being al dente, heat 1/4

T

hese fillings are especially nice on a baguette, but toasted or grilled bread works well. Alternatively, you can omit the bread altogether and serve the omelets folded over or rolled up around dollops of ricotta, with the parsley salad spooned over the top.

The recipe doubles easily.

cup of the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the garlic (to taste) and dried arbol peppers; cook, stirring every minute or so, until the garlic is almost golden and the peppers are starting to brown. Stir in the blanched celery

and cook for 2 to 3 minutes; it should be tender yet retain a little resistance. Stir in the chickpeas, season with the 1 teaspoon of salt and with black pepper to taste, and warm through.

Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup

of its cooking water. Add the pasta, the parsley and a few tablespoons of the cooking water to the pan, stirring to incorporate the ingredients and dislodge any bits of garlic or peppers stuck to the bottom of the pan. If the mixture seems dry,

add more of the reserved cooking water.

Ladle the mixture into individual wide, shallow bowls. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of the remaining oil over each portion. Serve right away, offering grinds of black pepper at

the table.

Parsley and Butter Lettuce With Grapefruit-Shallot Dressing

Parsley, Olive, Egg and Ricotta Sandwiches

Parsley, Olive, Egg and Ricotta Sandwiches 2 servings For the eggs and sandwiches: 4 large eggs 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt 1/4 cup packed, finely chopped flat-leaf parsley 4 slices bread from a crusty, country-style loaf (may substitute half of a baguette, halved crosswise, then lengthwise, for a total of 4 pieces) 2 teaspoons olive oil, plus more for brushing the bread 1/4 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese For the salad: 1/4 cup packed, sliced flat-leaf parsley leaves 1/4 cup pitted, chopped green olives, such as Castelvetrano, Lucques, Picholine or other green olives, alone or in combination 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice 1 teaspoon olive oil Freshly ground black pepper (optional) For the eggs and sandwiches: Crack 2 eggs each into two bowls,

and use a fork to beat well. Divide the salt and parsley evenly between the bowls.

Brush each side of the sliced bread with a little oil; toast until just barely golden.

Meanwhile, heat an 8-inch skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of the oil and swirl to coat the surface.

Once the oil is hot, pour in half of the egg-parsley mixture (one bowl’s worth), which should begin to bubble immediately. Tilt the skillet as needed so the eggs cook in an even, thin layer; use a spatula to gently lift the outer edges of the egg so any uncooked parts can flow underneath. Once the egg has set, use a wide spatula to gently flip them over. Cook for just a few seconds, until set on the second side.

(Alternatively, eggs cooked in a heatproof skillet can be slipped under a broiler for a few seconds to set.)

Transfer to a plate; repeat with the remaining teaspoon of oil and the remaining egg mixture.

For the salad: Just before assembling the sandwiches, combine the sliced parsley with the olives, squeeze over 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, drizzle with the oil and toss to combine.

Cut the egg into pieces or strips that will approximately cover the bread slices in two layers. Spread the ricotta on the bottom piece of bread for each sandwich and top equally with the egg pieces or strips. Spoon the parsley-olive salad equally over each portion of the egg. Sprinkle a few grinds of black pepper over the salad, if desired, then top each sandwich with its remaining slice of bread.

utter lettuces are a great match for this tart dressing, but anything in the chicory family – escarole, curly endive, frisee – also would pair well.

If you prefer, fresh lemon juice can be substituted for the grapefruit.

Parsley and Butter Lettuce With GrapefruitShallot Dressing 6 servings Leaves from 1 pound bibb or butterhead lettuce (may substitute other tender lettuce) 1/2 cup packed flat-leaf parsley leaves

2 tablespoons minced shallot 2 tablespoons fresh grapefruit juice 1/2 teaspoon fine or flaked sea salt, or more as needed 3 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 4 ounces aged sheep’s- or goat’s-milk cheese, such as manchego or garrotxa (optional) Rinse the lettuce and parsley in a large bowl of cold water. Drain, dry and place in a mixing bowl.

Combine the shallot, grapefruit juice and salt in a small bowl; let stand for 10 to 15 minutes. Whisk

in the oil; season with pepper to taste.

Pour the dressing over the lettuce and parsley. Use your hands to gently toss the salad, making sure the greens are evenly coated. Taste a leaf for salt and pepper, and adjust the seasoning as needed.

Parsley works as unifier, bringing balance when added to assertive ingredients • PARSLEY Continued from page D1 Chefs, students of nouvelle cuisine, persisted in creating a garnish out of the frilly leaf, turning it fussy and useless.

Cookbooks of that period called increasingly for dried parsley, a tasteless product best kept far away from food.

Contemporary cookbooks, particularly those with leanings toward Europe and the Mediterranean, foster a broader view. But their message competes with a more ingrained attitude: Parsley is pretty, not to be taken seriously. Which is curious, because parsley is a workhorse.

Used as a primary seasoning, parsley can carry a dish;

its piney, faintly bitter flavor assumes brighter, rounder tones. Paired with more assertive ingredients, it makes a great unifier, assuring balance and nudging harmony forward. Parsley works more conspicuously to allow the whole to make a greater impression. You can’t say any of that about sage, thyme, marjoram, tarragon, certainly not rosemary, and not even meek, lovely chervil.

