Good morning, McHenry County ...

May looks better after ‘average’ April I was left a bit dumbstruck when I checked my inbox Tuesday morning and saw an email with this slug: “Weather was average for April in Illinois.”

My first thought was: If April was average, I’d hate to see what below average feels like. Last month sure seemed like it was colder than usual most days.

I did a little digging and came up with the following statistic, based on data taken at O’Hare International Airport: On 17 days last month, the actual high temperature was below average for the time of year. On 11 days, it was above average. And on two days, it was about the same.

So how does that make April’s weather average? On several of the warmer days, temperatures were significantly warmer than average, some by 20 degrees or more. Remember those few midmonth days in the 80s? So, in my

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Dan McCaleb mind anyway, that helped skew the data.

The good news is that, after today, things are starting to look up in May. After a high in the 50s today, I see nothing from forecasters but 60s and 70s for the next few weeks.

If that’s just average, I’ll take it. How about you?

ST. LOUIS – Twice in the past three months, juries have awarded tens millions of dollars to ovarian cancer victims who blamed Johnson & Johnson talcum powder for their illness – among the first verdicts in a courtroom assault by law firms that are recruiting clients through TV ads and the Internet. While the link between ovarian cancer and talc is a matter of scientific dispute, a St. Louis jury Monday ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay $55 million to a South Dakota survivor of the disease.

In February, another St. Louis jury awarded $72 million to relatives of an Alabama woman who died of ovarian cancer. They are among several hundred lawsuits claiming that regularly applying products such as Johnson’s Baby Powder and Shower to Shower can cause the cancer.

TAKING CARE TO PREVENT EYE STRAIN

Experts give tips to lessen effect of digital devices on vision

By CAITLIN SWIECA

cswieca@shawmedia.com CARY – As an optometrist for Johnson Eye Care, Rebecca Schoepke reads all the latest studies about the relationship between eye strain and digital device use.

As a mother of four, Schoepke said having all that information doesn’t make the dilemma about how to best curb the use of those devices any easier.

“My kids are on [digital devices] all the time,” Schoepke said. “I know they could and probably will have these issues at some point, but it’s hard to limit the technology they’re exposed to because they need it for school.”

Rebecca Preventing digital Schoepke, eye strain has optometrist become more and more difficult as technology has become more ingrained in daily life, according to the 2016 Digital Eye Strain Report from The Vision Council.

This year’s study found 65 percent of Americans reported experiencing symptoms of digital eye strain, which is characterized by dry, irritated eyes, blurred vision and neck

More than 90 percent of those reporting digital eye strain use devices for two or more hours each day, and 77 percent said they use two or more devices simultaneously, both factors that increase the risk for strain.

Longer-term issues can result from exposure to blue wavelength

light, which emits from virtually every digital device as well as light-emitting fixtures, according to The Vision Council. Blue light tends to penetrate deeper into the eye, and cumulative exposure to it is linked to slow degeneration of the retina.

across generations, although each age group tends to use digital screens differently.

Village president could lose home

‘‘

Clerk’s office: Jacobson hasn’t paid property taxes for 3 years

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com HEBRON – Village President John Jacobson could lose his home this summer after failing to pay three years of property taxes, according to information provided by the McHenry County Clerk’s Office.

The residence, at 12305 Jacobs Drive, was given to Jacobson by his deceased brother, Larry E. Jacobson, according to his will filed with the McHenry County Circuit Clerk’s Office in March 2009.

Jacobson owes $12,335.84 on the Hebron property as of Tuesday – an amount that encompasses three years of unpaid property taxes, according to the clerk’s office.

Melissa Massey, McHenry County tax redemption clerk, said Jacobson must pay the entire amount by July 26 or property ownership will be transferred to West Town Buyers Group.

West Town Buyers Group filed a petition Feb. 25 after buying Jacobson’s 2012, 2013 and 2014 taxes in a tax sale. If Jacobson pays the taxes in full before the July date, he can reobtain ownership of the property.

This just adds to a worsening image of the person we’re dealing with. As public people, we have to be the example.”

Drew Georgi, Hebron Village Board

trustee

The 68-year-old faces drug and firearms charges after he was arrested in the wake a March 17 incident in which police said Jacobson was found unconscious in his bathroom after a night of smoking crack and drinking.

Jacobson was arraigned April 26 before McHenry County Judge Michael Feetterer and pleaded not guilty to unlawful possession of a controlled substance, a Class 4 felony; unlawful possession of a firearm without a requisite firearms owner identification card, a Class 3 felony; two counts of unlawful possession of firearm ammunition and unlawful pos-

session of drug paraphernalia.

He is expected to next appear in court on June 7.

Jacobson said during the last village board meeting April 18 that he does not plan to resign at this time, despite a petition signed by 232 residents handed over at the meeting asking him to step down.

Hebron Village Board Trustee Drew Georgi said that if Jacobson is evicted from his home and the board was able to prove that Jacobson no longer lived within the village limits because of the tax issues, they could call a meeting and have him removed from office the same day, according to the municipal code.

Any process the board potentially could pursue to oust Jacobson would be lengthy, Georgi said. For that reason, Georgi said, he is looking into ways to adopt suspension or unpaid leave policies into the municipal code for instances such as this.

“This just adds to a worsening image of the person we’re dealing with,” Georgi said. “As public people, we have to be the example.”

Attempts to contact Jacobson on Tuesday were unsuccessful.

County Board to meet, discuss Randall Road widening project KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Board will meet in a Committee of the Whole that could help determine the fate of the Randall Road widening and improvement project.

Board members after a lengthy debate Tuesday morning agreed to meet to discuss not only the future of the project, but also to resolve what Chairman Joe Gottemoller called a problem with the board’s committee structure that has contributed to an impasse regarding allocating more money for land acquisition.

The board’s Transportation Committee voted to reject spending an additional $10 million toward land purchase. The Finance and Audit Committee, which also has to approve expenditures, did not do so, but sent the request back to Transportation.

“This morning, I’m asking this board to give guidance to the rest of the board as to the acquisition of Randall Road right of way; and while we’re at it, the board needs to decide how we’re going to move forward on Randall Road,” said Gottemoller, R-Crystal Lake. “Whether we’re in favor of it or against it, that’s all fine, but I think we have to solve the underlying committee problem, as to how we’re going to go forward with this board.”

A date for the Committee of the Whole had not been set as of late Tuesday afternoon. Such meetings are used for discussion, but no votes are taken.

A growing faction of the County Board has questioned whether the proposed $97 million improvement project is appropriate in its current form, or even necessary at all.

It has been on the County Board’s list of road improvements since 2002, and the first study of it began 12 years ago.

Gottemoller said at least $9 million has been spent to date.

The project is planned to be taken down in two phases. The first would widen Randall Road to six lanes from Harnish Drive in Algonquin north to Polaris Drive in Lake in the Hills. That would include improving its intersection with Algonquin Road by adding more turn lanes and eliminating some entry points.

The second phase would widen the road to six lanes from Polaris Drive north to Ackman Road.

Before the debate even started, officials from both Algonquin and Lake in the Hills stressed that the improvements

Lake in the Hills Village President Paul Mulcahy said a major business that wants to move into the vacant Dominick’s at the intersection is closely watching what the County Board does with the improvements. Mulcahy said that businesses along Randall Road pay sales, property and motor-fuel taxes, and deserve the work to reduce Paul traffic congestion.

Mulcahy “The plan that is currently on the table for Randall Road, and the intersection of Randall and Algonquin [roads], provides those things that they have been paying for for 20 years.

Please move the Randall Road project forward. Improve that intersection … you owe that to all the residents of McHenry County. It will benefit all the residents of McHenry County,” Mulcahy said.

Algonquin Village President John Schmitt told the County Board that congestion will only get worse, and cited a Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning statistic that claims McHenry County will grow to more than 500,000

people in the coming decades.

He said the tax revenue the county gets from Algonquin business along Randall Road – $120 million in sales tax, $120 million in mass-transit road tax, and $800,000 in property taxes – is in jeopardy without improvements.

“You can say, ‘Well, it’s there,’ but it will go away. It will reduce if we allow the traffic to stagnate and don’t improve Randall Road,” Schmitt said.

Board members on both sides of the issue sounded off before making the decision to hold a special meeting dedicated to the Randall Road issue.

Michael Rein, R-Woodstock, said he believes the improvement is unnecessary and that dire warnings of gridlock John Schmitt are overblown. Member Michael Walkup, R-Crystal Lake, questioned CMAP’s population projections, pointing out that the county in recent years has lost population and last year gained only several hundred more residents.

“It’s not that bad. Yes, it’s traffic. But that’s what normal rush hour is,” Rein said.

But supporters, such as Carolyn Schofield, R-Crystal Lake, called the improvements absolutely necessary. She said she picks routes to avoid having to drive through the intersection of Randall and Algonquin roads.

“I didn’t move out to McHenry County to be in the middle of Schaumburg,” Schofield said.

McHENRY – McHenry County authorities said Tuesday they believe that speed might have been a factor in a Route 120 crash Monday that killed a 34-year-old McHenry man and injured his wife.

The driver, Cainen Riemann, was driving a 2010 Chevrolet Corvette east on Route 120 about 6:30 p.m. when, for unknown reasons, the car went out of control east of the intersection of Chapel Hill Road, according to a news release from the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

The car left the road and struck several trees on the south side of the road before coming to rest upright in a wooded area in the 2000 block of Route 120, police said.

Cainen Riemann and his passenger were trapped in the vehicle, police said. The McHenry Township Fire Protection District responded and extricated both people from the car.

Police department earns accreditation NORTHWEST HERALD

BARRINGTON HILLS – The Barrington Hills Police Department recently was awarded CALEA accreditation, a professional standard for law enforcement agencies.

To receive CALEA (Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies) accreditation, a police department has to demonstrate a commitment to law enforcement excellence by living up to a body of standards deemed essential to the protection of the life, health, safety and rights of the citizens it serves, a village official said.

VIEWS Joan Oliver gether an emergency kit.

The National Weather Service www. spc.noaa.gov/faq/tornado/safety.html also offers some helpful tips: • At home, practice a family tornado drill at least once a year.

• Store protective coverings (mattress, sleeping bags, thick blankets, etc.) in or next to your shelter space.

• Avoid windows.

• Get in the basement or under some kind of sturdy protection (heavy table or work bench) or cover yourself with a mattress or sleeping bag.

• Know where very heavy objects (pianos, refrigerators, waterbeds, etc.) rest on the floor above and do not go under them.

• If you do not have a basement, go to the lowest floor and into an interior room. A closet or a bathroom is recommended.

• If you’re in a vehicle, remember that they are easily tossed and destroyed by tornadoes.

Your best bet is to take shelter in a

sturdy building. If that’s not possible, lie flat in a low spot or ditch as far from the road as possible to avoid flying vehicles. Do not park under a bridge or underpass.

Now also is a good time to make a “go kit” if you don’t already have one.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency suggests that families have enough food, water and supplies on hand to go for at least 72 hours.

A number of websites provide useful information about how to build a kit: • FEMA: ready.gov • American Red Cross: redcross.org • Gear Up Get Ready: gearupgetready.org • National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration: noaa.gov Here’s hoping that we don’t have to use those go kits and experience anything like what our neighbors in Fairdale and Coal City did last year.

However, if we’re prepared, that’s one fewer thing we have to be worried about.

MARENGO – A collision Tuesday between a semitractor trailer and a pickup truck near Marengo sent a man to the hospital with minor injuries, a fire official said.

The Marengo Fire Protection District was dispatched about 11 a.m. to the intersection of Route 176 and Millstream Road for a report of a head-on crash, Capt.

John Kimmel said.

When crews arrived, they found both vehicles with minor damage on Millstream Road, Kimmel said.

It appeared the semi was starting to turn north onto Millstream when the crash occurred, he said.

The pickup truck’s driver was taken to Centegra Hospital – Woodstock to be evaluated, and the semi’s driver refused treatment, Kimmel said.

The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office also responded, but could not immediately be reached for comment Tuesday.

Since we live in Illinois, we should be used to the chaotic weather changes that always seem to accompany what we call spring. So it’s not surprising that we’ve had a range of temperatures, wind speeds and precipitation for the past month or so.

Of course, spring also brings with it the chance of weather more severe than the run-of-the-mill showers that bring flowers.

A reminder of this came last week when some parts of our area got dimesized and larger hail. Count the Oliver residence among those hit by that particular phenomenon.

This caused a bit of a bump in my blood pressure, since I’m well aware that hail is one of the many signs of a tornado.

Thankfully, the hail ended almost as quickly as it began, but it got me thinking that I’d better go through my annual tornado safety tips.

In case you didn’t know, you can get a lot of information about getting prepared from the McHenry County Emergency Management’s website at McHenryAware.com. There you’ll find information how to get text alerts, how to use the county’s 211 system and a link to templates for putting to-

LOCAL BRIEF

Village to allow video gaming on trial basis

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com BULL VALLEY – Video gaming now will be allowed in Bull Valley, at least for a year, Village Administrator Richard Vance said.

Although the village opted out of video gaming when it had the option to do so in 2012, the Bull Valley Board of Trustees passed an ordinance Friday that allows video gaming on a trial basis for one year, he said.

Village Clerk Phyllis Keinz said the vote was unanimous, and all trustees were present.

In 2012, a village survey showed most residents opposed video gaming, Village President Emily Berendt has said.

However, new results from a March survey showed 39 individuals voted in favor of allowing video gaming, while 43 voted to allow it for a one-year trial, and 12 were opposed, she said.

“Our main concern was how our residents felt; but between the last survey

Danube Symphony River Cruise/Oktoberfest

and this survey, it really did a 360, and there was a majority that was in favor of it,” Vance said.

The positive feedback is what he believed caused the board to change its mind, Vance said.

Vance said the Boone Creek Golf Course, at 6912 Mason Hill Road, is the only business in the village that is in the application process for a video gaming license. Once approved, licenses must be renewed every year, Vance said.

Boone Creek Golf Emily Course asking for a liBerendt cense is what prompted the village to revisit its policy, Berendt said. A business must have a liquor license to get a video gaming license, Berendt said, and the only businesses in Bull Valley with a liquor license other than the golf club are the Woodstock Country Club and the Loyola University Retreat and Ecology Campus, she said.

MARENGO – A two-vehicle crash Tuesday outside Marengo sent one person to the hospital, officials said.

Marengo Fire Protection District Capt. John Kimmel said the department responded about 3 p.m. to Route 20 and West Union Road.

