RAA seeks clarity over proposed rule From Paul Arena The Rockford Apartment Association

he city proposed to expand the law that requires landlords to register. The original law required properties that were rented, in whole or in part, to register. The city proposed to expand the requirement to property where you let someone occupy it. Here is the definition of what type of property needs to register from the original ordinance and this definition remains the same in the draft amendment: “Dwelling unit means any structure or part of a structure used as a home residence, providing living facilities for one or more persons, including provisions for living, sleeping, eating, cooking and sanitation, including, but not limited to apartment units, boarding houses, rooming houses, emergency shelters, mobile home spaces, public housing, subsidized housing and single and multi-family dwellings.” We interpret that to mean all residential property. Here is the definition of “let” from the draft amendment. I have bolded words for emphasis. “Let/Let for occupancy is to permit, provide or offer possession or occupancy of a dwelling unit, by a person who is not the legal owner of record thereof, pursuant to a written or unwritten lease, agreement or license, or pursuant to a recorded or unrecorded agreement of contract for the sale of land.” A dwelling unit is a structure or any part of a structure. A room in a single family home is a part of that structure. A person who is not on the title of the home, occupying a room with an unwritten agreement appears to require registration. The city may have written this overly broad and not intend to enforce it as the language permits but last year Rockford moved all ordinance enforcement from the courts, before an impartial judge, to code hearings. That means a city employee makes the accusation of a violation, a city employee determines guilt and imposes the fine, and the city collects the fine as revenue they keep. In a one sided system like that, having language that is abundantly clear is important.

No proposal big enough to stabilize state says Civic Fed By Mark Fitton Illinois News Network

SPRINGFIELD — The head of the Civic Federation — a largely Chicagoland business group — on Monday gave a panel of Illinois state senators some hard advice: Illinois has to control its spending and pay its debts, and it must do so for several years. Laurence Msall, the federation’s president, reviewed some of the group’s recommendations for a state budget for fiscal year 2016, which begins July 1. The overall message: Cut spending and raise revenue. Commit to a plan of at least five years and stick with it. Illinois is going into the coming fiscal year with an estimated $6.2 billion deficit, its pension obligations underfunded by about $110 billion, and with a stack of past due bills about $3 billion high. Msall said no single tax rate nor any single change to business law would mean as much to companies considering investment in Illinois as much as putting the brakes on annual crisis and always changing taxation. “The uncertainty, the embarrassment, of having the worst rated credit in the United States, the embarrassment of having $6 billion in unpaid bills, and the realization that comes to these business people that someone is going to have to pay for that and it’s going to be them more than anything else drives more business and economic development negatives than anything else.” And the state should learn to spend less, he said. “There is no revenue proposal, there is no tax increase big enough to stabilize the state finances even over the next five years if we don’t hold the line on discretionary spending,” Msall told members of the Senate appropriations committees. The federation supports about $2 billion in cuts identified by Gov. Bruce Rauner, but it also says more tax dollars are needed. Among its recommendations: nIncrease income tax rates, with the personal rate going from 3.75 percent to 4.25 percent and the corporate rate from 5.25 to 6 percent; nTax retirement income, excluding Social Security income, above $50,000; nEliminate the sales tax exemption for food and non-prescription drugs, at least until the state’s unpaid bill backlog of about $6 billion is eliminated. “Real sacrifices will have to be made,” Msall said. “People will have to act against their interests in order for a grand bargain to save these (state and local) governments.” He also cautioned against taking in additional revenue without cutting spending. “Those that don’t support the level of cuts the governor has indicated, they need to come to

the table with revenue,” he said. “They need to be honest with the citizens, with everyone, that they’re not helping the people they are attempting to protect if they don’t provide revenue.” Aside from increasing revenue, limiting the number of governmental units should be a top priority for the state. Msall says Illinois government should implement a plan to reduce the number of governments in the state. “When you talk about being an outlier, with 6,998 units of government, there’s not state that’s even second or third place.” Msall said the proposed budget that reduces the money shared with local governments is another reason the nearly 7,000 units of government should be consolidated as much as possible, even if it’s not politically expedient. Msall said that the embarrassment of Illinois being at the bottom of nearly every economic indicator causes businesses and individuals to reevaluate relocating to the Land of Lincoln.

House, Senate ease prosecutorial access to birth certificates

A change to allow prosecutors easier access to birth certificates found some vocal opposition in the Illinois House Monday. Senate Bill 1688 passed the House but not without several lawmakers saying it’s an unnecessary increase in prosecutorial power. The measure allows for a written request for a birth certificate by a State’s Attorney to be granted. Republican Representative Ron Sandack says the change would only be allowed in accordance with criminal prosecution. “This gives a State’s Attorney the ability to obtain a public document through a written request without the issuance of subpoena. This is not going to impinge upon anyone’s rights. This isn’t going to unduly burden anyone.” Supporters of the measure say the easier access to a birth certificate would have helped in one case where a prosecutor was trying to prove a child victim’s age without having them testify. Democratic Representative Scott Drury, a former prosecutor, said one instance isn’t enough justification to make up for prosecutors properly going through the normal channels. “This is a big change in policy to give the State’s Attorneys more power than they have because they don’t want to issue a piece of paper to somebody to get a document that they’re not entitled to without it.” Supporters said that one-in-a-million case is a perfect example of why the change is necessary. Despite objections raised by several other lawmakers on the House floor the Senate bill passed 85-14 and now heads to the Governor’s desk.

Oil wreck responses leaving more questions than answers By Robert and Sonia Vogl

President and Vice President, Illinois Renewable Energy Association

e were returning from buying a used post hole digger in northeastern Iowa when we noticed a dark black cloud suddenly billowing up just northeast of us. It was the BNSF oil train wreck on the east bank of the Mississippi River a few miles south of Galena back on March 5. The 103 oil tank car train was loaded with Bakken oil from North Dakota and headed toward an oil refinery in Pennsylvania. Twenty one tank cars derailed; seven split open and burst into flames. Ironically the cars involved had been upgraded to lessen the fire risks. Fortunately no one was hurt and none of the oil reached the Mississippi River or the adjacent nature preserve. According to the Association of American railroads annual oil shipments by rail have increased from less than 10,000 in 2008 to nearly 500,000 in 2014. Most of the increase comes from the Bakken fields in North Dakota and Montana. Lacking pipelines, 70 percent of the oil is shipped by rail to distant oil refineries. Bakken oil train derailments have often resulted in explosive fires raising safety concerns for populations living within a half mile of the tracks and the firefighters who respond to the fires. According to a Reuters news report the

Galena firefighting volunteers were hosing down the smoldering wreck when it suddenly flared up forcing them to drop their hoses and scramble for safety. A county official indicated the crew was within 10 minutes of losing their lives The Department of Transportation estimates that roughly 2,500 fire departments in the Midwest are adjacent to rail lines; officials do not know which of the departments are in need of training. In Galena with up to 50 oil trains passing through daily, firefighting volunteers had received some basic hazmat training but had not yet received the specialized training for first responders to oil derailments offered in Pueblo, Colorado, by major railroads. The oil’s volatility can be reduced by heating it to drive off the explosive butane component before it is shipped. This would increase the cost of the oil and create a problem regarding what to do with the collected butane. A second approach would require the oil trains to decrease their speed to 40 mph when travelling through heavily populated urban and surrounding suburban areas. But the Galena oil train was only traveling at 26 mph when a wheel on a car collapsed causing the derailment. According to a report in the Billings Gazette, sensors could be installed on the lead locomotives to measure rail thickness and detect deformities which would alert the engineers to

potential problems. They could be placed next to rail ties or under the tracks to detect track bed shifting or on cars to detect broken wheels such as in the Galena derailment. New federal safety regulations called for the phasing out of old tank cars along with other measures by 2020. Seven environmental organizations filed a lawsuit claiming the rules will not protect the 25 million Americans living within a half mile of the tracks. The American Petroleum Institute filed a lawsuit challenging the timetable for replacing old oil cars and installing electronically controlled pneumatic brakes. Legal challenges could alter or slow implementation of the rules. If more explosive wrecks occur involving the loss of lives and extensive property damage, stricter new rules could be implemented more quickly. Of course ignored in the on-going safety debates is the need to dramatically reduce our consumption of fossil fuels. Reach the Vogls at sonia@essex1.com.

U of I researcher develops rust-resistant soybean Kick off for

farmers market season By Grant McCarty Local Foods and Small Farms Educator, University of Illinois Extension

s someone who works with fruit and vegetable growers in the area, I’m always ready for the farmers market season to begin. It’s a great way for me to catch up with growers, find out how their winter was, what new vegetables they are growing, and be able to finally eat more seasonally. One of the great benefits we have in this area is a wealth of different growers and producers. There are those who strictly sell vegetables. There are those who raise livestock for meat and eggs. I can also find vegetable growers who are Certified Organic. Farmers markets are not strictly produce. There are locally produced breads, jams and jellies, honey, cheeses, and other fine products. By visiting a farmers market, I can potentially get all of the ingredients that I need for the week. Farmers markets also offer much more than the vendors. They may have special fests to highlight seasonal ingredients. Live music is also common at farmers markets. There may be a community

table devoted to a nonprofit. Farmers markets in the area vary based on time and day of the week. Many of them also have different starting dates for their season. When coming to a farmers market, you want to bring with you cash as all vendors will accept it. You might also consider bringing your reusable shopping bag. Times, starting date, and sometimes locations change season to season so check in with the farmers markets on their social media pages to find out more. Additionally, I always encourage consumers to try out new vendors, new markets, and new products. So what produce might you find right now? Most perennial plants are producing and you’ll easily find rhubarb and asparagus. There might also be leafy greens such as spinach, kale, and others. Some growers might also have radishes. The thing to keep in mind is that many of those summer crops like tomatoes, corn, and beans are not available yet as it’s too early. Talking with the growers can also give you an idea of what produce is coming up in the next couple of weeks. With that, enjoy the beginning of the farmers market season and I’ll see you there.

