Pantry to host ‘mid-construction’ open house I wrote a couple of weeks ago about how embarrassed I was that a bin of nonperishable food had been sitting in my living room half the summer when I was supposed to have dropped it off at a local food pantry.

I made good on my promise and delivered the food donated by Lundahl Middle School to the Crystal Lake Food Pantry the following Saturday.

This week, I was pleasantly surprised to hear from Bill Eich, president of the pantry.

The Crystal Lake Food Pantry is in the process of building a new facility about eight times its current size at 42 East St. near downtown.

It is hosting a “mid-construction” open house from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday and invites the public to attend.

The pantry has outgrown its current space of about 3,500 square feet at 257 King St. The new facility, when it opens sometime near the beginning of December, has 30,000 square feet of space and will be more of a community center.

Plans are for a shopping area, volunteer

WASHINGTON – After scanning the vast reaches of the cosmos for Earth-like planets where life might exist, astronomers have found one right next door.

A planet that’s rocky like Earth and only slightly bigger has been discovered orbiting Proxima Centauri, the nearest star to our solar system, scientists reported Wednesday. It is probably in the not-too-hot, not-too-cold Goldilocks Zone where liquid water – a key to life – is possible, if the planet has an atmosphere.

And it is a mere 4.22 light-years from Earth, or nearly 25 trillion miles.

It is easily the closest potentially habitable planet ever detected outside our solar system.

Huntley’s Justin Domingo back on field after battling Hodgkin’s lymphoma

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com

“[Justin Domingo’s] fight and work ethic is amazing. Cancer’s such a terrible thing for anyone to go through. The progress he’s made from last year is pretty incredible”

HUNTLEY – Justin Domingo often missed more days than he attended at Huntley High School last winter, frequently staying home to sleep, or just be sick, after another chemotherapy session had sapped his energy.

The five months after Domingo learned he had Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a tumor between his heart and lungs, were rough. Domingo’s family knew the survival rate was favorable – about 88 percent – but he was frustrated not only by feeling crummy, but the training he was missing for football.

Domingo went to school at 3 p.m. some days to hang out with teammates, just to feel a part of the team. There were no guarantees as to how well he would come back, although in his mind, there were no doubts.

The port in his chest, through which the drugs were pumped to attack the tumor, was removed in late March.

When that wound had healed, he started lifting weights. By the end of school, less than two months later, Domingo bench-pressed 335 pounds.

Domingo (5-foot-10, 285 pounds) basically had not lifted weights for five months, went through body-ravaging chemotherapy and in two months increased his bench press by 60 pounds.

“What’s really weird is that I was stronger after cancer,” said Domingo, now a senior. “I went up from 275 last year. It didn’t take me that long.”

Huntley’s coaches and players marveled at Domingo’s speedy recovery, although they were not completely shocked.

“We were surprised for sure,” Red Raiders coach Matt Zimolzak said.

“Most people that I know who have had these types of issues have become weaker, slimmed down and were not the same person afterward. Justin’s always been battling. He never gives up on anything he does. He’s one of the strongest kids on the team now.”

Through his tribulations, Domingo knew the opportunity in front of him, a starting guard spot on a team that won the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division title last season and expects to compete for the FVC championship this fall.

Domingo will line up at 7 p.m. Friday at Red Raider Stadium as Huntley hosts Jacobs in its FVC opener. Guard

Diggins Library plans referendum to shuffle tax money for maintenance

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com HARVARD – Harvard Diggins Library plans to ask for voter approval of a referendum to shuffle tax money to pay for building maintenance and operations after a construction bond is paid off.

The library sold a little less than $2 million in construction bonds almost 20 years ago to pay for its new building and that money is set to be paid off in 2019. About $50 comes out of a resident’s property tax bill to go toward the bonds, based on the average home value of $125.000, said City Administrator David Nelson.

Now the library wants to essentially take that money and put it toward its general levy. Several large maintenance projects loom and library officials hope to modernize the space as well.

The Harvard Park District is pursuing a similar request with its $1.9 million

swimming pool debt, also set to be paid off in 2019, Nelson said.

This is the best way to get needed funding, because people are used to paying the current tax rate, said Karen Sutera, director of the library.

“A referendum is the best way to get that money that will be least painful for taxpayers,” she said “We aren’t asking for more. We’re simply asking to take the money they are already paying to go toward general operations instead of toward the bond.”

The measure will most likely appear on the April 2017 ballot. If approved, the library wouldn’t receive that revenue until after the bonds are paid off in 2019. A 2015 facilities audit indicates that the building must undergo significant projects within the next five to 10 years, like roof and floor replacements, parking lot repavement and plumbing and emergency alarm system work.

“That is our biggest concern – making sure we have enough funds to maintain,” Sutera said. “We will obviously try to work in some new features as funding permits.”

Crystal Lake Public Library and Algonquin Area Public Library officials are mulling major capital plans as well.

Voters will have a chance in November to give opinion on whether the city should borrow $30.1 million to replace the Crystal Lake library. Algonquin library board members recently took the first steps toward a $7.4 million facilities overhaul.

First Ward Alderman Ron Burlingame, who also serves on the library board, said that while he isn’t a heavy user of the library – located in the first ward – himself, he recognizes its inherent value and favors the proposal.

“How could I not support something like that?” he said. “We have very little funds for the maintenance required over the next five, 10, 15 years.”

6 PRAIRIE GROVE

Former police officer’s on-duty DUI trial begins

Bensenville man accused of crashing patrol vehicle into pole while drunk

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A trial began this week for a former Prairie Grove police officer who was charged with DUI while on duty after he allegedly crashed his patrol vehicle into a pole.

Oscar Baez, of Bensenville, was reportedly driving a 2011 Ford Expedition patrol vehicle on Gracy Road about 10:30 p.m. Nov. 29, 2015, when he crossed Route 31 and struck a utility pole.

In addition to the driving under the influence charge, Baez was also cited for disregarding a stop sign and was later indicted in January on one count of official misconduct. The Class 3 felony could bar him from becoming a police officer again if he is convicted.

McHenry County Judge Michael

Feetterer is presiding over the bench trial.

Baez began working as a part-time officer with the department in 2011, and resigned from his position one day afOscar Baez ter the crash.

Prosecutors argued the defendant was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the crash. Baez told police officers he had consumed two glasses of eggnog roughly four hours before his scheduled 3 p.m. shift.

McHenry County Sheriff’s Sgt. Alan Sabol said Baez told him he was traveling 20 mph and tried to stop at the posted stop sign when his brakes failed.

Several officers who responded to the scene testified Wednesday that there were no skid marks present near the scene of the crash.

Sabol said the damage to the vehicle was not consistent with Baez’s statements as to the rate of speed he was traveling. The utility pole was also snapped at the base, indicating that Baez was likely driving faster than he admitted, Sabol said.

After he completed all of the initial field sobriety tests at the Prairie Grove Police Department, Baez declined any

further testing but told police, “Those glasses of eggnog must have been bigger than I thought.”

Based on the crash, the smell of alcohol on Baez’s breath, his admission to drinking earlier in the day and the failure of a sobriety test, Sabol concluded the defendant was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the crash.

Sabol said he believed Baez likely drank more than two glasses of alcohol and consumed it later than 11 a.m., because, based on his training and prior experience, the odor present on Baez’s breath would not come from someone who claimed to have consumed alcohol about 12 hours before.

Sabol also said Baez’s demeanor was “care free” and that if he were wrongly being accused of the charges he would have been “very upset and very angry.”

Baez’s attorney, James McCoy, asked Sabol if he had ever met the defendant before, and if he knew what his demeanor was after what was considered to be a crash with a substantial impact.

Sabol said he had not met Baez before the evening of the crash.

The trial will resume Oct. 13.

Crystal Lake woman pleads guilty to stealing $197K in income tax fraud

By NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – A 34-year-old Crystal Lake woman pleaded guilty Wednesday to stealing more than $197,000 from the U.S., according to the U.S. Department of Justice’s Tax Division.

Per the plea agreement, Nellyvette Mojica admitted that from February 2012 to July 2015 she was participating in a scheme to steal money from the U.S. by filing fraudulent income tax returns. According to the plea agreement, Mojica filed fraudulent

tax returns by using the names of individuals without their knowledge or consent. Mojica then deposited them into her bank accounts, knowing they were the proceeds of the fraudulent tax returns.

Mojica admitted that she caused 81 fraudulent tax refunds – totaling more than $197,000 – to be deposited into accounts she was in control of, according to the U.S. Department of Justice’s Tax Division. Mojica also admitted that following the deposit of these fraudulently obtained refunds, she withdrew some of the money for

her own use, according to the Tax Division.

Mojica’s sentencing is scheduled to take place Dec. 7. According to the Tax Division, Mojica faces a statutory maximum sentence of 10 years in prison, three years of supervised release, a fine of up to $250,000 and $197,000 in restitution to the IRS. Mojica is the second defendant who pleaded guilty in this case, as her co-defendant, Rose Alverio of River Grove also pleaded guilty to stealing government funds. Alverio is scheduled to be sentenced on Nov. 10.

Palatine man pleaded guilty to giving fatal heroin dose to McHenry woman

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com

and died at home, authorities said.

The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office worked closely with the state’s attorney’s office and coroner’s office after Carroll’s death to obtain an arrest warrant.

McHenry County Sheriff’s Detective Kyle Mandernack, with the permission of her family, used Carroll’s cellphone to set up a drug buy with Trigg. Authorities said Trigg, not knowing Caroll had died two days earlier, showed up at her home with heroin and marijuana in his car and was arrested.

Mandernack never obtained a search warrant, and Tucker argued in court that the text message exchange was a violation of the defendant’s privacy rights. This was the first time the issue had been raised in Illinois, Feetterer said.

Feetterer ruled in January the text messages could be used by prosecutors and that Trigg had no reasonable expectation of privacy when it came to the text messages found on Carroll’s phone.

WOODSTOCK – A former Crystal Lake man was sentenced to six years in prison after he admitted to delivering a fatal dose of heroin to a McHenry woman.

Herman B. Trigg, 32, of Palatine, pleaded guilty Wednesday to drug-induced homicide, a Class X felony. In addition to prison, he also Herman B. will serve three years of Trigg mandatory supervised release.

The felony charge is punishable by a minimum of six and up to 30 years in prison. He will be required by state law to serve 75 percent of the sentence. Trigg will receive credit for the 13 months served in McHenry County Jail.

McHenry County Judge Michael Feetterer accepted the plea and found that the offense was committed because

of addiction or use of alcohol or drugs.

Trigg’s attorney, Assistant Public Defender Grant Tucker, said these cases are complex because it can be difficult to prove the drugs delivered were the ones that killed someone – especially if that person has an addiction.

“There’s no real way to know if the drugs that day were the drugs that killed her two or three days later,” Tucker said.

According to the McHenry County Coroner, there were 21 drug overdose deaths through May 2015 – nine of which were heroin-related.

Assistant State’s Attorney Randi Freese said the plea agreement was made after consideration of the facts and circumstances in the case.

Trigg, who was out on bond on another pending felony drug case, was picked up on an arrest warrant in July 2015 and charged with drug-induced homicide after authorities said he delivered the controlled substance in April 2015 to 30-year-old Melissa A. Carroll. She later ingested the drugs

Annual benefit ride to raise money for child with muscular dystrophy

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com SPRING GROVE – Spring Grove restaurant KC’s Cabin is hosting its second annual benefit ride Sunday to raise money and awareness for a 9-year-old with a muscle degeneration disease.

The benefit ride will begin and end at KC’s Cabin, 309 Route 173, with the ride scheduled to start at 10 a.m.

