Is there an app for too many apps?

We’ve gotten so accustomed to doing so many things on our smartphones, it’s hard to believe they’re less than 10 years old.

Making phone calls on my smartphone is maybe sixth or seventh down the list of things I use it for.

Text messages. Push notifications. Text alerts. Phone apps for media websites, sports information, social media, games.

The smartphone was supposed to simplify my life, but sometimes it seems it’s only complicated it.

The most recent trend in my world is group messaging. On Monday, I was told I needed to download the app called “Message” to keep up with everything going on with my son’s high school soccer team.

Earlier this summer, I was told I needed to download the app called “TeamSnap” to keep up with everything going on with his summer travel soccer team.

Earlier this year, I was told I needed to download the app called “GroupMe” to keep up

CLC GRAD INSPIRES LAW

DONORS TO HELP BOY SELLING STUFFED ANIMAL FOR FOOD

A new law requires colleges to change their rules to allow spring admissions for honorably discharged veterans. The law was inspired by a Crystal Lake veteran who had trouble enrolling in college after serving in the Marine Corps. See story, page A7

OUT OF OPTIONS IN HEBRON

A recall ordinance to allow voters to remove elected officials from office, aimed at Village President John Jacobson, was not on the agenda Monday at the Hebron Village Board meeting. After the meeting, Jacobson said the ordinance wasn’t discussed because it wasn’t legal. Trustee Drew Georgi said removing Jacobson from office was “in the hands of the prosecuting attorneys.”

CINCINNATI – People across the country want to help a 7-year-old Ohio boy who told a police officer he was trying to sell a stuffed animal to buy food, because he hadn’t eaten in several days.

Individuals and businesses from around the country have been asking how they can help, a spokesman for the Society of St. Vincent de Paul at St. Mary of the Assumption Church in Franklin said Monday.

Police in Franklin, between Cincinnati and Dayton, said Officer Steve Dunham found the boy in front of a drug store this month with the large stuffed animal and wearing no shoes.

“It broke my heart,” Dunham told WLWT-TV. Dunham said he took the boy to a Subway restaurant to get something to eat. “[We] said a little prayer and ate dinner together,” Dunham told the TV station.

Jacobs grad headed to Olympic steeplechase final as crowd gathers at B-Dubs

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com Seeing the parking lot at Algonquin’s Buffalo Wild Wings packed at 8 o’clock is nothing new.

But, on Monday, the lot was almost full at 8 a.m., not p.m.

The restaurant opened early to host a viewing party for the 2016 Olympic Games as Algonquin’s favorite son, Evan Jager, competed in the 3,000-meter steeplechase preliminaries from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Jager, the best steeplechaser in U.S. history, did not disappoint.

He hung with the lead pack through six laps, then took over in the last 1½ laps to win Evan Jager his heat in 8:25.86. His American teammates Donald Cabral (8:21.96) and Hillary Bor (8:25.01) will join him in Wednesday’s final race, scheduled for a 9:50 a.m. start.

Former and current Jacobs runners and local running enthusiasts enjoyed breakfast, coffee and, in some cases, Bloody Marys, while Jager, a 2007 Jacobs graduate, qualified.

“We’re very happy with the crowd for so early in the morning,” said Vicki Frantz, Buffalo Wild Wings marketing director. “We had no idea, there was no way of knowing how many would come. We were hoping to have this.”

Buffalo Wild Wings usually opens at 11 a.m., but opened at 8 Monday. It will open at 9 Wednesday for the steeplechase final.

Kyle Ross, a 2016 Jacobs graduate, will watch from West Lafayette, Indiana, on Wednesday as he starts college at Purdue. Ross was confident Jager, who owns the eight fastest steeplechase times in U.S. history, would qualify.

“I had a pretty good feeling,” Ross said. “Winning that race against a former Olympic champion (Kenya’s Brimin Kiprop Kipruto in 2008) was pretty cool to see. I’m excited for Wednesday.”

Ross, like other Jacobs runners, experienced the thrill of running with Jager, who often returns home in the fall and does workouts with the cross country team. He wore a Jager T-shirt Monday from the 2012 London Olympics that Jager autographed.

CRYSTAL LAKE

City Council set to approve 4 more video gambling licenses Members also will vote on annexing U-Haul

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Four more businesses are asking for video gambling licenses, which if approved would bring the total to six since the Crystal Lake City Council legalized it.

Council members will vote Tuesday evening whether to grant licenses to Crystal Lake Rib House, Labemi’s Tavern and Restaurant, Wings Etc. and Moe-B.-Dick’s North Shore Pub. The city last month granted the first two licenses to The Cottage and Fire Bar and Grill, several months after reversing one of McHenry County’s last video gambling bans.

Council members in April approved a compromise ordinance, with the help

of several local businesses that felt the city’s ban put them at a competitive disadvantage. The ordinance is more stringent than ones enacted in other county jurisdictions.

Businesses that serve liquor on the premises can have up to three of the machines – state law allows for five. Neither signage that advertises video gambling nor the machines themselves can be visible from the outside. The city charges establishments two annual fees totaling $1,100, and charges a permit fee of $500 a machine. Applicants for licenses also must sign an agreement promising that they will not go to court to get the city’s ordinance softened.

The original ordinance, and the first two license voters, passed 5-2, with dissent coming from two council members

opposed to the practice of video gambling.

Illinois legalized video gambling in 2009 to help generate revenue to pay off the bonds for a $31 billion capital plan, although the machines didn’t start appearing in local establishments until late 2012.

Crystal Lake, the McHenry County Board and four other local governments took advantage of an opt-out under the law and banned it. All but Lakewood have since reversed their bans.

Council members also will vote Tuesday evening as to whether to annex U-Haul Moving & Storage, 4504 Northwest Highway, into the city. The business is one of a handful of remaining pockets of unincorporated land surrounded by the city. City leaders in recent years have prioritized annexing pocket or “island” properties that are under county zoning.

The meeting starts at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall, 100 W. Woodstock St.

The Rev. Thomas Doyle will serve as interim leader

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmeda.com WOODSTOCK – Marian Central Catholic High School Superintendent Andy Edmondson was fired Friday after allegations of inappropriate conduct.

“We had been alerted of some allegations that he had engaged in verbal communication with students and faculty that was inconsistent with professional standards at Marian,” said Penny Wiegert, director of communications for the Diocese of Rockford.

Wiegert declined to comment on the specifics of what was allegedly said.

Woodstock, where Marian Central Catholic High School is located, is part of the Rockford Diocese district. The school had 689 students in the 2015-16 school year, and 17 Catholic parishes in McHen-

“We had been alerted of some allegations that he had engaged in verbal communication with students and faculty that was inconsistent with professional standards at Marian.”

Penny Wiegert

Diocese of Rockford communications director ry County contribute funding to the institution, according to its website.

Edmondson began as superintendent of the school in July 2015. He had previously held the same role at Newman Central Catholic High School in Sterling.

Edmondson declined to comment Monday. Marian officials also did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment.

Rev. Thomas Doyle, Marian’s spiritual director and assistant principal, will hold the role of interim superintendent until someone else is hired, Wiegert said. Doyle was ordained in 2008 and has worked at the high school for seven years.

The search could take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months, Wiegert said.

“We hope that it will be a couple of weeks,” she said. “But that’s just an estimate. We have to have time to interview all the candidates, whoever they may be.”

Hebron Village Board decides not to consider recall ordinance Faction hoping to oust John Jacobson after cocaine arrest out of legal options

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com HEBRON – A recall ordinance that would allow for voters to remove elected officials from office was not on the agenda Monday at the Hebron Village Board meeting.

Trustee Drew Georgi proposed the ordinance at the July 18 Village Board meeting, and Village Attorney Michael Smoron questioned whether a nonhome rule municipality had the power to create such an ordinance.

After Monday’s meeting, Village President John Jacobson said the ordinance wasn’t discussed because it wasn’t legal, and “nobody else on the board wanted to talk about it.”

This was the fifth Village Board meeting Jacobson held since his March 22 arrest when police said they found cocaine, drug paraphernalia and a shotgun and ammunition in his home.

There was no mention at Monday’s

meeting from trustees, village staff or members of the public about Jacobson’s legal situation or the recall ordinance.

Discussion at the meeting, which lastJohn ed about an hour and Jacobson 10 minutes, focused on yard waste removal service, water tower cleaning, an upgrade of village cellphones and a business owner’s concerns.

“We’ve ran our legal gambit here,” Georgi said after the meeting regarding removing Jacobson from office. “At this point, it’s in the hands of the prosecuting attorneys.”

In April, more than 200 residents signed a petition asking Jacobson to resign.

Ken Menzel, general counsel with the Illinois State Board of Elections, has said an elected official cannot be forced out of office – he or she must be

“I want everybody in the state to be able to put a petition together and recall if they want to, no matter how many people live in their area or not.”

Drew Georgi

Hebron village trustee convicted of a felony, move out of town or resign.

And according to legal experts, Jacobson could have his drug possession charges dismissed because the evidence used against him was obtained during a reported overdose.

Georgi, who is running for a McHenry County Board seat in District 6, said he is working on finding a way to have a recall ordinance for the state of Illinois so any municipality could remove someone such as Jacobson from office.

“I want everybody in the state to be able to put a petition together and recall if they want to, no matter how many people live in their area or not,” Georgi said.

Park district looks to rebuild Indian Oaks playground, improve finances

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com MARENGO – Marengo Park District officials are looking to raise about $35,000 to rebuild a playground that was taken down in Indian Oaks Park this summer after being deemed unsafe.

Tearing down the 20-year-old-plus playground was the last of the projects the park district was mandated to complete after it was cited by the district’s risk management agency a couple years ago, Manager of Park Operations Joe Vallez said.

Since then, the district also has removed a skate park and closed the pool.

During a presentation last Monday to the Marengo City Council, Vallez asked for support in fundraising efforts for the new playground, and for the park district as it tries to recover from years of public distrust and finan-

“Moving forward, what we would like from the City Council is for you to be a partner with us in this initiative to replace this playground. Putting aside egos, putting aside past relationships, past problems and really putting in the forefront what’s best for the kids in the town, and what’s best for the town.”

“Moving forward, what we would like from the City Council is for you to be a partner with us in this initiative to replace this playground,” Vallez said.

“Putting aside egos, putting aside past relationships, past problems and really putting in the forefront what’s best for the kids in the town, and what’s best for the town.”

Vallez, who is the full-time park director at the North Berwyn Park Dis-

trict, started part time with Marengo Park District in 2014, when he said the district was experiencing significant financial problems.

In the last two years, the park district has cut its staff in half, and cut its annual budget by about $100,000, Vallez said. The city and park district are separate taxing bodies.

Christian music simply wouldn’t be what it is today if not for the countless contributions made by Smith. In a career that has lasted three decades, Smith has recorded many unforgettable songs, including “Friends,” which was named the No. 1 song of all time by CCM Magazine and “Healing Rain,” a powerful anthem that’s

loved by millions of fans. Perhaps Smith will treat fans to performances of those two songs as well as many others, including songs from his latest album, and his newest song, “He Will Never End.” He’ll certainly provide an inspirational live performance that will remain ingrained in you for many years to come.

Smith recorded his most recent worship album, “Sovereign” in 2014, which was his first since 2008. The first single, “You Won’t Let Go” has been greeted with enormous success and become a staple in Smith’s live performances.

On his website, Smith discussed his latest record and his state as a recording artist and live performer. “I’m pretty passionate,” he said. “I have lots of energy and I’m probably enjoying making music more than I ever have in my entire life. I’m having fun and I’m excited about this record and this next chapter.”

• JAGER

Evan Jager’s likeness is printed on commemorative T-shirts at the watch party Monday at Buffalo Wild Wings in Algonquin.

Jager finished first in the second preliminary heat of the Olympic 3,000-meter steeplechase to qualify for the Olympic final Wednesday.

Continued from page A3 “To actually do something I love with a guy who does it at such a high level is an unbelievable experience,” Ross said. “He is so down-to-earth, he’s an Olympian, but he talks to you like he just graduated Jacobs, like he’s still one of our teammates. He’s a great guy, and I’m very excited.”

Jager is trying to become the first U.S. steeplechaser to earn an Olympic medal since Brian Diemer took bronze in 1984.

Stephanie Peisker, a teacher in Schaumburg, saw Jager run in high school meets while she was running for Crystal Lake Central.

“You never know how far talent can take someone, but he was definitely a step above everyone else,” said Peisker, a 2009 Central graduate. “I wasn’t really surprised that he made it that far. He always ran really confident, but he was always humble after the races. He always congratulated all the other runners in the area. It was amazing to watch him; I’m glad I had the opportunity.”

The viewing party even drew people from outside the area. Michael Newman, the editor of dyestatil.com, a running website, came from Lombard to watch.

“I got here and thought, ‘Oh, my

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@ shawmedia.com

gosh, there’s a lot of cars here,’ ” Newman said. “It will be worse Wednesday, but worse is better. Everybody cheering at the end, survive and advance.

It’s going to be crazy Wednesday, because he has a really good chance to medal. He hasn’t raced a lot this year, but the workouts he’s done, he’s ready to go.”

Nancy Arndt was part of a group of women selling “Team Evan Jager”

T-shirts for $20 each. The shirts are black, with Jager’s likeness hurdling a barrier on the front and his face on the back. They ran out of XL sizes, but are trying to get more printed for Wednesday.

