Good morning, McHenry County ...

Motorcyclists return to county roads I was 18, driving home from my high school team’s soccer practice, when I moved from the right lane to the left. I’m not sure what I was thinking (or not thinking), but after changing lanes I looked left, and there was a motorcycle riding alongside me in the wrong lane, against traffic. The cyclist looked my way, and I saw it was one of my teammates. He glared angrily at me before speeding up and pulling in front of me.

I then realized I had cut him off and forced him into the wrong lane. A sense of panic set in even though everything turned out OK. I recall this today because, with the nice weather this past weekend, motorcyclists have returned to area roadways. And they were out in packs in McHenry County.

Unfortunately, there were a few motorcycle crashes throughout the county this weekend in-

NEW YORK – Hotels are getting more aggressive in their fight to get travelers to book reservations directly with them instead of through online travel agencies such as Expedia and Priceline.

Hyatt Hotels Corp. on Monday became the latest chain to offer guests a discount for booking a room directly on its own website. Members of its Gold Passport loyalty program can save up to 10 percent at hotels in the U.S., Canada and Australia.

The move follows similar campaigns by Hilton Worldwide, Marriott International and Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide. Hotel companies rely on online travel booking sites to bring travelers to their properties and fill rooms, but companies such as Expedia and Priceline charge commissions of 15 percent or higher.

JACOBSON NOT RESIGNING

Residents sign petition asking Hebron leader to step down

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com HEBRON – At a packed Village Board meeting Monday, Hebron Village President John Jacobson said he was not resigning.

It was the first Village Board meeting after Jacobson was arrested March 22 on drugs and firearms charges. After a March 17 incident, police said they found cocaine, drug paraphernalia and a shotgun and ammunition in his home.

“You’re all aware of my current legal situation,” Jacobson said before public comment started. “I ask you to please recognize that none of the alleged conduct in any way

implicates or involves my capacity as a village official.”

About 40 people and all of the village trustees filled Village Hall, and the board approved all items listed

on the agenda except for a mosquito contract for 2016, which was tabled, before Jacobson made his comments and opened up the meeting for public comment.

“I love this town. I care for it. I’ve stressed over it. But that’s all I’m going to say. As far as my personal thing, there’s no more comments,” Jacobson said.

While Jacobson said he does not plan on resigning “right now,” he declined questions from the media on why he made the decision.

After his comments, Hebron resident Inga Santoro presented Jacobson with a petition signed by 232 residents asking for his resignation.

Resident Lisa Georgi then presented a petition to the trustees asking for a full audit of the village by an independent agency.

“This petition includes 215 residents who are requesting this action,” Georgi said. “Take action.

Village wants say whether widow receives money

George M. Colomer 64

Francis James Daley 79, Algonquin

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com FOX LAKE – The Fox Lake Police Pension Board on Monday scheduled a hearing on the village’s request to have a say in whether the board should award a pension to the widow of Fox Lake Police Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz.

Melodie Gliniewicz submitted her formal application to receive her husband’s pension as she faces felony money laundering, conspiracy and misuse of charitable funds charges stemming from her alleged involvement in years of theft from the youth explorer program her husband ran.

She has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Investigators in November said fear that his illegal activities were going to be exposed led Joseph Melodie Gliniewicz to shoot himself Gliniewicz the morning of Sept. 1 and stage his suicide to look like a homicide.

When Melodie Gliniewicz submitted her application, village officials filed a petition to intervene so they would be able to weigh in on the process that otherwise would include only the five-member pension board and the applicant.

“We are not taking any stance on this right now,” Village Administrator Anne Marrin said. “Right now, we want to get to the table. We want to have the discussion. We want to gain some insight, and we want it to be fair and equitable. But we

The 30-year police veteran’s pension could total more than $1 million over the next 20 years, Marrin said.

The May 25 hearing will not deal with the application from Melodie Gliniewicz, 51, board attorney Laura Goodloe said.

The hearing will allow both parties to present their arguments in support of or in response to the village’s petition to intervene.

“This will be a hearing on only the intervention peAnne Marrin tition,” Goodloe said. “We are not going into the merits of the application, as whether the municipality will become a party has yet to be determined.”

State law prohibits convicted felons from receiving a pension if their criminal activity related to their public service.

However, Joseph Gliniewicz’s alleged crimes did not come to light until after his death.

“A case of this nature has never happened,” Marrin said. “It’s something we are just kind of walking through right now, taking the steps for what we feel is the right course to take.”

Cary minibike crash likely involved alcohol, police say

CARY – Police believe alcohol was likely a factor in a minibike crash that critically injured a 49-year-old Cary man and remains under investigation.

The man remained in the hospital Monday after the Sunday evening crash, Lake County Sheriff’s Detective Chris Covelli said.

The preliminary investigation shows the man was traveling west on Fox River Road when he lost control of the minibike and crashed east of Hickory Nut Grove Road outside Cary, police and fire officials said.

Flight for Life flew the man to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville with injuries that were considered life-threatening, police had said.

Cary Fire Protection District Lt. Michael Douglass had said the man was not wearing a helmet.

Man faces DUI charge after fleeing site of T-bone crash

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com WONDER LAKE – A 24-year-old Wonder Lake man was charged with driving under the influence after police said he broadsided a truck in Wonder Lake and fled the scene.

McHenry County Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched about 9 p.m. Sunday to the area of Barnard Mill Road and Wonder Woods Drive after a 1995 Jeep struck a 2004 Ford pickup truck being driven by a 26-year-old McHenry man,

Deputy Aimee Knop said.

The driver of the Jeep, whom Knop identified at Stefan Sabo, ignored police and instead continued to drive at a slow speed until his vehicle became inoperable in the area of Balsam and Chestnut drives, Knop said.

A Wonder Lake Fire Stefan Sabo Protection District crew took Sabo to Centegra Hospital – McHenry, where Knop said he was

treated and released.

Upon his release, Sabo was taken to McHenry County Jail, Knop said.

Records show he posted bond Monday morning and was released.

Sabo was charged with leaving the scene of a personal injury crash, a Class 4 felony, as well as DUI and fleeing and eluding, both Class A misdemeanors. Knop said Sabo also was issued several traffic citations.

If convicted of the felony charge, Sabo could face between one and three years in prison.

Foundation to match SleepOut donations NORTHWEST HERALD McHENRY – For the second year in a row, the McHenry County Community Foundation is partnering with Pioneer Center for Human Services to offer a 2-to-1 match on all SleepOut for Shelter donations up to $100,000.

SleepOut for Shelter is an annual fundraiser and awareness event for McHenry County PADS, the homeless program of Pioneer Center. Participants’ donations now will go three times as far because of the match. The event will be May 14 at the Church of Holy Apostles in McHenry.

“The Community Foundation is pleased to partner with Pioneer Center in support of the annual SleepOut for Shelter event – and ultimately create a solid base of financial support for another year of this critical program,” said Robin Doeden, executive director of the foundation. “The tremendous community support generated through this event – as well as the awareness it creates for the homelessness topic across our county – makes this partnership even more important.”

McHenry County PADS merged with Pioneer Center in 2005, and since then has offered emergency and transitional housing coupled with support services in order to help individuals who have become homeless work toward becoming self-sufficient. These support services enable individuals to receive case management, access to vocational programs, life skills training and counseling, as well as day-to-day

Despite a battle with funding cuts, McHenry County PADS officials said their services remain in high demand.

“We are so grateful for the support of the McHenry County Community Foundation,” said Sam Tenuto, interim president and CEO for Pioneer Center. “Their support of our community and the people in it is tremendous as displayed by this generous matching grant for SleepOut for Shelter.”

BARRINGTON – A 54-year-old Lake Barrington woman was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident after a chain-reaction crash Monday morning on Route 14, Lake County Sheriff’s Detective Chris Covelli said.

Five vehicles were involved in the crash Monday morning on Route 14 between Barrington and Fox River Grove, police said.

The woman’s vehicle was traveling east on Route 14 near 24th Street, unincorporated Barrington, when it failed to stop for traffic in front of it that was stopped, Covelli said.

The collision caused a chain-reaction crash involving five cars carrying eight people, Covelli said.

Covelli said no one was seriously injured in the crash or taken to the hospital, which delayed traffic on Route 14 at the tail end of the morning commute.

Hebron Village President John Jacobson listens to residents’ concerns during Monday’s Village Board meeting in Hebron.

The board had its first meeting since Jacobson was arrested on drug and firearms charges after a March 17 incident.

Continued from page A3 Serve the people of Hebron as you are sworn to do. You have been elected to represent us. Make sure that you are representing our best interests as a community.”

During public comments, members of the audience questioned everything from the village’s purchase of holiday lights to the high water bills to Jacobson’s role in the village.

As Jacobson called the meeting to a close, resident John Santoro added in a final comment: “I know you don’t like to discuss your personal life, but your personal life affects this town big time … ” Jacobson interjected, “I’m not discussing anything. Meeting’s over.”

Trustee Susan Ritzert said after the meeting that while she and other trustees would like to see his resignation, it can’t be forced.

“It’s frustrating, and there’s nothing we can do about it,” Ritzert said.

She also added that the Village Board likely will not do a more indepth, forensic audit, as the petition asked for, because it already does yearly audits and is scheduled for another one in a couple months.

Trustee Mark Mogan, who emailed Jacobson asking for his resignation

Sarah Nader – snader@ shawmedia.com

after his arrest, said his views have stayed the same.

“He needs to get his life in order,” Mogan said. “If he can’t get his life in order, then how can he run a village?”

Mogan also said that while residents questioned purchases such as

STATE

Child advocacy group backs tax proposal

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press

CHICAGO – A leading child advocacy organization threw its support behind a proposal to replace Illinois’ flat income tax with a system to tax the wealthiest residents at higher rates, saying Monday that the nearly $2 billion in expected revenue could help struggling social services.

The graduated income tax plan, revived last week by a deputy to House Speaker Michael Madigan, would be contingent on voter approval since it alters tax code. Democratic state Rep. Lou Lang of Skokie said he’d like voters in November to consider his idea, which would translate into a tax cut for 99 percent of state residents.

While Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and business groups immediately objected to the proposal, an advocacy group for social service providers said it could bring in much needed revenue.

“This will allow the tools we need

News from across the state Illinois education funding amendment gets initial OK

SPRINGFIELD – Voters would be asked to change the Illinois Constitution to declare that the state should be responsible for the majority of public school funding under a measure that advanced in the state House.

Republicans on a House education panel that approved the proposal Monday were skeptical of the idea and say it will make it difficult to fund other budget areas.

Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan said he wants to bolster the state’s constitutional language to call education a fundamental “right” instead of the current language that declares it a “goal.”

