Good morning, McHenry County ...

Cynical responses to a woman’s good fortune So, here’s how cynical many of us have become as a result of Illinois’ ever-growing financial crisis ...

A Crystal Lake woman wins $250,000 on a scratch-off Illinois Lottery ticket she purchased at a local grocery store, and among the comments on a Facebook post about her good fortune are these: “Did she get an IOU?” and “Maybe the state will pay up in time for her retirement – maybe.”

Yes, there were some “Congratulations” and “Why can’t we be so lucky” responses, the kind you’d expect, at least in 49 other states.

But here in Illinois, where state government has a budget deficit of nearly $8 billion and a backlog of bills that will approach $10 billion by December, cynicism reins.

And why shouldn’t it.

The deficit and past-due bills exist even though Illinois residents have among the largest tax burden in the country. The state’s five public pension systems are underfunded by more than $110 billion, good for worst in the nation. Social service providers have had to

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Dan McCaleb cut hundreds of programs that help more than a million of the state’s most at-risk residents.

All the while, Speaker of the House Michael Madigan sits on his throne, refusing to allow critical changes needed to turn our fortunes around, changes such as tort, worker’s compensation, redistricting and pension reform.

I’ll set my cynicism aside for a moment to say congratulations to Marie Albanese, the local lottery winner.

Hopefully you have something left over after you pay your property taxes. (Sorry, couldn’t help it.)

POTTER SCRIPT SELLS MORE THAN 2 MILLION COPIES IN 2 DAYS NEW YORK – Not even “Hamilton” can keep up with these numbers.

The script to the London stage production “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Parts One and Two” sold more than 2 million print copies in North America in its first two days of publication, Scholastic announced Wednesday.

That’s well below the 8.3 million copies sold in 2007 for the first day of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” J.K. Rowling’s then-presumed finale for

her fantasy series. But it’s still among the fastest-selling works in history and a remarkable number for the script to a play and for a project that only partially involved Rowling. A text edition of “Hamilton” also has been a best-seller this year.

Meanwhile, the British publisher Little, Brown Book Group announced that over 680,000 print copies sold in the first three days in the United Kingdom. Waterstones buying director Kate Skipper said in Aa statement that no hardcover had sold so quickly in the U.K. since Dan Brown’s “The Lost Symbol” in 2009.

PAGEANT CONTESTANTS DAZZLE AUDIENCE Gianisa Dougherty of Huntley crowned Miss McHenry County

By KATIE ANDERSON–TEDDER editorial@nwherald.com

WOODSTOCK – There were gowns, hair extensions and high heels. There were swimsuits, struts and 1,000-watt smiles.

But what dazzled the audience most Wednesday night at the 2016 McHenry County Fair Pageant were the speeches given by participants during the speech and communications part of the competition.

Contestants drew the loudest applause after giving talks on issues close to their hearts. Topics ranged from the importance of foster care and adoption, to why reading, good role models and conservation are important.

Junior Miss contestant Cheyanne Bierman encouraged everyone in her speech to “show your inner beauty.”

Lainey Kruse of McHenry shared a little about life with depression and

anxiety in her speech. Kruse won Miss Congeniality as well as People’s Choice from the Miss McHenry County group.

The newly crowned Miss Teen McHenry County, Meg Basco, used her time to encourage listeners to realize the effect one person’s actions can have on a community. The 16-year-old talked about watching the world’s reaction to the terror events in the United States during a recent study abroad experience. She challenged listeners to “be the change you wish to see in the world.”

By the time crowns were placed on the 2016 queen class, each of Wednesday night’s 39 pageant participants had a chance to showcase her joy, beauty and aspirations.

Although the Miss McHenry County Fair pageant has a history of more than 60 years, this year’s event offered several firsts.

Hugh Holian leads rescued steer Frozen to the beef barn Tuesday. Last winter one of the family’s cows gave birth prematurely on a cold night, resulting in a deadly situation for the newborn. The calf was just barely breathing out of one nostril and his eyes were frozen shut. The calf lost half its ear and has some scarring on its nose. Frozen will be auctioned off at the fair’s Hansen Pavilion on Saturday, where McHenry County businesses can bid on the calves.

LOCAL BRIEF

Styrofoam collection in Algonquin suspended

ALGONQUIN – The plastic foam collection site at the Algonquin Public Works Facility is closed, effective immediately, according to a news release from the village. The outlets that were taking the densified foam are no longer accepting the Styrofoam-type material, the news release said.

The village is exploring other outlets for plastic foam and will collect it again if a market can be found for recycling and reusing the product. Until further notice, all plastic foam will have to be disposed with the regular garbage, the village said.

Steer that almost froze to death being shown at the county fair Richmond family placed freezing newborn calf into hot tub to save it

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Attendees of the 2016 McHenry County Fair will be able to see a steer Thursday that nearly froze to death as a baby but was saved by a family in Richmond.

Chris Holian, the co-owner of Holian Farm in Richmond, said one of her steers that is being displayed at the 2016 fair was caught in a winter storm last year and almost died. However, Holian and her family were able to save the calf that night.

“It’s just pretty special that we saved that calf and he’s been shown at the fair,” Holian said.

Holian said that one of her cows gave birth prematurely on a cold, winter

weeks early,” Holian said. “And we found [the frozen calf] like an hour and a half later. The calf was just barely breathing out of one nostril and his eyes were frozen shut.”

Holian said her husband, Dennis, tried putting the calf in a hot tub in an attempt to save its life. The calf was then left soaking in the hot tub for about 45 minutes to an hour.

While the calf lost half its ear and has some scarring on its nose from the cold, the hot tub rescue worked and that same steer can be seen at this year’s fair.

“You can tell he was frozen because he Holian waits as his rescued steer Frozen is only has like half an ear now and his nose weighed Tuesday at the beef barn at the had frostbite,” Chris said. “But otherwise McHenry County Fair grounds.

Airport starts construction on final phase of taxiway project

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – The Lake in the Hills Airport has started construction for the final phase of a $2.3 million taxiway project, which will eventually allow for the widening of the airports’ one runway, Airport Manager Michael Peranich said.

Improvements to the taxiway started about three years ago to create a buffer zone between the runway and taxiway, Peranich said. The former airport administration building was demolished Tuesday because it was in the way of the new taxiway, he said.

The taxiway project is part of a larger safety improvement program for the airport, Peranich said, and the goal is ultimately to bring it up to Federal Aviation Administration standards and eliminate a modification of standards from the FAA’s file.

The modification of standards is a document that says the FAA recognizes the airport was privately owned before being purchased by the village in the mid-1980s, Peranich said, and

News sent to your phone Text the keyword NWHLITH to 74574 to sign up for LAKE IN THE HILLS news text alerts from the Northwest Herald. Message and data rates apply. therefore is not up to all FAA standards.

“There are obviously some financial challenges to bring the entire airport up to specifications or design criteria of the day,” Peranich said,“So [the FAA] recognizes that challenge, and they’ve basically allowed us to continue operating as long as we prove to the FAA that we are making steps to mitigate these problems as we go along.”

The airport has about 34,000 takeoffs and landings per year, Peranich said, mostly from privately owned aircraft. There are 104 aircraft based at the airport, he said.

Ninety percent of the airport improvement program is covered by a federal grant, Peranich said. Five percent is covered by the State of Illinois, and the last 5 percent is covered by the village. This amounts to a village share of about $108,000 for the taxiway

project, he said.

The last major project completed in 2014 was moving old fuel tanks that were too close to the runway, Peranich said. The project cost about $760,000, with a $38,000 local share, he said.

The next phase will be a runway overhaul and widening, Peranich said. The 3,800-foot-long runway is 50 feet wide, and needs to be a minimum of 75 feet for FAA standards, he said.

The runway also would need to be redone so it has a slope to it that allows for water runoff.

That final phase of the runway expansion is expected to cost $5 million, he said, with about $300,000 coming from the village, Peranich said.

The taxiway phase should be completed by November, he said, and the goal is to finish the entire airport improvement program by 2022.

“We want to operate this airport in the safest manner possible, and by mitigating all these challenges that face us – by getting all this infrastructure away from the runway to create a nice safety buffer zone – we’re making the airport a safer place to be, and minimizing our risk and everyone’s risk of operating here down the road,” Peranich said.

Bond reduced for Fox Lake woman shot

by McHenry County deputies in 2014

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A McHenry County judge Wednesday reduced the bond for a Fox Lake woman who was shot by deputies in 2014 after she allegedly made suicidal statements and pointed an assault rifle at them.

Kloss faces charges of aggravated assault, possession of firearms and ammunition without a valid FOID card.

The charges stem from a July 2014 incident when officers responded to the 7400 block of Boston Avenue in unincorporated Wonder Lake for the report of a suicidal subject.

Police have said Kloss pointed a gun at the deputies. The gun, which did not belong Kloss, was not loaded,

according to police. Officers fired seven rounds at Kloss, hitting her once in the neck, according to court documents.

Judge Michael Feetterer reduced Kloss’ bond Wednesday to $35,000 – nearly a month after her bond was increased by Judge Sharon Prather to $75,000.

Assistant State’s Attorney John Gibbons filed a motion in June to increase Kloss’s bond from the $10,000 set in 2014 because she had since been charged with battery, and there was a warrant for her arrest.

Police said Kloss allegedly removed a handful of an EMT’s hair by pulling it on June 10, according to court documents.

Robert Loeb, Kloss’ attorney, requested a fitness evaluation on behalf of his client because he believed she may not be physically or mentally stable to stand trial because of the brain damage sustained from the shooting.

Kloss was found fit to stand trial, according to court documents.

Kloss’ next court date is Aug. 30.

Her case is set for trial Sept. 26.

Steve Schwartz

Developer at Pearl Street Commercial LLC Sonday, who was at the City Council meeting.

Schwartz said in addition to redoing the facade of the current building and landscaping around the property, significant road improvements – costing an estimated $450,000 – also would need to be made.

Part of the plan includes working with the city and Illinois Department of Transportation to realign Davis Road to move it further west from Route 47 to allow for the creation of a four-way intersection, which would help provide access to the former Harley-Davidson property to the south, Schwartz said.

Woodstock Building and Zoning Director Joe Napolitano said Wednesday

this is the first concrete proposal the city has received for the site.

Schwartz estimated the business would bring in $15 million in gross sales per year, which would mean the city would collect 1 percent of that, or $150,000, in sales tax, Napolitano said.

While he didn’t say he opposed the project, council member Mike Turner questioned how a gas station and convenience store fit into the long-term strategy and vision for the city. “[The parcel] has been an eyesore, it has been an unproductive, non-valued piece of land for us for a long time, and the goal is to have something there for me,” Turner said.

However, he expressed concerns about having a convenience store at

the city’s main south entrance.

Mayor Brian Sager said that while he also struggled with some of the same concerns as Turner, years down the road, Woodstock will grow in all directions, so the property may not be the south entryway to the city. “… It will be an access way by virtue of two state highways intersecting there, but to me that’s exactly the type of location that you would want this particular type of business because of traffic flow,” Sager said, adding that it also would encourage development to the south.

Council members also brought up potential environmental concerns of a fuel station, which Schwartz and Napolitano responded to by saying there is appropriate technology in place to control the fuel within the tanks and protocols in place if there was ever a spill or leak.

If the development were to move forward, the property would need to be rezoned to accommodate the indoor storage use, receive a special use permit for fuel sales and acquire a final plat approval for a twolot subdivision, according to city documents.

A cardiac arrest survival story SPONSORED BY

By Diane Krieger Spivak It is February 6 around 5:30 pm.

Tom Gould is upstairs telling his 16-year-old son Brendan that he will be driving Brendan’s sister Grace to a friend’s house. In mid-conversation Tom suddenly slumps against a wall, falling to the floor in a heap. He turns purplish blue because his heart has stopped. He is clinically dead.

Brendan quickly turns his father on his back, and dials 911. First responders are on their way.

A 911 operator coaches Brendan on CPR. Brendan tells Grace to flag down the first responders. The Barrington Police Department “paddle” Tom’s chest and on the fifth try get a steady heartbeat. They shoot adrenaline into Tom’s knee with a bone-injection gun, then rush him to Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital, where hospital personnel run tests, then place the then 56-year-old in a sleep-induced coma and lower his body temperature to 90 degrees for 24 hours to protect his brain.

Tom is on his way to recovery.

The next important step in Tom’s survival is how to prevent future cardiac

arrest. Advocate’s cardiac team places an implantable cardioverter defibrillator in Tom’s chest that will regulate his heart rhythm for the rest of his life. He now takes a beta blocker to improve blood flow and lower blood pressure. He exercises regularly.

“On July 3 I celebrated my 57th birthday, thanks to my quick-thinking kids, a quick and responsive police and fire department and the great doctors and nurses at Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital,” says Tom, who returns to work Aug. 8.

