Good morning, McHenry County ...

Franks: College funding bill ‘dangerous precedent’ Legislation to release $600 million to Illinois’ colleges and universities sailed through the state House on a 106-2 vote last week. The Senate followed, approving the measure, 55-0. Gov. Bruce Rauner signed the spending bill Monday.

That’s 162-2 in favor, if you’re keeping count.

Among the two voting against? State Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo. “This is a 72 percent cut to higher education and MAP grants,” Franks told me. “I couldn’t codify that.”

The state of Illinois has been operating without a budget since July 1. While many state operations have continued to be funded through court order and other means, others – such as higher education – have not.

Until this latest funding was approved, Chicago State University said it would run out of money at the end of this month. Others wouldn’t last through the summer.

But Franks says this funding bill will hurt higher education in Illinois long term, not help it, because it creates a new, much-lower

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Dan McCaleb funding threshold. The $600 million is a fraction of what the state has paid for higher education in the past, and Franks doesn’t think more funding will be approved this fiscal year.

Among the funding cuts are MAP grants that help lower-income students attend college.

“This [$600 million] is the new starting point,” he said. “This is going to be affecting classrooms. We’ve lost 16,000 students to other states’ universities [the past few years.] This is a very dangerous precedent we’re setting.”

And the beat goes on in Springfield.

INSURANCE PREMIUM HIKES

DOG SAVES MAN IN SNOW

Insurers will seek significant premium hikes under President Barack Obama’s health care law this summer – stiff medicine for consumers and voters ahead of the national political conventions.

Expect the state-by-state premium requests to reflect what insurers see as the bottom line: The health law has been a financial drain for many companies. Story, page A16.

GAME THEORY FOR PARENTS

Game theory, a branch of mathematics dealing with strategic thinking, can apply to parenting, said writer/dad Paul Raeburn, who wrote a book with academic Kevin Zollman about all the ways dealing with kids might go more smoothly if only parents knew a little bit about game theory. Story, page A23.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – Police said a man wearing only a T-shirt during a snowstorm would have frozen to death at the base of a mountain had it not been for an alert 2-yearold black Labrador mix.

Police said the dog named Marley heard the man’s cries for help, according to The Arizona Daily Sun. The dog’s owner, John Paul Roccaforte, said he let Marley go outside around 1 a.m. when he started barking and wouldn’t stop.

Roccaforte said he heard someone moaning and calling for help.

He called 911. First responders found a man who appeared to be in his mid-20s lying in a secluded area nearby. The man was wearing only a T-shirt with no coat. It was about 32 degrees at the time.

SHOWING THE WAY Stand Down in McHenry connects veterans with services

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com McHENRY – When Norberto Martinez got out of the Army in 2009, he felt like he was invisible.

Martinez, now 40, said he had been forced to leave the military because of an injury he suffered while serving in Iraq.

He returned to Harvard to work various dishwashing jobs, unaware that anyone wanted to help him.

“You come out and think everybody will be excited to see you,” Martinez said.

“But nobody sees you. Nobody shows you anything.”

He was very visible Thursday.

At the McHenry County Veterans Stand Down, Martinez was one of dozens of veterans from across the county learning about local, state and federal resourc-

es available to help them once they have returned from service.

Veterans strolled through rows of tables occupied by agencies, employers and companies at VFW Post 4600 in McHenry.

They received free haircuts and health screenings. They left with bags full of information on housing, health benefits, gym memberships, utility bill assistance and more.

The event was about much more than the handouts, though. Since the event started three years ago, its purpose has been to connect veterans with the assistance they need, said McHenry County Veterans Assistance Commission Superintendent Mike Iwanicki.

“The purpose was not so much to provide freebies and bling for everybody who

McHenry County middle-schoolers test knowledge in scholastic bowl

“I just remembered it from class,” Hartman said, holding the team’s trophy.

“I knew it was either the Aztec or Mayans. I guessed Aztec, and it was right.”

Eighteen middle schools from around McHenry County sent teams to the event,

“I just remembered it from class.

I knew it was either the Aztec or Mayans. I guessed Aztec, and it was right.”

Jake Hartman

Bernotas Middle School student which brought together about 140 trivia-inclined students ready to answer questions about math, science, language arts and social studies.

Asking questions about literary devices, historic dates and elements of the periodic table, the competition allowed for one school at a time to provide answers throughout the roughly three-hour competition.

Students wrote and whispered to one another excitedly after each question, looking toward the judges table with wide eyes hoping to hear the announcer say, “That is correct.”

Joie Gindorf, 14, thought her team

was doomed after incorrectly naming an element of the periodic table during the final science round, but she and her team from Hannah Beardsley were able to re-establish themselves after a question about the Vietnam War. “We came back,” Gindorf said. “We’re learning about the Vietnam War now, and before this I even said, ‘We’re going to get asked about that.’ ” She was right, and naming Lyndon B. Johnson as the U.S. president who ordered more troops to the war in the 1960s put the Hannah Beardsley team in a position to win the third-place trophy.

Immanuel Lutheran School in Crystal Lake took home the second-place trophy.

Hannah Beardsley coach and teacher Mary Warren, who also helped coordinate the event, said the scholastic bowl has become a chance for students interested in academics and trivia to be part of a team.

“Here, they get to compete and bring home trophies,” Warren said, adding the knowledge students display during the competition never ceases to impress her.

“The things they remember – it’s just incredible.”

McHenry County Conservation Dist. proposes $27.1 million 2017 budget

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Conservation District Board has proposed a 2017 budget with a slightly lower tax levy.

While the proposed $27.1 million budget is larger than the $25.3 million budget for fiscal 2016, which ended at the end of March, the overall property tax levy is $67,780 less than it was last year. As in previous years since housing values tumbled with the Great Recession, MCCD is touting its latest spending plan as a maintenance budget.

Finance Director Andy Dylak said continued staff reduction, less maintenance on rarely used properties, and a 2 percent reduction in health insurance expenses contributed to reduced operating costs.

“The district has been very aggres-

What’s next?

The McHenry County Board will vote Tuesday on the proposed 2017 budget for the McHenry County Conservation District. The meeting starts at 9 a.m. at the county Administration Building, 667 Ware Road, Woodstock. sive on controlling health insurance costs,” Dylak said.

The budget does include a 2 percent wage increase for noncontractual and nonunion employees.

About $12.1 million – slightly less that 45 percent of the proposed 2017 budget – is debt service to pay down bonds approved by voters in 2001 and 2007 to purchase land. The district maintains more than 25,000 acres and 33 sites open to the public. The two referendums allowed the district to more than double its land holdings.

Property taxes make up 83 percent of the MCCD’s operating revenues – state law caps its maximum general fund tax rate to a tenth of a percent of the county’s total assessed value. The MCCD accounts for about $172 of the property tax bill of the owner of a $200,000 home who takes the homestead exemption.

The McHenry County Board is set to vote on the budget next Tuesday. Its Finance and Audit Committee on Thursday morning voted, 6-1, to recommend approval.

The County Board’s oversight over the conservation district consists of approving its budget and appointing its board of trustees. The County Board can approve or reject the budget, but it cannot amend it.

The district’s budget year runs from April 1 to March 30. State law gives conservation districts three months into a fiscal year to approve a budget, in the event that a county board rejects it.

CL man charged with drug-induced homicide in Wonder Lake death

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A 23-year-old Crystal Lake man has been charged with drug-induced homicide in connection with a suspected morphine overdose death in Wonder Lake.

Jessie A. Brown, of the 1800 block of South Street, was arrested Wednesday after a monthlong investigation in connection with the death of 20-year-old Wonder Lake resident Ashley M. Mancuso, police said. Brown will appear in court Monday before McHenry County Judge Michael Feetterer.

The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched March 25 to the 7800 block of Balsam Drive, Wonder Lake, and found Jessie A. evidence indicating the 20-year-old might Brown have ingested morphine before she died, according to a release from the sheriff’s office. The case was then turned over to the McHenry County Sheriff’s Police Narcotics Task Force – which includes the Lake in the Hills Police Department.

The McHenry County Sheriff’s Police Narcotics Task Force also was assisted in its investigation by the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office and the McHenry County Coroner’s Office.

Brown is in custody at the McHenry County Correctional Facility on $250,000 bond.

Continued from page 3 walked in, but to provide services that could be used right away,” Iwanicki said.

Hosted by the Veterans Assistance Commission, TLS Veterans, McHenry County Housing Authority, McHenry County Community Foundation, James A. Lovell Federal Healthcare Center and the Illinois Department of Employment Security, the event allows veterans to access a glut of resources at once.

Based on an annual count from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, there are more than 22,000 veterans in McHenry County, Commission Chairman Joseph Kersten said.

Part of the focus of Thursday’s event was helping homeless and at-risk veterans. It’s difficult to say how many homeless veterans there are in the county, although figures from previous point-in-time counts show that about 50 percent of homeless people identified as veterans.

Last year’s event helped three veterans find hous-

ing, Kersten said.

It can be difficult for veterans to know what is available to them, said Sue Rose, community services director for the McHenry County Housing Authority.

“The ones that are obvious, like the VA and the VFW,” Rose said, “people know that. People get that.

But you’re not thinking Nicor, Thresholds, the Workforce Development Network or the Illinois Department of Employment Security.”

For Martinez, the organization he never realized could help a veteran such as himself was the Epilepsy Foundation. He hopes to use the service it offers to people who have suffered strokes, as he did in connection with the service-ending injury he sustained when an improvised explosive device detonated.

Holding on to the cane he uses as a result of that stroke, Martinez was grateful to see a different response to veterans than he did seven years ago.

“This will give us veterans a better view of what we want,” Martinez said.

“What we can have.”

A dozen McHenry County-area police departments are partnering with the Drug Enforcement Administration to give the public an opportunity to rid their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs.

