BLACKHAWKS HOLD ON

WILDLIFE SECRETS REVEALED

FLINT CRISIS GETS BOOST

Actor Jesse Williams, “Creed” director Ryan Coogler and about a dozen other celebrities kicked off a #JusticeForFlint event Sunday in a fundraiser for Flint, Michigan, residents affected by lead-contaminated water. The benefit included performances by Janelle Monae and Stevie Wonder, and it occurred simultaneously with the 88th annual Academy Awards, which were boycotted by many black stars after nominees were announced, sparking controversy for a lack of diversity.

BOISE, Idaho – Solar-powered trackers on wings have recorded California condors soaring to 15,000 feet, while locators attached to humpback whales have revealed 1,000-foot dives to underwater mountains. And GPS collars on Yellowstone grizzly bears are giving new insights into one of the most studied large carnivore populations in the world. Technological advances in recent years have allowed what could be the most inquisitive Earth dweller of them all, humans, to invent more ingenious tracking devices to find out what their fellow inhabitants are up to.

Scientists say the trove of information thanks to ever smaller, tougher and more powerful tracking devices is leading to discoveries that could be used to make better wildlife and habitat management decisions. The devices also are revealing the secret lives of hard-to-study animals.

LOCAL CENTER AIMS TO HELP HOMELESS

Old Woodstock firehouse provides shelter, shower, services

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Wednesday morning, 57-year-old Greg Fairbanks stepped out of the shower at the Old Firehouse Assistance Center in Woodstock and waited in the former fire station locker room to get a free haircut.

For the past 10 years, Fairbanks has been in and out of homelessness, he said, living in different places around McHenry County and at the Public Action to Deliver Shelter church sites.

“I just wasn’t motivated to do anything because I was just comfortable,” Fairbanks said. “… This is different.”

How to At the Old Firehelp house Assistance Center, homeless people Anyone can come and go as interested in they please from 8 a.m. volunteering to 6 p.m. Wednesdays. can call The building, at the pastor Tom corner of West South Rogers at and South Throop 815-236-9411. streets, provides a place to rest, eat and make contact with service providers from around the county.

Previously, a homeless person needing services would have to go to each provider individually, said Sue Rose, community services director with the McHenry County Housing Authority and co-founder of the new center. The new model brings the service providers all to one place.

Rose said a representative from the Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing, Salvation Army, Thresholds and McHenry County Housing Authority come every week, and other agencies come as needed.

“There’s a lot of opportunities in

this county that I just haven’t taken advantage of,” Fairbanks said.

The center opened Jan. 20, after the city offered the building for free, using no financial or personnel resources of its own, Woodstock Mayor Brian Sager has said.

The building is used about three days a week by the Special Education District of McHenry County’s transition program. Tom Rogers, pastor at Redeemer Lutheran Church in

Woodstock and co-founder of the center, said the center expects to expand its days and hours in May, when SEDOM no longer will be using the building.

Much of what they’re doing at the Old Firehouse Assistance Center falls in step with the McHenry County Continuum of Care to End Homelessness’s new strategic plan, where

ERROL ALDEN

n WHO IS HE? Marengo man who recently retired as the American Academy of Pediatrics executive director and CEO n FAMILY: Wife, Judi; sons, Jeff, Curtis and Noel; and daughters, Chanda Curtis and Emily Schultheis n FAVORITE FOOD: Anything with dairy

MARENGO – Although 74-year-old Marengo resident Errol Alden recently retired from his position as executive director and CEO with the American Academy of Pediatrics, his work in the field isn’t over.

Alden’s long list of positions held, articles published and awards won started with his undergraduate and graduate education at Ohio State University, where he always was interested in going to medical school.

From there, Alden went on to his postgraduate training in pediatrics at the Madigan Army Medical Center in Tacoma, Washington, and neonatology fellowship at the University of Washington, Seattle.

For the past 29 years, he’s lived on a dairy farm in Marengo, where some of his five children and 13 foster children were raised. Alden has worked on everything from the recommendation that babies should sleep on their back, to research that showed children do best with two parents.

“I’m a firm believer in most adulthood disease has its origin in childhood,” Alden said, so discoveries in this field can result in years added on to people’s lives.

Now, after leaving the academy, he plans to continue his work with the International Pediatric Association by running for president of it. Northwest Herald reporter Hannah Prokop sat down with Alden at his farm in Marengo to find out about his work in pediatrics.

Prokop: What is it that drew you to this field, and why did you stay in it?

Alden: Well, I was drawn to pediatrics

because I like working with children. And the field has changed dramatically since I started. In the ’50s and ’60s, we started to see a lot of infectious disease. So when I started medical school, they were just at that time beginning to see the end of the polio wards, the iron lungs, but then we had the vaccine for polio that stopped that.

Then, we were seeing a lot of meningitis – now we have vaccines for all that.

So the field has changed dramatically from one of very infectious diseases – pneumonia, meningitis – to now one

Matthew Apgar – mapgar@shawmedia.com

Errol Alden poses for a portrait Feb. 11 in Marengo. Alden is a retired CEO of the American Academy of Pediatrics. where we’re seeing more behavioral-type things. Autism, ADHD. So the problems with children and the medical problems have changed rather dramatically.

they trained regional, then the regional trained at the local hospitals, so the nurse educator at the hospital would be the one teaching.

Prokop: What’s challenging about that?

Prokop: So how long did that take to Alden: Well, children, as you know, they spread it not only to this country but other don’t stay the same. They grow or they countries? die. So, I like the change part of it. And Alden: It took off amazingly well from then it’s very interesting, as that’s when the brain is developing. So, in those first 3 to 5 years of age, you really can’t separate their education from medicine. ... If you don’t learn, you’re not going to do well. ...

We know now that if you can’t read by the third grade, you’re in big trouble, so what do we need to do ahead of time? Now we know – and the academy was part of that [research] – that reading to the babies is so critical right in that first year of age. So, all those things with the development in the brain I was particularly involved.

Prokop: What was the most important or influential to you of the programs that you started at the American Academy of Pediatrics?

Alden: Probably our life support, our Neonatal Resuscitation Program.

Prokop: How was that started?

Alden: I brought that to the academy

in 1987; and at that time, the different places around the country, there was no standard way of doing resuscitation. ... We didn’t even routinely have somebody at deliveries trained in resuscitation. So, the neonatal resuscitation is now the standard in every hospital delivering babies in this country. And not only that ... but it’s now the standard in over 120 countries in the world, translated into 29 languages. ... What I did is I took the program to the academy; then we’d begin to train pediatricians all over the country and nurses, then it goes down. We’d train national faculty,

about 1987 when it started to probably around 1995 or so, when it really got to be in the smaller hospitals. ... One of the most impressive places we went was China. So, it’s now the standard for newborn resuscitation in China, and they said it dropped their mortality by 50 percent.

Prokop: Was there any particular person that stands out where you feel like they really benefited from the resuscitation program?

Alden: In China, they brought in several

families whose child had been resuscitated.

Prokop: What did you hear from the families?

Alden: They were so extraordinarily

pleased to be there and show off their babies, and it just really worked well.

Prokop: What did you think when you saw the babies?

Alden: Something that you’re fascinat-

ed by, when you can see that it’s made a difference, makes you feel good. One of the most interesting things was it was 3 a.m., and I was at home, and I got a call from a medical student. ... He was on his rotation as a medical student with me, and I put him through it, and he was working in a big hospital, and he was the only one who could resuscitate. And so he called me and said all that practice paid off. Because with a baby not breathing, it creates chaos, and you’ve got to be calm, and you’ve got to go about it the right way.

Improvements to Snapper Field to be delayed until fall

By CAITLIN SWIECA

cswieca@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Planned improvements to Snapper Field will be delayed until fall after ambiguity in the village’s proposal led to confusion among bidders.

Public Works Director Bob Mitchard said at Tuesday’s Committee of the Whole meeting the village had six qualified bidders for the project but “clarity errors” about the work needed for the stormwater system led to a wide range of estimates.

“The bidders were extremely confused, and that was evident in the numbers that came back,” Mitchard said.

“They were not all bidding on the same items.

• SHELTER

Continued from page A3 the end goal is to end homelessness, Rogers said.

For the past few weeks, about 20 people have been coming on Wednesdays Rogers said, and so far three people have found or are on their way toward finding permanent housing.

Rose said they have had guests from ages 3 to 70.

“What has been exciting to me, we’re serving people who don’t use any service,” Rose said. “They’re not going to PADS. So we’re certainly serving people who are using the church sites, but we are also assisting people who don’t.”

Willow Creek Church in Crystal Lake offers Monday daytime hours from October through April, and Redeemer Lutheran Church in Woodstock has Thursday daytime hours from November through April.

Area churches and McHenry County PADS, which merged with Pioneer Center, host the homeless overnight October through April.

Unlike some homeless centers, guests at the firehouse do not have to take a Breathalyzer test before entering. Anyone is welcome, as long as they’re well-behaved and not putting others at risk, Rose said.

“It’s important because substance abuse is an issue with people who are homeless, and if we breathalyzed, we wouldn’t be able to serve the people who need us most,” Rose said.

There have been discussions to

“We could’ve made an award by looking at the numbers a bit, but that made us uncomfortable. We did not want contractors coming back to this committee and claiming we were unfair in our process.”

The project to upgrade the park, which sits on Longwood Drive south of Algonquin Road, is estimated to cost $426,000. It was presented to the Committee of the Whole at a September meeting.

The plan will include upgrades to drainage, landscaping and the current basketball/hockey rink.

It also will add a new entrance path, an extension of the pool deck to connect it to the basketball court, new seating areas and a path that will run through the park and connect with the

make the building a fixed-site, yearround homeless shelter, but for now that’s only in the planning stages.

The setup of the center will change, too, Rose said. Currently, the shower and locker room take up much of the first floor, and the upstairs has a kitchen, office, more bathrooms and a common area.

After SEDOM moves out, organizers hope to create a separate sleeping area for men and women, Rose said. Now, there are a few mats on the floor.

Rogers said they’ve seen an “amazing outpouring” of support from volunteers donating their money and time to the center, but they could always use more people who are willing to serve.

Volunteers can contact Rogers at 815-236-9411.

existing playground.

The village will re-bid the project with a start date of Sept. 5.

The work should take about 10 weeks, and Mitchard said he was confident it would be finished before next winter.

The village initially had planned to get the work done before the pool opened, but the delay meant it would be difficult to finish the work that quickly.