Proceeds from this event will go toward Raising Anthony, a fundraiser to help Anthony Leston of Gurnee, who was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy before he turned 4. The purpose of the ride is to help spread awareness of the disease and raise money for Anthony’s medical bills and helping the Leston family make their home more wheelchair accessible.

A few years ago, Anthony’s parents, Julie and Matt, saw a change in Anthony’s movements.

“We noticed he wasn’t going up the stairs properly, and he was falling a lot,” Julie said. “So I took him for a gen-

“This is just an ugly and very progressive disease, and we want to help Anthony walk as long as he possibly can.”

Anthony Leston’s mother eral screening, but I knew something serious was happening.”

After several screenings, Anthony was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy in February 2011. The disease is a fatal genetic disorder affecting male children that causes progressive muscle degeneration. Symptoms include muscle weakness and serious medical problems for the heart and lungs. The disease can cause the afflicted to lose use of their legs before their teenage years and will typically result in death before their late 20s.

“He will likely be in a wheelchair in just a couple of years,” Julie said. “He

wants to play sports like soccer, but he won’t be able to. He wants to do things that any other child without the disease will be able to do growing up.”

With the combined costs of medical care, seeing out-of-state doctors and making their home accessible for Anthony, the Leston family is in need of financial assistance.

“I feel guilty asking people for money, but we need help,” Julie said. “This is just an ugly and very progressive disease, and we want to help Anthony walk as long as he possibly can. We’re struggling to pay for all that requires to make that happen.”

The benefit ride costs $20 a rider and an additional $20 a passenger. Registration starts at 9:30 a.m., an hour before the ride begins. Along with the benefit ride, the event also will feature raffles, auctions, food and music back at the Spring Grove restaurant.

Those that can’t make the event but still want to support the cause can donate by visiting Raising Anthony’s GoFundMe page.

Lake in the Hills police take first in traffic safety challenge

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – Lake in the Hills police are among the best in the state at keeping their roads safe, according to a statewide traffic safety program.

Officers from the Lake in the Hills Police Department attended an award ceremony Aug. 17 at the Tinley Park Convention Center where they were honored with a first place award for the 2015-16 Illinois Traffic Safety Challenge for departments of 36 to 50 sworn officers.

The Illinois Traffic Safety Challenge, coordinated by the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police Traffic Committee, is a friendly competition between Illinois law enforcement agencies that determines how effective these agencies are in their highway safety programs.

“We’re very proud of this accomplishment considering that our officers played a vital role in making this happen,” police Sgt. Eric Decker said.

Agencies are judged on their enforcement initiatives, problem solving and what departmental policies they’ve created to support traffic enforcement campaign efforts.

While Lake in the Hills won third place last year, this year they received an even greater honor by taking first in their category.

“One reason why we were honored is we started running programs that we haven’t run in the past and are fairly unique,” Decker said.

Some of these new programs include the citizen enforcement program, which encourages residents to report any traffic violations they see, and the summer slowdown campaign, which strictly enforces speeding violations in residential areas.

“We want to remind everyone that traffic safety is a paramount of importance in Lake In the Hills,” Decker said. “You’re not just putting yourself in danger when you’re speeding, but you’re also risking the lives of others. This honor shows we take traffic safety very seriously.”

In addition to Lake in the Hill’s honor, the Algonquin Police Department finished in second place and the Woodstock Police Department finished in third place for municipals with 36 to 50 officers.

• DOMINGO

Continued from page A3 Andrew Pertzborn and center Cody Gaynor are the returning starters on the offensive line, while Domingo, A.J. Zeis and Joey Wilson will man the other spots. “(Domingo) is doing better than he was last season,” Pertzborn said. “It was hard. You don’t like to see your friend and teammate go through something as hard as that. We’re like family, and it’s like seeing your own brother go through that.”

It raised the other Raiders’ spirits to see Domingo stop by in the offseason, even when he could not lift. Many of them, such as running back Mike Ahmer, shaved their heads at Huntley’s St. Baldrick’s event in support of Domingo.

“His fight and work ethic is amazing,” Ahmer said of Domingo’s progress. “Cancer’s such a terrible thing for anyone to go through. The progress he’s made from last year is pretty incredible. That (335 bench press) was insane.”

Domingo had dealt with meningitis before the season and felt similar symptoms after the football season concluded. His mother, Victoria, took him to Elgin’s Sherman Hospital to be examined and the tumor was discovered around Thanksgiving.

Huntley’s coaches still planned on Domingo, who started a couple of games

last season, being an integral part of the line this year.

Zimolzak said the support Huntley showed Domingo, which included a dodgeball tournament where money was donated to the family, was phenomenal.

“Justin needed that support, and it was great we had that for him,” Zimolzak said. “That kid is a worker. He was

down for a while, but he’s not out. He gets right back into it. Football and lifting and the workouts were something that a player like him needs to get back.”

Domingo said doctors told him the cancer is gone for now, although it could come back. His last checkup was in June, so another will come in September. He has spoken with other cancer victims and learned tips on taking

completed their family with their three sons.

LJ was raised in Palatine and graduated from Palatine High School in 1994. After high school, he worked at the Palatine Police Department as a police assistant for a number of years before obtaining his associate degree in criminal justice from Harper Community College. In 2002, LJ entered the Police Academy at University of Illinois Urbana-Champagne, where he graduated at the top of his class. He then began his 14 year tenure with the Huntley Police Department, where he earned the title of Sergeant. After marriage, the couple relocated to McHenry.

LJ actively was involved with the Citizens Police Academy & Alumni Association, or CPA. LJ treasured working with CPA and they, in turn, adored working with him. He was a passionate hunter and cherished his yellow lab, Cady. LJ could light up any room and was very well-respected within his community.

It was his three sons, Leo, Ben, and Sammy, who gave him the strength to hold on and fight through his illness. LJ was known as a beloved father, devoted husband and valued friend to all and will live on within everyone who knew him.

He is survived by his wife, Kim; his three sons, Leonard Jeffery “Leo” Marak, Bennett Adam Marak, and Samuel Reed Marak; his parents, Leonard F. and Nancy C. Marak of Palatine; his sister, Darcey (Garth) Martino of

Palatine; his brother, Adam (Jessica) Marak of Lake in the Hills; his nieces and nephews, Mia, Anna, Elise, and Brandon Martino, Tyler and Summer Marak, and Jordan Grinnell; his inlaws, Susan and Jeffery Grinnell of Lakewood; his brother-in-law, Kevin Grinnell of Lakewood; many aunts and uncles; many cousins; and too many lifelong friends to count.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents on both sides, John and Helen Koch and Leonard and Anna Marak.

Friends are invited to visit with his family from 4 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 25, 2016, at Justen Funeral Home & Crematory, 3700 Charles J. Miller Road, McHenry, IL 60050.

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – An honest assessment of your situation will be required if you want to get things moving in the right direction. Look at your options and adjust your plans accordingly. Don’t let your emotions keep you from making the best or right choice. Strive to be progressive, not aggressive.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Refrain from showing your feelings. An argument will not help you solve any of your problems. Listen and learn before taking action in order to avoid backlash.

Focus on love and personal improvement.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Stand on guard. There is a lesson to be learned, but if you proceed

with caution, it won’t cost you emotionally or financially. Protect your property and move on.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – No one will take care of your business the same way you will.

You’ll be led astray by someone trying to take advantage of you. Emotionally inspired spending is discouraged.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Don’t wait for someone to take the reins. Ask questions and make choices and decisions based on what works for you. Don’t give in to others’ demands.

Recognize emotional deceit when you see it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Emotional manipulation is apparent in the workplace. Don’t trust anyone to give you the lowdown when it comes to business; find out for yourself.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Improve your

surroundings and make adjustments that will deter complaints or criticism. Partnerships will be taxing. Take a moment to rethink and revamp your strategy.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Be careful when in tense or tempting situations. An honest and open approach to life and relationships will be necessary. Be reasonable and realistic. Make your expectations clear.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Stabilize your financial situation by locking in your investments and protecting your assets and possessions. Now is not the time to share. Look out for your own interests.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Trust what you know, not what others tell you. Refuse to let emotional blackmail deter you from doing

what’s best for you. Learn from your experience and make progress by being smart and working hard.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Strong emotions will cause you to do things you normally wouldn’t do. Take precautions and force yourself to think before you make a regrettable mistake. Deception and disillusionment are apparent.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Someone will withhold information. If something isn’t clear, you are best off biding your time until you can figure out exactly what’s taking place. Be safe and avoid a costly mistake.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Take charge and get things done. Empty promises will set you back and cost you time and money. Take charge and bring about the changes you deem necessary.

By SARA BURNETT

The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration says a pending move

by Illinois’ largest public-pension fund would increase the state’s required payment by hundreds of millions of dollars, potentially leading to higher taxes or massive cuts to education and social services already suffering amid a budget crisis.

The board of the Teachers Retirement System, which serves more than 400,000 teachers outside of Chicago, is scheduled to vote Friday on whether to lower its expected rate of return on investments. A reduction would trigger a larger contribution from the state, where the Republican governor and Democrat-led Legislature have gone more than a year without agreeing on how to close a multibillion-dollar budget hole or address a $111 billion unfunded pension liability.

The retirement system won’t make public the recommended change or its impact on Illinois’ payment for the next fiscal year until Friday’s meet-

News from across the state Prices up, choices down on Illinois health insurance market

CHICAGO – Higher prices and fewer choices on the Illinois marketplace under President Barack Obama’s health insurance law will make choosing a plan for 2017 a potentially frustrating experience for families who buy their own coverage, according to information released Wednesday by the Illinois Department of Insurance.

Statewide, an average price increase of 43 percent is ahead for a popular type of middle-tier coverage used as a benchmark under the health law, the department said. The price of that benchmark plan – the second lowest cost Silver plan – will increase by as much as 71 percent in Madison, Monroe and St. Clair counties.

Lack of choice is another problem. In eight counties, only one company – Blue Cross Blue Shield – will sell individual coverage for 2017. Major insurers such as Aetna and UnitedHealthcare have left the health law’s marketplaces in Illinois and

ing, spokesman Dave Urbanek said Wednesday.

When the system last changed its assumption – from 8 percent to 7.5 percent in 2014 – it cost Illinois an additional $200 million. That’s almost the total combined state funding for six public universities last year, Rauner’s senior adviser for revenue and pensions warned.

“Unforeseen and unknown automatic cost increases will have a devastating impact on the state’s ability to provide adequate resources to social service programs and education,” Michael Mahoney stated in a memo sent Monday to Rauner’s chief of staff. He also called the lack of public discussion ahead of Friday’s vote “troubling.”

The possible board action comes as pension systems nationwide are reporting lackluster returns for the most recent fiscal year, and analysts and credit rating agencies are increasingly pressuring them to lower assumptions to ensure there’s enough money to pay benefits. While retirement systems set their estimated rate of return based on 20 or 30 years of projections, some an-

alysts predict the coming years won’t meet many systems’ expectations.

Several funds already have dropped their projections, including the $185 billion New York State and Local Retirement System, which lowered its assumed rate from 7.5 percent to 7 percent in September. Other major pension systems have said they’re considering it.

Illinois’ Teachers Retirement System reported a 4.6 percent return for the 2015 fiscal year. It will release preliminary returns for the fiscal year that ended June 30 on Friday, Urbanek said.

Illinois’ pension problems go back decades, however, due largely to state lawmakers voting for years to skip or short the annual payment. Illinois now has the worst-funded pensions of any state, with the accounts holding about 42 percent of what’s needed.

