Black History Month

VMH honors WWII vets this weekend

By Shane Nicholson Managing Editor

Some of World War II’s most storied service members will be honored during a series of special Veterans Memorial Hall (VMH) events.

Beginning Saturday, members of the famed Tuskegee Airmen as well as a special guest from the Army 761st Tank Unit will share stories with the public about their military service.

The Tuskegee Airmen were America’s first black military airmen. Over 350 of the Tuskegee, Alabama-based enlisted men were deployed in Europe for combat duty, flying over 1267 missions with 15th Air Force.

The 761st Tank Unit, also known as the “Black Panthers,� was the first black tank batallion of World War II. Remembered for helping break the Siegfried Line on the Western Front late in 1944, the 761st crossed the continent from France to Austria during their time in combat.

Rockford resident Thomas Jarrett will be on hand to represent the 761st.

On Sunday veterans of the Montford Point Marines will be honored as members of the Chicago Chapter of the first black recruits to the Marine Corps will share their stories and answer questions. “This is our seventh year hosting these events,� says Scott Lewandowski, Manager of VMH. “The community response has always been good and we hope this year is another success.�

Both Saturday and Sunday’s programs begin at 1 p.m. Doors open at noon.

Tickets are $5 for adults and admission is free to students with ID and seniors 65 and older. “It’s important for citizens to remember and honor these men who served,� Lewandowski added.

State

Rauner looks to cut local gov’t waste

By Shane Nicholson Managing Editor

Governor Bruce Rauner Friday set his sights on local government in an effort to trim bureaucracy and cut spending across the state.

At an event in Elmhurst the Republican signed into effect a new Local Government Consolidation and Unfunded Mandate Task Force to be chaired by Lt. Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti.

The task force is charged with identifying inefficiencies in units of local government and encouraging streamlining efforts in order to remove excess spending.

“Illinois leads the nation with nearly 7,000 units of local government,” Rauner said. “Many of these unnecessary layers of government are why hardworking families end up paying some of the highest property taxes in the nation.”

Currently Illinois outpaces second placed Pennsylvania by more than 2,000 units of local government, and only New Jersey residents carry a higher property tax burden according to a report by the Urban Institute, a Washington D.C. policy think tank.

The task force will be appointed by the Governor and will include representatives from various local government bodies and the General Assembly.

Rauner was joined at a signing ceremony by DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin, whose efforts to trim waste in the suburban county were highlighted by the Governor during his State of the State address Feb. 4.

“We need to lessen the burden of unfunded mandates imposed by the state on local governments,” Rauner said, “while also encouraging streamlining of local government functions in order to save taxpayers money.”

The task force is due to submit its final recommendations to the Governor and General Assembly Dec. 31 at which point it will be dissolved. shane.nicholson@rockrivertimes.com Twitter: @ofvoid

Mikosz sentenced to 15 years

Staff Report Winnebago County State’s Attorney Joe Bruscato announced Tuesday that Dennis Mikosz was sentenced to a total of 15 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections.

He will also be on Mandatory Supervised Release for two years once he’s released from prison, as ordered by the Honorable Judge Joseph McGraw.

On the evening of Aug. 22, 2013, Winnebago County Sheriff ’s Deputies saw a vehicle swerving as it drove out of the parking lot of a Rockford business in the 3500 block of E. State Street.

Deputies pulled the vehicle over near East State and Dawn Avenue and could smell alcohol coming off the driver.

Mikosz sped off from the scene, swerving and driving at a high rate of speed along South Alpine, E. State Street and Mulford Road.

He struck one car and almost struck several others before running a red light at Mulford Road and East State Street.

At Mulford and Garrett Lane, Mikosz ran another red light and slammed into a car driven

by Michelle Parker and one other vehicle. Parker died of the injuries she received in the crash.

Blood tests revealed that Mikosz had a blood alcohol content of almost three times the legal limit of .08 at the time of the crash.

Mikosz was found guilty of Aggravated Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol Involving Death, Aggravated Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol, Reckless Homicide and five counts of Aggravated Fleeing to Elude after a bench trial.

He was sentenced to 14 years for Aggravated Driving Under the Influence Involving Death charge and one year for the Aggravated Fleeing to Elude charge.

Environment

Carbon fixes: assessing the options

By Robert and Sonia Vogl

President and Vice President, Illinois Renewable Energy Association

Concerns over climate change have intensified, driven by the Federal initiative to cut carbon emissions 30 percent by 2030. With a Republican Congress, efforts are underway to undercut the Obama Administration’s attempts to reduce these emissions. Some opponents claim carbon reductions are unnecessary, job killing and too costly.

Since the reduction plans are to be developed on a state-by-state basis, those efforts are likely to prove contentious as well.

A recent report, “Heat in the Heartland: Climate Change and Economic Risk in the Midwest, A product of the Risky Business Project”, was cochaired by Michael Bloomberg, Hank Paulson and Thomas Steyer, along with Risk Committee Members composed primarily of former federal government officials.

There for you even after the ink has dried.

The report predicts significant economic impacts from climate change if we stay on the current emissions path. Rising temperatures will adversely impact agriculture, increase electrical demand for air conditioning and harmfully affect human well being. For example, it is estimated that by 2050, Chicago has a 1-in-20 chance of experiencing more than 10 days/year with a humidity heat stroke index similar to the one in 1995 that killed 750 people. By the turn of the century Chicago could have twice the number of 95 degree days as Texas currently has.

Efforts to curb carbon emissions on a global basis rely on nations agreeing on emission targets.

If agreements are reached, questions remain regarding their implementation.

The reality of climate change and the need to address it could be faced with further delays from conflicts over appropriate solutions. Geo engineering solutions have raised some concerns.

Instead of cutting emissions, advocates want to blow sulfate aerosols into the stratosphere to block solar radiation and lower global temperatures.

Carbon capture and storage also has its advocates.

The effort would pump billions of tons of carbon dioxide into old coal mines and oil wells to lower its concentration in the atmosphere.

Others are moving ahead with actions consis-

tent with reducing our dependence on fossil fuels.

Burlington, Vermont, has claimed it is the first U.S. city to be 100 percent powered by renewable electricity. The city’s public utility relies on biomass, hydroelectric, solar and wind sources to provide electricity to its customers.

On an individual and community basis, homes and townhouses have demonstrated that well-insulated buildings can cut energy consumption for heating by at least 80 percent, even in cold northern climates. Many generate their electricity using solar panels, while remaining connected to the grid for backup power. On an annual basis, the homes become zero-net energy consumers by using the credits from excess summer production.

Existing buildings can also benefit from energy upgrades; saving money, improving occupant comfort, reducing local air pollution and cutting carbon emissions. The Rockford branch of U.S. Green Building Council is calling for a program to address the need to increase the energy efficiency of existing buildings. Using the money saved from low gas and natural gas prices to invest in upgrading the energy efficiency of existing buildings, will provide cost savings long into the future.

RRI sits down

By Todd Houston facebook.com/RockfordRockedInterviews

RRI: Let’s start by talking about your passion for painting and art in general. You graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and have been pretty busy doing what you love ever since. Tell us how you got involved in painting murals.

Yes, I received my degree in ‘90 from Rockford College. I happened to develop a love for large scale drawing while in college and quickly became a follower of ‘super-realist’ Chuck Close’s work. His mass-scale, close-up (no pun intended) portraits were astounding to me. And that is what formed my love for portraiture early on. It wasn’t long before I became known as the ‘wall hog’ around campus. Just one step into the Clark Arts Center studios and you would see my work taking up the entire studio walls. I figured no one else was using them, so why not?

