Lawsuit coming in Valley school bus accident Kids hurt? Cops say no, lawyers say there were injuries

Spring Valley — directly contradicting a police report — and they are now suing Johannes Bus Service. A formal complaint has not been filed in Bureau County Circuit Court and names of those By Tom Collins reportedly injured won’t be reNEWSTRIBUNE SENIOR REPORTER leased until the lawsuit has been PRINCETON — Local lawyers filed. However, a law firm with an ofsay several children were injured in a Sept. 6 school bus crash in fice in Peru announced Friday a

pending lawsuit against Johannes for its role in the crash, at which time 32 children were en route to John F. Kennedy School in Spring Valley. The Sept. 6 crash occurred at the intersection of East Minnesota and Power streets, where the bus “made heavy impact at a high rate of speed with another motor vehicle at the intersection.”

“Contrary to the earlier reports that there were no injuries, a number of students were, in fact, injured in the crash, sought medical treatment and are continuing to suffer from the injuries they sustained,” Schweickert, Ganassin, Krzak, Rundio said in a news release. That news release directly contradicts a Spring Valley police report indicating the 32 children

were aboard but that no injuries were reported. The crash report issued Friday indicated bus driver Dennis A. Matz, 74, of Mendota was ticketed for failure to yield following the collision with Jeanette M. Smith of Spring Valley. Both drivers were uninjured.

Kindergartners: Ready or not? Teachers talk about how readiness has changed By Ali Braboy

NEWSTRIBUNE REPORTER

Every day starts with play. Waltham kindergarten teacher Karin Kummer is happy the importance of play is coming back for students. She’s worked as a Waltham teacher for 16 years and worked for Putnam County for six years before that. The students are happier, more engaged and motivated when they’re able to learn in a playful way, such as using alphabet puzzles or retelling stories with puppets. The reintroduction of the importance of play was discussed recently at a Kindergarten Individual Development Survey (KIDS) summit. KIDS is a tool that helps better understand the readiness of kindergartners. “All those things help them be creative and solve problems and work with their classmates,” she said. This summer, the Illinois State Board of Education released statewide results of the 2018-19 KIDS assessment, which helps teachers, parents and families better understand the developmental readiness of children entering kindergarten. Kindergarten teachers statewide began using KIDS in Fall 2017, so the ISBE said its still in the process of learning the data and trying to identify trends. The statewide implementation followed five years of piloting with select districts. The assessment involves kindergarten teachers collecting multiple pieces of evidence for each student on 14 measures in three areas – social and emotional development, language and literacy, and math – during the first 40 days of school. The newest assessment found 26% of kindergartners demonstrated readiness in all three developmental areas. La Salle Northwest kindergarten teacher Cathy Smudzinski has noticed overall that students are not coming in ready as they had in the past academically, socially and emotionally. She’s taught for 18 years. How kids play has changed over the years, said Derek

Oakley Gander (center) plays with other kindergartners Aubrey DeSerf, AJ Nicholas, Spencer Mertes and Riley McDonald at Waltham Elementary School. The Illinois State Board of Education released statewide results this summer that 26% of kindergartners demonstrated readiness in all three developmental areas (social and emotional development, language and literacy and math) for the 2018-19 assessment. Kilmartin, La Salle’s school district curriculum director and preschool director, mentioning that play deals with many more electronics than in the past. The two mentioned that language skills are a concern locally, statewide and nationally. More kids than ever are nonverbal, Kilmartin said. Years ago, children picked up books and pretended to read that book and talk about the pictures, but that doesn’t happen as much

anymore, Smudzinski said. Smudzinski notices a difference even in public spaces like restaurants and parks how parents behave differently with children now than in the past. She recalled bringing toys and books with her own children when going out and interacting with them. Sometimes, she used whatever was at the table (such as building with coffee creamers at the table). See READY Page A2

Tips for parents on kindergarten readiness:

Waltham kindergarten teacher Karin Kummer: Let your kids play with other children so they know how to take turns and work together; give them independence by letting them put on their own clothes and shoes; give them responsibilities like having them pick up their own toys and bring a dish to the sink after dinner; start routines like brushing teeth, reading a story and then going to bed so that the transition to school routines isn’t so difficult. La Salle kindergarten teacher Cathy Smudzinski: Sit and play with them, make learning fun, talk with them, put puzzles together with them, let them cut paper with scissors, count numbers to grandma’s house, sort socks — make everyday activities into an educational activity. Oglesby kindergarten teacher Amy Turri: Reading to your kids is the No. 1 tip. She said “LeapFrog: Letter Factory” is a very good tool.

Utica bumps up sales tax Trial setting in La Salle baby’s Officials: Rate still equal or lower to others By Steve Stout

Jan. 1. Mayor David Stewart said the increase was the right thing to do. Additionally, trustees adopted the village’s fiscal year (ending March 31, 2019) report. Treasurer Jill Margis explained the report will be available for public review at the Village Hall “by the end of the month.”

With little discussion and no opposition, Utica trustees increased the village’s sales tax to 7% Thursday.

death likely coming Oct. 4 By Tom Collins

NEWSTRIBUNE SENIOR REPORTER

OTTAWA — Trial dates are likely to be set Oct. 4 in the death of a La Salle infant now that the suspect has a report in hand from a pathologist. Kenneth Herbst, 23, of La Salle appeared Friday for a status hearing, during which public defender Tim Cappellini reported he’s three weeks away from being able to ask for trial dates. Cappellini said he obtained a sought-after report from a pa-

thologist (the details of which are sealed) and anticipates asking for a trial setting on Oct. 4. Herbst would face 20-60 years in prison if convicted of first-degree murder. Prosecutors allege he smothered the baby with a pillow in March. Meanwhile, prosecutors want to introduce evidence that Herbst had hurt the baby before. In a Wednesday filing, prosecutors asked Chief Judge H. Chris Ryan Jr. to let them admit evidence of See TRIAL Page A2

But now children are more often watching videos and playing on phones. All those little interactions between kids and items such as building creamers at a table make a diﬀerence when it comes to building skills, she said. Amy Turri has been a kindergarten teacher at Oglesby for 16 years said she’s noticed kindergarten readiness has improved over time, and she thinks there are more expectations for kindergartners than in the past and also the availability of two-year preschool programs helps students. Funding in early childhood education is needed throughout Illinois so all children have an even playing field when they enter kindergarten, said Michelle Zeko, superintendent for Ladd Community Consolidated School District. “It bothers me that we’re looking at kindergarten readiness when we don’t have the funding levels for everyone to be even,” Zeko said. For the past two years, the state hasn’t funded the district’s preschool program, so parents have had to pay tuition for the preschool program during that period.

Street, said he did not see Smith’s vehicle. Smith in turn reported the bus blew through a yield sign, causing her to swerve. Lawyers said they sent demands out to Johannes Bus Service, Inc. to preserve evidence in this case, including but not limited to any video or other recording devices on the bus; any and all electronic data recorders or recording devices showing the speed

Some families aren’t able to afford the preschool tuition, and many of those families told the district they would have to keep the children at home. Zeko said she thinks a child will be affected by not attending preschool, not only academically with learning numbers and letters but also when it comes to social and emotional skills. In preschool, children learning how to share, take turns, work together in a group and play games — “All those skills we take for granted sometimes as adults, but someone has to teach that to the children,” she said. Putnam County superintendent Carl Carlson said the results gave them good insight as to areas the district can try to improve on as well as looking to see patterns or pockets that can be addressed. “The KIDS data is just one point on the grand scheme of things. While we review the numbers, we also continually view the story behind the numbers,” Carlson said. “That comes from building relationships and positive school experiences that try to offset the pressures of one time assessments.” Ali Braboy can be reached at (815) 220-6931 and countyreporter@newstrib. com.

IVCC credit hours have fallen 40% from 2010 By Ali Braboy

NEWSTRIBUNE REPORTER

The number of fall credit hours students are taking at the local community college has fallen by about 40% of where the college was at this time in 2010. Illinois Valley’s Community College’s fall 10th day enrollment numbers are in for this fall: As of Aug. 28, the total number of credit hours was 25,338.5 hours. In 2010, that number was at 42,328 credit hours, according to IVCC numbers. The budget for Fiscal Year 2020 was built on the assumption of 53,000 total credit hours inclusive of Summer 2019, Fall 2019 and Spring 2020 semesters, said Mark Grzybowski, IVCC’s vice president for student services.

