Good morning, McHenry County ...

Stopgap budget already costs $8 billion Turns out Reps. David McSweeney and Jack Franks were right.

The temporary budget approved late last month by the Illinois General Assembly and signed by Gov. Bruce Rauner is a disaster.

At the request of McSweeney, the Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability analyzed the six-month budget and found that it’s about $8 billion out of whack.

That’s right, $8 billion with a “B.” The state is expected to bring in $31.8 billion but spend $39.6 billion. And as I wrote in this space the day after the budget disaster was approved, that means huge tax increases are coming after the November elections.

McSweeney and Franks were among only a handful of lawmakers to vote against the deal.

“The COGFA estimate of a $7.8 billion Fiscal Year 17 budget deficit is proof that the recently passed unbalanced stopgap measure is making our insolvent state’s fiscal problems much worse,” McSweeney said. “The General Assembly should do its job and go back into session to immediately adopt a balanced budget without a tax increase.

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Dan McCaleb “If the General Assembly doesn’t come back into session until the next scheduled date of Nov. 15, it’s likely that there will be a massive income tax increase. Secret working groups have already been discussing raising the income tax rate by about 30 percent. Raising taxes is the wrong answer and will kill jobs and hurt families.”

McSweeney, of course, is absolutely right.

Don’t expect Speaker Michael Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton to heed his call.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT A California man who drove across the country to McHenry County with more than 70 pounds of marijuana was sentenced Thursday to 12 years in prison.

Michael Karavastev, 42, was found guilty in May. Police stopped him while he was traveling in Crystal Lake in December 2012. Prosecutors have said the marijuana was valued at more than $600,000.

SAN FRANCISCO – In second grade, California students will learn about families with two moms or dads. Two years later, while studying how immigrants have shaped the Golden State, they will hear how Harvey Milk became a pioneering gay politician in San Francisco.

The State Board of Education unanimously approved those changes in classroom instruction Thursday to comply with the nation’s first law requiring public schools to include prominent gay Americans and LGBT rights milestones in history classes.

The updates are part of a curriculum overhaul. The changes satisfy legislation that added LGBT Americans and people with disabilities to the list of social and ethnic groups whose contributions schools are supposed to teach and must appear in K-8 textbooks.

UPBEAT ATTITUDE

Fundraiser to help Crystal Lake Central student who lost eye

By SAMANTHA MOORE smoore@shawmedia.com

CRYSTAL LAKE – Before his accident, Crystal Lake Central High School student Kaelan Connell enjoyed fitness and spending his time working out, but even after losing his eye, Connell continues to pursue his passions.

While spending time with friends March 29, Connell was accidentally struck in the left eye by a stick. Connell, 14, recalls his first thought after the accident as needing to call his dad to alert him that he no longer could attend football practice.

However, Connell quickly realized the severity of the situation. After being transported by Flight For Life

from Centegra in Woodstock to Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago, doctors were forced to receive permission to perform surgery from Kaelan’s parents over the phone as they battled rush-hour traffic.

Connell recalls the moment – going into surgery when his parents had not yet arrived at the hospital – as being the scariest. He estimates that

the emergency attempt to save and remove debris from his left eye took about four hours.

During his second surgery, Connell received an enucleation, or the removal of his damaged eye.

But as soon as his surgeon cleared him, Connell immediately returned to

Marengo fire captain ‘lived, breathed, loved’ fire service

Steve Barry, of Huntley, dead at 63 after fight with cancer

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com MARENGO – Marengo Fire Protection District Capt. Steve Berry was someone who co-workers said had the biggest heart, loved the fire service and loved his family.

The 63-year-old Huntley man died Tuesday after fighting bile duct cancer for about a year, Marengo Fire Protection District Capt. John Kimmel said.

Kimmel said Berry came to Marengo as a firefighter in 2009 after retiring from the Elgin Fire Department, where he was a lieutenant for nearly 30 years. He was a captain with Marengo fire for the past two years, Kimmel said.

“You never saw Steve have a bad day,” Kimmel said. “He lived, breathed, loved the fire service, his family, his faith. He was a man’s man, and he was a family man – and it’s something that anybody in the fire service or a father should strive to be.”

Berry had two sons, Christopher Berry and Brian Berry, who is a lieutenant at the Carpentersville Fire Department, Kimmel said. Steve Berry and his wife, Linda Berry, had three grandchildren, Kimmel said.

The Elgin, Marengo and Carpentersville fire departments supported Steve Berry through his fight with cancer with the “Berry Strong” fundraiser, Kimmel said. And although Steve Berry was off work recovering from recent surgeries when he died, he always intended to come back to the fire service, Kimmel said.

“He’s a fighter,” Kimmel said. “That’s one thing – there wasn’t an ounce of quit in him. He never gave up the whole time.”

Craig Pleva, Marengo battalion chief and Elgin lieutenant, has worked with Steve Berry on and off for more than 20 years, and said Berry was destined to be a fireman.

“Steve was one of the guys that was really, really good at making solid, quick decisions,” Pleva said. “He was aggressive, but he was always safe.”

Marengo Fire Protection District Capt. Steve Berry, 63, of Huntley, died Tuesday after fighting bile duct cancer.

Steve Berry loved helping people, Pleva said, and made friends easily.

“To know Steve was pretty much to love Steve,” Pleva said.

Marengo Fire Protection District Lt. Mark Pankow agreed that Steve Berry was a great man to work with.

“I trusted him with my life,” Pankow said. “He never had a bad thing to say about anybody. He was one of those guys who was just very genuine. He just had the biggest heart, and he will be missed.”

Wake and funeral services will be held at Harvest Bible Chapel, 1000 N. Randall Road, Elgin.

The wake will be from 3 to 9 p.m. Monday, with a silent guard from 4 to 8 p.m., and a firefighter walk-through at 6:30 p.m.

The funeral service will start at 10 a.m. Tuesday, followed by a procession to the grave site at Lakewood Memorial Park, 30W730 Route 20, Elgin. The procession will pass Elgin Fire Department Station Five, 804 Villa St., Elgin, where Steve Berry used to work.

School District 300 to hold ‘Stuff the Bus’ supply drive for students in need

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Community Unit District 300 in Algonquin will look for donations Saturday for the annual “Stuff the Bus” school supply drive.

The District 300 drive will be held from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Wal-Mart parking lot in Algonquin, 1410 S. Randall Road. District officials are hoping

the drive helps homeless students of the district get the supplies they need for the upcoming school year.

District officials recommend people donate folders, notebooks, loose-leaf paper, pencils, pens, scissors, glue sticks, rulers, crayons, colored pencils, markers and gender-neutral backpacks.

District officials will organize the donated supplies, place the supplies inside the donated backpacks and distribute

them to students who need them.

For those who can’t attend the Stuff the Bus drive Saturday, donations still may be dropped off anytime from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. weekdays at the front desk of the District 300 Central Office, 2550 Harnish Drive, Algonquin.

Monetary donations should be sent by check, with Stuff the Bus written on the check’s memo line, and made out to “CUSD 300” by mail to the same address.

Man gets 12 years for sexually assaulting 5-year-old relative Ex-Wonder Lake man initially faced charges involving 3 family members

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A former Wonder Lake man was sentenced Thursday to 12 years in prison for sexually assaulting a young family member.

Evan A. Staron, 31, was convicted on one count of predatory criminal sexual assault, a Class X felony, last summer after a jury trial. The jury found that he molested a female family member in 2007 who was then 5 years old.

The allegations surfaced in 2013 when two family members spoke up about alleged sexual contact, authorities have said.

At the time of the trial, Staron’s defense attorney, Paul DeLuca, previously argued the jury was tainted when one juror brought in literature on how to nullify a jury. McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather said she did not believe there was a mistrial and, months later, denied his request for a

new trial.

Cases of two other family members who accused him of sexually assaulting them were set for trial later this year, but Staron agreed Evan A. in May to waive his apStaron pellate rights and let the predatory criminal sexual assault conviction stand. In exchange for doing so, all other charges were dismissed by the state’s attorney’s office.

He can, however, appeal the sentence imposed Thursday, and his attorney plans to argue his motion to reconsider the sentence Aug. 16.

In addition to his prison sentence, Prather ordered the defendant to pay $4,000 to his victim’s family for counseling. He will be a registered sex offender for the rest of his life and will serve at least three years of mandatory supervised release.

He is required to serve 85 percent of his sentence.

DeLuca said his client had a dysfunctional upbringing, which left him on his own when he was 16 years old.

He said his client chose to “allow all of this to come to an end” after he gave up his appellate rights and allowed his original conviction to stand.

Prather said that while she sympathized with Staron’s difficult upbringing, it does not excuse his actions against family members who thought they could trust him.

Assistant State’s Attorney Robert Zalud said there are crimes people commit that can be forgiven, but being a child molester is not one of them.

“The defendant chose to take the innocence of three children,” he said.

“We’re asking that you take away his tomorrow.”

Zalud asked Prather to sentence Staron to 24 years in prison.

Vic Unger, a relative by marriage who has known Staron since he was 3 years old, said he once loved and cared for him, but today believes he is a monster.

“Every cell in my body hates you and will forever,” he said.

Trafficker who drove 70+ pounds of marijuana to county sentenced California man gets 12 years in prison

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A California trucking company owner was sentenced Thursday to 12 years in prison after he knowingly traveled across the country to McHenry County with more than 70 pounds of marijuana.

Jurors in May found Michael Karavastev guilty of marijuana trafficking, unlawful possession with intent to deliver marijuana and unlawful possession of marijuana.

Karavastev faced a minimum of 12 years because more than 5,000 grams of marijuana were in his possession,

Assistant State’s Attorney Mary Ann Scholl said.

He is required by law to serve at least 50 percent of his sentence.

The 42-year-old was traveling near Routes 31 and 14 in Crystal Lake in December 2012 when police stopped him and a McHenry County K-9 officer detected narcotics.

The officers said the marijuana they found was in cardboard boxes stored in a crate that had an “odor eater” device inside to diffuse the smell.

The marijuana was valued at more than $600,000, prosecutors have said.

Karavastev was paid $8,000 to make the delivery from Reno, Nevada to McHenry County – two times more than he typically charges, prosecutors said.

