Good morning, McHenry County ...

Random thoughts: Not ‘new’ 2 years later A few random thoughts on this Tuesday morning – one day closer to a Cubs World Series victory: • I’d use the Algonquin Bypass more, as the village of Algonquin wishes, if it didn’t seemingly take 10 minutes to get a green light to turn left onto Route 31 from Klasen Road. • Contrary to a report on a local blog, the information regarding Hebron Village President John Jacobson’s termination from McHenry County College that appeared in a Chicago newspaper over the weekend was not “new information.” The Northwest Herald reported nearly two years ago Jacobson had been receiving and forwarding photos of naked children and adult pornographic images using McHenry County College’s email system when he was dismissed as a custodian there in 2013. • Patti Blagojevich said Monday she was “incredibly disappointed” the Supreme Court

MORE HISPANICS ATTENDING MCC

School launches Spanish interpreter program By ALLISON GOODRICH

agoodrich@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Jazmin Rangel of Crystal Lake was the first in her family to register for college courses. The 20-year-old McHenry County College student also was the first to deal with the complications of funding a higher education, and the first to navigate her way through unfamiliar career paths. Vice president of student government and the president of cultural support group Latinos Unidos, Rangel said being a first-generation student of immigrant parents presents a specific set of difficulties, especially when it comes to financial

aid processes and career guidance. And from her standpoint, the local college is showing some progress in handling some of those issues, but there’s still room for improvement. “I feel there is still a lack of services for the Hispanic population. MCC offers great services for students, but there are more specific problems that first-generation students have to go through,” she said, later adding, “A lot of it comes from guidance career-wise. Not having a parent or sibling who has gone through the college process is very difficult.” Ensuring such needs are met for the Hispanic

State board likely to report on county election problems by May By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmeia.com Staff from the Illinois State Board of Elections will most likely report by May on the problems that plagued the March 15 primary in McHenry County. A staff member last week visited McHenry County Clerk Mary McClellan’s office to gather information, and likely will visit again in early April after the election results are canvassed, board spokesman Jim Tenuto said. The election board in the wake of the staff member’s findings could then Rep. David make recommendations to McSweeney fix whatever the investigation concludes is lacking. “We’d offer any suggestions to avoid future problems, or to assist in any way we can,” Tenuto said. The state board announced it would investigate problems at the urging of state Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, who along with candidates, local Republican and Democratic officials and voters, have wanted answers after an election

they allege was full of problems. Problems started shortly after polls opened at 6 a.m. with some precincts having to turn away voters because the electronic poll books used to verify voter registration malfunctioned. McClellan asked for and received an emergency court order to keep the polls open another 90 minutes. However, many precincts complained that not only were they not informed of this, but also that repeated attempts to contact McClellan’s office failed – phone calls to the clerk’s office before and Mary after business hours went McClellan to a recorded message, according to numerous accounts. While McClellan said that the notice went out to all polling places via chat software on the computers, a number of accounts dispute this as well. At least two precincts closed at 7 p.m. instead of 8:30 p.m. Precinct workers and judges complained of malfunctioning equipment, and voters complained that they were turned

away, or had incomplete ballots. McClellan has defended the integrity of the results and said that steps are being taken to improve the process. Besides the poll book problem, McClellan attributed complications that she has described as minor to very high voter turnout and new laws, such as one that allows people to register to vote at the polling place on Election Day. By the time McHenry County’s neighboring counties had reported their results in the late hours of March 15, McClellan’s office had reported less than half of vote totals. It was not until the evening of March 17, almost two full days after polls closed, that a number of close races for state and local offices were decided. Tuesday is the last day for county clerks to tabulate vote-by-mail ballots postmarked by the March 15 primary date. After that, clerks have until April 5 to canvass the election results and transmit them to the state board. The March primary was the first partisan election handled under McClellan. Voters elected her in 2014 to succeed longtime clerk Kathie Schultz, who retired after 24 years in office.

Habitat for Humanity to open ReStore on Route 31 By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Habitat for Humanity will open a second home furnishing and construction materials resale store Friday to help expand the agency’s mission in McHenry County. The new ReStore will be located at 903 Front St., which also is Route 31, in McHenry. Proceeds from the 17,000-square-foot store will go toward providing affordable housing to low-income residents in McHenry County, ReStore Director Mark Peteler said. The opening comes after several successful years of the agency’s first McHenry County ReStore, which opened in Woodstock in 2013. “There’s a lot of demand,” Peteler said. “We have done extremely well in the Woodstock store in a short period of time. I anticipate McHenry is going to be a very successful store.” The new store will open in a former car dealership that has been vacant for years. Executive Director Jerry Monica said he hopes the store will produce $120,000 in net revenue, which means sales will have to hit between $350,000 and $400,000.

If you go n WHAT: Habitat for Humanity ReStore n WHEN: Open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday n WHERE: 903 Front St. (Route 31) n INFORMATION: 815-331-8153 The boost will mean an additional two homes will be completed each year, he said. “We’re hoping it’s going to generate more traffic and more sales and we’ll be able to help more people,” Monica said. Habitat for Humanity volunteers rehab or build homes that are sold with a no-interest loan to families who qualify and are willing to make a down payment. Families also must put in hundreds of hours of sweat equity and make a monthly mortgage payment. The agency completed six homes in McHenry County in 2015, Monica said. He anticipates that between 10 and 12 will be completed this year. Stores also allow the agency to move away from relying on federal money. Monica said that when he first started in 2011, about 64 percent of the agen-

cy’s $2 million to $3 million budget came from government dollars. Now the rate is about 20 percent, he said. “We’re helping people who live here,” Monica said. “It feels great that we’re getting supported.” The new store is in need of donated items such as new and used building materials and gently used hardware, furniture and appliances from individuals, retailers and contractors. The agency is not able to accept upholstered furniture, he said. Popular items include vanities, cabinets and dining room sets. Store leadership also is searching for volunteers. A team of at least 25 volunteers is needed to run a store, Peteler said. Volunteers take on roles such as customer service, cashier and donations center worker. They are trained and asked to work at least one four-hour shift a week, Peteler said. The store will open at 9 a.m. Friday. Regular retail hours will be from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday. Donation hours will be from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Anyone seeking information about donation or volunteering can call 815331-8153.

To see a video from the Marengo City Council meeting, visit NWHerald.com. “It’s just a fail-safe in case we cannot meet our goal in switching over to McHenry,” Hallman said. Hallman said he expects the cost of the dispatch service to go up about $5,000 from the estimated $114,000 that the city has paid Lake in the Hills because of an increase of call volume. Through discussions regarding the dispatch transition, Hallman said he also decided to update Marengo Police Department’s portable radios to new radios with a better digital frequency that will allow them to better connect directly with other police departments. With the portable radios currently being used, “We have dead spots,” Hallman said, “even in the basement of the City Hall here, within the middle of the high school, in a couple areas, which presented some officer safety issues.” The council approved Hallman’s request to buy 16 new Starcom 21 Motorola radios for every officer in the department for about $53,000. He said they will sell some of the old radios, which were bought in 2011, and keep some as backup. Hallman said the new radios should last longer than five years. The items were approved unanimously, with Aldermen Matt Keenum and Michael Smith absent.

MARENGO – The Marengo City Council approved on Monday an agreement for the Marengo Police Department to transition dispatch services and upgrade its radios. Marengo now will use the McHenry Police Department dispatch center, which is in the process of expanding to also include Woodstock and Harvard dispatch services in response to a state mandate to cut the number of dispatch centers in half. It currently dispatches for McHenry police, Johnsburg police, McCullom Lake police, the McHenry Township Fire Protection District, Marengo fire, Marengo rescue and Union fire. The expanded center will be called the McHenry County Northeastern Regional Communications Center, or NERCOMM. Marengo Police Chief Joseph Hallman said being united under the same dispatch center as Marengo fire and rescue played a big factor in choosing a new service. Marengo’s contract expires April 30 with Lake in the Hills, which recently decided to transfer its services to the Crystal Lake-based SEECOM. The department has a target date of May 1 to start the new agreement with McHenry, Hallman said. However, if the transition cannot be completed by then, an addendum to the agreement with Lake in the Hills also was approved by the council to extend its current services until Marengo can completely transfer services to McHenry.

NORTHWEST HERALD

John Konstantaras for Shaw Media

Candice Johnson (center), McHenry County College’s coordinator of multicultural affairs, talks Thursday with Hispanic students Leslie Garcia, 19, of Woodstock and Jazmin Rangel, 20, of Crystal Lake at McHenry County College. MCC’s Hispanic population has grown in the past few years.

Continued from page A3 population is more crucial now than it was years ago as data show MCC is seeing its fifth consecutive year of Latino student growth. According to MCC figures, the Hispanic population is the only one that has experienced continuous growth since fiscal 2011. Hispanic students made up 9.2 percent of the overall population then. Five years later, they make up nearly 20 percent, going from about 916 students to 1,905 in fiscal 2015. The growth is in line with the changing demographics of McHenry County. The Latino population is significantly ahead of other minority groups, with more than 35,200 people, or a roughly an 80 percent increase from 2000 to 2010. Coordinator of multicultural affairs Candice Johnson, who started about eight months ago, said she believes MCC is making a concerted effort to better tap into the needs of these students. “I think we’re working in a culture of continuous improvement,” Johnson said. “We’re making sure we have people who speak Spanish, and making sure that population is aware of what’s available.” Johnson this year spearheaded an effort to launch a Spanish interpreter program, which employs two student interpreters to provide services to current students, prospective students, their families, faculty and staff. Meant to ease the enrollment process, interpreters are available to interpret information from MCC staff to customers and vice versa. Leslie Garcia, 19, agreed with Rangel about the need for more Hispanic-specific services and filled one of

the two interpreter roles to help. So far, she’s only interpreted for one person, but she said it was rewarding to know she had eased the man’s mind on financial aid even slightly. “We’ve been trying to make this a much bigger thing,” said Garcia, of Woodstock. “We’re trying to get the word out to let them know that we are here to help and that they don’t have to be scared.” In the area of career development, Luisa Lauf, a bilingual counselor at the college, said she works to provide a “first-class service” to Hispanic students and parents. While Rangel acknowledged that having Lauf and the other bilingual counselor has helped, she noted the two aren’t there solely to serve the growing Hispanic population. “I don’t necessarily have an idea of what it could look like, but maybe it would help to have an adviser who focused only on Hispanic and first-generation students, helping to guide them their entire time they’re here,” she said. Rangel, who will transfer in the fall to Olivet Nazarene University to pursue a potential career in racial reconciliation, has taken it upon herself to try to be part of the solution on the non-academic side in her leadership role in Latinos Unidos. The group, which works to promote cultural awareness on campus, has organized a whole host of events this year to bring Latino students together. “It’s to have that support system that sometimes you lack at home being first-generation,” Rangel said. “Your parents support you, but don’t really understand the stresses of college, so we motivate each other to do well in our classes. “And we also bring some of our culture to campus to educate other students, get rid of misconceptions, and just celebrate our culture.”

CATHERINE M. OAKES

Nun who founded Global Catholic Network dies By JAY REEVES

The Associated Press Mother Mary Angelica, a folksy Roman Catholic nun who used a monastery garage to begin a television ministry that grew into a global religious media empire, has died. She was 92. Known to millions of viewers simply as “Mother Angelica,” the founder of the Eternal Word Television Network died Easter Sunday at the rural Alabama monastery where she lived about 45 miles north of Birmingham, according to EWTN Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Michael P. Warsaw. “Mother has always, and will always, personify EWTN, the Network which she founded. In the face of sickness and long-suffering trials, Mother’s example of joy and prayerful perseverance exemplified the Franciscan spirit she held so dear. We thank God for Mother Angelica and for the gift of her extraordinary life,” Warsaw said in a news release late Sunday. Mother Angelica had been in declining health since suffering a severe cerebral hemorrhage on Christmas Eve 2001. She never regained her full speak-

ing ability and had other, less-severe strokes through the years. Bedridden for months, Mother Angelica was placed on a feeding tube this fall as her health slowly declined, fellow nuns at Our Lady of the Angels Monastery said in an announcement released in November. Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley said in a statement Sunday that Mother Angelica will live forever in the hearts of those touched by her sermons. “On this Easter Sunday, it is only fitting that the Lord chose today to call home one of his humble servants, Mother Angelica. She devoted her life to ministry, converting untold numbers of people to the church. She left an indelible mark on Alabama, the Catholic Church and the world as a whole,” Bentley said. Although she had been out of the public eye for years and was no longer appearing on her trademark “Mother Angelica Live” show, old episodes of her show have remained a programming staple on Eternal Word. “We want you to know how much God loves you, and that’s a lot,” she told viewers at the end of an episode taped in November 2000.

