Taking dose of Vitamin C no panacea for motel cough I think I had a slight cold last week, although I’m not willing to say it was a full-blown cold.

I felt run-down, my throat was sore. This shouldn’t have been happening. Even for a couple of days.

For the past couple of years, I have been taking megadoses of vitamin C – 1,000 milligrams a day, with wild rose hips, which are particularly high in vitamin C. My parents convinced me to take the vitamin C pills. They claim they haven’t had a cold in the 20-some years they have been taking the pills. Who’s going to argue with that kind of success?

We went to visit them in Fort Madison, Iowa, over the weekend for my dad’s 82nd birthday, and, by extension, my brother and sister-inlaw’s 40th wedding anniversary. They’re from Minnesota, but decided to celebrate it in southeastern Iowa, the gateway to Eden.

I blame the slight cold on the quick trip to Iowa. You know how you leave dogs at a kennel when you are traveling, only to pick them up with kennel cough? I think that’s what I came down with. Not a cold, but motel cough.

And this was a nice-enough motel. Relatively new, clean, comfortable, no latent smell of cigarette smoke, a quiet heater, a friendly staff, a good bed. But by Sunday, I had the makings of a slight cold. By Monday, I was feeling a little run-down. By Tuesday, I was back on the mend, feeling better but not great. That would have to wait until Wednesday. Or Thursday. Or Friday.

Ugh. It must have been motel cough, not a real cold. I’m taking megadoses of vitamin C, after all, and my parents haven’t had a cold in a generation. Maybe I’m in denial.

I started taking the vitamin C after I went through a series of three or four colds in a winter, and that’s when my parents let me in on their secret weapon. They even sent several bottles to give it a try.

They break their dosage in half, taking 500 milligrams in the morning and 500 in the evening. It’s supposed to offer 24-hour extended relief protection, so I’ve been taking both of my pills in the morning. Twenty-four hours is 24 hours.

That’s for prevention of the common cold.

There’s nothing for the cure of the common cold once you get it, and I’m assuming the same is for motel cough.

I’ve been watching “Star Trek,” and I’m coming to the close of the three-year, 80-episode series – only five more shows to go, and I’m

VIEWS Dick Peterson kind of bummed out about it. But I am looking forward to “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” which had a much longer run. “Star Trek” happens about 250 years in the future, which is a lot of time for medical advances. But in a recent episode, Dr. McCoy, the Enterprise’s chief medical officer, was mocked by one of the characters, it could have been Capt. James T. Kirk, for not having cured the common cold.

That doesn’t give me much hope for the future.

Cockroaches and germs for the common cold will survive a nuclear holocaust. That’s a great foundation for the next civilization.

But this slight cold – motel cough – has me reassessing my vitamin C strategy. Maybe I should break it up like my parents, and take 500 milligrams in the morning and 500 in the evening. Then I’m getting overlapping protection.

I shouldn’t be getting a cold with 1,000 milligrams of vitamin C pumped into my system.

But I can easily split the dosage in half, as I already take three pills at 4 p.m. It’s just a matter of putting that rather large vitamin C pill in with the others. The only problem is water.

Sometimes, I’ve run out of water by the time I take my three pills, but they’re small enough that I can swallow them without it. That won’t be the case with the vitamin C pill. I’ll need to have a small glass of water to slide it down my throat, and that’s a bit of an inconvenience.

But it is well worth it if it wards off another slight cold or motel cough. But motel cough may be a strain that is resistant to prevention.

It has many of the symptoms of the common cold, but not quite. My nose isn’t as runny, the cough is dry and infrequent, and the sore throat mostly happens at night when I’m sleeping and not drinking water to lubricate my gullet.

I’m not willing to say I have a full-blown cold; the symptoms just aren’t there, and I want to believe in vitamin C. So motel cough it is, a variant vitamin C doesn’t protect against. Drat.

As a nurse, runner and mom, Angel Heaver nurtures her ‘tribe’

By HANNAH PROKOP hprokop@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Whether it’s with her patients, running partners or daughters, Angel Heaver said she encourages women to never give up and support each other.

“I think we put everything on our shoulders and get everything done, but we forget about ourselves,” Heaver said. “So we need other women to help us, remind us that we’re pretty important, and I think that’s my role.”

The mother of two from Woodstock is a nurse practitioner at Northwest Health Care Associates in Hoffman Estates. When she was first pursuing her master’s degree, she also worked a night shift as an emergency room nurse at Centegra Hospital – Woodstock, while taking care of high-schoolers and trying to get some sleep.

“I wanted to keep pursuing it because I had decided, and I don’t quit,” Heaver said. “I follow through, and that’s what I try instilling in both of my girls, is perseverance … I’m not going to just stop because it got difficult.”

Heaver, 45, said she was the only person in her family to go to college, and her hard work has inspired her daughters, 24-year-old Lindsay Cooper and 20-year-old Lacey Heaver, to do the same.

When Cooper’s husband was deployed shortly after their 1-year-old son, Connor Cooper, was born, she said her mother showed her it was possible to have a family life and get an education.

“It was really hard … but with her encouragement, I was able to raise him that first year and go to school full time,” Cooper said.

There was a point in her schooling where Cooper said she got very discouraged, but her mother showed her that it was the end result that matters.

“You don’t have to be perfect, you don’t have to be the best, but the fact that you’re doing it is what matters,” Cooper said.

This year Cooper is set to graduate from McHenry County College with an associate degree in science and arts and an emergency medical technician certification, and she hopes to be a firefighter/paramedic when Connor and 6-year-old stepson James Cooper are older.

Cooper said her mother also in-

Heaver’s thesis as a nurse practitioner centered on stress women experience and the physical disease that can come from untreated stress, and one of her goals is to make sure women, whether they are single mothers, widows, married or single, take care of themselves.

Heaver has multiple examples of women she’s encouraged – from a patient whom she helped lose 150 pounds and get out dating, to a mother in her running group whom Heaver helped build self-esteem and start running again.

“I like keeping women on their feet, pursuing things and not giving up,” Heaver said. “So that’s what running is about, is not giving up.”

Randall impasse causes frustration

By CAITLIN SWIECA cswieca@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – After the McHenry County Board’s latest discussion about the long-planned Randall Road widening, Algonquin Village President John Schmitt said he is “incredibly frustrated” with the impasse on the project.

“I’m accustomed to some residents coming before the board and not really understanding how things work and how you get things built and how you fund things and understanding [population projections] and things like that,” Schmitt said, “but it dismays me a little bit when County Board members don’t seem to understand those things.”

The County Board decided Tuesday to hold a Committee of the Whole meeting in the near future to discuss the future of the project and communication problems within the board’s committee structure.

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. County Board Chairman Joe Gottemoller, R-Crystal Lake, said at least $9 million has been spent to date.

After Algonquin and Lake in the Hills officials have collaborated with the County Board since the early 2000s to plan and set aside land for the widening, Schmitt said he believes there will be “total cha-

Schmitt contends the project would maintain and boost business not only in Lake in the Hills and Algonquin, but also nearby towns such as Crystal Lake and Huntley. He said Randall Road business owners he’s spoken to are “absolutely terrified” at the prospect of the project being killed.

“They just shake their heads like, ‘What’s wrong with these people?’ ” Schmitt said. “The traffic on Randall Road is so bad on weekends, people don’t want to come here to shop, and it’s hurting their businesses.”

In nearby Lake in the Hills, officials said the widening is a top priority of theirs. Village President Paul Mulcahy

said he is eager to see what comes out of the Committee of the Whole meeting, which has not yet been scheduled.

“It’s a little frustrating the project is bogging down a little bit procedurally, but I’m encouraged,” Mulcahy said. “I think it’s pretty secure it will move on.”

Mulcahy told the County Board last week a major business that wants to move into the vacant Dominick’s on Randall Road is watching the progress of the project closely.

“It needs to be done,” Village Trustee Russ Ruzanski said. “Lake in the Hills and Algonquin are 100 percent behind it.

Hopefully, it would help fill some of those vacant businesses, not even including the big one, which is the Dominick’s.”

Woodstock police sergeant earns award

By HANNAH PROKOP hprokop@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – In 14 years with the Woodstock Police Department, Sgt. Tino Cipolla has led the police explorer program, overseen department and field training and volunteered for charity events.

All were factors in him being selected for the Rising Shields of Law Enforcement award, and why Woodstock Police Chief Robert Lowen said he nominated Cipolla.

Cipolla, 35, was one of three recognized for the award. Winners were selected by the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police from nominations around the state of officers younger than 45 who represent progressive law enforcement leaders.

Cipolla said he was “taken aback,” when hearing he was honored, and said he gives credit to Lowen and Woodstock Dep-

uty Police Chief John Lieb for allowing the department to be successful.

The Woodstock Police Department did not have a police explorer program before Cipolla started leading it in 2012, he said.

Now there are 25 explorers from 14 to 21 years old who participate in the program that Cipolla said helps bridge the gap between law enforcement and youth.

“It really shows police in a different light, and a Sgt. Tino true light really, on what Cipolla law enforcement is about,” Cipolla said.

Through the program, students learn about the law enforcement field and other skills, including interviewing and filling out a resumé and application. Graduates have gone on to join the U.S. military and pursue education in law enforcement

fields, Cipolla said. Another passion of his is training, Cipolla said, and it can be challenging keeping himself and officers up to speed with the evolving field.

Despite his busy schedule with the department, Cipolla also participates in events including Special Olympics, the Polar Plunge and Shop with a Cop. “By the very nature of our positions, I think we have a duty to give back to the community,” Cipolla said. “We’re in a very special position within law enforcement as first responders in general, and we have to do more than just our jobs.”

Cipolla will now be adding a new task to his job, as he was recently selected to be a McHenry County Sheriff’s SWAT team officer. Lieb said Cipolla being chosen for the team shows how he is not only a good trainer, but he also can execute his skills.

“I enjoy all of it, so I make time for it,” Cipolla said.

Roundabout’s future in limbo

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The proposed improvement of Randall Road isn’t the only McHenry County Board road project to be stuck in a legislative traffic jam.

A plan to replace the intersection of Charles and Raffel roads with a roundabout, which was one County Board vote away from being approved, instead was sent back to committee, where it has languished since. And as with the Randall Road project, the frustrated chairwoman of the board’s Transportation Committee said she hopes a Committee of the Whole can move things forward.

“This is an expensive Anna May change of heart, and I Miller would like to see everyone weigh in on it,” said Chairwoman Anna May Miller, R-Cary.

The County Board was set to vote April 5 to approve the $2.6 million bid to build a roundabout at the intersection, which county staff and transportation plans have identified as prone to crashes and in need of improvement.

But board members decided instead on a 12-9 vote to send it back to committee.

While some members historically have opposed roundabouts, others questioned whether Woodstock School District 200 could be asked to help defray the cost – Woodstock North High School and the district’s transportation center are near the intersection.

Improving the two-way-stop intersection has been on the County Board’s highway improvement plan since 2009.

“This is an expensive change of heart, and I would like to see everyone weigh in on it.”

Anna May Miller Transportation Committee chairwoman But while past committee members had backed the roundabout concept, it went to the full County Board without a positive recommendation from Transportation, which rejected it on a 3-2 vote.

The committee again rejected the roundabout Wednesday on a 2-4 vote.

They then discussed a more traditional – and more pricey at $3.6 million – plan to build a signal intersection, but that failed on a 3-3 vote with one member absent.

The County Board already has agreed to hold a Committee of the Whole, likely early next month, to try to iron out a direction on the $97 million Randall Road widening project. After years of planning work and millions already spent, the project is threatened by a similar hang-up in committee over whether to allocate more money to buy the needed land, as well as a growing number of board members who would like the project scuttled.

In both cases, local leaders have implored County Board members that the projects are needed. Woodstock Mayor Brian Sager and Greenwood Township Highway Commissioner Don Goad asked members to approve the roundabout, while Algonquin Village President John Schmitt and Lake in the Hills Village President Paul Mulcahy

stressed to board members last week that Randall Road needs to be widened and its busy intersection with Algonquin Road improved.

Besides choosing a direction on the future of the Randall Road project, board Chairman Joe Gottemoller, R-Crystal Lake, said the Committee of the Whole meeting will focus on the board committee system to address the recent spate of impasses. Because of turnover – more than half of the 24-member board has been elected in the past four years – Gottemoller said members might not fully understand or appreciate how the system works.

Miller said she hopes a similar Committee of the Whole for the Charles Road roundabout, provided her committee is open to the idea, could not only break that particular impasse, but also help with what she called a larger problem.

“We follow a process, we go right to the edge and then we go right back to the start and do it again?” Miller said.

Should the County Board move ahead with the Charles Road roundabout, the project will have to be rebid because the 45-day window to accept the lowest of three companies’ bids expired.

A roundabout, a common sight on roads in Europe, is a circular intersection that supporters say is a safer alternative to traditional intersections, and more environmentally friendly because they take up less space. Because there is only one-way movement throughout the roundabout – cars travel counterclockwise until they find their turn – they all but eliminate the possibility of head-on and right-angle collisions.

The first roundabout in McHenry County opened in 2014 in Johnsburg.

Village may seek funding for path, parking

By CAITLIN SWIECA cswieca@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – The village will look into four possibilities, including two bike path extensions, median landscaping and added downtown parking, for a possible funding application to the Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program.

The Illinois Department of Transportation opened up applications for grants this month after a new federal transportation bill, the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act, was passed in December.

Village Manager Dave Johnson presented options for applications Thurs-

day, in what he called an “extremely preliminary” review.

“What we did, and we need to come back for final authorization before moving forward with any of the projects, is we strategized to identify some areas we think would be available to receive funds,” Johnson said.

The first two options were related to the village’s bike paths, with one proposal that would connect the Reed Road bike path from Route 47 west to the existing path at Vine Street and another that would add a bike path on Kreutzer Road from Haligus Road to the existing path near the Wal-Mart entrance.

Another project would add median

landscaping on Algonquin Road from Route 47 to Haligus Road and on Route 47 from Rainsford Drive to Interstate 90.

The final project would add more parking and stormwater management facilities south of the recently completed downtown parking lot.

The Village Board gave staff approval to explore all four projects and see which would be most feasible to apply for its funding.

Johnson said ITEP’s program can fund up to 80 percent of projects with a maximum award of $2 million.

Huntley previously received ITEP funding to build a bike path along Route 47 from Kreutzer Road to Oak Creek Parkway.

Medical aid-in-dying is only for terminally ill, mentally competent adults. It’s really not a complicated or difficult subject. If you’re terminally ill…if you’re mentally competent and adult…if you so choose…you should have the right to the means to a peaceful, easy death. Your doctors should be able to help you. Simple as that.

This fascinating film follows several terminally ill Oregon residents who take advantage of Oregon’s law, and the 2008 campaign to establish this fundamental human right in the state of Washington.

McHENRY – Police are investigating the cause of a crash that seriously injured two people on a motorcycle Friday.

