Rock River

ComEd and river goers at same level?

By Frank Schier

Rebuilding Rockford Capital Improvement Program backbone of putting city back on the map for commerce

Editor and Publisher

By Shane Nicholson

The Rock River Homeowners Association (RRHA), and Rock River Enterprises and Barge (RREB) have raised funds to install a new river-level gauge on the Davis Park seawall at Rockford’s Fordham Dam. This gauge will replace the Auburn Street Bridge gauge, which will be taken down. Steve Lucas, the president of RRHA and RREB, spearheaded the research and campaign for the new unit to combat conflicting river-level reports and enable the regular operation and flow of the dam. Many folks on the river have had issues with ComEd, which owns the Fordham dam, about maintaining the recreational pool and how the dam operates during drought and flood conditions. Hopefully, this new gauge will resolve all that. The gauge is a completely self-contained unit, uploading water levels by satellite feed every 15 minutes, and it is powered by a solar panel. Lucas said, “We were given permission by Tim Hanson, the Rockford Public Work Dept. Director, to install the gauge at Davis Park, and we are very grateful. Now anyone living on the river or anyone using the river knows if the dam is operating properly. We are raising private donations for the gauge, and rockriverhomeowners.org has a link to that effort on ‘river height’ page. We raised $5,000, plus we took some from our homeowners fund. We want to put a static gauge at the Auburn Street Bridge and another at the Latham Street Bridge. Our goal is $10,000.

The recent closure of the 3rd Street bridge was an eye-opener for many residents of Rockford but it was just another part of the job for the city’s engineering chief Matthew Vitner. “We want to promote three basic tenets across the board when it comes to infrastructure projects,” said Vitner during a sit down interview. “Number one is public safety; number two is to maintain and promote commerce and economic opportunity; and number three is to create a sense of well-being for our citizens. “In the case of the 3rd Street bridge, truck traffic was restricted already and that made it a public safety risk as the fire department was unable to use it.” The city’s 2020 Comprehensive Plan includes many areas of focus of which the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is just one, and deteriorating roadways are a high priority on the list for funds to flow to. “We’ve been able to leverage millions in state and federal funds,” said City Administrator Jim Ryan. “This is one of the largest CIP programs in the state and it’s an exciting plan.” Rockford has been able to in recent years shift core funding of the CIP away from the city’s general fund, lessening the use of bond measures and instead relying on sales tax and the state motor fuel tax for the bulk of funding. “By rolling over funds from past years and utilizing state funds and other available resources we’ve been able to create value for the city,” says Vitner. The city was able to carry over nearly $18.5 million from the 2014 budget to apply to this year’s projects. Current estimates provided in the 2015-2019 CIP plan have nearly $90 million

available over the next five years, with only $12.5 million coming from the city’s general fund. “Instead of just bonding out and increasing the debt load–there will be some bond but it will be reduced,” Vitner said, “we can improve the infrastructure by using federal and state tax credits and funding programs.” State funds were frozen for the month of March as part of Governor Bruce Rauner’s budget agenda. Both Vitner and Ryan said they don’t expect the freeze to be an on-going issue but Ryan admits the governor has not been forthcoming with information. “We’ve not had any further communication with the governor’s office,” said Ryan. “We don’t if they plan to extend the fuel tax cuts or not.”

Collaborative efforts

Vitner points to the plans to develop the former Turner School, at the corner of 10th Street and Broadway, into a police substation via the River Edge Redevelopment Zone program as an advantageous use of state programs. “The plan works in concert with geopolicing

projects to try and improve public safety,” he said. “By geographically locating them to where they can respond and serve better they can improve their service to the community. “The Turner School project will be using historic tax credits and it was brought into the River Edge zone to make that possible,” he continued, “so the city can take advantage of state funds and lessen the load on itself.” Ryan reiterated that such public safety concerns go into the development of every project. He says the 3rd Street bridge area, including the Whitman Street bridge, 9th and 6th Streets and Highway 251, is a project the city is looking at extensively. “Much of that interchange is overbuilt,” says Ryan. “We’re working toward converting 2nd and 3rd Streets to two-way traffic. Right now, the southbound ramp on 2nd Street has a high rate of accidents. Re-purposing that as a two-way street would lower the rate of accidents and allow See CIP on Page 33

State

Auditors find ‘challenges’ after first 100 days By Mark Fitton Illinois News Network

SPRINGFIELD —Treasurer Michael Frerichs announced Monday some challenges he’ll be addressing after a 100-day review by auditors. Frerichs, who took office in January, said he will largely scrap an internship program that also got a harsh report last year from the state’s auditor general. Frerichs said the large, paid internship program was “clout-heavy” with connected recipients, lacked formal written policies and procedures for management of interns and lacked performance evaluation. “When our internal auditors came in, they recommended it be changed dramatically, so we decided we are not going to have a large paid internship program,” Frerichs said at a Capitol news conference. Frerichs, D-Champaign, said he will switch to a much smaller, better defined and better monitored program that focuses on experience and academic credit. The internship program under former Treasurer Dan Rutherford, R-Chenoa, had more than 50 interns in both 2012 and 2013 and cost Illinoisans about $328,000 in at least two of the four years it operated, according

to the Chicago Sun-Times, which reported extensively on the matter. Calls to Rutherford for comment Monday evening were not immediately returned. In another matter, Frerichs said his office would take on a needed overhaul of the college savings scholarship program, which creates scholarship accounts awarded by the treasurer. The treasurer said although hundreds of scholarships had been awarded, the program was lacking basic rules regarding record keeping, management and distribution. And Frerichs said he’d see to better supervision of and cost controls for a handful of downstate treasurer’s office employees. The internal auditors found those homebased workers lacked adequate supervision, incurred high travel costs and were not effectively located. The number of home-based workers is now down to about three, Frerichs said, the supervision and travel costs are being addressed. The treasurer thanked Plante Moran, a large Midwestern accounting and consulting firm, for donating its services for the 100-day report. Officials contacted by Illinois News Network praised Frerichs for his efforts. “I don’t know the treasurer well, but it sounds like he’s trying to do the right things in

terms of accountability, transparency and reform,” said state Rep. Patti Bellock, R-Hinsdale Bellock said she credits Gov. Bruce Rauner, R-Winnetka, for heavier focus on those areas, but she also acknowledged those goals don’t belong to one party or the other. “Quite frankly, I think those are things the public is demanding more and more from officials and candidates, and rightly so.” Bellock said.

Union memo: Management threatens unsafe work conditions

Little common ground can be found between the state’s largest employees’ union and Illinois’ Governor. That’s according to a memo obtained by WMAY Springfield. The AFSCME Council 31 memo says the Union is pressing for safeguards against what they characterize as “irresponsible privatization”. One provision the memo says Governor Bruce Rauner is pushing for is to allow the employer to lay off bargaining unit employees and bring in vendor employees. The memo also highlights proposed contract changes like doing away with limits on forced overtime, bumping and layoff rights, among others. No economic proposals have been put on the

table, according to the memo from the Union to their members, but the memo mentions the planned $700 million is savings from a change in health insurance benefits for state employees in Governor Rauner’s proposed budget. The Union memo also promotes Unity Day coming this Thursday.

Incoming schools super on state funding

Funding problems for the state’s schools won’t get fixed in a year. That’s according to the incoming superintendent of schools for Illinois, Tony Smith. In an interview with the Associated Press earlier this month, Smith was asked changing the school funding disparities to which the superintendent said must happen but won’t be resolved anytime soon. Smith did say that simply spreading money equally around won’t fix the problems of some schools not getting enough state support to provide quality education. The AP’s interview also briefly explored Smith’s take on charter schools, unions bosses, and the new superintendent’s experience with high-poverty urban districts. Smith will take that position from Christopher Koch next month.

