Good morning, McHenry County ...

County to see at least 2 new House reps The ripple effects of state Rep. Jack Franks’ decision to run for chairman of the McHenry County Board instead of another term in the General Assembly run far and wide. Franks, D-Marengo, was first elected to the Illinois House in 1998, and he has won re-election every two years since. Can the Republicans win Franks’ House seat back in November for the first time in nearly two decades? How would that affect the makeup of the whole General Assembly, which currently has a supermajority if 71 Democrats? Steve Reick, who lost to Franks two years ago, is again the GOP candidate. Democrats have until August to caucus in a replacement candidate for Franks’ 63rd House seat. The district covers most of western and northern McHenry County. State Rep. Mike Tryon, R-Crystal Lake, also is not seeking re-election after 12 years in the state House. That means McHenry County will have two new representatives in Springfield come January.

Republican Allen Skillicorn, an East Dundee trustee, and Democrat Nancy Zettler, an Algonquin attorney who has been active in School District 300 issues, square off in November to replace Tryon in the 66th House District, which includes parts of southeastern McHenry and northern Kane counties, including parts of Crystal Lake, Lake in the Hills, Huntley, Algonquin and Carpentersville. Then there’s the race for County Board chairman. If Franks were to win, how big of an effect does that have on county government overall. That’s a question for another column.

TODAY’S TALKER PENIS TRANSPLANT

BOSTON – A 64-year-old cancer patient received the nation’s first penis transplant, a groundbreaking operation that also may help accident victims and some U.S. veterans maimed by roadside bombs. In a case that represents the latest frontier in the growing field of reconstructive transplants, Thomas Manning of Halifax, Massachusetts, is faring well after the 15-hour operation last week, Massachusetts General Hospital said Monday. His doctors said they are cautiously optimistic that Manning will be able to urinate normally and function sexually again for the first time since aggressive penile cancer led to the amputation of the former bank courier’s genitals in 2012. – Wire report

MOTORCYCLE SAFETY MEASURES McHenry County courses aim to help riders avoid crashes By CAITLIN SWIECA cswieca@shawmedia.com When planning educational programs for new motorcycle riders, Scott Haas said he urges students to think of riding primarily as a mental exercise. “Riding a motorcycle is more a skill of the eyes and mind versus the hands and feet, meaning if a rider is paying attention, they can avoid situations where they have to use physical skills to get out of a problem,” Haas said. Haas, the director of the Motor-

cycle Safety Project at Northern Illinois University, said the curriculum for the project’s rider education courses – which is written by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation – is undergoing updates that reflect that mindset. Motorcycle classes around the area are filling up quickly as the summer months approach and new riders are eager to get their licenses and hit the road, instructors said. Unfortunately, early spring has brought about numerous area crashes involving motorcycles. A McHenry man died in late

April when his motorcycle collided with a guardrail. Elsewhere, motorcyclists have been transported to local hospitals with injuries from crashes in Hebron, Pistakee Highlands, Richmond, Harvard and McHenry. Haas said it’s not unusual to see a spate of such crashes right when the weather turns warmer. “Usually when people first get their motorcycle out in the spring, some of their skills might be a little rusty,” Haas said. “Since

Usually when people first get their motorcycle out in the spring, some of their skills might be a little rusty. Since they’re not a normal part of the traffic mix at that point, car drivers aren’t expecting to see motorcycles.”

Trustee proposes halt to board meetings Asks members to stop voting until Jacobson resigns as president By HANNAH PROKOP hprokop@shawmedia.com HEBRON – Despite residents and trustees asking him to resign, Hebron Village President John Jacobson conducted business as usual at Monday’s Village Board meeting. All trustees attended, but Trustee Drew Georgi asked Village Board members to stop coming to meetings as elected officials until Jacobson is no longer in charge. The meeting was the second Jacobson has led since his March 22 arrest when police said they found cocaine,

drug paraphernalia and a shotgun and ammunition in his home. Jacobson pleaded not guilty to charges April 26, and is next scheduled to appear in court June 7. About 20 people sat in the audience Monday, and no one spoke during public comment – a contrast to last month’s meeting when residents presented a petition signed by more than 200 people asking Jacobson to step down. Georgi said he plans John on sitting in the audi- Jacobson ence at the next meeting, and not taking an active part in voting. “As long as we keep coming to the village meetings, we are empowering, enabling, condoning and letting [Jacobson] believe that the board answers to him and not the other way around,” Georgi read from a prepared state-

ment. Bills that need to be paid to keep the village running will be taken care of even if trustees do not attend meetings, Georgi said. According to minutes from the Aug. 17 Village Board meeting, trustees approved a procedure to allow the village treasurer to pay “the usual and customary bills as to not incur late fees.” Georgi said this would include bills such as the gas, electric, telephone and payroll. When asked after the meeting what his response was to Georgi’s request, Jacobson said: “Everybody’s judging on one person’s deal and my personal deal. Other than that, I have nothing else to say except our village is turning around financially.” Trustee Steve Vole said “as long as [Georgi] doesn’t show up, we’ll be fine,” and declined to comment further. There was some concern from

Trustee Peter Canfield on new items not being passed if the Village Board didn’t meet quorum. “I like the idea, but I need to make sure business still continues for the village,” Canfield said after the meeting. Hebron resident Steve Cook stood by Georgi’s decision to not participate as a trustee until Jacobson is gone, and said he was getting tired of the embarrassment for the village. “I was embarrassed the others didn’t stand up and applaud [Georgi],” Cook said of the other trustees. During trustee comments, Mark Shepherd said an auditor gave an estimate on how much it would cost for the village to get a forensic audit, and it likely would cost more than $50,000. More than 200 residents signed a petition asking for the audit, and presented it to the Village Board at last month’s meeting.

Participants in the event slid the length of three football fields down Main Street, finishing near food vendors and more entertainment. The event is set to take place in Carpentersville this summer. $30 to $60 depending on the number of slides. “For the price, you can’t find a more thrilling ride,” Hunn said. “It is something you can’t describe in terms of how it makes you feel, like a child having fun playing.” The event took over Main Street in Algonquin last summer, drawing an estimated 2,500 people to slide on the first of a two-day slide event. Hunn said in

total, about 5,000 people attended. Held across the country, Hunn said the event is intended to be moved from city to city every year. He chose Carpentersville because of the size of the hill on Maple Avenue. This summer’s event could be expanded to two days depending on the turnout Saturday. Maple Avenue between Rosewood and Tamarac drives will be closed for the duration of the event.

Teen wanted for kidnapping, torture of ex-girlfriend arrested in Mexico By JORDYN REILAND jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A Lake in the Hills teen wanted in connection with the alleged kidnapping and torturing of his 19-year-old ex-girlfriend was arrested and is in custody in Kane County, a police official said. Luis M. Palomar, 18, was arrested in Mexico on March 22 after the Elgin Police Department issued a warrant one week before, Elgin Lt. Rick Cignaek said. Palomar faces Class X felony charges of home invasion, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated battery. He also was charged with aggravated bat-

tery-torture, a Class 1 felony. Palomar was extradited from Mexico to the Los Angeles County Jail in California before being transported to the Kane County Adult Justice Center in April, where he remains on $200,000 bond, according to county jail records. His next court appearance in Kane County Court is May 18. Police received inLuis M. formation Feb. 27 that a Palomar woman was being held against her will in the 300 block of Raymond Street in Elgin, police said. The 19-year-old victim was located and tak-

en to a local hospital, police have said. The victim previously told police she had been with Palomar at the residence in the 500 block of Levin Court when four females allegedly entered the residence with his help and forcibly removed her, police said. She was put in a vehicle and beaten by the offenders before arriving at the Raymond Street residence, where police have said they continued to kick and punch her, and burned her with cigarettes. Megan Lino, 20, of Carpentersville; Kassandra Delgado, 21, of Elgin; Ruby Gomez, 21, of Elgin; and Gino Moraca, 24, of Elgin, were charged in connection with the case.

LOCAL BRIEF

County Board slated to reject property-tax increase Tuesday

Longmeadow Parkway work to begin this week

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com

Board members in recent years have approved a set of guidelines to prevent major last-minute changes to the budget on the board floor the night of the vote. The County Board directed staff putting together the 2012 budget to accept the inflationary increase, but members changed their minds and attempted to change it the night of the budget vote – just two weeks before the start of the fiscal year. However, this does not mean that last-minute changes have not occurred since. County Board members on the night of the November 2015 vote for this current fiscal year budget approved an amendment to zero out the $3 million levy for Valley Hi Nursing Home for one year, in an attempt to address a fund surplus that has gotten large enough to fund three years of operations for the county-owned home west of Woodstock.

WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Board will again turn down an inflationary property-tax increase for its next budget under guidelines set for a vote Tuesday evening. It will be the fifth-straight year that County Board members have rejected the increase if they approve the guidelines without amending the proposal. The County Board in May adopts a set of guidelines and expectations that county staff use to craft the next fiscal year budget. The 2017 fiscal year for county government begins Dec. 1. The County Board in recent years has voluntarily spurned the inflationary increase that local governments are entitled to under the tax cap, in recognition of the plight of county homeowners

struggling with property-tax bills that at least one study ranks as among the nation’s highest. The tax cap law that the state imposed on the collar counties to rein in skyrocketing property-tax bills in 1991 has had an unforeseen effect with property values declining with the bursting of the housing bubble. When home values were rising, the law limited the increase that taxing bodies can receive over the previous year to either 5 percent or the rate of inflation, whichever is less. But when values fall, the tax cap helps government and hurts taxpayers by ensuring governments receive the inflationary rate if they so choose. While the County Board and other governments have spurned the automatic increase, many others have not, and have collected it to ensure they do not lose revenue.