McHenry police and McHenry Township Fire Protection District were dispatched about 3:30 p.m. to the 2500 block of Route 31 in McHenry for the crash involving a 2002 Ford Taurus and a 2007 Harley-Davidson Road Glide, officials said.

Police said the Ford was traveling north on Route 31 and the motorcycle was traveling south on Route 31.

“All we know for right now is that the Taurus lost control for an unknown reason and then went into the southbound lane,” McHenry Police Sgt. Kevin Cox said.

There were two people on the motorcycle, officials said. Both were taken to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville – one by Flight for Life – with serious injuries, officials said.

As of Saturday morning, one person was in critical condition, and one was in fair condition, Cox said. He could not give more information on the age, gender or town of residence of the people involved.

The driver of the Ford, 45-year-old Sheree Ann Shaw of Twin Lakes, Wisconsin, was taken into custody and charged with no valid driver’s license, police said. Shaw posted bond and is set to appear in court June 8 in Woodstock, police said.

Officials said Shaw was not injured in the crash, and there were no passengers in the vehicle.

The crash caused police to shut down a section of Route 31 for more than five hours Friday.

Cox said the crash still is under investigation, and police do not know whether other vehicles were involved.

Anyone with information can call the McHenry Police Department at 815363-2200 or the anonymous tip line at 815-363-2124.

8 HUNTLEY

48th ANNUAL

Oldest portion of roof at school to be replaced Project estimated to cost about $1.69M

By ALLISON GOODRICH agoodrich@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – An almost $2 million roof replacement project at Huntley High School will encompass a larger portion of the roof than initially planned, Huntley School District 158 officials said.

The School District 158 Board during a special meeting Thursday approved a change order for the project to include an additional 29,289 square feet, bringing the total project area to 97,560 square feet, director of operations and maintenance Doug Renkosik said.

“We did it that way because we had not yet opened bids for masonry work and weren’t sure of the cost,” he said, adding the goal was to replace as much

of the 20-year-old portion of the roof as possible while staying within the budget.

Favorable bids for masonry work, which also were opened Thursday, allowed the board to broaden the scope of the project, Renkosik said.

The project was part of this year’s budget and approved last month by the school board. Funding for it is coming out of the operations and maintenance fund.

The change order, which was approved, 5-0, with members Kim Skaja and Kevin Gentry absent, added about $646,200 to the contract, bringing the total cost up from about $1.04 million to about $1.69 million.

Arlington Heights-based G.E. Riddiford Roofing will be carrying out the project, which, Renkosik said, will include the core area of the high school.

The work is scheduled to begin June 6 and be completed by the time the next school year begins.

Cheer group to start special needs team

By ALLISON GOODRICH agoodrich@shawmedia.com McHENRY – After seeing the effects of cheerleading on her own daughter’s self-confidence, Shannon Sterrett wanted to help launch a McHenry-based program that would help other kids in similar situations.

Sammy Sterrett, 18, was born with a visual impairment and has cognitive disabilities. She started cheering with a Crystal Lake special needs team when she was 10, Shannon said, and the results have been incredible.

“She’s very outgoing, and she loves to perform,” Shannon said. “I’ve seen her self-confidence grow so much.”

That’s why the McHenry mother this year decided to team up with the McHenry Junior Warriors Cheer and Dance nonprofit organization to start the McHenry Junior Warriors Radiant Warriors special needs cheer team.

Currently recruiting from across McHenry County, the Radiant War-

riors will practice, perform at sporting events and compete from the start of July to early December, MJW Cheer and Dance President Kristin Kostakos said.

“We’ve wanted to do this for a few years, and we had this dream and vision in mind,” Kostakos said, later adding, “We wanted to offer an opportunity to children and students who have disabilities and who sometimes can feel excluded from recreational sports.”

The goal is to not only teach cheers and choreography, which the organization believes will improve motor skills and flexibility, but also to instill confidence in the members and a chance to be social.

Male and female youths ages 9 to 22 are welcome to register and should do so by July 1.

Kostakos compared the concept to Sammy’s first team in Crystal Lake,

Shannon said there is a payment plan parents can use.

“When we first started with this, I just wanted [Sammy] to be a part of something,” said Sterrett, who eventually coached the Crystal Lake Sparkle Squad. “These kids will build their confidence and learn how to perform in front of a crowd. And it becomes like a little family.”

The plan for the park at 599 Longwood Drive includes upgrades to drainage, landscaping and the basketball court/ hockey rink.

The project initially had been estimated at $426,000.

Memorial ride planned for deputy If you go

By CAITLIN SWIECA cswieca@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Dwight Maness’ name is now etched in stone at the Illinois Police Memorial in Springfield.

Maness, who was shot during an October 2014 domestic incident at the Holiday Hills home of Scott B. Peters and died unexpectedly from a blood clot in his lungs during a physical Dwight therapy session in August 2015, was honored Maness Thursday at a ceremony in Springfield.

The sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post that Maness’ family was joined at the ceremony by Sheriff Bill Prim, the McHenry County Honor Guard and several members of the sheriff’s office.

Maness’ name also will be etched onto the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, D.C., this

n WHAT: Memorial motorcycle ride fundrais-

er for Dwight Maness’ family n WHEN: Registration will begin at 9 a.m.

and the escorted ride will start at 10:30 a.m.

June 4 at Woodstock Harley-Davidson. n COST: $20 a rider or $30 for a motorcycle with a rider and passenger year. Deputy Aimee Knop previously said members of the sheriff’s office plan to attend that ceremony as well.

In a continued effort to raise funds for Maness’ family, a memorial motorcycle ride fundraiser is planned for June 4 at Woodstock Harley-Davidson.

The ride will cost $20 a rider or $30 for a motorcycle with a rider and passenger, Holiday Hills Police Chief Tony Colatorti said.

Half of the funds will go to the Blue Lights for Nicholas charity, which benefits Maness’ family. The other half will go toward a planned memorial park for Maness in Holiday Hills, Colatorti said.

Welcome Dr. Bonnie L. Bremer!

The event will feature raffles, vendors and live music. Registration will begin at 9 a.m. and the escorted ride will start at 10:30 a.m.

Colatorti said he hopes to make the ride an annual event with 100 percent of future proceeds going to Maness’ family.

The event comes after a fundraiser Sunday at 3D Bowl in Island Lake raised about $4,500 to help send Ma-

ness’ family to the memorial in Washington.

Colatorti said more than 100 people attended that event and more than 15 volunteers assisted.

The police chief still is accepting donations for the family until May 15.

Checks payable to Blue Lights for Nicholas Foundation can be mailed to the Holiday Hills Police Department, 1304 Sunset Drive, Holiday Hills, IL 60051.

LOCAL BRIEFS Illinois State Police have identified a man killed in a crash Friday morning on the Kennedy Expressway as 22-year-old Griffin Krewer of Huntley.

A preliminary investigation showed that about 7:30 a.m. a purple Dodge Caravan, driven by Krewer, was traveling south in the far right lane on the Kennedy Expressway at Harlem Avenue, according to a news release from the Illinois State Police.

Krewer was driving the Dodge Caravan at a “significant rate of speed� when it struck a white Ford pickup truck, police said. The impact caused a four-vehicle pileup, and all southbound lanes at Harlem had to be shut down, police said.

All vehicles except the Dodge Caravan were stopped at the time of the crash, police said.

A 42-year-old Chicago man in one of the vehicles struck was taken to Resurrection Hospital in Chicago with injuries that were not considered to be life-threatening, police said. Everyone involved was wearing a seat belt, police said.

The investigation of the crash is ongoing, police said.

“Wine with Friends� will be from 7 to 10 p.m. Saturday at Savour Gallery & Wine Boutique, 302 S. Main St. The event will support the 56th annual Algonquin Founders’ Days Festival, scheduled for July 28 through 31 at Towne Park. There will be wine tasting, hors d’oeuvres, cigars and art by local and international artists. There also will be a preview of Founders’ Days happenings, and volunteers may sign up for shifts at the festival. The cost is $35 a person.

By HANNAH PROKOP hprokop@shawmedia.com HEBRON – After a yearlong service project, Alden-Hebron Elementary School fifth-graders created a book filled with stories and pictures of veterans who they interviewed in class.

The 28 students spent the year learning about veterans and recording interviews so they could write the final product, said Colleen Geils, who is co-coordinating the project.

Now students and veterans will come together for a book signing open to the public at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday at Alden-Hebron Elementary School, 11915 Price Road, Hebron.

Sarah Gulgren, special education teacher at Alden-Hebron Elementary School and service learning coordinator, said the 10- and 11-year-olds were better able to connect with the information they were leaning in their classes after the interviews.

“That connection sparked that drive to want to help people,” Gulgren said.

Johnson, of Volo, has younger children, and said Heaver supports her and other mothers because she is able to give a different perspective, having children who are already grown.

And when Heaver’s girls were growing up, at the end of a stressful day, she

said she taught herself to find purpose in what she did during the day and focus “on the little things.”

“Just seeing your kids grow up and pursue their own lives with success and grit ... it’s just what you wanted,” Heaver said. “They’re my best friends now.”

This Town, she’s been able to share her message.

“She’s always talking about us being a tribe and finding women that support you and bring you up, instead of women that kind of bash you down,” running group member Jenni Johnson said.

NANCY JO ROBERTS Nancy Jo Roberts of Algonquin, IL, died peacefully on April 29, 2016, surrounded by her family at age 81.

Roberts was born in Attica, IN to Alma (Hartz) Russell and Carlton Russell. Her father died unexpectedly when she was very young. Her mother Alma was remarried to Virgil Johnson and together they had one son, her brother David Johnson.

Roberts loved education and excelled academically. She attended Indiana State University before relocating to Chicago where she worked in public relations for Compton’s Encyclopedia. She married Keith Roberts and together they raised two daughters, Robin and Page, in Trout Valley, IL. In 1968, Roberts started teaching yoga classes in the Chicago land area. Her love of yoga expanded to writing and she launched her syndicated column “The Yoga Thing” in the Chicago Sun-Times and Washington Star-News. Aside from raising children, Roberts felt her greatest accomplishment was authoring a successful book “The Yoga Thing” in collaboration with husband Keith who photographed the books’ many photos.

A lifelong voracious learner, she returned to college in her 50s and graduated with high honors from Lewis University. She loved and closely followed the NBA and college basketball. In earlier years, Roberts served in the Barrington Hills Book Club and Algonquin Garden Club.

STATE

Investigation: CPS not in need of state takeover The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – An investigation into the fiscal condition of Chicago Public Schools ordered by Gov. Bruce Rauner shows there’s no need for state intervention.

The Illinois State Board of Education determined that the school system is not in “financial difficulty” as determined by law, the Chicago Tribune reported, but board officials say they will continue to monitor the nation’s third-largest district.

The Republican governor called for a state takeover of the financially troubled district in February. As part of that, he ordered the review, which was followed by a warning by the state attorney general that Rauner’s purview is limited.

“It’s clear in our analysis CPS has financial challenges and a spending problem. However, at this time they do not meet the criteria for certification of financial difficulty, as defined per statute.”

Laine Evans Illinois State Board of Education spokeswoman week note that the Chicago district plans to cut spending by $120 million in the fiscal year beginning July 1 while still dealing with ever-larger required payments to teacher retirement accounts. But the cut will allow the district to skirt a “negative operational budget” until 2019, board staff concluded.

“It’s clear in our analysis CPS has financial challenges and a spending problem,” state school board spokes-

woman Laine Evans said in a statement. “However, at this time they do not meet the criteria for certification of financial difficulty, as defined per statute. ISBE will continue to monitor the situation and the district’s finances.”

CPS spokeswoman Emily Bittner said in a statement that the board’s conclusion “demonstrates that Gov. Rauner’s attempts to drive CPS into bankruptcy are misguided and

The district must make a $675 million pension payment next month.

Officials said they can cover that bill only with short-term borrowing and that the Legislature must rectify problems with the statewide school-funding formula.

“You don’t need an actuary or an accountant to know CPS has financial problems,” Rauner spokeswoman Catherine Kelly said in a statement.

“Otherwise, the district wouldn’t be repeatedly asking the state for an additional half a billion dollars.”

The district complained about Rauner’s request to turn over loads of financial information, but did so anyway. Attorney General Lisa Madigan issued a legal opinion agreeing with the schools, noting that state law deals with Chicago schools differently than others in the state.

Democrat Hillary Clinton, a millionaire, and Republican Donald Trump, a billionaire, likely will be rivals in the November presidential election.

2016: A billionaire and a millionaire in year of populism

By BILL BARROW and CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press ST. CLAIRSVILLE, Ohio – Pick a president: New York multimillionaire or New York multibillionaire.

In Ohio River coal country, Nelson Travis said he begrudgingly will choose the billionaire: real estate mogul Donald Trump. Nonetheless, Travis argues, neither the presumptive Republican nominee nor Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton gets people like him.

“They’re both out of touch with people’s everyday reality,” the 64-year-old Republican said, dismissing Clinton’s talk of “breaking down barriers” and Trump’s “make America great again” motto.

The likely November rivals’ personal portfolios don’t exactly square with the populist wave defining 2016.

Trump, a multimillionaire’s son, is worth about $4.5 billion according to Forbes, although he claims more. Forbes estimates Clinton to be worth about $45 million, a fortune built entirely since she and her husband, President Bill Clinton, left the White House in 2001.

But the candidate who connects with the widest swath of “average Americans” (median household income of about $54,000) will find the clearest path to the Oval Office.

The connection will prove particularly important in Rust Belt, Great Lakes and Midwestern states stretching from Pennsylvania to Iowa, where Democrats have prevailed in recent presidential elections but by narrow enough margins to give Trump hope.

“We are in a new age of economic populism,”

explains Dave “Mudcat” Saunders, a Democratic strategist who helped craft John Edwards’ “Two Americas” presidential campaign in 2004.

“People are hurting. They’re mad, and they want somebody who’ll do something about it.”

Trump and Clinton are addressing their personal wealth differently.

Unlike previous wealthy nominees, such as Republican Mitt Romney in 2012 and Democrat John Kerry in 2004, Trump plays up – and boasts about – his riches. Clinton is more likely to talk about her middle-class childhood than her current accounts. She took heat for saying she and her husband were “flat broke” when his second term ended, and she has struggled against her Democratic rival Bernie Sanders, who has made income inequality his core issue.

Going into a general election matchup, Trump appears to have the upper hand with the most frustrated voters.

Throngs roar at his calls to build a wall at the Mexican border, close all U.S. borders to noncitizen Muslims, and “bring back the jobs” from China and Mexico. He promises to “take care of people” and not cut Social Security or Medicare.

“Even though he’s rich, and he’s always been rich, he’s just like Bob in the country,” said Terri Reschley, 62, of Indianola, Iowa.

Clinton offers a different style, although aimed at the same voters. She talks about raising minimum wages, improving education and creating jobs, peppering her remarks with anecdotes of people she meets campaigning. Clinton also speaks of her mother’s tough childhood and her small-businessman father’s efforts to “provide us with a middle-class life.”

