JUDGE WEIGHS LANTZ RULING

GRIZZLY RECOVERY JOB ENDS

A special assistant state’s attorney told a McHenry County judge Thursday that the misconduct charges against former McHenry County Coroner Marlene Lantz should be dismissed because the prosecution failed to state the offense of the charges and committed prosecutorial misconduct before the grand jury. Lantz, 68, was indicted last year on charges of official misconduct and forgery after she allegedly failed to properly dispose of or bury two fetuses that police said were kept in the coroner’s office.

The nation’s first and only grizzly bear recovery coordinator is stepping down after 35 years, saying the threatened species has recovered enough for him to retire.

Chris Servheen of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is retiring at the end of April. Wayne Kasworm will become acting recovery coordinator.

Servheen, 65, said he considers bear populations in Yellowstone National Park and the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem to be recovered.

But when he began his work in 1981 the challenges seemed insurmountable.

“I didn’t think at all that we would get to recovery,” Servheen told the Bozeman Daily Chronicle. “In fact, I really wondered if we would even have grizzly bears around.”

CELEBRATING 150 YEARS Tree of Life Unitarian Universalist Congregation reflects on journey

By KATIE DAHLSTROM kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com McHENRY – When the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Woodstock found itself at yet another new beginning four years ago, the unfurling of a quilt made its path forward a little more clear.

The congregation moved from a building it had occupied for more than a century into a former restaurant in McHenry. On top of uprooting itself, the congregation had a new religious leader, the Rev. Sean Parker Dennison.

Faced with the need to reinvent their congregation, members first turned to the name, which no longer reflected the church’s identity. Should the new name include McHenry to indicate where the new church sits, Dennison remembers some members asking.

“You don’t need to tell them about where you are,” Dennison recalled telling members. “You need to tell them

about what you are.”

Members had batted around the name Tree of Life, but it wasn’t until member Judy Ayres brought in a quilt depicting the widely used symbol that features a flaming chalice glowing inside a tree that members knew it was the right choice.

The church adopted the name Tree of Life Unitarian Universalist Congregation and the motto “rooted in love, reaching for justice” in May 2013.

That quilt, along with many other artifacts from the congregation’s storied past, will be on display Saturday and Sunday as Tree of Life celebrates its 150th anniversary. Donations made at the event will go toward the restoration of nine stained-glass windows made for the centennial of the church in its former location.

Change has been a constant thread for the roughly 135 members, congregation

Illinois elections board IDs McHenry County 2016 primary vote problems

By ALLISON GOODRICH agoodrich@shawmedia.com The issues that plagued the March 15 primary in McHenry County might have led to some eligible voters not casting their ballots, according to the Illinois State Board of Elections’ report.

The report was requested by state Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, who was not alone in demanding answers after an Election Day many felt was full of problems. McSweeney, who provided the memo to the Northwest Herald on Thursday after receiving it from the state board of elections, said the report was disconcerting.

“It was an absolute fiasco,” McSweeney said after receiving the report. “I’m concerned, and I think there should be changes so that never happens again. ...

That’s the most basic American right – to vote.”

One of the main problems highlighted was related to the electronic poll books, the memo said. The review found one or more of the memory sticks used to install

More online The full report can be seen online at NWHerald.com.

McHenry County’s voter database had a defective file. Those defects were not uncovered before the poll books were sent to the polling places, causing delays throughout the day.

Communication also hindered the process, the report states, with callers getting automatic recordings when trying to reach election judges or the general public hotline. The phone problems in McHenry County were aggravated by the fact that poll book troubles required the attention of those who would otherwise be available to aid callers, the state election officials found.

While the accuracy of the vote totals apparently was not called into question, state officials did state the problems might have resulted in some voters not casting their ballots.

As for the future of elections in McHenry County, County Clerk Mary McClellan said she’s been working toward solutions.

Efforts are underway to raise the limitation of calls coming into the county administrative buildings – the limit currently is 75 calls at once – to more than 150, McClellan said, who added that she was unaware of the limitation until after the election.

“We’re also going to set up call centers,” she said, explaining that one would be dedicated to election judges and the other to the general public.

Both, she added, would be staffed with 20 people.

A new system also has been implemented to ensure that her own staff test each poll book before they’re sent to polling places, as opposed to relying on the vendor, as was done this year, McClellan said.

“The two main issues, I think, we’ve identified, and to both of those we have a solution so that this will never happen again,” she said.

Rep. Jack Franks’ property tax relief bill passes Illinois House NORTHWEST HERALD

Property tax relief for Illinois homeowners who live in non-home rule communities is a step closer to reality.

State Rep. Jack Franks’ bill to freeze property taxes in non-home rule communities passed the Illinois House on Thursday by a veto-proof vote of 71-31. Five House members voted “present,” and 11 did not vote.

The bill now goes to the state Senate, where Franks, D-Marengo, gives it a “50-50” chance of passage.

“This is as far as we’ve ever got-

ten,” Franks said.

The legislation, if signed into law by Gov. Bruce Rauner, reverses the effect on the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law, or PTELL, State Rep. which allows taxing Jack Franks, districts in non-home D-Marengo rule communities to receive an inflationary increase in property taxes, plus an additional amount for new construction.

“This legislation stops the PTELL automatic increases every year. It

takes it away,” Franks said. “The system is broken. It means government doesn’t have to be efficient. When our citizens have less, our government gets more. And that’s not fair.”

Franks cited the $41 million surplus at McHenry County’s Valley Hi Nursing Home as an example of the broken property tax system. He also cited high property taxes as the main reason so many individuals and families are leaving Illinois for other states.

“I think it’s the biggest issue in McHenry County, because property taxes are so high,” he said.

Cary man fired gun into ground as scare tactic, police say

CARY – A 27-year-old Cary man faces a misdemeanor charge after police said he fired three bullets into the ground to scare a man who had been outside his home late Wednesday.

Trevor Justen called police to his home in the 0 to 100 block of Hickory Lane because he was alarmed by a man who had been stumbling around the neighborhood, Deputy Chief James Fillmore said. But by the time police arrived, the man was gone, Fillmore said.

When the man came back a short time later, about 11:50 p.m., Justen Trevor went outside armed Justen with a handgun and fired three rounds into the ground to scare the man away, Fillmore said. No one was injured in the shooting, police said. “(It’s) just poor judgment,” Fillmore said. “You should probably just step back inside your house and call the police.”

Fillmore said there is no relationship between Justen and the man, who police have had contact with before but would not identify.

Justen was taken to the Cary police station, where police said he was charged with attempted reckless discharge of a firearm, a Class A misdemeanor. He posted $150 bond and was released, police said.

By JORDYN REILAND jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A McHenry County judge denied the state’s motion to require a Lake in the Hills woman accused of selling drugs to provide the passcode to her cellphone.

Michelle M. Hall, 20, was arrested April 14 on multiple charges of delivery and possession of a controlled sub- Michelle stance after police said M. Hall they found that more than 2 grams of heroin was bought from Hall at her residence in the 400 block of Starwood Pass.

Her most serious charge, unlawful delivery of a controlled substance within 1,000 feet of a park, is a Class

X felony that could result in six to 30 years in prison.

McHenry County Judge James S. Cowlin said the state’s attorney’s office could not compel Hall to provide the passcode to her phone verbally because it was a violation of her Fifth Amendment right to remain silent.

Frank J. Hall and Megan B. Boettcher also were arrested after a search warrant was issued and a search was conducted by the Crystal Lake Police Department and the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Task Force. The two were charged with unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia and unlawful possession of marijuana, police said.

Hall remains in custody on $200,000 bond in the McHenry County Correctional Facility and will reappear in court May 3.

Unitarian Universalist Church is seen at 1309 N. Court St. in McHenry.

Continued from page A3 President Judy Stettner said.

But so has tenacity, she said.

“A lot of things happen in 150 years. There are things going on in the world at large, then you have the politics of the church, the change of ministers,” Stettner said. “I think it takes a little bit of tenacity and farsightedness on the part of the congregants to keep something going.”

Although initially formed in late 1865, the church first gathered in 1866 as the First Congregational Church of Woodstock with an assemblage of recently returned Civil War veterans and community leaders. A clapboard church was erected at Dean and South streets. The church would be razed and replaced by a modern brick church in 1906.

Over the next century, the congregation went through several changes. Dozens of ministers came and went, the

members of a dissolved unitarian church joined, and the congregation changed its name a handful of times.

“There’s always been a few stalwart people saying, ‘No, we must exist,’ ” Dennison said.

Meanwhile, the congregation focused on being a progressive leader in cultural and civic affairs. The first female minister came in 1975, a husband-and-wife team followed in 1985, and the congregation made headlines for becoming one of the first churches to be a rotating PADS homeless

The 1990s brought renovations to the aging church.

Police were called about 3 p.m. Thursday for a reported crash at Randall and Algonquin roads, according to scanner reports.

A 21-year-old DeKalb man and his 1-year-old son were taken to Advocate Sherman Hospital in Elgin for injuries not considered life-threatening, Algonquin Police Sgt. James Sowizrol said.

Zado’s 2006 Chrysler 300 was going north on Randall Road and attempted to turn west on Algonquin Road, police said, adding that witnesses said the light was yellow. His vehicle was struck by a 2002 Ford Mustang, which was driven by the DeKalb man, Sowizrol said.

Both vehicles were significantly damaged and had to be towed from the scene.

The Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District also responded to the crash.

church for about 20 years, the tight-knit and dedicated membership is what has kept her engaged.