“Because this is fairly complex work, we were afraid if we would go past the opening date of the pool, we would have a lot of dirt and a lot of mess and a lot of problems keeping the pool open and meeting the criteria of the Illinois Public Health Department,” Mitchard said.

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – The things you do for others this year will not go unnoticed. Your unique contributions and innovative ways of handling legal, financial and health issues will put you in tip-top shape. If you form alliances with people just as eager to collaborate and contribute as you are, progress will be made.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Impulsive spending will be your downfall. Look for a deal, but don’t make unnecessary purchases. Money in the bank will ease stress and lead to personal stability.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Don’t share personal or financial information. Hard work will be your

salvation and your ticket to a better position.

Romance is highlighted and will bring you closer to someone special.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Lighten up. Enjoy nature or the company of someone who shares your interests. Don’t give in to pressure or let someone goad you into a senseless argument.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Put your responsibilities first. Avoid covering for someone trying to use you to get ahead. You can advance if you don’t overload your plate while striving for perfection.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Busy yourself with promising, exciting ventures. Don’t let someone who can’t keep up hold you back. Once you reach the top, offer a helping hand.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Observe what everyone around you is doing. You can initiate personal change if it will not disturb plans that someone has already begun to put in place.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – The more you accomplish, the less time you will have to bicker with someone intent on holding you back. Do your own thing in order to gain respect and greater opportunity.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Charm, intellect and communication of your ideas will lead to good fortune and an interesting partnership. Love, excitement and adventure are in the stars.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Opt to put your time and effort into a creative endeavor or a project that should be finished. Trying to sort out a

personal matter will lead to discord.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Be wary of people who are in your face or pressuring you.

Use intelligence and kindness when dealing with others in order to outshine anyone trying to disrupt your day.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Bypass an erratic individual who has the potential to ruin your plans. You have everything you need to forge ahead without the help of anyone else. A change will do you good.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Listen to the advice of others, but don’t let anyone get in your way.

Focus on finishing what you start and bringing about changes that will lead to a new position.

Trust in your judgment.

Grappling blind

First–year coach works with blind wrestlers Story & photos by Matthew Apgar – mapgar@shawmedia.com

TOP: Karlie Swanson, a Union native and Huntley High School graduate, helps Ronnay Howard with her headgear at the Wisconsin Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired in Janesville, Wis. RIGHT: Swanson goes over wrestling moves with Howard.

Karlie Swanson helps freshman Ronnay Howard, 14, with her wrestling shoes before practice.

It was her first year coaching wrestling, but Union native Karlie Swanson hardly was new to the sport.

“I was a wrestling dummy for my brother for years, so I naturally was always on the mat,” Swanson said.

Her brother, Dominic, is a 285-pound wrestler and senior at Huntley High School, who recently placed third in the IHSA class 2A sectionals and qualified for the state tournament.

They both hold national and world records in power lifting, along with their parents, Gary and Renee.

Her power lifting records, along with her experience coaching the sport to Special Olympics athletes, helped her get the job as wrestling co-coach with Dustin Andrews at the Wisconsin Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired in

Janesville, Wisconsin, where she teaches fulltime.

Swanson sees a lot of similarities between the two sports.

“You have to have an innate fire inside of you that wants to be on that mat, that wants to get better. [Wrestling] is not a sport that is easy.

Your face is shoved into the mat, you’re sweating,” she said.

“It takes the mental ability and toughness of the best of them. That’s what you see on our mat – somebody that wants to be there, somebody who shows up, somebody who puts in 110 percent all the time.”

This season, Swanson’s wrestling program included two boys and two girls.

Coach Karlie Swanson laughs with Mani Abdul-Hameed, an undefeated wrestler at the Wisconsin Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired.

• Monday, February 29, 2016 Karlie Swanson spars with freshman wrestler Ronnay Howard. The sense of touch is vital to visually impaired athletes, especially in wrestling, which starts athletes in a neutral stance with hands touching.

Continued from page 12 One wrestler, Mani Abdul-Hameed, was undefeated against every competitor in his weight class within the North Central Association of Schools for the Blind conference, which includes schools from Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Arkansas, Iowa, Minnesota and Tennessee.

Both of his coaches expected him to win his weight class within the season-ending conference tournament in Kentucky, bringing the school its first-ever conference champion.

“If Mani wins, I’ll probably cry,” Swan-

son said at the time, smiling, already choking back tears. “I would cry as a coach. He is such a good wrestler.”

As fate would have it, Abdul-Hameed went home sick and was unable to attend the conference. Although his absence in the tournament was disappointing, Swanson noted there was another great personal achievement by one of her female wrestlers, Ronnay Howard. The freshman wrestler had not won a single match all year, but was able to get her first win that weekend.

“That made it all worth it in itself,” Swanson said. “Seeing these kids succeed is already something that is just amazing.”

Fire chief: District restructure nearly complete

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Details still are being determined regarding what cuts will be made to the Woodstock Fire Rescue District after its contract with the village of Lakewood to staff a fire station on Haligus Road was not renewed.

Woodstock Fire Rescue District Chief Ralph Webster said after the board of trustees meeting Thursday night that the only decisions still finalized are the deputy chief position being cut and Webster retiring Oct. 31.

“The delay is not a negative thing,” Webster said.

Previously, he expected details

“I think we’re going to be as strong as ever. ... Operationally, we may make some changes, but if we do that, it will be in an effort to provide better services.”

close with the final touch on what our remaining force is going to look like,” Webster said.

The closing of the Haligus Road station, which was staffed with 12 Woodstock Fire Rescue District employees, means $830,000 in cuts need to be made in the district, Webster said.

The change will result in a reduction of wages, hours and positions of parttime ranks, he said.

“I think we’re going to cover that Ralph Webster gap,” Webster said. “I think together Woodstock Fire Rescue District chief we put a pretty good plan together on cost-saving measures.”

The Woodstock Career Firefighters would be ironed out by Thursday’s IAFF Local 4813 union is working with meeting.

Webster and other board members to “I believe that we’re getting pretty “try and address a really difficult situ-

ation,” Webster said.

He expects that between March and mid-April, the board will announce its plans for how it will fill the chief position.

The restructuring of the department likely will include the addition of a few battalion chiefs to the current staff of about 80 people, Webster said.

Woodstock residents will not notice a change in services, Webster said, and the department is using this as a chance to reinvent itself.

“I think we’re going to be as strong as ever,” he said. “We’re not cutting staffing in Woodstock. Operationally, we may make some changes, but if we do that, it will be in an effort to provide better services.”

Students go to the wall for art history LOCAL HISTORY Kurt Begalka Every day, we stand witness to the fallout from the ongoing struggle between preservation and progress: Books versus Nooks, photographs versus Photoshop, oaks versus edifices – just to name a few.

But it’s not just that historical buildings are being leveled faster than ... too late. Sometimes, actually most times, the things inside the building matter just as much. Tree trunks no longer double as joists in basements or crawl spaces. And where are you going to find solid maple doors, leaded glass and brass fixtures anymore?

The walls are different, too. Many buildings, such as the McHenry County Historical Society’s headquarters, the former Union High School built in 1870, boast horsehair plaster over lath.

Unfortunately, we have not uncovered any Works Progress Administration murals – such as the 66 restored at Chicago’s Lane Tech High School. They are considered to be a public art jewel, drawing more than 500 visitors each year on student-led tours.

We certainly don’t have anything remotely approaching that archive around here … at least not yet. When the federal government launched the Works Progress Administration’s art project in 1935, did it envision the thousands of paintings and murals created would command such attention today?

That is why a little-known artistic treasure in McHenry should give us pause.

McHenry East High School’s first floor is chocked full of murals; about 100 or so, as a matter of fact. The program, which began nearly 20 years ago, was the brainchild of retired, 33year art teacher Kevin Klopfenstein.

“I wanted to reward my students who reached the fourth level. I wanted to give them an incentive that was visible … some kind of recognition that would enable them to create some kind of legacy for themselves and the art room.”

Plus, Klopfenstein said, the prospect of creating a permanent mural provided him with important leverage.

“Almost all of those kids wanted to paint a mural,” he said. “I’m a very humanistic teacher, but I still believe art is work. I think it helped some students fulfill their potential. Fourthyear art is very demanding, and this is something they could take away with them. … In sports, they have their awards night. In art, at least, it was our awards ceremony. It was a celebration for those students.”

Murals that line the walls at McHenry High School’s East Campus could be coming down.

Those murals are now threatened, however. McHenry East Principal Eric Blake has proposed painting over the murals as part of a building restoration and spruce-up. Many students are angry about it, suggesting the need for repairs is nothing more than a cover story to rid the halls of the colorful collage.

“I’ve been telling people: You wouldn’t paint over a Van Gogh, no matter what,” senior art student Jennifer Lopez said. “If you start at one end of the hallway and keep walking, you are walking through 20 years of culture.”

Blake believes it is less about history and more about creating a professional academic environment. The son of an art teacher and a self-described arts supporter, Blake said it is not his intent to whitewash all of the murals.

“I’m not an art hater. Art history is what I’m all about,” Blake said.

“But we have to have some boundaries, some parameters, for the murals.

Some are absolutely phenomenal and some are horrible. … We need to determine which of the murals rise to the level of wall worthiness. Homer Simpson with a finger in his nose is not what I want on my high school wall.”

Blake said the community has made it clear it expects School District

156 to continue using its East Campus building, which dates to 1927. That will necessitate upgrades to heating, air conditioning, plumbing and lockers – not to mention repairs to the plaster walls. Blake said he is willing to “back off” once the walls are “squared away structurally.” That most certainly will mean many of the murals will be sacrificed, and the vast majority of any new murals moving forward will have a short shelf life.

“I propose starting with a clean slate,” he said.

Allyson Kamrat, 18, confessed students “don’t feel comfortable doing a mural anymore.” Part of mural program’s allure was its sense of permanence. Painting something at the end of the school year that might be up for only a couple weeks pales by comparison.

“We want something tangible, something different,” she said. “There are murals that were painted as memorials for kids who passed away. Some of them have a really big impact. It can be a life-changing thing. I feel like getting rid of them is getting rid of a part of the school’s history. … People don’t want to get rid of this high school because it means a lot to them. It is the school they went to, that their parents and grandparents went to.”

Blake suggested taking pictures of

the murals and running those digital images on a monitor mounted inside the high-traffic rear foyer. Exceptional pieces, such as portraits of Albert Einstein and John Lennon, should be preserved for future generations.

“Some I would characterize as lifetime works. This is what I want to showcase,” Blake said. “We need to raise the bar a little bit.”

But Klopfenstein said the idea that any mural would be painted over was unfathomable.