LOTTERY

5 holdouts fighting closure of assisted-living home

By MATT SEDENSKY

Alice Singer (center), an artist who is a resident of the assisted-living apartments Prospect Park Residence, is visited by her daughter Joyce Singe (left), and her nextdoor neighbor, Annemarie Mogil, on April 7 in the Borough of Brooklyn in New York.

The Associated Press NEW YORK – The stately dining room at this once-bustling old-age home has been emptied, its floors ripped up.

The tiny general store’s shelves are barren, and the exercise room has gone silent. No one is leafing through the books of the library or digging into a treat in the ice cream parlor or painting at an easel in the art room.

All that remains are five women, ages 91 to 101, in the fight of their long lives.

Two years after the sale of Prospect Park Residence was announced, nearly all of the assisted-living facility’s 125 residents have long since heeded management’s orders to leave. But five holdouts have refused, challenging the handling of the $76.5 million sale and sparking a web of litigation. Their fight sheds light on the rights of the elderly and the difficulty of transition in life’s twilight.

“I think we have that right to do what we want to do,” said 93-year-old Annemarie Mogil, a retired social worker who has remained in her eighth-floor apartment at the home. “I’ve earned my rest. I worked hard. I deserve my peace.”

As the building in the trendy Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn emptied, a small band of tenants decided to

fight. Local politicians came to their side and The Legal Aid Society filed suit on their behalf. As the months ticked by, they said management purposely worsened conditions in hopes of persuading them to leave. The holdouts said they were being bathed less frequently, saw housekeeping scaled back and central air conditioning cut off in favor of less-effective window units. They said hot water was tampered with.

Those moves, opponents of the sale

said, were orchestrated by building owner Haysha Deitsch even as he raised fees on the holdouts. He denied it, and in a countersuit against the families of the remaining residents, he called for $50 million in damages for their interference in the sale, “slanderous” allegations and resulting “mental anguish.”

In an emailed reply to questions from The Associated Press, Deitsch said he always followed the law, that residents always got outstanding care and he nev-

er cut back services. Closing was not an easy choice, he said, but costs became untenable. He portrayed the remaining residents as unable to make decisions on their own, and represented by individuals with questionable motivations.

“The representatives of those who remain are not negotiating in good faith.

They repeatedly have changed their positions and moved the goal post,” Deitsch wrote. “Those representing the remaining residents are acting out of greed and malice and appear unwilling to offer any compromise or reasonable position.” Deitsch said residents’ complaints should really be with the Legislature and state regulators. New York City Councilman Brad Lander also sees lax state oversight, although he isn’t letting Deitsch off the hook.

“He is evil. He is acting in a way that I think is sociopathic. But the state health department has essentially taken the side of the sociopath,” Lander said.

A Brooklyn state court judge ruled the initial closure plan inadequate and intervened on specific complaints, including the resumption of central air conditioning and consistent hot water.

Families of the holdouts are fighting a new closure plan, saying appropriate new homes still have not been found for the remaining five.

Orthopedic Update Physician: Rolando Izquierdo, MD A Breakdown of Knee Ligament Injuries

The “anterior cruciate ligament” (ACL) is one of two ligaments (the posterior cruciate ligament being the other) that runs diagonally in the middle of the knee and prevents the tibia (shinbone) from sliding out in front of the femur (thigh bone). Tears of this major knee ligament are particularly serious, requiring surgery and extensive rehabilitation, which is why researchers wanted to identify those high school athletes most at risk. They found that there is significant risk of ACL injury among both genders, particularly those playing high-risk sports such as soccer, football, basketball, and lacrosse.

In addition, while most ACL injuries occur among males, the risk for ACL tear per athletic exposure is higher in female athletes compared to males.

Injuries or conditions that damage the ligaments, bone, cartilage and other soft tissues surrounding the knee joint can often be repaired with minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery or knee scope. The knee scope is usually an out-patient procedure that offers smaller incisions, earlier rehabilitation, and an earlier return to activity. If you have pain due to any sports related injuries, the specialists at ORTHOILLINOIS can help. To schedule an appointment, please call 815-398-9491. We are located at 750 E. Terra Cotta Ave. in Crystal Lake or 12519 Regency Parkway in Huntley.

Officials hoping to complete Alberta wildfire evacuation The Associated Press

Ryan Remiorz/The Canadian Press via AP

A wildfire burns Saturday south of Fort McMurray, Alberta, near Highway 63. Canadian officials hoped to complete the mass evacuation of work camps north of Alberta’s main oil sands city of Fort McMurray on Saturday, fearing the growing wildfire could double in size and reach a major oil sands mine and even the neighboring province of Saskatchewan. sized, is highly resilient to forest fires as we have seen in past when it’s previously been threatened by very large fires,” Notley said.

The mines are resilient to fires because they are cleared and have no vegetation, said Morrison. He said the sites also have very good industrial fire departments, and that the fire wasn’t expected to reach the oil sands mines north of Suncor.

The fire and mass evacuation has forced a quarter or more of Canada’s oil

output offline and was expected to impact an economy already hurt by the fall in the price of oil. The Alberta oil sands have the third-largest reserves of oil in the world behind Saudi Arabia and Venezuela. Its workers largely live in Fort McMurray, where some neighborhoods have been destroyed.

Police said many parts of smokefilled Fort McMurray are burnt and visibility is low. Officers wore masks as they checked homes to make sure everyone was out.

LAC LA BICHE, Alberta – Canadian officials hoped to complete the mass evacuation of work camps north of Alberta’s main oil sands city of Fort McMurray on Saturday, fearing a growing wildfire could double in size and reach a major oil sands mine and even the neighboring province of Saskatchewan.

Chad Morrison of Alberta Wildfire said the massive blaze in the province covered more than 385,476 acres and could be 741,300 acres by the end of Saturday because of high temperatures, dry conditions and high winds. Morrison expects to be fighting the fire in the forested areas for months.

“In no way is this fire under control,” Alberta Premier Rachel Notley said.

Thousands of displaced residents were getting a sobering drive-by view of

some of the burned-out neighborhoods as convoys continued Saturday. The images were largely ones of devastation – scorched trucks, charred homes and telephone poles, burned out from the bottom up, hanging in the wires like little wooden crosses. No deaths or injuries were reported.

Notley said about 12,000 evacuees have been airlifted from oil sands mine air fields over the past two days and about 7,000 have been evacuated in police escorted highway convoys. She said the goal was to complete the evacuation of evacuees from northern work camps by late Saturday.

Officials said the fire could burn to the edges of the Suncor oil sands facility, about 15 miles north of Fort McMurray.

Nonessential staff have been evacuating and efforts to protect the site were underway.

OUR VIEW

‘Mothers, most of all’ While billions are spent on the efforts, no greeting cards or floral arrangements can really express the significance of the bonds we share with our mothers.

Journalists have an old professional saying, “If your mother says she loves you, For the record check it out.” It’s a point about not While we’ve set aside one taking anything day a year dedicated to celeat face value and brating motherhood, what our looking for second mothers instilled in us is what and third sources makes the best of us. to verify information.

The fact that what’s being questioned is a mother’s love is purposely hyperbolic, because everyone knows a mother’s love – despite our imperfections and all human frailty – is one of the biggest truths there is.

While we’ve set aside one day a year dedicated to celebrating motherhood, what our mothers instilled in us is what makes the best of us.

Former Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes put it succinctly, “The real religion of the world comes from women much more than from men – from mothers most of all, who carry the key of our souls in their bosoms,” Holmes said.

How we treat others. How we should carry ourselves. What is fair? What is just? When should compassion be shown, and what lesson can be taught and how? The nuances and emotional intelligence we gather from our mothers becomes part of our DNA. Mothers provide us with the highest standard of love we can have in this life. Unconditional, unflinching, uncompromised. Without that foundation, how can we learn to love others, from our own families to those who surround us in our communities?

Mothers set the standard for dignity and respect and are held in our highest esteem. How much better would we be as a society if people always wondered whether their mothers would approve of their words and deeds?

If your mother is no longer alive, spend some time sweetly reflecting on her memory today. If you’re lucky enough to still have her, make sure she feels your gratitude – especially today.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Smarter guns, safer communities It’s impossible, in this day and age, to pick up a stranger’s password-protected mobile phone and send a text. It’s easy to steal anyone’s gun and fire away.

It makes no sense for lethal weapons to be less protected than communications and entertainment devices. So President Barack Obama wants the government to assist in the development of smart-gun technology, which has the potential to reduce the number of preventable deaths.

The need is great. At least 278 children unintentionally killed or injured someone with a gun last year, and at least 84 already have done so in 2016. Additional suicides and murders have been committed by people using guns that did not belong to them.

Personalized firearms, enabled by biometric sensors

or, for example, a bracelet worn around the owner’s wrist, also would strengthen personal accountability – which is not a priority for the gun lobby.

In 2000, when Smith & Wesson agreed in a legal settlement with the federal government to support safe-gun technology, the gun activists led a boycott of the company. More recently, stores selling a smart gun manufactured by Armatix have faced similar boycotts.

For the NRA, smart technology is another fantasy mudslide on the world’s slipperiest slope – the one that ends in government confiscation of all guns. With the gun lobby fervently opposed to smart technology, the Obama administration hopes to use the government’s vast purchasing power to serve as a “market participant” that can spur inno-

vation. The National Institute of Justice has funded research into technologies, including biometric readers and proximity devices employing radio frequency to make guns operable only by their owners.

Police organizations also are being encouraged to weigh in on what designs and features would work best for law enforcement officers. No police force will be required to adopt new technologies it doesn’t endorse. And no company will be required to manufacture them.

Resisting technological innovation never has been a winning strategy, especially when the status quo is not working. And the status quo – 100,000 Americans killed or injured by gunfire each year, and many more terrorized by it – is unacceptable.

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

Bloomberg View

VIEWS Cal Thomas the other side.

They are the ones who over-regulate even small businesses, stifling their growth and preventing the creation of new ones. They so penalize initiative that if today’s OSHA regulations had been applied to Wilbur and Orville Wright, the two visionaries never would have emerged from their Ohio bicycle shop, much less flown for the first time at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

The career politicians, the lobbyists, the lawyers, the self-serving institution that government has become (instead of the constitutionally limited, people-serving institution it originally was created to be) have fueled the rise of Donald Trump. It doesn’t help their position now that these elites appear at least as arrogant as Trump in their denunciations of him while refusing to accept re-

sponsibility for what they have failed to dismantle.

As Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan has noted, Trump projects love for America, and an increasing numbers of voters, who also love America, are captivated by his love song, even if he sings it off key.

Many of those voices that have warned of dire consequences should Trump become president have enabled big government. Republican politicians, afraid of their own shadow, the media and the Democrats, have done little to reverse any of this.

When former House Speaker John Boehner refers to Sen. Ted Cruz as “Lucifer,” it is a case of the pot calling the kettle black. What did Boehner do as speaker, other than cut deals with Sens. Harry Reid and Ted Kennedy and kiss former Speaker Nancy Pelosi on the cheek as she handed him the gavel? She instinctively must have known Boehner wasn’t going to rock the boat and would do little damage to the Democratic agenda until the day that party would return to the majority and members would resume their

former ways.

Voters gave Republicans a majority in both houses of Congress, and they did almost nothing with it. It is why Boehner was ousted by conservative members of his own party.

Don’t you have a right to be angry if you love America, if you served in the military or have relatives who did, as I have and did? The anger is bipartisan, as the popularity of the socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) attests.

This lyric from the British punk rock group Dead Swans might help explain the country’s mood: “You’re lying to yourself, just like you always have, the words you said never meant a thing, I could see it from the start, you just want attention, absent friends and enemies are all that’s left in your life, every day is like a knife cutting through your chest, constant frustration, you choked on the best years of your life, no love, no hate, no hope, all lies.”

Say no to financial aid for illegal immigrants

To the Editor: I cannot believe with our Illinois debts and the fact Illinois cannot pay some of its bills that we have some representatives who want to pay for illegals in the state of Illinois to get financial aid to go to college.

Have we all gone crazy?

Let the representatives who vote for this pay out of their own pockets.

As an 88-year-old taxpayer who pays more than $7,500 in real estate taxes and got no increase in my Social Security payments, I am totally opposed to this outrageous idea.

I will be on the phone talking to the governor’s office and representatives over this plan to spend my (our) taxes on this plan.

Sanders’ policies never would get through Congress, and alas would result in another four years of nothingness.

Does entering the public sector as a “servant of the people” allow you, in such a short time, to amass so much money you can afford to spend $3.5 million for hush money and still have a fortune left? What’s the statute of limitations on corruption? No wonder career politicians have lost our trust.

Dr. Frankenstein created the monster that bore his name, and if Dr. Jekyll had not conducted those experiments in his laboratory, Mr. Hyde never would have emerged to terrorize London.

In literature, we know whom to blame for the monsters, but who is to blame for the rise of Donald Trump?

Is he the “monster” the elites say he is?

I am no fan of Trump and wish there were better candidates for president from both parties, but the major fault for his rise as the “presumptive nominee” of the Republican Party in 2016 can be laid at the feet of the very elites who are so vociferous in their condemnation of him.

It is they who have presided over the horrific national debt, spending as if there were no tomorrow.

They are not good stewards of the money we make and they take. It is the elites who have started wars we should not have fought and then not fought them to win with too many “rules of engagement” that only guarantee stalemate, or victory for

Crystal Lake’s new Jax Auto and Tire plans open house May 21 NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – Jack Shields started changing oil and pumping gas when he was 16.

Now with more than 28 years experience in the automotive industry, Shields, 44, has opened his own automotive service business, Jax Auto and Tire, located at 5220 S. IL Route 31 in Crystal Lake.

But Jax Auto and Tire isn’t your ordinary tire and tuneup shop. It has a lounging area with an at-home feel, free arcade games, a dining room table and more.

“I wanted to be different. I had a vision that was different,” Shields said. “I wanted my customers to have an ‘athome’ feeling while they are waiting for service. We have a full-size dining room table in our customer waiting room. It works because we had a customer who came in at lunchtime to get a tire repaired, he brought his lunch and sat down at the table. I brought in a few arcade games from my personal collection for my customers to enjoy. They are on free play at all times. I love it when someone looks and says, ‘are those pinball machines in there?’ ” Photo provided

FINANCE Mike Piershale Once you’ve made these contributions, you may want to consider maximizing the tax benefits by funding your Roth with investments that incur the biggest tax bill.

Some of the biggest culprits are taxable corporate bonds including high-yield taxable bonds. You’re investment income is taxed at ordinary income tax brackets on these types of investments, which trigger the highest amount of tax.

Investments in Roth IRAs grow tax-free and earnings are not taxed on withdrawals provided you are at least 59 1/2 and your initial contribution is at least five years old.

If you make your first contribution now based on the 2016 tax year, the start date for your five-year countdown is Jan., 1st of 2016.

You might also consider opening a Roth with a small amount of money like $10 just to start the five-year countdown even if you are just thinking about contributing to a Roth.

Once you get past the five-year mark for your initial contribution, you never have to satisfy this requirement again for future contributions.