He said the word change would strengthen the state’s obligation to fund schools so they’re not so reliant on property taxes.

The amendment would be on November’s ballot if three-fifths of each legislative chamber approves it.

“This will allow the tools we need to not rely on low- and middle-income families.

We truly believe this is one of the best ways to move our state forward.”

New Rockford police chief sworn in Monday

ROCKFORD – Rockford is about to get a new police chief.

The (Rockford) Register Star reported that Dan O’Shea was scheduled to be sworn in on Monday night during the City Council meeting. O’Shea has spent 27 years in law enforcement and comes to Rockford from Elgin, where he was the police department’s operations commander.

O’Shea takes over a police department that has been trying to combat a spike in violent crime. He said his plans to knock down the number of violent crimes that spiked 24 percent last year in the city include working closely with other law enforcement agencies, including the FBI. He said he also hopes to battle street gangs by using the courts to make it illegal for gang members to associate with each other.

Chicago announces plan to upgrade lights on streets

CHICAGO – Chicago is going to get brighter.

In a news release, Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced plans to upgrade more than 270,000 lights on its streets, alleys and parks by replacing outdated and inefficient high-pressure sodium lamps with LED lights.

General Assembly in 2014, and Madigan has unsuccessfully pushed for a surcharge on annual personal incomes over $1 million.

Rauner’s administration said in a statement that Lang’s proposal would send Illinois “even further into economic doldrums.” The Illinois Chamber of Commerce questioned the impact on small-business owners and predicted top earners would move away.

Rauner and legislative Democrats remain at impasse over a state budget for the fiscal year that began in July.

The tax plan and a coinciding proposal to allow voters to decide on overhauling the state’s income tax system were expected in committee this week.

But lawmakers will need to act quickly with a May 9 deadline to submit the proposed constitutional amendment ahead of November’s election, election officials said. Also, a constitutional amendment requires a three-fifths majority vote, including 71 House votes,

which is the total number of House Democrats.

Illinois’ current income tax rate for individuals is 3.75 percent, falling from 5 percent in January 2015 as the 2011 temporary income tax increase was rolled back.

Backers of Lang’s plan estimated up to 40,000 tax filers in Illinois – representing both single and joint returns – would pay more.

Lang’s legislation calls for most married taxpayers, filing joint or as head of household, to pay 3.5 percent on an income of $200,000 or less; 3.75 percent for those earning between $200,000 and $750,000; and 8.75 percent on earnings between $750,000 and $1.5 million. For those making over $1.5 million, the rate would be 9.75 percent.

All other taxpayers would pay 3.5 percent on income up to $100,000; 3.75 percent on income between $100,000 and $500,000; 8.75 percent between $500,000 and $1 million; and 9.75 percent on income over $1 million.

The release said the brighter lights will improve visibility and thus make streets, sidewalks and bike paths safer.

Emanuel’s office said that by making neighborhoods brighter at night, it will give residents a “greater sense of safety.”

The release said the project to replace the lights over the next four years will save Chicago money because the new lights use far less electricity than the ones the city uses now and they last three times longer.

After 60-mile chase, man in custody for striking officer

FLORISSANT, Mo. – A man is in custody after allegedly striking an Illinois Department of Conservation police officer with a car near Litchfield, then leading police on a 60-mile chase into Missouri.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that the conservation officer’s injuries do not appear to be serious, but he was taken to a hospital for evaluation.

Authorities said the conservation officer was trying to make a traffic stop Monday morning on a boat ramp at Lake Lou Yaeger. The driver of the car allegedly backed up and the car’s door knocked the officer to the ground.

The car then traveled south on Interstate 55, drove through stop sticks near St. Louis, and traveled to Florissant in St.

Non-tenured faculty at U of Illinois plan strike

CHAMPAIGN – The union that represents University of Illinois faculty who are not on a tenure track plans to strike Tuesday and Wednesday, the group’s local president said Monday.

Members of the Nontenure-Track Faculty Coalition Local 6546 hope the limited strike and picketing gives school administrators at the Urbana-Champaign campus appreciation for non-tenured faculty as the two sides try to find common ground on a contract they’ve been negotiating since October 2014, said Shawn Gilmore, the union president and a literature lecturer.

“We want to demonstrate what it looks like when the non-tenure faculty remove their labor,” he said. “It’s not particularly valued at the moment.”

Union members authorized the limited strike, but an open-ended walkout would require further approval, he said. It isn’t clear how many will strike, Gilmore said, noting that some researchers in charge of labs may stay on the job.

A university spokeswoman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Houston area submerged the release of more than 2,000 after 16 inches of rain falls captive workers.

HOUSTON – More than a foot of rain had fallen by Monday evening in parts of Houston, submerging scores of subdivisions and several major interstate highways, forcing the closure of schools and knocking out power to thousands of residents who were urged to shelter in place.

Four fatalities appeared to be weather-related, authorities said.

Sylvester Turner, mayor of the nation’s fourth-largest city, told residents to stay home to fend off a weather system he called “stubborn.” More rain was projected over the next two to three days, although heavy downpours had subsided and only another half-inch was expected through Monday night, he said.

Rain gauges in parts of Harris County, which includes most of Houston, showed water levels approaching 20 inches since late Sunday, with slightly smaller amounts elsewhere in Southeast Texas as bayous and creeks overflowed their banks.

AP wins Pulitzer for stories on enslaved fishermen

Lawmakers misled on military sex assault cases

WASHINGTON – The Pentagon misled Congress by using inaccurate or vague information about sexual assault cases in an effort to blunt support for a Senate bill that would make a major change in how the military handles allegations of sexual misconduct, an Associated Press investigation found.

Internal government records that summarized the outcomes of dozens of cases portrayed civilian district attorneys and local police forces as less willing than senior military officers to punish sex offenders. The documents buttressed the Pentagon’s position that stripping commanders of their authority to decide which crimes go to trial – as the Senate legislation proposes – will mean fewer victims will get justice because there will be fewer prosecutions.

Clinton, Trump seek to quiet critics in New York The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – From a car wash in Queens to a hockey arena in Buffalo, both parties’ presidential candidates spread out across New York on Monday in a final quest for votes, a surreal scene for a state that hasn’t experienced contested White House primaries in decades.

For Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump, victories in New York on Tuesday could help quiet critics who have questioned their strength as front-runners.

Each has suffered losses in recent contests that emboldened their rivals, although they still lead in delegate counts and are favored in New York.

Clinton, who represented the state as a senator for eight years, spent the final hours of campaigning trying to drive up turnout among women and minorities, her most ardent supporters. Since Sunday, she’s danced to Latin music at a Brooklyn block party, vowed to defend abortion rights to female supporters in Manhattan, prayed at black church in Westchester, drunk a bubble tea at a dumpling shop in Flushing and cheered newly unionized workers in Queens.

“We’re not taking anything for granted,” she said Monday after greeting workers at the Hi-Tek Car Wash & Lube in Queens. “Tell your friends and your family, everyone, to

please vote tomorrow.”

Clinton’s campaign was blunter in outlining the state of the Democratic race. Clinton’s campaign manager Robby Mook declared the primary effectively over, saying Sanders faced a “close to impossible path to the nomination.”

With the contest between Sanders and Clinton becoming increasingly tense, Mook said, the Vermont senator had to choose whether he wanted to stay on a “destructive path” that could hurt the party’s eventual nominee.

Sanders has rattled off a string of wins in recent primaries and caucuses. But unless he can topple Clinton in a state like New York, where 247 Democratic delegates are up for grabs, he faces increasingly limited opportunities to change the trajectory of the race.

While polling shows Clinton with a comfortable lead in New York, Sanders held out hope for a closer race.

“Let’s look at the real poll tomorrow,” Sanders said on NBC’s “Today Show.” “Generally speaking, polling has underestimated how we do in elections.”

For Trump, New York is an opportunity to rebound from a trying stretch for his campaign – and with an exclamation point. The biggest question for him heading into Tuesday is whether he captures more than 50 percent of the vote statewide, which would put him in strong position to win all of the state’s 95 GOP delegates.

BRIEF McConnell ‘optimistic’ GOP convention goes to a 2nd ballot

WASHINGTON – Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he is “increasingly optimistic” that voting at the Republican National Convention in July will go to a second ballot, seeming to suggest he does not want to see Donald Trump become the nominee.

The Kentucky Republican has studiously sought to remain neutral in public, although he has on occasion condemned Trump’s remarks and reportedly told senators in private earlier this year that down-ballot Republicans might drop Trump “like a hot rock.”

McConnell’s comments on WHAS-TV in Louisville over the weekend gave additional insight into his thinking.

McConnell explained the convention process that requires a candidate to amass the support of 1,237 delegates in order to clinch the nomination. While it’s still possible for Trump to reach that number ahead of the GOP convention in Cleveland, it’ll be tough for him to do.

And if he doesn’t succeed, voting would then proceed to a second ballot, with a majority of delegates free to vote for whomever they choose.

U.S. to send supplies to Iraq

By LOLITA C. BALDOR The Associated Press

BAGHDAD – The U.S. has agreed to deploy more than 200 additional troops to Iraq and to send eight Apache helicopters for the first time into the fight against the Islamic State group in Iraq, the first major increase in U.S. forces in nearly a year, U.S. defense officials said Monday.

The uptick in American fighting forces – and the decision to put them closer to the front lines – is designed to help Iraqi forces as they move to retake the key northern city of Mosul.

Speaking to reporters Monday in Baghdad, Defense Secretary Ash Carter said the decision to move U.S. advisers to the Iraqi brigade and battalion level will put them “closer to the action,” but he said they will have security forces with them and the U.S. will do what’s needed to reduce the risks. A senior U.S. official said there will be eight Apache helicopters authorized to help the Iraqi forces when Iraq leaders determine they need them. The official was not authorized to discuss the numbers publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Last June the Obama administration announced that hundreds of troops

would be deployed to help the Iraqis retake Ramadi – a goal they accomplished at the end of the year.

President Barack Obama on Monday emphasized the additional troops won’t be doing the fighting, but the extra training and intelligence support they provide can “continually tighten the noose.”

“As we see the Iraqis willing to fight and gaining ground, let’s make sure we’re providing them more support,” Obama said in an interview with CBS that aired Monday evening.

Obama also predicted success in Mosul: “My expectation is that by the Ash Carter end of the year we will have created the conditions whereby Mosul will eventually fall.”

Of the additional troops announced Monday, most would be Army special forces, who have been used throughout the anti-Islamic State campaign to advise and assist the Iraqis. The remainder would include some trainers, security forces for the advisers, and maintenance teams for the Apaches.

