Math teacher Jamie Buck poses for a portrait inside her classroom Tuesday at Prairie Ridge High School. Buck started an anti-bullying program in her classroom after one of her students committed suicide.

Local districts out ahead of new bullying law By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Jamie Buck knows there is no law that will stop bullying. Gov. Pat Quinn recently signed a law requiring school districts to provide bullying prevention and response systems, but Buck, a Prairie Ridge High School math teacher, is striving for more than a law that rein-

forces what most school districts already have. After losing a student a year and a half ago, Buck was inspired to get more involved in her students’ lives and help them build self-confidence. She started a program where she gives them a weekly challenge on Monday morning and saves time Friday to discuss whether they met the challenge and what they learned.

“Anti-bullying programs are about telling bullies not to be bullies, so we took a different approach,” Buck said. “I wanted to help my students be sure of who they are and confident in who they are so if they hear those [bullying] comments it won’t affect them.” Buck’s weeklong challenges include staying off social media, no cursing, smiling at people the students pass in the hall and

telling three adults they appreciate them. Buck said she was nervous when she first started the challenges, but the students have embraced them and it even helped repair one mother-daughter relationship. “Students are usually only concerned with how something can help or hurt their grades, so I wasn’t sure if they would do

WOODSTOCK – Standing before the judge and eyeing the prosecutor who once offered him immunity on first-degree murder charges, Shane Lamb called the attorney a “bully.” “You’re trying to bully me into taking [a plea deal for] something I didn’t do,” Lamb said, looking directly at Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs. Lamb, 30, rejected an offer from Combs, who also is chief of the State’s Attorney’s Criminal Division. A trial date was set for Nov. 3.

In other words, if McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather sentenced him to the maximum, he’d be eligible for release after 20 years. Agreeing to the deal could have potentially shaved 5½ years off the maximum sentence on the charge of an armed habitual criminal. Though a sentence would ultimately be up to Prather, the judge can consider Lamb’s criminal history, which includes attempted murder as a juvenile, and various drug and battery charges. Prather also presided over Mario Casciaro’s murder trials, in which Lamb’s testimony played

While his ruling sympathized with some of the party’s grievances, he said he could not put its executive candidates on the ballot by fiat and violate a signature requirement that past court cases have upheld as constitutional. He also chided the Greens for not taking the issue to court earlier, knowing the hurdles involved in getting on

The life cycle of the Comfyium Couchicus There’s something extraordinary about an old comfy couch (Scientific name: Comfyium Couchicus). No matter how many times the weed-wacker runs out of string, no matter how often you get caught chugging milk at the refrigerator, no matter how repeatedly your wife refuses a date night with you that starts with dinner at Popeye’s, your dependable commendable Comfyium Couchicus is always loyally awaiting you with open cushions. And that’s how it is with our current 30-year-old couch. Technically it is a camelback design with distinct turned legs, pleated arms and kiln-dried hardwood frame. But to me it is comfort wrapped in tender threadbare fabric surrounded by snuggy saggy springs. It’s the furniture equivalent of a large root beer float. I remember way back when we bought that couch in the ’80s. Since my wife studied interior design at the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts, I figured I’d let her take the lead. Besides, my evaluation of a couch begins with the price tag, peaks at a floor model discount and ends in free delivery.

LOTTERY

JUST HUMOR Michael Penkava Eventually she picked out a plaid beauty that we hoped would last through our four children. Well, believe it or not, it did that and more. The kids are gone and I was sinking into the depths of its cushions. It was like 20,000 Leagues Under the Upholstered Sea. But I didn’t mind that. It seemed that with more wear and tear, it was becoming ever more and more comfortable. Sure, my wife had added a quilt to hang on the back to cover the worn spots and tossed a few pillows to hide the holes on the arms, but that just gave it charm and character…the couch had the charm and I was the character. Recently, my wife had begun dropping hints that it was time to replace it. She said things like, “Michael, it’s time to replace the couch,” and “Michael, you look like a hobo lying there.” I think the hobo comment was less about the couch and more about me, but I was get-

ting the picture. She really wanted a new couch. Resigning myself to an eventual couch purchase, I began negotiating for the relocation of our old comfy one. “Honey, I think our old couch would look great in the basement.” “Michael, I think it would look great on the curb.” “We can’t do that … we’ve had it for 30 years.” “That’s exactly the point.” “I mean, that couch is like an old friend. You wouldn’t put an old friend out on the curb, would you?” “Michael, I’d have no problem putting one of your old friends out on the curb.” I was desperate. I needed to play my ace in the hole card. “Honey, I’ll make you a deal. You could have any couch you want if I can keep the old one.” “Any couch?” “Yep.” “Even a leather one from Restoration Hardware? I love the Lancaster Collection in Italian Berkshire Cocoa!” Geesh. She just pulled her ace in the hole card. Anything in that cat-

alog is wicked expensive. All I could do was call her bluff. “If that’s what you want, you can have it, because our old couch is that special to me. Oh, and so are you.” I thought that last part was a nice touch. Bluff called. I held my breath and waited. Would she still go for that high-priced Italian Coca Cola couch? “Michael, I was just kidding. We’ll go to the furniture store and I’m sure I’ll find something nice and reasonable.” Whew! So we went there and bought a new couch. Old Comfy went down to the basement to live out his retirement years, saved from the curb, thanks to one hobo’s plaid polyester love.

• Michael Penkava is a retired teacher who taught for 35 years at West Elementary School in Crystal Lake. He suggested to his wife that instead of a couch they just buy three Amish glider chairs and duct tape them together. She just shook her head and told him to go stand on the curb. He can be reached at mikepenkava@comcast.net.

CORRECTIONS & CLARIFICATIONS

A story on page A1 of Friday’s edition about the Illinois Green Party’s fight to get on the Nov. 4 ballot requires a clarification of state election law. All candidates, regardless of party, are required to get each page of petition signatures notarized. But the requirement is a greater burden for “new” parties under the law, because they require many more signatures than established ones. Accuracy is important to the Northwest Herald, and we want to correct mistakes promptly. Please call errors to our attention by phone, 815-459-4122; email, tips@nwherald.com; or fax, 815-459-5640.

CRYSTAL LAKE – With football season set to start, Crystal Lake South High School is ready to host another season as the legality of the expanded bleachers is still in question at the appellate court level. The $1.18 million bleacher expansion completed in August 2013 came under fire from nearby residents who said the structure was too close to their property lines and created privacy issues. Crystal Lake officials entered into a lawsuit against District 155 and argued the expansion should have gone through the city zoning process, which Judge Michael Chmiel agreed with in a December ruling. Chmiel had hoped to have a final resolution on the issue before the start of the school year and athletic events. But after District 155 appealed the decision, both sides agreed to suspend any enforcement of daily fines and are not requiring the district to enter the zoning process until a ruling is made by the appellate court, which could take up to six months.

Voters will have third-party D-47 official: New policy up for option for statewide offices approval at Sept. 15 board meeting • TERM LIMITS Continued from page A1

running candidates in two Illinois congressional districts and three for the Chicago area’s water reclamation district. “I remain hopeful that in future elections, voters throughout Illinois actually will select candidates – not ratify them,” Summers said. In 2006, gubernatorial candidate Rich Whitney received more than 10 percent of the vote, which for four years made the party “established” under state law and lowered the threshold for getting on the ballot. In 2010, Whitney only pulled 2.7 percent of the vote. Voters will have a third-party option for statewide offices – the Libertarian Party of Illinois survived a ballot challenge and its candidates for state executive offices and the U.S. Senate were certified Friday. The election board on Friday also removed other third-party and independent candidates over signature and party affiliation requirements. It rejected the entire Constitution Party slate after a successful challenge left it about 5,000 signatures short of the minimum. Chad Koppie, of

Gilberts, was removed as the party’s candidate for U.S. Senate. Among the independent candidates removed for governor and lieutenant governor Friday were Michael Hawkins and Kimberly Kusch, whose petition contained a total of two signatures. The term-limits amendment backed by Rauner was one of two citizen-led amendment initiatives that failed. An effort to propose a constitutional amendment to take the job of redrawing legislative districts out of the hands of lawmakers also was successfully challenged on legal grounds. But state lawmakers have put two proposed amendments on the ballot, one protecting voting rights and the other strengthening the rights of crime victims. Three more statewide advisory questions seek the public’s opinion on insurance coverage of contraception, raising the minimum wage and whether millionaires should pay a higher tax to fund education. Republican critics call the five total statewide questions a gimmick to increase Democratic voter turnout in the tight race between Rauner and Democratic incumbent Pat Quinn.

Reed maintains innocence • REED Continued from page A3 her testimony revealed. When asking for leniency, Reed’s defense attorney Brian Erwin pointed out that the girl twice made allegations against Reed – in 2002, and again in 2006 – before coming forward with allegations that led to Reed’s 2012 arrest by McHenry police. Each time, the girl’s story changed, Er-

win said, and no charges were ever brought. “This is the fifth version of events that’s coming out,” Erwin said. In a statement before the court, Reed, who is married, maintained his innocence. “I did not do, nor would I ever do, the terrible, monstrous things that [the victim] accused me of,” Reed said. “… My hope is to be reunited with my family and my wife as soon as possible.”

• BULLYING Continued from page A1 these challenges, but I haven’t heard one negative comment,” Buck said. “It’s been validating for me ... and this year there are going to be more teachers involved.” Buck’s program goes well beyond the requirements of Quinn’s law, which requires school districts to develop policies that include a definition of bullying, procedures for the reporting of bullying, parental notification, the investigation of reports of bullying and actions that may be taken. While those formal procedures have been in place at Community High School District 155 for a long time, district spokesman Jeff Puma said programs such as Buck’s have become more popular in recent years. Groups such as Random

“We rely on the families of students to collaborate with us. It is through this collaboration with parents, families, and the community as a whole that we will see an increase in students’ self-worth and self-esteem.” Kathy Hinz District 47 superintendent

Acts of Kindness, where students worked together to complete acts of kindness toward their peers or staff, and Students Overcoming Stigmas, where students educate peers on teen depression through use of anonymous personal testimonials, have helped reduce bullying, Puma said.

But the issue still surfaces for districts that try to eliminate it. In Crystal Lake School District 47 last year, a Hannah Beardsley student was the victim of an attack in a hallway altercation that left him with a broken clavicle. Superintendent Kathy Hinz said those serious incidents always lead to reviews of policies as does the introduction of a new law. She said an updated policy would be up for approval at the Sept. 15 board meeting. Hinz said programs such as Character Counts and Rachel’s Challenge also are important in the district’s bullying prevention, which requires community-wide involvement. “We rely on the families of students to collaborate with us,” Hinz said of preventing bullying. “It is through this collaboration with parents, families, and the community as a whole that we will see an increase in students’ self-worth and self-esteem.”

Lamb remains in custody in McHenry County Jail in lieu of $300,000 bond • LAMB Continued from page A1 a large part in convicting Casciaro of first-degree murder for the 2002 death of a Johnsburg teen. In that case, McHenry County prosecutors, including Combs, offered Lamb full immunity from murder charges and a reduced sentence on drug charges if he provided testimony that in 2013 ultimately led to a murder conviction on the decade-old murder case. Lamb testified that in

2002, Casciaro sent him to collect on a drug debt from 17-year-old Brian Carrick. Lamb punched the teen, which is the last time anyone has reported seeing him. Carrick’s body was never recovered and he is presumed dead. Casciaro is currently serving a 26-year prison sentence for the murder. His family has retained high-profile attorney Kathleen Zellner for his appeal. In the latest case, authorities don’t believe Lamb acted alone to remove the 800-pound safe from John

Farenzena’s condo. Part of the deal rested on Lamb providing attorneys information on other individuals believed to be involved in the alleged residential burglary and the whereabouts of the guns. Friday’s courtroom outburst was rare for Lamb, who never has made eye contact with Farenzena, or Bill Carrick, Brian’s father. Both attend Lamb’s every court appearance, which typically are brief.

The district faced up to $1,000 per day fines for violating city ordinances, although city attorneys have said they would not necessarily pursue that even if the stay on enforcement was lifted. District spokesman Jeff Puma confirmed the district would hold football games and events at the stadium at the start of the year and until there is a final decision from the courts.