Arndt’s son, David, was a high school teammate with Jager and part of the Golden Eagles’ 4x800 relay team that set the state record in 2006. Aaron Russo and Mike Connolly also ran

on that team. Sandburg’s 4x800 team broke their record in May. “(Jager) has been an inspiration to so many guys, and girls too, in their running careers,” Arndt said. “He’s such an easy young man to support because of who he is, his humility, his focus, his good-naturedness. He’s such a wonderful young man. It’s going to be crazy here on Wednesday. We’re just pumped.”

Character actor Fyvush Finkel dead at 93

• OBITUARIES

Continued from page A9

By MARK KENNEDY

BUDDY R. VESSELS JR.

The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Actor Fyvush Finkel, the plastic-faced Emmy Award-winning character actor whose career in stage and screen started in Yiddish theater and led to memorable roles in “Fiddler on the Roof” on Broadway and on TV in “Boston Public” and “Picket Fences” has died, his son said Monday.

He was 93.

Finkel, who was known for his mischievous smile and an ability to prop his ears at an angle for optimum comic effect, died early Sunday in Manhattan, said his son, Ian. He said his father had suffered heart problems for months.

He was a comedian, a singer, a stage actor, a film actor and a noted TV performer, from “Fantasy Island” to “Blue Bloods.” He celebrated his 80th birthday on the set of “Boston Public,” playing history teacher Harvey Lipschultz.

“He did everything,” Ian Finkel said. “That seems to be a trait of the oldtime performers. They could all sing and dance and act and everything. It’s so wonderful.”

Finkel’s long career began at age 9 in 1930 when a production in his Brooklyn neighborhood was looking for a boy to sing “Oh, Promise Me.” Recalled Finkel in a 2002 interview: “I stopped that show cold. They gave me a dollar a night.”

In the vibrant Yiddish theater of the period, a solid performer could find steady work. Finkel studied singing, dancing and acting at a $1-a-week school. But his parents insisted he learn a trade just in case showbiz didn’t pan out.

A stint as a furrier was over quick.

“I ruined about $500 worth of material,” he said.

He found himself back onstage when his new, mature voice settled in. He took a job with Yiddish theater in Pittsburgh just shy of his 18th birthday. “I thought, ‘This is where I belong.’ And I’ve been in the theater ever since.”

Born: July 13, 1961; in Eldorado, IL Died: Aug. 11, 2016; in Crystal Lake, IL Buddy R. Vessels Jr., age 55, of Crystal Lake, IL, passed away in his home.

Buddy is preceded by his parents, Jessie and Buddy Vessels, Sr.; and his sister, Vickie Schultz.

He is survived by his two daughters, Tonya (Billy) Buntin and Stephanie Crews; four grandsons, Jacob Winsauer, Caleb Wright, Ricky Crews and Ayden Spicer; and four siblings, John (Ann) Vessels, Sharon Bank, Becky Podhorsky and James (Dawn) Vessels.

Funeral services will be from 3 to 7 p.m.

Wednesday, Aug. 17, at Willow Funeral Home, 1415 W. Algonquin Road, Algonquin. 847-458-1700.

Born: Feb. 26, 1936; Elmira, NY Died: Aug. 11, 2016; in Barrington, IL AP file photo

Fyvush Finkel is seen in 1996 in the heart of New York’s theater district. Finkel, the plastic-faced character actor whose career in stage and screen started in Yiddish theater and led to memorable roles in “Fiddler on the Roof” on Broadway and on TV in “Boston Public,” died Sunday. He was 93.

In 1964, as Yiddish theater was dying, he was hired for the touring company of the Broadway hit “Fiddler on the Roof.” He later said: “I went to do ‘Fiddler’ for less money than I was getting in Yiddish theater, but I had to make the move. And it was the best move I ever made.”

In “Fiddler on the Roof,” he played Mordcha, and he took on the role of Tevye the milkman in a national touring production in 1981. In his last appearance on Broadway in 1989’s “Cafe Crown,” Finkel earned a Drama Desk Award nomination.

At age 60, after 12 years with various productions of “Fiddler on the Roof,” he was cast in the off-Broadway musical “Little Shop of Horrors.” That opened

up movies and TV for him, including “Brighton Beach Memoirs” (1986), “Q&A” (1990) and “Nixon” (1995).

“If you retire, you shrivel up. No doubt about it,” he said in 2002.

Finkel won a supporting actor Emmy in 1994 for playing Douglas Wambaugh on “Picket Fences” – he was also nominated the year before – and earned a Golden Globe nomination for the role in 1995. He also earned three Screen Actor Guild Awards, one for “Nixon” and two for “Picket Fences.”

Finkel was married to Trudi Lieberman for 61 years until her death in 2008.

His survivors include his two sons: Ian, a musical arranger and xylophone virtuoso, and Elliot, a concert pianist; and five grandchildren.

Fair workers paid $1.5M for last year’s event The ASSOCIATED PRESS

SPRINGFIELD – The stopgap budget that’s keeping Illinois finances flowing has helped this year’s Illinois State Fair workers after many were left unpaid last year.

The Chicago Tribune reported that the $1.5 million in payments started coming in shortly before this year’s fair started last week and as Gov. Bruce Rauner tries to put a greater emphasis on the annual agriculture celebration.

Last year, more than 850 vendors who do tasks such as providing first aid, judging sheep shearing, shooting off fireworks and running the tractor pull contest weren’t paid. The stopgap budget means vendors are scheduled to be paid on time this year.

News from across the state No decision yet in Illinois’ transgender bathroom case

CHICAGO – A federal magistrate judge said Monday that he will not immediately rule on a dispute at a suburban Chicago school district over transgender student access to girls’ locker rooms and restrooms.

Although the timeline is unclear, U.S. Magistrate Judge Jeffrey Gilbert said he will eventually issue a report with his recommendation on an injunction to U.S. District Judge Jorge Alonso.

The conservative group Students and Parents for Privacy filed a lawsuit on behalf of dozens of parents with links to Palatine-based Township High School District 211. The lawsuit argues federal authorities forced the district to adopt a policy that tramples on the privacy rights of other students.

A transgender student at William

Fremd High School in Palatine drew attention to the issue in November when she complained to the U.S. Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights that she was denied access to facilities for the gender she identifies with. In response, federal authorities found the school district in violation of Title IX, the federal law that bans discrimination based on gender.

The district in December allowed the student access to restrooms and locker rooms to settle the complaint. The settlement allowed the district to keep millions in federal funding and forgo possible legal action.

Trooper’s vehicle strikes, kills man on highway

EAST PEORIA – Authorities said an Illinois State trooper’s vehicle struck and killed a Freeport man who was walking in the middle of a highway in East Peoria.

Illinois State Police said the incident happened early Saturday on Route 116.

The Tazewell County Coroner’s Office identified the man as 44-year-old Jarett J. Simons of Freeport.

Authorities said a preliminary inves-

tigation found the trooper was driving in the left lane when the vehicle struck Simons. The highway isn’t illuminated in that area.

Officials said the trooper didn’t have time to react before the vehicle struck Simons. The trooper wasn’t hurt. He wasn’t identified.

Simons’ brother, Greg Simons, said he last saw Jarett Simons on Thursday and didn’t know why he was in East Peoria.

The case is under investigation.

Illinois crew battles forest fires in Idaho, Oregon

WILMINGTON – A northern Illinois firefighting crew that was deployed to fight a blaze in the Boise National Forest has now moved to work on a fire in Oregon.

The Midewin Interagency Hotshot Crew is on its eighth two-week assignment this year. The fire near Burns, Oregon, will be the group’s last mission for 2016.

The 20-person crew uses helicopter operations, chain saws, pumps and engines to fight fires. They have battled blazes already this season in Montana and Arizona.

year dropped to more than 411,500, nearly half of what it was the year before. Fair officials said past numbers were inflated, noting that parking and gate revenues were down just $55,000 from 2014.

Illinois Department of Agriculture Director Phil Nelson and Illinois State Fair chief Patrick Buchen resigned just a month after last year’s fair. Buchen said they were forced out after pushing back against the Rauner administration’s interference. The governor’s office accused Buchen of “erratic behavior.”

The governor is hoping to turn things around at this year’s fair. New management is in place and is taking steps with the hope of generating more money.

Fairgoers were asked to pay $5 for admission to preview night, which used to be free. The move is expected to raise $100,000 alone.

Admission for the rest of the fair was raised to $10 a day, up from $7, with children 12 and under allowed to enter for free. Parking also increased to $10 on Fridays and Saturdays and $5 on other days of the week.

The group is hosted by the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie in Wilmington, located about 60 miles southwest of Chicago. The team is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Crew members typically work 16-hour days while on assignment, returning home for two days off before heading back to work.

E. St. Louis school replaces windows after vandalism

EAST ST. LOUIS – A Catholic school in East St. Louis has raised $100,000 to replace windows that were broken by vandals a year ago.

The Belleville News-Democrat reported that Sister Thea Bowman Catholic School raised the money after windows were broken in the science and computer labs.

School officials said the new windows will provide more security, be energy efficient and provide shade control.

Roberta Trost is a director at the school.

Trost said the school also is raising money to replace all the other windows at the school.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Biden: Trump ‘thoroughly witnesses about the chain-reacunqualified’ for presidency tion scare that rippled through

SCRANTON, Pa. – Vice President Joe Biden assailed Donald Trump’s ability to lead America at home and abroad on Monday, branding him as indifferent to the needs of Americans in his first campaign appearance with Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

Biden, who decided not to make a third presidential bid last year, said in his native city of Scranton that Trump was “totally, thoroughly unqualified” to be president, calling him a dangerous voice on national security and foreign policy.

On the economy, he said, Trump’s reveling in his TV reality show tag line, “You’re fired,” showed his true colors.

“He’s trying to tell us he cares about the middle class? Give me a break. It’s such a bunch of malarkey,” Biden told a crowd of about 3,000 at Riverfront Sports, adding: “He doesn’t have a clue.”

Did Bolt’s Olympic dash trigger JFK airport scare?

NEW YORK – Did boisterous celebrations over an Olympic victory by the world’s fastest man lead to a false alarm about gunfire and a panicked evacuation of Kennedy Airport?

That’s one of the possibilities police were exploring Monday as they reviewed security camera footage and interview

two airport terminals Sunday night in the minutes after Usain Bolt sprinted to a gold medal victory in the 100-meter dash.

An internal New York Police Department briefing document, obtained by The Associated Press, said a preliminary video review showed that some travelers had started to act “extremely disruptive” while watching the Olympics on televisions in Terminal 8.

That set off a chain reaction, with other people running away from the commotion, the document said.

Bill Cosby’s attempt to reseal testimony rejected

PHILADELPHIA– A federal appeals court on Monday rejected Bill Cosby’s effort to reseal his deposition testimony about extramarital affairs, prescription sedatives and payments to women, saying the documents are now a matter of public knowledge.

The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia ruled that the comedian’s appeal was moot.

“The contents of the documents are a matter of public knowledge, and we cannot pretend that we could change that fact by ordering them resealed,” the court wrote in an opinion.

Trump wants ‘extreme vetting’ of immigrants

By JILL COLVIN and JULIE PACE The Associated Press

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – Donald Trump on Monday called for “extreme” ideological vetting of immigrants seeking admission to the U.S., vowing to significantly overhaul the country’s screening process and block those who sympathize with extremist groups or don’t embrace American values.

“Those who do not believe in our Constitution, or who support bigotry and hatred, will not be admitted for immigration into our country,” Trump said in a foreign policy address in Youngstown, Ohio.

“Only those who we expect to flourish in our country – and to embrace a tolerant American society – should be issued visas.”

Trump’s proposals were the latest version of a policy that began with his unprecedented call to temporarily bar foreign Muslims from entering the country – a religious test that was criticized across party lines as un-American.

The Republican nominee has made stricter immigration measures a central part of his proposals for defeating the Islamic State, a battle he said Monday is akin to the Cold War struggle against communism. He called for parents, teachers and others to promote “American culture” and encouraged “assimilation.”

Trump’s address comes during a trying stretch for his presidential campaign. He’s struggled to stay on message and build a consistent case against Democrat Hillary Clinton, repeatedly roiling the White House race with provocative comments that have deeply frustrated many in his own party.

Clinton has seized on Republican concerns about Trump, highlighting the steady stream of GOP national security experts who say their party’s nominee is unfit to

She kept up that argument Monday as she campaigned alongside Vice President Joe Biden in Scranton, Pennsylvania, a working class area where both have family ties.

Biden called Trump’s views “dangerous” and “un-American.” He warned that Trump’s false assertions last week about President Barack Obama founding the Islamic State could be used by extremists to target American service members in Iraq.

“The threat to their life has gone up a couple clicks,” Biden said.

Trump has since said he was being sarcastic in accusing Obama of founding IS. Still, he directly blamed the president and Clinton, who served as secretary of state, for backing policies that “unleashed” the group, including withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq in late 2011.

He also challenged Clinton’s fitness to be president, declaring she lacks the “mental and physical stamina” to take on the Islamic State.