The decisions reflect weeks of discussions with commanders and Iraqi leaders, and a decision by Obama to increase

the authorized troop level in Iraq by 217 forces – or from 3,870 to 4,087. The advise-and-assist teams – made up of about a dozen troops each – would embed with Iraqi brigades and battalions, likely putting them closer to the front lines and at greater risk from mortars and rocket fire.

The U.S., said Carter, is “on the same page with the Iraqi government” in how to intensify the fight against the Islamic State.

Sen. John McCain, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, said the deployment of troops was welcome but called it “yet another example of the kind of grudging incrementalism that rarely wins wars, but could certainly lose one.”

The proximity to the battlefront will allow the U.S. teams to provide more tactical combat advice as the Iraqi units move toward Mosul, the country’s second-largest city, still under Islamic State control. Until now, U.S. advisers have worked with the Iraqis at the headquarters level, well back from the front lines.

Carter called the addition of the Apache helicopters significant, because they can “respond so quickly and so dynamically to an evolving tactical situation.”

Understanding Tools Used in Drafting SPONSORED BY

SM-CL0380541

An individual who creates detailed drawings of buildings, roads, machinery and other objects is known as a drafter. They can specialize in several industries including architectural; mechanical; civil or electrical drafting.

There are several tools of the trade that beginners and experienced drafters will use.

The main tool is a drawing board which is used to provide a smooth, flat surface needed for drafting. These boards can come in a variety of sizes to fit your needs. Another tool is the drafting media which can be several different materials including paper, tracing vellum or film. The medium can come in several different individual sheet sizes or in a roll. Pencils

are another items used by drafters.

The pencil range in hardness from 9H which is very hard to 6B which is very soft. The pencil used will depend on the type of drafting media used. A drafting brush is also used to keep the drawing area free of eraser crumbs and dirt. It is better than using your hand which can cause smudges or streaks. Templates are also used to when drawing standard symbols or figures. Some examples of possible templates include French curves, circles, furniture shapes, etc. These templates are made of thin plastic and come in a variety of sizes.

If you are looking to purchase drafting tools or templates, Reprographics has a large variety of items available.

president’s 2012 effort that applies to people who were brought here illegally as children. More than 700,000 people have taken advantage of that earlier program, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. The new program for parents, known as Deferred Action for Parents of Americans, and the expanded program for children could reach as many as 4 million people, according to the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute.

If the court is split ideologically, the case could end in a 4-4 tie following Justice Antonin Scalia’s death in February. That would leave the programs in limbo, almost certainly through the end of Obama’s presidency.

Both sides acknowledge that the outcome of the presidential election ultimately could determine the programs’ fates, even if the Supreme Court rules for the administration. Republican candidates have pledged to roll back Obama’s actions, and Republican candidate Donald Trump has proposed deporting the roughly 11 million people who are living in the U.S. illegally.

MANTA, Ecuador – Rescuers pulled three people out alive Monday after they had been trapped for more than 32 hours in the rubble of a shopping center that was flattened by this weekend’s powerful earthquake on Ecuador’s coast.

Televised images of the dramatic predawn rescue in the port city of Manta gave Ecuadoreans hope that some of the dozens of people still unaccounted for might yet be found even as the death toll from Saturday’s 7.8-magnitude quake rose to 413. An American and two Canadians were among those confirmed dead from the worst quake to hit Ecuador in decades.

Death of a Salesman

SPONSORED BY

By C.R. Walker Arthur Miller’s “Death of a Salesman” is regarded as one of the greatest plays of the 20th Century.

It’s coming to Crystal Lake this April and May so if you’ve never seen it before, now’s your chance.

The Williams Street Repertory (WSREP) will be performing the play at the Raue Center in Crystal Lake beginning on April 22.

WSREP is a not-for-profit theatre that works with the industries to present excellent award-winning theatre.

Miller’s classic story about a man at the end of his rope was the recipient of the 1949 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and Tony Award for Best Play. It was revived a few times on Broadway, including in 2012 with the late Philip Seymour Hoffman in the lead role. It was also made into a motion picture in 1985 with Dustin Hoffman as the lead.

The story focuses on Willy Loman, who

after a life of honest hard work, hopes to retire with his wife while watching his promising, athletic sons continue his legacy. Those aspirations are threatened though as old age starts to take hold of Loman and retirement beckons. Meanwhile, his perception of the American dream seems to be slipping away further than ever before.

Death of a Salesman compresses epic extremes of humor and anguish, promise and loss, between the four walls of an American living room. Since so many generations have strived for, and perhaps struggled too, in achieving the American Dream, this play has resonated with audiences for decades.

Directed by Richard Kuranda, Death of a Salesman runs through May 15 and features performances by Frank Gaughan, Shannon Mayhall, James Knight, Sean Quinn, Christopher Davis, Sarah Weinstein, Ryan J. Duncan, Mark R. Mahallak, Ivan Ewert, Amanda Flahive, Joel Bennett and Kate Wilford.

WASHINGTON – Conservative Supreme Court justices expressed sharp skepticism about President Barack Obama’s immigration efforts Monday, leaving his actions to help millions of people who are in the country illegally in the hands of a seemingly divided court.

As hundreds of pro-immigration demonstrators and a smaller number of opponents filled the sidewalk outside the court, the justices appeared to split along ideological and partisan lines over a case that pits Republican governors and members of Congress against the Democratic administration.

President Barack Obama’s administration is asking the justices to allow it to put in place two programs that could shield roughly 4 million people from deportation and make them eligible to work in the U.S. Texas is leading 26 states led by Republicans in challenging the programs that Obama announced in 2014 and that

have been put on hold by lower courts.

Those states say the administration usurped power that belongs to Congress, and Justice Anthony Kennedy indicated some support for that view.

“It’s as if ... the president is setting the policy and the Congress is executing it. That’s just upside down,” Kennedy said.

Chief Justice John Roberts also aggressively questioned Solicitor General Donald Verrilli Jr., suggesting there are few limits to the president’s power under the administration’s view of immigration law.

“Under your argument, could the president grant deferred removal to every ... unlawfully present alien in the United States right now?” Roberts asked.

“Definitely not,” Verrilli said. But it was not clear Roberts was satisfied with the answer and subsequent explanation.

The programs would apply to parents of children who are citizens or are living in the country legally. Eligibility also would be expanded for the

Motorcycles back on roads

McHenry County experienced its first nice weather weekend of the spring, and already we’ve seen a handful of crashes involving motorcycles.

On Saturday, a 62-year-old Arlington Heights man was hospitalized with serious injuries after crashing his motorcycle into a ditch near Richmond while trying to make a turn.

On Sunday evening, a man riding his motorcycle in Pistakee Highlands left the roadway and crashed, sending him to the hospital with injuries.

Also on Sunday evening, a man riding a minibike near Cary lost control and crashed, sending him to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.

That’s at least three serious, single-vehicle crashes involving motorcycles in one weekend.

We write this annually, but these For the record incidents stress the need for motorcycle Motorcyclists and those who safety. Motorcyclists share the road with motorand those who share cyclists must take extreme the road with motorcaution on the roads. cyclists must take extreme caution on the roads.

In addition to motorcyclists knowing and practicing the rules of the road, the Motorcycle Safety Foundation lists on its website five key messages for riders: • Get trained and licensed; • Wear protective gear – all the gear, all the time – including a helmet manufactured to the standards set by the department of transportation; • Ride unimpaired by alcohol or other drugs; • Ride within your own skill limits; • Be a lifelong learner by taking refresher rider courses.

Of course, all the helmets and safety classes in the world will not protect a motorcyclist from reckless automobile drivers. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation has these tips for automobile drivers regarding motorcycles: • Take an extra moment to look for motorcycles, whether you’re changing lanes or turning at intersections; • Allow more following distance for motorcycles; • Understand motorcyclists adjust lane position for a purpose, not to be reckless or show off or to allow you to share the lane with them; • Don’t expect a motorcyclist to always be able to dodge out of the way.

With a common-sense approach to motorcycle safety for riders and automobile drivers, we, hopefully, can reverse this recent trend of motorcycle crashes.

Chicago’s lawless police culture

It is much easier to condemn police wrongdoing than it is to fix it. How, for example, do you reform a Chicago Police Department that suffers not from a few bad apples but from a rotten culture of racist policing and official impunity? A city task force empaneled by Mayor Rahm Emanuel (D) attempted an answer in a report made public last week.

The depth of the problem came to national attention with the outrageous killing of Laquan McDonald, an African American man whom police shot 16 times.

Officers told a false story about the threat McDonald posed. Video that contradicted their account was withheld by the city for a year. Prosecutors were slow to act.

The independent review board meant to investigate police abuse turned out to be little more than a rubber stamp run by former law enforcement officials. It examined roughly 400 officer-involved shootings since 2007 – and found problems in precisely one case.

The review board and the police

Bureau of Internal Affairs failed to fully investigate nearly half the complaints they received between 2011 and 2015. Collective bargaining agreements, which discourage officers from reporting on each other and which give officers 24 hours to get their story straight with partners before making statements, “essentially turned the code of silence into official policy,” the panel found.

This broken accountability system has enabled terrible practices. Three-quarters of police shootings between 2008 and 2015 killed or injured African Americans. Chicago police stop people, the vast majority black, at a much higher rate than do police in other major cities. In 2013, Chicago police searched African American drivers at four times the rate of whites, even though they found contraband twice as often on white drivers.

Unsurprisingly, the panel found the Chicago Police Department suffers from widespread mistrust, particularly in the African American community.

Better training is no doubt part of the solution, but hardly enough. The task force recommends creating and adequately staffing a new civilian oversight board and an inspector general’s office to provide another layer of independent oversight. It proposes publication of data on arrests, stops and other police behavior.

Collective bargaining agreements also must be revised. Noting many of the people police pick up are unaware of their rights and legal protections, the panel wants arrestees to be able to call lawyers or family members within an hour of being detained. The task force also recommends expanding the city’s body camera program and monitoring young officers to spot and correct improper conduct early.

A federal investigation of the Chicago police continues.

The Justice Department should demand wide-reaching reforms, particularly if the city does not move swiftly to implement the task force’s recommendations.

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.

IT’S YOUR WRITE

Students need more math

To the Editor: I disagree with Michael Penkava’s “Taking algebra out of life’s equation” (April 2).

In my honest opinion, students need more mathematics, not less. Life is a series of problems. Solutions/conclusions need to be based on evidence, reason, rationality and critical thinking, of which analysis, logic, deductive, inductive are just four of 30 cognitive thinking skills.

Because it’s hard, mathematics causes your brain to grow, creating new neurons and neural pathways in the prefrontal cortex and parietal lobe. One becomes smarter, IQ increases. In the U.S., only 5.4 percent of high school students take calculus. In Japan, 82 percent do. Requiring more math might slow the documented decline of intelligence in America due to smarter and more educated females having significantly fewer children.