Dan Trueblood looks for the closest golf ball to the hole after a helicopter dropped the balls Friday during the Bull Valley Police Department’s third annual golf outing at Boone Creek Golf Club in Bull Valley. The annual all-day event featured an auction, dinner, music, golf games and contests while benefiting the restoration of the historic Stickney House.

BULL VALLEY

Golf outing raises money for Stickney House restoration By ALLISON GOODRICH agoodrich@shawmedia.com BULL VALLEY – A helicopter circled three times about 100 feet above Boone Creek Golf Course before hovering to let its passenger release a bundle of numbered golf balls. The second annual helicopter ball drop marked the beginning of the third annual Bull Valley Police Department Golf Outing, a charity for historic building restoration. Ball number 77, bought by

Mark Finn of Lakewood, was found to be closest to the hole, garnering a $250 cash prize. After paying to participate and putting money down for one of the 100 falling golf balls, Finn said he chose number 77 – the year he married his wife, Debbie. “We figured it’d be a lucky number,” Debbie Finn said with a smile. “I guess it was.” Co-hosted by the police department and the Stickney House Foundation, the golf outing is one of four charity events

organized by the foundation throughout the year, said president Nicole Horn. “What we try to do is raise money for restoring historic homes throughout McHenry County,” Horn said. “Specifically, the charity today is for restoring the Stickney House.” Dating back to the 1840s, the Stickney House now serves as the village hall and home to the police department. Horn said the outing last year raised about $10,000 for

historic restoration, so this year’s goal was $15,000. “We work on fundraising as well as education and outreach to let communities know we’re trying to save historic barns, historic homes and historic commercial buildings,” she said. “And to save some of our heritage in McHenry County and Lake County.” Major sponsors for the event were Donahue & Walsh P.C. and Gary Lang Auto Group, both out of McHenry.

SKETCH VIEW

More access for 3rd-party candidates The Northwest Herald Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs down: To news that Green Party candidates for statewide office won’t be included on the November ballot in Illinois, but particularly to the archaic rules that make it extremely difficult for independent or minority party candidates to appear on any ballots. It’s time to level the playing field a bit for these candidates since few believe the two-party system has left us in political utopia. Thumbs up: To all of the coaches, athletes, administrators and community members that have taken part in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. The large number of people involved nationally has helped ALS charities break fundraising records locally and nationally, and McHenry County has had plenty of people play their part. Thumbs down: To the infighting on the Holiday Hills Village Board that has led to some trustees asking for their own lawyer. The suspension and ultimate resignation of the small village’s part-time police chief has been a hotbutton issue, with Village President Dan Drury changing the locks at the village offices the day after then-Chief Larry Mason resigned. These trust issues need to be quickly worked out. Thumbs up: To the imminent opening of the Algonquin Western Bypass. The transportation project has been years in the making and finally is scheduled to open to motorists next week. Although there are skeptics, the bypass should help traffic congestion in downtown Algonquin. When including all of the necessary land acquisition and other prep work, the project is estimated to have cost $88 million.

ANOTHER VIEW

Paying terrorist ransoms The public slaughter of American journalist James Foley by the Islamic State has raised wrenching questions about the U.S. government’s long-standing policy of refusing to pay ransoms to terrorists. Yet what really deserves scrutiny is the willingness of European governments to meet such demands. It’s no exaggeration to say that the millions of dollars in ransoms paid to the Islamic State effectively subsidized Foley’s kidnapping and execution, not to mention the terrorists’ swath of death and destruction across Syria and Iraq. If the U.S. and its allies are to defeat the Islamic State and other terrorist groups, they will have to reconcile their approaches to the metastasizing threat of kidnapping for ransom. Its dimensions are sobering: The U.S. Treasury Department has called kidnapping for ransom “today’s most significant source of terrorist financing”; ransoms paid to al-Qaida and its direct affiliates since 2008 amount to about $165 million. A separate accounting by the New York Times put the total for last year alone at $66 million. The willingness of governments to pay for their citizens’ release has only upped terrorist demands, with deadly results. So far, most of the international community has yet to live up to pledges made through the United Nations in 2009 and the Group of Eight in 2013 not to pay ransoms. Two exceptions have been the U.S. and Britain. Although that stance has resulted in the murder of people such as Foley and Edwin Dyer, a 61-year-old British citizen killed by al-Qaida in 2009, it has also made U.S. and British citizens less lucrative, and thus less frequent, targets. By contrast, the Times estimates that nations such as France, Austria, Spain and Switzerland account for more than half of those taken captive by alQaida and its affiliates in the past five years. More ransoms just lead to more kidnappings: This spring, four French and two Spanish journalists were released by the Islamic State after their governments paid ransoms through intermediaries. But in recent days, the jihadist group seized four more foreigners near Aleppo: two Italians, a Dane and a Japanese national. Paying a ransom to a terrorist group always will be tempting, especially to governments that want to be able to reassure their citizens about their safety. But every euro paid to save a hostage’s life potentially goes to capture or kill another. That’s a recipe for perpetual mayhem. Unlike the U.S., very few countries are capable of responding to this threat militarily. They may feel they have no alternative but to buy their way out. If they do, they owe full disclosure, not elaborate subterfuges and craven evasions, to their citizens and allies. Better yet would be for the civilized nations of the world to resolve not to meet such ransom demands, as well as band together to exact a cost on those who make them. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization has been at the forefront of the fight against terrorist groups identified by the U.N. Is it too much to ask that, as champions of collective security, NATO’s members swear off ransom payments that serve only to endanger the lives and interests of all its members? Bloomberg View

IT’S YOUR WRITE Evil running wild To the Editor: “The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear?” (Psalm 27:1) Evil exists and, if permitted, will destroy. Visibly, this cancer is running wild through the Middle East. It quietly sneaks over our unsecured borders from Mexico. What is more dangerous to us is the evil that exists inside our country. We are losing respect for the truth, our laws, individual life, neighbor’s property and personal responsibility. Evil actions have become accept-

able to many on the left, tolerated by many on the right and endorsed by a few of our clergy. Convenient abortions, gay parades and samesex marriages grab the newspaper headlines. But a president who consistently lies to the American people, renowned civil rights leaders who stir up racism at every opportunity and innocent kids in Chicago being murdered every week we allow to continue. What is happening? Is it that we cannot discern between good and evil? Or is it that we prefer evil over good? President Obama and those like him in government

to the light, lest his deeds be exposed” (John 3:20). Sounds like self-examination time. Jim Doll Huntley

Virginia’s ex-governor wages his last campaign RICHMOND, Va. – Bob McDonnell arrived Monday at the federal courthouse in Richmond, a few blocks from the mansion he once occupied as Virginia governor, to finally present his defense on charges of corruption. Shorn of the security detail and large staff he once enjoyed, and about 20 pounds lighter, he looked vulnerable. “I haven’t seen you since you took over chairmanship of the Republican Governor’s Association,” I said by way of reintroduction. “That was a long time ago,” he said. “I have a few more gray hairs.” It was only 2012, but it does seem like a lifetime since McDonnell was a rising star among Republican governors, who frequently campaigned with presidential nominee Mitt Romney and was a potential presidential candidate himself. Now McDonnell spends his days in court as one witness after another says he and his wife, Maureen, took $177,000 in cash and gifts from Jonnie R. Williams Sr., chief executive officer of supplement maker Star Scientific, who wanted the governor’s help in introducing and getting approval for its nutritional product Anatabloc. To defend himself, McDonnell is using his wife as a human shield, claiming she had a crush on Williams, who manipulated her with gifts. To that end, his major defense witness Monday, former Secretary of the Commonwealth Janet Kelly, called Maureen McDonnell “difficult, demanding and diva-ish.” The former first lady has gone from a paragon of family values whose husband adored her to Lady Macbeth bringing disgrace to their doorstep. Kelly was so emotional in her defense of the “Boy Scout” she worked

VIEWS Margaret Carlson for since she was at Pat Robertson’s Regent University, the judge stopped the proceedings until a clerk could find a box of Kleenex. You use what you have. McDonnell doesn’t have the moxie of the three other governors now in the crosshairs of one investigation or another. Texas Governor Rick Perry leads with his new “Mad Men” eyewear and swagger. Hours after he was indicted for vetoing state funds to the Public Integrity Unit, he went on TV to explain that he did so after District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg, who was arrested on drunken-driving charges and behaved so badly she was fitted with a spit guard by police, refused to resign. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo went mean, scowling and threatening, insisting that the commission he set up to investigate corruption in state government wasn’t authorized to investigate him. It was within his authority to disband the commission he created. As for New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, he was born to fight. Bravado and the slow machinery of multiple investigations keep him swinging. McDonnell is white bread compared to these others, an archconservative who wrote a thesis about women staying in the kitchen and proposed legislation that would have them undergo vaginal probes before an abortion. Except for taking his nondescript glasses on and off and smoothing his immovable helmet of hair, he doesn’t react even when his wife is savaged. He allowed after the first day

of his defense that he found the description of his wife “troubling,” but his whole defense is dependent on the jury buying that they were so estranged he had no idea about the Williams relationship and the swag that came with it, although a pricey leather bag of golf clubs Williams gave McDonnell sits near the jury box as a reminder that he might have. The crazy wife defense is two-pronged and could serve to get her off as well if the jury swallows it: Nothing “official” was done for Williams in return for his largess. Maureen McDonnell’s acts, however greedy and ill-advised, are unofficial and not actionable. Kelly followed the defense playbook almost perfectly. The governor asked no one to do anything for Williams (three Cabinet secretaries would later say the same thing). McDonnell knew nuttin’ about nuttin’ but simply showed up to meet the demands of a schedule put together by others. He was cordial to Williams only insofar as he was “Bob for Jobs,” a cheerleader for any business that could hire Virginians. All the defense witnesses crying over an unstable spouse burdening a busy husband and staff who barely knew Williams might not be enough to overcome some smoking guns summed up by the prosecution on Friday. The day after the McDonnells drove Williams’ Ferrari convertible back to the mansion from a weekend at Williams’ vacation house, Williams got a much sought after meeting with a top aide to secretary of health and human resources, who went reluctantly at the “governor’s request.” It was only after the governor learned of the investigation that the governor faxed revisions to a federal credit union loan application

reflecting as a liability, for the first time, $120,000 in loans from Williams (one for $20,000 took one phone call from the governor to Williams) which the prosecution calls evidence of “fraud and concealment.” He also rushed to give back the Oscar de la Renta gown, the engraved Rolex and the clubs in the corner of the courtroom. While Mr. McDonnell chats politely in the hallway, there’s a steely inscrutability to the silent Mrs. McDonnell that deepens the mystery of whether she’s on board for this defense. The McDonnells are being tried together but have separate counsel. Maureen McDonnell reportedly lives in the couple’s house; no one knows if Bob McDonnell lives there in “War of the Roses” mode. Kelly gave a clue when her effort to paint the pair as cold to each other inadvertently revealed that, as recent as late spring, the two were entertaining friends at dinner in the family house. Happy couples are cold to each other under pressure of getting food to the table. It’s a long way from that to a husband signing on to a defense that throws his wife and mother of his five children to the wolves unless she’s in on it. This case, unlike others that have gotten governors in trouble recently, confirms the fear of the public that the rich are different from you and me. A main argument – that all the gifts were for naught in that Williams didn’t ultimately get the approval he sought–- eats away at the already shaky confidence people have in their public officials. Failure should be no defense. Whether or not they succeed, those with money get in the door that’s closed to those without. • Margaret Carlson is a Bloomberg View columnist.