In 1995 I formed Adamany Art & Design here in Rockford and in the 20 years following have painted literally hundreds of murals both here in the Midwest and throughout the country.

RRI: My kids and I personally love the mu-

ral you did at the Beef-a-Roo on Alpine and Sandy Hollow. How often do you get called for “touch up” work?

Thank you, that one is officially my longest standing work to date. As for ‘touch-up’, that mural specifically required a one-time partial re-do three years later due to gang graffiti and I’ve not had to do anything with it since. Touch-up work for me hasn’t been what you would call the biggest money maker for me (laughs).

RRI: What’s the most challenging job that you have encountered thus far and why?

I would definitely have to say my Egyptian-themed ‘Star Cinema’ Murals in Council Bluffs, IA, painted in 2003. This was my largest job to date. The work consisted of over 6,000 sq. ft. of murals. The showpiece of that theater is its 3,100 square-foot dome that spans 60’ across and is over 40’ off the ground. After two-and-a-half months of research, planning & design, the job required the hiring of three apprentices to help me paint over 250 linear feet of canvas here in the studio over a three-month period. Then I spent over nine weeks on location painting the massive dome and columns and installing all of

with artist Mark Adamany

the canvas work. That job gave me back problems for some time afterward.

RRI: You’re also a seasoned veteran of the local Rockford music scene and a very fine drummer. Tell us how you got your start playing music and which bands you were involved

with locally?

Why, thank you. I pretty much have been playing all of my life. My mother was a local music teacher as well as a pianist and vocalist. I believe I got it all from her. After begging my parents relentlessly, I received my first kit for Christmas in 7th grade. My first ‘real’ band was called “Ript” at age 18. I went on to play in several all-original bands including Zion Crest, St. James & Scarlet Winter (all from Wisconsin), then with Rockford’s own Mirrored Image. After leaving Mirrored Image there was Buick Makane & the Drill, then later the Lust Killers.

After the last band folded I decided that I would no longer pursue music as a full-time venture and start to focus more on my art career. Today I’m back into music and am currently playing drums for the Harvest Bible Chapel of Rockford, as well as for Mob Zero.

RRI: What are your thoughts on iTunes and downloading just one song as opposed to buying a whole album or CD? I guess I’m still old-school as I love CDs. Nothing beats holding a tangible item in your hand with actual ARTWORK. Truthfully, most of my iTunes consists of my downloaded CDs.

As for iTunes though, I do think it’s cool that you can just purchase one tune, because let’s face it, there are way too may ‘filler’ songs out there.

RRI: Rockford still has a handful of festivals that feature live music but has lost a few along the way including OTWF. What are your thoughts on how the music scene in Rockford has changed over the last 25 years, or has it?

Yes, it definitely has. First off, it’s really hard to make money in today’s scene, as opposed to the days of old. The days of walking off the stage with a couple hundred bucks in everyone’s pocket seem to be long gone. And just like my art, you get what you pay for. I do miss the days when most clubs had actual stages, big house systems and lighting. It’s a nasty catch-22 having to both work harder to set gear up, as well as spending more money to supply your own system.

RRI: Favorite local restaurant to go for pizza?

Giuseppe’s by far. But being the homebodies that we are, we tend to order delivery more. As for pizza joints we actually sit at? I would have to say Geri’s, out by Giovanni’s - underrated to say the least.

RRI: Best way to prepare venison?

The key is the tenderization process, as well as the marinade, and I have over a dozen of my own secret recipes. Just ask anyone who’s been to our place for ‘em, and they’ll tell you I grill up the most flavorful and tender steaks they’ve ever eaten. And thanks to my son, Johnny, who hunted with me on his first trip ever this year and got three deer, including one on his first ever morning out. We certainly didn’t go hungry but I got skunked.

RRI: Favorite Saturday night album?

These days, anything by Alter Bridge. Simply the best band out there.

RRI: Ludwig, Tama or Pearl Drums?

Well, I have still have some Ludwig equipment, as well as a set of Pearl congas. But I must go with Tama. I am loving my ‘89 Granstar kit thanks to Randy Rainwater.

RRI: Peter Criss or Eric Carr (former KISS Drummers)?

I’ll probably get beat up by all those Kiss traditionalists, but I have to go with Eric Carr.

His technical abilities and showmanship far outweighed Chriss’ in my humble opinion. I had the chance to meet him back in the day, as well.

What a humble spirit he was - RIP.

Beloit Int’l Film Festival marks 10th anniversary

Staff Report The B eloit International Film Festival (BIFF) and long-time sponsor, BMO Harris Bank, will unveil an entirely new look and format for BIFF ’s 10th anniversar y Silent Film Showcase.

The featured film will be the original 1925 version of “ The Phantom of the Opera” starring Lon Chaney.

T h e pre s e nt at i on w i l l t a k e p l a c e in the Sanctuar y at the Castle at 501 Prospect Street in B eloit, Saturday at 7:30 p.m.

The stor y of the phantom takes place at the Opera of Paris, where a mysterious specter threatens a famous lyric singer, Carlotta, thus forcing her to give up her role (Marguerite in Faust) for unknown Christine Daae.

Christine meets this phantom in the catacombs, where he lives. The makeup effects Chaney devised for the film led to his being characterized as “the man with a thousand faces.”

“As this is our 10th anniversar y, I felt it was important to give our loyal Silent Film Showcase following something extra-special for 2015,” explained Rod

B eaudoin, BIFF Executive Director. “ The C astle, with its magnif icent pipe organ and late 19th centur y architecture and décor, made it a perfect compliment to the film. And the acoustics are impeccable.”

The film will be accompanied by renowned organist Bob Rub who will play the Castle’s Henr y Pilcher & S ons vintage pipe organ. The accompaniment will include the original organ score w it h a d d it i on a l mu s i c a l i nt e r lu d e s composed by Maestro Robert Tomaro.

Periodically during the screening old will meet new when the accompaniment will brief ly switch from organ to piano with L anette Calhoun accompanying

soprano Gaia Galvan and a baritone yet to be named as they perform selections from the 2004 Andrew Lloyd Webber version of “ The Phantom of the Opera.”

Other highlights of the evening will include the Rock River Philharmonic (RPP) silent auction, which each year raises important funds to support the Philharmonic.

T h e R R P, u n d e r t h e d i re c t i on of Maestro Robert Tomaro, will provide it s C h a mb e r O rc h e s t r a t o p e r f or m at m o s p h e r i c s e l e c t i o n s d u r i n g t h e reception and auction portions of the evening. The RRP will also provide the musicians who will accompany the film.

“We are thrilled with the exciting

changes in the Silent Film Showcase this year,’ said Britney McKay, Outreach and Marketing Director of The Rock River Philharmonic.

“I truly believe that this will be one of the most memorable years yet with live musical accompaniment.”

The title sponsor for the event, BMO Harris Bank, has been supporting BIFF and the Silent Film Showcase since its inception 10 years ago.

“As a ten year sponsor of the B eloit Inte r nat i ona l F i l m Fe st iv a l, we are deeply committed to supporting events t hat f ur t her enhance t he St ateline’s exposure to enriching fine and performing arts experiences,” said B onnie Wetter, BMO Trust and Custody S ervices, BMO Harris Bank. “We anticipate another great selection of films for filmgoers to enjoy at BIFF, including the Silent Film Showcase, featuring “Phantom of the Opera.”

Tickets are $25 to the opening night event. For more information visit beloitfilmfest.org.

