Good morning, McHenry County ...

1-on-1 tech evens the playing field Tax bills are rising, and so is the number of tax protesters, which is a worthy discussion.

And it is true that the bulk of your property taxes go to your schools, so that has to be a part of it.

While we might have issues with how Illinois funds public education and should carefully scrutinize the use of tax dollars there, the question of whether public schools, teachers and students are vitally important isn’t a serious conversation.

And I don’t think it’s a serious conversation as to whether schools should be moving forward with providing kids the best economical technology opportunities possible. Many are doing so now, generally supplying each student with a Google Chromebook to enhance the curriculum.

Both of my kids in different Woodstock District 200 schools received Chromebooks this year and are excited about them. But since I routinely have to wrestle the MacBook away from them at home to get some work done, and parental confiscation of their other devices is

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Kevin Lyons part of their bedtime ritual, it’s hardly novel.

While many do, not all kids have that same access. And if public education is about one thing, it’s about providing all kids with an opportunity to succeed. The bottom line is that kids who aren’t exposed to technology at an early age and continuously will have fewer opportunities.

Yes, there is so much to teach kids beyond technology, but technology has to be part of the equation in 2016 education and beyond. It’s a wise use of tax dollars to make certain that it is.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Thanks to a college football player’s small gesture of kindness, it could be a long time before a mother will have to worry again about her autistic son eating lunch alone.

Tears streamed down the face of Leah Paske when she saw the photo of Florida State University wide receiver Travis Rudolph sharing a cafeteria table with her sixth-grader. Then she shared her gratitude on Facebook, and the story took off.

By Wednesday, Bo Paske had no shortage of lunch companions.

“Everyone was super welcoming him.

He was at a table full of girls, which I thought was funny,” Leah Paske said.

“The feedback has been good.”

Rudolph was among several FSU players visiting Montford Middle School in Tallahassee on Tuesday.

Group calling for property tax relief as 4 residents pay tax bills in singles

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Frustrated taxpayer Garrett Basista spoke softly and carried a backpack with $3,153 in dollar bills to pay his property taxes.

Basista, who lives in Wonder Lake, was one of 50 people who attended a Wednesday morning tax protest in front of the McHenry County Treasurer’s Office, and one of four paying property taxes in singles to protest the amount by, in a small way, tying up government resources with the time needed to count them.

“I pay $6,300 in taxes. It went up from $5,700 last year, and I don’t even have lake rights. It’s ridiculous,” Basista said.

Basista’s barber happens to be Wonder Lake barber and longtime tax fighter Bob Anderson, who convinced him to attend the protest held by the new group Illi- Bob nois Tax Revolution, Anderson which seeks to force Springfield and the state’s 7,000 or so local units of government to lower the state’s crushing tax burden.

“I pay $6,300 in taxes. It went up from $5,700 last year, and I don’t even have lake rights. It’s ridiculous.”

Garrett Basista, Wonder Lake resident Basista got off lighter than others in the audience when it comes to tax increases. The tax bill of McHenry taxpayer Dan Aylward, who helped create the protest group when he paid his first installment in June in singles, went up almost 30 percent over last year. Aylward returned Wednesday to pay his second installment of $5,734 in singles,

a dime, nickel and three pennies.

Aylward addressed the audience, a Samsonite rolling bag full of dollar bills at his feet and his $11,468.36 property tax bill in his hand, which he ripped up as he spoke. His home has been in his family for more than a century, but

Longmeadow Parkway hearing draws crowd of opponents, few supporters

Meeting sought comments on re-evaluation of project’s environmental assessment

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com ELGIN – Opponents of Longmeadow Parkway denounced the updated environmental assessment presented by Kane County Division of Transportation officials at a public hearing Tuesday.

The report reassessed the impact the four-lane, 5.6-mile highway would have on factors including wetlands, noise pollution and air quality, and said every action is being made to “avoid, minimize and mitigate or enhance resources,” in the area.

“We’re recreating more than we’re taking out,” said Carl Schoedel, KDOT director of transportation and county engineer.

Project plans show that while 5,765 trees will be removed, 11,530 new ones will be planted. While about 4 acres of wetlands will be affected, 17 acres will be created to mitigate the effect.

The project runs from Huntley Road east to Route 62 in Barrington Hills, and adds another Fox River bridge crossing that will require a toll to pass.

More than 300 people signed in at the public hearing, and nearly 40 people spoke in a packed room at the Holiday Inn Hotel and Suites in Elgin during a public forum, KDOT Chief of Design Michael Zakosek said.

Many opponents wore red stickers saying “Stop Longmeadow,” and received applause after making their comments.

“The facts have been blatantly disregarded,” Algonquin resident Laura Brehmer said, citing concerns including the

It’s going to more transportation and easier east-west routes would be a boom hurt my community, it’s going to to commerce and people coming pollute my community, it’s going to pollute my environment, and back and forth to work.” it is a symbol of the corruption of Kevin Sindelar Huntley resident politics in Illinois.” effect on trees, neighborhoods being cut off from schools, noise levels and opposition from voters.

Algonquin resident Greg Ligman said he and his wife watch Longmeadow Parkway from their home, and traffic on it is “very small.”

“There is no reason to expand this parkway,” Ligman said. “It’s not going to benefit my community.

“It’s going to hurt my community, it’s going to pollute my community, it’s going to pollute my environment, and it is a symbol of the corruption of politics in Illinois.”

Huntley resident Kevin Sindelar was one of the few who supported the highway during the forum, and said crossing the river is always a “chokehold” during rush hour.

“We’re all building houses and moving out here,” Sindelar said. “And I think more transportation and easier east-west routes would be a boom to commerce and people coming back and forth to work.”

Schoedel said the Federal Highway Administration will review public com-

Greg Ligman

Algonquin resident ments and decide whether the project needs a supplemental environmental impact statement, or if there is a finding of no significant impact for the construction of the highway.

“We can’t move forward until we clear this environmental update,” Schoedel said.

Total construction costs are estimated at about $115 million, Schoedel said, with about $14 million from federal sources, about $39 million from the state of Illinois and about $61 million coming from Kane County.

Comments on the project received through Sept. 6 will become part of the public hearing record, and can be submitted to longmeadowcomments@co.kane. il.us or mailed to Kane County Division of Transportation, ATTN: Longmeadow Parkway Bridge Corridor, 41W011 Burlington Road, St. Charles.

Clerk, League of Women Voters to host mock elections at high schools

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com Students at seven area high schools will get to weigh in before the Nov. 8 election on who should be president.

Don’t count on Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, Gary Johnson or some super PAC running commercials over the schools’ public-address systems, because the elections are mock ones and the votes aren’t binding. Rather, they’re efforts by the McHenry County Clerk’s Office and the League of Women Voters of McHenry County to get the next generation interested in choosing their elected leaders.

A limited ballot will allow students to weigh in on the proposed state constitutional amendment regarding road funding – constitutional amendments by law are the first thing that voters are asked – and federal and state offices, County Clerk Mary McClellan said.

Students at each school will learn the outcome of the election by the end of the school day.

“I believe that providing our children information about the democracy that we participate in at home before they leave for college is important – to have that conversation before they

Woodstock man arrested with more than 17 pounds of marijuana in duffel bag NORTHWEST HERALD WOODSTOCK – Woodstock police on Sunday arrested a man after finding a duffel bag with more than 17 pounds of marijuana in the trunk of his car, they said Wednesday.

Philip M. Williams, 31, of the 2200 block of South Country Club Road, Woodstock, was charged Sunday with felony charges for possession of marijuana over 5,000 grams and possession of marijuana with intent to deliver, as well as charges for no valid registration and no proof of insurance, accord-

ing to the police department.

Woodstock police stopped Williams at Route 14 and Dean Street because the car’s registration was expired. The Philip M. officer said he smelled Williams marijuana in the car, and a K-9 unit animal reacted to the trunk, which is where the duffel bag was found.

“Some common themes are frustration with the number of regulations, especially something like this where they try and be a one-stop shop, the challenges, all the labeling,” he said. “It might be that they have to have eight different menu labels throughout the store, literally daily changes because they might have different doughnut options or different sandwich options or specials during the day.

“And just to hear how challenging that is and costly that is and oftentimes, how the regulation is very punitive, so it’s not just, hey, let’s work together to make sure customers have good information. Boy, the store wants to do that, but a lot of things are written in a way that it’s just a ‘gotcha’ – that’s what I’m hearing from the companies or the stores I’m going to. They want to comply, they want to do the right thing, but it’s piling on where it’s regulation after regulation.”

After a question-and-answer session with the media, Hultgren also reflected

on his choice for president in the November election: Donald Trump. Before the Republican National Convention, he said he was “warming” to Trump but was not committed to voting for him.

“To me, it’s a binary choice,” he said. “There’s two choices: It’s Hillary Clinton, it’s Donald Trump. I’m not supporting Hillary; I’m not going to do

U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren visited the Casey’s General Store on Route 34 in Plano on Wednesday morning as part of a campaign organized by a convenience store trade association.

Hultgren, R-Plano, toured the gas station and kitchen area of the store and worked the counter, serving a couple customers, while talking with representatives of Casey’s about their concerns and issues.

Talking with the media, Hultgren also voiced support for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. “... My choice is I’m going to support Trump,” Hultgren said.

The Arlington, Va.-based National Association of Convenience Stores, or NACS, organized the event, called an NACS In Store.

“This is something I love to do, to get out and see what’s going on in the community, learn about different businesses, hearing from employees,” Hultgren said. “We heard from (NACS) that this is a program they have to allow congressmen to come in and tour, talk to some management but also with local staff, get a chance to serve some customers. And hear what’s working well, what are some of their frustrations that they’re facing, what are the challenges a store like this has to run, to be competitive, to really have what customers want and need.”

Hultgren said the store is a local employer and a benefit to the community.

“I think they employ 20 or 30 people here, so that’s a big impact in a community like Plano,” he said. “So grateful that they’re here and that they’re growing.”

Hultgren said he hears from local businesses he visits about the number

anything to help her. I don’t trust her.

I think everything she’s doing is about herself and her foundation and her family and her friends. So, very frustrating to me. New stuff every single day, more untruth, more things that she said that are just not true. So, I’m not going to support her; my choice is I’m going to support Trump.

“Do I agree with him on everything?

No, I don’t. But I also realize, I don’t know if there’s any other candidate, other than myself, that I agree with all the time. And that’s a healthy process.

Give and take, hopefully we’ll work through some of that stuff. I think he’s getting better on some things.”

Hultgren also stressed the importance of selecting Supreme Court justices.

“I really like the process Trump is going through of how he’s going to select Supreme Court justices. To me, that’s hugely important, maybe the most important thing this president is going to do, whoever it is, is Supreme Court picks. It will be at least two, maybe three, maybe four Supreme Court justices, and I really respect the process that he’s going through much more than Hillary Clinton. So, just in those two reasons, that’s enough for me to vote for Donald Trump.”

JOHNSBURG – The 1st Way Life Center in Johnsburg is holding an open house from 1 to 4 p.m. Sept. 18 at its new location.

The pregnancy support services relocated from its original location at 2020 W. Johnsburg Road to 3714 Fairview Ave. in April.

To kick off the open house, there will be a building dedication at 1 p.m. and a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 1:30 p.m.

During the event, attendees will get a tour of the new building. The open house also will have food, games, 50/50 drawings and a petting zoo for children.

Board member Connie Freund said the reason for the relocation was to increase the center’s space and she hopes that McHenry County residents come to the event celebrating the new location.

“It’s important for families to see what services we do for children and women, like ones that find themselves in a crisis pregnancy,” Freund said. “This event isn’t just for families, but for any individual that wants to see our new center.”

Services provided by the 1st Way Life Center include free pregnancy testing, free ultrasound testing, a weekly moms’ support group and community agency referrals for financial aid, housing and medical care.

RICHMOND – The Environmental Defenders of McHenry County will conduct a recycling collection, which is open to everyone in the county and beyond, from 9 a.m. to noon Sept. 10 at Richmond City Hall, 5600 Hunter Drive.

