Journalist, historian Peasley dies ‘Mr. Woodstock’ remembered for his personable manner, patience and charity Don Peasley worked as a journalist and historian for more than 65 years in McHenry County.

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Don Peasley, a McHenry County staple as a journalist and historian for more than 65 years, died Friday at age 90.

The editor, columnist and historian had suffered a stroke in late February but was back at home with a full-time caretaker. “He was a wonderful man,” said Marybeth Vogrinc, Peasley’s assistant since 1980. “He was a role model

to me with his patience and his charity toward people.” Peasley, of Woodstock, continued the work he loved through his last day. He had been writing about people and events around the county in

‘Fresh and fun’ activities

SUMMER RESOURCES Numerous park districts and recreational groups in McHenry County offer annual summer programming for all kinds of residents. Check with these local agencies to learn more. General resources include: n The McHenry County Convention and Visitors Bureau 815-893-6280 executivedirector@mchenrycountycvb.com n Sage YMCA 815-459-4455 www.ymcachicago.org n The Crystal Lake Park District 815-459-0680 info@crystallakeparks.org

sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com As summer nears, recreational groups throughout McHenry County have begun unveiling new and enhanced programs for residents itching for ways to take advantage of the warm summer months. Camps, beach activities, biking and hiking are just a few of the activities available to residents both young and old through groups such as the Crystal Lake Park District and Sage YMCA. Each year, the groups are challenged to offer fresh programs for the popular summer season while feeling increased pressure to hold fees in check during a down economy. “Offering the highest quality of programs and keeping fees under control is definitely a challenge and goal for our staff,” said Kim Buscemi, recreation services superintendent for the Crystal Lake Park District. The district is putting the final touches on its summer brochure, which will be sent May 15 to Crystal Lake-area residents. Once released, residents can start registering for a summer program lineup that features traditional and new activities, Buscemi said. Visitors at the district’s Main Beach off Lake Shore Drive can expect new themed events, including “Wet and Wild Thursdays,” which features a special activity each week. Swimmers and beach bums can take a break from the sun and participate in the district’s new arts and crafts program that features a different project at the Main Beach each Tuesday. The district also has added more fitness classes and introduced a punch pass that allows residents to attend a variety of group exercise classes. The district’s summer day camp for kids of all ages returns in June and features many summer activities.

The new offerings are an attempt to keep the summer program fresh for residents, Buscemi said, but the district also has been challenged to keep its broad programming affordable. The district has taken an austere approach to spending in recent years that has enabled officials to keep fees, which vary depending on the program, relatively flat since the economic downturn in 2008. “Over the last several years, our registration has held steady,” Buscemi said. “We are constantly trying to provide the best programs at the most affordable prices.” Sage YMCA also has kept its summer program fees in check while adding new programs for younger children, senior program director Graham Little said. Sage YMCA has 13 different

Emanuel pushes for Chicago casino By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Visitors to the nation’s third-largest city are usually spotted wandering the Magnificent Mile, snapping pictures of the Willis Tower and sampling Chicago-style deep dish pizza, but if some persistent Illinois lawmakers and Mayor Rahm Emanuel get their way, a glitzy casino would be on their agenda, too. Trying to land a Chicago casino has become an annual sticking point, despite political gusto from mayors and legislators who want to expand gambling in Illinois. Gov. Pat Quinn has axed two gambling bills and invoked images of infiltrating “mobsters.” Along that same theme, the head of the Illinois Gaming Board said the pending plan is inherently problematic because of the way a Chicago casino will be managed. Still, the latest bill – which recently cleared the Illinois Senate and also would allow slot machines located in lounges at O’Hare and Midway – appears to have the best chance yet. For the first time, Quinn signaled his support for gaming in a major speech, saying this year that he’d be open to a gaming bill if the revenue benefits schools, a stance that comes as Illinois faces mountainous money problems. Meanwhile, Emanuel is pushing hard for the proposal, lawmakers are eager to rework it and business leaders would love the chance to plant a casino in Chicago – the largest American city to date – with thousands of noisy slots, an entertainment venue and a continuous flow of money-spending tourists. “It’s not just another riverboat

8WATER COOLER Wash. school closes because of nice weather SEATTLE – In sun-deprived Washington state, the promise of nice spring weather prompted a small private school to give students a day off to enjoy the sunshine. Friday is a “sun day” of sorts for the 205 students at Bellingham Christian School, a small private Christian school in Bellingham, Wash., about 90 miles north of Seattle. Principal Bob Sampson said he wanted to give students some time to re-energize and enjoy the weather, adding that he wanted to re-create the excitement snow days get among the kids. He began teasing the possibility of giving the day off earlier in the week. “In a world that’s got a lot hard things going, it’s fun to create a moment joy,” Sampson said. Sampson surveyed parents to make sure the day off wouldn’t cause any hardships and floated the idea with the school board before canceling school, he said. The 22 staff members will also get the day off, he added. It’s not the first time the school has given students the day off because of sunshine. The last time was two years ago.

By BRIAN SKOLOFF The Associated Press PHOENIX – Jodi Arias’ lawyer implored jurors on Friday to take an impartial view of the case and his client – even if they don’t like her – as the murder trial neared an end after four months of testimony. Arias smiled broadly when defense lawyer Kirk Nurmi told the jury during his closing arguments, “It’s not about whether or not you like Jodi Arias. Nine days out of 10, I don’t like Jodi Arias. ... But that doesn’t matter.” Arias says she killed her one-time boyfriend Travis Alexander in self-defense, but prosecutors say it was an act

of premeditated first-degree murder that could carry a death sentence or life in prison. Jurors also have the option of finding Arias guilty of second-degree murder if they don’t believe she planned the attack, but instead think it occurred in the heat of the moment. If convicted on that charge, she could face up to 25 years in prison. A manslaughter conviction carries a sentence of seven to 21 years. Nurmi told jurors the entire case was about “fear, love, sex, lies and dirty little secrets” and repeated over and over that the prosecution’s theory of a planned attack “doesn’t make any sense.”

Industry ready for unveiling of TV’s fall lineup By FRAZIER MOORE The Associated Press NEW YORK – Right now the broadcast networks are feverishly fashioning their fall prime-time schedules. Some 104 pilots are being screened by execs and test audiences, with just one-third expected to pass muster and become series for the 2013-14 season. Once they premiere, maybe a dozen will actually click with viewers and win a second year. “Then how many series make it to the magic four-year mark, where they really make money? Maybe half of that,” says analyst Brad Adgate of media-buying firm Horizon

Media. Extravagant? Wasteful? Maybe. But the program development process at the broadcast networks is also well-entrenched. And even profitable. “When you get a show like ‘The Big Bang Theory,’ it pays for a lot of missteps,” notes Adgate with a laugh. Anticipating the “upfront week” of May 13 (when ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC and the CW unveil their lineups for advertisers and the world), industry analysts and media writers have been handicapping each network pilot, described for them but sight unseen, as a familiar springtime guessing game: Which will be

among the chosen few? Which are doomed to oblivion? Adgate likes the sound of “Marvel’s S.H.I.E.L.D,” a comic-book adventure brought to the TV screen by hitmaker and fan-boy fave Joss Whedon for ABC. He also likes Fox’s “Rake,” starring Greg Kinnear as a lawyer who is brilliant but flawed (it’s one of four pilots with a “House”-esque brilliant-but-flawed hero). And then there’s CBS’ comedy pilot, “Mom,” produced by sitcom legend Chuck Lorre (whose credits include CBS’ “Two and a Half Men” and the aforementioned “Big Bang Theory”). Already a lock is Mi-

Almost as much of a sure thing would seem to be “NCIS: Red,” a spinoff of CBS’ ratings juggernaut “NCIS: Los Angeles” (itself a spinoff of ratings juggernaut “NCIS”). Needless to say, CBS (with its murderer’s row of sitcoms and its finely wrought portfolio of procedurals) is in better shape as next fall looms than other networks you might mention, such as NBC, whose February plunge to an unprecedented sixth place in the ratings (behind Spanish-language Univision) after having been on top last fall has become part of TV lore.

Boston bomb States fear loss of health care aid Officials say cost overruns could mean thousands of people without coverage suspect’s family plans funeral By RICARDO ALONSO ZALDIVAR The Associated Press

By BOB SALSBERG and BRIDGET MURPHY The Associated Press BOSTON – The family of slain Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev made arrangements Friday for his funeral as investigators searched the woods near a college attended by his younger brother and fellow suspect. A funeral parlor in Worcester that is familiar with Muslim services said it will handle arrangements for Tsarnaev, whose body was released by the state medical examiner Thursday night. The body was taken initially to a North Attleborough funeral home, where it was greeted by about 20 protesters. Peter Stefan, owner of Graham Putnam and Mahoney Funeral Parlors in Worcester, an hour’s drive west of Boston, said everybody deserves a dignified burial service no matter the circumstances of his or her death and he is prepared for protests. Tsarnaev, 26, died three days after the bombing in a furious getaway attempt in which authorities say he and his brother, ethnic Chechens from Russia who came to the United States about a decade ago, killed an MIT campus police officer and tossed homemade bombs and grenades at police. The younger brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, ran over his brother’s body as he drove away from the scene to escape, authorities have said. The medical examiner

Relatives had said they would claim the body, but Stefan said Friday funeral arrangements had yet to be worked out and he could not say whether he has possession of the body. Meanwhile, two U.S. officials said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev told interrogators that he and his brother initially considered setting off their bombs on July Fourth. Boston police said they planned to review security procedures for the Independence Day Boston Pops concert and fireworks display, which draws a crowd of more than 500,000 annually and is broadcast to a national TV audience. Authorities plan to look at security procedures for large events held in other cities, notably the massive New Year’s Eve celebration held each year in New York City’s Times Square, Massachusetts state police spokesman David Procopio said. Gov. Deval Patrick said everything possible will be done to assure a safe event.

WASHINGTON – Thousands of people with serious medical problems are in danger of losing coverage under President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul because of cost overruns, state officials say. At risk is the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan, a transition program that’s become a lifeline for the so-called “uninsurables” – people with serious medical conditions who can’t get coverage elsewhere. The program helps bridge the gap for those patients until next year, when under the new law insurance companies will be required to accept people regardless of their medical problems. In a letter this week to Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, state officials said they were “blindsided” and “very disappointed” by a federal proposal they contend would shift the

CHICAGO – The U.S. Supreme Court is giving Illinois’ attorney general more time to decide whether to appeal a ruling that the state’s ban on the public possession of firearms is unconstitutional. Attorney General Lisa Madigan now has until June 24 to ask the high court to hear the case. The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals found Illinois’ prohibition on the carrying of concealed firearms unconstitutional in December. It ordered lawmakers to pass legislation to legalize concealed carry by June 9. The 30-day extension granted by the court Friday does not affect that deadline. Spokeswoman Natalie Bauer says Madigan has not yet decided if she will appeal. In a petition seeking the ex-

tension, Madigan’s office stated that the appellate court ruling conflicted with several other rulings on guns.

Lt. Gov. wants committee to study school funding SPRINGFIELD – Lt. Gov.

The resolution would create an Advisory Committee on Education Funding. The committee would issue recommendations by Feb. 1, 2014, on how to make education funding more equitable.

Barge breakaway causes small Miss. River oil spill ST. LOUIS – Roughly 300 gallons of crude oil spilled early Friday into the Mississippi River near St. Louis after a vessel on the rain-swollen waterway slammed into a fleet of docked barges, causing 14 of them to briefly break away, according to the Coast Guard. None of the oil was found to have washed up on the river’s banks as of mid-morning Friday, though crews still were assessing the possible environmental fallout of the spill – the equivalent of seven barrels – and the precise cause of the accident about 1 a.m. near Alton, Ill., Coast Guard Lt. Colin Fogarty said.

risk for cost overruns to states in the waning days of the program. About 100,000 people are currently covered. “We are concerned about what will become of our high risk members’ access to this decent and affordable coverage,” wrote Michael Keough, chairman of the National As-

als,” added Keough, who runs North Carolina’s program. He warned of “large-scale enrollee terminations at this critical transition time.” The crisis is surfacing at a politically awkward time for the Obama administration, which is trying to persuade states to embrace a major expansion of Medicaid under the health care law. One of the main arguments proponents of the expansion are making is that Washington is a reliable financial partner. The root of the problem is that the federal health care law capped spending on the program at $5 billion, and the money is running out because the beneficiaries turned out to be costlier to care for than expected. Advanced heart disease and cancer are common diagnoses for the group. Obama did not ask for any additional funding for the program in his latest budget, and a Republican bid to keep the program failed to win support in the House last week.

mother, Seham Tounisi, was distraught, crying as she left the Chicago courtroom and leaning against her husband, Ahmad Tounisi. A woman with them said, “This is unfair!” On Thursday, U.S. Magistrate Judge Daniel Martin ruled Tounisi could be released on home confinement. He stayed his own order to give the government 24 hours to appeal. The American-born Tounisi was snared in an Internet sting after contacting a sham website set up by the FBI purporting to connect would-be fighters with terrorists, according to court filings. He was arrested at O’Hare International Airport last month

as he allegedly prepared for the first leg of a trip to Syria to join Jabhat al-Nusrah. Judge Chang cited emails in which Tounisi allegedly stated his intention to join the al-Qaida-affiliated group fighting Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime. That suggests “the defendant was knowingly attempting to join this group – a very dangerous group,” Chang said. To drive home Tounisi’s apparent determination and resourcefulness, prosecutor William Ridgway said the cash-strapped teen even managed to divert financial aid to attend the College of DuPage in suburban Chicago to pay for his plane ticket. Even after worried family

members had told Tounisi he “will be killing (his) mother” by persisting in plans to travel abroad, he pushed ahead, the judge said. The judge also cited Tounisi’s friend, Adel Daoud, who was arrested last year for allegedly trying to detonate a device he thought was a bomb outside a Chicago bar. Daoud has pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors say Tounisi helped brainstorm potential targets with Daoud, though Tounisi was never charged in that case. Chang said an FBI interview with Tounisi about Daoud last year should have so frightened Tounisi as to make other alleged plots unthinkable to him.

Johnny Bass sets up the Henry Repeating Arms Company booth as exhibitors prepare for the National Rifle Association convention Wednesday at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston.