“I like the fact that everyone is accepted there, and I like the fact that it is sort of a small family and community where you know everyone,” Tirk said.

Members now are focused on incorporating the arts into their church life. They also have spearheaded “Compassion for Campers,” a project that involves members bringing lunch to the area’s homeless population during the summer.

What’s next for the church, lay people and religious leaders say they aren’t sure. But they’re ready.

“When you know you have endured – you’ve been tenacious – for 150 years, you can start to think no matter what happens in 150 years, we’ll still be here,” Dennison said.

WOODSTOCK – A McHenry County judge will decide whether to dismiss official misconduct charges against former McHenry County Coroner Marlene Lantz.

Lantz, 68, of McHenry, was indicted last year on charges of official misconduct and forgery after she allegedly failed to properly dispose of or bury two fetuses that police said were kept in the coroner’s office. According to the indictment, from March 1992 until Lantz left the office in November 2012, police said she failed to dispose of the bodies of “Baby Doe” and “Baby An- Marlene Lantz gel Harris,” a 22-week-old male.

Special Assistant State’s Attorney James Harrison argued in court Thursday before Judge Robert A. Wilbrandt, based on his previously filed motion, that the official misconduct charges against Lantz should be dismissed because the prosecution failed to state the offense of the charges and committed prosecutorial misconduct before the grand jury.

Harrison argued that it is the parents’ duty to dispose of the body, not the coroner’s, according to

Illinois law. Harrison said if Lantz had disposed of the remains, then the state would have a basis for legitimate official misconduct charges because it is the parents’ responsibility to do so.

Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs said the law mandates that the coroner must either release the remains of children to their parents or, in the event that the parents do not claim the remains, bury the bodies.

“As a matter of public policy and/or the health and safety of the community, the county coroner cannot horde the corpses of dead infants in a storage cooler,” Combs said in his response.

Harrison also argued that prosecutors failed to disclose information about the parents’ duties to dispose of the deceased to the grand jury.

Combs said the grand jury was not misled by prosecutors when instructed because in order to support the defense’s claim, actual and substantial prejudice must be shown, which is something he does not believe happened.

Combs also said the coroner is responsible for releasing the body to the decedent’s next of kin. Harrison argued that if the grand jury were presented with that statute, he doesn’t believe an indictment would have been issued.

Wilbrandt will issue a decision May 5 on Harrison’s request.

LOCAL BRIEF

2 drivers cited after 3-car crash on Algonquin Road

By KATIE DAHLSTROM kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com

ALGONQUIN – Police cited two drivers after a crash Thursday on Algonquin Road that they said landed a pickup truck on top of a Mercedes sedan.

Kevin Zirbes, 59, of Winfield was driving a 2003 Ford F-150 west on Algonquin Road when he tried to turn left into the Joe Caputo and Sons’ parking lot and was struck by a 1994 Mercedes C280 being driven by Luis Flores, a 30-year-old Huntley man, Algonquin police Sgt. Andrew Doles said.

The collision sent the pickup truck into the 2015 Ford Transit driven by a 29-year-old Crystal Lake man waiting to turn left onto Algonquin Road, Doles said.

When police arrived shortly after 7:45 a.m., they found the pickup truck off the ground on top of the car that had struck it.

“The truck was pinched between the Mercedes and the Transit,” Doles

Airbags deployed in all three vehicles, and no one was injured, Doles said.

The drivers, as well as a passenger in the Transit, were wearing their seat belts. Doles said drugs and alcohol were not factors in the crash.

Police charged Flores with driving on a suspended license, a Class A misdemeanor, and the petty offense of driving without insurance.

Zirbes was cited for failure to yield while turning left and driving without insurance, Doles said.

All three vehicles were towed from the crash with heavy damage.

Observers don’t help dying Chicago man The ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO – Surveillance video shows more than a dozen people doing nothing to help a Chicago bartender as he is attacked, left unconscious on the street and accidentally run over by a taxi.

Marques Gaines, 32, later died at a hospital. His family has filed a wrongful death and negligence lawsuit against several businesses and taxi companies in his Feb. 7 death.

The video shows Gaines leaving a

convenience store and chatting with other people outside before getting into a confrontation with a man wearing a hooded jacket. That man shoves Gaines. The video then shows someone punch Gaines, who falls to the ground unconscious.

Several people are then seen approaching Gaines. The Chicago Tribune reported that Gaines’ family said his cellphone and debit card were stolen. Chicago police said they cannot confirm Gaines was robbed.

The video shows the people who

approached Gaines walking away as he lies on the ground. Several other people ignore Gaines as they walk by.

Then, a taxi turning onto the street where Gaines is lying runs over his body.

“I’ve never heard of anything like this where people just walk by a person lying in the street and nobody helps,” Gaines’ aunt Phyllis Nelson, who raised him after his parents died, said at a news conference Thursday. “I just don’t understand it.”

ILLINOIS ROUNDUP

News from across the state

Legislation would encourage reporting sex assault

CHICAGO – A group of Illinois prosecutors and advocates said new legislation would encourage more victims of sexual assault to report the crime to authorities.

A Senate committee advanced the measure to the full Senate on Wednesday.

It would require police and 911 call centers to adopt policies for responding to sexual assaults that are more sensitive toward victims.

Law enforcement officers also would be required to complete a written report of every complaint, regardless of where it occurred or who is reporting it.

The measure was drafted in response to studies that suggest only 5 percent to 20 percent of rapes are reported to law enforcement. Attorney General Lisa Madigan said the legislation will help “ensure that justice is being served.”

Emanuel: Changes coming for Chicago police cases

CHICAGO – Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced changes in the way police-involved shootings and police misconduct cases are handled on Thursday, but drew immediate criticism for stopping short of abolishing the agency that handles those investigations as a task force has urged him to do.

A new position of public safety auditor will be created, the mayor’s office said in a news release, and there would be a “role for citizen oversight in police misconduct cases. The release didn’t outline any specifics.

The changes stem from last week’s report from the mayor-created police accountability task force, which harshly criticized the nation’s third largest police force for decades of mistreatment of minorities and a code of silence that protects brutal officers. One of the most dramatic recommendations was to abolish the “badly broken” Independent Police Review Authority – or IPRA – with a new, fully transparent Civilian Police Investigative Agency.

The mayor didn’t rule out abolishing IPRA

and his family’s attorneys pressed for more police action to find the man. Chicago police said Thursday that detectives are investigating and waiting for results from evidence to be returned.

Police said the cab driver was not cited at the scene. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office said the cause of Gaines’ death is pending the police investigation.

Relatives said they hope highlighting the case will draw the attention of eyewitnesses who will help identify the attacker.

last week or Thursday, but he also has not foretold the future of an agency that critics say has allowed abusive officers to escape discipline and has become a major reason why many in the community do not trust the police force.

It’s disappointing to critics who have watched Emanuel scramble to regain the trust of the city – and some on the police force – since November, when a judge ordered the release of a video Emanuel fought to keep sealed that showed a white officer shooting and killing black teenager Laquan McDonald 16 times.

“We were hoping for more courage here,” Marshall Hatch, a prominent minister on the city’s West Side, told The Associated Press in an email. “Between IPRA and the (department’s) Bureau of Internal Affairs, investigations of police misconduct still is an internal affair” – not transparent as the mayor has promised.

Suburban man sentenced to 52 years in wife’s murder

WHEATON – A suburban Chicago man who pleaded guilty to killing his wife and wounding her son in 2013 has been sentenced to 52 years in prison.

Kurtis Worley of Addison was sentenced Wednesday in DuPage County Circuit Court for the stabbing death of Martha Worley. The 35-year-old Worley slashed his 15-year-old stepson’s throat after the boy and his 12-year-old brother heard their mother scream and tried to intervene.

Before Worley’s sentencing, prosecutors played a portion of the younger boy’s 911 call. He can be heard yelling, “He’s killing my mom! Please hurry!”

Worley told Judge Liam Brennan that he was drinking heavily to numb the pain from seeing his wife with another man.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks during a campaign event Wednesday at Stephen Decatur High School in Berlin, Md.

Trump presses GOP leaders to embrace him as nominee

By STEVE PEOPLES and THOMAS BEAUMONT The Associated Press HOLLYWOOD, Fla. – Donald Trump’s chief lieutenants pushed skeptical Republican leaders Thursday to embrace him as their likely presidential nominee, declaring he can deliver big electoral gains this fall despite his contentious ways.

Even as his team pressed Trump’s case, the billionaire raised fresh concern among some conservatives by speaking against North Carolina’s “bathroom law,” which directs transgender people to use the bathroom that matches the sex on their birth certificates. Trump also came out against the government’s plan to replace President Andrew Jackson with the civil-rights figure Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill.

The developments came as the GOP’s messy fight for the White House spilled into a seaside resort in south Florida. While candidates in both parties fanned out across the country before important primary contests in the Northeast, Hollywood’s Diplomat Resort & Spa was transformed into a palm-treed political battleground.

There were new signs of frustration among members of the Republican National Committee, who are eager for the divisive primary season to end.

“I want to see Mr. Trump begin to bring us together,” said Henry Barbour, a committeeman from Mississippi. “And I haven’t seen it.

It’s not good enough to do it for 30 minutes one day and then the other hours of the day try to

divide.”

On one side in the long-running battle, Ted Cruz’s team warned party elders in private briefings that only the Texas senator could expand the GOP and heal deepening intraparty divisions. On the other, Trump’s revamped inner circle quietly courted RNC members who openly questioned the front-runner’s tone and party loyalty.

