Good morning, McHenry County ...

Overdue thanks offered to youth sports coaches Around the turn of the millennium, I got together with a bunch of buddies from McHenry County for an annual fishing trip up north. Poker chips, cigars, whiskey, you know the drill.

As we got older, that trip evolved into a fathers and sons gathering. Still poker, cigars, less whiskey, but not what most moms would consider actual parenting either. Just as fun, even more so.

Some of my friends had slightly older boys, and the dream began to fade as travel sports season took over families. It was frustrating that we couldn’t find mutual summer weekends that worked and a sense of dread overtook me that this might someday be my life, too.

Reluctantly dragged into the clubs sports a few years ago by a boy with an aptitude for striking a round white ball with an aluminum club, we braced for the worst. But brutal April winds and fast-food diets aside, we eventually started to embrace it.

As long as there are stadium chairs, blankets, sweatshirts and a half-bag of sunflower seeds in the car, we’re good. Pausing for a moment, we realized that as McHenry County transplants, our closest local friends are the ones we’ve made by being stuck together at youth sporting events.

And while we enjoy having some family time, it’s also about your kid doing what he really loves to do in a competitive atmosphere. He’s learning about teamwork, respect, maintaining a positive attitude in a sport that’s more failure than success and working to achieve goals.

You’re putting your trust in some men or women who have busy jobs, too, but volunteer

MCEDC encourages local businesses to apply for international expansion grants

CRYSTAL LAKE – The McHenry County Economic Development Corp. is partnering with Metro Chicago Exports to offer a grant program to local businesses looking to expand into international markets.

Metro Chicago Exports is accepting applications for the 2017 Grant Program, presented by JP Morgan Chase & Co, according to a news release. This program will award grants up to $5,000 to small- and medium-sized companies in McHenry County and

huge amounts of time and effort to helping develop your kid’s skills and character. It’s not just about sports, and it doesn’t matter whether it’s softball, soccer, football or lacrosse.

There are so many great people who do take on these sometimes thankless roles, and I’m not sure they even know what an important service they’re providing to their communities.

Very few of these kids will play at the college level and almost none will have professional careers, but the development of their character will last forever. When someone besides your parents believes in you and puts you in a position to succeed, that’s a big deal to a kid.

I’m reflecting on this before there’s no time to reflect when I’ll soon be flying right from my desk to Woodstock, McHenry, Crystal Lake, Elgin, Rockford or other exotic northern Illinois locales hoping to catch the boy’s first at-bat when possible because that matters to him.

Thank you to all those youth coaches out there and good luck to all the players and parents on another great season of whatever carves up your spring and summer. There’s no harm is skipping a game or two to go fishing when you need to, but there’s no right or wrong way to do this.

BREAKING GROUND Construction starts on Sage Products’ 27-acre expansion in Cary

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com CARY – Construction has started on Sage Products’ 200,000-square-foot warehouse and distribution center in Cary, and project leaders said the facility is expected to be operational by the end of the year.

The first phase of the expansion will add about 50 jobs, while the second phase – which would add an additional 610,000 square feet of warehouse, manufacturing, office and parking space by 2021 – is expected to add about 300 jobs, village officials have said.

Sage bought the 27 acres of land

east of its current facility, 3909 Three Oaks Road, for about $3.3 million in December, records show.

Although work had already started a couple of weeks ago on the vacant lot, about 50 people came out Wednesday morning for a ceremonial groundbreaking.

“Obviously, this is a celebration of Sage’s past and all that we’ve accomplished in this community [and] that we’re here today,” Sage Products President and CEO emeritus Scott Brown said.

“But more than anything else, it’s a celebration of our future with McHenry County, with the village of Cary and obviously for all the oppor-

tunities that we think will come forward in the years to come.”

Sage Products has been in its existing facility in Cary since 2001, and since it started in 1971 has had locations in Hebron, Crystal Lake and at another location in Cary, according to the company’s website.

Michigan-based Stryker Corp. bought Sage Products in February 2016 for about $2.78 billion.