IVCC union: ‘Bad-faith bargaining’ the reason for unfair labor practice charges College and union reach compromise after charges filed By Ali Braboy

NEWSTRIBUNE REPORTER

Illinois Valley Community College’s teacher union agreed to withdraw its four unfair labor practice charges following a compromise between IVCC and the union. Thursday night, the college’s trustees approved an agreement months after the union filed the charges. In April, the Local 1810 of the American Federation of Teachers filed four unfair labor practice charges against the college to the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board. The NewsTribune obtained the charges after requesting them from the Labor Relations Board, a state agency administering the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Act, which establishes the right of educational employees to organize and bargain collectively. Since April, the union and IVCC worked internally to resolve the issues, a representative from the union said. IVCC president Jerry Corcoran provided the following statement Friday: “The bottom line is I think our board chair said it best months

ago when publically stating that there is absolutely no doubt about the board’s commitment to making IVCC a wonderful place in which to work and where every employee is valued. Our hope is that we can now move forward together and focus our efforts on what we can do to boost enrollments and grow the local economy for the betterment of the entire district.” UNFAIR LABOR PRACTICE CHARGES: 1. (Filed April 15) During the 2018-19 school year, the Educational Excellence Council (made up of representatives from the union and college) reached an agreement on a matter presented to the EEC in regard to union members accepting class assignments above the defined load in the collective bargaining agreement. These teaching assignments are referred to as “overload” assignments. Such assignments come with a stipend for the additional work. On or about Oct. 10, 2018, the EEC reached a solution outlining the process of calculating hours, wages and other terms and conditions of employment for any union member affected by this situation. This letter was then submitted to the president’s office to be implemented as a procedure moving forward.

As of the date of this filing, there was no record this letter was delivered to the board of trustees by the college president, and the recommendation contained in this letter hadn’t yet been implemented by the college. 2. (Filed April 15) During the spring semester of the 2018-19 school year, the EEC reached an agreement on a matter presented to EEC in regard to union members attaining academic coursework that entitled the members to horizontal movement on the salary schedule in the collective bargaining agreement. On or about Feb. 20, 2019, EEC reached a solution outlining the process of calculating hours, wages and other terms and conditions of employment for any union member affected by this situation. This letter was then submitted to the president’s office to be implemented as a procedure moving forward. As of the date of this filing, there was no record this letter has been delivered to the board of trustees by the college president. Furthermore, the recommendations contained in the letter hadn’t yet been implemented by the college. 3. (Filed April 15) Beginning in the fall of the 2018-19 academic year, EEC met several times. EEC has created letters jointly approved by all members of EEC. However, the college

appointees of EEC “now are not willing to sign such letters. Instead, the letters are taken to the president of the college and the board of trustees for discussion in closed session. No response to the letter is ever given unless the letter is acted upon in open session. The union has never been officially notified that the college has no longer allowed the college appointees of EEC to make decisions and reach agreements in EEC.” 4. (Filed April 24) The union stated the college took part in “bad faith bargaining” following negotiations in August 2018 when the union was concerned about the disparity between pay rates for adjunct instructors and union members teaching “overload” courses. After an agreement was made between the union and IVCC, IVCC gave another raise to adjuncts that continued the pay gap disparity. WHAT DID THE COLLEGE’S TRUSTEES APPROVE THURSDAY NIGHT? Trustees approved a “letter of agreement” regarding overload pay for union faculty. Full-time faculty overload pay will increase from $680 to $700 per credit hour this academic year and from $690 to $720 per hour in 2020-21. The change will be made to the current three-year collective bargaining agreement See IVCC Page A4

Setback for lawyers in prostitution cases Judge limits the use of taping in the remaining ‘johns’ cases By Tom Collins

NEWSTRIBUNE SENIOR REPORTER

OTTAWA — Investigators who organized an April prostitution sting got the OK to make an “overhear” recording while nine men allegedly tried to solicit prostitutes — but it looks now as if the recording won’t be played for any jury. James G. Schaefer of Peru, one of the nine suspected “johns,” went to court Thursday hoping a judge would effectively throw out his case by barring the recording and everything in it.

Chief Judge H. Chris Ryan Jr. wouldn’t go that far — Schaefer still is charged with a misdemeanor and will stand trial Oct. 9 — but the judge put strict limits on what prosecutors can present to the jury. Schaefer and his lawyers argued the recording was illegal because prosecutors cited the wrong section of Illinois law when they OK’d the use of recording equipment. Peru attorneys Tim Gatza and Zach Milus said this was no minor error; Illinois courts have ruled “strict compliance” is required when recording private conversations and failing to dot the Is and cross the Ts renders any recording admissible. “You can’t just record all you want and then, down the road, say, ‘This is what we meant to do,’” Gatza argued, asking the judge to toss the recording and

‘The stretch they’re trying to make is too much.’ —Jason Goode, arguing for the judge to allow recordings as evidence at trial everything in it. Assistant La Salle County state’s attorney Jason Goode argued the wrong citation was little more than a typo (a “scrivener’s error,” in legal parlance) and doesn’t change the fact police and prosecutors did their due diligence. “The stretch they’re trying to make is too much,” Goode said, urging Ryan to uphold the recording. Ryan, however, would do neither.

In a mixed ruling, Ryan refused to suppress the recording and to kick the legs out from under Schaefer’s case. But in the next breath, the judge ruled that prosecutors cannot use the recording in making their case in chief. The only way jurors will learn what was caught on tape is if prosecutors think a key witness is fibbing, in which case they can trot out the recording and let jurors decide whether to believe the witness or the tape. The upshot is that Schaefer and five others awaiting trial (three men entered misdemeanor pleas) are still facing charges, but at least won’t have any incriminating tape to contend with.

Mendota businesses see window damage By the NewsTribune staff

MENDOTA — An investigation stemming from broken windows and burglary reports this week and two incidents Thursday morning led to a burglary charges and an arrest in Mendota. At about 9:37 a.m. Thursday, Mendota police received a report of a smash-andgrab burglary at 726 Main Street. “Witnesses Hynes reported to police observing a subject known to authorities as Craig J. Hynes, 54 of 706 Pennsylvania Ave., in the vicinity of the burglary and was furthermore observed carrying two framed pieces of sports memorabilia away from the retail store,” Mendota police said just after noon Thursday. “Mendota officers located Hynes one block away with the merchandise in hand. Hynes was taken into custody at that time.” La Salle County State’s

Attorney’s Office approved two counts of burglary against Hynes, pending a mental health evaluation later this week, Mendota police said. After detaining Hynes, Mendota police say later learned that Hynes was a suspect in a burglary to Anderson Mosshart Clothing at about 8:15 a.m., “where he had once again thrown two rocks through the front win-

Parolee charged less than a month after prison release By Kim Shute

BUREAU-PUTNAM BUREAU CHIEF

PRINCETON — An altercation with police could result in a lengthy sentence for a Spring Valley man just paroled for a drug related sentence. Jose L. Arteaga, 37, was arraigned in Bureau County Court Friday on three counts of aggra-

vated battery, each a Class 2 felony. He has pleaded not guilty. Arteaga was charged as a result of an incident Aug. 19 where he allegedly battered two females inside a Spring Valley residence. When police arrived, they say Arteaga resisted arrest. It was reported that it took seven officers to hold Arteaga down while attempting to handcuff him. Arteaga continued to kick at police officers after he was handcuffed and struck Spring Valley police chief Kevin Sangston, deputy chief Bill Sommer and officer Josh Pellegrini in their legs.

The board this week learned people are now living where a business once had been at a commercial property on Main Street, near First Street. That’s a violation of the commercial district ordinance that prohibits residential use of first-floor commercial prop-

dows and committed a theft of clothing,” according to the press release. Police said “Hynes has been responsible for numerous smashand-grab burglaries as well as extensive criminal damage to storefront windows including, 804 Washington St., 711 Washington St,, 726 Main St., 726 Illinois Ave., 783 Main St,, 701 Illinois Ave,, and 604 Sixth St.”

