Good morning, McHenry County ...

Woodstock needs help for cleanup Live in Woodstock? Have plans Saturday?

Probably, but can you spare a few hours?

Woodstock is holding its first community cleanup day from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. – an event I hope will take off to become an annual one. Organizers will provide gloves and garbage bags and assign volunteers locations that they can leave better than they found them.

It’s hosted by the Woodstock Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the city of Woodstock, the Woodstock Jaycees and the Environmental Defenders of McHenry County, along with some other community residents.

Like many towns, you tend to see a lot of the same faces in Woodstock helping out at charity and community events. Having lived here for about two decades now, I’m proud to say there are many of them, but we could always use a few more.

Check-in will be at Matrx 4 at 610 E. Judd St., where volunteers can partake in a continental breakfast supplied by Country Donuts in Crystal Lake. At the end of the event, the Woodstock Public House is sponsoring a free

FOUND NOT GUILTY

A Wisconsin woman was acquitted Thursday of DUI charges stemming from a 2014 crash that seriously injured a 17-year-old.

Prosecutors argued Kelly L. Kufke was under the influence of prescription drugs when she crossed into the opposite lane on Alden Road and struck another vehicle.

McHenry County Judge Michael Feetterer returned a not guilty verdict after the July 29 bench trial. See story, page A7.

ST. LOUIS – A light that appeared high over St. Louis’ Gateway Arch is perplexing officials.

The mystery started when an Illinois man shot video of the light early Tuesday morning and shared it with KTVI-TV. After seeing the report, an employee at an Illinois park across the river from the arch took a look at footage from a security camera and also saw the same light.

The video has been posted on the park’s Facebook page.

Mike Buehlhorn, director of the Metro East Parks and Recreation District, said he doesn’t know if he believes in UFOs, but “there’s something weird with that one.”

Spokesmen for the nearby Scott Air Force Base and the Federal Aviation Administration said they know nothing about the source of the light.

LAKE IN THE HILLS – As 9-year-old Owen Moore pedaled on the stationary bike, he hoped to convert his kinetic energy into electricity.

Corresponding lights measured the amount of energy Moore and other children exerted while pedaling Thursday at the “Hands-on Science Extravaganza.”

The bike generator exhibit was one of many that children could play with and learn from.

“I hope they gain a curiosity of how things work so that they appreciate what they learn in school,” said Kelly Sindelar,

a mother of three.

The hands-on museum was brought to Chesak Elementary School by the Huntley Area Public Library. Twelve exhibits focused on science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM). Some topics addressed during the STEAM Museum included robotics, friction and 3-D printing.

“They’ll take it right from summer into the classroom,” Jessica Mina said about her children.

Put on by Mobile Ed Productions, a traveling educational assembly company serving about 35 states, the museum offered attendees an opportunity to learn in a kid-friendly manner. Information was structured toward kindergartners

through sixth-graders, but guests of all ages were welcome.

In addition to children and their families, also in attendance was NAO, a $10,000 humanoid robot capable of moving and introducing himself. NAO captivated the attention of children and parents alike and has served as an asset to the STEAM Museum for three of its four years of existence.

“I think STEAM is great because it’s more than just science – it’s science made practical and relevant to today’s world,” said Ryan Thompson, vice president of Mobile Ed Productions.

State report: Valley Hi failed to control scabies outbreak

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Valley Hi Nursing Home is working to improve its plans to deal with infection control in the wake of a state investigation that concluded that the plans’ deficiencies led to a scabies outbreak.

The Illinois Department of Public Health report, dated July 20, concluded that not only were residents of the county-run nursing home not isolated despite having rashes, but also that cases of the very contagious disease may have started appearing long before the initial report.

“Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to have an effective infection control program to identify, monitor and contain the spread of a communicable disease between residents and staff,” the report stated. “This failure resulted in the spread of a communicable skin rash to 27 residents.”

Six of the cases as of Thursday morning have been positively identified as Norwegian scabies, McHenry County Department of Health Administration Manager Joseph Gugle said. Norwegian, or crusted, scabies is a severe form of the disease caused by an infestation of the skin by the human itch mite – its victims have thick crusts of skin that contain large numbers of the mites and their eggs.

Scabies is spread by both direct person-to-person contact and through contamination of clothing, bedding and furniture.

Valley Hi has until Monday to submit a corrective action plan, and about another month to correct the deficiencies identified in the state report, facility Administrator Tom Annarella said. That will include beefing up its existing policy on infectious diseases.

“The facility is going to review its current infection control policies and procedures, and revise them to include more specific directions on handling skin-related rashes,” Annarella said.

Valley Hi notified the health de-

Tom Annarella, Valley Hi Nursing Home administrator partment June 30 of the issue, and confirmed the first case the following day.

Annarella ordered the facility closed to new residents and to visitors, and a treatment plan was implemented for all residents and staff. But the report concluded in part that measures in controlling the spread were inadequate.

Investigators who visited the facility July 1 found that a number of residents with “red rashes and notable itching” were in a dining room eating the evening meal, with one “vigorously scratching her head” while being assisted to eat. What’s more, the state report concluded that scabies may have been a problem weeks or even months earlier.

An unidentified care plan coordinator quoted in the report told investigators that Valley Hi “has had residents with rashes for some time.” A nursing director said that a few residents had been treated before the June 30 report, but that the county health department was not notified because the cases were considered isolated and not an outbreak. A facility log indicated that one resident’s rash started last October.

Annarella said that the epidemiology indicates that scabies likely was introduced to the home in March, but that Valley Hi’s medical director disagrees with the idea that it came any earlier. He also said that the outbreak does not mean that all rashes seen before that point had to be scabies.

Nursing homes, extended-care facilities, prisons and other crowded places where close skin contact is frequent are common sites of scabies outbreaks, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Norwegian scabies is most common with the elderly, the disabled and people with compromised immune systems.

“If the first case happened in October, by the time you hit June, nearly a year later, it would be full-blown across the house,” Annarella said.

But to Cary resident Christy Wagner, whose mother-in-law and uncle live in Valley Hi, the report validated what she said she had reported for weeks prior. She told both the Valley Hi Operating Board and the McHenry County Board that she had alerted staff to her mother-in-law’s rash and terrible discomfort, as well as the apparent scratching of other residents, in early June. Wagner has to wear a gown and gloves to see her mother-inlaw, who still is in isolation.

She has called the outbreak a preventable one caused by a “failure to connect obvious dots” and inadequate communication – she alleged that several members of the operating board that oversee the home first learned of the outbreak by reading about it in the newspaper or being turned away.

“It’s our family’s hope that, going forward, there will be much better communication between staff and administration, working together so patient welfare as well as staff health, is a priority. That’s what they’re there for,” Wagner said.

Annarella praised Valley Hi’s staff for its response to the outbreak, and said the home will learn from its mistakes.

“We’ve taken all of the concerns brought forth very seriously, and we’re working on an even stronger program to prevent this from happening in the future,” Annarella said.

“Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to have an effective infection control program to identify, monitor and contain the spread of a communicable disease between residents and staff. This failure resulted in the spread of a communicable skin rash to 27 residents.”

observe any confusion or impairment during this initial encounter, only that she was visibly upset.

Assistant State’s Attorney Robert Ladd and Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs argued that this was an incident of “horrific driving” and Knudson’s observations were consistent with someone under the influence of drugs.

While she did not agree with Feetterer’s decision and hoped the outcome would have been different, Kennedy Hehr said she has learned to lean on her faith and believes everything happens for a reason.

“The biggest thing is I’m alive,” Hehr said outside the courtroom. “This experience has definitely made me stronger.”

Judy Hehr, Kennedy Hehr’s mom, said she believed more could have been done by the sheriff’s office and state’s attorney’s office in this case.

“We have wasted 2½ years of our life, energy and time expecting justice would be done, and justice has not been done,” she said. “We will pray for Kelly and we’ll forgive Kelly, because that’s the kind of people we are.”

• Friday, August 5, 2016

WOODSTOCK – A Wisconsin woman was acquitted Thursday of DUI charges stemming from a 2014 crash that seriously injured a teenager.

McHenry County Judge Michael Feetterer returned a not guilty verdict after the July 29 bench trial of Kelly L. Kufke.

Kufke was charged in January 2014 with aggravated DUI, endangering the life and well-being of a child, improper lane usage and failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident.

Kufke was driving a 2013 Volkswagen Jetta south on Alden Road about 4:30 p.m. Jan. 26, 2014, when she crossed into the opposite lane and struck a 2003 Honda Accord driven by James Long of Walworth, Wisconsin, police have said.

Prosecutors argued that Kufke was under the influence of prescription drugs at the time of the crash.

Long and his passengers, including Wisconsin teenager Kennedy Hehr, 17, were traveling back to Wisconsin from a McHenry County volleyball tournament, Hehr testified. She said she was asleep in the back seat and woke up to “excruciating pain.” Hehr suffered a ruptured intestine and spent 11 days in the hospital.

Kufke and two children in her car were taken to Centegra Hospital – Woodstock.

More than two years after the crash, Hehr, of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, said she still deals with severe stomach pain.

Hehr and several family members were present in the courtroom Thursday.

After weighing evidence and arguments presented by the state and defense, Feetterer said the state was unable to prove Kufke was under the influence of drugs that impaired her ability to safely drive.

He said the only evidence pointing to

what happened the day of the crash was a statement by Kufke to police and testimony from Hehr, who was asleep at the time of the crash. He said prosecutors did not provide any further witnesses or evidence to further explain what transpired, such as testimony from Long or other passengers in the vehicle.

Kufke’s statement to McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Noah Knudson indicated she was driving on Alden Road when she saw a vehicle in the middle of the roadway traveling north. She tried to move to the shoulder to avoid a collision but instead hit the rear end of the vehicle, she said.

Knudson testified that when he spoke with Kufke, she had difficulty answering questions and would doze off. He also said he saw at least nine pill bottles containing medication that included oxycodone, gabapentin and topiramate. He said from these inferences he believed she was under the influence of drugs.

Assistant Public Defender Kim Messer argued that the day of the crash, the roadways were snow covered and there were whiteout conditions, according to a weather-related warning issued by the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

She said her client got into a crash, suffered head trauma and became dazed because of the concussion she sustained, as indicated by medical records. There was no evidence any of these medications in her blood showed impairment, Messer said.

Kufke told Knudson the medication located in the car was prescribed and she took it earlier that morning – several hours before the crash. Knudson said he did not take the medication into evidence, nor did any officer take photos of the scene.

Knudson also said he previously encountered Kufke the same day, before the crash, when her car was in a ditch on Alden Road. Knudson said he did not

Jager, who finished sixth in 2012, is hoping to become the first U.S. runner to medal in the event since Brian Diemer in 1984. Fans, supporters and friends are planning to gather at the Buffalo Wild Wings in Algonquin to cheer on Jager on both mornings he is scheduled to compete.

China is trending second with a potential medal count in the 60s, and Russia third in the 50s. Host Brazil is projected in the mid-teens with a medal count also in the mid-teens.

Medal predictions

There are several sources that predict medal winners. The general consensus is that the U.S. will be the runaway medal count winner, with somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 total medals, give or take a few,

WOODSTOCK – A renovation is planned for a deteriorating house located in Woodstock’s Downtown Business Historic Preservation District.

The city acquired the abandoned property, at 315 W. Judd St., in March, and on Tuesday the Woodstock City Council awarded a bid to Lafontaine Enterprises to purchase it for $3,000.

Tom Lafontaine, owner of Lafontaine Enterprises, said at the meeting he planned on completing renovations on the exterior of the house within six months.

The home has been vacant for a couple years, “but we see complaints going back several years of the condition of it,” City Planner Nancy Baker said.

The 1,600-square-foot house prob-

ably dates to the 1860s or ’70s, Baker said. Stucco siding and debris from the home have fallen off in the yard, she said, and garbage has accumulated on the property.

“The neighbors have been extremely patient,” Baker said, as they wait for the home to be cleaned up and renovated.

Baker said the Woodstock Historic Preservation Commission will need to approve any changes made to the exterior of the house. The developer will have to take off the stucco siding to see what the property originally looked like, she said.

Only one bid was received, according to city documents. The council unanimously approved the award of the bid for purchase, giving the city attorney the power to finalize and execute a real estate contract for the property.

WOODSTOCK – A Wonder Lake man was sentenced to 10 years in prison after he admitted to committing sexual acts against a young child in 2015.

Brian E. Tiedemann, 21, pleaded guilty Thursday to one count of predatory criminal sexual assault of a child, a Class X felony.