Sage Products had considered another location outside of Cary, but the village made the expansion doable for them, in part by allowing for the closure of Sage Parkway, Cary Mayor Mark Kownick said.

Although some residents voiced

concerns about the road closure, ultimately it was approved by the Village Board, and Kownick said there have not been many complaints since.

“This is a great economic development piece – it fits in great with what our plan is to increase our industrial presence,” Kownick said.

Sage Products has about 850 employees, Vice President and General Manager for Sage Products Bill Howes said, and Kownick estimated about 100 of those people live in Cary.

Products Sage Products makes all are aimed at preventing adverse events for patients in hospitals, and

New burger and brat restaurant, bar opens in Richmond historic district

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com RICHMOND – A team of local entrepreneurs are trying to bring an urban, edgy feel to the village of yesteryear with a new burgers and brats restaurant and bar in Richmond’s historic district.

Richmond BratHaus has been met with strong community support, Gina Garbis said.

“We have had a really warm welcoming,” she said. “The support has been amazing. We’ve had a lot of people from

town and out of town. A lot of people passing through, We have a really great support base and we’re excited to be here.”

Brothers Jerry and Tony Garbis grew up in the restaurant business, as their father owns a chain of fast-food restaurants in Westchester, Garbis said. When husband and wife Gina and Jerry moved to Richmond about five years ago, they liked the building but never had serious business plans until it became available.

Gina and Jerry, along with husband and wife team Tony and Amanda Garbis lease the property and operate the business.

Crystal Lake is set to approve smaller, balanced 2018 budget

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Once again, the city’s budget will include a substantial decrease in expenditures.

Continuing an ongoing trend, city staff have presented the City Council with a budget for the next fiscal year that spends less. The proposed budget for fiscal 2018, which starts May 1, spends just less than $89.4 million, or a 7 percent decrease from this year’s budget expenses of $95.5 million.

The decrease in expenses comes several months after the City Council approved a levy that is expected to drop the city’s tax rate by at least 5.2 percent by keeping the levy flat and capturing the city’s increasing assessed value.

The City Council will hold a public hearing and vote on the 2018 budget at its Tuesday evening meeting.

If you go n WHAT: Crystal Lake City Council meeting n WHEN: Tuesday, April 18 n WHERE: City Hall, 100 W. Woodstock St. n COST: Free and open to the public Much of the $6.8 million decrease in spending in the 2018 budget comes from a decrease in capital spending because of completed projects, and a decrease in revenue sharing expenditures after several sales tax sharing agreements have come to an end.

The largest source of income for the city – 58 percent in next year’s budget – comes from sales and use taxes. The budget also anticipates small or modest growth in revenue from use tax, video gambling licenses and receipts from Three Oaks Recreation Area.

Unlike most other local municipalities, Crystal Lake city govern-

ment does not levy a property tax to finance its general fund, which pays for city administration, police protection, public works and several other expenses. However, the city does levy property taxes to pay for the fire department, public library, and pensions for police officers, firefighters and rank-and-file city workers in the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund.

The next budget eliminates another one and a half positions, bringing to almost 24 the number of full-time positions eliminated through attrition since the Great Recession hit a decade ago.

None of the eliminated positions were sworn police officers or firefighters.

More than 70 percent of general fund expenditures go to personnel services.

About 10 percent of a city homeowner’s property tax bill goes to fund city government. The majority by far – more than 60 percent – goes to School Districts 47 and 155.

Huntley man, 84, faces aggravated DUI charge after fatal Sun City crash

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – An 84-year-old Huntley man who crashed his car into a Sun City home in February has been charged with aggravated drunken driving after a woman who was in the home died this week.

Mary Ann Arneson, 75, of Huntley, died Sunday, family members said.

Two days later, prosecutors charged Donald F. Helfer, 84, of 12388 Black Oak Trail, Huntley, with aggravated driving under the influence causing great bodily injury. A Class 4 Donald felony is typically punHelfer ishable by one to three years in prison. However, DUI cases involving death or great bodily harm can have enhanced sentencing ranges.

“This case is still under investigation and we are reviewing the charges,” said Assistant State’s Attorney John Gibbons, chief of the Criminal Division at the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office.

