Talcott acquisition continues west side trend

By Frank Schier Editor & Publisher

Justin Fern’s Urban Equity Properties (UEP) purchased downtown Rockford’s iconic 13-story Talcott Building, 321 W. State St., March 31, 2014 for an undisclosed sum, reportedly in the area of $7 million.

UEP purchased the “skyscraper” from TRT Management, whose principal Dave Casazza, owned the building for 30 years. Casazza also owns Broadmoor Insurance Agency, located in the Talcott.

UEP now owns close to 600,000 square feet in Rockford’s downtown River District; and unlike other developers, UEP has boldly made several major stakes in the River District’s west side, totaling 300,000 square feet, with an equal amount on the east side.

“The purchase of this building reaches into the future of UEP’s commitment to downtown Rockford,” said Fern. “We see the River District as very viable and it’s value is increasing.

Our critical mass is expanding. Look at our efforts in the 300 and 400 block of East State Street’s north side, including our purchase of the Chase Building on the 400 block’s south side. We also have property on First Street just north of East State. North and south, east and west, these investments are feeding each other.

Everyone sees the increasing foot traffic and its all about critical mass, expanding out from our investments and adding to the success of the 500 block of East State Street.

“The Talcott will not be a changing development. It was bought as an investment. All the existing tenants will remain, and are secure in their leases. I have enjoyed meeting many of the lease holders, and I look forward to doing business with all of them. NIU Law is secure in their storefront, and resident’s lease on the 13th floor will continue.”

When asked about Amtrak’s uncertain status because of Gov. Rauner’s freeze on so many funds, Fern was still confident, stating, “The Rock River Towers was just sold to investors from the east coast for $8.2 million. An international firm is investing in the Ziock Building.

Look at those expenditures, and tell me that Rockford is not on the national map plus.

“We are excited to see the progress of the Ziock Building,” Fern said. “I’m really excited about, and committed to both the east side and the west side of the river; its all the same to me; neither side is lessor or greater; but each is unique. That is why UEP is strong on both sides of the Rock River with it’s investments.

“I hope Gov. Rauner sees the importance of rail from Rockford to Chicago. I don’t believe that if we weren’t to get the Amtrak station here that it would kill the great momentum in downtown Rockford. Although, I do believe it could slow us down. I hope Gov. Rauner’s commitment to an increase in the business community will not let that happen,” Fern

concluded.

As to the status and future of State of Illinois Historic Tax Credits which have enabled many of the development projects in the River District, they required completion by the end of 2016. That deadline has not been extended at this time, although Mayor Morrissey and others are lobbying for continuing the program.

For bad news, we have no immediate hope for development of the Rockford Watch Factory property; Chick Hotel, Elm and South Main streets; Rockford Office Supply, 119 S. Main St.; and the Murphy Family’s Rockford Space Freight Depot at Cedar and South Church streets. The controversial destruction of the Rockford School District 205’s old administration building/Rockford High School included the non-historic section of the Watch Factory, which involved eminent domain.

Frantz Community Investors of Cedar Rapids, Iowa was looking at all three properties, but pulled out because the legal process of dealing

with the eminent domain issue put in doubt if they could have their projects complete by the start of 2017 to use the crucial state historic tax credits.

“Unfortunately, with all the work and dead-

line required for the historic tax credits at this time, they thought they had to take a pass,” said Rockford City Administrator Jim Ryan.

“We have been working with the state, and it’s our top legislative priority to get that passed.

The sunset provision for the end of 2016 is the problem. We’d like to get that extended for as long as we can. That’s a matter of negotiation.

Four to five years would be good, and it has been very successful with developing downtown. So we are lobbying the state very heavily to get that extended.”

When asked if the city would approach Frantz Community Investors to come back for the projects they declined, Ryan said, “Absolutely! We think they would be a good development partner downtown.”

Putting aside the negative and the doubt on the Amtrak arrival, as Fern pointed out, downtown development is getting very significant. We’ve all heard about the success and significant financial commitments of the east side’s Rockford Brewery and Marina (with it’s very successful event space and Dinner on the Docks series). Add in the $15 million Downtown Sports Complex on the Rock River.

Besides the Talcott purchase, here’s a few other developments building enthusiasm on the west side of downtown.

As noted, the Rock River Towers, 913 N. Main St., was purchased by New Jersey’s Strategic Partners of North America for $8.2 million from River Tower Venture of Mukwonago, Wisconsin. In 1998, it was purchased for $2.5 million.

Rockford Trust Building, 202 W. State St., is being developed by Morgan Management, a Pittsfield, New York developer for a reported $12.5 million, with a purchase price of $1.7 million. Construction is slated to begin this summer.

Historic building links back to Lincoln

By Frank Schier Editor & Publisher

The 1968 Sinnissippi Saga: A History of Rockford and Winnebago County, Illinois

by C. Hal Nelson sets the scene of the construction of the Talcott Building at 321 W. State St., in what is now the West Downtown Rockford Historic District.

The Saga’s entry reads: “1926. Jefferson Street Bridge is completed. Lincoln Junior High School is opened, and construction begins on the 12-story Talcott Building in downtown Rockford.” The building is actually 13 stories.

Several sources state the Talcott replaced one of the oldest buildings downtown and it may have replaced a Masonic Temple.

The Talcott was designed by Howard Van Doren Shaw’s firm shortly after he died.

Shaw was on the planning committee for Chicago’s 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, primarily designed by Daniel Burnham and Frederick Law Olmsted.

Perhaps that is why one source also lists the architects as Daniel Burnham, Graham, Anderson, Probst & White, and its architectural style as Italianate, Classical Revival, Art Deco.

Jon W. Lundin in his 1996 work, Rockford: An Illustrated History notes the building was completed in “1927 and matched the height of the Ziock [Amerock] Building to the south and laid claim to being the tallest office building in the city.”

Wait Talcott, the building’s developer, also became the president of the Nelson Knitting Company and was elected a state senator.

Talcott was also an investor in J. H. Manny

& Co. a reaper manufacturer with his brother Sylvester along with Jess Blinn and Ralph Emerson. Emerson was the cousin of the famous author/poet and leader of the philosophic and literary Transcendentalists movement, Ralph Waldo Emerson.

In 1855, Cyrus McCormick (extended family eventually owned the Chicago Tribune and the Rockford Daily RegisterGazette, now the daily paper) filed the patent violation case McCormick v. Manny.

He did so because Manny’s reaper had beaten the McCormick reaper at the World’s Columbian Exposition.

Manny and Talcott hired Atty. Edwin M. Stanton, whom retained Illinois lawyer Abraham Lincoln as a co-counsel. Lincoln came to Rockford to argue the case, but the suit was eventually moved to Cincinnati, and Lincoln had little to do with the case proceeding to the Supreme Court.

Although Manny and Talcott won the case, Manny died soon after, reportedly from the stress of the ordeal.

Later developments include: nManny’s widow Mary Dorr Manny was one of the first women in the country to be involved in the management of a major company, and she married Robert Tinker who built Tinker’s cottage . nMcCormick’s reaper company evolved into International Harvester and Manny’s evolved into Talcott, Emerson & Company and eventually J.I. Case, which was just west of Tinker Cottage. nStanton became Lincoln’s Secretary of War, and figures prominently in assassination conspiracy theories. He took control of the government after the shooting. Stanton is accredited with the famous “Now he belongs to the ages” and “There lies the most perfect ruler of men the world has ever seen.”

Registration opens for Jumpstarting Great American Cleanup

By Grant McCarty

your garden bed

Local Foods and Small Farms Educator, University of Illinois Extension

O

ne of the many questions we get into the Extension office this time of year is how to prepare garden beds ready for planting.

While the answer depends on whether this is a new or old bed–which I’ll discuss later–initially both share the same recommendation: organic matter.

Organic matter is material added to the soil to assist soil properties but not necessarily address your plant’s nutrient needs.