“People have expressed concerns about that,” said Paul Manafort, tapped by Trump earlier in the month to lead the remainder of his primary election strategy. “We hear them.”

“We’re here letting people know that know we’re starting to pivot toward the inevitability of the nomination,” Manafort told The Associated Press. “We want to start opening doors and building relationships because we are committed to running a traditional united party.”

There was evidence of a rift on the Democratic side as well.

Prominent Southern Democrats urged Bernie Sanders to stop dismissing Hillary Clinton’s landslide primary wins across the South, where the front-runner’s popularity among non-whites has helped fuel her success.

Sanders said the results in the South “distort reality” because they came from the country’s “most conservative region.”

Don Fowler of South Carolina, a former chairman of the Democratic National Committee, and other Clinton supporters told Sanders in a letter that “our national Democratic leaders” should “invest in our races and causes – to amplify our voices, not diminish them.”

Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II meets well-wishers during a walkabout to celebrate her 90th birthday Thursday in Windsor, England.

Tributes flood in for Queen Elizabeth on 90th birthday

By MARTIN BENEDYK and JILL LAWLESS The Associated Press WINDSOR, England – Fate unexpectedly made her queen. Duty and endurance have made her an institution and an icon.

Queen Elizabeth II turned 90 on Thursday as Britain’s oldest and longest-reigning monarch, drawing crowds of well-wishers and floods of tributes to the stamina and service of a woman who can claim to have given her name to the age.

Britain is living, Prime Minister David Cameron said, in the “modern Elizabethan Era.” The queen usually spends her birthday privately, with most of the pomp and ceremony reserved for an official birthday that’s marked in June. But Thursday’s milestone brought an outpouring of public goodwill.

Thousands of fans greeted the queen on a tightly choreographed walkabout near her Windsor Castle home, while elsewhere her government and subjects held gun salutes, fireworks and speeches in Parliament, and televised retrospectives offered scenes from a royal life that has stretched from the Roaring Twenties to the Internet age.

“Her Majesty has been steadfast – a rock of strength for our nation, for our Commonwealth and on many occasions for the whole world,” Cameron said as he led tributes in the House of Commons.

He praised the monarch’s “unshakable sense of duty,” pointing out that she had provided counsel to 12 British prime ministers and met a quarter of all the U.S. presidents since Independence Day.

Her record is all the more remarkable because she was not born to be queen. When Princess Elizabeth was born on April 21, 1926, her father was a younger son of the king and not expected to reign. His older brother took the throne in 1936 as Edward VIII – but abdicated the same year to marry his divorced American lover, Wallis Simpson.

Elizabeth’s father became King George VI and, at age 10, she became heir to the throne. When she was 21 – almost five years before she became queen – she promised the people of Britain and the Commonwealth that “my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service.”

She kept the promise, and it has struck a chord with people in Britain and around the world.

“She’s such an icon and a real role model for the children of today. And I think everybody should respect her for all the years that she’s given for her country,” said Donna Werner, an American tourist from New Fairfield, Connecticut, who came to greet the queen in Windsor, just west of London.

Thousands lined the streets of the town carrying cakes, cards, balloons and Union Jack flags. The band of the Coldstream Guards played “Happy Birthday,” and royal fans snapped cellphone photos as the queen, clad in pale green, greeted local dignitaries, townspeople and tourists.

By her side was 94-year-old Prince Philip, her husband of 69 years, with whom she has four children, eight grandchildren and five great-grandchildren

WASHINGTON – It’s not just Wall Street banks. Most companies and groups that paid Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to speak between 2013 and 2015 have lobbied federal agencies in recent years, and more than one-third are government contractors, an Associated Press review has found. Their interests are sprawling and would follow Clinton to the White House should she win election this fall.

The AP’s review of federal records, regulatory filings and correspondence showed that almost all the 82 corporations, trade associations and other groups that paid for or sponsored Clinton’s speeches have actively sought to sway the government – lobbying, bidding for contracts, commenting on federal policy and in some cases contacting State Department officials or Clinton herself during her tenure as secretary of state.

Presidents are not generally bound by many of the ethics and conflict-of-interest regulations that apply to non-elected executive branch officials, although they are subject to laws covering related conduct, such as bribery and illegal gratuities.

Clinton’s 94 paid appearances over two years on the speech circuit leave her open to scrutiny over decisions she would make in the White House or influence that may affect the interests of her speech sponsors.

Rival presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders and Republican critics have mocked Clinton over

her closed-door talks to banks and investment firms, saying she is too closely aligned to Wall Street to curb its abuses. Sanders said in a speech in New York that Clinton earned an average of about $225,000 for each speech and goaded her for declining to release transcripts.

“If somebody gets paid $225,000 for a speech, it must be an unbelievably extraordinary speech,” Sanders said at an outdoor rally at Washington Square Park last week in advance of the New York primary. “I kind of think if that $225,000 speech was so extraordinary, she should release the transcripts and share it with all of us.”

Clinton said again Thursday she will release transcripts of her paid speeches to private groups or companies when other political candidates do the same. She compared such disclosures to the long-standing practice of politicians being expected to release their income tax returns, which she did far earlier and more thoroughly than Sanders in the campaign.

“Now there’s a new request to release transcripts of speeches that have been given,” Clinton said during a town hall. “When everybody agrees to do that, I will as well because I think it’s important we all abide by the same standards. So, let’s do the tax return standard first because that’s been around for a really long time.”

Clinton has said she can be trusted to spurn her donors on critical issues, noting that President Barack Obama was tough on Wall Street despite his prolific fundraising there.

Mexicans seek news of loved ones after deadly explosion

WASHINGTON – After two straight years of ties, the Scripps National Spelling Bee is adding more sting: The championship rounds will last longer, and the words will be harder.

The bee, now televised in prime time by ESPN, has exploded in popularity over the past two decades. And the spellers have gotten increasingly savvy. So instead of sticking to a list of 25 “championship words” selected weeks earlier, the final rounds could have as many as 75 words.

And the organizers can choose harder words on the fly if the spellers don’t appear to be struggling.

Before 2014, the system worked well enough. There hadn’t been a tie in more than 50 years. And the tie two years ago was a bit of a fluke: Both spellers got one of the championship words wrong, but because they misspelled back-to-back, the bee continued.

Current and former spellers applauded the changes, saying the hardest words should be last. On occasion, championship words have left veteran spellers underwhelmed.

Scripps spelling bee to get harder words to avoid ties

COATZACOALCOS, Mexico – Desperate relatives gathered outside a petrochemical plant Thursday hoping for news about loved ones still unaccounted for a day after an explosion killed at least 13 workers. Officials said 18 workers had been reported missing.

About 30 families massed at a plant entrance road, where a sharp chemical smell still hung in the air about a mile from where the blast occurred Wednesday afternoon.

Many wore facemasks to ward off the pungent odor.

Shoving broke out as people unsuccessfully tried to force their way into the installation in Coatzacoalcos on Mexico’s southern Gulf coast. Some shouted at marines and soldiers who were called in to guard the facility, and they threw rocks at a white government SUV when it arrived at the scene.

State oil company Petroleos Mexicanos, or Pemex, said 136 workers were injured. Twenty-four remained hospitalized.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia – President Barack Obama strained to ease tensions with Persian Gulf allies Thursday, pledging U.S. help in confronting Iran and other security threats. Yet he failed to win the commitments he sought to boost economic aid to Iraq.

Obama’s trip to Saudi Arabia – the fourth and probably last of his presidency – did not result in any major breakthroughs. Obama said Gulf leaders attending the regional summit had agreed to step up the campaign against the Islamic State group, but did not lay out specifics. He described the talks as a chance to clear up misperceptions among allies, insisting the U.S. and Gulf partners had “tactical differences” but similar goals.

“A lot of the strain was always overblown,” Obama said as he closed a twoday trip here.

Saudi Arabia, like other Sunni-led countries in the region, has been wary of Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran and skeptical of his approach in Syria.

Obama came to the Gulf Cooperation

Council meeting not only to urge its members to do more to tackle thorny security challenges but also to offer his own reassurance.

His brief visit, however, illustrated the limits of what can be achieved when Gulf budgets are stretched by a slump in oil prices and the region is eagerly looking beyond Obama to his successor. Obama leaves office in January after eight years that Saudi leaders saw as heralding a shift in traditional U.S. loyalties away from Saudi Arabia and toward Iran.

Obama, in meetings with Saudi King Salman – the ruling emirs of Qatar and Kuwait and others – appealed for more financial and political support to help Iraq. Yet the leaders appeared reluctant to invest until Iraq’s government overcomes a political crisis and better integrates Sunnis into the process.

In a shift in tone from just a day earlier, Obama said the U.S. and its Gulf partners should wait to see whether Iraq can resolve the crisis before committing more aid. He warned that the paralysis is impeding U.S.-led efforts to defeat the Islamic State group and reconstruct war-damaged Iraq.

Celebrate Earth year-round Today marks the 46th Earth Day, a movement that was started in hopes of motivating people to action to save the planet. But even in 1970, its principles weren’t new. Though environmental issues raise political hackles in some circles, preservation and conservation run deep in America’s DNA. It doesn’t mean For the record everyone needs to move into See inside today’s newspaper 180-square-foot tiny for the 2016 McHenry County houses run on solar Recycling Directory Green power, though that Guide. idea appeals to some.

It means leaving the Earth better than we found it, and passing on that simple mantra to the next generation.

