BRUSSELS ATTACKED

Police hunt suspect after ISIS claims responsibility

A throwback to pre-9/11 terrorist tactics on display By Steve Hewitt

TheConversation.com

See ATTACKS on Page 8

he terrible scenes in Brussels following a terrorist attack now claimed by Islamic State are a reminder of just how vulnerable airports can be. In the years since the September 11 attacks in the US in 2001, a clear priority of western security agencies has been to protect airlines from bombings and hijackings. And, of course, this threat is real and has been persistent. This attack in Belgium is something of a throwback to the pre-9/11 era. The fact that it occurred in the unsecured section of a major airport is significant and will raise difficult questions for the authorities. There is a long history of unsecured parts of airports being the targets of political violence. In the 1970s and 1980s, there were numerous

high-profile attacks involving guns at airports. In 1972, members of the Japanese Red Army killed 26 people at Lod Airport (now Ben Gurion Airport) in Tel Aviv. In December 1985, terrorists simultaneously attacked the Rome and Vienna airports, killing 19 people in the process and wounding more than 100 more. And indeed, there have been such attacks more recetnly. There is resonance with the 2011 suicide attack at Moscowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s airport in which 37 people were killed by a bomber while waiting for those arriving on flights. And with the 2008 Glasgow Airport attack in which two men crashed a car containing a petrol bomb into an airport building â&#x20AC;&#x201C; although no one other than one of the attackers died.

Students turned away at polls

By Kira Lerner

ThinkProgress.org

Students at Wheaton College were looking forward to voting — many for the first time — in last Tuesday’s presidential primary. But instead of exercising their constitutional right, many students were threatened, intimidated, and turned away from the polls without a reasonable explanation. One polling location near the college campus did not allow hundreds of students to register to vote on Tuesday, despite the state’s new sameday registration law, because one election judge claimed it would take too much time to register all of them. Others were turned away because they did not have Illinois identification, or because of confusion about polling locations. One poll worker threatened to arrest students who were waiting in a long line to be registered toward the end of the day. “What was really frustrating to me was that it just seemed like it was honestly intentional voter suppression,” Moriah Gonzalez, a senior at Wheaton College, told ThinkProgress. Gonzalez said she and a number of other students were involved in efforts to encourage students to get out and vote — and register to vote — on Election Day. Illinois’ new “grace period” registration law allows voters to register and vote on the same day, at their polling locations. “We were informing students and they were getting really excited about it,” she said. “On voting day we made a big push, and students started coming out. They were really, really excited to register and vote.” Gonzalez said it was particularly noteworthy that students of many political leanings were coming together for this shared goal in a town like Wheaton, which she describes as “polarizing and evangelical.” But some students say that when they showed up at the polling location within walking distance of their campus, election judge David Liddy wouldn’t allow them to register. Some were denied because Illinois law requires voters to provide proof of their physical address, but they only had documents with their P.O boxes, where they receive mail on campus. Though Liddy had the right to deny these students until they provided proof of their physical address, Gonzalez said she saw 35 to 40 students turned away for this reason without a full explanation of the documentation they would need in order to register. “This was happening throughout the course of the day,” Gonzalez said. “Students were frustrated.” According to a video captured by one student, Liddy laughed at the fact that students were being turned away.

“If I’m unable to register you all today, first of all, I want to thank you all for being interested and involved in voting,” Liddy told a group of students gathered at the polling place. “Plus 1,000. Minus 10,000 for waiting until the last minute to do it.” “He was really reprimanding the students,” Gonzalez said. But students say he denied others who did not have Illinois ID cards, even though Illinois law allows voters to register with out-of-state ID. Drew Chambers, a Wheaton student from Virginia, told ThinkProgress that Liddy denied his attempt to register with his pay stub, bank statement, student ID, and license — sufficient identification under Illinois law. “Liddy quickly asked me what state my license was issued in and when I said Virginia, he promptly told me that he would not register me, that I was a resident of Virginia, and to go vote there,” Chambers said in an email. “He was visibly

Tuesday evening with the required identification information, she was told she could not be registered because the line was too long. “I don’t remember [Liddy’s] exact words, but he said that he was understaffed and that election officials were not responding to his phone calls for reinforcement,” she said. “He then said that if we wanted to vote, he could not register us and we needed to go to the DuPage Election Commissioner’s office. He said he was sorry but that we needed to leave.” Gonzalez said at that point, there was still more than hour until the polls closed. “The election judge said ‘absolutely not,’” she said. “He said, ‘I don’t have enough time to process all of you.’” Caitlin McNamara, a 25-year old senior at Wheaton College, said that a man working the line at the polling location “clearly had a terribly long day” because he threatened to arrest all of the Wheaton College students standing in line, “not making any fuss.” “He raised his voice and he was like, ‘You know what? If you don’t stop the sass and attitude, then I’m going to have you arrested,’” McNamara said. Students were growing impatient because there was only one person entering students’ information into one malfunctioning computer to register them, she said, but there was absolutely no reason to threaten arrest. She called the poll workers’ accusations “unjust” and “completely off-base.” At that point, Gonzalez directed everyone to the Election Commission, which was still permitting people to register and vote and ended up extending voting hours to allow all of the students to vote. “After he has basically turned all the students away, there was a huge migration of students over to the Election Commission,” Gonzalez said. “I’m going to guess there was near 200, probably over 200, just at one time that came at once. And at this point there’s under an hour until the polls close.” Garringer, Chambers, and Gonzalez were later able to vote at the Election Commission office, but Garringer said she knows of many other students who were not able to vote because they could not find a ride. Liddy declined ThinkProgress’ request for comment, and directed all inquiries to the DuPage County Election Commission. Assistant Executive Director Joe Sobecki said the college’s last-minute voter registration drive led to an “inordinately high number of registrations that had to be done,” which caused the long lines and issues at the polling location. He said he could not comment on the specific situation in Wheaton, but said he has received complaints about the issue and that voters without Illinois ID should not have been denied. He attributed the issues to an Illinois-wide problem with staffing election judges.

He said ‘I don’t have enough time to process all of you.’ flustered and asked me, ‘Who’s telling you these things? You can’t vote here!’ When I said that I had researched the situation myself and heard from student groups on campus and that it was my right to register in my home state or my college state, he replied, ‘Oh, so it’s just a rumor flitting around campus? It’s just gossip. Let me tell you, it’s not true.’” Chambers said that when he pressed Liddy and told him he would not be voting in Virginia, where the presidential primary had already occurred, Liddy again shot down his effort to register. “He said, “Unless you can show me an Illinois license, you aren’t a resident, you can’t vote, and I cannot register you. And now I have to tell all your friends who are just as wrong, so have a good day,’” Liddy said, according to Chambers. Hannah Garringer, a sophomore at Wheaton College from Wisconsin, also told ThinkProgress that Liddy denied her attempt to register Tuesday morning because she did not have an Illinois state ID. “I also talked to other students that this had been happening to and realized that we had been illegally refused registration,” she said. Garringer, like many other students, then received an email from the college with verification of her dorm address and clarification that students could vote in Illinois, where they attend school. The DuPage County Election Commission also told students that one proof of identity and proof of Illinois address is sufficient to register to vote. But when Garringer returned to the polling place

THROWBACK From Page 4

And in 2013, Paul Ciancia walked into Los Angeles International, one of the busiest airports in the world with a .223 calibre assault rifle. He approached the security screening section of the airport – the area designed to prevent terrorists from being able to take weapons on airplanes – and attacked the Transportation Security Administration agents working there. One agent was mortally wounded and three others, including two TSA agents, suffered wounds. Ciancia’s attack was brought to an end when he was shot by TSA agents, but he survived and went to trial. A letter he carried with him on the day made it clear that he had intended to kill TSA agents and police in order to “instil fear in your traitorous minds.”

What now?