In Tamar Adler’s “An Everlasting Meal: Cooking With Economy and Grace,” the author urges readers to buy parsley whenever possible because, she notes, “everything needs parsley.”

Recently, she told me: “Think about when parsley is great.

It’s great when it’s used copi-

ously, and it’s great when it’s used in conjunction with garlic. Parsley kind of needs a little buddy to reach its full potential.”

So buy parsley often, and cook with it frequently; it is too agreeable an herb to wait for a recipe’s permission to use it. Slice the leaves thinly or chop them coarsely (or finely, if that is your preference, though the texture of larger bits is nice).

Use them whenever you want a hint of something lively and you don’t want that hint to get in the way of everything else: sauteed with onions and garlic at the start of a soup, folded into the ending of a spring vegetable ragout.

If you want more than a hint of liveliness, use more pars-

ley. It is difficult to overdo it.

Scrambled eggs, new potatoes and grainy salads all agree.

Don’t forget the stems: Adler uses them in a kind of crunchy salsa verde, made with scallion, lemon juice, capers, anchovies and cornichons; or pureed, sieved and whisked into mayonnaise; or to infuse vinegar.

Finally, parsley is splendid as a garnish, and it is a functional one. Depending on the dish, liberal applications of parsley to something already on the plate can be invigorating, particularly with dishes that threaten monotony after one too many bites.

Over a ragout of mushrooms on toast or a simple bowl of lentils, what might seem excessive garnish at the

outset can materialize in lilting, restorative breaths.

For cooking, flat-leaf varieties are a little more versatile than the curly kind; their flavor is deeper and sweeter, the leaves generally more tender.

Curly parsley can be lovely in a salad, fried or roasted whole, or, it goes without saying, as a garnish. But it must be in top form. Past its prime, curly parsley begins to taste unpleasantly grassy and takes on a plastic texture that won’t win anyone over.

Regardless of the variety, when you’re shopping for parsley, always look for deep green leaves and healthy stems. (The leaves may be more or less robust, depending upon the variety, but they

should always be tender.)

Parsley that has begun to yellow will be insipid. There’s no use for it anywhere, even in stocks and broths.

Best sources are farmers markets, where freshness is paramount and your chances of finding different varieties are better.

As for my friend, a year working on a farm in California erased his parsley ambivalence. He is now fully committed, finding the herb nearly indispensable for soupmaking, worthy as a substitute for celery and charming in a compound butter.

He also mentioned a killer parsley salad he’d tasted recently, dressed with sesame oil, honey and black pepper. I have sent for the recipe.

Cheesy baked chicken will be a hit with the whole family Parmesan chicken is a great kid-friendly dinner.

Serve with a side of potatoes and asparagus or any combination of their favorite vegetables.

Baked Crusted Parmesan Chicken 3/4 cup butter 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 cup dry bread crumbs 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped 2 tablespoons fresh oregano,

together with the Parmesan cheese, thyme, basil, oregano, pepper and salt in a bowl. Dip the chicken breasts in the butter, then press into the seasoned bread crumbs.

Place the chicken into a 9-by-13 inch baking dish. Bake oven until the chicken is golden brown and no longer pink in the center, about 50 to 55 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt the butter with the garlic in a saucepan over medium heat.

When the butter starts to bubble, remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Stir the breadcrumbs

Let’s get the hard part out of the way. This week, I’m suggesting you eat something most people spend the better part of their adult lives trying to eradicate from their lawns.

Dandelion greens. Not the flowers or stems or the puffy white seeds kids love to blow (thereby complicating your eradication efforts). Just the long, green leaves that grow toward the base of the plant.

Because though we know it better as a weed, since prehistory the leaves of this plant have been gathered and consumed around the world.

The taste is a cross between arugula and kale – slightly bitter and robustly peppery. They are about a foot long with a saw-tooth edge. Why try them? Socalled bitter greens (of which dandelion leaves are just one of many at grocers today) work so well with so many of the flavors you already love.

They go particularly well with rich, even fatty ingredients, helping to cut through those flavors much the way acid (think lemon juice) does.

A note about foraging.

First, be careful. Never eat anything from an area that could have been sprayed with herbicides or other lawn treatments. Second, while wild dandelion greens are perfectly edible, they tend to be shorter and

slightly more bitter than the cultivated variety found in grocers.

Stymied for how to use them? Consider them for any recipe you’d normally used arugula, or even baby spinach. For example, dandelion greens would be delicious mixed into the cheese of a lasagna or stuffed pasta shells.

Cumin-Dandelion Green Cornbread Start to finish: 45 minutes Servings: 8 1 tablespoon olive oil 4 cups chopped fresh dandelion greens (about 1/2 bunch) 1 teaspoon whole cumin seeds 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes Juice of 1 lemon 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup cornmeal 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon salt 1 1/3 cups milk 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, melted 2 large eggs 1 cup frozen or canned corn kernels Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place a 9-by-9-inch metal baking pan or 9-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven to heat.

Meanwhile, in another large skillet over medium-high, heat the oil.

Add the dandelion greens, cumin and red pepper flakes. Saute until the stalks are tender and any extra liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Drizzle the greens with the lemon juice, toss well, then set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.