Richey Street is pursuing electric hook-up with ComEd and requested water hook-up by the village. The board denied the request Monday. ä The board determined to chain and lock the

the entire college, but said it would be without his principles to address his thoughts. “It bothers me,” that this event came about after a “begrudgement of giving raises to the part time adjuncts,” he said. He said that while fulltime faculty are the stars of the education production at IVCC, everyone is a supporting cast member, and the adjuncts play an important role in bringing industry, experience and examples to students at the college. He said he hopes everyone can move past this and work together to serve students.

UNION MAKES COMMENT TOWARD TRUSTEE “Mr. Mallery’s statement exemplifies the reasons IFT Local 1810 filed Unfair Labor Practice charges against IVCC. No matter how anyone tries to reframe this, the ULPs were always about bad-faith bargaining; we made it clear to the Board many times that we support raises for parttime faculty. We feel we’ve reached an honest compromise but hope the rest of the Board understands the true nature of the ULPs.”

mph and he said he was disappointed with the IDOT decision, following a traffic flow study, not to lower it to 35 or 30 mph “I personally disagree with that (decision),” Damron said. “Traffic is moving too fast down from Route 6 and up the hill from the Utica shortcut with the new school now open. It’s a safety issue.” Damron and Stewart both said they would con-

tinue to press IDOT again on the speed limit issue in the near future.

IN OTHER BUSINESS: The board set Halloween trick-or-treat hours from 6 to 8 p.m. and approved a $3,000 contribution to the La Salle County Historical Society to help offset the costs of its annual Burgoo Festival in the village scheduled for the weekend Oct. 12 and 13.

Witnesses say Arteaga, who had destroyed the apartment where he was apprehended, was “swearing, sweating profusely and covered in blood.” Prior convictions mean Arteaga, who was on parole at the time of the incident, can be sentenced as a Class X felon. Judge C.J. Hollerich, citing case law, told Arteaga that if he is convicted on two or more counts, he could be required to serve his sentences either concurrently or consecutively. If sentenced to consecutive sentences, he faces an aggregate sentence of 18-28

years in prison. Should he serve the sentences concurrently, he could face up to 30 years. His previous convictions included Class 2 battery in 2012, Class 2 burglary in 2012 and Class 2 unlawful delivery of a controlled substance (heroin) in 2016. Arteaga was released from prison on July 29 of this year. Arteaga, represented by Public Defender Michael Henneberry, is scheduled for trial Nov. 18. He is in custody of Bureau County Jail in lieu of $150,000 bond, 10% of which must be paid for his release.

Psalm 23 is one of the most quoted passages of Scripture. There is good reason for that. Psalm 23 is a bedrock. It outlines our relationship with God particularly in trying and uncertain times. I’ve found that reading this text in various transPastor lations has Christy-Anne illuminated new facets of Curry this gem of ABUNDANT LIFE Scripture. FELLOWSHIP, The Passion LA SALLE Translation states, “The Lord is my best friend and my shepherd. I always have more than enough.” This first verse of Psalm 23 is worth meditating on day and night. It speaks to the two basic human needs: provision and connection. We are never alone. We always have enough.

Verse two continues, “He offers a resting place for me in his luxurious love. His tracks take me to an oasis of peace, the quiet brook of bliss.” How many of use yearn for a resting place? How beautiful to consider the love of God as luxurious. Verse 3 states, “That’s where he restores and revives my life. He opens before me pathways to God’s pleasure and leads me along in his footsteps of righteousness so that I can bring honor to his name.” How do we live good lives, pleasing to God? We simply receive the atoning work of Jesus Christ and follow him. He restores and revives us. Verse 4 is an anchor to the soul. “Lord, even when your path takes me through the valley of deepest darkness, fear will never conquer me, for you already have! You remain close to me and lead me through it all the way. Your authority is my strength and my peace. The comfort of your love takes away my fear. I’ll never be lonely for you are near.” Ever since I read

that verse, it has been ringing in my soul. “Fear will never conquer me for you already have.” It is interesting to think of our hearts as kingdoms and to consider whose rule our hearts are under. We can be ruled by fear or by the love of God, but the two never rule together. In each season of life God wants to remain close to us and lead us through it all the way. His authority gives us peace. Verse 5 tells us “You (God) become my delicious feast even when my enemies dare to fight. You anoint me with the fragrance of your Holy Spirit; you give me all I can drink of you until my heart overflows.” What if our friendship with God is the place we most abound in our lives? What if even when fear, stress and worry knock at the doors of our souls, we are too occupied with the lover of our soul to answer the door? That’s what David expresses and can be true for everyone. We are made to feast on the goodness of God and to

be held captive by his beauty. The psalm concludes with this charge: “So why would I fear the future? For your goodness and love pursue me all the days of my life. Then afterward, when my life is through, I’ll return to your glorious presence to be forever with you.” We can rest assured God’s goodness and love will be with us. We have no reason to fear. And even when our life on earth is done, we get to live in this lavish love of God; forever with him in his presence. Psalm 23 is the anthem of our souls. It expresses our design as ones who were made to know God and follow his leadership in our lives. No circumstance of our lives is to be walked alone. He is always with us. His goodness and love are ever ready to meet us. Christians are made to be the most fearless people in the world. We are meant to be captivated by the very nature of God and to be full of his love and goodness in every season.

Dear Bad Influence: Harriette Cole We do now live in a UNIVERSAL culture where being UCLICK an â&#x20AC;&#x153;inďŹ&#x201A;uencerâ&#x20AC;? is a thing. But it has always been true that some people in a community stand out as the ones who attract more attention than others, possibly get more opportunities and even make more money. When a person rises up the food chain, so to speak, and becomes attractive to a much broader group of people, it can be oďŹ&#x20AC;-putting to the personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s core group of friends.

al-life friends to see your proďŹ le grow. Honestly, it is probably daunting for you, too. How you can attempt to manage your personal life and your inďŹ&#x201A;uencer life is to remember that one is work and one is not. Your personal life should remain important to you because those relationships should be grounded in people actually knowing you, not just what you present to the public. Speak to your friends honestly. Let them know that you do hope that your inďŹ&#x201A;uencer status will help you with your work pursuits, but you do not want to lose their friendships. Tell them how important they are to you. Remind them that you knew them way before you began to reach inďŹ&#x201A;uencer status, and you value them tremendously. Tell them it has hurt your feelings when they have ditched you. Ask if you have done something to oďŹ&#x20AC;end them. Talk out whatever is going on. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how you will know if you will be able to survive this bumpy part of your friendships.

Dear Harriette: I feel like many of the friends Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve known since I was in high school are resentful of me ever since Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve become an inďŹ&#x201A;uencer. I feel like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m being mistreated and get ditched by them occasionally. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure if it is me changing or them being jealous of me. I want to talk to them about this before I end our friendships. How should I discuss this with them? SENSE & â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Bad Influence

Fashion Week: Organizers warn of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Brexitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; risks By Gregory Katz ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

LONDON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; British fashion oďŹ&#x192;cials are warning about the perils of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;no-dealâ&#x20AC;? Brexit as London Fashion Week begins. At an opening event Friday morning, Stephanie Phair, chairwoman of the British Fashion Council, said the industry is urging Britainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s government to ďŹ nd a Brexit deal rather than leave the European Union without new arrangements in place. She said studies show a â&#x20AC;&#x153;no-dealâ&#x20AC;? Brexit would cost the fashion industry well over 800 million pounds ($1 billion) and urged the government to negotiate a deal that would ensure â&#x20AC;&#x153;the healthy and steady growth of the fashion industry.â&#x20AC;? She spoke at the start of a ďŹ ve-day fashion fest that will feature big names like Burberry, Christopher Kane and Victoria Beckham. One of the main events is a Fashion for Relief fashion show organized by model Naomi Campbell. Many of the shows are also expected to showcase up-and-coming designers.

