Raising a stink about money I have always been fascinated by odor. You can’t see it coming. You can’t hear it in the distance. You can’t feel its touch. You just suddenly smell it. Odor is nature’s James Bond … an arrogant, sneaky, spy-like vapor that more often than not leaves one shaken, not stirred.

The science of odor adds more to its mystery.

To smell something, molecules from that thing have to physically get into your nose. These molecules actually evaporate from the object and float into the air. Your nose catches them and sends an electric signal to the brain, which interprets them as a specific smell. Thus, smelling technically occurs not in your nose but in your head. So here’s to thinking happy smells.

To better understand this process, think of smelling a football game: A quarterback (the thing) throws the ball (the odor molecule) into the air (the air) to be caught by the receiver (the nose), who runs it to the end zone (the brain), and a touchdown is scored (an odor is sensed).

Interestingly, although many Chicagoans will have great difficulty visualizing this analogy, residents of Green Bay will grasp it instantly.

So, now that we understand the nuts and bolts of odor, let’s get down to specifics. Recently, researchers conducted a study about the smell of money – that is, U.S. paper currency. It seems that we can duplicate every odor, from a new car to a Burger King Whopper, but no one has bottled the smell of money … until now.

An artist named Mike Bouchet had a vision of an exhibit he would call “Tender,” as in legal tender, i.e., money. His plan is to spray the smell of dollar bills into an empty art gallery.

Visitors would walk through it, smell the money and have some kind of artsy experience … kind of like viewing a Monet painting of the odor of water lilies.

To find his smell, Bouchet went to a chemist named Marc vom Ende, who was the senior perfumer for a German-based producer of flavors and fragrances. Ende was commissioned to reproduce the smell of U.S. greenbacks and wasted no time following the scent.

TODAY’S TALKER Fact check: Trump wrong that 2 killed in Chicago during Obama’s farewell speech

CHICAGO – President Donald Trump incorrectly claimed in a TV interview that two people were shot and killed in Chicago during then-President Barack Obama’s farewell speech.

Trump referenced Obama’s speech in an interview Wednesday with ABC News and said, “Two people were shot and killed during his speech.”

“They weren’t shot at the speech. But they were

WHERE IT’S AT

JUST HUMOR ME Michael Penkava He gathered new and used paper currency into an apparatus that absorbed the molecules of the elements that were being released into the air by the cash. Performing chemical tests on these molecules revealed more than 100 different smells wafting from the images of the Washingtons, Lincolns and Jacksons.

The chemist identified three main odors: soap, linen and a key smell from Chanel No. 5.

Now that actually sounds quite appealing, until Ende observed that when this combination of molecules accumulates in high quantities, it smells a lot like vomit, so it might not be a good idea to keep a wad of those presidents in your wallet.

The next key ingredient was ink, which is not surprising. But then came the smell of gasoline, which might explain why money always seems to burn a whole in our pockets.

Now things get a little bizarre. Traces of the odors of skin cells and body oils also were found on our money. I suppose that makes sense, but it’s unsettling nevertheless.

Finally, the scientist discovered traces of butter, cheese and hay. When I read that I thought there must be a bunch of rich dairy farmers running around with a lot of moolah. But then the study observed that these were elements commonly found in … gulp … fecal matter.

So, there you have it: Our money smells like a melting pot of soap, linen, vomit, gas, BO, poop and Chanel No. 5. Evidently having a bunch of money makes a lot of scents.

shot in the city of Chicago during his speech,” he added. The portion of the interview in which Trump made the remarks was not televised, but was included in a transcript that ABC posted online.

Chicago police records show no one was fatally shot in the city Jan. 10, the day of Obama’s speech.

There were five shootings, but none occurred while Obama was speaking.

Trump has criticized Chicago for its soaring violence, saying on Twitter this week that he would “send in the feds” if the city can’t “fix the horrible ‘carnage.’ ” – Wire report

Lawyers: Facebook Live defendants facing threats

4 accused of torturing mentally ill Crystal Lake teen

By JEFF ARNOLD

editorial@nwherald.com CHICAGO – Lawyers for the defendants charged with torturing a mentally ill Crystal Lake teen and broadcasting it on Facebook Live said Friday that their clients should be released from jail and that the defendants now are being threatened on social media.

The four – Jordan Hill, 18, Tesfaye Cooper, 18, and sisters Brittany Covington, 18, and Tanishia Covington, 24 – are being held without bond after the Jan. 3 attack in which they allegedly kidnapped and tortured the 18-year-old victim, who suffers from both schizophrenia and attention deficit disorder.

All four are scheduled to be arraigned at 9 a.m. Feb. 10.

The defendants were charged with aggravated kidnapping, aggravated unlawful restraint and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, as well as a pair of hate crimes – one because of the victim’s mental illness and one because of his race.

Cooper and Brittany Covington also face residential burglary charges, while Hill also faces charges of robbery and possession of a stolen motor vehicle.

After Friday morning’s hearing, Cook County Public Defender Amy Campanelli stood in front of a collection of colleagues who will be representing the four defendants.

Campanelli said that sensationalized and pervasive media coverage threatens to poison the jury pool for her clients, whom she said have been denounced in the media before anything has been proved.

Another attorney said death threats have been directed at the four as well as anyone who supports them.

“It is sad and unfortunate that many have commented on these young men and women without knowing all the facts,” Campanelli said.

She added: “Worse, these are young people who should not be held in jail, but are being held without bond because they have been pre-judged.”

This month, a Cook County judge ordered the four held without bond because the four defendants are “a danger to yourself and society.”

“It is sad and unfortunate that many have commented on these young men and women without knowing all the facts. Worse, these are young people who should not be held in jail, but are being held without bond because they have been pre-judged.”

Amy Campanelli

Cook County public defender But on Friday, Campanelli said her office will seek their release, which can’t happen until after the defendants are arraigned next month. Campanelli said she then will Jordan Hill file motions to reconsider bond.

She said she hopes her clients can receive a fair trial.

“I honor the responsibility to represent these four young people, (and) Tesfaye my office will do so zealCooper ously,” Campanelli said.

Judge Peggy Chiampas also said Friday that in addition to barring cameras in the courtroom, she would not permit sketch artists to produce images that display the faces Brittany of the four defendants or Covington their attorneys for upcoming preliminary hearings.

In making her ruling Thursday, Chiampas said she had to balance the defendants’ right to a fair and impartial trial with the public’s right to know what Tanishia was happening in the case.

Covington The judge initially ruled that sketch artists could not depict the defendants in jail clothing.

But in Friday’s hearing, Assistant Public Defender Neil Toppel argued that allowing images of the faces of the defendants and their attorneys could put not only the four in danger, but those representing them.

After Friday’s hearing, Toppel cited a social media posting that he said invited a good Samaritan to publicly execute

News sent to your phone Text the keyword NWHNEWS to 74574 to sign up for BREAKING news text alerts from the Northwest Herald. Message and data rates apply. the defendants and added that anyone who supports them should be executed as well.

“You can interpret that how you like,” Toppel said. “I take that very seriously. … To me, it sounds like someone put out a death warrant.”

Cooper, Hill and the Covington sisters are alleged to have tortured the victim for several hours. The four defendants allegedly slapped, cut, beat and mocked the victim, prosecutors have said. Footage from the video shows the assailants cutting the gagged victim’s scalp with a knife, punching him and forcing him to drink from a toilet.

The 30-minute Facebook Live video also included footage of one of the male defendants pulling a chord around the victim’s neck and holding him up while the victim is groaning in pain. A male voice is heard on the video saying, “I don’t give a f*** if he’s schizophrenic.”

Hill, who prosecutors said was a classmate of the victim at an alternative school, allegedly also threatened to kill the victim.

During the alleged attack, the victim – according to the state – was forced to say, “I love black people” and “F*** Trump,” as well as made to kiss the floor.

The victim finally escaped after neighbors, who called complaining about the noise coming from the apartment where the attack allegedly took place, called 911. That led to a confrontation between the defendants and the neighbors, which allowed the victim to flee before he was spotted by police.

Benefit to raise money for man battling rare cancer

WL man is Harvard graduate, volunteer coaches in Woodstock

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – In the past few years, Travis Walters has had three major surgeries removing his thyroid gland, jugular vein and a blood clot on his lung. Walters, of Wonder Lake, has been battling a rare form of thyroid cancer, which now is in stage 4.

His cancer has resulted in lost time at work, more travel expenses and pricey medical bills for him and his family. Travis Even though Walter’s Walters mother-in-law, Mary Klein, said he likes to keep his personal life private, some of his friends and family eventually heard about the situation and wanted to do something to help.

“He’s the type of person who wouldn’t talk about his illness to others, and he never whined about it or anything,” Klein said. “So someone eventually found out about it, spread the word, and that’s how a benefit came about.”

The Travis Walters Cancer Benefit will be March 5 at the McHenry Athletic Complex, 1310 Ridgefield Road, Crystal Lake. The benefit will include raffles, a silent auction, a pizza dinner and a basketball court open for entertainment. Tickets are $12 for adults and $10 for children ages 6 to 12. Both cash and checks will be accepted.

Walters, 41, grew up in Harvard and was a star athlete at Harvard High School, Klein said.

The name might be familiar to Woodstock residents, as Walters has been a volunteer coach for St. Mary’s football team, Woodstock Little League

baseball teams and other area sports teams.

“He’s always had a passion for sports,” Klein said. “And he’s so loved by the children, because he’s so good with them.”

Since Walters was diagnosed in 2012, he’s had to travel back and forth to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota because of his rare condition. His latest visit was for radiation treatment, and he is scheduled for another visit in March, said his wife, Rachel Walters.

“We’re just taking things day by day,” Rachel Walters said.

The Walters have two children, Ben, 8, and Brooklyn, 4.

“Travis is very hard-working; family is very important to him, he loves anything to do with sports, and (he) is overall a good person,” Rachel Walters said.

In addition to the benefit, a GoFundMe page was created Monday with the goal of raising $10,000 for Walters’ medical bills. So far, the campaign has raised more than $1,700.

For information about the benefit, call Klein at 262-215-4535.

Realists decide on best path for moving forward “The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.” – William Arthur Ward The start of a new year is a great time to take a moment to think through our goals and aspirations for the months ahead. As I was doing that myself for the McHenry County Economic Development Corp., I came across this quote from the “king of inspiration,” William Arthur Ward, and I was struck by how true this really is and how our attitudes and perceptions can form our outlook and affect how we lead our businesses.

Our attitude ultimately becomes the lens through which we view our world.

If we focus on the positive, then the world becomes tinted by the proverbial rose-colored glasses. If we choose to focus on the negative, then we will see the negative in everyone and everything around us. These images of the optimist and pessimist are nothing new and have been around a long time.

They are the traditional black and white of attitudes. But if there is one thing I have learned in life, it is that

MCEDC NEWS Pamela Cumpata life is a whole lot of gray.

Enter the realist.

One of our recent Business Champions was faced with the reality that he needed to broaden his outreach and find new markets for his products. This company adjusted its sails and forged ahead, creating its own new reality.

Another McHenry County company had the need to expand knowing full well that the reality of an expansion meant it would affect not only the company and its employees, but the community as well. This company was a realist, and unlike the pessimist, its leaders didn’t look at the inevitable ups and downs of life as a bad thing. They understood it for what it is – a fact of life and an opportunity.

They didn’t become immobilized by fear, slash budgets or wait for the sky to fall. They also didn’t dismiss the signs of change in their industry or the

economy with an optimistic “everything is fine” attitude. Instead, they did their research, analyzed their situations and decided on the best path for moving forward. And then they moved, full sail ahead.

We are fortunate here that we have many such business leaders from both large and small companies that call McHenry County home. They take action – expanding their footprint, innovating, providing training for employees and developing new products – which is what sets the realist apart from others.

Realists don’t wait for things to get better – they make them better. Realists are doers. They understand that it is up to them to find the path for their own success and help their people get there.

CEO Peer Group, which has just celebrated its first year. Members are from varied business sectors, and all are willing to dive in and take action.

This intensive leadership program is dedicated to helping CEOs grow their skills, broaden their horizons, help solve opportunities for growth and improve their bottom line. (For information on the group being formed now, visit http://www.mchenrycountyedc. com/about-us/ceo-peer-group.)

Realists also know that they can’t do it alone because, in the end, it isn’t just about them. It is about their business, their team and their employees. It is about looking beyond what is good for the month or the quarter and having the vision to see what will be good for the next two years, five years and down the road, and about biting a bullet for long-term growth.

team. We can help set a direction from which to sail, to line up partners who can address a need and provide resources as well as the support needed to reach a goal.

As we get further into 2017, I challenge you to reflect a moment on the words of William Arthur Ward. What kind of attitude do you have? Do you see your industry as shrinking, or do you actively look for new markets and new technologies that will help you move forward in ways you hadn’t thought about before?

Do you keep doing things the same way you always have and hope that everything will get better, or do you look for ways to improve yourself, your businesses and your community?