She was a graduate of Jones Commercial High School in Chicago. She loved fishing, trap shooting, show dogs, gardening, flowers, crocheting and knitting. Catherine is survived by her husband, Stanley; three daughters, Darline Proberts, of Island Lake, IL; Marlene (Joseph) Schwartz, of Yorkville, IL; Dawn Rundgren, of Villa Park, IL; seven grandchildren and three great grandchildren; plus a brother, Raymond (Rita) Page of Salt Lake City, Utah.

Court refuses to hear Blagojevich appeal By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press

CHICAGO – The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday dashed one of Rod Blagojevich’s last hopes to reduce his 14-year prison sentence by refusing to hear the former Illinois governor’s appeal of his remaining corruption convictions, including his attempt to sell an appointment to the vacant Senate seat once occupied by President Barack Obama. In so doing, the justices let stand a July ruling by the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago that the Chicago Democrat crossed the line when he sought money – usually campaign cash – in exchange for naming someone to fill Obama’s seat. The justices did not explain their decision. The lower court had handed Blagojevich a largely symbolic victory by tossing five of his 18 convictions and said he should be resentenced on the 13 remaining counts. No resentencing date has been set, but it’s likely to happen this year. In its ruling last year, the 7th Circuit said that even with the dropped counts factored in, Blagojevich’s 14year sentence still may be fair. The former governor’s wife, Patti Blagojevich, said in a written statement Monday that she and the couple’s two children were “incredibly disappointed.” “This was, of course, not the outcome that Rod, our daughters Amy and Annie, had hoped and prayed for,” she

Emanuel names interim top cop with eye on challenges

CHICAGO – Eddie Johnson didn’t apply to become Chicago’s police chief, but his appointment as interim superintendent in line for the top job could address many of the issues facing Mayor Rahm Emanuel and a city reeling from a police shooting scandal. After firing the previous superintendent over the shooting, Emanuel has searched for a replacement during a spike in violent crime, low department morale and intensified scrutiny of police shootings – in particular the death of

We long for the day that he will be back home with us.” Blagojevich attorney Leonard Goodman said in a phone interview that there’s an outside chance the high court might consider a new request to hear the 59-year-old Blagojevich’s appeal after resentencing. He said that’s because one argument prosecutors made against the appeal being heard was that

resentencing and other legal steps need to play out before the court should entertain the possibility of taking on the case. “So we could consider going back to the Supreme Court again,” Goodman said. The U.S. attorney’s office in Chicago declined to comment. Blagojevich, who is in his fourth year at a federal prison in Colorado, loudly proclaimed his innocence after

Laquan McDonald, a black teen shot 16 times by a white officer. Bypassing three finalists recommended by the police board, the mayor chose an insider who will face immediate pressure to bring about change within a force he’s been part of for 27 years. Johnson was named interim chief Monday and Emanuel has asked him to apply for the job permanently. He will take over a department criticized for lax accountability on police misconduct and a “code of silence” culture that protects problem officers.

States surrounding Illinois – such as Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Indiana – take many different approaches to fair foundations, including a mix of public and private funding. Their fundraising campaigns often focus on capital projects and rely on techniques from corn dogs to decorative bricks to pay for the annual events.

Fitch lowers Chicago credit rating to 1 step above junk

CHICAGO – Chicago’s credit rating has been downgraded to one step above junk grade by Fitch Ratings after the Illinois Supreme Court struck down Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s reform plan for two city pensions. Fitch lowered Chicago’s rating from BBB+ to BBB- on Monday, increasing the cost of borrowing. Fitch said it believes Thursday’s ruling “was among the worst of the possible

his 2008 arrest, including on TV talk shows and as a contestant on “Celebrity Apprentice” when it still starred now-presidential candidate Donald Trump. Blagojevich argued before, during and after his two trials that he had merely been participating in legal, run-of-the-mill politicking. The request for the Supreme Court to consider Blagojevich’s appeal was a long shot. The high court hears only around 80 cases a year out of more than 10,000 requests and typically accepts cases that raise weighty and divisive legal issues. In their 83-page petition asking the Supreme Court to hear the appeal, defense attorneys argued that the line between the legal and illegal trading of political favors was blurred, potentially making elected officials everywhere subject to prosecution for cutting political deals. In its July ruling, the 7th Circuit said Blagojevich broke the law when he sought money for naming someone to Obama’s old seat. But it tossed counts linked to him asking for a Cabinet seat for himself. It said secretly trading favors based on politicians’ executive powers was a legitimate way to get things done for constituents. The three-judge appellate panel added that evidence on the 13 remaining counts, which included Blagojevich trying to squeeze a children’s hospital for a campaign contribution, was “overwhelming.”

Scientists study badger’s behavior in forest

ELGIN – Wildlife biologists in the Chicago suburbs are tracking a badger captured in a forest preserve and implanted with a transmitter with hopes of learning about its health, habits and behaviors. The Cook County Forest Preserve and Chicago Zoological Society, which runs Brookfield Zoo, are collaborating on the study. Cook County senior wildlife biologist Chris Anchor said he’s seen four badgers in 30 years and it’s “very unusual” to spot them in the Chicago area. He said they’re understudied in urban and suburban areas and information that could be learned “is indispensable.”

Man shot by police after drawing weapon at Capitol By ERICA WERNER

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Police shot a man on Monday after he pulled a weapon at a U.S. Capitol checkpoint as spring tourists thronged Washington, authorities said. The suspect was previously known to police, who last October arrested him for disrupting House proceedings and yelling he was a “Prophet of God.” U.S. Capitol Police identified the man as 66-year-old Larry R. Dawson of Tennessee. He was charged with assault with a deadly weapon and assault on a police officer while armed, both criminal offenses in the District of Columbia. Dawson was taken to a local hospital, where police said he was in stable but critical condition. A female bystander also suffered injuries that were not life-threatening. After his arrest last year, Dawson was issued a “stay away order” by D.C. Superior Court in October, telling him to keep away from the Capitol grounds, court documents show. The U.S. Capitol was on lockdown for about an hour Monday and the White House also was briefly locked down. As the capital teemed with spring tourists in town to view the cherry blossoms, staff members and visitors to the Capitol were rushed into offices and told to shelter in place. “We do believe this is an act of a single person who has frequented the Capitol grounds before and there is no reason to believe that

this is anything more than a criminal act,” Capitol Chief of Police Matthew R. Verderosa told reporters. He said it was unclear how many officers fired their guns. Initial reports had said an officer was injured but that proved wrong. Verderosa said the suspect’s vehicle had been found on Capitol grounds and was being seized. On Monday evening, all roads had been reopened and the U.S. Capitol complex had returned to normal operations, officials said in a statement. George Washington University Hospital spokeswoman Susan Griffiths said it had treated one patient from the Capitol incident for minor injuries and planned to release the patient shortly, but she did not identify the person. Monday’s event unfolded with Congress on recess and lawmakers back in their districts. House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., issued a statement thanking Capitol Police, as did other congressional leaders. “This evening our thoughts and prayers are with all those who faced danger today,” Ryan said. According to court documents, Dawson was arrested at the U.S. Capitol in October after he stood up and shouted Bible verses in the gallery of the House chamber. An online court record says he was charged with disorderly and disruptive conduct on the grounds of the Capitol and assaulting, resisting or interfering with a police officer. He was also ordered to stay away from the building and grounds.

Trump, Ryan clash over future of GOP The ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON – Donald Trump wants to win the White House in the fall. Paul Ryan wants to save his vision of the Republican Party for years to come. Those goals put Trump and Ryan increasingly at odds over both tone and substance as the businessman barrels toward the GOP presidential nomination. While Ryan is appealing for political civility and a party rooted in traditional conservative prin- Donald ciples, Trump is bucking Trump campaign decorum and embracing policy positions that are sharply at odds with years of GOP orthodoxy. Their starkly different visions for the Republican Party are a microcosm of the broader fissures roiling the GOP. And if Trump does become the Republican nominee, he and the House speaker’s ability to work together could be the first test of whether a party in this much turmoil can stay together. “Trump’s obviously running on issues that are contrary to conservatives and at odds with what a lot of what Paul Ryan believes,” said Peter Wehner, a former adviser to President George W. Bush. For now, Trump and Ryan are engaged largely in a cold war, with the politicians only occasionally mentioning each other by name. Ryan has picked key moments to draw implicit contrasts with Trump, including condemning the billionaire’s refusal to take responsibility for violence at his rallies. Trump will launch the next volley Tuesday when he campaigns in Ryan’s hometown of Janesville, Wisconsin, ahead of the state’s April 5 primary. Trump, in his trademark contradictory style, has both praised Ryan and ominously warned the speaker against crossing him. “Paul Ryan, I don’t know him well, but I’m sure I’m going to get along with him, and if I don’t, he’s going to have to pay a big price, OK?” Trump said after his victories on Super Tuesday. A week later, after speaking with Ryan by phone, Trump said of the speaker: “I like him a lot. I respect him a lot.” People close to Ryan say the Wisconsin lawmaker is in disbelief about Trump’s staying power. While he’s publicly vowed to support whomever his party nominates, Ryan has privately said he’s focused on trying to keep

the GOP’s House majority this fall and on fundraising for the party – leaving some friends with the impression that he would be a less-than-enthusiastic Trump backer in a general election. Looming large are Ryan’s own political ambitions. He passed on running for the White House in 2016, but some Republicans still harbor hopes that he could emerge as the nominee in a convention fight this summer if neither Trump nor Ted Cruz clinch the nomination by then. “I would be less than honest with you if I said Paul Ryan people are not mentioning a Ryan candidacy from time to time,” said Rep. Charlie Dent, a Pennsylvania Republican who meets regularly with Ryan. “Clearly there are many in Congress who see Paul Ryan as a consensus candidate.” Ryan has vigorously denied that he’s interested, although he was similarly definitive last year when he rebuffed calls to run for the speaker’s job. He’s also insists that his role as chairman of the July convention requires him to remain officially neutral despite his obvious displeasure with Trump. Yet Ryan’s refusal to fully disavow Trump has left him open to criticism that he either cares too much about keeping the real estate mogul’s enthusiastic supporters in the Republican fold or that he doesn’t fully understand the threat. “The barbarian is at the gate, and Paul Ryan wants to talk sense to him?” wrote David D. Haynes, the editorial page editor of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the largest newspaper in Ryan’s home state. Trump, in private at least, has tried to soften such dire talk. A few weeks ago, he sent Ryan a copy of a Washington Post article that he’d marked up to show his disagreement with the piece’s assertion that he was a threat to GOP orthodoxy.

