Keep Pokémon Go off the road “Put the phone down ... Don’t play Pokémon and drive.”

An electronic billboard on eastbound Route 14 at Pingree Road in Crystal Lake flashed that message on my Wednesday morning drive to work.

I smiled and thought about turning around and grabbing a photo of it ... while I was driving.

I thought again and decided against.

The sign’s message was cute – Pokémon Go is a phenomenon. It might be fleeting, I’m not sure, but it’s hooked millions of enthralled players around the world, including my wife and son.

But the message also was thoughtful. There are so many distractions today, it can be hard to focus on the one thing that matters the most when in a car – driving safely.

I’ve become more aware of other drivers these past few weeks as I’ve ridden along McHenry County roads as a passenger, something I’ve rarely done until recently. My 15-yearold son has his driver’s permit and whenever we go anywhere, he wants to drive. Yes, you better become more aware of us, too.

Sitting in the passenger seat while’s he’s driving, I’m 100 percent focused on the roads and other drivers (and desperately clenching the door handle, but I won’t go there). It’s kind of scary what I’ve seen. Countless drivers with phones in hand, looking back and forth from

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Dan McCaleb the road to their phone screen. Drivers ignoring state law, which mandates telephone calls only from handless devices.

I’ll admit, I’m far from perfect.

On a business trip last week, I shuttled three colleagues around Iowa. At one point, my phone started to go crazy, buzzing one text message after another for a couple of minutes.

“Something big must be happening,” I thought, so I had to look. Nope, just my sisters going back and forth about weekend plans.

“Put the phone down, no distractions,” one colleague yelled from the back seat.

It was good advice, and I took it.

There are apps you can download and other devices that help prevent your teen from using their smartphone while driving. I plan to explore that, and maybe not just for my teenage son.

NEW YORK – “Ghostbusters” star Leslie Jones publicly abandoned Twitter, one of several celebrities to do so after becoming the target of sexist and racist abuse on the service.

Jones, who is black, fielded a barrage of Twitter harassment before she gave up, all because, as she put it, “I did a movie.” Twitter users hurled racist slurs, compared the comic actress to the gorilla recently killed at the Cincinnati Zoo and sent Jones obscene pictures.

Twitter banned conservative provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, technology editor of the right-wing site Breitbart News, for “participating in or inciting targeted abuse of individuals,” according to a Twitter notice emailed to Yiannopoulos and published on Breitbart.

Lake in the Hills therapy horses visit Algonquin department

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Three miniature horses visited the Algonquin Police Department on Wednesday to bring some stress relief to officers.

Mane in Heaven, a nonprofit based out of Lake in the Hills, normally takes its seven miniature therapy horses to places including nursing homes, schools, hospitals and libraries, but last week was the first time they stopped by a police department.

After the July 7 shooting that killed five officers in Dallas, Mane in Heaven Director at Large Danielle McCready said the group visited Huntley police to say “thank you.”

“They need the stress relief and something happy and positive, versus all the negativity that’s going on,” McCready said.

After photos were posted on Facebook from the Huntley visit, Algon-

quin police noticed, and said they were interested in having a visit from the horses, too, McCready said.

Police officers, Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District members and community members all gathered outside the department to pet and take pictures with the horses – Lunar, Mystery and Charmer.

Algonquin police Officer Andrea Treml said she noticed the Huntley visit, and when Mane in Heaven reached out to them, Algonquin police decided to open up the event to the community, too.

“It’s a nice thing to do to have people come out here and to see the horses and interact with us,” Treml said.

“And kind of have better community relations with everyone and kind of be more human to people.”

Algonquin Police Chief John Bucci said the job can be very stressful, and even more so after police shootings, such as in Dallas and Baton Rouge.

“We’re getting a lot of calls, a lot of letters, a lot of people stopping us in the street saying ‘thank you.’ And we appreciate it. It means a lot.”

John Bucci, Algonquin police chief Having the horses visit, however, put a smile on everyone’s face, Bucci said. The community support the department has received recently has been overwhelming, he added.

“We’re getting a lot of calls, a lot of letters, a lot of people stopping us in the street saying ‘thank you,’ ” Bucci said. “And we appreciate it.

“It means a lot, it definitely means a lot.”

Algonquin residents Kirsten and David Greenberg said they brought their daughter, 8-year-old Rachel

Greenberg, to see the horses because she’s always been an animal lover.

“I just like it that it’s at the police station,” Kirsten Greenberg said.

“Sometimes kids are afraid [of police], so we always try to teach her you can always go to them or talk to them about anything. So it’s nice that they’re here, too, and she can see them interacting with everybody as well.”

Serving the community is at the core of why police departments exist, Algonquin Detective Sgt. Doug Lamz said. And events such as the Mane in Heaven visit give police and the public a chance to stand side by side with each other in a friendly setting, he said.

“We don’t have to scream and yell.

It doesn’t have to be confrontational or adversarial. And when you get down to it, we’re all sitting at the same table,” Lamz said. “… It’s in all of our best interests to figure out how to get along with each other, and here’s a good way to do it.”

Caretaker testifies about finding remains sealed in McHenry home William Ross on trial for murder, concealing homicide in ex’s death

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A woman who found the remains of 49-year-old Jacqueline Schaefer testified Wednesday that she went into William J. Ross’ abandoned home at least seven times before entering a sealed bedroom Nov. 6, 2013.

Renee Bitton, a longtime friend of Ross who still takes care of the McHenry property, said on the witness stand that he asked her in June 2012 to watch over his property at 518 Country Club Drive because he was going on a road trip.

While taking care of the property, Bitton testified to entering the home with friends on several occasions between January 2013 and November 2013, once after pipes burst and several instances after to clean the residence.

She said she did this over Ross’ objections and his warning to never enter the home.

Bitton, who knew Schaefer lived there with Ross, also asked him where she had gone and he told her she had moved back to Missouri.

It wasn’t until Nov. 6, 2013, that she would know otherwise.

Bitton testified Wednesday that she found Schaefer’s remains in the home more than a year and a half after Ross left.

That day, she and her then-boyfriend, Jerome Mikos, went to the residence to retrieve a space heater from the sealed bedroom. Bitton testified that she removed the caulking, duct tape, screws and trimming from the door and Mikos used a flat

bar to pry open the door.

Bitton said she walked over two black trash bags to retrieve the space heater, but then picked one up and looked inside to see a white rib cage.

William J. She said once she realRoss ized what she saw, she ran out of the residence and alerted Mikos and the two called police.

Mikos testified that he also had looked inside the trash bag to confirm Bitton’s initial observations.

“I knew there was a lady in there,” he said tearfully.

Ross stands trial this week on allegations that he murdered his ex-girlfriend and tenant and then sealed her body in a bedroom inside his residence. Prosecutors have argued that Ross shot Schaefer in the head and back sometime in 2011, sealed the bedroom and then abandoned the residence months later.

Ross, 64, was arrested while living in Las Vegas in 2013 and charged with concealing a homicide. He was charged with her murder in 2014 and remains in custody in lieu of $5 million bond. He has denied all charges.

Forensic pathologist Larry Blum said he found to a “reasonable degree of scientific medical certainty” that Schaefer died from two bullet wounds, one in her skull and another in her spine.

Defense attorney Stephen Richards asked Blum if Schaefer could have died from an alcohol or drug overdose, and if the bullet wounds could have been sus-

tained after she died. Blum said there was no blood to test for the presence of alcohol or drugs, although hair and bones can be tested and that was not done.

Prosecutors have argued that Ross sealed the bedroom with items such as caulk, nails, screws, duct tape and paint – all items that were purchased by Ross in June 2012, according to testimony by a local hardware manager.

Richards asked the woman if Ross had made prior home improvement purchases in the past and she responded he had.

Officers also testified Wednesday to two incidents of domestic battery in 2007 that occurred at Ross’ home. Schaefer suffered physical injuries during both incidents, including a bloody lip, broken wrist and swollen foot and ankle. Ross was subsequently arrested after the two incidents and charged with domestic battery.

Ralph Robert Jones Jr., a neighbor who lived across the street from Ross for at least two decades, described Ross as a “homeless person” and someone who was unshaven and had unwashed hair. He said he knew Schaefer lived at the residence with Ross and described her as a petite woman with long blonde hair.

He also said he saw Ross carry beer into his home a few times a week, but the two never had a conversation.

“His property was as [unkempt] as he was,” Jones said.

Jones said he was unable to pinpoint the last time he saw either Ross or Schaefer.

Prosecutors expect to rest their case Thursday.

Child, 4, hospitalized after entering hot car NORTHWEST HERALD

McHENRY – A 4-year-old McHenry-area girl has been hospitalized after she crawled into a hot car and stayed there several minutes before being discovered.

Protection District personnel tending to a 4-year-old girl.

Preliminary investigation indicates the girl overheard conversations about going to her grandma’s house for dinner. She then reportedly went outside

and climbed into the car without anyone knowing at the time.

The family began looking for the girl about 15 to 20 minutes later and found her unresponsive in the car. The mother immediately removed her from the car and called 911.

The girl was taken to Centegra Hospital – McHenry and was later transferred to Lutheran General Hospital for further treatment.

The incident remains under investigation.

Crystal Lake to ask voters if they want new library in referendum

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The city’s voters will be asked in November whether the city should borrow $30.1 million to build a new library.

The Crystal Lake City Council voted Tuesday, 7-0, to place an advisory referendum on the Nov. 8 ballot at the behest of the Crystal Lake Public Library Board, which has long argued that the 126 W. Paddock St. library is aging, cramped and inadequate for modern needs. Although the ballot question is nonbinding, the voters’ answer will give direction to the City Council, which has the power to borrow the money without a binding referendum.

Supporters of the library’s plan filled the City Council chambers, but the entire affair lasted only about 10 minutes – Mayor Aaron Shepley told the audience that the issue before them was not the merit of the idea, but merely whether to put the question on the ballot.

Library board members want to build a 75,000-square-foot library at the site, which would about double the size of the existing 40,000-square-foot facility. The wording of the referendum states that building and equipping the new library would increase property taxes an average of $132 a year for the owner of a home assessed at $200,000.

Library Director Kathryn Martens said that the need for a new library is real, and that three assessments conducted over the past two decades back up that need.

“We are now at a critical juncture, looking at $9.1 million to only repair the existing out-of-date building and still not resolve our inefficient electric heating system, poor building access or inability to provide 21st-century service. This is the cost of doing nothing,” Martens said.

Voters in 2004 rejected an advisory referendum, but the library board approached the City Council with the results of a community-engagement focus group that concluded that building a new library is the best option. The

group, named Future of Crystal Lake Library Under Study, met monthly from March through June.

Shepley said before the City Council vote that the library board did its homework before approaching the council with the request. The library board is appointed by the City Council and cannot issue debt under state law.

“The library has spent a good number of years getting to this point,” Shepley said. “They have done more due diligence than just about any group that I’ve seen.”

The results of the advisory referendum have no legal effect on the City Council’s decision-making process – it could choose not to borrow the money, even if voters support the plan.

But even if a majority of voters signal support for a new library, the issue could be a touchy one for City Council members if they decide to move forward. Discontent with McHenry County’s property tax burden has increased in recent years, and three of the City Council’s six members will be up for re-election in April.

County to be under heat advisory Thursday, Friday NORTHWEST HERALD An excessive heat warning will be in effect for McHenry and surrounding counties beginning at noon Thursday, according to the National Weather Service.

The watch will be in effect until about 7 p.m. Friday.

Temperatures are expected to be in

the mid-90s Thursday and mid- to upper 90s Friday, according to the watch, with heat index values up to 115 degrees.

High temperatures could lead to heat-related illnesses with prolonged exposure, and can especially affect the elderly, children and pets, according to the watch.

People are advised to plan ahead,

Magoo, a 20-pound pet tortoise of Stefan Levy of McHenry, was one of three to go missing Sunday. Two, including Magoo, have since been found. tortoise made its way to McHenry Harley-Davidson, about a quarter mile from Levy’s home. Garrett Urban, who works at Harley-Davidson, said he discovered the tortoise in a prairie near the dealership.

WOODSTOCK – McHenry County residents are invited to a National Day of Action: Show Up Against Police Violence, which will be from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Thursday in Woodstock, according to a news release.

The silent vigil at the southeast corner of Route 47 and Country Club Road is in response to fatal attacks on black men and women by police around the country, including the recent shootings of Alton Sterling in Louisiana and Philando Castle in suburban Minneapolis.

Organizers stress that this is not an anti-police demonstration.

“It is an opportunity for white McHenry County residents to show up in support of responsible policing and an end to racial profiling and police brutality,” according to the release.

to me and said they found a tortoise, and I said, ‘We don’t have any tortoises around here,’ ” Urban said.

