A herd of bison grazes Aug. 3 in the Lamar Valley of Yellowstone National Park. Bison can appear docile to park visitors but have been known to gore tourists who get too close for photographs.

Visitor misbehavior abounds as U.S. parks agency turns 100

By MATTHEW BROWN The Associated Press

YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Wyo. – Tourist John Gleason crept through the grass, four small children close behind, inching toward a bull elk with antlers like small trees at the edge of a meadow in Yellowstone National Park.

“They’re going to give me a heart attack,” said Gleason’s mother-in-law, Barbara Henry, as the group came within about a dozen yards of the massive animal.

The elk’s ears then pricked up, and it eyed the children and Washington state man before leaping up a hillside. Other tourists – likewise ignoring rules to keep 25 yards from wildlife – picked up the pursuit, snapping pictures as they pressed forward and forced the animal into headlong retreat.

Record visitor numbers at the nation’s first national park have transformed its annual summer rush into a sometimes dangerous frenzy, with selfie-taking tourists routinely breaking park rules and getting too close to Yellowstone’s storied elk herds, grizzly bears, wolves and bison.

WHERE IT’S AT

Associated Press suggest such problems are on the rise at the park, offering a stark illustration of the pressures facing some of America’s most treasured lands as the National Park Service marks its 100th anniversary.

From Tennessee’s Great Smoky Mountains to the Grand Canyon of Arizona, major parks are grappling with illegal camping, vandalism, theft of resources, wildlife harassment and other visitor misbehavior, according to the records obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request.

In July alone, law enforcement rangers handled more than 11,000 incidents at the 10 most visited national parks.

In Yellowstone, rangers are recording more wildlife violations, more people treading on sensitive thermal areas and more camping in off-limit areas. The rule-breaking puts visitors in harm’s way and can damage resources and displace wildlife, officials said.

Often the incidents go unaddressed, such as when Gleason and the children approached the bull elk with no park personnel around.

Gleason said he was “maybe” too close but felt comfortable in the situation as an experienced hunter who’s spent lots of time outdoors.

Many other area law enforcement departments are balking at the high cost of the cameras or focusing on in-car cameras.

City giving residents reusable grocery bags in eco initiative

Woodstock to buy 15,000 customized bags to reduce plastic waste BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The city wants to make it easier for Woodstock residents to opt for cloth over paper or plastic.

The city will buy 15,000 customized reusable grocery bags and distribute them to residents in an effort to reduce plastic waste. Woodstock’s Environmental and Culture and Social Awareness commissions are leading the initiative. The bags are expected in November and the commissions also are working on marketing strategy, community education and a website dedicated to the initiative and local sponsors.

About 9,000 of the bags will go to Woodstock homes and the rest will be available to buy at City Hall and potentially part-

nering stores, said Laura Crain, chairwoman of the joint commissions.

The project doesn’t have any definite sponsors yet, but there has been interest in the program, she said.

“It’s not just our main, big box retailers but small businesses that are very interested in the option,” she said. “It can actually be cost saving for retailers when customers use reusable bags. … I don’t think the community will ever get to 100 percent plastic free, but we want to see it reduced and the impact on community diminished.”

The McHenry County Board in July declared August “Bring Your Own Bag” month. That campaign is headed up by an advocacy group with the Environmental Defenders of McHenry County. The group is working with Woodstock and has

prompted similar initiatives in Crystal Lake, Cary and Algonquin, among others.

“Of course, the bring your own bag proclamation should be the beginning of changing behavior,” said Cynthia Kanner, with the defenders.

The group is working to draft an ordinance that would have retailers charge customers for paper and plastic bags, similar to Aldi stores, she said. The group would ask different towns in McHenry County to consider the idea.

“Charging has been proven to be a good deterrent,” she said. “And people are beginning to realize that some stores will give you 5 cents off if you bring your own bag. I definitely see more people bringing their own bags, but there are still way too many shopping carts coming out of the stores with tons of plastic.”

Bryson Calvin poses for a portrait Aug. 22 at his Woodstock bar and restaurant, PourHouse. Calvin reached the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro earlier this summer.

Northwest Herald reporter Nate Linhart sat down with Calvin to learn more about reaching the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, the tallest mountain in Africa.

BRYSON CALVIN n WHO IS HE: Bryson Calvin, owner of Main Street PourHouse in Woodstock n FAVORITE BOOK: “The Climb,” by Anatoli Boukreev n FAVORITE BEER: Red Dog Woodstock’s Main Street PourHouse owner Bryson Calvin started going on hiking trips at an early age.

Calvin loved the adrenaline rush and the feeling of accomplishment when he reached the top of a mountain. However, since Calvin purchased the PourHouse in 2013, it has been difficult for him to find the time to go on all the trips he wants to.

With his business doing well financially of late, Calvin, 32, decided he finally had some free time and wanted to tackle climbing another mountain again.

This summer, Calvin went on a trip to Africa, where he was able to reach the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro on July 4. He started the mountainous climb on June 26 with a group of medical students from the University of Louisville.

Linhart: What led you go on a journey like this?

Calvin: So growing up my dad and

I would go on a week or two vacation every year and a majority of them were mountaineering. So I climbed my first mountain, Mt. Rainier, when I was 12. ... I always had a very outdoor-based mind. So when I was going to school at Indiana University in Bloomington I was involved in this trip-leading group called Outdoor Adventures where I met Kyle Lanoue.

He always sends out emails of the trips he’s going on and would send them to me. … This time I was able to go, and it happened to be a trip to Mt. Kilimanjaro.

Linhart: So how was the trip?

Calvin: It was a very enjoyable

trip for about five days, but the sixth day, the summit day, was brutal. You can’t mentally prepare yourself for what those days are like. … About 75 percent to 85 percent of climbing is mental. You can go get in the best shape of your life and think you’re going to dominate something but still not be mentally ready. Don’t get me wrong, the scenery and everything was beautiful, but that last day was so mentally challenging.

Linhart: How satisfying was it reaching the top?

Calvin: Once we got there and were

told we made it to Stella Point I started crying, and not because of the physical part but just the mental grind it had on my body. … But there’s no other feeling I’ve ever experienced of satisfaction when I reached the top.

We had a 360-degree view of the top of that peak. The earth curved around everywhere, there’s nothing I’ve ever experienced like that.

Buy or Refi...

Nancy Howley

Linhart: So what does it take to prepare for something like this physically and mentally?

Calvin: For the training aspect, my girlfriend [Yesenia] and I would go on runs three to four times a week.

We’d go on a run in the northern parts of Woodstock trying to average a seven- to eight-minute mile of just running, but I also had an elevation training mask on to simulate altitude.

It inhibits your breathing so it really stretches out your diaphragm and your lungs.

Linhart: Why go on such a mentally tasking trip like this then?

Calvin: I always had a pipe dream

of doing the seven summits when I started climbing when I was younger, with Mt. Everest being my last. But I want to also experience the other mountains that other people don’t

In order to effectively treat your neuropathy three factors must be determined: • What is the underlying cause?

• How much nerve damage has been sustained?

• How much treatment will your condition require?

The treatment that is provided has three main goals:

Cymbalta, and Neurontin, and they’re primarily antidepressant or anti-seizure drugs. These drugs may cause you to feel uncomfortable and they have a variety of harmful side effects.

Peripheral neuropathy is a result of damage to the nerves. It most often causes weakness, pain, numbness, tingling, and the most debilitating balance problems. This damage is commonly caused by a lack of blood flow to the nerves in the hands and feet which causes the nerves to begin to degenerate due to lack of nutrient flow.

As you can see in Figure 2, as the blood vessels that surround the nerves become diseased they shrivel up. This causes the nerves to not get the nutrients to continue to survive.

When these nerves begin to “die”, they cause balance problems, pain, numbness, tingling, burning, and many additional symptoms.

1) Increase blood flow 2) Stimulate small fiber nerves 3) Decrease brain-based pain

Dr. Trivedi is offering this neuropathy severity examination now through Thursday, September 15, 2016.

Call 847-313-0246 to make an appointment with Dr. Trivedi to determine if your peripheral neuropathy can be treated.

Most major health insurances are accepted.

The main problem is that your doctor has told you to just live with the problem or try the drugs which you don’t like taking because they make you uncomfortable.