That system has failed three of its last four intercept tests. The only success in that series was the most recent test, in June 2014. A congressional watchdog agency,

the Government Accountability Office, said in February that the Pentagon “has not demonstrated through flight testing that it can defend the U.S. homeland against the current missile defense threat.” Adm. William Gortney, America’s homeland defender as head of U.S. Northern Command, told Congress

Some states strategize to defund Planned Parenthood By DAVID CRARY

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Although congressional Republicans’ bid to defund Planned Parenthood was vetoed by President Barack Obama, anti-abortion activists and politicians are achieving a growing portion of their goal with an aggressive state-by-state strategy. Over the past year, more than a dozen states have sought to halt or reduce public funding for Planned Parenthood. The latest to join the offensive is Florida; GOP Gov. Rick Scott signed a bill Friday that bars Planned Parenthood from accessing state funds. Defunding has been blocked by court action in some states. But cutbacks in other states are forcing Planned Parenthood to drop contraceptive services, health screenings and other programs serving thousands of low-income women. “It’s been a non-stop assault – with devastating consequences for the patients we serve,” said Dawn Laguens, Planned Parenthood’s executive vice president. “At what point do you hit a tipping point where it has the same impact as if a federal bill had passed?” Planned Parenthood is a national tar-

get because of its role as the largest U.S. abortion provider. Federal law and the laws of most states already prevent public money from paying for abortions except in rare circumstances, but the recent defunding bills prohibit state money for any services by an organization that also provides abortions. During debate in Florida, state Sen. Aaron Bean offered this rationale: “We pay their light bill, we pay their salaries, we pay all kinds of things when the state contracts with these clinics... Let’s get Florida out of the abortion business.” Many of the measures surfaced after anti-abortion activists began releasing secretly recorded videos last July alleging that Planned Parenthood sold fetal tissue to researchers for a profit in violation of federal law. Planned Parenthood denied any wrongdoing, and investigations by several congressional panels and states have produced no evidence that it acted illegally. Despite that, some Republican governors and lawmakers have cited the videos as justification for defunding. States where defunding has been blocked by litigation include Alabama, Louisiana and Utah. In some other states, the impact of defunding may be

slight – Mississippi, for example, is pursuing that step even though Planned Parenthood received less than $1,000 in state money in each of the past five years. However, Planned Parenthood said the cuts have had tangible impact in several states. It cites Indiana, saying funding cuts led to closure of a Planned Parenthood clinic that was the only HIV testing center in Scott County – the subsequent site of an HIV epidemic.

Texas

Texas was one of the first states to target Planned Parenthood’s funding, saying it would not send Medicaid funds to organizations that provided abortions. The Republican-led state government culminated a multiyear effort by ousting Planned Parenthood from the Texas Women’s Health Program in 2013 and opting to fund the program entirely with state money so it would not run afoul of federal law. Dr. Paul Fine, medical director of Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast, said the move affected health screenings and contraceptive services for more than 13,000 low-income women, many of them in areas with limited health care alternatives.

Charitable donations covered some of the lost funding, Fine said, but overall Planned Parenthood has seen a shift to more patients paying in cash or relying on commercial health insurance. John Seago, legislative director of Texas Right To Life, acknowledged there was a dip in the number of women served after Planned Parenthood was defunded. However, he said Texas has made progress in rebuilding a network of facilities that provide women’s health care, with more providers now than in 2010.

Wisconsin

In Wisconsin, Planned Parenthood has been the target of defunding efforts since Republican Gov. Scott Walker took office in 2011. Walker signed a bill that year eliminating all state funding for Planned Parenthood health centers, contributing to the closure of five rural clinics. In February, Walker signed two bills that together are expected to cost Planned Parenthood $8 million per year in federal funds – including $3.5 million for family planning. The bills require state health officials to seek federal funding in the future on behalf of “less controversial providers.”

WASHINGTON – As North Korea rattles its nuclear saber, threatening to bomb the U.S. at “any moment,” a nerve-jangling question hangs in the air: If Pyongyang did launch a nuclear-armed missile at an American city, could the Pentagon’s missile defenses overcome their spotty test record and shoot it down beyond U.S. shores? America has never faced such a real-life crisis, and although officials say they are confident the defenses would work as advertised, the Pentagon acknowledges potential gaps that North Korea or others might be able to exploit, someday if not immediately. One possible vulnerability involves a foe’s “countermeasures,” or decoys carried aboard long-range offensive missiles to fool a U.S. interceptor missile into hitting the wrong target. The Pentagon has poured at least $84 billion into missile defense over the past decade and is planning to spend $3.3 billion more over the next five years for a single element of the system, known as Ground-based Midcourse Defense, or GMD. Its key part is a network of interceptor missiles designed to launch

this month that the nation needs “more capable forces and broader options.” Key improvements are in the works, including a “long-range discrimination” radar for more effective tracking of incoming missiles. The North Koreans’ harsh rhetoric, including a threat in late February to deal “fatal blows at the U.S. mainland any moment,” is linked in part to its anger at U.S.-South Korean military exercises, which the North sees as a rehearsal for an invasion. No one is predicting a bolt-out-ofthe-blue North Korean nuclear attack, but the threat looms larger as the Koreans seemingly stride closer to fielding a nuclear-armed missile that can reach U.S. territory. Already this year they have claimed a successful H-bomb test, put a satellite into space orbit and claimed a successful simulated test of the warhead re-entry knowhow needed for a missile strike on the United States. On Thursday, the North claimed to have successfully tested a solid-fuel rocket engine which, if true, would mark a significant further technological advance. The use of solid fuel reduces launch preparation time and thus shortens warning time for U.S. defenses.

Immigrants create jobs

To those who say immigrants are “taking American jobs,” here’s a morsel to mull over: Immigrants drove the creation of more than half the current U.S.-based technology startups valued at $1 billion or more, according to a new report from the National Foundation for American Policy. The nonpartisan think tank examined 87 privately held companies tracked by the Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones VentureSource. Forty-four had at least one immigrant founder. These companies collectively were valued at $168 billion and created an average of 760 jobs each in the U.S. At 62 of the companies, at least one immigrant helped the company grow and innovate. From California to Illinois, these companies employ Americans in sectors including technology, health, energy and financial services. Uber, co-founded by a Canadian immigrant, directly employs at least 900 people, but reported having more than 162,000 “active drivers” in the U.S. as of December 2014. Instead of being displaced by immigrants, Americans are being employed by them. Of course, this flies in the face of the anti-immigrant sentiment being spewed by some high-profile politicians in recent days. Instead of talking about “building walls,” Washington leaders should be doing more to welcome international students to our universities and finally expand access to H-1B visas that allow skilled foreign workers to remain in this country. Nearly one-fourth of the 87 startup companies examined in the study had a founder who first came to America as an international student. Again this year, the federal government’s lottery to obtain one of the 85,000 H-1B visas available is expected to hit capacity within only one week. The U.S. should make it easier for the best and brightest entrepreneurs to permanently locate here. Yet some politicians would make it more difficult. Republican presidential candidate and U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz introduced legislation requiring those seeking a visa to not only have an advanced degree, but also to have worked outside the United States for at least a decade. This legislation “would have guaranteed that almost none of the billion-dollar startup companies with an immigrant founder would have been started in the United States,” according to the study. Politicians talk about leading the world in innovation, job creation and economic development. Yet thousands of foreign nationals are unable to work and open businesses here. It makes no sense.

ANOTHER VIEW

Trump shares responsibility for violence We aren’t naive enough to believe or suggest protests at rallies for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump this year are entirely spontaneous acts. To the contrary, protest spontaneity is, we believe, the exception, not the rule at Trump events. Do Americans have a right to protest? Yes. Should they infringe on Trump’s right to speak at rallies or on the right of Trump supporters to hear him? No. Have some protesters at Trump rallies crossed the line into unacceptable disruption? Yes. When they do cross the line, should they be removed from the venue? Yes. However, violence we have seen inflicted upon some of them at these events is, in a word, appalling, and Trump shares responsibility for it. Simply put, words matter. The words they use and the high-profile podiums and platforms from which they speak afford candidates for the office of president of the United States a

powerful position from which to inspire ... or incite. Trump, in our view, is doing both. On the positive side, Trump’s overall campaign pledge to “make America great again” resonates in optimistic fashion with many voters. On the negative side, though, continued incendiary language from Trump at his rallies about protesters contributes to the ugly, unacceptable reactions of some supporters we have witnessed at these events. Is this rhetoric acceptable for someone who wishes to be the next president of all Americans? Should a candidate for president tacitly approve of violence by some Americans against other Americans for, in essence, voicing their opinion? We believe the answer to these questions is an emphatic “no.” Trump says he doesn’t condone violence at his events, but

it’s hard to believe he’s sincere given the kind of stuff he says from the stage. To us, it’s akin to professing your opposition to pornography as you emerge from an adult bookstore or X-rated movie theater. We don’t give organized, disruptive protesters at Trump rallies a pass. They, too, have an obligation to ratchet back agitation at these events, no question. We don’t absolve individuals who react violently toward protesters of personal accountability, either. Still, turning down the temperature should begin with Trump. He needs to tone down the “tough guy” talk and speak out at his rallies in stronger fashion against any violence directed at protesters by those who support him. In other words, set the proper tone, in unequivocal fashion. If trouble begins, event security should deal with it, not audience members.

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

Sioux City (Nebraska) Journal

VIEWS Rich Miller the rest of us have been seeing for the past year or more. There is no doubt Rauner had a bad March 15. While he wasn’t directly involved in Speaker Madigan’s Democratic primary, there’s zero doubt the people who funded Madigan’s opponent were friendly to the governor’s interests. They made the campaign a referendum on Madigan’s entire career, and Madigan won handily. The same money conduit Rauner used to fund other races, Dan Proft, somehow came up with $1.3 million in cash via a “dark money” group to give directly to Rep. Ken Dunkin (D-Chicago). All that other Raunerite money ($1.6 million) spent on Dunkin’s behalf didn’t just appear out of nowhere, either. And nobody really believes the Illinois Chamber all of a sudden decided without prompting to run an additional million-dollar TV ad supporting Dunkin (who had one of the lowest Chamber ratings of any state legislator) without first consulting its own board of directors. That race became a very public referendum on Rauner, but Dunkin ended up

winning only 32 percent of the vote. Oops. And, of course, there’s state Sen. Sam McCann (R-Plainview). Rauner personally endorsed McCann’s GOP opponent Bryce Benton, funneled millions of dollars into Benton’s race, both via Proft and through a $50,000 contribution from himself, and personally campaigned with Benton in the days leading up to the election. He threw the kitchen sink at McCann, with a boatload of cash spent to make the race about how McCann was Speaker Madigan’s “favorite senator.” McCann won by more than 5 percentage points. That’s a solid Rauner defeat in anyone’s book. Everyone with even semi-honest eyes could see Rauner was a big loser. Yes, he won several other primary races, but he basically steamrolled a bunch of unprepared amateurs with overwhelming financial resources and (in most cases) viciously negative ads. Without a doubt, it’s important to win those little races (Madigan himself does it a lot), but the marquee contests against formidable foes – who are far more like the legislative Democrats Rauner will face in November – most definitely went south. And, yet, there he was, claiming via news release Madigan was the primary election’s real loser, even though all of Madigan’s candidates won.

“There were many races last night where special interests backed by Speaker Madigan failed to defeat Republican incumbents and candidates who support Governor Rauner’s call for structural reforms,” his post-election press release bellowed. Somehow, in Rauner’s mind, it’s Madigan’s fault some Republican hopefuls with a smidgeon of union backing lost their races to Rauner’s heavily financed candidates. The excuse I heard afterward was Madigan had issued his own press release pointing out the governor’s losses and the governor felt he needed to respond. OK, I get that. Madigan didn’t have to rub Rauner’s nose in the previous day’s humiliations. But has nobody ever heard of taking the high road, or at least a road which exists in the real world? Like I said at the beginning, accepting political reality is not this governor’s strong suit. If that wasn’t abundantly clear before the primary election, it surely became clear the day after. And this governmental impasse ain’t ever gonna end until that stark fact of life changes.