The Defenders continue to collect certain items that are not usually accepted by curbside programs, and that would be harmful to the environment if put in a landfill.

The group will not be accepting Styrofoam because there is nowhere to recycle it. EDMC is continuing to look for alternatives.

Because of the costs to get these items properly disposed of, a monetary donation will be requested, with specific fees for fluorescent bulbs, batteries, monitors or TVs: • Fluorescent tubes (50 cents to $1 each) • Batteries (household, rechargeable, car, and button) (50 cents a pound of household batteries) • Cloth items – clothing, linens, or just plain rags, clean and in a bag. You also can bring shoes, tied together by

their laces and placed in a bag.

• Reusable bubble wrap • Electronics – TVs, computers, phones, printers, electronic toys, microwaves, etc. (most anything that plugs in or runs on batteries); TVs and computer monitors (50¢ a pound up to maximum of $40 a set) • VHS & cassette tapes, CDs, DVDs, etc.

• Aluminum cans Donations and fees offset the costs of transportation and proper recycling.

EDMC is a local nonprofit, and receives no government funding to offer this service to the community.

Environmental Defenders’ recycling drives are held the second Saturday of each month, at various locations in the county. For information about the recycling schedule and types of materials accepted, visit the group’s website at www.mcdef.org/recycling or find it on Facebook at facebook.com/ EnvironmentalDefenders.

An alternate site for electronics (including TVs and monitors) and batteries is Chicago Logistic in Elgin (847429-1926).

For information, visit www.mcdef. org or call 815-338-0393.

“A hundred thousand people left [Illinois] last year, 200,000 people will leave next year,” Aylward said. “Wait and see. Guarantee it. And I may be one of them. But I will never stop fighting for this cause. I will fight until my dying breath – my last dying breath. I will fight … if I have to fly back every week to support this group, I will fly back, and I will fight. We stick together, and we will win.”

Illinois in recent years has been at or near the top of the list of states losing people. Half of Illinois residents in a 2014 Gallup poll said they would move if they could, and one in four called the state the worst to live in of all 50.

McHenry County Recorder candidate Joe Tirio, who helped found the protest group, is running on a platform to eliminate his office entirely by merging it with the county clerk’s office, which a number of other Illinois counties have done in recent years.

County Board chairman candidate Michael Walkup spoke, and in attendance were County Board candidates Tom Wilbeck and Craig Wilcox. Walkup, armed with a pie chart, told audience members that school districts by far take up the biggest slice. But Wilcox later added that every local government can tighten its belt.

“Everyone who drops a levy on you can reduce taxes,” Wilcox said.

Walkup encouraged tax fighters to run for local school boards in the April

School districts by far make up the largest percentage for McHenry County taxpayers. McHenry County government, by comparison, makes up about 10 percent of an average tax bill. Anderson and other protesters said that taxes are so high that homeowners in effect rent their homes from the government.

Anderson paid the $2,000 installment on his barbershop in dollar bills, and Lakemoor resident Rose Venegas paid about $5,500, bringing the total that Treasurer Glenda Miller’s office had to count on Wednesday to more than $16,387.

Anderson and others made it clear that Miller’s office is not the enemy – her office only collects what taxing bodies calculate they are owed. But Republican elected officials and candidates attended Wednesday’s rally to tell taxpayers how they plan to lower the burden.

Steven Reick, candidate for the 63rd House District, said he will immediate-

The group Illinois Tax Revolution will hold its next protest at noon Oct. 12 at the James R. Thompson Center, 100 W. Randolph St., Chicago. It is working to get a brief audience with Gov. Bruce Rauner.

A CLOSER LOOK | Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

Tax protesters, and some McHenry County residents who have left or are planning to leave, put the property tax burden high on the list of reasons.

The Washington, D.C.-based Tax Foundation ranks McHenry County’s property tax burden as the 29th highest for all counties in the U.S., in a state that has either the highest or second-highest burden of all 50 states, depending on what study you read.

Adding to taxpayer aggravation is that not only have bills stayed the same or increased despite home values falling after the housing bubble burst, but also that the very tax cap law passed to protect them during the good times now allows governments to capture inflationary revenue and continue to drive bills upward.

Because Illinois has more units of government than any other state – property tax bills easily can have 10 or more bodies on them – attending all or most of their meetings to ask for tax relief is a huge undertaking for a taxpayer.

“He was ahead of us all,” Tsien’s wife, Wendy, said in the university statement.

“He was ever the adventurer, the pathfinder, the free and soaring spirit. Courage, determination, creativity and resourcefulness were hallmarks of his character. He accomplished much. He will not be forgotten.”

Edith Oughton. He graduated from McHenry High School in May 1944 before joining the Marines later that fall. Tim served in WWII in the 28th regiment, 5th Marine Division and again during the Korean War. Tim married Gwendolyn M. Knaack on May 6, 1949, who preceded him in death on Jan. 13, 1982.

Tim lived in McHenry since 1939 on a family farm (on former Draper Road) which included a dairy herd and other livestock for a short time after the war. He worked for Bruhnke & Silver for 25 years before he and his brother, Philip, developed the farm into the Glacier Ridge subdivision. Tim was known for his love of nature and he planted numerous species of trees and flowers during his lifetime. He especially enjoyed the many varieties of birds that visited his bird feeders.

He was also interested in poultry and raised many different types over the years. Tim also was a long-time member of the McHenry Choral Club.

Tim is survived by daughter, Jacqueline (Jackie) Statz and husband Peter; daughter, Sally Hill and husband Clifford (Mark); daughter, Nancy Wheelock; granddaughters, Kathryn (Katie)Hill, Calandra (Callie) Ranz and husband, Jorge; grandsons, Timothy (Tim) Statz and Clifford (Matt) Hill.

SAN DIEGO – Roger Tsien, a University of California, San Diego professor who shared the 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry for helping develop fluorescent markers that could tag cancer cells or track the advance of Alzheimer’s disease in the brain, has died.

He was 64.

Tsien died Aug. 24 in Eugene, Oregon, according to a statement Wednesday from the university.

UC San Diego Chancellor Pradeep Khosla said that Tsien apparently died while on a bike trail, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported, but the cause of death had not been determined.

“Roger was an extraordinary man: kind, generous, gracious, and always the consummate scientist pushing the limits of his work to expand the possibilities of science,” Khosla said. “He was a rare talent we cannot replace.”

Tsien was a professor of pharmacology, chemistry and biochemistry at UC San Diego’s School of Medicine for 27 years.

In 2008, he shared the Nobel with Osamu Shimomura and Martin Chalfie for helping turn green fluorescent protein from a jellyfish into a research

tool that could literally illuminate everything from brain cells to bacteria.

Tsien helped create markers that, under ultraviolet light, glow in a wide variety of colors. Researchers use the markers to track cellular processes.

“Our work is often described as building and training molecular spies,” Tsien once said, according to the university.

“Molecules that will enter a cell or organism and report back to us what the conditions are, what’s going on with the biochemistry, while the cell is still alive.”

A version that surgeons can use to differentiate cancerous tissue from healthy tissue is currently in development.

“I’ve always been attracted to colors,” Tsien told the Union-Tribune in 2008. “Color helps make the work more interesting and endurable. It helps when things aren’t going well. If I had been born colorblind, I probably never would have gone into this.”

Born in New York City, Tsien began sketching chemistry experiments when he was 8 years old, according to the university, and earned his first Boy Scout merit badge in chemistry.

He took degrees from Harvard and

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – If you stay focused on what’s important to you this year, you won’t be disappointed with the results. Events that allow you to mix business with pleasure will give you the opportunity to build a solid relationship with someone you would like to collaborate with. Partnerships look inviting.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Opportunity is within your reach. Don’t risk missing out because someone is being needy or trying to make you feel guilty. Call the shots and take responsibility for your success.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Try to understand what the people close to you are experiencing. Toler-

ance and understanding will be necessary if you want to avoid drama. Focus on self-improvement, not on changing others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Put your heart and soul into whatever project you take on. A creative approach will show any competition that you are not one to mess with. Do your own thing.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Deception and disillusionment will set in if you are gullible and you believe everything you hear. Don’t worry about what others do or say. Take pride in yourself and put your best foot forward.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Keep your emotions out of any financial, legal or medical decision that you have to make. Look beyond what’s being offered and try to introduce something you discover

while doing your research.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Find a way to cut corners and free up some cash. Use your keen awareness to seek out alternative ways to make your money grow. Romance is on the rise.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – It won’t be good enough to express your ideas; you must be prepared to take action as well. Criticism will result if you show hesitation or lack consistency.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Look at change as an opportunity. Adjusting to what’s happening around you will allow you to see the positive aspects of the situation and take advantage of the benefits.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Socializing with peers will be informative. You’ll pick up interesting ideas that will play a role in some of your own plans.

Collaborate and see where it takes you. Don’t commit to something too quickly.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Emotional mishaps can be expected if you aren’t precise. False information and empty promises are apparent, and must be dealt with tactfully. Focus on self-improvement, not on changing others.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Concentrate on learning, staying informed and making plans with friends and family. A day trip will lead to an unusual encounter with someone offering a deal that’s too good to refuse.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – An important relationship will help you achieve your goals. The support you receive and the ideas that spring from discussions you have will set you on a fruitful course.

Judge dismisses social service providers’ lawsuit The ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO – A judge on Wednesday dismissed a lawsuit brought by social service providers who wanted the court to force payment on contracts with the state of Illinois, saying the issue belongs in a higher court.

After brief oral arguments, Cook County Judge Rodolfo Garcia tossed the lawsuit.

Nearly 100 social service providers, called the Pay Now Illinois coalition, sued in May over fallout from the state’s unprecedented budget stalemate.

They argued the state breached its service contracts and they were owed roughly $160 million collectively for services, including health care and programs to fight homelessness.

The lawsuit named Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner, who has been deadlocked on a full year budget with the Democratic-controlled Legisla-

Group asks state high court for redistricting rehearing

CHICAGO – A group that has led an effort to change how political boundaries are drawn in Illinois asked the state Supreme Court on Wednesday to reconsider its ruling that a voter referendum on the issue is unconstitutional.

The Illinois Supreme Court ruled 4-3 last week that the Independent Maps coalition’s ballot initiative seeking to give legislative mapmaking power to an independent commission instead of lawmakers didn’t meet constitutional muster. That made the measure ineligible to appear on the state’s November ballot.

However, justices didn’t rule out redistricting for future ballots. It’s the second failed attempt to overhaul redistricting by petition in two years.

The Aug. 25 ruling took place the day before an election deadline to certify fall ballots. The group needs four votes for a rehearing. They collected about 563,000 signatures for the measure.

Coalition chairman Dennis FitzSimons said the justices in the majority “were wrong and inconsistent in their

“From the beginning, this lawsuit has been about good business practices, paying signed contracts in full and on time. The state’s failure to pay – and their belief that there is no way to make them pay – sets an extraordinarily bad precedent that should be of concern to anybody doing business with the state. It calls into question whether any contracts in the state are valid.”

Andrea Durbin

spokeswoman for Illinois Pay Now ture, and the heads of state agencies.

Illinois Pay Now spokeswoman Andrea Durbin said the group will consider an appeal.

“From the beginning, this lawsuit has been about good business practices, paying signed contracts in full and on time. The state’s failure to pay – and their belief that there is no way to make them pay – sets an extraor-

dinarily bad precedent that should be of concern to anybody doing business with the state,” she said in a statement. “It calls into question whether any contracts in the state are valid.”

Last year, Rauner vetoed nearly all of the budget legislation Democrats sent him, saying it was out of balance.

The lawsuit argues that the first-term governor created an “unconstitution-

reasoning.”

“More than 563,000 Illinois voters signed Independent Map Amendment petitions, and we owe it to them and thousands of volunteers across the state to make every possible effort to convince the court that the amendment deserves to be placed before voters in November,” FitzSimons said.