ALGONQUIN – Construction on the section of Longmeadow Parkway between Huntley/Boyer and Randall roads is expected to start this week, weather permitting, the Kane County Division of Transportation said. The work is expected to be completed by fall 2016. Work will involve clearing and shaping the existing area for the construction of a new road and traffic signals, KDOT said. While most of the work will be off the road, trucks and equipment will be entering and exiting the construction site from Huntley/Boyer road, and motorists are asked to watch out for construction equipment and expect increased travel times. The Longmeadow Parkway Fox River Bridge Corridor, a planned tree-lined road about 5.6 miles long, is to extend from Huntley Road to Route 62. – Northwest Herald

Fire leaves home uninhabitable; 3 dogs rescued By KATIE DAHLSTROM kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com

CARPENTERSVILLE – Firefighters rescued three dogs from a house that was left uninhabitable after a fire Monday. The Carpentersville Fire Department responded about 9:30 a.m. to a report of a structure fire at a single-family home in the 100 block of Mora Road, Battalion Chief Bob Beattie said. When firefighters arrived, they found heavy fire and smoke showing from the home. It took about 10 minutes for firefighters to extinguish most of the flames, and about 25 minutes before the fire was entirely under control, Beattie said.

Crash at Routes 31 and 176 in Crystal Lake sends 2 to hospital CRYSTAL LAKE – A man and a woman were taken to a hospital after a Crystal Lake crash that shut down a major intersection for 30 to 45 minutes. The Crystal Lake Fire Rescue Department was dispatched about 7:15 p.m. Monday for the crash, which occurred on Route 31 at Route 176, Battalion Chief William Whyte said. Both drivers were transported to Centegra Hospital – Woodstock for injuries Whyte said were not considered life-threatening. He said it appeared to be a head-on collision that occurred after the southbound vehicle apparently crossed the median into the northbound lane. The Crystal Lake Police Department did not immediately return calls to comment or provide details of the crash. The intersection was shut down for about 30 to 45 minutes, Whyte said.

Firefighters who entered the home removed three dogs, who were not harmed in the blaze. Beattie said none of the residents were injured. The Red Cross was called to assist the family. Beattie said the fire might have started on the outside of the home before moving inside. The cause of the fire remains under investigation, but Beattie said it does not appear to be suspicious. Fire officials estimate the blaze caused $75,000 in damage.

MARENGO â€“ After staff revisited where cuts could be made in the budget to fill an expected $90,000 gap in the cityâ€™s water sewer budget, the Marengo City Council approved a lower rate increase than what originally was proposed. An average homeowner using 17,000 gallons of water in a quarter can expect to see an increase of about $7.50 on their quarterly water sewer bill starting this year, City Administrator Gary Boden said. That bill will increase again about 50 cents the following year, Boden said. Boden said additional changes in the budget, including cutting money for additional equipment, mean the city still will be able to fill in the projected gap in the water sewer budget with the lower rate increase. Boden and Assistant City Adminis-

trator Joshua Blakemore have said the water sewer fund is at a â€œbare operational level budget,â€? and proposed the rate increase partly to help put aside some cash for future capital improvement projects. The City Councilâ€™s discussion on the original proposed $9 increase per quarter for the average homeowner was split at the March 28 council meeting, and the decision was tabled at the April 11 meeting when the council asked staff to explore more options. Gary Boden At Mondayâ€™s meeting, Alderman Brett Martin was the sole no vote for the increase, and Alderman Dennis Hammortree was absent, Boden said. â€œI donâ€™t think there was enough effort to go into it to find more things that couldâ€™ve been done,â€? Martin said on why he voted no.

they’re not a normal part of the traffic mix at that point, car drivers aren’t expecting to see motorcycles.” Although motorcycles only represent 3 percent of registered vehicles in Illinois, they account for nearly 15 percent of traffic fatalities, the Illinois Department of Transportation said. Statewide motorcycle crash data from IDOT show encouraging news: Illinois saw a 22.4 percent decrease in fatalities from motorcycle crashes from 2013 to 2014, going from 152 to 118. Crashes causing injury saw less of a drop, going from 2,477 in 2013 to 2,418 in 2014, a 2.4 percent dip. Also consistent from past years was the fact that most people who died in crashes were not wearing helmets. Of those who died in a 2014 motorcycle crash, 28.8 percent wore helmets. Illinois law does not require motorcyclists to wear helmets, but Paul Stevens of Woodstock Harley-Davidson said the dealership requires students in its classes and employees on company vehicles to wear helmets. “We do stress in the class that it’s always advisable to wear a helmet,” Stevens said. “I think stats will back that up: If you’ve got a helmet on, you’ve got a much better chance of surviving an accident.” Other key skills taught in the class-

es, he said, include proper hand and eye placement, braking techniques, corner negotiation and swerve avoidance. At the Motorcycle Safety Project, which offers courses at McHenry County College, Haas said the new curriculum will have a component dealing with behavioral and attitudinal adjustments and understanding limitations. The goal, he said, is to help riders be smarter and avoid crashes before they happen. IDOT’s “Start Seeing Motorcycles” campaign also aims to reach drivers of other vehicles, urging them to stay alert at all times and use extra caution around motorcycles. The campaign also encourages those on motorcycles to make sure they are visible to other motorists by wearing appropriate protective gear, getting regular maintenance checks and taking advantage of motorcycle safety courses. Although wearing a helmet and other proper apparel can help decrease chances of a crash and lessen the impact of a crash, instructors say learning how to ride properly is just as important. “Crash survivability is good,” Haas said, “but crash avoidance would be better.”

OBITUARIES Born: Nov. 28, 1932 Died: May 4, 2016

Catherine “Rev” Colligan, age 83, went to be with the Lord on May 4, 2016. Born Nov. 28, 1932, the oldest of three children, in Beverly, Massachusetts, Catherine and her family moved to Scotland in the late 1930s. Unable to return home during World War II, Catherine was temporarily separated from her family when all children in the area were relocated to the highlands to protect them from the war. Later reunited with her family, Catherine moved back to the United States, living in Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia, and Oklahoma before settling in Illinois. A very talented dancer, Catherine’s promising career as a professional ballerina was cut short when she suffered a career-ending injury in her teens. As an adult, Catherine worked with the Department of Children and Family Services in Joliet. She later became the pastor of the United Church of Christ of Island Lake, Illinois, where she lovingly became known as “Rev.” Rev worked to help her fellow man through her work with the AA and Al-Anon communities. She was also a sought-after banquet speaker. For years Rev worked as a counselor at her private practice, Evergreen Country Clinic, where she helped countless numbers of

Corwin S. Freeman Jr., 68, of Elgin, IL, and Peachtree City, GA, passed away peacefully on Saturday, May 14, 2016. He was born in Elmhurst, IL, and raised in Naperville, IL. He lived by the principle of work hard, play hard. He excelled in the financial planning industry as president of Valley Estate Planners Ltd. His profession and business were his life passions, and he used to always say he hasn’t worked in over 40 years because if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. Cory treated his clients as family, always creatively finding solutions to maximize his client’s wealth. He leaves behind a highly satisfied client base and many dear friends. He was an enthusiastic Life and Qualifying Member of the Million Dollar Round Table since 1981, with Top of the Table production of this elite group of financial planners. Cory was an incredible husband to Cynthia Lea Freeman and father to three beautiful, equally favored daughters, Carrie, Katie and Courtney. Traveling the world with his family, Cory lived out many lifetimes’ worth of adventures and maintained a healthy hatred of the stairs his wife always managed to find while traveling. He is also survived by his three brothers John, Terry and, Chris, and his only sister, Mary Katherine. Cory battled cancer and gave it hell to the very end. He leaves the world a fighter, a Proud

NEW YORK – Actress Doris Roberts, who played the endlessly meddling mother on CBS’ “Everybody Loves Raymond,” was remembered Monday as a tireless actress, a loyal friend and someone who could make even a monster on TV be adored. “Here’s how good she was: She played the most intrusive, overbearing, noisy woman – always starting fights and whatnot and meddling in our business – and yet when I asked the fans who their favorite character was, all the time it was her,” said Ray Romano, who played her TV son. “She was so good at portraying the love that was underneath.” The public memorial tribute was held at the Ambassador Theatre, where she appeared in 1972 in “The Secret Affairs of Mildred Wild” with Maureen Stapleton. Roberts died April 17 at age 90. The speakers also included CBS head Les Moonves, “Everyone Loves Raymond” creator Phil Rosenthal, “Frasier” star David Hyde Pierce and Michael Cannata, the actress’ son. Roberts won four Emmy Awards for her portrayal of Marie Barone on “Everybody Loves Raymond,” receiving a total of seven nominations as best supporting actress for the sitcom, which ran for nine years. Romano called her “the MVP of our cast” and a “second mom” who would kindly go over and whisper “fabulous” to him after acting scenes in which he felt vulnerable.