Detectives testified during the trial that they were working with a confidential informant who made the of-

ficers aware of Karavastev’s planned trip to McHenry County. Detectives also said Karavastev admitted during an interview that he knew he was transporting Michael drugs and said this was Karavastev not the first time he had done so.

Defense attorney Stephen Richards contended during the trial that his client did not know what was in his vehicle and the detectives were conducting “bad police work” throughout the case.

Richards also said Karavastev was told he was carrying machinery in his truck.

Richards filed a motion requesting a new trial on behalf of his client, but it was denied by Judge Michael Feetterer before sentencing.

ALGONQUIN – Since Mark and Lisa Harvey opened The Dog Waggin’ in summer 2010, the company has built a base of loyal customers who trust the business with their pets.

The owners are hoping that community support will help them win the Small Business Boost contest sponsored by NBC Chicago.

The Dog Waggin’ – a business at 1400 S. Main St. that offers dog day care, training, overnight care, pet sitting, dog walking and transport – is one of four businesses across the Chicago area in the running for the award, which recognizes businesses that give back to their communities.

The prize for the contest – $2,500 and a commercial on NBC – will be awarded to the business that accumulates the most votes through the NBC

Facebook page.

The Harveys said a few customers and relatives nominated them for the award on the basis of their work with rescue dogs. The company has volunteered with rescues such as Elgin’s Rescue Warriors and Hainesville’s Wagging Hearts to train and socialize foster dogs.

“We work with them, train them, socialize them,” Lisa Harvey said.

“We kind of help them integrate into life for a little bit and help them find homes.”

Mark Harvey said the company has about 30 to 35 dogs at the facility daily, and they still count the first dog they worked with in 2010 as a customer.

He said the company sets itself apart with its level of involvement with the dogs. For example, rather than putting dogs in kennels, the company always has a staff member at the facility overnight to care for them.

“Dogs are people’s children.

If you add a personal touch and treat their children like your children, they’re going to come back. It’s a trust factor.”

PRAIRIE GROVE – Motorists should expect delays next week as road work begins on Ames Road.

Milling and asphalt patching are expected to begin Tuesday and continue through Friday, July 22.

The village asks drivers to use caution when they see workers and advises motorists to plan an alternate route to avoid possible delays.

Tips For Your Car’s AC In The Summer SPONSORED BY

How you first turn on your air conditioning when you enter your vehicle can make a difference in how quickly you become comfortable.

Obviously, as a driver you want to be as comfy as soon as possible, so it’s likely that you turn the air on full blast just as you start the engine. That’s a good approach, but what many drivers fail to also do is to open all of the windows in the vehicle. While you may think this is counterintuitive because you’re seemingly letting in hot air, what actually is happening is the AC unit is pushing the hot air out of the windows so your car will cool much quicker. Then, once you’re comfortable with the temperature, you can roll up your windows and cruise.

Now, if you’re in the unfortunate situation that you believe you’re AC unit isn’t functioning properly and 90-plus

degree days are in the forecast, your best bet is to visit your trusted auto shop, such as Gary Lang Auto Group. Have its mechanics inspect your AC unit to make any needed repairs so you’re not stuck on the road sweating profusely without the comforts of AC. Since you can imagine how miserable your commute would be without AC, treat it with respect and care. Whenever you get fairly close to your destination, turn off the AC unit. You can still use your fan and that should keep the car cool until you park.

Speaking of parking, if you can find a shady spot or a parking garage, both can help keep your car a bit cooler upon reentry. Another affordable option is to purchase a sunshade to put on your windshield. In addition, after parking for the day, cracking the windows a bit will provide a bit of airflow and minimize the greenhouse effect.

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Don’t put yourself in a position in which you are forced to learn something the hard way. Being honest with yourself as well as others will be necessary if you want to reach your goal, find happiness or ease your stress. Take the steps required to make things happen and put the past behind you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Improve what you have to offer and apply for or demonstrate your interest in a new position. Don’t leave one job until you have a signed contract to work elsewhere.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – If you look for adventure, you’ll find it. Your involvement in

activities or social events will stir up interest in a loved one. A passionate encounter looks promising.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Troubles at home will make you ask questions and consider alternatives. Turn any lemon you are handed into lemonade. Once you get started, you’ll be difficult to stop.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Get the lowdown on what’s going on behind the scenes at work or home before you venture in a direction that will lead to a roadblock. Do your research.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Figure out if the changes going on around you are going to disrupt your world. Position yourself in a safety zone to protect against loss or being made a scapegoat.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Keep busy and stay out of trouble. Make some positive changes to your home that will help you cut your overhead, leaving you more cash for personal entertainment.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Tie up loose ends and enjoy the weekend. Sign up for activities that include a loved one. Don’t limit what you can do just because someone else makes a bad choice.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Be realistic when assessing a partnership. If things haven’t been fair lately, you are best off airing your differences and making changes before it’s too late.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Someone will use emotional tactics to alter your way of thinking.

Don’t get involved in cult groups or with those

trying to denigrate your choice of lifestyle or beliefs.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – An event that allows you to use all your skills and attributes will pump up your ego and encourage you to bring about positive change. Romance is in the stars.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Change is inevitable. Size up what’s happening and look for the best possible way to take advantage of the situation. You can come out on top if you take action.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Surround yourself with people you can learn from. Mental stimulation will lead to physical changes and a closer bond between you and a loved one.

Greater stability is within reach.

State report shows Illinois facing $8 billion deficit

By JOHN O’CONNOR and SOPHIA TAREEN

Illinois Comptroller Leslie Geissler Munger addresses a news conference on the state budget Thursday in Chicago.

The Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD – The state of Illinois’ spending will outstrip what it brings in by nearly $8 billion this year despite a stopgap budget agreement last month, according to a government analysis first obtained Thursday by The Associated Press.

The Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability reviewed the budget deal that lawmakers and Gov. Bruce Rauner approved in June on the brink of the new fiscal year, which began this month, at the behest of Republican Rep. David David McSweeney McSweeney.

The report, provided to AP in advance of general release later Thursday, found that the state will spend $39.6 billion – including $3 billion in obligations that were not addressed in the six-month stop-gap budget agreed to by Democrats who control the Legislature and Rauner – but will bring in only $31.8 billion.

“We’re setting up a major disaster,” said McSweeney, a Barrington Hills

Chicago’s Wrigley Field is site of active-shooter drill

CHICAGO – Chicago first responders plan to simulate a large-scale active-shooter incident at Wrigley Field.

Thursday’s emergency response exercise will run from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. and include Chicago firefighters and police officers, the city’s emergency office and the Cubs. Police said the drill was planned months ago to coincide with Major League Baseball’s All-Star break this week. Cubs spokesman Julian Green said the team is happy to partner with law enforcement on the exercise to ensure a safe and secure environment.

Summer enrollment drops at U of Illinois 1st time in 6 years

URBANA – For the first time in six years, summer enrollment at the University of Illinois’ largest campus is down.

The News-Gazette in Champaign reported that enrollment at the Urbana-Champaign campus this summer is 11,214 – down by 470 students, or about 4 percent.

Summer enrollment had climbed every year since 2011, when it was 9,258.

In-state enrollment this summer is 5,616, while 3,407 foreign students are on campus.

University officials could not be reached immediately for comment.

log of overdue bills could reach $10 billion by December.

Rauner spokeswoman Catherine Kelly said the governor knows the stopgap plan is not a complete budget but used existing revenues from setaside funds to cover necessary costs.

However, she added, “The deficit is the result of years of our-of-control spending, mismanagement and court-ordered and statutory spending which have locked in higher spending levels.”

SIU planning to remove algae from Campus Lake

CARBONDALE – Southern Illinois University plans to remove toxic algae from Campus Lake in hopes people can get back on the water next year.

The Southern Illinoisan reported that officials at the Carbondale university have closed the lake for the past three summers because of blue-green algae.

People who have contact with the water can develop skin rashes. The algae also contribute to environmental problems.

Kevin Bame, who is SIUC’s vice chancellor for administration and business, said that after consulting with faculty and other experts, the university plans to drop the water level of Campus Lake. That will expose about 20 acres of shoreline, allowing the algae to dry out. It then will be disposed of or pulled to a deeper end of the lake.

The process is expected to cost around $300,000.

costs and union power and freeze property taxes to help boost the economy.

It’s difficult to find places to cut spending, said Dan Long, executive director of the bipartisan legislative commission: Required payments for state worker pensions increased by $300 million and interest on borrowed money by $240 million. The state’s contribution to Medicaid health care jumped $600 million. And in approving a full year’s funding for public schools, lawmakers increased spending by more than $500 million.

All the while, the state’s intake of money is expected to increase by only $400 million for the fiscal year.

“You can either repeal programs and cut spending, or find new revenue,” Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan spokesman Steve Brown said.

“You can’t do it all through cuts. This reaffirms what the speaker has been saying for several years and reaffirms that the decision to let the income tax go down probably was not the wisest decision.”

Rauner took office in January 2015 and got his wish to roll back an income tax surcharge, which had been 5 percent and produced $7 billion in new revenue each year, to 3.75 percent.

Enrollees of failed Ill. insurance co-op face high costs

CHICAGO – Officials said Illinois residents with Land of Lincoln Health insurance won’t be able to transfer what they’ve paid in copays and deductibles to new plans after the failing nonprofit company goes out of business.

Illinois Department of Insurance spokesman Michael Batkins told The Associated Press that the company’s 49,000 customers likely will have to start with a new deductible and out-of-pocket maximum. He said that was why the department advocated for the federal government to offset the payment the company owed.

“This could be very disruptive for people who either liked Land of Lincoln’s provider network or had met their deductible and other out-of-pocket limits,” said Stephani Becker, a health care policy analyst at the Chicago-based Sargent Shriver

National Center on Poverty Law. The 3-year-old startup took steps to shut down Tuesday after losing $90 million in 2015 and more than $17 million through May 31. The final blow came a few weeks ago when the co-op received a $31.8 million bill from the federal government that it couldn’t afford to pay.

