Good morning, McHenry County ...

Let’s have an election night office pool Clearly, the most popular office pools in March are those involving brackets and the NCAA men’s basketball tournament.

Our election night office pools pale in comparison, whether they are in March or not, but that doesn’t make them any less competitive.

I thought it might be fun to have an election pool of our own – me versus our readers.

We’re not throwing in a buck or two each – that would be illegal.

Instead, the winner will get the satisfaction of being McHenry County’s top (or luckiest) political analyst and a giant shout-out in this space.

Here are the rules. I’ll ask five questions, including a tiebreaker question, and the person with the most correct answers wins. Pretty simple, correct? Your entry will be due by 9

SERVICES FOR SENIORS HURT

BY IMPASSE

Local agencies are owed thousands of dollars amid Ill. budget standoff

By CAITLIN SWIECA

cswieca@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Upon finding out last May that the state would not have a budget prepared for the start of its fiscal year in July, Kim Larson began planning for the loss of cash flow she knew Family Alliance would face.

The agency was able to allocate its resources, including reserve funds and a line of credit, until December before its officials finally went to the McHenry County’s Senior Services Grant Commission and asked for its grant payments to be made monthly rather than quarterly.

“To not receive any revenue in the door for three or four months makes things difficult,” said Larson, the agency’s executive director.

The county approved the changed schedule, but Family Alliance still is low on funds: The state of Illinois currently owes the agency $118,000 for its adult day services programs, Larson said.

Administrators are working to try to prevent cuts to service, but Larson said the agency may eventually have to start a wait list for certain programs or reduce transportation services.

It’s not the only agency serving seniors that has suffered from legislators’ inability to pass a budget. A January study from United Way of Illinois found 26 percent of senior service agencies had made cuts as a result of the budget impasse.

The overall percentage of social service agencies reporting they had made cuts to clients served increased from 34 percent in July 2015 to 85 percent in January 2016.

In January, Lutheran Social Services of Illinois cut more than 750 jobs and 30 programs because of a lack of funding, with the biggest cuts coming to senior services.

Those involved with local agencies say McHenry County seniors are actually in better shape than those in the rest of the state because of the 0.025 percent tax approved in a 2003 referendum that helps fund social and transportation services for seniors.

Money collected from that tax goes into the Senior Service Grant fund, which provides about $1.7 million annually to nonprofit agencies.

Hans Mach, community develop-

ment administrator with the fund, said he anticipates more applications in the coming grant cycle because of the lack of state money.

“The money is local. It’s already in the coffers for the county,” Mach said. “As a fundraiser in my prior life, it was more desirable to go for local money rather than state because we know for years you can’t count on that.”

LOCAL NEWS LOCAL BRIEF Hebron Township asks for tax to go to cemetery

Hebron Township is asking voters on the March 15 ballot to approve a new tax to maintain the one cemetery the township is responsible for.

It costs about $9,500 a year to maintain the grounds and buy miscellaneous supplies needed for the Linn-Hebron Cemetery on Hillside Road, Hebron Township Supervisor Paul Musgrave said.

“There’s no revenue really coming in from that cemetery, but there’s maintenance fees that have to be paid,” Musgrave said.

He said the additional 0.0002 percent item on residents’ property tax bills would cost about $8 more for the owner of a $150,000 home.

If approved, the new tax would give the township what it needs in yearly maintenance fees, and would not increase, Musgrave said. He said currently there is no tax going toward the cemetery.

MARENGO

“The Blind Side” actor Quinton Aaron hugs McKenzie Human of Marengo during a fundraiser Saturday at Glo-Bowl Fun Center in Marengo.

Through his foundation, Aaron speaks out against bullying, which is something he experienced in his childhood.

Actor runs anti-bullying campaign

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com MARENGO – Thirty-one-year-old Quinton Aaron went from almost being homeless to starring in the 2009 film “The Blind Side.” His greatest accomplishment so far, however, is starting The Quinton Aaron Foundation, he said.

The actor, who portrayed Michael Oher in the movie about his journey from poverty to the NFL, spoke to students at Grant Intermediate School and Marengo Community Middle School on Monday about his anti-bullying organization.

Aside from sharing some behind-thescenes information on what it was like to work alongside Sandra Bullock, Aaron emphasized to students the importance of speaking up if someone is being bullied and doing whatever students set their minds to.

“One of the missions of my foundation is to reach the kids that are on the verge of being at risk as far as harming themselves or others due to being bullied or not feeling loved or wanted,” Aaron said after the assembly.

The foundation started in 2012 when Aaron started working with David Tyler, the foundation’s executive director, us-

Before speaking at the school, Aaron had already made a few stops in Woodstock and Crystal Lake over the weekend, and bowled at Marengo Glo-Bowl Fun Center on Saturday.

Aaron travels with the foundation in his free time when he’s not working on movies, he said. He lives in Los Angeles and the Tampa area now, and grew up in the Bronx, where he was bullied as a child.

“It’s never a fun thing to feel like you don’t belong or to feel like people don’t like you, and for those of you that do bully, try putting yourself in these other kids’ positions,” Aaron said to the audience.

He also advised students who have been cyberbullied to block and delete any comments or people who are being mean online.

“Don’t let those things defeat you,”

Aaron said.

Fifth-grade teacher at Grant Intermediate School Cindy Mecum said the students had watched some clips of the movie and interviews of Aaron before the assembly.

“I think that it’s an awesome reference for them,” Mecum said of Aaron. “Look at this man who was bullied at some point, no matter how big or small, and how much he always worked toward his dream.”

One of Mecum’s students, 10-year-old Amanda Trotz, said she was looking forward to watching “The Blind Side” again, and said Aaron gave good advice on telling parents if someone is being bullied.

“Sometimes you get nervous to tell your parents things, and you don’t want to get in trouble, but for him to say that, that really helped,” Trotz said.

Aaron told students that at first, he was afraid of telling his mother about the people who chased him and beat him up after school. Telling adults and not letting the bullying get to him, though, helped him achieve his dream of being an actor.

“Always believe in yourselves and what you want to do,” Aaron said.

“There’s no rule that says that you can’t make your dreams a reality, because I’m living mine, so I’m living proof of that.”

Serwatka drops out of race for 66th Ill. House District Endorses fellow candidate Allen Skillicorn

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com Calling himself outspent and at risk of splitting the fiscal conservative vote a week before the March 15 primary, candidate Paul Serwatka withdrew from the Republican race for the 66th Illinois House District and is endorsing fellow candidate Allen Skillicorn.

Serwatka, of Lakewood, said he is being too far outspent to have a path to victory, and said that he was concerned that he and Skillicorn would split enough votes to allow McHenry County Board member Carolyn Schofield, whom he alleges is not a true fiscal conservative, to clinch the primary.

“I believe I was the stronger candidate, the better candidate, but I’m not splitting the vote … this race was bigger than me,” Serwatka said. “It was about trying to effect real reform and save our state, and if that means we don’t split the vote and keep Carolyn Schofield from getting the seat, then I did a good thing.”

Along with Dan Wilbrandt, the four candidates are seeking to replace state Rep. Mike Tryon, R-Crystal Lake, who is not seeking re-election.

Skillicorn in a statement said he is “honored to have Paul’s confidence and support.”

“I look forward to continuing the fight for liberty and conservative principles,” said Skillicorn, of East Dundee.

Serwatka has run a self-funded campaign portraying himself as a lone outsider fighting three establishment

politicians.

But he said the $100,000 of his own money he contributed could not match what his opponents have received, especially in the days after the Northwest Herald wrote about his plan to donate his first year’s state lawmaker salary to a fund to get tax fighters elected to local governments in the 66th District.

Since that story ran Allen Feb. 23, Schofield reSkillicorn ceived $53,900 from the political action committee of the Illinois Education Association, $40,000 from Republican state Sen. Pam Althoff’s campaign and $5,000 from Tryon’s – he has endorsed Schofield, of Crystal Lake, to succeed him.

Liberty Principles PAC, which is supporting Skillicorn, has spent more than $150,000 in the past week alone on

television ads for him, according to Illinois State Board of Elections reports.

The PAC created by conservative radio host Dan Proft also is publishing the McHenry Times, a political mailer that looks like a newspaper, which runs pro-Skillicorn articles.

To Schofield, who defended her fiscal conservative bona fides compared to her opponents through her County Board votes, the big story of the election has become what she alleges is outside money, distorted truths and dirty tricks.

“This race really has become about Dan Proft and dark money and these tactics, trying to buy the race,” Schofield said.

Serwatka flatly denied that his withdrawal has anything to do with a recent McHenry Times article alleging that he accidentally shot a friend with a .22-caliber handgun in 1999.

He called the article inaccurate and said it is contradicted by the very sworn affidavits that have been circulated since last summer to state and local Republican officials in an effort to thwart his campaign.

“This was no secret. It went everywhere. It’s old news by this point.

It didn’t hurt me then, and it wasn’t about to hurt me now,” Serwatka said.

Wilbrandt, of West Dundee, reported having $32,361 on hand at the end of last year.

Last Thursday, he received a $2,500 donation from the campaign of state Rep. Barbara Wheeler, R-Crystal Lake, and a $2,000 donation from the campaign coffers of outgoing McHenry County State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi – Wilbrandt is an assistant state’s attorney.

8 HUNTLEY

LAKE IN THE HILLS

Sherwin Williams to Police to host free Teen get building redesign Safety Series next month

By CAITLIN SWIECA

cswieca@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – The developer of a proposed Sherwin Williams store on Route 47 will have to make changes to the planned building after the Committee of the Whole criticized the design as too bland.

The 3,500-square-foot retail building is being proposed by Vernick & Associates Ltd. for a piece of land just south of the recently constructed Culver’s restaurant at 12950 Route 47, Huntley.

Village trustees did not raise any issues with the store itself but wanted to see changes made to the design.

“We’re trying to showcase the whole area,” Trustee Ronda Goldman said. “When you look at it, it’s just one big box.”

Other trustees echoed that statement, noting the building would be one of the first drivers would see when they are driving into Huntley from the south.

Suggestions from trustees included making the Sherwin Williams sign bigger and adding windows.

Developer Kevin Vernick said the suggestion to add windows to the north and south sides of the store would not work because Sherwin Williams planned to put its displays along those walls.

“If you look at the Rookie’s and the Starbucks building and the Sleepy’s building, we really tailored it after those buildings,” Vernick said. “I’m surprised to hear some of the comments because we did it in an effort to match what you’ve got out there currently.”

Huntley Director of Development Services Charles Nordman said at the meeting this design was the third the petitioner had submitted in an effort to align with the village’s guidelines.

Village President Charles Sass said the village would “get it done” but sent the developer back to spruce up a new design for presentation.

cswieca@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – The Lake in the Hills Police Department will present a free three-part Teen Safety Series for those ages 12 to 16 in April.

Deputy Chief of Support Services Mary Frake said the department first offered the course last year and decided to offer it again after getting a good turnout and positive feedback.

The series originally was planned after participants in a women’s safety series suggested that a class for teenagers would be helpful.

Frake said the department considered the suggestion and realized it had seen an increase in incidents related to social media.

Starting with that topic, they developed a course incorporating other issues teenagers might face in the coming years of their lives.

“We realized kids don’t want to be lectured,” Frake said. “What we did was try to bring together people who

Among the other topics that will be covered are the effects of alcohol and drugs, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking, bullying and peer pressure. Frake said the boys and girls in the class are separated only for the conversation about dating violence.

By C.R. Walker Livingston “Liv” Taylor is bringing his mix of blues, country, bluegrass and folk music to the Raue Center on Saturday, March 12 at 8 p.m.

Taylor, who is the brother of five-time Grammy winner, James Taylor, has been performing for over 40 years, getting his start touring with several major artists, including Fleetwood Mac, Jimmy Buffett, Linda Rondstadt and Jethro Tull.

He’s recorded several Top 40 hits, including, “I Will Be in Love with You,” “I’ll Come Running,” “I Can Dream of You” and “Boatmen,” the latter two which were recorded with his brother James.

After first picking up a guitar at the age of 13, Taylor has seemingly always had it by his side as songwriter, performer and teacher.

Guests are in for quite the treat as Livingston will not only perform plenty of

music, but will share personal stories about life as a musician, allowing him to connect with the audience. Talented in a wide-range of genres, including pop, gospel and jazz, as well as the aforementioned blues, country, bluegrass and folk, Taylor’s performances are certain to please everyone, whether through a touching ballad or one of his many stories in between songs.

