TODAY’S TALKER

Mars is within reach, German tapped for space command says

By DANIEL NIEMANN and FRANK JORDANS The Associated Press

COLOGNE, Germany – Humans could set foot on Mars within decades if they wanted to, according to the German astronaut who has been tapped to become his country’s first commander of the International Space Station.

Alexander Gerst said the space station offers a unique opportunity to test the technology needed to explore other planets, especially if its lifetime is extended beyond 2020.

“It is very clear to me that those manned missions to the moon and Mars, human missions, will happen,” he told The Associated Press in an interview at the European Space Agency’s astronaut training center in Cologne, Germany.

“But we need the decision as a society. And once we do that we are ready to go, basically.”

Gerst said the recent Hollywood movie “The Martian” – starring Matt Damon as an astronaut fending for himself on the red planet – offers a realistic glimpse of the not-too-distant future.

“It shows us what we can possibly reach in a few years’ time,” he said. “I’m actually quite

excited by the fact that us humans, we could fly to Mars, and maybe you and I will live to see it.”

The 40-year-old volcanologist – an expert on volcanoes, not the planet Vulcan from “Star Trek” – is scheduled to take command of the space station in May 2018, four years after his first mission, it was announced Wednesday.

NASA aims to send astronauts to Mars in the 2030s. Astronauts have been living continuously aboard the 250-mile-high International Space Station since 2000. This month, the space station hit the milestone of 100,000 orbits around Earth – the equivalent of 10 round trips to Mars, or almost one way to Neptune.

Following NASA’s longest human spaceflight yet, American Scott Kelly returned in March from a 340-day voyage with Russian Mikhail Kornienko. Scientists hope the results from wide-ranging medical tests will offer guidance on how the body will cope during the much longer Mars expeditions.

Gerst will be the second European Space Agency astronaut in charge of the orbital outpost, after Belgian pilot Frank De Winne, reflecting Europe’s growing interest in space.

PROGRAM ‘OPENING DOORS’ MCC’s manufacturing management courses seeing more demand

By ALLISON GOODRICH

agoodrich@shawmedia.com Looking at the increased popularity of one program at McHenry County College, it seems those in manufacturing are making a comeback.

Specifically, a growing number of people are returning to school to take advantage of the Manufacturing Management AAS Fast Track program, which aims to propel students to positions higher on both the chain of command and the pay scale.

Enrollment in the manufacturing management courses has seen a dramatic increase, climbing 86 percent in five years, according to MCC. This spring, enrollment was at 309 students compared with the 166 who enrolled in spring 2011, officials said.

Although not all students current-

ly are working at a manufacturing company, a majority of enrollees already have a foundation of experience to build upon, said Heather Zaccagnini, an MCC instructor of applied technology and manufacturing management. With the average age of Fast Track students hovering close to 30 years old, many of them have spent time in production and are ready to step into a leadership role.

“This is the program that addresses companies’ needs to fill leadership positions,” Zaccagnini said. “A lot of manufacturers want to take the people they already have and send them through the program.”

About 80 percent of the students in the program are company-sponsored by current employers, she said,

Ill. comptroller talks budget woes at Family Alliance visit

By CAITLIN SWIECA

cswieca@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Speaking to a group of Family Alliance program participants who were enjoying an afternoon snack, Illinois Comptroller Leslie Geissler Munger introduced herself along with her predicament.

“I control the state’s checkbook,” Geissler Munger said, “which is killin’ me these days.”

Geissler Munger made a stop at the agency’s Huntley location Wednesday afternoon as part of her effort to visit social service agencies around the state that have been affected by the state budget impasse, which is nearing the one-year mark.

Foundation, a Lincolnshire agency that helps adults with developmental disabilities, Geissler Munger said she understands how vital that social services are to communities.

“They provide service to those most vulnerable, at one-fifth of what it would cost the state to provide that same service, and it’s in the community where that individual needs help,” Geissler Munger said. “We ought to be looking at ways to help these organizations continue doing what they do.”

Geissler Munger met with Larson, McHenry County Mental Health Board Director Scott Block and other local social service officials for a tour of the Huntley facility and a discussion about the impact of the budget crisis.

Illinois is facing a $7 billion backlog of bills and another $2 billion in bills that are unpaid because there is no legal mechanism in place to pay them. That $2 billion includes services for the elderly, homeless, drug and alcohol abuse and other programs, Geissler Munger said.

Illinois Comptroller Leslie Geissler Munger (right) visits with Family Alliance participant Mary Flores during a tour Wednesday of the Family Alliance Comprehensive Care Center in Huntley.

Munger was meeting with nonprofit leaders, including Family Alliance Executive Director Kim Larson, to discuss the continuing challenges of paying the state’s bills without a budget and the impact it is having on the state’s social services network..

Block said directors of McHenry County’s social service agencies, almost all of which have been affected, have shared operational and funding ideas during their monthly meetings.

“The concern, I don’t think, is complete shutting of doors, but it’s a gradual cutting of services and creating a lack of access,” Block said.

Geissler Munger said she will continue to stay in touch with social service agencies and prioritize whatever payments she can while using her platform

to urge lawmakers to pass a budget.

Although she said organizations she has visited are doing a good job making do with limited funding, she recognizes it is difficult for leaders to plan without knowing how much money they will get or when it might come.

“As people with hearts, it’s a moral issue, I think, to take care of people that need help,” Geissler Munger said. “But it’s also economically better for the taxpayers of Illinois to help nonprofits in our state that fund those services.”

D-155 board approves 2-year extension for superintendent

By ALLISON GOODRICH

agoodrich@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Johnnie Thomas will be the superintendent of Crystal Lake-based Community High School District 155 through school year 201920 after an extension and a number of other contract changes were approved with a split vote Tuesday night.

After a 4-3 vote, two years were tacked on to Thomas’ contract, which originally went through 2017-18. Encompassed in the board motion were three additional items: the elimination of the performance bonus package; 2 percent annual increases starting in 2016-17, up from the 1.5 percent he has received thus far; and 7.5 more reimbursable vacation days, or up to 12.5 total.

An earlier 6-1 vote acknowledged that the superintendent had met his performance goals after an annual board evaluation was done. Member Adam Guss voted in dissension and was not immediately available for comment Wednesday on the matter.

Guss, Rosemary Kurtz and Amy Blazier voted against the extension and three changes; Ann Somers, Dave

Secrest, Gary Oberg and Board President Ted Wagner voted in support.

Kurtz noted that the original request was for an extension to 2021.

“I believe we still have time to make a decision like this,” Guss said during Tuesday’s meeting. “I don’t think that it has to be done right now.”

Blazier agreed, saying she was not ready to make a decision on an extension, but also said to Thomas, “It’s nothing that you haven’t done.”

Thomas said afterward his last contract extension was approved in the same time frame, a couple years before the Johnnie existing contract ended, Thomas and that the purpose was “to ensure that there’s some continuity in leadership moving forward.”

“We brought [Thomas] into the district at an absolute difficult, difficult time in union negotiations, with economic situations, and he handled things terrific,” Wagner said. “And I have to tell you, it’s been a pleasure working with you, Dr. Thomas.”

Thomas said his move to prompt the

board to eliminate his performance bonus package was to avoid the issues and concerns that have ensued whenever the bonus has been up for discussion.

“The board pays me well to do the job that I’m doing, and I’m here for kids, so if that was an issue that causes them any dilemma, I thought it best to just eliminate it,” Thomas said.

Under his contract last year, he received the maximum $14,000 bonus after his evaluation and this year was up for a possible $16,000. The maximum bonus amount before this change increased by $2,000 with each consecutive year. His base salary was set at $184,730 a year before annual increases.

Somers called the elimination of the bonuses a “big thing,” saying Thomas was giving up “$16,000 that he was really guaranteed as long as he met his goals.”

The board last week heard from a few residents who questioned whether Thomas was deserving of a bonus, and a few people brought up the Crystal Lake South High School bleachers debacle.

One person Tuesday voiced similar concerns during the public comment portion.

Bond reduced in drug-induced homicide case

Bill Hartmann

Man accused in suspected morphine overdose death in Wonder Lake

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A McHenry County judge granted a bond reduction for a Crystal Lake man charged with drug-induced homicide in connection with a suspected morphine overdose death in Wonder Lake.

Jessie A. Brown has been in custody on $250,000 bond at the McHenry County Jail since his arrest in April. He was arrested following a monthlong investigation of the death of 20-year-old Wonder Lake resident Ashley M. Mancuso and charged with drug-induced homicide, a Class X felony.

McHenry County Sheriff’s police were dispatched March 25 to the 7800 block of Balsam Drive, Wonder Lake, and said they found evidence indicating that the 20-year-old may have ingested

morphine before she died. The case was turned over to the McHenry County Sheriff’s Police Narcotics Task Force, which includes the Lake in the Hills Police Department.

After weighing several different factors, McHenry County Judge Michael Feetterer said Wednesday he would reduce Brown’s bond to $125,000.

George Killis, Brown’s attorney, argued in court that his client is not a flight risk because of his lack of any prior crimJessie A. inal history, local ties Brown to the community and strong family support system. He also said Brown already has a job secured in Lakemoor upon his release.

He said his client also is willing to follow additional recommendations if he

was able to post bond, which could include a set curfew, random drug testing, a drug/alcohol evaluation and a requirement to maintain employment.

Assistant State’s Attorney Dave Johnston said Brown reportedly was acquainted with Mancuso and that the two previously were in a relationship.

Johnston said Brown allegedly told police he sold drugs to Mancuso before the March incident, and that this incident – in which Brown allegedly sold five 30 milligram morphine pills to Mancuso – was not just a one-time occurrence.

“He preyed on someone who deserved more from him,” Johnston said.

Killis said his client had no prior knowledge of what happened to Mancuso and “broke down” when he found out she had died.

Brown will next appear in court May 25.

WOODSTOCK – Before the McHenry crash that ultimately claimed her life, Amy Thornton had been on an excursion with her husband of nearly 19 years discussing college plans for their son who was about to graduate from Woodstock North High School.

She was in a coma during the graduation and died a night later after being removed from life support, her husband Mike said Wednesday.

Amy Thornton was 42. She leaves behind her husband and two sons, Zach, 18, and Michael, 14. A nurse for 20 years, Amy Thornton’s friends and family are remembering her as a kind woman with an infectious smile who was able to see the good in every situation.

“She could look past any of my faults,” Mike Thornton said. “She saw past all of it and made me a better person. She was my best friend.”

McHenry police said a 2002 Ford Taurus traveling north in the 2500 block of Route 31 lost control for an unknown reason and struck the couple’s 2007 Harley-Davidson Road Glide as they trav-

died just after 11:30 p.m.

In the days after her death, Zach Thornton said he’s leaning on memories such as the time he was about 4 years old and she made him an ice cream cone Halloween costume complete with a cherry on top. Then, there are the everyday memories of her smile or their daily conversations.

“She would always ask how my day was no matter how bad or good her day was,” Zach Thornton said. “And even when she had a bad day, she was never negative. She always thought tomorrow will be better.”

The family has not made plans for a memorial or funeral yet, as Mike Thornton remains in the hospital. Co-workers from Black Diamond Plumbing & Mechanical are remodeling the family’s bathroom to accommodate a wheelchair, which he will need to use as he rehabilitates.

Anyone who would like to support the family can visit the GoFundMe.com account that family friend Bob Conard started to help the family’s medical bills and living expenses. As of Wednesday, the account collected more than $10,800 in donations.

D-300 mulls new schedule model

480 S. US Highway 45 Grayslake, IL 60030

Officials looking at options for common late start, early release Heid said. “Moving both elementary and secondary schools to a common schedule of either early release or late start K-12 would allow for much-needed articulation.”

Apart from the option to keep the current model, the other choices all suggested a reduction in late-start/ early-release dates and involved either both elementary and secondary schools having only early-release days or elementary keeping early release while secondary levels having late starts.

Fred Heid Implementing late starts at the elementary level, Heid said, would burden parents with finding child care before school.

The superintendent’s options, which he said were simply examples of how to structure professional development days, reduced the number of late-start/ early-release dates to either eight or 10 days a year.

According to survey results, a slight majority of parents said there should

agoodrich@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Algonquin-based Community Unit School District 300 is considering a move to a new late-start/ early-release model next year after surveying district parents.

During the most recent school board meeting, Superintendent Fred Heid detailed the results of a parent survey about late-start/early-release days, which he said are used for professional development throughout the year.

He also presented the school board with a number of options going forward based on survey results.

The current model – 15 early-release dates at the elementary level and 15 late-start days at the middle and high school level – was said to have caused scheduling conflicts for students and their families, according to a statement from Heid.

“As such, we want to balance our needs for professional development with the needs of our stakeholders,”

only be zero to four early-release dates during a school year; a large majority said early-release dates should be on the same days across all schools; and another large majority said there would be less concern if supervision was provided during early-release days at the secondary level.