“I am returning with the belief that God has His hand on me,” says Tom. “He kept me alive for reasons I am still figuring out, and me going back to work will be for the good of everyone. And I am OK with that.”

WOODSTOCK – A potential new development might come to the old Farm and Fleet property at the southwest corner of Route 14 and Route 47 in Woodstock.

The Woodstock City Council heard a presentation from the prospective developer at its meeting Tuesday for a plan that would include using the existing structure for self-storage units and building a fuel station and convenience store.

Developer Steve Schwartz of Pearl Street Commercial LLC was looking for input from the city council on his plans for the property he said has been vacant for about 15 years.

“Retail begets retails,” Schwartz said. “If this is designed right, looks right, it’s going to bring a focus on this corridor and this community thoroughfare, and so that’s going to lead to more development.”

The 90,000-square-foot metal building sits on about 7.5 acres, according to city documents, and is next to the vacant former Harley-Davidson building.

Both properties are owned by Claude

“Retail begets retails. If this is designed right, looks right, it’s going to bring a focus on this corridor and this community thoroughfare, and so that’s going to lead to more development.”

• COUNTY QUEEN

Continued from page A3 Outgoing Miss McHenry County Nora Brown of Woodstock bestowed the first Queen’s Hope Award to Miss McHenry County Fair contestant Julie Durkin of McHenry for her good works.

Durkin and future winners will have $100 donated to the St. Baldrick’s Foundation in their name by Brown.

The 2016 pageant also served as the debut for McHenry County’s new princess program.

The noncompetitive program is designed to give girls ages 5 to 9 an opportunity to be mentored by older pageant participants.

“The princesses are basically mentored by an older contestants,” said Lovena Hunter, one of the pageant’s directors. “[The contestants] learn etiquette, poise, have discussions on self-confidence and how to build healthy self-esteem,” Hunter said.

Some 18 girls participated in the pilot year of the princess program.

Like the older girls, participants have been practicing at least once a week for the past six weeks in preparation for pageant night. Practices are several hours long and include learning more about the diversity

and agricultural aspects of the county.

Also new this year were crowns for the title of Junior Miss McHenry County and Teen Miss McHenry County.

Mya Crone of Harvard wore home the first-ever crown and sash for Junior Miss McHenry County on Wednesday night.

Crone also won Most Photogenic and People’s Choice awards.

Earning the top crown Wednesday and taking the mantle from out-going Miss McHenry County was Gianisa Dougherty of Huntley.

Dougherty also won the honor of Director’s Choice – an award given by pageant organizers to those who are most supportive and enthusiastic about the pageant, the process and helping other contestants on the journey to pageant night.

Hunter and the other directors of Wednesday night’s events hope all the contestants learned skills that will help them from the pageant preparation and process.

Even before the event started, Miss McHenry County contestant Ashley O’Brien of Lake in the Hills said that mission was success.

“Everyone is going to win tonight because everyone learned something or learned something about themselves; and they are going to take a piece of this with them,” she said.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS CLEVELAND – Former Ohio Congressman Steve LaTourette has died after a battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 62.

Dino Disanto, LaTourette’s former chief of staff, says LaTourette died Wednesday night surrounded by his family at his home in McLean, Virginia.

LaTourette represented northeast Ohio’s 19th Congressional District and then the 14th Congressional District from 1995 to 2013. He was a member of the Republican Party, but was generally regarded as a moderate.

He was a supporter of infrastructure spending, Amtrak and congressional setasides known as earmarks. When he announced his retirement, LaTourette said he was sick of the partisanship that had taken over Congress.

Ohio Senator Rob Portman released a statement late Wednesday, describing the former congressman as “a proud son of Cleveland, a tough prosecutor and an effective legislator.”

HILLSIDE, N.J. – A Holocaust survivor who along with his brother founded one of the nation’s largest real estate development firms has died. Joseph Wilf was 91.

Wilf died Wednesday at home in Hillside, New Jersey. The death was announced by the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings, who are owned by Wilf’s sons, Zygi and Mark.

Joseph Wilf was born in Jaroslaw, Poland. When World War II started, he was deported to a Siberian labor camp with his brother, Harry, and their parents.

All four survived, though the couple’s daughter, Bella, died in the Warsaw ghetto.

Joseph Wilf and his wife immigrated to the U.S. in 1950. Four years later, Wilf and his brother founded Garden Homes, which is now one of the largest real estate companies in the United States and in Israel.

STATE Medical marijuana sales climb as program grows New patient ID cards will cost $300 with discounts for veterans and people qualifying for disability

By CARLA K. JOHNSON The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Illinois officials posted new forms this week for doctors and patients in the state’s medical marijuana program to reflect changes in the law, and announced Wednesday that July retail sales reached a new high at $2.9 million.

Gov. Bruce Rauner signed legislation last month extending the pilot program until July 2020 and adding two qualifying health conditions – post-traumatic stress disorder and terminal illnesses. Those changes are expected to further drive growth in the program, but won’t be reflected in retail sales until next month.

The Illinois Department of Public Health posted updated information on its website Tuesday, including a new form allowing physicians to certify a patient’s diagnosis without the added requirement of recommending mari-

An updated patient application is available, as is new information on how patients who are terminally ill can apply for a medical marijuana card without a fee.

The department also posted updated information for current patients on renewing their marijuana cards and will mail renewal information to registered cardholders 90 days before their cards expire.

New patient identification cards will be valid for three years and cost

$300; annual fees had been $100. Veterans and people qualifying for disability benefits can get a reduction in the fee to $150 for three years.

The three-year ID card allows patients to avoid yearly costs of doctor visits and fingerprints, Illinois Department of Public Health spokeswoman Divya Little said.

“It also allows IDPH to accommodate the increased volume of applications and the significant staff time required to process them,” Little said.

But the increased fee pinches the

A People’s Map spokesman said the checks weren’t cashed. The group is comprised of minority leaders who said overhauling redistricting diminishes minority representation. An attorney who has represented Democrats filed the lawsuit on their behalf.

“There needs to be alternatives for low- or fixed-income patients to be able to afford access.”

Sales of medical marijuana in Illinois have climbed steadily since purchasing began Nov. 9. In July, Illinois patients legally purchased $2.9 million worth of marijuana products, according to figures released Wednesday.

June sales had been $2.57 million.

Illinois now has nearly 8,891 qualified medical marijuana patients and 40 registered dispensaries, according to the program’s monthly update. July’s figures bring the total retail sales of marijuana in Illinois to $16.3 million since the program launched.

the firefighters found the child’s body wrapped in a blanket that was smoking.

Officials said the child was from 9 months to 2 years old when it died. Langford said it appears the toddler had been dead for some time.

Authorities didn’t release the sex of the child and the child’s identity wasn’t known.

GOP frustrations with Trump mount

By STEVE PEOPLES and JONATHAN LEMIRE The Associated Press

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Their party in crisis, Republicans’ frustration with Donald Trump reached new heights on Wednesday as party leaders on Capitol Hill and inside New York’s Trump Tower scrambled to persuade their presidential nominee to abandon divisive tactics that have triggered sinking poll numbers and low morale.

Party chairman Reince Priebus appealed to the New York billionaire’s adult children to help amid new signs of a campaign in trouble.

Trump’s operation has been beset by internal discord, including growing concern about general election preparedness and a lack of support from Republican leaders, according to two people familiar with the organization’s inner workings.

One of the people said Trump privately blames his own staff for failing to quiet the backlash from his own party after he criticized an American Muslim family whose son, a U.S. Army captain, was killed in Iraq.

The inner tension comes as Priebus and handful of high-profile Trump allies consider whether to confront the candidate directly to encourage a new approach after a series of startling stances and statements. In the midst of the uproar over his continued criticism of the Khan family, Trump infuriated Priebus and other party leaders by refusing to endorse GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan’s re-election.

The officials, including one with direct knowledge of Priebus’ thinking, were granted anonymity to discuss internal strategy after one of the most tumultuous weeks of Trump’s presidential campaign.

Trump on Wednesday dismissed suggestions that the

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton holds up a Donald Trump tie, which isn’t made in America, as she speaks Wednesday at Knotty Tie Company in Denver. The Knotty Tie Company makes and manufactures ties and scarves by hand in Denver.

GOP frustration was hurting his campaign, even as he openly contemplated an Election Day loss.

“Wouldn’t that be embarrassing to lose to crooked Hillary Clinton? That would be terrible,” he said during a campaign stop in battleground Florida. He also insisted, “We’ve never been this united.”

In an interview later Wednesday with Florida’s WPEC-TV, Trump was asked if he was being “baited into battles.”

“I think that’s probably right,” he acknowledged.

“We’re going to focus more on Hillary Clinton.”

The most powerful Republicans in Washington and New York’s Trump Tower concede things will not change unless Trump wants them to.

“The candidate is in control of his campaign,” campaign chairman Paul Manafort told Fox News Channel, highlighting his inability to control the nominee. “And I’m in control of doing the things that he wants me to do in the campaign.”

Clinton, meanwhile, kept up her assault on Trump’s business practices, holding up a Trump-branded tie as

she spoke at the Knotty Tie Company in battleground Colorado.

“I really would like him to explain why he paid Chinese workers to make Trump ties,” she told employees in Denver, “instead of deciding to make those ties right here in Colorado.”

Trump blamed the media – “so dishonest” – for growing criticism of his recent statements and his unwillingness to accept guidance from senior advisers.

Privately, however, Trump has concerns about his own team.

He was deeply upset when GOP leaders “took the other side” during his ongoing quarrel with the Khan family, one person said, and blames his campaign staff for not keeping top Republicans in line. Another person said Trump is irritated that general election planning in battleground states isn’t further along with less than 100 days until Election Day. The internal tension is complicated by Trump’s frequent travels without his senior advisers and his adult children, who wield significant influence in the campaign, the people close to the campaign said.

FBI: Transit officer charged under U.S. terror law

By MATTHEW BARAKAT The Associated Press

ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Prosecutors brought the first-ever federal terrorism charges against a law enforcement officer in the U.S., alleging Wednesday that a patrol officer with the D.C. region’s transit police bought about $250 worth of gift cards for someone he thought was working with the Islamic State group.

Nicholas Young, 36, of Fairfax, was arrested Wednesday at Metro Transit Police headquarters in Washington and charged with a single count of attempting to provide material support to a terrorist group. According to an FBI affidavit, Young bought the gift cards last month that he intended for the Islamic State to use to purchase mobile messaging apps. Young actually gave the codes for the gift cards to an undercover FBI officer, the affidavit said.

He made a brief court appearance Wednesday afternoon, wearing a T-shirt and what appeared to be his uniform slacks.

David Smith, who was appointed to represent Young after the hearing, said he could not comment because he had not yet been able to research the details of the case.

If convicted, Young could face up to 20 years in prison.

Young had been under surveillance since 2010, and he traveled to Libya at least once in 2011, where he said he joined rebel forces seeking to oust dictator Moammar Gadhafi, the affidavit said. He traveled with body armor, a Kevlar helmet and other military-style items.

Young was deeply paranoid about law enforcement spying on him, often taking out the battery of his cellphone when he wanted to go somewhere and talk, the document said. Young frequently told one undercover source to be wary of potential informants, according to the affidavit.

On Jan. 24, 2011, an undercover officer said Young told the officer he once aimed an AK-47-style rifle out of a window at his residence, scanning for law enforcement he believed was watching him. On another occasion, he grew angry that the FBI talked to his family and co-workers and said he wanted to find the FBI agent and kidnap and torture her.

The undercover officer said he “doubted that Young seriously intended to act upon those words,” according to the affidavit.

As police searched Young’s town-

home in Fairfax, neighbor Dina Ahmad described him as standoffish and said he had occasional run-ins with the homeowners’ association over his cluttered front lawn.

He often worked on his car at late hours, and the car was adorned with anti-Israel bumper stickers, she said.

“We knew something was weird about him,” Ahmad said. “You just kind of got that creepy vibe off of him.”

Joshua Stueve, spokesman for the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, said Young posed no threat to the Metro system, and nowhere in the affidavit does it mention the subway and bus system for the nation’s capital.

Metro spokesman Dan Stessel said Young, who had been employed since 2003, was fired.

“Obviously, the allegations in this case are profoundly disturbing.

They’re disturbing to me, and they’re disturbing to everyone who wears the uniform,” Metro General Manager Paul Wiedefeld said in a statement.

FBI spokesman Andrew Ames confirmed that Young is the first law enforcement officer to be charged under the federal government’s terrorism law.

Young was an associate of two other people charged with terror-related crimes. In 2010, law enforcement in-

terviewed Young because of his links to Zachary Chesser, who eventually pleaded guilty to trying to join the militant group al-Shabab and to issuing threats to the makers of the “South Park” cartoon series after they penned an episode he found insulting to Islam.