On Tuesday, former Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn pitched a redistricting plan that he said would meet constitutional muster because it is simpler. He suggest an 11-member commission that the state Supreme Court appoints should draw political boundaries.

The first public hearing is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. Sept. 8 at the Howlett Building in Springfield. The second is at 10:30 a.m. Sept. 9 at the Thompson Center in Chicago.

Addiction services featured in Ill. Medicaid proposal

CHICAGO – Addiction treatment and support for long-term recovery are included in a new proposal to restructure Illinois’ $18 billion Medicaid program.

Twelve Illinois state agencies and Gov. Bruce Rauner’s office will host two public hearings next week on the proposal. It would bring in $2.7 billion in new federal money over five years if approved by Washington.

The proposal includes housing and employment services for vulnerable people, and it would strengthen prerelease services for prisoners. A pilot program would provide an injectable relapse-prevention drug called naltrexone

Prison term sought for Ill. man in photo hack case

CHICAGO – Federal court records show that prosecutors are seeking a nine-month prison sentence for an Illinois man accused of hacking into email and electronic accounts of 30 celebrities and stealing private information, including nude videos and photos.

Edward Majerczyk pleaded guilty in federal court in Los Angeles last month to one count of felony computer hacking.

Prosecutors said the 28-year-old used a phishing scheme to illegally access more than 300 email and other online accounts between November 2013 and August 2014.

His process entailed sending emails to victims that appeared to be from security accounts of internet service providers and asked for the victims’ user names and passwords. He then illegally accessed the email accounts of those who provided that private information and obtained private photos and videos.

Some of these photos were later leaked on websites such as Reddit

al” situation by vetoing appropriations, but still enforcing contracts.

Durbin said a higher court might be better suited to take up the issue.

The judge suggested further complications would be ahead for the cash-strapped state.

This year, lawmakers and Rauner agreed on a short-term budget, which expires in January, but uncertainty lingers over a full spending plan.

“The real problem we have is: Where would additional funding come from?” Garcia asked during arguments, WBEZ radio in Chicago reported.

The groups in the lawsuit include the Ounce of Prevention Fund, a Chicago-based early education organization that is run by Rauner’s wife, Diana Rauner.

The governor’s spokeswoman declined comment Wednesday, as did the Illinois Attorney General’s Office, which argued the case for the state.

and 4chan.org in a scandal known as “Celebgate.” As many as 100 celebrities were targeted, including actresses Jennifer Lawrence and Kirsten Dunst as well as model Kate Upton.

Majerczyk isn’t accused of selling the material or posting any of it online himself. Thom Mrozek, a spokesman with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles, said an investigation into who leaked the sensitive information is ongoing.

Fire marshal probes after 2 killed in house explosion

FAIRMOUNT – The Vermilion County Coroner’s Office said two people found dead after an explosion leveled a home were a 77-year-old woman and 64-year-old man.

Coroner Peggy Johnson said in a news release Wednesday that Delores Sapp and Floyd L. Walton were killed by the force of the blast Tuesday at the house in Fairmount. The town of 620 people is about 25 miles east of Champaign.

Fairmount Fire Chief Dave Ferber said the blast “blew the house completely apart.”

Ferber said the explosion left little of the home but debris and a basement that was 5-feet deep in rubble. A column of smoke could be seen for miles.

The Illinois State Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating the cause.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Historic commercial flight to keep them in school even if they’re missing paperwork or from U.S. lands in Cuba

SANTA CLARA, Cuba – The first commercial flight between the U.S. and Cuba in more than a half century landed in the central city of Santa Clara on Wednesday morning, re-establishing regular air service severed at the height of the Cold War. Cheers broke out in the cabin of JetBlue flight 387 as the plane touched down. Passengers – mostly airline executives, U.S. government officials and journalists, with a sprinkling of Cuban-American families and U.S. travelers – were given gift bags with Cuban cookbooks, commemorative luggage tags and Cuban flags, which they were encouraged to wave.

The arrival opens a new era of U.S.-Cuba travel with about 300 flights a week connecting the U.S. with an island cut off from most Americans by the 55-yearold trade embargo on Cuba and formal ban on U.S. citizens engaging in tourism on the island.

The count of homeless students enrolled in American schools, now more than 1.3 million, is nearly double what it was a decade ago. The number is expected to grow as schools relax enrollment barriers and strengthen the role of district liaisons charged with identifying and connecting homeless students with services.

The provisions take effect Oct. 1 under an expansion of homeless services in a new education law, which also will require states to break out achievement and graduation rates among the homeless.

Trump vows to remove people illegally in country The ASSOCIATED PRESS PHOENIX – Seeking to end confusion over his aggressive but recently muddled language on immigration, Donald Trump vowed Wednesday to remove millions of people living in the country illegally if he becomes president, warning that failure to do so would jeopardize the “well-being of the American people.”

Yet the Republican presidential nominee failed to outline what he would do with those who have not committed crimes beyond their immigration offenses – a sharp retreat after promises during his primary campaign to create a “deportation force” to remove the estimated 11 million immigrants living in the country illegally.

Trump instead repeated the standard Republican talking point that only after securing the border can a discussion begin to take place about what to do about those who remain, ducking the major question that has frustrated past congressional attempts at remaking the nation’s immigration laws.

Yet the fiery speech was filled with applause lines for Trump’s loyal supporters, including his insistence that immigrants in the country without permission who wish to seek legal status or citizenship must return to their home countries in order to do so.

He also drew cheers when he outlined plans to create a special task force that would prioritize the deportation of criminals, people who have overstayed their visas and other immediate security threats.

“Anyone who has entered the United States illegally is subject to deportation,” Trump charged in the highly anticipated speech, which took place hours after Trump met with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto. Any person living in the country illegally who is arrested “for any crime whatsoever,” he said, will immedi-

He added, “There will be no amnesty.”

Trump also promised to restrict legal immigration, calling for a commission that would keep the percentage of foreign-born people in the country to “historic norms.”

At 12.9 percent, the U.S. now has its highest percentage of foreign-born residents since 1920. Trump argues the high levels of immigration, both legal and illegal, have injured American workers by depressing wages.

“We have to listen to the concerns that working people, our forgotten working people, have over the record pace of immigration and its impact on their jobs, wages, housing, schools, tax bills and general living conditions,” Trump said.

The aggressive tone in Phoenix marked a shift from earlier in the day, when a much more measured Trump described Mexicans as “amazing people” as he appeared alongside Pena Nieto in Mexico’s capital city.

It was his first meeting with a head of state as his party’s presidential nominee.

Shortly after the joint appearance, a dispute arose over the most contentious part of the billionaire’s plans to fight illegal immigration – his insistence that Mexico must pay to build a physical wall along the

roughly 2,000-mile U.S. southern border.

Trump told reporters during the afternoon appearance that the two men didn’t discuss who would pay for a cost of construction pegged in the billions. Silent at that moment, Pena Nieto later tweeted, “I made it clear that Mexico will not pay for the wall.”

With the meeting held behind closed doors, it was impossible to know who was telling the truth. But the clash cast a cloud over the meeting and threatened to overshadow the evening address.

Trump told the rowdy Arizona crowd that he respects the Mexican president. “We agreed on the importance of ending the illegal flow of drugs, cash, guns and people across our border and to put the cartels out of business,” he said.

Yet, standing on American soil, he addressed directly a question he sidestepped when asked in Mexico.

“Mexico will pay for the wall, 100 percent,” the New York businessman said. “They don’t know it yet, but they’re going to pay for the wall.”

The Mexican president, however, said on Twitter that the subject was among the first things the men discussed.

“From there, the conversation addressed other issues, and developed in a respectful manner,” Pena Nieto wrote.

Clinton pitches policy to American Legion Skilled Trades and To receive an Express Lane Pass, send resume to resume@expoexpertsllc.com (Enter: AttendingCJF in Subject Line)

By CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press

CINCINNATI – Portraying a vote for her as a patriotic act, Hillary Clinton made a vigorous appeal to Republican voters Wednesday, arguing that she would best uphold American values, care for the military and protect national security interests.

At the American Legion’s annual convention in Cincinnati, the Democratic presidential nominee called the United States an “exceptional nation,” and accused Republican rival Donald Trump of thinking that approach is “insulting to the rest of the world.”

“When we say America is exceptional, it doesn’t mean that people from other places don’t feel deep national pride just like we do,” Clinton said. “It means that we recognize America’s unique and unparalleled ability to be a force for peace and progress, a champion for freedom and opportunity.”

She said America must be a leader in the world, “because when America fails to lead, we leave a vacuum.”

The speech came as Trump made a last-minute trip to Mexico hours before he was to deliver a long-expected immigration speech. Clinton questioned the move, saying it “takes more than trying to make up for a year of insults and insinuations by dropping in on our neighbors for a few hours.”

Clinton, who has an edge in many state and national polls, has been aggressively courting Republicans and independents who won’t vote for Trump but are still discomfited by her

campaign.

She stressed to the American Legion her experience on the Senate Armed Services Committee and as secretary of state and noted her role in advising President Barack Obama on the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden, saying she was “deeply honored” to take part.

The speech was touted as one that would emphasize “American exceptionalism,” an idea that the U.S., as an “exceptional” world citizen, has a moral obligation to advance democracy in the world rather than imposing it against another country’s will. The speech largely hewed to the theme of a country with a strong military and one that cares for its veterans – red meat to the American Legion audience.

Offering insight into her foreign policy, Clinton said that “we can’t cozy up to dictators; we have to stand up to them. We can’t contain ISIS; we must defeat them, and we will.”

Clinton promised to invest in the military and support veterans, pledging not to privatize the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. She said the United States must modernize the military and embrace new tactics, noting that the country should “treat cyberattacks just like any other attacks” and respond through economic, diplomatic and military means.

Emphasizing her respect for service, Clinton noted her work with Sen. John McCain, of Arizona, a former prisoner of war in Vietnam, and said she would never insult prisoners of war or families of soldiers killed in combat as Trump has.

WASHINGTON – Republican Sens.

Marco Rubio of Florida and John McCain of Arizona turned toward the general election Wednesday with GOP control of the Senate at risk, each facing lesser-known Democratic House members who’ve sought to link them to Donald Trump.

Rubio and McCain have two tough months of campaigning ahead, but on Tuesday they easily dispatched their Republican primary opponents, outcomes that underscored the party Marco Rubio establishment’s dominance of House and Senate primaries this year despite the nation’s turbulent anti-establishment mood and Trump’s outsider candidacy.

Not a single senator John McCain of either party has lost a primary this year, and in House races only five incumbents have lost, in several cases because they were under indictment or their districts were redrawn.

Rubio and McCain are supporting Trump for president, albeit with obvious reluctance after they were the target of his insults and Rubio ran against Trump for the White House.

Unlike other incumbents, Rubio and McCain are extremely well-known with their own brands distinct from Trump’s, but the mogul’s impact on their candidacies remains unpredictable in states with large numbers of Hispanics, many of whom Trump has alienated with his insulting comments about Mexicans and his hard line on immigration.

Trump was speaking about immigration late Wednesday night in Phoenix after a visit to Mexico, but McCain, who avoids talking about Trump or appearing with him, did not plan to attend. Instead he was “spending a much-deserved day off with his wife, Cindy, at their home in Sedona,” his campaign said.

McCain will face Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick, his most formidable Democratic opponent in years, while Rubio faces Rep. Patrick Murphy, a former Republican who won his primary against

unpredictable liberal firebrand Rep. Alan Grayson.

Tuesday’s primary also saw Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the controversial former head of the Democratic National Committee, easily beat challenger Tim Canova, who was supported by Sen. Bernie Sanders. Twelve-term Democratic Rep. Corrine Brown, one of the first black lawmakers elected to Congress from Florida since Reconstruction, lost her primary in a redrawn district and under indictment over allegedly using a charity as a slush fund.

In a video released Wednesday, McCain hinted at what some Republicans anticipate will become a common down-ballot strategy if Trump continues to struggle in the polls: asking voters to send Republicans to Congress as a check against a President Hillary Clinton.