The horrendous damage done in Brussels Zavantem airport, and the number of people dead or injured, show just how vulnerable airports can be to terrorism. The primary focus of airport security, particularly since the attacks of 9-11, is preventing terrorists from being able to board aeroplanes. But airports, especially their unsecured areas, represent “soft targets”. This is a clear problem from a security perspective, particularly in democratic societies, as airports along with rail systems and underground/subway networks, including of the type attacked in Brussels are premised on the rapid movement of large numbers of people, particularly during rush hours. In a single day, for instance, an estimated 4.3m people use the New

York Subway system. It is simply not feasible to bring in mandatory security checks for all riders. The system would grind to a halt. After the Glasgow Airport attack, the UK restricted access to airports to people with vehicles. Passengers now have to be dropped a safe distance from the terminals. But the attack in Brussels shows that the vulnerability remains. Some airports, such as the one in Beirut, require security screening before passengers can even go to check-in desks. Is that a feasible solution for major airports such as Heathrow whereby passengers and others are screened before they are even allowed to enter buildings? How far will a security corridor have to be extended and what happens when the new security barrier is attacked? A more likely and realistic response is increasing security presence around

airports with a greater number of random checks. There is no foolproof solution to this security issue, though, and that’s something governments are going to have to admit. Terrorists have the ability radically disrupt transportation systems, potentially causing loss of life and economic damage in the process, and there is little that can be done to stop them. For some time, terrorists pursued the much more difficult task of attacking aircraft while largely ignoring easier targets. The attack in Brussels shows the reality of renewed efforts against “soft targets” with the potential to bring about chaos to transportation systems.

Energy & Environment

Peak oil delayed but far from over By Drs. Robert & Sonia Vogl

President and Vice President, Illinois Renewable Energy Association

ome analysts say peak oil is over and the current global supply of oil proves it. A closer look suggests peak oil remains an issue but it is occurring differently than had been projected. The peak oil concept was based on the scientific understanding that the amount of conventional, low cost oil in the ground is finite and at some point will be depleted. The late Shell geologist, M. King Hubbert, illustrated that the rate of petroleum production from an oil field increases until reaching a peak and then declining gradually. Production follows a bell shaped curve. In 1956 Hubbert successfully predicted that oil production from conventional wells in the United States would peak in 1970. Later he predicted that global supplies of low cost conventional oil would peak around 2000. It is suggested that conventional global supplies of oil peaked in 2005. Conventional low cost oil is produced from wells that are drilled straight down into the ground. Once developed they produce oil for decades with no significant new investment needed yielding low cost oil. Hubbert’s concern was that with dwindling

low cost conventional oil supplies economic growth would end producing severe social stress. As low cost conventional oil decreased, investments in unconventional supplies increased. These energy sources are more costly to secure, use more energy to produce, carry higher levels of risk and are of lower quality. Securing them also releases higher levels of climate changing gases while polluting air and water supplies. Art Berman, a director of the Study of Peak Oil, points out that we are not running out of oil but out of affordable oil. In 2015 US crude oil production approached 9.5 mb/day, nearing levels of the 1970s peak. In recent years roughly half of the oil produced in the United States has come from unconventional oil sources. The new wells supply oil on average for only three to four years with half coming during the first year of operation. In order to continue producing oil, additional costly horizontal drilling and fracking operations must continue. The oil produced is far more costly than conventional oil. On average oil shale operations need $60 to $70 barrel to be profitable, so with oil around $30, many firms are going bankrupt and production is dropping. Rapid development of fracking operations was

based on large pools of money available from the sale of risky bonds offering high yields. Repayment of the loans depended on the price of oil remaining high. By continuing to develop more wells to sustain production and pay off the loans, when demand for oil dropped, a surplus developed which crashed its price. The low price of oil and gas is forcing major cutbacks in exploring and developing new energy supplies. Global investments in new projects de-

clined for two consecutive years setting the stage for higher prices in the future. Since the new supplies will come from nonconventional sources, the concern of running out of affordable oil will impact society. The question is how to use this temporary surplus of low cost oil. Should it be used to expand the global oil infrastructure or should it be used to create a more sustainable energy system based on efficiency and renewable supplies?

Could music projects cut the cost of dementia care? The Music Academy launched its “Encore: Talent Education” program at Lincolnshire Place, a memory care residence in Loves Park last fall. Each week we work with 40 Alzheimer’s and dementia clients. Our vision is to have well trained, professional artists using a rigorous, structured curriculum with measurable outcomes to implement participatory educational programs for older adults. We see the arts are vital to healthy aging. Our view of creating community nurtures successful aging and embraces: Living with a sense of purpose, joy and a sense of well-being; dealing effectively with life’s changes and challenges; sustaining positive, meaningful, dynamic relationships. Our view of dementia is as a loss of self and social identity, rather than the more common view of it as a loss of creative and cognitive skills. Similar work is being done in England. And now, The Guardian reports that academics are studying what effect music classes (similar in philosophy and methodology to those offered by The Music Academy) offered by Manchester Camerata’s Music in Mind (MiM) are having on the people who may not be able to communicate with words. This is about coming up with the proof that there is more to music in a dementia context than just entertainment. Alzheimer’s is a massive health and social care challenge to which management approaches are

needed in a cash-strapped world. The hope of the researchers is to produce a means of measuring an individual’s experience of connection – of self and of social identity. Evaluation of MiM clients paints a consistent picture of better communication, happier and more cooperative patients, and suggests the music participation may lead to a reduction in medication required. They are even asking themselves if whether the right kind of music projects actually cut the cost of dementia care. Program Officer for England’s Tameside Public Health and a dementia champion, is clear: “This work leaves a lasting impression. The money Tameside is spending on 30-week music sessions is money well spent. Everyone should be doing it.” In the United States, 10,000 people are turning 65 every day. Old age, once considered a time of frailty and loss, is becoming a time of potential, with people living longer, healthier lives with new meaning and purpose. The full impact of this demographic shift offers unique challenges and opportunities. Our experience at Lincolnshire, where we have witnessed formerly mute dementia patients break into song, and where we enjoying taking patients into our arms and dancing with them, is teaching us that for many people with dementia, a well-articulated music and arts-related curriculum delivered by well-trained artist faculty members can make a

real difference to their sense of self, well being and quality of life. The Music Academy of Rockford is a notfor-profit community school of music dedicated to providing high-quality, affordable instruction and performance opportunities to Academy students, regardless of age or ability. The Music Academy’s mission is to inspire a life-long love of music and the arts in its students.

RAM launches endowment fund campaign

The Rockford Art Museum Board of Trustees officially launched the I AM RAM campaign to support growth for the museum’s endowment fund today, with a goal set for $500,000. Trustee Anita Layng announced the launch Tuesday, followed by the announcement by trustee Lisa Lindman of major pledged gifts to the fund by two local donors that total $250,000. The combined gift, made by the Lon and Dick Behr Foundation and the Funderburg Foundation, means the campaign has already reached its halfway mark. Endowment Committee Chair Rob Funderburg invited the community to participate by contributing to the fund. Rockford Art Museum was established by the community in 1913 to help make life better in the Rockford region through a permanent art collection, frequent art exhibitions, and lifelong art education – a mission it adheres to today. “The Board of Trustees began the RAM Endowment Fund to help ensure lasting financial support, now and for future generations,” said Linda Dennis, executive director of Rockford Art Museum. Donations may be made to the fund several ways, including online at rockfordartmuseum. org, by phone at 815-968-2787, or by mail to RAM at 711 N. Main St., Rockford, IL 61103. RAM’s current exhibit, The Wonderful World of Stephen Warde Anderson, featured on this week’s cover, is on view through May 30. –Rockford Art Museum

The House of Blue Leaves: a follow-up

By Bill Beard Contributor

few months ago, I wrote about The Rocky Horror Show, as produced by a relatively new group in town, the (usual) Suspects. I complimented the group on their courage to do this cult classical musical, well known as a crazy splashy evening of theatre chaos, and for giving their production all the wildness it demands, yet keeping their show well within the “controlled chaos” which a faithful Rocky fan would expect. But I suggested they would need to choose their next production carefully (in order to show their range and versatility), with a challenge beyond Rocky’s chaos, which I had described as a show with a “delightfully wacky, glorified tackiness and a stage full of zany, weirdo characters”! Well, they found it! The House of Blue Leaves has all of that. It is indeed wacky and tacky and filled with off beat characters. But it also has much more underneath. It’s really the perfect follow-up show, and still within the range of the sort of fare Suspects plans to serve up; e.g. interesting different shows, things not often produced in our area, “outside the box” stuff. Blue Leaves fits the bill perfectly. It is at once a dark comedy and chaotic farce, mixed with cruel satire and compassionate pathos. It “sets the bar for comic lunacy”! That’s the challenge which the (usual) Suspects took on. Go find out for yourself how successful they were. Alert: Blue Leaves shows again this weekend, and Rockford audiences absolutely should not miss this chance to see it. It is indeed filled with bizarre characters: Artie Shaughnessy is a zoo keeper, with dreams of becoming a famous Hollywood motion picture songwriter; his girlfriend, Bunny, in the apartment downstairs, refuses to cook for him until they’re married; his wife, Bananas, is mentally somewhere between schizoid and canine; his son Ronnie is AWOL from the army and sanity; and then throw in three house-breaking nuns, a Hollywood Director and his maimed Starlet and a few others, and set it all in the ‘60s when the Pope’s visit will go right down their street in Queens, New York, and believe me, things can get chaotic. The ever-talented Chris Brady is brilliant as