Trump was vague about what he would do differently to decimate IS in its strongholds in Iraq and Syria. He vowed to partner with any country that shares his goal of defeating the extremist group, regardless of other strategic

disagreements, and named Russia as a nation he would like to improve relations with.

Russia and the U.S. have been discussing greater coordination in Syria, where IS is part of a volatile mix of groups fighting for power. But they have been unable to reach an agreement on which militant groups could be targeted.

Trump also vowed to end “our current strategy of nation-building and regime change” – a criticism that extends to policies of both parties. He panned the long, expensive Iraq War started under Republican President George W. Bush, as well as Obama’s calls for new leadership in some Middle East countries during the pro-democracy Arab Spring uprisings.

Obama has held up Bush’s years-long commitment to setting up and securing a new government in Iraq after the initial invasion as a reason to avoid U.S. military intervention in countries like Syria.

Trump’s most specific anti-Islamic State proposals centered on keeping those seeking to carry out attacks in the West from entering the U.S. He said attacks involving “immigrants or the children of immigrants” underscore the need to implement “extreme vetting.”

Milwaukee chief surprised by violence Unrest erupted after black man was fatally shot by black officer

By TODD RICHMOND The Associated Press

MILWAUKEE – After a night of violence that left half a dozen businesses in flames, the Milwaukee police chief expressed surprise at the level of unrest that erupted after the fatal shooting of a black man by a black officer.

“This was, quite frankly, unanticipated,” Chief Edward Flynn said Monday, two days after the worst of the rioting hit the Sherman Park neighborhood on the city’s economically depressed and largely black north side.

The chief’s statement raised questions about whether authorities could have taken steps to curb the violence, perhaps by sharing details of the shooting earlier, including the officer’s race or footage from his body camera.

Randolph McLaughlin, a Pace University law professor and a civilrights attorney, questioned how Milwaukee leaders could have expected the streets to stay quiet on Saturday night given the national debate about law enforcement and race.

“For a mayor to say everything’s fine (and) we just killed somebody, that’s turning a blind eye to his town,” McLaughlin said.

He said Mayor Tom Barrett should have reached out to residents and community leaders and asked, “What do we need to do to make sure your community is safe?” McLaughlin said.

“He needs to stay on the job.”

David Klinger, a University of Missouri-St. Louis sociology professor who studies police use of deadly force, said it would not necessarily have helped for police to release the officer’s race sooner. He pointed out that the city saw disruptions on Sunday night, after his race had been publicized, although the intensity was less than the previous night.

He also said the city may have hesitated to give the officer’s race sooner for fear it would identify him.

Remy Cross, a criminologist at Webster University in St. Louis, said the officer’s race probably does not matter to many people in the community.

“They see the institution as racist, not the individual,” Cross said. “Once you put on the uniform, you’re blue, and blue sees black as bad.”

Flynn said it was “an error in narrative to assume” that because police

People protest and block traffic Sunday in Milwaukee. Police said one person was shot at a Milwaukee protest Sunday evening, and officers used an armored vehicle to retrieve the injured victim during a second night of unrest over the police shooting of a black man, but there was no repeat of widespread destruction of property. shot someone that the shooting will be controversial “so let’s have a riot.”

Cecil Brewer, 67, who owns an apartment house directly across from the intersection where protesters burned a gas station on Saturday night and hurled rocks at police on Sunday night, said the rioting was all but inevitable.

“There’s so much anger in these kids,” Brewer said. The shooting “was like a spark in a powder keg. It doesn’t matter to them if what the authorities are saying is true.”

On Monday, the mayor issued a proclamation applying the city’s curfew to 17-year-olds. Until then, it had applied to teenagers 16 or younger.

Barrett also moved the summer curfew back by one hour, to 10 p.m., and warned that the rule would be enforced more tightly.

The problems began Saturday afternoon when police stopped a rental car that was driving suspiciously, Flynn said. Sylville Smith bolted from the car with a gun, leading an officer on a short foot chase before the officer shot the 23-year-old. Police said the man was fleeing a traffic stop but released few other details.

The violence erupted later that evening.

During a news conference around

midnight calling for calm, Barrett said people were gathering at the scene when he left at 5 p.m. Saturday, but they were peaceful and he thought everything was under control.

At another news conference Sunday afternoon, Flynn offered new details, revealing that the officer who opened fire was black, like Smith, and said body-camera video showed Smith had turned toward the officer and refused to drop his weapon. He also said the officer shot Smith in the chest and arm. Some people interviewed on the north side had speculated that Smith was shot in the back.

The body-camera footage has not been released. It’s in the custody of the state Justice Department, which is leading the investigation into the shooting.

Flynn activated the department’s 150-member crowd-control team on Sunday night, and Gov. Scott Walker put the National Guard on standby if needed. Hundreds of people gathered near the scene of the shooting that evening, but remained peaceful. Most of them eventually dispersed.

Around 10:30 p.m., however, a group of perhaps 100 demonstrators began marching through the streets, eventually blocking an intersection next to a BP gas station that burned

down the night before. They threw bottles, chunks of concrete and rocks at officers. Dozens of officers arrived and forced the group down the street.

Seven officers were injured and 14 people were arrested by the time it was over. An 18-year-old was shot near the intersection. Police had to use an armored vehicle to rescue him.

He was taken to a hospital, but Flynn said his life was not in danger.

Smith’s death was just the latest in a string of shootings involving police and black men to spark demonstrations and protests.

In Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where 37-year-old Alton Sterling was fatally shot in July during a struggle with two white police officers, protests largely dissipated after three law enforcement officers were killed in a shooting attack that appeared to target police.

Demonstrations also unfolded after 32-year-old Philando Castile was shot and killed in suburban St. Paul, Minnesota, during a traffic stop by a Latino police officer. Those protests dwindled in the ensuing weeks.

Last year, the state Justice Department agreed to review Milwaukee police procedures after a white officer shot Dontre Hamilton, a mentally ill black man, in a downtown park during a scuffle.

OROFACIAL MYOFUNCTIONAL DISORDERS

SPONSORED BY

CORRECT SWALLOWING DEPENDS ON A PROPER RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MUSCLES OF THE FACE, TONGUE AND THROAT Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders (OMD) are disorders of the muscles and functions of the face and mouth.

The position of the tongue is one of the most important factors in facial skeletal, jaw and dental development. OMD may affect, directly and/or indirectly chewing, speech, swallowing, dental jaw growth, TMJ, cosmetics, infant feeding (sucking patterns) and facial skeletal growth and development. OMD’s can affect many aspects of health from breathing/airway constriction, GERD, digestion problems, sleep disorders, headaches and TMJ - just to name a few! OMD’s can also affect the stability of orthodontic results So what do we do?

OROFACIAL MYOFUNCTIONAL THERAPY (OMT), is a series of therapeutic exercises to address your specific myofunctional disorder. Teaching a person the proper swallow can reinforce dental jaw and teeth relationships.

Some common problems that are associated with these dysfunctional muscle patterns (OMD’s), such as: -Crooked teeth or orthodontic relapse -Breathing disorders, including mouth breathing

-Loud and/or messy chewing and eating habits -Forward head posture -Headaches -Digestive problems and upset stomach (eg. from air swallowing, acid reflux) -Ankyloglossia, or tongue-tie -TMJ (jaw joint) pain -Drooling (day or during sleep) -Gum disease -Attention/behavioral issues (ADD or ADHD) -Failure to thrive -Middle ear drainage issues -Grinding or clenching of the teeth -Oral lesions from tongue irritation or cheek biting These orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMD’s) may have a negative effect on the development of the dentition, particularly eruption patterns and/or alignment of the teeth and jaws, and may also contribute to the development of a malocclusion. In some cases, abnormal and/or inadequate jaw growth may occur. OMD’s may also cause cosmetic problems, as well.

The goal of Oral Myofunctional therapy is to eliminate the dysfunctional habit and/or pattern(s), establish nasal breathing, correct resting postures of the mouth and facial muscles, and correct dysfunctional swallowing patterns.

Correcting muscle function while a person is still growing and developing encourages proper bone and dental development, making early identification optimal.

RIO DE JANEIRO – Each morning, 75-year-old Jose Rebamar works his biceps, triceps and quadriceps with stone weights at an outside gym that looks out on Rio de Janeiro’s iconic Sugarloaf Mountain.

Living in a city of near daily sunshine and warm weather, the ex-Brazilian Navy sailor says there is no excuse to ever slow down. And having the Olympics in town provides even more incentive to stay in shape. Rebamar has been watching the games on television every night.

“If I don’t work out one day, I feel like I didn’t do anything, like the day didn’t happen,” he said, interspersing barbell sets with yoga-like stretches.

Visitors to South America’s first Olympic games are getting an eyeful of the beauty- and fitness-obsessed culture that is synonymous with Rio, a land of muscle-taxing samba dancing, acrobatic capoeira martial arts and dental floss bikinis and Speedos that reveal more than they conceal. Remember it was Brazil that gave birth to the “Brazilian bikini wax” and even the “Brazilian Butt Lift,” a type of plastic surgery that aims to put a little more

famous to get work done, carried the Olympic flame on the games’ opening day that later lit the cauldron at Maracana Stadium. The next day he died of a heart attack at 93, and Brazilian broadcasters cut away from competition coverage for hours to focus on the life of one of the country’s most important personalities.

Or this: Supermodel Gisele Bundchen was a headliner at the opening ceremony, swaggering to “The Girl from Ipanema,” the famous Brazilian song that, you guessed it, is about falling in love with a beautiful girl at the beach.

Away from the venues, there is plenty to gawk at.

On Copacabana Beach, men with muscles out of an anatomy book play pickup soccer games while women sunbathe the way a rotary chicken gets cooked: methodically rotating around.

In neighborhoods like Leblon, Rio’s most expensive locale, men and women draped in designer threads strut around as if they were heading to a Vogue cover shoot.

“I think I need to get into the gym,” joked Ed Bai, a 48-year-old physical education teacher from Los Angeles, branding the beach scene in Rio “incredible.”

Many also are returning to area bus stops.

That means morning and afternoon commuters must be especially cautious. It’s a change in your driving routine and habits, and an abundance of caution is recommended.

Remember there will be plenty of children – including younger ones – crossing streets and gathering at a neighborhood street corner near your driving route, which has been less crowded for the past couple of months.

Children, of course, don’t always make the best decisions. They are more apt to run inattentively into the street and without notice. Children also are smaller, so they can’t be seen as easily.

Remember that while near bus stops and in school zones. Remember, too, it’s against the law to talk on a cell phone while driving in Illinois.

We’re going to repeat that: stay off your cell phone while driving anyway, but especially while you’re in a school zone. Even if it’s hands-free, that call can wait while you’re driving in a school zone.

And remember it’s against the law to pass a school bus that is stopped at drop-off or pickup locations. If you see the retractable stop sign sticking out from the school bus in front of you, please stop and wait for the arm to retract before hitting the gas pedal.

Buses need more time to come to a complete stop, so don’t follow too closely.

Of course, these are common-sense warnings.

You’ve probably heard them before. Most people follow them as a part of their regular driving routine. But it’s important that everyone follow through.

We want a safe school year for students and motorists.

ANOTHER VIEW

Clinton’s porous ethical wall In another election year with an opponent who is not so obviously unqualified, last week’s revelations about connections between Hillary Clinton’s State Department and the Clinton Foundation would have been bigger news. Although it is an exaggeration to claim Clinton ran her agency as a pay-to-play operation, the latest unearthed emails from the Clinton State Department nevertheless reveal the ethical wall she was supposed to have built between herself and her family’s organization was not impermeable enough.

Two email conversations revealed by the conservative activist organization Judicial Watch show staff on both sides of that wall were in contact. Both conversations involved Douglas J. Band, head of the Clinton Global Initiative in 2009, when the emails were written, and top Clinton aides. In the most concerning, Band pressed Clinton confidantes Huma Abedin and Cheryl D. Mills to connect Gilbert Chagoury, a major Clinton Foun-

dation donor, with a senior State Department official. Chagoury said no meeting took place and he just wanted to pass information about the political situation in his native Lebanon to the relevant diplomatic official.

Still, Abedin responded encouragingly to Band’s request.

Clinton was not personally involved, but her top surrogates were. Offering access, even just for sharing information, is providing a favor. The Clinton Foundation, although a nonprofit organization, is a piece of the Clintons’ legacy they care deeply about and is essential to their high-flying lifestyle. It does not matter that Band may have been acting as a “personal aide” to former president Bill Clinton rather than as a Clinton Foundation official, as the campaign now claims. That the Clintons allowed such distinctions to become blurred is part of the problem. Abedin, in fact, worked for the Clinton Foundation while she also was working at the State Department.

The behavior depicted in the latest emails does not appear to have significantly harmed the conduct of U.S. diplomacy, distracted from Clinton’s performance or even, given the evidence available, been particularly frequent. It certainly is not enough to launch a criminal investigation. As political scandals go, this is middling, at best.

But it suggests some donors to the Clinton Foundation may have seen their gifts as means to buy access – and it points to much bigger potential problems.

Should Clinton win in November, she will bring to the Oval Office a web of connections and potential conflicts of interest, developed over decades in private, public and, in the case of her family’s philanthropic work, quasi-public activities. As secretary, she pledged to keep her official world and her family’s foundation separate, and she failed to keep them separate enough. Such sloppiness would not be acceptable in the White House.