Mathematics, with its word problems, proofs and applications in physics, chemistry, computers, etc. are by far the best vehicles to learn how to think critically, and these are the subjects that lead to

VIEWS Rich Miller Illinoisans are quite upset about this stalemate. Many are even downright furious. But imagine the outcry if schools hadn’t opened last year. The first-year governor would’ve been roasted over a spit, and he knew it.

Rauner told reporters not long before Cullerton made his threat last year’s school funding bill was the greatest achievement of his first year in office – even though he told Republican legislators to vote against the K-12 appropriations bill (probably to throw the Democrats off the scent). He has said over and over since Cullerton’s City Club address passing his school funding bill was his top priority, and he even demanded during his budget address it be done right away.

Usually in battles such as these, you try to prevent your opponent from achieving his main goal. And since the governor has let everyone know what his main goal is, it naturally became a target.

Cullerton faithfully reads newspaper editorials and other commentary and oftentimes lets the criticism get

the highest paying jobs. Demographic futurists estimate by 2030, STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) will eliminate 7 million jobs (think robotics) and create 2 million jobs. Jobs lost will come from the lower end of the educational spectrum, and jobs gained from the higher, mathematical end.

Thinking one is not good in math often is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Math anxiety/attitudes are passed down from generation to generation.

The world is comprehensible in the language of mathematics, a language more of us should learn – not because you have to solve for “x” as an adult but because it will enrich your life.

David R. Thiessen

Woodstock

Hultgren should resign

To the Editor: Months ago, I appealed to Congressman Randy Hultgren to investigate political corruption in Illinois. The FBI told me my evidence indicated the

under his skin. So, there’s naturally a whole bunch of suspicion out there that Cullerton won’t follow through or eventually will relent under extreme duress.

But the chance Cullerton might not cave most certainly is helping to push this thing toward a conclusion. Rauner essentially has admitted multiple times with deeds and words no K-12 appropriations bill would lead to an utter catastrophe. And keep in mind he has moved off the dime just about every time he’s been faced with a calamity Republican legislators wanted to avoid.

So, while it may be downright wrong to threaten school kids, teachers and parents this way (and it is wrong, to the point of immorality), somebody had to do something to advance the ball.

The General Assembly almost always waits until things hit a crisis point before it resolves a controversial issue. Pension reforms, numerous tax hikes, medical malpractice reform, etc., etc., etc. all had to wait until the need for them was so great legislators had no choice but to act. Obviously, there would be no greater crisis than the absence of K-12 funding, and there has never been any greater controversy in this state than this standoff.

Frankly speaking, if threatening

to close down the state’s entire public education system doesn’t work, then nothing will. They’ll be arguing over a burned-out hollow shell of a state.

Cullerton has taken a carrot and stick approach. The stick is his K-12 threat. The carrot is the encouragement and assistance he’s offered rank and file legislators who privately have been trying to find an end to this insanity. While other caucuses and the governor’s office now have staff helping out and are even talking with each other, Cullerton has been generous with his staff for quite a while now, deploying them to help work out issues.

Speaker Michael Madigan, meanwhile, was not at all encouraging of the rank and file talks. But allowing his staff to work with those members and to talk with the other staffs is a hopeful sign to many.

Another encouraging sign is Gov. Rauner’s chief of staff has participated in some of the rank and file meetings, as has Rauner’s chief legislative liaison and his budget director. That’s important because, obviously, nothing is going to get done without the governor’s agreement.

“The governor has linked things together,” Senate President John Cullerton said at a speech to the City Club of Chicago in January. “We don’t have a budget because he’s got his ‘Turnaround Agenda.’ So I can link things together, too.”

Cullerton was referring to his threat to not pass any funding for K-12 schools until school funding reform is addressed. Despite being repeatedly blasted by the governor and the Senate Republican leader for planning to take schools “hostage” to “bail out” Chicago’s school system with his funding reform plan, Cullerton has not publicly backed down from his statement.

And I happen to believe Cullerton’s direct and deliberate threat, perhaps more than anything else, has pushed Statehouse types to try to reach a conclusion to this long, crazy impasse.

The governor surprised many Democrats last year when he vetoed the entire budget except the K-12 appropriations bill. He made sure schools would open on time last fall, taking the potential for an extreme crisis off the table. Gov. Bruce Rauner doesn’t seem all that outwardly concerned about the carnage caused by the months-long government impasse, but he made absolutely sure to keep a K-12 shutdown from happening.

Johnson said the group was one of several the village had spoken to regarding the property. He said officials were eager to meet with the new property owners and better understand their future plans.

“Certainly from the village’s standpoint, it is at the front doorstep to the community,” Johnson said. “It is in need of reinvestment, and we’re cautiously optimistic we can achieve what the entire community is looking for, and that’s improvement to that site and that property.”

The property was listed on Craig Realty Group’s website Monday. Although the company is based on the West Coast, it also operates Outlets at The Dells in Baraboo, Wisconsin, and is developing an outlet center in Country Club Hills, according to its website.

Huntley Outlet Center is seen Sept. 23, 2015. The mall’s vacancy rate is near 50 percent, and village officials earlier this summer contracted with a consultant to study possible redevelopment ideas for the mall.

Group, an Indianapolis-based company operating hundreds of malls across the country including in Schaumburg, Gurnee and Aurora, put the mall on the market last year and disclosed few details about the decision.

Simon Property Group spokesman Les Morris cited company policy in declining to comment on the transaction Monday. The center has been removed from the company’s website.

The outlet center was 50 percent oc-

cupied in September, according to previous Northwest Herald reporting, and Johnson said it is less than half full now.

It has struggled despite being near the intersection of Route 47 and Interstate 90, where a $61 million full interchange opened to traffic in 2013.

A consulting study about the center’s redevelopment options from Gruen Gruen & Associates, commissioned by village officials for $9,500 last summer, said the site was at a competitive

The report also said the value of the site as an industrial property would likely not be high enough to justify demolition of the existing buildings and that a “limited-service hotel” could be a feasible use.

LONDON – President Barack Obama has a royal dinner date.

Kensington Palace said Prince William, his wife, Kate, and his brother, Prince Harry, will hold a dinner for the president and first lady Michelle Obama during the U.S. leader’s visit to Britain this week.

The royals’ office said that “their Royal Highnesses are very much looking forward to welcoming President and Mrs. Obama to Kensington Palace.”

William and Kate have met the Obamas several times before, with William visiting the president in the White House during a visit to the U.S. in 2014.

Chicago costume council to honor Bob Mackie

Actor Mark Wahlberg (center left), dressed as a Boston police officer, watches runners cross the finish line Monday as he films a scene for his upcoming “Patriot’s Day” movie at the 120th Boston Marathon in Boston.

Boston Marathon bombing movies filmed during race Monday BOSTON – With the real-life Boston Marathon underway Monday, Hollywood film crews took to the marathon finish line and Fenway Park to shoot scenes for competing movies about the deadly 2013 marathon attacks.

Actor and Boston native Mark Wahlberg donned a Boston police uniform while filming for “Patriot’s Day,” a re-telling of the April 15, 2013, attacks that’s expected to open as early as this December.

The 44-year-old Wahlberg was filmed standing along with other officers on the marathon course as part of the security detail during the race.

He plays a fictional police officer named Tommy Saunders, who is a composite of law enforcement officials who responded to the multi-day manhunt after the bombing and unprecedented shut down of the Boston area. The movie is based on a firsthand account from former Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis.

Jake Gyllenhaal, meanwhile, was at Fenway Park on Monday morning shooting scenes for “Stronger,” a film slated for release sometime in 2017 and based on bombing survivor Jeff Bauman’s memoir of the same name.

Bauman was a spectator who lost both his legs in the attack that killed three people and injured hundreds more. From his hospital bed, the Chelmsford, Massachusetts, native helped police identify brothers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev as the attackers.

The 35-year-old actor and Bauman also threw out the first pitch as the Boston Red Sox took on the Toronto Blue Jays.

The film crews have been shooting scenes throughout Massachusetts in recent months. Gyllenhaal and Bauman were at a Boston Bruins game shooting scenes at TD Garden earlier this month.

CHICAGO – The Chicago History Museum’s Costume Council plans to honor fashion designer Bob Mackie.

Mackie, who is famous for his sparkling, imaginative costume designs, will receive the council’s Designer of Excellence Award on Tuesday. He’s often called the “sultan of sequins, the rajah of rhinestones” and has won numerous Emmy Awards for his designs and been nominated for Academy Awards.

The 77-year-old designer has dressed many in Hollywood including Cher, Diana Ross, Elton John and Carol Burnett.

The Chicago group said its award goes to “visionary designers who have indelibly left their mark on the fashion world.”

The council owns a costume collection and operates a conservation lab. Among its holdings are items from Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln and gospel singer Mahalia Jackson along with Michael Jordan’s basketball uniform.

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s ‘Hamilton’ wins Pulitzer

NEW YORK – “Hamilton,” the hip-hop stage biography of Alexander Hamilton, has won the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for drama, honoring creator Lin-Manuel Miranda for a dazzling musical that has captured popular consciousness like few Broadway shows.

The Columbia University’s prize board on Monday cited “Hamilton” as “a landmark American musical about the gifted and self-destructive founding father whose

story becomes both contemporary and irresistible.” Other finalists were “Gloria,”

by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins and “The Humans,” by Stephen Karam.

“I feel really humbled and really overwhelmed,” Miranda told The Associated Press. “Columbia is Hamilton’s alma mater so I think that gave me a home-court advantage. But it’s extraordinary to be recognized in this way.”

Amber Heard avoids jail in dog smuggling spat

SYDNEY – Actor Johnny Depp’s wife Amber Heard pleaded guilty Monday to providing a false immigration document when the couple brought their two dogs into Australia last year, but she managed to avoid jail time over what was dubbed the “war on terrier” debacle.

Prosecutors dropped more serious charges that Heard illegally imported the Yorkshire terriers, Pistol and Boo, into the country while Depp was filming the fifth movie in the “Pirates of the Caribbean” series. A conviction on the two illegal importation counts could have sent the actress to prison for up to 10 years.

Depp and Heard said little to the waiting throng of reporters and fans outside the Southport Magistrates Court on Queensland state’s Gold Coast, but they did submit a videotaped apology to the court that was played during Monday’s hearing.

Heard apologized and the couple expressed support for protecting Australia’s biodiversity, the aim of the strict quarantine regulations that were violated.

6 tips to keep your Facebook clean, secure and private

By ANICK JESDANUN

no longer use, such as one to track the 2014 Winter Olympics. It’s time to sign out. If you’re not sure you still use it, drop it anyway. You always can sign on again.