Algonquin resident Cheryl Mostowski told the Chicago Tribune that the company’s demise makes her feel frustrated and discouraged. She has met the $1,350 deductible on her 2016 plan and has almost reached her $3,200 out-ofpocket maximum.

Becker said she other consumer advocates in Illinois have reached out to the insurance department to see if regulators will consider allowing enrollees to transition to new plans without resetting their deductibles and other out-of-pocket payments.

Trump holds off announcing VP pick, cites France attacks

By JULIE PACE and JILL COLVIN The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Donald Trump abruptly postponed plans to announce his vice presidential pick after a day of rampant speculation, citing the “horrible attack” in Nice, France, that left scores dead.

Trump had planned to hold his first event with his yet-to-be-named running mate Friday morning in New York. He announced the change of plans Thursday evening on Twitter.

The stunning announcement raised questions about the status of Trump’s selection process. Indiana Gov. Mike Pence had emerged as a late favorite for the job, although Trump said he had not finalized the pick and advisers cautioned he could change his mind.

“I haven’t made my final, final decision,” Trump said on Fox News Channel. He said that while his running mate selection would “absolutely not” be changed by the France attack, he did not feel it was appropriate to hold a news conference in its aftermath.

Dozens of people were killed late Thursday in the French resort city of Nice when a truck drove onto a sidewalk and plowed through a crowd of Bastille Day revelers who’d gathered to watch fireworks.

In addition to Pence, Trump’s short list included former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, according to people familiar with the candidate’s thinking.

After spending much of Thursday in Indianapolis, Pence flew to New York late in the day, according to a Republican familiar with the process. Indianapolis TV station WTHR posted a video showing Pence arriving at a private airport outside New York early Thursday evening.

Trump did not say when he planned to announce his running mate. He’s up against a clock: The Republican convention kicks off Monday in Cleveland.

Top party officials already are in Cleveland, grappling with a rules fight that increased the odds of nationally televised clashes at the convention. Talks broke down Thursday between party leaders and recalcitrant conservatives seeking to “unbind” convention delegates and let them back any presidential candidate they’d like.

Conservatives hope that would lead to delegates blocking Trump’s nomination.

The convention and vice presidential announcement give Trump back-to-back opportunities to reassure Americans – as well as leaders within his own party – that he’s prepared for the presidency.

Pence, a staunch conservative who served six terms in Congress, is seen as a running

Mike Pence, reported to be a late favorite as the running mate for Republican presumptive presidential candidate Donald Trump, speaks Thursday during the Innovation Showcase in Indianapolis. mate who would have the backing of GOP leaders and ease some of their concerns about Trump’s political inexperience and volatile temperament.

He has influential allies in Trump’s inner circle. But some of Trump’s children, who have been closely advising their father, are said to favor different candidates.

Campaign chairman Paul Manafort was among those urging caution in assuming any decision Thursday, saying on Twitter that Trump’s choice “will be made in the near future.”

As the day began, it appeared the decision would come quickly. Gingrich, the fiery Republican who helped define the political battles of the 1990s, told The Associated Press that Trump was supposed to let him know something in the afternoon. But by early evening, Gingrich told the AP he had heard nothing from Trump or others in the campaign.

Other Republicans with knowledge of the process said there had been no calls to Pence or Christie, either.

The top contenders have been vetted by a top Washington lawyer and all have spent time with Trump in recent days. But the final decision rests with the candidate, who is known for making decisions more on instinct than other factors – and for sometimes changing his mind.

Trump was in California on Thursday for several fundraisers. His schedule put him at a distance from many of his closest advisers, including Manafort and his three oldest children.

Pence is running for re-election, but Indiana law prevents him from seeking two offices at once. He faces a Friday deadline to withdraw from the governor’s race.

At forum, Obama confronts race issues bigger than police

By JOSH LEDERMAN and KEVIN FREKING The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – The son of the Louisiana man shot dead by police wants President Barack Obama to help end world racism. The mother of a policeman pleads for ways to keep her son safe. A single mom who has sent her son away from a rough Baltimore neighborhood worries over how to keep him safe when he’s home on the weekends.

America’s fraught debate about tensions between blacks and police spilled over Thursday into hang-wringing about societal problems beyond any one person’s capacity to fix – even the president. At a town hall meeting recorded to be broadcast in prime time, Obama cautiously offered suggestions, but no surefire solutions.

The good news, Obama said, is at least people are finally talking about the problems. Calling for “open hearts,” he urged Americans not to cloister themselves in separate corners.

“Because of the history of this country and the legacy of race, and all the complications that are involved with that, working through these issues so that things can continue to get better will take some time,” Obama said.

More time than Obama has left in office, he readily conceded.

As 32-year-old Philando Castile’s funeral was underway in St. Paul, Minnesota, Obama took a question remotely from Diamond Reynolds, Castile’s girlfriend, who livestreamed the aftermath of his shooting by police on Facebook. She said she’s scared for her daughter’s future and asked the president, “What do we do?”

Choosing his words carefully, Obama said it’s key for officers to get to know the community they’re

protecting. Also critical, he said, was to better train police to avoid “implicit biases.”

“We all carry around with us some assumptions about other people,” Obama said. If people are honest with themselves, he added, “oftentimes there is a presumption that black men are dangerous.”

He offered a rare reflection on how he felt racism had affected him personally, recalling how as a young boy in Hawaii, a female neighbor didn’t recognize him and refused to ride in the same elevator. “In that sense, what is true for me is true for a lot of African-American men,” he said.

Another questioner, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, came with a different viewpoint. He implored Obama to more strongly condemn those who call for killing police, and to grant a national law enforcement group’s request that the White House be lit up with blue lights in solidarity.

The White House has declined that request, and Obama insisted he’s condemned anti-police rhetoric plenty already.

In a particularly tense moment at the end of the town hall, the daughter of a man who died in a police confrontation started screaming after being denied a chance to question the president. Erica Garner, daughter of Eric Garner, later met briefly with Obama in private, the White House said.

The question-and-answer session at a Washington theater capped a dizzying week for the president as he sought to connect with the public in a series of hastily arranged appearances: a meeting with police, a summit with law enforcement leaders and Black Lives Matter activists, a trip to Dallas to honor five white officers killed in a revenge attack.

“We are in a war with terrorists who want to strike us at any price and in a very violent way,” Cazeneuve said.

The ranking politician of the Alpes-Maritime department that includes Nice said the truck plowed into the crowd over a distance of 1.2 miles.

Many of those on the ground were in shorts and other summer clothing.

Eric Ciotti said on BFM TV that police killed the driver “apparently after an exchange of gunfire.”

The president of the Provence Alpes Côte d’Azur regional council, which includes Nice, said the truck was load-

ed with arms and grenades. Christian Estrosi told BFM TV that “the driver fired on the crowd, according to the police who killed him.”

Images being broadcast across French media showed revelers running for their lives down Nice’s palm tree-lined Promenade des Anglais, the famous seaside boulevard named for the English aristocrats who proposed its construction in the 19th century.

Video footage showed men and women – one or two pushing strollers – racing to get away from the scenes.

NICE, France – A truck loaded with weapons and hand grenades drove onto a sidewalk for more than a mile, plowing through Bastille Day revelers who had gathered to watch fireworks in the French resort city of Nice late Thursday. At least 80 people were killed before police killed the driver, authorities said.

Nice prosecutor Jean-Michel Pretre described a horrific scene, with bodies strewn along the road, and Sylvie Toffin, a press officer with the local prefecture, said the truck ran over people on a “long trip” down the sidewalk near Nice’s Palais de la Mediterranee, a building that fronts the beach.

Wassim Bouhlel, a Nice native who spoke to the AP nearby, said that he saw a truck drive into the crowd.

“There was carnage on the road,” he said. “Bodies everywhere.” He said the driver emerged with a gun and started shooting.

France’s Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said 80 people were killed, including children, and 18 were in critical condition, and the Paris prosecutor’s office announced an investigation for “murder, attempted murder in an organized group linked to a terrorist

with at least half a dozen bullet holes punched through its windshield.

It was not immediately clear who would have been behind an attack, but France has recently seen a spate of dramatic assaults by jihadist groups, including the Islamic State group which straddles Iraq and Syria.

President Francois Hollande said in a televised statement that all of France was under an “Islamist terrorist threat” and extended by three months a state of emergency that has been in place since the November attacks that killed 130 in Paris was to end July 26.

The decision needs parliamentary approval.

“The terrorist character (of the attack) cannot be denied,” he said.

Hollande said he was calling a defense council meeting Friday that brings together defense, interior and other key ministers, then heading to Nice. He listed several measures to bolster security in France after two waves of attacks last year that killed 147 people. Besides continuation of the state of emergency and the Sentinel operation with 10,000 soldiers on patrol, he said he was calling up “operational reserves,” those who have served in the past and will be brought in to help police, particularly at French borders.

Protect yourself from mosquitoes As of this week, the Illinois Department of Public Health is reporting 26 in-state cases of Zika virus, a virus you’ve likely heard of as it has gained increased coverage and exposure in the past few months.

Zika can cause birth defects for the children of pregnant women as well as milder symptoms such as fever, rash, joint and muscle pain, red eyes and headaches.

Officials said the For the record probability of an outbreak here in There are steps you can take McHenry County is to protect yourself from being slim because the Aebitten by a West Nile-infected des aegypti mosquito mosquito and to help prevent that transmits the Zika. disease rarely is seen in Illinois, cannot survive freezing temperatures and is not expected to become an established population here.

That’s good news, but the fact that there are multiple documented cases of Zika means it’s still a good idea to remain vigilant against possible contraction. The larger concern for this area for a mosquito-borne virus is still a familiar one: West Nile virus.

According to previous Northwest Herald reporting, a Lake in the Hills man became McHenry County’s second human case of West Nile virus in October 2015. Last year, 13 mosquito batches and four birds tested positive for the virus in McHenry County.

The health department said those severely infected with West Nile can suffer symptoms such as headache, high fever, stiff neck, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, paralysis and, in rare cases, death.

There are steps you can take to protect yourself from being bitten by a West Nile-infected mosquito and to help prevent Zika.

Follow these tips from the health department: • Wear shoes, socks, long-sleeved shirts and pants when outdoors for long periods of time or when mosquitoes are most active – usually dawn and dusk.

