Mixed feelings on special session Local lawmakers unsure whether committee will produce pension compromise

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com Illinois lawmakers came to a special session on pension reform, they saw, they formed a committee, they collected per diems for their trouble, and they left.

The House and Senate on

Wednesday approved creating a 10-member committee to attempt to develop a pension fix that reconciles deep differences between reform bills passed by both houses. Gov. Pat Quinn called for the special session after lawmakers adjourned May 31 without approving a plan to address an unfunded pension liability now ap-

proaching $100 billion.

Wednesday’s votes create a “conference committee,” a rarely used tool to reach consensus when the House and Senate reach an impasse. The committee will be made up of 10 members – Senate President John Cullerton and House Speaker Michael Madigan each will get three appointees,

and House Republican Leader Tom Cross and Senate Minority Leader Christine Radogno each will get two.

Another special session is scheduled for July 8 to vote on whatever legislation the committee develops. But local lawmakers have mixed feelings as to whether legislation enacting

Reform-minded appointees to the McHenry County Mental Health Board will take its reins under a slate proposed for approval next week.

Under a slate released Tuesday, newcomers Robert Routzahn and Carrie Smith are in line to be elected president and vice president of the nine-member board. The board has come under increasing scrutiny over its spending and size, which contributed in large part to the former president’s ouster.

Incumbent Connee Meschini, who has questioned the board’s spending in the past, will remain as secretary, and incumbent Don Larson, the board’s longest-serving member, will be elected treasurer.

The McHenry County Board appoints to the Mental Health Board, which elects officers yearly.

Routzahn, of Crystal Lake, said Wednesday afternoon in between meetings with client agencies that he looks forward to the challenge. He met Wednesday morning with the Special Education District of McHenry County and was en route to a meeting with Transitional Living Services, which helps homeless veterans.

“I’m excited about the opportunity, and to be perfectly

Ballplayers who’ve met the challenge As rabid of an NHL fan as I’ve become over the past five years or so, baseball will always be my first sports love.

Some find it boring, and admittedly this year, it’s difficult to watch if you’re a Cubs or White Sox fan, but it’s still a beautiful game and still America’s pastime.

For many, there are father-son connections with baseball. My dad was an outstanding high school and college player, who at 70 still recruits high school baseball players. Unfortunately, the bat speed was not genetic, but I enjoyed playing as a kid.

From this summer’s Saturday Little League games, catching the White Sox as a kid with my dad and now going with my son, baseball has brought us many great memories. We’ve also gathered all three generations for occasional games.

That’s why I’ve always had a soft spot for the Challenger Division Little League program based in Woodstock.

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Kevin Lyons Every kid who wants to play should get a chance to swing a bat and put on a glove, and they do thanks to programs like this.

The Challenger Division started in 1989, and now more than 30,000 special needs kids get to participate on 900 teams across the nation, including in the Woodstock program that began last year.

We finally got to catch a Challenger Division game a few weeks ago at Sullivan Field in Emricson Park. Each of the Little League teams gets to play a special game on that carefully manicured field, and games at Sullivan are complete with an electronic scoreboard, a pregame national anthem and an announcer calling the game.

It took only a few innings of Chal-

lenger Division Cubs and Cardinals baseball to chase away the misery of several weeks of bad Major League Baseball and to rekindle my love for the game. Watching the joy these kids get as their Buddies encourage them around the bases is an awesome sight to behold.

What I didn’t notice until I talked to him later was that Northwest Herald reporter Shawn Shinneman was one of the fantastic Challenger Buddies who volunteers to help these kids play ball.

There’s certainly no sophomore slump for Woodstock’s Challenger Division. In January, they learned that the district, which includes Woodstock, Bartlett and Dundee/Carpentersville, was selected to play an exhibition game in August amid the events surrounding the Little League World Series. s The Aug. 24 game will be played at Volunteer Stadium in Williamsport, Pa. The Illinois team will be play a

California Challenger team, and a portion of the game will be broadcast live on ESPN3.

As an added bonus, the members of the Illinois Challenger team will be honored for their upcoming trip on June 29 before the White Sox game vs. the Cleveland Indians.

Donations are being solicited to help send the athletes and their families to Williamsport later this summer and are being accepted on the Woodstock Little League’s website at http://www.woodstocklittleleague. com.

Congratulations to the Challenger athletes, coaches, parents, Buddies and my friend Rochelle Donahue, who is Challenger Division director, on another great year.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – A former Chicago firefighter who was convicted in the 1994 slaying of his wife has received more than $55,000 a year in pension payments from behind bars, according to a televised report.

WFLD-TV reported there’s nothing illegal about the money – more than $840,000 in all – that Eugene Ornstead has collected over the years.

Under Illinois law, public pensions must still be paid to criminals, unless the crime was committed as part of the pensioner’s job, pension expert Bill Zettler told Eugene the TV station.

The TV station said he resigned from the department and applied for the money in a handwritten note, just days after his wife’s beating death.

The station said Ornstead was eligible for more pension money because his wife was dead, and therefore he was considered a “sole survivor.”

Zettler told the station that the payments may raise eyebrows, even if they’re entirely legal.

“Why should the taxpayers be paying a pension to somebody who’s in prison for life?”

Zettler said. “Social Security, if you’re in prison you don’t

Oversight for spying program little-used Privacy board has been in ‘startup mode’ since 2008

By STEPHEN BRAUN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The obscure oversight board that President Barack Obama wants to scrutinize the National Security Agency’s secret surveillance system is little known for good reason.

The U.S. Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board has operated fitfully during its eight years of low-profile existence, stymied by congressional infighting and, at times, censorship by government lawyers.

The privacy board met Wednesday, its first meeting since revelations that the NSA has been secretly collecting the phone records of millions of Americans. The meeting was closed to the public.

The board has existed since 2004, first as part of the executive branch, then, after a legislative overhaul that took effect in 2008, as an independent board of presidential appointees reporting to Congress. But hindered by Obama administration delays and then resistance from Republicans in Congress, the new board was not fully functional until May, when its chairman, David Medine, finally was confirmed.

Obama’s sudden leaning on the board as a civil libertarian counterweight to the government’s elaborate secret surveillance program places trust in an organization that is untested and whose authority at times still defers to Congress and government censors.

“They’ve been in startup mode a long time,” said

Sharon Bradford Franklin, a senior counsel at the Constitution Project, a bipartisan civil liberties watchdog group. “With all the concerns about the need for a debate on the issue of surveillance, this is a great opportunity for them to get involved.”

It was not clear how much classified information would be discussed at Wednesday’s meeting. As late as April 2012, the board’s incoming chairman did not have a security clearance and the board did not have the classified, secure meeting area that is necessary to review and discuss classified government material.

The board’s five appointees recently got security clearances, said Franklin, who attended the new group’s first two meetings in October and March. “The first thing they can do is push for more disclosure and a more well-rounded picture of the surveillance programs,” she said.

In an interview with television talk show host Charlie Rose, Obama said he wanted the group to spearhead a national conversation not only on the surveillance programs recently disclosed by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, but also “about the general problem of these big data sets because this is not going to be restricted to government entities.”

The board’s mandate includes privacy as well as national security concerns, so, in theory, it could veer into questions about how Internet companies like Google and Facebook as well as hundreds of other data-mining firms deal with privacy and how government might regulate those entities. But as Franklin and other civil liberties experts said, the board’s role is largely advisory, setting out problems and suggesting possible options.

Immigration bill’s effect debated Estimate: Illegal moves to U.S. to drop 25 percent The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Supporters of far-reaching immigration legislation rejected a challenge Wednesday from Senate conservatives demanding evidence that the nation’s borders are secure before millions unlawfully living in the United States can gain legal status.

The vote came as lawmakers on both sides of the issue digested a startling Congressional Budget Office forecast that the bill would fail to prevent a steady increase in illegal residents in the future, even though it would grant legal status to millions already in the country without the necessary papers.

CHICAGO – It is the last day of class for more than two dozen Chicago public schools that are closing their doors for the last time.

Wednesday was the last day of class for about a third of the city’s schools. Chicago Public Schools spokeswoman Becky Carroll said that among those are 28 of the 50 schools and programs that the Board of Education voted last month to close. Classes for the rest of the city’s schools end next week.

At Lafayette Elementary School on the city’s West Side, fifth-grader Amy Romero said goodbye to the only elementary school she’s ever attended.

She said she is upset about her school closing and worried about how she will fit in at her new school.

Memorial for cremated remains set in Geneva GENEVA – Cremated remains of seven people have been turned over to next-of-kin three months after they were found along with 40 others in an office storage unit, Kane County Coroner Rob Russell said Wednesday.

Russell announced in March that the 47 cremated remains were found in an effort to reunite them with next-of-kin.

Russell’s office knew the names of the deceased.

As a result, a father was reunited with the cremated remains of his 2-month-old child more than 25 years after

the child’s death. Another set of cremated remains was shipped to next-of-kin in Australia.

A non-denominational service and interment is planned Thursday at a St. Charles cemetery for the 40 unclaimed remains.

The long-term impact of the assessment of future illegal immigration was unclear, with supporters of the measure maneuvering for the 60 votes necessary for passage as early as next week.

A small group of Republicans, including Sens. John Hoeven of North Dakota and Bob Corker of Tennessee, has been trying to find middle ground on the border security issue in recent days, an effort that accelerated Wednesday.

“This is a key moment in the effort to pass the bill,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham, a member of the bipartisan Gang of Eight that drafted the legislation yet who also wants to toughen its border security provisions.

In the short-term, the vote on a challenge from Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., showed the bipartisan Senate coalition behind the bill was holding.

The proposal was set aside on a vote of 61-37.

Paul said his proposal would require Congress to vote annually for five years on whether the border is secure. If lawmakers decide it is not, “then the processing of undocumented workers stops until” it is, he said.

James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano in a scene from one of the last episodes in 2007 of the HBO dramatic series “The Sopranos.”

James Gandolfini dies in Italy at age 51

By LYNN ELBER The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – James Gandolfini, whose portrayal of a brutal, emotionally delicate mob boss in HBO’s “The Sopranos” helped create one of TV’s greatest drama series and turned the mobster stereotype on its head, died Wednesday in Italy. He was 51.

In a statement, the cable channel and Gandolfini’s managers, Mark Armstrong and Nancy Sanders, said he died Wednesday while on holiday in Rome. No cause of death was given.

“Our hearts are shattered and we will miss him deeply.

He and his family were part of our family for many years and we are all grieving,” said Armstrong and Sanders.

HBO called the actor a “special man, a great talent, but more importantly a gentle and loving person who treated everyone, no matter their

After the David Chase series concluded with its breathtaking blackout ending, Gandolfini’s varied film work included comedies such as “In the Loop,” a political satire, and the heartwarming drama “Welcome to the Rileys,” which costarred Kristen Stewart. He voiced the Wild Thing Carol in “Where the Wild Things Are.” In a December 2012 interview with The Associated Press, Gandolfini said he gravitated to acting as a release, a way to get rid of anger. “I don’t know what exactly I was angry about,” he said.

“I try to avoid certain things and certain kinds of violence at this point,” he said last year. “I’m getting older, too. I don’t want to be beating people up as much. I don’t want to be beating women up and those kinds of things that much anymore.”

Gandolfini played mob boss Tony Soprano in the groundbreaking HBO series that aired from 1999 to 2007. His film credits included “Zero Dark Thirty” and “Killing Them Softly,” and he amassed stage credits as well.

He shared a Broadway stage in 2009 with Jeff Daniels, Hope Davis and Marcia Gay Harden in a celebrated production of “God of Carnage,” where he earned a Tony Award nomination for best actor.

He had also been in “On the Waterfront” with David Morse and was an understudy in a revival of “A Streetcar Named Desire” in 1992 starring Alec Baldwin and Jessica Lange.

Gandolfini’s performance in “The Sopranos” was indelible and career-making, but he refused to be stereotyped

BERLIN – Summoning the harsh history of this once-divided city, President Barack Obama on Wednesday cautioned the U.S. and Europe against “complacency” brought on by peace, pledging to cut America’s deployed nuclear weapons by one-third if Cold War foe Russia does the same.

The president also declared that his far-reaching surveillance programs had saved lives on both sides of the Atlantic, as he sought to defend the controversial data-mining to skeptical Europeans.

Privacy-protective Germany was particularly eager for answers about the sweeping programs run by the National Security Agency. Chancellor Angela Merkel used a news conference with Obama Wednesday to appeal for “due diligence” in evaluating the privacy concerns, though she avoided a direct public confrontation with the president.

“There needs to be proportionality,” she said of the U.S. programs. “This is going to be an ongoing battle.”

Board to U.S. tries saving Taliban talks after objection elect new officers Tuesday The ASSOCIATED PRESS

KABUL, Afghanistan – Hopes dimmed for talks aimed at ending the Afghan war when an angry President Hamid Karzai on Wednesday suspended security negotiations with the U.S. and scuttled a peace delegation to the Taliban, sending American offi-

• HEALTH BOARD Continued from page A1 honest, honored and humbled by the challenge,” Routzahn said. “There’s much to be done, and I’m very receptive to questions of good government, transparency and appropriate oversight.”

Five of the nine seats have changed hands since September. Two members lost re-election, two resigned to take jobs with agencies receiving Mental Health Board funding, and one did not seek reappointment. The Mental Health Board meets Tuesday evening to elect officers.

Critics have accused the Mental Health Board in recent years of becoming a bureaucracy that spends too much money on administration and overhead that should be going directly to agencies treating the mentally ill and disabled, as it was created by voter referendum to do.

Those criticisms were amplified last year as the Mental Health Board spent $1.8 million in a failed effort to save an ailing mental health agency from closing, and blew its legal budget by more than 500 percent, in part to successfully defend against a federal lawsuit filed by one of the agencies it funds.

Former Executive Director Sandy Lewis quit last year to take another job, shortly after receiving her doctorate, for which taxpayers paid at least $30,000, according to records obtained under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act. The Mental Health Board had maintained in response to criticism that it spent a flat 6 percent on administrative costs.

But that figure from a 2011 report factored in only administrative salaries and general operating costs, and not items such as paying off $3.5 million in bonds to almost quadruple the size of its Crystal Lake headquarters. Its 2012 annual report released late last month puts administrative costs at 17 percent, or just under $2.5 million of the $14.9 million it spent last fiscal year.

A reform effort started in earnest in January, when the McHenry County Board appointed longtime Mental Health Board critic Donna Kurtz, R-Crystal Lake, as chairman of the County Board committee in charge of appointing Mental Health Board members. It nominated newcomers Routzahn, Smith and Heather Murgatroyd from a pool of 12 applicants to fill three expired terms, and rejected the reappointment bid of President Lee Ellis.

Current Vice President Brett Wisnauski has been filling in as board president since Ellis’ ouster.

Routzahn said his immediate priorities will be finding a replacement for Lewis and moving forward with commissioning an outside audit of the Mental Health Board.

Employee Todd Schroll has served as interim executive director since Oct. 29, and the board started its search over in April after one of the two finalists for the job took another offer.

Schroll has applied for the job, but board members have not commented on speculation that he was one of the two finalists.

Another priority Routzahn highlighted is moving forward on competitively bidding for legal services.

Routzahn and County Board liaison Paula Yensen, D-Lake in the Hills, have questioned the legal bills submitted by current board attorney Francis Gosser, who since last year has been paid $250 an hour for legal services.

cials scrambling to preserve the possibility of dialogue with the militants.

What provoked the mercurial Karzai and infuriated many other Afghans was a move by the Taliban to cast their new office in the Gulf nation of Qatar as a rival embassy. The Taliban held a ribbon-cutting ceremony Tues-

day in which they hoisted their flag and a banner with the name they used while in power more than a decade ago: “Political Office of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.”

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry spoke with Karzai on the phone, telling him that his concerns were justified and that he would work to re-

solve the issue.

An American official, speaking anonymously because he was not authorized to disclose the information, said he still expects to have the first public meeting with Taliban representatives in the next few days in Qatar but that no exact meeting date has been set.

Nevertheless, the militants’ attempt at a publicity coup clearly played to Karzai’s longstanding distrust of both the Taliban and the United States, who had announced Tuesday that they would pursue negotiations in the Qatari capital of Doha — at least initially without the Afghan government.

8NATION BRIEFS Several dead after condo shooting in Louisville LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Three people were shot to death and a fourth was seriously injured Wednesday at a condominium building in Louisville, Ky. The fourth person was taken

to University Hospital with what appeared to be life-threatening injuries after the shootings, police spokesman Dwight Mitchell said.

Asked if there was a suspect, Mitchell said officers believed everyone involved was account-

ed for but wouldn’t say whether the shooter was among those shot.

He said the shootings took place inside an apartment but declined to say whether there were other people inside at the time.

Duffy, Franks question committee • PENSION Continued from page A1 I’ve been in Springfield. I think this is fixable.”

But Sen. Dan Duffy, R-Lake Barrington, was more pessimistic. He pointed out that the Democrats since January have held supermajorities in both houses, yet could not enact pension reform.

“I have no idea what they think they’re going to accomplish now with a committee,” Duffy said.

The House and Senate passed their own versions of pension reform during the spring session, but neither Madigan nor Cullerton called the other’s bill for a vote. Madigan felt the Senate bill does not go nearly far enough, and Cullerton insisted the House bill violates the pension guarantee in the Illinois Constitution and would not survive a court challenge by the state’s powerful public-sector unions.

Madigan and Cullerton, both Chicago Democrats like Quinn, adopted differing plans to catch up over 30 years on the pension debt after decades of state underfunding and what critics call overly generous benefits. The differences between the two powerful figures overrode the fact that voters last year granted the Democrats supermajorities in both houses, meaning they can pass legislation without Republican votes.

Madigan rewrote a Senate plan that applied only to downstate and suburban teachers.

The House plan increases by 2

percent what state employees must contribute to their pensions, and raises the retirement age for workers younger than 45. It also limits the 3 percent cost-of-living adjustment by calculating it based on $1,000 for each year of work, and raises the year when retirees can be eligible for it.