It’s an effort that takes more than a single day to accomplish. It’s a lifestyle worth adopting year-round. So this Earth Day, take a moment to decide which small changes you can make to help the Earth.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (www.epa.gov) offers a few tips: • Change five lightbulbs. Replacing your five most frequently used lightbulbs with Energy Star qualified products will save you about $70 a year on energy bills. They generate 75 percent less heat and uses about 75 percent less energy than standard lighting.

• Carpool when possible to reduce energy consumption.

• Rely on reusable goods, such as food and beverage containers and shopping bags.

• Recycle, and buy recycled products.

• Donate your old clothing to charity.

• Limit food waste and start a compost pile for what is thrown out. Most people don’t realize how much food they throw away – more than 35 million tons in 2013 – and about 95 percent ends up in landfills or combustion facilities.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Cheaper cable starts with better box Like a lot of Americans, President Barack Obama thinks cable TV costs too much. Unlike a lot of Americans, he is in a position to do something about it – and even if he fails, it’s still worth the effort.

Last Friday, Obama took the unusual step of announcing his support for a proposal from the Federal Communications Commission intended to make it easier for customers to purchase their own set-top cable boxes.

Whether the idea would actually save consumers money remains to be seen, but it could help bring more competition, improved technology and greater choice.

Currently, about 99 percent of cable-TV subscribers rent their set-top boxes from their local providers. The average household pays more than $200 a year, generating as much as $20 billion in revenue for the companies (the cable industry disputes these numbers). The FCC’s past attempts to open up the cable-box

market have failed – in large part because cable providers did their best to make buying third-party boxes a hassle. This time, though, the government has powerful new allies: Google and other tech players with just as much muscle and money as the cable giants.

What they’re after isn’t so much sales revenue as information. They want all that data on subscriber habits and interests, which they could then use to sell personalized ad space on video channel guides and the like.

The cable industry is trying to persuade viewers that this plan is a threat to their privacy, but for all anyone knows, the cable companies may already be doing the same thing.

The FCC wants not just more competition, but a world in which consumers need only one box and a single remote control to explore all the information coming through their cable wires. This seems unlikely. More plausible is

a future in which all these competing services, along with new app-based technologies, combine to give viewers an (even more) dizzying array of choices, from all-you-can-surf packages to more narrow, interest-based collections of channels.

Some technical but important details will need ironing out. The proposal would create a commission devoted to standardizing data flows for all devices, as well as protecting content creators’ copyrights and viewers’ personal data. There will be time to work these things out. The public comment period is about to end for the proposal, which will almost certainly face a legal challenge from the cable industry. By the time the plan is ready, in a year or two, both traditional set-top makers and newer tech rivals will surely have refined the technology to take better advantage of the unshackled market.

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.

– Bloomberg View

VIEWS Albert Hunt are preferable to national edicts. That means that state decisions should mean more than national vote totals. Perhaps as a party newcomer, Trump doesn’t appreciate that point of view.

It’s easy to see why Trump could be unhappy. Even with his big win on Tuesday in his home state, it’s still a slog to get to the 1,237 delegates necessary for the nomination at the party’s Cleveland convention.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz remains a formidable challenger despite his weak finish in New York, and the ultimate outcome won’t be decided at least until the final contests on June 7, which include California. More likely, the battle will continue at the convention. Ohio Gov. John Kasich lags far behind.

But nobody’s a victim of unfair rules. Trump lost to Cruz in places like Colorado and Wyoming because the Cruz campaign outsmarted and outworked his side.

State rules have helped Trump in some places. On March 15, for example, he beat Cruz by less than two-tenths of

a percentage point in Missouri but won 71 percent of the delegates. Winnertake-all contests in Florida and Arizona delivered bonanzas to Trump as well.

Sanders’s complaints about superdelegates are just as ill considered.

About 15 percent of the 4,766 Democratic delegates are governors, senators, congressional representatives or top party officials. They are not bound by state or district vote. Sanders portrays them as representatives of an elite establishment free to ignore the wishes of their voters.

There are two fallacies here. The first is that Clinton lags among voters.

She doesn’t. She’s won many more votes than Sanders. The other is the notion that superdelegates reflexively line up with the leading establishment candidate. Eight years ago, Clinton was the establishment contender. Then Illinois Sen. Barack Obama convinced politicians he would be a stronger candidate by scoring early electoral victories, and many superdelegates backed him – including, privately, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-California.

Superdelegates want someone who can win and presumably govern effectively. Their consensus represents peer review, input from the men and women best able to gauge political competence.

It was the turbulent Democratic election of 1968 that set the stage for this. When President Lyndon Johnson bowed out, Sens. Robert F. Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy won most of the primaries. But Kennedy was assassinated and the convention, dominated by party bosses, tapped Vice President Hubert Humphrey.

Liberal activists, outraged, shook up the rules by scheduling more primaries to empower voters and reduce the clout of party leaders. After awhile, realizing the value of some peer review, Democrats arrived at the current mix; the number of super delegates this time is about a quarter less than in 2008.

The political parties are weaker today. But that has less to do with the nominating process and more with the influx of big money in the system enabled by flawed Supreme Court decisions.

There are deficiencies on both sides but nothing is crooked or rigged.

Trump has been opposed by the majority of Republican voters and does miserably in general-election polls.

Any outcome on either side is likely to be in sync with most voters.

– Albert Hunt is a Bloomberg columnist.

For Donald Trump, two outrage-free weeks Have you noticed something different about the Trump campaign? It’s been more than two weeks since the last really outrageous thing the Republican front-runner has said or done.

It’s not an accident. When it comes to outrageousness, Donald Trump has dialed it back, on purpose. And indications from Trump world are that the new pattern will continue.

Why the change? Ask people knowledgeable about the campaign, and they’ll say the addition of new staff has had a quick effect. Pushed by his children, Trump has expanded his super-tight circle of advisers with the addition of Paul Manafort, and now others, too. The sense is that Trump actually can listen, both to advice on what to say and not to say. The message has evolved; he is a better candidate than the man who messed up right and left just a few weeks ago.

With his latest crusade against “voterless victory,” Trump is scoring points again, not so much against Ted Cruz directly, but against the Republican establishment. For Trump, Cruz’s vulnerability is not that he is part of the establishment, but that he has gotten in bed with the establishment as the only way to win. So the belief is that

VIEWS Byron York Trump’s fight against the Republican National Committee and insider campaign rules pays off everywhere – especially if Trump is not making critical unforced errors at the same time.

To see the changes in the Trump campaign, look at the four-week period between March 22, when Trump began to blow up his own campaign, and now.

On the night of March 22, Trump saw a low-budget, anti-Trump Super PAC ad featuring a photo of his wife. He went straight to Twitter. “Lyin’ Ted Cruz just used a picture of Melania from a G.Q. shoot in his ad,” Trump tweeted.

“Be careful, Lyin’ Ted, or I will spill the beans on your wife!”

Not content to stop there, Trump made things infinitely worse the next night, when he retweeted a meme from one of his followers that featured a glamour shot of Mrs. Trump next to an unflattering photo of Mrs. Cruz.

It’s a simple rule of politics that you don’t attack your opponent’s wife – or husband, for that matter, unless his

name is Bill Clinton. Trump had trampled all over the rule, and the blowback was intense. In the days before the April 5 Wisconsin primary, Trump’s rivals – not just the Cruz campaign but Wisconsin’s formidable conservative talk-radio lineup – used it over and over against Trump.

But Trump was about to make things even worse. During a March 30 interview with MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, Trump said that, were abortion to be banned, there should be “some form of punishment” for women who have abortions. Angering both pro-lifers and pro-choicers, Trump then issued multiple clarifications of his position. The controversy dragged on for days.

Add to that Trump’s attack on Gov. Scott Walker, and the Trump campaign was done in Wisconsin; Cruz beat Trump 48 percent to 35 percent.

And then something changed. On March 29, as things were falling apart in Wisconsin, Trump announced the hiring of Manafort, the veteran Republican operative. Manafort ostensibly joined to serve as Trump’s convention manager, but his role quickly expanded, in part at the expense of campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, who at

the time was facing possible criminal prosecution for a March 8 incident in which he grabbed a female reporter’s arm after a press conference in Florida.

It took Manafort a few days to get up to speed. But since his arrival, Trump has been remarkably outrage-free. He’s still giving the same basic performance in his rallies, but he has been a little more discriminating in his press appearances – two straight weeks without appearing on a Sunday chat show – and has stayed away from doing obviously dumb things, like attacking his opponent’s wife. The campaign hopes the bad period is over.

Now the question is whether Trump has the discipline to stay on a relatively error-free course. He had some very good luck when the GOP primary schedule took him from his disastrous performance in Wisconsin to his best state of all, New York, and then to other friendly northeastern states. But Trump will need more than luck to suppress the impulses that have gotten him into trouble in the past. He’ll need to be a better candidate.

Now that Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have scored their comfortable victories in the New York primary, can everybody please stop bellyaching?

Neither party’s presidential selection system is perfect, as several candidates have been loudly proclaiming, but each has more virtues than shortcomings.

Trump and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders have complained that the rules are rigged against them. The billionaire is unhappy because his nomination isn’t inevitable even though he’s gotten far more votes than any Republican rival. The Vermont senator is cranky about superdelegates – more than 700 party and elected officials who will go to the Democrats’ Philadelphia convention in July without having been chosen in primaries or caucuses.

They’re free to back any candidate, and most of them favor the former secretary of State – a fact that Sanders sees as evidence that the establishment has stacked the deck against him.

Both charges are specious. For starters, nobody’s rules have changed since the candidates entered the fray.