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 Rich Miller limits petition. Go to FixIllinois. com.”

Yes, the issue is pretty much solely political and more than a bit phony. Even if the legislature passed a term limits proposal this November (and it won’t), the limits wouldn’t actually get in front of voters for two more years and then wouldn’t start limiting terms for another 10 years. By that time, House Speaker Madigan will be 86 years old, and he could still run for a state Senate seat.

But, hey, the House Democrats are notorious for using federal issues such as Medicare and Social Security in state legislative races, so, whatever. It is what it is.

Rauner’s group also paid $130,820 for St. Louis broadcast television, even though most of those viewers live in Missouri. Illinois candidates often skip St. Louis broadcast entirely or wait until late in the game to air any ads because they aren’t very cost efficient. You always know somebody has big bucks to throw around when they go up on St. Louis TV, and it’s practically unheard of in early August.

The Rauner organization also plunked down $32K for broadcast ads in the Champaign-Springfield-Decatur market; $73K in the Quad Cities (where Democratic Rep. Mike Smiddy is attempting to hold onto his seat); $57K in the already crowded (with state legislative ads) Paducah, Kentucky, market; $21K in Quincy and $25K in Peoria.

In addition, Rauner has dumped $207,000 on satellite TV ads through Aug. 25 and appears to have added to his initial $21,989 cable TV buy with $101,640 more through Aug. 14.

The cable buy locations line up with suburban and downstate Democratic legislative districts that Rauner’s political organization has targeted.

So, what is going on here? First and foremost, Rauner needs to improve his own polling numbers, both for his 2018 re-election and, more immediately, so his involvement can be of some use to his Republican legislative candidates this fall.

A recent poll conducted for Democratic U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth’s U.S. Senate campaign found Rauner’s job approval rating was just 37 percent, with a disapproval of 55 percent. “He’s been sitting around there for all of 2016, so opinions are hardening,” said a source familiar with the poll’s findings.

Rauner’s people counter with their own poll numbers that they

say have Rauner’s approve/disapprove rating at 44-49.

Either way, Rauner has to start moving numbers his direction to have a positive impact on this year’s election. The term limits issue polls off the charts in this state, so firmly attaching himself to the proposal in an unprecedented and sustained advertising buy likely will help.

Seventy-eight percent supported the idea in a February 15-20 poll taken by the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute.

The information-gathering aspect of this term limits push also can’t be ignored. Rauner reportedly has put his trusted lieutenant Chip Englander in charge of his data project.

All his legislative races are gathering lots of data, and it’s being pooled in one spot.

Building on Rauner’s 2014 race, and adding this year’s data (including from those who sign up online for the term limits pledge) the Illinois GOP could be “among the nation’s elite in data” for 2018, predicted a Republican insider. “Maybe the top.”

And regardless of which poll is accurate, he’s gonna need every bit of help he can muster, both this year and during the next cycle.

Patriot Run best of the summer

To the Editor: How many people does it take to pull off the best run of the summer – the McHenry County Patriot Run? It’s not the quantity, it’s the quality. Mike Splitt of InSync Systems led a group of community volunteers who planned it. Generous sponsors came forward to contribute to it. A drone came out to record it. And many runners came out in the rain to run it. All to support the veterans served by TLS Veterans and the Veterans Assistance Commission.

This run serves as an annual reminder that a great way to honor those who served on our behalf is to make sure there is funding for services they need.

A sincere thank you to all involved in putting on the best run of the summer on behalf of our local veterans.

An organization controlled by Gov. Bruce Rauner has spent a million dollars on a new TV ad promoting legislative term limits in a little over a week. And that’s just for starters.

Turnaround Illinois Inc. is one of those “dark money” nonprofit groups that doesn’t have to disclose its donors. It so far has booked $1,015,084 in broadcast, satellite and cable TV ads. The group bought $684,455 in broadcast TV ads scheduled to run from Aug. 5 through 14.

The biggest chunk of the money, $344,850, was spent on very expensive Chicago broadcast TV spots.

All the ad buys are expected to be renewed.

Gov. Rauner’s TV ad features several “real people” talking about the need for term limits. Rauner also has set up a website where folks can “sign” an electronic petition supporting the idea. One of the people appearing in the ad exhorts watchers to help them get “a million signatures.”

Before the ads appeared, Rauner spent several days touring the state demanding House and Senate Democrats come back after the election and pass a term limits constitutional amendment, which wouldn’t be voted on by the public until 2018.

Rauner himself appears at the end of the ad to say, “Let’s all sign the term

Hotels in 10 states, D.C. may have been hacked The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – An undisclosed number of people who used credit cards at 20 Hyatt, Sheraton, Marriott, Westin and other hotels in 10 states and the District of Columbia may have had their cards compromised as a result of hack of the hotels’ payment system.

HEI Hotels & Resorts, which operates just under 60 hotels and resorts under a variety of brands, said that after being notified by its credit card processor of a potential breach, it conducted an internal investigation that found malware on its payment processing systems at the 20 properties. The malware was designed to capture debit and credit card information, such as names, card account numbers, card expiration dates and verification codes, as it flowed through the systems.

According to the Norwalk, Connecticut company, the hack potentially affected cards used at point of sale terminals, such as those at the hotels’ restaurants and stores, between December 2015 and June 2016. Systems at a few of the affected locations were found to have been infected with the malware as early as March 2015.

Retailers and other companies that deal with large numbers of credit cards have become popular targets for hackers looking to make a quick buck by collecting and selling the information on the internet in bulk. A couple of years ago, massive breaches involving the thefts of millions of card numbers at retailers such as Target, Home Depot and Neiman Marcus grabbed headlines.

HEI advised anyone who used a card at the hotels in question during the given time frame to review their account statements and look for discrepancies or unusual activity, both over the past several months and going forward.

This Feb. 1, 2010, file photo, shows The Westin Philadelphia hotel in Philadelphia. Hyatt, Sheraton, Marriott and Westin hotels in 10 states and the District of Columbia may have been targeted by hackers for months. Hotel operator HEI Hotels & Resorts, said Monday that malware put into place in at least 20 locations may have collected names, card account numbers, card expiration dates and verification codes.

And in Target’s case, its breach ultimately led to the departure of its CEO. Among the hotel chains, Hilton Worldwide, Trump Hotel Collection and Starwood Hotels & Resorts have all confirmed POS system breaches within the past year or so. More recently, fast food chains Wendy’s and Cici’s Pizza acknowledged breaches of their systems in the past few months.

Yet the black market value of credit card numbers has tumbled, largely as a result of better fraud prevention

technology that allows banks to spot and stop bad transactions faster. As a result, many thieves have moved on to target more lucrative information, such as health care data.

HEI said in its notice to consumers that once it found out about the breach of its systems, it transitioned payment card processing to a stand-alone system that’s completely separate from the rest of its network. It disabled the malware and is in the process of reconfiguring various components of its network and

payment systems to make them more secure.

The company said in its statement that it’s continuing to cooperate with the law enforcement investigation and coordinating with banks and payment card companies. It added that the breach has been contained, and customers can safely use cards at all of its properties.

HEI officials didn’t immediately return a call seeking additional comment.

HEI advised anyone who used a card at the hotels in question during the given time frame to review their account statements and look for discrepancies or unusual activity, both over the past several months and going forward.

Customers who notice anything out of place should contact their card issuer.

As with any breach, consumers are not liable for fraudulent charges on their credit cards. And once a breach such as this is disclosed, as a precaution, banks will often automatically issue new cards to any of their customers that potentially could be affected.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT TUESDAY, AUGUST 16, 2016

NEW YORK – NFL and Pepsi said Monday they have had several conversations with artists about performing at the Super Bowl, but said they haven’t formally asked Adele or any other musicians to appear.

At a concert in Los Angeles on Saturday, Adele said that she turned down performing at the big game.

In a statement, NFL and Pepsi said “we have not at this point extended a formal offer to Adele or anyone else.”

NFL and Pepsi didn’t respond to an email asking whether Adele was one of the artists they approached about performing at the Feb. 5, 2017, event in Houston.

Larry Wilmore speaks at the Viacom 2015 Winter Television Critics Association press tour in Pasadena, Calif. Comedy Central announced on Monday that “The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore” will conclude its run Thursday.

Larry Wilmore-hosted ‘Nightly Show’ axed by Comedy Central NEW YORK – Comedy Central’s “The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore” is coming to an end.

The late-night humor and talk show, which premiered in January 2015, will conclude its run Thursday, the network announced Monday.

The program, which filled the slot vacated by Stephen Colbert when he jumped to CBS, sought to explore current events and larger life issues as presided over by Wilmore, who previously had served as “senior black correspondent” on “The Daily Show.”

But audience acceptance of “The Nightly Show” never approached its “Daily Show” lead-in, neither during the regime of Jon Stewart nor that of his successor, Trevor Noah, who took over last September.

Comedy Central president Kent Alterman praised Wilmore and his team for “crafting a platform for underrepresented voices.” He said the show had steadily improved, “but unfortunately it hasn’t resonated with the audience in a way that it would need to for us to continue.”

While this year’s second quarter found “The Daily Show” beaten only by NBC’s “The Tonight Show” in adults 18-to-34, logging 278,000 viewers, “The Nightly Show” retained little more than half that, according to Nielsen.

The 54-year-old Wilmore wrote for “In Living Color” and “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” He created “The Bernie Mac Show” (for which he shared a Peabody Award) and with Eddie Murphy co-created the animated series “The PJs.” He is a creator of the upcoming HBO comedy “Insecure,” starring Issa Rae, which premieres in October.

Looking forward

Stepping out of Jobs’s shadow, Cook champions the promise of Apple

By JENA MCGREGOR

O

The Washington Post

n a sleek white coffee table in Apple CEO Tim Cook’s fourth-floor office in late July, beneath framed posters of Robert F. Kennedy, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and Jackie Robinson, a rose-gold iPhone 6s sits in its original box. Earlier that morning, Cook had stood in front of employees at Apple headquarters and held up the phone, which a staffer had hand-delivered from a store in Beijing to commemorate a notable occasion: Apple had sold its billionth iPhone.

That celebratory milestone – Cook laughs when asked by a reporter if he’ll stop counting, as McDonald’s did with its hamburgers – aptly coincides with another big moment for the technology giant’s chief executive.

A few weeks later, Cook would mark the fifth anniversary of what has been the most closely watched transition of power in corporate history: On Aug. 24, 2011, just six weeks before his death, Apple’s iconic founder, Steve Jobs, permanently handed his chief operating officer the reins.

“It’s been a blur in a lot of ways,” said Cook, who had filled in for Jobs during medical leaves. “It feels like it was yesterday in some respects.”

It is fitting these two milestones arrive so close together. That’s because the iPhone, launched by Jobs, has been the biggest driver of Apple’s massive growth during Cook’s tenure. It led the company to soaring valuations and accounted for nearly two-thirds of Apple’s revenue in the past year. Just the tally on iPhone sales, almost $141 billion over the past four quarters, is more than the annual sales figures of Cisco, Disney and Nike – combined.

Cook sat down with The Washington Post to discuss his first five years in one of corporate America’s most glaring spotlights.

In two sprawling and self-reflective interviews, Cook described why the visibility of the job has been “shocking,” how he’s learned to deal with the scrutiny, and who he’s turned to for advice at pivotal moments (Warren Buffett, on his decision to return cash to shareholders, and Anderson Cooper about publicly disclosing he is gay).

Cook, 55, chooses his words carefully.

And while he’s quick to trumpet Apple, he

Video online See excerpts from the Washington Post’s interview with Tim Cook at NWHerald.com. is also unassuming, quickly noting, after saying his job can be “lonely,” that “I’m not looking for any sympathy. CEOs don’t need any sympathy.”

That reflects how Cook’s imprint on Apple has often been described – making it more systematic, more transparent, more team-oriented, more humble. He has engaged on social issues more than most CEOs, writing op-eds on legislation that limits gay rights and making the extraordinary decision earlier this year to oppose the FBI’s request to unlock the San Bernardino, California, killer’s phone.

As CEO, he gets high marks for managing the company’s growth, keeping margins high and expanding further into markets such as China. He has pushed into the enterprise market, grown Apple’s product lineup and positioned Apple to make more money off the devices it’s already sold: Its services business, which includes things such as iTunes, iCloud and a mobile payments service, is projected to be the size of a Fortune 100 business next year – all on its own.

Yet as the company deals with declining sales in its major device categories and in markets like China, critics and some investors have fretted about Apple’s innovation mojo under Cook. The first all-new device during his tenure, the Apple Watch, is not yet a mega hit. The iPhone juggernaut faces a saturated smartphone market, growing competition from low-cost startups and longer upgrade windows from consumers.

Rumored big concepts behind the curtain – such as a reported car project – appear to be years away.

Some analysts say such impatience is shortsighted, and that the long-term potential for things such as services, augmented reality and even a possible car could ultimately transform the way Cook’s tenure is viewed.

“Investors are so finicky that they lose track of the big picture,” says Gene Munster, an analyst at Piper Jaffray who covers Apple. “I think the wisdom and legacy of Tim Cook is going to be determined by what happens in the next five years.”

Patient receives quality care at Centegra’s Hip & Knee Replacement Center SPONSORED BY

As far as the qualities of Centegra’s facilities were concerned, Boho said the one feature that he liked the most was his private room.