“My opponent, Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick, is a good person. But if Hillary Clinton is elected president, Arizona will need a senator who will act as a check – not a rubber stamp,” McCain said, ticking off issues including taxes, the military, Supreme Court justices and President Barack Obama’s health care law.

In comments to supporters in Florida, Rubio made a similar argument not only about Clinton but Trump, too, saying that he hoped to participate in “a Senate that will act as a check and balance on the excesses of the executive branch when it goes too far, no matter who wins this election.”

McCain, the 2008 GOP presidential nominee, won the Arizona primary by nearly 14 percentage points over former state Sen. Kelli Ward, a tea party activist who had tried to make an issue of the 80-year-old McCain’s age, suggesting he was unfit to serve. McCain, in turn, sought to avoid engaging with Ward even while spending money to link her to conspiracy theories about aircraft spraying Americans with chemicals, dubbing her Chemtrail Kelli.

Rubio had announced his intention to retire from the Senate until GOP leaders led by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell lured him into running for re-election in June.

His announcement nearly cleared a crowded field, leaving wealthy developer Carlos Beruff as his only opponent. Rubio overwhelmed Beruff on Tuesday, winning by 53 percentage points and leaving Beruff to complain bitterly about Rubio’s about-face on retiring: “I guess I was silly to believe the words of a Washington politician.”

ANOTHER VIEW

Getting tough on gun runners Sometimes there’s no good alternative to a tough approach to crime.

Gov. Bruce Rauner and a large, bipartisan group of legislators have collectively decided that too many people are being held in state prisons and that the numbers should be reduced.

That may well be true, although one would have to go over each individual case to know for sure.

But the ugly reality of life on the murderous streets of big and small cities, like Chicago and Champaign-Urbana, has a way of upending even the best legislative intentions and prompting elected officials to take action that appears contradictory.

Here’s an example. Last week, Gov. Rauner signed legislation passed by large bipartisan majorities to get tough on gun runners.

Blamed by law officers in Chicago for their role in the ongoing slaughter in minority neighborhoods, gun runners are those who purchase guns legally in other states and then pass them to outlaws in this state. Authorities say that more than half the firearms recovered by police in Illinois come from another state. Indiana, Mississippi and Wisconsin are among the top three states whose firearms sales affect Illinois.

This is a deadly business, one that requires a strong public response. Whether the new legislation meets the standard of effectiveness necessary to address the problem remains to be seen.

But it appears to be a serious attempt. Whether it is or not depends on how aggressive police and prosecutors are in taking advantage of this new tool.

Under the old law, gun runners could be charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm or not having a permit.

Under the new law, individuals found to have the “intent to deliver” face a sentence of from four to 20 years for a first offense and up to 30 years for a second defense.

What’s also important about this legislation is that it represents common ground for those on both sides of the gun issue.

Pro-Second Amendment people have no sympathy for those who purchase firearms for the purpose of selling them to criminals. Gun-control advocates want to see effective criminal penalties put in the place for the same reason.

The new law won’t have any impact on what occurs in other states. But it puts real bite in the effort to discourage and penalize those who choose to traffic in firearms.

It would be nice to think that legislation of this kind would put a major dent in the problem. But no one should be so naive as to expect grand results.

This represents a small step forward on a monumental problem.

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Candidates’ health a legitimate issue

Like all of us, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are going to die. Will it be in the next four years? Probably – ideally – not.

But for voters, that’s a reasonable question, especially given that Clinton is 68 and Trump, 70.

Unfortunately, the candidates have refused to divulge the kind of information that would enable anyone to arrive at an informed opinion about their health.

Citizens weigh many factors when selecting a president, and health is a legitimate one. If a candidate is pushing past the traditional retirement age, and especially if voters have concerns about his or her vice-presidential pick, health may weigh heavily. That was the case for some Americans in 2008, when Sen. John McCain – who was 72 on Election Day – chose Sarah Palin as a running mate.

McCain, however, allowed reporters to see eight years and more than 1,000 pages of his medical records. The public learned details about his bouts

with skin cancer, kidney stones, an enlarged prostate and other conditions. That level of transparency was unusual, but given Clinton and Trump’s age, it should be their model.

Instead, both have released only perfunctory letters from their personal doctors, lacking in detail. Clinton’s doctor provided at least some information on her medical history and current vital signs, similar to what Barack Obama released in 2008.

But Obama was then only 46.

And just four years ago, Clinton suffered “a terrible concussion that required six months of very serious work to get over,” according to her husband.

Trump’s doctor issued an even shorter letter calling Trump’s blood pressure and unspecified lab results “exceedingly excellent.” He ended the letter by declaring, “If elected, Mr. Trump, I can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest person ever elected to the presidency” – giving new meaning to the term

“spin doctor.” Trump has tweeted that he has “no problem” releasing detailed medical records, but so far has not done so.

Voters have learned to take doctors’ notes with a dose of skepticism, ever since a doctor who had treated Paul Tsongas, a 1992 contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, withheld information about his history with cancer. By the time Bill Clinton took the oath of office the following year, Tsongas was back to battling cancer. He died days before Clinton’s first term expired.

That prompted calls for an independent committee of medical experts to review candidates’ medical records and release summary reports. Nothing came of it – though it remains a good idea, if still unlikely to happen.

Mandating such disclosure would be a step too far; it might not even be constitutional. But voters should demand that Clinton and Trump be more forthcoming.

A career made on maps

It is through that system that Madigan first rose to power.

After the 1980 census, an eight-member panel evenly split between Democrats and Republicans was charged with remapping Illinois’ legislative districts. But the panel failed to come to an agreement. To break the gridlock, a ninth member of the panel was drawn at random.

In an almost mythical fashion, the name was chosen out of a top hat once

Hobgoblin of little minds

To the Editor: In response to the suggestion that Jack Franks doesn’t make good on his promises: Jack may have promised to term limit himself to three terms as state representative, but it was his constituents who asked him to remain in that office, proven by the fact that he was voted in six more terms despite any opponents he may have had, and that he was a Democrat in heavily Republican territory.

Jack works tirelessly for his constituents and they know it. It seems more people of McHenry County than just the 63rd district want Jack to work for them as McHenry County Board chairman, as seen in the recent Northwest Herald poll.

As to not making good on promises,

VIEWS Austin Berg worn by Abraham Lincoln.

The name drawn was that of former Democratic Gov. Sam Shapiro. That made Madigan, then House minority leader, mapmaker-in-chief.

His map was unlike anything the state had ever seen.

While demographic trends in Chicago and surrounding suburbs spelled disaster for his party, Madigan’s first map led to a Democratic rout in the 1982 elections.

He gifted Chicago six more House seats and three more Senate seats than its population dictated. And, after voters ratified a constitutional cutback amendment trimming the ranks of the Illinois House, Madigan’s map ensured 43 of the 59 eliminated seats belonged to the GOP. “He is a political wizard,” the Chicago Tribune editorial board wrote Dec. 18, 1981.

State lawmakers quickly showed their appreciation by electing him to the speakership in 1983.

“Many of them know they wouldn’t even be in the General Assembly if it weren’t for the heavily Democratic map of legislative districts that Madigan crafted in 1981…,” the Tribune reported in a 1989 retrospective.

Madigan has held that position of power for 31 of the past 33 years.

Controversy

Madigan’s biggest political accomplishment was not without its detractors, however. A three-member panel of federal judges, for example, was displeased.

They found Madigan’s map, which extended certain city districts into predominantly white areas to save Democrat seats, unconstitutionally diluted black voting strength in Chicago.

That ruling stood as the first time a northern state had found the Democratic Party guilty of intentional discrimination against minorities, according to the Tribune.

A year later, those legislative boundaries in question were still up for grabs, and Madigan was worried.

Reportedly at his request, the U.S. District Court removed a requirement for the map to be published, because Madigan didn’t want his name on the court battle.

He was considering a run for governor. And he was scared of being labeled a racist.

“It’s a travesty,” then-state Rep. Carol Mosley-Braun, D-Chicago, told the Tribune in 1983. “Mike did draw the map, and he’s got to live with that.

It’s just that simple.”

Madigan has drawn the state’s legislative map twice more since then, after the 2000 and 2010 censuses.

The 2012 elections saw a new district splintering Decatur and Springfield by race, connecting areas of the two cities containing more black

voters. It was Madigan’s doing, and it worked. That tinkering let Democrats pick up a Senate seat and a House seat they wouldn’t have had otherwise.

Due to a U.S. Supreme Court ruling prohibiting drawing borders “primarily” to create minority districts, House Democrats had to argue in federal court that they drew the district this way for partisan reasons.

As if there were any question.

The power of the map Much of Madigan’s Statehouse success is predicated on his use of the map.

But the system he’s protected, wherein politicians get to choose their voters, has led to a lack of competitive elections, and an equally distressing lack of confidence in state government.

The current legislative districting system leaves a majority of Illinoisans without a real choice in their elected officials. Less than 40 percent of Illinois’ legislative races in 2016 will be contested.

True mapmaking reform would mean fewer politically “safe” districts, fewer tortured shapes and loads more transparency. All three require getting politicians out of the cartography business.

In a 4-3 ruling, the Illinois Supreme Court erased from November ballots a referendum on legislative mapmaking, and handed a major victory to Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan Aug. 25.

In its ruling, the Illinois Supreme Court affirmed the July 20 decision from Cook County Circuit Court Judge Diane Larsen.

This stands as the second time in the last three years that Madigan’s top lawyer, Michael Kasper, has successfully sued to stop mapmaking reform in its tracks.

The referendum in question came after the nonpartisan Independent Maps coalition filed 570,000 signatures with the Illinois State Board of Elections in May. If successful, it would have shrunk the speaker’s influence in legislative map drawing by putting that process in the hands of a broad coalition, rather than the winner-take-all system that has followed the census each decade since 1970.

No-tipping trend serving up mixed results

By SARAH SKIDMORE SELL The Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. – When the bill comes after a meal, there’s no crunching numbers for the tip – just pay and go.

A small but growing number of restaurants are doing away with the tipping model that’s long been the norm in the United States. It’s an effort to even disparate pay among restaurant staff and offer them more predictability, as well as a means to cope with rising minimum wages and other industry changes. While restaurants that have eliminated the entrenched practice have seen mixed results – and some ended up abandoning the experiment – a number of restaurants still are trying it.

“Primarily, we wanted to take the reins of compensating our employees,” said Andy Fortang of Le Pigeon in Portland, Oregon, which eliminated tipping in June.

Le Pigeon raised its prices an average of 20 percent and now compensates workers with a mix of base pay and a percentage of the night’s food and beverage sales. Cooks, dishwashers and other “back of the house” employees got a slight pay increase, and waitstaff, bartenders and other “front of the house” staff took a small cut, but everyone shares in the success of a busy night.

“The staff in our restaurants are well-trained, intelligent individuals and they are passionate,” Fortang said. “It seems fair they be paid an award for that, instead of just leaving that to someone who may or may not leave a tip.”

Some restaurant owners see tipping

Park Kitchen owner and chef Scott Dolich talks about a no-tip policy at his restaurant in Portland, Ore. The restaurant dropped tips and raised prices in June. Dolich said he also revamped shifts so most employees work full-time and in multiple roles. as a flawed system. Aaron Adams, who owns the no-tips Farm Spirit in Portland, said it creates a “weird dynamic” between the customer and server.

His hope is to keep raising pay so his staff can support their families and buy homes.

Tipping also creates a pay gulf between restaurant staff. Researchers at Cornell University and Ohio State University found that in large metro areas, the median weekly wages of frontof-house employees exceeded those of back-of-house employees by 29 percent to 80 percent. At fine dining establishments, where the gap is largest, that

means a median of $792 versus $441.

Servers in some states also contend with laws that let employers pay less – sometimes below minimum wage – and allow tips to make up the difference.

But minimum wage hikes began to raise restaurant expenses and threatened to widen the pay divide by increasing the base wage for tipped workers. A chef shortage grew more severe. And for several western states, a court upheld a federal rule that prohibits tip-sharing among all staff members, which used to be commonplace.