The driver of a 2010 Chrysler Town and Country minivan was on southbound Route 20 and turned left onto West Union Road in front of a 2015 Chevrolet Cruze, McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Aimee Knop said.

The driver of the van, 77-year-old Barbara J. Alvarez of Union, was issued a ticket for failure to yield.

The minivan was on its side when crews arrived, Kimmel said, and the back window of the van had to be broken so the driver could exit.

The driver, who was the only occupant of the van, was uninjured, Kimmel said.

The driver of the second vehicle was transported with minor injuries to OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center in Rockford, officials said.

Knop said the driver was a 51-year-old

11

woman from Loves Park, and there were no passengers in that vehicle, either.

Both vehicles were towed, Kimmel said, and the intersection was closed for about 20 minutes.

Knop said both drivers were wearing their seat belts.

eyes from blue light, and she likes her kids to wear nonprescription glasses to protect their eyes when possible.

She also said manufacturers of contact lenses have released several products within the past year to combat dry eyes.

Morfoot said using glasses rather than contact lenses while working on a screen can lessen complications because humans tend to blink less while using a screen, which dries out contact lenses.

Medical companies aren’t the only ones addressing the issue – Morfoot said the fact that Apple developed a “night mode” that limits blue light shows the company is aware of digital eye strain.

One of his most important recommendations is to avoid screen time for the hour before going to bed. Although parents often worry about their children’s exposure, he said, it’s a practice everyone should adopt.

“I’ll talk to a mom or dad about their children and tell them to not use screens an hour before bed,” Morfoot said. “They’ll say, ‘See, Johnny? I told you.’ It actually applies for everybody.”

gonquin’s Precision Eye Care said talking to patients about their use of digital devices has become a routine part of assessing the needs of patients during exams.

The problem has grown, he said, because many people spend the majority of their workdays on a screen. Morfoot said he often begins by telling patients to control the circumstances of their work with digital devices.

“No. 1, I start with getting an environment to be as comfortable as possible,” Morfoot said. “If you’re going to be on the computer, you have to focus on where that screen is in relation to your eyes and your proper seated position.”

Some medical solutions to the issue also have been developed as the problem has grown. Morfoot said he can prescribe digital lenses specifically for computer use, which have a more uniform prescription throughout the whole lens, to patients younger than age 40.

Those older than 40 who often use traditional bifocals can take advantage of progressive lenses, which provide an easy progression of lens powers for different viewing distances, Morfoot said.

Schoepke also said some available nonglare lens coatings can protect the

DANIEL MICHAEL GRANT Born: March 5, 1951 Died: May 1, 2016

Daniel Michael Grant, of Sycamore, died peacefully in his home in the presence of his loving family on Sunday, May 1, 2016.

A man of strong Catholic faith, he was born March 5, 1951, in Franklin Park, IL, where he attended St. Gertrude Elementary School.

He graduated from Woodstock High School (Class of 1969), where he met some of his dearest lifelong friends, and went on to major in marketing at Northern Illinois University.

After a successful career in sales and sales management for Burroughs Corporation, Shared Medical Systems and XA Systems, Dan launched Sales Consultants of Western McHenry County, later called The McHenry Group, in 1991.

Respected and loved by his employees for his integrity and generosity, Dan supported each one of them in every way he could, professionally or personally.

He especially loved mentoring young people as they began their careers, taking time to review resumes, practice interviewing techniques, even connecting them to potential employers, when he wasn’t hiring them himself. He blessed many lives in this way.

Dan was a dedicated sports fan, golfer and bowler. What he may have lacked in talent on the golf course he made up for with his quick-witted and self-deprecating sense of humor.

A lifelong fan of the Chicago White Sox, long-suffering fan of the Chicago Bears and proud fan of the NIU Huskies, he loved sharing in these trials and tribulations with good friends. Dan had a way of appreciating the simple things in life.

He enjoyed seeing the robins return in the spring and watching the cardinals visit his bird feeder; he loved watching the sunrise and sunset from the many beaches he visited over the years.

There was no escaping “Thunder” Dan’s wonderful sense of humor and sharp wit, which was evident in his office sales contests, celebrations, hilarious voicemails,

I still have fond memories of your outgoing personality and your warm friendly smile. Those memories will continue to live on with myself, your family, and your friends forever. We all still miss you. May you rest in peace with your mother and father who have joined you.

Last funeral held for 8 slain in Ohio

three children, 20-year-old Clarence “Frankie” Rhoden, 16-year-old Christopher Jr., and 19-year-old Hanna; and Christopher Rhoden Sr.’s brother, 44-year-old Kenneth Rhoden.

Services for a Rhoden cousin, Gary Rhoden, 38, and Frankie Rhoden’s fiancee, 20-year-old Hannah Gilley, were held last week. Some mourners arrived for Tuesday’s halfhour service at Dry Run Church of Christ in West Portsmouth wearing blue jeans and bright orange shirts with the words “Rhoden Proud, Rhoden Strong.” A sign out front quoted a Bible verse: “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”

Inside, near the caskets decorated with flowers and ribbons in the victims’ favorite colors, Christopher and Kenneth’s sister tearfully urged the crowd to be forgiving and loving, The Columbus Dispatch reported.

“Don’t take life for granted. In the blink of an eye, everything can change,” Wilma McCoy said.

Speaking for the family, a victim’s advocate from the Pike County prosecutor’s office said they’re grateful for the support they’ve received. He repeated their plea that anyone with information about the case contact investigators.

“Hopefully soon, some healing will begin,” advocate David Dickerson said.

The Associated Press

WEST PORTSMOUTH, Ohio – Traffic stopped for miles as black hearses left a church and snaked past mobile homes, weathered shops and green fields, leading a procession of mourners in more than 150 vehicles.

The burials Tuesday of six relatives at a hillside cemetery in southern Ohio followed the third and final funeral for the eight family members killed in what authorities said was a planned massacre targeting them.

Mourners crowded under blue tents shielding the caskets from overcast skies and said goodbyes as sheriff’s deputies stood in the background. Afterward, they ambled back down the hill, leaving the caskets in the country quiet – white for the two women, brown for the three men and the teenage boy.

The Rhoden family members were found dead April 22 at four homes near Piketon, about 80 miles east of Cincinnati. All eight were shot in the head; some had other gunshot wounds and bruising, said authorities still trying to determine who killed them and why. Two babies and a young child were unharmed.

The funeral honored 40-year-old Christopher Rhoden; his ex-wife, 37-year-old Dana Rhoden; their

Chicago students can use bathrooms by gender ID

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Chicago Public Schools will allow transgender students and employees to use bathrooms and locker rooms corresponding to their gender identities, according to guidelines released Tuesday by the nation’s third-largest school district.

The policy, which also applies to “gender nonconforming students,” covers all education opportunities, including overnight field trips, and allows for alternative arrangements if requested, such as a single-stall restroom or separate changing schedule.

“CPS, like much of the country, has become far more aware of the needs and experiences of the transgender community, and it’s crucial for CPS guidelines to reflect our commitment to promoting safe and inclusive schools,” district Chief Education Officer Janice Jackson said in a statement.

Legislative Democrats weighing higher taxes for the wealthy

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois House Democrats have delayed a measure to tax millionaires at higher rates if voters approved the plan in November.

Democratic state Rep. Christian Mitchell, the bill’s sponsor, said he plans to bring up the proposal Wednesday. Lawmakers were expected to consider the bill Tuesday, but Mitchell said he was trying to get more support and give absent members a chance to vote.

The proposal would change the Illinois Constitution so people would be taxed based on their earnings. A companion bill would set the rates if voters agree to change the constitution.

Currently, everyone pays 3.75 percent income tax. Democrats propose to increase rates to

Chicago Public Schools chief educational officer gender people use has become a focus in the national debate over anti-discrimination laws. North Carolina recently enacted a controversial law requiring transgender people to use bathrooms in state government buildings and public schools that match the gender on their birth certificates. Meanwhile, other major school districts – including New York and Los Angeles – already have student policies similar to Chicago’s. Last month, a Los Angeles high school opened the district’s first gender-neutral bathroom.

Bipartisan panel votes against closing detention center

SPRINGFIELD – A bipartisan legislative oversight panel Tuesday opposed Gov. Bruce Rauner’s plan to shutter the youth detention center in Kewanee, amid hopes for reprieve, repurposing or at least a plan for disposing of the 15-year-old facility.

The Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability’s 5-6 vote against closure is advisory, but lawmakers’ comments reflected uneasiness with the delicate topic of housing and treating youthful offenders as well as the state’s track record on mothballing obsolete sites.

The Republican governor’s announcement in February that he would close the state’s newest youth detention center – opened in 2001 – was hailed by civil-rights advocates who

Chicago officials said the updated guidelines build on 2014 policy requiring schools to provide transgender students and gender nonconforming students with the same opportunities to participate in physical education, sexual health education, sports, clubs and school events. Under the new rules, administrators at schools will make confidential “support plans” for each student.

School officials consulted legal and medical experts in writing the guidelines and said individual accommoda-

have railed for years against incarcerating teenagers. And the population is declining.

“We have 1,000 beds in the system and 420 kids,” Department of Juvenile Justice Director Candice Jones told the commission. “I need to provide for those kids because we also have a resource problem in our state.”

Jones was referring to the multibillion-dollar budget deficit exacerbated by a budget standoff between Rauner and legislative Democrats, now entering its 11th month.

Jones said half of the state’s young offenders are from Cook County and that detention facilities should be located near family, educational institutions, mental health services, and future job opportunities or skills training.

Peoria Republican Sen. Chuck Weaver and Democratic Rep. Mike Smiddy from Hillsdale urged keeping Kewanee open, saying that as the newest youth site, it is the most efficient to operate, along with it being less costly to run per inmate than other facilities in Chicago, Harrisburg, Grafton, St. Charles and Warrenville.

tions will be considered on a case-bycase basis. Students will also have the right to be addressed by a name and pronoun “corresponding to the gender identity they consistently assert at school.”

Nearly 400,000 students attend 660 public schools in Chicago.

Advocacy groups, including Equality Illinois, praised the move Tuesday as a way to promote equality.

However, the issue has generated opposition in Illinois before. Some parents protested in suburban Chicago when a transgender student, who was born male, sought girls’ locker room access. The girl filed a grievance with the U.S. Department of Education’s civil-rights office after being denied unrestricted access. Federal officials found the district violated the student’s rights under Title IX and last year reached an agreement for her to use the locker room. The district has since put privacy stalls in both the girls and boys locker rooms.

Board members voted Monday night to appoint Ann Rondeau as the sixth president of the state’s largest community college. She was chosen for the position over Elgin Community College President David Sam and Navarro College District President Barbara Kavalier.

Trustee Charles Bernstein said he supports the resolution to name Rondeau the next college president because “she will establish trust, she will listen, and she will form the coalitions that

this college needs in order to overcome our current challenges and to achieve excellence in all areas.”

Rondeau is a partner and consultant with IBM Watson Group.

She has served as president of the National Defense University in Washington, D.C., and as a vice admiral in the U.S. Navy.

“The depth and breadth of her experience, knowledge and understanding is exactly what we need at College of DuPage at this time,” Bernstein said.

In October, the board fired former College of DuPage President Robert Breuder in the wake of an internal investigation, which found evidence of “misconduct and mismanagement.”

Board Vice Chairman David Olsen said after the vote that Rondeau is someone “who really can focus on restoring the public trust,” adding that she has emphasized the importance of transparency and accountability.

On Monday, the board also voted that Rondeau’s salary wouldn’t exceed $325,000 annually, with an evaluation occurring at the beginning of every December.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Detroit teachers to return a news conference. Passengers fled the bus, and the driver hit after 2-day sick-out

DETROIT – Detroit teachers who had closed city schools for two days by calling out sick said Tuesday they would return to the classroom after receiving assurance from the district’s manager they would be paid.

The move by the Detroit Federation of Teachers came hours after Michigan lawmakers advanced a $500 million plan to restructure Detroit public schools by creating a new district.

The vote was intended to ease teachers’ fears they might not get paid if the district runs out of cash. But the union quickly blasted the legislation endorsed by the House Appropriations Committee. It would forbid existing labor agreements from transferring to the new district and restrict collective bargaining over work schedules and school calendars.

Cruz ends presidential bid after loss in Indiana

By JULIE PACE and SCOTT BAUER The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS – In a stunning triumph for a political outsider, Donald Trump all but clinched the Republican presidential nomination Tuesday with a resounding victory in Indiana that knocked rival Ted Cruz out of the race and cleared Trump’s path to a likely November face-off with Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.

Trump still needs about 200 delegates to formally secure the nomination, but Cruz’s decision to end his campaign removed his last major obstacle.

“Ted Cruz – I don’t know if he likes me or he doesn’t like me – but he is one hell of a competitor,” Trump said of his last fierce competitor whom he had dubbed “lyin’ Ted.” Trump, in a victory speech that was much lower-key than usual, promised victory in November, vowing anew to put “America first.”

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders eked out a victory over Clinton in Indiana, but the outcome will not slow the former secretary of state’s march to the Democratic nomination. Heading into Tuesday’s voting, Clinton had 92 percent of the delegates she needs.

“I know that the Clinton campaign thinks this campaign is over. They’re wrong,” Sanders said defiantly in an interview Tuesday night. But Clinton already has turned her attention to the general election.

She and Trump now plunge into a six-month battle for the presidency, with the future of America’s immigration laws, health care system and military posture around the world at stake.

While Clinton heads into the general election with significant advantages with minority voters and women, Democrats have vowed to not underestimate Trump as his

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz turns to his wife, Heidi, after a primary night campaign event Tuesday in Indianapolis. Cruz ended his presidential campaign, eliminating the biggest impediment to Donald Trump’s march to the Republican nomination.

Republican rivals did for too long.

For months, Republican leaders considered him a fringe candidate and banked on voters shifting toward more traditional contenders once the primary contests began. But Trump proved to be surprisingly durable, tapping into Republicans’ deep anger with party leaders and outlasting more than a dozen experienced political rivals.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus declared the race over, saying on Twitter that Trump would be the party’s presumptive nominee.

“We all need to unite and focus on defeating @HillaryClinton,” he wrote.

Indeed, Trump’s first challenge will be uniting a Republican Party that has been roiled by his candidacy.

While some GOP leaders have warmed to the real estate mogul, others have promised to never vote for him and see him as a threat to their party’s very existence.

Even before the Indiana results were finalized, some

conservative leaders were planning a Wednesday meeting to assess the viability of launching a third party candidacy to compete with him in the fall.