Arty, from his opening songs at the keyboard (beautifully timed and mimed) through every frenetic emotional storm. He allows….no, he compels….us to take the ride with him through his emotional maelstrom. Only his finale moment needs attention and extension. His downstairs ‘honey’ Bunny Flingus is also marvelous. Elizabeth Curtiss gives this broad an absolutely lovable pushy control, with a personality and voice somewhere between Barbra Streisand’s Fanny Brice and a baritone Fran Drescher. She’s perfect. Christine Edlen-Korneski as Arty’s wife Bananas has all the right stuff to become this seemingly crazy person; and she does a nice job of framing the complex character. But there is so much more beneath and inside that banana peel! This is probably one of the most complex characters this playwright, John Guare, every created, and I’m sure that audiences will love and accept Ms. Korneski’s consistent kook. But Bananas is the paste that holds everything together, and her underlying sensitivity and yes….wisdom, is nowhere in evidence, evidently a directorial conceptional flaw. The rest of the cast maintains a consistent level, with some nice moments from Bridget Emerson as Corrinna Stroller and Kate Sullivan as the Little Nun, but with some other questionable casting and some unfortunate character interpretation. The set fits quite appropriately in the Nordlof ’s lower level performance space; although the third row seating creates just a bit of viewing limitation for the audience. Production Director Bob Reaven-Edlen manages to almost control the beginning-to-end chaos, but at times seems to just let the fun take on a life of its own and pandemonium-ize itself; well blocked and fairly disciplined, the evening is perfectly paced. This is an opportunity for local theatre lovers to enjoy a new experience; and we hope it is just the beginning of innovative things to come from this talented new group, the (usual) Suspects. There are three shows this weekend: Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 8 p.m. each night. The Nordlof Center is located at 118 N. Main St. For tickets visit usualsuspectspresents.com.

The Power of art to Transform By Anne E. O’Keefe Rockford Area Arts Council

ocal muralist, Mark Adamany, was hired to create a piece of artwork at a pretty unusual place, the 2015 Rockford Business Expo held at Giovanni’s in September. Ticomix, located in Loves Park, is a leader in IT and business technology consulting since 2000 and was a host vendor for the event. For now the work is on display at the Rockford Public Library on the third floor and will eventually be touring the city so that many people can see it. Ticomix commissioned this work because they wanted to do something different in their space. We love the way they think and encourage you to do the same. “We saw this as an opportunity to go beyond ourselves and do a couple of really good things for the community,” said Tim Ancona, Ticomix CEO. “First, we could promote the arts by working with one of the top local artists on something that would really inspire people. Second, we could promote a great movement, Transform Rockford, and help spread the vision of each one of us being a ‘superhero’ of transformation throughout the city.” Mark J. Adamany established Adamany Art & Design in Rockford in 1994. He has a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Rockford University and began working as a graphic designer. This

project was the perfect challenge for Adamany (adamany.com). He did some work on the piece before the Expo to ensure the work was up to his standard of excellence but was strategic in leaving enough of the work to create a ‘WOW

factor’ for event attendees. Adamany believes he did just that. In total, the piece took about threeand-a-half weeks to finish. Adamany told me where his inspiration came from. “The inspiration came from

the idea that anyone can be a superhero in building this (or any) community. I fleshed out the Superhero theme as it was from Ticomix’s marketing materials from the previous year. They want to be ‘Superheroes’ in their industry,” Adamany said. Adamany and Mike Roberts, Vice President of Marketing for Ticomix, spent many hours brainstorming ideas, however the idea of the child came immediately to Adamany’s mind. “So, knowing that I began posing my two youngest kids in various, ‘go after it’ poses, ultimately deciding on a certain pose I had my son do for some pics,” Adamany stated. Adamany’s work typically depicts visual metaphors and this piece is no exception. It is designed to make you stop, look and think. The images are truly engaging and the artist hopes you find something new each time you view it. “I certainly hope this will help fight the negative mindset that seems to be so common in our community. The mural depicts ‘ruin’, be it physical (buildings, neighborhoods, old school thinking, etc.) and the aspirations and determination of an everyday kid wanting to do something about it. The piece is laden with all kinds of symbolism. Come see for yourself. It can mean 100 different things to 100 different people. That’s the beauty of it!”

Don’t let the title distract you 10 Cloverfield Lane is a far cry from its namesake By Thomas Simpson Contributor

n the Internet age it’s difficult to keep anything a secret. Projects are announced before they’re pitched with films spoiled before shooting even begins. That’s why it was incredibly refreshing that Bad Robot managed to keep their alluringly titled 10 Cloverfield Lane under wraps until the trailer was released only two months ago. Matt Reeves’ Cloverfield was one of the first movies to use viral marketing effectively with much of the film shrouded in mystery until audiences eventually got to see it. Dan Trachtenberg’s film shares a production company and similar title with the found footage monster hit but how

much does it have on common? Judging by the trailer, not a lot. Assessing the final product, the verdict is still out. Michelle (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) is on the run from her old life when her car is run off the road. She wakes up in a prison like cellar, patched up but in restraints. Her savior is also her captor in the form of Howard (John Goodman). He informs her that the world has come under attack and that he has saved her life before warning her that she cannot leave the bunker he has built as she will face certain death as the world is under attack from an unknown assailant. Winstead is skeptical, although her new roommate Emmett (John Gallagher Jr.) believes Howard and trusts his judgement. Not all as it seems as tensions rise, and what does this have to do with a giant insectoid looking monster anyway? Trachtenberg has crafted a brilliant apocalyptic thriller that ensnares your worst fears and translates

them onto the screen. Michelle is trapped with two strangers, one who seems utterly psychotic, and she isn’t even sure if it’s for her own good. Winstead is wonderful as she juggles her emotions, never losing her fight for survival at any costs. As good as the finished product is, what’s ultimately distracting is the title. By throwing Cloverfield in there it’s difficult not to be reminded of the massive beast that ripped the head off the Statue of Liberty in 2008. That film continually played in the back of my head as I waited for a link that would lead to it all being neatly wrapped. Then you remember that J.J. Abrams gave us Lost and the deflation kicks in. The original script was a spec called The Cellar with the title changing name after Bad Robot bought it. There is nothing wrong with aligning it with Cloverfield with one particular scene designed to make you go “oooh” except the cat is already out the bag from the opening

credits. The title feels like a cynical marketing plot but there’s the possibility that Cloverfield will be developed into a brand much in the way The Twilight Zone was an anthology series. Time will tell. Ignore what you think you know and enjoy 10 Cloverfield Lane for what it is. Goodman gives a performance that will be difficult to beat this year as he assists in creating his own monster in the form of Howard. An intense and highly paranoid individual that will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout. 10 Cloverfield Lane is a love letter to Rod Sterling, and a highly entertaining one at that. The third act twist is likely to divide opinion and create much debate, but if you think about it in the bigger picture it might just make sense. Either way, go see it.

WNIJ Presents For Better or Verse When WNIJ asked for relationship-themed poems for Valentine’s Day 118 listeners responded. It made for a busy weekend for contest judge, Dr. Susan Porterfield. Porterfield, a poet and Rockford University professor, selected six winners who were featured on Morning Edition, February 8-13, 2016. Since the true spirit of Valentine’s Day lasts longer than a box of chocolates, WNIJ and The Rock River Times presented this series to help keep Cupid’s heart on your mind. • • • • • “The Daily News” is a Pantoum, meaning that it is composed of a series of quatrains with repeating lines from one stanza to the next. The effect is a bit like a chant or incantation; it gives the reader the sense that the speaker is consumed by some idea or emotion that he or she just can’t shake—like a recurring thought that pops up whether you will or not. The repetition seems almost like background, then, a refrain playing behind the everydayness, or in this case, the Daily News, that pushes the rest of the world ahead in time. In some ways, the speaker lags, though time moves on. And that’s just what we have here. The speaker has lost someone dear—and always there is the thought, “I wonder what you’d

think if you were here.” Anyone who has lost someone important to them has this habit. The thought is one that you will ponder for as long as you live and that keeps you, even if ever so minutely, in the past, despite the onslaught of time and the news of the day. The world moves on; so do you, even though you’ve lost someone you love, but the repetition that the Pantoum form allows for hints that you also don’t forget. The Pantoum allows for the speaker and the reader to take some steps forward—for sure—but then also some steps back. It and we move back and forth in time. I find also that the speaker despairs that the world seems not to have improved since the time when the two, perhaps a beloved, perhaps a parent, were together. Conditions could have gotten better—wars, global warming, even the Cubs—but they haven’t. All the hope that the speaker seems to have had when younger has become a bit faded. The world has not worked out. The same problems appear again and again, despite the ardor that the two might have felt in earlier times that they could change the world for the good. The story is the same, however. Progress, if there is any, takes one step forward and two steps back. –Dr. Susuan Porterfield