“It gave me a feeling of comfort,” Boho said, indicating it was more like being in a hotel room.

“They were there to take care of the problem and that’s why the relationship was so great.

By Diane Krieger Spivak For 10 years Huntley, Ill. resident Mike Boho’s knee progressively became more and more painful when he walked.

“In the last three years it was extensive, to the extent that I had a hard time walking up stairs,” Boho said.

He sought help for his pain from Dr. John Daniels, orthopedic surgeon and co-medical director of the Centegra Hip & Knee Replacement Center.

“Centegra was a support in several ways,” Boho said. “Every person that I had contact with made me feel that I was a very important person there and that they really cared about me. And boy, with an attitude like that, how could you possibly not have a positive reaction.”

“I’ve never particularly cared for hospitals in the past, but I think Centegra’s got their act together,” Boho said. “There’s no question about it. I think they’re very concerned about the patient, they’re very concerned about the results and they’re very concerned about how you feel about your situation.”

Boho added that he is very happy Centegra built a new hospital in Huntley.

“Overall, I’ve had a better relationship with Centegra than I’ve had with any other hospital.”

Boho said his experience was so terrific that he plans on returning to Centegra to get his other knee replaced. Centegra’s second Hip & Knee Replacement Center recently opened in Huntley at the new Centegra Hospital-Huntley.

paste during word processing tasks, the people said. The display also allows Apple to add new buttons via software updates rather than through more expensive, slower hardware refreshes.

The new top-of-the-line MacBook Pros will be slightly thinner than the current models but are not tapered like the MacBook Air and latest 12-inch MacBook, one of the people said. The new MacBook Pros have a smaller footprint than current models, and the casing has shallower curves around the edges. The pressure-sensitive trackpad also is slightly wider, the person added.

An option for a version featuring a higher-performance graphics chip from Advanced Micro Devices will be available, another person familiar with the matter said. It’s unclear which provider Apple will use for the main processor, but Intel Corp. has supplied this in the past.

Apple is using one of AMD’s “Polaris” graphics chips because the design offers the power efficiency and thinness necessary to fit inside the slimmer Apple notebook, the person said. The new graphics card is more than 20 percent thinner than its predecessor, AMD said earlier this year. AMD declined to comment, referring inquiries to Apple.

The new design will include USB-C technology, a multifunctional type of port that can handle charging, data transfers, and display connectivity, one of the people said. Apple also has considered bringing gray, gold, and silver colors to the new line, as it has done with other products such as the iPhone, iPad, and the 12-inch MacBook, a person said. It’s unclear whether colored Pro laptops will be available when the new line is released.

Apple is planning to bring over its Touch ID fingerprint technology from the iPhone to the new MacBook Pro line. Apple has tested versions of the upcoming laptops that integrate the scanner beside the new function key display, according to one of the people.

The sensor would allow users to log in more quickly and theoretically authenticate Apple Pay purchases. Like with iPhones, the new Pro laptops will encrypt fingerprint data so it can’t be removed from the devices.

Apple also will release a new version of its Mac operating system named Sierra this fall that brings Siri, new messaging and photo-management features, deeper iCloud integration and more efficient file storage to Apple’s desktops and laptops, the company said in June.

And go to bed and get up at the same time every day, including weekends.

To get better sleep, avoid coffee or other caffeinated beverages or foods after noon; their effects in disrupting sleep can last for 12 to 16 hours. Also avoid more than one alcoholic drink after dinner. While alcohol can be an effective “nightcap,” helping you nod off more easily, later in the evening it acts as a stimulant, keeping you from getting enough deep sleep.

Finally, if you know or think you might suffer from sleep apnea or another sleep disorder, a doctor who specializes in sleep can improve your own – and with it, your energy.

• Control stress. The most common cause of persistent fatigue is stress and the emotional response to it. You can’t eliminate stress from your life, but you can learn relaxation techniques that work as an antidote to it. Deep breathing, meditation, progressive muscle relaxation and visualization can evoke a state of rest and release. These relaxation exercises lower blood pressure and slow heartbeat and respiration.

Paying attention to these lifestyle changes can do a lot more for your energy than drinking “energy drinks,” which are artificial and temporary. You want the real thing.

Dear Dr. K: I often feel quite tired. My doctor says this fatigue might be caused by my low-normal testosterone level. I’d rather not go on testosterone therapy. What are some other ways to enhance my energy?

Dear Reader: Research studies have not demonstrated a clear value in giving testosterone therapy to men who might be experiencing symptoms of low-normal or slightly low blood levels of testosterone.

In fact, some studies even have indicated such treatments may raise the risk of heart trouble. So I certainly can understand if you’d rather avoid testosterone therapy to relieve your fatigue.

The good news is lifestyle changes can go a long way toward improving your energy and overall health. I’ll describe some of them here.

• Eat for energy. Caffeine and sugar can give you a temporary lift. But when you eat a diet packed with vegetables, fruits, nuts, whole grains, healthy fats and lean protein, you not only consume the finest energy-boosting foods, but you also promote good health. That’s an energy booster in itself. And don’t forget water. If your body is short on fluids, one of the first signs is a feeling of fatigue.

• Exercise regularly. Exercise is a proven way to increase your vim and vigor. Aim for 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity a week or 75 minutes of vigorous activity, or a mix of the two. You’ll also want to engage in two to three strength-training sessions a week. Allow at least 48 hours between these muscle-building workouts to give your body time to recover.

• Get a better night’s sleep. Nothing saps your energy faster than a poor night’s rest.

Most ordinary sleep difficulties can be solved with simple behavioral changes. For example, use your bed only for sleeping or

airline reservation, a particular seat usually is assigned and the airline expects the passenger to sit there unless the crew is notified and approves the change. If sitting in the middle seat in close proximity to a man you don’t know would bother you, mention it to one of the cabin crew and request a change, or just switch seats with your travel companion.

Dear Abby: I’m a retired man who took a community college class. My lab partner was a young woman who was having difficulties attending the class. She wasn’t there for the final exam, and I wondered if she had dropped the course. I did not have her phone number or her email address, but she had mentioned she worked at a nearby bank, so I went to visit her there. We talked for a few minutes and she told me she actually had done quite well in the class.

When I told my wife and daughter about it, they were shocked. They said what I did was inappropriate because of the age difference and she could have gotten into trouble at her job.

Abby, they almost accused me of stalking her.

Is there a social rule that makes my behavior incorrect? I find it hard to believe someone would get into trouble for talking to a person in the bank at any age. – Am I Missing Something?

Dear Am I: You appear to be a very nice person. What you are “missing” is the fact your wife is insecure, and your daughter backed her mother up. You did nothing wrong.

have a problem with my two younger sisters.

Neither one can have children. I have three.

Recently, one of my sisters turned my sweetest daughter against me by telling her I had “abandoned her” when I moved to Ohio with my oldest son and divorced their father. Not true. I left my daughter with my sister so she could experience raising a teenager since she couldn’t have a child of her own.

After telling my daughter I had abandoned her, my sister advised her to tell me she never wanted to talk to me again. My daughter is very sweet and gullible. She has taken her aunt’s side and says she wants nothing to do with me.

This is driving me crazy. Please tell me what to do. – Heartbroken In The Midwest Dear Heartbroken: If your daughter is a minor, demand she return to you immediately. Do it through a lawyer, if necessary, because what your sister is doing is a form of parental alienation. If your daughter is an adult, then ask your other two children to talk to their sister and set her straight.

MEN’S STEEPLECHASE

First hurdle cleared

Jager cruises into final with prelims victory

Nice race today @EvanJager. Good luck Wednesday. #steeplechasing – @HDJTrack (Jacobs High School track and field)

By JASMINE JOHNSON sports@nwherald.com

RIO DE JANEIRO – Jacobs High School graduate Evan Jager qualified Monday for the 3,000-meter steeplechase finals, winning his preliminaries heat at the Rio Olympics.

His time of 8:25.6 was 25 seconds off pace of his personal best and placed him ninth of the 15 qualifiers.

“I wanted to stay on the rail and relax as much as I possibly could,” the Algonquin native said. “And make sure I got in the top three.”

The 27-year-old, two-time Olympian holds the North American record in the 3,000-meter steeplechase and qualified for the Olympic Games after winning the 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials. He also won the 2015 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships.

Jager, who lives in Portland, Oregon, ran track at the University of Wisconsin-Madison for a season before signing a Nike contract in 2008, forfeiting his NCAA eligibility.

His Olympic debut came at the 2012 London Games, where he finished sixth.

“It’s different (now) because I know what I’m getting myself into,” Jager said. “London was the first time that I’d been relatively competitive at all on this stage.”

Jager’s focus on racing instead of the Olympic festivities is also a key difference, he said. He hasn’t participated in many Olympic activities this time.

“I’m trying to treat it like another meet and still represent my country as best as I can,” Jager said.

Although Jager’s training hasn’t changed much since four years ago, his strategy has. In the 2015 World Championships in Beijing, where he finished sixth, running too hard and fast in the opening cost him better position at the finish.

“I had the closing speed,” Jager said. “I think I just used up all my mental and emotional energy in the first 2,600 meters.”

The United States’ Evan Jager competes in the men’s 3,000-meter steeplechase Monday in the Olympic stadium of the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Jager, a Jacobs High School graduate, won his heat to qualify for the final Wednesday.

Jager didn’t make the same mistake Monday.

He paced himself in the middle of his 15-person heat, until about five laps to go. With chants of “USA!” roaring in the background at Olympic Stadium, Jager seesawed between fifth and sixth place. During the final two laps, Jager surged to third with a 6:17.9 split.

He momentarily fell back to fourth, pushing to second and exploding to first in the last lap.

Going into the final, scheduled for 9:50 a.m. Wednesday, Jager said he will be ready for any kind of race.

“I don’t want to go in there hoping for a fast race and have it be really slow and let that bother me,” Jager said.

“I’m just going to let what happens, happen and just try to do my best.”

RICHMOND-BURTON FOOTBALL

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com

In a way, it seems to run in the family.

Jesse Hill-Male’s older brother, Jake, tore an ACL years ago playing soccer. Their father, Jonathan, tore an ACL once and never had surgery (he did do lots of rehab). The kicker might be the time Jesse’s father tore his mother, June’s, ACL tackling her in a pickup football game.

The Hill-Males know how to handle a torn ACL. In a football game against North Boone on Oct. 16, Jesse Hill-Male planted his left leg and felt it give out. At the same time, a defender lunged into his knee. Something didn’t feel right. It was the second quarter and Hill-Male – who had worked hard to earn the starting running back position midway through the season – decided he was OK to play.

In the third quarter, he planted his leg and was hit again. He felt pain in his left knee and knew something was wrong because the defender had hit him on the right side.

“It hurt quite a lot,” Hill-Male recalled. “I was thinking, ‘I really hope this isn’t torn.’ I might not have used the best language at the time.”

Days later, an MRI confirmed a torn ACL. The shooting guard and track runner would miss all of the winter and spring seasons. He set his sights on football.

Richmond-Burton coach Pat Elder recently said he thinks Hill-Male looks even better now than he did as a junior.

“Any youngster that goes through this injury should approach it the way the Hill-Males did,” Elder said. “He had his surgery taken care of as soon as possible. They were all very positive.”

Hill-Male had surgery Nov. 4. Days later his team ended its season with a second-round playoff loss to Rockford Lutheran. Hill-Male began the grueling rehabilitation process. He woke up at 6 a.m. to go to rehab three days a week for two months.

The hardest part was missing out on

Richmond-Burton running back Jesse Hill-Male (left) carries the ball against Harvard on Sept. 11 in Harvard. Hill-Male is back this season after suffering a torn ACL in his left knee Oct. 16. basketball season after a 22-6 season the year before. He attended every practice he could, controlling the scoreboard with forward Reggie Banks, who also tore an ACL during football season.

“I don’t even really like talking about it,” Hill-Male said of basketball season.

“It was horrible. Basketball practices, you scrimmage so much, it’s a lot of fun.

I really missed that.”

Hill-Male was cleared by doctors in June, seven months after his surgery, and finished physical therapy not long after that. He will return to the starting running back position that he worked

so hard for last season.

Hill-Male had fewer carries than graduated seniors Joe Dittmar and Joe Wolfram. But he had been starting ahead of them by Week 3. This year, he and fellow senior Blaine Bayer figure to be the top two options in the backfield.

“I feel a lot stronger, I’ve put on quite a lot of weight and it’s not fat,” said the 6-foot, 185-pound Hill-Male. “I feel really good. My knee, I can’t tell the difference between my right and my left. If anything, I’d say my left knee is stronger.

I feel faster. I feel better than I did that game before I hurt my knee.”

He said a goal he has set for himself is to reach 1,000 rushing yards this season. With 6-9, 312-pound Arkansas commit Dalton Wagner spearheading the offensive line, Hill-Male should have a good chance. He also wants to lead R-B to a Kishwaukee River Conference championship.

“We’re hoping he can pick up where he left off and build on that,” Elder said.

“He’s looked good this summer in the things he’s done. He’s got a great work ethic. He does what he asks to do.”

R-B opens its season Aug. 26 at home against Wauconda.