• When possible, avoid the outdoors during peak biting times – dawn and dusk.

• Spray clothing with insect repellent.

• Apply insect repellent sparingly to exposed skin by following label directions. Some experts recommend lower concentrations for children.

Check with your doctor before applying insect repellent on infants, and wash your hands after using insect repellent.

By taking the proper precautions, you can reduce your exposure.

ANOTHER VIEW

Speech full of truth, pain, hope Dallas’ response in the days since five of our police officers were murdered demonstrates that our city can help show America how to heal its divisions over race and ease tensions over police violence.

That was the message President Barack Obama delivered Tuesday, and we couldn’t agree more.

The shooter, Obama noted, was motivated by racial hatred, but the white officers he killed had been motivated by love and service. Dallas has responded with more love and unity in the days since.

That’s a recipe for hope, the president said.

We weren’t waiting for the President to tell us we’ve done what is right. We feel it in our bones, and see it in our neighbors’ faces. But the words are welcome anyway.

The service at the Meyerson

Symphony Center was poignant and pitch-perfect. It was an appropriate capstone for five painful days that, despite our tears, showed Dallas at its best.

Protesters were all around, but their signs called for love to triumph over hate.

Dallas Police Chief David Brown’s Stevie Wonder moment will not soon be forgotten, nor the cheers it brought. Sen. John Cornyn praised our fallen officers powerfully, and still called on all of us to have needed conversations about race and criminal justice.

Former President George W. Bush spoke for us when he told America we have lost five members of our family. He reminded us, too, Americans can dream their biggest dreams when men and women in uniform stand guard. He added, gently, those guardians do best when they are trusted, trained

and accountable.

But it was Obama who said the things that most needed saying. Words, he warned, are inadequate.

“I’ve seen how inadequate words can be in bringing about lasting change. I’ve seen how inadequate my own words have been,” he said.

He went beyond words, however, when he urged us to confront the racism we too often ignore. It is real, and the protesters like the ones in our streets last Thursday speak from places of pain and desperation. We must hear them even as we honor our police.

That’s what Dallas can do, and the good news is we’ve already begun.

As Obama said: “Weeping may endure for a night, but I’m convinced joy comes in the morning.”

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.

Monarchy would right the ship

To the Editor: It’s become quite apparent to me this democracy thing is not working. From a pool of 325 million people and an endless parade to the ballot box, we end up with Trump against Clinton. The votes cast in November will be based on the level of dislike, in other words, which candidate can you stomach long enough to keep the cookies down.

I would like to suggest we go back to a monarchy, a time when a peasant was a peasant and ethnicity or religion did not play a role, a time when the only entitlement was a trip to the poor farm and political correctness was a dress code.

So where is the royal lineage you ask?

How about George Washington, father of our country? Why not anoint his bloodline?

I know he fought against the monarchy of King George III, but if he were here today and saw what passes for presidential, he’d give a thumbs up. With a little help from Ancestry.com we could find a direct descendant, and even if that person worked

VIEWS Francis Wilkinson from a conservative network of allies, including the religious right. But it completely has forfeited influence with Democrats, who have concluded they have nothing to lose in becoming a party fully devoted to gun regulation.

With the GOP publicly unraveling, congressional Democrats appear poised to grow stronger. That’s not good for the NRA. Similarly, extremism has been profitable for the NRA. But as the GOP is learning, there is no easy route back from the fringe.

First, the NRA’s political power and fundraising depend on maintaining paranoia at a screaming pitch.

Second, the NRA has its own tea party problem. Gun groups that are even more extreme are ever eager to label the NRA a sellout – too willing to appease liberals or compromise freedom or indulge the girly-man politics of the mainstream.

When Open Carry Texas, a band of gun extremists, first began terrifying patrons and workers in Texas restaurants, the NRA mumbled disapproval. Under pressure from its fringier rivals, the NRA quickly reversed itself.

Extremism, of course, is a tricky

at a Chili’s, I’d like to give it a shot.

We would keep a Congress as purely ceremonial; they could not enact legislation, not unlike what’s happening today.

Besides, if we did away with Congress, how could you ever fill the 24-hour news cycle? We need Washington to blather on and a monarchy to right the ship.

To the Editor: Anyone who spends money for food, and that is most of us, understands that anything that makes food more expensive to produce makes it more expensive to buy.

We take our local conservation agencies too much for granted. They have kept the costs of farming from skyrocketing out of control, and in so doing, have helped keep food prices affordable.

But, state funding for soil conservation has declined over the past eight years, according to Mike Rahe, manager of Illinois’ 97 soil and water conservation districts.

game. If you don’t convert the country to your cause, you risk being marginalized. That’s already happening to the NRA in liberal states. The trend may expand.

Like open carry, NRA ideology doesn’t hold up well in real life. “Good guys with guns” too often turn out to be bad guys who kill. And what are the chances a very stupid, very reckless “good guy” eventually will shoot an innocent person while trying to be a hero? I’d guess the chances are quite high.

Demographic decline also beckons.

The growing parts of the population – Hispanics and Asians – generally support gun regulation, as do blacks.

The NRA’s old, white base is in steady decline as both a portion of the population and electorate.

It’s true the NRA retains cultural resonance as well as political power.

Writing in the Economist, Will Wilkinson noted the group is no outlier in American culture. “It is,” said Wilkinson (no relation), “an organic symptom of a widespread and deep-seated aspect of the American character.”

Wilkinson is correct, of course. Perhaps Americans gradually will accede to the radical expansion of gun-movement ideology – even to the sight of strange men walking grocery aisles with loaded weapons of war on their backs, muzzles dipping menacingly as they reach for the milk.

But the aggressive crouch that defines the gun movement is a defensive one. Like Trump’s troops, the movement perceives itself perpetually under siege. In places such as California and Hawaii, which continue to strengthen gun regulation, it pretty much is. (Question: What are the demographics of those two states like?

Answer: The future.)

Demography may be the NRA’s most obvious source of insecurity. But the American body count also may prove unsustainable. Guns are used in 100,000 shootings annually, causing more than 30,000 deaths. That’s a staggering price to pay for policies specifically designed to facilitate gun possession, willy-nilly.

On some level, those most enamored of firearms must sense their victories, including a highly qualified 5-4 Supreme Court ruling written by a Supreme Court justice who now is deceased, are fragile. Technology, politics, demography and reason itself eventually will gang up to defeat a movement that demands guns for everyone, anywhere, all the time, for any reason, regardless of the consequences and in defiance of every civilized norm the world over.

In other words, maybe the NRA isn’t crazy to be paranoid.

During this decline, the percentage of state farmland losing more soil than is being built has doubled to about 20 percent. Not only is there less funding for maintaining existing conservation practices, but fewer farmers are being recruited to adopt such practices.

This trend bodes ill for food prices in years to come, as well as for our ability to sequester carbon and mitigate climate change as well as to prevent regional flooding.

The National Rifle Association is not only a constituent part of the Republican Party. It is in some ways a microcosm of it. Its demographics: an aging, male, non-urban, racially anxious, white base. Its policy prescriptions: outlier positions unsupported by science. Its politics: defensive and bitterly opposed to compromise.

Like the GOP, which dominates state governments and has reached peak numbers in Congress, the NRA appears to be at the height of its considerable powers. It is well-funded, professionally staffed and deeply entrenched in U.S. politics, having fully hitched a major political party to its single cause.

NRA ideology is popular, often intuitive and packaged in easily digested talking points and aphorisms – “good guy with a gun,” “if guns are outlawed ...” – that are widely repeated by millions of gun enthusiasts.

The group has been racking up victories in conservative states that have adopted wholesale the movement creed that guns on campus, in bars, at church, in cars – guns everywhere – constitutes both a rational public policy and an extension of liberty.

Still, it’s more than likely that, for the NRA, it’s downhill from here.

In fact, some of the organization’s strengths may prove to be its undoing.

Having abandoned even a pretense of bipartisanship, the NRA benefits

Property owners: Get off my lawn, Pokémon!

By RYAN NAKASHIMA and MAE ANDERSON The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES – As throngs of “Pokémon Go” players traipse around to real-world landmarks in pursuit of digital monsters, some ticked-off property owners are asking to have their locations in the fictional Poké-verse removed.

For Valerie Janovic, a 19-year-old psychology major at Brandeis University, the game went too far when the image of a poison-gas-emitting pocket monster called “Koffing” was pictured near the U.S. Holocaust museum’s exhibit on World War II gas chamber victims. Her online petition to have the site removed from the game has collected more than 4,500 supporters by Thursday.

“I just don’t think people should be playing a game where people remember people who suffered and were tortured and who died,” she said.

Besides the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, several churches and cemeteries including Arlington National Cemetery want their in-game locations removed to keep crowds of players away.

The addictive, location-aware smartphone game gives digital incentives like “Pokéballs” as rewards for visiting real places. The locations, known as “Pokéstops” and “Gyms,” are based on landmarks submitted by players of Niantic’s earlier game, “Ingress.”

Niantic offers a form to request exclusion, but it’s neither automatic nor guaranteed. It’s a mystery how quick-

People stand in line to enter the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington in 2009.

The U.S. museum is requesting that smartphone users refrain from “catching” Pokémon when they are inside the museum. Museum Communications Director Andrew Hollinger told The Washington Post that officials are trying to reach game developers to get the museum removed as a location in the popular new “Pokémon Go” smartphone game. ly, if at all, Niantic will respond. Several requesters said they got a stock response saying, “Thank you for reporting this PokéStop/Gym. We will review and take appropriate action.”

At first, web designer Boon Sheridan was just mildly annoyed at the traffic and cars that blocked the driveway to an old church that has become his home in Holyoke, Massachusetts. It was labeled a “Gym” where players pit their Pokémon, or pocket monsters, against each other in battle. His attitude changed when his virtually obsessed visitors began leaving behind physical

trash.

“There’s a lovely public park across the street so we’ve suggested (developers) adjust the GPS coordinates,” he said.

At the East Renton Community Church in Renton, Washington, players have come by day and night, sometimes leaving the gates open, a potential invitation to criminal activity, office manager Rona Heenk said.