STATE SATURDAY By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Department of Transportation circumvented rules devised to keep politics out of state jobs and improperly hired more than 250 people in the last decade, accelerating the practice under Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn, the state’s top investigator decreed in a report released Friday. Executive Inspector General Ricardo Meza reported that IDOT’s use of “staff assistants” to skirt anti-patronage guidelines began in 2003 under former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who’s serving a federal prison term for political corruption. But it noted the number of hires jumped from 52 in 2008 to 104 in 2011, the first two years after Quinn, now locked in a tight battle for re-election in November, took over for the ousted Blagojevich. The report said investigators found no evidence that Quinn or his staff members were aware of impropriety, but former IDOT Secretary Ann Schneider, who resigned in June as heat grew on the administration over the hiring issue, said recommendations for agency hires came from Quinn’s office. The “vast majority” of hires “were chosen from those recommended to me or my staff by the governor’s office,” Schneider said in her response to the report. “... Neither I nor my staff were in a position to reject the recommended positions.” Spokesman Grant Klinzman acknowledged that Quinn’s office suggests applicants for eligible jobs, but he said the governor expects them to be hired according to the rules. “The Governor’s Office’s expectation and understand-

ing is, has been, and always will be that any candidate who is ultimately hired is doing the work of the position that candidate is filling,” Klinzman said. The mammoth report, which followed a three-year investigation, laid out a Byzantine process by which relatives, political supporters and friends of officeholders were hired as staff assistants, a job the agency declared it could fill without publicly posting it and offering interviews to any qualified candidate. In many instances, those employees were then transferred – again without an interview – into jobs covered by the hiring rules, making it more difficult to remove them. “The duration and pervasiveness of IDOT’s improper acts have undoubtedly denied countless qualified candidates the opportunity to lawfully obtain state employment on the basis of merit,” the report said. Quinn trumped the release Friday’s report on Thursday by trotting out acting Transportation Secretary Erica Borggren to briefly tell reporters in Chicago – without mentioning the forthcoming report – that IDOT had decided to lay off the 58 current staff assistants at the agency, create a review board to oversee hiring, and freeze indefinitely the creation of any new positions that can be filled without strings. That wasn’t sufficient for Quinn’s challenger in the November election, Republican Bruce Rauner, who in a prepared statement said Illinois residents “pay a significant corruption tax,” adding that the patronage revelations “are just one more reminder why we need term limits on career politicians like Pat Quinn.”

Quinn announces $3.8M for Ill. community college

AP photo

With children and others as a backdrop Friday, Gov. Pat Quinn announces $3.8 million in capital investments in Lewis and Clark Community College in Godfrey. The heat and humidity apparently took a toll on two children, one who collapsed to the pavement right next to the governor and was carried away by a member of his security detail, and another girl who had to sit down, cool down and rest. The money will be used to construct a new Montessori Childcare and School, a new maintenance building and control storm water runoff.

Two parolees charged after standoff in Harvey The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Both suspects in this week’s nearly 21-hour hostage situation in a Chicago suburb are parolees, and one is a convicted murderer who was under electronic monitoring. At a court appearance Friday, bond was set at $2.5 million for 41-year-old Peter Williams of Chicago and at $2 million for 40-year-old David Jordan of Dixmoor. They were charged with attempted murder, sexual assault, home invasion and aggravated kidnapping in the taking of eight hostages, including six children. Cook County prosecutors said the men knocked on the door of a home in Harvey on Tuesday, offering to mow the lawn, then barged inside and demanded $50,000. During the overnight standoff with

“Two individuals attempted to commit a crime that went horribly wrong for them.” Denard Eaves Harvey acting police chief

police that followed, one of the women who was a hostage was sexually assaulted three or four times, prosecutors said. Negotiators talked with the suspects, who requested cigarettes and safe passage, and released some of the children. A SWAT team eventually swarmed the home, escorted the remaining hostages to safety and took the suspects into custody Wednesday morning. Jordan, a convicted mur-

derer, was under electronic monitoring, according to the Illinois Department of Corrections. He was sentenced in 1992 to 47 years and released last year under requirements of the law at the time of sentencing, corrections department spokesman Tom Shaer said. Jordan was not part of any early-release program, Shaer said, and was near the end of his first of three years of parole. Records show he was a “generally compliant” parolee without violations worthy of tightening his restrictions, Shaer said. He was authorized to leave his home daily until 3 p.m. to search for a job. When he didn’t return home on time on Tuesday, the electronic monitoring system triggered a notice that came in at 3:01 p.m. By that time, the suspects were already barricaded in-

side the home. Harvey acting Police Chief Denard Eaves said Friday that, as the incident began, one of the suspects tried to flee, using a female hostage as a human shield, and fired at officers before retreating into the home. One officer’s arm was broken by a gunshot and another officer was grazed by a bullet. A resident who escaped told police the suspects were armed with three handguns, Eaves told reporters. “Two individuals attempted to commit a crime that went horribly wrong for them,” Eaves said, adding he didn’t know why the home was targeted. Counseling has been provided to the victims, Eaves said. “The timeframe, 21 hours being held against your will, it would be emotional to anyone,” he said.

Unions want expedited ruling in pensions suit

SPRINGFIELD – A coalition of labor unions and state retirees is asking a judge for an expedited ruling in a case challenging the constitutionality of Illinois’ pension law. Attorneys filed the motion in Sangamon Circuit Court Thursday. They want Judge

John Belz to factor in a Supreme Court decision that found health insurance premiums were a protected retirement benefit for state workers. The groups said the same issue is central to their suit over the pension law, which increases employee contributions and reduces benefits. The parties will appear in court Sept. 4.

earlier this month. Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office spokesman Steve Campbell said Sergio Vicenteno is charged with aggravated battery in the Aug. 1 attack in Chicago. He has not entered a plea. Vicenteno’s attorney, Michael Gillespie, told The Associated Press on Friday that the construction worker did not attack the other men but defended himself. Prosecutors said Vicenteno bit one man’s shin. When Ben Lenet, a friend of the man who was attacked, intervened Vicenteno bit Lenet’s arm and drew blood.

Lenet said he is taking antibiotics and has been tested for hepatitis and HIV. Cage-Free Sleepovers • Dog Daycare • Grooming • Training • Self-Dog-Wash

Borders won’t hinder fight vs. extremists

The ASSOCIATED PRESS

AP photo

Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes (right), accompanied by Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz (left), faces reporters Friday during a press briefing in Edgartown, Mass., on the island of Martha’s Vineyard. Rhodes spoke on issues concerning the situation in Iraq, Syria and Ukraine. their supply lines, command and control centers and economic assets inside Syria “is at the crux of the decision” for Obama. The risk of “getting sucked into a new war” is outweighed, he said, by the risk of inaction. To hit back at the group, Obama has stressed military assistance to Iraq and efforts to create a new, inclusive government in Baghdad that can persuade Sunnis to leave the insurgency. He also has sought to frame the Islamic State threat in terms that persuade other countries – not just in the Mideast but also in Europe – of the need to create a broad coalition against the extremists. Lukman Faily, the Iraqi

ambassador to Washington, said in an interview this week that Baghdad’s new leadership has been told to expect additional military help once the new government is seated, possibly in early September. But an Iraqi counteroffensive may yield only temporary gains if the Islamic State retreats to areas of Syria beyond the government’s control. “The U.S. can’t defeat the Islamic State terrorist army in Iraq if it does not strike its leadership and core base in Syria simultaneously,” said Oubai Shahbandar, a Washington-based senior strategist for the Western-backed opposition Syrian National Coalition group. “A real strategy requires linkage of the military effort in Iraq with Syria,”

he said. Rhodes said the U.S. was “actively considering what’s going to be necessary to deal with that threat.” Speaking on the Massachusetts island of Martha’s Vineyard, where Obama is on vacation, Rhodes said: “We’ve shown time and again that if there’s a counterterrorism threat, we’ll take direct action against that threat, if necessary.” The recent execution of journalist James Foley could be seen as a turning point in a long-running battle against the group, whose origins are in an al-Qaida offshoot that U.S. forces faced in Iraq several years ago, he said. Foley’s killing, he added, was “an attack on our country.”

West condemns Russia over Ukraine convoy LUHANSK, Ukraine – Tensions between Russia and Ukraine escalated sharply on Friday as Moscow sent more than 130 trucks rolling across the border in what it said was a mission to deliver humanitarian aid. Ukraine called it a “direct invasion,” and the U.S. and NATO condemned it as well. In another ominous turn

in the crisis, NATO said it has mounting evidence that Russian troops are operating inside Ukraine and launching artillery attacks from Ukrainian soil – significantly deeper involvement in the fighting than the West has previously alleged. The trucks, part of a convoy of 260 vehicles, entered Ukraine without government permission after being held up at the border for a week

amid fears that the mission was a Kremlin ploy to help the pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine. By late afternoon, trucks had reached the city of Luhansk, whose war-reduced population of a quarter-million people has suffered under intense fighting over the past several weeks between Ukrainian forces and the separatists. Russia said the white-

tarped vehicles were carrying food, water, generators and sleeping bags. Some of the trucks were opened to reporters a few days ago, and at least some of those items could be seen. But Associated Press journalists following the convoy across rough country roads heard the trucks’ contents rattling and sliding around Friday, suggesting many vehicles were only partially loaded.

BAGHDAD – Gunmen attacked a Sunni mosque during Friday prayers and killed at least 64 people, prompting Sunni lawmakers to withdraw from talks on forming a new, more inclusive government capable of confronting the Islamic extremists who have overrun large swaths of Iraq. It was not immediately clear if the attack was carried out by Shiite militiamen or insurgents of the Islamic State group, who have been advancing into mixed Sunni-Shiite areas in volatile Diyala province and have been known to kill fellow Sunni Muslims who refuse to submit to their harsh interpretation of Islamic law. However, Sunni lawmakers quickly blamed the carnage on powerful Shiite militias out to avenge an earlier bombing, and two major Sunni parliamentary blocs pulled out of talks on forming a new Cabinet. The move creates a major hurdle for prime minister-designate Haider al-Abadi as he struggles to reach out to disaffected Sunnis to form a government that can confront the Islamic State extremists. Both al-Abadi and outgoing Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki condemned the attack and called for an investigation. The onslaught on the Mus-

ab bin Omair Mosque in the village of Imam Wais began with a suicide bombing near its entrance, followed by a raid by gunmen who stormed the building, opening fire on worshippers, security officials said. Iraqi security forces and Shiite militiamen raced to the scene to reinforce security but stumbled on bombs planted by the militants, which allowed the gunmen to flee, according to officials in Imam Wais, 75 miles northeast of Baghdad. At least 64 people were killed, including four Shiite militiamen, and more than 60 people were wounded, according to medical officials. All officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief the media. In pointing the finger at Islamic State fighters, village officials said the Sunni extremists have been pressuring two prominent Sunni tribes in the area – the Oal-Waisi and al-Jabour – to join them, but so far they have refused. However, local Sunni lawmakers in Diyala province blamed Shiite militiamen for what they said was a revenge attack for a bombing earlier Friday. In that attack, a roadside bomb hit the convoy of a local Shiite militia leader, wounding three of his bodyguards, Sunni lawmaker Raad al-Dahlaki said. He said the militia leader survived, and out for revenge, entered the mosque along with fellow Shiite gunmen and opened fire.