Young also met regularly with Amine El Khalifi, who pleaded guilty in a sting operation in which he planned to attempt a suicide bombing at the U.S. Capitol in 2012.

Authorities said that in their years of monitoring Young, his purchase of the gift cards was the first action that crossed the line to where he could be charged with a crime, and they moved to arrest him as soon as it occurred.

As he was under surveillance, though, Young frequently made alarming comments, according to the affidavit. During one conversation with an undercover officer, Young said if he was ever betrayed by someone, “that person’s head would be in a cinder block at the bottom of” a lake.

In March 2015, he raised suspicion when he brought a large amount of ammunition, AK-47s and a pistol to an off-duty weapons training event provided by another Metro officer. Young said he owned even more weapons, according to the affidavit.

of next year – a move Pyongyang has denounced. The council has condemned six other launches.

The Security Council has not responded to a July 9 failed attempt by a North Korean submarine to launch a ballistic missile and the July 19 launch of two short-range Scud missiles and a Rodong intermediate-range missile.

U.N. diplomats, speaking on condition of anonymity because discussions have been private, said attempts to condemn the launches have been held up

by China.

Liu told reporters that “the situation is tense and we need to do everything to de-escalate the situation.”

Asked whether China would support a council condemnation of the latest launches, he said “there’s a real risk” and the council needs to do things that promote denuclearization and peace and stability on the Korean peninsula, as well as a negotiated solution to North Korea’s nuclear program.

When asked what should be done to de-escalate the situation, Liu said that “if you look at the factors contributing to the tension in the Korean peninsula, I think the answer is self-evident.”

Japan’s Bessho responded that his country had not done anything to invite Wednesday’s missile launch and said there was no justification for it.

SAN FRANCISCO – As officials ask for the public’s help in finding the people who started an illegal campfire that grew into a massive wildfire north of Big Sur, authorities are considering what penalties the campers could face once they are found.

The blaze has charred almost 73 square miles, destroyed 57 homes and killed a 35-year-old bulldozer operator when the heavy equipment rolled over.

Monterey County Sheriff’s spokesman Cmdr. John Thornburg said those responsible could face criminal charges in the death of Robert Reagan of Fresno County. “Could that death potentially come back on (those responsible)?”

Thornburg said. “Maybe.”

Whoever started the illegal campfire also could face civil penalties for the cost related to the firefighting. More than 5,500 crews are working the fire that’s threatening 2,000 structures and was only 25 percent contained Wednesday.

“It’s one thing if you burn up a tree, it’s another thing if you burn up the forest,” Thornburg said.

Just as technology has changed the way we bank, shop, or watch movies, so too is technology shaping medical record keeping.

Now electronic exchange of medical information allows doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other health care providers to access and securely share vital medical information electronically—and, ideally, improve the speed, quality, safety, and cost of patient care.

Those who work in Health Information Technology (HIT) manage and organize medical data, ensuring accuracy and security of these records. Technicians can also track patterns of disease and treatment outcomes.

They may specialize in types of information, such as in medical coding or in maintaining cancer registrars.

“With the future of healthcare, everyone is shifting to electronic health records,” said Allison Minicz, instructor for the Health Information Technology Department at SM-CL0369535

McHenry County College. “It’s a great time for anybody getting into the HIT field.”

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics 2014-2015 Occupational Outlook Handbook, the number of health information technology jobs is expected to grow by 22% in 10 years.

MCC recently added a HIT degree that expands on its current medical billing and coding certificate.

Many students go on to work in a hospital’s health information management department, but Minicz said there are many other employers that hire health information technicians, including insurance companies, government agencies, cancer registries, software vendors, and education.

The AAS degree can be completed mostly online, Minicz said. Classes are held in the evening and blended classes meet on campus once a month.

Minicz, who has taught HIT for five years, said she has never had a student who had an issue finding a job.

“It’s health care,” Minicz said. “It’s always going to be there.”

UNITED NATIONS – U.S. Ambassador Samantha Power predicted that the Security Council will swiftly condemn North Korea’s latest ballistic missile launches after an emergency meeting Wednesday of the U.N.’s most powerful body.

Power told reporters after the closed meeting there were “strong condemnations across the board” from all 15 council members, which she found encouraging.

Her assessment was echoed by Japan’s ambassador, Koro Bessho, who said he was heartened by the “many messages of solidarity” after his appeal to the council to be united and send a strong message to the world and especially to North Korea that its actions are “totally unacceptable.”

But Ambassador Liu Jieyi of China, an ally of North Korea, stressed that the council must not do anything to escalate tensions.

No date was announced for a follow-up meeting of council members or experts, but Bessho said he hopes for council action as soon as possible.

South Korean and Japanese officials said a medium-range ballistic missile fired Wednesday flew about 620 miles

and landed near Japan’s territorial waters, one of the longest flights by a North Korean missile. It was the first time a missile landed in Japan’s exclusive economic zone, which extends 200 nautical miles from shore.

The U.S. Strategic Command said initial indications were that a second missile exploded immediately after launch.

South Korea’s U.N. Ambassador Oh Joon said so far this year North Korea has conducted 13 rounds of missile tests – including the firing of 29 missiles of different varieties, ranges and trajectories using mobile launchers and submarines.

“They are doing all of this with a systematic, comprehensive purpose of upgrading and refining their missile technologies, which is not only a grave challenge to the global nonproliferation system but also poses a clear and present danger to the security of all countries in the region,” he said.

“It is definitely in the interest of all countries to stop this dangerous series of provocations immediately,” Oh stressed.

The ballistic missile launches Wednesday were the third since the U.S. and South Korea announced plans July 8 to deploy an advanced missile defense system in South Korea by the end

Time Warner invests in Hulu in win for cable cord-cutters

By MAE ANDERSON The Associated Press

NEW YORK – In another win for cable cord-cutters, Time Warner has become the latest media company to invest in streaming service Hulu.

The move could boost the viability of an online TV service that Hulu is expected to launch next year as an alternative to cable TV. Sony and Dish already operate online TV services, while Apple has expressed interest in one, according to published reports. None of those companies, however, have the networks themselves as full partners or owners the way Hulu does.

Time Warner Inc., which owns HBO, TNT and TBS, took a 10 percent stake in Hulu for $583 million in another step blurring the lines separating cable TV from internet video services. Hulu’s other stakeholders already include the parent companies of ABC, Fox and NBC – Walt Disney Co., 21st Century Fox and Comcast’s NBCUniversal.

Time Warner said Wednesday that its networks – including TNT, TBS, CNN, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, truTV, Boomerang and Turner Classic Movies – will be available live and on-demand as part of Hulu’s upcoming online TV service.

“Consumers clearly want innovative interfaces. They want more robust on-demand capabilities and they expect a greater variety of content packages,” Time Warner CEO Jeffrey Bewkes said in a call with investors. “And we want to support services that do just that.”

The company did not mention how

HBO might fit in with either offering.

Hulu already has a deal with CBS to carry Showtime for an extra fee, while HBO has a similar arrangement with an online TV service called Sling TV. Hulu, founded in 2006, has built a name for itself by offering the ability to stream popular shows from broadcast and cable networks, typically the day after they are shown on TV. Hulu also creates its own shows, including comedies such as “Casual” and “Difficult People.”

Together with Netflix, Hulu has made it easier for people to drop cable or satellite TV services completely. Current seasons of many hit shows are available

for streaming.

Access to live sports has been difficult without cable, though. But some of Time Warner’s networks have been strong in that area, and by including those channels in a live-streaming service, Hulu makes cord-cutting even more viable.

Meanwhile, Sling TV said Wednesday they will offer NFL Network and NFL RedZone in time for the NFL season this fall, following a similar move by PlayStations Vue in July.

Nomura analyst Anthony DiClemente said signing up Time Warner turns the Hulu live offering into a more “robust” product with all four big media

conglomerates on board.

Time Warner’s deal with Hulu comes almost a month after Comcast said that it’s adding Netflix to its X1 set-top boxes, another move from a traditional media titan collaborating with a streaming media site.

There also may be more competition soon, as U.S. regulators are weighing whether to require the TV industry to allow technology companies such as Google and Apple to sell cable boxes, too. Those boxes have become a major source of revenue for cable providers, generating more than $200 a year in leasing fees in the typical U.S. household.

If cable boxes are sold by technology companies, they will likely feature more Internet applications, stepping up the pressure on incumbent providers to adapt.

New York-based Time Warner Inc. also announced Wednesday that net income for the April-July quarter fell 2 percent to $952 million, or $1.20 a share, from $971 million, or $1.16 a share a year ago. Excluding one-time items, income was $1.29, beating analyst expectations of $1.16 a share, according to FactSet. Revenue fell 5 percent to $6.95 billion, missing analyst expectations of $7.06 billion.

The company attributed the revenue decline to weakness at Warner Bros., offset by growth at Turner and HBO. It boosted full-year adjusted profit outlook to a range of $5.35 to $5.45 a share. Its prior guidance was for $5.30 to $5.40 a share. Analysts polled by FactSet expect $5.39 a share.

Its stock rose $2.05, or 2.7 percent, to close Wednesday at $77.83.

Rauner speaks Greek to Dems Remember how Hercules’ fifth task was to clean the stables of King Augeas in a single day? The home to 3,000 oxen hadn’t been cleaned in 30 years.

Some might see parallels in Springfield and Gov. Bruce Rauner. Thirty years of B.S. accumulated in the capital, and someone quickly needs to clean it out.

How? Term limits.

Madigan’s lawyer successfully has argued because the map amendment proposal adds duties to two other branches of state government – the executive branch’s auditor and the courts’ Illinois Supreme Court justices – it is unconstitutional.

So Rauner is passing out shovels and hoping he can get the oxen to help him clean up. He went around the state pushing for both term limits and an independent commission, asking state lawmakers to make those changes.

Now, those would be the same state lawmakers led for 30 years by a Chicago Democrat and who are the nation’s fifth-highest paid. Illinois lawmakers average $100,000 each when all their pay and benefits are added and hit Illinois taxpayers with a $32 million bill each year they’ve legislated that must be paid regardless of anyone else’s suffering.

They also would be the same state lawmakers who are in their second fiscal year without a state budget, have spent $7.8 billion more than we have at present and have allowed a pension deficit to pass $111 billion. Their concern about the details of the Illinois Constitution seems to vanish when it comes to the mandate they balance the state budget.

Imagine if everyone got more pay for less work, and the work they did was incompetent. Grounds for firing?

Rauner’s pushing the right ideals, but you better hope the Illinois Supreme Court decides the people should have a say in November on at least an independent commission drawing legislative maps.

Convincing the bull-headed their time at the trough should be limited will happen about the same time pigs fly.

Congress leaves Zika threat unaddressed While Trib Q&As with candidates running for high office last winter revealed little inclination toward compromise on the always hot issue of abortion, Republicans touting pro-life agendas might attract more of a following if their actions mirrored their talk. Excellent case in point: Failure by Republican leadership in Congress to approve funding to fight the mosquito-borne Zika virus before taking the rest of the summer off.

Do these people realize when mosquitoes are most active? Do they care?

So much for bold vows by Republican lawmakers that they had the maturity and resolve to demonstrate leadership when they assumed control of both houses of Congress in January 2015. Examples abound where they’ve failed miserably, but this latest example should embarrass anyone who claims the Republican Party is a pro-life party.

Reports indicate a baby was born with microcephaly in Harris County last month, the first Zika-infected infant in Texas.

And while the mother apparently was bitten in South America, yet other reports in Florida indicate more than a dozen people have been bitten by homegrown mosquitoes also carrying the feared Zika virus.

Medical experts say different folks react different ways to the virus, with some showing few if any symptoms. The real danger is to pregnant women who, once bitten, can give birth to deformed, brain-damaged babies.

For any pro-life lawmaker, this should be a call to arms in terms of commitment to public welfare above all else.

So how did the Republican-led Congress handle it? Somewhere in the sausage-making process of forging legislation to fund not only state efforts to battle the

mosquitoes but also to fund a vaccine, Democrats and Republicans got into a battle over things such as whether to restrict display of the Confederate battle flag in federal cemeteries. This is an example of why more and more people distrust Congress: a bipartisan bill crafted in the spirit of compromise and clearly benefiting all Americans is undone by controversial riders that promptly render an entire bill unacceptable.

Surely mature party leaders on both sides could have agreed to stand-alone bills regarding controversial matters unrelated to the Zika virus – especially given the high risk to the unborn.

The irony of this from a cynically political perspective: Those most likely to suffer from the Zika virus live throughout the South – the very heart of the Republican Party’s constituency.

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.