The Privacy Checkup tool on PCs will review apps for you automatically. On mobile devices, look for “Apps” in the account settings (not “Apps” in the main menu).

A related option is the Security Checkup tool. It’s an easy way to log out of Facebook on devices you rarely use. You also can enable alerts when someone tries to sign on from a new device or browser. To run this, go to http://Facebook.com/securitycheckup on a PC. On the Android app, you can search for “security checkup” in the Help Center. On iPhones and iPads, you’ll have to find the options individually in the account settings under “Security.”

The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Got hundreds of Facebook friends you hardly know?

Now is a good time to do some digital cleanup, while the year still is fresh. Review your security and privacy settings, and make sure those casual acquaintances you met at a bar eons ago aren’t still getting the most intimate details of your life. Get rid of games and apps that might have latched onto your account years ago, but you no longer use.

Here are six cleanup tips:

Secure your account

You’ve doubtless heard you should have a strong password. It’s especially important for email and social-networking accounts because so much of your digital life revolves around them.

Plus, many other services let you log on using your Facebook account, so if that gets compromised, so will your other accounts.

Because passwords are tough to manage, it’s best not to rely solely on them. Turn on what Facebook calls Login Approvals. It’s in the account settings under “Security.” After you do so, you’re asked for confirmation – entering a special number sent to your phone – when signing on from a new device.

Unless you switch devices often, this is something you set up once and forget about. And no one else can log in with your password unless they also have your phone and that special number.

Review your privacy settings

Facebook offers a series of quick privacy “shortcuts.” On desktops and laptops, look for the small padlock on the upper right corner of the browser.

On Apple and Android devices, access shortcuts through the menu – the three horizontal bars.

The key shortcut is “Who can see my stuff ?” See whether you’ve been inadvertently broadcasting your musings to the entire Facebook community. You’ll probably want to at least limit sharing to “Friends” rather than “Public,” although you can customize that further to exclude certain individuals or groups – such as co-workers,

This frame grab provided by Facebook shows a page that guides a user through a Facebook account security checkup. With 2016 still fresh, it’s a good time to do some digital cleanup to your Facebook account. Review your security and privacy settings, and get rid of acquaintances cluttering your friends list. acquaintances or grandparents. When sharing, remember less is more.

While you’re at it, check “Timeline and Tagging” in your account settings from a PC or mobile. You can insist on approving posts people tag you in.

Note this is limited to what appears on your personal timeline; if Mary tags you in a post, Mary’s friends still will see it regardless of your settings.

That includes friends you may have in common with her.

If you’re on a desktop or laptop, Facebook has a Privacy Checkup tool to review your settings. Look for that padlock. This tool is coming soon to mobile.

Make enemies ... or at least unfriend some

Purge friends you’re no longer in touch with. If you think “unfriending” is too mean, add them to an “Acquaintances” or “Restricted” list instead. “Acquaintances” means they won’t show up in your news feed as often, though they’ll still have full access to any posts you distribute

to your friends. “Restricted” means they’ll only see posts you mark as public. Either is effectively a way to unfriend someone without dropping any clues you’ve done so.

You also can create custom lists, such as “college friends” or “family.”

This is great for oversharing with those who’ll appreciate it, while not annoying everyone else you know and putting yourself in danger of becoming an “acquaintance” yourself. You can create lists on a traditional PC by hitting “More” next to “Friends” to the left of your news feed. Individuals can be in multiple groups. Capabilities are limited on mobile devices, although changes you make on the PC will appear on your phone or tablet.

Watch those apps

Perhaps someone invited you to play a game a few years ago. You tried it a few weeks and moved on, yet the app still is getting access to your data. Or perhaps you’ve used Facebook to log onto a service you

You can exert some influence over whose posts you see more or less often by going to “News Feeds Preferences.” The setting is on the top right on browsers on Android apps and on the lower right on iPhones. Here, you can select friends who’ll always show up on top, or hide someone’s posts completely.

Finally, if you’re worried about data usage, you can stop videos in your news feeds from playing automatically. On Android, go to “Autoplay” in the “App Settings.” On iPhones, it’s in the account settings under “Videos and Photos.”

Plan ahead

Two settings might eliminate grief later in life ... or death.

In the security settings, you can designate certain friends as trusted contacts. They’ll have power to help you if you get locked out of your account for some reason. You also can designate a “Legacy Contact” – a family member or close friend who’d serve as your administrator should you, um, make your last status update (as in, ever). They won’t be able to post on your behalf or see your messages, but they’ll be able to respond to new friend requests and take a few additional actions on your deceased behalf.

NEW YORK – Amazon is taking on Netflix and Hulu with a standalone video streaming service, just weeks before Netflix raises prices for longtime subscribers.

New customers can pay $8.99 a month to watch Amazon’s Prime video streaming service. Previously, the only way to watch Amazon’s videos was to pay $99 a year for Prime membership, which includes free two-day shipping on items sold by the site and other perks.

At $8.99 a month, Amazon’s standalone streaming service is $1 less than Netflix’s standard membership and $1 more than Hulu.

Netflix said earlier this year a “substantial number” of its longtime members who paid $7.99 monthly – and have been protected from price hikes – now will pay an additional $2, starting in May. Amazon’s decision to break off its video streaming service could cause some defections at Netflix, wrote Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter in a note to clients.

Both companies have invested heavily in original and exclusive programming. Netflix has “Orange

“Mozart in the Jungle” and previously-aired HBO shows. With Hulu, users can watch many current TV episodes a day after they air on a network.

Hulu also is growing its exclusive offerings, with “The Mindy Project” and “Difficult People.”

Netflix Inc. declined to comment Monday. Representatives for Amazon and Hulu did respond to a request for comment.

Amazon may be a rival, but Netflix also is an Amazon customer. The Los Gatos, California-based streaming company uses Amazon Web Services to store its content and help run parts of its site and apps.

Besides its stand-alone video service, Amazon also is offering a new pay-as-you-go option for its full Prime membership that costs $10.99 a month and comes with free twoday shipping, streaming and other perks.

Amazon said users who opt to pay $10.99 monthly, instead of the $99 annual fee, can cancel at any time.

Shares of Amazon.com Inc. rose $8.23, or 1.3 percent, to $634.12 in morning trading Monday. Netflix Inc. shares fell $2.37, or 2.1 percent, to $109.14.

Cancer not just matter of bad luck Dear Dr. K: A while back, you commented on a study that said getting cancer was mainly caused by bad luck. You said you thought the study was wrong. Then recently, I heard another study agreed with you. Can you explain?

Dear Reader: In April 2015, I responded to a question about a study from a famous cancer researcher. The media had interpreted the study to say getting cancer was just a matter of “bad luck.” In other words, there was not much people could do to protect themselves against getting cancer.

As I read the original study, I thought its main point was to explain why cancer affects certain organs more than other organs. The authors did say certain types of cancer clearly were caused by factors a person could control. For example, not smoking greatly reduces the risk of lung (and several other) cancers. However, the way the study was presented led the media to conclude otherwise.

The paper created a firestorm among cancer researchers. That’s because a lot of time and money is spent on cancer prevention programs. If getting cancer is just a matter of bad luck and can’t be prevented, then why bother trying to prevent it?

As you say, a new paper on this topic has just been published. It argues strongly many cancers are caused by factors in the environment that can be controlled.

The study concludes only a small fraction of cancers are caused by factors such as defective genes (“bad luck”).

Sometimes genes we inherit from our parents cause cancer. An example is the BRCA1 gene that causes some cases of breast cancer and ovarian cancer. Some people have the bad luck to inherit this gene. However, that doesn’t mean there is

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff nothing a person can do about it. It is possible to test a person to see if they have inherited this gene. If so, the risk of cancer caused by the gene can be greatly reduced by careful monitoring and, if necessary, surgery.

The new paper concludes 70 to 90 percent of cancers are caused by factors in the environment such as tobacco smoke, alcohol and sun exposure. This includes such common cancers as lung, colon, melanoma, stomach and prostate cancers.

It also includes somewhat less common cancers. For example, the paper cites studies finding 75 percent of cases of esophageal cancer are caused by tobacco and excessive intake of alcoholic beverages. It estimates the human papilloma virus causes 90 percent of cases of cervical and anal cancer. It concludes infection of the liver by hepatitis B or hepatitis C viruses causes 80 percent of liver cancer.

By avoiding risk factors, such as smoking and excessive sun exposure, by being tested for cancer-causing infections, such as human papilloma virus, and by getting other cancer-screening tests, you can protect yourself.

As I said in my column last April, we can control our fate, though not completely. That’s true of minimizing our risk of cancer, as well. Cancer is not just a matter of bad luck.

As you will discover when you are older, because a dress is expensive does not guarantee it’s the prettiest or it will look great on you.

Dear Abby: Friday, April 22, is Earth Day. Recycling is so important to our planet’s irreplaceable resources. Can you please remind your readers how long it takes items to break down in a landfill? – Scott In Texas Dear Scott: Items such as glass bottles and jars, plastic containers, aluminum cans, disposable diapers and plastic foam cups can take from hundreds to thousands of years – or more – to decompose. Cigarette butts can take up to 10 years. I encourage interested readers to go online, see the figures and learn what they can do to reduce, reuse or recycle.

Earth Day offers a chance for all of us to do something positive for the planet. Many parents use it as an opportunity to bond with their children, and some schools offer credit to students who participate. Helping children understand how the garbage they produce affects their environment is important, so please, readers, do what you can.

What do I say to people who give me unsolicited parenting advice or scold my daughter in public? I never would interfere with another parent or direct a child who isn’t in my care. What gives these people the right to barge into someone else’s life?

I have been chastised for letting my daughter sit on the floor while waiting in a long line, letting her be more than 4 feet away from me in the aisles and allowing her to speak loudly.

She’s 3. I don’t hire a sitter for running errands and I can’t leave her in the car.

It’s hard enough wrangling an energetic kid while trying to shop, do banking or send mail without constantly being pestered by strangers.

Do you have any thoughts on this? – Mom In

100 Year Old Estate Sale!

All Must Go! A Lot & A Little of Everything!

LAKEMOOR

Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy, a German-American social philosopher and historian who died in 1973, said, “Logic protects us against what we say having a double meaning.”

The game of bridge is built on logic. For example, in today’s auction, what does East’s double of three notrump logically mean?

Yes, it must be a penalty double.

But is there anything else?

It asks West to lead the first suit bid by the dummy; here, a spade.

East’s double is speculative, but reasonable. He doesn’t expect the opponents to make an overtrick, and it might need a spade lead to defeat the contract. Which spade should West lead?

South responded with one-notrump forcing, then invited game with two no-trump.

This is one of the situations when the highest spade should be led -here, the nine. To start with the two risks allowing declarer to duck the trick to East and leave him unable to continue the suit profitably.