There is now a facility right here in Butler that offers you hope without your taking those endless drugs with serious side effects. (See the special neuropathy severity examination at the end of this article.)

Dr. Alok Trivedi will do a neuropathy severity examination to determine the extent of the nerve damage for only $25 (The normal cost of such an exam is $257.) This neuropathy severity examination will consist of a detailed sensory evaluation, extensive peripheral vascular testing, and a detailed analysis of the findings of your neuropathy.

The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to fully recover varies from person to person and can only be determined with a detailed neurological and vascular

“My neuropathy was so bad for 12 years, I didn’t think there was any hope.

I had become a burden on my family.

I couldn’t sleep a single night without pain. I couldn’t even walk my dog. My son talked me into doing the treatment. I slept through the night for the first time in years after the first day. Dr. Trivedi’s commitment to helping me was beyond any doctor I have been to. Today after the treatment, I can live, sure I have minor tingling but I can walk my dog and live a life again. Thank you Dr. Trivedi” Chuck V.

HARVARD – The Land Conservancy of McHenry County will celebrate its 25th anniversary at Art of the Land Art Show & Benefit from 6:30 to 10 p.m. on Sept. 23 and 24, at the Starline Factory, 306 W. Front St., Harvard.

A group of McHenry County artists decided to create an art show focused around the land that inspires their work and the work of so many others in and around McHenry County. Art of the Land Art Show and Benefit was born.

Now celebrating its eighth year at the Starline Factory, Art of the Land has drawn hundreds of people to the event each year and raised thousands of dollars to help preserve the natural beauty and rural landscape of the county, organizers said.

Artists and artisans from northeast Illinois will have their work on display and for sale at the gallery. Thirty percent of all sales supports TLC’s land preservation mission.

The Friday night activities include ex-

clusive presentations on stories of art inspired by the land given by three artists about their art and the creative process involved.

Also on Friday evening, there will be people’s choice voting, raffle, live music

by Ken Johnson, hors d’oeuvres, complimentary drink ticket, plus special pieces by featured artists.

On Saturday night there will be art and photography displays, people’s choice voting, raffle, appetizers and a cash bar, Best of Show winners & photo contest winners announced, live music by Cheryl Niemo and Pete Jonsson.

In addition to the fine art show, the event features a display of photos taken by amateur photographers at many of the properties TLC has preserved. Guests will have an opportunity to vote on a “People’s Choice” photograph each night.

Tickets are $60 for an exclusive Friday night, which includes Saturday admission, or $25 for a Saturday night-only ticket.

Visit www.artoftheland.org for more information about the event or call TLC’s office at 815-337-9502.

Cary Chiropractic Offices SPONSORED BY

As a practicing Doctor of Chiropractic for 33 years, there were times when patients with disc herniation or spinal stenosis would present themselvesinmyoffice. Alltoooftentheywouldbe referred out for surgical repair as many times their conditions were beyond the capabilities of spinal adjusting and physical therapy. Unfortunately, within three to five years post-surgery they would return to my office hurting again, usually as a result of post-surgical scar tissue infiltration, as the surgery ultimately failed. Consequently, more surgery was often the only treatment made available. This became a nightmare, as being a healthcare practitioner I balked at referring patients for surgical intervention with the high failure rates.

Years later, I discovered new research for spinal disc problems coming from an orthopedic surgeon from Toronto, Ontario. The treatment being used was called non-surgical spinal

decompression and was showing very positive results running at about 86%.

You can imagine my excitement and interest in this as I am a healthcare practitioner that avoids drugs and surgery. I saw the possibilities of further helping my disc patients without having to refer them out for surgery!

Several years later, the F.D.A. gave clearance for the manufacture of non-surgical spinal decompression tables. At present, I have two tables and love them. We average an 86% success rate! We used to refer 20-40 people a year for surgical repair of disc problems and now we refer only 2 or 3.

If you have neck, back, or leg pain as a result of spinal disc problems, surgery is not your first choice of treatment. Surgery for almost any condition should be a last option, not a first one.

Call our office for a FREE consultation to see if you’re a candidate for our outstanding spinal disc care.

• BODY CAMERAS

John Lieb, Woodstock police chief Harvard police Sgt. Stephen Dixon wears one of 16 body cameras as he heads out on patrol Friday. Harvard police used Minooka-based body camera company Titan and implemented the program for $20,000.

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

body camera company Titan and implemented the program for $20,000, which seemed like a steal, Harvard Police Chief Mark Krause said. The department has 13 full-time officers, a deputy chief, a detective and Krause.

“We wanted to roll this out with the idea of transparency instead of accountability,” he said. “We have a great reputation with the community, but that is built on trust, and you can’t take that for granted.”

It seems as if the law enforcement industry on a whole is migrating toward the body camera movement.

There’s value in preserving an entire

incident as opposed to only catching a few seconds of an interaction, Krause said.

But legal problems have caused hiccups for some departments. Round Lake police officers in June sued the department after they say they found out the cameras never turned off and had captured intimate moments on tape.

Other departments in Illinois – including Crystal Lake – once worried the state’s so-called “eavesdropping law” wasn’t clear enough on what was legal to record and what wasn’t.

The law has since been clarified, but

the department isn’t ready to make the leap just yet, said Thomas Kotlowski, deputy chief of operations.

Like the sheriff’s department, Crystal Lake police want an upgrade on incar cameras. Those new cameras and the technological infrastructure will pave the way for body cameras in the future, Kotlowski said.

The new servers the department has will have enough space to store video footage, he said.

“It’s not something we are opposed to. There are just a lot of details that go into beginning a program like that,” he said.

ultimately decided to not use the devices because of the expense, Sheriff’s Deputy Aimee Knop said. Patrol cars are equipped with dashboard cameras, and the department wants to upgrade the equipment in fiscal 2017, she said.

“Our department has found that a lot of our interactions are recorded via the in-car camera,” she said. “We are in our cars the vast majority of the time.”

Grant funding is available for the equipment, and some departments even have taken to crowd-funding in attempts to raise the money needed.

Woodstock police recently received a $9,600 grant to go toward the cameras, but Police Chief John Lieb estimates it will take at least $30,000 to get the program fully implemented.

The department plans to use the grant money to buy 20 cameras but with 36 sworn officers and two community service officers, there won’t be enough to go around.

“Additional funding will be required,” Lieb said. “We hope to have the program fully implemented by January of 2017. … We are moving methodically and deliberately toward implementation so everyone is protected, from our officers to members of the public.”

Mexican singer Juan Gabriel performs Nov. 5, 2009 at the 10th annual Latin Grammy Awards in Las Vegas. Representatives of Juan Gabriel have reported Sunday that he has died. Gabriel was Mexico’s leading singer-songwriter and top-selling artist with sales of more than 100 million albums. concert was Friday night at the Forum in Inglewood, California. He was scheduled to perform Sunday in El Paso, Texas.

Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto said through his official Twitter account: “I regret the death of Juan Gabriel, one of the great musical icons of our country. My condolences to his relatives and friends.”

Juan Gabriel broke ground in Mexico in 1990 by becoming the first commercial singer to present a show at Mexico City’s majestic Palace of Fine Arts, until then a forum reserved for classical musicians. The proceeds from the three sold- out concerts went to support the National Symphony Orchestra and became his most celebrated performances. His album “Juan Gabriel live from the Palace of Fine Arts”

set record sales.

A six-time Grammy nominee, Juan Gabriel was inducted into the Billboard Latin Music Hall of Fame in 1996 and received countless industry awards, including ASCAP Songwriter of the Year in 1995, Latin Recording Academy’s Person of the Year 2009, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame that same year.

The singer, who was born Jan. 7, 1950, wrote his first song at age 13 and went on to compose more than 1,500 songs.

“There are no rules when I compose songs,” he said, according to a biography published by Mexico’s Society of Music Authors and Composers.

“There are times when I’m really happy and I write something really sad, and vice versa.”

MEXICO CITY – Juan Gabriel, a superstar Mexican songwriter and singer who was an icon in the Latin music world, died Sunday at his home in California at age 66, his publicist said.

Juan Gabriel was Mexico’s leading singer-songwriter and top-selling artist. His ballads about love and heartbreak and bouncy mariachi tunes became hymns throughout Latin America and Spain, and with Spanish speakers in the United States.