Bears benefit from working against best BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The Bears showed up Monday at Gillette Stadium to meet the Patriots determined to continue to evolve into the NFL’s 2016 version of the battling Bickersons.

In a Bears training camp season that has been long on family squabbles and short on development, Pro Bowlers Alshon Jeffery of the Bears and Malcolm Butler of the Patriots engaged in a facemask-tugging stare down until Bears receiver Josh Bellamy came flying over a pile of players and started swinging.

After Butler and Jeffery were banished from practice, the Bears’ Lamar Houston and New England’s Nate Solder locked up in more of an undercard tussle.

Bears coach John Fox said don’t worry, however. Everything is under control.

“I know (Patriots coach) Bill (Belichick) and I both made a big deal out of it,” Fox said. “And the agreement was that if anything happened like that, they’re out. And they were.”

Butler immediately was sent off the field while Jeffery returned to the huddle, but Bears coaches quickly realized what was going on and sent Jeffery to the sideline, where he watched the rest of practice.

Although the Bears’ ongoing propensity for these kinds of dust-ups is hard to ignore, it was not the story of Day 1 in New England.

Belichick talked before practice Monday about how pleased he is to have the Bears here.

“Coach Fox and I go back a long way.

We’ve always had a great relationship and with many of the assistants on his staff, of course (brothers) Josh McDaniels (a Patriots coach), and Ben (McDan-

The Bears’ Jay Cutler throws a pass as fellow quarterback Brian Hoyer watches during a practice with the New England Patriots on Monday in Foxborough, Mass. iels, a Bears coach), obviously, but even beyond that.

“I think this will be a good, productive week for us. We’re looking forward to just trying to find ways to improve individually, improve collectively as a team.”

Fox’s Bears struggled mightily in their exhibition opener, but he hailed the advantages of working against the best this preseason.

“It’s such a great opportunity to come out here against the New England Patriots,” Fox said. “The people are

great, the staff was all really great, and then you get on the field and you can see why they have success year in and year out.

“They practice the right way: They finish; they’re physical – my gosh, they’ve got studs, and they’ve got studs everywhere.”

Of particular concern after the preseason opener is the Bears’ offensive line, and quarterback Jay Cutler thought their first day with the Pats paid big dividends.

“We saw a lot of different fronts out there, a lot of situations where we had to make a lot of identifications, a lot of conversation, a lot of talk. We handled it well,” Cutler said. “We’ll look at the film tonight. We’ll clean some stuff up. But I thought it was a big test for them, and they did well.”

Cutler also was clear about what he sees as the advantages of working against the Patriots’ secondary and even Jeffery and Butler getting into it.

“They’re both competitive guys.

They play a lot of man. They are going to be up in your face. They’re very good at it,” Cutler said. “Just in the 1-on-1s, I told the guys, ‘These guys are sticking to you. There are tight windows,’ and that is hard to do in man. They get a lot of practice at it, and so it will be a big challenge for us. It’s only going to make us better.”

No matter whom I talked to in navy and orange, the continuing theme of this week was obvious: The New England Patriots live where the Bears are trying to get.

There will be other stories this week with the reunion with Martellus Bennett, the battling Long brothers – the Bears’ Kyle and New England’s Chris – and Akiem Hicks coming home.

But the Bears’ Day 1 message was simple: Boy, these Pats are good.

Ex-Bear Bennett happy to see fellow TE Miller

By ADAM L. JAHNS

ajahns@suntimes.com

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Bears tight end Zach Miller received a warm welcome from former teammate Martellus Bennett during the first joint practice with the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium on Monday.

“He snuck up behind me and gave me a hug,” Miller said.

Quarterback Jay Cutler, of course, didn’t have a similar encounter. He didn’t share a moment with Bennett.

“No, I missed that opportunity,” Cutler wryly said. “Maybe tomorrow.”

Or maybe not.

Bennett and his brother, Michael, the Seahawks’ defensive end, recently ridiculed Cutler in an ESPN article.

Martellus The Bears also trad- Bennett ed Bennett to the Patriots because his overbearing, sometimes controversial, personality contradicted

the culture change under coach John Fox and general manager Ryan Pace.

But Bennett, who is on his fourth team in nine seasons, hasn’t ruffled any feathers yet in New England. He is expected to speak to the media Tuesday.

“My expectations are the same for every player,” Patriots coach Bill Belichick said when asked about Bennett.

“That’s to know what to do, do it with the proper technique, play hard at all times, put the team first. There are no different expectations for anybody. It’s all the same.”

This and that: Receiver Eddie Royal (concussion) and running back Ka’Deem Carey (concussion) traveled with the team, but neither fully participated in practice. ... Outside linebacker Pernell McPhee (knee) also made the trip. ...

Tight end Zach Miller (concussion) was limited for the third consecutive day. ...

Former Bears linebacker Shea McClellin, who is playing multiple positions for the Patriots, was absent at practice. ...

The Patriots placed safety Brock Vereen, the Bears’ 2014 fourth-round pick, on the NFL’s reserve/retired list.

Chapman song costs DJ job

By JEFF ARNOLD

For the Sun-Times

What the Cubs are calling an inadvertent musical choice has brought the team a public-relations headache, resulting in the firing Monday of a DJ at Wrigley Field.

The song “Smack My Bitch Up” by English band Prodigy was played in the middle of the ninth inning Sunday night at Wrigley Field after Cubs closer Aroldis Chapman, who Aroldis was suspended at the Chapman start of the season for 30 games for an alleged domestic-violence incident involving his girlfriend, struck out the side.

The Cubs said in a statement Monday they have fired the employee responsible. The Cubs hired two DJs in 2015 to select music that is used during home games. The team declined to identify who was fired Monday.

“We apologize for the irresponsible music selection during our game last night,” Cubs president of business operations Crane Kenney said in the

statement. “The selection of this track showed a lack of judgment and sensitivity to an important issue.

“We have terminated our relationship with the employee responsible for making the selection and will be implementing stronger controls to review and approve music before public broadcast during our game.”

Chapman joined the Cubs last month.

The trade came with heavy scrutiny because of Chapman’s past, but Cubs president Theo Epstein, general manager Jed Hoyer and chairman Tom Ricketts said they made the decision to go through with the trade after speaking with Chapman about the incident.

Chapman was accused of choking his girlfriend and firing eight shots into his garage. He was neither arrested nor charged.

ESPN reported Monday morning the Cubs “unintentionally” played the 1990s song.

According to Billboard, the song, which was released in 1998, has been banned by the BBC because of concerns it encourages violence against women.

MTV also banned the music video for the song because of content of extreme sexual nature.

“Obviously,” Saladino said. “Realistically I’d like to be good at my job whatever it is, whether it’s playing every day or being an everyday substitutional kind of guy. I just want to be the best I can. Wherever I’m needed I’d just like to bring value.”

To that end, Saladino, who has above-average speed, plans to work with someone during the offseason to get faster. He did so years ago and wants to brush up.

“Be a late-inning base runner,” Saladino said. “Be that guy who can get that run across the plate and get that run in.

That has value. I just want to play the game as long as I can.”

“He really knows that game; he’s a smart base runner, and that helps, but you can always find something to improve on,” teammate J.B. Shuck, one of the fastest Sox, said. “He always works to get better.”

In sum, Ventura said “there’s just something that Sal’s about.”

“He does a lot of different things that are good for a baseball team. Some of it is how he plays, the actual tools and versatility. The other is how he has integrated himself within the whole baseball team.”

Insurance and warranties SPONSORED BY

Here’s a nightmare for you and your bank account.

Your vehicle suddenly breaks down, you have it towed to a repair shop and then you get the phone call you definitely didn’t want to get. “Sir or Ma’am, it’s your engine. It’s going to cost a few thousand dollars to be repaired.”

Thankfully, you’ve got a factory warranty, but after checking to make sure you’re covered, you learn that the warranty has expired. Now you’ll have to pay for this costly major repair.

In order to avoid such a financial disaster, you may want to consider a Vehicle Protection Plan that allows you to purchase additional mileage of coverage, offering you peace of mind with protection from similar major repairs.

At Gary Lang Auto Group, Vehicle Protection Plans are offered that also are

accompanied by a number of additional perks, including towing, travel, fluids, rental car coverage and more.

Whatever you choose to do, it’s important to gain a thorough understanding of what your protection plan covers. Not all warranties cover the vehicle bumper-to-bumper so it’s important to ask questions to ensure your coverage plan is exactly what you believe it is before going forward.

A similar option for protection often can also be obtained from your insurance agent, if they offer Mechanical Breakdown Insurance.

Many find this to be more affordable than a standard extended warranty while providing protection from a variety of major mechanical issues that can affect your vehicle. Major repairs to your car’s engine and transmission can be covered with such a plan.

Once again, it’s important to read the fine print and understand what’s covered, what kind of deductible you’ll pay for each repair visit and to ensure you can visit your favorite, trusted auto shop, such as Gary Lang Auto Group.

Tyler Saladino gets it.

He’s aware he plays a game for a living. And although the baseball life is not without challenges, hardships or behind-the-scenes stress those who watch from the seats or a press box don’t always see, the 27-year-old southern California skateboard dude is trying to soak in every moment to the fullest.

“You only get so many days up here, and you have to make the most of each one,” said Saladino, whose first day in the majors came to pass as the starting third baseman against the Cubs in July 2015 at Wrigley Field. “The day is going to pass when you’re not up here, and even if you are here for 10 years, I’m sure it will seem feel like it flashes by.”

In 66 games, Saladino, a seventh-round Sox draft pick in 2010, is batting .259 with six homers, 26 RBIs and nine stolen bases. A valuable roster piece because of his versatility, Saladino, a shortstop by trade, played good defense at third base in 2015 and has started at second base since Brett Lawrie went down with a hamstring injury July 22. He also has played first base, left

“He has the ability to do that,” manager Robin Ventura said. “He’s a little bit of an older soul than his age suggests.”

“I’m just trying to make sure I’m having a good time with the guys win, lose or draw,” Saladino said. “You’re never going to get these times back. You’re making memories. So you try to make the most of each day.”

Perhaps losing a best friend who died in a drunken driving accident when Saladino was 18 – a dragon tattoo covers his entire back as a tribute and reminder – brings perspective to his life. Saladino also was on track to be a September callup in 2014 when he suffered a torn ulnar collateral ligament and had that possibility taken away by Tommy John Surgery. Rookies such as 2015 firstround draft pick Carson Fulmer will go to Saladino for counsel even though he’s not a veteran. But he is something of one among the Sox rookie corps.

“He has a pretty good feel of what’s going on, and he’s a guy coming up in a unique situation playing all over,” Ventura said. “And right now he’s getting a stretch where he’s playing every day.

“He’s just a good team guy.”

Saladino wants to be a good everyday player.

6 WOMEN’S TRACK & FIELD

Felix edged by diving Miller American denied a record 5th gold

By EDDIE PELLS

The Associated Press RIO DE JANEIRO – For beating Allyson Felix, Shaunae Miller gets a gold medal. Maybe they should give her a cape, too.

It took a head-first dive, Superwoman-style, for Miller to spring an Olympic upset Monday over America’s top female sprinter in the 400 meters and deny her a record fifth gold medal.

Miller, a 22-year-old from the Bahamas who finished second to Felix at the world championships last year, took an early lead, then held off her charge along the straightaway.

Neck-and-neck with two steps to go, MillShaunae Miller er sprawled, dove and tumbled across the line to win by .07 seconds.

Now, instead of a coronation for Felix, it’s a celebration for Miller, whose dive will go down as one of the most dramatic images Allyson Felix we’ve seen at these, or any, Olympics.

“This is the moment I have been waiting for,” Miller said. “I just gave it my all.”

And she didn’t even get the evening’s biggest roars. Those went to pole vaulter Thiago Braz da Silva, who gave Brazil its first medal in track and field by setting an Olympic record (19 feet, 91/4 inches) to upset world-record holder and defending champion Renaud Lavillenie of France.

But outside of Brazil, they’ll be talking about The Dive.

Starting from Lane 7, Miller expanded the lag, instead of getting gobbled up the way most women do when Felix is on the track.

Stride for stride they ran down the last 100 meters, until the last few steps.

Felix, classically trained by Bobby Kersee, made a textbook lean into the finish line. Miller tried something else. The dive is something no coach ever would teach. Then again, amazing things happen with a gold medal on the line.

“I was just focused on myself,” Felix said when asked about the dive. “I didn’t really have too many thoughts on it.”

The Bahamas’ Shaunae Miller dives across the finish line ahead of the United States’ Allyson Felix to win the gold medal in the 400-meter final Monday night during the Summer Olympics at the Olympic Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.

As Miller lay on her back, gasping for breath and maybe even stunned herself at what she’d done, Felix sat on the ground stone-faced. Ten seconds passed. Then 20.

While Miller jumped with her arms flailing forward, the rules say the win is determined by which athlete has any part of her torso cross the line first. The photo finish showed the negative image of Miller’s sprawled-out body. Her shoulder barely beat Felix to the line.

The result popped up on the scoreboard: Miller won in 49.44 seconds. The bronze went to Jamaica’s Shericka Jackson.

What a finish. What a race.

It marked quite a disappointment for Felix, whose season just didn’t turn out the way she planned it.

“I don’t think I ever quite had a year this tough,” Felix said, as her eyes welled with tears.