Come See Students Perform! The Daily News By Marydale Stewart

CherryVale Mall - Center Court Saturday, April 16, 11 - 1

Today it will be cloudy, with a thunderstorm or two. A war may end; leaders have agreed to meet. Global warming evidence is presented for review. A homer gets the Cubs a second winning streak. Many wars could end if leaders would agree to meet. I wonder what you’d think if you were here about the Cubs or anybody’s winning streak, about the wars, elections, or if the weather will be clear. I wonder what you’d think if you were here— but the world has changed since we were first together. There’s more war, new elections, a new variety of fear. We thought we’d be the way we were forever. But we’ll never be the way we were when we were first together; our daily news is archived now. We thought we’d be the way we were forever while the hills turn green in spring and the fates allow. Our daily news is archived now. Sea levels rise, cities drown in hurricanes. Though the hills are greening now, the fates did not allow that we should ever meet again. Sea levels rise, cities drown in hurricanes; Global warming evidence is presented for review. I dreamed that we had met on a green and windy hill again and it was cloudy with a thunderstorm or two.

Commentary

Thank you for supporting our infrastructure

From Larry Morrissey Mayor, City of Rockford

and Jim Ryan City Adminstrator, City of Rockford

e would like to thank the citizens of Rockford for once again resoundingly supporting the 1 percent Infrastructure Sales Tax Referendum last Tuesday, as part of the March 15 election primary. With almost 30,000 voters going to the ballot box, over 66 percent of Rockford voters approved another five-year extension of the sales tax which is used to rebuild and maintain infrastructure throughout our city. Every ward in the City supported the measure, and 84 out of 86 precincts supported it as well. Only four wards, representing 17 percent of the voter turnout, had support less than 60 percent. From the early 1980s until 2005, the City of Rockford had historically asked voters every year to raise the property tax levy in order to finance road construction. The problem with that approach was that year after year, we were losing ground. Not only was it raising our property tax rate every year, but it was also not enough to pay for all the infrastructure improvements we needed to maintain a vibrant and healthy city. Lastly, we were falling behind because we were selling 13-year bonds for ten-year road fixes, and getting less work done because we were paying for one-third of the bond issue in interest and issuance costs. In 2005, State law changed and gave non-home rule communities like Rockford the opportunity to ask voters to implement a 1 percent infrastructure sales tax. In 2006, the City asked voters to move towards this infrastructure financing option, but unfortunately it was defeated with 56 percent of the voters rejecting the measure. In 2007, despite many that said we should go back to the old way of paying for roads through property tax debt, we again went to the voters to move towards the 1 percent infrastructure sales tax. Thanks to a grassroots, citizen-led effort,

the referendum passed with approximately 58 percent support. Since then, the citizens have supported the last two referendums by 74 percent and 66 percent respectively, and the results of these decisions to invest in our infrastructure have been dramatic. Since 2007, when the City replaced the old way of financing infrastructure through bonds, the City has reduced over $60 million from the city property tax rate. In 2018, all prior bond issues for road improvements will be retired, resulting in the elimination of a property tax levy for debt service. Since 2007, the City has generated over $129 million in sales tax revenue to invest into improving Rockfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s infrastructure. One real benefit of this financing is that approximately 35 percent of sales revenues are paid by non-City of Rockford residents. Since 2007, over 90 miles of neighborhood streets have been resurfaced, 35 miles of arterial and collector streets, 250 alleys have been repaired, over 40 miles of new curb and gutter installation, 30 miles of sidewalk replacement/installation, over 1600 handicap ramps, and major improvements have been made to the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commercial and industrial street network, including the downtown, 7th Street, and the E. State Street retail corridor, to name just a few. Another major benefit, and perhaps most important, is that having a steady stream of revenue to deploy pay-as-you-go capital financing has enabled the City to leverage over $220 million in State, Federal, and other non-City funds to complete major corridor improvements such as South and North Main Streets, West State, and 12 bridges, including the Morgan Street and Harrison Avenue Bridges over the Rock River. We have made significant progress in every corner of our city, but we have much work to do. On behalf of the Rockford City Council, thank you to the Citizens for Rebuilding Rockford for providing grassroots support to educate voters on this important initiative, and thank you to the voters of Rockford for endorsing our efforts to rebuild Rockford, and invest in our communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future growth and prosperity.

What we can learn from Obama’s Cuba trip

By Denise Baden

TheConversation.com

s the first U.S. president visits Cuba in 88 years, many Americans hope that Barack Obama’s trip will lead to a normalisation of relations with Cuba, opening the Caribbean nation up to the American values of liberty, free trade and democracy. Cuba undoubtedly has its problems, as numerous articles attest. But my experience as a visitor and researcher there shows a different side to the story and there is much the capitalist world can learn from Cuba, too. According to the UN Development Index, Cuba is ranked as “highly developed” with a life expectancy of 79.4 years – better than that of the U.S. (79.1). It has also made notable achievements in education, infant mortality, gender and racial equality, and has low crime rates that are among the best in the world, all despite its GDP being a fraction of the US. Cuba’s health system in particular is the envy of many and the Cuban pharmaceutical sector is punching way above its weight in terms of research, value for money, and innovation into new treatments for important diseases such as the first lung cancer vaccine. So how has Cuba pulled this off? On a research trip to Cuba, colleagues and I talked to the top directors of BioCubaFarma, a new umbrella organisation that brings together different

Cubans hope desperately for an end to the trade embargo with the U.S. and for an influx of materials they need to rebuild their beautiful but crumbling buildings. The Cuban people will also be glad to have access to a wider variety of goods in their shops. But some Cubans also fear that the U.S. has changed its tactics but not its aim to see regime change in Cuba. Cuba dislikes and distrusts American foreign policy, with good reason. There have been hundreds of CIA sponsored plots on Cuban leader Fidel Castro’s life, and numerous covert attempts at subversion that still continue. Yet the Cuban people and the leadership welcome open debate and interaction with American visitors and are more confident that they will convince them of the virtues of the Cuban way than vice versa. Indeed, if efficiency is achieving more for less, then Cuba is one of the most efficient countries in the world. Cuba has been rated the only sustainable country in the world, whereas if we all consumed at the rate of the US, we would need five planets. Despite its poverty and severe restrictions on resources due to the ongoing embargo, Cuban achievements in terms of health, education, international solidarity, culture, sport, literacy and pharmaceutical innovation rank alongside those of first world countries. So maybe we should be asking not what the U.S. can teach Cuba, but what can they learn?

e was a god in that district,” a high-level Rauner guy told me about state Sen. Sam McCann’s poll numbers from before this year’s Republican primary campaign began. Benchmark polling taken months ago showed McCann, R-Plainview, had a voter approval rating of about 70 percent. McCann “really was everywhere” in the district, attending events all over the place throughout his tenure, the Rauner official admitted. Looking at those initial numbers, “you’d have to be crazy” to take McCann on, the official said. But the governor had threatened to punish any Republican who voted with AFSCME on a now infamous bill which barred a state employee strike and instead forced binding arbitration. McCann was the only Republican to vote against Rauner, so a massive game plan was devised. What followed was the most expensive Republican legislative primary race in the history of Illinois. In the past, the million dollars or so raised and spent by and on behalf of McCann would’ve dropped jaws everywhere. But McCann’s $1 million was less than a quarter of the

race’s $4.2 million grand total. Even so, McCann defeated his Rauner-backed opponent Bryce Benton by more than 5 points. Aside from the fact that beating any incumbent who starts off beloved by 7 in 10 voters is almost impossible, some folks think McCann’s opposition actually spent too much money. They claim that after the first $1 million, the rest was all white noise and may have prompted voters to start wondering just what in the heck was going on. McCann never directly rebutted the allegations from the other side’s dogged research into his mileage reimbursements or his personal financial problems and claimed but nonexistent military service, but he did have an answer for voters who wondered why their television screens were filled to the brim with anti-McCann ads: “Chicago.” “I’m being attacked because I did what was right for this district,” McCann said in what became a ubiquitous TV ad at the same time a “Chicago PAC spends $1.5 million against McCann” headline flashed across the screen. The ad started airing weeks before the total climbed to more than double that amount. Benton, McCann’s opponent, never really established himself with voters as a hometown guy.