Residents can bring their pills for disposal from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the following locations: • Algonquin Police Department, 2200 Harnish Drive, Algonquin • Cary Police Department, 654 Village Hall Drive, Cary • Crystal Lake Police Department, 100 W.

Wonder Lake Road, Wonder Lake The DEA cannot accept liquids or needles or sharp items, only pills or patches. The service is free and anonymous, with no questions asked.

Police said the medicines that languish in home cabinets are susceptible to diversion, misuse and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the numbers of accidental poisonings and overdoses because of these drugs.

Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet.

In addition, Americans now are advised that flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash can pose safety and health hazards.

cswieca@shawmedia.com Algonquin and Lake in the Hills this week became the latest McHenry County municipalities to consider changing their sign ordinances in light of the 2015 Supreme Court ruling restricting content-based sign regulations.

The Lake in the Hills Village Board approved modifications to the village’s sign code, which Director of Community Development Dan Olsen said were meant to make the ordinance more consistent, make sure all types of signs are covered and address any problem areas.

The amendments struck out sev-

eral parts of the code that regulated signs based on content, such as sections pertaining to election campaign and construction signs, to come in line with the ruling in Reed v. Town of Gilbert, Arizona.

Instead, regulations were clarified for signs based on whether they are permanent or temporary, with permanent signs generally allowed to be larger than temporary ones.

The amendments also clarified the rules for window signs, an area Olson previously said had been a problem.

The amount of the window that could be covered by signs was reduced from 50 percent to 30 percent, and the ordinance explained how

signs should be measured.

In Algonquin, suggested code amendments suggested were tabled after trustees asked staff to find out whether case law allows the village to limit the size of political signs allowed in residential areas.

The proposed changes had struck out regulations regarding political signs altogether and added a paragraph saying that noncommercial signs would have the same regulations as advertising or business signs.

Community Development Director Russ Farnum said the sign code was rewritten a few years ago, but the Supreme Court case last year prompted another review of the ordinance.

LOCAL BRIEF Crystal Lake’s Indian Prairie Elementary School celebrates 25 years with open house

CRYSTAL LAKE – Indian Prairie Elementary School is inviting the community to an upcoming open house to celebrate 25 years of serving Crystal Lake students.

The school was the first of three District 47 schools to be built on the south end of the city in 1991, according to a recent news release from the district.

The celebration, from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

May 5, will feature tours of the building.

Each classroom will showcase one of the school’s 25 years with photo boards and a video slideshow. Refreshments and snacks will be served.

“We look forward to this opportunity to highlight the quality education students have received at Indian Prairie as a result of outstanding leadership and a dedicated staff,” District 47 Superintendent Kathy Hinz said.

In addition to celebrating the school’s 25th year, the event also will mark Jim Kelley’s 22-year tenure as principal of Indian Prairie. Kelley will retire at the end of June.

CHAMBER NEWS Mary Margaret Maule It’s been a great learning experience.

“Everyday when I get to the Blazier Center, I check in with Chamber President Mary Margaret Maule or Administrative Assistant Jackie Ruiz for my daily assignments. So far, I have written articles for their magazine, helped coordinate large events, attended mixers, helped create the voting ballot for board member elections, and a variety of other tasks.

Each day provides a new learning experience.

“I came into this internship not knowing a whole lot about business, except what I’ve learned about sales from my dad. And now, at the halfway point of my assignment, my knowledge has grown exponentially. I had no idea how much time and thought went into making sure every chamber event was planned out perfectly, or

how demanding it is to cater to the needs of 960 chamber business members. Just by watching the staff, I’ve learned that professionalism is an attitude, and that Dean Brown to have success, one often needs to be selfless and think of the big picture. At the chamber, they ask not ‘What can you do for me?’ but ‘What can I do for you?’

I will apply this wisdom to my future endeavors.

“I asked Mary Margaret about how hosting an intern might benefit the chamber, and she said, ‘I think it’s interesting to have a new perspective in the workplace.’ Hopefully, I’ll provide such prospective. Before my time there is done, I will be going on a sales call with Deidre Martinez and learning about the budget with Bonnie Miller.

“As a senior, I have been in a classroom for as long as I can remember, so it has been a refreshing experience to get a taste of the professional world.

The big takeaways so far have been soft skills: learning how to interact and network with people, learning how to get a group to work to its potential, and seeing the importance of preparation and organization.

“On my first day, Mary Margaret said something I will never forget. ‘It takes a lot of effort to make things look effortless.’ I have certainly found that to be true. I have been given much valuable advice about my life moving forward, but what struck me the most is when Mary Margaret told me, ‘Everyone is [at the company] because they matter … . You will get further in life if you realize that the receptionist has just as much value as the CEO.’ “I am very thankful for the opportunity to have had an internship through a school program, and very grateful to the chamber staff for being so welcoming and easy to work with.”

The Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce is participating in the launch of an exciting new community partnership with District 155 that brings student interns into 60-plus community businesses to share experience and instructions to young adults as they are making their future career decisions.

Dean Brown joined our team and was immediately thrown into our largest community event – the Home and Business Expo. I asked Dean to share his experience. Enjoy.

“In their last semester of high school, most seniors already have at least one foot out the door. I wanted to do something meaningful in my last days at Prairie Ridge, so I enrolled in a new class called ‘Career Internship.’

The motto of the class is to ‘test drive a career before you make the educational and financial commitment.’

Although I’m undecided on my career path, I was thrilled to be placed at the Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce, where I would be able to interact with businesses of all sizes and industries.

K-tel creator, TV pitchman Philip Kives dies at age 87

By CHARMAINE NORONHA The Associated Press

TORONTO – Philip Kives, the tireless TV pitchman whose commercials implored viewers to “wait, there’s more!” while selling everything from vegetable slicers to hit music compilations on vinyl, has died at age 87.

Samantha Kives said Thursday that her father died a day earlier after being hospitalized with an undisclosed illness.

Kives became wealthy after founding marketing company K-tel International, which sold Miracle Brush hair removers, Veg-o-matic vegetable slicers and compilation albums with such titles as “Goofy Greats” among numerous other products.

Through it all, Kives mostly remained in his beloved Winnipeg and always balanced work with family life, his daughter said.

“He would literally leave in the middle of a business meeting to come watch us play in a tennis tournament,” she recalled. “The commercials were also a family affair. A lot of the commercials he shot, he’d bring us kids in ... and we’d be actors in the commercials.”

Kives started K-tel in the 1960s,

and according to a biographical sketch on his website, his biggest selling product was the Miracle Brush, which sold 28 million in the late 1960s. More products would follow, including the Pocket Fisherman, a hamburger patty stacker, and the mood ring.

The TV commercials sometimes included the hook line: “But wait, there’s more!”

For a generation of teenagers in the 1960s and 1970s, Kives’ legacy was a long list of compilation albums with hit songs that were sometimes edited down to fit 20 or more cuts on two sides of vinyl. A glam-pop song

by The Bay City Rollers could be found on the same record as country singer Dolly Parton and soul act The Drifters. Novelty song compilations such as “Goofy Greats” featured songs about purple people-eaters, itsy-bitsy bikinis and surfing birds.

Kives said his biggest music seller was ‘Hooked on Classics,’ which sold more than 10 million records.

K-tel grew exponentially in the 1970s and by the early 1980s, the company had sold more than half a billion albums world-wide.

Kives was born in Ougre, Saskatchewan, on Feb. 12, 1929, the third of four children.

STATE

Some fear chaos after home care ruling

By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD – Gaileen Roberts’ daughter Jody has cerebral palsy, is quadriplegic and developmentally delayed. But she can live at home because her mother earns a taxpayer-subsidized $13 an hour as her caregiver.

Sometimes Roberts works overtime, and as of January, the federal government requires extra work be compensated at time-and-a-half pay, so the cashstrapped state of Illinois has banned all but emergency overtime pay beginning Sunday. That means Roberts can be paid to take care of her daughter in the morning, but another person must come in for the evening, when Jody returns from afternoon basic-skills training, so Roberts doesn’t go over her allotted time.

Where can she find someone to do physical, often unpleasant work for $13 an hour and part-time, at that?

“I’m pretty much going to quit looking,” said Roberts, who lives in western Illinois. “They’re not out there.”

Home health care workers and their union said a working, reliable system is threatened by the decision of Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration not to allow overtime work at time-and-a-half

News from across the state Judge: Man suing Hastert can remain anonymous for now

CHICAGO – One day after a man publicly revealed himself as a sexual abuse victim of Dennis Hastert, a judge ruled Thursday that another victim does not have to reveal his name in a lawsuit that contends the former U.S. House speaker hasn’t paid all the money promised in exchange for his silence.

But Kendall County Judge Robert Pilmer did not rule out requiring the man, known in federal court documents as Individual A, to be identified in the future.

Pilmer also wants the lawsuit refiled, under seal, with the man’s name on it.

The brief hearing involving the man, who is at the center of the hush-money case that brought down Hastert – once one of the most powerful politicians in

by federal Medicaid reimbursement, but the state doesn’t know how many clients qualify.

The AP analysis shows that of 24,000 home workers, 27 percent worked more than 40 hours one or more times during the first half of the year which began July 1. On average, each claimed an extra 166 hours through early January – paid at the regular, straight-time rate.

Annualized at time-and-a-half, that’s about $2,000 more a person.

The no-overtime move will not only save money but curb timesheet abuse, Human Services spokeswoman Marianne Manko said. Service providers said they can’t find people willing to do low-paying work that involves such taxing and distasteful tasks as lifting clients from beds and cleaning them up.

“It’s one of the lowest-paid jobs in the state with no paid time off,” said AP photo Terri Harkin, vice president for home Elaine Walker takes care of her two daughters, Melissa (left) and Dasia, at their home care at SEIU Healthcare Illinois, which Thursday in South Holland.