In another bowl, whisk together the milk, butter and eggs. Mix the wet ingredients into the dry, stirring only enough to moisten the dry ingredients.

Gently stir the dandelion greens and corn into the batter. Remove the heated pan from the oven and coat with cooking spray. Spoon the batter into the pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden. Cool in the pan.

Sweet-and-savory rhubarb sauce tops pork tenderloin EVERYDAY DINNERS Sara Moulton When I informed The Husband I was going to make pork with a rhubarb sauce, he dismissed the idea out of hand. He does not like sweet in his savory.

I tried to explain (as I have a thousand times before) there’s a good reason why any number of classic dishes team up meat and fruit, including duck a l’orange, foie gras with apples, and pork with prunes. Fruit contains acid as well as sugar, and acid has a winning way of cutting through the fatty richness of duck, pork and brisket.

The Husband wasn’t buying it. He’ll eat his roast duck with a peppercorn sauce, his pork with French mustard, and his foie gras without accompaniment of any kind, thank you.

I could have added that rhubarb is a vegetable, not a fruit, and that it’s so tart (not sweet) it’s rarely present in a recipe without some kind of sugar added for balance. But

I would have been banging my head against a wall. So I rocked on regardless because I love rhubarb.

An import from England, rhubarb was known in 19th century America as “the pie plant” because that was where it usually ended up – in pies, often paired with strawberries. But I think the rhubarb’s acidity makes it a splendid ingredient in savory dishes, too.

On the shelf in your grocery store, rhubarb looks a lot like celery, except it’s usually a fetching reddish-purple in color. It comes in long, slender stalks, with strings running from top to bottom. To eliminate the toughness of the strings, some cooks peel their rhubarb before cooking. I deal with the issue (and more easily, I think) by thinly slicing the stalks across the grain of the strings.

Given its high water content, turning rhubarb into a sauce requires little more than cooking it. It breaks down quickly and becomes nice and thick.

In my recipe, it needed some counter-balancing sweetness, so – as a sop to

AP photo

The Husband – I kept the granulated sugar to a bare minimum in favor of fresh orange juice. By the way, given how quickly this recipe comes together, you do want to make sure all your ingredients are prepped and ready to go before you start rolling.

As for the cut of pork on which we ladle this sauce, I went with the tenderloin instead of its neighbor, the loin. Both are lean, but they call it the tenderloin, after all, for a reason. However, this isn’t to say it won’t turn out tough and dry if you overcook it, so be sure to keep your eye on the cook-

Trim off the thin end piece of each tenderloin, cutting off about a 3-inch section. Slice the remaining portion of each tenderloin crosswise into 3/4-inch rounds.

You should end up with about 18 to 20 pieces, including the 2 thin sections cut from the ends.

Season the pork on all sides with salt and pepper.

Girl’s racy Facebook profile ‘Neural mismatch’ makes you sick makes grandma look askance Dear Abby: I have just discovered my granddaughter’s mother helped her get a Facebook page on which she is listed as 17, interested in men and in a relationship. The child is only 11, but you’d never know it from the makeup and hairdo in her photo.

I am heartbroken she is being “marketed” this way and that her prospects for a life of achievement and happiness are zero. I have little to no contact with her because I have been put off by her mother’s “street” attitude.

If her lips are moving, the woman is lying. My granddaughter is disrespectful and ignorant.

What breaks my heart is I had hoped to pass on to her items that have been in our family for generations, including a sizable inheritance.

What can I do to salvage a relationship with a girl who wants nothing to do with me?

Failing that, where can I turn to replace her with a more suitable heir? My son can’t father any more children. – Sad Granny In Florida Dear Sad Granny: Your granddaughter may be disrespectful because her mother dislikes you, and you haven’t been around enough so the girl could really get to know you.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips manner (to put it mildly), and the result could be tragic.

Is it possible for your son to talk with a lawyer and seek custody? If it’s not, he should contact child protective services. Rather than “replace” your grandchild, it would be better for all concerned to HELP her.

Dear Abby: Three years ago, I found out my wife of 14 years was sneaking around behind my back with her high school sweetheart. I confronted both of them, and it ended. I forgave her, but I still can’t sleep at night because of something that’s bothering me. His wife has no idea about the affair, and I feel guilty I haven’t told her about everything that happened.

Some of my friends say I should call her and tell her, but now it seems like it happened too long ago to bring it to her attention. Also, in an attempt to get her husband to come clean – which he did – I promised him I wouldn’t tell his wife.

My wife and I have patched things up, and we’re having the best years of our life together. So the question is, should I break my word and possibly upset my new

relationship with my wife so I can not feel this guilt? – Can’t

Sleep In Illinois Dear Can’t Sleep: Surely there’s a better cure for your insomnia than causing needless pain to the wife. The affair ended years ago, and she is blameless in all this.

Because you still are having trouble sleeping, talk to your doctor about it. Some sessions with a psychologist or a licensed family therapist may help you to assuage your guilt and find closure.

Dear Abby: I have had the same barber for several years, and he is a good friend.

While he was on vacation, I used another barber in the shop for a cut. I really like how he cut my hair. How can I change barbers without causing hurt feelings? –

Lookin’ Good In The Midwest Dear Lookin’ Good: Barbers are human like everyone else.