Do you stare at the glass and wonder whether it is half empty or half full, or do you go and look for more water?

How is your ship sailing?

Paddock also has been modeling since she was a little girl – she was named Miss Teen Illinois International 2014.

“For me, she’s my hero, and she’s an inspiration now to a lot of people,”

said Melissa Paddock, Camille’s mother.

The Huntley senior said she’s mainly choosing between two colleges for next year – the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and the University of Florida. Paddock said she still is unsure what she wants to study, but she is considering journalism and psychology.

others who are going through similar things. Now, Paddock has her own anti-bullying organization called “Cam’s Dare To Be Different.”

To further share her story, Paddock will give an opening address at the annual People in Need Forum in Crystal Lake, which connects people to community resources and provides important information to those in need.

The forum will be from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Saturday at McHenry County College, where Paddock and more than 20 other speakers will discuss various topics including homelessness, cyber safety and suicide prevention. Paddock’s topic will be “Dare to be Different,” with the intent of raising awareness about bullying and its devastating effects.

“People need to learn more about the power of words, and that words can affect people more than we really know,” Paddock said.

Since 2013, Paddock has gone to different area schools to share her story and spread awareness of her anti-bullying efforts.

“I think the most important part that I want people to take away is to just be kind to people and spread compassion,” Paddock said. “Bullying is a topic that not many people truly know

kcraver@shawmedia.com The League of Women Voters of McHenry County will hold candidate forums through February and March for seven local races in the April 4 election.

Forums will be held for candidates for Crystal Lake-based Community High School District 155 board; the Crystal Lake City Council; McHenry School District 15 board; McHenry Community High School District 156 board; McHenry mayor and Ward 1 alderman; and the McHenry County College Board of Trustees.

Two incumbents are seeking re-election, while the current board president and vice president are not.

The forum for both McHenry school districts starts at 7 p.m. March 1 at Parkland School, 1802 N. Ringwood Road.

Because of previous resignations, all but one of the seven seats on the District 15 board are up for election this year – four full four-year terms and two two-year unexpired terms. Seven candidates are running for the four-year terms, and four are running for the two-

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Good fortune is hovering nearby. Making investments, mixing the old with the new and reconnecting with people who have helped you succeed in the past will turn out well. This is a year of achievement, so don’t sit on the sidelines when you can share your feelings and get out and take part.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Let your emotions lead the way. If you feel strongly about something or someone, take action and reveal your intentions. Personal change will boost your morale.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Work quietly on the projects that interest you most. Finish what

you start before you share or present what you have to offer. Personal achievements are favored.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Nurture important relationships and do your best to help a friend or an organization in need. Your generosity and ability to bring about positive change will be appreciated.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – An opportunity will leave you wondering what to do next. Don’t give up your day job unless you have a better deal negotiated and in writing. It’s best to play it safe.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You need to put more effort and energy into getting things done on time. Organization and preparation will help you avoid a mishap. A former co-worker will

extend an invitation.

Get the go-ahead from someone who would be influenced by your decision before you say yes.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Think big, but monitor your spending and be reasonable. Change can

be a good thing if it doesn’t put you in debt. Do the work yourself and cut your costs.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – If you avoid meddling in other people’s affairs, you’ll sidestep a troublesome person. Personal gains will be yours if you focus on self-improvement and physical fitness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Make your home a place of entertainment. Host a party or move things around to accommodate a new project you want to start. An encounter with someone from your past will be enlightening.

A new look will put a spring in your step and draw attention from someone special. Romance is featured.

British actor and cast member John Hurt arrives Sept. 13, 2011, for the UK film premiere of “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy” at the BFI Southbank in London. The versatile actor died Friday in London after battling pancreatic cancer, said his agent, Charles McDonald. He was 77. to Christopher Walken for “The Deer Hunter”) and an uneasy humor to Kane in Ridley Scott’s “Alien,” immortalized by his disturbing death scene, which Mel Brooks later poked fun at with Hurt’s help in “Spaceballs.”

“It was terribly sad today to learn of John Hurt’s passing,” Mel Brooks wrote on Twitter. “He was a truly mag-

nificent talent.”

Hurt is unrecognizable in perhaps his most memorable role as the lead in David Lynch’s “The Elephant Man.” He endured eight hours in the makeup chair daily to transform into John Merrick. The elaborate mask prohibited him from sleeping lying down or even eating while it was on. His would eat his

Mike Connors, P.I. on ‘Mannix,’ dead at 91

Actor Mike Connors (right) appears with actor Dick Van Dyke on Jan. 15, 1997, during an episode of the TV show “Diagnosis Murder,” in Los Angeles. Connors, who played a hard-hitting private eye on the long-running TV series “Mannix,” has died at age 91.

His son-in-law, Mike Condon, said the actor died Thursday from recently diagnosed leukemia at a Los Angeles hospital.

LOS ANGELES – Mike Connors, who starred as a hard-hitting private eye on the long-running TV series “Mannix,” has died. He was 91.

The actor died surrounded by family Thursday afternoon at a Los Angeles hospital from complications of leukemia that had been diagnosed a week earlier, said his son-in-law, Mike Condon.

“Mannix” ran for eight years on CBS beginning in 1967. Viewers were intrigued by the tall, smartly dressed, well-spoken detective who could mix it up with the burliest of thugs and leap on the hood of a racing car to prevent an escape. Episodes normally climaxed with a brawl that left the culprits bruised and beaten.

“Up until Mannix, most private investigators were hard-nosed, cynical guys who lived in a seedy area and had no emotions,” Connors theorized in 1997. “Mannix got emotionally involved. He was not above being taken advantage of.”

In the first season, Joe Mannix was

a self-employed Los Angeles private investigator hired by a firm that used computers and high-tech equipment to uncover crime. The ratings were lukewarm. Connors feared the series would be canceled, but it was produced by Lucille Ball’s Desilu studio, and CBS was reluctant to antagonize its biggest star.

In the second season, Mannix opened his own office and fought lowlifes by himself. The ratings zoomed.

When “Mannix” was revised, the office acquired a secretary, played by black actress Gail Fisher.

The network was concerned that affiliates in the South might object to her character, but “there wasn’t any kind of backlash,” Connors recalled.

Another highlight was the theme music by legendary screen composer Lalo Schifrin.

Connors also starred in the TV series “Tightrope!” and “Today’s FBI.” Each lasted one season.

His movie and TV career stretched from the 1950s to 2007, when he had a guest role on “Two and a Half Men.” Connors made his film debut in 1952’s “Sudden Fear,” which starred Joan Crawford. Other films included

“Island in the Sky,” “The Ten Commandments,” and a remake of “Stagecoach.”

Connors, born Krekor Ohanian in 1925, was from an Armenian community in Fresno. He served in the Army Air Forces during World War II and played basketball at the University of California, Los Angeles.

After graduation he studied law for two years, but his good looks and imposing presence attracted him to acting. In an era when film actors were given names such as Tab and Rock, he appeared as Touch Connors – “Touch” being his basketball nickname. He later changed it to Michael and finally, Mike.

Connors and his wife, Mary Lou, were married in 1949 and had two children: a son, Matthew, and a daughter, Dana. Their son, beset by hallucinations starting in his teens, was diagnosed with schizophrenia and before his death lived in a small residential care facility. Connors and his wife championed efforts to erase the stigma of mental illness.

In addition to his wife, daughter and son-in-law, Connors is survived by a granddaughter, Cooper Wills.

LOS ANGELES – The versatile actor Sir John Hurt, who could move audiences to tears in “The Elephant Man,” terrify them in “Alien,” and spoof that very same scene in “Spaceballs,” has died. He was 77.

Hurt, who battled pancreatic cancer, died Friday in London according to his agent Charles McDonald.

Twice nominated for an Oscar for playing the tortured John Merrick in David Lynch’s “The Elephant Man” and for his role as the heroin addict Max in “Midnight Express,” Hurt’s career spanned more than 50 years. After minor television and film appearances, his breakout came in 1966 as Richard Rich in Fred Zinnemann’s “A Man For All Seasons,” followed by his portrayal of Caligula in the BBC miniseries “I, Claudius” in 1976.

The wiry Hurt brought gravitas to Alan Parker’s 1978 film “Midnight Express,” for which he received a supporting actor Oscar nomination (he lost

last meal midmorning as the mask was being applied – usually raw eggs mixed in orange juice – and not again until after midnight.

“To be quite honest, the film was misery to make because of the physical problems, so if it’s working I’m jumping for joy,” Hurt said in a 1980 interview.

Hurt scored a lead actor Oscar nomination for the role, but lost out to Robert De Niro’s performance in “Raging Bull.”

Hurt was also a prolific voice actor, appearing as Hazel in the animated “Watership Down,” and as Aragorn in Ralph Bakshi’s “The Lord of the Rings.”

He also voiced The Horned King in “The Black Cauldron” and provided the narration for “Dogville.”

In the “Harry Potter” films, Hurt played the wand-maker Mr. Ollivander.

In recent years, he appeared in notable fare such as “Melancholia,” “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy,” “Only Lovers Left Alive” and “Snowpiercer.”

“We’re all just passing time, and occupy our chair very briefly,” Hurt said in a 2015 interview while undergoing treatments for the early stage cancer.

Rauner criticizes request to halt workers’ pay

By JOHN O’CONNOR

Illinois Attorney Gen. Lisa Madigan speaks at a news conference Aug. 21, 2014, in Chicago.

Madigan filed a motion to stop state workers’ pay until legislators and Gov. Bruce Rauner approve a spending plan.

The Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan’s request that a judge bar the state from paying 63,000 government employees to get feuding Republicans and Democrats to move on a budget deal was decried Friday by GOP Gov. Bruce Rauner, who claimed the Democrat is attempting to “cause a crisis” and shut down the government.

Madigan filed the motion Thursday in St. Clair County, a staunch working-class Illinois suburb of St. Louis where a judge nearly two years ago ordered that withholding paychecks, even without a budget, would violate the state Constitution’s requirement that contractual agreements be honored.

She wants the court to set a Feb. 28 deadline, giving Rauner and Democrats who control the Legislature “additional time to enact appropriations” before the comptroller stops cutting checks.

Madigan’s move could halt $400 million a month in payroll to state workers, forcing major parts of state government to temporarily close. With no budget since July 2015, it’s the longest a state has gone without spending authority since at least World War II. “We won’t abandon the prisons

Chicago police chief says he needs kidney transplant

CHICAGO – Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson disclosed after a public dizzy spell on Friday that he has battled a kidney condition for more than three decades and is on a waiting list for a transplant. Johnson said his dizziness at a news conference announcing a crime initiative was because of taking blood pressure medication on an empty stomach.

He was taken to a suburban Chicago hospital for several hours of evaluation and later released.

“For 32 years I’ve been treating a kidney condition that hasn’t interfered with my ability to lead a normal life or be your police superintendent,” he said at a news conference later in the day. “I don’t require dialysis nor do I have diabetes.”

and the state police won’t park their cars, but most of state government will grind to a halt,” said Springfield political scientist Kent Redfield.

Rauner criticized the attorney general. Lisa Madigan is the daughter of powerful House Speaker Michael Madigan, the Chicago Democrat whom

Rauner has held up as emblematic of problems he wants to fix.

“I hope this is not a direct attempt to cause a crisis to force a shutdown of the government ... as a step to force a tax hike without any changes to our broken system,” Rauner told reporters Friday in Chicago.

Johnson said that once a donor is found and the operation takes place he should be back to work after three to five weeks. Johnson said that he informed Emanuel of his kidney condition before he was appointed superintendent in March.

The Evanston City Council in December unanimously approved a measure strengthening the suburb’s sanctuary city status. This week Chicago’s City Council also voted for a resolution reaffirming Chicago’s sanctuary city status.

Mayor: Evanston still has ‘sanctuary city’ status

EVANSTON – Evanston’s mayor is reinforcing that the Chicago suburb is a safe place for immigrants after President Donald Trump’s issued an executive order affecting sanctuary cities.

The Chicago Tribune reported that Mayor Elizabeth Tisdahl’s statement this week said she is “troubled” by Trump’s order and Evanston “will continue to work to welcome all people.”

Trump’s executive order would cut some federal funding from immigrant-protecting municipalities.

The sanctuary cities label is something cities and other public entities have sought to offer local protections to immigrants living in the U.S. illegally. It

O’Hare flights drop in 2016; Atlanta busiest airport again

CHICAGO – The Federal Aviation Administration reported that O’Hare International Airport in Chicago was the nation’s second busiest in 2016. Flights at O’Hare dropped 1 percent.

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport saw a jump in flights of 2 percent compared with 2015. It had just fewer than 900,000 arrivals and departures compared with O’Hare’s 868,000.

Los Angeles International Airport took over the third spot in 2016 from the field in Dallas-Fort Worth. Denver’s was fifth for a second straight year.

Midway International Airport on Chicago’s South Side was 25th busiest for

The first-term Republican governor campaigned on smaller government and often impugned state workers. But he became their biggest ally in 2015 when their paychecks were threatened and a work stoppage would have evaporated his leverage. Rauner wants to tie a balanced budget to restructuring the business climate to boost commerce, curtail union influence and curb politicians’ power.