Huntley police were called at about 11:30 p.m. Feb. 4 to a crash in

the area of Del Webb Boulevard and Hemmer Road.

At the scene, police found a 2005 Mercury Grand Marquis had crashed into a home in the 13300 block of Honeysuckle Drive.

Helfer and two people inside a bedroom of the home at the time of the crash were taken to Centegra Hospital – Huntley that night. Mary Ann Arneson was later flown to Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge. She died Sunday.

Helfer was driving south on Hemmer Road when he failed to yield at a stop sign at Del Webb Boulevard.

He drove through the three-way intersection, up a berm and into the house, police said at the time.

In 2004, a vehicle also drove through the intersection and into a berm at the same location, but did not crash into the house, according to Huntley police.

Police initially cited Helfer for failure to yield to avoid a crash. Officers requested a toxicology report as a routine part of their investigation.

On Tuesday, Helfer was charged with a felony in connection with the crash.

He was released after posting

$1,500 of a $15,000 bond, according to a news release from the Huntley Police Department. Court records didn’t list an attorney for Helfer.

He could not be reached for comment at his home after 5 p.m. Wednesday.

He is next due in court April 26.

The victim, Arneson, moved to Sun City in 2005 and was a member of the Shepherd of the Prairie Lutheran Church in Huntley, according to her obituary.

Arneson attended Astoria Public School for 12 years and was at Augustana College for four years in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. She sang in the Augustana Choir.

Arneson was an elementary school teacher for 28 years and taught piano lessons in her home for nine years.

She also worked as a substitute teacher for eight years during her retirement.

Arneson married her husband, John, on June 30, 1962, at Bethany Church in Astoria, South Dakota.

She enjoyed music, traveling and crafts such as stained glass, painting, ceramics and playing cards, according

possession charges, according to court records.

Police got information Feb. 27 that a woman was being held against her will in the 300 block of Raymond Street in Elgin, police said. The 19-year-old victim was located and taken to a local hospital, police have said.

The victim previously told police she had been with Palomar at the residence in the 500 block of Levin Court when four females entered the residence with his help and forcibly removed her, police said.

She was put in a vehicle and beaten by the offenders before arriving at the Raymond Street residence, where police have said they continued to kick and punch her, and burned her with cigarettes.

Palomar will next appear in court Thursday.

A Lake in the Hills man accused of kidnapping and torturing his ex-girlfriend in 2016 in Elgin has been charged in connection with a Kane County Jail fight last week, authorities said.

Luis M. Palomar, 19, now faces a charge of mob action, a Class 4 felony, after an April 4 fight, according to Kane County court records. Three others also were charged.

Kane County Sheriff’s Lt. Pat Gengler said two inmates were fighting about 2:40 p.m. that day. Palomar, along with two others, got involved, Gengler said.

No officers were injured, and the two inmates who started the fight had minor injuries.

Palomar faces Class X fel-

ony charges of home invasion, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated battery. He also was charged Luis M. with aggravated Palomar battery-torture, a Class 1 felony.

He faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted of the most serious charge.

He fled the country and was arrested in Mexico on March 22, 2016, a week after the Elgin Police Department issued a warrant for his arrest, authorities said. Palomar was extradited from Mexico to the Los Angeles County Jail in California before being moved to the Kane County Adult Justice Center in April.

While he was out on bond in 2016, Palomar also was arrested on burglary and drug

The company always is looking to solve the next problem in health care, he said.

“As we solve that problem and develop that solution, the end result is you sell more products, you have more products and you need more space,” Howes said. “So that’s how Scott Brown we’ve grown this business for 45 years.”

The space where the existing distribution center is will be replaced by more manufacturing space, Vice President Commercial Operations for Sage Products Sean Haley Paul Hanifl said.

When the project was up for approval in the fall, Sage Products amended its original plans to add a private driveway for trucks leaving the property to the east and exiting on Georgetown Drive.

dition would have a larger setback than its current building and would have landscaping to cover the loading docks to the south, to help address some resident’s concerns.

As to why the company stuck in Cary, it just made sense to stay near the existing facility, Haley said.