Keep the Spirit of ’45 alive

To the Editor: The Combined Veterans of McHenry once again invite the public to celebrate Keep the Spirit of ’45 Alive Day at 5 p.m. Aug. 14 at Veterans Memorial Park in McHenry. For the past six years, this event has been the largest of its kind in the U.S. It features a short program recognizing World War II veterans in attendance followed by live music and dancing with Bill’s Little Big Band, along with the radio voice of Lou Rugani from WLIP Radio. Pat Wirtz will have WWII memorabilia from the McHenry County Historical Society on display along with Eric Miller and his Pearl Harbor display. The program will conclude with the sounding of rolling taps by no less than 18 buglers, which surely will bring a tear to your eye.

Our Greatest Generation is slowly getting smaller, and what better way as veterans and citizens of our country to help celebrate.

Last but not least, I would like to thank our outgoing Master of Ceremonies Ron

Bykowski, who started this great event. I have had the privilege of working with Ron since the beginning, and his enthusiasm has been rubbing off on many of us in the veteran community.

Seating will be reserved for WWII veterans and their families, so please remember to bring lawn chairs. Hope to see you all there to once again make this the largest Keep the Spirit of ’45 Alive event again in America.

Learn rules for cyclists, drivers

To the Editor: Regarding Steve Liston’s July 25 letter, “Cyclists need to learn rules of the road.”

It’s apparent Mr. Liston also needs to learn the rules of the road – per the Illinois State Police: 625 ILCS 5/11-1505.1 Riding bicycles upon roadway Sec. 11-1505.1. Persons riding bicycles upon a roadway shall not ride more than 2

country’s ability to defend itself against the threat of terrorism. According to the secretary of defense, Robinson was selected for the position because she was the most competitive for the job out of all of the general officers considered, regardless of gender.

Then there are the women graduating from training courses and schools once considered too difficult for them.

There are the three female Rangers who graduated from the toughest leadership school in the Army. Not only did the women who earned the Ranger tab fully compete with their male counterparts throughout the course, but their actions and willingness to help their male counterparts during the most physically arduous training events also earned the respect of their peers. These women are warriors in every sense of the word, and their physical and mental capabilities clearly demonstrate military women are capable of competing with men when they are trained and challenged by good leaders with high standards and high expectations.

And don’t forget the 135 women who successfully graduated from the Marine Corps enlisted infantry training course in 2015, or Marine Corps 2nd Lts. Virginia Brodie and Katherine Boy, who recently graduated from the Basic Officer Leader Artillery Course.

Both officers graduated at the top of their class of 137 students, and both cited having leaders who supported their early aspirations to become artillery officers as the key to their success.

Unfortunately, once they leave the service, many female veterans report their service is not valued or respected by the public. If they show their identification cards or wear clothing with military logos, people assume that they simply are spouses or girlfriends of servicemen. These women indeed are wives, daughters, mothers and sisters.

But they also are military leaders, warriors, academics and mentors in their own right.

As the military has evolved to develop an appreciation for the potential of women to serve in the most challenging of positions, it also is time for the American public to see these women for what they bring to the fight: brains, strength and courage. They are not victims and they are not to be sheltered from the grim realities of war because of the myth of female frailty. Their service matters.

After decades of gradual progress, 2016 may be remembered as the year when everything changed for women in the military. Everywhere you look, women who serve are breaking new ground, overcoming gender barriers and taking on roles that are integral to our nation’s defense.

Yet a recent story from the current presidential contest serves as a reminder that not long ago, women faced opposition not just to being in combat, but to being in uniform at all.

In an op-ed written in 1999 by Mike Pence, Indiana’s current governor, and unearthed recently by BuzzFeed, the future Republican vice-presidential candidate comes down firmly against the idea of women serving in the military. Pence attacks the popular Disney movie “Mulan” because the warrior princess falls in love with her commander, concluding from that plot point all women in the military pose a potential threat to good order and discipline.

It is unclear how Pence’s views have changed since then, as he has not addressed the issue in any public forum since the op-ed was published.

Regardless, so much has changed

since Pence wrote that piece. Since 1999, military women have been defying cultural norms and changing perceptions about their capabilities through their actions and their deeds.

And they are letting their service speak for itself in even greater numbers, with more than 200,000 women serving on active duty.

Pence’s op-ed reminds us of how radical it once was to think women could fight alongside men. Indeed, in 1999, the idea that women would ever be fully capable of competing with men for ground combat jobs would have been considered nothing short of ridiculous.

Back then, it would have been unthinkable that women would be in charge of the academics and the leadership of the Army cadets at West Point.

Yet in 2016, Brig. Gens. Diana Holland and Cindy Jebb assumed these very posts, proving women have the leadership and intellectual prowess required for the most challenging positions in the military.

Two decades ago, it also would have been considered crazy to suggest a woman could ever serve as a combatant commander. Yet in May 2016, Air Force Gen. Lori Robinson took charge as the leader of U.S. Northern Command.

Indeed, Robinson’s leadership and strategic vision will be essential to the

Dietary guidelines need tweaking Dear Dr. K: I’m at an increased risk for heart attack and stroke. Will the new dietary guidelines help keep my heart healthy?

Dear Reader: In late 2015, the U.S. government issued a new edition of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. This report helps Americans make healthy food choices. But if you’re concerned about having a heart attack or stroke, the advice in the latest update doesn’t entirely agree with what many nutrition experts – as well as the American Heart Association – recommend.

I spoke with my colleague Dr. Walter Willett, professor of epidemiology and nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. He shared his thoughts about where the new guidelines might not be aggressive enough for people at risk for heart disease. Here’s our advice on four dietary components: • Red meat. The guidelines say: A healthy eating pattern includes a variety of protein foods, including seafood, lean meats and poultry, eggs, legumes (beans and peas), nuts, seeds and soy products.

We say: Grouping lean red meat with other types of protein is wrong. The health implications from these foods are very different. Many people assume the saturated fat in beef, lamb and pork is the main problem. That’s certainly one problem. But lean red meat also contains cholesterol, heme iron and other components that likely contribute to heart disease risk. If you like red meat, enjoy it only occasionally as a special treat.

• Sugar. The guidelines say: Consume less than 10 percent of calories a day from added sugars.

We say: The new guidelines are based on research showing people who eat less sugar

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff tend to have lower rates of heart disease.

But the upper limit suggested by the AHA – about 5 percent of calories – is better than the 10 percent recommended by the guidelines. That translates to about 6 teaspoons of sugar a day for women and 9 teaspoons a day for men.

• Salt. The guidelines say: Consume less than 2,300 milligrams a day of sodium.

We say: Excess sodium is closely tied to high blood pressure – a major risk factor for heart disease. You’re better off aiming for the 1,500 mg of sodium a day recommended by the AHA. • Cholesterol (and eggs). The guidelines say: No specific limit on cholesterol. (Earlier guidelines recommended a limit of 300 mg a day.)

We say: For your heart’s sake, limit eggs to no more than three a week – especially if you have diabetes.

Remember, this advice applies to people at increased risk for a heart attack or a stroke – not to everyone. The factors that increase a person’s risk include age, gender, close relatives with heart disease or stroke, high blood pressure, high total cholesterol or LDL (“bad”) cholesterol, diabetes or prediabetes, or metabolic syndrome. You can calculate your risk of heart disease and stroke over the next 10 years online at: www.reynoldsriskscore.org.

DEAR ABBY visit my grandmother out of Jeanne state once a year.

Phillips After our visits, I usually leave feeling defeated. A few reasons why: She leaves multiple notes around “reminding” us to clean up after ourselves. There’s a note in the shower that says, “Please wipe down shower walls after use.” She asks me to change the sheets or launder our towels before I leave. Although she has decorative paper hand towels in the bathrooms, she asks us not to use them because they are “too expensive.”

She complains about my son’s handprints on her windows (he’s 2). She badmouths nearly everyone she knows, has unsolicited advice on everything and generally is highly judgmental.

When we return home, she gushes about our visit for months, saying how “lonely” she is now we’re gone and how much she enjoyed our visit. I don’t understand. Is this normal grandmother behavior, or does she take it too far?

Must we continue spending big bucks to go out there every year, or can we just send pictures and call often? – Granddaughter In A Quandary Dear Granddaughter: It’s not unheard of for a hostess to leave a note asking that the shower be wiped down, or the sheets and towels be laundered before a guest leaves – particularly if the guests are family members. A gracious guest wouldn’t mind doing those things.

Rather than stew when she complained about your 2-year-old’s handprints on her windows, the appropriate response would have been: “You know, you’re right. I’ll get the Windex.” And when she made a negative comment about someone, you should have found something nice to say about the person in response.

If these visits cause financial hardship, visit your grandmother every other year or consider inviting her to visit you, but don’t cut her off completely. After all, she’s family, and not all family members are “perfect.”

Dear Abby: I’m a newly retired woman living alone. Today I received a phone call on my landline asking me to participate in a survey.

The first question asked was how many people are in my household.

In the past, I didn’t live alone and I didn’t mind participating in surveys. But calling on my landline makes me worry the person has access to my physical address. And being asked by some stranger for information such as my age, the number of people in my household, whether I have guns in the house, etc. makes me feel very vulnerable.

I told the caller I was not interested in participating and wouldn’t give a reason why. There has got to be a better way to conduct surveys.

Please let researchers know. – Cautious Senior Dear Cautious: I’m doing that. But while I’m doing it, I also am advising readers they are under no obligation to respond to surveys of any type, and all they have to do if they receive this kind of call is say, “Not interested,” and hang up.

What to watch MLB: White Sox at Detroit, noon, CSN The teams finish their three-game series Wednesday afternoon with Jordan Zimmerman (9-4, 3.95) facing Jose Quintana (8-8, 2.89).

Whether it was humility or just a freshman knowing his place, Jacob Ommen underestimated his abilities two years ago.

Back then, Ommen was hoping for a promotion to the sophomore team.

He figured that would be an appropriate start to his high school football career at Prairie Ridge.

Wolves coach Chris Schremp and his staff did not take long to realize Ommen was better than that. The linebacker stood out in practices, along with some of his classmates.

They saw how Ommen worked, marveled at his instinctive nature and noticed he had the speed to compete on the varsity level.

“Besides him weighing 160 or 165 pounds and looking a little bit like a freshman, you wouldn’t have known in his play and his football IQ,” Wolves defensive coordinator Andy Petersen said. “The thing that stood out more than anything else is his relentless ability to get to the football.

He is quick to the football, he does a tremendous job reading and picking up schemes.”

So Ommen joined split end Samson Evans, offensive lineman Jeff Jenkins, fellow linebacker Joe Perhats and, eventually, running back Zach Gulbransen on the varsity, and has started with Perhats for two seasons.

Now, as juniors, Ommen and Perhats will be leaders for a defense that graduated nine starters. Ommen (6-foot, 195 pounds) embraces that role for a team coming off an 11-2 season in which it reached the Class 6A playoff semifinals.

“I think we’re just as good, if not better,” said Ommen, who will line up at middle linebacker. “All our second-team guys put in a lot of work and you can tell they actually paid attention (last season). They weren’t just watching practice, they were involved.”

Ommen is not only one of the fastest Wolves, but Evans, now their option quarterback, said Ommen is pound for pound the strongest player

Prairie Ridge linebacker Jacob Ommen upends Crystal Lake Central ball carrier Vinson May last season at Crystal Lake Central in Crystal Lake. Ommen, a junior this season, embraces that role for a team coming off an 11-2 season in which it reached the Class 6A playoff semifinals.

“I think we’re just as good, if not better. All our second-team guys put in a lot of work and you can tell they actually paid attention (last season).

They weren’t just watching practice, they were involved.”

Jacob Ommen

Prairie Ridge junior middle linebacker on the team. Ommen’s maximum lifts are 450 pounds for deadlift, 415 for squat, 300 for bench press and 270 for clean.

On top of that, Ommen cranked out a 5:35 in the 1,600 meters two weeks before training camp will start Monday.

“Even though he’s a junior, he’s been around for two years,” Schremp said. “He’s ready to show he can not only lead by example, but be more of a vocal leader and really lead our defense. He’s athletic enough to not just be that plugger in the middle, but to make a lot of plays and help us force turnovers.”

Ommen is relieved he does not have to battle Evans on the other side in games, as he does in practice. That feeling goes both ways.

“He’s very good at reading plays, he’s super strong,” Evans said. “If guys aren’t doing things right, he’ll tell them what to do. He just helps his teammates a lot.”

Scott and Kristina Ommen started Jacob lifting weights in sixth grade.

Kristina, who teaches classes at Centegra Health Bridge Fitness Centers, also helps with her son’s diet. Petersen admired how Ommen ate six meals a day, meticulously tracking calories with an application on his cellphone.

“His discipline has helped him develop,” Petersen said. “As a freshman, he was a pretty skinny kid. You look at him now, he’s a big, strong kid.”

Schremp and Petersen said Ommen has the tools to reach his goal of playing NCAA Division I football. Ommen attended several camps over the summer, usually with Evans or Jenkins, hoping to gain exposure.