In this deal from a social game, South can survive if he wins the first trick, but he must read the cards accurately. If he ducks the first trick, which is not so silly, thinking that West might have only two spades, the contract can be defeated. West leads a second spade. Declarer will probably win with dummy’s ace, cross to hand with a club, take two diamond finesses, lead a diamond to the ace, and exit with a heart. East wins, cashes his second high heart, then endplays the dummy with either black suit; say, clubs. The defenders take three spades and two hearts.

PR erases Gators’ big lead to earn FVC crossover win

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Prairie Ridge center fielder Luke Annen paid close attention to the charts detailing at-bats in the first two innings against Crystal Lake South.

As the Wolves came to bat in the third, Annen noticed South’s Andrew Engelking had attacked him inside.

So, when Annen came up for the third time, with the bases loaded, he was looking inside.

“It was a great pitch, actually,” Annen said.

But it happened to be what Annen was expecting, and he did not miss.

Annen ripped a shot over the fence in left-center field for a grand slam that rallied the Wolves from an early sixrun deficit to an 8-7 victory Monday in their Fox Valley Conference crossover baseball game.

“I’ve never really done that before,” said Annen, who remembered his last grand slam coming at age 12. “I was running as hard as I could, I wanted to get as many bases as I could. Through-

out that inning our dugout had a lot of energy. When you have great energy, great things happen.”

Wolves left fielder Robin Kim, who later knocked in two of their last three runs, did not think Annen’s ball was high enough to clear the fence.

“It was such a line drive,” Kim said.

“I just went nuts. Everyone was going crazy. We knew we were right in the game, it was our game to win at that point.”

Prairie Ridge (13-5 overall, 4-1 FVC Fox Division) has won eight of its past nine games, none of which was as unlikely as this one. The Gators (11-1, 3-1 FVC Valley) hit Prairie Ridge starter Ethan Routzahn hard in the first inning and put up six runs, three of which were unearned.

Nick Van Witzenburg ripped an RBI double and Nick Wolski had a two-RBI double in the first. Routzahn kept the Gators from scoring for the next two innings before Ryan Schmit and Scott Nygren got the game to Annen to close the seventh.

Kim knocked in a run in the fourth, then drove in another with a single off a 0-2 pitch with two outs in the fifth.

“I was just trying to be short and quick to the ball, not trying to do too much,” said Kim, whose hit gave the Wolves their first lead of the game.

HAMPSHIRE – Hampshire outfielder Michael Kruse digs into the batter’s box, torquing his body like a loaded spring. The bat’s barrel tears through the strike zone. He connects with the bottom of the baseball, sending it soaring over the backstop and deep into the wooded area behind the Whip-Purs’ baseball diamond.

“Lewis and Clark!” Hampshire baseball coach John Sarna hollers from the third-base coach’s box. “Get on that.”

Reserve catcher Matthew Widmayer and outfielder Jake Trevino spring into action. The juniors bounce out of the dugout and disappear into the wooded area along the first-base line.

Their predecessors – the real Meriwether Lewis and William Clark – set out from St. Louis in 1804 to navigate the uncharted land to the west. The explorers endured harsh conditions on their way to the Pacific Ocean and returned from the landmark journey with information about 300 previously unknown animal species, plant life and almost 50 Native American tribes.

While Hampshire’s Lewis and Clark never will be commemorated on stamps or in history text books, the baseball explorers are no less committed to their expedition. Their mission: Find lost baseballs.

Somewhere deep in the woods, dead leaves crunch under their feet. Birds chirp. The wind howls. After about two outs, they emerge with Widmayer carrying a dirt-stained baseball in his hand.

I ask to meet the adventurers. Juniors Widmayer, Trevino and Zachary Downing introduce themselves.

So, who is Lewis and who is Clark?

“I tend to be Lewis,” Widmayer said.

“I’m usually Clark,” Trevino said.

I guess that makes Downing…

“Sacagawea,” Downing said.

Sarna started joking with the bench players who have to track down foul balls 20 years ago, calling them Lewis and Clark. The tradition has stuck during his time with Jacobs, St. Charles North and Rolling Meadows.

It’s just one of the jokes the coach tells. When the bench is quiet during the game, he asks whether they are yelling in braille. When they aren’t listening in practice, he asks whether he has to send a telegram.

“He’s just full of clever things,” Widmayer said.

SPORTS | Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

‘Lewis and Clark’ on another mission

3

In Sarna’s first year at Hampshire five years ago, Lewis and Clark set out in search of one extreme foul ball and came back with a surprise discovery.

About a football field from home plate, they found 22 headstones from the Aurand cemetery.

The graveyard was established in the 1850s. Some of the area’s first settlers were buried there, including several Widmayers and Civil War veterans Levi Ream and Philip Munch.

However, the cemetery was abandoned over time. The town of Hampshire cleaned it up in 1976, and the baseball team discovered it for themselves years later.

What else is out there? Only Lewis and Clark can find out.

Before long, another foul ball flies out of play. Lewis and Clark head back out on another exploration.

Good luck, brave adventurers.

Skorija, who threw 46 of her 60 pitches for strikes, allowed only three hits and retired 11 straight batters after allowing a leadoff single to Trojans shortstop Alyssa Gurgone to begin the game.

The sophomore allowed one run, which was unearned, after an error on a fly ball in right field cut the Trojans’ deficit to two in the fourth.

“I just really focused on hitting my spots, and before the game, I worked a lot on my breaking pitches,” Skorija said. “The defense was great and made some great plays, gave me a lot of confidence in the circle.”

The Gators (3-5, 1-4 FVC Valley) jumped ahead 3-0 early after Toniolo pushed a solo home run just over the wall in left field. She added an RBI single in the sixth to extend the lead

to 4-1.

Skorija was able to rely on her defenders to do the rest. Her infield got quite the workout, fielding all 13 ground balls induced by the Gators pitcher without an error.

“It feels good to make the routine plays,” said Gators third baseman Emily Sulikowski, who was playing her third varsity game. “We get through the innings faster and get back to hitting.”

For the Trojans (3-7, 2-3), Gurgone, Anna Whitaker and Colleen Kaveney each went 1 for 3 on singles. Emma Hill pitched five innings of relief, giving up one run on six hits with three strikeouts.

“We weren’t short on our swings, so it got away from us,” Trojans coach Tammy Olson said. “We rolled, so that’s why they got the groundballs.

So, we gotta go up there and do a better job hitting for sure. We need to be less aggressive and be on our legs better.”

Inside Baseball

Proud Sponsor of Athlete of the Week soaring along with a deep pitching staff and solid lineup. They beat Prairie Ridge, Hampshire and Grayslake North in Fox Valley Conference games, then beat Schaumburg in a nonconference game.

2. Crystal Lake South (11-0): The Gators were the area’s last unbeaten team entering Monday’s game against Prairie Ridge.

South won five games last week and allowed six runs in the last four of those victories.

3. Prairie Ridge (12-5): The Wolves had won seven of their past eight before facing South on Monday. Their pitching staff is one of the area’s best, and the bats have livened up in the past few games, giving them a nice leg up in the FVC Fox Division.

4. Huntley (9-5): Saturday’s 4-2 loss at Prairie Ridge ended a four-game winning streak for the Red Raiders. They already have equaled last season’s win total.

NOTEWORTHY Dennison’s choices: Jacobs senior first baseman-pitcher Casey Dennison has played an integral role in the Golden Eagles’ hot start both as a hitter and on the mound.

Dennison is hitting .333 with a team-high 11 RBIs and has a 2-0 pitching record with an ERA of 0.88.

Dennison (6-foot-2, 205 pounds) also was a two-year starting linebacker in football and had considered colleges where he might play both sports. His top two were NCAA Division III schools Augustana and, fittingly, Dennison (Ohio).

“They’re pretty expensive, so I’ll probably end up going to Iowa for accounting,” Dennison said.

The right-hander has struck out 17 batters in 16 innings, with one walk and a WHIP of 0.813.

Improved Raiders: Prairie Ridge coach Glen Pecoraro considered his team fortunate to come away with a 4-2 victory against

Huntley on Saturday. Pecoraro said that game could have gone either way after his team rallied for two runs in the sixth inning to win.

Pecoraro was impressed with the improvement of Huntley, which was 9-27 last season and is currently 9-5.

“That team’s going to win a lot of games,” Pecoraro said. “They pitch it, they play defense and they have a heck of a coaching staff. You know how much I respect guys like Andy Jakubowski, who has been around here for years.”

Year 2 of the John Fox era got kick-started Monday morning at Halas Hall with the start of the Bears’ 2016 offseason training program.

The Bears are in Phase 1, which will last two weeks of the nine-week program. Activities are limited to strength and conditioning and physical rehabilitation only, per the collective bargaining agreement. There are no football activities, except for quarterbacks, who can throw to uncovered receivers. Players cannot wear helmets during Phase 1.

There are no big question marks about whether a player will report to Halas Hall. Last year, Martellus Bennett didn’t report until the mandatory veterans minicamp in June, and Matt Forte missed the early voluntary workouts in April.

Alshon Jeffery signed his franchise tag in February, setting him up to participate in the offseason training program as he and the Bears continue to work toward a long-term deal.

On the offensive side of the ball, all eyes will be on Kevin White, who is at 100 percent for the first time since before his original calf injury last year.

The Bears will remain cautious as they bring along last year’s No. 7 pick to get him ready for the season. This is also an opportunity for new players on the offensive line – Bobby Massie, Ted Larsen and Manny Ramirez – to get acclimated.

8 CUBS 5, CARDINALS 0

Lackey looks at home in St. Louis Pitcher fans 11, drives in run in Cubs’ victory

By R.B. FALLSTROM The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS – John Lackey had a little extra something in the tank for his old team.

The 37-year-old right-hander struck out 11 in seven innings of four-hit ball and delivered an RBI single, leading the Cubs over the St. Louis Cardinals, 5-0, Monday night.

“I’ve been known to be able to focus a little bit, I guess,” Lackey said. “I kind of like this sort of situation.”

“You could tell he was amped up,” Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said.

Jason Heyward, playing at Busch Stadium for the first time since leaving to sign with the Cubs, was 0 for 4 at the plate, made two nice catches in right field and was booed throughout.

“Oh yeah, you hear it. It’s fun, it’s cool, whatever,” Heyward said. “They don’t boo too often, so it must be somebody important or somebody doing something worth booing.”

Cubs starter John Lackey pitches during the third inning against the Cardinals on Monday in St. Louis. Lackey struck out 11 in seven innings, and the Cubs won, 5-0.

Dexter Fowler homered for the second time in three days for the Cubs, who are a major league-best 10-3 and off to their best start since 1970. The Cubs have won 15 of their past 16 regular-season road games, going 6-1 this year.