That lack of biographical information probably bolstered McCann’s “Chicago” claim. The “Chicago” attack worked in another race, Team Rauner admits. They used it themselves to beat back state Sen. Kyle McCarter’s GOP congressional bid against U.S Rep. John Shimkus. McCarter didn’t have more than a few dollars, so most voters had no idea who he was. Shimkus’ campaign defined him as a Chicago-loving guy. Shimkus never polled above 55 percent, but he wound up with 60. Raunerite fingers are also angrily pointing at the “regulars” in the Sangamon County Republican Party who stuck with McCann to the end. McCann actually lost Sangamon by a few votes, but they say he would’ve lost by more if the party leaders had stuck with Rauner. The reasons those party folks stood with McCann are twofold: 1) He’d built up a lot of goodwill and 2) Thousands of unionized state employees in the county are reliable Republican voters. “If McCann loses, it won’t be due to a lack of volunteers on election day,” a union staffer texted me the morning of election day. “I’m not kidding when I say I’ve never seen a campaign have to adapt because of so many volunteers,” he texted a few hours later.

Those Springfield-area state workers have their own informal but vast communications network. They talk politics with coworkers, and then they bring informed opinions to their homes and their social circles. It worked two years ago when they thumped Bruce Rauner in Sangamon County, and it worked again this time when they helped carry McCann across the finish line. The question now becomes how the Republicans retool their message for November. The McCann primary had been expected to be a preview of what’s to come. Unprecedented money from Rauner, charges that an incumbent is House Speaker Michael Madigan’s “favorite” legislator and brutally unflinching opposition research. But, just like McCann, most targeted Democrats have built up enormous local goodwill over the years. Rauner and Proft’s money and effort won numerous primary races around Illinois this year where the opponents were little-known and relatively lightly funded. Those often hapless opponents could be defined almost at will. But, like with McCann, Rauner’s top targeted House Democratic incumbents won’t be so easy to redefine.

Your Horoscope By Denise Guzzardo Week of March 23-29, 2016

This Week: The lunar eclipse arrives March 23 in Libra with an emphasis on relationships. Take advantage of this time frame to build, restore, or create solid connections with friends and loved ones. The solar eclipse at the beginning of the month put a strain on personal ties, creating discomfort or anxiety. Although it may start out a little bumpy, we will witness stability as the week progresses. Enjoy! Aries (March 21 to April 19) — Avoid those frustrating outside influences and concentrate on the tasks at hand this week. The month of April provides you with upgrades within your career sector, so prepare yourself now for a busy month ahead. Romance is highlighted in April as well. Put your best foot forward, Aries. Taurus (April 20 to May 20) — A romantic partner or valued friend can offer some sage advice regarding your personal contacts at this time. Be open and allow those around you to offer their insight, then take a time out to digest all of the information you have received. A solution to a long-standing problem will arrive shortly, Taurus. Gemini (May 21 to June 20) — An impromptu gathering will provide you with new connections for friendships, love and business. Make sure you are getting out there and accept invitations to socialize this week. Be cautious of the hip or back area during this time. You cannot afford to be laid up with this hectic schedule you’re dealing with now, Gemini. Cancer (June 21 to July 22) — Good news regarding home and property arrives at this time. You are able to get those nagging projects out of the way and expand upon your current situation. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. You will find the bargain of a lifetime or sell something that you no longer have any use for. Set some money aside for a rainy day, Cancer. Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22) — Changes within your current home environment will create some powerful shifts within your personal life. Donate items that no longer serve you and create sacred space within your living quarters. This would be a good time to hash out a long-standing problem with a friend or family member. However, if you approach this subject defensively nothing will get accomplished, Leo. Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) — There

just hasn’t been any personal time to catch up on those annoying tasks. Try not to beat yourself up over this dilemma, move through it instead. Mid-April your energy levels will begin to rise and you will be able to complete these projects one by one. In addition, you will find the time to socialize a bit as well. A night out on the town will provide some much needed humor, Virgo. Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) — Your schedule will be slammed with travel and long-distance communication during the month of April. These contacts provide valuable connections for future success. Avoid getting involved with a family matter that does not directly concern you. Let them figure it out on their own, Libra. Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) — You will stumble across some valuable information regarding a family member during this time. It would be best to keep this to yourself and continue to observe the situation at a healthy distance. The rest of the story will unfold as time wears on. At that point, you can decide what action to take. Midweek provides you with an unexpected financial windfall, Scorpio. Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) — If you have not made a shift with your work environment expect opportunities to arrive during the next lunar cycle. The stagnation with career you have been experiencing will break loose

shortly, allowing you to find the right fit. The universe will not steer you wrong, Sag. Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) — Powerful f inancial activity puts you in the driver’s seat this lunar c ycle. Now would be a great time to look at your long-term f inancial goals. You may also be in a position to make a major purchase as well. Tr y not to complicate this element with fear or stress. Your f inancial outlook is improving immensely, Capricorn. Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) — An unexpected treasure arrives from an unusual source this week. This may have some long-term benefits as well as sentimental value for you or for someone close to you. You are full of surprises at this time and everyone is elated with your energy levels. Travel is highlighted, Aquarius. Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20) — Throw out the book and go with your gut at this time. Not everything goes as expected and you need to be in a place where you can improvise quickly. Your sharp wit can get you through some frustrating obstacles. You have the ability to help another see things clearly, if you listen instead of drawing conclusions without all of the facts, Pisces.

Newsletter For The Friends & Supporters of MILESTONE, Inc.

THERE IS A NEED FOR NEW PHYSICAL THERAPY EQUIPMENT

ILESTONE’s mission is to help each Individual reach their fullest potential and live as full a life as possible. Our Interdisciplinary team includes both physical and occupational therapists and a PT/OT program is designed for each Individual to meet their needs. Many times rehabilitation therapy is needed after an extended hospital stay, and can keep a person ambulatory. Chris’ family gained first hand knowledge about the difference a strong PT/OT department can make after she returned to MILESTONE after an extended hospital stay. Before she had to go to the hospital Chris was able to walk, but after a month of being mostly bedridden she returned to Milestone non-ambulatory. With guidance, work, time and care from the PT/OT team, she was able to regain the ability to walk with the same level of assistance as before she entered the hospital. Jill Morgan, MILESTONE’s PT/OT coordinator, says, keeping our individuals ambulatory and mobile for as long as possible is entirely essential to their overall health. Weight bearing stimulates bone strength, range of motion exercises, active or passive promotes circulation, stimulates the bowels and keeps their joints fluid and the 1 on 1 attention gives them comfort and stability. Without PT and OT our individuals health would deteriorate at a more rapid rate, according to Morgan, who adds, osteoporosis, constipation and contracture of muscles and fusion of bones would occur more rapidly and more quickly interfere with our ability to care for them. Their quality of life would seriously decline. Providing and supporting what limited mobility many of our individuals have is truly as vital and valuable as any treatment or medication. But in order to do this equipment is needed, everything from walkers, to air pressure and orthotic splints, custom molded shoes, versiform cushions and walking belts. There is currently a need for standers, along with gravity, the standers help stimulate bone growth and helps maintain bone strength. The straightening and stretching of the leg mucsles and tendons also help an Individual maintain lower extremity mobility allowing for better personal care and aiding in the potential for ambulation. The change in perspective (going from sitting to standing) stimulates brain activity, and visual motor and proprioceptual skills. Our current standers are over 20 years old and we need additional ones. Please call the Resource Development Department at (815) 639-2965 if you would like information about making a donation for this program.

Helping Inflammation By Detoxing the Liver By Julia Michniewicz, N.D.