Sage Products has a visible presence throughout the county, from the Sage YMCA in Crystal Lake to the Centegra Sage Cancer Center in McHenry.

Through donations and sponsorships, Sage Products estimated earlier that its employees have supplied area nonprofits with $3.71 million over the past 10 years.

SYCAMORE – An Illinois judge on Wednesday granted a certificate of innocence to a Washington state man who was wrongfully convicted in 2012 of the 1957 kidnapping and killing of a 7-yearold girl, clearing the way for him to sue Illinois.

Jack McCullough said at a hearing last week that he’s been portrayed as a monster and that people still think of him as one, and that he wants justice.

DeKalb County Associate Judge William Brady granted McCullough a certificate of innocence, which would allow him to sue Illinois for damages for wrongly convicting him in Maria Ridulph’s killing.

“Is it more likely that the defendant would be found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, or is it more likely he would be found not guilty, and not responsible for Maria Ridulph’s disappearance and murder?” Brady said in explaining his decision. “Based on the changes in the law, and the consideration of the additional evidence now available to this

court, the latter of these questions is true.”

Maria’s sister, Pat Quinn, expressed disappointment with the judge’s ruling.

“Do I feel Jack McCullough killed my sister?” Quinn said outside the court.

“Yes, I do.”

A prosecutor concluded evidence backed McCullough’s alibi that he had been 40 miles away when Maria disappeared nearly 60 years ago. A judge agreed, ordering McCullough’s release in April 2016 after he had served four years of a life sentence.

Maria and a friend were playing in the snow outside of her home on Dec. 3, 1957, when a young man approached and offered them piggyback rides. The friend dashed home to grab mittens, returning to find Maria and the man gone. Maria’s decomposed body was found months later in a forest. McCullough was cleared as a suspect in the 1950s. He became a target of investigators years later after one of his half-sisters told authorities their mother said on her deathbed that she believed her son may have killed Maria.

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Nothing will help you get ahead faster than good old-fashioned elbow grease, compromise and teamwork. If you share your ideas and show your enthusiasm, everyone will want to support your efforts. Aim for quality, not quantity, and you will be satisfied with the results you achieve.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Make strategic moves that will help you gain respect and the support of your peers. Choose perfection and precision over excess to help you reach your goals.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Push for what you want, but do so in your own unique way. If you aren’t afraid to stand out, people will take notice

and give you the little push you need to reach your goals.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You’ll face an emotional dilemma if you mix business with pleasure. A partnership will head into a stalemate if you or the person you are dealing with isn’t being authentic.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Show passion in all that you pursue. Make arrangements to do things with youngsters or socialize with people you haven’t seen for some time. Make romance a priority.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – You’ll end up being angry if you let someone force you into a compromising position. Take a pass and concentrate on personal improvements that will lead to your success.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Emotional energy

will encourage you to push through what needs to be done so that you can move forward with your plans. Protect your health by eliminating stressful situations.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Don’t stifle passionate feelings. Speak up about past regrets and actions you would like to take to resolve pending matters.

Your honesty will be greatly appreciated.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Do something to boost your morale. Getting a makeover or doing something special or exciting with a loved one will help revitalize the relationship and your physical well-being.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Secret plans will be ruined if you aren’t careful. Don’t trust anyone to uphold a promise to keep something

under wraps. If you want to avoid meddling, don’t share your plans.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Turn your thoughts and ideas into something tangible.

You’ll have the chance to excel if you veer from the mainstream and do your own thing. Trust in your knowledge and skills.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Look for a creative outlet that will allow you to put your skills, talents and intelligence to work. Mapping out what you want to accomplish will help you reach your goal.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Move forward at a steady pace. Don’t feel pressured to jump too quickly or to present what you are working on prematurely. Stick to your game plan in order to succeed.

Flight 3411 passengers to be compensated United CEO ‘ashamed’ after watching video of man’s forced removal

By DON BABWIN

The Associated Press CHICAGO – United Airlines sought to quell the uproar over a man being dragged off a plane by announcing Tuesday that it would no longer ask police to remove passengers from full flights and would compensate customers who were on the flight when the man was removed.