Only a handful of U.S. restaurants have adopted the no-tipping model, the

National Restaurant Association said.

It hasn’t always been a success.

Thad Vogler of Trou Normand and Bar Agricole in San Francisco did away with tips at the beginning of 2015 but brought them back 10 months later because he kept losing staff to competitors that did allow tipping. Joe’s Crab Shack, a national chain, reduced its no-tipping experiment from 18 restaurants to four after a poor response from customers and staff. Robert Merritt, CEO of parent company Ignite Restaurants, said the system needs to change, but “customers and staff spoke very loudly and a lot of them voted with their feet.”

Still, Union Square Hospitality Group, which restaurants in New York, is eliminating tipping at all its properties by the end of 2016 and said thus far guests have largely received it well. And a handful of notable Portland restaurants announced plans this summer to adopt the model, based on the success of restaurants in Brooklyn and Los Angeles.

“Everyone is looking at this because there are external issues that are pushing restaurants to look at their bottom line,” said Scott Dolich of Park Kitchen, which dropped tips and raised prices in June.

Dolich said he now can pay staff equitably. He also revamped shifts so most employees work full-time and in multiple roles. Wyeth Yogi, who used to work solely in the kitchen, said he enjoys the mix of work and increased pay. But it didn’t go over smoothly with everyone, and nearly all the servers left because of the change.

Springsteen breaks his own record for longest U.S. show

Rapper Chris Brown performs at the 2015 Hot 97 Summer Jam at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. Authorities said officers responded to the singer’s Los Angeles home early Tuesday after a woman called police seeking assistance.

After lengthy standoff with police, Chris Brown arrested LOS ANGELES – It seems Chris Brown can’t avoid trouble.

After a bizarre, hours-long standoff with police, the “Deuces” and “Look At Me Now” singer was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon after a woman called police for help during a gathering at his Los Angeles home.

Model Baylee Curran later told the Los Angeles Times that Brown pointed a gun at her face after he and another man became angry with her when she admired the man’s diamond necklace.

It was the latest run-in with the law for the Grammy-winning Brown, who has been in repeated legal trouble since his felony conviction in the 2009 assault of his then-girlfriend, Rihanna, ahead of the Grammys. He completed his probation last year in that case.

In the Tuesday incident, Brown was released from jail after posting $250,000 bail. His arraignment was tentatively set for Sept. 20.

The singer was arrested outside the view of news helicopters that swirled overhead and throngs of camera crews gathered at the bottom of his hilltop estate. It marked the conclusion of a nearly 14-hour standoff and investigation.

Police spokesman Lt. Chris Ramirez said officers first responded to Brown’s property in the Tarzana area of Los Angeles about 3 a.m. He did not identify the woman who called, elaborate on the assistance she needed, or know if she was injured.

Curran told the Times that she and her friend ran from the house and hid under an SUV as one of Brown’s associates gave chase.

The model told TMZ she’s visited Brown’s home in the past and never encountered any trouble.

MMR vaccine greatly reduces chances of son getting mumps Dear Dr. K: A few students at my son’s college have been diagnosed with mumps. My son has had all of his vaccines, including the MMR. Could he still get mumps?

Dear Reader: Mumps is an infection that causes swelling of the parotid glands in front of each ear. It is caused by a virus that spreads from person to person through coughs, sneezes and saliva. It also can spread through contact with contaminated items and surfaces. Once the mumps virus enters the body, it passes into the bloodstream and can spread to many different glands, as well as the brain.

People with mumps are contagious during a period that begins 48 hours before and ends six to nine days after the beginning of symptoms.

Thanks to the mumps vaccine, which was introduced in the 1960s, the number of annual cases has decreased by more than 99 percent. The measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine is given in two doses.

The first dose is given at 12 through 15 months of age. The second dose is given at 4 through 6 years of age.

The vaccine prevents most, but not all, cases of mumps and complications caused by the disease. People who have received two doses of the MMR vaccine are about nine times less likely to get mumps than unvaccinated people. However, some people who received two doses of MMR still can get mumps, especially if they have prolonged close contact with someone who has the disease. Still, a vaccinated person who gets mumps will likely have less severe illness than an unvaccinated person.

In about 15 to 20 percent of patients, mumps does not cause any symptoms.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff When symptoms occur, they usually begin 14 to 18 days after exposure to someone with a mumps infection.

Symptoms of mumps infection may include fever, headache, sore throat, muscle aches, poor appetite and malaise (a general feeling of sickness). As I mentioned, the mumps virus causes pain and swelling of the parotid glands in front of the earlobes; the swelling is called parotitis. This can make chewing and swallowing very uncomfortable.

Mumps parotitis can occur very rapidly.

I know, and not just because I’m a doctor, but because I’ve had it. One afternoon I felt lousy: my muscles ached, my energy was poor and I didn’t feel much like dinner. I went to bed early. Sometime in the middle of the night I woke up because it felt like my face was resting on a walnut someone had placed on the mattress. The “walnut” was my parotid gland. Fortunately, I recovered without more serious complications.

By getting the mumps vaccine, your son has greatly reduced his risk of ever getting the mumps. The vaccine is not perfect, and so his risk is not zero. But you can tell him from me: Be grateful there’s a vaccine. The virus got me before there was a vaccine – and it was no fun.

ing summer vacation. However, may I point out that if you have a job you “dread” returning to, it may be time to consider finding a new one?

As to past regrets spoiling your present, a way to stop dwelling on those negative thoughts would be to say aloud to yourself: “That was then. This is now. I’m wiser now.” Then make a conscious effort to reorient yourself to the present. I’m not saying it won’t take vigilance and practice, but hearing yourself speak the words may snap you back to where you belong.

However, if you can’t bring yourself to dip your toe in the water that way, ask your physician to put you in touch with a psychotherapist who specializes in relieving people of their phobias.

Dear Abby: I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I work in a school, so I have the summers off, but I can’t relax and enjoy myself. Every day I constantly think about having to go back to work when summer is over, and I dread it.

I also find myself dwelling on past mistakes I have made and regrets about things I did or didn’t do. As a result, it prevents me from enjoying the present. Do other people have this problem? Have you any advice to help me stop thinking about the past and the future and how I can enjoy the here and now? – Can’t Relax In

DEAR ABBY a young woman of 16 years, and Jeanne I’m in the second Phillips year of high school. Next year will be my last, and then I will have the pressure of relatives and friends wondering what I will do with my life. When I was little, I said I was going to be a stylist. I liked that idea, but after I did some research about it, I realized it is not for me. I also have thought about journalism and specializing in fashion, but don’t know if it’s something I want for my life. I would love to do medicine, perhaps pediatrics or oncology.

They are very beautiful professions. Should I pursue the career I always wanted as a child, or a career that I think is beautiful and will give me a good life? Help. – Julia From Brazil Dear Julia: The dreams people have as children usually change as they mature. It appears yours are no different. The careers you are contemplating now can make a huge difference in the lives of others, and reward you well if you work hard and are successful. If you would love the practice of medicine and have the aptitude for it, that’s the way I think you should go.

Dear Abby: I am terrified of driving on the interstate. It is keeping me from going places I want to go and doing things I want to do. I don’t know anyone else with this phobia. Is there any help for someone like me? – Ready To Roll In

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL: MARIAN CENTRAL 2, ST. FRANCIS 0

’Canes sweep Spartans

Win at St. Francis for 1st time with Watling in program

By ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com WHEATON – Marian Central senior Sydney Nemtuda pointed to the scrapes and bruises on her right elbow and wrist after her team’s nonconference volleyball match Wednesday night at St. Francis.

“We gave everything,” said Nemtuda, a 5-foot-11 outside hitter heading to Division-I Florida Atlantic University next fall. “All of us have bruises and everything from it.”

The Hurricanes, who defeated St. Francis last year on their home court, never had beaten the Spartans at Spyglass Athletic Center in the 17 years Marian coach Laura Watling has been with the program.

That changed Wednesday as the Hurricanes swept St. Francis, 25-21, 2521, in a showdown featuring last year’s

Noonan was critical in the attack and one of four Hurricanes to finish with four kills.

Her team-leading third block late in the second set gave Marian a 23-21 lead and forced the Spartans to use their last timeout.

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Marian Central (1) and St. Francis (3) have combined to win the past four Class 3A volleyball state titles. St. Francis was moved up to 4A last year because of the IHSA success factor rule. It won that title, too, giving the Spartans 12 total.

Class 3A and 4A state champions. Marian won the 3A title, and St. Francis won the 4A title after being moved up because of the IHSA success factor rule.

Even with St. Francis’ strong vol-

leyball history on its side, including four straight state titles and 12 overall, the Hurricanes (3-0) entered with more excitement than fear and jumped out to a 10-5 lead in the opening set.

“Honestly, that’s a huge hurdle,” Watling said. “I’ve had good teams before that have been able to compete with them, but whenever we come here, it was always just, we fold. So to be here in this gym and play the way we played is huge for us.”

St. Francis (1-2) climbed back in the first set but never re-took the lead, with Hurricanes senior Rachel Noonan providing a kill and a block on the final two points.

“It was huge (to win at St. Francis),” said Noonan, who had four kills and three blocks at middle blocker. “We were all talking after, and my class has beat them all four years (at different levels). We’ve also never won a game on this court before against them, so it’s really special.”

Have you ever rushed for 379 yards before?

No, this is the first time.

How did that feel? It didn’t feel like 379 yards.

After the game, some people were asking me how many I had. I was saying probably low 200s. I was a bit surprised.

So are you going for 400 next game? Next game, I just want to get the win.

What did you eat before the game? Sandwiches (ham and cheese), a banana and a couple Dorito chips.

What’s your pregame ritual? Listen to music, stretch out a bit. Just relax in the locker room.

Who is your biggest hero? My brother, Junior Arrojo. He plays shortstop for the Rockland Boulders (of Pomona, New York, and in the Canadian American Association of Professional Baseball). And my dad, James Williams. Junior has always pushed me, and because of the success he had playing Division I baseball at Florida International and never giving up.

My dad is always pushing me and teaching me the basics of football. He’s coached me my entire life in baseball, and for always being there for me.

Do you style your game after anybody? No, not really. I just go out there and try to play the best football I can play. I don’t really try to mimic anyone or try to play like anyone.

Do you have any nicknames? Everyone on the football team calls me “Mighty Mouse.” It started from our football coach, Coach (Mike) Steinhaus. It started because of how short I am, but also being explosive on the field.

What’s your proudest sports moment? I would say winning the Super Bowl for youth football.

Playing on varsity kickoff against Oak Park-River Forest as a freshman in our playoff game (in 2013).

Winning athlete of the week and rushing for 379 yards.

Do you have any other hobbies besides sports? I just watch movies, play Madden, play basketball in my free time. Backyard football, too.

Do you have any hidden talents? I don’t think so.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK JACK BECKER Crystal Lake South, jr.

Becker won the McHenry County Meet in 15:48.1 at Woodstock’s Emricson Park, notifying the area that he was back after a subpar sophomore season.

“I’ve been feeling really good about the training, feeling really strong throughout it,” Becker said. “It’s good to get the win.”

Becker was a force as a freshman, but overdid his training the next summer. He felt sluggish through most of his races last season.

“I wanted to improve myself for cross country, so all of my road runs were too fast to stay healthy,” Becker said. “I was giving 100 percent every workout. There was no way I could maintain that through October.”

Becker feels with smarter training this summer he is ready to have another strong season this fall.

IHSA committee officially announces recommendation for 115-pitch count limit

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com The IHSA’s baseball advisory committee officially announced its recommendation Wednesday for a 115-pitch-a-game limit for varsity pitchers.

The recommendation passed with unanimous support from the committee at Tuesday’s meeting in Bloomington, but still has to be voted on by the IHSA Board of Directors on Oct. 12.

If the Board of Directors passes the recommendation by a simple majority vote, it would become a rule for the 2017 baseball season. Each state is required to have a pitch-count rule for the 2017 season, however.