NRA official says members are in a ‘culture war’ The ASSOCIATED PRESS HOUSTON – The National Rifle Association kicked off its annual convention Friday with a warning to its members they are engaged in a “culture war” that stretches beyond gun rights, further ramping up emotions surrounding the gun control debate. NRA First Vice President James Porter, who will assume the organization’s presidency Monday, issued a full-throated challenge to President Barack Obama in the wake of a major victory regarding gun control and called on members to dig in for a long fight that will stretch into the 2014 elections. More than 70,000 NRA members are expected to attend the three-day convention amid the backdrop of the national debate over gun control and the defeat of a U.S. Senate bill introduced after December’s mass shooting at a Newtown, Conn., elementary school. A small gathering of gun control supporters were outside of the convention in Houston. Porter’s remarks came in a short speech to about 300 people at a grass-roots organizing meeting and set the tone for a “Stand and Fight”-themed convention that is part gun trade show, political rally and

strategy meeting. “This is not a battle about gun rights,” Porter said, calling it “a culture war.” “(You) here in this room are the fighters for freedom. We are the protectors,” said Porter, whose father was NRA president from 1959-1960. Rob Heagy, a former parole officer from San Francisco, agreed with Porter’s description of a culture war. “It is a cultural fight on those 10 guarantees,” he said, referring to the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution. “Mr. Obama said he wasn’t going after our guns. As soon as the Connecticut thing happened, he came after our guns.” That theme carried throughout the day and reached a crescendo in a 3 ½-hour political rally punctuated by fiery speeches from state and national conservative leaders. “You stood up when freedom was under assault and you stood in the gap, you made a difference,” former U.S. senator and Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum told the cheering crowd of more than 3,500 at the rally. “This is a critical time in American history. Something big is happening in America,” Santorum said. “Stand for America. Fight for America.”

South Carolina center stage in early 2016 talk The ASSOCIATED PRESS COLUMBIA, S.C. – Mere months after the 2012 election, South Carolina is a buzz of political activity with a slate of potential presidential candidates already looking ahead to the state’s “first in the South” primary – still three years away. Vice President Joe Biden, a Democrat, and Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, a tea party favorite with national aspirations, were simply the latest politicians to do the presidential campaign tease with the state, descending on it Friday to whip up the partisan faithful ahead of next week’s special congressional election. It features former GOP Gov. Mark Sanford and Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch, the sister of comedian Stephen Colbert. In this conservative state that reliably votes Republican in national and statewide general elections, partisans already are getting a hefty amount of attention. Typically, South Carolina finds itself at the center of American politics for a brief time every four years during the presidential primary season, when it usually is the third state to weigh in on who should become the Democratic and Republican presidential nominees. South Carolina’s primaries have played an important role in the nominating process for both parties; the state gave Barack Obama a commanding victory in 2008 and until last year, every Republican nominee had won the state’s primary since Ronald Reagan in 1980. Years ahead of the 2016 con-

tests, Republican and Democratic hopefuls alike already are starting to survey the landscape, court Vice support and President weigh in on Joe Biden local matters, with wide-open fields shaping up in both parties. “The activists in this state are unhappy about the results of the presidential election,” said Jay W. Ragley, a former executive director of the state Republican Party. “They’re looking for someone who has a message which national Republicans can rally behind.” With Obama barred from seeking a third term, Democrats here also may be starting to seek their own consensus candidate. This week, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, a potential 2016 candidate, endorsed Sanford, and the party announced that Paul would hold fundraisers for Republicans in the state on June 28. Last month, Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, talked up his record – and heaped criticism on South Carolina Republican Gov. Nikki Haley – during a Democratic event in Charleston, while former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, said to be eyeing another run after losing the GOP nomination last year, campaigned for Curtis Bostic, who lost to Sanford in a Republican runoff for the open congressional seat. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, a potential 2016 candidate, was here months ahead of the pack, headlining the state’s Silver Elephant dinner last year.

Obama: U.S., Latin America must fight drug violence By JULIE PACE The Associated Press SAN JOSE, Costa Rica – President Barack Obama on Friday cast Mexico as a nation ready to take “its rightful place in the world” and move past the drug battles and violence that have defined its relationship with the United States. He then headed to Costa Rica to prod Central American leaders to tackle those same issues more aggressively. Obama’s three-day visit to Mexico and Costa Rica is his first to Latin America since winning a second presidential term in an election in which he gained the support of Hispanic Americans by a large margin. His trip is being followed with great interest by Hispanics in the U.S. as well as in Mexico, Central America and farther to the south. In Mexico in particular, he tried to set a new course for

ties between the U.S. and its southern neighbor, eagerly promoting Mexico’s improving economy and its democracy. “A new Mexico is emerging,” Obama told a crowd of young people during a speech at Mexico City’s grand National Museum of Anthropology. “Mexico is also taking its rightful place in the world, on the world stage. Mexico is standing up for democracy not just here in Mexico but throughout the hemisphere. Mexico’s sharing expertise with neighbors across the Americas. When they face earthquakes or threats to their citizens or go to the polls to cast their votes, Mexico is there helping its neighbors.” Despite Obama’s rosy portrayal, Mexico’s high poverty rates have barely budged in recent years. Its economy grew by only about a 1 percent rate in the first three months of 2013 and is not

Mass killings reported in Sunni Syrian village By RYAN LUCAS The Associated Press BEIRUT – The bodies of the Syrian boys and young men in jeans and casual shirts were strewn along a blood-stained pavement, dying apparently where they fell. Weeping women moved among the dead, and one of them screamed, “Where are you, people of the village?” In the Syrian civil war’s latest alleged mass killing, activists said Friday that regime troops and gunmen from nearby Alawite areas beat, stabbed and shot at least 50 people in the Sunni Muslim village of Bayda. The slayings highlighted in the starkest terms the sectarian overtones of a conflict that has already killed more than 70,000 people. Details of the killings came to light as the Obama administration said it was again weighing whether to arm the rebels. Syria’s 2-year-old crisis has largely broken along sectarian lines: the Sunni ma-

jority forms the backbone of the rebellion, while President Bashar Assad’s minority Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam, anchors the regime’s security services and military officer corps. Other minorities, such as Christians, largely support Assad or stand on the sidelines, worried that the regime’s fall would bring about a more Islamist rule. The killings in Bayda fall against this backdrop. Tucked in the mountains outside the Mediterranean coastal city of Banias, the village is predominantly Sunni but is located in the Alawite ancestral heartland centered in the rugged region along the sea. Activists say fighting broke out in Bayda early Thursday and that at least six government troops were killed. Syrian forces backed by Alawite gunmen known as shabiha from the surrounding area returned in the afternoon and stormed the village, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

President Barack Obama greets people Friday as he arrives to speak at the anthropology museum in Mexico City, Mexico. creating anywhere near the 1 million jobs annually it needs to employ young Mexicans entering the workforce. Without jobs or opportunities to study, many young people have become easier prey for recruitment by drug cartels. The president conceded his own country’s role in the troubles that have plagued

Mexico, acknowledging that most guns used to commit crime in the country come from north of the border. A key cause for Mexico’s violence is the demand for illegal drugs in the U.S., Obama said, though he reiterated his opposition to legalization of such drugs, which some Latin American leaders have called for.

The Associated Press CHALDOVAR, Kyrgyzstan – An American military refueling plane carrying three crew members crashed Friday in the rugged mountains of Kyrgyzstan, the Central Asian nation where the U.S. operates an air base key to the war in Afghanistan. There was no word on the fate of the KC-135 crew as darkness fell and the search for them was suspended for the night. Cargo planes do not have ejector seats. Officials at the U.S. base said they had no information yet on the cause of the crash. The plane crashed at 2:55 p.m. near Chaldovar, a village 100 miles west of the U.S. Transit Center at Manas base outside the Kyrgyz capital, Bishkek. Pieces of the plane, including its tail, were scattered across in a grassy field bordered by mountains. The plane was on a refueling mission for Afghanistan

The front section of the aircraft has not yet been found, Kyrgyz Emergencies Minister Kubatbek Boronov told The Associated Press. He said searchers also have not found the flight recorders from the plane, which was badly burned in the crash. The search for the crew will resume Saturday morning and the crash site will remain under guard, Boronov said. One resident of the agricultural and sheep-grazing area said the plane exploded in flight. “I was working with my father in the field, and I heard an explosion. When I looked up at the sky I saw the fire. When it was falling, the plane split into three pieces,” Sherikbek Turusbekov told an AP reporter at the site.

States, the issue resonates deeply in Mexico, which has also seen deportations of its citizens from the U.S. rise dramatically under Obama. Obama sought to link his push for more economic development in Mexico with the immigration debate, saying, “The long-term solution to the challenge of illegal immigration is a growing and prosperous Mexico that creates more jobs and opportunities for young people here.” From Mexico, Obama headed to Costa Rica. He arrived in the capital of San Jose on a rainy afternoon but received a warm welcome from thousands of Costa Ricans who lined the road near the airport. Some waved American flags. Others held homemade signs, including one that said “Fired Up!” – a reference to his campaign slogan – in a much more demonstrative welcome than he had received in Mexico.

Still, the president pressed for the U.S. and Mexico to move beyond the “old stereotypes” of Mexico as a nation consumed by sensational violence and of the U.S. as a nation that seeks to impose itself on Mexico’s sovereignty. “In this relationship, there’s no senior partner or junior partner,” he said. “We are two equal partners.” The president has a domestic political incentive for trying to change America’s perception of Mexico. As Washington debates overhauling the nation’s immigration laws, Obama is seeking to convince the public and lawmakers that Mexico no longer poses the illegal immigration threat it once did. While the prospects for immigration overhaul by Congress remain uncertain, the president said he was optimistic the U.S. will change its patchwork laws this year. With about 6 million Mexicans illegally in the United

Israel launches airstrike into Syria By LOLITA C. BALDOR The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Israel launched an airstrike into Syria, apparently targeting a suspected weapons site, U.S. officials said Friday night. The strike occurred overnight Thursday into Friday, the officials told The Associated Press. It did not appear that a chemical weapons site was targeted, they said, and one official said the strike appeared to have hit a warehouse. The U.S. officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. Israel has targeted weapons in the past that it believes are being delivered to the Lebanon-based militant group Hezbollah. Earlier this week, Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah said his group would assist

“What we can say is that Israel is determined to prevent the transfer of chemical weapons or other game-changing weaponry by the Syrian regime to terrorists, specially to Hezbollah in Lebanon.” Aaron Sagui Israeli Embassy spokesman Syrian President Bashar Assad if needed in the effort to put down a 2-year-old uprising. Israeli Embassy spokesman Aaron Sagui would not comment Friday night specifically on the report of an Israeli strike into Syria. “What we can say is that Israel is determined

to prevent the transfer of chemical weapons or other game-changing weaponry by the Syrian regime to terrorists, specially to Hezbollah in Lebanon,” Sagui said in an email to the AP. In 2007, Israeli jets bombed a suspected nuclear reactor site along the Euphrates River in northeastern Syria, an attack that embarrassed and jolted the Assad regime and led to a buildup of the Syrian air defense system. Russia provided the hardware for the defense systems upgrade and continues to be a reliable supplier of military equipment to the Assad regime. Word of the new strike, first reported by CNN, came hours before President Barack Obama told reporters at a news conference in Costa Rica on Friday that he didn’t foresee a scenario in which the U.S. would send troops to Syria. More than 70,000 peoples have died and

hundreds of thousands have fled the country as the Assad regime has battled rebels. The Israeli strike also follows days of renewed concerns that Syria might be using chemical weapons against opposition forces. Obama has characterized evidence of the use of chemical weapons as a “game-changer” that would have “enormous consequences.” While the U.S. has been providing nonlethal aide to opposition forces in Syria, even stepping up that form of support in recent days, the Obama administration has resisted calls from some American lawmakers to arm the rebels or to work to establish a no-fly zone to aid the insurgency. On Thursday, however, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said the administration is rethinking its opposition to providing arms to the rebels.

Major concern among opponents is corruption • CASINO Continued from page A1 casino, it has the potential to be a destination in its own right,” said Jack Johnson, head of the Chicago Convention & Tourism Bureau. “Anytime you can add another destination to Chicago, it’s one more reason to come.” The bill calls for five new Illinois casinos, including one in Chicago, and airport slots. If airports want them, Chicago would be unique among U.S. airports outside Las Vegas. The plan would establish a Chicago Casino Development Authority, a board of mayoral appointees. The Illinois Gaming Board would have regulatory oversight, but most everything else, including contracts and day-to-day operations, falls to the city board. And there’s the potential rub. Some experts raised concerns at the Chicago setup when compared with urban casinos – in Philadelphia, Detroit and New Orleans – where the state board oversees everything. “That is a rare situation,” said Doug Walker, an economics professor at the College of Charleston. “Anytime you have a new group of regulators, there’s another potential area for corruption.” That very issue prompted state gaming board head Aaron Jaffe to question why Chicago needed its own board and resulted in a spat with lawmakers during a hearing on the bill last month. That followed similar questions from Quinn, who vetoed gambling bills over lack of ethical standards. It’s a theme he often brings up in a state where four of the last seven governors have gone to prison, including his predecessor Rod Blagojevich. Even opponents who typically raise concerns about

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel speaks during a luncheon April 10 in Chicago. A refined plan to add more casinos and slot machines in Illinois was approved by the Senate Wednesday, a proposal supporters believe is their best chance yet to expand gambling in the state.

“They’ve had scandals ... all kinds of scandals. You think it’s going to be different now?” Anita Bedell Head of the Illinois Church Action on Alcohol and Addiction Problems potential social costs – including increases in problem gambling – are also talking about ethical concerns. Partly that’s because it’s not hard to find corruption headlines in a city that’s been under a court order to root out political patronage or where federal data shows more than 1,500 public corruption convictions since the mid-1970s. “They’ve had scandals ... all kinds of scandals,” said Anita Bedell, head of the Illinois Church Action on Alcohol and Addiction Problems. “You think it’s going to be different now?” Lawmakers acknowledged some of those concerns in the proposal, adding a ban on political contributions

from the industry, an inspector general and, most recently, stating explicitly that the state board has final say over all regulation. But the Chicago board remains in place. “They’re like the business manager,” explained Democratic Sen. Terry Link, a bill sponsor. He says it’s not unlike other Chicago entities. The state created the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority, which owns McCormick Place, a convention center. Both the mayor and governor appoint members. Emanuel, who said he supports Quinn’s ethical oversight concerns, also defended a city board, saying it’s needed to protect Chicago taxpayers’ interests.

China emerges as force in drone warfare By CHRISTOPHER BODEEN The Associated Press BEIJING – Determined to kill or capture a murderous Mekong River drug lord, China’s security forces considered a tactic they’d never tried before: calling a drone strike on his remote hideaway deep in the hills of Myanmar. The attack didn’t happen – the man was later captured and brought to China for trial — but the fact that authorities were considering such an option cast new light on China’s unmanned aerial vehicle program, which has been quietly percolating for years and now appears to be moving into overdrive. Chinese aerospace firms have developed dozens of drones, known also as unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs. Many have appeared at air shows and military parades,

“My sense is that China is moving into largescale deployments of UAVs.” Ian Easton Co-author of recent report on Chinese drones including some that bear an uncanny resemblance to the Predator, Global Hawk and Reaper models used with deadly effect by the U.S. Air Force and CIA. Analysts say that although China still trails the U.S. and Israel, the industry leaders, its technology is maturing rapidly and on the cusp of widespread use for surveillance and combat strikes. “My sense is that China is moving into large-scale deployments of UAVs,” said Ian Easton, co-author of a recent report on Chinese drones for

the Project 2049 Institute security think tank. China’s move into largescale drone deployment displays its military’s growing sophistication and could challenge U.S. military dominance in the Asia-Pacific. It also could elevate the threat to neighbors with territorial disputes with Beijing, including Vietnam, Japan, India and the Philippines. China says its drones are capable of carrying bombs and missiles as well as conducting reconnaissance, potentially turning them into offensive weapons in a border conflict. China’s increased use of drones also adds to concerns about the lack of internationally recognized standards for drone attacks. The United States has widely employed drones as a means of eliminating terror suspects in Pakistan and the Arabian Peninsula.