WASHINGTON – The United States has avoided military involvement in Syria’s threeyear-civil war thus far. Faced with an Islamist extremist group making gains across the region and the beheading an American journalist, the Obama administration’s resistance may be weakening. The White House said Friday the president has received no military options beyond those he authorized earlier this month for limited airstrikes in Iraq and military aid to Iraqi and Kurdish forces. But a top adviser raised the possibility of a broader American military campaign that targets the Islamic State group’s bases in Syria, saying the U.S. would take whatever action is necessary to protect national security. “We’re not going to be restricted by borders,” said Ben Rhodes, President Barack Obama’s deputy national security adviser. Rhodes spoke a day after Obama’s top military adviser warned the extremists cannot be defeated without “addressing” their sanctuary in Syria. Many prominent Republicans and some Democrats have called on Obama to hit back harder at the Islamic State. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., a prospective 2016 presidential candidate, said in an interview Friday that attacking

Ebola spreads in Nigeria Death toll reaches 1,427 in W. Africa The ASSOCIATED PRESS

Obama unveils new plan on birth control The ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON – Seeking to quell a politically charged controversy, the Obama administration announced new measures Friday to allow religious nonprofits and some companies to opt out of paying for birth control for female employees while still ensuring those employees have access to contraception. Even so, the accommodations may not fully satisfy religious groups who oppose any system that makes them complicit in providing coverage they believe is immoral. Effective immediately, the U.S. will start allowing faith-affiliated charities, colleges and hospitals to notify the government – rather than their insurers – that they object to birth control on religious grounds. A previous accommodation offered by the Obama administration allowed those nonprof-

its to avoid paying for birth control by sending their insurers a document called Form 700, which transfers responsibility for paying for birth control from the employer to the insurer. But Roman Catholic bishops and other religious plaintiffs argued just submitting that form was like signing a permission slip to engage in evil. In a related move, the administration announced plans to allow for-profit corporations like Hobby Lobby Inc. to start using Form 700. The Supreme Court ruled in June that the government can’t force companies like Hobby Lobby to pay for birth control, sending the administration scrambling for a way to ensure their employees can still get birth control one way or another at no added cost. The dual decisions mark the Obama administration’s latest effort to address a long-run-

ning conflict that has pitted the White House against churches and other religious groups. The dispute has sparked dozens of legal challenges, fueling an election-year debate about whether religious liberty should trump a woman’s access to health care options. “Today’s announcement reinforces our commitment to providing women with access to coverage for contraception, while respecting religious considerations raised by nonprofit organizations and closely held for-profit companies,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell. Yet the latest proposals will likely run up against the same objections, because they still enable employees to receive contraception through their health plans – one of a range of preventive services required under President Barack Obama’s health care law.

quarantined. The two new cases were quarantined two days ago while being tested, Chukwu said. They had previously been under surveillance, meaning they were contacted daily to see if they developed any symptoms, but their movements were not restricted. Once they showed signs of the disease, they were brought in. Authorities are now trying to identify and monitor everyone they have been in contact with. In all, 213 people are now under surveillance in Nigeria, including six people, all “secondary contacts” like the caregivers’ spouses, being monitored in the state of Enugu, more than 310 miles east of Lagos. A mobile laboratory capable of diagnosing the disease has been moved there, Chukwu said. Nigeria’s total of confirmed infections is now 16. Five of them have died and five have recovered; the rest are being treated in isolation in Lagos, the commercial capital where Sawyer’s flight landed.

ABUJA, Nigeria – Two alarming new cases of Ebola have emerged in Nigeria, widening the circle of people sickened beyond the immediate group of caregivers who treated a dying airline passenger in one of Africa’s largest cities. The outbreak also continues to spread elsewhere in West Africa, with 142 more cases recorded, bringing the new total to 2,615 with 1,427 deaths, the World Health Organization said Friday. Most of the new cases are in Liberia, where the government was delivering donated rice to a slum where 50,000 people have been sealed off from the rest of the capital in an attempt to contain the outbreak. New treatment centers in Liberia are being overwhelmed by patients that were not previously identified. One center with 20 beds

opened its doors to 70 possibly infected people, likely coming from “shadow-zones” where people fearing authorities won’t let doctors enter, the U.N health agency said. “This phenomenon strongly suggests the existence of an invisible caseload of patients who are not being detected by the surveillance system,” the agency said. This has “never before been seen in an Ebola outbreak.” The two new cases in Nigeria were infected by their spouses, both medical workers who had direct contact with Liberian-American Patrick Sawyer, who flew into Nigeria from Liberia and Togo and infected 11 others before he died in July. The male and female caregivers also then died of Ebola, Health Minister Onyebuchi Chukwu said Friday. Nigerian officials initially claimed the risk of exposure to others was minimal because Sawyer was whisked into isolation after arriving at the airport. Lagos state health commissioner Jide Idris later acknowledged that Sawyer was not immediately

Bears’ defense puts in disappointing effort Seahawks gained yards in chunks during 1st half

The Seattle Seahawks’ Marshawn Lynch (24) pushes aside the Bears’ Shea McClellin (50) as Lamarr Houston (99) watches Lynch’s touchdown run in the first half Friday in Seattle.

So what did we learn from the Bears’ all-important third preseason game against the defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks in Seattle? If in fact the Bears are a legitimate playoff threat for 2014, then the Seahawks are ready to defend their Super Bowl title. What was unclear is whether or not the Bears are actually a contender. The difference in class between Seattle and the Bears was obvious from the opening snap. The defending champs

‘Ready for the challenge’ Five to Watch Julio Arias, jr., F, Woodstock Arias was a central part of the Blue Streaks offense last season. The junior forward scored 16 goals, giving all defenses trouble. Coach Mike Golda said he was amazed at the ways Arias was able to keep poise at a young age and find the back of the net. Beau Meintz, sr., D, Marian Central Meintz is the rock of the Hurricanes’ defense. The versatile defender can be put anywhere on the field for coach Jim Colvin.

Marian Central to rely on experience By CHRIS CASEY ccasey@shawmedia.com

WOODSTOCK – Rebuilding is a part of sports that coaches don’t always love to deal with. For Marian Central boys soccer coach Jim Colvin, that will not be an issue this year. Marian Central will return 10 of its 11 starters from last season’s regional championship team that finished the season with a 12-7-1 record. “It’s huge for us,” Colvin said of having nearly his entire team back. “We already have so much of that chemistry of playing together and we all have that same goal.” The start of that goal will be to compete in a brand new conference. The Hurricanes will play in the East Suburban Catholic Conference, playing a variety of teams that both Colvin and the ‘Canes are unfamiliar with. “As unfamiliar as we are with new teams, it is also very exciting for us to go against new competition.” Marian Central finished in second place in their conference last season with a 7-1 record, losing to

Jose Gonzalez, sr., GK, Dundee-Crown Gonzalez was the netminder for a D-C team that had an undefeated regular season. Their season fell short of expectations, but there is no doubt that Gonzalez will be a tough one to get the ball past this year. Charlie Ruff, sr., MF, Crystal Lake South Ruff is the senior leader of a Gators team that will rely heavily on experience of its seniors. The senior midfielder can contribute on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball, and coach Brian Allen says can be a good mentor to newcomers on the right way to play the game.

Colvin knows Meintz will have a tough test, but if anyone can succeed, he

knows it’s him. “I’m ready for the challenge this year,” Meintz said. “I’m so excited to be playing with all of these guys again and we have so much potential. I can’t wait to get on the field and show everyone what we can do.”

Jereb learned from trip to Nicaragua Melanie Jereb has spent countless hours with her Creighton University volleyball teammates during her first two seasons on the Omaha, Nebraska, campus. But a journey of nearly 3,000 miles in the spring brought the athletes even closer. Coming off a season in which it advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament, Creighton embarked on an eight-day, three-city tour in May to Nicaragua, where the team played volleyball, went on sightseeing tours and Melanie Jereb performed several days of community service projects, which were especially rewarding. “We got to learn a lot more about each other,” said Jereb, a Cary-Grove graduate. “You got to see each other in a different light.” Among the team’s projects were donating school supplies, sports equipment and clothing at different locations and playing games, reading and teaching English to local children at schools. The experience offered a range of emotions, Jereb said, and allowed the team to see how few resources some families have in Nicaragua. “Some of our teammates were crying,” Jereb said. “Some had groups of kids around them, all laughing. You see what a difference school supplies, sports equipment and clothing can make to people. It was an amazing experience for us as a team.” This season, the Bluejays hope to experience another level of success. On Wednesday, Jereb and her teammates were voted the favorite to win the Big East Conference by the league’s coaches.

THE DAILY

Of particular concern was the play of Charles “Peanut” Tillman and Lance Briggs. While neither was the worst player on the field, both looked stale and slow. It’s possible that as 30-somethings, it is taking them a bit longer to play their way into shape. But it’s at least equally likely that, as aging defenders, they’re in the best shape they’re going to be in all year and it could only get worse from here.

Scott ran off four straight birdies in the middle of his round and finished with a tap-in birdie Friday for a 6-under 65 to share the 36-hole lead with Cameron Tringale at The Barclays.

Creighton opens season ranked No. 23 • ON CAMPUS Continued from page C1

The Bluejays received five of the league’s 10 first-place votes, edging Marquette, last season’s conference champion. Earlier this month, Creighton was the only Big East team among the American Volleyball Coaches Association’s preseason Top 25 poll, ranking No. 23. “We have a ton of experience, and you can feel that when we play,” said Jereb, a junior right-side hitter. “We want to be No. 1 in the Big East and win the conference tournament. And there’s no reason we can’t be in the Sweet 16 or Elite Eight and compete with those traditional powerhouses.” While helping the team to a 23-9 record and a runnerup finish in the Big East Tournament, Jereb contributed 1.62 kills and 2.41 digs a set, along with 22 service aces. Late in the season, she was moved across the court to the right-side hitter position, which continues to be an adjustment during preseason workouts. “I feel more comfortable on the other side because I’ve had 10 times more swings over there,” she said. “But I feel my [overall] offense has improved.” Moving to the right side has allowed specific sets to be tailored to her in the offense, said Jereb, one of 12 letterwinners returning this fall. Jereb also contributed 66 total blocks while helping the Bluejays lead the nation in that category with 3.06 a set. “It’s something we work on every single day,” Jereb said. “We have hand signals for blocking and plays for blocking. It works so well because we talk so much on the court.” Rosch earns All-MVC: CaryGrove grad Ashley Rosch earned one of six spots on the Missouri Valley Conference’s Preseason All-MVC volleyball team on Thursday. Rosch, a junior outside hitter at Illinois State, led the team in kills (389) and points (441.5) last season while helping her team to a 19-13 record. The Redbirds ranked third in a preseason poll of MVC coaches, earning three first-place votes. In her previous two seasons, Rosch has earned postseason All-MVC first-team honors and was the league’s Freshman of the Year in 2012.

Jimmy Colvin (right) tries to get past Connor Hull during Friday’s practice in Huntley.

Colvin stressed that the conference would be the first part of their goal, but there is no doubt about their main goal: a trip to the state tournament. Colvin said this team, coming off a regional championship, wants go to further. “I don’t want to talk state tournament this early in the season, but we have the group, we have the movitvation and we have the skill to have a team that can go that far.” As far as what Marian is looking for on the field, a big stress to their game is speed and width. The wider Marian is able to get the ball, the more they can spread out defenses and use their speed to their advantage. Liam Gries and Connor Hull are two players on the offensive side of the ball that opposing defenses will have to keep an eye on, while Meintz and crew will keep the ball away from goalkeeper Jake Higgins. “It all starts with the players,” Colvin said. “I can only coach and provide them with so much. If they do their job and play the way they are capable of, this team could do something very special.”

Team chemistry and concentrating on their strong points will be key for a team that lost a lot of players to graduation.

However, the Red Raiders lost many of their contributing players to graduation, including Niko Mihalopoulos, last year’s Player of the Year. Huntley will have big shoes to fill all over the field, but Grabner believes his team will be competitive and be ready for the challenge.

Eastland affirmed that expectations do not change with the conference, as they expect to compete at the highest level. Johnsburg has a goal to make a deep run into the playoffs.

Top newcomers: Nathan Saporta, jr., MF; Jake LaSota, fr., D. What to expect: Marengo will put a young, inexperienced team out on the field this year. With just two seniors, coach Jim McKinnon described this season as a learning curve. He is confident his group will back down from no challenge and will come to play each and every game. Richmond-Burton Coach: Casey DeCaluwe (fourth season) Last season’s record: 1-16-1 overall, 0-10 BNC East, (seventh) Top returners: Luis Perez, sr., GK; Brad Barrett, sr., MF; Ty Omark, jr., MF; Coby Delucia, jr., D; Luke Bilik, sr., D. Top newcomers: Tyler Cline, sr., D; Brennen Freiberger, fr., D; Kyle Townsend, fr., MF. What to expect: The Rockets have a group of multiple sport athletes that came out this year and a mix of young talent. Hard work will be necessary but DeCaluwe believes R-B will have a competitive side. EAST SUBURBAN CATHOLIC Marian Central Coach: Jim Colvin (second season) Last season’s record: 12-7-1 overall, 7-1 Suburban Christian Conference (second) Top returners: Beau Meintz, sr., D; Liam Gries, sr., F; Connor Hall, sr., F; Bryan Hart, jr., MF; Jake Higgins, jr., GK; Gavin Sell, jr., MF. Key newcomers: Josh Smith, so., MF; Connor Stiscak, so., D; Jacob Klaus, so., F; Jimmy Colvin, so., D. What to expect: The Hurricanes finished second in their conference and won a regional championship last season. With all but one starter returning and a talented group of sophomores joining last year’s team, Marian expects to make a strong run in both their conference and the state tournament.