In exchange for plead- Brian E. ing guilty, all remaining Tiedemann charges against the defendant were dismissed by the state’s attorney’s office. Judge Sharon Prather accepted the plea agreement.

Tiedemann was arrested Jan. 22 on

multiple counts of predatory criminal sexual assault and aggravated criminal sexual assault after more than one law enforcement investigation.

Tiedemann has been in the custody of McHenry County Jail since his arrest in lieu of $750,000 bond, and he will receive credit for time served in jail.

He is required by state law to serve 85 percent of his sentence.

In addition to prison time, Tiedemann will complete a period of mandatory supervised release between three years and natural life. He also will have to register as a sex offender for the remainder of his life.

Assistant State’s Attorney Sharyl Eisenstein said Tiedemann faced at least 30 years in prison if he were convicted on all charges against him.

City Council making progress on annexing unincorporated pockets

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The city of Crystal Lake has annexed two more pockets of unincorporated land surrounded by the city, and could be in a position as early as next month to absorb four more.

The City Council on Tuesday, with two unanimous votes, annexed Querhammer and Flagg Funeral Home, 500 W. Terra Cotta Ave., into the city, as well as a property at 650 1/2 W. Terra Cotta Ave. that is home to an auto repair business and a cement form business. Council members also forwarded to the Planning and Zoning Commission a request from a landowner with two surrounded parcels to annex into the city.

City leaders in recent years have prioritized annexing pocket or “island” properties that are surrounded by the municipality, but are under county zoning. Besides a fairness is-

sue, especially to property owners who already have annexed, the city wants to avoid situations in which large billboards, electronic signs or other structures that do not conform with the city’s ordinances are being built within city limits.

About a dozen pockets of unincorporated land still exist in city limits with Tuesday’s vote. Most have voluntarily offered to be annexed. Four property owners, according to a staff report, either did not reply to a July letter from the city giving them a chance to do so, stated that they opposed annexation, or stated that they would not mind being involuntarily annexed.

The zoning commission on Wednesday heard four annexation proposals, which the City Council could approve next month. They are Geske and Sons Asphalt Paving, 400 E. Terra Cotta Ave., Hughes & Son Signs, 652 W. Terra Cotta Ave., Copley Roofing, 4709 Route 176, and the U-Haul rental and storage facility at 4504 Route 14.

Several others are expected to follow. The latest, which council members forwarded Tuesday to the zoning commission, are two properties in the 4000 block of Terra Cotta Avenue – one holds a multi-tenant strip mall, and the other holds a bar, a billboard and an electronic video sign.

• SCIENCE BOOST

Continued from page A4 Of the seven sessions offered, Debbie Luetscher, head of youth services at Huntley library, estimated that all tickets were distributed, with at most 60 children a session. While families explored each exhibit, Thompson provided in-depth explanations regarding the event’s major themes. Library volunteers also assisted with the stations.

“We love finding new ways to cooperate with the school district and keep kids engaged and learning,” Luetscher said.

When originally established four years ago, Thursday’s assembly went by the name STEM Museum. A few years ago, art was incorporated –

changing the name to STEAM. Thompson said the museum is ever-changing and art allows unsightly tech to be disguised in a visually appealing way.

“I really like being able to take the program to kids who haven’t been exposed to this kind of stuff yet and watch their imaginations explode right before my eyes,” Thompson said.

After Thompson explained the event’s STEAM theme, children we dismissed to explore and interact with each station. Xyla Rizzo, 6, investigated the exhibits with her grandmother, Carol Grasser.

“I just felt that I would like to expose her to as much as I could in the way of science,” Grasser said. “The more things she sees and experiences, the more opportunities she has in the future.”

STATE

GOP surprised by Rauner birth control, abortion stances Gov. Bruce Rauner speaks July 28 at a news conference in Chicago.

By IVAN MORENO

The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner has clashed with Illinois Democrats on big issues such as the state budget and the influence of unions, but he recently he bucked the party line on legislation the GOP has fervently opposed: expanding birth control coverage and access to abortions.

Not a single Republican voted in favor of either bill.

So last week, Rauner surprised some Republican legislators and angered conservative groups when he signed both Democrat-sponsored measures. One of them extends insurance coverage for nearly all contraceptives, and the other requires physicians who refuse to perform abortions or other health care services for moral and religious reasons to provide information to patients on where they can go instead.

Immediately after Rauner’s decision, the head of one religious group called him a traitor, and some conservative lawmakers were befuddled.

“I’m still trying to digest that,” Republican Rep. Thomas Morrison said when asked about the governor’s decision to sign the bill to offer information

Laquan McDonald murder case gets special prosecutor

CHICAGO – A judge on Thursday appointed a special prosecutor to handle the murder case against the white Chicago police officer who shot a black teenager 16 times, video of which led to large protests and the eventual ouster of the city’s police superintendent.

At a hearing, Cook County Circuit Judge Vincent Gaughan swore in Kane County State’s Attorney Joseph McMahon to handle the prosecution of Officer Jason Van Dyke. Van Dyke was charged with first-degree murder last year in the 2014 killing of Laquan McDonald just hours before authorities released the police dash-cam video showing him repeatedly shooting the

“My primary objection was due to the fact that it violates religious freedom rights and also free speech rights,” said Morrison – who, along with several other Republicans, met with Rauner before he signed the proposal to express their concerns.

The signings highlight a side of the governor’s ideology that gets little attention as he wages a war against Democrats to change the political landscape of Illinois by trying to weaken unions, pushing for term limits and calling for the state to be more pro-business.

Convicted murderer Peterson appeals pension revocation

JOLIET – Despite being sentenced to prison recently for plotting to kill the man who originally put him behind bars for murdering third wife Kathleen Savio, former Bolingbrook police officer Drew Peterson is trying to keep his pension.

Peterson has asked a Will County judge to reverse the Bolingbrook Police Pension Board’s decision to stop his $79,000-per-year payout. The

those issues have led to a yearlong budget standoff likely to extend past November.

The governor’s office provided a brief statement on the bills, but no explanation for why he signed them.

The same day he signed those bills, he also approved legislation to decriminalize possession of marijuana in small amounts.

Duckworth trial date vacated, settlement being finalized

SPRINGFIELD – A judge has vacated a trial date next month for a workplace retaliation lawsuit against Democratic U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth and said a settlement agreement reached in June is being finalized.

Even before he was elected in 2014, Rauner had distinguished himself from more conservative politicians who take a hard-line stance on abortion and whether insurance companies should cover birth control, including the morning-after pill, which some Republicans view as equivalent to an abortion.

When Rauner was campaigning for governor, he expressed his views on abortion in a questionnaire from The Associated Press.

“I believe this is an issue that is best decided by a woman and her doctor.

I do support restrictions on late-term abortions,” he said.

The Illinois Family Institute’s executive director, who called Rauner a traitor in a tweet, said the governor’s action showed he is “not what he claims to be.”

“He claims to be a small-government guy. I guess that applies just to fiscal issues, and not the power of the state,” David Smith said.

Duckworth is in a race to unseat Republican U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk in a November contest that could help determine which party controls the Senate. Kirk’s campaign has sought to use the lawsuit against Duckworth.

The lawsuit accused Duckworth of violating ethics laws in reprimanding Christine Butler and Denise Goins when Duckworth led the Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs.

The settlement agreement stipulated Duckworth did nothing wrong.

BP Whiting Refinery discharges waste into Lake Michigan

WHITING, Ind. – An operational issue has caused BP’s large northern Indiana refinery near the southern shore of Lake Michigan to discharge about five times more industrial waste into the lake than allowed.

The refinery has been dealing with the problem at its wastewater treatment plant since Friday, The Times of Northwest Indiana reported.

The company told the Indiana Department of Environmental Management that it discharged more than 8,900 pounds of total suspended solids Monday. It is allowed to discharge nearly 5,700 pounds a day.

BP discovered in another test Tuesday that the total suspended solids discharged rose to more than 26,600 pounds.

BP spokesman Michael Abendhoff said the discharge involved wastewater solids, not hydrocarbons. He said the company is working to return the refinery to normal operations as soon as possible.

IDEM spokeswoman Courtney Arango said the discharge doesn’t affect people, drinking water or marine life and that it shouldn’t be a concern for visitors of the nearby Whihala Beach County Park.

GOP feud overshadows attacks on Clinton policy The ASSOCIATED PRESS PORTLAND, Maine – Donald Trump’s warning that the November election might be rigged is “ridiculous,” President Barack Obama declared on Thursday, wading deeper into the 2016 campaign.

Anxious Republicans, meanwhile, struggled to move attention from their own infighting to Democratic foe Hillary Clinton.

The feud between the GOP’s presidential nominee and Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan again overshadowed Trump’s Clinton criticism, underscoring the rising concerns from party leaders over the New York billionaire’s unorthodox candidacy and its impact on the future of the party.

Facing sinking poll numbers and campaign morale, Trump has questioned the integrity of the nation’s election system in recent days.

“I never heard of somebody complaining about being cheated before the game is over,” Obama said during a Thursday press conference.

“My suggestion would be: Go out there and try to win the election.”

Trump, meanwhile, refused for another day to endorse Ryan, his party’s top elected official.

The Republican speaker has declared his support for Trump, but he said such endorsements aren’t “blank checks” and pledged to speak out against the businessman’s divisive positions if necessary.

Most recently, that means Trump’s sustained criticism of an American Muslim family whose son, U.S. Army Capt.

Humayun Khan, was killed in Iraq.

“I don’t like doing this,” Ryan told a Wisconsin radio station. “I don’t want to do this, but I will do this because I feel I have to in order to defend Republicans, and our principles, so that people don’t make the mistake of thinking we think like that.”

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks Thursday during a campaign rally at Merrill Auditorium in Portland, Maine.

Campaign chairman Paul Manafort insisted Trump would work with Ryan if elected, but he conceded the endorsement question had sparked tension inside Trump’s New York campaign headquarters.

The day before, vice presidential nominee Mike Pence broke with Trump and endorsed Ryan. A Pence spokesman on Thursday issued a blanket endorsement for all Republican congressional incumbents seeking re-election, even as Trump withheld endorsements for Arizona Sen. John McCain and New Hampshire Sen. Kelly Ayotte as well as Ryan.

Addressing Maine voters later in the day, Trump was repeatedly interrupted by protesters, including some who were ejected after waving copies of the U.S. Constitution in the air – a reminder of Trump’s criticism of Khan’s father, who waved his own copy of the Constitution as he criticized Trump at last week’s Democratic National Convention.

The businessman directed his own criticism at Clinton on Thursday, while briefly addressing the tension with Ryan.

He said he had given Pence permission endorse the speaker the day before.

“I say, ‘Mike, you like him?

Yes. Go ahead and do it, 100 percent,’ ” Trump recalled of his conversation, interrupting his audience when they began to boo Ryan.

“Paul Ryan’s a good guy, actually,” he said.

As the infighting continued, Trump and his allies lashed out at the Democratic presidential nominee’s foreign policy record.

Specifically, they contended that Clinton was responsible for negotiations that led to a $400 million U.S. payment to Iran earlier in the year.

Trump and some other Republicans have described the money as ransom payment for four Americans detained in Iran days before the money was delivered.

“It’s so sad, so disgusting,” Trump said of the payment.

At his news conference, Obama strongly rejected the idea of a ransom. “This wasn’t some nefarious deal,” he said of a payment that was part of a decades-old dispute over a failed military equipment deal.

As Trump used the issue to assail Clinton, he faced new questions about his description of a video he suggested was taken by Iranian forces removing bags of money from a plane.

Several senior U.S. officials involved in the Iran negotiations said they weren’t aware of any such video.

Clinton makes pitch to GOP voters

By LISA LERER and CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press

LAS VEGAS – Hoping to capitalize on the criticism battering Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton has begun portraying support for her candidacy as a patriotic duty of voters. She’s broadening her message and appealing directly to Republicans to keep him out of the White House.

It’s a twist for a Democratic presidential candidate who has some of the highest unpopularity ratings in history. But aides believe Trump’s controversial campaign and the chaos it’s caused within the Republican Party offers a unique opportunity.

In Ohio recently, Clinton urged Republicans “to pick country over party.” She told several thousand at a union hall in Las Vegas on Thursday, “I want to be the president for all Americans. Democrats, Republicans, independents. We’re going to pull America together again.”

Clinton had always planned to speak to a broader audience during the general election campaign, a standard move for presidential candidates after their party conventions. But the state of Trump’s campaign and his decision to stick with his inflammatory primary message has prompted her to intensify her focus across party lines.