Energy & Environment

Policy complexity and citizen participation By Robert and Sonia Vogl President and Vice President, Illinois Renewable Energy Association

T

he energy situation is complex; energy policy is subject to change and is implemented with limited opportunities for public input. To facilitate public participation, nonprofit organizations such as the Environmental Law and Policy Center and the Citizens’ Utility Board exist to ensure the public’s voice is heard in Springfield. The Sierra Club organized a group to make their views known to legislators. During the dramatic rise in the price of electricity when Illinois was building nuclear power plants, large industries and businesses along with citizens raised concerns and policies were implemented which lessened adverse effects on the state’s economy and competitive position. In the past few years “community aggregation” programs provided an opportunity to lower the cost of electricity. The opportunity for savings was caused by some high-priced long term contracts which are now ending, so Chicago will once again buy electricity from ComEd. The change is expected to increase funding for renewable energy projects. Exelon is seeking approval during this legislative session for additional funds to keep three nuclear plants operating. Julie Wernau cited Morningstar’s Travis Miller as expressing doubts about the proposed closing of targeted nuclear power plants. Miller believes they could make more money by “agreeing to be available to the grid as capacity payments.” Capacity costs are paid by consumers so that power plants deliver electricity during times of high demand. The threatened Clinton nuclear plant recently made half of their plant output available to the grid for capacity payments which Exelon indicates will provide an additional rev-

enue of $13 million. Concerns have been raised regarding the fairness of the auction and its impact on consumer prices. Similar opportunities will be available for the Quad Cities and Bryon plants when capacity payments are expected to double in 2017 and 2018. Exelon claims its threatened nuclear plants need the state subsidy to keep them operating. The firm’s proposal includes a provision to return funds to ratepayers if energy and capacity payments exceed an undetermined level. Information on the economics of the plants involved has been released to legislators and Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan but not to the public. Other costs to be borne by ratepayers include building new power lines from the Byron plant to redirect production to the Chicago area and the ongoing upgrading of the electrical grid, including installing

smart meters. With the economics of nuclear plants looking a little brighter, Bob Flexon of Dynergy, which operates coal plants in

Illinois, is against awarding the rate increase and asked the decision be delayed. Howard Learner of the Environmental Law and Policy Center has also expressed opposition to the rate increase and has asked for a delay. The Citizens’ Utility Board, a non-profit, non-partisan organization formed to represent the interests of residential Illinois electric and gas utility customers, has two messages posted on its website to send to Illinois legislators. One asks them to reject Exelon’s proposal to add $300 million/year to ComEd and Ameren power bills. The second expresses support for the Illinois Clean Jobs bill advocating efficiency and renewable energy. We need to move aggressively to cut carbon emissions by 80 percent for a sustainable energy future. With three contrasting energy bills pending in Springfield a compromise is a likely outcome. It remains to be seen if a compromise occurs and whether it supports a transition to a more resilient, decentralized, safe and sustainable energy system. Drs. Robert and Sonia Vogl can be reached via e-mail at sonia@essex1.com.

How to read your soil test results

By Grant McCarty

Local Foods and Small Farms Educator, University of Illinois Extension

S

o you’ve gotten your soil test results. How do you interpret them? Over the last years, soil test results have become easier to read. Most will tell you how much fertilizer to add based on what plants you specified you were growing. Soil test results will also show information on pH, phosphorus, potassium, soil organic matter (SOM), soluble salts, among others. our soil tests will also give rankings as to whether these are low or high. Additional information on other nutrients and soil qualities will be given but in most cases our main concerns are nitrogen, SOM, phosphorus, potassium, and soil pH. When you examine the soil results, you’ll notice there is no mention of nitrogen levels. Nitrogen fluctuates in the soil so a test result for nitrogen is not accurate. The nitrogen recommendation from the results page comes from the SOM, plants you are growing, and other soil qualities. Your SOM will be between 1-6% in the soil. If SOM is towards the low end, you may have limitations on the availability of nitrogen

Y

in the soil. As mentioned previously in my column, you should always be adding organic matter to the soil. Both phosphorus and potassium are the macronutrients of Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium (NPK) that we are concerned about. Optimum levels of P and K can vary among soil testing labs. In general, vegetables need soil with 18-50 ppm for phosphorus and 111150 ppm for potassium. Soil pH is a measurement of the acidity of your soil. Acidic soil is less than pH 7 while above 7 is considered alkaline. In general, vegetables and fruit grow well in pH between 6.0-7.5. In this range, your plants will acquire all of the soil nutrients they need. If the soil pH is too low or high, recommendations will be given to change these. The last part of the results page will be your fertilizer recommendation. You want to match the NPK recommendation with a fertilizer. For instance, a recommendation of 0.3-0.6-0.3 would be a fertilizer that is a 1-2-1 ratio. It’s important to get as close to this ratio as you can. Information for the lbs of fertilizer to apply will be provided. With these results, you are ready for a productive season.

Corn market expects large supply and weak demand By Debra Levey Larson University of Illinois

URBANA – Corn prices have come under renewed pressure, with a decline of nearly 20 cents in futures prices over the past week. Those prices are now at the lowest level since October 2014. According to a University of Illinois agricultural economist, old-crop basis continues to strengthen seasonally in most markets. “The average cash price in central Illinois was 14 cents under July 2015 futures on April 23, compared to 70 cents under in late September and early October 2014,” said Darrel Good. “Low corn prices appear to reflect expectations for a combination of prolonged demand weakness and another year of ample supplies.” Good explained that expectations for demand weakness center on the ethanol and export markets. “It is generally argued that plateauing domestic ethanol consumption, a stronger dollar that could favor ethanol imports and discourages exports, and low crude oil prices will limit the price of ethanol and the demand for corn,” he said. “Similarly, abundant world grain supplies and a stronger dollar are expected to create a weak demand environment for U.S. corn in the world market. In contrast, domestic feed demand for corn should be supported by ongoing expansion in livestock and poultry numbers, even with some loss of poultry numbers to bird flu.” The supply of corn for the 2015-16 marketing year will consist of carryover supplies of old-crop corn and the 2015 harvest. The USDA currently projects the carryover of old-crop corn at 1.827 billion bushels. “The most uncertainty about consumption of corn during the remainder of the 2014-15 marketing year is in the feed and residual category,” Good said. “The combination of expanding livestock numbers and low corn prices should generate a high level of consumption. Currently, the USDA projects use during the last half of the marketing year at 1.569 billion bushels, which would account for 30 percent of the marketing-year total.” Last year at the same time, the USDA projected that use during the last half of the year would total 1.535 billion bushels and account for 29 percent of the marketing-year total, Good said. Use actually totaled only 1.27 billion bushels, accounting for 25 percent of the marketing-year total. Because there is a fairly large residual component of feed and residual use, total marketing-year use will not be known until the September 1 Grain Stocks report is released. Good said the potential size of the 2015 harvest will unfold over the next several months. The USDA’s March 31 Prospective Plantings report revealed that 89.199 million acres of corn were intended to be planted this year,

1.398 million fewer acres than planted last year. An estimate of actual planted acres will be available with USDA’s June 30 Acreage report. From 1996 (the beginning of the freedom to farm era) through 2014, the final estimate of planted acreage of corn exceeded the March intentions estimate in seven years and was less than the March estimate in 12 years. In most years, the difference was within the range of sampling error, estimated at 1 to 3 percent. The exception was 2007 when actual planted acres exceeded intentions by nearly 3.1 million acres. In the remaining 18 years, the difference ranged from 32 thousand to 1.925 million acres and averaged 920 thousand acres (in absolute terms). “It is interesting that in eight of the 19 years the June acreage estimate failed to correctly identify the direction of the difference between intended and actual acreage,” Good said. “There is already a lot of discussion again this year about the direction and magnitude of the difference between actual and intended acreage of corn. Chances are the difference will not substantially alter production expectations. “The near-term focus will be on yield prospects for the 2015 corn crop,” Good said. “For now, commentary will focus on the rate of planting progress and yield potential. All else equal, the larger percentage of the crop that is planted in a timely fashion, the higher the U.S. average yield potential. However, all else is rarely equal, with the magnitude of yield ultimately determined by summer weather. The generally late planted crop of 2009, for example, experienced a new record yield while the extremely early planted crop of 2012 experienced the lowest yield in 17 years.” According to Good, unless an unusually large or small percentage of the crop is planted late this year, yield expectations should continue to focus on trend value in the range of 164 to 165 bushels. The USDA will report an expected yield in the May 12 World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE). That yield expectation is based on a weather-adjusted trend model that reflects expected planting progress at mid-May. “Uncertainty about the size of the 2015 corn crop will continue for the next few months,” Good said. “Similarly, the strength of corn demand will be revealed over time. In addition to the weekly pace of exports and ethanol production, the USDA’s estimate of June 1 stocks that reveals third-quarter feed and residual use will be important indicators of demand strength. The expected June announcement by EPA in regard to biofuels mandates will also be potentially important for corn demand. Current prices appear to reflect minimum production risk and surprisingly weak demand prospects,” he said.

Mary Poppins flies into RVC’s Starlight By Richard Gubbe Contributor

T

iming is everything for Starlight Theatre Director Mike Webb. Entering his 31st season as the procurer of all shows timely, Webb was able to snatch up four relevant, funny and immensely popular shows for the 49th outdoor season at Rock Valley College. Single tickets go on sale May 1 for the summer series. The Disney family favorite “Mary Poppins” leads off, followed by “The Last Five Years,” “Memphis” and “Young Frankenstein.” “‘Mary Poppins’ just became available for my size group,” Webb told TRRT. “I jumped on it as soon as we could.” There are 12 “Mary Poppins” shows booked thus far in what Webb calls “a pretty spectacular season.”