He brought many adoring fans to tears as they sang along when he crooned his songs about love and heartbreak, including his top hits, “Hasta Que Te Conoci” (“Until I Met You”) and “Amor Eterno” (“Eternal Love”).

His hit “Querida” (“Dear”) topped Mexico’s charts for a whole year.

A flamboyant performer, Juan Gabriel, whose real name was Alberto Aguilera Valadez, liked to wear jackets covered in sequins or dress in shiny silk outfits in hot pink, turquoise blue or canary yellow, and he was known for tossing his head before dancing or jumping around the stage.

“He has passed on to become part of eternity and has left us his legacy through Juan Gabriel, the character created by him for all the music that has been sung and performed all around the world,” his press office said in a statement.

It gave no details on his death. Publicist Arturo de la Mora told The Associated Press that he died at 11:30 a.m. in his home. He said the family would provide a statement later.

Juan Gabriel performed to packed auditoriums, including New York’s Madison Square Garden and the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles. His last

ABOVE: Twinkies have been around the junk food scene since 1930, not long after Continental Baking Co. decided in 1925 to build upon its Wonder Bread success with a line of sweet “Hostess” treats. RIGHT: Jays Potato Chips got their start in the Chicago area as Mrs. Japp’s Potato Chips in 1927 before getting rebranded after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.

History of our most favorite junk foods

I read, with an equal measure of amusement and horror, that Hostess Brands is launching a new type of snack. Deep Fried Twinkies marks a yearlong collaboration between Hostess and Walmart and a new high in the ebb and flow of fast-food fatalities.

Rather than 4 grams of fat and 130 calories, these battered, toasted versions weigh in at 9 grams of fat and 220 calories. While that pales compared to the 563 calories in a Big Mac, I ask you – and be honest now – who can eat just one Twinkie?

When Continental Baking Co. decided in 1925 to build upon its Wonder Bread success with a line of sweet treats it dubbed “Hostess,” it wasn’t long before Twinkies emerged in 1930.

Today half a billion are made each year, including a “Key Lime Slime” variety in honor of the newest “Ghostbusters” film – one of several movies in which Twinkies have starred.

Twinkies remain an American staple, even after Hostess went bankrupt and even after the famous “Twinkie Defense” case of 1979, during which a man claimed – unsuccessfully – that junk food made him kill San Francisco mayor George Moscone.

Americans have always had a sweet tooth, regardless of the consequences. Confectioner John C. Warton and dentist – yes, dentist – William Morrison, both candymakers from Nashville, introduced machine-spun cotton candy in 1897 with their invention of the world’s first cotton candy machine. But their “fairy floss” really took off at the 1904 World’s Fair in

LOCAL HISTORY Kurt Begalka St. Louis. They reportedly sold 68,000 boxes of the stuff at 25 cents each.

That is particularly astounding considering the average working wage at that time was 22 cents an hour.

The 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, Chicago’s first world’s fair, is credited with putting Cracker Jack on our plates. Frederick and Louis Rueckheim, saw potential for this popular snack consisting of popcorn, peanuts and molasses. According to the Cracker Jack Collectors Association, a salesman gave the snack its name in 1896 when he exclaimed “That’s a crackerjack!” … a moniker for fantastic.

The Rueckheim brothers and a partner, Henry Eckstein, renamed the company, The Cracker Jack Co., in 1922. Milk giant, Borden Foods Corp., bought the brand in 1964 and sold it Frito-Lay parent PepsiCo in 1997.

Production moved from Northbrook to Plano, Texas.

Another snack food with Chicago roots, Jays potato chips, got its start in 1927. Leonard Japp Sr. found success with Mrs. Japp’s Potato Chips – an homage to the recipe crafted by this wife, Eugenia. But when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and “Jap” took on negative connotations, he rebranded to Jays Potato Chips. Borden bought that business, too, before it

was reacquired by the family. Snyder’s-Lance Inc. brought it out of bankruptcy in 2007 and now manufactures chips in Indiana.

What began as a two-person operation selling pretzels and nuts around Chicago has grown into a muti-million-dollar operation. The Nielsen Company found salty snacks, including chips, led all snack categories across North America during 2014, accounting for $28 billion in sales.

Last, but certainly not least, is ice cream. There are many versions of how the “sundae” came to be, but my favorite hails from nearby Evanston.

In 1890, the town – dubbed “Heavenston” by Temperance reformer and suffragette Frances E. Willard – banned ice cream sodas on Sunday.

This “blue law” came about through the influence of the Methodist church, which was not at all pleased about competing with soda fountains on the Sabbath. In response, entrepreneurs developed a sans soda Sunday (say that three times fast) with your choice of syrup.

“Objections then was made to christening a dish after the Sabbath,” recalled retired journalist and Chicagoan Richard Lloyd Jones of the Tulsa Tribune. “So the spelling of “sunday” was changed. It became an established dish and an established word

and finally the Heavenston “sundae” appeared even in Congregational Connecticut.

“I do not vouch for this as being totally accurate history, but it is the history of the word which was common gossip in my boyhood at the time the “sunday” appeared at the soda counters which I patronised.”

God’s honest truth.

Chicago brothers charged in shooting of Wade’s cousin

32-year-old mother was pushing baby in stroller when she was killed THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO – Two brothers who were on parole for prior criminal activity have been charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of the cousin of NBA star Dwyane Wade, Chicago police announced Sunday.

Darwin Sorrells Jr., 26, and Derren Sorrells, 22, also were charged with attempted murder in Friday’s shooting.

They appeared in court Sunday and were ordered held without bail.

Nykea Aldridge, a 32-year-old mother of four, was pushing her baby in a stroller near a school where she’d planned to register her children when she was shot in the head and arm. She wasn’t the intended target, Cmdr. Brendan Deenihan said at a news conference Sunday, but rather a driver who had just dropped off passengers in the neighborhood.

There is video of the incident, Deenihan said, but no weapon was recovered

Studies: Illinois’ fixed-tuition law drives up others’ costs

CHAMPAIGN – The Illinois law that locks in tuition rates for in-state students appears to have the unintended effect of driving up tuition for out-of-state students and fees for all, according to a pair of studies from University of Illinois researchers.

The law, which took effect in 2004, guarantees a freshman at a state university will pay the same tuition rate for four years. Only three other states – Oklahoma, Texas and, as of this summer, North Carolina – have similar laws. But lawmakers in places like Utah and Idaho recently have considered or at least discussed fixed-rate tuition laws.

Such laws around the country, however, increased student fees between 2000 and 2012 by 40 percent and tuition rates for out-of-state students by 28 percent, according to a study published in the September-October issue of the Journal of

and police don’t know where the weapon is.

Chicago has been in the throes of a major uptick in gun violence this year, largely centered in a few South and West Darwin Side neighborhoods, Sorrells Jr. after years of seeing declines. This July alone, there were 65 homicides – the most for that month since 2006.

Superintendent Eddie Johnson said the suspects are an example of the city’s problem Derren with repeat offenders, Sorrells which he has spoken about frequently in recent months. Darwin Sorrells was sentenced to six years in prison in January 2013 on a gun charge and was released early on parole. Derren Sorrells is a known gang member who also is on parole for motor vehicle theft and escape, police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said, adding he has six felony arrests on his record.

“They don’t care who they shoot and they don’t fear the consequences,”

Higher Education by researchers Jennifer Delaney and Tyler Kearney. In Illinois alone, 12 public universities increased their nonresident tuition rates by up to 30 percent since 2004, which was faster than other states, they wrote in a study published last year in the journal Economics of Education Review.

“Our research is showing the increase beyond what was expected,” Delaney said, because university administrators who were forced to plan out revenue needs for four-year periods appear to have increased non-resident tuition as a way to keep the money flowing, Delaney said.

Average public-university tuitions that had been under $4,000 both in Illinois and the rest of the country in 2000 grew far apart – by 2010, the average public tuition rate in Illinois was well over $7,000 a year compared to under $5,000 in other states.

Chicago Police superintendent Johnson said, noting as he has in the past that about 1,400 people are driving 85 percent of the city’s gun violence. He added that the city has gotten very good at predicting who will be the perpetrators and the victims of gun violence.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Trump stand-ins struggle to defend nominee

WASHINGTON – Donald Trump isn’t making it easy for top supporters and advisers, from his running mate on down, to defend him or explain some campaign positions.