If you announce you want to make a change, there probably will be hurt feelings.

The question you must ask yourself is, is your relationship with your barber/friend such a close one you’re willing to tolerate continuing to patronize him even though you think someone else can do a better job. (Now THAT’S friendship!)

Dear Dr. K: I’ve always had motion sickness while traveling. Now I’ve started to get it at the movies. What causes motion sickness? And what can I do about it?

Dear Reader: Lots of people get dizzy or nauseated, and even vomit, when traveling by boat, airplane, car or bus.

And as you’ve found, even watching a movie can bring on motion sickness – especially the action scene.

Motion sickness happens when what your eyes see doesn’t match what your body is doing. This is called a “neural mismatch,” and it usually follows one of two patterns.

The first pattern is when your body experiences motion that your eyes can’t see.

Imagine being below deck on a boat. Everything in the room looks stationary to your eye, but your body feels the motion of the boat. Your mind expects you to be able to stand perfectly still, but your body’s reaction to the actual movement contradicts this expectation.

The other type of neural mismatch occurs when your body is not actually moving, but your eyes tell it that it is. This can happen when you’re watching a movie in a

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff

widescreen theater. Movies that include footage filmed from a helicopter can be particularly problematic.

Here are some tips that should help with your motion sickness: • Travel on an empty stomach.

• On an airplane, try to get an aisle seat toward the center of the cabin, where motion is the calmest. The other advantage of an aisle seat is if you do get sick and want to vomit in relative privacy, not into a bag with other people around you, it’s easier to get to the bathroom.

• On a ship, request a lower-level cabin toward the middle of the vessel. There’s less motion there.

• Avoid odors such as perfume, smoke or cooking smells. Open a window for fresh air if possible. Turn on the air vent if you’re on an airplane.

Odors obviously stimulate the sense of smell, and that stimulation somehow makes the brain more

vulnerable to developing motion sickness.

• Don’t read or watch videos during bumpy spells.

If you are very prone to motion sickness, don’t read at all while traveling.

• During a bumpy car or boat ride, keep your gaze fixed on something stationary, like the horizon.

• Avoid alcohol. Too much alcohol, of course, can itself cause nausea, vomiting and dizziness. Even small amounts make the brain more likely to experience those sensations.

• Consider an over-thecounter or prescription motion sickness medication. These may be taken by mouth or as a patch worn behind the ear.

I had very bad motion sickness when I was a child.

Fortunately, it has been much less of a problem since then. I don’t recall ever getting “seasick” watching a movie, although one 3D movie years ago had a scene on a roller coaster. That one made me close my eyes.

Clinton joins Twitter on TV THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Wednesday, April 10, 2013 • PlanitNorthwest.com Brad Paisley and Sheryl Crow

Bill Clinton is now on Twitter, albeit without a very presidential name.

Stephen Colbert lured the former president to the social networking site on “The Colbert Report” on Monday, signing him up with the handle PrezBillyJeff. Clinton dictated his first message to Colbert, who typed: “Just spent an amazing time with Colbert! Is he sane? He is cool!”

Whether Clinton would continue to use the account is uncertain. Colbert’s hand is clearly in the account’s bio, too.

It reads: “Stephen Colbert is my BFF.”

Bagley pleads guilty A former actor on ABC’s “Pretty Little Liars” has pleaded guilty to misdemeanor larceny for lifting $7,000 in electronics and jewelry from a friend’s Manhattan apartment.

Parker Bagley took the plea on Monday in Manhattan Criminal Court.

As part of the plea, the 23-year-old

Paisley song raises controversy Brad Paisley’s collaboration with LL Cool J on “Accidental Racist” has accidentally kicked up some controversy.

The song about racial perception has drawn ire from both the country and urban music worlds after its wide release.

Paisley’s publicist says he isn’t giving interviews about the song. But the country star known for the white cowboy hat and virtuoso guitar work briefly addressed the debate Monday night on Twitter when he reposted a radio host’s blog entry on the song he felt was thought-provoking.

“Cool,” Paisley wrote. “It’s fun to get ya’ll’s take on this. Bring it.”

The song appears on Paisley’s new self-produced album “Wheelhouse,” released Tuesday. It’s his most ambitious album so far and the progressive message of “Accidental Racist” is in line with opinions the 40-year-old West Virginia-born singer has expressed before in interviews and songs.

Of the album, Paisley wrote, “I hope it triggers emotions,” and said he wouldn’t change a thing about it: “This is a record meant to be FAR from easy listening. But fun. Like life. Have a ball, ya’ll.”

At its heart, “Accidental Racist” is about how cultural symbols favored by whites and blacks – the fashion choice of wearing Confederate flags or baggy pants, for instance – come loaded with meaning.

It’s not a new discussion. Though race relations have evolved over the decades, cultural symbols continue to color perceptions.

Paisley uses the Confederate flag as an example in the song, noting whites are “caught between Southern pride and Southern blame” 150 years after the end of the Civil War.

More celeb news at PlanitNorthwest.com/buzz agreed to pay half of the $7,000 on Monday. The remainder is due in June.

He had faced 3rd-degree grand larceny, which carries up to seven years in prison.

