MCC: No conflict of interest here Trustees maintain firm conducting expansion study is only a consultant By CHelSea mcdoUgall

cmcdougall@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – McHenry County College Trustees maintain there is no conflict of interest with the firm hired to conduct a feasibility study for its proposed expansion.

Critics of MCC’s $42 million plan for a health sciences facility, clinic and fitness center have blasted Power Wellness’ role in the feasibility study. The college in October hired Power Wellness to determine whether the expansion should move forward. The Addison-

based firm also is charged with exploring potential partners to fund it. Power Wellness was paid $50,000 to conduct the study. Because they have not been hired as a financial partner, there is no conflict, board members said. “Right now we haven’t hired

any partners,” MCC Board Chairwoman Mary Miller said Tuesday at a Committee of the Whole meeting. “We’ve hired a consultant.” Some trustees and college officials have not ruled out Power Wellness as a potential partner. Trustee Ron Parrish asked

Report: 1 in 3 in Ill. face poverty

Food taking bigger budget bite

State cuts may worsen problem By tammY WeBBer The Associated Press

CHICAGO – One-third of Illinois residents are living in or near poverty, more than during the depths of the Great Recession, according to a new report that suggests the trend is not slowing and that state budget cuts have exacerbated the problem. Almost 1.9 million Illinoisans, or 15 percent, live in poverty, up from 12 percent when the recession began in late 2007. An additional 2.2 million, or 18 percent, are close to the poverty level, compared with 16.2 percent in 2007, according to the report issued Wednesday by the Chicago-based Social IMPACT Research Center. “It really is kind of shocking that a full third of the state is struggling,” said Amy Terpstra, the center’s associate director. Poverty is defined as an annual income below $23,021 for a family of four. Almost half of those in poverty earn half that. Those considered low-income earn between 100 percent and 199 percent of poverty. The study is based on the U.S. Census Department’s 2011 American Community Survey. Terpstra said near-poor residents often hold lowwage jobs with too few hours and no health benefits, yet

jhuh@shawmedia.com Using traditional food preservation methods was a way of life in Bobette Von Bergen’s household. “My mother always froze and canned [produce], and I cook from scratch so I rarely bought anything,” she said. “It’s just so easy to do some of this if you’ve got freezer space and time. You could cut down on grocery bills.”

More planning may help buyers, pantries counteract higher prices Von Bergen’s Country Market in Hebron, which sells in-season produce, serves as a resource on food preservation methods. In recent years, beginning around the time when the recession hit, Von Bergen noticed more customers showing

consumers can expect to pay 3 percent to 4 percent more for groceries this year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has reported. The drought generally drove up feed prices, which in turn raised milk, eggs, beef, poultry and pork prices. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, beef prices as a whole could see the biggest jump, from 4 percent to 5 percent.

Can ads undo damage from bailout?

Wise decision, AIG. Sometimes salvaging one’s reputation is more important than trying to prove a point in court. In case you missed it, insurance giant American International Group Inc. decided last week not to sue the federal government over the $182 billion bailout it received. You might recall that AIG in 2008 became the poster child for all that was wrong with corporate America. The insurer had been making huge bets on mortgage investments that went south. The bailout came because regulators worried that the company’s failure would further hurt a financial system already teetering as Lehman Brothers collapsed. The government received a nearly 80 percent stake in the company as part of the bailout. The Treasury Department said

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Joan Oliver last month that it had sold all of its remaining shares in AIG, winding up with $22.7 billion more than what it put into the company. Now, of course, we could argue over whether the federal government should have been taking over companies in the first place. That is, after all, the basis of the lawsuit that was filed in November 2011 by Starr International Co. Inc., the investment firm of former AIG CEO Maurice Greenberg. It was filed on behalf of the firm and AIG shareholders, claiming that the terms of the bailout were onerous and did not properly compensate them. And it required the AIG board

to consider whether it would join in the lawsuit. Of course, the timing couldn’t have been worse. AIG has been running an ad campaign called “Thank You America.” One ad opens with the words “AIG, we said we were going to turn it around, and we did.” It touts the $144 million it has paid out in claims to the victims of the tornado in Joplin, Mo., and its current efforts to help the East Coast recover from Hurricane Sandy. “We’re leaner and focused on what we do best,” the ad continues. A restructuring has cut the company to half its former size. The Associated Press reports that AIG spun off Asian life insurer AIA Group in 2010, raising $20 billion. That money was used to pay the bailout debt. “We repaid every dollar that America lent us,” the ad continues.

8WATER COOLER Rhino photo advice results in grave wound

JOHANNESBURG – When do you not listen to the African wildlife expert? When he tells you to stand closer to the rhino. That suggestion by a South African game park owner resulted in serious injuries to a 24-year-old woman from Johannesburg. The Beeld newspaper reported Tuesday that Chantal Beyer said the game park owner snapped pictures and suggested that she “stand just a little bit closer” seconds before the attack. Photos show Beyer and her husband only feet away from two rhinos. The paper said that just after the photo was snapped, the rhino attacked, and its horn penetrated Beyers’ chest from behind, resulting in a collapsed lung and broken ribs, the paper said.

Heads at airport were research shipment By JASON KEYSER

The Associated Press CHICAGO – It sounded ghoulish enough: a shipment of 18 frozen human heads discovered and seized by customs officials during routine X-ray screening of cargo arriving at O’Hare International Airport in Chicago. Turns out the heads were used for medical research in Italy and were being returned for cremation in Illinois. The holdup was caused by a paperwork problem.

“Everything, plus a profit of more than $22 billion.” AIG even seems to acknowledge that the company’s survival was on the line. “When we make guarantees for people’s lifetimes, we have to act as a company that will make sure that we are here for their lifetimes,” it states. Gratitude and a little humble pie can go a long way. Too bad the talk of suing the American people took a little of the luster off what just might have been a public relations coup for the company. The question now is whether the board’s decision to take a pass on that lawsuit is enough to keep the good will flowing.

His association sends about 450 whole cadavers to medical schools each year and also ships individual body parts, including about a dozen shipments of heads annually. The heads are used for training in fields such as dentistry, ophthalmology and neurology, where they are

used for Alzheimer’s research. They also are used to train plastic surgeons and students learning to perform facial reconstructions on accident and trauma victims, Dudek said. Most cadavers are obtained through donation by people who designate a willingness to have their bodies benefit science upon their death, Dudek said. A much smaller proportion are the bodies of people whose families could not afford their burial and so agree to allow the state to release them for research.

With little information initially, news of the shipment’s discovery fueled headlines about where the shipment came from, where it was headed and why. On Tuesday, a cremation service arrived at the Medical Examiner’s Office with paperwork for the specimens. Once federal authorities confirm the paperwork, the heads will be turned over to the cremation service, Paleologos said.

Obama gun plans House OKs $50.5B in Sandy aid will face obstacles Local votes

By DaVID eSPO

The Associated Press

the aSSOCIateD PReSS

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama is launching the nation’s most sweeping effort to curb gun violence in almost two decades, urging a reluctant Congress to ban military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines like those used in last month’s massacre of 20 elementary school children in Newtown, Conn. The broad package Obama will announce today is expected to include more than a dozen steps the president can take through executive action. Those measures will provide a pathway for skirting opposing lawmakers, but they will be limited in scope, and in some cases, focused simply on enforcing existing laws. But Congress would have to approve the bans on assault weapons and ammunition magazines holding more than 10 bullets, along with a requirement for universal background checks on gun buyers. Some gun control advocates worry that opposition from Republicans and conservative Democrats, as well as the National Rifle Association, will be too great to overcome. “We’re not going to get an outright ban,” Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, D-N.Y., said of limits on assault weapons. Still, McCarthy, a leading voice

in Congress in favor of gun control, said she would keep pushing for a ban and hoped Obama would as well. White House officials, seeking to avoid setting the president up for failure, have emphasized that no single measure – even an assault weapons ban – would solve a scourge of gun violence across the country. But without such a ban, or other sweeping Congress-approved measures, it’s unclear whether executive actions alone can make any Barack noticeable difObama ference. “It is a simple fact that there are limits to what can be done within existing law,” White House spokesman Jay Carney said Tuesday. “Congress has to act on the kinds of measures we’ve already mentioned because the power to do that is reserved by Congress.” New York’s Assembly on Tuesday easily passed the toughest gun control law in the nation and the first since the Connecticut school shootings. The statewide measure includes a tougher assault weapons ban and provisions to try to keep guns out of the hands of mentally ill people who make threats.

Police suits near end the aSSOCIateD PReSS

CHICAGO – A Chicago City Council committee preliminarily approved settlements in two police misconduct cases Tuesday that would cost the city almost $33 million, including $22.5 million to a California woman that apparently would be the largest to a single such plaintiff in the city’s history. The full City Council is expected to sign off on the settlements Thursday. The bigger of the two would go to the family of Christina Eilman, who will require care for the rest of her life for severe brain injuries suffered in a 2006 fall from a 7th-floor window at a Chicago housing project where she had just been raped.

The second settlement would pay $10.25 million to Alton Logan, one victim of the city’s notorious police torture scandal involving officers under former Lt. John Burge. Logan spent 26 years in prison for a murder he didn’t commit, and his award would be the biggest handed out in any case to stem from the investigation into the Burge unit, which framed black murder suspects and tortured many into confessing. The aldermen voted unanimously to approve the settlements after Alderman Edward Burke said he was “embarrassed and ashamed” that the city had put Eilman’s family through a such a long legal fight, and another alderman suggested the city should have paid far more to Logan.

WASHINGTON – More than 10 weeks after superstorm Sandy brutalized parts of the heavily populated Northeast, the House approved $50.5 billion in emergency relief for the victims Tuesday night as Republican leaders struggled to close out an episode that exposed painful party divisions inside Congress and out. The vote was 241-180, and officials said the Senate was likely to accept the measure early next week and send it to President Barack Obama for his signature. Democrats supported the aid in large numbers, while majority Republicans opposed it by a lopsided margin. “We are not crying wolf here,” said Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., one of a group of Northeastern lawmakers from both parties who sought

The House approved the bill, H.R. 152, on a 241-180 vote. U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam, R-6th, and U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-14th, voted no.

Iran: Khamenei’s ban on nuclear weapons binding By AlI AKBAr dArEINI The Associated Press

TEHRAN, Iran – Iran sought Tuesday to spell out in its clearest terms yet that it is not seeking nuclear weapons, highlighting a religious decree issued by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei that bans nuclear weapons. The latest reference to Khamenei’s declaration is seen as a bid to close the door on debates that Iran may have carried out atomic bomb trigger tests as inspectors from the U.N. atomic watchdog were on their way to Tehran for a new round of discussions. Iran authorities have often cited Khamenei’s religious edict, made more than seven years ago, in attempts to counter Western suspicion that Iran could be moving toward nuclear arms. But Iranian leaders now appear increasingly desperate to reopen talks with world powers as a possible way to ease sanctions. Ministry spokesman

Ramin Mehmanparast touched on a cultural rift between the Islamic Republic and the West, saying the United States and its allies don’t understand the significance of the decree. “There is nothing higher than the exalted supreme leader’s fatwa to define the framework for our activities in the nuclear field,” he told a press conference. Mehmanparast could not be more definitive in dispelling suspicions that Iran may ultimately develop a nuclear weapon. “We are the first country to call for a Middle East free of nuclear weapons,” he said. “When the highest jurist and authority in the country’s leadership issues a fatwa, this will be binding for all of us to follow. So, this fatwa will be our top agenda.” Mehmanparast said Westerners “don’t have an accurate understanding of Islamic beliefs and fatwas issued by great scholars,” suggesting that the U.S. and its allies must take Khamenei’s edict

seriously. To highlight its seriousness, he said Iran is willing to “register the fatwa as an international document.” Although Iran views Khamenei’s 2005 fatwa as a binding declaration, the West and its allies have repeatedly accused Iran of using any tactic to prolong the standoff and possibly advance its nuclear capabilities. The perception gap also strikes at the role of the supreme leader himself. The most ardent followers consider the post as divinely imbued and answerable only to God. For Iran’s opponents, Khamenei is often seen as guiding a ruling system seeking to outwit the West and threaten Israel. They want Iran to stop enriching uranium to a level that could be turned relatively quickly into the fissile core of nuclear arms. Iran denies such aspirations, insisting it is enriching only to make reactor fuel and to make isotopes for medical purposes.

France triples troops in Mali The AssocIATEd PrEss

BAMAKO, Mali – After a punishing bombing campaign failed to halt the advance of alQaida-linked fighters, France pledged Tuesday to triple the size of its force in Mali, sending in hundreds more troops as it prepared for a land assault to dislodge the militants occupying the northern half of the country. The move reversed France’s earlier insistence on providing only aerial and logistical support for a military intervention led by African ground troops.

France plunged headfirst into the conflict in its former colony last week, bombarding the insurgents’ training camps, arms depots and safe houses in an effort to shatter the Islamist domination of a region many fear could become a launching pad for terrorist attacks on the West and a magnet for extremists from around the world. Despite five days of airstrikes the rebels have extended their reach, taking over a strategically important military camp in the central Malian town of Diabaly on Monday.

On Tuesday, France announced it was increasing the number of troops from 800 to 2,500. The offensive was to have been led by thousands of African troops pledged by Mali’s neighbors, but they have yet to arrive, making it increasingly apparent that France will be leading the attack rather than playing a supporting role. French President Francois Hollande told RFI radio early Tuesday that he believed France could oust the extremists in a week. By afternoon he had outlined a far longerterm commitment.

Police: Man says he had explosives in Wis. Capitol

MADISON, Wis. – A man was arrested Tuesday after allegedly threatening the Wisconsin Capitol on his Facebook page and then telling police he had a homemade bomb in his backpack when he entered the building just hours before the governor’s State of the State speech. Authorities had distributed the 20-year-old man’s photo to Capitol police after learning about the online threat, Gov. Scott Walker’s administration said in a statement. Police spotted him as he entered the Capitol, where he allegedly told officers he had a molotov cocktail in his backpack.