Black History Month important to race-relations in Rockford

Frederick Douglass: Civil rights activist, politician and newspaper publisher

By Floyd Tyrone Prunty, Jr. e all know the names of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., his wife Coretta Scott King and Malcolm X. But here is Black History from another perspective: relatively unknown Americans who made great contributions to the nation and the world.

Black people are people who just happen to be black. I can’t imagine the world with either all black people or with no black people. I think we all are needed and play an important role.

While some blacks have caused their share of problems some have been responsible for helpful inventions.

Try to imagine tall buildings with only stairs; Alexander Mils did, he invented the elevator.

Richard Spikes invented the automatic gear shift for cars. Joseph Gambol invented the super charge system for internal combustion engines.

Garrett A. Morgan invented the traffic signals.

The rapid transit would be useless without the electric trolley, which was invented by Albert R. Robinson. Lawns would be brown and wilted if Joseph Smith hadn’t invented the lawn sprinkler and John Burr the lawn mower.

Homes would be poorly ventilated and heated if Fredrick Jones hadn’t invented the air conditioner and Alice Parker the heating furnace.

Homes might also be very dim had not Lewis Later invented the electric lamp. Michael Harvey invented the lantern; Granville T. Woods invented the automatic cut-off switch.

On wash day, we might think of George T. Samon; he invented the clothes dryer and Sarah Boone invented the ironing board. Lee Barrage invented the typewriter; W.A. Love invented the advanced printing press. Our food is kept cold today thanks to John Standard; he invented the refrigerator. All the inventors mentioned were, you guessed it, black.

As an African-American, I had the pleasure of working on President Obama’s first campaign and was a poll judge. I’ve meet one of the Tuskegee Airmen. I will continue to pass on my involvement to my grandchildren and two-yearold son. Black History must be taught so America can continue to expand in race relations.

Come out and join State Representative Litesa Wallace and other African American leaders on February 23 at 6 p.m. at the Gateway Patriotic Center, 615 S. Fifth St., where black issues such as crime victims will be discussed.

As Blacks, we must come out, speak out, and get involved in our community during Black History Month and all year.

rederick Douglass (1818-95) was an important civil rights activist, politician, and newspaper publisher during and immediately following the American Civil War. I may have heard of Douglass in high school, but it was not until I took a college course on the Civil War when I learned to admire him. Douglass was a leader, not only in the anti-slavery movement, but was also an outspoken advocate for women’s rights.

Douglass, an African-American, was born into slavery, but escaped after some failed attempts. Soon after escaping slavery, Douglass participated in abolitionist meetings and became a well-respected speaker on the anti-slavery movement.

Douglass then wrote the first of three autobiographies, which contributed to his growing popularity and respect throughout not only the United States but also the world.

Douglass subscribed to and read the popular abolitionist newspapers of the day and was inspired to start his own newspaper, The North Star. The North Star’s motto was “Right is of no Sex–Truth is of no Color–God is the Father of us all, and we are all Brethren.” The North Star, later Frederick Douglass’ Paper, became one of the most influential anti-slavery newspapers of the day, cementing Douglass’ leadership in the anti-slavery movement.

I respect the power and importance of newspapers and especially admire Douglass for using his newspaper to promote his civil rights agenda. Douglass contributed significantly to the national dialogue on slavery. Thank you, Mr. Douglass.

Douglass remained popular and influential after the Civil War. In recognition of his talent and wisdom, Douglass was appointed as U.S. marshal for the District of Columbia (1877-81) and U.S. minister of Haiti (1889-91).

News groups need more women’s voices in sport

By Kristen Gehrke t wasn’t long ago that women were barred from post-game locker room interviews following sporting events.

In fact, it was October of 2013.

I hadn’t been covering sports very long–just a blog post here or there–before finding myself at BC Place in Vancouver to cover a MLS match between the Vancouver Whitecaps and the Portland Timbers. The press box was, predictably, 90 percent male.

After the game I accompanied my Vancouver counterpart to Whitecaps coach Martin Rennie’s presser before heading out on my own to get a few quotes from the Portland coach and players.

A few of us from the Portland press, including the female beat writer from The Oregonian, were escorted into the locker room without incident.

But my Vancouver host was blocked from entering the lockers when she arrived moments later, told by security that she would have to wait in the hallway outside because “men are changing in there.”

The team later apologized, promising to look into the incident and make sure that stadium security was all on the same page.

I’ve been lucky. I’ve been allowed the same access male reporters have without incident. But that game in Vancouver will always be in the back of my mind: every time I approach a locker room door I’ll wonder if this will be the time I’m not allowed in.

In a piece published recently by the Society of Professional Journalists titled “Getting Women Into the Game,” Marie Hardin, Dean of the College of Communications at Penn State, is quoted as saying there are fewer female sports journalists proportionally than there are women serving in the US armed forces. She and others place the blame on the division of domestic labor (women chose family rather than the extensive travel sports writing often entails) or the fact that women’s professional sports aren’t as widely followed as men’s, thus not providing the same opportunities for retired athletes in media roles.

While we do still see many professional women take time from their careers to raise their families, assuming female athletes might be better suited to covering only women’s sports is problematic. The knowledge base is the same regardless of the gender of the athlete or the reporter.

Regardless, with many professional leagues followed by a fairly equal number of men and women, it only makes sense that the sporting world will see and hear more female voices in sports coverage.

People will read and watch reporters they can identify with, those whose voices are similar to their own. Because of this, news agencies will need to actively recruit a more diverse cross section of voices.

Letter to the Editor

Fossil fuel divestment a moral conversation

I find the commentary published on February 11 by Drs. Robert and Sonia Vogl of the Illinois Renewable Energy Association to be misleading.

While certainly solar energy can play an important role in reducing carbon emissions in Illinois, the Vogls have not told the full story.

The Vogls fail to point out that the Illinois Power Agency’s commitment to purchase solar energy credits is likely to increase rather than decrease carbon emissions.

Solar energy facilities are capable of producing only about 15% of the maximum possible electricity because the sun does not always shine and solar panels are not always clear.

Furthermore, the availability of solar energy may not coincide with when it is most needed at times of peak demand.

As a result, there must be coal and gas back-up generation that can be switched on and off quickly.

The result, especially in Illinois, of the solar plan that the Vogls endorse is likely to be a substitution of base load zero-emission nuclear generation that produces over 90% of its potential with some solar power and some gas or coal power. This will increase, not decrease, carbon emissions in Illinois, contrary to what we all want and to what the Vogls misleadingly suggest.

ith crucial international climate negotiations coming up in Paris in the Fall of 2015, the first ever Global Divestment Day took place on February 13-14 Activists and everyday people across six continents and 48 countries joining together in more than 300 events—including street theater, elaborate props, sit-ins, vigils, dancing, bicycle parades and social media blitzes—all in the name of calling on corporations, foundations, endowments and other institutions to divest from fossil-fuel industries in order to speed society’s transition to renewable, non-polluting sources of energy.

The climate movement has embraced divestment—that is, ditching stocks, bonds or investment funds deemed unethical or morally ambiguous—given how effective the tactic was in helping topple Apartheid in South Africa by shaming the companies still willing to do business there. Other successful divestment campaigns have targeted tobacco as well as companies doing business in the embattled nation of Darfur.

“The fossil fuel industry has our political process in shackles with its financial might,” says Fossil Free, the group that created and organizes Global Divestment Day. “But we are matching their financial might with a different kind of power.

“Through divestment, we are directly challenging the social license of these corporations who have become rogue entities seeking profits at the expense of people and planet.”