CHAMPAIGN—It took decadesofpainstaking work,butresearchgeneticistRamSinghmanagedto cross a popular soybean variety (“Dwight” Glycine max) with a related wild perennial plant that grows like a weed in Australia, producing the first fertile soybean plants that are resistant to soybean rust, soybean cyst nematode and other pathogens of soy. Singh works in the Soybean/Maize Germplasm, Pathology and Genetics Research unit in the department of crop sciences at the University of Illinois. The unit is a division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Program. His effort to introduce the desirable attributes of wild, perennial Glycine species into soybean plants began at the U. of I. in 1983 and followed a path that involved thousands of experiments, the developmentofahormonetreatmentthat“rescued” immature hybrid seeds from sterility, and multiple backcrosses of hybrid plants with their “recurrent parent,” Dwight. Singh’scollaborator,RandallNelson,theresearch leader of the ARS soybean/maize research unit, plants seeds from Singh’s most promising experiments, grows the plants and distributes their seeds to other scientists, who screen them for desirable traits and conduct their own breeding experiments. Soybean is the second-most-planted field crop in the U.S. after corn, worth more than $4 billion annually in the U.S. Current soybean varieties are susceptible to an array of pests and pathogens. Among them, the parasitic roundworm known as soybean cyst nematode attacks soybean roots and stunts their growth. Soybean rust, a fungus first detected in the U.S. in 2004, taints leaves and eventually defoliates the plants. Scientists have known for decades that some wild, perennial soybean relatives had desirable traits that many hoped to introduce into soy, Singh said. “There are 26 wild species of Glycine perennials that grow in Australia,” he said. One species, Glycine

tomentella, was of particular interest because it has genes for resistance to soybean rust and to soybean cyst nematode, he said. “Many people tried to hybridize it with soybean plants, starting back in 1979 at the University of Illinois.” But the hybrids produced only sterile plants, “and they decided it was impossible,” Singh said. He continued to experiment, however, and eventually developed a hormone treatment that interrupted the process that caused the hybrid seeds to abort. He also developed a tissue culture method for producing several embryos – and thus, several plants – from each seed. The plants were grown in a greenhouse, allowed to flower and crossed again with Dwight. Singh eventually settled on a Glycine tomentella plant known as PI 441001 for these experiments because the wild plant was immune to soybean rust and to soybean cyst nematode. It also was resistant to Phytophthora root rot and could tolerate salt and drought. As the experiments continued, Singh noted that each generation of hybrids had different numbers of chromosomes, reflecting their blend of soybean and tomentella chromosomes. The goal, said Singh, was to isolate each of tomentella’s 39 chromosomes, adding one at a time to soybean’s 20 pairs of chromosomes. That way, all the genetic richness of tomentella could be captured in the hybrid soybean plants. Further crosses have introduced the tomentella genes into those of the soybean plants, creating soybean plants with 40 chromosomes and some of the most desirable tomentella traits. So far, the effort has yielded plants that are resistant to soybean rust, soybean cyst nematode or Phytophthora root rot. Some of the new plants produce more soybeans per plant than Dwight, and some have higher protein content than Dwight. The research continues. As a result, soybean breeders now have access to dozens of new soybean lineages, each with some of the traits of the wild Australian plants.

Vibe Entertainment BB’s radio days shaped his career in music By John Covach TheConversation.com

BB King, who passed away last week at the age of 89, is remembered as one of the most important artists in the history of blues, with a long career that spanned seven decades and included classic hits such as “Three O’Clock Blues” (1951), “The Thrill is Gone” (1969) and 1989’s “When Love Comes to Town” (recorded with U2). Widely considered one of the most influential guitarists of the 20th century, he became, in his later years, a celebrated icon of blues authenticity. Had it not been for his early days in radio, however, things might have turned out differently for a young Riley King. When Riley King came to Memphis, Tennessee in the late 1940s and gained prominence as a DJ, he put himself at the center of one of the country’s most active blues scenes. Whether it was access to a large record collection or gigs fueled by his growing celebrity as a DJ, the young bluesman brilliantly exploited each opportunity that came his way.

The right place at the right time

Radio in the years after World War II was changing rapidly. The nationally syndicated networks that had driven radio in previous decades were now devoting their resources to a new technology: television. As TV increasingly drew a mass, national audience, radio homed in on appealing to local and regional listeners. This shift gave stations the freedom to innovate. One change was an uptick in the airing of rhythm & blues music, sometimes in late-night spots and sometimes – like at WDIA Memphis – all day and night. The DJs spinning R&B records were often white: John R Richbourg at WLAC in Nashville and Zenas “Daddy” Sears at Atlanta’s WGST. (One of these white DJs, Ohio’s Alan Freed,

would become pivotal in the birth of rock and roll.) In late 1948, a young BB King was an aspiring blues artist then performing under his birth name, Riley King. He made his way from Indianola, Mississippi to Memphis by working on a delivery truck to pay his fare. He’d already visited the River City once as the guest of his cousin, Bukka White. King, who had worked primarily in the cotton fields of Mississippi while singing with a gospel choir and playing blues on the street, sought out greener pastures in the music business. So for this second visit, young Riley had a plan: he would get himself on blues singer Sonny Boy Willimson’s King Biscuit Time show on KFFA – a broadcast King loved from his days picking cotton. Williamson put King on the air singing Blues at Sunrise, and got him a performing gig at the 16th Street Grill in West Memphis. To keep this new gig, King had to get the club mentioned on the radio. After his impromptu performance at KFFA, King ambitiously headed off to WDIA in Memphis, a white-owned station that employed an all-black on-air lineup, which included Nat D Williams, Maurice “Hot Rod” Hulbert and Rufus Thomas. King initially got a regular 10-minute spot promoting an elixir called Pepticon (“good for whatever ails you”), while even writing a jingle (and getting in a plug for his gig). Soon the young DJ had a more extended slot as host of Sepia Swing Club. He later said that he partly modeled his onair personality on the nationally known white radio host and performer Arthur Godfrey. A radio star was born: BB King.

Exposure, influence – and stardom

King’s regular spot on the radio gave the DJ name recognition, and his performing gigs continued to roll in. Soon,

Local musicians look back on blues legend and entourage. The dressing room was tight as I remember it, about the size of a large broom closet. “All I can say about BB King is you could tell instantly that he was a gentleman and that he loved what he did. He smiled, looked quizzically at us and asked what he could do for us. So then like a bunch of dopes, we stuttered out, ‘Can we borrow a cord? One of ours shorted out.’ “He laughed a little, smiled a big warm smile and told one of his guys to get us one of his cords. He asked if we were going to put on a good rock’n’roll show and then said he’d be listening. We played and then watched his entire show from the side of the stage. He was a truly gracious guy and a huge star. “If anyone ever wonders how cool Rockford was back then think of this: a 16 year old kid gets to open up for an internationally loved and respected blues god, BB King. Rick and Tom play and then go on to be international acclaimed rock gods in their own right. The other kid that played drums for us that day, John Darby, went on to become the current Director of NASCAR. “Not a bad group of guys to hang around. Rockford really did Rock!”

Enjoy live music, great food and drinks on the river in Downtown Rockford!

-Dave Galluzzo, former frontman of The Names

“I first met and played with BB in 1969 and we remained friends. ‘Hey Mr. Rick!’ everytime we’d see each other. “The last time I was with him was just two years ago. I brought my ‘Lucille’ and asked, almost embarrassingly, him signing for a third time his BB King autograph for me. ‘Hey Mr. Rick, OK.’” -Rick Nielsen, Cheap Trick

‘W

e opened for BB King at show at Boylan High School in 1970 or ’71. I was 16 years old and in a band called Flight at the time. The story goes like this: We had played a couple shows opening for Rick Nielsen and Tom Peterson’s band Fuse both at Sherwood Lodge and then again at the Mothers Day concert that keeps popping up on the Rockford Rocked Facebook page. Because we did well at those gigs we were invited to do the show with BB King. “I don’t remember who put that show on but it was at a transition when Fuse was breaking up and Rick was in some configuration of Fuse/Sickman of Europe. I think it may have been around the time of Stewkey and Thom Mooney from Nazz. Anyway, as I remember it, they had another gig or someone had to be somewhere so they played first and packed up and left which meant we went on right before BB King–which was seriously cool for a bunch of 16 year old Rockford kids to do. “BB King was out touring and still riding the huge mainstream success of his hit “The Thrill Is Gone.” As we were getting setup and ready to play we discovered one of our guitar cords was shorting out and this was the days of one guitar, one cord and one amp–no spare anything, at least that’s the way it was for a young band like ours. Rick and all those guys had packed up and were gone so we couldn’t get one from them, so that only left BB King. “So off we go to bang on the dressing room door and mooch a cord from one of our blues heroes and already a true living legend. They opened the door–BB was sitting in a chair in the middle of the room surrounded by a bunch of other well dressed (suits) players