Generic Price for 20mg x 40

A very good friend of mine called me to let me know she was sending her sister’s blood work to me. Her sister has not doing well for years due to inflammatory issues and her medical doctor put her on an inflammatory prescription. The prescription that her sister was on should have been short term but now three years later she is having major health issues. Everything she eats causes her to bloat and look nine month pregnant, acid reflux, pain in her right quadrant underneath her rib cage, white stools and major stomach problems. This is a liver challenge and when people come to me I educate them on cleansing their liver through detoxes, stop eating certain foods and suggest eating other foods and colon hydro-therapy to cleanse their hepatic flexure. Our liver filters everything we eat, we drink, we put on our skin, we breathe and even what we THINK. If you have ever come to me, you know that I believe in cleanses and the liver MUST be cleansed. It is not just popping a supplement, it is eating foods that are great for the liver and helping the liver detox along with colon hydro-therapy to help clean and detoxify the hepatic flexure. The liver’s job is to filter fats and proteins. This is GOOD HEALTHY FATS AND GOOD HEALTHY PROTEINS. Along with eating good fats and proteins you need to eat enzyme rich foods like broccoli and kale to boost the liver’s natural detox ability. To ease

inflammation, you need to stop eating foods that turn into sugar, processed foods and ultra-processed foods. Do you know that out of every five calories brought into our bodies three of those calories are ultra-processed foods? So if you are eating the typical S.A.D. who is taking in a 500 calorie meal 300 of these calories are ultra-processed foods. No wonder everyone is dying of malnutrition, has diabetes and has blood pressure problems. To help flush out the toxins, a diet that is high in natural fibers from vegetables will speed the liver’s job by helping remove harmful free radicals and toxins. Fiber is great for helping you with hunger if you are on a diet to lose weight. By eating the healthy fats not only are you eating the foods that are great for the brain but you are giving your cells and hormones the foods that they need. When you eat healthy fats you are not hungry and this revs up your own fat burning metabolism. Fats are so important to hormonal health and this is what I call happy mood health. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, pre-diabetes: this is a stroke or heart attack waiting to happen and look around you–this is 50 percent of the population. If you do not change your lifestyle ask yourself where will you be in three months, six months or a year.

Aronia: the alternative berry By Grant McCarty Local Foods and Small Farms Educator, University of Illinois Extension

Like some of the alternative berries mentioned last week, Aronia berry is uniquely different from the traditional berry plants but increasingly becoming popular among consumers and growers. From a consumer standpoint, the berry is seen as a healthy fruit with antioxidants content that is substantially more than cranberries and blueberries along with large amounts of vitamin C. You may have seen Aronia at the grocery store in juices and dried like cranberries. Because of consumer interest, the berry is showing up in many different foods. Jams, jellies, baked goods, and even wine can be made using Aronia berries. Due to the increasing demand from consumers, growers in the Midwest are beginning to grow this plant much more even though it’s been commercially grown for the last 20 years. Before you plant Aronia, you should taste it. The fruit is very tart and astringent compared to other berry plants you might plant. It’s been said that some birds do not eat Aronia due to the tartness. Also known as Chokeberry, Aronia comes as both black and red chokeberry. The black chokeberry plant will have white flowers with black fruit while the red chokeberry plant will

have white flowers leading into red fruit. The berry looks like a medium sized blueberry but darker color. Berries will ripen in the fall. Another good feature about the Aronia plant is it will have bright, orange foliage in the fall. Aronia plants are an upright shrub that can grow from six-to-eight feet high and needs proper spacing of seven-to-eight feet between plants with 14-15 feet between rows. The plant tolerates a wide range of soil conditions and needs little soil nitrogen. It is drought resistant and there are no known plant diseases. Aronia may be an appropriate choice for an area of your backyard that you’ve struggled to keep plants alive. Recommended varieties of Aronia/Chokeberry are ‘Autumn Magic’, ‘Viking’, and ‘Nero’. The ‘Autumn Magic’ variety will only reach three-to-four feet tall while ‘Viking’ and ‘Nero’ will reach six-to-eight feet. Aronia is self-pollinating and you will not need another plant for proper pollination. Aronia can be a suitable alternative berry to plant in your backyard or operation. With its ability to make due with poor soil conditions and lack of plant diseases, it can seem like a great plant. Of course, taste the berry before buying the plants to determine if you like the flavor. Find Grant McCarty’s tips and tricks for your athome garden every week in The Rock River Times.

Surely the Dearly Departed Sisters wish us all a happy Egg Day because they always made it a wonderful family day, complete with great eats. Long ago on the day before every Easter, I remember Ma, Aunt Millie and Grandma Loveland boiling eggs for us to color and having a few set to the side for Deviled Eggs for the grown ups. Aunt Millie used to bring those for the Christmas feast sometimes, too. Mostly what I remember about Easter Eggs was choosing the colors, dying them at our kitchen table, having funny colored fingers for a few days, and Easter morning hunting for the candy and egg-filled Easter Baskets hidden around our old Victorian house. A big bunny, not named “Harvey,” did that. Ma always had a wonderful sparkling in her eyes during that time and at Christmas, too. I also weirdly remember the steely eyes of Grandma Loveland as we used to go through the piles of junked grave decorations in the back lot of Greenwood Cemetery. In cold of the back lot by the decaying mausoleum which has since been torn down, she’d send me climbing for her treasures on those semi-frozen mountains. The first spooky recycler/reuser I’ve known, Grandma thought nothing of us digging though the thawing mishmash of discarded displays every spring, bringing home ribbons of many colors, green wire and broken white styrofoam crosses and wreath circles. She’d roughly carve the styrofoam into eggs with a big kitchen knife and do a final shaping with a big file. She’d then decorate them with artfully trimmed grave ribbons, plus pinned gleaming sequins, beads, and foil strips to complete and satiate her rainbow egg creativity. These eggs would be placed in the Easter Baskets she hid for us around her house, or put on display on wire fashioned stands. Get jealous you Russians, they were her own Fabergé eggs, which would then gather dust all year. Grandma brought her family through the Depression by

taking in laundry and having her six children sell her homemade pies door to door. I think some of the Easter baskets were from that time. As these memories cracked open, my mind wondered off to how Deviled Eggs got their name, so I searched the web. Take a look at this entry history.com/news/hungry-history/the-ancient-history-of-deviled-eggs. Besides giving some other excellent recipes, this website of the great History Channel tells of “deviling” origins: “By 1800, deviling became a verb to describe the process of making food spicy. But in some parts of the world, the popular egg hors d’oeuvres are referred to as ‘mimosa eggs,’ ‘stuffed eggs,’ ‘dressed eggs’ or ‘salad eggs’—especially when served at church functions—in order to avoid an association with Satan.” The History Channel article also reports the making spiced eggs really began in those ancient Roman times. So now as we celebrate JC finally getting away from the physical, political and personal abuse of the bloody Romans, the traitorous Pharisees and the betraying Judas, we can boil our children’s Easter eggs with a little more knowledge for the joy of a new day. Finally, my mind did a little more new wondering when I thought about an ingredient in this week’s recipe. I hope it’s not too cheesy to point this out now, but Rockford and Chicago were once part of Wisconsin when the border between the two states was drawn from the tip of Lake Michigan to the Mississippi. In 1818, Nathaniel Pope, the representative of the Illinois Territory that even included some of eastern Minnesota, prompted moving the Wisconsin-Illinois border to its current delineation. Should we be grateful about this or not? Anyway, considering all these new fun facts to know and tell, try being grateful when adding the Parmesan cheese to this recipe, avoid the devil and have fun resurrecting Cecile and Millie’s recipe. Happy Easter!

State

DHS could offer help to Rosecrance: Stadelman By Greg Bishop

Illinois News Network

Help could be on the way for a facility a state senator says is on the verge of closing, according to the Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS). Democratic state Sen. Steve Stadelman expressed concern about the status of Rosecrance, a Rockford substance abuse rehab center. “I’m told that the Rosecrance board will meet next week to vote on possible closure,” Stadelman said. Stadelman said Rosecrance helps to keep jail populations lower, reduces the number of police calls for people with mental health issues and affects other community issues. Dimas said services like those Rosecrance provides are vital on a local level. “The only way that we are going to be able to draw down on investment in deep-end care like our state’s psychiatric hospitals is to have more community-based crisis intervention services,” said Dimas. He added that plans to talk with the Rosecrance

board this week about ways to assist the entity until there’s a budget resolution.

DHS owes 820 agencies $168 million

Meanwhile, more than 820 agencies and providers are waiting on a total of $168 million in payments from the state’s DHS. When proposing a budget of more than $4 billion for the coming fiscal year, acting DHS Secretary James Dimas told a Senate committee that the department has more than 1,000 community service agreement contractswith826agenciesandproviders.Democratic state Sen. Daniel Biss questioned the fairness of the agreements: “Those providers are being screwed over and many of them are in terrible trouble.” Dimas said the agreements include an upfront understanding vendors won’t get paid until a budget for the current fiscal year is passed. “That’s not a situation that we can resolve and I think you know that,” Dimas said, “and I think you know who can resolve that.”

Dimas said he hopes lawmakers will help him keep his promise to make the agencies whole by passing a budget for the current fiscal year.