Rauner noted that the Senate continues negotiating a bipartisan budget plan to break the deadlock. Leaders promised a January vote which didn’t materialize, but pledged to try again next month.

A government shutdown would appear to favor Democrats who want to tackle the shortfall with tax increases, spending cuts – and no Rauner policy changes, said Nick Kachiroubas, a DePaul University political scientist.

But played shrewdly, Rauner could reject a tax increase, weather the shortterm pain of a possible shutdown, and still recover, with help of his personal wealth, in time for the 2018 governor’s race, he said.

American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31 spokesman Anders Lindall said the union was “shocked and extremely disappointed” by the filing.

Blagojevich’s daughter criticizes Obama

CHICAGO – A daughter of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich is criticizing former President Barack Obama for not granting early release to her father, who’s serving prison time for corruption.

In an emotional letter, 20-year-old Amy Blagojevich called Obama “spineless” for not commuting her father’s sentence.

Blagojevich’s wife, Patti, posted the letter on her Facebook page.

Blagojevich is in the fourth year of a 14year sentence on corruption convictions, including for trying to sell Obama’s U.S. Senate seat after he became president.

The ex-governor petitioned Obama for a commutation, and both Amy and her sister wrote letters asking Obama to act.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Austria shuts doors to non-Muslim Iranians

VIENNA – Austria has shut its door to about 300 non-Muslim Iranians hoping to use the country as a way station before establishing new homes in the U.S., The Associated Press has learned. The action is an early ripple effect of U.S. President Donald Trump’s effort to clamp down on refugee admissions.

Under a 27-year-old program originally approved by Congress to help Jews in the former Soviet Union, Austria had been serving until recently as a conduit for Iranian Jews, Christians and Baha’i, who were at risk in their home country and eligible to resettle in the U.S. Iran has banned the Baha’i religion, which was founded in 1844 by a Persian nobleman considered a prophet by followers.

U.S. officials had been interviewing the candidates in Austria because they cannot do so in Iran. But the U.S. suspended the so-called “Iranian Lautenberg Program” in recent days, according to Austrian officials.

By JILL LAWLESS and DARLENE SUPERVILLE The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Theresa May appeared chummy as they faced a curious world together for the first time Friday, pledging allegiance to the special relationship between their countries while trying to mask stark differences on some major issues.

It was Trump’s first White House meeting with a foreign head of state, a hastily arranged confab held precisely one week after the businessman and reality TV star, who remains a largely unknown figure to European audiences, was sworn into office as president.

Trump sought to charm May from the outset, showing her the bust of Prime Minister Winston Churchill that he’s using to decorate the Oval Office. He then opened a joint news conference by noting that his late mother was born in “Stornoway, which is serious Scotland.” Scotland is part of Great Britain.

Trump and May were seen briefly holding hands as they walked along the White House colonnade after leaving the Oval Office. Their talks continued in the State Dining Room over lunch of iceberg wedge salad, braised beef short ribs with potato puree and salted caramel crème brulee.

For her part, May congratulated Trump on his “stunning election victory,” and announced that he had accepted the queen’s invitation for a state visit with his wife, first lady Melania Trump, later this year.

But the attempts at mutual flattery didn’t completely mask the leaders’ differences over some issues, including NATO and Russia.

May tried to push Trump toward positions she supports, noting that he had assured her

he was “100 percent” behind NATO, a world body he has dismissed as “obsolete.” Trump did not contradict May as they stood together and answered journalists’ questions in the White House East Room.

May also took a tougher stance on sanctions against Russia.

When asked how close the U.S. is to lifting penalties that were imposed on Russia after its incursion into Ukraine, Trump said it was “very early to be talking about that.” May said sanctions should remain until a 2015 cease-fire agreement for Ukraine is fully implemented.

Trump has been less critical of Russia and its leader, President Vladimir Putin, than his predecessor and some lawmakers, including fellow Republicans. He has cast doubt on findings by U.S. intelligence officials that Russia interfered in the presidential election to help him win the White House, and has praised Putin’s leadership. Trump’s stance has fueled speculation that he could ease or remove the sanctions against Russia.

Trump also reiterated his belief that torture works. Britain takes a vocal stand against it.

The appearance alongside May was more amiable than Trump’s most recent public appearance with a foreign leader: a joint news conference with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto in August. Trump was more staid and serious then, and read from lengthy prepared remarks.

Coincidentally, Trump and May met a day after Pena Nieto canceled his own trip to Washington next week amid disagreement with Trump over which of their countries will pay for the wall Trump wants to build along the U.S.-Mexico border. Trump said Mexico will pay; Mexico said it won’t.

Anti-abortion groups hold triumphant rally

By BEN NUCKOLS

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The politically ascendant anti-abortion movement gathered Friday for a triumphant rally on the National Mall, rejoicing at the end of an eight-year presidency that participants said was dismissive of their views.

Vice President Mike Pence told the crowd at the March for Life that anti-abortion policies were a top priority of the new administration, and President Donald Trump tweeted that the rally had his “full support.”

The March for Life is held every year in Washington to mark the anniversary of the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion.

While no official crowd estimates were available, the turnout was clearly larger than in recent years, when abortion opponents had less political clout. Many thousands huddled in the shadow of the Washington Monument and stood in long lines outside security checkpoints made necessary by Pence’s appearance.

“We’ve come to a historic moment in the cause for life,” said Pence, the first vice president to address the rally.

“Life is winning in America.”

Pence said ending taxpayer-funded abortion and choosing a Supreme Court justice in the mold of the late Antonin Scalia – a conservative Catholic who opposed abortion – are among the administration’s most important goals.

One of Trump’s first acts after taking office a week ago was to sign an execu-

Anti-abortion demonstrators arrive Friday for the March for Life on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. The march, held each year in Washington, marked the anniversary of the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion. tive order banning U.S. aid to foreign groups that provide abortions. Pence said more such actions would follow.

A budget provision known as the Hyde Amendment already bans federal funding for Medicaid coverage of most abortions. Conservatives would like to see the rule made into a permanent law.

Majority Republicans in the House and Senate would also like to end federal funding for Planned Parenthood, which provided more than a third of the nation’s abortions in 2014. They also hope to ban most abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Trump has

pledged to sign both measures if they reach his desk.

Many people at the march said they were encouraged by the early days of the Trump administration, even if they did not support him initially or disagreed with him on other issues.

Trump “was elected because of people who did not have a voice before.

This past administration did not listen to us and did not even care,” said Glenn Miller, 60, a cabinet maker from Coventry, Connecticut, who was attending the march for the fourth time. “I wouldn’t say that I was a supporter of

Donald Trump. I voted for him because I didn’t think I had a choice.”

Other participants said they felt the march was important this year because their voices were not represented at last week’s Women’s March on Washington, an anti-Trump demonstration that drew massive crowds in Washington and cities around the country.

The women’s march included support for abortion rights in its mission statement and dropped an anti-abortion group as a partner.

Joi Hulecki, 63, a nurse practitioner from Orlando, Florida, said abortion-rights supporters wrongly portray the decision to terminate a pregnancy as empowering for women, when in fact women often feel pressured to have abortions and regret it later.

“We don’t want to judge them. We want to help them,” she said. “We consider ourselves pro-women, too.”

The annual event was never expected to attract a crowd on the scale of the women’s march, which brought more than half a million people to Washington. Organizers said in their permit application that they expected 50,000 people, although they hoped for more.

“There’s been a lot of talk about numbers this past week,” said Jeanne Mancini, president of the March for Life. “It’s hard to add up so many numbers after 44 years because there have been a lot of us.”

Mancini added that the most important number for marchers was 58 million, an estimate for the number of abortions performed in the U.S. since 1973.

Poll: Americans worried about potential health care loss

By RICARDO ALONSO–ZALDIVAR and EMILY SWANSON The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Although “Obamacare” still divides Americans, a majority worry that many will lose coverage if the 2010 law is repealed in the nation’s long-running political standoff over health care.

A new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that 56 percent of U.S. adults are “extremely” or “very” concerned that many will lose health insurance if the health overhaul is repealed.

That includes more than 8 in 10 Democrats, nearly half of independents, and more than 1 in 5 Republicans. Another 45 percent of Republicans say they’re “somewhat” concerned.

“No one should go without health care for even a day,” said Wendy Narug of DeMotte, Indiana, a small

town south of Gary. A political independent who leans Republican, Narug works caring for people with disabilities. She favors repealing the Obama health law, but not until Congress and President Donald Trump have a replacement ready.

Released Friday, the poll serves as a reality check for Republicans as they try to find a path to repealing and replacing former President Barack Obama’s signature legislation. It found that even as few Americans want to keep the health law in its current form, many provisions enjoy broad popularity. The exception: the law’s requirement that most Americans carry health insurance or face fines.

“They should come up with something that’s a little easier and more affordable for everyone,” Narug said.

“Some people have to pay hundreds of dollars just to go to their doctors.”

The health law offers subsidized

private insurance for those who don’t have job-based coverage, along with a state option to expand Medicaid for low-income people. About 20 million people have gained coverage since it passed. Employer coverage has also increased, but experts credit the law for the vast majority of the gains. About 28 million people remain uninsured.

Trump has said he wants to replace “Obamacare” with a plan that provides insurance for everybody and lowers deductibles. But his pick for health secretary recently cast doubt on the notion that a Trump administration replacement is ready to go. Questions remained after Trump attended the GOP congressional retreat in Philadelphia this week.

Overall, Americans remain divided, with 53 percent wanting to keep the law in some form, and 46 percent favoring its repeal.

Most of those who favor repeal say

that should happen only when a replacement is ready. And most of those who want to keep the law say changes are needed. Among those who favor keeping it, only 1 in 4 think it should remain unchanged.

“If the Affordable Care Act was affordable, I would have no problems with it,” said Kevin Wollersheim, a delivery truck driver from the Minneapolis suburb of Hopkins. “Costs were supposed to go down, or at least not go up at such a high rate.”

Wollersheim is uninsured and expects he’ll have to pay about $200 in fines at tax time for failing to comply with the law’s coverage requirement.

He said he didn’t even bother to look this year because premiums on Minnesota’s individual insurance market jumped by 50 percent and more.

That coverage requirement – known as the individual mandate – is a top target for Trump and GOP lawmakers.

Progress in Missouri city’s policing policies faces much scrutiny

Maria Martinez of Detroit holds onto an American flag Thursday during a Michigan United news conference at its Detroit headquarters, which called for protection of immigrant and Muslim community members after comments and actions made by President Donald Trump.

By RACHEL ZOLL

The Associated Press Four days after President Donald Trump was inaugurated, mental health counselors hosted a webinar on how their fellow American Muslims could cope. They surveyed the political landscape: a White House framing Islam itself as a threat, a surge in anti-Muslim hostility and suspicion of immigrants in general.

The counselors offered tips such as limiting time on social media. And they cautioned against withdrawing in discouragement, worried about losing whatever foothold Muslims have gained in public life since the crucible of Sept. 11.

“It’s very easy to tell a story of victimization, fear, feeling ... not welcome in our own home,” said Ben Herzig, a Massachusetts therapist with a specialty in Muslim mental health. “But the narrative of Islam in American can be a positive one.”

While many express alarm at Trump’s statements, Muslim leaders are pushing back. They are organizing protests, hosting elected officials at their mosques, building ties with other faith groups and encouraging Muslims to run for elected office. Many of these initiatives had been planned before the general election, but have taken on a new urgency since then.

Trump signed an executive order Friday setting “new vetting measures” to keep “radical Islamic terrorists” out of the United States. The order was expected to indefinitely stop Syrian refugee entry into the U.S. and suspend

issuing visas for people from other majority-Muslim countries. The new president and his supporters insist his measures are needed to strengthen national security.

Meanwhile, a Texas state lawmaker recently sent a provocative survey to local Muslim leaders asking, among other things, their views of Islamic law and whether they would pledge not to harm Muslims who left the faith. On Wednesday, a businessman attacked a Muslim airline employee at New York’s Kennedy Airport, kicking her, shouting obscenities at her and saying that Trump “will get rid of all of you,” authorities said.

“The discourse has shifted from good Muslims and bad Muslims to, ‘How bad is the Muslim you’re talking about?’ ” said attorney Hassan Ahmad, an immigration law specialist in Virginia with many clients from Muslim countries.

Muslim leaders acknowledge they are in a relatively weak position from which to advocate, amid the nation’s inflamed mood over immigration, religion and terrorism.

The U.S. is home to only about 3.3 million Muslims, which means just a small number of Americans actually know a member of the faith. Many U.S. Muslims come from families that only arrived a generation ago. But they have more organizations, charities and cultural clout than ever, built by a post-9/11 generation eager to assert their American identity.

Companies such as Amazon, Nabisco and CoverGirl recently have featured Muslims in their advertisements.