“Why do they want white walls, instead, and every year it is just painted over? That makes no sense. If they need touching up, I’m sure the art teachers wouldn’t mind touching them up,” he said. “Art is not highly regarded unless they can show it off.”

All mural ideas are sketched first and vetted by the administration, Advance Placement Art instructor Barbara Drufke said. Most are about 18 inches square, painted using oils or acrylics.

“Those murals are one thing that makes this school look way better than it is,” Kamrat said. “I go through the hallway and I think, ‘Hey, I know the kids who painted that mural.’ It is inspiring.”

Mom of slain teen says Alvarez used her without permission

CHICAGO – The mother of a slain Chicago teenager said Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez used her in a campaign commercial without permission.

Anjanette Albert told the Chicago Sun-Times she was watching TV recently and was shocked when she saw her tear-stained face flash across the screen. Albert is the mother of Derrion Albert, a 16-year-old honors student killed in a melee outside Fenger High School in 2009. Five teens were charged and convicted in the murder.

The commercial shows Alvarez running through a neighborhood with intermittent images of her with families of victims of violence. When contacted, the

Alvarez campaign admitted Albert had not been contacted and said the ad would be pulled immediately.

Alvarez is seeking a third term as state’s attorney.

Chicago church heavily damaged by fire to be rebuilt

CHICAGO – A historical Chicago church destroyed by a fire last year will be rebuilt.

The Archdiocese of Chicago said the Shrine of Christ the King Catholic Church will be rebuilt and ownership will be transferred from the archdiocese to the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest.

The archdiocese said the institute has received sufficient funding for repairs on the historical building, which was left heavily damaged by a fire in October.

The congregation has been using a temporary worship space at a neighboring Presbyterian church since the fire.

The Coalition to Save the Shrine raised more than

recently laid off almost 200 employees, and Western Illinois said Friday it is laying off 100.

Chicago State University told all 900 employees they could be laid off, although no action is expected for at least 60 days. The school also called off spring break and moved up the end of the school year to try to stretch its money, but it still will run out of money at the end of March.

Schools also have been covering the expense of state grants for lower-income students in the absence of that money, but many community colleges say they can no longer afford the expense.

And Killeen said the situation has made top University of Illinois faculty a prime target for recruitment by outof-state schools. Requests for more pay and benefits to try to keep them have doubled over the past year, he said.

that covers salaries.

Chicago State, which caters to a low-income, predominantly black population on the city’s South Side, gets about 30 percent of its operating budget from the state. Most of the rest of its money comes from tuition, with little in the way of alternate sources, such as alumni donations that at other schools make up millions of dollars a year.

School officials said the campus will run out of money in March.

By contrast, the U of I said in January it has cash reserves to cover well over $600 million in salaries and grants for lower-income students, and plans to continue covering those costs on its own for the foreseeable future.

Community colleges’ reliance on state funding varies, too, but many get about 10 percent of their budgets. However, they also receive money from local taxes that public universities do not.

11 percent of last year’s budget for the University of Illinois’ three campuses came from the state. But with a budget of $5.6 billion, that’s still more than $600 million, and about 80 percent of

Principal files sex discrimination suit against district

HIGHLAND – A southern Illinois high school principal has filed a lawsuit claiming Highland Community Unit School District 5 has practiced sexual discrimination by unfairly paying her a smaller salary than less-qualified men.

The Belleville News Democrat reported that in the lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in East St. Louis, Karen Gauen alleges the Highland school board paid her predecessor a base salary of at least $25,000 a year more than it paid her to do the same job.

She contends the man got the salary even though he had 17 fewer years of experience as an educator and lacked Gauen’s qualifications.

In addition, the lawsuit alleges Highland paid Gauen less as the high school principal than it pays men who hold lower-level and less-responsible jobs, including assistant principal.

5 taken to hospitals after falling ill at nursing home

CHICAGO – The Illinois Department of Public Health is investigating after five residents of a Chicago nursing home fell ill and were taken to hospitals for treatment.

The incident occurred Saturday afternoon at the Continental Nursing and Rehabilitation Center on Chicago’s northwest side.

A nursing home spokesman said it wasn’t immediately clear what caused the residents to get sick, but they apparently all suffered from similar symptoms.

Continental Nursing, which has 172 residents, treats patients for a number of issues ranging from rehab and physical therapy to dialysis and hospice.

Family makes it through snowstorm for child’s transplant

CHICAGO – The parents of a Memphis 2-year-old said they now can think about their daughter’s future after she underwent a liver transplant that, at one point, was threatened by a snowstorm.

After a year waiting for a liver, Jesse and Nicholas Faris got the call Wednesday that one was available in Chicago.

The Faris family, who adopted Brooklyn from China last year, didn’t know how hard it would be to find a flight.

Jessie Faris told the Chicago Tribune that although the storm was mostly outside Chicago, flights to the city were canceled.

The Faris family finally was able to get a flight on a FedEx plane from Memphis to Chicago.

Jesse Faris said the flight was able to get the family to Lurie Children’s Hospital before a Thursday deadline.

In an upset, ‘Spotlight’ wins best picture at Oscars

By JAKE COYLE

The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – In an underdog win for a movie about an underdog profession, the newspaper drama “Spotlight” took best picture at the 88th Academy Awards on Sunday, where remarks on lack of diversity in Hollywood dominated the proceedings.

Tom McCarthy’s film about the Boston Globe’s investigative reporting on sexual abuse by Roman Catholic priests won over the favored frontier epic “The Revenant.” The well-crafted procedural, led by a strong ensemble cast, had lagged in the lead-up to the Oscars, losing ground to the flashier filmmaking of Alejandro Inarritu’s film.

But “Spotlight” – an ode to the hard-nose, methodical work of a journalism increasingly seldom practiced – took the night’s top honor despite winning only one other Oscar, for McCarthy and Josh Singer’s screenplay. Such a sparsely awarded best picture winner hasn’t happened

since 1952’s “The Greatest Show On Earth.”

After four previous misses, Leonardo DiCaprio won his first Oscar for his grunting, gruff performance in “The Revenant.” Best actress went to Brie Larson, the 26-year-old breakout of the mother-son captive drama “Room.”

“Climate change is real,” said DiCaprio. “It is happening right now. It is the most urgent threat facing our entire species. ... Let us not take our planet for granted. I do not take tonight for granted.”

Alejandro Inarritu took best director for a second straight year, a feat matched by only two other filmmakers: John Ford and Joseph L. Mankiewicz. His brutal frontier epic “The Revenant,” which came in with a leading 12 nods and the favorite for best picture, also won best cinematography for Emmanuel Lubezki. Renowned for his use of natural light in lengthy, balletic shots, Lubezki became the first cinematographer to win three times in a row (following wins for “Gravity” and “Birdman”),

and only the seventh to threepeat in Oscar history.

The night belonged to host Chris Rock, whose much-anticipated opening monologue left few disappointed. He confronted head-on the uproar over the lack of diversity in this year’s nominees, and returned to the topic throughout the show. (“We’re black,” he said after a commercial break.)

“Is Hollywood racist?

You’re damn right it’s racist,” Rock said.

Hollywood’s opportunity imbalance often overshadowed the actual awards — though “Mad Max: Fury Road” did its best to command the spotlight.

George Miller’s post-apocalyptic chase film exploded with six awards in technical categories for editing, makeup, production design, sound editing, sound mixing and costume design.

Best supporting actor went to Mark Rylance, who co-starred in Steven Spielberg’s “Bridge of Spies.” Best supporting actress went Alicia Vikander for the transgender pioneer tale “The Danish Girl.”

States cut jobless checks, add stress to unemployed

By DAVID A. LIEB

The Associated Press JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – When Demetrius White recently lost his job as a $10-an-hour forklift driver loading pallets of shampoo, he applied for unemployment benefits to help support his family.

That aid will not last as long as it once did, because White is among the first group of people affected by a new Missouri law reducing the duration of jobless benefits. His $200-a-week checks will last no more than three months – just half as long as what has typically been available.

“That’s a dramatic change, really,” White said. “Thirteen weeks, I don’t know if I’ll be able to find a job.”

States traditionally have offered up to half a year of aid for the unemployed as they search for new jobs. But since the end of the Great Recession, eight states have reduced the number of weeks that people can draw benefits, while others have cut the amount of money the unemployed can collect.

The cutbacks generally are intended to help shore up unemployment insurance trust funds, which went insolvent in 35 states after the recession that began in 2008. The changes could save hundreds of millions of dollars for businesses that pay unemployment taxes.

President Barack Obama is pushing in the opposite direction. The White House warns that states are engaging in a “damaging erosion” of unemployment benefits. Obama’s budget plan would require all states to provide at least 26 weeks of benefits while expanding coverage to more part-time and intermittent workers.

The Republican-led Congress appears unlikely to approve the president’s plan during an election year.

GOP governors and state lawmakers initiated many of the recent cutbacks to unemployment benefits. And they point to declining unemployment rates as evidence that jobs are getting easier to find.

“When there’s more jobs available, it’s kind of common sense – you shouldn’t need as long as a duration of unemployment benefits,” said Missouri Senate Majority Leader Mike Kehoe, a Republican who handled the legislation reducing benefits.

The 1935 Social Security Act prompted states to enact unemployment programs, which typically pay people about half the amount of their previous paychecks. In 1938, more than fourfifths of the states offered benefits for 16 weeks or less. But all states gradually increased their benefits to at least 26 weeks. South Carolina was the last to do so in 1968.

Indiana authorities probe three fatally shot in home The ASSOCIATED PRESS FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Authorities in Indiana are seeking information after two men and a teenager who were part of an African community were found shot to death last week inside a Fort Wayne home.

The bodies of 23-year-old Mohamedtaha Omar, 20-year-old Adam Kamel Mekki and 17-year-old Muhannad Adam Tairab were found Wednesday evening by officers responding to a “problem unknown” dispatch. Police Chief Garry Hamilton told WANE-TV each was shot multiple times, and Safety Director Rusty York said authorities don’t have any reason to believe the killings were a hate crime.

The families of the three were from central Africa and belonged to a community that is heavily Muslim, Hamilton and York told the (Fort Wayne)

Journal-Gazette. Darfur People’s Association founder and vice president Motasim Adam, who visited with the families Saturday, told The Associated Press on Sunday that Omar and Tairab were Muslim and Mekki was Christian.

Vox Media published a story Saturday that called the killings “mysterious,” prompting people on social media to question why it did not receive wider news coverage. The killings came the same week as mass shootings in Kalamazoo, Michigan; Hesston, Kansas; and near Belfair, Washington.