STATE

Program expands grants for college classes By JENNIFER C. KERR The Associated Press WASHINGTON – For the first time, thousands of low-income high school students in nearly two dozen states will soon be able to get federal grants to take college courses for credit, part of a program the Obama administration plans to begin this summer. The experimental program allows high school students to apply for federal Pell grant money to pay for college courses. The “dual enrollment” program is designed to help students from lower-income backgrounds. The Education Department says the administration will invest about $20 million in the 2016-17 school year to help about 10,000 students. On Monday, the administration announced 44 colleges that are expected to participate. Education Secretary John B. King Jr. says too many students in need aren’t getting challenging coursework to help prepare and motivate them beyond high school. “The courses students take while in high school and the support they get to succeed in those courses are major factors in not only whether students go to college, but also in how well they will do when they get there,” King said in a call with reporters. “The more rigorous and engaging the classes are, the better.” The schools had applied for the program after it was announced last Octo-

ROUNDUP

Wilmette police: Sinead O’Connor found safe

1.4 million high school students took courses offered by a college or university for credit through dual enrollment programs. By offering grant money to kids from lower-income families, the administration is aiming to use the experimental program to help better prepare students in need for college. According to the department, less than 10 percent of children born in the bottom fourth of household incomes earn a bachelor’s degree by age 25, compared with more than 50 percent in the top fourth. Under Secretary of Education Ted Mitchell said participating high school students would begin using their Pell eligibility while participating in the dual-enrollment program. The goal, he said, is that this program would lead directly to careers or a transfer into a four-year degree program for students. “Rather than burning Pell dollars, these Pell dollars will accelerate students’ trajectory toward completing a degree on time, or early, at cost, or lower cost,” Mitchell told reporters after the selected colleges were announced. Pell amounts change each year. For the 2016-17 award year that begins in July, the maximum award is $5,815. The amount a student receives varies, depending on financial need, cost of attendance, status as a full-time or part-time student, and other factors. Students can receive Pell grants for no more than 12 semesters or roughly six years of college.

San Francisco talking with Lucas about museum

CHICAGO – A San Francisco Board of Supervisors member says the city has had preliminary discussions with George Lucas’ representatives about building his museum on an island in San Francisco Bay, instead of in Chicago. A plan to build the Lucas Museum of Narrative Arts along Chicago’s Lake Michigan waterfront is on hold due to a parks group’s lawsuit. Lucas’ wife, Mellody Hobson, recently said that the lawsuit has prompted a search outside the city for a place to build the museum. San Francisco supervisor Aaron Peskin says the city has spoken with Lucas reps about Treasure Island, which is a landfill turned into a now-decommissioned naval base that’s under redevelopment.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Military acted properly on Benghazi, lawyer says

WASHINGTON – The U.S. military acted properly on the night of the deadly 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya, according to leaked testimony from a retired, three-star Army general who served as chief lawyer for Republicans on the House committee investigating the attacks. Retired Army Lt. Gen. Dana Chipman “repeatedly commended the military’s actions on the night of the attacks during closed interviews with Defense Department officials,” including a Jan. 8 interview with former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, Democrats on the committee say. Chipman, a former judge advocate general for the Army, served as chief counsel for Republicans on the House Benghazi panel from August 2014 until January. Top Democrats on the committee – Reps. Elijah Cummings of Maryland and Adam Smith of Washington – released the testimony Sunday in a letter to the panel’s chairman, Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C. The letter is the latest volley in an escalating, election-year fight over the House Benghazi investigation, which has lasted two-plus years.

Supreme Court dodges decision on birth control

WASHINGTON – A short-handed Supreme Court dodged but kept alive a legal challenge Monday from faith-based groups over the Obama administration’s rules for cost-free access to birth control. It was the latest sign of justices struggling to find a majority for cases taken up before Justice Antonin Scalia’s death. The unsigned, unanimous opinion paved a way out of a politically thorny dispute for the eight-member court, which has split twice in 4-4 ties since the conservative jurist’s death in February. Yet it hardly settled the matter, even if President Barack Obama said the “practical effect is right now that women will still continue to be able to get contraception.” Deciding nothing but perhaps buying time, the justices asked lower courts to take another look at the issue in search of a compromise. The case concerns the administration’s arrangement for sparing faith-based groups from paying the birth control costs of women covered under their health plans.

Trump questions value of data, worrying GOP By BILL BARROW The Associated Press ATLANTA – Donald Trump says he plans to win the White House largely on the strength of his personality, not by leaning heavily on complex voter data operations that have become a behind-the-scenes staple in modern presidential campaigns. Shortly after Trump explained his approach in an Associated Press interview – data are “overrated,” he said – one of the presumptive Republican nominee’s top advisers tried to clarify the remarks. Rick Wiley told AP the Trump campaign will indeed tap the Republican Party’s massive cache of voter information. The national Republican Party has spent massive sums of money to develop the database since President Barack Obama’s election set a new standard for using data in national campaigns, from deciding where to send a candidate and how to spend advertising dollars to making sure supporters cast a ballot. The back-and-forth in the Trump camp leaves Republicans and Democrats alike wondering just how committed the candidate actually is to what has become accepted wisdom among political professionals. Some Republicans worry that Trump risks ceding potential advantages to likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton if he’s not willing to invest the money required to keep updating the data, and then use it effectively. “It’s a big risk,” said Chris Wilson, who ran an expansive data operation for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Trump’s stiffest competition in the Republican primaries. Jeremy Bird, who worked for President Barack Obama’s data-rich campaign, said: “Flying blind is nuts.” The use of data has evolved over the past several presidential campaigns into a shorthand for using information – starting with simple lists of

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, seen in his office at Trump Tower in New York, plans to win the White House largely on the strength of his personality. potential voters, then mated with extensive details about their habits and beliefs – to guide a campaign toward its ultimate goal: the 270 electoral votes needed to win the White House. In his AP interview, Trump discounted the value of data: The “candidate is by far the most important thing,” he said. He said he plans a “limited” use of data in his general election campaign and suggested Obama’s victories – universally viewed by political professionals as groundbreaking in the way data steered the campaign to voters – are misunderstood. “Obama got the votes much more so than his data processing machine, and I think the same is true with me,” Trump said, explaining that he will continue to focus on his signature rallies, free television exposure and his personal social media accounts to win voters over. Buzz Jacobs, who was on the losing end of Obama’s success in 2008 as an aide to GOP nominee John McCain, said Trump oversimplifies the president’s victories. “We lost in large part because Obama’s ability to use data was so much better than ours,” Jacobs said. According to South Caro-

lina’s Republican chairman, Matt Moore: “Elections to a great degree are won on ... that last 1 or 2 percent that shows up or stays home. That group on either edge turns out because of data and digital. That’s a known fact.” Republicans and Democrats with experience running campaigns question why Trump would give up a chance to reinforce with data his ubiquitous presence on television and inarguable success with large-scale rallies – a platform of personality that Clinton has yet to match. Bird, whose consulting firm now works for the Clinton campaign, said Trump is giving himself a false choice. “At a big picture level, sure, Barack Obama got the votes – his bio, his policies, his ability to communicate,” Bird said. “But we wanted to do everything we could to get him and get his message to the right people.” Jacobs, who worked for a former Trump rival, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, said Trump is an outlier in being uninterested in data. The RNC and private groups, such as the billionaire conservative activist brothers Charles and David Koch, have spent hundreds of millions on their data programs since Obama’s election.

BRIEF Facebook CEO to meet with Glenn Beck, conservatives

NEW YORK â€“ Radio host Glenn Beck and American Enterprise Institute president Arthur Brooks are some of the conservative leaders Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg plans to meet with this week. The meeting, scheduled for Wednesday, follows a report that Facebook employed bias in the way it selected stories for its â€œTrending Topicsâ€? feature. A report in the tech blog Gizmodo claimed that Facebook downplays conservative news subjects. Facebook denies it, which relied upon a single anonymous individual with self-described conservative leanings. Zuckerberg said the Menlo Park, California, company is investigating the matter and has invited conservative leaders to meet with him. Others invited include Zac Moffatt, the co-founder of conservative technology company Targeted Victory, and Dana Perino, cohost of The Five on Fox News Channel. â€œI want to have a direct conversation about what Facebook stands for and how we can be sure our platform stays as open as possible,â€? Zuckerberg said in a Facebook post last week. â€“ Wire report

Clintons look at 2-for-1 presidency By LISA LERER and CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press HOPKINSVILLE, Ky. â€“ The notion of a 2-for-1 Clinton presidency is back. Recalling sunnier days of growth, low unemployment and budget surpluses under her husband, Hillary Clinton is telling Americans that Bill Clinton will be â€œin charge of revitalizing the economyâ€? if she wins the White House. What his work would be remains unclear: not a cabinet post, she indicated. But, as she has been saying for months, she expects him to play a leading role. Bill Clinton reigned over a strong economy, especially in the final years of his presidency, yet his economic legacy is mixed. The late 1990s were the last period to see sustained income gains for the typical American household. Middle-income wages have stagnated since then. But his refusal to step up regulation of exotic financial instruments known as derivatives was blamed in large measure for the collapse of the financial sector years later. The tech bubble of his time burst. And his agenda was driven by support for free trade deals, including one that gave China better

access to the U.S. market, that are held responsible by elements of both parties for driving jobs out of the country. Still, in those pre-9/11 days, itâ€™s a stretch of peace and prosperity like Americans havenâ€™t seen since and with her latest remarks, in Kentucky, Hillary Clinton is more firmly laying out how important he would be to her agenda. The situation is highly unusual: Not only would Clinton be the first president to have a â€œFirst Dude,â€? sheâ€™d also be the first Hillary Clinton to have a former president in the East Wing. Now, facing a two-front fight against Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, sheâ€™s stressing that Bill Clinton would be an asset in her administration, particularly with the kind of Southern white voters who once backed him but now are drawn to Trump. â€œTell me anybody else whoâ€™s been here as much or knows us as well,â€? said Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin, of Bill Clinton, during a campaign event in West Virginia. Hillary Clinton lost that primary â€“ a state her husband won by double digits â€“ earlier this month to Sanders.