Ommen needs more size, although Petersen likens him to former Prairie Ridge linebacker Sean Folliard, who will finish his career at Northern Illinois University this fall.

“We look at Sean Folliard, he wasn’t too different. Sean might have been a little bigger as a senior than Jacob is right now,” Petersen said. “They both have relentless work ethics.”

Bears defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard runs a drill during practice Sunday at Olivet Nazarene University in Bourbonnais.

Bullard knows he can be asset

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com BOURBONNAIS – Jonathan Bullard walked into the defensive line room to see 300-pounders Ego Ferguson, Eddie Goldman and Akiem Hicks.

Will Sutton (297 pounds) and Mitch Unrein (299) aren’t too far behind.

The Bears didn’t ask him to put on any weight. They drafted him for his quickness, not to swallow up blockers.

“When I got here and I walked in the room, everybody is so much bigger than me,” he said after Wednesday’s practice. “I’m like 282 (pounds), everybody else is 310 to 330, [I thought] they’re about to tell me I’ve got to get big.”

Bullard breathed a sigh of relief when he found out he didn’t need to add weight, and is using training camp to learn from those big veterans, such as Hicks.

“Just how big he is and how physical and how dominant and determined in his head to be. He feels like nobody can stop him no matter what,” Bullard said of Hicks. “Double-team, triple-team, 1-on-1, he should never lose.

That’s a good trait to have.”

The former Florida Gator came to the Bears in the third round because of his reaction to the snap – his rare get-off that allows him to get into the backfield.

“I definitely think I can bring it to this level. Won a few times off it, been

in the backfield a few times off of it since I’ve been here,” he said. “That’s just something that’s in me, that’s something that I pick up pretty easily.

I’m a good learner. I just go throughout the days and practice it. It’s something you’ve got to know when to do, you can’t do it all the time.”

Bullard acknowledges he has the inherent trait of a quick twitch, and the next step is learning when to use it.

That’s part of the mental game – picking up how he can use that skill to take advantage of opposing offensive linemen who will be bigger and more athletic than the ones he faced in college.

The learning curve for Bullard is more mental than physical, and those play hand in hand, as he explains.

“I think you move slower because you don’t 100 percent know what you’re doing. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a speed difference, but it’s more of you’ve got to learn what you’re doing,” he said. “… When you know what you’re doing, you move faster, so I think it’s just more of getting confident and knowing what you’re doing and then moving.”

Bullard doesn’t have to get as big as Goldman and Hicks, as he is expected to complement their strength and power with his quickness.

“I’m going to be the guy that hopefully coach Vic (Fangio) moves a lot, shoot the gaps, take a few chances and play within the defense and make plays,” he said.

BOURBONNAIS – Danny Trevathan’s presence in the middle of the Bears’ defense will have its benefits, but his talent level might have caused offensive guard Kyle Long to miss some practice time.

“Trying to chase Danny Trevathan for like the dozenth time at a practice,” Long said of the calf injury he suffered July 28.

“Just a combination of first-day stuff, everybody’s fired up, your body’s fired up and you know you’re out there working hard, and I have to be more careful warming up and getting myself ready,” Long added. “I have to be ready as a professional.”

Long returned to practice Wednesday after the team’s off day and was limited. The three-time Pro Bowler has been able to get a different vantage point of watching rookie Cody Whitehair work at left guard.

“He’s smart. He’s making progress every day,” Long said. “And he’s somebody who wants to know how to do it. And you see him working hard. And that’s half the battle.”

Jeffery dinged up: R e c e i v e r Alshon Jeffery didn’t finish practice Wednesday because of muscle tightness, coach John Fox said.

“It just got tight and we’re going to be cautious with that type of stuff, especially in the hot weather,” Fox said.

Cutler said Jeffery has “done great” in camp practices after missing the OTAs in the spring.

“I think the conditioning kind of caught up with [Jeffery] a little bit today. The off day usually throws guys off a little bit,” he said. “But he started off fast today.”

QB and OC think alike: New offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains joked that he and Cutler are “probably a little more similar than maybe I’d like to be. But I do appreciate his work ethic, his professionalism and I love the way the guy competes.”

Cutler has seen Loggains evolve into his play-caller role.

“I think he’s getting more comfortable with his role and what the team has and kind of how to use it,” he said.

BOURBONNAIS – Practice and training camp fights have been happening for as long as men and boys have been playing tackle football.

When there are fans in attendance, the scuffles definitely energize the crowd, and when one breaks out, it never fails to send the media scurrying to identify the combatants and parse the significance.

At their core, these camp kerfuffles are occasionally helpful, almost always dumb and always dangerous.

But according to a number of folks who actually played the game and even ended up in a couple of training camp battles of their own, they are necessary.

The reason any of this is a topic of discussion in this space right now is, six practices (four of them in pads) into the Bears’ training camp, this team already has had as many skirmishes as many have in an entire camp, and at Wednesday’s practice it appeared things might be starting to get out of hand, but coach John Fox begged to differ.

“I don’t know if it’s good or bad,” Fox said, “it’s just part of it.

“Guys lost it a little bit. I think it’ll tone down as we go. It’s like establishing your spot. It’s part of what, these boys will be boys.”

If that is all it is, Fox needs to rein it in and put a stop to it, because in Wednesday’s main event (there were several skirmishes) players were leaping over each other jumping into the fray and the risk of an injury was real. Boys were being dumb.

Lose a significant player for meaningful time and we’ll see how “boys will be boys” it is.

But when things got out of hand Wednesday, I happened to be watching with Tom Waddle, Tom Thayer, Jim Thornton and John Jurkovic, and they all told me it’s easy to say, “don’t do it,” but also not something players can always avoid.

If you’re fighting for your job and your livelihood, one that requires physical battles, if you don’t prove

4 WHITE SOX

‘Cupboard is bare’ for development

Tilson’s season over – outfielder will have surgery

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

DETROIT – The only good thing about falling out of contention in the final two months of a season should be the opportunity for prospects to get playing time, develop at the major league level and be evaluated.

For the snake-bitten White Sox, they can’t even make that happen.

Two days after making his major league debut Tuesday, outfielder Charlie Tilson – acquired in the only Sox trade before Monday’s nonwaiver deadline – will have season-ending surgery to repair a torn left hamstring.

Tilson joins third baseman Matt Davidson, catcher Kevan Smith and outfielder Jason Coats as prospects who didn’t finish their debuts because of injuries, or in Smith’s case, never got

on the field because of a pregame back lock-up.

What are the odds?

“It’s crazy, it’s unfortunate,” manager Robin Ventura said Wednesday of Tilson, who was rated as the Sox’s fifthbest prospect by MLB. com after the Cardinals dealt him for veteran left-hander Zach Duke.

“I can’t even imagine. For these kids, this is a dream. He gets called up, gets a hit in Charlie Tilson his first at-bat and after that it all gets taken away from you for a while. It’s tough.”

With a good showing in August and September, Tilson, who probably rated a slight edge above Triple-A center field prospect Jacob May, could have gone into spring training as the one to beat in center. Now the Sox won’t have anything to go on aside from Tilson’s minor league scouting reports.

Same for Davidson, an Arizona Diamondbacks first-round pick who had taken a step forward at Triple-A Charlotte after struggling for two seasons.

“More importantly for them, for their future,” Ventura said. “They

would have an opportunity to play and impress or get an opportunity that a lot of people don’t get. There are a lot of guys that play this game that don’t get an opportunity, that aren’t afforded it, and I think that’s where you really feel for the kids.”

It’s not as if the Sox have a stockpile of kids to look at. They have been stuck in the middle of the baseball pack since their most recent playoff appearance in 2008, and the reasons run deep but start with a system that has graded poorly for drafting and developing talent, especially position players. To patch up roster deficiences, they’ve traded away good prospects such as Marcus Semien (for Jeff Samardzija) and Trayce Thompson (for Todd Frazier).

“They have nothing,” one major league scout said. “The cupboard is bare.”

To compensate on the fly, general manager Rick Hahn has tried to patch up the dearth of young talent with trades such as Jake Peavy for Avisail Garcia, Hector Santiago for Adam Eaton, Addison Reed for Davidson and Duke for Tilson. So far, only the Eaton trade can be called a win.

Meanwhile, the Sox’s past two firstround picks, pitchers Carlos Rodon and Carson Fulmer, still are finding their way in their second and first seasons, respectively. Both have premium stuff but are fighting command issues, Rodon (2-8, 4.67 ERA) after an excellent second half as a rookie last year and Fulmer (0-1, 12.79 ERA) as well, albeit only over six appearances.

The Sox’s current state has many fans as well as some in the Sox organization pushing for a bold rebuild that could involve trading lefty All-Star Chris Sale, who started against the Tigers on Wednesday, or All-Star lefty Jose Quintana, who starts Thursday.

Or both.

That didn’t happen at the deadline as many hard-core fans were hoping but it could during the offseason, that is, if chairmain Jerry Reinsdorf is prepared to do it. Sources said Reinsdorf, who always leans toward trying to put a winner on the field now with the resources available, isn’t totally convinced that’s the way to go.

Perhaps watching the current product on the field these last two months, upcoming prospects included, will make things clearer, one way or another.

Margin of error slim for Sale in loss to Tigers

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

DETROIT – No margin for error.

Backed by an offense ranking 11th or lower in the American League in every significant category, and matched up against hotshot rookie right-hander Michael Fulmer (2.42 ERA), Chris Sale had very little wiggle room as he cruised along against the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday night.

One mistake, a first-pitch 93-mph fastball to pinch-hitter J.D. Martinez – his first pitch seen since coming off the disabled list – ended up on the other side of the center-field wall and made the difference in a 2-1 loss for the White Sox. Sale pitched his fourth complete game, and with 10 strikeouts recorded double digits for the 32nd time in his career. He walked one and allowed six hits – including a hard-hit double to Miguel Cabrera (who struck out the other three times) and a softly hit double to Nick Castellanos in the fourth.

Martinez homered leading off the eighth, after the Sox shot themselves in

the foot hitting into three double plays TIGERS 2, WHITE SOX 1 – one when Adam Eaton strayed too Chicago Detroit far off second on an over-the-shoulder ab r h bi ab r h bi catch by second baseman Ian Kinsler.

they have, you have to be on point, and he was tonight. We just couldn’t score any runs.”

Sale fell to 14-5 with a 3.12 ERA. He hasn’t won since July 2 despite allowing four runs in his past three starts.

“Can’t cash it in now,” Sale said.

“It’s going to stink a whole lot more if you do that. Come in tomorrow and try to start a new streak to get us going when we get back home.”

More time for Garcia: J.B. Shuck was called back up to replace injured center fielder Charlie Tilson, but Avisail Garcia will benefit with increased playing time. Garcia, who hit home runs of 426 feet and 459 feet in an 11-5 loss Tuesday, has been elevating the ball of late and these last two months could be his last chance to prove he’s worth keeping going forward. He was 0 for 2, reaching on a hit-by pitch and walk, Wednesday.

“This last week is probably the best we’ve seen him since we got him,” manager Robin Ventura said. “He’s starting to figure out some things as far as elevating the ball and swinging the bat.”

season as this 7-1 surge did.

“It’s August, and we know that we only have pretty much a sprint left instead of the marathon to get to the playoffs,” said Rizzo, whose club finished July by coming back from a 6-0 deficit Sunday to score three in the ninth to tie the score – that run scoring on a wild pitch – then win in the 12th on a walk-off bunt by pinch-hitting pitcher Jon Lester.

“Those kind of crazy games can roll over into some positive energy,” said Lackey, who allowed three runs in seven innings Wednesday – just one run until former teammate Jeff Mathis’ two-run, go-ahead homer in the seventh.

Miguel Montero, who has shown recent signs of stirring from his struggles this season, opened the ninth with a double, followed by a Javy Baez single and walk by pinch-hitter Matt Szczur to load the bases.

Dexter Fowler made it a one-run game with a sacrifice fly – both runners moving up as right fielder Giancarlo Stanton dropped the ball after the catch. After Kris Bryant was called out on a 3-2 pitch that looked suspicious-

ly like a ball, Rizzo was intentionally walked to set the stage for Zobrist’s walk and Ramos’ wild outside pitch to rookie Willson Contreras.

“All good teams have to believe that when they’re down late in the game they can come back and win games,” said Zobrist, whose ill-advised sacrifice bunt with two on and nobody out in the eighth (trailing 4-2) wound up lost in the celebration of the ninth-inning finish. “And this series was huge for us to be able to believe that for ourselves and see it play out a little bit. “ Especially when the Cubs failed to add on to the run they scored in the eighth after Zobrist’s bunt on a 3-2 pitch, which he said he felt more comfortable doing than taking his chances on hitting a Fernando Rodney change-up he had trouble seeing. Contreras struck out, and Jason Heyward grounded out to end that threat.