In that packed Chicago courtroom, Scott Cross, the brother of a once-powerful Illinois politician, said Hastert, who sat just a few feet away in a wheelchair, had molested him when he was a wrestler at Yorkville High School and Hastert was his coach. After decades of silence, he said that he ultimately decided to speak publicly after he learned Hastert had reached out to his brother, Tom Cross, for a letter to the judge asking for leniency.

U of Illinois union starts five-day strike

URBANA– A faculty union at the University of Illinois’ Champaign-Urbana campus planned a five-day strike after contract talks with the school Wednesday ended without a settlement.

Shawn Gilmore is president of the Nontenure Faculty Coalition Local 6546. He said union members voted “overwhelmingly” Wednesday evening to authorize

a five-day strike. The (Champaign) News-Gazette reported the strike was to start Thursday with picketing scheduled to start at 8 a.m. at the English Building.

The union went on a two-day strike earlier this month.

The strike would cover remaining class days this semester, through Wednesday.

Finals start May 6.

Ex-officer charged in Ohio with wife’s death

ELK GROVE VILLAGE – A suburban Cincinnati man charged with murder in his wife’s shooting death is a former suburban Chicago police officer.

Elk Grove Village Police Chief Stephen Schmidt said 57-year-old Jeffrey Hawkins resigned in 1999 when the department started investigating a complaint that he used unnecessary force during an arrest.

Hawkins surrendered to officers at his home Monday after calling 911 and telling the dispatcher he just killed his wife. An Ohio judge set bond at $3 million Tuesday pending grand jury action next week.

Hawkins was with Elk Grove Village police from 1990 to 1999. A spokeswoman for Chicago’s Field Museum said he worked as a security officer there from 1999 to 2003.

‘El Chapo’ associate pleads guilty in Chicago court

CHICAGO – A reputed associate of Mexican cartel leader Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman has pleaded guilty to helping move more than $1.5 million in drug money between the U.S. and Mexico.

Edgar Manuel Valencia Ortega entered the plea Wednesday in Chicago federal court. The Chicago Tribune reported that he admitted to laundering money related to sale of cocaine in Chicago and Los Angeles. Prosecutors said Ortega isn’t expected to face other charges in connection with importing the drug.

U.S. authorities said the 28-year-old Ortega’s nickname was “the Fox.” He faces up to 20 years in prison and is to be sentenced Aug. 3.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Former speaker calls Cruz ‘Lucifer in the flesh’

FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Former House Speaker John Boehner unloaded on Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz during a talk to college students, calling the Texas senator “Lucifer in the flesh.”

Speaking at a town hall-style event Wednesday at Stanford University, Boehner called front-runner Donald Trump his “texting buddy,” but offered a more graphic response when asked about Cruz.

“Lucifer in the flesh,” the former speaker said. “I have Democrat friends and Republican friends. I get along with almost everyone, but I have never worked with a more miserable son of a [expletive] in my life.”

His comments were first reported by Stanford’s student newspaper.

Cruz, campaigning in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Thursday ahead of the state’s May 3 primary, responded by saying Boehner was letting his “inner Trump come out” with his remarks.

Yet those donors have largely shunned Ted Cruz and John Kasich, depriving each of them as much as $39 million in what has become a desperate final push to topple Trump.

Yet, donors who once gave as much as allowed by law to establishment favorites Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio have mostly disappeared from the political landscape, an Associated Press analysis of campaign finance records shows.

Less than 3 percent of the nearly 14,600 donors who gave the $2,700 limit to Bush or Rubio have also ponied up the maximum amount to Kasich or Cruz, the analysis found.

Brother, others related to shooters arrested

LOS ANGELES – Three people with close family ties to the couple responsible for the San Bernardino terror attack were arrested Thursday in an alleged marriage fraud scheme involving a pair of Russian sisters.

The accused include Syed Raheel Farook.

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., speaks Wednesday in West Lafayette, Ind.

Clinton backers ‘feeling the Bern’ of Sanders supporters

By LISA LERER

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Nancy Schumacher said she just wanted to do her civic duty, and so she heeded the call to become a superdelegate for Hillary Clinton. But in the year of the angry voter, not even an administrative assistant from Elk River, Minnesota, can escape the outrage.

“Some of the (phone and email) messages called me names. Some of them called Hillary names. And others said I was a stupid [expletive] and something bad will happen to me,” said Schumacher, a Democratic committee member. “It’s kind of hard to take sometimes.”

Bernie Sanders defied expectations to turn his long-shot presidential bid into a real threat for the Democratic nomination. Now, as his path to the White House becomes all-but-impossible, some of his supporters are lashing out at a system they believe was engineered against them from the start.

While Sanders decries a “rigged” economy, some of his backers see signs of corruption everywhere – even in the party their candidate hopes to lead. Some have turned their frustration on superdelegates, the party insiders whose ability to back either candidate give them an outsized role in picking the nominee.

The superdelegates include public officials: governors, former presidents and even Sanders himself. But they also include people like Schumacher, volunteers who’ve generally stayed behind the scenes.

The Sanders campaign assures everyone that it doesn’t condone harassment.

Yet Schumacher said she’s received vitriolic

phone and email messages from self-identified Sanders backers and doesn’t quite understand how things got quite so nasty. Eight years ago, she backed Clinton but said she “cheerfully” switched to Illinois Sen. Barack Obama. She’d do the same, she said, if Sanders won the popular vote or pledged delegates from state primary elections.

“I got five emails on Easter Sunday. I mean, give me a break,” she said.

Barry Goodman, a personal injury lawyer in Detroit, suddenly found his firm’s Yelp business review page besieged by bad ratings.

“You deserve this rating. Why does some random lawyer get more sway than the citizens,” read one comment.

Gus Bickford, the former executive director of the Massachusetts Democratic Party, was taken aback by the threats that flowed into his inbox and onto his Facebook page.

“Someone put up a list of the superdelegates and a person from Rhode Island posted a response that basically said, ‘They should all be assassinated’ and then said ‘I’m only joking,’” recalled Bickford. “With the way people are talking, you never know who’s going to take something like that seriously.”

Bickford said many of the callers were Sanders supporters who asked him to side with the will of the people, even though Clinton narrowly won Massachusetts in March.

Democrats aren’t the only ones facing this kind of barrage: Some Republican delegates say they have also found themselves at the receiving end of death threats and other personal attacks from supporters of GOP front-runner Donald Trump.

Significant premium hikes expected under Obama health law

By RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR and TOM MURPHY The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Insurers will seek significant premium hikes under President Barack Obama’s health care law this summer – stiff medicine for consumers and voters ahead of the national political conventions.

Expect the state-by-state premium requests to reflect what insurers see as the bottom line: The health law has been a financial drain for many companies. They’re setting the stage for 2017 hikes that could reach well into the double digits, in some cases.

For example, in Virginia, a state that reports early, nine insurers returning to the HealthCare.gov marketplace are seeking average premium increases that range from 9.4 percent to 37.1 percent. Those initial estimates filed with the state may change.

More than 12 million people nationwide get coverage though the health law’s markets, which offer subsidized private insurance. But the increases also could affect several million who purchase individual policies outside the government system.

Going into their fourth year, the health law’s markets still are searching for stability. That’s in contrast to more-established government programs like Medicaid and Medicare Advantage, in which private insurers profitably cover tens of millions of people.

The health law’s nagging problems center on lower-than-hoped-for enrollment, sicker-than-expected customers, and a balky internal stabilization system that didn’t deliver as advertised and was already scheduled to be pared back next year.

This year, premiums for a benchmark silver plan rose by a little more than 7 percent on average, according to administration figures. A spike for 2017 would fire up the long-running political debate over the divisive law, which persists despite two Supreme Court decisions upholding Obama’s signature program, and the president’s veto of a Republican repeal bill.

Of the presidential candidates, Hillary Clinton is the only one promising to build on the Affordable Care Act. She’s proposed an aggressive effort to increase enrollment along with measures to reduce consumer costs.

The health law is “likely in for a significant market correction over the next year or two. There have been a lot of signals from insurers that premiums are headed up.”

Larry Levitt

Kaiser Family Foundation representative The Republican candidates all want to repeal “Obamacare.” Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders would incorporate it into a bigger government-run system covering everyone.

The health law is “likely in for a significant market correction over the next year or two,” said Larry Levitt of the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation. “There have been a lot of signals from insurers that premiums are headed up.”

Standard & Poor’s health insurance analyst Deep Banerjee said he expects premium hikes to be higher for 2017 than in the larger, more stable market for employer coverage. Insurers are facing higher medical costs from health law customers, and some companies priced their initial coverage too low in an attempt to grab new business.

“What they are doing now is trying to catch up,” said Banerjee.

Aetna chairman and CEO Mark Bertolini said Thursday the nation’s third-largest health insurer still sees a good business opportunity, but Congress needs to provide leeway for companies to design lower-cost plans tailored to young, healthy people.

“We will see the dynamics of the market get tougher as we go forward if we don’t get those kinds of structural changes,” he said. How that would happen in a politically polarized atmosphere, Bertolini did not explain.

Aetna lost more than $100 million on its health law business last year but hopes to break even this year.

The administration says talk of premium increases is premature and overblown. Initial requests from insurers will get knocked back in some states, officials say, aided by a rate-review process strengthened under the health law.

BEIRUT – Airstrikes and artillery killed more than 60 people in the past 24 hours in Aleppo, including dozens at a hospital in a rebel-held neighborhood, as Syria’s largest city once again was turned into a major battleground in the civil war, officials said Thursday.

Aid agencies warn that Aleppo is on the brink of a humanitarian disaster with the collapse of a two-month ceasefire and stalled peace talks.

The intensified violence – by far the worst since the partial cease-fire began – coincides with reports of a military buildup outside Aleppo that many fear is a prelude for a government attempt to force a complete siege of the city’s neighborhoods.

Battle-hardened residents were shocked by the bloodshed. Opposition activists accused the government of carpet-bombing rebel-controlled areas, while Syrian state media said more than 1,000 mortar rounds and rockets were fired at government-held districts, killing 22 people.