White’s office hopes for no more facility closures

Don’t expect any more drivers service facility closures beyond one reported this month, says the Illinois Secretary of State’s office. HenryHaupt,deputypresssecretaryforSecretaryof State Jesse White, says the office used some of a recent $10millionappropriationtopaylandlordsforrentfrom JulytoDecember,someutilitiesforthevariousfacilities, and vendors who maintain the office’s cyber security. “That’s a high priority of ours to ensure that the data that we maintain is protected,” Haupt said. Haupt also says of the $10 million appropriation, the office has set aside $4 million for critical needs like continued payments on leases, utilities and unexpected emergencies. “All of these things we do with an eye on our facilities and our ability to keep them open,” Haupt said.

But despite the office having a top priority of keeping drivers facilities open, Haupt says one landlord in Wheaton did decide to discontinue a lease. That facility is closing March 24. Though there’s still no full budget for the current fiscal year, the Secretary of State’s office continues to spend, albeit sparingly. Outside of the highly publicized suspension of mailing out license plate renewal notices, Haupt says the office is taking other belt-tightening steps to save money during the impasse. “A lot of other areas that the public may not see, anything that would require overtime we pretty much have scrapped that,” Haupt said. “We have greatly limited travel.” Meanwhile Haupt says the security company Garda resumed services last month to pick up and deliver cash from drivers services facilities after having ended a previous agreement earlier this year because of lack of payment.

Smaller corn size means more energy for pigs, lower costs By Leanne Lucas U of I News Bureau

URBANA – The results of new research at the University of Illinois indicate that it is possible for producers to reduce feed costs if yellow dent corn, a staple of swine diets in the United States, is ground to a finer particle size. The smaller particle size allows pigs to derive more energy from the corn, which means producers can reduce the amount of fat added to diets (reducing their costs) without affecting the growth performance or carcass characteristics of pigs Hans H. Stein, professor of animal sciences at the U of I, and his lab conducted an experiment to determine if growth performance and carcass characteristics differed among pigs fed diets that had the same amount of energy, but contained corn that was ground to different particle sizes. Current industry recommendations call for corn fed to pigs to be ground to a particle size of around 650 microns. “When corn is ground to smaller particle sizes, pigs can derive more energy from it because the increase in surface area means that digestive enzymes have more access to the nutrients in corn, which results in increased digestibility of starch,” said Stein. “Therefore, you can reduce the amount of fat added to the diets without a loss of metabolizable energy if you use more finely ground corn. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that added fat can be removed from diets containing finely ground corn without impacting growth performance and carcass characteristics of the pigs.”

The researchers fed growing-finishing pigs diets containing corn ground to 865, 677, 485, and 339 microns. Diets were formulated to contain the same amount of metabolizable energy by varying the amount of added fat. The diets using the most coarsely ground corn contained 3.60 to 3.87 percent fat, whereas the diets using the most finely ground corn contained 2 percent fat. The carcass characteristics of pigs fed diets containing corn ground to the different particle sizes were verysimilar.Backfatdepth,hotcarcassweight,loineye area, pH of loin eye area, and fat-free lean percentage were not affected by particle size. However, dressing percentage increased, and empty intestinal weight decreased, as particle size decreased. Growth performance was also not affected by corn particle size. The pigs’ final body weight, overall average daily feed intake, and overall average daily gain were not different among treatments. For gilts, the gain:feed ratio decreased as particle size decreased, but this was attributable to the reduced intestinal weight. When calculated on the basis of hot carcass weight, gain:feed did not differ among treatments. Stein said that these results indicate that it is possible for producers to reduce feed costs if corn is ground to a finer particle size. “By using corn ground to a smaller particle size, producers can decrease the amount of fat added to growing-finishing diets without affecting growth performance or carcass composition. However, the increased dressing percentage may result in an increase in the amount of saleable meat from the pigs fed diets

containing corn ground to a smaller particle size.” Although feeding corn ground to smaller particle sizes has been observed to lead to ulcers in some studies, there was no incidence of ulcers in the esophageal region of the stomach in pigs in the current study regardless of particle size. However, an increase in keratinization was observed as particle size decreased, which Stein cautioned might lead to ulcers if pigs are stressed.

The paper, “Effects of particle size of yellow dent corn on physical characteristics of diets and growth performance and carcass characteristics of growing–finishing pigs,” was co-authored by Oscar Rojas and Yanhong Liu of the U of I, and is published in a recent edition of the Journal of Animal Science.

SOCCER

From Back Cover

youth-levels of the sport have a long way to go if it’s to reach the core of the issues. Although limited or banning headers is a good step, such a regulation doesn’t do enough to combat the chaotic nature of American youth soccer. Elbows to the head, collisions resulting from poor technical ability and parents and coaches shouting “Boot it!” from the sidelines in a foam-at-the-mouth frenzy during the run of play need to be addressed, too. Ultimately, coaches play a pivotal role in the enforcement and the integration of progressive new methods that educate both players and parents alike. Rene Muelensteen, former technical and first-team coach at Manchester United, addressed

the issue of influential behavior while he was in charge of the club’s youth development initiative and academy. In his own words, Muelensteen once said, “Footballers cannot learn how to make their own decisions if they are used to receiving instruction from the touchline.”

Local impact

Closer to home, Hugh Ward, Director of Coaching for the Rockford Raptors soccer club, was more than willing to proffer his initial views on the mandate and its associated guidelines from a coaching perspective. “I think with more awareness of the signs of a concussion that this was inevitable,” he told The Times. “We need to always ensure the safety of our younger athletes.”

Further areas of exploration have arisen from the mandate that extend deep into the developmental aspects and practices of soccer clubs like the Raptors. Beyond the surface, for some coaches and clubs, the guidelines could be seen as a mechanism to change the way the game is taught and ultimately played on game-day. In this aspect, the game benefits as players can learn to play a more controlled, keep-it-onthe-deck version of soccer. However, according to Ward, this was already taking place at his club well in advance of the November announcement. “We have been pushing more possession based training sessions over that past few years anyway, so this has not changed for our club.” Perhaps the area with the most concern lies in the enforcement of such a policy that is, pardon the pun, a game-changer. Trust and responsibility now lies on the coaches and players within these clubs to uphold the standard instead of merely ticking the boxes to what could have been dangerously seen as a “suggestion” to eliminate headers at the youth level. “We always follow the rules of our State Association, Illinois Youth Soccer Association that is governed by US Youth Soccer,” Ward said. “It is important that the guidelines are respected.” Nearly five months on, it’s a fair ask to determine whether or not there has been a decline in concussions and head injuries within club competitions. According to Ward, the frequency of head injuries hasn’t necessarily decreased, but that is just as much a matter of informing all parties as it is about the enacting proper safety protocols. “I think over that past few years we have seen more instances of concussion. I do think, however, that this is mainly due to more education on the issue with both coaches and parents.” The landscape of American youth sports,

especially soccer, is tricky to navigate as clubs must continue to uphold the safety protocols and place a higher precedence on safety over winning at all costs. Many of the issues of the past were cloaked in a culture of ignorance and an over-exuberant social movement demanding youth players to “play hurt” and “toughen up”. At Rockford Raptors, empowering coaches and front-loading them with education and information is mandatory. “As coaches we are required to pass the HEADS UP Concussion Test annually so that we are aware of the symptoms players can show when a head injury occurs,” Ward said. “The Raptors organization is more focused on the development of the player rather than a ‘win at all cost’ [mentality].” Time will tell whether the USSF’s heading protocols impact the youth game for the better. To its credit, the Federation has acknowledged the issue but the USSF can’t continue to do so in such a piecemeal fashion. Want to eliminate headers? Encourage more coaching education centered on possession soccer and evolve from a culture of kick-and-run chaos ball. Both clubs and the Federation have a responsibility to be more a presence not only in the boardrooms, but on the sidelines to ensure the safety of young players comes first. Whether that comes in the form of regular club audits by the USSF on instruction and safety measures or making clubs reported all concussion-related injuries in an annual report to the Federation through a third-party service, on thing is clear – player safety has to be top of mind, not over everyone’s head.