The residence where the bodies were found was known as a party house for teens and young adults of African descent, York told WPTA-TV. A day of remembrance started at the Islamic Center of Fort Wayne on Saturday for Omar and Tairab, who immigrated to the U.S. in the past decade, WANE-TV reported.

BAGHDAD – Militants attacked an outdoor market on Sunday in eastern Baghdad, killing at least 59 people and wounding nearly 100, officials said.

A bomb ripped through the crowded Mredi market in the Shiite district of Sadr City, a police officer said.

Minutes later, a suicide bomber blew himself up amid the crowd that had gathered at the site of the first bombing, he added.

Interior Ministry spokesman Sad Main said the bombings killed 38 people and wounded another 62.

Multiple hospital officials later increased the casualty toll to 59 dead and 95 wounded. All officials spoke on the condition of anonymity, as they were not authorized to release information.

The attack was the deadliest in a wave of recent explosions that have targeted commercial areas in and outside Baghdad.

In the town of Mahmoudiya, about 20 miles south of Baghdad, three shoppers were killed and 10 wounded

in a bomb explosion, another police officer said. Four others were killed in a separate bomb attack in Baghdad’s southern Dora neighborhood, he added.

The Islamic State-affiliated Aamaq news agency later claimed responsibility for the Sadr City bombings.

The militant Sunni Muslim group controls key areas in northern and western Iraq and regularly targets government forces, civilians and especially Shiites, whom the IS regards as heretics.

The attacks came hours after security forces repelled an attack by IS militants on the capital’s western suburb of Abu Ghraib, officials said.

Three suicide car bombers struck a security force barracks as gunmen opened fire, according to two police officers. At least 12 members of government and paramilitary security forces were killed and 35 wounded, they added. The clashes left a silo on fire, they said.

The commander of military operations in western Baghdad, Maj. Gen Saad Harbiya, said the situation is “under control” and a local curfew has been imposed.

Battle House Offers Law Enforcement Officers Unique Training Facility SPONSORED BY

By Denise Freese Battle House Laser Combat is an entertainment destination with multiple uses.

Not only does the facility provide a realistic, top-notch military-style laser combat experience in an expansive, multi-layer building, it doubles as a unique training ground for law enforcement officers looking for a way to create different scenarios like ones they may encounter on the job.

In the real world, law enforcement officers are drawn into situations they can’t predict. They don’t know if a situation that requires them to draw and utilize their weapons will be outdoors or indoors, in a home or shopping mall, on a highway or in a forest.

That unpredictability is difficult to train for, but Battle House Laser Combat makes their facility available so that officers can experience different scenarios and situations, all in a large, climate-controlled environment that helps them focus on preparation, training, and operational decision-making.

Doug Huckbody, owner of Battle House Laser Combat, enjoys welcoming the elite tactical teams that come to train in his facility. “We’ve had law enforcement officers come in for a combination training/ teambuilding day,” said Huckbody. “The Chicago FBI Swat Team brought in agents from all over the state to train together.

They brought in robots, night vision goggles, kevlar vests, shields, gas masks, and other equipment they use in real situations.”

As a veteran, and someone very familiar with combat situations and the need to provide good training for law enforcement and military officers, Huckbody is proud to offer his facility for training exercises. “We’ve had Lake County SWAT, the West Suburban Special Response Tactical Team, Police and Fire Departments, and many other elite tactical squads use our unique building for their special training,” added Huckbody. “In addition to being a fantastic laser combat facility, our building is actually designed for what law enforcement does on the job.” Huckbody invites law enforcement and public safety personnel to contact him for more information:

DUBLIN – Ireland’s election has produced a parliament full of feuding factions and no obvious road to a majority government, spurring lawmakers to warn Sunday that the country could face a protracted political deadlock followed by a second election.

For the first time in Irish electoral history, the combined popular vote Friday for Ireland’s two political heavyweights – the Fianna Fail and Fine Gael parties – fell below 50 percent as voters infuriated by austerity measures shifted their support to a Babel of anti-government voices.

The results left parliament with at least nine factions and a legion of loose-cannon independents, few of them easy partners for a coalition government, none of them numerous enough to make a difference on their own.

“There’s a sense of bewilderment, first of all. We’re a long way from sitting down together and talking about what our next options are,” said Regina Doherty, a Fine Gael lawmaker for

Meath, northwest of Dublin.

With 12 seats in Ireland’s 158-member parliament still to be filled, the ruling Fine Gael won 46 seats, longtime foe Fianna Fail 42, the Irish nationalist Sinn Fein 22 and junior government partner Labour just six. An eye-popping array of tiny parties, umbrella groups and parochial mavericks won the rest.

Leading members of Fianna Fail – which rebounded in this vote just five years after facing Enda Kenny electoral ruin for nearly bankrupting the country – said they would find it extremely hard to forge any coalition that keeps Prime Minister Enda Kenny’s Fine Gael in power.

“I’ve just fought a difficult threeweek campaign during which people said to me they want rid of this government, they don’t want Enda Kenny as taoiseach anymore,” said Fianna Fail lawmaker Willie O’Dea, using the formal Gaelic title for Ireland’s premier.

“Our supporting a Fine Gael government would be doing exactly what we told our voters we wouldn’t do.”

ANOTHER VIEW

Lawmakers shouldn’t cut out early Imagine for a moment you work in Chicago every day and commute from Northwest Indiana.

It’s not a tough scenario for many regular region commuters to envision.

Now imagine calling your boss on a Monday, noting you don’t intend to come to work Friday because a festival in the big city promises too much traffic gridlock for the commute. You’re going to start the upcoming weekend early to avoid that logistical headache.

It’s likely your boss or supervisor would tell you to plan ahead, leave early or be fired. It’s also likely you consider this scenario hypothetically silly.

But the Indiana Legislature – hired at the polls by voters to do the business of the state – is on the cusp of doing something outrageously similar.

Hoosier lawmakers recently announced they’re likely to wrap up their 2016 legislative session a few days before the mandatory March 14 adjournment date.

Why? Because the Big 10 Men’s Basketball Tournament, which runs from March 9-13, would overlap with the legislative session and the General Assembly’s slated March 14 adjournment.

It seems some lawmakers want to adjourn March 9 – or even earlier – to avoid the logistical interruptions the tournament will cause in scarce hotel rooms and other accommodations.

We feel comfortable speaking for the voting taxpayers who put these lawmakers into office with this admonition: Get to work, stay at work until the job is done, and don’t rush out early as matter of convenience for yourselves.

Logistical problems created by a basketball tournament, which should have been on our lawmakers’ collective planning radar, isn’t our problem.

Legislative “short” sessions last only about 10 weeks in the first place, and there are numerous issues deserving careful consideration.

Legislators were hired to do a job. In fact, they sought these jobs, some aggressively, through political campaigns.

Now they should aggressively go about serving the state of Indiana and not look for excuses to cut out early.

AMENDMENT

IT’S YOUR WRITE Trustee endorses Tsilimigras

To the Editor: As your elected village of Cary trustee, I wholeheartedly endorse Demetri Tsilimigras for McHenry County circuit court judge.

Demetri would bring a great deal of experience to the bench, as he has practiced in civil, family and criminal law and has a solid record of doing the right thing.

Currently, he holds the title of deputy chief of the criminal division.

He’s conducted and supervised thousands of court cases, and assists in the training of attorneys in the area of criminal prosecution.

Outside of his position in the state’s attorney’s office, he volunteers in his community, he teaches at McHenry County College, and he is a devoted husband and father.

I am proudly supporting Demetri Tsilimigras in the upcoming election and encourage others to visit his website at demetri4judge.com to learn more about his philosophy and why he is the right choice for McHenry County.

Need Schofield in Springfield

$2.5 million, I want to dwell a little longer.

Someone please tell me the person or people who were responsible for doing the billing that ended up losing $2 million is no longer employed by Pioneer Center.

As usual, the people who are supposed to be smart and in charge dropped the ball. Who suffers for their ineptitude? Well, I’ll tell you who. As usual, it’s the group-home residents and the counselors who are dedicated and work with them.

You have to look at the past to fix the future. If you don’t, the past will come back and bite you. If the state of Illinois and our wonderful governor would get off their combined dead butts and get something worked out, this could have been avoided. But they have to have a pawn, and what group is better than the handicapped?

All those senators and representatives can mouth all they want about how they support Pioneer, but, in reality, they could not give a darn. I support them because my son, Bob, is there, and I see all the hard work and care given by the caregivers.

Now if the people running the show could get it together, things could happen.

To the Editor: I stand proudly with retiring state Rep. Mike Tryon in endorsing Carolyn Schofield as the most qualified candidate to succeed him.

Choosing the right state representative, like hiring for an important leadership role in a business, should be about professional experience and leadership capabilities.

Carolyn’s experience significantly exceeds other candidates, and her strong, confident, collaborative leadership is exactly what we need in Springfield.

I’ve seen Carolyn in action on the Crystal Lake City Council and the McHenry County Board, taking on the issues that matter most and challenging her colleagues to a higher standard. She thoroughly researches every issue and fights hard for her constituents.

Don’t be fooled by hollow campaign promises and emotional appeals. Do your own research.

Carolyn Schofield is the most qualified candidate for state representative and the only longtime McHenry County resident seeking this office.

Please cast your vote for Carolyn Schofield on March 15.

VIEWS Gene Lyons sault on a federal law enforcement officer” and “threatening a federal law enforcement officer.” The first carries a 20-year sentence and $250,000 penalty; the second 10 years and $250,000.

The indictment stipulates he and his sons, Ryan and Ammon, “planned, organized, and led the assault in order to extort (government) officers into abandoning approximately 400 head of cattle that were in their lawful care and custody. In addition to conspiring among themselves to plan and execute these crimes, the defendants recruited, organized and led hundreds of other followers in using armed force against law enforcement officers in order to thwart the seizure and removal of Cliven Bundy’s cattle from federal public lands.

Bundy had trespassed on the public lands for over 20 years, refusing to obtain the legally required permits or pay the required fees to keep and graze his cattle on the land.”

We all saw the whole thing on national TV. Back in Nevada, federal officials who found themselves outnumbered 4-to-1 made a tactical decision not to risk a bloodbath over a herd of scrawny cows. At the expense of being criticized by people spoiling for a showdown, authorities apparently saw limited harm in letting Bundy declare victory while holing up at his remote desert ranch with his posse.

Capturing him wasn’t worth a single agent’s life.