One outside group trying to stop Trump suggested it would shift its attention to helping Republicans in other races. Rory Cooper, a senior adviser to the Never Trump super PAC, said the group will help protect “Republican incumbents and down-ballot candidates, by distinguishing their values and principles from that of Trump, and protecting them from a wave election.”

Indiana was viewed as the last gasp for Cruz, the fiery Texas conservative. He campaigned aggressively in the state, securing the support of Indiana’s governor and announcing businesswoman Carly Fiorina as his running mate, but lost momentum in the closing days.

Cruz had clung to the hope that he could keep Trump from reaching the 1,237 delegates needed for the nomination and push the race to a rare contested convention.

BRIEF Police begin wider body camera use after months of testing

BOSTON – After months of testing, many of the nation’s big-city police forces are planning to expand their use of body cameras by the summer, but the number of officers with such gear still will be relatively small, an Associated Press review found.

The 2014 killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and other deaths at the hands of police around the U.S. have led to demands that officers be issued wearable cameras to deter misconduct and document shootings and other clashes.

But because of cost concerns, union resistance and other factors, the rollout has been slower than some cities envisioned.

An AP look at the nation’s 20 largest local departments found that Chicago has begun issuing the devices to more than 2,000 officers, or less than 17 percent of its roughly 12,000-member force, although it said it eventually will offer them across the department.

Philadelphia has begun equipping about 5 percent of its force and Houston nearly 6 percent.

U.S. combat death of Navy SEAL in Iraq reflects intensifying war

By ROBERT BURNS and SUSANNAH GEORGE The Associated Press

STUTTGART, Germany – The combat death of a U.S Navy SEAL who was advising Kurdish forces in Iraq coincides with a gradually deepening American role in fighting a resilient Islamic State, even as the Iraqis struggle to muster the military and political strength to defeat the militants.

Over the course of the nearly 2-year-old campaign, the Pentagon has slowly expanded the American military role. The strategy, criticized by some as incremental and inadequate, aims to ensure that the Iraqis do the ground combat, supported by U.S. airpower, special operations advisers and others.

As the Iraqis have gained competence and confidence and prepared an assault in hopes of retaking Mosul, the Pentagon has announced plans to put more U.S. troops in Iraq and place them closer to the front lines.

In Defense Secretary Ash Carter’s

McHenry County Youth Orchestras Proudly Present the Spring Benefit Concert

view, that means a greater chance for success. It also means more risk to U.S. troops, as he acknowledged Tuesday in announcing the latest death, the third of an American service member in combat in Iraq since the U.S.-led coalition launched its campaign against the Islamic State in the summer of 2014.

“It shows you it’s a serious fight that we have to wage in Iraq,” Carter said.

The SEAL was identified Tuesday as Charlie Keating IV, 31, who grew up in Phoenix and attended the Naval Academy before becoming a SEAL based out of Coronado, California.

Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey said Keating died in an Islamic State group attack near the city of Irbil.

Seven months ago, a special operations soldier, 39-year-old Master Sgt. Joshua L. Wheeler, was killed during a Kurdish-led raid on an Islamic State prison in northern Iraq. In March, a Marine artilleryman, Staff Sgt. Louis F. Cardin, 27, was killed when the militants launched a rocket attack on a newly established U.S. firebase

outside Mosul.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest said President Barack Obama had been briefed on the incident and extended condolences to Keating’s family. Earnest said the incident was a “vivid reminder” of the dangers facing U.S. troops in Iraq and Syria.

“They are taking grave risks to protect our country. We owe them a deep debt of gratitude,” Earnest said.

Keating’s death coincides with diverging trends in Iraq. On one hand, Iraqi forces trained and advised by Americans have scored significant battlefield gains in recent months, including the recapture of Ramadi and other advances against IS-held towns in Anbar province. On the other hand, political conflict in Baghdad fed by sectarian rivalry is threatening to derail the entire effort.

Carter said Monday that as the Iraqis gain battlefield momentum the Pentagon will pursue additional ways to support them,. Recently that has meant adding more U.S. troops to advise Iraqi brigade and battalion commanders closer to the fight.

NAIROBI, Kenya – A nearly 6-month-old girl was rescued Tuesday from the rubble of a building that collapsed last week, raising hopes for more survivors in the disaster that has left 23 people dead and 93 others missing.

The child, identified by the Kenya Red Cross as Dealeryn Saisi Wasike, was brought to the hospital about 6 a.m. after being found in the ruins of the seven-story building that collapsed Friday night.

The child was found unharmed in a washbasin, said Pius Masai of the National Disaster Management center which is coordinating the rescue mission. Furniture had created pockets preventing the columns from falling on her and allowing air to flow into the rubble, he said.

“She only cried when she was rescued from the debris,” Masai said.

“Otherwise, she had not made noise or given any indication that she was there.”

Celebration, cheers, hugs and

tears greeted the baby’s retrieval, Masai said. “Even us here, we now have hope that we will find some more people alive.” Unfortunately the baby’s mother was found dead, Masai said.

The baby’s father, Raslon Saisi Wasike, said his wife kept baby Dealeryn in a washtub when she was doing her household chores.

“Just imagine the child was found inside a washbasin ... she was lucky to be found. I feel happy,” Wasike said. He said he was at work when the news of the collapsed reached him and he tried to frantically reach his family.

The baby had no physical injuries and was being treated for dehydration, said Simon Ithai, a spokesman at the Kenyatta National Hospital.

A medical expert said the baby was lucky to survive. “It appears this baby was pretty well-nourished if it was able to survive for four days,” said Dr. Peter Sullivan, an associate professor of pediatrics at Oxford University. He said that it’s possible the baby’s body temperature dropped at night and slowed down her metabolism.

STUTTGART, Germany – U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter blasted what the U.S. and its allies see as Russian aggression in Europe, saying Tuesday that Moscow is “going backward in time” with warlike actions that compel an American military buildup on NATO’s eastern flank.

“We do not seek to make Russia an enemy,” Carter said at a ceremony to install a new head of the military’s U.S. European Command and top NATO commander in Europe. “But make no mistake: We will defend Ash Carter our allies, the rulesbased international order, and the positive future it affords us,” he said.

Carter’s remarks reflect U.S. aggravation with Moscow on multiple fronts, including its intervention in eastern Ukraine, its annexation of Crimea in 2014 and what Carter called Russian efforts to intimidate its Baltic neighbors – countries the United States is treaty-bound to defend because they are NATO members.

Carter said the “most disturbing” Russian rhetoric was about using nuclear weapons.

“Moscow’s nuclear saber-rattling raises troubling questions about Russia’s leaders’ commitment to strategic stability, their respect for norms against the use of nuclear weapons, and whether they respect the profound caution that nuclear-age leaders showed with regard to brandishing nuclear weapons,” he said.

The end of the Cold War with the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 was thought to have virtually ended the prospect of nuclear conflict with Moscow. But the speeches at Tuesday’s change-of-command ceremony emphasized the possibility of history repeating itself, or at least ending a period of warmer U.S.-Russian relations.

Senior White House officials said the U.S. and its partners were shifting into a new phase focused on military deterrence to Moscow. Additional NATO forces that will rotate through countries on Russia’s eastern flank will be enough to defend NATO countries if Russia were to attack, said the officials, who requested anonymity to discuss internal deliberations.

To that end, the U.S. plans to add a third U.S. Army combat brigade in Europe in the coming year as part of a $3.4 billion initiative, Carter said. On Monday, he said NATO is considering establishing a continuous rotation of up to 4,000 troops in the Baltic states and possibly Poland.

That force, which could include some U.S. troops, is among options expected to be considered at a NATO defense meeting in June. U.S. officials said they were encouraging other NATO members to commit troops to the force as well.

But U.S. attempts to control or direct Russia haven’t fared well. The U.S has been unable to end Russia’s occupation of parts of Ukraine and support for separatist rebels. And Washington is desperately seeking Moscow’s help to enforce a cease-fire in Syria between the Russian-backed government and Western-supported rebels, and eventually usher President Bashar Assad out of power.

ANOTHER VIEW

Solitary must be handled carefully Illinois Corrections Department officials are well-advised to review complaints about excessive solitary confinement and institute safeguards to prevent abuses.

Testimony before an Illinois legislative committee last week raised concerns about the extent to which prison inmates are subjected to solitary confinement for rules infractions.

It’s impossible to say whether the critics or defenders of the confinement policy are correct.

But it seems obvious such a penalty not only is harsh but can be excessively imposed, and thorough institutional oversight is required to prevent abuses.

A federal lawsuit challenging the state’s solitary confinement policy was filed last year in federal court. This year, prison inmate advocates are taking their grievances to the General Assembly in the hopes of gaining a legislative solution.

State Rep. LaShawn Ford, a Chicago Democrat, has proposed legislation that would limit solitary confinement to no more than five consecutive days or five total days during a 150-day period.

Corrections Department officials naturally object to the proposal, suggesting the measure would create severe disciplinary problems that would pose a threat to prison employees.

Holding an inmate in solitary confinement, particularly for extended periods, is a nasty business, sometimes necessary perhaps but potentially ripe for abuse.

Now prisoner advocates are taking aim at solitary confinement as it is practiced throughout the rest of the state’s prison system.

Federal and state legislators are in the midst of taking a second look at incarceration policies, the concern being they are harsh to the point of being counterproductive. The issue of solitary confinement naturally is part of that review.

It would be a mistake to lean too hard in the direction of the kind of policy Rep. Ford has proposed or in support of what some assert is an abusive status quo. But a policy that can be so easily abused must be exercised with the greatest of care that includes safeguards aimed at preventing unnecessary isolation.

Prisons are not pleasant places, largely owing to the kind of people confined there. But there’s nothing to be gained – and, indeed, something to be lost – by subjecting inmates to worse treatment than what the law, prison rules and common sense require.

If they earn their time – even extended time – in isolation, so be it. If not, holding inmates in isolation is unacceptable.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

More women will strengthen military An attempt to undermine the Pentagon’s decision to allow women to serve in combat roles backfired spectacularly last week – and the U.S. will be safer for it.

During a congressional debate on the defense policy bill, Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-California, proposed requiring all 18-year-old women to sign up for the draft, just like their male counterparts.

He didn’t actually support the idea – in fact, he voted against his own amendment – but said he wanted to start a “discussion” about Defense Secretary Ashton Carter’s December announcement that women would be able to apply for all combat positions.

It was “wrong and irresponsible,” Hunter has said, for Carter to have made that move without congressional input.

To everyone’s surprise, Hunter’s proposal to instate the draft for women passed the House Armed Services Committee by a narrow margin. After a floor vote

on the entire bill, it will be taken up by the Senate, and it deserves support there, too.

Men who fail to register face felony charges and are ineligible for federal jobs and college loans.

Now that women are getting more equal opportunities for their military careers, they should bear the same responsibilities as men.

Other countries in which women also serve in combat roles, such as Israel and Norway, also conscript women.

Critics are fond of noting that few women have applied for combat roles in the five months since Carter announced the change.

The reasons are clear enough: The current group of women joined a military in which combat roles were not an option, and thus may not fit in with their career plans.

Also, given the daunting prospect of integrating the most macho parts of the military, many enlisted women may be waiting for a larger female combat officer corps

that can “have their backs.”

So the best way to judge this policy is not necessarily by the numbers. Nor is it only about fairness and responsibility. The strongest case for opening combat roles to women, and requiring them to register for the draft, is that it will result in a stronger military. This surely figured into Carter’s reasoning, and is why he was right to do what he did.

Women have served in the front lines in Iraq and Afghanistan for years, albeit in support roles. There are women capable of every physical act required of the most elite men; two graduated from the Army’s legendary Ranger School last year, and one is now the Army’s first female infantry officer. As it faces Islamic extremism, a rising China and an unpredictable Russia, the U.S. military needs to draw on the talent pool of all Americans – not just half of them.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

IT’S YOUR WRITE

Carbon fee is the answer

To the Editor: A group of House members is urging Speaker Paul Ryan to bring to a floor vote two resolutions that oppose taxes targeting the oil and gas industry. One of the resolutions, introduced by Charles Boustany, R-Louisiana, would express the sense of Congress that a new tax should not be placed on oil. The other resolution, introduced by Steve Scalise, R-Louisiana, would express the sense of Congress that a carbon tax would be detrimental to the U.S. economy.

There is a free-market proposal economists and climate scientists alike say is the best first step to reducing the likelihood of catastrophic climate change from global warming while at the same time strengthening the economy. Place a steadily rising carbon fee on fossil fuels and give all of the revenue from the carbon fee back to households. Within 20 years, this will reduce greenhouse gas emissions 50 percent below 1990 levels

VIEWS Ramesh Ponnuru oppose Trump look down on them, and it’s one reason they are backing him. When anti-Trumpists openly announce they have no respect for Trump voters and wish to shun them, they just confirm these Trump supporters’ view and harden their resolve.

Blanket hostility to Trump supporters isn’t just counterproductive; it’s unjustified. I’ll admit it is sometimes tempting. Almost all of my interactions with Trump supporters have been online and unhappy. A lot of them have consisted of racist jibes at me (I’m supposed to go back where I came from, which incidentally is a pleasant land called Kansas City), followed by my quick use of the delete key for email and the mute button for Twitter.

Other commentators I know who oppose Trump tell me they, too, have been experiencing much more racism, anti-Semitism and misogyny than ever before.

Even the non-racist feedback I’ve gotten from Trump fans has tended to be unreasoning, hypersensitive – especially galling coming from people who assail “political correctness” so much

and at the same time create nearly 3 million new jobs and save lives.

Boustany and Scalise understandably are trying to protect their own districts’ oil interests. The reality, though, is the entire planet’s population is at risk of the effects of human-caused climate change. The good news is we don’t have to harm the economy to reduce carbon emissions. Solutions exist to move away from energy created by burning oil, coal and gas, and move forward with renewable energies without detriment to the economy.

Democrats responsible for gun violence

To the Editor: Chicago claims it’s the guns’ fault so many people are getting killed, where anyone could look at the facts and understand it is the nature of the culture.

– or just plain stupid. If there’s any of it I find amusing, it’s when people use anonymous accounts to call Trump’s critics a bunch of wimps.

Luckily, Twitter isn’t at all representative of the American public, and neither are website comment sections.

They could be an especially bad proxy for the roughly 10 million people who have voted for Trump. Kirchick has done valuable reporting on white-nationalist support for Trump. But most of Trump’s voters aren’t hiding under the same rocks as the “alt right”; most of them haven’t heard of it.

People who disdain Trump voters en masse are, it seems to me, confusing two questions: Should an intelligent and decent person back Trump?

And can an intelligent and decent person back Trump? I’m a firm no on the first question. But the answer to the second question is yes.