Crystal Lake’s Ed’s Rental & Sales celebrates its 60th anniversary NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – Don Thennes, owner and operator of the Ed’s Rental & Sales Crystal Lake location, was given a Community Investment Award during the May 3 Crystal Lake City Council meeting to celebrate the company’s 60 years in business, according to a news release.

Since 1956, three generations of the Thennes family have been helping local residents and businesses get projects done and throw parties by renting everything from construction and garden supplies to event tents.

Formerly the Thennes Oil Company, owned by John Thennes and his son Edward in the 1940s and ‘50s, Ed’s Rental was passed down to Ed’s sons, Tom and Richard, in 1970. The business outgrew its original location, and Tom and Richard bought 4 acres on Route 176 in 1978.

In 1993, Tom’s son, Don, came to work at the Crystal Lake store after graduating from University of Wisconsin, followed by his other son, Peter, in 2000.

Six years later, Don and Peter bought an existing rental operation in Algonquin to add to the company’s Crystal Lake and McHenry locations.

If you are retired and no longer working and your spouse has earned income for 2016, you very likely can put money in a Roth IRA using the working spouses’ income.

This is through the use of what is called a spousal Roth IRA, which simply means both spouses, if they qualify, can contribute to either a traditional or Roth IRA based on the earnings of just one spouse as long as you are filing taxes jointly.

There are some restrictions: First you and your spouse need to fall within the income limitations for contributing to a Roth IRA for 2016.

The ability to contribute starts phasing out for married couples filing jointly when they’re modified adjusted gross income reaches $184,000. It phases out completely at $194,000.

The working spouse needs to have enough earned income from wages or self-employment income to cover contributions made by both spouses. Investment income does not qualify to make contributions to a Roth.

Simply put, the spouses total combined contributions cannot exceed the taxable compensation of the spouse who is still working.

In 2016, as long as at least one spouse has $13,000 in earned income, you can contribute up to $6,500 to a Roth in the wife’s name and up to $6,500 to the Roth in the husband’s name, assuming you’re both 50 or older. For those under 50, the contribution limit is $5,500 apiece.

Also, unlike the traditional IRA, you can still buy a Roth after age 70½ as long as one spouse has earned income.

You have until April 17, 2017, to make contributions for the 2016 tax year.

Jax Auto & Tire is located on Route 31 just north of Route 176 in Crystal Lake.

• JAX Continued from page 26 Shields’ father owned a Union 76 station in Palatine for more than 30 years.

“I started changing oil and pumping gas at the full serve island at the age of 16,” Shields said.

“It was there that I learned hands on how to work on vehicles under the guidance of my dad’s two technicians. I owe a lot of what I know today to those two guys.”

After his father sold the garage, Shields said he bounced around new and used auto dealerships before returning to the auto service industry, including Star Auto Authority in Vernon Hills. It was while he was working at Star Auto when he started thinking about opening his own shop.

Shields said he began looking in 2009, but it was shortly after the recession and the timing wasn’t right.

Last October, Shields said he was driving south on Route 31 when he saw a “for rent” sign on the property that is now his business. He knew this was it. He

formulated his business plan, took out a business loan, and opened up shop April 18, he said.

“I have worked at some of the best facilities in northern Illinois, and some of the worst,” Shields said. “I took the good, discarded the bad, and implemented in Jax Auto and Tire what I believe will become a premier repair facility in the Crystal Lake area and all of McHenry County. We will do that by customer service that is second to none.”

Shields and his wife, Heather, live in Island Lake.

Jax Auto and Tire is open from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays. It is closed Sundays.

It will be hosting an open house from 1 to 5 p.m. Saturday, May 21.

Visitors can enjoy free hot dogs, and pop and water will be sold for $1 each, with proceeds donated to On Angels Wings Pet Rescue. An adoption event will take place at the open house. Pairs of Cubs and White Sox tickets will be given away as well as a TV. For information, visit www. jaxautoandtire.com.

want your 22-year-old niece, nephew or grandchild who just graduated college in charge of things. I would advise choosing someone with a little more life experience, and maybe some success in the real world.

The people who say family shouldn’t do this are the same ones who say you shouldn’t have family in your business. You can have family in both.

You just have to have good boundaries, clear roles, and honest, mature people.

Make sure you give clear instructions and explanations for your decisions, too. Sit down with your family, explain who the executor’s going to be, and why, along with what the will says. It’s also not

Dear Dave, I’m getting married this summer, and I’m on Baby Step 4 of your plan while starting to invest for the first time. My fiancé is getting onboard with your advice, and he’s currently in the process of paying down his student loan. Should I put my emergency fund money, minus $1,000, toward his student loan debt?

– Elizabeth

Dear Elizabeth, Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I’m really proud of you guys, too, for your mature behavior where money is concerned.

First, don’t pay anything of his until after the wedding and you two

are home from your honeymoon.

At that point, “mine” and “his” becomes “ours,” and you can realign your money situation to reflect your total money makeover as a couple.

Make sure that “we” have an emergency fund of at least $1,000 in the bank at that point. Then, if you like, you can throw the rest of what you previously had in your emergency fund at the debt.

You can both also pile up cash between now and the big day, so that after you two are official you’ll have even more cash on hand. Who knows, you might be able to knock out that student loan completely and begin your life together debtfree. That would be awesome!

Dear Joyce, I don’t necessarily agree with this line of thinking. In my mind, a family member who is competent and has integrity can definitely be the executor. “Executor” just means they execute, thus the name.

They’re going to execute the wishes of the will. If the family member has the business acumen and trustworthiness to execute the wishes and directives in a will, then that’s perfectly fine.

Just remember to use some common sense, too, when choosing an executor. If you have an extremely complicated estate, say 80 pieces of real estate with investments and everything, you probably don’t

a bad idea to have an initial reading of the will while you’re still alive.

This communicates your wishes personally and takes some of the pressure off of the executor.

Disney Co. and Comcast’s NBC Universal.

Forrester Research analyst James McQuivey said he believes programmers are testing the economics of liveTV subscriptions over the Internet with smaller platforms before they commit to major technology companies such as Apple and YouTube, which have both expressed interest in selling similar viewing alternatives.

Hulu expects to have 12 million subscribers by June, but YouTube’s free website already attracts an audience of more than 1 billion people and Apple has built a fiercely loyal following among the customers who own its iPhones, iPads, Macs and TV-streaming boxes.

“No one is going to hand the keys of the content kingdom over to Apple or YouTube until they understand how this all works with the lesser players,” McQuivey said.

Streaming services are trying to create alternatives to traditional pay-TV packages in an attempt to appeal to a growing number of Americans who are canceling or refusing to sign up for the networks bundled together by cable and satellite providers.

NEW YORK – Hulu is expanding its Internet TV programming with a subscription service offering a mix of live cable and broadcast options that will include news and sports.

The move will pit 8-year-old Hulu, a streaming service created by TV networks to counter the threat posed by Google’s YouTube, against similar cable-like bundles already being offered over the Internet by Dish’s Sling TV and Sony’s PlayStation Vue. Hulu CEO Mike Hopkins confirmed his service’s foray into live programming at a presentation last week in New York. But he didn’t provide many specifics, including how much a monthly subscription will cost or how many channels will be available.

“Very soon, fans will be able to enjoy favorite shows and cheer for favorite teams, all on Hulu,” in a “deeply personalized experience,” he said.

Hulu has connections in Hollywood because it is co-owned by three of the major players in cable and broadcast programming — 21st Century Fox, Walt

SUNDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Emotional matters will interfere with your productivity. Get back to business and focus on situations that you can control. Don’t feel you have to take on the world or be extreme in order to reach your goals. Moderation and balance will lead to victory.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – A retreat or getaway for you and a loved one will do you both good.

Don’t leave anyone in charge of your personal affairs or responsibilities – get things done before you take off.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Keep your lines of communication open and honest. Willingness to

work toward a common goal will help you avoid backlash. If you are patient, you will get your way.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Your thoughts and ideas will intrigue someone. Participate in an event that will allow you to show off your attributes. An offer you receive will be too good to refuse.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Go about your business and tend to your affairs. The less that others know about your whereabouts and concerns, the easier it will be to put your plans in motion.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – An emotional mistake will be taxing. Implement damage control quickly by using your charm and offering incentives to get others to see things your way. Intelligence will win out over brute force.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Don’t procrastinate about

taking an educational course or a special vacation.

It’s up to you to set a budget that will allow you to achieve your dreams. A change in direction will lead to satisfaction.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Don’t let a troublemaker get in your way. Learn from experience and refuse to give in to persuasive tactics. Focus on relationships that offer the highest returns.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Listen and observe. You’ll be badly represented if you fail to speak on your own behalf. Evaluate your current status, and implement the changes required to improve your position.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Get your personal papers in order. You can double your assets if you make good decisions regarding investments and

lifestyle. A romantic attitude will ensure that you get your partner on board with your plans.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Listen to the voice of reason, but don’t give in to someone trying to bully you. Look for a way to make money doing something you enjoy. Financial independence equals freedom.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Don’t let someone’s jealousy ruin your day. Stand tall and do your own thing. The support you do get will confirm who is on your team and who isn’t.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Emotional deception will be a problem today. Don’t get involved in rumors or put yourself in a position that could lead to gossip. Focus on improving your image, skills and knowledge.

Birthday cake blow-out dampens mood for guest Dear Abby: I am sometimes invited to friends’ birthday parties and, while I enjoy the celebration, I have one hangup. When it’s time to blow out the candles, sometimes my friends will blow real hard or even need more than one breath. (We’re not exactly spring chickens.) To me, this is the equivalent of spitting all over the cake, and I can’t bring myself to eat any after this display.

What is a “nice” way of saying, “I don’t want any cake,” without falling back on the old, “I’m trying to lose weight,” especially since other snacks and drinks also are being served? I don’t want to be a ... Party

Pooper

Dear Party Pooper: Your distaste is shared by many people. An effective way to handle the problem would be to mention your “quirk” to your

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips friends long before their birthdays roll around. You also could set an example when your birthday arrives by serving cupcakes instead of a large one to your guests. Many people avoid the problem in this way – and the portions are perfect.

Dear Abby: My handsome, intelligent, physically fit husband looks much younger than his age. But he is vain and won’t get hearing aids. Because he can’t hear, he stands looking at people with a faraway expression on his face that makes him appear like he has dementia. It takes him a while to process the spoken word, and then sometimes

he gets it wrong. He has gotten angry with me because he couldn’t understand something I was saying.

Any tips for me and others on how to deal with this? I’m ready to quit trying to have a conversation with him. He easily could afford to buy hearing aids. – End Of My Rope In

Oklahoma

Dear End: What’s going on is not only not good for your relationship with your husband, but also extremely isolating for him. I do have a suggestion for you: Discuss your concerns with your family physician. Perhaps if the doctor suggests he have his hearing checked by an audiologist, your husband will be less likely to tune the message out. Advances in hearing aids are being made all the time, and some of them fit into the ear canal and are hard to detect.

Dear Abby: I would like to give a wedding gift to a friend’s son who is being married soon. We were not invited to the wedding. Is this OK? – Not Invited

In San Francisco

Dear Not Invited: Not only would it be OK to give the happy couple a gift as a token of your good wishes, but it is generous of you to want to under the circumstances.

Dear Readers: Today I am wishing a very happy Mother’s Day to moms everywhere – birth mothers, adoptive and foster mothers, stepmothers and grandmothers who are raising grandchildren. My heartfelt applause to you all for what you do every day. – Love,

Abby

T

he box score line Jacobs’ Mike Addante posted against Prairie Ridge on April 12 was impressive enough: 4-2-3-0.

The manner in which Addante accumulated those statistics was what really stood out. The Golden Eagles’ leadoff man reached base four times without hitting the ball out of the infield, a testament to his speed and resourcefulness.

The left-handed-hitting junior beat out three infield ground balls and once reached on an error. Essentially, he stole the Eagles’ first two runs, scoring on a dropped third strike throw to first, then stealing second and eventually scoring on a ground ball as Jacobs defeated Prairie Ridge, 7-4, in a Fox Valley Conference crossover baseball game.

Although Jacobs (15-10) has skidded after an 11-1 start, the Eagles still hope to be a force leading into their Class 4A regional tournament. Addante, who is hitting .341 and has stolen 11 bases in 14 attempts, plans on being as disruptive as possible atop the lineup.

“If I can get on base, I’m pretty confident in myself either stealing a bag and being on second and scoring early in the game,” Addante said. “I’ve been hitting the ball well, been seeing pitches well and making good contact.”

Addante is fourth on the team in RBIs (12), first in home runs (two) and second among the regular starters in batting average (.341). He committed to Nebraska three months ago and will sign with the Cornhuskers in November.

“People use the term ‘five tools.’ He has all of those,” Jacobs coach Jamie Murray said. “He has all the tools coaches are looking for at the next level. That’s why (Nebraska coach) Darin Erstad reached out and offered [a scholarship]. He’s a great kid. He’s been with us for three years.”

Addante and No. 2 man Stevie Krueger (.452) are the Eagles’ top two hitters and two of their fastest players.

Krueger admires Addante and considers him a leader through the way he works.

“His speed is his main thing,” said Krueger, who is having a strong season himself. “It helps him not only in beating out ground balls, but in the outfield he can get to everything. It definitely helps me out a little more (at No. 2).

They worry about him and may leave me something over the plate I can hit or

• Sunday, May 8, 2016

WOODSTOCK – Alyssa Sutherland and Addison Fortin couldn’t stop laughing. Egged on by their Marian Central teammates, the two sophomores couldn’t keep a straight face.

“We’re pretty weird,” Fortin said.

“Kind of really weird,” Sutherland responded.

The lighthearted Hurricanes had plenty to feel good about Saturday morning as they closed out the regular Addison Fortin season with a 6-0 win over Marian Catholic in an East Suburban Catholic Conference match at Marian Central.

Kaitlin Fortin, Addison Fortin, Skyler Teegan and Erika Dacanay scored for the Hurricanes (8-5-2, 3-2-1). Goalkeeper Kersten Green was rarely tested but finished with five saves.

“We took control of the game early,” Hurricanes coach Karl Smith said.

“We’ve been struggling to score goals, we’re able to stay in games, but a lot of these tough games we’ve been in we’re usually equal in opportunities but we’re not finishing. So this was good for us to kind of see the goal a little bit more, get a few more opportunities than we usually get and finish some off.

“When you get into playoff games, you might have three or four good chances and then those have got to count. So for us it’s good to have some repetition in terms of getting some goals scored and things like that.”

The Hurricanes controlled possession for almost the entire match.

It took 20 minutes for them to find the opening goal, however, and it came from one of the rare moments defending

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE

With about 20 minutes left, Hurricanes coach Karl Smith quietly subbed a player off the field without the referees noticing and had his team play the rest of the match down a player. deep in their own half.

The Hurricanes sprang a quick counter down the right side, and Laura Knapp cut a pass through the Marian Catholic defense, putting Kailin Fortin in one-on-one with the goalkeeper. She made no mistake with the finish to put the Hurricanes up, 1-0, and from that point there was no looking back.