GOEBBERT WATCH

Yankees rally to beat Sox

FRIDAY AT ARIZONA San Diego’s Jake Goebbert, a Hampshire High School graduate, started at first in the Padres’ 5-1 loss to Arizona on Friday. Goebbert went 0 for 3 to drop his batting average to .269.

By HOWIE RUMBERG The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Martin Prado hit an RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning Friday, lifting the New York Yankees to a 4-3 victory over the White Sox. Facing a full-count pitch from Daniel Webb (5-4) with the bases loaded, Prado lined a hit up the middle to complete the Yankees’ comeback from three runs for their fourth win in 11 games. Prado hit a two-run homer in the third, and Jacoby Ellsbury had an RBI double in the fifth off John Danks after the Sox’s Jose Abreu connected for a three-run shot in the first against Shane Greene. Ichiro Suzuki started the ninth with a single and advanced on a sacrifice. After Derek Jeter lined out, Webb intentionally walked Ellsbury and walked Mark Teixeira before Prado’s hit touched off a celebration near second base. David Robertson (2-4) struck out two in a perfect ninth. The Sox (59-69) fell a season-high 10 games under .500. After saying Cuban ballplayers admired the Yankees growing up because of their success, Abreu impressed New York with his 33rd homer in the first at-bat of his career at Yankee Stadium. Two innings later, Danks gave up Prado’s long ball, his AL-leading 24th homer given up. The right-hander allowed three runs, upping his total to a league-high 87, in five-plus innings. Greene recovered nicely after yielding three straight hits to start the game, including Abreu’s homer. He gave up a career-high nine hits in fiveplus innings and struck out seven.

CUBS 4, ORIOLES 1

Consistent Arrieta downs old team By BRIAN SANDALOW Chicago Sun-Times CHICAGO – Jake Arrieta hasn’t forgotten his time with the Baltimore Orioles. Instead of simply moving on from that part of his career, the Cubs righty still draws on both the positive and negative experiences he had in Baltimore. It was clear during Friday’s 4-1 win over the Orioles those years haven’t been wasted. “You think about it all the time. That’s just part of my development. Those years still are very important to me, for a lot of reasons,” Arrieta said. “Regardless of how certain situations went – negatively or positively – they all impacted my career in a certain way.” In July of last year, Baltimore traded Arrieta to the Cubs with Pedro Strop and two international signing slots for Scott Feldman and Steve Clevenger. The deal was the end of an up-and-down four years with the Orioles for Arrieta, who went

from a 2012 Opening Day starter to a piece of a trade for another pitcher after struggling with consistency and his control. Those problems seem to have been fixed with the Cubs. “He’s just being more consistent. He always has [had] the good stuff,” Strop said. “It’s just being consistent and he’s being focused on what he needs to do.” By the time he was traded to the Cubs last year, Arrieta was 20-25 with a 5.46 ERA lifetime with the Orioles and languishing in Class AAA, needing of a change of scenery. He got it, and has matured into the Cubs’ best starter, lowering his ERA this year to 2.53 with a seven-inning, one-run outing that started with him retiring the first 13 batters he faced. “I’m thankful for those times over there, those years there and I’ll continue to use them for future reference, to reach back in the memory bank and think about certain times and certain situations that I had there that I have now and how I react

and handle those,” Arrieta said. “I think about it a lot.” That deal’s impact was easy to think about Friday. The Orioles got three months from Feldman before he left for the Houston Astros in free agency over the offseason, with Clevenger currently in Class AAA. The Cubs, meanwhile, picked up a potential long-term piece of the rotation in Arrieta and a middle-reliever in Strop with a 2.40 ERA that pitched a scoreless eighth on Friday. Orioles manager Buck Showalter said he saw the positives coming for Arrieta and Strop after the deal, one he called “a good trade” that worked out for both teams. “At the time, I told Jake and Pedro this is a great move for both you guys,” Showalter said. “They did some great things for us and we’re very appreciative of it. They handled themselves very professionally, good teammates and the Cubs are going to like them for a long while.”

What we learned Observations from the Bears’ game against the Seattle Seahawks on Friday in the third preseason game:

Conte defense’s lone bright spot, suffers concussion

The Bears’ Danny McCray (29) knocks down Seattle Seahawks’ Jermaine Kearse in the first half of a preseason game Friday in Seattle. The Bears allowed 31 unanswered points in the first half en route to a loss to the Seahawks. The Bears will close out the preseason Thursday in Cleveland.

for 174 yards, good for a passer rating of 147.7, picking apart the Bears’ defense by moving outside the pocket and finding the No safety did anything to “wow” the open receiver. That helped the Seahawks coaching staff in the first two preseason games, and that had to be music to Chris convert all seven of the third downs prior Conte’s ears, as the maligned safety made to halftime.

The Seahawks scored 31 points in the Flags keep flying first half and gained 250 total yards. Marc Trestman has not been happy Russell Wilson completed 13-of-17 passes

about the penalties this preseason, and the Bears had three bad ones in the first half from veterans. Lance Briggs’ late hit penalty on Russell Wilson – it would have been a third-and-15, instead, the Seahawks got a first down. On third-andfour, Jeremiah Ratliff jumped offsides, and Brandon Marshall’s offensive pass interference wiped out a Dante Rosario touchdown.

Shea McClellin has made no progress whatsoever. I focused on him exclusively on Seattle’s first two touchdown drives and he appears to be the opposite of instinctive and on several occasions, including specifically Marshawn Lynch’s 7-yard touchdown on the Seahawks’ opening drive. On that play, McClellin was incapable of changing direction. Jon Bostic struggled almost as badly in pass coverage in the nickel and Lamarr Houston and Jeremiah Ratliff offered little comfort they’ll be any more effective versus the run than the Bears’ defensive front was last year. Willie Young was a bright

spot and it was interesting to watch Mel Tucker rotate his rookie tackles, Ego Ferguson and Will Sutton, in as a tandem with the first-team defense. Ferguson actually made a couple of plays. The offense wasn’t a whole lot better than the defense but, in all fairness, the Seattle “D” offers a much stiffer test than their offense does. What I found most puzzling is whether or not coach Marc Trestman has decided to rest his ground game until midseason or so, or if he’s just that confident in it that he’s leaving it on the bench until the Bills come to town in a few weeks. Jay Cutler wasn’t horrible, but he wasn’t the “new Jay” either. The Jeremy Lane interception at the end of the first half brought back more

a chance and while Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery each had a costly drop, they both also had a couple of nice moments.

Two encouraging developments were the play of rookie punter Patrick O’Donnell and wide receiver Josh Morgan. Morgan did enough to secure at least the number four wideout spot and should probably be number three right now, and O’Donnell actually outran All Pro safety Earl Thomas to make a touchdown saving tackle on a punt return.

BULLS

Team USA ‘best thing’ for Rose By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com Last week in Chicago, Derrick Rose was asked if he needed to be in the starting lineup for Team USA. “As long as I can step on the floor, knock this rust off, I’ll be fine,” Rose said. “I don’t mind coming off the bench.” That was tested Friday, as USA Basketball had their last warm-up game for the FIBA World Cup on American soil, and sure enough, Rose was a bench player in the 112-86 win over Puerto Rico. A bench player with an asterisk, however. After missing Wednesday night’s exhibition game with the Dominican Republic because of “fatigue,” as well as sitting out of two practices at the start of the week, the decision was made to start Kyrie Irving for a second-consecutive game. Rose had been the starter on Aug. 16 against Brazil. But Rose wouldn’t have to wait long to see the Madison Square Garden court, taking the floor with 4:29 left in the first quarter, and more importantly, easing some minds with the way he played, not only

scoring six points, but looking like the team’s best play-maker in the way he distributed the ball for four assists. As far as the growing concerns that Rose might be better served to walk away from Team USA and focus on the upcoming Bulls season, well, Derrick Rose his coach Tom Thibodeau had a very different opinion on that. “I think it’s the best thing for [Rose],” Thibodeau told ESPN. “Obviously, because of the depth of the team he doesn’t have to play a lot, just find the rhythm of the game, go out and do your job, and this is a good build-up for him, so it’s all positive.” Thibodeau, who is serving as an assistant coach for Team USA, has been pushing for Rose to participate in the FIBA cup since back in the winter, when Rose was first recovering from season-ending surgery on his meniscus. Considering Rose played in only 10 regular-season games since the 2012 playoffs, Thibo-

deau was sounding like it was almost a must that Rose stayed the course this offseason, participating in USA Basketball. But when Rose was sidelined after the win in Brazil, the sirens were sounded. “I could’ve played, but there’s no point when you can get a little bit more rest, so that’s all I’m trying to do,” Rose told reporters on Thursday, downplaying the idea that his shaky knees were the reason for the off days. As far as Rose’s status on the roster? It remained a no-brainer that he would be on the airplane Saturday, heading overseas for one more exhibition game, and then the start of the tournament. According to USA coach Mike Krzyzewski, the goal was to leave for Spain on Saturday with the 12-player roster finalized, meaning that four cuts would have to be made by then. Rose, Irving and Stephen Curry were all but guaranteed spots at the point guard position, but the big decision was Damian Lillard. With Rose’s health still in question, Team USA may need Lillard as an insurance policy.

14 minutes. He apparently will make the team if he and team officials feel his health allows it. “These guys want to play with him. That’s part of getting back is to be around a group of peers,” Krzyzewski said.

like we run in the top 10 about every time we’re at Bristol, and that’s the position you need to be in in order to put yourself in a position to win.” Carl Edwards won that way at Bristol back in the spring, Biffle noted, by being in the right position when it mattered most. His victory was cemented by an inadvertent caution to end a rain-soaked race. “I feel it’s going to take a win still to get in this thing,” Biffle said. The dicey nature of the jumble gets all the more intriguing with rookies Dillon and Larson among those hot on Biffle’s heals. Dillon trails by 22 points for 16th place, Larson is 24 back. “Being a rookie, I don’t have much to lose,” Dillon said. “There has never been a rookie make the Chase. This would be a great opportunity to do that. ... I don’t feel a huge sense of urgency.”