Now Hiring Class A CDL Drivers

The GOP front-runner and his team are making a different political bet. They see Bill Clintonâ€™s history of scandal as ripe for exploitation. Still, in recent weeks, Clinton has begun sketching out a bit more of a role for her husband, though there is great ambiguity. She told West Virginians that heâ€™d focus on helping economically distressed communities, like those in coal county, reinvent themselves in a changing economy. â€œYouâ€™ll get sick of seeing him,â€? she said earlier this month. â€œThis gets him really, really excited.â€? Spokesman Nick Merrill said Monday that despite the candidateâ€™s description of her husbandâ€™s in-charge role, Clinton would be getting ahead of herself to talk about â€œany sort of formalized role for anyone.â€? But, he added, Bill Clinton â€œhas a lot to offer and it would be foolish not to use that in some capacity.â€? More any other political couple in recent American history, the Clintons have long viewed themselves as a joint package. Shortly after entering the White House, Clinton appointed his wife to head the administrationâ€™s effort to pass a major health care bill. The failed measure became known as â€œHillarycare.â€?

gypti could carry Zika well beyond the Southeast during the summer, and the more cold-hardy Asian tiger mosquito could be biting into the Midwest and Northeast. Both species are capable of spreading Zika, but experts have considered the Asian tiger less of a threat for triggering outbreaks than the Aedes aegypti. The Invasive Mosquito Project is coordinated by Kansas-based USDA entomologist Lee Cohnstaedt, who has explored crowdsourcing as a budget-conscious way to sample mosquito populations and cites research supporting volunteersâ€™ capabilities for collecting large-scale data. Now heâ€™s pinning his hopes for consistent data collection on students needing to do their homework, year after year. Heâ€™s thinking big: Participation from a fifth of U.S. schools. Adapting lesson plans for middle schools, scout troops and gardening clubs. Making mosquito surveys as common as public bird counts for conservation groups. Turning classroom routines into a lifelong habit of mosquito vigilance.

RALEIGH, N.C. â€“ Nearly a dozen people were arrested in North Carolinaâ€™s Legislative Building during a second swell of demonstrations led by civic and religious leaders opposing the stateâ€™s law limiting protections for LGBT people. Police arrested 11 protesters late Monday afternoon after authorities say they burst into the office of the House clerk demanding a meeting with a legislative leader to discuss the law, which also directs transgender people to use public bathrooms aligned with the sex on their birth certificate. General Assembly Police Chief Martin Brock said those arrested would be charged with second-degree trespassing and violating building rules, which prohibit visitors from disturbing workers performing duties. The protesters were among hundreds who participated in a rally led by the state NAACP on the Bicentennial Mall calling for a repeal of the bill and for Republican Gov. Pat McCrory to withdraw his support. â€“ Wire report

Now itâ€™s time for the Invasive Mosquito Project to scale up and fast, since Zika has been linked to serious birth defects and health officials are preparing for the possibility of small outbreaks in the U.S. But thereâ€™s little money in government budgets to track its spread. â€œWe donâ€™t have a lot of data â€“ good, solid data,â€? said John-Paul Mutebi, an entomologist with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control. What the USDA is proposing is the kind of population survey not seen in the continental United States since

World War II, when the country eradicated mosquito-borne viruses. In a 1945 film, the U.S. government encouraged schoolkids and scout troops to do their part in keeping their neighborhoods free from dengue and yellow fever. Volunteers now are needed to collect mosquito eggs in their communities and upload the data to populate an online map, which in turn will provide real-time information about hot spots to help researchers and mosquito controllers respond. Some local surveys have been revived as dengue fever and other viruses creep back into the country, carried in the blood of travelers and transmitted through mosquito bites. But that data hasnâ€™t been centralized, and the gaps are clear to CDC researchers, whose national maps only roughly show the possible spread of two disease-carrying mosquitoes. The CDCâ€™s maps are based on historical reports, recent research and surveys sent in February to mosquito control districts nationwide, but evidence remains thin for habitat estimates. They suspect that Aedes ae-

OUR VIEW

Arbitration bill bad for taxpayers With apologies to Yogi Bera, it’s deja vu all over again in Springfield. Less than a year ago, the Democrat-controlled General Assembly was asked to override a Gov. Bruce Rauner veto of a bad bill that sought to take the power of negotiating with the state’s labor unions out of the governor’s hands and place it into those of an unelected panel of arbitrators For the record who have no accountability to taxpayers. House Bill 580 would hand While the Senate the AFSME contract decision voted to override, over to an unelected arbitrator three Democratic who has no accountability to representatives, taxpayers. including Rep. Jack Franks of Marengo, did not vote to override, and the veto stood. With no Republican override votes, all 71 Democrats in the House were needed. Franks said he voted “present” because he disagreed with both sides of the issue. Springfield being Springfield, a new, yet worse, version of that bill is now in a similar position. Rauner and the state’s largest employee union, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, remain at odds over the terms of a new contract. AFSCME members have been working under the old contract terms since July 1. Because of Illinois’ dire fiscal condition, Rauner wants to freeze AFSCME workers’ salaries, saying the state can’t afford raises. AFSCME is seeking salary and benefit increases Rauner says will cost taxpayers an additional $3 billion over the life of the four-year contract. House Bill 580, the new version of last year’s legislation, would hand the contract decision over to an unelected arbitrator who has no accountability to taxpayers. That’s just not acceptable. Historically in Illinois, arbitration favors unions more often than not. And what’s worse about this latest version is it also tacks on automatic pay raises that immediately would cost an additional $400 million. Gov. Bruce Rauner vetoed HB580 Monday, setting up the General Assembly for another override vote, perhaps as early as Wednesday. Once again, all Republican lawmakers are expected to oppose the override. We urge Franks, who announced Sunday he will run for McHenry County Board chairman instead of another term in the House, to do so again.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Managing philanthropy at parks This country’s national parks, monuments and historic sites are, as anyone who has visited them will attest, treasures that must be fiercely protected. Any talk of corporate and other private sponsorships is bound to raise concerns. No one wants to see the Grand Canyon, the Statue of Liberty or El Capitan besmirched with company logos. But such befouling is not, in fact, being proposed. There is no reason the park system shouldn’t adopt fundraising practices that commonly are used in the nonprofit world – particularly because, given inadequate congressional support, the alternative is deterioration of these precious places. The National Park Service stirred controversy with its announcement of a revamp of its philanthropy policy. Private donations have played a role in development and maintenance of the park system throughout its 100-year history, but givers have received little or no recognition.

The proposed change, currently under review, would offer temporary naming rights to some park buildings and the addition of company logos to temporary signage, printed materials, exhibits and digital media. Critics have attacked the plan as creeping commercialization that will lead to Old Faithful being used to sell Viagra, or the Lincoln Memorial being used to promote hemorrhoid cream. While those sky-is-falling characterizations are off-base exaggerations, there is the risk of corporate sponsors creating conflicts of interest that could detract from the purposes of the parks. It is important to establish clear lines; the experiences of museums, universities and other nonprofits show the risks can be managed with advantage to both sides. A case in point is the more liberal giving policies of the Smithsonian Institution; that the panda habitat bears the name of donor David M. Rubenstein

doesn’t detract from the experience of viewing the zoo’s prized mammals. It is disgraceful the park system has been so systematically underfunded it has been forced to look for new sources of revenue. With yearly appropriations that don’t keep pace with inflation and a backlog of needed repairs estimated at $12 billion, there is simply, as National Park Foundation President and Chief Executive Will Shafroth said, not enough money for the park service to accomplish its goals. Congress’s refusal to live up to its obligations leaves the Park Service with little choice but to look for other viable means of maintaining the nation’s parks and monuments. As the National Park Service finalizes its rules, it is important to ensure there are protections against abuses, complete transparency about plans and a process for prudent decision-making and oversight.

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.