Tube Talk

End of an era in late night By Paula Hendrickson Television Columnist

s I write this, it’s Monday night and Late Show with David Letterman just started. Letterman is mid monologue and despite jokes about his impending retirement (from the show, anyway), it’s hard to fathom late night TV without this lanky legend delivering his nightly Top 10 list, even if I only tuned in once or twice a week. In his 33 years hosting a talk show – first on NBC and later on CBS – Letterman has grown into a television institution. From Stupid Human Tricks to bits that made celebrities of people including Calvert DeForest (as “Larry ‘Bud’ Melman”), nearby business owners like Hello Deli’s Rupert Gee and souvenir shop owners Mujibur and Sirajul, and even his own mother, Dorothy, Letterman showcased the humor of everyday people. Many times he seemed to find average folks far more interesting than the thousands of celebrities who have been his guests over the decades. Stupid Pet Tricks and 100-plus segments with zoologist Jack Hanna revealed Letterman’s love of animals. Nearly every time a dog did a Stupid Pet Trick, the host seemed to pay more attention to the pooch than its trainer. Even semi-regular viewers probably caught on long ago that Letterman appreciates tradition and loyalty. One of my favorite Late Show traditions

has been the Christmas show. Like clockwork, you could count on two things: 1) Jay Thomas throwing a football and knocking a meatball (and sometime the pizza too) off the top of the Late Show Christmas tree after telling his infamous Lone Ranger story; and 2) Darlene Love giving another killer rendition of her holiday classic, “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home).” Thomas missed the show in 2013 due to illness, but was back for a final throw in 2014. Love always brought the house down. Letterman’s skill as an interviewer shone when he had the ear of a world leader, humanitarian or any brilliant mind who might be able to answer difficult questions about topics like global warming, terrorism and growing global food and water shortages. Those discussions gave viewers a

glimpse of the comedian’s serious side, and made it clear he’d done his homework on the topics in order to ask smart and serious questions – albeit often couched in his self-depreciating, “What do I know? I’m just a goofy talk show host” manner. A notoriously private man, Letterman has openly shared raw emotion with his audience only a handful of times. The most memorable being in 2000 when he returned following life saving quintuple bypass surgery; on his first show after 9/11; and when he admitted to misdeeds rather than cave into a blackmail attempt. All of those moments resonated with viewers because letting his guard down even a bit proved there’s a lot of depth to this normally acerbic comedian. It’s easy to take someone for granted when they’re on your screen five nights a week for decades on end. But when put in context, Letterman is the bridge between classic talk show hosts of earlier years — Johnny Carson, Jack Paar, Steve Allen — and the pop culture icons of today – Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers and even Jon Stewart. When Letterman signs off this Wednesday for the final time, it truly will be the end of an era.

Programming Note

David Letterman’s final show airs tonight at 10:35 p.m. on CBS.

‘Fury Road’ lives up to 30 years of hype By Thomas Simpson Contributor

hirty years passed between Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome and the fourth installment Mad Max: Fury Road, the latter having spent almost two decades in development hell, rarely a good sign for any movie. The more time passed the older Mel Gibson got and although there were talks of him putting the leathers on once more, he was eventually replaced by Tom Hardy. The only saving grace to sate those hungry for blood was that George Miller was back at the helm. The earth is still a scorched dystopian landscape with gas being a treasured commodity. Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) is a much feared cult leader with a devoted following of War Boys. There is dissonance in the ranks as his trusted soldier Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron) helps Joe’s wives escape their forced marriages. Finding that his trusted breeders are missing, Joe unleashes a heallacious army in pursuit of Furiosa including loyal War Boy Nux (Nicholas Hoult). Where’s Max in all this? He’s strapped to a bowsprit on Nux’s car being used as a makeshift blood bag

for the sick War Boy. And you thought Happy Feet would have made Miller soft. Mad Max: Fury Road lives up to its name and does what it says on the tin. This is a full throttle chase film with lots of terrifyingly beautiful vehicles. CGI is often a necessity in this day and age but Miller’s insistence on practical effects where possible raise the stakes. When you see a car somersaulting through the air, you can take comfort in knowing that the twisted metal is a genuine threat. The dust storm scene is a magnificent maelstrom of violence that would leave you on the edge of your seat if you weren’t already melted into it. All this in the first act. Tom Hardy picks up the mantle of the role made legendary by Mel Gibson. It’s no easy task and it’s one he is capable of and he proves that here. What has surprised fans is how little focus is put on the titular character. Yes, this is Max’s world, and this is a Mad Max film, yet the star of the show here is Theron’s Furiosa. She is the protagonist, the hero willing to risk her life to ensure Joe’s wives escape his clutches and start a new life in the green place.

Max is reluctant to help and in many ways plays second fiddle to Furiosa. Dispute the criticism from the internet forums, this doesn’t damage the film. Not in the slightest. Max is still the Roadwarrior, a man on his own path with one goal: survival. However, like the western gunslinger that he embodies he can’t stand by and watch injustice go unpunished. The chemistry between Hardy and Theron is the perfect mix with Hoult continuing to show why he deserves such versatile roles. Max is the name that’ll draw you in but there’s more depth to this film than the insanely over the top action sequences suggests. Fury Road had an impressive opening weekend (for an R rated film) but it remains to be seen if the numbers will justify a sequel. Not that we’d have to wait another thirty years–Hardy has previously mentioned that he’s signed on for a further four films with Miller stating that he has a script ready to go for the sequel. It’s fun, it’s tense, it’s a visual spectacle that will leave you satisfied. If it does nothing for you I’d check for a pulse.

KING

From Page 8

he was playing regional shows in addition to the local Memphis ones. Being on the radio also helped King understand audiences: he learned what listeners wanted and how to craft an on-stage personality. As a regular at WDIA, King had access to the station’s record library. This allowed him to become familiar with a wide range of musical styles within rhythm and blues – something that would not have been possible for almost anyone outside of the industry. Aside from being exposed to new sounds, he got to know the artists and the industry representatives who came through town to promote their records. King had bombed with his first record release as an artist, Miss Martha King, which he recorded at WDIA and released by Bullet Records. (King would joke that it was “bad enough to drive Bullet into bankruptcy.”) But when Jules Bihari and his brothers came through town promoting Modern Records at the station, they met King, who had been recommended to them by Ike Turner (King and Ike had done some gigs together). King signed with the Bihari brothers, who released his singles on RPM (a subsidiary of Modern), even recording some of these at Sun Studios with Sam Phillips. (Sun would later be home to Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison.) One record BB King often played while deejaying at WDIA was a single by Lowell Fulson, Three O’Clock Blues. According to Fulson, King played the record more than any other DJ in the country. Soon, King decided to take a stab at his own version of Fulson’s song. King’s version of “Three O’Clock Blues” went to number one in the national rhythm and blues charts in early 1952. Having a chart-topper meant that BB could hit the road, and he began a life of extensive touring that would continue for decades. Being on the road so much made it impossible for him to continue as a DJ, and his success as an artist effectively ended his career in radio. But in looking back at the musician’s long and successful career, the impact of radio on BB King’s rise can’t be understated. It opened a door for the young King, one that he was happy to walk through.

Commentary Editorial

Reject the Apathycrats, commit a thoughtcrime By Frank Schier Editor & Publisher

am amazed at the United States citizens’ full-fledged apathy towards the USA Patriot Act passed in 2001 by President George W. Bush and extended in 2011 by President Obama. This privacy destroyer is now up for further extension, which is being sold as a revision. As the latest sunset deadline of June 1st approaches, National Public Radio, particularly The Diane Rehm Show, is one of the few national media outlets to address this crucial issue in a balanced manner. A shining example of Orwellian “Newspeak,” the full title of the USA Patriot Act acronym is: “Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001”. For those who haven’t met our Animal Farm friend George Orwell, let us turn to everyone’s internet familiar, Wikipedia for this fine introduction: “Newspeak is the fictional language in the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, written by George Orwell. “It is a controlled language created by the totalitarian state as a tool to limit freedom of thought, and concepts that pose a threat to the regime such as freedom, self-expression, individuality, and peace. Any form of thought alternative to the party’s construct is classified as ‘thoughtcrime.’” A new example of “thoughtcrime” might

Protect the bottom line and think outside the deficit By John Groh Rockford Area Convention & Visitors Bureau

hen visitors come to Illinois they enjoy our cities, towns, and countryside. They fill our hotels, meeting centers, restaurants, shops, and attractions. And most importantly, they leave behind an economic impact that drives billions of dollars to the bottom line across the state and here in the Rockford region. But right now that engine is threatened, putting at risk more than $2.5 billion in annual tax revenue precisely at a time when Illinois can afford it least. Yet that is exactly what is on the horizon as the Illinois legislature and Governor Rauner consider proposals to slash funding to the tourism industry. Using only a small portion of hotel tax revenue – and not the tax revenue generated from Illinois residents – the state has reinvested the

money spent by visitors. Since the 1980s, Illinois has been among the nation’s leaders in innovative sales and marketing efforts that have drawn more visitors to the state. Like a farmer who uses seed corn to deliver bumper crops, the results have been impressive. In 2014, a record 107 million visitors came to Illinois, the fourth consecutive year for a new mark. Those people didn’t show up by accident. They were drawn here in many ways – from incentives to conventions and trade shows, to advertising and marketing in the U.S. and across the world, to partnerships with local organizations. The seed money is now threatened in the proposed state budget. More than $30 million in hotel tax could be diverted away from drawing more visitors – and their spending and tax revenue – in a misguided effort to solve other problems. Just this week we announced the first major booking for

the new downtown Rockford sports complex. In 2018, the Amateur Athletic Union will host its 6th Grade Girls Basketball National Championships here. Some 3,000 people will descend on Rockford and spend more than $750,000 while in town. More announcements are to come. However, our ability to secure these events for the community – and the tax dollars they generate – is dependent on the Illinois Legislature thinking outside the deficit and considering tourism as a solution to Illinois’ economic crisis. Illinois was ahead of its time 30 years ago when it recognized the need to reinvest a portion of visitor spending to continue feeding this economic engine. Today there are very tough choices facing Illinois regarding next year’s budget. But one easy choice that promises proven reward over risk is to continue the current funding for the visitor industry, and the billions that it will mean for the bottom line.