On the Republican side, the delegate-selection process was designed by the states. It’s consistent with longstanding Republican ideology, which holds that state and local decisions

Walgreens to settle N.Y. attorney general investigation for $500,000 The ASSOCIATED PRESS Walgreens will pay $500,000 to settle the latest case of a company accused of duping New York consumers over prices.

The New York attorney general’s office said Thursday that an undercover investigation found instances cases where Walgreens used misleading advertising in its stores.

It also accused the nation’s largest drugstore chain of overcharging customers.

The state regulator said Walgreens charged different prices at the register for some products compared to figures that appeared in print ads or on store shelf tags. That included tags that remained up after the advertised price had expired.

Walgreens said it has been working with the attorney general’s office for several months and receiving feedback from customers, and that has helped it make improvements in how it communicates in its stores and with advertising.

Deerfield, Illinois-based Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. runs about 251 Walgreens and 214 Duane Reade stores across the state.

The attorney general’s office said that, in addition to the fine, the drugstore chain agreed to remove expired shelf tags within 36 hours and conduct

A customer enters a Walgreens on April 5 in New York. Walgreens will pay $500,000 to settle the latest case of a company accused of duping New York consumers over prices. The New York attorney general’s office said Thursday an undercover investigation found instances where Walgreens used misleading advertising in its stores. It also accused the nation’s largest drugstore chain of overcharging customers. price checks in its stores, among other things.

Late last year, the grocer Whole Foods said it would pay New York City $500,000 to settle allegations that it overcharged customers for prepackaged foods. The city had said last June

that an investigation tested 80 different types of prepackaged food at Whole Foods and found mislabeled weights on every one.

Walgreens shares fell 10 cents to $81.03 in midday trading while the Nasdaq exchange rose slightly.

NEW YORK – Sears Holdings Corp. announced Thursday it will close 68 Kmart stores and 10 Sears stores as it struggles to restore profitability. The Crystal Lake Sears store was not included in the list of those being closed.

The ailing company had said in February that it would accelerate the closing of unprofitable stores.

The move is expected to generate a “meaningful level” of cash from the liquidation of store inventories and from the sale or sublease of some of the related real estate, the company said.

The closings follow a comprehensive review of the company’s store portfolio that took into account store performance and the timing of lease expirations.

The Sears stores will close in late July; two Kmart stores will close in mid-September.

Sears has long been struggling with a sales slump, unable to keep up with rivals like Wal-Mart.

Prince performs in 1985 at the Forum in Inglewood, Calif.

Prince, among most inventive musicians of modern era, dies CHANHASSEN, Minn.– Prince, one of the most inventive and influential musicians of modern times with hits including “Little Red Corvette,” ‘’Let’s Go Crazy” and “When Doves Cry,” was found dead at his home on Thursday in suburban Minneapolis. He was 57.

His publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, told The Associated Press the superstar “died at his home this morning at Paisley Park.” The local sheriff said deputies found Prince unresponsive in an elevator late Thursday morning after being summoned to his home, but that first-responders couldn’t revive him.

No details about what may have caused his death have been released.

Prince postponed a concert April 7 in Atlanta after coming down with the flu, and he apologized to fans during a makeup concert last week.

President Barack Obama released a statement Thursday saying he and his wife “joined millions of fans from around the world” in mourning Prince’s sudden death.

“Few artists have influenced the sound and trajectory of popular music more distinctly, or touched quite so many people with their talent,” said Obama, for whom Prince was a White House guest last year.

The dazzlingly talented and charismatic singer, songwriter, arranger and instrumentalist drew upon musicians ranging from James Brown to Jimi Hendrix to the Beatles, creating a widely imitated blend of rock, funk and soul.

The Minneapolis native broke through in the late 1970s with the hits “Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?” and “I Wanna Be Your Lover,” and soared over the following decade with such albums as “1999” and “Purple Rain.”

The title song from “1999” includes one of the most quoted refrains of popular culture: “Tonight I’m gonna party like it’s 1999.”

Born Prince Rogers Nelson, he stood just 5 feet, 2 inches – yet made a powerful visual impact at the dawn of MTV.

JERUSALEM – The grandchildren of one of the earliest Jewish victims of the Nazis are laying claim to a jewel of Israel’s top museum: the world’s oldest illustrated Passover manuscript.

The descendants of a German Jewish lawmaker say the famed Birds’ Head Haggadah, a medieval copy of the text read around Jewish dinner tables on Passover, was stolen from their family during the Nazi era and sold without the family’s consent 70 years ago to the predecessor of the Israel Museum in Jerusalem – an act the family calls a “long-standing illegal and moral injustice.”

BUZZWORTHY Meghan Trainor bringing summer tour to Ill. State Fair

SPRINGFIELD – Meghan Trainor is bringing her summer tour to the Illinois State Fair.

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter will perform Aug. 13 on the grandstand.

Her 2014 hit “All About That Bass” launched the singer’s career. Trainor’s new album, “Thank You,” will be released May 13. The album’s hit single, “No,” has already peaked at No. 3 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.

Her summer “Untouchable Tour” will include another stop in Illinois, on Aug. 10, at the Rosemont Theatre outside Chicago.

Trainor told The Associated Press in an interview last month that her voice is “amazing” after surgery last year for a vocal cord hemorrhage.

She also said winning the Grammy for best new artist earlier this year was the best day of her life.

Solar plane successfully departs from Hawaii

KAPOLEI, Hawaii – Two pilots are slowly carving their way into a new future of solar-powered flight as one of them embarks on the latest leg of their around-the-world journey in a plane powered only by the sun.

After some uncertainty about the winds, the Solar Impulse team took off from Hawaii early Thursday. The aircraft landed in Hawaii last July but was forced to stay in the islands after the plane’s battery system sustained heat damage on its trip from Japan.

The Swiss-made Solar Impulse 2 is now on course to land in Mountain View, California, in about three days.

The aircraft started its journey in March 2015 from Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, then made stops in Oman, Myanmar, China and Japan. It’s on the ninth leg of its circumnavigation.

Pilot Bertrand Piccard, who is flying this leg of the trip, said the idea of crossing the ocean in a solar-powered plane stressed him out a few years ago, but Thursday morning he was confident all would go well.

New film imagines what occurred when Elvis met Nixon LOS ANGELES – At around 6:30 a.m. on Dec. 21, 1970, Elvis Presley delivered a hand-written note to a guard at the northwest gate of the White House requesting a meeting with President Richard Nixon. In the note scribbled on American Airlines stationary, Presley expressed concern for the state of the country and asked if he could help by becoming a Federal Agent at Large.

By 12:30 p.m., he was in the Oval Office, telling Nixon about his Tennessee youth, how the Beatles were anti-American and his decade long study of Communist brainwashing and drug culture.

It’s one of the more surreal moments in modern American history, probably best known for the photos of the two that came out of the meeting. While there are firsthand accounts of how it all transpired and what was said, a new film “Elvis & Nixon,” out Friday, imagines what happened on that strange day in between the margins.

Directed by Liza Johnson, the film stars Michael Shannon as Presley and Kevin Spacey as Nixon.

Genius: Italy’s toy libraries

Mom puts government-funded indoor playgrounds among country’s best accomplishments

By VICKY HALLETT The Washington Post The other morning, my baby announced she was awake by clapping her hands. As I picked her up out of her crib, I drowsily joined her in a round of applause. When I peeked out the window, I realized we indeed had an excellent reason to cheer. It was a gloomy scene, dominated by gray clouds and a constant drizzle. A quick check of my phone confirmed that, yep, the rain would be sticking around all day long.

In other words, it was absolutely perfect weather for our scheduled playground play date.

That’s because here in Florence – like all over Italy – you’re never far from an indoor playground. The concept is called a “ludoteca,” which translates into English as “toy library.” Like outdoor playgrounds, the city operates these free for families.

Florence has 10 scattered in various neighborhoods. Each one offers slightly different amenities and activities, but basically they’re places for kids younger than 11 or so to scamper around.

Since my family moved here six months ago, I’ve stood in front of (and in awe of) Michelangelo’s David, Botticelli’s Birth of Venus and Brunelleschi’s famed dome. So it’s weird to admit the sight that’s really left me speechless was my first look inside Gianburrasca, the ludoteca closest to where we’re living. It’s three rooms: One’s got books. One boasts a playhouse along with assorted goodies – blocks, fake produce, doll strollers, etc. Then there’s the no-shoes room packed with colorful mats and other squishy stuff.

I don’t know the name of the genius who deserves the credit for this masterpiece, but he or she should be celebrated in sculpture. Perhaps one made of Play-doh?

Soon after we arrived in Italy, I heard other moms speak of these “ludoteche” around town. I was skeptical. We’d spent quality time in several government buildings while acquiring all of our necessary legal documents, and they were some of my least favorite places on earth. Even the Italian consulate in Washington sticks visa seekers in a cheerless subterranean room without air conditioning.

Plus, toys require a fair amount of upkeep. And Italians tend to be sweet and welcoming – and a tad too easy-

During Carnevale season – which lasted well over a month – kids tossed confetti and streamers everywhere.

It made standing at the bus stop feel weirdly festive. But as the paper bits turned brown and muddy, I asked some other parents about who cleans all this up. They looked at me like I was crazy. (I guess that’s another reason to root for rain.)

So my expectations were not grandissimo when a friend and I decided to visit Gianburrasca. But we brought our pair of tykes inside, and immediately were greeted by a friendly woman who gave us the tour, registration paperwork and a set of printed guidelines. And because the kids were distracted by their discovery of a xylophone, we actually were able to read them.

Enrollment really is free. There’s no catch. Each child, however, must be accompanied by an adult.