Examples of organic matter include aged manures and composts that you find at home and garden centers.

Organic matter helps with nutrient/water retention, microbial diversity, soil structure, compaction management, and soil organic matter. By applying to the soil a month before planting, this can put your garden on the right step as during that month the organic matter will start to break down and be competed over by the soil microbial communities leading to soil enhancements.

If you are planting into an established bed, you want to consider adopting crop rotation. This is simply planting different

families in different locations each year.

For instance, if I planted tomatoes in one section of my garden in year one, I might plant lettuce there in year two. You never rotate among the same plant families. While you may not see any difference in actual fruit yield, the soil properties and microbial diversity will be enhanced.

New beds may require tilling as it can be necessary to allow you to work the soil easier. Walk behind tillers work well when it comes to establishing a garden. If you do till, be careful with the amount of force you push down on the tiller into the soil as this can disturb/break up lower soil depths and soil structure.

When you are in your garden with exposed soil after tilling, be mindful of where you are stepping as the pressure your feet place on the soil can lead to compaction and over time can be a problem. Sod cutters can be used before tilling with this equipment available for rental from home and garden centers. If not wanting to till, the double-digging method is another approach to setting up a garden bed.

Utilizing these recommendations for old or new beds will put you on the path toward healthy soil and plants.

The raging battle for 5 years after BP oil spill, US Illinois’ energy future proposes new safety rules

By Robert and Sonia Vogl President and Vice President, Illinois Renewable Energy Association

A

battle for the energy future of Illinois will intensify between now and when the state assembly adjourns by May 31. Multiple proposals address how the state will regulate carbon emissions. At stake is which interests benefit the most from implementing Federal standards requiring reducing carbon emissions from electricity production.

Exelon, which has threatened to close nuclear plants at Clinton, Quad Cities and Byron, is seeking a surcharge of about $2.00 per month from the average customer of ComEd and Ameren. The proposed charge could add about $300 million/year to the utilities’ revenue streams over the next five years.

The revenue would be available to all low-carbon energy sources which secure clean energy credits through a carbon auction to be held by the Illinois Power Agency. Critics claim the bill is structured to assure that nearly all of the clean energy credits would accrue to Exelon to support its nuclear power plants.

According to Greg Hink’s writing in Craine’s, an unusual letter signed by 13 of the state’s 18 leading House members asked Governor Rauner and legislative leaders for quick action on a bill expected to support the continued operation of Illinois’s nuclear plants.

Bob Flexon, president and CEO of Dynegy, which owns coal power plants in Illinois, pointed out in Crain’s magazine that Exelon cannot unilaterally shut down the nuclear plants. If the plants are needed for reliability they must remain open and the owners will be compensated under existing protocols.

Flexon wants Illinois to wait until the Federal Clean Power Plan is in place this summer which should consider a wider diversity of

energy sources including coal, renewables and energy efficiency.

Kevin Borgia of Wind on Wires points to new legislation supported by the Illinois Clean Jobs Coalition to fix and expand Illinois’ hobbled renewable energy portfolio standard. Both the utilities and alternative retail electric suppliers have paid fees into the Illinois Power Agency designated to fund renewable energy installations. The agency has accumulated $150 million but developers have been unable to secure long term power purchase agreements essential to use the funds for renewable energy projects.

Supporters fear that Govenor Rauner may sweep up the accumulated funds for other purposes.

Borgia indicates the best way to remove the renewable stalemate is to scrap the complicated system and move to a single system in which payments would go to the utilities to fund carbon reduction programs rather than accumulating in the Illinois Power Agency budget.

The agency would be empowered to allocate the funds to a variety of renewable energy projects including wind, solar, rooftop solar and solar gardens and energy-efficiency upgrades.

The bill suggested by the Illinois Clean Jobs Coalition calls for expanding the renewable energy standard from 25 percent by 2025 to 35 percent by 2030. It would increase energy efficiency upgrades to reduce the utility load by 20 percent by 2025. The legislation also allows state regulators to create a market based “Cap and Auction” system to allocate carbon emissions to fund various renewable energy options.

The coalition backing the bill includes energy companies, environmentalists, labor, faith and ratepayer groups, and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel.

Given the long life of energy installations, implications for the energy future for Illinois will be profound.

By Katie Valentine thinkprogress.org

On Monday, nearly five years after the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded and sent millions of barrels of oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico, the Obama administration announced new rules aimed at preventing a similar spill from happening again.

The proposed regulations on offshore drilling target the reliability of drilling equipment, especially the blowout preventer, a piece of equipment that seals and controls oil and gas wells and which failed during the Deepwater Horizon spill.

Among other new requirements for drilling technology, the Interior Department’s proposed regulations would require oil and gas drillers to perform tests and maintenance on their blowout preventers. They would also require drillers to undergo a yearly review by a third party to make sure that the blowout preventer equipment is functioning well, and would require a detailed inspection every five years.

“These proposed measures are designed to further build on critical lessons learned from the Deepwater Horizon tragedy and to ensure that offshore operations are safe,” Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell said in a statement. “This rule builds on enhanced industry standards for blowout preventers to comprehensively address well design, well control and overall drilling safety.”

The rules are now open for public comments, and the federal government is expected to issue a final rule later this year. That rule will go into effect three months later, but the Interior Department is giving oil and gas companies three to seven years to completely comply with the rule.

That three to seven year grace period is meant to give companies time to install any new technology they need to comply with the rules, but some environmental groups claim that the proposed rule is similar to the best practices already adopted by the oil and gas industry.

“Are we really strengthening safety or are we just making these [provisions] official?” Jackie Savitz, vice president of U.S. Oceans at Oceana, told the Wall Street Journal.

The oil industry, for its part, says its still reviewing the rules.

Still, others are glad that the Interior Department has proposed the long-awaited rules. The Interior Department said back in April 2011 that it was considering proposing new blowout preventer rules, and announced in May 2012 that it would be proposing new rules by September of that year. But the agency missed that deadline and another it set for itself

‘These proposed measures are designed to further build on critical lessons learned from the Deepwater Horizon tragedy and to ensure that offshore operations are safe.’

-Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell

to propose the rules.

Matt Lee-Ashley, director of public lands at the Center for American Progress, told ThinkProgress that he thinks the five-year delay in releasing the rules was due to the technological nature of the regulations.

“This is one of the most technically complex rulemakings the agency has ever done, so I think it took them some time to gather all the information about what went wrong with the blowout preventer on Deepwater Horizon, gather input from technical experts and independent reviews, and develop standards that reflect the best available technologies,” he said in an email.

Lee-Ashley also said that regulators like the Interior Department “face a major challenge” in keeping up with new technology that oil and gas drillers are using and in trying to account for the major risks that come along with drilling in the ocean.

“Deepwater Horizon was the biggest environmental disaster in American history, and the Department of the Interior has rightly implemented the most significant safety reforms ever undertaken,” he said, adding that the federal government “is making these safety improvements with no help from Congress and, all too often, resistance from an oil industry that wants to keep its costs low.”

Even with standards and rigorous oversight of drilling operations, Lee-Ashley emphasized that the risk of accidents and major spills like the Deepwater Horizon will always be present. The consequences of that fact are being underscored as the five-year anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon disaster approaches and studies continue to document the impacts of the spill.

One report released last month from the National Wildlife Federation found that 20 animal species were still being affected by the spill, and a study this month found that the dispersant used to break up oil that had spilled into the Gulf was more harmful to coral than the oil itself.

Record Store Day brings vinyl back into the limelight

By Nate Johnson Columnist

A

s vinyl records continue to recapture their share of the music market, so grows Record Store Day. Founded by a coalition of independently-owned record stores in 2007 to emphasize the need to support local record stores against the crush of online options, the event returns this Saturday, April 18, bigger than ever.