Bagley quipped outside court: “I’m just glad they didn’t find the bodies.

That would have been bad.”

Kardashian to testify Kim Kardashian’s upcoming divorce trial will be a family affair, but her attorneys do not expect to call her famous sisters to testify about the reality star’s brief marriage to NBA player Kris Humphries.

But Kris Jenner, Kardashian’s mother, and several lawyers and managers are expected to testify about the pair’s relationship and prenuptial agreement, according to a witness list filed Monday in Los Angeles.

Humphries is seeking an annulment of the pair’s 72-day marriage, claiming it was based on fraud.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS Actor Max von Sydow is 84. Actress Liz Sheridan (“Seinfeld”) is 84. Actor Omar Sharif is 81. Sportscaster John Madden is 77. Reggae artist Bunny Wailer is 66. Actor Steven Seagal is 62. Singer Terre Roche of The Roches is 60.

Actor Peter MacNicol is 59. Bassist Steven Gustafson of 10,000 Maniacs is 56. Singer-producer Babyface is 55. Musician Brian Setzer is 54. Rapper Afrika Bambaataa is 53. Singer Katrina Leskanich of Katrina and the Waves is 53.

Drummer Tim “Herb” Alexander of Primus is 48. Comedian Orlando Jones is 45. Guitarist Mike Mushok of Staind is 44. Singer Kenny Lattimore is 43. Rapper Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest is 43. Blues singer Shemekia Copeland is 34. Actress Chyler Leigh (“Grey’s Anatomy”) is 31. Bassist Andrew Dost of fun. is 30. Actor Ryan Merriman (“The Pretender”) is 30. Singer-actress Mandy Moore is 29. Actor Haley Joel Osment (“The Sixth Sense”) is 25. Singer-actress AJ Michalka of Aly and AJ is 22.

Kardashian wants a judge to enter a divorce judgment instead and has denied accusations that she married Humphries for the sake of her reality shows.

She will testify she “did not defraud [Humphries] into marrying her,” the filing by Kardashian’s legal team states.

Kardashian’s boyfriend, Kanye West, and her sisters Kourtney and Khloe are not listed as probable witnesses.

GSN develops dating show The GSN television network is looking to build on the success of “The American Bible Challenge” with a church-based dating show.

“The American Bible Challenge” is a runaway hit for the game show-focused cable network. Jeff Foxworthy is host of the show, which quizzes contestants on their Biblical knowledge.

GSN is developing “It Takes a Church,” where church parishioners compete to find a love interest for a single member of the congregation.

Pete Thennes inspects cleaned tent panels in the warehouse at the Ed’s Rental facility in Crystal Lake.

Third generation joins Ed’s Rental

By BRETT ROWLAND browland@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Ed Thennes started out delivering fuel oil in McHenry in 1956, but the growing popularity of natural gas forced him to find another way to support his family.

He owned a large collection of tools and was good at fixing things.

Frequently asked to lend out his tools, he decided to open a rental business.

Ed’s Rental & Sales Inc. was incorporated in 1959. It now has three stores in McHenry County.

In the beginning, when a customer asked if Thennes had a specific tool or piece of equipment, he would often say it was being rented out, but would be available later in the day. He would then run to a local hardware store, buy the item and rent it out, said son Tom Thennes, who at 75 is still involved in the family business.

“Without Ace Hardware and McHenry Electric, there wouldn’t be an Ed’s Rental,” Tom Thennes said.

Tom Thennes, one of seven children in the family, soon began working for his father, earning about $20 a week. His efforts to improve his father’s business weren’t always appreciated. Ed Thennes fired his son and told him to buy the business if he wanted to change things.

Unable to purchase the operation, Tom Thennes joined the U.S. Army, where he got a raise. After two years in the service, he got a job driving a ready mix truck.

In 1972, he teamed up with his brother, Dick, to buy the business.

Tom Thennes later bought his brother’s interest in the business.

Ed’s Rental has grown as the county has grown. In addition to the McHenry store, it has locations in

JOHNSBURG – It’s coming down to the final stretch for two Johnsburg men who are losing weight for charity.

Josh Downey, owner of giardiniera maker Chicago Johnny’s, and Tyler Wildey of Epic Deli in Johnsburg have been involved in a month-long contest that will culminate in a final weigh-in at 8 p.m. April 16 at Epic Deli, 3312 N. Chapel Hill Road.

Downey’s charity is the Animal Outreach Humane Society of McHenry County. Wildey’s charity is the Next Contender Foundation. Fundraising jars are at Sunnyside Little Store, 4304 N. Johnsburg Road, Johnsburg, and Epic Deli.

“Those proceeds will be split between the two charities,” Downey said.

“Additionally, of the two of us, the one that loses less weight will donate $50 to the other’s charity.”

For more information, call Downey at 815-307-4685, or Epic Deli, 815-271-5204.

Midwest Dental offers oral cancer screenings

Ed’s Rental & Sales Inc. What: A family-run general equipment rental company.

Where: 904 N. Front St., McHenry; 5407 E. Terra Cotta Ave., Crystal Lake; and 914 W. Algonquin Road, Algonquin.

Information: www.edsrental.com

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

Crystal Lake and Algonquin. And a third generation of the Thennes family has joined the business.