Heid emphasized the need for more than just the contractual four half-days that teachers use to complete report cards.

“The reality is the instruction and art of teaching has become a very data-driven process,” Heid said. “We’ve been far more systematic in our approach to instruction and problem-solving, and our district is a very data-rich district. However, more time is needed for our staff to dis-aggregate data and use it to inform their instructional decision-making.”

He told board members to make suggestions about preferred approaches within the week, and Heid said he would bring more options or a recommendation during one of the next couple board meetings.

Crash kills man, injures Garage fire causes $35,000 2 former Bears players in damage; no one injured

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com BARRINGTON HILLS – Police have identified the Barrington Hills man who died after a crash Monday, as well as the two former Chicago Bears players who were injured.

Salvatorre J. DiMucci, 35, was driving a 2015 Mercedes Benz east on Goose Lake Drive west of Brinker Road about 9:45 p.m. when the vehicle left the road, struck a tree and crashed into a ditch, according to a news release from the Barrington Hills Police Department.

DiMucci was transported to St. Alexius Medical Center in Hoffman Estates, where police said he later

died.

Police identified the two 30-year-old passengers as former Bears backup quarterback Caleb Hanie, of Rockwall, Texas, and Agoura Hills, California, resident Joseph LaRocque, a linebacker who appeared in 14 games for the Bears between 2008 and 2009.

The Barrington Countryside Fire Protection District transported Hanie and LaRocque to Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington with injuries that were not life-threatening, police said.

The Barrington Hills Police Department, the Lake County Major Crash Assistance Team and the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office are investigating the crash.

By ALLISON GOODRICH

agoodrich@shawmedia.com WAUCONDA – A garage fire that originated in a plastic trash container caused about $35,000 in damage, according to the Wauconda Fire District.

The district was dispatched at 5:11 p.m. to 521 Nancy Court for a structure fire, Lt. Pat Kane said.

Upon arrival, Kane said, firefighters dropped a single line to put out the fire after seeing a neighbor trying to extinguish the blaze with a garden hose.

“The whole west side of the garage was on fire when I got there,” Kane said, adding it was a three-car garage attached to a one-story, single-family home.

A 14-year-old boy in the home with the family dog was “oblivious” to the fire until another family member returned after work and found it, he said.

Kane said no one was injured, and there was no extension into the house, apart from some lingering smoke odor.

It was determined the fire originated from within a plastic trash container along the outside of the garage, but the cause of the fire still was under investigation.

The Lake Zurich Fire and Rescue Department, Round Lake Fire Department, Nunda Rural Fire Protection District, Barrington Countryside Fire Protection District and Barrington Fire Department assisted either at the scene or with station coverage, Kane said.

Sex offender resentenced for not disclosing social media account

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A McHenry County judge resentenced a Woodstock sex offender to prison after he did not seek recommended treatment and failed to disclose a social media account to police while registering as a sexual predator.

Corion V. Simpson, 20, was originally sentenced in June 2015 to spend 135 days in McHenry County Jail and four years of reporting probation after he admitted to his involvement in raping a 15-year-old girl. He also was required to undergo sex offender counseling and register for life as a sex offender.

Assistant State’s Attorney Sharyl Eisenstein said Simpson brought the 15-year-old girl to a party in December 2013, where he and three others raped her, while a fourth recorded the incident. The video later was placed on Facebook and used to intimidate the girl, Eisenstein said.

After his initial sentencing, authorities said, Simpson did not follow treatment recommendations and was arrested in December of last year after authorities said he maintained a social media application without disclosing it upon registering as a sexual predator. Detectives said they found a social media profile Dec. 17 that Simpson used a number of times.

McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather resentenced Simpson to four years in prison on Corion V. the aggravated criminal Simpson sexual abuse charge and two years on the charge of unlawful failure to register as a sex offender.

Those sentences are set to run concurrently, she said.

Prather said Simpson initially was given “the deal of a lifetime” and decided to do nothing with the opportunity.

“What have you done in the last year?” Prather asked the defendant,

adding that she didn’t believe Simpson took the charges against him seriously.

Simpson said he apologized for his actions and wanted to move on from his past mistakes.

Eisenstein said the defendant was given a chance at probation and, instead of taking that opportunity, he continued to make poor decisions. She also said Simpson has “complete disregard for following the law.”

Angelo Mourelatos, Simpson’s attorney, said his client has since accepted responsibility for his actions. He also said his client has a support system of his mother, Sharonda Love, and other family members who are willing to help him get back on track.

Love said she reached out to several employment agencies and picked up counseling brochures to ensure her son had options if he were to remain on probation and return home.

“I want him to get the help and counseling that he needs,” Love said in court.

“[People in manufacturing] are not only aging, but you also see an increase in the technology and innovation and automation and complexity of these manufacturing operations, which is creating a need for that next generation to be even more trained and highly skilled in a lot of areas.”

Continued from page A3 adding it’s a practice that has been on the rise in recent years after it fell off during the recession.

For years, a palpable skills gap has been concerning manufacturers nationwide, and the problem is far from its end, according to the 2015 U.S. Skills Gap Report. Published by the Manufacturing Institute and Deloitte, the report projects there will be about 3.5 million manufacturing jobs over the next decade, but the skills gap is expected to result in about 2 million of those positions being left unfilled.

Pam Cumpata, president of the McHenry County Economic Development Corp., said filling the gap is just as important here in McHenry County as anywhere else.

She added more than 500 manufacturers are in the county, and according to the 2015 McHenry County Labor Report, manufacturing represents the largest industry sector, employing more than 14,800 people. “[People in manufacturing] are not only aging, but you also see an increase in the technology and innovation and automation and complexity of these manufacturing operations, which is creating a need for that next generation to be even more trained and highly skilled in a lot of areas,” Cumpata said.

Trustees were split, 3-3, on the issue Tuesday, but the Board of Zoning, Planning and Appeals’ negative recommendation in January required a supermajority of four trustee votes to approve the extension until 2019.

Trustees Jim Cosler, Kim Covelli and Jeff Kraus voted against the proposal, and Ellen McAlpine, David Chapman and Rick Dudek voted in favor. Village President Mark Kownick expressed support for the extension but was not allowed to vote because of the negative zoning board recommendation.

Cosler said he felt both sides of the argument were equally valid but sided with the residents, whose concerns included property values along with dust and noise from the site.

“The real issue here is trust – trust in your elected officials,” Cosler said.

“There’s nobody on this board that understands that more than I do. When you come down to that stance of trust and doing the right thing, I plan on voting no to restore the trust.”

The vote was applauded by about 20 residents of Fox Trails subdivision who attended the meeting. The negative vote

leaves the future of the mining site uncertain. The current agreement stipulates that the company must pay a $100,000 fee per month for mining past June 1, although Village Administrator Chris Clark said Meyer Material has argued it only would need to pay the fee in months when the site is being actively mined.

Meyer representative Randi Wille said the company likely would extend mining for several months this year to fulfill current customer commitments but was unsure how much longer it might continue.

Clark said the contract, which was written in 2008, had other holes in it, including a lack of a specific plan for how the site must be turned over to the village. The agreement said restoration of the land must be finished by June 1, 2018.

The rejected proposal defined the grading work Meyer would have to do to allow for a future passive-use park on the site and stipulated that Meyer would pay a total of $2.5 million in fees. Dudek, the only trustee who was on the board that passed the 2008 agreement, acknowledged the contract’s shortcomings and said he voted yes to correct them.

“It was a crappy agreement. We did not properly plan for how it was going to be turned over,” Dudek said. “This agreement we’re talking about now rectifies a mistake that was made in 2008. ... I feel, for a relatively short extension, this community will get a much better product than what will happen if we do not extend it.”

Thousands protest call to change labor laws

By ASHLEY LISENBY

bring the measure for an override vote because he is confident there is enough support in the House to do so. The proposal needs 71 House and 36 Senate votes to override Rauner’s decision.

Coalition co-chair and Chicago Federation of Labor President Jorge Ramirez said Rauner’s proposals

“would diminish wages, destroy worker protections, and completely wipe out what is left of the middle class here in Illinois.”

Rauner has made curbing the power of unions one of his top priorities while in office, saying changes are needed to improve the state’s business climate

and save money.

The Rauner administration has reached contract agreements with at least 17 unions that represent more than 5,000 state workers, including a recent four-year collective bargaining agreement with the Illinois Federation of Teachers.

Rauner said the agreement “is a testament to what can be accomplished when both sides are willing to compromise and negotiate in good faith.”

Democratic leaders House Speaker Michael Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton spoke briefly at the rally, assuring the crowd they are supporting unions and their interests during what Madigan called the “epic struggle against Gov. Rauner.”

“The governor thinks you make too much money,” Cullerton said. “That’s our problem. So all I can tell you is, we’re gonna stay tough; we’re gonna fight for your interests and the middle class in the next two weeks.”

However, Illinois Chamber of Commerce President Todd Maisch said the state’s budget crisis is the result of years of unbalanced budgets. He said the way to solve the problem is by implementing “pro-growth reforms,” which include changing the workers’ compensation system, freezing property taxes and tort reform.

union-weakening reforms. And while a resolution to the budget stalemate remains elusive, those who support taxes on sugary drinks and the beverage industry are preparing for a possible fight on an idea that pops up frequently nationwide.

The proposal in Illinois would impose a penny-per-ounce tax on distributors of bottled sugar-sweetened beverages, syrups or powders. Estimates vary on how much the tax would bring in, from $375 million to $600 million a year.

Supporters of the proposal want the question placed on the November ballot.

Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD – Thousands of union supporters from across Illinois rallied in front of the state Capitol building Wednesday to protest Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner’s call for changes to collective bargaining policies.

The protesters called for an end to a nearly yearlong stalemate on a state budget, and for pay raises and a new contract for the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the state’s largest union representing Illinois workers.

The march, organized by a coalition of unions, Illinois Working Together, came days after Rauner vetoed a bill that would let an arbitrator settle state-employee wages and working conditions if talks stalled. The governor and AFSCME are making their cases before the state labor board to determine if those negotiations are at an impasse. The contract with the union, which represents 36,000 state workers, expired June 30.

Rauner said sending negotiations to an arbitrator would favor the union and strip away his power to represent taxpayers on a new labor agreement with state workers.

The bill’s sponsor, Democratic Rep. Emanuel Chris Welch, said he plans to

Amid budget deficit, Illinois mulls taxing sugary drinks

SPRINGFIELD – Lawmakers scrambling to find money to fix Illinois’ multibillion-dollar deficit are looking to sugary drinks as one potential source of revenue.

Taxing distributors of sodas, energy drinks and other sugary beverages was among the revenue-generating ideas a group of lawmakers proposed to Gov. Bruce Rauner and other legislative leaders last week to try to finally end a nearly yearlong impasse that’s left the state without a budget.

Illinois is facing a $5 billion-and-growing deficit. Lawmakers also are considering raising the state income tax from 3.75 percent to 4.85 percent and making budget cuts as part of an overall deal Rauner wants contingent on getting pro-business,

Police find $1M of heroin in traffic stop of Chicago man

STRATFORD, Conn. – Connecticut State Police troopers have seized about 28 pounds of heroin worth an estimated $1 million after pulling over a Chicago man.

A state police spokeswoman said troopers were conducting traffic enforcement on Route 15 in Stratford on Tuesday when they pulled over a car for a moving violation.

After the troopers learned that narcotics might be in the vehicle, a drug-sniffing dog was called in to assist in the search and found the packaged heroin.

The driver, 50-year-old Jose Adorno, was charged with possession of heroin with intent to sell.

Intelligence: Hackers spying on campaigns

By DEB RIECHMANN The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – The United States sees evidence of hackers, possibly working for foreign governments, snooping on the presidential candidates, the nation’s intelligence chief said Wednesday. Government officials are assisting the campaigns to tighten security as the race for the White House intensifies.

The activity follows the pattern set in the last two presidential elections. Hacking was rampant in 2008, according to U.S. intelligence officials, and both President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney were targets of Chinese cyberattacks four years later. Nevertheless, cyber experts say Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton’s campaign networks aren’t secure enough to eliminate the risk.

“We’ve already had some indications” of hacking, James Clapper, director of national intelligence, said Wednesday at the Bipartisan Policy Center in Washington. He said the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security were helping educate the campaigns.

Of the attacks, Clapper predicted, “we’ll probably have more.”

The revelation comes after Clapper’s office released a document this month saying foreign intelligence services tracked the 2008 presidential election cycle “like no other.” The document was in a slide show used to warn incoming Obama administration officials that their new jobs could make them prey for spies.

Eight years ago, foreign intelligence services “met with campaign contacts and staff, used human source networks for policy insights, exploited technology to get otherwise sensitive data, engaged in perception management to influence policy,” it said. “This exceeded traditional lobbying and public diplomacy.”

Jonathan Lampe with InfoSec Institute, a private information security company in Chicago, said security hasn’t improved significantly since then.