In addition to a 115-pitch maximum per game, the recommendation requires a certain number of days off based upon how many pitches a player throws in one day: n 1-30 pitches: A player can pitch a maximum of 90 pitches the next day.

A player who pitches two consecutive days and enters a game on a third

consecutive day would be capped at 45 pitches on the third day, and must then rest two days. If the player pitches a fourth time in a seven-day period, he would be capped at 45 pitches. n 31-45 pitches: A player must rest for one day. After only one day of rest, the player is capped at 90 pitches. After two days of rest, the player is eligible to return to the maximum of 115 pitches. If a player pitches a fourth time in a seven-day period, he would be capped at 45 pitches. n 46-60 pitches: A player must rest for two days. After only two days of rest, the player is capped at 60 pitches. After three days of rest, the player is eligible to pitch a maximum of 75 pitches. If a player pitches a fourth time in a seven-day period, he would be capped at 45 pitches. n 61-75 pitches: A player must rest for three days. After three days of rest, the player is eligible to throw a maximum of 75 pitches. If a player pitches a third time in a seven-day period, he would be capped at 45 pitches. n 76-115 pitches: A player must rest

for four days. After four days of rest, the player is eligible to throw a maximum of 90 pitches. If a player pitches a second time in a seven-day period, he would be capped at 90 pitches.

Rest-day requirements are the same at the freshman and sophomore levels, with the exception that the maximum pitches a player can throw is 95, rather than 115.

Coaches are required to track pitch counts for both teams and compare numbers during even-numbered innings. When schools submit their scores to MaxPreps, they must also include their own pitchers’ names and number of pitches thrown.

During the postseason, the host school must provide a pitch counter to verify each team’s pitch counts.

Rest-day requirements in the postseason are identical to the regular season with one exception: there is no maximum number of pitches a pitcher can throw in his next appearance other than the 115-pitch overall maximum.

See PITCH COUNT, page 7

In a back-and-forth second set, Marian climbed out of a 1410 deficit, tying it at 17 on an ace from Wuensch. Lauren Hanlon added a kill to give the Hurricanes a 22-20 lead, and Noonan provided her third block for a 24-21 advantage before St. Francis hit it long to end the match.

Harrison had two hits and drove in a run.

Pitching for the third straight day, Aroldis Chapman worked a rocky ninth inning for his 32nd save in 35 chances.

He threw three wild pitches and yielded Francisco Cervelli’s two-out RBI single before striking out Mercer with two on with his 11th pitch of the at-bat.

“I wasn’t going down without a fight, that’s for sure,” Mercer said.

“What do you got to lose, right? He throws the hardest ball ever, so just battle and hope for the best.”

Bryant went 2 for 4 and reached base three times while extending his hitting streak to 13 games. The second-year slugger is tied with Colorado’s Nolan Arenado for the NL lead in homers and tops the majors with 111 runs scored.

A brisk wind blowing in from left field was no match for Bryant, who drove a 0-1 pitch from Ryan Vogelsong (3-4) into the bleachers in left in the first. It was Bryant’s 10th homer in August.

Bryant made a diving grab to rob Sean Rodriguez of an RBI single in the second. He went behind the bag to take a hit away from Harrison in the third and reached into the stands to retire Josh Bell on a foul popup in the fourth.

“He just plays well wherever you put him on defense,” Maddon said.

“He’s just a good baseball player.”

Sale solid, but can’t avoid sweep

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

DETROIT – Alex Avila was told five days in advance he’d be catching Chris Sale in Wednesday’s matinee matchup against his former batterymate, Justin Verlander.

“I’m sure a lot of people were excited about this matchup,’’ Avila said.

“I know I was. It was a good baseball game. That’s what I love.’’

Avila and Jose Abreu’s solo home runs against Verlander was all the White Sox could muster against Verlander in the former Cy Young and MVP’s seven innings. Sale, the Sox’s five-time All-Star and Cy Young can-

didate, pitched eight innings of tworun ball. Both aces were gone when the Tigers walked off in the ninth inning with a 3-2 victory against closer David Robertson.

Sale, who unlike Avila, the former Tiger and son of the Tigers general manager, hasn’t enjoyed a playoff experience during his excellent career, took a different view of Wednesday’s loss, which completed a three-game sweep for the Tigers (71-61).

“I don’t come here for the experience, I come here to win games, and it didn’t happen today,’’ Sale said. “It’s tough.’’

Sale hasn’t enjoyed a winning experience since 2012, when the Sox were in

first place for most of the season, only to be passed by the Tigers in the AL Central in manager Robin Ventura’s first season. Having a talent of his pedigree on their side has done nothing to make them a postseason team, which is why the front office will consider trading him during the offseason.

It’s obvious Sale’s patience for losing is wearing thin, and this team, which had a smidgen of momentum going before this road trip, has a full month of meaningless games remaining.

“You just pick yourself up,” Sale said. “There’s no sense in stirring it up or focusing on anything. Just pick yourself up and be ready to win a ballgame tomorrow.’’

• Thursday, September 1, 2016

CHICAGO – On most days, Kris Bryant’s three solid plays at third base would have covered the defensive highlights for the Cubs.

This time, Bryant had to settle for a perfect view of Addison Russell’s sliding grab in the seventh inning.

“I had a front-row seat, and that was one of the best catches I’ve seen,” Bryant said.

Bryant hit his 36th homer and Russell drove in two runs to help the Cubs to a 6-5 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday night, completing a series sweep. But it was the defense by the left side of the Cubs’ All-Star infield that stole the show.

Andrew McCutchen’s bases-loaded walk trimmed the Cubs’ lead to 5-2 with two outs in the seventh before Gregory Polanco hit a flare down the third-base line that looked like trouble for the Cubs.

Russell sprinted over from shortstop and made a terrific catch near the home bullpen, drawing a huge ovation from the crowd of 38,137 at Wrigley Field and several swear words from his incredulous teammates.

“It was an awesome moment for us,” Russell said.

And a downer for the Pirates (6764), who closed out a 4-3 trip that began with a sweep in Milwaukee. They trail the Cardinals by 21/2 games for the second NL wild-card spot.

“The play by Russell down the line was fantastic,” Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said. “If that ball gets in the corner, you get a couple more runs.”

Jason Hammel pitched six innings of one-run ball as the Cubs equaled the best August in franchise history with a 22-6 record, also accomplished in 1932. It was the Cubs’ first time with 22 wins in a month since they went 22-10 in September 1945.

Addison Heading into the fiRussell nal stretch of the season, the Cubs (85-47) are rapidly closing in on their first division title since 2008. They begin September with the majors’ best record at a season-high 38 games over .500 and a whopping 15game lead over second-place St. Louis in the NL Central.

“You never even could imagine that you would have this kind of a lead at this particular point in the season,” manager Joe Maddon said.

Hammel (14-7) allowed three hits and struck out six in his first start since he was pulled in the third inning of a 3-2 loss at the Dodgers on Saturday, prompting the frustrated right-hander to meet with Maddon to discuss what he felt was a quick hook by the manager.

Jordy Mercer had two hits and two RBIs for Pittsburgh, which dropped to 3-12 against the Cubs this year. Josh

TENNIS: U.S. OPEN

Hit by cramps, Raonic loses to qualifier Harrison

By HOWARD FENDRICH The Associated Press

NEW YORK – The cramping became so debilitating, Milos Raonic said, he couldn’t grip his racket properly.

The Wimbledon runner-up just last month, and seeded No. 5 at the U.S. Open, Raonic began to feel pain near his left wrist midway through the second set of what would become a stunning 6-7 (4), 7-5, 7-5, 6-1, second-round loss to 120th-ranked American qualifier Ryan Harrison on Wednesday.

Eventually, the problem spread to Raonic’s right forearm. Then both thighs.

Then his left hip flexor. Afterward, his back seized up when he tried to sling his equipment bag over a shoulder. No way to try to win a tennis match. Or to serve: That’s normally his most effective stroke, yet he double-faulted 15 times.

“It was just catching me all over,” Raonic said. “I started getting small [cramps] where I couldn’t hold the racket.

I couldn’t switch grips from one point to the next. There were a few points where I would hold the racket with my left and try to stretch out my right hand in between shots – and that’s not going to work.”

He was one of a trio of highly seeded players to exit Flushing Meadows on Day 3, although the other departures were less surprising.

• PITCH COUNTS

said. “One of the main challenges will be coaches properly recording pitches and properly reporting those pitches to the database system we develop.”

Dr. Preston Wolin, a member of the IHSA sports medicine advisory committee, presented the recommendation Tuesday. He called it “historic for the state of Illinois.” He said mandating rest is the key.

“If you just have a pitch limit without the rest, the problem is the players end up getting fatigued,” Wolin said. “We know that fatigue is the primary cause of injury. I think it will decrease their injuries. I think it will make the game safer.”

One most common arguments against a pitch count in high school is that it won’t prevent travel coaches from overusing pitchers.

“As time goes by, it’s going to be

Bogda said the Gators had only one pitcher throw more than 100 pitches in a game last season.

“I don’t see too much of a change in what we’re already kind of doing,” Bogda said. “We’ve been pretty conservative with pitch counts and getting kids days to rest.”

Wolin might have said it best: “These aren’t rules for the good coaches, these are the rules for coaches who leave their kids in for way too long.

Alden-Hebron coach Brian Engelbrecht said he thinks the rule could make it harder on small schools. The Giants only had 15 players on the roster last spring and only six of them pitched. When schools are forced to play five or even six games in a week to make up for rainouts, it could cause problems for teams such as the Giants.

Continued from page 3 Some other important points to note: • A pitcher who reaches the pitch count limit in the middle of an at-bat is allowed to finish the at-bat.

• If a pitcher is ambidextrous, the pitch count limit applies to the individual pitcher, not each arm.

• All pitch count limits apply on a daily basis. A player could pitch in both games of a doubleheader, but would be capped at 115 total pitches for the day.

Sam Knox is the IHSA assistant executive director who oversees boys baseball. He said the IHSA thinks it has found a good starting point.

“There will be a lot of people watching how this process works,” Knox

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley

harder and harder for a travel ball coach to justify having a young pitcher throw more than 115 pitches in a game,” Wolin said. “The parents and kids will be saying, ‘Well, there’s this system in high school now that’s to prevent injury and now you’re telling us not to worry about it.’ We are going to have to depend on the parents and somewhat on the kids.

“We realize that the system is not perfect. No system is. The problem is that somebody has to protect the kids.”

Many area coaches already follow similar guidelines. Huntley coach Andy Jakubowski said the Raiders mandate four days off for a pitcher who throws 90 or more pitches. But programs that throw starters in for an occasional relief appearance during a week will be affected.

Crystal Lake South coach Brian

Dave’s Bait, Tackle and Taxidermy in Crystal Lake reports: “As the rains continue, it is causing the Fox River dams at McHenry, Algonquin and Carpentersville to have fluctuating water.

On days the water is rising, the fish go to the banks, and on days it falls, they pull off the bank and move out of the channels. Fishing for catfish, white bass and walleye has been good.

“Lake Atwood in the McHenry County Conservation District’s site called The Hollows has bluegill, largemouth bass and catfish available.

Nightcrawlers will work fine for them.

They also have crappie there, but live minnows are not allowed, so I recommend Berkley gulp minnows.

“Crystal Lake’s Three Oaks Recreation area is a 330-acre lake with both shore fishing and boat rental. Large and smallmouth bass, northern pike and catfish are plentiful. No minnows are allowed, and it is a catch-and-release-only lake. I like to use the Defender jig here for bass and pike. Tip your favorite craw trailer onto the end of it.

“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, “I just got back from Canada and will be back on the Fox Chain right away and have a Chain report for next week. I ran the fourth annual Musky Boot Camp on Lake of the Woods out of Sunset Lodge with Sean Bermingham on Aug. 20 to 27. Twenty-four people attended, and a lot of big muskies were caught.”