U.S. condemns 2010 comments from Morsi

WASHINGTON – The Obama administration on Tuesday gave a blistering review of remarks that Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi made almost three years ago about Jews and called for him to repudiate what it called unacceptable rhetoric. In blunt comments, the White House and State Department said Morsi’s statements were “deeply offensive” and ran counter to the goal of peace in the region. In a 2010 TV interview, Morsi had referred to Zionists as bloodsuckers who attack Palestinians, describing Zionists as “the descendants of apes and pigs.”

Chili is popular, thrifty item at CL pantry • FOOD

Continued from page A1 Dairy product prices are forecast to climb 3.5 percent to 4.5 percent; poultry and egg prices are projected to rise 3 percent to 4 percent; and pork prices are expected to rise 2.5 percent to 3.5 percent in 2013, the agency said. “In 2013, as a result of this drought, we are looking at above-normal food price inflation. ... Consumers are certainly going to feel it,” USDA economist Richard Volpe has said. The nonprofit Northern Illinois Food Bank in Geneva works with food manufacturers and retailers to collect food and funds for more than 600 agencies and groups, including the Crystal Lake Food Pantry and the FISH Food Pantry in McHenry. The food bank’s discounted prices generally are flat year after year for local pan-

cern at the committee’s next meeting in February. “That question isn’t done yet,” he said after Tuesday’s meeting. McHenry County College officials have said that the proposed expansion would go to a referendum only as a last resort. In addition to securing private sector partners, the project could be paid for by debt certificates and alternative revenue bonds, MCC officials said.

tries. “We’re able to buy 20 pounds of meat for $6.50 [from the food bank],” Crystal Lake Food Pantry board president Cate Williams said. The pantry also relies on the public for donations. In 2012, the pantry served 29,000 people, up from 28,100 the previous year. The rise of food costs could mean fewer donations as it affects donors, Williams said. “If they set aside $10 for groceries and see that prices went up for their items, they may not be able to donate as many cake mixes or boxes of macaroni and cheese,” she said. This comes at a time when pantries are increasingly depended on. “Our numbers continue to grow,” said Andrea Franzen, president of the FISH Food Pantry. Franzen also has noticed that the size of households

Currently, the McHenry pantry serves 675 families, between 2,200 to 2,500 people, a month. In general, saving money on food simply takes planning.

“Just a little better planning,” Williams said. “It doesn’t have to be very detailed. If you make meatloaf Monday night, what’s left over could be meatloaf sandwich for lunch on Wednesday.” At the Crystal Lake Food Pantry, canned chili is a popular and versatile food item for families. “I can’t keep enough of those on the shelves,” Williams said. “From one can of chili you can serve up to six servings. And it’s healthy because it has fiber.” Adding ground beef, chopped onions and pasta extends the meal supply, she said. FISH food pantry clients look to staples such as whole grain rice and beans, instead of meat, to make a variety of healthy meals that last for days, Franzen said.

don’t qualify for state or federal assistance. She said someone generally must make twice the poverty level to make ends meet without assistance, but in Illinois, that amount is higher because of the state’s cost of living. Other indicators of poverty – food stamp use and emergency food assistance – appear to support the survey. The number of food stamp recipients increased 19 percent during the recent recession, and has increased an additional 41 percent since it ended in June 2009. Households served by the state’s emergency food program spiked from 2.27 million in fiscal year 2009 to almost 3 million in 2012, although the amount of food distributed in those years was about the same, more than 23 million pounds, according to the Illinois Department of Human Services, which distributes federal surplus commodities to food banks. Although Illinois’ unemployment rate has fallen, it remains stubbornly high at 8.7 percent for November, and many of the new jobs don’t pay well, advocates said. At the same time, steep cuts in the state’s Medicaid program and programs to prevent homelessness and to treat mental illness are making the situation tougher for people already struggling to

provide basic necessities, Terpstra and other advocates say. People find themselves choosing between rent and food, between paying utilities and going to the doctor. Women, children and the disabled are among those more likely to live in poverty. But the new statistics belie stereotypes that those struggling are single parents or the unemployed, advocates say. “One of the big things is that people have jobs, but not jobs they can raise a family on,” said Pete Schaefer, president and CEO of the Northern Illinois Food Bank, a network of food pantries that serve 13 counties. Schaefer said some foodbank users are unemployed, but many are “making $9, $10 or $11 an hour.” “There is just no end in sight to the people hurting out there,” said Schaefer, adding that demand has more than doubled in the last four to five years, with food banks in his network serving a half-million individuals a year. Illinois ranks around the middle of states when it comes to poverty and near-poverty. But advocates say the numbers still are far too high, especially when lawmakers could take steps to ease the problem, including increasing the minimum wage from $8.25 an hour. They also advocate restoring homeless prevention funding, fully implementing Medicaid expansion and creating an automatic retirement account program.

Cancer cases deserve full public trial We might never know what caused a cluster of brain cancers in and around McCullom Lake. But the victims and their surviving family members deserve to present all of their evidence in a court of law. In 2010, a Pennsylvania judge prematurely dismissed the first of 33 lawsuits against a Ringwood chemical manufacturer. For the record The lawsuits claim that years The victims and surviving of air and groundfamily members of the water exposure to McCullom Lake cancer cases vinyl chloride and deserve their day in court. other volatile organic compounds caused the plaintiffs’ brain and pituitary tumors. The judge, Allan Tereshko, ruled that the epidemiologist hired by the plaintiff’s attorney misled the court during his testimony. Tereshko dismissed the case without allowing the remaining three witnesses to be heard. While that dismissal remains under appeal, Tereshko was reassigned from the civil division this month after being criticized by fellow judges for his handling of a separate case. According to a story in Sunday’s Northwest Herald by senior reporter Kevin Craver, the state appellate court that overturned Tereshko’s 2011 ruling in favor of a defendant insurance company chastised him for not disclosing his wife’s employment with the law firm representing it. Judges should recuse themselves in situations in which their impartiality could be reasonably questioned, according to judicial codes of conduct. While we agree that Tereshko should have recused himself in the case involving his wife’s law firm, we can’t speak to his motivations there. We do question his decision to dismiss the first McCullom Lake lawsuit without first hearing all of the evidence, however. The Northwest Herald has been investigating the McCullom Lake story since 2007. One thing we can say with certainty is that, no matter how you look at the evidence, a cluster of cancer cases exists in McCullom Lake and the Lakeland Park subdivision of McHenry, which sits directly south. By definition, a cluster exists when a greater-than-expected number of similar cancers turn up within a group of people within a specific geographic area over time. Of the 33 plaintiffs, 26 have suffered from some form of brain cancer. Of those 26, 10 are victims of glioblastoma multiforme, which affects only about three people in 100,000. To us, it’s clear that a cluster exists. What’s not clear is what caused the cancers. Each of the plaintiffs deserves a full trial on the merits of the case. That means they should be able to present all of their evidence in front of a jury of their peers. Anything short of that would be a travesty of justice.

Fracking probe vital Proponents of hydraulic fracturing say that as long as wells are drilled and encased properly at the wellhead, there is no danger of groundwater contamination. Yet as such drilling proliferates, citizens understandably worry about contaminants getting into wells or the heavy freshwater needs of “frackers” depleting local groundwater resources. The process generally involves injecting copious amounts of chemical-laden water to fracture deeply buried shale and then disposing of the millions of gallons of tainted wastewater in deep-injection wells. Frackers aren’t usually required to reveal the exact formulations of their chemicals in advance or to pre-test wells at a distance from the wellhead, inducing some communities to consider paying for expensive benchmark testing of groundwater themselves. One problem in resolving these concerns has been the dearth of credible, national studies. Fortunately, at congressional direction, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is in the early stages of a major, peer-reviewed investigation of fracking’s possible impact on drinking water resources. The EPA aims to release a draft report by the end of 2014. The EPA’s findings will be critical. Drillers are leasing hundreds of thousands of acres in Ohio, Pennsylvania and other states that sit above the oil-and-gas-rich Utica shale. Ohioans appreciate the money that the shale boom has brought and its potential to revive the state’s manufacturing economy, but they also need to know whether drilling is safe for the environment and whether it can be made safer still. The questions raised can be resolved only by a hard look in the real world. The (Cleveland, Ohio) Plain Dealer

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Standing up

To the Editor: Re: the story, “Algonquin arcade removes violent games.” My wife and I have a 5-year-old girl who is in kindergarten. The Newtown, Conn., shootings hit close to us, like it did the whole nation. I have no idea what to do about gun laws. I have no idea if violent TV or violent video games have made an impact on kids these days. Here is what I do know: These things are happening and something needs to change. I applaud these two business owners for standing up for what they believe in and not thinking that it is all about money. The comments on the article online are amazing to me. “Kids have played cops and robbers for years and it is the same thing as playing first-person shooter games.” Really? Kids running around with guns made out of paper tubes, or using their hands as guns, is the same thing as using a lifelike, heavy, plastic gun with a trigger that shoots at a screen, scoring points depending on where you hit them and having their bodies explode? I don’t know if this goes hand in hand, but I love that a business will take a look at something, think that it is wrong, and do something about it, knowing that business might go down. I want the owners to know that business might go down, from kids and families who like those type of games, but you gained three more customers with my wife, daughter and me. Thanks for standing up!

Community involvement

To the Editor: After more than 30 years of running Iron Mike’s Excavating and a lifetime of community involvement, I am announcing my Republican candidacy for Nunda Township highway commissioner. I’m excited to run for highway commissioner in order to help lower taxes. I have spent my life working hard with the people of this community and hope to represent them soon. I believe I can: • Bring fiscal responsibility to the highway department. • Eliminate unethical spending. • And work closely with all township staff. I am a husband and father of three, a fourth-generation Eagle Scout, owner of Iron Mike’s Excavating, youth athletics coach and donor. I also was heavily involved with Hurricane Katrina relief work, and am involved with my church.

Gun cult

To the Editor: For a week after the horror of Sandy Hook, the cowardly gun cult remained silent. Its spin masters would have us believe it was in respect for those killed. The truth is that it had pulled out one of its tentacles, put it up in the air to check the wind direction, and discovered that the public was fed up with guns. How should it address this monumental problem? A frantic week later, this is all it could come up with: Guns didn’t kill children at Sandy Hook. Because of a lack of armed guards and mental health money, because of violent video games and movies, a bad guy did. Besides, God is punishing us for eliminating prayer in schools, for abortion, for gay marriage and because we elected Barack Obama as president. If this cynical, straight-faced denial of the reality that there are too many easily obtainable high-capacity magazine, rapid-fire guns in our country isn’t pathetic enough, writers to this page have delusively asserted that guns are the last firewall separating a free people from a tyrannical government. Are we to believe that the ultimate protector of our freedoms is a bandoleered extremist in boots and camos, armed with a copy of the Constitution, the Bible and an AK-47, rampaging through our neighborhoods, a freelance Dr. Mengele, taking out those whom he perceives as bad guys? Who’s the tyrant? If I was the gun cult, I’d avoid any discussion of mental health. Don Metivier Woodstock

Imagine a president

To the Editor: Imagine re-electing a president of the United States who has demonstrated having a personal vendetta against his country. This is Barrack Obama. During his apology tour, he told the world, we are not a Christian nation.” He has lobbied for the rights of terrorists. This is the same president who can only refer to the murders at Fort Hood as being “violence in the workplace.” This explains his dislike for our Constitution and his support, for instance, for same-sex marriage. Remove “Almighty God” and His principles and everything becomes “the right thing to do.”

You deserve what your neighbor has even if you cannot afford it because “it’s the fair thing to do.” Reward everyone whether they worked for it or not.

His campaign signs read, “forward,” but his final plea was to get “revenge.” Imagine a president of the Untied Sates determined to bury Americans in debt. There has been no urgency to reduce our huge national debt. Imagine our president outwardly pulling for our enemies and ignoring calls for protection from American citizens. There has been no urgency to get to the bottom of the killings in Libya. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and U.S Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice provided us with false information.

Daisy nomination

To the Editor: Kudos to the Daisy Committee for putting together a program rewarding nurses who never seem to get the recognition they deserve. I could not single out just one nurse to nominate, so I am nominating the team of nurses in radiation and chemotherapy infusion at the Sage Center in McHenry. Each and every one of them are deserving of their own individual sculpture award because each in their own way have contributed so much to the lives that count on them every day to pull them through their battle with cancer. Since “A Healer’s Touch” sculpture cannot be presented to each individual nurse, I am proposing that one sculpture be presented to the nurses in radiation and chemo infusion as a team and a commendation certificate be presented to each one individually. I received treatment at the Sage Center in McHenry throughout 2012 and know firsthand how the nurses there go above and beyond.