Cullerton said the House bill blatantly violates the constitutional provision that public pensions “cannot be diminished or impaired.” He crafted a bill, backed by public-sector unions, that gives workers and retirees a choice of either keeping their 3 percent COLA and not getting state health Dan Duffy insurance, or R-Lake keeping health Barrington insurance upon retirement and getting a smaller COLA. Quinn called for a special session the week after lawmakers adjourned, Jack Franks and as two of D-Marengo the three major bond rating agencies further downgraded the state’s credit rating, which is the worst among all 50 states.

“This is an emergency, and the taxpayers of Illinois are depending on the General Assembly to produce a real solution that erases our pension debt and supports economic growth. As I’ve repeatedly made clear, taxpayers cannot afford gridlock on this para-

mount issue,” Quinn said in a statement.

State Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, blasted the plan to create a committee. He said he doubted it will bear fruit because the leaders in charge of making appointments “are the four legislative leaders who couldn’t make a compromise” on pension reform.

And if the committee does produce legislation that manages to pass, Franks said, it will not take effect until June 1, not counting delays caused when lawsuits are filed to strike it down. Given the oft-quoted cost of pension inaction to the state of $17 million a day, that adds up to about $6.2 billion, he said.

“This looks to me like a political stunt designed to show a purpose for a special session in which the governor had no plan,” Franks said.

Tryon, on the other hand, said he does not blame Quinn for the current situation.

“I blame House Speaker Madigan and Senate President Cullerton,” Tryon said.

“This is a chest-beating contest between the two chamber leaders.”

Local lawmakers also questioned the cost of hashing out reform in a special session, each day of which costs Illinois taxpayers at least $40,000.

Lawmakers collect a $100 per diem to defray the cost on top of their annual salaries. Rep. Barbara Wheeler, R-Crystal Lake, said lawmakers had five months to tackle the issue.

“Procedurally, [a special session] had to happen, but if only they had done this five months ago,” Wheeler said.

House votes to cut food stamps by $2 billion WASHINGTON – The House voted Wednesday to cut food stamps by $2 billion a year as part of a wide-ranging farm bill.

The chamber rejected 234-188 a Democratic amendment to

the five-year, half-trillion-dollar farm legislation that would have maintained current spending on food stamps, now called the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. The overall bill cuts the $80 billion-a-year program by about

3 percent and makes it harder for some people to qualify. Many conservatives have said the food stamp cuts do not go far enough since the program has doubled in cost in the last five years and now feeds 1 in 7 Americans.

At MCC, more is a lot better We agree with new McHenry County College Board of Trustees member Chris Jenner that the college is heading in the right direction with its decision to post more information online.

Starting this month, MCC will publish a monthly report of all Freedom of Information Act requests it receives, the outcome of those requests, and how much staff time was required to compile the information.

For the record Transparency is something that Transparency is something most government that most government agenagencies can be cies can be much better at, much better at, including MCC. including MCC. Government officials sometimes forget for whom they work.

Taxpayers pay the bills, including the salaries of these officials. Taxpayers have a right to most of that government information. Given 21st-Century technologies, that information should be readily available.

Unfortunately, some government officials treat FOIA requests as a nuisance. They fight turning over this public information at every turn.

By agreeing to publish a monthly report of FOIA requests online, MCC at the least is acknowledging that the public has the right to this information. Good for them for doing so.

But Jenner wants MCC to go even further with its transparency, and we support those efforts.

Jenner, a former District 26 school board member, wants MCC to provide links to the actual FOIA requests as well as the college’s responses. He’d also like MCC to publish online all contracts the college enters into of more than $25,000 and a check registry that shows all the checks it writes.

These seem like reasonable requests, and we encourage the entire college board to support their implementation.

The more transparent a government agency is, whether it’s MCC or any other, the more trust taxpayers will have in it.

Giving a second chance Getting and keeping a job can help keep reformed criminals out of prison. The honest income makes a difference. But a criminal record can be a barrier to employment.

Some employers are naturally skittish about hiring ex-convicts.

So beginning July 1, Indiana will offer thousands of Hoosiers the opportunity to have their criminal records expunged.

Employers doing background checks wouldn’t be able to see crimes such as drunken driving and drug dealing once the records have been scrubbed. More serious crimes might be marked as expunged but remain public record.

Most of the crimes eligible for expungement are nonviolent. Sex crimes and misconduct of a public official are not eligible to be scrubbed from a criminal record.

However, police still would be able to view these past offenses. That’s important for obvious public safety reasons.

There are strict requirements for expungement, including a court hearing and judicial oversight. Ex-convicts must have a clean record for at least five to eight years, depending on the crime.

Expungement is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, too. No one is allowed to submit a second petition.

It is good to see so many safeguards in place, and that police still will be able to see criminal records. This should not be seen as being soft on crime. Rather, it is about bringing stability to the ex-convict’s life and strengthening public safety as a result.

do with an unexpected extra $1 billion in tax revenues? It increases spending by $2 billion. This fiscal execution is absurd.

Prepare for less revenue To the Editor: As an overburdened taxpayer in McHenry County, I am anxiously awaiting the expiration of the “temporary” 67 percent incometax increase as 2015 creeps closer.

I am wondering what our elected governor, senators and representatives are doing to cut costs in order to let the income-tax increase expire as promised?

For two brief reasons stated below, it’s obvious that Springfield’s legislative (in)actions and increases in spending are evidence that the state will not be financially ready for the decrease in revenue.

1. As top Democrats drag out pension reform – to manipulate the campaign for governor – it is we, the taxpayers, who are picking up the $14 million daily increase in pension debt.

2. What does the Legislature

To the Editor: Americans believe that hard work should be rewarded with fair pay, and workers should be treated with dignity and respect.

However, our current immigration system doesn’t live up to those values, because it allows for a millions of workers in the U.S. to be treated as second class.

These include workers who have valid work visas, but know their employers can fire them for any reason or no reason at all, and they would be required to leave the U.S. immediately. It includes hardworking immigrants who are often paid less than minimum wage and face horrendous working conditions, but are afraid to stand up for their rights for fear that they or their loved ones will be deported.

U.S. citizens who work alongside these immigrants are hurt, too.

Because their co-workers do not have a voice on the job, wages and standards are lower across

It’s time all workers stand together to pass worker-centered, comprehensive reform that includes a roadmap to citizenship.

By allowing immigrant workers basic workplace protections, the freedom to move within labor markets, and a voice in the workplace, unscrupulous employers no longer will be able pursue a race to the bottom in wages and standards by exploiting vulnerable immigrant workers.

Where’s the outrage To the Editor: Benjamin Franklin was a very wise man.

One of the quotations attributed to him needs to be remembered and repeated, time and again, during this period in our nation’s history.

“Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.”

I am reminded of something I learned in high school biology class

for length and clarity at the sole discretion of the editor.

Submit letters by: • E-mail: letters@nwherald.com • Mail: Northwest Herald “It’s Your Write” Box 250 Crystal Lake, IL 60039-0250

that was pretty astounding, and still is. If you put a frog in a pan of cold water on a stove and then gradually turn up the heat, the frog is boiled before it knows what is happening.

What does Franklin’s quotation have in common with the story of the frog? How many freedoms have we given up since Sept. 11 (actually starting before Sept. 11 but accelerating since then)? The recent news that ordinary Americans can have telephone conversations monitored without probable cause should be a splash of cold water in this pan of increasing heat of losing our freedom for the sake of security.

Do we, as Americans, really value our freedoms anymore? Where is our outrage? Where is our public outcry? Where is our passion for our nation founded by people who came to this land seeking freedom? Is security so precious that we are willing to sacrifice everything else?

When I look at my 3-year-old grandson, I wish I could come up with better answers because his future depends upon it.

Legislators should care enough to cast their own votes SPRINGFIELD – For the life of me, I’ll never understand why lawmakers are too lazy to push their own voting buttons.

After all, that’s what we pay them to do: vote on our behalf.

In 1988 when I first covered the Illinois General Assembly, a lawmaker proudly pulled a 7-foot-long piece of No. 9 wire from under his desk and showed me he could not only vote for himself, but also use his wire stick to press the voting buttons on all the empty desks around him – without even getting up from his chair.

The practice of lawmakers having others operate their voting button is not only commonplace – in Illinois, it’s expected.

The Statehouse press corps has

pretty much stopped reporting on the practice. After all, it has been going on for generations.

If you are surprised by this, it’s because you haven’t watched more than five minutes of the Illinois House of Representatives in action.

If you have, you’ve witnessed chaos.

Lawmakers are milling about, folks are gabbing, pages scurrying, secretaries are lugging files, and no one seems to be paying attention to whoever is speaking about a particular bill.

When it’s time to vote, often “lawmakers” don’t bother to walk back to their desks. They expect their buddies sitting nearby to press their voting button. If not another lawmaker, a staffer or whoever

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

VIEWS Scott Reeder else is handy will end up pushing the button.

It’s a routine practice by members of both political parties.

And it shows a cavalier disregard for the solemnity of the process.

When I covered the Nevada Legislature for one of the Las Vegas newspapers, I’d share stories of the voting antics of their counterparts in Illinois.

Legislators there would give me perplexed looks, because they viewed pushing their own voting

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

button as their civic duty.

Every few years there will be a Statehouse tempest that the outcome of a particular vote would have been different if only all the lawmakers were pushing their own buttons.

Such was the case in 2011 when about 20 Democratic lawmakers were off the Illinois House floor attending one of the day’s three scheduled budget briefings and the ComEd “Smart Grid trailer bill,” a bill that would raise electric rates, was called up for a vote.

Even though the lawmakers weren’t in the chamber, someone pushed their voting buttons and votes were cast on their behalf – and the bill passed.

According to media reports at the

time, this is what Gov. Pat Quinn, who opposed the bill, had to say: “The people of Illinois, I think, back home, if they hear that their legislator was letting some staff member vote their switch, or somebody next door to them who wasn’t elected by the people back home, this is not right,” Quinn said. “And the legislators know this.”

Quinn is right.

And yet this type of monkey business continues.

Is it asking too much for legislators to cast their own votes?

TEEN IMPALED BY WOODEN STAKE CARY – A Wauconda teenager is in fair condition after falling off a fence and impaling himself on a wooden stake in Cary on Wednesday.

Cary Fire Lt. Michael Douglass said paramedics responded to 345 Alma Terrace just before 5 p.m. to find a 19-year-old male impaled on a wooden stake after jumping a fence.

Paramedics rushed him to Cary Fire Station No. 1, where it was determined he needed to be transported to a level one trauma center.

The teen was airlifted to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville.

Douglass said he is now in fair condition, meaning he has stable vital signs, is conscious and has a favorable outlook for a full recovery.

Douglass said he could not disclose the teen’s name because of identity protection laws.

Warrant issued for Depner Man who killed four in ’99 crash faces new charges; fails to show in court

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A former McHenry man who killed a woman and her three children in a 1999 drunken-driving crash failed to appear for a scheduled court date on a new DUI charge.

A no-bond warrant was issued for Walter J. Depner, 61, who

is accused of driving under the influence of alcohol and clonazepam, a medication for which prosecutors have said he doesn’t have a prescription.

He was scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday.

Depner, of Mount Prospect, was on parole at the time of his new charges. He spent more than a decade in prison for the

August 1999 crash that killed Eva Burleson, 34, and her three children – Daniel, 13; Tiffany, 11; and Dallis, 7. The family dog also was killed.

Husband and father Thomas Burleson was the only survivor.

The February incident was near the site of the fatal crash.

Authorities said Depner drove off the road in the area

of 905 W. Rand Road/Route 120 near Lakemoor but was found sitting on a couch in a nearby home.

In addition to the aggravated driving under the influence charges, Depner also was charged with driving on a revoked license.

BLAZE DESTROYS MOTOR HOME CARY – An early morning fire destroyed a motor home and a single-car garage in unincorporated McHenry County on Wednesday, but no one was hurt.

Cary Fire Lt. Michael Douglass said the Cary Fire Protection District was dispatched to 719 Main Street Road shortly after 1 a.m. Wednesday to extinguish a fire that had fully engulfed a detached, single-car garage and 30-foot motor home parked next to it.

The fire took 30 minutes to extinguish with the assistance of the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills, Fox River Grove and Nunda Rural fire departments.

Because it was in an unincorporated area, Douglass said it required the use of water tankers because no hydrants were available.

William Maloney, who rents out the property, lost his motor home.

The person Maloney rents the property to was in the house 250 feet away from the garage, Douglass said, and was not injured.

An investigation into the cause of the fire is ongoing.

Camp supports burn survivors Activities, fire safety are focus of event

By OLIVIA GILBERTSEN ogilbertsen@shawmedia.com INGLESIDE – For one week out of the year, the Illinois Fire Safety Alliance hosts a nonprofit camp, I Am Me, for 300-plus children who have been hospitalized for severe burns in Illinois.

Camp I Am Me in Ingleside is a place where young burn survivors can have a chance to feel comfortable in their own skin, have fun with kids who have similar experiences and most importantly be themselves.

“This is my third year coming to I Am Me,” said camper Julie Carzoli, 10. “I love it because I get to see my friends again and the activities they have are really fun.”

The Crystal Lake resident said

her favorite camp activity is archery.

It is something she had never done before attending I Am Me, but has loved it since trying it at camp.

Julie was severely burned when she was 8 years old when she accidentally spilled a hot bowl of soup onto her lap. Her burns start on her stomach and extend to her hip.

The smiling and bubbly little girl said she definitely wants to come back next summer.

Camp I Am Me does not benefit only the campers – it also is rewarding for the many volunteers.

“I was here the very first year they had the annual camp I Am Me in 1991,” said Randy Ahlgrim, a camp volunteer from the Addison

Route 47 improvement Cary to analyze plan enters next phase needs of police

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN

sshinneman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A road project playing dead the last couple of years found a pulse this week.

City officials were told Monday that planned Route 47 improvements from Charles Road in Woodstock to Reed Road in Huntley have made a long-awaited move into phase two, a planning and specifications phase in preparation for the final phase – construction.

The project has for the first time been added to the Illinois Department of Transportation’s multiyear highway plan.

It’s a necessary step, but one that has city officials feeling only slightly more optimistic

for the future.

Mayor Brian Sager adjusted his estimation from about a month ago, that construction was still at least 15 years in the distance.

“If I were to be a little more optimistic, I think it might be a dozen years in the future,” he said, adding the news was “gratifying and very pleasing.”

The project would widen the highway, make changes to increase the flow at intersections and add touches such as sidewalks and bike paths in some areas.

Despite a construction date still seemingly far away, initial planning could begin soon.

VOLO: FUNDRAISER FOR HUNTINGTON’S DISEASE RESEARCH

Hot rods rolling into Volo

By OLIVIA GILBERTSEN ogilbertsen@shawmedia.com VOLO – One in every 10,000 Americans is affected by Huntington’s disease, much like Danielle Karlson-Perrott and her family.

However, few Americans have knowledge about the fatal disease.

“Currently my husband and mother-in-law are Huntington’s disease positive,” said Karlson-Perrott, a board member for the Illinois chapter of Huntington’s Disease Society of America. “My husband, Charles Perrott, was diagnosed in 2007, and his mother, Pamela Perrott, was diagnosed in 2003.”

Huntington’s disease is a genetic, neurological degenerative brain disease.

The disease is always fatal, but each individual is different as to the length of their life and when they begin showing symptoms, Karlson-Perrott said.

“My mother-in-law has barely any symptoms and she is 60 years old, whereas my husband is already showing symptoms and he’s only 29,”

she said. “In most people, symptoms will begin at around age 30.”

The length of life after diagnosis varies. Typically most do not live past 70, but those diagnosed around 30 usually will live only to about 45 or 50 years old, Karlson-Perrott said.

“Huntington’s disease has similar symptoms to Parkinson’s disease or Alzheimer’s,” she said. “Those diagnosed with Huntington’s disease will typically have mind issues, depression, walking issues, develop a stutter, eventually lose speech, have shaky hands, and some can even get overly violent or angry because they do not know what is going on.”

Combining her husband’s love for automobiles and her own interest in charity work, the couple created the Hot Rods for Huntington’s Disease event at the Volo Auto Museum.

“My husband and I wanted to work together and make sure families can have some fun at the event with no pressure,” Karlson-Perrott said.

“We’re not asking for a ton of money. We just want to give the public a good time, spread

awareness and help out as much as we can.”

The charity event will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Volo Auto Museum, 27582 Volo Village Road, Volo.

The event will have a wide range of antique hot rods, muscle cars and even two hearses.

The event will include hundreds of souped-up cars and vintage classic vehicles, live music, a 50/50 raffle and a silent auction. Players from the Chicago Bliss will also be present.

The money raised from the Hot Rods for Huntington’s Disease event will be sent to the Huntington’s Disease Society of America. The money will be used for research, support groups and home care, Karlson-Perrott said.

The public can register cars for the show for $20 or enter the baggo contest, which is $40 per team. General admission costs $13.95 for adults and $8.95 for children.

Camp I Am Me is free for children • CAMP Continued from page B1 Fire Department. “I was at a conference in Galena, Ill., and they were talking about starting something for kids who had been severely burned.”

At first, Ahlgrim was nervous about volunteering at the camp, but now he says he does not notice the scars.

“They’re just regular kids,” he said.

The camp helps the children with their self-esteem and provides them with a safe and nonthreatening environment where they can be normal kids, Ahlgrim said.

“This camp gives me a good perspective of things,” Ahlgrim said. “I used to be a paramedic, and I would see burn victims for 20 minutes in the ambulance. This gives me a chance to see the survivors after the fact.”

For many of the campers, this will be the only week they will feel confident enough to wear a swimsuit. The emotional impact the camp has on the kids is wonderful, he added.

The camp tries to find kids by going to hospitals, social services and rehabilitation facilities. The camp takes kids between the ages of 8 and 16 and will give older teens a chance to become camp counselors.

I Am Me includes activities such as a parade of firetrucks from all parts of Illinois, a

Visit the camp Larry Matkaitis, executive director for the state fire marshal and I Am Me volunteer for the past six years, says the most important thing fire departments do at I Am Me is support the kids by volunteering and raising funds to help support the camp.