In an interview with ABC’s “Good Morning America” aired Wednesday, United parent company CEO Oscar Munoz said he felt “ashamed” watching video of the man being forced off the jet. He has promised to review the airline’s passenger-removal policy.

Munoz, who leads United’s parent company, apologized again to Kentucky physician David Dao, his family and the other passengers who witnessed him being taken off the flight.

“That is not who our family at United is,” he said. “This will never happen again on a United flight. That’s my promise.”

News from across the state Chef, cancer worker charged in terrorist case

CHICAGO – Two suburban Chicago men who posed for photos holding a black Islamic State group flag at a Lake Michigan beach park were arrested Wednesday on federal terrorist charges, and an undercover operative said one of the men suggested homosexuals should be thrown off the city’s tallest building.

An FBI sting begun in 2015 compiled evidence that Joseph D. Jones and Edward Schimenti sought to provide material support to Islamic State, including by provided cellphones to one person working for the FBI and posing as an IS supporter believing the phones would be used to detonate car bombs in Syria, the 65-page complaint says.

Travelers check in at the United Airlines ticket counter Dec. 21, 2013, at Terminal 1 in O’Hare International Airport in Chicago.

In the future, law enforcement will not be involved in removing a “booked, paid, seated passenger,” Munoz said. “We can’t do that.”

In an effort to calm the backlash, United also announced that passengers on United Express Flight 3411 would be compensated equal to the cost of their tickets. United spokeswoman Megan McCarthy said

Wednesday that the passengers can take the compensation in cash, travel credits or miles.

The flight was loaded and preparing to leave Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport on Sunday when the man was dragged off. Video shot by passengers showing the man’s bloodied face went viral on social media, prompting a storm of protest.

Jones, a part-time chef who also has been attending college, and Schimenti, who worked at a cancer treatment center, drove the FBI operative to Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport last week on what they thought would be the first leg of a journey to Syria. The complaint says Schimenti told him to “drench that land ... with blood.”

the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said.

U.S. Steel said a preliminary investigation showed an expansion joint failed Tuesday in a pipe at its Portage, Indiana, facility, allowing wastewater from an electroplating treatment process that contains hexavalent chromium to flow into the wrong wastewater treatment plant at the complex.

EPA: U.S. Steel leaked chemical into tributary

PORTAGE, Ind. – A spill at a U.S. Steel plant in northern Indiana that sent wastewater containing a potentially carcinogenic chemical into a Lake Michigan tributary was apparently caused by a pipe failure but testing has found none of that toxic substance in the lake, the company and federal officials said Wednesday.

Tuesday’s spill of an unknown amount of wastewater led to the closure of three beach areas at the scenic Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore and prompted a local water utility to stop drawing water from the lake out of “an abundance of caution,”

Organization sues over immigrant detained in Ill.

CHICAGO – A Honduran immigrant who said he posted bail but remains jailed in northern Illinois jail on the request of immigration authorities has filed a federal complaint calling his detention unconstitutional.

The Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund sued on behalf of Emil Santos of Fox Lake.

Santos was arrested April 1 on domestic violence charges. The lawsuit said his sister posted bail, but Immigration and Customs Enforcement issued a detainer,

Also Wednesday, a Chicago alderman said representatives from United and the city’s Aviation Department have been summoned before a city council committee to answer questions about the confrontation at O’Hare Airport.

Alderman Mike Zalewski said he did not know who will represent the airline before the Aviation Committee, but Munoz has been notified of the hearing scheduled for Thursday.

Chicago Aviation Commissioner Ginger Evans also will speak.

Munoz called the incident a “system failure” and said United would reassess its procedures for seeking volunteers to give up their seats when a flight is full. United was trying to find seats for four employees, meaning four passengers had to deplane.

It was at least Munoz’s fourth statement about the confrontation.

After the video first emerged, he said the airline was reaching out to the man to “resolve this situation.”

Hours later on Monday, his tone turned defensive. He described the man as “disruptive and belligerent.”

By Tuesday afternoon, almost two days after the Sunday evening events, Munoz issued another apology.