U.S. Muslims feel mix of despair and resolve

FERGUSON, Mo. – Ferguson officials have missed critical deadlines in the early stages of an agreement with the Justice Department, but the beleaguered Missouri town’s city manager said the process is now moving “in the right direction.”

Clark Ervin, a Washington lawyer monitoring the consent decree involving the St. Louis suburb that has been under Justice Department scrutiny since the fatal 2014 police shooting of Michael Brown, told The Associated Press this week that Ferguson has missed the 120- and 180-day deadlines in crafting new policies and procedures on basic policing practices.

The missed deadlines underscore the challenges police departments can face complying with the sweeping overhauls mandated by the Justice Department, particularly when the troubles are as deeply rooted as in Ferguson. The progress in Ferguson will be under particular scrutiny given how the city emerged as a flashpoint in the national debate over race and police use of force, and because of the city’s initial resistance last year to signing a federal agreement that local officials feared would be too costly.

“While a number of deadlines have been missed, and deadlines are important, that does not mean that the city is not working hard both in terms of police reform and court reform,” said Ervin, who is responsible for ensuring the city’s compliance with the agreement.

He said the city was working in “good faith” toward meeting the procedures required by the federal government.

“This is difficult work,” Ervin said. “Needless to say, there’s a lot to be done, but progress is being made.”

City Manager De’Carlon Seewood acknowledged that U.S. District Judge Catherine Perry, at a status hearing last month, felt the city was behind.

But Seewood said the judge “also recognized we are further ahead than a lot of other places with similar consent decrees.”

“It’s moving and I think we’re moving in the right direction and I see a positive outcome,” Seewood said.

Ervin said one problem early on was that the city did not have a des-

ignated employee focused specifically on the consent decree. The city hired Frank McCall, formerly the police chief in neighboring Berkeley, Missouri, in October as a police commander tasked with shepherding the agreement. Ervin, Seewood and Justice Department attorneys are confident that will help expedite the process.

Ervin noted that the city had recently passed an ordinance to set up a civilian review board to handle allegations of police misconduct. Some revised policies, including on the duty to report use of force, have already been judged to comply with the consent decree. Others, including on accountability, are in the process of being reviewed.

The shooting of Brown, 18, who was black and unarmed by white officer Darren Wilson on Aug. 9, 2014, resulted in an examination of Ferguson’s criminal justice system that led to a March 2015 Justice Department report citing racial bias. Perry signed off an agreement between the city and the Justice Department in April that called for significant changes in police and court procedures.

Wilson resigned in November 2014, although a St. Louis County grand jury and the Justice Department found no evidence that he committed a crime.

The city’s agreement with the Justice Department, expected to cost about $2.3 million over three years, requires diversity training for officers, body cameras for police and jail workers, dashboard cameras for squad cars, establishment of a civilian police oversight board, municipal court reforms and other changes.

The agreement spelled out a series of deadlines for compliance, including that the city within 120 days develop a process for investigating use of force incidents and provide crisis intervention training within 180 days to call-takers, dispatchers and their supervisors.

A key provision requires community policing, which relies on officers getting involved in neighborhood groups, meeting with people, and generally being pro-active, rather than simply responding to crime. But the city hasn’t been able to fully implement community policing because the Ferguson Police Department is so short-staffed: Nearly one-third of the 49 police jobs are vacant.

As a result, Seewood said the city has re-prioritized its goals to put police recruitment – with a special focus of bringing in more minority officers – at the top of the list.

OUR VIEW

Heroes who save lives Thumbs up: To Lake County Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit Deputy Jonathan Levin, who was recently honored for his life-saving actions during a Fox Lake crash this past July. Levin used his own vehicle to block traffic and protect the victims before pulling two motorcyclists away from a fire and administering first aid. One of the motorcyclists survived because of Levin’s efforts. “Deputy Levin’s actions were brave and heroic,” Undersheriff Ray Rose said. “They went above and beyond the call of duty, which resulted in a life being saved.”

Thumbs up: To Bob Hudgins, the location manager for Columbia Pictures who was instrumental in bringing “Groundhog Day” to Woodstock. Hudgins has returned to the city each year to lead walking tours of some of the film’s most memorable sites and share behind-the-scenes stories during the annual festival that was inspired by the movie. This will be Hudgins’ last year at Woodstock’s Groundhog Days.

“To have a town like Woodstock actually invite us back just to be a part of the day… I feel very lucky I’ve had that in my life,” he said. We wish him well in his retirement, and thank him for helping to keep the magic of the movie alive in Woodstock.

Thumbs up: To the McHenry County State’s Attor-

ney’s Office for expanding its first offender program to now include misdemeanor offenses. The program, designed for nonviolent first-time offenders, offers those who qualify a chance to appear before a panel of residents who are informed of the offense. The panel recommends requirements for the offender that must be completed within a certain period of time. These tasks could include restitution to the victim, writing a letter of apology, performing community service, obtaining a high school diploma or undergoing counseling. Once the offender completes the requirements, the case is dismissed. If they are not completed successfully, the case is returned to the courts to be prosecuted. The program previously was available only to first-time felony offenders.

Thumbs down: To homelessness, but thumbs up to those in McHenry County who help those who are homeless. For the 16th consecutive year, the McHenry County Continuum of Care to End Homelessness participated this week in the National Street and Shelter Point-in-Time Count. Over a 24-hour time period, volunteers count homeless individuals on the street and in shelters. During the 2016 McHenry County survey, 195 homeless people were counted on the street and in shelters, and the number hovered near the low 200s in the six years before that, according to survey records.

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Aid-in-dying services dilemma

In November, Coloradans approved, by a margin of nearly 2 to 1, a measure that allows terminally ill patients to request a prescription they can self-ingest to bring about a peaceful death.

Since then, health care organizations have opted not to provide aid-in-dying services.

The measure allows physicians, nurses and pharmacists to opt out of participation. Health care organizations can prohibit the practice on their premises, a major issue in communities where one system owns most physician practices. Although the law specifically states that health systems can’t prohibit physician employees from writing prescriptions for life-ending medications to be taken off-site, that provision is being challenged by religiously affiliated hospitals.

Providers cite various reasons for not wanting to participate.

Some oppose assisted suicide as inconsistent with their religious and moral values. Others are concerned with fraud, coercion

and the potential to be embroiled in lawsuits. Some just want more time to figure out how the provision of aid-in-dying counseling and prescriptions might work before they decide whether to offer such services.

Openly acting to cause death is a change for professionals and organizations whose mission has been to heal, although there are many steps along the continuum between prolonging life and hastening death.

Many Coloradans can envision a time when they might want this service; many medical professionals are reluctant to provide it. So what will give?

One possibility is that an industry will arise similar to the one created by the medical marijuana law: physicians who have no previous relationship with these patients will rubber-stamp requests and provide prescriptions for a hefty price. That’s far from optimal, but it would provide patients with access to aid in dying.

Two scenarios are more attractive, both with structures more in line with what the creators of the law envisioned. One is that organizations will be created specifically for this purpose; the other is that hospices and similar providers will offer such assistance. Neither is as helpful as an ongoing, long-term relationship with a physician whom a patient trusts to provide truthful information and honest guidance about end-of-life choices. Either would be far better than nothing for terminally ill individuals who experience agonizing pain and no hope for improvement.

Right now, proponents are developing websites and hotlines to provide information and support to physicians and pharmacists, and to connect patients with providers who will provide aid-indying services. That may be the best that can be done while Colorado works through the issues involved in openly aiding those who want to end their lives.

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

VIEWS Austin Berg to Moody’s.

These findings underscore a tale of two states. While the greater Chicago area has added more than 110,000 jobs since the bottom of the Great Recession, the rest of the state has lost nearly 43,000 jobs.

This is not to say Chicago is some gleaming city on a hill. It has deep financial problems that evoke comparison with Detroit. Vast swaths of the city are stuck in cycles of violence, joblessness and poverty. And property taxes in surrounding communities, especially the south suburbs, have risen to near-confiscatory levels.

It’s not a sustainable state of affairs. There will be more pain in the Windy City.

But it’s already arrived downstate.

The January release of December 2016 jobs data offered another window into that pain. Illinois’ unemployment rate increased, and remains the highest in the Midwest. It would be even higher if thousands of people weren’t giving up on looking for work altogether.

These numbers also reveal what too many families already know: Manufacturing is collapsing in Illinois. The state lost 11,000 manufacturing jobs in 2016. No other sector

suffered more.

For some perspective, that’s comparable to losing every manufacturing job in Decatur. Or every manufacturing job in Springfield and Champaign combined.

If this trend continues, by the end of 2017 Illinois will have no more manufacturing jobs than it did during the worst months of the Great Recession.

In other states, this would provoke uproar from the Statehouse. Lawmakers might look to surrounding governments for success stories, and try to replicate them with strong policy changes.

So what have Illinois lawmakers done to address the jobs and manufacturing crises?

Let’s review.

In 2011, months after passing a massive income tax hike, they passed a workers’ compensation reform bill.

It took Illinois’ system from the most expensive in the Midwest and made it … still the most expensive in the Midwest, but by a slightly smaller margin, according to annual studies from the state of Oregon.

Five years passed and lawmakers did practically nothing. In fact, the most beneficial economic stimulus actually came from doing nothing: allowing the 2011 tax hikes to partially expire.

Illinoisans now find themselves amid talk of yet another massive income tax hike with meek attempts

at reform.

These include small changes to the workers’ comp system. The Technology and Manufacturers Association of Illinois dismissed these changes as “minor,” and certainly not worth a multibillion-dollar tax hike.

Also included, in exchange for a permanent income tax hike, is a temporary two-year property tax freeze.

The freeze includes no provisions to protect local residents from other tax and fee hikes, barely any relief from expensive state mandates for local governments, and no protections from massive property tax hikes in 2019 and beyond.

Illinois has tried this approach before. And here we are. Large communities have fallen into recession, and the state’s industrial backbone is splintering.

Isn’t it time we listened to the employers who can’t afford to do business here? The families who can’t afford to stay in their homes? The Illinoisans who can’t afford not to leave the state?

Maybe another statewide recession would knock some sense into the lawmakers who kill real change at every turn. But don’t count on it.

IT’S YOUR WRITE ‘Wise use’ Republicans

To the Editor: If things go as they hope, we are about to see “wise use.”

Republicans of western states launch a blitzkrieg on our cherished public lands. To understand “wise use,” just think of the Bundy’s. But it’s big players like the Koch brothers who have funded the election of “wise users” to state legislatures, governorships and Congress.

“Wise use” Rep. Rob Bishop of Utah now chairs the House Natural Resources Committee. Senator Lisa Murkowski is the equivalent in the Senate. Bishop and Murkowski’s major campaign contributors have been the oil and gas sector.

Bishop has made many legislative attempts to give the oil and gas industry greater access to public lands, and to

even turn control of public lands over to the states.

His state is even initiating a lawsuit against the federal government to take control of public lands. It’s one of many reasons Republicans refused hearings for Barack Obama’s appointment. Both Utah senators are on the Senate Judiciary Committee that refused.

Now they have a Republican in the White House, and a real estate developer at that. The least populated states have the most public lands.

But that’s why they can’t afford to manage them. That means they will be more likely to sell them to private interests like the Koches for quick cash.

“This land is your land, this land is my land.” Maybe not much longer if “wise use” Republicans have their way. And it could be over before most

Illinois is not working.

Since the end of the Great Recession, most members of the Illinois General Assembly have taken one of two approaches to this throbbing reality. The first is to close their eyes, plug their ears and babble. The second is to make things worse.

Now, this political aversion to growth is coming home to roost.

Some areas of the state are so economically weak that they’ve descended into recession, according to research from Moody’s Investors Service released earlier this month.

Moody’s named Bloomington, Carbondale, Peoria and the Quad Cities as the four Illinois metro areas in a recession, according to the group’s business cycle tracker. The tracker takes into account employment, factory output, home building and house prices.

Two of these areas are home to Illinois universities, which are now struggling to pay bills after years of reckless spending. It would be easy to blame problems with the local economy on the state of the state. But neither Bloomington’s Illinois State University nor Carbondale’s Southern Illinois University campuses have seen the sorts of colossal layoffs or steep enrollment decline that could bring about a full-blown recession.

Four more Illinois metros – Elgin, Danville, Decatur and Kankakee – are at risk of undoing their recoveries from the Great Recession, according

California clears hurdle for cancer warning label on Roundup

By SCOTT SMITH

The Associated Press FRESNO, Calif. – California can require Monsanto to label its popular weed-killer Roundup as a possible cancer threat despite an insistence from the chemical giant that it poses no risk to people, a judge tentatively ruled Friday.

California would be the first state to order such labeling if it carries out the proposal.

Monsanto had sued the nation’s leading agricultural state, saying California officials illegally based their decision for carrying the warnings on an international health organization based in France.

Monsanto attorney Trenton Norris argued in court Friday that the labels would have immediate financial consequences for the company. He said many consumers would see the labels and stop buying Roundup.

“It will absolutely be used in ways that will harm Monsanto,” he said.