Urban said he originally didn’t believe there was a tortoise near the property, but to his amazement, he found the tortoise roaming around the prairie.

When Levy heard that staff at Harley-Davidson found the tortoise, he went over there, but the dealership already sent it over to Straz’s farm, thinking it was hers.

Levy then headed over to the farm, found his tortoise and talked to Straz about the weird coincidence of all three tortoises disappearing on the same day.

Although two of the three tortoises have returned to their owners, Levy and Straz hope the last tortoise also finds its way safely home. However, Straz said she is suspicious that someone might be keeping the tortoise to try and sell it.

“These tortoises are a creature of habit, they always come back to sleep in the same spot at night,” Straz said.

“So I’m thinking someone may have him, because years ago the tortoise escaped and found its way back to the farm.”

If anyone knows the whereabouts of the missing tortoise, Straz asked that she be contacted at 847-845-2186.

LOCAL BRIEF

Dundee Rt. 31 Rt. 25

McHENRY – Three large tortoises – with a combined weight of about 170 pounds, and all with McHenry owners – coincidentally went missing last weekend.

Only two have since been found.

Two of McHenry resident Joanne Straz’s tortoises escaped from her farm, but only the 100-pound female tortoise has turned up after someone dropped it off at a pet store, McHenry Pet Central.

The male tortoise, named Turtle, still is missing.

Coincidentally, McHenry resident Stefan Levy also noticed his pet tortoise, Magoo, escaped from his backyard that same day. Levy said he first drove around the neighborhood looking for his missing pet. He then called up McHenry Pet Central, which said his missing tortoise was there. In an interesting twist, when Levy arrived at the pet store, he discovered that tortoise wasn’t his.

“Lo and behold when I get there, it’s not my tortoise,” Levy said. “It was a 100-pound tortoise and mine’s only 20 pounds. So I was all excited, then all depressed.”

The mystery of Levy’s missing tortoise didn’t last much longer. His pet

dents and staff with rashes have had at least four courses, Annarella said.

Annarella also stressed that the outbreak was not caused or made worse by staffing issues at the 128-bed home west of Woodstock. More than 70 employees have filed a grievance alleging that staff levels are insufficient and that overwork is contributing to increased use of sick time and resignations. Democratic state Rep. Jack Franks, who is running for County Board chairman against Republican candidate and County Board member Michael Walkup, has called attention to what he alleges is inadequate management and response.

“The staffing levels that are being discussed did not in any way contribute to scabies coming into the building, and they have not hindered our ability to address the cases once they were identified,” Annarella said.

Walkup and member Donna Kurtz, R-Crystal Lake, praised Annarella and his management abilities after his remarks. But Cary resident Christy Wagner, whose mother-in-law lives in Valley Hi, said there was “a failure to connect obvious dots.”

While Wagner also lauded her relative’s four-year stay at the home, she said she and other family members brought her mother-in-law’s rash, and those of other distressed residents, to

“The staffing levels ... did not in any way contribute to scabies coming into the building, and they have not hindered our ability to address the cases ...”

Tom Annarella

Valley Hi Nursing Home administrator staff’s attention weeks before the July 1 scabies confirmation. She also alleged that several members of the Valley Hi Operating Board that oversees the home first learned of the outbreak after reading about it in the newspaper or being turned away during visits.

“I feel, and our family feels, that the magnitude of this outbreak did not need to reach this point of escalation,” Wagner said.

Annarella, who has served as administrator since 2010, has been credited by County Board and staff with straightening out Valley Hi’s finances and operations. He was hired after a 2½-year period in which board members turned control of the facility over to a private company to enact needed reforms and staunch Valley Hi’s large annual operating deficits.

• Thursday, July 21, 2016

WOODSTOCK – The administrator of Valley Hi Nursing Home assured McHenry County Board members that a recent outbreak of Norwegian scabies is under control and unrelated to staff shortages.

Administrator Tom Annarella told board members at the start of the Tuesday evening meeting that fewer than 10 cases of the highly contagious disease have been confirmed, and that the county-run nursing home was reopened to the public and new residents Saturday.

Annarella made about five minutes of remarks to clear up what he called public and private misconceptions about the outbreak of scabies, which he said is not an uncommon occurrence in nursing homes. The outbreak has become a campaign issue in the race for County Board chairman, and comes in the midst of a labor grievance filed by employees regarding their workload.

“Our incident has seemed to derive a lot more press than what would normally be expected,” Annarella said.

But his remarks were followed by public comment from a resident’s family member who said the outbreak could have been handled better and earlier.

Valley Hi confirmed the first case

July 1, the day after notifying the McHenry County Department of Health that it had potential cases on its hands.

As part of Valley Hi’s action plan to deal with the disease, Annarella ordered the facility closed to new residents and to visitors of symptomatic patients, he told board members.

Norwegian, or crusted, scabies is a severe form of the disease caused by an infestation of the skin by the human itch mite, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

People with Norwegian scabies have thick crusts of skin that contain large numbers of mites and their eggs. The disease is spread by both direct skinto-skin contact and contamination of clothing, bedding and furniture.

Nursing homes, extended-care facilities, prisons and other crowded places where close skin contact is frequent are common sites of scabies outbreaks, according to the CDC. Norwegian scabies is most common with the elderly, the disabled and people with compromised immune systems.

Since the first confirmed cases, all residents and staff have received two courses of treatment, which according to the health department involves oral medication and a cream applied from the neck down. People with confirmed cases, their roommates and other resi-

Administrator: Valley Hi scabies outbreak under control

Democrats choose replacement state’s attorney candidate Woodstock DUI lawyer Ray Flavin will run against Patrick Kenneally

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com The Democratic Party of McHenry County nominated a Woodstock DUI lawyer to run for state’s attorney a day after their first pick withdrew from the race.

Ray Flavin, who ran as a Republican for the office in 2004, was selected at Wednesday evening’s regular Democratic Party meeting to run for job of the county’s top Ray Flavin prosecutor. He replaces labor attorney James Harrison, who dropped out Tuesday because he now is caretaker for his ailing mother.

Flavin will run against Republican Patrick Kenneally, an assistant state’s attorney who won the March GOP primary.

“I just think this is an excellent opportunity to effect some change in the state’s attorney’s office,” Flavin said.

Party Chairman Michael Bissett said Flavin feels it’s important for voters to have a choice on the Nov. 8 ballot, and shares the party’s “concerns” about Kenneally, referring to a 2010 domestic disturbance call at Kenneally’s home that was brought up during the primary by Kenneally’s GOP challenger. No charges were filed from the incident.

“[Flavin’s] going to be very aggressive in his campaign. He already has a campaign office and is assembling a staff. He’s going to run a really good campaign,” Bissett said.

Kenneally in a statement welcomed Flavin to the race, but called him even less qualified for the job than Harrison.

He also said that county residents “deserve better than a last-minute scramble on the part of Democratic insiders to get a name on the ballot.”

“He has never prosecuted so much as a single criminal case. He ran unsuccessfully for elected office on two prior occasions as both a Democrat and a Republican. This raises troubling questions of political opportunism and credibility,” Kenneally said.

The Democratic Party did not run a state’s attorney candidate in the March primary – it slated Harrison the following month to fill the vacant slot.

Flavin ran in 2002 for the Illinois Senate as a Democrat against Republican incumbent Dick Klemm. Flavin served six years as a Navy corpsman before attending law school.

Republican State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi, who is supporting Kenneally’s bid to succeed him, decided against seeking a fourth term in office. Bianchi defeated Flavin and another challenger in the 2004 GOP primary to win his first term.

STATE

More children are victims of city’s gunfire

By DON BABWIN

The Associated Press CHICAGO – The Chicago mother thought she knew when it was safe to take her children outside, that she could protect them by sizing up and avoiding the people whom trouble seemed to follow.

Then a bullet fired from a gun that D’Antignay Brashear never saw pierced the cheek of her 4-year-old son, Kavan Collins. It fractured the boy’s jaw and shattered some teeth before it went out his other cheek, all while he held his mother’s hand.

“He was with his mother, and it wasn’t like I was doing something wrong, having him out after hours,” said Brashear, a 21-year-old single mother of two, referring to the shooting that happened before sundown June 28 on Chicago’s South Side. “I thought he was safe.”

Kavan is part of a growing roster of children who have been shot in the city this year amid a spike in killings and shootings. More than 330 killings have occurred in the city.

So far, no child has died from the gunfire that’s often connected to gangs.

Children have been struck while doing normal kid things such as playing with

News from across the state Judge blocks redistricting plan from November ballot

CHICAGO – A referendum allowing Illinois voters to decide if an independent commission should draw the state’s political boundaries was struck down by a judge Wednesday who ruled it was unconstitutional for November’s ballot.

The 37-page written decision by Cook County Judge Diane Larsen was the second setback to advocates of redistricting reform since 2014 when a judge tossed a similar proposal. Both times an attorney linked to top Democratic leaders, including House Speaker Michael Madigan, filed lawsuits claiming the plans weren’t constitutional.

The latest measure – called the Independent Map Amendment – proposed an 11-member commission take over

D’Antignay Brashear shows a photo Monday of her 4-year-old son, Kavan Collins, after he was shot June 28 in Chicago. Collins was shot while holding Brashear’s hand on the city’s South Side. One of the bullets had struck him in his face, fracturing his jaw. sparklers, drawing on the sidewalk or holding a mother’s hand.

Statistics that The Associated Press requested from the police department show children ages 10 to 17, who make up more than 260 of the victims so far

this year, are at greater risk than those younger than 10. But police records through the end of June showed 15 children younger than 10 had been shot, which is seven more young shooting victims than the same span last year.

drawing legislative boundaries, instead of leaving the process to party leaders.

Commission members would be chosen through a complex system involving the auditor general and potentially Illinois Supreme Court members. Backers, including business and bipartisan political leaders, said they learned from the failed attempt.

The group, which claims the once-a-decade redistricting method is too political, vowed Wednesday to file an expedited appeal to the Illinois Supreme Court.

Abbott Laboratories tops 2nd quarter forecasts

ABBOTT PARK – Abbott Laboratories on Wednesday reported second-quarter profit of $615 million.

The Abbott Park-based company said it had profit of 41 cents per share. Earnings, adjusted for one-time gains and costs, came to 55 cents per share.

The results exceeded Wall Street expectations. The average estimate of 12 analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research was for earnings of 53 cents

Rauner approves expansion of breast cancer screenings

PARK RIDGE – Insurance plans and Medicaid providers in Illinois will be required to cover a new technology for breast cancer screenings under a new law approved by Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner.

The 3-D mammograms that insurance plans will cover work by taking X-rays from different angles to make it easier for doctors to detect cancer.

Rauner called it a “cutting-edge screening tool” and said it puts the state at the forefront of fighting breast cancer.

The governor signed the measure Wednesday at Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge.

The Illinois Department of Public Health said breast cancer is the most

Four more young children have been shot since the start of July, including a 6-year-old girl who was sitting on a porch Tuesday with her mother and grandmother when a bullet – one of more than 40 fired a block away – struck her in the stomach.

Police are trying to determine if the gunfire that struck Tacarra Morgan in the West Englewood neighborhood on the South Side was an exchange between people inside a caravan of cars and a group of men on the street. They said another possibility is that someone in one of the vehicles sprayed the area with a high-capacity assault weapon.

Tacarra’s condition was upgraded from critical to serious, a hospital official said Wednesday. The shootings, mostly in neighborhoods on the South and West sides, underline what the residents already knew: It’s a dangerous time for the city’s children as well.

But since the recent shootings of young victims haven’t been deadly, they have received little attention outside Chicago. The children haven’t become national symbols of the city’s violence such as 9-year-old Tyshawn Lee, who was lured into an alley in November with the promise of a juice box and shot to death, allegedly by gang members out to punish his father.

2 men to be released after murder charges dropped

CHICAGO – Prosecutors in Chicago on Wednesday dropped charges against two men imprisoned more than 20 years for a 1993 murder after allegations of misconduct by police investigators.

Jose Montanez and Armando Serrano were expected to be released almost immediately from Illinois prisons after Cook County prosecutors announced their decision not to retry the men.

Prosecutors’ decision came after an appeals court ruling last month found “profoundly alarming acts of misconduct” led to the men’s convictions in the death of Rodrigo Vargas.

“The principal witness from the trial has since submitted an affidavit that the trial testimony he gave was ‘false in all respects’ and it was coerced by the detectives investigating the murder,” the court stated in its ruling.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Writer takes blame for Melania Trump’s speech

CLEVELAND – With Donald Trump’s campaign reeling from charges of plagiarism, a speechwriter for his company took the blame and offered to resign over nearly identical passages from Melania Trump’s Republican convention speech and Michelle Obama’s remarks eight years ago.