Global Divestment Day, the group argues, highlights a conflict that most politicians are loath to address: “If the world is to avoid catastrophic global warming, most known fossil fuel resources need to stay in the ground. Yet fossil fuel companies not only plan to extract and sell their existing

reserves, but are exploring ever more sensitive territory to find new ones, thus ruining any chance of securing a safe planet.”

Fossil Free and other groups and individuals participating in Global Divestment Day are asking portfolio managers to stop adding new investments in fossil fuel companies and to sell off their holdings in the top 200 fossil fuel companies within five years.

To date more than 200 institutions with combined assets topping $50 billion have signed on committing to divest in fossil fuels. Some of the heavy hitters so far include the Rockefeller Brothers Foundation, the British Medical Association, Stanford University and the World Council of Churches.

Meanwhile, a growing chorus of voices from the financial and investment communities agrees that divestment might be the quickest route to mitigating climate change. A senior investment analyst with European investor Axa IM told the Guardian that “moral issues” are playing a role in recent low oil prices “with the divestment movement steadily gaining traction among investors across the globe.”

Fossil Free points out that divestment isn’t so much an economic strategy as a moral and political one.

“Just like in the struggle for Civil Rights here in America or the fight to end Apartheid in South Africa,” the group reports, “The more we can make climate change a deeply moral issue, the more we will push society towards action.” The group adds that divestment also forces prominent institutions and individuals to choose sides, sparking public debate on the topics at stake and raising awareness for doing the right thing. “We need to make it clear that if it’s wrong to wreck the planet,” Fossil Free concludes.

“It’s also wrong to profit from that wreckage.”

Travel Like An Architect

Rauner names new DCFS chief

Think like a kid to make the most of trips

Staff Report Governor Bruce Rauner Friday announced the selection of George Sheldon, 67, as the next Director of the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS).

Sheldon was the Secretary of the Florida Department of Children and Families, the state’s equivalent of DCFS, from 2008-2011. He has been given credit for the turnaround of the organization and has been recognized nationally for his work.

When Sheldon began working for the agency, it was referred to as “the troubled Department of Children and Families.” Three years later, a gubernatorial transition report called it the best-run agency in the state.

Sheldon oversaw $200 million in budget reductions without cutting staff or disrupting services to citizens. He was responsible for a $3 billion budget and workforce of 13,000 employees.

Prior to his work as Secretary, he also worked as an Assistant Secretary for Operations.

Most recently, Sheldon was appointed by President Obama as the Acting Assistant Secretary for the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, a position he held for more than two years until November 2013.

At ACF he was responsible for strengthening the agency’s focus on early-childhood education, finding better ways to support children in foster care and led the first nationwide strategic plan for victims of human trafficking.

Sheldon was a practicing attorney before his work with child and family welfare, working in private practice and for the Florida Attorney General as a Deputy Attorney General for Central Florida.

He was also a member of the Florida House of Representatives from 1974 to 1982.

Sheldon earned his bachelor’s degree and law degree from Florida State University.

o “Travel Like an Architect” you will not want to ditch your kids with grandma.

You actually like them and think it is important to expose them to the architecture and culture of the world. Our built environment sets the stage for our lives.

We build what we need–to do what we do– and we are all just a bit different. Kids think that they aren’t interested in architecture but if you listen to them you will find that they are. What have your kids noticed during your travels?

By stepping out into the world, kids learn that things are not the same everywhere. Travel teaches children to question their beliefs and open their minds.

In exotic locations coffee shops like Starbucks might have a neatly raked dirt floor. People keep monkeys as pets instead of dogs.

If you lived in another country your dad might be a taxi driver. Overhead power lines can get tangled up. Christmas isn’t the most important holiday everywhere.

When it rains the water doesn’t always flow into a storm drain in the street. Streets can be made from blue bricks. Dirt looks different than it does at home.

Some places offer wine to children. A dome in a church might just be painted to look like a dome. Sometimes it rains indoors and that’s okay.

There are some things you just can’t learn in school. Seeing is believing but experiencing takes our understanding to a whole new level.

As architects we believe a vacation should be educational. One year our daughter

missed about 40 days of school due to international travel. She has been down the Amazon River, sailed back to the United States from Santiago Chile and Rome, Italy, stopping at a new city about every other day.

Watch for a future column by Susan for her perspective.

Rob and Lynn Belles are owners of Belles Firm of Architecture, a local professional design firm. They are seasoned travelers with family and adult-only international travel experience. They are teaching others what they know about traveling as a family, a couple and as business owners who stay connected with their clients.

Government Notices & Public Notices Government Notices n n n PUBLIC INFORMATION OPEN HOUSE ROCKFORD METROPOLITAN AGENCY FOR PLANNING (RMAP) LONG-RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLAN A public informational open house will be held at three area locations to present the Draft Year 2040 Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) update for the Rockford Metropolitan Agency for Planning (RMAP). The plan covers anticipated transportation needs in the Rockford Metropolitan Planning Area for the next 30 years.

The plan is a co-operative effort of RMAP, local governments and the Illinois Department of Transportation. Information regarding the plan is available on the RMAP website www.rmapil.org. The Long Range Transportation Plan is updated every five years. The last time the LRTP was updated and adopted by the RMAP Policy Committee was July 29, 2010. This updated version of the LRTP is tentatively scheduled for adoption at the MAP Policy Committee on July 30, 2015 at 1:15 P.M., at Rockford City Hall, 425 East State Street, Rockford, IL. Local, state and federal governments have the responsibility for constructing, operating and maintaining most of the transportation systems in the Rockford Metropolitan Planning Area. This LRTP was developed in the interest of promoting, developing and maintaining a safe and efficient transportation system that will meet the needs of the area’s citizens, businesses and industries through the Year 2040. This LRTP considered a wide range of citizen, community and technical input as well as the views, priorities and strategies expressed in previous plans and documents developed as part of the RMAP planning process over the last 40 years.

This LRTP reflects the goals, priorities and guidance originating from Federal law, especially the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA), the Transportation Efficiency Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21), the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act- A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), and the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21).

As a complement to the LRTP and the Rockford Regional Freight Study, a sub-area transportation hub analysis has been completed in the vicinity of the Chicago – Rockford International Airport (RFD). This site study evaluated possible rail connections from existing transportation facilities in the area but also the feasibility of utilizing other utility infrastructure.

A draft report has been prepared that shows some conceptual plans for this sub-area to develop an intermodal industrial zone.

The overall goal of the plan is to promote a safe and efficient transportation system for people and goods that provide a balanced multi-modal system that minimizes costs and impacts to the taxpayer, society and the environment. The plan addresses the growth projected for the area’s airports, the area’s bicycle and pedestrian facilities, rail service to the region, public transportation issues, maintaining and improving the area’s highway system and public funding issues.

The format of these open houses allows for an informal discussion between the public and RMAP staff.

The times are indicated below.

Your Horoscope

By Denise Guzzardo

Week of Feb. 18-24, 2015 This Week: The New Moon February 18 is once again in Aquarius as it was in January.

This brings forth the truth.

I was thinking about how strange the truth can be the other day after working with one of my clients. They wondered if what someone was saying to them was the “truth” or if they were lying, pertaining to a matter regarding affairs of the heart.

Many times the real answer isnt revolving around whether the person is lying to them. The answer may lie in the fact that the individual isnt being truthful with themselves. In other words during that fleeting moment in time it may feel like the truth to them. For example, they promise they can stop drinking to salvage the relationship or they are certain they can settle down. When fear of loss is a deciding factor it does feel true at the time. Sometimes the spoken word isnt enough, although we think that will hold them to the task, or set it in stone. It has to be up to us to realize that the person may not have the tools to follow through with their vision of the truth and take it from there. Lies are not always what they appear to be. With that said this New Moon arriving on the 18th brings clarity from all levels and a little dose of forgiveness as well.