Fowler homered in the sixth, and rookie shortstop Aledmys Diaz misplayed a potential double-play grounder in the Cubs’ three-run seventh, throwing the ball wildly for an error as a run scored. Addison Russell had a

sacrifice fly, and Lackey, who entered with a .111 career batting average, singled for a 4-0 lead and his seventh RBI in 129 career at-bats.

He has a hit and an RBI in his past two starts. But it was the pitching numbers that really mattered.

“We talked about it before the game, the focus he was going to have,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. “He had his sharpness tonight.”

Matheny wasn’t too hard on Diaz,

who doubled and is batting .400 in 35 at-bats.

“Young player, it happens,” Matheny said. “We do also see a trend of him getting better the more he gets out there.”

Lackey has a 12-4 record at 11-yearold Busch Stadium after entering with a 2.03 ERA at the park, his best among stadiums with four or more starts.

“I feel like it’s by far the best place to pitch in the division, as far as size and not giving up homers,” Lackey said.

Mike Leake (0-2) allowed four runs – three earned – and six hits in seven innings in his home debut for St. Louis. At the plate, he botched a squeeze bunt in the fifth, although Kolten Wong scrambled back to third safely to Lackey’s ire.

“It was a tough pitch to try to get down. I guess I’ll try to practice a little more,” said Leake, one of the game’s best hitting pitchers. He entered with a .210 career average.

Lackey (3-0) struck out cleanup hitter Brandon Moss three times, and fanned leadoff man Matt Carpenter and No. 5 hitter Stephen Piscotty twice each. The 11 strikeouts, one shy of his career high, was his 20th double-digit strikeout game.

Lackey was 13-10 with a career-best 2.77 ERA with St. Louis last year, taking over as ace after Adam Wainwright tore his left Achilles tendon in April.

Heyward hears it from Cardinals fans in return

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

ST. LOUIS – Cubs right fielder Jason Heyward has a strong opinion about – if not a message for – all those Cardinals fans booing him Monday night in his return to Busch Stadium.

“People are going to do what they want to do. Everybody is entitled to their opinion,” said Heyward, who turned down a 10-year, $200 million deal from the Cardinals to take the Cubs’ eightyear, $184 million free agent offer last winter.

“If somebody boos me here, that means they were not happy to see me leave. So I kind of like that people weren’t happy to see me leave something. That’s a good thing.”

Sort of. Judging by Twitter comments to some of those remarks and the relentlessness of the vitriol Monday night, it seemed to have more to do with some of the perceived shots Heyward took at his

one-time Cards teammates on the way to Chicago.

“You’ve got to look at age; you’ve got to look at how fast the team’s changing and how soon those changes may come about,” he said during his introductory news conference in December after signing.

“I feel you’ve got Yadi Jason Heyward [Molina] who’s going to be done in two years maybe; you’ve got Matt Holliday who’s probably going to be done soon. There’s already been moves with Jon Jay gone and Tony Cruz. [Adam] Wainwright is probably going to be done in three or four years. I think that’s when his contract is up.

“I felt if I were to look up in three years and see a completely different team, that would kind of be difficult for me.”

Cards manager Mike Matheny and players subsequently bristled publicly at

the comments.

Heyward, who robbed Old Man Holliday of a hit with a sliding catch in the first inning, said the words were taken out of context and he didn’t mean to say the Cards were old as much as contract statuses would come into play.

“We’re still friends,” said Heyward, who spoke glowingly Monday of his season in St. Louis. “Everybody’s still cool. There was nobody that supported me more than those guys when it came down to me having to make a decision.

“The only disappointing thing about the whole situation is a lot of things got taken out of context. And that’s OK. I know me. They know me. People that know me know that I’m not ever going to take a hit at anybody or ever try to disrespect the game. I’m not bigger than the game. That’s not me.”

Note: The Cubs’ Kyle Schwarber, who tore two ligaments in his knee during an outfielder collision April 7, is to have surgery this week.

White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon, looks at the scoreboard during the first inning Monday against the Angels.

Frazier knows the pitching staff has more than carried its share of the load and that it’s time the hitters responded in kind. Acquired to bat

fourth and provide protection for Jose Abreu, he knows he’s a key component.

“If it didn’t bother me, I’d basically be lying to you because it does,” Frazier said. “It bothers me a lot.

It’s something you never want to go through in any profession. [Ventura] is probably right – maybe a little too much not thinking about the long run and just understanding my swing. I haven’t struck out four times in a long time. It happens.

“But you’ve got to figure out a way to get through that, and we’ve been working with the coaches.”

Said Ventura: “I talk to him every day. He’s fine. He’s not somebody I worry about.”

Eaton is setting the table at the top of the order, but nobody is cleaning up.

Abreu and Avisail Garcia (.171) have five RBI, Frazier six and Lawrie three. The pitching staff led the American League with a 2.49 ERA, and the bullpen (1.61) had the best mark in the AL. Jake Petricka, forced into action in the first, allowed a run over 2 2/3 innings, and Zach Putnam followed with three scoreless innings.

WHITE SOX NOTES

LaRoche to discuss decision to leave baseball on “Good Morning America”

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

CHICAGO – Adam LaRoche went away, but his retirement story doesn’t.

The former White Sox designated hitter who abruptly retired during spring training will appear on “Good Morning America” Tuesday along with his 14-yearold son, Drake, to discuss why he walked away from the Sox with a year remaining on his contract.

LaRoche was asked by team vice president Ken Williams to reduce the amount of time his son was spending in the clubhouse. He opted instead to retire.

LaRoche will be interviewed by ABC news anchor and correspondent T.J. Holmes, “talking family and his decision to leave baseball,” according to the show.

“It wasn’t just about his son ... or the $13 million. You’ll hear him explain it himself,’’ Holmes tweeted Monday.

LaRoche released a statement after he retired. The only time he was heard from since then was in an ESPN The Magazine interview published last week.

“I am choosing my son over you guys,” LaRoche told the magazine of what he

said to teammates.

LaRoche also revealed to the magazine that he went on an undercover rescue mission to fight sex slavery in southeast Asia last November.

Energy

One of the early storylines for the 2016 White Sox is the new clubhouse vibe, the result of new veterans and new energy.

Brett Lawrie, 26, is the energy guy, and while watching him in the dugout and on the field can appear to be over the top at times, it works for manager Robin Ventura because Lawrie has been good in the field at second base and went into Monday’s game against the Angels at U.S. Cellular Field batting .304.

“You understand when there’s a live wire in there and it’s a positive’’ Ventura said. “He’s like that but you also have to be able to play. If he couldn’t play, he’d be a pain in the ass in a lot of ways. But he can play and they respect the way he plays and shows up and does stuff.

“That’s just as important as being a little crazy and energetic and all that.

He can play, and that’s what validates him.’’

Veteran moves

The Sox are into shifting infielders more than ever, but veterans such as Todd Frazier at third, 37-year-old Jimmy Rollins at short and even Lawrie at second have enough experience to take a step over, in or back depending on the situation, ensuing pitch, or hitter.

“Maybe they’ve played against somebody, or get a feel for something and they can take a step that we don’t necessarily see from the dugout,’’ Ventura said. “They can make adjustments on the fly. That’s as important as knowing all the information … and they’re not afraid to try.’’

On this day

The Sox opened U.S. Cellular Field 25 years ago Monday, on April 18, 1991. They lost to the Detroit Tigers 16-0.

Monday was the nine-year anniversary of a Cell highlight, Mark Buehrle’s no-hitter against the Texas Rangers in 2007. Buehrle, who became one of the most popular players in Sox history, walked one, struck out eight and faced the minimum 27. Buehrle retired the first 13 batters before walking Sammy Sosa with one out in the fifth, then picked Sosa off first.

CHICAGO – Todd Frazier was in a relaxed mood before the White Sox opened a seven-game homestand at U.S. Cellular Field.

But he knew it was time for the Sox’s offense to get serious.

“We know what we’re capable of, and we really haven’t been showing it even though we’re [8-5],” Frazier said.

“We’ve been winning games close, but it’s about that time. There’s no more excuses, it’s time to deliver – [8-5] is great, but we can definitely do better bats-wise.’’

If they can, it wasn’t demonstrated against former Sox lefty Hector Santiago, who had 10 strikeouts and held the Sox to two hits in seven innings in the Angels’ 7-0 victory. The Sox have scored three, three, one, two, two and zero runs in their past six games and have lost three in a row after an 8-2 start.

Pitching carried the Sox out of the gate, but Carlos Rodon got peppered for five runs in the first inning and left before getting the second out. After a single by Yunel Escobar and oneout walks by Mike Trout and Albert

Pujols to load the bases, the Angels had five consecutive singles, forcing manager Robin Ventura to yank the lefty, who came into the game with a 1.38 ERA over his first two starts and 10 consecutive quality starts featuring a 1.73 ERA during that span dating to last season.

It was the shortest non-injury-related start by a Sox pitcher since Neal Cotts failed to finish the first in August 2003 at Yankee Stadium.

Frazier struck out four times in the Sox’ 3-2 loss Sunday against the Rays, the third time in his career he has fanned that many times in a game.

He’s 4 for 28 in his last eight games, and his average has dropped to .154.

Leadoff man Adam Eaton is hitting .347, Melky Cabrera is at .304 and Brett Lawrie is hitting .286. But below them, the highest average in the starting lineup against Santiago was Jimmy Rollins’ .231.

“Yeah, we’ll get going,” Frazier said. “Just one of those stretches.

We’d rather have it earlier than later in the year. Everybody is upbeat. I’m upbeat. First 50 at-bats, you can just wash them out the door. Nothing you can really do now. Just attack it and go about your business.”

120TH BOSTON MARATHON

Historic sweep for Ethiopians

Hayle, Baysa, capture men’s women’s titles

By JIMMY GOLEN

The Associated Press BOSTON – The Ethiopians ran past the Kenyans on their way to the Boston Marathon finish line Monday and nearly swept them off the victory podium.

Lemi Berhanu Hayle won the 120th edition of the men’s race, and Atsede Baysa Atsede Baysa overcame a 37-second deficit on the women’s side for Ethiopia’s first sweep of the world’s most prestigious marathon.

Hayle finished in 2 hours, 12 minutes, 45 seconds to beat defending champion Lelisa Desisa by 47 seconds.

Yemane Tsegay was an additional 30 seconds back to round out an all-Ethiopian top three.

“In sports, sometimes that happens.

But not always,” said Desisa, who also won the 2013 race. “It is the performance on the day.”

Kenya had dominated the Boston Marathon since the professional era began in 1986, winning the men’s race

Lemi Berhanu Hayle of Ethiopia wins the 120th Boston Marathon on Monday.