In October, he evaluated the security of 16 candidates’ websites and wrote a pair of reports. Using the reconnaissance skills of a casual hacker, Lampe pulled full lists of site user names and technologies used on most sites. In some cases, he discovered which directories were accessible from the Internet and which weren’t. He learned the software products Clinton’s campaign used from a job posting soliciting a computer-wise staffer.

“Everybody was sitting with their pants down and by the time we looked at the sites in March, everybody had made fixes,” he said.

But countries are probably still snooping, he said: “The sites were open enough back in October that anyone who grabbed the information then and wanted to use it, could still use it now.”

Some threats are publicly known.

The international group of activists and hackers Anonymous has declared cyberwar on Donald Trump, urging supporters to take down his website and expose private information.

BRIEF 1 dead, dozens hurt as 2 powerful aftershocks rattle Ecuador

QUITO, Ecuador – Two powerful earthquakes jolted Ecuador on Wednesday, causing one death and injuring dozens.

Neither appeared to cause serious damage, but the government decided to cancel school nationwide as a precaution. In Guayaquil, office workers fled into the streets after the second quake.

Both tremors were centered along the Pacific coast near the epicenter of last month’s magnitude-7.8 quake and rattled homes as far away as the capital, Quito.

Wednesday’s initial shake was a magnitude-6.7 quake that struck before 3 a.m., and that was followed by a 6.8 tremor around midday.

President Rafael Correa said one person died in Manabi province in confusing circumstances that still were being investigated. At least 85 people were injured, two seriously.

“These sorts of aftershocks are normal, but that doesn’t mean they’re not scary and can cause damage,” Correa said in a TV address after the first quake. He said aftershocks of this magnitude were normal for up to two months after a major quake.

Democrats, defiant Sanders on the brink as campaign nears end

By ERICA WERNER and KEN THOMAS The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – The awkward embrace between Bernie Sanders and the Democratic Party may be nearing a breaking point.

Leading Democrats are growing increasingly vocal in their concerns about the White House hopeful’s continued candidacy, and whether he and his legions of enthusiastic supporters ultimately will unite behind Hillary Clinton in a general election against Donald Trump.

For his part, Sanders has sharpened his critique of the party. He said it would be “sad and tragic” if Democrats don’t stop relying on big money, and he is assailing Clinton for her dependence on wealthy donors. Clinton backers grumble that such comments can only help Republicans, belying Sanders’ claims that he’ll work tirelessly to ensure Trump doesn’t end up the president.

The tone on both sides is worsening after last weekend’s fracas at the

Nevada Democratic Convention. Furious over rules they claimed favored Clinton, a group of Sanders supporters shouted obscenities, brandished chairs and threatened and harassed the party chairwoman. And after Democratic officials including Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada pressed Sanders to denounce the events, Sanders defiantly asserted that his supporters were treated unfairly.

The tenor of the Sanders’ statement Bernie disturbed DemocratSanders ic leaders. They’re worried that as the primary process nears its end, Sanders may resist the graceful exit that Democrats expect of him and instead heed advisers and supporters pressing him to maintain the fight, perhaps all the way to the Democratic convention in Philadelphia in July.

“Everything our families care about is at stake here,” said Demo-

cratic Sen. Barbara Boxer of California, who said she feared for her safety after being booed and shouted down at the Nevada convention.

Boxer said in an interview that she spoke with Sanders this week, and found her Vermont colleague very upset, insisting “my people wouldn’t do this.”

“I just told him, ‘Bernie, you need to take control of this,’ ” Boxer said.

Boxer and other influential Democrats cited Clinton’s handling of her bitter loss to Barack Obama eight years ago as a model. Then, Clinton washed away a season of bad blood by conceding and throwing her support behind the eventual president.

“The math didn’t add up for her then and it doesn’t add up for Bernie now,” Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow of Michigan said.

Vice President Joe Biden gently chastised Sanders, saying he should be more aggressive in speaking out if his supporters behave as badly as they did in Nevada, but expressing confidence the party would unify.

Trump: Business booming since his presidential run

By JEFF HORWITZ and CHAD DAY The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Donald Trump has told the government his myriad businesses have flourished with rising revenues since his improbable political success, according to financial documents released Wednesday.

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee said revenue at his businesses grew by $190 million over the past 17 months, and he had $557 million in earned income.

The Federal Election Commission released the personal financial documents that Trump filed with the agency. They provide an overview of the billionaire’s assets and revenues and his roles with hundreds of corporate shell companies.

Trump so far has declined to release his tax returns, making it difficult to confirm financial details. The filing also shows that Trump has invested in some of the companies that he uses as punching bags on the campaign trail.

The 104-page filing provided lit-

tle evidence that Trump’s combative campaign hurt his business prospects, despite regular talk of boycotts early in his campaign.

Although the disclosure overlaps with one he filed last year – making straight comparisons difficult – revenues from his golf resort businesses are up, with Trump reporting $306 million in revenues from his courses around the world.

About $132 million of that came from Trump’s course in Doral, Florida, up from $49 million in revenue the year before.

The Mar-a-Lago club, a Trump vacation property and private club that has been a regular backdrop for campaign events, also saw a big jump. It reported $29 million in revenues, far more than the $16 million reported in Trump’s filing last year.

The Miss Universe Pageant, which Trump sold after his comments on Mexican immigrants led to a dispute with TV networks, went for $49 million. That was far more than the $5 million to $25 million the pageant was listed as worth on his financial disclosures from last year.

Voted Best Caterer in McHenry County The Best: Banquet Facility

Banquets & Catering

• Thursday, May 19, 2016

WASHINGTON – The Republican-led House voted convincingly Wednesday to approve a $602 billion defense policy bill after rejecting attempts by Democrats to close the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and to repeal the war powers President Barack Obama relies on to fight the Islamic State.

The legislation, which authorizes military spending for the fiscal year beginning Oct. 1, seeks to halt a decline in the combat readiness of the U.S. armed forces by purchasing more weapons and prohibiting further cuts in troop levels. But in a 17-page statement on the policy bill, the White House detailed its opposition to numerous provisions and said Obama would veto the legislation if it reached his desk.

The bill, approved 277-147, must be reconciled with a version the Senate is expected to consider by month’s end.

Republicans shot down an amendment by Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., to strike parts of the bill that renew a longstanding ban on moving Guantanamo detainees to the U.S. The embargo has kept Obama from fulfilling a campaign pledge to shutter the facility.

The White House said the restrictions interfere with the executive branch’s authority to decide when and where to prosecute prisoners.

The House soundly defeated an amendment authored by Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., to revoke a 2001 authorization that Congress gave President George W. Bush to attack any countries or groups involved in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Obama is relying on that nearly 15-year-old authority to send U.S. troops into combat against the Islamic State.

Lee argued it’s long past time for Congress to grant new war powers that specifically approve the nearly twoyear-old campaign.

“I am extremely disappointed that my colleagues left a blank check for endless war on the books,” she said.

But opponents of her amendment said no new authorization should be granted until Obama produces a coherent strategy for defeating the extremist group. Rep. Ed Royce, R-Calif., the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said Obama has all the authority he needs and Lee’s amendment would “unilaterally end the fight” against the Islamic State.

The bill included a provision that Democrats said would overturn an executive order issued by Obama that bars discrimination against LGBT employees by federal contractors.

Rep. Adam Smith of Washington, the top Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, called the measure “taxpayer-funded discrimination against LGBT individuals” and cited it as one the reasons he refused to support the bill.

But Republicans said the measure is primarily a restatement of part of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. “It’s one paragraph. That’s it,” said Rep. Mac Thornberry, R-Texas, the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee.

“I just get this feeling personally that there may be those who are just looking for an excuse to vote against the bill.”

Smith also said Republicans used a “procedural trick” to strip a provision that would have required women to sign up for a potential military draft. They replaced it with a measure to study whether the Selective Service is even needed at a time when the armed forces get plenty of qualified volunteers, making the possibility of a draft remote.

OUR VIEW

TSA delays unacceptable Here’s something to ponder if you find yourself one of the countless air travelers who will waste hours waiting in security lines at America’s airports this summer: How many more aspects of public life should the federal government be asked to run?

The federal govFor the record ernment took over airport security from Expect long delays while private contractors in going through security at the aftermath of the terror attacks of Sept. Chicago-area airports this 11, 2001, and they summer travel season. haven’t done a very good job at it.

In 2012, the federal Transportation Security Agency was criticized after it was found that passengers had carried loaded guns through security and onto planes. In 2015, the TSA’s acting director was reassigned after banned items got past screeners in 67 out of 70 tests conducted at U.S. airports.

So now the agency has presumably traded one type of ineffectiveness for another. The TSA’s response to the situation: Be patient.

On Friday, federal Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson announced he had a 10-point plan to cut down on wait times, then told America that during the peak summer travel season, things would not get better.

Turns out that federal officials and Congress thought that the TSA PreCheck program would cut down on the need for security screeners. That assumption has proved false, and now the flying public is suffering.

Indeed, on Sunday, security lines were so long that several people had to spend the night on cots at O’Hare Airport after hundreds of would-be travelers missed their flights. The traveling public has no recourse other than to post photos and videos on social media.

Air carriers and their leaders are frustrated at the situation, and even local government officials such as Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel have called for the feds to fix the situation.

If this is the way the federal government handles airport security, why should we trust them to be more involved in any other aspects of our daily life?

Why should we want the federal bureaucracy more involved in our health care system? How is it a good idea to give the federal government a larger role in higher education?

There’s little doubt that these areas would become less responsive and less effective with big government in charge, just as we’re seeing with airport security now.

ANOTHER VIEW

Moving out of poverty in America Millions of poor Americans are stuck in places where they and their children are all too likely to remain in poverty. What can be done to improve their prospects?

Historically, mobility has been one of the U.S. economy’s greatest strengths. When people found themselves in a place with few opportunities, they moved. This is no longer so true. Increasingly, the poorest Americans seem trapped. The result is that poverty gets more entrenched.

Imagine having no access to good education, health care or job opportunities -- imagine not even knowing anybody who does.

Poor children do better when they move to places with less poverty, less crime, higher-performing schools and more two-parent families.

Yet it’s hard and getting harder for many poor families to improve their opportunities by moving. One big reason: People in desirable neighborhoods aren’t eager to have them. Landlords set

source-of-income requirements that disqualify people who receive federal housing subsidies. Zoning rules stipulate minimum lot sizes or maximum building heights to prevent the construction of affordable housing.

Another obstacle is the design of many government programs.

Medicaid, food stamps and temporary assistance are all tied to the states where recipients reside.

People who move have to reapply, and manage without support in the meantime. Even federal housing subsidies, which are technically portable, are administered in such a way that moving is discouraged.

On zoning, a landmark 2015 Supreme Court decision may point the way: The court ruled that the Fair Housing Act prohibits policies that discriminate, even unintentionally, against minority groups – the same groups that typically find it hardest to move.

This gives the federal government leverage to insist that states and

municipalities strive to improve mobility. And this, in turn, could help restore the market’s ability to provide housing in places where it’s most needed.

Safety-net benefits need to be genuinely portable, and housing subsidies should be designed to promote mobility.

Some of this will require money, so funding priorities must also change. As of 2014, U.S. households with an income of $200,000 or more received an average annual subsidy (largely through the tax deduction on mortgage interest) of more than $6,000.

Households with an income below $20,000 received less than $1,500.

And only a quarter of the households that qualify for housing vouchers actually receive them.

The U.S. needs to renew its commitment to mobility and opportunity. That will require greater tolerance of diversity – including economic diversity – in areas that are prospering.

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 Albert Hunt This schism has little to do with ideology. Kemp, who was the 1996 Republican vice-presidential nominee and died in 2009, was no liberal; he never met a tax he didn’t want to cut or eliminate and until his later years was a foreign policy hawk. But he had a much more inclusive view of conservatism than many of his colleagues.

The contrasts between the views of Kemp and Gingrich on touchstone issues over the years illustrates why Trump and Ryan will never be soulmates.

In 1994, Kemp campaigned against California’s Proposition 187, a Republican-led initiative that barred undocumented immigrants from using public services, including education.

Gingrich said he probably would have voted for it. The measure passed but it alienated the state’s fast-growing Hispanic population and Democrats have dominated California politics ever since.

A former professional football

player, Kemp played with black teammates, marched in civil rights protests and forged friendly alliances with a number of members of the Congressional Black Caucus. Gingrich had stormy relations with most members of that caucus, including his fellow Georgia lawmaker, John Lewis.

The contrast is equally striking when it comes to attitudes toward Muslims. After Sept. 11, Kemp said he supported a “war” against terrorism but stressed that it was not a war against Muslims.

Gingrich, like Trump, sees danger in Islam. He fiercely opposed a proposal to build a multicultural center and mosque in downtown Manhattan near the World Trade Center.

“There should be no mosque near Ground Zero in New York so long as there are no churches or synagogues in Saudi Arabia,” he said.