She was one of those rare athletes who had the cachet to get the Olympics

to change the schedule. After winning the world championship at 400 meters last year, she put the 200-400 double in her sights for the Olympics. The schedule as it originally was written made it impossible: The 200 heats were scheduled for the same evening as the 400 final.

Felix asked, and she received: The 200 heats were moved to the morning to give America’s best female sprinter a chance for the two-fer.

But she never got to the starting line in the 200. She landed awkwardly on a medicine ball while doing core work in the gym during the spring and her ankle swelled up like a balloon.

Suddenly, what once was a quest for two golds transformed into a struggle to simply make the Olympic team. She did in the 400 but not in the 200. Then, Miller showed up and handed Felix her third Olympic disappointment. This silver goes with the pair she won in 2004 and 2008 in the 200.

Biles’ quest for 5 golds dashed

U.S. star gets bronze on beam, teammate Hernandez silver

By LIZ CLARKE

The Washington Post

Brazil closer to women’s soccer gold, but Sweden comes first

The Brazilians are a step away from a shot at Olympic gold, and nothing could make the host nation’s fans happier.

Women’s soccer has not traditionally been popular in Brazil, but Marta and her teammates have been capturing hearts as they’ve traveled across the country en route to a semifinal match against Sweden on Tuesday.

But although Brazil is a win away from the gold-medal match, the team first will have to overcome a pumpedup Sweden team that knocked off the three-time defending champion United States in the quarterfinals.

Almost 70,000 tickets have been sold for the match at the 78,000-seat stadium in Rio de Janeiro. Tuesday’s other semifinal match, between Canada and Germany, will be played about 275 miles to the north in Belo Horizonte.

U.S. men’s volleyball beats Mexico to reach quarterfinals AP photo

The United States’ Simone Biles (left) congratulates compatriot Lauren Hernandez on Monday for her balance beam performance during the artistic gymnastics women’s apparatus final at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

“It’s something you guys shove into my head,” she said with a smile, “and at 19, I can’t put that much stress on myself because I am only 19. I think you guys want it more than I do ... .”

Simone Biles

U.S. gymnast, on not winning five gold medals at the Rio Games you guys want it more than I do, because I just want to perform the routines that I practice.”

Standing beside her was Hernandez, as sparkly as her red leotard, recalling with a laugh that she’d tweeted 12 months earlier that the Rio Olympics were “one year away!” and posted a video to illustrate her excitement.

No one, Hernandez included, imagined she’d be part of it – a member of the 2016 U.S. Olympic gymnastics team, leaving Rio with a team gold medal in one pocket and an individual silver medal on balance beam in the other. Hernandez was still competing in the junior ranks in summer 2015, although she was a shining light in her peer group, with potential that caught everyone’s eye.

Hernandez progressed apace once elevated to the senior ranks, wowing U.S. national team coordinator Martha Karolyi with a third-place finish at nationals this summer and claiming silver at U.S. Olympic trials in July.

In Monday’s beam final, Hernandez was the sixth of eight gymnasts to compete.

“You got this! Just stay calm,” Biles whispered in her ear.

And with a wide smile to the judges, Hernandez hopped on the beam.

“Nice! Nice!” Karolyi cawed from the stands.

Shouts of “Yeah!” “You got it!” rained down from her family and friends on the U.S. men’s and women’s gymnastics teams.

“I think this is one of the best routines that I’ve showed in Rio,” Hernandez said afterward. “I’m just happy I could perform the way I do in practice and stay calm through the whole thing.”

Biles had an off-day, at least by her elevated standards.

“She is human,” said Aimee Boorman, Biles’s coach since she was 7. To Boorman’s eyes, Biles’s “save” on the somersault was a heroic feat and her performance, a triumph.

“She won a bronze medal on beam at the Olympics,” Boorman said. “That’s huge, and she should be proud of that.”

At last, the U.S. men’s volleyball team is playing the brand of volleyball the Americans knew they had in them to make a special run at the Olympics. It just took a few days longer than expected to get going and find a winning groove.

They reached the quarterfinals Monday after that slow start, victors in their third straight match to conclude pool play by dominating Mexico, 25-23, 25-11, 25-19. Taylor Sander’s kill from the left side on match point sealed it.

He is one of several among the team’s eight first-time Olympians to make vast improvements the past three matches.

What a dramatic turnaround in a week’s time for Sander and the young Americans, greeted by chants of “U-S-A!”

Wlodarczyk breaks hammer WR using late friend’s glove

RIO DE JANEIRO – Every time Anita Wlodarczyk throws the hammer, she has a reminder right there with her of the friend she lost.

Wlodarcyk broke her own world record to win Olympic gold medal on Monday and she did it using the old, gray and tattered left glove of former champion and close friend Kamila Skolimowska.

Skolimowska, gold medalist at the 2000 Sydney Games as a teenager and the brightest star of hammer at the time, died in 2009 at the age of 26 after suffering a pulmonary embolism at a Poland team training camp in Portugal.

• Tuesday, August 16, 2016

RIO DE JANEIRO – From the moment Simone Biles first stepped onto the floor 10 days ago at Rio Olympic Arena, she has been competing against herself. Such was the gulf between Biles’s skills and the rest of the gymnastics world that she graded herself in relation to her potential, happily leaving scoring to the judges.

Monday, after a strong, stylish start to her balance-beam routine, Biles, a two-time world medalist on the apparatus, didn’t get quite enough height on a front somersault. She under-rotated, as a result, hit one foot on the 4-inch-wide plank, wobbled precariously and managed to stay on by grabbing the beam with both hands to steady herself.

“Wow, Simone!” She thought to herself. “That was five-10ths” of a point-deduction. She quickly settled herself and completed the routine, earning a score (14.733) almost a full point lower than her qualifying mark (15.633).

No tearful outburst followed. She hugged her coach, took a seat and proceeded to cheer on her U.S. teammate and Rio roommate, 16-year-old Laurie Hernandez, the sixth beam competitor in the field of eight.

Only one year removed from gymnastics’ junior ranks, Hernandez sped through her difficult tumbling moves and connecting leaps and spins with a veteran’s poise. She was more solid than Biles – and better than all but Sanne Wevers of the Netherlands, who won gold (15.466). Hernandez (15.333) claimed silver. And Biles, who hadn’t even bothered to change into the long pants gymnasts wear to ascend the medal podium, so sure her marks didn’t deserve a medal, took bronze.

With it, Biles kept her Olympic medal-streak intact: four events, four medals. But it spoiled gymnastics’ most publicized pre-Olympic storyline: that the 19-year-old phenom from Spring, Texas, would leave Rio with five golds.

Asked whether she were disappointed that the much ballyhooed “Drive for Five” had fallen short, Biles said, “Not necessarily.” Then she put the horde of journalists who crowded around her, tape recorders and microphones outstretched, in its place.

“It’s something you guys shove into my head,” Biles said with a smile, “and at 19, I can’t put that much stress on myself because I am only 19. I think

Inside an Olympian’s testosterone ordeal VIEWS John Leicester RIO DE JANEIRO – The young athlete, now competing at the Rio Games, always considered herself to be a girl just like the others, a girl who loved to run. Then the governing body of track and field told her she was different, so different that her track career could be over.

Marked “confidential” and signed “best sporting regards,” the letter outlined a choice for the athlete: Open herself up to a panel of medical experts who could recommend surgery or chemical treatment to reduce her testosterone levels or stop competing.

She had fallen foul of the International Association of Athletics Federations’ rules aimed at providing a fair playing field for women by keeping out athletes with high testosterone, a naturally occurring strength-building hormone.

The IAAF’s medical director at the time told track authorities in the athlete’s country that blood and urine tests detected testosterone levels that were “abnormally high.” The suspected cause, wrote Dr. Gabriel Dolle, wasn’t doping but another hot-button issue likely to flare in the Rio Olympics’ final week: hyperandrogenism.

Had the athlete not been a runner, she might never have known of her condition. It was flagged by IAAF tests that look for banned drugs.

The athlete was stunned when told her testosterone pointed to hyperandrogenism, her then-coach told The Associated Press.

“She couldn’t understand. It was shock,” the coach said. “I said, ‘You’re not alone. There are others.’ ” Thus started a months-long process of trips to foreign clinics for batteries of tests and potentially life-changing choices.

Another athlete has become the unwilling face of this complex and sensitive issue. Caster Semenya will race and likely win gold in the 800 meters. Believed to be hyperandrogenic, outed as physiologically different without her consent when she won the world title in 2009, the South African’s dominance again has pushed to the fore divisive questions about whether allowing women to compete with testosterone far above the female norm is fair and whether the hormone’s attributed performance-enhancing effects are significantly greater than

AP file photo

Indian athlete Dutee Chand gestures July 16 at a felicitation event in Bangalore, India. The Indian sprinter qualified for the Olympics after the Court of Arbitration for Sport issued a landmark ruling that challenged her suspension for hyperandrogenism a condition that produces higher than normal testosterone levels in women. other natural gifts, such as height for basketball players.

The AP will not name the athlete, her country or give details that could identify her. In message exchanges, the athlete told AP she is focusing on competition in Rio de Janeiro and that her story is “personal and private.”

However, the IAAF letter and AP’s interview with the coach, who was intimately involved in her eventual decision to agree to testosterone-curbing treatment, shed unprecedented light on the inner workings of the process that at least 14 women have gone through since the federation introduced it in 2011.

Having not withstood a legal challenge brought by another female athlete, India’s Dutee Chand, the IAAF regulations are on hold, suspended by the Court of Arbitration for Sport since July 2015. That means hyperandrogenic women can compete in Rio without reining in their natural testosterone levels.

During the IAAF process, the athlete could not compete; the coach covered her absence from races by lying that she was injured. The AP will not identify the coach to avoid identifying

the athlete.

The first IAAF-requested tests to determine her exact condition required a trip to another nation’s capital, where she was met by Dolle, and was followed by two trips to a clinic in Nice, France, the coach said.

The first Nice trip was accompanied but the second, lasting more than a week, was not because the IAAF did not want to pay for someone to go with her, said the coach.

“I didn’t want her to go alone. She didn’t speak French very well. I was afraid she wouldn’t understand,” the coach said. “I said, ‘Before you take any medicine, call me. Don’t take anything.’ The doctors say, ‘It’s for her good.’ And I thought to myself, ‘She’s fine as she is.’ ” After the second Nice trip, subsequent correspondence from Dolle offered two choices: surgery or medicinal treatment, said the coach.

The coach urged the athlete not to go under the surgeon’s knife, saying: “We can’t take this risk; cut things off that God gave you. ... When things are cut off, it’s forever. You can’t get those parts back.”

“She said, ‘Since I love this sport,

I’ll take the medicine,’ ” the coach said.

The treatment caused weight gain and the unpleasant side effect of making the athlete smell “awful,” sweaty and dirty, even though she stayed clean and wore deodorant and perfume, the coach said.

When the IAAF eventually allowed the athlete to resume competing, she was delighted. But CAS only suspended the regulations, rather than overturn them entirely, giving the IAAF until July 2017 to produce evidence that high testosterone gives hyperandrogenic women a significant performance advantage.

“She is free, but she is scared that from one day to the next they could stop her from running again,” the coach said. “She’s in limbo, waiting for something bad to happen. She asks, ‘Are they going to stop me again? Are they going to make me take more medicine?”

VIEWS Sally Jenkins

• Tuesday, August 16, 2016

RIO DE JANEIRO – There is a lot of official confidence here at the Rio Games, and behind it a lot of flat-out evasion. There are robberies and snapped cables, but the International Olympic Committee and local organizers are “confident” all is safe.

There is rampant theft inside of what are supposed to be restricted venues, but they are “confident” all is secure.

Athletes have gotten sick, but they are “confident” all is healthy. They are positively, adamantly, confident.

You know those swimming pools at Maria Lenk Aquatics Centre that turned so green? The official explanations don’t add up, according to water expert Joseph Cotruvo, who spent 25 years as the Environmental Protection Agency’s director of drinking water standards. I emailed him the transcripts of Rio organizers’ meandering statements that hydrogen peroxide mistakenly was poured into the pools on the day of the Opening Ceremonies, neutralizing the chlorine, and their insistence the pools were nevertheless safe. Cotruvo wrote back that the official statements suggest the pools might have gone without adequate disinfecting for four days.

From a health standpoint, “That is unconscionable,” he wrote.

Do you know how many bodies plunged into those pools and how much may have festered? Cotruvo, who serves on the World Health Organization’s Drinking Water Guidelines Committee, would like to see the microbiology reports from those four days, and so would I. “That would be interesting data,” he wrote. I emailed the IOC requesting it. I also requested data on how many athletes have gotten sick, and what their illnesses are. The IOC has not replied.

In the open-water events, a Belgian sailor has complained of contracting dysentery, and other athletes are slugging mouthwash to kill any potential bacteria in their throats.

But IOC medical director Richard Budgett publicly assured us in a news conference Monday the open water is not unhealthy either, despite how notoriously infected Rio’s waterways are with garbage and sewage.

“A number of athletes do get ill and will get ill in all kinds of sports, and we have looked carefully to make sure it’s not related to the water quality,” Budgett said. “We can be

Rio organizers’ confidence hardly reassuring

An injured woman is taken away on a backboard Monday after being struck by an overhead TV camera that fell from wires suspending it over Olympic Park during the Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro. confident the illnesses are not related to that.”