To cover benefits as promised and make up for years of missed payments and investment returns, Illinois’ contribution to its five pension funds this year will be about $7.8 billion – roughly one-fifth of its general revenue fund.

Republican state Senate leader Christine Radogno, a key Rauner ally, said she agreed the system should lower its rate when it did so in 2014, and it may need to do so again. But she took issue on Wednesday that the board could vote within minutes of receiving a briefing from its actuaries on Friday, and without discussing it with Rauner or legislative leaders. She said they were briefed in 2014.

“I just think that needs to happen again because of the impact on taxpayers,” said Radogno, who wants the board to delay its vote.

Urbanek said the board has historically taken the vote in August of every other year because of a deadline to provide the information to state budget officials.

The 13-person board includes six people elected by system members.

They include vice president Cinda Klickna, who also is president of the Illinois Education Association and has clashed with Rauner over his anti-union positions. Rauner appoints the other members, although three of the seats are vacant.

other states because of costs. In Illinois, the nonprofit Land of Lincoln Health is folding after suffering heavy losses.

Consumers will be able to shop around and possibly switch health plans for 2017 when enrollment begins Nov. 1. But many parts of the state will have fewer than 20 plans to choose from, the insurance department said.

Muggy weather could yield bountiful harvest

ROCKFORD – Crop experts said the recent heat and humidity that has hit Illinois is ideal for the state’s soybean and corn crops.

Nikki Keltner is a program coordinator for the University of Illinois Extension, which covers Jo Daviess, Stephenson and Winnebago counties. She said early ear counts indicate above-average corn production in the area unless there is severe weather or other issues.

“We look to be in great shape,” she said. “A lot can happen between now and harvest.”

Rockford Township farmer Brent Pollard said his soybean crop is one of the best-looking he has ever had on his land.

“The crops, especially the corn, really like that warm, moist weather,”

Chicago Board of Education OKs $5.4B budget amid protests

CHICAGO – The Chicago Board of Education unanimously approved a $5.4 billion budget Wednesday that relies on increased property taxes and additional state funding that is far from certain.

The vote by Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s hand-picked school board followed protests by teachers and parents in the nation’s third-largest school district who say the plan calls for too many layoffs and cuts.

Advocacy groups also have expressed concern that the budget calls for additional borrowing for a cash-strapped district that has seen its credit rating slashed to “junk” status has borrowed to pay day-to-day bills.

The Civic Federation, a business-backed watchdog, says the school board must account for how it would close a funding gap if state lawmakers never approve $215 million to help cover the cost of teacher pensions.

School CEO Forrest Claypool said if the

ATF agents join local probe into Chicago fire that killed 4

CHICAGO – Federal agents have joined Chicago police and fire investigators in trying to determine the cause of a suspicious fire that killed four, including three children.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office said Wednesday the youngest victim, 3-month-old Melanie Watson, died of injuries suffered when her father leaped with her from their burning thirdfloor apartment. Her death was ruled a homicide.

Officials said the autopsies of the two other children, ages 7 and 4, are complete but results are being withheld pending formal identification.

The death of the fourth victim, 56-yearold Kirk Johnson, was also ruled a homicide.

Officials said Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agents joined the investigation after findings thought to pinpoint the cause of the blaze were inconclusive.

Chicago police said they’re questioning a person of interest.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Astronaut breaks U.S. record: 521 days in space

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Astronaut Jeffrey Williams has a new record for NASA under his space belt.

The commander of the International Space Station marked a U.S. recording-breaking 521st day in orbit Wednesday, a number accumulated over four flights. That surpasses the 520-day record set by Scott Kelly, whose one-year space station mission ended in March.

By the time Williams returns to Earth in two weeks to close out his latest half-year trip, he will have logged 534 days off the planet for NASA.

Yellowstone tourists face detour because of fire Some tourists heading to Yellowstone National Park during the busy summer season were facing an hourlong detour Wednesday as a wildfire in neighboring Grand Teton National Park kept a highway closed.

Major tourist areas in both parks are open as the National Park Service holds events to celebrate its 100th anniversary this week.

A route leading into Yellowstone’s South Entrance was shut down, so visitors coming from the south through Wyoming had to take a detour

into Idaho. But firefighters hope cooler weather slows the flames over the next couple of days.

Judge delays sentencing in foiled bomb plot

WICHITA, Kan. – A federal judge delayed a sentencing decision Wednesday for a Kansas man who admitted aiding a wannabe Islamic State jihadist’s plan to detonate what they thought was a bomb at Fort Riley.

Alexander Blair has admitted his role in a foiled plan to kill or maim as many U.S. service members as possible at the Kansas military post. Blair has said that “nobody is perfect” and blames a genetic disorder for allowing others to take advantage of him.

U.S. District Judge Daniel Crabtree is weighing that and other factors as he calculates how much prison time, if any, the 29-year-old Topeka man should serve. But after hearing testimony from a psychologist Wednesday, the judge concluded he wanted some time to go over the material before handing down a sentence, the U.S. attorney’s office said.

No new sentencing date was immediately set.

Blair pleaded guilty in May to a conspiracy count that carries up to five years’ imprisonment.

Clinton maintaining stay-the-course strategy on foundation, emails

By KEN THOMAS and CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Hillary Clinton is sidestepping new questions about nearly 15,000 recently discovered emails or her family’s charitable foundation – a stay-the-course strategy sure to be tested in the sprint to Election Day. Clinton has no immediate plans – in an interview or a news conference – to explain the FBI’s discovery of another batch of emails or personally clarify how her administration would wall off the organization founded by her husband, former President Bill Clinton, if she’s elected president.

Instead, her top campaign officials and allies are playing defense, arguing that the foundation has helped millions of people around the globe while Trump’s business interests carry their own blind spots.

“Hillary Clinton doesn’t have a conflict of interest on charitable work – that’s all it is,” Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook said in an interview Wednesday with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “We need to look a lot more closely at Donald Trump.”

The Clinton campaign figures her late-summer advantage gives her few incentives to personally push back against the email criticism or allegations of pay-for-play.

Trump, helped by a revamped campaign team, has called for a special prosecutor to investigate the foundation and said it should be shut down immediately. The Republican nominee, who donated to the Clinton Foundation, has repeatedly charged that his opponent, while secretary of state, provided access to foundation contributors in exchange for donations to the charity at the heart of Bill Clinton’s post-presidential legacy.

Clinton leads Trump in national and state polls, leaving many of her aides and supporters to conclude that addressing the issue isn’t worth the risk to her electoral standing. But the issue is one that ties into voters larger questions about her trustworthiness – a problem that will follow her into the White House should she win.

Traveling in California, the Democratic nominee has kept out of the public eye for days, spending most of her time wooing celebrities, financial titans and technology moguls at private fundraisers. On Tuesday alone, she raised more than $6.2 million at four events in Southern California and the Bay Area.

Her last full-blown news conference was December 2015 in Iowa, more than 260 days. But the questions about emails and the foundation keep piling up, and she is certain to be chal-

On Monday, the State Department said it was reviewing nearly 15,000 previously undisclosed emails recovered as part of the FBI inquiry, which was closed after investigators recommended against criminal charges.

On Tuesday, an Associated Press report found at least 85 people from private interests who met with or had phone conversations scheduled with Clinton while she led the State Department donated to the Clinton foundation.

Combined, the donors contributed as much as $156 million to the charity.

Pushing back, Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon said the AP report relied on “pretty flawed methodology” and said in an interview with MSNBC on Wednesday that Clinton was being held to a different standard than other politicians with charitable work.

“It is only now because she is running for president that the work of the Clinton foundation is being tarred,” Fallon said. “If any American voter is troubled by the idea that the Clintons want to continue working to solve the AIDS crisis on the side while Hillary Clinton is president, then don’t vote for her.”

The former secretary of state addressed questions about her use of a private server only in passing this week, joking with late night talk show Jimmy Kimmel on Monday that, “My emails are so boring,” she said. “We’ve already released, I don’t know, 30,000 plus, so what’s a few more?”

The body of a victim is pulled from the rubble Wednesday after an earthquake in Amatrice, Italy. The magnitude 6.2 quake struck at 3:36 a.m. and was felt across a broad swath of central Italy, including Rome where residents felt a long swaying followed by aftershocks. witnessed major quakes in the past.

Dozens of people were pulled out alive by rescue teams and volunteers that poured in from around Italy.

In the evening, about 17 hours after the quake struck, firefighters pulled a 10-year-old girl alive from the rubble in Pescara del Tronto.

“You can hear something under here. Quiet, quiet,” one rescue worker said, before soon urging her on: “Come on, Giulia, come on, Giulia.”

Cheers broke out when she was pulled out.

And there were wails when bodies emerged.

AMATRICE, Italy – Rescue crews using bulldozers and their bare hands raced to dig out survivors Thursday from a strong earthquake that reduced three central Italian towns to rubble.

The death toll stood at 159, but the number of dead and missing was uncertain given the thousands of vacationers in the area for summer’s final days.

Residents wakened before dawn by the earthquake emerged from their crumbled homes to find what they described as apocalyptic scenes “like Dante’s Inferno,” with entire blocks of buildings turned into piles of sand and rock, thick dust choking the air and a putrid smell of gas.

“The town isn’t here anymore,” said Sergio Pirozzi, the mayor of the hardest-hit town, Amatrice. “I believe the toll will rise.”

The magnitude 6.2 quake struck at 3:36 a.m. on Wednesday and was felt across a broad swath of central Italy, including Rome, where residents woke to a long swaying followed by aftershocks.

The temblor shook the Lazio region and Umbria and Le Marche on the Adriatic coast, a highly seismic area that has

“Unfortunately, 90 percent we pull out are dead, but some make it, that’s why we are here,” said Christian Bianchetti, a volunteer from Rieti who was working in devastated Amatrice where flood lights were set up so the rescue could continue through the night.

Premier Matteo Renzi visited the zone Wednesday, greeted rescue teams and survivors, and pledged that “No family, no city, no hamlet will be left behind.” Italy’s civil protection agency reported the death toll had risen to 159 by late Wednesday; at least 368 others were injured.

Worst affected were the tiny towns of Amatrice and Accumoli near Rieti, 60 miles northeast of Rome, and Pescara del Tronto, 15 miles further east. Italy’s civil protection agency set up tent cities around each hamlet to accommodate the thousands of homeless. In Amatrice, the elderly and children spent the night inside a local sports facility.

Italy’s health minister, Beatrice Lorenzin, visiting the devastated area, said many of the victims were children: The quake zone is a popular spot for Romans with second homes, and the population swells in August when most Italians take their summer holiday before school resumes.

OUR VIEW

Fed up over high taxes Taxpayers fed up with ever-increasing property taxes have more options to voice their displeasure to elected officials, many of whom don’t seem to care.

Voters in Cary and Fox River Grove will join their counterparts in Lakewood in having the opportunity to let their local elected officials know that they’re fed up with their property taxes increasing every year despite diminished property values.

All three villages For the record will have nonbinding referendums on the Disgruntled property taxpayNov. 8 ballot asking ers need to let their elected whether any taxing officials know how they feel bodies within their about excessive taxes at the corporate limits ballot box and through a grassshould be required to roots campaign. seek voter approval by referendum if they want to increase their levies. Governments do not have to go to referendum to raise taxes within the annual rate of inflation under Illinois’ tax cap law.

We expect voters in all three villages will overwhelmingly vote “yes” to the requirement.

While it is a nonbinding referendum, we hope the message resonates with those elected to boards and councils with taxing authority.

McHenry County property owners have the 29th highest tax burden of all counties in the U.S., according to the nonpartisan Tax Foundation.