The former speaker once tried to persuade New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie not to appoint a Muslim judge, warning against the dangers of Sharia, or Islamic law. Christie appointed the judge in 2011 anyway, saying the concern over Sharia was bogus.

There even is a pronounced

Kemp-Gingrich split that mirrors Ryan and Trump, over Ronald Reagan, the patron saint of most Republicans these days. Kemp worked for Reagan when he was governor of California, helped convert him to supply side economics and was close to him during his presidency.

When Gingrich ran for president in 2012, he frequently claimed an association with Reagan, even though they had little contact and the lawmaker often criticized the president.

Ryan is not a carbon copy of his mentor. Kemp, who never worried much about budget deficits, would have recoiled at some of the spending cuts to social services that the Wisconsin lawmaker has proposed.

And as speaker, Ryan was slow to follow Kemp’s model in reaching out to the poor.

But Ryan does practice the politics of opportunity and inclusion. By contrast, Trump, and often Gingrich, capitalize on anger and fear and are willing to play the race card.

It has served them well.

This split is one that cannot easily be negotiated.

AFSCME undermines fair contract negotiations Gov. Bruce Rauner vetoed House Bill 580 on Monday, a bill that strips taxpayers of representation during the state’s negotiations with government-worker unions. The House next is expected to vote on whether to override the veto.

Backed by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the bill demonstrates that AFSCME is engaging in a bait-and-switch with the state’s taxpayers. While AFSCME promised – three times – to negotiate with the state in good faith, its support of HB 580 undermines fair and honest contract negotiations.

AFSCME represents about 35,000 state workers in Illinois, and its most recent contract with the state expired June 30, 2015.

The governor and AFSCME have not been able to reach an agreement, so since last summer the government-worker union has entered into three “tolling agreements” with the state. The third tolling agreement is

VIEWS Mailee Smith still in effect. These agreements bind the parties to “continue meeting and negotiating in good faith” until either a contract is reached or impasse occurs. The union agreed not to strike, and the state agreed not to lock out union workers.

But AFSCME’s ongoing support of House Bill 580 – a reincarnation of last summer’s Senate Bill 1229 – undercuts the tolling agreements. HB 580 is AFSCME’s legislative end run around the typical negotiation process.

AFSCME is seeking in its next contract pay increases of 11.5 percent to 29 percent over the four-year life of the contract, platinum-level health care at little to no cost to union members, and a work week that includes overtime for workers

after 37.5 hours. AFSCME’s demands would cost Illinois taxpayers an extra $3 billion over the course of the contract. In a letter to all state employees in January, Rauner explained that AFSCME’s wage-increase demands alone would cost the state nearly $1 billion.

Illinois taxpayers cannot afford those demands. But HB580 would practically guarantee AFSCME’s demands are met.

If enacted, HB 580 would strip the state of bargaining power and allow AFSCME to unilaterally declare an impasse in negotiations and place all issues under the authority of an arbitration panel.

Research demonstrates that arbitrators almost always side with unions.

The panel would draft a binding contract between the state and AFSCME – a contract that is likely to meet all of AFSCME’s demands at taxpayer expense. This is contrary to what is required under the tolling

agreements.

AFSCME is engaged in a lobbying campaign, telling its members, “It is critical that we turn up the heat on state representatives who have not agreed to support this important legislation.” It is urging them to “take action.”

So on the one hand, AFSCME promised to stay at the table and negotiate in good faith, but on the other hand, the union is actively lobbying for a bill that would allow it to leave the table and run to outside arbitrators.

AFSCME’s game is clear. The union made a promise that it never intended to keep. Instead, it is doing everything it can to muscle the state’s taxpayers into a process that will practically guarantee AFSCME’s unreasonable demands are met.

• Mailee Smith is a policy staff attorney at the Illinois Policy Institute.

Donald Trump and House Speaker Paul Ryan will eventually patch together a rapprochement.

It won’t be real, but not because of their well-established substantive differences on trade, immigration or entitlements. After all, Trump seems flexible on any and all issues; hardcore principles are not an obstacle.

But the two Republican leaders have profoundly different approaches to politics: On one side, an optimistic conservatism that reaches out and is inclusive; on the other, one that seeks to energize an angry and alienated conservative base, including by playing to racial and ethnic fears.

The Trump-Ryan schism can be best understood by looking at two proxies: former Rep. Jack Kemp, R-New York, Ryan’s mentor and political role model, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Georgia, who is being considered as Trump’s running mate.

Gingrich recently claimed that Trump “is a little bit like Jack Kemp, but so much bigger a figure.”

There may be an argument about the latter part, but almost no one who was close to Kemp believes the real estate tycoon is anything like him.

Ill. fish market adds Asian carp to menu

By DENNY SIMMONS

Evansville Courier & Press GRAYVILLE – When Johnny Farmer died in 2013, his wife and business partner, Sue Farmer, decided Hard Times Fish Market had served its last meal. And that was how it was until Richard Clodfelter stepped in.

“Johnny and I grew up together,” Clodfelter said. “He was King of the River in his time.”

A longtime oil man and fisherman, Clodfelter is keeping up the tradition Johnny and Sue started by serving up locally grown fried green tomatoes and lots of fried fish. The sign out front has changed, too. Now it reads Rac’s Fish Market & Restaurant. A couple of other things have changed inside the restaurant, such as air-conditioning replacing the screen-covered windows and tables with chairs taking the place of the old benches.

Perhaps the biggest change one might notice during a visit to the riverfront business is the addition of Asian carp to the menu. The menace of the Wabash River, and a multitude of other inland waterways, can be found alongside local favorites such as catfish, buffalo and hi-fin.

“People are asking for (Asian carp),” Clodfelter said as he tossed a 12-pounder onto his cleaning station. “I started bringing them in, and I would give people a pound to try. Three out of five came back and would rather have them than the buffalo. I’ve got people

“I’ve got people coming back every day asking ‘Have you got any Asian carp today?’ ... I’ll be able to tell them tomorrow I do.”

Richard Clodfelter

Rac’s Fish Market & Restaurant owner coming back every day asking ‘Have you got any Asian carp today? We want some Asian carp.’ I’ll be able to tell them tomorrow I do. They’re going to get lucky.”

Clodfelter hasn’t always been a cheerleader for the invasive fish. Since all of his fish come from the Wabash River, where the fish leap through the air when excited by a boat’s motor, it can be a dangerous proposition even being in a boat on the river these days.

“I’ve been hit (when they fly through the air),” Clodfelter said. “My brother has, too. I’d like to have killed him.”

The fisherman has come to grips with reality of the situation. The river is overloaded with the Asian carp, and he has the means to make the most of it.

“This is something I started,” he said. “I don’t think there are many people who do this. The key thing is to keep them fresh. They absolutely stink to begin with. The longer they lay, the stinkier they get. Once you get past the smell, you’ve got her licked.”

NEW YORK – The executive producer of Sunday’s Billboard Music Awards is defending the decision to have Madonna pay homage to Prince, which has been met with some criticism online and sparked a Change.org petition.

“Listen, I think everybody is entitled to their opinion and everyone can have their own opinion, but I will say that we are honored and could not be more excited for Madonna to be on the show and to pay tribute to someone that was her friend and her peer and her colleague,” Mark Bracco said in an interview Tuesday. “I think it’s going to be fantastic.”

‘House of Cards’ star Robin Wright demanded equal pay

AP photo

Director Jeff Nichols (from left) and actors Ruth Negga and Joel Edgerton pose for photographers upon arrival Monday at the screening of the film “Loving” at the 69th international film festival at Cannes, southern France.

In Cannes Film Festival hit ‘Loving,’ a humble love overpowers racism CANNES, France – Jeff Nichols, sitting calmly by the beach, was surprised to notice a curious lack of butterflies amid the usually anxiety-ridden premiere experience at the Cannes Film Festival. His film, “Loving,” is about Richard and Mildred Loving, the Virginia couple whose biracial marriage in 1958 led to a landmark Supreme Court decision on marriage equality.

“It’s not my story,” said the writer-director, whose previous films, including the Mississippi River coming-of-age tale “Mud” and the science-fiction thriller “Midnight Special,” were original creations. “It’s their story.”

“Loving,” starring Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga, is told straightforwardly and simply. Although it has the context of a civil rights drama, it’s a portrait of a humble, unassuming love so steadfast that it eventually toppled one of the most odious legal remnants of slavery-era America – the ban against interracial marriages.

Without the standard Hollywood histrionics, the film patiently accumulates considerable force before finally overwhelming the viewer.

“No one moment adds up to the whole. But if you put them all together, hopefully, the weight of it gains this emotional density,” Nichols said. “Part of the cruelty of what was happening to them was time. Time was being taken away from them.”

The Lovings didn’t seek the spotlight, but their efforts to return home after being exiled from Virginia eventually led to the 1967 Supreme Court ruling of Loving vs. Virginia – a decision cited in the court’s 2015 ruling on same-sex marriage.

NEW YORK – Actress Robin Wright said she demanded the same pay as co-star Kevin Spacey for her work on “House of Cards” and got it.

Wright plays first lady Claire Underwood, an equally devious partner for Spacey’s President Frank Underwood, on the Netflix series.

The Huffington Post reports Wright said during a Tuesday interview at the Rockefeller Foundation in New York that she demanded equal pay after seeing statistics showing her character was more popular than Spacey’s for a period of time. She said she threatened to “go public” if she didn’t get paid.

Lots of comedies on tap on two nights for CBS this fall

NEW YORK – CBS is looking for more laughs, with the nation’s most popular television network planning to double the amount of sitcoms it has on the air through new projects premiering this fall starring Kevin James, Matt LeBlanc and Joel McHale.

Former “NCIS” actor Michael Weatherly is also staying on CBS’ Tuesday-night lineup as the star of a new drama based on talk-show host Dr. Phil McGraw’s past career as a trial consultant.

CBS was the last of the four biggest broadcasters to present its plans for next season to advertisers this week. The network is introducing eight new series next season, six of them in the fall.

CBS will end the current season as the nation’s most-watched network for the eighth

year in a row, and 13 out of the last 14 years.

The network has 17 series that average more than 10 million viewers per episode, more than all the other broadcasters combined, scheduling chief Kelly Kahl said.

The network will air four comedies each on Monday and Thursday night, the latter starting in late October after a package of NFL games. James, the former “King of Queens” actor, will play a retired police officer who finds home life unexpectedly complicated in “Kevin Can Wait.”

He’ll be paired on CBS’ Monday-night lineup with LeBlanc’s “Man With a Plan,” where the star plays a contractor who stays home with the kids when his wife gets a job. On the “Great Indoors,” McHale plays a former adventure reporter who takes a desk-bound job and has to deal with a younger staff.

Dan Brown working on YA version of ‘Da Vinci Code’

NEW YORK – Dan Brown wants to let younger readers in on the secret.

The million-selling author is working on a young adult version of his blockbuster “The Da Vinci Code,” the U.S. and UK children’s divisions of Random House announced Wednesday.

First published in 2003, Brown’s thriller about conspiracies and cults has sold more than 80 million copies worldwide and was adapted into a hit movie starring Tom Hanks.

Brown, whose book comes out in September, said in a statement that he hoped the new edition would give young people “the same thrill of discovery” that he gets from the “mysteries of the world we live in.”

34 Zika virus probably will appear in U.S. Dear Readers: In yesterday’s column, I discussed new evidence the Zika virus probably causes a brain birth defect that leads to small heads and brains (microcephaly). This can occur when a pregnant woman is infected early in pregnancy, when the baby’s brain is developing.

The virus is carried inside certain mosquitoes called Aedes mosquitoes, which bite and transmit the virus to humans.

Aedes mosquitoes already have spread north from South America and the Caribbean into the southern United States. This obviously is a concern for any woman who is contemplating getting pregnant.

We don’t know, however, how large this risk is: • How often will pregnant women who are infected early in pregnancy have babies with microcephaly? One small study from French Polynesia estimates the risk may be as low as 1 percent. However, in my opinion, that estimate is not very solid.

• What is the likelihood the virus will reach the U.S. and Canada? Aedes mosquitoes now are in about 30 southern U.S. states and in Hawaii. Global warming is encouraging the mosquitoes to travel north.

However, it is hard to predict how rapidly that will happen.

Even though Aedes mosquitoes already are in the U.S., the virus so far has not been found in U.S. mosquitoes. The problem is U.S. citizens often travel south.

Some have become infected with the virus, usually without knowing it, and then have returned to the U.S. carrying the virus. If they are bitten by U.S. Aedes mosquitoes, the virus could be transmitted to those mosquitoes. And those mosquitoes then could spread it to other people in the United States. And then Zika infections could take off in the U.S., just as they have in South America over the past several years.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff • Will this actually happen? I’m afraid it will. How soon will it happen? I wouldn’t hazard a guess. I’ll keep bringing you the latest information about this.