Mary Poppins

Mary flying through the air, plenty of familiar scenery and a fabled Disney epic start things off. Samantha Owens, who played Christine in “Phantom of the Opera” for Webb, will be Mary. She’s taking time off from Broadway and Off-Broadway appearances.

“She’s very successful and talented and we’re glad to have her in town,” Webb said. Peaton Schoenhofer will play Bert, Tim Dorgan is Mr. Banks and Denise Lundine is Mrs. Banks. The practically perfect nanny takes the stage for shows June 3-7 and July 8-12. Based on the original books by P.L. Travers, Disney and Cameron Mackintosh’s Mary Poppins delighted Broadway audiences for over 2,500 performances and received nominations for nine Olivier and seven TONY Awards, including Best Musical. The jack-of-all trades, Bert, takes us back to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins drops in. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren’t the only ones she has a profound effect upon. Even adults can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that “Anything can happen if you let it.” The lyrics by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman formed the Disney movie with

additional music and lyrics by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe for the play co-created by Mackintosh. Mary Poppins was the lead character in a series of eight books written by Travers. Throughout the Mary Poppins series, which was published over the period 1934 to 1988, the books center on a magical English nanny blown by the wind to Number Seventeen Cherry Tree Lane, London. Encounters with chimney sweeps, shopkeepers and various adventures follow until Mary Poppins abruptly leaves, i.e., “pops-out.” The books were adapted by Disney in 1964 into a musical starring Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke. In 2004, Disney Theatrical, in collaboration with Mackintosh (who had previously acquired the stage rights from Travers) produced a stage musical also called Mary Poppins in the West End Theater. The stage musical was transferred to Broadway in 2006, where it ran until its closing in March 2013. In 2013 the film “Saving Mr. Banks” depicted the making of the film. Travers resisted selling the stage rights to the Mary Poppins stories for many years as a result of her dislike of the film and her perception of being treated discourteously

by Walt Disney at the film’s premiere. Travers eventually agreed to sell the stage rights after being approached by Mackintosh.

The Last Five Years

This two-person musical is relatively new from Jason Robert Brown and will run June 10-14 and July 15-19. A movie also has been made recently but has had limited exposure in some theaters around the country. This modern musical, rated PG, chronicles the life of a marriage from meeting to break-up and from break-up to meeting. Karen Manley Kahler is Cathy and Matt Myers is Jaime in Starlight’s smallest cast ever. The woman evolves from an ambitious, fresh-faced girl in a new relationship to a woman stunned by a betrayal and a divorce that she is only beginning to understand Her love interest is an ambitious guy on a promising first date with a dazzling career to someone who is blinded by success and ego. He is very lovable, yet makes unintentional choices that sabotages his own happiness.

company played the Coronado Theater. The enormously popular show will run June 17-21 and July 22-26. The Memphis DJ who just brings black music to his all-white-all-the-time radio station causes quite a racial stir. Ray Fanara will assume the role of Huey Calhoun, who falls in love with Felicia (Jayla Williams-Craig). Felicia is an extraordinary talent who falls for Huey despite the opposition from her brother Del Ray (John Stanford), who owns the all-black nightclub where Huey can’t get enough of that rich Memphis sound. Gladys will be played by Janet Bracken, Mr. Simmons by Christopher Berndt and Jaylen Marks will be Bobby. The show examines the sensitivity of racial dating in the Deep South during the 1950s by using humor, singing and plenty of dancing. Webb called “Memphis” a “very expensive show” that exceeded $30,000 for the rights to the script. Webb said he was trying to land “Grease” only to have a more timely hit fall his way.

Young Frankenstein

The spicy theater version of the famed film by the same title, “Young Frankenstein” will run June 24-28 and July 29-Aug. 2. Music and lyrics by Mel Brooks, the dark comedy is the electrifying stage adaptation of the black and white epic. For those unaware, Young Frankenstein if the grandson of the infamous Victor Frankenstein. Frederick Frankenstein (pronounced “Fronk-ensteen”) inherits his family’s estate in Transylvania.

With the help of a hunchbacked sidekick, Igor (pronounced “Eye-gore”), and a leggy lab assistant, Inga, Frederick finds himself in the mad scientist shoes of his ancestors. “It’s alive!” he exclaims as he brings to life a creature to rival his grandfather’s. Eventually, of course, the monster escapes and hilarity ensues. With memorable tunes such as “The Transylvania Mania,” “He Vas My Boyfriend” and “Puttin’ On The Ritz,” the show is rated PG due to its colorful language. Charlie Rasmann will play Frederick, who is the Dean of Anatomy at New York’s best university. Elizabeth Benning, Frederick’s fiancee, will be played by Stephanie-Souza Rasmann. Rose McGregor, who played Maria in “Sound of Music” last season, will be Inga. The misunderstood creation of Frederick and a hopeless romantic will be played by Nathan Forrester. Igor, Frederick’s faithful, bright-eyed, eager servant, will be played by none other than Eric Wilson, the area’s closest answer to Marty Feldmann. Webb considered the show for last season but another area venue had bought the rights. Instead, he went with “Spamalot” with Wilson as Lancelot. “It’s the right time and place for ‘Young Frankenstein’ and a complement to ‘Spamalot’ lovers,” Webb said.

By Todd Houston Special to TRRT

Rockford Rocked Interviews: You were a member of some very popular bands in the Rockford area back in the 1980s and ‘90s including Puppet, Sometimes i and Agent. What was the local music scene like around that time? Rob Bradley: The local music scene was very active! In the early ‘80s the place to be was Main and Auburn at the Great Illinois Purchase. They had top area bands, regional acts and an occasional national act. I remember seeing Off Broadway, The Names and Ruby Star down there. As for me, I played in the original Daggers, the very first version of Puppet, 2DMaxx and Agent just to name a few. Agent enjoyed great regional success as an original/cover band. We were signed with Ken Adamany and Assoc., who also worked with Cheap Trick, Off Broadway and other Chicago area bands. RRI: I remember the Rockford radio station Y95 supporting local bands with their shortly lived Radio Vision show. I recently saw an Agent video featuring a young Rob Bradley on lead guitar! Was the video shoot totally live? What was the experience like? RB: Yes, totally live and only one take! We were a pretty tight band with good musicians. Back then we would practice a lot. Now it seems you’re lucky if you can get in a practice a month after everyone checks their schedule. I completely forgotten about that video until Ron Johnson posted it on Facebook. RRI: I’m told you collect vintage guitars and amplifiers. Do you ever miss the days when you could go into a local music store and pick up a beater Les Paul or 70’s Fender Stratocaster guitar for the price of a dinner for 5 at Chili’s? RB: I wish I could go back and buy up some of that stuff people would sell for next to nothing! The internet and eBay has made finding those deals next to impossible. I really don’t have much of a collection. Most of my gear that I use now is either amps I built or modified Silver face Fenders and telecasters that my good friend Trip Thienemann built me, seriously great guitars! I do have a fondness for Gretsch guitars however. RRI: Tell us about current music related projects or bands that you have been involved with recently. RB: I’ve been playing in a Alt. country/Rockabilly band called the Fresh Hot Fritters for a few years now with Trip Thienemann , who also played in Robin Banks , Rick Nolting , who some will remember from the Band the Consultants and Dave DeRosso. I do some pick up gigs with Steve Stapler, his gigs are loose and fun with an emphasis on not practicing and calling a lot of audibles which will usually include a couple songs I won’t know. I’ve also joined up with a country band that had members from Thunder-

heart. This band is called Love and Thunder; we do some current country and a few older tunes. RRI: What’s your take on the whole “Bro-country” thing that’s been sweeping the nation for the last five or six years? You know, repeated lyrical themes such as Friday nights, alcoholic beverages, “painted on” jeans, High school days and trucks? RB: Did anyone listen to that Facebook post where someone pasted together three modern country songs and how well they morphed together? They really just sounded like the same song. I guess that speaks volumes for what most of the new country is about. I suppose that’s why they call it the music industry, you’ve got song writers that pretty much punch a time clock and assemble songs for the labels to send to the studios, when a handful of studio guys will track them w/ the Artist. After it’s pasteurized, homogenized and packaged it hardly resembles music as an art form, but just a product for mass consumption. RRI: Not too many guys our age are still out there playing on a regular basis. How do you find the time to juggle work, music and family? Obviously family is number one. Thoughts? RB: I usually overdo it and take on more than I can handle w/ musical projects. When I get overwhelmed by it my thoughts are what the hell was I thinking? But as soon as it slows down a little I get stir crazy. If and when I get older my time will be spent more with my wife Lori who has tolerated more than anyone should have to, and spending more time with my daughters and grandson. RRI: Let’s have some fun. I say a word or phrase and you say whatever pops into your head! New Glarus Beer. RB: One of my all time favorites! Can you say Wisconsin road trip? RRI: Chicago Bears organization. RB: Virginia, would you please sell the team?! RRI: Fender Telecaster guitars. RB: The Swiss army knife of guitars; tone for days. Hands down, my favorite. RRI: Bass fishing on a quiet summer’s day. RB: I’ve got to find more time for that! RRI: What’s next for Rob Bradley? RB: I think when I retire from my day job I’ll start an amp repair shop that will focus on getting every little bit of tone out of the guitarist’s amps. Maybe restoring old Fenders and Marshall amps will be in the works too. I would like to do some volunteer work helping kids that have that passion to play music. I know the people on the RAMI committee have done great work in this area. Bruce Hammond has spent decades working behind the scenes keeping the Rockford area music alive. There are lot more people that have dedicated their time to this cause also and I applaud their efforts.