Mautino, Cooke dispute headed back to appeals court The Cooke-Mautino fight over gas receipts is headed back to an appeals court in Springfield — again. This week, lawyers for Illinois auditor general Frank Mautino filed a motion for rehearing before the 4th District Appellate Court. At issue are the gas and auto repair receipts that

Mautino racked up during his tenure as state representative. Last month, the 4 th District Appellate Court largely ruled in favor of David Cooke, the former Streator resident who disputed Mautino’s receipts. Now, Mautino’s lawyers say the appeals court got part of the ruling wrong and that Mautino is enti-

tled to a new hearing. New proceedings are pending in Springfield, though the 4 th District clerk’s oﬃce said Friday there is no brieﬁng schedule at this time. This all but ensures the campaign dispute will spill into a fourth calendar year. -By Tom Collins

Huffman gets 14 days behind bars in college admissions scam By Collin Binkley AP EDUCATION WRITER

BOSTON (AP) — “Desperate Housewives” star Felicity Huffman was sentenced Friday to 14 days in prison for paying $15,000 to rig her daughter’s SAT scores, tearfully apologizing to the teenager for not trusting her to get into college on her own. “I was frightened, I was stupid, and I was so wrong,” Huffman, 56, said as she became the first parent sentenced in a college admissions scandal that ensnared dozens of wealthy and well-connected mothers and fathers. The scandal exposed the lengths

parents will go to get their children into the “right” schools and reinforced suspicions that the college admissions process is slanted toward the rich. In sentencing Huffman, U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani noted the outrage the case has generated, adding that it “isn’t because people discovered that it isn’t a true meritocracy out there.” The outrage, she said, was because Huffman took steps “to get one more advantage” in a system “already so distorted by money and privilege.” Prosecutors had sought a month in prison for Huffman.

Cavs crush Indians

By Jared Bell SHAW MEDIA

MINONK — The Fieldcrest football team felt right at home Friday. After the Knights outscored their first two opponents by 65 points in two road victories to open the season, Fieldcrest continued to roll in Friday’s home opener as it steamrolled Tremont for a 42-7 victory. “We just came out and executed so well,” Fieldcrest coach Derek Schneeman said. “Our plan was to hopefully score early and, with their offense being so run-heavy, we felt that if we could get up on them early that it’d be tough for them to get back into the game.” Fieldcrest dominated the Heart of Illinois Conference crossover as it scored the game’s final 35 points, held the Turks’ to 152 yards of total offense and scored a touchdown on every possession except its final one when it ran the victory formation. “That’s exactly where we want to be,” Schneeman said of the offense, which had 181 yards rushing and 260 yards passing for 441 yards of total offense. “If we can get the run game going early, it really sets up our quick passing game and that sets up our double moves. When we can do that, that’s when our offense is at its best.” With the big victory, Fieldcrest now faces its biggest challenge of the season as next Friday Class 2A’s No. 8-ranked team (3-0) will play host to 2A No. 1 Gibson City-Melvin-Sibley (3-0), the two-time defending 2A state champions who have the state’s longest current winning streak at 31 games. “We know they’re good and we know they have a big streak going,” Fieldcrest senior quarterback Matt Lorton said. “We’re See KNIGHTS Page B3

Other than quarterback Tyler Hartman’s helmet breaking on the ﬁrst oﬀensive play, not much went wrong for La Salle-Peru on Friday night. The Cavaliers scored on their opening drive and capitalized on a bad punt snap by Sandwich to grab the momentum early and roll to a 52-7 victory in the Interstate Eight Conference opener for both teams at Howard Fellows Stadium in Peru. “We played great,” L-P junior fullback Carlos Larios said. “We

Last week’s performance: Walk displayed his explosive speed in Hall’s 47-22 victory over Bureau Valley during Week 2’s game in Manlius. He broke free for touchdown runs of 75 and 70 yards as he finished with 206 yards on just seven carries. Walk on his accomplishments: I thought the game overall, we played very well. We got the job done. The offensive line did a great job of getting their blocks for me. They really opened up the holes, which was very big for all our running backs. It helped us get some yards. Coach Randy Tieman says: I thought Marshall ran the ball a lot better in Week 2 than he did in Week 1 (against Newman). We were able to get to the outside. If he gets the edge, he’s gone with the speed he has and his ability to get out there.

executed on oﬀense. The defense stepped up and played to their expectations. The special teams also went out and executed and did their thing. It was a great game all around.” Sandwich, a school of 698 students, had a rude welcome to a conference that has an average enrollment of 1,084.4 among the other seven schools. “L-P is big, fast and physical,” Sandwich coach Kris Cassie said. “That’s a heck of a football team there. We just have to get used to this level of competition. We haven’t seen teams this big and fast before. We did some

positive things and we did some things we have to clean up with the penalties, but there’s going to be a growth period.” On L-P’s fourth oﬀensive play, Julius Sanchez took a toss to the left side and weaved through the Indians defense for a 59-yard touchdown run. The Cavs forced Sandwich into a fourth-and-13, but the snap sailed way over the head of punter Cole Mansur, causing him to dive on the ball for a 19yard loss that set L-P up at the Sandwich 19. Five plays later, Larios rumbled into the end zone for a 16-

yard touchdown and a 14-0 lead with 6:11 left in the first quarter. “It’s good momentum,” L-P coach Jose Medina said. “When you go up on a team 14 points within the first six minutes, it drags the team down. I think that’s a positive for us. We kept that momentum going and we continued to move the ball.” The Cavs (2-1, 1-0 I8) scored on five of their six drives in the first half, racked up 364 yards on the ground in the game, never had to punt and scored more than 50 points for the first time since beating Dixon 53-14 in See CAVS Page B3

FOOTBALL: PRINCETON 49, ST. BEDE 7

Tigers get back on track

For six days, the Princeton football team’s disappointing loss at Sterling Newman — a game it led by 11 points at halftime, weighed heavily on the Tigers. On Friday night, PHS washed the bad taste out of its mouth. Princeton dominated rival St. Bede 49-7 in the Three Rivers Mississippi Conference opener at Bryant Field, evoking the running clock late in the third quarter with its seventh score of the game.

“Coming oﬀ a hard loss like that, you get to come out and with all that anger, and that’s what we did. And we played as a team, we won as a team and came out angry as a team,” said Princeton junior running back Ronde Worrels, who scored four touchdowns and rushed for 126 yards. PHS coach Ryan Pearson was pleased to see his team respond so well after last week’s defeat. “Obviously, last week was a disappointing loss for our kids. At the same time, this is the ﬁrst conference game for us. Goal No.

1 is to win the big side of the conference, and we accomplished the first step tonight,” Pearson said. Worrels gave the Tigers a 14-7 lead with a 13-yard touchdown late in the first quarter. After the Tigers recovered an onside kick, Worrels cashed in a 5-yard score on the first play of the second quarter to make it 21-7 with Jamie Reinhardt’s PAT kick. Pearson said the onside kick was planned going in. See TIGERS Page B2

FOOTBALL: ROCKFORD LUTHERAN 47, MENDOTA 0

Trojans can’t get offense going in loss to Crusaders By Brandon LaChance SHAW MEDIA

MENDOTA — After an accident on I-39 delayed the Rockford Lutheran football team’s bus and pushed the start of Friday’s Big Northern Conference game from 7 p.m. to 7:45 p.m., fans were curious to see how the teams would play. Mendota had a tough time starting the offense, while the Crusaders were able to run for big chunks of yards early and often. The Lutheran running attack took over the game en route to a 47-0 victory over Mendota.