“These kids know the devastation fires can have on someone’s life.

Eighty to 90 percent of fires are house fires in Illinois,” Matkaitis said.

“That is why I am trying to update Illinois’ codes to require sprinkler systems to be installed” in new buildings.

Matkaitis encourages the public to visit camp I Am Me, at YMCA Camp Duncan, 32405 N. Route 12, Ingleside, to support the kids. Each year there is an Appreciation Day for the public to come and visit. The next visitation day will be around this time next year.

Camp I Am Me is funded through donations at no cost to the kids. The camp provides free transportation and will buy campers anything they may need for their weeklong stay, he said.

“The staff here at camp are volunteers who are taking a week away from their families or using up their paid vacation days. We currently have 67 weeklong volunteers,” Ahlgrim said.

I Am Me used to be called simply “burn camp,” but about 10 years ago, a camper suggested changing the name to I Am Me because it was a

place where the kids could just be themselves. “Burn camp” was not something they wanted to talk about, Ahlgrim said.

“We have kids who have been burned in many different ways,” Ahlgrim said with tears welling up in his eyes.

“Scalding is most common.

However, 10 to 15 percent of campers’ burns are due to child neglect or child abuse.

So many of these kids’ burns were preventable, so that is why we push education on fire safety.”

“It would be great to ultimately put ourselves out of business,” Ahlgrim added.

“We want kids being severely burned to stop, and we are trying to accomplish just that by spreading awareness and fire safety, and by giving those kids who were burned a place to be themselves.”

Waiting game ahead for phase 3 as well • ROUTE 47 Continued from page B1 The state included $1 million toward engineering for the stretch from Charles Road to Route 14 in its 2014 budget.

It budgeted an additional $1 million to start planning the

stretch from Route 14 to Reed Road in Huntley.

Engineering costs for those projects will be an estimated $17 million – money the state will have to commit simply to get the project ready for phase three. Once it is, it will likely be another waiting game. But the sooner the project reach-

es that point the better, which is why Interim Public Works Director Jeff Van Landuyt is cautiously encouraged by the latest development.

“If it sits there ‘shovel ready,’ it’s one of those they can pick and choose based on the amount of money they have available,” he said.

Study to be paid for using savings • CARY Continued from page B1 The study is expected to take between five and seven weeks to complete.

The study comes as the village works to replace former Police Chief Steven Casstevens, who left to become the police chief of Buffalo Grove. Deputy Chief Ed Fetzer is serving as acting chief.

When the village will decide who will be Casstevens’ permanent replacement has yet to be determined.

Village President Mark Kownick said the outside analysis will include speaking with employees in the records office, officers and elected officials.

“With the transition to a potential new chief of police, we want to get a real good understanding of what’s going on in our department,” he said.

The cost of the study itself wasn’t budgeted, but there is money for professional con-

sulting services. Village Administrator Chris Clark added the study will have to be paid for with other savings.

The study will look at what concerns exist at the patrol level and the command staff, and what expectations and goals exist for the department, Kownick said.

“We want to make sure we’re making the right decision, and we’re looking at all aspects of the department, to make sure it’s healthy,” he said.

Kownick said he was excited about the study.

“It’s going to bring a lot of credibility to our department. Things are going very well in the department,” Kownick said. “When you’re going to make a transition right now, you want to make sure you’re looking at everything.”

A few weeks ago, some board members pushed for having the police chief report directly to the Village Board, rather than to the village administrator. Some

trustees said it would allow for better communication from the police department and eliminate any filtering.

That push was unsuccessful.

Kownick said this study was not a product of that discussion.

“I believe the police department should report directly to the village administrator because it streamlines it,” Kownick said. “Chris Clark is in the office all day long. We all have outside jobs.”

“We have a very credible police department. ... The day-to-day questions of personnel, and budgetary, it all needs to be focused and streamlined to one person,” Kownick added.

Kownick did not put a timeline on naming a replacement for Casstevens.

“I’d like to do it sooner than later, but we’re going to do it in conjunction hopefully with the ... operational analysis,” he said.

Kownick expects to hire a search firm to help with the chief selection.

ALGONQUIN: CONSERVATION AREA PROPOSALS

Scuba diving, wakeboarding Open house set for Thursday on Fox Bluff recreation plan suggested for Three Oaks

By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Crystal Lake City Council members are considering major expansions to Three Oaks Recreation Area, including a scuba facility and a wakeboard park.

Council members gave city officials the OK to apply for a state grant that could fund up to 50 percent of a roughly $400,000 scuba area project at the 400-plus-acre park. To receive the Open Space Land Acquisition and Development Grant, the city would need to show it has 100 percent of the funding necessary to complete the project and it must be completed within the established time frame.

Scuba diving has been in high demand since the city converted the former Vulcan Lakes gravel pits into the $14.3 million major boating, fishing and swimming destination.

Deputy City Manager Eric Helm said the proposed scuba

diving area would be on the east side of the marina in the south lake.

Helm said the area would include a pier and shoreline modifications to provide the best diving experience. He said there are no plans to rent any equipment, but the area would quickly become a prime destination for scuba enthusiasts.

“The water clarity is really unparalleled in northern Illinois,” Helm said. “There are not many public scuba diving facilities, so it would be a unique amenity.”

Crystal Lake firm Copley McGinnis Group has been charged with developing a conceptual plan for a wakeboard park. Wakeboard parks require a series of cables and pulleys connected to towers that pull boarders along the water similar to water skiing.

The cables are electric-powered.

Charles Copley, one of the developers, said the park would be on a corner of the north lake and require five

to six towers, which they said would blend with existing architecture. The park also would have a small parking lot and concession stand.

With only about 17 parks in the country and the nearest wakeboard locations in Cincinnati and Kansas City, Copley said the facility would draw people from Wisconsin, Indiana and all over the region.

“There is no negative part to this,” he said. “It is going to draw people from all over and help Three Oaks become a major destination.”

Helm said that if plans go smoothly, the proposed park could be open next year, but there would be no rush through the process because it is important to maintain the aesthetics of the park.

“The main focus is keeping Three Oaks looking beautiful and pristine,” he said.

“There will be different ways to help make it blend in, but the emphasis will be making it fit into that beautiful landscape.”

Between June 1, 2001, and Nov. 11, 2012, Vidigaray had sexual contact at least twice with the victim, who was younger than 17.

Vidigaray was given credit for 218 days served in the Kane County Jail, where he was held on $500,000 bond.

Hyrkas, an 18-year veteran with the department, has served as a criminal investigator, staff sergeant, and most recently operations commander where he headed the Target Response Unit and internal affairs.

cluded a council ring, trails, a garden and native landscaping, all of which the final draft proposes incorporating.

A new addition to the plan is coordination with the McHenry County Historical Society to preserve historical artifacts and one of the buildings, a small counselors cabin built in the 1950s, said Kurt Begalka, the society’s administrator.

Under the plan, the other buildings – a collection of buildings dating to the early 1900s from a variety of different camps at the site over the years – would be demolished.

Salvaged material would be used to create new shelters and trellis structures.

The final draft is similar to the preferred plan presented to the public in February, conservation district spokeswoman Wendy Kummerer said. Staff also prepared three alternative plans.

All the plans proposed providing kayak and canoe access at the Fox River along with a paved trail leading to a pier, recognizing the Gillilan farmstead as a historical area, developing a pedestrian trail system and incorporating some elements from the historical original plan for the 20 acres that make up Camp Algonquin.

That plan, dated February 1911, was designed by the well-regarded landscape architect Jens Jenson. It in-

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com LOCAL&REGION SUV flips after 2-car wreck in Crystal Lake Judge rejects court date change

Page B4 • Thursday, June 20, 2013

• WARRANT Continued from page B1 He posted $6,000 bail to be released from McHenry County Jail shortly after his most recent arrest, but was taken to the Illinois Department of Corrections custody on a parole hold. He since has been released.

Mike Krebs – mkrebs@shawmedia.com

An SUV rolled over Wednesday after it collided with another vehicle at the intersection of Congress Parkway and Exchange Drive in Crystal Lake. One person suffered a leg injury as a result of the collision, police said. Eastbound traffic on Congress Parkway was briefly shut down to clear the accident.

GOLDEN EAGLE

Before issuing the warrant for his arrest, McHenry County Judge Gordon Graham rejected a request from Depner’s defense attorney, Ed Donahue, to move his client’s court date to Thursday.

“The defendant should have been released a week and a half ago,” Assistant State’s Attorney David Metnick said. “The defendant

should have known about this court date.”

After being sentenced in 2003 to 14 years, McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather called Depner’s case “without a doubt the most egregious case of reckless homicide in the history of McHenry County.”

He was released on parole in June 2011.

JESSE B. PORTER JR. Born: Nov. 20, 1930; in Chicago Died: June 17, 2013; in Lake Havasu City, Ariz.

JOHNSBURG – Harvey V. Palmer, 91, of Johnsburg, died Monday, June 17, 2013, at his home.

He was born March 27, 1922, in Oak Park, the son of Harvey V. and Violet (Hilmer) Palmer. On Nov. 14, 1943, he married Wanda G. Jepsen at Ivanhoe Church in Mundelein.

Raised and educated in Crystal Lake, Harvey served his country during World War II with the U.S. Army Air Corps Air Cargo Resupply Squadron in the Philippines.

He received the Asiatic Pacific Campaign medal with two bronze battle stars, the Philippine Liberation Ribbon with one bronze star, a good conduct medal, Air Medal, Meritorious Service Medal and World War II Victory Medal.

Following his military service, he enjoyed a long career in the tool and die industry, working at Auto-Lite in Woodstock.

Prior to retiring at age 63 from Auto-Lite, he and his wife, Wanda, realized a lifelong dream by building and founding their business, Palmer’s Four Seasons Gift Shop in Johnsburg in 1973.

The store was a family operation, and Harvey loved the interaction with his customers of all ages. He thoroughly enjoyed his retirement years doing everything needed at the store, otherwise referred to as his honey-do list. He worked there until the age of 87 when the store closed.

A true gentleman and a wonderful family man, Harvey was always there for his family. If anyone needed anything, Harvey never hesitated to help. A loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and brother, he will be dearly missed by his entire family.

Survivors include his wife of nearly 70 years, Wanda; three children, Sandra (Richard) Kollenkark of Johnsburg, Linda (Dennis) Petersen of McHenry and Rocky (Donna) Palmer of McHenry; nine grandchildren, Tami (John) Pawlik, Wayne (Mary) Kollenkark, Shane (Shereen) Petersen, Jason Petersen, Derek Palmer, Hanna Mays, Vaughn Mays, Sarah (Brian) Dulek and Megan Boyle; eight great-grandchildren, Josh and Ben Pawlik, Luke and Isaac Kollenkark, Ethan and Rilea Petersen and Kierra and Caden Dulek; and a brother, Robert (Patricia) Palmer of Elmwood Park.

– Jesse B. Porter Jr., 82, of Lake Havasu City, Ariz., and formerly of Wilmette, Northbrook and Three Lakes, Wis., died Monday, June 17, 2013, at his home in Lake Havasu City.

He was born Nov. 20, 1930, in Chicago, to Jesse B. and Sarah (Berry) Porter. In the early 1940s, his family moved to Skokie, where he graduated from Niles Township High School in 1949. After one year at Southern Illinois University, he enlisted in the Army. He served until 1955 and was discharged as a 1st Lieutenant.

Jesse joined his father’s business, Uptown Dental Laboratory, as a dental technician from which he retired as president in 1997. As well as being a devoted husband, father, grandfather, friend and neighbor, he was an avid musky fisherman, hunter and trap shooter. He loved boating, snowmobiling and spending time with his children and grandchildren.

He is survived by his wife, Barbara E. (Sjostrom) Porter; three children, Jesse B. “Chip” (Sherry) Porter of Lake Zurich, Matthew R. Porter of McHenry and Pamela A. (Dan) Mahachek of Arlington Heights; four stepchildren, David Barnard, Lisa (Greg) Risinger, Lynn (Jim) O’Toole and Laura (P.J.)

BLACKH AW KS 6

GAME 4

BR UI NS 5 (OT)

SERIES TIED AT 2 Hawks quick hits WHAT WORKED Secondary scoring: The Hawks used an impressive collection of contributors, getting goals from Michal Handzus, Marcus Kruger and in overtime, Brent Seabrook, and huge assists from Brandon Saad, Michael Frolik and Michal Rozsival.

The power play: This is not a misprint.

After three games of ineptitude, the Hawks finally established some chemistry on their problematic power play. Whether it carries over to Game 5 is yet to be seen.

But for once, the unit found a way to make things work.

Top line players: Even if Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane didn’t hear chatter that they have been invisible during the Stanley Cup Final, both responded with impressive goals, proving that big players do respond in big games.

WHAT DIDN’T WORK

AP photo

Blackhawks center Jonathan Toews (19) watches the winning goal by teammate Brent Seabrook (not shown) sail past Boston Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask during the first overtime period in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday in Boston. Chicago won, 6-5, to even the series at 2.

ANOTHER TWIST Hawks’ crazy OT win reduces series to best of 3 Hawks insider

VIEWS Tom Musick

BLACKHAWKS 6, BRUINS 5 (OT)

BOSTON – Four games. Five overtimes.

Seventeen periods. Twenty-three goals. Three hundred and 14 minutes and 47 seconds.

Crazy.

All of it, crazy.

And the Blackhawks’ postseason roller coaster has plenty of track remaining.

Some how, some way, the Hawks managed to escape TD Garden with a 6-5 overtime win Wednesday in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final.

Brent Seabrook’s game-winner at 9:51 of overtime evened the series at 2 with Game 5 set for Saturday in Chicago.

“I don’t think it matters where we play,” Hawks forward Patrick Sharp said before boarding the team’s late-night return flight. “It’s going to be an even series.”

Except it can’t be.

Someone will have to win. Someone will have to lose.

Any ideas as to which someone will beat the other someone?

Who knows? Flip a puck.

If Game 3 resembled a defensive chess match, then Game 4 resembled something like Skee-Ball at the pizza place. The teams combined for two goals in the first period, five goals in the second period and three goals in the third period before Seabrook fired a 59-foot shot past Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask on the Hawks’ 47th shot of the game.

At one point late in the second period, the goal horn belched in baritone to signal that the Bruins had tied the game. Except they hadn’t.

The puck was in play.

Forgive the horn jockey. Any one of us could have committed the same mistake. After all, it was difficult to discern actual goals from imagined goals during the frenzied – and, admit it,

Tipping point: As a wild game approached its 10th minute of overtime, Brent Seabrook saw an opening and ripped a shot from 59 feet past the outstretched leg of Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask. Seabrook’s goal at 9:51 of extra time evened the series and marked his second overtime goal of the postseason.

Lamplighters: Michal Handzus opened the scoring with his third goal of the playoffs, while Jonathan Toews snapped a 10-game scoring drought when he deflected a Michal Rozsival shot for his second playoff goal. Patrick Kane (7), Marcus Kruger (3) and Patrick Sharp (10) also beat Rask before Seabrook’s game-winner in overtime.

Between the pipes: Corey Crawford suffered his worst game of the playoffs, allowing five goals on 33 shots. All five of the Bruins’ goals beat Crawford gloveside, and it was clear that Boston knew to keep firing shots in the direction of Crawford’s glove.

Under the radar: The Hawks matched the Bruins in faceoffs after a Game 3 debacle in which they lost 71 percent of their attempts. In Game 4, the Hawks won 38 faceoffs while the Bruins won 39.

kind of fun – action between the teams.

Perhaps “fun” is an overstatement. Let’s go with “entertaining.”

“I hope it was entertaining for you guys,” Hawks defenseman Niklas Hjalmarsson said.

“Personally, I didn’t really like that at all, as a defenseman. Five goals against is too much for me, personally. I was on the ice for three of them.

“As long as we win, I’ll be minus-3 every single game. I’m just happy we won the game.”

You and a few million Hawks fans.

The Hawks’ offense was stellar – welcome to the scoresheet, Jonathan Toews – but the team’s typically stout defense was heinous. Then again, so was Boston’s.

Twice, the Hawks led by two goals. Twice, the

Bruins clawed back.

Which brings us to Corey Crawford and whether he can return to form in Game 5.

The Hawks’ goaltender had been so reliable in the playoffs, but he unraveled in Game 4, much to the delight of 17,565 fans who jeered him with each fresh failure. In a town that needed two decades to forgive Bill Buckner for grievous glove work, Crawford almost fully neglected the piece of leather in his left hand.

He was allowed to use the glove if he so desired. At least, I thought so.

A dip into the NHL rulebook – Rule 11.6: “Catching Glove” – shed some insight.

“A maximum perimeter of 45 inches is permitted,” the rulebook said. “The wrist cuff must be 4 inches in width. The cuff of the glove is considered to be the portion of the glove protecting the wrist from the point where the thumb joint meets the wrist.”

There must be a loophole. Everything has a loophole.

Perhaps Crawford could have ditched his glove for another piece of equipment that complied with the NHL’s measurements. What if he gripped his stick in one hand and held a tennis racket in the other? Or an oven mitt? Or a foam finger?

Anything. Anything at all.

Crawford swatted away doubts much better than he swatted away pucks.

“Just stick with it, stick with it,” Crawford said.

“No matter what happens, there will be nights where it’s high scoring. We all stuck with it.”

The strategy worked, eventually.

The Hawks scored one more goal than the Bruins.

The Stanley Cup Final has been reduced to a best-of-three series.

Crazy.

All of it, crazy.

HAWKS NOTES

Teammates come to Hossa’s defense

By TOM MUSICK tmusick@shawmedia.com BOSTON – Blackhawks forward Andrew Shaw is happy to take on towering defenseman Zdeno Chara, so it came as no surprise when he challenged those who questioned his teammate’s toughness.

Namely, former Hawks forward Tony Amonte, who criticized Marian Hossa for missing Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final because of an upper-body injury. Regarding Hossa, Amonte told a Boston radio station that during the finals, “I think you play until you can’t play anymore.”