Americans struggle to see themselves as middle class By NOAH SMITH Bloomberg View

As the presidential primary season continues, much has been made of the appeal candidates Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders hold for the angry, disaffected working class. Everyone seems to agree this group is in trouble and needs serious help. But which Americans exactly are part of the working class? There is no set definition. You can define class by wealth, but a young worker starting out on Wall Street and earning relatively little is hardly lower-class. You can define it by income, although that will be distorted by local differences in the cost of living, and by age (retirees have little income but usually more wealth). But perhaps the most important definition is in people’s minds. Gallup periodically asks people to place themselves in one of five classes – upper, upper-middle, middle, working and lower. The percentages of Americans

who consider themselves working class has stayed relatively stable. But the self-identified middle class has plunged by about 10 percentage points, matched by an even larger increase in the percentage of Americans who label themselves lower class. Why do fewer Americans identify as middle class? One obvious possibility is the middle class has been spreading out, separating into a well-to-do upper-middle and an expanding working class. The evidence shows something like this has been happening for decades now. Income inequality has been steadily increasing since 1970, with especially big jumps in the early 1980s and early 1990s. That certainly seems likely to reduce the share of people who feel like they’re in the middle. But we don’t see a divergence – what we really see is a downward drift. Why? One development is the difference between the working and upper-middle class incomes has widened, but the gap between the upper middle

and the rich has absolutely exploded. That could be making everyone more pessimistic about where they stand in the hierarchy. But there are problems with this explanation as well – it gets the timing wrong. The strange thing is if we look back to the ’80s and ’90s, when incomes within the middle-class were diverging rapidly, we see very little change in class identification. Gallup’s data indicates class identification in general held steady all the way up through 2008 – the sudden increase in the lower class, and the drop in the middle class, happened after the financial crisis and the Great Recession. Were Americans tricking themselves all that time? Did bubbles in the stock and housing markets distract them from the fact their incomes had stagnated? Did unsustainable borrowing allow working and lower-class Americans to keep up their consumption levels for a little while, delaying the day of reckoning? That seems very possible. Another

possibility is class identification is really a measure of risk. Even if your family makes $180,000 a year, well above the national median, it might be hard to think of yourself as upper-middle class if you could be fired at any time, or if one medical emergency could send you into bankruptcy. A large number of high-earning Americans live paycheck to paycheck. The U.S.’s dysfunctional health-care system makes medical emergencies a much bigger financial threat than in countries such as Canada or Britain. And the enormous layoffs in the Great Recession drove home just how insecure many Americans’ jobs are – in contrast to Japan, where companies cut wages to keep people employed through slowdowns. Whatever the reason, the shift in class identification is real. More and more Americans think of themselves as being on the bottom of the economic totem pole. This may be why politicians are focusing less on economic opportunity and more on fear.

It’s almost impossible to make a deal with somebody who won’t accept reality. That’s been the case in Illinois for more than a year, as Gov. Bruce Rauner has made one politically unrealistic demand after another while refusing to negotiate a budget until those demands were met, all the while blaming the entire impasse on House Speaker Michael Madigan’s intransigence. Because the public debate is so wrapped up in partisanship and ideology, it’s been tough for a large segment of the population to wrap its collective mind around what’s really been going on. Many see this fight as the “new, good” Rauner versus the “old, bad” Madigan. While that argument certainly has plenty of merit, it’s not nearly the entire story. It takes two to tango, and the truth is, and always has been, that Rauner doesn’t even have enthusiastic support among legislative Republicans for a big chunk of his “Turnaround Agenda,” particularly his demands that are opposed by labor unions. His complete agenda cannot pass both legislative chambers no matter who the House speaker is. After what happened the day after the March primary election, however, Rauner’s obvious inability to accept some stark political realities finally may help more folks understand what

U.S. consumer spending posts scant February increase By MARTIN CRUTSINGER The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – U.S. consumers barely increased their spending in February and spent less in January than the government had earlier estimated. The pullback led some analysts to downgrade their expectations for the economy’s growth during the January-March quarter. Consumer spending edged up a tiny 0.1 percent last month, the Commerce Department said Monday. And it revised down its estimate of spending growth in January from a solid 0.5 percent gain to a much weaker 0.1 percent, which matched December’s lackluster figure. With consumer spending, which fuels about 70 percent of the economy, off to a weak start in 2016, some analysts predict just 1 percent annual economic growth in the first quarter – half the increase they had earlier foreseen. “Consumers got off to a soggy start this year,” said Sal Guatieri, senior economist at BMO Capital Markets. But Guatieri

said he still expects an acceleration as the year progresses, driven by solid job growth and low borrowing costs. The report showed that incomes edged up just 0.2 percent in February, though that followed a robust 0.5 percent gain in January, the strongest income growth in seven months. Economists have been surprised that lower gas prices have yet to drive more spending. But some suggested that many households may have decided to increase savings first and spend more later. Monday’s spending report showed that the saving rate rose to 5.4 percent of after-tax income in February, up from 5.3 percent in January to the highest level in a year. “The good news is the consumer has plenty of powder to shoot with if the outlook starts to improve, with all the money they have set aside for a rainy day,” said Chris Rupkey, chief financial economist at MUFG Union Bank in New York. Rupkey suggested that the tepid spending increases in January and February

showed that consumers had turned cautious at the start of the year in the face of “stock market turbulence and increasing downside risks from the world economy.” A key price gauge followed by the Federal Reserve showed that prices fell 0.1 percent in February and have risen just 1 percent over the past 12 months, well below the Fed’s inflation target of 2 percent. Last month’s weakness in spending had been expected given an earlier report which showed that retail sales fell in February, pulled down by falling gasoline sales. On Friday, the government revised its estimate for overall economic growth, as measured by the gross domestic product. It showed the economy growing at an annual rate of 1.4 percent in the fourth quarter, an improvement from a previous estimate of 1 percent. After a policy meeting this month, the Fed left a key rate unchanged while signaling that it now expects to raise rates only twice this year, down from a previous expectation of four rate increases.

Illinois Blower expands facility By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO

sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com

CARY – A Cary-based company that makes industrial fans and blowers is expanding its space and workforce within the village to meet an increased workload. Manufacturer Illinois Blower nearly is finished with renovations to a building at 740 Industrial Drive, Cary, that gives the company about 30,000 extra square feet for manufacturing operations, said Rick Bursh, vice president for business development. Illinois Blower has been headquartered at a 45,000-square-foot building, 750 Industrial Drive, since the mid-1980s. The expansion helps Illinois Blower keep up with changing markets and increased demands from customers, Bursh said. “Our business has expanded over the past year to the point that we started to lease space at 740 Industrial,” he said.

“We are seeing a lot of business in our area come back domestically where it hadn’t been.” Rick Bursh

Illinois Blower vice president for business development “More and more, we took over the existing space and reworked it for manufacturing.” Now employing close to 100 people, the Cary company has seen increased demand for its industrial fans through a deal with the General Electric Company’s transportation division. The manufacturer also needed extra room in Cary after closing a manufacturing site last year in China to focus on a growing North American customer base. Business with power generation com-

panies had slowed down in China, allowing Illinois Blower to focus on a re-emerging North American market that had been stagnant for more than a decade, Bursh said. “We are seeing a lot of business in our area come back domestically where it hadn’t been,” he said. Illinois Blower engineers and makes industrial fans and blowers primarily for companies that deal in the oil and gas, power generation and transportation industries. The deal with GE Transportation supplies the Chicago-based division with industrial fans for its freight and passenger locomotives, Bursh said. To accommodate expanded operations in Cary, Illinois Blower already has added roughly 30 employees to its ranks. The company now rents about half the space at its second location on Industrial Drive. Renovations should conclude by May, Bursh said.

Chinese group bids $15B for Starwood The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – The price for Starwood Hotels rocketed higher after an offer from China’s Anbang and its partners crossed the $15 billion mark in a fight for control with Marriott International. Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc., which has a tony stable of hotels including the St. Regis New York, said Monday that the offer from the Anbang group is “reasonably likely” to be superior to the one made just last week by Marriott. While CEO Arne Sorenson said in an interview at the time on CNBC that he didn’t tell Starwood that the latest offer was Marriott’s last and best, some industry analysts believe this may be a fight it can’t win, at least if it is to be determined by the highest bid. On Monday, Marriott said in a letter that shareholders of Starwood should give serious consideration not only to financing an offer of such size, but also to “the timing of any required regulatory approvals.” While Marriott said it would not comment outside of that letter, it appeared to be alluding to hurdles that a Chinese company would have in acquiring Starwood. Anbang is the Chinese insurance company that two years ago acquired the famed Waldorf Astoria of York. While that deal was cleared by the U.S. Treasury’s Committee on Foreign Investment, a decision was made to house President Barack Obama, his top aides and

General Assembly, which takes place every September. Presidents and other top U.S. diplomatic officials had stayed at the Waldorf for decades. For Anbang, analysts say Starwood isn’t valued so much for its brand name as much as it is for its location: outside of Chi-

na. That has been the view of Canaccord analyst Ryan Meliker, who told clients in a research note, “We don’t think [Marriott] can go higher, and we would question it if they did.” Anbang and a number of Chinese companies have been seeking to park money in more stable locations, such as U.S. real estate, particularly with signs of slowing growth at home growing ever clearer.

She wants to encourage all women to have regular checkups, as that is how her cancer was discovered,” Dickinson’s attorney, Lisa Bloom, said in a statement Monday. Dickinson told DailyMail.com that a “pea-size” lump was found on her right breast during a doctor visit on March 8. Three days after the lump was discovered, Dickinson had a mammogram and a biopsy. She will undergo surgery and radiation therapy. “Don’t feel sorry for me, this is not a pity party, I’m Janice Dickinson and I’m gonna stick around for a long, long time, you ain’t getting rid of me yet,” she told the website. “It’s still quite shocking. You know, I’ve had plastic surgery and I’ve had breast implants and I’ve always been very vocal of what I’ve done, because I tell the truth about everything. As I am right now,” the 61-year-old said. Dickinson, author of “No Lifeguard on Duty: The Accidental Life of the World’s First Supermodel” and “Everything About Me Is Fake ... and I’m Perfect,” was a cast member of VH1’s “The Surreal Life” and UPN’s “America’s Next Top Model.” Dickinson has sued Bill Cosby for defamation, and the comedian’s lawyers will argue for the case’s dismissal during a hearing Tuesday in Los Angeles. Dickinson has attended recent hearings in the case, which focuses on denials by Cosby’s camp of her claims the comedian drugged and raped her in 1982 in Lake Tahoe, California.

HILLSBOROUGH TOWNSHIP, N.J. – Demolition work is expected to resume Tuesday at a historic New Jersey mansion once owned by tobacco heiress and socialite Doris Duke. The work started earlier this month but was stopped after a day because community activists opposed to the demolition won a temporary court order halting it. The order was rescinded about two weeks later when an appellate court said the activists failed to show “a reasonable probability of ultimate success” with their case against The Duke Farms Foundation, which owns the mansion. The 67,000-square-foot mansion in Hillsborough Township has been empty since Duke’s death in 1993. Foundation officials say it’s in disrepair and would take $10 million to fix. Half the mansion was demolished before the work was stopped. It’s unclear how long it’ll take to knock down the rest.

Rory O’Malley to star in Broadway’s ‘Hamilton’

NEW YORK – Tony Award-nominee Rory O’Malley, whose bid to return to Broadway this season in “Nerds” failed, has found another way – in the mega-success “Hamilton.” O’Malley, who was last seen on Broadway as Elder McKinley in “The Book of Mormon,” will play the tart-tongued George III starting

April 11. He’ll replace Jonathan Groff, whose last show will be April 9. He is leaving to film David Fincher’s new drama series for Netflix called “Mindhunter.” Written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, “Hamilton,” about Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, tells the true story of an orphan immigrant from the Caribbean who rises to the highest ranks of American society, told by a young African-American and Latino cast. O’Malley, whose other Broadway credits include “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,” was to star as Bill Gates in the musical “Nerds,” but financing fell through.

NEW YORK – Barbara Cook’s return to a New York stage in a show about her life has been postponed. Producers said Monday that “Barbara Cook: Then and Now,” conceived by James Lapine and directed by Tommy Tune, will not be staged this spring at the New World Stages complex. In a statement, producer Roy Furman noted that Cook has been hard at work on her memoir. “Going directly into

BURLINGTON, Vt. – The former “Most Interesting Man in the World” who appeared in Dos Equis beer commercials for nine years is lending his gravelly voice and bearded face to a Vermont cause: Make-A-Wish Foundation Vermont. Jonathan Goldsmith will star in public service announcements for the organization, which grants wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions. The Mexican beer brand recently dropped the 77-year-old, New York-born actor and says a younger “Most Interesting Man in the World” will appear in commercials later this year. Goldsmith, who lives in Manchester, Vermont, has worked on a number of charitable causes throughout his career and has been involved with at-risk kids since he was 18, he said Monday. “In fact, I really wanted to be a social worker. I wanted that to be my life’s work, but a circuitous route took me to Broadway,” he told The Associated Press. On Monday, he and Wish Kid Jamie Heath of Barre, Vermont, recorded public service announcements for TV and the Internet focused on spreading

the word that Make-A-Wish helps not just children with terminal conditions, but also those with life-threatening conditions where a wish can help in the healing process. Jamie, who has an arteriovenous malformation in her brain that has caused hemorrhaging and strokes, knows firsthand how the wishes help to heal after swimming with sea turtles in Hawaii last April through Make-A-Wish Vermont. “It was awesome. I will never forget the joy that that brought me,” the 15-yearold said. “It let me run away for a week. And when I got back, I felt I no longer had to run away. You know I was ready to accept my condition and my disabilities,” said Jamie, who also speaks at Make-AWish fundraising events.