“Special teams play set us behind the 8-ball starting behind the 10-yard line numerous times with undisciplined play,” second-year MHS coach Keegan Hill said. “Offensively, we were outmatched on the line of scrimmage. We were trying to read people with difficult matchups that were hard to overcome. We didn’t overcome them tonight. “We should have opened it up a little bit sooner to make the defense play in space. We did it in the second half, but we should have gotten to it sooner.” The Trojans finished with 46 total yards of offense behind a

6-of-15 throwing effort from sophomore quarterback Ted Landgraf for 45 yards and an interception. The MHS rushing game was held to 1 yard on 10 carries. Senior Tiger Brown recorded 16 carries for 184 yards and four touchdowns for Lutheran. As a collective, the Crusaders tallied 343 yards and seven touchdowns on 47 carries. “Brown had a great game tonight. I couldn’t be more proud of him,” first-year RL coach Tony Ambrogio said. “He had a real bounce back game. We ran a lot of veer and a lot of isolation runs with him. I think we picked

on the right side a lot tonight. I don’t know if that was part of our game plan, but that’s where we were getting some cutbacks and finding our holes. So, that’s what we stuck with.” MHS (0-3, 0-3 BNC) had three first downs in the first half and one in the second half, while the Crusaders (2-1, 2-1 BNC) had 23 in the game with 15 in the first two quarters and eight in the last two. Hill knows he has a young team and games like this can happen. He expects his players to continue to improve at practice and get ready for their Week 4 BNC

game at Genoa-Kingston. “We have a chance to reflect with a young team that’s learning how to play,” Hill said. “We just have to put our best foot forward to recover and be prepared to go to Genoa next week. We started eight sophomores last week and eight this week. “We have a young group that’s coachable, but they have to go through some growing pains.”

Tigers

off to our defense. They did a great job after that first touchdown. Special teams had a great game with the onside kick with Jamie,” Pearson said. Noah Atkinson kick-started the Tigers with a 63-yard touchdown less than three minutes into the game. St. Bede responded nicely, mounting a 10-play, 75-yard scoring drive, capped by a 28yard TD strike from quarterback Braden Damerell to Tyreke Fortney with 3:55 left in the first quarter. Princeton, however, dominated the rest of the game. “I was happy with (our scoring drive), but I wasn’t real happy with what we did the rest of the time,” St. Bede coach Jim Eustice said. “We really have a lot of work to do. (Princeton) is a good football team, but some of the things we did we need to stop. The young team is no longer an excuse. They’ve had three varsity games now. It’s time to start strapping it up and growing up.”

Worrels added his fourth touchdown of the night early in the third quarter to make it 42-7, crediting his line for their work up front. “I would say maybe one of those was me and three of those was the line probably,” Worrels said.

Sports FOOTBALL: HALL 35, MONMOUTH-ROSEVILLE 12

Red Devils run past Titans in conference opener By Brad Martin Sr. SHAW MEDIA

The Hall football team dominated the line of scrimmage from the opening series and cruised to 35-12 victory over MonmouthRoseville in a Three Rivers Conference Mississippi game Friday. On the first play of the night, Austin Heinecke broke outside and ran down to the sideline for a 66-yard run that helped setup a 16-yard touchdown run from freshman quarterback Mac Resetich that gave the Red Devils (2-0, 1-0 TRC Mississippi) a 7-0 lead. On the Titans’ opening series, it appeared as if they were going to tie it up. Jack Thompson ran the ball on a QB keeper to prolong the drive before finding Derek Chandler for a 12-yard pass. However, the drive stalled at the 30-yard line. On Hall’s next drive, Heinecke ran for 7 yards before Cole Wozniak had runs of 7 and 12 yards to set up first-and-goal. On third-and-goal, Resetich ran it in from a yard out to give the Red Devils a 14-0 lead. “The guys up front did an outstanding job blocking tonight,” Hall coach Randy Tieman said. “The front seven really with the tight ends. (Fullback) Jose Castro may not have had a lot of carries, but he might be the MVP tonight with his blocking.” Both defenses tightened up the next couple of drives, but in the

The Titans came out of halftime strong with runs of 5 and 7 before a 20-yard screen pass to Derek Chandler set up a 1-yard touchdown run by Carter Russell to make it 28-6. Hall responded as Wozniak ran off left tackle for a 27-yard run on the first play of the ensuing possession. Dalton Brust rumbled 13 yards and Wozniak ran for another 9 before rushing for a 13-yard touchdown to expand the lead to 35-6. “The guys up front were the difference tonight,” Heinecke said. “Opening holes like that really makes it easy for the rest of us.” Less than 90 seconds after the Hall score, the Titans scored on a 54-yard pass from Thompson to Rashaun King. “Defensively, I thought we played really well tonight,” Tieman said. “We had a pass interference which was a little iffy and then we just had a coverage mishap on that long pass play. Other than that we were solid all around.” Heinecke led the Red Devils with 140 yards and a touchdown SHAW MEDIA PHOTO/KAREN KLOPIC on 12 carries, while Wozniak had 127 yards and two scores on 16 Hall freshman quarterback Mac Reseitch (No. 24) runs the ball during the Red Devils’ 35-12 victory over Moncarries. mouth-Roseville in a Three Rivers Conference Mississippi Division game Friday in Spring Valley.

Week 6 of the 2012 season. Larios finished with 104 yards and two touchdowns on 11 carries — all in the first half — Hartman racked up 127 yards and a pair of scores on nine attempts and Sanchez finished with 84 yards and a TD on six carries. “It all starts with the offensive line,” Larios said. “Without them, I’m not able to run the ball or our slots or quarterback. “I read my blocks. Once I saw I was able to move the ball, it boosted my confidence. I let that affect my game. I kept telling myself I needed more and more.” After managing just 216 yards and seven points through the first six quarters of the season, the Cavs have racked up 685 yards and 89 points in the last six quarters.

just hoping to come out, do our jobs and have another fun game.” Just like Fieldcrest had loads of fun Friday. Receiving the opening kick, the Knights marched 73 yards on the opening drive and scored when Lorton plunged in for a 1-yard TD run with 6:22 left in the first quarter, but the Turks (2-1) responded as they marched the field and scored on a 4-yard TD run to tie the game at 7-7 with 2:06 to go in the first. After that it was all Fieldcrest.

“I think they’re starting to believe and starting to understand where the holes are, how to keep the ball and make the right reads,” Medina said. “I think it’s carrying on from last week. This is another good victory, but we have a tough opponent next week in Rochelle. This is something we can continue to move forward with.” Defensively, the Cavs limited the Indians to 174 total yards with 30 yards coming on a halfback pass from Jackson Murphy to James Coleman for Sandwich’s lone touchdown and another 48 on a run by Nic Lidinsky on the scoring drive. “Defensively, we’re a slanting team and we’re a fast team,” Medina said. “We just try to grind it out. We’re still giving up some big plays on third-and-longs. We’re more of a bend don’t break type of style, but this is the third week in a row the defense has played pretty well.”

Lidinsky finished with 99 yards on 19 carries for the Indians (2-1, 0-1 I8), who committed 10 penalties and had 13 plays go for negative yardage. “Penalties hurt us bad,” Kassie said. “We did it to ourselves on a lot of drives. We had fumbled snaps and just not disciplined football that we’re used to playing. “It’s mistakes we were able to get away with the first two weeks but not against a team like this. Eventually, mistakes will catch up with you if you don’t fix them. We had some mistakes the first two games and were able to overcome them. Tonight, we weren’t able to. We’re just going to have to get back to work and get ready for next week.” Kevin Chlum can be reached at 220-6939, or at sports@newstrib. com. Follow him on Twitter @ NT_SportsEditor.

“(The score by Tremont) was a bit of a wakeup call. It was good to see our guys respond because we scored right away and then got a stop on defense.” Fieldcrest coach Derek Schneeman “(The score right away by Tremont) was a bit of a wakeup call,” Schneeman said. “It was good to see our guys respond because we scored right away and then got a stop on defense.” Tied after the first quarter,

senior running back Kenton Castrejon gave Fieldcrest the lead with a 10-yard TD run early in the second quarter, and senior running back Keegan Robbins found pay dirt on a 1-yard TD run to give the Knight a 21-7 lead at half.

Members of the La Salle-Peru student section cheer during the Cavaliers’ 52-7 victory over Sandwich on Friday at Howard Fellows Stadium on Peru. The L-P superfans saw the Cavs score more than 50 points for the first time since a 53-14 victory over Dixon in Week 6 of the 2012 season.