Across the Sunday news shows, a parade of Trump stand-ins, led by vice presidential nominee Mike Pence, couldn’t say whether Trump was sticking with or changing a central promise to boot the roughly 11 million people living in the U.S. illegally, with the help of a “deportation force.” And they didn’t bother defending his initial response Saturday to the killing of a mother as she walked her baby on a Chicago street.

Questioned on whether it’s a problem that the GOP presidential nominee has left key details on immigration policy unclear so late in the election, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus demurred: “I just don’t speak for Donald Trump.”

It was a striking look at Trump’s leadership of a team he had said would help drive him to victory in the Nov. 8 election.

Firefighters work in Amatrice, central Italy, Sunday. Bulldozers with huge claws pulled down dangerously overhanging ledges Sunday in Italy’s quake-devastated town of Amatrice as investigators worked to figure out whether negligence or fraud in building codes had added to the quake’s high death toll.

Italy probes whether negligence played role in earthquake toll

By VANESSA GERA, FRANCES D’EMILIO and HAKAN KAPLAN The Associated Press

AMATRICE, Italy – Italian authorities are vowing to investigate whether negligence or fraud in adhering to building codes played a role in the high death toll in last week’s earthquake in Italy.

They also called for efforts to ensure organized crime doesn’t infiltrate lucrative construction contracts to eventually rebuild much of the picturesque towns leveled in the disaster.

Meanwhile, rescue workers pressed on with the task of recovering bodies from the rubble, with hopes of finding any more survivors virtually vanished more than four full days after the powerful quake.

Over the past two days, they found six more bodies in the rubble of Hotel Roma in Amatrice, the medieval hill town in mountainous central Italy that bore the brunt of destruction and loss of life in the powerful quake. They recovered three and by late Sunday were still working to retrieve others that were hard to reach.

It wasn’t clear whether those six were included in the overall 290 death toll given by authorities. The Civil Protection agency, which combines the figures it receives from different provinces affected by the quake, said the number is lower than the previous toll of 291 dead because of a correction in the numbers from the province of Rieti, where most of the victims died.

The quake that struck before dawn Wednesday also injured almost 400 people as it flat-

tened three medieval towns near the rugged Apennines. Prosecutor Giuseppe Saieva, based in the nearby provincial capital of Rieti, said the high human death toll “cannot only be considered the work of fate.”

“The fault lines tragically did their work and this is called destiny, but if the buildings had been built like in Japan they would not have collapsed,” Saieva said in comments carried by Italian media.

Investigations are focusing on a number of structures, including an elementary school in Amatrice that crumbled despite being renovated in 2012 to resist earthquakes at a cost of $785,000. With schoolchildren’s summer vacations in their final weeks, the school wasn’t yet in use. Many were shocked that it didn’t withstand the 6.2 magnitude quake.

After an entire first-grade class and a teacher were killed in a 2002 quake in the southern town of San Giuliano di Puglia, Italian officials had pledged citizens that the safety of schools, hospitals and other critical public buildings would be guaranteed.

Questions also surround a bell tower in Accumoli that collapsed, killing a family of four sleeping in a neighboring house, including a baby of 8 months and a 7-year-old boy. That bell tower also had been recently restored with special funds allocated after Italy’s last major earthquake, which struck nearby L’Aquila in 2009.

Italy’s national anti-Mafia prosecutor, Franco Roberti, vowed to work to prevent organized crime from infiltrating public works projects that eventually will be begun to rebuild the earthquake zone.

Turkey-backed rebels expel Kurdish forces from Syrian towns

By SARAH EL DEEB

The Associated Press

BEIRUT – Rebels backed by Turkey made major gains Sunday in northern Syria, expelling Kurdish-led forces from towns and villages as part of a determined campaign by Ankara to push the militants east of the Euphrates River.

At least 35 civilians were killed, according to activists. The dramatic escalation of Turkey’s involvement in the Syrian civil war last week aimed to help the Syrian rebels drive the Islamic State group out of the border town of Jarablus. But it also is aimed at U.S.-allied Kurdish forces that have gained control in recent months of most of the territory along the Turkey-Syria border.

The fighting pits Turkey, a NATO ally, against a U.S.-backed proxy that is the most effective ground force battling IS militants in Syria in the 5-year-old civil war. It leaves Washington in the tough spot of having to choose between its two of its allied forces, and is likely to divert resources from the fight against IS. A Turkish soldier was killed by a Kurdish rocket attack late Saturday, the first such fatality in Turkey’s ground offensive dubbed Euphrates Shield that began Aug. 24.

Turkish troops return from the Syrian border Saturday in Karkamis, Turkey. Turkey on Wednesday sent tanks across the border to help Syrian rebels retake the key Islamic Stateheld Jarablus and to contain the expansion of Syria’s Kurds in an area bordering Turkey.

Speaking at a rally in the border town of Gaziantep, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said his military is committed to fighting terrorism in Syria and Iraq.

Turkey, he said, also is determined to “uproot” the Syrian Kurdish group, calling it a terrorist organization. But he didn’t specify a goal for the fight

against the Kurdish forces.

Turkey is part of the U.S.-led coalition fighting the militants of the Islamic State group, but the airstrikes that began Saturday marked the first time it has targeted Kurdish-led forces in Syria.

“We will support all work to clean Syria and Iraq of Daesh,” Erdogan told

the rally, using an Arabic acronym for the IS group. “That’s why we are in Jarablus, that’s why we are in Bashiqa [in Iraq]. If necessary, we will not shy away from taking responsibility in the same way in other areas.”

Turkey has troops stationed in Bashiqa in northern Iraq, and it was not clear if his reference to Jarablus means he intends to base his troops there.

Erdogan then turned his focus to the main Syrian Kurdish Democratic Union Party, known as the PYD. “We are as determined about the PYD, the separatist terror organization’s Syrian wing,” he said. Ankara views the PYD and the militia affiliated with it, which forms the backbone of the U.S.-backed Syria Democratic Forces, or SDF, as an extension of the Kurdish insurgency that is raging in southeastern Turkey.

“We will continue until we uproot this terror organization,” Erdogan told the rally.

A spokesman for a Syrian rebel group said the Turkish-backed offensive will continue south of Jarablus to clear IS and Kurdish forces from northeastern Aleppo. Turkish leaders have vowed to drive both IS and the Kurdish People’s Protection Units, or YPG, away from the border.

Beyonce proves she’s in a lane of her own at VMAs

Rebel movement leader sets permanent cease-fire under Colombia peace deal

By ANDREA RODRIGUEZ The Associated Press

HAVANA – The commander of Colombia’s biggest rebel movement said Sunday its fighters will permanently cease hostilities with the government beginning with the first minute of Monday, as a result of their peace accord ending one of the world’s longest-running conflicts.

Rodrigo Londono, leader of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, made the announcement in Havana, where the two sides negotiated for four years before announcing the peace deal Wednesday.

“Never again will parents be burying their sons and daughters killed in the war,” said Londono, who also is known as Timochenko. “All rivalries and grudges will remain in the past.”

Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos announced Friday that his military would cease attacks on the FARC beginning Monday.

Colombia is expected to hold a national referendum Oct. 2 to give voters

the chance to approve the deal for ending a half-century of political violence that has claimed more than 220,000 lives and driven more than 5 million people from their homes Top FARC commanders are planning to gather one final time in mid-September to ratify the accord.

FARC guerrillas are supposed to turn over their weapons within six months after the deal is formally signed. In return, the FARC’s still unnamed future political movement will be given a minimum 10 congressional seats – five in the lower house, five in the Senate – for two legislative periods.

In addition, 16 lower house seats will be created for grassroots activists in rural areas traditionally neglected by the state and in which existing political parties will be banned from running candidates. Critics of the peace process contend that will further boost the rebels’ post-conflict political power.

After 2026, both arrangements would end and the former rebels would have to demonstrate their political strength at the ballot box.

NEW YORK – Beyonce proved once again she is the contemporary rock star, and she used the MTV Video Music Awards stage to showcase her skills and outshine her peers, from Rihanna to Britney Spears.