Born in Boston and raised in North Carolina, Livingston is also a professor at Berklee College of Music, where he has taught for over 25 years. The discipline in his Stage Performance course teaches young musicians valuable lessons about life on the road, experiences that Livingston has endured during his long and illustrious career.

His latest album, “Blue Sky” was released in 2014. His other recent releases include 2009’s “Last Alaska Moon” and 2005’s “There You Are Again.” His catalogue dates back to his self-titled debut in 1970.

Taylor, who describes himself as a pop singer, tours solo. He will sing and play the guitar and piano.

Dem nominee to run against Hultgren in Nov. On the Web

By BRENDA SCHORY

Walz said the makeup of Congress needs to change, with Democrats as the majority, as well as having a Democrat in the White House.

All three Democrats said they were pro-abortion rights.

“I am very prochoice,” Walz said. “It amazes me that there’s a party in Washington Jim Walz – that wants small government, but it seems as though when it comes to women’s health, they want to butt into their life. … It’s amazing that older, whiter men want to dictate to women to … make their decisions Rep. Randy that are so personal and Hultgren so emotional. It’s just embarrassing to watch, as a man.”

Hosta said he agreed with what most Americans believe, that women in the third trimester should not have abortions.

“I think funding should be increased to help them have children in their third trimester,” Hosta said. “I don’t think abortion should be happening in the third trimester.”

Although he arrived late, Maggitt joined the other two in saying that he was pro-abortion rights.

Maggitt said as a former combat medic, he spent time bringing babies into the world.

“I don’t get to tell a woman what to do with her body – just as my body belongs to me,” Maggitt said. “I respect that.”

ST. CHARLES – Three Democrats are seeking their party’s nomination for the 14th Congressional District in the March 15 primary.

John Hosta of Spring Grove, Jesse Lee Maggitt of Plainfield and Jim Walz of Gurnee all say they could do a better job in Congress than incumbent U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Plano, who is unopposed in the Republican primary.

The primary winner will run against Hultgren in the Nov. 8 general election.

Each candidate spoke at a recent forum hosted by the League of Women Voters for Central Kane County. About 30 people attended the forum, John Hosta held at the Kane County Branch Court in St. Charles.

Hosta said he sees the nation in trade policies that do not benefit the country.

“I started my own Jesse Lee business and know what Maggitt it means to balance a budget,” Hosta said. “One of the main reasons I’m running is we’ve lost 8 million overseas manufacturing jobs, which has contributed approximately half-billion to a billion [dollar] loss of revenue to our government.”

Hosta said the job loss has affected the middle class.

Walz said he was running because the middle class was “woefully under-represented.”

“It seems like only the big money gets attention, and that does not seem quite right to me,” Walz said. “I want to be [the] representative of the 14th District because of the disastrous Citizens United decision, where corporations are now considered people and money is now considered speech. That is a cancer on democracy.”

Ann Kohl of Woodstock (right) and Sharon Jacobsen of Algonquin write letters to local lawmakers addressing the Illinois budget issue. Local seniors are concerned that the lack of funding for services such as Senior Services Associates will lead to the agency being discontinued. The letter writing campaign was held Friday at the Senior Services Associates building in Crystal Lake.

• BUDGET

“We’ve kind of had to deal with lower reimbursement and managing trying to balance our budget for several years with decreased funding, but we’ve done it.”

Continued from page A3 has five locations in three counties including in Crystal Lake and McHenry, also is owed funds from the state.

Executive Director Bette Schoenholtz said in February the state owed the agency $1.2 million in addition to $394,000 in matching funds from a federal grant.

On Feb. 29, state representatives told the agency that $633,000 of those funds would be coming in March, although the agency has not received them yet.

Even if that money is received, the agency still is about $1 million short in state funds to serve its clients, which include 6,000 in McHenry County.

Among the affected services are abuse investigations, self-neglect clients, home service clients, a nursing home deflection program and retired senior volunteer program.

Schoenholtz said the agency has already cut three and a half positions and dipped into its reserves. She worries that anxiety over the programs could put clients at great risk for medical issues such as high blood pressure and heart attacks.

“They’re vulnerable,” Schoenholtz

Kim Larson

Family Alliance executive director

A local senior puts her letter expressing how important Senior Services Associates is into an envelope to be mailed to local representatives. said of the affected clients. “We’re not likely to look and say, ‘We should just cut this program.’ The problem is, to even say you’re going to do it with less staff, there’s certain ones you really can’t do with any less staff.”

What’s kept the agency relatively healthy, Schoenholtz said, is the fact it has been “hoarding money” for at least five years because of the constant

state uncertainty. Even those funds, however, aren’t designed to withstand this long of an impasse.

Even before the budget crisis, Larson pointed out reimbursement rates have not increased since 2007 for mental health programs and since 2009 for adult day care.

“We’ve kind of had to deal with lower reimbursement and managing

trying to balance our budget for several years with decreased funding, but we’ve done it,” Larson said. “I think that’s part of the problem: We do such a good job of it they think we’re going to continue doing it.”

Schoenholtz and Larson said they’d both just like to know what funds they can count on getting so they can at least plan for future budget. With no end to the standoff in sight, however, social service officials remain frustrated.

“This is not the first year they haven’t had a budget,” Mach said. “It’s almost like we’re the laughingstock of the nation at this point. It’s like, ‘Come on, we’ve got to get our act together.’ ”

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – If you express your feelings and plans, you will gain acceptance and support from those in a position to help. Taking an alternative route doesn’t have to isolate you if you mix what others have to offer into your game plan.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You’ll instinctively know what others want and what’s expected of you. Reuniting with an old colleague who shares a common interest or goal with you will be prosperous.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – High energy, charisma and pizzazz coupled with know-how, insight and the fortitude to get things up and running

will draw attention. Make romance a priority and celebrate your good fortune.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Ask and you shall receive. Let your curiosity lead the way, and share your thoughts. Love is in the stars, and showing your emotions openly will entice someone special.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Invest in your skills, knowledge and ability to make money. Spend more time reaching your goals instead of helping someone else get ahead. Don’t aim for popularity when you should aim for victory.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Emotional sensitivity will put you in a unique position. You will be able to sense what others want or are thinking, allowing you to manipulate any situation you face.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Focus inward and do your best to explore and expand interests that will help you get ahead personally or professionally.

Invest in one of your ideas and watch it blossom.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – You’ll get a window of opportunity to present something you’ve longed to do for some time. Preparation is everything along with presentation. Celebrate your success with someone you love.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Indecisiveness will not help you win favors or coax people to support your efforts. Get your act together before you share your plans with anyone you’d like to have on your team.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Interacting with people from all walks of life will allow you to

gather interesting data that can help give a unique twist to one of your current projects.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Don’t let anyone coerce you into something you know you shouldn’t be doing. Focus on home, family and improvements you can make to add comfort and convenience to your lifestyle.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Surprise everyone with your creativity at work and home, but also be sure to remain grounded in practicality.

Someone who has qualities that balance your life will show interest.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – With a little discipline and a lot of hands-on work, you will accomplish your goals and make a significant difference to people influenced by the changes you make.

Prosecutors look into vote-buying allegations

By DON BABWIN

The Associated Press CHICAGO – In a city where voter fraud is part of local lore, prosecutors are examining allegations by a Chicago alderman and others that campaign workers are paying people to vote for a Democrat involved in one of Illinois’ most contentious legislative elections.

Sally Daly, a spokeswoman for Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez, said Monday that the office’s election unit is “looking into” a complaint against state Rep. Ken Dunkin of Chicago. The complaint was first lodged

by Alderman Pat Dowell, a supporter of Dunkin’s opponent in the Democrat-

Student loan scams new to list of top consumer woes

CHICAGO – Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan said student borrowers dealing with mounting loan debt are a new addition to her annual list of consumer complaints.

Madigan released the top-ten list on Monday. She said consumer debt and identity theft were ranked numbers one and two for the eighth year in a row. But she said this year her office received more than 1,500 complaints about student loan servicers and for-profit schools.

Education-related complaints came in seventh on this year’s list. Madigan said the ranking reflects the growing student loan debt crisis. She said her office will “continue to combat the many scams targeting these students.”

Other complaints included telemarketers, construction, used vehicle sales and Internet or mail-order products. Madigan’s office said it received more than 25,000 complaints last year.

Mattoon health office to close over budget problems

MATTOON – A county health department in central Illinois said it will close one of its offices because of the state’s ongoing budget crisis.

ic primary who on Sunday released videos that she said were made by “volunteers” who entered a Dunkin campaign office to secretly record the payments.

A spokesman for Dunkin has called the accusations “baseless.”

One video, reportedly made inside a Dunkin campaign office, shows workers apparently making payments with $50 bills.

A second one, on the sidewalk outside a building sporting Dunkin campaign signs, records a conversation with a woman who appears to be giving directions to a man about how he can make money if he votes a certain way. The Associated Press could not

immediately verify the authenticity of the videos.

Dunkin, who represents a predominantly Democratic district, has drawn criticism from fellow Democrats for supporting Republican legislation.

He has been the spoiler for Democrats on several key votes affecting union allies, either by being absent or voting against party-led attempts to weaken Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner’s position in negotiations with the state workers’ union.

His opponent in Illinois’ March 15 primary, Juliana Stratton, received a rare endorsement Monday from President Barack Obama, who recorded radio and TV ads supporting her in

the race.

Secretary of State Jesse White, another Democrat who supports Stratton, told the AP Monday after watching the videos that “it is clear that bribery was taking place.”

“I’m disappointed in him (Dunkin),” said White, who was re-elected for his fifth term in 2014. “Shame on him.”

In Illinois, vote buying is a Class 4 felony.

Dunkin did not immediately returned calls from the AP for comment.

In a statement to the Chicago SunTimes on Sunday, a spokesman said the allegations were part of “desperate tactics” and “dirty tricks” by Stratton’s supporters.

The Mattoon Journal-Gazette reported that the Coles County Health Department plans to close its Mattoon office on Tuesday. The department’s main office in Charleston will remain open.

Administrator Diana Stenger said the department is owed $169,000 by the state, primarily from the Illinois Department of Public Health.

Illinois has been without a state budget for the fiscal year that began in July amid an impasse between Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and the majority-Democrat Legislature.

“The day of the shooting we lost half of our kids. This is a room that’s fully ready to go. You got infants, toddlers and preschool. This would be a preschool room, and now this room is empty.”

Neither the day care nor the church, which lost about 75 percent of its membership, has ever recovered, Brown said.

As many as 45 witnesses are expected to testify during the trial at the Winnebago County Criminal Justice Center. The trial is expected to last one to three weeks.

Rockford Police Department officers Oda Poole and Stan North on Aug. 24, 2009, chased Barmore into the church and trapped him in a boiler room.

A confrontation ensued as Poole and North forced open a door to the boiler room. Barmore was shot at least four times during what North and Poole said was a struggle for Poole’s firearm.

According to an investigation by the Cook County Integrity Task Force and the state police, a Winnebago County Grand Jury did not indict the officers, and authorities determined the shooting a justified use of force.

said Delilah Cleveland was the mother of both Darryl Cleveland, a sophomore at Freeport High School, and Jonathan White.

The Rockford Register Star reported that the vehicle in which they were traveling left the roadway, hit a guard rail and bridge abutment, and caught fire around 2:30 a.m. Sunday.

A fourth passenger who was sitting in the backseat survived the crash.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation.

Jury selected in Rockford police shooting trial

ROCKFORD – A jury was selected Monday to hear a lawsuit filed against the city of Rockford by a church where police shot and killed an unarmed black man in 2009.

Kingdom Authority International Ministries Church is seeking compensation for emotional distress suffered by children and day care operators who were present when Mark Anthony Barmore was killed. The church also claims it lost revenue after the shooting. Opening statements are expected Tuesday.

The Rev. Melvin Brown told the Rockford Register Star that about 150 children were enrolled at the day care when the shooting occurred, compared with 50 children today.

“This room here has been empty since the shooting,” said the Rev. Melvin Brown during an interview last week, indicating the church day care’s brightly equipped and decorated preschool room that once accommodated 16 children.

Sotomayor: Scalia like an annoying brother

URBANA – U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor said the late Justice Antonin Scalia was like the brother she sometimes “wanted to kill” but loved and misses.