And Illinois has either the highest or second-highest burden of all 50 states, depending on the study.

Several county residents also recently joined to form Illinois Tax Revolution, a grassroots group that seeks to call attention to frustrated homeowners’ excessive property taxes and to fight for relief.

The group was formed by Dan Aylward of McHenry, who recently made headlines by paying his property tax bill with $1 bills, longtime anti-township activist Bob Anderson of Wonder Lake, McHenry Township Republican Central Committee Chairman Steve Rooney, Republican McHenry County Recorder candidate Joe Tirio and Lakemoor resident Rose Venegas.

Illinois Tax Revolution plans three upcoming rallies, including one at 11 a.m. Aug. 31 at the McHenry County Treasurer’s Office, 2100 N. Seminary Ave., Woodstock.

As Anderson said in a recent Northwest Herald story: “If we’re going to make any changes, it’s going to have to come from a grass-roots effort.”

We expect elected officials will start paying attention.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Ethics agreement not strong enough “Secretary Clinton’s ethics agreement at the time did not preclude other State Department officials from engaging with, or having contact with, the Clinton Foundation,” State Department spokesman Mark Toner told Fox News, following the release of new information on interactions between staff at Hillary Clinton’s State Department and her family’s foundation.

That does not mean that everything Clinton’s senior advisers did was pristine. Rather, it suggests the ethics agreement was not strong enough.

As with the last data release, the new information, provided by the conservative activist group Judicial Watch and Fox News, does not show or imply corruption stemming from the relationship between Clinton and the Clinton Foundation. In fact, emails to and from Clinton confidante Huma Abedin show that access-seekers associated with the foundation often were rebuffed. A

British soccer star seeking a visa to the United States did not get special intervention, even though the request came through a major Clinton Foundation donor and a foundation executive.

Many others apparently got through, according to an AP analysis released Tuesday, which found that “More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money – either personally or through companies or groups – to the Clinton Foundation.” Many of them might have received appointments even had they not contributed. But why were these emails exchanged between State and foundation staff at all?

After promising to avoid any conflict or appearance of conflict, Clinton left ample room for perceptions that access to the Clinton Foundation could enable access to the government. Foundation staff appealed to Clinton’s staff on behalf of donors, including foreign

ones. That contact often did not lead anywhere, but it certainly encouraged corporate and foreign entities to calculate that giving to the Clinton Foundation might pay off in access. Impressions such as these are corrosive.

Bill Clinton said the foundation will reorganize if Clinton becomes president. It will stop taking foreign and corporate donations, and many of its charitable initiatives will be spun off into different institutions. Clinton also said he would leave the foundation’s board and cease fundraising for it. It would have been much better to take these measures when Clinton started at State.

At this point, especially given the emerging record of contacts, they are probably not enough.

The foundation undoubtedly does worthwhile work. Should Clinton win, all of that work and all of the foundation’s assets should be spun off to an organization with no ties to the first family.

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.

God’s absence in our youth

To the Editor: Are you as concerned as I am about what our children face today in this country with the absence of God in the classrooms and elsewhere. The youth are taught to be politically correct, so that they will not offend non-believers, but how will non-believers ever get to know the goodness of the Lord.

During my lifetime, I personally witnessed the life of a women who was placed in an orphanage, one day after birth and was eventually adopted by a loving family. Her name was Mary and all through her life, she was an example to others by giving of herself.

A professor friend of mine told me that he would recommend every school age person read this true story because their belief in life and family will be enhanced.

VIEWS Ramesh Ponnuru flexibility in how they spent welfare funds. Winship concludes that child poverty has fallen since its enactment and is now at an all-time low. He finds similar trends for households in “deep poverty,” defined as having less than half the income that puts you at the poverty line.

His most provocative claim concerns “extreme poverty,” defined as having less than $2 a day to live on.

A 2015 book by sociologists Kathryn Edin and Luke Schaefer reinforced liberal opinion against welfare reform by arguing that it had led to a sharp increase in the percentage of children living in such a condition. Not only does Winship provide data denying that this increase has occurred: He finds that practically no children in the U.S. live in such extreme poverty, or did so at the time welfare was reformed.

The Census Bureau’s official measurements, it is true, show only modest improvement in child poverty since 1996. Winship argues that a more accurate measure of trends should take account of non-cash ben-

Tax-and-spend policies

To the Editor: Michael Walkup is a big-spending liberal who is for larger government and higher property taxes.

While on the Crystal Lake Park Board, Walkup voted to increase property taxes multiple times. Walkup also founded an organization that sought to establish a new property taxing body to oversee water resources. Walkup’s plan was to have unelected board members from Boone and DeKalb counties make decisions on land use in McHenry County.

The plan would have allowed condemnation, eminent domain power and the ability to sell bonds to increase debt while raising property taxes.

Voters overwhelmingly rejected Walkup’s referendum. Imagine a county led

by Walkup, raising property taxes and dictating what owners could or could not do with their own property. Voters can reject him, and his tax-and-spend policies at the next election.

efits that poor households receive, such as food stamps. We should also place some economic value on these households’ health-care benefits. He makes a strong case that the inflation measures of the Congressional Budget Office and the Federal Reserve are superior to the one used by the Census Bureau. Because the Census Bureau overstates inflation, it understates improvements in poor people’s purchasing power.

When he adjusts the data in these and other ways, Winship finds that 13.1 percent of children lived in poverty in 1996 while 7.8 percent did in 2014 (the most recent year with available data).

The families that Edin and Schaefer profiled are living in harrowing conditions, as Winship acknowledges. But he provides evidence that very few households have to get by on less than $2 a day. It’s a situation so rare as to make it impossible to determine reliably whether it has grown more or less prevalent, let alone whether welfare reform caused whatever change occurred.

Winship notes that the deep-poverty trends – again, that’s for households at half the poverty line – improved more for children of single mothers than for other groups. Since welfare reform disproportionately

affected children in single-mother households, that pattern adds to the evidence that the law did not cause deep poverty to rise – and makes it less plausible that welfare reform caused extreme poverty to rise.

While the paper undermines the liberal conventional wisdom on welfare, it also casts doubt on some conservative talking points. Many on the right like to say that we had a war on poverty, and poverty won.

Winship’s data suggests that poverty would have been significantly worse without the safety net. Winship also stresses that welfare reform was enacted alongside an expansion of the earned-income tax credit, which made work pay more for many households.

There is certainly room to argue that we should be doing more to fight poverty in America and doing a better job of allocating public resources.

But Winship’s paper makes a powerful argument that to do so, we should build on the success of welfare reform rather than try to reverse it.

Welfare reform may be the last great bipartisan success story. It was enacted in 1996 by a Republican Congress led by Newt Gingrich and by Democratic President Bill Clinton in response to decades of public frustration with the U.S. system of aid to the poor. At the time, the law had liberal enemies, some of whom resigned from Clinton’s administration in protest of his signing it.

Those enemies have grown in number in recent years. In part that’s because the Democratic Party has moved leftward generally and decided that past compromises can now be revisited. Liberals have also grown more and more convinced over time that welfare reform was a material disaster for the poorest among us and therefore a moral disaster for the nation as a whole. For their side, many conservatives have pronounced the system a failure as well, claiming that its safety-net features have done little to affect poverty rates.

The good news is that claims on both sides are almost certainly wrong. Scott Winship, a careful researcher at the conservative Manhattan Institute, has a new report arguing that welfare reform deserves to be remembered fondly. It imposed work requirements on many welfare recipients and gave states more

The hidden risk to the economy in corporate balance sheets

By BERNARD CONDON The Associated Press

NEW YORK – America has a debt problem, but it’s not what you think.

Yes, the federal government owes trillions of dollars more than it did a few years ago. Yes, Americans are still struggling to pay off mortgages and student loans. But it’s the buildup in debt elsewhere that is most worrying some experts, and the big borrower this time may come as a surprise: Corporate America.

You might think big U.S. companies, if anything, have been too conservative with their finances. They’ve collectively hoarded hundreds of billions of dollars in cash, instead of spending it to hire workers or expand their operations.

The reality is different, and more worrisome. Much of the cash is held by just a precious few companies, while debt is ballooning at other, weaker businesses as investors desperate for income rush to lend to them. These investors could face losses, perhaps steep, if economic growth falters. The broader economy is also vulnerable because companies with more debt have to cut back further and lay off more whenever downturns hit.

“There’s a misconception that companies are swimming in cash,” said Andrew Chang, a director at S&P Global Ratings. “They’re actually drowning in debt.”

It turns out there’s a wealth gap among companies, just as among people. Of the $1.8 trillion in cash that’s sitting in U.S. corporate accounts, half of it belongs to only 25 of the 2,000 com-

Outside of Apple, Google and the rest of the corporate 1 percent, cash has been falling over the past two years even as debt has been rising. It now covers only $15 of every $100 they owe, less than it did even during the financial crisis in 2008 when finances were crumbling.

You don’t have to look hard to find other signs of trouble.

The number of companies that have defaulted so far this year has already passed the total for all of last year, which itself had the most since the financial crisis. Even among companies consid-

ered high-quality, or investment grade, credit-rating agencies said a record number are so stretched financially that they’re one bad quarter or so from being downgraded to “junk” status.

Companies whose debt is already deemed “junk” are in the worst shape in years. To pay back all they owe, they would have to set aside every dollar of their operating earnings over the next eight and a half years, more than twice as long as it would have taken during the 2008 crisis, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch.

The problem with high debt is it

leaves less wiggle room for even seemingly well-run companies if things go wrong.

In March, S&P cut its ratings on Macy’s to BBB, two notches above junk, as competition from internet retailers continues to dig into the department store chain’s sales. The company’s debt, net of cash, has risen over the past three years. Meanwhile, it has spent $5.2 billion buying its own stock, or $1.4 billion more than those shares are worth now, according to data provider FactSet. Companies often buy their shares and take them off the market to goose their earnings per share, a widely watched measure of success.

Oil company Hess also was recently downgraded, mostly because of a plunge in oil prices beyond its control. But its own moves hurt, too. Instead of whittling away at its debt with the cash it raised in recent years from selling parts of its business, it has spent billions buying its stock. Moody’s Investors Service cited Hess’ heavy debt burden when it downgraded the company.

Hess is what ratings agencies call a “fallen angel:” a formerly highly rated corporate borrower that was cut to junk and thus made too risky for many bond funds. Moody’s tallied 55 other fallen angels in the first six months this year.

Despite the warning signs, investors continue to lend to companies as if there is nothing to fear.

They put a net $22.8 billion into mutual funds specializing in corporate bonds in the 12 months through July, lifting total investments via such funds to $144 billion, according to Morningstar.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT THURSDAY, AUGUST 25, 2016

NEW YORK – “Better Call Saul” star Bob Odenkirk has nabbed a book deal to write essays about his life and comic journey.

Random House announced Wednesday that the still-untitled book will explore Odenkirk’s career working at Chicago’s Second City to writing and acting on “Saturday Night Live,” “Late Night with Conan O’Brien,” “Mr. Show,” “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul.”

Random House Executive Editor Ben Greenberg said the book will give Odenkirk’s TV fans who might not know the comedian’s past “a look at the remarkable writer and comedic mind hiding just beneath that character.”

U.S. women’s gymnastics team flips over ‘Hamilton’

AP file photo

David Lynch speaks at the David Lynch Foundation Music Celebration on April 1, 2015, at the Theatre at Ace Hotel in Los Angeles. Lynch’s “Mulholland Drive” is listed by the BBC as one of the top 100 films of the 21st Century.