BRISTOL, Tenn. – It’s the kind of jumble that can make even the most seasoned driver nervous. Matt Kenseth stands fifth in the points standings and seems a lock to make it into NASCAR’s Chase for the Sprint Cup championship when the 10-race playoffs begin in three weeks at Chicagoland Speedway. But the 2003 series champion is still winless this season. With three races remaining in the regular-season, including two on unpredictable short tracks, he’s not banking on anything just yet. “I never feel like you’re a lock for anything until you’re really a lock for something,” Kenseth said Friday at Bristol Motor Speedway, the first of those short tracks to be navigated in the next three races. “Until it’s mathematically impossible to be out, I never feel like you’re in. We want to win.” He’s still in a lot less precarious position than, say, Greg Biffle. Twelve drivers are already locked into the playoffs as race winners. Kenseth’s 709 points put him 13th in the Chase standings, 49 points ahead of Biffle, who is in the final qualifying spot. Three drivers – Kasey Kahne, Austin Dillon and Kyle Larson – are within 24 points of Biffle, and the list of nonwinners also includes very capable drivers like Kahne, Paul Menard and Jamie McMurray. In NASCAR’s new format, a win by any of them, or by one

Girl suspects her grandfather Prevent or treat bunion pain has become a dirty old man by choosing sensible footwear Dear Abby: I am a 12-yearold girl, and my grandpa is 75. I love him very much, but I have noticed lately that he stares at women’s breasts when they are jogging, and he smiles when a gust of wind blows a girl’s skirt up. This embarrasses me, and I am embarrassed for him. He must have realized it by now. Is my grandpa a creepy, dirty old man? I hope it’s not true. Please answer this in the newspaper because I don’t want my family to see it. – Carrie in Cleveland Dear Carrie: I’m sorry, but the fact that your grandfather would be so unsubtle as to act this way when you’re with him is creepy, and I’m sure it is embarrassing. Tell your parents about it so your mother or father can tell him to tone down his “enthusiasm.” And if it doesn’t happen, spend less time with Grandpa. Dear Abby: My fiancée, “Caitlyn,” and I are in our 40s and have been living together for a year. My family has invited us to go

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips on a cruise for New Year’s, all expenses paid. Because Caitlyn can’t get time off from her job at the hospital, she doesn’t want me to go, either. Also, in the fall I will be traveling to Europe with my dad to visit relatives. (He’s 80.) These trips don’t happen all the time; it’s an unusual year. Should I refuse the cruise and miss out on being with my extended family to stay home with her while she works? I think Caitlyn’s being selfish to expect me to. We spend all our free time together. We have been to Las Vegas and on a cruise recently. Please advise. –

Held Back In Ohio Dear Held Back: You and Caitlyn are adults in your 40s. At that age, Caitlyn should be independent enough to tell you to go and have a good time with your

family. And you should be mature enough to discuss this with her without involving me. Dear Abby: My sister loaned me her car when she went out of town so I could drop her at the airport and pick her up. (I don’t have a car of my own, but share one with my husband.) While I was driving her car, one of the tires blew. She says I should pay for the replacement tire because I was driving the car on an errand that was unrelated to picking her up when the tire blew. I disagree. Who is right? –

Jennifer In Florida Dear Jennifer: If the agreement between you and your sister was that her car was to be used only to take her to the airport and pick her up, then you owe her a new tire. However, if her tires were so worn they could cause an accident, then she should replace her own tire – and the other three as well. • Write Dear Abby at www.

Dear Dr. K: I have a painful bunion. What is the best way to treat it? Dear Reader: A bunion occurs when two bones in your foot no longer line up properly. Normally, a bone in the foot lines up straight with the first bone in your big toe. With a bunion, the joint where those two bones meet no longer is straight. Instead, there’s knobby bone bulging outward at the base of your big toe. And the big toe itself turns inward, bending toward, or even under, the other toes. Bunions are a common cause of painful toes. One cause of bunions is thought to be years of wearing shoes that squeeze the toes into pointed or narrow toe boxes, forcing the toes to fold over one another. Since women wear such shoes, and since bunions are more common in women than men, that seems reasonable. On the other hand, plenty of my female patients wear shoes that should torture their toes – but they don’t all get bunions. And some

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff of my male patients have bunions. There’s also pretty good evidence that bunions run in families. So I doubt we really know all the causes of bunions. Over time, a bunion can become extremely painful. You can relieve the pain by padding the bunion with felt, moleskin or a doughnutshaped pad. Hot and cold compresses might help. Or try stretching the bunion area of your shoe with a shoe stretcher. Orthotic shoe inserts can redistribute your weight so the bunion doesn’t constantly rub against your shoe. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) and naproxen (Aleve) also can help relieve pain. If these steps don’t work, surgery can restore your toe to its normal position. The surgery is a safe procedure, but you can’t walk on the foot

for several weeks, so your mobility is affected. If you decide to undergo surgery, the specific procedure will depend on the severity of your condition. To treat a mild bunion, the surgeon might shave the enlarged portion of the bone before realigning nearby muscles, tendons and ligaments. To correct severe bunions, the surgeon must cut and then realign a portion of the displaced bone in the toe. Pins, screws or plates will keep the bone in position. To prevent bunions from developing, or to prevent an existing bunion from getting worse, wear shoes with roomy toe boxes. While shoes might not be the sole cause of bunions, they can aggravate the condition. Look for shoes with blunt toes rather than pointed ones. And allow for a quarterinch to a half-inch of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

‘TWEEN 12 & 20 Dr. Robert Wallace running smoothly – no real teen-parent problems. Then one day my dad read some article in a magazine written by an “expert” on teen behavior who advises par-

ents to use a weekly “points system.” The teen has to earn 25 points from Saturday morning to the following Sunday morning, and if the teen fails to reach the number, he is punished according to his earned credits. I agreed to go on the point system only after a rather heated argument, which my father won.

The first week I earned 20 points. Since I was short 5 points, I had my allowance cut from $10 to $5. The next week I earned 21 points, which meant I had a 10 p.m. curfew on Saturday. This really hurt because I had a big date planned with my girlfriend. Her older sister got married that day and the reception was from 6:30 to midnight, but I had to

leave at 9:45 p.m. to be home on time. (My girlfriend stayed.) If I had been late, I would have had 10 points deducted from next week’s total. Things used to be great at home, but I’m a very unhappy camper now. – Name-

REVIEWS & LOCAL SHOWTIMES OF NEW MOVIES ON SCREEN NOW STARRING: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li

PLOT: Barney augments his team with new blood for a personal battle: to take down Conrad Stonebanks, the Expendables co-founder and notorious arms trader who is hell-bent on wiping out Barney and every single one of his associates. RATED: PG-13 for violence including intense sustained gun battles and fight scenes, and for language TIME: 2 hours, 6 minutes VERDICT: For those not familiar with the series, the Expendables are a bunch of guys who will do anything and everything the CIA (secretly, of course) needs them to do. This third entry enters into new territory by spinning a tale of revenge. Everyone is up to the task in the acting department, from the regulars, who have got their characters down pat, to some newcomers, including Kelsey Grammer and a bunch of new folks, among whom the only familiar face to moviegoers will be Kellan Lutz (from the “Twilight” series). While many eyes will be on the only female member, the rugged and beautiful Luna (a relaxed and natural performance from MMA champ Ronda Rousey), accolades are going to flow for Mel Gibson’s presentation of the villain, Stonebanks. Personally speaking, I don’t like the guy or his actions and politics, but he nails this role, and gives the conflicted villain a believable dose of pathos, even as he commits dastardly deeds. It should be no surprise that the story leads to a big showdown of fisticuffs between the hero and the villain. But it’s kind of stunning that the climax is done so well. And it’s eye-winkingly apt that the whole thing ends with Neil Young’s “Old Man” on the soundtrack.

“THE GIVER” STARRING: Brenton Thwaites, Jeff Bridges, Meryl Streep

PLOT: In a seemingly perfect community, without war, pain, suffering, differences or choice, a young boy is chosen to learn from an elderly man about the true pain and pleasure of the “real world.” RATED: PG-13 for mature thematic images and some sci-fi action/violence TIME: 1 hour, 34 minutes VERDICT: “The Giver,” an adaptation of Lois Lowry’s Newbery Medal-winning young adult novel, may seem like it’s riding on the coattails of dystopian action hits such as “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent.” But in reality, Lowry’s book may qualify as the urtext of the form, a slim, futuristic allegory that, since it was published in 1993, has sold more than 10 million copies. In its own way, the movie version – handsomely directed by Phillip Noyce and featuring an appealing, sure-footed cast of emerging and veteran actors – aptly reflects “The Giver’s” pride of place as the one that started it all, or at least the latest wave. Ironically, it wasn’t until its imitators became box office bonanzas that “The Giver” was seen as potentially profitable enough to produce for the big screen. Far less noisy and graphically violent than those films, this mournful coming-ofage tale feels like their more subdued and introspective older sibling. Like its fellow YA movies – which with the current juggernaut of comic-book adaptations represent the dominant culture in Hollywood – “The Giver” perceptively caters to its teenaged fans’ own cardinal desires and anxieties. Messy feelings, youthful curiosity and unruly physical impulses are valorized and elevated. Like “The Fault in Our Stars” earlier this summer, young people have once again been given their generation’s version of a message that, although not necessarily new, nevertheless may feel urgent and uniquely timely to its core audience. “The Giver” has been made with deep respect for that experience, and for the book that so powerfully predicted the grim universe movie teenagers now inhabit – for worse and, in this case, for better as well. – The Washington

“THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY” STARRING: Helen Mirren, Om Puri, Manish Dayal PLOT: The Kadam family clashes with Madame Mallory, proprietress of a celebrated French restaurant, after they open their own nearby eatery, until undeniable chemistry causes the Madame to take gifted young chef Hassan under her wing. RATED: PG for some thematic elements, some violence, language and brief sensuality TIME: 2 hours, 2 minutes VERDICT: Take one Oscar-winning British actress. Add an appealing supporting cast. Lather on the picturesque French countryside. Sprinkle liberally with gorgeous food shots, from bubbling, spicy Indian delicacies to perfectly composed French plates of pigeon and truffles. And

then heap on a heavy serving of corn. That’s not to say there isn’t a lot going for “Journey,” an adaptation of the novel by Richard Morais about an Indian family who opens a restaurant in a French village. Notable is the always delightful Helen Mirren and the entertaining Indian actor Om Puri. It also has a script by the talented Steven Knight and a score by Oscarwinner A.R. Rahman (“Slumdog Millionaire”). Oh, and it’s produced by Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg. Given all these lovely ingredients, then, why is the product so bland? It will be a pleasurable two hours – though lacking, cinematically, in a key ingredient: A little spice. – The

vocatively in bars, at parties or, in one unsavory instance, on her own skankily disheveled couch. “Let’s Be Cops” turns deadly serious for its final half-hour, with Ryan and Justin confronting real-life crime, corruption and gun violence and the filmmakers making an unconvincing point about the difference between video-game mayhem and the real thing.

“SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR” STARRING: Mickey Rourke, Jessica

“IF I STAY” STARRING: Chloe Grace Moretz, Mireille Enos, Jamie Blackley

PLOT: Life changes in an instant for young Mia Hall after a car accident puts her in a coma. During an out-of-body experience, she must decide whether to wake up and live a life far different than she had imagined. RATED: PG-13 for thematic elements and some sexual material TIME: 1 hour, 46 minutes VERDICT: ‘Tis clearly the season for exceedingly attractive young adults in mortal peril. Just two months ago, we had the charming Shailene Woodley as a teen cancer patient, fighting for time while learning about life and love in “The Fault in Our Stars.” We had Aussie heartthrob Brenton Thwaites in “The Giver,” risking his life for the sake of truth and memory. And now we have the sweet Chloe Grace Moretz in “If I Stay,” spending the movie in a state of limbo between life and death, after a catastrophic accident shatters her comfy world. Like all successful YA novels brought to screen, “If I Stay,” based on the 2009 teen tearjerker by Gayle Forman, brings with it a ready-made audience. All the filmmakers need do is cast the most appealing couple they can find and stay faithful to the story, and the kids should be happy. It’s safe to say director R.J. Cutler has done that – Moretz is beautiful to look at, and as her rocker boyfriend, Jamie Blackley is satisfyingly sensitive and hunky. And they have good lips. This is one screen couple that knows how to kiss. If only the dialogue worked as well. Moretz plays Mia, a beautiful young cellist whose locker at high school is lined with “I Love Yo Yo Ma” stickers. Mia’s a classical music nerd. One day at school, gorgeous Adam, a soft bang falling over his left eye just so, spies her playing the cello from a distance and falls for her on the spot, even though he hangs with the cool crowd. Mia falls for Adam just as fast. We see this happy meeting in flashback, because Mia is looking back at life from the precipice. That horrific accident has left her trying to decide, in the words of the Clash song, “Should I stay or should I go?” (The fact that the song isn’t used seems a wasted opportunity.) The film lives or dies (sorry) on the strength of its young lovers. And especially Moretz. Although she crinkles her nose a little too often and a little too consciously, she’s enticing enough to make you hope that she, well, stays.– The Associated Press