Sotomayor told a crowd at the University of Illinois College of Law on Monday that the politically conservative Scalia often said things “just to annoy me.”

But the liberal-leaning Sotomayor said that despite their disagreements, “on a personal level, he was very warm.”

Scalia died Feb. 13 at age 79.

His death has left the court evenly divided between four liberal justices and four conservatives.

Republicans in the U.S. Senate have vowed not to confirm anyone President Barack Obama nominates to fill the open seat.

Sotomayor did not discuss the opening on the court and did not take questions from reporters.

Sanders, Clinton clash over auto bailout vote The ASSOCIATED PRESS

KALAMAZOO, Mich. – Trying to make a stand in Michigan, Sen. Bernie Sanders said Monday that Hillary Clinton was being disingenuous when she asserted that he opposed the auto bailout that rescued carmakers General Motors and Chrysler from oblivion during the economic crisis.

Sanders sought to defend his record ahead of Tuesday’s crucial Michigan primary and blunt the former secretary of state’s momentum in the Democratic presidential contest. The bailout of the U.S. auto industry by Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama remains popular in Michigan, the home of the U.S. auto industry, and has been credited with preserving the Midwest’s manufacturing base.

“Secretary Clinton went out of her way to mischaracterize my history as it relates to the 2008 auto industry bailout,” the Vermont senator said during a rally in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

“Let me be as clear as I can: There was one vote in the United States Senate on whether or not to support the auto bailout and protect jobs in Michigan and around this country. I voted for the auto bailout.”

Sanders was referring to a December 2008 vote in which Michigan’s Democratic senators, Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow, pleaded with fellow lawmakers to provide a $14 billion lifeline to GM and Chrysler, which were teetering on the brink of bankruptcy at the time.

Sanders and Clinton both voted in favor of the bill but it failed to clear the Senate, prompt-

ing Bush to announce about a week later that the federal government would step in with $17.4 billion in federal aid to help the carmakers survive and restructure. The bailout provided $13.4 billion at the end of the Bush administration with the last $4 billion contingent on the release of the second installment of the Wall Street bailout funds.

In Sunday night’s debate, Clinton declared that Sanders “was against the auto bailout. In January 2009, President-elect Obama asked everybody in the Congress to vote for the bailout. The money was there, and had to be released in order to save the American auto industry.”

She added: “I voted to save the auto industry. He voted against the money that ended up saving the auto industry. I think that is a pretty big difference.” Clinton’s campaign began airing a radio ad Monday in Michigan with a similar message.

Clinton was referring to a Jan. 15, 2009, vote in which the Senate considered a motion to block the release of the second half of the $700 billion financial rescue package. Both Bush and Obama, then the president-elect, had urged Congress to release the second $350 billion of the Troubled Asset Relief Program funds.

The effort to block the funds was led by Louisiana Sen. David Vitter, a Republican, and the measure was defeated by 45 Democrats, including Clinton, and a handful of Republicans.

Sanders, who opposed the Wall Street bailout, voted with Vitter’s side to block the money.

GOP establishment fears loss of standing

By JULIE PACE

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Republican leaders in Washington have spent years casting tea party allies and hardliners in Congress as merely a restive minority, a fringe element to be tolerated.

Now, with Donald Trump and Ted Cruz rising to the top of the 2016 GOP presidential primary, those party leaders are confronting the possibility that they may be the outliers.

One by one, Washington’s favored candidates have dropped out of the White House race. Those who are left – Marco Rubio and John Kasich – face long odds and sudden-death primaries in their home states next week. In private conversations and public newspaper editorials, talk of a historic splintering of the GOP centers on the prospect of the establishment, not the insurgents, dissolving or breaking away.

“Something important is ending. It is hard to believe what replaces it will be better,” Peggy Noonan, a speechwriter for Ronald Reagan, wrote in a Wall Street Journal column.

Republicans have long grappled with a divide between party leaders and grass-roots supporters.

Recent presidential elections papered over the fissures rather than resolved them, with Republicans sending centrist candidates John McCain and Mitt Romney into the general election even as the GOP electorate became more conservative.

Leaders expected the 2016 election to follow the same pattern. Money flowed toward former Donald Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Trump the son and brother of presidents, who seemed to embody the spirit of inclusiveness GOP leaders called for after Romney’s staggering lack of success with minority voters in 2012.

John Kasich Even when Trump shook up the race last summer, more traditional Republicans confidently predicted his appeal would be short-lived.

But Trump has maintained his grip on the GOP field, with Cruz emerging as his strongest competitor. As establishment favorites like Bush have dropped out, Trump and Cruz’s share of the vote has increased. In a diverse array of states, from Maine to Georgia

to Nevada, they’ve carried more than 60 percent.

“It’s a weird election year,” said Trent Lott, the former Mississippi senator who is backing Kasich. “Depending on how this election turns out, the party may be different.”

To some Republicans, that would be welcome.

“For the party to fix itTed Cruz self, you need to destroy the establishment lane,” said Michael Needham, head of Heritage Action, a conservative advocacy group that has pushed for ideological purity among GOP elected officials. “The party that we’ll see 10 years from now is going to share a lot of Trump’s willingness to speak truth to power, to not be cowed by political correctness.”

Trump’s rise in particular has sparked discussions among Washington Republicans about blocking the real estate mogul in a contested convention or perhaps rallying around a third-party candidate who could keep him from the White House.

After flirting with an independent run, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced Monday that he

would not take that step. He concluded that doing so could make it easier for Trump or Cruz to win the presidency.

“That is not a risk I can take in good conscience,” Bloomberg said in an online post.

Rubio, of Florida, and Kasich, of Ohio, have one last chance to emerge as viable alternatives. Their home states vote March 15 and offer winner-take-all caches of delegates that could revive sagging candidacies.

Rubio does not plan to leave Florida until after next week’s primary. Campaign officials concede it will be virtually impossible to stay in the race without a home-state win, but have expressed confidence voters will move toward him as primary day draws closers.

But with Florida’s easy access to absentee and early voting, more than 571,000 Republicans have already cast their ballots. With about 2 million people projected to vote, that’s at least one in four Florida GOP voters who can’t be persuaded to change their minds.

Still, campaigns and outside groups are spending heavily on the air in Florida.

Campaign donors having second thoughts about Rubio

By THOMAS BEAUMONT and BILL BARROW The Associated Press

TAMPA, Florida – Just when Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio needs them the most, big-dollar contributors from the party’s wealthy mainstream are having second thoughts about his future in the 2016 race.

Fresh misgivings about Rubio’s path forward are the latest in a series of obstacles that threatens the Florida senator’s future in this roller-coaster Republican campaign, with a must-win March 15 primary looming in his home state.

“Super Tuesday came and Rubio didn’t do as well as some of us hoped.

So people are saying, ‘Let’s see how this thing shakes out,’ ” said Craig Duchossois, who contributed $500,000 last year to a group that backed former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.

“I’m holding back,” the Chicago-based investor said of his own plans.

But the senator remains bullish on his chances. “We’re going to win Florida,” he said Monday afternoon in Tampa, where he’s beginning a weeklong focus on the winner-take-all prize of 99 delegates.

“This is going to be a very long pro-

Marco Rubio, R-Fla., poses for a photograph Sunday at a campaign rally in Boise, Idaho. cess,” he told reporters, again suggesting that the nomination won’t be settled until almost 2,500 GOP delegates convene this summer in Cleveland for the party’s convention.

Still, Rubio’s aides concede he likely cannot remain in the race without winning in Florida, where public polls

show him second to Trump. Rubio said he has momentum and that “every day that goes by ... we’re going to gain votes.”

The must-win scenario is a result of Rubio’s struggle to find a reliable base in the splintering Republican electorate.

He’s largely failed to reconnect with the tea party voters who made him a favorite during their national breakthrough six years ago, instead watching them flock to presidential rivals Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.

Rubio also has not fully harnessed the financial muscle of the GOP oldguard eager to derail Trump, despite the shift in focus by many to Rubio after Bush quit the race last month.

The result is a Catch-22: He needs money to compete in Florida, while donors wait out those results for signs of his long-term viability.

“We’ll see what happens on next Tuesday in Florida,” said Ron Gidwitz, another Chicago GOP donor who turned from Bush to Rubio. “We’ll see how real he is at that point.”

Rubio had about $5 million in available cash at the beginning of last month, less than half of what Cruz had on hand.

Trump has said he can afford to finance his own campaign, although he has received contributions.

Rubio noted Monday how “expensive” it is to campaign in Florida, which he said is “like running in four or five different states” given the many large TV markets. Already Monday, Trump had launched a 60-second ad casting Rubio’s as dishonest.

A health worker cleans his hands with chlorinated water before entering an Ebola screening tent Aug. 11, 2014, at the government hospital in Kenema, Sierra Leone. workers in Kenema bereft of protective equipment or even body bags and using expired chlorine, a crucial disinfectant.

WHO said Metabiota was well-placed to help when Ebola broke out in West Africa because of its expertise with Lassa, a related disease. The agency declined to give any detail about how it dealt with the complaints from senior staff about the firm or the status of their current relationship.

In Sierra Leone, Sylvia Blyden, who served as special executive assistant to the country’s president in the early days of the outbreak, said Metabiota’s response was a disaster.

“They messed up the entire region,” she said. She called Metabiota’s attempt to claim credit for its Ebola work “an insult for the memories of thousands of Africans who have died.”

‘The Viral Storm’

Wolfe, a swashbuckling scientist sometimes described as the Indiana Jones of virology, has focused his company’s work on disease hotspots such as West Africa in a bid to sniff out the next big threat. In his book, “The Viral Storm,” Wolfe writes that his work is aimed at hunting down “the first moments at the birth of a new pandemic” to prevent its global spread.

With a doctorate in immunology and infectious diseases from Harvard, Wolfe, 45, has found some serious backers. Metabiota and its nonprofit sister company Global Viral have received

millions in funding from USAID, Google and the Skoll Foundation, among others. The Department of Defense alone has granted more than $18 million worth of contracts to the firm, federal records show.

In the early months of the outbreak, with WHO and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention thin on the ground, Metabiota said it stepped in to help at the request of the Sierra Leonean government.

An account posted to its website says Metabiota provided “critical support” in the earliest days of the outbreak, organizing training, jointly running Sierra Leone’s Ebola laboratory, assisting with outbreak logistics and producing daily reports for the government.

Messages saved to ProMed, a mailing list for outbreak watchers, are upbeat, describing Metabiota’s tests and how it was teaching Sierra Leoneans how to set up Ebola isolation wards. On May 12, senior Metabiota scientist Dr. JeanPaul Gonzalez said preparedness work had “ultimately protected, or at least uniquely prepared, Sierra Leone.”

But there were already reports of suspected infections in the country and, within weeks, the virus tore through Sierra Leone, overwhelming the hospital in Kenema where Metabiota shared the 700-square-foot lab with Tulane.

To some at Tulane, which had a long-established research project at the lab, Metabiota’s missteps were predictable. The two groups worked side-by-

side in an uneasy relationship that observers said sometimes tipped into open conflict.

Tulane microbiology professor Bob Garry questioned whether Gonzalez was the right person to teach Sierra Leoneans how to protect themselves from Ebola. In 1994, the French researcher was at the center of a safety scare at Yale University after he accidentally infected himself with the rare Sabia virus and didn’t notify officials there for more than a week. The university put more than 100 people under surveillance and ordered Gonzalez to take a remedial safety course. Garry said that should have raised a red flag.

“Do you really want the person who infected himself with hemorrhagic fever going around explaining to people how to be safe?” he asked.

Gonzalez referred questions to a Metabiota press representative, who said in an email that the incident happened more than 20 years ago and that Gonzalez has extensive lab safety experience.

But Garry also faced questions; the WHO emails obtained by AP complaining about the Kenema lab are as critical of Tulane as they are of Metabiota.

Garry acknowledged mistakes but said they were understandable given the chaotic circumstances.

“We didn’t have the personnel and the infrastructure that was needed to handle the onslaught of cases that were coming,” he said. “We were doing the best we had with what we had there.”

• Tuesday, March 8, 2016

WASHINGTON – An American company that bills itself as a pioneer in tracking emerging epidemics made a series of costly mistakes during the 2014 Ebola outbreak that swept across West Africa – with employees feuding with fellow responders, contributing to misdiagnosed Ebola cases and repeatedly misreading the trajectory of the virus, an Associated Press investigation has found.