Which is why it’s so important the feds’ patience paid off. Also crucial was the Oregon community’s near-unanimous rejection of the Bundy cause.

Cattle ranchers certainly can grow frustrated with government bureaucracy, but they also tend to be extremely practical people. The Bundy acolytes struck them as crackpots – their theories of constitutional law as zany as their tactics.

University of Oregon geography professor Peter Walker spent weeks documenting the local response. “At one community meeting,” he wrote, “when almost the entire leadership of the Bundy group arrived unexpectedly, citizens of Harney County stood on their feet, pointed fingers at the Bundys and chanted, ‘Go home! Go home! Go home!’”

Real cowboys, see, can’t just go gallivanting off and leave their herds.

Particularly not in winter.

Looks like that epic cowboy movie Cliven Bundy and his boys dreamed of playing starring roles in will never get made.

Thankfully, their own epic stupidity ended the fantasy less in tragedy than in farce – definitely more “Blazing Saddles” than “The Wild Bunch.”

Or was it “Cliven Bundy and the Sundance Kid” they were going for? No matter. That one ended badly for the romantic outlaws, too.

Apart from the needless death of one True Believer in a cowboy hat who committed what city folks call “suicide by cop” – announcing his determination never to be taken alive and then reaching for his pistol – the rest of Bundy’s sagebrush revolutionaries eventually surrendered without incident. Most are headed to federal prison.

The ignominious end of their occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in remote eastern Oregon should serve as an object lesson to crackpot insurrectionists across the west. No, the public won’t come rushing to your support. Local ranchers wanted nothing to do with the uprising. A bird sanctuary was a badly chosen place to make a stand. Put it this way: Millions of Americans enjoy hiking, hunting and bird-watching.

Cow-watching, not so much.

Nor have you intimidated the U.S. government. “Who are those guys?” Butch and Sundance wanted to know. But any two-bit drug dealer in Baltimore or New York could have told them you can’t go around pointing guns at federal agents and start traveling the countryside holding press conferences.

How foolish would you have to be to imagine you could? The Bundy sons vowed a bloody standoff at the Malheur refuge, and then announced a public meeting in the next county 100 miles away. Only one highway links the two places. FBI agents and Oregon state cops set up a roadblock at a remote spot and bagged the lot.

Family patriarch Cliven Bundy next announced his intention to show up in Oregon to support the remaining occupiers, but you can’t take a shooting iron on a commercial airline flight. Secure in the knowledge he and his posse would be unarmed, agents met him at the gate. They’d been waiting almost two years for the old fool to set himself a trap.

The rebel rancher might never again be seen outside a courtroom. According to a press release distributed by the U.S. Attorney in Las Vegas: “Cliven Bundy and four others were indicted by the federal grand jury today on 16 felony charges related to the armed assault against federal law enforcement officers that occurred in the Bunkerville, Nev., area on April 12, 2014.” A U.S. District Judge in Oregon denied his bail request on the grounds the 69-year-old rancher is clearly a flight risk.

The FBI grinds slow, but fine. Among the offenses Bundy’s charged with are “as-

26 BBD sufferers preoccupied with defects Dear Dr. K: The doctor says my 14-yearold daughter has something called “body dysmorphic disorder.” What is it, and can it be treated?

Dear Reader: I’ve had questions about this condition before and have consulted with my colleague Dr. Michael Miller, assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.

Dr. Miller said that body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is a condition that goes well beyond the concern about their appearance experienced by virtually all teenage girls.

Although BDD was first described in women (usually girls), it occurs also in men and boys. People who have this condition are preoccupied with what they regard as physical defects. In many cases, this concern becomes extreme and even delusional: They see bodily flaws that aren’t there.

They see themselves as puny even though they are muscle-bound from spending hours in the gym.

People with BDD often become fixated on checking their appearance and spend an inordinate amount of time grooming. They may focus on their appearance to the exclusion of everything else, including work or personal relationships.

BDD has characteristics in common with eating disorders, in which people also have a distorted image of their bodies. It also has similarities with obsessive-compulsive disorders, or OCD. Like people with these disorders, people with BDD feel fearful that some harm will come to them from the defect in their appearance. People with BDD spend more time than is reasonable trying to rid themselves of the thing they fear. The hours that people with BDD spend grooming are like the hours that people with OCD can spend cleaning themselves, when they have a fear of dirt and contamination.

People with BDD often get cosmetic

surgery or dermatology treatments in pursuit of fixes for perceived flaws. Sadly, their unrealistic expectations can lead them to feel worse, not better, since they see no improvement following the surgery or other treatment.

People with BDD are at increased risk for committing suicide as well as alcohol or drug problems. That’s because they have a high risk for also suffering from depression.

The first big step in treatment is helping your daughter recognize she has a problem.

There are several self-test questionnaires available online (just type “body dysmorphic disorder” into a search engine). I don’t know of any evidence that one is better than another. People with BDD won’t always be persuaded by the results of a self-test questionnaire, of course. However, sometimes such an objective test is more persuasive than a child’s parent.

Antidepressants like the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) fluoxetine (Prozac) can help. Other classes of drugs may treat symptoms that are common in the illness, such as delusions. Psychotherapy is helpful for milder symptoms -- in particular, a form of psychotherapy called cognitive behavioral therapy.

Above all, the goal is to help your daughter turn away from a preoccupation with her appearance and engage in treatment for underlying problems. It won’t be easy, but it may be the only way for her to achieve relief.

feel compelled to hang onto a memento of your parents’ failed, unhappy marriage. However, I do not think you should get rid of it without first offering it back to your mother. Although her apartment is small, she might want to make room for it not only because she’s sentimental, but also because it is a part of her history – like any other family album.

If she doesn’t want it back, consider offering it to another relative – aunt, uncle, etc. – or your state historical society before disposing of it.

DEAR ABBY My husband cheated on me Jeanne and told me to Phillips find somebody else. He moved in with the other woman and spread lies about me, telling my in-laws I had cheated on him. He was on probation, so I reported to his probation officer he was lying about where he was living.

He was arrested for it.

He now is incarcerated and facing a two-year prison sentence. We’re trying to work on our marriage, but I haven’t told him I’m the person who reported him to his probation officer. I’m still angry at him for cheating on me. When I write him, I tend to bring up what he did when he was out. I have told him I forgave him, but lately, I don’t even take time to respond to his letters. What should I do? – Just Plain Angry Dear Angry: You’re not writing to your husband because you are still angry with him, and this is another way of punishing him for leaving you. What you should do is ask yourself, honestly and rationally, if it’s worth it to try and get past the fact that he not only cheated, but tried to damage your reputation as well.

What you should not do, for your own safety, is tell him the person who turned him in for a parole violation was you.

Dear Abby: I don’t know what to do with my parents’ wedding album. My mother gave it to me as a gift when I was a teen, and I assume it was a coming-of-age consideration. I’m now in my 30s with a career that has me moving around frequently. I have moved once a year for at least the past five years, and I have had to pack up this album and box it every time.

I think when my mother gave it to me, she figured I would pass it on to grandchildren, but I have chosen to not reproduce. My parents’ marriage was anything but storybook. What little I remember was abusive and chaotic, and my parents split up before I reached kindergarten.

While these photos are fantastic imagery of a certain era, I do not want to move them around anymore. My father since has passed, and my mother lives in a small apartment on limited means, so I don’t want to return it to her. She also is quite sentimental, and I’m afraid handing this heirloom back to her will be disruptive.

I’m getting ready to move again and don’t want to schlep this unwanted item to yet another location. Any advice? – Breaking With The

Found East Side of Wonder Lake on Wed, 1/20.

815-382-7726 Steve Jobs said, “Quality is more important than quantity. One home run is much better than two doubles.”

However, at the bridge table, you are often better placed with a two-suited hand than with a one-suiter, because you get twice the chance to find a fit with your partner.

For the next two weeks, we are going to look at handling two-suiters in various situations.

If you open one of your higher-ranking five-card suit, and partner immediately raises, you should immediately upgrade your hand.

In this deal, North is right to make a limit raise of three spades. He counts one shortage point for each doubleton. Then South, with such a strong side suit, starts wondering about a grand slam; if partner has the spade ace-queen and diamond ace, South rates to take all of the tricks. But he cannot immediately use Blackwood, because he does not have a diamond control. South control-bids four clubs, then, when partner returns the compliment with four diamonds, South launches Roman Key Card Blackwood. When North shows two aces and denies the spade queen, South settles for the small slam.

After West leads the diamond king, how should declarer plan the play?

Since the opponents have established a diamond trick, South cannot afford to lose the lead until he has discarded dummy’s diamond five.

So, he should cash the spade ace and king, then start running clubs, and discard that diamond on the third round. Here, it is a home run.

You DO NOT Have to Suffer From Knee Pain Any Longer!

KNEE PAIN?

NEW FDA APPROVED TREATMENT PROVEN TO RELIEVE KNEE PAIN

Over 100 million Americans suffer from knee and joint pain? This pain accounts for 25 percent of all visits to primary care physicians and half of all anti-inflammatory drug prescriptions.Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you could get rid of your knee pain? Where would you go, what would you do?

What would you give for a day, a week or a lifetime of pain-free mobility? We are pleased to announce that knee pain sufferers don’t have to wait any longer to get the most advanced, non-surgical, FDA approved treatment. If you suffer from any degree of knee pain, we invite you to regain control of your life by visiting Wellness Institute of Illinois, a state-of-the-art medical facility.

WHAT IS OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA)?

Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis. In osteoarthritis, the surface layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows the bones under the cartilage to rub together, resulting in pain, swelling and loss of motion of the joint. Although in some people it progresses quickly, in most individuals joint damage develops gradually over years.

WHAT ELSE IS AVAILABLE TO TREAT KNEE PAIN?

After careful study and several trials, the FDA approved a new treatment aimed at helping those with knee pain. This new treatment is a high-tech answer for all those who think that surgery, dietary supplements and prescription medications are the only option to eliminate knee pain.

HOW DOES THIS TREATMENT WORK?

We use diagnostic ultrasound, allowing the doctor to pinpoint problem areas with extreme accuracy. A viscosupplement is then injected, and the healing process begins. Viscosupplementation bonds with naturally occurring joint fluid to create a lubricating and cushioning layer. It reduces pain, inflammation and swelling of the joint. Patients compare the treatment to getting a shot at the doctor’s office, and report little pain or discomfort.

WHAT IS INJECTED INTO THE KNEE?

Hyaluronic acid is similar to substances that occur naturally in your joint. The outside of the joint (joint capsule) is comprised of a sturdy, fibrous tissue. The lining of the joint capsule contains synovial cells, which secrete a thick, viscous synovial fluid.