Democrats, including President Barack Obama, have begun arguing that Trump poses a unique danger to democracy. That’s an argument they did not make against former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney or Arizona Sen. John McCain, the past two GOP presidential nominees.

As she’s campaigned across the country this week, Clinton has framed the election as a choice between economic growth and “demagoguery” and “insults.” And she’s making a point of acknowledging the deep economic anxiety that helped fuel Trump’s rise

“I know people are angry and frustrated,” she said in a speech on a factory floor in Hatfield, Pennsylvania.

“I’m not going into this with some kind of rose-colored glasses.”

A small team is working on Republican outreach at Clinton’s campaign headquarters in Brooklyn, largely focused on fielding calls from Republicans interested in giving money and helping with fundraising. A more formal effort will launch soon, focusing on wooing uneasy GOP voters at the national and state level.

This week, Clinton picked up the backing of Hewlett Packard Enterprise CEO and Republican fundraiser Meg Whitman and New York Rep. Richard Hanna, the first Republican House member to back her. Clinton herself reached out to Whitman, her campaign said, and campaign chairman John Podesta also is involved in

BRIEF

DandreaBanquets.com

U.S. poised to hit Obama’s target pare for 10,000 admissions from the wartorn country. Total admissions for the of 10,000 Syrian refugees WASHINGTON – After a slow start, it appears increasingly likely that the Obama administration will hit its goal of admitting 10,000 Syrian refugees into the U.S. before the end of September.

State Department totals show that 2,340 Syrian refugees arrived last month in the U.S. That’s more than what occurred during the entire seven months after President Barack Obama directed his team to pre-

GOP outreach.

Former New Jersey Gov. Christie Todd Whitman, a Republican, said she was not ready to back Clinton, but said she would not be supporting Trump.

She said: “I knew him when I was governor. What’s going on is who he is. He is not going to change behavior.”

Republicans doubt the effort will gain traction. Jeff Kaufmann, chairman of the Iowa Republican Party, noted Clinton’s high negatives, saying said he didn’t think she had “a prayer with Republicans.”

But some longtime GOP voters appear persuadable, such as Don Campbell, executive director of the National Electrical Contractors Association, and a Republican who’s backing Clinton.

“I’ve never seen anything like this in my life,” said Campbell, who met Clinton when she toured a Las Vegas electric company Thursday. “It’s be-

cause of what comes out of his mouth, and there are a lot of people who are making the same decision.”

Clinton’s campaign doesn’t anticipate a mass movement of what they call “common-sense Republican” voters or elected officials to her candidacy, according to a pair of aides. They spoke on condition of anonymity, because they were not authorized to publicly discuss campaign strategy.

Rather, the target is moderates, particularly women, in the crucial swing counties surrounding cities such as Richmond, Virginia, Columbus, Ohio, and Philadelphia.

Jennifer Pierotti Lim, who heads a group called Republican Women for Hillary, said they have heard from nearly 100 women since the party conventions concluded. “I think Trump doubling down on these things gives people an extra push to come forward,” she said.

The campaign feels bullish about its standing in the more diverse battleground states including Colorado, Florida, North Carolina, Nevada and Virginia, the aides said. They believe the outreach also could help in whiter, Rust Belt states where the race appears close.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid predicted that Clinton would have opportunities to pick up support in some traditionally Republican states, including Arizona, Georgia and possibly Utah. Clinton’s campaign and her allies have paused some of their advertising in Virginia and Colorado, a sign of confidence in those key battleground states.

The outreach effort is not limited to her campaign: Allies at Priorities USA, a super PAC supporting her bid, have begun airing an ad in swing states featuring footage of Romney and other Republicans expressing their concerns about Trump’s experience and temperament.

current budget year now come to about 7,900, and the vast majority of them are Sunni Muslims, records show.

If the pace from June and July continues this month, the target should be reached with a couple weeks to spare before Obama heads to the United Nations to urge world leaders to admit more refugees and to increase funding for relief organizations.

MIAMI – Jessica Ardente waited 36 years to have her first baby. Her parents will visit in two weeks to watch their grandson’s ultrasound. There are cribs and car seats to shop for, a nursery to decorate, and bottles, diapers and clothes to buy.

And now, on top of everything else, there is Zika to worry about.

Ardente lives in the one-squaremile section of Miami that health officials are urging pregnant women to avoid because of the mosquito-borne illness, which can cause severe birth defects, including stunted heads.

“You can take every step you can trying to take care of yourself with your diet and exercise and going to your prenatal appointments, but now I have to worry about mosquitoes and going outside,” a four-months-pregnant Ardente said, petting her dog as she sat on the couch in her one-bedroom apartment.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has warned expectant mothers to steer clear of the city’s Wynwood neighborhood, where at least 15 people are believed to have been infected with the Zika virus

scary, but I’m not going to not leave my house. I’m just trying to be careful.”

She smiles while showing off redand-blue baby onesies adorned with colorful giraffes – a gift from a friend.

For now, other than her belly, it’s the only evidence in the apartment that she is pregnant.

Her doctor has told her to consider hiring a dog walker, but she insists on sticking to her routine while taking precautions. She puts on bug spray and wears long pants and long sleeves every morning and evening, despite the sweltering summer heat, when she walks the dog.

It also means more doctor visits plus frequent blood and urine tests.

And she’s working out indoors now instead of at a studio that keeps its bay doors open.

U.S. health authorities have said they don’t expect major outbreaks in this country like those seen in Latin America and the Caribbean. But concerns mounted after experts admitted Tuesday that despite aggressive spraying, they are having a difficult time eradicating the mosquitoes that spread the illness. The Aedes aegypti mosquito can breed in just a bottle cap of standing water.

OUR VIEW

The Olympic spirit lives on Beginning today and for the days to come, the eyes of the world will focus on Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, site of the Summer Olympics.

The Olympic spirit represents the best of human nature, aspiring to friendly and honest competition among the athletes from all the countries of the world.

The Olympic Games also have produced some of the great heroes in the history of American sport, athletes including track and field stars Jesse Owens, Jackie Joyner-Kersee and Carl Lewis, boxer Muhammad Ali, gymnast Mary Lou Retton, the 1980 men’s hockey team, swimmers Michael Phelps and Mark Spitz, and many, many others.

We will watch these games in hopes of meeting the next American stars, whose success stories will unfold before us.

It’s hard to believe that in 2009, Chicago was among the cities vying to host these games.

Although being the focus of the world’s attention would have been a source of civic pride for us in the region, and having such a huge spectacle close to home would be a unique and exciting opportunity, it’s almost impossible to imagine how the city and state could have afforded such an undertaking, given the precarious financial position they are in today.

What will the first South American games be like? Already we have heard reports about polluted waterways, of the city trying to hide its poor neighborhoods from view, of unpaid local police and firefighters, and the growing concern about the mosquito-borne and sexually transmitted Zika virus.

But then, these sorts of stories seem to be common in the run-up to the games, which every two years (including the Winter Games) are held in a new location, often with a ground-up building effort that always seems to offer new quirks.

Perhaps it is time for the Olympic flame to be parked permanently in one place. It’s not uncommon for the facilities and infrastructure constructed for the games at great expense to fall into disrepair after the last medal has been awarded.

The Olympics should not leave a trail of abandoned facilities in their wake, and if hosting the event requires so much specialized infrastructure, then perhaps a permanent site is the best solution.

Those are questions that can be solved another day, however. These next couple of weeks, we will join the world as it looks toward Rio, to see how the first Olympic Games ever held in South America will unfold, and cheer on the athletes who represent the U.S., including Algonquin’s own Evan Jager, who will be competing for a medal in the steeplechase.

Stop trusting Putin on Syria

For more than a month, Secretary of State John Kerry has been pressing the regime of Vladimir Putin to accept what, for Moscow, would be a sweetheart deal on Syria. The U.S. would grant Russia’s long-standing request to carry out joint operations against Syrian rebels deemed to be terrorists, in exchange for another Kremlin promise to restrain bombing by the regime of Bashar al-Assad in some parts of the country. This cave-in to Putin would be so sweeping that some senior Obama administration officials have not concealed their doubts: In an interview with The Washington Post’s David Ignatius, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper Jr. questioned whether Russia could be expected to deliver on any promise it made in Syria.

Sure enough, it turns out that Putin had other ambitions.

Rather than settle for the partial victory offered by Kerry, Russia has joined with the Assad regime in a new campaign to drive all anti-regime forces out of Aleppo, the

country’s largest city – a feat that would essentially win the war.

Last week, Moscow unilaterally declared that it was creating four evacuation corridors out of rebel-held districts and invited the 300,000 civilians and armed combatants in them to evacuate. Anyone who remained, the Russians suggested, would be mercilessly targeted. That assault is already underway: Having cut off the last road into the rebel-held area nearly three weeks ago, regime forces have been systematically bombing its remaining hospitals and other medical facilities.

As even State Department spokesmen were obliged to acknowledge, the Russian operation, which the Kremlin cynically described as a humanitarian mission, was little more than a preemptory demand for the opposition’s unconditional surrender that ignored the ongoing U.N.-sponsored political process and violated a Security Council resolution. For their part, the rebels responded with a major offensive to break the Aleppo siege. On

Monday, the deadline set by U.N. Resolution 2254 for an agreement on a political transition in Syria, some of the heaviest fighting of the year was underway.

Once again, the Obama administration appears to have been blindsided by Putin, just as it was when Russia dispatched its forces to Syria in September.

“These are important days to determine whether or not Russia and the Assad regime are going to live up to the U.N.,” Kerry said Monday, adding, “the evidence thus far is very, very troubling.”

Unfortunately, Putin has no reason to respect such warnings from Kerry. Time and again, the secretary has declared that Russia must deliver or suffer consequences. Each time, Moscow has disregarded the jawboning. On Monday, he said, “We will see in the course of the next hours, few days, whether or not that dynamic” with Russia “can be changed.”

But then, he spoke nearly the same words six months ago.

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.

VIEWS Paul Glastris as their athletes do in the games themselves. This power inspired decades of corruption by IOC officials, culminating in the bribery scandal over the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.

Despite reforms since then, allegations of corruption continue.

The policy has also led the IOC to allow authoritarian regimes to have their “turn” at hosting the Games – from Hitler’s Berlin to Vladimir Putin’s Sochi.

Putting on a modern Olympics is a massive undertaking. Doing it for the first time, with no prior experience, taxes the management capacities of even a wealthy, sophisticated city or country. The Atlanta Olympics’ finance chief once said that her job was to “create a Fortune 500 company from scratch, then take it apart at the end.”

The pop-up nature of the enterprise drives up the costs of construction and operations, according to a study released last month by the University of Oxford. The study found that every Summer and Winter Olympics from 1960 to 2016 experienced massive cost overruns averaging 156 percent, “the highest average cost overrun of any type of mega-project.”

These overruns are related to

surface, it appears as a simple cost-cutting measure that is great for the taxpayers.

However, much like someone saying raise the minimum wage $5 across the board without addressing back end consequences, it sounds like typical fluff and no filling. It is easy to take a wide approach and say all taxing bodies must cut levies by 10 percent.

It is much more fruitful, and arduous of a task, to ask where can we cut unnecessary items 50 percent and boost other services that are worthy and necessary.

This plan seems more political and hands-off than the type of leadership the county should expect from a chairman who is not afraid to get his hands in the work and make the tough decisions.

another resource that is inevitably squandered when the games get moved around: human capital. The hardearned expertise a city derives from hosting the games – the knowledge its planners, contractors, technicians, security officials and armies of volunteers gain on the job – can’t be put to use again in the same way if that city won’t be hosting another Olympics four years later. Instead, another city gets to make the same rookie mistakes.

Then there are the insanely wasteful infrastructure projects that host cities typically build and that are often of little use after the games leave town.

The beautiful stadiums and training facilities that Athens constructed in 2004 have mostly sat idle since – though some of them now house refugees. The billions of dollars Greece borrowed to build these facilities helped tip the country into its current crushing financial crisis. Greece is so broke that the government has stopped paying for the training of its Olympic athletes.

All of this waste, risk and corruption is utterly unnecessary. The ancient Greeks held the Olympics in the same wooded sanctuary on the Peloponnese for a thousand years with no evident complaints in the extant literary record. We should do something similar for the modern Olympics: pick a city or country to be the permanent host – one each for the Summer and Winter Olympics.