The mayor boosted his support for the casino this week by pledging 100 percent of revenue will go to schools. The move comes as he proceeds with a controversial plan to close 54 schools and follows last year’s teachers strike. Quinn has said he’d support gambling after lawmakers address the state’s nearly $100 billion unfunded pension liability, the worst nationwide. The plan is expected to bring in roughly $1.2 billion in one-time revenue and about $270 million annually. But Quinn has been noncommittal on whether he’d sign the bill if House lawmakers approve it. He’s also reticent on specifics, like what he thinks of the Chicago board. Meanwhile, urban planners and tourism officials hope a Chicago casino boosts business. No specifics on a location have been publicly discussed, but some potential sites have been mentioned.

Peasley had natural ability for earning trust • PEASLEY Continued from page A1 morning and sat at his desk with coffee and the paper, longtime friend Cheryl Wormley of the Woodstock Independent said. “He lived and he died the way that he wanted to,” Wormley said. Peasley was on his way to lunch with his daughter, who was visiting from out of town, Friday when he felt short of breath. He died of suspected heart problems, Vogrinc said. Lunch was one of his favorite activities, friends remarked Friday. A Navy veteran of World War II, Peasley began his association with Shaw Publications in 1950. He had a natural ability to form relationships, which presented itself as an “old school” knack for earning trust from sources, friends and former co-workers said. “He had an amazing feel for who people were, their connection to the county,” Wormley said. “He was just given a wonderful gift of connecting with people.” “Even when he was retired and not getting around so much, he would always find some story,” added Kurt Begalka, who worked with Peasley at the defunct Woodstock Sentinel. “He would have the opportunity in the old school way of sitting down over a cup of coffee and finding the real skinny about stuff. It was an art.” Peasley developed an interest in photography through the years and was often seen with his camera. Begalka, now administrator of the McHenry County Historical

Society, recently has been going through decades of old negatives donated by Peasley. Woodstock Mayor Brian Sager first got to know Peasley during his time at the McHenry County Farm Bureau, where Peasley helped start a newsletter. He said he considered Peasley a “very close friend” and mentor for learning the community’s history. “Don is known as Mr. Woodstock,” Sager said. “That name is not awarded or given lightly.” “I truly will miss Don,” he added. “He was an individual that was so incredibly personable, and so interested in not just events or activities but was interested in how those things affected the lives of individuals.” Peasley’s knowledge of McHenry County made him a go-to for those seeking to learn about the county’s history, Begalka said. Friday, Begalka thought back to his first day on the job at the Sentinel, a day that would spark a lasting relationship. “Don rolls in and introduces himself with his personable way – and he was always there,” Begalka said. “That’s the thing that’s really weird for people is that he’s not going to be there anymore.”

Standing up for classmate The Northwest Herald Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs up: To the student at Marlowe Middle School in Lake in the Hills who held a 24-hour walkathon event Thursday and Friday to raise money for the Opening Doors With Teagan foundation, which strives to provide financial support for families affected by pediatric cancer. It was founded last year in honor of Teagan Haniszewski, 7, a first-grader at District 158’s Chesak Elementary, who spent the past five years successfully battling pediatric brain cancer that went into remission last year. It’s touching to see these middle-schoolers standing up for a fellow student. Thumbs down: To the Fox Valley Conference, for not reaching out to add Marian Central’s athletic teams. The FVC needs another team, with Johnsburg set to bolt for the Big Northern Conference. And Marian Central could use a new home, with at least seven schools leaving the Suburban Christian Conference. That number could rise in the near future. The move makes too much sense to ignore any longer. Thumbs up: To local firefighters and other emergency responders everywhere. Three local firefighters were treated at and released from Centegra Hospital – McHenry this week after suffering heat-related injuries while battling a fire that left two Crystal Lake homes uninhabitable and damaged three others. Each day that firefighters, police officers and other emergeny personnel go to work, they face potential danger to themselves for the sake of protecting the community. We can’t say thank you enough. Thumbs down: To people who are thoughtless enough to make bomb threats or threats of violence toward schools or public places requiring a large response from law enforcement and school officials. Such a threat was made Wednesday, forcing the disruption of classes at all schools in Alden-Hebron District 19 and causing needless anxiety for students and staff and wasting the time of police officers who had to verify that the threat was false. Anyone caught causing this kind of disruption should be made an example of in criminal court. Thumbs up: To Don Kopsell and Mike Lesperance. Kopsell, the outgoing Nunda Township highway commissioner, and Lesperance, the newly elected highway commissioner, put aside political differences to help residents in need during last month’s flooding. Although the two went after each other in a highly competitive election earlier this year, they came together for the good of the township to help its residents. Other elected officials could learn a lesson from these two.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Saddened by political climate To the Editor: I read the Northwest Herald and the Chicago Tribune daily, and I randomly read news via the Internet in the evening. I consider myself a Republican, although I will vote for whoever I believe is truly the best person to represent our country, state, etc. I recently read with interest the possible candidacy of Bill Daley for Illinois governor. Bill would be my vote for governor if the election were today. This then led me to think of the dismal situation we now have with almost all of our elected officials nationwide, and the tripe I read on the subject as letters to the editor. Registering guns to the point that equals my dog, defeated. Needing true health care reform, we see this as free birth control and trampling private organizations’ rights. Needing true tax reform to afford what’s really required, we sign pledges to never raise taxes. Our “leaders” all agree to a form of playground brinkmanship with the sequestration agreements; we blame bombings on the lack of security this caused. We have a local election; 16 percent of us turn out. Based on all of this, I feel 84

Palin is correct about Washington press’ ‘nerd prom’ WASHINGTON – We call it the “nerd prom,” hoping that a dose of irony will inoculate us. But there’s no use denying it: The White House Correspondents’ Association’s annual dinner is a deeply narcissistic event. I realize I’m jumping on the bandwagon late here – and any bandwagon that carries Tom Brokaw and Sarah Palin is by definition crowded. This year, it got so full that the current officers of the association started to sound like Miss America wishing for world peace: All they wanted to do, they said, was raise money for scholarships for aspiring journalists. An inordinate amount of time was spent congratulating themselves for having raised more than $100,000 for journalism students. The return on investment is laughable. The weekend costs media organizations millions of dollars. The emphasis on charity came after Brokaw elevated the criticism of the dinner by saying last year on “Meet the Press” that the evening reached a breaking point for him when Lindsay Lohan, invited by Fox

News, became the night’s center of attention. Not unexpectedly, Sarah Palin chimed in this year on Twitter that we were a bunch of clowns throwing ourselves a “pathetic” party. This emphasis on charity was always misplaced. I much preferred the original rationale for the dinner, which was for members of the press and government officials to share a meal in formal clothes and pinching footwear – the better for them to feel each other’s pain. Suspect to begin with, that purpose has long been subsumed by competition for celebrity guests who travel a red carpet, with groupies cheering them on and journalists from E! and “Entertainment Tonight” breathlessly interviewing them. Celebrities no longer have to have some thin connection to Washington. What connection could members of the cast of “Downton Abbey” possibly have? If we wonder why the evening induces rage in some quarters, look at the posse of Korean bodyguards surrounding Psy, whose dream is to be profiled on “60 Minutes” but who

Is that how recording artist and fragranceendorser Katy Perry (not to pick on her; she sat at Bloomberg’s table) wants to spend a Saturday night?

The dinner descended from self-parody to selfloathing this year in its search for attention, inviting the cast of A&E’s

“Duck Dynasty,” a show for those who like hunting fowl and hating Washington. By being the most ridiculous guests, they won the award for being most mentioned. The heart of the evening is a monologue by a hired comedian. (This year it was Conan O’Brien.) The president goes first, however, reading jokes written for him by speechwriters who could be doing other things. President Barack Obama, like George W. Bush before him, has mastered the self-deprecating joke. Even when the lines – from the president or the professional – aren’t funny, we all chuckle indiscriminately, because none of us wants to fail the exam or lose the student-council election. We fail to notice we have become what we used to criticize. The criticism that the dinner constitutes an exchange of favors between the political, celebrity and journalistic classes misses the point. The politicians see the dinner mostly as an obligation. The celebrities see it mostly as a disappointment. A few years ago, comedian Larry David attended. When he was asked

to come again he said no, adding that you have to be a dinner virgin to attend in the first place. The better criticism of the dinner is financial, not political: While hundreds of our colleagues have lost their jobs and news budgets have been slashed, we are spending a king’s ransom to create the illusion that we are important. For many years, I wanted so badly to be invited to the dinner that, long after I got on all the right lists, I was blind to how earnest and self-congratulatory it was. So depending on how you look at it, my history either undermines my credibility or bolsters my authority. (I prefer to take the latter view.) Either way, my conclusion is the same: More than anything else, what this weekend shows is that we in the news media have forgotten our mission to afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted. Please, next year, could we take the money we spend on parties and give it to causes worthier than our own?

FIRE DAMAGES LOCAL BUSINESS PRAIRIE GROVE – Officials are investigating the cause of a fire that damaged a Prairie Grove business Friday morning. Firefighters were called to Craiger Custom Design, 2510 Route 176, around 4:30 a.m. for a report of a structure fire, according to the Nunda Rural Fire Protection District. Crews arrived to find smoke coming from the business. The fire was upgraded to a second alarm because of a lack of fire hydrants in that area, as well as no sprinkler system inside the business, fire officials said. More than 20 area departments assisted with the blaze. The fire was under control in about an hour. The interior and exterior of the building was damaged. No one were injured during the incident. The investigation is ongoing.

Burn notice on materials Officials: Shingles more combustible in fire near Crystal Lake By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com The fire Wednesday that destroyed one house and damaged four others near Crystal Lake burned the cedar shake on most of the houses. Those shingles are more combustible than other types of roofing materials, fire officials say. Firefighters have said embers from the destroyed house at 3217 Carrington Drive blew onto neighboring houses. The fire remains under investigation by the Crystal Lake Fire Rescue Department, the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office and the Office of the Illinois State Fire Marshal. Crystal Lake Deputy Fire Chief Paul DeRaedt said cedar shake shingles, which can be treated to help prevent fires, are good for running water off a roof, but after a few years of being in the sun, they are more at risk of burning easily.

“It certainly contributed to the spread of the fire from the embers,” DeRaedt said. The house at 3222 Carrington Drive was left uninhabitable after the fire damaged its cedar shake roof, which extended into the attic. DeRaedt said some of the houses that had roof damage had multiple spots burning. However, materials used in home construction sometimes make it difficult when it comes to fighting fires. Firefighters say newer and lighter building materials can hold up a lot of weight, but they also can burn faster. “It doesn’t take long to burn before it fails,” McHenry Township Fire Protection Chief Tony Huemann said. Lightweight floors made out of composite materials and trusses being used in houses have become more common.

The fire that destroyed a house in unincorporated McHenry County near Crystal Lake had cedar shake shingles. Those are more combustible than other types of shingles. Also certain types of building materials can be more flammable, but are used because they are good building materials, cheaper and can hold up the necessary weight.

$9K IN DAMAGE AT JOHNSBURG HOME JOHNSBURG – A Johnsburg home was damaged during a fire Friday morning, according to the McHenry Township Fire Protection District. Crews were called to the 1800 block of West May Avenue for a report of a structure fire around 6 a.m., according to a news release. Firefighters arrived and found smoke coming from the second-floor windows of a two-story home in that area. A partially extinguished fire was later confined to a second-floor bedroom, the news release stated. There was minor smoke damage throughout the second floor. The damaged was estimated at about $9,000. Residents at the home were treated for smoke inhalation at the scene. A smoke detector alerted occupants of the fire, authorities said. The fire is believed to have been accidental. The investigation is ongoing.

Port Barrington bar hurt by flooding By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com

HUNTLEY – The District 158 administration will be putting more tablets in students’ hands after recently revealing plans to expand its digital curriculum program to early elementary and middle school classrooms. The Huntley school district’s emerging “One-to-One” digital curriculum replaces traditional textbooks and allows students to access online programs and lessons through their own tablet, provided by the district. Teachers used the tablets for the first time during this school year to teach many third-, fourth- and fifth-graders at Martin Elementary literacy lessons. The success of the program encouraged administrators to follow through with their plan to expand the program to three other schools next year, Chief Academic Officer Mike Moan said. “We are finding that younger kids are the true digital natives,” Moan said. “They can use the technology more easily, and it’s up to us to make sure we are meeting their needs academically.” Moan revealed the tablet expansion plan to district board members during a committee meeting Thursday. The expansion would put nearly 2,300 tablets in the hands of students at Conley and Legee elementary schools.

See DISTRICT 158, page B2 PORT BARRINGTON – The staff at the Broken Oar Marina Bar & Grill held its breath as water from last month’s flood began to cover the parking lot. Much of the restaurant’s parking lot, at 614 Rawson Bridge Road in Port Barrington, was covered with water. If a couple of more inches of rain fell, the restaurant would be in danger of flooding. The water never made it high enough to enter the building, but flooding elsewhere on Rawson Bridge Road prevented many wouldbe patrons from getting to the restaurant. “It crippled our business,” said Bonnie Miske, general manager at the Broken Oar. “A lot of people from the west couldn’t reach us.” Miske said the bar had two-thirds less business than it normally would this time of year due to the flooded road, which was closed from April 18 to Wedneday. That, combined with a misleading report by WGN News that implied the business was closed, made for a stressful two weeks, Miske said.

Annual Walk MS is set for Sunday By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com

Jim Dallke – jdallke@shawmedia.com

The Broken Oar Marina Bar & Grill, which is located along the Fox River in Port Barrington, was affected by last month’s flood. “It crippled our business,” said Bonnie Miske, general manager at the Broken Oar. “A lot of people from the west couldn’t reach us.” “WGN posted a picture of the closed road on Facebook and implied that we were closed, too,” she said. “Word on the street was that we were closed.” The Broken Oar is another example of how the recent flood has wreaked havoc on McHenry County. Many residents and businesses are looking at months of recovery and

cleanup. Information on flood insurance, low-interest loan programs and FAQs for people affected by the flood can be found at www.co.mchenry. il.us. “We survived,” Miske said. “We’re OK. It’s the residents I really feel for. It was the worst flood I’ve ever seen.”