The Washington Post

VIEWS Rich Miller doesn’t have. Leader Durkin represents half of Senate Republican Leader Christine Radogno’s district, so convincing both of those chamber leaders to sign off on a plan that takes state money away from their own schools is just as difficult as convincing the two Chicago Democrats who head up the House and Senate to agree to Gov. Rauner’s K-12 funding proposal that reduces Chicago’s annual appropriation by $74 million because of the state’s antiquated and complicated funding formula. Like I said, this ain’t easy. The governor also has dumped all over Sen. Manar’s plan. He and his surrogates have slammed the proposal as a Chicago “bailout” and have vowed campaign reprisals. It’s not exactly the same, of course, but, in a way, Sen. Manar is to Senate President John Cullerton what former state Sen. Barack Obama was to Senate President Emil Jones, who helped mentor Obama’s rise to power. Manar is Cullerton’s former chief of staff, and Cullerton is helping him any way he can. He’s essentially Cul-

lerton’s golden boy. There is no doubt Sen. Manar has worked this piece of legislation harder than any individual has worked a bill in recent memory. He has traveled from one end of the state to the other, meeting with school superintendents and other education leaders in an attempt to cobble together a workable plan. He was on Chicago’s South Side just the other day, which produced smirks from some Republicans who believe he’s attempting to use this issue to advance his political career. But the reality is Manar has Cullerton’s full support, and Cullerton has been far more cooperative about coming up with a deal to end the months-long governmental stalemate than has House Speaker Michael Madigan. So, maybe the governor and his peeps should lay off the rhetoric a bit because things are tough enough. Cullerton allowed Manar to hold a vote on his funding plan last week, even though Manar and other Democrats went out of their way to declare that the bill needs a lot more work. Republicans claimed forcing the vote very well could make it more difficult to reach an agreement on education spending. Many freely admit the current system is horribly flawed. But the school funding formula is so crazily complicated any successful revamp will take serious

bipartisan effort. And, indeed, talks have been held to devise a more easily constructed “bridge” between today’s system and a future more in line with Manar’s vision. But the Republicans say by running Manar’s bill instead of negotiating, the Senate Democrats may have very well hardened positions on their side of the aisle. Only one Republican voted for it, after all. So the momentum has shifted to the other chamber, where a special committee led by House Majority Leader Barbara Flynn Currie is trying to construct an alternative. But there are those who believe Madigan isn’t serious about getting something done. But someone had better come up with something soon because Manar said last week there was no way he will vote for the governor’s K-12 appropriations bill because it slashes funding for schools in his district, as did other Senate Democrats. And even some Downstate Republicans who voted against Manar’s bill would prefer a different formula to prevent their own schools from losing state money under the current formula. We could wind up with no school funding at all.

We saw some examples last week of why school funding reform is so difficult to accomplish in Illinois. House Republican Leader Jim Durkin appeared with Gov. Bruce Rauner at Lyons Township High School, which is in Durkin’s district. Durkin pointed out to reporters the school would lose $1.9 million in state funding under Sen. Andy Manar’s controversial school funding reform bill. Leader Durkin also claimed every school district in his House district would lose funding with Manar’s proposal. Chicago, he noted, would gain hundreds of millions of dollars. Durkin declared he and his members could not and would not support a plan that shoveled big-time bucks at Chicago while cutting their own districts. But that’s really the whole point of Manar’s plan. He wants to shift state funding away from wealthier suburban districts like those Durkin represents (14.2 percent of Lyons Township High School students are from low-income households) to districts that have high numbers of impoverished students (86 percent of Chicago Public Schools students are from low-income households). Sen. Manar wants a “hold harmless” provision to make sure no district loses money right away, but that’ll cost quite a bit of cash, which the state

Gannett ups bid for Tribune Co.

Offer raised 22 percent to $864 million The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – USA Today owner Gannett has boosted its takeover bid for Tribune Publishing Co. by about 22 percent one week after the owner of the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune and other newspapers adopted a “poison pill” plan to thwart the unsolicited offer. Gannett Co. announced Monday that it was raising its bid to $15 per Tribune share, up from the $12.25 per share it previously offered. Gannett said that the total value of the revised offer is approximately $864 million, which includes the assumption of certain Tribune liabilities, such as about $385 million in outstanding debt. Tribune confirmed that it received the revised offer and said that its board would thoroughly review the proposal. Tribune shares jumped 19 percent to $13.65 at the open of trading Monday. The Chicago company had rejected Gannett’s prior per-share bid of $12.25, saying the price was too low. Gannett Chairman John Jeffry Louis said in a company release that the McLean, Virginia, company was raising its offer to show its “commitment to engaging in serious and meaningful negotia-

“[Raising the offer shows Gannett’s] commitment to engaging in serious and meaningful negotiations with the Tribune board to reach a mutually agreeable transaction.” John Jeffry Louis Gannett Co. chairman tions with the Tribune board to reach a mutually agreeable transaction where Gannett acquires all of Tribune.” Gannett’s attempts to acquire Tribune come after a shake-up at the company. In February, Chicago investor Michael W. Ferro Jr. gave Tribune a $44.4 million cash infusion through his company Merrick Media. Ferro was later named the nonexecutive chairman of the newspaper publisher. Weeks later, the company ousted its CEO and named Justin Dearborn to that key job.

Detroit automakers sense threat, embrace mobility By DEE–ANN DURBIN The Associated Press DEARBORN, Mich. – For Detroit, the days of simply making cars are over. Automakers are facing multiple threats to their business from nimble tech firms such as Apple and Uber. In response, carmakers are reinventing themselves as “mobility” companies that can accommodate all the different ways people get around. Already this year, General Motors Co. has announced a long-term alliance with ride-hailing company Lyft and started a car-sharing service called Maven. Ford created a technology-focused division based in Silicon Valley that will invest in promising transportation startups. It also launched FordPass, a smartphone app that helps users find parking or share their cars. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is partnering with Google to test self-driving software in 100 of its minivans. In congested and expensive cities, people are increasingly content to share cars or summon rides using their smartphones. In five years, 35 million people globally will be using car-sharing services, up from 5.8 million now, according to Boston Consulting Group. That means 550,000 fewer cars sold each year. Within another few decades, fleets of self-driving taxis could replace the need for personal car ownership altogether.

Automakers that don’t adapt risk being supplanted by high-tech competitors. “We’re investing in future-proofing,” says Elena Ford, who led the development of FordPass and is the great-great-granddaughter of Ford’s founder. There are dangers. Making vehicles is complicated and expensive, and car companies have stumbled when they’ve taken on new businesses. GM bought software maker Electronic Data Systems Inc. in 1984 but sold it 12 years later. Ford owned Hertz rental cars but sold it a decade ago. Chrysler owned airplane-maker Gulfstream in the mid-1980s. In each case, the companies sold those businesses to refocus on car-making. There’s also the open question of whether drivers want automakers to do more than make cars. Ford CEO Mark Fields is confident they do. “It goes back to Henry Ford and one of his favorite quotes: ‘If I asked people what they wanted, they’d say they wanted a faster horse,’” Fields said. “We want to transform, fundamentally, the relationship between an automaker and a customer.” Fields added that the financial case is too compelling to ignore. Global revenue at traditional automakers totals $2.3 trillion a year, he says; the transportation business, including taxis, buses and car-sharing, is worth $5.4 trillion.

‘Hamilton’ star Miranda: ‘Immigrants get job done’

AP file photo

Angelina Jolie, the special envoy of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, speaks during a news conference March 15 at a Syrian refugee camp, in the eastern city of Zahleh, Lebanon. Angelina Jolie said she is “very disheartened” by the U.S. response to the global migration crisis.

Jolie ‘disheartened’ by U.S. response to migrant crisis LONDON – Angelina Jolie said she is “very disheartened” by the U.S. response to the global migration crisis, and fears countries will adopt increasingly isolationist policies instead of acting together to tackle the challenge. The special envoy for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees said Monday that worries about uncontrolled immigration have given a “false air of legitimacy to those who promote politics of fear and separation.” “It has created the risk of a race to the bottom, with countries competing to be the toughest,” she said at a migration event sponsored by the BBC in London. She said nations need to pull together to deal with the world’s 60 million displaced people by rebuilding a coordinated and orderly system for dealing with refugees and migrants. “I have been very, very disheartened by my own country’s response to the situation,” Jolie said. She referred to Republican presidential contender Donald Trump, who suggested a temporary ban on all Muslims entering the U.S. in the wake of attacks by extremists. “To me, America is built on people from around the world coming together for freedoms, and especially freedom of religion,” she said. “And so it is hard to hear that this is coming from someone who’s pressing to be an American president.”

PHILADELPHIA – The creator of the hit Broadway musical “Hamilton” said it’s a needed reminder during a heated political season that “immigrants get the job done.” Lin-Manuel Miranda, who wrote and stars in the inventive biographical hip-hop show about the life of Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton, also apologized for not mentioning Philadelphia even though some of the action occurs in the city. Miranda, speaking Monday at the University of Pennsylvania commencement, said even as politics traffic in “anti-immigrant rhetoric,” there is a musical “reminding us that a broke orphan immigrant from the West Indies built our financial system.” “Since the beginning of the great unfinished symphony that is our American experiment, time and time again immigrants get the job done,” he said. It was a thinly veiled jab at presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, who wants to deport the millions of people in the U.S. illegally. Miranda began by apologizing for omitting any mention of Philadelphia or Pennsylvania except for one “blink and you miss it” reference to the Liberty Bell. He also apologized on the real Hamilton’s behalf for the decision to move the capital from Philadelphia, saying his character “traded Philly away in the most significant back-room deal in American history.”

Meet the next sport of the modern age: Drone racing By RYAN NAKASHIMA The Associated Press HAWTHORNE, Calif. – Decked out in high-tech goggles, pilot Steve Zoumas dives low and sees the final gate zooming toward him: a 20-foot-tall metal-framed box ringed with neon. Boom! His sight goes black. The crowd lets out a collective “Whoa!” as pieces of his aircraft, which has just smashed into a concrete barrier, go flying. Zoumas is just fine, though; it’s his drone that’s toast. The pilot takes off his goggles and crosses to the pilots’ lounge for the replay. Once again his quadcopter drone, a buzzing machine roughly the size of a loaf of bread, zooms daringly around obstacles and through hairpin turns; once again, it meets its demise. “I was pushing it that lap,” says Zoumas, a 31-year-old construction company owner. “I just wanted to put on a show for the crowd.” Welcome to drone racing, a wouldbe sport in which men, and a few women, fly remote-controlled drones against competitors at up to 80 mph along looping courses with hairpin curves and drops. Many races take place in open fields, but here, racers and spectators have gathered in an abandoned, rubble-strewn mall set up with course-marking gates across two floors. Fans sit on bleachers behind protective mesh, passing around antenna-equipped goggles to see the pilot’s view. Big-screen TVs show off unique camera angles while glowing copters whizz by, emitting the high-pitched hum of weed whackers on steroids. Racing is a labor of love for many pilots. Many are born tinkerers and spend hours customizing their drones with new parts or building them from scratch. Some say they’ve spent more than $10,000 on frames, motors, batteries, propellers and camera mounts. Fred Loo, a 31-year-old pilot known as “Flying Bear,” says he and his wife even put off having kids so he could spend more time racing. He says he’d give up his high-paying Silicon Valley job in a heartbeat if he could figure out how to fly drones for a living. Of course, that’s the sticking point.

