A lot of husbands hate painting. I love it. Give me a Purdy 2-inch XL angled sash brush and an old, faded exterior wall and I’m your guy.

I could possibly be the man-standard for the husband who gleefully accepts painting projects from his wife. And my services never cost her anything … It’s always on the house. Literally.

Now, that being said, I do not mean to imply that I like the preparation part of the job, that is, the hand-scraping part. I think this step of the process was invented by some Spartan painter who sought out the most laborious and onerous possible way to prepare a surface for painting. Plus, he probably did it with one arm tightly bound to his back with weather-hardened leather banding and forsook wearing his Ray-Bans on the sunny side of the house.

I, on the other hand, would like to prepare a house for painting like an Athenian: Seeking the ultimate truth about deteriorated colored wood and wearing fashionable multi-chromatic Nike painter’s sneakers.

So I began a crusade to find a better way to convince the old, peeling paint to release its tenacious woody grip. And, as usual, my wife came to the rescue. It all started when I announced my plans to paint our house. Of course, my wife was all in favor of it, but there was a caveat …

“Michael, I’d like you to first read this article in Old House Journal about how to paint a house.”

“But, Honey, I’ve been painting houses for decades.”

“That’s exactly my point, Michael.”

“Huh?” Well, I hemmed and hawed until I finally sat down and read the article. And my reluctance was confirmed; it was the same old prepare the surface, apply the paint, clean the brush … ladi-da-di-da. You don’t need to be an Aristotelian paint-slinger to know that stuff.

But then I saw an accompanying photo that shook my brushes to their bristles. There was a guy with some kind of power tool that was instant-

WHERE IT’S AT

ly removing layers and layers of paint from a wall, right to the bare wood. The article said the tool was called the “Paint Shaver Pro,” and … Opa! Here was the paint-removing modern-day equivalent of Archimedes’ lever … give me a ladder to stand on and I will scrape the earth!

I went online to the tool’s site and saw videos of it in action. It was incredible! I felt like I just got hit on the head with an Ionian column. All that was left was to order one …

“Honey, I want to buy something.”

“You’re not on eBay, are you?”

“No, it’s for removing the old paint.”

“A new kind of scraper?”

“Yep … can I get it?”

“If you think it will work, sounds fine.”

Boom! Order confirmed and processed. Later in the week my $799 plus tax and shipping Paint Shaver Pro arrived. I got things set up for a demonstration for my wife …

“Honey, step back and get ready to be impressed …”

I flipped on the tool, pressed it gently to the wood and slid it along the siding. The paint disappeared under the instrument, leaving behind the gleaming wood in its buck-naked lumberous glory.

“Well, honey what do you think?”

“Michael, it’s amazing!”

I held my breath. “Do you think it is $799 amazing?”

“No, but you certainly are $799 amazing!”

Geesh, the last time she called me amazing was when I accidentally flushed her electric toothbrush down the toilet. But then I was only $49.99 amazing.

So now I am ready to battle peeled, brittle, cemented old paint with my new weapon. For I am Mikario, the Athenian artisan paint-pillager.

Come to me, all you Spartan scrapers, stand and gaze as your paint turns to dust and flies towards the winds of oblivion and into my 12-gallon HEPA-filtered RIGID shop vac.

4-YEAR-OLD’S DREAMS COME TRUE

Make-A-Wish, Toys R Us help make CL boy’s birthday celebration special

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Julio Lara-Perez has never had a birthday party.

This year, the 4-year-old Crystal Lake resident gets two.

As part of the Make-A-Wish Foundation’s World Wish Day on Friday, Julio was treated to a birthday party at Toys R Us in Algonquin, where it was revealed that his wish of having a birthday party his entire family could attend on the Fourth of July would come true.

Julio has required nearly constant medical care since his premature birth. An infection he suffered during his time in the neonatal intensive care

“It filled me up with so much joy to see him smile. I know he’s very social and loves people and balloons, and I know this would just make his smile beam.”

Veronica Patino-Morales One of Julio’s wishmakers

unit caused him to lose 80 percent of his large intestines, said his mother, Maria Lara, through an interpreter.

While he’s working on his speech, Julio has other ways of communicating that made it clear to those close to him he loved Friday’s celebration.

A smile came across Julio’s face as he was lifted from a limo and greeted

by a towering Geoffrey mascot. He was ushered into the store and set in his plush chair, which was wheeled to a table covered in Play-Doh and Minion toys.

“I have a lot of love for him,” Lara said through an interpreter. “I saw a lot of love and joy on his face.”

About seven of Julio’s friends and

cousins attended the party, along with parents, his wishmakers and his therapists. They sang “Happy Birthday” and cheered in a decorated section of the store complete with banners, balloons and cake. With music booming over the chatter, a spread of candy, cupcakes and other food waited for the children to eat.

People took photos and played with Julio, who stayed quiet but entertained during the festivities.

Veronica Patino-Morales, one of Julio’s wishmakers who was in the limo with the family on the ride to the store, said it was incredible to watch his reaction to the party.

Woman made up abandoned puppy in a pillowcase story, police say

By ALLISON GOODRICH

agoodrich@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Police said a story about a puppy, since dubbed Woodstock, being found on the side of the road after being abandoned turned out to be just that – a story.

An animal cruelty investigation by the Woodstock Police Department has found that Woodstock was not abandoned in a pillowcase that was ducttaped shut, but rather given to a woman who then concocted the whole story, Police Chief Robert Lowen said.

Hope A. Sanchez, 38, of 407 Woodbine Lane in Fox River Grove, now Hope A. faces a felonious disor- Sanchez derly conduct charge for allegedly filing or causing the filing of a false police report, police said.

The investigation, which began after the abandonment incident was reported last week, took police to a Woodstock apartment where nine other puppies were found, along with the puppies’ mother, according to a department news release.

The two people at the apartment told police one of the 10 puppies was given to a family counselor, Sanchez, who

Police said Sanchez apparently took the puppy to an MCC class and told students the made-up story.

“So [it is believed] Sanchez takes it home and for one reason or another can’t keep the puppy at her house,” Lowen said. “So she takes the puppy to the class she teaches and concocts this story that while she was riding her motorcycle, she saw a pillowcase moving and rescued a puppy.”

A student in Sanchez’s class called Hoof Woof & Meow Animal Rescue, where all 10 puppies are being kept, and then called the Woodstock Police Department. The puppies were relocated to the shelter while the mother, said to be a “therapeutic service dog” for one of the residents of the apartment, was left at the residence. Police said there was no evidence she was in immediate danger.

After police spoke to Sanchez on Wednesday and conferred with the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office on charges, Sanchez on Friday turned herself into Woodstock detecPhoto provided tives.

Puppy’s 9 siblings join him in animal shelter care Puppies will be available for adoption at end of May

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The puppy reportedly discovered in a duct-taped pillowcase near Route 14 last week is not an only child.

Woodstock the puppy has nine brothers and sisters, all of which are in the care of a foster home sponsored by Hoof Woof & Meow Animal Rescue in Gilberts after the unidentified owner relinquished them to McHenry County Animal Control.

“The whole team was floating on cloud nine knowing these puppies were safe,” said Kellie Reed, the rescue’s fos-

ter and intake coordinator. “It’s been a huge concern of ours what happened to the rest of the litter. You usually don’t have just one puppy.”

On Friday, Woodstock Police Chief Robert Lowen said a Fox River Grove woman concocted the whole story about finding the puppy abandoned in a pillowcase that was duct-taped shut along Route 14. She has been charged with felonious disorderly conduct for allegedly filing or causing the filing of a false police report.

Reed said the puppies were born March 27, meaning Woodstock was only 3 weeks old when he was dumped. She identified the puppies’ mom as a beagle and Boston terrier mix and the dad as a beagle and boxer mix.

McHenry County Department of Health spokeswoman Keri Zaleski said animal control assisted the Woodstock

Police Department in accepting the puppies. The litter, which Zaleski said was in good condition, was then turned over to Hoof Woof & Meow because the agency has lactating mothers.

Reed said the puppies will be blended with other litters. Each puppy from the litter of four females and six males has been named after a Charlie Brown character, she added.

Reed said the rescue has received hundreds of phone calls and 40 applications for Woodstock.

The puppies will be available for adoption at the end of May. In the meantime, the agency is in need of puppy formula, puppy pads, Taste of the Wild puppy kibble and toys. Donations can be dropped off at Four Legs Pets, 133 E. Higgins Road, Gilberts. Monetary donations can be made at gofundme.com/woodstockandfriend.

McHenry County Democratic State’s Attorney candidate Jim Harrison returns to his law office Friday in Woodstock.

Lawyer touts experience in state’s attorney race

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com Woodstock-based attorney Jim Harrison says his “vast and wide” experience is what sets he and his opponent apart in the race for McHenry County state’s attorney.

Harrison was chosen by the county’s Democratic Party to face Republican Patrick Kenneally for McHenry County state’s attorney. Kenneally defeated former assistant state’s attorney Dan Regna in the March Republican primary. The winner in November will succeed current State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi.

Harrison worked as a deputy sheriff in the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office for eight years in the 1980s before leaving his position to attend law school.

The lifelong McHenry County resident opened his practice in Woodstock in 1991 and later was appointed a special assistant state’s attorney.

He also is an adjunct professor at the John Marshall Law School in Chicago, where he teaches employment law, client discrimination and civil rights.

Harrison unsuccessfully ran as an independent against Republican Bill Prim for McHenry County sheriff in 2014.

Harrison said his background in law enforcement and a more than two decade career practicing law has provided him with the necessary skills to be the best candidate for state’s attorney.

“You need a big skill set to handle that kind of responsibility if you’re going to do the job,” he said. “The more experience you have, the better it is for county govJim Harrison ernment.”

If elected, Harrison said one of his biggest goals is to make sure the state’s attorney’s office is as fair and transparent as possible – something he isn’t seeing with the Pat Kenneally current administration.

Harrison said he wants to better show and communicate the process of the law to the public so people are less likely to be afraid of it.

“The way that you do that is by making smart choices, by making good judgment and by researching instead of reacting,” he said.

Harrison said he also would like to substantially reduce the use of grand

jury proceedings and instead rely more on preliminary hearings when prosecuting a case.

A grand jury is made up of members of the public who listen to evidence and decide whether or not the defendant should be charged with a crime. A preliminary hearing is a proceeding after a criminal complaint has been filed by a prosecutor to determine where there is enough evidence to require the defendant to stand trial.

He said he believes grand jury proceedings create a “closed-door environment” and relying more on preliminary hearings would give the authority back to police officers.

“It would be a much more efficient way of moving through the cases,” Harrison said.

Harrison’s priorities also include addressing the county’s heroin and opioid epidemic by “dealing seriously with drugs that kill people and ruin people.”

In order to do that, he said there also needs to be a renewed education in the schools on the effects of drug use.

“We need to continue that education through the years they are growing up, not just wait to arrest them and then throw them into the legal system,” he said.

WOODSTOCK – McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Kyle Mandernack didn’t expect to save a life when he started his shift on March 21.

Members of the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office were investigating a theft earlier that day when officers initially apprehended the suspect before he fled on foot and got away for a short period of time, Mandernack said. The man was later found and arrested, and Mandernack was asked to take him to the McHenry County Correctional Facility so he could be processed.

Mandernack said after leaving Crystal Lake with the suspect en route to the jail around 2:40 p.m., he noticed something was wrong. He said the man was quiet and lethargic. Mandernack initially thought his general exhaustion was because he ran from police but those thoughts shifted after further discussion, he said.

After they arrived at the jail, the deputy said the man told him that he swallowed five bags of heroin before his arrest. Mandernack immediately called for medical rescue and alerted corrections’ officers who called for the

signs of improvement and an ambulance arrived on the scene to take him to the hospital. The man made a full recovery, according to the sheriff’s office.

Mandernack received the Lifesaving Award on April 22 from McHenry County Sheriff Bill Prim in recognition of his actions. Mandernack said he appreciated the recognition and said it was just part of his everyday job.

“Fundamentally, in my opinion, police are supposed to help people,” he said. “Whether that means taking bad guys to jail, helping someone with directions or responding as a first responder in a medical emergency before the professionals get there, that’s what we’re supposed to do.”

Mandernack, who also is a trained EMT, said it was the first time he had administered Narcan, and was glad the sheriff’s office had implemented that program because he didn’t know whether the man would have made it if not for the medication.