Someone – a lot of someones – might think mass immigration is lowering wages, that Trump is the only candidate who would try to do something about it, and that he should therefore be president. Or someone might think our government has been dysfunctional for a long time, that we need someone who is not beholden to the orthodoxies of either party to fix it, and that Trump fits the bill. Or someone might think it’s important for Republicans to win the White House, and Trump has shown such

surprising political strength he is the best candidate for that purpose.

All of these arguments are, I believe, seriously defective. They don’t “justify” voting for Trump, as Kirchick puts it. But these are not obviously delusional or hateful reasons for supporting him. They are not different in kind, morally or intellectually, from the reasons tens of millions of people voted for Barack Obama or Mitt Romney in 2012.

To support Trump for these reasons requires looking away from a lot: his ignorance of many basic facts about American government, his encouragement of violence toward protesters, his advocacy of war crimes, and more: It’s a distressingly long list.

But we should not assume that most of his voters are fully aware of all of these things, let alone that they are choosing him because of them.

Living in a democracy often means thinking millions of our fellow citizens are making a big mistake and saying so. That doesn’t have to mean considering them our moral inferiors.

To the extent my fellow anti-Trump conservatives are adopting that mindset, they are making a depressing political season even more so.

Political campaigns are supposed to kick off debates about how we should feel about the candidates. Donald Trump’s campaign has started a debate about how we should feel about the candidate’s supporters, too.

Wall Street Journal columnist Bret Stephens was early in taking the fight against Trump to his fans. “If by now you don’t find Donald Trump appalling, you’re appalling,” he wrote in August. More recently, Gabriel Schoenfeld has written in the New York Daily News that “all Trump voters can and should be held to account” for flocking to a candidate who combines low character with hostility to constitutional freedoms. Conservatives, he added, should not address these voters “with sympathy.” James Kirchick, in the Tablet, says we should “not respect anyone” who supports Trump, nor “explain away” this “bad behavior.”

Should people even stay friends with Trump supporters? After Peter Wehner, another fierce conservative opponent of Trump, argued in the New York Times that friendship should come before political disagreements, Isaac Chotiner criticized Wehner in Slate for this softness: Trump caters to bigotry, which is worth ending a friendship over.

A lot of Trump supporters, I’d venture, do not yearn to dwell in the good graces of Chotiner, Schoenfeld et al. They already think people who

Corporate earnings fall, but signs of life visible

By MARLEY JAY

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Are we there yet? It’s another weak quarter on Wall Street, but there are some signs corporate America will come out of its recent funk.

Earnings at big U.S. companies are on track to tumble 6.4 percent in the first quarter, the worst since the financial crisis. That would also be the third straight decline in profits while revenue is on pace to fall for the fifth quarter in a row.

Much of the blame lies in plunging oil prices and a sagging global economy. The beleaguered U.S. energy sector, which includes giants such as Exxon Mobil and Chevron, is expected to report an overall loss, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence, something that hasn’t happened since the firm began collecting data in 1999.

On the economic front, the news remains dour. The International Monetary Fund and World Bank have downgraded their outlook for global growth this year. Growth in the Chinese economy, the world’s second-largest and a major driver of growth in other nations, has been slowing steadily since 2010.

A stronger dollar has also been hurting big U.S. companies that do a lot of sales in overseas markets. When revenue from goods those companies sell overseas, be it mining equipment, medicines or appliances, they are worth less in dollars once the profits are converted back to U.S. currency.

Trader David O’Day works Thursday on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. U.S. companies are on track for their third straight decline in quarterly earnings – the worst streak since the financial crisis – as a result of low oil prices and weak economic growth.

So what is there to feel good about?

Experts think the problems plaguing profits at U.S. companies are starting to fade. With more than two-thirds of the companies in the S&P 500 index having turned in their results, some are seeing signs of hope.

“There are little shades of hope,” said Lindsey Bell, an analyst for S&P Global Market Intelligence. “It’s just very, very early stages.”

Giant consumer companies such as Amazon and drug companies such as Pfizer have turned in strong results this quarter. Overall, about 70 per-

cent of companies have reported better-than-expected earnings for the first quarter.

And since investors weren’t expecting good results in the first quarter to begin with, they’re more focused on what companies are saying about the months ahead.

And in many cases, they like what they are hearing. Oil prices have bounced back a little bit over the last three months, and after years of strength, the dollar has slipped.

Bell of S&P Global Market Intelligence adds that some companies

think the weaker dollar will bolster their profits in the next few quarters.

Pfizer, she noted, raised its outlook in part due to the weakening dollar.

Chemicals maker DuPont and the giant health care company Johnson & Johnson also issued higher forecasts.

Despite weakness in China and Europe, the U.S. economy kept growing and employers are still hiring large numbers of workers. Zirin noted that makers of machinery and consumer companies are doing especially well, a good sign for the overall health of the U.S. economy.

Analysts think earnings will fall again in the second quarter and then start growing after that. That’s partly because the bar has gone so much lower.

But it’s also because energy prices seem to be recovering and there are hopes that the U.S. economy will continue to grow even if the rest of the world isn’t as strong. Last week the government estimated that the U.S. economy expanded at a rate of 0.5 percent in the first three months of the year.

As for oil, it cost around $100 a barrel in mid-2014 and plunged for more than a year after that, reaching $26 a barrel in February. It’s since recovered to more than $40 a barrel, giving a little relief to energy companies.

Add it all up and it could mean that 2016 might not be a total wash for corporate profits. S&P Global Market Intelligence says analysts think overall profit growth will eke out a gain of 0.1 percent for the full year.

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT WEDNESDAY, MAY 4, 2016

LOS ANGELES – Goldenvoice announced Tuesday that the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, Neil Young, Roger Waters and The Who will perform during a three-day concert in the Southern California desert where the annual Coachella music festival is held. This is the first time these stalwart rockers have shared a billing.

Dubbed the Desert Trip , the classic-rock concert is set for Oct. 7 to 9 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio. Like the Coachella festival, the Desert Trip will offer on-site camping and food stands. Two acts will perform full sets after sunset, with the Stones and Dylan on Friday; McCartney and Young on Saturday; and Pink Floyd’s Waters and The Who on Sunday.

Concerts in Tennessee to live-stream in Chicago

This image released by The Public Theater shows Lin-Manuel Miranda (foreground) with the cast during a performance of “Hamilton,” in New York.

Broadway musical ‘Hamilton’ does what it always does – stuns NEW YORK – The Tony Awards are being nicknamed this year the “Hamil-Tonys” in recognition that “Hamilton” is the show to beat. That was proved again Tuesday.

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s hip-hop-flavored biography about the first U.S. treasury secretary earned 16 Tony Award nominations, breaking the 15-nominations record held jointly by “The Producers” and “Billy Elliot the Musical.” “Hamilton” earned nods in all 13 categories it was eligible.

“I feel really grateful that they kind of spread the wealth,” Miranda told The Associated Press. “Theater requires collaboration, and I’m lucky to be working with some of the best people in their respective fields alive right now.”

The awards will be handed out June 12, with James Corden playing host from the Beacon Theatre. “Hamilton” will be hoping to break another record: The musical with the most Tonys is “The Producers” with 12. At that ceremony, “Hamilton” will compete for Broadway’s biggest crown – best new musical – with “Bright Star,” “School of Rock,” “Shuffle Along” and “Waitress.”

The other top nominees Tuesday were “Shuffle Along,” a show that explores a groundbreaking 95-year-old musical starring, written and directed by African-Americans, which got 10 nominations, and the revival of “She Loves Me,” which earned eight.

“Hamilton” earned seven acting nominations – Miranda, Leslie Odom Jr., Phillipa Soo, Daveed Diggs, Jonathan Groff, Christopher Jackson and Renee Elise Goldsberry. It also earned nominations for best musical, scenic design, costumes, lighting design, direction, choreography, orchestrations, best book and best original score.

Three concerts will be live-streamed from Tennessee into high-traffic areas in Chicago later this month in what promoters are calling “the first long-distance concert of its kind.”

Performers in three Tennessee cities and the audience in Chicago will be able to see each other and interact thanks to a 360-degree, panoramic camera angle, according to the Tennessee Department of Tourism Development.

Citizen Cope will perform live May 23 from the Stax Museum of American Soul Music in Memphis. Jason Isbell will perform live May 24 from Nashville’s Country Music Hall of Fame. Ashley Monroe will perform May 25 at the Tennessee Theatre in her hometown, Knoxville.

The concerts are part of a tourism campaign, “The Soundtrack of America: Made in Tennessee.” Chicago is one of Tennessee’s top tourism markets.

‘Blues Brothers’ cartoon show tuning up for TV gig

NEW YORK – “The Blues Brothers” could be coming to TV as a prime-time animated comedy series.

Bento Box Entertainment on Tuesday announced the project, co-created by executive producers Dan Aykroyd, former “Saturday Night Live” writer Anne Beatts and Judy Belushi, widow of Blues Brothers co-founder John Belushi.

The series will be based on the musical act formed in 1978 by then-”SNL” cast

members Aykroyd and Belushi, which led to a hit record album, live appearances and the classic 1980 film, “The Blues Brothers,” as well as the House of Blues chain.

The production company said its new series will chronicle the music, mayhem and comedy adventures of Jake and Elwood Blues, along with characters within their Chicago blues band.

The company said it plans to shop the project to television outlets in May.

‘Chappaquiddick’ film to examine Kennedy’s crash

BOSTON – During a week in which the eyes of the nation were focused on NASA’s first moon landing, a tragic drama played out on a tiny Massachusetts island that would have political ramifications for decades to follow.

The late Sen. Edward Kennedy’s actions, explanations and motives in the hours and days after a car he was driving slipped off Chappaquiddick’s Dike Bridge on July 18, 1969, killing Mary Jo Kopechne, have been explored in numerous articles, books and documentaries. Now, the groundwork is being laid for an independent feature film that will perhaps rekindle questions lingering for nearly a half-century.

Australian-born “Zero Dark Thirty” star Jason Clarke will portray Kennedy in “Chappaquiddick” – the film’s working title – and John Curran, whose credits include “The Painted Veil,” will direct, said the movie’s co-producer and Apex Entertainment president and chief executive Mark Ciardi.

Production is slated to begin around Labor Day, with a tentative release in late 2017.

Beauty companies tout pills over creams

By KELLI KENNEDY

The Associated Press

MIAMI – The makeup industry is trying to convince women looking good on the outside starts from within – but it’s unclear whether the products they’re trying to hawk are safe and effective.

Big-name beauty companies and retailers including Sephora and Urban Outfitters are rolling out pills and drinkable liquids loaded with exotic herbs, vitamins, seeds, berries and substances such as collagen. The products promise to do things such as firm up skin and improve its natural glow.

The trend is picking up steam.

Although a small portion of the $16 billion beauty products market, sales of beauty supplements targeting the face have grown from less than $1 million in 2013 to more than $4 million in 2015, according to market research firm the NPD Group.

But unlike the instant glam provided by a swipe of blush or lipstick, pills and other so-called “nutraceuticals” add a layer of questions about safety and effectiveness as some consumers may see ingesting something in the name of looking lovely a lot differently than simply rubbing something into the skin. And similar efforts have tanked in the past: Industry titans such as Oil of Olay peddled vitamins promising glowing skin and hair more than a decade ago to no avail.

Today, companies are being buoyed by celebrities who swear by these ingestible beauty products. In January, actress Gwyneth Paltrow shared the recipe of a daily shake on her online magazine’s website goop – an almond milk-based concoction that includes a product from Moon Juice’s line, with ingredients that are said to create a glowing complexion and healthy hair.

Actress Jennifer Aniston also has said she puts collagen peptides in her morning shake.

And there’s a movement by everyday people to incorporate natural products into their lives for everything from the foods they eat to dish soap and mascara they use.

An entire generation of consumers has evolved from merely reading food labels to scrutinizing chemicals in everything.

“The theme across all consumer categories is more natural ingredients for all the products they’re purchasing,” said Sarah Jindal, a senior beauty analyst for Mintel. “That’s going to continue to become more and more important to the consumer.”

Do they work?

Proponents say many of the products are safer than skin creams and makeups full of harmful sulfates and parabens. But are they effective?

“I think there’s a perception of safer options, but I think it’s exactly that. I think it’s the peace of mind, too,” said Dan Fabricant, CEO of the Natural Products Association. “It’s ‘Hey, these are things that I’m used to in my diet. I’m going to prefer to do that than put on something that’s from a chemical factory.’”

Doctors say the skin is a detox organ and everything from poor diets to medical ailments can manifest there.

“If we are healthy inside, will our skin look better? Yes,” said Dr. Matthew Avram, who specializes in cosmetic dermatology at Massachusetts General Hospital.

But he counters that “it doesn’t necessarily mean that because you take a certain supplement of one kind or another that your skin is necessarily going to look better.”

While it’s reasonable to think that taking probiotics to improve gut function or eating more collagen would improve the skin, he said there haven’t been enough large scale studies to AP photo prove it: “That doesn’t mean it doesn’t A display of products, including Body Inner Beauty Powder, sold at CAP Beauty, a well- work, but it means that scientifically, ness store with an all-things-natural approach, in New York’s West Village. Body Inner it hasn’t been shown to work.”

Beauty Powder comes in a choice of either chocolate or vanilla flavor, and is meant to be consumed.

Are they safe?

The larger question for some consumers is whether the products work.

So-called ingestibles have been popular in Asia, where collagen yogurts and marshmallows are common, but they’re relatively new in the U.S. Here, these products largely fall under the massive $30 billion to $40 billion dietary supplement industry regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. The agency also oversees supplements sold in grocery stores and pharmacies. But many don’t come to their attention as the agency’s team of less than two dozen people is charged with overseeing roughly 85,000 products.

The FDA’s power only kicks in after the products are on the market, meaning the manufacturer does not have to demonstrate safety or effectiveness beforehand. The Federal Trade Commission, which regulates marketing claims, is not allowed to discuss ongoing investigations, but officials said they weren’t aware of any sanctions against these types of products.

“Many consumers assume the products are safe and are not harmful because they can be purchased at reputable retailers or they think the fact that it is available for sale means that FDA said it was OK. Unfortunately, this is not always the case,” FDA spokeswoman Lyndsay Meyer said.

The law actually might make it easier for marketers to peddle these products to consumers because dietary supplements by law can make some beauty promises that makeups and creams cannot. For example, a dietary supplement legally can claim its product can grow longer hair or improve production of collagen, which is said to improve skin’s elasticity.

It also means the burden is on companies to tell the truth about efficacy claims and the quality of the ingredients.