Video posted online by opposition activists showed rescuers pulling bodies from shattered buildings in the reb-

field hospital supported by Doctors Without Borders and the International Committee for the Red Cross was hit overnight, along with nearby buildings, according to opposition activists and rescue workers.

U.N. envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura appealed to the U.S. and Russia to help revive the peace talks and ceasefire, which he said “hangs by a thread.”

However, the violence only escalated.

Chief opposition negotiator Mohammed Alloush blamed the government of President Bashar Assad for the violence, saying it shows “the environment is not conducive to any political action.”

“What is happening is a crime of ethnic and sectarian cleansing by all means,” Alloush told The Associated Press, adding it was an attempt by Assad’s government to drive residents from Aleppo.

But a citizen journalist said there was little sign of people fleeing the city.

“Where can they go?” said Bahaa al-Halaby.

A Damascus-based Syrian military official denied the government had hit the hospital. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media.

OUR VIEW

IHSA needs pitch count It’s time that the Illinois High School Association enacts a pitch count rule for high school baseball.

Youth leagues already have the rules. Major League Baseball teams police themselves, trying to conserve their financial investments. Colleges do the same. But somehow, high school baseball has slipped through the cracks.

The data is clear. Throwing too much and too often can be harmful to a pitcher’s long-term arm health. Yet coaches, like what happened last week for Genoa-Kingston, still feel like it is OK to have their pitcher throw 167 pitches in one outing.

To be clear, most coaches are responsible. Most follow the guidelines and common sense. But it’s the outliers that can lead to tough consequences down the road for prospective pitchers.

The American Sports Medicine Institute, which has studied the issue extensively, has plenty of data showing pitch counts are both helpful and necessary. The group believes a 17- or 18-year-old shouldn’t throw more than 105 pitches in a game and should have at least four full days of rest before pitching from 76-105 pitches in a game again. Those guidelines are an attempt to decrease the chances of pitching with fatigue, which is when injury is most likely to occur.

ASMI also has done its best to clear up misconceptions, finding that there is not a strong connection between throwing curveballs and arm injuries. Throwing fastballs can be just as, if not more, dangerous. And pitchers from Latin America, where traditionally pitchers have thrown more pitches more often, do not have any less of a chance of requiring arm surgery than pitchers from other regions. The issue here, and in other states, is that there needs to be a standard in place.

Risk factors, such as poor mechanics and fatigue, are crucial. But it’s also important to note that pitchers on the highest level, with the most precisely honed mechanics in baseball, are strictly kept within reasonable pitch counts to protect their health.

There’s no reason that high school baseball shouldn’t be the same.

Vermont has a pitch count rule. Oregon has enacted a rule, set to go in place next season. Texas and many other states are discussing the same. It’s time for Illinois to join that list.

The IHSA’s current rules only restrict a player from pitching more than nine innings in one day, unless it’s one game that goes extra innings, in which case there is no restriction.

It’s time for that to change. The long-term arm health of high school pitchers is too important to keep the rules the same.

Prince deserves his own Graceland

In the days following Prince’s death, fans from all over have found themselves drawn to Paisley Park, a 65,000-square-foot compound that embodies the man’s musical genius.

As tributes to Prince’s life and career are contemplated, here is one that is almost obvious: Turn Paisley Park into Minnesota’s equivalent of Graceland – a memorial to the decades-long career of Prince Rogers Nelson, who proved to the music world that you didn’t have to leave home to make it big. Musician and longtime Prince collaborator Sheila E. recently told “Entertainment Tonight” that such a development may be in the works and that Prince had been planning it.

From the outside, Paisley Park might appear an unlikely choice. Its exterior is understated to the point of severity: A plain white, mostly windowless facility that almost looks industrial, it blends easily into the featureless Chanhassen landscape. But inside

may be one of the truest reflections ever seen of the relationship between an artist and the one-of-akind space in which he created.

Few artists have been so closely aligned with a physical place as Prince was with Paisley Park.

More than a recording studio, even more than a home, it was his refuge – not only where he lived, but where he recorded most of his music for the last quarter-century. Within its rooms he rehearsed, meditated, hosted after-concert parties and regularly invited in fans. It’s where he serenaded Madonna after she performed in concert here last year, and where last October he hosted a raucous party for the Minnesota Lynx women’s basketball team after they became world champions.

More than a few lucky Minnesotans have made the last-minute, late-night trek to Chanhassen for glimpses of their idol. While little is known about the interior space in its current state, Paisley Park at times has housed everything

from Prince’s unique collection of costumes to the motorcycle he rode in “Purple Rain.”

But more than just a museum, Paisley Park should also become a space for carrying on the work of mentoring artists, something Prince made a point of doing through much of his life. From singer Janelle Monae to ballet star Misty Copeland, Prince cultivated young talent, widening his mark on the musical scene.

It wasn’t until six years after his death that Elvis Presley’s Memphis home was open to the public. Since then it has itself become iconic, drawing 650,000 visitors a year.

It’s too soon to tell whether Paisley Park might achieve such heights. But we can think of no more fitting tribute to Prince than to have his home continue as a place where fans can marvel at his work and new, young artists can find the same creative haven it became for its owner.

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.

‘Lock’ funds for road improvements

To the Editor: Asking Illinois taxpayers to pay more to support investments in the roads and bridges they travel on is a real challenge, as evidenced by the recent attention given to proposals to increase the state gas tax and to ask drivers to pay for the miles they travel.

The state’s ongoing budget stalemate is doing nothing to ease taxpayer frustration.

But there is a movement in Springfield we think can start to change the conversation over transportation investment. It starts with making sure the dollars intended to fix our infrastructure actually get spent on those projects.

From 2003 to 2015, $6.4 billion in tax dollars collected for transportation infrastructure were diverted for other purposes.

That averages out to more than $500 million each year in dollars paid at the gas pump or through other fees that drivers paid.

Ask taxpayers whether they’re ready to pay more for our infrastructure and they’re likely to say they want to make

VIEWS Albert Hunt Clinton continued her seemingly inevitable march to the nomination, winning four of five contests: Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware and Connecticut. But Sen. Bernie Sanders, her only rival, won Rhode Island and insists that he will keep competing at least through the final June primaries.

In Indiana, the focus will be on the contest between Trump and Cruz. Fifty-seven delegates are at stake, about half of them awarded winner-take-all on the basis of the statewide vote. The remainder are awarded winner-takeall in each of the nine congressional districts. Kasich has agreed not to formally compete in the Hoosier state and Cruz, in turn, will stay out of New Mexico and Oregon primaries, which

sure the money being sent to infrastructure gets spent properly first.

As co-chairs of the Transportation for Illinois Coalition, we wholeheartedly agree.

We applaud the Illinois House for approving HJRCA 36. The measure would guarantee the money raised for road and other transportation purposes can only be used that way, creating a “lockbox” for these infrastructure funds.

The next step is for the Illinois Senate to take up this measure. If it is approved by next week, the measure will go to the November ballot – and voters will be able to decide if this strong protection for infrastructure investment is added to the state Constitution.

Old tricks are back

To the Editor: This letter is in response to Sunday’s letter, “Decrease County Board Size”.

It seems Rep. Jack Franks’ two-year cycle of old tricks is back, rallying the troops and making headlines before elections; trying to convince voters

occur later.

Trump dominates the mathematics of the delegate chase and the momentum, too. He is leading in Indiana polls.

His march to the nomination would be slowed if Cruz beat him in that state. Even then, however, Trump would have a big advantage.

In response, the Cruz and Kasich campaigns already are discussing the possibility of extending their pact to the June 7 primaries, when 303 delegates are at stake, including 172 in California.

But such a deal is contingent on how well Indiana works out. The uneasy cooperation, forged at Republican National Committee meetings last week, is already fraying – Kasich seems uncomfortable – and has caused some backlash.

A possible arrangement for June 7 might look something like this: Cruz would focus on California and most of the congressional districts; Kasich

might limit his presence to 10 or 12 districts, chiefly in northern California.

But the Ohio governor could try to take on Trump in New Jersey, a winner-take-all state. Trump is backed by Gov. Chris Christie and has proven unbeatable in other Northeastern states.

Yet Christie is unpopular in his home state and Kasich has a more impressive record as a governor. The case for Kasich might be strengthened

by Trump’s poor poll ratings in general election match-ups, nationally and in key states. For example, though he won the Pennsylvania primary handily, general election match-ups show Clinton running well ahead of him in the state.

That’s hardly comforting for anti-Trump Republicans, who face a steep uphill slog, but it’s all they have.

The Ted Cruz-John Kasich alliance failed on Tuesday night as Donald Trump rolled up huge victories in five Northeastern states. The two anti-Trump candidates have only one real option left: to double down on the troubled strategy.

With Kasich out of the way in Indiana next week, Cruz faces a mustwin showdown against Trump. If the billionaire takes that state, it may be close to impossible to stop him from winning the Republican presidential nomination.

If Cruz prevails, however, his camp and Kasich’s already are discussing a plan for dividing up the final huge primaries on June 7.

Trump’s pathway to the 1,237 delegates necessary to capture the nomination became easier with big victories on Tuesday.

He won more than 100 delegates, putting him less than 300 shy of the magic number.

How Amazon convinced you to pay for shopping

By MAE ANDERSON The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Amazon clearly is entering its Prime. Meaning, of course, its $100 annual membership program, now a decade old, which has accomplished the remarkable feat of convincing millions of people to pay an annual fee for the privilege of, well, shopping.

Prime now is central to Amazon’s strategy of dominating the world of commerce. What started as a yearly fee for free two-day shipping now offers a sometimes bewildering array of perks, including household product subscriptions, one- and two-hour Prime Now delivery, streaming music and video, e-books, groceries (for an additional $200 a year), photo storage and more.