Drone Racing League founder and CEO Nick Horbaczewski stands March 19 at the vacant Hawthorne Plaza mall in Hawthorne, Calif. Horbaczewski is betting he can transform drone racing from a throw-down among hobbyists into a mainstream spectacle.

ABOVE: Drones are readied before races held by the Drone Racing League at a vacant mall in Hawthorne, Calif. LEFT: Fred “Flying Bear” Loo watches a drone race with other pilots during the event. Drone racing still is something of a guerrilla sport, even though ESPN has agreed to air a drone special on its ESPN3 channel this fall. Money is tight, and most pilots have to keep their day jobs. While high-profile races such as the World Drone Prix, held in Dubai in March, pay out as much as $250,000 to the winning pilot, such affluence feels very distant here in the shell of the Hawthorne Plaza mall. That could change if drone racing hits it big, attracting a mass audience and the sponsors who want to sell them stuff. Serial entrepreneur Nick Horbaczewski, who founded the Drone Racing League last year, thinks he knows how to pull that off.

The trick, he says, is making the audience feel the same thrill as the pilots. That’s why his league lights up each quadcopter and its pilot’s goggles with matching colored LEDs, which help spectators track the tiny speeding drones. It’s also why pilots wear T-shirts emblazoned with nicknames like “KittyCopter,” “Rekrek” and “Zoomas.” Pilot backstories and slick editing build up the drama for videos put online. The fast-talking 35-year-old helped turn “Tough Mudders,” a quirky half marathon in which people pay to slog through artificial quagmires, into a $100-million-plus business as its chief revenue officer. He sank his own

money into the drone league last year, although he also raised $8 million from the likes of Miami Dolphins’ owner Steve Ross, the talent business Creative Artists Agency and media giant Hearst. But there’s plenty of turbulence ahead. Similarly promising quasi-athletic leagues have crashed and burned before. Further complicating things, multiple drone-racing leagues are vying for attention. Horbaczewski’s major competition is the International Drone Racing Association, which will have a special on ESPN3 in the fall. There are a handful of other big leagues around the world, and grassroots races pop up all the time.

Hands-free driving: safe or not? SPONSORED BY

By By C.R. Walker Many people believe that handsfree driving is also safe driving. Sadly, they couldn’t be more wrong. According to the National Safety Council, approximately 26 percent of all car crashes involve cell phone use, including the use of hands-free cell phones. Since Illinois law allows hands-free technology while driving, including speakerphones, Bluetooth and headsets, some people automatically believe that using such technology while driving is safe. It should be noted that all cell phone use is prohibited, even on hands-free devices, while driving in a school zone or in a highway construction zone. The misconception is that some people believe that if you’re handsfree and looking ahead then you’re focused enough on the task of driving.

Unfortunately, that’s inaccurate and can be deadly. The brain has to switch back and forth between tasks but cannot do two things at the same time. In fact, the activity in the area of the brain that is used to process moving images can decrease by as much as 33 percent when you are also using a cell phone. In addition, studies have shown that drivers looking through the windshield can miss seeing close to 50 percent of what’s around them when they’re preoccupied with talking on a cell phone. Imagine trying to read a magazine article while having a conversation at the same time. Do you think you could do it? Thankfully, the worse case scenario there would be that you wouldn’t fully comprehend the article and you would probably not completely hear what was said during the phone conversation. If you try to talk on the phone and drive at the same time, it could cost you or an innocent other driver his or her life. Rather than considering hands-free technology, make the decision to put down and turn off the technology until you’re done driving.

Raise your hand if in the past 30 days you’ve hunched over a plate, tweaking filters here, adjusting warmth or structure there, all to create the perfect #foodgram. If you consider yourself a pro, you probably also stand on your chair to achieve the ever-popular overhead shot. All the while, your food goes cold and the temperament of your fellow diners grows colder. Foodie, a free iOS and Android app with filters it says are optimized for food photography, wants to make taking stylish photos of food simple. While other photography editing apps – most notably Instagram and VSCO – can filter your photos to almost no end, Foodie is relatively basic. You can open the app, choose the aspect

food. After snapping your shot, there is no further tinkering and no agonizing over the saturation or Lux levels; whether you like it or not, the filters do most of the work for you. The filters did make my food photography pop – colors were brighter, angles sharpened here, edges blurred there – although I like to think some pre-photo staging and styling remain important. My biggest test came when taking photos in dimly lit areas, when the poor lighting almost always produces terrible images of food (see Martha Stewart’s famously awful Twitter photos circa 2013). With Foodie, even my tater tots and empty cocktail glass shot in a dark bar looked good. My only quibble lies in terminology. Putting aside the mildly eye-roll-inducing name of the app, the names of Foodie’s filters are a

28 Take children’s dental health seriously Dear Dr. K: I just took my 4-year-old to the dentist, and she has three cavities. How can I better care for her teeth? And what can I do for my infant son so he doesn’t end up with cavities, too? Dear Reader: Our mouths are home to many bacteria. They live there pretty much all of our lives, taking advantage of one convenient fact: When we put food in our mouth, that’s food for bacteria, too. And while we have to work to put food in our mouths, they just sit there. Doesn’t seem fair. Eating or drinking too many sugary foods or not properly brushing or flossing our teeth allows these bacteria to grow too much and make acid that slowly breaks down a tooth’s hard enamel. When that happens, a small pit forms in the tooth – what we call a cavity. Cavities in young children can cause pain, swelling and abnormalities in how the bottom and top teeth come together. There are simple steps parents can take to help reduce the risk of cavities for their children. Follow these guidelines for infants and toddlers up to the age of 3 years: • Wipe off an infant’s gums and mouth with a damp cloth after feedings. • Brush a child’s teeth as soon as they appear, twice daily: morning and evening (after the last feeding). • Floss between the teeth once every day as soon as teeth touch one another. • Do not put babies to bed with a bottle or cup that contains milk or juice. Water is OK. • Use fluoride, but cautiously. All children need to have some fluoride, but talk to your doctor about how much and which form to use. Children who drink well water or filtered or bottled water might need fluoride supplements. Those

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff who drink tap water in communities that fluoridate water probably don’t need supplements. • Drink fruit juices only at meals and avoid all soda during the first 2½ years. Children ages 3 and older should: • Brush thoroughly twice daily and floss at least once every day. • Use fluoride toothpaste approved by the American Dental Association. • Rinse every night with an alcohol-free over-the-counter mouth rinse with 0.05 percent sodium fluoride. •Visit a dentist and have any cavities treated as soon as possible. Consider allowing your child to chew xylitol gum, which may decrease the rate of cavities in children. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends all children be referred to a pediatric dentist within six months after the first tooth appears or by 12 months of age. Some parents think they don’t need to worry about a child’s dental health until the permanent teeth start to come in, usually at around age 6. That’s not the case. The permanent teeth will emerge into a mouth with bacteria that have been influenced by the care the mouth has received over the past several years – for better or for worse. So I’m glad you’re taking your children’s teeth seriously. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

your husband directly why he is either unwilling or unable to perform in the bedroom. You are entitled to an explanation, because he might be having second thoughts not only about starting a family, but also the marriage. If he has changed his mind about having children, talk to a lawyer because you might be able to get an annulment. Dear Abby: I have a friend who is in the Navy. We have been friends for a year and a half, but have never met in person. He’s 19 and I’m 17. We Skype at least once a week. He has fallen for me and doesn’t know what to do because he’s in an arranged marriage he doesn’t want to be in. He doesn’t know the girl, doesn’t know what she looks like or even know her name. All he knows is she lives in Russia. I have fallen for him, too. He is only going through with the marriage because his grandparents did it. I thought I would ask for some advice on what I should do. – Miss Confused Dear Miss Confused: Are you sure this person is who he has represented himself to be? “Because his grandparents did it” is not a good reason to go through with a marriage to a stranger. If his story is true, it appears this young man’s family has his future mapped out for him, and he isn’t independent enough to resist. If you continue this Skype romance, I see nothing but sadness ahead for you. You would be happier if you found someone closer to home, someone whom you can meet in person. Dear Abby: I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I say yes to everything. I agree to plans that override those I have already made. Then I have to lie my way out of things I don’t want to do. It’s ruining my life. – Can’t Say No Dear Can’t Say No: What’s wrong is you are trying to be a people-pleaser. The problem with making promises you can’t keep is eventually you will become labeled as a flake when you don’t follow through. If you’re afraid you won’t be liked if you take the risk of just saying no, you are mistaken. People will respect you for standing up for yourself and drawing the line, as long as it’s done politely.