“The fact is that what a company claims is in its products and what is actually in them is not always the same,” FDA’s Meyer said. “And often, we’re not aware of these discrepancies until we’re able to inspect a company to make sure.”

Drawing interest

Despite questionable science, beauty companies are rolling out their versions of ingestibles.

Urban Outfitters started selling several beauty powders from the Moon Juice line, which includes popular products such as Beauty Dust, a $65 powder that includes goji and pearl and is said to create a glowing complexion and healthy hair. Sephora, with roughly 300 locations, also is capitalizing on the trend, saying customers are being more savvy in understanding improved wellness also can benefit their appearance.

Companies say one of the biggest hurdles for them is helping consumers get over the expectation of getting the same immediate results may come from a moisturizer. This makes it harder for companies to capture a loyal following because average consumers are less likely to stick with it.

“It’s a slower return. ... Most consumers tend to really want a quick fix and immediate results and these things don’t happen immediately,” said Karen Grant, a beauty industry analyst with NPD Group.

month in the journal Obesity. It involved 14 contestants from Season 8 who were evaluated six years after the competition ended in 2009.

Kai Hibbard, a Season 3 contestant who has criticized the show for what she calls drastic weight-loss methods, said the results came as no surprise.

“I really was dancing around my living room, screaming ‘vindication’ ” when a friend texted her about the study, Hibbard said Tuesday from her home in Spokane, Washington.

Hibbard lost 118 pounds on the show nearly 10 years ago and has gained some but not all of it back.

She was not part of the study and declined to reveal her weight.

“Nothing is impossible, but it shows that it’s very, very difficult.

One year of aggressive therapy is really not enough,” Klein said. “You really have to go into a lifelong plan.”

Producers of the show released a written statement responding to the study, saying they “routinely re-evaluate to ensure all contestants receive the best care possible.”

CHICAGO – A new study has found many competitors on NBC’s “The Biggest Loser” leave the show with a slower metabolism, making it more difficult to keep off the pounds.

The National Institutes of Health study finds participants come out of the weight-loss reality competition burning about 500 fewer calories a day than expected. What’s more, the contestants who drop the most weight see the greatest slowing of their metabolisms.

Researchers say many contestants experience substantial weight gain in the years after the show.

The results show “in the most extreme cases how strongly the body

fights back,” said lead author Kevin Hall, a researcher with the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.

Hall said 500 calories is the size of a big lunch, and the results mean participants have to reduce their daily calorie intake by that much to avoid gaining weight. He said the study doesn’t mean dieting is a lost cause but that show participants must change their lifestyles to fight weight gain.

The news isn’t all bad for “Biggest Loser” competitors, however. The study notes participants have been quite successful at long-term weight loss when compared with people in other intervention programs aimed at shedding weight.

The study was published this

Sun exposure can damage skin Dear Dr. K: You’ve said many times the sun can harm our skin and increase the risk for skin cancer. How does it do that?

Dear Reader: As you age, the single biggest cause of damage to skin is sun exposure. This damage is called “photoaging.”

Over the years, sun exposure causes fine and coarse wrinkles; baggy skin with a yellow, leathery appearance; and dry, scaly skin. It also reduces collagen, a natural chemical that gives strength to tissues and supports a network of blood vessels in the skin. As a result, the skin bruises more easily.

Finally and most significantly, sun exposure increases the risk for skin cancer.

That includes melanoma – the very dangerous kind of skin cancer that can spread – and the less serious kinds of skin cancer that rarely spread.

Skin damage from sun exposure is caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Three different wavelengths of UV light come from the sun. Not all the sun’s rays have the same effects, though all can cause damage to the skin. Some wavelengths of UV radiation penetrate the skin more deeply than others. (I’ve put an illustration of this on my website, www.askdoctork.com.)

The three main wavelengths of the sun’s UV radiation: • UVC, the shortest of the three, has the highest energy level and is the most damaging. Fortunately, most UVC rays don’t reach the Earth’s surface.

• UVB is the next shortest. UVB rays are lower in energy than UVC rays, so they’re less damaging to skin. UVB rays make up about 5 percent of the ultraviolet radiation that reaches the Earth’s surface.

• UVA is the longest wavelength and penetrates most deeply. UVA rays play a role in photoaging.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff The people most vulnerable to getting melanoma are those who are fair-skinned (particularly pale skin, lots of freckles and red hair) and who have major sun exposure early in life. Most dangerous are repeated bad sunburns (five or more).

As a fair-skinned kid who spent a lot of time as a child on the beaches of Southern California, I had many sunburns. It was a time before we recognized the dangers of too much sun exposure. You might say we worshipped the sun. It was false idolatry: A dermatologist now checks me out every six months.

All types of cancer start in one cell. The genes in that cell cause the cell to start dividing uncontrollably: One cell becomes two, two become four, four become eight, and so on. Pretty soon, there’s a cancer. This uncontrolled growth is driven by genes – genes that aren’t built properly, or that are turned on and off at the wrong time.

This applies to all types of skin cancer, including melanoma. In some cases of melanoma (roughly 10 percent) a person inherits a gene that makes them vulnerable.

More often, DNA in skin cells is damaged

by UVB and UVA radiation.

I wish I had known when I was a kid what we know now about the damage sun exposure can do. Fortunately, the knowledge research has given us will protect our children and grandchildren.

may not have discussed what happened because of fear or embarrassment, or because his abuser made him feel it was his fault.

When someone is abused for years, that person is the victim of a predator.

Talk to him again about this. I agree he should consult a mental health professional.

Not only would it help him, but because therapists are mandated reporters, it also would ensure this cousin doesn’t sexually abuse other children.

Dear Abby: I had an affair years ago, and I recently confessed to my spouse our child isn’t his. Things are really bad now between the two of us, and I don’t think we are going to make it. My question is, do I tell my child the truth? – Imperfect Mom In California Dear Imperfect: At some point, your child will need to know his or her entire medical history. He or she also may wish to meet the biological father. If your child is young, the news can wait. But if he or she is nearing adulthood, that information could be important in case there are diseases that run in the father’s family – diabetes, heart disease, cancer and Alzheimer’s among them.

Dear Abby: We often go out to dinner with another couple and have done so for several years. It has become increasingly embarrassing because of the demands they place on the servers.

They always want more butter (and often demand it before the rolls or bread are served), they want more sauce, more gravy, more cheese, more dressing, then more bread, butter, syrup – basically more of everything.

Then they feel compelled to let the server know what was wrong with the meal after we are finished.

How can my wife and I bow out of dinner dates with them without canceling all other social activities we do together? – Desperate

My boyfriend says he has come to terms with the abuse and his abuser, but I’m not sure it’s true. He became really upset when he spoke about it the one time, and we haven’t discussed it since.

I’m afraid to pry, but I think he might need help. His abuser still is present in his life. I’m not sure what’s stopping him from seeking help. What do you think I should do? – Only

Frightening scene

Game suspended after Huntley pitcher injured

joestevenson@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Huntley pitcher Cole Raines proved to be the consummate team player, even after the most horrifying play of his baseball career, Raines, a right-handed junior, was struck with a line drive off the bat of Crystal Lake South’s Nick Van Witzenburg in the top of the seventh inning Tuesday and immediately dropped to the ground.

Raines yelled in pain as South’s runners advanced with the play still alive.

Eventually, when Red Raiders coach Andy Jakubowski got to the mound, Raines offered an encouraging sign.

“He told coach Jakubowski he was sorry he had given up the run,” said Ken Raines, Cole’s father. “That’s the first thing he said. He was just scared more than anything, as was I and his mom (Jennifer).”

Huntley’s trainer tended to Raines and an ambulance was called. Raines was taken to Centegra Hospital-Woodstock for treatment and observation.

Around 10 p.m., Ken Raines tweeted: “Good news, Cole has a fractured temporal bone and some stitches in his ear.

CT scan on brain is good and no concussion.” Raines also texted to the Northwest Herald that his son’s prognosis was good, although he might have some hearing loss. Cole was scheduled to see a hearing specialist Wednesday.

The game was suspended with South leading, 4-2, runners at first and third and one out. It will be resumed at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, then the teams’ regularly schedule game will be played.

“I’ve never been a part of something that close,” Jakubowski said. “You see it in a pro game and a college game, but when it happens to one of your guys, I know I’m all shook up. (South) coach (Brian) Bogda did a very nice, classy job of talking about pushing it to tomorrow.”

Raines had just entered the game with Huntley trailing, 3-2, and a runner at second base. The Gators’ Michael Humphrey singled to score Tyler Carlson from second. Van Witzenburg drilled a 2-1 pitch too hard for Raines to catch or dodge.

“I saw the ball bounce off his face,” Van Witzenburg said. “It almost hit me coming down the line. I wanted to get to first and make sure he was OK. I didn’t think about anything else, just make sure he was OK. It was horrible to see the blood coming out of his face.”

“I’ve seen it happen before. It’s shocking; it’s a part of baseball,” Red Raiders catcher Joe Rizzo said. “I ran out there and he was down. You could tell he’s in pain. I was just glad he knew where he was.”

Players from both teams knelt on the field quietly while Raines received help from paramedics. “[Suspending] is the right decision,” Bogda said. “From a parent’s and a coach’s perspective, it’s the right thing to do where everyone can come back tomorrow and give their best mental effort.”

Huntley catcher Joe Rizzo was one of the first people to the mound after pitcher Cole Raines was struck in the head with a line drive in the seventh inning. The game was suspended after Raines was taken by ambulance to Centegra Hospital-Woodstock and will be finished Wednesday.

“I don’t think you can come back after that,” Rizzo said. “Just take a day to think … take a day off.”

South’s Nick Van Witzenburg, who hit the ball, felt badly for Raines.

“Everyone was shaken up after that,” he said.

“Come back tomorrow.”

Gators starting pitcher Luke Dunham threw a strong five innings and might have saved a run with his alert play in the third inning. Huntley’s Eric Maurer stole second base and slid into the throw. As the ball rolled toward left field, Maurer took off for third. Shortstop Kory Olsen’s throw eluded third baseman Michael Humphrey, but Dunham caught it before it could roll to the fence. “I was just trying to do my job,” Dunham said. “Coach (Brian) Bogda always preaches, ‘Back up!

The first offer always seems to be the most difficult to get.

Crystal Lake Central offensive lineman Wyatt Blake saw that last season when teammate Romeo McKnight’s stock soared as a recruit and ultimately signed with Iowa.

McKnight was a well-kept secret until March 2015. Blake is not. He’s been rated on recruiting lists nationally since he was named a freshman All-American by MaxPreps.

College coaches from across the country have been visiting the Tigers during the spring evaluation period and, Tuesday, the 6-foot-4, 300-pound sophomore offensive tackle received his first scholarship offer, from Central Michigan and area recruiter Sherrone Moore, the school’s tight ends coach.

“I feel like a weight is lifted off my shoulders,” Blake said. “Now, I know for sure that my school’s paid for.”

For the underclassmen, Blake and his coaches have found that schools are slow-

er to offer offensive linemen than skill-position players.

“It’s sometimes harder to see offensive linemen on film,” Crystal Lake Central coach Jon McLaughlin said. “... If you’re an athlete, they can see you a lot more in space. They can see you better that way.

“They say there’s a lot more coming, just to be patient and work through the process.”

Purdue, Wisconsin and Ohio State visited Crystal Lake Central this week.

Blake said he has been in contact with 20 to 30 other schools, including Michigan State, Michigan, Minnesota, Indiana and Duke.

They all project Blake, who played tackle and guard on the Tigers’ offensive line, differently. Ohio State sees him as a center. Others see him as either a guard or tackle.

“I’ve told him the only thing you can control is to keep lifting and working hard,” McLaughlin said. “Eventually, it will happen. You can’t control who or Shaw Media file photo when but you can control how hard you Crystal Lake Central sophomore offensive tackle Wyatt Blake received his first football work. scholarship offer Tuesday, from Central Michigan.

“Hopefully, it’s the first of many.”

4 SOFTBALL: HUNTLEY 3, DUNDEE-CROWN 0

Small ball carries Huntley

By RYAN ALTMAN

sports@nwherald.com HUNTLEY – The Huntley softball team’s fourth inning against DundeeCrown was a microcosm of how its offensive approach has panned out this season.

“Our game plan is to put the ball in play, any way, any how,” Red Raiders coach Mark Petryniec said.

After base hits by Rylie Porretto and Hayley O’Mara to begin the fourth, Sofia Tenuta bounced into a fielder’s choice, which brought Porretto in from second base. O’Mara then stole second and later scored on Autumn Kasal’s infield single off the glove of Chargers pitcher Sydney Ruggles. The full sequence of plays gave the Red Raiders a two-run advantage.

“With the wind blowing the way it was today, we knew it was going to have to be something small. Put the ball in play and hope for something good,” Petryniec said.

Behind their small-ball approach at the plate and seven shutout innings from Tiffany Giese, the Red Raiders blanked the Chargers, 3-0, in Fox Val-

To make up for several games lost because of the weather, Red Raiders coach Mark Petryniec said he has added two tough nonconference games against Niles North (13-5) and Lockport (13-6) to the schedule. ley Conference Valley Division play at Huntley High School.

Winners of 15 of their past 17 games, the Red Raiders also extended their division unbeaten streak to five.

Early on, the Red Raiders (15-5, 5-0 FVC Valley) struggled to find a rhythm against Ruggles, who retired six of her

first seven batters faced. She held the home team hitless through three innings with the only base runner coming on a leadoff walk to Jessica Shields (two stolen bases) in the first.

“I think before, we were all just hitting it right at them, and then we started finding gaps, getting lucky, while finding ways to get on base,” said O’Mara, who finished 2 for 3 with a pair of singles and two runs.

The Red Raiders’ third and final run came after an errant throw on Kasal’s ground ball that went past Chargers third baseman Deanna Origer.

Three runs were all they needed offensively with Giese in the circle. She struck out seven, walked one and allowed one hit on 84 pitches. The Chargers (12-12, 2-4) reached base only four times, the best opportunity coming from Claire Weeks’ one-out double in the first inning. “[The wind] was behind me, so I had a lot of speed,” Giese said. “My pitches were working today. I just hit my spots, and my defense was really strong behind me.”

Ruggles gave up three runs on six hits in six innings, striking out two.

Trojans rally from 5 down in 6th

By TIM SIECK

CARY – Pitching figured to be the storyline in Tuesday’s baseball game between Cary-Grove and McHenry.

The Warriors were throwing ace Bobby Miller, while C-G was countering with Danny Schmidt, who had a two-hit shutout against Dundee-Crown his previous outing.