Climate change real

To the Editor: In “Nothing to worry about today” (Jan. 6, PlanIt Style), the writer seems to suggest there is plenty of time to deal with climate change. We are told not to be fooled by the gloom-and-doom stories in the media. Would that the media accepted its obligation to accurately inform the public on this issue. 2012 was the year that climate change made an undeniable mark on the planet with record-breaking heat waves, droughts, wildfires and extreme storms. Arctic ice melted at an unprecedented rate, and additional scientific studies were released indicating that climate change is occurring at a rate faster than expected. Unfortunately, the major media largely ignored the opportunity to connect climate change with these extreme weather phenomena. When the media did cover the topic, they all too often relied on the comments of politicians more than on scientific testimony, and news shows failed most of the time to inform the public that climate science organizations agree that climate change is happening and is being driven mainly by the consumption of fossil fuels. The reality is that we don’t have 400 or even 50 years to respond intelligently to the effects of climate change. We are witnessing today these extreme weather events, and the experts tell us it will only get much worse. We may wish there was nothing to worry about today, but if we don’t act very quickly, it may be too late to act at all. Rick Johnson Wonder Lake

Village picks new manager Algonquin will pay Lockport administrator $165,000 By JosepH Bustos

jbustos@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – After a search that took several months, the Village Board on Tuesday hired Timothy Schloneger, the current Lockport city administrator, to be the next village manager. He has been in Lockport for six years. Schloneger replaces Bill Ganek, who is retiring after

being at the helm of the village since 1992. His first day on the job is scheduled for Feb. 18. He will earn $165,000 a year. “I am imTimothy pressed by the Schloneger standard of excellence set by the board members and staff,” Schloneger said in a news re-

lease. “I am looking forward to becoming part of such an energetic, proactive and visionary organization. It is clear that those serving in Algonquin care about the community and work well together.” Schloneger was not present at Tuesday’s board meeting, where his hiring was announced. Ganek, who earned $200,000 a year, has yet to de-

termine his last day. He will stay on the job to help with the transition. Village President John Schmitt said Schloneger is well-rounded and has experience with transportation projects, economic development and downtown revitalization, “which fit the vision of what the Village Board was looking for in the next village manager.” Schmitt said Schloneger

has good attention to detail, understands how to work within the budgetary process, is responsive to trustee and resident requests, and is good in dealing with staff members. Schloneger also was detailed-oriented in his answers during his interviews, Schmitt said. He has developed financing for Lockport’s capital

rememBer: BriNg Bags to store

A reminder to BYOB: Bring your own bags to the store, and not just the grocery store. If 25 percent of U.S. families used 10 fewer plastic bags a month, the nation would save more than 2.5 billion bags a year. The message is clear, using a reusable bag just 10 times a month would make a big difference. Making it a habit would make a hug difference. This message can be found on the Facebook page of Activist Abby. She made headlines with her efforts to ban plastic bags in her hometown of Grayslake. The Environmental Defenders of McHenry County have invited Abby to speak at their annual meeting. For information, visit www.mcdef.org.

Lawsuit dismissed; Bianchi to refile By saraH sutscHek

ssutschek@shawmedia.com An attorney for McHenry County State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi said he plans to refile a federal lawsuit against the special prosecutors who put Bianchi on trial twice. On Friday, a judge dismissed the lawsuit, but gave Bianchi 28 days to file it again.

“Suing prosecutors who have absolute immunity for so much of what they do is a very difficult thing,” said Bianchi’s attorney, Terry Ekl. But Ekl said he was confident that the lawsuit will survive. About a year ago, Bianchi filed the complaint against Thomas McQueen and the other special prosecutor appointed to investigate him,

Henry Tonigan, saying that they were motivated by politics and money. Tonigan since has settled, agreeing to pay $157,500 but not admitting any fault. McQueen and his attorney, Matthew Henderson, declined to comment Tuesday. U.S. District Judge Robert M. Dow Jr. dismissed the lawsuit with reasons including immunity for prosecutors.

There is a downside to that immunity in that “genuinely wronged” defendants have no redress, Dow said, but putting limitations on it would prevent prosecutors from doing their jobs. Dow also said that the complaint does not allege that McQueen was retaliating against Bianchi.

D-12 lunch rates tick up as Woodstock gears up registration fees stay level for Groundhog Day By EMILY K. COLEMAN

ecoleman@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – Lunch rates will be the only fee increased at Johnsburg’s schools. The District 12 school board voted to increase the cost of student lunches by 10 cents and adult lunches by 30 cents at its meeting last week. The rest of the district’s fees, including for registration, sports, activities and parking, will stay the same. School board members and administrators decided to freeze fees because residents are having a “difficult time with the economy and we want to try to help our families any way we can,” Superintendent Dan Johnson said. That’s why fees have, for

the most part, been kept the same for the past several years. Although there were some exceptions: The driver’s education fee was dramatically increased last year to $125 from $50 to bring it more in line with the county average, and the technology fee was raised by $3 for the 2009-10 school year. This year’s exception, school lunches, brings the district up to the baseline set in the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. The federal law, which directed the U.S. Department of Agriculture to overhaul its nutrition guidelines for schools, also increased its reimbursement rates to district. Districts must charge more than the reimbursement rate. Johnson wasn’t sure

where the district was compared with how much other districts were charging. “Because we haven’t looked at it, we haven’t done a comprehensive study,” he said. Cary School District 26 also kept its registration fees level when it voted in December, except for a $5 increase for sixthgraders to bring it in line with the seventh- and eighth-grade registration rates. District 26 will charge $218 for those grades for the 2013-14 school year in comparison with District 12, which charges $143 for sixthgraders and $117 for seventhand eight-graders. District 300 charges $125 for middle school students. Its board also decided to keep its registration fees level.

Headlined by Woodstock Willie’s emergence from his winter slumber – at 7 a.m. Feb.

The Hackmatack National Wildlife Refuge is official. The national wildlife refuge, the first and only in northern Illinois, currently consists of 72 acres. The land was bought by Openlands, a regional conservation nonprofit, which then sold it to the Illinois Department of Natural Resources in December. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service accepted a 12-acre easement, giving it the ability

in southeastern Wisconsin. One of the next steps will be acquiring additional property. The government can do that one of two ways: buy or lease it outright from willing property owners or buy easements that give it partial rights over the property. It’s up to the property owners to decide whether they want to participate. The establishment doesn’t mean the refuge is open to the public, though, Beyer-Clow said. The 72 acres must be re-

The process is moving relatively quickly, Openlands Policy Director Lenore BeyerClow said. “I think it’s faster partially because there’s momentum from the local groups that have been working on it and because there’s support in the community,” she said.

according to the Algonquin news release. Schloneger has worked in Lemont and Romeoville and is a member of the International City/County Management Association and the Illinois City/County Management Association. Ganek has been village manager since 1992, and the Village Board hoped to find

someone who will have the same longevity. “That’s the reason we deliberated so long because we [were] looking for somebody we felt that would fit this village and where are our goals are, and be here for 20 years,” Schmitt said. In July, the village hired VoorheesAssociatesfor$12,000 to help conduct the search.

About 75 people applied for the job. The board interviewed seven or eight candidates, Schmitt said. “You’ve got a stable environment, with a good fiscal climate, a stable board, a constituency that appreciates the work, and a really welldeveloped and knowledgeable staff,” Schmitt said.

Judge: Complaint didn’t show defendants had ‘political ax to grind’ • BIANCHI

Continued from page B1 Instead, according to Dow, it says that Bianchi’s Republican opponents wanted to unseat him, but not why McQueen, who was appointed by a judge, is one of those opponents. “In fact, the complaint is devoid of any allegation that either Tonigan or McQueen (or any other defendant) even

knew any of the plaintiffs prior to their appointment by Judge Graham, much less had any political ax to grind,” Dow said. In 2009, McHenry County Judge Gordon Graham appointed Tonigan and McQueen to investigate claims by Bianchi’s former secretary that he had her do campaign work for him on taxpayer time. A special grand jury handed up 21 corruption counts

against Bianchi, and six against his secretary, Joyce Synek. Graham authorized Tonigan and McQueen to expand their investigation, which resulted in three more charges against Bianchi and one each against state’s attorney investigators Ron Salgado and Michael McCleary. Over the course of two bench trials, a Winnebago County judge acquitted Bianchi and Synek of all charges

DHS offers several services aimed at meeting basic needs, improving health and helping individuals become self-sufficient. DCFS provides child protection by investigating cases of child abuse and neglect, inspecting day care centers and group homes, and working to get children out of foster care and to homes with adopted parents. The state went through a bidding process before settling on DCFS’s current location for the consolidation. In September, Woodstock City Council members approved a request to lease onstreet parking for use by the agencies. The council will lease eight parking spots for a total of $4,000 a year.

Each department will have less room to work with, but neither plans to curb services or lay off employees, officials said. The building will have a total of 18,600 square feet when the project concludes. “With all of the technology that we have today, there’s less and less of a need for someone to actually come into an office,” DHS spokeswoman Januari Smith Trader said.

In addition to his federal lawsuit, Bianchi also has filed court documents asking that McQueen be held in contempt of court.

Give your family what they’re still hoping for... And that is to have you involved in their lives again. As our hearing needs change we sometimes don’t hear like we used to. It’s frustrating asking people to repeat themselves or misunderstanding them. So, unfortunately, many people just stop getting together and spend more time alone. If you, too, are spending more time alone and less time with family and friends then you’ll be happy to know there is an easy solution. Hearing instruments can quickly and easily end the mumbling and bring the clarity to conversations that you once enjoyed. Even better, new Starkey® hearing instruments are so discreet that most people won’t know you’re wearing them. But they sure will be happy to have the old you back.

So, call today for your appointment to find the solution that’s right for you!

When it rains or snows, most of that water seeps into the ground. But what if the ground is covered with a paved surface like a sidewalk or parking lot? In that case, the water flows into gutters or storm drains.

Water picks up pollutants as it runs through city streets, gutters and storm drains. These pollutants can make water in our creeks unsafe for humans, plants and animals. This pollution is called non-point source pollution.

Jeff Schinkel, Graphics

A. Pet waste on streets and sidewalks can end up in storm drains. Gross! B. Soapy water from car washing travels to storm drains.

1. Purchase household detergents low in phosphorous. Reduce run-off by washing your car on a lawn or other permeable (able to absorb liquids) surface.

D. When it rains, oil and gas that has dripped from cars washes into storm drains. E. Paint enters drains when brushes are cleaned outside.

4. Keep a drip pan under parked cars and dispose of used motor oil at an official recycling center. 5. Apply lawn and garden chemicals sparingly and according to directions. 6. Brushes and painting equipment soiled with water-based paint may be rinsed in a sink.

ANSWERS: A-2, B-1, C-5, D-4, E-6, F-3

Rain brings lots of debris into storm drains. Students explain how they will keep rivers and creeks clean. I can do many things to help keep the rivers and creeks clean. First of all, I will put garbage in the garbage can and not in the river. Next, I will not put old toys in the river. Then I will recycle old bags and other things. Lastly, I will help clean the rivers and creeks. Jesus, 5th grade I would start by not throwing trash, old toys and any kind of oil in the river.

Jenny, 4th grade

Here is something you could do to help. First, don’t litter because the wind can put trash in the rivers and creeks. Next, don’t throw your old tires or broken furniture into rivers. Don’t throw plastic or glass or cans. All those items can hurt people and creatures that swim in the rivers and creeks. Lastly, I will help keep rivers and creeks clean but if I see somebody throwing any items that are bad, I will say, “Give it to me.I will throw it away properly if you don’t want to.” Izabella, 3rd grade We can do many things to help keep rivers and creeks clean. First, you could recycle and not litter. Next, do not use rivers and creeks as an oil-spill zone. In addition, don’t throw beer cans or any kinds of bottles or anything except rocks in our rivers. Never, ever, throw anything in our rivers and creeks. That’s why we have trash cans! Brian, 4th grade

I would put up a poster in my school asking for kids to volunteer to help clean up the creeks. We would pick one day and wear old clothes and gloves and boots. With help from our parents, we could drag old trash out of the creeks and then get our parents to take it to the dump or get rid of it the proper way.I want to help keep our rivers and creeks clean. Jocelyn, 5th grade What would you do if the storm drains were clogged? I would start by making sure no leaves are close to it. Also that no car oil gets in it. I would try to make the other people in the neighborhood try to keep things out of the storm drain by trying to enforce littering ﬁnes and setting up cameras. When you get people to help it might seem like nothing but it could change the fate for some lakes. Julius, 5th grade

Please include your school and grade.

To keep our rivers and creeks clear of summer debris, we need to invent a strainer device that will hold back any debris from getting into our drains and water. As the leaves fall or get blown down, the strainer-type wire placed over the drains will prevent blockages from happening. Also, putting rocks over the drains and around the edges of creeks and rivers will also reduce debris from getting into the water. Keeping storm drains, rivers and creeks clean from debris helps prevent blockage from happening. Donny, 4th grade I would tell people that the creek is where a lot of animals are and they depend on the water. They might think the trash is food and eat it. If an animal eats plastic or other trash, they would die. So, if someone is leaving trash on the ground, tell them to pick it up because we don’t want any animals to die. Tania, 3rd grade

Leddy offered an example of a minor-league game day. “Say we were going to Peoria,” Leddy said. “That’s a 2½-hour bus ride.

Going on to be the best cyclist ever was the gravy. Armstrong can always celebrate his victory over his disease. But I am unfazed that the rest was too good to be true.

We don’t get angry anymore, because we don’t believe. Rarely, we respond. Kudos to the Baseball Writers’ Association of America for the Hall of Fame voting this year. As Richmond-Burton football coach and athletic director Pat Elder noted, we are numb. That could make us fail to see the teachable moments. “I think the more it happens, the more it becomes a reality,” he said. “It’s sad to see anyone who has had heroic moments in a sport have them tarnished. But it all goes back to [the question of] at what cost? Nothing is that important.” Cheating isn’t OK, at least that’s what all Illinois high school coaches are supposed to teach their athletes. They back it up by making any student, in any IHSA-sponsored or sanctioned athletic event, potentially subject to substance testing. They do it to tell students that it’s wrong. Hopefully, they continue to believe it is. Cary-Grove volleyball coach Patty Langanis hopes Armstrong’s admission prompts the cycling world to revisit its own policies and systems. Langanis’s son, Cooper, a freshman at C-G, aspires to be an elite cyclist and triathlete. She said she would feel more comfortable with him pursuing that dream if the sport implemented sweeping changes. Langanis also was inspired by Armstrong. She gave a copy of his book, “It’s not about the bike: My journey back to life,” to late Crystal Lake Central volleyball coach and athletic director Doug Blundy shortly after his cancer diagnosis in 2006.

joestevenson@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Jacobs forward Will Schwerdtmann desperately wanted to take a 3-point shot as the seconds ticked down in the fourth quarter with his team trailing Dundee-Crown by three. But it just was not happening. Schwerdtmann found himself attracting a little too much attention from D-C’s defenders, but he found the next-best thing, forward Nick Ledinsky waving near the left corner. “I was about to take it, but I saw Nick waving,” Schwerdtmann said. “And I trusted him. Everybody on this team can pull it from deep.” Ledinsky momentarily bobbled the pass, but then stepped behind the 3-point line and stuck a line drive fadeaway shot as time expired to send the game into overtime. Eight minutes later, the Golden Eagles had earned an uplifting 76-66 double-overtime victory against their archrivals in a Fox Valley Conference Valley Division boys basketball game Tuesday at the Eagles’ Nest. “On the bobble, I got a second to look at the clock and I knew I had a little time,” said Ledinsky, who hit his last four shots, three of which were 3s. “In the second overtime, anything I tossed up there was going in. This game really showed what we’re about.”