14 straight times from 1991 to 2004 and 20 out of 22 before Desisa earned the first of his two victories three years ago.

But the Kenyans have been beset with doping problems. The World Anti-Doping Agency put the country’s athletics program on probation after

more than 40 athletes tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs since the 2012 Olympics, including three-time Boston winner Rita Jeptoo.

Instead, it was its East African neighbor that had its anthem played over Copley Square – twice. Ethiopia claimed its sixth title in the men’s race

– including three of the past four – to go with six more in the distaff division.

Hayle (HAY-lee) pulled away from Desisa as they crossed over the Massachusetts Turnpike heading into Kenmore Square. He tapped his chest as he ran down Boylston Street, held his arms out to bask in the cheers of the crowd and then, after crossing the finish line, did a celebratory skip-jump.

Baysa trailed by 37 seconds at the 35-kilometer checkpoint before chasing down Tirfi Tsegaye on Beacon Street in Brookline, two miles from the finish line. The two-time Chicago Marathon champion won by 44 seconds in 2:29:19.

Joyce Chepkirui was third – the lone Kenyan to medal.

Most of the top Americans, including 2014 winner Meb Keflezighi, skipped the race after running in the U.S. Olympic trials in February. Other countries pick their Olympic teams by committee, and the performances in Boston could help Monday’s top finishers earn a ticket to Rio de Janeiro.

“This is a major marathon,” Baysa said through an interpreter. “We don’t know what they are thinking, but we are confident they will select me.”

Zachary Hine of Dallas was the top U.S. man, finishing 10th. Neely Spence Gracey of Superior, Colorado, was the first American woman to finish, coming in ninth.

Gracey was born into marathoning: Her father was the No. 2 American in Boston in 1989; the next year she was born on race day while he was running.

Marathon bombing movies filmed during race

By PHILIP MARCELO The Associated Press

BOSTON – With the real-life Boston Marathon underway Monday, Hollywood film crews took to the marathon finish line and Fenway Park to shoot scenes for competing movies about the deadly 2013 marathon attacks.

Actor and Boston native Mark Wahlberg donned a Boston police uniform while filming for “Patriot’s Day,” a re-telling of the April 15, 2013, attacks that’s expected to open as early as December.

The 44-year-old Wahlberg was filmed standing along with other officers on the marathon course as part of the security detail during the race.

He plays a fictional police officer named Tommy Saunders, who is a composite of law enforcement officials who

The mov-

ie is based on a firsthand account from former Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis.

Jake Gyllenhaal, meanwhile, was at Fenway Park on Monday morning shooting scenes for “Stronger,” a film slated for release sometime in 2017 and based on bombing survivor Jeff Bauman’s memoir of the same name.

Bauman was a spectator who lost both his legs in the attack that killed three people and injured hundreds more. From his hospital bed, the Chelmsford, Massachusetts, native helped police identify brothers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev as the attackers.

The 35-year-old actor and Bauman also threw out the first pitch as the Boston Red Sox took on the Toronto Blue Jays.

The film crews have been shooting

scenes throughout Massachusetts in recent months. Gyllenhaal and Bauman were at a Boston Bruins game shooting scenes at TD Garden this month.

Wahlberg’s production has been rebuffed at a few key locations, however, as some victims’ families and survivors have voiced concerns the movies are being made too soon after the attacks.

The University of Massachusetts turned down a request for crews to shoot scenes at its Dartmouth campus. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who was sentenced to death last year for the attack, had been a student at the time and returned to his college dorm afterward.

And the town of Watertown also denied the filmmakers’ request to re-create the scene where Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed in a fiery shootout with police.

WHAT TO WATCH

SPORTS BRIEFS

Appeals court upholds $1B NFL concussion settlement

PHILADELPHIA – A federal appeals court has upheld an estimated $1 billion plan by the NFL to settle thousands of concussion lawsuits filed by former players, potentially ending a troubled chapter in league history.

The decision released Monday comes nearly a year after a district judge approved the revised settlement. If there are no further appeals, former players already diagnosed with brain injuries linked to repeated concussions could begin receiving benefits within three to four months, a plaintiffs’ attorney said.

“I couldn’t stress enough the urgency of getting this done,” said attorney Christopher Seeger. He conceded the settlement was hardly perfect, but two courts had now judged it fair.

Lawyer Steven F. Molo, who argued for several former players opposed to the deal, said his clients were disappointed and considering their options.

In a statement, an NFL spokesman called the appeals court decisions “a significant step in implementing the clubs’ commitment to provide compensation to retired players who are experiencing cognitive or neurological issues.”

The settlement would cover more than 20,000 NFL retirees for the next 65 years.

The league estimates that 6,000 former players, or nearly three in 10, could develop Alzheimer’s disease or moderate dementia.

Spurs’ Leonard repeats as NBA Defensive Player of the Year

SAN ANTONIO – Kawhi Leonard tends to shrug off all the accolades for his defensive prowess. He will almost always credit his teammates and coach for any praise he receives.

It was no different Monday as Leonard won his second straight NBA Defensive Player of the Year award after helping the San Antonio Spurs have the league’s best defense.

“I just hide behind [my teammates] in the game, really,” Leonard said. “They give me the confidence to pressure my man and get into the ball handler. The bigs are there on the help side if the guy goes by me and I’m able to switch to other offensive players and all the other guards on my team to guard the best offensive player.”

Leonard beat out Draymond Green in voting Monday to become the first noncenter to win the award in consecutive seasons since Dennis Rodman in 1989-90 and 1990-91.

The 6-foot-7 Leonard received 84 firstplace votes and 547 points from a panel of 130 sports writers and broadcasters throughout the U.S. and Canada. Green, the All-Star forward for Golden State, was runner-up for the second straight year with 44 first-place votes and 421 points. Miami center Hassan Whiteside was third with 83 points and two first-place votes.

12 STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS: BLACKHAWKS VS. BLUES (BLUES LEAD SERIES, 2-1)

Pressure on Hawks, but they can handle it

By MARK POTASH

mpotash@suntimes.com Even with the series lead and homeice advantage, Blues coach Ken Hitchcock understands there are no defining moments in the early stages of a series against the Blackhawks. No messages sent. No calling cards left.

“We just know right now that this series is so even, it’s really early. It’s three games,” Hitchcock said. “I know for some people it feels like five or six.

But it’s three games.”

Even Hitchcock might not fully grasp how much more push-back his team will get as the first-round series enters the Hawks’ wheelhouse in Game 4 on Tuesday at the United Center.

All the pressure is on the defending Stanley Cup champion Hawks, who are coming off a home loss in Game 3 and want to avoid a 3-1 deficit and an elimination game Thursday at Scottrade Center in St. Louis.

But they can handle it, buoyed by their daunting record of picking up steam late in a series. The Hawks are 43-14 (.754) in Games 4-7 of the playoffs in coach Joel Quenneville’s seven seasons – 26-6 (.813) in the last three sea-

Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville looks down as he watches his team against St. Louis during the third period in Game 3 on Sunday at the United Center

sons, including 15-1 (.938) at home.

No wonder Hitchcock isn’t willing to settle for the excellent hockey his team has played so far.

“We have to be better. We have to get better every game,” Hitchcock said.

“Each game has gotten more and more intense, and the animosity and the anger’s gotten to a very high level now.

“I don’t know what they’re going to do. I don’t know what they’re capable

of. Their history says they can go to this level that nobody else can play at.

We’re probably going to have to find that out.”

The Hawks are used to showing vulnerability early in a playoff series.

They were down 2-1 to the Ducks in the Western Conference final last season before rallying to win in seven games.

They were down 2-1 to the Lightning in the Stanley Cup Final before winning three consecutive games to clinch their third title in six seasons. In fact, the Hawks are under .500 (31-32) in the first three games of a playoff series under Quenneville.

They know they will need to reach another level to pull off the same feat against the Blues, who look more ready to win than they did in 2014. They have outstanding goaltending, impressive balance on offense and defense and the same old gumption they once depended on, only now it complements their improved skill level.

“In order to beat a really good team, you’ve got to be great,” Quenneville said. “We still feel we have another level to get to that greatness, or be as good as we can be.

“We’ve got to feel we can catch that feeling, and knowing our guys, find different ways to be the best they can.

Whether they bring it out of the other guys, new guys – but they always seem to find something. We’re fortunate.”

Bringing it out of the new guys could be the challenge that proves to be the Hawks’ undoing. Of the 22 players who have participated in this series, eight never have won the Cup and 12 have won once. The diminishing core of three-time winners (Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, Duncan Keith, Marian Hossa, Brent Seabrook and Niklas Hjalmarsson) and two-time winners (Corey Crawford, Andrew Shaw, Marcus Kruger and Michal Rozsival) has a bigger leadership role. But it has worked before.

“It’s definitely something that you can sense in the room that they’ve been through it, that they have that confidence about them and they definitely lead by example,” said rookie defenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk, who played in four playoff games last year, all in the Final. “If you just watch them, they’ll definitely lead you in a very good direction.”

STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS ROUNDUP

Ovechkin leads Caps past Flyers

By The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA – Alex Ovechkin scored twice, Braden Holtby had 31 saves and the Washington Capitals moved one game closer to a sweep in their first-round playoff series with a 6-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers and their disgruntled fans Monday night.

The Capitals lead a series 3-0 for the first time in franchise history. Game 4 is Wednesday night in Philadelphia.

Ovechkin snapped a tie game with his 38th postseason goal, and Holtby made the lead stand with his third straight sensational effort in the series. The Capitals scored five power-play goals, including four in the third period.

The Flyers lost in their first home game since founder Ed Snider’s death last week. Michael Raffl scored 57 seconds into the game and sent a crowd already rocking after an emotional pregame tribute into a frenzy.

The fans turned in the third period, throwing wristbands used as part of a pregame lights show onto the ice and

earning a delay of game penalty. Flyers public address announcer Lou Nolan urged fans to “show some class,” and then added “way to go” when the fans earned the penalty.

WILD 5, STARS 3: At St. Paul, Minnesota, Jason Pominville had two goals and an assist, and Minnesota roared back from an early two-goal deficit to slice Dallas’ lead in the Western Conference quarterfinals to 2-1.

Chris Porter put the Wild on the board in the final minute of the first period, their first even-strength goal of the series. Erik Haula added a goal and an assist, Mikko Koivu scored on a power play in the third period and the Wild stopped a seven-game losing streak that started March 31.

Patrick Sharp scored 26 seconds into the game and again less than 4 minutes later for the Stars, but the Wild controlled the action after that and finished with a 25-17 shots-on-goal advantage.

Game 4 is Wednesday night in Minnesota, and Game 5 will be Friday night back in Dallas.