Five minutes later, Addison Fortin made it 2-0, curling a 25-yard shot over the head of the Marian Catholic keeper.

Teegan added to the lead two minutes later.

Then, in the final minute of the first half, Addison Fortin crossed to Dacanay for a header at the back post to make it 4-0 at the break.

“I think definitely once we score it moves the game a little faster, “ Addison Fortin said. “We’ve always had difficultly scoring with the first couple minutes, but once we do. ...”

Dacanay added a second in the 45th minute and then Addison Fortin got her second in the 55th minute to make it 6-0.

The Hurricanes were more deliberate with the ball in the second half, taking their time to work it around the field and connect passes with their defenders and goalkeeper.

The six-goal win came three days after the Hurricanes had conceded six in a conference loss to Benet on Wednesday.

“That loss was a wake-up call for us, I think,” Smith said.

Saturday’s win also sends the Hurricanes into this week’s Class 1A regionals on a high.

“It’s definitely (good for confidence), from losing, 6-1, to winning, 6-0, it’s a boost of confidence,” Addison Fortin said.

q THE NUMBER

All three Hurricanes outfielders – Ryan Klinger, Miller and Maddie Peters – made a diving catch with runners in scoring position.

• Sunday, May 8, 2016

WOODSTOCK – If there was one takeaway from Saturday’s doubleheader for the Marian Central softball team, it’s that when the offense is struggling to score runs, the Hurricanes can rely on their defense to save some.

“Our defense is really key because a lot of the teams we’ve faced have these major pitchers that are throwing like 65 (mph),” Hurricanes center fielder Emily Miller said. “We don’t have that, so we pick that up with our defense.”

Miller was one of four Hurricanes who made run-saving plays in the field over the two games of Saturday’s doubleheader, but the Hurricanes dropped both East Suburban Catholic Conference games against Nazareth at Marian Central, 6-3 and 6-0.

“Kind of a moral victory for us because we knew they were the (Class) 3A sectional champs last year,” Hurricanes coach Erin Widmayer said.

“We knew this was going to be a tough one, so the first game, 3-6, was kind of a moral victory.”

In the field, with the bases loaded, down 4-0 in the top of the fourth inning of Game 1, Hurricanes shortstop Jackie Chmiel sprawled out to her right, snagged a sharp ground ball and fired it to first to end the threat.

An inning later, right fielder Ryan Klinger prevented another Roadrunners run on a diving catch.

“It was good to make the key plays,” Chmiel said. “When you have teammates who are down, it helps you pick them up. It also helps your pitchers.”

Chmiel (2 for 6 on the day) also knocked in the home team’s first run on an RBI double off Roadrunners starter Cat Klostermann, who struck out 11 over seven innings. Klinger and Miller both scored on a throwing error to cut the deficit to three.

The Hurricanes (9-6, 3-3 ESCC) had more offensive chances in Game 2 but

Miller went 3 for 5 on the day with three singles, while Maggie Finnegan was 3 for 8 with three hits. In the two games, Grace Shukis threw a combined eight innings, allowing six runs on eight hits, while striking out six.

“Our bats started waking up in the sixth, seventh (innings) of the first game,” Miller said. “We tried pushing [the momentum] into the second game, and sometimes it doesn’t work the way you want it to.”

Coming into the games, the Roadrunners (23-3) had outscored their opponents, 234-38. Widmayer knew it was going to be an uphill battle for her team.

“It’s hard,” Widmayer said. “First off, we’ve got a lot of freshmen, so they see these kinds of pitches, but they’re still not able to go with them.

[Klostermann] pitched a great (first) game. It was nice to come back and put a few runs up in the first game, not get completely shut out, like the second game.”

ago, so he was promoted to the varsity team, starting several games in right field on a regional title team.

“We knew right away, as a freshman, he belonged up there at the varsity level,” Murray said. “He plays on a high-level travel team with Elite.

We knew, as a staff, come junior and senior year, he would be able to do a lot of good things for us. It really starts defensively, having him in center field and being really smart out there. He’s

a nice piece to have at the top of the order. Any coach would want to have someone like that.”

When Addante visited Nebraska in February, he felt a kindred spirit with Erstad, who also hit lefty, played center field and had good speed with some power.

“He can only make me a better player,” Addante said. “Nebraska felt like a great place to be. It felt like home.

They have an outstanding program and

coaching staff and a great atmosphere to play in.”

Murray is happy he, and not Erstad, will be Addante’s coach for another season after this.

“I just love him. He’s very coachable; he listens – just a great kid,” Murray said. “Darin Erstad was a pro. That shows you how highly [Addante] is regarded. He’s an amazing kid, he’s in the National Honor Society, he’s a good student and a great teammate.”

NHL: HART TROPHY FINALISTS

Learning season for Hawks’ Kane

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com Blackhawks star Patrick Kane followed the worst offseason of his life with the best regular season of his career. His goal is to apply the lessons of both on and off the ice moving forward.

“I think it goes without saying that in today’s world, with the social media and everything you’re doing, you almost have to act like there’s a camera on you or someone’s watching you at all times, whether you like it or not,” said Kane, who was named one of three finalists for the Hart Trophy as the NHL’s most valuable player Saturday.

“I guess you kind of live and learn from those situations.”

In the last 10 months, all eyes were on Kane for two very different reasons.

Kane was accused of sexual assault by a woman in western New York in early August, and the ensuing investigation lasted three months – well into the hockey season – before the Erie County district attorney decided not to charge him, dismissing the accusation as a “so-called case” that was “rife with reasonable doubt.”

On the ice, Kane had the best season of his career, making him a heavy favorite to become the first Hawks player to win the Hart Trophy since Stan Mikita won it for the second consecutive time in 1968 (Bobby Hull won the two before that). He’s also a finalist for the Ted Lindsay Award as the NHL’s

most outstanding player, which is voted on by the players.

Kane had 46 goals and 60 assists for 106 points, breaking all the career highs he had set in 2009-10 and becoming the first U.S.-born player to win the NHL scoring title. Finally given consistent linemates after running through 15 in the previous three seasons, Kane combined with rookie Artemi Panarin and center Artem Anisimov to form the NHL’s most potent trio.

“It was a great season overall, especially the regular season,” Kane said. “It was a lot of fun teaming up with Anisimov and Panarin, playing with those guys. Personally, I probably would have liked to have had a little more success in the playoffs. . . .

It would have been nice to play a little bit better, but overall it was a good season.”

Kane, who described hockey as his refuge from his off-ice troubles early in the season, had instant chemistry with Panarin, despite the language barrier.

“I’ve had a lot of fun playing this year,” Kane said. “Maybe throughout the regular season, more fun than any year.”

The Hart Trophy was voted on by members of the Professional Hockey Writers Association at the end of the regular season, so the Hawks’ firstround playoff exit won’t factor into the voting. The other two finalists are the Dallas Stars’ Jamie Benn and the Pittsburgh Penguins’ Sidney Crosby.

STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS ROUNDUP

Caps beat Pens to stay alive; Blues take 3-2 lead on Stars The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Alex Ovechkin scored a power-play goal and assisted on another, Braden Holtby made 30 saves, and the Washington Capitals beat the Pittsburgh Penguins, 3-1, Saturday night in Game 5 to stay alive in the second-round series.

Ovechkin was a force all over the ice with the Capitals on the brink of elimination and yet another early playoff exit. His blast on the power play set the tone early, and his shot created the rebound for T.J Oshie’s power-play goal in the second period.

Veteran Justin Williams also scored to help Washington force Game 6 on Tuesday night in Pittsburgh.

The Penguins got a power-play goal of their own, their first of the series, from Chris Kunitz but couldn’t overcome the Capitals’ desperation and Holtby’s brilliance. Matt Murray allowed three goals on 19 shots, looking like a rookie for the first time in the playoffs.

Blues 4, Stars 1: At Dallas, rookie playoff points leader Robby Fabbri had a goal and assist, Brian Elliott turned away a strong Dallas push in the third period, and St. Louis beat the Stars to take a 3-2 lead in the second-round series.

Dmitrij Jaskin’s first career playoff goal put the Blues ahead for good at 2-1 in the second period, and St. Louis protected a 3-1 lead in the third for a second straight road victory.

The Blues surrendered the same lead before winning in overtime in Game 2 in Dallas.

Elliott had 27 saves to give the Blues a chance to wrap up the series at home Monday night.

Troy Brouwer and Paul Stastny also scored for the Blues.

Alex Goligoski scored for Dallas.

The game was stopped early in the third period because of blood on the ice in front of the Dallas bench, and yet there wasn’t a penalty until a few seconds after that when St. Louis’ David Backes was sent off for holding.

The Blackhawks’ Patrick Kane is one of three finalists for the Hart Trophy, given the NHL’s most valuable player.

PORTLAND, Ore. – Damian Lillard had a playoff-best 40 points and the Portland Trail Blazers avoided a fourth-quarter letdown to beat Golden State, 120-108, Saturday night, cutting the Warriors’ advantage in the Western Conference semifinal to 2-1.

The defending NBA champion Warriors were still without reigning MVP Steph Curry, who sprained his right knee in Game 4 of the team’s firstround series against Houston.

Al-Farouq Aminu had 23 points and 10 rebounds, and CJ McCollum added 22 points for Portland. The Trail Blazers led, 58-46, at the half and stretched the lead to as many as 20 points in the fourth quarter.

Draymond Green had 37 points, and Klay Thompson added 35 for the Warriors, They had won four straight against the Blazers.

Game 4 is Monday night in Portland.

Raptors 95, Heat 91: At Miami, Kyle Lowry scored 33 points on 11-for-19 shooting to snap out of a postseason funk and Toronto beat Miami in Game 3 to seize back the home-court edge in the Eastern Conference semifinal series.

DeMar DeRozan scored 19 points, and Jonas Valanciunas finished with 16 points and 12 rebounds in just 22 minutes to help the Raptors take a 2-1 series lead.

Both teams lost their starting centers – Miami’s Hassan Whiteside with a knee issue of still-unclear severity in the second quarter and Toronto’s Valanciunas with a sprained ankle in the third quarter.

Dwyane Wade had 29 of his 38 points after halftime and had eight rebounds for Miami. Goran Dragic scored 12 points, and Joe Johnson had 10.

Game 4 is Monday night in Miami.

The teams split overtime games in Toronto.

10 WHITE SOX 7, TWINS 2

Angry Sale shakes off wild spell

By JEFF ARNOLD WHITE SOX 7, TWINS 2

For the Sun-Times CHICAGO – Chris Sale wasn’t even through his first inning of work when his anger began to get the best of him.

After a very Sale-like dismissal of the first two Minnesota Twins hitters he faced Saturday night, the White Sox’s ace surrendered a single. Then he gave up a double. He then proceeded to hit the next batter he faced before yielding a bases-loaded walk.

Sale demonstratively walked off the mound, visibly upset at the trouble he had pitched himself into. He then hit yet another batter, which only intensified Sale’s already foul mood.

At that point, Sale took the baseball and pounded it onto the side of his head.

For a pitcher who is intent on throwing less angry pitches, it didn’t take long for the emotionally charged Sale to reemerge.

“When I get mad, I feel the need to hurt myself – I don’t know why,” Sale said after the White Sox’s 7-2 win over the Minnesota Twins at U.S. Cellular Field. “That’s something I’ve got to get over. That’s the immaturity part coming out, and that’s when the overthrowing happens, and that’s when I dug myself a hole.

“I’ve just got to quit being an idiot out there.”

Turns out, a bit of self-directed annoyance proved to be all Sale needed to become the majors’ first seven-game winner by striking out nine – eight of which came after his furious start.

White Sox starter Chris Sale pitches in the first inning against the Minnesota Twins on Saturday at U.S. Cellular Field.

Yet, even when Sale wasn’t at the top of his game, his teammates had his back, piling up seven runs and 13 hits. Third baseman Todd Frazier, who started the night 0 for May, ended the slump with a home run and an RBI double as the Sox’s offense quickly erased the memory of a first inning Sale would rather forget.

And just like that, the Sox – who continue to boast the American League’s best record – kept rolling on a night when Sale – in his own words – was just

along for the ride.

His frustrating first aside, Sale quickly righted the ship against the hapless Twins. He finished the night by allowing only the two first-inning runs while limiting the Twins to three hits over seven innings. Even after the labor-intensive first inning when Sale threw 36 pitches and dug himself and the Sox into an early hole, he managed to remain perfect following a start that was anything but against a team that has historically been

a tough out for Sale.

“I think he was overthrowing it,” manager Robin Ventura said. “But I think he finally got into a groove and we were able to score some runs for him.

But I think that’s the first time I’ve seen him overthrow like that.”

Of the season-high 120 pitches he threw in his latest victory, 74 went for strikes, giving up only the one walk in the first inning.

Sox: Abreu’s apology wasn’t necessary

By JEFF ARNOLD For The Sun-Times CHICAGO – A day after being drilled by a 97 mph fastball and setting off a benches-clearing brouhaha in a 10-4 White Sox victory over the Minnesota Twins on Friday night, Jose Abreu explained why he apologized for his role in the incident.

After being hit, Abreu began to move toward Twins reliever Trevor May, which led to both dugouts and bullpens emptying before order was AP photo restored. Sox manager Robin Ventura The White Sox’s Jose Abreu reacts after was ejected, claiming Abreu being hit being hit by a pitch from Minnesota Twins came in retaliation after Sox pitcher reliever Trevor May during the ninth inning Nate Jones hit Minnesota’s Byung Ho Friday at U.S. Cellular Field.

Park an inning earlier.

Abreu apologized after the game, which Ventura said Saturday wasn’t necessary.

“Believe me, nobody’s lost respect for him,” Ventura said. “He’s a great teammate and he’s passionate about it, so he was fine.”

Asked why he apologized, Abreu said he did so because of the impression his actions may have left with fans.

“What I did probably didn’t look too good,” Abreu said through a team interpreter. “It didn’t look like I had respect for the game. That’s why I apologized. Not because I did something bad. It’s just because in the eyes of the people who saw the game and all the kids, it wasn’t the best reaction.”

After Friday’s game, Abreu said Ventura’s reaction showed what kind of family atmosphere the Sox have created around the clubhouse.

Like Ventura, Abreu’s teammates didn’t feel Abreu had to apologize.

Second baseman Brett Lawrie said Saturday that May hitting Abreu was intentional and so when Abreu was hit, Lawrie said there wasn’t a second thought about Sox players coming onto the field.

“This is definitely a team here, and we back each other up no matter what,” Lawrie said. “… What happened, happened and for the umpires not to do anything about that was obviously against our team, so we backed our guy. We’re family here.”

CUBS 8, NATIONALS 5

2-run double key hit in 6th straight victory

By SARAH TROTTO The Associated Press

• Sunday, May 8, 2016

CHICAGO – Addison Russell is enjoying his high-pressure situations at the plate.

Russell dropped in a tiebreaking, tworun double in the seventh inning, and the Cubs beat the Washington Nationals, 8-5, Saturday for their sixth straight victory.