“Prime has become an all-you-caneat, physical-digital hybrid,” Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos wrote in his annual shareholder letter in April.

He wants the service to be such a good deal that you’d be “irresponsible” not to sign up, he wrote.

Why the emphasis on Prime? Simply put, members of the loyalty program shop more frequently and spend more money, analysts said.

Prime shoppers helped drive Amazon’s surprise profit surge in the first quarter. Shares of the e-commerce giant jumped in after-hours trading Thursday after it reported a 28 percent jump in revenue, to $29.13 billion. Net income was $513 million, compared to a loss in the year-earlier quarter.

Amazon doesn’t release detailed numbers on Prime, although Bezos wrote that Prime has “tens of millions”

Amazon Prime delivery boxes are seen in Phoenix. Prime shoppers helped drive Amazon’s surprise profit surge in the first quarter. of subscribers. Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter estimates there are about 50 million Prime members.

Even a 25 percent price increase in 2014, the only one for Prime in 10 years, hasn’t appreciably dampened enthusiasm for the program. Membership grew 51 percent last year, including 47 percent growth in the U.S., according to Bezos.

Pachter estimates that Prime members spend about four times what others do, and account for about a third of all Amazon purchases. “That’s why Prime matters,” he said.

Tawnie Knight in Tuscon, Arizona joined Prime about two years ago for the convenience of free shipping. Since

then Amazon has become her default shopping site.

“I call it the $100 cart, because every time I go on there I spend about $100,” she said. “Before Prime I probably spend around the same amount, just with other retailers like Walmart.”

Brandon Kraft joined Prime when it began 10 years ago to get cheap textbooks while in school. Now he finds it essential – with five kids ranging in age 17 months to 6 years at home – for ordering diapers and wipes and other household goods.

“I think it’s fair to say we spend $125 or $150 a month at Amazon that we wouldn’t have been spending if we didn’t have Prime,” Kraft said. “We go

to the Amazon site first when we need something, and if they don’t carry it we start the actual shopping process of looking elsewhere.”

Of course, Amazon Prime isn’t for everyone. Those that shop infrequently online won’t find the $100-a-year fee worth it. With an estimated 244 million registered Amazon accounts, a large majority of Amazon shoppers – roughly 80 percent, in fact – haven’t signed up yet.

Amazon continues to add Prime offerings to entice more users. Last week Amazon started offering a monthly Prime subscription for $11 a month, aimed at hooking shoppers during the holidays when the majority of Prime members sign up. In 2015, 3 million shoppers joined Prime in the third week of December alone.

Amazon also introduced a standalone video service for $9 a month, setting itself up to directly compete with other streaming services like Netflix.

Investors have long griped about Amazon’s strategy of investing the revenue it makes into new offerings, leading to little or no earnings growth. But the first quarter results were the fourth in a row in which Amazon reported a profit, which some analysts interpret as a willingness to rein in costs when needed.

But Chief financial officer Brian Olavsky told reporters on a conference call that the company’s profits stem mostly from strong growth in sales. The company isn’t slowing its investments, he said, citing recent spending on logistics and original programming for its streaming video service.

BUZZWORTHY

Prince presents the award for favorite album – soul/R&B in 2015 at the American Music Awards in Los Angeles.

AP file photo

Fans’ Holy Grail: Unreleased songs in Prince’s vault LOS ANGELES – Before his death, fans searching online for Prince were likely to find just a handful of his performance videos and almost none of his recorded music.

In the days since he died, YouTube and other uploading sites have been flooded with hundreds of hours of the superstar musician’s songs, concert footage, TV appearances and music videos.

It’s a boon for Prince lovers, and a sign that the notoriously tight copyright controls the artist maintained over his material are rapidly loosening. It’s also building hope for hardcore fans that they might someday hear the Holy Grail of Prince’s music: unreleased recordings from the vault at Paisley Park, his famous recording studio complex in suburban Minneapolis.

“There could be hundreds of songs we haven’t heard, and I’m told they’re from all sorts of eras,” said author and journalist Toure’, who cited estimates from bandmates that Prince recorded a song a day on average during an “extraordinarily prolific” stretch in the 1980s. The finished “Purple Rain” had nine tracks, but there were reports that Prince and the Revolution recorded as many as 200 songs during that album’s sessions, he said.

Devoted fans will be eager for the emergence of unreleased album sessions like “Camille,” ‘’Dream Factory” and “Roadhouse Garden” – fabled projects that saw some tracks reworked for release and others locked away. Those who were awed by Prince’s fierce live shows – and legendary after-show shows – will want concert recordings. Then there are the collaborative sessions he did with artists like Miles Davis, not to mention the songs he channeled to other musicians like the Bangles, The Time and Mavis Staples.

“If anyone could have a great album in the vault, or several great songs, it could be him,” said Toure’, who interviewed Prince and wrote the 2013 book “I Would Die 4 U: Why Prince Became an Icon.” But, he said, even music icons such as John Lennon, Michael Jackson, Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain produced few posthumous gems even though all died while still actively recording.

Jenner uses women’s room at Trump hotel, posts video

NEW YORK – Caitlyn Jenner has taken up Donald Trump’s offer and used the women’s restroom at one of his luxury buildings.

The Republican presidential candidate said last week that he believes transgender people should be able to use whichever bathroom they choose. Trump said North Carolina’s so-called “bathroom law,” which directs transgender people to use the bathroom that matches the gender on their birth certificates, has caused unnecessary strife.

Trump said that if Jenner – who won an Olympic gold medal as Bruce Jenner – were to walk into Trump Tower, she could use whichever bathroom she wanted.

Instead, Jenner used the women’s room – without incident – at the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Manhattan.

She posted a video titled “Bathroom Break” on her Facebook page.

Lincoln Home visitors spent $13.8 million locally in 2015 SPRINGFIELD – Visitors to the Lincoln Home National Historic Site in Springfield spent more than $13.8 million at local businesses in 2015.

The State Journal-Register reported the figures come from a report released Wednesday by the National Park Service.

More than 233,000 people visited the site in 2015, and the report says site attendance is up 18 percent so far this year.

Lincoln Home site superintendent Dale

Phillips said the centennial celebration and lower gas prices are factors in the increased visitor totals.

The Lincoln Home was the third-most-visited site in the Springfield area last year, behind Lincoln’s New Salem State Historic Site and the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.

Officials said centennial events will continue at the Lincoln Home throughout the year.

Duke Ellington personal items head to NYC auction

NEW YORK – More than 250 items belonging to pianist, songwriter and bandleader Duke Ellington are headed for auction.

Guernsey’s says Ellington’s suits, piano and other items will be offered May 18 at the National Jazz Museum in Harlem.

They’re consigned by one of his nephews.

Ellington’s iconic white baby grand piano could bring as much as $1 million.

There are tuxedos and dinner jackets with Ellington’s name written inside the jacket pockets, ranging from $3,000 to $6,500.

The Grammy-award winning artist composed thousands of songs during his 50-year career. The auction has two dozen music manuscripts penned in Ellington’s hand. An orchestra arrangement of “Mood Indigo” could fetch up to $20,000.

Ellington also painted. The sale has several of his works. A portrait of his collaborator Billy Strayhorn is estimated at $30,000 to $40,000.

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Game theory, a branch of mathematics dealing with strategic thinking, has been applied to scenarios of war, business and biology. But parenting?

You bet, said writer and New York City dad of five, Paul Raeburn, who has written a book with academic Kevin Zollman noting all the ways dealing with kids might go more smoothly if only parents knew a little bit about game theory.

The book, “The Game Theorist’s Guide to Parenting,” was published in April by Scientific American/Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

A conversation with Paul Raeburn:

about game theory, but I was delighted to take a look at a new approach to parenting because as the father of five kids I’ve pretty much tried everything and I have what you might call a mixed record. All of my kids have turned out fine, but it’s been a real learning experience along the way.

AP: In parenting, does game theory rely on the notion of negotiating. Should parents be in the business of negotiating?

Raeburn: In

negotiations, you have to be strategic. Our children are some of the toughest negotiators we will face. They really can stick to their positions.

So the ideas of game theory that are applicable to parenting include how to better negotiate with your kids, how to be fair, how to encourage them to be fair with one another and how to encourage them to cooperate with one another.

AP: What are some specific game

theories that relate to parenting?

Raeburn: For instance, the idea of

fairness. If you’re going to share a piece of cake and you want to share it fairly between your son and your daughter, one game theory technique is called, ‘I cut, you pick.’ So your son, who is older, takes the knife and cuts as carefully as possible into two pieces and then your daughter picks the one she wants.

He has the incentive to make them as identical as possible because if they’re not he’s going to get the smaller piece. That works pretty well.

The problem there is who cuts, so a game theorist would say it’s important to make sure you alternate who cuts.

That works pretty well.

AP: What about cooperation?

Raeburn: Suppose you ask your son

and daughter to clean up the bedroom.

You’ve promised them ice cream if the room gets cleaned up. You come back in a little while and the room is clean, but your son looks exhausted and your daughter is sitting in a corner playing with one of the toys.

It turns out he’s done all the work and she hasn’t done any of it, so do they both get the ice cream? Will your son be willing to do all the work next

tionships, it’s always the agent who knows more. So when you send your son to school and he comes back and tells you everything is fine, you the parent are the principal because he knows everything and he only gives back to you some of that information.

But there are indirect ways you can discover whether he’s doing his best in school without prying too much or making him a neurotic mess to get A’s when he’s only capable of B’s.

Let’s say he’s in high school and he’s starting to think about college.

He finds a college that he likes that’s a reach. You sit back and see what happens and suddenly he’s doing better in school. That’s telling you all he needed was the incentive.

Sometimes, you don’t have to do anything. You can find out much more by sitting back.

AP: What motivated you to take on game theory as it relates to parenting?