The speechwriter, however, made it clear that Melania Trump knew that the passages she read to an enthralled convention Monday night had come from Michelle Obama.

“A person she has always liked is Michelle Obama,” the speechwriter, Meredith McIver, said of Mrs. Trump in a statement Wednesday from the campaign.

“Over the phone, she read me some passages from Mrs. Obama’s speech as examples.

I wrote them down and later included some of the phrasing in the draft that ultimately became the final speech.”

But with the shooting deaths of three law enforcement officers Sunday, the 63-year-old Democrat has become more visible, standing up for his police force and accepting condolences from mayors across the country, including the leaders of Orlando and Dallas, and from President Barack Obama.

In an interview with The Associated Press, Holden vowed Wednesday to unify Baton Rouge after two weeks of violence and anguish. The day the officers were killed “was one of the worst days in the history of Baton Rouge” and in his 12 years as mayor, Holden said.

Cruz refuses to endorse Trump, hears loud boos The ASSOCIATED PRESS CLEVELAND – Undercutting calls for Republican unity, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz stubbornly refused to endorse Donald Trump Wednesday night as he addressed the GOP convention, igniting thunderous boos from furious delegates as he encouraged Americans to simply “vote your conscience” in November.

In a surreal moment, Trump unexpectedly walked into the arena just as Cruz was wrapping up his remarks. Delegates chanted Trump’s name and implored Cruz to voice his support for the businessman, to no avail.

“Vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the Constitution,” Cruz said. While he backed some of Trump’s policy proposals, including building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, he mentioned the GOP nominee by name only once.

Cruz’s defiance ripped open party divisions anew, on the summer’s biggest political stage. Trump allies were infuriated, including New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who said Cruz’s decision was “totally selfish.”

The remarkable moment upended what was shaping up to be the convention’s most successful night, and overshadowed Indiana Gov. Mike Pence’s national convention debut as Trump’s running mate.

“You have nominated a man for president who never quits,” Pence said. “Until now, he’s had to do it all by himself against all odds, but this week, with this united party, he’s got backup.”

Trump joined Pence on stage, applauding his new political partner and humorously leaning in to nearly give him a kiss on the cheek.

The campaign had hoped

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Tex., walks on the stage Wednesday during the third day of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland.

Pence’s address would quiet Republican doubts about Trump. Unlike the celebrity businessman, Pence is an experienced politician, favorite of conservatives and ally of party leaders.

But Cruz’s appearance left the arena unsettled for the night’s closing speakers.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich tried to quiet the anger as he took the stage, going off script to try to explain away the senator’s lack of support for the nominee.

“Ted Cruz said you can vote your conscience for anyone who will uphold the Constitution,” he said. “In this election there is only one candidate who will uphold the Constitution.”

Cruz told Trump in a phone conversation two days ago that he would not endorse him during his speech, according to Cruz aide Jason Johnson.

Still, Trump’s campaign invited Cruz to speak – in a headliner role, no less.

That decision was sure to spark a new round of second guessing about the campaign’s management of the convention and preparedness for a bruising general elec-

tion against Democrat Hillary Clinton.

In a late night tweet, Trump said he had seen Cruz’s speech two hours before he took the stage but let him speak anyway. “No big deal!” Trump wrote Clinton’s campaign, seeking to take advantage of the GOP divisions, echoed Cruz on Twitter, writing, “Vote your conscience” and linking to her website.

Trump did get a boost from Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, one of the 16 Republicans whose White House dreams were vanquished during the primary. Still, Walker suggested he was driven as much by a desire to keep Clinton out of the White House as admiration for his party’s nominee.

“Let me be clear: a vote for anyone other than Donald Trump in November is a vote for Hillary Clinton,” Walker said.

After two nights of mostly low-energy speeches, the crowd packed into the arena was noticeably more energetic Wednesday night, dancing in the aisles and waving signs reading, “America Deserves Better Than Hillary.”

Trump-less GOP politicking strong in Ohio

By JULIE BYKOWICZ

vention delegates bustled around downtown, Ron Ferguson and other AFP activists sprinted through suburban Cleveland, adding to the more than 60,000 doors they’ve knocked on so far.

Ferguson passed an anti-Strickland door-hanger to Independence resident Greg Stayanchi, who stood barefoot and behind a screen door.

Stayanchi seemed to have memorized the group’s talking points and bemoaned past tax increases, state spending and depleted rainy day funds. “Oh, we’ve had plenty of Strickland in this state,” he said. “I won’t be voting for him.”

But when a reporter asked about the Republican National Convention that was in full swing a few miles north, Stayanchi heaved a sigh and fell silent.

“I’m not a huge Trump fan,” he finally offered. “Hillary’s too crooked for me.

It’s the lesser of two evils.”

That attitude is shared by Charles Koch, a billionaire Kansas industrialist who helps fund Americans for Prosperity and numerous other groups. The entire Koch network is withholding its resources from Trump, another change from 2012 when they tried to oust President Barack Obama with big ad campaigns blasting his health care policies.

The Associated Press

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio – Nine miles from the red-white-and-blue-festooned arena where thousands of Republicans are extolling their new presidential nominee, other Republicans are uttering not a word about Donald Trump as they knock on doors and talk to voters.

Americans for Prosperity activists have been helping Sen. Rob Portman for more than a year, telling Ohioans that his Democratic rival, former Gov. Ted Strickland, has a terrible record on the economy. AFP and its allies are using a sophisticated database to find and persuade voters and have already spent more than $8 million on ads against Strickland.

The politicking in Ohio this week vividly shows the multiple personalities of today’s Republican Party. Not all of it is occurring inside the Quicken Loans Arena where Trump will close out the convention Thursday night with his acceptance speech.

And while there’s celebration over Trump, there’s also plenty of Trumpless party building as the GOP and its allies fight to hold onto their Senate majority.

Portman, one of the more vulnerable incumbents, and Ohio Gov. John Kasich were among those who took an everywhere-but-Trumpfest approach.

Political and policy groups, including ones tied to GOP strategist Karl Rove, are holding events for donors in town

for the convention, while minimizing their own presence at the convention itself. That’s a major change from four years ago when Mitt Romney accepted the nomination in Tampa while groups there clamored for his attention.

attempt to retake the key northern city of Mosul. The meeting of defense leaders lasted about two hours.

This is the fourth time that Carter has convened an anti-Islamic State coalition meeting.

Secretary of State John Kerry was hosting a separate conference at the State Department on Wednesday to try to raise at least $2 billion from donor nations to help Iraq as it takes territory from the Islamic State group. The money will go to humanitarian aid for displaced people, demining, immediate help to recently liberated communities and the people returning to them as well as medium-to long-term reconstruction and development assistance.

The State Department said donors had pledged in excess of $2.1 billion, with the U.S. offering $310 million in new funds.

“If we do not succeed in Iraq, none of our countries will be safer,” Kerry said. “And likewise, Iraq is connected to Syria, and Daesh/ISIL is plotting against all of us and has already proven its capacity to attack one way or the other. So we are fighting back in every way that we can, and our assistance to Prime Minister Abadi’s government and to our Iraqi friends is a significant

part of the overall campaign to defeat Daesh.”

On Thursday, Kerry will host a joint meeting of defense and foreign ministers in the counter-IS coalition. They are expected to talk about the coordination of political and military efforts, including counter-terrorist financing, combating the flow of foreign fighters, and the stabilization of cities and towns that have been freed from Islamic State control.

“We are succeeding on the ground in Iraq and Syria but we have a lot of work to do,” said Brett McGurk, the president’s special representative to the counter-IS coalition. “This is an enormous challenge that will be with us for years to come.”

The gathering comes on the heels of the NATO summit in Warsaw earlier this month, when allies agreed to boost support for the anti-Islamic State mission, including the launch of a training and capacity-building mission for Iraqi armed forces in Iraq.

The U.S. has announced that it will send 560 additional troops to Iraq to transform a newly retaken air base into a staging hub for the long-awaited battle to recapture Mosul from Islamic State militants.

JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. – Defense leaders at a counter-Islamic State meeting expressed concerns about what happens after the expected defeat of the militant group, and whether countries are ready to help stabilize and rebuild the war-torn cities, particularly in Iraq, Defense Secretary Ash Carter said Wednesday.

Carter also said that some nations have agreed to step up their contributions to the fight, as battles for the key cities of Mosul in Iraq and Raqqa in Syria loom.

Defense and foreign leaders from more than 30 countries are in Washington for two days of meetings on the next steps to be taken in the fight to defeat the Islamic State group, which still maintains control of large sections of Iraq and Syria.

Speaking to reporters after the first day’s session wrapped up at Joint Base Andrews, Carter said a lot of the conversations were about identifying the needs for reconstruction after the battles are over.

“The biggest strategic concern of this group of defense ministers was

that the stabilization and governance effort will lag behind the military campaign,” Carter said. “Making sure there’s no such lag must be a significant strategic priority for us. We discussed it today and it will be an important focus of our conversation tomorrow at the State Department with our foreign ministry counterparts.”

British Defense Sec- Ash Carter retary Michael Fallon said more must be done to ensure that residents will be able and willing to return to the Iraqi cities.

The coalition, Fallon said, must be sure it is “able to support the government of Iraq in the work that will be required the day after Mosul is eventually liberated.”

That includes efforts to get basic services turned back on and removing the threat of hidden bombs. He said “everything is booby-trapped,” including the rubble, and the people won’t have the confidence to return unless the explosives are cleared away.

The gathering comes as Iraqi security forces, aided by the coalition, are preparing to encircle and eventually

OUR VIEW

Back to work, Ill. legislators Illinois’ terrible financial crisis shows no signs of abating. If anything, the state’s financial outlook has gotten worse.

In the wake of the June 30 stopgap budget (with a full year’s worth of spending for K-12 schools and a half-year budget for everything else), two reports last week spelled out the carnage.

1) The stopgap budget calls for an annual For the record deficit of nearly $8 billion – a new record Lawmakers who believe they for fiscal irresponsihave earned a break from legisbility in Illinois. lating – so they can campaign The lawmaker who for re-election – should be asked the Commisjolted into the reality of Illinois’ sion on Government financial crisis.

Forecasting and Accountability to review the budget deal, state Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, said the worsening deficit is a ticking time bomb.

“We’re setting up a major disaster,” McSweeney said. A major tax increase soon will become “a self-fulfilling prophecy,” he said.

2) Comptroller Leslie Munger announced the state’s backlog of overdue bills could reach $10 billion by December. Who is going to want to do business with a state (and in a state) that’s in such poor financial health?

Lawmakers who believe they have earned a break from legislating – so they can campaign for re-election – should be jolted into the reality of Illinois’ financial crisis. Why wait until after the Nov. 8 election to continue budget discussions – which is what the politicians want?

Instead, Gov. Bruce Rauner should get those lawmakers back to work pronto on negotiating a fullyear budget. Rauner should call a special session of the Illinois General Assembly for the first of August.

If lawmakers fail to approve a full-year balanced budget, Rauner should call another special session for the first of September. If that fails, he should call another special session for the first of October. And if that fails, he should call another special session for the first of November. That’s right. One week before the election. Lawmakers never want to make tough choices before the election. They’re afraid it could hurt their chances with voters.

We say, Illinois is in an unprecedented crisis.

Tough choices need to be made now, not later. Business as usual won’t rescue the state. Taking precious months off for politics as usual won’t save it, either.

Voters need to know what their representatives and senators, individually and collectively, will do to set things right – before the election, not afterward.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Trump completes hostile takeover When Mitt Romney ran for the Republican presidential nomination four years ago, he carried a three-legged stool to signify the unity of the three traditional elements of the party: “economic conservatives, social conservatives and defense conservatives.”

The GOP, he argued, must rest on a balance of these three, which made for a more or less comfortable peace behind his candidacy.

Four years later, a disunified party has tossed away the stool.

After a brief moment of near-chaos stoked by the squelching of an anti-Trump minority on the Republican National Convention floor Monday, the party formally adopted a platform that reflects the party’s accelerating ideological confusion – and its lurching away from the center of American politics.

The party embraced a startlingly backward-looking social agenda, much of it a reaction to the Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme

Court ruling that legalized samesex marriage.

The party favors a constitutional amendment that would overturn the ruling, enabling states to ban same-sex unions once again. It proclaims children should be raised by “a mother and father,” expressing disapproval of gays and lesbians as parents. It signals approval for the discredited practice of gay conversion therapy. It calls for the Bible to be taught in public schools. It supports allowing churches to organize politically while keeping their tax-exempt status.