Russell is now 10-for-32 (.313) with 16 RBIs with runners in scoring position this season.

“It’s fun,” Russell said. “Just try to slow the game down, just try to do your best to perform out there and just try to have some fun with it.”

And Russell said he benefited from having the previous day off. The shortstop had the chance to visit with family and chatted with teammates.

“It was nice to gather my thoughts,” said Russell, who is hitting .237.

Kris Bryant homered and Ben Zobrist had an RBI for the sixth game in a row as the Cubs took the matchup of NL division leaders.

The Cubs have won 10 of 11 and improved the best record in the majors to 23-6. The Nationals have the league’s second-best record but have lost three straight.

Russell finished with three RBIs. It was 5-all when the Cubs loaded the bases with two outs, and Russell hit a flyball to right that landed barely fair as outfielder Bryce Harper ran toward the brick wall in pursuit. A review confirmed the ball was fair.

“I got as close as I could, put my glove out, it nicked off it and things happened,” Harper said. “I’m not going to run into a wall and not play for another year and not feel healthy.”

Zobrist singled home a run in the eighth. He has 15 RBIs in his last six games.

Adam Warren (3-0) pitched a scoreless inning for the win. Hector Rondon earned his sixth save in as many chances.

Sammy Solis (0-1) allowed two runs in the seventh.

Ryan Zimmerman beat out a potential inning-ending double play throw to first to drive in the tying run in the sev-

The Cubs scored three times in the sixth for a 5-4 lead. Pinch hitter Ryan Kalish hit a two-run, bases-loaded single after Russell’s RBI single.

Bryant hit his fifth homer of the season, connecting in the fourth off Gio Gonzalez.

“Everybody participated,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. “I love when everybody takes a piece of the ownership. It really matters within the clubhouse.”

Harper had a sacrifice fly in the third off Jason Hammel.

Hammel allowed a season-high three runs and matched a season high of four walks in five innings.

“It was one of those seesaw games.

We really haven’t had many of those this year,” Hammel said. “We’ve been kind of blowing people out, but today it was never quit. Obviously, I wasn’t at my best today. It all gets back to fastball command.”

Gonzalez gave up five runs and seven hits – both season highs – in 52/3 innings.

He entered the game with a 1.15 ERA, second in the NL.

of fair territory near the Wrigley Field foul poles. He hardly was sore after Harper was unable to make the catch on Russell’s go-ahead double.

“Nothing outside of running into that wall and hurting himself,” Baker said when asked what more the outfielder could’ve done. “That ball blew 20 feet.”

TRAINER’S ROOM Nationals: Second baseman Daniel

Murphy and third baseman Anthony Rendon were “under the weather,” Baker said. Murphy, the NL’s top hitter (.406), was out of the starting lineup. Rendon batted sixth instead of his usual No. 2 spot. Baker said he couldn’t afford to rest both. Murphy pinch hit in the ninth. Stephen Drew started at second.

Cubs: Catcher Miguel Montero (lower back tightness) will increase his hitting Sunday, Maddon said. Maddon has no timetable for Montero’s return, but he said the catcher is doing better. Montero went on the disabled list April 25.

UP NEXT

Right-hander Tanner Roark (2-2, 2.35 ERA) will start for the Nationals in their series finale Sunday against the Cubs.

Right-hander Jake Arrieta (6-0, 0.84) has BIG RISK recorded 17 consecutive victories for the Baker, who managed the Cubs for longest streak by a Cubs starter in franfour seasons, knows a lot about the lack chise history.

Fowler shoots to top in Wells Fargo with 68 The ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Rickie Fowler shot a 4-under-par 68 on Saturday to take the third-round lead in the Wells Fargo Championship.

Fowler, the 2012 winner for his first PGA Tour victory, birdied Nos. 14-17 and closed with two pars to reach 9-under 207. Roberto Castro was a stroke back, and Justin Rose and James Hahn were 7 under. Castro had a 71, Hahn shot 68, and Rose 69.

Phil Mickelson and defending champion Rory McIlroy struggled, dropping eight shots behind Fowler.

Mickelson, looking for his first win at the Quail Hollow Club in 13 starts, was in contention until a quadruple-bogey 8 on his old nemesis, the 18th hole. He finished with a 76.

McIlroy, the tournament’s only twotime winner, had two bogeys in the first four holes and shot 73.

She has flirted with wins before but had two final-round collapses. Last month in the ANA Inspiration, she had a two-stroke lead with three holes left and closed with three bogeys to finish fourth – two strokes behind winner Lydia Ko in the major championship. In the 2013 LPGA Thailand at age 17, Jutanugarn blew a two-stroke lead with a closing triple bogey in a one-stroke loss to Inbee Park.

Injured vets represent countries in Orlando

By TERRANCE HARRIS The Associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. – After suffering a noncombat injury during a motorcycle accident in 2014, Gabby Graves-Wake found herself at a crossroads during her recovery and rehabilitation.

The Marine, who suffered injuries to her legs, lower back and head, either could have been filled with self-pity or found the inspiration to push through during the recovery. She chose the more challenging path, joining up with the Wounded Warrior Regiment and Military Adaptive Sports Program to use sports as part of her rehabilitation.

Graves-Wake will be among 500 participants in this week’s Invictus Games, an international Paralympic-style multisport event, at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. She will participate in wheelchair track, seated shot put and discus and cycling.

“I do this because it means I have no excuse to sit down and say, ‘I feel sor-

ry for myself. I can’t come back from an injury,’” said Graves-Wake, 22. “What this means to me is that I’m better than my injury, I’m better than I was before and I will continue to thrive, go on new adventures and experience new things and meet new people and have the time of my life.”

The Invictus Games, a creation of Great Britain’s Prince Harry, gives wounded and sick military personnel and veterans a chance to compete. Athletes from 15 countries will compete in 14 sports starting Monday and lasting until Thursday. The Opening Ceremony kicks off the games Sunday evening with Prince Harry and first lady Michelle Obama taking part.

“This is going to be something very special because there has never really been outside of the Invictus Games an international competition for injured veterans,” said Ken Fisher, the event’s chairman and CEO. “They have been using the power of sport to aid in their rehabilitation.”

Mario Gutierrez rides Nyquist to victory during the 142nd running of the Kentucky Derby on Saturday at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky. out of there and he sat behind Danzing Candy. This horse, he’s really something. We’re just really lucky to be a part of that.”

Nyquist stayed just off the lead and Gutierrez kept him in the clear, steering him to the outside on the final turn.

Nyquist and Gun Runner overtook tiring leader Danzing Candy at the top of the stretch.

“I thought I had it for a minute,” said Florent Geroux, aboard Gun Runner. “He started pricking his ears back and forth at the top of the stretch.”

But Gun Runner was only in front

briefly before Nyquist showed a strong finishing kick. He put away his closest rival and sped to the finish line, with Exaggerator closing but never threatening after coming from well back.

Exaggerator fell to 0-4 against Nyquist, including two runner-up finishes under the brother team of trainer Keith and jockey Kent Desormeaux.

“What a horse,” marveled Keith Desormeaux. “I can’t respect that horse enough.”

All week long, optimism had filled the air in O’Neill’s barn. The humans took their cues from the horse. Nyquist

settled right in, showing an obvious liking for his surroundings.

“You just felt there was no way you could be nervous because you just felt like you were going in the gym with Kobe Bryant,” O’Neill said. “You just knew he was going to figure out a way to pull it out at the end, and he did. Mario gets a lot of credit, too. What a ride, what a ride.”

Nyquist began Derby day with a visit from the Stanley Cup, which he playfully took a nibble at.

Fitting, since he’s named for Detroit Red Wings player Gustav Nyquist.

Reddam is a fan of the NHL team and O’Neill was born in Michigan.

The bay colt is from the first crop of sire Uncle Mo, who never got the chance to run in the Derby after being the early favorite for the 2011 race.

He was scratched the day before with a stomach illness. Uncle Mo had two other offspring in this year’s race: Mo Tom and Outwork.

“Congratulations to Nyquist, he’s still undefeated,” said Kiaran McLaughlin, who trains Mohaymen.

“He’s a star. I don’t know about the Triple Crown, but we’ll have a great year.”

Exaggerator returned $5.40 and $4.20, while Gun Runner was another 3¼ lengths back in third and paid $6 to show.

Mohaymen finished fourth and Suddenbreakingnews was fifth.

Confident jockey Gutierrez 2 for 2 in Kentucky Derby

By GARY B. GRAVES The Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Mario Gutierrez is perfect in two Kentucky Derby rides.

The time in between those races was far from it.

Four years after riding I’ll Have Another to victory in the Run For The Roses, Gutierrez earned another Derby triumph by riding favorite Nyquist to a 11/4-length victory. Gutierrez’s next step is winning a second Preakness in only his second try, two weeks from now in Baltimore. For the moment he’s basking in this Derby win.

“One race at a time,” said Gutierrez.

Nyquist challenged throughout the 11/4-mile race before Gutierrez seized his opportunity at the top of the stretch.

The colt turned up the speed for a decisive win sure to spark discussion over whether Nyquist can follow American Pharoah as a Triple Crown champion.

Gutierrez, meanwhile, no longer has to question his value as a jockey.

His career leveled off after he rode I’ll Have Another to wins in the 2012 Derby and Preakness before the colt was withdrawn from the Belmont Stakes with a career-ending tendon injury the day before the race. That stunning development extended the Triple Crown drought that American Pharoah

ended last spring after 37 years.

Although Gutierrez won stakes races, his most notable win was aboard Bond Holder in the Grade 1 FrontRunner at Santa Anita. His slump reached the point that his wife, Rebecca, urged him to see a sports psychologist to find a solution for his struggles.

Marriage, counseling and a certain horse have clearly provided answers and happiness for Gutierrez.

“I’m doing things I wasn’t doing four years ago,” said Gutierrez, who’s expecting a child with Rebecca. “So, that makes me have a lot of confidence.

I know that my surroundings always believe in me, so you get extra confi-

dence.

“I believe I got the right people behind me, so they always give me confidence,” he added.

Gutierrez has shown it with Nyquist, who’s a perfect 8-0 – all with him aboard. Their chemistry was evident in last fall’s Breeders’ Cup Juvenile and last month’s Florida Derby that established the colt as the Derby favorite.

The relationship came full circle at Churchill Downs with a run that didn’t shock trainer Doug O’Neill.

“He’s got ice in his veins,” he said of the jockey. “He’s the one you want on the free-throw line at the end of the game.”

• Sunday, May 8, 2016

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The racing world wondered whether there was a worthy successor to last year’s Triple Crown champion American Pharoah.

Enter Nyquist.

The bay colt who lacks any distinctive markings won the Kentucky Derby by 1¼ lengths Saturday, improving to 8-0 in his career as the fourth consecutive favorite to win the race.

Ridden by Mario Gutierrez, Nyquist ran 1¼ miles in 2:01.31. The 3-year-old colt became the eighth unbeaten winner in the race’s 142-year history, and the first since Big Brown in 2008. He paid $6.60, $4.80 and $3.60 as the 2-1 favorite in the full field of 20 horses.

“We got a beautiful trip from the start to the end,” Gutierrez said.

Nyquist delivered a second Derby win for Gutierrez, trainer Doug O’Neill and owner J. Paul Reddam. The Southern California-based team was behind 2012 Derby and Preakness winner I’ll Have Another.

“This is such a special horse,” O’Neill said. “You can see it in his eye on a daily basis and he’s such a professional. Any human sport, he’d be the top-notch athlete. He’s just first class.”

Nyquist enjoyed a perfect trip over the Churchill Downs dirt in front of 167,227, the second-largest crowd in Derby history. The colt broke well out of the 13th post and showed some early speed getting away from the gate. Gutierrez eased Nyquist back to let speedster Danzing Candy take the lead going into the chaotic first turn.

“His run was awesome,” Reddam said. “Obviously, we were going to take it to ’em. I love the way that we fired

Army star Minato shoots for WNBA West Point’s record-setting guard receives tryout with San Antonio

By DOUG FEINBERG The Associated Press

UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Kelsey Minato dreamed of playing in the WNBA growing up but wasn’t sure that would ever become a reality.

Minato enrolled at West Point four years ago and has a military service requirement after graduation. Yet she recently finished the most decorated career in women’s basketball history at the school, and now, she just might get that chance.

The guard was invited by the San Antonio Stars to training camp by coach Dan Hughes. She already survived the team’s first round of cuts but knows it’s a long shot she’ll make the roster when the season opens on May 14.

“It’s been a great experience,” she said Wednesday before the Stars played in an exhibition tournament in Connecticut. “A chance to see what the WNBA is all about. Whatever happens, happens. I’m just so grateful for the opportunity they gave me.”

Hughes first heard of Minato from Detroit Pistons general manager Jeff Bower, who was friends with her coach at Army. Other college coaches also had recommended that the Stars coach take a look at the guard.

As soon as Minato wasn’t drafted, Hughes picked up the phone and invited her to join the Stars in camp.

“She deserved to have an opportunity. What goes beyond that, that’s life,” Hughes said. “My son’s going to the Air Force Academy next year.

I appreciated what she had done.

When you look at what she accomplished, when you throw her name in with David Robinson. This girl deserved a chance to get on the court.”

Robinson, who graduated from Navy, starred in the NBA for the San Antonio Spurs and led them to two titles.

“To be mentioned in the same conversation as him is special,” Minato said.

Like Robinson, Minato needed to get special permission to even try out for the Stars because of her service commitment.

“This really started coming to fruition this past winter,” she said.

“I didn’t get approval until about one

or two weeks before the draft. I got it and now just need to make the most of this opportunity. I had to write an exception of policy memo of what I wanted to do and how that would work. That got passed up the chain to the Department of Defense.”

Minato is on an unpaid leave of absence from West Point while she’s with the Stars. And the Army has said she will be allowed to play in the WNBA if she makes a team but can’t pursue other playing options overseas. She has final exams next week and graduation on May 21.

She’s been keeping in touch with her professors at West Point while she’s been in Texas.

“It’s an incredible opportunity,” Army coach Dave Magarity said.

“It’s such a positive thing for her, for the academy, for our program, for the Army. To have a young lady who’s so accomplished where she has a chance to play at the highest level speaks volumes of who she is and what she’s been able to accomplish.”

Minato isn’t the first player from Army to have a chance to play in the WNBA. Katie MacFarlane, whose scoring record Minato broke this year, was invited to Connecticut’s training camp in 2004. She played in one exhibition game for the Sun before getting cut.

Minato, who is from Huntington Beach, California, averaged 23.2 points her senior season for Army (29-3) and was second in 3-point percentage in the nation (.478). In her sophomore season, she scored a Patriot League-record 49 points in a game and made an NCAA single-game record 26-of-26 free throws.

The honorable mention AP All-American played in two games this week for the Stars. She saw her first action in the second half of the opener against Atlanta on Wednesday, playing four minutes.

She played for 6 minutes on Thursday against Connecticut. She didn’t attempt a shot in either game.