Aries (March 21 to April 19) — Romantic

elements take a turn for the better at this time, however; it could be in a way that you least expect.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) — Time to push forward and defend your position now, this can be done in a simple sweeping blow. Your getting too caught up in the actions of another, it’s time to take care of yourself. A weekend away “alone” maybe just the trick to create a fresh perspective on your lifestyle.

Olympic offers cold weather resistance

By Nate Johnson Columnist

A

midst the bleakness of winter there is brightness on the horizon as The Olympic Tavern, 2326 N. Main St., hosts several upcoming events that should help rouse beer-drinkers from the seasonal doldrums.

The first of these takes place Thursday as they celebrate Bell’s Brewery’s Hopslam’s return to local taps.

Since 2006, this double IPA has been one of the most enjoyed and sought-after offerings from the popular Michigan brewery.

Weighing in at a solid 10 percent ABV and 70 IBU, filled with malt and honey, and of course generously hopped, this is a beer that will not last long. The Olympic will be tapping their keg at 11 a.m. and once it is gone Hopslam will not be seen again for another year.

Fortunately there are several other excellent choices on tap including another of Bell’s knockouts, their Smitten Ale. One week later, Feb. 26 at 7 p.m., one of the area’s newest breweries will be represented as Freeport’s Generations Brewing Co. and brewmaster Steven Winter will pay a visit to shake hands, kiss babies and introduce locals to some of their beers, including their Wintergreen IPA and Pretzel City Amber.

The fun continues into March as Escondido, California’s Stone Brewing Co. will be the Olympic’s brewery of the month.

Consistently ranked as one of the country’s best craft breweries, Stone’s excellent line will be featured through March, kicked off by a special cask tapping of their GoTo IPA, double dry-hopped with Mosaic hops, March 6 at 4 p.m. Any fan of the west-coast style, especially excellent IPAs, will want to visit early and often.

For those less beer-inclined, or those just in need of a change, the spring session of the Olympic’s twice-a-year Whiskeyfest will take place March 7. The $25 admission ($30 at the door) will satisfy your urge for (more than) a wee nip with samples of over 25 Scotch and Irish whiskies, a whiskey-inspired appetizer buffet and the opportunity to order any of the bottles tasted that day for delivery at the restaurant the next week.

For more information on any of these events or to check up on what’s new on tap visit theolympictavern.com, facebook.com/ theolympictavern, or call 815-962-8758.

Mr. Green Car

Auto Show highlights EVs big and small

By Allen Penticoff Special to TRRT

T

he Chicago Auto Show is the nation’s premier exposition for manufacturers to display their latest products.

Held in the attractive and absolutely huge McCormick Place on the Lake Michigan shoreline, the venue could hold the New York, Los Angeles and Detroit auto shows at once within its vast carpeted space.

First run in 1901, the Auto Show draws hundreds of thousands of visitors each year to inspect and marvel at the new cars. All the auto manufacturers report increased sales after the show, so it is not just a shallow effort.

Concept cars are displayed to get consumer reactions that often leads to their production. If you are reading this and you have not yet gone it will be open through February 22nd this year.

If you don’t like to drive all the way to downtown Chicago you can catch a train in Elgin or Harvard and find a special shuttle bus that goes to McCormick Place from Ogilvie/Union Station.

I have gone to the public show many times in the past; this year marked the first time I attended as a member of the media, offering the chance to drive some of the cars during a “Tech Garage” event on Wednesday before the show and to roam the crowd-free floors.

The Tech Garage is in a big empty hall the size of a shopping mall parking lot. While there were some hot cars there to drive, such as the Mustang and Dodge Charger, I chose not to drive them as there was not enough room to really explore their handling and acceleration potential.

What I did “drive” was this fun little electric three-wheel scooter being sold by Mopar as the Trikke.

Riding it around is like downhill skiing on land. You steer as much with your knees flexing one way or the other as with the handle bar.

It has two power modes: economy, that will provide a 12-mph top speed and 22 miles of

range; and high power, that yields 16-mph top speed and 16 miles of range.

The Trikke recharges in a couple of hours and can fold up to fit in the trunk of most cars. It is priced at just under $2,800 which seems expensive, until you compare it to buying a full-fledged electric car. I just wish I’d had one to ride around the show.

I also got a couple of slow laps in the hydrogen fuel-cell version of the Hyundai Tucson. This was my first drive of a fuel-cell car which, to no surprise, drives like the electric car that it is.

You can buy one for about $50,000 but you’d want to live in California, the only place in the country where you presently can get fuel. It has been available since 2012,but they only delivered 54 of the vehicles in 2014.

The Tech Garage also featured Chevrolet’s all new 2016 Volt on display. Close examination

found that the Volt had been given a complete makeover inside and out, making the styling much more appealing.

Later on I inspected the Cadillac ELR which is the Caddy version of the Volt. While it got talked about, the prototype Chevy “Bolt” was nowhere to be seen. It appears to be similar to a Honda Fit, but will be a pure EV with 200 miles of range and a target price of $30,000.

All the manufacturers are gung-ho and full steam ahead on building more EVs and plug-in hybrids. I spent my time on the floor searching for them and found many.

Nissan had a Leaf with a special paint job that looked much like a white satin house paint, but in fact was “dirt proof.”

The paint’s “superhydrophobic” and “oleophobic” chemicals repel sloppy wet dirt which runs or blows off the finish. Their demonstration was

with chocolate syrup, thus they claimed with its electric drive and dirt free nature to be “The World’s Cleanest Car,” something I think we all could use.

One last treat at the Tech Garage was meeting three young ladies, eighth-graders from Wilmette Junior High, who were driving their Icebox Derby car around.

Sponsored by ComEd, Girl Scouts, Chicago Urban League and Girls4Science the girls get a used refrigerator to convert to an electric car to compete against girls from other schools.

The Icebox Derby cars encourage girls to get involved in science, math and engineering. It looked like they were having a lot of fun driving their entry, “#SonicDoom,” around the big smooth floor and explaining the program to us journalists.

36 The Rock River Times • Feb. 18-24, 2015 Guest columnist Jon Townsend examines how soccer players and coaches can maxmize the benefit of team training in addition to the importance of practicing alone, and how coaches of all sports can learn from the methods of the best clubs in the world.

COACHES

From Back Cover

Christ’s sake, we worked on this in practice.”

After a few minutes of his extempore instruction, I introduce myself. We chat amid his constant interjections while the kids play. “I’m their coach.

That tall one right over there, he’s my son. I tell him every practice, “don’t get beat on the dribble” and “run through the opponent”, and it pisses me off when they don’t listen.”

I refrain from judging this man as it’s clear we see the game differently. Where I see a pickup game, he sees a practice session, which raises a valid question, what’s the difference between soccer practice and training?

Practice vs. Training

Practice is the act of rehearsing a behavior over and over, or repeatedly engaging in an activity for the main purpose of improving or mastering that activity, hence the phrase “practice makes perfect.” Teams practice to prepare for actual games. Playing a new position, formation, or implementing a new tactical philosophy takes a great deal of practice. In essence, practice is a method of learning and of acquiring experience using specific skills rather than learning the specific skills themselves. Practice takes place in a controlled environment designed for rehearsing learned skills and disciplines.