Shaw snickered as he described Hossa to anyone who didn’t know the 14-year veteran. Hossa returned to the lineup Wednesday for Game 4 and joined a line with Michal Handzus and Patrick Sharp.

“He’s a warrior, man,” Shaw said. “He’s played a lot of hockey. It’s unbelievable how much he’s played and how much he battles and what he battles through. He’s a great player.”

That message resonated throughout the Hawks’ locker room.

Plenty of former players such as Denis Savard, Eddie Olczyk and Troy Murray routinely visit the locker room and mingle with players. The same cannot be said for Amonte, who played for the Hawks from 1993 to 2002 in addition to stints with the New York Rangers, Phoenix Coyotes, Philadelphia Flyers and Calgary Flames.

Hawks forward Patrick Kane said Hossa’s toughness could not be questioned. Hossa has played in 1,018 regular-season games since entering the NHL in 1998 with the Ottawa

Senators.

“A lot of those guys can say what they want, but they don’t really know what’s going on and what the situation is,” Kane said. “Sometimes, if you don’t know what’s going on, you’re better off to not say anything at all and just let it play out the way it is.

“It’s the Stanley Cup Final.

Everyone is playing through injuries, bruises and scars, whatever it may be. Everyone is trying to do their best to get out there and play as best as they can.

“Sometimes, it’s just something you can’t do.”

Waiting and ready: Hawks forward Jamal Mayers skated with the second line during morning skate in place of Hossa, who was the only player on the team to miss the session.

Mayers appeared in 19 games during the regular sea-

son and has not played since April 27. Rather than sulk, the 38-year-old forward has embraced a vocal leadership role in the locker room while often being one of the last players to come off of the ice after practice.

“It’s the reason why I’ve been riding the bike and skating and staying ready,” Mayers said. “I didn’t want to have regrets. I decided that I would stay ready and be ready to go if I was called upon.”

No thanks: Because of Mayers’ leadership role and his knowledge of the game, some have suggested that he could become a successful coach when his playing days are finished.

Mayers wasted little time eliminating that possibility.

“Absolutely not,” Mayers said. “For one reason: the time commitment away from your family.”

Penalty kill: Normally, any special teams criticism is reserved for the power play. But on Wednesday, the penalty kill yielded two goals – even though one was of the fluke variety. The Hawks’ penalty killers didn’t make life easy for Corey Crawford and will need to improve if the Hawks are going to regain control of the series Saturday.

The mindset: The Hawks came out blazing, playing with a level of desperation that teams trailing a series need to.

The big issue, though, was their ability to protect, or more importantly, build on leads. There’s no way Game 4 should have gone to overtime and it should provide a valuable lesson moving forward.

Discipline: The Hawks took their share of bad penalties, starting with Duncan Keith, who nullified a power play before Kane was called for a hook with the Hawks, leading by two goals.

STARS OF THE GAME Brent Seabrook: Seabrook scores the game-winner 9:51 into overtime, knotting the series at two games apiece.

Patrick Kane: Kane had a goal and an assist on Seabrook’s game-winner.

Bryan Bickell: He added some physical play to the Hawks’ attack and had two assists.

GAME 3

BR UI NS 5 (OT)

Thursday, June 20, 2013 • Page C3

SERIES TIED AT 2

Hawks overcome adversity to even Stanley Cup The Blackhawks looked like they had it won with two separate two-goal leads. Then they looked like they had lost it. But they didn’t give up and are coming home tied at 2 in the series. Sports editor Jon Styf and reporter Jeff Arnold discuss:

Styf: A win is all the Blackhawks needed and they got it. But wow, that was ugly. A great game to watch for an unattached fan. A tough way to win for a Hawks team that should have put it away much earlier.

Arnold: Not sure I would call it ugly, but instead, just really intense playoff hockey. Games like this are why people who don’t watch hockey all year long watch it now. It played

out like a Game 7 rather than a Game 4. Serious edge-of-your-seat stuff. But like you said, the bottom line is that the Hawks found a way to overcome some adversity and get back to even.

Styf: When the puck flies over the net, hits somewhere near the glass and then bounces back for a goal, I’ll call it ugly every time.

This isn’t H-O-R-S-E or one of those old McDonald’s commercials where Larry Bird and Michael Jordan play H-O-R-S-E. Arnold: I know you’re not a big hockey guy, but that’s called puck luck. Joel Quenneville hates that

TAKE 2 Jeff Arnold and Jon Styf face off term, but that’s what they call it.

Strange stuff like that tends to happen in the playoffs and so you might as well embrace it. Secondary scoring played a major role in helping the Hawks get back home even. Does the momentum shift back in the Hawks’ favor now?

Styf: Of course it does, but you know that. I can’t stand the whole

sports radio-driven series momentum thing. You have to win four before you lose four, simple as that. Each team has one mullgan left. We’ll see if the Hawks have to use their get out of jail card after Saturday. I would say they won’t.

Arnold: I disagree. When you win a game like they did Wednesday and now that Toews can stop asking questions from know-it-alls like Tom Musick and myself about his inability to score a goal, some energy usually goes with that. Between that, a jacked up United Center crowd and the fact that they feel like they

dodged a huge bullet in Boston, I think it’s enough to take a 3-2 series lead. Finishing the deal in Boston early next week, though, could be a different story.

Styf: You’re over-estimating the importance of your questions, Jeff.

The players don’t put much stock in those. If they did, I agree, they would have issues. Back to hockey, though.

This series is now guaranteed to reach at least six games. Can’t complain about that, right?

Arnold: I can’t, but I’m not the one footing the bill for our columnist having to make a return trip to Boston.

Styf: I hear it’s beautiful there this time of year. Hope I at least get a postcard.

STANLEY CUP FINAL: GAME 4

Hawks at Bruins B-

Hawks’ even-strength attack vs. Bruins’ defense

Hawks

The Blackhawks offense emerged from its Game 3 no-show, putting the kind of pressure on Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask that they couldn’t seem to Monday. The puck movement was crisp and the Hawks decision-making appeared to be at a different level. As important as it was for Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane to get off the scoring schneid, it was even more vital that the Hawks got contributions from players like Michal Handzus, Marcus Kruger and Brent Seabrook, relying on the depth that made the Hawks so dangerous earlier in the playoffs.

“Zdeno Chara down and out on his hands & knees with Bickell & Toews camped out in front of on goal. Dont see that very often#BruinsTalk” - @HackswithHaggs (CSN New England)

B

“First time in this year’s playoffs that Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane have scored in the same game.”

- @jessespector “The Bruins do NOT like trailing by two goals.”

- @bruce_arthur (National Post)

Bruins’ even-strength attack vs. Hawks’ defense

B+

Boston shook off a miserable offensive start and seemed to gain momentum from its power play unit, which produced two goals. Torey Krug and Rich Peverley remained active and Patrice Bergeron constantly put himself in the right place and became a constant nuisance on Corey Crawford. At times, it seemed as if the Bruins had an extra skater, finding holes in the Hawks defense and never allowing Crawford to get comfortable.

B

Breaking news: It is humanly possible for the Hawks to score on the power play as Patrick Sharp finally ended what seemed to be an 0-for-forever drought. Even before Sharp scored in the third period, the Hawks were able to generate many more chances with a man advantage than they had at any other point in the series. The unit was still far from great, but there was vast improvement and for the Hawks, that’s good news.

B+

The Bruins have made major strikes since the series began and found ways to keep constant pressure on Crawford. Boston, which, at times, played textbook power play hockey, sending the puck from point to point, keeping the Hawks defensemen guessing. Boston got goals from Peverley and Bergeron, even using a fortuitous bounce off the back glass to again cut into a Hawks’ lead.

C

Crawford wasn’t nearly as sharp as he had been during the series’ first three games. He seemed to be slow to respond to shots and, despite being shielded, he failed to make saves that at other times in the playoffs would be considered routine. Until Wednesday, Crawford hadn’t showed a tendency toward giving up soft goals like he did in the playoffs last year. Game 4 was a step back.

Rask entered the game having stopped 61 of the past 62 shots he faced. But the Hawks put more shots on goal and forced Rask to move around the crease more than he had in the previous two games. More importantly, they were able to find creative angles to push shots past Rask and seemed to rattle a goaltender who had been, for the most part, unsolvable since the Hawks’ Game 1 victory.

C+

Goaltending

Hawks coach Joel Quenneville is about as even-keeled of a coach as there is and if there was any panic in his team, he didn’t show it. The Hawks’ impressive start shows Quenneville had them in the right mindset and despite what appeared to be a lack urgency at times, Quenneville can’t be blamed for the lapses the Hawks experienced. Until Seabrook’s game-winner in overtime, the Bruins played like a team that felt like it was in control of the series. Now it’s even coming back to Chicago.

Woods to rest elbow, skip AT&T National

Cary-Grove’s Emily Jean putts on the second hole Wednesday during the McHenry County Junior Golf Association’s Red Tail Open at the Redtail Golf Course in Lakewood. Jean came in first with a 42.

MCJGA: RED TAIL OPEN

Confident Jean wins Red Tail Open title

By MAREK MAKOWSKI marekmakowski@shawmedia.com LAKEWOOD – When Emily Jean finished her ninth and final hole at Wednesday’s Red Tail Open, she wasn’t as content as she had hoped.

“I feel that I could have done a lot better,” the CaryGrove junior said.

But Jean’s play spoke for itself at the end of the tournament as she placed first in the Senior Girls Division with a score of 42.

“I feel like, this year, I’m much more consistent,” she said. “Even if I feel I didn’t do well, the score still ended up pretty good.”

Jean entered the tournament with newfound confidence that she lacked when she played it last year. A year ago, she won with a 47 in the Junior Girls Division.

“I felt pretty good,” she said. “I was pretty confident plus I’ve been doing pretty well in the last couple of tournaments.”

her streak of consistent play, which includes a third-place finish at last week’s GCI Open, where she also shot a 42.

“I feel a lot more confident when I’m consistent,” she said.

Jean edged out Huntley’s Gillian Young and Crystal Lake South’s Bailey Bostler, who both finished at 43. In the Girls Junior Division, Sophia Archos (50) placed first ahead of Lauren Kalamaras (54), Maddie Ogden (56), and Hannah Ogden (77).

Ben Melms (76) won the 30-person Junior Boys Divi-

sion by a stroke over Ryan Wick.

In the Senior Boys Division, Matt Haussmann’s day-low 75 earned him the first-place trophy. “[I made] a couple mistakes, but nothing big,” Haussmann said.

Jack Ramsett and Ethan Farnam finished second and third, respectively, with 76 strokes apiece. Huntley’s Brad Spoeth, who placed first and second in the McHenry County Junior Golf Association’s first two golf tournaments of the summer, finished fifteenth (83).

“I struggled a little today,” Spoeth said. “I got unlucky with the bunkers.”

Spoeth, however, feels that his play today won’t faze him heading into the next week of tournaments.

“All year, I’ve been hitting the ball really solid,” the senior said. “Pinecrest is my home course, [and] I’ve won there two years in a row, so hopefully I can keep that going.”

NBA FINALS GAME 7: SAN ANTONIO AT MIAMI, 8 P.M. THURSDAY, ABC

LeBron excited for title-deciding game

By TIM REYNOLDS The Associated Press MIAMI – LeBron James could not sleep after Game 6.

Imagine, then, how frayed his emotions will be going into Game 7.

So much is at stake. Legacies, for so many players, James included. The NBA championship. Whether the season was a success or a bust. How he will be portrayed over the next few months. How history will judge a Miami Heat team that won 27 straight games in one stretch, 66 games in the regular season and now 81 games overall.

Although the Heat will insist otherwise, the common belief is that it all hinges on James’ shoulders. And the four-time NBA MVP wouldn’t have it any other way when his Heat take on the San Antonio Spurs in Game 7 of the NBA Finals on Thursday.

SPURS 3, HEAT 3 GAME 1 – June 6 San Antonio 92, Miami 88 GAME 2 – June 9 Miami 103, San Antonio 84 GAME 3 – June 11 San Antonio 113, Miami 77 GAME 4 – Thursday Miami 109, San Antonio 93 GAME 5 – Sunday San Antonio 114, Miami 104 GAME 6 – Tuesday Miami 103, San Antonio 100, OT GAME 7 @ Miami 8 p.m. Thursday, ABC “I want to go down as one of the greatest. I want our team to go down as one of the greatest teams. And we have an opportunity to do that,” James said. “Hasn’t been

many teams to win back-toback championships. It’s so hard. It’s the hardest thing. I said last year it was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, winning my first. Last year don’t even come close to what we’ve gone through in this postseason and in these Finals.”

James was so weary afterward that he had trouble pulling himself up from the chair where he conducted postgame interviews. But on Wednesday, even after a night of no sleep – “everything goes through your mind after a game,” he said – James said he was already feeling more spry than he was the night before.

More rest, more treatment, some time at home with family and friends and a scheduled date to watch SpongeBob with his kids, James figured that was the right formula to get ready for Game 7.

His second ring is 48 minutes away. If it comes, it will be earned.

In little more than a month, Tiger Woods went from being tough to beat to having a tough time even playing.

Woods said Wednesday that soreness in his left elbow would keep him from defending his title next week in the AT&T National at Congressional, and that he would not compete again until the British Open next month at Muirfield.

This is the sixth straight year that injury has kept him from ei- Tiger Woods ther playing a tournament or finishing one.

The culprit this time is a strain in his left elbow. The problem first became apparent during the opening round of the U.S. Open last week at Merion, when he was flexing his left wrist or dangling his arm behind his back after shots out of the thick, punishing rough.

“I was examined after I returned home from the U.S. Open, and the doctors determined I have a left elbow strain,” Woods said on his website. “I have been advised to take a few weeks off, rest and undergo treatment. I’ll be ready to go for the British Open, and I’m looking forward to playing at Muirfield.”

His injury is a blow to the AT&T National, which benefits the Tiger Woods Foundation. This will be the third time since it began in 2007 that Woods has missed the tournament because of injury – knee surgery in 2008, his left Achilles tendon in 2011 and an elbow injury this year.

“Any time you have Ti-

ger in the field, it certainly adds to it a lot,” tournament director Greg McLaughlin said. “But we have a very nice field this year and we look forward to a great AT&T National.”

Masters champion Adam Scott and U.S. Open champion Justin Rose are among those scheduled to play.

McLaughlin said Woods is to be at Congressional at least on Wednesday to take part in the opening ceremonies.

Woods was not specific about when or how the latest injury happened. He first showed signs of being hurt after hitting shots in the rough during the rain-delayed opening round at Merion, though he told a USGA official it was “fine” when he left the course Thursday.

After finishing the first round Friday morning, he said only that the reason he grimaced after shots out of the rough was because of “pain” and that he felt it on a few shots. That afternoon, he revealed that he first hurt his elbow at The Players Championship, but he declined to say which round or on what kind of shot. Woods won The Players Championship on May 12 for the first time in 12 years. It was his fourth PGA Tour win of the season.

Woods picked up those four in just eight starts worldwide, and the win at Sawgrass was his third victory in his last four tournaments. The exception was the Masters, where he tied for fourth, four shots out of a playoff.

The British Open is July 18 through 21 at Muirfield, where Woods’ bid for the calendar Grand Slam ended in 2002 when he was caught in nasty weather. Woods shot 81 in the third round – 10 players failed to break 80 – for his highest score as a pro.

Body near Patriot’s home was semi-pro athlete’s BOSTON – A Boston woman said her son was the man found dead in an industrial park about a mile from New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez’s home in Massachusetts.

Ursula Ward said police told her the body was that of her son Odin Lloyd. He was a semi-pro football player for the Boston Bandits.

Police have been at Hernandez’s home in North Attleborough for two days. Sports Illustrated cited an unidentified source in reporting that Hernandez was not believed to be a suspect in a possible homicide. Hernandez’s attorney says his client is not commenting for now.

Biffle, Edwards not on same page after race BROOKLYN, Mich. – Greg Biffle was thrilled after his victory last weekend in Michigan.

Teammate Carl Edwards was a little bit miffed.

Biffle’s Sprint Cup victory gave Ford Motor Co. 1,000 wins across NASCAR’s three national series – Cup, Nationwide and Truck. Not every Ford driver raced as well as he’d hoped.

Edwards, the pole winner, finished eighth and said there was a point in the race when he wished Biffle would have dropped back to help him clean off his grille. The two both drive for Roush Fenway Racing.

Next for the Cubs Cubs at St. Louis, 7:15 p.m. Thursday, WGN, AM-720 Edwin Jackson (3-9) was pulled after he hit Jon Jay following Molina’s blast to left field. He pitched 5⅓ innings, allowing four earned runs on six hits. He struck out one and walked two.

Allen Craig reached in the fifth after second baseman’s Darwin Barney’s throw on

the back end of a double-play attempt went to the Cardinals dugout. Molina drove a 1-2 pitch just over the outfield wall to improve to 9 of 15 with three homers against Jackson.

Jay went to third on a hit-and-run with Daniel Descalso singling to right and scored on a hit from Pete Kozma to give St. Louis a 4-1 lead.

Westbrook retired the Cubs in order in the first and seventh innings, allowing at least one to reach in the five innings between. He faced the minimum in three of those five innings. Two

runners were erased on inning-ending double plays and Luis Valbuena was caught stealing on a pitch out for the first out of the third.

Anthony Rizzo opened the second with a single and went to third when second baseman Matt Carpenter’s throw to start a potential double play sailed over the Kozma’s head and into leftfield.

Rizzo tagged up on a sacrifice fly from Barney and scored after knocking the ball out of Molina’s glove.

Carpenter singled to start the first and scored on Craig’s hit to center.

By DAVE CAMPBELL The Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS – Justin Morneau homered for the first time in almost two months, a two-run shot that helped the Minnesota Twins to a 7-4 victory over the White Sox on Wednesday.

Morneau’s third homer of the season followed an RBI single by Josh Willingham in the sixth off Deunte Heath after ace Chris Sale’s night ended after five shaky innings. Morneau last went deep April 28. The 2006 AL MVP has three seasons of 30plus homers.

Next for the Sox Sox at Minnesota, 12:10 p.m.