The real cost of income inequality By Gregory John Campbell Contributor

T 100%

50%

his citizen listened to NPR’s The Diane Rehm Show April 20, with Diane and Joseph Stiglitz, the Noble Prize winning economist, discussing income inequality. But at no point did either zero in on why income inequality exists in our country and at such unprecedented levels. Income inequality exists in our country because it is the inevitable result of an economic system designed to foster income inequality in order to succeed. Because when short term profit, extraction and consumption, coupled with long term unemployment, are the fundamental necessities of a Somali “free rape-it” economic system, long term income, investment, conservation and employment will be eliminated for it to succeed. This is why technology is used by management to eliminate labor, and why the internet furthers the erosion of our local economies, because every product or service we purchase on the “net” is one more product or service we could’ve purchased locally. In both cases these technologies are eliminating local economies and employment for corporate monopoly. Therefore, to suggest the Morlock Washington elite are interested in shrinking Eloi income inequality is laughable, because their corporate political success depends on furthering income inequality, because America’s large corporations and politicians profit from this Somali economic model. Diane and Mr. Stiglitz discussed a political solution for this inequity in 2016 and this would’ve been credible if we had a reliable political system and secure voting, but we don’t, because the corporations own every party, candidate and voting machine in this country. Further, when Hillary Clinton has taken $1 billion from Wall St. over the past decade, who do you think she’ll answer to? We already know where the Republican neoliberal and libertarian candidate’s stand—in every corporate boardroom in America—so whatever

any of these politicians may say in 2016 about income inequality; it’ll be lip-service. The corporate political elite in Washington have wed themselves to an economic model and political system designed to destroy our nation, because when a country’s wealth is sequestered to a smaller and smaller percentage of the population, the larger public will suffer and perish from this disparity inevitably. And there’s no way to avoid this outcome, because an economic model based on competition is founded on short term domination and confiscation, not long term cooperation and distribution. And so as costs steadily increase over time to garner the 1 percent a profit, the 99 percent will be pinched further to meet these costs until only the 1 percent can afford them. This is the real cost of income inequality from global outsourcing and offshoring. For an economy based on increasing elite profit, not general welfare, must continually wrest more income from the majority through those costs to meet that profit, even if it means destroying that majority. And when you have infinite growth in a finite world the ecology will be destroyed by a capital model that must increasingly consume that world to profit corporately, not sustain humanly or conserve nationally. This was Jimmy Carter’s eventual message, and so we are witnessing the final stages of unregulated laissez faire capitalism eat itself to death. This will be no feast for any nation as Marx foretold. Consequently, the Federalist capital elite which formed the Constitution remains in control to this day, as Alexander Hamilton declared then, “All communities divide themselves into the few and the many. The first are the rich and well born, the other the mass of the people…The people are turbulent and changing; they seldom judge or determine right. Give therefore to the first a distinct permanent share in the government. They will check the unsteadiness of the second, and… will ever maintain good government.” Indeed.

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.

Crime doesn’t pay, and neither does non-violent sentencing

Dimke plan a mess all around

By Scott Reeder Illinois News Network

I

hurried on to the train Thursday, glanced down at my boarding pass and then saw I was seated next to a newly released inmate. The cheap sneakers, ill fitting clothes and cellblock tats gave it away. I knew I was in for a long journey from Chicago to Springfield. The Illinois Department of Corrections gives prisoners who have served their time Amtrak tickets allowing them to return to their families. The young man sitting next to me had just finished serving four years at the Danville Correctional Center. He had visited his mother and brother in Chicago and was heading to Springfield to live with his girlfriend. “When I got home I found out my little brother was hooked on crack cocaine. Can you believe that? He’s just 17 and he’s hooked on crack,“ my seatmate said as he popped open a can of Miller High Life stashed in a bag under his seat I said, “Uh huh” and tried to bury my nose a little deeper in my book. Prisoners going free is a subject that makes us uncomfortable. Why? It’s sometimes hard to know what to say. What do you say to someone who has just been sprung? Congratulations? Best wishes? Keep your nose clean? In Illinois, 47 percent of inmates released end up returning to prison. That’s an embarrassment. No nation locks up a higher percentage of its citizens than the United States of America. Is the land of the free now the home of the incarcerated? Violent criminals belong behind bars. But

so often the folks we lock up aren’t dangerous. In fact, 45 percent of Illinois inmates are locked up for nonviolent offenses. And the Illinois Department of Corrections has 48,000 people locked up in a system designed to house 32,000. That’s a dangerous situation not only for convicts, but for staff. Remember, just about everyone who goes to prison gets out. And seldom does someone leave prison a better person than when they went in. But by the same token, no one ever left prison ever wanting to go back. The young man who was sitting next to me is a good case in point. “I’ve got to look after my baby and my baby’s mamma now. I’m willing to do any kind of work. I’m even willing to work at Burger King,” he said. He then glanced at my shirt and tie and said “Do you think you could get me a job?” I’m moving to Springfield because I want to start over,” he said as he took a swallow from his third beer. Sadly, there are a lot of jobs this young man won’t be eligible for because of his felony conviction. It is difficult for felons to become barbers, nail technicians and a whole host of other licensed vocations. It’s time to lift those restrictions. After all, the harder it is for someone to find a job, the more likely it is they’ll return to crime. It’s also time to look at reducing sentences for non-violent offences. The Illinois Senate’s vote last week to reduce penalties for having a small amount of pot is a step in the right direction. We need to look at intelligent sentencing alternatives for other crimes as well. Crime may not pay, but neither does the way Illinois has been dealing with non-violent offenses.

Presented Without Comment

‘There’s this journalistic ethos saying if I get one opinion then I need to get another opinion that countervails that. So if I say the world is round are you obligated to say the world is flat, lest someone think you are being biased in your reporting? Well, that’s absurd.’ -Neil deGrasse Tyson

From Bruce Hammond hile I find it admirable that you’re supporting your friend Tim Dimke, I think your extended defense of his proposed retirement arrangement in last week’s The Rock River Times is largely beside the point. Before going any further let me say that I have no axe to grind with Tim. As far as I’m concerned, he was a no-brainer choice to replace Webbs Norman as the head of the Park District. He has performed creditably in that capacity and seems – from my very limited, first-hand experience around him – to be a pretty decent guy. I’m also definitely not suggesting that Tim is somehow not entitled to whatever IMRF pension he expects to draw. There may be some evidence here of salary “spiking” (late term pay gimmicks that raise one’s maximum pension benefits), but I’m not sure the TRRT or the Rockford Register Star really gave us enough information on this point to form a valid opinion. Because this sort of thing goes on all over the place and won’t really be addressed until all State and Municipal Pension Funds are overhauled, targeting one individual for availing themselves of this means to enhance their retirement – barring illegal activities – is arbitrary at best. However, juggling numbers to show how much money the Park District would save, digging up instances of other retirees who were granted pensions and hired back as consultants and attacking the motives/methods of other participants or commentators of this little drama, while perhaps useful in polarizing the issue, side-step what I see as the most obvious sticking point, namely that the proposed pension plus independent contractor pay would have been a substantial pay raise for Tim Dimke. So far nobody has been very precise with the numbers they’ve been throwing around but both local papers put Dimke’s current salary in the $150K range. I believe IMRF caps pension benefits at 75 percent of the retiree’s highest four-year average salary. This would put Dimke’s annual benefits in the neighborhood of $112,500. Added to the contract payments from the Park District he would earn about $237,500 the first year. With the automatic 3 percent COLA increases on the pension benefits he would earn over $244K in the third and final year of the contract for doing the job for which he is currently paid $150K. Any additional expense Dimke incurs as an outside contractor will almost assuredly be offset by the tax advantages of being self-employed rather than a salaried employee. The perception that the average taxpayer will take away in this situation is that Dimke