“Just to see her on the court and having a chance is something really inspiring,” Connecticut Sun forward Chiney Ogwumike said. “There are a lot bigger things out there than basketball and knowing that she’s serving our country when this is done is amazing.”

16 NASCAR SPRINT CUP: KANSAS

Kyle Busch finally wins at Kansas

By DAVE SKRETTA The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Kan. – Kyle Busch has seemingly dozens of reasons to despise Kansas Speedway, from the two times he crashed out of Chase races to the innumerable misfortunes in other series.

Now he has one big reason to speak fondly of it.

Busch sailed away from Kevin Harvick after a late wreck collected several of the leaders Saturday night, and finally won a NASCAR Sprint Cup race at one of three tracks that had eluded him.

“I didn’t know we’d have that much speed in our race car. I guess I should have known,” said Busch, who still needs to win at Charlotte and Pocono to knock off every current track in the series. “We had a top-five car in the middle part of the race. We kept making improvements to it, kept making AP photo it better.”

Kyle Busch celebrates after winning a NABusch won for the third time this SCAR Sprint Cup race Saturday night at season, and gave team owner Joe Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kan. Gibbs his sixth victory already this

season. But this one may have been the sweetest given Busch’s history at Kansas.

“This is a place that’s been tough on me over the years, and probably almost caused me to go into retirement,” Busch said, laughing. “There’s been a lot of rough days at Kansas, that’s for sure.”

Harvick was second after making major changes to his car after a poor qualifying effort. Kurt Busch was third, Matt Kenseth finished fourth and Ryan Blaney wound up fifth.

“You know, it’s our best finish of the year. That’s the bright side,” said Kenseth, who was alongside Busch on the final restart with 19 laps to go. “I thought we were as good as the 18 if we could have had position, but it was tough restarting on that bottom.”

Martin Truex Jr. won his first pole in two years and looked like he’d be the one to finally get the victory that has eluded him at Kansas, drawing away for big leads on every restart.

He still had a comfortable lead entering the final round of scheduled stops with 54 laps to go, but Truex ra-

dioed to his team that he had a loose wheel after leaving his stall. He had to come down pit road again and dropped off the lead lap, another late-race gaffe costing him a chance to win.

Truex led 95 laps at Kansas last spring, but fuel and tire strategy left him ninth. His team also made a strategic mistake that cost him earlier this season at Texas.

“I couldn’t believe it,” he said.

“Went around 1 and 2 and was like, ‘... The wheel is loose.’ I kept telling myself maybe it’s not. ... Frustrating but that’s how it goes.”

Tony Stewart briefly took the lead in his return to the No. 14 full-time, but everything changed when Ricky Stenhouse Jr. slapped the wall moments later. That bunched up the field and ultimately led to the only major wreck after last weekend’s crash-filled race at Talladega.

Brad Keselowski and Denny Hamlin got sideways going through a corner, and that forced Kyle Larson into the wall. Joey Logano had nowhere to go, slamming into Hamlin and ending both of their nights.

The Invisible-In-Canal (IIC) is virtually undetectable!

As shown in this image.

Heard & Not Seen

This hearing aid does for your ears what a contact lens does for your eyes: improves your hearing without anyone knowing it’s there.

Breaking News

Introducing ing a hearing aid that is Swiss engineered, US made and so small it can be custom formed to fit right next to the eardrum. It sits so deep in the canal that it begins where other hearing hearin aids end. That makes it virtually undetectable to anyone else.

Packs a Punch Pack

De Despite its miniature size, the processor inside the “Invisible-In-Canal” hearing aid is so powerful it “I supports the most sophisticated advances in digital su hearing technology to date. The microprocessor is so he fast, fa that it samples the listening environment 20,000 times time per second and makes automatic adjustments to the sound it delivers to your ear. It is designed to identify non-speech noise and the steady hum of background conversations then reduces those sounds while amplifying the speech directly around you, making conversations much clearer.

Are You Missing Too Much?

You’ve worked hard all your life. It’s time to be reapingg some of that reward.

Don’t let your hearing loss rob you of the things you enjoyy most in life: the relationships with your friends and family. You can get help now without suffering the stigma of yesterday’s hearing aids.

AccuQuest Hearing Centers

are offering complimentary hearing health consultations to determine whether you are a candidate to wear the Invisible-In- Canal hearing aids. We invite you to call today for an appointment. Your visit will include a hearing screening (with a video otoscopy), personalized consultation and demonstration of what we feel are the best hearing technologies anywhere.

No Whistling, Buzzing or Plugged-up Feeling

It also supports the undisputed world-leading feedback cancellation technology.

This means the annoying whistling and buzzing your that uncle’s old hearing aids used to make is a thing of the past. In addition, the positioning of the hearing aid beyond the second bend in the ear canal is meant to work with the ear’s natural acoustics to deliver more precise and natural sound—and resolve that plugged-up or head-in-a-barrel sensation (a complaint of many hearing aid wearers).

New Johns Hopkins study shows hearing loss more prevalent and linked to dementia

Josh Asbill, H.I.D.

Hearing Instrument Dispenser License #3196

Have you ever avoided a social gathering because you were afraid of feeling lost in the conversation?

Have you felt exhausted after straining to hear in a difficult listening situation, and kept away from people for a while afterward? If so, you may be experiencing the social isolation common to hearing loss and recently identified as a possible factor in the development of dementia.

“Researchers have looked at what affects hearing loss, but few have looked at how hearing loss affects cognitive brain function,” says study leader Frank Lin, M.D., Ph.D., assistant professor in the Division of Otology at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

Lin and his team used studied over 600 volunteers whose hearing and cognitive abilities were tested as part of a long-term multidimensional study called the Baltimore Longitudinal Study on Aging (BLSA) established in 1958. About a quarter of the volunteers had hearing loss at the start of the study, but none of them had dementia.

Participants were closely followed with repeat exams every year or two for nearly 20 years.

Researchers found that those who had hearing loss at the beginning of the study were significantly more likely to develop dementia by the end. Of those participants who started with hearing loss, 36% developed dementia over the course of the study.

“Compared to individuals with normal hearing, those individuals with a mild, moderate, and severe hearing loss, respectively, had a respective 2, 3 and 5 fold increased risk of developing dementia over the course of the study,” reports Dr. Lin. In a separate study, Johns Hopkins reported that the hearing loss rate in older adults has climbed to more than 60 percent in a national survey.

“A lot of people ignore hearing loss because it’s such a slow and insidious process as we age,” Lin says. “Even if people feel as if they are not affected, we’re showing that it may well be a more serious problem.”

Further research is needed to determine the exact reasons why dementia and hearing loss are connected. However, one possibility proposed in the study is that dementia may result in part from the social isolation inherent in hearing loss, which is a known risk factor for this and other cognitive disorders.

I don’t mean to scare you, but this study scared me.

At the very least, it confirms the need to maintain your hearing health. Hearing loss can happen so gradually it is hard to detect on your own. Regular hearing checks can help you identify loss early, and early is the key. If caught in time, intervention—like hearing aids—may help to delay or even prevent cognitive difficulties.

Perhaps more to the point, hearing aids can help

A patient receives a complimentary video otoscopic inspection where he is able to see inside his own ear canal on a large screen monitor.

you hear and understand the conversations that matter most to you right now. Hearing aids have come a long way in the last few years. These modern devices are so discreet you won’t need to worry about what others might think. They’ll only know that you’re hearing and understanding better.

State of the art technology also allows hearing aids to do more than ever before. Advanced feedback cancelation and speech preservation features are designed to provide a more natural listening experience and better comprehension. Most models also come with multiple channels that you can program for specific listening environments. So, if you eat out a lot, you can program your hearing aids with settings that will help reduce the background noise and focus on conversations in front of you.

The bottom line is this: hearing aids can help to prevent hearing loss from robbing you of the things you value most—your connection to those you love.

Please take steps to make sure your hearing is in good health. Make an appointment with a qualified hearing professional today.

Finding an oil-and-water relationship I’ve never visited one of those dating websites you see advertised on TV, but I would guess they try to pair you with someone who thinks, talks and acts pretty much the same way you do. And they probably figure it out by asking some pretty basic questions: What is your religion, and how serious are you about it?

How likely are you to vote in the next election?

Would your perfect date be a night sitting in a smoky blues club or a day walking through a botanical garden?

The goal, I guess, is to try to find the perfect mirror version of yourself, in whatever gender floats your dating boat.

After all, you’ll never get oil and water to mix no matter how many times you huddle them together, right? They’re just too fire-and-ice with each other. Sort of like all the metaphors I tried to mix in this paragraph.

I remember a contrary girl named Gail I met in college almost 50 years ago. I met her through my cousin, who lived on the same floor in the dorm. We both liked to dance, so I called Gail on a Wednesday and asked her to go dancing with me that Friday night.

She turned me down, though my cousin hinted she would accept.

I tried again the next week. Same result. I was majoring in rejection.

She probably had good reasons, because – from a dating profile point of view – we were like oil and water. Different religions, different political parties, different ideas of what would constitute the perfect date.

Her father was a business executive; mine was a steel mill laborer.

Her best childhood vacations were spent in resorts and hotels, slathering her arms and legs with suntan lotion; my fondest memories were of sleeping in a tent in the woods, scanning my arms and legs for ticks.

But – get this – my cousin said that wasn’t the reason she turned me down.

Gail rejected my advances because I had asked if she wanted to go out “this Friday,” and she demanded at least a week’s

Olympic hopeful Alysia Montano poses with her daughter, Linnea Dori AP photo

advance time for a date request, just for the sake of propriety. She thought it disrespectful for a guy to assume a girl didn’t have a date for the upcoming weekend.

But this was the freewheeling ’60s! It was a time of “if it feels good, do it,” a philosophy I heartily embraced. Gail struck me as a bit stodgy and custom-bound, in a stuffy Victorian Miss Manners sort of way.

But, hey, she was still cute, possessing all the qualities so prized by a superficial young man. Besides, I had to respect a girl with the good sense to turn me down for a date.

And so, maybe just to irritate her, I called her back and said – in a voice dripping with sarcasm – “Would you like to go out with me on Friday, October 12, at 8 p.m., which would be nine days and three hours from now?”

She said, “I’d love to,” in a voice so pleasant and snarkproof it just irked me all the more.

On the dance floor, we moved together like a perfectly maintained Maserati, so we shared a lot of time in the Student Union ballroom on weekend nights when a band was playing.

But still, whenever the music fell silent and we had time to talk to each other, the differences echoed between us.

Oil and water – a dating-site red flag festooned with yellow caution tape and lit by flares, right?

We got married within a year and a half. To each other. I was 20. She was 19.

Our family and friends looked for a “baby bump.” There wasn’t one. It was just young love, sparked perhaps by the electrifying differences between us – which meant we were hopelessly doomed by dating-site standards.

We’re still married today, 47 years later.

As you might imagine, there have been some interesting conversations along the way, many of them ending with her proposing an “agree to disagree” truce.

Which I wouldn’t agree to.

Other head-buttings ended in compromise: She tolerated sitting in a smoky

blues club every now and then (especially if I was playing in it that night), and I walked beside her through countless fragrant gardens, dutifully snapping photos of flowers whose names I can never remember.

And sometimes those compromises became willing changes, for both of us.

After 10 years or so of canceling out each other’s votes in elections, I finally succeeded in convincing her which candidate was best. Conversely, she convinced me I should raise the toilet seat before each manly use, and then lower it to the “womanly ready position” when finished. (Guys, I’ll leave it to you to decide whether politics or potty-peace is more essential to a happy marriage.

But if you don’t already know the answer, have fun cleaning a bachelor’s bathroom by yourself.)

I don’t know if you could call it a perfect marriage, because there is no such thing. But after almost a half-century of being together, neither of us can imagine spending our lives with any other partner. Seeking out a mirror-double to share your life would just be so … predictable.

And boring.

More than that, I don’t see how either of us could have survived being paired with a mirror-image of ourselves. A household with two of me in it would be a disaster. I don’t think a home with two of her in it would do much better. We each brought something to the banquet the other didn’t have the recipe for.

Fortunately, we didn’t find each other through a dating website – which might have been impossible, when you consider the contrary answers we would have given to all of their questions. They probably would have said, “Sorry, you’re just too oil-and-water to get very far together.”

But try driving your Maserati without plenty of both oil and water in it, and you won’t make it out of the parking lot.

Think about these planet-friendly ideas for Mother’s Day gifts that will please both your mom and Mother Earth.

One good idea is organic and/ or fairtrade chocolates and wines.

Or maybe a year of locally raised

fruits and veggies from your local community-supported agriculture farm. Better yet, make your mom a member.

Then there’s always the gift of time. Skip the stuff and give your mom a break by volunteering to run errands, prepare a healthy dinner

or tend the garden. To complement whatever gift you choose, make a card out of what you have on hand – old magazines, photos or calendars.

Or you could go with a card made of plantable seed paper. Bury the card, and when the paper biodegrades, the seeds grow into wildflowers.

Whatever your gift, remember to add your own spoken message that expresses how much your mom means to you. Happy Mother’s Day to all the special women who care for us and our world.

T

raining for the Olympics is hard work, but doing it while getting into shape after giving birth, then juggling little kids, is good as gold. In the lead-up to the Rio

de Janeiro Games starting Aug. 5 – and Sept. 7 for the Paralympics – we asked three Team USA hopefuls who also happen to be moms how they’re doing it all:

Melissa Stockwell

She was the first female soldier in U.S. history to lose a limb in active combat. Just three weeks after deploying to Baghdad in 2004, a blast from a roadside bomb struck her Humvee, leaving her without her left leg above the knee.

Since, Stockwell has triumphed as a competitive athlete and motivational speaker. She first went to the Paralympics in 2008, competing in three swimming events and carrying the American flag during the closing ceremony. After Beijing, she turned to the paratriathlon, “Everything a combination of swimming, I do, I do for cycling and him. Every time running, and is a three-time I’m training or world chamdoing anything, pion. She’ll compete again he’s always in Rio after the sport was the first one recognized as I’m thinking a Paralympic event for the about.” first time.

Stockwell, Melissa 36, calls her 14-month-old Stockwell son, Dallas On her son, Dallas, 1 Patrick, among her greatest accomplishments.

“Everything I do, I do for him,” she said. “Every time I’m training or doing anything he’s always the first one I’m thinking about.”

Getting back into shape after giving birth in November 2014 wasn’t easy, nor was her pregnancy. Her leg swelled while pregnant, and she wasn’t able to wear the special prosthetic she uses to run and bike.

“I ended up having a C-section.

Training was very slow at the start.

I wondered if I’d ever get to be as

AP file photo

Melissa Stockwell of Chicago sits on a starting block during a U.S. Team training session for the 2008 Beijing Paralympic Games at the National Aquatics Center, known as the Water Cube, in Beijing in 2008. Stockwell again will compete in the Games Sept.