“We can’t possibly monitor it all the time, and we don’t have a way to discern whether or not the adults who are coming to play the game are just here

to play or ‘casing’ our location,” Heenk said.

Mobile Memorial Gardens, a cemetery in Mobile, Alabama, had a dozen gamers show up Wednesday, some walking around burial plots with cellphones in hand, others driving aimlessly down roads. President Timothy Claiborne said he’s all for people having fun, but would prefer they have it at a local park.

“This is private,” he said. “I owe it to the families we serve to provide a sense of decorum here.”

Ryan Calo, a University of Washington law professor, said private property owners may adopt a “Pokémon No Go” policy and bar players from physically entering their building or grounds. But he said there’s no legal right to compel the game’s creators to remove a location from its lines of code.

“It’s important to note that the Pokémon are not there on the property,” he said. “What’s happening is that a particular location triggers the display of a digital monster on your phone. The monster is only on your phone.”

Niantic, which has Japanese game company Nintendo as a major investor, didn’t respond to requests for comment.

To be sure, gaining designation in the game as a “Pokéstop” or “Gym” can be beneficial. Café owners have set up in-game lures to attract unique digital creatures in the hopes potential patrons with real money chase them into the store. The Adventure Park playground in a forested part of Maryland invited “Pokémon Go” players to come to take advantage of its lures this weekend and get $5 off admission.

LONDON – Britain’s Prince Harry has taken a nearly instant HIV test as part of his campaign to raise awareness about the virus.

The results of the simple finger-prick test were negative and Harry seemed relieved to find that he was not infected with the virus. Harry admitted before the test that he was nervous. The test at a sexual health clinic in London was filmed and broadcast Thursday. It takes only a few seconds and a small amount of blood for the test to be carried out.

Harry has followed the example of his late mother, Princess Diana, and sought to ease the stigma of HIV and AIDS.

Peter Dinklage of “Game of Thrones” was nominated for outstanding supporting actor in a drama series for his role as Tyrion Lannister.

‘Game of Thrones’ tops Emmy nods, but streaming makes gains LOS ANGELES – The Emmy Awards nominations told us what is already evident – the power and reputation of streaming services Netflix and Amazon are on the rise, and broadcast networks and even longtime premium cable star HBO are paying the price.

In Thursday’s announcement of prime-time Emmy contenders, television academy voters also signaled their regard for what people of color are bringing to the industry table: Each of the top acting categories included at least one minority nominee. It’s a reality the Oscars have yet to embrace.

Although HBO claimed the most nominations and the top nominee with fantasy epic “Game of Thrones,” the channel’s tally dropped from last year’s 126 nods to 94, a stunning change in what had been a steadily upward trajectory since its salad days of “Sex and the City” and “The Sopranos.”

Of the four major broadcast networks, ABC, CBS and Fox saw a drop in their positive Emmy feedback – with the exception, NBC, only holding yearto-year ground with 41 nominations.

In contrast, Netflix looked like a thoroughbred just starting to show what it can do. With buzz-provoking, critically acclaimed series’ including political drama “House of Cards” and documentary series “Making a Murderer,” the service grabbed 54 nods, compared to 34 last year.

Amazon collected fewer accolades but still made gains, with 16 nods this year versus 12 in 2015. The groundbreaking transgender-themed comedy “Transparent” is its Emmy standard-bearer with 10 nominations, including best comedy series and best lead actor, Jeffrey Tambor, who won last year.

Broadcast and cable are far from irrelevant. ABC’s “black-ish,” which brought the black family comedy back to network TV and with a sharply relevant edge, received a best comedy nod and recognition for its stars, Tracee Ellis Ross and Anthony Anderson.

Nursery décor grows up

By KIM COOK

The Associated Press When it comes to creating the perfect sleep space for little ones, there are more fun options than ever.

Styles range from haute to homespun, vintage to vanguard. A look at some of the best:

Blurring the Lines

Traditional parameters such as gender-specific motifs and colors, and room-specific furnishings, are giving way to a more free-spirited approach.

Designers are deploying to the nursery dressers, credenzas, art, lighting, mirrors and seating more typically found in grown-up rooms such as the master, dining or living room.

Joanna Gick and Jennifer O’Dowd, interior designers in Scottsdale, Arizona, like to use vintage dressers, toys and books as nursery inspiration. Art’s a big element, too.

“Gallery walls seem to be a hot trend,” Gick said. “The fun thing about them is they’re totally customizable to the child’s interests, and easy to swap out as they grow. We like to use mixed media – prints as well as wood and metal sculptures – to create a really interesting gallery.” (www.jandjdesigngroup.com)

Baby Glam

Parents-to-be should view the baby’s room as a place to let their own imaginations fly, said Naomi Alon, owner of the Irvine, California-based Little Crown Interiors.

“I encourage my clients to think about the nursery as their inner child’s fantasy space,” she said. “This is the one room in their home where they can get away with neon pink wallpaper or an over-the-top chandelier. The nursery is just as much about the parents as it is about the baby, and making it a place where mom and dad feel comfortable is key.”

In one of Alon’s favorite projects, a nursery in Newport Beach, California, she used pink and gold damask wallpaper, a baroque mirror, organza furniture skirts and a big fluffy rug to create a glamorous, girly confection.

Mod Modern

As in the rest of the home, decor in the nursery is revisiting the past. Midcentury and ’70s- and ’80s-era cribs and other furniture bring in style elements that can match the home’s aesthetic.

Room & Board, DwellStudio and AllModern have great options.

Gick and O’Dowd did a feature wall in a boy’s room that featured a big, ’70s-style geometric design and balanced it with a similarly bold rug.

Garnet Hill’s got butterfly chairs from Argentina with canvases embroidered with boho crewelwork designs.

“There’s no better decade for kid’s decor,” she said. “The trend is all about bold, playful color and pattern – it’s over-the-top and just plain silly.”

Land of Nod partnered with Kansas City-based studio Ampersand on a whimsical bedding collection stitched with rainbows and geometrics, in retro color combos such as pink, blue, red and turquoise. (www.landofnod.com)

Prep School

Crisp stripes and a palette of whites, navy, reds, greens, yellows and oranges create a preppy vibe.

“Almost any color pops with navy,” Gick said, and it works for both boys’ and girls’ rooms.

Pottery Barn Kids’ Harper bedding collection pairs white with chevrons, dots or stripes in bright hues. Monogrammed wall art ties it all together.

Neutral Territory

Even parents-to-be who know their baby’s gender may prefer a neutral nursery. Beyond yellow, gender-neutral decor includes gray, greige and cream along with muted, chalky pastels.

Julia Rothman’s wallpaper patterns are a good example: Hand-drawn birds and clouds move across the wall in soft, daydream-y hues. (www.hyggeandwest.com)

As I drove home from our final tournament of the travel baseball season, it hit me. How can it be the end of the baseball? What on earth will we do with ourselves?

This was our son Jackson’s second season playing travel ball. Two years ago, I was our family’s holdout on signing up for the 10U (10 years and under) team. Travel baseball scared me. I worried about giving up all of our free time to practices, games and tournaments. I worried about overly competitive kids, parents and coaches.

I worried a lot but agreed to give it a shot.

Going into our first 10U tournament last year in Rockford, I was silently questioning our decision. Were we really going to play our games in rainy, 40-something-degree temperatures … and have fun doing it? Yes, we did play. And yes, it really was fun, thanks to a great group of kids, coaches and families.

As it turns out, travel baseball is one of the best things that has happened to us. Yes, it absolutely drives our lives and fills our calendars from April to July – when, depending on Mother Nature’s mood for Midwest baseball – it seems like we’re either shivering through or sweating out the

BOSTON – Toy guns, kiddie pools, hoverboards and backyard trampolines are among the playthings that made a consumer watchdog’s annual list of hazardous summer toys.

The Massachusetts-based World Against Toys Causing Harm, or W.A.T.C.H., presented the report.

Joan Siff, W.A.T.C.H.’s president, said the toys specifically named on the list aren’t the only risky playthings on the market. She said they’re simply meant to represent the range of hazards faced by children with summer toys.

The nonprofit group notes some toy guns shoot projectiles with enough force to cause eye injuries while toy helicopters, boomerangs and other flying objects have rigid or sharp edges that can cause facial injuries.

The group also urges parents to take caution when their children use baby pools, inflatable pool toys and flotation aids. Inflatable bounce houses and backyard trampolines also made the list.

The summer months account for nearly half of all injury-related deaths to children.

Chasing Lyons Maria Lyons games … and sometimes both. But on those perfectly sunny summer days – like the weekend we just had – there’s no place we’d rather be than out at the ballfield.

Parenting is funny. In the all-consuming world of babies and small children, you look forward to those days when things will get a little easier as your kids become more independent. But it feels like as soon as you get there, the countdown clock starts and you begin thinking about how much time you have left before they’re all grown up and out the door. As crazy as travel ball schedules can be, there’s a serenity to sitting through six innings and pressing pause on everything else but family time.

The 11U season was special as we watched our boys grow and develop as players and as a team, racking up nearly triple the wins they had last season and emerging tournament champions over a glorious Memorial Day weekend in Lake Geneva. Personalities came out and team bonds

deepened over spectacular plays and also a few heartbreaking losses. This thought struck me over Father’s Day weekend during a game my family missed. Although Kevin and Jackson were fishing and Mally and I were at home, we were all celebrating the news we got in multiple text messages that Myles hit a grand slam over the fence!

And a shout-out to Mally and the baseball sisterhood, who found creative ways to pass the time while attending dozens and dozens of their brothers’ games. We should get them medals next year.

Our tournament in Watertown, Wisconsin, this past weekend was the closer of our season with three great wins and a tear-jerker, one-run loss in the semi-finals. Despite the lumps in all of our throats, the boys smiled for post-season pictures and thanked their coaches. If you love baseball like we do, you couldn’t ask for more in a season.

32 Alzheimer’s research focuses on proteins Dear Dr. K: Is there anything new on the horizon for treatment of Alzheimer’s disease?

Dear Reader: Alzheimer’s disease affects more than 5 million people in the United States, alone. And that number is expected to more than double by 2050. I spoke to my colleague Dr. Gad Marshall about advances in Alzheimer’s treatment. He is an assistant professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School.