W

‘People are always fudging numbers to rationalize getting what they want. Remember how we were told a number of years ago – complete with a professional looking pro forma – that if we spent $20 million on renovating the Metro Centre and $3 million to buy a hockey team that the arena would no longer require operational subsidies? Did anybody besides the Mayor and City Council actually believe that?’ has engineered an $87K per year raise for himself for the first year of his contract and really, that’s about all that matters here. As far as the proposed savings to the Park District (taxpayer) that the TRRT column puts forth, I’m a bit skeptical and would need a lot more detailed, accurate information before buying in. People are always fudging numbers to rationalize getting what they want. Remember how we were told a number of years ago – complete with a professional looking pro forma – that if we spent $20 million on renovating the Metro Centre and $3 million to buy a hockey team that the arena would no longer require operational subsidies? Did anybody besides the Mayor and City Council actually believe that? Projected savings often tend to disappear when they’ve been exposed to reality for a while. A reasonably accurate projection might be possible if one had access to all the relevant information, but it’s all pretty much a moot point as of right now so I’m not convinced that further digging would be beneficial to anyone. While I can agree with the TRRT column that a lot of this was handled badly by a number of players in this little drama, the final outcome (so far) is pretty much where it should be. Dimke is still being paid a reasonable salary to head the Park District until his projects are completed or he chooses to actually retire from his job. He is still entitled to a pretty substantial pension when he does retire. (A retiree from the Teachers Retirement System receiving over $100K per year gets banner, negative headlines from the Illinois Policy Institute or Illinois News Network.) And the Park District doesn’t have to take any more heat from Joe Average Taxpayer about abetting a windfall pay raise for its top employee.

‘We should be out saying Rockford is the best place to live in Illinois because we have real value here, we’re making real changes. People take it for granted how much the city has to offer.’ CIP

From Page 4

Highway 251 to remain continuous instead of being split into one-way roadways.” Vitner and Ryan also emphasized converting 9th Street into a two-way roadway as a point of emphasis, allowing emergency vehicles easier access to the nearby community and creating a better neighborhood traffic flow. But, as Ryan says, it’s important not to stick another bandage on what has become a broken arm in Rockford’s infrastructure. “Under a couple different circumstances we can eliminate acres of asphalt and remove a couple bridges that will make it more sustainable.” He draws back to the failed plans that would have seen Interstate 90 pass through the downtown area: “That whole interchange was built for a highway that was never built,” Ryan said. “So we don’t look at the redesign as a 5 or 10 year plan but more a 40 year plan.” Vitner says that the 3rd Street bridge isn’t the only area of immediate concern for the Public Works Department. “There’s about 14 others like (3rd Street),” he said, “so in this plan for this year we’re emphasizing areas like the Alpine Road culverts near State Street. We’re looking at areas adjacent to the (Route 20) bypass.” Vitner says the current CIP focuses on routes that carry truck traffic as they impact business directly, not just in terms of semis and other large loads but because they carry the vast majority of passenger vehicle traffic in the area as well. Ryan added, “The culverts on Alpine are both big priorities due to the commerce and emergency vehicle access they provide. We have to weigh that as opposed to a residential street which carries less traffic.”

Striking a balance

Striking a balance in the overall project is vital to the economic future of the city according to Vitner. “We’ve got the River Edge zone and the Enterprise Zone–we got an $8 million grant and that’s where you see something like the outdoor market come out of to help bring people downtown and to reactivate the downtown space.” He says working in conjunction with local

business owners is crucial to implementing the overall plan as developing projects concurrently can bring a quicker and bigger payoff for citizens and the area as a whole. “The more foot traffic you get, the more businesses grow, the more the commercial and retail side grows. “When you have that you see the percentage of residential space in areas such as downtown come back into a proper ratio.” Having local developers work in concert with the CIP will produce better results for the community, Vitner feels, and he said he hopes that local business owners will take advantage of similar state tax credits that the city is using to help speed redevelopment of Rockford. Ryan agrees and feels that Vitner has helped the city take great strides toward its goals. “Matt has done a fantastic job,” he said. “He has a great construction background and just gets it when it comes to the relationship between core infrastructure needs and how it relates to investment.” But the physical changes aren’t the only image overhauls Rockford needs, says Vitner. “The city is doing a great job to create value and promote itself,” he says, “but we need to do a better job promoting ourselves. We concentrate too much on the negative images, on the negative stories. We need to show people that Rockford is a place to come, that it’s a place on the move, and we need to promote ourselves in the right way to reach those goals. “The people here understand what happened to Rockford, and if you start out with a negative you’ve already handicapped yourself,” he says. “We should be out saying Rockford is the best place to live in Illinois because we have real value here, we’re making real changes. People take it for granted how much the city has to offer.” But he feels the CIP can help bring those positive images back to Rockford and help rejuvenate a area that has been downtrodden economically for years. “I feel like I’m not just the engineer for the city,” he says, “because we work with the city manager and the mayor to promote an overall philosophy to bring change. “The Capital Improvement Plan is just one part of that.”

THERE IS A NEED FOR NEW PHYSICAL THERAPY EQUIPMENT

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

Your Horoscope By Denise Guzzardo Week of April 29-May 5, 2015

This Week: The full moon in Scorpio May 3 will be quite intense. Jupiter (the lucky lotto planet) will try its best to compliment that energy. However; it may be best not to attempt to push any issues during this time frame. Health and wellness issues will be a focus, especially mental wellness. Be cautious of whose buttons you may attempt to push because you may get a very unexpected response. In other words, if you don’t want your head handed to you on a silver platter keep your thoughts to yourself. Aries (March 21 to April 19) — You may have a new location for a home environment or work environment in mind. As the month of May begins to move along opportunities are presented to make this dream come true. The perfect fit for you and your emotional space. Midweek brings in old friends and family to catch up. This provides a tremendous amount of insight for you to utilize to its full potential Aries. Taurus (April 20 to May 20)­— You might need to clear up an old debt or an old emotional issue this week. Once this is settled you can move on knowing that this is behind you now. Travel plans may be in the works at this time.

If you’re able to get away anytime soon this will more than likely improve your romantic sector as well. A concern about the health of a female friend will be resolved this week for the better Taurus. Gemini (May 21 to June 20) — Once you get past Wednesday you will find things falling into place quicker than you had anticipated. Delays will only help you to be at the right place at the right time. Try not to be too frustrated, the universe is setting you up for a major positive impact now. Friday you’re connecting with a person from your past. This will be a very humorous as well as an emotional experience Gemini. Cancer (June 21 to July 22) — Some positive news regarding your home environment will be arriving this week. This helps you to see that delays have been in place for a reason and now everything is aligning in a timely matter. A past romantic relationship may be on your mind this week. Their behavior confuses you and you’re not sure what their motive is. Let them do all of the talking, your answer will surely come out during the course of the conversation Cancer. Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22) — Romance is very positive this week. After a long drawn out struggle you’re able to see the benefits of this relationship and how much it means to you. Outside influences have been a major source of irritation for you. Continue to set boundaries with those that have the potential to harm you or a loved one. No one can conquer an undivided house Leo.

How do you know when it’s time for hospice?

Travel like an Architect

Tale of colonial Illinois about collaboration rather than conquest

First or second honeymoons chance to reignite romance By Lynn Belles

By Craig Chamberlain

Independent Vacation Specialist

Social Sciences Editor, U of I News Bureau

CHAMPAIGN — Illinois has an early colonial history that’s easily forgotten, or boiled down to just the explorers Marquette and Jolliet and a few French fur traders. What’s missing in that, however, is a surprising history of European and native cooperation, interracial marriage and mixed-race communities, according to a University of Illinois history professor. “It’s a very different and distinctive kind of colonial history than what we tend to think of,” said Robert Morrissey, the author of the recently published “Empire by Collaboration: Indians, Colonists, and Governments in Colonial Illinois Country.” Rather than finding conflict, the people involved found mutual self-interest, Morrissey said. And rather than carrying out the wishes of the French empire that supposedly ruled them, they often acted in defiance of it, then forced it to go along. “My point in the book is to kind of complicate the understanding of how people think about colonialism in early America, and the idea of empire in early America, as much more of a two-way street,” Morrissey said. “In this case, there were lots of ways in which Indians took advantage of the European presence, and Europeans benefitted from their relationship with native peoples.” Understanding that theme probably starts with understanding the Illinois Indians and their bid for power in the region at that time, Morrissey said. Their home base was the Grand Village of the Kaskaskia, near present-day Starved Rock State Park, on the Illinois River about 80 miles southwest of Chicago. At one point, it would be the largest concentration of population in North America north of Mexico City. The Illinois had chosen that location for its access to bison-hunting, but also because it was a borderland between tribes to the east and west, and served as a base from which to raid those tribes to take captives for trading as slaves, Morrissey said. Mostly women, these slaves were taken and traded not for their labor, but to replace Indian populations that had been decimated by European diseases and conflicts in the Great Lakes region. The slave trade became an important basis for Illinois power, Morrissey said, and the Illinois would rank among the most powerful peoples in North American at the end of the 1600s. French settlement began with Jesuits establishing a mission in the 1680s near the Grand Village, and the settlement would attract French fur traders. As far as French officials were concerned, neither the priests nor the fur traders were supposed to be there. They were not part of French plans.