• Thursday, September 1, 2016

As you might recall, last week I wanted to discuss a moral dilemma that is rocking the hunting world on the internet. Instead, I went off on a tangent about a father/son musky situation.

In this day and age, stories hit the web with incredible speed, and opinions instantaneously are formed and published. It happens with sports and politics every day, and the worlds of hunting and fishing are not exempt.

Recently, a video was posted on YouTube and featured Josh Bowmar harvesting a large black bear by throwing a spear at it. The video was filmed by Josh’s wife, Sarah Bowmar.

The Bowmars are well-known as hunters, but probably more famous in the fitness world through their company, Bowmar Fitness.

Sarah Bowmar recently had been signed on to be part of a newly formed women’s pro staff of hunters by the Under Armour apparel company. Josh Bowmar has no business relationship with Under Armour.

The video was released and there was outrage expressed by a number of people over the killing of the bear and the manner in which it was harvested.

More than 4,000 people (yes, I wrote four-measly-thousand) signed an online petition complaining about the actions of Josh Bowmar.

Bending to this pressure, Under Armour totally overreacted and terminated its business relationship with Sarah Bowmar.

“The method used to harvest this animal was reckless and we do not condone it,” the company said in a news release. “Under Armour is dedicated to the hunting community and supports hunting that is conducted in compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws and hunting practices that ensure a responsible and safe harvest of the animal.

“Josh Bowmar is not an Under

8 PRESEASON: BEARS AT BROWNS, 7 P.M. THURSDAY, FOX, AM-780, 105.9-FM

A few jobs on the line in finale

By PATRICK FINLEY

pfinley@suntimes.com A look at which Bears will be playing for their professional lives in Thursday night’s fourth preseason game in Cleveland:

FALES PASSES?

At this time a year ago, David Fales fended off Zac Dysert – who was signed two days before the fourth exhibition – by playing the game of his life. Against the Browns, he completed 14-of-18 passes for 131 yards and two touchdowns, finishing with a quarterback rating of 134. Fales started the season as the Bears’ third quarterback and finished it as their backup, but still never threw an NFL pass.

He has the same opportunity to stick this year, but with far less momentum.

He seemed a likely cut candidate – he didn’t play in the second or third exhibition games – until Connor Shaw suffered a grisly broken leg Saturday.

The Bears didn’t sign a fourth quarterback just for the week this time around, meaning Fales will get most of the snaps against the Browns.

The lack of playing time was “obviously frustrating,” said the thirdyear quarterback, who didn’t even enter Saturday after Shaw was hurt.

“It’s nothing I can control,” he said.

“All I can worry about is myself, and focus on what I can do and keep trying to get better. It is frustrating. You want to go out there and play and get an opportunity.”

The lesson he learned from last year: relax.

“Just have fun and be decisive,” he said this week. “At that point, I kind of knew how the situation was panning out, and I really didn’t care, and I just went out and had fun.”

He let go of his worries.

“I was enjoying the game,” he said.

“It was an opportunity to play and put myself on tape. I was just excited.

Didn’t overthink it. Didn’t make it bigger than it was.”

Do well, and Fales could stick as the Bears’ third quarterback, be it as an inactive player on Sundays or a practice squad player.

WR WATCH

Calling them “one of the most talented groups I’ve ever been around,” Eddie Royal is excited to see which receivers perform well Thursday.

Assuming the Bears keep Alshon Jeffery, Kevin White, Marc Mariani and Royal – and decide their best special teamer, Josh Bellamy, is worth hanging on to – three healthy players are likely fighting

Players cleared by NFL in PEDs investigation

NEW YORK – NFL stars James Harrison, Clay Matthews and Julius Peppers can start the regular season without having the specter of a league investigation over whether they used performance-enhancing drugs hanging over their heads.

The NFL cleared all three players Wednesday, saying there was “no credible evidence” the players were guilty of any of the claims made in a documentary by Al-Jazeera America in January.

An NFL statement said “the investigation involved witness interviews, a review of relevant records and other materials, electronic research, and laboratory analysis and review.”

The league threatened Harrison, Matthews, Peppers and free-agent Mike Neal with indefinite suspensions if they did not meet with investigators.

All of them were mentioned in an Al-Jazeera TV interview with Charlie Sly, who worked as an intern at an anti-aging clinic.

In the December report, Sly made claims of PED use by several athletes, including Harrison, Peyton Manning and the three others, but later recanted his claims.

– The Associated Press sit Thursday, leaving the tight ends behind him to try to prove their worth for the fourth straight game. Vets Tony Moeaki and Rob Housler have been solid; Greg Scruggs and Khari Lee are purely blockers; and Ben Braunecker might see his first game action, exactly a month after leaving practice with an ankle injury. The undrafted rookie from Harvard could be practice squadbound.

CHRISTINE 13 YEAR OLD FEMALE TABBY DSH

Christine was found by a kind person in 2006 and she was pregnant.

She is a sweet girl and on the petite side. Because she has been on the shy side, she has never been adopted. She likes to drink water out of the faucet and really enjoys getting treats. She likes curling up in a bed or basket and taking cat naps. She has beautiful green eyes and a quiet disposition.

Lizzy came to us in 2007 as a pregnant stray. She also loves to drink water from the faucet. She enjoys a game of laser tag so much that her legs go skidding around the room. She is a dark gray with striking green eyes. She is very friendly, enjoys treats and getting some pets from the volunteers. She was adopted once but it didn't work out with the other cat in the house.

Christine and Lizzy have become friends and it would be great if they could be adopted together. If that can't happen they might do best as the only cat in the house.

Through our Senior to Senior program they would be available for no adoption fee to an approved senior citizen.

FALL FELINE ADOPTION SPECIAL: All cats that we have had for more than a year will have a reduced adoption fee of $30 for the 30 days of September. It's time to Fall in Love.

Meet all these great cats at Helping Paws located at 2500 Harding Lane, Woodstock, Illinois.

Along with hot air balloon rides, Harvard fest includes camping, market, more

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com It’s tough to predict how many will turn out for this weekend’s inaugural Harvard Balloon Fest, but organizers are prepared to host about 10,000 people a day at Milky Way Park.

And the event, slated for Sept. 2-4 with free admission, has grown from simply offering hot air balloon rides to three days worth of activities, including camping at the park, an open air market with about 40 vendors, live music, knockerball, exotic animal shows, crafts, food and drink, night glows, inflatables, a rock wall, a bungy jump, a zip line, a photography contest, games and more.

“The interest level has been unbelievable,” said festival chairman Mike Kelly, a city alderman and fan of hot air balloon festivals who suggested the event as a way to draw more visitors and interest in Harvard.

“It’s all come together nicely,” he said.

With its own website at www. harvardballoonfest.com and a Facebook page, the festival was drawing fans on social media even before its schedule was complete. Because of the complexity of selling tickets for hot air balloon rides before the event and the unpredictability of weather – upon which the rides are dependent – it was decided the rides would be offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

The rides will cost $200 a person, with hot air balloons being launched Friday night, Saturday morning and night and Sunday morning and night.

Riders must be at least 6 years old, and children must be accompanied by an adult.

With each of the balloons carrying up to four passengers, about 75 people will get to ride throughout the five ascensions if the weather cooperates, Kelly said. That’s about 15 people per launch.

Any cancellations due to weather will be announced on the festival’s Facebook page.

“We’ve had a ton of interest in the

Sept. 3

$200 rides, and then some who found out it was $200 and said, ‘That’s more than I want to spend,’ ” Kelly said.

“It’s actually a discounted rate. If you were to go to a commercial balloonist, you’d pay $250 to $300 for the same ride.”

The festival also will offer tethered rides at a cost of $20 a person. Tied down, the balloons basically will rise about 30 feet, then come back down to the ground.

Hosted by a Harvard Events Committee, the event will raise money for nonprofit groups in Harvard with the majority of its profits going to charity. The remaining money raised will be used to help host another festival next year.

As interest in the festival grew, so did the number of activities, with the event becoming one of only a few hot air balloon festivals to offer camping.

With 50 camp sites, both dry sites with no water and electricity – at a cost of $100 for three nights – and premium sites with water and electricity – at a cost of $200 for three nights – will be offered.

Festivalgoers are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets to enjoy all the attractions, including one

HARVARD HOT AIR BALLOON FEST WHEN: 4 to 9:30 p.m. Sept. 2; 6 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Sept. 3-4 WHERE: Milky Way Park, 300 Lawrence Road, Harvard COST & INFO: Admission to the festival is free. Visitors welcome to bring their own food and drink. Balloons will make ascensions on Friday evening, Saturday morning and evening and Sunday morning and evening, weather permitting.

Visit the website for ride ticket pricing.

Information: www.harvardballoonfest. of Kelly’s favorites – the night glows, in which all the ballons are tethered and lit up in a circle. Wristbands must be bought to use the inflatables – $20 a person – and the inflatables along with the “extreme rides,” such as the zipline, bungee and rock climbing wall – $25 a person.

Kelly’s hoping the fest will attract those with easy access on the Northwest Metra Line from Chicago to Harvard.

Parking will cost $5 a car, and a few local businesses are opening up their lots if parking fills up at Milky Way Park.

By LINDSEY BAHR The Associated Press

There is no misfortune too shattering for Derek Cianfrance it seems. The writer and director of “Blue Valentine,” “The Place Beyond the Pines” and now, an adaptation of the M.L. Stedman novel “The Light Between Oceans” confidently strides into stories of little hope and painful circumstance, using pretty actors and even prettier settings to create sweeping milieus of human devastation.

But where the dissolving marriage in “Blue Valentine” was so tangibly real that it felt as raw as a breakup, “The Light Between Oceans” crashes into the shores of its own strange story, pummeling the audience with Big Feelings that never quite cut through. Perhaps it’s because it follows the characters down a morally murky path of increasingly poor choices where only one is given any depth after the original sin.

But we’ll get to that later.

“The Light Between Oceans” starts out as a handsome love story in a handsome place, even if dread looms in the angry seas and winds enveloping this picturesque seaside town.

Tom Sherbourne (Michael Fassbender, looking rugged and war-weary) just has returned from service in World War I and takes a position as the caretaker of a lighthouse on a small island off the coast of Australia. He’s warned the last

“THE LIGHT BETWEEN OCEANS” STARRING: Michael Fassbender, Alicia Vikander, Rachel Weisz PLOT: A lighthouse keeper and his wife living off the coast of Western Australia raise a baby they rescue from an adrift rowboat.

RATED: PG-13 for thematic material and some sexual content RUNNING TIME: 2 hours, 12 minutes man in the job went a little crazy out there on his own, and everyone seems to think it’s just not a good idea to live on that island without a wife.

In any event, the stoic Tom finds a woman soon enough in Isabel (a luminous Alicia Vikander), who is forward and spirited enough to suggest a date with the shy newcomer. They fall fast and beautifully in love and take off for life on the island together, enraptured of one another in a newlywed daze.

Then Isabel starts to have problems carrying a child to term. She loses one early on, and then another quite a bit later in pregnancy. The second is the blow that threatens to destroy them, until they spot a rowboat drifting in the waters. Inside, there’s a dead man and a wailing infant girl. You know where this is going.

After one night with the child, Isabel is a goner. She’s fallen in love with this gift and, like a stubborn child, will not

let go despite Tom’s pleas (What about adoption? My professional obligation to log everything? The social contract to not steal babies?). But Tom, seeing the spark return to Isabel’s haunted eyes, reluctantly caves.

And they start raising the little one as their own, sinking deeper into the lie until Tom realizes the mother, Hannah (Rachel Weisz), lives heartbroken on the mainland. The human factor makes Tom’s moral compass spin, and it’s here that the story really starts to lose itself quite simply because the other half of this equation is reduced to a one-note cliché.

As a mother, Isabel is no longer an individual, a sexual being or even a supportive partner. She is just a gooey mess of motherly emotions and insanity. It’s a shame, too. How often is the devastation of multiple miscarriages and stillbirths, an experience so many women have, actually represented?