“Kyle’s quick thinking saved a person’s life that day. We are extremely proud of him just as we are all of the men and women of the sheriff’s office serving our county on a daily basis,” Sheriff Bill Prim said in a statement.

Maria Lara holds her son Julio Lara-Perez’s hand as they mold Play-Doh during a party as part of the Make-A-Wish Foundation’s World Wish Day on Friday at Toys R Us in Algonquin.

• BIRTHDAY

Continued from page A3 “It filled me up with so much joy to see him smile,” Patino-Morales said.

“I know he’s very social and loves people and balloons, and I know this would just make his smile beam.”

On top of learning he will have a birthday party at Pump It Up in Crystal Lake over the summer, Julio received some gifts from Toys R Us staff.

Store manager Mark O’Hanian placed a crown on Julio’s head and gave him a plush Geoffrey toy, a book and a $250 gift card to the store.

Julio might be quiet, but he’s an attentive listener who loves music, said his speech therapist Elizabeth Wlodzimierski and occupational therapist Stephanie Olson. They are among the handful of therapists who work with Julio through Crystal Lake Elementary School District 47.

They usually call their one day a week with the happy 4-year-old “Ju-

As Julio’s smile caught the attention of the crowd, Olson and Wlodzimierski pointed to a similar look on his mother’s face. They said Friday was just as much a celebration for Lara as it was for Julio.

“His mom is an amazing person,” Olson said. “She does everything for him. She works really hard. She does everything we say. So for her to have this happen is very special for her.”

Sen. Conrad Burns, R-Mont., watches returns at a victory party Nov. 7, 2006 in Billings, Mont. serve 31 radio and TV stations across Montana and Wyoming, offering agricultural news to rural areas.

He sold the network in 1985 and – capitalizing on his name recognition – made his first foray into politics a year later, when he was elected commissioner for Yellowstone County in south-central Montana.

Before his first term was completed, Burns took on incumbent U.S. Sen. John Melcher, a two-term Democrat described by Burns opponent as “a liberal who is soft on drugs, soft on defense and very high on social programs.”

At the age of 53, he won election to the Senate by a 3-percentage-point margin. He rose to be one of the most influential positions in Washington with his seat on the Appropriations committee, serving as chairman of the Interior subcommittee.

Burns became a strong advocate for increased domestic energy production and expanded development of natural resources. But even before his first term was over, Burns’ loose-talking ways – once credited with earning him favor among Montana’s rural electorate – landed him in trouble.

ABA team owner and envied dealmaker Ozzie Silna dies

By ANDREW DALTON The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES – Ozzie Silna, who turned a fading American Basketball Association franchise into a four-decade windfall of nearly $800 million from the NBA in what’s commonly called the greatest deal in sports history, has died at age 83.

Silna’s younger brother and Spirits of St. Louis co-owner Daniel Silna told The Associated Press that his brother’s funeral was held Thursday. Ozzie Silna died Tuesday at a Los Angeles hospital after a brief illness, his brother said.

The two brothers made their millions without having to pay players, build arenas or hire coaches. They only had to sit back and cash the checks.

Banking on an eventual ABA-NBA merger, they bought the failing Carolina Cougars of the ABA in 1974 for about $1 million and promptly moved the team to St. Louis, then the biggest American city without a pro basketball team.

Ozzie Silna poses for a photo May 23, 2006 at his home in Malibu, Calif.

After the 1975-76 season the NBA agreed to a merger, accepting four of the six remaining teams into the league. The Denver Nuggets, Indiana Pacers, New Jersey Nets and San An-

tonio Spurs got in. The Kentucky Colonels, and the Spirits, did not.

As part of a concept he and attorney Donald Schupak dreamed up months earlier, Ozzie Silna negotiated to re-

ceive four-sevenths of a share of the NBA’s annual TV revenue for as long as the NBA was around.

The agreement was drawn up to be as broadly defined and open-ended as possible. It worked.

At the time, it was worth about $300,000 a year. But as the NBA and its popularity grew, the annual checks grew into the tens of millions.

“You’ve got to be lucky in a lot of this stuff,” Ozzie Silna told The Associated Press in a 2006 interview. “But you’ve got to see the stuff, too. If it’s there, and you don’t see it, you don’t have a chance to get lucky.”

By 2014 the brothers had netted nearly $300 million from the deal. By that time, the NBA was challenging the arrangement in court.

That year they settled with the league in a deal that paid them $500 million and kept a much smaller stream of money coming in, according to the New York Times, which reported Silna’s death Wednesday along with TMZ Sports.

HELENA, Mont. – Former Montana Sen. Conrad Burns, a former cattle auctioneer whose folksy demeanor and political acumen earned him three terms and the bitter disdain of his opponents, died Thursday. He was 81.

Burns died of natural causes at his home in Billings, Montana Republican Party Executive Director Jeff Essmann said.

“He was a colorful figure who loved people, politics and to serve,” Essmann said. “He brought a common-man, common-sense approach to his work in the Senate and returned to his home in Billings when his work was done.”

As a Republican senator, Burns used his influence on the powerful Appropriations committee to set the course on energy development and public lands management across the rural West. But he was ousted from office in 2006 under the specter of scandal after developing close ties to “super-lobbyist” Jack Abramoff, who was later jailed for conspiracy and fraud.

No charges were ever filed against Burns, who dismissed criticism over the affairs as “old political hooey.”

After working as a livestock auctioneer, Burns in 1975 moved into broadcast radio, founding four stations known as the Northern Ag Network. The network eventually grew to

Act of 1991, the senator invited a group of lobbyists to a “slave auction” and later used a racial slur for blacks when relating a conversation he had with a Montana rancher. The resulting furor had little impact on his 1994 campaign, which he won in a landslide.

During the 2000 campaign, the controversy around Montana’s backslapping senator nearly caught up with him. He prevailed by only a thin margin over rancher Brian Schweitzer, who went on to become governor four years later.

By the end of his third term, however, Burns had been affixed with the same Washington-insider label that he had used successfully against Melcher.

His close ties to lobbyist Abramoff lent credence to the accusation, and his bid for a fourth term came up about 3,000 votes short against the president of the Montana Senate, Democrat Jon Tester.

Burns had long cultivated a reputation as being a plain talker, but by the time he left office, his incautious remarks had become legendary. The press catalogued derogatory comments directed at women, Arabs and even out-of-state firefighters who had come to Montana to battle a 2006 blaze near his hometown of Billings.

“He had that fresh approach of just saying what he thought and not being very political,” said Taylor Brown, a friend and fellow Republican who bought the Northern Ag Network from him. “That was probably his biggest weakness in the end. He just said what he thought.”

Ill. weighs aid for students in U.S. illegally

By IVAN MORENO

The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Laura Vivaldo considers herself fortunate among her Illinois college classmates who are in the U.S. illegally and struggle to pay tuition because they don’t qualify for state or federal financial aid.

The 24-year-old Elgin resident has worked full time at a restaurant and grocery store while attending college to help pay her tuition, and she has received help from privately funded scholarships. In all, it will take her eight years to complete her education.

“I actually know of more students from my community college that have either discontinued their education or dropped out,” Vivaldo said.

A measure pending in the Illinois House would make the state among the few in the country to let immigrant students get financial aid regardless of their legal status. The bill cleared the Senate this month with bipartisan support.

“We’ve given these young men and women already an education. We’ve already invested in them. Why stop at the university level?” said Sen. Iris Martinez, a Chicago Democrat sponsoring the bill.

News from across the state Lawmaker calls for Illinois to revoke Hastert’s pension

CHICAGO – An Illinois state senator is urging the state to strip Dennis Hastert of the taxpayer-funded pension he receives from when he was state legislator.

The former U.S. House Speaker was sentenced to 15 months in prison Wednesday in a hush-money case that revealed accusations he sexually abused teenagers while coaching high school wrestling in Yorkville.

State Sen. Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant sent a letter Thursday to the General Assembly Retirement System calling Hastert a “predator who harmed the lives of innocent students” and urging it to

Martinez is sponsoring legislation that would make Illinois among the few states in the country letting immigrant students get financial aid regardless of their legal status. already give state financial aid to students illegally in the U.S., and 18 states, including Illinois, also allow those students to qualify for in-state tuition.

The proposal is geared toward helping students such as Vivaldo, who was 3 months old when she and her teenage mother moved from the Mexican state

of Puebla to the Chicago suburbs to be with her father.

The privately funded scholarships Vivaldo received have helped her first attend Elgin Community College and now Northern Illinois University, where she is studying political science. But the help, which has ranged

immediately revoke his $28,000-a-year pension.

But Tim Blair, who oversees the system, told The (Aurora) Beacon-News that Hastert won’t lose the pension because his crimes are unrelated to his time as a legislator.

Hastert’s $16,000 teacher’s pension has been canceled. He receives a federal pension.

The expert panel has recommended many of the conditions before to no avail.

Board to review conditions for medical marijuana

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois patients who want to use medical marijuana legally will try again to expand the program to include chronic pain, diabetes, migraine and other health conditions.

Monday’s meeting of the state’s Medical Cannabis Advisory Board could lead to new recommendations, but Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration has twice before rejected the board’s suggestions.

This time, the expert panel will discuss petitions submitted during January.

Fifteen conditions are on the agenda.

Chicago cop was shot when fleeing suspect tossed gun

CHICAGO – Prosecutors said a man charged with shooting a Chicago police officer was attempting to toss away a gun when it discharged and wounded the officer.

The officer was shot in the shoulder while responding Monday to an armed person in the Little Village neighborhood.

Authorities said the wound was not life-threatening.

Prosecutors said Thursday 25-year-old Rafael Martir-Ubiles was fleeing police when he tried to throw a .45-caliber gun onto an apartment building roof. It hit a wall instead and discharged. Another officer continued to chase Martir-Ubiles and arrested him in a gangway.

She said it’s cost her about $15,000 for a year of study at NIU, where she expects to graduate next year.

Critics of the proposed legislation argue students in the country illegally shouldn’t receive a benefit that would otherwise go to U.S. citizens, who also struggle to pay for school.

“I care about people as much as anybody else does,” said Okawville Republican Sen. David Luechtefeld, who voted against the bill. “My concern was that if you voted for it you would have several hundreds of people who were not citizens getting scholarships, but if you do that you would have hundreds of citizens who are not getting those scholarships. It’s a tough call.”

Senate GOP Leader Christine Radogno was among two Republicans who voted for the bill. Catherine Kelly, a spokeswoman for Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner, said the bill was under review.

If the legislation passes, an estimated 1,500 students would benefit. A total of 144,000 students attend Illinois’ fouryear colleges, which would be the only higher-education institutions covered with the bill. No additional state money would be required because the immigrant students would be competing for the same aid as everyone else.

Martir-Ubiles is charged with aggravated battery to a police officer, aggravated assault, resisting arrest and unlawful possession of firearm by a gang member.

A judge ordered him held without bond.

Five baby bison born at grassland preserve

WILMINGTON – For the first time, a national grassland preserve in northeastern Illinois has added to its bison herd through newborns – and not just one or two.

Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie announced that five American bison were born April 23 at the 19,000-acre preserve.

The Daily Journal in Kankakee reported that the preserve said the public is welcome to try to view the bison, although the size of the land they roam could make that difficult.

Midewin added its first bison in October. In all, four bulls and 23 cows were brought to the preserve.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Rule would delay criminal nation, reignited discussions about race relations and led to history questions

WASHINGTON – The Obama administration wants federal agencies to stop asking early questions about some job applicants’ criminal history, part of an effort to help ex-convicts enter the job market and decrease the number of those who end up back in prison.

A rule proposed Friday by the Office of Personnel Management would bar agencies from asking applicants about their criminal and credit history until a conditional offer of employment has been made. The rule, which would piggyback on similar efforts in states and in the private sector, would apply to hiring for the roughly 100,000 competitive service positions the government fills annually. It would not apply to many law enforcement, national security and intelligence posts, officials said.

Republicans make peace with Trump as nominee

By ERICA WERNER

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – They thought it was impossible. Some still fear it. Others can barely believe it. But leading Republicans are beginning to accept the idea that Donald Trump will be their party’s presidential nominee.