BBC lists Top 100 films of 21st century; David Lynch tops it There still may be 84 years to go, but a new list ranks David Lynch’s “Mulholland Drive,” Wong Kar-wai’s “In the Mood for Love” and Paul Thomas Anderson’s “There Will Be Blood” as the top films of the 21st century – so far.

The BBC created the Top 100 list by surveying 177 film critics – from every continent except Antarctica – and included films from 2000, though not technically the start of the century.

Among the notable entries were Todd Haynes’ “Carol” at No. 69, Kathryn Bigelow’s “The Hurt Locker” at No. 67 and “Her” by Spike Jonze landing at No. 84.

No films directed by Woody Allen, nor any by Alejandro G. Inarritu, who won back-to-back directing Oscars for “Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)” and “The Revenant,” made the list.

The list does include Richard Linklater’s “Boyhood” at No. 5, George Miller’s “Mad Max: Fury Road” at No. 19 and Steve McQueen’s “12 Years a Slave” at No. 44. The highest ranked film directed by a woman was Sofia Coppola’s “Lost in Translation” at No. 22. Spike Lee’s “25th Hour” is the only movie by a black person to make the list.

Two Ang Lee films – “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” and “Brokeback Mountain” – made the list, as did three by Christopher Nolan – “The Dark Knight,” “Memento” and “Inception.” There also were three films by Joel and Ethan Coen – “A Serious Man,” “Inside Llewyn Davis” and “No Country for Old Men” – and three by Wes Anderson: “The Royal Tenenbaums,” “The Grand Budapest Hotel” and “Moonrise Kingdom.”

NEW YORK – How do you follow winning Olympic gold at the Rio Olympics? How about a chance to see “Hamilton” on Broadway?

The Tony Award-winning smash musical on Tuesday night welcomed the U.S. women’s gymnastics team – Simone Biles, Aly Raisman, Gabby Douglas, Madison Kocian and Laurie Hernandez – who gave the show a standing ovation and greeted the cast onstage afterward at the Richard Rodgers Theatre.

The gymnasts, dressed in slacks and button-downs or rompers, sat together in Row G to take in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s hip-hop-flavored biography about the first U.S. treasury secretary, a night that had athletic gold meeting theatrical gold.

“I thought you were amazing,” Raisman told Tony Award-nominee Brandon Victor Dixon, who just happened to be making his debut appearance replacing Tony Award-winner Leslie Odom Jr. as Aaron Burr.

Pandora to release weekly show with Roots’ Questlove OAKLAND, Calif. – Roots drummer Questlove is starting a new three-hour weekly show on the streaming music service Pandora that will feature music, interviews and conversations from the Grammy-winning musician.

Pandora announced the partnership on

Wednesday and said “Questlove Supreme” will debut Sept. 7 on his new Pandora station. Guests include comedian Maya Rudolph, producer and engineer Bob Power, and musician Kimbra.

Questlove, who is the musical director of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” also will serve as a strategic adviser and the first artist ambassador for Pandora.

Leslie Jones’ personal site offline after hacking

LOS ANGELES – Leslie Jones’ personal website has been taken offline after it appeared hackers posted her driver’s license and passport and explicit photos of the actress-comedienne.

A spokesman for the “Saturday Night Live” and “Ghostbusters” co-star didn’t immediately respond to messages Wednesday seeking comment.

The hackers also appeared to have inserted images on the black actress’ site of the deceased gorilla Harambe and Jones posing with such stars as Rihanna, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian West.

“Ghostbusters” filmmaker Paul Feig called it an “absolute outrage” on Twitter on Wednesday.

Jones quit Twitter last month then later rejoined after facing racial slurs, obscene photos and comments about her appearance. She called on the social networking service to do more to curb harassment on the platform.

30 Fit young people have reduced diabetes risk Dear Dr. K: My teenage son doesn’t like sports or exercise. Diabetes runs in our family. You say exercise protects against diabetes and is valuable even in young adults. Can you give me some ammunition to convince my teenager to exercise?

Dear Reader: Perfect timing: A new study has been published that provides an answer. Most studies of exercise have been in adults, often older adults. Until this recent study, there wasn’t a lot of information about teenagers.

The new study looked at 1.5 million teenage men enlisted in the military in Sweden between the years 1969 and 1997. None had diabetes at the time they entered the military. Because military service is required in Sweden, these young men included more than 97 percent of all Swedish men aged 18.

Health records were available for all the men, for up to the next 40 years.

At the time they entered military service, their aerobic capacity, a reflection of the amount of aerobic exercise, was measured. So was their muscle strength, a reflection of the amount of strength or resistance training. Medical records over the next several decades also identified which of the young men developed diabetes (the common type, called Type 2 or “adult-onset” diabetes).

The research team then could compare the young men who were the least fit to those who were the most fit, with regard to the rate with which they developed Type 2 diabetes many decades later. Those who were the least fit (both in terms of aerobic capacity and muscle strength) were more than three times more likely later to develop diabetes.

This connection between fitness and reduced risk of diabetes was true regardless of how much the teens weighed when they

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff began military service. That’s important because exercise helps to reduce weight, and lower weight helps to protect against diabetes. This study shows exercise in teenagers – both aerobic exercise and strength training – reduces the risk of diabetes in later life, even if the exercise hasn’t led them to achieve a healthy weight.

Aerobic exercise and strength training cause several different chemical changes in muscle. These changes cause muscle to extract sugar from the blood more efficiently. That, in turn, lowers blood sugar levels. Regular exercise also decreases the size and number of fat cells. This leads to hormonal changes that reduce the risk of developing diabetes.

A weakness of this study is it did not measure again, later in life, the aerobic capacity and muscle strength of these young men. It theoretically is possible the ones who exercised the most as teens continued to exercise the most as older adults.

In other words, maybe the exercise when they were teens didn’t protect them, only the exercise later in life. That’s possible, but I think it’s more likely regular exercise in teenage and young adult years protects against diabetes many years later.

I hope that’s the ammunition you need.

It should be – if your son is a rational teenager. But I know rational teens sometimes can be hard to find.

dad was married to a woman named “Cynthia” for 16 years until they divorced.

He met and married my mother the next year.

My parents were married for 40 years, until Mom died of cancer a year ago. Since her death, I have gone with my dad to a few holiday events hosted at his other daughters’ houses, where we saw them and Cynthia. Everyone was cordial and welcoming.

A few days ago, Dad told me he and Cynthia are dating, and he asked me to wish them luck.

My immediate reaction was “Why?” I left immediately, and have ignored his phone calls ever since. I cannot express how upset this made me.

I realize he’s a lonely old man who would like to maybe start dating again, but his ex-wife? It feels like a total betrayal of my mother and me, as if we were only some sort of intermission from his first family.

There are so many reasons why this feels like a sad and terrible idea, up to and including the havoc it will wreak on all of his daughters if something goes wrong again. I feel like he hasn’t taken into account anyone’s feelings but his own.

Am I selfish to feel this way? I don’t want to be the bad guy, but I will never be OK with this.

– “Intermission” Daughter Dear Daughter: If you are never OK with this, you will punish only yourself. Your father’s divorce from Cynthia appears to have been amicable. His attraction to her might have more to do with the fact he is drawn to someone familiar than any lack of feeling for you and your mother.

Instead of punishing him by ignoring his calls, I urge you to talk to him. What he’s doing isn’t disrespectful. He has mourned your mother’s death for a year. Let him find happiness if he can, because if you do, I predict it will spill over into your own life.

Dear Abby: “Hiding My Smile in New Jersey” (Feb. 28) was embarrassed by the condition of her teeth, which she had neglected for years.

Your advice to her was excellent, but I’d like to add one more suggestion: Schools of dentistry often have programs in which care is offered to lower-income patients under a reduced-fee structure, based on the client’s income. Care is provided by dental students under close supervision by their board-certified dental professors. Students participate as assistants in procedures before being allowed to perform these procedures. – Patricia

Ruffner’s second and third goals came when Huntley (1-1) applied pressure and took advantage of sloppy passing between the Hurricanes’ defense and goalkeeper.

McHenry County Meet set for Saturday at Emricson Park

The area cross country season starts Saturday with the McHenry County Meet at Woodstock’s Emricson Park.

The girls varsity race is set for 9:30 a.m., with the boys race at 10.

2015 Northwest Herald Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year Caitlin Bruzzini of Crystal Lake South will be favored in the girls race. She won the Fox Valley Conference title and finished 41st in the Class 3A state meet last year.

Many of the area’s top girls runners return this season, including all the runners on Crystal Lake Central’s Class 2A state-qualifying girls team. Janine Orvis, last year’s FVC runner-up, leads the Tigers. Seventeen of the 20 girls on the Northwest Herald All-Area teams last year were underclassmen.

2015 Northwest Herald Boys Cross Country Runner of the Year Filip Pajak of Prairie Ridge will be the favorite in that race.

Crystal Lake Central’s Cole Barkocy and South’s Jack Becker and Jon Prus are some of the other top boys runners.

No team scores are kept at the county meet. The Northwest Herald cross country previews will appear in the Monday and Tuesday editions next week.

“It certainly makes it hard, to give up an early (goal), and a bit of our own mistake doing that, but we had chances, we definitely had chances,” Marian Central coach Jim Colvin said. “We had chances to get right back in the game, and we just couldn’t put it in the back of the net.”

After some chippy physical exchanges late in the first half and into the second, Huntley made it 4-0 late in the second half. With 2:15 left to play, Zack Whitaker finished off a chipped pass from Brandon Ruffner.

Marian Central (0-1-1) got its lone goal with 1:01 left to play, when Sam Guilbeault sent a long free kick from the right side sailing into the far top corner.

“I’m just trying to get my team to play as a team at this point,” Colvin said. “We lost quite a few guys last year. We’re without a real goalkeeper at this point, so Drew Simmons stepped up tonight great. He was awesome in the second half. I just want the team to really start to form as a team – a little too much selfishness at this point in the seaso – and start to really work as a team. I’m encouraging the guys to have fun.

Harvard athletic director Matt Rife exhausted all options in the search to find an opponent for the Hornets football team this week. Four days was just not enough time to schedule a varsity football game.

The IHSA contacted Rife on Monday to inform him that Harvard’s scheduled Week 1 opponent, Chicago Kelvyn Park, had forfeited Friday’s season opener.

Harvard will accept the forfeit and play a junior-varsity game against Belvidere North at 2 p.m. Saturday at Harvard.

Belvidere North’s varsity squad plays Rockford Jefferson on Friday.

Harvard coach Sean Saylor said the Hornets will treat Saturday’s game as a JV game, but some of the varsity starters could see some playing time.

“We want a competitive situation for kids to develop and get better,” Say-

officials told him the team still was coming. That changed this week, and Harvard was left searching for an opponent.

“It’s unfortunate for our kids because, to some degree, we’re being penalized for things beyond our control,” Rife said. “It wasn’t as if we didn’t follow up and confirm. As of [Aug. 18], there were three representatives from the school saying they were going to be here.”

In addition to schools in Illinois, Rife reached out to schools in Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana and Michigan. Rife searched for other schools whose game this week was forfeited or schools whose scheduled opponent is on a teacher’s strike, leaving an opening in the schedule.

Losing Friday’s varsity game means Harvard will lose one of only four home games on its schedule. The Hornets will open the varsity season Sept. 2 at Plano and will play their first home game Sept. 23 against Marengo.

“When there’s a build up to the season and you have the countdown clock going, the kids have it in their heads they’re going to play this team under Friday night lights,” Saylor said. “But it’s an opportunity to learn about minor adversity, and you’ve got to go with the punches that are thrown at you and adjust.”