Thursday, CSN, AM-670 ignore him. So Morneau gave out a bunch of air high-fives, a light moment on a night when several Twins enjoyed fine performances. Brian Dozier reached base four times, including a three-run homer in the second against Sale (5-6).

Glen Perkins pitched a perfect ninth for the second game in a row, recording his 18th save in 20 tries, after

Kevin Correia (6-4) pitched into the seventh.

The Sox have dropped six of seven to fall to 29-40.

They’re 11 games under .500 for the first time since an 1122 record May 6, 2011.

If Sale is struggling, that’s almost a sure sign the Sox are in trouble, too. The lanky left-hander failed to reach the sixth inning for the first time in his past 10 starts, giving up four runs and eight hits. He also walked two, hit two batters and threw a wild pitch.

Four of Sale’s five strikeouts were notched with his first four outs, but the second inning was a rough one. Oswaldo Arcia hit a sharp comebacker that Sale got a glove on to protect his body, but in

doing so he jerked his midsection backward and flipped over from the momentum.

Arcia had a one-out single, and Sale stayed in the game after he was checked out.

Then Clete Thomas walked, and Dozier’s two-out drive – his fifth homer of the season – put the Twins in front 3-1.

Right before that, as Sale covered first base to barely get Pedro Florimon on a 3-1 groundout, the pitcher appeared to twist his left ankle after trying to slow down and pivot toward the diamond as the runners moved to second and third. That prompted a second manager-trainer visit to Sale. He didn’t show any discomfort after that, but he never found his form.

HOUSTON – Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig touted the progress the league has made in racial hiring practices while stressing his desire to increase the number of black players in the sport.

Selig spoke Wednesday at the MLB diversity business summit.

The league received an A rating in racial hiring practices in this year’s annual report

by Richard Lapchick’s Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sports at the University of Central Florida. But the number of black major leaguers remained low at just 8.3 percent.

“We constantly strive to find ways that would make Jackie Robinson proud of his chosen sport,” Selig said. “We have seen the work of our diversity committee to ensure that qualified minorities are interviewed and considered for important managerial and executives roles.

“We plan to supplement this progress with an on-field diversity task force. The task force will work to improve the talent pipeline to professional baseball, particularly for African-American players.”

The summit was the second of its kind after the league hosted it for the first time last year in Chicago. It is a chance for people to explore employment and business opportunity with all 30 major league teams at a trade fair. The Houston Astros co-hosted the event and owner Jim Crane is proud of the diversity in his organization.

“The city of Houston is very diverse and baseball has gotten behind this diversity summit,” Crane said. “It was in Chicago last year and we were the first one to volunteer to have it here this year. We think it’s a great idea and gets people talking to each other and make some connections.”

Selig spoke of Robinson often during his address, and talked at length about baseball’s efforts to increase the number of African-Americans in the sport. He noted that there are more than 210,000 participants in the league’s Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities program.

Selig said it was important for MLB’s Urban Youth Academies in Compton, Calif., Houston and Philadelphia to help get more African-Americans involved in baseball.

“Though we have much work to do, there have been encouraging developments in recent drafts as 13 African-American players have been selected in the first rounds of the 2012 and 2013 draft,” Selig said. “We have seen nearly 60 alumni of our RBI and Urban Youth Academies selected in these drafts.”

First-year Houston manager Bo Porter, one of three African-American managers in the majors, participated in the event.

“Major League Baseball has gone to great lengths to have diversity be a part of our game,” he said. “It’s something that I personally appreciate. I think it’s great for baseball and great for everyone.”

Speed key when fishing There are many factors that are important parts of the solution to the mystery of catching fish. One of the most important is speed.

Whether it is the speed your boat travels when you are trolling an artificial bait or the speed that is generated by how hard you choose to crank the handle on your reel, finding the correct speed is extremely important.

I once lost a sauger tournament on the Illinois River because I was fixated on slow trolling. I kept trying to go slower and slower.

I couldn’t go any slower after a while and I never got any fish to attack my offerings.

The next day, I was told by a friend that the winners had sped up and gone much faster than I’d ever imagined. The winner was using the same lures as my partner and I, same size and same color. They were making the same trolling pass. As a matter of fact, they were trolling right in front of us for most of the afternoon.

Lesson learned.

A basic rule of thumb is to retrieve slowly in the spring.

That’s the time when fish are least likely to chase food because their metabolisms are just awakening for the year.

As the season progresses, you can generally speed things up. The fish are getting hungrier and more active and are willing to expend a little energy to get a meal.

Now these are generalities, not hard and fast rules. What you need to do is to vary your retrieves until the fish decide your bait is running at the speed they like. You have to let the fish tell you what they want from you. You can never force a fish to eat.

The exception is when you are throwing a big, wobbly, noisy bait and you are trying to get the fish to take a whack at it out of aggression rather than hunger.

I start slowly and speed up. You can do it vice versa, but I think it’s easier to climb up incrementally while remembering how fast you were going on the last cast.

Sometimes it is hard to retrieve as slowly as you like. That is because the retrieve ratio on your reel is made to take up more line

ON THE OUTDOORS Steve Sarley with every turn of the handle than on slower reel.

Conversely, a fast retrieve ratio reel can allow you to burn a lure back to you without tiring out your hands. You can carry two rod/reel set-ups with you with a low retrieve reel on one and a fast retrieve reel on the other. That sure makes casting and retrieving much easier.

You don’t have to keep a constant speed when you retrieve.

You can speed up and slow down.

Giving a lure a quick jerk and then reeling up the slack will often trigger a strike. The same goes for trolling. If you zigzag the boat while trolling with two rods out, one lure will speed up while the other slows down.

Vary your speeds until the fish tell you that they like what they are seeing and get ready to set the hook.

Fishing report Northern Illinois – Dave Kranz from Dave’s Bait, Tackle and Taxidermy in Crystal Lake reports: “Catfishing on the Fox River is great. Cut bait and blood stink bait (Sonny’s) will both work well. Largemouth and smallmouth bass both are in summer mode use Defender jigs with a Yum craw trailer in 10 to 25 feet of water for post spawn fish. Dropshotting a Roboworm in the same water will also work well. Panfish can be caught in the shallows using a red worm or wax worm on a small hook or jig.

Honest John from C.J. Smith’s resort on Grass Lake sends word, “Bluegills are biting everywhere.

Trout worms are working well or use a No. 10 hook tipped with a redworm or waxworm. Walleyes are really biting. The Lake Marie sandbars are the hot spot. Drift over them using XL fatheads or leeches for some real action. The Spring Lake Bridge and other bridges are also good spots to try because of the currents. Large-

mouth Bass are being very active.

The channels all around Spring Lake are producing some nice ones. Nightcrawlers or medium golden roaches are best live baits.

Also try small to medium crank baits and assorted plastics to tempt them. Crappies have slowed down a bit. Whopper catfish are being caught and the channels are the places to be. Nightcrawlers, stink bait or shrimp are all good bait choices. Try for muskies in the mouth of the channel leading into Petite, on Bluff by Airport Bay and on Channel Lake.

Lake Michigan – Captain Bob Rossa of Migrator Charters (www.

ALakeMichiganCharter.com) says, “Fishing on Lake Michigan has been slow this past week. Some Cohoes, lake trout, steelhead, and kings are being caught, but not in large numbers. Fish are being caught from 40-feet to 200-feet of water. Most are being caught in the top 20-feet of the water column, but some kings and lakers are being caught right on the bottom.

Moonshine’s Wonderbread spoon has been a very good lure. Small OO orange dodgers with blue/ green/gold Peanut flies are still catching most of the Cohoes.”

John Rung, publisher of the Northwest Herald and president of Shaw Media, holds up a 44-inch northern pike, the biggest fish he has caught.

“It’s like fishing with a friend,” said Rung. “Ron is knowledgeable but not bossy. We get to rib each other a little bit. It’s like fishing with a friend who is also a fishing guide.”

“He works hard,” Branum said of Rung. “It’s not easy to get him

going when he has a day off. We made a date one summer to fish on the Fox Chain. John didn’t want to start until 9:30.”

“Great, I thought. We’re fishing the worst time of year and we’re going out at the wrong time of day. I’d never had much luck on the Chain and I figured this would be more of the same. What do you know?

We went out on Pistakee Lake and absolutely hammered them. What a day!”

On a recent fishing trip to Canada, Rung landed a trophy-class 44-inch northern pike, his biggest fish ever. Rung quickly released the fish.

When Rung ended the day and showed his pictures to the rest of his group, the only one with a bigger smile than Rung was his father-in-law and fishing buddy, Ron Branum.

Dick Clark once said, “Humor is always based on a modicum of truth. Have you ever heard a joke about a father-in-law?”

Of course not. All of the jokes are about mothers-in-law. But what about the fathers? Isn’t there a natural conflict between a dad and the fellow who stole daddy’s little girl away from him? That certainly is not true in the case of Ron Branum and John Rung.

Branum and Rung are fishing partners and enjoy each other’s company on angling expeditions to Canada, Iowa, Wisconsin and locally. Watching them interact, you’d think they were the best of friends, but it wasn’t always like that.

“To tell the truth,” said Branum, “I don’t know if we hit it off at the beginning. John had to earn his stripes. I respected him. He was always a very hard working guy.

We became friends after a while.”

Branum and his wife of 43 years, Virginia, have lived in Johnsburg since 2004. One of Branum’s hobbies has been his volunteer work on the Dutch Creek Conservation Area restoration project. He is a retired Chicago Police detective who spent his last ten years in law enforcement on loan to the F.B.I., working on violent crimes.

John Rung is the Publisher of the Northwest Herald and President of Shaw Media which has 80 publications and web presences.

Rung has been with Shaw for over 16 years and is one of just two publishers in the 28-year history of the Northwest Herald. Rung lives in Johnsburg with his wife, Rachel, and three children, Savanna 14, Emma turning 8 in July and Jack 4.

Rung enjoys fishing as a way to escape and enjoys having his father-in-law in the boat with him.

Mom should keep kids away OK to introduce solid foods from their gun-toting grandpa for infants at 4 to 6 months Dear Abby: The letter you printed from “Gun-Shy in South Carolina” (March 5), about the antics of her gun-toting, alcoholic fatherin-law, caught my attention.

I’m a former mental health clinician and program inspector. I discussed that letter with a friend who is a psychiatrist.

“Grandpa” has probably already violated a municipal ordinance regarding discharging a firearm in corporate limits. I agree with you he has endangered his grandchildren. My friend advised that, according to the local interpretation of mental health statutes, Grandpa might be eligible for involuntary commitment and evaluation in a psychiatric facility.

He could be disarmed by the police, if necessary.

“Gun-Shy” should heed her motherly instincts, stay home and refuse to visit Grandpa until he enters treatment. Otherwise, there’s a high probability she will mourn the loss of one or more dead children.

Grandpa seems to think booze and guns make him brave. A brave person is a military medic, a member of the U.S. Coast Guard and the thousands of first responders who demonstrate their bravery by saving human lives, not threatening them. In fact, many Medal of Honor recip-

down somewhere. A child near my hometown died last New Year’s Eve when she stepped outside with her grandmother to watch the fireworks and a bullet fell to earth and lodged in her brain.

The police believe the gun may have been fired from a few miles away. – Christina

In Maryland

Dear Responsible: I agree.

Some readers felt I should have been tougher in my response, and that Gun-Shy and her children should not visit Grandpa at all. Failure to act on her fears is called child endangerment and could result in the children being taken away. Readers let me have it with both barrels: Dear Abby: Your answer to “Gun-Shy” was off the mark.

As a vet and former law enforcement officer, I think the whole family is in “wimp” mode. For adults to watch a drunk adult fire a gun in the air around his family and not call 911 was ignorant and dangerous. ALL states have laws about firing guns in the air (illegal), firing guns while drunk (illegal), unsecured loaded weapons (illegal), and firing guns around children in a home environment (illegal). That jerk should have been arrested. – Smokey In

Dear Abby: Why didn’t you suggest a family intervention for the grandfather’s alcoholism? The family could be helped by going to Al-Anon to learn how to detach with love from his disease. Alcoholics need to understand how their drinking affects them and others. Possible estrangement from his grandchildren might be a way to break through his denial. – Steve C. In San Dear Abby: My friend Michelle died last July Fourth.

She was killed because someone fired a gun into the air.

She was beautiful, talented and left behind a fiancé, a mother, a sister and many friends. She was receiving her Ph.D., was a brilliant researcher for the CDC and had just picked up her wedding gown. She was the victim of a senseless act caused by someone’s carelessness. – Marsha

Dear Dr. K: I’ve started giving pureed solid foods to my 2-month-old daughter. My sister doesn’t think this is safe. What’s your opinion?

Dear Reader: I agree it’s too soon. Pediatricians advise waiting until a baby is 4 months old to introduce solid foods. You can even wait a bit longer. Breast milk or iron-fortified infant formula provides all the nutrients your baby needs for the first 6 months. There is no proven benefit from introducing solid foods before 4 months, and there are risks.

Babies younger than 4 months are not physically ready for solid foods. They usually cannot sit up by themselves or hold their heads up well. Also, the muscles in the mouth that help guide solid food into the back of the throat and then down into the stomach are not fully developed. This means when they try to swallow solid foods into the stomach, the food can drop down into the lungs, not the stomach. That’s called aspiration, and it can cause pneumonia.

Giving solids before 4 months may increase the risk of obesity, Type 1 diabetes and celiac disease,

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff although these disease links are not solidly established. It also may increase the risk of eczema and of food allergies.

Breast-fed babies who start solids early tend to stop breast-feeding sooner. Given all we know about the health benefits of breast-feeding, that’s not a good thing.

Most babies develop the ability to eat solid foods at 4 to 6 months. But even when your baby is ready, learning to eat solids takes time and practice.

Before you begin, talk with your pediatrician.

Most recommend one of the iron-fortified infant cereals, such as rice, oatmeal or barley, for the first food.

These types of cereals are least likely to cause allergies. Foods rich in vitamin C, such as orange juice, can help the absorption of iron.

There is no value, and there is potential harm, from adding either salt or table sugar to the food. You still will be giving the baby milk or formula as you gradually introduce solid foods. Be

careful not to feed the baby too many calories. Your pediatrician or a nutritionist can help you plan.

Watch for symptoms of allergy, such as rash, wheezing, stomachache, diarrhea, gas, fussiness or vomiting.

If you notice any of these things, stop giving the food in question and consult your pediatrician.

Also keep the following in mind as you start your baby on solids: • Add only one new food at a time. Wait five to seven days between new foods so that you have time to watch for a possible allergy.

• Do not give honey to your infant before 1 year.

Honey can cause life-threatening food poisoning (botulism).

• Wait until your child is at least 3 years old to give small, round or hard foods that can cause choking.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Thursday, June 20, 2013 • PlanitNorthwest.com/buzz

Madonna premieres tour film Madonna said there were days when she was exhausted during her recent “MDNA” world tour, but she decided to press on.

You won’t see those behind-the-scenes battles in her new concert film, “The MDNA Tour,” which premieres Saturday on the online and cable network Epix. But you will see the 54-year-old pop icon performing – mainly highlights from her Miami shows – for two hours on her tour, which started in May of last year and wrapped in December.

“There’s no such thing as not in the mood because the show must go on, right?” the singer said at the film’s premiere Tuesday night at New York’s Paris Theater. “I’m a human being like everybody else, so I would have my nights, my bad nights and I would cry and I would say, ‘I don’t want to do this.’ ” Madonna told a feverish crowd of fans, her dancers, her tour team, socialites and members of press that she wanted her shows to be a relief for those paying to see her.

“I sold the tickets and I can’t let my audience down,” she told the crowd of a few hundred. “Before every show everyone came into my dressing room and we got in a circle and said prayers and 50 percent of the time I said them and 49 percent of the time I was crying, usually from over-exhaustion. But there’s something about pushing yourself out there when it’s pouring rain or you’re freezing cold or you don’t feel well or something really crazy happened in the world like Hurricane Sandy.”

Madonna’s new concert film will be released on DVD on Aug. 27.

Woody Harrelson is putting his paper where his passions are. The 51-year-old actor is the co-founder of Prairie Pulp & Paper Inc., which launched its brand of environmentally friendly paper Wednesday.

The company spent 15 years researching and developing its Step Forward Paper.

It’s made of wheat-straw waste and wood fiber rather than virgin trees.

The company says replacing two packs of traditional copy paper with their product saves one tree.

Harrelson says half the world’s forests are cut down to make paper, and his company’s new paper is “going to be great for our future.”

tion in a lawsuit by a former manager of their restaurant, don’t tolerate hateful behavior.

In a court deposition filed Monday in federal court, an attorney for former restaurant manager Lisa Jackson presses the 66-year-old Deen about her racial views and those of her brother, Bubba Hiers.

Deen is asked if she’s ever used “the N-word.” She responds: “Yes, of course.”

Deen says she likely used the slur in the 1980s after a black man held her at gunpoint at the Georgia bank where she worked.

Deen insists she and her brother object to slurs being used in “any cruel or mean behavior.”

Deen admits to using slur

Studio has professor pen Superman sermon

Celebrity cook Paula Deen says she has used racial slurs in the past but insists she and her brother, who are accused of racial and sexual discrimina-

Seems Warner Bros. has taken movie marketing to a whole new level – even higher than a bird or a plane.

The studio enlisted Christian-focused

firm Grace Hill Media to promote “Man of Steel” to faith-based groups by inviting them to early screenings and creating trailers that highlight the film’s religious themes.

They also enlisted Craig Detweiler, a Pepperdine University professor and author of “Into the Dark: Seeing the Sacred in the Top Films of the 21st Century,” to create a Superman-centric sermon outline for pastors titled “Jesus: The Original Superhero.”

“Let’s consider how Superman’s humble origins, his high calling and his transforming sacrifice point us towards Jesus, the original superhero,” the notes read.

The tale of Superman has long been associated with religious allegories. “Man of Steel,” which stars British actor Henry Cavill in the titular role, doesn’t shy away from that theme, including portraying the character as 33 years old, having him seek counsel at a church in a time of crisis and forming a cross-like pose while floating in space.