After the hearing, the firm said in a statement that it will challenge the tentative ruling.

Critics take issue with Roundup’s main ingredient, glyphosate, which has no color or smell. Monsanto introduced it in 1974 as an effective way of killing weeds while leaving crops and plants intact.

It’s sold in more than 160 countries, and farmers in California use it on 250 types of crops.

The chemical is not restricted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which says it has “low toxicity” and rec-

Containers of Roundup, a weed killer, is seen on a shelf Thursday with other products for sale at a hardware store in Los Angeles. A battle over the main ingredient in Roundup, the popular weed killer sprayed by farmers and home gardeners worldwide, is coming to a head in California, where officials want to be the first to label the chemical, glyphosate, with warnings that it could cause cancer. Chemical giant Monsanto has sued the nation’s leading agricultural producer, saying state officials illegally based their decision for warning labels on an international health organization. ommends people avoid entering a field for 12 hours after it has been applied.

But the International Agency for Research on Cancer, a Lyon, Francebased branch of the U.N. World Health Organization, classified the chemical as a “probable human carcinogen.”

Shortly afterward, the most populat-

ed U.S. state took its first step in 2015 to require the warning labels.

St. Louis-based Monsanto contends that California is delegating its authority to an unelected foreign body with no accountability to U.S. or state officials in violation of the California Constitution.

Attorneys for California consider the International Agency for Research on Cancer the “gold standard” for identifying carcinogens, and they rely on its findings along with several states, the federal government and other countries, court papers said.

Fresno County Superior Court Judge Kristi Kapetan still must issue a formal decision, which she said would come soon.

California regulators are waiting for the formal ruling before moving forward with the warnings, said Sam Delson, a spokesman for the state Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment.

Once a chemical is added to a list of probable carcinogens, the manufacturer has a year before it must attach the label, he said.

Teri McCall believes a warning would have saved her husband, Jack, who toted a backpack of Roundup for more than 30 years to spray weeds on their 20-acre avocado and apple farm.

He died of cancer in late 2015.

“I just don’t think my husband would have taken that risk if he had known,” said Teri McCall, one of dozens nationwide who are suing Monsanto, claiming the chemical gave them or a loved one cancer.

But farmer Paul Betancourt, who has been using Roundup for more than three decades on his almond and cotton crops, said he does not know anyone who has gotten sick from it.

“You’ve got to treat it with a level of respect, like anything else,” he said.

“Gasoline will cause cancer if you bathe in the stuff.”

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Colin Leis issued the temporary restraining order after Patton also accused the singer of physically abusing her during their marriage, which ended in March 2015. She also said the “Blurred Lines” singer has traumatized her and her son by demanding visitation and refusing to leave her mother’s home last week.

Grammys, CBS to honor Bee Gees with tribute concert LOS ANGELES – The Recording Academy and CBS will pay tribute to the Bee Gees two days after the Grammys with a concert featuring a range of artists, including Celine Dion, Andra Day, John Legend and Keith Urban.

The show, “Stayin’ Alive: A Grammy Salute to the Music of the Bee Gees,” will mark the 40th anniversary of the pop legend’s soundtrack to “Saturday Night Fever,” according to a joint announcement released Friday.

Barry Gibb, the sole surviving member and co-founder of the Grammy-winning group who released a solo album late last year, will perform a selection of hits from the soundtrack, which won a Grammy for album of the year for 1978.

The concert will be taped Feb. 14 at the Microsoft Theater, to be broadcast on CBS later this year.

Little Big Town, Nick Jonas, Tori Kelly, Demi Lovato and Pentatonix are among others to perform, with additions expected.

The Bee Gees “helped make ‘Saturday Night Fever’ an emblem of 1970s pop culture,” said Neil Portnow, president and CEO of The Recording Academy. “With expert harmonies, undeniable groove and a personal charisma matching their on-stage persona, the iconic band of brothers defined not just a genre, but a generation.”

Tickets for the show start at $25. Details are available at Axs.com.

The show is similar to joint tribute concerts with AEG Ehrlich Ventures honoring Stevie Wonder, The Beatles and Frank Sinatra.

Tackling snow removal

New tools take the backache out of scraping cars, clearing driveways

By SARAH WOLFE

T

The Associated Press

hat familiar refrain of winter is back. Do you hear it?

Metal shovels scraping snow-covered driveways and sidewalks. The industrious whir of snow blowers. The grating sound of scrapers chiseling cars out from beneath layers of ice.

Snow and ice removal can be back-breaking work. But a host of new tools aims to take the backache out of what can be the bane of many home and car owners’ existence each winter.

“We all get caught like this,” Home Depot spokesman Dan White said. “We know it’s coming, but we wait until the last minute to get ready. . . . If you’ve already got some of these things installed, they’re going to save you a lot of headaches.”

Snow-melting cables

Among the game-changing products in snow removal are cable kits that melt the white stuff off your roof, driveway or sidewalk.

EasyHeat Sno Melter cables can be clipped to your roof, or strung through rebar and layered under hard surfaces like cement and asphalt to maintain a constant temperature above freezing.

“There’s no need to shovel, snow blow or spread chemicals,” EasyHeat product manager Romy Sheynis said.

The roof cables provide an uninterrupted path for melting water to flow down into your gutters. Sidewalk kits cover areas up to 100 square feet with a single cable and must be installed by a professional contractor. A self-contained controller starts heating the surface whenever moisture is present and temperatures are below 38 degrees, according to EasyHeat.

Snow mats that melt snow as it falls on your steps and sidewalk also are becoming popular, using similar technology, White said.

High-tech snow blowers

Cordless snow blowers are nothing new. But Snow Joe and Ryobi offer blowers that are both cordless and don’t need gas – a more environmentally friendly way to clear your sidewalk or driveway.

The snow blowers are powered by a rechargeable lithium battery. After charging for 2½ to 3 hours, they can

run up to 40 minutes.

“Until now, homeowners faced a lot of intimidation with snow-removal equipment,” said Joseph Cohen, Snow Joe’s CEO. Battery-powered blowers, he said, “operate just as most electronics do today – with a simple charge.”

Looking for something more traditional?

Milwaukee-based Briggs & Stratton has introduced a serrated auger on its single-stage snow blowers this season.

Called the “SnowShredder,” it combines 14 serrated steel teeth with the reinforced rubber paddles typically found in single-stage blowers to give users the power of a two-stage blower and the maneuverability of a smaller machine.

The new feature is available on the 922EXD and 1222EE models of Snapper, Simplicity and Briggs & Stratton single-stage snow blowers.

AP photos

In this undated photo provided by HARO, a man uses a Snow Joe snow broom with an ice scraper on the windshield of a car covered in snow. The tool easily can push heavy, wet snow off a car hood or can be used on a roof without scraping the paint. The handle extends up to 49 inches, giving the user maximum reach without back strain.

EasyHeat Sno Melter cables can either be attached via clips to your roof or strung through rebar and layered under hard surfaces like cement and asphalt to maintain a constant temperature above freezing. ABOVE: A sidewalk with snow that is melted by snow removal cables.

Scrapers

Scraping snow and ice from your car is unpleasant enough, but in the dark? It can be hard and even dangerous.

Enter the Icy Light, a snow scraper with a water-resistant flashlight in the handle. The brainchild of Washington state inventor Jeff Latham, Icy Light is powered by two AA batteries and comes in several colors.

Sharper Image carries a heated scraper that melts away stubborn ice and snow after charging for a couple minutes in your car’s 12-volt outlet. A built-in rubber squeegee wipes away

any excess water, leaving you with a clear view. It also contains a light.

Looking for something bigger?

Snow Joe offers a snow broom with ice scraper that easily pushes heavy, wet snow off your car hood or roof without scraping the paint. The handle extends up to 49 inches.

And in something that looks straight out of the Middle Ages, Bare Ground has an ice- and snow-melting torch that lets you blast away frozen spots with a propane-powered flame.

Bonus? According to the listing on Wayfair, it’s also great for weed removal in the summer.

He and his family worked elbow-to-elbow with us in the evenings and on weekends. Whenever we encountered a roadblock, he took it as a challenge and thought of a solution. This spring will be the start of our third year. It’s going to get even better.

What is your background, and how did you get started gardening?

When I was 9, my family moved from Rockford to South Carolina and my parents became enthralled with all of the plants they had never seen before. We went on many garden tours and hikes, and I learned along with my parents. It became a family hobby. Of course, when I moved back to Illinois as an adult, my knowledge of southern gardening didn’t help me much. Trial and error and, finally, the Master Gardener organization is updating my education.

What’s in your garden? Tell us a bit about it.

My garden started with sentimental family hand-me-downs such as rhubarb, plantaginea, peonies and rose of sharon.

I have a mix of sun and shade so I have a montage from veggies and roses, hostas and pulmonaria to pots and baskets everywhere as accents. Since I see my garden as my personal playground it never would be eligible for a public garden walk.

I don’t feel I really know a plant until I’ve grown it so that leads to my breaking the golden rule of only planting in multiples of threes and fives. I like to dabble and experiment. Gardening is a relaxing and creative hobby I am thankful to be able to pursue.

What motivated you to become a Master Gardener? What projects do you volunteer for within the organization?

Anita McDermott, who is a Master Gardener, kept telling me I should join and I finally couldn’t resist. My boss let me take vacation time every Friday for eight weeks so I could take the course.

My problem is not having enough hours in the day to sample all of the activities available to me as a member of the University of Illinois McHenry County Master Gardener Extension. I have worked

The benefits of six meals a day Dear Doctors: I’ve been hearing eating six small meals a day instead of three large ones is better for your health and even helps with weight loss. When I try it, though, I wind up feeling hungry all day.

Are six meals really better than three?

Dear Reader: Your question arises from recent news reports, but it has been debated for centuries in one form or another.

From the ancient Romans, who believed a single meal a day was the path to good health, to a Canadian study in the 1980s that touted the benefits of a “nibbling diet” of 17 snacks per day, the question of meal frequency has long been a topic of great fascination.

The premise behind eating smaller and more frequent meals is the control of blood sugar, also called blood glucose.

This refers to glucose, a type of sugar that is extracted from the food we eat. When digestion is complete, glucose is carried by the bloodstream and throughout the body to supply our cells and organs with energy.

When blood glucose levels drop, hunger and cravings spike. By eating six small meals a day, the thinking goes, you’re ensuring blood glucose is available at all times. By controlling the trigger for cravings, you’ll eat less and won’t be as likely to give in to the siren song of that bag of chips or chocolate bar.

But does it work?

While the logic is solid, results have been mixed. Participants in a study who ate six small meals showed no metabolic advantage over those who ate three large meals. What did separate them from the three-meal group was they reported higher levels of hunger and an increased desire to eat.

Another study found eating smaller

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Elizabeth Ko and Eve Glazier meals more frequently throughout the day had little effect on fasting glucose levels. However, it did conclude waiting until the end of the day to eat the majority of calories had a detrimental effect on blood glucose control.

In fact, intriguing data from recent studies supports the idea intermittent fasting is beneficial. The shift in the way the body metabolizes food after a weekly fast as brief as 16 hours was found to have measurable health benefits.

As research continues and we add to the body of knowledge regarding meal frequency, we can fall back on what we know for sure – what you eat can play a significant role in maintaining good health. It’s the total calories consumed and the nutritional quality of those calories that matter.

However many meals a day you decide to eat, be sure to limit your calories to a healthy level. Processed foods, refined sugars and sugary soft drinks are empty and even dangerous calories, so steer clear.

Lean proteins, vegetables (specifically, leafy greens) and fresh fruit are the building blocks of a healthful diet. And we know you’ve heard it before, but we’ll say it again: For the best chance at ongoing good health, remember to exercise.

• Eve Glazier, M.D., MBA, is an internist and assistant professor of medicine at UCLA Health. Elizabeth Ko, M.D., is an internist and primary care physician at UCLA Health.

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

C I N E M A

ex-boyfriend still feels the need to prove to himself he’s attractive to women, which makes him no prize. You were right to apologize to “everyone.” (I hope the first apology was to your girlfriend.)

There is an unwritten rule you’re not supposed to date your friends’ exes, and frankly, this is the reason for it. I can’t stop your classmates’ judgment of you, and neither can you. But you can hold your head high and tell them you have learned a lesson.

Dear Abby: I am on a self-imposed strict diet to try to curb my weight. Often when my spouse and I are invited to a couple’s house, I will ask what they are serving and let them know about my diet. Is this rude? Would it be more rude to say nothing and eat beforehand?

I have fallen into the pitfalls of overeating, and I’m afraid if I let myself splurge for even one night it could spiral. It has happened before. The last time was at a party where all they had was pizza. When I politely declined, the host joked “I was too good for their food.”

Was I wrong? – Staying Strong In Tennessee Dear Staying Strong: It’s not rude to bring the fact you are watching your weight to your host’s attention when you are invited.

A considerate host should ask the guest if there are any food allergies, restrictions, etc.

If that doesn’t happen, it’s all right to inform the host if there are foods you need to avoid.