If practice makes perfect, what does training make? Training should be regarded as the acquisition of specific knowledge, skills, and abilities resulting from coaching related to a particular discipline, in this case, soccer. Training’s main goal is lodged in the push for marked and measureable improvement of a player’s performance output. Performance output is the quantitative and often, exhaustive measure of a player’s ability to perform a specific task or a series of tasks. In other words, true training tests performance inputs such as: a player’s capability and capacity to learn combined with new concept retention derived from the demonstration of maximal levels of productivity and performance in taskbased activities by a player. Technical work falls into the training category, while a player’s use of that technical ability is true practice.

To better illustrate functional training across athletic disciplines, frame a soccer players’s training session in the context of competitive runner’s or weightlifter’s training session. In each discipline, the training session is like a metaphorical bucket of water the athlete has to carry around. When the training starts, a small hole is cut into the bucket and water, a player’s ability to train, starts pouring out. Players have a limited amount of time in a training session until their ability to train (the water) runs out. At the end of a functional training session a player should feel as though they’ve been physically and mentally pushed. The increased frequency and duration an athlete can train well when they’re depleted, the fitter, stronger, and better they become over time.

Mastery

A misconception with functional training revolves around the idea of mastery. Less talented players have no idea what mastery is while good players dip a toe into the waters of mastery, but stop short of prolonged immersion training and fail to exit their comfort zone. Elite players make mastery their training objective and exist entirely out of their comfort zone. These exceptional players account for the smallest percentage of players and recognize that existing in their comfort zone is a recipe for plateauing. All skillsets in soccer require players to learn, retain, practice, and perfect the basics. There’s no way around this process. Depending on age and ability, learning the basics to the point of mastery is true progress.

Naturally, players will cut corners, fall behind, plateau, or quit attempting to progress without learning the basics. Good players survive on effort, better players thrive on ability.

Surviving on effort will only take a player so far. Valuing effort over skill and technique can hamper a player’s progress. Such appraisals result in disproportional attitudes of proficiency.

For example, what’s exceptional for Team A might be the “entry fee” for Team B. In short, Team B will have more success than Team A. With all this talk of training, one mustn’t ignore the primary “X” factor or variable: talent.

Players lacking coordination and balance, creativity, confidence, resilience, and who refuse to be challenged or are simply unable to challenge themselves, plateau and are simply passed up and left behind by the game. Regardless of their developmental stage, players can only cover up technical deficiencies for so long. Far too often, coaches use practice to institute training basics thus undermining total team progression.

For example, a coach who decides to dedicate structured practice time to modify drills and accommodate an inadequate technical level in a drill is better off dedicating training time for such skill competencies.

Although contact time with players and teams is limited, coaches habitually opt to shoehorn too many different soccer competencies into one session. Consider an exercise focusing on “playing out of the back.” On the surface this is a simple drill. However, with players who don’t check their shoulder, can’t pivot on the ball, take a positive first touch, assess the play, and pass the ball proficiently, the practice is no longer about “playing out of the back.” Rather, it’s now a required training session to address technical problem areas and allow time for specific skill repetition. In addition to coaching feedback, the onus is on players to self-identify areas of their game they need to improve.

According to documentation from a seminar conducted by France’s World Cup-winning coach, Aimé Jacquet, (who also oversaw the progress of France’s golden generation) up until the age of 16, promising French players focus largely on individual technique. Each player under the FFF tutelage is required to form a relationship with the ball. Improvement in their touch, passing, shooting, and dribbling must occur before tactics are introduced - the central idea being players must be good with both feet and be able play with their head up at speed.

Much criticism can be traced backEnglish and American ideals placing too much emphasis on physique and physical tools and not enough on technique.

According to Jacquet, players must spend two hours a day, five days a week on their skills.

Without the frontloading of this training, players won’t play with the speed and creativity to excel. Taking observations from Alfred Galustian’s methodology, team success comes down to the abilities of individual players.

When the parts of the machine are faulty, the machine doesn’t function as well. In academy settings across Europe the alignment with the belief in technique-based development at young ages indicates skill without speed is useless. By the time a player is 15-16-years-old, it’s the game that threatens to leave them behind.

Practice sessions at top professional academies stem from basic tasks carried out with speed, intensity, and require players to carry out movements under duress with higher rates of success (output). This can’t happen with technically deficient players. The complexity of a top-level drill is layered on mastery of the basics.

Examining the French Football Federation’s approach to player development, the differences between training and practice are evident in Thierry Henry’s (pictured) development. Henry began training at Clairefontaine at 13, where the technical aspects of the game were emphasized over physical work. Repeated skill work in isolated sessions expedited his route to technical mastery. This process enabled Henry to learn and master skills away from match play before using them in matches.

Talking Points

Both practice and training sessions require a balanced ratio of instruction and activity performance. Self-analysis allows coaches to think of all the wasted moments in a practice or training session lost to the unnecessary. Players and coaches don’t get that time back. In any team practice there’s plenty of “down time”, a byproduct of verbose coaching, distracted players off to the side, and “drill killers” - players lacking the

focus, technical ability, and performance competency to execute the tasks the drill requires.

When players with inadequate technical ability are made to perform tasks outside of their skill set and repeatedly fail to play to the standards the drill demands, the issue is two-fold. Firstly, the drills must align with the ability of the collective, not the most skilled player, on the team, the outlier. It’s not uncommon for coaches to introduce drills well above the ability level of the players.

Secondly, the player must improve on their time, not the team’s time.

In reviewing the youth academy structure at Real Madrid, the 7-9 age group follows an ethos built on a one ball per player philosophy ensuring young kids with short attention spans learn the importance of balance, get maximum ball touches with all surfaces with both feet, and coordination training in an age where individuality develops. At this age, players care about their individual place in relation to the larger group (the team). With regards to attention span, it’s defined as the “amount of concentrated time and individual spends on a task without becoming distracted.” This makes coach verbosity problematic. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information housed in the U.S. National Library of Medicine, the average attention span of adolescents (not seven to nine year olds) in 2014 was eight seconds. To put that in perspective, coaches lose the attention of their players within the first 15 seconds of verbal delivery. Throw in the chaos and action of playing and that finding oscillates between 8 and 12 seconds.

It’s evident that stagnation is cancerous to both practice and training sessions. Stagnation is the result of inaccurate coaching prompts and inadequate coaching, so unless there’s more value in players watching a drill, those not directly involved gain little from standing off to the side for prolonged periods of time. Bored players become disinterested players, which can curtail the session for everyone. Effective coaching methods require players to engage in “secondary involvement.” Players engaged in active recovery periods should be tasked with ball work as opposed to standing idly by while their peers continue to play. Quoting Manchester United’s Assistant Academy Director, Tony Whelan, “Seven to ten is the golden age of learning, so we work on their technique at a young age.” At Real Madrid, stagnation occurs when “games of interest” are shelved for overly-complicated drills and activities. In both academies, the philosophy is carried out patient consistency. Young player are not young adults.

In observing top academy training sessions, it’s clear coach talking is held to a consistent minimum. When coaches calculate the amount of time they talk while during stoppages of play, much can be derived from practiced habit.

There’s a valuable phrase: “Coaches can say a million things by saying nothing at all.” Observation is much more effective than a constant stream of white noise play-by-play on behalf of the coach.

The Rock River Times • Feb. 18-24, 2015 At Ajax, and Liverpool’s famed youth training facility in Kirkby, coaches allow players to work on their communication, maximizing on the ability to listen to inter-squad telling instead of hyper-correcting every nuance of the practice.