In the end, it was the success of C-G reliever Max Neilson that helped decide the outcome.

“My curveball was really working for me today, and that was the pitch I relied on the most,” Neilson said. “I really wanted to keep the game close after McHenry had that big inning. I was able to pitch to contact and my defense made so many great plays.”

C-G overcame a five-run deficit in the sixth inning, and went on to a 7-6 victory in eight innings in a Fox Valley Conference Valley Division game.

After struggling the first three innings against Schmidt, the McHenry offense came to life in the fourth inning.

anything going offensively. In the sixth inning, Tyler Pennington was able to drive a Miller fastball over the center field fence and cut the Warriors’ lead to 6-3. This was the spark C-G needed.

“I just knew if we could keep the game close we had a chance,” C-G coach Don Sutherland said. “Tyler’s (Pennington) home run really gave us a lift on a day that was tough to hit a home run. Our hitters really came through late when we needed it and got the job done.”

The Trojans were able to get the offense going in the seventh. With the score 6-4, the Trojans had runners on second and third with two outs. Quinn Celske delivered the game-tying two-run single ,which forced extra innings. In the eighth, Mark Smith scored with two outs on a wild pitch to give C-G the win.

Miller rebounded well from his tough outing Friday against Huntley, but the Warriors (15-7, 6-5) couldn’t extend the lead when they had their chances.

“We struggled to execute and left a lot of runners in scoring position today,” McHenry coach Brian Rockweiler said.

“We could have scored a lot more runs especially early on but didn’t, and that really hurt us.”

“I’ve seen it so many times, it’s scary,” he said. “They asked him some questions, and he could move his fingers and toes and all that stuff. I think he’s going to be OK. ... He may have a little bit of a headache.”

The Fox Valley Conference Valley Division game had been a back-andforth contest to that point. South (17-3 overall, 7-3 FVC Valley) took a 1-0 lead, then Huntley (15-8, 6-4) scored two unearned runs in the bottom of the third.

Gators first baseman Nick Wolski ripped a two-run home run in the fourth for a 3-2 lead.

“I knew [Huntley pitcher Nick Laxner] had a pretty good fastball, and I was looking for one low in the zone,” Wolski said. “It felt amazing. The best I’ve felt in a while. It was good, especially since I had the error in the inning before that allowed them to get the runs.”

South’s Luke Dunham threw five innings and allowed three hits and no earned runs.

“First-pitch strikes, coach Bogda always wants those 60 percent or higher,” said Dunham, who started off 14 of 21 batters with a strike. “I’ve been a little up and down, I kind of put it all together today.”

6 BASEBALL: PRAIRIE RIDGE 4, HAMPSHIRE 1

PR’s Annen breaks tie, earns save

By JOHN WILKINSON

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com HAMPSHIRE – The seventh inning Tuesday, as it has most of the year for Prairie Ridge, belonged to Luke Annen.

After six innings dominated by the two starting pitchers, the Prairie Ridge senior drove in two runs in the top of the seventh to break a 1-1 deadlock and then took the mound in the bottom half and recorded the save.

“We had it going all game, Jon (Tieman) was pitching great and coach (Glen Pecoraro) decided to put me in there and I just did what I’ve done all season,” Annen said.

The Wolves’ three-run seventh helped them to a 4-1 Fox Valley Conference Fox Division victory over the Whip-Purs.

Hampshire starter Michael Kruse got two quick outs in the seventh, but a single by Nick Schmidt and walk to Hunter Martin put two on for Annen.

He drove a ball to the right-center field gap that landed right between the Hampshire fielders for a two-run triple.

That chased Kruse from the game,

out by Noah Schrader ended the game.

For the first six innings, the starters, Tieman and Kruse, were the story.

Kruse had multiple pitches working, consistently hit the outside corner and afterward credited his coach with a good gameplan and his catcher with calling a good game.

“I tip my hat to their kid,” Pecoraro said. “I just told him walking through the line I didn’t think he deserved that fate, because he pitched outstanding.”

Prairie Ridge (20-5, 9-1 FVC Fox) took a 1-0 lead in the top of the third on an RBI double by Bryce Thelander that dropped in off the glove of a diving center fielder.

Kruse allowed just four hits through the first six innings for the Whip-Purs (11-11, 5-7) and finished with a line of 62/3 innings pitched, four runs on six hits and three walks while striking out 10.

All four runs scored on balls that fell just out of the reach of his fielders.

“That’s going to happen, that happens to everybody, that’s the game of baseball,” Kruse said. “We’ve got them tomorrow, so let’s just go get a ‘W’ tomorrow.”

Tieman said he didn’t have his

“strikeout stuff” and could really only locate one pitch, his fastball, so he pitched to contact and leaned on his defense.

“My command wasn’t as good as it usually is, and my breaking pitches weren’t doing exactly what they were supposed to,” Tieman said. “But our defense was making great plays out there, and I was just trying to let them put the ball in play.”

Still, he didn’t allow a run until the fifth inning. With two outs, he gave up back-to-back singles, hit a batter and walked another. A wild pitch brought in Kevin Michaelson to tie the score 1-1.

Tieman regrouped and pitched a one-two-three sixth to finish his day with one run allowed on three hits, a walk and two hit batters, while striking out four.

“Our bullpen has been amazing this year,” Tieman said. “So, as a starter, it feels a lot better because you know all you have to do is get four or five good innings in for the team and six, seven or five, six, seven, we’ve got it covered with Luke and some of the other guys out there, so it’s a great feeling.”

COLLEGE: FLORIDA STATE

No headdresses at Seminoles games, FSU student reps ask

By JOE REEDY

The Associated Press TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida State University’s student government has passed a resolution discouraging Seminoles fans from wearing Native American headdresses at games.

The Student Government Association approved the nonbinding, formal opinion by a 27-4 vote April 20 asking the university’s administration to consider adding the wearing of headdresses as a violation of the student code of conduct.

The SGA said it passed the resolution because many of the headdresses worn at athletic events are representative of other tribes, in particular Plains tribes like the Sioux, and not the Seminoles. Part of the resolution reads that the Senate “does not condone the wearing

University spokeswoman Browning Brooks said in an email that the resolution is a “very thoughtful and reasonable request.”

“We appreciate the motivation behind it, as well as the tone,” Brooks said. “The administration will give this careful

thought and consider some ideas to promote additional cultural sensitivity by our students and fans.”

Even if the administration decided to add the headdress issue to the code of conduct, enforcing it could be difficult because of concerns that it might violate students’ First Amendment right to free speech.

Florida State is one of four schools where the NCAA has approved the use of a Native American name and imagery because of the support of the Seminole Tribe of Florida in 2005. The others are Central Michigan University (Chippewas), University of Utah (Utes) and Mississippi College (Choctaws). Four Division I schools – Alcorn State, Bradley, Illinois and William & Mary – have Native American nicknames but do not use mascots or imagery.

Crystal Lake South graduate Fahn Cooper took the first step in his NFL journey Saturday when the San Francisco 49ers drafted him late in the fifth round. Now comes the real work: making the team and sticking with San Francisco long-term.

Offensive line was a clear need for the 49ers heading into this season, especially after they allowed their best lineman, Alex Boone, to walk in free agency.

San Francisco made the position group a priority by drafting three linemen for the first time since 1998.

In addition to Cooper, the 49ers traded back in the first round and selected guard Joshua Garnett out of Stanford.

They also took tackle John Theus ahead of Cooper in the fifth round.

San Francisco coach Chip Kelly identified Cooper as a player who fits his zone-running scheme. Cooper will have to battle it out with those rookies and the other offensive linemen on the 49ers’ roster. With the addition of the three rookies, the roster lists five guards, four tackles, one center and four players ambiguously listed as offensive linemen.

“You’re always trying to make every room as competitive as you can,” Kelly told reporters after the draft.

“So, any chance you get to upgrade a room, you take it because there’s nothing better than competition to bring the best out. And if you’ve got the right people in the rooms, they want jobs, they want to compete. So, bring it on. That’s the way we look at it.”

Only three players appear to have solidified their starting roles – left tackle Joe Staley, guard Zane Beadles and center Daniel Kilgore. With the significant investment in Garnett, it seems he could be the front-runner to lock up the second guard spot.

That leaves one tackle spot vacant.

Erik Pears and Trent Brown are likely to compete for the right tackle job, along with Cooper and the others.

However, as it stands now, Cooper will have his work cut out for him to land a starting role as a rookie. His value to the team will instead be predicated on a couple of factors.

While Cooper has long arms and good strength, a number of scouts, including Pro Football Weekly’s Greg Gabriel, envision Cooper as more of a guard than a tackle because of his

The 49ers might choose to line up Cooper inside at guard, where his size will be less of a factor.

However, Cooper’s best odds of suiting up on Sundays will be if he can prove his ability to play both positions, something Kelly values in his backups, because he plans to dress seven linemen.

“Those two backup offensive linemen, one of them has to be kind of an inside guy, one of them has to be kind of an outside guy,” Kelly said.

“They’ve got to be able to be versatile in terms of playing every position across our front five.”

Cooper has shown some versatility in the past, playing both tackle positions at Ole Miss. He also has the advantage of playing in an up-tempo, zone-running scheme that is similar is many ways to the offense Kelly plans to implement.

Cooper’s familiarity with these concepts should help ease his transition.

Still questions remain. Can Cooper exceed projections and become a fulltime tackle? Can he make the transition to guard? Or, most importantly, can he do both?

8 WHITE SOX NOTES

Sox designate Danks for assignment, Johnson to start

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

The White Sox abruptly cut the chord Tuesday with left-hander John Danks, a popular teammate and well-paid starting pitcher, but an ineffective one who, as he forlornly put it himself after the last of his four bad 2016 starts, was nothing more than a drag on the White Sox John Danks April express.

Danks, 31, will be designated for assignment and replaced, at least tentatively, by AAA right-hander Erik Johnson in the starting rotation Thursday with Carols Rodon moving up a day to pitch Wednesday – Danks’ scheduled day.

Danks (0-4, 7.25 ERA) lost four games for a team that lost eight through an 18-8 start that left everyone from the clubhouse to the front office to Las Vegas oddsmakers brimming with confidence in after the Sox compiled the highest number of wins in the American League against a tough part of their April schedule that in-

cluded 19 straight games and 16 of 26 on the road.

“We’ve got an opportunity to do something special here,’’ general manager Rick Hahn said.

“Every win is going to matter this season.’’

Hence the release of Danks and the $11.8 million he’ll get paid in the final months of his five-year, $65 million contract earned by Erik Johnson pitching to a 3.77 ERA over a four-year stretch from 2008-11. In three full seasons after his shoulder surgery, Danks’ fastball was a few miles an hour lower and his ERA a full point higher. He was working with an 87-mph fastball this year.

“He’s a competitor … but there was a sense of frustration and disappointment from John,’’ Hahn said. “At the same time he understood completely where we were coming from.’’

He lost every start, including a 10-2 loss to the Baltimore Orioles Thursday that halted the team’s six-game winning streak.

“There are 24 guys in here who are setting the world on fire,’’ Danks said

afterward.

“I got in the way of something special tonight.”

Manager Robin Ventura said the following day Danks would make his scheduled start Wednesday, and it appeared he would be fighting for his survival in the rotation. But the Sox, facing an opportunity “to build off the momentum we already have created for ourselves … and wanting to put ourselves in the best position to win games going forward,’’ as Hahn put it, would wait no more.

“He was a big part of the chemistry we had going on in here,’’ teammate Chris Sale said. “He was a character, a personality. But we have to keep moving. This game stops for no one. It’s the greatest job in the world but it can be cut throat as well.’’

Danks was the longest-tenured member of the team, arriving in December 2006 in a trade with the Texas Rangers. A first-round pick by the Rangers in 2003 (ninth overall), he was acquired along with pitchers Nick Masset and Jake Rasner for pitcher Brandon McCarthy and outfielder David Paisano.

Ventura appeared more dejected

than usual after Danks’ last performance, probably seeing the writing on the wall for him.

“It’s probably time for him,’’ Ventura said Tuesday. “Everybody knows how that goes, if you can roll off a few good [starts] and then the one bad one, everybody’s going to go back to the one bad one. It’s always tough.’’

Hahn said the fifth spot in the rotation behind Sale, Jose Quintana, Wednesday starter Carlos Rodon and Mat Latos is “fluid,’’ meaning Johnson’s start Thursday doesn’t mean he’s hear to stay. Jacob Turner and Miguel Gonzalez are also at AAA Charlotte, and free agent right-hander Tim Lincecum, recovering from hip surgery last year, is holding a showcase Friday which the Sox are expected to attend along with at least a dozen teams.

Johnson has a 3.74 ERA at Charlotte, where he earned International Pitcher of the Year honors in 2015 with a 2.37 ERA. Danks finishes with a 79-104 record and 4.38 ERA in 247 starts over 10 seasons. He ranks among Sox all-time leaders in strikeouts (sixth), quality starts (tied for 10th) and pickoffs (fourth).

White Sox win 3rd straight game

By JAY COHEN

BOX SCORE

The Associated Press CHICAGO – Jose Quintana pitched eight crisp innings for his third straight win, and the AL-leading White Sox cooled off the Boston Red Sox with a 4-1 victory on Tuesday night.

Jose Abreu had two hits and three RBIs as the White Sox ran their record to 19-8 with its third Jose straight win. They have Quintana won nine of 11 overall to keep up with the major league-leading Cubs, revving up the anticipation for an intriguing summer in the Windy City.

Quintana (4-1) allowed four hits, struck out five and walked none while lowering his ERA to 1.40. David Robertson finished for his ninth save in 10 chances.

Whether it was the reigning NL Cy Young winner’s pitching, or his hitting, or his teammates’ assault on Pirates starter Niese, Arrieta promised more emotion to come in the 17 remaining games to be played this season between the rivals.

CUBS NOTES

Szczur lands on DL, Heyward may return today

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

PITTSBURGH – The Cubs are calling outfielder Matt Szczur’s right hamstring strain “mild,” but not mild enough for the second-year player to avoid the disabled list Tuesday.

Szczur, who excelled with regular playing time after Kyle Schwarber suffered a season-ending knee injury the first week of the season, was hurt running the bases in the fifth inning of Monday’s victory over the Pirates.

“It’s always bad timing,” said Szczur of the first hamstring injury of his sports career. “I’ve just got to focus on the task at hand and get better and come back and make an impact.”

Replacing him on the roster was

left-handed-hitting Ryan Kalish, the 2014 Cub who was out of baseball for a year before signing a minor-league deal in March to rejoin the organization.