Letter to the Editor

Pharmacists, services suffering due to cuts As the first line of healthcare delivery, particularly in underserved urban and rural areas of Illinois, pharmacists strive every day for the advancement of patient care. Leaders in Springfield are considering a budget that would cut reimbursements for prescriptions for the fourth time in just the past four years. Pharmacies and their patients have done their fair share – we hope local lawmakers reject this proposal. If further cuts are implemented, pharmacies will have to reconsider their ability to serve Medicaid patients, cut staff and hours, or possibly even close their doors. Any of these alternatives will hurt patients whether Medicaid eligible or not, but most especially our community’s seniors and low-income children. These decisions will not be easy but pharmacies cannot provide services for less than it costs them to deliver those same services. Pharmacists offer services that are critical to everyone’s healthcare: prescription medications, counseling, preventive vaccines and health screenings. Further cuts to the Medicaid pharmacy program will be detrimental to community-based pharmacies, pharmacists, and most importantly, the patients they serve. It’s time to stop treating pharmacies and their patients like second-class citizens. Rob Karr and Garth Reynolds Illinois Pharmacists Assocation

I am not wowed by Android v5 By Paul Gorski Columnist

ndroid v5 (5.0.1, 5.0.2 or 5.1 depending on your device) is Google’s most recent update to its popular smartphone and tablet operating system. I have tested with the various v5 subversions and I am not “wowed.” Google assigned the name “Lollipop” to this version–I do not find this version sweet at all. Unlike iOS 8, Android users cannot simply download the v5 update. Unless you buy a new phone with Lollipop pre-installed, your provider needs to tweak the Android OS and support it for your phone. The update has been available to some users since November 2014, but many other users are still waiting for their carriers to release the update. In addition, many not-so-old smartphones are not eligible for the upgrade. At publication time, only 10 percent of all Android users were running v5 or v5.1. That includes new users and upgrades. In comparison, Apple’s iOS 8 was released in September 2014, is on its third major subversion, and has been installed on about 80 percent of compatible iPhones and iPads. No, the iOS 8 rollout was not smooth as silk either. Google claims this a significant Android upgrade, especially when it comes to the new “material design” look and feel. I do not see it. Reviewers claim Lollipop is brighter, more vibrant and better designed. I think those reviewers just read the Google press release and ran with it. Android v4.4.4, KitKat, has a bright, intuitive motif, and was designed to be faster on older phones. I like KitKat. The initial version of Lollipop simply crawled on Google’s flagship phone, the Nexus 6. It took Google almost five months to release a fix for Lollipop that allowed the Nexus 6 to run at full speed. Unfortunately, Google has stopped issuing security updates and patches for Android versions less than 4.4. So, it is KitKat or Lollipop if you want a secure phone. This policy forces an entire generation of perfectly usable phones into retirement. I am tired of the Google and Apple advertising machines, hyping every small little patch or upgrade. Eventually, users will catch on and turn off. Still interested in “Lollipop” visit android.com/ intl/en_us/versions/lollipop-5-0/ to learn more about the wonderful, fabulous, must-have features it offers. Share your Lollipop experiences by email or by commenting online at rockrivertimes.com. If you want a reliable, inexpensive Android phone, look at the Motorola Moto G (second generation) running KitKit version 4.4.4. The Moto G is not blazingly fast, but has been a very popular Android-based smartphone. The Moto G should be eligible for the Lollipop upgrade, eventually, once they work the bugs out.

Ogle County offers helpful recycling reminders

Enjoy the great entertainment on your cruise adventure

Staff Reports The Ogle County Solid Waste Management Department (OCSWMD) funds and maintains six recycling stations throughout the county. These stations are located in Byron, Forreston, Monroe Center, Polo, Oregon and Rochelle. Recycling bins are also located in Hillcrest and at the Orchard Hills Landfill in Davis Junction. The bins are co-mingled which means aluminum and steel cans, glass, plastic, paperboard, cardboard, office paper and newspaper can be placed in them. These bins are for residential use for those who don’t have access to curbside recycling, and all boxes and plastic jugs need to be flattened. Businesses wishing to recycle should contact OCSWMD. Monthly electronic take back programs are also offered by OCSWMD the last Friday of each month from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. at 909 Pines Road in Oregon at the County Annex Building garage. A full list of items accepted through these programs is available at oglecounty.org. Appliances, dehumidifiers, coffee makers, lamps, vacuums, air conditioners and power tools should not be brought to the take back programs. OCSWMD also receives several complains in spring about open burning of waste. The only waste which can be burned is landscape waste generated on the property and cannot be transported to another property to be burned. Garbage, construction and demolition debris and other waste cannot be burned and needs to be taken to a sanitary landfill for disposal. Be sure when burning landscape waste to monitor the fire at all times, burn on days when the weather, especially wind, won’t be an issue and burn only dry waste. For questions about recycling and waste disposal options in Ogle County contact the OCSWMD at 815-732-4020.

Delta Dental awards grant to Roscoe native

Delta Dental of Illinois announced the recipients of its 2015 student grants program. Each year, Delta Dental of Illinois awards two $2,500 grants to graduating dental students at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) College of Dentistry. The 2015 student grant recipients are Jaime Chowaniec and Christopher Greenwaldt. “Delta Dental of Illinois is committed to improving oral health and access to oral health care in the state,” said Bernie Glossy, Delta Dental of Illinois president and CEO. To be eligible, grant recipients must pass their National Boards, be in the top 25 percent of their class academically, plan to practice in Illinois, demonstrate an interest and/or participate in community outreach initiatives, or have declared interest in the advanced pediatric dentistry specialty. Upon graduation, Christopher Greenwaldt, a native of Roscoe, will begin a one year General Practitioner Residency program at Advocate Illinois Masonic. This program places a large emphasis on treating medically compromised patients and patients with special needs. After his residency, he plans to practice dentistry in a rural area of the state to expand access to dental care for underserved Illinoisans. Greenwaldt is a member of the pediatrics and endodontics honors programs and currently serves as the legislative liaison for the UIC chapter of the American Student Dental Association. “I want to be a role model to both future aspiring dentists and to anyone that may feel they need motivation to overcome obstacles. As a child, I battled Guillain-Barre Syndrome. As a resident at Illinois Masonic, and having gone through a childhood ailment, I feel I could relate and empathize with patients undergoing similar hardships,” said Greenwaldt.

The entertainers on the ship have it good. They are someplace near the top of the food chain and always seem happy. Our favorite to date is Mr. Greg Gallello, who is just completing his contract on Holland America’s Eurodam this week. We met Greg in 2008 on the maiden voyage across the Atlantic Ocean of the Carnival Splendor. We spent 15 amazing nights in his piano bar feeling like we had known him for years by the end of the cruise. Last February we caught up with him again for seven hot nights in the Caribbean. Last month our daughter and son-in-law Amy and Zack McIntyre along with Zack’s parents Gary and Joni, spent seven nights in Europe with Greg. I guess you could call him our buddy by now. Greg has been performing on ships in the piano bar since he was 18 years old. He is from Canada so he spends his winter cruising. Each week he has friends that return to see him and he makes new friendships as well. Even though eight years passed between our meetings, the first thing out of his mouth was, “Hey Rob, where’s Suzee?” Sadly she grew up and isn’t traveling with us much, but she’s still friends with Greg on Facebook and they will eventually reunite. It is always possible to strike up a conversation with an entertainer because they are allowed full run of the ship and shore when not performing. You might meet one of them in the buffet, laying by the pool, on a shore excursion or even wandering the streets at a port of call. We have talked

with numerous performers over the years, and try to keep track of the great ones. Since one of our daughters is a ballet teacher for Ballet Chicago, and the other plays the alto sax for Rockford’s own Moonlight Jazz orchestra, we hold a special place in our hearts for performing artists. Although we were not successful at convincing one of them to perform, for a few years on a ship, each of them has had at least one friend who took the idea and ran with it. There is only a short period of time in a young person’s life when they can do this, the time when they have no house payment & their stuff fits in storage. Imagine the opportunity to be young and see the world while collecting money instead of spending it. Further, the money earned in international waters is tax free. A musician or dancer may perform one or two shows each night, or have a short morning rehearsal, spending the remainder of their time in port or socializing on the ship. If you know a young performer who might be interested please ask them to give us a call to learn more, we would just love to share what we know and help them get a job on a ship. Rob and Lynn Belles are owners of Belles Firm of Architecture a local professional design firm, and the only real Architect Travel Agents known of. 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, even while they are traveling abroad.