In the wake of the businessman’s commanding wins in five Eastern states this week, a growing number of national Republicans and GOP lawmakers on Capitol Hill said Trump has taken on an indisputable air of inevitability. Some argue they should get behind him now and abandon the “Never Trump” efforts still nursed by some establishment Republicans.

Embracing Trump, these Republicans said, may be the GOP’s only hope of blocking Democrat Hillary Clinton in November.

“Donald Trump is going to be our nominee,” Florida Gov. Rick Scott wrote on Facebook this week. “The Republican leaders in Washington did not choose him, but the Republican voters across America did choose him. The voters have spoken.”

“Republicans now need to come together,” Scott wrote, warning that continued opposition to Trump “will be nothing more than a contribution to the Clinton campaign.”

On Capitol Hill, support for Trump has also gotten markedly easier to find.

“I don’t understand. I mean, it’s not ‘Never Trump.’ It’s ‘Never Hillary.’ Never, never, never Hillary. Come on. Wake up and smell the coffee,” said Rep. Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania, who earlier this week cast his ballot for Trump, along with all members of his large family and 57 percent of Republican primary voters in his state.

“I’ve never seen a party attack one of its own candidates with this aggressiveness,” Kelly said of GOP establishment figures who oppose Trump, blaming it on an elitist Washington attitude out of touch with voters.

Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah, a respected senior member of the Senate, previously endorsed Jeb Bush and then Sen. Marco Rubio and said he doesn’t intend to endorse Trump. But Hatch said of Trump, “It looks to me like he’s going to win, and if he does, I’m going to do everything in my power to help him.”

Some leading Republicans have forecast that a Trump candidacy could spell electoral disaster, help Democrats win back control of the Senate and even cost safe Republican seats in the House. They point to Trump’s disparaging comments about women and minorities that have contributed to high unfavorability ratings.

Hatch, along with others, disagreed.

“I think he could be great if he’ll get serious about being president, and I think he will,” Hatch said. “When he gets hit with reality that this is the toughest job in the world, he’s a clever, smart guy who I think will want to be remembered for doing good things, so I have a feeling he can make that transition.”

On Thursday, Trump picked up endorsements from two House committee chairmen: Reps. Bill Shuster of Pennsylvania, who chairs the Transportation Committee, and Jeff Miller of Florida, who chairs Veterans Affairs. He talked foreign policy in a phone call with Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., who heads the Foreign Relations Committee. Corker later was full of compliments about Trump, though he said he had no plans to endorse him.

Clinton gears up for Lawmakers head out with unfinished agenda Trump in fall race

By ANDREW TAYLOR

The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Waves of campaign staffers are being dispatched to battleground states. Advisers are starting to consider locations for a splashy convention rally in Philadelphia. An army of lawyers is scrutinizing more than two dozen possible vice presidential picks.

Although she has yet to clinch the Democratic nomination, Hillary Clinton and her team are taking early steps into a general election campaign.

Aides are working under the assumption that Republican front-runner Donald Trump will be her opponent.

Six months before the presidential election, they’re looking Hillary beyond primary rival Clinton Bernie Sanders and preparing their candidate and party for what may be a hard-fought – and personally ugly – fall campaign.

Starting this week, Clinton campaign employees are heading to battleground states across the country, among them Ohio, Florida and Colorado.

Democrats also are eyeing the possibility of making a run at traditionally Republican-leaning states such as Georgia, North Carolina and Arizona, calculating that Trump’s penchant for controversy could put minority and female voters in play.

“Everybody’s got their game face on,” said Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, who was going to South Dakota on the weekend to campaign for Clinton.

Aides from the primary are getting general election marching orders.

Simone Ward, political director of the

The Associated Press

campaign committee for Senate Democratic races, will run Clinton’s Florida operation. Emmy Ruiz, who led a crucial Nevada primary win for Clinton, will handle Colorado. Mike Vlacich led New Hampshire operations in the primary and will do the same in the fall.

“The sooner you can get up and running the better,” said Dan Pfeiffer, who advised President Barack Obama.

“On the Republican side, Trump has not built anything resembling the sort of field operation it takes to win.”

Plans are also beginning to take shape for a convention that will prominently feature Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Michelle Obama, Bill Clinton and the vice presidential nominee. It’s not clear, however, what role Sanders will have.

Taking a page from Obama’s 2008 convention address at Mile High Stadium in Denver, former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, a close Clinton ally, is urging the campaign to hold a major speech – perhaps even Clinton’s acceptance address – outside Independence Hall, where the Constitution was signed.

Clinton’s campaign has started the internal search for a running mate, although people familiar with the process said that effort is in an early stage.

A team of lawyers is poring through information about a lengthy list of Democrats, among them Labor Secretary Tom Perez, Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown and Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine. Other names mentioned by party insiders include Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Minnesota Sen. Al Franken, New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker and Housing Secretary Julian Castro. No final decision is expected until Republicans hold their convention.

WASHINGTON – Congress headed out of Washington on Friday, accomplishing relatively little in a short work period and missing deadlines on the budget and on helping Puerto Rico with its financial crisis.

It left few clues about how lawmakers, when they return next month, would address must-do items such as finding money to counter the Zika virus and a second, even scarier July 1 deadline for averting a fiscal disaster in cash-strapped Puerto Rico. Democrats called upon House leaders to modify this spring’s three-weeks on, one-week off legislative schedule to keep working, as Puerto Rico hurtles toward a half-billion dollar default Sunday.

“It’s very, very hard to get anything done if you are a drive-by Congress,” said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. “We’re barely here. And these deadlines are coming.” Hours later, however, Democrats joined Republicans in sprinting for the U.S. Capitol’s exits.

Over the past month, the Senate finally passed a major energy bill – the first in nearly a decade – and made progress on providing help for Flint, Michigan, which is grappling with a water contamination crisis from lead pipes. But an effort to revive the moribund process of passing more than $1 trillion worth of annual spending bills ran aground, while talks on a $1 billion-plus measure to fight Zika are looking less promising than previously hoped. An update on Capitol Hill’s unfinished agenda:

Puerto Rico expects multiple lawsuits to be filed shortly after Monday’s anticipated default. The government is expected to keep operating as usual, but economists warn that its access to capital markets will shut down and that eventually this will curtail public services if a debt-restructuring mechanism isn’t approved.

A House bill would create a control board to help manage the island’s $70 billion debt and oversee debt restructuring. But the legislation has stalled in the Natural Resources Committee, as some conservatives and Democrats have objected to the approach.

President Barack Obama’s $1.9 billion request for emergency funding to combat the Zika virus, known to cause grave birth defects, has elicited a lukewarm response Republicans controlling Congress.

The White House has already transferred almost $600 million in previously appropriated money to the Zika fight and would have little choice but to shift more if Congress remains gridlocked. But the administration said new funding is urgently needed to control the mosquitoes that spread the virus, manufacture vaccines once they are developed and produce more accurate testing for Zika.

WASHINGTON – Human error, violations of combat rules and untimely equipment failures led to the mistaken U.S. aerial attack on a charity-run hospital in Afghanistan last fall that killed 42 people, a senior American general said Friday. Investigators called the attack a “disproportional response to a threat that didn’t exist.”

Sixteen military members were given administrative punishments that could stall or end careers, but no one faces a court martial. A senior defense official said one of the disciplined was a two-star general.

The AC-130 gunship, bristling with side-firing cannons and guns, fired on the hospital in the northern city of Kunduz for 30 minutes before the mistake was realized and the attack was halted, Gen. Joseph Votel told a news conference as he released the Pentagon’s final report on the incident. The intended target was an Afghan intelligence agency building about 450 yards away.

No one involved knew the targeted compound was a hospital, Votel said, but investigators concluded the U.S.

in our presence, in the presence of the victims’ families, so they would be satisfied.”

Pharmacist Khalid Ahmad, 24, said those responsible “are criminals, and they must be jailed.” Ahmad still has shrapnel embedded in his waist and cannot move his right leg.

Doctors Without Borders, the international charity organization whose hospital was destroyed, said Friday that it still wants an “independent and impartial” investigation. It said the punishments were inadequate and “out of proportion” to the deaths, injuries and destruction caused by the mistaken attack.

“The lack of meaningful accountability sends a worrying signal to warring parties, and is unlikely to act as a deterrent against future violations of the rules of war,” the organization said.

The Americans who called in and authorized the attack never laid eyes on either the intended target or the hospital, Votel said. He is commander of U.S. Central Command, which is responsible for military operations in the greater Middle East and Afghanistan. At the time of the Kunduz attack he headed U.S. Special Operations Command.

ANOTHER VIEW

What Trump’s victories can’t change

With sweeping wins in five East Coast states Tuesday, Donald Trump socked the forces within the Republican Party that have vowed never to support him. Picking up more than 100 pledged delegates, he brought himself closer to clinching the GOP nomination on the first ballot at July’s Republican National Convention, before most of the gains Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas) has made in the party’s arcane delegate selection process could come into play.

These facts in hand, Trump declared himself the presumptive GOP nominee.

If Trump were anything like a typical candidate, mathematical reality would result in a quick consolidation of the party behind him. In fact, that would have happened weeks ago. Now that the numbers are approaching prohibitive for “Never Trump” Republicans, pressure to rally around Trump will build. The excuses for making peace with the front-runner will

be faulty but numerous – preserving party unity; avoiding a nasty convention fight; beating Hillary Clinton, the likely Democratic nominee. In his Tuesday night victory speech, Trump claimed – as usual without any corroborating details – that Republicans are already calling him seeking to mend fences.

They shouldn’t – because Trump is not a typical candidate. He is a unique threat to the Republican Party and to the country. The party should reject him as a nominee, using any and all legitimate means to do so. Principled Republicans must make a concerted stand in Indiana and California, the two states left to vote that could keep Trump short of the 1,237 delegates he needs to clinch the nomination. As long as there is opportunity to resist his rise, those who recognize what he is must take it. This is not because beating Trump is a likely outcome. It is because, morally,

there is no other option. New math does not change the ethical calculation.

Trump degrades people, serially insulting women, Latinos, Muslims, immigrants, Jews and others. He erodes the discourse, frequently and flagrantly lying about things such as whether “scores” of terrorists have recently entered the United States as migrants - one of numerous false claims he made in a speech on foreign policy Wednesday. He proposes undermining foundational civic institutions such as the free press. He shows contempt for the separation of powers by threatening the speaker of the House. Where his policy agenda is not thin, it is scary, such as his call to ban Muslims from entering the United States.

In short, he should inspire fear that someone so lacking in judgment and restraint could acquire the powers of the presidency.

VIEWS Austin Berg ders. “There was a very strong push to support the union,” Kocourek said of the mandatory half-day training in 2014.

“We had to go. For us it was really frustrating because we had to find someone else to be with our daughter,” she said.

Why was the union pulling parents away from loved ones who need around-the-clock care? The answer is cash.

Per the union’s contract with the state, which expired June 30, 2015, SEIU received a captive audience for a 30-minute membership drive during training.

The SEIU is clearly desperate for new money after a massive loss of revenue over the past two years.

In 2014, the Supreme Court ruled in the case of Harris v. Quinn that the SEIU could not force caregivers to pay money to the union as a condition of receiving payments from the state. Since then, nearly 12,000 Illinois caregivers have stopped paying

the union, and the SEIU has collected $4.4 million less than if dues and fees had stayed constant.

When the SEIU fails to make caregiver interests a top priority, it’s unsurprising that nearly half of caregivers statewide aren’t union members. Teaming up with lawmakers to require family members to put their loved ones in strangers’ hands to attend an in-person training session is just one example of this.

A recent policy change at the state level offers another tragic case study of union politics.

The SEIU has long lobbied the federal government to extend the federal minimum wage and overtime pay to at-home caregivers. It succeeded in 2015 when a federal appeals court upheld labor rule changes that mandate overtime pay for this group.

But the SEIU’s win was a crushing loss for many family caregivers.

In the most fiscally sick state in the country, the ruling left Illinois with little choice but to mandate fewer hours per week for caregivers to avoid costly overtime pay. The change, which the state is in the process of implementing, would force many family members to hire outside help to care for a loved one

when they would rather provide that care themselves.

“They cry out for higher wages and they hurt the families that want no part in this political power play,” Lewis said of the SEIU. “I am so very thankful for what we have.

The greed and power this union has sickens me.”

Kocourek shares Lewis’ frustrations.