Raeburn: I didn’t know a whole lot

Basically, without getting into the mathematics of game theory, which are beyond me, the idea is game theory is sort of an organized way of studying strategies. As parents, it can give us confidence to do the things we instinctively think we should do.

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff only will tell you if you are at a greater or lower risk.

For Alzheimer’s disease that begins later in life, as it does in most cases, a gene called apolipoprotein E (APOE4) is associated with greater risk for dementia.

If you inherit one copy of APOE4, your risk triples. If you have two copies, your risk is 10 to 15 times higher (this is rare).

But having APOE4 does not mean you definitely will develop dementia. Among people age 70 who have no signs of Alzheimer’s disease, about 25 percent have one or more copies of the risk gene. Nor does the absence of APOE4 protect you: About 35 percent of people with Alzheimer’s don’t carry the risk genes.

Some forms of Alzheimer’s disease begin early in life, even in a person’s 30s.

These forms are uncommon, but they more often run in families. The more common form of older-onset Alzheimer’s disease that typically begins after age 65 is what we’ve been talking about.

There are many diseases like older-onset Alzheimer’s disease in which a person’s risk is increased if a first-degree relative has the disease. Yet that does not mean a person with an affected relative is destined to get the disease – or that a person without an affected relative is guaranteed protection from the disease.

Dear Dr. K: My father has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Does that mean my children and I eventually will develop Alzheimer’s too?

Dear Reader: Many people worry if a parent had Alzheimer’s disease, they are doomed. But that’s not true. Having a first-degree relative (parent, sibling or child) with Alzheimer’s disease increases a person’s risk by about 30 percent. That sounds like a lot, and therefore sounds scary. But what you really want to know is: What is my risk in the first place? If it’s a very low number, then raising a low risk by 30 percent won’t be a big deal.

Here are the numbers. If you are age 65, the risk of being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s is 2 percent per year. (This also means a 98 percent chance per year of not developing Alzheimer’s.) In absolute numbers, a 2 percent annual risk means two out of 100 65-year-olds will develop dementia every year.

Family history raises the 2 percent annual risk by about 30 percent, to 2.6 percent per year. That means going from 20 cases in a group of 1,000 to 26 in 1,000, or six additional cases in 1,000.

Age raises the chance of Alzheimer’s more than family history. People in their 70s have a 5 percent chance of being diagnosed. That’s more than twice that of people in their 60s. Family history raises this by 30 percent, from 5 percent to 6.5 percent. Again, the absolute change is relatively small.

When a relative is diagnosed with dementia later in life, family members often wonder if they should be tested for the “Alzheimer’s gene.” The short answer is no, because the test won’t tell you whether you will develop the disease. It

a hypochondriac, and I’m waiting on the biopsy results for a mole I had removed.

I’m worried and miserable. I feel guilty for what I’m putting my husband through. I want to get therapy, but doing that feels like admitting I’m too weak to handle my problems myself. My husband thinks he’s a bad husband because he can’t help me.

This isn’t the first time I have worked myself up over a medical condition I may or may not have, and it won’t be the last. How can I deal with my fear of dying from something horrible?

Can hypochondria be cured? It’s starting to take over my life. – Hypochondriac In The South Dear Hypochondriac: It’s a wise person who seeks help for a problem that’s ruining the quality of his or her life. You definitely should discuss your fear of dying with a licensed mental health professional. To do that isn’t “weak” – it’s the opposite.

Dear Abby: My son is getting married in the fall, and we’re all looking forward to the celebration. There’s just one problem. My daughter will be in the wedding, and the bridesmaids’ dresses are strapless. She will look beautiful in the dress, but she adopted a “hippy lifestyle” a year ago and stopped shaving her armpits.

The bride-to-be asked me how to approach her to request she remove her armpit hair on the day of the wedding. Is there a tactful way to approach this without offending my daughter and possibly causing bad feelings between her and the bride? – Unsure In New Jersey Dear Unsure: I would discourage you from doing that. Although every bride wants her wedding to be “perfect,” there’s a point at which she must realize there are some things she can’t control. An example of where that boundary should be drawn would be at her bridesmaids’ armpits. During a formal wedding ceremony, bridesmaids usually keep their arms down, so unless your daughter’s “pit hair” is so long she can braid it, it should not distract attention from the bride.

Dear Abby: My parents built a two-bedroom apartment onto their house for my brother and his wife when they were struggling financially.

They decided to move out of state, so my single sister is now in the apartment.

It has been a year, and my brother and his wife now are expecting. They have moved back to the area because they want to raise the baby near family, and want the apartment back. Of course, my sister doesn’t want to give it back.

I agree with my sister that my brother gave it up. But my brother feels my single sister doesn’t need a two-bedroom apartment. On that point I agree with him. What do you think should be done? – Squabbling Siblings Dear “Squab”: Get out of the middle by stepping away.

ALGONQUIN

SHABBY & SHEEK ESTATE SALE 50's / 60's Style Items 9 Wildwood Road, Algonquin

Will Rogers said, “If advertisers spent the same amount of money on improving their products as they do on advertising, then they wouldn’t have to advertise them.”

At the bridge table, every bid and most passes, especially on the first round of the auction, advertise something about a hand. Each player hopes that partner will benefit more than the opponents, but as we have seen this week, that isn’t always the case. Here is another example where tracking high-card points turns an apparent guess into a certainty.

In fourth position, South opens one heart; North makes a game-invitational limit raise; and South goes to game. (If your partnership uses the Drury convention, do not stop.)

West starts the defense with his three top clubs. After ruffing the last, how should South continue?

Declarer draws trumps, runs his diamonds, discarding two spades from the board, and leads a spade. When West plays low smoothly, should South call for dummy’s jack or king?

West has shown up with nine points in clubs, but did not open the bidding. So, he cannot have the spade ace; South should play dummy’s jack.

How could West know that the third club will not cash? At trick one, East discourages with the three.

Then he gives remaining count with the four. But even if West shifts to a heart at trick three, declarer should draw trumps ending in the dummy and play the club 10. It would take a lot of courage for East to play low while holding the queen; also, he probably would have encouraged at trick one if he had the club queen.

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com LAKE FOREST – Ryan Pace said that if you are convinced about a player, “you go get him,” on the eve of the NFL draft. The second-year general manager had that for Georgia’s Leonard Floyd, and navigated the Bears through their first trade up in the first round in 20 years to select the outside linebacker ninth overall.

“We said all along we wanted to improve the athleticism and speed on our defense, and we’ve definitely done that with Leonard Floyd,” Pace said Thursday night. “This guy lines up all over the field for Georgia. We see him as an outside linebacker on our defense. He brings great athleticism for a guy that tall with that kind of length. He brings some juice to our defense that we need and will definitely help our pass rush.”

The Bears traded their 106th overall pick – one of two fourth-rounders – to the Buccaneers to move up to ninth to take Floyd, the 6-foot-6, 244-pounder who ran a 4.6 40-yard dash at the combine, which was fifth-best among linebackers. His vertical jump was second-best at his position and his broad jump ranked third.

Floyd was second-team All-Southeast Conference last season with 10.5 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks.

“They’re definitely going to see a AP file photo lot of speed,” Floyd said of what Bears Georgia linebacker Leonard Floyd plays against Vanderbilt in the first half Sept. 12 in fans will see from him.

Nashville, Tenn. The Bears took Floyd with the ninth pick in the 2016 NFL Draft on Thursday after trading up two spots in a deal with Tampa Bay.

See BEARS, page 9

Plenty of upside selecting OLB Floyd So here’s what we learned about Bears general manager Ryan Pace in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft.

With his high, find-me-a-playmaker picks, he is going to draft the best athlete available rather than the best football player available.

Pace has used two top-10 picks on Kevin White and Leonard Leonard Floyd Floyd.

Rare size for their positions? Both players check that box. Great speed for their positions and for guys their

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush size, check it off for both again. Extremely high ceilings? Yes, both White and Floyd meet that criteria, too.

Outstanding college production that suggests they’ll be ready to go on Day 1? No, not so much.

Pace selected White knowing he had only run a small portion of the route tree NFL receivers need to be exceptional at with the conviction

he’ll learn the rest.

I am not suggesting we should be down on White at all, but the fact is the Bears drafted him based on what they hope he can do, not what they know he can do.

Floyd played both outside and inside linebacker at Georgia and was very good, but his production was not exceptional and he will have to learn the outside rush linebacker spot with the Bears, prove he can stand up against the run and drop into coverage.

See ARKUSH, page 9

OUTDOORS

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley photogrammetric technology. That won’t happen here because the technique is astronomically expensive and time consuming.

People have asked if the fish could be a possible record.

There are no records kept for fish on particular bodies of water, for those who inquired if this beast was the largest ever caught on the Fox River.

Nick Wechet As far as a record in Illinois, a fish has to be killed to be eligible for record status. There are no records for catch-and-release.

The current muskie record is a 38-pound, 8-ounce behemoth taken April 20, 2002, on the Kaskaskia River in Shelby County below the dam at Lake Shelbyville. The previous four record fish all came from Shabbona Lake south of DeKalb.

I think Wechet’s story will have people heading down to the banks

of the Fox in droves in search of bug muskies. Is that a good plan? I put the question to Hall of Fame angler James Lindner from the Lindner’s Angling Edge TV show.

“There really isn’t a lot of difference between lake muskies and river muskies,” Lindner said. “They position themselves on the prime feeding spots because they are the top-of-theline predator in any water they are found in. They are the most aggressive predator and the first to feed.”

Although rivers can be smaller and certainly move unlike a lake, that has nothing to do with how large the fish can get in each body of water.

“One interesting thing is that river muskies can often be bigger than lake muskies,” Lindner said. “Rivers contain a higher amount of biomass per acre than lakes do. That means there is more food for them to eat and get fat on.

“People get the misconception that you need big water to have big muskies, and that just isn’t true. Up here in Minnesota, we have a couple of rivers that are so small that you can easily flip a lure underhand and reach the other side. Well, these rivers regularly produce fish that go 20 to 25 pounds.