He was hitting .368 at AAA Iowa with a .980 OPS. To make room on the 40-man roster for Kalish, the Cubs transferred Christian Villanueva (broken leg) from the 15-day to the 60-day DL. Heyward return Wednesday? The Cubs were without Gold Glove right fielder Jason Heyward, who missed a second consecutive game Tuesday because of right wrist soreness he has played through the last four weeks.

The Cubs are looking at Wednesday’s series finale against the Pirates for Heyward’s possible return to the

lineup.

Out of nowhere: How big a long shot was Kalish’s return to the majors Tuesday?

He had already accepted an offer in March to play for an independent-ball team when the Cubs gave him his only shot at proving he was healthy enough for a job with an affiliated minor-league team – after a career of battling injuries.

“I was going if this didn’t come,” said Kalish, who pinch-hit for starter Jake Arrieta Tuesday in the eighth.

“With this development, it puts it all into perspective. It makes me appreciate what I have, because there’s a lot of guys out there just trying to even be anywhere. And here I am.”

PITTSBURGH – If the Cubs got in the Pirates’ heads Monday, they toyed with their spirits, at least for a day, on Tuesday.

In contrast to the emotional fireworks of Monday’s first meeting between what many believe are the best two teams in the National League Central, Tuesday’s 7-1 Cubs victory brought out a quiet, almost sleepy emotional haze over PNC Park.

“Tonight I don’t think it played out as much,” shortstop Addison Russell said of the emotions at the ballpark Tuesday. “But you saw the way he pitched. He just dealt.”

That would be Jake Arrieta, who sucked the life out of Pirate bats – and the home crowd – over seven scoreless innings.

The closest thing to emotional fire that even the middling, midweek crowd could muster on this night were tepid boos each time Cubs pitcher and Pirates-foil Arrieta stepped to the plate.

Arrieta responded to that by slapping an RBI single up the middle on the first pitch he saw from Jon Niese, in the second inning – which was one more run than he would allow.

After walking the first two batters he faced, Arrieta retired 20 of the 22 batters he faced the rest of the way, allowing only a pair of singles – and haunting the crowd with the kind of dominance he displayed the last time he pitched here, in the wild-card game in October that ended the Pirates’ 2015

these guys throughout the rest of the season, and with the Cardinals and the other teams in our division as well.”

Meanwhile, the historic roll of success that began last June continued with another gem in Pittsburgh for Arrieta: In his past 26 starts, he’s 22-1 with a 0.85 ERA and two no-hitters.

He’s 17-0 with a 0.55 ERA in his past 18.

As much as the video-game numbers keep piling up, he doesn’t take much time to let much of it soak in, he said.

“I think the turnover’s so fast,” he said. “I have to come out tomorrow and get ready for my next start back at Wrigley Field. You try and enjoy it, but it’s short lived because of the goals we have here. We play so many games, so it’s smart to turn the page as quick as possible and get on to the next work day.”

He’s the first Cub to win his first six starts of the season since Three Finger Brown in 1908 – or as one press box wise guy said, the first Cub with all five fingers to do it.

And those 17 consecutive victories? The streak breaks the franchise record set by Rick Sutcliffe – a parttime spring training instructor for the Cubs – in 1984-85.

“Maybe in spring training, I’ll rub it in a little bit,” Arrieta said. “But at this point I think it’s just business.

It’s cool to think about those kinds of things. We all know the career that Rick had.

“But for now, we’ve got to turn the page quickly.”

10 NBA PLAYOFFS ROUNDUP

Warriors roar back in 4th, beat Blazers The ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND, Calif. – Klay Thompson scored 27 points and gave Golden State its first lead of the game on a 3-pointer with 5:33 left, and the Warriors rallied from 11 points down after three quarters to beat the Portland Trail Blazers, 110-99, Tuesday night for a 2-0 lead in their Western Conference semifinal series.

Draymond Green added 17 points, 14 rebounds, seven assists and four blocked shots in another win without injured MVP Stephen Curry, sidelined with a sprained MCL in his right knee.

Game 3 is Saturday in Portland, and the reigning MVP might be back for that one.

NBA Finals MVP Andre Iguodala’s two free throws at 7:25 trimmed the Blazers’ lead to 91-88 and Thompson’s 3 at 6:44 tied it, igniting the sellout crowd inside deafening Oracle Arena as the defending champions erased an early 17-point deficit.

Heat 102, Raptors 96 (OT): At Toronto, Goran Dragic scored 26 points, Dwyane Wade had seven of his 24 in overtime after Kyle Lowry’s halfcourt shot tied it at the buzzer, and Miami beat Toronto in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series.

Joe Johnson scored 16 points and Josh Richardson had 11. Hassan Whiteside had 17 rebounds for the Heat.

Game 2 is Thursday in Toronto.

Lowry’s improbable 3-pointer from his own side of the halfcourt line capped Toronto’s six-point comeback in the final 20 seconds of regulation, but the Raptors couldn’t deliver in the extra session. Toronto went scoreless for the first 3:46 of overtime before DeMar DeRozan hit a jumper.

Dunks by DeMarre Carroll and Jonas Valanciunas made it 99-96 with just more than 10 seconds to play. Toronto got the ball back after a Miami turnover on the inbounds play, but Wade stripped the ball from DeRozan and sealed it with a three-point play.

STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS ROUNDUP

Boyle’s OT goal pushes Lightning past Islanders The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – Brian Boyle scored at 2:48 of overtime to lift the Tampa Bay Lightning to a 5-4 victory over the New York Islanders on Tuesday night for a 2-1 lead in their second-round series.

Nikita Kucherov tied it in the final minute of regulation, and Ryan Callahan, Victor Hedman and Vladislav Namestnikov also scored for the Lightning. Ben Bishop stopped 35 shots.

On the winning goal, the Lightning were on an odd-man rush and Hedman fired a shot from the left side that was wide, but the rebound came off the boards and right to Boyle in front at the right side of the goal and he tapped it in for the win.

Game 4 of the best-of-seven series is Friday night.

Predators 4, Sharks 1: At Nashville, Tennessee, Shea Weber scored the go-ahead goal and had an assist, and Nashville beat Jose Sharks to pull within 2-1 in their Western Confer-

ence second-round series.

James Neal and Filip Forsberg each scored on the power-play, Colin Wilson had a goal, and Pekka Rinne made 26 saves for Nashville.

Patrick Marleau scored for the Sharks, who lost for the first time away from San Jose this postseason and first since a loss at Arizona on March 17.

Blues 6, Stars 1: At St. Louis, Alexander Steen and David Backes had two goals apiece, and St. Louis’ defense put the clamps on Dallas to put the Blues up 2-1 in the second-round series.

Vladimir Tarasenko had a goal and two assists, Troy Brouwer had a goal and assist and Brian Elliott was strong when he needed to be for the Blues in their first lopsided triumph of the postseason. Their other five wins were decided by one goal.

NBA: WESTERN CONFERENCE SEMIFINALS

League: 5 blown noncalls in Spurs-Thunder finish

By BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press

NEW YORK – The NBA said Tuesday there were five incorrect noncalls on the wild final sequence Monday in San Antonio, including a foul on Oklahoma City’s Dion Waiters that referees earlier had already acknowledged they missed.

The league agreed with the refs that Waiters should’ve been whistled for knocking Manu Ginobili back with his elbow to create space to throw an inbounds pass, but also ruled in its Last 2 Minute report that Ginobili first committed a delay-of-game violation by stepping on the sideline as he was defending.

The inbounds play began a frenzied final 13.5 seconds in the Thunder’s 98-97 victory over San Antonio in Game 2 of the Western Conference semifinals. The Spurs ended up stealing Waiters’ pass to Kevin Durant to start a fast break but couldn’t score, leaving the Western Conference semifinal tied, 1-1.

Referee Ken Mauer, the crew chief, said after the game that upon seeing a review of the play, there should have been an offensive foul on Waiters.

On Tuesday, the referees union wrote on Twitter that it had never seen the play before and would incorporate it into its training moving forward.

“Waiters’ foul on Ginobili was the worst missed call in playoff history,” Hall of Famer Magic Johnson wrote on Twitter after the game.

But the problems didn’t stop there.

The league determined the Spurs’ Kawhi Leonard and Patty Mills grabbed

Curry wins Magic Johnson Award NEW YORK – Stephen Curry has won the Magic Johnson Award, given by the Professional Basketball Writers Association to an NBA player who combines excellence on the court with cooperation with the public and media.

Curry led the NBA with 30.1 points per game and a record 402 3-pointers in leading the Golden State Warriors to a 73-9 record, best in league history.

The reigning MVP beat out teammate Draymond Green, Portland’s Damian Lillard, New York’s Carmelo Anthony and Atlanta’s Paul Millsap on Tuesday in voting by the PBWA, made up of about 175 writers and editors who cover the league on a regular basis.

The award was created in 2001 and named for Hall of Famer Earvin “Magic” Johnson, whom the PWBA regards as “the ideal model for the award.”

and held Thunder players, affecting their movement and ability to get open to catch the inbound pass.

Once the Spurs came up with it, Mills ended up getting a jumper from the corner that missed. The Spurs couldn’t get off a clean attempt on the offensive rebound, and the league determined that was because the Thunder’s Serge Ibaka grabbed LaMarcus Aldridge’s jersey and affected his attempt.

Had that been called, Aldridge – who scored 41 points and made all 10 free throws – would have attempted two shots from the line to win the game.

Game 3 is Friday in Oklahoma City.

Jacobs grad Peltier tosses shutout; DNA evidence matched that of Stubblefield, the report said.

MCC sweeps Madison College

Jacobs graduate Reilly Peltier threw a one-hit shutout with 13 strikeouts in eight innings Tuesday to lead the McHenry County College baseball team to a 1-0 win over Madison College in the second game of a doubleheader sweep in Crystal Lake.

The Scots also won the opener, 9-2, improving to 38-10 overall and winning their 18th straight game. Sam Hawley was 3 for 4 with the game-winning hit in the bottom of the eighth inning, driving in pinch-runner J.T. Athy with two outs.

Andrew Reisinger won Game 1, allowing one unearned run on four hits in seven innings with nine strikeouts and two walks. Brett Stratinsky was 3 for 4 with two home runs and four RBIs in Game 1, and Nick Heidenthal was 1 for 3 with a solo homer.

Ex-49er Stubblefield denies sexually assaulting woman

SAN JOSE, Calif. – A former San Francisco 49er defensive lineman charged with raping a developmentally delayed woman denied the charges Tuesday, saying the episode was a consensual encounter with a mentally competent woman who asked for money and a job afterward.

Dana Stubblefield is accused of raping the woman in his home in Morgan Hill, California, south of San Jose. The woman, who was then 31, traveled to Stubblefield’s home April 9, 2015, to interview for a job babysitting his children. Investigators said she left after 20 minutes, but she returned when Stubblefield texted her that he wanted to pay for her time.

After raping her, investigators said, Stubblefield gave her $80 and let her go. The woman immediately went to the Morgan Hill Police Department and reported the rape, prosecutors said.

Stubblefield spoke briefly at a news conference Tuesday in San Jose, saying he was “completely innocent” and noting that he has financially supported the Special Olympics.

“That is why these allegations hurt me so badly,” Stubblefield said, reading a prepared statement. “I will defend myself with all my strength.”

He declined to answer questions.

Court grants Brady extension to appeal ‘Deflategate’ decision

NEW YORK – Tom Brady’s lawyers will get another two weeks to appeal his “Deflategate” suspension.

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said Brady could have until May 23 to decide whether to ask for a rehearing in front of the same three-judge panel or a new hearing – called “en banc” – in front of the entire circuit.

The court ruled, 2-1, April 25 that Commissioner Roger Goodell was within his rights to suspend Brady for four games for his role in using improperly inflated footballs in the 2015 AFC championship game.

Brady was given two weeks to appeal.

But since then, he has added top lawyer Ted Olson to his team.

Cink to step away from golf as wife battles breast cancer

12 BEARS ANALYSIS

Cutler, others can breathe easier after draft

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

the fifth round, when they added power back Jordan Howard, so it’ll begin as Langford’s backfield in 2016.

LT Charles Leno: Ronnie Stanley and Jack Conklin were popular mock draft picks for the Bears from draft analysts who didn’t buy into the team’s belief that Leno is more than capable of protecting Cutler’s blind side. When those two went in the top eight, suddenly the story of the draft (and the top overall prospect), Laremy Tunsil, was available and the Bears traded up – but they took Leonard Floyd, and did not draft a tackle. Leno is set to start on the left side.

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com It’s not only the prospects, media and fans who pay close attention to the draft. NFL veterans can learn a lot about their standing by what their team does – or doesn’t do – in the draft at their position.

Here are a few Bears players who have to be pleased with general manager Ryan Pace’s nine draft picks: QB Jay Cutler: Friday was Cutler’s 33rd birthday, and the Bears gave him a gift – they didn’t draft a quarterback.

Now, they did sign a veteran backup, Brian Hoyer, who figures to be Cutler’s best backup since Josh McCown, but Hoyer isn’t coming to take Cutler’s job.

“I do like the idea of having a more experienced backup there. It’s important for that position, and it just gives us security going forward,” Pace said.

A draft pick at quarterback likely would have been perceived as Cutler’s heir apparent, someone who could take Cutler’s job sooner than later if things went awry for the offense this season.

“It was interesting to see how it fell out,” Pace said. “Obviously, we are taking best player available every time,

Quarterback Jay Cutler is among the players whose status on the team was strengthened tory. They took Floyd, however, and did not draft a corner until the middle by the Bears’ selections in the NFL draft. so the way it worked out for us is that we didn’t draft a quarterback. We would have if it lined up right for us, but I’m glad we got Hoyer.”

So is Cutler.

RB Jeremy Langford: The second-year player had about a month to enjoy being the new starter after the Bears announced they would not re-sign Matt

Forte, then Langford might have started worrying. The Bears made a play for C.J. Anderson, only to see him re-sign in Denver. Then there were plenty of connections between the Bears and the draft’s top back, Ezekiel Elliott.

But the Bears didn’t take Elliott, who certainly would have supplanted Langford. They didn’t draft a back until

of the fourth round when they selected Northern Iowa’s Deiondre’ Hall. That shows some confidence not only in the two starters but also Callahan, last year’s nickel (when healthy). Hall will challenge Callahan and could be the No. 3 corner, and there are other corners to monitor this summer, but for now, these three are set to be at the top of the pecking order.

Republic of Tea issues recall on green tea

NOVATO, Calif. – The California-based company The Republic of Tea is recalling one of its green tea blends as a precaution over fears of possible salmonella contamination.