Emojimania Fans and brands crying tears of joy

By LEANNE ITALIE • The Associated Press

hen it comes to emojis, the future is very, very ... Face with Tears of Joy. If you don’t know what that means then you: a) aren’t a 14-yearold girl. b) love to hate those tiny pictures that people text you all the time. Or c) are nowhere near a smartphone or online chat. Otherwise, here in 2016, it’s all emojis, all the time. And Face with Tears of Joy, by the way, is a bright yellow happy face with a classic, toothy grin as tears fall. The Face was chosen by Oxford Dictionaries as its 2015 “word” of the year, based on its popularity and reflecting the rise of emojis to help charitable causes, promote businesses and generally assist oh-so-many-more of us in further expressing ourselves on social media and in texts. The Beyhive knows. The collective fan base of Beyonce recently spammed Amber Rose with little bumblebee emojis when they sensed a diss of their queen. Taco Bell also knows. Emoji overseers approved a taco character last year after a yearlong campaign by the company to get one up and running, rewarding users of said taco on Twitter with gifts of free photos, GIFs and other virtual playthings to celebrate. So what’s it all about? Here’s a look at the past, present and rosy future of emojis:

Where did they come from?

While there’s now a strict definition of emojis as images created through standardized computer coding that works across platforms, they have many, many popular cousins by way of “stickers,” which are images without the wonky back end. Kimojis, the invention of Kim Kardashian, aren’t technically emojis, for instance, at least in the eyes of purists. In tech lore, the great emoji explosion has a grandfather in Japan, and his name is Shigetaka Kurita. He was inspired in the 1990s by manja and kanji when he and others on a team working to develop what is considered the world’s first widespread mobile Internet platform came up with some rudimentary characters. They were working a good decade before Apple developed a

set of emojis for the first iPhones. Emojis are either loads of fun or the bane of your existence. One thing is sure: There’s no worry they’ll become a “language” in and of themselves. While everybody from Coca-Cola to the Kitten Bowl have come up with little pictographs to whip up interest in themselves, emojis exist mainly to nuance the words regular folk type, standing in for tone of voice, facial expressions and physical gestures – extended middle finger emoji added recently. “Words aren’t dead. Long live the emoji, long live the word,” laughed Gretchen McCulloch, a Toronto linguist who, like some others in her field, is studying emojis and other aspects of Internet language. Emojis have been compared to hieroglyphs, but McCulloch is not on board. That ancient picture-speak included symbols with literal meaning, but others stood in for actual sound. Emoji enthusiasts have played with telling word-free stories using their little darlings alone and translating song lyrics into the pictures, “but they can’t be put together like letters to make a pronounceable word,” McCulloch said.

Julie Zhuo, product design director at Facebook, demonstrates the new emoji icons. With more than 270 billion text messages sent a day, those tiny pictures and symbols have exploded beyond their initial fan base of 14-year-old girls. Now businesses, charities and events are scrambling to come up with their own.

profit industry organization working in collaboration with the International Organization for Standardization, the latter an independent nongovernmental body that helps develop specifications for all sorts of things, including emojis, on a global scale. Unicode, co-founded and headed by Mark Davis in Zurich, has a big, big mission, of which emojis have a place: making sure all the languages in the world are encoded and supported across platforms and devices. The key word here is volunteer. Davis has a whole other job at Google, but he has dedicated himself to the task above. He also co-chairs the consortium’s emoji subcommittee, a cog in a vetting process for new emojis that can take up to two years before new ones are put into the Unicode Standard for the likes of Apple, Google, Microsoft and Facebook to do with what they wish. Where does Davis sit with the rapid rise of emojis? “It has been a surprise. We didn’t fully understand how popular they were going to be,” he said. At the moment, Unicode has released 1,624 emojis, with more options when you factor in modifiers for things such as skin tone. The emoji subcommittee The emoji overseers Back when Kurita was creating some fields about 100 proposals for new emojis a year. Not all make it through the of the first emojis, chaos already had vetting process. ensued in trying to make all the pagers “We don’t encode emoji for movie and all the emerging mobile phones and or fictional people, or for deities. And the newfangled thing called email and we’re not going to give you a Donald everything else Internet-ish that was Trump,” Davis said. bubbling up speak to each other. And Gender, he said, is among the next also to allow people in Japan used to frontiers for emojis.

The consortium is Enter the Unicode Consortium, on trying to come up with a way to more the coding end. It’s a volunteer non-

easily and quickly customize emoji for gender, hair color and other features, Davis said.

Emoji lovers and haters

Meet Elle Brown. She’s a 9-year-old “kidpreneur” from Plant City, Florida. She makes emoji-theme jewelry and key fobs she sells at school and church, and her mom sells from her desk at an insurance firm. “My favorite one is the ‘poo’ emoji, and the money emoji,” Elle said. While marketers are all over emojis these days, professional brander Kevin Winslow in Boise, Idaho, was a reluctant adopter. “I thought they were rather silly. It didn’t seem to me like something a grown-up would use,” he said. “Now they’re a necessity in social media campaigns. Sometimes they help do away with the exclamation point, which I also despise.” Vivian Rosenthal is founder and head of Snaps, a platform on which keyboards full of branded images are launched, including marketing campaigns intended to support social causes, such as the plight of refugees. With nearly half of all Instagram posts now including at least one emoji and with more than 270 billion text messages sent a day across all mobile devices, brands are trying big time to monetize emojis, Rosenthal said. “Basically, messaging is social 2.0,” she added. “People want to convey more and more emotion. The language of the future is a visually based language. It’s very universal and democratic.” Rosenthal estimated somewhere around 6 billion emojis and stickers are sent every day across devices and services.

– for free. All online services, meanwhile, have been dabbling in creating their own television shows. Netflix won accolades for original shows such as “House of Cards,” while Hulu commissioned a fourth season of “The Mindy Project” when Fox canceled it. Original shows help services set themselves apart from each other and could ease the impact of any pullback in traditional TV shows. But for now, these services are mostly about giving viewers a chance to catch up on what’s been shown on traditional TV – and giving viewers less of a reason to tune in.

“To a certain degree, you can’t put the genie back in the bottle,” said Anthony DiClemente, an analyst at Nomura Securities. “Once people are accustomed to it, that’s going to be the expectation.” Traditional cable and satellite TV services have been in slow decline for years, in part because younger audiences aren’t signing up and are turning to online options instead. The decline isn’t big enough to threaten cable and television companies immediately, but they are taking notice. And the numbers hide the fact many subscribers are opting for cheaper packages with fewer channels.

NEW YORK – The Golden Age of Online Television may be in peril. Streaming TV has gotten popular as several online services such as Netflix make past seasons of TV shows available for binge-watching, while Hulu offers episodes from the current season. Now, some television companies are balking at giving them timely access to shows. The big worry: Making streaming TV too pleasant might encourage viewers to cut back or drop their cable service. Cable and satellite companies now pay TV networks billions of dollars a year to carry their channels. In turn, TV production companies make a lot from licensing fees paid by the networks. Cord-cutting could jeopardize all of those arrangements, and the audience and ad revenue boost from the Internet might not be enough to make up for any revenue losses from traditional TV. Time Warner Inc., which has both networks and a production business, has been exploring the possibility of holding back some of its DC Comics superhero shows such as “The Flash”

and “Supergirl.” If it took that step, viewers might have to wait years to watch the most recent episodes online; now, they’re typically available no more than a year after airing. Hulu may be next. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that Time Warner is in talks to invest in Hulu and has told Hulu’s owners it wants to curtail current-season TV episodes, which Hulu now makes available as early as the next day. It’s not yet clear what such restrictions might look like. Time Warner and Hulu didn’t respond to requests for comment, though Time Warner may reveal more of its digital strategy when it reports quarterly earnings Wednesday. The tremors emanating from Time Warner are just the latest instance of established media companies looking to protect their established partners and deals, whether viewers like it or not. Hulu already has pulled back in recent years. When it launched nearly a decade ago, the service offered most shows from its network parents the morning after they aired. These days, many Fox and ABC shows require a Hulu or cable subscription for next-day viewing. Otherwise, viewers have to wait eight days. And for Fox, Hulu now has just the past four episodes – not five

Healthy diet and regular exercise can help control Type 2 diabetes Dear Dr. K: I recently was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. My doctor said the best thing I can do is to lose weight. Why? Dear Reader: Type 2 diabetes usually starts after a person becomes an adult. It is by far the most common type of diabetes. It has been clear for many years people who are overweight are at much greater risk for developing Type 2 diabetes. In the past 20 years, research discoveries have begun to explain why. We used to think of fat as an inert layer of insulation. In recent years, we’ve discovered the special cells inside fat (“fat cells”) are not inert at all: They are little hormone-producing factories. The hormones they make travel through the blood to the brain and other organs. They influence a person’s appetite and metabolism. They also influence the amount of sugar in the blood. Diabetes, of course, is marked by high levels of glucose (sugar) in the blood and urine. Your doctor’s recommendation is right in line with guidelines from the American Diabetes Association (ADA). They urge all people newly diagnosed with diabetes to lose weight as the first step to controlling their blood sugar. The best way to lose weight? By eating more healthfully and exercising more. A blood test called HbA1c estimates average blood sugar levels over the past two or three months. People with diabetes should aim for an HbA1c level of less than 7 percent. Losing weight and exercising more can decrease your HbA1c level by one or two percentage points. That might not sound like much, but a two-point reduction in HbA1c can put your blood sugar in the normal range, dramatically reducing your chances of developing a diabetes-related health problem.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff How much weight do you need to lose to see improvements? If you are overweight, losing just 5 to 10 percent of your starting weight can help you manage your diabetes. Not all people with Type 2 diabetes are overweight. But even if your weight is in the healthy range, losing three to five pounds can help control your blood sugar. What’s most important is the diet delivers fewer calories than you burn each day. That imbalance translates into weight loss. For lasting weight loss, choose an appealing diet so you can stick with it. (Of course, for long-term health, it’s also important to choose a diet based on healthy foods.) So how can you cut calories? First, eat smaller portions. Also, substitute lower-calorie alternatives for high-calorie foods. For example, have grilled fish and steamed vegetables for dinner instead of a plate of pasta. It also helps to stick with a regular eating schedule. Plan meals and snacks that are no more than four hours apart to help keep you from becoming too hungry and overeating. I have known many patients who were able to control their Type 2 diabetes with just diet and exercise. They did not need medicine. Diet and exercise really are that effective. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

you should have learned by now not to confide your problems in your mother. That your husband seems incapable of tolerating his son because of “personality differences” is regrettable, but hardly a cause for divorce at this point. If Chris stayed in a hotel during his visits rather than your home, it would provide less opportunity for confrontation, and you both might enjoy the visits more. I hope you will consider it.