Those are big fish.”

As the season warms up, that also can change the spots where muskie hang out.

“River muskies can live in some exceptionally shallow water in the warmer months,” Lindner said. “In the winter, they’ll run deeper, but remember that they are always close to food. As we warm up, look for muskies in fast water.

“The perfect spot to find a big muskie is in fast water and positioned behind an ambush point where they can sneak up on their prey. Look for front ends of islands and front ends of points sticking out. Look for boulders and big rocks. We call areas such as these ‘current pushes.’ The big muskies will hang out there where the current picks up as it moves past the pushes.”

Then, Lindner went on to explain why Wechet’s muskie might have been where he caught it.

“Winter fishing for muskies can be incredible,” he said. “These fish like to relate to dams, both above the dams and below the dams, during the coldest winter months. They’ll seek out deep holes that are near shallow feeding grounds.”

Bull Valley Dentistry offers experience, technology to correct neuromuscular problems with orthodontics SPONSORED BY

If a person’s bite is out of alignment, the result can be a wealth of problems including difficulty with speech, eating, hearing, breathing, swallowing, chewing and making facial expressions.

You may also suffer from seemingly unrelated problems like migraine and other headaches, tinnitus, movement disorders, sleep disorders, fibromyalgia and allergies.

Dr. John Dano at Bull Valley Dentistry in McHenry is trained and skilled in caring for patients with neuromuscular problems.

Even more, he has personal experience with the pain and frustration that comes from improper diagnosis, because his wife has suffered with this condition herself and found relief through neuromuscular treatment.

Neuromuscular orthodontics goes beyond immediate and visual issues. Malocclusion (crooked bite) and TMD (Temporomandibular

Joint Disorder) are caused by problems that occur within the muscles, nerves, ligaments and bones that make up the head and neck.

Not only will this affect the appearance of your jaw. It can change the shape of your face.

Through neuromuscular orthodontics and advanced technology, Dr. Dano and his team are able to treat symptoms and problems that would otherwise go undetected.

Aiding Dr. Dano’s experience is technology such as a TENS unit. Ultra-Low Frequency Transcutaneous Electrical Neural Stimulations are used to relax the muscles of the face and jaw so Dr. Dano can determine ideal jaw position and the best method of treatment.

Neuromuscular Orthodontics goes beyond “just a pretty smile.” Neuromuscular Orthodontics helps patients’ jaw, muscles, tongue and bite align with their faces better to make the patients comfortable for life.

The news of Nick Wechet’s catch of a giant muskie from the banks of the Fox River on Tuesdaynear the Algonquin Dam has become something he’s heard a lot about over the past two days.

“Aw, man! Everybody at work was congratulating me and patting me on the back,” Wechet said. “I felt like I was a celebrity while I was working at Menard’s that day.”

Steve Kroll, the President of the Fox River Chapter of Muskies, Inc., called Wechet and invited him to join the group.

Wechet did not have a scale or tape measure available to him when he caught the fish. He and friends have estimated the size to be about 50 inches in length. But there is no way to determine the exact size.

It’s a good photo and the fish is held in good perspective, for the most part, but It’s easier to judge whether the fish is held straight and not angled.

That being said, I challenge anyone to be able to hold up a fish this big in a perfect manner.

In the past, the World Record Musky Alliance has done work to scientifically determine the size of old world-record muskies via the use of

Red Raiders win matchup of FVC division leaders

By ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Huntley’s Tiffany Giese doesn’t need a reminder that she can perform in big games, but Thursday’s Fox Valley Conference softball crossover against Prairie Ridge provided just that.

Giese, who was the winning pitcher on last year’s Class 4A regional championship team as a freshman (Huntley’s first postseason title in six seasons), held the normally high-powered Wolves scoreless for the first time all year in a 1-0 win in a matchup of FVC Division leaders.

“It feels good, it makes me confident in myself, because I know they have really good hitters up and down their lineup,” said Giese, who didn’t allow any extra-base hits, walked one and struck out seven in a complete-game shutout.

“It’s like a rivalry, because we’re both on top right now.”

Both teams enter the second half of conference play leading their division: Huntley (12-5) in the FVC Valley at 4-0, and Prairie Ridge (143) in the FVC Fox at 5-0.

The Wolves, who came in as winners in 11 of their past 12 games, finished with six singles against Giese. Only three base runners reached second.

Senior Jessica Shields accounted for the game’s only run, leading off the bottom of the first inning with an infield single, and stealing second and third.

Prairie Ridge catcher Alex Johnson nearly threw Shields out at third, but the ball was dropped.

After a groundout to second, Rylie Porretto drove Shields in on a slow comebacker to Wolves pitcher Hailey Baker, who thought about throwing home as Shields broke on contact.

Instead, she took the sure out at first. Baker, a junior, dropped to 12-3 on the year, but matched Giese pitch for pitch. She allowed just four hits in six innings with three strikeouts and no walks.

“Two good pitchers going at it, and two good teams,” Wolves coach Mike Buck said. “We had chances,

(Giese) was changing speeds against us, and did a nice job of that. Give both pitchers credit, they pitched a [heck] of a game.”

Prairie Ridge’s best chance to score came in the sixth, following a one-out walk to Kaleigh O’Brien and a single by Kylie Leverenz, who went 2 for 3. Giese struck out the next batter looking, and Johnson lined out to right field to end the threat.

“Tiffany (Giese) kept us in this game, that’s a big hitting team.

They have some power deep,” Huntley coach Mark Petryniec said. “They got some runners on, and she got us out of every jam.”

After a 0-3 start to the season, the Raiders have gone 12-2. They resume FVC Valley play Tuesday against Dundee-Crown.

“We just really came together as a team, and that’s the most important thing,” Porretto said.

“We’re all playing for each other now, and that’s the biggest thing that we didn’t have in the beginning (of the season). We just weren’t all bonded together as a team.”

Thursday started with the conclusion of Monday’s game that was postponed because of weather in the bottom of the fourth inning. South added three runs in the fourth without a hit.

The Gators took advantage of three walks and two wild pitches to increase the lead and go on to the victory.

Thursday was important for the Gators to get back on track after losing back-to-back conference games to Dundee-Crown.

“Tyler (Carlson) did a great job on the mound keeping their hitters off balance today,” Gators coach Brian Bogda said. “On offense, we did a better job executing and took advantage of some mistakes.”

Trojans’ Schmidt dominates Chargers Left-handed ace tosses two-hitter in FVC Valley win

Another left-handed ace named Danny grabbed all the attention Thursday. Cary-Grove’s Danny Schmidt dominated D-C with a two-hitter in the Trojans’ 11-0 five-inning victory in a Fox Valley Conference Valley Division baseball game.

Cary-Grove outfielder Quinn Celske watches his bunt roll away in the second inning Thursday in Cary. The Trojans shut out the Chargers, 11-0, in five innings.

• TROJANS-CHARGERS

Continued from page 6

“He’s a great pitcher, we had a lot of good at-bats as a team, strung them together,” Trojans right fielder Matt McCumber said. “All week, we’ve been working on the outside pitch and I felt like we hit the ball really nice to the right side. We kept the momentum going throughout the whole game and pulled out a nice win,.”

The first six batters in the second reached base on Denz (5-2) with two hits, two errors, a walk and a hit batsman. Collin Walsh singled in a run, the Trojans scored on a double steal, a bases-loaded hit by pitch and McCumber’s two-run double.

“We took a better approach as far as Denz liking to work the outer half,” Trojans coach Don Sutherland said.

“We didn’t get much of a practice yesterday because it was raining, but we did work on hitting the baseball the

other way and it paid off.”

Schmidt avoided potential trouble with the game still in question in the fourth inning when Scott Wojcik reached on an infield hit and Erik Hedmark and Matt Wiechmann each reached on walks. Schmidt got Carson Balcer on a pop-up and then Jonathan Mayes on a ground ball. Second baseman Dom Calamari charged that ball and threw on the run for the out.

C-G tacked on six more runs in the bottom of the fourth and Schmidt struck out three pinch hitters in the fifth on 12 pitches.

D-C (12-6, 7-1) saw its five-game winning streak stopped and suffered its first FVC loss.

“Today wasn’t one of those days when we were able to execute,” Chargers coach Jon Anderson said. “That’s a big part of it. That’s high school baseball, some days your team’s going to execute, some days they’re not. But the beautiful thing is tomorrow’s a new day, and it’s 0-0.”

NFL DRAFT: BEARS

By taking outside linebacker Leonard Floyd with the ninth overall pick, the Bears enter Round 2 with needs remaining on the defensive line, in the secondary and at tight end, among others.

The Bears have the 41st overall pick – the 10th pick of Round 2 – and the ninth pick of the third round, 72nd overall, on the second day of the draft. The Bears will have considerations to make at quarterback (Connor Cook, Dak Prescott), running back (Kenneth Dixon, Devontae Booker) on Friday night, too, but here are potential targets for Ryan Pace at other positions of need:

LINEBACKERS

DEFENSIVE LINEMEN

Alabama DT A’Shawn Robinson: A popular pick mocked to the Bears at No. 11, Robinson dropped out of the first round. He’s a monster of a man at 6-foot4, 307 pounds and can stop the run, but he doesn’t necessarily possess the speed and athleticism to get after the passer that teams seek.

Clemson DE Kevin Dodd: A one-year wonder of a pass rusher at Clemson, Dodd broke out last season off the edge. He has the frame to carry more weight to play five-technique and good length for the position.

Mississippi State DT Chris Jones: Considered by some to be an ascending or boom-or-bust prospect, depending on the scouting report, Jones has great length (6-53/4), power and quickness, but wasn’t incredibly productive in the backfield last year with 2.5 sacks.