“Every time they fight for raises and more benefits and win, my daughter loses hours of service,” she said. “They’re not fighting for what’s in the best interest of our loved ones, they’re fighting for what is in the best interest of the union.”

Stories from parents across Illinois and bleeding revenues indicate the SEIU is failing. And if past is prologue, residents can expect the union and its chosen state lawmakers to continue pushing to keep the SEIU relevant, to the detriment of families.

Illinois politics is too often a master class in masking true intentions.

A legislative push by the Service Employees International Union and some state lawmakers is one such case. Behind the curtain of Senate Bill 2931 is a greedy ploy by the SEIU to make more money at the expense of the state’s most vulnerable residents.

The bill mandates that personal assistants, also known as at-home caregivers, attend an in-person training session once a year. Sounds innocent enough, right? But what happened at mandatory caregiver trainings in 2014 offers clues to the union’s true motives.

“It felt like a union drive,” said Debra Lewis. “They were berating the program, and I learned nothing.”

Exxon sees smallest profit in 16 years, Chevron posts loss

By DAVID KOENIG

The Associated Press DALLAS – Motorists are saving billions on cheaper gasoline, but the long slump in oil prices is taking a heavy toll on companies that find and produce crude.

Exxon Mobil posted its smallest quarterly profit in more than 16 years Friday, while Chevron lost $725 million, its worst showing since 2002, and raised the number of jobs it expects to cut this year from 7,000 to 8,000. Other oil companies are expected to report weak earnings in the next few days.

Oil prices have tumbled from their 2014 highs of over $100 a barrel, bottoming out at under $30 in mid-February, because of a worldwide glut. Giant companies like Exxon and major petroleum-producing countries such as Saudi Arabia have continued to pump more from the ground despite the slide in prices.

Forecasters expect U.S. shale producers to cut production, however, which could ease the glut, and prices have been recovering over the past three months. Benchmark U.S. crude is trading at close to $46. Exxon and Chevron stock have gained ground.

“Investors are really focused on where things are heading, and that is higher oil prices,” said Brian Youngberg, an analyst with Edward Jones.

Youngberg said companies will aim to avoid the boom-and-bust cycle of the last few years by turning up output more slowly this time – and maybe not until prices are in the $50s. It might take two years or longer, he said, but

Chevron Corp. recorded its second straight losing quarter. Its $725 million loss was a sharp contrast from the first quarter of last year, when it made $2.57 billion. Revenue plunged 32 percent to $23.55 billion.

Chevron CEO John Watson said the company is controlling spending, focusing more on shorter-term projects, and completing key projects under construction to boost revenue. Exxon, too, is cutting capital spending – by 33 percent in the first quarter, compared with a year ago.

This week Standard & Poor’s downgraded Exxon’s credit rating one notch, to AA+. Exxon had been one of just three U.S. corporations with the top rating of AAA, but S&P cited lower energy prices and Exxon’s continuing high dividend payouts. The next day, Exxon raised its dividend for the 34th straight year.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 2016

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – A pop classic from the early ’90s, Amy Grant’s hit “Baby Baby,” is getting a reboot 25 years later thanks to Grammy-nominated singer Tori Kelly.

A new version of the song featuring original vocals from Grant and new vocals from the “Should’ve Been Us” singer was released Friday digitally as the 1991 No. 1 song is being remade for a new generation.

“At least those of us who enjoyed the first run of it, we hear this version that Tori Kelly does and it just brings back all the best memories where that song was the backdrop,” said Grant during an interview from her Nashville, Tennessee, home.

Spokesman: Will Ferrell ‘not pursuing’ Reagan film

Universal Pictures via AP

In this image released by Universal Pictures, Andy Samberg appears in a scene from “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping,” in theaters nationwide on June 3.

In ‘Popstar,’ Lonely Island aim for a ‘Spinal Tap’ for today NEW YORK – Lonely Island, the trio of Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, has technically already made the leap to the big screen in 2007’s wannabe daredevil comedy “Hot Rod.” But it won’t be until “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” hits theaters that the full experience of Lonely Island – in all their seductively wrapped male anatomy glory and seafaring glee – lands at the movies.

“This is the first one that’s really ours, from the ground up,” says Samberg. “’Hot Rod’ was a script we inherited and then we reworked it. We definitely took I’d say like 60 to 70 percent to our tone. Whereas this one we completely wrote and are producing it. We’re hoping it’s sort of the best of what we do.”

“Popstar,” in theaters June 3, was written by the threesome, co-directed

by Schaffer and Taccone, and stars Samberg as Conner4Real, a rapper whose suddenly plummeting fame forces him to reunite with his boy band.

The film, produced by Judd Apatow, places the former “Saturday Night Live” digital short creators in their wheelhouse: satirizing pop music while simultaneously celebrating it with surprisingly well-crafted original songs.

(The soundtrack will double as the fourth Lonely Island album.)

While the title plays on Justin Bieber’s 2001 film “Never Say Never,” Samberg says the group was inspired by other self-aggrandizing music documentaries, too, to make a contemporary ode to “This Is Spinal Tap.” “The genre of it is born out of the new wave of pop documentaries that (Justin) Bieber, Katie Perry and One Direction were making,” he says. “It felt like the way ‘Spinal Tap’ did it with rock docs, now there was sort of this new version of it that’s sort of newer and shinier and poppier.”

Rest assured, there will be Bieber jokes. But the target of “Popstar” is broader, taking in all of today’s social media-saturated music world. Pink and Adam Levine are among the movie’s many cameos.

LOS ANGELES – Will Ferrell is not pursuing a film project about President Ronald Reagan, a spokesman for the actor said Friday. The actor had read and considered the script for “Reagan” but had never committed to developing or starring in the comedic film, which had prompted a strong family backlash.

The script for “Reagan” had been described in a Variety report as a political satire about the president falling into dementia at the start of his second term.

Reagan’s children Michael Reagan and Patti Davis, as well as the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation, issued statements against the idea of a film portraying dementia and Alzheimer’s in a comedic fashion.

Utah theater asks judge to block law in “Deadpool” case SALT LAKE CITY – A Utah theater in trouble for serving booze during the movie “Deadpool” is asking a judge to block an obscenity law they say is so broad it would apply to Michelangelo’s “David.”

The theater, Brewvies in Salt Lake City, asked for a restraining order against state alcohol authorities late Thursday. Brewvies is facing a fine of up to $25,000 and possible revocation of their liquor license after undercover officers attended a screening of

Marvel’s R-rated antihero film in February.

American Airlines apologizes to musician for barring violin

FORT WORTH, Texas – A concert musician who was not allowed to board a flight with her violin says she hopes the incident will raise awareness of regulations that permit violins and other small instruments as carry-on luggage.

Rachel Barton Pine was told by a flight attendant and captain of an American Eagle flight that she could not bring her 18th century violin on board the plane Thursday from Chicago to Albuquerque, New Mexico.

They offered to valet-check the instrument, but Pine declined. The airline, which is based in Texas, later apologized.

Will Smith, Jada Pinkett Smith join Obama youth initiative LOS ANGELES – Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are adding their star power to President Barack Obama’s initiative to boost opportunities for vulnerable young Americans.

The Will & Jada Smith Family Foundation said Friday it will launch a “Careers in Entertainment Tour” to support Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper Initiative on its two-year anniversary.

In keeping with the initiative’s goals, the tour will be aimed at helping underserved high school and college students interested in entertainment industry careers, the foundation said.

Color, cooking times heat up kitchen choices

By KAREN SCHWARTZ The Associated Press

LAS VEGAS – Whether you’re Paleo, vegan or something in between, today’s luxury kitchen appliances are designed to let you individualize everything from color to cooking method.

“There’s a paradigm shift to personalization in the kitchen,” said Christopher von Nagel, president and chief executive officer of BSH Home Appliances Corp. North America.

BSH, which makes the Bosch, Gaggenau and Thermador brands, and more than 500 other exhibitors showed off their wares at this year’s three-day Kitchen and Bath Industry Show in Las Vegas. Walking through the crowd of more than 100,000 dealers, builders, architects, designers and suppliers, it became apparent that anyone shopping for a new kitchen should be prepared to make a lot of decisions, because the choices are overwhelming.

Among the highlights:

Cooking in color

While there’s still plenty of stainless, colored appliances are back in a big way.

“Some people want to make a statement,” said Valentina Bertazzoni, director of style and branding for her family’s company.

“You need a focal point, and cooking is a focal point,” she said, standing near Bertazzoni’s bright orange 48inch range.

French manufacturer La Cornue tapped designer Suzanne Kasler to create some Parisian-inspired colors for its handmade ranges. The result was 10 new offerings in soft shades, including rose-pink. Still, the new colors are a drop in the paint bucket for the company, which has more than 8,000 configurations, colors, finishes and measurements available.

Aga, owned by Middleby Corp., advertised a five-step “build your own” range with a choice of fuel types; options for two-, three-, fiveor seven-oven configurations; and 15 enamel finishes, including British racing green, pistachio, duck-egg blue, aubergine and heather. One matching collection included a range, vent hood, dishwasher and refrigerator in dark red.

Other coordinating kitchen options came from Northstar Appliances, a division of Elmira Stove Works, known for retro-looking wares. It showed a selection of modern appliances in 1950s styling that included a butter-

alone ice machines. What the sideby-side refrigerator-freezers do offer are dual compressors, sleek stainless interiors and interior LED lighting.

Customization has been around for a while with Thermador’s “Culinary Preservation Centers,” which allows customers to mix refrigerator, freezer and wine storage columns. Drawing a crowd this year were their unique finishes, including a custom, glossy, blue ombre sheen on a pair of wine columns flanked by a refrigerator and freezer.

Also on display was a combo that looked like a contemporary piece of furniture. It housed a 24-inch wine column, 30-inch fridge and 30-inch freezer – the latter two with wooden door panels carved with stylized tree branches. A thick cabinet made from stained alder wood wrapped all three AP photos units.

While growing to majestic proportions in the tropics, weeping figs also do quite well as a houseplant in the northern region of the U.S. AP photo

Two weeks back north returned me to my temperate-climate sensibilities.

Yes, we do need our weeping figs and dracaenas here. Even if they don’t strut their stuff with the splendor they do in the tropics.

The plants mentioned above are not really all that unhappy up here. After all, the tropical plants usually grown as northern houseplants have been selected for this purpose over the years because of their abilities to put on a decent show despite less-than-ideal growing temperatures, light and humidity.

These plants just need a little cod-

dling. Probably the most important thing they need is the right amount of water in their potting soil.

This begins with the right potting soil; a mix that’s too dense is going to stay waterlogged all the time, while a mix with too much extra perlite or sand is going to dry out too quickly.

Don’t just dig up garden soil to use straight-up for growing houseplants.

Buy or make your own potting mix. A good homemade mix might have equal parts garden soil, perlite, compost and peat moss or coir.

Once you have the right potting soil,

A winter trip to the “Isle of Enchantment,” Puerto Rico, left me feeling sorry for many of my houseplants back home.

The effects of steam-bath conditions there were dramatic. Crown-of-thorn plants billowed out into full-bodied shrubs, lush with leaves throughout.

Philodendrons clambered high into trees, embracing and completely hiding the trunks.

What a contrast dracaenas in the tropics make with “houseplant” dracaenas. Up north (I’m in New York State), dracaenas are reduced to little more than a few bare stems. The dracaenas that greeted me from planter boxes bordering an outdoor cafe in San Juan were heavily branched specimens clothed with leaves all along their stems.

In Puerto Rico, weeping figs soared to majestic proportions, humidity coaxing threadlike, aerial roots to drip from the branches and take root. Except for where these roots were cut away to allow passage beneath the limbs, they fused to become part of rippling gray trunks.

And talk about contrasts: My own weeping fig “tree” is 7 inches tall, a majestic tree in miniature, a bonsai.

water not according to a schedule but according to when your plants are thirsty.

This time of year, with increasing sunlight stirring plants into increased activity, water more frequently. Poke your finger in the soil, check the weight of pots, and look at plants to gauge when water is needed. An inexpensive soil moisture meter whose metal probe you push down into the potting soil is another way to know whether or not watering is needed.

You also might want to add some fertilizer to the water, because plants become hungrier this time of year.

Tropical plants are more at home and happier in springtime because there’s more moisture in the air than during the winter. Turning down the thermostat increases the relative humidity, as does putting pebbles – and keeping them wet – in the saucers beneath the flowerpots.