Tom Thennes’ sons, Don and Pete, run the Crystal Lake and Algonquin stores, respectively.

Ed’s Rental rents and sells construction equipment, power tools, wedding accessories, entertainment equipment, generators, heaters, automotive tools and party equipment.

The three locations offer everything from chain saws and hedge trimmers to sno-cone machines and giant inflatable bounce houses and water tunnels.

Among the more unique items for rent is a gasoline-powered blender. There’s also a tool for manually removing the horns of a bull, thought it hasn’t been rented in 35 years.

Much of the business is seasonal.

In spring, lawn and garden equipment is popular. In summer, it’s wedding accessories and party equipment for graduation celebrations. Construction equipment takes over in the fall.

In the winter, which is the slowest time of year, homeowners rent equipment for home improvement and remodeling projects.

Don and Pete Thennes have modernized the business and helped it survive the recession. The Great Recession hit the construction industry particularly hard, but rentals in all segments declined, the brothers said. Some of their

Brothers Don (left) and Pete Thennes run Ed’s Rental stores in Crystal Lake and Algonquin.

Business Journal preview This story appears in the McHenry County Business Journal, published last week.

competitors closed as a result of the downturn, Don Thennes said.

“We learned a lot,” Pete Thennes said. “We figured out what it took to survive.”

Prior to the recession, investing in new equipment was usually an easy decision. Instead of buying one bounce house or backhoe, they’d buy two or three at a time. Now, major purchases are made more prudently.

“It was quite an eye-opener,” Don Thennes said.

Owning a family-run business means the brothers work many long weeks and often end up taking their work home. But it also affords them greater security and control.

“The future is in your own hands rather than someone else’s hands,” Pete Thennes said.

Furthermore, the brothers cherish their role in the community. They frequently sponsor youth athletic teams and the sons and daughters of longtime customers are now bringing in their own children to rent wedding chairs or party equipment.

LAKE IN THE HILLS – The Midwest Dental office in Lake in the Hills will be providing complimentary visual head and neck oral cancer exams April 15-18 in recognition of Oral Cancer Awareness Month.

Oral cancer exams will be held during normal business hours. No appointment is necessary and you do not need to be a current patient.

The Lake in the Hills office is located at 152 N. Randall Road.

For more information, call 224-829-0304 or visit www. midwest-dental.com.

According to owner Kelly Carden, increased petroleum costs have impacted the cost of roofing materials, with price increases of up to 15 percent from most suppliers.

“Many of the price increases for spring 2013 were effective in March or April,” Carden said. “We are holding the lower price on all jobs installed before May 1, 2013.”

Volo Auto Museum, 102.3XLC team up to aid drive-in NORTHWEST HERALD McHENRY – The 35-millimeter projector’s long run is about to end.

Most major movie studios will stop distributing 35-millimeter film by the end of 2013, industry accounts say. That puts the fate of numerous theaters, including the iconic McHenry Outdoor Theater, in jeopardy.

It will cost about $130,000 to buy a digital projector and to add air conditioning and upgrade the electrical system in the projection booth, said Scott Dehn, theater owner.

“We need as much support as we can get,” said Dehn, adding that he is grateful and excited about a Volo Auto Museum and Radio Station 102.3XLC cross promotion that starts this week.

Volo Auto Museum Director Brian Grams said the museum and XLC have invested in the campaign to help drive more traffic to the theater at Chapel Hill and Lincoln roads, McHenry.

“The drive-in is one of those great facets of American culture,” Grams said. “Unless they can get a digital

To publicize the campaign, Waukegan-based radio station 102.3XLC will feature ads touting a contest into which weekend theater-goers automatically will be

entered. Each week, one customer will win the “Superhero Seat,” plus free admission tickets for the entire carload, for the following weekend.

Winners will be announced on the theater’s Facebook page.

Just what is the Superhero Seat?

Chairs will be set up in the bed of a light blue 1963 Dodge pickup truck, which the museum will give away at an Aug. 24 promotion finale.

But what’s so special about a weathered ’63 pickup? Well, this one was used in the new “Man of Steel” movie, set for release this June. In fact, you can see the truck, being leaned on by actor Kevin Costner, in the movie trailer at manofsteel.com.

Plans are to show “Man of Steel” at the Aug. 24 promotion finale, Grams said.

“It will be an event with live broadcasting by XLC, with the host dressed as Superman, and I will be bringing out the Batmobile,” Grams said. “The second movie we’re shooting for is ‘Batman.’”

In addition to the cross promotion, Dehn is launching a fundraising appeal on indiegogo.com, he said.

“Every year there are fewer and fewer drive-ins,” he said. “There’re less than 400 left in the U.S. now, and it would just really be a shame not to have it.”

The theater season starts May 3 with “Iron Man 3.”

8IN BRIEF Dow hits another record, driven by commodities NEW YORK – The Dow Jones industrial average closed at another record high, driven by a surge in materials companies.

The Dow gained almost 60 points to 14,673 Tuesday, an increase of 0.4 percent.

The Dow most recently set a record a week ago. It’s up 12 percent this year.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 rose five points, or 0.4 percent, to close at 1,568. That’s less than two points from the record high the index reached last week.

The Nasdaq rose 15, or 0.5 percent, to 3,237.