Evaluating corn and soybean acreage

By Debra Levey Larson U of I News Bureau

URBANA – With a favorable planting and early growing season, attention in the corn and soybean markets is shifting toward acreage considerations. The USDA’s survey for the March 31, Prospective Plantings report revealed producer intentions to plant 89.199 million acres of corn in 2015, 1.398 million fewer acres than planted in 2014. Soybean intentions were reported at 84.635 million acres, 934,000 more than planted last year. According to University of Illinois agricultural economist Darrel Good, estimates of actual planted area of these two crops will be revealed in the June 30 Acreage report and final acreage estimates will be revealed in the January 2016 annual Crop Production report. Acreage estimates may also change with the release of monthly Crop Production reports from August through November. “History suggests that acreage estimates will differ from intentions reported in March,” Good said. “Before examining that history, it is useful to understand a bit of the USDA acreage estimation procedures. Estimates of planting intentions are based on the March Agricultural Survey conducted in early March. “The survey is a probability survey in that operations surveyed (about 84,000 in 2015) represent a sample drawn from a list of all producers in such a way that all operations have a chance to be included. Surveyed producers are asked to report acres planted or to be planted this spring or summer. “The June acreage estimates are based on a combination of the June Agricultural Survey of producers (about 71,000 in 2014) and area frame surveys of parcels of land of about one square mile in size,” Good continued. “About 11,000 such parcels were surveyed in 2014. Producers were asked to account for all the acreage in

each parcel. Acreage estimates include intentions for unplanted area. The final estimate of planted acreage is based on the December Agricultural Surveyof producers (about 83,000 in 2014) supplemented with administrative data, primarily acreage reported to the Farm Service Agency,” he said. Good said in the 19 years from 1996 (the first year that farm policy allowed for more planting flexibility) through 2014, the final estimate of corn-planted acreage exceeded the estimate of March planting intentions in seven years, in a range of 308 thousand to 3.073 million acres. Acreage was less than intentions in 12 years, in a range of 32 thousand to 1.917 million acres. The direction (although not magnitude) of the change was correctly signaled by the June estimate in 13 years and incorrectly signaled in six years. The final estimate of planted acreage of corn exceeded the June acreage estimate in only five years, in a range of 47 thousand to 750 thousand acres. In the other 14 years, the final estimate was below the June estimate in a range of 28 thousand to 2.014 million acres. In those same 19 years, the final estimate of soybean planted acreage exceeded the estimate of March planting intentions in 10 years, in a range of 25 thousand to 3.296 million acres. Acreage was less than intentions in nine years, in a range of 203 thousand to 2.582 million acres. The direction of the change from March intentions to final acreage estimate was correctly signaled by the June estimate in 16 years and incorrectly signaled in three years. The final estimate of planted acreage of soybeans exceeded the June acreage estimate in seven years, in a range of 300 thousand to 1.185 million acres. In the other 12 years, the final estimate was below the June estimate in a range of 32 thousand to 1.464 million acres. The final estimate of combined corn and

soybean acreage exceeded the March intentions estimate in 10 years, in a range of 126 thousand to 4.587 million acres. In the other nine years, acreage was less than intentions, in a range of 197 thousand to 3.573 million acres. “Recent history reveals a checkered pattern of changing corn and soybean acreage estimates from March intentions to the final estimate,” Good said. “Many of those changes may have been related to producer responses to changing prices and/or weather conditions. Not fully appreciated, however, is the role that sampling errors might play in the changes in acreage estimates through the cycle. There is a tendency to view the acreage estimates as precise estimates based on a census of producers. The USDA reports that combined sampling errors are typically between 1 and 3 percent. The size and direction of these errors through the acreage estimating cycle could explain some of the changes in estimates,” he said. For a more complete discussion of sampling error, see the farmdoc daily article of April 2, 2015. What about this year? “There seems to be some consensus that the June 30 USDA Acreage report will reveal that combined acreage of corn and soybeans exceeds March intentions, with slightly fewer corn acres and substantially more soybean acres,” Good said. “Some expect an increase as the result of a decline in Conservation Reserve Program acres and minimum prevented planted acres. That logic seems to ignore the likelihood that intentions reported in March should have already reflected CRP decisions and close to zero prevented planted acres. “For the most part, an expected increase in acreage is based on the perception that March intentions did not account for all the crop land acreage,” Good concluded. “As pointed out in the farmdoc daily article of April 2, 2015, that conclusion should be tempered by recognizing the sampling variability inherent in acreage estimates. Even so, an increase of one to three million acres in the estimate of planted acres of principal crops, mostly soybeans, would not be a surprise.”

This Week: As we merge into Mercury Retrograde many of you will begin to feel more at ease. It’s like riding a bike actually, once you learn you never forget. It’s just those flat tires or loud traffic noises at first that make you feel a little unsteady. Then we are in a Zen mode, and nothing can come between you and your own personal peace. The new moon in Taurus May 18 may have blown open an emotional abscess of some sort that many of you will be in the midst of cleaning up as the week progresses. However; remember that even though an abscess can be messy, it also relieves a lot of pain and pressure, and it will eventually heal. Aries (March 21 to April 19) — Legal matters for you or a loved one will be resolved in your favor shortly. An unexpected financial windfall puts you at the top of your game at this time. An idea that you had in the past will fall into place now. Timing is everything, take this opportunity to move forward with a career or creative project. This will be the year that this is well received and understood Aries. Taurus (April 20 to May 20)— Don’t make any promises that you can’t keep at this time. It’s better to gather more information about an individual or a source before you jump in too deep. Contacting

an individual from your past may not work out as you anticipated at this time. It maybe better for you to leave this sit for now. Progress with financial debt slowly but surely evolves now. Think about your long-term goals Taurus. Gemini (May 21 to June 20) — You may be the one to shed the light for another who is trying to get out from the emotional control of an overpowering individual. Now might be a good time to step back and look at any progress this person has developed on their own. You should not get into the habit of holding this person up. This will create a strain on you and drain your energy. Midweek brings a surprise encounter with an individual from your past. This brings positive results Gemini. Cancer (June 21 to July 22) — Romantic connections arrive out of the blue this week providing plenty of opportunities for single Cancers to contemplate. Meanwhile attached Cancers find a deeper layer of love and commitment from their significant others. Long-distance communication enlightens you and clarifies the recent strange behavior of another. Once you receive all of this data it will much easier to navigate around this individual Cancer. Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22) — Unexpected developments with family have a surprise twist this week for the better. Someone provides you with an answer to a prayer now. Another is able to help you sort out your behavior in the recent past. The underlying negative influences of another will be exposed now. From there you will move forward with clarity and confidence. Work aspects are favorable by week’s end Leo.

Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) — A female may try to work against your relationship sector behind the scenes. Information you receive now needs to be dealt with effectively. Avoiding this or going into denial about it will only compound the problem. Providing support to a loved one is your best bet now. Validating their feelings is crucial at this time. What comes to light needs to be taken seriously Virgo. Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) — Legal matters revolving around a loved one or yourself could come to the forefront this week as a result of a past action taken in the heat of the moment. Make sure that you own only what is yours and do not extend that thought process any further. In other words, instead of focusing on the activities of those around you, concentrate on your own personal best. You may need to take a time out from someone that is getting on your last nerve Libra. Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) — Information you receive now needs to be taken to heart, even if it is not presented in the best possible light. Someone is concerned and they may be able to see something that you are currently not able to visualize. Try to listen to the facts and not allow the delivery of this to cloud your judgment. This information will be valuable in the months to come Scorpio. Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) — It appears that your physical and emotional status are beginning to improve as the month wears on, and no one is more pleased about this than you.

The true cost of nuclear power Producers cry wolf, but old plants dispel easy answers

Nuclear v gas and solar

By John Parsons TheConversation.com

hat is the economic cost of nuclear power? That turns out to be a very difficult question to answer. The United States and other countries have plentiful experience building and operating nuclear power plants. Currently 438 nuclear reactors with a combined capacity of 379,000 megawatts generate more than 10% of the total electricity used worldwide. The US has the largest fleet, with 99 reactors generating almost 20 percent of US electricity. France has the second-largest, with 58 reactors producing 77 percent of its electricity. The Chinese fleet of 27 reactors generates under 3 percent of its electricity. Nevertheless, there is great uncertainty about the cost of building new plants. The existing fleet in the US and most developed countries is very old, dating back to a period of intense growth in the 1960s and 1970s. In the US, the most recent construction permit for an operating reactor was issued in 1978, although completion work on a couple of stalled projects and “uprates” - capital refurbishment that increases capacity - have occurred at a number of units. New construction fell off in other developed countries, too. The few additions made since 1990 were mostly in Japan, Korea, Eastern Europe, Russia and China. Since 2000, however, there has been renewed interest in constructing new nuclear capacity, partially due to the dramatic increase in fossil fuel prices before the financial crisis and also growing concern about CO2 emissions from fossil fuels. Unfortunately, it’s been difficult to know how much it costs to build new plants because of this lack of recent experience. The table to the right shows an estimate by the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) of the future cost of electricity from new nuclear plants compared with the cost from new natural gas-fired generators and utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) units. Among the three options shown, nuclear power is right in the middle, with total costs in 2012 of about $96 per megawatt hour (MWh), most of which involves capital construction costs. On the high end is solar power at $130 per MWh, and gas at the low end at $64 per MWh. The estimates for the capital cost of nuclear – for plants entering service in 2019 – assume that units can be built without the disastrous delays

and overruns that plagued the US industry in the past, and which have plagued some recent projects, too. And the nuclear estimate also doesn’t take into account the benefit of certain subsidies currently available for some new construction.

Fluctuating costs

Among the reasons it has become so difficult to know the price of nuclear is that supply chains have atrophied and hard-won engineering and construction experience has dissipated. Meanwhile, social pressures for improved safety – preceding the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan – forced design changes over the years, and we have yet to see what the impact will be on actual construction costs. In 2005, the French firm Areva began construction at Olkiluoto, Finland, of its new design, the EPR reactor, a pressurized water reactor built to resist the impact of a commercial airline crash. Unfortunately, that unit is, so far, five years overdue and projected to cost three times the original estimate. Construction of a second new EPR unit at Flammanville, France, was begun in 2007 and is already three years overdue with a more than doubling of projected costs. Regulators in France have also recently discovered “very serious” weak spots in the reactor there. In 2013, Southern Company began construction of two new units at the Vogtle station in the state of Georgia using Westinghouse’s new

AP1000 design. Those units, too, have already run into delays and cost overruns, although the process is not far enough along to draw a firm conclusion about the impact on cost. These cases evoke memories of the very bad experience with construction delays and cost overruns that plagued the US industry from the 1970s.

China’s building spree

In fact, the majority of new construction in recent years has been in China. The country has 27 reactors already in operation, all but three of which were built since 2000. The 24 reactors presently under construction in China represent more than one-third of current global construction. So far, there has been no public record of major construction delays and cost overruns in China, although it is difficult to know what lesson to draw from that fact for projects in the West and elsewhere. It is also difficult to use the cost of their construction to inform estimates of what costs might be in the US or other developed countries. Uncertainty about the cost of construction is overwhelmingly important in determining the cost of electricity from nuclear because building the plant accounts for nearly 80% of the total price tag. More predictable fuel and operating costs, including waste disposal, account for the remainder. While waste disposal poses important and contentious safety and environmental questions, economically speaking it is not a major factor. The same is true of decommissioning costs.