Water should not come up above the bottom of the pot, but just cover the pebbles, replenished as needed. Clustering plants together creates an oasis that looks tropical and envelops leaves in a cloud of humidity of their own making.

What tropical houseplants love best, though, is a summer vacation. Once warm weather settles in reliably, move them outdoors.

Women still need Pap test Dear Dr. K: I’ve had a Pap test every year for 20 years, since I was about 25.

It’s always normal. Do I still need one every year?

Dear Reader: The answer used to be yes. The reason was that doing the test often would help catch cancer of the cervix at its earliest and most curable stage.

However, studies showed less frequent Pap tests for younger women caught just as many early cancers.

The studies also showed many older women with repeatedly normal Pap smears (like you) had an extremely low risk of ever getting cancer of the cervix.

These studies led to new guidelines issued in 2012. They suggest women ages 21 to 65 have a Pap test every three years or, for women ages 30 to 65 who want to lengthen the screening interval, have a combination Pap test and human papillomavirus (HPV) test only once every five years. (Most cervical cancers are caused by specific types of HPV, a sexually transmitted virus.)

In addition, most women ages 65 and older, and women who have had a hysterectomy (and no longer have a cervix), do not need to have Pap tests. The exceptions are women with a history of precancerous cells, cervical cancer or abnormal Pap/HPV tests.

The new recommendations stem from a better understanding of how cervical cancer develops. It doesn’t develop very rapidly. Rather, there are clear precancerous stages that take years to progress.

What’s the downside of an annual Pap test? For young women in particular, frequent Pap tests can lead to false positive results (the test result suggests a possible cancer, but there really is no

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff cancer). That false positive result can lead to unnecessary worry and anxiety.

It also can lead to further, and invasive, diagnostic tests such as a colposcopy and biopsy of the cervix. These invasive diagnostic tests, in turn, can cause vaginal bleeding, infections and pain.

Less often, the Pap test and HPV test can produce false negative results (the test result is normal, but there really is a cancer). With that false reassurance, a woman may be less likely to bring worrisome symptoms (like bleeding between menstrual periods or pain) to her doctor’s attention.

Unfortunately, the tests we have available to screen for cancer are not perfect. Since the tests are imperfect, and could cause complications, you’d want to have them when they are more likely to benefit you than to harm you.

That’s why recommendations as to how often a woman should have a Pap test are based on the risks of a false positive or false negative result, and how likely cervical cancer is in the person having the test.

For example, cervical cancer is less common in young women than in women in their late 50s.

The bottom line: You still need the Pap (and the HPV) test, but not as often as you did in the past.

this young man to talk to your parents about his interest in you. If he is nice, respectful and employed or in school, they may be less suspicious about his intentions.

Dear Abby: Two years ago, we lost a very close friend of mine, not to death but to a relationship.

“Ben” is the most genuine, caring and loving person you could ever meet. He and my sister dated for what seemed like forever, but unfortunately it didn’t work out. We all were devastated.

Still, he was around because he had become like a member of our family.

Ben finally met a great woman he cared for.

We all were happy he had found someone, and maybe he’d finally be the great dad we knew he could be. Our family loved his new girlfriend, and welcomed her to all gatherings.

Six months to a year into their relationship, we learned Ben failed to mention to her he and my sister had been an item for many years (engaged at one point). When she found out, she demanded he stop talking to us.

Ben is now married to his then-girlfriend. I miss him dearly and think about him every week as he was that important to me. He attended all birthdays, graduations, etc., and he now has missed many of them. I always thought he would be the “uncle” my children never had.

Would it be selfish or unfair to him if I approached his wife about letting us back into his life? – Miss Him Dearly Dear Miss Him: I don’t think it would be selfish or unfair to Ben, but depending on the level of his wife’s insecurity, it may be unsuccessful.

Ben should have been honest with her from the beginning about his connection to your family.

That the information was withheld from her may be why she reacted the way she did.

Dear Abby: My cousin was hard up and needed a place to stay. I told her she could stay with us, there was no need for her to pay rent and to just help with groceries. Well, she has been here a while now and she not only hasn’t pitched in, but also helps herself to our car since she doesn’t have one.

You tend to have the best advice. Please tell me what to do, because I’m not sure. – Family

Huntley Estate Sale 10474 Casselberry South April 29th, 30th & May 1st 10-3 Furniture, Pool Table, Theatre Seating, Household & MUCH MORE! EVERYTHING MUST GO!

Huntley Estate Sale Woodstock Estate Sale .

Margaret Mead, a cultural anthropologist who died in 1978, said, “I was brought up to believe that the only thing worth doing was to add to the sum of accurate information in the world.”

At the bridge table, describing your hand to partner should help your side to reach the best contract.

However, it also gives information to the opponents. In addition, as we have seen this week, the bids, passes and cards played by the defenders can be revealing to the declarer.

In this final example, South is in four spades. West cashes the heart ace and heart king, then shifts to a diamond. How should South continue?

After three passes and South’s one-spade opening bid, if West makes a takeout double, North might jump to four spades, quoting the Law of Total Tricks. However, with no singleton and so many losers, that would be an overbid. Better is to preempt with three spades. (Over a takeout double, two no-trump shows a limit raise with at least four trumps.)

South wins trick three, draws trumps, cashes the rest of the diamonds ending in the dummy (to delay the evil moment), then leads the club jack. When East plays low smoothly, what should declarer do?

West has already shown up with nine points: the heart ace-king and spade queen. If he has the club ace too, he would have opened the bidding. So, South should go up with his club king.

Finally, note East’s smooth lowclub play at trick nine -- he knows that the defenders need two club tricks to defeat the contract. He must make declarer guess what to do.

THE DAILY

CL South finishes 5-0 in division with victory

By JOHN WILKINSON

From Twitter @cstrevy

Tweet from last night

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – When Courtney Sengstock gets nervous, she starts moving.

The Crystal Lake South junior rarely stopped Friday night until she was subbed off with six minutes remaining to a smattering of applause and highfives on the sideline.

“I know that I was really, really nervous,” Sengstock said. “But when I’m nervous, I feel like I move much better just because I’m like, ‘Oh shoot, I need to be here, I need to be here.’ So I think most of it was just nerves, that’s why I was moving so much.”

Sengstock’s constant movement helped create two first-half goals, which propelled South to a 3-1 win over Huntley in a Fox Valley Conference Valley Division game Friday night at Huntley.

The victory gave the Gators (12-5, 5-0) their first conference title since sharing it two years ago.

“That was by far the best game we’ve put together against a really quality team,” South coach Jay Mueller said.

“They just came out today and you could tell from the beginning they wanted it, they knew what was at stake and they just weren’t going to let anybody stand in their way today.”

Mueller was worried about his team’s nerves coming into the de facto division title game.

“Before the game, they were a little quieter than they usually were, and that was actually making me nervous, thinking that maybe they were a little bit too nervous,” Mueller said. “But once they got out there and started playing, it took five, 10 minutes for them to settle down and then they just started controlling the game.”

The visitors took the lead with 14:15 in the first half. Sengstock and Emily Warren combined in the middle before feeding the ball out wide to defender Jenna Ross who was charging up the wing.

Ross got past her defender and slid a ball across the box for Sengstock to finish at the back post.

“We knew that their formation was perfect for us to keep running down the

Crystal Lake South played all five of its conference games in an 11-day span, including three this week. The odd schedule ended up being a blessing for a team hitting its stride. “When you get some momentum early on you want to play them quickly, so that worked out for us,” coach Jay Mueller said. line,” Ross said. “Our coach told us to keep running down the line and it just perfectly worked on that one play, and we got it, and I looked right at Courtney and it was perfectly placed and she was in the right position. ... Everything just clicked today.”

Less than three minutes later, Sengstock made it 2-0. When Huntley defender Sam Huestis and goalkeeper Paige Renkosik got mixed up on who was claiming a cross into the box, Sengstock pressured them into an error and poked the ball into the net with 11:28 left before halftime.

After the break, the Gators made it 3-0 in the 56th minute when Brandie Minogue snuck a left-footed shot under Renkosik.

Huntley (13-3-1, 2-1) never seemed to find its rhythm.

“Our passing wasn’t the greatest, we couldn’t find feet, we weren’t moving off the ball and put those together you can’t really do much,” senior captain Taryn Jakubowski said. “We got a talking to in halftime, so I thought we picked it up a little bit in the second half, but it still wasn’t good enough.”

The hosts got one goal back in the final six minutes when Jakubowski hit a knuckling shot that found the net from 35 yards out. The goal made it 3-1 with 5:23 left and despite a few more chances, it was not enough for the Red Raiders.

South goalkeeper Annika Sevcik made three saves while Huntley’s Renkosik made six.

VIEWS Mike DeFabo

• Saturday, April 30, 2016

The first time I went to a game with Joe Stevenson was two years ago at Crystal Lake Central. As we approached the ticket window, Joe reached for his Northwest Herald press pass hanging from his neck.

“Come on in, Joe,” the ticket-taker greeted him warmly, without so much as glancing at his credential.

“She didn’t even look at your credential,” I said.

“Oh, I know her,” Joe answered.

She wasn’t the only one. Before long, Joe was milling about inside the stadium, talking with the school’s athletic director. Then some parents.

Then some former players.

What I came to realize is this scene is hardly unique. Everyone knows Joe. Former Northwest Herald sports editor Jason Schaumburg fittingly nicknamed Joe “The Mayor” for the way he shakes hands and kisses babies with the charm of a politician.

You’ve surely seen Joe out at games wearing his Red Sox ball cap. Maybe you’ve run into him and his chocolate lab, Jacoby, at a track meet. Surely you’ve read his stories here in the Northwest Herald.

But now, for the first time, instead of his name in the byline, it’s appropriate for Joe’s name to be in the headline. On Saturday, Joe will be inducted into the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame during a banquet at Illinois State University in Normal.

He’ll enjoy the moment with his parents, his sister and brother-in-law, two of his high school buddies, his daughters, Lexi and Tori, and of course his wife, Beckie.

A true family man, Joe deflects a lot of the credit to his wife.

“My wife Beckie has been so supportive through all these years with me working nights,” Joe said. “There were times when she may have felt a little bit like a single mom because she was at home with our two daughters and I was out watching games. She was a little bit like a coach’s wife. She didn’t complain, because she understood I was doing what I loved, and I always appreciated that.”

Joe’s interest in athletics was passed down from his father, Joe, who used to take him into the locker room and let him sit on the bench when he coached basketball games in Illinois and Missouri.

He joined the Northwest Herald in 1989 and has stayed for more than 27 years. In other words, he’s been at this one paper longer than I’ve been alive. From the height of print jour-

Basketball coaches’ hall welcomes our ‘mayor’

BELOW: Stevenson keeps stats with his dog, Jacoby, during a Huntley vs. Crystal Lake Central baseball game in March. nalism through the rise of the Internet and social media, Joe has been here through it all.

“It’s crazy how much has changed,” Joe said. “I remember if I went to a game on the road and couldn’t get back to the office to write, I wrote it out long-hand and had to dictate the story back to somebody sitting in the office.”

During that time, Joe has seen each and every record broken at the McHenry County track meet. He’s covered about 5,500 events, including numerous state championship games and the 2007 Super Bowl in Miami.

Ask him about any of those games, and he can recall the scores and the key plays. His knowledge of McHenry County sports is surpassed only by his endless use of movie quotes.

As an outsider, I’ve leaned heavily on Joe’s knowledge and connections here. Every time he tells me about someone I don’t know, he describes them as a “really good guy.” I like to joke that if Joe says someone is a “pretty good guy” they must be an absolute scumbag, because Joe always seems to find the best in others.

I’ve also been fortunate enough to see Joe outside of work. Each spring, he hits bucket after bucket of softballs in the batting cage to prepare for our men’s league softball season. At 57, Joe remains in outstanding shape and fiercely competitive.

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

It shows on the field. He boasts one of the best batting averages on the team. However, as the team captain, he pencils himself low in the batting order, putting others before himself.

Sometimes I wonder how Joe has maintained his passion for sports writing through all these years. He told me that when he was first starting out, he heard a quote that he’s kept with him through the years.

“As a sports writer, you should ap-

proach everything with a willingness to be surprised,” Joe said, repeating the quote.

Well, it’s no surprise that Joe is being inducted into the IBCA Hall of Fame.