To start the second half, Fieldcrest recovered a muffed, accidental onside kick and scored when Lorton threw a 39-yard TD pass to junior receiver Jaxon Cusac-McKay. The score was the dagger and gave the Knights a 28-7 lead just 1:50 into the third. “To be honest, (the onside kick) wasn’t called,” Schneemann said. “We were supposed to kick more of a sky to the right, but we misshit it and fortunately, it rolled our way and we recovered it. That was a big momentum shift.” Castrejon added a 1-yard TD run late in the third to make it 34-7 after three quarters, and junior quarterback Cory Land

threw a 30-yard TD pass to junior receiver Henry Lorton early in the fourth quarter to cap the win. Castrejon finished with 162 yards rushing and two TDs, while Matt Lorton threw for 194 yards. Cusac-McKay had 85 yards receiving and a TD catch, while Henry Lorton had three catches for 58 yards and a TD. The Knights defense was once again stout as it held the Turks to 99 yards of rushing and 53 yards of passing. “Our defense has been awesome this year,” Matt Lorton said. “Our defense always builds off each other, and we played even better after they scored.”

Short-handed Storm Wedding dress fitting guide struggle in Fulton

By Tommy Rose SHAW MEDIA

FULTON — Bureau Valley took the field at Fulton with high hopes of nabbing its first win of the season after tough losses to Erie-Prophetstown and Hall. However, the Storm — who were two key players short due to injuries to Mac Nugent and Tucker Hartz — started strong but it was all downhill from there as Fulton took advantage of BV turnovers to capture a 54-6 win. The Storm received the first crack with the ball, and BV quarterback Dalton Dean went to work leading his team steadily down the field for a 52-yard drive resulting in a touchdown on a pass from Dean to Evan Eckberg to give the Storm the first lead of the game at 6-0. “We came in pretty shorthanded to begin with,” BV coach Mat Pistole said. “But the kids came out on the first drive and executed perfectly.” The Storm’s PAT kick was blocked. The Steamers wasted no time answering back as Kyler Pessman — in his first game back from injury this season — streaked 63 yards on Fulton’s first offensive play to score with the successful PAT kick giving Fulton a 7-6 lead. A costly fumble by BV on its next drive allowed Fulton another visit to the end zone, this time on an 11-yard keeper by QB Connor Barnett at 6:32 in the first quarter. The successful PAT kick by Eathan Long put the Steamers further ahead at 14-6. The Storm had a scare on their next drive when running back James Macklin was picked up and slammed to the ground by a Fulton defender. After a few tense minutes on his back, Macklin was able to leave the field on his own. “It’s above his ankle, so it’ll be day to day. We’ll have to wait and see,” Pistole said. The absence of Macklin prompted BV to set Dean in the backfield, while Eckberg took his place under center. Eckberg was welcomed by the Steamer defense with a sack by Pessman for a 15-yard loss, putting the

ball back in the Steamers’ hands. Pessman was handed the ball again by Barnett on the Steamers’ next possession, and forged ahead to score on a 43-yard touchdown run at 3:19 in the first quarter. “It felt great to be back,” Pessman said. “I was patiently waiting for my time and I left it all on the field today. I give credit to my line, they were great.” Long kicked another successful PAT to increase Fulton’s advantage to 21-6 where it stayed for the rest of the first quarter. The Steamers struck again to start the second quarter with a 39-yard TD pass from Barnett to Brock Mason at 11:22. The PAT kick was blocked, bringing Fulton’s lead to 27-6. Another costly turnover by BV — this time a fumble at its own 29-yard line — set the stage for yet another Steamers touchdown with Pessman once again crossing the goal line on a 32-yard run. The PAT kick was good to up the Steamers’ advantage to 34-6. Turnovers came to haunt the Storm again on their next possession when Ethan Long intercepted a BV pass near midfield, leading to a Fulton touchdown by Jacob Jones to stretch out the Steamers’ lead to 40-6. BV couldn’t catch a break as it was forced to punt on its next possession. Fulton took advantage of the field position as Ethan Rash became the next Steamer to visit the end zone, putting Fulton further ahead at 47-6 to end the first half. The third quarter started with a continuous clock, and BV’s woes continued when a blocked Storm punt set up Fulton’s final score of the game at 2:41 to get a 54-6 lead. “Those two missing guys were important defensively as well as offensively,” Pistole said. “We had to dial back our playbook significantly because we had kids playing out of position. “When you do that, with Fulton as well coached as they are, they’re going to make adjustments. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to install answers in such a short time period.”

Because fashion preferences were once ornate and dependent on precise fits, ready-to-wear clothing really did not become widely available until the early 20th century. Such attire is now available in just about any retail store. Because ready-to-wear clothing is so readily available, the average person may be unfamiliar with custom-made or tailored items. Fittings are a part of wedding planning, and here’s how brides-to-be can navigate the process of finding and being fitted for a dress. Q Try on sample gowns. The first step is to make your rounds to various gown shops and try on the samples they have available. Most sample sizes will not be the size you wear every day, so expect them to be ill-fitting. Do not be discouraged. Once a gown is chosen, the dress shop will take your measurements and order the gown according to the manufacturer’s sizing guide. Again, this can be shocking, since the size will likely be larger than what you wear in street clothes. Some shops will also order a little larger to allow for adequate tailoring. Q Schedule the first fitting. The first fitting should be anywhere from eight to 12 weeks before the wedding date, according to experts at WeddingWire, an online wedding informa-

tion provider. This is the time it takes to complete most standard alterations. Complex customizations can take even longer. Brides should also budget a minimum of $500 for alterations, which may or may not be included in the price of the dress. Q Bring shoes and undergarments. Remember to bring along the exact shoes and undergarments you will wear with your gown. A change in shoes or bra/ corset can result in the alterations fitting poorly the next time. Bring these items along to all subsequent fittings. Q Speak up. Martha Stewart Weddings suggests speaking up at fittings if anything is uncomfortable or needs tweaking. Seamstresses are masters at their crafts, but only if they understand the desires of the bride. Q Check the details. The second fitting is designed to check that all issues from the first fitting have been addressed, the gown is comfortable and you can move freely. At the last fitting, ask the maid of honor to come along so that she understands how to bustle or help you handle complicated straps or closures. Open communication with a seamstress and bridal shop can ensure brides-to-be get a dress that fits like a glove. BR191595

Alternatives to engagement rings Counting Down Engagement rings are often sizable investments. Money magazine reports the average engagement ring costs around $5,800. An engagement ring symbolizes the start of a lifelong commitment and may even set the tone for a couple’s wedding day. Jewelry styles are personal, and grooms-to-be should carefully research their significant others’ preferences in terms of precious metals, colors and gemstones. Even though tradition holds that a diamond gemstone is classic for engagement rings, these precious stones are not the only options. In fact, before World War II, just 10 percent of proposals involved diamond engagement rings. That number jumped to 80 percent by 1990. However, many modern couples now lean toward other oﬀerings not only for the uniqueness

they provide, but also for the potential cost savings. Those seeking something unique can embrace these engagement ring options. Q Amethyst: This vibrant, lavender-hued stone can be breathtaking when cut the correct way. Purple shades have long been associated with royalty, making an amethyst fitting for such an occasion as special as an engagement. Because amethysts, which are less expensive than diamonds, are a seven on the Mohs scale for gemstone hardness, they can be very durable. Q Knot rings: These rings do not have a center stone. Rather, they’re designed to be a tied knot or infinity symbol. These rings can be particularly sentimental as they represent true, unbroken love. Q Opal: Gemstones, like flowers, have been assigned certain meanings. Tying the

engagement ring to one of them can infuse more symbolism into the relationship. Opal, for example, represents love, passion, creativity, spontaneity, and inspiration. Those traits seem tailor-made for surprise proposals. Q Sapphire: While sapphire stones often are blue, they can also be yellow, green, pink, and white. Sapphires are the third hardest mineral. A white sapphire can be the perfect diamond replacement. Q Garnet or ruby: Red is the deﬁnitive color of love. A Valentine’s Day proposal can be made even more

special by presenting an engagement ring with a red gemstone. Q Moissanite: The jewelry source Brilliant Earth says moissanite is a gemstone ﬁrst discovered in 1893 by Henri Moissan in a meteorite that fell to earth. It is remarkably similar to a diamond in appearance and strength. Moissanite also has heightened brilliance, with a refractive index higher than that of a diamond. Couples have many beautiful alternatives to diamonds that they can explore when shopping for engagement rings. BR191576