This year’s celebration offers the largest selections of RSD-exclusive releases ever, over 300 mostly limited edition records, CDs, and, yes, even cassettes from artists including the White Stripes, the Foo Fighters, U2, Phish and Willie Nelson, along with non-exclusive new releases coinciding with the holiday. Local vinylphiles will have no lack of places to queue up as three stalwarts of the vinyl scene and one (relative) newcomer will open early to give fans a crack at these treats.

While diehards will be in line even earlier, Culture Shock, Toad Hall, and Kate’s Pie Shop Café & Records will all be opening their doors at 8:00 a.m. and Beloit’s Tin Dog Records, in for their first RSD, will open shop at 11:00 a.m. All four stores will offer sales on non-RSD items and special giveaways, and all locations are sure to dig into their vaults for some prime gems.

Culture Shock alone will be unveiling thousands of records new to the store’s shelves, which, according to owner Lauren Davis,

“We’ve been hoarding for this special day. We believe in giving an incentive to buy local when buying vinyl!”

Besides the records themselves, each location will offer their own special events for the occasion. One of the biggest sideshows for the day will be a special early-season appearance by the Fork & Stein Urban Gourmet food truck, serving up their beer-infused treats including a “Pop Life” chocolate stout cake pop and a new slider created with a surprise from the beer cellar at Dogfish Head, who just happens to be the official beer of Record Store Day 2015. Dogfish Head will also be a focus in Beloit, as Tin Dog’s neighbor, Bushel and Peck, will be featuring the popular Delaware’s beers in honor of the day.

All three Rockford locations will be hosting live music throughout the day, starting with James Rawson entertaining the crowd at Culture Shock starting at 7:30 a.m. and continuing throughout the day. Another must-see is the collaboration between Toad Hall and Rockford Art Deli, as RAD will be doing live screen printing at Toad Hall during the event, offering up freshly inked t-shirts. Speaking of shirts, both Toad Hall and Tin Dog will be debuting new store shirts that day for their faithful.

Whether a vinyl aficionado or new to the format, Saturday promises to be something special for everyone who attends.

‘Orphan Black’ back on BBC

By Paula Hendrickson Television Columnist

M

aybe the reason so much time has passed between the season two finale of Orphan Black — which aired last June — and this week’s season two opener is because the lead actress, Tatiana Maslany needed a well-earned rest.

After all, she plays Sarah (who spends part of her time masquerading as Beth), Alison, Cosima, Helena, Rachel and any other random Leda Clones that happen to pop up in the show, including a trans-gender clone.

Maslany has played Alison pretending to be Sarah, Sarah posing as Alison; has staged a couple of big fights between Sarah and Helena; and a multi-clone dance party.

In fact, when she was nominated for a Golden Globe Award, it was for playing “Various Roles” instead of one character.

Maslany has appeared in nearly every scene of the series — often playing all of the characters in a scene. How can she not be exhausted? The good news for the actress is her workload might lighten up a bit this season.

Why? The final episode season two revealed that the Leda Sisters aren’t the only clones.

Mark (Ari Millen) — who seemed to be in love with a cult-leader’s abused daughter Gracie (Zoe De Grand Maison) — is a clone, too. While Sarah and most of her Project Leda sisters grew up ignorant of the fact they were part of a scientific experiment, Mark is part of Project Castor, a group of male clones who were raised fully aware that they are genetic duplicates.

With Millen also playing multiple roles, maybe Maslany will get a bit of breathing room. Unless, of course, their combined characters share a lot of screen time.

Either way, season three of Orphan Black promises to expand the clones’ world and heighten the danger they can’t seem to shake.

It’s been 10 months since season two ended, so if you need a refresher — or if you’re among the uninitiated who’s never watched the show — check out BBC America’s four-minute recap of the first two seasons here: bbcamerica.com/orphan-black/videos/orphan-black-a-fourminute-recap/.

The assassination of Abraham Lincoln, as told by the headlines of April 15, 1865 WAR DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON, April 15 – 1:30 A.M. Maj.-Gen. Dix: This evening at about 9:30 P.M., at Ford’s Theatre, the President, while sitting in his private box with Mrs. LINCOLN, Mrs. HARRIS, and Major RATHBURN, was shot by as assassin, who suddenly entered the box and approached behind the President.

The assassin then leaped upon the stage, brandishing a large dagger or knife, and made his escape in the rear of the theatre.

The pistoi ball entered the back of the President’s head and penetrated nearly through the head. The wound is mortal. The President has been insensible ever since it was inflicted, and is now dying.

About the same hour an assassin, whether the same or not, entered Mr. SEWARD’s apartments, and under the pretence of having a prescription, was shown to the Secretary’s sick chamber. The assassin immediately rushed to the bed, and inflicted two or three stabs on the throat and two on the face. It is hoped the wounds may not be mortal. My apprehension is that they will prove fatal.

From top-center, clockwise: the Chicago Tribune; the Baltimore Sun; The Ney York Times; The Evening Telegraph (Philadelphia); and the Cleveland Morning Dealer.

Above: Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton’s official dispatch to The New York Times, published in the April 15, 1865 edition.

The nurse alarmed Mr. FREDERICK SEWARD, who was in an adjoining room, and hastened to the door of his father’s room, when he met the assasin, who inflicted upon him one or more dangerous wounds. The recovery of FREDERICK SEWARD is doubtful.

It is not probable that the President will live throughout the night.

Gen. GRANT and wife were advertised to be at the theatre this evening, but he started to Burlington at 6 o’clock this evening.

At a Cabinet meeting at which Gen. GRANT was present, the subject of the state of the country and the prospect of a speedy peace was discussed. The President was very cheerful and hopeful, and spoke very kindly of Gen. LEE and others of the Confederacy, and of the establishment of government in Virginia.

All the members of the Cabinet except Mr. SEWARD, are now in attendance upon the President.

I have seen Mr. SEWARD, but he and FREDERICK were both unconscious.

EDWlN M. STANTON, Secretary of War.

Commentary Response

Open Government

‘It’s hard to argue with the truth’

Improved FOIA laws crucial

From Friends of Ziock (FOZ) n his response (Apr. 1 issue) to the FOZ update (Mar. 25 issue) City Administrator Jim Ryan commended FOZ and touted City efforts in support of historic preservation initiatives. To the casual reader, this sounds collaborative and positive.

Most surprising was the lack of specificity with respect to the deluge of facts (with names and dates) included in the FOZ update. It is hard to argue with the truth, which paints a less-than-idyllic picture of the working relationship between the administration and FOZ. FOZ does agree that Rockford is a leader in efforts to restore designated properties using federal and state Historic Tax Credits (HTCs). FOZ has always been clear that the City administration deserves credit for their contribution to passage of this enabling legislation, along with Landmarks Illinois and AIA (American Institute of Architects) Illinois. The drive towards restoration is fixed on the expiration date for the current state law, Dec. 31 2016.

Legislation, however, is not development.

The credit for Rockford leadership in the redevelopment of historic buildings, goes to the private sector comprised of local developers (with special credit to Urban Equity Properties with many downtown properties and the Koch family which redeveloped the Prairie Street Brewhouse) as well as out-ofstate developers and investors, including Gorman & Co. With a stroke of luck and hard work, other regional developers / investors will join Gorman in the next 21 months before the expiration of the State HTC. This work continues to be difficult, and not exclusively as a result of the expected challenges of historic preservation projects.

City administrators can be collaborators, creative problem solvers, marketers and partners – or not.

First, they must protect properties that qualify for HTCs. This is not a new problem here in Rockford. Historically, we have

taken down over 3 million square feet downtown in the past 60 years, with only seven private sector buildings (generating property tax revenue) erected during the same period.

The City under this administration has continued to acquire such properties, as well as others with buildings in various states of disrepair. When these structures deteriorate sufficiently, they are demolished. The Tapco Building fell to the wrecking ball several years ago; luckily, the Ziock Building did not suffer the same fate.