Any number of places could do. But

Greece is the obvious choice, at least for the Summer Olympics. It has an undeniable historical claim. It staged a well-run Olympics in 2004. The facilities it built wouldn’t be too costly to refurbish. And the extra tourism money that Greece would receive would help it pay off its debts – one reason International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde has recently spoken favorably about the idea.

The current Olympic site selection system has become so obviously ridiculous that countries that might otherwise like to host the Games are thinking twice about bidding. Two years ago, Norway pulled out of contention for the 2022 Winter Olympics because of the expense as well as revelations about the entitled demands of the IOC – including specially designated highway lanes for IOC members.

Last July, despite efforts by the IOC to help host cities reduce costs, Boston dropped its bid to be the site of the 2024 Summer Olympics after a state-financed report concluded that the only sure way for a city not to lose massive amounts of money would be for the games to return to that city every four years. A permanent home for the Olympics is such a clearly practical idea that it’s possible to imagine it garnering widespread support – except, of course, within the IOC.

Those of us who enjoy experiencing the “thrill of victory and the agony of defeat” of the Olympic Games could probably do without one particular emotion: the fear that the games, which begin today in Rio de Janeiro, will be an operational disaster.

So far, the headlines do not inspire confidence. Armed robbers heisting a German TV crew’s equipment. “Uninhabitable” residential facilities for athletes. Marathon swimmers being told not to open their mouths while competing in sewage-contaminated Guanabara Bay. The 2004 Olympics in Athens were preceded by similar worries right up until the day they began. In the end, those games were a great success. So there’s reason to hope the same will happen in Rio. Still, the ill-preparedness creates real risks. And those risks are part of a larger set of problems that have long dogged the modern Olympics and that derive from a single, avoidable source: the International Olympic Committee’s insistence on picking a different city to host each Games.

There is nothing sacred about this policy. It began because the founder of the modern games, Pierre de Coubertin, after holding the first competition in Athens in 1896, decided to have the next one in his native Paris. Since then, the IOC has grown accustomed to the clout that comes with choosing Olympic sites – a prize that nations covet and compete for almost as hard

UK central bank tries to soften Brexit shock

By DANICA KIRKA

The Associated Press LONDON – Britain’s central bank launched a range of stimulus measures Thursday meant to jolt confidence back into an economy shocked by the vote to leave the European Union. Analysts, however, said they may not be enough to halt a slide toward recession.

In a multipronged approach intended to grease the gears of the economy by making borrowing easier and cheaper, the Bank of England cut its key rate to 0.25 percent from a previous record low of 0.5 percent.

It also agreed to pump an additional 60 billion pounds ($79 billion) of new money into the economy through the purchase of government bonds. It furthermore said it will buy up to 10 billion pounds of corporate bonds to make it easier for companies to borrow, and announced a program of cheap loans for banks to make sure they can lend to people and businesses at low rates.

“This is the appropriate response to the economic conditions we find ourselves in,” the Bank of England’s governor, Mark Carney, said during a news conference.

The measures were somewhat bolder than investors had expected, pushing stocks up and the pound down.

Experts said they will help shore up confidence at a time of uncertainty by making borrowing marginally cheaper and showing that authorities are taking action. Since the vote’s outcome, business and consumer activity in Britain has dropped at the fastest pace since the

A London bus passes the Bank of England while people sit on a bench Thursday in London.

The Bank of England is expected to cut interest rates close to zero and possibly inject billions in new money into the economy to help it endure the shock of the Brexit vote. depths of the financial crisis in 2008, according to surveys.

But they are unlikely to address the economy’s fundamental concerns.

While cheaper money will help households and companies, the cost of loans already is very low and is not their primary concern right now, economists said. Businesses in particular are worried about whether to make investments or hire in Britain without knowing what the country’s trade relationship with the EU will be. That could take years.

To reflect the grim reality, the Bank of England cuts its economic forecasts by the most in almost two decades, particularly for the period after 2016. While

it still predicts 2 percent growth this year thanks to strong growth before the vote, it slashed its forecast for next year to just 0.8 percent from its May estimate of 2.3 percent. That suggests the economy could fall into – or close to – recession, defined as two consecutive quarters of economic contraction.

“We took these steps because the economic outlook has changed markedly” since the referendum, Carney said in a statement. “By acting early and comprehensively, the (Bank of England) can reduce uncertainty, bolster confidence, blunt the slowdown, and support the necessary adjustments in the U.K. economy.”

And there may be more in the coming months. All of the measures have scope for further action, including another cut to interest rates “close to, but a little above, zero” if incoming economic data proves broadly consistent with the Bank of England’s new forecasts.

Carney insisted that subzero interest rates were not being considered.

The value of the British pound fell sharply on the announcement of the measures, as lower rates tend to weigh on a currency. It was down 1.5 percent at $1.3126 by late afternoon in London, while stock markets rose, as the weaker currency will help many of the country’s multinationals and exporters earn more money abroad.

One of the main concerns for the U.K. economy is that the immediate drop in confidence caused by the vote could become ingrained, with employers delaying expansion and hiring, and consumers putting off purchases of big-ticket items such as cars and appliances.

Now that the central bank has acted, analysts said, the government also needs to step in by providing clarity on Britain’s future relations with the EU and by encouraging growth with government spending and tax incentives.

Lucy O’Carroll, chief economist at Aberdeen Asset Management, described Carney as a “first responder” to the shock of Brexit.

She said Carney had through his comments signaled to the new Treasury chief, Philip Hammond, that the government needs to come up with a plan to make the economy more competitive and invest in infrastructure.

Lady Gaga, Travolta help celebrate Bennett birthday

Kiefer Sutherland participates in the “Designated Survivor” panel Thursday during the Disney/ABC Television Critics Association summer press tour in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Kiefer Sutherland is an accidental president in his new TV show BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. – If there’s a clear-cut hit on broadcast TV’s fall lineup, it’s likely to be ABC’s political thriller “Designated Survivor.”

It certainly clicked for Kiefer Sutherland, its star, when he first read the pilot script.

“I had no intention of doing a television show,” he told TV writers at Thursday’s session of the Television Critics Association summer conference. “But I remember getting to the end of the script and realizing I was potentially holding the next 10 years of my life in my hands.”

Sutherland stars a bottom-level Cabinet member who is suddenly appointed president of the United States after a catastrophic attack kills the incumbent chief executive and most of his administration.

Sutherland’s character, an appointee with no political ambitions of his own, is in charge of pulling the government, and the nation, back together while keeping his own family intact (Natascha McElhone plays his first lady).

“This guy doesn’t even want this job,” said Sutherland. “Literally, through the first five episodes, he’s trying to find an exit.”

The series, said executive producer Jon Harmon Feldman, tells “the journey of a man as he grows into the man he didn’t know he could be, and the journey of a nation that gets a leader it didn’t know it wanted.”

Feldman described “Designated Survivor” as a blend of the aspirational qualities of “The West Wing” with the terrorism whodunit of “Homeland” and the political machinations of “House of Cards.”

“Designated Survivor” premieres Sept. 21.

PARENTING

Usain Bolt’s mom says key to keeping him calm is laughter

By LEANNE ITALIE • The Associated Press

How does the mom of Usain Bolt help the world’s fastest man keep his cool? “We say things that will make him laugh,” said Jennifer Bolt as her sprinter star offspring faces down what just may be his last Olympics.

At nearly 30, Bolt has six Olympic gold medals from the Beijing and London Olympics.

Although he withdrew July 1 from Jamaica’s national meet with a slight tear in his left hamstring, the world record holder in the 100- and 200-meter dash proved his fitness July 22 in the 200 at the London Anniversary Games and deemed himself good to go for Rio. A few days before the London event, his mom visited New York and said in an interview she wasn’t worried, having long ago learned calming her own nerves was the best way to help Usain.

“I know he’s going to get well and everything will be OK for the games,” said the soft-spoken Jennifer, who has been cheering him on since his speed first surfaced around 12 or 13.

“I tell him just stay focused, remember God, remember to pray and read your Bible,” she said.

Usain has come back from injuries before, including left hamstring problems. When it happened in 2004 at what was supposed to be his first Olympics, in Athens, he didn’t make it past the first round. He was just 17.

“It was a bit scary because we didn’t really understand and know what it was,” Jennifer said. “He had wanted so much to be at the Olympics and he just couldn’t make it.”

Jennifer and Usain’s dad, Wellesley, live in the same village along Jamaica’s northern coast, where they ran a general store during Usain’s youth. They’ve been helping him, Jennifer said, “not get nervous” since 2002, when at age 15 he debuted at the World Junior Championships in Kingston.

He won the 200-meter – and that was the beginning for the 6-foot-5 sprinter, who had never been away from his parents or his modest village of Sherwood Content in Trelawny Parish before he left for Kingston to train professionally.

At 12, when he earned a scholarship to attend a high school known for turning out strong athletes, it all clicked for Jennifer. Bolt loved cricket and football growing up, but he has said he settled on track because he was good at it.

I just pray and hope that everything will be good,” she said. “I know that he still depends on his mother.”

It’s just as he did as a teen.

“I can remember in 2002 for the world championships. At the time he was 15 and before the games he didn’t want to go. And he cries, and I had to try to comfort him, encourage him to go out and do his best because he didn’t feel that he could have done it,” she said. “I was really, really, really nervous and, you know, my legs shake. My heart beat.”

Then she listened to the crowd.

“The crowd was behind him. From then I don’t feel that nervous,” she said.

The scene plays out a bit in “The Boy Who Learned to Fly ,” a new short animated film based on Usain’s life. The advice her animated self gives to her nervous teen before the 2002 junior worlds: “You can always go fast when you keep it light.”

Norman Peart, who handles finances for Usain, has been a mentor since he was 15. He was the adult to accompany him to Kingston when Usain first left home to train. Usain lived with him, and later his wife and kids, for three years.

There’s a saying in Jamaica that fits Usain perfectly, said Peart, 13 years his senior.

“We say, you have to have crocodile skin to handle the pressure, and he does,” he said.

So how do the two think the ebullient Usain’s retirement in the next year or so will play out? Jennifer thinks he’d make a great TV analyst.

“He’d put a little vibes to the sports,” she laughed of her son’s reputation for his trademark “lightning bolt,” his love of flashing huge smiles and his party spirit.

For years, websites such as BabyCenter and WhatToExpect.com have provided solid how-to and week-byweek information, in addition to forums for expecting/new parents. But a new genre of sleek apps and sites is emerging, making the old offerings seem staid and outdated. Catering to current trends, such as increased dad involvement, mindfulness and customizable virtual services, the new options are using technology and Instagram-inspired aesthetics to support young parents in the manner to which they’ve become accustomed – on demand and in style.

Ten minutes with a doctor or nurse is $35; 10 minutes with a nurse practitioner or midwife is $18; 45 minutes with a mental health specialist is $70; 20 minutes with a doula or lactation consultant is $25.

Maven

According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, 52 percent of women who have been pregnant report increased anxiety or depression during pregnancy. Meditation has been shown to help with both anxiety and depression. In addition, research has shown women who know self-hypnosis have easier, less painful deliveries. That’s why Expectful is out to get more women meditating while pregnant. “There’s a lot of talk about well-being for women during pregnancy, but not a lot of it mentions mental well-being, which is an important part,” said Chief Executive Officer and founder Mark Krassner, who started Expectful as a tribute to his mother, who experienced difficult times during pregnancy and early motherhood.

For $9 a month, users have access to videos and guided meditations that are organized by trimester and that tackle

“Google the weather, not your symptoms” is Maven’s tagline, and this complete women’s tele-health app is trying to make that easy. “Women spend a lot of time talking about their health,” founder Kate Ryder said. “But so often there’s hearsay and misinformation passed around.” The rampant online searching, self-diagnosing and treating only makes things worse, Ryder said.

Maven connects patients to vetted doctors and health-care specialists (including OB/GYNs, nutritionists, physical therapists, lactation and sleep consultants and mental health practitioners), in addition to offering forums where women can ask questions and connect with one another. Use it to determine whether you have a problem that needs immediate, in-person attention, or use it for a second opinion. If your inquiry might result in a prescription being

Most topics have both 10- and 20-minute options. “We just believe in the power of meditation to help anyone – including pregnant women – tune into their own intuition and tune out the cacophony of confusing messages that bombard all of us from so many sources,” Krassner said.

Baby2Body

What do pregnant women want?