San Francisco-based Metabiota Inc. was tapped by the Sierra Leonean government and the World Health Organization to help monitor the spread of the virus and support the response after Ebola was discovered circulating in neighboring Guinea in March 2014. But emails obtained by AP and interviews with aid workers on the ground show that some of the company’s actions made an already chaotic situation worse.

WHO outbreak expert Dr. Eric Bertherat wrote to colleagues in a July 17, 2014, email about misdiagnoses and “total confusion” at the Sierra Leone government lab Metabiota shared with Tulane University in the city of Kenema. He said there was “no tracking of the samples” and “absolutely no control on what is being done.”

“This is a situation that WHO can no longer endorse,” he wrote.

Metabiota chief executive officer and founder Nathan Wolfe said there was no evidence his company was responsible for the lab blunders, that the reported squabbles were overblown and that any predictions made by his employees didn’t reflect the company’s position.

He said Metabiota doesn’t specialize in outbreak response and that his employees stepped in to help and performed admirably amid the carnage of the world’s biggest-ever Ebola outbreak.

“Metabiota’s team worked tirelessly, skillfully and at substantial potential danger to themselves to assist when most of the world was still ignoring the problem,” he said in an email. “We are proud of our team efforts which went above and beyond the call of duty.”

Wolfe said some of the problems flagged were misunderstandings – and that others were planted by commercial rivals.

The complaints about Metabiota mirror the wider mismanagement that hamstrung the world’s response to Ebola, a disease that has killed upward of 11,000 people.

Previous AP reporting has shown that WHO resisted sounding the alarm over Ebola for two months on political, religious and economic grounds and failed to put together a decisive response even after the alert was issued.

The turmoil that followed left health

Let states rule on food labels Twenty years of research have found no reason to warrant mandatory labels for foods that contain genetically modified organisms.

But the effort in Congress to ban state laws mandating labels has little to do with the science behind GMOs, and everything to do with who gets to decide what consumers know about the food on the shelves of their nearby grocery store.

As it stands now, states are allowed to unilaterally mandate that certain information appears on food labels, as long as that information does not interfere with the ingredient and nutritional data required by federal law.

Removing that law only in relation to genetically modified food, as the proposal now before Congress would do, would be a handout to bioengineering companies and large food producers, and an affront to voters and elected representatives in the states that have passed or are considering GMO-labeling laws.

Congress is considering the inaccurately named Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act of 2015. The House already has approved its version, and a committee last week voted, 14-6, to send the Senate version to the floor.

Proponents of the bill say food labels should be reserved for health and safety information, and that a “state-by-state patchwork of laws” governing GMO labels will confuse consumers and force food companies to create state-specific labels that drive up the cost of food.

However, the proof offered for rising prices is extremely thin, particularly from an industry that changes labels often to reflect the latest consumer trends, and to do business in the many countries that already require labels.

As for consumer confusion, GMO labels are no more troublesome than packaging that advertises “Gluten-Free” or “High Protein” products.

For the latter to be helpful, consumers have to know gluten is only a problem for those who are allergic, only so much protein is necessary for your body to function correctly, and neither feature is synonymous with “nutritious” or “healthy.”

While scientific evidence shows GMOs have no effect on a food’s health or nutritional profile, consumers are right to have concerns over the practices of the large-scale agricultural companies that produce them.

If a state wants to help consumers more easily identify those products as a way to differentiate them from the output of small, local, responsible food producers, then it should have that right. There is no reason for the federal government to interfere.

The Democrats’ adult campaign The Democratic presidential candidates offer a powerful rebuke of the vulgar, demeaning Republican presidential campaign – not so much in what Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders say about the Republicans, but simply in the way they behave.

You wouldn’t mind your children watching their debates, which have been focused largely on policy. Both the former secretary of state and the Vermont senator offer serious, testable proposals.

Both show respect for each other, for the voters and for the office they seek.

Take, for example, the fundamental question of how a government should tax and spend. Clinton in particular has offered a raft of serious, progressive proposals that are grounded in reality, even though the electorate sometimes has seemed more interested in ideological pizzazz. The independent Tax Policy Center, which has been examining each candidate’s fiscal plans, reported last week that Clinton’s would raise about $1.1 trillion in new revenue over a decade, almost entirely from very high earners. She would spend a significant portion of this

money on a tax cut for the middle class, making college debt-free and other programs. Though it still is unclear exactly how much of Clinton’s new revenue would be put to righting the country’s long-term budget outlook, hers is the most fiscally responsible plan on the table.

Sanders also claims to pay for all the new spending he proposes. But he would increase taxes – mostly on the wealthy, but on everyone to some extent – by a whopping $15.3 trillion over 10 years. The revenue would go to making college and health care free, among other goals. But the tax hikes would be so large and the spending requirements of his new programs so uncertain the analysts warn the plan carries economic risks they cannot measure.

The Republicans lately have not been much interested in discussing such matters. But they all have made proposals – and none of them passes the laugh test, as the Tax Policy Center analyses show.

Unsurprisingly, Donald Trump’s plan would do the most damage, reducing federal revenue

by $9.5 trillion over 10 years. Ted Cruz takes the silver medal for irresponsibility, reducing revenue by $8.6 trillion, and Marco Rubio claims the bronze with a mere $6.8 trillion reduction. Each plan would require “unprecedented spending cuts” to work – on the order of slashing the entire defense budget or greater.

True, the estimates do not assume miraculous levels of economic growth, which Republicans typically rely on. But they also do not count the additional interest the country would have to pay if GOP tax cuts ended up being deficit financed. Congress has a much easier time cutting taxes than it does reducing spending, and there is little reason to believe a President Trump or a President Cruz magically could upend that pattern.

This, then, is the state of the presidential race: a thoroughly unbecoming campaign on the GOP side and a quieter but nevertheless stark contrast of visions on the Democratic side. It is clear who knows what running for president should look like – and who does not.

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.

Franks makes reform possible

To the Editor: I commend state Rep. Jack Franks for having the courage to stand with Gov. Bruce Rauner to introduce legislation that will help consolidate local governments.

Franks is the leader in Illinois on consolidation, previously leading a commission whose findings were universally applauded. Rauner appointed Franks to Lt. Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti’s task force, where they built on the previous findings of Franks’ commission.

These leaders know eliminating redundant governments is key to reducing our crushing property tax burden. Unfortunately, our local Republican County Board consistently has opposed efforts to reduce property taxes and reduce the size of government. It does not want accountability or transparency.

That’s why Franks’ leadership is so important. He will continue to press for real reforms to help protect the taxpayers. Franks is the only public official with the guts to take on the good old boys.

Although McHenry County once again has hired lobbyists with our tax dollars to

Tsilimigras fair, honest

To the Editor: I would like to endorse Demetri Tsilimigras for circuit judge of McHenry County.

He is experienced, diligent and ethical.

The citizens of McHenry County would be well-served to have Demetri in office. I would be comfortable with any decisions he would make on the bench because of his fairness, integrity and honesty. I wish we could say that about all of the judges running for office.

Seek help for gambling problem

To the Editor: March is National Gambling Awareness Month, and I would like to encourage anyone who gambles to keep track of their wins and losses. If the losses add up to gambling debt, it’s time to seek professional help.

Common signs of a problem gambler often include lying to your partner about where you’ve been and how you’ve spent your money; lost sleep due to gambling stress and anxiety; reducing time one spends with family and work to gamble; feeling guilty about gambling; trying to cut back in gambling without success.

Gambling disorders are treatable. Renz Addiction Counseling Center is offering free gambling assessments throughout 2016 and free treatment during March at our offices at 2 American Way, Elgin. For information on Renz Center’s problem gambling services, visit www.renzcenter. org or call 847-742-3545.

Don’t cut senior programs

To the Editor: I know Gov. Bruce Rauner is trying to balance the budget. But there are a lot of elderly people who depend on the senior programs to help with their living expenses. Also, handicapped people depend on Pioneer Center for Human Services to

cover their living expenses.

Where many of us seniors feel you should cut expenses is the Planned Parenthood organization, which is killing off the next generation of taxpaying citizens.

The parents should accept their responsibility of caring for their children.

Cowlin for judge

To the Editor: There is no substitute for experience.

That is why I’m going to vote for Judge James Cowlin for circuit judge in McHenry County. Cowlin is a lifelong resident of McHenry County. He has been a member of McHenry County’s legal community for more than 30 years. He has gained experience through 25 years as an attorney in private practice and eight years as an associate judge. In September 2015, he was appointed by the Illinois Supreme Court to the position of circuit judge. Cowlin has the respect and recommendation of those who have worked alongside him as well as those who have appeared before him.

I’ll be casting my vote for Cowlin, and I urge you to vote for him, too.

Charles Ruth Huntley

Tsilimigras for judge

To the Editor: Vote for Demetri Tsilimigras on March 15. I have not personally met Demetri myself, but my teenage son has. Like many mothers, I was concerned with my son entering his teenage years and all the potential bad influences that come along with it. Demetri took time out of his busy day and agreed to meet with my son in the prosecutor’s office to tell him about how many of the people who end up in serious trouble started out with a stupid mistake. Additionally, my son benefited by hearing about what it was like to be a prosecutor, since he is interested in becoming an attorney when he grows up.

I appreciate Demetri’s time to create a lasting positive memory for my child.

Demetri’s true commitment to public service was demonstrated by this. We need Demetri serving as judge. He will be fair and compassionate with all in his courtroom.

Roskam afraid to debate

To the Editor: Why is Congressman Peter Roskam afraid to engage with his opponent and his constituents? His challenger, Dr. Jay Kinzler, formally has invited him to a debate, where the candidates publicly would discuss the serious issues facing our country. Mr. Roskam is a trained lawyer, while Dr. Kinzler is a surgeon and serves in our Army Reserve treating active duty military patients. Dr. Kinzler is brave enough to continue the great political debate tradition of Illinois that this state witnessed in the Lincoln-Douglas debates of 1858. Let’s hear the differences between these two men so we are informed voters. How about it, Mr. Roskam?

Regna for state’s attorney

To the Editor: I would like to encourage you to vote for Dan Regna for the office of state’s attorney for McHenry County. Having had the opportunity to work with Dan on several criminal investigations while he was a prosecutor, I can attest to his commitment to fairness and high ethical standards.

Dan will serve the citizens of McHenry County well by working with law enforcement to prosecute those who would violate the law. He is well-respected by law enforcement professionals throughout the area. A vote for Regna is a vote for fair and ethical criminal justice in McHenry County.

OPINIONS | Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

To the Editor: Alexander the Great once said, “I am not afraid of an army of lions led by a sheep; I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion.” Donald Trump is that lion.

Never have I seen political candidates attack the front-runner of the political party. This fragments a party, and it also reveals the corruption and manipulating of the establishment. Americans are sick of negative campaigning.

It was best said, “If you want to spread a lie, have the media do it for you.”

Rubio, Cruz and the media have been running around asserting flat-out lies about Trump. This simply reveals their PAC money and establishment allegiance, as well as their weakness and insecurity.

Furthermore, they don’t realize they are shooting themselves in the foot.

Additionally, Rubio and Cruz are insiders.

You will not see any changes with the illegal immigrant issue, getting American companies back on American soil or balancing the trade or national debt issues.

If Cruz and Rubio all of a sudden are on fire with these issues, where have they been all these years? I’ll tell you where they’ve been – doing nothing. Get the career politicians out.

If you want to stop America’s impending collapse, have the guts to choose the lion and clean house.

defeat Franks’ efforts to save taxpayers money, ultimately Franks will prevail. Because he has helped to build a coalition in Springfield that is ready to empower local voters to take back their government, the chances of real reform greatly have increased. Those who seek to protect their fiefdoms and patronage cronies are now on notice that their time is quickly coming to an end.

Stock market posts meager gains, led by energy companies

By BERNARD CONDON The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Stocks wavered throughout the day but managed to eke out modest gains Monday as oil prices rose.

Investors bought drillers, refiners and other energy companies as the threeweek rise in crude continued. Six of 10 industry sectors in the Standard & Poor’s 500 rose, helping the index extend its winning streak to a fifth day.

The ride up was bumpy, however, and the gains were slight. The S&P 500 gained just 0.09 percent. That was its smallest increase in seven weeks.

“Today’s volatility is mostly about a little profit-taking and taking a pause after such a strong advance in recent days,” said Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist at Wells Capital.

