A Woodstock man was arrested Sunday after police said they found "psychedelic" mushrooms, cocaine, marijuana and several weapons, including a loaded firearm in his vehicle. William L. Kounanis, 65, of the 12600 block of Davis Road, remained at the McHenry County Jail Monday afternoon on a $200,000 bond. He is charged with possession with intent to deliver cocaine, possession of cocaine, possession with intent to deliver marijuana, felon in possession of a weapon, possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana. The most serious offense, possession with intent to deliver cocaine, typically is punishable by as many as 30 years in prison. Following a traffic stop, sheriff's officers found about 13 ounces of cocaine, 2 grams of psilocybin mushrooms and 3 ounces of marijuana, according to a suspected drug affidavit filed in McHenry County court. Officers estimated the street value of the seized drugs to be about $40,502. Kounanis, who previously served a prison sentence in Wisconsin, also was in possession of a loaded firearm, a switchblade knife and a baton with a spring attached, packaging materials, and $8,591 in cash, according to a motion prosecutors filed Monday. A prior felony conviction would have barred Kounanis from possessing a weapon. Kounanis had not hired a private attorney to represent him as of Monday afternoon, and McHenry County Public Defender's Office had not been appointed to the case, records show. Kounanis is scheduled to make a court appearance Wednesday at the McHenry County courthouse.

    By LINDSEY BAHR Do you have a someone in your life who plays Vulture’s Cinematrix game every morning? Or maybe they have the kitchen television turned to Turner Classic Movies all day and make a point of organizing Oscar polls at work? Hate to break it to you: They might be a hard-to-please cinephile. But while you might not want to get into a winless debate over the “Juror No.

  • These holiday gifts change the game when building fires, printing photos, watching birds and more
    South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Thursday - 11/21/2024 - 04:06 PM

    By JESSICA DAMIANO Finding the perfect gift can be daunting. The only way to truly ensure you get it right would be to ask the recipient what they want, but that wouldn’t be much fun for either of you. Luckily, there’s another tactic to help you earn a “gift whisperer” reputation: seeking out unique, practical, game-changing gifts that will truly surprise and delight. But that’s about as easy as it sounds, which is to say it’s not easy at all.

  • ‘Gladiator II’ review: Are you not moderately entertained?
    South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Thursday - 11/21/2024 - 04:06 PM

    “Gladiator II” asks the question: Are you not moderately entertained for roughly 60% of this sequel? Truly, this is a movie dependent on managed expectations and a forgiving attitude toward its tendency to overserve. More of a thrash-and-burn schlock epic than the comparatively restrained 2000 “Gladiator,” also directed by Ridley Scott, the new one recycles a fair bit of the old one’s narrative cries for freedom while tossing in some digital sharks for the flooded Colosseum and a bout of deadly sea-battle theatrics.

    South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Thursday - 11/21/2024 - 03:59 PM

    This flavor-packed sweet potato dish is for those who like to veer from the traditionalThanksgiving dishes and leave a lasting impression. Sweet potatoes coated with tahini,cumin and lemon adorn a billowy bed of Greek yogurt and feta. Studded with crimson pomegranate seeds and fresh herbs, it’s a colorful, flavorful winner. Whether served as a side for a holiday meal or as a satisfying main for a vegetarian feast, this easy dish is one that will be remembered. I like to use a variety of sweet potatoes — yams, Japanese sweet potatoes, purple sweet potatoes — to showcase different colors and textures.