Larry Kain, service manager at Ormsby Motors in Crystal Lake, talks on the phone to a customer in his office.

45 years of service Ormsby Motors manager keeps up with changes

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – On a yellow legal-sized notepad, Larry Kain tracked a purchase order in a large, slanting script.

He’s been working in the service department at Ormsby Motors for 45 years, the last 19 years as the service manager, and for the most part, he’s kept his system the same.

“This works just fine,” Kain said.

“It always has. I mean, the computer I’ve got here for diagnostics and all that stuff.”

The cars that come into the shop at 50 N. Main St. are increasingly computerized.

“Back then [when I started], anybody could work on cars,” Kain said.

“Today, the field has changed, so many computers and so many things that have changed. ... Now you can’t put a window switch in the car without programming.”

Kain goes to four- or five-hour-long training sessions a year to keep up with the changes, and some of it he learns on his own.

While some service managers assume more of a managerial role and leave the cars to the mechanics, Kain said he prefers to “get right in there.”

“We work together,” he said. “I don’t want to act like a boss. I mean, I give them assignments to do or whatever, but if he comes up and says, ‘I got a problem with this,’ I get over there with him and see if I can help him out.

“My attitude is I need to know more than they know,” he continued, then paused. “It’s getting a little harder.” He laughed. “The memory bank is getting full.”

Kain, 63, is probably two or three years from retirement, he said.

Customer Mike Meier of Crystal Lake (left) talks about his vehicle with Larry Kain, service manager at Ormsby Motors in Crystal Lake.

Kain’s father, Harold Kain, worked at Reichert Autos as a service manager. Kain got his start washing cars there before he even had a driver’s license.

The summer between his sophomore and junior year of high school, he took a training program through General Motors even though the program was for high school graduates.

He got his start at Ormsby Motors as an apprentice mechanic in June 1968 through a work study program at Crystal Lake Central High School.

While most new mechanics were building up their tool boxes, Kain had to roll his in. He had been building it up since his time at Reichert.

After graduation, Ormsby hired him as a full-time mechanic.

“They started me at $175 a week,” he said. “I thought I was a million-

aire.”

Over the years, he moved up, first to assistant service manager and then, in 1994, to service manager.

Besides being “just not a mover,” Kain liked that it is a family-owned business with a lot of long-term employees.

A group of them served as volunteer firefighters, he said. Kain joined when he was 18 and stayed on for about 10 years until the department professionalized.

“I enjoyed helping other people,” Kain said, echoing what he enjoys about his job at Ormsby where he can recognize customers by the sound of their voice on the phone and knows their names.

“You have to be good with customers,” he said. “You have to be honest with customers. You have to build relations with customers.”

WASHINGTON – Stocks closed sharply lower Wednesday after Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said the central bank could slow its massive bond purchases this year.

The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 206 points, or 1.4 percent, to 15,112.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 fell 22, or 1.4 percent, to 1,628.

The Nasdaq fell 39 points.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury note jumped to 2.34 percent, the highest since March 2012.

Bernanke said the Fed could start scaling back its $85 billion in monthly bond purchases later this year if the economy continues to improve. He said the reductions would occur in “measured steps” and that the purchases could end by the middle of next year. By then, Bernanke said he thought unemployment would be around 7 percent.

Speaking of the economy, he said, “The fundamentals look a little better to us.”

He spoke at a news conference after the Fed ended a two-day policy meeting.

After the meeting, the Fed voted to continue the pace of its bond-buying program for now. But it offered a more optimistic outlook for the U.S. economy and job market.

The Fed said it will keep buying $85 billion a month in bonds until the outlook for the job market improves substantially. The goal is to lower long-term interest rates to encourage borrowing, spending and investing.

It hasn’t defined substantially.

The Fed also released its latest economic projections Wednesday. Fed officials predicted that unemployment will fall a little faster this year, to 7.2 percent or 7.3 percent at the end of 2013 from 7.6 percent now. They think the rate will be between 6.5 percent and 6.8 percent by the end of 2014, better than its previous projection of 6.7 percent to 7 percent.

During his news conference, Bernanke declined to address speculation that he will step down as Fed chairman when his term ends in January.

He was asked to respond to comments Monday by President Barack Obama, who said Bernanke had already stayed longer than planned. The president’s remarks added to expectations that Bernanke intends to step down.

Bernanke avoided the question.

“I would like to keep the discussion on monetary policy,” he said.

Export revival under way for small businesses

By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG AP Business Writer NEW YORK – When Lawrence Scheer began selling baby clothes in 2010, he didn’t realize it then, but he was on the leading edge of a recovery in small business exports.

Scheer’s company, Magnificent Baby, manufactures its products in China and then sells them in about 20 countries around the world.

“Our goal from the beginning was to sell as much clothes as possible – so when international interest was there, we pursued it,” says Scheer, whose business is based in New York.

Scheer took a chance that many small business owners have only recently decided to take. A growing number of companies are turning to exporting to build their sales, reversing a downturn that began with the recession and was likely made worse by the financial crisis in Europe.

Research shows an increase in overseas sales by companies already exporting, and a growing interest in exporting among those who have yet to test the international waters. Exporters say demand for their goods, from clothing to blankets to crop dusting planes, is rising. That makes it worth their while to deal with the complexities of exporting, including logistics and complying with the varying regulations of overseas markets.

Magnificent Baby gets between 5 percent and 10 percent of its revenue from exports – strong enough that the company is adding to its network of distributors, local businesspeople who accept delivery of exported goods and get them into customers’ hands. He hired his first distributor in Canada in the spring of 2012, and has since added distributors in Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand. He’s looking for someone in Britain.

Sixty-four percent of small busi-

nesses are exporting goods or services, up from 52 percent in 2010, according to a survey by the National Small Business Association and the Small Business Exporters Association. And 63 percent of non-exporters said they’re interested in selling overseas, up from 43 percent, according to the trade groups. Of those who are exporting, the majority – 54 percent – get less than 10 percent of their revenue from overseas sales.

That’s a comeback from the decline that started when the economy began to slump. The number of established small businesses that received at least 25 percent of their revenue from exports fell from 12 percent in 2008 to 10 percent in 2009, and then dropped to between 5 percent and 6 percent from 2009-12, according to a study by Babson College researchers. An established small business is at least 3½ years old.

Changes in guidance, analyst outlooks affect stock Do you know what you will be doing and what the world will be like in 2015? Caterpillar, the big yellow construction equipment manufacturer, apparently does.

There’s an old Wall Street ritual where executives from publicly traded companies meet with investment analysts to discuss “forward guidance” on their company’s earnings and business outlook. The analysts slice and dice the executives’ comments and use them to help formulate earnings projections and “price targets” for the stock.

These projections and price targets get disseminated to stockbrokers and other “buy side” investors who use this data to help make their buy and sell decisions.

This “dance” between company executives and Wall Street analysts can be a bit tricky because there are all kinds of rules regarding what the company can and cannot say.

And, of course, companies don’t want to divulge too much information because it might help their

competitors. Despite the potential drawbacks, some companies issue a wide range of earnings and revenue growth forecasts while others simply say they’re “comfortable” with what the analysts are currently projecting for their company’s earnings. Still others avoid the scene completely and make no projections.

If there’s a material change to the “guidance” from one of the analyst meetings, the company’s stock often goes on a wild ride, either up or down.

Given all the issues surrounding the issuance of earnings guidance, it was quite interesting to learn that Caterpillar recently met with analysts in 2012 and cut its earnings forecast for 2015. That’s right, 2015!

Now, how many of you know what you’ll be doing or what the economy will be like in 2015?

On one hand, we should praise Caterpillar for its bold transparency. Few companies go out on a limb like that and give analysts a three-

FINANCE Paula Dorion-Gray year earnings projection. Unfortunately, Caterpillar’s stock wasn’t exactly rewarded for its openness.

The company lowered its earnings forecast for 2015 and said, “We’ve seen a slowing in economic growth more than we expected.”

The next trading day after its announcement (Sept. 25, 2012), Caterpillar’s stock dropped 4.2 percent, according to data from Yahoo!

Finance.

In addition to a company changing its guidance, investment analysts may change their “earnings projection” at any time during the year, regardless of whether there’s been any announcement from the company. Netflix is a good example.

During a one week period in early October 2012, analysts from two different investment banks made positive comments about

Men’s Wearhouse ousts founder, pitchman Zimmer

By ANNE D’INNOCENZIO AP Retail Writer NEW YORK – Apparently, Men’s Wearhouse Inc. doesn’t like the way its founder looks anymore.

In terse release issued Wednesday, Men’s Wearhouse said it has fired the face of the company and its executive chairman, George Zimmer, who appeared in many of its TV commercials with the slogan “You’re going to like the way you look.

I guarantee it.”

The timing was even odd – the announcement happened the morning the company’s annual shareholder meeting had been set to take place.

The company delayed the meeting but didn’t give a new date.

Men’s Wearhouse gave no reason for the abrupt firing of Zimmer, who built Men’s Wearhouse from one small Texas store using a cigar box as a cash register to one of the North America’s largest specialty men’s clothiers with 1,143 locations. The company generated revenue of $2.48 billion in its latest fiscal year ended Feb. 2.

The company said the purpose of postponing the annual meeting is to re-nominate the existing board of directors without Zimmer. It said the board expects to discuss with Zimmer the extent, if any, and terms of “his ongoing relationship” with the company.

The news shocked analysts and corporate governance experts, who tried to speculate what happened.

“This is very rare to fire a founder. Founders are generally entrenched in the company,” said Eleanor Bloxham, CEO of The Value Alliance, a board advisory firm.

Zimmer, who handed

AP Business Writer DALLAS – FedEx Corp.’s fourth-quarter profit fell 45 percent as international customers traded down to lessexpensive delivery options.

Excluding charges, the results still beat Wall Street expectations. But the company’s forecast for the next 12 months was shy of Wall Street forecasts.

The world’s second-largest package delivery company said Wednesday that it earned $303 million, or 95 cents per share, in the fourth quarter ended May 31. That’s down from $550 million, or $1.73 per share, a year ago.

FedEx said that excluding restructuring costs and an aircraft write-down, it would have earned $2.13 per share, which beat analysts’ forecast of $1.96 per share in adjusted earnings.

The company is trying to cut annual spending by $1.7 billion by 2016. The steps include buyouts intended to re-

Tuesday, June 25 In this May 1999 file photo, George Zimmer (second from left) gestures to Andy Dolich prior to a meeting, in Oakland, Calif. Men’s Wearhouse Inc. says it has dismissed Zimmer, its founder and executive chairman. over his CEO title to Douglas Ewert in 2011, was the company’s personable, down-toearth face, his slogan almost a cultural touchstone.

As of late morning, the company’s website still prominently spotlighted Zimmer, calling him “The Man Behind The Brand” and linking to YouTube videos of “the man in action.”

The abrupt departure comes a week after Men’s Wearhouse reported that its fiscal first-quarter profit increased 23 percent, helped by stronger margins and an earlier prom season.

In 1971, fresh out of college, Zimmer made his first foray into the clothing industry, working in Hong Kong for six months as a salesman for his father’s coat manufacturing business, according to the company website.

In 1973, he and his college roommate opened the first Men’s Wearhouse store, which sold $10 slacks and $25 polyester sport coats, in

Houston. His personal car was a van with the company logo on the side and clothing racks in the back.

The company launched its first TV commercial in the 1970s when commercials for clothing were rare. Zimmer starred in his first TV commercial in 1986, with the line “I guarantee it.”

Men’s Wearhouse kept expanding, focusing on large markets where business was sluggish to take advantage of lower real estate costs. It also expanded beyond sports coats and trousers to casual sportswear in the 1980s and then went into the tuxedo rental business in 2000.

Zimmer owned 1.8 million shares of Men’s Wearhouse as of the company’s May 9 proxy filing, a 3.5 percent stake in the company.

The company, based in Fremont, Calif., also runs the Moores and K&G retail chains. It also sells uniform and work wear in the U.S. and U.K.

duce the work force by at least 10 percent by May 2014.

FedEx said Wednesday that about 3,600 employees who applied for a buyout will leave the company. Of those, 40 percent left on May 31.

Severance and other restructuring costs totaled $496 million, or 98 cents per share, after taxes. The company also took a write-down of $100 million, or 20 cents per share, as it retired 10 airplanes during the quarter.

For the fiscal year that started June 1, the company forecast that adjusted earnings will grow between 7 percent and 13 percent. That would suggest a range of $6.67 to $7.04 per share. Analysts surveyed by FactSet were expecting $7.28 per share in the new year.

Fourth-quarter revenue rose 4 percent to $11.44 billion, just below analysts’ forecast of $11.46 billion.

Through Tuesday, FedEx shares had gained 8.5 percent so far in 2013.

Chairman and CEO Fred

Smith said the company’s ground-services business remained strong and margins improved in the freight business during the fourth quarter.

“These positive developments did not fully offset tepid economic growth and customer preference for less costly international shipping services,” Smith said in a statement issued by the company.

FedEx Express plans to further cut delivery capacity between Asia and the United States in July.

FedEx delivers shipments from businesses to consumers and other companies. Because its customers span so many industries, it’s often seen as an economic bellwether.

The Memphis, Tenn.based company has been dealing with a slump in high-end express-delivery services as customers try to save money by picking cheaper but slower shipping options.

FedEx 4Q profit drops as priority services lag

By DAVID KOENIG

Netflix, according to Motley Fool.

The result? The stock jumped about 30 percent during the period.

But, what the market giveth, it can taketh away.

On Oct. 9, 2012, another investment bank came out with an opinion on Netflix. This time, it was a negative call and the stock dropped about 10 percent that day, according to MarketWatch.

As these two examples show, individual stock prices can be volatile.

This is not a buy or sell recommendation for Caterpillar or Netflix. We’re simply pointing out how company earnings guidance and analyst investment changes can dramatically affect stock prices. The swift reaction in Caterpillar and Netflix stock suggests this information flows quite quickly.

To be a successful investor in individual stocks, you need to have the resources to analyze how changes in forward guidance or investment analyst outlooks may affect a stock. Sometimes, these

Continued from page D1 The drop was less steep among younger businesses.

Seventeen percent of new businesses were getting a quarter of their revenue from exports in 2007. That number was down to 12 percent to 13 percent the last three years. One reason for the difference between older and younger businesses is that established business owners may decide to focus on their core U.S. businesses and take fewer risks overseas during a downturn, says Donna Kelley, a professor of entrepreneurship at Babson College who co-authored the study on exports.

“We saw people’s perception about opportunities (like exporting) just go down,” Kelley says. But newer exporters may not yet have as solid a U.S. base to rely on, she says.

Another reason for the decline in exporting was the difficulty small businesses had finding financing for their exports. Many banks that believed small companies including exporters were too risky to lend to, says David Ickert, chairman of the National Small Business Association.

But the drop in domestic business during the downturn also made many companies consider exporting for the first time, says Ickert, who’s also a vice president at Air Tractor, an Olney, Texas-based manufacturer and exporter of crop-dusting and firefighting aircraft.

“Our country has had to

look for more sources of revenue. One of the most obvious but most overlooked was exports,” he says.

For some companies, overseas demand for their goods is growing faster than domestic demand. Love and Quiches, which supplies cheesecake and other desserts to restaurants and stores, has had a 20 percent to 30 percent increase in export sales each year for the past five years, according to the company’s president, Andy Axelrod.

cent and 12 percent.

Love and Quiches, which gets 25 percent of its revenue from exports of desserts including cakes, cheesecakes and brownies, sells to customers in more than a dozen countries that want U.S.made products, particularly those considered high-end, Axelrod says.

“A New York cheesecake has to be made in New York.

There’s a demand for that in all areas of the world,” he says. Loves and Quiches is located in Freeport, N.Y., east of New York City.

Breaking into the export market can be intimidating. Many small businesses have shied away from selling overseas because of concerns about risk and the unfamiliarity of business practices in foreign cultures, especially where English isn’t spoken, Babson’s Kelley says.

“We tend to sell to what we’re familiar with – and we’re familiar with the U.S. culture,” she says.

Small businesses that export to a number of countries have a learning curve each time they enter a new market.

The first time Kingsdown shipped its mattresses to another country, it was a little daunting because it was an unfamiliar market with different business customs from the U.S., says Frank Hood, CEO of the Mebane, N.C.based manufacturer. That was 20 years ago, and the customer was in Kuwait. Now the company sells to more than 20 countries, with China the most recent addition.

Hardware store owner marks 70 years

By ALGIS J. LAUKAITIS Lincoln Journal Star NEBRASKA CITY, Neb. – When Walt Wenzl was 15 years old, his parents told him he should look for a job.

So, he went to John Haussener’s hardware store in Nebraska City and was hired part-time, working before and after school. He recalled his first day as unmemorable and confusing.

“I don’t remember what I did. I think I sat on the chair most of the time because it was all new to me,” Wenzl said.

Now 85, Wenzl still sits on a chair – but in the office of the hardware store that bears his name and where he has worked most of his life.

In May, more than 200 people, including family and friends, celebrated Wenzl’s longevity and his 70 years at the hardware store, which has become a fixture in Nebraska City.

“He’s always friendly. If you’re having a bad day, you go see Walt. He’s got what you need,” said Tom Schreiner, who dropped in to congratulate Wenzl during an open house.

Schreiner has known Wenzl since their days at St. Bernard’s Academy, now Lourdes Central Catholic School. He described his friend as a survivor, who also dabbles in poetry and local history.

Wenzl Hardware Store is a museum in itself. The two-story building was built in 1864 and still has an old elevator operated by hand. The tops of the wall shelves are dotted with antiques, including a 1903 Flexible Flyer sled.

Over the years, Wenzl has collected tools, housewares and other items, like a butter churn and an iron-looking device that makes pleats in skirts. He’s even got his old leather baseball mitt from his youth and smoking pipes, a habit he gave up decades ago.

Today, his store at 906

Walter and Rita Wenzl stand behind the counter at Wenzl Hardware in downtown Nebraska City.

Walter has been working at the location for 70 years.