Medical research has discovered two proteins found in the brain are important in causing Alzheimer’s disease. The first is called amyloid-beta. This protein clumps together to form plaques in the brain. These plaques long have been recognized as a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease.

Unfortunately, drugs and vaccines that target amyloid-beta so far have not proved very effective. The problem might be by the time Alzheimer’s symptoms appear, plaque formation is already extensive. Much damage already has been done, and treatment may come too late.

Through research, doctors have developed techniques for spotting plaques of amyloid-beta when they are first forming, in younger adulthood. With that tool in hand, doctors now are conducting large studies to see whether treatment to lower amyloid-beta levels at a much earlier stage will reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.

Recently, new potential treatments have focused on a different protein: tau. Tau clumps together in the brain to form what are called “tangles.” Like the plaques of amyloid-beta, the tau tangles long have been a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. Tau helps to transport nutrients into the cells and to move waste out of cells.

However, when tau protein forms tangles, brain cells have trouble getting enough nutrients and eliminating waste. As a result, brain cells slowly die. In a recent

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff report in the journal Brain, researchers examined the brains of more than 3,600 people who had died. They concluded the presence of dysfunctional tau protein might be more important than amyloid-beta in causing the cognitive decline and memory loss seen in Alzheimer’s.

Tau tangles occur early in the disease process. The hope is by designing treatments that target tau, we can prevent symptoms of Alzheimer’s, or slow down symptoms in those who already have signs of dementia.

The challenge is to focus on the right ones.

You need normal tau protein in the brain.

The trick is to remove only the abnormal tau protein that is damaging nerve cells.

Several tau-focused drugs are in development. They include: • LMTX. This drug is supposed to reduce the clumping together of abnormal tau proteins.

• TPI 287. This drug is designed to stabilize the nerve cell microtubules that are damaged by abnormal tau proteins.

• Nilotinib. This FDA-approved leukemia drug is thought to help clear abnormal tau from the brain.

Leading Alzheimer’s researchers are optimistic that effective tau-focused treatments will be available within the next five to 10 years. You can learn about studies underway to treat Alzheimer’s disease at www.clinicaltrials.gov. It lists the studies that actively are recruiting patients.

contact a long-lost relative is a very personal one. Because your husband and his (possible) half-brother are both adults, I can’t see how reaching out would be harmful to the man. A way to do it would be for Pete to send him an email or a letter, explain who his biological father was and ask if there is any interest in further contact.

Dear Abby: My husband and I divorced 10 years ago. There were no children involved.

After the divorce, we occasionally would get together for a meal. It was during those times we managed to work through our issues and move forward with our separate lives.

Since then, we have remained in contact occasionally to say happy birthday or update the other on work. We also are friends on Facebook, but our contact does not involve discussion of love interests, family, etc.

Eight years ago, I met a wonderful man who accepts me for who I am. He also understands and supports the type of contact I have with my ex. My beau and I finally have decided to take the plunge and be married. What is the etiquette for letting my ex-husband know I am remarrying? – Second Time Around In Utah Dear Second: Convey that information personally. Because you are on speaking terms, call him and share the happy news. I think he will appreciate hearing it straight from you, just as you would if the situation were reversed.

Dear Abby: There’s an ongoing debate among my group of friends about using the word “texted.” When I used it, I was corrected, chastised and told it is not a word.

I realize “text” is not a verb, however, times have certainly changed, and many new words and expressions have been added to our vocabulary. Would it only be correct to say, “I sent a text”? Please settle this for us. – Busted By The

husband, “Pete,” is an only child.

His mom, who was married, had an affair with a married man, which resulted in his birth. His mother’s husband put his name on the birth certificate, but as a kid, Pete had contact from time to time with his biological father. Both dads have since passed away.

Pete has known for years his biological father had an older son, but he doesn’t know if the son knows he exists. Pete now thinks he might have found his half-brother online and wants to reach out to see if he wants a relationship.

How do we even begin to broach this with the half-brother? Is it worth it? – Family Mat-

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

ALGONQUIN

THURS, FRI, SAT 9-4 1035 Wakigan Trail

One of our more popular quotes-persons, A.N. Other, said, “Nobody trips over mountains. It is the small pebble that causes you to stumble. Pass all the pebbles in your path, and you will find you have crossed the mountain.”

At the bridge table, you can occasionally trip up by not watching the spot-cards closely, but more often it is an honor-card that will be your downfall -- as it was for the original South in this deal. What should he have done in three no-trump after West led his fourth-highest heart, East put up the jack, and South won with his king? What do you think of the auction?

I like the bidding ... unless you and your partner use minor-suit transfers (which are recommended only for regular partnerships). If curious, go to phillipalderbridge.com/ TRANSFER.HTM. Declarer started with seven top tricks: three spades, one heart (the first trick), two diamonds and one club. Obviously the diamonds will provide the necessary extra winners, but some care is required.

South cashed his diamond king at trick two and fell flat on his face.

Even if he had led a low diamond from hand, he would still have tripped, given the 4-0 split.

Since trick one had marked West with the heart ace, declarer should have led a spade to dummy’s jack and run the diamond jack. Here, the finesse would have won and South would have taken 11 tricks. But even if West could have won with the diamond queen, South’s heart queen would have been a stopper, and the contract would have been safe.

Do not avoid a perfect avoidance play.

CLC’s Schurter runs away with senior girls title

By ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com BULL VALLEY – A “kind of perfect” first round Wednesday that resulted in a personal best 3-over-par 74 in the McHenry County Jr. Amateur Tournament at Boone Creek allowed Crystal Lake Central’s Rylie Schurter a rare chance to relax Thursday.

“Honestly, everything just kind of clicked for me (in the first round),” said Schurter, who had an eight-stroke lead after the first round in the senior girls division.

“I was hitting my drives super far, so I was able to have good approach shots. Everything was kind of perfect.

I know it’s kind of weird to say perfect, but it really was.”

Schurter, a Northwest Herald All-Area honorable mention a year ago, didn’t match her first-round score on a much windier second day. But the junior, who figures to be among the top

Division champions Winners Thursday in the MCJGA McHenry County Junior Amateur at Boone Creek (36hole event except for junior girls, which is 18 holes): Senior girls Rylie Schurter 74-82–156 +14 Junior girls Neha Karna 47-44–91 +20 Senior boys Daniel Leitner 77-82-159 +17 Junior boys Matt Szmajda 77-76–153 +11 golfers competing on the Crystal Lake Central co-op in the fall, did more than enough to keep her lead in the McHenry County Junior Golf Association event.

With a second-round 82, Schurter coasted to the senior girls division title with a two-day score of 156. Jacobs senior Stephanie Fiorentino placed

second with a 166, and Huntley senior Nicole Gordus (173) was third.

Schurter, who last year shot a 90 in the McHenry County Tournament at Boone Creek, said she focused on improving her short game in the days leading up to the tournament. Her 74 on Day 1 was the lowest of the tournament.

“I was sinking a lot of putts that I normally wouldn’t,” said Schurter, who had four birdies in two days. “I practiced my putting a lot before this tournament and it really paid off. ...

With the long game, it’s just little fixes.

But it’s the short game that really makes the huge difference.”

In the senior boys division, Jacobs junior Daniel Leitner overcame a twostroke deficit to clinch the title with a 159. Leitner went from third to first with an 82 after shooting 77 in the first round.

Prairie Ridge junior James Michaelson fell one stroke short and placed second with a 160, and Marengo senior Connor Wascher (162) took third. Myles Miller and Joe Thompson also had 162s, but Wascher won the tiebreaker with a lower second-round score (75).

“My mindset was just to have a good round, just play my game, have fun and try to do the best I can,” said Leitner, who went 1 under on his final four holes to come back and win. “I hit my driver pretty well all day, and I just got up and down pretty well on the back.”

Leitner has seen big gains in his game leading up to his junior year at Jacobs – the defending Fox Valley Conference champion – and credits the work of his family and Randall Oaks assistant pro Bob Mertel, who has worked with Leitner for the past four years.

“I’m just working on my iron game, and making sure I’m hitting greens in regulation,” he said. “My family has

been great working with me, and Randall Oaks has been there to help and teach me along the way.”

Wauconda sophomore Matt Szmajda knocked in four birdies in the second round, shooting a 77 and a 76 to win the junior boys title with a two-day score of 153. Cary-Grove sophomore Trevor Brandon was second with a 159, and Lake in the Hills’ Jack Benoit (160) took third.

“I knew if played well, things would fall into place, and I could have a chance at winning,” Szmajda said. “I was putting really well today. I had OK approach shots, but my putting helped make up for that.”

Elgin Academy’s Neha Karna won the junior girls division, shooting 47 and 44 for a two-day total of 91. Prairie Ridge sophomore Morgan Taylor and Jacobs sophomore Jenna Walker both had a 97, with Taylor winning the tiebreaker for second place.

“Yesterday, my hitting was going in all different directions,” Karna said.

“Today the balls were kind of going straight. My putting wasn’t as good today, but it still worked out.”

People work so they can attain the basic essentials of life – food, clothing and shelter.

There are secondary reasons, but people primarily work so they can earn enough money to provide the necessities for themselves and their families.

What happens though when they suddenly can no longer work due to injuries sustained while in the workplace?

Thankfully, there are workers’ compensation laws in the state of Illinois to protect employees who are injured or become ill on the job because of a harmful work condition.

Unfortunately, many who suffer don’t get the protection they need soon enough or at all, and trying to grasp the system that’s in place isn’t easy to comprehend, especially for someone who is currently suffering.

Those put into such a precarious situation need to reach out to a law professional that is an expert in workers’ compensation cases, such as Franks Gerkin McKenna (FGM)

Law. In fact, senior partner, Herb Franks, has served as chairman of the Illinois State Bar Association’s Workers’ Compensation Council and has helped many clients obtain recoveries from occupation and work injuries.

FGM Law recognizes that all kinds of injuries can happen in the workplace and its professionals work meticulously to uncover all the details of a particular injury case. Its proven attorneys are passionate, experienced litigators who make filing for workers’ compensation or appealing denials a top priority. They give you the protection you deserve.