The party’s allegiance to tax cutting and deregulation remains.

Among other things, the GOP would curtail a variety of environmental protections and prevent a variety of species from being listed as endangered. It would abolish the Internal Revenue Service, a particularly silly bumper-sticker proposal.

But Donald Trump’s takeover

has moved the GOP toward isolationism, anti-trade populism and a concomitant ambivalence on essential economic freedoms. The platform takes no firm stand on the North American Free Trade Agreement or the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a shocking turn for a party whose leadership prioritized fast-tracking the TPP after its 2014 midterm election victory.

Filling out the picture, the platform adopts Trump’s call to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, which would be an expensive (if ineffective) symbol of America shutting out the outside world.

The net result is a platform that is more reactionary than visionary, with an emphasis on social matters that is out of step with American public opinion and an isolationist turn that reeks of counterproductive nativism.

Party platforms, it often is said, are irrelevant. In this case, the nation can only hope so.

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

The Washington Post

VIEWS Scott Reeder They didn’t.

So we spent a year watching Rauner and House Speaker Mike Madigan trading political punches while millions of Illinoisans suffered.

Social service agencies shut down. Firms doing business with the state waited months to get paid.

College kids went without financial aid. State universities fired workers when no money from Springfield flowed their way.

But somehow Rauner managed to keep the ship of state afloat.

Faced with the prospects of entering another fiscal year without a budget, Rauner collapsed like a wet cardboard box.

Like Madigan the year before, he advocated for a budget that was nowhere near balanced.

In fact, the “stopgap” budget is $8 billion out of whack.

Don’t just take my word for it.

That’s coming from the bi-partisan Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability, which issued a report last week.

So let me get this straight: We went through a year showdown over Mike Madigan’s budget that was unbalanced to the tune of $4 billion and we end the year with Rauner begging Madigan to support a stopgap budget that is $8 billion out of balance?

Oh, and in exchange for his support, Madigan got more funding for the horribly mismanaged Chicago Public Schools, which Rauner had said wouldn’t receive another dime until they instituted reforms.

Madigan is making Rauner look like a chump.

Maybe Rauner shouldn’t feel too bad. After all, Madigan has made a career of doing that to governors.

The stopgap budget seems to set the stage for a massive tax hike –

after the election.

But Rauner has said he won’t support a tax increase without economic and political reforms.

Right now, what about just some spending reforms?

Costs in areas such as pensions, Medicaid and employee health care are out of control.

If Rauner isn’t able to get spending cuts in these areas as well as some broader political reforms, such as legislative redistricting reform, he is done politically.

It’s as simple as that.

Madigan knows it. And surely Rauner does as well.

What Illinois really needs is someone who will stand firm and have their actions match their words.

Gov. Rauner, are you listening?

IT’S YOUR WRITE We need more leaders like McSweeney, Franks

To the Editor: I am very proud of our local state Reps. David McSweeney and Jack Franks for having the courage to buck their party leadership by voting no on the sham six-month “budget” passed by the General Assembly.

The budget guarantees a bailout for Chicago schools and a property tax increase. These men honorably represented our interests with attempts to protect the taxpayers from massive tax increases.

Franks in particular was vocal in his condemnation of the spending plan that will add billions to our budget deficit.

Franks was highlighted on TV, radio and national newspapers with his well-reasoned arguments. He hammered away at both Democrats and Republicans for not being honest with the voters. Franks explained this deal was simply to allow incumbents to campaign for re-election while selling out the taxpayers. Franks correctly exposed the secret deal that will raise income and property taxes after the

November election.

Franks and McSweeney were the only legislators with the guts to do the right thing for the taxpayers of McHenry County. They both know the taxpayers cannot continue to pay more taxes. Our state and county need more leaders like these gentlemen.

They make us proud.

End prevailing wage law

To the Editor: Illinois, the government state, has a prevailing wage law that is harmful to the middle class and drives up tax burdens to support its 7,000 units of government.

The prevailing wage law is an outdated law established in 1941 that requires all contractors and subcontractors who work for any public body to be paid the hourly rate set each year by the Illinois Department of Labor.

Taxpayers would have a better understanding of the tax harm caused from prevailing wage if it were called “union wage.” Everyone knows union wages cost more. Prevailing wages are

estimated to increase labor costs 25 to 35 percent on all public construction and projects.

Prevailing wage inhibits competition from the private sector non-union work force.

Board members of Illinois’ 7,000 local governments are required each year to vote, yes or no, on the prevailing wages ordinance. If no votes are recorded in the majority at meetings, units of government still are required to follow prevailing wage laws or face legal costs and fines.

Illinois’ prevailing wage law flies in the face of democracy when board

members from 7,000 governments are forced to pay union wages that cost taxpayers more.

Local representation has little control on the cost of labor when it is forced to pay union wages.

The Illinois General Assembly has an important mission to act upon, to repeal existing prevailing wage law and let local boards decide on the cost of labor, not the state. This would be a cost savings for overtaxed home owners.

SPRINGFIELD – I like Gov. Bruce Rauner’s rhetoric better than his most recent actions.

But this so-called stopgap budget he pushed is a loser.

When he ran for governor, he bemoaned career politicians who “kick the can down the road” rather than address the state’s pressing fiscal woes.

Well, guess what, folks. The can has been kicked down the road again courtesy of Rauner and the Illinois General Assembly.

This time around, they put off the difficult decisions on where to make cuts or how much to raise taxes until after the election.

For the first time in the state’s 198-year history, Illinois went a year without a budget because the governor vetoed a budget that was $4 billion out of balance.

Like a scolding teacher who marks an “F” on a student’s term paper, Rauner handed the budget back to the legislative leaders and told them to do it over.

How to choose a fitness tracker

By ANICK JESDANUN The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Most fitness trackers can measure a lot: steps taken, heart beats, sleep quality and workout performance.

That’s a lot of data, but are they useful? It depends on what you’re looking for. Those new to fitness might want something that’s motivational, while those already active might want something sophisticated – but not necessarily easy to use.

Here’s a look at fitness devices from four leading manufacturers. Microsoft’s Band 2 and Motorola’s Moto 360 Sport were excluded from consideration in part because battery life was poor – tough for marathons of more than four hours.

The recommended devices all claim to be water resistant, so they can withstand sweat or rain. But only Garmin’s are designed for swimming and showering. And for Apple Watch, the protection doesn’t extend to leather bands.

For the basics

Fitbit is the market leader in wearable devices, thanks to its simplicity and wide range of offerings. At $130, the Fitbit Alta offers basic step tracking.

The $200 Fitbit Blaze adds heart-rate monitoring and a larger screen. The $300 Fitbit Surge adds GPS for better pace and distance readings during outdoor workouts.

For running and cycling, the Blaze doesn’t have GPS but borrows the one on your phone if you carry it.

All three models come with automatic sleep monitoring. Just check Fitbit’s companion app to see how long and how well you’ve slept. A new feature reminds you to go to bed – perhaps too gently, as it’s easy to overlook or ignore.

All Fitbits have amazing battery life and can go for several days without a recharge. Their screens aren’t as vivid as what rivals offer, although the Blaze has color, a first for a Fitbit.

One of Fitbit’s strengths lies in its community. If a friend has one, you can use Fitbit’s app to compete and nudge each other. As a result, Fitbits are good motivational device for those new to physical activity. Fitbits also sync with just about every device out there – iPhones, Android, Windows and Macs.

For the budget

Samsung’s Gear Fit2 offers high-end features at roughly half the price of a top-line Fitbit: $180. This includes GPS for better distance monitoring during outdoor workouts. There’s automatic sleep tracking, too.

The screen is more vivid than on Fitbits, but it can be tough to read in direct sunlight. You’ll need to crank up the brightness, which is fine, as the battery should still last six or seven hours with GPS use (and a few days without). The Fit2 also tracks squats, lunges and other strength exercises – rare in a tracker.

While the Fitbit Blaze and the Surge notify you of missed calls and messages on your phone, the capabilities are poor compared with smartwatches. The Fit2 does better by offering limited message replies from the device, but it doesn’t

offer the app choices that smartwatches do.

An Android phone is required for full functionality. You can compete with other users of Samsung’s S Health app – not just Fit2 owners – but the community isn’t as vibrant as Fitbit’s.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT THURSDAY, JULY 21, 2016

NEW YORK – Lady Gaga and her fiancé, actor Taylor Kinney, are on a break.

A representative for the singer said Tuesday that the couple is “taking a break.” Gaga confirmed the news with an Instagram post early Wednesday morning.

“Taylor and I have always believed we are soulmates.

Just like all couples we have ups and downs, and we have been taking a break,” she posted along with a photo of the couple with their shoulders around one another.

Gaga and Kinney, a star on the NBC series “Chicago Fire,” were engaged last year on Valentine’s Day.

Comic-Con launches with preview night, ‘Trek’ premiere SAN DIEGO – The hordes of zombies, legions of Stormtroopers, leagues of superheroes and crews of Starfleet officers have already begun crawling, marching, flying and beaming into San Diego for that other big convention this week: Comic-Con International.

The pop-culture celebration kicked off Wednesday evening with the festival’s preview night, where con-goers with four-day passes have first crack at the collectables, free swag and photo opportunities on the San Diego Convention Center floor.

Outside the sprawling bayside venue, the world premiere of “Star Trek Beyond” was held Wednesday night at the Embarcadero Marina Park. The sci-fi sequel’s U.S. debut will mark the first-ever outdoor IMAX screening.

Comic-Con is expected to draw more than 160,000 fans for high-energy sessions featuring casts and crews from such films and TV shows as “Game of Thrones,” ‘’Star Trek,” ‘’Suicide Squad,” ‘’South Park,” ‘’Teen Wolf,” ‘’Aliens” and “The Walking Dead.”

“I think the most important thing is for all of us to be there and acknowledge the fans’ support and passion,” said “Aliens” and “The Walking Dead” producer Gale Anne Hurd. “Obviously, we’ll have a (“Walking Dead”) promo and will premiere it in San Diego, but it’s that connection to the fans that Comic-Con is really all about.”

The festival will likely provide attendees with some never-before-seen surprises, as well as exclusive glimpses at such upcoming entertainment entries as “Wonder Woman,” ‘’Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,” ‘’Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets,” ‘’Riverdale” and a new “Star Trek” show.

Addiction has strong biological basis Dear Dr. K: My brother has struggled with addiction for years. I’ve told my husband addiction is a disease, but he claims my brother is weak and lacks willpower. Is he right?

Dear Reader: There is a lot of stigma and shame associated with addiction. But the truth is, people with substance-use disorders aren’t simply weak or immoral.

It surely is true people who try out illegal addictive drugs for recreational purposes are breaking the law. In my opinion, they also are doing something profoundly stupid. But they’re often teens, who tend to do a lot of stupid, impulsive things. Moreover, many people who become addicted to legal drugs were started on those drugs by their doctors.

The most important point is addiction has a biological basis. Addiction impairs the brain in many important ways. I spoke to my colleague Dr. Michael Bierer, an internist at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital, about this topic. We discussed a recent review article in The New England Journal of Medicine about the “brain science” of addiction and its management.

Here are some of the highlights: • An addicted person’s impaired ability to stop using drugs or alcohol has to do with deficits in the function of the prefrontal cortex. This is the part of the brain responsible for self-monitoring, delaying reward and integrating messages from the intellect (reason) and libido (pleasure center).

• The prefrontal cortex is not fully developed in adolescents and is particularly vulnerable during this time. The earlier the brain is exposed to a drug, the greater the potential for damage. Adolescence is a time when caution and intervention may prove most valuable, but it’s also the time

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff when it’s hardest to influence a person’s behavior.

• Once addiction sets in, which might be very early in experimenting with an addictive substance, the emotional response when a person is deprived of the drug is usually extreme negative emotion, a reaction that is “hard-wired” in the brain.

• In a particular setting, the strong association of learned environmental cues (for instance, seeing the corner where a person’s dealer can be found or entering the doctor’s office for re-evaluation of chronic pain) intensifies the craving for the substance.

• What’s more, the brain releases a flood of intensely intoxicating brain chemicals, called neurotransmitters, during drug use.

This is called the “reward pathway.” This makes the brain relatively insensitive to “normal” sources of pleasure, such as a conversation with a good friend or a beautiful sunset. And it makes the brain focus all of its attention on obtaining the addicting substance.

This brain science is helping to shape treatment strategies. Medications such as methadone and buprenorphine can stabilize cravings. This gives the reasoning part of the brain a chance to get back in shape and kick in. Once cravings are under control, a person may be able to develop alternative sources of joy and reward to avoid the cues that set off cravings.

entitlement is strictly a problem in the United States, your letter should banish that notion.