Central Ave. carries an assortment of nails, bolts and screws, clamps, chains, vises, shovels and hammers, housewares and small appliances, gardening supplies and just about anything else you might need in a hurry.

“It’s so wonderful that he has a hardware store. There are not too many left,” said 88-year-old Dorris Sackless, a local historian. “It’s a real value to people, especially after they get up in years and can’t get to Lincoln like young people can.”

Wenzl said he guesses which items he should stock and keeps a “want book” for things people have asked him to get. He doesn’t try to compete with other hardware stores and places like WalMart.

“I don’t pay any attention to them. I do my own thing,” Wenzl said.

For instance, he carries Radio Flyer wagons and wheelbarrows. That was very fortunate for cousins Brandon Kuenning and C.J. Kuenning, from Imperial in southwest Nebraska.

They were in Nebraska City on Saturday for a wedding and needed a toy wheelbarrow for a gag. They said it was a family tradition for the groom to wheel his bride to the reception in a wheelbarrow, and they planned to show up with a toy one. Wenzl had just what they needed.

How did they find him?

Ed Mills, a customer since 1979, stops to chat with Walter Wenzl at Wenzl Hardware in Nebraska City. Wenzl started working at the store 70 years ago and has owned it since 1954.

“We were looking for a hardware store,” Brandon Kuenning said, and saw the sign on the side of the building.

The hardware business has been good to Wenzl, who bought the business in 1954 from Haussener and purchased the building three years later.

“He was a great teacher,” Wenzl said, noting that Haussener once worked as a traveling salesman in Omaha. “He just knew hardware.”

Wenzl was a good student.

He knows a lot about hardware, but don’t ask him for any advice on a project.

“My grandfather was a carpenter, and I can’t even build a birdhouse,” he joked.

The hardware business has provided the means for

Study: Wiser medication use could cut health costs

By LINDA A. JOHNSON AP Business Writer TRENTON, N.J. – If doctors and patients used prescription drugs more wisely, they could save the U.S. health care system at least $213 billion a year, by reducing medication overuse, underuse and other flaws in care that cause complications and longer, more-expensive treatments, researchers conclude.

The new findings by the IMS Institute for Healthcare Informatics improve on numerous prior efforts to quantify the dollars wasted on health care.

Numerous experts previously have estimated that tens of billions, perhaps hundreds of billions of dollars, could be better used each year to improve patient care and outcomes and to slow down spending by government health programs, insurers and consumers.

The institute, part of data analysis and consulting firm IMS Health, used its proprietary data on prescriptions written by doctors – many of which patients never fill – plus other information to produce a current, more reliable estimate of avoidable costs solely related to medication use.

IMS arrived at the $213 billion figure based on six categories in which doctors, patients or both could be making better use of medication, from getting a prompt diagnosis when new symptoms arise to taking medicines as directed by the doctor. Across the six categories, the researchers generally focused on spending on a handful of very common or very expensive diseases — from high cholesterol and blood pressure to HIV and diabetes — for which costs of care and complications are well documented.

“There’s even larger avoid-

able costs if we were to look at all disease areas” where patients aren’t getting optimal care, Murray Aitken, the institute’s executive director, told The Associated Press in an exclusive interview.

“There’s a big opportunity for improvement.”

The $213 billion equals nearly 8 percent of the more than $2.7 trillion the U.S. spent on health care last year. Those billions could pay for the health care of more than 24 million Americans currently uninsured, according to IMS. And Aitken said more-appropriate use of medication — taking it exactly as prescribed, not taking antibiotics for viral illnesses, preventing medication errors and the like — could prevent 6 million hospitalizations, 4 million trips to the emergency room and 78 million visits to doctors and other outpatient care providers each year.

“Those are staggering numbers,” Aitken said.

The report, titled “Avoidable Costs in Healthcare,” found the biggest area of waste is patients not taking medicines prescribed by their doctor, either at all or as directed. IMS estimates the cost of such “non-adherence” at about $105 billion a year.

Reasons for the longstanding problem include patients fearing drug side effects, not understanding complications that can occur without treatment, having mental health issues and not being able to afford their medicines. Price has become less of a factor, though, as there are now relatively inexpensive generic versions of drugs for most diseases.

“I think there’s really good, solid evidence that if you adhere to medications, that keeps you out of the hospital,” said M. Christopher Roebuck, president of health

policy consultants Rx Economics LLC. Roebuck, who was not involved in the study, said it’s well done. But he said the estimates of potential savings are “quite conservative” for medication non-adherence and treatment delays.

Those delays are blamed for racking up about $39 billion a year in avoidable care costs – due to patients putting off doctor visits and not getting medications they’re prescribed, or doctors not promptly starting treatments proven to prevent expensive complications.

“We’ve got a lot of people without insurance who are not routinely going to the doctor, and even some with insurance aren’t,” Aitken said.

Other areas of waste noted in the report include: • Prescribing antibiotics inappropriately, as for patients with the flu or another viral infection, costing about $35 billion annually. This can contribute to bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics, resulting in more expensive treatment and even hospitalization with a future infection.

• Medication errors, costing about $20 billion annually. Those include sloppy handwriting leading to the wrong drug or dose being dispensed and doctors not checking to see that the patient is getting better, meaning they’ve been getting the right medicine. Those errors are on the decline due to more doctors using electronic prescriptions and other changes.

• Not using generic drugs when they are available, costing about $12 billion annually.

That’s a decreasing problem, as strategies of health plans and pharmacies encourage patients to choose generics by setting copayments for brandname drugs a few times higher than for the generics.

him and his wife, Rita, to live comfortably. Five of their six children went to college. None of them have followed in their father’s footsteps.

Wenzl opens the hardware store at 7:30 a.m. and closes the doors at 5 p.m. each weekday. On Saturdays, the store closes at 2 p.m. Wenzl used to stay open until 9 p.m. on Thursdays, but he admits to slowing down in recent years.

“I’ve been here 70 years, and I’ve enjoyed it, “Wenzl said. “Most of the people who come in are nice.”

Retirement is not in his plans. He said the hardware store gives him something to do.

“I have no special hobbies,” Wenzl said. “It keeps me out of the beer joints.”

Following a downtown lunch break, Walter Wenzl returns to the Nebraska City hardware store he has owned since 1954.

Court Airhart builder sees big sales in 2013 “We are still below historical norms. Historical norms are 19,000 to 21,000 building permits issued per year in the Chicago area but permits issued have been in the 5,500 to 6,000 range. The Chicago area includes nine counties, all the way north to Wisconsin and east to northern Indiana,” he said. The nine counties include McHenry, Kane, Lake, Cook, DeKalb and DuPage, where Airhart’s company is most active.

“Given that building permits are not up to historical norms, there is still a lot of growing interest in new housing,” he added. “I see a variety of reasons for this. There are transferees, people relocating to be near family. Others are looking for a smaller rather than a larger home. They want one the right size to fit their needs at

Jerry Kuyper The new housing market for Chicago’s suburban market, which includes McHenry and Kane counties, is making a big comeback, according to one builder.

That builder is Court Airhart, president of West Chicago-based Airhart Construction. “We project a 15 percent growth in the market from last year to this year. There are some out there who say it will end up more like 25 percent,” he said.

He indicated there is much room for growth.

this point in their lives.

“I see people feeling more comfortable, the past two or three years, in buying a new house and see that now is the time to make a decision. People were nervous about the stock market and interest rates and stayed where they were. Now they are more comfortable about the situation and they want to move forward.”

Airhart has gauged the pulse of the market from other builders.

“This pent up interest is true not only for me, but also for builders in McHenry, Kane, Cook and Lake counties. I hear of more activity of people being interested in a new house.”

• BUILDERS Continued from page F1 Most of Airhart’s clients are second or third time buyers. Some are customers who had Airhart build them a larger single-family house in past years but this year want to move into another type of housing.

Airhart currently offers custom and semi-custom housing at Fisher Farm and Starcliff in Winfield, Radcliff Ridge in Lisle, The Reserves of Prince Crossing Farm and Risch Court in West Chicago and at Courthouse Square, Mackenzie Place, Woodland Oaks, College Station and Stoddard Avenue in Wheaton.

“Wheaton’s College Station (town houses) and Courthouse Square are great examples of what I am talking about. These are downtown, close to the (commuter) train, and close to lots of shopping and restaurants.

Our buyers are people who say they have had the suburban backyard experience with the clubs, sports and churches, but now want to walk to a Starbucks for coffee, walk to the library or train or whatever,” Airhart said.

“They still want quality and we give them that as our town houses are luxurious and of high quality. And they are living in an exclusive downtown neighborhood.”

Airhart has his buyers. “We just sold out the third phase, just signed the final contract at Courthouse Square. We had seven town houses in the third phase, “ he said in an early June interview.

The second phase also had seven and the first phase four. The fourth phase at Courthouse Square will have 28. “We expect a lot of sales activity over the next four to five months but, as a disclaimer, I will say the housing market is hard to predict.”

His confidence in new housing is evidenced in two DuPage County properties, Starcliff and Risch Court. His company will build a ranch and a two-story at each location.

“Starcliff is an untouched gem tucked away in a quiet, wooded neighborhood with a total of seven cul-de-sac home sites that are one-third acre in size with either a look out or walkout basement,” Airhart’s director of sales Christy Whelan said.

Of an original seven, four building sites remain at Starcliff. Another builder has two of the remaining lots and a single lot was bought by an individual who will hire his own contractor.

Airhart will build two houses at Starcliff for eventual sale. They are the Holbrook ranch and a Pendleton two-story.

The 2,405-square-foot, $644,000 Holbrook has a brick front and Hardie plank exterior.

There are three bedrooms, two-and one-half bathrooms, a full basement and an open floor plan with 9-foot ceilings.

Highlights are a great room with fireplace, custom kitchen with maple cabinets, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops.

Kitchen designs from Airhart Construction have won awards from the Northern Illinois Home Builders Association.

The two models are the Cornell ranch and Westbrook two-story.

The 2,000-square-foot, $398,760 Cornell has three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and a two-car garage.

There are 9-foot ceilings with an exception. The foyer has a 12-foot ceiling. There is a family room with vaulted ceilings and a formal dining room.

The kitchen has custom cabinetry, a room which overlooks a natural preserve, stainless steel appliances, and an oversized pantry, Airhart said.

The 2,769-square-foot, $453,640 Westbrook has four bedrooms, two-and one-half bathrooms, a full walk-out basement, 9-foot first floor ceilings, two-story family room, formal living and dining rooms and a first floor den.

Residents have a five-minute drive by car to both the West Chicago and Winfield Metra stations for commuter rail service to downtown Chicago. I-88 is accessible via Route 59 with Interstates 90 and 355 nearby.

The West Chicago Park District offers nine parks comprised of 228 acres. The 88-acre Reed-Keppler Park boasts baseball and football fields, playground and 10 acres of woods. The Prairie Oaks Family Aquatic Center is nearby as are several golf courses, such as Prairie Landing, St. Andrews, Cantigny, Pheasant Run, Old Wayne and Klein Creek.

A fireplace, 9-foot ceilings, and a windowscape with views of nature are standard fare from Airhart Construction at several of the company’s subdivisions. one we build from one of our plans, but each plan we have can be customized. We have a staff architect to do that for us. A custom house is more or less a new draw from the basement up.”

Although the outlook is positive, Airhart sees that new government regulations could negatively influence the new housing market.

“Regulations ... yeah there are a few of those building codes and now the most onerous one is requiring fire sprinklers in all new houses. There are some really bad numbers with this new regulation. You hear people (government regulators) say the dollar amounts are inconsequential on springklers and will cost only $1.50 per square foot. That figure is way off the real-world cost. We are doing some town houses now in the 2,800-square-foot range and the cost

Even so, sales are expanding in 2013 compared to 2012. “We had 21 sales in 2012 and so far 14 in 2013 (through May). Maybe I am being somewhat optimistic, but I feel we will finish up with 24 to 30 sales in 2013,” he said.

Airhart Construction has been around five decades. A family owned and operated business since 1964, Airhart has all housing certified by a third party for energy efficiency.

“My father, Mac Airhart, started it all and he still is involved with the business.

I am the second generation guy but I have been working in this business for an awfully long time right along with my brother-inlaw. I just happen to be the company president,” Airhart, 45, said.

The play theme in today’s deal catches out many less experienced players. They do not watch their losers or then work out how to eliminate the one that they cannot afford.

South is in four spades.

West leads the heart queen.

How would a watchful declarer play?

North used a transfer bid.

On the next round, he was borderline between rebidding two no-trump and three no-trump. He was swayed by the good spade-suit quality into jumping to game.

(Do not commit your side to a high-level spade contract unless you know of at least an eight-card it. Here, South might have only a doubleton spade.) South, despite his 4-3-3-3 distribution, corrected to the nine-card it. Note that three no-trump would fail after a heart lead. Those missing aces are fatal.

An observant South will

see four potential losers: one in each suit. It is impossible to do anything about the three aces, so declarer must work out how to avoid conceding a heart trick.

If South plays a trump at trick two, East should win and return a heart, condemning the contract. Instead, declarer must lead a club at trick two. Suppose West ducks this trick, takes the second club, and plays another heart. South wins and cashes his last club, discarding dummy’s remaining heart. Now, inally, it is time to tackle trumps.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - In the year ahead, you could have greater opportunities to operate in an independent, enterprising manner. There’s a chance that more than one of your endeavors will turn out to be quite grand.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Do your best, whether you’re working for someone else or for yourself.

In fact, if you really put your nose to the grindstone, you’re likely to yield higher dividends than you ever thought possible.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Co-workers aren’t likely to resent you taking charge, provided your ideas and methods are better than theirs. In which case, they’ll copy you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- One way to substantially enhance your endeavors is to look out for the interests of your colleagues and not just your own. Let everybody win when you do.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It’s an excellent day to realize one of your dreams. Don’t allow any negative thinking on behalf of your co-workers to dampen your spirits.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Both your work and your financial prospects look to be very encouraging.

The chances of achieving desirable results appear to be especially good at present.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- If you hope to be someone who gets, you must first be someone who gives. The luckiest developments occur when you prime the pump with generosity.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- A favorable shift in circumstances is likely regarding something that you’ve been dreading. After the dust has settled, what’s left standing should brighten your spirits.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You should take advantage of every opportunity to meet new people.

There’s a strong possibility that you’ll be introduced to someone you’ll have an instant affinity with.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- This could be an especially good day to launch a new endeavor, particularly if it’s something creative. It could turn out to have greater appeal than you expected.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If something negative has to be said to someone, you’re the one who will have the ability to do so in a frank but kind manner. You won’t go over the line.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Lady Luck doesn’t always stick around for long periods of time, so take full advantage of her while she is on your side. Remember, good things don’t last forever.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- When making an important decision, you need to take careful stock of your alternatives. Several will be appealing, but only one or two will really work in the long run.

FAVES Five things the Planit Pl@y staff is excited about this week More at PlanitNorthwest.com/5faves

1

‘Royal Pains’

‘Royal Pains’ is not your typical medical drama. And that’s what I love about it. Hank (Mark Feuerstein) is a concierge doctor in the Hamptons who pretty much can solve anything. He’s a combination of “House” and “MacGyver” and he needs those tools because Hank’s almost always set up to fail, mostly through no fault of his own. Typically, he doesn’t work in a hospital, and he serves the lifestyle of the rich and the famous, but he also helps out the average Joe. While the show can be serious at times (death, assassinations, betrayal, etc.), it can turn lighthearted thanks to the work of Hank’s brother, Evan (Paulo Costanzo). Add in their funny, attractive medical assistant/friend Divya (Reshma Shetty), and this show is worth DVRing. – Kevin Murphy

BOOKS

‘A Nearly Perfect Copy’

A copy of Allison Amend’s latest book landed on my desk, and intrigued me with its unexpected juxtaposition of storylines: Art forgery and human cloning in the face of bottomless grief. The book is called “A Nearly Perfect Copy,” and comes close – with a beautifully written story, sympathetic characters and an expert’s understanding of the high-end art world. As it takes its inhabitants down a slippery slope, it consistently surprises and gives the reader pause to think. As the book jacket notes, Amend – a graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop – is the author of the Independent Publisher Book Award-winning short story collection “Things That Pass for Love” and the novel “Stations West,” which was a finalist for the 2011 Sami Rohr Prize for Jewish Literature and the Oklahoma Book Award. Visit www. allisonamend.com. – Renee Tomell

TELEVISION

‘Futurama’

Good news everybody, “Futurama” is back to finish its seventh season. Bad news everybody, this is Futurama’s last season. The show that debuted in 1999 on FOX was canceled and then reincarnated on Comedy Central is in the last season.

While the heyday of this show was in season four, there still are episodes that make me chuckle. After all, this cartoon is about Philip J. Fry, who, after being accidently frozen for 1,000 years, works at a delivery company in the 31st century, so anything is bound to happen. The writers and producers have teased us about the potential relationship between the show’s main characters, Fry and Leela (a mutant from the sewers). Will this finally be the season they make ground on their relationship? I hope so because time is running out. – Kevin Murphy

MUSIC

Jason Isbell

If you don’t know who Jason Isbell is, you should. Isbell is a singer/songwriter who released his album “Southeastern” on June 11 and I consider it his best work to date. I love being able to listen to an album from start to finish with equal enthusiasm, and “Southeastern” is one of those albums. Isbell is a wonderful musician who most recently was playing with his band The 400 Unit, but “Southeastern” offers a look at a stripped-down Isbell. Isbell’s true gift is in his lyrics where he will make you feel and think with his thoughtful, sometimes dark insights.

He had plenty to sing about on this album after recently getting sober, falling in love with Amanda Shires and getting married. Isbell’s soulsearching has given us an honest, moving and well-crafted album I think will get critical acclaim. His wife plays fiddle and adds vocals on “Traveling Alone,” which speaks of that lonely path, while “Flying Over Water” and “Super 8” are more in line with Isbell’s southern rock roots. Isbell played with the Drive By Truckers before forming The 400 Unit and has come fullcircle with this mostly acoustic album that really shows off his songwriting talent. Give “Southeastern” a spin and there is a good chance you will become a fan. – Les Johnson

MUSIC

Masked Intruder

Never has a band made songs about breaking and entering sound so sweet.