Hyaluronic acid contributes to the viscous nature of the joint fluid, nourishes the cartilage, helps eliminate waste products, lubricates the joint and acts as a shock absorber inside the joint.Hyaluronic acid is reduced or lost from those who suffer from osteoarthritis. It is similar to changing the oil in your car.

If your car were to run low on oil, you would have some serious wear and tear on the moving parts.

The final buzzer sounded in the Class 3A St. Viator Sectional championship, and the Johnsburg girls basketball reserves raced off the bench to swarm the court and the Skyhawks’ starters.

It’s a moment Johnsburg coach Brad Frey won’t soon forget. (He has a picture of it saved as his desktop background.)

Johnsburg’s 38-32 victory over St. Viator on Thursday gave the Skyhawks their fourth sectional title and the first since 2010. It also marked Johnsburg’s 28th win, tying a school record set in 2006 and matched in 2007.

The lead changed hands five times in the fourth quarter, and the Skyhawks (28-3) had to battle without senior Jazza Johns for the last six minutes of the game after she fouled out.

No matter, the Skyhawks emerged victorious behind the leadership of

Supersectional pairings CLASS 3A Concordia University Supersectional Monday Johnsburg vs. Chicago North Lawndale Charter, 7 p.m.

CLASS 4A Fremd Supersectional Monday Huntley vs. Fremd, 7 p.m.

Aannah Interrante (15 points), who didn’t miss in eight attempts at the foul line, Kayla Stefka (six points, seven rebounds), Cortland Sommerfeldt (two assists, two steals), and Dani McCauley (career-high seven points, nine rebounds), among others.

“From the first girl off the bench to the last girl and in between, they are very proud of what they’ve accomplished,” Frey said. “We’ve had practices where the starters have been up-

set that the [reserves] are making them work so hard. But ... they (the reserves) were more excited than anybody on the planet when we won.”

On Monday, the Skyhawks have a chance to advance to the state semifinals for the first time in school history at Illinois State’s Redbird Arena in Normal when Johnsburg meets Chicago North Lawndale Charter in a Concordia University Supersectional at 7 p.m.

Johnsburg is one of two local teams still standing. In Class 4A, Huntley will face Fremd in a Fremd Supersectional at the same time.

Frey expects an up-tempo game against North Lawndale, which had 95and 85-point performances in regionals.

Johnsburg has been just as effective on the defensive end, holding opponents to totals in the 20s twice in the postseason with a 2-3 zone, including a 49-22 win over Carmel in a Carmel Regional final.

Continued from page 2

“They’re very athletic, they’re fast, and they play really well together,” Frey said of North Lawndale. “They put some points on the board. Do we have enough firepower to keep up with them? I don’t know. But I know as far as a comfort level goes, we’re comfortable playing at that speed.”

What Frey and the Skyhawks do know is they will approach the game the same way they have every game in a record-breaking season.

That means blasting music, coordinating themes in practice and having their usual fun and games – such as when Interrante and assistant Chris O’Niel play 1-on-1 for bragging rights.

“Our girls, they’re a relaxed group of girls,” Frey said. “They’re kind of loosey-goosey. It’s just basketball to them. It’s pretty special what’s going on, but that’s just part of their norm.

They don’t know that it’s a big deal, and that’s kind of cool. We’re just going out and having fun.”

Huntley, too, has made plenty of history.

The Red Raiders (30-3), winners of 18 straight games, are appearing in their third supersectional in four years and

Fremd (28-2), ranked No. 1 in Class 4A, for the second year in a row at 7 p.m.

Fremd ended Huntley’s season a year ago with a 50-34 win. This year, Fremd is hosting.

Illinois commit Ali Andrews, who Proud Sponsor of owns a McHenry County scoring reAthlete of the Week cord (girls or boys) with 2,528 points, and fellow senior Kayla Barreto are Inside Girls Basketball hoping to make it to the state semifinals after experiencing it as freshmen, ATHLETE OF THE WEEK when Huntley finished fourth.

Now that we have, 2,500 points in her career. we just have to practice really hard and The Illinois signee added play good defense.”

She’s the area’s leading scorer at 21.9 points a game. Tworek (Harvard) and Brianna Lewis – Alex Kantecki (Texas Southern).

Lewis is “the engine that makes akantecki@shawmedia.com them go,” Huntley coach Steve Raethz said, but the Raiders also will have to own a school-record 30 wins. They face compete with a lot of size. Three play-

ers on the Vikings’ roster are listed at 6-foot-2.

“They are the biggest team that we’ll face this year,” said Raethz, who is 304197 in 17 seasons at Huntley. “One of the keys for us is keeping them off the glass and not giving up any second-chance opportunities. They’re a team that doesn’t have a lot of holes. We really need to be precise with our execution.

Offensively, it’s about maximizing possessions and making each one count.”

Andrews and the Raiders made a run in last year’s supersectional after trailing by 13 points at halftime, cutting Fremd’s lead to six before the game got away in the fourth. They’ll need a complete team effort, like Huntley got in a 49-38 DeKalb Sectional final win over Hononegah on Thursday.

Barreto (team-leading 44 3s), Clausen (9.9 points a game), Paige Renkosik (7.8), Maddy Moffett (6.5) and Lexi Lowitzki all figure to be important parts of the game plan for Huntley.

“We’re all really great friends, and we have a bunch of other friends down the road that hopefully we’ll get to play against,” Lowitzki said after the Raiders beat Hononegah. “It’s our second one (sectional title) of our big group of friends, so we just have to look forward to the next game and keep moving forward.”

4 BOYS BASKETBALL: CLASS 3A/4A POSTSEASON PREVIEW

BOYS BASKETBALL

PR, Jacobs confident

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com Prairie Ridge starts one player taller than 6-foot-1 and is not blessed with high-fliers throwing down dunks.

The Wolves have adept shooters, but no one averages as many as 13 points a game.

Jacobs coach Jimmy Roberts offered this about Prairie Ridge after the Wolves defeated his 21-6 Golden Eagles, 57-38, on Thursday.

“They’re a bunch of solid, solid basketball players, not overly athletic or overly talented, but really good basketball players,” Roberts said.

Prairie Ridge (23-3) heads into the Class 4A Crystal Lake South Regional this week as the top seed, with a 12game winning streak. More importantly, the Wolves play as a cohesive unit at a level few teams reach.

“It’s all about the team,” said forward Christopher Bradshaw, Prairie Ridge’s tallest starter at 6-4. “The togetherness is really good, spreading the ball, and everyone knows their roles. It’s just great to have a team that plays together like this.”

The same thing goes for the defense, where the Wolves smother foes with their trapping zone.

“Everybody’s kind of moving as one, and it’s a lot of fun because they think they have that extra pass and there’s always another [defender] right there,” guard Logan Card said.

Regional tournaments tip off around the state Monday in Classes 3A and 4A. Prairie Ridge, with the second-most wins in school history, is looking for its first regional championship since 2007.

Wolves coach Corky Card has enjoyed this group for more reasons than having his son Logan as point guard.

“Our kids really play well together,” Corky Card said. “When people make runs, they just don’t let things bother them. They just keep playing.

We have some good shooters, and sometimes we make a lot of 3-pointers and sometimes we don’t. This group has just found a way to make things happen. They’re just fun to watch; they really play well together.”

Guard Payton Otto (12.5 points) and Bradshaw (12.3) lead the scoring.

Bradshaw is fourth in the area in 3s with 60. But players such as Brian Dorn, Cory Lamb or Kyle Loeding also will be among the top scorers in any game.

Prairie Ridge won the Fox Valley Conference Fox Division for the second consecutive season, going 12-0 in

Jacobs won the FVC Valley Division at 10-0 for the second straight year but could not handle the Wolves’ intense pressure in Thursday’s FVC first-place crossover game.

“It’s nice to have this atmosphere this week with the size of the crowd and intensity,” Corky Card said. “We got good pressure on the ball and flew around.”

BOUNCING BACK

Jacobs has the second-highest seed in the Class 4A South Elgin Regional and will meet the winner between Larkin and Huntley in Wednesday’s semifinal. The Eagles struggled to score against Prairie Ridge, with the exception of 6-9 center Cameron Krutwig, but Roberts felt they could fix their problems.

“We’re going to be fine,” he said.

“We’ll be just fine.”

Mainly what Jacobs needs to do is make outside shots. Krutwig requires so much attention inside that other Eagles consistently find open outside shots.

BACK-TO-BACK?

Marengo received good news Wednesday when point guard Michael Volkening learned he had no ligament tears in his right knee after the Indians’ 64-38 loss to Burlington Central. Indians coach Nate Wright planned on being cautious with Volkening, a 6-2 junior averaging 14.9 points a game, but it seemed likely Volkening would make it back this week.

Marengo is trying to win back-toback regional titles for the first time since 1997 and 1998. Senior guard Zach Knobloch sits at 1,800 career points and has 377 career 3s, third on the IHSA all-time list.

The Indians (21-7) are the No. 2 seed in Sub-Sectional B of the Class 3A Woodstock North Sectional and will play in the Woodstock Regional. Woodstock is the No. 3 seed, Genoa-Kingston is No. 5 in that tournament.

Tuesday’s loss to Burlington was Marengo’s lowest point total and largest losing margin of the season, but the Indians were confident they can rebound. They won 11 consecutive games before that loss.

“We need to come to practice with intensity, get in each others’ faces and be competing all practice,” Knobloch said. “It’s not taking plays off, taking care of the basketball, and we’ll be all right.”

QUALITY LOSS

Marian Central finished its regular season Wednesday with a 68-65 overtime loss to Niles Notre Dame, which had won five consecutive games against impressive opponents.

The Hurricanes – 16-9 and the No. 4 seed in Sub-Sectional B of the Woodstock North Sectional – drew positives from that loss as they head to the Freeport Regional.

“That’s really encouraging for us,” said guard Adam Pischke, who passed 1,700 career points Wednesday. “They beat a bunch of good teams. It gives us confidence going forward.”

If Marian gets past Freeport on Wednesday, the Hurricanes likely would see top seed Boylan in the championship. Marian coach Curtis Price said his team is prepared.

“We play one of the tougher schedules out here,” Price said. “We competed in most of our games. We’ve only had two blowout [losses]. We’re right there.”

NFL Business Academy hopes to offer assistance

By LARRY LAGE

nities that will be presented to them at Michigan,” Way said.

Len Middleton, a faculty co-director of the program, hopes the opposite happens for some of the participants.