LAKE IN THE HILLS – Katie Parkhurst’s family has been touched by multiple sclerosis. First her uncle, Bob Thornton, died of MS. Now her cousin, Marylynn Layman of Cary lives with the condition. So Parkhurst, of McHenry, wants to help those dealing with the disease. For the eighth consecutive year. Parkhurst and her family members will walk in the annual Walk MS event. The event will be at 9 a.m. Sunday at Sunset Park. It is one of 11 sites around the state for the annual walk, which raises money for research in to multiple sclerosis, finding a cure and developing medication.

A man uses a hose to spray his cedar shake shingle roof with water after five houses caught on fire Wednesday in a subdivision near Crystal Lake. Cedar shake shingles are more combustible than other types of shingles. Also certain types of building materials can be more flammable, but are used because they are good building materials, cheaper and can hold up the necessary weight.

Area of blaze lacked fire hydrants • FIRES Continued from page B1 “They’re very strong and good materials for ... building new homes,” Cary Fire Protection District Chief Jeff Macko said. “[However] in a fire, they fail rapidly. Those are some of our biggest issues with new construction. Those are things that shorten the time span a fire department can react to a fire.” Previously, construction included conventional solid wood and solid lumber when putting together houses, Macko said. Huemann said there is the added challenge of more petroleum-based products in homes. When fires start, those

products burn faster and easier. “It goes back to the combustible material inside your house ... and creates a hot fire load,” Huemann said. Patrick Mullen, the new chief at the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District, said homes with large open spaces can lead to fires spreading quicker. Having separations in a house or building, such as walls or fire doors, buys time for people to escape and to minimize the spread of a fire. “Separations keep the fire contained so it’s smaller when firefighters get there, protects occupants, gives them time to get out,” Mullen said. Mullen said any building

material of a combustible nature can light up when it’s exposed to fire. “You address that with separations,” Mullen said. Another challenge in Wednesday’s fire was a lack of fire hydrants because it was an unincorporated area. Fire departments have to keep water in tankers ready for those possible calls. In Cary, the fire district has about 3,000 gallons of water in a tanker, which it sends out for rural fires. “We do have a lot of water on wheels,” Macko said. No matter where someone lives, and regardless of the construction of a house, there are ways to protect a home. Huemann said thicker dry-

wall and non-prefabricated trusses would help in slowing down fires. But having smoke detectors or fire alarms on every level of a house, and possibly having them interconnected, would help enhance safety and lead to a quicker response. On Friday, a fire broke out at a house in Johnsburg with an interconnected fire alarm system. The alarm went off when a fire started and alerted the residents, who were able to use a fire extinguisher to minimize damage, Huemann said. Also, regularly changing batteries in smoke detectors is a simple thing to do to keep a house safe, Huemann said.

The event will benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Greater Illinois Chapter. “It’s one of our largest fundraisers,” said Kelley Moran, who is a marketing and community engagement associate for the MS society. So far the Lake in the Hills event has raised more than $64,000 for this year, with more expected to come in on Sunday, Moran said. “Usually the weather is getting nicer and people are getting outside,” Moran said. “Hopefully we’ll have some good weather and sun.” The event includes two routes: a 1-mile route and a 2.4-mile route. For Parkhurst and her family, dealing with MS was difficult. For many years Thornton had symptoms, but it took awhile to figure what was going on, Parkhurst said. Once he was diagnosed with MS, “it took awhile for our family to accept it and how to best deal with it,” Parkhurst said. Parkhurst, who works as a planner for the village of Algonquin, said Layman

The Walk MS event is scheduled for 9 a.m. Sunday at Sunset Park at Albrecht and Miller roads in Lake in the Hills. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m. For information, visit walkmsillinois.org. was diagnosed more than 10 years ago but still can walk. However, when Layman participates in the walk, she uses a wheelchair. In fact, Laymen’s family members take turns pushing her around in the wheelchair during the walk, Parkhurst said. “It’s important to me to spend time with her,” Parkhurst said. “It reaffirms why I’m doing [the walk].” Parkhurst said people still can attend even if they’re not registered. The event is a way to bond with the community and see the support network of people who have been affected by MS. “To me, the walk is very heartfelt,” Parkhurst said. “It’s joyous how many people are there to support MS [research], and sobering. There’s so many people there who know someone with MS.”

Huntley gets $40K for new scoreboard • DISTRICT 158 Continued from page B1 The second phase of the district’s digital curriculum expansion will cost $1.156 million and be paid through money that would otherwise be spent on traditional textbooks and outfitting computer labs. The administration also decided to include the incoming class of sixth-graders at Marlowe Middle School in its expansion plans. The move allows this year’s fifth-graders at Martin to continue using tablets, Moan said. Teachers at Conley, Legee, Martin and Marlowe also will use the tablets to teach additional subjects, such as math, science and social studies, Moan said.

The expansion also means the youngest students at District 158 will be using tablets to learn. The tablets will be integrated at a slower pace with Legee’s kindergartners, first- and second-graders – the youngest grade levels to use the “One-to-One” program. “The community has embraced it,” Moan said. “The students love it. The teachers love it. We are very excited about the year we had at Martin, and we are excited to be expanding it.” Administrators will look to expand the program to more elementary and middle schools in 2014-15, with an eye toward using it at Huntley High School in 2016, Moan said. Board members also learned this week that con-

struction crews soon will start excavating and installing drainage along the high school football field. Crews will start the work in the coming weeks, before installing synthetic football turf and extra stadium seating. The stadium renovation is a part of the district’s ongoing effort to expand the high school to accommodate 3,000 students by 2019. The high school’s Athletic Boosters Club handed the board an unexpected $40,000 check in donations this week to pay for a new football stadium scoreboard, Board President Don Drzal said. Board members also will select bids next month to construct a new irrigation system for the school’s soccer and baseball fields, Drzal said.

I am waiting for the colorful explosion of May ﬂowers that these past few weeks of rain should bring to our yards and gardens. On the drive to work this week, I have noticed the lawns are getting very green and there are a few magnolias in bloom. What else have these showers brought?

Mud – Funny title for a movie this time of year. This new Matthew McConaughey movie promises to be a good gritty drama that both the Golfer in My Life and I can enjoy; he loves the South and I ﬁnd McConaughey to be very attractive, even when he is wearing a shirt. There has been such a drought in theaters since January I don’t think we have seen a movie since “Zero Dark Thirty.” Zach, my fellow Planit-ite and movie fanatic, tells me there are lot of good ones coming out in the next few months. Let’s hope so.

Walking the Dog – When the weather was so beautiful the beginning of this week, the Golfer and I took the dog for a few walks. This used to be a nightly ritual three or four times a week but with golf and Pilates, it fell by the wayside the past few years. I forgot how much he and I can get ﬁgured out when strolling the neighborhood, just past dusk. With no phones, twitter or TV, we actually have to listen to each other; sometimes we tackle serious stuff and sometimes it is just nice to chat.

Please note; we try to be as accurate as possible with our events but things are subject to change without notice. Check the listing and confirm before heading to an event.

Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies - I think I am going to branch out of my usual book genre and go for some historical fiction. In reviews I have read, it seems that Hilary Mantel’s books about Thomas Cromwell, Anne Boleyn and Henry the VIII are quite the commitment, with both time and brain power. But this follows my pattern of always reading very serious books during the summertime; nothing light and breezy for me. Completing a Sudoku Book - I have to let my nerd flag fly on this one. I purchased “Will Shortz Presents Dangerous Sudoku: 200 Very Hard Puzzles” back in November and am close to finishing every fiendish puzzle in the book. Armed with mechanical pencils and a Pentel Hi-Polymer Eraser, I have attempted every single one and am now circling back to tackle the ones I still haven’t solved. To think that I contemplated spending the $8 on it, wondering if they were really that tough. I am also looking forward to getting the grill going, finishing “Homeland,” hopefully watching the Clippers in the second round of the NBA playoffs, going for margaritas with the work girls and heading up to Wisconsin for BobFest again. Remember this oldie? What do May flowers bring? Pilgrims, of course! Try it out on the kids and grandkids. They’ll love it! Have a good weekend. Autumn

“The Croods” HH½

“Olympus Has Fallen” HH

STARRING: The voices of Nicolas Cage, Ryan Reynolds, Emma Stone and Catherine Keener PLOT: The world’s first prehistoric family goes on a road trip to an uncharted and fantastic world. RATING: PG for some scary action TIME: 1 hour, 32 minutes VERDICT: Cavemen – they’re just like us! – or so “The Croods” seems to be saying with its familiar mix of generational clashes, coming-of-age milestones and generally relatable laughs. The animated adventure features a strong, star-studded cast and dazzles visually in wondrously colorful, vibrant 3-D, but the script doesn’t pop off the screen quite so effectively. The simplistic message here is: Trying new things is good. It’s a useful notion for kids in the crowd to chew on, but their older companions may be longing for something more substantive. Still, “The Croods” is both brisk and beautiful, and should be sufficiently entertaining for family audiences for whom few such options exist these days. And it might be especially resonant with young female viewers, with a strong, resourceful teenage girl at its center named Eep (voiced by Emma Stone in her usual charming rasp). It’s the prehistoric era, and while the rest of Eep’s family prefers the comforting safety of hiding fearfully inside a cave, with only sporadic outings for group hunts, she longs to see what’s outside those stone walls. Her dad, Grug (Cage), is especially protective, neurotically worrying about every possible unknown and urging the same sort of apprehension in everyone else. But everything changes when Eep escapes and meets a guy named Guy (Reynolds). – Christy

STARRING: Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, Morgan Freeman and Angela Bassett PLOT: Disgraced former presidential guard Mike Banning finds himself trapped inside the White House in the wake of a terrorist attack. Using his inside knowledge, Banning works with national security to rescue the president from his kidnappers. RATING: R for strong violence and language throughout TIME: 2 hours VERDICT: The first of two similarly themed action dramas set for this year (“White House Down” arrives in June), “Olympus Has Fallen” will put to the test the question of whether American audiences are ready, 12 years after 9-11, to watch, strictly as disposable popcorn entertainment, a film in which the United States and some of its most prominent landmarks are devastated by foreign terrorists. The answer almost undoubtedly will be yes, as the tough-guy former agent played by Butler gets to kick a whole lot of butt while trying to rescue the president. Although this is the sort of film in which the fate of the world hinges, when all is said and done, on the outcome of a one-on-one martial arts contest, director Antoine Fuqua’s notably bloody child of “Die Hard” still generates a fair amount of tension and produces the kind of nationalistic outrage that rock-ribbed Americans will feel in their guts. Foreign revenue should be hefty as well, especially in countries where many viewers will get a thrill watching Washington get the sort of treatment usually reserved for places like Baghdad and Kabul.

“42” HHH STARRING: Chadwick Boseman, Harrison Ford, Christopher Meloni, Nicole Beharie PLOT: Jackie Robinson (Boseman) breaks the race barrier in Major League baseball when general manager Branch Rickey (Ford) puts him on the Brooklyn Dodgers’ roster. Robinson endures racism from the stands and in his own clubhouse during his historic rookie season. RATING: PG-13 for thematic elements including language TIME: 2 hours, 1 minute VERDICT: Writer-director Brian Helgeland (who won an Oscar for his “L.A. Confidential” script) tells Jackie Robinson’s incredible story in a fastpaced and entertaining style, even if Helgeland’s history lessons are aimed at a middle-school level. Adults may appreciate the sentiment but get antsy waiting for material pitched at them. Screen newcomer Boseman is phenomenal as Robinson, capturing the ballplayer’s tortured soul as well as his prowess on the field. Ford turns himself into a character actor and clearly enjoys himself, even though he does ham it up a bit. Worth seeing, but it wears its nobility too conspicuously. – Jeffrey Westhoff,

“G.I. Joe: Retaliation” H½ STARRING: Dwayne Johnson, D.J. Cotrona, Adrianne Palicki, Channing Tatum PLOT: After the G.I. Joe team is betrayed and ambushed on a mission to Pakistan, the three survivors (Johnson, Cotrona and Palicki) vow to find the Cobra villains responsible and stop their plan for world domination. RATING: PG-13 for intense sequences of combat violence, brief sensuality, language and martial arts action TIME: 1 hour, 39 minutes VERDICT: “Retaliation” is a sequel that doesn’t want to be a sequel. It jettisons the original movie’s comic book sensibilities and abandons almost its entire cast but brings back its star (Tatum) only to kill him off in the first act. With its sometimes brutal tone, the sequel basically transitions the concept of G.I. Joe from a team of military heroes to another action franchise for Johnson, who might as well go back to calling himself The Rock. One other Joe, the silent ninja Snake Eyes (Ray Park) does return in a convoluted subplot that plays like another, slightly better, movie. Near the end the villains destroy a major city in a show of force, and it is appalling that none of the good guys bats an eye over what would rank as one of the greatest disasters in world history. Apparently, if it happens in a country that isn’t America, it doesn’t count. – Jeffrey Westhoff, Northwest

RATINGS

HHHH - Excellent HHH - Recommended HH - Not recommended H - Awful calling himself the Mandarin (Kingsley) threatens Tony’s girlfriend (Paltrow) and brings the war to Tony’s front door. RATING: PG-13 for intense sequences of science-fiction action and violence throughout, and brief suggestive content TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: Superhero series usually lose their footing in the third outing, but director Shane Black, replacing Jon Favreau, avoids the third-movie curse by crafting a movie much different, and much more personal, than the first two. For most of the story, Downey had to prove his heroism without Iron Man’s armor. Kingsley’s villain is odd, but that makes him more chilling. As big as the action sequences are, Downey commands the film. – Jeffrey Westhoff, North-

west Herald

“Mud” HH½ STARRING: Matthew McConaughey, Tye Sheridan, Jacob Lofland PLOT: Two teenage boys encounter a fugitive and form a pact to help him evade the bounty hunters on his trail and to reunite him with his true love. RATING: PG-13 for some violence, sexual references, language, thematic elements and smoking TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: The story of a sympathetic fugitive who forges a bond with two teenage boys near a mighty river down South, “Mud” is shot through with traditional qualities of American literature and drama. Jeff Nichols’ much-anticipated follow-up to his breakthrough second feature “Take Shelter” feels less adventurous and unsettling but remains a well-carpentered piece of work marked by some fine performances and resilient thematic fiber. – Todd McCarthy, The

– Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter

“Oz the Great and Powerful” HHH STARRING: James Franco, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz PLOT: A tornado drops a two-bit carnival magician (Franco) into an enchanted land where he is mistaken for a wizard and thrust into a power struggle among three witches (Wil-

liams, Kunis, Weisz). RATING: PG for brief mild language and sequences of action and scary images TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: Sam Raimi directs this reverent prequel to 1939’s “The Wizard of Oz” with his usual verve and visual dynamism. From its opening frame, it joins the handful of live-action films worth seeing in 3-D. The first half of the story is superior, particularly when the wizard gains a pair of traveling companions, a timid flying monkey voiced by Zach Braff and a feisty little china doll. These are Gollum-quality CGI characters. When the story shifts to action, spectacle and special effects, it still is dazzling to watch, but it loses heart (and perhaps some courage and brains). –