What you told your daughter makes perfect sense. If she wants independence, she should be prepared to accept the responsibility for living that way.

I would, however, encourage you to continue the dialogue with her so you can understand why she feels the need to live apart from you, on the chance a compromise might be possible. I’m sure it would be enlightening.

DEAR ABBY husband and his sister had a Jeanne rough childhood Phillips in foster care.

Long story short, they lost contact for 10 years – until now. She found us on Facebook and was desperate to know if she had found her brother or not. My husband ignored her. He isn’t sure he ever wants to rebuild a relationship with her.

I know that’s his decision to make, and if he doesn’t want her in his life, that’s fine. But I couldn’t live with myself if I ignored her, too. I just wanted her to know she could stop looking and wondering if her brother is still alive. So I told her. She was grateful to have some closure and know he is doing well, and she reassured me she wouldn’t contact him again unless he reaches out to her.

Now I feel guilty for going behind his back and meddling in things that aren’t my business.

But I can’t imagine spending my whole life searching for a family member, when someone could have been honest with me and given me peace of mind. Did I make a terrible mistake, and should I come clean to my husband about what I did? – Feeling Guilty In Georgia Dear Feeling Guilty: You failed to mention the reason for your husband’s ambivalence about re-establishing a relationship with his sister.

Now that she has found you on Facebook, she can follow his whole life, unless you block her.

Whether you made a terrible mistake remains to be seen. If the sister contacts your husband again, you will have to tell him what you did.

He might have wanted to protect his privacy.

As long as she doesn’t, I think you should keep your mouth shut.

Dear Abby: My 18-year-old daughter has just finished school. She now wants to take a gap year and work to save enough to travel overseas. The problem is, she’s so eager to get away from home she wants to move to another city to work.

I have advised her that staying home and working will allow her to save more to travel, and she would have to pay for her food, accommodation and transportation, and would have little left over to save to travel. She got upset with me and could not understand why I wouldn’t want to pay her rent or support her.

Am I being unreasonable saying she should pay her own way if she moves out of the home? –

Red Raiders blanked in semis to end summer season

Great night working with the future! #NFL #GDTBAR #MRM @LeathersChris – @RBCHSFootball (Richmond-Burton coach Pat Elder) Follow our writers on Twitter: Joe Stevenson – @NWH_JoePrepZone Alex Kantecki – @akantecki Jon Styf – @jonstyf

What to watch MLB: Detroit at White Sox, 7 p.m., CSN James Shields (4-11, 5.10 ERA) squares off against Mike Pelfrey (2-9, 4.95) in the opener of a four-game set at U.S. Cellular Field.

SCHAUMBURG – Logan DeWulf didn’t pitch during Huntley’s playoff run to the Class 4A supersectionals this spring. Wednesday night, he got the ball for the sixth and seventh innings of the Red Raiders’ 3-0 loss to Brother Rice in the Phil Lawler Summer Classic at Boomers Stadium.

“It was a lot of pressure going in for this game because it was a state game,” DeWulf said. “It’ll give me a little bit of experience for next season when I have to go in in a similar situation.”

Although Huntley’s summer season ended at the exact same location its spring season did, the run gave a team with high aspirations for 2017 experience playing under pressure.

“Making it to summer semifinals is quite an accomplishment, and I’m very proud of the kids and their effort that they put through,” Huntley coach Andy Jakubowski said. “We know how to work together. I think the younger guys know how to play the game at the varsity level, the way we play it. It’s a positive for everyone around, and we’ll do everything we can to get back here next year.”

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE q UNSUNG HERO

Alec Coss

Huntley, left fielder

Coss did not record an out in any of his at-bats Wednesday, hitting a single, reaching base on an error and executing a successful sacrifice bunt. He was one of two Huntley runners to advance to scoring position in the game – the other was Jeff Heinrich, who he sacrificed to second base in the first inning.

q THE NUMBER

3

Huntley batters recorded three hits against Brother Rice’s Ryan Palmblad, who threw a complete-game shutout.

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

There were a few similarities between Huntley’s two playoff losses in 2016: in both losses, the Red Raiders did not record a run, Adam Smylie was the losing pitcher and the game was played at Boomers Stadium.

Huntley starter Adam Smylie, also a key part of the team’s spring rotation, threw five innings, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits. Four of those hits were consecutive singles to start the fourth inning. But Smylie was able to hold Brother Rice to only one run

in that inning because of a pickoff, an out at the plate on a sacrifice bunt and an inning-ending strikeout. Brother Rice’s other two runs came after errors

by Huntley.

“They took advantage of two mistakes, and they put a lot of pressure on our defense and made us make some uncharacteristic mistakes that we don’t,” Jakubowski said. “…It probably should have been a 1-0 ball game.”

In the third inning, first baseman Denny Smith dropped what would have been an inning-ending foul popup by Brother Rice’s Kendall Pettis.

Pettis drew a walk and score on a Ryan King double.

In the sixth, a wild throw on a King bunt intended to move Pettis to second base nearly turned into two runs.

Huntley right fielder Brad Model rocketed a throw from right field to home plate, where DeWulf, covering the plate, tagged out Pettis.

“Thank God for Brad Model throwing an absolute bullet straight home,” DeWulf said. “To be honest, I thought I had no time at all. When I caught it, I looked, and I actually had two steps in. It was a pretty easy thing to do, just swipe the leg.”

said. “I don’t know what happened there, ... we couldn’t square him up.”

Despite the disappointment of ending the summer season with a loss, the Red Raiders’ appearance in the semifinals bodes well for a repeat run in spring 2017.

“I like the makeup of our team,” Jakubowski said. “I think defensively, we’re very good; on the mound, we’re very good. If we continue to work on our offensive approach, I think we’ll be a pretty good team going into next year. I told the guys, ‘We are a good team. Don’t get complacent, and keep working on it, and let’s get back to the super, and let’s go win that.’ ”

Casey Oliver’s goal was to play Division I baseball.

It’s a big reason he left D-III North Park and came to McHenry County College this past season. And on Tuesday, that goal became reality when he decided to play at Louisiana-Monroe.

“It is nice to say that I had a goal and was able to achieve it,” Oliver said.

Out of high school, Oliver didn’t have D-I chances. But, after MCC made it to the NJCAA Division II World Series this spring, opportunities opened up.

He spoke with College of Charleston and Stetson, but their catchers didn’t leave after the MLB draft and spots didn’t open up. He considered walking on at Iowa.

But, two weeks ago, the Warhawks called MCC coach Jared Wacker and since then the conversation has turned into a commitment.

ULM’s coaches first saw Oliver play

played his first season of college baseball at North Park before coming to MCC. He hit .426 with a .518 on-base percentage, four home runs and 28 RBIs in 68 at-bats as the Scots rotated three catchers.

“If I didn’t come back to MCC, there was no chance I was going to play Division I,” Oliver said. “Coach Wacker has been able to do a good job getting kids to Division I.” ULM has one catcher returning, who will be in the same class as Oliver as a junior after three senior catchers from last season graduated. Oliver said he was impressed that the Warhawks, who play in the Sun Belt Conferenc, regularly play in front of 1,800 fans.

“He works his tail off in the weight room,” Wacker said. “He runs better than most catchers. He provides that value as a runner, too.”

Wacker said Oliver is one of 14 MCC players moving on to play at four-year schools next year. Jacobs grad and MCC pitcher Reilly Peltier was drafted and signed by the Texas Rangers’ organization, where he pitches for the Rookie League Arizona Rangers.

“It’s great, that’s what we’re trying to do,” Wacker said. “Hopefully, guys in the area can see that we’re a great route to go to increase your value for the four-year schools.”

Cubs finish winning homestand

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

CHICAGO – By the time the news broke Wednesday afternoon that help was on the way, the Cubs already had done it themselves.

A team that stumbled for three weeks into the All-Star break – getting demoralized by the playoff-nemesis Mets for four games along the way – was back on its feet and looking October-bound by the time they finished off their first homestand of the second half Wednesday.

Kyle Hendricks, who has looked a lot more like a frontline starter than a fifth man, pitched into the seventh to beat the Mets, 6-2, Wednesday as the Cubs won back-to-back series against contenders before learning after the game that they had traded for Seattle left-hander Mike Montgomery.

Hendrcks lowered his ERA to 2.27, third in the majors.

Beating the Mets in a series for the first time in more than a year – after losing eight straight games to them, including the playoffs – was at least symbolic, if not significant in the clubhouse, for a team that might be faced with the Mets in the postseason again.

“I’m just glad we played well,” manager Joe Maddon said. “We’ve played

AP photo

Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo watches after hitting a fly ball during the first inning against the Mets on Wednesday at Wrigley Field. The Cubs won, 6-2. six really good games since the break.

That’s the part that has really stood out to me.”

The Cubs’ only two losses during the homestand were Sunday, against Texas Rangers’ ace Cole Hamels, and Tuesday against Mets ace Noah Syndergaard.

“We just want to keep winning series,” said Rizzo, who launched two more home runs – and possibly an MVP campaign – as he drove in half the Cubs’ runs, tying Colorado’s Nolan Arenado for the National League RBI lead (71) along the way.

As good as Rizzo has looked, the resurgence of the Cubs’ starting pitching was the most significant part of the homestand. A rotation that had a 6.04 ERA during a 6-15 slide into the break, went 4-1 with a 1.54 ERA in the six games, averaging almost seven innings a start.

Hendricks (9-6), who was the only starter with a win in the last 12 games leading into the break, quietly has been the staff’s steadiest pitcher all year.

“I think I’ve been doing a pretty good job ever since I’ve been up here,” said Hendricks, who earned a rotation spot for last year’s playoff team after he made an impressive 13-start debut in 2014. “I’m really just focused on what I can control and lately that’s been simplifying everything. I feel good in my mechanics. I feel good with the rapport I’ve had with Willson [Contreras] and [Miguel Montero] behind the plate.”

Hendricks, who struck out the side in two of his first three innings Wednesday, hasn’t allowed an earned run since June – taking a streak of 221/3 innings without an earned run into his next start.

“It’s kind of just picking up where I’ve left off after every start,” he said.

“This week I’ll have to get my fastball command a little bit, but overall it’s been good.”

Cubs trade for lefty reliever Montgomery

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

CHICAGO – Did the Cubs get their Andrew Miller for the bullpen without having to go through the Yankees?

Not likely. But the comparison crossed team president Theo Epstein’s mind as the Cubs landed left-hander Mike Montgomery and a pitching prospect Wednesday in a four-player trade with the Mariners that sent hitting prospect Dan Vogelbach and pitching prospect Paul Blackburn to Seattle.

“He’s certainly not a household name, but we think he’s got a chance to take off and maybe be the type of guy that you can’t get with a deal of this size,” said Epstein, who also has targeted the Yankees’ hard-throwing bullpen lefties, Miller and Aroldis Chapman, both veteran All-Stars.

With more than a week before the Aug. 1 trade deadline, Epstein’s front office isn’t done working on deals, he said, adding that players such as the second-year Montgomery are in a “different bucket” than the “established im-

pact guys” (i.e., Miller and Chapman) who could cost much more and go down to the final hours before the deadline.

“We’ll still be in on those guys,” Epstein said.

But the 6-foot-5 Montgomery, who has a 2.34 ERA and mid-90s fastball, could be an immediate boost for a bullpen that also could add six-time All-Star Joe Nathan in the next few days as he finishes a lengthy rehab from Tommy John surgery.

“Big arm,” said Cubs manager Joe Maddon, Mike who had Montgomery Montgomery briefly in Tampa Bay as a prospect in 2014. “Good guy.”

Montgomery, a 36th overall draft pick in 2008, made two starts and 30 relief appearances for the Mariners.

“Sometimes with these bullpen pieces, it’s important to get them when they’re on the way there, when they haven’t truly arrived yet,” said Epstein, who traded for Miller in Boston six

years ago and watched him turn into a shut-down, late-inning force.

“I’m not saying he’s Andrew Miller; very few are,” Epstein added of Montgomery, who won’t become arbitration eligible until after the 2018 season.

“But if you wait until they’re fully established, sometimes the price tag is so high that they’re virtually impossible to acquire. But if your scouts do a good job at identifying the guys who are trending in the right direction, and you’re willing to take a shot, sometimes there is a big payoff in the end.”

Montgomery, a starter throughout his professional career until this year, has held lefty hitters to a .164 average this season (.523 OPS). He also would be the third lefty in the bullpen (Travis Wood, Clayton Richard), pending corresponding moves.