The company said Monday the voluntary recall of its Organic Turmeric Ginger Green Tea comes after a supplier said one lot of its organic ginger ingredient could be contaminated.

Tests conducted by The Republic of Tea found no salmonella. No illnesses have been reported.

Company official Todd Rubin said the recall is a precautionary measure.

The Republic of Tea is based in Novato, just north of San Francisco. Its teas are distributed around the world.

Here in America, we think of white asparagus as the pink elephant of the vegetable world – not even a rumor so much as a hallucination.

It actually has been a staple in Europe for centuries. These days, happily enough, I’ve been spotting white asparagus more often on our side of the pond.

White asparagus is white because the spears never are exposed to sunlight as they grow. Without sunlight, they produce no chlorophyll. Without chlorophyll, they don’t turn green. White asparagus is a little milder and more delicate in flavor than the green variety.

It’s also rich in nutrients and very low in calories.

At the supermarket, the best white asparagus boasts the same attributes as the best green asparagus: a firm, smooth stalk and a tight top. While I am a fan of any kind of green asparagus – be it pencil-thin or thick as a carrot – thicker is better when it comes to white asparagus.

Once you get it home, slice off the bottom half-inch of each spear, then stand the entire bunch up, cut-side down, in a glass or narrow pitcher filled with a few inches of water. Cover the tops with a plastic bag and refrigerate until you’re ready to cook them. This little trick, which works equally well with green asparagus, will keep them fresh longer.

White asparagus has a tough, bitter peel. Unlike green asparagus (which I only peel when it’s more than 1/3 inch thick), white asparagus must be peeled.

Otherwise, it’s very hard to chew.

Because white asparagus tends to break easily, peeling these guys requires a little extra care. You want to lay each spear on the counter. Then, using a vegetable peeler, peel it from just below the tip to the end of the stalk. Also, white asparagus takes much longer to cook than its green cousin.

I tried both steaming and boiling the asparagus and, surprisingly, found no difference in taste. I’d worried boiling it might leave the spears waterlogged, but as long as you pull them out of the water when they’re tender, that isn’t really a problem. Lightly salting the water is key, though. The asparagus absorbs the salt, which points up its flavor, making it taste more asparagus-y. Salting it after you’ve cooked it will not have the same effect.

Given the relative subtlety of the flavor of white asparagus, I recommend pairing it with similarly subtle ingredients, ones that will harmonize with – but not overwhelm – the asparagus. For this elegant salad, conceived as a treat for mom on Mother’s Day, I teamed the white asparagus with an orange vinaigrette, toasted hazelnuts and aged goat cheese. If you can’t find white asparagus,

don’t sweat it; this recipe will work just as well with the green or purple (but cook them for less time).

Asparagus With Orange Vinaigrette, Toasted Hazelnuts and Aged Goat Cheese Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 6

1/3 cup orange juice 2 tablespoons finely minced shallots 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil 2 pounds fresh white asparagus, the bottom 1/2 inch discarded and the spears peeled from just below the tip down the length of the stalks 1 cup fresh orange segments 2 ounces crumbled aged goat cheese 2/3 cup coarsely chopped toasted hazelnuts Chopped fresh dill, chives or tarragon, to garnish

In a small saucepan over medium, simmer the orange juice until it is reduced to 2 tablespoons. Add the shallots, vinegar, mustard and salt and pepper. Whisk until the salt is dissolved, then add the oil in a stream, whisking.

Set aside.

In a large saucepan over medium-high, bring 3 inches of salted water to a boil. Add half the asparagus and simmer for 6 to 8 minutes, or until tender (take one out, cut a piece off and taste to determine doneness). Transfer the spears to paper towels to drain, then cook and drain the remaining asparagus in the same manner.

On a large platter toss the asparagus gently with two-thirds of the dressing, then season with salt and pepper. Transfer the asparagus to plates and top each portion with some of the orange segments, cheese, nuts, herbs and a little of the remaining dressing.

Better breakfast in bed

3 tips for an improved, easier Mother’s Day morning

By MELISSA D’ARABIAN The Associated Press

Breakfast in bed is a love language in our home. Anytime there is a special occasion to celebrate – a birthday, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, whatever – the rest of the family follows an unspoken agreement to meet early in the kitchen to craft a breakfast-in-bed tray. I’m always first to the kitchen, and as I get the project rolling my daughters show up one at a time, bleary-eyed and clutching handmade crafts or cards and some flowers picked from the garden.

As the team leader for many of the breakfasts our family has orchestrated over the years, I’ve developed a few best practices. And my No. 1 tip: Do the bulk of the work the night before.

Overnight breakfast recipes are key.

The (critical) decorating of the tray with small kiddos sucks up a surprising amount of time, leaving precious little space for complex recipe execution in the morning.

Tip No. 2: Serve something a little special. Stepping outside the routine breakfast menu has incredible power to make the whole morning feel like a party.

Tip No. 3: Keep in mind the logistics of eating off a tray while mostly reclined in bed. Cereal, aside from breaking rule No. 2, is just about impossible to eat in bed without spilling.

And while you don’t need to be limited to finger food, think twice before getting too cozy with messy and liquid-based meal ideas. (It takes weeks for the smell of maple syrup to leave a comforter after a serious spill. ) So what dish covers all these bases?

And is healthy? Egg strata, which layers bread, eggs, meat and veggies all in one dish. I make mine in a muffin tin, which results in perfect portioning, pretty presentation and the flexibility to pick up breakfast with your hands or use a fork and knife. I use white whole-grain bread and a combination of eggs and egg whites to keep the nutrient profile reasonable. So even your morning breakfast party can boost your day with protein and fiber.

Easy Overnight Individual Egg Strata Start to finish: 45 minutes, plus overnight chilling Servings: 8

8 slices of white whole-grain bread

2 small breakfast sausage links or 1 large link chicken sausage, mild or spicy (uncooked), casings removed 1 clove garlic, minced 1/2 cup finely chopped button or mixed mushrooms 4 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed and excess liquid squeezed out 1/4 cup (2 ounces) light cream cheese 1/4 cup salsa 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 2 whole eggs 2 egg whites 3/4 cup low-fat milk Kosher salt and ground black pepper 2 medium tomatoes, cut into 8 thin slices 1/4 cup shredded Gruyere, Swiss or cheddar cheese Cut the crusts off the bread, then cut the crusts into 1/2-inch cubes and set aside.

Use the palm of your hand to lightly press the slices of bread flat, making them thin and a little doughy. Coat the cups of a muffin pan with cooking spray, then gently press 1 slice into each cup, creating 8 little crusts. Set aside.

In a medium sauté pan over medium-high, cook the sausage, crumbling with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Add

the garlic and mushrooms and cook until fragrant, about another minute. Add the spinach, cream cheese and salsa, then cook for another 2 minutes (the mushrooms will not be fully cooked). Remove from the heat and stir in the mustard. Allow to cool for several minutes.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites and milk until frothy. Add the slightly cooled mushroom and sausage mixture and stir to combine. Season with generous pinches each of salt and pepper.

Place a few cubes of bread crust in each muffin cup, then spoon the egg mixture on top. You may not need all of the bread crusts.

Lay 1 slice of tomato on top of each tart, then 1/2 tablespoon of cheese over that.

Cover the muffin tray with foil and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When you are ready to serve, heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake for 15 minutes covered, then remove the foil and continue baking until the eggs are firm, another 10 to 15 minutes.

Cottage cheese cuts fat, keeps flavor

By MELISSA D’ARABIAN The Associated Press

Cottage cheese is a staple in my home. I love its creamy, mild flavor.

It pairs perfectly with some garlic and herbs to make a protein-packed crudité dip, yet it also is at home in a quick dessert of cottage cheese and unsweetened applesauce (a d’Arabian weeknight favorite). Half a cup offers tons of protein (14 grams) plus calcium and vitamins, and all for just about 80 calories and only 3 grams of carbs.

Plus, it’s inexpensive.

Cottage cheese is more than just a snack; it’s also a handy and nutritious ingredient. I love using it as a swap for ricotta in just about any recipe. Simply spoon the cottage cheese straight from the carton and use or, for extra points, drain or blot the excess moisture from the cottage cheese and pulse in the food processor and you’ll have almost exactly the texture of ricotta cheese.

You even can use cottage cheese as a base for a lusciously creamy salad dressing. Just blend up the cottage cheese with a few tablespoons of very hot water, which will soften the curds just enough to make the results creamy. Add smashed garlic, lemon juice, fresh herbs and black pepper, and you have a tasty dressing or dip.

One of my favorite ricotta indulgences is Italian ricotta cake, which is something between a classic cake and a cheesecake. Sweet and fatty, a little sliver goes a long way.

Here is my cottage cheese makeover of this yummy (calorie-dense) treat. I use cottage cheese, of course, but I also cut the butter way down and kept the sugar on the lower end (1½ teaspoons per serving). Loads of lemon zest keep it exciting, and

the almond flour ensures the fats are healthy (and offer a smidge of protein and nutrients). All of which makes my lemon cottage cheese cake not exactly as authentic as a trip to Rome, but certainly a perfect way to end a Mother’s Day meal.

Lemon Cottage Cheese Cake Start to finish: 1 hour Servings: 12

3 eggs, separated 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature 3/4 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese 1/4 cup grated lemon zest (2 to 3 lemons) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup almond flour or meal 1¼ cups whole-wheat pastry flour (or all-purpose flour) 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

3/4 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 1/4 cup low-fat milk Powdered sugar, to serve (optional) Raspberries and chopped fresh mint, to serve (optional) Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray, then line with kitchen parchment.

In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the egg whites to stiff peaks, then set aside.

In a large bowl, use the mixer to beat together the butter and sugar for 1 minute.

Add the egg yolks and mix again until creamy and pale, about 2 minutes. Add the cottage cheese, lemon zest and vanilla, then mix on medium until very well blended and the cottage cheese is broken down a little.

In a medium bowl, sift together the almond flour, pastry flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Mix half of the dry ingredients into

the butter and egg mixture and mix on low with the mixer. Add the milk and the remaining dry ingredients, then mix on low to blend.

Using a rubber spatula, fold in half of the whipped egg whites rather briskly until well mixed into the batter. Fold in the second half of the egg whites very gently, until blended in, but not deflated.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake on the oven’s middle shelf until the cake is golden and springs back under light pressure, about 35 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes before removing from the pan, then let cool completely. Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar and serve with raspberries and mint, if desired.

Ready to mix it up on Mother’s Day? Try rye berry pancakes

By ALISON LADMAN

but blueberries or sliced strawberries would be a great choice, too.

Breakfast in bed on Mother’s Day is practically mandatory. Which is fine.

But that doesn’t mean what you serve needs to be the same old plain pancakes. After all, Mom is special. Her breakfast should be, too.

So we created these rye-based pancakes that offer a hearty – but not heavy – alternative to the typical flapjack. They are a fun and delicious way to work whole grains into the meal. And to dress them up a little more than usual, we spiked the usual maple syrup with cocoa powder. We added fresh raspberries to the batter,

Raspberry Rye Pancakes With Chocolate Maple Syrup

The Associated Press

Start to finish: 15 minutes Servings: 6

3/4 cup all-purpose flour 3/4 cup rye flour 3 tablespoons sugar 1½ teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup milk 2 eggs 6 tablespoons butter, melted, plus extra

for cooking 1 cup fresh raspberries 1/2 cup maple syrup 2 tablespoons cocoa powder Heat the oven to 275 degrees F. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rye flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a second bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs and butter. Stir the milk mixture into the flour mixture just until moistened; there should still be some lumps in the batter.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Melt a small amount of butter in the pan and swirl to coat the bottom.

Drop 1/4 cup batter into the pan and nestle

a few raspberries into the batter. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until set around the edges and bubbled. Flip over and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Place on a pan in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.

In a small saucepan, whisk together the maple syrup and cocoa powder. Cook over medium to warm, whisking frequently. Serve over the pancakes.

By MELISSA D’ARABIAN The Associated Press

Salade nicoise was the first recipe I made when I lived in France, a country that later would become my second home as an adult.

But at the time, I was 19, spending a semester abroad. A week after my arrival, my French was barely sufficient to order a coffee, let alone get me through my first French cookbook. Despite the language barrier, one thing that book made clear was a true salade nicoise never would include tomatoes because of the acid.

I stood at a turning point: Would I follow the cookbook’s stern direction (even I understood the author’s tone – the tomato thing was not an “optional” point), or would I include my personal favorite part of every salade nicoise I had ever eaten (dare I even call them that anymore?)? I left out the tomatoes.

Nearly 30 years later, I make salade nicoise on a regular basis for my family. It’s what I call a “tray salad,” or a huge salad I make by layering ingredients on a large tray, perfect for serving a crowd. We have a lot of family nearby, so if we have unexpected extra folks to feed, tray salads are easy to stretch. Just bulk up the tray with whatever extra ingredients are available. Toss on a couple extra hardboiled eggs, for instance, and the salad can accommodate a few more guests no problem.

With several family members being vegetarian, I have created a tuna-free version that gets the salty-fishy-brininess from capers and nori seaweed, and the protein from creamy white navy beans. Of course, there is no harm in opening a can of tuna on the side for fish-eaters, but honestly, I don’t even miss it with this filling recipe.

White And Green Bean Vegetarian ‘Salade Nicoise’ Start to finish: 25 minutes Servings: 4

Abraham Lincoln said, “If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?”

Last week, we had a deal with two faces; the result rested on West’s decision as dealer -- to open or not to open. Here is another, today for declarer and tomorrow for a defender.

South is in four hearts. West leads the spade king. East overtakes with the ace and returns the suit. West takes that trick, cashes the club ace, and plays another club. How should South continue?

After West’s one-spade opening bid was passed around to South, he might have jumped to three hearts.

In this balancing position, it would have been an intermediate jump overcall (not weak), showing at least a six-card suit and some 15-17 points.

But it would typically have indicated a stronger suit than this one.

North’s three-heart raise was no thing of beauty, with a 10-loser hand, but with four-card heart support, it was hard to pass.

Declarer has surrendered three tricks, so must play the trump suit without loss.

Whenever an opponent opens the bidding, declarer should always count the high-card points. In this deal, South can concentrate on either defender. First, East. He passed over one spade, denying six points. But he has already produced the spade ace; he cannot have the heart king.

Next, West. There are only 17 points missing, and East has shown up with four. West must have the heart king.

So, instead of taking the finesse (the right play in isolation), declarer cashes the heart ace and hopes that the king drops. It’s South’s lucky day.