Dear Abby: DEAR ABBY My 29-year-old brother died Jeanne unexpectedly last Phillips month. He left behind a wife and 1-year-old son. Although they lived across the country, she allowed us to bring him home for his funeral and burial. I took care of a lot of the arrangements on this end, while she took care of things there and made travel arrangements. At 26, I never expected to be planning a funeral. But it has made me realize how unprepared I was for any unforeseen event. Please remind your young readers it’s never too early to take care of some basic plans, including a will. As a single mother, I know how unprepared I was if something should happen to me. While it’s not a pleasant thought, it’s tougher on the survivors if nothing is in place. When it comes to mortality, it’s better to be practical and prepared. – Still Grieving, But Now Prepared Dear Still Grieving: Please accept my sympathy for the untimely loss of your brother. Mortality isn’t a subject young people usually dwell on. But if they want what they have to be distributed according to their wishes, or if there are children involved, it’s important to put their wishes in writing. Readers: This includes what you would or would not like done if you can’t speak for yourself. Do you want to be on artificial life support if there is no hope for your recovery? How do you feel about becoming an organ donor? Put it in writing. Dear Abby: “Don” and I have been married for 44 years, and our marriage has had its ups and downs. We are now both retired. The problem is Don does not get along with our 43-year-old son, “Chris.” (He gets along fine with our two daughters.) Don and Chris have very different personalities and little in common. Chris lives abroad but visits frequently and stays with us. During his most recent visit, his father was distant and rude to him. It has happened before and is hurtful to Chris and to me. I have tried speaking with my husband about it, but he never has a good reason for his behavior. When my mother heard what happened, she got angry and said if I don’t divorce Don, she doesn’t want to see either of us again. Please help me. I don’t know what to do. – Hurt

Greg Norman said, “Setting goals for your game is an art. The trick is in setting them at the right level, neither too low nor too high.” When trying to get to game in a major after partner has raised your one-of-a-major opening to two, you must move with a hand at the right level ... strength. You should have six losers. Also, if you rebid three of a minor, you may do that with only a three-card suit because it is forcing to three of your major. In today’s deal, note that South’s hand has six losers: one heart, two diamonds and three clubs. When opener has a choice of suits, he should, strange as it sounds, bid his weaker minor. Here, South should rebid three clubs. Opposite that, North has the worst possible club holding: three low. So he signs off in three spades. West leads the club jack. East takes three tricks in the suit, then exits safely with a spade. How should South proceed after drawing trumps? Declarer can afford only one more loser. His two main chances to get home are the heart ace with West or the diamond queen with East. Which should he try ﬁrst? The rule is: Play initially the suit with the higher missing card; here, hearts. South leads his heart toward dummy’s king. When West has the ace, the king sets up for a diamond discard. But if East had the heart ace, the diamond ﬁnesse would still be on the back burner. Finally, note that if South had rebid three diamonds, North might have jumped to the hopeless fourspade contract.

NORTHWEST HERALD WRESTLER OF THE YEAR

NO BEATING BRUNNER

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Dundee-Crown’s Christian Brunner is the 2016 Northwest Herald Wrestler of the Year. Brunner finished his senior season undefeated at 48-0 with 36 pins, and he won the Class 3A state championship at 195 pounds.

Undefeated senior had 36 pins en route to state championship By JOHN WILKINSON

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com

hristian Brunner had come close before, finishing second and third at state in previous seasons, but as a senior, the Dundee-Crown wrestler was determined to leave high school as a state champion. He accomplished that goal in dominant fashion. Brunner went 48-0, breaking his own school record for wins in a season, and won 36 of those matches by pin. At the state finals, he pinned his opponent in the second period to cap his career with his first title, becoming the third state champion in school history and the first since 2008. Along the way Brunner also set the

school record for career wins with 165 and career pins with 120. He was even honored with an official “Christian Brunner Day” on March 15 in Carpentersville and March 21 in East Dundee. For his performance, Brunner is the Northwest Herald Wrestler of the Year, as voted on by the sports staff with input from local coaches. Also receiving consideration was fellow undefeated senior state champion Travis Piotrowski of Prairie Ridge and other local state title winners Lenny Petersen of Crystal Lake Central and Colten Cashmore of Alden-Hebron. Brunner, along with other winners, local standouts and more will be recognized at the Northwest Herald’s inaugural high school sports award show June

7 at the Woodstock Opera House. Recently, the Purdue-bound senior answered a few questions about his love for wrestling, what he listens to before matches, how he would change the sport and more.

1. What was the first big meal you ate once you didn’t have to worry about weight anymore? I think it was steak.

2. What was it this year that made the difference for you compared to others?

All the extra coaching and help. Just wrestling a lot more and having different coaches help me with different areas of the sport.

3. You’re a student of the sport. If you could go back in time and train with any wrestler ever, who would it be and why?

Dave Schultz. He was probably the best technician in America. I think being with him you’d learn the most. He was just a phenomenal wrestler. It would be an honor to wrestle with him.

4. What’s your favorite thing about your sport?

Just that it’s all on you. And that there’s so much to learn that you could never know everything about the sport.

5. What do you think was the best match you wrestled all year?

My state final match was good. But probably the ones that got me most prepared was wrestling (Harlem’s Jenner) Hecox both times. I think that was probably my toughest matches of the year.

See BRUNNER, page 5

Lehr led Tigers to state trophy By JOHN WILKINSON

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com

1. What was the biggest challenge this year with your guys?

I know for us and some of the other teams, we start a lot of underclassmen, and to go and just get beat on week after week, you’ve got to find a way to keep those kids positive. That’s probably the biggest thing that you have to do. It was probably the hardest job I had this year.

2. Which kid made you laugh the most this year, and which drove you the craziest?

I’d probably say, which is hilarious because people don’t even know, Lenny Petersen is probably one of the funniest kids you’ll ever meet. I think a lot of people think he’s super serious because he gives off that vibe and his face and his whole look and demeanor on the mat. … And then one of the kids that I’d say drove me the most crazy is Brock Montford, because he’s 15 going on 35. He does doomsday prepping and stuff. … That’s for sure the kid that drove me the most insane, but he’s a great kid.

3. What’s your favorite sports movie?

I mean I’ve got to give a nod, every wrestler, if you don’t say “Vision Quest” I feel like you’re a loser, honestly. But outside the sport of wrestling, if I had to pick another sports movie, I love “Sandlot.”

4. What’s the worst wrestling coach cliche of all?

There’s so many good ones. “Use it,” “Do you even want to win?” I mean there’s so many good ones. I feel like sometimes I’m just yelling like a bear in a thicket in the woods. The kids don’t even know what I’m saying, because you get so frustrated.

5. What’s the biggest difference in the sport now versus when you were a high school wrestler?

I remember back when I was in high school or I’d come in junior high and watch, there was a certain hatred between schools. In wrestling now you go to these clubs and you’re best friends with five kids from Huntley, five kids from (Crystal Lake) South, five kids from McHenry, so we’ve lost that – and I don’t want to say it’s bad for the sport – but we’ve lost that rivalry like town-versus-town thing.

Raiders can’t finish job

Huntley builds 2-0 lead, sees it vanish in draw By JOHN WILKINSON

What to watch Blackhawks at Minnesota, 7 p.m., CSN The Hawks take a two-game winning streak into Tuesday’s game against the Wild in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Really? How dominant is the Connecticut women’s basketball team? The Huskies were such a prohibitive money line favorite that bettors had to wager $63,000 to return $100 on Monday’s NCAA regional final game against Texas, according to gambling odds website Pregame.com. It would have paid off, too. UConn won, 86-65, the Huskies’ 73rd straight win overall and 22nd straight in the tournament, breaking Tennessee’s record.

HUNTLEY – After doling out postgame duties – putting away goals, gathering the game balls, etc. – Huntley girls soccer coach Kris Grabner gave his players one more task: “soul searching.” The Red Raiders are only two games into the season, but after a 2-2 nonconference draw with Palatine on Monday, Grabner was not happy with the way his team is playing. “It’s been the message from the beginning,” Grabner said. “We don’t practice hard enough, we’re afraid to be physical in practice, and you see what happens in a game. We’ve got to have a leader. We’ve got to have people step up and communicate. “So there’s a lot that we need to do to get where we expect to be. We expect to be a lot farther along. We’re about half the team we were at the end of last year, and that’s embarrassing. It blows my mind that they leave here and they connect passes and we move, and they come back and they don’t do any of that.” The Red Raiders (0-1-1) got out to a promising start Monday afternoon. Twelve minutes into the match, Taryn Jakubowski swung a corner kick into the box, where Ally Sunter headed it in for Huntley’s first goal of the year and a 1-0 lead. The hosts doubled their advantage just before halftime. Brenna Keegan took advantage of a sloppy pass by a Palatine defender and finished calmly to make it 2-0 with 1:03 left in the half. The second half, however, was all Palatine (1-1-1). Sarah Clancy made it 2-1 in the 51st minute, and then in the 57th, Marissa Glaviano tied the score. “I just thought our intensity, just the urge to play, got better in the second half, to push, get forward and put pressure on the ball, where in the first half we were slow, late to everything,” Palatine coach Willie Filian said. “A lot of that is my fault. We were sleeping coming off the bus and sleeping through the first half. ” Both goals came on second chances where Huntley players failed to track their opposition throughout the play. “I think we lost a little bit of energy,” Jakubowski said. “And I don’t want to say it’s because we thought we were going to win, but I don’t know, it’s hard.

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Huntley’s Brianna Wilder (left) kicks the ball past Palatine’s Anja Jacobsen during the first half Monday in Huntley. The team tied, 2-2. When you don’t track your runners and then you get down and they make a goal and then they get another one, it’s easy to get that second one once you’ve got that momentum coming back. We just didn’t have it, and we didn’t overcome anything.” Grabner said the Red Raiders need to start communicating better. “My concern all along has been that we don’t have that vocal leader,” Grabner said. “We have Taryn, who will work her butt off and run through a wall for coaches, for teammates, but she’s just not that vocal leader, she’s the leader by example. We need someone to step up and be the leaders by communicating with everybody. So, yeah, I think this has been a concern since the beginning. I’m also confident that we can get them where we want them to be. It might take us a little longer than expected.”

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE q UNSUNG HERO Taryn Jakubowski Huntley, sr., MF

Jakubowski assisted on the Red Raiders’ first goal and was all over the middle of the field.

q THE NUMBER

Second-half goals conceded by Huntley, which let a 2-goal lead slip away to a draw.

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

All four goals were scored in the south-end goal. Palatine coach Willie Filian said the wind is always a helping factor, but Grabner wasn’t using it as an excuse on a relatively mild day. “That can’t bother you. There’s no wind here.”

Continued from page 2 6. They already gave you your own day. If you could have a sandwich named after you, what would be on it?

Buffalo chicken, bacon, ranch and then you know, onions, tomatoes, that kind of stuff.

7. What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

The one that helped me the most was right before the state tourna-

q UNSUNG HERO

Taylor Schmidt Dundee-Crown, sr., SS

Schmidt started the Chargers’ second-inning rally with a single. D-C scored four unearned runs in that inning. Schmidt, who was 2 for 4, helped the Chargers’ errorless defense with three assists.

q THE NUMBER

D-C pinch hitters who reached base in the fourth inning. Scott Wojcik got to first on a fielder’s choice, Conor Ryan and Alec Rivas singled, and Alex Haas was hit by a pitch.

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Brian Dennison, the father of Jacobs first baseman-pitcher Casey Dennison, is the travel and pitching coach for D-C sophomore Erik Hedmark, the Chargers’ clean-up hitter, who plays with Top Tier. “He’s been my coach since I was 10,” Hedmark said. and knowing what to do.” D-C’s Danny Denz, another lefthander who will pitch at Memphis, has embraced an adviser’s role with Hedmark. “He brings a lot of intensity,” said Denz, who hits one spot ahead of Hedmark. “I try to get him under my wing, help him play the game the way he wants to play it, 100 percent, all the time. He’s doing that. During the offseason I train with him a lot. I’m proud of the way he’s hitting and playing right now.” Hedmark has thrown five innings this spring with six strikeouts, two hits and no runs allowed. “I’d like to think I can have a good season and hang with the best of them in the conference,” Hedmark said. “Just go from there. Pitching’s my passion. If I can go play college ball and pitch, that’s the dream.” ment my coach at Purdue told me, “Don’t make any tournament bigger than it is. It’s just another day. Just go out there and do your best.”