(Grownups can be responsible for

up to four kids each.) To prevent the toys from resembling broken antiquities, folks are asked to treat items with care and put them back in their proper spots. If anything is damaged “intentionally,” it’s up to the kid – and caregiver – to replace it.

And with that, we played. We donned firefighter and construction worker hats, answered a plastic telephone, and built a, um, something out of interlocking cubes. Another infant and his mom showed up, and they seamlessly joined in on our fun. That’s another benefit of a ludoteca: There’s something intimate about being indoors I’ve never felt chit-chatting by the swing set.

After another hour of rolling on beanbags, flipping pages of books and staring at a group of older kids hiding out in a fort, we sat down at a squat table to pretend to drink a coffee. Did I mention this is Italy?

The fact that the ludoteca concept has taken hold here is maybe one of the most interesting things about it. It would make sense for indoor play-

grounds to be a thing in Iceland, or Canada, or somewhere else where just reading the forecast makes me want to seek out a fireplace. But here, they think it’s cold. They think this even when it’s 60 degrees and sunny out. At my daughter’s international day care center, there’s constant tension between the foreign and Italian parents.

The expats, particularly the Scandinavians, want their kids playing outside even when it’s slightly chilly. The locals pretty much consider that child abuse.

Over the past few months, I’ll admit, I’ve started to come around to the Italian point of view. How do you argue with the kid-raising know-how of a country where virtually every restaurant serves pizza, pasta and ice cream?

There’s definitely nowhere I’d rather be living with my daughter – especially on rainy days.

As a parent, I know the weight of my words gradually will decrease as friends, teachers, coaches and others begin to form relationships with my kids. And then I start talking like my mom and I’m reminded of the influence parents still have.

There is a lot of noise you need to talk over and drown out. Choose your words carefully and be sure to say what needs to be said because you’ll always have clout.

6. Get to know your kids – really know them. The questions you ask are always

more important than the answers you give. Spend more time listening than talking.

7. Don’t take too much advice to heart.

Know your strengths and play to them.

But mostly, be sure they know how much you care.

I used to teach high school Social Studies. In the beginning, I wasn’t very good. I was a nervous, conciliatory and assumed all my students would be mostly like me (rule-following nerds).

Luckily, the learning curve in teaching, like parenting, is steep. You can’t really know what teaching is like until you’re standing face-to-faces, all 25 of them staring at you for direction. Just like you really can’t know what it’s like to be a parent until you’re home alone with a new delicate life.

I grew into teaching the way some uncoordinated, gangly kids grow into basketball – not quite a natural, but with practice I got good.

I didn’t know it at the time, but my teaching career was preparing me for parenting more than any other career could have. Teaching, like parenting, is a career that almost anyone can benefit from, quietly imparting lessons nearly everyday. There is always something to learn and always room for improvement.

These lessons I learned from teaching help me most often as a parent.

pants were assigned at random to drink 5 ounces (two-thirds of a cup) of either red wine, white wine or mineral water each day. The drinks were provided for free, to encourage study participants to drink as they were assigned by the study to do.

After about two years, the red wine drinkers had higher HDL cholesterol (“good” cholesterol), lower ratios of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol and fewer markers of “metabolic syndrome” (a cluster of conditions that increase the risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes), compared with the mineral water drinkers.

Each of these changes has been linked to lower rates of heart disease. However, the study was too short to determine if heart disease rates actually were lowered.

Interestingly, the white wine drinkers had somewhat different beneficial effects.

Compared with the mineral water drinkers, the white wine drinkers had lower blood sugar levels, lower levels of triglyceride fats and less insulin resistance. Each of these changes, too, has been linked to lower rates of heart disease. But again, the study was too short to determine if heart disease rates were actually lowered.

To make a long story short, moderate drinkers have heart benefits, compared with non-drinkers or heavier drinkers.

Heavier drinking puts the heart (and other organs) at risk. It’s not clear red wine is superior to other alcoholic beverages.

Dear Dr. K: I’ve heard drinking red wine, or any alcoholic beverage, in moderation is “heart-healthy.” Is it true, and is red wine any healthier than other alcoholic beverages?

Dear Reader: There are many studies of the two questions you ask. As for the first question, most studies have found moderate drinkers are less likely to develop Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. That’s when moderate drinkers are compared either with non-drinkers or to heavy drinkers.

“Moderate drinkers” refers to men who have an average of one to two alcoholic drinks a day, and women who have an average of one drink a day. The difference between men and women is because women metabolize alcohol somewhat differently from men.

A study published in 2015 from Harvard Medical School and other institutions analyzed results from almost 15,000 people. The study lasted almost 25 years. No one had heart failure at the beginning of the study.

By the end of the study, however, some did.

But moderate drinkers were 20 percent less likely than non-drinkers or heavier drinkers to develop heart failure. This positive effect of moderate drinking was somewhat stronger in men than in women. The study looked primarily at heart failure, and not at other types of heart problems.

Now to your second question, about whether red wine is a more heart-healthy type of alcoholic drink than other alcoholic beverages. Here, I’d say the evidence is less clear. A study reported in late 2015 got a lot of attention in the media for showing red wine is heart-healthy. In fact, that study did not really compare red wine with all other types of alcoholic beverages.

The study involved more than 200 adults who were at high risk for heart disease because they had Type 2 diabetes. Partici-

do is give up and stop trying. Not knowing what you are doing on these first dates, I only can surmise while being “as open and honest with guys as possible,” you might be giving them so much negative information you’re scaring them off.

In a way, dating is like sales: It’s important to communicate positive information about the product you are selling (you) and downplay the negative (e.g. “I have trust issues because someone done me wrong.”). It also might be helpful to have an honest talk with some of your friends and ask them what you may be doing wrong.

In Stockton, California Dear Giving Up: The one thing you shouldn’t

Abby

husband, “Ed,” and I are in our 40s. We both work, and Ed often puts in more than 60 hours a week. My in-laws, in their 60s, are both in good health, retired and well-off financially. They expect weekly gatherings unless they have other plans.

In warmer weather, my mother-in-law guilt-trips Ed into performing weekly chores such as painting, gardening, window washing, etc. These take more than six hours on Sundays, in addition to dinner.

My in-laws also insist on yearly family vacations. Because of this we have little time alone with our teens or each other. I don’t think all these gatherings should be mandatory. Please help. This is hurting our marriage.

– Highly Stressed In Pennsylvania Dear Highly Stressed: During one of those mandatory family visits, you and your husband should tell his parents what you have told me. Unless you explain to them they have you on a schedule that doesn’t permit you to spend alone time with your children or each other, they won’t get it.

Family get-togethers are supposed to be pleasant for all, not mandatory. And if your in-laws can afford the expense, they should hire a handyman to help them and not impose on their son.

Dear Abby: I have been single for almost six years and have had no luck with the dating scene. Every time I go on a date, I perceive it as a date that went extremely well. But when I go to contact the guy the next day, I get no response in return.

I have major trust issues to begin with from past relationships, and it’s hard for me to let my guard down. Although I try to be as open and honest with the guys as possible, it just doesn’t work. I know the whole cliché of “the right one is out there somewhere,” but what can someone do when she just feels like giving up completely on dating? – Giving Up

Malcolm Forbes, who was an enthusiastic bridge player, said, “If you don’t know what to do with many of the papers piled on your desk, stick a dozen colleagues’ initials on ‘em, and pass them along. When in doubt, route.”

We have a dozen in bridge -- the number of tricks needed to make a small slam. It is easy to lose today’s contract under a pile of bad breaks.

How should South play in six spades after West leads the diamond three?

North’s four-club rebid was a splinter, showing spade support, at least game-going values and a singleton (or void) in clubs. When South control-bid his heart ace, North used Blackwood.

South made short work of going down. He won the first trick with his diamond 10 (the honor from the shorter side first), cashed his spade ace, and played a spade to dummy’s queen. When East discarded a diamond, South stopped in his tracks.

However, thinking was now too late; the contract could not be made. He tried to cash the diamond ace, but West ruffed and returned his last trump. Declarer had to lose a heart or a club at the end.

West’s lead was surely a singleton.

So, East had to be kept off lead. Also, in case there was a bad spade split, South should have played a club to dummy’s ace, then run the spade nine. West would have won and led a high club, but declarer could have ruffed with dummy’s spade queen, drawn trumps, and claimed four spades, one heart, five diamonds, one club and the club ruff.

Prairie Ridge third baseman Kaleigh O’Brien entered with a .588 batting average, nine home runs and no strikeouts. Amy Walsh struck her out on a pitch low and outside in the first inning. O’Brien wasn’t happy with the call, but the pitch consistently was called a strike for both sides.

Schillinger’s snag in 3rd inning gets PR out of jam

By ALEX KANTECKI akantecki@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Prairie Ridge’s Maddie Schillinger already delivered a clutch, two-out single in the top of the second inning to give her team the early lead against Crystal Lake Central.

After the Tigers loaded the bases in the bottom of the third with two outs, it was Schillinger’s handy glove work that had the Wolves sprinting off the field with an extra jump in their step.

The 5-foot-4 second baseman had little time to react to a screaming line drive off the bat of Clare Urbanski that appeared to be headed for right-center field, taking one step and snagging the ball in the air to keep the Tigers off the scoreboard.

“I really wanted to get the out,” Schillinger said. “It was getting really intense, and we had two outs, so I just really wanted to make the play. It was reaction, just a reflex for me.”