6 CHICAGO BASEBALL ROUNDUP

Major league ERA leader pitches Cubs past Padres The ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN DIEGO – Kyle Hendricks has another weapon, but it’s not a pitch.

It was on display when the Cubs beat the San Diego Padres, 6-3, to complete a three-game sweep Wednesday.

“It’s confidence,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. “The biggest thing from last year to this year is the confidence thing. I think he believes he is one of the best right now.”

Hendricks, the major league ERA leader, Kyle Hendricks pitched six effective innings to pace the Cubs.

“Maybe he wasn’t as sharp as usual, but he was really good,” Maddon said.

Hendricks (12-7) gave up two runs and four hits, striking out eight and leaving with a 2.19 ERA. He has allowed no more than three earned runs in 17 straight starts.

In that span, Hendricks has pitched to a 1.70 ERA. “Today, I had some bad at the beginning and some good at the end,” he said.

“I had both ends of the spectrum there.

“At the beginning, my command was a little off. I finally started getting the ball down and found the movement on my two-seamer and started spotting that better. I was on a roll from there.”

Three Cubs relievers took over for the NL Central leaders, with Aroldis Chapman pitching the ninth for his 29th save in 32 chances.

“I knew [Hendricks] was going to be really good this year, but he has taken it to another level,” Maddon said.

Willson Contreras homered and Ben Zobrist drove in two runs as the Cubs won for the 22nd time in 27 games. At 81-45, they are 36 games over .500 for the first time since ending the 1945 season at 98-56.

“That was really loud,” Maddon said of Contreras’ blast. “You knew that was a home run when he hit it.”

The Padres have dropped nine of their past 12. Paul Clemens (2-3) took the loss.

Jorge Soler and Addison Russell also drove in runs for the Cubs as they scored at least three runs for the 23rd consecutive game, second this season only to the Baltimore Orioles (28).

Ryan Schimpf tripled and doubled for the Padres.

The Cubs started fast when Dexter Fowler led off the game with a double and Kris Bryant nearly launched his third homer of the series. Instead, his drive hit the top of the wall and ended up being a long single.

“Kris Bryant is a tough hitter,” Padres manager Andy Green said. “Some guys have lanes you can pitch through, some hitters have small little holes.

Kris Bryant has small holes.”

Ballpark name change: At Chicago, maybe the White Sox will change their luck by changing the name of their stadium.

No guarantees, though.

The ballpark called U.S. Cellular Field will become known as Guaranteed Rate Field starting in November.

The team and the mortgage company announced a 13-year naming rights deal Wednesday.

“We view this partnership as an opportunity to connect a successful Chicago business with a historic baseball franchise, and we look forward to growing this important relationship over the coming years as millions of fans enjoy White Sox baseball at Guaranteed Rate Field,” Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf said.

The Sox are below .500 and are on the verge of missing the playoffs for the 10th time in 11 seasons since the 2005 team won the World Series.

“This is a very solid partner that is interested in helping us drive people to the ballpark and giving us the best opportunity to put the best possible product out on the field,” Sox senior vice president of sales and marketing Brooks Boyer said. “The revenue generated for our club ... goes back out into the field. This is a nice step today toward continuing to fulfill the vision of putting the best possible club out on the field that can be out there for our fans.”

The agreement was approved by the Illinois Sports Facilities Authority, which owns the ballpark. The Sox hold a one-year option that could extend the deal through 2030.

Phillies 5, White Sox 3: At Chicago, Sox starter James Shields gave up two more home runs, and the Sox lost to Philadelphia Tommy Joseph and Cesar Hernandez homered to back Jerad Eickhoff, Philadelphia showed some spark at the plate and on the mound – a big change for a team that got outscored a combined 18-1 over the previous two games against St. Louis and the Sox. The Phillies came away with the win after dropping five of seven and salvaged a two-game split in their first trip to the South Side since 2004.

Shields set a career high with his 16th loss.

The veteran right-hander gave up four runs and seven hits in six innings.

He struck out six and walked none.

Dave’s Bait, Tackle and Taxidermy in Crystal Lake reports: “As the days grow shorter and it begins to feel more like fall at times, the fishing sometimes get better as we head into the next season of weather. The dams at McHenry, Algonquin and Carpentersville all can be great late-summer and early fall fishing spots. Walleye, white bass and smallmouth bass all put on the feed bag as we head into fall. My favorite bait is a small or medium sucker about 2 feet under a slip float.

I like to throw the sucker into current edges and let them drift by ambush points such as rocks and wood.

“The McHenry County Conservation District site, The Hollows, contains Lake Atwood and is a great place to take kids. Large-mouth bass, catfish and panfish all are there to be caught. No minnows are allowed there and they also require you to practice catch-and-release.

“Vulcan Lakes at the Three Oaks

Recreation Area in Crystal Lake has a wonderful 300-plus acre lake where you can rent fishing boats with trolling motors. Fishing can be good in this clear gravel pit lake for pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass. It also has some big catfish and nicesized panfish. This is a catch-and-release-only lake and live minnows also are not allowed.

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

Chris Taurisano of T-Bone Guide Service (www.tboneguideservice.com – 630-330-0090) sends word, “It looks like we may be able to get back after the nice population of muskies on the Fox Chain soon as the water begins to cool. Walleye action has been good on leeches and minnows. Try the bridges. If the side facing the wind doesn’t produce, then give the more sheltered side a go. Sand bars and wind-blown gravelly shorelines also are productive areas. Bass seem to be taking dark-colored plastics fished on drop shot rigs on the deeper edges of defined weed lines. Crappies and bluegills are hanging near brush close to the mouths of channels.”

The veterinarian responded, “I can’t tell you what to do with your dog. That is a personal decision you’re going to have to make.”

“OK,” I replied. “What if this was your dog? In that case, what would you do with him?”

He solemnly answered, “Sir, it’s not my dog. It’s yours. I can’t make a decision for you. The dog belongs to you and you are going to have to make that very personal decision, not me. It’s not fair for a person to have to make a decision as to whether another man’s dog lives or dies.”

I leaned down and hugged and kissed my best friend goodbye.

That is a principle on which I base a lot of decisions about moral dilemmas. If it doesn’t directly affect me or my family, I try to keep my opinion to myself.

That said, I do use the law to influence my opinion on the matter. If something is legal, that takes precedence in my mind.

In the case of the crying boy and the musky, I truly did not want any part of getting involved in an argument with the kid’s old man about whether to release the fish or not. I figured it was their dilemma to work out.

I did feel that the father was doing more damage to the boy’s psyche and their interpersonal relationship by keeping the fish, but it’s none of my business.

I did, however, decide to confront the dad and put in my two cents. I made that decision because of the legality of the dilemma and not the morality.

I asked the man how big the fish was. He proudly beamed and answered, “Thirty-nine inches! My boy’s first musky!”

I asked him if he knew the legal size limit for keeping a musky. He said it was 38 inches. I told him that, at that time, many Wisconsin Lakes had a 38inch limit, but this particular Flowage might have a 40-inch limit. I wasn’t sure and neither was he.

I told him the penalty for possessing an undersized fish was high and that a department of natural resources ranger probably would impound his boat and tackle if he were caught with a short fish.

I was proud of myself for being quick-witted. I felt I was able to influence the man’s decision by using the legal angle without inflicting my personal feelings into the dilemma he and his son were facing.

Did it work? To be honest, no, it did not. The guy wouldn’t listen to reason. He was, and always had been a total jerk, anyway. What kind of man traumatizes his own son and makes

Moral dilemmas often hard to resolve I don’t like to be confronted with moral dilemmas. I write about hunting and fishing, for the most part.

These sports are pure and simple.

Everyone can participate without much hassle. You go out and buy your permits or licenses and then follow the rules and regulations and you are good to go. Not a big deal at all, is it?

Once in a while, however, a situation arises that makes it necessary for me to have to think about the issue and decide which side of the proverbial fence I find myself.

I remember being on a camping trip with my sons when they were young.

I used to take them on a venture to the Flambeau Flowage in Wisconsin as part of a group of five dads and 13 kids.

One of the other boys caught a musky.

The 13-year-old boy and his dad came back to camp and the boy was crying.

I didn’t want to intrude, but the boy approached me and said he was upset because his father was forcing him to keep the musky and have it mounted. The father said it was his first musky and insisted it hang on the family’s wall. The boy wanted the

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley creature released so it could be caught again another day. The father insisted that the boy’s fish needed to die. The boy asked me for help in reasoning with his father.

There is one of those moral dilemmas I was talking about. Personally, if it were one of my boys, the fish would have been released. If they had wanted a mount, I would have tried to explain to them that a graphite representation would do the trick and they still could let the fish go.

The problem here is that the fish was not ours. At times like this, I always think back to a time when my old German Shepherd, Shadow, was in the emergency room suffering from some kind of internal trauma. I asked the doctor if I should have him put to sleep.

WOODSTOCK JAZZ FESTIVAL

From intimate to Las Vegas-style, jazz takes over Woodstock Square

MORE SOUNDS NEWS & REVIEWS NWHerald.com

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

The Woodstock Square is an ideal place for scatting, say those involved with the Woodstock Jazz Festival.

In its ninth year, the two-day festival returns Aug. 26-27 with performances both on the Square and at Stage Left Café, 125 W. Van Buren St., as well as a concert presented in conjunction with the Woodstock Opera House.

“I think every town needs a jazz festival,” said Bryan Kyrouac, organizer of the volunteer-run event, which is hosted by the nonprofit Jazz on the Square. Most of the money raised from the festival will go toward jazz programs and scholarships, while the rest helps pays for the event itself.

“It’s America’s music,” Kyrouac said.

“It kind of speaks in a way that I think is very similar to the way poetry is to English. There’s an artistry there that can kind of convey the human experience. It’s spontaneous music. It’s never the same, just like life in general.”

Among the performers this year, Typhanie Monique has performed throughout the world, including one of her favorite projects – the Chicago-based Booty Movement Coalition, a freestyle funk/hop group.

Musicians come together and improvise entire concerts.

“It’s just a collective formation of spontaneous performances,” she said. “Just having that experience and freedom to express is a lifeline for me.”

Monique recently raised $38,000

For a complete Woodstock Jazz Festival schedule, see page 5. through a Kickstarter campaign and has created her latest album, “Call it Magic,” which she expects to release soon. She describes it as a jazz album with some pop elements.

Kicking off the festival at 8 p.m.

Aug. 26 at Stage Left Café, Monique will perform along with Ben Lewis on piano, Greg Artry on drums and Dennis Carroll on bass.

“I think it’s fabulous,” she said of the festival. “Woodstock is a very quaint town with a strong arts community, and knowing Jazz on the Square, they certainly do a great job of promoting the genre.”

Other acts include free performances the morning of Aug. 27 on the Woodstock Square by returning favorites Potts & Pans Steel Band, the Outcast Jazz Band and a newly created The Jazz on the Square Student Allstars.

The group is made up of high school students who regularly attend Jazz on the Square’s jam sessions.

“It’s been very fun to watch them grow over the years, and now they’re doing their own thing,” Kyrouac said.

At 7 p.m. Aug. 27 at Stage Left Café, Petra & Andy will take the stage with a performance Kyrouac describes as “intimate and warm that works out perfectly for Stage

And later at 9:30 p.m. Aug. 27 at Stage Left Café, favorites Patty Greer and Fred Wackenhut will perform.

“She’s a powerful kind of Las Vegasstyle singer and entertainer that is something unlike we see around our parts very often,” Kyrouac said of Greer.