The Dow Jones industrial average increased 67.18 points, or 0.4 percent, to 17,073.95. The S&P 500 edged up 1.77 points to 2,001.76. The Nasdaq composite, which is heavily weighted with technology stocks, gave up 8.77 points, or 0.2 percent, to 4,708.25.

Shares of consumer products and technology companies fell. Chipmaker Micron Technology fell 30 cents, or 2.5 percent, to $11.58.

With no big U.S. economic or earnings

announcements, news from abroad appeared to drive much of the trading.

The price of iron ore jumped 17 percent on news over the weekend that China plans to run up its deficit to stimulate its economy. China is the world’s largest buyer of this raw material for steel, and mining companies soared on the news.

Cliffs Natural Resources rose 54 cents to $3.43, a gain of 19 percent.

China also lowered its official growth target this year to 6.5 to 7 percent. The slowdown has been rattling markets, although fears that the trouble could spill over into the U.S. economy have eased in recent weeks as encouraging U.S. data suggest growth is solid. On Friday, the government reported that employers added 242,000 jobs to their payrolls last month, more than had been expected.

“The market is correctly pricing in a lower chance of global recession or U.S. recession,” said Brian Nick, head of tactical asset allocation at UBS Wealth Management Americas.

Investors are anxious over a policy meeting of the European Central Bank on Thursday as inflation across the 19-country eurozone has fallen back below zero.

They expect further stimulus from the central bank, possibly including a cut in deposit rates further into negative territory. The Bank for International Set-

tlements, which helps coordinate monetary policy around the world, warned on Monday of a “gathering storm” as central banks run out of room to stimulate their economies.

European markets mostly were lower, with France’s CAC-40 and Britain’s FTSE 100 each losing 0.3 percent. Germany’s DAX dropped 0.5 percent.

Benchmark U.S. crude added $1.98, or 5.5 percent, to close at $37.90 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

The 10 biggest gainers in the S&P 500 were drillers and other energy-related companies. Murphy Oil rose $2.99, or nearly 13 percent, to $26.69.

In Asia, Tokyo’s Nikkei retreated 0.6 percent and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng shed 0.1 percent. Seoul’s Kospi advanced 0.1 percent.

In other energy trading, Brent crude, which is used to price international oils, rose $2.12, or 5.5 percent, to $40.84 a barrel. Wholesale gasoline rose 6.1 cents to $1.393 a gallon, heating oil rose 6.1 cents to $1.223 a gallon and natural gas rose 2.4 cents to $1.69 per 1,000 cubic feet.

U.S. government bond prices fell. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 1.90 percent from 1.87 percent on Friday. The euro rose to $1.1013 from $1.0999 and the dollar fell to 113.27 yen from 114.02 yen.

Aesthetics moves locations

Owner: New spot in city is more convenient for customers

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO

sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com

McHENRY – Much like the past eight years in business, the owner of Aesthetics, a small retail boutique in McHenry, again listened to her customers when deciding whether to move her store within the city.

The “ladies,” as owner Connie Perez likes to call her customers, wanted easier access to Aesthetics and longer hours on the weekends. Perez said she often listens to her customers, who have a formal say on what brand clothes and accessories will be available for sale at Aesthetics.

So, she believes her new store at 404 S. Route 31, next to the popular Brunch Cafe in McHenry, will bring the convenience her customers want, located near a main entryway into the city.

“I’m now part of their regular day. Before, they had to make the conscientious effort to visit me,” Perez said. “I’m ac-

commodating them by having an easier, accessible location for them.”

She opens the sightly larger, 1,800-square-foot store on Tuesday, located less than a mile south from her former storefront at the Fountain Shoppes center along Route 31 in McHenry. As part of the opening, Perez will unveil her new springtime merchandise.

By locating farther south on Route 31, Aesthetics will be able to draw in additional traffic, especially with its close location next to the adjacent Brunch Cafe, Perez said. Her customers can visit

to shop and then walk a few feet to have breakfast or lunch – even on Sundays.

For the first time, Aesthetics will open on Sundays and operate each day of the week to take advantage of its proximity to Brunch Cafe.

The location, which Perez custom designed, also addresses another need her customers have expressed. A more spacious, expanded fitting section should make it a more comfortable environment for customers, she said.

“This is a better layout for the kind of service store that we are,” Perez said.

Perez initially opened Aesthetics in 2008 in Crystal Lake before moving the business to the Fountain Shoppes center in 2013.

She plans to mark her third move for the business by serving food and drinks during a grand opening event from 5:30 to 9 p.m. Tuesday at her new location.

Aesthetics also will do promotional giveaways all week for customers.

JetBlue program to train novice pilots

By DAVID KOENIG

The Associated Press DALLAS – JetBlue Airways is taking applications for 24 slots in a new program to train novice pilots to fly a passenger jet.

The airline said Monday that the program – the first of its kind at a large U.S. airline – will cost about $125,000 and take four years to complete. Graduates could wind up flying 100-seat passenger jets.

Warren Christie, JetBlue’s senior vice president of safety and training, said the program won’t replace the airline’s traditional pipelines for pilots, many of whom come from smaller airlines.

JetBlue hired more than 300 pilots last year, and a group of 30 new hires just started training last week, he said. Applicants will be judged with tests measuring handeye coordination, multitasking, critical thinking and other skills. Those who survive the first cut will be interviewed.

There also will be a “personality assessment” but not psychological screening, Christie said. The debate over psychological screening has increased since a Germanwings pilot intentionally crashed a plane last year in France, killing 150 people. JetBlue expects the first group of six prospects to begin training in late summer at the airline’s training center in Florida.

JetBlue hired CAE, a maker of flight simulators, to provide the training. CAE has run similar programs for EasyJet and

Ryanair in Europe and several airlines in Asia. Christie believes the program will open the profession to more people. The trainees will meet all federal requirements before carrying passengers, he said.

“They will absolutely be as qualified as any other pilot that is operating a JetBlue aircraft,” he said.

Taking a page from programs in Europe, the students will start training with other crew members in a cockpit or simulator much earlier than usual, according to JetBlue and CAE. Currently, some new U.S. pilots learn by dusting crops or toting

advertising banners – experience that may bear little resemblance to working in an airliner cockpit. The applicants will pay for their own training, and the cost is not much different from the amount that many aspiring pilots now spend to accumulate the 1,500 flight hours necessary for an airline pilot’s license.

Christie said the students will be able to defray some of their costs by earning a salary as a CAE instructor for part of their training period. CAE described the salary as “competitive” without providing specifics.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt leaves ‘Sandman’ over differences

AP file photo

Author Harper Lee smiles during a ceremony honoring the four new members of the Alabama Academy of Honor on Aug. 20, 2007, at the Capitol in Montgomery, Ala.

Ala. judge seals Harper Lee’s will MONROEVILLE, Ala. – Famously private in life, “To Kill a Mockingbird” author Harper Lee is keeping her secrets even in death.

Monroe County Probate Judge Greg Norris signed an order last week to seal Lee’s will from public view, according to court records available Monday.

Lawyers for Lee’s personal representative and attorney, Tonja Carter, had asked for the will to remain private and Lee’s heirs and relatives agreed to the request, according to the court filing.

“As the Court is no doubt aware, Ms. Lee highly valued her privacy,” the lawyers wrote. “She did not wish for her private financial affairs to be matters of public discussion. Ms. Lee left a considerable legacy for the public in her published works; it is not the public’s business what private legacy she left for the beneficiaries of her will.”

Carter represented Lee for several years and once practiced law with the writer’s sister, Alice Lee. In a two-page order issued a week ago Monday, Norris wrote that he agreed there was a threat of public intrusion and harassment for Lee’s heirs. They and Lee’s next of kin have a right to inspect the contents of the will and accompanying file, but no one else does, he wrote. The order indicated that Norris held a hearing on the motion.

The judge ordered that a label be put on the file stating, “UNDER SEAL: DO NOT ALLOW PUBLIC INSPECTION.” Norris on Monday said the town was happy to protect the privacy of its most famous citizen.

He said the publication of Lee’s second book, “Go Set a Watchman” last year sparked a barrage of accusations and claims, many of them aimed at Carter.

NEW YORK – Joseph Gordon-Levitt has dropped out of a movie adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s “Sandman,” saying he and the studio don’t see “eye to eye” on the project.

In a message posted Saturday on Facebook, Gordon-Levitt said he was pulling out after several years of development because New Line Cinema has a different idea about “what makes ‘Sandman’ special.” Warner Bros. recently shifted the film to its subsidiary New Line. “Conjuring 2” screenwriter Eric Heisserer also was brought in.

Gordon-Levitt had been set to direct and star in the DC Comics title.

Gaiman, an executive producer of the film, tweeted that his respect for the actor-director is “undiminished.” The author added that he has little control over the film’s production.

New Line didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.

Lawyer featured in ‘Making a Murderer’ writing a book NEW YORK – An attorney for Steven Avery who was featured in the hit Netflix series “Making a Murderer” has more to say about the trial.

HarperCollins told The Associated Press on Monday that Jerome Buting has a deal with HarperCollins Publishers for a book being released next year. The book will be released through the Harper imprint.

“Making a Murderer” chronicles the hardship of Avery, a member of a salvage-yard family in Wisconsin’s rural Manitowoc County who served 18 years in prison for a 1985 rape he didn’t commit. The series tells of Avery’s widely disputed conviction in the 2005 death of a photographer.

The documentary suggests the possibility that deputies planted evidence.

In the book, Buting will draw on his 35year career and assail the “dysfunction” of the criminal justice system.

Harry Potter author’s chair heading to auction

NEW YORK – It could be said that it’s where the magic and witchcraft began.

The humble chair J.K. Rowling sat on while writing the first two books of the Harry Potter series is going on the auction block in New York City on April 6 with an opening bid of $45,000.

It’s an ordinary-looking chair but magical in that Rowling placed “this unassuming 1930s-era oak chair with a replacement burlap seat decorated with a red thistle ... in front of her typewriter and went about writing two of the most important books of the modern era,” said James Gannon, director of rare books at Heritage Auctions.

It was one of four mismatched chairs given to the then starving artist for her flat in Edinburgh, Scotland, and which she used while writing “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” and “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.”

Police: Wife of ex-Eagles member dies in shooting LOS ANGELES – Los Angeles authorities said the wife of former Eagles band

member Randy Meisner was killed when a rifle she was handling accidentally discharged and shot her in the head.

A police news release said officers found 63-year-old Lana Rae Meisner dead on Sunday from a single gunshot wound at the couple’s home in the San Fernando Valley.

Investigators said Lana Rae Meisner lifted the rifle from a storage case when another item inside shifted and hit the trigger, causing the gun to fire.

Police said Randy Meisner was cooperative throughout the investigation.

Officials said police had responded to the home earlier Sunday and took a domestic violence incident report.

Randy Meisner co-founded the Eagles and co-wrote and sang the hit “Take It To the Limit.” He played bass and guitar and left the band in 1977.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reunite 1980s cast

BURBANK, Calif. – Worlds collide as the voice cast of the 1980s Turtles – Cam Clarke, Rob Paulsen, Barry Gordon and Townsend Coleman – join forces as Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo, respectively, in “Trans-Dimensional

Turtles,” a new episode debuting March 27 on Nickelodeon.

In this new half-hour episode, the Turtles are transported to another dimension where they meet their ’80s alternate-reality counterparts. Actor Pat Fraley also reunites with the ’80s cast for the first time since the original series premiered to reprise his role as Krang.

In “Trans-Dimensional Turtles,” all eight Turtles must battle to eliminate both the ’80s Krang and Kraang Sub-Prime. After meeting their ’80s counterparts in a 2D-animation world, the entire clan moves back into a CG-animation dimension, giving their new retro friends a taste of their realm.

Additionally, in another dimensional twist, the episode will offer a glimpse of the Turtles in a comic book world resembling Kevin Eastman’s Mirage Studios comic book series.

Season four of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles follows the Turtles as they embark on their most epic adventure yet – outer space. Allied with a cyborg known as the Fugitoid (voiced by David Tennant), the Turtles hurdle through space, meet strange and bizarre alien creatures, and combat galactic monsters all in a race against time to save planet Earth.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – Former pro wrestler Hulk Hogan said Monday he was “completely humiliated” by the publication of a video showing him having sex with his then-best friend’s wife.