Recently engaged couples may be excited to get a jump on wedding planning. Bridal shows can be a great way for couples to meet and familiarize themselves with local wedding professionals, all the while introducing themselves to the terminology of wedding planning. Though they’re a great source of information, contacts and samples, bridal shows also can be a bit overwhelming. Learning how to maximize time spent at shows can help couples plan their weddings as eﬃciently as possible. Q Start small. If the idea of large crowds is unappealing, attend the more intimate, boutique shows

When Only the Best Will Do

that are often held at local reception halls and restaurants instead of the larger installations at convention centers and hotels. Q Scout out vendors. Check the bridal show’s website for lists of exhibitors and see if your desired vendors are on the list. But even if they’re not, keep an open mind and use the show as a chance to compare oﬀerings. If an event map is available, marking oﬀ must-visit booths can help save time. Q Pre-register. Pre-registering for bridal events saves time at check-in, and doing so may make you eligible for discounted tickets. Q Come prepared. Chances are each vendor is going to ask couples for in-

formation so that they can follow up with a phone call or email with more detailed offerings and estimates. Couples attending the show can expedite the process by coming equipped with labels that feature their names, contact information and wedding date. They can then stick the labels on sign-in sheets or use them like business cards. Q Dress comfortably. Bridal expos involve a lot of walking and roaming around. Wear comfortable clothing and shoes. Consider a backpack or hands-free bag so you are not weighed down when collecting the swag and other handouts throughout the day.

Q Ask questions. When face-to-face with vendors, rely on their expertise but don’t hesitate to ask questions concerning themes, colors, recommendations for honeymoon locations, invitation paper suggestions, and much more. Q Stay for the fashion show. Many shows will oﬀer a runway experience to present the latest gown and tuxedo oﬀerings. This can be an entertaining way for couples to formulate their wedding styles. Wedding shows introduce couples to vendors and set them on the path to making decisions regarding the planning of their weddings. BR191580

Lilly Singh, host of “A Little Late With Lilly Singh” Singh announced the show on “The TonightShow With Jimmy Fallon” back in March, and she was eager to share her ideas for the new late-night program. “I’m so excited because I truly get to create a show from scratch,” Singh said. “I get to

make it inclusive, I get to create comedy segments and interview people and really create something that I believe in.” She went on to explain that “A Little Late With Lilly Singh” will be a little like her YouTube channel, IISuperwomanII, which has nearly 15 million subscribers. Featuring a mix of comedy segments, motivational messages and collaborations with some of her famous friends, her YouTube channel has taken the internet by storm, earning her numerous accolades, including Streamy Awards, two Teen Choice Awards and a People’s Choice Award. She also has a vlog channel, created in 2011, where she chronicles her daily activi-

ties. In 2017, Forbes ranked Singh 10th on the magazine’s list of the world’s highest-paid YouTubers and named her the top influencer in the entertainment category. For YouTube fans who may be concerned that she’ll nix her beloved channel now that she’s got a primo late-nightgig, fear not. In a YouTube video announcing “A Little Late,” Singh insisted: “I would not abandon my YouTube family.” The internet may have made her a star, but Singh is also an accomplished entertainer, having appeared on television and in movies, as well as in a number of music videos. She released a visual music piece on YouTube called “Voices” in

to break new ground in “A Little Late With Lilly Singh.” When her new late-nightshow premieres, she’ll be the first woman to host her own late-night TV show on one of America’s “Big 4” networks: NBC, ABC, Fox and CBS. She’s also the first openly bisexual woman of color to helm such a show in the U.S. “A Little Late’s” format may be different than other latenightshows, but that could be a good thing. While a lot of latenighttalk shows focus on current events and politics, Singh’s show is expected to be more personal, mining her own experiences for comedy, similar to the YouTube content that made her a star.

65 +,4(5+ Ferns and friends: Quirky comedy series ‘Between Two Ferns’ gets film treatment on Netflix By Jessica Gosse TV Media

WHATS NEW ON NETFLIX “Between Two Ferns: The Movie” (2019) Fans of the Funny or Die series “Between Two Ferns” will be excited to hear that Netflix has given the comedy series the movie treatment, and it premieres Friday, Sept. 20. The film is written by the show’s original creators, Zach Galifianakis (“Baskets”) and Scott Aukerman (“Comedy Bang! Bang!”), with Aukerman directing (as he did for many episodes of the series) and, of course, Galifianakis starring. For anyone not familiar, “Between Two Ferns” is a fictional talk show that features Galifianakis as he conducts extremely unprofessional and hilarious interviews with various celebrities. Guests range from stars like Bradley Cooper (“A Star is Born,” 2018) and Steve Carell (“The Office”) to political figures like former president Barack Obama and former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Galifianakis explained the film, saying, “We have several interviews. What we tried to do is build a storyline, not necessarily around the interviews, but around the cable ac-

cess station where we’ve been shooting all these years.” Galifianakis also declared that the new film will feature appearances by “celebrities you’ve heard of” — find out which celebrities he’s talking about when the film lands on Netflix. “Criminal” On Friday, Sept. 20, the internationalpolice interrogation drama “Criminal”is set to launch on Netflix. The series takes place across four countries — France, Spain, Germany and the U.K. — with three episodes set in each country. Creators George Kay (“Killing Eve”) and Jim Field Smith (“Epsiodes”) were involved in the creation of every episode, however each episode was produced in the language of the country it was set and was written and directed by local talent. “Criminal”looks at the intense dynamic between law officers and suspects, and follows the cat-and-mouse game that is the interrogation process. The series boasts an impressive cast, with David Tennant (“Doctor Who”) and Hayley Atwell (“Agent Carter”) starring in the U.K. episodes, and an equally impressive lineup for France, Spain and Germany. Fans of crime dramas won’t

want to miss this fascinating new series. “Disenchantment” Season 1, Part 2 This popular animated adult comedy series returns to Netflix on Friday, Sept. 20, for Part 2 of Season 1. Coming from the mind of creators Josh Weinstein (“Futurama”) and Matt Groening (“The Simpsons”), Part 1 brought us to the medieval world of Dreamland and introduced us to the rebellious, heavy-drinking Princess Bean (Abbi Jacobson, “Broad City”), her bright-eyed and naive companion, Elfo (Nat Faxon, “Blaze and the Monster Machines”), and her personal demon, Luci (Eric André, “Man Seeking Woman”). After running away from her own wedding, Princess Bean sets off on a series of misadventures with Elfo and Luci in an attempt to find her identity. Part 1 is already available on Netflix, so you have lots adventure to catch up on before the series picks back up after that epic midseason cliffhanger. “The Last Kids on Earth” Shows and movies where adults deal with the zombie apocalypse are extremely popular, but what would dealing

ship takes off from Earth, it collides with space junk and is thrown off course with no ability to steer the ship. Chaos slowly ensues as passengers realize they may not make it to Mars, and there’s no going back to Earth. With the ship drifting farther into the void of space and nearer to destruction, the passengers are left considering their place in the universe, and many devolve into bouts of madness and depression.

/633@>66+ 8 ( By Adam Thomlison TV Media

Q: Has “Deep State” been canceled? And is Mark Strong no longer involved with the series? A: “Deep State” has not been canceled, but Mark Strong has. It’s become something of a trend among prestige dramas to write out their seemingly unkillable main characters (see, for example, “True Detective,” “Fargo” and, of course, “Game of Thrones”). Nonetheless, it still came as a surprise to fans when [slight spoiler alert] Mark Strong’s character seemed to have been written off at the end of “Deep State” Season 1. Strong was unquestionably the star of the show, and so many thought that the writers would find a way to bring him back in Season 2. But that season came and went without him. His spot was filled by another critically beloved character actor, Walton Goggins, who played a very different character but brought the same gravitas and star power that Strong offered. The second season finished in the summer, but there’s been no word yet on a third. There’s every reason to be hopeful, though. The producers still have time to make the decision before they blow any kind of deadline, and in fact there aren’t any real deadlines, because the show’s British. “Deep State” airs on Epix in North America, but it’s actually produced in Britain, and their networks don’t follow the same strict seasonal schedule that North American ones do (though our premium cable and streaming services are increasingly taking up the European laissez-faire attitude). Q: I love Chicago P.D. and I’m looking at some of the earliest episodes. The music (by Atli Orvarsson) at the end of the shows is so powerful. Why did they stop using it on the new episodes?