Information. When do they want it? On demand. And that’s what the new app Baby2Body offers. With three levels (free, premium for $4.99 monthly, and all-access for $55 for the duration of your pregnancy and four months after delivery), Baby2Body offers everything from daily tips (such as recipes and infographics) to programmable reminders (Drink that water and do those Kegels!) and Listen & Do podcasts (such as guided meditations). There’s also a place for jotting down all the questions you want to ask your health-care provider at your next appointment so everything is in one place. Only the all-access level, however, includes on-demand videos that feature expert sources discussing topics such as birthing techniques, sleep issues and breast-feeding.

28 Treatments for opioid addiction vary Dear Dr. K: My son is addicted to painkillers. He has been in and out of treatment programs, but nothing has worked. I recently heard about a monthly injection that can help people overcome addiction. Can you tell me more about this?

Dear Reader: The problem of addiction to opioid prescription painkillers (and illegal narcotics) is growing worse. I’m sorry it has affected your son. You are correct: There is a relatively new treatment, called Vivitrol, which has helped some people.

The opioid painkillers include drugs such as Vicodin, Percocet and OxyContin.

With continued use, a person can develop a physical dependence on these drugs. That means a person experiences withdrawal symptoms if he stops taking the drug.

These drugs also can cause a “high.” Both of these effects contribute to addiction.

I spoke to my colleague Wynne Armand about treatment options for opioid addiction. She is a primary care physician at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital.

Detoxification, or “detox” programs, can help a person get through the initial, intense withdrawal symptoms when coming off a drug. However, detox alone often is not enough. Many people will relapse and use again without additional treatment.

The additional treatment may include counseling and long-term medications.

There are three FDA-approved, longterm medications for treating opioid addiction: methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone. The first two are “agonist” drugs: They produce some of the same “high” as opioids and can be addicting. They also can produce dangerous symptoms if a person takes too much. However, they are less likely to do these things than the opioids.

In contrast, naltrexone is an “antagonist.” It binds to opioid receptors but does

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff not activate them. As a result, it blocks the “high” from other opioid drugs. Naltrexone is available as a daily pill; its effect in blocking a high from opioid drugs lasts only a day. Also, obviously, it only works if it is taken, and people often forget to take a pill every single day.

In contrast, Vivitrol is a long-acting form of naltrexone. It is given as a monthly injection, and its effects last a month. Many doctor’s offices and clinics have started to offer Vivitrol injections.

If someone taking Vivitrol relapses and starts to use opioid drugs again, they will not experience the same high.

However, there is a danger with Vivitrol: The person seeking the high might try to overcome the blocking effects of Vivitrol.

This can lead to a severe overdose and death.

Also, the risk of overdose or death is high in those who stop Vivitrol and reuse opioid drugs, because after the opioid drugs have been blocked for a while, they become more potent when the blocker is removed.

No studies have compared the three long-term treatments with one another.

Vivitrol may be more appropriate for people who have had no success with the agonist treatments (methadone and buprenorphine), have a milder addiction, have difficulty taking a daily medicine and are highly motivated to quit. Ask your son’s doctor for his or her advice.

The first is: “Fine. Bring food your kids will eat or I’ll thaw them some frozen pizza.”

Or, if you’re feeling brave, say: “I’m serving (blank), so hire a baby sitter. That way, the kids can have what they’re used to and we’ll have an enjoyable adult evening.”

You’re not overreacting and you’re not crazy.

However, some people are unable to grasp how deeply a miscarriage in the early months of a pregnancy can affect the mother-to-be psychologically and physically. Unfortunately, Rob appears to be one of them.

You didn’t mention whether you told your sister-in-law why you didn’t feel up to celebrating, but if you didn’t, you should have because she probably would have understood and let you off the hook. You also should have stayed home, not driven six hours round-trip to drop Rob off in your fragile condition.

If this continues to cause problems in your marriage, perhaps your clergyperson (if you have one) or a marriage counselor can help you get the message across to your husband.

Dear Abby: When I invited a family member and her family for dinner, she asked what I was serving. When I told her, she said, “My kids won’t eat that,” so I ended up making a different meal that met with her approval.

It was annoying, and I thought she was very rude. I can’t imagine saying something like that to someone who is preparing food for me.

This is a family member, so I can’t just write them off, but do you have any witty responses should this happen again? – Dis-

My husband, “Rob,” and I are at odds and your response may affect whether we stay together or not. I had a miscarriage a week ago. I was only seven weeks pregnant, but it was still something real for me.

My husband’s niece’s birthday was over the weekend. I made it clear I didn’t want to drive (three hours) and be around people after what happened. When he told me it didn’t matter, it was his niece’s birthday, I lost it on him. After driving him to his sister’s, I left and drove myself home.

He says I’m overreacting and said I was OK with it earlier in the week. I explained how hurt I was that he’d insist on going and also that he couldn’t stand up for me and explain I was too emotional and upset to attend her birthday. He can’t grasp why I’m so hurt by this. Am I overreacting and am I crazy for feeling the way I feel? – Feeling Down In The

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Interaction with others will result in better connections that will encourage you to share your ideas and collaborate. Networking will pay off, and listening to people of all ages and walks of life will help you develop a lifestyle that will allow you to achieve your goals.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Trust and believe in who you are and what you can do, but don’t ignore suggestions or questions posed by those who know you well and love you unconditionally.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Instead of letting anger take hold, take action. A problem at home or with someone who depends on you too much is best dealt with calmly and quickly.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Listen carefully, say little and stay focused on the best way to use your talents to get ahead. An unexpected change in an important relationship will turn out to be beneficial.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Ask for a favor if it will help you gain access to something or someone of importance to you. An unusual turn of events at home will warrant protecting your possessions.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – You will be faced with a learning curve. False information, misinterpretation, jealousy and unfair competition will keep you on your toes. Don’t share your ideas or your intentions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – If you are planning to make a personal change, do so

quietly and only after you have done sufficient research. Circumstances are not always as they appear. Do things your way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Do whatever it takes to finish what you start. Your dedication and determination will result in a chance to take on more responsibility and increase your income.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Do whatever will bring you the most in return. Don’t let anyone tie up your time or use your resources when you need everything you’ve got to reach your goal.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – When it comes to work, money and getting along with colleagues, you are best to let practicality and common sense lead the way. Go with the flow,

not against it.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Do the things that make you happy and incorporate them into your everyday routine. Staying fit and keeping up with current trends will position you for optimum gains and greater stability.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You are best to observe, listen and remain positive when dealing with friends or family. Not everyone will be clear-headed or realize the consequences of a poor choice.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Do something that inspires you to try new things and meet people who have something unique to offer. A retreat or traveling somewhere unfamiliar will be a valuable experience that encourages personal growth.

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

Henry Morgan, a humorist who died in 1994, said, “A kleptomaniac is a person who helps himself because he can’t help himself.”

A bridge player is a person who helps his partner when he cannot make the key play himself.

Whenever a good bridge player is on defense, he always wonders how he can make his partner’s life easier. In this deal, for example, look at the North and East hands. Against four spades, West leads the club five.

After East takes the trick with his ace, and South plays the 10, what should East do next?

North had 12 points with fourcard spade support. Most hands like that would have been worth a gameforce, but not with eight losers and 4-3-3-3 distribution, when losers tend to stay losers forever.

Third hand should always analyze his partner’s lead. The club five is either low from length with at least one honor (perhaps K-9-5) or a singleton. Whichever holding West started with, it cannot hurt for East to return a club. However, just in case West can ruff at trick two, it is East’s job to tell his partner which suit to return at trick three by sending a suit-preference signal. Since East’s winner is in hearts, the higher-ranking of the other two side-suits, he should lead back the club jack, his highest-remaining card in the suit.

Yes, West would probably be able to read the seven, but East should make the position as clear as possible.

(With the diamond ace, East would return the club four.)

West ruffs, shifts to the heart 10, and gets a second ruff to defeat the contract.

erek Crabill remembers playing pickup basketball as a kid, shooting hoops in the driveway and learning fundamentals at the park through trial and error and scrapes and bruises.

Today, Crabill doesn’t see as many kids perfecting their jump shot or pretending to “Be Like Mike,” a trend that is concerning to the basketball lifer.

“I’ve talked to a lot of coaches across the country and around the area, and one of the things I did a lot of growing up and I miss seeing nowadays is kids just kind of playing in the driveway, playing in the parks, and learning the game that way,” Crabill said.

“One of the things I did a lot of growing up and I miss seeing nowadays is kids just kind of playing in the driveway, playing in the parks, and learning the game that way.”

Derek Crabill

Crystal Lake Central girls basketball coach years at Central as an assistant for Paul Lichtenheld.

Before Central, Crabill was a sophomore boys coach at Richmond-Burton with Brandon Creason and a boys and girls coach at McHenry with Tim Paddock. Before that, he was a JV men’s coach at Clarke.

He is also Central’s boys golf coach and previously was an umpire for minor league baseball.

One of Crabill’s objectives as the new head coach is to get more

interest in a program that has gone 32-81 since 2013. In the past two years, the Tigers have won a combined four games.

“It’s finding a way to get those youngsters involved and loving the game again, because that’s going to be your future,” Crabill said. “You’ve got to find a way to reach those kids. I know that Coach Lichtenheld certainly tried over four years to do that, and I’m going to continue trying.”

Numbers were up in the program in 2015-16, and a big part of the turnaround in interest was the offense run by Central. The Tigers ran a version of the old Loyola Marymount offense, in which a team moves the ball up the court as quickly as possible and takes the first available shot.

The objective is to shoot the ball before the defense can get set and push the pace of the game. Oftentimes, the Tigers would sub five players at a time. This season, the Tigers will run a pure-motion offense.

‘Breathtaking’ West Point wins over senior tight end

Continued from page 2

On defense, they’ll play man-to-man, something Crabill said Creason “would probably cringe at.”

“I truly believe players who are going to play any type of defense first need to know how to play man-to-man, and that will be our basis,” Crabill said.

“That will be our bread and butter.”

This year will be Crabill’s first time as a varsity basketball coach. His shortteam goals include getting Central competitive in the Fox Valley Conference, which is now a nine-team conference with Woodstock, Woodstock North, Grayslake Central and Grayslake North leaving after last school year.

Eventually, he hopes to see the Tigers compete for a regional title (their last came in 2009).

Crabill sees three keys to building a successful program: finding talent, maximizing talent and sustaining talent.

“You need talent at the younger levels, which, in our situation – District 155 – can be difficult,” he said. “Especially in Crystal Lake, because of several middle schools feeding into different high schools. I think getting those young

what’s expected of you as a cadet. How that comes before football. It really doesn’t scare me because there’s so many opportunities you can have.”

Academy life is more regimented and there is a five-year commitment as a commissioned officer after graduation. Ferbet will learn after his first semester of his senior year in high school whether he will attend the academy or the West Point Prep School, which is also on the campus. That will depend on his academic ranking.

Schremp believes Ferbet is wellequipped for Army.

“Austen has a really good balance of work ethic in the classroom and with athletics,” Schremp said. “He’s got a good hard-working temperament. Austen’s definitely the type of guy who can do it.”

Schremp said Ferbet’s size fits well with what Army wants, as well as his ability.

“He has a great knack of being able to put his hand on the ground and block well, and he has phenomenal hands,” Schremp said. “Having that combination, he fits the bill with West Point, and he’s a dedicated student-athlete.”

kids to love the game and wanting to be around it is key.”

Something Crabill has done differently this year is hold summer practices at Veteran Acres Park in Crystal Lake.

Molly Steffen, who graduated from Central in the spring and will play basketball at Carroll University in Waukesha, Wisconsin, has been a part of those workouts.

“We haven’t ever gone out to Veteran Acres before, but I think it’s something different and is pretty fun,” said Steffen, who helped coach a youth girls team with Crabill at Illinois Magic Basketball in the spring. “On Fridays, they play beach volleyball over at Three Oaks, so it’s kind of like cross-training in a way. It’s just more fun and kind of gives yourself a mental break.”

Steffen said she saw more interest in the program last year and that she expects that to continue.

“Crabill will be able to get people excited and wanting to play basketball,” Steffen said. “Really, what stands out is his enthusiasm for the game. Every practice, he’ll bring energy. No matter if it’s an early practice or after school, he always has energy. ... If something isn’t going right, he can get everyone to look at the positives.”

Crabill saw encouraging results in the Palatine summer league in June.

The Tigers went 5-7 against McHenry, Marian Central, Barrington, Stevenson and Hersey, among others.

“We lost some games we probably shouldn’t, but it’s a process,” Crabill said. “The girls had to figure out for themselves that they can compete with schools that are bigger than them ... and programs that have been historically a little more successful than ours.”