“Pain & Gain” HH

“42”

STARRING: Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson, Anthony Mackie, Tony Shalhoub PLOT: Three Miami bodybuilders (Wahlberg, Johnson and Mackie) with low IQs and lower scruples kidnap a millionaire sub shop owner (Shalhoub) and plan to steal his money and property. When they fail to kill him, things spin terribly out of control. RATING: R for bloody violence, crude sexual content, nudity, language throughout and drug use TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: After nearly 20 years of blockbuster budgets, giant robots, islands full of clones and wall-towall visual effects, Michael Bay makes a deliberate attempt to return to the low-budget, low-tech days of his first (and best) movie, “Bad Boys.” He may have cut the budget, but the excesses of his crass views and boorish humor remain. Nearly every character is treated as an object of ridicule, the victims more so than the criminals. The true story is so twisted that Bay can’t screw it up completely, and Johnson gives a nuanced comic performance amid the bedlam. – Jeffrey

“IRON MAN 3”

Hollywood Reporter

STARRING: Tom Cruise, Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Riseborough, Morgan Freeman PLOT: A maintenance worker (Cruise) left behind to repair robots on a post-Apocalyptic Earth sees a spacecraft drop from the sky. He discovers a life pod containing a woman (Kurylenko) who has been in suspended animation for 60 years, and he recognizes her from his dreams. RATING: PG-13 for science-fiction action violence, brief strong language and some sexuality and nudity TIME: 2 hours, 6 minutes VERDICT: This science-fiction opus comes from the same man, Joseph Kosinski, who directed “TRON: Legacy.” Whatever else you can say about him, Kosinski is a genius at building fantastic worlds for the screen. The production design and special effects are outstanding, creating a chilling dystopian wasteland contrasted by the shining futuristic architecture of Cruise’s existence. Typical of heroes in post-apocalyptic science fiction, Cruise is living a lie. As the truth is revealed to him, the plot becomes more and more implausible as it deploys nearly every plot twist ever used in science fiction. The first hour is amazing to see, though. British actress Andrea Riseborough and Morgan Freeman co-star. – Jeffrey

Dad’s hands-on approach makes girl uncomfortable Dear Abby: I’m a 13-yearold girl who has been trying to give my father a second chance. I was taken away from my parents when I was 8 because they were on drugs. I haven’t seen my father for three years, but now that he’s living with my grandparents and me, I decided to give him a second chance. He has been very “hand-sy” with me – giving me massages, kissing my cheek – and this all makes me very uncomfortable. I thought it was because he hasn’t seen me in a while, but today as I was leaving to go to my mom’s, he slapped my butt as I walked out the door. Now I’m scared. I spend

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips a lot of the day at home with him alone. I don’t want things to get out of hand. Any advice?

– Worried In Delaware Dear Worried: Your father has lost three years with you. He may not realize that his “little girl” is no longer a child. That is why it is important you TELL him what he’s doing makes you uncomfortable. You also should tell your mother and grandparents about what’s happening and that it scares you. You do not

have to tolerate unwanted contact, and if it persists, report it to a teacher or counselor at school or contact me again. Dear Abby: I have a dilemma. I work in a small high school in a student support position. Girls come into my office who are pregnant and excited about it! Telling them congratulations for putting themselves in this position seems counterproductive, or like I am endorsing this choice. I don’t. No high school girls – or boys, for that matter – should put themselves in a position to be a parent when they themselves aren’t fully grown and independent. I feel like saying,

“You have ruined your life” instead, but I hold my tongue. What do you suggest? – Don’t

Want To Encourage Them In Illinois Dear Don’t Want To Encourage: Your job is to support the students, not to condemn or endorse their predicament. Telling a pregnant girl she has ruined her life isn’t helpful. What you need to do is encourage the girl to get a diploma while she can. Too many girls fail to complete their high school education when they have a baby, and it impedes their ability to provide for themselves and their child because they are suited only for

minimum-wage jobs. If you are enthusiastic about helping them, your positive attitude may be contagious and inspire them to succeed. Dear Abby: I wrote you a short time ago about my marital problems, but I have to share this with you. My husband, who walked out on me, went to a counselor for a session. Then we went together, and he learned a few things about me and himself. He is coming back, and we are going to work harder at our marriage. We both recognize there were places where we needed to work together more, that he doesn’t need to be afraid to talk to me and I

can be pretty understanding. Thank you so much for being there, Abby. I know you always recommend talking to a counselor before doing anything rash, and you are so right. It made all the difference. – Grateful Wife In

Arizona Dear Grateful: I’m pleased counseling helped to open the clogged lines of communication between you and your husband. While it may seem expensive, it’s far cheaper than a divorce can be, both emotionally and financially.

Flush baby’s tear ducts to prevent infections that keep coming back Dear Dr. K: My infant already has had three tear duct infections. What’s causing them, and how can I prevent another one? Dear Reader: At the inner corner of each eye is a tiny little sac where tears are made. Some of the fluid bathes the eye. The rest of the tears travel through the tear duct, which empties in the nose. That’s why, when you cry and make a lot of tears, you also get a stuffy nose and have to blow your nose to clear it out. A tear duct can get infected if it becomes blocked and bacteria collect in the ducts or the lacrimal (tear) sac. The blockage might be from some grains of dried eye discharge – the stuff “Mr. Sandman” creates at night and we discover upon awakening. Tear duct infections can happen at any age, but they are most common in infants. That’s because the center of the duct is very narrow, which makes it more easily obstructed. As the child grows, the passageway widens. As a result, most children outgrow this problem by the time they are 1 year old. Tear duct infections can

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff cause pain, redness and swelling. Your infant also may have excessive tearing, pus or discharge from the eye, and a fever. If a tear duct infection is not treated quickly, it can become more difficult to cure. The infection should be treated when there is redness or fever and tears become cloudy. Antibiotics, taken by mouth, are the standard treatment; the infection should go away quickly with antibiotic therapy. Your doctor also may prescribe antibiotic ointment or eye drops. If the infection does not respond to antibiotics, or if infections keep returning, it’s a sign there is some obstruction in the narrow tear duct. To eliminate that obstruction, the doctor guides a thin wire through the tear duct to clear out any blockage. Rarely, a more extensive surgical procedure is necessary. There are some simple things you can do to reduce

the chance your baby will develop another tear duct infection. The first is to promote the drainage of tears each day. Be sure to wash your hands thoroughly before you begin. First, place your index finger sideways along the bony ridge beneath your infant’s eye, with your finger pointing toward the top of the nose. Firmly, but gently, apply pressure with your fingertip between the eye and nose. This pressure will compress and empty the tear sac. The tears will empty onto the surface of the eye, and also they will flush the duct below. After this, press a warm, clean, wet washcloth to the same area for a minute or two. By flushing the tear ducts daily, you reduce the chance the duct will become blocked. That, in turn, reduces the risk of infection. By the time your baby becomes a year old, this risk will greatly diminish anyway. Then you won’t need to flush the tear ducts daily.

CNN: Kurtz to address his own issues

Usher takes on Sugar Ray Leonard Grammy-winning singer Usher believes his dancing skills will help him in his upcoming role as Sugar Ray Leonard in “Hands of Stone,” a new boxing film about the great brawler Roberto Duran. Usher said he has been preparing to play Leonard – a fighter with fast hands, smooth feet and a wide smile – for more than a year and still needs to lose nearly 25 pounds before shooting begins in October. The movie is based on Duran, a world champion in four weight divisions over a career that spanned five decades. Duran, whose nickname was “Hands of Stone,” rose from the slums of Panama to defeat an unbeaten Leonard in 1980 and claim the WBC welterweight title, only to lose the rematch several months later in the infamous “no mas” fight. Usher said he was honored to play Leonard in the film. “You couldn’t find a more stylized boxer than Sugar Ray Leonard,” Usher said by telephone. “He was an incredible motion guy, the way he moved around the ring, and I think my dancing will make it easier for me to pick up his moves. I’ve been working on familiarizing myself with the ring, sparring and just understanding how to move in the ring.” The role will mean dropping some weight. Usher said he’s currently about 172 pounds but will need to get down to about 150. The cast also includes Robert De Niro as Duran’s Hall of Fame trainer, Ray Arcel. Edgar Ramirez, who was recently in “Zero Dark Thirty,” will play Duran.

CNN says Howard Kurtz will address his mistaken story on gay basketball player Jason Collins on “Reliable Sources,” the weekly media criticism show he hosts on the news network. Kurtz also worked for website The Daily Beast, which retracted one of Howard Kurtz his stories that suggested Collins had hid a previous engagement to a woman when the basketball player came out as gay. In fact, Collins had disclosed the engagement. Kurtz and The Daily Beast parted ways Thursday after the retraction.

Lindsay Lohan enters another rehab Lindsay Lohan has checked into a rehab and will not face a probation violation for leaving another treatment facility after a few minutes, a prosecutor said Friday. Santa Monica Chief Deputy City Attorney Terry White said he received confirmation Lohan had checked in to a rehab facility and he is satisfied with her location. He declined to say where Lohan was receiving treatment, but a source close to the actress who was not authorized to speak publicly said she checked in to the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, Calif.

The “Liz & Dick” star is required to spend 90 days in rehab as part of a plea deal in a misdemeanor case filed after a June car accident.

Witherspoon pleads no contest, fined Reese Witherspoon pleaded no contest and paid a $100 fine after berating a state trooper in Atlanta while her husband was given a sobriety test, an embarrassing exchange caught on a dashboard camera after the usually squeaky-clean Hollywood star had what she called “one too many” glasses of wine. Witherspoon’s exchange with the officer had already been outlined in a police report, but the video offered a rare glimpse at the actress unfiltered. Witherspoon, who has built a wholesome professional image, apologized shortly after her arrest, saying she was “deeply embarrassed.”

Hip-hop producer AraabMUZIK shot Abraham Orellana, the hip-hop producer known as AraabMUZIK, has been shot and is hospitalized. Orellana’s publicist said in a statement late Thursday he was “currently alive and well” after being shot Wednesday night, noting he was in the wrong place at the wrong time while hanging out with friends. Police are investigating. The statement said he was in his neighborhood when he was shot, but didn’t specify a city. Orellana’s hometown is Providence, R.I.

Series stays clean, suits Blackhawks CHICAGO – Duncan Keith looked at me as if I had a couple of screws loose. Keith might have been on to something, but that was not the point. Why, I wondered, did so many violent hits emerge in the Stanley Cup playoffs? And how could the Blackhawks avoid that sort of nastiness while playing hard-nosed hockey at the same time? “Hockey is a physical game,” Keith said. “You have to be able to hit and take hits.” I hustled out of there before Keith could check me into a garbage can. The Blackhawks delivered and received a few hits during a 5-2 win against the Minnesota Wild, which gave Game 3 them a 2-0 series lead in the Western Conference quarBlackhawks at Minnesota, 2 p.m. terfinals. A sellout crowd of Sunday, NBC, AM- 22,012 partied late into the night as the Hawks’ magic 560. Hawks lead number for a championship series, 2-0. dropped to 14. Some Hawks fans might feel compelled to fret, but Inside it was a great effort by the The Blackhawks Hawks.

Patrick Sharp added two more to seal the win, and Corey Crawford was occasionally spectacular in net with 26 stops on 28 shots. Equally important, the Hawks and Wild stayed away from nonsense playoff violence. The first-round series has included several crunching hits, and more will be on the way as the Wild become desperate to salvage their season. But the medical stretcher in the west tunnel of the United Center has remained unused, and no ambulance has had to turn out on to Damen Avenue. That wasn’t the case last season when Phoenix Coyotes forward Raffi Torres knocked Marian Hossa unconscious with a horrifying hit in which he leaped off of his skates to drill the Hawks’ forward.

WOLVES RIDE STREAK PR has 11 consecutive shutouts after 1-2-1 start By PATRICK MASON

Preps online

pmason@shawmedia.com JC Brown wanted his Prairie Ridge girls soccer team to play more aggressive defensively, but it took them time to learn. The Wolves started the season 1-2-1. They’ve been perfect on defense since, running off 11 consecutive shutouts while grabbing sole possession of first place in the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division. “It’s kind of crazy,” Brown

• Updated Power Rankings in baseball, softball and girls soccer • A new blog entry from The Rant, who says Marian Central belongs in the Fox Valley Conference now more than ever Find these features and more at McHenryCountySports.com. said. “When you look back, you almost want to lose games early on rather than now so you can figure out what you need to

work on and make changes.” Brown changed things in the fall with the boys team and it caught on quickly, but it took longer with the girls team because poor weather prevented them from being able to go outside. Some key issues such as playing laid back, not applying constant defensive pressure and marking up took longer to fix because spacing was an issue in limited gym space and the speed of the game was different inside. Eventually, the Wolves were

forcing opposing players to make quick decisions, which makes opponents play with their heads down and can lead to turnovers. During the streak, they have defeated strong conference teams such as Crystal Lake South and its tough defense, a physical Cary-Grove team that likes to bump players off the ball and score in bunches with athletic forwards and solid McHenry and Jacobs teams.

ALYSHEBA STAKES

Take Charge Indy runs away from pack By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com Take Charge Indy trainer Patrick Byrne admitted last week that running at Friday’s Alysheba Stakes wouldn’t be easy. But deep down, he felt the 4-year-old colt had it in him to win at Churchill Downs. Byrne liked the way Take Charge Indy had been running strong this spring and knew Churchill was a place the horse owned by Marengo residents Chuck and Maribeth Sandford felt ex-

tremely comfortable. Take Charge Indy looked right at home in the $339,000 Grade 2 race, bursting ahead of the field with Rosie Napavrik aboard in the 11/16-mile race that was part of the undercard Rosie for the Kentucky Oaks. Napavrik Take Charge Indy finished in 1:47.47, winning by six lengths. The win came a year after Take

Charge Indy placed 19th in the Kentucky Derby, when he chipped a bone in his left front ankle. After missing five months, Take Charge Indy placed third in the Donn and second in the Skip Away Stakes in Florida, building up to Friday’s victory. “He’s always been a very good horse, but he got hurt in the Derby,” Byrne said after Friday’s win, according to Daily Racing Form. “He had trained spectacularly coming into this race.”

REDS 6, CUBS 5

Villanueva might be odd man out CHICAGO – With Matt Garza’s return to the rotation on the horizon, manager Dale Sveum has a tough decision looming. The Cubs will need to create a spot for Garza, who has potentially three rehab starts before he will be ready to join the team. Cubs starting pitchers have combined for 17 quality starts, posting a 2.08 ERA in those outings. Only four teams AP photo have more quality starts than Cubs starter Carlos Villanueva pitches Friday in the first inning against the Cin- the Cubs: St. Louis (21), Cincincinnati Reds at Wrigley Field. nati (20), Philadelphia (18) and

INSIDE THE CUBS Meghan Montemurro Washington (18). “It’s a good problem to have because we have starting pitching that’s been pitching really well, but sometimes those things work themselves out by the time he’s ready to pitch,” Sveum said. “If not, we all know in this room it’s going to be one heck of a decision with

what we’re going to do.” Right-hander Carlos Villanueva was the latest to make his case. Villanueva allowed four runs in 52/3 innings during a 6-5 loss to the Reds on Friday at Wrigley Field and threw only 59 of his 95 pitches for strikes. “He couldn’t keep the ball down,” Sveum said. “Everything was up, every breaking ball, fastball ... it was up in the zone and was missing his location.”