Soon, French men were marrying Illinois women, and with Jesuit encouragement, Morrissey said. The men gained not only wives, but beneficial connections to the tribe, and the women had their own reasons for valuing these arrangements. Eventually, five mixed-race settlements would be established much farther south, on the Illinois side of the Mississippi River, south of present-day St. Louis. Morrissey said the settlements included slaves seized from both African and Native American populations. And they began to farm, eventually growing enough wheat for export down the river. French officials had not wanted to settle the “Illinois Country,” wanting instead to establish intensive settlements in Canada where they would “Frenchify” the Indians, Morrissey said. In many ways, and ironically, “these people had Frenchified,” he said. A further irony was that although these settlers and their Indian allies had largely acted from self-interest, they still wanted and needed connection with the empire. “They’re not trying to be independent out here on the edge of the world,” Morrissey said. “They’re trying to work themselves into the networks of the Atlantic world, but on terms that are advantageous to them.” In addition to connection, they needed the empire to give them government and law, Morrissey said. The need was so strong that when the Illinois Country became British territory in the 1760s, after the French and Indian War, these villages were practical and ready to accommodate. “There’s no nostalgia for France,” he said. “They’re like, ‘OK, what’s next? Fine, we’ll be British.’” As a result, in the early 1770s, as colonists on the East Coast are beginning to talk about throwing off British rule, the colonists in Illinois are lobbying for more of that rule. “The farmers of Illinois were appealing to the British empire to send them a government,” Morrissey said. But it was too late. By the time these inhabitants of Illinois got the British government’s attention, the American Revolution was underway. Under the American government that followed, the collaborative imperial culture in Illinois was overshadowed by new Yankee settlers “with different ideas and more power,” Morrissey said. As a result, much of Illinois’ multicultural colonial population migrated west, bringing their distinctive political culture and pragmatism with them.

Over the weekend we did a local bridal show at Pearl Bistro. I never realized until we did all the set up preparation what a perfect honeymoon a cruise makes. I should have because we did a cruise for our honeymoon many years ago. I still have a picture on my desk, me with my hair braided–I had it done on a secluded beach in St. Thomas. Even then we went with our blueprint, a plan for what we wanted to do and where we wanted to go. I remember looking for a cab ride to the certain beach that we had in mind. All we could find was one of those open air tourism buses that was giving a whole island tour. The guide kept trying to sell us the tour. Being strong minded as we are, we said “no, just a ride thanks.” Finally with only two seats left on the tour he agreed to give us a ride to the beach. He would even discount his tour to us since it was just a ride. We agreed and enjoyed a very informative ride to the beach where we had a beautiful day. As honeymoons go, we had booked months in advance. We made a small deposit which was followed by plenty of time to put aside money each month, like free financing. This is still typical today. You can book up to two years in advance for a couple hundred bucks, pay the rest just 90 days before the trip.

Maybe some of you remember the TV show The Love Boat. Princess Cruises is the original Love Boat cruise line who still today is offering a “Come Back New” experience. That’s because it’s true. There’s almost nothing more romantic than cruising. That must be why Rob and I do a honeymoon almost every year. Cruising is actually like that Love Boat experience romance, relaxation, pampering - coupled with as much or little adventure as your heart desires. Today there are so many options. You can propose, marry or renew your vows. Give us a call to learn more. Whether you are celebrating new beginnings or need to re-ignite the fire in your relationship as best-selling author Pico Iyer says, “We travel, initially, to lose ourselves, and we travel, next, to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again— to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more.” 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.

Giving Back

Running Route 66 without gas Fire & Iron By Allen Penticoff Contributor

A

road trip is the classic American adventure. Ruth and I recently went on a long one to Florida via North Carolina ourselves. But the quintessential American road trip is to cruise along Route 66 (most pronounce it “root” 66). This two-lane highway stretching from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California via a southwesterly route was established November 11, 1926 (and officially ended 6/27/85) and has since become a legend. Used as an evacuation highway by families fleeing the Midwestern dust storms of the 1930s for the sunny California valleys, it was the precursor to the interstate highway system. As a major transportation lifeline, it developed many interesting gas stations and kitschy motels along the way. In 1946, songwriter Bobby Troup and his wife Cynthia started out on a ten-day road trip from Pennsylvania on Highway 40. Much of their trip was on Route 66 as they headed to California seeking fame and fortune in Hollywood. During the trip he composed the

now famous song “Get Your Kicks on Route 66.” Cynthia came up with the title for the tune. The King Cole Trio was the first of many artists to record this lyrical travelogue. In the 1960s there was also a Route 66 television show, lending even more credence to the legend. Countless travelers and adventures have since taken the path less traveled and followed all or parts of Route 66 to wander through often unchanged countryside. On the Illinois stretch, you’ll pass between a lot of cornfields. Recently the state of Illinois has added a new twist and attraction to the trip. You can now travel from Chicago to St. Louis in your electric car with charging stations along the way in Plainfield, Dwight, Pontiac, Normal, Lincoln, Springfield, Carlinsville and Edwardsville. The state plans to have the charging stations in operation by September 2015. Many are already in place.

If you own a Tesla S, you can probably make the trip with one stop in Springfield for recharging, but if you own one of the many other electric cars that do not have the Tesla’s battery capacity, then you’ll need to make more frequent stops to recharge. The planned recharging stations will have at least one DC fast charger (480 volts DC – which the Nissan Leaf, Tesla S and other electric cars can use). Some plug-in hybrids such as the Chevy Volt can’t use the DC fast charger, so Level 2 240-volt chargers will be available as well as standard Level 1 240-volt chargers. Obviously there is not a huge immediate demand for folks road-tripping Route 66 in their Nissan Leafs. These charging stations are in urban areas where electric vehicle infrastructure is in need of expansion. The city of Normal, Illinois has an aggressive plan to provide this infrastructure and provides incentives for electric car ownership – and thus has many more electric cars per capita than other Illinois cities. I’d love to take the Route 66 road trip. But I’ll think I’ll take my convertible Mazda Miata rather than our Chevy Volt. The Volt’s highway electric only range is about 40 miles give or take a bit depending on temperature, and its onboard charging system cannot take advantage of fast chargers – so it would be a very slow trip on electricity for us. But travelers with other pure electric cars may well take advantage of these stations to make the trip or just to go back and forth from own city to the other. The slower pace of the two-lane highway is more in tune with conserving electric car driving range too. The electric road-trippers will also be smelling the sweet smell of fresh cut hay and corn ready to be detasseled rather than jostling with big trucks barreling down the interstate. A slower paced trip can be a sublime experience rather than just another chore. I know; I enjoy them.

GAUGE

From Page 4

“The new gauge has been up and running for almost a week,” continued Lucas, “I made a call to ComEd today because it has not been in spec since it’s been running.” Spec stands for “Specification of the Permit” to operate the dam which requires ComEd to maintain the level of the river at the correct recreational level.

Former Freeport Mayor George Gaulrapp has replaced Paul Callighan as the public spokesman for ComEd for the Northern Illinois Region. Lucas asserted, “Gaulrapp has lot to learn. He needs to learn the proper water spec according to the 1975 operating permit for the dam.” Gaulapp says he does knows what that level is: “We are 700 feet above sea level, and then it’s 701.75.”

Lucas asserts The Illinois Dept. of Natural Resources (IDNR) is in charge of that permit, and the IDNR’s Office of Water Resources was not available to confirm Lucas’ assertion. “When the new gauge was installed, I called both Callighan and Gaulrapp, and said their gauge at the dam should be calibrated to the new gauge,” Lucas said, “And I told them they can see that online at rockriverhomeowners. org. We have all four area gauges on one page. Paul Callighan always said to me, ‘Gee, Steve I don’t know why your number off a static gauge is different than our dam gauge reading.’ The reason for that could be that Paul could never tell me the last time their dam gauge had been calibrated, if ever. Now, they can just go to the new gauge, and calibrate it. I don’t know why they haven’t done that yet. The dam’s spillway was completely cleaned last fall, so all readings should be accurate.” Gaulrapp replied, “I had three conversations with different folks about the river levels today. I had to get a hold of the right person to get down there and adjust the gates, and he is on his way as we speak. He went out there. I respond.”