Hawks hope Rockford stints pay dividends Brandon Bollig. Skilled forward prospects Brandon Saad and Brandon Pirri were part of the contingent, as was young defenseman Ryan Stanton. Instead of boarding charter flights to big-league cities such as Los Angeles and Vancouver, the group traveled by bus to take on AHL opponents such as the Grand Rapids Griffins and the Lake Erie Monsters. Surely, they were jealous of teammates in Sweden and Austria and elsewhere. “No,” said Bollig, a happy-golucky enforcer who collected 157 penalty minutes in 35 games with the IceHogs. “I had no complaints playing in Rockford. I loved it, actually.” Loved it? Really? Maybe Leddy would rip on Rockford after playing 128 games in the NHL.

JACoBS 76, DuNDee-CrowN 66 (2oT)

CHICAGO – Several hours after what turned out to be his final game with the Rockford IceHogs, Nick Leddy woke up to go to the bathroom. Leddy’s phone was filled with overnight text messages: The NHL lockout had ended. Despite returning to bed, the typically low-key Leddy couldn’t get back to sleep. “My mind started going,” Leddy said with a smile Monday. Not only was Leddy about to return to the Blackhawks as an up-and-coming defenseman, he was about to say goodbye (again) to the minor leagues. Think of them as The Rockford Eight. As other Hawks players picked up paychecks in Europe or trained near their homes, Leddy and more than a half-dozen of his teammates spent the bulk of the 113-day lockout assigned to the Blackhawks’ minorleague affiliate in the American Hockey League. Besides Leddy, the group included young Hawks players Andrew Shaw, Jimmy Hayes, Marcus Kruger and

Lockout made competition in AHL tougher • MUSICK Continued from page C1

“Obviously, you’ve got to adapt. That was one of the bigger changes for me.” During his travels, Leddy came to appreciate the Illinois landscape. “Yeah, definitely,” Leddy said with a laugh. “It’s flat.” The same cannot be said for the career trajectories of

the Rockford crew. One of the top prospects is Saad, who tallied 20 points in 31 games with the IceHogs. Before this winter, Saad had skipped from the Ontario Hockey League to the NHL. The 20-year-old said he was impressed with his first taste of the AHL. “It’s good competition, for sure,” Saad said. “And with the lockout, there were even better players in the league. It

was tough. It was good for my game.” Now, Saad and the rest of the group hope to carry their momentum into the Hawks’ regular-season opener Saturday against the Los Angeles Kings. The Hawks still must determine their final roster, and a good chance exists that at least a couple of players will return to Rockford for more seasoning.

Either way, they insist that they’re better for the experience. Perhaps a long winter in Rockford will give them a running start to the NHL season. “I would hope so,” Bollig said. “Hopefully, we might have an extra jump and have that extra spark going for us. We’ll see what happens.” • Write to Northwest Herald sports writer Tom Musick at tmusick@shawmedia.com.

Serena hurts ankle, still wins, 6-0, 6-0 By JOHN PYE

The Associated Press MELBOURNE, Australia – Flat on her back, her sore right ankle raised and her hands covering her face, Serena Williams tried to block out thoughts that her bid for a third straight Grand Slam title might be ruined. After a dominating run the last six months, Williams was a big favorite to win the Australian Open. Suddenly, though, there seemed a way for her to be gone in the first round. “I almost panicked, and I thought, ‘I can’t do that,’” she said. “I just have to really remain calm and think things through.” The stats showed this was nothing more than a stroll – a 6-0, 6-0 wipeout in 54 minutes of No. 110-ranked Edina Gallovits-Hall at Melbourne Park on Tuesday. Williams conceded only six points in the second set. But this match took significantly longer to complete given the medical timeouts. And while the score may have been painful to her opponent, there was plenty of

pain to go around. The first set was 4-0 after 19 minutes at Hisense Arena when her tumble near the baseline diverted attention on Day Two from center court, where a day session featuring Roger Federer, Andy Murray and women’s champion Victoria Azarenka was under way. After some deep breaths, the 31-year-old Willlams pulled herself together, got to her hands and knees for a few minutes and gradually to her feet. Her already heavily taped ankle was assessed and retaped. She went back on court and won the next four points to get herself to another changeover, and more attention from the doctor. She went back and held another service game to clinch the set, giving her time for more treatment. “A very similar thing happened to me last year, almost on the same side, the same shot,” Williams said, referring to a fall that forced her to pull out of the Brisbane International last year and contributed to her fourth-round exit at the Australian Open.

GIRlS BASkETBAll: JACOBS 43, DUNDEE-CROWN 35

Jacobs stops D-C again for 2nd win of season By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com

ALGONQUIN – Holding a lead for an opponent to challenge in the fourth quarter is not something with which Jacobs’ girls basketball team is accustomed. Yet facing that situation Tuesday night at the Eagles’ Nest against Dundee-Crown, Jacobs passed the test without much trouble. D-C cut Jacobs’ lead to one late

in the third quarter, but the Golden Eagles answered with a 10-point run and picked up their second win of the season, 43-35, in a Fox Valley Conference Valley Division game of District 300 rivals. The game was played before the boys varsity game, so the girls finished with a crowd larger than normal. “It was an intense atmosphere and we’re going up against girls we know,” Jacobs guard Payton Berg said. “Our hard work is paying off.

This definitely boosts our confidence as we head into the second round of division games.” Sophomore Lauren Van Vlierbergen hit a 3-pointer to close the third quarter with a 27-23 lead. Van Vlierbergen made two free throws to open the fourth, then Berg hit a short jumper and nailed a 3 for a 34-23 lead. “We worked things out and calmed down [after leading 24-23],” Berg said. “I felt really good and was confident to take that 3.”

Jacobs (2-20 overall, 2-5 FVC Valley) has both its win against D-C. Eagles coach Joe Benoit thought the threequarter court pressure that helped produce 25 D-C turnovers was crucial. “Our pressure defense really got it done for us,” he said. “But give credit to Crown, they didn’t go away. They kept coming.” Van Vlierbergen added 10 points for the Eagles, including the big 3 after D-C freshman Melissa Barker hit a 3 to make it 24-23.

“We just really wanted it,” said Jacobs’ Tori Tamburrino, who scored eight points. “This feels really good because we’ve worked hard in practice.” D-C (2-13, 0-6) got eight points from Jillian Weichmann and seven from Emilie Michalski. “We play with a lot of effort, we just need to play a little smarter sometimes,” Chargers coach Michelle Russell said. “We have a lot of young girls and it was an intense game, they did a good job.”

Trojans focused in victory

ADAM FREIMUND Harvard, jr. Freimund helped the Hornets (19-3) to a 3-0 record at Winnebago on Saturday with three wins at 285 pounds against Stillman Valley, Winnebago and Johnsburg. Against Johnsburg, Freimund (31-4) got his second win of the year against Brandon Boyle, who is ranked No. 5 in Class 2A by Illinoismatmen.com. Both matches have been close with Freimund, ranked No. 4 in 1A, defeating Boyle, 1-0 at Winnebago. At the Sciacca/ Holtfreter Tournament in December, Freimund got an escape in an ultimate tiebreaker to win, 3-2.

CARY – As he spoke with his players before their tipoff against Huntley on Saturday, Cary-Grove girls basketball coach Rod Saffert sensed there was something different. By the time the game was over, Saffert knew. He never had seen the Trojans as focused as they’d been en route to Saturday’s victory, which moved C-G into a tie for first place in the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division. Retaining that tunnel vision could prove the difference between staying there to contend for a division title and slumping three days later. Tuesday came, and that determination followed. What could have been a letdown against Prairie Ridge proved to be encouraging, and after the Trojans’ 46-28 victory against the Wolves, Saffert realized his players understood the importance of the big-game attitude. “For whatever reason, they put everything out of their minds for that [Huntley] game,” Saffert said. “I told them that I know it’s tough, but they have to try to do that for every game now that we have a shot and are back in it.” Clawing back into position to fight for a division title was uncomfortable, senior guard Joslyn Nicholson said. Saffert didn’t necessarily have to say much to his players to impress on them the importance of remaining vigilant for the remainder of the season. Nothing felt better than Saturday’s win, so the Nicholson said they’ll do anything to replicate it. “We decided that the way we played against Huntley was going to carry over into every other game because it really was that important to us,” she said. “The way we played that game is what will help us succeed.” Knocking out a first half like Tuesday’s can’t hurt, either. The Trojans (13-6 overall, 6-1 FVC Valley) picked apart Prairie Ridge’s zone for five 3-pointers before halftime, including two from senior guard Kylie Smith (nine points). Taking advantage of the Wolves’ shooting woes and four straight turnovers, C-G led 10-2 at the end of the first quarter and 23-2 with 1:38 left in the first half. Prairie Ridge senior forward Marissa Gerstbrein (game-high 14 points) broke the Wolves’ long scoring drought with a putback at the 1-minute mark in the second quarter, and seniors Robin Manarik and Kelsey Bear each scored to make it 23-8 at halftime. While the Trojans rolled in the second half, the Wolves (13-7, 3-4) continued to struggle with shots. Prairie Ridge finished the game 11 for 46 (24 percent) from the field while C-G went 19 for 39 (49 percent). “[The Trojans] play phenomenal, big-time defense and they know what they’re doing,” Prairie Ridge coach Rob Baker said. “We need to do a better job of moving, reacting and using our basketball skills when we play them. “We’re too worried about running an offense. We need to cut, we need to make shots, we need to drive. They’re at the top of the conference for a reason; they’re a great team. We have to improve so hopefully by the time we get to regionals we can compete against them.”

Jacobs (8-7 overall, 3-1 FVC Valley) led most of the first overtime, but D-C’s Brandon Rodriguez drove for a scooping layup with 2.5 seconds remaining to force a second extra period. Jacobs grabbed control immediately in the second overtime by forcing two quick turnovers and with Ledinsky hitting two 3s. “We said we were going to end it right now,” Ledinsky

said. D-C (11-4, 2-1) had taken a 58-55 lead with 36 seconds remaining in a fourth quarter where neither team held more than a three-point advantage. The Chargers defended Jacobs well in the final seconds before Ledinsky got off his buzzer-beater. “[Ledinsky] does that all the time in practice, holding the ball until the last second and stepping back,” Jacobs coach Jim Hinkle said. “We wanted to go either way [Le-

dinsky or Schwerdtmann] to get an open look. But it wasn’t so open.” For a few seconds it looked like the Eagles might not get a shot off at all. “Our defense was pretty solid,” Chargers coach Lance Huber said. “[Ledinsky] made a good shot. It’s tough to overcome that. They made shots, that’s the name of the game.” Jacobs hit 11 3s for the game. Schwerdtmann hit 10 of 21 field goals and scored a game-high 25 points, Ledin-

sky hit 6 of 9 and scored 20. Both players hit five 3s. “It feels good, especially against them,” Schwerdtmann said. “We all know each other and they’re our friends off the court, but out here we hate them.” Rodriguez and Dylan Kissack scored 16 apiece to lead D-C. T.J. Beasley added 15. “Our kids showed a lot of resolve to come back after we lost the lead in the fourth quarter,” Hinkle said. “We’re really playing well right now.”

Warrior champions: After taking third at Prospect and fourth at Sycamore in tournaments this season, McHenry came away with a team championship Saturday at Batavia. The Warriors won four individual titles and placed 13 wrestlers in the top eight. Winning for McHenry were Mike Sikula at 120 pounds, Wade Lardy (145), Cam Pait (160) and Luis Hernandez (220). Lardy also was named the tournament’s outstanding wrestler and picks up his second championship in as many weeks. He won at Sycamore on Jan. 5. It was also Pait’s second title after winning at Prospect on Dec. 8. Sikula and Hernandez won their first tournaments of the season. Sikula placed second at Prospect and Sycamore and Hernandez was third at Sycamore. FVC: With the Fox Valley Conference Meet less than two weeks away, the FVC division races will wrap up Thursday and Friday. The match with the most significance will be McHenry at Huntley on Thursday. If the Red Raiders (4-1) can hand the Warriors (5-0) their first loss and Cary-Grove defeats Prairie Ridge, it would put three teams with one loss. The tiebreaker would go to Huntley with the headto-head win. In the Fox Division, Crystal Lake Central (5-0) visits Hampshire on Thursday to try and cap a perfect division record. Even if the Tigers lose, they will win the title with a win against second-place Grayslake North (4-1).

Bleak prospects

Likely done in N.Y., Tebow’s future uncertain by DeNNIs WasZak Jr.

The Associated Press

EW YORK – From nearly unstoppable to nearly invisible. Tim Tebow was two wins from the Super Bowl a year ago. Now, he’s pretty much a player without a team – likely to be released by the New York Jets after one frustrating season and his hometown team in Jacksonville, Fla., already pulling in the welcome mat. Even Tebow doesn’t how this will unfold. A backup role on another NFL team? A position change? The Canadian Football League? “I don’t know what my future holds, but I know who holds my future,” the devout Christian said in a recent interview with Fox Business Network, his only public comments since his strange Jets season ended. “And, in that,” he added, “there is a lot of peace and a lot of comfort.” Tebow barely played for the Jets last season. “An absolute mess,” is the way recently retired special teams coordinator Mike Westhoff described it. Tebow has two years left on his contract, but New York is expected to trade or release him in the next few weeks. So far, destination unknown.