Beyonce won eight awards, including video of the year, and performed five songs from her visual album “Lemonade” in an epic 16-minute concert Sunday that had the audience at Madison Square Garden in awe.

She sang live, danced heavily and worked the crowd as she ran through “Pray You Catch Me,” “Holy Up,” ‘’Sorry,” ‘’Don’t Hurt Yourself” and “Formation,” which won the top prize over Adele, Drake, Justin Bieber and Kanye West.

“First of all, I’d like to thank my beautiful daughter and my incredible husband for all of their support,” said Beyonce, who walked the carpet with daughter Blue Ivy and the mothers of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and

Eric Garner – who all appeared in the “Lemonade” movie.

It was reminiscent of the 2014 VMAs, when Beyonce also performed for 16 minutes and accepted the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard award. This year it was awarded to Rihanna, who split up her performances throughout the night, singing hits such as “Work,” ‘’We Found Love” and “Love on the Brain.”

But the biggest moment for Rihanna came when Drake – in a tuxedo – presented the award to his former girlfriend. He said he met Rihanna in 2005 on the set of her first music video for “Pon de Replay.”

“She’s someone I’ve been in love with her since I was 22 years old,” Drake said as Rihanna blushed and the audience cheered loudly. “She’s one of my best friends in the world. All of my adult life I’ve looked up to her even though she’s younger than me.”

Rihanna, 28, thanked her family, friends and hometown of Saint Michael, Barbados, for helping her succeed in her 11-year-career.

Shocking, even for the Clintons

The latest bunch of Clinton-era State Department emails released this week provide a host of instances in which donations to the Clinton Foundation netted the donors access to the secretary of state herself on an expedited basis.

For the record It was a shocking system even by ClinBill Clinton’s pledge to ban ton standards. foreign and corporate donations The latest group of to the foundation should Hillary be previously undiselected leaves too much wiggle closed emails released room for the kind of access buying

by Judicial Watch, that ran rampant during Mrs. Clinwhich obtained them ton’s State Department years. under a court order, showed that Hillary Clinton’s top aide, Huma Abedin, served as a facilitator between the foundation and State.

The documents included 20 Hillary Clinton email exchanges not among the 55,000 pages turned over to State – yes, likely among those “wedding plans” deleted from her personal server.

Many of the exchanges document how Clinton Foundation executive Doug Band had only to shoot a quick email to Abedin about, say, how much trouble Crown Prince Salman of Bahrain ($32 million donor to the Clinton Global Initiative plus at least $50,000 from the Kingdom to the foundation) was having getting in to see “hrc.” Well, would tomorrow be soon enough?

And then there’s the exchange about Slimfast tycoon S. Daniel Abraham (donor of between $5 million and $10 million to the foundation) who just wanted 15 minutes of the secretary’s time. No problem, even if her plane had to be kept waiting.

St. Louis political power broker Joyce Aboussie (between $100,000 and $250,000 to the foundation) wanted to bring by an executive from Peabody Energy. “Working on it,” Abedin responded.

The newly released emails also show that the effort to put Rajiv Fernando ($1 million foundation donor) on the sensitive International Security Advisory Board, despite an utter lack of experience, dated back to June 2009. Appointed in 2011 he was later forced to resign.

Bill Clinton’s pledge to ban foreign and corporate donations to the foundation should Hillary be elected leaves way too much wiggle room for precisely the kind of access buying that ran rampant during Mrs. Clinton’s State Department years.

Nothing short of closing up shop will do.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Jill Stein’s fairy-tale candidacy

Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein argues that Americans should not vote for the lesser of two evils.

Instead of voting out of fear, they should vote for the most deserving candidate. Unfortunately for Stein, even if you accepted the logic, it would not lead this year to a vote for her.

Stein stressed some important issues, especially climate change. As an activist in her home state of Massachusetts, she worked to shut down polluting, coal-fired power plants, and she says she would bring that activist’s sensibility to the Oval Office.

But Stein’s policy ideas are poorly formed and wildly impractical. Her “activist” approach, she said, involves building “broad coalitions,” but she criticized Hillary Clinton for reaching out to Republicans. She proposes to end all use of coal, oil, gasoline and nuclear power by 2030, guaran-

teeing a federal job to anyone who wants one along the way, and says she can accomplish this revolution for $500 billion – less than the cost of President Barack Obama’s 2009 stimulus. Even this trifle would be recouped in health savings, she said, as her “Green New Deal” reduced the incidence of asthma, diabetes and other illnesses.

There would no doubt be health benefits. But Stein is nevertheless spinning up a fairy tale – an appealing fairly tale to some, but still a fairy tale.

To support the feasibility of her plan, Stein cited experts whose models in fact envision an energy transition taking decades longer than she posits.

To support her health prognostication, she improbably cited Cuba’s experience losing access to Russian oil after the fall of the Soviet Union, after which, she pointed out, Cubans

became healthier.

In fact, they became healthier because they could no longer afford to smoke or drink alcohol and because so many involuntarily lost weight.

On foreign policy, Stein expressed general accord with her running mate, Ajamu Baraka, who has decried the “unimaginable atrocities fomented by a demented and dying U.S. empire ... and the gangster states of NATO,” though she said she might choose different language. Stein would “take a good hard look at NATO” and radically reduce U.S. military activity, preferring diplomacy to respond, for example, to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

But when we asked what would make her diplomacy more successful than the Minsk process that has failed to end the fighting in Ukraine, there was not much of a response.

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

– The Washington Post

VIEWS Fredrick Kunkle smartphones and other technology in people’s cars. But she said the data do not yet show a definitive link, perhaps because crashes are reported in a way that doesn’t capture the impact of distracted driving.

For one thing, the driver might not be around to admit he was texting at the time.

Or he might lie. Hersman said she saw that in several high-profile fatal accidents when she was at the NTSB. “We know that this data is flawed in crash reports,” she said.

But the evidence that distracted driving has gotten out of control – especially from talking or texting with a smartphone – is all around us. It’s in surveys where people say they hate that other people text and drive but admit to doing the same. It’s in over-the-road research where drivers are monitored as they travel. It’s in roadside traffic counts where researchers observe passing vehicles. It’s in news accounts of fatal crashes and in lawsuits. It’s right before our eyes, if you’ll take a moment to lift your head from your phone.

But neither automotive manufacturers, the smartphone and wireless industry, nor the federal government gives a hoot. It’s probably because cracking down on the use of electronic devices behind the wheel would mean making a lot of people mad or putting a dent in all that money flowing through the online economy.

Yet the statistics also show how government can have an impact on lowering traffic deaths – inadvertently sometimes.

In 1973, an oil embargo by the OPEC states delivered a devastating blow to the United States. The nation realized perhaps for the first time that it had a gas-guzzling problem.

President Nixon signed federal legislation that incentivized the states to lower speed limits to 55 mph to conserve fuel. Only after the fact did it become clear that those lower speeds led to fewer highway fatalities. Despite warnings at the time that repealing those limits would lead to more highway fatalities, President Bill Clinton repealed those speed limits in 1995. Yeehaw!

Since then, 38 states have raised the speed limit to 70 mph or higher. Some states, including Montana, Nevada, South Dakota, Utah and Wyoming, have boosted the maximum speed to 80 mph.

The NCSL, citing a study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, says an additional 33,000 people have died because of those higher speed limits in the past 20 years. But never mind. We’ll just have to wait for OPEC to cut off the oil again.

I had a friend in college who saw the good in most things despite evidence to the contrary. She believed passionately that the federal government had imposed a 55 mph speed limit in the 1970s to save lives. She lost the bet – and maybe a little faith in government? – when she learned that it had been done to save gas.

So here we are in 2016, and the National Safety Council has issued a report this week saying that traffic fatalities have risen dramatically for the second consecutive year – an estimated 9 percent more over just the first six months this year. It seems almost quaint these days to think the government would do anything to change that, unless there’s another oil embargo.

The Council, citing preliminary estimates, says more than 19,000 people have been killed on the nation’s highways since January 2016, compared to the same period a year earlier.

This is a figure that’s nearly 20 percent higher than the number two years earlier.

Deborah A.P. Hersman, president and chief executive of the National Safety Council, said in an interview that the number of annual traffic fatalities could exceed 40,000 for the first time since 2007. Think about that before you head out this Labor Day weekend.