Testifying in his privacy lawsuit against the Gawker website, Hogan said he didn’t authorize the tape to be made or authorize Gawker to publish it. Hogan said when he realized that his best friend, radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge Clem, was involved in making the tape, he began shaking uncontrollably.

Earlier, Hogan testified that he initially thought it was a joke when Clem said his wife wanted to have sex with Hogan.

He testified that the Clems had an open marriage.

Hogan is suing Gawker for $100 million for publishing the sex video.

The trial finished for the day around 4:30 p.m., when Gawker’s attorneys were cross-examining Hogan. During cross-examination, an attorney for Gawker questioned Hogan about inconsistencies in testimony and media interviews. Hogan testified that he didn’t watch the video when he discovered its existence; during a

media interview he said he did. And Hogan said he didn’t know he was being videoed when he had sex with Heather Clem. But in media interviews in 2012, Hogan said he asked Bubba Clem if he was being filmed.

Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, chalked up the inconsistencies to being shell-shocked by the tape and because he routinely put himself in his wrestling character.

“I was probably in the Hulk Hogan mode,” Hogan Terry Bollea said. “It gives you artistic ability, to be a character.”

Both sides in Hogan’s privacy lawsuit have portrayed him as a hero to little kids, a well-known entertainment figure and an American icon.

The civil trial, which started Monday in downtown St. Petersburg, pits the rowdy wrestling star against a maverick news-gossip website that’s known for pulling no punches with celebrities and other famous figures.

Pet tech off the leash

Popular gadgets and apps offer to keep animals safe, healthy and connected

By TERENCE CHEA

The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO – Technology isn’t just for humans anymore. It’s also for their furry friends.

In Silicon Valley and beyond, a growing number of startups are selling devices to keep pets safe, healthy, entertained and connected when their owners are away.

“Pet tech” entrepreneurs and investors see a big opportunity as pet ownership grows and owners show a willingness to spend serious money on their four-legged companions.

Nearly two-thirds of U.S. households, or 80 million homes, have pets, and Americans spent more than $60 billion on them last year, according to the American Pet Products Association.

“The number of pets in the world is growing extremely fast and that opens up the market,” said Peter Harrop, chairman of IDTechEx, a technology market research firm. “I’m sure five years from now there will be all sorts of things we can’t imagine.”

Already, there are devices that let your pets call you (PetChatz), play games and win treats when they’re home alone (CleverPet) and even speak with a human voice (Petspeak).

But as more pet-tech gadgets come to market, experts caution owners against relying on them too much.

“The technology can be useful as an adjunct, a way of enriching your relationship with your pet, but certainly not a substitute for time spent with your dog,” said Pamela Wyman, who runs the DogEvolve training school in Oakland.

The Petzi Treatcam lets Anne Ryan check on her dogs, Oscar and Reggie, at her Berkeley home when she’s working in San Francisco or traveling out of state.

The Internet-connected device lets her see her dogs, talk to them, take photos and even dispense treats – using an app on her phone.

“I turn it on, get to see them, get to talk to them and it changes my mood, and puts me back in a positive frame,” Ryan said. “I didn’t know that I needed it, but now I don’t think that I could live without it.”

The TreatCam was created by San Jose-based Petzila, which was founded by two veteran technology executives who wanted to get their pets online.

The startup also created a social

media app that lets owners share pet photos.

“All of the most current crazes and fads in technology were touching everything but the pet,” CEO David

Clark said.

Whistle, a San Francisco startup, sells a GPS-enabled Pet Tracker that alerts owners when their pets have left their “safe zone” and helps find them

if they get lost. The device also lets owners track how much exercise and sleep their animals are getting.

Ben Jacobs, Whistle’s CEO and co-founder, said the pet-tech market is expanding fast as pets move up the household hierarchy.

“From the yard to the home to the bed – the dog is no longer out as part of the farm, but they’re actually sleeping in bed with you as part of the family,” Jacobs said.

For owners who want their dogs and cats to be more active during the day, the Petcube Camera lets them see and speak to their pets and play with them with a laser pointer.

Petcube’s Ukranian founders started the company in Kiev, but moved its headquarters to San Francisco to reach a global market.

“If we can connect all the pets to the Internet and basically digitize this space, it will be nothing short of disruption,” said Yaroslav Azhnyuk, Petcube CEO and co-founder. “It will be very big.”

Sony’s streaming-television service is getting a $10-a-month price cut and adding Disney-owned channels such as ABC and ESPN. The changes came Wednesday, nearly a year after Sony’s PlayStation Vue launched as an alternative to traditional cable and satellite TV services.

The base package now costs $40 a month for more than 60 channels, including local stations for CBS, NBC, Fox and now ABC. Higher packages – at $45 and $55 – offer additional channels, including regional sports networks. Showtime also is available for an additional $11.

Sony had announced a deal with Walt Disney Co. in November, but Disney’s channels weren’t offered until now.

The Vue service requires a PlayStation or Amazon Fire TV device to sign up. After that, subscribers can watch on an iPhone, iPad or Google Chromecast streaming-TV device.

Sony’s main streaming-TV rival, Dish’s Sling TV, offers a cheaper, $20-a-month service with fewer channels – none of them over-the-air stations. But Sling recently added ABC stations in some cities as part of a $5 add-on package. Sling has had other Disney channels, including ESPN and Freeform, since its launch early last year.

Managing pain after angioplasty Dear Dr. K: I had angioplasty with a stent recently. I need to take aspirin and Plavix every day. I used to take ibuprofen for pain, but a neighbor said I shouldn’t take it if I’m on aspirin and Plavix. Is that right?

Dear Reader: Taking aspirin and Plavix after angioplasty and stent placement is standard care. Both aspirin and clopidogrel (Plavix) attach to blood cells called platelets to make them less sticky. You need these drugs to prevent the formation of a blood clot inside the stent. If a clot forms in the stent, it suddenly can cut off the blood supply and cause a major heart attack.

Ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).

Other NSAIDs include naproxen (Naprosyn, Aleve), celecoxib (Celebrex) and diclofenac (Voltaren). Like aspirin, the NSAID drugs both relieve pain and tend to make blood clot less easily.

As a result, the chance of having a serious internal bleed or bleed into the brain is higher when an NSAID is taken in addition to one or more anti-platelet drugs. NSAIDs other than aspirin also increase the chance of a heart attack and stroke in people with heart disease. That risk is unrelated to whether or not you take an anti-platelet agent.

So your neighbor is right that you need to discuss with your doctor whether to continue the ibuprofen. This is how I suggest you think about pain relief: • Start with a non-drug approach. Try a heating pad, ice or physical therapy, if appropriate. Even if these approaches do not completely relieve your pain, they might allow you to take a lower dose of a painkiller.

• Try acetaminophen. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) may be an effective alternative

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff to an NSAID. A safe amount is up to 3,250 milligrams a day. That’s no more than 10 regular-strength or six extra-strength tablets spread out over 24 hours.

• Consider other NSAID alternatives.

Non-acetylated salicylates are cousins to aspirin. They include salsalate (Disalcid) and choline magnesium trisalicylate (Trilisate). The bleeding risk is lower because they don’t affect platelets. And they cause less stomach irritation than other NSAIDs. • Use the safest NSAID. Some NSAIDs may be less risky than others. The prescription NSAID diclofenac appears to have the highest risk for a second heart attack. Some studies suggest naproxen has the lowest risk.

• Take your aspirin first. Not only does the aspirin you’re taking reduce your risk of a clot forming in the stent, it also reduces your risk of a clot forming elsewhere in the arteries of your heart and brain.

That reduces your risk of heart attack and stroke. Some studies indicate NSAIDs may interfere with aspirin’s protective effect.

So if you have heart disease and must use an NSAID, take the aspirin first. Wait an hour. Then take your required dose of the NSAID drug.

• Use only what you need. Take the lowest effective dose of an NSAID for the shortest period of time to relieve your pain.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

that would be to talk about these feelings with a licensed mental health professional. When you do, be prepared to touch on all of your relationships with men, including your father – who is usually the first “unattainable” man with whom a little girl falls in love. I am pretty sure you will find that conversation illuminating.

Once you understand your feelings, it might be easier for you to find a man who is truly available – if a relationship beyond a mad flirtation is what you really want, that is.

been carrying the lion’s share of the load. But unless you are finally ready to insist upon a new arrangement with this man – who has had it pretty good for the last 10 years – nothing will change.

It’s time to ask yourself whether what he does contribute – on every level – is enough to satisfy you. If it isn’t, be prepared to tell him you need to find an equal partner, and if he’s unwilling to be that person, he should move.

Dear Abby: Four years ago, I had major affection for a man. We talked every chance we could. We arranged times we could sit together and just talk. There was lots of flirting, eye contact and this overwhelming feeling of bliss.

The problem was he was married. Once I realized it, I was devastated because I understood what I wanted could never be. I feel so lost. I’m now considering going to counseling.

Now there’s someone else, and it’s the same problem – just a different setting.

I feel so guilty for crushing on unattainable men. Why can’t I like someone who is available?

I’ve liked guys my own age before, and ones who were single, but there’s something exciting about older unavailable men.

I don’t want to feel this way, but I know when I try to fight these feelings they just become stronger. I won’t act on them, but I wish I could change them. How can I? – Feeling Guilty

Dear Abby: DEAR ABBY How do you handle household Jeanne expenses with a Phillips partner?

My boyfriend and I have been in a relationship for 10 years. In all this time, he never once has split any of the expenses with me. I pay for everything. He does buy groceries, although not all of them. He also helps around the house and with my daughter.

If I bring up the issue of sharing expenses, it turns into a fight. He says he’s “sorry” he doesn’t make enough money. Then he says all that matters to me is money and threatens to move out.

I feel completely taken advantage of because he does have the money to make $300-plus monthly payments for his new boat. To me it’s all about priorities. I would like a new car, but I have other monthly bills to pay.

Is it just me, or is this unfair? – Up To Here

When an opponent opens the bidding, and you have at least five cards in two suits, it would be great to tell partner about both of them immediately. This is usually possible with either a Michaels Cue-Bid or the Unusual No-Trump.

The inventor of the Michaels Cue-Bid had unimaginative parents, because his name was Michael Michaels. But he had an imaginative idea. If an opponent opens one of a minor, an immediate overcall of two of the same minor shows at least 5-5 in the majors. If the opening bid is in a major, two of that major indicates at least five cards in both the other major and either minor.

In this deal, North shows both majors, with something like 10-plus points. You find the right fit first, then hope to judge the level correctly.

What should South bid over two clubs?

His decision is based on fit and hand strength. Here, the fit is decent, because nine trumps are much better than eight, and two aces are wonderful. South must jump to at least three spades (and four spades isn’t crazy).

To bid only two spades, which might be on a 2-1-5-5 hand, for example, is not nearly enough.

Here, North would control-bid four clubs (to show slam interest with a first-round club control), South would control-bid four diamonds, North would use Roman Key Card Blackwood (for choice), and sign off in six spades when he learns that the spade queen is missing.

South wins the diamond lead, cashes two top trumps (unlucky), then plays on hearts to discard his diamond loser.

BOYS BASKETBALL: CLASS 4A ROCK VALLEY COLLEGE SECTIONAL

‘Solid’ Jacobs plays on

Unspectacular Golden Eagles to face Auburn

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com Jacobs boys basketball coach Jimmy Roberts offered an assessment of his team that is less than scintillating.

“What we’ve been the entire year, it sounds kind of boring, but we’ve been a solid basketball team,” Roberts said.

“We’re a team that defends well, consistently, and when we play efficiently offensively, we win.”

There is nothing mundane, however, Jimmy about where the GoldRoberts en Eagles (23-6) have landed, which is in Tuesday’s 7 p.m.

Class 4A Rock Valley Sectional semifinal against Rockford Auburn (22-6).

It’s Jacobs’ second sectional trip in three seasons.

Jacobs shot well in its two games last week at the South Elgin Regional, defeating Larkin in the semifinal and DeKalb in overtime for the championship. Now the Eagles, who graduated five of their top six players from last season’s 22-6 team, face a program that is in its sixth sectional in eight seasons.

“We really felt we could be here,” Roberts said. “Everybody knew about [6-foot-9 junior Cameron Krutwig], but I don’t think anybody really knew exactly what we were going to be as a team. Nobody really knew any of our guys.”

With Krutwig averaging 17.7 points, 12.7 rebounds, 2.6 blocks and 2.5 assists a game, and demanding so much attention inside, the other Eagles frequently find open outside shots on offense.