“I can’t imagine a scenario in which he’ll be a Jacksonville Jaguar,” new general manager David Caldwell declared last week. “Even if he’s released.” While there’s an outside chance Tebow could remain a New Yorker, depending on the whims of the still -to-behired GM, it appears highly unlikely. So, that’s two NFL teams down – the only ones, at that, who showed any interest last offseason when Denver shopped him – and the 25-yearold Tebow’s options appear to be dwindling. “Tim Tebow is an extremely popular individual – or, he was,” said former Cowboys executive Gil Brandt, now an analyst for NFL.com. “I think his popularity has waned significantly the last three or four months.” The buzz these days belongs to young quarterbacks like Washington’s Robert Griffin III, Seattle’s Russell Wilson, Indianapolis’ Andrew Luck and San Francisco’s Colin Kaepernick. It seems so long ago now that Tebowing – his signature dropping to a knee for a prayerful pose – was all the rage. But even Tebow never Tebowed during the regular season for the Jets. Not once. Quite a fall for a Heisman Trophy winner and two-time

national champion with the University of Florida, and whose No. 15 Broncos jersey ranked second in national sales to Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers in 2011. “I think it’s fair to say,” Tebow acknowledged last month, “that I’m a little disappointed.” The Jets had every intention of trying to make things work with Tebow when general manager Mike Tannenbaum surprisingly acquired him from Denver last March – after Peyton Manning arrived – for a fourth-round draft pick. But once Tebow got on the field, something went woefully wrong. Tebow went from being considered a key part of Rex Ryan’s offense to almost nonexistent. Offensive coordinator Tony Sparano didn’t know how to use him effectively, and Tebow wasn’t particularly productive when he got his few snaps in the wildcat-style formation. He made his biggest mark on special teams as the personal punt protector, and did all he could to hide his frustration at not playing. But the numbers said it all: a mere 102 yards rushing and 6 of 8 passing for 39 yards. And, the most damning stat of all: zero touchdowns. “I would’ve liked to see him get a chance,” defensive end Mike DeVito said.

Nfl Notes

McCoy perfect fit with Chargers the assoCIateD Press

SAN DIEGO – Mike McCoy’s interview with San Diego went so well that both sides felt he was a perfect fit to become the Chargers’ new coach. McCoy had one thing to do, though, before accepting the offer, so it was a good thing Chargers President Dean Spanos’ private plane was at his disposal. “There was no doubt in my mind when I got back on that plane to go back home,” said McCoy, the former Denver Broncos offensive coordinator who was introduced Tuesday as Chargers’ new coach. “They wanted to keep me here last night. But I said, ‘I’ve got to talk to my wife about this before. If I made the decision without talking to my wife, I might get in a little trouble.’ ” So McCoy flew back to Denver to talk it over with wife Kellie. McCoy, his wife and their two children were on the same

plane Tuesday morning, flying back to San Diego. “Without a doubt we knew this was the place we wanted to be,” said McCoy, who signed a four-year contract. McCoy replaces Norv Turner, who was fired along with general manager A.J. Mike McCoy Smith after the Chargers finished 7-9 and missed the playoffs for the third straight season. The move comes three days after the top-seeded Broncos were eliminated from the playoffs in a double-overtime home loss to the Baltimore Ravens. McCoy, 40, is the same age as Tom Telesco, hired as general manager last week. He interviewed after the Chargers talked to Seattle defensive coordinator Gus Bradley, fired head coaches Lovie Smith and

Ken Whisenhunt, and Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden. toub leaves Bears for k.c.: At Kansas City, Mo., new Chiefs coach Andy Reid hired former Bears assistant Dave Toub to direct special teams Tuesday, and announced that he’s retaining linebackers coach Gary Gibbs and defensive backs coach Emmitt Thomas. Toub has spent the past nine seasons with the Bears. Before that, he worked with special teams and the defensive line for Reid in Philadelphia.

rodgers pulls out of pro Bowl:

At Green Bay, Wis., Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said injuries to “multiple lower extremities” will keep him out of the Pro Bowl this month. Rodgers was to be the NFC’s starting quarterback. But the reigning NFL MVP said on his weekly radio show on Milwaukee’s ESPN AM-540 on Tuesday that he didn’t pass his year-end physical.

LeBron James was the youngest player in NBA history to win rookie of the year, to record a triple-double, to score 1,000 points, to score 10,000 points, to win MVP honors at an All-Star Game ... You get the idea. His latest youngest-to-do-it milestone could come as early as today. He needs 18 points to become the 38th NBA player to score 20,000 in his career. If it happens today when the Miami Heat visit the Golden State Warriors, James will be more than a year younger than anyone else to reach the mark. “You look at how many players have come through this league, the history of the game,” James said. “That 20K mark is very limited. How many guys have done that? It’s very, very limited. “It’ll be big-time. I’m not going to shy away from that. I’m not a big stats guy as far as individual, but that’ll be pretty cool.” James’ teammates say he could have reached 20,000 even faster. “If LeBron was a different kind of player, he’d have a lot more points by now,” Heat guard Dwyane Wade said. “He’s so unselfish. We give him the ball enough to score more. He just won’t do it. We’ve had the discussion. We’ve sat down at dinner and we both said, ‘Sometimes, I wish I had it in me.’ We talk about it, we joke about it, but when the game comes he’s unselfish.” Considering James has scored at least 18 points in 74 of his past 75 games, including playoffs, the milestone would seem likely to be met against the Warriors. It’s the next-to-last game of a strugglefilled road swing for the Heat. Miami is 1-3 so far on the trip, yet still remain a half-game ahead of the New York Knicks for first place in the Eastern Conference standings. Maybe a little celebrating

is exactly what the Heat need right now. If James scores the historic 20,000th point today, he will have done so at the age of 28 years, 17 days. According to STATS LLC, the youngest to date to score 20,000 points was Kobe Bryant, who got there when he was 29 years, 122 days old. And only Bryant, Wilt Chamberlain (29 years, 134 days) and Michael Jordan (29 years, 326 days) reached the milestone before turning 30. “LeBron can think about shooting, then he’ll see one of his teammates are open, and then he makes the right play and gets the ball to them,” Wade said. From the time he started playing basketball, it’s been driven into James’ head that there’s far more to the game than scoring. Imagine if that wasn’t the case. It’s a topic that some of his Heat teammates have debated more than once in recent weeks. The hypothetical scenario: What would happen if a plan was concocted to get James 35 shots in a game, or 40, or even more? How many

points could he score? James has taken more than 25 shots in a game only once so far this season. Entering Tuesday’s play, there’s been 61 other instances of an NBA player shooting that many. “LeBron taking 40 shots? Forget it,” Heat guard James Jones said. “It’s never happening.” He’s probably right. Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant and James Harden are the top four scorers in the league this season, shooting a combined 48 percent. James is fifth entering Tuesday’s play, shooting a career-best of nearly 55 percent. “If you talk to all the basketball ‘people,’ I’m not much of a scorer,” James said. “When the conversation comes up with the best scorers in the game today, I’m never mentioned. Ever. It’s Kobe, it’s KD, it’s Melo, it was D-Wade, but they don’t talk about us anymore. When you talk about scorers, I never get mentioned.” In terms of games played, James could be the seventhfastest in NBA history to join the 20,000 club. Today will be his 726th regular-season game. Chamberlain needed only 499 games to score 20,000, followed by Jordan (620), Oscar Robertson (671), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (684), Elgin Baylor (711) and Allen Iverson (713). If James gets it done today, he’ll reach the 20,000 mark one game faster than Shaquille O’Neal did. “It shows, first of all, that I’ve been healthy,” James said. “It shows that I’ve been fortunate enough to be on the floor and I’ve been able to work on my game. I’ve been able to work on my game and everything that I’ve worked on, I’ve been able to transfer that to a game situation. And I’ve had some teammates as well that have taken a little pressure off me, or I’ve been able to take pressure off them, by using my talents to the best of my ability.”

Knicks boss may want to hear what’s said to Melo the assoCIateD Press

NEW YORK – Listen up! Talk trash to Carmelo Anthony at Madison Square Garden and you may wind up on tape. Days after Anthony’s overreaction to some bad words led to an NBA suspension, MSG chairman James Dolan had listening devices monitoring everything said to and by Anthony, according to a report in the Newark Star-Ledger. The report Monday said Dolan had two MSG Network audio technicians stationed at opposite corners of the court during Friday’s home game against the Bulls. Holding umbrella-shaped parabola microphones, they were told to record Anthony’s interactions and send the tape directly to Dolan himself. The Knicks did not comment on the report. The team left Monday night for a game Thursday in London against Detroit. Anthony and Boston for-

wardKevinGarnettexchanged words during the Celtics’ 10296 victory Jan. 7. Anthony, clearly thrown off his game and finishing just 6 of 26 from the field, then tried to confront Garnett near the locker room and team bus after the game and received a oneCarmelo game suspenanthony sion from the NBA. Anthony would not reveal what was said by Garnett, only that it was something he felt a man shouldn’t say to another man. Dolan apparently wants to ability to hear for himself. Teams routinely send videotape of plays they felt should have been fouls to the league office, and perhaps Dolan wants to be able to provide NBA officials with audio proof of what goes on with Anthony. Dolan hasn’t taken ques-

tions from reporters covering the Knicks in nearly six years, but he remains keenly interested and insistent in knowing what is going on with the team. Public relations officials used to record interviews with players and coaches, and they continue to listen and take notes of what is said. General manager Glen Grunwald rarely conducts interviews and Dolan is such a stickler for his media rules that when he fired Larry Brown in 2006, he withheld payment for cause because Brown had conducted a roadside interview with reporters without a public relations official present, in violation of MSG rules. An NBA spokesman said there was nothing wrong with the extra equipment – there already were additional microphones around the court Friday because it was a national TV game – and added that the league doesn’t comment on anything teams send for review.

Armstrong seeks agreements with Justice Dept., USADA By LIZ CLARKE

The Washington Post

AP file photo

Lance Armstrong rides through the countryside July 7, 2005, during the Tour de France. In 2005, Armstrong was named Associated Press Male Athlete of the Year and won ESPN’s ESPY Award for Best Male Athlete.

Now, we’ll never know

PARIS – Two enduring myths about Lance Armstrong should be laid to rest after his confession to Oprah Winfrey. One is that even if he doped, Armstrong was still a truly exceptional athlete, so naturally gifted and determined that he could have won the Tour de France without drugs. The other is that Armstrong must have been the best rider in a bad bunch, because so many of his Tour rivals also were doping and yet he always came out on top. Phooey. Perhaps the promise and natural physical ability Armstrong demonstrated as a teenage triathlete, when one assumes and hopes he was clean, always were going to shine through and lead to some degree of success in professional sports, although surely not to the record seven Tour titles that have since been stripped from him. Or perhaps it was only drugs and blood transfusions that made a serial winner of Armstrong. Perhaps he would have been far less stellar without them, not quite a donkey but not a world-beater, either. The sad truth, one of many with Armstrong, is we will never know either way. After years of insisting he competed clean, Armstrong stunningly reversed course in his interview this week with Winfrey. It will air in two parts Thursday and Friday.

VIEWS John Leicester

More forgiving souls will continue to argue that since so many riders were cheating, the playing field in Armstrong’s era was more or less level and perversely fair. Phooey to that, too. Some riders refused to join the chemical warfare that cycling became. People such as Christophe Bassons, a French cyclist shunned and told to pipe down by his peers after he punctured the silence about doping and spoke out at the 1999 Tour, the first Armstrong won. To now still cling to the idea that Armstrong was always going to beat riders like Bassons is grossly unfair, because it cannot be proved. “Christophe Bassons was a talented rider, for sure,” Jonathan Vaughters, one of Armstrong’s U.S. Postal Service teammates on the 1999 Tour, said in a phone interview this week. “How would he have done in the Tour de France had it been an equal playing field? We’ll never know.” Bassons himself said: “In the top 30 or 40, you had a bunch of riders who could have been on the podium or challenged those at the top” if doping hadn’t skewed the competition. Just as some people get

drunker than others after a bottle of wine, dopers don’t all get the same performance benefits from drugs they take. Some could afford more or better doping than others, or more devious doctors and more reliable suppliers. Some are willing to take bigger risks, larger or more frequent doses and try products or methods that others wouldn’t. Lemont native Christian Vande Velde, a teammate of Armstrong’s on the 1999 and 2001 Tours, testified to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency that he disliked needles and injecting himself and fretted about getting caught and the health risks of doping. So he didn’t adhere religiously to the doping program drawn up by the team medic; “I was not a model patient,” Vande Velde testified. And Armstrong? Did he win because he was simply a more accomplished and organized doper? Winning the Tour isn’t purely an individual achievement but also a team one. The systematic doping program his U.S. Postal teammates detailed to USADA gave them and their leader, Armstrong, a performance advantage over rivals who weren’t so organized and dishonest. • John Leicester is an international sports columnist for The Associated Press.

Coaches try to teach what’s right • LYNCH Continued from page C1

“I remember [Armstrong] said that if he had to do it all over again, he would choose (to have) cancer because of all the things he learned,” Langanis said. “It is alarming that someone can be so inspiring and then do something so deceitful.” While the lying is apparent, Johnsburg boys basketball coach Mike Toussaint also saw positive in Armstrong’s admission. “These athletes lose everything because of what they’ve done,” he said. “I think it’s an opportunity to talk to the kids about the consequences.” Crystal Lake South football coach Chuck Ahsmann said that’s a conversation he and his coaches have with players frequently. There is nothing

more important than trying to prevent these admissions from happening in the first place. “When people are making millions of dollars I think there is a push to do whatever they can to win or get better,” Ahsmann said. “But we talk to our kids about the effects those drugs have on your body and your future. “We talk about the proper ways to gain weight, the proper ways to lift and gain muscle and make sure they understand that steroids are not the option. And you hope they listen. I think our school is sending the right message. You just hope (athletes) always make the right decisions.” Armstrong now looks tired. The seven Tour de France titles are gone and with them his role-model status, endorsements, position as chairman

of the Livestrong Foundation he created, and, most importantly, his dignity. And his legal woes are far from over. When I asked Armstrong that day at the White Sox game in 2008 if any of Thomas’ experiences reminded him of his own fight with cancer, he simply said it’s never about reliving those memories. He lives with them every day. Armstrong will live with this forever, too. Perhaps he will utilize what he learns and work for the greater good, as he did after his battle with cancer. Maybe he will be a force to end steroid use in professional sports. We can hope as much. Maybe then we could believe again. • Maureen Lynch is a freelance sports writer.