• When will there be a treatment or a vaccine? There currently is no antiviral treatment for this virus. Although scientists are working hard on this, it is unlikely a proven treatment will be available for several years. The same probably is true for a vaccine. It is encouraging that a vaccine against a similar virus, dengue virus, was approved in April. Hopefully, the lessons learned in developing that vaccine will speed development of a vaccine for Zika virus.

• Why are we behind in dealing with this new virus? If you are regular readers of this column, you can predict my answer: because we have not invested enough in biomedical research and public health.

We could have been collecting data on thousands of women in South America when this virus spread there several years ago. We could have started work on antiviral treatments and vaccines. Instead, federal, state and city governments were spending their limited resources on more immediately urgent health issues. There weren’t the funds to try to get ahead of this new virus.

Who determines how much our government spends to protect our health? We the people.

My wife of 15 years has begun spending a lot of time with a group of women who socialize away from their husbands. They like to meet without their husbands and party at pick-up nightclubs and swingers’ bars. When I asked her about it, her response was, “It’s just us girls dancing with each other and having a good time. We never dance with any of the men who ask us.” When I asked why they go to these kinds of places, she said the atmosphere and music are better there.

Abby, I object to this type of partying. We married to be together. She’s now accusing me of being jealous and possessive. Am I wrong to want her to stop? – Please Stop In Arizona Dear Please Stop: No, you’re not wrong. Your wife partying regularly at swingers’ bars and pick-up joints is a threat to your marriage. If the shoe were on the other foot and you were the one out drinking and dancing while she sat at home, she’d probably feel the same way you’re feeling now, unless you both had agreed on an open relationship.

Spouses who treat each other without consideration for the other’s feelings usually wind up divorced. Some sessions with a marriage counselor would be a good investment.

Dear Abby: My mom died of cancer last year at the young age of 63. (I am 30.) Not one member of my husband’s mother’s family (other than my mother-in-law and father-in-law, whom we live with) acknowledged her death in any way. There were no phone calls, no sympathy cards, nothing. My family and I were extremely hurt by their behavior.

Some members of my mother-in-law’s family are now nearing death themselves, and I know I will be expected to go along with my husband to the various services “out of respect.” The problem is, my respect for them no longer exists.

Any advice? – Disrespected On The East Coast Dear Disrespected: Yes. If you prefer not to attend, stay home. And if you are asked why you didn’t show up, tell them the reason.

Dear Abby: A family with young children just moved into the house across the street. They seem like nice people, but one thing concerns me.

Day and night, their 6-year-old son rides his bike all over the street unsupervised, and darts across without looking. Most of the residents on our street drive carefully, but every so often a strange car or two will barrel through.

Should someone go to the parents and tell them their child isn’t safe? Or is it nobody’s business to scold people on how to raise their children? – Concerned Neighbor Dear Concerned Neighbor: Go there not to scold but to welcome your new neighbors. And while you’re there, warn the parents some drivers ignore the speed limit while driving down that street, so it’s important they stress to their boy the importance of looking both ways.

Rules changes The National Federation of High Schools made two significant rules changes that were shared Wednesday. On free throws in basketball, players on both sides of the lane are not allowed to enter the lane until the ball hits the rim or goes through the net.

In wrestling, a new hold was outlawed, when a wrestler is standing and is placed in a body lock with one or both arms trapped and then is lifted and unable to break the fall.

Really?

The other wrestling rule change enacted by the NFHS adds a point penalty if a defensive wrestler exhibits inappropriate behavior to avoid being pinned, something the NFHS director of sports and student services referred to as “unethical techniques.”

Avenging bad memories

Shutout win helps ease frustrations of 2014 sectional loss

By JOHN WILKINSON

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Those Marian Central players who were on the roster for the Hurricanes’ last sectional appearance remember it well. It’s not a fond memory.

In 2014, the Hurricanes won a regional title in an emotional match against local rival Woodstock. Riding high into the sectional semifinal, the Hurricanes quickly were brought down with a 9-0 loss to Boylan Catholic.

In preparation for Wednesday’s Class 1A Marian Central Sectional semifinal, Hurricanes coach Karl Smith had some of the upperclassmen get up in front of the relatively young team and discuss their memories of that loss.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Coming into Wednesday’s game, Prairie Ridge’s Megan Walsh knew how important it was for her and her teammates to establish their presence in the postseason.

“It’s really important to go into the playoffs with a strong start, so I think that, today, we really set ourselves up for success in the future,” the senior midfielder said.

The Wolves girls soccer team’s performance Wednesday certainly did just that.

Behind Walsh’s first hat-trick of the season, the Wolves scored nine times in the game’s first 36 minutes en route to a 9-0 Class 2A Prairie Ridge Regional semifinal shutout of Chicago Mather. The game was called at the 60-minute mark.

The Wolves (14-6-1, 6-0 Fox Valley Conference Fox Division) advance to Friday’s regional final against Grayslake North.

The Wolves beat the Knights, 2-1, May 11.

“It was just really exciting,” Wolves forward Hanna Stovall said. “I think we know how we play our game. I think it was awesome that we got out there and got that kind of start.”

Stovall scored her team’s first two goals within the opening 10 minutes to set the tone. Alexis Petersen, Mariah Truitt, Emily Eriksen and Kristen Vosburg also scored for the Wolves, while Jena Berkland, Melissa Bear and Abby Eriksen had assists.

With the match in hand, Wolves coach Andre Watson wanted his team’s second half to concentrate on improving on-field communication. Although the Wolves didn’t add to their lead, it helped them maintain a steady offensive rhythm.

“A big part of our game is keeping the ball,” Watson said. “Communication is something we’ve been working on all year, so it’s good to see we can work on that.”

Mather was able to muster only one shot on goal to the Wolves’ 18. Goalkeeper Taylor Golt’s lone save in 40 minutes

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK ERIKA DACANAY Marian Central, Jr. Fwd. After missing postseason play the past two years because of injuries, the speedy Dacanay helped the Hurricanes to a Class 1A regional title this week, scoring two goals and assisting on two more. “She’s a handful. … She’s got a lot of different roles that she can play, at the flick of the switch she can go and she can play a number of different spots,” Hurricanes coach Karl Smith said. “She’s really a key player.”

4 BASEBALL: CARY-GROVE 3, JACOBS 0

Trojans earn half of FVC Valley championship McCumber allows only 4 Eagles hits in a complete game

By TIM SIECK

sports@nwherald.com ALGONQUIN – In reality, 2016 could have been a rebuilding year for the Cary-Grove baseball team.

Not only did the Trojans lose a lot in quantity from last year’s Fox Valley Conference Valley Division championship team, they also lost a lot in quality with several of its key players now playing college ball. Wednesday, C-G showed that the cupboard wasn’t completely bare entering this season.

“At Cary-Grove, we expect to win championships in all sports,” Trojans catcher Tyler Pennington said. “Baseball is a funny game in that, on any day, anyone can beat anyone. We had a tough week, losing a couple games, but it feels so good to come out on top in this one and bring home another championship.”

Behind another stellar outing by junior Matt McCumber, C-G defeated Jacobs, 3-0, and earned a share of the FVC Valley championship with Crystal Lake South. The Gators defeated McHenry on Wednesday to also earn a share of the division championship.

McCumber has been lights out for the past month, and that was the case again Wednesday. The junior went the distance, allowing no runs on four hits and finishing with nine strikeouts.

Twice, Jacobs had two runners on with less than two outs, and each time McCumber got out of the inning with strikeouts, two in the second and three in the fourth.

“This was a great win after losing the first game against them on Monday,” McCumber said. “I was able to keep them off-balance, and when they

Dallas McDonough knocked in Dominic Calamari with a two-out RBI double in the second, and Mark Smith brought home Quinn Celske on an RBI groundout in the third. The Trojans also got an insurance run in the seventh on an RBI single from Pennington.

Jacobs starter Brad Demkovich kept the Golden Eagles (19-12, 9-8) in the game. The lefty allowed only two runs, one earned, on six hits in five innings. Daniel Solomon led Jacobs with two of its four hits.

“McCumber was outstanding today,” Jacobs coach Jamie Murray said.

“We had some opportunities, especially early, but we just couldn’t execute and take advantage of some baserunners, and he only got stronger as the game went on. Congrats to Cary-Grove on another conference championship.”

Engelking got the last out in the second inning, leaving runners on first and second.

leski for a double to left-center field, tying the score at 3.

“I was ready to attack, hopefully drive a runner in,” Swiatly said. “As a group, that pushed everybody to want to do the same thing.”

Griffin Bright led off the seventh with a line drive that McHenry left fielder Matt Spooner, who appeared to struggle with the sun, could not handle. Nick Van Witzenburg laced a double into the right-field corner to score Bright. Cam Geisser and DeCicco followed with RBI singles to make it 6-3.

McHenry coach Brian Rockweiler said Miller had thrown 70 pitches Saturday, so he did not want to extend him further on shorter rest.

“Bobby threw pretty well, he just made one mistake and left a slider up,” Rockweiler said. “We wanted to keep his numbers down a little bit today. It’s kind of the thing that hurt us all year, we get guys on base and can’t hit them in.”

South was thrilled at winning a division title, even if it was shared with C-G. “It’s exciting, there’s nothing wrong with that,” Bogda said. “They’re a real good team, we had two good games against them.”

Siesennop comes through in division-clinching win

By JOHN LAVACCARE

jlavaccare@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Crystal Lake South got off to a shaky start on the mound in Wednesday’s conference-clinching win. In the second inning, starter Luke Dunham was hit in the leg by a line drive. Immediately afterward, he let up three runs, and had to be replaced by Andrew Engelking.

Engelking pitched well the next two innings, but in the fourth inning, Gators coach Brian Bogda turned the ball over to senior reliever Tim Siesennop.

Siesennop was coming off a weekend series with Fox Valley Conference Fox Division co-champion Cary-Grove in which he allowed no earned runs in 52/3 innings.

The Gators were down, 3-2, when Siesennop entered the game in the bot-

tom of the fourth. McHenry put a runner in scoring position with one out in the fourth with a hit and an error, but Siesennop forced a groundout and lineout to end the inning.

“They obviously have very good hitters. They’re a very good team, but I was a little wild at the beginning,” Siesennop said. “I settled in and it all worked out.”

Siesennop was lights-out after escaping the fourth-inning jam, retiring

the final 10 batters he faced. In his four shutout innings, the senior struck out three without allowing a walk.

Siesennop earned the win in the division-clinching game, as the Gators batters rallied in the final two innings to turn their deficit into a 6-3 victory.

“This is probably the biggest game of the year,” Siesennop said. “I was willing to do whatever it took to get the conference championship.”

Siesennop is a two-sport athlete, as

he also played for South’s basketball team. He faced some heckling from McHenry fans who recognized him, but he said he “embraces” the attention.

“Not a lot’s going to faze him,” Bogda said. “He’s been there and done that.”

Bogda praised his pitcher’s performance in the wake of his three-game streak without an earned run allowed, which has included nine total strikeouts.

“He just keeps people off-balance,” Bogda said. “He throws strikes, he’s ready, he’s prepared.”

The senior reliever’s consistency could be a result of his consistent preparation.

“I just get prepared every night, do what I need to do to get ready for the next day if I’m needed,” Siesennop said.

McHENRY – Crystal Lake South center fielder Tyler Carlson did some quick thinking during his fourth-inning at-bat against McHenry ace Bobby Miller. q THE NUMBER Carlson saw a slider in the dirt Hit total for McHenry in the last four earlier in the at-bat, so when Miller innings against Gators’ reliever Tim shook off a pitch suggestion at 2-2, Siesennop.

Carlson figured he might see another slider. q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Carlson guessed right. Miller South’s Tyler Carlson was warming up to pitch left the pitch up a little too much during the Gators’ three-run rally in the seventh and Carlson took advantage, ripinning, but stayed in center field. With the Peping a two-run, two-out single to tersen Park scoreboard not working, Carlson did left field. South, which was trailing not know the score as he jogged back to center by three runs against the Warriors’ field for the bottom of the inning. “I didn’t know heat-throwing right-hander, had a what was going on. I was going out in the field, much-needed lift.

‘How many did we score?’ They said, ‘We’re up “It gave us some confidence, defithree.’ I was like, ‘Oh, cool.’ ” nitely,” Carlson said. “Going down three runs early is tough, to come back That hit turned momentum around was huge. We needed that, I was glad to for the Gators. Tim Siesennop threw be a part of it.”

four scoreless innings of relief, Mike Swiatly delivered a game-tying double with Miller out in the sixth and South added three runs in the seventh.

When first baseman Jason DeCicco caught a pop-up for the final out, the Gators erupted into celebration of a 6-3 victory Wednesday at Petersen Park and a share of the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division baseball championship.

“These guys work hard, we’re not a fancy team, we don’t have some high-caliber guys,” Gators coach Brian Bogda said. “We have guys who work real hard and play for each other, and they’ve come together really, really nicely here at the right time.”