Crabill is excited about the upcoming year, in part because of his players’ enthusiasm and also the coaching staff, which includes assistant Vicki Hamill, a former three-time all-state player at Bloomington Central who went on to become a top-10 scorer at Western Illinois.

Hamill is the director of girls basketball at Illinois Magic, and coached Marian Central the last two times the Hurricanes won a Class 3A regional title in 2008 and 2013.

“I think it’s the goal of every coach to build a program with good kids, with talented kids, and to sustain several seasons of competition,” Crabill said. “And so, that’s what we’re kind of building towards. I think we’ve got some pieces in place in order to accomplish some of those goals.”

2. Huntley: Don’t forget that Red Raiders ran through the area undefeated before falling to Oswego in the playoffs. New QB Eric Mooney brings a new dimension to the offense. Senior DEs Olalere Oladipo and Caleb Jones lead the other side of the ball.

3. Cary-Grove: This isn’t out of disrespect to the Trojans. They will control their own fate in the Fox Valley Conference early, hosting Prairie Ridge in the opener before getting Jacobs in Week 4 and Huntley in Week 5.

Player of the Year runner-up Tyler Pennington leads the Trojans in both directions.

4. Jacobs: QB Chris Katrenick, a third-year starter, will lead the way for a Jacobs team that should be a playoff contender but has a tough road starting with Huntley in Week 1.

5. Marian Central: Hurricanes had a most impressive regular season win of 2015 against state champ Nazareth. They lost a lot, but we have faith they will be ready for tough East Suburban Catholic Conference.

6. Hampshire: The Hampshire passing offense, led by senior QB Jake Vincent and WR Jared Hornbeck, will put up a ton of points.

But how good will the defense be?

7. Johnsburg: Skyhawks bring back a lot from last season, led by RB Alex Peete, lineman Joe Moore and QB Riley Buchanon.

Should be the Kishwaukee River Conference favorite in Year 1.

8. Richmond-Burton: The Rockets are the other KRC favorites in Year 1, although defending champ Marengo is an unknown, as is how the Woodstock schools fit in competitively. R-B is led by mammoth Arkansas commit Dalton Wagner on the offensive line and returns plenty offensively with QB Brady Gibson and RBs Jesse Hill-Male and Blaine Bayer. Senior TE Joey St. Pierre is 6-foot-9 and playing football for the first time since seventh grade.

9. Crystal Lake South: Senior QB Luke Nolan is back, sophomore LT Trevor Keegan and RT Dominic Collado are big and anchor the line, while RB Kyle Leva leads the way running.

10. Crystal Lake Central: The Tigers have a new look offensively with more passing for junior QB Jake Staples and are led on the line by junior Wyatt Blake and senior Dan Berg.

Austen Ferbet liked what the U.S. Military Academy had to offer and appreciated the interest Army’s football coaches showed in him since March.

Yet Ferbet did not head to West Point, New York, on a visit with his mother, Sue, on Thursday expecting to make his college commitment.

That changed once Prairie Ridge’s 6-foot-3, 230-pound senior tight end set foot on the venerable campus.

“It was breathtaking,” Ferbet said.

“I didn’t know today, coming into my visit, that I was going to commit. But, when you get on the campus, you just don’t want to leave it. There’s not a bad view you can have of the campus.”

Ferbet will get that view on a daily basis next year. He committed to Black Knights coach Jeff Monken and his staff before he left West Point. The service academies do not have tuition or athletic scholarships, so an offer means the coaching staff guarantee the athlete a roster spot.

Ferbet does most of his work in the Wolves’ option offense, which is what Army runs, as a blocker. Prairie Ridge

coach Chris Schremp and offensive coordinator Joe Terhaar visited West Point in the spring of 2015 to watch the Knights run the option.

Schremp called Army assistant offensive coach Tucker Waugh this spring about seeing Ferbet and junior quarterback Samson Evans.

“I saw their guys Austen Ferbet practice and I knew right away that Austen, physically, could match up with their tight ends, there was no doubt in my mind about it,” Schremp said.

“I definitely knew Samson could play quarterback for them. I had a nice insight to what they had. I told Coach Waugh we had a tight end and quarterback he would want to take a look at.”

Waugh visited and watched Ferbet and Evans go through training workouts, then told Schremp the Knights would want to make offers to both players, which they did. Ferbet also was considering Southern Illinois and Valparaiso.

“I learned a lot about (West Point) today,” Ferbet said. “The history and

1. Prairie Ridge: Semifinalists from last year return Northwest Herald Player of the Year Samson Evans at QB. Should be a state title contender again with two biggest challenges in first two weeks at Cary-Grove and then home against Huntley, so we’ll know early where the first four in the power rankings stand.

4 WHITE SOX 6, TIGERS 3

Finally, good news for Sox in win

Anderson hit by pitch, but X-rays of hand negative

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

DETROIT – After left-hander Zach Duke got traded Sunday, he couldn’t help but marvel what it must be like to have seen the 2016 White Sox from the outside. He closed his exit interview with Sox media with a smile, noting the bizarre stories that had been covered with two months left in the season.

There was the Drake LaRoche saga during spring training, which became a national story when his father, designated hitter Adam LaRoche, retired after being told his uniformed son couldn’t spend as much time in the clubhouse.

After a 23-10 start and the nosedive that followed, staff ace Chris Sale tore up 1970s throwback uniforms he didn’t want to wear and was sent home, missing his start against the Tigers and serving a five-game suspension. Somehow, that one topped the LaRoche debacle in kooky points.

And then this week, Charlie Tilson, the St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect acquired for Duke, tore his hamstring trying to run down a fly ball five innings into his first major league game. Tilson was the fourth Sox injured during or before his major league debut this season, which, on a probability scale, somehow tops the LaRoche-Sale incidents on a “things you’ll Tim Anderson never see again” list.

So when rookie Tim Anderson left Thursday’s 6-3 victory over the Tigers after getting hit by a pitch from righthander Jordan Zimmermann on the left hand, everyone who has followed the Sox this year feared the worst.

But, exhale, X-rays were negative, the Sox broke loose with five runs in the second inning and went on to stop the Tigers’ eight-game winning streak. For the AL Central-challenged Sox, it was their first win in 12 road games against the Tigers, Indians and Royals.

“Yeah, I didn’t have good thoughts when I heard it [hit the left side of Anderson’s left hand], the way things have been going,” manager Robin Ventura said. “When it hit him, it sounded pretty flush.”

Anderson, a former first-round-

er and one of the only Sox prospects showing much of anything, said he’ll probably miss a few days with a bruise. He was “scared” at first.

“I was relieved to get those X-Rays,’’ Anderson said, echoing sentiments of everyone in an organization that has endured a brutal couple of months.

“Yeah, I was kind of worried,” Anderson said. “But it wasn’t anything.

It got more fat than bone.”

Anderson stayed in the game but left after scoring on Justin Morneau’s sacrifice fly. In the second, the Sox clobbered Zimmerman for five more runs, including Jose Abreu’s first homer in 32 games and Avisail Garcia’s third of the series against his former team. All three for Garcia traveled more than 400 feet.

The beneficiary was the run-support-challenged Jose Quintana (9-8), who gave up a homer to the first batter he faced, Ian Kinsler, and the last, Miguel Cabrera. In between Quintana (three runs allowed) was strong.

The win halted the Sox’s skid of seven straight losses at Comerica Park and three losses overall.

At 52-56, the Sox return home for the weekend to play the Orioles before hitting the road again for a ninegame trip including series in Kansas City and Cleveland. They completed an eight-game “road” trip including two games against the Cubs at 2-6 and

Quintana called the run support “amazing,” and Ventura was looking forward to a flight home for once. The Sox have had some rough ones this year, and not because of turbulence.

“It’s nice when guys swing the bat like that and Q gets a win,” Ventura said.

SOX NOTES

Abreu relieved to end lengthy home run drought

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

DETROIT – During his 32-game stretch without a home run, Jose Abreu said he wasn’t concerned about the lack of power.

Turns out he was only hiding his frustration.

“It was always in my mind,” Abreu admitted after hitting a home run to left field against Jordan Zimmermann in the second inning of the White Sox’s 6-3 win Thursday over the Detroit Tigers. “It was a tough time for me because I never experienced something like that in my career. I was in bad stretches when I didn’t hit homers, but not like this.

“I feel relieved.”

Abreu had made 137 plate appearances since he homered on June 23 over the Green Monster at Boston’s Fenway Park. This one was his 12th, a far cry from the 36 and 30 he launched in his

first two seasons in the major leagues.

Melky Cabrera jumped on his back in the dugout and stayed there after Abreu’s first home run trot, which started with a fist pump for teammates as he rounded first.

“I was very happy, he was happy too,” Abreu said. “I was waiting for that for a long Jose Abreu time.”

“His swings today were great,” manager Robin Ventura said.

“His getting that homer was even bigger than us getting runs for [Jose Quintana],” Right on Q: Quintana’s ERA is at 2.93, even better than staff ace Chris Sale’s. In his past six starts, it’s 2.27.

“People are talking about him now.

They should have been a couple years ago,” pitching coach Don Cooper said.

“Now people are jumping on it, but he’s been good since he’s been here.

“He doesn’t stop improving. We say how can we get him better? And he finds a way.

“He’s a coach’s dream, totally prepared, works hard and when he’s all done he’s going to know he got everything out of his God-given ability.”

Quintana improved to 9-8 and likely will reach double-digit victories for the first time in his career, even though he has posted ERAs of 3.76, 3.51, 3.32 and 3.36 his first four seasons.

Eaton bats third: Adam Eaton, who has batted first or second this season, batted third for the first time in his career and went 2 for 4 with a pair of singles.

“He fancies himself a three-hole hitter, so especially the way the offense has been going, you try to mix it up enough to see if something clicks with them,” Ventura said.

“The way he swings, he’s hitting a

couple more homers than usual, and I think it’s a good spot for him.”

Look for the Sox to stay with it at least for a short time. It’s not every day they score six runs.

Lawrie’s ham-knee: Brett Lawrie, eligible to come off the disabled list this weekend, doesn’t seem close to getting back on the field soon. Lawrie is on the DL with a left hamstring strain, but his knee is an issue, as well.

“There’s fluid in there,” Ventura said. “He doesn’t feel right, and that is taking a little longer than anticipated.

It’s somewhere in the knee. I don’t know if it’s actually inside the knee but he can’t pinpoint where he’s feeling it.”

This and that: David Robertson, who gave up three homers to the Tigers last time he faced them, converted his 26th save in 30 opportunities, facing three batters in the ninth. ... DH Justin Morneau has reached base in 11 of his past 12 games.

CUBS

VIEWS Steve Greenberg since August of 2014.

Down: Kris Bryant’s power has gone missing. Well, relatively speaking. At June’s end, Bryant had 22 home runs in 298 at-bats, a rate of one launched every 13.5 at-bats. Since then, he has four homers in 103 at-bats, or one per 25.7 at-bats.

But that’s nothing compared to Bryant’s RBI drop-off – he had 60 by the end of June but has only eight since and has fallen out of the top 10 in the NL.

You’ve likely heard all about it by now: Kyle Hendricks is Cy Young at Wrigley Field and Joe Blow everywhere else.

Hendricks – can we stop referring to him as the Cubs’ No. 5 starter? – is 8-1 with a 1.19 ERA at home. He has the lowest WHIP (0.89) and the highest strikeout-to-walk ratio (4.9-to-1) on the starting staff, and has surrendered only two home runs.

Yet on the road, he’s 2-6; the ERA more than triples to 3.75. The WHIP inflates to a staff-high 1.31, and the puny 2-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio brings up the rear as well. Away from the Friendly Confines, he is indeed a No. 5.

But guess what? All the Cubs’ starters are, for the most part, hitting the road as mere shadows of their home selves.

Jason Hammel is 6-1 with a sparkling 2.24 ERA at home. Elsewhere? A more run-of-the-mill 5-4, 3.80.

John Lackey has a 2.83 home ERA. That’s why the Cubs just had to have him, right? Unfortunately, the 4.68 road ERA reads like a real disappointment.

Jon Lester’s road numbers may be skewed by one utterly atrocious outing against the Mets, but the cold, hard facts say his road ERA of 4.03 is more than twice his sweet-home 1.99.

And then there’s Jake Arrieta – 8-2 on the road, much more impressive than his 4-3 record in his own backyard.