The EIA’s estimate for the natural gas fuel cost, in the table near the top of the article, assumes a price increasing from approximately US$5 per million British Thermal Units to just under $8 between 2019 and 2040, reflecting the currently low prices in the US. It does not, however, include any charge or penalty for the greenhouse gas emissions associated with natural gas-fired generator. Similarly, neither the cost of nuclear nor the cost of solar reflects any of the government subsidies currently available. All of these numbers make assumptions about capacity and other factors that need to be scrutinized. As such, the table makes a couple of key points, and leaves out important ones, too. At current natural gas prices, and absent a price on carbon, the economics of the natural gas-fired plant clearly make it the cheapest. This is why a large share of new construction in the US is natural gas-fired, and also why existing units are capturing a larger share of the wholesale market. However, natural gas prices are notoriously volatile, which is why many regions worry about diversifying their supply despite the fact that electricity from natural gas is currently cheap. The US has used the switch from coal to natural gas as a tool for making an initial dent in its carbon emissions, but in order to make the reductions necessary over the long run, it will eventually be necessary to cut emissions from natural gas-fired generation absolutely. Solar PV is a zero-carbon emission source of electricity that is currently costly relative to nuclear and natural gas. This cost has declined dramatically in recent years, and we can expect further reductions in the coming years. While the US can probably afford to source a significant fraction of its electricity generation from solar PV even when the cost is higher than power sourced from fossil fuels, further decreases in cost are essential in order for fast-growing developing countries to do the same. Nuclear is also a zero-carbon source of electricity, and, among the options for emission-free power, its economics look good. However, that assumes that the forecast cost of construction is reliable. That has not always been true, and the current new builds in Europe and the US do not inspire confidence. In addition, society’s concerns about waste and safety have often overridden the narrow economic perspective. The future contribution that nuclear power makes to expanding economic development without harmful carbon emissions hinges on whether the industry can make progress in controlling capital costs while addressing society’s safety and waste disposal concerns.

Where will nuclear power plants of the future be built? By Paul Dorfman TheConversation.com

Nuclear power has had a makeover. What was once seen as a futuristic source of limitless energy has been reframed as a response to global warming, an ideal solution for countries looking for a continuous source of low-carbon power. But who are these countries? At the moment 31 different nations operate nuclear power plants (see page 14 here, with a total of 388 reactors, and before Fukushima, most planned nuclear power plant projects were in Asia and Eastern Europe, extending a trend from earlier years. Industry lobbyists the World Nuclear Association suggests that nuclear power capacity worldwide is increasing steadily, with more than 60 reactors under construction in 13 countries. They say that eight countries are either planning to build for the first time (Belarus and United Arab Emirates), have signed contracts (Lithuania and Turkey), or have some plans to build (Bangladesh, Jordan, Poland, and Vietnam). In contrast, the more independent World Nuclear Industry Status Report describes a declining trend, with annual nuclear electricity generation reaching a maximum of 266 GW in 2006 and dropping to 235 GW in 2013 – with 50 fewer operating reactors than the peak in 2002, and total installed capacity comparable to levels last seen two decades ago. This decline is also confirmed in BP’s recent Energy Outlook. In terms of new build, 67 reactors are under constructionworldwidewithatotalcapacityof64GW.For the nuclear industry this at first sounds promising, but then “under construction” doesn’t necessarily mean it will be finished any time soon – work first began on onereactoropenedinArgentinalastyearbackin1981. It’s true to say that the risk to people, the environment and to the future of nuclear energy from another major incident is still very real, and reactor accidents from “beyond design-base” cascading events, such as the Fukushima disaster and all other major nuclear accidents, are the single largest financial risk – far outweighing the combined effect of market, credit, construction and operational risks. The thing is, in trying to “design out” these accidents, reactors have become much more expensive, complex, and hence, difficult to build on time and on budget. Of the 67 currently being built, eight reactors have been under construction for more than 20 years, another for 12 years; and at least 49 have significant delays. For the remaining 18 reactor units, either construction began within the past five years or the reactors haven’t reached projected start-up dates, with construction projects in Finland and France very many years behind schedule. The Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom is building in Russia, China, and Belarus, and claims more than 20 export reactor orders in Iran, Turkey, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Jordan, Hungary, Finland, Egypt, India and South Africa. But there are questions about whether it’s got the finances and supply chain

resources to carry out more than a small fraction of these – most depend on Russian finance, hit hard by the recent downturn, and Rosatom is already facing delays in its homeland due to lack of resources. Meanwhile, the World Nuclear Status Report shows that China has 28 reactors under construction – 42% of the world’s total new-build - with 21 reactors (17 GW) in operation, which in 2013 provided 2.1% of the country’s electricity. If all their reactors under construction come online before 2020, this would bring the total to 49 reactors. To put this into perspective, in 2013 alone, China installed 12 GW of solar, a threefold increase over 2012. AndrecenteventshavechallengedChina’splansfor nuclear.There’sbeentheusualconstructiondelays,cost increases, doubts over the siting of reactors in provinces inland, and questions over safety and regulatory oversight–and,remarkably,justlastmonth,significant faultswerefoundinthereactorpressurevesselsalready installed in the Areva EPRs at Taishan 1 and 2. While nuclear carries very real technical and regulatory risk – construction cost represents a key challenge. New builds will only go ahead after government guarantees public subsidies, including long-term power purchase agreements. This is because the private sector can’t afford to build new nuclear plants themselves. The reality is that nuclear new builds are high-value, high-risk projects with a marked tendency for significant delay and delay claims, cost growth and investor risk. For example, in Finland, their nuclear corporation TVO is pressing a €2.7 billion compensation claim for delays to the Olkiluoto EPR nuclear power plant. Perhaps amusingly, the French nuclear corporation Areva is in turn demanding €3.5 billion from TVO. The project’s turn-key price was €3 billion in 2005 and the current estimated price stands at €8.5 billion, with a construction time of 13 years and rising. And just recently, TVO has dashed Areva hopes of building any more EPRs in Finland. So the general post-Fukushima situation in the EU implies there will be limited construction in the coming decade. Although new builds are still planned in Finland, France and the UK - Italy and Switzerland have cancelled plans for new reactors, Belgium has confirmedanuclearphase-out,andeightEUcountries have signed a declaration that nuclear power is incompatible with the concept of sustainable development. At the heart of the nuclear question are differing views on value for money, foresight and responsibility. Huge long-term investments are needed and it’s clear there are critical social, environmental and economic decisions to be made. Germany, Europe’s dominant electricity user, has made its choice. Its decision to phase out nuclear power by 2022 and to instead invest in renewables, efficiency measures, grid infrastructure and energy storage, will prove significant for both European and international energy policy.

Voices from the Grave

Civil War POW camps the final stop for many

By Kathi Kresol Contributor

The Camp Sumner Military Prison at Andersonville, Georgia was of one of the biggest Confederate prisoners of war camps during the Civil War. It operated for 14 months and 45,000 Union prisoners passed through the gates even though the camp was designed for 10,000 men. Lack of food and clean water, no shelter from the elements and no medical care for the wounded left the men susceptible to disease–13,000 of the men would die in the camp. 151 years have passed since the closing of the camp and today we know the horror stories of the survivors. Horatio Foote’s family moved to Rockford the first time in 1838 and his father, Hiram, a Congregational Minister preached the first official sermon in town. The family moved to Wisconsin and it was in Racine in 1843 that Horatio was born. In 1862, Horatio enlisted in the 1st Wisconsin Cavalry Regiment Company B and went to Missouri for training. The regiment would be involved in fierce fighting including the Battle of Chickamauga in September of 1863. In May of 1864, the men of the 1st Wisconsin were involved with the Battle of Varnell’s Station in Georgia. General Joseph Wheeler’s 900 Confederates fought against Brigadier General Edward McCook’s 5,000 Federals.

Only 10 Confederate men lost their lives while 150 Federals were killed. Wheeler’s men also captured 100 Union soldiers that day and Horatio Foote was one of them. Horatio and the other men were sent first to Andersonville and in September of 1864 they were moved to The Florence Stockade in Florence, South Carolina. During 1864, General Sherman was leaving a trail of devastation during the Atlanta Campaign and Camp Sumner (Andersonville) was right in the path. The decision was made to close the camp and scatter the prisoners to other existing camps. The Confederates also decided to build a new camp and chose Florence, South Carolina for the location because of the three railroads that traveled through the city. Men were being moved into the Florence Stockade before it was even completed. The ones who were too ill to be moved from Andersonville were left behind. The men who were transferred were kept under control by the Confederates telling them that they had been paroled and would be allowed to return to their homes. One can only imagine the heartbreaking moment when these soldiers who had suffered so much at Andersonville discovered the truth about their destination. The Florence Stockade was designed like Andersonville with a creek running through the middle

and a trench all around the outside to prevent the men captured from digging escape tunnels. Confederate Major Frederick Warley supervised the 1,000 prisoners of war were used to construct the camp. The 1,400 foot long rectangle was enclosed with a timber fence. There was a “deadline” 10 feet from the fence that the guards were told to shoot anyone who passed that line. The prison opened in September of 1864 and within a month 12,000 men were imprisoned there. Supplies were so scarce that even the Confederate guards didn’t have enough to eat. Disease was widespread. The death rate was 20-30 men per day. One Union soldier who survived both, John McElroy, wrote, “I think also that all who experienced confinement in the two places are united in pronouncing Florence to be, on the whole, much the worse place and more fatal to life.” Part of the reason that Florence proved so deadly was the weakened state that the prisoners arrived in from their time in Andersonville. The camp closed in February of 1865. Horatio did not survive the camp and his body, like many others, was buried in a mass grave with no real identification possible. The area is now a national cemetery. Horatio’s family wanted him to be remembered and listed his information on a memorial marker with his other family members at Cedar Bluff Cemetery.