The identities of the guys in Masked Intruder remain a mystery thanks to their colorful ski masks, but they’re allegedly from Madison, Wis. I initially passed over this album when writing the weekly Make It Pop music review column for this section of the newspaper. I figured a band that needed a mask gimmick to get over must be doing it because its music is lacking. Wrong. On the debut full-length album, the pop/punk band touches on everything from unrequited love to tresspassing. And its all done with sincere heart-on-their sleeve lyrics. “And if they wanted to sentence me to a lifetime of loving you tenderly, well I’d be delighted,” the man known as the Intruder Blue sings on “25 to Life.” Corny? Maybe. But criminals have feelings, too. – Rob Carroll

Float your boat One of the original cardboard cup regattas in the world sets sail this weekend in Crystal Lake •

Story by JAMI KUNZER jkunzer@shawmedia.com Northwest Herald file photos

I

n this race, cardboard floats your boat.

Or not. Either way, participants in the 27th annual America’s Cardboard Cup Regatta will win awards, ranging from “Most Spectacular Sinking” to “Most Creative Theme” to “Ugliest Boat.”

With trophies going to the fastest vessel in each of the event’s six classes, speed will count, too.

But what really matters, organizers say, is it’s fun. Both fun to compete in and fun to watch.

“It’s on the beach. It’s a great summer community event, and it helps local charities,” said Nick Kachiroubas, who has been the chairman of the event for about 14 years.

This year’s regatta begins at noon June 22 at Main Beach in Crystal Lake, with gates opening at 9 a.m. for boat inspection and those interested in building Kwiki Boats using special kits provided the day of the event.

It features cardboard boats crafted out of materials provided racing along a 200yard course. A shorter, more simplified Kids’ Course will give children the chance to compete, as well.

Admission is $3, capped at $15 per family, with proceeds going to local charities.

In years past, the event, believed to be one of the original cardboard cup regattas in the world, has drawn more than 2,000 spectators and roughly 150 entries.

“I think like anything, it ebbs and flows,” Kachiroubas said of its popularity and appeal both locally and elsewhere.

“As far as how many boats and how many spectators will depend on the weather the day AMERICA’S of,” he said. “It’s looking like it’s CARDBOARD going to be a nice CUP REGATTA summer day.”

Past events the championship have drawn a of cardboard boat giant red Solo cup racing with entrants and boats themed building and racafter Star Wars, the Flintstones ing boats along a and Pirates of the 200-yard course for Caribbean. a variety of awards.

The more imagMore at www.cardinative the boat, boardcup.com. the more attention it gets typically.

Along with the awards mentioned above, prizes go to the “Most Enthusiastic Crew,” “Most Attractive,” “People’s Choice Award” and “Stars & Stripes,” or the boat with the most patriotic theme.

Boats in the classes of paddle or oar powered, mechanical, sail, Kwiki, Kiddie Cup and Geezer Cup compete to be the fastest. Those usually draw kayaklike boats that move swiftly in the water.

The event originated from a couple of college students at Southern Illinois University who built cardboard boats as part of a class project. In 1983, Crystal Lake Yacht Club members Frank Ward, Chuck Elison and Jim Hooker brought the idea to Crystal Lake to bring the community together.

“At one point, it was internationally known,” Kachiroubas said of the event.

Organizers of a former competitive race in New Zealand used to send their champions to compete in Crystal Lake.

Kachiroubas recently heard from a similar event in Australia, but the challenge is getting the boat to Crystal Lake, he said.

For now, the regatta will continue carrying on the traditions of the past, no matter who, what or how many show up.

“Here’s what I’ve learned from doing this,” Kachiroubas said. “People will come.”

‘Monsters’ generates lots of laughs “Monsters University”

STARRING: Voices of Billy Crystal, John Good-

By JEFFREY WESTHOFF “Monsters University” is sweet. It’s life-affirming. It will make you laugh.

But it is not superb. It’s not groundbreaking. It will not make you cry.

No one would care about those last three demerits if “Monsters University” were not a Pixar film. If this were MORE made by DreamWorks ONLINE Animation, it would be Watch the hailed as a triumph. For trailer to proof, take a look at the “Monsters reaction to last summer’s University” at “Madagascar 3,” which PlanitNorthgot swell reviews because west.com it wasn’t as bad as critics expected.

Pixar does not have the benefit of low expectations. Even today, five years on from the miraculous period of “Ratatouille” and “Wall-E,” we expect excellence from Pixar every time out. When Pixar delivers something very good, like “Brave,” or merely good, like “Cars 2,” the world reacts as if M. Night Shyama-

man, Helen Mirren PLOT: Years before working at Monsters Inc., Mike (Crystal) and Sulley (Goodman) are rival freshmen at Monsters University. A crisis in their academic career forces them to become partners, but can they become friends?

RATED: G RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 42 minutes lan took over the studio.

Compounding the discouraging signs of “Monsters U” is that this is a companion to one of Pixar’s best and most beloved films, 2001’s “Monsters Inc.” At least Pixar’s creative team had the sense to make a prequel instead of a sequel.

“Monsters Inc.” ended with one of the most perfect final shots in cinema history. You can’t follow that. Who wants to see a continuation where Boo grows up and we learn her real name? I want the moment when Boo shouts, “Kitty!” and Sulley’s face lights up to last forever.

Excuse me a second. I’m tearing up just thinking about it.

Realizing they shouldn’t go forward with the story, the filmmakers go backward. “Monsters U” is set a decade or two earlier, revealing how tall and furry James P. Sullivan (voiced again by John Goodman) meets short and round Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) during their freshman year at the titular school, the

most prestigious in the monster world.

From their first day of class in the university’s Scaring School, Sulley is the Mozart to Mike’s Salieri. Scaring comes so easily to Sulley he doesn’t bother bringing a pencil or notebook to class.

“You don’t need to study scaring,” he says. “You just do it.”

Mike, meanwhile, has been preparing for college since elementary school.

He has studied the philosophies of fright so thoroughly he knows the four key aspects of a roar by heart. Yet when Mike tries to put all this devoted learning into action, he gets more laughs than screams. Sulley’s lackadaisical attitude to his own natural gifts drives Mike crazy.

The script – which is credited to director Don Scanlon and two other Pixar veterans moving into leadership roles, Robert L. Baird and Daniel Gerson – plays around with the clichés and conventions of the campus comedy. Folksingers on the quad. Stolen mascots. That one fraternity filled with the obnoxious popular students (Nathan Fillion voices their president). Of course there is a stern administrator, Dean Hardscrabble (Helen Mirren), a dragon from the waist up and a centipede from the waist down.

“Monsters University” also borrows ideas from other college movies, including (predictably) “Animal House” and (less predictably) “The Paper Chase.”

Eventually, it settles into playing out as a G-rated version of “Revenge of the Nerds.”

OPENING FRIDAY

Continued from page 15 After a fight gets them expelled from the Scaring School, Mike and Sulley learn they can be readmitted to the program only if their fraternity wins the annual all-university Scare Games. But the only fraternity that will take them is the lamest, Oozma Kappa. The frat is home to lovable outcasts such as middle-aged returning student Don (Joel Murray), the two-headed Terri and Terry (Sean Hayes and Dave Foley) and Art (Charlie Day), a hairy hippie shaped like a big U. The odds are already against the underdog fraternity, and it doesn’t help that Mike and Sulley don’t trust each other and rarely stop sniping. The problem at the center of “Monsters U” is the foreknowledge that bedevils most prequels. Mike and Sulley start out as enemies in this story, but in “Monsters Inc.” they are the best of friends. So before “Monsters U” starts, we know how it must end.

Despite a few surprising turns of plot through the climax, the conclusion is never in doubt.

The story generates no tension at all.

It does generate a fair share of comic delights. The script is filled with jokes and sight gags, and most get a laugh. When Mike meets his roommate, it’s not whom you expect, and the revelation leads to several funny moments. The hapless nature of Oozma Kappa extends to their victory chant, “We’re OK! We’re OK!” From the first “Toy Story” to the second, the perspective shifted from Buzz to Woody.

A similar shift occurs here. In “Monsters Inc.” Mike was the supporting player in Sulley’s story. In “Monsters U” the roles are reversed. The story focuses on Mike’s quest to find his role in monster society.

Sulley tags along and learns a few things in spite of himself.

“Monsters U” doesn’t have the heart of “Monsters Inc.” or any in the first wave of Pixar pictures, but when Mike and Sulley discover their friendship and the strength it gives them, they share a few touching moments. As in the first film, the warm vocal work of Crystal and Goodman grounds these fantastic creatures in credible emotion and life experiences.

“Monsters U” is a solid and

affable animated comedy, and the Pixar team has not lost its eye for visual splendor. On the movie’s surface, there’s little to complain about. Yet it is difficult to forget the days when Pixar knocked one out of the park every time. These days the studio seems content to hit doubles and the occasional triple.

The only reason to be disappointed with “Monsters University” is that Pixar used to be capable of so much more.

Exhibit A would be “Monsters Inc.”

“SHE’S HAD A STRUGGLE WITH LIFE BECAUSE I ALWAYS SAY SHE FALLS IN BETWEEN TWO WORLDS. SHE IS HIGH-FUNCTIONING, BUT SHE DOESN’T FIT INTO THE REGULAR WORLD. AND SHE DOESN’T FIT COMPLETELY INTO THE SPECIAL NEEDS WORLD. IN THE LAST YEAR, SHE’S KIND OF FOUND HER PLACE AND IT’S BEEN AWESOME TO SEE.” MARY ELLEN BOGUCKI BREANNA’S MOTHER

FINE TUNE Cary’s Bogucki records special song after winning talent competition Story by JAMI KUNZER - jkunzer@shawmedia.com • Photos provided

UP CLOSE

So impressed by Bogucki, Peterik went beyond a simple recording session. A judge of the competition, he teamed with Lisa McClowry, emcee of the event and a singer and songwriter, to write an original song for Bogucki to record.

The two met and talked with Bogucki – who has obsessive compulsive disorder and high-functioning autism – and her mother, Mary Ellen, on several occasions to write the lyrics and create a song relatable to her and others her age.

Of the song, McClowry wrote, “What I really wanted to get out of Breanna was vulnerability. Being young and having special challenges, I imagine she is building up all kinds of walls and anger. So this song was a way for her to let go and let the walls down, and reveal that she does get hurt. That makes her more human, and I think a lot of young people identify with that.”

The song, “I Was Born Yesterday,” has been released on iTunes, Amazon and CD Baby and has catapulted Bogucki into the music business.

“It’s just about my life and how I feel and everything,” Bogucki said.

In the fall, she will be a sophomore at Cary-Grove High School, where her mother said she always had tried to blend in.

“She’s had a struggle with life because I always say she falls in between two worlds,” Mary Ellen said. “She is high-functioning, but she doesn’t fit into the regular world. And she doesn’t fit completely into the special needs world. In the last year, she’s kind of found her place and it’s been awesome to see.”

Since the song’s release, her peers have bought the single and supported

Breanna Bogucki of Cary (right) won the Special Talents America competition in November.

BREANNA BOGUCKI her in other ways.

“It has boosted her confidence,” Mary Ellen said.

With a theme of not taking advantage of others and using words carefully, the song basically describes what Bogucki has faced through the years.

Her favorite line includes the words, “I get hurt so easily,” she said.

A slideshow and the audio of the song recently played in front of about 10,000 people at the opening ceremonies for the Special Olympics Illinois State Games in Normal, and Bogucki performed the song live during the event’s closing ceremonies. The audience, including McClowry, cheered.

“The moment she walked on stage,

she connected with the crowd,” McClowry said. “They loved her.”

Bogucki also earned five gold medals in the artistic gymnastics competition at the Summer Games.

She next will perform two songs at the Sunday, June 23, “A Taste of Red, White & Brew Festival” in McHenry to benefit the Northern Illinois Special Recreation Association Foundation.

Bogucki participates in numerous NISRA activities and events.

“I think it’s really cool I have the experience to do all this because that is what I dream about doing,” she said.

“When I was younger, I always wanted to sing in front of people. When I got to do that over the weekend, it made all the kids happy.”

Cary resident who goes by the stage name "Breanna Alyssa" WHEN: 2 p.m. June 23 WHERE: "A Taste of Red, White & Brew Festival" to beneit the Northern Illinois Special Recreation Association Foundation at Veterans Memorial Park in McHenry.

A

talent competition for people with special needs has landed 15-year-old Breanna Bogucki of Cary a new single and a new dream.

Bogucki, who goes by the stage name “Breanna Alyssa,” won Special Talents America in November, beating out about 40 acts who auditioned and eight other finalists. The victory came with a professional recording session with Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Jim Peterik, best known for several Survivor songs, including “Eye of the Tiger,” as well as his band, The Ides of March.

ROB CARROLL WITH MUSIC’S NEW RELEASES

FEATURED RELEASE

A WAY WITH WORDS

Kanye West

“Yeezus” HHH

“Pardon me while I get my scream on,” Kanye West spits on “Black Skinhead.”

The lyric is an indication of what’s in store for the early part of “Yeezus.” West’s twisted tales on his sixth studio album are more dark than beautiful. His words are delivered with more anger than ever before.

But it’s all done with a purpose. West’s delivery never strays out of sync with the beats of his songs. Of course, singing softly about high fashion really isn’t an option when you’re rapping over a drum beat that sounds like Marilyn Manson’s “Beautiful People.”

Lyrically, “Yeezus” doesn’t quite hold up to past Kanye albums. Too many times, he comes off as venting instead of being thoughtful, choosing instead to keep things flowing by saying whatever comes to his mind first. The line, “Star Wars fur, yeah I’m rockin’ Chewbacca,” on “Guilt Trip” surely will illicit more chuckles than anything else.

While the lyrics may not be up to the standards we’ve come to expect from West, he does continue to push the boundaries of what beats can be used in rap music.

With the help of producer Rick Rubin and a few other guests including Daft Punk, West gets more imaginative on “Yeezus.” West even brings house music into the mix, giving a nod to his hometown of Chicago. His creativity for creating beats from various samples and styles of music always has deserved praise. And what we’re given on “Yeezus” is among his most impressive work.

West’s anger finally starts to dissipate as he gets things under control near the middle of the album. He’s still upset, but he also seems more willing to take time to understand what is happening around him.

This is where the album is at its best. On “I’m In It,” Kanye even slightly strays from making everything about Kanye.

But, really, what did we expect?

When you go by the nickname Yeezy and you name your album “Yeezus,” you better own your self-absorbed persona. Kanye does just that.

Sure, there are a couple of moments where “Yeezus” is difficult to listen to. But, then again, so is Kanye. In the end, his willingness to push the envelope and explore different styles is what makes “Yeezus” an interesting listen.

Here's are best lyrics from Kanye West's new album "Yeezus." Well, at least the best ones that we can print in the newspaper.

• “One last announcement. No sports bra, let's keep it bouncing” (“On Sight”) • “I'm aware I'm a wolf” (“Black Skinhead”) • “In a French-a-- restaurant. Hurry up with my damn croissants” (“I Am God”) • “I throw these Maybach keys. I wear my heart on the sleeve” (“New Slaves”) • “When I park my Range Rover. Slightly scratch your Corolla. OK, I smashed your Corolla” (“Hold My Liquor”) • “Uh, they be balling in the D-League.

Uh, I be speaking Swaghili.” (“I'm In It”) • “I don't give a damn if you used to talk to Jay-Z. He ain't with you, he with Beyoncé, you need to stop actin’ lazy” (“Blood On The Leaves”) • “Star Wars fur, yeah I'm rockin' Chewbacca” (“Guilt Trip”) • “She say ‘Can you get my friends in the club?’ I say ‘Can you get my Benz in the club?’

If not, treat your friends like my Benz. Park they a-- outside 'til the evening end.” (“Send It Up”) • “Leave a pretty girl sad reputation.

Start a Fight Club, Brad reputation.” (“Bound 2”) RATINGS HHHH - Excellent HHH - Recommended HH - Not recommended H - Awful

NEW&NOTEWORTHY

Empire Of The Sun “Ice On The Dune” HHH Australian dance rock outfit Empire Of The Sun’s 2008 release, “Walking on a Dream,” was a surprise hit after it caught on in the U.S. But the second half of that OUT THIS WEEK Beach Day, “Trip Trap Attack”; Beady Eye, “BE”; Slaid Cleaves, “Still Fighting the War”; J. Cole, “Born Sinner”; Crash Kings, “Dark of the Daylight”; Deep Purple, “Vincent Price”; Delbert & Glen, “Blind, Crippled and Crazy”; Donna the Buffalo, “Tonight, Tomorrow and Yesterday”; Falling in Reverse, “Fashionably Late”; Bill Frisell, “Big Sur”; Hanson, “Anthem”; Stephen Kellogg, “Blunderstone Rookery”; LoCash Cowboys,

release fizzled out before its end.

On their follow-up, “Ice On The Dune,” Empire Of The Sun have learned from their mistakes.

The new album maintains the same identity throughout, avoiding falling flat before the last song.

While their music on “Ice On The Dune” remains as lush as it did on their last release, Empire Of The Sun further embrace the dance side of their music. “Celebrate”

“LoCash Cowboys”; Mac Miller, “Watching Movies With the Sounds Off”; Rick Moranis, “My Mother’s Brisket & Other Love Songs”; Primal Scream, “More Light”; Kelly Rowland, “Talk a Good Game”; Sigur Rós, “Kveikur”; 3OH!3, “Omens”; Tiësto “Club Life – Vol. 3 Stockholm.”

OUT JUNE 25 All Tiny Creatures, “Dark Clock”; Alpha Blondy, “Mystic Power”; Boys Noize, “Go

and “Surround Sound” rattle speakers with some of the heaviest bass ever heard in an Empire Of The Sun song.

Both of those songs appear on the back end of the album where the band picks up the pace. The album builds to a high point before coming in for a soft landing on the Prince-esque “Keep A Watch.”

Empire Of The Sun sound so much more dialed-in on “Ice On The Dune” as they play to their strengths.