“ComEd always says the dam is not for flood control. But during the summer when they keep the dam gates open, the river level is dangerously low for a recreational pool with high speed boats towing skiers, or just traveling the river. Then there are the various boat docks up and down the Rock River, including the Rockford Park District docks, that are stops for the Forest City Queen and boaters in general. If the river is too low they can run aground. The river level at the Rockford Marina/Prairie Street Brewhouse is now at August drought level. With the new gauge, that is inexcusable. However an environmental clean up is going on at the old power plant and its old coal pits. Could ComEd be keeping the river low for its own benefit? “I can’t speculate on that; we have a cleanup in progress. We are not artificially keeping the river high or low. I am and will fully cooperate with Steve and his organizations. And I am ready to cooperate and learn as we go. I look forward to meeting Steve and everyone at the Rockford Marina,” Gaulrapp concluded.

It is a completely self-contained unit, uploading water levels by satellite feed every 15 minutes. It is powered by a solar panel and connected to the USGS system. Photo by Steve Lucas

Swedish American employees raise over $61,000 for tornado relief

Staff Report Swedish American, a division of UW Health, raised over $61,000 for families devastated by the tornadoes on April 9 thanks to the help of employees and the Swedish American Foundation. Employees were asked to make monetary donations April 13 through April 17, with the Swedish American Foundation and Swedish American Hospital matching all funds raised. The Foundation split the donations between the Rochelle Community Foundation and DeKalb Community foundation and presented the money on Wednesday. “Our employees have some of the biggest hearts around and we are so thrilled to announce we collected more than $61,000 for individuals and families who need it most,” says Laura Wilkinson, director of the Swedish American Foundation. “Swedish American strongly cares for its community and this is just one way we can help our neighbors recover and rebuild after tragedy.” In addition to the monetary donations Swedish American’s Rochelle Clinic served as a drop off site for donated items.

CHAMPAIGN — The U.S. will make little progress toward changing the predominately white-male face of its science and technology workforce until higher education addresses the attitudes, behaviors and structural practices that undermine minority students’ access and success at college, a new study suggests. Protecting national economic prosperity has been federal officials’ rationale for implementing programs to increase the numbers of U.S. youth preparing for careers in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) sectors. However, underrepresented students will remain a trickle in the STEM-fields pipeline until postsecondary educators’ and policymakers’ motivation changes from economics to ensuring equal opportunity, according to the study’s author, education policy professor Lorenzo D. Baber of the University of Illinois. “In the 1950s when Sputnik happened, and the federal government made the decision to invest more in research and utilizing universities, our higher education structure was very segregated,” Baber said. “Students of color weren’t able to participate in the development of STEM fields. The economic rationale is important, and obviously brings more people to the table, but we also need to recognize that increasing diversity in STEM is a social justice issue. We need to think about remedying past discrimination in STEM fields along with the economic rationale. I don’t think we have to choose between them; we can have both.” Baber interviewed 32 administrators of diversity programs at 10 public research universities in the U.S. – predominately white institutions that award nearly 10 percent of all bachelor degrees in STEM fields conferred by four-year publics nationwide, as well as about 4.5 percent of STEM degrees earned by minorities. According to these administrators, executive officers at their universities focus primarily on building compositional diversity – recruiting targeted numbers of minority students – for their STEM programs, rather than tackling the complex challenges of changing systemic inequalities and marginalizing attitudes, Baber said. While amassing critical numbers of underrepresented students is important, achieving enrollment targets does little to improve the problems in the campus culture that affect students and contribute to their noncompletion of degrees, Baber said. “You can have compositional diversity without necessarily having a diverse community or culture,” Baber said. “The focus on diversity in STEM education has been very much at the level of individual access for underrepresented populations. While programs focused on individual students provide some access, they don’t address the structural factors – like

admissions policies, teaching practices and faculty-student relationships – that shape students’ experiences and influence patterns of inequality.” When recruitment goals are not achieved, or minority students fail academically, these outcomes are attributed to individual lack of merit or interest by underrepresented populations, rather than marginalizing practices and attitudes, Baber wrote. During campus visits, the research team “found little evidence of a consistent, longitudinal investment in equity initiatives that addressed structural barriers, such as department climate and/or faculty awareness of diversity issues in STEM education,” according to the paper, published in The Review of Higher Education. Program directors expressed frustration with the cost-benefit approach taken by executive officers, who expect measurable benefits, such as increased enrollment and improved persistence to degree, to justify investments in diversity initiatives. Directors described struggling to piece together budgets while their superiors blocked their access to external funding sources that were supportive of diversity activities. Frequently underfunded and disproportionately targeted for elimination, diversity programs received top-level administrators’ support only if these initiatives did not interfere with institutional policies and the overall revenue-generating efforts of academic units, program directors told the researchers. Beyond small core groups of faculty members from underrepresented groups, program directors perceived a general lack of support from many faculty and staff members, unless prompted by agencies such as the National Science Foundation. Underrepresented faculty members often experience a “cultural tax” – disproportionate pressure to engage with diversity programs and represent their departments as the outcomes of these initiatives. However, faculty engagement is often viewed as “trivial” or as “charity,” and needs to be attached to traditional rewards and incentives, such as tenure and promotion decisions, to prompt broader faculty participation, Baber said. Data for Baber’s analyses were drawn from the STEM Trends in Enrollment and Persistence for Underrepresented Populations (STEP-UP) research project at the U. of I., which was funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and the NSF. Baber’s research team included education professor William T. Trent and postdoctoral research fellow Casey George-Jackson, principal investigator and project coordinator of STEP-UP, respectively; and graduate students Erin L. Castro, Mariana G. Martinez, Blanca Rincon, Kimberly Walker and Montrischa M. Williams.

New event at Blackhawk Farms allows anyone to be a racer

By Doug Halberstadt

Most exciting two minutes in sports finally here

Columnist

Starting next Tuesday afternoon the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) is removing the air of exclusivity from race circuits with the new SCCA Track Night in America Driven by Tire Rack. The program will take place at Blackhawk Farms Raceway in South Beloit from 3-9 p.m. The program is designed to allow anyone 18 or older access to a racing circuit. Participants aren’t required to have any previous track experience. The only requirements are a valid driver’s license, a helmet and a street car in good working condition. No race cars are permitted. “Track Night in America is, simply, about fun with cars,” Heyward Wagner, SCCA Director of Experiential Programs, said. “Traditional road courses have always been a bit of a secret society. This program is all about removing the mystery, eliminating hurdles and opening the doors so everyone can come play. Whether you’re a driver, friend or just hanging out, there is an experience for you at SCCA Track Night in America Driven by Tire Rack.” Matt Edmonds, Tire Rack Vice President, said “Track Night in America is that opportunity to take automotive enthusiasts and ignite them, making them true driving enthusiasts like we are. Let them see that they can enjoy their car’s

performance in a safe environment. This is the chance to get on a track and experience their vehicle and improve their driving skills. For years many drivers have asked the question, ‘I wonder what it would be like to put on a helmet and feel the thrill of driving on the pavement reserved for racers?’” This is the answer to that question. Drivers will be divided into novice, intermediate or advanced groups. This will help assure that on track time will remain fun for all drivers. The cost is $150 per entrant and grants three 20-minute sessions on track, as well as access to SCCA driving instructors. Admission is free for those wishing to hang out and enjoy the festivities or display cherished rides, and a leisurely track parade lap is offered during events for all guests. For more information or to register, visit TrackNightinAmerica.com. In case you can’t make it next Tuesday, the SCCA will be back at Blackhawk on June 2, July 7 and August 4.

Professional athletes are automatically part of a pretty select group. On the first Saturday in May every year 20 of the most unique professional athletes from around the world come together to form a group that qualifies as one of the most elite in all of sports. They are only eligible once in their lifetime to compete in this event. These athletes have to be in the best shape of their young lives. First and foremost they must be able to run fast. But that’s not all they need. They also have to have a unique balance of stamina and endurance to compliment their quickness. One of the remarkable things about those requirement is, it’s mandatory that they train and be fully prepared for this single day while still being only three years old. Sounds nearly impossible doesn’t it? It would be if we were talking about human athletes. Instead, I’m talking about the 20 thoroughbred race horses that will compete in the 141st running of the Kentucky Derby this Saturday. This is the premier horse race in the United States and is the first leg of the American

Triple Crown. The Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes are the other two races. The Kentucky Derby has come to be known as “The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports” or “The Fastest Two Minutes in Sports” separating it from any other horse race in this country. This year’s field claims to be one of the strongest in decades. Many horse racing experts and handicappers have singled out American Pharoah as this year’s early favorite. He is expected to be challenged by Dortmund, Carpe Diem, Frosted, Bolo and El Kabeir. Any one of those horses could come away draped in the rose blanket awarded to the winner. Or it could go to one of the lesser known field horses. It’s happened as recently as 2009 when Mine That Bird left the gate at 50-1 odds and finished ahead of all of the favorites. He was ridden by two time derby winner Calvin Borel. This year Borel’s mount is El Kabeir. The uncertainty of the race is definitely part of the overall excitement. I’m putting two dollars on an American Pharoah/Dortmund perfecta and a two dollar long shot bet on Keen Ice. Post time for this year’s race is approximately 5:24 p.m. Hopefully by 5:30 or so, I’ll be standing in line to collect my winnings.