7 in Rio de Janeiro, but this time as a mom to 1-year-old Dallas. “It was almost harder to get back into competitive shape after having my son than it was to learn to walk after I lost my leg,” she said. fast as I was,” Stockwell said from Chicago, where she lives with Dallas and husband Brian Tolsma. “It was almost harder to get back into competitive shape after having my son than it was to learn to walk after I lost my leg.”

Gearing up for Rio has meant time away from the family, including a trip to Australia just three months after Dallas was born.

“It’s a lot of time away from him, a lot of sacrifice that my husband and son make,” Stockwell said. “I just really want it to all pay off in the end.”

Candace Parker

She has two Olympic gold medals already as a member of the U.S. women’s basketball team. And unbeknown to this 2008 WNBA top draft pick – she plays for the Los Angeles Sparks – Parker competed in Beijing while pregnant.

Her pregnancy was a breeze, she said from Los Angeles, and her 6-year-old, Lailaa Nicole Williams, is a world-class traveler. Lailaa joined Mom at the London Games and watched as she helped Team USA to her second gold medal.

“When I was 23 I had her. I had

just finished my first year in the WNBA, and I trained from the very moment I found out I was pregnant up until two days before I delivered her,” said Parker, now 29.

“Then I started working out two weeks after I had her, so I was psycho, trying to get back on the court,” she laughed. “I was young and dumb. She was a super easy pregnancy.

And, yes, she’ll have a flower in her hair and high hopes of not only winning but showing her child the way.

I want to be strong like my mom.’ ”

Dear Jackson and Mallory, I am changing things up this year and writing you a Mother’s Day card. I can’t help myself. I am feeling emotional. Maybe it’s because Jacks is finishing fifth grade and Mally will be cruising into second. Maybe it’s because there are only 10 days left – in your entire school careers! – for me to drop you off and pick you up from the same place. God help me when we reach the end of middle school and high school with you two. For the moms hitting those milestones, I feel you!

Maybe I am worn down from the end-of-school year pace of the past few weeks. Let’s see … beyond school and work commitments, we’ve had an art show, a talent show, a band concert, a music program, three gymnastics classes, three baseball practices and seven baseball games. This could explain why Dad and I have caught these nasty colds.

But do you know what? We love every second – or almost every second.

We love it even when it’s driving us mad, and we can’t keep up with

Chasing Lyons Maria Lyons laundry or groceries or housework or life. And we are slightly scared of the day when you guys start to go off on your own. Did you know that? It’s true. What will we do when we’re not chasing our Lyons?

You, kiddos, are a daily reminder of our purpose on this Earth. I once thought that purpose was to raise you into interesting people who would go out and make this beautiful world a better place. But I am discovering our purpose as a family is to bring each other along.

We try to teach you about the important things in life, but we learn far more from you. We try to give you what you need to grow and thrive – and it’s truly something to see you changing by the minute. But you should see our hearts on the inside.

Did you know love could grow? It can.

Yes, you sometimes drive us crazy.

That’s what date nights are for – kidding! I know we sometimes drive you crazy, too. But our life together is its own special and chaotic crazy that the four of us (five – including our best dog, Fletch!) have created. We will have that forever.

I will cut the sappiness now, although be warned it will come back.

That’s how motherhood works.

It’s appropriate for this holiday to fall so close to the end of the school year, because this is the time of year when I feel like a mom in the fullest sense of the word.

You have a happy mom this Mother’s Day. Thank you for that. Now go clean your rooms …

Love, Mom

With services dwindling, take steps for better mental health May is Mental Health Month, and, while the emphasis this year is on ending the stigma of mental illness – since one in five individuals will experience a mental health crisis at least once in their lifetime – I am much more concerned that the availability of help for those who need it might not be available.

If you have been keeping up with the mental health news for this area, for example, you know many agencies have either closed their doors or drastically curtailed their services. This primarily is because of the lack of a state budget caused by the stalemate between our Republican governor and our Democratic legislators. I name no names.

You know who you are. However, even if our politicians had been able to pass a budget, the most recent proposal includes drastic across-the-board cuts for mental health services, primarily services for youth, the homeless and the elderly.

Besides that good news, there is a dearth of psychiatrists in McHenry County, and those that are still here

have long waiting lists.

So, what’s a body to do? I have done some research and found some self-help ideas for those of you who are stuck on hold for days at a time when you try to access DHS, or who have been on a waiting list for a psychiatrist for three months or more.

Sunlight, and vitamins that work with sunlight, will help with depression. I know it’s cold outside, and that the sun has been on vacation for awhile, but the good news is even in cloudy weather, ultra-violet rays get through.

So, go outside, and, while you are at it, take some Vitamin D3’s, about 3,000 units worth every day.

While you are outside, take a walk.

Exercise produces endorphins, which help with depression. (If you are not able to walk, sit outside and exercise in place, doing leg lifts, stretches, etc. Do what you can. Every little bit helps.)

If you can, get an emotional support animal. Stroking a cat or a dog creates oxytocin, which is a feel-good chemical that helps with depression and improves emotional well-being. (Also, as

you have to walk the dog, you will get exposure to sunlight, and you will get some exercise. Win-win!)

Sleep at least eight hours each night.

If your mind is racing, and you cannot sleep, try listening to soft music, take some melatonin, drink some chamomile tea at bedtime, or, just before climbing into bed, take a tablespoon of honey. Get comfortable, and read a very dull book.

Keep a gratitude journal. Every day, write down at least three things you are grateful for.

Eat three small, healthy meals and three snacks a day, preferably spaced apart about every three hours. This keeps your blood sugar level and helps with anxiety.

Talk to somebody. If you don’t have someone to call, NAMI (National Alliance for the Mentally Ill) provides peer counseling at no charge. Their national helpline number is 800-950 NAMI. Or, if you are thinking causing harm to yourself, call the Crisis Line at 800-982-8900.

Do something nice for someone else. It will make you feel better about yourself; it will brighten their day; and

the ripple effect will make the world a better place to live. (Caveat: have no expectations. You do this for the sake of doing it, not for undying gratitude or recognition or so someone will do the same for you.)

Laugh out loud. If you can’t find anything funny, say the worst thing you are thinking out loud, followed by “tee hee.” This creates cognitive dissonance, and may even make you laugh.

Don’t take anything … that is literally ANYTHING … personally.

Remember, we are all in this together, and we will get through it; eventually, the psychiatrist will call you for an appointment, you will find the ideal balance of medication, and, in the inimitable words of Ethyl Barrymore: “And all will be well; all will be well. All manner of things will be well.”

May Birthstone: Emerald Gem Talk

The emerald has been revered as one of the most popular and valued gemstones throughout history. With its deep green color, caused by traces of chromium, many people associate it with a lush green garden in full bloom. Emeralds have many inclusions, which the French call “jardin” meaning garden, because of their resemblance to foliage.

®

By Karly Bulinski

Emeralds are a 7.5-8 on the Moh’s Hardness Scale, they are very difficult to cut because they are quite brittle and have inclusions that cause the stone to easily crack or chip.

Emeralds grow very slowly within metamorphic rocks and are usually restricted in size by the rock, making large emeralds very costly and rare. The most prized emerald specimens come from a mine in Columbia but they are also found in Brazil, Zimbabwe, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Madagascar, Nigeria and Russia.

An emerald is believed to promote mental growth, perceptiveness and is effective against headaches. It symbolizes hope, development and maturity. It is supposed to bring luck and success as well as power. They were once considered to be an antidote to poison in India. The Egyptians used to leave these beautiful stones, engraved with the symbol of the leaf, in the tombs with their dead. The ancient Romans associated this precious gem with fertility and rebirth, and dedicated it to Venus, the goddess of love and beauty.

The emerald is the traditional gift for the 55th wedding anniversary but it is also used as a 20th and 35th wedding anniversary stone. We have a beautiful array of emeralds at Steffan’s and invite you to shop our selection either in the store or online!

McHenry County Substance Abuse Coalition branches out Sometimes there are people working in the best interests of the community, quietly and largely behind the scenes.

One such group is the McHenry County Substance Abuse Coalition. In the interest of full disclosure, I’m a member.

The coalition met initially about 15 years ago in response to concern about the growing heroin problem in and around McHenry County.

The small volunteer group was made up largely of treatment providers but would grow to include members from the business community, law enforcement, schools, concerned parents and others.

The coalition has been meeting monthly since then

and welcomes all who are interested in helping to address the problem of substance abuse in our county.

The coalition applied for and received a grant from the National Office of Drug Control and now has a paid staff member to manage the many projects it has on the table.

Since 2002, this group has presented three fullscale community forums on the heroin issue; the first co-sponsored by the Northwest Herald, the second by McHenry County College and the third by the city of Marengo and Marengo schools.

The coalition also organized a training day for treatment professionals and law enforcement personnel.

Efforts expanded to bring

attention to other substance abuse problems by offering support for the passage of Social Host legislation, keg tagging and involvement in the County Board’s initiative called The Underage Drinking Taskforce.

The coalition also participated in the county sheriff’s office initiative The HEAT Taskforce, focusing and coordinating efforts to address the burgeoning heroin problem.

In addition, the coalition has been instrumental in encouraging and assisting local police departments to carry Narcan, the heroin overdose reversal drug that has saved many lives; encouraged and supported new protocols for the distribution of prescription opioid drugs; supported and

encouraged the development of services specific to opioid addiction; has been instrumental in organizing and advertising the prescription drug take-back program with its numerous community dropboxes; and helped to shape the synthetic retail ban.

This year, the coalition has been vocal about regulating the potential for medical marijuana dispensaries in our areas and the impact of changing marijuana-associated legislation. Most recently, the efforts have turned to examining treatment needs and educating community members and medical professionals about the dangers of prescription opioid drugs in those older than 65.

The coalition is seen as

the place to get accurate and current information on substance abuse in both McHenry County and the state.

It continues to focus on community education and awareness as well as advocacy and support for those who are dedicated to improving services for drug- and alcohol-affected individuals and families.

By LINDSAY WEBER editorial@nwherald.com UNION – From bar coasters to church memorabilia, the collections of members of the McHenry County Historical Society are not your average stamp assortments.

“I think everybody in a way is trying to preserve a little bit of history,” museum exhibits curator Kira Halvey said. “This is a good way to reminisce and connect with it.”

Through Oct. 2, the McHenry County Historical Society Museum in Union will showcase 11 such member collections on the museum’s first floor.

“It’s our fourth year presenting our ‘members only’ display,” Halvey said.

“There’s a lot of history in our display cases. Each collection is very unique and not like the other. It’s really interesting to see what everyone is interested in collecting.”

In addition to the four collections featured below, the display will include chocolate molds, mason jars, pattern glass, Midgetoy Toys, miniature pewter figures, Immanuel Lutheran Church memorabilia and bar coasters.

“These are not permanent exhibits,” warns Halvey. “Come out and see them while you have the chance.”

Shaping McHenry County

Society member and Chicago and North Western Railroad Historical Society archivist Craig Pfannkuche of Wonder Lake provided pieces from the group’s collection for display, which features photographs, models of engines, lanterns, switch lock keys and car kits, as well as other artifacts from the 1840s through the 1980s.

“We have a boiler tube from the first original locomotive on the railroad called the Pioneer,” Pfannkuche said. “We are McHenry County’s founding railroad, and many communities in the county base their beginnings on the coming of the railroad.

It helped shape the way McHenry County was built. When McHenry County became a dairy county after the Civil War, many of those products were shipped by rail into Chicago. This line is very important to the history of the county.”

In the history books

MCHENRY COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY MEMBER COLLECTIONS DISPLAY WHEN: Display runs through Oct. 2. Museum hours are 1 to 4 p.m. Tuesday to Friday, as well as select Sundays.

WHERE: McHenry County Historical Society Museum, 6422 Main St., Union COST & INFO: McHenry County Historical Society members’ collections will be on view on the museum’s first floor. Cost: Free to members, $5 nonmembers, $3 seniors and students. Check the museum calendar for special events and free admission days.

Information: www.mchenrycountyhistory.org. has a kitchen utensil collection that doesn’t have any hot pens, but possibly some hot pads. Nelson’s collection is 30 years in the making. The 10-year society member said she found collecting antique kitchen utensils interesting and inexpensive.

“I find measuring spoons and cups most interesting because I think there is a greater variety of them than some other pieces,” Nelson said. “The museum itself has such a varied amount of artifacts that I think there is something for everyone to enjoy. Anything that can create interest and get people out here is a good thing.”

From rails to the stacks, member Maggie Crane’s submission of Woodstock Public Library historical photos and items are an appropriate homage to the library’s 125th anniversary, which was celebrated March 23. The exhibit features rare and interesting pieces, including a printed catalog from 1896 used before card catalogs.

Crane, of Woodstock, said paper catalogs were very expensive to print, so much so that in 1911, the library board instructed librarian Lura Wandrack to list the library holdings in the Woodstock Sentinel newspaper each week so everyone would know what All for love the library owned.

If not for kitchen utensils, perhaps “It’s fascinating to me that people love will entice you. A historical socioutside of library employees have no ety member since the early ’90s, Shel idea what the card sorter was used for.

“I received one from my husband Creative kitchens when my daughter was a baby. A red Myrna Nelson, of Island Lake,

one with lots of lace and a fabric rose with candy in it,” Trost said. “I kept it and started seeing vintage boxes at antiques stores and resale stores. There is a very active market for these empty boxes, and the values of mine have gone up over the years while many other collectibles have lost value.

“I’m not a frilly person, but I just love all the different ways they are decorated and all the colors I’ve found them in. When they’re grouped together, they create a really compelling display.”

Trost jumped at the opportunity to share her collection with visitors of the museum as well as fellow members.

“I was really interested in displaying these again,” Trost said. “I’m glad I got another chance to do so, because we have been downsizing and I may be selling all or part of the collection at some point.

“Seeing other members’ collections is very interesting to me; to see what they treasure as well as the knowledge that comes with building and maintaining a collection. I think the museum has given us a great opportunity to curate and display our passions.”

For Mother’s Day, skip the brunch, build a house, suggests Habitat for Humanity

By KATHY ORTON The Washington Post

Kelly Renaud (right) construction and program manager for Habitat for Humanity of Northern Virginia, instructs volunteer Kerry Fowler.

As a little girl, Kelly Renaud took tracing paper given to her by her grandmother and spent hours drawing floor plans. Now the Virginia Tech graduate makes a career out of building homes for Habitat for Humanity of Northern Virginia.

“I fell in love with construction and Habitat,” said Renaud, a construction and program manager and one of three women who lead Habitat NOVA’s construction team.

In honor of Mother’s Day and to highlight the homeownership hurdles faced by women, Habitat for Humanity created a weeklong, nationwide event called Nation-

al Women Build Week. The organization encourages women to spend time this week helping build homes for families. Instead of taking mom to brunch, Habitat would like women and men to celebrate motherhood by picking up a hammer, laying drywall or helping frame a house in their area. They expect more than 17,000 women to work on Habitat homes across the country during the week that culminates on Mother’s Day. “I really love to work with volunteers on the job site,” Renaud said. “I love getting to know people. I love to teach them a new skill that they didn’t know how to do before.”