Not that it mattered by the time the Cubs boarded their charter Wednesday night for this weekend’s series in Oakland – with nobody in apparent need of a haircut.

“I came here for jewelry,” Lackey said.

CHICAGO – With history knocking this week at Wrigley Field, fans settled for the Cubs answering with a series victory over the Miami Marlins and their hit-mongering outfielder Ichiro Suzuki.

Suzuki, who arrived in Chicago with 2,998 career big league hits, left town stuck on the same number after going 0 for 3 with a pinch-hit at-bat in each game of the series.

Wednesday, he came off the bench in the seventh against John Lackey and looped a soft pop just past the infield grass, where shortstop Javy Baez made a diving catch after initially misjudging it.

Suzuki also lost a potential hit Monday when he slapped a line drive that looked headed to left field until third baseman Kris Bryant caught it and turned it into a double play.

Whether it’s the last time the Cubs will face Suzuki in his career, he has left an impression with at least a few of them.

Lackey, for example, has given up more hits (37) to Ichiro than any other

pitcher in his career.

Jason Hammel, who grew up in the Seattle area (and missed facing Suzuki by an inning Tuesday), calls him “one of my heroes growing up from the old Mariners days.

“He was all the rage when he came over. It was Ichiro-mania,” Hammel said. “We didn’t really know what to expect.

We just knew that he was really good over in Japan. It was eye opening to see the talent that he had.

“He really was a culIchiro Suzuki tural icon in Seattle,” added Hammel, who has given up 10 hits in 32 at-bats to Suzuki (.313). “It’s been exciting to follow his success, and also be part of his success. I’m on his wall.”

Hammel to bereavement list; Grimm returns: After earning his career-high

11th victory Tuesday with six scoreless innings, Hammel left Chicago to return home because of an illness in the family.

He was placed on MLB’s bereavement list, allowing a period of three to seven days away from the team.

He’s expected to return in time to

make his next scheduled start, Wednesday against the Angels.

Taking Hammel’s place on the roster is reliever Justin Grimm, who was recalled from Triple-A Iowa three days after being optioned to the minors.

The move gave the Cubs a nine-man bullpen.

‘Game-changer’ with a glove: Baez started at shortstop to give Addison Russell a day off. It was Baez’s third start at a different position in as many days – having made highlight-reel plays Monday at second (on a tag and relay throw) and Tuesday at third (on a charging, bare-handed play on a slow roller).

“It’s unusual. Not many groups have that particular weapon,” manager Joe Maddon said. “He’s a game-changer on defense.”

Baez, who struck out swinging in the fifth and seventh, also singled during the Cubs’ ninth-inning rally Wednesday.

“There’s times for maybe a week or 10 days where he’ll shorten up and really utilize the entire field. Otherwise, he’s pretty much John Daly,” Maddon said, comparing him to the big-swinging golfer. “He’s making some really wonderful strides.”

CHICAGO – Anybody looking for a Cub to offer deep thoughts on his team’s season before the “big boy games” start in the fall probably should talk to somebody besides John Lackey.

The greater meaning of the Cubs’ strong start to the second half? The fair expectations for this team after a 7-1 homestand, with 55 games left on the schedule?

“Fair expectations?” Lackey asked incredulously. “We’re trying to win a World Series. I didn’t come here for a haircut.”

Lackey’s personal grooming schedule notwithstanding, the Cubs’ second-half resurgence is starting to take on a look of that 25-6 start to the season – if not the 45-18 finish to last season.

When an unlikely ninth-inning comeback Wednesday ended on a wild pitch that sent home the winning run in a 5-4 victory over the Miami Marlins, the Cubs had their second walk-off win in four days, a series sweep of a potential playoff opponent and a 9–game lead in the Central Division.

It was just the third walk-off win of the season for the Cubs, who improved to 15-16 in one-run games with their third during this four-game winning streak.

“It’s a good way to finish the homestand,” John Lackey said first baseman Anthony Rizzo, who was intentionally walked in the ninth to load the bases just ahead of Ben Zobrist’s game-tying walk with two out against Marlins closer A.J. Ramos. “We haven’t really done this much all year. We did it a lot last year, but not this year.

“I hope this is a sign of things to come.”

If it is, it could look a lot like what came during last year’s big finish, which started at the same point in the

Help ASA support the interests of fishermen I’d like to ask you for a favor. And, don’t worry, it’s not going to cost you anything besides a couple of minutes of your time.

Go to the website keepamericafishing.org, the public part of the American Sportfishing Association, and click “Join us.” They ask you a couple of questions, such as name and address, and that is all.

Let me explain why. The ASA is a group that represents the interests of the entire fishing industry: manufacturers, retailers and professionals.

Keep America Fishing represents the interests of the fishermen.

“Lobbyist” is a word that carries evil connotations in today’s society. It makes you think of shady back-door deals and political bribes for fat-cat corporations to buy influence in Washington and Springfield. In some cases, that might be correct. But in many cases, lobbyists are important because they protect the rights of the little guy on a much larger level than the little guy can do for himself.

The ASA and Keep America Fishing explains, “Recreational fishermen are the champions of our waterways.

With 46 million anglers in the U.S., we put over $48 billion into the economy and employ over 800,000 Americans.

When we speak out as a united community, we ensure that conservation and fisheries management are a top priority in the halls of Congress and beyond.

“Keep America Fishing is your tool for keeping track of the issues ahead of us and the pathway for taking action. Help influence policy both in your home state and across the country. It’s time we stand together.”

So, what do fishermen need representation for, anyway? Well, believe it or not, our rights to fish are being constantly challenged and threatened.

You might not see it much on a local level, but in the big picture of things, it goes on all of the time. There are governmental bodies that are always trying to restrict the practice of fishing in various areas.

Unfortunately, these bodies usually don’t differentiate between sport fishing and commercial fishing. Commercial harvest can sometimes wipe out a specific species of fish in an area while

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley sport fishing usually won’t put a dent into the numbers.

Someone has to be vigilant that the rules are properly written and imposed.

Keep America Fishing works tirelessly to protect our rights and also to protect the waterways. Currently, it is battling to attempt to stop an initiative that would allow the operation of a mine that would have an extremely negative effect on the pristine Boundary Waters area between Minnesota and Ontario.

If it wasn’t for the work of a group such as this, the mine would be up and running before anyone even recognized what was happening. The beauty of the Boundary Waters would be destroyed without anybody puting up a fight.

So go to keepamericafishing.org and read about some of the issues facing the fishing world. A lot of the things the organization is battling seem to make little to no sense. I am talking about things such as restricting angling from Biscayne National Park, the eradication of bass in California waters because they are an “invasive species,” and lowered red snapper limits in the Gulf of Mexico.

Keep America Fishing also is heavily involved in things such as the battle against Asian carp headed toward our Great Lakes from the Mississippi River, the battle against the use of ethanol that can have a devastating effect on boat engines and also fighting environmental groups that are attempting to ban the use of lead in the manufacturing of fishing tackle.

All of this is “hot button” stuff that can have a significant affect in the way we fish, and it is important we get behind this initiative.

I was on the Mayor Daley Lakefront Fishing Advisory Committee in Chicago for a few years. It was amazing to see the issues that threatened fishermen come onto our docket on a constant basis.

There were groups that didn’t want

There were groups that wanted to eliminate parking lots for fishermen.

It was always one threat after another.

And that was just about Chicago.

Keep America Fishing is a very important group, and I am thankful it is there to represent us.

FISHING REPORT Northern Illinois: Dave Kranz from

Dave’s Bait, Tackle and Taxidermy in Crystal Lake reports: “The lazy days of summer have been more like windy days, rainy days or high pressure and bright blue skies days. Weather patterns can change the fishing quickly.

The dams at McHenry, Algonquin and Carpentersville are no exception.

Late-summer and early fall fishing can be very good on the river. Use stink or cut bait for catfishing, jig and minnows for walleye, white bass and smallmouth bass and for panfish I like an ice jig and a wax or red worm on a slip float.

“Gravel pit lakes such as Lake Atwood in the McHenry County Conservation Area, The Hollows and Three Oaks Recreation Area in Crystal Lake will develop a thermocline where the water containing oxygen often times will be much shallower than most think. Don’t be afraid to fish in 2 to 8 feet of water this time of year. You might be surprised with the results.

Both Three Oaks and The Hollows do not allow minnows to be used for bait and both areas require you to practice catch and release fishing.”

Call 815-455-2040 for an update on any of these reported areas.”

Geneva and Delavan: Geneva has a good night bite going for a number of species. Use a guide, but if you want to go it alone, make sure you check the rules and regulations to make sure you are legally outfitted to operate a watercraft after dark and also remember to practice extreme safety. Geneva walleyes are active on crawler rigs after dark, but bass, both largemouth and smallmouth, will eat at night, too.

Delavan bass are taking plastics, and

to meet their measurables.”

That is all in the future. What Prairie Ridge knows now is its defense is in good hands with Ommen and Perhats leading the way.

“Coach Petersen really helped out, and the other linebackers, like Parker Tomlin and John DiCecco and those guys,” Ommen said.

“They really helped me. They told me to listen to the coaches, they know what they’re talking about, just trust them to get you in the right spot.”

I am told to try to use baits that have a little red color mixed in. Pike are taking large minnows.

Chris Taurisano of T-Bone Guide Service (www.tboneguideservice.com – 630-330-0090) sends word, “This week the multispecies bite was good. Lots of white bass, catfish, a few crappies and bluegill and a few walleyes mixed in.

When the fish are active, there is no better bait than Berkly’s Gulp minnows. We also did well trolling Flicker Shads. When the fish are active, 50-plus fish is pretty easy, and other days you can do more fishing than catching. The water temps still are in the low 80s, and until they hit the 70s again, no muskies for the responsible anglers. Enjoy the great action of the multispecies bite right now as it can be awesome. Friday of this past week was one of the crazier days of fishing/catching I’ve had in a long time.

Hopefully, it holds up and everyone can enjoy. From Aug. 20 through 27, my partner, Sean Bermingham, and I are holding a “Musky Boot Camp” on Lake of the Woods in the Northwest Angle of southern Canada. We have a great group of people this year and still have a few spots open for anyone who is interested. It certainly is a trip of a lifetime at a very affordable price.

Feel free to contact me for information on this at 630-330-9090.”

Bob Rossa of Migrator Charters – 815-338-8093. “Fishing in the Illinois waters of Lake Michigan remained very good this past week. Cohoes, kings, steelhead and lake trout were taken in good numbers in 110 to 145 feet of water. Most of the fish were taken in the top 50 feet of the water column. White dodgers with white flies tied behind them and also Moonshine’s Atomic Melon spoons were two of the best baits. Some trout are being taken by the shore and pier fishermen by casting spoons and crankbaits.”

The two share a competitive nature, as we’ve observed watching the fiery Loggains at practice, and Long said the intellect also is a shared quality.

“Both really smart guys from a cerebral standpoint.

They’re on a similar frequency,” Long said. “... It’s like Jay and Mini-Jay in the building.”

Injury report: Receiver Eddie Royal (concussion), tight end Zach Miller (concussion), receiver Derek Keaton (knee), tight end Ben Braunecker (ankle), linebackers Roy Robertson-Harris (illness) and Nick Kwiatkoski (hamstring) and defensive back Brandon Boykin (pectoral) did not practice. Offensive lineman Adrian Bellard was carted off the field with a knee injury. Trevathan did not finish practice because of a knee injury.

Quick hits: Receiver Daniel Braverman is “stacking practices” as the coaches like to say. He had another fine showing Wednesday with a sliding catch and then a leaping touchdown grab. … Cutler hitting receiver Kevin White for a deep pass down the right sideline was the top play of the day for the offense. … Cutler also found tight end Tony Moeaki for a touchdown during red-zone drills. … Rookie safeties Deon Bush and DeAndre Houston-Carson each had chances for interceptions but couldn’t hang on.

you can stand your ground and not back down, all of those ex-NFLers agreed it eventually will cost you that job.

Quarterback Jay Cutler echoed their point, saying, “Every camp is different. This camp, you’ve got a lot of turnover on the roster, you’ve got a lot of young guys, a lot of guys that are out to prove themselves, a lot of competition in select groups where guys are really trying to earn a spot, so I think it’s good that we see that.”

The other thing that’s unusual about this Bears team is the coaches seem to be encouraging a lot more competition and perhaps even aggression between the offense and defense, and Cutler confirmed it.

“Definitely, you could see in OTAs, it was headed in that direction,” he said. “So it’s really no surprise that we’re getting into a few scuffles out here.

“We’re trying to run the ball physically.

Coaches in meetings, we’re challenging offensive guys and defensive guys. Sometimes it’s going to spill over. I think coach Fox does a good

job of kind of navigating when’s too much and when to kind of push.”

Offensive lineman Kyle Long has been forced to watch from the sideline for the most part with his strained calf, but he echoed his buddy Cutler’s thoughts.