Workers’ compensation cases can be complicated and that’s why it’s imperative that clients reach out for legal counsel. Time also plays a huge role.

The reality is that injuries can happen at any time at any place. If something happens to you, what are you going to do about those costly bills and missed paychecks?

Hopefully you choose a lawyer that has the answer that you want to hear.

4 WATER POLO

Ex-McHenry athlete’s ordeal part of ESPN episode NORTHWEST HERALD

Becca Dabrowski

ESPN’s “Outside the Lines” will broadcast a segment at 8 a.m.

Sunday about Becca Dabrowski, a former member of the McHenry boys water polo team, who, according to an Outside the Lines tweet, said she was sexually as-

saulted under the water by a male opponent.

ESPN announced the program in a tweet Thursday that was accompanied by a short video previewing the show. In the video, Dabrowski said, “It was probably one of the worst days of my life.”

Dabrowski’s family, McHenry

water polo coach Craig Fowles and former McHenry teammates have not returned calls to the Northwest Herald or refused to comment about the story.

Sources told the Northwest Herald the incident happened May 14, 2015, against Libertyville during a playoff game.

The Northwest Herald has a public records request out to the McHenry and Libertyville school districts about the matter and has tried to contact officials from both school districts.

Dabrowski is a sophomore on the Monmouth College women’s water polo team.

RICHMOND-BURTON FOOTBALL

Wagner trims college choice to 3

OL says Indiana, Arkansas, Okla. remain in play

By JON STYF

jstyf@shawmedia.com RICHMOND – Richmond-Burton football player Dalton Wagner has narrowed his schools of interest to three: Arkansas, Oklahoma and Indiana.

Now, it’s time to show them to Mom. Over the next two weeks, Wagner hopes to visit Arkansas and Oklahoma again, this time with his entire family, including his mother, Nancy. Then, he could announce his decision as soon as “a week or two from now.”

“I’ve just got to get out there again,” the 6-foot-9, 300-pound senior offensive tackle said. “Mom is coming with now, the rest of the family is coming with me. This is my final stretch. I want her to see what I see and I want my whole family to see that I’ll be happy wherever I choose.”

Wagner delayed his visit to Arkansas because of SEC Media Days. Arkansas’ contingent spoke Wednesday.

“The Jerry Jones facility and all of that, it was absolutely impressive,” Wagner said.

Wagner took unofficial visits to Arkansas and Oklahoma this spring with his father, Brad.

“Their dorm sizes were like the size of an apartment,” Wagner said of Oklahoma, which has shown interest but has not yet extended a scholarship offer. “It was amazing. They were giant. Everything about these schools, they’re just extremely prestigious, and that’s the thing that draws me to all of them.

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

Richmond-Burton 6-foot-9, 300-pound lineman Dalton Wagner sets on the line during football camp Wednesday in Richmond. Wagner plans to visit Arkansas and Oklahoma again over the next two weeks before making a college choice. He also is considering Indiana.

Wagner has 20 offers, from the two schools mentioned earlier and Western Michigan, Illinois, Miami (Ohio), Louisville, Buffalo, Missouri, Toledo, Illinois State, Wyoming, Syracuse, Utah, Virginia, Central Florida, Southern Illinois, Cal-Berkeley, Tulane, Vanderbilt and Purdue.

“Their facilities and their coaching staff and the all-around culture of everything,” Wagner said of Indiana. “... All of these schools have been 100 percent real with me. It’s been a ride, and Indiana has been a part of it.”

Throughout the process, R-B coach Pat Elder said Wagner has been a great role model for younger players while not missing workouts and helping younger players, saying “Watching [his actions], you wouldn’t know he’s getting recruiting at the level he is.”

“Dalton has worked awful hard,” Elder said. “He’s big, but Dalton’s worked awful hard to be more than big.

He’s got great hips, he’s done a great job with his feet, he’s worked hard on being mobile. He’s extremely coachable.”

As for the decision, Elder is happy

that Wagner has been patient in the process and feels comfortable where he is at, choosing the schools that best fit him as finalists.

“I think he wants to be able to focus on playing here and enjoying his senior year,” Elder said. “... Most importantly, he feels he’s at a point in the recruiting process where he can make a choice down the road and all anyone talks about in that process is at some point, when you know you know. He thinks he’s getting close and that will be good for him to get that taken care of.”

CUBS

The Cubs’ Jake Arrieta hasn’t lasted seven innings in a start in a month.

regroup.

“I really do believe everybody got a little bit tired. I think the schedule beat us up a little bit,” manager Joe Maddon said, with emphasis on the 24 games in 24 days the Cubs played into the break – spread across five different cities.

“Our whole success is going to be contingent upon our starting pitching getting back to where it had been.”

For more than two months, the Cubs’ starting five was on a history-making

team.

“And when you have skids like this guys tend to press a little bit. … We’re all trying to find ways, especially with the starting pitching, how we’ve tried to set the tone all year.”

The Cubs have 74 games left to hold a seven-game lead over the Cardinals and 7½-game lead over the Pirates in the National League Central.

They don’t have to be as good as they were the first six to eight weeks of the season to do that. But their starters have to make it happen.

And that starts with All-Stars Jake Arrieta and Jon Lester pitching like AllStars the second half – especially Arrieta, who hasn’t lasted seven innings in a month and who has gone only 51/3 or fewer in seven of his past 14.

Maddon and both front-of-the-rotation starters insist nothing is physically wrong with either, Lester bristling at the insinuation after the second of two starts that totaled only 41/3 innings heading into the break.

They’ll get the most rest out of the break, pushed to Monday and Tuesday against the Mets.

“They set the tone in the first half, and I really anticipate they’re going to do the same thing in the second half,” Maddon said.

WHITE SOX

Sox need strong start to 2nd half to stay in it

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

ANAHEIM, Calif. – The White Sox open the second half of the season Friday with a fighting chance to make the postseason.

During that horrendous 10-26 run that came on the heels of an oh-so encouraging 23-10 start that some say was only fool’s gold, the Sox seemed to have no chance of playing more than 162 games in 2016. But their 12-7 spurt going into the All-Star break which produced five consecutive series wins before their disappointing series loss to the Atlanta Braves at U.S. Cellular Field last weekend served as a successful CPR effort.

At two games over .500, the Sox now see themselves in position to at least talk postseason, which All-Star Game starting pitcher Chris Sale felt free to do on the national stage this week.

“We’re in it,” Sale said. “We’re right where we want to be, we’re over .500. We have a chance.”

Had the Sox taken two of three from

the lowly Braves, or even swept them as they had designs on doing with Sale, fellow All-Star Jose Quintana and James Shields going to the mound, perhaps Sale could have said as much with his chest sticking out.

But the Sox, at 4543, may have simply demonstrated who they really are by losing that series: a .500 team with the ability to look like Chris Sale a slightly better outfit when things fall into place.

Sale and company know they have to keep winning series, starting with the Angels this weekend, wild-card contender Seattle next week on the road and the Tigers in a four game series when the Sox return home for four games Thursday.

After that they play the Cubs for four games, and when those are completed July 28, four days before the nonwaiver trade deadline, the front office might be in a better place to size up the enormi-

ty of the tough task at hand – which is either catching the Cleveland Indians, who lead them by seven games in the AL Central, or be one of two teams among themselves and seven others at .500 or above that must separate from the pack and claim a wild card berth.

If it looks like too daunting a task, some assets may be traded off, although indications are general manager Rick Hahn has enough confidence in his contract-controlled starting rotation to keep the guts of the current roster in place for another season with Jose Abreu, Adam Eaton, Todd Frazier, Brett Lawrie, Melky Cabrera and Tim Anderson under contract control through at least 2017. Frazier, Lawrie and Cabrera have one more year left of team control, the others multiple years.

Designated hitter Justin Morneau is getting ready to join the club soon, and right-hander Carson Fulmer, the No. 8 overall pick in the 2015 draft, could be on hand shortly to strengthen two needs – left-handed hitting and the bullpen.

Austin Jackson (knee surgery) doesn’t

appear to be close to coming back to strengthen the outfield, which is where Hahn is known to be looking for upgrades via the trade market, particularly in center field.

Sale knows Hahn and executive vice president Ken Williams historically have been apt to go for it rather than back down and retool. Players like Sale, always about the here and now, certainly hope that’s the case this year.

“The main thing is get to the playoffs,” Sale said after starting in the Midsummer Classic in San Diego. “Have a good second half and let’s get there.”

Notes: Twenty of the Sox’s next 29 games are on the road, including three each in August against AL Central nemeses Detroit, Kansas City and Cleveland, against whom the Sox are a combined 6-18. ... The Sox outrighted Triple-A right-hander Scott Carroll off the 40man roster Thursday. ... A corresponding move will be made Friday after the optioning of right-hander Chris Beck to Triple-A Charlotte before the All-Star break.

• Friday, July 15, 2016

CHICAGO – Make no mistake: The Cubs need their leadoff hitter, Dexter Fowler, back from the disabled list to be the team that got off to that best-inbaseball start the first two months of the season.

But don’t be fooled into thinking that will come close to solving the problems that led to their 6-15 slide into the AllStar break.

“The Cubs? They’re as good as their pitching takes them, said a longtime scout and executive for a National League team, who has scouted several Cubs series. “They might have the most flexible, deep lineup in baseball, when they’re healthy. But their starting rotation is obviously what makes them go.”

Or keeps them from going anywhere this year.

The Cubs open the second half of the season Friday against the Texas Rangers, who bring the American League’s best record to Wrigley Field.

And while many gush the next few days over things such as “World Series sneak peeks,” the thing that may say the most about whether the Cubs get a peek at all is how the starters look the next five days after a lengthy break to

pace that realistically was not sustainable.

But the performance as a group plummeted the past three weeks, with a 6.04 ERA during that 21-game slide.

And the rotation hasn’t even been good this month – as in zero quality starts in 10 starts in July.

Blame the injured position players, such as Fowler? The Cubs are 7-15 since the center fielder went on the DL. They’ve also averaged 5.0 runs a game in his absence (compared to 5.3 before).