8. If you could pick another sport to be good at, what would you pick? Probably judo or jiu jitsu.

9. What’s the hardest part about cutting weight? Probably giving up junk food.

10. Who on your team makes you laugh the most?

Probably my coach (Tim Hayes), honestly. He’s got some pretty good

NORTHWEST HERALD POWER RANKINGS 1. Jacobs (5-1): The Golden Eagles are stocked with good arms, which was evident as they allowed two runs in their past four games, a sweep of Metamora on Saturday and two wins Monday on their southern Illinois trip. 2. McHenry (4-2): The Warriors won three games last week – against Antioch, Waukegan and Maine South – but lost to Hononegah, 11-6, on Monday. 3. Prairie Ridge (3-2): Six of the 14 runs the Wolves allowed in losses last week to Palatine and Brother Rice were unearned after they committed eight errors in those two games. They rebounded with a 6-4 victory at Wauconda Monday. 4. Richmond-Burton (2-1): The Rockets beat Woodstock North, 9-1, in their only game last week. R-B gets a top-five spot with its deep rotation and an early win against McHenry. 5. Crystal Lake South (3-0): The Gators won their only game last week against Elgin, 19-0, and have outscored their three opponents this season, 37-1. They will see some tougher opponents this week on their southern Illinois trip to Rent One Ballpark in Marion. NOTEWORTHY Wasting no time: Jacobs pitcher Evan Liebau was no slowpoke in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader sweep of Metamora, a 4-0 win. But Casey Dennison worked jokes.

Proud Sponsor of Athlete of the Week quickly enough in the second game it looked like he had somewhere to go. Dennison threw 97 pitches, walked none and allowed two hits in a 2-1 victory. He often got the ball from catcher Cameron Wilson and delivered another pitch within seven seconds. “If I’m feeling good, like I was today, hitting my spots, I want to keep a good tempo going, especially if I’m feeling it,” the senior right-hander said. “If they don’t call timeout, I’ll just keep going. It’s a personal preference. I like to work quick. I don’t really think, just get into the zone and start working.” Although Metamora coach Eric Stone said his team was struggling with its bats, the fact Liebau and Dennison were so dominant bodes well for the Eagles. Their two hardest throwers – right-handers Brenden Heiss and Johnny Rohde, both of whom hit 90 mph on speed guns – did not pitch Saturday, showing why Jacobs coach Jamie Murray is excited about his pitching depth. THIS WEEK’S TOP GAMES Richmond-Burton vs. Grayslake Central 4:30 p.m. Tuesday The Rockets will see one of the Fox Valley Conference Fox Division’s toughest teams in the Rams. The two used to meet in the postseason, but Grayslake Central moves up to Class 4A this season. Prairie Ridge vs. McHenry 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Petersen Park This should present a tough pitching matchup for the FVC crossover game, which counts in the division standings. Prairie Ridge likely will throw Jon Tieman or Joey Hanley, while McHenry likely will have ace Bobby Miller on the hill. Niles Notre Dame at Jacobs 11 a.m. Saturday Jacobs’ hard-throwing righty Brenden Heiss, who is headed to Arkansas, likely will get his first start of the season in this game.

show?

11. Obviously, you’re very competitive in wrestling. Are you competitive away from the mat as well or more mellow?

My favorite TV show is “The Office,” but my favorite movie would be, I don’t know, maybe “Gladiator.”

12. Wrestlers always have headphones on before matches. What do you listen to?

Yeah, I did, and then I just kind of relaxed a little bit. Just got more focused, but yeah, I definitely did have butterflies.

No, I’m pretty competitive in almost anything.

Before matches I usually listen to country music. It just kind of relaxes me.

13. What’s your favorite movie or TV

14. Did you have butterflies at state before the finals?

15. If you could change one thing about wrestling what would it be?

I’d probably just make the singlets like shorts and compression shirts.

CARPENTERSVILLE – DundeeCrown sophomore Erik Hedmark did not mess around in the batter’s box. When the left-handed-hitting right fielder saw something he liked, he hit it … hard. Hedmark saw all of six pitches against Streamwood and went 3 for 3 with a double and three RBIs as the Chargers rolled past Streamwood, 16-1, in five innings Monday in a nonconference baseErik Hedmark ball game. “I just saw first-pitch strikes and went after them,” said Hedmark, D-C’s cleanup man. “I don’t want to get down in the count and get a curveball. Go ahead and get that first-pitch strike if it’s there. Hit it if it’s my pitch. Today was a good day.” Hedmark was in good company as the Chargers (3-1) racked up 12 hits and scored in every inning. Starter Jim Welzien (1-0) allowed one earned run and three hits in three innings for the victory. Leadoff man Nick Musielewicz went 2 for 3, joining Hedmark with multiple hits. Matt Wiechmann ripped an RBI double in the first inning. “It’s tough to say a sophomore has veteran status, but [Hedmark] did well last year and he’s kind of picked up where he left off, he’s coming on and swinging the bat,” Chargers coach Jon Anderson said. “That’s all you can ask for.” Anderson saw intangibles, along with Hedmark’s ability, to promote him as a pitcher and regular player last season. “His poise, his baseball IQ,” Anderson said. “He gets on the mound and he didn’t act like a freshman. You look at him and you’d think he had been here a couple of years, that kind of confidence

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK Bobby Miller McHenry, jr., P-1B Miller turned in another dominant week on the mound with 17 strikeouts and two hits allowed in 10 scoreless innings, picking up two of the Warriors’ three wins for the week. Miller struck out nine Monday in a 10-0, five-inning victory over Antioch. He also pitched five innings and whiffed eight in Saturday’s 4-1 win against Maine South. The Louisville commit drove in a run in each of those games. He is 2-0 for the season with an ERA of 0.00, 27 strikeouts and two hits in 14 innings.

Pischke commits to Division II Lewis By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com Lewis University was a wire-to-wire winner as far as Marian Central senior Adam Pischke was concerned. Lewis was the first NCAA Division II school to heavily recruit Pischke and never wavered from that spot. Former Marian coach Kevin Dix is an assistant on the Flyers’ staff and started the contact last year. Pischke liked everything the Romeoville school had to offer and committed to Lewis coach Scott Trost and his staff Monday. The signing period for basketball was in November, so Pischke will sign his National Letter of Intent on April 13. The 5-foot-10 point guard was the Northwest Herald Player of the Year and averaged 24.4 points a game. “I went to a lot of their games,” Pischke said. “I really like how they played, they’re a really competitive team. I like their style of play, had a good relationship with all their coaches, it all feels right.”

bloch. Pischke averaged 3.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.3 steals a game and finished his career as Marian’s all-time leading scorer with 1,775 points. Dix coached at Marian in the 1990s and approached Billy DeRoo, a Marian graduate now at Lewis, last year about Pischke. Dix, assistant coach John Spruance and Trost all saw Pischke play in high school this season. Pischke had been contacted by D-II Belmont Abbey in North Carolina and planned on visiting that school, but the coach there recently quit. Pischke and his father Jeff visited Lewis on Monday and received an offer they liked, so Adam committed. “I called my mom [Jennifer] on the way home and told her everything,” Adam said. “Right when I got home, I talked to her and said, ‘I’m going to call Shaw Media file photo them now and tell them.’ ” Marian Central’s Adam Pischke has committed to play basketball at Lewis. Pischke is close to DeRoo, who is a The Flyers won the Great Lakes Val- season. baseball manager and knows several ley Conference Tournament to qualiPischke was voted to The Associated of the basketball players.

PREP ROUNDUP

Jacobs baseball team wins twice downstate NORTHWEST HERALD

Jacobs junior left-hander Brad Demkovich woke up Monday morning figuring he was going to pitch in the afternoon, but his start was moved up. Senior Johnny Rohde was nagged by an illness and unable to make his start against Plainfield North at Rent One Ball Park in Marion. Demkovich replaced Rohde and was outstanding, striking out five and allowing four hits in a 3-0 complete-game victory. “That was an incredible performance by Brad today,” Golden Eagles coach Jamie Murray said. Rohde is a powerful right-hander who has hit 90 mph on speed guns. Demkovich, a lanky lefty, silenced the Tigers, a Class 4A supersectional team last year, and did not walk a batter. He threw 85 pitches. Mike Addante was 2 for 3 with an RBI, and Stevie Krueger also drove in a run for the Eagles (5-1). Jacobs banged out 14 hits in its second game of the day, a 14-1 win over Granite City in five innings. Addante, Krueger, Tim Randl and Casey Dennison all had two hits in that game. Dennison drove in three runs. Justin Lavrisa and Dylan Cummings held Granite City to six hits. Prairie Ridge 6, Wauconda 4: At Wauconda, Jacob Carpentier drove in three

runs and Ethan Routzah allowed one earned run in five innings as the Wolves (3-2) won a nonconference game over the Bulldogs. Carpentier was 2 for 3 with a double. Bryce Thelander was 3 for 4 with an RBI, and Hunter Martin was 2 for 4 with an RBI double. Luke Annen worked the seventh for the save. With two runners aboard, Annen struck out a batter, but the runners advanced to second and third on a passed ball. Annen induced a game-ending ground out to Thelander at second. CL Central 2, Belvidere North 1: At Crystal Lake, Anthony Mann hit a walk-off single in the bottom of the seventh to bring home Luke Tevyaw and give the Tigers (4-2) a 2-1 win over Belvidere North. Anthony Novy started on the mound for the Tigers and threw six innings of one-run ball, giving up three hits and walking one while striking out three. David Wolff came on in relief and got the win with one scoreless inning. The Tigers out-hit the Blue Thunder, 113. McHenry 6-7, Hononegah 11-5: At Rockton, Nick Lahrman went 2 for 4 and also threw four strong innings for the Warriors (5-2) won their second game against the Indians for a nonconference split. Ian Grubich got the win in that game and Patrick Humphrey picked up

the save. Colton Klein was 2 for 3 with two RBIs and Justin Celeski was 3 for 3 with an RBI. McHenry managed only three hits in the first game, with Matt Spooner going 2 for 4. Matt Nagel, Mike Lasiewicz and Brendon Lopresti each drove in runs for the Warriors. Marengo 4-13, Larkin 10-7: At Elgin, the Indians (2-4) broke the second game open with six runs in the top of the 10th inning to gain a doubleheader split with the Royals. Jake Lasota was 4 for 6 with a double and an RBI in the second game. Mike Villarreal was 2 for 4 with an RBI and John Henning finished the game with three scoreless innings for the win. Josh Sheahan doubled and knocked in two runs in the first game. Alex Schirmer took the loss for the Indians in the opener. Hampshire 9, Belvidere 2: At Hampshire, Noah Schrader drove in two runs to lead Hampshire (4-3) in a win over Belvidere. Byran Diete, Jacob Trevino and Matthew Wians also drove in runs for the Whip-Purs. Kevin Michaelsen went 2 for 3 as the Whip-Purs collected eight hits. Byran Diete earned the win with two innings of scoreless relief work. Prospect 1, Huntley 0: At Huntley, Jeff Heinrich went 2 for 3 with a double, but the Red Raiders (3-3) were shutout in a

1-0 loss to Prospect. Denny Smith and Brad Model also had hits for Huntley. Kyle Morgan started on the mound and took the loss despite giving up only one run on five hits in four innings. Cam Reed threw three no-hit innings of relief.

SOFTBALL McHenry 4, Grant 2: Alex Martens went

2 for 2 with a pair of doubles, two runs scored and an RBI to lead McHenry to a nonconference win. Also powering the Warriors (3-2) at the plate were Lexi Larson (2 for 3, RBI, run) and Paige Rauhut (2 for 3, two RBIs). Rauhut pitched all seven innings for McHenry, giving up two runs on seven hits, while striking out eight and walking no one. Marian Central 6, Wauconda 2: At Woodstock, Maddie Peters went 1 for 3 with a run scored, two RBIs and a double to lead Marian Central (1-0) in a season-opening win over Wauconda.