“If after the week is over and someone says, ‘I know that is not for me,’ then that to me is one of the successful outcomes,” said Middleton, a professor of strategy and entrepreneurship at Michigan.

Lawrence Jackson is one of the few former players taking advantage of the opportunity that Way said was offered to all of the NFL’s current and retired players, whose expenses other than travel are covered as part of the league’s collective bargaining agreement with the union.

Jackson was drafted out of USC in the first round of the 2008 draft by Seattle. The former defensive end spent two seasons with the Seahawks and three years with the Detroit Lions before retiring in 2012. His post-playing career has included investing in real estate and a company that sells crushed fruit.

NASCAR SPRINT CUP: ATLANTA

Johnson wins No. 76 to match Earnhardt Drivers tied for 7th in career Cup victories

By PAUL NEWBERRY The Associated Press

HAMPTON, Ga. – Jimmie Johnson smoked his tires crossing the finish line, celebrating another win at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Then he realized what it really meant.

Johnson stuck his hand out of the No. 48 car, holding up three fingers.

It was his little tribute to the Intimidator.

Johnson used pit strategy and a late yellow to claim the 76th victory of his career Sunday, pulling even with the late Dale Earnhardt on the NASCAR career list. Only six drivers have won more.

“This is special for sure,” said Johnson, who began his Cup career shortly after Earnhardt was killed in a wreck on the last lap of the 2001 Daytona 500.

“There was a big void in my mind not having a chance to race against him. I was literally a handful of months away from having the opportunity. To tie him today, for me personally, gives me a little bit of attachment to the great Dale Earnhardt.”

Johnson won the race in overtime, crossing the line under yellow after the only wreck of the day. In a poignant touch, teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr. was the runner-up.

“If he’s gonna tie that record, I’m certainly glad I got to run second,” Junior said. “I think my dad would’ve thought

the world of him.”

Kevin Harvick led 131 laps, more than anyone else, but ceded the lead after he made his last green-flag pit stop nine laps after Johnson. The No. 48 car made a quicker stop and wound up with about a 14-second lead, then watched it fade away as Harvick gave chase on newer tires.

Harvick was about 5 seconds behind when Ryan Newman cut a tire and spun on the front stretch with three laps to go, bringing out only the second yellow flag of the race. With overtime looming, everyone came to the pits for new tires.

Johnson returned to the track still leading, and the victory was his when that crash on the backstretch took out four cars.

Johnson credited crew chief Chad Knaus for calling the early pit stop, a strategy that allowed him to get past Harvick.

“It was definitely a gutsy call,” Johnson said. “The 4 car (Harvick) was awfully tough. It was going to take strategy to get by him.”

For Harvick, it was another Atlanta heartache. He spun his tires on the final restart and wound up sixth.

Harvick has led more than 100 laps in four of his past five races at the 1.54-mile trioval, but he hasn’t won here since the spring event in 2001 – in his third race after taking over at Richard Childress Racing after Earnhardt’s death.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – The NFL, hoping to help current and former players transition to life after football, is kicking off its first business academy Monday at the University of Michigan.

“When you leave something you’ve been doing your entire life, especially if it’s a high-profile job, it’s a challenge when you retire,” said Charles Way, vice president of NFL player engagement and former New York Giants fullback. “We’re just trying to make that time in players’ lives a little smoother.”

Green Bay Packers linebacker Julius Peppers is among the 30-plus active players who are expected to attend fiveday program that will include instruction and hands-on experiences with management, entrepreneurship, franchising, product design and real estate.

“The academy is set up to help the players identify if they have a passion or liking for one of the career opportu-

8 COLLEGE BASKETBALL: MIDWEST ROUNDUP

Nunn, Hill power Illini past Gophers Wisconsin wins 10th out of past 11 The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHAMPAIGN – Kendrick Nunn scored 25, Malcolm Hill added 22 points with seven rebounds and five assists, and Illinois beat Minnesota, 84-71, Sunday night.

The Illini opened the second half on a 29-8 run for a 61-48 lead and never looked back.

Freshman Jalen Coleman-Lands hit five 3-pointers and finished with 18 points for Illinois (13-16, 5-11 Big Ten).

Jordan Murphy had 22 points and 10 rebounds for Minnesota (8-20, 2-14). Stephon Sharp had a career-high 19 points, and Joey King added 17.

Minnesota used an 11-0 run to open the game and had a 40-32 halftime lead, but Illinois outscored the Golden Gophers 52-31 in the second half.

Minnesota was playing without leading scorer Nate Mason (13.8 points a game), as well as guards Kevin Dorsey and Dupree McBrayer, who all missed Sunday’s game for violations of team rules.

Wisconsin 68, Michigan 57: At Madison, Wisconsin, Bronson Koenig scored 19 points, and freshman forward Ethan Happ helped trigger a second-half surge with clutch plays on both ends of the floor in a victory over Michigan.

Happ added 12 points and six rebounds for the Badgers (19-10, 11-5 Big Ten), who have won 10 of their past 11 games to surge back to the top half of the conference standings.

Wisconsin seems to be a near-lock for the NCAA tournament now with a resume that includes wins over four ranked opponents and the victory against the short-handed but gritty Wolverines.

Zak Irvin scored 14 points for Michigan (20-10, 10-7).

No. 6 Michigan St. 88, Penn St. 57: At East Lansing, Michigan, Denzel Valentine had 19 points, eight rebounds and six assists for Michigan State in a rout of Penn State.

The Spartans (24-5, 11-5 Big Ten) have won four straight and eight of nine.

The Nittany Lions (15-14, 6-10) had won three straight and four of five, including victories over then-No. 4 Iowa and then-No. 22 Indiana.

was ejected with 4:53 left in the first half when he was called for two technical fouls within the same rant.

The Spartans led, 52-27, at halftime.

Penn State’s Shep Garner had 22 points.

Ohio St. 68, No. 8 Iowa 64: At Columbus, Ohio, Marc Loving scored 25 points, including both ends of a 1-and-1 with less than 2 seconds to go, as Ohio State rallied from a late deficit to upset Iowa.

Keita Bates-Diop added 19 points, and Kam Williams scored 11 for the Buckeyes, who ended the game on a 12-2 run.

After Bates-Diop preserved a twopoint lead for Ohio State (19-11, 11-6 Big Ten) by blocking Mike Gesell’s layup with less than 5 seconds to go, Loving made the free throws to ice the game.

Gesell and Jarrod Uthoff led Iowa (208, 11-5) with 16 points apiece, and Peter Jok had 12.

Milwaukee 98, Illinois-Chicago 85:

At Milwaukee, JJ Panoske made four 3-pointers and scored 20 points, Jordan Johnson set a school record with 15 assists, and Milwaukee defeated Illinois-Chicago in a regular-season finale.

As the fifth seed, Milwaukee (19-12, 10-8) will play No. 8 Northern Kentucky in the Horizon League tournament Saturday, and No. 10 UIC (5-24, 3-15) will face No. 3 Wright State.

Dikembe Dixson scored 29 points, and Gabe Snider, with six 3-pointers, had a career-high 20 points for the Flames.

BLACKHAWKS 3, CAPITALS 2

‘Q’ likes what he sees in victory

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com

AP photo

Blackhawks center Dennis Rasmussen celebrate Sunday after scoring a goal against the Washington Capitals during the third period at the United Center. The Hawks won, 3-2.

So far, so good. Even without Weise (visa issues) and Hossa (out because of injury until next weekend, at least), the Hawks immediately looked like a deeper, more dangerous team against the Capitals, with a true four-line rotation.

They withstood an early barrage during a lopsided first period Quenneville said was “hard to watch” – the Capitals outshot the Hawks, 17-6 – then held on for a hard-fought victory in a scintillating

game between the two favorites to reach the Stanley Cup Final.

Of course, for all the excitement generated by the recent acquisitions, the Hawks still are Jonathan Toews’ and Patrick Kane’s team. Kane scored 31 seconds after Marcus Johansson’s first-period power-play goal staked the Capitals to an early 1-0 lead, and Toews added a power-play goal – off a beautiful feed from Teravainen, who played one of his

BLACKHAWKS NOTES

Odd men out? Not necessarily

By MARK POTASH

mpotash@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Back-end forwards Dennis Rasmussen, Richard Panik and Brandon Mashinter look like odd men out after trade-deadline deals put the Blackhawks in position to re-establish the stellar Andrew Desjardins-Marcus Kruger-Andrew Shaw fourth line that worked so well in last year’s playoffs.

But Rasmussen, Panik and Mashinter gave coach Joel Quenneville something to think about with a little chemistry of their own that produced Rasmussen’s game-winning goal in the Hawks’ 3-2 victory over the Washington Capitals on Sunday at the United Center.

With the Hawks leading, 2-1, in the third period, Panik was hemmed along the boards to the left of the Capitals’ net when he kicked a perfect

pass to Rasmussen in the low slot for a one-timer that beat Braden Holtby to give the Hawks a 3-1 lead at the 12:47 mark of the period. Mashinter also assisted on the goal.

“I thought it was a beautiful pass – one of the best passes we’ve seen all year,” Quenneville said.

The Desjardins-Kruger-Shaw line probably will be the Hawks’ best option. But Panik and Rasmussen showed off their own cohesion on the key goal.

“I saw he had the puck on his skate and I kind of realized he’s going to make that play,” Rasmussen said.

“I’ve seen it done in practice. So I was ready for it.”

Rasmussen’s goal was his fourth of the year, but his first in 30 games since scoring Dec. 19 against the Sabres to give him three goals in his first seven games with the Hawks.

As for the roster crunch, Rasmussen can count the numbers, but doesn’t feel any extra pressure to produce.

“I always feel like I have to perform,” he said. “That’s how I’ve felt my whole life. That doesn’t change anything. I see it as a positive thing.

It’s going to make our team better. And we have a good chance to win more games.”

Numbers game: Ladd wore his familiar No. 16 jersey after Kruger gave it up. Kruger will wear No. 22. That usually comes at a price.

“We haven’t figured that out yet,” Ladd said. “He was nice enough to offer a number. Really classy on his part.

We’ll have to figure out the payment soon.”

Newcomer Dale Weise wore No. 22 with the Canadiens, so Kruger might have an opportunity for another payoff when Weise arrives.

Rangers trade for Hurricanes’ Eric Staal, give up Saarela, picks RALEIGH, N.C. – Eric Staal gets to play with another brother, and the New York Rangers are loading up for the playoffs.

The Rangers acquired Carolina’s captain and the face of the Hurricanes franchise on Sunday, a day before the trade deadline.