“I know we don’t have too many lefties in the bullpen. To me, it’s a good sign,” closer Hector Rondon said. “Especially for [setup man Pedro Strop] and me, we’ll maybe be more fresh. I think it’s good for us.”

SEATTLE – Chris Sale came off a stretch of nine starts with a 5.56 ERA and held the Seattle Mariners to one hit in his first start after the All-Star break Monday.

A little rest, and a couple of minor fixes that came out of a beneficial bullpen session with White Sox pitching coach Don Cooper and bullpen coach Bobby Thigpen were big, Sale said.

“A couple keys of mine,” Sale said Wednesday. “It’s never anything major, it’s minor, not even changes, but just little fixes that get me back Chris Sale to where I need to be.”

Sale declined to be specific, saying with a smile the adjustments are “top secret.” The Sox ace, who is 14-3 with 3.18 ERA, had only four quality starts of his previous nine before Monday’s eight scoreless innings.

Sale also was pitching on nine days rest, aside from his one inning as the American League starter in the All-Star Game.

“It’s always nice to get a break,” he said. “You forget not only have you played half the season but all of spring training, too. It’s nice to have a few days in there to give your body a break. You’re constantly, going, going, going and to have consecutive off days and good recovery time is big in the middle of the season.”

Physically, Sale said he feels “really good.”

“There’s a lot that goes into it, finding a routine, being with [conditioning coach Allen Thomas] in

the weight room and the guys in the training room. You go station to station doing your routine and kind of find something that works. You make tweaks from year to year or week to week depending on how you feel, but they’re all very open minded here. It’s about getting yourself ready to pitch.”

Setback for Avila: Catcher Alex Avila, making his second minor league rehab stint at Triple-A Charlotte because of a strained right hamstring, was expected back Thursday but is being evaluated after he took himself out of a game Tuesday. The Sox will update Avila’s status Thursday.

Carroll traded: The Sox traded righthander Scott Carroll to the Texas Rangers for cash considerations. Carroll was 2-8 with a 5.55 ERA at Charlotte. He was 6-11 with a 4.60 ERA over the past three seasons of up-and-down major league service time with the Sox, including 19 starts in 2014.

Carroll was outrighted July 14.

Turner gets another shot: Former Cub Jacob Turner, who gave up eight runs over four-plus innings in his first start with the Sox on Sunday, gets a second shot Friday against the Tigers in Carlos Rodon’s vacant spot.

Ventura liked the way Turner’s fastball looked against the Angels but said he’ll have to change speeds more effectively against a tough Tigers lineup.

“He’s going to make some adjustments,” Ventura said. “His changeup is better than what he showed in the last outing. He has to mix it up.”

Rodon “has to feel well enough to do all the things he needs to go through to be ready to pitch in a big league game,” Ventura said. “There will probably be a rehab start. He hasn’t been able to let it go since he hurt his wrist.”

SEATTLE – The White Sox rediscovered their missing offense, handled the return of Seattle’s pitching ace and saw Todd Frazier homer for the third time in three games. They also held a threerun lead in the seventh inning.

And, they suffered their second walkoff loss of the three-game series.

Leonys Martin hit his second home run of the day, a solo shot with one out in the 11th inning that sent Seattle over the White Sox, 6-5, Wednesday on a day the Mariners got Felix Hernandez back in the rotation.

Todd Frazier “It is tough. Especially when you’re leading both of the ones that you lose late,” White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “Those are always tough to be able to bounce back. And our guys have bounced back, you just need to be able to add on.”

Martin hit a two-run drive in the second inning. He then drove a 0-2 pitch from Dan Jennings (3-2) over the wall in right for his 13th homer. His previous season high was eight homers in 457 atbats with Texas in 2013.

“It was not a good pitch,” Jennings said. “It was completely on me. [Catcher Dioner Navarro] even called for something else, and I shook to it. So that magnifies that it’s truly on me.”

Frazier hit a three-run homer in the first off Hernandez, activated off the disabled list earlier in the day. Frazier’s 28th home run tied him for the major league lead with Baltimore’s Mark Trumbo.

“It was a change-up. I left it up,” Hernandez said. “Frazier’s got pretty good

6 RIO OLYMPICS

Russian athletes await key ruling on track ban

By IULIIA SUBBOTOVSKA and STEPHEN WILSON The Associated Press

ZHUKOVSKY, Russia – Long jumper Ekaterina Koneva said she’ll cry.

World hurdles champion Sergei Shubenkov said he’ll drown his sorrows.

A day before a sports court rules on Russia’s appeal against the ban on its track and field team from the Olympics, star Russian athletes at a meet near Moscow pondered how they will react if they lose their case and can’t go to Rio de Janeiro.

“What if we are not admitted, what do we do?” asked Koneva, a world championship silver medalist who would be a contender for gold if allowed to go to Rio. “I hope they will tell us something good.”

Shubenkov said: “I will get drunk.”

The Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland will rule Thursday on an appeal filed by Russia’s Olympic track and field team of 68 athletes against a ban imposed by the sport’s world governing body, the IAAF, after allegations of state-sponsored doping and cover-ups.

As it stands, the IAAF has approved only two Russians to compete, as Ekaterina “neutral athletes,” after Koneva they showed they had been training and living abroad under a robust drug testing regime. One is doping whistleblower Yulia Stepanova, the other is Florida-based long jumper Darya Klishina, who has received threats on-

line from Russian fans who think she would betray her country by competing if the rest of the team is banned.

Thursday’s ruling is likely to weigh heavily on whether the International Olympic Committee could exclude the entire Russian team – across all sports, not just track – after new allegations of a vast state-sponsored doping program that covered many Olympic sports.

Canadian lawyer Richard McLaren, who was commissioned by the World Anti-Doping Agency, issued a report Monday that accused Russia’s sports ministry of orchestrating a vast doping program that affected 28 summer and winter Olympic sports.

The Russian appeal of the track ban was heard by a CAS panel Tuesday in Geneva, with two-time Olympic pole

Bulls sign guard Canaan

CHICAGO – The Bulls have signed guard Isaiah Canaan.

A three-year veteran, Canaan spent most of the past two seasons with Philadelphia.

He averaged a career-high 11 points last season while shooting 36 percent from the field and just better than 36 percent from long range, hitting 176 of 485 3-pointers. Canaan was one of 11 players in the NBA who made four or more 3s in at least 20 games.

The Bulls announced the signing, but did not reveal the terms of the contract Wednesday. Canaan’s agency tweeted last week that he agreed to a two-year deal.

Bears sign former Panthers guard Silatolu, waive QB Williams

LAKE FOREST – The Bears signed former Carolina Panthers guard Amini Silatolu.

The 6-foot-4, 320-pound Silatolu started 28 of the 34 games he appeared in over four seasons with the Panthers. Silatolu was mostly a backup last season and played in nine games before tearing the ACL in his left knee.

The Bears also waived quarterback Dalyn Williams on Wednesday. He was an undrafted rookie.

vault champion Yelena Isinbayeva on hand to represent the athletes. IAAF President Sebastian Coe also attended the hearing.

Two high-profile sports lawyers presented each side – California-based Howard Jacobs for the Russians, British attorney Jonathan Taylor for the IAAF. The decision will be closely scrutinized by the IOC, which said Tuesday it would “explore the legal options” for a possible total ban on Russia but would wait until after the CAS ruling before making a final decision.

If the IAAF ban is thrown out and the Russian track athletes are let back in, that would seemingly rule out the IOC imposing a blanket ban. If the ban is upheld, however, it would keep the option open.

In addition to fishing in the ICAST Cup tournament, I had to make my way through 650,000 square feet of exhibits along with 15,000 other attendees at the International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades.

The Orange County Convention Center in Orlando was chock-full of every kind of tackle you could imagine for every type of fishing you could possibly dream of. They call this the ultimate showcase for the latest innovations in gear and accessories, and that is no exaggeration.

First off, it is always amazing to see how many new companies there are entering this industry every year. The roster of firms that exhibit grows annually. It seems that when a company bites the dust, there are at least two new ones to fill the void.

I cannot believe how many brands of coolers are on the market. I am talking about the premium expensive coolers. There can’t be enough buyers out there willing to drop hundreds of dollars on boxes to hold ice and keep goods cold, can there?

There are an awful lot of companies selling clothing for anglers. Although many are geared to shirts and the like with catchy slogans on them, there are a number that make gear that is extremely beneficial. Available clothing that is sun-resistant or insect-repellent is on the upswing, and that is a good thing.

Sunglass manufacturers also are on the upswing. The Costa booth was a hotbed of activity from open to close, showing off the company’s unique premium eye protection items.

There are not many new brands of fishing reels coming to market, but the number of new rod companies is booming exponentially. I guess people think making rods must be easier than manufacturing reels. They usually find out this is not the case within a year or two. The players keep changing in this market while the traditional industry leaders such as St. Croix continue to grow.

Some companies have great

Trevathan, Freeman major upgrades Training camp

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com No position on the Bears, and maybe no other position group in the league, received more of an upgrade than the Bears’ inside linebackers.

The Bears went from Shea McClellin and Christian Jones to Danny Trevathan and Jerrell Freeman. The duo figures to shore up the middle of the defense, while the reserves will battle for special-teams roles.

Three things to watch at inside linebacker in training camp: Trevathan-Freeman effect: Fans in Bourbonnais will see and hear the difference right away when it comes to the Bears’ pair of new inside linebackers. Freeman will call the plays and be the vocal one, but Trevathan will bring it, too, as the two increased the energy at OTAs and minicamp. Trevathan is probably the more athletic one and will be counted on to make impact plays, AP photo while Freeman was a tackle machine Bears linebacker Danny Trevathan throws out a during his time in Indianapolis. As ceremonial first pitch before Tuesday’s Cubs- good as the pair can be, that will only Mets game at Wrigley Field. help the Bears’ offense, as running

back” playing style, something that should make him a valuable piece on special teams. The fourth-round pick out of West Virginia was highly productive in college, and although he won’t be expected to play much defense as a rookie, barring injury, he’ll use camp to transition to NFL special teams, where he could be an important player for Jeff Rodgers’ coverage units.

Timu vs. Anderson: Roster battle.

We go to the bottom of the inside linebacker depth chart where we find the two incumbents, John Timu and Jonathan Anderson, who are likely competing for one roster spot with Christian Jones having moved to outside linebacker. The two undrafted players each had moments last season. Timu started late and really impressed the coaches with how active he was against the Vikings in the run defense. Anderson was used at times in the nickel because his abilities covering backs and tight ends. They have a season of Fangio’s defense under their belts, but it likely will be special teams that settles this competition.

This is the eighth of our position-by-position series previewing what to watch in Bears training camp.

Players report Wednesday in Bourbonnais. backs, tight ends and receivers have to know what’s coming when they enter the middle of the practice field.

Seeing how Trevathan and Freeman make the players around them better also will be worth watching. Before expecting instant results, remember, this is a brand new defense for Trevathan and Freeman, with Bourbonnais providing the opportunity to hone in on what defensive coordinator Vic Fangio wants out of his new inside linebackers.

Kwiatkoski’s first camp: It’s clear Nick Kwiatkoski won’t start, and probably not for a while with two recently acquired players in front of him, which has made him somewhat of a forgotten draft pick. The staff liked Kwiatkoski’s “throw-

NFL

League to hire a chief medical officer The ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK – The NFL will be hiring a full-time chief medical officer to work with team medical staffs, the players’ union and league committees.

In a letter sent to the 32 team presidents and obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday, commissioner Roger Goodell said the chief medical officer also would work with “the broader independent scientific and medical communities.”

Roger Goodell The new hire will replace Dr. Elliot Pellman, who is retiring after 30 years in the league, and will have expanded duties.

Pellman mostly played an administrative role that included communication with NFL clubs regarding health and safety protocols. Pellman was not a member of any league medical committee. But much of the ear-

ly criticism of the NFL regarding its handling of concussions was directed at Pellman, who once famously downplayed links between head trauma and football.

Pellman is a rheumatologist with little expertise in head and brain trauma research, but he was involved in the formulation of the NFL’s concussion policies.

Goodell also told the teams the NFL must demonstrate strong leadership on health and safety “and that our players and fans need to trust in us.”

“In recognition of this priority (on player health and safety) and the increasing complexity of our work, we intend to hire a highly credentialed physician to serve as Chief Medical Officer and work in the league office on a full-time basis,” Goodell wrote.

A search will begin this week and will be conducted by a panel of health and medical experts led by Dr. Betsy Nabel, the league’s chief health and medical adviser.