MADELINE 1 YEAR OLD FEMALE ORANGE TABBY DSH She was found as a stray little kitten all alone and taken to animal control. She was so tiny and young they asked us if we could take her. After being examined by a vet it was found that she had a very rare condition for cats. She had a cleft soft palate but nothing could be done because she was too young. She needed more attention so she went into a foster home. She grew and thrived with all the TLC she was given. When she was old enough she went to a specialist and it was determined she had adjusted to the palate. Multiple surgeries would not be done. She is very small for her age. She has very big eyes, an impish face and a cute personality. Only 20% of all orange cats are female so that makes her a little special too.

She is very playful with interactive toys or on her own. She gets along with the other cats unless they play too rough. She enjoys getting petted but does not like getting picked up until she knows you really well. If you always wanted a cat that looked like a kitten for life----then Madeline is the one for you. Come play with her at Helping Paws located at 2500 Harding Lane, Woodstock, Illinois.

By JAKE COYLE

The Associated Press

Writer-director Richard Tanne’s feature film debut “Southside With You” views history through an unlikely, heart-shaped prism: the first date between Barack Obama and Michelle Robinson. Contemplating further such forays into presidential romance is indeed frightful. Are we itching closer to a rom-com about the courtship between Gerald and Betty? Or, heaven help us, “Pizza Night With Bill and Hillary”?

And yet Tanne’s film is no mere first couple valentine. Nuanced and charming, “Southside With You” is a sunny, strolling odyssey through AfricanAmerican life in 1989, filtered through two future icons as they navigate the world around them and their place in it.

Tanne and his excellent actors (Parker Sawyers as Barack, Tika Sumpter as Michelle) compress into a single day something broader and more meaningful than White House trivia.

Though the movie settles into a Richard Linklater-like series of conversations and encounters, it begins with the blare of Janet Jackson’s “Miss You Much” on the car radio and the unmistakable feel of an ’80s movie. “Southside With You” is, in a way, a portrait of a president-to-be as a young John Cusack.

Riding in a beat-up yellow Datsun and flicking his cigarette ash out the window, 28-year-old Barack is on his

“SOUTHSIDE WITH YOU” STARRING: Tika Sumpter, Parker Sawyers, Vanessa Bell Calloway PLOT: Chronicles the summer 1989 afternoon when the future president of the United States of America, Barack Obama, wooed his future first lady on an epic first date across Chicago’s South Side.

RATED: PG-13 for brief strong language, smoking, a violent image and a drug reference RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 24 minutes way to pick up Michelle, a 26-year-old colleague from their law firm who persistently insists they are emphatically not on a date.

“Just another smooth-talking brother,” is Michelle’s judgment, as recited here by her mother.

The Obamas’ first encounters were, to an extent, sweetly old-fashioned. He took her to a movie. They kissed over ice cream at Baskin Robbins.

But the film was no mere date movie; it was Spike Lee’s “Do the Right Thing.” And their stops include an African American art exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago and a community meeting in a church (something incorporated here from a later date) where “Brother Barack” flashes his speechmaking skills.

They drive a little and walk a little through Chicago’s Southside, but

they’re also passing through a larger cultural atmosphere. Barack is reading Toni Morrison’s “Song of Solomon” before he leaves to pick up Michelle.

Names of people killed on the streets of Chicago adorn a wall they stride past.

Debate over the divisive ending of “Do the Right Thing” (when Mookie throws a trash can through Sal’s pizzeria) engulfs them outside the theater.

Sumpter and Sawyers both, against the odds, evade the trappings of impression and give natural, intimate performances about two outsiders on their way to becoming Beltway insiders. “I’m tired of being two different people,” Michelle says of being a black woman in a white world. They are both in the process of forming themselves, measuring their own ambitions. The undertow of history is all around: “Something else is pulling me,” Obama says.

Inevitably, approximately half of the moviegoing electorate will have little interest in “Southside With You.” But the film essentially is devoid of politics.

Its tenderness, warmth and modesty (it’s a mere 84 minutes long) is an all the more welcome change of pace in this election year.

Even most of the winks you’d expect in an origin story like this aren’t heavyhanded. Some actually are quite good.

As Michelle gets ready for her date, her father hollers, ominously, “So what’s this boy’s name?”

OPENING FRIDAY

This image released by The Weinstein Company shows Robert De Niro (left) and Edgar Ramirez in a scene from “Hands of Stone.”

De Niro, Ramirez enter the ring in ‘Hands of Stone’

By LINDSEY BAHR The Associated Press

“Hands of Stone” is a sprawling yet fairly conventional biopic about the Panamanian boxing champion Roberto Duran – a man The Associated Press once declared the seventh greatest fighter and No. 1 lightweight of the 20th century.

For the uninitiated, the title refers to Duran’s nickname. He was known for packing a mighty hit and (usually) winning.

When he faced Sugar Ray Leonard for the Welterweight title in 1980, he was 71-1. He won that match too, only to forfeit it six months later in a bizarre re-match that’s become known as the “No Mas Fight.”

Popular myth would have us all believe Duran said “No Mas” to end the match partway through. He’d fallen out of shape in the months between the two fights.

That event is dramatized in writer-director Jonathan Jakubowicz’s film, with Edgar Ramirez as Duran and the singer Usher Raymond as Leonard. But while it might be the

“HANDS OF STONE” STARRING: Edgar Ramírez, Usher Raymond, Robert De Niro

PLOT: The legendary Roberto Duran and

his equally legendary trainer Ray Arcel change each other’s lives.

RATED: R for language throughout and some sexuality/nudity TIME: 1 hour, 45 minutes

showdown that has cemented Duran’s unique place in history (even if he probably didn’t utter those words), it’s hardly the main event of “Hands of Stone,” which strives to give context to Duran’s life – complications and all.

Our entry to the story is oddly through the famed coach Ray Arcel (Robert De Niro), who comes to observe Duran in action before agreeing to train him. He’s already great at this point, but Arcel is there to take him to the next level – namely the United States. Duran isn’t interested at first – he hates the U.S. for what they’ve done to

his country. The framework allows “Hands of Stone” to jump back in time to a glossy reenactment of the 1964 riots over sovereignty of the Panama Canal.

Duran, born in 1951, grew up in this heightened time, which would color his political views into adulthood. An impoverished kid, he started brawling in the streets when he was just 8 and fighting professionally by the age of 16.

The film follows the standard biopic beats in recounting his scrappy origins and his aggressive pursuit of Felicidad Iglesias (portrayed by the Cuban actress Ana de Armas, who also plays the significant other role in “War Dogs”) and the quick, and humorous, expansion of their family.

He eventually gives himself over to Arcel’s counsel, and they start down the path of making him a superstar, which of course leads to money, drugs and a hedonistic abandon we’ve seen in films like this so, so many times.

With this entire story to work with, it is a little confusing as to

why Jakubowicz packs in so much about Arcel as well – from his weird beef with the mob to his relationship with his wife (Ellen Barkin) and the secret daughter he’s hidden from her. Certainly an interesting man, worthy probably of his own biopic, but his arc here has the feel of an unnecessary side show. But it’s De Niro in a boxing movie, so co-lead it is.

Distractions aside, Ramirez and De Niro prove to be a good pairing.

De Niro takes on the air of a kindly father figure – one who doesn’t yell and berate from the corner of the ring, but instead gently combs Duran’s dripping wet hair back in between rounds. The idea is he’ll psychologically disarm opponents by looking improbably fresh, showered and groomed in the middle of a fight. Ramirez is solidly compelling as Duran, the complicated pit bull that he is, but the audience is kept at a distance and isn’t given an opportunity to truly empathize.

“Hands of Stone” is a solid film, but you just can’t help shake the feeling we’ve seen it all before.

jkunzer@shawmedia.com Richardson Adventure Farm has boldly gone where no man has gone before.

The Spring Grove attraction, which boasts “the world’s largest, most intricately designed corn maze” – a status well-researched by its creators – has created a tribute to the 50th anniversary of the “Star Trek” television series.

It’s a tribute William Shatner himself had to approve.

“It sort of hinged on us being able to use the actual logos and images from ‘Star Trek,’ ” Co-owner George Richardson said of the 28 acres of cornfield sculpted into 11 miles of trails at the farm. The maze, along with the farm’s numerous other attractions, opens Sept. 3.

It took a couple year’s worth of negotiations with studio executives to get permission from those who own the rights to “Star Trek” to create the tribute, which contains portraits of Capt.

Kirk, played by Shatner, and Spock, played by the late Leonard Nimoy.

“Out in New York City, they don’t have any idea what that [corn maze] is,” Richardson said. “After several emails and sending pictures of past mazes, they sort of got the idea of what we were trying to do.”

The Capt. Kirk image in the design eventually was sent to Shatner.

“They said his original face looked too stern,” Richardson said. “We said, ‘OK, we can lighten the eyebrows and upturn the corners of his mouth a little bit.’ Then William Shatner approved his image. It was a fun process to walk through.”

Fun was the goal from the beginning with the farm’s 16th maze.

Along with Kirk and Spock, the maze – the size of 21 football fields arranged in one big rectangle – depicts a “Star Trek 50” logo, the Starship Enterprise and an array of planets, asteroids, comets and stars.

The theme might make its way throughout the farm with perhaps,

“Capt. Kirk racing Mr. Spock in the pig races, maybe a Klingon, I don’t know,” said Richardson, who wouldn’t describe himself as a huge Trekkie, but enjoyed the early television series and some of the movies, including the most recent “Star Trek Beyond” released in July.

Richardson would love to see some true Trekkies visit the farm in costume.

No Klingons – or anyone else for that matter – can get lost in the maze, he stressed.

“The corn maze, although huge, is designed with no dead ends,” he said.

“You solve it be finding the checkpoints out in the maze. You can see our 50-foot tall observation tower. Just head toward that and you’ll get out.”

The multiple entrances and exits actually prevent the maze from ever making it into the Guinness Book of World Records for world’s largest maze because the technical definition of a maze is one way in and one way out, Richardson said.

RICHARDSON ADVENTURE FARM WHEN: Sept. 3-Oct. 30 WHERE: 909 English Prairie Road, Spring Grove COST & INFO: Featuring the corn maze, along with more than 30 activities, including pedal carts, jumping pillows, train rides, pony rides, a carousel, a 50-foot slide, Bunnyville, wagon rides, barrel swings, zip lines, a Kiddie Play Area, community campfires, pig races, a pumpkin patch, ORBiting, corn cannons and more.

Activity costs vary. Admission is $16 for those ages 13 and older; $13 for those ages 4 to 12 and free for those ages 3 and younger. Information: www.richardsonadventurefarm.com.

So that would make the Richardson maze more of a labyrinth in a corn maze. There is a larger corn maze in the San Francisco area, but it’s not as intricately designed and has acres of bare cornfield in between squiggles, Richarson said.

Along with the maze, Richardson Adventure Farm features more than 30 activities.

With about 16 acres of pumpkins this year, the farm yielded its biggest crop yet resulting in pumpkins of all colors and sizes, from 2 to 150 pounds, Richardson said. And along with the usuual favorites, such as fudge and doughnuts, soft serve ice cream and a popcorn shop have been added.

12 TV series to watch this fall, some far afield of mainstream

By FRAZIER MOORE The Associated Press

The fall television season has been an annual rite since viewers were splitting their time between the trio of networks on their black-and-white TVs. Nowadays, watching TV isn’t even limited to TV screens, while dozens of channels are spewing out new series for the modern pampered audience.

Although the major broadcast networks still make the most noise

when it comes to promoting their new wares, savvy viewers may find the best new shows often blossom far afield of mainstream outlets, as cable channels and streaming services prove more and more conclusively they’re where the action is.