Another example of this trajectory for historic properties is the Old Freight Depot on Cedar Street. Interestingly, this building was selected during ‘charrettes’ with the public as the first choice location for the new train station.

The City acquired this building and several others under eminent domain, to assist with the redevelopment of the Ziock Building. This property was originally slated to provide parking for the nearby hotel and train depot. With the prospect of a large parking ramp on the former Tapco site next door to Ziock, a Gorman representative shared with FOZ members that parking on the Depot site was not needed.

Last fall, FOZ members were alerted to the “deconstruction” of the Depot, designed and built in 1902 by the architect and general contractor that did the Nelson Hotel on South Main. After a phone call to Springfield, the City was enjoined from further demolition.

FOZ has completed research on the property, submitted a Preliminary Evaluation and received the approval of the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency (IHPA) to submit an application for historic designation. With the clock ticking on the State tax credit, this is critical to assure the expedited redevelopment of this Rockford landmark.

We leave to the readers’ judgement the quality of the partnership between FOZ and the City administration.

First Amendment Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

President and CEO, Newspaper Association of America

P

resident Obama has routinely promised greater transparency within the federal government. Now, Congress is making strides towards achieving this critical goal.

The House of Representatives and Senate are currently considering nearly identical bills to strengthen the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), which provides the general public, including journalists, with access to federal government records.

This legislation has received broad support across media organizations, including the Sunshine in Government Initiative, a coalition of which the Newspaper Association of America is a member. And here’s why: Openness instead of secrecy would be the “default” key within the government.

The legislation would require agencies to release documents under a “presumption of openness,” reaffirming the principle that information should never be kept confidential to protect government interests at the expense of the public. Agencies would need to prove specific harm that could result from disclosures before withholding documents. While this policy has been in place since 2009, the legislation would ensure future administrations honor this objective for openness.

Citizens and journalists would receive requested information in a more timely fashion and would be updated on the status of their request or reason for denial. Federal agencies would be allowed to withhold information on policy deliberations for only 25 years – currently, there is no limit.

The legislation would require agencies to post frequently requested information online.

This will give citizens and journalists more timely access to key information and a deeper understanding of what the government is doing – or not doing.

The Freedom of Information Act remains a powerful, though currently inefficient, tool to obtain public information. Last year, several

key stories were brought to light as a result of reporters’ FOIA record requests.

The Associated Press was able to show that people accused of Nazi war crimes had continued receiving Social Security payments after leaving our country. In another instance, a reporter reviewing military ballistics tests found that the Marine Corps had issued armored vests that failed to protect against bullets – and 5,277 vests were quickly recalled, perhaps saving lives. Likewise, records obtained through FOIA revealed that some firefighter safety equipment failed to work properly when exposed to heat or moisture, rendering it ineffective in crisis situations.

Without these records and journalists’ diligent research, none of this would have been brought to public attention. Our armed forces and firefighters may have been directly harmed as a result.

The Freedom of Information Act was enacted in 1966. It remains critical for creating and preserving an open and accountable government. However, it must be updated to keep up with changing technology and a persistent mindset within federal agencies that information belongs to the government not the general public.

Congress came very close to passing FOIA reform legislation last year before the end of the 113th Congress. Now, members in both the Senate and House are working in a bi-partisan fashion to move these bills forward in the new Congress. The Senate Judiciary Committee unanimously approved its FOIA reform bill, S. 337, which is sponsored by Senators John Cornyn, Patrick Leahy, and Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley. The House bill (H.R. 653), which is sponsored

by Representatives Darrell Issa and Elijah Cummings, was reported out of committee last week. We applaud the bills’ sponsors and the congressional leadership for turning their attention to this good government legislation.

We hope that this momentum bodes well for bipartisan, bicameral action early in the new Congress.

Guest Column

Meet John Doe

Thank you to Tim Hanson for Rauner’s budget cuts: Not excellent customer service all about dollars and ‘sense’

By Paul Gorski Columnist

T

hank you to Tim Hanson, Director of Rockford’s Public Works Department, for taking time on a Sunday to answer resident questions regarding roadwork projects.

I recently met with a group of city and county residents who had questions on a variety of topics: special garbage pickup programs, what to do about neighbors with abandoned cars in their yards, and when are “they” going to fix 20th St. The answers vary depending where you live.

The tough topic was the 20th St. question.

The residents asked if I knew about any plans to resurface 20th St. from Blackhawk Road to Sandy Hollow. I serve as a Cherry Valley Township Trustee, and I was not aware of any specific roadwork in this area. I did know part of that road was the responsibility of Cherry Valley Township and part the City of Rockford, and the street borders Cherry Valley and Rockford Township.

I promised to do my homework on the 20th St. question. So, early Sunday morning I fired off an email to Tim Hanson of Rockford and Ken Mattson, Cherry Valley Township Highway Commissioner, copying Dan Conness, Rockford Township Highway Commissioner; and Joe Vanderwerff, Winnebago County Engineer.

About an hour later, I get a reply from Hanson. Not just “I’ll get back to you Monday” but a detailed answer to my detailed questions. Later in the day I replied, he replied, and this went on into the late afternoon. He did not have to do that. It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon, but he took the time to answer my questions in detail.

It could have waited until Monday.

I did not like all the answers he gave me.

I understood his reasoning though, and

the financial constraints governments have when it comes to roadwork. Resurfacing roads is expensive. I learned years ago we have more freeze-thaw cycles locally than most other areas in country and that freezing and thawing takes a toll on local roads.

Local residents complain about Rockford roads and for good reason sometimes.

The city spends millions on roadwork each year, and could spend more, but you would pay more in taxes. Officials like Tim Hanson are doing their best to explain the planned projects and how they are prioritized. Visit rockfordil.gov/ public-works/major-projects.aspx for a list of major road projects and visit rockfordil. gov/public-works/engineering-cip.aspx to download a list of all Capital Improvement Projects (CIP).

Time permitting, I might interview Hanson and give him an opportunity to explain the CIP development and prioritization process in detail. In the meantime, thanks to Tim Hanson for taking time on a sunny Sunday afternoon to answer questions I collected from local residents.

I would be remiss if I did not also acknowledge Joe Vanderwerff and Wayne Vlk from the county highway department.

I copied Vanderwerff on my email to Hanson as a courtesy. Vanderwerff is on vacation now but he forwarded the email to Vlk and Vlk confirmed receipt. Again, good customer service.

I may be critical of elected officials at times, but these staff members and officials went out of their way to respond to resident question on a weekend or while on vacation. Thanks again.

Paul Gorski (paul@paulgorski.com) is a Cherry Valley Township resident who also authors the Tech-Friendly column seen in this newspaper.

Presented Without Comment ‘I want to make sure we have elected people constantly looking at helping the African-American community. With this state and all of its resources, we could sponsor a whole new class of potential innovators like George Washington Carver and eventually have a class of AfricanAmerican billionaires. That would really adjust income differentials and make the diversity and outcome of the state much better so that the black community is not the one we drive faster through.’

-Sen. Mark Kirk (R)

uring his visits around the state both on the campaign trail and after he was elected Governor Rauner has said that he wants to help the state’s most vulnerable citizens, however, the current proposed budget could force some of those residents into nursing homes and institutions which will cost the State of Illinois even more money. This is simply not a cost savings.

Disability Rights advocates in Illinois have been working together since the introduction of this proposed budget to understand the potential impact and educate our legislators and Governor on how essential the services are to individuals with disabilities.

A $77 million cut to the Home Services program is part of Governor Rauner’s proposal to slash $1.2 billion from the Department of Human Services.

The Home Services Program assists people, up to age 60, with physical disabilities by providing personal assistants services, home modifications, adaptive equipment, and therapy which allows them to stay in their homes, in the community or transition back into the community from nursing homes. The individuals that lose their services will likely end up living in facilities where they are not able to make their own decisions and will not be contributing members of their communities which will cost the State of Illinois more in the long run.