The lone exception? Not even. Arrieta is far stingier at home, where he has a 1.71 ERA and has yet to serve up a gopher ball. His other road numbers – 3.66 ERA, eight homers allowed – are nothing special.

By itself, the Hendricks storyline is quirky. Bigger picture, the Cubs’ starting staff has a home-road story that isn’t entirely comforting.

6 RIO OLYMPICS: ANALYSIS

An acid test for Olympics’ appeal in grim world

By JOHN LEICESTER The Associated Press

RIO DE JANEIRO – Even if only for two weeks, can “Faster-Higher-Stronger” overpower deadlier, scarier and bloodier? Can the Olympic Games still offer the world momentary levity, distract from terror, shootings, poverty and other worries in globally grim times? If not, what use is the multibillion-dollar celebration of youthful endeavor and mostly niche sports?

Through no fault of their own, the athletes who will march in massed, joyful ranks behind their nations’ flags in Friday night’s opening ceremony for the first Olympic Games in South America shoulder expectations beyond their own ambitions for gold, silver, bronze and personal bests.

No Olympics in recent memory has opened under so many dark clouds, both within recession-battered Brazil and beyond. Headliners Usain Bolt and Michael Phelps are back for more medals. But no feat of theirs, or the other 10,500 Olympians, between the first medal awards Saturday and the Aug. 21 closing ceremony will paste over recent horrors of 84 people murdered with a truck in Nice or the shooting massacre of 49 people in a Florida nightclub. Sports are, and always will be, trivial compared to such atrocities that have come depressingly thick and fast of late.

“The Olympics may help me take my mind off things,” said Parisian lawyer Remy Durand, reflecting over lunch Thursday on the Champs-Elysees. “But it’s not going to change my overall mood lastingly, after the attacks in recent weeks and months in France.”

Yet Olympic organizers can’t be faulted for trying, with their “Together we can change the world” slogan and OlympicPeace hashtag. Cold War boycotts aside, the games remain a symbol of global togetherness, even if an increasingly commercialized one. By putting religion and politics aside, the Olympics still can remind the world’s people of their shared humanity, not their divisions.

Picture Berlin in 1936, when white German long jumper Luz Long bonded with black American Jesse Owens when Adolf Hitler wanted to peddle racial supremacy. Or Sydney in 2000, when athletes from North and South Korea walked together behind one flag in the opening ceremony, momentarily putting aside more than half a century of enmity. Or Barcelona in 1992, when white South African Elana Meyer ran over to plant a kiss on Ethiopia’s Derartu Tulu. Meyer had

Homes surround the Sambodromo, where an archery athlete trains Thursday ahead of the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. won silver to Tulu’s gold in the 10,000 meters to become her country’s first post-apartheid individual medalist.

On Friday, at the opening gala of these Olympics at Rio’s Maracana Stadium, 10 refugee athletes will march as one team behind the white Olympic flag – a reminder to the world that they aren’t solely defined by their lack of a place to call home. While not as grand as opening ceremonies past, Rio still expects to wow.

“The Athens ceremony was classic, and Beijing was grand, was musical.

London was quite smart. We’re going to be cool,” said creative director Fernando Meirelles.

Still, the games have their naysayers. Doping scandals – from sprinter Ben Johnson losing his 1988 Olympic gold medal over steroids to Russia’s recent state-organized subversion of anti-doping efforts – have stained all Olympians and heightened cynicism of their feats and worth.

On behalf of all of this summer’s competitors, a Brazilian athlete will pledge at the opening ceremony that they will compete “without doping and without drugs, in the true spirit of sportsmanship.” The same promise has been made at all games since 2000 but may ring false among fans, especially with Russia’s flag fluttering among the others; the International

Olympic Committee rejected calls for a blanket ban on all Russian athletes.

The IOC, as it has in the past, will store some 4,500 drug-test samples to be taken during these games, so they can be thawed out and retested in years to come.

Then there’s the expense of the games. Big spending and the waste of unused venues in ex-host cities have forced Olympic organizers onto the defensive and left them with a shrinking pool of taxpayers willing to foot the bills. The $10 billion to $12 billion spent on Rio’s games should have gone to better causes in a city rife with poverty, critics say.

After Rio, the Olympics rumble to Tokyo in 2020, leaving Rio de Janeiro’s 6.5 million people – the racially mixed, socially divided “Cariocas” – with the same concerns the world was largely oblivious to before the Olympic echo chamber turned the Zika virus and favelas into household words.

Few outside Brazil cared about untreated sewage and teeming viruses in Rio’s picture-postcard Guanabara Bay before its polluted waters were chosen for Olympic swimming and sailing. Rio’s alarming murder rate and turf wars between drug lords and police weren’t so high on the globe’s agenda before athletes and hundreds of thousands of Olympic visitors dis-

covered that the prospect of being in harm’s way has long been the darker flipside of Brazilian Samba, carnival and caipirinha cocktails.

Despite the problems, Olympic ideals aren’t dead. Pope Francis told pilgrims Wednesday at his weekly audience at the Vatican that in a world “thirsty for peace, tolerance and reconciliation,” he hopes the games can inspire everyone to pursue a prize that is “not a medal but something more precious – achieving a civilization in which solidarity reigns, founded on the recognition that we are all members of one human family.”

The U.S. women’s basketball coach, Geno Auriemma, called the Olympics “a two-week haven where people can get away from it all.”

“Every time you get here, get settled in, nothing seems to matter to any country other than the competition – as it should be,” said Auriemma, now at his third games. “These two weeks, the joy and spirit of competition seems to win out.”

And even on the streets of Rio, some Brazilians are beginning to embrace the moment and all that it means.

“Finally people are beginning to feel the Olympic spirit,” said Ilene Pessoa, a college administrator who lives in Rio’s Copacabana neighborhood.

“The eyes of the world are on us.”

The IOC set up a panel of three executive board members to review the entries and make the final call, taking into account the advice of an independent sports arbitrator.

After the review, the IOC declared in Thursday’s statement: “271 athletes will form the team entered by the Russian National Olympic Committee from the

twice for one offense. CAS said the rule “does not respect the athletes’ right of natural justice.”

IOC spokesman Mark Adams told The Associated Press: “We respect CAS and will of course follow their decision.”

The rule was part of the stricter eligibility criteria set up by the IOC in the wake of McLaren’s report, which accused the Russian sports ministry of orchestrating a doping program that involved athletes in more than two dozen summer and winter Olympic sports.

CAS said the rule goes against the IOC’s stated aim “to provide the athletes with an opportunity to rebut the presumption of guilt and to recognize the right to natural justice.”

The CAS ruling came in the cases of Russian rowers Anastasia Karabelshivo and Ivan Podshivalov, who both received two-year doping bans in 2008, and swimmer Yulia Efimova, a bronze medalist at the 2012 London Games who served a two-year ban from 2013 to ’15.

CAS rejected the athletes’ appeal to be granted direct entry into the games, saying it was now up to the international rowing and swimming federations to decide whether to let them in or not.

RIO OLYMPICS: WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Sky star Delle Donne quietly comes out in magazine story

By MARISSA PAYNE The Washington Post

Reigning WNBA MVP and U.S. Olympian Elena Delle Donne quietly came out last month when a profile published by Vogue casually mentioned her fiancee.

“Elena divides her time between traveling with her team, the Chicago Sky, and her family’s home in the rolling green land- Elena scape of Wilmington, Delle Donne Delaware. She and her fiancee, Amanda Clifton, keep apartments in both Chicago and Wilmington,” the article published in Vogue’s August issue read, according to Outsports.com.

The tidbit from the story only went viral Wednesday, however, when Chicago Tribune reporters Chris Hine and Phil Thompson realized it was the first time the Sky star publicly acknowl-

edged her love interest was a woman.

When asked about it Wednesday in Rio, Delle Donne said she decided not to “hide anything” from Vogue because of the nature of the profile.

“It was just one of those articles where they came into my home, spent a couple days with me, and Amanda is a huge part of my life,” Delle Donne said in the Tribune story. “So to leave her out wouldn’t have made any sense.”

She added: “It’s not a coming out article or anything. I’ve been with her for a very long time now and people who are close to me know that and that’s that.”

And that’s where the 26-year-old player is happy to leave it, not only because she doesn’t feel the need to be more vocal about her sexual orientation, but because she wants to protect her fiancee from public scrutiny.

“The biggest thing is respecting Amanda’s privacy …,” she told the Tribune. “She’s not on the stage, she doesn’t need to be interviewed and I don’t want her to have to feel that way.”

RIO DE JANEIRO – The IOC approved the entry of 271 Russian athletes for the Rio de Janeiro Olympics on Thursday, meaning 70 percent of the country’s original team will compete after a doping scandal that has dominated the buildup to the games.

Also Thursday, the IOC rule barring Russian athletes with prior doping sanctions from competing in the games was rejected as “unenforceable” by a sports arbitration panel, a decision that could open the door to further appeals and more Russians being entered.

The International Olympic Committee announced the go-ahead for 271 Russian athletes about 24 hours before the opening ceremony of the games. Overall, more than 100 Russians have been excluded, including 67 in track and field.

The IOC recently rejected calls from anti-doping organizations to ban Russia’s entire team after a report by a World Anti-Doping Agency investigator that detailed evidence of state-directed doping and cover-ups.

Instead, the IOC asked international

original entry list of 389 athletes.”

Russian Olympic Committee President Alexander Zhukov told reporters earlier that 271 of his country’s athletes had been cleared.

“We have good news for the fans of the Russian Olympic team,” he said.

“The majority of the sports have been admitted in full.”

“As of today,” Zhukov added, “I think there is no other team that is so clean and so carefully controlled than the Russian one.”

Several international federations announced separately Thursday that they had received the final approval for Russian entries in their events, including boxing, judo, equestrian, volleyball and golf.

Russia’s track and field team remains barred after an earlier decision by the IAAF. Only one athlete, U.S.-based long jumper Darya Klishina, was cleared by the IAAF because she had been regularly tested outside Russia.

Meanwhile, the Court of Arbitration for Sport dismissed the IOC rule that bars from the games any Russian athletes with prior doping sanctions, saying it amounts to sanctioning someone

GYMNASTICS

USA Gymnastics president Steve Penny speaks in 2014 during a news conference in Arlington, Texas. An investigation into USA Gymnastics published Thursday determined the organization collected complaints of improper conduct by more than 50 coaches between 1996 and 2006 and regularly declined to forward them on to the authorities unless expressly asked to do so, opening the door for further abuse in some cases.

The most damning incident involves a coach named William “Bill” McCabe.

According to the Star, USA Gymnastics received at least four complaints about him starting in 1998, when one gym owner warned the organization in a letter that McCabe “should be locked in a cage before someone is raped.” One of the girls whom McCabe abused was the daughter of a woman named Lisa Ganser, who filed the lawsuit against USA Gymnastics: USA Gymnastics never reported the allegations to police and, according to federal authorities, he began molesting an underage girl in 1999. McCabe continued to coach children for almost seven more years, until Lisa Ganser went to the FBI with concerns about emails to her then-11-year-old daughter. McCabe was charged with molesting gymnasts, secretly videotaping girls changing clothes and posting their naked pictures on the internet. He pleaded guilty in 2006 in Savannah, Georgia, to federal charges of sexual exploitation of children and making false statements. He is serving a 30-year sentence.

According to the Star, McCabe was

fired by a gym in Florida in 1996 after he was accused of preying on young girls. When the Florida gym’s owner, Dan Dickey, discovered that McCabe had been hired by a gym elsewhere in the state two years later, he sent USA Gymnastics the letter warning officials about him.

“Dickey’s letter, received by USA Gymnastics on Oct. 24, 1998 – and included in records in the Georgia lawsuit – described how he fired McCabe after a staff member had told him that McCabe bragged about having a 15-year-old girl in her underwear and said he thought he would be able to have sex with her soon, the Star writes.

USA Gymnastics responded with a letter saying it was “awaiting an official letter of complaint from a parent and athlete.”

The owner of the second Florida gym also sent USA Gymnastics a letter after McCabe resigned after sexual-harassment allegations in 1998, detailing reports of other gyms that had fired him and saying that parents were “appalled” that USA Gymnastics had not revoked his credentials. McCabe continued to

A stunning, detailed investigation published Thursday by the Indianapolis Star found that USA Gymnastics, the sport’s governing body in this country, did little to investigate numerous claims of sexual abuse levied against gymnastics coaches across the country, routinely dismissing the allegations as hearsay “unless they came directly from a victim or victim’s parent” because of fears the allegations would damage the reputations of the coaches in question.