Once the child arrives, it’s no longer Isabel’s story. Tom gets to be the protector of his childlike wife and the martyr for their choices. By the third act, I’m certain we’re not supposed to be annoyed with everyone (actually, Isabel’s parents are OK).

“The Light Between Oceans” is stunning to see, and the performances are of the highest caliber, but it’s all packaged in a story that just doesn’t earn its stay, or our tears.

NORTHWEST HERALD with wire reports

Already planning a double feature of “Young Frankenstein” and “Blazing Saddles” this weekend as part of its Fall Throwback schedule, the McHenry Outdoor Theater will host a “Gene Wilder Tribute Weekend.”

The films – with “Young Frankenstein” being shown first – will play beginning at dusk Sept.

2 and 3 at the theater, 1510 N. Chapel Hill Road, McHenry.

Wilder, who died Sunday from complications of Alzheimer’s disease at age 83, Gene Wilder stars in both classics directed by Mel Brooks.

Originally labeled “Mel Brooks Weekend,” McHenry Outdoor Theater Owner Scott Dehn announced via the theater’s Facebook page he’d changed the name to “Gene Wilder Tribute Weekend” as a celebration of Wilder’s “wonderful life.”

“Thanks for the memories, Gene, and may you rest in peace,” Dehn said.

He further commented on the Facebook page the comedies are two of his

favorites.

“I’m heartbroken at Gene’s passing, but what a wonderful way to celebrate his gifts and talents this weekend,” he said.

With wild, Harpo-like hair, a melancholy face and a mad glint in his eye, Wilder was an earthquake of neuroses that tremored with blinks and sweat before cracking and quivering in hysteria.

“Young Frankenstein,” in which

Wilder plays Dr. Frankenstein, might be his greatest performance: a mad scientist with his own demons and an acute sensitivity to the pronunciation of “Frankenstein.” He and the monster, in tuxes, singing “Putting on the Ritz” might sum up Wilder, in all his bizarre glory, more than any other scene.

A screenwriter as well, Wilder cowrote “Young Frankenstein.”

He met Brooks through Anne

Bancroft, with whom he starred in the Brecht play “Mother Courage.” Their collaboration – 1974’s “Blazing Saddles” and “Young Frankenstein” and 1968’s “The Producer” – constitutes one of the great pairings in comedy.

After Wilder’s death was announced Monday, Brooks called him “one of the truly great talents of our time.”

“He blessed every film we did together with his special magic, and he blessed my life with his friendship,” Brooks said in a statement. “He will be so missed.”

Brooks would call him “God’s perfect prey, the victim in all of us.” But he also knew how to keep it cool as the gunslinger in “Blazing Saddles” or the charming candy man in “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.”

Lonergan-mania

Little is settled about this fall’s coming awards season except for this: Kenneth Lonergan’s “Manchester by the Sea” (Nov. 18) is one of the best films of the year. Already celebrated at its Sundance premiere, it’s the third film from the acclaimed New York playwright following the wonderful “You Can Count on Me” and the criminally underseen “Margaret.” Casey Affleck excels as a small-town New Englander haunted by tragedy.

Lonergan’s naturalistic touch and deft feel for the rhythms and details of life remain unmatched. –

see, this year’s fall film season looms like an oasis. It’s about to get better at the multiplex. Here are 10 movies, performances and storylines AP film writers Lindsey Bahr and Jake Coyle are most looking forward to come autumn.

Female directors to (re)discover

Jake Coyle

Ang Lee, Innovator

Ang Lee continually is pushing cinema to new technological heights, and his adaptation of “Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk” (Nov. 11) is no less ambitious than bringing a hyper realistic CG Bengal tiger to the frames of “Life of Pi.” The first screening will be in 4K, 3D and 120 frames per second – essentially, hyper reality. Oh, and he also manages to meld all that tech talk with some extremely resonant stories. Take us there, Mr. Lee. – Lindsey

nominees is lining up for this season. Though a rape case from the past is clouding the oncebright fortunes of Nate Parker’s “The Birth of a Nation,” a revamped Academy of Motion Pictures may be hard pressed to ignore the likes of Denzel Washington’s “Fences” (Dec. 16), Barry Jenkins’ “Moonlight” (Oct. 21), Theodore Melfi’s “Hidden Figures” (Dec. 25) and Jeff Nichols’ interracial marriage tale “Loving” (Nov. 4). –

While the percentage of female directors remains dismal, there are a number of exciting projects from new and veteran talents this fall, like the feature debuts of Julia Hart (“Miss Stevens,” Sept. 16) and Kelly Fremon Craig (“The Edge of Seventeen,” Nov. 18). Also coming are films from exciting veterans like Jocelyn Moorehouse (“The Dressmaker,” Sept. 23), Andrea Arnold (“American Honey,” Sept. 30) and Kelly Reichardt (“Certain Women,” Oct. 14). – Bahr

A legitimately good Shia LaBeouf

“The Birth of a Nation”

Performance-art theatrics have overshadowed the transformation Shia LaBeouf has undergone.

He’s made it easy to not take him seriously in recent years, and maybe that’s been the point. But in Andrea Arnold’s Midwest teenage odyssey, “American Honey” (Sept.

30), LaBeouf and breakout star Sasha Lane are exceptional. The film is your opportunity to 1) See why LaBeouf was sporting a rattail last year; 2) Watch him dance to Rihanna on a Walmart check-out counter; and 3) See the vibrant latest from one of the most interesting directors currently working. – Coyle

Emma Stone gets a proper showcase

How do you come off of a dud like “Aloha”? By singing, dancing and romancing your way back into America’s hearts in what could be a career-defining performance in Damien Chazelle’s musical love story “La La Land” (Dec. 16) of course. Stone stars as Mia, a struggling actress in Los Angeles who falls for a moody musician in the form of Ryan Gosling. Looking like “Singing in the Rain” meets “The Umbrellas of Cherbourg,” ‘’La La Land” – and Stone’s touching melodies and emotive almond eyes – promises to have audiences swooning and sobbing in no time.

Smarter spectacles

Even the blockbusters this fall look more enticing than the summer’s. There’s Denzel in glorious cowboy-hero mode in “The Magnificent Seven (Sept. 23), Peter Berg’s visceral true tale “Deepwater Horizon” (Sept. 30), the brainy smarts

“Rules Don’t Apply”

of Benedict Cumberbatch in “Doctor Strange” (Nov. 4), the mindbending sci-fi of Denis Villeneuve’s “Arrival” (Nov. 11) and the cozy fantasy of J.K. Rowling’s “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” (Nov. 18). Oh, and another little “Star Wars” film is coming: Gareth Edwards’ spinoff “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” (Dec. 16). – Coyle

Old Hollywood through Beatty’s lens

“La La Land”

The Golden Age of Hollywood holds a not-sosurprising allure for directors of a certain age, but perhaps none has seemed quite as suited to the task as Warren Beatty, coming off of a 15-year hiatus from acting and an 18-year break from directing with his long-time-coming “Rules Don’t Apply” (Nov. 23), once simply known as the Warren Beatty Howard Hughes pic. Beatty plays Hughes, but it looks to be more of a showcase for a youthful romance between an aspiring actress (Lily Collins) and her driver (young Han Solo himself, Alden Ehrenreich). – Bahr

“Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk”

Hailee Steinfeld grows up

Steinfeld was just 13 when she made her Oscar-nominated breakout in the Coen brothers “True Grit” in 2010. In Kelly Fremon Craig’s “The Edge of Seventeen” (Nov. 18) – a coming-of-age tale in the John Hughes tradition – her maturation is self-evident. As a whipsmart but confidence-lacking highschooler, Steinfeld navigates embarrassment after embarrassment with wit and spirit. – Coyle

“Doctor Strange”

The understated Mike Mills

Director Mike Mills takes his time between projects, but each is a lovely, whispered little cinematic event, from the tender “Thumbsucker” to the achingly poignant “Beginners.”

His latest, “20th Century Women” (Oct. 8) takes him back in time to 1979 Santa Barbara, where three women (Annette Bening, Greta Gerwig and Elle Fanning) explore what love and freedom means in their time. – Bahr

HOMES

Thursday, September 1, 2016 • Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

6 deck dos for creating your own deck escape (BPT) - No longer simply a rectangle attached to the back of your home, today’s decks are built in creative designs to make them an ideal place to relax and de-stress. These six simple ideas will allow you to use the workability of modern decking to achieve an outdoor living space that’s the perfect “deck-escape” for you.

beauty and gentle, flowing sound, water is uniquely soothing. Simply fill a wine barrel or pot with water and a few aquatic plants - and maybe some fish - for a signature piece on your deck. An affordable pump kit installed in one of these containers provides a fast and easy way to add the mystique of flowing water.

1. Show off some curves

3. Landscape for the perfect escape

For years, decks have been simple rectangular shapes built with traditional lumber, but with advances in decking products, more complicated designs are now possible. Now you can build decks in virtually any shape - from giant leaves to free-flowing curves. These decks lack the severity of sharp angles, and create a more casual feel perfect for relaxation. Many of these decks are built with high performance wood-plastic composite decking, which can be bent and shaped with simple heating.

Composite boards, like MoistureShield composite decking, are also easy to rip and route, which allows them to fit virtually any design and personalize your backyard retreat.

To create an ultra-inviting deck-escape, integrate landscaping into your design. This could be as simple as adding a few planters with fragrant flowers to soothe your senses, or as comprehensive as turning your deck into an extension of your garden by working your deck design specifically around trees or shrubs. With better workability than wood, modern materials like composite decking can be curved to seamlessly encircle a tree or frame a garden.

2. Add some H2-Oh! Whether it’s a simple bird bath or an elaborate fountain, adding a water feature to your deck is an ideal way to enhance its appeal. With its clear

4. Raise the curtain on elegant design Suspending fabric over your deck is a simple, low-cost way to create an inviting retreat space. Fabric can be hung in a straight line or draped from an overhead hoop, pergola or trellis to create a private canopy. Patterned fabrics showcase your personal taste and offer welcome shade, while sheer fabrics add elegance and provide a balance between privacy and preserv-

ing views.

5. Achieve off-the-wall creativity with a planted wall A fun and unusual way to create an open-air retreat is a wall of plants.

For decks attached to the house, hanging planters along the height and width of an adjacent wall creates a dramatic visual. Or, a simple freestanding wall along one of the deck’s edges can be built for hanging plants.

Choose leafy plants like elephant ears or ferns for a relaxing green backdrop, or add flowers for a pop of your favorite colors. You can even plant herbs for a tasty addition to your grilled recipes.

6. Get on board with a boardwalk For the ultimate escape from the everyday routine, build a low-lying

boardwalk that leads from your deck to a secret retreat hidden by hedges, shrubs or lattice screens. This retreat space does not have to be over-the-top. It can be as simple as a small platform deck with a comfortable chair or hammock. To create your boardwalk to paradise, look for composite decking brands that can be installed with ground and water contact. “High-performance composites won’t rot, crack or fail even when fully submerged,” says Brent Gwatney, senior vice president of MoistureShield composite decking. “Some composites are even made with up to 95 percent recycled content, so you can rest well knowing you’ve made an environmentally-friendly choice.”

North’s auction was unscientific, but could you and your partner have checked the club situation?

815-653-7095 ~ 815-341-7822 When the dummy came down, www.mailboxpostman.com declarer realized that he had to hold his club losers to one, which looked Northwest Herald Classified difficult with no useful spot-cards. It 877-264-2527 www.NWHerald.com/classified was unlikely that West had the king and queen, because he probably would have led the club king, not the heart jack. South hoped that East had a singleton or doubleton king or queen. (Yes, West might have had doubleton king-10 or queen-10, but South would have had to guess correctly if West unblocked his royal on the first round of the suit.)

Declarer cashed dummy’s spade ace and took his three red-suit winners. Then he played a club to dummy’s ace. No honor appeared, but South returned to his hand with a spade and led another club, covering West’s 10 with dummy’s jack. Yes, it lost to East’s king, but on his red-suit return, declarer sluffed his last club and ruffed on the board.