With what the Governor is proposing, these essential services will no longer be an option. Many of the individuals served under this program will have to manage on their own or wait until their disability progresses to the point where they are again eligible for services. To receive services from the Home Services Program an individual must be evaluated with an assessment tool called the Determination of Need (DON).

The DON assessment asks several questions, looking at an individual’s impairments and their unmet needs. The more impairments and unmet needs an individual has, the higher that person’s score is. A 29 is the lowest qualifier for service and Governor Rauner wants to change that number to 37.

Many individuals’ already receiving services have expressed great concern over the potential loss of their essential care. Richard Ross, an individual with a disability served through the Community Reintegration program and who most recently scored a 32 on his last

assessment shared, “I know that I would end up back at the nursing home without home services which would then kill me. I cannot and will not ever return to the nursing home.”

Currently, there are 30,000 people being assisted in the Home Services Program. If the eligibility requirements for the Home Services Program are changed as currently being proposed, 10,000 people will see their services reduced or eliminated, putting them in danger of nursing home placement which cost the State of Illinois on average $ 70,000 dollars a year per person.

If these individuals are able to live in their community and receive services through the Home Services Program, the average cost per person is $38,000 dollars which is a $32,000 savings per person for the State of Illinois when compared to the average cost of a nursing home.

Garry Guldin, who is an individual receiving services through the Home Services Program recently shared with the advocate working with him, “Without my personal assistant’s help I could not do the activities I do today. The relationship I have with my daughter is very important to me and I would love to give her a good influence. I don’t believe this would be possible living in a nursing home.”

As we approach the 25th Anniversary of the American’s with Disabilities Act on July, 26th, 2015, we are asking Governor Rauner, our legislators, and the people of the State of Illinois, to do the right thing and maintain the essential services provided to individuals with disabilities through the Home Services Program. People with disabilities are one of the largest and fastest growing minority groups and the ONLY minority group that anyone can join at any time. While these cuts may not impact your life or someone you know, that can change in the future.

The State of Illinois must balance the budget, but making cuts that impact the quality of life of the people of Illinois just doesn’t save money or make sense RAMP empowers individuals with disabilities through services and advocacy to live an independent life. We accomplish this by partnering with them to make changes in their own lives, seek peer support and remove barriers. RAMP advocates for the implementation of current laws, promotion of needed legislation and improvement of existing systems for individuals with disabilities while working to diminish negative attitudes that threaten to impede equal access.

Go easy into this and all will turn out well Capricorn.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) — Unexpected news from a long-distance source will leave you feeling a bit on edge early on this week. Let this sit until you have all of the information available to you, then you will know exactly how to handle this delicate information. Not everything is on the table quite yet, mid-May will provide you with a conclusion to this long-standing problem. Humor is the best medicine Aquarius.

Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20) —A friend or family member may be in some emotional trouble that you have not been able to see at this time. Ask if there is anything you can do to help them out. Cleaning, painting or even just taking the garbage out may be all they need to feel as though they are not alone.You may also need to delicately inquire about their health and welfare. Investing some time and energy into this individual will help you learn more about yourself in the end Pisces.

Mr. Green Car

Review: Ford’s EcoBoost engine

By Allen Penticoff Columnist

M

y review of the Ford F-150 truck platform boasted much about the benefit in fuel economy of selecting the 2.7 liter “EcoBoost” engine (which may actually have an upcharge cost on some models/trim levels). I also did not mention that the F-150 with EcoBoost also uses “start-stop” technology to further enhance fuel economy.

Ford Motor Company has been using this “EcoBoost” tag for several years to describe their line of small turbocharged engines that eek out a lot of power for the amount of displacement. Here I’ll describe some of the technology that has evolved to make this happen.

Ford is not alone in using turbocharging to have their cake and eat it too. Customers are looking for fuel economy and performance – and turbocharging is the way to get both.

Turbochargers are basically vacuum cleaners on steroids. Using the waste energy of the exhaust system, a compressor sucks in fresh air, compresses it greatly and sends it to the intake system to be burned to gain power.

The main benefit is that when the engine is not under heavy power usage, the benefits of small displacement create greater fuel economy. But when you really put your foot down and need the power, the turbocharger becomes effective and packs more fuel and air into the cylinders, greatly increasing the power.

At the Chicago Auto Show Ford had a new four-cylinder 2.3 liter EcoBoost Mustang engine on display. In the past, a 2.3 liter engine may have produced something like 140 horsepower give or take a bit. But this EcoBoost Mustang engine puts out a very impressive 310 horsepower and an equally impressive 320 foot-pounds of torque. This is big V-8 kind of power and torque in a package that is half

the weight and size. Less weight always is an engineering goal to increase efficiency and performance.

Such is why the new F-150 lost 700 pounds of weight and gets big motor performance out of using a 2.7 liter engine.

Engineers have had decades of experience fine-tuning the internal combustion engine.

Now we have racing technologies in everyday street cars. Dual overhead camshafts with chain drive and variable rate valve timing, high-energy individual coils for each spark plug, all computer controlled for maximum

efficiency or power.

The twin-scroll turbocharger, along with the lightweight composite intake ducting are designed for smooth easy breathing. A high-pressure fuel pump atomizes the fuel spraying out of the injectors, again creating all the more efficiency and power.

All the parts moving around in an engine create some friction, it takes power to overcome this friction, and in fact much of the fuel consumed is just in making the engine operate, much less getting you to where you are going. To this end, reduced friction gives you

more power and efficiency. Ford’s EcoBoost engine uses high strength pistons with low friction skirts. Higher efficiency water pumps reduce friction as well.

While researching the EcoBoost technology I came upon some interesting problems being reported. Apparently the 3.5 liter V-6 EcoBoost engine in model years 2011- 2013 is prone to going into “limp mode” when the engine computer senses there is too much humidity and starts to shut down affected cylinders to protect the catalytic converter.

The source of this excess humidity is that the intercooler (an air radiator that cools the air coming from the turbocharger before it enters the engine) is cooling too much and under certain conditions is causing this extreme humidity.

Unfortunately, this seems to happen at the worst time, like while passing, or on a freeway on ramp. The engine will shake, vibrate and lose most of its power when it goes into “limp mode.” The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) investigated, and concurred with Ford Motor Company that a deflector added to the intake system prevents the problem in rainy and high humidity conditions. No recall was issued, however, if you own one of these vehicles you should check with your Ford dealer to determine if you need updated hardware.

While a class action lawsuit had been filed against Ford in June 2014 for the affected 3.5 EcoBoost owners – and claimed other EcoBoost owners were affected – an Internet search was not turning up much in the way of recent complaints or actions by Ford to remedy these complaints.

I believe this problem has been resolved.

The EcoBoost concept is what we need. Better fuel efficiency while maintaining the performance we need for safe driving. We’ll keep an eye on this development.

Local Music Scene

Rockford’s Reina draws influence from classic bands

By Emily Sipiora Contributor

Rockford native Joseph Reina is behind Rockford’s older popular indie bands The Braves, a part of Rockford rock lore in the same vein of La Historia and Bloom. Earlier this year, his new band, Paper Waves, released their album Give Me Moonlight on Bandcamp and CD. Reina has been a part of Rockford for over three decades, seeing its music scene shift and change from one popular genre to another.

Multiple other bands and artists influenced Reina’s work. “My earliest musical memories distinctly revolve around a bunch of 45’s my mom gave me,” Reina said, “specifically ‘Coming Up’ by Paul McCartney and ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ by Simon & Garfunkel. Regardless of anything that came after, you can pretty much find traces of all of those still in anything I do.”

“I started out playing drums because nobody else wanted to, but then quickly realized I was too lazy to carry them around,” Reina stated. “The Braves started with an ill advised jam session between myself, Shawn Ross (Furlight) and Jesse Carmona (drummer, plus the drummer of La Historia) in an old movie theater’s projection booth.