In exchange for Staal, the Rangers sent center Aleksi Saarela, who is playing in his native Finland, to Carolina along with New York’s second-round picks in each of the next two drafts.

Rangers general manager Jeff Gorton said the Hurricanes retained a portion of Staal’s $8.25 million cap hit, and New York has enough financial flexibility to add another “small-salary player if we wanted to.”

The Rangers trail first-place Washington by 16 points in the Metropolitan Division standings.

“We felt like he was one of the best, if not the best, player available on the market to give us what we’re looking for in our top nine,” Gorton said. “And that’s why we made the move.”

– The Associated Press

• Monday, February 29, 2016

CHICAGO – Joel Quenneville isn’t even sure of Tomas Fleischmann’s nickname yet, let alone where he and the other new Blackhawks will be in the lineup when the playoffs roll around. But the Hawks’ coach certainly has an idea.

“Flash, or Fleisch, whatever you want to call him,” he said. “I think they call him Flash.”

Quenneville also thinks he’ll be a perfect fit on Teuvo Teravainen’s left wing, with Dale Weise slotting in on the right side. And he thinks Teravainen is best suited to be a center with some offensive-minded linemates. And he thinks Andrew Ladd is the ideal left wing for Jonathan Toews and Marian Hossa.

And he thinks Sunday’s 3-2 win over the league-leading Washington Capitals was a good first step in shaping his newlook roster – seven of the 12 forwards on the ice Sunday were not on the team last year – into what he wants it to be come April.

“It’s almost like at the start of the season,” Quenneville said. “You forecast what you’d like to see the lines be.”

best games after getting the clear vote of confidence from management – to give the Hawks a 2-1 lead.

Dennis Rasmussen scored off a soccer-style kick-pass from Richard Panik to make it 3-1 in the third, and that stood as the game-winning goal after the Capitals drew to within one goal on Evgeny Kuznetsov’s 5-on-3 goal with 3:21 to go in the game.

The wealth of talent in Chicago is one of the most attractive aspects of the Hawks for incoming players. Like Brad Richards and Antoine Vermette before him, Ladd is going from The Guy in Winnipeg to just a guy in Chicago.

“I feel you come here and it’s different guys stepping up every night,” said Ladd, who had the secondary assist on Toews’ goal. “For a guy like me, I don’t feel like I have to score, and that’s a big thing for me, because I feel if I just check, a lot of good things happen. I can focus on playing that simple game.”

It was quite a first game for Ladd and Fleischmann, a nationally televised matinee and possible Stanley Cup Final preview.

But while the Hawks are jockeying with the Dallas Stars for the top seed in the Central Division and the Western Conference – the win moved the Hawks one point ahead – the final six weeks of the regular season are more about molding this thrown-together group of forwards into a cohesive, consistent unit.

10 CUBS SPRING TRAINING

Almora stronger, more confident Outfielder ‘really getting after it’

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

MESA, Ariz. – Albert Almora doesn’t have to tell anyone how big a spring this is for him, or how big a season it could be for earning a place in the middle the Cubs’ big-expectations young core.

He said it all one night after last season when he was lying in bed, checking emails, exchanging texts, reading and sending tweets, looking at instagram posts and suddenly realizing how late it was getting.

“What am I doing?” he said to himself. “I’ve got to wake up at 5 to work out. This is my career.”

He deleted all his social media apps off his phone. “Everything,” he said.

Another reason he doesn’t have to tell anyone how different this year looks to him is because he showed it as soon as he arrived in Mesa, coming to camp looking stronger and more confident – the first thing anyone in camp says they noticed when his name comes up.

“He’s just really been getting after it,” farm director Jaron Madison said.

“He’s in a really good place mentally, feels really good. I think it’s going to be a big spring training for him this year.”

Villanueva breaks right leg MESA, Ariz. – Christian Villanueva, an important part of the Cubs’ third base depth, broke his right fibula during infield practice Sunday, and the expectation is he’ll need surgery.

Villanueva, one of the better defensive third basemen in the system, was hurt when he landed wrong after leaping for a high chopper.

“It’s just crazy,” manager Joe Maddon said.

“He’s going to be out for an extended period of time. It’s just really unfortunate. This kid came in ready to go. He made a great impression on us at the end of last season – a very good infielder and he was starting to hit.”

Villanueva, 24, opened the season at Double-A Tennessee because Kris Bryant opened in Iowa, then moved up when Bryant was promoted. He AP file photo The Cubs’ Albert Almora fields a fly ball hit .257 with 20 home runs combined.

– Gordon Wittenmyer during spring training last year in Mesa, Ariz.

The season could be even bigger.

Almora already is one of the top two defensive outfielders in the Cubs’ organization (some would debate whether three-time Gold Glove winner Jason Heyward is better).

Nobody’s blocking his potential ascent to center field – with Dexter Fowler on a one-year deal and neither Jorge Soler nor Kyle Schwarber capable of playing center.

If Almora puts himself in position to win the big-league center field job next season, it could be especially huge for a playoff-caliber team in need of another big glove in its outfield and in need of its next wave of young, impact guys to arrive from the system before last

year’s rookies start hitting big arbitration paydays.

“But I’m just going out there and just trying to be me,” Almora said, “and whatever happens, happens.”

It’s clearly a different Almora this time around, more mature entering his fourth full professional season at least, maybe more focused.

That 5 a.m. wake-up call he talked about was a daily ritual this winter, kicking off mornings spent working out at the University of Miami with a trainer and big-leaguers Yonder Alonso and Manny Machado – Machado a childhood friend of Almora.

“They really pushed me,” Almora said.

But the refocus for Almora began during last season at Double-A Tennessee. After a second slow start in as many seasons, Almora credits his manager, Buddy Bailey, and a brief visit by Cubs catcher Miguel Montero on a rehab assignment for helping him to one of the strongest finishes in the Cubs’ system last year.

“Pretty much what I told him was just, ‘Take your head out of your [butt] and go play,’ ” said Montero, who also told him that as much talent as Almora has, better players have failed to succeed because of attitude. “ ‘You either play hard and come ready to play every day or you’re going to be stuck here for a long time.’

“That was pretty much it.”

Almora started hitting almost as soon as Montero left.

“I just decided, ‘Hey, listen, it’s time to go. I’ve got to prove that I’m a good baseball player,’ ” Almora said. “And I really don’t have to prove it. You think, ‘I’ve always been that guy; just do it.’

“I took that emotion on the field and tried to take it out on the pitcher every time.”

Madison said Almora has “taken control of his career” since then.

If that continues into Triple-A this year, the timing could fit well for both the Cubs and Almora sliding into a role alongside the likes of Kris Bryant, Addison Russell and Kyle Schwarber.

“This is awesome, seeing a bunch of buddies up here,” Almora said, looking around the clubhouse. “It’s something to work for.”

WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

Eaton vows to be ready for Opening Day

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

GLENDALE, Ariz. – Adam Eaton isn’t participating in outfield drills yet, and his first Cactus League game action probably will be as a designated hitter.

“But there is no, there is zero, I’ll tell you there is zero chance I will not be ready for Opening Day,” the White Sox center fielder said Sunday. “One hundred percent zero chance. I say that with confidence.”

Eaton is building strength after having arthroscopic surgery to decompress a nerve in the back of his left (throwing) shoulder in the offseason. The shoulder had bothered him since he jammed it diving for a ball in July.

“I’m sure the team will be cautious with me starting off,” Eaton said.

“There’s no reason to push it in spring training. I told them for a number of reasons, keep me healthy, keep my arm healthy, keep my legs healthy. I’m going to DH, I would imagine – I haven’t talked to Adam Eaton the team about this yet but I believe we’ll be cautious with it to get back to 100 percent.”

Eaton is on a program throwing every day, but he’s nowhere near game ready now.

“Even now, at the end of BP, he kind of lobbed it back in to get it in there, but

we’re just not going to rush him right now,” manager Robin Ventura said.

“He’s not going to play in the outfield for a while.”

The regular-season opener is five weeks and a day away, April 4 in Oakland.

Danks to start Cactus League opener:

John Danks will start the Cactus League opener Thursday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, and, based on how the spring pitching schedule is lined up now, the veteran lefty would start the Sox’s home opener against the Cleveland Indians on April 8.

Jacob Turner is slated to start the Sox’s second spring training game Friday against the Cleveland Indians.

First-round draft choice Carson Fulmer

is slated to start Saturday against the Kansas City Royals in Surprise. While Fulmer is pitching against the Royals, Quintana will start a B game against the Reds in Goodyear.

The Sox avoid pitching their starters against AL Central teams or teams they play early in the regular season in Cactus League games. Chris Sale, who will start the season opener, likely won’t pitch in a Cactus League game until March 19 as the Sox lighten his game load.

The current schedule indicates Sale will be followed in the rotation by lefthanders Jose Quintana, Carlos Rodon, right-hander Mat Latos and Danks. The Sox open the regular season with a fourgame series in Oakland.

Scott captures Honda Classic

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – Adam Scott tapped in a 30-inch par putt to win the Honda Classic on Sunday, and the smile was more relief than joy over ending the longest drought of his career.

A small measure of satisfaction might come from the silence he hopes will follow.

Yes, he still can win with a short putter.

In his third tournament since a new rule that outlaws the anchored stroke Scott used for a long putter the past five years, he made enough putts at PGA National for an even-par 70 to hold off Sergio Garcia and win for the first time since Colonial in May 2014.

Garcia made birdie on the final hole for a 71, forcing Scott to convert his short par putt.

Injured Vonn 13th in combined

SOLDEU-EL TARTER, Andorra – Hampered by a fractured left knee, Lindsey Vonn managed to extend her overall World Cup lead by placing 13th in an Alpine combined event Sunday, while Marie-Michele Gagnon of Canada took the win.

Wearing braces on both knees, the American led the competition after the super-G portion but posted only the 23rd time in the slalom run to finish 1.93 seconds behind Gagnon.

Vonn’s main rival for the overall title, Thompson wins LPGA Thailand Lara Gut of Switzerland, straddled a gate CHONBURI, Thailand – American Lexi Thompson won her seventh LPGA title after in the slalom and didn’t finish, allowing the a final-round 68 that completed a six-stroke four-time champion to extend her lead to victory over In Gee Chun of South Korea in 28 points.

Vonn crashed in Saturday’s super-G race the final round of the LPGA Thailand at the par-72 course at the Siam Country Club on after catching a spot of soft snow. She was brought down the hill on a rescue sled and Sunday.

The 21-year-old from Florida had an eagle underwent tests in a hospital.