This approach runs counter to best practices when dealing with reports of sexual abuse against minors and is possibly illegal, as every state in the country has a law requiring people to report suspected sexual abuse of a minor to authorities. But instead of investigating or reporting the allegations, USA Gymnastics routinely filed them away.

“USA Gymnastics would not disclose the total number of sexual misconduct allegations it receives each year. But records show the organization compiled complaint dossiers on more than 50 coaches and filed them in a drawer in its executive office in Indianapolis,” the Star’s Marisa Kwiatkowski, Mark Alesia and Tim Evans write, adding that their contents remain hidden under judicial order as a lawsuit filed by a woman whose daughter was abused by a USA Gymnastics coach winds its way through the courts.

The Star’s reporters found four instances in which USA Gymnastics did not report coaches to the authorities after receiving warnings about suspected sexual abuse. “Those coaches went on, according to police and court records, to abuse at least 14 underage gymnasts after the warnings,” the Star writes.

USA Gymnastics issued a statement after the story’s publication Thursday morning, alleging “the Star left out significant facts that would have painted a more accurate picture of our efforts” but saying the organization cannot provide specifics because of the pending lawsuit in Georgia.

“Addressing issues of sexual misconduct has been important to USA Gymnastics for many years, and the organization is committed to promoting a safe environment for its athletes,” the second statement read. “We find it appalling that anyone would exploit a young athlete or child in this manner, and recognize the effect this behavior can have on a person’s life. USA Gymnastics has been proactive in helping to educate the gymnastics community over the years, and will continue to take every punitive action available within our jurisdiction, and cooperate fully with law enforcement.”

coach, however, and USA Gymnastics renewed his membership in December 1999.

Robert Colarossi, the organization’s president at the time, admitted in a court deposition last year that USA Gymnastics dismissed the allegations against McCabe as hearsay.

McCabe continued coaching until 2006, eventually co-owning a gym in Rincon, Georgia. Ganser, the woman who has filed the lawsuit against USA Gymnastics, enrolled her daughter at the gym in 2002. Four years later, Ganser discovered disturbing emails on her 11-year-old daughter’s computer that purportedly were written by Carly Patterson, a U.S. gold medalist at the 2004 Athens Olympics.

“The exchanges started with casual gymnastics talk but escalated to sexual requests. Ganser’s daughter also received pictures of naked female body parts,” the Star writes.

Authorities say the emails were sent

by McCabe, who was pretending to be Patterson. The FBI, alerted by Ganser, also discovered that McCabe had secretly recorded videos of young gymnasts as they changed clothes and posted the videos online. Prosecutors in McCabe’s trial also said he had molested girls who were as young as fifth- or sixth-graders.

When asked by attorneys in the Ganser lawsuit why USA Gymnastics refused to investigate the claims, Steve Penny, the organization’s current president, said it was over “concern about potential danger to a coach’s reputation if an allegation proved to be false,” a practice that could deter people from reporting abuse in the future, according to experts contacted by the Star.

“And one of the most important reasons that you substantiate a claim is because the potential for, if you will allow the expression, a witch hunt, becomes very real,” Penny said in court papers uncovered by the Star. “And so it’s possible that someone may make a claim like this because they don’t like someone or because they heard a rumor or because they received information through other third parties.

“You have to take that very seriously,” Penny continued, “because the coach is as much a member as the athlete.”

Penny refused to be interviewed for the Star’s story, with USA Gymnastics issuing a statement touting its “long and proactive history of developing policy to protect its athletes” and pledging to “remain diligent in evaluating new and best practices which should be implemented.”

Shelley Haymaker, an Indiana attorney who represents victims in child-welfare cases, told the Star that USA Gymnastics’ approach “sickens” her.

10 NBA: OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER

SPORTS BRIEF

Westbrook stays, signs 3-year deal

By MURRAY EVANS The Associated Press

OKLAHOMA CITY – A month after Kevin Durant bolted for Golden State, star guard Russell Westbrook signed a contract extension to stay in Oklahoma City.

The team confirmed Thursday that Westbrook signed the extension. A person with direct knowledge of the terms said the two sides agreed on a new threeyear deal worth $85.7 million. The person spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the team did not release terms.

After the announcement, the team feted Westbrook on Thursday afternoon during an event that was part pep rally and part news conference. He exited a vehicle on a street in front of Chesapeake Energy Arena and briefly addressed a crowd of about 1,500 people outside before entering the arena lobby, where highlights of Westbrook’s eight-year career with the Thunder were played on a big screen hung from the ceiling.

Westbrook said people – specifically in the Thunder organization and generally in Oklahoma City – convinced him that staying with the only franchise he’s

Thunder guard Russell Westbrook waves as he arrives for a news conference Thursday in Oklahoma City to announce he has signed a contract extension. ever known was the correct decision.

“Me being able to come back here is a true blessing,” Westbrook said. “There is nowhere else I’d rather be than Oklahoma City. You guys have basically kind of raised me. I’ve been here since I was 18, 19 years old and you guys have done nothing but great things for me. ... I defi-

nitely wanted to have an opportunity to be loyal to you guys.”

The 27-year-old Westbrook is one of the top stars in the NBA and piled up 18 triple-doubles last season, tying Magic Johnson for the most in the past 30 years. The five-time All-Star averaged 23.5 points, 7.8 rebounds and 10.4 assists last season and helped the Thunder reach the Western Conference finals, where the lost a 3-1 series lead and fell in seven games to Golden State.

For his entire career, Westbrook had been paired with fellow superstar Durant and together they turned Oklahoma City into an NBA title contender.

The Thunder reached the conference finals four of the past six seasons, but advanced to the NBA Finals only once, falling to the Miami Heat in 2012.

Durant became a free agent at season’s end and announced July 4 that he would sign with Golden State.

Westbrook’s contract had been set to expire after next season and, after Durant’s departure – which was unexpected by Thunder fans – rumors swirled about Westbrook’s future while he publicly remained silent. Westbrook and the Thunder answered most of those rumors Thursday.

Kelly, Taylor Loupe share first-round Travelers lead

CROMWELL, Conn. – Jerry Kelly played off the emotion of what he considers a home crowd Thursday in the Travelers Championship, shooting a 6-under-par 64 for a share of the first-round lead with Vaughn Taylor and Andrew Loupe.

The 49-year-old Kelly played at the nearby University of Hartford. Headed to the PGA Tour Champions after this season, Kelly won the last of his three PGA Tour titles in 2009.

Kelly started his afternoon on the back nine at TPC River Highlands, sinking a 45-foot putt for eagle on his sixth hole of the day, the course’s signature par-4 15th. The green was redesigned as part of a $3.5 million course renovation project this year and the front left pin placement was new.

Loupe and Taylor went out early, when relatively soft greens and little wind helped the scoring.

Taylor, the 40-year-old who won for the first time since 2005 at Pebble Beach this year, strung together five consecutive birdies starting on the 12th hole and shot a 30 on the back nine.

12 BEARS TRAINING CAMP

Safety Amos eager to take next step

By ARTHUR ARKUSH

aarkush@profootballweekly.com BOURBONNAIS – Adrian Amos doesn’t view himself as the elder statesman of the safety corps – an unofficial title, after all, that technically belongs to 29-year-old Chris Prosinski, entering his sixth NFL campaign and second in Chicago.

Prosinski, however, was acquired in Week 4 last season mainly for his special teams prowess. Amos, the homegrown 23-year-old who led the Bears’ defense in playing time and tackles as a rookie fifth-round draft pick, according to coaches’ review, is the Bears’ surest thing in what’s been a perennial revolving door at safety.

“He’s just a very mature guy from the day he walked in here,” secondary coach Ed Donatell said Thursday of Amos. “He was the same guy every day, which is really hard to do when you’re transitioning in your first year.

He’s just been really solid. He had his shoulder fixed. He hung around all offseason. He’s totally committed to everything we’re doing. He’s having a good camp, too.”

Amos’ maturity is apparent. He might not consider himself the senior starting safety, but admits, “I don’t really care about being the elder or anything like that. I just make sure I’m on point with everything.”

After all the pleasantly surprising

Safety Adrian Amos enters his second NFL season after leading the Bears’ defense last season in playing time and tackles, according to coaches’ review. rookie production, Amos being sharper in Year 2 should be attainable. He actually called the January procedure to correct a college injury Amos played through his entire rookie season the highlight of his offseason.

“It’s always better when you got use of both of your arms,” Amos said with a grin, adding his shoulder was “messed up pretty bad.”

If it sounds like an excuse, howev-

er, that’s not at all his intention.

Amos is well aware he produced only one takeaway as a rookie for a defense desperate for more of them this season. He’s cognizant of those who think he might’ve fallen off late in 2015.

“I have the highest expectations for myself,” said Amos. “Whatever you’re thinking, it’s a step above that in my head. But my goal is I like to take it

short term, day by day, getting better, and then the end result, God willing, will be what I want.”

Whether the front seven reinforcements, and growing synergy with current starting strong safety Harold Jones-Quartey, help coax the end result Bears fans crave remains to be seen. But Amos likes what he’s seen so far – especially from Jones-Quartey, who flashed intriguing ball production when given his chance late as a rookie.

“It’s going really well,” said Amos of the acclimation process with Jones-Quartey. “We’re getting to know each other a little bit more.

We’re both learning every day and playing physical, knowing our assignments and being that security in the back end of the defense.

“He’s more of a rah rah, emotional guy. I’m more level. We got a good balance of that, just communicating back and forth with each other.”

It could be Jones-Quartey, or perhaps rookie Deon Bush, that winds up starting alongside Amos. Regardless, this much is sure: Chicago’s safeties are going to be young, but they should benefit from Amos’ helping hand.

“We were a good defense last year, but plays here and there, one or two a game where we’re not on the same page, kind of hurt us,” said Amos. “As long as we’re on the same page, it’ll help us moving forward.”

BEARS NOTES

‘Mild’ hamstring injury keeps Jeffery out of practice

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com BOURBONNAIS – Bears receiver Alshon Jeffery missed practice Thursday with what coach John Fox referred to as a “mild” hamstring injury.

Jeffery didn’t finish Wednesday’s practice because of muscle tightness.

“We get concerned about everybody whether they’re injured or not practicing, but on the other hand we don’t get too concerned,” Fox said. “We’ve got guys to take their place, we’ve got numbers. We’re at 89 guys right now on the offseason roster. So, it’s part of camp.”

Jeffery missed seven games last season and was limited in two others because of injuries, including a hamstring injury.

Zach Miller (concussion) and Eddie Royal (concussion) remained out

of practice, but the team did activate Amini Silatolu off the physically-unable-to-perform list. The former Panthers guard participated in his first practice as a Bear.

Derek Keaton (knee), Ben Braunecker (ankle), Nick Kwiatkoski (hamstring) and Roy Robertson-Harris (illness) did not prac- Alshon Jeffery tice.

Pernell McPhee is still on the PUP list and has yet to practice in camp.

With the preseason opener one week away, it’s doubtful he’ll be able to play.

Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio was asked about his concern over being without arguably his top player on the unit.

“It’s a concern for sure, but until I

see him out on the field, I’m really not thinking about it as much,” he said.

“You know when he gets out, you know the medical staff has to clear him first and then when he gets cleared we take over as coaches and see if he’s able to protect himself one, then two play with the kind of movement he needs to be able to play with.”

Roster moves: The Bears swapped fullbacks Thursday, releasing undrafted rookie Joe Sommers and signing veteran Darrel Young. Sommers, listed as a tight end, had been working with fullback Paul Lasike in camp.

Young, 29, spent the past six seasons in Washington, appearing in 90 games and scoring 13 touchdowns.

“He’s a guy that’s played fullback in the league, somebody we’re familiar with,” Fox said. “A guy that we had a little bit in OTAs that we had a look at,

and we decided to switch that up.”

Thursday was the first Bears practice for rookie cornerback Joel Ross.

The 5-foot-10, 190-pounder out of Appalachian State replaced Brandon Boykin on the roster. Boykin was placed on injured reserve with a torn pectoral muscle.

The Bears also signed linebacker Danny Mason and offensive lineman Garry Williams and waived Marquis Jackson (Malik’s twin brother) and waived Adrian Bellard with an injury settlement. Bellard, an undrafted rookie was carted off during Wednesday’s practice with a knee injury.

Mason spent part of the 2015 season with the Bears’ practice squad. He was waived in May. Williams appeared in 41 games with 21 starts for the Panthers from 2009 to ’14, overlapping with Fox from 2009 to ’10.