Congrats, Joe. You deserve it.

4 BASEBALL: HUNTLEY 10, McHENRY 2

Red Raiders rough up Warriors’ ace Miller gives up 7 first-inning runs

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com McHENRY – In the middle of Huntley’s outburst against McHenry ace Bobby Miller, one of the Red Raiders could not hold in his excitement.

“We’re so good at baseball!” the player exclaimed.

It was not bragging or trash talking, it was true.

From the outset, Miller, a right-handed, 90-mph-throwing terror to hitters, was no mystery for the Raiders. Leadoff man Jeff Heinrich deposited a 0-1 pitch on the warning track in left-center field.

The first seven Raiders reached base.

Miller, a junior committed to Louisville, was gone before the inning finished.

Huntley rode that wave to a 10-2 victory Friday in a Fox Valley Conference

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

After Huntley jumped ahead, 10-0, Raiders coach Andy Jakubowski subbed players or pinch hit for every player in the lineup except Koss, in the No. 2 slot.

Valley Division baseball game at Petersen Park.

“If you told me that was going to happen … uh … I’m at a loss for words,” Huntley coach Andy Jakubowski said.

“I don’t know what to say. We kind of got the idea yesterday (Miller would pitch), and we talked about shortening up our stroke and trying to put the ball on the barrel as much as we could and minimize our strikeouts.”

Heinrich said his second pitch was a thigh-high fastball he did not miss.

“It gave us the early momentum and we capitalized on it,” Heinrich said.

“That was pretty crazy. We didn’t expect it, but we took advantage of it and knocked [Miller] out early.”

Tyler Koss was hit by a pitch after Heinrich’s double, then Joe Rizzo and Brad Model singled. Huntley (14-7 overall, 6-3 FVC Valley) sent 13 batters to the plate and scored seven off Miller, four of which were earned.

“We knew [Miller] was going to be throwing fastballs. He throws hard and thinks he can throw it by people,” Model said. “Our mentality was just to hit the fastball, early and often. [Heinrich] got us pumped up. We were rolling after that. It really lifted us up. No one expected it, but you hit the fastball, and we

were able to hit well situationally and score.”

Huntley left-hander Adam Smylie struck out three and allowed two hits over three innings before Jakubowski went to his bullpen. The Warriors (13-6, 4-4) picked up two runs on Matt Spooner’s fourth-inning single but got nothing more.

“Our guys came out swinging and did a great job,” Jakubowski said. “They did the best job offensively that we have all year in terms of situational hitting.”

Warriors coach Brian Rockweiler said it was just one of those days when Miller did not have his good stuff. Miller, who previously allowed one earned run all season, walked three and had two wild pitches in the first, along with a throwing error.

“He got frustrated with himself a lot,” Rockweiler said. “He was probably trying to do too much instead of just throwing strikes and making them hit it. It’s weird. I asked him, like, ‘Are you OK?’ He said, ‘Yeah, I’m fine.’ He just couldn’t throw anything for a strike.”

PREP ROUNDUP

Cary-Grove’s McCumber perfect against D-C NORTHWEST HERALD Junior Matt McCumber became the second Cary-Grove baseball pitcher to throw a perfect game this season, needing only 67 pitches Friday in a 1-0 Fox Valley Conference Valley Division win against Dundee-Crown in Carpentersville.

McCumber, a 6-foot-3 right-hander and Northern Illinois commit, struck out six and recorded the remaining 15 outs on ground balls. He threw 48 of 67 pitches for strikes.

Danny Schmidt, a senior, also tossed a perfect game for C-G in a 5-0 win over Woodstock on April 5. Last year, McCumber tossed a one-hitter against Jacobs.

“I’ve thrown a no-hitter before, but not a perfect game,” McCumber said.

“I focused on keeping the ball low. My last few starts, I was throwing everything high and my offspeed wasn’t on.

I just worked on getting a good release on it and finishing out in front. My defense did a great job backing me up, making every play for me.”

The Trojans (14-7 overall, 6-2 FVC Valley) broke through with the game’s only run in the top of the sixth inning after Tyler Pennington was intentionally walked to load the bases.

After a strikeout, Tom Neilson was hit by a pitch on a 2-2 count by D-C’s Erik Hedmark, scoring Dominic Calamari from third with two outs.

Hedmark took the loss for the Chargers (12-7, 7-2), allowing four hits with six strikeouts and one walk in seven innings. D-C’s Danny Denz grounded out to McCumber for the final out.

“My last inning I had a couple guys at 3-1 and was sweating over that,” McCumber said. “(Third baseman) Mark (Smith) bobbled one on a hard play and got him out. It was just great.”

Crystal Lake South 3, Grayslake Central 2: At Crystal Lake, Cam Geisser broke

a 2-2 tie in the bottom of the fifth with an RBI double for the Gators in a FVC crossover win. Griffin Bright scored the go-ahead run for South, while Kory Olsen and Geisser both scored in the victory, Keeton Ryza earned the win, allowing two runs (one earned) on four hits in 52/3 innings with a pair of strikeouts and one walk. Andrew Engelking earned the save for the Gators (16-3, 7-3 FVC Valley).

Woodstock 2, Woodstock North 1: At Woodstock North, Jacob Sumner and Noah Dehn Franklin each drove in one run in the third to give the Blue Streaks the lead in an FVC Fox victory.

Joey Brown picked up the win for Woodstock, allowing one run on seven hits over 4 1/3 innings with eight strikeouts and three walks. Cory Busse pitched all seven innings for the Thunder, allowing two unearned runs on three hits with six strikeouts and one walk.

Nate Harris was 2 for 4 and drove in the only run for Woodstock North (6-11, 0-8) and Brennen Ward added a double.

Harvard 10, Alden-Hebron 4: At Harvard, Hunter Freres, Josh Whaples and Tyler Perkins each had a triple for the Hornets in a nonconference win.

Freres was 2 for 3 with three RBIs and two runs scored, and Perkins went 3 for 4 with two RBIs and one steal.

Bryton Crosby was 1 for 4 with three RBIs for Harvard (9-8), and Caleb Overlee earned the win by allowing four runs on 10 hits over seven innings with four strikeouts and three walks.

John Judson took the loss for A-H (614), giving up eight runs (four earned) on eight hits over five innings with six strikeouts, also going 1 for 3 with a solo home run.

Brad Judson went 2 for 4 with a double and one RBI, Kyle Judson and David Reiter each scored a run, and Justin Steele had one RBI.

Burlington Central 5-8, Johnsburg 4-6:

At Johnsburg, the Rockets had a walkoff double in the bottom of the 11th inning to finish a suspended game as Burlington Central won both Big Northern Conference East Division games. In the suspended game, Johnsburg’s Justin McCauley went 2 for 5 with two RBIs. In the second game, Burlington scored three runs in the seventh to force extra innings, and added two runs in the eighth. Niko LoDolce (two runs) and Justin Gutierrez each drove in two runs for the Skyhawks (8-11, 3-4 BNC East), while Dillon Pokuta and Ryan Kordik each had one RBI in the loss.

BOYS TRACK AND FIELD

Badger Invitational: At Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, Ryan Magel placed first in the 100 meters and second in the 400 for Cary-Grove, leading the Trojans to second place.

Badger won the meet with 173 points, Cary-Grove was second with 142.5 points, and Johnsburg took sixth with 69 points.

Magel won the 100 with a time of 11.56 and he was also part of Cary-Grove’s winning 4x400 relay, along with Nick Zanetti, Sang Seo and Tommy Williams.

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush

Bears draft targets It’ll be a busy Saturday for Ryan Pace and the Bears’ personnel department with three picks in the fourth round, one in the fifth, two in the sixth and one in the seventh.

Certainly the Bears are in position to combine some picks and move up at some point, but regardless, they’ll welcome a slew of rookies to conclude the 2016 NFL Draft.

After three picks, the areas of need the Bears have yet to address include quarterback, running back, tight end, cornerback and safety. Here are players to watch on Day Three who could fit with the Bears and what the scouting reports say: QUARTERBACK Dak Prescott, Mississippi State: Prescott is athletic with a strong arm. He was productive in college, but has an awkward delivery.

Kevin Hogan, Stanford: Efficient, smart quarterback coming from a pro-style offense at Stanford.

Brandon Allen, Arkansas: Quick delivery would fit the Bears’ offense and he has a connection to Dowell Loggains. Undersized.

RUNNING BACK Kenneth Dixon, Louisiana Tech: Maybe the best receiving back in the draft surprisingly is still available. Extremely productive and competitive.

Josh Ferguson, Illinois: Joliet Catholic product is a dual threat as a runner and receiver who would be a good complementary back in any offense.

Alex Collins, Arkansas: In-between-thetackles runner was very productive for the Razorbacks.

TIGHT END Jerell Adams, South Carolina: Has a good frame for the position and plenty of experience as a receiver. Developmental prospect.

Henry Krieger Coble, Iowa: Productive for the Hawkeyes last season was a good route runner who can get stronger as a blocker.

Darion Griswold, Arkansas State: Small school prospect shined at the Shrine Game and has the size and athleticism to develop.

CORNERBACK Harlan Miller, Southeastern Louisiana: Had 11 interceptions. Didn’t time well at the Combine (4.65 40) but was impressive at the Senior Bowl.

Deiondre’ Hall, Northern Iowa: Has great length for Vic Fangio’s secondary with long arms to make plays on the ball (13 career

picks).

Maurice Canady, Virginia: Another long corner with the athleticism to be a playmaker, but his production dropped last season.

SAFETY Jeremy Cash, Duke: Could be a hybrid linebacker/safety with his abilities in the box.

Very adept tackler with a nose for the ball.

Tyvis Powell, Ohio State: Great size and athleticism for the position. Needs to hone his instincts to play center field.

Miles Killebrew, Southern Utah: Small school prospect has ideal length (6-foot-2) and put up big numbers at the Combine in the bench press and jumps, showing strength and explosion.

I’m sure many, if not most, of you are getting tired of hearing me say this, but it doesn’t make it any less important, significant or true.

You cannot fairly or accurately analyze an NFL team’s draft for at least two and, most often, three years.

We have to let these kids earn their way onto the field, then play and show us what they actually can do at the next level before we know where they Cody fit in the league.

Whitehair We will begin to have an idea whether or not Bears general manager Ryan Pace can succeed in the draft at the end of this season, and by the end of 2017, we will have educated opinions.

What we can do right away is analyze how a player fits what the team that took him is trying to do, and we can comment on whether or not a team is getting value from their picks based on where they are selected in the draft.

The problem I’m having with Pace and the Bears at the moment is I’m really not sure what they’re trying to do.

After drafting Leonard Floyd with the ninth pick in the first round, Pace explained he puts a tremendous value on pass rushers, that he is convinced Floyd can be a special one and that he wants to collect sack artists.

That I understand. I can live with it, and I think we owe him the benefit of the doubt or at least a chance for Floyd to prove he can be that guy.

take one.

That they added three additional fourth-round picks is nice, but it’s a lot harder to find significant contributors in the fourth round than it is in the second.

At 56, the Bears finally drafted Cody Whitehair, a left tackle from Kansas State who is universally considered to be the top guard prospect in the draft, but a non-starter at tackle in the NFL because of size limitations.

With Kyle Long, Matt Slauson and free-agent signees Ted Larsen and Manny Ramirez, there might be nothing the Bears need less than another guard.

Whitehair is a top 50 prospect, a nice value at 56, but how does he make the Bears better?

Jonathan Bullard is one of my favorite players in this draft, a top 60to-65 prospect who the Bears selected at 72, again a really nice value.

But Bullard was born to play the three-technique in a 4-3 defense and clearly is best suited to be a one-gap defender.

The Bears occasionally will play that scheme in their sub packages, but not all that often.

With all the significant needs the AP file photo The Bears selected Florida defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard in the third round of the Bears continue to have, can they afford to keep ignoring them with NFL draft Friday. their highest picks to add situational Floyd was not a huge reach at nine, nique, safety, left tackle, running back players?

6 NFL DRAFT: BEARS

Bears trade down, nab guard, D-lineman

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com LAKE FOREST – As defensive lineman after defensive lineman got taken in Round 2 of the NFL draft Friday, the Bears traded down twice, eventually taking Kansas State guard Cody Whitehair.

They got their D-lineman in the third round, taking Florida’s Jonathan Bullard.