If guests prefer to lessen the temptation to pig out by eating before going to a party, that’s fine too.

P.S. As to that pizza party – were you warned in advance what kind of party it was? If not, your host was extremely rude to call attention to the fact you weren’t eating and to ridicule you by “joking” about it. Now that’s tacky.

DEAR ABBY One of my girlfriends Jeanne is dating my Phillips ex-boyfriend.

They just had a kid, and he started flirting with me. I’m not in a relationship, so I flirted back. Now I’m getting bullied nonstop because people say I’m gonna break them up. But shouldn’t they be mad at him more than me?

Why is everyone jumping down my throat? I didn’t do anything with him. It was just words. Either way, he’s the one in the relationship. He shouldn’t have done it in the first place, and yes, I admit it was wrong on my part, too. But not as wrong, right?

I need help, because I go to a small school, and everyone here wants to jump me now.

It’s hard to concentrate on work with mean comments getting shouted out at me. I’ve said my “sorry’s” to everyone. Even though it’s none of their business. – He’s Wrong,

Mattress and Box Spring, King Size Lea Michele, an actress and singer, said, “I always knew that I wanted to work, and I knew I wanted to be a singer and an actor. I knew that every choice I made would help me get to that point. So the better the choices I made, the more of a chance I would have to get to where I wanted to be.”

That has been our theme this week. In this last example, how should South play in seven spades after West leads the heart queen?

What are his choices?

In the auction, I strongly agree with North’s three-club response, which showed at least a five-card suit and eight or more points. South’s final bid was a slight gamble because if North had the club ace and king, South did not know where the diamond queen would go. Still, the grand slam rated to be at worst on the diamond finesse.

With 12 top tricks, declarer can make his contract if either the diamond finesse works or the clubs break 4-4. So, after taking the first trick, South should play a trump to dummy’s seven, ruff a low club with the spade jack, cross back to dummy with a trump to the eight, ruff a second low club high and draw East’s last trump by leading the spade nine to dummy’s 10. Now declarer cashes the club ace and king, discarding his two low diamonds.

Are the clubs 4-4? If so, South throws his diamond queen on the club seven. If not, he takes the diamond finesse. Altogether, the odds of success are an acceptable 66.36 percent.

joestevenson@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Crystal Lake Central center Alex Timmerman read the play perfectly and jumped into the passing lane, deflecting the ball to teammate Adam Wittenberg.

Wittenberg grabbed the ball and tossed it back to Timmerman in the frontcourt, who then hit Evan Cassell, who found C.J. Lerum for an open layup and a five-point lead.

Central was poised for a Fox Valley Conference road victory with 50 seconds remaining, but nothing has been easy for the Tigers regarding fourth quarters.

Neither was this one.

“Huntley did everything they needed to do to win that game,” Tigers coach Rich Czeslawski said. “And we, uh, tried to let a close one get away from us.”

Wittenberg, who had made all five of his free-throw attempts, missed a 1-and1 with 17 seconds remaining, but Central defended well enough to force a Huntley timeout. Then, it defended well enough for the last 5.5 seconds, and when Chris Costantino’s 3-point attempt fell short at the buzzer, the Tigers raised their arms in joy – and some relief – with a 46-45 boys basketball win Friday night.

“It’s really nice, we’ve been working hard in practice all year and we’ve been really close all year,” said Timmerman, who led all players with 15 points and 10 rebounds. “So it’s really nice to get a close game. Hopefully, there’ll be more.”

Central (6-13 overall, 2-7 FVC) has been in a lot of games in the fourth quarter and usually come up short.

“We gave up a ton of offensive rebounds, we missed a lot of easy passes, a lot of easy box-outs, a lot of easy shots,” Czeslawski said. “Those are things that keep you from winning those games, and somehow we got lucky that Huntley’s shot didn’t fall at the end.”

Lerum, a sophomore who has assumed a larger role with senior Adam Pump lost to a knee injury, scored all 13 of his points in the second half, hitting three 3-pointers. Lerum was 0 of 5 in the first half, but 5 of 8 in the second.

“My teammates really pushed me and said, ‘Just keep shooting,’ because they know the kind of shooter I am,” Lerum

Central did not trail after Wittenberg opened the fourth with a 3. Timmerman’s steal in the last minute and the ensuing layup by Lerum made it 4641, but Huntley (5-14, 3-6) was not done.

Chris Costantino, who led the Raiders with nine points, hit a pair of free throws with 42 seconds remaining.

Matt Seng hit two with 28 seconds to go.

Huntley then got the rebound after Wittenberg’s free-throw miss and had trouble getting into its offense. Raiders coach Will Benson called timeout.

“We tried to get it so we could get up there and they couldn’t set up their defense, and we weren’t getting anything,” Benson said. “We still had 5.5 (seconds), which was fine. We did not shoot the ball well all game. We battled hard enough to win; we defended well enough to win; we just didn’t close the deal at the end. We just have to make a couple shots here and there.”

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE q UNSUNG HERO Collin Freund

Crystal Lake South, sr., G

Freund scored four points and came up with one of the game’s biggest rebounds late to help the Tigers hold off Huntley. The Red Raiders had three shots, and Freund, the shortest Tiger at 5-foot-8, eventually ended that possession by grabbing a rebound in the crowd.

Huntley had tricks up its sleeve all night, sending its entire team out to the prematch captains’ meeting with officials. decision. Spencer lost a 3-2 decision to Central’s Austin Ernd, which negated some of the move’s effect, then Petersen pinned Armijo, but Loprieno beat Central’s Eddie Diaz by major decision.

A pin by David Ferrante at 152 and a decision by Juan Quiroz gave Huntley a 17-9 lead.

“I think we came in here with the mentality that we knew we were going to win, but we knew there were going to be some tough matches, and guys needed to come out and pull through,” Stenger said. “We had a plan, bumping

the guys, it may not have worked the best, but we wrestled tough. Just happy with what came out of it.”

The most important stretch for Huntley might have been the upper weights, where Central was stronger and ran off a few consecutive wins, but the Red Raiders minimized the damage.

At 170, Central’s Braden Bisram came from behind to beat Spencer Machen, but only by decision. Central’s Liam O’Donnell beat Justin Allen at 182, but he couldn’t get more than the decision, either. Two ranked Tigers wrestlers earned only six points total against two unranked Huntley opponents.

“These are young kids and they wrestled tough tonight,” Bertelsman said. “It’s funny because I think that was more deflating than their losses, is when they couldn’t get their big points.”

Still, a third Tigers win in a row had the hosts leading with five bouts to go.

Central’s Seamus O’Donnell pinned Michael Jernigan with seven seconds left in the 195-pound match, putting the Tigers up 21-17.

Huntley grabbed the lead back with a decision at 220 by Justin Padyhag and late pin by Christian Benitez at 285, putting the Red Raiders ahead, 26-21.

Knowing that Huntley had stronger wrestlers left in the final three classes, Lehr pulled back his 106 and 113 pounders, forfeiting the bouts and effectively waiving the white flag. Huntley’s Jim-

my Pellegrino capped the victory with a major decision at 120.

“It was just awesome, something that we’ve really worked for,” Stenger said.

“We’ve been in and out throughout the year. ... It’s been kind of up and down, and it’s finally looking like it’s coming together. It’s really exciting, first in history to do it in 17 years of the program, everybody was pretty excited about it.”

It was the first team dual conference title in program history for Huntley (169, 8-0 FVC) after winning its first conference tournament last year.

“We didn’t even get our name on the wall for the tournament,” Bertelsman said. “I go ‘[Darn] it, now I’m getting my name on the wall. Finally the wrestling team will have a wall thing.’ It was nice. I knew if we wrestled our best, the points would be there.”

For the Tigers (14-5, 7-1), it was their first conference loss in more than a year.

“We thought if we could get pins at those upper weights, you give us an extra 10 to 12 points all of a sudden it’s pretty close,” Lehr said. “It is what it is.

I told our kids at practice yesterday, I said, ‘Guys, conference championship is cool, but it’s another practice for us, and at the end of the day our season’s not over tonight.’ Luckily, we have that.

We have regionals coming up. Hopefully, we can do some things in regionals and do some things as a team.”

Gavin Markgraff has been the spark plug for the Warriors all season, and after going scoreless in the first quarter, he hit his second shot attempt of the second quarter. Markgraff followed with nine consecutive makes and finished with 22 points to help McHenry pull away.

“Toward the end of the second quarter, we started hitting some shots and were able to keep it going after halftime,” Markgraff said. “We’ve kind of been under the radar all season, and a game like this just shows how well we can play as a team when we put it all together.”

McHenry (12-9, 7-2 FVC) couldn’t have shot the ball much better in the second and third quarters. The Warriors hit 8 of 11 shots in the second quarter and followed that with 9-of-10 shooting in the third quarter. Maki Mohr added 22 points for McHenry,

while Matthew Mohr, Patrick Breisch and Brian March each added six.

Paddock said the way his Warriors defended helped ignite the offense.

“We came out in that second half with a lot of energy and really played well,” Paddock said. “For us, it all starts on defense, and we did a nice job defending tonight. We had some good individual performances, including Gavin, who has been on fire for us lately and was able to keep that going tonight. This was a really good team effort tonight.”

South (8-12, 4-5) had a tough time keeping up with the Warriors’ hot shooting. Blake Kuffel hit two 3-pointers in the second quarter to keep the Gators close, but as a team, South shot 30 percent on the night. Kuffel and Matthew Meyers led South with 10 points each, and Kyle Leva finished with eight points and five rebounds.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The Fox Valley Conference wrestling season had been building toward Friday night at the Crystal Lake Central fieldhouse all along.

Huntley and Central established themselves as the area’s top two teams, each going undefeated through their first seven conference duals. They also knew how evenly matched they were, finishing within four points of one another at a recent tournament.

Huntley coach BJ Bertelsman came in with a plan to try to tip the dual meet in his team’s favor, and it ended up working, as the Red Raiders won, 42-21, to win the conference championship.

“I thought maybe if I can squeeze down their chances,” Bertelsman said.

Huntley shifted its lineup early, bumping Josh Stenger up to 126 pounds, Zach Spencer to 132, Joey Armijo to 138 and Luke Loprieno to 145. The move helped Loprieno, one of Huntley’s better wrestlers, avoid Central’s defending state champion, Lenny Petersen.

As well as the two know each other, it wasn’t much of a surprise to Central.

“We knew they were going to bump up. That was the smart thing to do.

They did what they should have,” Central coach Justen Lehr said.

Stenger started the dual with a major

4 GOLF: EVANS SCHOLARSHIP WINNER

Hard work pays off for Jacobs senior Lohman Meza 15th caddie from Crystal Lake C.C. to be Evans Scholar

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com Patricia Lohman Meza’s golf knowledge was extremely limited when she started caddying three years ago.

Lohman Meza had no idea about the finer points of caddying, but she is smart and a fast learner.

She also probably knew little about the Chick Evans Scholarship, which is awarded each year to college-bound caddies from the Western Golf Association.

Fortunately, her stepfather, Tom Rodman, knew plenty about the opportunities for Evans Scholars.

Lohman Meza, now a senior at Jacobs, landed a caddying job at Crystal Lake Country Club, worked hard to hone her craft and learned last month that she had earned an Evans Scholarship.

“I was ecstatic,” she said. “My parents handed me a very big envelope. It was like a very big dream come true opening it. I had an earlier interview. I was thinking it was starting to go in my direction. Actually getting the letter was amazing.”

Lohman Meza is the 15th caddie from CLCC to earn an Evans Scholarship in the past 14 years. Evans recipients are selected for their academics and activities in school, as well as their caddying performances. They receive a full tuition and live in dormitories with other Evans’ winners. Lohman Meza has a 3.98 GPA Patricia and scored 29 on the Lohman Meza ACT. In 2014, after finishing her freshman year, Rodman suggested that Lohman Meza try caddying at CLCC. “I didn’t think that much about it because I didn’t know anything about golf or caddying,” she said. “My first year, I caddied as much as I could. I wasn’t the best, but over the next two years after that I really pushed myself to get involved as much as I could, get as many loops as I could and that’s when it really became a possibility for me to obtain the Evans Scholarship. I’ve been working really hard to get as many hours and

loops as I could.”

CLCC president Cliff Jackson has trained caddies for the club for almost 18 years. He saw something with Lohman Meza right away.

“I always make it a challenge to see if I can pick, not only a caddie who gets the job, but a caddie that’s going to be great,” Jackson said. “The very first day, you could tell she was really smart. We throw a lot at them to see whose eyes glaze over. She just got it from Day 1. I always tell them, ‘I’ll teach you how to caddie. What I can’t teach you is hustle.’ If you’ve got that, you can become a great caddie. She had it in spades from the get-go. It took her one day of training to get the basics. By Day 3, it was like she’d been doing it forever.”

Lohman Meza runs cross country and track for Jacobs and plans on majoring in chemical engineering. She takes advanced placement classes in chemistry and calculus, is in two honor societies and is captain of Jacobs’ debate team.