“Yeah, no doubt about it,” Long said. “You look across the ball from us, Akiem Hicks, Eddie Goldman, Willie Young, the linebackers, the secondary; these guys are flying around and making it tough on the offense.

“I’m excited to get out there and compete with these guys. I think we’ve responded well, but on the other side of the token, that defense is playing their butt off.”

At the end of the day, football is a violent game, and guys practicing being violent are going to occasionally begin to push and shove.

I’m not saying Fox and his team are wrong to encourage it, but it does seem off what we saw Wednesday, they might be wise to do a little more to control it.

Phelps to carry U.S. flag Friday

The United States’ Carli Lloyd (right) celebrates after scoring against New Zealand during an Olympic women’s soccer match Wednesday at the Mineirao Stadium in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The U.S. won, 2-0.

WOMEN’S SOCCER: UNITED STATES 2, NEW ZEALAND 0

Lloyd, Morgan both score for U.S. in win

By TALES AZZONI

The Associated Press BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil – Carli Lloyd and Alex Morgan scored a goal in each half as the U.S. women’s soccer team defeated New Zealand, 2-0, Wednesday in its debut at the Rio Games, getting off to a solid start in its attempt to win a fourth straight Olympic gold medal.

Lloyd put the Americans ahead with a header in the ninth minute, and Morgan added to the lead with a low shot from inside the box less than a minute into the second half at the Mineirao Stadium in Belo Horizonte.

“That was the best way we could have started,” said Tobin Heath, who made the cross that led to Lloyd’s goal.

“We came out with a lot of energy and a lot of determination. I think in that regards we put our best foot forward and got that goal, and I think that helped propel us throughout the game.”

The U.S. dominated from the start to earn the convincing victory and remain unbeaten in 2016, with 14 shutouts and only one draw in 16 games.

“I was really pleased that we got the clean sheet,” U.S. coach Jill Ellis said.

“I thought we moved the ball against a very determined team.”

Near the end of the game, many of the nearly 10,000 fans at the stadium

chanted “Zika, Zika” at goalkeeper Hope Solo, who before coming to the Olympics upset some Brazilians by tweeting a photo of herself wearing a hat with mosquito netting in a reference to the virus. The chants were repeated after the final whistle.

“I’m glad the fans had fun,” Solo said. “And if they had fun at my expense, more power to them.”

The Americans are trying to become the first team to win the Olympics after succeeding at the World Cup. The Olympic tournament is the first major competition for the U.S. since the retirement of key players such as Abby Wambach and Lauren Holiday after last year’s world title in Canada.

The revamped Americans next play France on Saturday, again at the Mineirao.

France and Colombia played the other Group G match later Wednesday, also in Belo Horizonte.

New Zealand, playing in its third consecutive Olympics, barely threatened the U.S. at the Mineirao, which holds more than 60,000 spectators.

Lloyd opened the scoring after Heath beat a couple of defenders just outside the box before making a cross to the far post, where the U.S. captain outjumped a defender to head the ball into the other corner and score her seventh Olympic goal.

RIO DE JANEIRO – Michael Phelps has a lot of memorable moments at the Olympics.

This one ranks right up there.

Adding another honor to his remarkable career, Phelps was chosen to carry the U.S. flag in Friday night’s opening ceremony at Maracana Stadium.

The pick seemed Michael Phelps obvious – Phelps, after all, is the most decorated athlete in Olympic history and will be competing in his fifth Summer Games – but he clearly was overwhelmed Wednesday after being selected in a vote of American athletes representing each sport.

“To lead our country into this Olympics is something, honestly, that

I never thought I’d have the opportunity to do,” Phelps said.

In fact, this will be the first time he’s participated in the opening ceremony, which can be a grueling experience requiring athletes to spend hours on their feet.

As a 15-year-old, his handlers thought it best that he not take part although he qualified in only one event at the 2000 Sydney Games. At the past three Olympics, Phelps skipped the ceremony to rest for his first event, the 400-meter individual medley, which was the next day.

With the 400 IM no longer part of his program, he was available to lead the American team into one of the world’s most iconic stadiums.

“I think I had the biggest smile on my face that you could possibly find,” he said. “A little bit of emotion came over me. I probably shed a little bit of tears, just of joy.”

Antiheros prove no antidote for trendy ‘Suicide Squad’

By JAKE COYLE

The Associated Press The superhero movie is at a strange crossroads. It generally either takes itself too seriously (“Man of Steel,” “Batman v Superman”) or delights in not caring a bit (“Deadpool”). The choice, dear moviegoer, is yours. Do you prefer your costumed heroes to brood or to break bad?

Right now, good is out; self-proclaimed “edginess” is in.

Riding the trend is David Ayer’s day-glo superhero circus “Suicide Squad,” a gleefully nihilistic, abysmally messy romp that delights in upending the genre’s conventions and tries desperately to, like, totally blow your mind with its outre freak show.

It’s less of a movie than a long trailer that doesn’t provoke as much as it thinks it does. It’s stitched together by an endless jukebox of everything from “House of the Rising Sun” to K7’s “Come Baby Come,” a soundtrack gimmick taken straight from “Guardians of the Galaxy” (which more successfully gave the superhero movie new moves).

Despite the train wreck of “Batman v Superman” (the last DC Comics challenge to Marvel’s dominance),

The cast of “Suicide Squad.”

“SUICIDE SQUAD” STARRING: Will Smith, Jared Leto, Margot Robbie

PLOT: A secret government agency

recruits imprisoned supervillains to execute dangerous black ops missions in exchange for clemency.

RATED: PG-13 for sequences of violence and action throughout, disturbing behavior, suggestive content and language RUNNING TIME: 2 hours, 3 minutes excitement is high for “Suicide Squad” thanks to a marketing campaign that rivals the presidential ones and the promise of some punk in the poppy, PG13 realm of the superhero movie.

But the nastiness of “Suicide Squad” is superficial, merely fetishized gestures of ultra-violence that will impress few beyond 13-year-old boys. (Sorry, that’s unkind to 13-year-old boys.)

Based on the comic created by John Ostrander, the film is a cartoonish yet grim “Magnificent Seven” in which a desperate government – for the moment without the services of Superman or Batman – turns to a handful of villains, locked away in prison cells, to combat a

yet greater supervillain running amok.

There’s Will Smith’s sniper-forhire father Deadshot, Margot Robbie’s psycho-in-pigtails Harley Quinn, Jay Hernandez’s fire-breathing gang member El Diablo and others. They’re a gruesome bunch, reluctant to fight anyone else’s battle, but forced to when the program’s leader implants an explosive device inside them. They bond in conversation over whether they’ve killed kids or not. Lovely stuff, really.

The standout is Robbie’s Harley Quinn, the most dynamic presence of the bunch: a clown cocktail of mental disorder and cheerleader pep. Robbie pulls it off, but Ayer spoils the movie’s breakout character by continually reducing her to mere eye candy.

Quinn is the demented girlfriend of the on-the-loose Joker (Jared Leto), who turns out to be a curiously small part of the film. That, however, proves to be a relief. Leto, working in the sizable wake of Jack Nicholson and

Heath Ledger, proves a massive disappointment in the role, lacking in both menace and wit despite the tall-tales of his Method extremes during shooting.

The film, as a whole, is missing the humor and spryness that was promised. Ayer’s previous film was the WWII tank drama “Fury,” an overbearingly bleak movie that similarly followed a harsh band of warriors and flipped the good-vs-bad dichotomy.

In “Suicide Squad,” Ayer questions whether a killer can be a hero and vice versa, even equating psychopaths with elite soldiers. He would like to vanquish the triumphant superhero and reorder the comic universe for more complicated times. But the only thing he may have killed is the comic-book adaption.

Watching “Suicide Squad” (which nevertheless will make hundreds of millions) is to see the superhero movie reaching rock bottom, sunk by moral rot. Down, down and away!

Theatrevolt promises fun ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream’

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com With its second main-stage production, the new Richmond-based Theatrevolt looks to have some fun with Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

The production opens Aug. 5 and runs at 8 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays through Aug. 20 at Memorial Hall Civic Theater, 10308 W. Main St., Richmond. Tickets cost $15 at the door or beforehand at www.theatrevolt.com.

Formed late last year with a goal to perform at least three shows a year, Theatrevolt has compared its purpose to a lightning bolt, hoping to electrify artists of all kinds, perhaps even create a renaissance, organizers have said.

That’s exactly what they’re creating with “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” the classic comedy written by Shakespeare to portray the events surrounding the marriage of Theseus, the Duke of Athens, to Hippolyta and the fairies who inhabit the forest in which most of the play is set.

“It’s kind of like a renaissance fair revival of ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream,’ ” Philip Denofrio said of Theatrevolt’s interpretation of the play. Denofrio is directing the production along with Carrie Dabelow.

“It has elements of both the renaissance period, but it also kind of plays with the idea of fairies as gypsies,” Denofrio said. “I just think it’s a really fun take on it.”

Denofrio, who serves as the poet in residence for the Raue Center for the Arts in Crystal Lake and hosts regular poetry nights, also plays Philostrate in the production. He’s been involved

“A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM” WHEN: Aug. 5-20 WHERE: Memorial Hall Civic Theater, 10308 W. Main St., Richmond COST & INFO: Presented by Theatrevolt as the new group’s second mainstage production. Shakespeare’s beloved comedy of love and magic in the Athenian forest. Schedule: 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Tickets: $15 and can be bought at the door.

in Theatrevolt since its inception. The group contains some members who were involved with Theater Undreground, another Richmond-based theater group that disbanded after a roughly sixyear run beginning in 2009.

“A Midsummer Night’s Dream” is Denofrio’s directorial debut.

“I think it really makes the work of Shakespeare... thought to be inaccessible and dense and a different kind of English language, incredibly accessible,” he said of the production. “On top of that, it’s just really funny.”

Amanda Beth Newell (left) of McHenry works on her demolition derby car with her friends, Justin Morningstar of McHenry and Liz Whitwell of Sycamore.

This will be Newell’s second time competing in the McHenry County Fair’s Demolition Derby.

“I like to paint my cars really pretty,” said Newell (below).

McHenry mom tackles demolition derby, hopes to inspire female drivers

Story by CHRIS MORDI – editorial@shawmedia.com • Photos by SARAH NADER – snader@shawmedia.com

A

manda Beth Newell has been in more car crashes than she can remember and suffered through numerous concussions and broken ribs. She’s been showered by gas from an exploding gas tank that left her trapped in a puddle of the stuff.

But she keeps going. Newell is a woman who will never give up or back down.

There’s too much riding on her pain.

Newell, 35, of McHenry, is a driver on the local demolition derby circuit. One of the few women competing, Newell said she races because she is on a mission.

“I started doing this because a guy told me a woman couldn’t do it,” she said.

Newell will be among those racing at 1 p.m. Aug. 7 as part of the Demolition Derby at the McHenry County Fair in Woodstock. If she makes it through that race, she’ll move on to the main race later that day at 5 p.m.

Growing up derby

McHENRY cOUNTY FAIR

Newell is kind, likes to call people “hun” and speaks the way she races – all out.

It comes naturally to her. She grew up in a family that raced. She said she spent hours at race tracks, tinkering on cars with her mom and dad, even sleeping in pit row garages when races went late into the night.

“I’ve been doing demolition derby for two years,” she said. “My family got me into it. My sisters did it before me. Now it’s my time to do it.”

One of the reasons Newell races is because it helped her mother beat cancer, she said.

“My mom said to me, ‘If you beat the boys, I’ll beat cancer,’ and she did,” Newell said. “Mom got cancer a second time. She said, ‘Run for me.’ Now here I am, racing against the clock.”

WHEN: Aug. 3-7 WHERE: Route 47 and Country Club Road, Woodstock COST & INFO: A 68-year tradition with 4-H livestock and non-livestock shows, educational displays, vendors, a carnival and grandstand entertainment, including the Demolition Derby at 1 and 5 p.m. Aug. 7. Admission is $5 for the grandstand. Pit tickets cost $10 for those ages 8 to 13 and $20 for those ages 14 and older. (Gate admission not included.) For information on the derby, visit www. derbyicons.com. Fair tickets and information: www.mchenrycountyfair.com.

The great equalizer

A full time-mom and student who is raising a son, 7-year-old Cadian Thunderburk, and studying to be a firefighter and paramedic, Newell races for another reason – to change perceptions and inspire others.

“Racing is a great equalizer,” said Tory Schutte, who along with his wife, Brenda, owns and runs www.derbyicons.com, a business that organizes and promotes demolition derbies, including those at the McHenry County Fair.

“All that matters is that you can run that gas pedal, steer that car and take smart shots,” he said. “Amanda does that. She beat some of the best guys. She’s a fierce competitor.”

And it’s not only the other racers who have noticed her competitive streak.