Black Hawk statue restoration moves forward By Susan Johnson

Contributor

With the spring season advancing, and as people start making vacation plans, one popular Illinois tourist attraction still stands awaiting a much-needed refurbishing. The famous Black Hawk Statue in Lowden State Park, Ogle County, has withstood many rough winters over the decades, but now, after years of neglect, the iconic historical figure is literally crumbling. Waiting till next year may be too late. Constructed by sculptor Lorado Taft in 1910, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was originally titled The Eternal Indian as a composite of local native tributes but later was called “Black Hawk” in honor of the Sauk leader who led a brave but futile effort to defend his people’s homeland against the whites who had taken the land. The battle is commemorated as the Black Hawk War of 1832. Beginning in 2008, Frank and Charron Rausa, retirees who live in Sterling, Illinois, have been spearheading a drive to restore the statue. Frank Rausa had worked as a grant writer, and he wrote one to acquire funding for restoration, but the effort failed. After that, the Rausas established a nonprofit organization, Friends of the Black Hawk Statue Committee, and placed the statue on the National Register of Historic Places. They have spoken to groups such as Rotary, Kiwanis, alumni associations and historical societies. They created “Pennies for Black Hawk,” in which local school children contributed coins for the effort. A Sterling High School computer graphics class also produced a 13-minute promotional DVD. As the campaign gained public exposure, funding was obtained from the Dillon Foundation in Sterling and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. The Jeffris Family Foundation in Janesville, Wisconsin, contributed a $150,000 matching grant. For the last few years, the town of Oregon, Illinois, has contributed proceeds from its July festival, Oregon Trail Days, celebrating “Oregon’s American Indian and Western Heritage,” but this festival was concluded last year. Restoration architects have taken care samples from the bottom part of the statue to determine what needs to be done. The statue has developed cracks, and large pieces of its concrete surface have been dislodged. The folded arms of the monolith are severely damaged. Large chunks have fallen out of the elbow of the right arm and from underneath the left arm. The winter of 2013-14 showed further damage, and now the situation for

the statue has become critical. The original funding goal had been set at approximately $724,000, but it became apparent that this figure would have to be increased. Since this writer had previously

spoken with Frank Rausa for an article for this newspaper, he was contacted again for an update. SJ: What is the status of the project right now? How far are you from your financial goal?

Frank Rausa: On April 27 the Illinois Department of Natural Resources issued contracts for the conservator, the one who’s doing the restoration. They issued a contract to a company that’s going to oversee the project. Amy Woods, formerly of Thornton Tomasetti [Research Development Group, New York], is now with Simpson, Gumpertz & Heger, Chicago. The next step is, they have to do some testing of materials that they will inject in some of the cracks. They will wash and clean the statue. They will start filling in some of the cracks. As far as the goal, we are about $50,000-$75,000 away. They know that there is more damage because they did a lot of physical testing last year, and there is a lot of damage that was shown by the radar. So they won’t know how much damage there is until they start removing some of the surface of the statue. Some of it is so thin that you could flick it off with a finger. In some areas, it is not too bad. The structural concrete and the inside surface, and the exterior surface is the finishing coat. That is the one they will have to start removing. The analogy I use is the person who has a heart problem, and they do the heart scan, and they won’t know until they actually get inside. We’re budgeting that we probably need another $50,000-$75,000. SJ: A Chicago Tribute article in January made reference to your wife’s cancer diagnosis and her determination to see the project through to complete. How is she doing now? FR: She’s doing well. She is having chemotherapy, and there is Stage 4 lung cancer in both lungs, the lymph nodes, the liver and some of the bones in the arms. SJ: We certainly wish her well. Have you received any more funds from the Dillon Foundation, the Jeffris Family Foundation or others? Have all grant resources been exhausted? FR: They’ve made contributions, and other contributions have been made. Once we get the construction started, we’ll have one more push for the campaign. Right now, it’s all conjecture how much we need. But we want to wait until we actually get going. Note: Tax-deductible donations can be made at ilcf.org or mail to: Illinois Conservation Foundation, One Natural Resources Way, Springfield, IL 62702. (Indicate the donation is for the Black Hawk Statue.)

Nation

America’s legacy of hollowed-out cities Across the nation, the story of Baltimore is far from unique By John Rennie Short U of Maryland, Baltimore County

ow that the dust has settled and the media have moved onto the next crisis, we can ponder what the Baltimore riots tell us about broader and deeper issues in the US. Using a stress testing approach I developed for other major social events helps reveal the many forces at play. Among them are decades of biased economic policies, class differences as well as racism, structural problems in metropolitan America, the consequences of aggressive policing and the geography of multiple deprivations.

Long time coming

The fundamental problems faced by Baltimore and other industrial cities are a result of decades of economic change stemming from policies that promoted deindustrialization and job losses for the semi-skilled and unskilled. In 1950, Baltimore had a population of 950,000 and, like may cities in the US, a vibrant manufacturing base providing jobs and economic security. The magnet of jobs attracted black migrants from the South. Since the mid-1970s, though, there has been a steady loss of manufacturing jobs due to offshoring, relocation to suburbs in non-union areas of the US and increased productivity. This is a trend across the US and across the world but in Baltimore, as in so many industrial cities in the US, there were few employment alternatives or attempts at retraining. The result is pockets of poverty in neighborhoods across the country where there are concentrations of the unskilled and limited opportunities for retraining older workers or education for younger people. It is ironic that at the same time that President Obama was sympathizing with the plight of Baltimore, he was also promoting a free trade agenda. Even more ironic, he made the announcement at the headquarters of Nike, a company that last made a pair of shoes in the US in 1984 and makes all of its apparel in the cheap labor areas of East and Southeast Asia. There are benefits to free trade, but we need a honest assessment of their redistributional consequences and a much greater commitment to job training and help for those displaced when manufacturing jobs are lost. And while the Baltimore riots focus attention on race, we also need to consider the issue of class. It is so much easier to talk about race in the US than class, and so the the debate is easily racialized while the wider issue of restricted opportunities for the semi- and unskilled, black as well as white and brown, is ignored. There is a squeeze on the semi- and unskilled, with the squeeze all that much tighter on the minority groups. The events in Baltimore, often seen through only the prism of race, are also freighted with concerns of class. The sociologist William Julius Wilson showed that the disappearance of work is the central cause of social disorganization in the inner city.

Geo-economic disconnect

There is also the balkanization of metropolitan America by which declining central cities are cut off from the economic benefits of suburban growth. Baltimore’s population declined from almost a million in 1950

Graffiti in New Orleans. Bart Everson/flickr, Creative Commons

to just over 622,000 in 2013. The wider Baltimore metropolitan area, which includes Baltimore and surrounding suburban counties, has grown from 1.1 to 2.7 million in 2010, with the fourth largest median income in the US. I examined this hollowing out of central city cores in my book, Alabaster Cities, and a series of recent papers. County governments, not the city, reap all the benefits of this increased property and income taxes. There is a fiscal disparity between central city and suburbs, with the city pressed hard to meet the mounting social needs of an increasingly impoverished population with a diminishing tax base. This fiscal squeeze promotes, in Baltimore as in other similar cities, an emphasis on flagship downtown developments such as football stadia, ballparks, race car events and convention centers. These benefit downtown business interests but fail to do much for the stubborn poverty in the inner city. Cities concentrate on attracting middle- and upper-income groups because they provide revenue. And across urban America, we sees pockets of gentrification and gleaming downtown towers beside these persistent pockets of poverty. Yet hamstrung by job loss, declining revenue and population loss, many cities across the US still have the heavy lift of making up for decades of federal neglect and lack of a coherent and well-funded urban policy program.

Policing in America

The policing of the cities in the US is dominated by what amounts to a war against low-income minority neighborhoods. In 1980, the US had a prison population of 500,000, but by 2013 this increased to 2.5 million as more young men, especially young men of color, were caught up in an expanding web of criminal

incarceration as minor infractions became felonies. The narratives of tough on crime, broken windows theory, war on drugs and militarization have all escalated into an aggressive policing and a fractured trust between residents and police. To compound problems, these neighborhoods also suffer from multiple deprivations that include abandoned dwellings that are sites of fires, disease, criminal activity and unhealthy environments. Elevated lead levels in inner city Baltimore make it difficult for children to learn and concentrate. So it is not just limited employment and educational opportunities but also a complex web of multiple deprivation that effectively traps people. There are many Baltimores. Within the city boundaries, there are old established elite areas such as Roland Park and more recently gentrified areas such as Federal Hill. The Baltimore of the riots was only part of the city, a swath of inner city neighborhoods impacted by job loss, poor education and aggressive policing. But there are other Baltimores outside of Maryland. They include Akron, Birmingham, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Detroit, Pittsburgh and Toledo. It is not just an inner city problem. Along with Bernadette Hanlon and Tom Vicino, I have documented the problems of inner ring of suburbs. There are also the bleak areas in the cracks of the metropolis: the trailer parks and suburban rental units that house those pushed out of the city by gentrification and redevelopment. Baltimores of economic neglect, massive job loss, aggressive policing and multiple deprivations are found throughout metropolitan regions across the country. They are the places of despair that house the voiceless of the US political system, the marginalized of the US economy and those left behind in the commodification of US society. The remarks of Martin Luther King Jr made in 1966 still have resonance: “A riot is the language of the unheard.” TheConversation.com.