Illinois DE Jihad Ward: Great length for the five-technique position (6-5), Ward has seen his stock rise since the college season ended, starting with his

performance at the Senior Bowl. He’s a raw prospect.

Penn State DT Austin Johnson: Versatile enough to play anywhere along the interior of the defensive line, Johnson can rush the passer and stop the run in any scheme.

Alabama DT Jarran Reed: There was a report the Bears had high interest in Reed, who played alongside Robinson on the Tide’s defensive line but is more of a pure run-plugger at a hair short of 6-3.

Florida DT Jonathan Bullard: Possibly better in a 4-3 than a 3-4, Bullard has long arms and a lot of power and quickness, but isn’t known for his pass rush.

Scouting reports question his strength and abilities against the run. Floyd said he wants to improve his power in the pass rush when he gets to Chicago, and Pace explained how Floyd’s length helps against bigger offensive linemen.

“One thing I like, what he does is that he’s got such great length that guys don’t get into his body. When you see him playing the run on the edge of the defense, he uses his hands really well and he plays with such great separation that it’s hard for guys to get into him. I think that helps

SAFETIES

• ARKUSH

Ohio State S Vonn Bell: A strong cover safety, Bell is better against the pass than the run without ideal size, but the Bears need help at safety in terms of coverage.

Boise State S Darian Thompson: Great size (just under 6-2), Thompson has good ball skills and awareness. He impressed at the Senior Bowl.

CORNERBACKS

Northern Iowa CB Deiondre’ Hall: Has the length that Vic Fangio prefers out of his cornerbacks and showed good ball skills with 13 picks in college.

Southeastern Louisiana CB Harlan Miller: Another small school player with good production (11 career interceptions), has concerns about strength and agility.

Virginia Tech CB Kendall Fuller: Kyle’s brother. Had his college career come to an end with a knee injury, but he’s got good length and can play the ball well.

TIGHT ENDS

Arkansas TE Hunter Henry: Considered the best tight end in the draft, Henry is a dual threat as a receiver and blocker, but better catching the ball with good route running and abilities in the open field.

Ohio State TE Nick Vannett: Has the ideal size (6-6, 257 pounds) and athleticism to be a productive tight end in the NFL but will need to improve his blocking.

him a lot, even though he’s a little thinner framed.”

Coach John Fox is seeking a situational pass rusher to help the Bears’ sub package, and that’s where Floyd can help.

The Bears had the fourth-worst defense on third down in the NFL last season and were 22nd in the league with 35 sacks. “[Fox has] been pounding the table to add these kind of guys for a while, and we talk during the season: ‘Hey, Ryan, we gotta get off the field on third down, we gotta get off the field on third down,’ ” Pace said.

“We needed guys to help us in that area and this is the type of player that can help that, add a major pass rush threat to our defense.”

UCLA LB Myles Jack: With two inside linebackers added in free agency and Floyd drafted ninth overall, the Bears’ need at linebacker is pretty low, but if they haven’t ruled Jack out because of his knee situation, the Bears would certainly have to consider a blue-chip talent at No. 41 if he’s still there. Jack has fantastic athleticism and speed and could even be a hybird linebacker/safety.

NCAA scraps ban on satellite camps; recruiting under study

The NCAA Division I Board of Directors scrapped a proposed ban on satellite camps Thursday, rebuffing a request from powerhouse conferences in the South and clearing the way for coaches to hold and work at clinics far from their campuses this summer.

The decision won’t end the debate that centered on whether the camps are just another recruiting tool: The board also asked the Division I Council to conduct a broad assessment of the entire college football recruiting model in coming months, and that could bring modifications to how the camps are run and who can take part.

Man indicted in fatal shooting of ex-Saints player

NEW ORLEANS – A business owner and semiprofessional football player was indicted Thursday on a second-degree murder charge in the shooting death of retired New Orleans Saints’ defensive end Will Smith.

Cardell Hayes also was indicted on a charge of attempted second-degree murder because police said he wounded Smith’s wife in the shooting. Hayes and Smith got into an argument after Hayes’s Hummer hit Smith’s Mercedes SUV from behind on April 9, police said. Smith’s wife was in the passenger seat at the time.

– Wire reports hesitation. “I talked to a few people who told me that I should have had it mounted, but I don’t agree. You don’t eat muskies either. Putting it back for someone else to catch was the right thing to do.

“I’m heading out for turkey hunting this weekend, and then I’ll be back on the Fox River chasing catfish when I get back. I’ll send you a picture if I catch a monster!”

Danks: ‘I got in the way of something special tonight’

of his deal, and the Sox’s torrid start has raised the stakes. If there are better options at Triple-A Charlotte (righthander Miguel Gonzalez was given a spot start Monday, and Jacob Turner has pitched to a 2.49 ERA in four starts to name two), you can be sure the Sox are considering them.

Manager Robin Ventura was noncommittal on whether a change is in the works, saying only, “Right now, we’re trying to make him better and we’re going to continue to work at that so he can help us.’’

Danks (0-4, 7.25) is 0-7 in his past seven starts going back to last season, and has stood out like a sore thumb behind Chris Sale, Jose Quintana, Carlos Rodon and Mat Latos in the starting rotation.

“They’re dealing,” Danks said.

“There are 24 guys in here that are setting the world on fire. That’s probably the most disappointing part of it. Shoot, we were hot and we still are. But I got in the way of something special tonight.”

CHICAGO – The kind of things Jake Arrieta has been able to do from a pitcher’s mound in the past 10 months have stretched the bounds of plausibility and credibility to such degrees that he spent much of the past week addressing steroid speculation from rival players and talk-show screaming heads.

So when his Superman pitching act took on a more Clark Kent appearance Thursday on the heels of throwing a second no-hitter in eight months, it seemed almost newsworthy when catcher David Ross pointed out: “He is human.”

To be clear, Arrieta’s version of Clark Kent throws 94 mph with diving breaking stuff.

And the National League’s reigning Cy Young winner allowed only one run and earned his fifth victory of the season in Thursday’s 7-2 win over the Brewers at Wrigley Field.

But that one run, which scored with two out in the fifth, was the first he gave up in a regular-season game at Wrigley Field since July 25 – the last time he lost a regular-season game. His 52 2/3-inning home scoreless streak is a franchise record and second in major league history (post 1900) only to Ray Herbert of the White Sox (54 in 1962-63).

Thanks to a “slightly erratic” sinker

and 31-pitch first inning, Arrieta also saw his franchise-record streak of 24 consecutive quality starts snapped two short of Bob Gibson’s five-decade-old record. He was pulled from the game after five innings with his pitch count at 92 on a blustery, 45-degree afternoon.

“It wasn’t really worth it,” manager Joe Maddon said of the thought of leaving him in the game to hit in the bottom of the fifth with the Cubs leading 5-1.

“Different game? Like 1-0, 0-0? Probably, yeah.

“I saw 92 pitches,” Jake Arrieta Maddon added. “I saw Jake Arrieta. I saw the Cubs trying to win a World Series. I saw the next five years of his career. I know his kids really well.

All that stuff matters much more than breaking Gibson’s record right there.”

That didn’t mean Arrieta (5-0) wanted to leave the game at that point. There was a brief discussion with the manager.

“In this position last year, I might have been a little more frustrated with that decision,” said Arrieta, who then cited the weather, extra days between starts (one caused by Wednesday’s rainout) and 92-pitch grind. “It is the right way to go, and, obviously, our most important ballgames are still ahead of us.”

Even on this Kryptonite-tinged day, Arrieta allowed only two hits – only one until he was two outs deep in the fifth.

That one quickly put to rest any thoughts of matching Johnny Vander Meer’s feat of back-to-back no-hitters as Jonathan Villar led off the game with a broken-bat flare over the left side of the infield for a single.

“He got the ‘W,’ he’s 5-0, and I don’t think anybody’s worried about it around here,” said Ross, whose career-defying start included his second homer of the season, a Waveland Avenue shot leading off the second.

Ross, by the way, hit one homer all of last season. He added a walk in the sixth – one of a season-high 11 for the Cubs’ lineup – before being lifted for pinch-hitter Jason Hammel (seriously) in the eighth.

Arrieta, who played catch inside Wednesday night to help compensate for going six days between starts, didn’t truly struggle by most standards.

“It wasn’t sharp, but we got the job done,” said Arrieta, who matched Rick Sutcliffe’s 1984-85 franchise record by winning his 16th consecutive decision (0.58 ERA in that 17-start span).

The Cubs have won his past 18 regular-season starts, another franchise record. And he still is 21-1 with a 0.89 ERA in his past 25 starts.

“Just because I gave up a run or the streak ended doesn’t mean I’m going to put a whole lot of thought into it right now,” he said. “It had to end at some point. But we’ll try and start another one.”

BALTIMORE – The White Sox’s sixgame winning streak came to a booming halt Thursday when the Baltimore Orioles pounced on struggling left-hander John Danks early and breezed to a 10-2 victory at Camden Yards.

The Sox had taken the American League by storm, coming off series sweeps of two 2015 playoff teams, the Texas Rangers and Toronto Blue Jays, to build an AL-best 16-6 record, but if you expected a “can’t win them all” shrug over this one, think again. Even though it’s early, they know it’s a time to make hay.

“It’s early in the year, so what,” said third baseman Todd Frazier, whose two-run homer in the first against righthander Tyler Wilson seemed to set a good tone for a possible seventh straight win. “We’re separating right now. You want to not separate? When do you not want to separate from other teams?”

It seems early for scoreboard watching, but Frazier knows wins now count as much as they do in August and September.

“Let’s get it now, let’s get some separation so when that time does come when we’re struggling – and it will come – we’re still on top because we have that separation,” Frazier said before the game when the Sox were still buzzing having won eight of their previous nine games. “I believe in that 100 percent.”

When Danks was in the fourth year of his five-year, $65 million contract last season, there wasn’t much harm in having him do his part as a serviceable fifth starter. But now he’s in the final year