A 10-year-old girl once approached Newell after she’d won a race.

“Are you the driver of B2D [the number of Newell’s car]?” she asked.

“Yes, I am,” Newell responded.

The girl looked at her mom and asked if she could have a picture taken with Newell.

“It made me feel so amazing that a little girl paid attention and spotted me out after the fact,” Newell said. “That little girl was awesome. She

was better than a trophy.”

According to Newell, the B2D combination painted on her doors stands for “Born to Derby.”

Her car of choice is a Chevrolet Lumina painted pink and purple because it’s “bad juju if you don’t,” she said. “I like to paint my cars really pretty. I have the wicked side of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ this year.”

Newell said she chooses Luminas because they are stronger and last longer. She also can move her roll cage, gas tanks and wheels from the wrecked car to the new one, she said.

“I do as many races as long as the car will hold up,” she said. “I will race it ’til I break it.”

Newell said she did one race with three tires and no steering.

“You keep going ’til you can’t go anymore. That’s when you know you’ve done the best,” she said.

Watching the show

For those who have never been to a demolition derby, it can seem like a bunch of cars driving around and smashing into each other.

Newell and Schutte said the smart drivers have strategies in place to win.

“Watch for the drivers who make the good shots and try to take out the tires [of their opponents],” Newell said.

The drivers who are “going nose-tonose” are crashing the strongest parts of the car and not inflicting enough damage to take another driver out of the race, Schutte said.

“You want to make every hit count.

You kinda have to know cars to know where to hit,” Newell said. “Guys out there who take girls for granted think we don’t know that.”

Another way to watch the race is to pick a car based on its number or color.

A lot of people pick what they think is the coolest car to win, Newell said.

“That’s why I go above and beyond on the paint and stickers,” she said. “I know that those people will be watch-

Newell said to keep an eye on what she calls “sandbaggers,” who drive

jkunzer@shawmedia.com It’s all about the blues and barbecue this weekend in McHenry.

In its fifth year, the Rotary Club of McHenry Blues, Brews & BBQ festival, opening Aug. 5 and running through Aug. 7 at Petersen Park in McHenry, continues to grow since its beginnings as a way to raise money for local food banks, relief efforts around the globe and more.

“We really have a terrific lineup of world-class blues musicians,” said Diana Mark, one of the festival’s organizers.

“It’s just getting better and better every year.”

Along with the outdoor entertainment, the festival includes a BBQ Cook-Off, home brew competition, numerous food vendors and more.

Some under-tent seating will be available, but visitors are welcome to bring lawn chairs or blankets.

Tickets cost $10 at the gate or $5 if bought online at www.mrbbb.com by 9 p.m. Aug. 4. Children ages 12 and younger are free.

The Rotary Club aims to keep ticket prices down, offering “a heck of a deal to see this quality of talent,” Mark said.

Emcees for the weekend are Chicago disc jockey Greg Easterling of 97.1 FM The Drive and Greg Guy, son of blues legend Buddy Guy. “Greg Guy will probably surprise us by performing with some of the talent on Saturday,” Mark said. “Both are just great, helpful guys who do a wonderful job introducing the talent and keeping the crowd going.”

Among this year’s performers are John Todd, Kevin Purcell and the Nightburners, Mike Wheeler Band, Nu Blu Band, Dave Weld and the Imperial Flames, Fernando Jones Kids, Anthony Gomes and Vino Louden.

The Fernando Jones Kids, performing from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m.

Aug. 7, are a special treat, Mark said, featuring musicians involved in a Blues Kids Foundation, which offers an annual Fernando Jones Blues Camp free of charge to those selected.

Among those performing in McHenry will be 13-year-old Adam Dalipi of Belvidere, who took part in his second Blues Camp this year after learning about the program in a tent at the Chicago Blues Festival.

His family had gone to see Buddy Guy perform, with Dalipi, who plays guitar and sings, interested in music from a young age, his mother Anka said.

Joined by three other performers – 16-year-old Donovon Lawnicki on bass and singing, 13-year-old Stacy Norris on drums and 7-year-old Xavier Poole also on drums – Dalipi will take part in 14 blues songs from a variety of artists, such as B.B. King and Stevie Ray Vaughan.

“It’s an amazing experience for them,” Anka Dalipi said.

Big crowd pleasers last year, Kevin Purcell and the Nightburners – known for both their singing and Purcell’s harmonica playing on the

Another well-known Chicago blues artist performing is Vino Louden, while The NuBlu Band features Buddy Guy’s daughter, Carlise Guy, “a powerful singer,” Mark said. And Gomes, a Canadian blues and blues rock artist, has quite a following, Mark said.

“He’s a pretty big name for our little fest,” she said.

Among the vendors will be Uncle Bub’s BBQ & Catering, Crystal Lake Rib House, The Full Slab, Ricerside Chocolate Factory and Bud’s Homemade Root Beer. The Richmond-Spring Grove Area Rotary Club will sell sweet corn and funnel cakes.

A Crystal Lake dance studio will host “So You Think You Can Dance” winner Lauren Froderman for a day of dance.

Froderman, who won Season 7 of the popular Fox reality show, will host master classes Aug. 6 at Dancepiration Dance Studio, 835 Virginia Road, Units D & E, Crystal Lake. The full day in-house convention – nine hours of dancing – is open to dancers of all levels, including dancers with special needs, at a cost of $200 at www.liberateartistis.com.

Now a professional dancer in Los Angeles, Froderman said Dancepiration is a studio “that provides a super safe and loving environment and covers dancers of all needs.”

“I think this is an absolutely wonderful experience,” she said of her upcoming visit.

Liberate Artists LLC teamed up with Dancepiration Dance Studio to bring Froderman in for the day, along with two choreographers from New York City – Danielle Bensky, with credits including Disney Theatricals, Jofreey Ballet School, Stagedoor Manor and Ohana Arts in Oahu, Hawaii, and Ashley Albonetti, who has worked with the Moscow Ballet and the American Academy of Ballet.

The dance styles of contemporary and classical ballet, commercial hip hop, jumps/turns/tricks, commercial jazz and lyrical will be taught.

Two classes for dancers with special needs will be taught, including a jazz class featuring elements from the movie “Frozen” and a musical theater class featuring music from Disney musicals. The day also will include a talk-back and an award ceremony with a dancer showcase.

“We’re so excited especially that they’re offering the sepical needs classes as well,” Dancepiration Owner Chrissy Rossi said. “They’re not excluding any kids. That’s definitely what we’re all about.”

Rossi said dance students – most of whom watch “So You Think You Can Dance” and follow Froderman on social media – have been “ecstatic” since hearing about the visit.

“It’s kind of like the equivalent of bringing in the all-star champion of the

She loves giving back and doing classes like this. … This is for the community. We want everybody to get a chance to dance.”

Froderman, known as a contemporary/jazz dancer on “So You Think You Can Dance,” earned the show’s top spot, along with a grand prize of $250,000, in 2010.

“When it was first happening we were pretty much kept in a bubble,” she said of the experience. “I didn’t really notice until after the show [how popular it was]. I’d be out to lunch or something and there’d be families and fans. ... It’s

It’s been a really cool and humbling experience in a way.”

After the show, Froderman went on to graduate from Loyola Marymount University in California in 2015. She said she’s danced professionally for television and film since then, and suggested fans follow her on social media to hear about any future upcoming experiences.

As for young aspiring dancers, she said, “I think the best advice I could give is just to do it because you love it because there’s no other way you will be able to make a career out of it or be able to do it for a long time.

“It can’t be about, like, winning any trophies or status or even about winning a dance show or anything like that. It really has to come from the core of you just enjoying doing it. …You have to build yourself up to a place where you’re doing it because you love it, not just because you need outside affirmation.”

8 must-have elements for a colorful, fun outdoor living space (BPT) - Mother Nature is the ultimate exterior designer, and she shows off her chops every spring and summer when backyards come alive with colorful flowers, birdsong, warm breezes and the lush aroma of newly mown grass. Is your deck, patio or other outdoor entertaining area living up to her standards?

If your backyard entertaining space could stand some freshening and pops of color, the outdoor living experts at Big Lots point to these eight elements to turn any patio or deck into a paradise worthy of Mother Nature’s brilliance:

any outdoor living space, how you use your patio or deck should guide your choice of furnishings. If you’ll be doing a lot of outdoor dining, a table and chairs are essential.

Do you envision relaxed evenings chatting with friends in a comfortable setting? Outdoor sofas, love seats, benches and gliders, arranged around a coffee table, can create an intimate area. Shopping for patio furniture doesn’t have to be a challenge; you can find a wide selection of affordable styles, colors, pieces and materials at home stores like Big Lots.

1. A perfect patio set

2. Colorful cushions and pillows

Patio furniture is the focal point of

Even the most-loved, highest quality

patio set can benefit from replacing old, faded cushions with something new, colorful and exciting. New cushions can completely change the look of your entire outdoor living

space, and remind you why you fell in love with your furniture in the first place. Don’t just stop with replacing chair cushions, however.

Add toss pillows in colors or pat-

16 CLASSIFIED • Thursday, August 4, 2016 terns that compliment your chair cushions, and pile them on your outdoor sofa to create a comfortable, bright seating area.

3. Fabulous firepits When the temperature drops on a spring evening, who wants to head indoors? Adding a firepit to your outdoor living space is a great way to extend your enjoyment of it well into the night. You don’t have to be a pro at building a fire to enjoy a firepit, either. Big Lots offers a gas-fueled firepit nestled inside a stone-topped table that makes starting a fire as easy as turning on the gas and flipping a switch. Arrange four plushly cushioned rockers around your firepit table, and you have the perfect spot for evening chats.

4. An enlightened atmosphere Speaking of evenings outdoors, lights extend your entertaining

• Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

hours and create inviting ambiance for patios and decks. Choose a mixture of light sources, such as candle-lit lanterns for a warm glow, solar lights to illuminate travel paths, and string lights that cast gentle light from above.

5. Smart shade sources Of course, much of your outdoor time will be spent in the sun, so take steps to provide some shade for your patio or deck. A range of versatile shade sources fit virtually every decor theme, and patio or deck size.

Have a large, open concrete patio?

A gazebo with a canopy and netting can provide shade and keep insects away from guests and food. Want to move the shade with the sun? An offset umbrella with stand can help you put the shade exactly where you need it at any time of day. Traditional umbrellas shelter seating areas, and add bright pops of color to your outdoor decor.

Big Lots has everything you need to create a great grilling station.

6. Multiple seating areas

In addition to the focal point of your patio or deck, use patio furniture to create separate seating areas for more flexible entertaining. A small cast iron bistro set or bench situated beneath a tree is a great spot for quiet conversations, sipping your favorite beverage or relaxing with a good book. A glider near the patio or deck is sure to be a favorite spot for parent-child chats.

7. A great grill station Whether you prefer a big, beautiful four-burner 48,000 BTU stainless steel gas grill or a traditional round charcoal kettle grill, a well-planned and efficient grilling station is a must for outdoor entertaining. Be sure to outfit your station with your grill of choice, a rack of accessories like a grilling tool set and grill brush, and a cooler for briefly storing food before it goes on the grill.

ONLY $225,000!

8. A greener outdoor environment If you truly want to celebrate Mother Nature’s creativity, what better way could there be than to decorate your outdoor living space with her handiwork? Arrange flowers and greens in containers in a variety of shapes and sizes throughout your outdoor entertainment area.

A small, brightly colored pot of pansies makes a wonderful centerpiece for your patio table. Plant a tall fern or palm in a large, vividly hued pot and use it as a natural division between “rooms” in your outdoor living space.

WATCHES/ PARTS: Large Selection New “Old Stock”: 14K/

Lane Olinghouse, an author of self-help articles, said, “Those who flee temptation generally leave a forwarding address.”

In yesterday’s deal, East had to resist the temptation to play third hand high when his highest card was only an eight. Then, it was right to give count by playing low from a tripleton. This permitted partner to work out that declarer had started with only two cards in this suit.

What is the situation today? May East succumb to third-hand-high temptation?

South is in three no-trump, and West leads his fourth-highest spade four.

When declarer covers West’s spade four with dummy’s five, East may play third hand high because he has a doubleton in that suit. He starts an echo, a high-low.

A clever South will take that trick with his jack, not with the eight.

From East’s play, South knows that West started with the spade ace and queen. As long as East does not win a trick, declarer still has a spade stopper.

South then leads his low heart to dummy’s king and runs the club queen.

After taking the trick with his king, what should West do next?

West will be tempted not to believe his partner and to cash the spade ace, thinking it will drop South’s king. Here, though, that lets the contract make. Instead, West should trust East, not South. If South still has two spades left, East must be put on lead. West should shift to the diamond nine, top of nothing.

Then East should win with his ace and return the spade two. This allows the defenders to take one club, one diamond and four spades for down two.