BULLS AT NETS, 7 P.M. SATURDAY, CSN, TNT

Banged-up Bulls ready for Game 7 By BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press NEW YORK – Time for the Nets’ biggest game in Brooklyn. The Nets have brought their first-round series against the Bulls to a Game 7, a victory away from equaling the largest playoff comeback in NBA history. And they’ve brought it back home, where Barclays Center has to be more than a beautiful, $1 billion building. They are counting on a true home-court advantage against whichever banged-up Bulls can take the floor Saturday night. “The reward for the way we played in the regular season is that this Game 7 in the first round is in our building. So I’m just very confident our guys are going to take advantage of the opportunity and continue to do what they’ve done all year,” Nets interim coach P.J. Carlesimo said Friday. The Nets never hosted a Game 7 during their 35 years in New Jersey, dropping the only one they ever reached at Detroit in 2004. But they get one right away in their first season in Brooklyn, which looked unlikely just a week earlier. The Bulls were a win from closing it out after rallying for a triple-overtime victory April 27, but a combination of the Nets’ play and the Bulls’

pain has Brooklyn poised to become the ninth NBA team to win a series after trailing 3-1. The key Saturday is to play as hard now that it’s all even as they did when they were behind. “I think that’s a big, big concern, to continue the desperation with which we’ve played,” Carlesimo said during a conference call. “Our mantra’s kind of been the last couple of games to win and go on and get it back it Brooklyn for Game 7, and we certainly can’t think that we’ve done the hard part already. What’s left is going to be more difficult than the last two games and I think that’s going to be a challenge tomorrow.” The challenge for the Bulls is putting together a healthy team. Kirk Hinrich has missed the past two games with a bruised left calf and Luol Deng is so sick he may be forced to spend Friday night in the hospital after missing Game 6. He wrote on Twitter that he would be at Game 7 if he was cleared to travel. Nate Robinson and Taj Gibson played with the flu Thursday, Derrick Rose still isn’t back after knee surgery a year ago, so the Bulls will have to battle their way through tough circumstances at least one more time. “It’s going to be a fight,” guard Jimmy Butler said. “The tougher team is going to get the win.” Or the healthier one.

NBA PLAYOFF ROUNDUP

Knicks close out Celtics in Game 6 The ASSOCIATED PRESS BOSTON – Carmelo Anthony scored 21 points, and the New York Knicks held on after blowing most of a 26-point lead to beat the Boston Celtics, 8880, in Game 6 on Friday night and advance in the postseason for the first time since 2000. Jeff Green scored 21 points for the Celtics, who were hoping to become the first NBA team to advance in the playoffs after losing the first three games. The Knicks had not won a playoff series since Patrick Ewing and Latrell Sprewell (and current backup center Marcus Camby) helped them reach the 2000 Eastern Conference finals. They will open the second round Sunday at home

against the Indiana Pacers. Pacers 81, Hawks 73: At Atlanta, George Hill and David West each scored 21 points and Indiana withstood a furious Atlanta comeback in the fourth quarter, closing out the opening-round playoff series in Game 6. The home team had won every game until the Hawks returned to Philips Arena and set a franchise record with just nine points in the second quarter on 1-of-15 shooting. The defense broke down in the third, allowing Hill and West to combine for 22 points, and the Pacers built a 65-50 lead going to the fourth. The Hawks showed some heart, slicing it to 76-73 on Al Horford’s dunk with 2:13 remaining.

139TH KENTUCKY DERBY, 3 P.M. SATURDAY, NBC

It’s anybody’s race Lukas: No ‘Secretariat in this bunch, even Seattle Slew’ By BETH HARRIS

Derby odds

The Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. – A trainer flooding the field with five horses. A black jockey trying to make history, and a woman rider, too. Louisville coach Rick Pitino seeking a double – champions in racing and basketball. He’s sure in the right place. The 19-horse field for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby is balanced, with no definitive favorite. Orb is the pre-race choice, just barely. Nearly overshadowed is his trainer, Shug McGaughey, who really, really wants this race. Doug O’Neill trying to win back-to-back. And then there’s the threat of rain, which has done in some of the best-laid plans on race day. It sure looks like a topsy-turvy Derby. “I don’t think we’ve got Secretariat in this bunch, even Seattle Slew,” fourtime Derby-winning trainer D. Wayne Lukas said, “so I think it’s going to boil down to the trip and the pace and a lot of other things.” Todd Pletcher will saddle a record-tying five horses – undefeated and early second choice Verrazano, Revolutionary, Overanalyze, Palace Malice and Charming Kitten. “We laid out a plan to get here with them, and it’s all come down pretty much like we hoped,” said Pletcher, who has one Derby win with 31 previous starters. Verrazano is 4-0 in his young career,

not having run as a 2-year-old. He’ll be trying to disprove an old Derby jinx: no horse since Apollo in 1882 has won without racing as a juvenile. Relative unknown Kevin Krigger will be aboard Goldencents, trying to become the first black jockey to win since Jimmy Winkfield in 1902. “I’m going to ride us the race that should get us to the Kentucky Derby

winner’s circle,” Krigger said. The colt is partly owned by Pitino, whose Cardinals won the NCAA championship last month. The coach recently got elected to basketball’s Hall of Fame, so a Derby win would complete the ultimate trifecta. Rosie Napravnik wants to grab history for herself, too. No female jockey has ever won the Derby, although she came closest, with a ninth-place finish in 2011. Napravnik will ride 15-1 long shot Mylute. “He feels great, he’s acting great and I’m very confident heading into the Derby,” she said. Orb was the narrow 7-2 early favorite for the 139th Derby. He comes in on a four-race winning streak for McGaughey, the 62-year-old trainer whose Hall of Fame resume lacks a Derby victory. He’s making his second appearance since 1989, when he finished second with Easy Goer. “I hope the track is fast and safe for everybody and nobody has any excuses, and let the best horse win,” McGaughey said. Goldencents will be trying to deliver for more than Krigger and Pitino. He’s trained by O’Neill, who put unknown Mario Gutierrez aboard I’ll Have Another last year and won. The trainer is following the same script this time, giving Krigger a big break while trying to become the first trainer to win back-toback Derbies since Bob Baffert in 199798.

8SPORTS SHORTS Island Lake’s Curran wins MMA flyweight debut

might mean his retirement.

Island Lake’s Jeff Curran returned from a 12-month layoff to defeat Josh Killion in their mixed martial arts match that was the main event at Extreme Challenge 227 Friday night in Bettendorf, Iowa. Curran, 35, trains at his own gym in Crystal Lake and was battling back from injuries that kept him from fighting. He lost his previous two matches before beating Killion, 29-28, on all three judges’ cards, raising his career record to 36-15-1. Killion, 22, was more aggressive when they were on their feet, but Curran, in his 52nd professional fight, showed his experience when he forced Killion to the mat for long portions of the second and third rounds. Curran was able to lock his legs around Killion and prevent him from any offensive moves, while trying to choke him out. The fight was Curran’s first in the flyweight (125 pounds) class. He hoped a solid victory could help propel him for a chance to return to matches at the Ultimate Fighting Championships. It remains to be seen if that will happen, but Curran likely will continue fighting. Previous to the fight, he said a loss

Report: Packers’ Bulaga headed to left tackle The Green Bay Packers drafted Bryan Bulaga in 2010 out of Iowa with the idea that the Marian Central graduate would be their left tackle. It took a while, but that now will happen. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is reporting that Bulaga, who grew up in Crystal Lake, will move from right tackle to the left side for the 2013 season. Right guard Josh Sitton, who has played next to Bulaga for his three NFL seasons, also will switch sides. Left guard T.J. Lang will move to the right side and Marshall Newhouse, last year’s left tackle, will compete with two other players for the right tackle job. Bulaga played three seasons at Iowa, the last two at left tackle, before the Packers selected him 23rd overall in the 2010 NFL Draft. Veteran Chad Clifton was leaning toward retirement at that time, but reconsidered and returned to Green Bay. Four games into his rookie season, Bulaga grabbed the right tackle job and has been the regular starter there ever since. – Staff, wire reports

Long-shot ‘Sylmar’ upstages favorite By GARY GRAVES The Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Longshot Princess of Sylmar rallied with a huge stretch run to win the $1 million Kentucky Oaks on Friday at Churchill Downs. One of four fillies trained by Todd Pletcher in the Grade 1 race, the 38-1 long shot upstaged 3-2 favorite Dreaming of Julia. That positioned Pletcher for a weekend sweep Saturday in the Kentucky Derby, where he has a record-tying five entries – including Verrazano.

A slow start doomed Dreaming of Julia, who lagged behind before recovering in the stretch to finish fourth. By then, Princess of Sylmar was thrilling a crowd of 113,820 with her third win in four starts this year. Starting from the No. 6 post with Hall of Famer Mike Smith aboard, Princess of Sylmar ran 11/8 miles in 1:49.17 and paid $79.60, $29.40 and $14.00. Beholder returned $9 and $5.60, and Unlimited Budget, another Pletcher entry, paid $3.80 to show. Princess of Sylmar gave Pletcher his third Oaks win

and Smith his first, adding to a resume highlighted by a career Triple Crown – including a 2005 Derby victory aboard Giacomo. “I’ve never come close in the Kentucky Oaks and I’ve always wanted to win this race so bad,” Smith said. “I thank Todd for putting her in.” On numbers alone, Pletcher figured to get some return in the 10-horse field along with four competitors, including 48-1 choice Silsita. Dreaming of Julia was expected to provide the payoff, bringing in a 4-1-1 record including a

22-length win in her last start at Gulfstream Park on March 30. But with a deep field featuring several unbeaten competitors, anything was possible. Unlimited Budget, sired by 2007 Kentucky Derby winner Street Sense by Unlimited Pleasure, came in 4-0 under Pletcher. Close Hatches was 3-0 for trainer Bill Mott while Midnight Lucky was 2-0, providing Bob Baffert’s lone ontrack presence at Churchill Downs in a week that saw him scratch Code West and Govenor Charlie from the Derby.

Maribeth Sandford: ‘He was ready to run’ • INDY Continued from page C1 Chuck Sandford said in a phone interview last week that he liked the way Take Charge Indy had been running. He stables his horses at Churchill for eight months out of the year, making the track feel like home. But even before Friday’s race, Take Charge Indy’s owners had a feeling. Maribeth Sandford said in a phone interview that the

horse appeared anxious on the way over from the barn, giving her the sense Friday could be his day. “He was ready to run,” Maribeth Sandford said. “He was on his toes and ready to go. He wanted to get here, he wanted to get on the race track and get going.” Friday’s win was the third in 12 starts for Take Charge Indy. According to the Daily Racing Form, his winning share was $202,338, bringing his career winnings to just

under $1 million. Sandford said this will be Take Charge Indy’s final year of racing. He sold the horse’s breeding rights to Kentucky-based WinStar Farms last fall under the stipulation that he could still race Take Charge Indy this season. Byrne told reporters that Take Charge Indy would likely make his next start at the Stephen Foster Handicap next month, but wouldn’t make a final decision until speaking with Sandford and with representatives from

WinStar Farms. But Friday was all about celebrating. “It was so exciting – he led from the beginning and he ran away with it,” Maribeth Sandford said. “It was the Take Charge Indy we knew and then he had the injury. But he’s been feeling so good in the barn. He has been working so well and his times have been very good. “We were cautious about saying too much before, but we knew personally that he was running well.”

Bulls’ last gasp; Hawks rev up Northwest Herald sports copy editor Kevin Murphy picks his top sporting events to watch this weekend:

MUST-SEE TV NBA playoffs, first round, Game 7, Bulls at Brooklyn, 7 p.m. Saturday, TNT Well, here we are. The Bulls are bruised, injured, sick. They are down to the last straw. And yes, you can wonder what this series or season would be like if Derrick Rose would have played. The Bulls have given pretty much everything in the tank. There’s only so many injuries a team can suffer. If they somehow pull a miracle, and get themselves into the second round, that would just be a bonus. Tom Thibodeau did all he can. The Bulls are just trying to make the best of a bad situation. It’s been a fun season – don’t get me wrong – but the Bulls have been on life support all season. It might be time to pull the plug. It’s time to go toward the light at the end of tunnel and wait until next season (Note: I think the Cubs already have that phrase down.).

NHL playoffs, conference quarterfinals, Blackhawks at Minnesota, 2 p.m. Sunday, NBC Get the snacks and drinks ready, because hockey fans – you are in for the long haul. As Northwest Herald sports columnist Tom Musick pointed out after the Hawks’ first win in the series, “The No. 1 seed Hawks might have dominated the regular season en route to a 36-7-5 record, but nothing comes easily at this time of year. A slew of low-scoring games awaits, many of which will be decided by one goal, some of which will go to sudden-death overtime.” Musick is pretty much on par as he also notes that including Tuesday’s 10-mile roller coaster of a game, the Hawks have gone to overtime in eight of their

MURPH’S ’MOTE Kevin Murphy past nine postseason games. That includes one game this season, five out of six playoff games against Phoenix in 2012 and Games 6 and 7 against Vancouver in 2011. He says breathe and exhale. I say pop the aspirin, practice yoga during intermission and just prepare to dance to some “Chelsea Dagger” after the game.

SET THE DVR MLB, White Sox at Kansas City, 6 p.m. Saturday, WGN The White Sox are the first team to take a series from Texas this season. They move up slightly on the scale of mediocre Chicago baseball.

When Darin Monroe puts his lineup together, he looks for something special from the middle of his batting order. “We look for a little splash,” said Monroe, the softball coach at Rock Valley College, a National Junior College Athletic Association school in Rockford. What cleanup hitter Kara Ekx has provided this season for the Golden Eagles is far from a splash. It’s more like a tidal wave. A freshman from McHenry West, Ekx leads the nation in home runs this season with 12 and ranks second in RBIs (74) and fourth in slugging percentage (1.017) for RVC (28-10). “She’s definitely given us that splash,” Monroe said. “Kara has been our most consistent player. Other girls in our lineup have times when Kara Ekx they’re hot and times when they’re cold. They go through their slumps.” Ekx, who plays third base, has earned NJCAA Division III national player of the week honors twice this season while helping RVC reach No. 5 in this week’s national rankings. Her success at the plate, which includes a team-best .542 batting average, is far from her own doing. “I think that has a lot to do with the rest of my teammates,” Ekx said. “They’re all getting on base. Then when it’s my turn, they all come in (to score).” Rock Valley has scored the third-most runs in the country (355) while hitting the second-most home runs (25) and batting .402 as a team, which is No. 9 nationally. “Our one through nine hitters are solid,” Monroe said. “We’ve got a lot of depth. And we have three pitchers who are all different.” When the Golden Eagles play this weekend in the Region IV Tournament in Madison, Wis., a trip to the NJCAA national tournament in Rochester, Minn., will be on the line. Talk of winning a national championship is nothing new to Rock Valley’s players. “Coach first brought that up to us in the fall,” Ekx said. “I think it has made us feel really confident in ourselves.” “National championship is not a phrase you throw around if you don’t believe it,” Monroe said. The Golden Eagles, who are the top seed in this weekend’s tournament, are certain to face off against No. 2 seed College of DuPage, which is ranked No. 4 nationally.