From the moment Lance Armstrong radically reversed tactics – admitting that he used performance-enhancing drugs – he started banking that his confession will have value in two arenas that have nothing to do with Oprah Winfrey’s TV ratings or his standing in the public eye. One is the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, which has the latitude to shorten his lifetime ban from competition. The other is the U.S. Justice Department, which is weighing whether to join a whistleblower suit that could cost him nearly $100 million. Confessing his doping after years of vehement denials won’t be enough to prevail in either arena, according to those close to the situation. The interview with Winfrey – the specifics of which have not been revealed – is a mere baby step on a longer, more difficult road to redemption. But as Winfrey went on “CBS This Morning” to publicize her exclusive interview, which will air Thursday and Friday nights, Armstrong’s representatives continued working behind the scenes to reach a settlement with the Justice Department and chart a path for his return to competition, likely in triathlon. To persuade the U.S. AntiDoping Agency to allow him to compete again, Armstrong must agree to provide specific information about cycling’s doping culture over the past decade: the drugs that riders took, where they got them, how they skirted detection and outfoxed drug tests. Nothing short of a complete “road map” of cycling’s doping era will be persuasive, given Armstrong’s refusal to come forward in June when USADA was building its case against him and was more inclined to negotiate lenient penalties in

Armstrong was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and banned from the sport for life in October, following USADA’s 1,000-page report portraying him as the mastermind of the most sophisticated doping scheme in sporting history. According to USADA’s code, a lifetime ban from competition can be scaled back to no fewer than eight years – and that’s assuming the athlete confesses fully and provides new information that helps USADA ensure clean competition in the future. That’s the sticking point. Armstrong, 41, isn’t interested in cooperating unless he can return to competition much sooner. He’s arguing that USADA has the latitude to lessen that penalty, as it did with the cyclists who confessed their own doping in testifying against him in June. They were suspended six months. Armstrong’s negotiating window with the Justice Department is much shorter. Unless both parties agree to an extension, the Justice Department must decide by Thursday

whether to join a whistleblower suit filed by Floyd Landis, another disgraced cyclist who was stripped of his 2006 Tour de France title. The suit asserts that Armstrong defrauded the federal government by doping while his team received roughly $35 million in sponsorship revenue from the U.S. Postal Service. Its contract made clear that riders were to compete “clean.” In whistleblower cases, damages are typically tripled. The suit would be strengthened considerably if the Justice Department gets involved, because Landis would have to bear the legal costs going forward, and it’s not clear what Armstrong can offer in terms of restitution or information. He reportedly has offered to repay a portion of the sponsorship dollars, but his Washington-based lawyer, Robert D. Luskin, insisted Tuesday that Armstrong has not offered to incriminate any of his associates as part of a settlement, although talks for a mutually satisfactory conclusion continue. “There is no truth to the suggestion that Lance has offered to minimize his own liability by implicating others,” Luskin said. While much has been made about the legal liability Armstrong has exposed himself to by confessing his doping to Winfrey, it may not figure prominently in the whistleblower suit, in which the crux of his defense won’t hinge on defeating doping allegations. Rather, it’s expected to be twofold: That the U.S. Postal Service’s contract was with Tailwind Sports, which owned the team, rather than Armstrong himself; and that the U.S. Postal Service benefited handsomely from the relationship rather than being defrauded by it, earning millions of dollars in exposure through its association.

Alpaca herd grows Ranch expansion plans in McHenry County By BRETT ROWLAND

browland@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – While researching business opportunities eight years ago, Paul and Gail Wasserstein discovered alpacas at the Lake County Fair. “I found them enchanting,” Gail Wasserstein said. Three weeks later, the couple brought five alpacas to their home in Barrington. They recently moved – with their herd of more than 50 alpacas – to a 37-acre former horse ranch near Crystal Lake. They plan to expand the business, Andean Vista Ranch, into a full-time job after retirement. Alpacas, a member of the camel family, are native of South America. They were first introduced into the United States in 1984 and remain a cottage industry here. More than 90 percent of alpacas live in Bolivia, Chile and Peru, according to trade groups. However, their numbers are growing in the U.S. Illinois is home to 4,482 registered alpacas, according to Alpaca Registry Inc., an industry association for owners and breeders which said virtually all alpacas are registered. McHenry County is home to about eight alpaca farms and new farms continue to pop up throughout the state, said Don Kent, president of the Illinois Alpaca Owners and Breeders Association and owner of Tall Corn Alpacas in Marengo. “It’s still a very, very small industry. It’s a niche market,” he said. “But more and more farms are sprouting up.” Alpaca fleece is touted as hypoallergenic, nearly 10 times warmer than wool, breathable, and it competes

8BUSINESS rOUNDUP retail sales rose 0.5 percent in December WASHINGTON – U.S. consumers increased their spending at retail businesses in December, buying more autos, furniture and clothing. Steady job growth and lower gas prices kept consumers shopping for the holidays, despite worries about potentially tax increases. The Commerce Department said Tuesday that retail sales rose 0.5 percent in December from November, slightly better than November’s 0.4 percent increase and the best showing since September. A 1.6 percent jump in sales of autos and auto parts led all categories. Car companies closed out their best sales year since 2007. Total retail spending was even stronger when factoring out a drop in gas prices. Excluding a 1.6 percent decline in gas station sales, retail spending increased 0.8 percent. The December increase suggests consumers were not too worried about tense negotiations to resolve the fiscal cliff. Congress and the White House ultimately reached a deal on Jan. 1 that prevented income taxes from rising for most households. Still, retail sales are likely to weaken in the first half of 2013 because lawmakers and President Barack Obama allowed a two-year reduction in Social Security payroll taxes to lapse.

U.S. home prices up sharply in November

Alpacas wait to go out to pasture at Andean Vista Ranch near Crystal Lake. with cashmere as a luxury fiber, Gail Wasserstein said. The Wassersteins moved to the ranch on Oak Ridge Road last November and spent two weeks transferring their herd to the new home. Nearby homeowners have welcomed the couple and their odd-looking animals to the neighborhood. “We had cars pulling over to the side of the road to see them,” Gail said. “[Our neighbors] were all very nice and very welcoming.” Gail works full time as a human resources manager in the manufacturing industry while her husband, Paul, now works part time. He takes care of the day-to-day needs of the herd. Gail oversees the breeding and showing of the alpacas.

Though neither had a farm background, they decided to try raising alpacas. One acre can support eight to 10 alpacas. By comparison, the rule is about one horse per acre, Gail said. “They don’t require a lot of care,” she said. “It’s more about how much time you want to spend with them.” When Paul lost his job, they started selling alpacas for additional income. Their first alpaca sold for more than $22,000. Prior to the recession, Gail estimated they had average annual sales of more than $100,000. “Just like everything in the economy, [prices for alpacas have] softened now,” Gail said.

WASHINGTON – U.S. home prices in November extended their steady recovery from the housing bust, rising 7.4 percent compared with a year ago. It was the biggest year-over-year increase in 6½ years. CoreLogic, a private data provider, says prices also rose 0.3 percent in November from October. The month-to-month figures are not seasonally adjusted. Prices in November were higher than in November 2011 in all but six states. The sharpest increases were in Arizona, Nevada and Idaho. Only 13 of 100 large cities that CoreLogic studies reported year-over-year price declines. That was down from 20 cities that reported year-over-year declines in October. Steady increases in prices are helping fuel the housing recovery. They’re encouraging some people to sell homes and enticing some would-be buyers to purchase homes before prices rise further.

Wal-Mart to hire 100K vets, boost U.S. sourcing The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world’s largest retailer and nation’s largest private employer, is making a pledge to boost its sourcing from domestic suppliers and hire more than 100,000 veterans. The plans were to be announced as part of an address by Bill Simon, president and CEO of WalMart’s U.S. business, at an annual retail industry convention in New York. The company, based in Bentonville, Ark., says it plans to buy an additional $50 billion in U.S. products over the next 10 years. According to data from Wal-Mart’s suppliers, items that are made, sourced or grown in the U.S. account for about two-thirds of the company’s spending on products for its U.S. business. Wal-Mart also projects that it will hire more than 100,000 recently discharged veterans in the next five years. Honorably discharged veterans will have a “place to go,” said Wal-Mart’s Simon, according to prepared text supplied by the discounter. The hiring pledge, which will begin on Memorial Day, covers veterans within 12 months of leaving active duty. Most of the jobs will be in Wal-Mart’s stores or its Sam’s club locations. Some will be in the company’s distribution centers. “Let’s be clear; hiring a veteran can be one of

the best decisions any of us can make,” Simon plans to say in his address to retailers gathered on the third day of the four-day National Retail Federation convention. “Veterans have a record of performance under pressure. They’re quick learners, and they’re team players. These are leaders with discipline, training, and a passion for service. There is a seriousness and sense of purpose that the military instills, and we need it today more than ever.” Wal-Mart says it believes it is already the largesy private employer of veterans in the country. The company says that it has spoken to the White House about its commitment, and said first lady Michelle Obama’s team already has expressed an interest in working with Wal-Mart and with the rest of the business community. In the next several weeks, the White House will convene the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense and major U.S. employers to encourage businesses to make significant commitments to train and employ American’s returning veterans, according to Simon’s prepared text. Mrs. Obama, who spearheaded a White House drive to encourage businesses to hire veterans, praised Wal-Mart’s announcement, calling it “historic.” “We all believe that no one who serves our country should have to fight for a job once they

return home,” Mrs. Obama said in the statement. “Wal-Mart is setting a groundbreaking example for the private sector to follow.” Wal-Mart which also operates Sam’s Clubs, employs more than 1.4 million workers in the U.S. Simon also was set to announce at the retail convention that the company would help parttime workers transition to full-time status if they so desired. “We will also bring more transparency to our scheduling system so part-time workers can choose more hours for themselves,” Simon said was to say. The moves could help repair the company’s image, following allegations that its Mexico unit was handing out bribes to local officials to speed up getting building permits and gain other favors. According to emails recently released by lawmakers, CEO Mike Duke found out in 2005 about the bribes. Lawmakers say that contradicts earlier claims by the company that executives weren’t aware of the bribes made by the company. Allegations first surfaced in April that WalMart failed to notify law enforcement that company officials authorized the bribes. Wal-Mart has been working with government officials in the U.S. and Mexico on that investigation.

Weigh the benefits and risks of bonds

8IN BRIEF Falling food, gas costs lower wholesale prices

WASHINGTON – U.S. wholesale prices fell for the third month in a row last month, pushed down by falling food and gas costs. The drop is the latest evidence inflation is tame. The producer price index dropped 0.2 percent in December, the Labor Department said Tuesday. That follows a decline of 0.8 percent in November. The index measures price changes before they reach the consumer. Wholesale prices rose 1.3 percent in 2012, much lower than the 4.7 percent increase in 2011. Excluding the volatile food and energy categories, core wholesale prices ticked up 0.1 percent in December. They rose 2 percent in 2012, below a 3 percent increase in 2011. Low inflation means consumers have more money to spend, which helps the economy. It also gives the Federal Reserve more room to keep interest rates low in an effort to spur economic growth.

Businesses increased stockpiles 0.3 percent

WASHINGTON – U.S. companies increased their stockpiles a steady pace in November from October, responding to a solid increase in sales. The Commerce Department says business inventories grew 0.3 percent in November, matching the October gain. Sales rose 1 percent in November, the best showing since a 1.2 percent rise in September. In October, sales had fallen 0.3 percent, reflecting in part disruptions caused by Superstorm Sandy. More restocking leads to more factory production, which boosts economic growth. Faster restocking helped the economy grow at a 3.1 percent annual rate from July through September.

LOCAL fiNANCE Timothy J. Dooley

During the past decade, many long-term fundamentals of investing have been turned upside down and one example is the performance of U.S. stocks compared with bonds. Over longer time periods, such as 20 or 30 years, stocks exhibited higher average annual returns along with greater volatility. Bonds, in contrast, presented lower long-term returns along with fewer ups and downs. But the 10-year period ending Dec. 31, 2012, has shown the opposite, with the average annual return of investment-grade bonds exceeding stocks by a margin of 5.8 percent compared with 2.9 percent. No one knows for sure whether the recent performance of bonds will continue, but events currently present in the U.S. economy are causing observers to question the outlook in the years ahead. Interest rates. The Federal Reserve has maintained the federal funds rate between 0 and 0.25 percent with the goal of stimulating the economy. Given how low short-term interest rates are, it is likely that they will

turn upward at some point, which would present challenges for bondholders. Historically, higher interest rates have caused the prices of existing bonds to fall as investors have pursued newly issued bonds paying higher rates. This scenario presents the potential for losses for existing bondholders. For example, let’s say an investor buys a 3 percent, 10-year bond for $100,000. If rates go up to 4 percent, that bond will fall (on paper) to approximately $94,000 offsetting the entire year’s interest payment. Worse, you are now stuck at 3 percent for 10 years, because you can’t sell the bond without incurring the loss. This is the primary reason that even with conservative clients, we are underweight in bonds. Inflation. During 2012, inflation

averaged only 1.8 percent, quite low compared to the historical average of 2.9 percent. But if inflation begins to increase, an investor would lose money on a bond with a yield lower than the rate of inflation. Some observers believe that if the U.S. economy begins generating stronger growth, inflation could once again spike upward. Many top investment gurus feel that the billions of dollars that have been filtered through the financial markets, if successful in stimulating the economy, would be very inflationary. Strong inflation is very detrimental to the buying power of your bond portfolio. Many wealthier clients hold a lot of money in municipal tax-free bonds. They’ve held up well but investors should look at the sensitivity of the portfolio to changes in interest rates and inflation. Top financial advisers will provide a free sensitivity analysis which allows you a much better perspective as to what yo can expect as rates change – before it becomes reality.