“LET’S BE COPS” STARRING: Jake Johnson, Damon Wayans Jr., Rob Riggle

PLOT: Two struggling pals dress as police officers for a costume party and become neighborhood sensations. But when these newlyminted “heroes” get tangled in a real life web of mobsters and dirty detectives, they must put their fake badges on the line. RATED: R for language including sexual references, some graphic nudity, violence and drug use TIME: 1 hours, 44 minutes VERDICT: Like a down-market “Sharknado” of buddy-policemen movies, “Let’s Be Cops” seeks to capitalize on the success of the “21 Jump Street” franchise with lackadaisically exploitative relish: Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr. play a couple of 30-year-old washed-ups living in Los Angeles who, for reasons far too convoluted and tiresome to go into here, possess two perfectly fitting LAPD uniforms. Director and co-writer Luke Greenfield brings no flair or energy to a flimsy premise that, like a piece of gum he’s found on his shoe, only grows thinner and more annoying the longer he tries to stretch it out. Worse, he fails to capitalize on the chemistry between Johnson and Wayans, who have proven their mutually supportive mojo on the sitcom “New Girl.” “Let’s Be Cops” is the kind of movie that depends for laughs on tired bits involving kids swearing, and sustains the audience’s interest with frequent excuses to ogle shapely women dancing pro-

Alba, Josh Brolin PLOT: Some of Sin City’s most hardboiled citizens cross paths with a few of its more reviled inhabitants. RATED: R for strong, brutal stylized violence throughout, sexual content, nudity and brief drug use TIME: 1 hour, 42 minutes VERDICT: Last month, director James Gunn turned a comic book story into the movie hit of the summer. “Guardians of the Galaxy” has raked in hundreds of millions of dollars, making fans out of people who had never heard of the Marvel series. “Sin City: A Dame to Kill For” is not that kind of comic book adaptation. Director Robert Rodriguez first brought “Sin City” to the screen nine years ago, and here, he has turned more of Frank Miller’s brutally violent stories into a stylishly constructed neo-noir nightmare. Both “Sin City” films are for a niche audience that can handle copious amounts of eye-gouging, dismemberment, finger-breaking, decapitation and self-inflicted slicing. “Sin City: A Dame to Kill For” is as visually imaginative as its predecessor. It’s almost entirely in black and white, with the exception of periodic pops of color – a halo of orange curls, a blue coat, a river of blood – and most of the action was shot against a green screen, so the finished product is a slick hybrid of live action and animation. Where “Sin City” was equally vicious, it also was quite funny at times. “A Dame to Kill For” feels less incisive and sillier. And the sequel isn’t nearly as exciting or visionary. The aesthetic quality is still there, even if there haven’t been too many great leaps since Rodriguez unveiled “Sin City” in 2005. But the stories aren’t nearly as engrossing. Fans of Frank Miller’s work will, of course, see the movie, and they won’t care about curious leaps in time or dialogue that might look better on the page than it sounds out loud. This isn’t going to reach a “Guardians”-size audience. Then again, Rodriguez, who’s a huge fan of Miller’s work, probably didn’t intend for it to.– The

“WHEN THE GAME STANDS TALL” STARRING: Jim Caviezel, Alexander Ludwig, Michael Chiklis

PLOT: The journey of legendary football coach Bob Ladouceur, who took the De La Salle High School Spartans from obscurity to a 151-game winning streak that shattered all records for any American sport. RATED: PG for thematic material, a scene of violence and brief smoking TIME: 1 hours, 55 minutes VERDICT: Perfection is impossible. That’s the message of the fact-based “When the Game Stands Tall,” a by-the-book sports drama based on the storied De La Salle Spartans, the high school football team whose 151-game winning streak, achieved between 1992 and 2003, remains a national record. But rather than explaining how this private Catholic school in Concord, California, and its coach, Bob Ladouceur, achieved this remarkable feat, “Game” is more interested in what happened after the streak ended. As the movie opens in late 2003, the Spartans are about to win their 12th straight state championship. Yet when they do, the victory is not received with a sense of gratitude, humility or surprise, but with the inevitability of a foregone conclusion. Then Ladouceur – known as Coach Lad and played by Jim Caviezel with a tight-jawed stoicism that makes his Bible-thumping character disappointingly dull – has a heart attack, a star player (Stephan James) meets a tragic fate and the team loses the first game of the 2004 season. Their golden world, it seems, has come to an end. How the Spartans – the individual players, the team as a whole and the coach – come back from these setbacks provides the substance of the movie, whose moral is encapsulated in Coach Lad’s locker-room philosophy, articulated ad nauseam: Winning is less important than the “perfect effort.” By that standard alone, “When the Game Stands Tall” is a less than vigorous attempt to win over anyone besides the most die-hard consumers of sports clichés.

LAS VEGAS – Visitors flying into Las Vegas got more than just their luggage when they stopped by baggage claim. Cast members from Cirque du Soleil danced on the carousels, did handstands on the moving sidewalks and rode a vintage Volkswagen Beetle into the terminal Thursday afternoon at McCarran International Airport. The unannounced, three-song shows marked the 50th anniversary of the Beatles’ flight from San Francisco to Las Vegas. The band’s two-show gig in 1964 was the only time the Fab Four performed in Sin City.

Kathy Griffin to Minaj: I want a booty challenge NEW YORK – While most people are inviting friends to complete the ice bucket challenge, Kathy Griffin has another proposal for Nicki Minaj: a booty challenge. The 53-year-old comedian said after watching the eye-popping, rump-shaking music video for Minaj’s new hit single, “Anaconda,” she wants to go toe-to-toe with the rap diva. “Of course, everyone’s talking about that ‘Anaconda’ video and it’s fantastic. It’s a lot of boo-tay and I would like to challenge Nicki to a boo-tay-off,” Griffin said in an interview this week. The “Anaconda” video has racked in 35 million views since its Tuesday release and has trended on Twitter throughout the week. “It’s like the ice bucket challenge, but it doesn’t even have any charity associated with it at all,” Griffin continued. “It’s completely gratuitous.” Griffin also has some stiff competition when it comes to the music world apart from Minaj: She released a comedy album last week, and she hopes to mirror her success at the Grammy Awards earlier this year, where she won best comedy album for “Calm Down Gurrl” after five consecutive losses in the category. “I’m going for another nomination, shamelessly,” said Griffin, who is only one of five women to win the honor. Her likely opponents: “Weird Al” Yankovic, who had a pop culture moment this year with the chart-topping “Mandatory Fun,” which featured a stream of highly viewed – and highly praised – music videos.

No act: Tom Hanks wants sod for Women’s World Cup

Stallone and stars promote ‘Expendables’ in Asia

TORONTO – Tom Hanks takes his soccer seriously. And when the Women’s World Cup comes to Canada in 2015, he wants the games played on grass fields. The actor is adding his voice to those protesting the use of artificial turf for the six Canadian venues. On Friday, Hanks tweeted: “Opinion: Women’s World Cup is the best Soccer of the year. Hey FIFA, they deserve real grass. Put in sod.” Forty international players recently wrote to FIFA and the Canadian Soccer Association threatening legal action. They say requiring women to play on artificial turf is discriminatory. In Toronto this month, FIFA President Sepp Blatter lauded the quality of today’s artificial turf. Still, the players in the letter say the risk for injury remains greater than on grass surfaces. Hanks is a fan of the English Premier League club Aston Villa.

MACAU, China – Sylvester Stallone says he hopes to film the next “The Expendables” movie in Asia. The 68-year-old action star is in Macau on Friday to promote the third and latest installment of the action film series. Stallone was joined by his co-star and former-California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. The two received a hero’s welcome on the red carpet in the gambling mecca as about 200 fans waited for hours to get a glimpse of them. Stallone drew loud cheers from admirers when he said the franchise would keep adding stars and athletes. “They’ll be from all parts of the world,” he said. “Hopefully, we’ll be able to film in Asia very soon.” “The Expendables” movies follow a team of mercenaries as they try to fight evil and save the world.

NFL, rapper M.I.A. reach settlement

NEW YORK – John Lennon’s killer was denied release from prison in his eighth appearance before a parole board, New York corrections officials said Friday. The decision on Mark David Chapman by a three-member board came after a hearing Wednesday, the state Department of Corrections said. Chapman fired five shots on Dec. 8, 1980, outside the Dakota apartment house where Lennon lived on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, hitting the ex-Beatle four times in front of his wife, Yoko Ono, and others. He was sentenced in 1981 to 20 years to life in prison after pleading guilty to second-degree murder. An attorney for Ono said Friday that she had no immediate comment. The panel wrote to the 59-year-old Chapman that it concluded that if released, “you would not live and remain at liberty without again violating the law.”

NEW YORK – An attorney for M.I.A. said his client and the NFL have reached a settlement ending their multimillion dollar dispute over the Sri Lankan rapper’s flash of the middle finger during her 2012 Super Bowl halftime performance with Madonna. Attorney Howard E. King said in a statement Friday that the two had reached a confidential settlement, but offered no further details. The Hollywood Reporter reported last year that the NFL took action with the American Arbitration Association for breaching her performance contract and tarnishing the league’s reputation, asking for $1.5 million in damages. A spokesman said the league had no comment. NFL officials have said any money earned from the action would be donated to charity.

Brent Thorne - For Shaw Media

Lorenzo Sales Jr. sets up a short introduction shot of the film crew at 28 Brinker Road in Barrington Hills. Ben Schmanke, Rochelle Mahoutchian, Michael LaFido, Joe Corcaran, Milan Shah and Nan Hayes (from left) were all part of the video production intended to sell the $4.5 million home.

Stage, film, sell Realtor hires actors, luxury cars to market $4.5M home By TARAH THORNE tthorne@shawmedia.com BARRINGTON HILLS – An area real estate agent is looking to add luxury home blockbusters to his business portfolio. “Cracking the Real Estate Code” author and real estate consultant Michael LaFido, of ERA Team Feinstein-Hinsdale, has produced a short marketing video in hopes of selling a $4.5 million, 15-year-old home at 28 Brinker Road in Barrington Hills. Hiring actors, importing luxury cars and staging the property was just the beginning for LaFido and his film crew. “We paint a picture to potential buyers of the lifestyle that comes with this home,” LaFido said. Preparation for the two-minute film, to be called “Million Dollar Transformation,” started in January when LaFido encouraged the homeowners to invest about $300,000 in a full kitchen remodel and hired interior designer Milan Shah to give the 11,500-square-foot home what Shah called a “summer in The Hamptons” feel. LaFido said he didn’t want to miss out on the August market. The listing for the house – with six bedrooms, six bathrooms, three half bathrooms and private lakefront – went live July 31. Owner Jim Lee, a principal at Hamilton Communications in Chicago, estimated he and his wife Colleen invested about $4 million into the seven-acre property after purchasing it for $3.9 million in 2009. The home was up for sale in 2012 and 2013. Jim Lee said he wasn’t ready to let the home go despite it not selling. “Emotionally, I wanted to keep the

A $4.5 million home at 28 Brinker Road, Barrington Hills, was staged to be filmed by a five-person production crew for an online two-minute tour video. The film shoot lasted hours on Thursday. Project director and ERA real estate broker Michael LaFido said the goal is for potential buyers to be able to view the short clip and imagine themselves in the home. property for myself,” Lee said. “I love the area, privacy, scenery and architectural uniqueness of the home. It’s deceptively elegant.” Lee said his wife and three children wanted to move back to their North Shore origins to be close to friends they miss. “Don’t get me wrong,” Lee said. “I’m quite happy in the North Shore, but that was my dream house in Barrington Hills. It was the house I was going to retire in. I would come home from the city every day and restore myself. It was like living in a resort out there.” As for LaFido’s film proposition, Lee said he thought it was creative. “I’m in advertising myself so I

know that marketing is absolutely necessary in a sell,” Jim Lee said. “People aren’t always able to envision themselves in a still home, so the film will bring it to life.” First to roll in for a full day of filming Aug. 11 were four expensive pieces of eye candy from Chicago Motor Cars – a 2014 Rolls Royce Ghost, Audi R8 GT, Ferrari California and 1993 Ferrari 512 TR. Then came seven actors – five adults and two children; a Barrington-rented horse; a crew of cinematographers from Cv3 Media Productions of Hinsdale, and dronemounted video equipment from Schmanke Media of South Elgin.