At the same briefing, Budgett said we also can “be very confident” the drug test samples at the Rio anti-doping lab are protected, because there is a dedicated surveillance camera and a “huge” security presence stationed at the freezer.

How relieving to know Ryan Lochte’s urine is so safe.

Whatever the topic, there is always a convenient assurance from officialdom here. Lochte and three other Americans got held up at gunpoint after celebrating the end of the swimming competition, but the IOC and local organizers are so confident they refused to issue a safety advisory to the delegations. Rio 2016 spokesman Mario Andrada said, “We regret the violence has got so close to the athletes. We have requested the security authorities that they need to make sure everybody is safe everywhere in the city.”

Actually, Rio’s street crime is not nearly as concerning as the visibly sloppy, haphazard security inside the venues. On the day of the Opening Ceremonies, Sports Illustrated installed a $10,000 camera on the roof

of Maracanã Stadium. The only people who supposedly were allowed up there were security and specifically accredited personnel.

The camera was stolen.

The Agence France Presse photo agency has lost 10 cameras, worth an estimated $45,000, from inside venues.

In one instance early in the Games, an unidentified man and a woman wandered briefly into the AFP office inside the Main Press Center, and then disappeared – with an entire camera bag of gear. AFP photographers also have had cameras stolen from inside Lagoa Stadium, and the tennis venue.

“It’s been a very heavy toll for us,” AFP’s Eric Baradat said.

News Corp. photographer Bret Costello’s bag full of equipment was boosted from a coffee bar in Copacabana, but that wasn’t the scary part.

The scary part was a couple of days later when he was standing in the security line at the archery venue and saw the thief posing as him, wearing his official photo vest.

No wonder the local security is so itchy. There have been controlled explosions of suspicious packages outside Maracanã, a basketball

venue, the cycling road race and the International Broadcast Center.

Are you confident in the confidence of these so very confident officials? I’m not. Especially not after a huge camera owned by the Olympic Broadcasting Service crashed to the ground in the middle of the Olympic Park on Monday afternoon, injuring seven spectators. The explanations for that one were just as reassuring as the swimming pool fiasco. According to OBS, there was a problem with the guide rope of the camera, so it called for a cherry-picker to come to the scene to effect repairs. The camera was supported by two independent cables “each one of which could carry the full load of the camera.”

Apparently not.

“A few minutes later, both ropes simultaneously broke.”

It was just another day at the Rio Games. An investigation is pending, and Tuesday, officials no doubt will address the incident.

I’m confident there will be no danger to the public or the athletes.

10 WOMEN’S STEEPLECHASE

Coburn first U.S. woman to medal in steeple

By RICK MAESE

The Washington Post RIO DE JANEIRO – With less than two laps remaining, Emma Coburn knew it was time to make her move.

She’d been running and leaping with the leaders but had been careful to conserve her energy for the last couple of laps. That allowed her to ease her way past Kenya’s Beatrice Chepkoech and slide into position for the record books.

Then came the hard part: maintaining her spot near the front of the women’s 3,000-meter steeplechase field.

“I just thought, ‘OK, hold onto this.

Hold onto this,’ ” the 25-year-old Colorado native explained. “And then with about a lap to go, I looked back, and she was pretty far away. And she has a killer kick, but I thought, ‘OK, wow, this is mine to lose. So don’t give this up.’ ” By the last lap, she knew she was headed to the podium and despite a late push for silver, she was happy to accept AP photo bronze. Coburn set a U.S. record with The United States’ Emma Coburn cele- her time of 9:07.63 and became the first brates Monday after earning the bronze in American to win a steeplechase medthe women’s 3,000-meter steeplechase at al since 1984 – and the first American the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. woman to win at all since the event was

added to the Olympic slate in 2008.

“I feel so lucky that that’s a part of my story,” she said.

Coburn almost ran down Kenya’s Hyvin Kiyeng Jepkemoi at the end, finishing just a half-second away from a silver. Bahrain’s Ruth Jebet cruised to first, winning with a time of 8:59.75.

Monday’s race was one of many here where the absence of Russian competitors was noticeable. Since the event was added, Russia won the Olympic women’s race both times it was contested. In 2008, in fact, Russia runners claimed three of the top four spots.

Yuliua Zaripova won the 2012 Olympic race but was stripped of her gold medal last year because of doping offenses. The entire Russian track and field team was banned from these Rio Games, which means some talented steeplechase competitors were not included in Monday’s field.

The bright lights and big stage of the Olympics didn’t seem to faze Coburn in the least. She comes from a tiny town called Crested Butte, a place most people go to ride mountains bikes or ski – not tackle obstacle courses on the track.

“I don’t know where the confidence in athletic abilities came from,” Coburn said after winning the U.S. Olympic trials, “coming from a town of 1,500 people where no one competes in D-I athletics. Everyone’s super fit and athletic, but there’s a couple of people making Olympic teams in our hometown.”

These Rio Games mark Coburn’s second Olympics. She finished ninth in the race four years ago in London. She believes Monday’s bronze could be just a starting point for American women in the event.

“I really think in the next four, eight years, we’re going to have more and more women winning medals,” she said after her race.

Her American teammate Colleen Quigley finished eighth with a personal-best time of 9:21.1, and Courtney Frerichs was 1.77 seconds behind her, the 11th finisher across the line.

“I think Emma is a wonderful role model,” Frerichs said. “That’s is why I got into steeplechase. My coach told me to aspire to be like her.”

DOPING

Russian whistleblower Stepanova fears for safety

By EDDIE PELLS

The Associated Press RIO DE JANEIRO – The runner who blew the whistle on the doping scandal in Russia fears for her safety and has switched residences after hackers breached a database that records her whereabouts.

Yulia Stepanova and her husband, Vitaly, were the informers who detailed a state-run doping system in Russia that led to the ouster of the country’s athletes from the Olympic track meet.

Recently, their email was hacked and the password stolen for Stepanova’s account on a database controlled by the World Anti-Doping Agency.

Like hundreds of athletes, Stepanova accesses the WADA system to enter her whereabouts, so doping-control officers can find her if she’s selected for out-of-competition testing. The database contains personal contact information, such as phone numbers and

addresses.

“If something happens to us, you should know it’s not an accident,” she said Monday in a videoconference with reporters.

“We are trying to take every measure possible to keep ourselves safe, which is why we moved. At the same Yulia time, we realized if Stepanova somebody really wanted to do something to us, they would probably succeed.”

Stepanova was part of the Russian doping system for years, but after being cast aside by the country’s track team, she and her husband, a former worker for the Russian anti-doping agency, approached WADA with their information.

They moved to the United States, fearing a stay in Russia could lead to harm.

It took years for WADA to respond

to their account. After an independent investigation, both that agency and track’s governing body, the IAAF, recommended Russia’s ouster from the Olympic track meet, but also said Stepanova’s own doping ban should be set aside so she could be eligible to compete in Rio de Janeiro this month. But the International Olympic Committee said no, ruling that because of her role in doping, she could not be accepted.

Probably for the better, Stepanova said, considering the steady stream of stories about violence that have marred these games.

“While I hear the news about what is happening there, at some level, I’m even glad I didn’t go there,” Stepanova said. “Because if someone wanted to hurt us, I think it would be very easy to do it there. So, perhaps it’s all for the best.”

The Stepanovs said they don’t regret taking the whistleblower role.

They didn’t spare criticism of the IOC and its president, Thomas Bach. Vitaly

Stepanov labeled the committee’s offer to bring them to the Olympics to watch the games as VIP guests “a bribe.”

“They never tried to understand our situation,” Stepanova said. “They simply say whatever is going to serve them. Yes, I admitted I was part of that system. However, I decided I no longer wanted to be part of that system and I told the truth.”

Stepanova, 30, said the Olympic snub does not mark the end of her career. She will continue training with hopes of competing in races this winter.

In the meantime, she served up a chilling reminder about the stakes involved in being a whistleblower.

WADA said only Stepanova’s password was stolen, and that it is monitoring the database to make sure the information is secure.

“I started getting anxious, wondering who needs this information,” she said. “So we decided it would be safer if we relocate.”

GOLF: U.S. SENIOR OPEN

Close to death 10 years ago, Sauers claims senior major

By MITCH STACY

The Associated Press UPPER ARLINGTON, Ohio – A decade after battling a rare illness that almost killed him and kept him off the golf course for seven years, Gene Sauers celebrated his first victory on the senior tour.

Sauers closed with a 1-under-par 69 and took advantage of another collapse

by Miguel Angel Jimenez to win the rain-delayed U.S. Senior Open on Monday.

The 53-year-old from Georgia finished with three straight pars to go from a one-shot deficit to a one-shot victory over Jimenez and Billy Mayfair at Scioto Country Club. He finished with a 3-under 277 for the tournament.

“It hasn’t sunk in yet,” he said. “It’s been a long time, and I’m at a loss for words right now.”

The victory caps an amazing comeback for Sauers 10 years removed from almost dying. He was incorrectly diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, spent seven weeks in the hospital and was given a 25 percent chance of survival. Eventually he was diagnosed with Stevens-Johnson syndrome, a rare disorder of the skin and mucous membranes that causes the skin on the extremities to burn from the inside out.

Some days, he couldn’t even get off the couch.

“It means the world to me,” he said.

“I saw the light at the end of that tunnel, and I was heading there. The good Lord stopped me and backed me up and said, no, you’re not done yet. It’s just unbelievable to not play golf, not touch a golf club for seven years and to come out and to win a major golf tournament on a hard golf course.”

Losing Lackey wouldn’t end Cubs’ hopes When Joe Maddon saw an irregularity in John Lackey’s body language Sunday, he made a beeline for the mound and removed his starter. The manager knows small problems can turn into big problems quickly.

It wouldn’t be the end of the world if the Cubs were to lose Lackey, who has a stiff right shoulder. That’s not a knock against the big right-hander. It’s a reflection of how talented the roster is and a recognition that some players are more valuable than others. It’s why some get paid more, although to this day no one has been able to explain Edwin Jackson’s contract.

But as the Cubs march toward the playoffs, it raises the question of which player the team could afford to lose if it wants to win a World Series this season.

These are the kinds of talk-radio debates that come up when it’s August and a team is leading its division by 12 games.

The discussion comes down to Dexter Fowler and Jake Arrieta. I know Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo are locked in a battle for the National League Most Valuable Player award.

Their statistics are terrific. Kyle Hendricks has been the team’s best pitcher.

But we saw how the Cubs are when Fowler, the leadoff hitter, isn’t around to get on base and give Rizzo and Bryant

VIEWS Rick Morrissey someone to drive in. The team is 58-26 when he has played this season and 1517 when he hasn’t.

This is a good time to remind you that the Cubs weren’t even supposed to have Fowler in 2016. He was primed to sign with the Orioles and then had a spring-training change of heart. Where would they be without this guy? Probably battling with the Cardinals for the division lead.

If the Cubs want to win a World Series, they’ll need Arrieta at his best in the playoffs. There’s really no wiggle room here. If he were lost to injury, you’d have a playoff rotation of Jon Lester, Hendricks, Lackey and Jason Hammel. Not nearly good enough. The Cubs were not the same team when Arrieta was off his game this season.

When they struggled in July, he was 0-3 with a 4.88 ERA. True, we don’t know how the Cubs would be without Bryant and Rizzo.

The team hasn’t had to deal with their absence. But we’ve seen what they are without Fowler, and we’ve seen what

they are when Arrieta struggles.

I’m going with Arrieta. You need a shutdown starter in the postseason. No Arrieta, no World Series.

••• The Olympic swimming competition is done, a development that has landlubbing NFL fans celebrating. But even the most chlorine averse among us has to admit that what Michael Phelps accomplished in Rio was pretty cool.

The best swimmer in history came away with five gold medals and a silver medal. He did it at 31, which isn’t ancient, although it might be AARP-card worthy by swimming standards. He won the 200-meter butterfly and the 200 individual medley, and grabbed silver in the 100 butterfly. His other three golds came in relays, which he dominated.

How did this happen? Easy: a combination of freakish natural ability, a body built for swimming and an aura that had competitors behind even before they started. You can’t teach 6-foot-4, an 80-inch wingspan, and hands and feet that seem better suited for a platypus.

It’s why no one should be surprised if Phelps competes in Tokyo in 2020. He has gone out of his way to say Rio was his last stand, but two things say “not

so fast:” One, it’s hard for these people to let go. The lure of medals, money and affirmation every four years is very difficult to abandon. Look at former American swimmer Dara Torres, who competed in the 2008 Olympics at 41.

Two, it’s possible Phelps could own Tokyo. No one has stepped forward to be the next big name in so many different events. No one looks remotely close to being the next Michael Phelps, no easy task.

He sneaked up on me in these Olympics. Maybe I wasn’t paying much attention to the buildup or perhaps I thought NBC was playing him up the way it always does with stars (see Missy Franklin). But I didn’t expect Phelps to come away from these Games as one of the two biggest stories of swimming, along with Katie Ledecky.

Rio didn’t look like it was going to be the done deal for Phelps that Athens, Beijing and London were. And then it was.

So why not Tokyo? He’ll take a year or two off, then dip a toe in the pool. You watch.