Bulls guard Derrick Rose drives to the basket on Atlanta Hawks guard Jeff Teague during the first half Monday at the United Center. over the weekend this team just wasn’t good enough, and reiterated that. “Talent’s not everything,” Dunleavy said. “It’s about playing together, it’s about chemistry and some synergy, and those are things we’ve struggled

rick Rose missed a layup for the lead, as Atlanta again went to the free-throw line. After Butler’s missed three with 27 seconds left, Atlanta’s Jeff Teague all but iced the game with 22 seconds left, making both of his free throws to make it a five-point lead. All but being the key for Teague, as Butler hit a 3 and was fouled for a fourpoint play with 19.7 seconds left. Kyle Korver was fouled with 13.6 seconds left, and the former Bulls sharp-shooter made both, keeping the lead to three. Dunleavy’s missed layup with seven seconds left, however, again put Teague at the line, as the remaining life was squeezed out when Teague made both. “The second quarter where we had a double-digit lead to start and let them take the lead by halftime,” coach Fred Hoiberg said of the turning point. “But we went down swinging. That’s something we talked about. Stay together and keep fighting. Again, I’m proud of how they went down swinging.” The “do or die” week continues Tuesday, as the Bulls travel to Indiana. “We need [help],” Rose said of their situation in the standings. “The reality is we’re fighting for a playoff spot and we’re trying to figure out things along the way.”

VEGAS 16 TOURNAMENT: UC SANTA BARBARA 70, NORTHERN ILLINOIS 63

Huskies’ fast start fizzles in first-round loss By W.G. RAMIREZ

sports@nwherald.com LAS VEGAS – UC Santa Barbara hadn’t won a postseason game since the 1990 NCAA Tournament, when it defeated Houston in the first round. Michigan State, featuring a young guard named Mark Montgomery, eliminated the Gauchos, who went on to suffer through a 26-year dry spell without a postseason win. That drought ended Monday, at the expense of Montgomery’s Northern Illinois Huskies. In the opening round of the inaugural Vegas 16 Tournament at the Mandalay Bay Events Center, Santa Barbara used a furious second-half rally to defeat the Huskies, 70-63. “I think we played unbelievable basketball in the first half, but as I told them at halftime, you have to still close,” Montgomery said. “They started the second half making a run, and it

seemed like we couldn’t defend without making a foul. And we struggled to score in the second half. It seemed like we couldn’t get consecutive baskets, which kind of hurt us.” Marshawn Wilson led the Huskies with 14 points, while Aaric Armstead had his fifth career double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds. Levi Bradley added 10 points for NIU. Although the Huskies limited Michael Bryson, who led the Big West in scoring with 18.4 points a game, to only nine points, Gabe Vincent erupted for 20, hitting 6 of 12 from the field, including 4 of 8 from 3-point range. Sam Beeler chipped in 16 points for the Gauchos. “In the second half, we didn’t control the tempo, and I think that was a major thing that we didn’t do,” Armstead said. “I think we did a pretty good job on Bryson, it was just a matter of some of the other players stepping up.” Trailing 43-32 at halftime, Santa Barbara (18-13) opened the second half

on a 9-2 run to cut NIU’s lead to four, 45-41. The Huskies (21-12) scored a quick three points to extend their lead to seven, but the Gauchos responded with a 5-0 run to pull within two, 48-46. The teams continued to trade baskets until the 6:16 mark, when Santa Barbara completed its comeback. And as the Gauchos used a 7-0 run to take their first lead since a 4-0 start to the game, NIU suffered through a 2-for-10 drought. The Huskies, who led by 15 with a little more than two minutes left in the first half, shot a dismal 25.9 percent (7 of 27) in the second half after opening the game hitting 51.9 percent (14 of 27) from the floor. “I thought we were taking decent shots, we rushed some, but the ball has to go in the basket if you’re going to advance in any tournament,” Montgomery said. “You coach player movement, ball movement – have some patience. Unfortunately, we didn’t have enough of it. And they went on their

run, but we didn’t get a chance to make our run. “When you shoot 25 percent you need a lot of other things to go your way.” The Gauchos, who outscored NIU, 32-24, in the paint, closed the game on a 6-0 run to ice the game after the Huskies pulled within one, 64-63, with 1:51 left. The loss brings an end to the Huskies’ winningest season since 1990-91, when it won a school-record 25 games. The Huskies’ 21 wins are tied for the second-most in a single season, in school history. “I’m proud of my guys, they gave everything they could have to put NIU basketball back on the map,” Montgomery said. “We get invited to a tournament like this, we had some nationally televised games, we finished over .500 in the league and our three leading scorers are all underclassmen ... we have a promising future ahead of us.”

CHICAGO – Team meetings aren’t saving these Bulls. Did they show more life in the eventual 102-100 loss to Atlanta on Monday night? Without question. There was effort, there was fight, but there was also another big slap of reality. As much as the Sunday heart-toheart team meeting was supposed to plug some leaks, what they still can’t escape from is the fact the Bulls’ front office completely overvalued this roster. By the way, it is a roster that has now lost four consecutive games, slipping 2½ games behind idle Detroit for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, and tied with Washington at 36-37 with nine games left. Heck, Mike Dunleavy even admitted

with. Quite frankly, not just this year, but in years past, so it doesn’t surprise me. But also I don’t think we can’t get over it. I don’t think we can’t move past it and be better, and win enough games to get in.” When asked whether the front office did overvalue the talent on the roster, Dunleavy said, “I think honestly they’re the ones that made those comments and put the team together. That’s a question for them. That’s not a question for me. I’ll defer to them on that one.” What couldn’t be deferred was a second-quarter meltdown by the Bulls, after they opened the game by outscoring Atlanta 31-22 in the first. The Hawks (45-30) took back control of the game in that second quarter, putting up 30 points while holding the Bulls to 14. Still, the Bulls found themselves in it late, showing a pulse that had been absent all last week. Jimmy Butler’s 3-pointer and then a dunk by Pau Gasol cut the Atlanta lead to four points with 4:33 left in the game. Aaron Brooks made it a onepoint game with a 3 of his own, putting the Hawks on the ropes, and then tied the score with a layup a minute later. Atlanta’s Kent Bazemore, however, split a pair of free throws with 1:06 left, putting the lead back to one, but Der-

WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

Danks, Latos fail to impress in Arizona By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

– Sale is under team control through 2019, Quintana through 2020 and Rodon just completed his rookie year – would be a better option than Latos right now. But the Sox aren’t going to push the 22-year-old, who needs more than 22 minor-league innings and five Cactus League appearances to establish a meaningful base. He’ll start the season at Double-A BirMat Latos mingham. “Carson had an outstanding camp,’’ general manager Rick Hahn said, “not just throwing the ball well but fitting in, taking to the coaches, being comfortable and taking to the cutter that was added this spring. But to project him into 2016 would be an extremely quick development path.’’ Sale and Rodon, high first-rounders themselves, were moved along the fast track – Sale getting 21 relief appearances the year he was drafted but spending his first full year in the bullpen and Rodon made 23 starts the year after he was picked – but the Sox don’t

want to push Fulmer hard just because it worked for those two. “He shows you a lot of similarities in terms of the ability and makeup that we saw from Chris and Carlos,’’ Hahn said, “so I get the speculation that he could contribute, and it may well be the case in 2016. But to expect it is probably still being a little aggressive.’’ Danks is in the final year of a fiveyear, $65 million deal, and Latos is on a one-year deal. And with Fulmer on the rise, the back-of-the-rotation-concern storyline figures to fade away with them. The storyline growing momentum is the Sox’ young, talented and – thanks to long-term deals worked out by Hahn for Sale and Quintana – cost effective rotation, with depth. “It’s essential to grow front end starting pitching internally, just given the cost we’ve seen that type of premium talent go for on the open market,’’ Hahn said. “It’s far more cost effective for us to grow it and augment that roster externally. To be in a position, perhaps not in 2016 but in 2017 and beyond of having Sale, Quintana, Rodon, Fulmer and others coming gives you a good base to build off of.’’

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – In Chris Sale, Jose Quintana and Carlos Rodon, the White Sox have a perennial Cy Young candidate, perhaps the most underrated starter in baseball and a budding star who, as a group, rate as one of the best starting trios in baseball. What happens next, in the 4 and 5 spots of the rotation, is another story, one that could go a long way in making or breaking the Sox in 2016. John Danks, since his shoulder surgery, is a 4.75 ERA pitcher. Mat Latos, coming off health issues of his own, like Danks has an accomplished top-ofthe-rotation past. Latos’ second rough start in as many Cactus League outings Sunday (he’s given up 13 runs over 82/3 innings) was cause for alarm, considering there isn’t much in the way of options after Erik Johnson struggled

and was sent out to minor league camp March 21 and Jacob Turner, signed for $1.5 million in the offseason, failed to distinguish himself as well. Johnson and Turner’s struggles made the Latos signing look even more important, for a relatively inexpensive $3 million, on Feb. 9. The Sox would be feeling better about it if he showed more. “It’s getting close John Danks to the end,’’ manager Robin Ventura said of Latos on Monday. “We have to pick it up.’’ Danks, after breezing through two consecutive scoreless outings of five and six innings, had a more typical outing Monday, giving up four runs on eight hits over six innings. After giving up an alarming three consecutive homers, he retired 12 of the last 13 Rockies he faced. There are those who say 2015 No. 8 overall pick Carson Fulmer, who handled his first major league camp with aplomb and helps paint a nice long-term picture for the Sox rotation

12 CUBS SPRING TRAINING

Baez’s thumb looks like last concern Availability for Opening Day still in doubt By PATRICK FINLEY

pfinley@suntimes.com

TEMPE, Ariz. – The Cubs’ last piece of spring drama hinges on Javy Baez’s left thumb. Rather than face the Angels on Monday at Tempe Diablo Stadium, as the utilityman had once hoped, Baez simply played catch in front of Cubs officials at the team’s training facility. Baez jammed his thumb sliding into first base March 16, and last played in a game March 20. Neither fact bodes well for him starting the season with the team Monday in Anaheim. “The concern is that he has not had enough at-bats, that he’s not played enough in the outfield, at different positions in the outfield. …,” manager Joe

Maddon said. “So yes, we need to try to figure out how we want to process all that right now.” Baez has made the team on merit, Maddon said. At issue is whether he’ll start the season on the disabled list. If so, he could stay in Mesa to get extra at-bats and rejoin the team when they play at the DiamondJavy Baez backs starting April 7. “We’re attempting to create an 11th hour to get this whole thing done with Javy,” Maddon said. “Getting more definition about Javy is really important right now.” Maddon spoke with president Theo Epstein and general manager Jed Hoyer about his options, and said they need to choose one soon. That could be Munenori Kawasaki or Tommy LaStella, both infielders, or out-of-options outfielder Matt Szczur. The Cubs could keep an extra hitter if they bring only seven relievers to Opening Day, Maddon was more concerned, however, with how his substitutions – from defensive moves to pinch runners to

double switches – line up after that. “If, in fact he’s unable to go, and say it were Kawasaki, then what would you need after that?” he said. “And that’s how these other pieces will fit. Because Baez was there to fulfill a lot of different roles. … “Knowing what Javy’s up to matters a lot.” Starting infielders Kris Bryant and Ben Zobrist give him some flexibility, though. Zobrist has played at least 100 career games at shortstop, second base, right field and left field. Bryant, who played 19 games in the outfield last year, moved from third base to left field midway through Monday’s 8-8 tie against the Angels. “You don’t have to play them a lot in the outfield,” Maddon said, “for them to be comfortable in the outfield.” He’ll have one of his outfield options back soon enough. Center fielder Dexter Fowler injured his left side, Maddon said, when he crashed into a wall Saturday. He was removed Sunday after one inning – and after a home run – when tightness didn’t go away. “It was more precaution,” Fowler

said. “I feel good today. I feel a lot better.” Maddon said Fowler looks stronger and is motivated by lingering on the free agent market until late February. Maddon first thought Fowler was essential when he signed, and that sentiment has only grown. “Everything felt good to that point,” Maddon said, “but all of a sudden, everything felt right. “I don’t know that we knew how important that piece was until that came back to us.” The fact that Fowler’s injury wasn’t caused by rotating his body is a good sign. Still, he didn’t play Monday. “If there was something to worry about, I’d be worried,” Fowler said. “And I’m not worried at all.” The same can’t be said about Cubs and Baez. “If you don’t have him,” Maddon said, “you have to be more creative regarding how you’re gonna shuffle a late inning defensive replacement, how you’re gonna shuffle pinch running, who’s gonna be available, who you want for those roles. “So that’s why he is so important, being all of those things.