Johnsburg man seeks backing for pizza place By ALLISON GOODRICH agoodrich@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – A local foodie is hoping to bring a new pizza joint to Johnsburg with a little entrepreneurial spirit and a lot of help from fellow McHenry County residents. Owner of home-based giardiniera company Chicago Johnny’s, Josh Downey is seeking public support to open the first Chicago Johnny’s restaurant in his hometown. “This is like, I finally feel after 30 years, I know what I want to do with my life,” Downey said. “Opening a restaurant is my dream.” He’s taken to crowdfunding website Kickstarter in hopes that friends, family and pizza-loving strangers might help bring his dream to fruition. Downey said he’s still got a long way to go, with a goal of $80,000 and just about $1,000 pledged so far. “[The $80,000] would help cover a down payment on a lease, minor renovations and money to carry it through the first couple weeks,” he said. In exchange for donations, Downey is offering rewards such as an in-home Chicago Johnny’s pizza party. Bringing the idea to the village of Johnsburg made sense, he said, not only because it’s the place where he grew up, but because he’s always

NEW YORK – McDonald’s named a new president for its struggling U.S. division on Friday, marking the second change in the high-profile spot in less than two years. The world’s biggest hamburger chain says it’s bringing back a longtime McDonald’s executive, Mike Andres, to fill the role effective Oct. 15. Andres replaces Jeff Stratton, who is retiring, and inherits some major challenges. Stratton, 58, took over in late 2012 and replaced Jan Fields. That shakeup was made shortly after McDonald’s Corp. reported its first monthly sales drop in nearly a decade. Sales in the U.S. have remained weak ever since, with the company facing intensifying competition and changing eating habits. In the April-to-June quarter, the company reported a 1.5 percent sales decline at established U.S. locations. Then for July, it reported a 3.2 percent drop. McDonald’s, which is based in Oak Brook, has blamed its performance on a variety of factors, including its own missteps. For instance, the company has said it introduced too many items too quickly, which complicated kitchen operations. McDonald’s CEO Don Thompson has said the chain is working on fixing basics, such as the speed of service and order accuracy. The company also is pushing to improve the image of its food, in part by introducing items positioned as more premium offerings, such as its new Bacon Clubhouse burger. It also plans to offer mandarin oranges as an option in Happy Meals this fall, and says it’s exploring other fruits.

Deere to lay off about 460 from tractor plant MOLINE – Agricultural equipment maker Deere is laying off about 460 employees indefinitely from an Iowa tractor factory as it continues to adjust to market demand. The Moline company said Friday that the latest round of layoffs will be effective Oct. 20. Deere said last week that it would lay off more than 600 employees at four Midwest factories that make harvesting and other agricultural equipment due to slumping demand. The latest layoffs will happen at the company’s Waterloo, Iowa, operations. Last week’s announcement involved factories in East Moline and Moline as well as Ankeny, Iowa, and Coffeyville, Kansas. The company said also said last week that it was implementing seasonal and inventory adjustment shutdowns and temporary layoffs at those factories as well as one in Ottumwa, Iowa.

Keurig strikes deal with Kraft on coffee brands

Northwest Herald file photo

Josh Downey, founder of Chicago Johnny’s giardiniera, poses for a portrait at his home in 2013. Downey is seeking public support to open the first Chicago Johnny’s restaurant in his hometown of Johnsburg. known it to be a place willing to support local businesses. “The people who have seen and tried my food love it,” he said. Downey described his artisanstyle pizza as rustic and earthy, featuring thin or deep dish crust made with a mix of whole wheat and semolina flour. His intention, apart from serving and selling quality homemade food

and products, is to establish Chicago Johnny’s as a family-friendly community restaurant, Downey said. Chicago Johnny’s, which he trademarked for both his home-based giardiniera business as well as for a future restaurant, was founded by him in 2012 after he was laid off from a job he acquired right after college.

NEW YORK – Keurig Green Mountain says it struck a deal to make Kraft’s branded coffees, such as Maxwell House and Gevalia, for its single-serve brewing systems in the U.S. The companies did not disclose financial terms of the deal. Keurig, based in Waterbury, Vermont, makes at-home brewing machines that let people make cups of coffee one serving at a time. The company also is working on a machine that would let people make cold, carbonated drinks at home, and has partnered with Coca-Cola to let people make various Coke drinks at home.

Jell-O can’t stop slippery sales slide By CANDICE CHOI The Associated Press

Brent Thorne - For Shaw Media

A black 2014 Ferrari California, a red Ferrari 512 TR and a black Audi R8 GT (from left) provided by Chicago Motor Cars, were parked outside a $4.5 million Barrington Hills home at 28 Brinker Road. The luxury cars were used to film a short movie intended to draw potential buyers.

LaFido: ‘My job is to make the home stand out’ from another state, or even an international buyer.” Describing the home as a “very retreatful dream vacation every single day,” Shah said it’s likely one of the most exclusive properties in the area. “I imagine the buyer to be very successful, but also family-oriented,” Shah said. “Maybe a couple with young kids or grandparents who can host family with the guest amenities.” Estimating that the film will end up costing about $10,000 out of his own pocket, LaFido said he would like to continue making home-marketing videos in the future – perhaps as part of a reality show. “I think there’s definitely a potential here,” LaFido said. “Most agents would just take pictures or maybe put a boring virtual tour online.” LaFido said most real estate agents don’t think like marketers. “My job is to make the home stand out against the competition,” LaFido said. Visit www.luxehomemarketing to view the video and for information.

• HOME Continued from page E1 The actors never spoke, as a narrative voice-over will be used for the final cut. Scenes included people pier fishing, paddle boating, picnicking, swimming in the home’s eightfoot-deep infinity pool and making use of the picturesque property. Shah pointed out some of the home’s special amenities – a guest house, a horse barn, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a lake, glass and limestone walls, an oversized fireplace; a five-car garage with heated floor, a private outdoor master bedroom hot tub, recreational rooms and a Brazilian hardwood deck. Lee said he had the deck’s wood panels imported from Brazil and installed one-by-one for about $300,000 to ensure the deck would never splinter or chip. The deck overlooks an unnamed private lake and aviary island where Lee said he could often observe cranes, hawks and geese.

Ben Schmanke of South Elgin, readied his DJI Phantom Aerial Drone to capture a Rolls Royce Ghost pulling into the driveway of a Barrington Hills home for sale at 28 Brinker Road. Lee said. “It’s a place where both children and adults can play.” LaFido said he’s already had two or three interested buyers who haven’t seen the film yet, and he’s confident the home will sell as quickly as 95 percent of his listings, which have sold in 39 days or less. “I’m looking for the needle in the haystack buyer,” LaFido said. “It probably isn’t going to be anyone local – maybe a relocating CEO from the city or someone who’s moving in

Since Lee had anticipated staying in the home for life, he said he had invested in landscaping. “We planted about 200 new trees and mapped and tagged every tree on the property,” Lee said. “There’s also an apple orchard where our children’s classmates would visit to pick apples and fundraise for their school.” Lee said his children outgrew horses and grew into cars, hence the large garage. “It’s a home for entertaining,”

NEW YORK – Jell-O has lost its jiggle and nobody knows how to fix it. The dessert was invented more than a century ago and helped popularize a delicacy reserved for the rich into a quick, affordable treat. Americans of all ages are familiar with the famous “J-E-L-L-O” jingle and TV ads featuring comedian Bill Cosby. Knocking back Jell-O shots made with alcohol is a college memory for many. Yet despite its enduring place in pop culture, sales have tumbled 19 percent in the past four years, with alternatives such as Greek yogurt surging in popularity. Executives at Kraft Foods, which owns Jell-O, say they’re confident they can revitalize the brand. But their efforts so far have been a disappointment. After years of marketing sugar-free Jell-O to dieters, for instance, Kraft last year launched an ad campaign that switched back to playing up the family angle. In one TV spot called “Comb Over,” a man with the title hairdo tells his son how Jell-O makes up for life’s troubles, like being stuck in traffic. The visual gag is when the child imagines himself going through life with a comb over. “Kids thought it was hi-

larious,” said Dan O’Leary, senior director of marketing for Kraft desserts. Unfortunately, it didn’t get people in the mood to eat Jell-O. After showing signs of improvement for a couple years, Jell-O sales in the U.S. hit $932.5 million in 2009, reflecting box mixes and readyto-eat cups of gelatins and puddings, according to market researcher Euromonitor International. But they’ve been declining ever since, and by last year, sales had seen a double-digit percentage drop to $753.8 million. Part of the problem is that people have become more finicky about what they eat. They’re increasingly seeking out foods they think are natural or wholesome, and Jell-O’s bright reds, greens and blues may inadvertently serve as warning signals to mothers about the artificial dyes they contain. The second ingredient listed for the Jell-O gelatin cups is also high-fructose corn syrup, a cheaper sugar substitute that more people are shunning. Nutrition more broadly is another issue. Jell-O has long positioned itself as a lighter alternative to cakes and pies (as the slogan goes, “There’s always room for Jell-O”). But the trend now is toward foods that claim some sort of benefit, such as protein and fiber.

Downey hopes to start new restaurant this year • PIZZA Continued from page E1 At that point, he spent much of his down time in the kitchen making giardiniera, and eventually realized it was a product people would buy. It began with sales at local flea markets, and within a year, Chicago Johnny’s products were being sold at more than 20 locations from McHenry to Chicago.

“Now, I’ll take what I learned from that and focus it more on the restaurant,” he said. The restaurant is an endeavor Downey is hoping to have off the ground by the end of fall or early winter.

Claude Chabrol, a French ilm director perhaps best known for “Le Boucher” (the butcher), said, “You make a ilm to distract people, to interest them, perhaps to make them think, perhaps to help them be a little less naive, a little better than they were.” At the bridge table, if you can legally distract your opponents, it will probably be to your advantage. How do you do that? By producing unexpected bids or, especially, plays. Do you see something distracting in this deal? South is in three no-trump. West leads his fourth-highest heart. East wins with his ace and returns the heart six. What happens after that? Note that despite holding 30 combined high-card points, three no-trump seems destined to fail. Let’s assume South takes the second trick with his heart king and West plays the two to indicate that he started with a ive-card suit. Declarer should cross to the dummy with a club and call for the diamond jack, trying to look like someone about to take a inesse for the queen. But East should not be distracted. He should realize that his partner has three heart winners, grab the trick with his ace, and lead

his last heart, which results in down one. At my bridge camp in Highlands, North Carolina, in June, one player found a great way to distract West. Bill Geary of New Orleans, knowing that he was going to win only one heart trick, dropped his king under East’s ace at trick one! When East led back the heart six, West should have ducked to keep communication with his partner. But he distractedly won with his queen and played a third heart. Now Geary drove out the diamond ace and came home with an overtrick. Terriic!

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - Expand your creative ideas and put some plans in place to help you reach your goals. You have a myriad of interests, but you need to focus on what is most important to you. Draw up an outline for a future in which you fully use your expertise, talent and skills. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Someone isn’t being frank with you. Let your intuition guide you in order to find out what’s at stake and how you should proceed. Caution, attention to detail and precision will pay off for you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Get out and make new friends. A decision to waste the day away could cause you to miss an exciting opportunity from an interesting party. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Someone will be hesitant to share his or her feelings. Take a step back and offer time and space until you can reach a comfort zone that is conducive to serious discussions. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- You will be the star of the show. Your charm and charisma will draw people your way, and you will gain popularity among your peers. Enjoy the moment and make positive moves. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If you are looking for a way to increase your income, consider using your skills more diversely. A property or business venture has the potential to become very lucrative. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You’ll face conflicting emotions when it comes to those closest to you. Examine your position and consider what, exactly, is making you feel uncertain. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- You will make a good impression today. You’ll be difficult to keep up with and next to impossible to beat. Mix business with pleasure in order to gain momentum. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- A travel opportunity will be coming your way. Remember to put your own needs first. Devote your day to fun and laughter and doing the things that make you happy. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Don’t judge others too harshly. You may suffer some disappointment, but it’s doubtful that anyone intended to hurt you. Forgive, forget and move on. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Put all your cards on the table when scouting for a collaborator. If you are truthful about your expectations, you can expect fruitful new developments. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Talk to someone showing interest in your particular skills and talents. You stand to make some money if you can market what you have to offer. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You will generate all kinds of favorable attention. The followers you attract must not be given priority over those who have helped and supported you from the get-go.