As expected, it didn’t go anywhere, but we rearranged some things and tried again a few months later with Kevin Schwitters (La Historia) playing guitar so I could only have to worry about singing, and carried on from there.”

The Braves and Paper Waves are different bands with individual, distinct sounds, but they still share a sentimental pop influence.

“Stylistically, I think the major difference is simply the fact that we’ve all been doing this long enough to where we can actually make choices and focus in.

“Paper Waves came about very casually, with Marcus and I. Then Jesse and Spencer’s contributions took the songs in directions I would’ve never guessed, and it’s been a complete joy ever since. Adding Chris Johnson on guitar for our live shows has been the icing on that cake. Stylistically speaking, I was really into an AM radio, light rock with guitar solos, kind of thing when writing most of these songs, so I guess that’s in there somewhere.”

Other classic Rockford bands have been a significant part of Reina’s musical output.

“Our extended musical family after The Braves (La Historia/Furlight) will always be the dudes I follow most closely, and it’s

a joy to be able to see such good music in such a goofy town. I’m a huge fan of Pink Beam,” Reina said, and then added, “and Cheap Trick.”

When asked if he would do anything different given the chance, Reina initially

says no. “Maybe I would have chosen a better name so you could actually have found us on the internet.” Paper Waves’ Give Me Moonlight is available on CD at Culture Shock and digitally at paperwavesband. bandcamp.com.

Make new friends on your travels

Poet Schampier at Mendelssohn Market

By Lynn and Rob Belles

Independent Vacation Specialists

Y

ou will make friends with passengers, cruise line employees and people in exotic countries. Meeting people on the ship who love to cruise is easy, just eat in the dining room or pick a favorite bar. Recently we met The Merry Widows in the piano bar, two fun loving ladies from England who were, in their words, “spending their husbands’ pensions.” Tip: classify them as cruise friends on Facebook so you can message them next time you cruise.

We also make friends with cruise line employees. We keep in contact with everyone from shopkeepers to dancers and photographers to entertainers. Recently we started following The Designated Divers from LA online. A group of youngsters whom you would think were our age by the music they can play. Too much fun.

Tip: this is the only way to keep track of the entertainers you like because they don’t publish who is where.

Some of the wildest friendships are the locals we meet in the places we visit. On one trip we paid a cab driver for an entire day of sightseeing. We noticed a large cross on a hill near the port. It had not even appeared in our diligent blueprint research. At the end of a seven hour day with the driver, returning to the port, we saw the cross again and asked him about it. He looked at his watch, asked if we wanted to see it, and without waiting for an answer made a hard right turn up a dirt road towards the cross.

He folded his sun visor down to proudly show us a Polaroid of his family in front of it. We had to be the only tourists that got into this beautiful building that day. The Third Millennium Cross Monument had been the only cross in the world erected in in honor of the year 2000 there in Coquimbo, Chile. It was a symbol of great cultural pride. Tip: when you travel always ask about the architecture, you won’t regret it.

As we were leaving, our new friend called our family together in front of the cross for a Polaroid that he arranged and paid for as his thank you for the enjoyable day we had. Travel Like an Architect, take a chance now and then and you will make many friends around the globe.

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.

Staff Report Mendelssohn Performing Arts Center will be hosting an Indoor Market Sunday from noon to 4 p.m.

The market will be held at the Emerson Building, 420 N. Main St., in Rockford and is free to the public.

Poet and artist Ruth Schampier will be at the event sharing her poetry.

Schampier is the former director of advertising for the Washington Tourism Magazine in Seattle, Washington.

Upon her return to her home town of Rockford, she has dedicated her life during the past several years to her artwork which includes collecting leaves of the most vibrant colors found across the United States and Mexico.

Japanese Maples are her most cherished leaves. “I was taken aback to notice the multicolored leaves that had fallen in the yard of one of my friends,” she recalls.

“The spectacular beauties took my breath away as I began to pick them up, none the same, and seven to eight different colors in

each leaf.”

The market will feature artwork, an author’s book signing, painters as well as various vendors.

There will also be live entertainment throughout the day.

Those wishing to exhibit at the market should contact pickleme@boute.com.

Rachel Barton Pine: violinist, classical icon and rock goddess

By Rob Tomaro Arts Correspondent and Music Director of the Rock River Philharmonic Orchestra

O

n April 25 I will conduct the Dvorak Violin concerto in Beloit with Rachel Barton Pine. She is one of the most sought after soloists in the world and we are lucky to have her. But, here’s my favorite thing about her: she is a quintessentially American artist.

There are many wonderful American violinists who perform the concerto repertoire, so what do I mean? It is this: in classical music, an artist can become so immersed in the European-ness of its traditions that he/she tends to exist in a bubble, and removed from contemporary culture. This is understandable and even necessary in order to achieve the laser focus that the role demands; the perpetuation of a cherished art form rooted in the past, which is transplanted into the present. But Rachel has something that makes her unique, eminently appealing and, yes, a really American artist: she is also a rock star.

The classical world has been scratching its head trying to figure out how to make itself “relevant” (meaning cool) to today’s pop drenched audience. Every gimmick has been tried, but Rachel’s approach is seamless and authentic. In addition to being one of the best interpreters of Mozart, Mendelssohn, Brahms and Beethoven, she also shreds heavy metal on her six-string Viper Electric Violin, assaying the canon of Slayer, Metallica and Ozzy Osborne. It’s not a stunt. It is part of who she is and she embraces all the music she plays from the same big, openhearted place. In a recent interview, she said that playing rock has helped her ‘open up’ emotionally to audiences, which is really cool. It also infuses her classical playing with a super charged energy that is undeniable in its audience appeal.

She is credited as being the first violinist to record “shredding metal” (ask your kid) on the acoustic violin, winning stellar reviews for her “Earthen Grave” heavy metal CD, which she recorded with rock heavyweights Ron Holzer, Tony Spillman,

and vocalist Mark Weiner. Just recently, she released the complete Mozart Violin concertos with Sir Neville Mariner and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields.

Talk about playing both sides of the street.

We live in a time when this is possible. She is a product of today’s hybrid, all-inclusive rainbow quilt society and it’s hard to imagine her dual focus would have been accepted even twenty years ago, when the classical world was even more hidebound and attached to its European roots. Now don’t get me wrong. I love the traditions. I love performing in white tie and tails. It makes me feel connected to the giants of the podium going all the way back to Wagner. But, keep in mind the struggles that emerging artists endured in the past. In fact, it wasn’t until 1958 that a major American orchestra appointed an American born conductor to become its Music Director. That was another groundbreaking innovator, Leonard Bernstein.

I’ve been trying to come up with an image that captures her sure-footed sensibility in both worlds, street credibility brushing up against the laurels from the Ivory tower of classical ‘respectability’. It might be this: check out her photo on the cover of her rock album “Storming the Citadel”.

What other violinist can you name who has AC/DC and Metallica patches sown onto the cover of the violin case that holds her priceless 1742 (ex-Soldat) Guarneri.

Yeah, that’s who she is.

So join us on April 25, when Rachel rocks the Dvorak. I just finished rehearsing with her. We realized we share a passion for Ozzy. She’s gonna bring her electric violin to the concert and I will bring my electric guitar. Could be a Crazy Train encore in the making.

Rachel Barton Pine will perform the Dvorak Violin concerto at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday night, April 25 with the Rock River Philharmonic, conducted by Music Director Rob Tomaro, at the People’s Church on Grand Street in Beloit, Wisconsin. They will also perform the Beethoven Symphony No. 5 in C minor and the Overture to Don Giovanni by Mozart.

Rockford Rocked Interviews

Dee Web: short in stature, full-scale guitarist

By Todd Houston Exclusive to TRRT

R

RI: At what age did you decided that you wanted to guitar?

Dee Web: I was 10 when I asked my parents for a guitar.