T

he White Sox won two series this past week but are still dead-last in the American League in runs scored thanks to several black holes in their lineups. The people–might–demand solutions! Are there any?

Adam Eaton & Melky Cabrera

Well, you can’t do a thing about this! The Melk-Man is signed through 2017 and Adam Eaton is...I think he has more guaranteed years in Chicago than Rahm Emanuel at this point. There’s no solution except play them and hope they get better. Both were more or less acquired because there’s nothing of substance manning the outfield in the White Sox farm system. Cabrera’s contact rate is fine, he took three walks Sunday to put himself back to his career averages. He just hasn’t put a charge into anything yet (.029 ISO) and a summer in the Cell should take care of that. Statistically, Eaton looks like it’s a pure BABIP issue. He’s 100 points below last year and 75 points below his career mark. There’s been a teamwide power shortage that I wouldn’t necessarily want to exclude him from, but dinks and doinks are also his life’s work. Most observers have noticed an unusual lack of approach from Eaton. He’s frittered away a month before, most noticeably when he came off the DL in May determined to pull the Sox out of their hole and hit .224/.237/.241 with 15 strikeouts and a single walk. He’s recovered before; he’s young.

Adam LaRoche

At 35, LaRoche is at Konerko age, where it can’t be ruled out that he transitions from cagey veteran to completely washed-up seemingly overnight, which is why starting the year with 27 whiffs in 74 plate appearances is very eye-opening. But a lot of terror could be controlled if the Sox stopped putting a guy who hasn’t been playable against lefties since 2012... against lefties. LaRoche was touting a .463 OPS against them going into Sunday, well past the threshold where “any friggin’ right-handed dude” would be an improvement.

Conor Gillaspie

Here’s a guy in a jam. Gillaspie has been nearly completely shielded from left-handed pitching and has responded with a .557 OPS and a 26.1 K percentage that suggest he’s getting attacked in a way he doesn’t have a quick answer for. That would be bad enough, but Gillaspie doesn’t have the pedigree to encourage the Sox to wait him out, and his own claim to a job is mashing righties. Gordon Beckham can hit like crap too and field better while doing it, so can Emilio Bonifacio. Matt

Davidson probably needs to crush the minors for a half season before he deserves a chance, but is another reason Conor won’t get any comfort. I say he has another week of unmitigated scuffling before a slow bleed of his right-handed at-bats to Beckham begins.

Avisail Garcia

A week ago he was a bright spot, then he went seven for his last 30 with 11 strikeouts. For a slump, the numbers could be worse, but Garcia’s approach is absolutely dreadful at the moment, and really discouraging to see at this point in his development. He’d probably need to be flirting with the Mendoza line at the All-Star Break before a trade deadline patch-up is considered. Garcia is only 23, so stretches of complete confusion are not verboten or shocking, but ugh goodness gracious, take a pitch, my man.

Micah Johnson

While we’re talking about people not putting a charge into the ball, Micah is slugging .286. There’s precedent in his minor league profile for slap-hitting, but he probably needs to bump that ISO into Adam Eaton territory--I cannot believe I am aspiring for someone to slug like Adam Eaton--if he wants to have a career. Johnson is less than 50 plate appearances into his major league career, so at this point we’re just eye-testing to see if he looks overmatched, which he does not. I do not know what kind of confidence anyone taking the second base job can have if it’s just going to be a spin cycle of still-adjusting youngsters trying to happen upon an immediate hot streak, so he should get some time, but Carlos Sanchez’s gaudy (albeit completely ridiculous--.500 BABIP, 26.2% K-rate) will keep him in position to usurp Johnson if he doesn’t pick it up mid-season. Beckham’s been too busy at third to trouble Johnson so far, and Bonifacio is just having a weirdly disconnected beginning to the season. Unsurprisingly, the overall thesis is that the Sox have to wait and play through it, since the season is only three weeks old. There are some cases where Robin Ventura should stop aiming and firing at his own foot, and we’re only a few weeks away from being REALLY mad about it, but mostly we have to take heart in that the massively upgraded offense has been completely awful and the season has not died already.

Tales from the Trough

‘Hogs open series with a bang, jump out to 2-0 lead in Texas By Todd Reicher Exclusive to TRRT

After a four-year hiatus the Rockford IceHogs have returned to the Calder Cup Playoffs and have returned as a team poised for a deep run. Rockford took the first two games on the road in the best-of-five first round of the playoffs. Game number one was on Friday, April 24 in Cedar Park, Texas, and it was a familiar face– Spencer Abbott–igniting the Rockford offense, scoring the first goal of the game. Just 17 seconds after Rockford earned their first power play opportunity of the game Abbott scored on a perfect one-time feed from Ryan Hartman; 6:23 into the contest Rockford was up 1-0. Midway through the period Rockford was ahead 8-1 on shots as the team carried the momentum through the early stages. Texas took over the reins for a brief portion of the first but Michael Leighton and the Rockford defense would not allow any markers, giving the ‘Hogs a 1-0 lead after a physical first period. The Stars tied up the contest late in the second period on a questionable non-call from the officiating crew. Earlier in the game the officials had been quick to blow a play dead around either goaltender but this time they swallowed their whistles allowing Curtis McKenzie to pot the first marker for Texas. Leighton appeared to have the puck covered and McKenzie rushed toward the back side of the net slashing the stick away from Stephen Johns as the puck slipped out from under Leighton. McKenzie found the puck and lifted it over a sprawled Johns to knot the game at one. Rookie defenseman Julius Honka gave Texas their first lead of the series 4:24 into the third period with a power play goal. However, Rockford was quick to respond with a second Abbott goal just over four minutes later to even the score once again. The goal came with one second remaining on a 5-on-3 power play. IceHogs defenseman Kirill Gotovets, with his seventh shot on goal of the game, pinched in deep towards the faceoff circles as Phillip Danault found him wide open to snap a shot past Jussi Rynnas to give Rockford the lead once again. An empty net tally by Hartman with 1:04 remaining in regulation sealed a 4-2 win for Rockford. After the goal McKenzie was flagged for cross-checking and also handed a 10-minute game misconduct for unsportmanlike conduct. The victory was Rockford’s first Calder Cup playoff win in almost seven years when Rockford beat the Chicago Wolves. All game the Stars were trying to get under the skin of the IceHogs. Whether it was finishing checks, hacking at Leighton after the whistle, or just general pushing and shoving, the Stars were trying to agitate Rockford but the ‘Hogs were extremely disciplined and it showed on the scoreboard.

The following night both teams met for game two and once again Rockford came out of the gates hot. Just shy of the halfway mark of the first period Garrett Ross gave Rockford a 1-0 lead. Ross flipped in a rebound from a Brandon Mashinter shot at 9:28 of the period. With under two minutes remaining in the period Mashinter set a drop pass for Tanner Karo and the rookie winger kept his hot streak going, firing the rubber past Jack Campbell putting Rockford up by a pair after 20 minutes. Once again it was Rockford controlling the pace in the first period outshooting Texas 11-4 on top of the two goal lead. Rockford killed off two second period penalties and were unable to convert on their own power play attempt in the middle frame, but the ‘Hogs worked hard to retain a two goal lead after two periods of play. Texas laid 16 shots on Leighton compared to the IceHogs eight. Leighton remained solid and kept the Stars off the board. Leighton’s only goal against in the game came just past the midway point of the final period to cut the Rockford lead in half. A Brett Richie shot was caught underneath Leighton but the veteran netminder was unable to locate the loose change. Leighton lay on his back to cover it but the on-ice official ruled it as a goal. After a lengthy review the goal stood and Texas was on the board. A Derek Meech high-sticking penalty proved costly as Peter Regin buried a perfect backdoor pass from Johns with 3:43 remaining in the game. Campbell was pulled with over two minutes left in regulation but Mashinter tallied his third point of the night by chipping the puck into an empty net with 1:50 left in the game, giving Rockford the 4-1 win. The series now shifts to Rockford where the IceHogs will have three chances to win one game and the series against the Stars, beginning tonight at 7 p.m. at the BMO Center. The final two games of the first round, if necessary, are scheduled for Friday and Saturday.