The jump in fatalities can be attributed at least in part to cheap gas and a decent economy, the Council says. Average gas prices are 16 percent lower this year, compared with 2015, and the mileage people have driven is up 3.3 percent. More people are dying because people are putting in more time on the road.

But that’s half the story. Part of the reason for the increase in traffic deaths is also that speed limits have gone up. Part of the reason is the smartphone in your hand. Part of the reason is government inaction. Or apathy.

“The carnage on our roadways should light a fire under our legislators, regulators and law enforcement to do even more,” Hersman said.

“Our complacency is killing us.”

Keep in mind that the increase in traffic deaths comes despite advances in the safety design of vehicles and roadways, increased use of safety belts, and success in the fight against drunk driving. Thanks to educational campaigns and serious legal and financial consequences for driving and drinking, the percentage of alcohol-related deaths has dropped from about 50 percent of fatal crashes to about 30 percent, Hersman said.

But higher speed limits are here to stay as long as we can tolerate the death toll. And little has been done to combat the habit of texting and driving despite mounting evidence that this is killing people.

Hersman, who chaired the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) from 2009 to 2014, told me she has little doubt that the increase in traffic deaths can be attributed to the distracted driving and the ubiquitous use of

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff and it’s another to tell her when.

I wouldn’t describe all of the sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in detail.

That can come across as scare-mongering and cause some kids to tune out. But I would list all of the STIs: Most kids don’t realize how many there are.

By the same token, I wouldn’t stress that some of them, if unrecognized and untreated, can be fatal. I would emphasize some of them can make it hard or impossible for a woman to bear children.

I would describe the facts about birth control. The points I’d be sure to make are no birth control is 100 percent effective, and many types of birth control will not protect against STIs. The only way to be entirely safe is not to have sex.

Finally, I’d explain sexually active females need to have a pelvic exam every year. Offer to take her to a gynecologist or pediatrician if and when she decides to have sex.

Most important, be there for your teenager. Listen to her questions and try to answer every one. Let her know that whatever choices she makes, she will always have your love and support.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at askdoctork. com, or write: Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

HOW TO PLAY Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 boxes must contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition.

PREVIOUS SOLUTION

• Monday, August 29, 2016

Dear Dr. K: I’m the parent of a teenage girl. I know it’s time to talk to her about sex, and I’d appreciate any advice.

Dear Reader: Many parents feel anxious or uncomfortable talking with their children about sex. But remember that if you don’t, somebody else will.

Teens get lots of information (and misinformation) about sex from their friends, the internet, television, magazines, books and movies. It’s up to you to make your child understand what it really means to have sex, both physically and emotionally.

Don’t worry that you will be “putting ideas” into your teen’s head. Many parents I’ve talked to are concerned having the conversation will encourage their kids to try it. In fact, teens who talk openly with their parents usually wait longer to have sex – and they are more likely to use birth control when they do.

Whether to have sex outside of marriage is a personal question, and I’m not going to weigh in on that. But it is important you state your own views regarding at what point in a relationship sex is appropriate. At the same time, don’t insist your child share your views. My colleagues who specialize in adolescent medicine tell me teens often are naturally rebellious and resist attempts to tell them what to do.

It is very important to teach your child how to say no firmly. Coach your daughter to say “no” while looking her partner in the face. Again, it’s one thing to talk to your daughter about how to say “no,”

her what you have learned and ask her why she’s doing it. When you do, ask how she thinks your brother will react when he finds out – if he doesn’t already know – and how this could affect their daughters. This may be a fling, a way to prove to herself that she’s still attractive, or a way to earn needed money. But you will never know until you initiate a conversation with her.

H A A S L E O X E UM D AM I L Y S C A O L B L A OWH MO E R N K

Dear Abby:

Clearly, America is in a state Jeanne of turmoil. I am Phillips horrified and ashamed of the senseless death occurring daily.

I deal with anxiety, particularly regarding fear of death. As a result, the only thing I’ve found I can do to cope with current events is to scan headlines, and ask my understanding husband for a synopsis of events that doesn’t include major triggers.

However, I feel serious guilt I may not be fully educating myself on recent events. Am I wrong to prioritize my mental well-being over the gravity of our country’s current situation? – Serious Guilt Dear Serious Guilt: Wrong? Absolutely not.

According to The Journal of the American Medical Association, 13 percent of Americans now use antidepressants to combat depression and anxiety. Our news media feed so many salacious details into our homes in the interest of high ratings it’s a miracle the majority of Americans aren’t in need of them.

If you are getting the news you need to know, do not feel guilty for using your husband as a filter. You are only protecting yourself, and that’s not wrong. It’s healthy.

Dear Abby: My sister-in-law “Dani” and my brother have been married almost three years. I recently discovered Dani has created a fake social media page. She posted some nude photos on it and acts like she’s single.

I suspect she is getting paid to do live nude video chatting, too.

Abby, I’m shocked over this. I’m sure my brother would explode with rage and disappointment if he knew. They have two small daughters, which leaves me to wonder if she has considered their embarrassment if they ever find out. She’s a good person, so I don’t know why she would do this. I really need your advice. – Shocked Sister-In-Law

D. F. H Franklin P. Jones, whose “Put it this Way” column was the longest continuously published feature in the “Saturday Evening Post,” said, “Nothing makes it easier to resist temptation than a proper bringing-up, a sound set of values -- and witnesses.”

A bridge player always has witnesses -- his partner and the opponents. So, if he cannot resist temptation when he should, it will not go unnoticed.

In today’s deal, which temptation should South resist? West leads the diamond king against four hearts.

What should happen?

After South opened one heart, and West made a full-blooded four-diamond pre-emptive overcall, North was worried that his side was being talked out of a slam. But he remembered that when fixed, stay fixed.

Declarer seemed to have 10 easy tricks: two spades, six hearts, one diamond and one club. In addition, there were chances for extra winners in the black suits. However, South could not resist the temptation to try to win the first trick. But when East ruffed the diamond ace and shifted to the club jack, declarer could not recover. He tried the club finesse, but West won, cashed the diamond queen, and continued with the diamond jack. A moment later, when the spade finesse lost, South was down one.

Since West’s overcall had announced an eight-card suit, declarer should have played low from the board at trick one ... and at trick two.

East can ruff away the diamond ace at trick three, but South overruffs, draws trumps, and runs the spade jack to take three spades, six hearts and one club.

rystal Lake South girls cross country coach Ken Greenfield prefers his runners go for quality over quantity with their summer workouts.

The Gators’ coach knew senior Caitlin Bruzzini needed something more.

“You get the feeling, at the level she’s at, going against runners who are more college-level, and we wanted to see if she can kind of bridge that gap a little bit and see how she handled it,” Greenfield said.

The 2015 Northwest Herald Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year embraced the idea, working her way up to 51 miles a week by the first week of August. Bruzzini, one of South’s best runners since she was a freshman, is looking to finish her career with a big season.

“Last summer, I was up to 35 miles

“Last summer, I was up to 35 miles a week. This summer, I worked up from 40 to 45.”

Caitlin Bruzzini

Crystal Lake South cross country runner a week. This summer, I worked up from 40 to 45,” Bruzzini said. “It’s been harder. I wasn’t used to running that many miles at one time. Our team’s been pretty good pushing to get where we need to be.”

Bruzzini finished 41st in the Class 3A State Meet last season and started her senior year by winning the McHenry County Meet on Saturday at Woodstock’s Emricson Park.

Bruzzini, who is starting to hear more from NCAA Division I colleges, often ran by herself during the summer because of the level she has

reached.

“I haven’t really had anyone to push me like last year when (assistant track coach and former South runner) Heather Newberry ran with me,” Bruzzini said. “This summer, I’m kind of pushing myself. I hope my times are better than last year. And I’m competing more toward the front, trying to get better. I also want to enjoy it because it’s my last year.”

Bruzzini was seventh in the Fox Valley Conference Meet as a sophomore, helping the Gators to second place as a team. She held off Crystal Lake Central’s Janine Orvis by 2 seconds to win last year. “[Bruzzini] is a good runner, and she’s been improving every year, so it’s not like a kid who’s plateaued,” Greenfield said. “Who knows where she can go when she gets to a program that pushes her to a higher level?”