ON CAMPUS Barry Bottino In a doubleheader sweep of COD on April 22, Rock Valley got a 3-for-8 performance from Ekx with a pair of RBIs and three runs. “She’s not the kind of kid to say, ‘Look what I did,’” Monroe said. “She says, ‘Look what WE did.’ She’s just the type of player we look for.” Kittle paces Anderson: Max Kittle (DundeeCrown) won a pair of individual titles last weekend at the Heartland Collegiate Athletics Conference men’s outdoor track and field championships in North Manchester, Ind. Kittle, a sophomore at D-III Anderson (Ind.) University, won the 110- and 400-meter hurdles events in 14.99 seconds and 53.44, respectively. His 400 hurdle time ranks fifth in school history and 10th in the nation this season. Kittle also anchored Anderson’s 1,600 relay team, which placed fourth. St. Norbert standout: Prairie Ridge grad Chad Ljunggren is batting .311 this season with 23 RBIs for D-III St. Norbert College’s baseball team. Ljunggren, a junior infielder, has started every game this season for the Green Knights (22-10) while helping the team clinch its 11th trip to the Midwest Conference postseason tournament in the past 12 years. St. Norbert has won 10 of its past 14 games. Ljunggren ranks second on the team with 17 stolen bases in 18 attempts this season. North Park honor: Cary-Grove grad Kyle Williams, a senior outfielder at D-III North Park University, was recognized Tuesday as the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin Baseball Hitter of the Week. Williams earned the award, his second of the season, after batting .400 over the previous week, which included two wins in a three-game series against CCIW rival Elmhurst. Williams went 8-for-13 against Elmhurst to improve his season average to .378. Williams has started 35 times for the Vikings (19-17) and leads the team with five triples. • Barry Bottino writes a weekly column and a blog about local college athletes for the Northwest Herald.

PR coach Brown keeps team loose • WOLVES Continued from page C1 “It’s tough to play them,” Jacobs coach Anthony Cappello said. “They do the little things right.” Brown, with the help of his two captains, has made it a fun, winning culture at Prairie Ridge. “I make sure everyone is comfortable,” said Bri Fenton, a midfielder who is one of two captains. “We work well as a team in keeping things positive.” Upon taking over this season, Brown said he was fortunate enough that former head coach Josh Iverson left him with a hard-working group of players who were passionate about the game. The only issue for Brown was finding the right balance for himself in his coaching style. He can be heard joking and laughing with his team on the sidelines during games. In practice, however, he has shown a more serious side after a key meeting. “After a couple practices I talked to my captains and they said, ‘You need to push us harder,’ and getting that

The talk with captains Jordyn Reitz and Fenton took away some of the new coach pressures and allowed him to see how his team felt about winning. So Brown started to work the team hard but also stay true to his nature and set goals. If the Wolves win regionals, where they’re the top seed of the Class 2A Marengo Regional, he’ll dye his hair. Sectionals, he’ll shave his head. “He was really relaxed in the beginning and didn’t re-

ally know he had to push us,” Reitz said. “Then he started giving us punishments if we didn’t try hard enough in certain things and it worked because no one wanted to run.” Now, they’re running. And they’re running over opponents. But that hasn’t changed how they are with each other. “It’s cool because a lot of players are pushing because they want to be better than each other,” Reitz said, “and you wouldn’t even know that by seeing how well we get along.”

NHL PLAYOFF ROUNDUP

Late goal lifts Islanders in Pittsburgh The ASSOCIATED PRESS PITTSBURGH – Kyle Okposo’s first career playoff goal with 7:37 remaining lifted the New York Islanders to a 4-3 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday night, evening their playoffs series at a game each. Matt Moulson, Colin McDonald and Matt Martin also scored for the Islanders, who spoiled Sidney Crosby’s comeback from a broken jaw by rallying from an early two-goal deficit. Crosby scored twice in the game’s first eight minutes as the Penguins raced to a quick 3-1 lead. But they couldn’t hold it as the Islanders bounced back from a lifeless performance in Game 1. Evgeni Nabokov overcame a sluggish start to stop 30 shots as the Islanders won their first playoff game in more than six years. Marc-Andre Fleury made 38 saves for Pittsburgh, which allowed the speedy Islanders to effectively coun-

terpunch all night. Game 3 is Sunday in New York. Canadiens 3, Senators 1: At Montreal, Ryan White started a three-goal second period and goalie Carey Price was back in top form with 29 saves as the Canadiens evened their playoff series. The best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarterfinal is tied 1-1 heading into Game 3 on Sunday in Ottawa. Brendan Gallagher and Michael Ryder also scored for Montreal. Milan Michalek scored for Ottawa, which was let down by a power play that went 0 for 4. There was anticipation of rough play after Eric Gryba’s hit that saw Montreal’s Lars Eller carried off the Bell Centre ice on a stretcher with a concussion and some missing teeth in Ottawa’s 4-2 win in the series opener Thursday night. Eller spent the night in hospital and was released AP photo Friday morning.

Hard hits, Blackhawks neutral on Wild goalies playoffs go together BLACKHAWKS NOTES

By TOM MUSICK

tmusick@shawmedia.com

• MUSICK Continued from page C1 Hossa required all summer to recover, while Torres ended up serving a 21-game suspension. It wasn’t the case this week, either, when Ottawa Senators defenseman Eric Gryba lowered his right shoulder into the side of Lars Eller’s head. Eller, a highly skilled forward for the Montreal Canadiens, was knocked out by the hit and fell face-first to the ice, staining it with blood. Eller was wheeled off the ice on a stretcher, and doctors quickly determined he had suffered a concussion and facial fractures. The postseason, Sharp said, was ripe for such hits. For what it’s worth, Sharp thought Gryba’s hit was clean because he kept his shoulder in and Eller had the puck. “You don’t often see that in the regular season,” Sharp said. “In the playoffs, guys are moving quicker, looking to hit like that. … “As far as bringing that to our series, you definitely want to stay away from it. Those plays can be big throughout the course of a game or the series.” That’s exactly what the Hawks want to avoid. Anyone who has watched hockey for more than a two-minute minor should be able to tell that the No. 1 seed Hawks possess far more talent than the No. 8 seed Wild. Because less talented teams cannot dictate the pace of the game with their skill, they often rely on physical play instead. Wild coach Mike Yeo said he wanted his team to be more physical against the Hawks. “That said,” Yeo said, “we have to make sure we’re doing it the right way.” It was refreshing to hear a coach attach a common-sense clause to his comments. But whether the Hawks and Wild continue to play “the right way” as the series continues is another question. At some point, every series seems to turn nasty. Someone could be drilled into the boards on a dangerous hit from behind. Someone could be leveled at center ice. Someone could catch a sharp stick (or a hard fist) to the face. The championship-minded Hawks hope that someone is not named Toews, Kane or Hossa. “You can’t be surprised by it,” Hawks coach Joel Quenneville said. “When we watch some of the other games, there are a lot of physical games. You’re going into the games knowing you’ve got to be ready for everything and anything. “Let’s be ready to handle it.” Let’s hope the stretcher stays exactly where it is. • Northwest Herald sports columnist Tom Musick can be reached at tmusick@shawmedia.com and on Twitter @tcmusick.

CHICAGO – In a rare glimpse of openness Friday, Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville provided a scouting report regarding the top two Minnesota Wild goaltenders. “One’s a righty and [one’s] a lefty,” Quenneville said. Well, that settles that. Wild goaltender Josh Harding, who catches with his right hand, started his second consecutive game in place of injured teammate Niklas Backstrom, who catches left. Backstrom took the ice during the Wild’s morning

skate but was ruled out because of a lower-body injury that he sustained during pregame warmups in Game 1. It’s possible that Backstrom could return to play in Game 3 on Sunday. Hawks captain Jonathan Toews said the opposing goaltender made little difference. Although some goalies fare better against certain types of shots, Toews said, the main idea was to create traffic in front of the net and block the vision of anybody in net. “That’s part of our mindset,” said Toews, a six-year veteran. “It doesn’t matter who’s in the net. That’s how

you score goals in the playoffs. You have to get some ugly ones.” Third pair: Quenneville shuffled the Hawks’ defensive pairings during the regular season, matching Duncan Keith with Niklas Hjalmarsson and Brent Seabrook with Nick Leddy. That left Johnny Oduya and Michal Rozsival to form the third defensive pairing. At times, Sheldon Brookbank joined Oduya on the third pairing. Quenneville was asked what made the leftover pair so successful. “Leftovers?” Quenneville

said with a grin. “That’s an interesting way of putting it, leftovers. It’s a pretty good leftover pair. “We felt that the balance was in place and we were getting a little bit of something from all three pairs, and all three pairs [were] able to play against top matchups.” Hawks bits: Goalie Ray Emery and Dave Bolland remained out because of lower-body injuries, and their status is uncertain heading into Game 3. … Brandon Bollig played in his second game of the series, while Daniel Carcillo and Jamal Mayers remained on the bench.

CUBS NOTES

Sveum sticks with platoon at 3rd base By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO mmontemurro@shawmedia.com CHICAGO – Cubs manager Dale Sveum’s confidence in his options at third base has helped produce, in his mind, one of the best combinations at that position in the majors. Left-handed hitting Luis Valbuena and right-hander Cody Ransom are expected to remain as the Cubs’ platoon at third base based on their combined production. Together they have hit seven home runs while playing third base, which leads the league at that position. “There’s nothing you need to change there,” Sveum said. “ … I know Valbuena has power. He has pull power and opposite field [power]. We saw it last year in certain stints.” Through the first couple weeks of the season, it appeared Valbuena was only a placeholder until a healthy Ian Stewart was ready to take over third. However, after Stewart (left quad strain) was activated from the 15-day disabled list Friday, he was optioned to Triple-A Iowa. In 13 rehab games with Iowa, Stewart went 4 for 44 (.091) with 16 strikeouts and only one extra base hit. Sveum plans to keep Valbuena’s bat in the lineup to take advantage of a lefty who can hit for power. Valbuena matched his career high Friday with three hits in the Cubs’ 6-5 loss to the Reds. “That’s why getting [Valbuena] to play every day, we worked on a few things in spring training to have a little more pull power and think a little bit more about slugging,” Sveum said. “It’s been paying off and he’s been do-

Inside the Cubs Reds 6, Cubs 5 Tipping point: The Cubs left 12 on base and wasted their best opportunities in the seventh and ninth innings. They left the bases loaded in the seventh after Alfonso Soriano struck out and Nate Schierholtz grounded out to end the inning. In the ninth, the Cubs again loaded the bases, this time with nobody out against Reds closer Aroldis Chapman, yet they managed to score only one run on a bases-loaded walk to pinch-hitter Scott Hairston. On the mound: Right-hander Carlos Villanueva took the loss, and his struggles to locate in the strike zone were part of the problem. Villanueva gave up four runs on seven hits and needed 95 pitches to get through 52/3 innings. At the plate: Ten of the Cubs’ season-high 15 hits came from four players – Anthony Rizzo (3 for 5), Luis Valbuena (3 for 4), Soriano (2 for 5) and Schierholtz (2 for 4). Soriano’s RBI double in the sixth was his 200th double with the Cubs making him the 30th player in franchise history to reach that milestone. Under the radar: Friday’s loss to the Reds drops the Cubs to 4-14 against teams with a winning record last year. The Cubs’ next eight games are against winning teams. The loss also marked the Cubs’ seventh consecutive home loss to the Reds, matching their longest home losing streak against Cincinnati (June 25, 2002-April 14, 2003). ing a good job.”

Patience displayed against Chapman: A late-game rally seemed unlikely when Reds closer Aroldis Chapman entered the ninth inning with the Reds holding a four-run lead.

While it wasn’t a save situation Friday, Chapman had put on a dominating performance this season, limiting opponents to one run in 131/3 innings with 21 strikeouts and three walks. Entering the game, Chapman owned a 0.68 ERA. But the Cubs’ patience against the hard-throwing lefty helped them cut the Reds’ lead to one run. In twothirds of an inning, the Cubs got four hits and three runs against Chapman, who also walked two hitters. However, Reds reliever J.J. Hoover struck out Darwin Barney with the bases loaded to end the game. “You have to be patient against [Chapman] because he doesn’t throw a lot of strikes,” shortstop Starlin Castro said. “If you don’t take certain pitches, he will try to throw every pitch for a strike.” Rehab assignements: Two rehab assignments have been scheduled in the coming days for reliever Kyuji Fujikawa and starting pitcher Matt Garza. Fujikawa (right forearm strain) will pitch Sunday at Triple-A Iowa with a 25-pitch limit. Garza (lat strain) will make his second rehab start Monday at Iowa. Both outings are scheduled based on the expectation that the weather conditions will be OK. The Iowa Cubs’ game in Des Moines, Iowa, was postponed Friday because of snow. Sveum reiterated this week that he plans to keep using a closer by committee system. Before Friday’s game, Fujikawa’s translator said the right hander isn’t sure what the Cubs’ plans were going forward, only that he was ready for whatever his rehab assignment would be.

Villanueva likely to compete with Feldman for final spot • CUBS Continued from page C1 After stringing together four consecutive quality starts to begin the season, Friday’s start was the second in a row Villanueva (1-2) gave up four runs. Sveum downplayed Villanueva’s issues with locating pitches, noting it’s a small sample size six starts into the season. While the conditions weren’t great at Wrigley Field Friday as rain cooled the temperature to 41 degrees with 12 mph winds, Villanueva didn’t make excuses.