She has been accepted at Illinois, Purdue and Wisconsin, all Evans’ schools.

She is waiting to hear from Northwest-

ern. At the moment, she is leaning toward Wisconsin.

“Going to any of them would be wonderful,” she said.

Lohman Meza will work at CLCC again this spring and summer and thanks the members for helping her, especially Jackson, who often sought her out for weekend rounds.

“Basically, all the loops I did with him were practice,” she said. “I got better and better, and that put me up there as caddie. I really enjoyed caddying with him, and it was a wonderful opportunity.”

Jackson was pleased he could help Lohman Meza further her caddying career.

“We have our caddies rated as B’s, A’s and Honors,” Jackson said. “You have to get 20 excellent reviews per player before you can move up a class and get more pay per round. If I see somebody who’s going to be really good, I try to take them as often as I can to get them those 20 rounds. I always made sure I’d get her for rounds because I knew she was going to be a star.”

GIRLS BASKETBALL: DUNDEE-CROWN 40, McHENRY 29

Streaking Chargers earn 5th consecutive win

By ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com CARPENTERSVILLE – DundeeCrown’s defense did its job against McHenry in the first quarter, but the offense lagged behind.

Starting in the second, the Chargers ran a crisper offense with all five players touching the ball, scoring 15 points and taking a four-point lead into the break.

In the third, they continued to put the pressure on McHenry.

Anna Kieltyka and Allison Michalski each had a steal at midcourt and a layup to kick start the third, and the Chargers ran away with a 40-29 Fox Valley Conference girls basketball victory Friday.

D-C, winner of five straight, improves to 14-11 overall and 8-5 in the FVC – becoming one of two teams (Hampshire, 8-3) with eight wins in conference.

“We didn’t have any rhythm offensively early,” Chargers coach Sarah Miller said. “We were getting stops, but we just couldn’t finish.

“At half, we talked about reversing the ball more, finding gaps, getting the

I thought our defense, holding them to 29 points, gave us easier shots because we had lots of steals and turnovers.”

Paige Gieseke led the Chargers with 13 points on 6-of-10 shooting, scoring eight of her 13 in the second half – and six in the fourth. The 6-foot senior guard added five rebounds and two assists.

The Chargers led 18-14 at halftime, and started the second half on a 9-0 run.

Between the second and third quarters, D-C scored 12 straight points. Anna Kieltyka ended the half with a 3.

“We’ve definitely kind of worked out all the kinks that we’ve been struggling with,” Gieseke said. “At this point, it’s just about finding the open girls and capitalizing on offensive looks.”

Kieltyka (10 points, two 3-pointers) was assigned to McHenry shooting guard Isabel Gscheidle, and junior Maddie Tripp defended forward Liz Alsot.

Both held their assignments to nine points apiece.

Tripp added five points and six rebounds, and helped give the Chargers their biggest lead, 27-14, with a basket with 3:45 left in the third, capping their 9-0 run to start the half. They led by 13 points again in the fourth quarter with 6:41 to go after a steal by Michalski and a

pair of free throws by Gieseke.

“We knew if we didn’t hold up that lead, McHenry was going to come back in it, and we definitely didn’t want that,” Gieseke said. “My team definitely helped me find the open gaps, so I can get wide open layups. Things are looking up for us now, and we’re just trying to keep it consistent and keep it going the way things are.”

After shooting 1 of 9 in the first quarter, D-C made 15 of 30 shots. The Chargers finished 16 of 39 (41 percent), while holding the Warriors (14-9, 7-5) to 9 of 32 (28.1 percent) for the game.

McHenry had 22 turnovers to D-C’s 16.

“You’re not going to win any games scoring 29 points on the road,” McHenry coach Rob Niemic said. “That’s just not going to happen. Defensively, I was really pleased with our effort and intensity.

They had 40 (points), and probably 10 of them we gave with turnovers.”

Sophomore Jamie Howie, starting in place of senior Julia Rice (flu), had eight points on two 3s for the Warriors. For D-C, Michalski had eight points, six rebounds, four steals and two assists.

Meanwhile, the Cougars have hit the second-most 3-pointers in the country (264) and also rank second nationally in 3-point percentage (.402).

“And, we share the ball very well.”

The Cougars allow opponents to shoot only 33.6 percent from the floor while winning games by an national-best margin of 28.7 points.

Defense is where Fanter’s game has improved the most.

“In high school, I always played in a zone,” Fanter said. “I wouldn’t say I’m the strongest player out there defensively. But I think my defense has definitely picked up.”

The Cougars play a 2-3 zone defense and mix in man-to-man and a half-court

Chanel Fanter remembers her first taste of college basketball a few months ago quite well.

The freshman forward at Chicago’s St. Xavier University had heard that the speed of the college game was a big adjustment.

“The competition is a big step up from high school,” said Fanter, a Crystal Lake South graduate. “Once you Chanel Fanter get thrown in there, it’s like, ‘This is different.’

Everyone is sprinting their butts off, and you think, ‘Oh my gosh.’”

Playing for one of the nation’s top NAIA Division II women’s programs has come quickly for Fanter, though.

The 5-foot-10 Fanter has started 21 games for the Cougars (20-2), who are ranked No. 4 nationally, and is averaging 8.1 points and 4.1 rebounds.

“I didn’t really expect a lot,” said Fanter, who is playing both forward spots. “I never thought I would have as big of a chance to play as some of the other girls. I thought they were a step ahead of me.”

Fanter has helped spark the team’s offense, which is scoring almost 90 points a game, by driving the ball to the basket.

“My coach always says to drive and attack and kick the ball out to the open shooter,” she said. “Our offense is so well-rounded. You just have to find the open player.”

Fanter’s drives have allowed her to

Andrews’ hot streak: Illinois women’s basketball forward Ali Andrews has hit 50 percent of her 3-point field goals over the past five games. She leads the Illini (8-12) this season in 3-point percentage at .396.

Andrews, a freshman from Huntley, is averaging 8.4 points a game over that stretch, almost three points above her season average of 5.8. Andrews, who scored 13 points Sunday at Ohio State, also is pulling down 2.8 rebounds a game.

For the season, she has played in every game, starting five times.

Climbing the polls: Kentucky’s Thomas More College moved up one spot this week to No. 3 in the D3Hoops.com women’s basketball national poll.

The Saints, whose coaching staff includes third-year assistant Tanja Speaker, are 18-0 this season. Speaker is a Marian Central grad who played collegiately at D-II Florida Southern.

Thomas More, located in suburban Cincinnati, is winning games by an average of 33 points this season.

North Central leaper Oleson: Woodstock grad Kyle Oleson, a senior at D-III North Central College, cleared 6 feet, 3¼ inches to place second in the high jump at the Cardinal Opener on Jan. 20 in Naperville.

The performance matched Oleson’s best from the 2016 indoor track and field season. Oleson helped the 10th-ranked Cardinals win the four-team meet with 271 points.

8 HEAT 100, BULLS 88

Punishments fail to inspire Bulls

By JOE COWLEY

HEAT 100, BULLS 88

jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Punishments were handed out on Friday.

The Bulls not only fined Dwyane Wade, Jimmy Butler and Rajon Rondo for comments that they deemed detrimental to the organization, but coach Fred Hoiberg also made the decision to send a message to Wade and Butler by benching both for the first five-plus minutes of the game with Miami.

By late Friday evening, it was apparent that the slaps to the wrists didn’t have quite the effect Hoiberg and the front office were hoping for.

Wade and Butler went a combined 7-for-30, scoring 18 points, as the Bulls lost to the Heat, 100-88, at the United Center. That was fresh off a Wednesday game in which the two combined for 73 points.

They wanted Wade and Butler to be a bit more neutered off the court? They seemed to get a dose of it on the court, especially Butler, who finished with just three points.

“It’s OK, I’ll be back,’’ Butler said.

“Disengaged? Nah. It was a little different [coming off the bench]. I was still into it.’’

The loss dropped the Bulls to 23-25 on the season, but was only the nightcap of a long day for the entire organization.

In the wake of Butler and Wade criticizing the heart and work ethic of the roster, and then Rondo taking to his Instagram account to retaliate and question the leadership skills of both veteran teammates, an angry front office called

The Bulls’ Dwyane Wade and Jimmy Butler sit on the bench as Friday’s game against the Miami Heat at the United Center begins. a 40-minute team meeting before the morning shootaround, allowing the entire roster to vent.

All three players met with the media, as did Hoiberg, but it was the front office that truly lost the news conference, as general manager Gar Forman simply made a 90-second statement, and then quickly darted out of the media circle, refusing to answer any questions.

And this from the organization that promised “more transparency” this season.

“We were extremely disappointed that several players chose to speak out after our last game,” Forman said. “Ev-

ery team has issues and it’s our strong belief that when you have issues or critical comments that you keep those issues or critical comments in house, that it is not shared through you [media] guys, that it is not shared through social media.

“It is totally unacceptable.”

Surely, the players must have felt Forman’s criticism? Not exactly.

All three players insisted they had no regrets of how they handled the last 48 hours, and Butler went as far as to say he couldn’t promise it wouldn’t happen again.

“I don’t regret anything,” Butler said.

“I don’t. Why? I only got one life to live anyways so live it to the fullest, be who you are. Like it or not, I’m me. I do things my way.”

According to a source, the front office was so irate by the incident Thursday evening, that they were figuring out ways to get Rondo off the roster sooner than later.

Rondo was asked about that Friday and didn’t seem to care how the front office felt about him these days.

“Um, I won’t lose sleep at night,” Rondo said, when asked whether his future with the Bulls was further in doubt. “I’m going to continue to be Rajon Rondo, and that’s all I can be. I’m going to come in here and work, do what I can for this team while I’m here. However they use me, and that’s what it’s going to be.’’

As for Wade, his attitude was simple.

“As a leader, sometimes you can’t be liked,” Wade said. “I’m OK with that. I just want this team to reach its potential.”

Several jabs by players indictment of Hoiberg

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – The hesitation said it all.

During his Friday meeting with the media, Fred Hoiberg was reminded of his success from his days coaching at Iowa State, and then was asked whether his current gig with the Bulls was really worth all the headaches that seem to surround this team in his first two seasons.

His reply started with a laugh.

Then a long drawn out, “Ummmmm.’’

“It’s a job that’s tough. All 30 of us that are in this position have tough jobs,’’ Hoiberg said. “There’s a lot of pressure. It’s a high stress. It’s tough on our families. It’s all those things. At the same time, being in this league, you know what you’re getting into. I was in the NBA for 15 years – 10 as a player and

five in the front office. My dream was to get back in and coach.

“You’re in these situations – these things come up over the course of the year with pretty much every team, with maybe the exception of a few.

You deal with it the best you can and try to move forward. We did that. Again, hopefully Fred Hoiberg we learn from it and become a better basketball team.’’

Although a lot of the focus on Friday was on Dwyane Wade, Jimmy Butler and Rajon Rondo speaking to the media about the jabs they all threw over a 24-hour period, almost lost in all the explanations was the fact that some of what was said was an indictment on

Hoiberg.

After the Wednesday loss to Atlanta, Wade and Butler used the media to fire on their teammates about work ethic, heart, shot selection and caring about the game. Rondo retaliated on his Instagram account Thursday, and at one point wrote, “My vets didn’t have an influence on the coaching staff. They couldn’t change the plan because it didn’t work for them. I played under one of the greatest coaches, and he held everyone accountable.’’

A couple of important messages there

by Rondo. First, that Wade and Butler were influencing Hoiberg and changing his game plans when they didn’t like them. Secondly, that Hoiberg wasn’t holding “everyone accountable” like Doc Rivers did in the Boston days.

Even Butler was asked about the in-

fluence he has on Hoiberg, and didn’t exactly deny it.

“Maybe,’’ Butler said. “If I have a concern, I go to them. That don’t mean [Hoiberg] listens to me all the time, but I would hope that he takes my opinion into mind.”

Hoiberg was asked whether Wade or Butler do have influence over the staff and gave a one-word reply of, “No.” As far as the accountability, well, even Hoiberg admitted it’s a part of this team that remained a work in progress.

“It’s something that we talked a lot about,” Hoiberg said of accountability.

“It starts with me. I got to get us prepared to play. I got to get us prepared to go out and play consistent basketball and then try to put a plan to get us to go out and win games and be consistent in all areas.’’

BEARS AT THE SENIOR BOWL

and being the beneficiary of a quarterback error. He’s far from a finished product, but as intriguing prospects go, he’s near the top of the list.

“I could feel it. I definitely heard the buzz,” Melifonwu said after Thursday’s final practice at Ladd-Peebles Stadium. “But I’m just out here to try

just talking to Roy (Anderson, the Bears’ new assistant secondary coach), studying the playbook a little. He’s a great guy. The whole staff has just been phenomenal.”