Continued from page E1 There also are tax benefits to owning alpacas and other livestock. It allows the Wassersteins to get agricultural zoning for their property. Property taxes are much lower on land used for agricultural purposes than on commercial or residential property. “My first return on investment was when I filed my taxes and received back all the federal taxes I had paid in my [human resources] job,” Gail said. “[The tax advantage] was the last thing I heard that catapulted us into alpacas.” Gail said they used a year of her income to cover the costs of buying a startup herd. They jumped in after discovering the tax benefits. Since then, they have reinvested much of their profits into the business in their quest to breed the perfect alpaca. The Wassersteins take part in alpaca shows around the country and have produced several national champions from their breeding. “Showing is the best marketing we feel we can do

Federal spending. Sizable federal deficits are almost old news as the government looks for ways to stimulate the country’s economic engines. While economic growth is a laudable objective, outsized federal spending may impact the financial markets. If the federal government is forced to pay higher interest rates to entice investors to fund the debt, this action could lead to higher interest rates on other types of bonds as well in response to investor demand. Bonds can help investors balance a portfolio weighted to stock funds or other assets. When making decisions about investments, it is important to weigh both the benefits and the risks associated with bonds and any other assets that you own.

Paul Wasserstein looks over his alpaca herd at Andean Vista Ranch near Crystal Lake for our business,” Gail said. “To get out there and have our breeding program evaluated against other breeding programs. We strive to be one of the top breeders in the country.”

The Wassersteins enjoy working with the alpacas, which is perhaps the most attractive part of their retirement plan. The money and tax benefits were all “added pluses”

to “finding something that we loved to do and a business that we could run and enjoy,” Gail said. “We don’t ever plan to retire,” she said. “This is what we plan to do.”

The Illinois Department of Employment Security is closing seven offices and reducing staff by nearly 200 people. In a news release, the agency says the closings are happening in part because a somewhat improved economy has led to falling unemployment insurance claims. Employment Security Director Jay Rowell says that’s the irony about the department. The nearly 100 percent federal-funded agency hires more people when the economy worsens and lets people go when there’s an uptick in growth. “This difficult decision reflects smaller federal discretionary spending and undoubtedly is unwelcome in many corners of our state,” he said. The seven offices shutting down are in Centralia, DeKalb, East St. Louis, Galesburg, Jacksonville, Mattoon and Murphysboro. Closings are expected in midMarch. Positions in other offices across the state also will be impacted. The department says the people who’ll be most affected are those who prefer in-person service and aren’t comfortable accessing benefits via the Internet.

Voltaire, whose real name was Francois-Marie Arouet, said, “Chance is a word void of sense; nothing can exist without a cause.” You have chances in bridge that are not void of sense if you have analyzed the available data. In this deal, though, it is knowledge of a void that gives you a chance to make a tough contract. South is in six spades. West leads the heart jack. How should declarer proceed? East opened three clubs to show a respectable seven-card suit and limited high-card values. True, because there is no weak twobid in clubs, sometimes a player will open three clubs with a strong six-card suit. But in this instance, if West had had a club, he would have led it. North’s raise to ﬁve spades was aggressive, but without it, South would not have had a story with which to bore dinner companions for weeks. Declarer will initially think that if the diamond ﬁnesse works, he will take seven spades, two hearts, two diamonds and a diamond ruff in the dummy. But what chance has that

ﬁnesse? It is surely zero. Assuming West’s lead is honest, East is marked with nine points in hearts and clubs. With the diamond king as well, he would have opened one club, not three. There is one winning line. South ruffs the ﬁrst trick, draws two rounds of trumps ending on the board, and cashes the top hearts, discarding his diamond ace and queen! Then he ruffs a heart, removes West’s last trump, and leads his remaining diamond. West must let declarer into the dummy. South takes seven spades, four hearts and one diamond.

TODAY - There are excellent chances for you to be luckier than usual in the year ahead in terms of achieving long-held dreams. This is possible even if the effort you put forth is only nominal. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- It would do wonders for you to try to alter your weekday routine a bit. Plan to do something fun with the family that you would usually reserve for weekends. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Make a concerted effort to stay in contact with family and/or friends who are extremely important to your immediate plans. They’ll be more inclined to help if you’re in close proximity. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Don’t hesitate to think bigger-than-life when putting together a financial endeavor. Conditions are exceptionally good for you to pull off something on a grand scale. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- What works out well for you is likely to do so for those with whom you’re directly involved. This is because everyone is apt to be looking out for one another’s interests. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Think positive and keep the faith, because at the very times when things look like they’re going against you, your associates are likely to come through. They’ll not let you down. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Even though it might look like you’re behaving extravagantly, what you’re really doing is trying your best to make a solid investment of good will in your relationships with others. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- This might be one of your better days to talk to influential people about helping you advance a big personal ambition. If you want to succeed, you must be as forthright as possible. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If you’ve been restless lately and have the means to do something about it, this might be a good time to make some travel plans. Target a place that you’ve always wanted to visit. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- This could be a profitable day in more ways than one. Although you might gain financially, you’ll also learn something extremely valuable in the process. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Persons with whom you’ll have one-on-one dealings, either socially and commercially, are likely to treat you in a more bountiful fashion than usual. Be just as generous in return. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Your motives for helping others will be honest and sincere, yet owing to conditions of which you’re unaware, you’ll be the one who stands to benefit the most from your actions. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Although your rabbit’s foot might not be working in high-risk situations, you still could be very lucky when dealing with someone with whom you share strong emotional bonds.

Cold Weather Broccoli Pasta

henever I have too little time and too few ingredients on hand – or when I’ve been eating too much meat – I cook up some broccoli pasta. Which means I make it for dinner about once every 10 days! It’s delicious, healthy, inexpensive and easy to prepare. The recipe, in fact, is a cinch, consisting of just a few ingredients – pasta, chicken broth, Parmigiano-Reggiano, olive oil and a large head of the namesake crucifer. I always have four of those ingredients in house, so all I need to do is run out and pick up some broccoli and I’m good to go. Another of this recipe’s charms is its flexibility. I can swap in vegetable broth for chicken broth, spaghetti for the angel hair pasta, and any other grated hard cheese for the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Sometimes I’ll even lose the broccoli in favor of roasted cauliflower or Brussels sprouts. But what makes the dish so popular in my house is its comfort factor. I serve it soupy, so you can slurp the chicken broth along with the strands of pasta. I also make sure there’s some crusty bread within easy reach, which helps to mop up the broth not captured with a spoon.

into 2-inch pieces. Peel any thick stem pieces to remove the thick skin. On a rimmed baking sheet, arrange the broccoli in a single layer. Drizzle with the oil, then sprinkle with salt to taste and toss well. Place on the top oven rack and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the broccoli is crisp tender and slightly brown at the edges. Transfer the broccoli to a large skillet, add the pepper flakes and the chicken

EVERYDAY DINNERS Sara Moulton In the original version of this recipe (I’ve been making it for years), I sautéed the broccoli in olive oil over very high heat until it was quite brown around the edges. The problem with this method is that the broccoli quickly soaked up all the olive oil and I always ended up having to add quite a bit more. I switched to oven-roasting it, which helps to decrease the amount of olive oil necessary. It also requires very little baby-sitting. This dish is so economical it’s almost ecological. I use all of the broccoli, not just the florets. For years I used to trash the stems, but the stems are also plenty edible. Just peel off the skin, cut them up, and you’re ready.

broth, then bring to a boil over mediumhigh heat. When the water in the large pot comes to a boil, add a hefty pinch of salt and the pasta. Stir and cook for 2 minutes, or until the pasta is limp but not quite cooked through. Drain the pasta and transfer it to the broccoli pan. Simmer for 2 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente. Stir in the Parmigia-

no-Reggiano and salt to taste. Ladle into shallow soup bowls and serve with crusty bread.

Weeknight-friendly risotto

Creamy Brown Rice Risotto With Brussels Sprouts And Apple

Whole grain is healthier option but requires extra ingredient By J.M. HIRSCH

The Associated Press I’m always searching for ways to make a healthier version of risotto, one of my favorite winter Italian dishes. Risotto traditionally is made with starchy white rice. That starch is essential to producing a creamy, thick risotto. But I wanted a whole-grain version. Trouble is, brown rice doesn’t release

Tip: Cooking with rice

When used in a recipe, rice can easily become too mushy. Remove it from the heat before it is cooked through and allow it to finish cooking with the rest of the ingredients. nearly as much starch during cooking, so substituting it often produces risotto that is thin and uninspiring. It took me a few attempts, but I eventually figured out

how to have my whole grains and my thick and creamy risotto. And it was simple. I just needed to add starch. Once I had that down, then I needed to add flavor. For this recipe, I came up with two variations, one with Brussels sprouts and apple, another with asparagus and tomatoes. Both are incredibly delicious.

Loaded potatoes celebrate the sweet By ELIZABETH KARMEL

Loaded Sweet Potatoes With Roasted Garlic

The Associated Press

AP photo

Much as I love mashed white potatoes, my favorite “potato” is the sweet variety. I’ve been cooking and eating sweet potatoes as long as I can remember. And when I found out they were loaded with vitamins and other goodfor-you stuff like fiber, I immediately thought. ... Here’s a great excuse to eat sweet potato pie! Kidding aside, sweet potatoes are just as good if not better than traditional baking potatoes in savory applications. My favorite one-bowl meal in winter is a loaded baked potato. And I often make it with sweet potatoes. This year, I have been topping my potato with sautéed kale, which not only looks stunning – all that orange and green – but also is a perfect complement to the sweet “meaty” potato. But that’s not all. I also roast garlic and make it into a paste to flavor the potato, folding in just a touch of butter and a pinch of sage. I scoop out half of the potato, mix it all together, add half the cheese and put it back into the shells like you would a twice-baked potato. At this point, the recipe can be made in advance and re-heated another day. Just before serving, you sprinkle on more cheese, add a healthy spoonful of the sauteed kale and, if you like, top with toasted pumpkin seeds for a welcome crunch. If you don’t like kale, you can saute spinach instead. And while I have specified fontina and Gruyere for the cheeses, Parmesan, cheddar and mozzarella are great, too. I generally make this loaded potato a “meatless meal,” but you could eas-

ily add leftover or rotisserie chicken.

Loaded Sweet Potatoes With Roasted Garlic Start to finish: 2 1/2 hours Servings: 8

For the garlic: 3 heads garlic Olive oil Kosher salt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature For the sweet potatoes: 4 large sweet potatoes Olive oil 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature Pinch of dried sage Kosher salt 1 large shallot, chopped 1 bunch (about 5 ounces) baby or chopped Tuscan kale 1/2 cup grated fontina cheese Ground black pepper, to taste 1/2 to 1 cup shredded white cheddar, Gruyere or mozzarella cheese 3 tablespoons toasted pumpkin seeds (optional) Roasted chicken (optional) Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Remove the outer layer of papery skin from the heads of garlic. Slice off 1/4 inch from pointy top of each. Place each head of garlic, cut side up, on a square of heavy-duty foil. Drizzle each with olive oil, then sprinkle with a bit of salt. Wrap the foil loosely up and over the garlic heads, then roast for 1 hour, or until the cloves are golden-brown and soft. Remove and let cool. Once the garlic has cooled enough to handle, remove the cloves from their skins. The most efficient way to do this is to squeeze the whole head from the bottom. In a small food processor, combine the garlic cloves and butter, then pulse until chopped and combined. This can be done up to 2 days in advance.

Refrigerate until needed. To roast the potatoes, heat the oven to 400 degree F. Prick the sweet potatoes with a fork, then rub them with oil. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until tender. Meanwhile, if the roasted garlic paste has been refrigerated, let it come to room temperature while the potatoes roast. Once it has warmed, mix in the butter, sage and a pinch of salt. Set aside. About 15 minutes before the potatoes have finished, finely chop the shallot. In a medium saute pan over medium-high, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the shallot and saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the kale, and saute for a few minutes, stirring constantly, until tender. Set aside. When the potatoes have finished baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool until easy to touch. Leave the oven on. Cut the potatoes down the middle and scoop out about half of the flesh from each, making sure to keep a thick layer of sweet potato within the skin so that it can stand on its own. In a bowl, mash the sweet potato, the roasted garlic and sage mixture and the fontina cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the filling between each potato, spooning it into the shell of each. Top with your choice of shredded cheese and the hot sauteed kale. Arrange the potatoes on a baking sheet and return to the oven until hot, about 15 minutes. They also can be microwaved for 2 minutes. Serve hot, garnished with pumpkin seeds and chicken, if desired.

Simple tricks make for perfect Brussels sprouts By SARA MOULTON The Associated Press

Brussels sprouts can generate some pretty strong opinions. As with cilantro or goat cheese, you either love them or hate them. The little stinkers are the smallest of the crucifers and, when prepared incorrectly, can develop a scary aroma and deadly taste. In fairness, it’s hard to cook Brussels sprouts to their best advantage because they are so densely constructed. By the time the heat gets to the core, there’s a good chance that the outside has been overcooked. It used to be that I had no better idea about what to do with them than anyone else. I just followed the procedure I learned in cooking school – trim them, use a knife to score the bottom in a crisscross pattern 1/4 inch deep (so they cook more evenly), and boil or steam them until done. The results were not exactly

inspiring. It wasn’t until the Two Hot Tamales showed me a better way that I fell in love. The Tamales – chefs Sue Fenniger and Mary Sue Milliken, the co-hosts of their own show on the Food Network once upon a time – sliced the sprouts very thin, then quickly sauteed them. And I do mean quickly – 3 to 5 minutes in the pan and they’re good to go. Even more impressive than the process is the result – the surprising deliciousness of these shredded sauteed Brussels sprouts. You don’t need a lot of fat to cook them in, and the little guys pair up nicely with all sorts of toasted nuts. I’ve opted for walnuts in this recipe, but swap in your favorite. And a tart little spritz of lemon provides the finishing touch. Take my word for it; when it comes to Brussels sprouts, this recipe has turned haters into believers over and over again.