Schillinger’s quick thinking got junior Hailey Baker out of the jam, and the Illinois-bound pitcher took care of the rest with a season-high 13 strikeouts en route to a 7-0 Fox Valley Conference Fox Division softball victory at Crystal Lake Central.

Baker (11-1) held the Tigers to only two baserunners over the final four innings, allowing five hits and walking one in the complete-game shutout.

Prairie Ridge (12-1 overall, 5-0 FVC Fox) has won nine straight games after a 2-1 loss to Dundee-Crown on April 11.

“Our defense was 100 percent on

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Prairie Ridge’s Hailey Baker (center) celebrates with teammates during Thursday’s game at Crystal Lake Central. The Wolves won, 7-0. tonight, we had zero errors,” Baker said. “Maddie (Schillinger) just comes up big in every game. I can’t think of a time where she’s had an error this season, so Maddie just tends to be the hero in every game defensively.”

On offense, the Wolves got solid production from the bottom half of the lineup. Freshman Emmie Farnam went 2 for 3 with three runs and two steals, senior Alex Johnson was 2 for 4 with an RBI double, and sophomore Haley Barnes drove in a run with a safety squeeze in the fourth.

Farnam noticed a trend against Tigers pitcher Amy Walsh, and, after grounding out in her first at-bat, took advantage in her final turns with two singles and one walk.

“I noticed that she was throwing outside and low almost every pitch, mostly, so I just wanted to get up on the

plate and hit her outside pitches as if they were strikes,” Farnam said.

After Schillinger’s defensive heroics in the third, the Wolves added single runs in the fourth, fifth and sixth innings. They had three unearned runs in the seventh, and Baker retired Central (7-5, 2-3 FVC Fox) in order in the bottom half. “[Prairie Ridge] is a team that takes advantage of opportunities, and that’s the mark of a good team,” Tigers coach Brian Strombom said. “When Baker can place the ball as well as she did, you better take advantage of every opportunity that you’ve got. We had a great one with the bases loaded in the third, ripped a ball, just to the wrong spot.”

Walsh struck out five and gave up four earned runs on nine hits and four walks in seven innings, also getting one of her team’s five hits.

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

About 7 p.m., the weather changed and wind began gusting. Some of the fastest running of the night, because there were no running events, was coaches and athletes chasing their tents across a field. Some tents suffered significant damage and will have to be replaced.

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – One individual championship was not enough for Cary-Grove’s Nikki Freeman or Prairie Ridge’s Natasha Shaffer.

Freeman, a senior, swept the throws and Shaffer, a sophomore, won the long and triple jumps at the McHenry County Track and Field Meet on Thursday at Huntley’s Harmony Road Campus Stadium.

Freeman set two meet records with her 150-2 in the discus and her 42-10 shot put effort. Shaffer’s 3771/4 triple jump was her career-best by almost 2 feet. McHenry senior Savannah Howie also set a meet record with her 11-9 pole vault.

Cary-Grove jumped to the lead with 60 points with Freeman and sophomore Tabor Gleason leading

the way. Huntley (40) and McHenry (37) are next in the team standings.

Gleason won the high jump and took second in triple jump, while Maggie Cherveny took thirds in the long and triple jumps.

Freeman expected to break her own discus mark and beat it by 17 feet, but the shot put record stunned even her.

“I worked with my coach [Sharon Sloan] on the back of the ring and keeping my [right] leg tighter when I come out of the back,” Freeman said, “and it was awesome. I’m very excited. I saw it go past the 40-foot mark and then saw it was 42.”

Shaffer beat the 2008 triple jump mark of Crystal Lake South’s Kellie Schuh (37-3).

4 BASEBALL: JOHNSBURG 17, MARENGO 0 (5 INN.)

Streaking Skyhawks rout Indians Johnsburg has scored 43 runs during 5-game winning streak

JOHNSBURG – During its fiveq AND ANOTHER THING ... game winning streak, part of the key Indians coach Josh Maas hopes Marengo’s to success for the Johnsburg baseball prom, which is this weekend, will give his team team has become scoring early and resome time to refocus: “Hopefully, they can get fusing to let up. away and forget about baseball for a little, so we’re fresh on Monday.”

“The last two games, we had a great first inning,” Skyhawks coach Sam Lesniak said. “Having a great first inning game at Tigers Field. sets the tone of the game.”

Chris Krennrich and Adam Jayko The Skyhawks scored four in the first inning of Thursday’s 17-0, five-in- threw a combined one-hitter, while the ning blowout of Marengo in a Big Skyhawks had 19 hits.

“We got a lot of young guys, firstNorthern Conference East Division

year varsity guys, who haven’t seen varsity pitching yet, and you knew it would only be a matter of time till we started swinging,” Lesniak said. “As of lately, we’ve been hitting the ball hard.

Our timing is there and it’s great.”

The Skyhawks (8-8, 2-1 BNC East) sent all nine batters to the plate in the first inning, scoring the four runs off a two-run single by Ryan Kordik (2 for 2, three RBIs), a Nico LoDolce (3 for 4) RBI single and an Austin Butler sacrifice fly.

Jayko and Kaeden Quinn also had three hits for the Skyhawks.

Krennrich, a junior who started on the mound for the Skyhawks, threw two scoreless and hitless innings, striking out three. In the second inning, his two-run shot to right field extended the lead to 6-0.

“I think it’s just been getting ahead early, jumping on teams, playing solid defense and letting our pitchers work,” said Krennrich, who went 2 for 2. “It’s just been helping us out a lot.”

Johnsburg has scored 43 runs in its past five games, and on Thursday, scored at least four runs in four of the five innings.

“Our bench is starting to come alive now, starting to hit a lot more, and we’re just going through the lineup and everyone’s getting the job done,” Krennrich said.

Twelve of the 13 players who saw game action for the Skyhawks reached base at least once.

The Indians (4-10, 1-5 BNC East) reached base only four times – once each on an error, a fielder’s choice, a walk and a single in the fifth inning off the bat of pinch-hitter Ben Skow.

They also committed four errors that resulted in extended innings for their opponent.

“They just beat the heck out of the ball,” Indians coach Josh Maas said.

“It seemed like any ball they put in play was a line shot, even the outs. It was just one of those days. ... I just told the guys, ‘You can’t dwell on it.’ ”

FOOTBALL RECRUITING

Inside Boys Tennis

Proud Sponsor of Athlete of the Week

By JON STYF jstyf@shawmedia.com It’s the evaluation period for high school football players, meaning college football coaches can take two visits to a school. Jacobs’ Chris Katrenick already committed to Bowling Green on one of those in-school visits. Katrenick is one of two quarterbacks committed to Bowling Green from his class.

But he isn’t the only one in the area getting visitors. New Crystal Lake Central offensive coordinator Dirk Stanger tweeted Thursday morning, thanking Northwestern for its visit to the school. One of Dalton Wagner the prospects the Wildcats are looking at is sophomore offensive tackle Wyatt Blake. Stanford and Toledo also are set to be at Central on Thursday.

Toledo special teams/tight ends coach Robby Discher also was at McHenry, speaking with junior linebacker Colton Folliard.

Richmond-Burton and top junior offensive tackle prospect Dalton Wagner have received a ton of interest. Toledo and Central Florida already visited Wagner on Thursday, and Northwestern is headed there Friday.

Virginia, California, Syracuse, Indiana, Arkansas, Penn State, Missouri, Oregon and Oklahoma all plan to visit R-B soon. Alabama and Auburn also have shown interest. That’s all after taking a ton of unofficial visits this spring already, meaning long car rides and Wagner’s favorite pit stop, Arby’s.

Wagner has 15 offers, from Western Michigan, Illinois, Miami (Ohio), Louisville, Buffalo, Missouri, Toledo, Illinois State, Indiana, Wyoming, Arkansas, Syracuse, Utah, Virginia and UCF. Huntley, led by junior defensive line prospect Olalere Oladipo, is certainly getting its fair share of visitors, as well. Toledo and Indiana were in for morning workouts Thursday while Indiana defensive coordinator Tom Allen was scheduled to visit in the afternoon.

Same goes for Prairie Ridge, where several Big Ten schools have been in and more are scheduled in the next couple days.

Oladipo has 18 Division I offers, from Illinois, Illinois State, Central Michigan, Miami (Ohio), Western Michigan, Wyoming, Toledo, Indiana, Bowling Green, Northern Illinois, Buffalo, New Mexico, Minnesota, Syracuse, Purdue, Penn State, Maryland and Florida Atlantic.

He visited Indiana and Illinois last weekend.

WESTERN CONFERENCE FIRST ROUND: BLACKHAWKS 4, BLUES 3 (2OT) (BLUES LEAD SERIES, 3-2)

By R.B. FALLSTROM The Associated Press

• Friday, April 22, 2016

ST. LOUIS – Patrick Kane scored on a backhander early in the second overtime and the Blackhawks avoided first-round elimination with a 4-3 victory over the St. Louis Blues early Friday.

The game winner was the first goal in the series by the defending Stanley Cup winners’ stars, Kane and Jonathan Toews. Both assisted on Artemi Panarin’s goal in the final second of the second period for a 3-1 lead.

Kane, who led the NHL in scoring with 107 points, circled the net to corral his own shot that slowly slid wide, and poked it past Brian Elliott at 2:56 to send a standing-room crowd of 19,956 home unhappy.

David Backes tied it on a deflection that slipped past Corey Crawford with 5:10 to play. Rookie Robby Fabbri and Jaden Schwartz also scored for St. Louis.