Stateside, I watched two different academies practice on separate occasions and totaled 23 and 27 minutes of “down time” during each 90-minute session. My observation isn’t to devalue the role of coach instruction during practice, but that’s a significant amount of time that can’t be recovered. At top academies, direct instruction never leads to coaches performing the drill for the players, nor is it time for soapbox grandstand lectures. Additionally, indirect instruction is not “silent time” or guised as an opportunity for snide, sarcastic, and unproductive remarks to the team.

Homework

In direct observation of academy training sessions at PSV Eindhoven, Ajax, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Club Atlas, the biggest reason for stagnation in a practice or training session stemmed from three things. Set-piece training, lengthy direct instruction, and post-error hyper-corrective lectures, each of which are the biggest time thieves of a soccer training session.

If set-pieces are part of the team’s tactical plan and integral to its success, players shouldn’t be introduced to “new” set-pieces during a training session. Instead, they should be provided details ahead of time in an absorbable format. Coaches who present, explain, and teach set-pieces in advance equip players with an opportunity to learn concepts before actual practice. A major takeaway from each academy was players are responsible for being well-versed on the session’s objectives; coaches are responsible for giving them the means to make this happen.

Every player has something to improve. A common practice in traditional settings is to simply hand a player a piece of paper with a workout, which means nothing if the players aren’t incentivized to follow through with the prescribed workout. At top academies, assessment comes in all forms. At Club Atlas, for example, it was made clear no coach can improve for the players. It was also evident the best players were usually those willing to address weaknesses and turn them into strengths with more frequency than their teammates and opponents.

With young players, ability and confidence are not mutually exclusive. In an article by Henry Winter in 2005 based on Manchester United’s youth academy’s implementation of small-sided games, René Meulensteen, at the conclusion of training session, gathered the U9s together in a circle and said, “You all have the ability, but do you have the confidence to play in front of 10,000 people, 20,000, 30,000? Use all your time training. Don’t waste it. Learn. Train hard, work hard. Take responsibility.”

Consistency

Recall the comparison of practice and training sessions with serious running and weightlifting regimens. Effective programs yielding the best performance output are similar to weekly training plans in distance running or Olympic weight lifting. The reality is athletes failing to follow a plan from start to finish seldom reach performance goals

expeditiously, if at all. For instance, marathon runners who can’t follow a training plan, with all of its idiosyncrasies like tempo and distance runs, speed work, strength training, agility exercises, will find actual racing (competition) extremely difficult.

There’s a reason people refer to strength exercises as “strength training” not “strength practice.” This is because the specific training is geared towards an athlete’s ability to address their weaknesses en route to yielding maximum performance output. Athlete A can’t lift weights so Athlete B can reap the benefits just as soccer players can’t put the extra time in training with any hope to improve their teammates. Coaches and players who institute plans and see them to completion understand the value of consistency regarding performance output. Progress and improvement are gained in chunks of time. For instance, let’s say the majority of fitness, skill-based, and strength programs last around six weeks. More often than not, players and coaches fail to see plans through from start to finish for various reasons. But, even if it’s a catastrophe, it’s still only six weeks out of a player’s life.

Fundamentally, soccer development isn’t rigid and progressive like development in other sports. With so many factors affecting progress and with more players subjected to thorough vetting processes, the development of measurable training histories has become more common. For example, if a player has been training for ten years, how many sixweek periods do they have in their training history? The answer is approximately 86 individual training sessions over a ten year span. The reason viewing training this way holds significance is because traditional team practice sessions don’t focus on the individual, nor should they. Theoretically, a player needs to be on the right developmental path for around ten years (or 10,000 hours) before the game threatens to pass them by. Players who start playing in the six to eight-year old age range will ideally be prepared to play at whatever the appropriate “next” level is by the time they’re 16-18.

Of course, a player’s development is littered with unknowns. Team practices will not address the needs of individuals the way individual training will. Conversely, training is not a replacement for practice. The two are supplementary to one another. The players who lead their talent pools tend to be dominant because of flawless mechanics and consistency. Skill sports demand a high degree of repeatable delivery of a skill on a consistent basis. Regardless of the level of soccer, there is a stark difference between training and practice.

SNL’s sporting legacy is the stuff of legend

By Doug Halberstadt Columnist

I’m still getting used to the idea of not watching football all day on Sundays.

This past Sunday night, instead of watching the NFL game of the week, like millions of other Americans I tuned into the Saturday Night Live 40th Anniversary Special.

That prompted me to try and recall all of the athletes and sports people that have hosted the iconic show.

Peyton Manning was my personal favorite and the first person who came to mind. His self-deprecating humor was a perfect fit for the program. I’m a bit surprised he hasn’t hosted the show more than once.

There are only two athletes/sporting figures who’ve hosted multiple shows: Basketball superstar-turned commentator Charles Barkley has hosted three times and so has professional wrestler Duane “The Rock” Johnson.

Michael Jordan would have to be my second favorite SNL host. His appearance with Al Franken in the Stuart Smalley’s Daily Affirmations sketch where he proclaimed, “I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and doggone it, people like me” became an instant classic.

When I looked at the roster of the 35

SOUTH BELOIT ROCKTON ROSCOE ROCKTON TOWNSHIP

sports figures who have hosted the show I was amazed at the variety of people. Hall of fame quarterback Fran Tarkenton was the first athlete to host back in 1977. The following season, another professional football player hosted the show: O. J. Simpson became the second host from the world of sports. He went on to make bigger headlines elsewhere Howard Cosell, John Madden, Billy Martin, Bob Uecker and Walter Payton were all hosts during the 1980s.

In 1989 tennis sensation Chris Evert became the first ever female athlete to host.

Since Evert there has only been one other female athlete to host the show, Olympic figure skater Nancy Kerrigan in 1994.

She is joined by swimmer Michael Phelps as the only Olympians to host. He took the SNL stage in 2008.

A Manning was the most recent athlete to host the show. Not Peyton, though. It was his brother Eli who hosted in May of 2012.

That was three seasons ago; it’s about time SNL invited another athlete to host.

If I were producer Lorne Micheals, I think I’d give Tiger Woods a call.

I hear he’s not doing much these days.

Hope springs eternal (again) at Wrigley

By Doug Halberstadt Columnist

While the temperatures around here are proclaiming that winter is still alive and well it’s somewhat hard to believe that Major League Baseball is right around the corner.

The Chicago Cubs’ pitchers and catchers report to spring training Thursday and the full team reports next week.

For us long-time–or even perhaps lifetime–Cubs fans this is the time of year where excitement reigns supreme. How many times have we endured the “This is our year.” line?

It seems like every season our hopes get ratcheted up a few notches.

I know you’ve heard this before but I really think this year those hopes are justified.

New manager Joe Madden has a proven track record of success. He’s actually one who’s been there and done that and has solid plans on doing it again. He’s the best manager the franchise has seen in a very long time.

There’s a quality pitching staff to be excited about, provided they all stay healthy. Jon Lester, Jake Arrieta, Jason Hammel and Kyle Hendricks could easily reach double-digit numbers in the win column.

Shortstop Starlin Castro and first baseman Anthony Rizzo anchor the infield. They combined for only 24 errors last season and both showed signs of improvement at the plate.

Rizzo racked up 32 home runs, a career high and good for second in the National League. With solid hitters in front of him in 2015 his RBI total should jump from last year’s 78 mark.

The guy that’s a bit of a sleeper and could end up making a world of difference for this year’s squad is catcher Miguel Montero. A proven veteran coming over from the Arizona Diamondbacks, he’s a solid backstop (.991 career fielding average) that is very capable of handling the pitching staff, having the reputation as an intelligent receiver and knowing how to call a game from behind the plate.