“We’ve hit shots all year,” Krutwig said. “We’re really hitting our groove as far as shooting. Ryan (Phillips) has hit some big-time shots. Timmy (Randl) hit a 3 in the regional championship. Mason (Materna) has hit a couple in the last couple games. All these guys on our team can shoot, they’re not doing something extraordinary.”

Krutwig, who has 12 NCAA Division I offers, was the lone returning starter from last season and eclipsed 1,000 career points in Friday’s 54-48 victory over DeKalb. When Krutwig attracts defenders inside, Roberts has his other players spotting up behind the 3-point line.

“We can shoot it,” Roberts said.

Manning jokes, chokes up as he bids farewell

By ARNIE STAPLETON The Associated Press

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – Peyton Manning got through the weekend thanks to hundreds of texts and calls from men he played against or alongside over his unparalleled 18-year NFL career.

He had to crack a few jokes to help fight back the tears at his retirement news conference Monday, when the words didn’t always come as easy as the emotions.

His voice cracking, especially when he mentioned his hero, Johnny Unitas, Manning said goodbye to the game he loved in an auditorium packed with friends, family and laughter.

Manning, who turns 40 this month,

said the timing was simply right to call one last audible one month after winning his second Super Bowl trophy.

“I thought about it a lot, prayed about it a lot ... it was just the right time,” Manning said. “I don’t throw as good as I used to, don’t run as good as I used to, but I Peyton have always had good Manning timing.”

Manning came to Denver on March 20, 2012, for the chance to win another title in the twilight of his career. General manager John Elway had the blueprints.

Four years later, he hobbles away a

champion, just like his boss did 17 years ago.

Manning is going golfing later this week with brothers Cooper and Eli – whose trip to Denver on Monday morning was scuttled by a stomach bug.

Manning plans to travel to Indianapolis this month for a lower-key goodbye, nothing like this one, and said he’ll still participate in his family’s annual passing academy this summer.

Aside from that, it’s anybody’s guess.

Maybe a front office or a broadcast booth beckons. He hasn’t ruled out anything other than this: He and his wife and 5-year-old twins won’t be moving out of Denver. They love it here.

“I’m totally convinced that the end of my football career is just the beginning

of something I haven’t even discovered yet,” Manning said. “Life is not shrinking for me; it’s morphing into a whole new world of possibilities.”

Monday wasn’t a day to look ahead but a time to take stock.

“When I look back on my NFL career, I’ll know without a doubt that I gave everything I had to help my teams walk away with a win,” Manning said.

“There were other players who were more talented, but there was no one who could out-prepare me, and because of that I have no regrets.”

Elway thanked Manning for coming to Colorado, saying he made his own job easier, noting that with Manning living here, free agents basically were asking Elway “where do I sign?”

• Tuesday, March 8, 2016

In the early parts of Bears general manager Ryan Pace’s roster overhaul in March 2015, he made a statement by not re-signing Charles Tillman or Lance Briggs. Chris Conte went to Tampa and Stephen Paea went to Washington.

In fact, the only players Pace resigned who stuck to the Bears’ roster throughout the season were Zach Miller, Sherrick McManis and Demontre Hurst.

Starting Wednesday, and in the weeks to come, Pace can do more re-signing than he did last offseason, specifically with players he brought to Chicago in the first place on one-year, “prove-it” deals. Although the focus is understandably on the wealth of cap space the Bears have to sign free agents, they have decent options to bring back to make the 2016 Bears better.

Decisions have been made on the Bears’ top two free agents – running back Matt Forte will be playing elsewhere in 2016 and receiver Alshon Jeffery will be playing on the franchise tag or a long-term deal.

Miller is the next-most heralded of this year’s free agents and could come at a big price. His leverage only will increase if the Bears trade or cut fellow tight end Martellus Bennett, as has been reported.

“What happens at this stage in the game is you understand the reality that a lot of times, these guys have to

Thanksgiving certainly resonates, but Porter’s play slipped down the stretch.

The Bears need help at corner, and Porter will be cheaper than some of the cover men in free agency.

Jarvis Jenkins started 15 games at defensive end, another position of need for the Bears. In response to a fan on Twitter asking whether Jenkins would return to the Bears, he tweeted, “Sure hope so my man.” Jenkins’ production in the first few weeks didn’t continue for a full season.

Sam Acho and Jacquizz Rodgers, two of Pace’s other one-year, prove-it players from 2015 free agency, certainly could return to help on special teams and provide depth at linebacker and running back, respectively, for a low cost.

Marc Mariani provided clutch play on offense, while Mitch Unrein was a spark on the defensive line (and in the backfield). Sherrick McManis and Chris Prosinski are solid special-teams players. All four would be fine re-signings on minimum contracts.

And then there’s linebacker Shea McClellin. As much as defensive coordinator Vic Fangio raved about McClellin, his play suffered down the stretch, but the former first-round pick might just get one more chance with the Bears.

“We like Shea,” Pace said. “We feel like his arrow is still pointing up, especially at the inside linebacker position.

I thought our defensive coaches did a great job with him. It’s a decision we’re going to have to make.”

4 COLLEGE BASKETBALL: MID-AMERICAN CONFERENCE TOURNAMENT

Defense sends NIU to Cleveland, final 8

By JESSE SEVERSON

jseverson@shawmedia.com DeKALB – As it had done all season, the Northern Illinois men’s basketball team found a way to win at home – now it needs to find a way to win three games in Cleveland.

Playing without one of their best players, the No. 7-seeded Huskies used a dominating defense to propel themselves to a 56-50 win over No. 10 Western Michigan in the first round of the Mid-American Conference tournament Monday night at the NIU Convocation Center, improving to 18-1 at home this season.

“They’ve been very supportive, we’ve had great crowds this year,” said NIU coach Mark Montgomery, who even grabbed a microphone immediately after the game to address the crowd of 1,594. “I would have liked to have been (19-0), we’d probably already be in Cleveland resting, but credit the guys. It’s no given when you’re at home. You still have to earn it.”

The Huskies (21-11) advance to play No. 2 Ohio at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at Quicken Loans Arena.

In the win over Western Michigan on Monday, senior Travon Baker scored a game-high 18 points on 5-for-15 shooting but had a critical stretch in the second half in which he scored seven straight points for the Huskies. After the Broncos (13-19) tied it at 42 with a threepoint play by Tucker Haymond (17 points) with 5:35 left, Baker answered with a 3-pointer on the top of the arc, and the Huskies led the rest of the way.

“Travon Baker made probably the biggest 3 in a long time to put us up three,” Montgomery said of Baker, who followed up that 3 with a pair of free throws and a jumper.

The Huskies were without starting sophomore center Marin Maric (12.3 points, 8.5 rebounds a game) for the second straight game, but have won both contests. Montgomery said the Huskies missed Maric’s physical play in the post against the Broncos, but said he likely will be in the lineup Thursday against the Bobcats.

NIU freshman center Levi Bradley had a double-double off the bench with 13 points and 12 rebounds, and junior guard Aaric Armstead added 12 points and made a pair of critical free throws down the stretch.

The Huskies led, 49-47, with 37 seconds left in the game and with about 26 seconds on the shot clock when Western Michigan coach Steve Hawkins elected to foul Armstead and extend the game by forcing NIU to shoot free throws the rest of the way. The Huskies finished 7 for 8 from the line in the final 33 seconds.

“There was about a 12-second differential

Buffalo vs. Miami (Ohio), 8 p.m. in the clock, I think it was, and so do we foul right away or do we let it go down?” Hawkins said of his thinking. “If they score, that’s a really bad time to have. You’re in between what to do and what not to do. That’s one of the worst time differences you can have when you’re down two.”

Western Michigan sophomore guard Thomas Wilder, who came into the game leading the conference with an average of 20.4 points a game in MAC play, finished 0 for 6 with no points in 12 minutes and didn’t play in the second half. Hawkins said Wilder was suffering from turf toe and aggravated it during the game.

After losing 12 of 13 meeting against Western Michigan, the Huskies have won two straight against the Broncos – both in DeKalb.

SPORTS BRIEFS Jury awards Andrews $55M in lawsuit over nude video

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – A jury awarded Erin Andrews $55 million Monday in her lawsuit against a stalker who bought a hotel room next to her and secretly recorded a nude video, finding that the hotel companies and the stalker shared in the blame.

After a full day of deliberations, the panel said the stalker was responsible for 51 percent of the verdict and the two hotel companies should share the rest, which is almost $27 million.

Andrews, a Fox Sports reporter and co-host of the TV show “Dancing with the Stars,” wept as jurors announced the verdict. She hugged her attorneys, family and several jurors after the verdict was read.

The jury heard directly from Andrews, who testified she was humiliated, shamed and suffers from depression as a result of the video, which has been viewed by millions of people online. She had asked for $75 million.

An FBI investigation would later reveal that Michael David Barrett shot videos in hotels in Nashville and Columbus, Ohio, and posted them online. The trial focused on the video shot in 2008 at the Nashville Marriott at Vanderbilt.

On Friday, Davidson County Circuit Court Judge Hamilton Gayden found Barrett at fault and left it up to jurors to decide if the hotel owner, West End Hotel Partners, and former operator, Windsor Capital Group, should share any responsibility. The hotel is a franchise and Marriott was not part of the trial.

Warriors break Bulls’ record; Curry 1st to 300 3s in season

OAKLAND, Calif. – Stephen Curry scored 41 points and became the first player in NBA history to make 300 3-pointers in a season, and the Golden State Warriors (56-6) set another record in a season full of them by holding off the Orlando Magic, 119-113, Monday night for their 45th straight home victory.

The Bulls held the previous record, a streak of 44 games from March 30, 1995, to April 4, 1996.

Curry shot 7 for 13 from 3-point range and pulled down 13 rebounds. He has 301 3s with 20 games to go.

as bad luck.

Bad luck that wasn’t going away.

Besides being without Butler, Aaron Brooks (right patellar tendinitis) and Bobby Portis (left orbital contusion) were knocked out of the game and did not return.

“Just being tough,” Taj Gibson said of yet another short-handed win.

“Just having the will to win. Guys have been battle-tested. Even in those game where we got beat up a lot and took a lot of tough [losses]. Everybody has to do whatever it takes to get the win. Get the loose balls, just be scrappy. Any small little play can help you go far and help you win games.’’

Not that Milwaukee offered much resistance, as Pau Gasol had his second triple-double of the season, scoring 12 points with 17 rebounds and 13 assists, and Derrick Rose led the team in scoring, putting up 22 points on 9-for-18 shooting.

What Hoiberg was more impressed with was the team again getting off to a quick start for a second consecutive game, outscoring Milwaukee 25-16 in that first quarter.

“We came out of the gate with the right mentality, especially holding them to 16 in the first quarter,” Hoiberg said. “That was a big emphasis in this one, getting off to a fast start.”

BLACKHAWKS

Ladd, Hawks have changed in 2nd go-round

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com CHICAGO – The last time Andrew Ladd wore a Blackhawks sweater, he was surrounded by a bunch of brash kids full of talent and full of themselves – a group Patrick Kane famously described as “too young and dumb” to know any better.

“Well, he was young and dumb at the time,” Ladd said. “But the rest of us weren’t.”

Ladd’s been in Chicago for less than two weeks, and he already is chirping about the team’s biggest star. It’s been that easy a transition for the Hawks’ prized trade-deadline acquisition, who has slid right back into old friendships and old habits. Almost six years after he was traded to the Atlanta Thrashers, it’s as if he never left.

He quickly has found chemistry with Jonathan Toews on the Hawks’ top line, with a goal and two assists in his

first four games, and has made an immediate impact on the already-dangerous Hawks power play. But it’s not exactly like old times for Ladd. Although he has talked about his own development as a player as a top-liner and a captain for the Winnipeg Jets, the Hawks have changed, too. Those brash young kids are now cagey, battle-tested veterans. Andrew Ladd Joel Quenneville has fine-tuned his system and his coaching style. Then there’s last summer’s dressing-room renovation.

But most of all, the attitude in that room has changed. That 2010 team lived and died with every victory, the emotional roller coaster of the regular season taking a mental toll. The Hawks are older, wiser and far more level-headed.

Winning three Stanley Cups in six seasons has a way of giving a player some

perspective on what truly matters.