South (24-5 overall, 12-5 FVC Valley) shares the title with Cary-Grove, which defeated Jacobs, 3-0, Wednesday. The Gators trailed, 3-2, in the sixth, but Miller was taken out when he reached 88 pitches.

“We were trying to build up his pitch count as much as we could,” Bogda said. “Our hitters had a nice approach and waited out at-bats and got deep into counts.”

8 BULLS

Firing might be a message to Rose’s camp Team’s director of sports performance Jen Swanson let go

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com The first finger of Derrick Rose’s long-time grip on the Bulls organization has been pried loose.

On Wednesday, a member of the front office confirmed a report that the team’s director of sports performance, Jen Swanson, was removed from her position, as was strength coach Nick Papendieck.

The significance of that dismissal was huge, especially Swanson’s, considering that before she was hired by the Bulls, she was in charge of the Rose ACL rehab in 2012, while the point guard was rehabbing in Los Angeles.

Rose built such a solid trust with her that the organization not only brought

her aboard, but put her in charge of the entire strength department, despite no prior experience working with an NBA team.

Although it seemed to be a move to keep Rose happy and as comfortable as possible in his first comeback attempt, the collateral damage that stemmed from it over the next few seasons couldn’t have been anticipated.

Swanson’s perceived overemphasis on minutes restrictions, as Derrick Rose well as avoiding specific drills for Rose, not only alienated the guard from the Team USA coaching staff during his preparation for the FIBA World Cup two years ago, but then carried over to the Bulls.

She was not only in charge of Rose, but eventually Joakim Noah, and according to multiple sources, seemed to focus most of her attention on those two only. That didn’t go unnoticed by several players such as Jimmy Butler

and Pau Gasol, causing a natural rift between the four teammates.

Meanwhile, although it was Swanson or the front office putting her up to it, she also had major problems with former coach Tom Thibodeau, as she seemed to undermine what he wanted from his players from a strength and conditioning standpoint, and had the backing of the front office in doing so.

That backing obviously had a shelf life, however.

With Thibodeau gone and the organization trying to paint the picture that he was responsible for frequent injuries, the team was more injured this season under first-year coach Fred Hoiberg than they ever were in the Thibodeau regime.

Add that the umbrella of winning and making the postseason also was stripped away, and suddenly the blame game turned in Swanson’s direction.

There’s a bigger picture to this, however.

This is a Bulls organization that has bent over backward to try to keep Rose

NBA PLAYOFFS: WARRIORS 118, THUNDER 91

happy. They’ve put up with barbs from his camp – specifically his brother, Reggie, and agent, B.J. Armstrong, and they’ve tried to have him surrounded with as many of his people as possible.

With Rose a free agent after the 201617 season, however, was this move a sign they no longer were looking to cater to the one-time MVP, instead looking to build the team around Butler?

If Rose is unhappy and opts to sign elsewhere, the Bulls front office can always fall back on the “we tried to bring him back” excuse. It’s classic Jerry Reinsdorf PR, which the owner has used with not only the Bulls, but with the White Sox. With a member of Butler’s training staff rumored to be on the list of replacement candidates for Swanson’s spot, that really would send a message to the Rose camp that it’s Butler’s team now.

Either way, the Bulls have added some drama to a situation that only worsens.

And it’s only mid-May.

Curry dazzles, Warriors tie series Pens take 2-1

The Associated Press

OAKLAND, Calif. – Once Stephen Curry finally gathered himself and got up after a scary first-quarter dive into the stands, everybody inside Oracle Area could take a breath, sit back and watch the MVP put on a spectacular shooting show.

Curry scored 15 straight points in less than 2 minutes during one dazzling third-quarter stretch, and the Golden State Warriors beat the Oklahoma City Thunder, 118-91, Wednesday night to even the Western Conference final at one game apiece.

“Business as usual. This is what he does,” coach Steve Kerr said, before being asked how he feels during such a Curry onslaught and responding with a chuckle: “I feel great joy. It’s true.”

The MVP scored 28 points, making 5 of 8 3-pointers and shooting 9 for 15 overall, while Klay Thompson added 15 points in a balanced performance by the defending champions to bounce back from only their third defeat all season at Oracle Arena in the series opener two nights earlier.

“We responded all year long, whether it was a bad loss or a sloppy win,” Thompson said. “We come back

Kevin Durant scored 29 points but only six after halftime. Russell Westbrook had 16 points and 12 assists for the Thunder, who were outrebounded for the first time in five meetings with

the Warriors this season.

“They were sending three guys. I was trying to make the right pass,” Durant said. “Maybe I’ve just got to shoot over three people.”

Game 3 is Sunday night in Oklahoma City.

TAMPA, Fla. – Sidney Crosby, Phil Kessel and Chris Kunitz scored third-period goals, helping the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Tampa Bay Lightning, 4-2, in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals Wednesday night.

Carl Hagelin snapped a scoreless tie late in the second period, and Matt Murray had 26 saves for the Penguins, who took a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series.

Game 4 is Friday night at Amalie Arena.

Crosby’s power-play goal restored a two-goal lead midway through the final period. Kunitz also beat goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy from the right circle to make it 4-1.

Tyler Johnson and Ondrej Palat scored for the Lightning. They have lost two straight after winning the series opener in Pittsburgh. The defending Eastern Conference champions were outshot, 48-28, including 38-16 in the last two periods.

Prospect of being a manager appeals to Ross

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

MILWAUKEE – The day Fredi Gonzalez was fired as Braves manager this week, Cubs catcher David Ross was greeted in the Cubs’ clubhouse by a wise-guy teammate announcing his entrance: “D-Ross, the 2017 manager of the Atlanta Braves!”

“Yeah,” Ross said with a smile, “that guy was an idiot.”

That guy also was saying what many others already were thinking – if not next year in Atlanta, then some team, some time. Those in the game who know Ross have said that for years, even before he decided he would retire as a player after this season.

“It would be something that definitely piques my interest at some point, maybe,” Ross said. “But there’s a priority list in my life right now, and that’s not the top priority. And I think if you’re going to manage a team, it would probably have to be a top priority.

“When I get out of the game, I want

to go on a summer vacation with my family. I want to do some things that I haven’t gotten to do.”

The other side of what the “idiot” suggested is about what the Cubs will do without their spiritual leader – a veteran whose personality makes him a rare cohesive influence in the clubhouse, manager Joe Maddon said.

“With him, it’s legitimate,” said the manager, who scoffs at the David Ross “leadership” cliché.

“He’s a different animal.”

Wherever – and whenever – the managing gig for Ross might come, the Cubs’ solution to bridging their Ross gap might be to keep it from opening just yet.

Assuming top catching prospect Willson Contreras is ready next spring as anticipated, Ross could play a Manny Ramirez-like part-time advisory/instructor role – albeit, with actual structure – for Contreras and other young players.

“I definitely want to stay in the game. I definitely want to keep my foot in the door,” Ross said. “I love being around these guys, and obviously this organization is close to me here at the end of my career. I feel like this is a really, really special group, and it’s fun to come to work here.”

Not that he – or the front office – is ready to look very hard at something like that during the early part of a season like this.

“I’m just going to have a blast this year and figure that out when it comes,” Ross said. “If I start worrying about those things now, I’m not going to enjoy this. I’m really, really trying to enjoy every moment of this and not think past even today.”

Note: Outfielder Matt Szczur (hamstring) starts a minor league rehab assignment Thursday with Double-A Tennessee. Maddon said the club has no timeline set for Szczur’s return from the disabled list, but he’s expected to be activated before the team returns home next week.

but got no run support while on the mound for the second consecutive start.

He has just one win to show for four May starts despite allowing no more than two earned runs in any of them, with a 2.00 ERA in 27 innings this month.

But for the third consecutive game and fourth time in a week, the Cubs’ formidable bats looked for eight innings like they’ve fallen and can’t get up.

They’re just 16 for 104 (.154) in their last three games. Their only two runs against the Brewers Tuesday came on back-to-back homers with two out in the ninth inning of a 4-2 loss.

Two big differences between the juggernaut lineup of the first 35 games and the last three: • They’ve drawn only eight unintentional walks in the three games after averaging 5.2 walks per game before that (six of those came in Wednesday’s marathon).

• And the Brewers’ defensive shifts have been almost perfect through the first two games of this three-game series – with rare exception such as Ben Zobrist’s second-inning single slapped through the vacated left side Wednesday.

“That’s part of the game today,” manager Joe Maddon said. “And that’s why when you look at numbers, they can be skewed sometimes, based on what it looked like years ago. They were hits; now they’re outs.”

MILWAUKEE – For the past three games, the Cubs barely hit, rarely scored and scarcely resembled the team that owns the best record in the majors.

But they managed to win again anyway Wednesday night, with their most bizarre finish yet of an already ridiculous season.

It took a pitcher drawing a bases-loaded walk in the 13th inning, just before midnight, for the Cubs to take their first lead since Saturday.

And Travis Wood’s RBI stood up despite the lefty giving up a leadoff double in the bottom of the inning – then watching Neil Ramirez and Clayton Richard get the final two outs of the game to preserve a 2-1 victory.

Wood only got the chance to hit after escaping a bases-loaded, nobody-out jam in the bottom of the 12th (and because manager Joe Maddon had nobody left on his bench).

That Houdini act involved a five-man infield and three popups, including one to shallow center for the first out.

Kris Bryant, who started in left field, played three positions, using three different gloves – without ever actually making a play – during that inning. He took over at third as the fifth infielder with none out, then moved to first, switching

Nelson pitching one out deep into the eighth inning at Miller Park before the Cubs got off the mat in the ninth again for a mini-rally that sent a 1-1 game into extra innings.

Addison Russell’s one-out grounder with men at second and third sent home the tying run, before the Cubs avoided a third straight loss.

Panic time in May? To each his own.

It’s at least a reminder of the way the longest season in major league sports provides its own gravitational force against small-sample extremes – such as the Cubs’ gaudy start.

The Cubs averaged 6.1 runs per game through Saturday but have scored just five in regulation since then – all in ninth innings Sunday(one), Tuesday (two) and Wednesday (two).

Wednesday’s offensive frustration left John Lackey empty-handed after another strong start.

Lackey, who is putting together an impressive May after an up-and-down April, gave up just one hit and a walk before Kirk Nieuwenhuis’ double to the wall in left leading off the fifth led to the only run against him.

Domingo Santana followed with a single to put runners at the corners, and a grounder by Alex Presley drove home the run before Lackey pitched out of the jam.

Lackey went on to pitch six innings

SPORTS BRIEF

Brown gets new job at Illinois; Nunn pleads in battery case

CHAMPAIGN – Illinois basketball added former star Dee Brown to its staff Wednesday, saw Kendrick Nunn plead guilty to misdemeanor battery and learned that center Mike Thorne Jr. will get a sixth year of eligibility.

In exchange for Nunn’s guilty plea, he was sentenced to 18 months of unsupervised probation and 100 hours of community service, Champaign County State’s Attorney Julia Rietz said. If he completes those terms, the misdemeanor will be removed from his record.

Nunn was arrested in March and charged with two counts of domestic battery after he was accused of striking a woman. Nunn took responsibility for what happened and began working with a local youth basketball program well before his sentence, leading Rietz to believe the deal – which she said the victim supports – was appropriate.

Nunn, however, remains suspended

from the team, Illinois sports information director Kent Brown said. Athletic director Josh Whitman and coach John Groce will review Nunn’s situation.

Brown will be the team’s director of player development and alumni relations.

In the newly created position, he will provide what Groce called off-court guidance for players and help with on-campus recruiting and other activities.

Groce did not link Brown’s hire directly to off-court problems, but Nunn is one of three Illini players arrested this year, along with Leron Black and Jaylon Tate.

Tate has pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor domestic battery while Black was sentenced to a year of probation after pleading guilty last month to misdemeanor aggravated assault for threatening a bar bouncer with a knife. Tate is suspended from the team while Black was recently reinstated. Black will sit out the team’s first six games next season.

– Wire report Overly’s second-half goal, and senior goalie Marissa Krueger made seven saves in the loss. Brecken Overly also played in her final game.

“We had possession most of the game, but didn’t score on our opportunities and Belvidere North did on theirs,” Golda said. “I’m really proud of our girls. It was a great season, and nothing to be ashamed of. We’re really looking forward to the future in the new conference.”

Dacanay got her second goal of the game with 1:32 left before halftime, pouncing on her own rebound after hitting the post with her initial shot, to put the hosts up, 4-0.

Dacanay, who was on the 2014 team but missed that sectional game with an injury, said there were some jitters coming into Wednesday’s semifinal.

“Yes, we were definitely nervous,” Dacanay said. “But we knew if we stuck to what Karl said to us and all his speeches that he gave to us, we knew we could do it, and we just kept our spirits high.”

Now, the Hurricanes have a chance to win the second sectional title in school history.