MLB

Cubs bats impress but pitching issues persist

By Nate Johnson Columnist

earing the quarter mark in this 2015 season, the Chicago Cubs continue to keep the hopes of fans high as they sit solidly in second place in the National League Central (and firmly in the mix for a wild card) after taking six out of seven games from the Mets and the Pirates during a homestand that also featured the return of the Wrigley Field bleachers. Despite a 3-0 loss on Sunday to Pittsburgh snapping a 6-game winning streak, plenty of excitement remained around the team’s recent play. After seemingly waiting forever for his first major league home run, Kris Bryant went deep four times over a five-game stretch and holds the team lead in runs batted in with 24. Teammate Anthony Rizzo is somehow managing to be even stronger at the plate than Bryant, with a batting average just shy of .350, a Cubs-leading 8 home runs, and a staggering 1.073 OPS. Add the steady progression (and some very solid defense) from Addison Russell and flashes of power from catcher Miguel Montero, and the Cubs continue to make strides on the offensive side of the game.

Maddon’s influence has been very evident with increased focus on base-running aggression and plate discipline, resulting in Chicago sitting in the top third of the league in on-base percentage

and only trailing Cincinnati in stolen bases. On the flip side, however, spotty pitching has proven an issue for the team. Weak middle relief has already cost Phil Coke his place on the

team and others could follow. Travis Wood has moved into the bullpen (joining Edwin Jackson, who had already lost his spot in the rotation) to make room for lefty Tsuyoshi Wada, who will make his season debut against San Diego on the upcoming west coast road trip. The front end of the rotation remains firm, as new ace Jon Lester has bounced back from a shaky start to tie Jake Arrieta for the team lead in wins with four, and Jason Hammel continues the steady ways he showed Cubs fans last season. Catcher Wellington Castillo was sent to the Mariners Tuesday in exchange for reliever Yoervis Medina. Not only does it clear up the extra catcher problem (carrying three any time before September is rarely a good idead) but it looks to be a strong move to bolster the bullpen. Medina has made 141 appearances for the M’s since 2013, racking up 140 Ks in 137.0 innings and posting a 2.82 ERA. Besides the continued grind of the division schedule, an upcoming series against Kansas City and seven games in two weeks against the Washington Nationals will certainly test this team’s mettle, but it appears that the excitement could very well last, if not grow, as summer comes to the Friendly Confines.

Is the AL Central baseball’s strongest division? By Nicholas Schaefer The Catbird Seat

or the majority of the life of the AL Central it has been a bit of a punching bag for the AL West and AL East. The Red Sox and Yankees were dominant for years, leveraging their massive resources and cagey front offices into 90-plus win seasons like clockwork. The Angels, too, gradually morphed into a perennial contender shaped by massive payrolls. Then all it took was particularly savvy front offices for teams like Texas, Oakland, and Tampa Bay and all of a sudden you had 40-50 percent of the AL as strong teams, none of which were in the Central. As many observed coming into this season, however, the landscape of the American League looks very different - in the preseason, there weren’t any readily identifiable “dominant” teams. Uncertainty about which .500-ish looking teams would hit their upsides or disappoint made it unclear as to whether any division would stand out as good or bad. So far, though, the AL Central has been the best division in the league. Coming into the year, most projections had the Tigers-Royals-White Sox-Indians in some arrangement at the top, with the Twins as the clear laggard of the group. It may still turn out

that way, but Minnesota’s – what looks like cluster-luck driven – good start saw Cleveland and Chicago fall behind at the outset while Detroit and Kansas City leapt out to hot starts. A lot of this was a zero sum game. The White Sox’ first 17 games of the season, for example, wound up being against divisional opponents and with the effect of the Baltimore civil unrest, they wound up playing 24 of their first 25 against divisional rivals. Cleveland had 17 of their first 20 intradivisionally, the Twins 22 of their first 25, etc. etc. (This is all rather intuitive as they are, by definition, playing each other). But, in the past couple of weeks, the Central is branching out, and after going 9-1 in the past couple of days, the division has a record of 33-18 against the AL East, AL West, and NL. Indeed, the Central is now 16-6 against the AL West in particular. This is by no means dispositive - there are a multitude of variables when assessing Divisional strength, particularly depending on how much of an emphasis you place on depth v. top-end quality, or perhaps just the weakness of a truly terrible team. Besides, baseball fans at this point should be

very familiar with the notion that fluctuations of luck can yield wonky outcomes in terms of wins and losses. Plus, it’s still very early. But perhaps we could have seen things trending in this direction last year. Outside of Minnesota, the four other Central teams were above .500 against extradivisional opponents last year as well. It is increasingly likely that there has been a move toward parity, and a top-to-bottom improvement in the quality of the division. On the one hand, the White Sox can’t make the weakness of the AL Central the core of their

strategy for making the playoffs. On the other hand, if the Central is really good, that means wins will be pulled into the division instead of leaking out of it - making the wild card more attainable. And, although the White Sox played some of the worst baseball I’ve ever seen to start the year, it may be that they were being helped along by playing a more difficult schedule than we realized.

ICEHOGS From Page 46

The following night, Rockford lost a close game 2-1 in an overtime heartbreaker. Grand Rapids Tyler Bertuzzi put the Griffins on the board first with a nice redirect over the shoulder of Michael Leighton 6:48 into the contest for the only marker in the first period. Rockford managed to solve Tom McCollum 9:01 into the second period on Rockford’s second shot on goal of the period. Phillip Danault came streaking into the offensive zone as McNeill found him on the left side. The one-timer found the back of the net and knotted the score at 1-1. Rockford outshot the Griffins by a grand total of 4-3 in a defensive second period. A scoreless third period had both teams head off for an overtime session. Grand Rapids outshot Rockford 15-9 in the third, but could not slip a puck past Leighton. The IceHogs won the faceoff in the overtime session and quickly put a shot on net. The rebound was picked up by Grand Rapids, who quickly raced into the offensive zone. A shot was put on the Rockford net, and Leighton let out a juicy rebound. The rubber landed right on the stick of Bertuzzi who lifted the puck over Leighton 13 seconds into the overtime session for the game winner, putting Rockford down 3-1 in the series. Both teams met on Sunday at 4 p.m. for game five of the series and Rockford put themselves behind the 8-ball early. Once again, it was Pulkkinen scoring for Grand Rapids, as their first shot of the game on a power play gave them the early 1-0 lead. In a tight defensive battle, Rockford was outshot 8-5, and also on

the scoreboard by 1-0. The second period started out worse as Andy Miele scored 39 seconds into the period. The goal signaled the surprising end for Leighton as Mac Carruth came on in relief. Carruth did not fare well either as his second shot against was a goal off the stick of Marek Tvrdon, putting Rockford in a big 3-0 hole. Tanner Kero lit a fire under Rockford with his second marker of the post season, closing the gap to 3-1. That lead lasted seven minutes as Carruth had a puck sneak by his pads at 12:21, giving the Griffins another three-goal cushion. Rockford was once again outplayed in the period with Grand Rapids holding a 13-4 advantage and 21-9 overall after two periods. With the defense on lockdown mode the Griffins shut the door on the game, and Rockford’s season when Jeff Hoggan raced down a puck and fired it into the empty net for a 5-1 lead. Rockford made a go of it with 3:46 left in the game when Zach Miskovic fired a slapshot off the crossbar and behind McCollum, giving Rockford a ray of hope to tie up the score. With the Rockford net empty again, Brandon Mashinter was in close on the net, where he grabbed a loose puck from a Tanner Kero shot and fired it into the top corner over McCollum’s shoulder, cutting the lead to 5-3 with 1:59 left in the game. Rockford tried again to put more pressure on the goalmouth, but were not able find the back of the net again, and the Griffins would hang on to win 5-3. Now that the season is over keep an eye out for a season recap and an interview with Mike Peck as we wrap things up for the 2014-2015 IceHogs campaign.

Tales from the Trough

‘Hogs lower the curtain Grand Rapids rolls through BMO, takes series 4-1 By Todd Reicher Exclusive to TRRT

The Rockford IceHogs only managed to win one of three games in the second round of the Calder Cup playoffs at home this past week, losing the series 4-1. Rockford’s first of three straight home games took place last Wednesday with the ‘Hogs coming out on top 4-1, bringing the series to a manageable 2-1 deficit. An aggressive forecheck combined with a hard-hitting pace helped Rockford jump ahead 2-0 after 20 minutes of play. It looked like Rockford would go down early when Cody Bass was flagged for a five-minute major for charging. Disaster turned into fortune 25 seconds later when Mark McNeill tallied the first goal of the game on a short-handed breakaway. McNeill jumped into the defensive passing lane then muscled his way past two defenders as he picked up speed. Once alone, he shifted from forehand to backhand, then lifted the puck into the net. Ryan Hartman then tallied a power play goal with 1:24 left in the period to put Rockford up by two. IceHogs nemesis this series Teemu Pulkkinen scored his 12th of

the post-season 8:27 into the second period on the power play with a slapshot off the post to close the gap to a single goal. With the Griffins looking to get back into the game Stephen Johns grabbed a misplayed puck in the offensive zone and fired it home to increase the Rockford lead to 3-1. Spencer Abbott, who has been quiet in the second round, found an empty net with 3:03 left in regulation to seal the win with a 4-1 victory. See ICEHOGS on Page 45 Above: The Rockford IceHogs salute the fans after their 5-3 defeat on Sunday against the Grand Rapids Griffins. The loss gave the Griffins a 4-1 series victory, sending them to the Western Conference finals to play the winner of the Utica Comets/Oklahoma City Barons series. The Eastern Conference Finals is set with the Manchester Monarchs hosting the Hartford Wolf Pack.