Tales from the Trough

Rockford drops to 3rd in division By Todd Reicher Contributor

February and March have not been kind to Rockford, as the IceHogs have dropped to third place in the competitive Central Division. Rockford is slightly behind Milwaukee, holding one game inhand, and a few points behind Grand Rapids. The Lake Erie Monsters are also hot on Rockford’s tail, only four points behind. Rockford’s first game of the week was a lethargic 4-1 loss against the Chicago Wolves. Rockford was able to muster a large number of shots against Jordan Binnington, but most of those shots came from the perimeter as the Wolves clogged up the middle, giving Rockford bad angles in which to shoot. The Wolves struck early with Evan Trupp earning his fifth of the season at 2:40 into the game. Chicago would score again 10 minutes later to cap the scoring for the first period. Despite being double in shot count, 15-7, the Wolves held a 2-0 lead. Neither team managed to score in the second, with Rockford once again doubling up Chicago 12-6 in shots, and an early third period goal put the Wolves up 3-0. With 3:05 remaining in the contest, Ville Pokka finally cracked Binnington to close Rockford to a 3-1 margin. But Trupp tallied an empty net goal with 1:15 left in regulation to close out the ‘Hogs hopes of a comeback. With Michael Leighton being recalled to the Chicago Blackhawks due to the injury to Corey Crawford, Drew MacIntyre is assuming starting goaltender duties and was handed the

loss for Rockford. The following night both teams headed back to Rockfordforthesecondgameofthehome-and-home series where the same two netminders met again. Once again, the Wolves scored first, although the first goal wasn’t until 10:59 of the second period. Vinnie Hinostroza knotted the score at 1-1 with 1:28 left in the period when a redirected puck found its’ way behind Binnington. Jordan Schmaltz broke the 1-1 tie 25 seconds into the final frame with a goal that slipped beneath MacIntyre to give Chicago a 2-1 lead. Mark McNeill answered 2:30 later with his team-leading 21st goal of the season to even the score once again. But the back-and-forth play continued with Chicago answering the call again 3:30 after the McNeill goal to reclaim the lead. With time winding down and MacIntyre on the bench, Bryan Bickell played the hero, sliding a puck beneath Binnington with 8.9 remaining in regulation, sending the game to overtime. The extra session only lasted 42 seconds when Danny Kristo fired a shot past a screened MacIntyre to give the Wolves the 4-3 overtime win. Rockford played their third game in three days on Sunday with a matinee game against the Charlotte Checkers in Rockford’s annual Jersey Auction night, with the theme for this year being Star Wars. There was not much scoring in the game, but there was plenty of action on both sides of the ice. Each goaltender, Mac Carruth for Rockford and John Muse for Charlotte, each made outstanding

saves throughout the game to keep their respective teams in the contest. In the end, this game would turn out to be a goaltenders duel. After a scoreless first period which saw each team accumulate 11 shots, Bickell would tally the game’s first goal 2:25 into the second period, assisted by Jake Dowell and McNeill. With 52 seconds remaining the in the second, Carruth let out a juicy rebound into the slot where Derek Ryan slapped it into the back of the net, tying the score at 1-1 after 40 minutes. Neither team managed to score in the third period, nor the overtime session, as each backstop played almost flawlessly through the first 65 minutes. Muse stopped 32 of the 33 shots he faced and Carruth fended off 33 of the 34 fired his way. The shootout would test the mettle of the goalies as the contest would go a staggering 13 rounds. Labrie and Viktor Svedberg would score in the third and fourth rounds, as did Charlotte, but the next eight shooters for each team would be denied. The 13th Rockford shooter, newcomer Matt Fraser, managed to beat Muse with a backhander, putting the game on the shoulders of Carruth and Patrick Brown. From the seat of his pants, Carruth made one final glove save to seal the win for Rockford, 2-1 in the shootout. With only 12 games remaining in the regular season, Rockford heads down to Lake Erie for a two game series which will decide who sits in third and fourth place in the Division. With the Monsters only four points behind, a sweep of the IceHogs would send Rockford down to fourth if

the IceHogs fail to earn a point. Of the 12 games remaining, Rockford will only play four at home; an April 1 game against San Antonio, followed by a Sunday game against the Iowa Wild, and the last two games of the season when Rockford hosts Grand Rapids and Milwaukee.

IceHogs’ Ross charged under ‘Revenge Porn’ law

Garret Ross, a 23-year-old Blackhawks prospect currently with the IceHogs, has been charged with “non-consensual dissemination of private sexual images,” a Class 4 felony. According to the charges filed in DeKalb County, Ross shared images of a woman “engaged in a sexual act, which was obtained under circumstances which Ross should have known the image was to remain private.” Commonly referred to as the “Revenge Porn” law, the state’s statute went into effect July of 2015. The incident involving Ross took place in August 2015. The charges carry a penalty up to three years in jail. A second teammate named in the complaint has not been charged at this time. Sycamore Police said that there was not enough information to charge the unnamed player. “Garret’s been excused from practice for a few days and we’ll take it from there” said IceHogs head coach Ted Dent. “It’s a day-to-day thing and we’ll go from there.” Ross was a scratch for the weekend’s games in what was called a “coach’s decision.” –Additional reporting, Shane Nicholson

Analytics still trending right for Blackhawks By Adam Hess Contributor

ver the past few weeks there’s been plenty of discussion on a lot of the Blackhawks underlying statistics not quite being up to snuff compared what we’ve typically seen from them in Cup winning seasons. I wrote last week about the struggling penalty kill and how the rate at which that unit has been failing is a bit alarming, but there’s still no reason to doubt this team yet. As further evidence of this not being ledge-jumping time, the Blackhawks possession numbers, which have been discouraging since early February, are starting to work their way back to where we’d like to see them. Despite going 1-3-1 in their last five games, the Blackhawks have controlled a majority of the shot attempts at 5v5, with their worst effort in the bunch coming last Monday against the Kings when they posted a 52.44 percent CF at evens. The numbers remain strong even when adjusted

for score – which means that each situation is weighted a certain way to adjust the statistics to what they would look like if the score was tied. The only game in the last five where their possession share dropped below 50 percent when adjusted for score was that game against the Kings. Another major concern for the Blackhawks had been the number of scoring chances they were surrendering at even strength compared to the ones they were generating. Particularly of

concern were the high danger chances, or chances within close range of the net. However those numbers have remained strong as well for the Hawks, as they’ve been able to control a majority of scoring chances and high danger chances a few times in their last five. The conclusion here is simple: while not everything is going right, some things are starting to. Again, there are reasons to be concerned about the Blackhawks, and being concerned can

be a good thing. But these statistics are trending in the right direction for the Blackhawks. And with nine games left on the schedule, there’s still plenty of time for them to address their remaining weaknesses while they polish off their strengths as well.

Top of mind: Progress in youth soccer

By Jon Townsend Contributor

hink of the world of youth soccer in terms of science versus engineering. Science explores, identifies, and exposes anomalies while engineering strives to solve those anomalies efficiently and expeditiously. Note the difference: one exposes a problem; the other attempts to solve it.

Youth soccer in the United States finds itself at an interesting crossroads – on teetering the line between player safety and winning soccer. On the one hand, the United States Soccer Federation has embarked on an important path leading to a more careful approach with regards to head injuries. On

the other hand, rules are only as good as those who follow them. As well-intentioned as the mandate that we covered in the pages last November is, the time for revisiting this topic is at hand. While the United States Soccer Federation, the country’s governing body, issued the original guidelines that ‘recommended’ a ban on heading at the U-10 and younger level and limit heading for the U-11 to U-13 ages, the biggest issues and questions pertained to the ramifications of such an audacious rule change. Naturally, many wondered how the youth game would be affected by the mandate through the wrong lens. In parent and coaching circles, discussions always tend to oscillate from what’s best for player safety versus what’s best to produce winning soccer. For far too long, youth soccer ‘success’ is hinged on winning over development – at the expense of player safety. At its core, many believe this to be a tech-

nique-based issue, and while teaching proper heading technique is paramount, there are yet more factors that permeate the game played beyond the chalked lines on game-day. To date, no documentation has surfaced on how USSF intends to enforce, augment and even regulate the heading mandate. In other words, USSF has made a miscalculation by leaving the rule open to interpretation. What happens when people begin to see this “rule” more as a “recommendation” over time? So it seems USSF and the state associations have to act retroactively and issue “announcements”, presumably after something terrible happened or someone had the gumption to ask the pertinent questions. Illinois Youth Soccer recently issued a statement that addressed this conundrum. Again, thinking pro-actively instead of reactively is a good; however, the issues requires more attention to the factors that inevitably lead to more headers. For example,

USSF has issued guidelines stipulating more smallsided-games at the youth level with the supposed intention to encourage more possession soccer over kick-run-repeat soccer, yet nobody seems to know if this is enforced by the Federation. The reality is, if player safety is truly a priority, why not explore how head injuries statistically occur in soccer? For example, why not issue a rule that stipulates goalkeepers at the U-10 and younger ages do not punt the ball, but instead attempt to play out of the back. Perhaps instituting a ‘line of confrontation’ in each half would allow the goalkeeper to freely play the ball to a teammate before the opposition can engage and attempt to win the ball back would go a long way. Due to the myriad of unknowns that arise from studies linking concussions in soccer, it’s clear the See SOCCER on Page 45