“It’s pretty nervous, nerve-wracking, but I think we can do it,” Dacanay said.

ASTROS 5, WHITE SOX 3

Team believes in makeup after 6th loss in 7 games

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

You’re going to go through these little lulls.”

They definitely are in one now.

Mat Latos (5-1) contributed his fourth consecutive ineffective start after contributing four excellent ones to start the season, and the starting rotation shapes up as a mixed bag of the best 1-2 combination in the American League with ERA leaders Chris Sale (8-0, 1.67 ERA) and Jose Quintana (52, 1.54) followed by question marks in Carlos Rodon (1-4, 4.73 ERA), Latos (7.84 in his past four starts) and Miguel Gonzalez (5.17 ERA in three starts).

Latos gave up five runs on 11 hits, including homers to Colby Rasmus and Jason Castro.

The bullpen has digressed in the past week along with the rotation.

The Sox let Doug Fister escape the first inning with only a run allowed even though the first four batters reached on hits. Leadoff man Adam Eaton, trying to stretch a single into a double, got thrown out by rookie left fielder Tony Kemp, and Melky Cabrera hit into a double play.

Jose Abreu had RBI singles in the first and seventh, the latter against reliever Ken Giles, cutting the Astros’

lead to 5-3. Cabrera scored Frazier with a triple, but slumping Brett Lawrie, with the Astros middle infielders conceding a run, struck out for the third time in the game and sixth straight time overall.

The Sox turned their second triple play of the season in the eighth when George Springer grounded to Frazier at third with runners on first and second after walks by Dan Jennings to open the Astros eighth. Frazier stepped on third, threw to Lawrie at second and Lawrie turned it to first baseman Abreu.

This difficult stretch won’t be the last, Frazier warned.

“And it’s going to happen again,” he said. “That’s part of a normal 162-game season.”

“There’s no panic,” McEwing said. “No panic at all. Last night is over, and this club has a short memory. They go out and compete every night and leave it all on the field.

And they never stop, they keep battling.

“No matter the score, they keep grinding. We get behind, we come back, we get behind again and we come back again. They keep pulling for each other for 27 outs.”

WHITE SOX NOTES

Sox turn a triple play for the 2nd time this season

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

CHICAGO – The White Sox did it again.

For the second time in 2016, they turned a triple play, this time in more “conventional” fashion, as manager Robin Ventura put it, in the eighth inning of their 5-3 loss to the Houston Astros on Wednesday night at U.S. Cellular Field.

Whereas the first, on April 22 against the Texas Rangers at U.S. Cellular Field, involved five Sox players and was the first 9-3-2-6-2-5 triple play in history, this one was a straight aroundthe-horn effort by third baseman Todd Frazier, second baseman Brett Lawrie and first baseman Jose Abreu.

Frazier fielded George Springer’s ground ball near the bag to get it started. He said Springer’s ball hit foul first and “ricocheted” fair, which might have caused Springer to hesitate out of the box.

“It’s a pretty easy hop for me, and I’m not second-guessing,” Frazier said.

“Just going for two and then getting the one there [at first].”

Left-hander Dan Jennings had walked Tony Kemp and Jose Altuve on a total of nine pitches to put runners on first and second. He said he thought Frazier was “nuts” for going to second instead of first.

“It sucks to lose, and that’s the end result,” Jennings said. “But something like that makes the game fun.”

The last team to turn two triple plays in a season was the 2007 Philadelphia Phillies. The Sox did it last in 2006. The Sox are the first team since the 1978 Astros to turn two triple plays in the first two months of a season.

Vote of confidence: Frazier wasn’t within earshot of Rick Hahn when the White Sox general manager told media Tuesday he would do everything in his power to better equip the roster for a run to and well into the postseason.

Frazier probably was on a cot somewhere, losing the end of a battle with a nasty virus that had gone through his family and caused him to miss his first game as a Sox on Tuesday. But he read Hahn’s comments that resonated through the clubhouse in a good way.

“Without a doubt. I know he believes in us,” Frazier said Wednesday. “He wouldn’t have made all those moves in the offseason. He wants to win just as badly as we do. He’s been doing a great job in getting the guys that we need. I know he’s probably in his office right now focusing on what we need or what we don’t need. Kudos to him.”

Frazier, whom Hahn traded for shortly after the winter meetings in December, was back in his customary 4-spot in the lineup Wednesday. He knows there’s much to be said for a deeper roster, and with it would come no concern about what a new personality will do to a clubhouse chemistry.

“Not at all,” he said. “We had seven, eight new guys come in during spring training and it seems like we’ve played with each other all year long and all of our careers. So another guy comes in, he’s going to step up and play the Chicago way whether he likes it or not. That’s basically it. No cockiness about it. A guy comes in here and they know the record we have. It’s bottom line: come in here, dominate and focus on the next day.’’

CHICAGO – It will take more than makeup to carry the White Sox to the postseason.

They’ll have to get back to playing at the level that made them look like serious contenders before this first rut of the season, one that continued with a 5-3 loss to the Houston Astros before 14,936 fans Wednesday at U.S. Cellular Field for their sixth defeat in seven games and fourth in a row.

But there seems to be no doubt they have the right – call it what you want: character, chemistry, grind-ability, if you will – to get through the tough times.

“The makeup is unbelievable,” third base coach Joe McEwing said before the game. “One of the best, if not the best of any team I’ve been associ-

ated with.”

The only team McEwing compares the Sox to in that regard is the 2000 New York Mets he and Sox manager Robin Ventura played on. That team lost to the Yankees in the World Series.

“Our 2000 Mets club had a very similar character as far as makeup and individuals on a club,” McEwing said Wednesday. “But this is close to it, if not better. Personalities.

Guys that hold everybody responsible and get after it.”

Todd Frazier The Sox have said, even as they were building a 23-10 record before the 13-11 loss to the Texas Rangers on May 10 that started this current slump, that bad stretches were inevitable.

“We understand where we’re at and where we need to be,” third baseman Todd Frazier said. “The main thing is focusing on what we have to do today and keep on winning, finding ways to win. We knew something like this was going to happen. You don’t look forward to it, but I’ve told you guys from Day 1, it’s going to happen.

Fox River catfish ‘fish of a lifetime’ for LITH man

When you hear someone refer to a swimming creature as a “fish of a lifetime,” I’ll bet your mind immediately starts to envision a 10-pound bass or walleye or a 50-inch muskie, doesn’t it?

“Fish of a lifetime” doesn’t usually conjure up images of catfish. Well, maybe it should.

The top of this page is certainly hosting a fish worthy of that ”FOAL” designation. Take a good look at the incredible OUTDOORS 44-inch flathead Steve catfish Sarley that Lake in the Hills’ Rob Cowan caught this past week on the Fox River.

The beast is not nearly an Illinois state record, but it is the largest flathead I’ve seen taken from the Fox that I can remember. The state record is 81.4 pounds and was taken from Sangchris Lake. The previous record flathead weighed 78 pounds and was caught in Carlyle Lake. Both of these catches surprised me, as flatheads are considered to be river dwellers by most people.

Another anomaly offered up by Cowan’s fish is that it was caught on a crankbait. Most flathead aficionados will swear these creatures will only bite on live bluegills.

Cowan was fishing with his 80-yearold father for walleyes from his boat on the Fox in the vicinity of the Route 14 bridge. He was casting a two-inch, crayfish-colored crank on 15-pound braid when the flathead hit it. He was targeting walleyes in deeper, fast-moving water.

Now, Cowan is no stranger to flathead catfish. He said he has caught a number of them, up to 10 pounds, while fishing for walleyes and smallmouth bass on the Fox. All of his flatheads have been caught accidentally; he never has targeted them specifically.

This time, Cowan said his lure was hit by something that “felt like a freight train.”

Let me let him describe the battle.

“It hit really hard, and then it ran straight down and wanted to sit on the bottom,” Cowan said. “I knew right away that it was a flathead and it was a large one. It took 10 to 15 minutes of fighting to get it to the net. It kept pulling drag and it even pulled our boat down river a little bit.

“I had confidence in my equipment and never really thought that I was going to lose it. It came up to the surface twice and went straight back down to the bottom again. It finally came up, and my dad almost knocked it off my line with the net. He finally got it in the net, but it took the both of us to lift it into the boat. We quickly measured

Pet of the Week SLATE 1 YEAR OLD MALE GRAY DSH

Slate was found as a stray with his 2 siblings at only 6 weeks old. The good Samaritan that found them could not keep them so Helping Paws took them in. They needed a little socialization so they went to foster for a short time. All three were gray and Slate has beautiful dark gray fur with big gold eyes. He looks a little like a Chartreux with his smiling expression. Our volunteers love this small guy. They said he loves to play with interactive toys, the laser light, and the ball in a ring. He enjoys playing with all the other teens and young cats in Kittyland and he especially likes his buddy Fonzi. He loves to be petted and you can pick him up for some special hugs when he knows you. He will even head butt you and rub his face all over your face. Everyone is surprised that someone has not adopted him yet. You can meet him at Helping Paws located at 2500 Harding Lane, Woodstock, Illinois. Our website is www.helpingpaws.net and our phone number is 815-338-4400.

“THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE”

An app comes to life in ‘The Angry Birds Movie’

By LINDSEY BAHR The Associated Press

“THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE”

It’s hard not to have a few biases going into “The Angry Birds Movie.”

In the most cynical view of what gets made in Hollywood, an addictive app might just be at the bottom of the pile, languishing there in suspicious squalor with movies adapted from board games and amusement park rides.

Comic books get away with the “it’s really about characters” justification.

Even some video games have an essential story behind them. A puzzle game, though? You can’t even pretend.

The clever ones use this starting point as a blank slate on which to create something that is maybe cool, unexpected or just not terrible. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are the current masters of this, crafting compelling stories out of the bleakest source material.

“The Angry Birds Movie” doesn’t quite achieve the relative superiority of “The Lego Movie,” but it’s definitely not terrible and even surprisingly fun.

It’s the directorial debut of veteran animator Clay Kaytis (“Frozen,” “Tangled”) and storyboard artist Fergal Reilly (“Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs,” “The Iron Giant”), who are working off a script from “The Simpsons” alum Jon Vitti. The concept is simple: how did the angry birds get so angry?

The short answer is they’re not angry by nature, more by circumstance. And at first, the angry ones are the outcasts of this bright little society of flightless birds and avian puns (“pluck my life”).

The story is centered on Red (Jason Sudeikis), a loner bird who is aggravated by the minor inconveniences and annoyances of life on Bird Island – someone sneezing close to his popcorn, or a kid kicking a ball against his house.

His bad luck and short temper land him in group therapy for anger man-

STARRING: Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Danny McBride

PLOT: Find out why the birds are so angry.

When an island populated by happy, flightless birds is visited by mysterious green piggies, it’s up to three unlikely outcasts – Red, Chuck and Bomb – to figure out what the pigs are up to.

RATED: PG for rude humor and action RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 37 minutes

agement alongside some other volatile types such as the manic Chuck (Josh Gad), the dimwitted Bomb (Danny McBride) and the bruiser Terence (whose grunts supposedly are the work of Sean Penn – an even more dubious distinction than Vin Diesel as Groot).

Meanwhile, some pigs arrive by ship.

Even typing that sentence feels as inorganic as the actual plot, but “Angry Birds” has to get to a place where the birds are fighting pigs, so why not make it a colonialization parable?

At first it’s just a few pigs, led by Leonard (Bill Hader) – they’re fun and have gadgets. Then more come, and suddenly Bird Island is overrun. Red is suspicious, but everyone else is buying the snake oil. It’s only when the pigs abscond with the town’s unhatched eggs the masses realize they’ve been had.

The beginning is definitely the strongest. It starts to go downhill when the pigs arrive. By the final showdown, the plot has lost most of its narrative steam, but that’s more a disclaimer for the parents than the tots who likely will delight in the unruliness.

Oh, and the film is bursting with talent. Ultimately, “The Angry Birds Movie” does a decent job exploring the merits of anger. It’s no “Inside Out,” but it has heart and life, which isn’t too shabby for any film – app or not.

CL native’s summer horror film ‘Lights Out’ creates buzz

By JAMI KUNZER • jkunzer@shawmedia.com

small-budget horror film has earned a spot among a slew of summer blockbuster releases, and a Crystal Lake native is behind it.

A 2002 graduate of Crystal Lake South High School now living in Los Angeles, Ben Everard is the executive producer of “Lights Out,” a film based on a 3-minute short film of the same name that went viral about a woman haunted by a creature when the lights go out.

Everard’s father, Lloyd, of Crystal Lake, is one of the film’s co-producers.

With a budget of $6 million, the film is scheduled for a July 22 premiere, alongside the big-name releases of “Star Trek Beyond” and “Ice Age: Collision Course.”

“To get a worldwide release in the middle of summer with a tiny budget like that confirms the execution of the film is particularly high and audiences really love it,” said Everard, invited to talk to students at his former high school May 25.