Sometimes your partner -- never you! -- will do something that would not pass muster in the cold light of day, but seemed like a good idea at the time. Then you must cover for him. In this deal from a pair tournament, how should South play in seven -- yes, seven -- no-trump after West leads the diamond queen? The bidding was clearly debatable. North’s three-club rebid was a double negative, showing 0-3 points. Then his call of three spades promised nothing. So, when South gambled with his jump to six notrump (hoping to outscore pairs in six spades), North decided that since he could have had zero points, his invaluable spade queen justified raising to seven. South had only 10 top tricks: five spades, one heart, two diamonds and two clubs. To make seven, South assumed that East held the heart king, but if he had king-fourth or kingfifth, it would be necessary to take the finesse three times. That would require three dummy entries from those spades. At trick two, declarer led his spade jack and, when West followed suit, overtook with dummy’s queen. East’s discard was a pleasing sight for South. Next, a heart finesse worked. Back to dummy with a spade to the eight, declarer took a second heart finesse. Then, after a spade to the 10, a third heart finesse saw seven no-trump home for a cold top -- and a very unhappy East-West. If East had followed with a low spade on the first round of the suit, South would have played a spade to the 10 next, hoping either that the nine appeared or that East had at most three hearts.

Jacobs (19-11, 9-7) wants to build some momentum for the Class 4A Belvidere North Regional next week. Salomon had an RBI single in the Eagles’ four-run fifth inning that tied the score at 4. In the seventh, after Cameron Wilson doubled and Adam Kale walked, Salomon twice fouled off bunt attempts against C-G’s Ben Dolezal before driving in the go-ahead run. “I got down in the count and was looking for something to take the other way,” Salomon said. “But he gave me a changeup inside, and I took it [to left field].” Rohde, making only his second varsity appearance, thrived in the closer role last season with 12 saves in 13 chances. He has hit 90 mph on speed guns but spent most of the season trying to get over a sore elbow. He struck out Nick Kirk with runners at first and third to end the sixth, then left the tying run at second with a strikeout of Ben Levicki to end the game. “It feels different because I’m not as strong as I used to be, but once I got out there and throwing, I got stronger as I went,” Rohde said. “I threw a lot of fastballs. I was in the heart of their lineup, so I tried to mix in some offspeed and not leave anything over (the plate) too far.” C-G starter Danny Schmidt stranded six runners to keep Jacobs scoreless through four innings. Dolezal escaped further trouble that inning with a strikeout with runners on first and third. C-G got its four-run lead off Brenden Heiss, who allowed three earned runs on five hits. “You’re always trying to get more than a couple runs against those really good pitchers,” Trojans coach Don Sutherland said. “It’s nice to have a four-run lead, but you have to hold the lead up a little bit better. Maybe we could have got a couple more runs. They just played better than us.”

this game as you want to,” Eaton said, “but if you don’t win championships, no one is going to remember you. I want to win.” Eaton also knows his value profiles better when his offensive numbers are compared with center fielders. Not that he’s playing for a contract – Hahn signed him to a five-year, $23.5 million deal before last season. “In right field, it’s different from a value standpoint, a smaller guy playing right field who hits 10 homers, when I have to compete with guys who hit 25 or 30 home runs,” he said. “In that [respect], my value changes a little.” Hitting .303/.396/.421 has helped him build a WAR of 2.3 (FanGraphs), tied for fifth among all position players in baseball. Last season, Eaton hit .287/.361/.431 with 14 homers, 56 RBIs and 98 runs scored after a slow start. He ranked 47th in WAR last season. Obviously, the switch is working well for player and team. “If Austin comes back (next season), we’ll have a good outfield again,” Eaton said. “I think we’re better with him in center – he’s a great center fielder. When you have multiple center fielders in the outfield, you’re going to be better.”

CUBS

Pirates’ Cole apparently not impressed by Cubs Cubs fans spent Monday twisting themselves into pretzels of indignation over the following comment made by Pirates pitcher Gerrit Cole on Sunday: “I don’t really think they’re the best team in baseball,” Cole said after his team’s first victory in six tries against the Cubs this season. Where does this guy get off saying such a thing about an organization that hasn’t proved itself to be the best team in baseball since 1908, otherwise known as David Ross’ rookie year? Needless to say, the Cubs have played six weeks of the best baseball on the planet. They’re 27-9. They’re 13-3 on the road, with a nine-game swing through Milwaukee, San Francisco and St. Louis beginning Tuesday. They’ve been better than most teams – and for darn sure Cole’s Pirates – at pretty much everything. But I’m cool with Cole holding out on calling the Cubs the best, no matter how disingenuous he sounds in doing so. Maybe he subscribes to the vapid,

VIEWS Steve Greenberg yet fairly common, line of thinking that the defending league champs, in this case the sub-.500 Royals, are the “best” until a different team wins it all. Or maybe he thinks the Pirates are the best … no, that’s not possible. Maybe Cole thinks Jake Arrieta, Anthony Rizzo, et al., just keep getting really lucky. There probably are at least a few other stragglers in Cole’s camp, too. Aren’t there always those outliers who aren’t big on empirical evidence or simply don’t do well with change? Ah, well. In their defense, the season is less than one-quarter old. We’ll give them a break for now.

THREE UP/DOWN Up: Rizzo’s MLB-high 26-game

on-base streak ended Sunday, but Ben Zobrist – who batted .500, scored

12 runs and knocked in 12 over the just-completed 10-game homestand – has reached base safely in his past 22 starts. Addison Russell has done so in 18 straight games. Isn’t it just like these Cubs to have a couple of guys ready to grab the baton? Down: The Cubs are only 1-7 when failing to score at least four runs. When they’re off, they’re off. Up: Is there any doubt a virtual sea of Cubs fans will be “up” in Milwaukee and in the stands at Miller Park for Tuesday’s, Wednesday’s and Thursday’s games against the somnolent Brewers? (Hint: No, there is not.)

Adam Eaton is flourishing in right field, off to the best season of his life after performing to mixed reviews in center field the previous two years. But he doesn’t want to stay there. Eaton makes this much clear: There’s no itch to move now, not with Austin Jackson adequately patrolling center field in the best interest of the Sox, who will take a 24-14 record into their three-game series against the Houston Astros on Tuesday night at U.S. Cellular Field. The domino effect of Eaton’s move to right and Avisail Garcia’s shift from right to DH after Jackson was signed to a one-year deal during spring training has been a big key to the Sox’ defensive about-face. Eaton, who made the move willingly, knows it’s best for all involved where he’s at. He also knows it’s best for career interests if he gets back to center at some point after this season. And he, and many in the organization agree – general manager Rick Hahn included – that Eaton could be a very good center fielder again. “I would want to, absolutely,” Eaton

to make better reads on balls off the bat, gets to the line and warning track quickly and makes sure potential doubles are held to singles. He believes he can play that way in center, too. Two years ago, his first season after Hahn acquired him in a three-team trade that cost the Sox lefthander Hector Santiago, Eaton was a Gold Glove finalist. “He can still be a real good center fielder like he was in 2014,” Hahn said. Hahn also says Eaton has “thrived” on the switch, “and we’ve all benefited from it.” But center still owns Eaton’s heart. “I would love to be a center fielder,” Eaton said. “It’s hard for people to agree after the year I had last year, but I’m more the center fielder I was the year before. Last year was a little fluky. But AP photo if there’s a better man for the position White Sox right fielder Adam Eaton makes and it makes the team better, I have no a leaping catch on a ball hit by the Yankees’ thoughts of moving over.

Towns gives Minnesota back-to-back rookies of year

Crosby’s OT goal lifts Pens By WILL GRAVES

The ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Associated Press PITTSBURGH – Sidney Crosby beat Andrei Vasilevskiy from the circle 40 seconds into overtime, and the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Tampa Bay Lightning, 3-2, Monday night to leave the Eastern Conference finals tied at a game apiece. Crosby, who hadn’t scored since the opening round against the New York Rangers, took a feed from Bryan Rust and buried it for his fourth goal of the postseason. Matt Cullen and Phil Kessel also scored for the Penguins. Matt Murray overcame a shaky start to finish with 19 saves as Pittsburgh improved to 3-1 in overtime during the playoffs. “They generated a lot and he still made some great saves, kept us in it,” Crosby said. Anton Stralman scored in his return to the lineup from a fractured left leg and Jonathan Drouin picked up his second goal in as many games, but the Lightning lost for only the third time in 12 postseason games when Vasilevskiy couldn’t handle Crosby’s wrist shot. Vasilevskiy played brilliantly at times while filling in for injured starter Ben Bishop, making 38 stops. Game 3 is Wednesday night in Tampa. The Penguins pointed to an inability to generate quality chances from in close as a major problem in Game 1. In danger of falling behind by two games for the first time in the postseason, Pittsburgh wasted little time trying to make Vasilevskiy uncomfortable, scoring a pair of early goals on scrambles from in front. Cullen pounded home a rebound 4:32 in for the 39-yearold’s fourth goal of the playoffs. Just more than five minutes later Kessel darted in from the point and zipped one by Vasilevskiy to give the Penguins control before the first period was halfway complete.