“That’s probably the biggest thing, is they’re not focused on the ups and downs of needing to win every game in the season,” Ladd said. “They have confidence that if they have an outing where they’re not at their best, they’ll get back there the next game and keep rolling. The most important time of year is when the playoffs start.”

Ladd watched the Hawks’ success from afar with a mix of joy and jealousy.

He lives near Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook in the summer, and whereas Ladd’s season usually ended in midApril, Keith and Seabrook wouldn’t make it home until almost July. Ladd even attended Seabrook’s Stanley Cup party last summer. Like so many other Hawks who were jettisoned after that remarkable 2010 Cup run, Ladd still wonders what could have happened had that team not been decimated by the salary cap.

“There are always what-ifs, for

sure,” Ladd said. “But it really didn’t bother me (to see them win). Maybe just because I’m close friends with them and I’m happy for them. And maybe because I’ve done it twice myself.”

Then he paused, then he smiled.

“Maybe when they got the third Cup, I was a little more [ticked] off,” he joked. “I think there’s always thoughts what would have happened if they were able to keep that group together. But I don’t live life that way. You’ve got to move on, and I think I’m a much more well-rounded person and player now that I’m back.”

His teammates are, too – more confident on the ice, healthier at the training table, more grown-up at home, and more charitable in the community.

Ladd marveled at how connected the city has become with the Hawks, noting he already has been recognized on the street more in the past two weeks than he was during his entire two-year stint in Chicago.

• Tuesday, March 8, 2016

CHICAGO – Fred Hoiberg admittedly has peeked ahead.

Not far enough to recite the remaining 20 games left on the regular-season schedule, but far enough to know that if each game isn’t met with a certain urgency, 20 games is all this team will have left to play before taking an unexpected early summer vacation.

“Right now the way we’re looking at it, it’s a one-game playoff series,” Hoiberg said of each game remaining.

Starting with Milwaukee on Monday night, as the Bulls beat the struggling Bucks, 100-90, at the United Center, and again did so short-handed.

After declaring the Bulls were a healthy product after the morning shootaround, Hoiberg announced before the game that Jimmy Butler was out with swelling in his left knee. Not

Check that: Without Butler, the Bulls (32-30) have struggled on both ends.

Although they were able to get by Milwaukee, in the 11 games Butler missed with the strain, the Bulls were 3-8. With Butler headed for further testing the next few days, and upcoming games in San Antonio, home against Miami, and then in Toronto and Washington, this is not a team that can afford to be without its best all-around player.

Meanwhile, almost lost in all the Butler injury talk is how the organization has done a complete 180 when it comes to the narrative of injuries this AP photo season.

6 WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

Patience pays off; Jackson joins Sox Abreu’s 3 hits help Sox top Angels

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

GLENDALE, Ariz. – As offseasons go, this was the longest for Austin Jackson, who waited … and waited … and waited to find a new home.

Jackson finally found one with the White Sox, signing a one-year, $5 million deal Sunday and wasting no time getting to their spring training camp Monday morning. Brought on board to strengthen the Sox’s outfield depth and to possibly be their regular center fielder, Jackson was all smiles after being introduced to and working out with his new team.

“It’s awesome. You miss the clubhouse, just seeing your teammates each and every day and just bond with them,” said Jackson, who checked in with 23 days left in spring training. “I’m not sure if I know everybody’s name yet, but I’m working around to it. I can already tell right now it’s a fun clubhouse. I’m looking forward to it.”

Like his former Cubs teammate Dexter Fowler for the past couple of months of the 2015 season, Jackson, 29, had interest from other teams but had to wait out a super slo-mo free-agent market for outfielders.

There was no qualifying offer attached to Jackson, who is represented

by Scott Boras, but still.

“I talked to Dex quite a lot this past

TEMPE, Ariz. – Jose Abreu had three hits in the White Sox’s 9-4 victory over a Los Angeles Angels split squad Monday.

Dioner Navarro added two hits and two RBIs, and Steve Lombardozzi hit a two-run homer in the seventh.

Mike Trout had his first homer and first stolen base of the spring for the Angels.

Trout connected in the third inning against Sox starter Erik Johnson, who gave up four runs on three hits in three innings. His line was spoiled some when left fielder Jerry Sands misplayed a two-run double by Kole Calhoun, but otherwise Johnson looked sharp in his competition to earn the fifth spot in the Sox’s rotation.

offseason,” Jackson said. “We were kind of in the same boat. So it was good to talk to someone I played with and who was also going through some of the same things. We shared things back and forth with each other.”

They sat home and had their patience tested to the hilt as the big three outfield-

“You’re kind of just waiting your turn,” said Jackson, who batted .267/.311/.385 over 527 plate appearances between the Mariners and Cubs last season. “There’s a pecking order, so you kind of see what’s going on. You’re informed of what’s going on but most likely those guys are going to have to get

signed before you do. That’s just how it is.

“Once you get to this point in spring training, teams start to see maybe what else they might need – depth and things like that. I think I kind of fell into that category.”

Jackson reportedly could have signed for a bit more with the Angels but preferred an opportunity to play center field, where he was a mainstay for the Detroit Tigers from 2010 to ’14 and for the Seattle Mariners after that. The Cleveland Indians also were interested.

Sox center fielder Adam Eaton also prefers center but said he would play in a corner if that was best for the team.

Jackson has played all three outfield spots through college, the minor leagues and the majors and right now is stuck as a designated hitter while he builds up his arm strength after offseason surgery.

“Anyone who would put a team together would want three center fielders out there,” Eaton said. “It’s only going to improve our defense, our personnel and make us a better team.

“Jackson can run. I don’t know where he may hit or even where I may hit. I think all that stuff is up in the air now.”

“He can defend very well in the outfield, and in center field, so there’s an opportunity to have him go out there and Eaton can move around a little bit,’’ manager Robin Ventura said.

CUBS SPRING TRAINING

Hammel intent on having seasonlong success

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

MESA, Ariz. – It takes only one look to see from the outside how much Cubs pitcher Jason Hammel has been transformed since last season.

The Jake Arrieta knockoff beard he brought to camp is maybe a week or two from going the full Revenant.

“I told him he needs Jason Hammel to grow that out for some time now,” Arrieta deadpanned. “So it’s good to see.”

The real differences in Hammel – the changes that might transform the look and depth of the Cubs’ rotation – aren’t so easy to spot at first glance.

And three weeks into spring training, Hammel said he’s getting tired of talking about it, especially the part about what

started managing games like playoff games.

It was also a day Hammel wants to forget but hasn’t been allowed to – and that might be one of the strongest motivators in his transformation.

“I’d like to just squash that one,” he said of the hook that shocked him at the time. “Obviously, you get fired up because you start a game, and your main job is to finish what you start. I just wasn’t doing it.”

After the season, he went outside his familiar circles to get fresh looks at his conditioning programs and pitching mechanics. And the changes started quickly, both inside and out.

“I changed up the diet, changed up the workout routine to focus more on legs and made small mechanical adjustments so that I’m using my legs – now I’m stronger there – to carry me deeper into the season,” he said. “So at the end of the year my arm will be there.”

8 COLLEGE FOOTBALL: ILLINOIS

New AD makes splash, hires Lovie Smith

By DAVID MERCER

The Associated Press

CHAMPAIGN – In a conference where Jim Harbaugh’s star power and Urban Meyer’s national-title pedigree dominate the news, Illinois has become an afterthought, and the headlines lately have been about the coaches who have been fired or accused of misbehavior.

Illinois hopes to put an end to all that with a big name of its own: Lovie Smith.

The Illini made a splash of the positive variety Monday by announcing the hiring of Smith, the former coach of the Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The move came two days after athletic director Josh Whitman, in his first official day on the job, fired Bill Cubit after a single season in Champaign. He turned to Smith, who took the Bears to the 2007 Super Bowl and was dismissed as coach of the Buccaneers in January.

The low-key Smith said he intends to make the Illini a power in the Big Ten, and not try to match the styles of his new rivals. He also said he hopes that, at 58, he finishes his football career at Illinois.

“It’s pretty simple,” Smith said during a news conference in a room overflowing with reporters, fans and his family. “We just want to play winning football. I want to see the time come when our stadium is full, when people are excited about what we’re doing and

Lovie Smith talks during a news conference to introduce him as coach of the University of Illinois football team Monday in Champaign. leaving the games with a big smile on their face.”

“I’m going to do it my way and feel comfortable with that,” he said, although adding that he will add a Twitter

account and take other steps needed to compete in a social-media world. “In the end, people, they want to be able to look you in the eye and believe what you’re saying and trust what you’re saying is

exactly how it’s going to be.”

This is the first college head coaching job for Smith and his first job in college football since leaving Ohio State in 1995.

He faces a daunting task: Illinois has had six losing seasons in the past eight years, and the program is recovering from allegations of player abuse that led the school to fire coach Tim Beckman a week before last season started.

Smith agreed to a six-year contract worth $21 million, including $2 million a year for the first two seasons.

Whitman said hiring a coach of Smith’s stature was a statement, one he said former Illinois coach and Smith assistant Ron Turner helped set up by reaching out to Smith. Turner, now the coach at Florida International, was fired

by Smith when Smith led the Bears.

Whitman said Smith should not have a problem transitioning back to college.

“Lovie’s going to be a great recruiter,” he said. “There’s not a living room in America that’s not going to open up their doors to Lovie Smith and his coaching staff.”

Smith is the first black head coach in football or men’s basketball at Illinois, which has been criticized by state lawmakers and others for never hiring a black coach for either program. University trustee James Montgomery, an Illinois graduate who is black, called Smith’s contract a bargain.

Smith’s transition to college likely will take time It is difficult to know what to make of rookie University of Illinois athletic director Josh Whitman’s firing of football coach Bill Cubit and hiring of Lovie Smith.

Although Cubit probably overachieved coaching a 5-7 record out of the mess he inherited from Tim Beckman and probably deserved to work through the first year of his two-year deal without an interim tag, he had to know when he accepted such a short offer, it came with no security and that the new AD would want his own guy.

It is appropriate to feel bad for Cubit but almost impossible to fault Whitman for removing him from the position nine months earlier than he was destined to do anyway.

Whitman erred badly in not making sure the current Illinois football players got the news either from Cubit or him before almost all of them heard it on social media, TV or radio. Hopefully, that is a rookie mistake he will learn from.

All of that is pretty cut and dried.

What is not is the hiring of Smith to

VIEWS Hub Arkush overhaul and oversee Illini football over the next six seasons.

Smith spent 13 years as either linebackers or defensive backs coach at six FBS schools, including a year at Wisconsin in 1987 and a year at Ohio State in 1995 before moving to the NFL. He does have some college experience and a casual acquaintance with the Big Ten. At the same time, that was more than 20 years, and he’s never run a college program or built a recruiting plan or base.

I’m sure Smith will figure it out, and his NFL experience will do a lot to open doors to recruits’ living rooms, and he will do fine once he makes it to the sofa.

But how many of the six years on his new contract will it take before he’s ready to recruit head-to-head with the

Ohio States, Michigans, Wisconsins and Notre Dames who will be his closest and toughest competition?

There is also this: Smith was not a popular coach with fans his last few years in Chicago, which is how Phil Emery got a pass on firing him after a 10-6 season.

Respected is good; well-liked is better, so it will be interesting to see just how well Smith is able to recruit.

Equally important is Smith the head coach. In 11 NFL seasons, he is 89-87 with five winning seasons, five losing seasons and one .500 campaign.

Smith is known as a good-to-brilliant defensive coach who has struggled with the other side of the ball.

How will that play coaching a college game that has skewed heavily to spread and read-option offenses in recent seasons?

Great defense always will keep a team competitive, but it is more than coincidence that the scores of the past two FBS championship games have been Ohio State 42-Oregon 20 and Alabama 45-Clemson 40.

What kind of staff will Smith be able to put together?

In 11 seasons as a head coach, Smith’s coaching tree includes one coach who also became a head coach, Ron Rivera, who Smith fired mainly because he was Jerry Angelo’s choice and too good at what he did.

With most of the best coaches already employed as spring practices kick off, it’s a safe bet Smith’s 2017 staff will be fairly different from the one he puts together this year.

In the most important category, Smith scores highly as the majority of his Bears players swore by him over the years, and that bodes well for the university and its athletes.

But will Smith ever contend for Big Ten titles, and if so, how long will it take? There are an awful lot of questions to answer before anyone can predict that.