“You try to not get too caught up in the conditions, I pitch my game regardless,” Villanueva said. “If [the wind] is blowing in or out, I can’t change my game plan because of that.” However, the developing trend of leaving pitches up in the zone could be one of the factors that make Villanueva the odd man out when Garza returns in about three weeks. Jeff Samardzija (3.35 ERA) is a lock to stay in the rotation as well as Edwin Jackson, despite his 0-4 record and 6.27 ERA. The Cubs didn’t give Jackson a four-year, $52-mil-

lion contract to pitch out of the bullpen. On top of Travis Wood’s strong numbers (team-leading 2.50 ERA with six quality starts in six outings), he’s a left-hander, which they need to keep the rotation somewhat balanced. Unless an injury pops up within the next month, Villanueva is competing against right-hander Scott Feldman for the final spot. Although Feldman has had his fair share of shaky moments, he threw the Cubs’ first complete game of the season Wednesday against the Padres. Feldman, like Villanueva, has been

predominately used as a long reliever the past few years while earning an occasional spot start. “My last two starts I’m one pitch away from having two quality outings,” Villanueva said. “The good part is I’m close to where I want to be, I’m just not putting that guy away when I need to.” For his part, Villanueva wouldn’t dwell on the implication of Garza’s return. As well as Villanueva has pitched, his experience as a long reliever – he started 17 total games the previous three seasons compared to Feldman’s 45 during that

span – and some struggles with his location may leave him an unhappy man in the bullpen. “You ask Dale that, and you ask Theo [Epstein] and Jed [Hoyer], because I don’t have any control over that,” Villanueva said. “I get the ball and I pitch.” • Meghan Montemurro covers the White Sox and Cubs for Shaw Media.

Sue Cashin, owner of Fetch! Pet Care of McHenry County, plays with her dog at her home in Wonder Lake.

Fetching business Pet-sitting franchise grows in McHenry County By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com WONDER LAKE – Becky Hansen has the uncanny ability to communicate with canines, after spending her childhood surrounded by animals on a farm in unincorporated McHenry. After years of interacting with dogs, chickens and cows, Hansen transformed her passion for animals into a hobby. She studied obedience training as an adult, learning how to read the body language and quirks of dogs. As part of the training, Hansen would often try to coach her Australian Shepherd named Blue to walk toward her from a sitting position. But Blue resisted, often turning its head and licking its lips. Through her studies, Hansen realized that Blue’s behavior meant it was content with sitting. She identified the problem and would go on to enter Blue into numerous obedience competitions. “I don’t claim to be a dog whisperer,” said Hansen, who owns five dogs with her boyfriend. “But I like to pay attention. When I walk in somewhere, I’m actually looking at the dog, and the dog’s body and trying to figure out what he is telling me.” Hansen has been monitoring many dogs throughout area communities since 2010, as a pet sitter for Fetch! Pet Care of McHenry County Hansen’s expertise and interpersonal skills with animals are just two reasons why Fetch! has grown into a successful area brand, said Sue Cashin, owner of Fetch! in McHenry County. The Wonder Lake resident opened the Fetch! franchise in 2009, after spending years in marketing with Motorola. Cashin overseas 12 contracted pet

sitters, including Hansen, who provide a variety of pet-care services for area pet owners looking for professional care while away at work or an extended vacation. Fetch! offers services from daily, 30-minute dog walks to private boardings, where a pet can stay at the sitter’s home. Fetch! in McHenry primarily services dogs, but the business also is available for cats, exotic ani-

mals and even farm animals. “I want them to feel like they are in a family,” Cashin said. “I want (owners) to feel comfortable when we are with their animals.” Aside from quality expertise, the pet sitters also keep in constant contact with the pet owners, sending email, text and picture updates about the pet while the owner is away, Cashin said. In the face of turbulent economic times, Cashin has managed to grow her business to service more than 200 clients from Spring Grove to Elgin. She is looking to expand the franchise further, as the national Fetch! brand continues to grow throughout the Midwest. The Chicago area alone will soon see seven new Fetch! franchises, including ones in Evanston, Chicago Heights, and the Wheaton area. “I would love to see Fetch! become a household name in McHenry County,” Cashin said. “I think it’s starting to get there.”

NEW YORK – After weeks of conflicting signals about the strength of the economy, a big gain in the jobs market gave Wall Street reason to celebrate Friday. The stock market surged, traders donned party hats, and the wave of buying drove three indexes through major milestones. “There’s euphoria today,” said Stephen Carl, the head equity trader at The Williams Capital Group. “That’s what you’d have to call it.” The Dow Jones industrial average punched through another milestone, 15,000, before easing back. The Standard and Poor’s 500 index closed above 1,600 for the first time. The Dow rose 142.38 points to close at 14,973.96, up 1 percent. The S&P 500 index surged 16.83 points, or 1 percent, to 1,614.42. A surprisingly strong job report set it all off. U.S. employers added 165,000 new workers in April and many more in February and March than previously estimated. The unemployment rate fell to the lowest level in four years, 7.5 percent. The surge in U.S. hiring comes after weeks of conflicting signals about the strength of the global economy. The unexpectedly strong numbers jolted markets higher from the start of trading. On the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, brokers sported baseball caps emblazoned with “Dow 15,000.” The gains were broad. Eight of the 10 industry groups in the S&P 500 index rose. Nearly three stocks rose for every one that fell on the NYSE. Companies that stand to benefit most from an upturn in the economy led the stock market up. Those that make basic materials and produce oil and gas rose the most in the S&P 500 index. U.S. Steel, General Electric and Dow Chemical were among the winners. Utilities, consumer-staple companies and other safe-play stocks trailed the market as investors took on more risk.

Champions crowned in MCC Accounting Bowl CRYSTAL LAKE – More than 150 high school accounting schools students flexed their mental muscle as they tested their numerical competence and problem-solving skills at McHenry County College’s 11th annual High School Accounting Bowl last week. Eight county high schools participated in the event, which was divided into two levels, Accounting 1, geared for first-year accounting students and Accounting 2, for those completing two years of high school accounting. The students took a one-hour long paper and pencil test that included true-false and multiplechoice questions. Students also participated in a scavenger hunt to find classrooms and student support offices at the college. The students also heard guest speaker, MCC alumna Laura Weise, CPA, who works as a senior manager for Ernst & Young, LLP, in Chicago. Weise, 28, of Park Ridge, earned an associate degree from MCC in 2003 and transferred to Judson University where she earned a bachelor’s degree in accounting. Weise gave students career advice during her presentation. “One thing I would like students to remember is to be prepared and take advantage of opportunities no matter what field they go into,” she said. In the teams category, Crystal Lake South High School and Alden-Hebron High School each

Right at Home celebrates Older Americans Month ALGONQUIN – “Unleash the Power of Age” is the theme for the 2013 Older Americans Month. Celebrated every May since 1963 by communities and organizations across the country, Older Americans Month recognizes and applauds the vibrant lives, legacies and ongoing contributions of older Americans. When President John F. Kennedy first designated May 1963 as Senior Citizens Month, only about 17 million Americans were age 65 or older. Today, the number of U.S. seniors is approximately 41.4 million, or 13.3 percent of

we encourage all Americans to especially note May as a time to extend special appreciation for our older family, friends and neighbors.” Right at Home is a leading provider of inhome companion and personal care to senior citizens and other adults. The Administration on Aging, an agency of the U.S. Administration for Community Living, sponsors the annual Older Americans Month, which received its current name via proclamation by President Jimmy Carter in 1980. The AOA emphasizes three main ways to participate in

the total population. One of every eight Americans is a senior citizen, and the U.S. Census Bureau estimates that by 2060, the number of older adults is expected to reach 92 million, or one of every five Americans. “We appreciate how Older Americans Month puts the spotlight on all elder adults who help inspire and challenge every one of us to lead lives of lasting purpose and giving back to others,” said Jeanette Palmer, president of Right at Home in Algonquin. “Because Right at Home serves many of our nation’s older unsung heroes,

I learned that there’s still a lot I don’t known,” said Brian Frericks, Crystal Lake South senior. “It’s fun meeting other accounting students from other schools,” said Randi Blazier of Harvard High School, who won first place in last year’s individual category. Jordan Fox, senior from Johnsburg, agreed. “I like meeting new people and finding out what their favorite parts of accounting are, including arguments on plant assets and land assets.” Johnsburg classmate Chris Brown, a sophomore, summed up the importance of accounting by saying, “If we could all practice accounting, there would be no wars because every country would have enough economic wealth and no need to fight.” “This event is the highlight of the students’ year. It’s something fun they look forward to. I use it as a motivational tool because I bring my best students,” said Karyn Burmeiser, accounting teacher at

“We’re breaking through psychological barriers and that will continue to bring investors off the sidelines,” said Darrell Cronk, regional chief investment officer for Wells Fargo Private Bank. He called the jobs news “wonderful.” For more than a month, investors have had to wrestle with worrying reports on the world economy. First came news of falling retail sales in March, then a series of weak manufacturing reports and signs of an economic slowdown in China.

this year’s “Unleash the Power of Age!” campaign: Nominate an older American who is a leader using his/ her talents and expertise to make a worthwhile impact locally or in a broader scope; host an event to highlight notable local seniors; use social media to promote Older Americans Month via posts to Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

That’s the spirit: Booze from local crops booming By MICHAEL HILL Associated Press

Alden-Hebron Accounting Bowl Team won first place in the Accounting 2 category at McHenry County College’s 2013 High School Accounting Bowl. Pictured with MCC President Vicky Smith (left) are (from left): Ian Johnson, Brianna Olson, and Hunter Ogle. McHenry High School. “The guest speaker gives students an insight into a real world accounting experience.” Teresa Eick George, accounting teacher from AldenHebron, shared a similar comment, “It’s awesome. Students look forward to it all year. They like the competition.” Don Curfman, instructor of accounting at MCC, said

this event is a way to honor, reward and encourage outstanding high school accounting students. “I am very proud that accounting students are able to display their trophies next to the sports trophies at their local high schools. I look forward to seeing many of them attend MCC and volunteer to run future Accounting Bowls,” he said.

The first-quarter earnings season has been mixed, too. Though earnings have been higher than expected, many companies have reported little or no revenue growth, which has spooked investors. Investors have also been concerned that higher Social Security payroll taxes and sweeping government spending cuts that took effect earlier this year will slow U.S. economic growth, and pinch corporate profits. The S&P 500 is up 13 per-

cent from the start of the year. The Dow is up 14 percent. Friday’s jobs numbers suggested the private sector might be strong enough to overcome those various obstacles. In its report, the government revised its previous estimate of job gains up to 332,000 in February and 138,000 in March. The economy has created an average of 208,000 jobs a month from November through April – above the 138,000 added in the previous six months.

GARDINER, N.Y. – With all the orchards and corn fields that dot the Hudson Valley landscape, Tuthilltown Spirits doesn’t have to look far for the grains and apples to make their whiskey, vodka and gin. The 10-year-old company crafts many of their liquors from ingredients grown no more than a few minutes away, the bounty of the rolling hills that surround it. “The people who come to our distillery and visit us and see our operation can then drive down the road to the local orchard or the local farm and actually see the materials we’ve used in the ground,” Tuthilltown cofounder Ralph Erenzo said. “Buy a basket of the apples that we’ve made vodka or gin from, and maybe get a couple of ears of corn.” The process is sometimes referred to as “grain to glass” — the beer-and-whiskey version of the foodie slogan “farm to table.” Both phrases imply a connection to fresh, local ingredients. Tuthilltown is part of a larger handcrafted booze movement that has Wood Creek Distillers in Colorado growing its own potatoes for high-end vodka and Wigle Whiskey in Pittsburgh using local, organic heirloom rye. “These local distilleries are going to do things again based on the local culture,” said Bill Owens, founder and

president of the American Distilling Institute. He said the dizzying growth in craft distilleries to about 500 now from around 200 five years ago is driven in part by the desire to connect to local crops and customs. Tuthilltown is busy operation based in a converted barn packed with three stills, including one with a towering copper silo with portals that makes it look part nautical, part steampunk. On a recent day, a worker hoisted heavy bags of New York-grown corn into a mill next to giant stainless steel fermentation tanks. Oak barrels used for aging were stacked nearby. Erenzo said their vodkas are distilled from apples grown at local orchards and the whiskeys typically start with local grain. The arrangements not only lend Tuthilltown some of the Hudson Valley’s cachet, but makes business sense: it’s a lot cheaper to move a couple of tons of grain across town than in from Indiana. It’s also good for farmer Leonard Tantillo, who sells the hometown distillers corn, rye and apples he grows at his family farm nearby. Tantillo, who runs a farm market in Gardiner, said it gives him yet another market to sell what he grows. And there are other side benefits. “They give me product at Christmastime or whenever I’m down there,” Tantillo said.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

Christian Nestell Bovee, an epigrammatic writer who died in 1904, said, “Music is the fourth great material want -- irst food, then clothes, then shelter, then music.” If alive today, he would surely relegate music to ifth behind food, clothes, shelter and bridge. In bridge, the fourth bid in an uncontested auction is game-forcing when it is in the fourth suit. Usually, responder is hunting for the best game, but sometimes he wants to suggest a slam. Look at this deal. When North hears his partner rebid one spade, he knows game in spades should be easy and that a slam might be possible. Jumping immediately to four spades does not do justice to his hand. Instead, he irst forces to game with two diamonds. Then, after opener continues with three clubs, North jumps to four spades, which logically is a slam-try. Now South, with such a great hand, can take control with (Roman KeyCard) Blackwood before bidding seven spades or seven no-trump. After West leads the diamond queen to the bare

ace, how should South plan the play? If declarer can play spades safely, he will have 13 tricks: four spades, one heart, two diamonds and six clubs. The right play is to cash the spade king, planning to cross to dummy’s ace. That works great here, uncovering the 4-1 break. However, East might throw South off the scent by playing his spade nine under declarer’s king. If South thinks that is a singleton, he will next cash his spade queen and go down one. Watch out for this falsecard.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - You’ll find that learning will be easier for you in the year ahead if you study things that have an immediate application. Branching out in this fashion could pay off. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You don’t have to resort to extravagance to let a loved one know how much you care. In fact, sometimes small but thoughtful gestures are the best. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- When working in concert with another, don’t attempt to hog the glory for a job well done, even if you think you did all the work. Rewards should be split equally for any joint endeavor. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Make important decisions based only on the existing facts. If you’re not careful, optimistic reasoning will impair your judgment. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Avoid inclinations to make small difficulties into big ones. Instead, use that wonderful imagination of yours in positive ways. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It would be a mistake to request a business or financial favor from people whom you know purely on a social basis. If you want to keep them as friends, seek elsewhere. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- It’s iffy as to whether you’ll hit your stride and be productive. To succeed, you must first make sure that you have a clear aim and a strong focus. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Discussions with friends are likely to prove quite enlightening, but steer clear of committing to any proposed joint endeavors. Things wouldn’t turn out well. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Even though you are likely to get a strong start, you could quickly tire and lose steam as the day wears on. There’s a chance that you won’t finish what you start. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Occasionally, we all do a little harmless exaggerating. If you do so today, however, many harmful complications could result. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You’ll handle small financial dealings competently, but that won’t be so when it comes to situations with larger stakes. Avoid taking any risks. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Be careful not to behave in a superior or condescending manner when dealing with others. You’re on shakier ground than you know, and you could use some friends. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Rewards that you’ve been expecting will come your way, but only in direct proportion to your efforts. Don’t expect any big returns for subpar work.