Materials stocks led the gains following a surge in prices for commodities like copper. Cliffs Natural Resources jumped 9 percent.

Three stocks rose for every two that fell on the New York Stock Exchange.

Companies post more jobs, but fill them slowly WASHINGTON – U.S. employers advertised the most job openings in nearly five years in February, but overall hiring rose at a much slower pace. The figures suggest companies are too cautious about the economy to quickly fill open jobs.

The Labor Department said Tuesday that the number of available jobs rose 8.7 percent in February from January to a seasonally adjusted 3.93 million — the highest since May 2008.

At the same time, companies hired a seasonally adjusted 4.4 million people. That’s just 2.8 percent higher than January.

And hiring remains lower than it was a year ago, when it reached 4.49 million.

Economists say there are several likely reasons for the disparity. Unemployed workers may lack the skills employers seek. Or companies may not be offering enough pay.

Taglines strengthen a company’s name Certainly the most effective starting point for any meaningful discussion about the strength of company names is defining what a weak business name is, where it comes from and how to avoid one. To open that discussion, here’s a question I hear quite often, particularly from startup entrepreneurs: “Can you suggest a clever or catchy name for my new business?”

Right up there with that question are comments such as “My daughter’s (or son’s or pet’s) name is X. I want to include that in the name of my business.” Another frequent mistake made by many new business owners is their insistence on including their initials in their company’s name – PAG Consulting, for example.

The truth is that clever and catchy names rarely attract potential customers to a business. What does get their attention is a name that seems to answer a need they have or that appears to solve a problem they’re facing. As for including a child’s or pet’s name in a business name, potential customers won’t make that connection and most likely couldn’t care less. As for using personal initials, it amounts to little more than an ego

name by communicating an end-benefit. Or, put another way, the function of a tagline is to communicate what the company name fails to deliver.\ Some classic examples of truly effective taglines include BMW, the auto maker, with “The Ultimate Driving Machine” as its tagline. While the premise may be debatable, implicit in that tagline is that no other auto maker can surpass BMW vehicles for quality or performance.

The Red Lobster restaurant chain is another fine example with “Sea Food Differently,” a tagline that actually does double duty. Implicit in its TV commercials is that Red Lobster prepares food in ways that are tastier than other restaurants.

The chain gets an additional bounce from its tagline because when “Sea Food Differently” is heard as part of the voice-over words spoken during its TV spots those words suggest to consumers that they will “See Food Differently” only at their local Red Lobster.

Columbia, the outdoor clothing maker, is another company with an interesting, dual-purpose tagline, “Trying stuff since 1938.” It’s letting the world know that Columbia has

YOUR BUSINESS Phil Grisolia trip by the business owner. IBM was known for a very long time as International Business Machines before becoming simply IBM. So if those options are out – because they’re not effective – what’s left? Selecting a company name that does what it’s supposed to do – that tells potential customers or clients that your company can fulfill a need they have or solve a problem they’re facing – is essential. That’s often easier said than done, which is why the right tagline can be a tremendous help.

What’s a tagline? you ask. Typically it’s a group of from three to five appropriately selected words – though occasionally as many as six or seven – that almost always accompany the name of the business. A tagline serves to explain to potential customers what the business is or does. It helps a company to better target its desired audience. In short, the right tagline has the ability to extend the company

been around for more than 75 years at the same time it positions the company as the innovator in its field.

Not every tagline is used to its best advantage. Take Subaru, the car maker, for example. In every quirky Subaru TV commercial I recall seeing during the past year the key word, the last thought Subaru left me with on-screen is the word “Love,” but not in the sense that someone might love their Subaru, just vague, generic love.

Does generic love really sell cars? I can’t find a shred of research to prove that, while common sense seems to indicate otherwise. Though you wouldn’t know it from watching its TV ads – because the words “Confidence in Motion” only show up once in each TV spot – those words may actually be Subaru’s tagline. It’s hard to tell, but their meaning, however, remains rather vague.

Boeing planning $1 billion expansion

By BRUCE SMITH

Turkish Airlines plans to order 70 Boeing 737s

Associated Press CHARLESTON, S.C. – The Boeing Co. is expanding in South Carolina and will invest another $1 billion, creating 2,000 new jobs during the next eight years, the aerospace giant announced Tuesday.

Company spokeswoman Candy Eslinger said the company that operates a 787 assembly plant in North Charleston will expand its operations. The first of the new 787s made in South Carolina rolled off the assembly line about a year ago.

News of the expansion was first reported by The Post and Courier.

“Since 2009, Boeing has invested more than $1 billion in land, facilities, infrastructure, and tooling in South Carolina and today we have more than 6,000 teammates working at the Boeing sites in the state,” Eslinger said. “With unprecedented demand for commercial airplanes — including a forecast of another 34,000 airplanes required over the next 20 years — Boeing is positioned for significant and sustained growth in the years ahead.”

Eslinger said the company is making the investment to qualify for state incentives being introduced in the General Assembly in Columbia this week.

CHICAGO – Boeing Co. said on Tuesday that Turkish Airlines plans to order 70 of its workhorse 737s.

The airline has committed to order 20 737800s, a version of the plane Boeing is making now. Turkish also plans to buy 40 737 Max 8s and 10 737 Max 9s, which is a planned new version of the plane which will have new engines.