Whitehair started 51 games at Kansas State. He stands 6-foot-4, 301 pounds with 32 3/8 -inch arms, and while he played tackle at times in Manhattan and said he’ll play wherever the Bears ask him, he feels most comfortable at guard.

“I’m not the tallest guy but I feel like I can make it up with some quickness,” he said. “I just feel that guard is a better fit for me.”

General manager Ryan Pace lauded Whitehair’s traits that were good enough for a second-round selection.

“He’s smart. He’s tough. He’s instinctive. He loves the weight room,” Pace said. “Those are all things that I like. Good player that we’re excited to have. A versatile player.”

Whitehair joins a logjam the Bears have at guard with Kyle Long, Matt

The Bears traded down twice before taking Kansas State offensive lineman Cody Whitehair (center) in the second round of the NFL draft Friday.

Slauson, Manny Ramirez and Ted Larsen. It’s possible the team considers moving Slauson, who is 30 and due $2.85 million next year.

When asked whether Slauson will be joining the team at camp, Pace responded, “We haven’t even gotten to that yet. We’re just adding talent and

we’ll let it all sort out.”

Through their two trades in the second round – with the Bills and Seahawks – the Bears added two fourthround picks – No. 117 and No. 124 overall – along with an extra fourth-rounder from Buffalo for 2017.

Bullard, a 6-3, 285-pounder with 33

5/8” arms, comes to the Bears following a third-team All-American nod at Florida last season, when he had 17.5 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks among his 66 tackles. Bullard started at nose tackle, defensive tackle and defensive end. Like Whitehair, Bullard had plenty of experience in college, playing in 50 games with 36 starts.

“I’ll probably play a little bit of three-technique and five-technique,” Bullard said. “… I think it’s a good fit for me.”

Pace likes Bullard’s get-off at the snap as one of his best traits, which should help a D-line that needs to get better penetration.

“There’s just some things about him that jump out. we talk about versatility,” Pace said. “He can play the run, he’s instinctive, he’s got range and again his get-off – he’s really quick and sudden off the ball. and we’re excited to have him.”

Bullard knows that reaction to the snap is his ticket to being an effective NFL defensive lineman.

“My greatest strength would probably be my first step and my play recognition,” Bullard said. “I think I did a good job of reading the game and I could kind of see things before it happened.”

NFL DRAFT

Injured LBs Jack, Smith go early in 2nd round

By JAY COHEN

The Associated Press CHICAGO – It was a long wait and a soft landing for Myles Jack and Jaylon Smith.

Now about those knees.

The pair of athletic linebackers with health questions went early in the second round of the NFL draft Friday, with Jacksonville trading up to grab Jack two spots after Dallas selected Smith with the No. 34 overall pick.

Jack and Smith were two of the biggest names still on the board at the beginning of the day, and Alabama running back Derrick Henry went to Tennessee at No. 45. Henry powered the Crimson Tide to the national championship last season and won the Heisman Trophy.

Jack was considered a potential top-five pick at one point, but concerns about his right knee sent him tumbling down the board. He played both ways as a freshman at UCLA and was the Pac-12 offensive and defensive newcomer of the year. But a knee injury limited him to

“Bottom line is, man, I’m ready to

go,” Jack said. “I’ll be there rookie minicamp. I’m a 100 percent healthy. I’m cleared. The knee shouldn’t be a concern anymore. I definitely proved that with my play. There’s nothing else to talk about. I’m ready to play ball.”

General manager Dave Caldwell said Jack had a great workout for the team.

“You’d never know there was anything wrong with him,” Jaguars general manager Dave Caldwell said. “As far as we’re concerned, there’s not right now.

There’s no plan for surgeries. There’s no plan for any additional treatment. I think we’re good to go.”

Smith also was expected to be a firstround pick before he tore two ligaments in his left knee during Notre Dame’s loss to Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl. Following the advice of doctors at Notre Dame and agent Eugene Parker, who passed away from cancer on March 31, Smith had Cowboys team doctor Dan Cooper perform the surgery.

“I’m going to be fine. I’ll be able to play again,” Smith said. “It’s just timing. Timing is everything and for Dallas

to draft me, they’re going to get a great player. I’m looking forward to playing for a great team.”

Mississippi State defensive tackle Chris Jones, one of the last players at the downtown Chicago theater, went to Kansas City at No. 37 and got a big ovation when he walked onstage. He gave Commissioner Roger Goodell a big hug as the crowd roared.

Jones said he has never been to Kansas City.

“I heard they got the best steak, the best barbecue ... I can’t wait to get there and eat,” Jones said.

Linebacker Reggie Ragland (No. 41 to Buffalo), defensive tackles A’Shawn Robinson (No. 46 for Detroit) and Jarran Reed (No. 49 to Seattle) and cornerback Cyrus Jones (No. 60 to New England) made it five players for Alabama in the second round. Kenyan Drake, Henry’s backup with the Crimson Tide, went to Miami in the third round.

Center Ryan Kelly was the only one from Nick Saban’s program to go on the first day.

Warriors assistant Walton returns to Lakers as coach

LOS ANGELES – Luke Walton is coming home to rebuild the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Lakers reached an agreement Friday night with the Golden State assistant to become their head coach, dramatically choosing a young leader for their new era after Kobe Bryant.

The Lakers grabbed Walton five days after they fired Byron Scott, who led the 16-time NBA champions to the two worst seasons in franchise history.

Walton spent nine seasons as a forward for the Lakers, winning two championship rings as a smart,

Ducks fire coach Boudreau after early playoff exit

ANAHEIM, Calif. – The Anaheim Ducks fired coach Bruce Boudreau on Friday, two days after the fourtime Pacific Division champions’ first-round exit from the playoffs.

While announcing the move, Ducks general manager Bob Murray expressed much more anger at his players than at Boudreau, who hasn’t been able to pair postseason success with steady excellence in his two NHL jobs in Anaheim and Washington. Boudreau has won 409 regular-season games and eight division titles, but only five playoff rounds in his coaching career.

The Ducks have lost a Game 7 on home ice in four consecutive playoff years, culminating in Wednesday’s 2-1 loss to Nashville in the first round.

“I just think the last four years, the way they’ve ended, all very similar, that I didn’t think it would be a good situation to go forward in,” Murray said. “In no way, shape or form is this pointing a gun at Bruce’s head. Let’s make that perfectly clear. But you’ve got to start somewhere.”

Lovemark, Vegas share lead in PGA event; Affrunti 9 back

AVONDALE, La. – Jamie Lovemark and Jhonattan Vegas shared the Zurich Classic lead at 11-under-par 133 Friday when second-round play was suspended because of darkness.

Lovemark had a 27-hole day at hot and humid TPC Louisiana, completing a 5-under 67 in the first round and adding a 66 in the second in the event that fell behind schedule Thursday with a long rain delay.

Crystal Lake native Joe Affrunti was at 2 under, the projected cut line, after at 1-over 73 on Friday.

Vegas, from Venezuela, shot 64-69.

None of the players in the afternoon wave finished the round, with top-ranked Jason Day at 5 under and facing a 15-foot birdie putt on the par-5 11th when play resumes. He is the first No. 1 player to play in the event since David Duval in 1999.

MIAMI – Reigning NL batting champion Dee Gordon of the Miami Marlins said he unknowingly took the performance-enhancing drugs that led to his 80-game suspension, but he’ll accept the Dee Gordon penalty.

The announcement of the suspension by Major League Baseball came shortly after the Marlins’ victory Thursday night at Los Angeles.

MLB said Gordon tested positive for exogenous testosterone and clostebol.

“Though I did not do so knowingly, I have been informed that test results showed I ingested something that contained prohibited substances,” Gordon said in a statement released Friday by the players union. “The hardest part about this is feeling that I have let down my teammates, the organization, and the fans. I have been careful to avoid products that could contain something banned

by MLB and the 20-plus tests that I have taken and passed throughout my career prove this.

“I made a mistake, and I accept the consequences.”

The 28-year-old Gordon led the majors in hits and stolen bases last year. He batted .333, became an All-Star for the second time and won a Gold Glove at second base.

The big season helped him earn a $50 million, five-year contract he signed in January.

steady contributor. Three years after his retirement as a player, the 36-year-old is back to become the 26th head coach in franchise history.

burg, the Skyhawks came back from a 6-0 deficit in a nonconference win. Morgan Post, Tess Wright and Amy Bennett each drove in two runs for Johnsburg, while Leah Kottke was 2 for 4 with a pair of doubles.

Wright and Bennett each added two steals.

Amaya Saldana went 2 for 4 with four RBIs for the Thunder (8-17), Ellie Thurow was 3 for 4 with three runs, one RBI and a steal, and Lulu Nicks finished 2 for 3 with one run and three steals.

Crystal Lake Central 7, Grant 5: At Fox Lake, Clare Urbanski went 2 for 3 with a double and three RBIs for the Tigers (10-8) in a nonconference victory. Amy Walsh was 3 for 4 with a double, two runs and one RBI, Jessica Cruz went 2 for 3 with a double and two runs, and Monica Menas scored a pair of runs.

Savanah Frank earned the win, allowing four runs (one earned) on three hits in 52/3 innings with three strikeouts. Aly Proper also drove in one.

Huntley 10, Gurnee Warren 8: At Huntley, Rylie Porretto went 2 for 3 with a home run, two runs and three RBIs to lead the Raiders (13-5) to the nonconference win. Sofia Tenuta was 2 for 3 with a home run and three RBIs, and Autumn Kasal was 2 for 4 with a steal and two runs.

12 CUBS 6, BRAVES 1

Lester’s escape, Szczur’s slam lift Cubs Lefty overcomes another problem fielding position

By JEFF ARNOLD

For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – Jon Lester was in serious need of a timeout. So when Joe Maddon made his way out of the dugout in the seventh inning with the Cubs and Braves tied, the bases loaded and no outs, Lester knew one of two things was about to happen.

“Either you’re getting taken out of the game or he’s giving me a pep talk,” Lester said.

Maddon, in his own Joe Cool way, chose the latter. He told Lester to think about a positive result rather than give in to the one many nervous Cubs fans feared was coming.

The visit paid off. Lester struck out Drew Stubbs and Jace Peterson and got Nick Markakis to ground out to first baseman Anthony Rizzo. The Houdini act loomed large as the Cubs scored five runs in the eighth inning, includ-

“Obviously, that’s a big inning because if they get a hit there or even a walk, the momentum is on their side,” said Lester, who allowed one run and seven hits, walked two and struck out

10 in the no-decision.

But Lester put himself in that jam, and his fielding issues played a part.

He gave up a leadoff single to Jeff Francoeur and walked Tyler Flowers. Then Erick Aybar put down a seemingly harmless bunt back to Lester, who appeared to freeze. Maddon said Lester

“chose not to throw,” and that decision loaded the bases.

Asked to reconstruct his thought process, Lester immediately went on the defensive.

“No matter what I say about the bunt in that inning, nobody’s really going to believe what I say,” he said.

“I never had a handle on it. I fielded it, the ball kind of rattled around in my glove, I reached for it twice and didn’t have a handle on it and ate it. You can believe me or not on that.”

Whatever the case, retiring the next three batters made Lester’s latest fielding adventure a moot point.

Pedro Strop relieved and pitched a hitless eighth, and Rizzo broke the 1-1 tie with an RBI single in the bottom of the inning. Szczur followed with his blast to left field.

As big as that was for the Cubs, everything pointed back to Maddon’s meeting and Lester’s ability to move past the negative and escape the mess he helped create.

“Huge,” catcher David Ross said.

“Joe’s visit was so important. He laid out the game and what he was thinking just as a calming factor. He never is anxious; there’s never any stress in Joe’s voice.”

CUBS NOTES

Bryant rests sprained ankle; Maddon cautious

By JEFF ARNOLD

For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – Third baseman Kris Bryant missed his first game of the season Friday with a mild ankle sprain.

Manager Joe Maddon said after the 6-1 win over the visiting Atlanta Braves that Bryant was feeling better after rolling his ankle while scoring on an Anthony Rizzo double Thursday against Milwaukee. An MRI on Thursday confirmed the initial diagnosis.

With rain forecast Saturday, Maddon will wait until gametime to determine whether Bryant will play.

“The [risk] with sprained ankles is to re-jam it somehow,” Maddon said.