Dexter Fowler is slated to play centerfield and captain the outfield. Last year in Houston he had an on-base percentage of .375, good for ninth in the NL. There’s little doubt that the team reporting to spring training this year is vastly improved from prior years. Whether or not the final product turns out to be as good as everyone is predicting remains to be seen.

That won’t be known for sure until the end of the 162-game regular season in October.

The one thing in late February that does seem to be certain is this year there really are some genuine reasons to be optimistic about the upcoming season.

GO CUBS, GO.

The second period displayed some good scoring opportunities for both teams, however, a more conservative approach led to neither team tallying a goal in the middle frame.

Rockford’s special teams unit came through again, this time with the man advantage. Captain Nordstrom dropped a clutch goal 4:07 into the period to give Rockford their second lead of the game.

The IceHogs fought off the Admirals late surges to hang on for a 2-1 win, and more important, close the gap between the two teams in the Divisional race.

Scott Darling played well in net against his former team, covering for some defensive gaffes on Rockford’s end, and stopped all second and third period shots to earn his 12th win of the season.

The following night Rockford returned back home for the second of three games in three days, this time against the Western Conference leading Oklahoma City Barons. The Barons have been slightly depleted recently as their parent club, the Edmonton Oilers, have suffered some injuries, resulting in players being called up. In addition to losing four players to call-ups, the Barons have also cooled off as of late, riding a 4-4-2 record in their last 10 games.

Rockford’s power play started off where they finished the previous night, tallying a power play marker on their first opportunity of the evening.

With Kellen Jones in the box for the Barons, Ville Pokka tallied his seventh goal of the season (fifth on the power play) off a great feed from Teravainen. The cross-ice pass from Teravainen was a one-timer, shot from the left face-off circle, past Barons goaltender Laurent Brossoit for the 1-0 lead.

At one point in the period, Rockford was outshooting the Barons 9-1. It wasn’t until over eight minutes had expired in the first period that the Barons would get their first shot on net.

Oklahoma City started to catch up to Rockford in the shots department, but were unable to fire a puck past Michael Leighton in the first 20.

It looked as if the second period would be another stalemate for both teams, but Brandon

Mashinter potted his ninth goal of the season with 1:03 left in the period to give Rockford a big 2-0 lead. Pokka fired the puck at the net from the right blue line, which Brossoit kicked away. The puck came out to the left slot, where an unmanned Mashinter fired into the open side of the net.

An early third period goal from Andrew Miller, his 17th of the season, closed the gap to one. Dillon Simpson fired a shot from the left blue line, which Miller deflected past Leighton.

Less than four minutes later, Rockford traded a tit-for-a-tat when Peter Regin, who had been on a cold streak for the last few weeks, deflected a Zach Miskovic shot into the net to give the ‘Hogs a big 3-1 lead.

The IceHogs clamped down in as the period moved on as their first few lines hemmed Oklahoma City in their own end most of the period.

Despite Rockford being outshot 10-7, Leighton stopped the rest of the shots in the period enroute to earning the win, and first star of the game honors.

For the final game of their three-in-three weekend, Rockford played host to the San Antonio Rampage for the first time this season. Rockford won both games they played against the Rampage around Halloween, and coming into the game, Rockford held a slight two point advantage over their Texan rivals. The Rampage, however, have one game in hand on Rockford, so a win would give

Rockford a big advantage in the playoff standings.

The same player who scored the game-winning goal the previous night, Mashinter, opened up the scoring by tallying his second goal in as many games when he fired a shot from a wide-open position in the slot. Regin carried the puck in deep behind the net and found Mashinter who came in uncontested and fired a snipe behind Dan Ellis to give Rockford the early 1-0 lead.

Both teams were tied with shots at 11-11 after 20 minutes. Each team had one power play opportunity, but neither team was able to convert on the advantage.

The Rampage carried the pace most of the second period and managed to tally the tying goal 6:42 into the second period. Connor Brickley scored his 17th marker of the season on a dish from Mark Mancari, knotting the score at 1-1. The IceHogs managed to put more pressure on later in the period and closed the shots-on-goal gap, but the Rampage held a slight advantage at 12-10.

Midway through the final period, Cody Bass converted on an excellent wrap-around attempt to put Rockford ahead once again. After Bass celebrated by going to one knee for a fist-pump, he jumped into the glass and was subsequently surrounded by his linemates, including the recently acquired Dane Walters, who was credited with the primary assist.

Rockford kept possession and was dumping the puck deep as often as possible to keep the Rampage pinned into their own zone. The plan worked and Rockford fought off the Rampage late to hang on for a 2-1 victory. The win sealed Rockford’s third win in three straight days, including holding all three teams to only one goal in each game, which included the Rampage, who ranked first in the league with 163 goals per game and the Barons who rank third in the league with 157.

Rockford stays at home for another game against the Rampage with an early 10:30 Wednesday start time for their annual School Day game. After the home game, Rockford will play four straight on the road with a two-game series on Friday and Saturday against the Lake Erie Monsters. After the Wednesday, February 18 game, Rockford will not play another home game until Friday, March 6 when they face the Oklahoma City Barons.

Training vs. Practice

he narrow footpath widens as I approach the now abandoned soccer pitch.

At my foot is a scuffed soccer ball and in tow are my two nephews aged five and nine. My nephews have just returned from Ireland and brought with them a new love for soccer. The moment I show up to visit my parents in suburban Chicago where I spent my formative years, the boys remind me of my promise to take them out for a kick-about. The older of the two, Liam, looks across the plot of land

Teravainen returns from Chicago as IceHogs take 3-of-3

and asks, “This is where you used to play?” I nod and think about how, in many ways, TheseFootballTimes.net the game is the same as it’s always been; simple in theory and complex in execution.

The question threatens to put me at the mercy of nostalgia. In the fifteen years since I last played at this particular park, it’s clear much has changed.

Where there was once a well-manicured pitch, lined and occupied by nomadic groups playing “Jumpers for

Goalposts” is now a green expanse, more meadow than soccer pitch.

As we play, four neighborhood kids, probably 10 or 11-years old, show up and ask to join in the ruckus.

I take up a spot on nearby bench to watch when a man with a stern expression on his face shows up. Within seconds of his arrival, he instantly starts coaching the new additions to the kick-about. “You gotta pass the ball, Brandon,” he shouts. I continue to watch in silence when I hear, “You can’t let him beat you to the ball. For See COACHES on Page 36

Special to TRRT

Just when the Rockford IceHogs began to falter and drop in the standings, the team got the spark they were looking for with the addition of some key players in Teuvo Teravainen and Captain Joakim Nordstrom. Teravainen spent the last three weeks playing for the Chicago Blackhawks, replacing the injured Kris Versteeg, and Nordstrom has been up with Chicago since December, skating in 24 games as a shutdown center.

The two players would make an immediate impact their first game back, which was Friday, February 13 at the BMO Harris Bradley Center against the Milwaukee Admirals, for the third straight game. Milwaukee won the first two games and managed to take over the divisional lead.

While shorthanded for the first time, Phillip Danault scored his second shorthanded goal in as many games to give Rockford a 1-0 lead. Danault tracked down a puck deep in the offensive zone and fired an off-angle shot at the net, which Marek Mazanec blocked to the opposite boards. The rubber came straight to Stephen Johns, who immediately fired it at the net. Danault, who was skating towards the net, redirected the Johns shot behind Mazanec for the 1-0 lead.

On the same power play, Milwaukee’s Triston Grant potted his ninth goal of the season to even the score up at 1-1.