He said he’ll likely touch on the impact digital media outlets, such as Hulu, Amazon and Netflix, have had on the entertainment business, among other things in the industry.

“In some respects, it’s the Wild West again in this business because there’s such disruption of the model by these digital players,” he said.

And, of course, he’ll plug “Lights Out,” rated PG-13.

Everard, who co-owns Grey Matter Productions with Lawrence Grey, saw the original short film – directed by Swedish director David Sandberg, who also directs the full-length version – and knew “the guy had some chops.”

The more they got to know Sanberg, they knew they had a potential hit on their hands. Grey Matter Produc-

tions optioned the short film, attracted horror movie veteran James Wan (“Saw,” “Insidious: Chapter 3,” “Annabelle” and the upcoming “Annabelle 2”) and went from there.

They knew the premise was solid – most everybody has a primal fear of the darkness or has experienced a moment late at night when they fear a shadow in a dark corner.

“The short is just that. It’s a gimmick, a premise, a concept.

There’s not a real story. That was the biggest hurdle. How do you take a very generous concept and build a narrative around that?” Everard said.

“At the end of the day, that was the key. That was where we were doing our job. We weren’t going to develop it just to have a movie. We wanted it to be special.”

Word is the film, tested in front of numerous audiences, is just that. Everard’s goal was to still have a compelling story with the horror aspects of the film stripped away.

Like the film, his path to Hollywood wasn’t traditional.

“Lights Out” Director David Sandberg (left) talks with Executive Producer Ben Everard on the film set.

He studied political science and economy at the University of Miami before earning his law degree at George Washington University in 2009.

Working at a law firm in Los Angeles, he learned the ins and outs of the entertainment business in reverse, by litigating as movie deals fell apart.

“Coming to Los Angeles was sort of a wink and a nod to ‘I’m going to figure out some way to get involved in film,’ ” he said. “I did not know the direct path.”

He soon started a production company – selling the television

show “Hang Men,” a reality show about people who climb 800 feet to maintain cell towers, to the Discovery Channel – and eventually pairing with Grey.

For Everard, it’s as much about the business as it is the creative aspect.

“If you can succeed within this industry, it can be one of the more exciting industries out there. It can be fun. It can be sexy, high profit,” he said.

“At the end of the day, you’re creating something people often respond to in a meaningful and emotional way.”

Nelson twins return to Raue to pay tribute to dad Ricky

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

Twin brothers Gunnar and Matthew Nelson set out to perform a tribute concert for their legendary father Ricky Nelson for a couple of years.

Or until people stopped caring, Gunnar Nelson said.

“Here we are now 12 years later, and it’s selling out wherever it goes,” he said.

Having performed at the Raue Center for the Arts in Crystal Lake a few years ago, the twin brothers will return to the Raue with “Ricky Nelson Remembered” at 8 p.m. May 21. Tickets start at $31 at 815356-9212 or www.rauecenter.org.

Described as “a high-energy concert meets an A&E Biography special,” the show is a unique multimedia event with never-before-seen video footage of the Nelson family, interviews with celebrities influenced by Ricky Nelson and clips of his family’s show, “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet.”

“It’s a lot more than people expect,” Gunnar said of the show.

“The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet,” in which Ricky Nelson got his start in 1952 before going on to record 30 Top 40 hits between 1957 and 1962, featured Matthew and Gunnar’s grandparents, Ozzie and Harriet Nelson, as well as their uncle, David. The twin boys appeared with their father on occasion.

And, through the years, they saw him reinvent himself, leaving behind his teen idol status, with songs such as “Poor Little Fool,” “Hello Mary Lou” and “Travelin’ Man,” to success with the country rock Stone Canyon Band and the 1972 hit single, “Garden Party.”

Ricky Nelson actually wrote the song in response to having been booed off the

stage for refusing to play his old hits at a rock and roll revival concert at Madison Square Garden.

“Singlehandly responsible for smuggling rock and roll into American living rooms at a critical time in rock history,” Gunnar said, and later reinventing himself as a country rocker, Ricky Nelson never really got the credit he deserved.

He died in 1985 at the age of 45 in a plane crash while on his way to a New Year’s Eve concert in Dallas. In 1987, he was inducted posthumously into the Rock and Roll of Fame. And his Stone Canyon Band was credited as one of the first true country rock bands, the start of a new genre of music, Gunnar said.

Some of Gunnar’s most vivid memories are watching his father on stage.

“I didn’t know as a kid what it was like to not have music around,” he said.

At 6 years old, he asked for his first drum set, knew the path he would follow.

“I really did make a connection – my dad went out there on stage and he was happy, and everybody in the audience was happy with what he was doing,” he said.

He and his brother wanted to succeed without relying on their family’s history. As the long-haired rock duo Nelson, they scored a No. 1 hit with “(Can’t Live Without Your) Love and Affection,” and their 1990 album, “After the Rain,” earned double platinum status.

With the hit, the family was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the only family to have three generations produce No. 1 hits, beginning with Ozzie Nelson’s “And Then Some” in 1934.

As Nelson toured, acts such as Peter Frampton would ask them to perform “Garden Party” with them on stage.

“You get enough of that, and you finally realize there are so many people positively

The show expands every year, Gunnar said, though the Nelson twins haven’t abandoned their own musical pursuits, releasing the album “Peace Out” last year.

Their hair is shorter, but their interest in what they describe as the California arena rock they perform hasn’t waned.

“We’ve been playing nightclubs professionally since we were 12 years old in southern California,” Gunnar said. “The new Nelson set focuses in on that sound, two guys singing together. We don’t necessarily look like Cheryl Tiegs or Farrah Fawcet anymore …

“Since music is a memory to everybody, the next 10 years is going to be a wonderful opportunity to remind people of a time when MTV actually played videos, a time of hope and possibility,” he said.

As for “Ricky Nelson Remembered,” Gunnar said they read the audience to decide whether they’d enjoy a chorus of “(Can’t Live Without) Your Love and Affection,” or if they should stick with their father’s hits. Either is fine with them.

“We really do feel him on stage with us,” Gunnar said of his father. “He really was that guy you hoped he would have been had you met him person, down to Earth and kind of like your neighbor …

“I honestly think it’s the last show he would do for himself, but God made twins to do it for him.”

ROYAL BLISS

Longtime Huntley fan brings country rockers to Tee 2 Green

MORE SOUNDS NEWS & REVIEWS NWHerald.com

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

With a video debut featured on CMT this past week and a busy summer tour kicking off with a stop in Huntley, the rock band Royal Bliss has found a new home in country music.

“It was kind of a natural transition for us,” lead singer Neal Middleton said of the band’s move from classic to country rock. “We all looked at each other and said, ‘It just fits. It’s comfortable.’ ” The band’s tour – encompassing at least seven major country music festivals – will include a 9 p.m. May 26 concert at Tee 2 Green Golf Course in Huntley.

Drawn to town for a 50th birthday bash for a longtime fan, Steve Tolvstad of Huntley, the band will perform a show for ages 21 and older.

The show comes as Royal Bliss celebrates the success of its latest country single, “We’re All Livin’ The Dream,” from the new EP, “The Truth,” set for release June 3. Since the band’s beginnings in Utah in 1997 performing what Middleton describes as “reggae rock,” Royal Bliss has released eight studio albums and performed on stages throughout the country, often to sold-out crowds. Throughout, Middleton, with his deep, raspy voice, has remained the front man.

Here’s more of what he had to say about the upcoming show and tour, as well as the band’s new sound:

WHEN: 9 p.m. May 26 WHERE: Tee 2 Green Golf Course, 11173 Dundee Road, Huntley COST & INFO: For ages 21 and older. A $10 cover charge. Information: www.royalbliss.com.

Kunzer: You’re coming to town for the birthday of a fan, I hear.

Middleton: Steve [Tolvstad] has just been a huge fan for a long time. Every show we do in the area, he’s there, does the VIP package. He’s just one of those familiar faces we’ve gotten to know through the years. Seeing him at shows, talking to him, we’ve become friends. That’s kind of what we’ve done our whole career. We have friends all over the country. … We like doing stuff like that that’s a little bit out of the norm. We get a lot of invites to weddings and birthday parties. If it works out and we’re in the area, we’ll make it happen. There are so many fans and people we owe a lot to. We’re in debt to a lot of people around this country for continuing to support us.

Kunzer: How has the transition been?

Middleton: Nashville and the country music world has just embraced us, and CMT. In the rock world, we never got treated like that. It was such a struggle. It was so much money to get on radio and to get anything. It just feels like we finally found our home.

Kunzer: You’ve been at it nearly 20 years. Tell us about how this move to country came about.

Middleton: Originally we started out like reggae rock … [influenced by bands like] Sublime, Led Zeppelin and The Doors, like reggae classic rock. Back in these days, it was all about partying and smoking and girls. As times changed, we evolved as people. With love, heartache and life we got a little bit edgier, and then it started going back down the other side. I’m married with two healthy kids in the suburbs with a cat and dog. I don’t really have a lot to be bitter about or have so much angst about.

It’s all about love and friends and hanging out and having beers. Guess what, that’s what country music is all about.

Kunzer: The video for your single, “We’re All Livin’ The Dream,” depicts band members leaving their day jobs to go on the road. Do you still have a day job?

Middleton: Kind of, I own a bar here in Salt Lake City with my guitarist.

That’s pretty much my other job. Other guys [in the band] have random jobs. … That’s the tough thing in the music industry nowadays, you have to be at the top of the top in order to make a good living. … That was our whole concept [with the video], to show that side of it. Everybody does different jobs. It wasn’t literal, but it could have been.

It could have showed me bar tending at a bar.

Kunzer: What can we expect from a show this summer?

Middleton: It’s not that different of a show [than we’ve always put on].

Maybe a little bit mellower than some of the heavy sets. … We’re not going to abandon our fans that have been here and all their favorite songs. We still squeeze in a lot of the songs people love.

HOMES

Thursday, May 19, 2016 • Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

Home buyers want drama, comfort and privacy in their master suites Fast-paced lifestyles can make people yearn to retire to a private retreat for relaxation and restoration. Thus, the master suite has become a center for dramatic features and creature comforts, and home buyers are personalizing these rooms with a wide range of options. Even the name has been elevated to the “owner’s suite” or “owner’s retreat.”

They may want the master bedroom to be separated from the secondary bedrooms and other noisy areas or located for privacy at the rear of the home,” he said.

“The master suite continues to evolve,” said Chris Naatz, vice president of marketing for D.R. Horton Homes. “For example, sitting rooms opening off the bedroom are no longer popular. Most buyers would rather have a spacious bedroom that functions as a multi-faceted center for relaxation.

“Space is an aesthetic owners can enjoy each day,” she said. “This is why we use vaulted ceilings and the right number and proportion of windows so they can breathe life into the room and make it feel brighter. David Weekley Homes offers Life Designsm which is purposeful room placement, making homes live larger with the use of such elements as windows and light, sight lines and traffic patterns.”

“Buyers have preferences for the location of the master bedroom.

Space is an important factor in the design of master bedrooms, said Leigh Nevers, sales consultant for David Weekley Homes.

“Master bedrooms are growing into true retreats, and both space and drama are components,” said Anna Harmon, director of marketing for Shodeen Homes, Inc. “Many of our buyers ask for vaulted or other decorative ceilings. We also receive many requests for recessed lighting with dimmers to create different moods.

Buyers want walk-in closets with

custom wood shelving and space for a bench or chair, and they want the closet to be close to the master bath for greater convenience.”

“Walk-in closets are universally popular, and they can be his and hers arrangement or one huge closet with dividers to denote his and her sides,” Naatz said.

Bill Tammeus, in Toronto’s National Newspaper in 1991, wrote, “Oil prices have fallen lately. We include this news for the benefit of gas stations, which otherwise wouldn’t learn of it for six months.”

At the bridge table, bidding conventions are devised to try to facilitate reaching the best final contract.

However, they all come with a price.

Look at today’s deal. If the auction had gone one no-trump - three no-trump, West would have led the spade queen, and South would have taken 12 tricks. But transfer bids are recommended, even though they give the opponents more options.

They can intervene immediately; or pass first, then bid on the next round; or fourth hand can make a lead-directing double, as in today’s deal.

After East doubles two diamonds, North-South are in trouble. In three no-trump, they will lose the first five tricks. Four hearts can also be defeated -- see below. In this sequence, North’s three-diamond rebid asked his partner to bid three no-trump with a diamond stopper. When South continued with four clubs (denying both a stopper and three-card heart support), North wisely passed.

West led the diamond seven. East took three tricks in the suit, and West correctly signaled with the spade queen (top of touching honors) on the third round. East, now knowing from the point count that South had the spade king and the heart king, led another diamond, which promoted West’s club jack as the setting trick.

Note that four hearts is beaten similarly, West ruffing the fourth diamond with his heart 10, which effects an uppercut.