Most of the first-round draft prospects were not at the Senior Bowl. But there are plenty of intriguing prospects, including Melifonwu. Here are a few others: Cooper Kupp, WR, Eastern Michigan: The 6-1 1/2, 198-pound Kupp, who averaged 107 receptions for 1,616 yards and 18 touchdowns over four seasons, caught everything in sight the first two days at Senior Bowl practice.

Jonnu Smith, TE, Florida International: Doesn’t have overwhelming size at 6-3, 235, but showed prowess as a blocker and receiver.

Haason Reddick, LB, Temple: A pass-rushing end in college (10.5 sacks, 22.5 tackles-for-loss in 2016), Reddick made a smooth transition to inside linebacker at the Senior Bowl.

Montravius Adams, DT, Auburn: With his size (6-3, 308), he could be a monster if somebody can refine his impressive skill-set.

Eddie Vanderdoes, DT, UCLA: Former Notre Dame signee was slowed by injuries at UCLA but still has the quickness at his size (6-3, 320) to make an impact.

BLACKHAWKS

Crawford made slow, steady rise to join elite

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com LOS ANGELES – Jonathan Toews couldn’t contain his smile and he couldn’t keep the secret.

Toews was in the visitors dressing room at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit after a morning skate in March. The World Cup rosters were to be revealed later in the day, but the playCorey ers who were chosen already had been told.

Crawford And Toews was so excited that he spilled the beans without even the slightest bit of poking or prodding.

Not about himself. About Corey Crawford.

“There’s one guy I’m super-excited about because I always talk about him and I don’t feel he gets enough attention for as good a player as he is, and that’s Corey Crawford,” Toews said.

NHL All-Star Skills Competition Time, place: 6 p.m. Saturday, STAPLES Center in Los Angeles TV: NBCSN Events: • Four Line Challenge • Accuracy Shooting • Fastest Skater • Hardest Shot • Shootout That moment – being chosen for Team Canada – put a merciful end to the tired (although legitimate) narrative that Crawford was criminally underappreciated in hockey circles. But it was a long and sometimes trying road to get from Rockford to Los Angeles, where he will be an All-Star for the second time in three years.

After five years in the minors and two so-so NHL seasons, Crawford’s 2013 Stanley Cup run won over astute hockey

observers. The 2015 Stanley Cup run finally won over his most ardent doubters in the Hawks fan base. And his brilliant play during the 2015-16 regular season, in which he carried the Hawks for much of the season, seemed to finally win over the rest of the hockey world.

It was a big deal when Crawford was named an All-Star two years ago. It was all but a given this year.

“We love his development,” coach Joel Quenneville said. “Real nice pattern of getting better every year.”

That’s what’s most impressive about Crawford’s rise to the top – it has been slow, but it has been steady. And the low point might have been the turning point.

Crawford had eight long months to stew over his performance in the first round of the 2012 playoffs, which the Hawks lost in six games to the Coyotes, thanks in part to a couple of soft overtime goals given up by Crawford. He had a reputation for being good but inconsistent, for being prone to terrible goals, and for not having the mental toughness to over-

come such goals.

Crawford doesn’t deny it.

“I probably felt the pressure [after that season],” he said. “You know what?

I don’t think it was that bad a year. I just don’t think I was consistent that year. I won 30 games and the numbers weren’t as high, because those games where I was bad, I was really bad. . . . That was a good learning year. It was something that I had to go through. I thought it made me better.”

Scott Darling, Crawford’s goalie partner and close friend, had a similar, if more labyrinthine, climb through the minors to get to the NHL. And he said Crawford’s work ethic and adaptability are what set him apart. Crawford has adjusted how deep he stands in the crease, he was an early adopter of the new “reverse VH style,” and he’s always tweaking little things about his game, even now well into his 30s.

“He’s evolved with the game, which a lot of goalies who have been in the league for a long time don’t,” Darling said.

MOBILE, Ala. – Connecticut safety Obi Melifonwu is one of those fast-rising prospects NFL teams probably wish they could stash away until the draft so nobody else finds out just how good he might be.

Overlooked among higher-profile safety prospects while playing on the 107th-ranked pass defense in the country on a disappointing 3-9 UConn team that lost eight of its last nine games, Melifonwu suddenly is a hard-to-miss prospect who is unlikely to be the bargain some NFL teams unable to invest a first-round pick on LSU’s Jamal Adams, Ohio State’s Malik Hooker or Michigan’s Jabril Peppers probably thought he might be.

At 6-foot-4, 219 pounds, Melifonwu (pronounced Mela-FAHN-wu) has ultimate NFL safety size and showed good range at Senior Bowl practices for Bears coach John Fox’s North team this week. Scouts expect him to run in the “low 4.4s” in the 40-yard dash at the scouting combine. No doubt he can tackle – he had 118 tackles this season at UConn, including 24 in the season finale against Tulane. He also had four interceptions – by making plays on the ball rather than playing center field

to get better – grind, whatever it takes, just keep improving my game every day.”

On and off the field, Melifonwu showed NFL teams what they were looking for. A native of London who grew up in Grafton, Massachusetts, he’s a pretty polished personality who shows leadership potential.

“I always knew I could play at this level. I have a lot of confidence in myself,” Melifonwu said. “Coming out here, flying around, making plays, being able to communicate; being able to pick up the defense really quickly just showed a lot of people that I’m definitely ready for the next level.”

Melifonwu’s size is a great starting point. But he said his strength as a safety is his versatility.

“I could tackle. I could cover in space. I could cover receivers, slots, tight ends,” he said. “I could communicate and be a leader back there in the defense and get the defense lineup up and be accountable. I could be an asset to every team. I definitely see myself playing in the league for a long time.”

With an upgrade at safety arguably No. 1 on the Bears’ list of needs, there’s no doubt Melifonwu is on their radar.

Melifonwu said he was impressed with the Bears’ coaching staff this week.

“I love all of them,” he said. “I was

10 PGA TOUR: FARMERS INSURANCE OPEN

Rose takes lead; Tiger leaves early

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

SAN DIEGO – Justin Rose already achieved what he wanted Friday in the Farmers Insurance Open. One last birdie for the lead made the day a little bit better.

Spooked by the bumpy greens late in the day at Torrey Pines that cost him two bogeys, Rose rolled in a 10-foot birdie putt on the par-5 closing hole on the South Course for a 1-under-par 71 that gave him a one-shot lead going into a weekend that no longer has as much star power.

Tiger Woods missed the cut in his return to the PGA Tour after 17

months. Perhaps more shocking was that Jason Day and Dustin Johnson also missed the cut, as did Rickie Fowler. Phil Mickelson was on the bubble until making a birdie on the 18th for a 72 to make the cut with one shot to spare.

Rose, who was at 8-under 136, now gets two more cracks at the South Course, where the average score for two days was 73.8.

“Everyone has played both courses now, and now we get to play the bruiser for the next two days,” Rose said.

“So you just want to basically put yourself within shot.”

Brandt Snedeker saved par from a shot that nearly went out of bounds

on No. 12, rammed in a birdie putt on the 13th and held on for a 69. He was one shot behind as he tries to join J.C. Snead, Woods and Mickelson as the only back-to-back winners since this event began in 1952.

Adam Hadwin of Canada, coming off a 59 and a runner-up finish last week in the California desert, shot a 71 and joined Snedeker at 7-under 137.

The cut was at even-par 144.

“I actually think the cut mark is incredibly low for two days around here,” Rose said. “Pretty much everyone who’s made the cut is still in the golf tournament.”

It still was too high for Woods.

He opened with a birdie on the par-5

SPORTS BRIEFS Celebration of Marengo grad Caskey’s life set for Sunday

There will be a celebration of Derek Caskey’s life at 3 p.m. Sunday at Marengo’s Homer “Bill” Barry Gymnasium.

Caskey, 20, was a 2015 Marengo High School graduate who died Jan. 17 in Madison, Wisconsin, after a battle with cancer.

He played football for Marengo and played in 2015 as a freshman at NCAA Division III Central College in Pella, Iowa.

Caskey’s disease, squamous cell carcinoma, is an aggressive cancer that started in his mouth and became prevalent last spring. It made it impossible for him to return to classes in the fall.

Parents Patrick and Rae Caskey, and their son Zach, welcome people to come and remember Derek. The family had remained strong and positive through the fall months, but recent examinations showed that Derek’s cancer had spread to other body parts and was not treatable.

There also will be a spaghetti dinner to benefit the Caskey family from 5 to 8 p.m. Feb. 11 at the high school. Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for children. Anyone interested in tickets may buy them from Carrie Taylor at 815-985-1522 or from Sue Ryan at 815-404-0153. Tickets also will be available at the door.

Harvard Community Radio to broadcast events at Marengo

Harvard Community Radio, 101.3 FM, will broadcast all three events of the First National Challenge between Harvard and Marengo high schools Saturday at Marengo.

The events include girls basketball at 4:30 p.m., wrestling at 6 p.m. and boys basketball at 7:30 p.m.

10th on the North Course. He added another birdie on the par-5 fifth. He threw in a pair of bogeys and never looked like he was going to be sticking around for the weekend. Woods shot 72 and missed the cut at Torrey Pines for the first time.

“I just didn’t make enough birdies,” Woods said. “It’s frustrating not being able to have a chance to win the tournament.”

On a course where he has won eight times, Woods has failed to finish 72 holes in his past three starts at Torrey Pines.

Day, the No. 1 player in the world, missed the cut for the second straight year at Torrey Pines.

• ROUNDUP Lawsuit alleges at least 52 rapes

by Baylor football players

WACO, Texas – A former Baylor University student who said she was raped by two football players filed a federal lawsuit Friday against the school that alleges there were dozens more assaults of women involving other players.

The lawsuit by the student, who is listed in the documents only as “Elizabeth Doe,” alleges at least 52 rapes by more than 30 football players over a four-year period.

It also alleges a “culture of sexual violence” and describes her 2013 attack by two players.

It doesn’t detail the other alleged attacks but says some were recorded by the players, who shared them with friends.

Fifty-two assaults would dramatically increase the 17 reports of sexual and physical attacks involving 19 players since 2011 previously acknowledged by Baylor officials.

The school faces at least five lawsuits from women who allege they were attacked and that the school failed to protect them or ignored their complaints.

Nadal vs. Federer final set

MELBOURNE, Australia – Rafael Nadal took five sets and almost five hours to fend off “Baby Fed” and revive a classic Grand Slam final against the one-and-only Roger Federer.

Nadal’s 6-3, 5-7, 7-6 (5), 6-7 (4), 6-4 win over Grigor Dimitrov in a grueling, 4-hour, 56-minute semifinal match sets up a championship weekend at the Australian Open like no other, with every singles finalist in their 30s.

The all-Williams women’s final Saturday features the record-chasing Serena against Venus – the first decider between the sisters at a major since 2009. The Roger-Rafa final will be Sunday.

CHICAGO – You’re Jose Quintana and all you’ve heard all winter long is not if, but when you will be traded by the White Sox. So when the Sox’s fan convention came up on the calendar on this late January weekend, Quintana found himself in the part awkward, part uneasy, part uncertain place of being surrounded by adoring teammates and fans, with the clear understanding he might not pitch for them by the time Opening Day rolls around April 3.

But if you’re Quintana, you roll with the flow. Pitching well and almost always being on the short end of run support toughens you up. Quintana, one of baseball’s most effective and consistent left-handed starters over the past four seasons, said he expects to be with the Sox on Opening Day, and if that’s the case, he’s the odds-on favorite to make his first Opening Day start.

“I try to do my job, and that’s it,” Quintana said. “I don’t pay attention to rumors.”

After general manager Rick Hahn traded Chris Sale and Adam Eaton during the winter meetings, signaling the start of an overhaul to load up on prospects, deepen the farm system and project a championship-caliber team in three years or more, Quintana essentially was put on alert as the next valuable piece to be traded. But the market, Hahn said, hasn’t presented itself for a return the Sox view as viable. So they will wait for one.

“If we had our druthers, we would continue to make transactions like [the Eaton] and the Sale deal in rapid succession,” Hahn said. “Our desire is to get through this process and build a sustainable core of talented players as quickly as possible.”

Quintana is not alone among players wearing Sox jerseys wondering whether they’ll be wearing one in April. Or after the nonwaiver trade deadline Aug. 1.

Todd Frazier, eligible for free agency for the first time after the season, is another.

Frazier and any of the veterans are fair game for the right return.

“It’s not hanging over my head,” said Frazier, a 40-home run hitter acquired from the Reds last offseason. “Once you’ve been traded you don’t worry about it too much. They said I was supposed to go to the Dodgers, and then Justin Turner signed with them, so it was

‘on to the next team.’ When my agent hits me up, I will either worry or get excited.”

For veterans such as Frazier, it’s not always easy to get excited about going to spring training knowing your team isn’t built to win. Frazier, who will be counted on for clubhouse leadership if and when he’s still here, talked like a leader Friday while the many prospects around him gushed about the excitement of growing together in one system and being good one day.

Asked whether there is any reasonable way of believing the Sox can contend in 2017, Hahn said he’d have a hard time standing on the podium at SoxFest pitching that with a straight face.