Durant, Westbrook rally OKC in Game 1 Golden St. loses home-court advantage By JANIE McCAULEY The Associated Press OAKLAND, Calif. – Kevin Durant scored 26 points and made a key 17-foot jumper with 30.7 seconds left, and the Oklahoma City Thunder handed the Golden State Warriors their first home loss of the playoffs with a 108-102 victory in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals Monday night. Russell Westbrook scored 24 of his 27 points in the second half for Oklahoma City, which trailed, 60-47, at halftime. Westbrook also had 12 assists and seven steals in the opener of the Thunder’s fourth West finals in six years. “We’ve just got to compete,” Westbrook said. “It’s going to be a tough game. It’s a tough building. They have a lot of great players on their team, but I know we’re a great team, and when we put our minds to it, tonight we didn’t play our best game and we came out with a win.” Game 2 is Wednesday night at Oracle Arena. If this one was any kind of preview of what is coming, this should be a dandy of a series between the NBA’s highest-scoring teams from the regular season. Steven Adams made a pair of free

throws for Oklahoma City with 1:01 remaining, and Klay Thompson missed a reverse lay-in moments later on the other end. MVP Stephen Curry had 26 points and a playoff career-high 10 rebounds, but the Warriors missed too many shots down the stretch. With his team down, 105-102, Steve Kerr begged for a traveling call on Westbrook at midcourt with 17.2 seconds left, with the NBA Coach of the Year signaling with his arms before going into a squat. Oklahoma City got a timeout instead. Westbrook made one free throw with 14.5 seconds to go. Thompson scored 19 of his 25 points in the first half, but shot 3 for 10 over the last two quarters. Curry’s 3-pointer to beat the halftime buzzer gave Golden State a 13-point lead at the break. Durant scored to get his team within 88-85 going into the final quarter, and then knocked down a tying 3 just 12 seconds into the fourth. Dion Waiters’ layup at 10:30 put the Thunder ahead for the first time since the opening quarter. Westbrook missed nine of his first 10 shots before finding a groove and scoring 19 points in his team’s 38-point third quarter.

MINNEAPOLIS – Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns is the unanimous winner of the NBA Rookie of the Year award. The league made the announcement Monday, giving the Wolves back-to-back honorees after forward Andrew Wiggins won the Eddie Gottlieb Trophy last season. The 7-foot Towns received all 130 first-place votes from a panel of sports Karl-Anthony writers and broad- Towns casters in the United States and Canada, joining Damian Lillard (2013), Blake Griffin (2011), David Robinson (1990) and Ralph Sampson (1984) as recent unanimous winners. New York’s Kristaps Porzingis finished second, and Denver’s Nikola Jokic was third. The first pick out of Kentucky in the 2015 draft, Towns ranked eighth in the NBA in rebounds and field-goal percentage and produced the best debut for a big man since Tim Duncan in 1998. The 20-year-old Towns averaged 18.1 points, 10.7 rebounds and 1.7 blocks, helping the Timberwolves win 13 more games than the season before. The Wolves became the first team with back-to-back winners of the award since Bob McAdoo and Ernie DiGregorio with the Buffalo Braves in 1973 and 1974. Towns was the only rookie to start all 82 games. He was named Western Conference rookie of the month in all six months the award was handed out. McMillan named Pacers coach: At Indianapolis, Larry Bird found the Indiana Pacers’ new voice on his own bench. Now Nate McMillan must show his old-school style will still resonate with today’s young players. Bird promoted the 51-year-old McMillan to head coach Monday, hoping he will change the culture inside the locker room. The decision ends the search for Frank Vogel’s replacement after less than two weeks. “We will respect the game,” McMillan said during a news conference. “What I mean by respect the game is that you mentally and physically have to prepare yourself to go out and play hard every single night.”

LOS ANGELES – The injury-riddled Los Angeles Angels are closing in on a deal to sign two-time Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum, a free agent trying to come back from hip surgery, according to a person with knowledge of the negotiations. The person spoke to The Associated Press on Monday on the condition of anonymity because no deal had been announced. Lincecum tossed 41 pitches May 6 for about three dozen scouts representing nearly every major league club in Scottsdale, Arizona, the spring training home of the San Francisco Giants. That’s the only team the 31-year-old right-hander has pitched for.

Torre: Discipline ‘obviously’ coming for Sunday’s brawl

PHOENIX – MLB chief baseball officer Joe Torre said discipline obviously is coming for those involved in Sunday’s melee between the Toronto Blue Jays and Texas Rangers, “hopefully” as soon as today. At a news conference Monday before the Arizona Diamondbacks-New York Yankees game, Torre said of the punch that the Rangers’ Roughned Odor connected with the jaw of Toronto’s Jose Bautista, “it certainly wasn’t pretty and I hate seeing that stuff.” Torre said it’s tough enough staying healthy in baseball without contributing to an incident that “could keep you out of the ball game or end your career.”

Tiger says he is ‘progressing nicely,’ no date for return

BETHESDA, Md. – Tiger Woods grimaced as he took three warmup swings after sitting in a chair for 30 minutes on a cool, blustery Monday morning at Congressional talking about his upcoming tournament. Hitting a ceremonial shot from a forward tee

on the par-3 10th hole, he chunked his first attempt into the pond short of the green. He asked for another ball. That one splashed, too. With officials from his foundation egging him on, he tried one more time. The last one cleared the pond, but not by enough. It landed on a steep bank and rolled down into the water. His efforts at Congressional – home to the Quicken Loans National, which he hosts and which benefits his foundation – put to rest most of the lingering questions about whether he’ll be ready to return to competitive golf anytime soon. “I have been practicing at home, and I’m progressing nicely. I’m hoping to play,” Woods said. “That’s the overriding question I keep hearing: ‘When are you coming back, when are you playing?’ I get it all the time. If I knew, I’d tell, you, because it’d be fun to know.”

McMillian, forward on ’72 Lakers championship team, dead at 68

LOS ANGELES – Jim McMillian, who helped the Los Angeles Lakers to a 33-game winning streak and the 1972 NBA championship as a second-year pro playing with Wilt Chamberlain and Jerry West, died Monday. He was 68. He died from complications of heart failure at a hospital in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, after being in failing health in recent months, according to his sisterin-law Denise Sheridan.

Please don’t compare Cutler to Brees VIEWS Rick Morrissey As far as I know, there isn’t a standard clause in the contracts of Bears coaches that requires them to gush about quarterback Jay Cutler. Something just happens to these guys when they hit Halas Hall. One moment, they’re soberly going about their business; the next, they’re describing Cutler as John Elway and George Washington rolled into one hard-throwing, teammate-inspiring leader. We heard it from Mike Martz. We heard it from Marc Trestman. The Bears have a new quarterbacks coach and a new receivers coach. Now we’re hearing it from them, too. “Not to slight anyone else in this league, but in terms of athletic ability, I rate him near the top, if not the top,” quarterbacks coach Dave Ragone said. “He’s an unreal athlete to me, the way he’s able to move in the pocket, extend plays, create on his own, still be a passer when he does it. It’s one of the most special talents.” “He reminds me of (Saints quarterback) Drew (Brees) with his knowledge of the offense and what he does and how he handles himself with the players,” receivers coach Curtis Johnson said. There are few people on the fence in the still-raging Cutler debate. Lots of people think he’s mediocre or worse, and lots of people think he’s terribly underappreciated. But how many people recognize the Cutler

The bullpen has struggled, and there is some uneasiness. Who are these guys? What can we say definitively about them? The starting rotation is mostly good, Chris Sale is a monster and the heavily tatted Brett Lawrie plays the crazy role well. What else? Let’s find out. The next 17 games will go a long way toward deciding whether the forward motion continues for the rest of the season. The Sox return to the Cell on Tuesday for a three-game series against the Astros, then a threegame series against the Royals. The Astros, a playoff team last season, are in last place in the AL West with a 1524 record. The reigning World Series champion Royals are 18-19. Better get those teams while they’re down.

BEARS NOTES

Training camp schedule announced for Bourbonnais By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@profootballweekly.com The Bears will report to Bourbonnais on July 27 for their 15th training camp at Olivet Nazarene University. Training camp is shorter this year, however, because the Bears will have joint practices in mid-August in Foxborough, Massachusetts, with the Patriots. The first training camp practice is July 28. The first practice in pads is July 30. The Bears will hold a total of 10 practices in Bourbonnais, closing camp Aug. 9 before their Aug. 11 preseason opener against the Broncos. On Aug. 6, the Bears will practice at Soldier Field for the annual Meijer Family Fest.

On Aug. 15 and 16, the Bears will practice in Foxborough with the Patriots before playing the Pats on Aug. 18. It’ll be a reunion for former Bears/current Patriots Martellus Bennett and Shea McClellin. Last year, the Bears had joint practices with the Colts in Indianapolis. Coming and going: The Bears signed four tryout players from this past weekend’s rookie minicamp: receiver Kieren Duncan, punter Ben LeCompte, defensive lineman Kenton Adeyemi and offensive lineman Donovan Williams. To make room, the Bears waived nose tackle Bruce Gaston, tight end Marcus Lucas, wide receiver Nathan Palmer and center Dan Buchholz. Duncan ranked sixth in Division II

with a 30.1-yard kickoff-return average last season at Colorado State-Pueblo. He also led the team with 36 catches for 622 yards and had six touchdown catches. Duncan ran a 4.25 40-yard dash in a predraft workout. LeCompte went to Barrington High School and was a first-team All-American at the FCS level last season at North Dakota State. He averaged 45.8 yards per punt, which ranked second in FCS. He also kicked off for the Bison. Adeyemi played in 30 games for UConn in his career. Last season, he had 28 tackles, two sacks and 3.5 tackles for loss. Williams started 25 games at guard the past two seasons at Louisiana-Lafayette after playing junior college ball at Blinn College.