For instance, Amazon Prime will host a six-part series starring, as well as directed and written by, Woody Allen beginning Sept. 30.

Although “Crisis in Six Scenes” isn’t yet available for preview, one Great People, Great Food!

“The Good Place”

“Atlanta” FX; Sept. 6

Starring and created by Donald Glover, who’s also one of its writers, this remarkably gritty yet heartwarming comedy focuses on two cousins as they try to break into the Atlanta rap scene with many a stumble in both their professional and personal lives. Everything about this show rings true, sometimes painfully so: “I just keep losing. I mean, some people just supposed to lose ... just to make it easier for the winners?” Good question. But hope springs eternal, along with well-earned laughs, on this winning new series.

“Westworld”

“Queen Sugar”

“Westworld”

OWN; Sept. 6

If it were only a robust melodrama, that would be enough. Its African-American ensemble and perspective make this family saga instantly appealing. But along with an intoxicating tale of the at-odds Bordelon clan and their at-risk cane farm in the Deep South, “Queen Sugar” does something any series should be proud to accomplish: It puts forth a varied group of individuals ranging from rich to poor and from reckless to righteous, minus the stereotyping. This series is executive-produced by Oprah Winfrey and Ava DuVernay, director of the Oscar-nominated “Selma.” A breath of fresh air, it’s a series that could bring viewers to OWN who have never come before.

“Fleabag”

Amazon; Sept. 16

Fleabag (this gal’s nickname) is a klutz, a kook and a self-perpetuating outcast. On the loose in London, she’s a cringingly hilarious mess you can relate to, even while seized by an urge to look away. Not that she isn’t pretty and, one supposes, bright. And yet: “I have a horrible feeling that I am a greedy, perverted, selfish, apathetic, cynical, depraved, morally bankrupt woman who can’t even call herself a feminist,” she blurts out to her arm’s-length dad, to which he replies, “You get all that from your mother.” In the tradition of “Bridget Jones’s Diary,” ‘’Girls” and even TV-Larry-David’s trouble-seeking compulsions, it’s a virtuoso performance by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who not only stars but also created the series, which premiered on BBC Three in July.

HBO; Oct. 2

“The Good Place” NBC; Sept. 19

Clerical errors can happen anywhere, even in the Hereafter. On this comedy, a paperwork glitch leads to a not-so-good young woman being mistakenly dispatched to the exclusive Good Place, where only the most virtuous are meant to gain entry. Kristen Bell plays the misappointed Eleanor, who, through wiles if not through personal improvement, means to hang onto her Good Place posting – and to keep the mistake hidden from her Good Place overseer (Ted Danson). It’s a refreshingly loopy, ultimately goodhearted romp, occasionally punctuated with surreal flights of fancy (Eleanor’s invasive presence in the Good Place has wildly disruptive effects).

It’s a good place to settle for half-hours of fun.

“The Exorcist” Fox; Sept. 23

To judge from the pilot, at least, this is no pro-forma remake. No, it appears to truly be its own thing while recapturing the (evil) spirit of the chilling 1973 film. The less said beyond that, the better, other than to note the impressive cast includes Ben Daniels and Geena Davis – and to promise a twist that, all by itself, will make the pilot episode worth checking out. Here’s hoping the same creative spirit haunts this show in episodes to come.

This two-pronged odyssey simultaneously is set in a sci-fi future and the reimagined Old West past in the form of an epic theme park where lifelike robots indulge every appetite of its paying guests. What measure of depravity does this unleash in the humans who visit? And what measure of upheaval will be triggered when the robots go haywire? A huge ensemble includes Anthony Hopkins, Ed Harris, Evan Rachel Wood, Thandie Newton and Jeffrey Wright. The series’ visuals – both its western splendor and its futuristic labs – is spellbinding. In short, this is a candidate to be HBO’s next “Game of Thrones.”

“Divorce” HBO; Oct. 9

Sarah Jessica Parker has passed beyond “Sex and the City” to a next-stage comedy that takes her out of New York City and up to the ’burbs for a role that could prove as totemic as single-girl Carrie. This time, she plays a mother and a wife (to co-star Thomas Haden Church) who’s having an affair and wants out of her marriage, explaining, “I want to save my life while I still care about it.” But there’s no simple escape for her or anyone else among the series’ crumbling collection of marrieds, and this show is a shrewd reminder why. Funny and wellobserved, “Divorce” is a comedy that could have viewers saying “I do.”

“Insecure” HBO; Oct. 9

What’s it like to be a modern young black woman who can function in a mostly white world (and the totally white workplace of a social-service agency) but savors sisterhood with her favorite gal pal? This charming comedy was created by and stars Issa Rae (creator of the YouTube web series “Awkward Black Girl”) as an insecure L.A. girl on the make and Yvonne Orji as her seemingly has-it-all-together chum.

“Falling Water”

“Fleabag”

USA; Oct. 13 This dreamy drama tells of three people who realize their dreams each compose part of a universal dream, with a powerful cumulative story to tell. Tess is a professional trend spotter who knows, without quite knowing how, what the next thing will be that catches on.

Taka is an NYPD detective whose job is finding clues to solve human puzzles. Burton is the fixer at an investment banking firm who’s tasked with halting sinister human impulses. What does this add up to? A mesmerizing wakeup call.

“Goliath”

Amazon; Oct. 14

Billy Bob Thornton is irresistible as Billy McBride, a washed-up, gin-soaked former maestro of the courtroom who, now an ambulance chaser, has no way to go but up. Pulling him out of his funk is a wrongful death lawsuit he files against an all-important client of Cooperman & McBride, the titanic Los Angeles law firm he helped found. This deadly battle pits him against former partner Donald Cooperman, a fearsome adversary you might see as his Goliath. It’s hard to tell from the two episodes previewed where this saga, co-created by David E. Kelley (“Boston Legal”), could lead, but Thornton’s “David” is ripe for redemption and worth rooting for.

“Berlin Station” Epix; Oct. 16

Could any series be more timely? A whistleblower has gained fame and notoriety for leaking secrets from the CIA’s Berlin office. CIA Officer Daniel Miller (Richard Armitage, “Hannibal”) arrives in Berlin on a clandestine mission to identify and stop this obscure scoundrel.

The mood is tense and somber. The look is brooding.

This thriller boasts an international collection of flawed or broken characters played by a global cast including Michelle Forbes and Richard Jenkins. In sum: Think John le Carre meets “True Detective.”

“People of Earth” TBS; Oct. 31

As loopy as this comedy is, it comes from a real place: There really ARE support groups for (self-declared) alien abductees. The show centers on a journalist visiting a small town to write about such a support group and the alien encounters its members allege. His initial skepticism then gives way to unsettling suspicions that he, too, has been spirited away. He is forced to claim his spot among this group of misfits – and, even more unnerving, to acknowledge the possibility of alien life. Wyatt Cenac stars as the journalist going through a major head trip as he learns to be more tolerant of others, however alien they may seem.

Practical remodeling tips for modern multi-generational families (BPT) - Parents, grandparents and children all living happily together under one roof - it’s an iconic American image you may associate with “the good old days.” In reality, more Americans are now living in multi-generational households than at any time in the past 75 years, according to Pew Research Center. The growing number of multi-generational households means homeowners, remodelers and builders are rethinking what it takes to make a home livable for multiple generations.

While some home builders have begun offering models designed specifically to facilitate multi-generational living, the reality is most people who decide to share a living space with extended family members will need to stay put and remodel their cur-

rent homes. But it’s no longer good enough to simply convert an attic room, garage or basement into an extra bedroom to accommodate the extra occupants.

Modern multi-generational dwellers want privacy when they need it, the ability to be together in shared living spaces, and the cost-savings of sharing expenses among multiple generations of adults. Families may find it difficult to achieve those objectives with a traditional mother-in-law suite, or by putting grandma in the guest bedroom or adult children in a converted garage or basement.

Instead, homeowners and remodelers are seeking to redefine existing spaces within homes. If you plan to renovate with an eye toward accom-

modating your modern multi-generational family, keep these key points in mind: Create privacy and separation

18 CLASSIFIED • Thursday, August 25, 2016 middle of dinner prep, and Grandpa wanders into the kitchen to fix himself a snack? The more people living under one roof, the more important it becomes to create privacy and separation.

If you’re converting an existing space such as a basement, garage or guest suite into living space for one generation, think about how you’ll facilitate privacy. Is it possible to create two entrances to the space - one that provides access to common areas and another that allows occupants to enter and exit directly outdoors?

Comprehensive compartmentalization In order to create effective separation, you need to ensure each generation’s private “compartment” is equipped with everything the occupants need for independence - such as cooking facilities, a bathroom, sleeping and living spaces. You may find you need to create a bathroom or kitchen in a space where installing

traditional plumbing might be problematic. Above-floor plumbing can be a cost-effective solution for virtually anywhere in a house.

Traditional plumbing may require you to open walls, add costly and extensive new piping, or even cut through concrete if the area you need to plumb sits on a slab. Rather than taking on the expense and time of traditionally plumbing a new kitchen or bathroom, above-floor plumbing allows homeowners to quickly, easily and cost effectively install sinks, showers and toilets.

Above-floor plumbing features such as a macerating toilet and drain pumps, like those from Saniflo, allow you to easily add a complete bathroom or kitchen where no drainage existed before. For bathrooms, the compact systems can fit into a closet or area beneath a stairway, and new vitreous china, floor-mounted bowls feature contemporary styling that complements modern bathroom designs.

Establish communal areas Successful compartmentalization means plenty of privacy, and privacy ensures your family shares time together because they want to - not because they’re elbow-to-elbow in one space. Communal areas allow you to fully enjoy time spent together, so when planning the space, think about the activities you’ll want to do together.

As more baby boomers enter their golden years, and millennials strive to establish their own households in the wake of the Great Recession, experts predict the number of multi-generational households will continue to grow. Multi-gen living is already at an all-time high; Pew says there were 57 million multi-generational households in the U.S. in 2012, representing more than 18 percent of the total population. In the bygone era of the 1940s, there were only 32 million multi-generational homes, Pew says.

When creating a new kitchen, choosing above-floor plumbing for sinks means you don’t have to be limited to areas where in-wall pipes already exist, or where space is available to add them. Products like the compact Saniswift graywater pump make it possible to use above-floor plumbing where no below-floor drainage exists, transporting wastewater away from a kitchen, laundry, bar sink, shower or bathroom sink.

William Arthur Ward, a writer of inspirational maxims who died in 1994, said, “Adversity causes some men to break, others to break records.”

We have been looking at declarer’s handling of bad trump breaks.

Sometimes, though, declarer needs a favorable split, but must still play carefully. In today’s deal, South is in four hearts. West leads the spade king and continues the suit when East encourages with his eight. How should declarer continue?

North’s three-club rebid was a double negative, showing a very bad hand. His three hearts was nonforcing. But South did not want to stop short of game and continued with four clubs just in case partner had considerable length there.

South starts with three top losers: one spade, one heart and one diamond. So, if trumps are 4-1, the contract has no chance. However, he should also count winners. Here, he has four hearts, two diamonds and three clubs. If diamonds are 3-3, that will permit an extra winner to be established, but that is against the odds. So, what can declarer do if hearts are 3-2 and diamonds are 4-2?

South must arrange to trump his last diamond on the board.

After ruffing the second spade, he can afford to cash one top heart, but not two (otherwise, West will remove dummy’s final trump when in with the diamond ace). Then declarer drives out the diamond ace, ruffs the third spade, cashes his second high heart, and returns to diamonds. West may trump the third, but then South can ruff his low diamond on the board.