“That’s the problem with an ankle. You could be feeling fine after even a week or two weeks and you just hit it wrong and you feel it. The biggest concern is that someone is not able to hurt themselves any further.”

First slam: Matt Szczur was just looking for something he could drive when he powered his first career grand

“That’s the problem with an ankle. You could be feeling fine after even a week or two weeks and you just hit it wrong and you feel it.”

Joe Maddon

Cubs manager, on Kris Bryant’s ankle injury slam into the left-field bleachers in the eighth inning.

The Cubs were leading, 2-1, when Szczur delivered against right-handed reliever Chris Withrow on an 0-1 pitch.

It was his second homer of the year.

“It was just a big hit,” said Szczur, who entered as a defensive replacement in the eighth. “It was a crucial part of the game, and I was just super excited.”

The slam earned him a curtain call.

“I can’t explain the feelings I have,” he said.

Out of the gates: The Cubs’ 17-5 record marks their best start since it began the 1907 season 18-4. The 17 wins also match the 2008 team for the most in April. But the impressive start doesn’t mean there isn’t room for improvement.

“We’re not clicking on all cylinders consistently,” right fielder Jason Heyward said. “When you have a lineup like this, you’re going to be careful with certain people, certain people are still going to have a breakout game and things like that, but we’ve got to keep doing what we’ve been doing as individuals.”

Walk this way: A day after drawing 11 walks against Milwaukee, the Cubs added seven more Friday to grow their league-leading total to 121.

“You see up and down the lineup, it’s been tough on opposing pitchers so far with how great guys are taking their approach up there and following through with their plan,” second baseman Ben Zobrist said. “If they’re not getting what they’re looking for, they’re taking their base.”

WHITE SOX

Ventura sticks with starter Danks – for now

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

BALTIMORE – At least for now, struggling left-hander John Danks will remain in the White Sox’s pitching rotation.

Manager Robin Ventura said the veteran left-hander, who fell to 0-4 in four starts in the Sox’s 10-2 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday that halted the team’s six-game winning streak, will start Wednesday against the Boston Red Sox at U.S. Cellular Field.

“We’re kind of past – you’re sitting there going through it – he was just in the middle of the plate,” Ventura said of Danks’ Thursday outing in which he gave up six runs on two walks and nine hits including two homers. “I think he has a good changeup, still battles and

all that stuff. I know he’s frustrated, but where we’re at, we need him to battle, and at this point, that’s what we’re doing.”

Danks was a picture of dejection in a corner of the visitors clubhouse Thursday night.

Since his shoulder surgery during the 2012 season, he is 22-44 and has pitched to ERAs of 4.75, 4.74 and 4.71 in the three full seasons since. This season, Danks has a 7.25 ERA with 11 walks and 28 hits allowed in 221/3 innings.

Working with an 88 mph four-seam fastball and sinker, Danks knows his command has to be almost razor sharp to keep his team in a game.

“I’m in no position to pitch from behind, deep, long at-bats,” Danks said Thursday.

“I’ve got enough to worry about

here than anything else. I’ll be ready to go. I’ll work hard. I’m not going to pout or anything. Never have or never will.

I guess it’s part of it. I don’t know. It’s not easy, but there’s only one thing to do and that’s work hard and be ready to take the ball.”

The Sox took a 16-7 record into their game against the Orioles Friday with Danks owning four of the losses. Chris Sale, Jose Quintana, Mat Latos and – with the exception of one start – Friday starter Carlos Rodon have been outstanding.

“There’s 24 guys in there that are setting the world on fire,” Danks said.

“That’s probably the most disappointing part of it. Shoot man, we were hot.

And still are. These guys are going to be bounce back and we’ll be fine. But [darn], got in the way of something special tonight.”

BALTIMORE – When it becomes an actual story that the White Sox played bad defense, that’s called improvement.

There’s one way of looking at a 6-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Friday at cold and damp Camden Yards.

“We didn’t glove it very well, which is uncharacteristic of us,” manager Robin Ventura said. “Bad night with the glove.”

The Sox had about three or four bad nights with the glove every week last season, when they finished 10 games below .500. They’re still eight games above .500 after this sluggish loss at 16-8, thanks in large part to a crisper defensive unit that has supported the American League’s best pitching staff. Their 16-7 record going in was tied with eight other teams for the fourth best start in franchise history, most recently in 2005 and 2006.

Nolan Reimold’s three-run homer against left-hander Carlos Rodon broke a three-all tie after the Sox spotted the O’s, who are 9-1 at home, a 3-1 lead during an ugly fifth inning around the middle of the infield.

Rodon, who breezed through the first 11 batters he faced, allowed three runs in the fifth when second baseman Brett Lawrie and shortstop Jimmy Rollins both botched routine double plays, Lawrie appearing to make a throw to Rollins before he had possession of Matt Wieters’ grounder and Rollins stumbling and

“That’s on me. It can’t happen,” Rodon said. “It’s a different inning if I don’t walk that leadoff guy (Adam Jones). Say I get him out, and it’s a different, 1-2-3 inning. Those guys are trying as hard as they can. Those are the best players out there.”

Such has been the mood in the Sox’s clubhouse during mostly good times and bad. Nobody pointing fingers, everybody talking up the team game.

“If one guy makes an error, the other guy picks him up,” said third baseman Todd Frazier, who caught Jones in a rundown during for the first out of that inning to give Rodon a chance to escape.

“It happens,” Frazier said. “Nothing you can do about it. We came back and tied it up. Things could have a different way here or there, but those mistakes will happen. We’re still good defensively, no problems there. One bad break, what are you going to do?”

Trailing 3-1, the Sox picked up a run in the sixth on Jose Abreu’s jam-shot single to right against Orioles starter Mike Wright and then loaded the bases when Frazier walked, but Jones, the Orioles AP photo center fielder, gloved Melky Cabrera’s White Sox third baseman Todd Frazier misplays a ground ball hit by the Orioles’ Nolan sinking liner and threw out Rollins at home for an inning-ending double play.

Lawrie made amends for his error by air-mailing a relay after taking a feed even reach for. The first two runs came leading off the seventh with a home run from Lawrie on Joey Rickard’s ground- on Jonathan Schoop’s two-run single. to left, his second of the season, to tie the er.

14 NASCAR SPRINT CUP: TALLADEGA

Stewart still miffed by $35,000 fine

Driver uncertain what he said to upset NASCAR

By JENNA FRYER

The Associated Press TALLADEGA, Ala. – It’s been an action-packed week for Tony Stewart since his return to a race car after a back injury sidelined him the first eight races of the season.

Upon his return, he was promptly fined $35,000 by NASCAR for criticizing the series about safety surrounding lug nuts. He then ran his first race since November, then participated in the final tire test of his career over two days this week at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Now he’s scheduled for a short weekend at Talladega Superspeedway, where Ty Dillon will be his relief driver to help Stewart avoid hurting his back again.

But all the talk Friday was about his fine, which wasn’t lifted even after NASCAR heeded to concerns.

Stewart said he still doesn’t understand what he said to warrant the penalty.

“You hate to have to pay $35,000 to get someone’s attention, but apparently that’s what it took,” Stewart said. “I’ve got questions, too, that I’d like to have answers to. I’m still wondering why I’m paying a $35,000 fine for something that got changed three days later.”

NASCAR last season stopped polic-

NASCAR driver Tony Stewart signs autographs Friday before heading to his car before practice for Sunday’s race at Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Ala. ing how many lug nuts teams were using, and it evolved into many crews using less than the standard five. It led to a rash of loose wheels, and several drivers and crew chiefs were critical of the safety aspects.

But it wasn’t until Stewart spoke up that NASCAR snapped to attention. He was the only one fined.

On Monday of this week, NASCAR said it will check tires before and after the race for all five lug nuts.

“The crazy part was I wasn’t the first person that brought it up. I was down the food chain of guys that had already discussed it and talked about it,” he

said. “I talked about it and got my hand slapped. Obviously, it was the way that I talked about it, which I’m still trying to figure out exactly what I said or what the word or the phrase was that got me in trouble. When it comes to something like that that is a safety issue, fine or not, I think you’ve got to speak your mind and you’ve got to be honest about it.

“I hope this doesn’t discourage drivers for standing up for what they believe and what they think is right for everybody.”

The fine caught the attention of the Sprint Cup Drivers Council, which said it would pay Stewart’s fine. Stewart is one of the nine drivers on the council but didn’t learn the other eight planned to pay his fine until after it was decided.

He said he didn’t want them to pay his fine, and it was decided the money they pledged instead would go to Autism Delaware.

“We did it collectively as a group and that’s something I’m really proud of with this Driver Council, is how the drivers are united about everything we’re doing,” Stewart said. “This was the first time that something had happened where somebody in the Council got a penalty for speaking an opinion.

For them to show that kind of support and show we’re all one unit, that’s something you don’t normally see and haven’t seen in this sport.”

Stewart only plans to race Sunday until the first caution, and then he’ll give up his seat to Dillon. Stewart crashed an all-terrain vehicle the week before the season opened and ruptured a vertebra that caused him to miss the first eight

races of his final season in NASCAR. He’s retiring at the end of the year.

Dillon shared the No. 14 Chevrolet with Brian Vickers while Stewart was sidelined, and Stewart will drive Sunday with Dillon’s seat to make it a seamless driver change.

“I can’t thank Stewart-Haas and their organization enough for giving me the opportunity to fill in this year,” Dillon said. “Not only has it helped me with my career and getting better as race car driver, but it’s helped me show people that I can get the job done.

“I feel like I’m ready to be in the (Cup) series full-time as a driver, mentally and physically.”

NASCAR already has said that if Dillon wins Sunday, it would count toward Stewart’s attempt to qualify for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

Dillon didn’t care whether Stewart would be credited with the win.

“First of all, it would mean I won a Sprint Cup race,” he said. “On top of that, to be able to get Tony a step closer to be locked into the Chase would be really cool. If it all comes together and we do win the race, I’m sure it will be a heck of a party and everybody is going to be happy.”

Stewart wasn’t so sure he agreed with NASCAR’s ruling, even though he needs a win and has to climb into the top 30 in points to make it into the Chase.

“I don’t think I will feel good about it if I were to get a spot that way,” Stewart said. “I know I wouldn’t feel good about it. I think for me to make the Chase, it needs to be because I ran the whole race and won the race. Not started it and somebody else won it for me.”

16 COLLEGE FOOTBALL: MINNESOTA

Streveler will transfer to S. Dakota

Marian grad immediately eligible at FCS school

By MIKE DeFABO

mdefabo@shawmedia.com Marian Central graduate Chris Streveler has found the second chance he wanted.

Friday, he decided he will transfer to South Dakota, where he hopes to play quarterback in the Coyotes’ no-huddle, spread offense.

After shuffling between four positions over three seasons at Minnesota, playing time was the biggest factor when Streveler was granted his release from the Minnesota football program April 15. He hopes the Football Championship Subdivision school offers more opportunities to contribute.

“I’m really just trying to have some fun and win some games,” Streveler said. “The whole reason I left is I really want to get on the field. I’m excited to get that opportunity.”

The 6-foot-2, 223-pounder brings

“I really just wanted to play quarterback. I think they give me a good opportunity there.”

Chris Streveler

On his decision to transfer from Minnesota to South Dakota two years of eligibility with him to USD and is eligible to play immediately.

When Streveler initially was granted his release from Minnesota, he kept his options open and considered playing multiple positions. He visited USD last weekend and said “it couldn’t have gone any better.”

“I really just wanted to play quarterback,” Streveler said. “I was toeing the line between playing receiver and quarterback. I was hearing

out a bunch of different schools. I really just wanted to play quarterback. I think they give me a good opportunity there.”

USD is set to return three quarterbacks next season. Ryan Saeger presents the toughest challenge.

A starter for all 11 games last season as a junior, Saeger completed 165 passes for 1,984 yards, 12 touchdowns and seven interceptions.

Still, Streveler, a two-time Northwest Herald Football Player of the Year from Crystal Lake, is looking forward to a fresh start.

“I’m beyond excited,” Streveler said. “To have this opportunity to play somewhere where I’ll hopefully have a pretty good shot to get on the field, it’s definitely something I’m not taking for granted. I’m very thankful to have the opportunity.

“I’m really excited about it, but at the same time, I know it’s just the beginning. The real work starts pretty soon.”