I got an acoustic for Christmas and started taking lessons from Lance Tuula shortly after.

Were your parents supportive?

My parents were and are very supportive. They drove me every week to guitar lessons, always encouraged me to practice and of course they made sure I listened to all the good rock music growing up. My dad would quiz me in the car, asking song name and artist when a song would come on the radio haha. They are also very supportive of the bands I’ve been in. They come to gigs, wear band gear, and have a good time.

You’re a little bit shorter than average; did that prove to be a problem when picking out a guitar?

Not at all! I play a full scale length guitar, despite how funny I look holding it (laughs).

You’re a female in a band with a bunch of sweaty, smelly rocker guys. How does that work out for you?

I love it! The men in Amperage are the most down to earth guys I’ve met. They might look scary and I know they can hold their own if need be but they are a great group of guys.

Tell us a little bit about Amperage.

Amperage is a Rockford based cover band. They have been around for about 12 years – known as Heavyflow for a while. The members include Mike Purl (vocals), Eric Drager (guitar), Larry Williams (bass), Steve Stutsman (drums), and myself on guitar. We do a wide variety of covers from the 80’s, 90’s, and today’s rock hits including songs by AC/DC, STP, Jet, Billy Idol, Seether, and much more. Amperage normally plays out 3 to 5 times a month around the area, so plenty of chances for everyone to come out and have some fun!

What’s in your iPod or CD player? In other words, what are you currently grooving to?

I listen to a little bit of everything really. But lately I’ve been in a Megadeth and Metallica phase although I always have Journey ready to go as well.

I understand that you give guitar lessons – what is the

hardest and the most rewarding thing about giving lessons to younger students or any student for that matter?

I sure do. My business is called Dee String Guitar Lessons. One of the hardest things with teaching is keeping kids motivated to practice. We all want that instant gratification but learning an instrument just doesn’t work that way.

One of the most rewarding things that comes from teaching is seeing how proud my students are of themselves when they accomplish a song or scale or anything they have been struggling with. I also love seeing my students use what they have learned. For example, one of my 10 year old students sang and played a country song at her school talent show, all by herself!

It was too cool!

It’s that time once again: I say a word or phrase and you say whatever pops into the ol’ bean! Ready? Ghost Adventurers (TV show).

Orb hunting with my family. Love that kind of stuff and getting creeped out.

Paul Reed Smith Guitars.

Love of my life! I have a PRS; it’s my main guitar. They feel and sound amazing.

Taylor Swift.

Whiney, not real music. Needs to quit? (laughs)\ Harley Davidson.

Yes, please! Gotta love that rumble.

Guys that hoot, holler and cat call while you’re onstage performing They are probably hollering at our bassist Larry.

Favorite Saturday night album?

Whitesnake, “Slide It In,” “Slip of the Tongue,” any Whitesnake albums really. Or Def Leppard, “Hysteria” or “Pyromania.”

Favorite Sunday morning album?

Any Journey album, but usually “Escape” or “Infinity.”

Any new projects in the works that we should know about?

Amperage is my new project, just joined up with them a couple months ago. However, I was a member of Shuvlhed for a couple years and we are doing a show in Kirkland for the Fourth of July celebration. Shuvlhed headlines on the July 2 and Amperage will be performing the same festival on the Fourth.

Downtown

Rockford Art Deli providing homegrown artists a place to flourish

By Grace Stiles Contributor

The Rockford Art Deli — sat right on the main drag at 402 E. State St. — may not be what people first imagine a T-shirt shop to look like.

With exposed pipework, rafters and heavy wood paneled walls, the interior looks more like a trendy warehouse than a clothing store.

While only half of the sizable floor plan is devoted to Rockford-themed paraphernalia and artist-in-residence bric-a-brac, the other is home to a large shirt press where one of the screen-printers moves in a fluid circle treating cloth and pressing images onto the custom orders.

There are arcade games in the back and even a small stage for bands to set up. The Rockford Art Deli (or R.A.D.) is a shop that wears many hats and its co-owner and founder, Jarrod Hennis, is always eager to try on more.

Jarrod himself started off taking the unbeaten path when he decided he wanted to make extreme sports videos right out of college. He would go out to wake-boarding competitions and record the action.

What caught his eye more than the sports, though, were the custom T-shirts all the fans were wearing for the event. Jarrod realized he would rather be the one making those shirts, so he got a business loan, bought up the equipment for a small screen printing operation and taught himself the trade from books and YouTube tutorials.

Thus began the Pirate Ninja Printing Shop, which today is only part of what R.A.D. has to offer. Though the custom printing shop has been in business for 11 years, Jarrod and co-owner Britney Lindgren opened the R.A.D. storefront three years ago, and have been growing the business ever since.

Nowadays, the home-grown T-shirt store hosts a buffet of different attractions and products: from an all-ages music hall and burgeoning arcade, to an art gallery displaying the best of Rockford’s up and coming talent.

The Pirate Ninja Printing Shop also offers ‘Live Printing,’ a fun crowd-gathering activity in which the Printing Shop moves its large T-shirt press and sets up at planned events; anything from weddings to birthday parties, even corporate team-building retreats.

It allows guests to see up close the process behind printing a shirt, giving them a chance to interact with the screen-printers at work. All of the printing materials used by the Printing Shop are manufactured in the US, and several of their non-clothing merchandise is sourced from artists on Etsy.

Yet despite these ‘outside’ influences, this small town boutique still manages to feel solidly local.

Possibly this feeling comes from the fact that for Jarrod and Britney, artists are the backbone of the whole enterprise.

Britney Lindgren and Jarrod Hennis of Rockford Art Deli.

By creating a network of artists all helping one another and contributing to each other’s work, they have brought a real sense of community and connectivity that is obvious the moment you walk into the shop.

“We have a pretty huge passion for drawing attention to our fabulous local artists, as they deserve recognition for their talents,” Jarrod says.

Their gallery wall allows for the artists to gather interest from the crowds coming into the shop as well as opportunities to sell their work. Every two months R.A.D. puts on an art show, always mixing it up with new themes and mediums, as well as solo artists and group shows — this month their featured artist is a portraitist from Aurora named Chris Evans (featured on the April 8 TRRT cover) so be sure to swing by and check out his work.

A more recent addition to the shop is their consignment wall, where other artists not involved in specific shows can share their wares and gain some notoriety. The R.A.D. is also well known for their Artist Series T-shirts, where

every shirt sold gives $5 back to the artist who designed it.

Says Jarrod, “It’s always a goal of ours to find new ways to help make the artists money. This feeds their creative spirit and affords them the time to keep making.”

It’s no surprise with this level of dedication that Jarrod and Britney are also artists themselves.

Both have appeared in several Rockford area art shows, and Jarrod, as part of a Printing Posse called ‘Fatherless’, has a show coming up in June at the Rockford Art Museum.

He also works with the Public Art Committee to find more space in the city to display artwork outdoors and around town, helping to create a more beautiful environment and adding a cultural stamp that is entirely “Rockford.”

In many ways, Rockford is what it’s all about for Jarrod Hennis and Britney Lindgren. “[W]e want to provide Rockford with a smile,” Jarrod says. “If we can make people laugh, think, get involved, we’ve already won. We also hope...that we can bring new crowds of people to experience all that downtown has to offer.”

In this, they have succeeded, and continue to succeed with every new attraction and interesting facet they add to their smorgasbord of a store.

Whether championing local artists or creating a safe, fun environment for people of all ages to hear music, play games, see fantastic artwork and — of course — buy T-shirts, Rockford Art Deli and the Pirate Ninja Printing Shop are there to help bring Rockford into a more open-minded, better dressed stage of its life.

“There are so many people that like to complain about Rockford,” says Jarrod, “and we’re about making it a little happier, one shirt at a time.”

Building, 304 N. Main St.. The 50,000 square-foot office building was purchased

by Kevin Holdmann’s expanding Trans Atlantic Connection, currently at 109 Main St. To see more about this vibrant Rockford company visit tacrockford.com.