The deal would be worth $6.9 billion at list prices, although discounts are common. It also includes options for another 25 737 Max 8s.

Boeing said it would work with Turkish to finalize the order.

The 737 is Boeing’s smallest but most popular plane.

The newspaper reported that House Speaker Bobby Harrell and state Sen. Hugh Leatherman plan to co-sponsor legislation providing $120 million to offset Boeing’s upfront expansion costs, like site preparation and utility expenses.

Lawmakers said they’ve been told the company will establish an information technology center creating about 1,000 jobs. The other 1,000 jobs will be comprised of 787 engineers and production

employees.

“I think what we’re seeing is a whole new phase of building airplanes in South Carolina,” Gov. Nikki Haley told the newspaper. Haley was in Charleston on Tuesday attending an aerospace conference. Boeing officials and state Secretary of Commerce Bobby Hitt also were in attendance.

Last year, the Charleston County Aviation Authority began the process of selling 320 acres of land near the North Charleston assembly site.

The agency voted to give Boeing first rights of refusal on nearly 500 more acres, as well as an option to buy another 265 acres. Last year Boeing also bought the South Carolina Research Authority office site near its assembly plant.

The 787 has been grounded since mid-January because of a problem with smoldering lithium-ion batteries. The company has proposed a fix to federal regulators and last week conducted a final test on the new design that includes more heat insulation and a battery box designed so that any meltdown of the battery vents hot gases outside of the plane.

None of the 787s that reported battery problems were built in South Carolina.

Amtrak ridership hits record levels The Associated Press NEW YORK – Amtrak ridership increased in the first six months of fiscal year 2013, with ridership in March setting a record as the single best month ever in Amtrak’s history, the railroad said Tuesday.

Ridership grew 0.9 percent from October 2012 to March compared to the prior year despite disruptions from weather including Superstorm Sandy. Amtrak said 26 of 45 routes had rider increases.

The railroad said October, December and January also set individual monthly records. Amtrak expects to end the fiscal year at or above last year’s record of 31.2 million passengers.

Amtrak said ridership was up 9.8 percent on the Illini/Saluki, which operates between Chicago and New Orleans; 8.9 percent on the San Joaquin in California, 8.6 percent on the Piedmont in North Carolina and 8.2 percent on the Wolverine route in Michigan.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

Corrie ten Boom, whose book “The Hiding Place” chronicles her efforts to save Dutch Jews from the Nazis, said, “When a train goes through a tunnel and it gets dark, you don’t throw away the ticket and jump off. You sit still and trust the engineer.”

At the bridge table, though, sometimes you must jump and trust the theoreticians.

Today we will look at the third bid that changes its meaning in the balancing position. If the dealer opens one of a suit and the next player makes a single jump overcall in a different suit, it is weak. However, if the opening bid is followed by two passes, a single jump overcall in the passout seat is intermediate, promising a good six-card suit and 14 to 16 high-card points. South’s two-spade jump overcall in this deal is textbook.

After North raises to four spades, West leads the spade king, cashes the spade ace, and exits with a heart to dummy’s king.

How should South continue?

At irst glance, declarer needs one of the two dia-

mond inesses to work. But the contract is guaranteed with an elimination and endplay. South plays a club to his ace, overtakes the club jack with dummy’s king, ruffs the last club in his hand, and returns to the board with a heart.

With trumps drawn and both red suits eliminated, declarer plays a diamond to his 10. West wins with the jack but is endplayed.

If he returns a diamond, it is away from the king into South’s ace-queen. Or if West leads a heart, declarer ruffs on the board and sluffs his diamond queen.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Friends and/or associates will back you up when things get out of hand in the year ahead. Knowing that support will be available when you need it will enable you to confidently go after what you want.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You’ll do your best work with enterprises you originate or can personally control. Stick to these sorts of undertakings, and you’ll go far.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- The beginning of a very interesting cycle could be under way. The first instance of it will be someone going out of his or her way to repay a kindness.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- An endeavor that you have high hopes for is likely to take a turn for the better.

Even if it isn’t as huge as you envisioned, relax and give it time to develop.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Don’t despair if one of your projects isn’t turning out to be as grandiose as you hoped. It may just need a bit more tweaking to make it perfect.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- This might be the perfect day to light the fuse on something that you expect to be very influential. Timing is everything.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Transformations are developing that could have a good effect on your financial status. Though you’ll have little control over them, the results will be pleasant.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Someone whose influence exceeds yours is beginning to view you as a possible partner for an important project. There’s a chance a beneficial alliance could develop.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Continue to perform in ways that could impress your superiors, because they likely have their eyes on you. If you do your best, a promotion or raise might be forthcoming.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- People of all types are likely to be drawn to you because, perhaps without you even realizing it, you’ll have an exciting charisma. A rise in popularity is inevitable.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- The lucky feeling you have is likely to be accurate. Rely on it, even if surface indicators don’t appear to be supporting it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- If you have some innovative ideas or plans that you would like to develop, go for it. Make this a day for thinking and operating on a grand scale.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Although your financial trends may have been erratic lately, you should relax. Some stabilizing influences are starting to enter the picture.