4 PREP FOOTBALL NOTES

Prairie Ridge’s Ferbet earns high praise

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com Prairie Ridge football coach Chris Schremp had long been singing the praises of tight end Austen Ferbet, a big, athletic player who committed to Army this month.

But last season, with few targets at his tight end position, Ferbet toiled in relative obscurity, almost like an extra offensive tackle.

It didn’t take long this season to see why Schremp respected his tight end so much. The first three balls Ferbet touched in Friday’s 26-14 Fox Valley Conference victory over Cary-Grove went for touchdowns.

Ferbet caught a 22-yard touchdown to start the scoring, then caught an 11-yard pass and pitched it to running back Zach Gulbransen streaking down the right sideline for a 36-yard touchdown.

“Every time we’ve run that play, it’s worked exactly like that,” Ferbet said.

“We just thought they would all crash down on me and I would pitch off. It’s kind of hard to defend. We can always throw the comeback, too.”

Schremp expects teams to load up more in an effort to slow Samson Evans, the Wolves’ dangerous option quarterback, but they are prepared.

Evans likely will throw more this season. They have talented backs in Gulbransen, Cole Brown and Manny Ebirim, and they have Ferbet, who is 6-foot-4, 240 pounds.

“Austen, you saw a glimpse of his phenomenal hands,” Schremp said.

“He is an unbelievable athlete. He does things like it’s nothing. He’s amazing.

That’s the reason he’s going to West Point. He does everything like that (effortlessly).”

Getting better: Evans dealt with an injury issue in the two weeks leading up to the opener after suffering a strained quadriceps. By game time Friday, Evans was ready to go.

“Once the game started, it felt much looser,” Evans said. “A couple weeks ago, when I first got it, I could hardly

Harvard got its first win on a forfeit from Chicago Kelvyn Park. Harvard coach Sean Saylor managed to get a junior varsity game with Belvidere North on Saturday, so some of the Hornets saw action.

A-H traveled to Rockford Christian Life on Friday knowing it had a forfeit victory, but the Giants played an eight-man game with the Eagles. Giants coach John Lalor liked what he saw from several of his players. “(Lineman) Taylor (Glenn) looked fantastic,” Lalor said. “Mason Mindham ran the ball hard, David Reiter looked good on defense. Austin (Stauss) looked good at quarterback.

At least we got a game in. That was my biggest concern.”

Christian Life had only 10 players in uniform for the game, while A-H had 20.

Helping out: It remains to be seen walk. I slowly worked back in pracwhat kind of impact Richmond-Burton tice.”

“I learned each year about working hard through the summer,” she said.

“Last year, I worked the hardest and made it to state. So this summer, I really pushed myself, working harder, so I can hopefully get to state again. I feel strong right now. I feel like I did last year at the beginning of the season, getting used to harder workouts

because we haven’t done that many this summer.”

Going for 10: Crystal Lake Central won the FVC title and made its ninth consecutive trip to the Class 2A state meet last year – the Tigers have qualified every year since the IHSA went to three classes – and is ready for more of the same.

Central returns all of its lineup from last season, led by Janine Orvis, Katelyn Smith and Avani Flanagan, and could be a threat to win a team

And this is for people that are being oppressed and need to have equal opportunities to be successful. To provide for families and not live in poor circumstances.”

Letting his hair go au natural and sprinting between drills as usual, Kaepernick took the field Sunday with the 49ers as his stance drew chatter across NFL camps.

He explained his viewpoints to teammates in the morning, some agreeing with his message but not necessarily his method. Some said they know he has offended his countrymen, others didn’t even know what he had done.

“Every guy on this team is entitled to their opinion. We’re all grown men,” linebacker NaVorro Bowman said.

“I agree with what he did, but not in the way he did it,” wideout Torrey Smith said. “That’s not for me. He has that right. Soldiers have died for his right to do exactly what he did. ... I know he’s taken a lot of heat for it. He understands that when you do something like that it

“I think with two to go, I was starting to get choked up,” he said. “We worked really, really hard to get a win, and just haven’t done it. Finally all the hard work by everybody, hundreds of people at our race shop, people who have got me through to the Cup Series, it was all

paying off.”

Larson took the lead on a restart with nine laps remaining and held off Chase Elliott at Michigan International Speedway on Sunday in a duel between two of NASCAR’s up-and-coming standouts.

Elliott had a comfortable lead before a tire problem on Michael Annett’s car brought out the yellow flag. Larson had the better restart and went on to win by 1.48 seconds.

Brad Keselowski finished third.

Larson’s victory in his No. 42 Chev-

rolet snapped a 99-race losing streak for Chip Ganassi Racing dating to Jamie McMurray’s victory at Talladega in 2013.

Larson secured a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup with two races left in the regular season. Elliott remains winless, but is in solid shape to make the Chase field on points if need be.

It was the 99th career start for the 24-year-old Larson, who had 14 top-five finishes before Sunday but hadn’t won at the Cup level. The 20-year-old Elliott is winless in 29 starts.

FB Young also gone; roster reduced to 80

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com The Bears released 10 players, getting their roster to 80 players Sunday afternoon.

They waived defensive lineman Keith Browner, wide receivers Kieren Duncan, Derek Keaton and Darrin Peterson, running back Senorise Per- Senorise Perry ry, cornerback Joel Ross, offensive linemen John Kling and Martin Wallace, and tight end Gannon Sinclair.

The Bears also cut vested veteran fullback Darrel Young.

Perry is the longest-tenured player among the 10 released. He joined the team as an undrafted rookie in 2014 and appeared in all 16 games as a special teams player. He seemed set to make the team again in 2015 before suffering a season-ending foot injury in the preseason. This summer, Perry had been the No. 5 running back.

Duncan, Keaton, Peterson and Kling were undrafted rookies and had played sparsely in the preseason. Ross joined the team in the middle of camp to help the depth at cornerback. Browner made a tackle for loss against the Patriots but was behind the top six players on the D-line.

Wallace spent much of 2015 on the practice squad and had been the second-team guard. Sinclair was claimed off waivers from the Cardinals last September before spending the rest of the season on the practice squad.

Young joined the team in training camp. The Bears will enter the final week of the preseason with one fullback, Paul Lasike.

The team has until Tuesday afternoon to get the roster to 75 players.

That could include moving Hroniss Grasu and/or Connor Shaw to injured reserve.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Defiant, and determined to be a conduit for U.S. change, Colin Kaepernick plans to sit through the national anthem for as long as he feels is appropriate and until he sees significant progress in America – specifically when it comes to race relations.

He knows he could be cut by San Francisco for this stand. Criticized, ostracized, and he’ll go it all alone if need be.

The quarterback realizes he might be treated poorly in some road cities, and he’s ready for that, too, saying he’s not overly concerned about his safety, but “if something happens, that’s only proving my point.”

“I’m going to continue to stand with the people that are being oppressed,” Kaepernick said Sunday at his locker.

“To me this is something that has to change. When there’s significant change and I feel like that flag represents what it’s supposed to represent, this country is representing people the way that it’s supposed to, I’ll stand.”

Two days after he refused to stand for the “The Star-Spangled Banner” before the 49ers’ preseason loss to the Packers, Kaepernick insists whatever the consequences, he will know “I did what’s right.” He said he hasn’t heard from the NFL or anyone else about his actions – and it won’t matter whether he does.

“No one’s tried to quiet me and, to be honest, it’s not something I’m going to be quiet about,” he said. “I’m going to speak the truth when I’m asked about it. This isn’t for looks. This isn’t for publicity or anything like that. This is for people that

does offend a lot of people.”

Both Bowman and Smith are African American.

Kaepernick criticized presidential candidates Donald Trump (“openly racist”) and Hillary Clinton, called out police brutality against minorities and pushed for accountability of public officials.

“You can become a cop in six months and don’t have to have the same amount of training as a cosmetologist,” Kaepernick said. “That’s insane. Someone that’s holding a curling iron has more education and more training than people that have a gun and are going out on the street to protect us.”

In college at Nevada, Kaepernick said, police were called one day “because we were the only black people in that neighborhood.” Officers entered without knocking and drew guns on him and his teammates and roommates as they were moving their belongings, he said.