Changing to other familiar hands is the Morrissey Building, 127 N. Wyman St. Joseph James Partners, 303 N. Main St., was listed as Agent in November of 2014 with the State of Illinois for North Wyman Pioneer Building , LLC. The new owners, reportedly a Saudi firm, supposedly paid $750,000 cash, and the building will be managed by SupplyCore.

SupplyCore/Joseph James Partners/ Peter Provenzano’s potential development of the Trek Building at Mulberry and North Main streets is uncertain. Ryan said the status of the 60-day deadline with the City of Rockford is ongoing, saying, “We just met with them today [April 14], and we hope to have a development agreement for the [Rockford] City Council meeting on the 27th of this month.”

Other city development agreements with private developers downtown included negotiations with Wisconsin’s Gorman& Company, Inc., on the Ziock/Amerock Building at 416 S. Main Street.

Ryan said, “We need to work with them on the final project financing. We are looking at Section 108 financing, a HUD backed loan program, and we are looking at that for Cliffbreakers as well.

We are farther along with Cliffbreakers.

We have been working with them for the last year on that project.”

Chicago’s Aries Capital Management is the principal in Cliffbreakers Riverside Resort at 700 West Riverside Blvd.. They are seeking several million dollars to rehabilitate the hotel facilities, and they have already made significant investments, resulting in notable improvements to the restaurant facilities.

Other crucial investment opportunities on the River District’s west side that really need attention are the old Rockford Magazine Building at West State and Main street and the Elk”s Club at West Jefferson and North Main Street.

ICEHOGS From Page 46

A scoreless first period saw Drew MacIntyre stopping all 10 first period IceHogs shots and Antti Raanta blocking away four Charlotte attempts.

The Checkers had better quality chances in the second with Raanta making some key saves, including a breakaway glove save, but Rockford was the only team to tally a goal. On their third power play attempt of the game it was none other than Abbott getting the goal for Rockford.

A perfect no-look pass from Ryan Hartman set up Abbott on the back door for an easy tap-in and the 1-0 lead.

Rockford’s lead would stand until the final 33 seconds of the game when Mark McNeill dropped the puck into an empty net, assisted unselfishly by Hartman, to give Rockford the 2-0 victory.

Raanta was the first star of the game after stopping all 25 shots he faced. MacIntyre was second star having stopped 33 of 34.

The following afternoon both teams met for the second straight day with a matinee 1 p.m. game. In a surprise move, IceHogs head coach Ted Dent held out quite a few starters to rest for the players. Notable absences were Abbott, Peter Regin, Kyle Cumiskey and Ville Pokka.

With a chance to overtake the Griffins and take control of the Midwest Division, one would have thought Dent would keep his key players active, especially considering the chemistry between Regin and Abbott as of late.

Rockford jumped out to the quick 1-0 lead with Karo getting the first tally. The goal, 1:48 into the first period and his second in as many appearances, was assisted by newcomer Calle Dahlstrom and Brandon Mashinter.

That goal was followed up 5:30 later by Phillip Danault to give Rockford a 2-0 lead on four shots.

But as fast as Rockford took a 2-0 lead the Checkers took it away even faster. Patrick Brown and Justin Shugg scored 1:33 seconds apart to even the score up at 2-2.

After a fast-paced, high-scoring first period the second period was marred with penalties and zero goals. Despite three power play opportunities the IceHogs could not solve goalie Rasmus Tirronen.

The Checkers were also held scoreless on their only attempt as both teams headed off to the locker room still tied at 2-2.

The Checkers doubled up Rockford in the shots column in the middle frame, 14-7, despite the fact they were shorthanded three times.

With the third period tied 2-2 the Checkers took advantage of a Dane Walters tripping penalty to convert on the power play and take their first lead of the series, 3-2.

It appeared the IceHogs were headed for a loss but a late penalty shot awarded to Mashinter gave Rockford some hope. As Mashinter was alone on his way in for a 1-on-1, he was pulled down, toppled into the net and awarded a penalty shot.

Mashinter grabbed the puck at center ice, skated in slowly and fired a puck five-hole. At first it appeared the puck was stopped, but as goaltender Tirronen slid backwards the puck came out from under his pads and across the line tying the game at 3-3.

It looked as though there was no chance Rockford would give up a fourth goal after coming back and outplaying Charlotte in the third. Then, it happened. Brock McGinn fired home his 14th goal of the season with 3:39 left in the game to give Charlotte a 4-3 lead.

A late Checkers penalty with 1:30 remaining gave Rockford some hope. The ‘Hogs pulled Michael Leighton for the extra attacker and fired shot after shot at the Tirronen, but the rookie, getting his first professional start, stopped every attempt.

Another penalty against the Checkers with three seconds remaining gave Rockford a final shimmer of hope but Rockford could not convert and dropped to Charlotte 4-3.

The regular season wraps up this week with Rockford playing three straight home games. The first of the three games is a third straight game against the Charlotte Checkers tonight followed by a meeting against the Chicago Wolves on Friday and the Toronto Marlies for the regular season finale on Saturday.

With the last week of the regular season, Rockford will need a little help to win the Division.

If the IceHogs can win their final three games, and Grand Rapids finishes with at least one loss, the Midwest Division title will go to Rockford, as well as a top three seed.

If the IceHogs win out, and both San Antonio and Utica each lose two of their remaining games, Rockford will win the Western Conference title, and will have home ice advantage throughout the Western Conference playoffs.

With the playoffs looming it’s an exciting time to be an IceHogs fan, that’s for sure!

Tales from the Trough

‘Hogs streak snapped at 5 Conference still up for grabs

By Todd Reicher Exclusive to TRRT

Despite seeing their winning streak halted the Rockford IceHogs turned up the heat on the Western Conference this past week as they continued to rack up wins.

Rockford closed the gap on the Western Conference title to one point as they battle the Grand Rapids Griffins for the Midwest Division crown.

The IceHogs are guaranteed home ice advantage for the first round and will finish no lower than fourth place in the Conference, and can finish as high as first.

In the meantime, the Utica Comets have wrapped up the North Division, and the San Antonio Rampage have locked up the West Division.

Rockford started the week by winning a 5-3 game against the Iowa Wild.

In his first professional game, recently assigned forward Tanner Kero scored his first professional goal just 4:56 into the game.

Shortly past the midway point of the second period, NHL veteran Ruslan Fedotenko picked up his third goal of the season to even things up at 1-1.

Mark McNeill pulled Rockford ahead later in the period with his 21st marker of the campaign to put the ‘Hogs ahead 2-1 after 20 minutes.

Rockford was in control of the game and held a 16-6 shots on goal advantage.

Terry Broadhurst continued his solid play after his return from injury notching his fifth tally of the season 47 seconds into the second period.

Iowa made a game of it as Stephane Veilleux tallied two straight second period markers to pull the Wild even at 3-3.

Around 40 seconds after Veilleux’s second goal, Grayson Downing was sent to the box for hooking and Dennis Rasmussen used the power play advantage to score his 13th of the season and put Rockford ahead 4-3.

Red-hot Spencer Abbott potted his 17th goal of the season unassisted with 1:34 left in the second to give Rockford a little cushion and a 5-3 lead heading into the final frame.

Despite Iowa tripling Rockford in shots 21-7 the IceHogs managed three goals to Iowa’s two.

Both teams traded shots in the final frame but neither team tallied another marker as Rockford took a 5-3 win with them to Charlotte.

In the first game against the Checkers it was Rockford pitching a 2-0 shutout in front of 13,219 fans.

See ICEHOGS on Page 44

Goaltender Antti Raanta earned his second shutout this weekend with a 2-0 blanking of the Charlotte Checkers on Friday. Shortly after Saturday’s game, Raanta was recalled by the Chicago Blackhawks.