The rotation problems also mean a bullpen that went into the season looking like it could use another back-end arm has been beaten up – guys such as Justin Grimm battling fatigue and Travis Wood getting leaned on hard in multiple roles.

That was only exacerbated by an influx of raw guys from Triple-A Iowa after lefty Clayton Richard (blister) was sent out to essentially work on his pitches, and Adam Warren was sent to the minors to stretch out for a spot start.

“It’s extremely hard on a pitching staff when you run through stretches like this, because you’re trying to keep guys healthy and sharp and not overuse them,” pitching coach Chris Bosio said.

“But when the starters aren’t doing their job, it makes it tough on the rest of the

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

TROON, Scotland – Phil Mickelson was 16 feet away from a place in history he wouldn’t have to share with anyone.

Fans watched from a rooftop balcony. Royal Troon members strained to see out the window from the clubhouse behind the 18th green. Jack Nicklaus usually doesn’t watch golf on TV, but he made an exception for this moment.

In 436 majors held over the past 156 years, no one had ever shot 62.

That’s still the case. By a fraction of an inch.

“I want to cry,” Mickelson said.

Mickelson pointed his putter toward the hole and was ready to step into history Thursday in the British Open when his birdie putt turned sharply to the right at the mouth of the hole, just enough to ride the edge around the back of the cup and sit there, teasing him.

“You made a beautiful read and putt on that last hole but got absolutely stonecold robbed,” Nicklaus said in a message on Facebook.

Mickelson plopped his hand on his forehead in disbelief. His caddie, Jim “Bones” Mackay, was so stunned he fell over backward.

“It was one of the best rounds I’ve ever played ... and yet I want to shed a tear right now,” Mickelson said. “That putt on 18 was an opportunity to do something historical. I knew it, and

Phil Mickelson reacts after lipping out a birdie putt on the 18th green during the first round of the British Open on Thursday at Royal Troon in Troon, Scotland. Mickelson shot an 8-under-par 63. with a foot to go I thought I had done it.

I saw that ball rolling right in the center. I went to go get it. I had that surge of adrenaline that I had just shot 62, and then I had the heartbreak that I didn’t.”

No tears were necessary at Royal Troon, not after a round of 63 that was brilliant even by Lefty’s standards, and certainly not after building a three-shot lead over Patrick Reed and Martin Kaymer on an ideal day by the Irish Sea. Mickelson seized the moment with a birdie on the par-5 16th from a bunker short of the green, and a 4-iron to 15 feet for birdie on the par-3 17th to reach 8-under par. He knew no one had ever shot 62 in a major. He also knew he most likely would never get a chance like this.

“That would have been really something special,” he said. “So to have that putt lip out, that’s going to sting for a

while.”

Even with such a close call, Mickelson is in good company.

Nicklaus missed a putt just inside 3 feet for a 62 in the 1980 U.S. Open at Baltusrol. Greg Norman had to only twoputt from 30 feet for a 62 at Turnberry in the 1986 British Open and took three putts. Tiger Woods watched his 15-foot putt for 62 spin 270 degrees around the cup in the 2007 PGA Championship at Southern Hills. Nick Price’s birdie putt for a 62 in the 1986 Masters dipped in and out of the cup.

Asked why there had never been a 62 in the major, Mickelson pointed to his putt.

“There’s a curse,” he said. “Because that ball should have been in.”

Continued from page 10 It wasn’t for a lack of effort. He went with a 6-iron to play a baby cut back toward the hole, and it worked out perfectly. He brought in his caddie and told him that “I need your best read.” Ernie Els did his part, putting out of turn to turn the stage over to Mickelson.

The pace was perfect. The putt looked perfect – until it wasn’t. By a fraction.

“I saw that ball going in and I just had a good, clear vision of what was going to happen,” he said. “What I didn’t see was what happened.”

“One of the biggest challenges is when you shoot a round like this, you start expectations running through your head and so forth, and that’s the one thing that I’ll have to try to suppress and hold off,” he said. “We’ll have three more rounds. We’ll have varying conditions tomorrow. It’s going to be very difficult.”

Eight Americans were among the top 11 on the leaderboard at Royal Troon, where they have won the Open the last six times. That group included Steve Stricker, the 49-year-old in his first major this year, and Justin Thomas, the 23-year-old in his first British Open.

Defending champion Zach Johnson had a chance to shoot 63 if he birdied the last two holes. He went bogey-bogey for a 67.

But this day was all about Mickelson, who never seriously came close to making bogey. He missed only three greens and two fairways.

Questions about depth behind Miller Training camp

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com After three years of entering training camp with Martellus Bennett, a Pro Bowler and one of the best tight ends in the game, the Bears head to Bourbonnais with Zach Miller leading the group. The similar trend from the Bennett years will follow the Bears to Olivet Nazarene University – there will be a competition for the No. 2 tight end spot.

Three things to watch at the tight end position in training camp: Main man Miller: The 34 catches, 439 yards and five touchdowns helped earn Miller a multiyear contract after a breakout season. Miller, who turns 32 in October, has been a feel-good story in Chicago and is now the No. 1 tight end, a role he’s comfortable playing.

We have to remember Miller was effective playing almost every snap after Bennett went down late last season.

Now we’ll see what role he will play in the offense, as blocking may become a bigger part of his job description.

Training camp and the preseason are where Miller first made his impressions in 2014, so expect to see Jay Cutler connect with Miller often during camp practices. They’ve had a good rapport for years, so camp now is all about see-

This is the fourth of our position-by-position series previewing what to watch in Bears training camp this summer. The team reports July 27 in Bourbonnais. in practices.

Moeaki a factor: We’ll get to the crowded group of players vying to be the No. 2 tight end alongside Miller this season, but we want to focus on Moeaki when it comes to training camp.

The former Wheaton-Warrenville South player was signed after minicamp and will use Bourbonnais as an oppor-

tunity to revive his career. As a rookie in 2010, Moeaki had 556 receiving yards and three scores. He missed 2011 before returning to get 453 yards for the Chiefs in 2012, but since then, Moeaki has only appeared in 19 games with the Bills, Seahawks and Falcons.

He has the most NFL experience of the other Bears tight ends and will be one of the intriguing players to monitor

Finding Miller’s complement: Joining Moeaki in the competition are Rob Housler, Khari Lee, converted defensive lineman Greg Scruggs and undrafted rookie Ben Braunecker. Joe Sommers and Gannon Sinclair round out the tight end room, one that is far from impressive.

Lee has the most experience in the system, playing often last season as a rookie after the Bears traded a draft pick for him. Housler had back-to-back 400-yard seasons with Arizona in 2012-13 but has only 13 catches since.

Scruggs has imposing size but is raw as he switches to the offensive side of the ball.

Braunecker starred at the NFL Scouting Combine with his athleticism, and the Harvard product may turn into a fan favorite if he can step up as a receiving option for Cutler.

BLACKHAWKS ANALYSIS

Time for Hawks to give prospects real chance

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com In June 2011, the Blackhawks used their two first-round draft picks to select forwards Mark McNeill and Phil Danault. McNeill finally made it to the NHL – for one game – almost five years later, in January 2016. Danault played two games in the 2014-15 season before finally entrenching himself in the NHL this past season.

In the meantime, Brandon Saad and Andrew Shaw – picked in the second and fifth rounds of that same 2011 draft – have won two Stanley Cups in Chicago and earned lengthy and lucrative NHL contracts in Columbus and Montreal.

So this whole prospect thing isn’t an exact science.

Not everybody can be a Saad or a Shaw, each of whom reached the NHL mere months after being drafted. For every meteoric rise, there are countless slow burns – guys who spend years on

the cusp of the NHL without ever fully breaking through. Vinnie Hinostroza will wrap up his fifth Hawks prospect camp Friday. Ryan Hartman of West Dundee will finish his fourth. For Nick Schmaltz and Dylan Sikura, it’s their third.

It’s time to find out if they’re NHL ready.

The Hawks have holes to fill up front this season – lots of them. Andrew Ladd, Shaw, Teuvo Teravainen, Dale Weise and Tomas Fleischmann are gone. It’s why Schmaltz decided to turn pro. It’s why Hartman thinks he has a real chance to start the season in the NHL. It’s why Hinostroza has been extra focused this camp. There are jobs to be had. And if the Hawks are wise, they’ll give the kids the first crack at them.

It’s time to find out whether Hartman can be the do-it-all agitator Shaw was. It’s time to find out whether Schmaltz and Tyler Motte can bring their dynamic playmaking to the NHL

level. It’s time to find out whether the 5-foot-9 Hinostroza can withstand the punishment he’s going to take around the net. It’s time to find out who’s going to be the next part of the core.

Because it’s not going to be Jordin Tootoo, a 33-year-old veteran known more for his hard fists than his soft hands. It’s probably not going to be Brandon Mashinter, a soon-to-be 28-year-old journeyman. And it’s not going to be a cheap leftover from the July 1 free-agency frenzy (Kris Versteeg, anyone?).

But it might be Schmaltz or Motte.

It might be Hartman or Hinostroza. It might even be McNeill, who is without a contract but is likely to be re-signed.

But the only way to find out for sure is to play them. Not just a game here or there, not just six minutes a night – but actually play them. It might leave Joel Quenneville tearing out his mustache in frustration some nights, but he and Stan Bowman need to give the Hawks’ best young prospects extended audi-

tions at the NHL level, to let them make mistakes and learn from them.

With their core players still locked up and in their prime, and with Brian Campbell and Michal Kempny bolstering the defense, the Hawks enter the 2016-17 season as true Stanley Cup contenders again. But they won’t do anything with 21/2 lines. And they won’t have the salary-cap space to go on a spending spree at the trade deadline.

Even in the brutal Central Division, a playoff spot seems inevitable for the Hawks. So the smart thing to do is to spend the months leading up to April figuring out who’s the next Teravainen, and who’s the next Jeremy Morin; who’s the next Saad, and who’s the next Brandon Pirri; who’s the next Marcus Kruger, and who’s the next Drew LeBlanc. And the only way to do that is to play them, and see what happens – for better or for worse.

Because although we don’t know yet whether the Hawks’ kids are all right, we do know they’re all they’ve got.