A fan (top right) who ran onto the field celebrates with Cubs starting pitcher Jake Arrieta and his teammates after Arrieta threw a no-hitter against the Reds on Thursday night in Cincinnati. The Cubs won, 16-0.

CUBS 16, REDS 0

Arrieta tosses 2nd no-no Cubs smack 5 home runs in blowout victory

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com CINCINNATI – He did it again.

And at this rate, the only question seems to be when, not if, the next one is coming.

Cubs ace Jake Arrieta started strong and finished stronger Thursday to complete his second no-hitter in eight months, dominating the Reds in a 16-0 victory at Great American Ball Park.

The 2015 National League Cy Young Award winner walked four on a soggy night but faced only two more than the minimum, thanks to a fourth-inning pickoff by catcher David Ross and a 6-43 double play to end the sixth. He struck out six.

After walking Scott Schebler to lead off the ninth, Arrieta retired the final three on a popup to short, a liner to center and a high fly to right fielder

Jason Heyward, sending the Cubs running and leaping to the middle of the diamond. It also brought the remaining 6,000 or so fans to their loudest cheers of the night.

It’s the second no-hitter in 11 starts for Arrieta, who got his first against the Dodgers on Aug. 30 in Los Angeles.

If he hasn’t proven he’s the best pitcher in baseball since last season, he’s the hottest since last June.

Over his past 24 regular-season starts, he’s 20-1 with a 0.86 ERA (178 innings).

Over his past 16, he’s 15-0 with a 0.53 ERA (1191/3 innings).

The closest the Reds came to a hit were a pair of sharp grounders in the third and fourth innings.

Zack Cozart drove a bouncer behind the bag at third that Kris Bryant gloved and threw on a two-hopper from foul territory to first baseman Anthony Rizzo, who caught it with a backhand sweep to get Cozart by a half-step to end the third.

In the fifth, Rizzo dove to his right to rob Joey Votto of a hit through the hole and jumped to his feet to deliver a toss to Arrieta for the out.

Arrieta retired the first four he faced

on ground balls, then after walking Jay Bruce with one out in the second, he struck out three of the next four.

Until Thursday, the Reds had gone the longest of any major league team without being no-hit – a regular-season streak of 7,109 games. The last time the Reds were no-hit was June 23, 1971, by Philadelphia’s Rick Wise.

Arrieta’s last loss came at the hands of the Phillies’ Cole Hamels last July, a no-hitter by Hamels at Wrigley Field that snapped what was then the longest streak in the majors (7,920).

Lost in the glare of Arrieta’s historic night was a five-homer night by the Cubs, including two by last year’s Rookie of the Year, Bryant.

Bryant hit a two-run homer in the first, staking Arrieta to the early lead, then added a grand slam in the seventh in a four-hit game, matching his career high of six RBI. Ben Zobrist, David Ross and Rizzo also hit home runs.

Arrieta also reached base three times, on two singles and a walk.

The Cubs scored twice each in the first two innings and four times each in the sixth and seventh, then added three more in the ninth.

T–2:48. A–11,418 (40,615).

fifth-place hitter Melky Cabrera (solo homer in the seventh) is hitting .304.

“It’s a small sample size still,” Frazier said.

Mike Trout belted a two-run homer in the fifth against Danks, and catcher Carlos Perez – on his second attempt – bunted Kole Calhoun across in the ninth against Zach Duke with the Angels’ third run.

That turned out to be the game-winner. The Sox made it interesting in the ninth after Frazier homered and Cabrera and Lawrie walked with two outs. But Austin Jackson flied out to the left field wall to end the game.

“I appreciate and like the effort in the ninth inning of bringing the winning run to the plate,’’ Ventura said. “I like that about our team.’’

Danks (6.27 ERA), who didn’t give the Sox a chance to win his first two times out, did this time despite five walks (he got three double play grounders). He has lost his first three starts for the first time in his career.

“I’m not worried about how it looks,’’ he said. “I’m pleased to keep us in the game. I certainly need to be sharper than that, and we will. It’s just a step in the right direction, I would say.’’

“We need to score some runs,’’ Ventura said. “I don’t think anyone out there early was breaking the radar gun.

We needed to do something and ‘Weave’ kept spinning it in there, taking something off and we couldn’t get it going.’’

CHICAGO – Say this for the White Sox, they have some fight-to-the-finish moxie. But do they have enough ammunition?

On a day when John Danks starts and the opponent is held to three runs, victory should be expected, but the light-hitting Sox (10-6) took another “if only” loss on the chin, a 3-2 setback after they threatened in the ninth but came up short to settle for a four-game series split with the Los Angeles Angels.

The Sox are saying not to worry, this one-tenth of a season sample size is small.

But a level of frustration exists knowing some extra pop – with the American League leading pitching they’ve put out there – could have them standing at 12-4 or even 13-3 right now. They have scored three runs or fewer in 10 of their games and have lost three times when holding opponents to three runs or fewer.

The Sox had three hits against slow and slower right-hander Jered Weaver (2-0) in seven innings and finished with five.

“Pitchers have been doing their jobs,” said Todd Frazier, whose twoout solo homer in the ninth inning against Huston Street cut the deficit to a run. “We’ve been up and down a little bit. But to say we’ve been scuffling, I think that’s the wrong term. We’ve been playing well.

“We haven’t been getting 8, 9 or 10 runs a game, but we’ve been winning.

Pitchers do their job and we find a way to get a couple of runs, we’ll take 2-1 wins every day of the week.’’

The close wins will be appreciated late in the year, Frazier said. But what about the 2-1 and 3-2 losses that likely will mount if slugger Jose Abreu (.190, one double, six RBIs) doesn’t come out of his 4-for-37 slump? Or if Avisail Garcia (0 for 3 to fall to .146) supplies little at designated hitter? “[Abreu is] chasing pitches, trying to do too much,” manager Robin Ventura said. “When you’re hitting .190, you’re a .190 hitter and there’s a reason why you’re doing it, probably because you’re chasing pitches. Is he better than that? Do we expect more of him? Absolutely, and we have confidence he’s going to do that. As soon as he stops chasing it he’s going to be just fine.’’

On the plus side, Frazier (.206) has shown life with hits in his past three games, including two homers. And

Two sides to noise concerns for area residents Last week, I ran a letter from regular reader Gary Bitler, who wrote about “a major problem with target shooting in our neighborhood.”

Bitler said he lived in a neighborhood east of Richmond and he was referring to noise stemming from the shotgun blasts emanating from the nearby Richmond Hunt Club.

Bitler wrote: “We are subjected, beginning anywhere from 7 to 8 a.m., to 12-gauge shotgun blasts going off every few seconds for hours on end every weekend or any other day they choose to go out and disturb the peace.”

He wanted to know, “Why is this an acceptable activity in a residential neighborhood? Why is there a right for a few to make an incredible amount of noise and the rest of us have no right to peace and quiet in our own homes?”

I asked for your opinions and received plenty. First, I’d like to offer mine. This seems to me like the complaints voiced by people who move into Wrigleyville and complain about the ballpark or people who move to Rosemont and complain about the airplane noise. Wrigley Field and O’Hare were there long before most of the houses that were built around them.

I certainly can understand the plight of people whose lives are in-

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley terrupted by construction of new facilities that might be considered to be intrusive. Although it would be convenient for my commuting effort, I can understand why the residents of Lake Zurich, Kildeer and Long Grove do not want the extension of Route 53 to be built. When they bought their homes, living in proximity to a major highway was not a part of the package.

Now, Richmond Hunt Club has been situated on its present location since its opening in the 1950s. The club preceded almost all of the homes that are located within earshot of its hunting activities.

I put in a call to Tony Boruca, Richmond Hunt Club’s general manager, to get a comment on this matter. Boruca did not return my call. I guess I cannot blame him for not wanting to comment. Boruca runs a classy operation, and what it does is perfectly legal.

There really is no reason to offer a comment.

One of the better letters I received was from Ron Branum from Johns-

burg, who wrote, “My wife often complains when there is shooting in our area in the fall (likely early morning bird hunting). I always tell her people have been doing that in this area for 150 years, but now that she has moved into the area, she feels they should stop. This seems a bit unreasonable to me.

“I am a bit annoyed with the traffic noise from the highway about 75 yards from my home, but I was aware that it was there when we moved into the area, so it is time to accept what I cannot change. I am not taking sides here, because I do not know the situation with the person that is unhappy with the shooting, but one must wonder who was established in that area first?”

I figured most of the letters I would receive would be similar to Branum’s, but I figured incorrectly.

Reader Cindi Gora wrote, “I am all for banning this [shooting] in and around residential areas unless it is inside a building with sound proofing, so you cannot hear all of the noise.

“We moved to an area a year ago that is located within a city limit.

The week after we moved in, all of the noise started. Unbeknownst to us, there is a guy who is able to license

people to carry guns. This guy has his target practice outside, and is less than a mile away from my home in unincorporated McHenry County. The noise goes on throughout the year, even during the winter if it is nice outside. It was so bad at one point the noise was nonstop from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

“My windows are shut and you can hear the gunfire in my home. I can’t even open my windows when he’s doing this. It’s so loud. I have called both the city and the county sheriff’s office, and they state it’s legal and there is nothing they can do about it.

What about my rights? This is nuts.

I wouldn’t have moved here if I had known this guy lived down the road.

It’s one more thing to bring my home value down in McHenry County.”

Thank you, Cindi. I certainly can feel your pain. I can see the other side of the coin in that someone buying a house near a hunt club or a shooting facility probably doesn’t realize that there will be shooting going on until after they move into the residence.

Maybe realtors should be required to inform potential property owners.