Quick Sautéed Brussels Sprouts with Toasted Walnuts and Lemon Start to finish: 15 minutes Servings: 6

Quick Sautéed Brussels Sprouts with Toasted Walnuts and Lemon

1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Zest and juice of 1 lemon Kosher salt and ground black pepper Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Put the walnuts in a pie plate and toast them in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are fragrant and are a shade darker. Trim the Brussels sprouts and discard any damaged outside leaves. Use a food processor fitted with the thin slicing blade to shred the sprouts. In a large skillet over medium-high, heat the oil. Add the sprouts and lemon zest, then reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until crisp tender, about 5 minutes. The pan will seem very crowded in the beginning,

Noodle soup hits the spot

On these cold winter days, a good bowl of soup can really hit the spot. Chicken noodle soup is a healthy recipe that includes chicken, carrots, celery, onion and egg noodles.

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove the bones from the broth with a slotted spoon. Discard them. Now, to that pot of stock, add carrots, celery, green beans, onion, bay leaves, fresh thyme and parsley, salt and black pepper. Let this simmer for 30 minutes, until the veggies are soft. Add all of the chicken meat to the pot and stir to combine. Simmer for an additional 10 minutes, then add the bag of frozen noodles. Simmer 20 minutes until noodles are cooked. Remove the bay leaves, parsley and thyme. Stir in peas and serve.

The conventional wisdom of cutting carbs and calories generally has meant that pasta is a no-go. But recently, a new noodle has challenged that thinking, giving dieters a fresh – albeit slightly different – way to have their pasta and their New Year’s resolutions. It’s so-called shirataki noodles that have attracted the attention of so many dieters of late. Their appeal? No carbs, no fat and almost no calories. No kidding? It’s true. These slightly chewy noodles, which usually are found alongside the tofu and other refrigerated Asian foods in grocers’ produce sections, are made from a water-soluble fiber that comes from a type of sweet potato (some are made with tofu as well, which contains a tiny bit of fat). Though they once were found only in Asian markets, they have begun showing up in most large supermarkets. Shaped like spaghetti, fettuccine and even “rice,” shirataki noodles come packed in water and require nothing more than draining, rinsing and briefly boiling. Don’t skip the rinsing step. This washes away a slight bitterness and funky smell. Fear not, both disappear entirely once you’ve rinsed and boiled. And while they certainly are filling, in keeping with their lack of carbs and calories, the noodles have virtually zero flavor. But Grace Young, author of “Stir-Frying to the Sky’s Edge,” considers that an advantage. She says a lack of flavor makes shirataki the perfect ingredient for dishes

where the other ingredients or the sauce define the dish. Because of their bland flavor and chewy texture, Young advises picking companion ingredients for shirataki carefully. Salty and bright, tangy flavors work well. This way, she says, every bite will have that perfect blend of taste and consistency.

Chicken And Shirataki Noodle Soup Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 6

Add the carrots, celery, ginger and garlic. Cook, uncovered, until the vegetables are tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the shirataki and chicken, then simmer until the noodles are just hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the dill and lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper.

Sausage is diet-friendly

Dish combines chicken sausage with squash, herbs By BonniE S. BEnwicK The Washington Post

Salty olives and capers and a good-quality chicken sausage make all the difference in this Paleo Diet-friendly main course. To reduce prep time further, shop at a salad bar for cut vegetables. Feel free to add red bell peppers, eggplant or tomatoes, and adjust the cooking time accordingly. We used an organic apple chicken sausage made by Coleman Natural Foods, available at Whole Foods Markets.

1/2 lemon

1 medium red onion 12 ounces cooked chicken sausage (in links), such as the original Brat Hans organic apple chicken sausage 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as needed 1 1/2 pounds mixed summer squash and zucchini 1/2 cup mixed fresh flat-leaf parsley, basil and/or thyme leaves 1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives (about 25) 1/4 teaspoon salt, or more to taste 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or more to taste 1/4 cup capers, drained

until just tender. Season with the salt and pepper, then return the sausage and onion to the skillet. Add the olives and capers, stirring to incorporate. Squeeze the juice of the lemon half over the mixture in the skillet; cook until the mixture is evenly heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Remove from the heat, then stir in the herbs. Divide among individual plates. Serve warm.

Cut the onion into very thin slices. Cut the sausage crosswise into 2-inch chunks. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage chunks and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes.

Woman in love with gay man must begin to look elsewhere Dear Abby: “Myles” and I have known each other for five years, but have grown really close over the past three. We tell each other everything, and I have fallen in love with him. A few months ago, Myles sent me a text saying he needed to tell me a “secret.” He went on to say the guy he had told me was his brother, “Jeff,” is really his lover. Needless to say, that bombshell floored me. We have discussed it in person, and I have never told him how I feel. I visit them a couple of times a month and always go home feeling hurt. I want Myles for myself, even though I know I can’t have him. I don’t want to lose him as my friend, but it hurts seeing him and Jeff together. How do I resolve this? – Girl Left Behind In California

Dear Left Behind: Start by being as honest with Myles as he was with you. Tell him that over the course of your friendship you fell in love with him – and that you wish you had known he was gay before you became so emotionally involved. If you want romance, you will have to look for it elsewhere. For you to find it, I cannot stress strongly enough that you will need to feel good about yourself. Stop torturing yourself by

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips visiting the two lovebirds and take a break for a while. A LONG while. Dear Abby: I am a 36year-old woman who has never been married or had children. For the past two years, I’ve been seeing a man I’ll call Frank. I love him deeply, and I believe he feels the same about me. Frank is still married but legally separated from his wife. They have a child who lives with his mom. Frank lives with me, and Frank’s wife lives with another man and has a second child by yet another guy. My problem is, Frank’s wife calls ME whenever she has a fight with her boyfriend. She confides in me like I’m her best friend. I have never talked to Frank about divorcing her, but I’m at my wit’s end over this whole circle. Sometimes I feel like I’m wasting my time with him. Abby, I’m a longtime reader who needs to find a solution to this soap opera. Please help me. – Getting Dizzy In East

Boston

Dear Getting Dizzy: You need to talk to Frank about his degree of commitment

to you. Two years is a long time to live with someone who’s married to someone else – let alone be trying to solve his wife’s love problems. Perhaps it’s time to distance yourself from both of them and figure out what you want to do for YOU. Dear Abby: My friend “Maggie” is getting a divorce. She has been living with my husband and me for four months. She pays onethird of our utility bill but pays no rent. My husband feels that since Maggie is living with us, she should pay something – even if it’s only $100 a month. She’s a lifelong friend, and I don’t know what to do. Maggie is very upset over her messy divorce. Should I ask her for rent money? (I don’t want to fight over this with my husband.) – Only Friend In

Kentucky Dear Only Friend: It de-

pends on Maggie’s financial circumstances. If she has the money, it’s certainly OK to ask. If she doesn’t have the resources – or a job – she should consider finding one so she’s not completely financially dependent on others.

Clear child’s bedroom of stimuli for easy sleep

Frisco

Dear Dr. K: My 8-year-old has trouble falling asleep. Can you give me some practical suggestions that may help? Dear Reader: The pediatricians here at Harvard Medical School who specialize in sleep problems have given me this advice: To help your child (or anyone of any age, for that matter) fall asleep, you must remove the obstacles that may impede or disrupt his sleep. By doing so, you’ll make it much easier for your child to settle down and drift off into a restful slumber. Here are some suggestions that should help: • Stop your child’s caffeine intake at least eight hours before bedtime. Not a lot of 8-year-olds drink coffee or tea, but there’s plenty of caffeine in cola beverages or in chocolate, for example.

Never mind artisanal; ubiquitous rye is fine By JASon wilSon

my position. I tasted both new bottlings in the Frisco, a cocktail I recently discovered. The Bendectine brings out the best qualities in rye, and the drink (along with the Manhattan) has become an official rye cocktail tester.

The Washington Post

When it comes to rye, I often find myself suggesting the bigger, familiar brands. After numerous tastings, I don’t feel the quality falls off much from artisanal varieties. My go-to rye for a few years has been the Russell’s Reserve six-year-old rye (produced by Wild Turkey, owned by Gruppo Campari), followed closely by Bulleit Rye (launched in 2011 by liquor giant Diageo and made at the Four Rose Distillery). Both cost about $25, making them among the best liquor store values. Another pair of recent big-brand releases – Wild Turkey 81 Rye ($23) and Knob Creek Rye ($40) – confirms

Fill a mixing glass halfway with ice. Add the rye whiskey and Benedictine. Shake well, then strain into a chilled cocktail (martini) glass. Twist the lemon peel over the drink (to express the oils), then use it as a garnish.

• Reduce your child’s exposure to bright light for the two hours before bedtime. Dimmer light helps the brain prepare for sleep. • Keep your child’s bedroom dark, quiet and at a comfortable temperature. • If your son still uses a night-light, choose one with a low-intensity bulb. • Reduce the intensity of your child’s reading lamp to 40 watts or less. • Some parents play classical music in the background, hoping it will lull a child to sleep. Bad idea. Music – particularly great music – is not “white noise.” The ingenious melodies and rhythms are compelling and

call to you even when you’re asleep. Even generally soft music can have sudden loud moments. And if you play it, but let it stop when the piece ends, your child may notice the sudden absence of music and have trouble falling back to sleep without it. • Remove video games, media players, cellphones, computers and TVs from your child’s bedroom. Pretty obvious advice, I know, but you’d be surprised how often it’s not followed. • Position your child’s alarm clock so it faces away from the bed. This can be helpful if your child stresses out each time he sees that five more minutes have passed and he’s still awake. • Insist your child do his homework at a desk (or better yet, outside the bedroom), not in bed. When homework is done in bed, the associated

stress doesn’t go away just because the books are closed. Really, it’s the same advice I give adults with problems sleeping: Use the bed for sleeping, not for reading, watching TV or playing games. (If you regularly do these things in bed and think they help you fall asleep – and you don’t have trouble sleeping – please ignore my advice.) • Keep pets out of your child’s bedroom (and out of his bed). A great e-book about how to help your child fall asleep and stay asleep is “Successful Sleep Strategies for Kids” by Harvard Medical School’s Dr. Dennis Rosen. You can learn more on my website.

Lohan pleads not guilty

Things

Lindsay Lohan pleaded not guilty Tuesday to three misdemeanor charges related to a car crash and was ordered to appear in court for a hearing later this month. Her plea was entered by her attorney Shawn Holley, who declined to comment after the hearing. Lohan was not required to attend. Superior Court Commissioner Jane Godfrey said the actress must appear at a Jan. 30 pretrial hearing. Lohan is charged with lying to police, reckless driving and obstructing police from performing their duties. Police suspect Lohan was driving her sports car when it slammed into a dump truck while she was on her way to the set of “Liz and Dick” in early June.

Winfrey: Armstrong interview will satisfy

‘American Idol’ bets on judges “American Idol” is facing a $36 million-plus question: Will that combined paycheck lavished on superstar judges Mariah Carey, Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban pay off in ratings? The newcomers have their work cut out for them whether they earn it with colorful feuding – ladies, you know who we’re talking about – or by discovering a singer who can charm America. The talent show, a TV groundbreaker when it debuted in 2002 despite a starless panel with Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul, needs every edge as its audience erodes and other contests emerge as challengers. “I think it’s actually a renewal [of ‘Idol’] every couple of years, and what you’re seeing now is this panel has reinvigorated the show,” said Mike Darnell, Fox president of alternative entertainment. NBC’s “The Voice,” one of the newcomers, enjoyed immediate success with brand-name panelists Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green and Adam Levine. But famous faces don’t guarantee a return, as Cowell’s “The X Factor” most recently proved. Britney Spears, whose lackluster performance failed to capitalize on buzz about her intriguing foray into live TV, split from the show last week. It was a $15 million lesson for all interested parties. But “American Idol,” returning 7 p.m. Wednesday with host Ryan Seacrest, has to make noise as it hits relative old age for a TV series, with its ratings still hefty but on a steady downward spiral.

Oprah Winfrey says she and her TV crew were “mesmerized and riveted” by some of Lance Armstrong’s answers during a 2½hour interview in which the cyclist acknowledged using performanceenhancing drugs. Describing Armstrong’s demeanor, Oprah Winfrey Winfrey says, “I felt that he was thoughtful, I thought that he was serious, I thought that he certainly had prepared for this moment. I would say that he met the moment.” She says she was “satisfied” with the answers.

Actor Edward Furlong remains jailed after being arrested Sunday on suspicion of domestic violence and for an outstanding felony warrant. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said Furlong was arrested in West Hollywood on suspicion of domestic violence battery. It is one of several cases the “Terminator 2” star is facing, including a felony domestic violence case in Beverly Hills and a contempt-of-court case in Los Angeles.

Disney unveils gaming franchise

Megan Fox: Marilyn was no role model

Captain Jack Sparrow driving Cinderella’s carriage? Mr. Incredible swinging the Queen of Hearts’ flamingo mallet? Sulley from “Monsters, Inc.” galloping around on Bullseye from “Toy Story”? Those are just a few of the silly scenarios that could become a virtual reality with “Disney Infinity,” a new endeavor from Disney combining a video game with a toy line. The Walt Disney Co. revealed plans Tuesday to launch what it’s billing as a new gaming platform that’s strikingly similar to Activision’s successful “Skylanders” franchise. “Infinity” will blend real-life toy figures depicting various Disney personalities with a sprawling virtual world where those same characters can do stuff like race cars, play

Instead of chasing fame, Megan Fox is running from it. The “Transformers” actress tells Esquire magazine she wanted to be like Marilyn Monroe and even has a tattoo of the late actress on her arm, but has now begun the process of having it removed. The 26-year-old says she read about Monroe’s “difficult life” where she had “all the potential in the world” that was wasted. Monroe, she says, “wasn’t reliable” and “almost wasn’t insurable.” She goes on to compare Lindsay Lohan to Monroe. Fox says she’s “not interested in following in those footsteps.” Fox now admires Ava Gardner who “was a broad” who spoke her mind and “had power.”