JANEY- 1 YEAR 4 MONTHS OLD FEMALE AUSTRALIAN CATTLE DOG MIX RALPH- 1 YEAR 4 MONTHS OLD MALE AUSTRALIAN CATTLE DOG MIX They came from a kill shelter in Ohio and they are brother and sister. They are very sweet but can be shy at first. We were told they love children but not cats. They probably would do well in a home with another dog. They are both medium sized at around 40 pounds. They are tricolored but mostly white with some ticking.

Our staff says they are good on a leash and appreciate their walks.

They seem to show more confidence when they are with each other so they might enjoy the company of another dog. Australian Cattle Dogs are affectionate and playful. They are usually reserved with strangers and cautious in new situations. They are wash and wear dogs that require some brushing to keep the coat clean and odor free. As a breed they are suited to any activity that calls for athleticism, intelligence and endurance. We think once Janey and Ralph are shown some love and given time they will become great companions. Please come spend some time getting to know them at Helping Paws located at 2500 Harding Lane, Woodstock, Ill. 815-338-4400 www.helpingpaws.net

Louie Anderson has performed stand-up comedy for more than 30 years. He recently was nominated for an Emmy for his role as a mother (below) in FX’s “Baskets.”

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

Fresh off an Emmy nomination for his work on FX’s “Baskets,” Louie Anderson promises to make you forget your troubles at the Raue Center for the Arts stage.

The comedian, who previously won two Emmy Awards for his work on the animated Fox series, “Life With Louie,” will perform at 8 p.m. July 29 at the Raue, 26 N. Williams St., Crystal Lake. Tickets start at $31 at www.rauecenter.org or 815356-9212.

Anderson learned last week he’d been nominated for best supporting actor in a comedy series, with the Emmy ceremonies to take place Sept. 18.

In the new hit “Baskets,” Anderson plays Christine Baskets, the mother of two sets of twins, including Chip, played by Zach Galifianakis, who dreams of being a French clown in Bakersfield, California.

The series is co-created by Louis C.K. and Jonathan Krisel.

“It’s a dark slapstick,” Anderson said “I’ve heard it called a lot of different things, but that’s the one that sticks. … You know, people love the Christine character. They really grabbed onto her. I’m just really thrilled my first season of playing the character, I got an Emmy nomination.”

With the series picked up for a second season, Anderson said he’s hoping the show – featuring a unique family he said has never before been seen on TV – gets more exposure.

In it, the Minnesota native said he channels his mom and five sisters. He grew up as the second youngest of 11 children.

“The writing’s so good that that helps a lot, and I just try to be as maternal and honest as I can,” he said. “I really try to be honest. Of course, I try to be funny, but not in a cartoonish way. I want the character to be real.”

Named by Comedy Central as “One of the 100 Greatest Stand-up Comedians of All Time,” Anderson also continues the comedy that has drawn fans to his routine for more than 30 years, since making his stand-up television debut on “The Tonight Show” in 1984.

Along with “Life With Louie,” he’s had numerous television and film roles through the years, appearing alongside Eddie Murphy in “Coming to America” in 1988, starring in his own CBS sitcom “The Louie Show” in 1996 and hosting “Family Feud” from 1999 to 2002. He filmed the stand-up special, “Louie Anderson: Big Baby Boomer” in 2012.

LOUIE ANDERSON WHEN: 8 p.m. July 29 WHERE: Raue Center for the Arts, 26 N. Williams St., Crystal Lake COST & INFO: Two-time Emmy award winner Louie Anderson, named by Comedy Central as “One of 100 Greatest Stand-Up Comedians of All Time,” will perform a live stand-up show. Tickets start at $31. Tickets and information: 815-356-9212 or www.rauecenter.org.

“My comedy comes from my life experience,” he said. “I’m trying to be a little more edgier and a little more current.”

Regularly performing in Las Vegas, he said he hopes to tape a new special on New Year’s Eve in Minnesota and continually is working on new material.

At the Raue, he said, “You’re going to hear a lot of my new stuff, but you’re going to hear a lot of my old. People like to hear about Dad. They like to hear about Mom and her butter. …

“I hope I give them something to reminisce about their own families and something to take home with them. Really that’s what a performance is all about.

I want them to feel much better leaving than they did when they got there, and that’s always my goal. I try to give 100 percent.”

Listen to the Unprintable podcast Along with his Raue performance, hear Louie chat about his father’s mechanical abilities, including how to start a car using gasoline and a lit match. Plus, Crystal Lake author Elizabeth Harmon and artist Travis Cakos of Art by Pale Horse.

“[title of show]”

‘[title of show]’ a meta journey worth taking REVIEWS Jeff Cook

“[title of show]” is a charming and entertaining show that will make you laugh, think and, ultimately, cheer. It’s “Rocky” for the Broadway set (although it could be argued “Rocky, the Musical” is “Rocky” for the Broadway set, but I digress), only much funnier and with much more adult language.

Part of TheatreFEST, William Street Repertory and the Raue Center for the Arts’ joint venture to bring new theater experiences to audiences across McHenry County, “[title of show]” tells the story of Jeff (Joel Bennett), Hunter (Billy Seger), Heidi (Amanda Flahive) and Susan (Sarah Jordan), who decide to submit a show to a theater festival but have only three weeks to put something together. The end result is an extremely meta production wherein the journey to make the show becomes the show. Will they be successful? It’s a confusing premise, but roll with it and you’ll be glad you did.

The name, “[title of show],” comes from the entry at the top of the submission form the gang decides they’re going to use for the actual title of their show. It also can stand, however, for the blank entries that make up our lives, empty spaces we fill in as we grow up that decide who and what we will be and what it means to be successful. Throughout the show, each of the characters struggle with these issues,

albeit through hilarious dialogue and catchy tunes on a bare stage consisting of a backdrop and four chairs. The finished product, with music and lyrics by Jeff Bowen and book by Hunter Bell, was nominated for a Tony Award in 2009.

With no flashy dance numbers, awe-inspiring sets or dazzling special effects, the production relies heavily on the cast and staff and, in this, Williams Street Repertory – McHenry County’s only professional theater company – has struck gold. Under the superb direction of ensemble member Regina Belt-Daniels, the four friends begin life as out-sized characters, only to have their humanity, fears and foibles revealed in the second half. The experience is revelatory. The pace of the show is frenetic, and the actors embrace their roles with zeal and a joyful quality that is infectious. A lesser hand would have been hard pressed not to lose control, but Belt-Daniels keeps everything running at a smooth hum, always keeping the audience perspective in mind.

Belt-Daniels also choreographed the show with whimsical steps appropriate for the characters and their situation. Musical director Mike Potts, lighting designer Eric Watkins, scenic artists William Schmiel and Kristen Prescott-Ezickson and sound designer Lindsay Wolf all help bring life to the production in subtle, yet effective ways.

Bennett, Seger, Flahive and Jordan are a talented and likeable ensemble who know how to give and take in their scenes so each character has a chance to live and breathe. They leave everything on the stage; the energy in their performances

WHEN: Through Aug 6 WHERE: Raue Center for the Arts, 26 N. Williams St., Crystal Lake COST & INFO: A Williams Street Repertory presentation as part of TheatreFEST. Production is 90 minutes without an intermission. Schedule: 8 p.m. July 23, Aug. 5-6; 3 p.m. July 24, 30. Tickets: $32.50, $38.50. Tickets and information: 815-3569212 or www.rauecenter.org. is palpable and electric. Their voices, individually and as a unit, sound spectacular, with not a note misplaced. Strong individual and vocal performances (“Two Nobodies in New York,” “Die, Vampire, Die,” “A Way Back to Then”) showcase these talents. Kudos also to the unsung fifth cast member, pianist Evan Swanson, for adding his talent and humor.

Most importantly, all involved realize even though comedy and music may be what brings the audiences in, the truth ultimately connects us to the material.

Those moments, when the characters reveal themselves to us and each other, are handled with an honesty that only comes from working together for long periods of time in a place of trust and cooperation. I found myself wanting to spend more time with these people. “[title of show]” contains lots of adult language and is not appropriate for younger family members. But for the rest of us: if you love musical comedy, if you’ve felt the bonds of close friends, if you’ve ever dared to dream and strived to achieve the impossible, you’ll find much to shout about “[title of show].”

“HELLO, DOLLY!”

Robert Kryscha, as Mr. Vandergelder, and Mary Barrett, as Dolly, star in the Right-Center-Left Production Company’s “Hello Dollly!”

WHEN: Through July 31 WHERE: Ridgefield-Crystal Lake Presbyterian Church, 8505 Church St., Crystal Lake COST & INFO: A Right-Center-Left Production Company dinner-theater presentation to benefit PADS, Living Waters for the World and Diaper Bank. Schedule: 7 p.m. July 22-23, 29-30; 2 p.m. July 24, 31.

eldest daughter needs a friend.” Her true gift is in social introductions, but after matching up her latest client, Horace Vandergelder (Robert Kryscha), a “half-millionaire,” Dolly realizes Horace is her own best shot at happiness and/or survival. Ambrose Kemper (Andy Conrad), a young man who’s in love with Horace’s niece, Ermengarde (Sydney Adkins), also needs Dolly’s help to receive Horace’s blessing. And Horace’s two main employees in his feed store in Yonkers, Cornelius (Ryan McNerney) and Barnaby (Sam Martin), are taking a day off to tour the Big Apple as they musically vow, “We won’t come home until we’ve kissed a girl!”

Can Dolly subtly stop Horace from proposing to another widow, hatmak-

er Irene Molloy (Caralynn Shields) and receive a marriage offer herself?

Will Horace give his blessing to Ambrose and the hilariously whiny and loud Ermengarde (kudos to Adkins for a memorable portrayal)? Will Cornelius and Barnaby each find a woman who’s willing to show affection? I won’t answer those questions here, but I’m a sucker for happy endings, and this show has more than one.

Dolly Levi has been played on stage by everyone from Carol Channing to Pearl Bailey to Ethel Merman. Norton is lucky to have found Barrett, whose bio says she recently returned to the stage after a two-decade hiatus. Thank goodness Barrett’s back, for she truly becomes this force of nature, endearing Dolly to us with her conversations

Pop quiz: What musical won 10 Tony Awards in 1964, a record previously attained by “South Pacific”? It’s “Hello, Dolly!,” running through July 31 at the Ridgefield-Crystal Lake Presbyterian Church in a dinner-theater production (dessert-theater on Sundays) from the relatively new RightCenter-Left Production Company.

Coming a year after RCLPC’s first show – the single-set comedy “You Can’t Take It With You” – this show ramps up the complexity with ‘Dolly,’ a multi-location musical, complete with singing, dancing, a 20-person cast and four or five instrumentalists.

Director Barry Norton, music director John Morefield and choreographer Jocelyn France embraced the challenge and, with the period-costume help of Kristi Geggie and Holly Adkins, have created a fun, enjoyable production that’s family-friendly.

Based on the play “The Matchmaker” by Thornton Wilder, and with a book by Michael Stewart and music and lyrics by Jerry Herman, “Hello, Dolly!” is the story of the irrepressible Dolly Levi (Mary Barrett), a widowed matchmaker who – as we find out early on – is the one you call “if your

to her late husband (“I’ve decided to rejoin the human race”), her schemes and her serious acknowledgment early on she’s tired of living hand to mouth.

Martin and McNerney make a great Laurel & Hardy pair, especially in a comic scene in Irene’s hat shop.

McNerney’s singing and sincerity made me smile in the song “It Only Takes a Moment.” An earlier quartet of “Elegance” by Martin, McNerney, Shields and Kenzie Parry (as an employee of Irene’s) also was a highlight.

I heard a few off-key notes, set changes occasionally are distracting, and Kryscha’s portrayal of Horace struck me as a bit too angry in his first scene. But these are minor quibbles for a show that made me smile a lot.

When it comes to seeing Barrett in this fun role, just like the song says, “It’s so nice to have you back where you belong.”

Recent productions in which he’s acted include “Into the Woods,” “The Drowsy Chaperone” and “A Christmas Carol” (2014) at the Woodstock Opera House. He’s also done Get Lit dramatic readings at Le Petit Marché.

Steppenwolf‘s ‘Between Riverside and Crazy’ prophetic REVIEWS Regina M. Belt-Daniels To close out its 40th season, former Steppenwolf artistic director Martha Lavey selected the 2015 Pulitzer Prize-winning “Between Riverside and Crazy.” It’s a timely dark comedy that hits diversity, race, respect, societal mores and a father-son relationship trying to mend wounds after tragedy.

“Between Riverside and Crazy” was written by Stephen Adly Guirgis and directed by Steppenwolf ensemble member Yasen Peyankov. Guirgis is well respected as a champion of the little guy, and this play does not deviate from that intent.