He said his stand is not against men and women in the military fighting and losing their lives for Americans’ rights and freedoms.

Kaepernick, whose hair had been in cornrows during training camp, sat on the bench during Friday’s national anthem at Levi’s Stadium. Giants wideout Victor Cruz and Bills coach Rex Ryan said standing for the anthem shows respect.

“There’s a lot of things that need to change. One specifically? Police brutality,” said Kaepernick, whose adoptive parents are Caucasian. “There’s people being murdered unjustly and not being held accountable. People are being given paid leave for killing people. That’s not right. That’s not right by anyone’s standards.”

GOLF ROUNDUP

Reed wins FedEx Cup opener The ASSOCIATED PRESS FARMINGDALE, N.Y. – Patrick Reed picked up two victories in one day. He won The Barclays to assure himself a clear shot at the $10 million bonus in the FedEx Cup, and he easily secured a spot on his second straight U.S. Ryder Cup team.

Rickie Fowler, with a surprising meltdown, walked away empty from Bethpage Black.

Reed shot a 1-under-par 70 for a oneshot victory over Sean O’Hair and Emiliano Grillo.

Fowler tied for seventh and moved up one spot to No. 11 in the standings. Fowler still has a reasonable chance to be at Hazeltine on Sept. 30 for the Ryder Cup because Davis Love III doesn’t make his three captain’s picks until after the next two FedEx Cup playoff events. The fourth pick will be after the Tour Championship, so that’s another month to audition.

Reed finished at 9-under 275. He moved to No. 9 in the world ranking, and No. 1 in the FedEx Cup, and is assured of being in the top five who only have to win the Tour Championship to take the $10 million.

LPGA TOUR Canadian Pacific Women’s Open: At Prid-

dis, Alberta, Ariya Jutanugarn ran away with the title at chilly Priddis Greens for her LPGA Tour-leading fifth victory of the year – all in the past 10 events.

Nine days after withdrawing from the Rio Olympics because of a left knee injury, the 20-year-old Thai player made a 12-birdie putt on the final hole for a 6-under 66 and a four-stroke victory.

South Korea’s Sei Young Kim, a twotime winner this year, was second after a 65.

PGA TOUR CHAMPIONS Boeing Classic: At Snoqualmie, Washington, Bernhard Langer made a 3-foot birdie putt on the first hole of a playoff with Woody Austin and Kevin Sutherland to win the Boeing Classic for the second time.

8 WHITE SOX 4, MARINERS 1

Rodon continues strong 2nd half

By TONI GINNETTI For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – The changes in Carlos Rodon from the first half to the second half are easy to see by the numbers.

But second baseman Tyler Saladino has seen them in a different way playing behind the pitcher.

“He’s commanding his pitches a lot better. The first half, his changeup wasn’t Carlos Rodon where he wanted it to be, and that’s a big thing. Once he got that, you could see he could throw it when he wants and where he wants.

“Having three pitches he can control makes a big difference. And you can count on ground balls, and that moves you to another level of attention.

“You see him get to two strikes and you know he has that good slider or can put someone away with his heater. You can see he’s in control.

“And you can see the confidence in him,” he added. “Talking to him and seeing his progress, it’s been fun to watch.”

Rodon displayed all of it Sunday in a 4-1 victory over the Seattle Mariners.

Rodon pitched to 2 batters in the 7th HBP–by Walker (Eaton), by Walker (Abreu), by Walker (Abreu).

Umpires–Home, John Hirschbeck; First, D.J. Reyburn; Second, Vic Carapazza; Third, Paul Emmel.

T–2:30. A–25,538 (40,615).

The lefty worked into the seventh, limiting the Mariners to three hits until then, one a solo home run in the sixth

by Robinson Cano, his 30th.

When Kyle Seager and Franklin Gutierrez started the seventh with singles, manager Robin Ventura de-

cided to lift Rodon.

He brought in Chris Beck to face Mike Zunino, whose bunt attempt turned into a forceout.

Pinch hitter Adam Lind was announced, and Ventura called upon Dan Jennings, who got an inning-ending double play on one pitch.

“That was the big one that gave us a little momentum,” Ventura said of the play. “And then to add on (runs) late was great.”

The extra runs came in the eighth when Melky Cabrera tripled home Tim Anderson (single) and scored on Jose Abreu’s sacrifice fly.

It gave a cushion to closer David Robertson (33rd save), who stranded two runners in the ninth.

“I didn’t want to come out,” Rodon said of the situation in the seventh.

“But when you’ve got a manager who has done it for a while, he knows the game and what he’s doing and, obviously, it worked out.

“I owe some people for making great plays. Hats off to them, and a great call by Robin.”

Equal kudos belonged to Rodon (58), who continued a second half turnaround with his third straight victory.

“Carlos is really evolving,” Ventura said. “As he goes along he just seems to be getting better. There’s

more confidence there. He’s learning a lot about himself as well going through this.”

Rodon’s rocky start included a 2-7 record and seven no-decisions before the All-Star break. Then came a stint on the disabled list through July with a sprained left wrist.

“When you get your butt beat and then get a second chance, you want to make the most of it,” Rodon said of his turnaround.

“The changeup has been better, and just having more confidence,” he said.

“It’s always how you finish.”

In his past five starts, Rodon is 3-0 with a 1.47 ERA, allowing seven walks with 26 strikeouts. Cano’s homer is the only one he has allowed in the stretch.

The victory gave the Sox the season series against Seattle (4-3), a team in the American League wild-card hunt.

It also ended the homestand at 6-3 and improved the team’s home record to 35-29.

The only negative note came in the fourth when Mariners starter Tajuan Walker (4-9) hit Adam Eaton in the right forearm with a pitch.

Eaton scored on Cabrera’s double, but he left the game in the fifth because of the bruise.

X-rays were negative, but Eaton is day to day.

Baez’s casual throw costs Cubs

By TOM CONNOLLY The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES – Manager Joe Maddon isn’t worried about Javier Baez or his Cubs, even after Baez’s casual throw to second base cost his team a pivotal series.

Baez and Ben Zobrist failed to convert on a fielder’s choice and allowed a run to score in the eighth inning, and Brock Stewart and four relievers combined to four-hit the Cubs in the Los Angeles Dodgers’ 1-0 victory Sunday.

“We made a mental mistake at second and it costs us,” Maddon said. “[Baez is] a young player, but he has as much instinct for this game as anyone I’ve ever seen. I’m not going to beat up my guys.”

With one out in the eighth, pinch hitter Andrew Toles was hit by a pitch, and then Trevor Cahill (3-4) threw away Howie Kendrick’s short roller, allowing Toles to reach third.

After an intentional walk to Corey Seager and a strikeout, Adrian Gonzalez hit a soft grounder to the left side, away from the shifted Cubs’ defense.

Baez stumbled backward to field it and then threw easily to late-arriving second baseman Zobrist. Umpires ruled a sliding Seager beat Zobrist to the bag, allowing Toles to score, and a review upheld the call.

“As soon as I saw [Baez] throw to second, I knew I had a chance of being safe,” Seager said. “Fortunately, it worked out for us.”

Seager’s right foot slid into the base with Zobrist’s left foot just inches from coming down on the bag.

“I didn’t expect to be late on the play, but we didn’t communicate on the play,” Baez said. “[Seager] beat the throw. Next time, I will be better and will be in my spot.”

The Dodgers took two of three from the Cubs over the weekend.

Stewart struck out eight over five

innings of two-hit ball, and then Jesse Chavez, Grant Dayton, Joe Blanton and Kenley Jansen closed up shop. Blanton (5-2) got the win and Jansen got three outs for his 39th save.

Stewart began the season with Class A Rancho Cucamonga and was making just this third big league start. He struck out eight of the first 12 batters to set a career high and struck out six in a row during one stretch.

He also got his first major league hit with a single in the third off Jon Lester.

He was lifted for a pinch hitter in the fifth after throwing 80 pitches.

Lester struck out six and pitched three-hit ball over six innings, and the Cubs also four-hit the Dodgers.

Note: Cubs pitcher John Lackey (right shoulder strain) will throw a bullpen session Monday at home, and Maddon said Lackey is scheduled to throw a second bullpen session during the Cubs’ homestand before a decision is made about when he will be activated.