Mark Strong in a scene from “Deep State” A: Award-winning Icelandic composer Atli Orvarsson’s music was all over “Chicago P.D.,” and indeed all over Dick Wolf’s other two “One Chicago” properties (“Chicago Med” and “Chicago Fire”). At least it was until recently. He’s still being used on “Med,” but he disappeared from the other two in early 2018. No one’s explicitly said why — composers don’t get the same attention that actors do — but it seems to have been part of a general refresh of the brand that happened last fall. Reviewing “Chicago P.D.’s” season premiere at the time, fan site OneChicagoCenter. com said that the episode, “continued the theme that ran through all of ‘One Chicago’ opening night — showing fans that things aren’t the same anymore in the city.” They were referring there to a number of major plot and character changes, but it’s possible that the producers wanted to more subtly signal those with a change to the music as well. Generally, when there’s a major change in music on a television show, that’s why. If producers need to signal a shift of some kind — either due to a major overhaul to fix an ailing show or due to a gentler brand refresh of a long-running hit — they often do so with changes to the background or theme music. If you’re worried about Orvarsson’s career, don’t be. He’s won numerous industry

awards for his work on film and TV and recently composed the score for a new film due out next year, “The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard” (a sequel to 2017’s “The Hitman’s Bodyguard,” which he also scored). Q: I love Michael Caine. Where did he get his start? A: It depends what you mean by “start,” as Michael Caine (whose name isn’t even really Michael Caine, but rather the more ponderous Maurice Micklewhite) took the long, hard road to acting success. His true start was on the stage, as is the case with so many British film greats, but his breakthrough to fame came in a quick succession of film hits in the mid-1960s. It started with 1964’s “Zulu,” a war film in which he had a supporting role as a coddled, upper-class army officer, playing against what we now know as his type — urban, workingclass men who succeed based on skill and brass. That type was defined in his very next film, “The Ipcress File,” his first big starring role. He played counterespionage agent Harry Palmer in the film, the first of many to feature the character. It was intended as the start of a sort of anti-James Bond spy franchise, pitting Caine’s unpolished workingman spy as a counterpoint to the posh superspy. Though that film did launch a series, Caine was quick to branch out to avoid being typecast (reportedly, he chose to have Palmer wear glasses so that he could leave them off in other films to distance himself from the character). He did it with a bang the next year, 1966, with “Alfie,” a romantic comedy in which he stars as a playboy coming to terms with the consequences of his ladies’ man life. That film was a critical and popular hit and cemented Caine’s position as a leading man with range.

Welcome to Camp Redwood: A new season of ‘American Horror Story’ premieres on FX By Breanna Henry TV Media

love “American Horror Story.” I’ve watched every episode of every season, and I am really, genuinely excited about the show’s upcoming ninth season, which is set to premiere on Wednesday, Sept. 18, on FX. If you’ve never seen “American Horror Story” (or “AHS”), nine seasons probably seems like a whole lot of show to catch up on, but I have good news: each season of “AHS” stands alone, so you don’t need to catch up at all. Like those that came before it, this new installment has a self-contained storyline, with new characters and completely different settings. Only small aspects of the overall series link each season together as part of one big, absolutely insane universe. While they’re all absolutely worth your time, you don’t have to catch up to dive into the new one. So far, the show’s fictional timeline spans from the beginning of the 14th century to the post-modern nuclear apocalypse; Season 9 falls within those dates, but focuses on one very specific year: 1984. This season’s cast will be decked out in neon spandex workout gear, perms and men’s crop tops as the series whisks us back in time to deliver some serious 1980s horror movie vibes. Thankfully, a brand new story doesn’t always mean a brand new cast. Series regular Emma Roberts (“Scream Queens”) made her “AHS” debut in “Coven,” the third season and the one with the strongest ties to all the other installments. She returned for Season 4’s “Freak Show” (hands down my favorite) and, after a break, came back for seasons 7 and 8. Leslie Grossman (“The Good Place”) had a small role in “Cult” (Season 7) and quickly became the character we love to hate with her more prominent role in last year’s “Apocalypse.” Roberts and Grossman are both back for Season 9 along with Billie Lourd (“Star Wars: The Last

Jedi” 2017) and Cody Fern (“House of Cards”). Show creator Ryan Murphy, who you may know as the creator of “Glee,” “Nip/ Tuck” and “Scream Queens,” is infamously secretive about “American Horror Story” information prior to each season premiere. The first trailer was released just a few weeks ago, and it confirmed many fan theories that “AHS: 1984” would involve a classic 1980s slasher movie plot. Everyone who has seen “Scream Queens” knows the slasher flick is something both Murphy and Roberts do exceptionally well — they add just the right amount blood, horror and, most importantly, camp. As of press time, we still don’t know the full cast for the new season, but we do know it takes place at a campground called Camp Redwood and features a villain named Mr. Jingles. Let’s not forget this is “AHS” we’re talking about, so the season is likely to take a lot of unexpected turns. Many fans, myself included, think this season might involve some Orwellian twists and turns that could link it with the draconian rules we saw in last season’s in “Apocalypse.” I won’t go on without addressing the elephant in the room: Sarah Paulson (“Glass,” 2019) will not have a starring role in “1984,” but she has said that she will make appearances this season — she wouldn’t want to ruin her perfect record. Paulson is the only cast member to appear in all nine seasons of the show. The only star who comes close to tying that record is Evan Peters (“Dark Phoenix,” 2019), but after appearing in eight straight seasons, Peters decided to sit this one out. Peters’ role in Season 5’s “Hotel” — the deranged, serial-killing 1930s thespian and resident hotel ghost, Mr. March — was one of favorite performances of the entire series, and it’ll be strange not to see him on screen this year. But hopefully Peters will be back in subsequent seasons, and in the meantime,

Emma Roberts stars in “American Horror Story: 1984” “1984” has a lot going for it, even without him. I cannot recommend “American Horror Story” enough. While being an incredible horror series with genuinely terrifying charac-

ters (Kathy Bates’ portrayals of Madame Delphine LaLaurie in “Coven” and the Butcher in “Roanoke” will give you chills for weeks), it is also absolutely hilarious. The show doesn’t take itself too seri-

ously, but the characters never seem to get the memo. If you like horror, camp, comedy, twists, turns and prefer to remain perched on the edge of your seat, “American Horror Story” is for you.

Tune in to FX on Wednesday, Sept. 18, for the premiere of “American Horror Story: 1984.” Whether you’re a longtime viewer or tuning in for the first time, you won’t be disappointed.

wo clubs that narrowly escaped relegation last season go head to head in Gameweek 6. Tune in Saturday, Sept. 21, as Brighton and Hove Albion take on Newcastle United at St. James’ Park in Newcastle upon Tyne. Catch live coverage of the action on NBC. A self-confessed “Geordie,” Steve Bruce realized a childhood dream this summer when he was appointed manager of his boyhood club, Newcastle United. He took over after Rafa Benítez stepped down as manager following a contentious season with the rest of the club’s management. Benítez was critical of management for its unwillingness to spend on proven talent during the transfer windows, talent that would help the club compete for a higher position in the league table. Newcastle lost club favorite Ayoze Pérez to Leicester City for a fee of £30 million, but ended up spending

£65 million in the process of rebuilding the squad. Newcastle United started their campaign with two losses — one thanks to Arsenal, and one handed down from newly promoted Norwich City. In the third week of the new season, Bruce’s side surprised the world by securing an away win over Tottenham Hotspur. Three thousand fans made the long trip to North London to witness new addition Joelinton score his first Premier League goal in the 1-0 victory at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The Brazilian striker became Newcastle United’s new record signing, costing the club £40 million. Once someone who had to sneak into St. James’ Park to watch the Geordies play, Bruce will have the best seat in the house on Saturday, Sept. 21, while earning a sweet salary when Newcastle United host Brighton and Hove Albion.