Pops Washington is a black, ex-New York City police officer embroiled in a lawsuit against the city for more than eight years. Pops was shot by a white rookie police officer at a nightclub; “he shot everything black in the whole

“BETWEEN RIVERSIDE AND CRAZY” WHEN: Through Aug. 21 WHERE: Steppenwolf Theatre, 1650 N. Halsted St., Chicago COST & INFO: Two acts, one intermission. Contains adult language and situations. An American Sign Language presentation is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

July 31. Tickets: $20 to $89. Tickets and showtimes: 312-335-1650 or www. steppenwolf.org. joint and somehow didn’t hit anything white.” While mourning the loss of his wife, Pops also is desperately trying to hold on to his rent-controlled Manhattan apartment with the hopes of leaving it to his ex-con son, Junior. Pops, much to the chagrin of his much wealthier neighbors, also maintains an open door policy. “Between Riverside and Crazy” is a good story with straight-forward, solid acting, and it’s written in such a

personal way, you feel you are eavesdropping on the characters’ lives.

British actor Eamonn Walker, best known for his current role as Chief Boden in NBC’s “Chicago Fire” and previously as Kareem Said in HBO’s “Oz,” is Pops. He projects frailty and weariness under a veneer of toughness – a dignified, wise old lion who roars and whimpers with an expressive face.

James Vincent Mitchell portrays Junior, Pops’ son, with all the confusion, tension, anger and appeals for his father’s approval and love the character requires. Victor Almanzar reprises his role as Osvaldo, for which he won the Lucille Lortel award for Best Supporting Actor. Osvaldo gets to deliver some of the funnier lines (“we rented that Denzel movie that looks like it’s good, but it’s not”) and is both sympathetic and unnerving.

The supporting ensemble is captivating with Elena Marisa Flores as Lulu, the student girlfriend of Junior, Audrey Francis as Detective O’Connor, the staid former partner of Pops, and Lily Mojekwu as the charmingly

complicated Church Lady. But it is Tim Hopper as Lieutenant Caro who almost steals the show – he’s the cool, calm, administrative professional who is torn between what is right, what’s logical and what’s good for the city in settling Pops’ lawsuit.

Everything works in this production, particularly Collette Pollard’s twostory set design. It’s wondrous, comfy and nostalgic. In view of the recent Dallas shootings, Pops’ words “the job ends up killing us one way or another” and “what a wonderful world this would be if what was right was easy enough” seem especially poignant.

Kudos to Steppenwolf for another energetic, risky and almost prophetic production. It makes you laugh while you think long after you exit.

Giant expectations

Jared Ritter plays the Earthworm during a July 18 rehearsal for “James and the Giant Peach, Jr.” Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Woodstock youth among first to perform ‘James and the Giant Peach, Jr.’

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com You might be familiar with “James and the Giant Peach,” but you don’t know this “James and the Giant Peach,” say those involved with Woodstock Children’s Summer Theatre.

The show, based on the popular children’s novel written by British author Roald Dahl in 1961 about the adventures of a young orphaned boy forced to live with his cruel aunts who finds a way out of his bleak existence when he discovers an enormous enchanted peach, will be July 22-24 at the Woodstock Opera House.

Its producers believe this to be the first time the musical will be performed in the Chicago area.

“People know the story, but they don’t know the music,” said Sue Kazlusky, the play’s director. This is her 22nd production for Woodstock Children’s Summer Theatre, which has been around for nearly 30 years.

“I think people are going to be amazed at it,” she said. “It’s just phenomenal music.”

Featuring a cast of 48 fourththrough eighth-graders – all living or going to school within District 200’s boundaries – and 30 teens helping backstage and with costumes and makeup, the production will bring the classic children’s book to life, she said.

About 85 children auditioned to be part of the show, but Kazlusky has to limit the cast yearly to fit everyone on the Woodstock Opera House stage.

Performing at the Woodstock Opera House is a priority, she said.

“When they go into high school, they’re on the stages there. We didn’t want to move to one of the high schools because they’re going to have that experience,” she said. “We wanted them to have an experience they might not normally get.”

“JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH, JR.” WHEN: July 22-24 WHERE: Woodstock Opera House, 121 Van Buren St., Woodstock COST & INFO: Woodstock Children’s Summer Theatre presentation. Roald Dahl’s children’s tale follows the adventures of a young orphaned boy forced to live with his cruel aunts who finds a way out of his bleak existence when he discovers an enormous enchanted peach. Schedule: 2 p.m. July 22, library program; 7 p.m. July 22, Woodstock Children’s Summer Theatre fundraiser dinner show; 2 & 7 p.m. July 23 and 3 p.m. July 24. Tickets: $10 regular admission, $6 library program, $20 adults (fundraiser dinner show), $15 students (fundraiser dinner show). Tickets and information: 815-338-5300 or www.woodstockoperahouse.com.

Like sporting events for athletes, the theater program aims to give those whose talents lie in the arts the

chance to shine.

“On different levels, it will appeal to different people,” Kazlusky said.

“For little kids, it’s a great retelling of a children’s classic. For moms and dads, it might be looking at the amazing costumes.

“I think there’s an element of people out there who will be able to appreciate the hard work and talent of these kids and their gifts.”

The program aims to keep ticket costs down – $10 for regular admission – to make live theater affordable, she said, while still raising enough money to continue doing the program.

“We’ve built up a wonderful base [of volunteers] that the teens just want to come back because it was the highlight of their summer in grade school and junior high,” she said.

Crystal Lake native’s horror movie ‘Lights Out’ opens Friday in theaters NORTHWEST HERALD

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

With a budget of only $6 million, the film earned a worldwide release Friday alongside the big-name summer blockbusters “Star Trek Beyond” and “Ice Age: Collision Course.”

“To get a worldwide release in the middle of summer with a tiny budget like that confirms the execution of the film is particularly high and audiences really love it,” Everard told the Northwest Herald last month on pop culture podcast Unprintable.

The filmmaker came to his former high school in May to talk about the film industry.

This Friday, local residents will get to see the horror film with Crystal Lake ties, “Lights Out,” in theaters.

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

A scene from “Lights Out,” starring Teresa Palmer (right) and Gabriel Bateman.

WELCOME SENSE OF HUMOR INVADES ‘STAR TREK BEYOND’ In the previous “Star Trek” installment, Spock cried. In the latest, “Star Trek Beyond,” he laughs. And not just a little snicker, either, but a belly-full one. What bold explorations into the farthest reaches of the galaxy hold for Spock no one knows. A sigh? A hiccup?

“Star Trek Beyond” delights in nostalgically resurrecting iconic characters and tweaking them anew.

The balance is a delicate one, as seen in the pre-release debate around this film revealing Sulu (John Cho but formerly played by LGBT icon George Takei) as gay.

The scene in question turns out to be a mere moment, lightly handled, showing Sulu greeting his same-sex partner and their daughter after a long mission. It’s all expressed with a few arms tenderly draped across shoulders.

And it’s the kind of welcome touch director Justin Lin, the “Fast & Furious” veteran who takes over for J.J. Abrams, has brought to this pleasingly episodelike installment.

The opening scene, fittingly, plays with a smaller scale. Captain Kirk (Chris Pine), on a diplomatic mission, appeals to a snarling beast looming above him in a crowded amphitheater.

Enraged at Kirk’s offer, the alien beast hurtles down upon him, only to turn out to be no more monstrous than a feisty bulldog. The film finds a bored Enterprise finishing up a five-year tour in deep space. The (albeit brief) change of pace immediately is appreciated.

Like its recent predecessors, “Star Trek Beyond” is mostly an assort-

The following are showtimes for July 22-24 unless otherwise noted.

STARRING: Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Karl Urban PLOT: The USS Enterprise crew explores the furthest reaches of uncharted space, where they encounter a new ruthless enemy who puts them and everything the Federation stands for to the test.

RATED: PG-13 for sequences of sci-fi action and violence RUNNING TIME: 2 hours

SPRING GROVE – This year’s maze at Richardson Adventure Farm is a tribute to the 50th anniversary of “Star Trek.”

The farm at 909 English Prairie Road in Richmond, which prides itself in having the world’s largest corn maze, will open Sept. 3 with about 10 miles worth of trails through the 28acre corn field.

The family is putting the finishing touches on the design for the 16th annual corn maze, which features depictions of actors from the original “Star Wars” television series debut-

ment of effects-heavy scenes with bits of talking in between. But unlike the previous film, 2013’s bloated “Star Trek Into Darkness,” not everything is quite so much of a life-and-death issue.

The Starship Enterprise, led by Captain Kirk (with Pine looking more natural in the role), is lured through a nebula where a would-be rescue mission turns into a trap set by the villain Krall, whose spectacular army of mechanical drones (“bees” he calls them) attack in an overwhelming swarm.

The heart of the film is the bromance between Kirk and Zachary Quinto’s Spock. They’re Felix and Oscar in outer space, and still the highlight of this batch of “Star Trek” films.

Spoiler alert! It’s only late in the film the alien mask is pulled away revealing the actor underneath Krall: Idris Elba.

For those who didn’t place his baritone earlier, the reveal comes as a disappointment. It should be a crime in deep space, as it is on Earth, to shroud such a tremendous force behind mountains of extraterrestrial makeup. But I suppose had Elba been an unadorned baddie all along, the Enterprise really might have finally met its match.

ing in 1966 on NBC. “We got the go-ahead from CBS and Paramount, and we have permission to use Leonard Nimoy’s [Mr. Spock] and William Shatner’s [James T. Kirk] images,” said Wendy Richardson, one of the five family members who own and operate the maze.

Last year’s maze featured the Blackhawks and attracted more than 80,000 people.

One Day Only: First Annual Courtyard Walk in Woodstock, Illinois

Maples at the Sonatas to Host Unique “Courtyard Walk” Event on Saturday, July 23rd During the Courtyard Walk event, the Woodstock community known for maintenance-free ranch style living will have two new decorated models open to tour in addition to eight homeowners’ courtyards. This event, taking place on Saturday, July 23rd from noon to 5:00 PM, will provide prospective buyers with a rare glimpse inside of the community.

Maples at the Sonatas offers maintenance-free ranch homes in a charming clubhouse community. Highlights of the community include two to three bedroom homes with spacious living areas, seasonal verandas, private outdoor living spaces, a community clubhouse, outdoor pool, and on-site fitness center. Located just minutes from entertainment, shopping, dining and more, Maples at the Sonatas is the ideal place to begin the

next stage of life.

The greatest aspect of the Maples at the Sonatas lifestyle is that it is maintenance-free. A professional association handles tasks such as lawn mowing, weed control, landscape maintenance, exterior building maintenance, and snow removal. Wilcox Communities, a family-owned builder, feels that providing residents with a maintenance-free lifestyle allows them the time to enjoy the aspects of life that are most important to them.

As they like to say, “We do the work.

You do the living.”

At Maples at the Sonatas there are five different floorplans available, ranging in size from approximately 1,500 to 2,900 square feet. Open layouts and gourmet kitchens allow each home to easily and comfort-

ably host friends and family, while sunrooms and personalized outdoor spaces allow owners to extend their living space in a way that suits their individual needs and lifestyles.

Summer is the perfect time to get out and explore this distinctive com-

munity. Mark your calendar for the Courtyard Walk on July 23rd from noon to 5:00 PM at 645 Handel Lane in Woodstock, Illinois. For more information, call (815) 334-0340 or visit WilcoxCommunities.com.

Luka Sulic, who was born in Slovenia, said, “It can rock like the hardest rock guitar, and it can sing like the human voice. ... It’s a hard instrument to play. There are no frets, and it takes finesse and technique to play.”

Which musical instrument was he talking about?

Some contracts play like a perfectly tuned instrument, especially when key finesses succeed. But getting to those contracts may require guesswork. In today’s deal, for example, look at the North hand. Your partner opens one spade, you respond one no-trump (6-9 points), and he rebids two hearts. What would you do now, if anything?

There is a natural reaction to pass, but with a maximum nine points, North should rebid two spades because if partner is strong enough to bid a third time, North-South can probably make a game.

Here, South might well continue with three hearts (North raises to four hearts) or three clubs (North bids three hearts, and South raises to four hearts).

When the deal was played, West led a diamond against four hearts.

South ruffed, played a heart to dummy’s queen (yes!), led a club to his queen (yes again!), played a spade to dummy’s king, took another club finesse, drew a second round of trumps with dummy’s ace, and started to run the spades. Declarer had no trouble taking 12 tricks, losing only to East’s heart jack.

Obviously, you would not want to be in slam (except that it makes!), but many pairs would not even reach the decent game.

Luka Sulic was discussing the cello.

He and Stjepan Hauser form a duo called 2Cellos.