“No one should ever be mistreated this way,” Munoz said.

MALDEF said Wednesday that Santos hasn’t been notified of an immigration case and his incarceration violates his due process rights.

Plans in works for $130M hospital project in Rockford

ROCKFORD – A $130 million hospital renovation and construction project in Rockford is in the works.

SwedishAmerican – a division of UW Health – announced plans for the project that will include a new four-story building and an upgrade of an intensive care unit so that it can provide the state-of-the-art care for newborns.

Dr. Bill Gorski is the president and CEO of SwedishAmerican. He told the (Rockford) Register Star the project could begin in September. He said it might create 600 union construction jobs and ultimately lead to the hiring of as many as 96 physicians.

Spicer says Hitler comment ‘inexcusable and reprehensible’

WASHINGTON – White House press secretary Sean Spicer said Wednesday that his attempt to compare the Holocaust and Syrian President Bashar Assad’s use of chemical weapons was “inexcusable and reprehensible” and was made all the worse by this being a holy week for Christians and Jews.

He said the comment, made Tuesday at the White House briefing, was personally and professionally disappointing, and he asked for “folks’ forgiveness.”

“To make a gaffe and a mistake like this is inexcusable and reprehensible,” Spicer said during a previously scheduled appearance at a forum on the presidency and the press sponsored by the Newseum. Christians are preparing for Easter on Sunday, and Jews are celebrating Passover.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov (left) and U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson arrive to attend a news conference Wednesday after their talks in Moscow, Russia. Amid a fierce dispute over Syria, the United States and Russia agreed Wednesday to work together on an international investigation of a Syrian chemical weapons attack last week.

Trump: U.S.-Russia relations may be at an ‘all-time low’

By VIVIAN SALAMA and JOSH LEDERMAN The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – With tensions rising over Syria and other issues, President Donald Trump said Wednesday that U.S. relations with Russia “may be at an all-time low” as he moved ever further away from his campaign promises to establish better ties with Moscow.

“Right now we’re not getting along with Russia at all,” Trump said flatly during a White House news conference with NATO Secretary-General Jens Soltenberg.

It was a grim assessment that echoed the words of Trump’s top diplomat, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who left an almost twohour meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow declaring the countries had reached a “low point” in relations.

Trump said Tillerson had completed a successful meeting with Putin, where “things went pretty well.” But he said it was an open question where relations go from here. He said “it would be a fantastic thing” if the two nations got along better but cautioned that “it may be just the opposite.”

Could Syria have launched the chemical weapons attack with Russia’s advance knowledge? Trump said it was “certainly possible” though “probably unlikely.”

The less-than-positive assessments of relations by both Trump and Tillerson reflected the former Cold War foes’ inability to forge greater cooperation, as Trump until recently has advocated.

More than 80 people were killed in what the U.S. has described as a nerve gas attack that Assad’s forces undoubtedly carried out. Russia says rebels were responsible for whatever

chemical agent was found, which the Trump administration calls a disinformation campaign.

The Moscow news conference came after Putin met Tillerson for the first time since Trump took office. The diplomats know each other well from Tillerson’s days as Exxon Mobil CEO. Putin had even honored Tillerson with a friendship award.

Beyond Syria, Russia’s alleged meddling in the U.S. presidential election also hovered over what was the first face-to-face encounter between Putin and any Trump administration Cabinet member.

Lavrov blasted U.S. claims that it has “irrefutable evidence” of election interference.

“We have not seen a single fact, or even a hint of facts,” he said. “I do not know who saw them. No one showed us anything, no one said anything, although we repeatedly asked to produce the details on which these unfounded accusations lie.”

He also rejected American claims of incontrovertible evidence that Assad ordered the chemical attack.

Still, Tillerson sought to stress the positives from his meetings. He said working groups would be established to improve U.S.-Russian ties and identify problems. He said the two sides would also discuss disagreements on Syria and how to end the country’s six-year civil war.

But such hopes appeared optimistic as the diplomats outlined their sharply diverging views on Syria. Until the chemical attack, the Trump administration had sought to step back from the U.S. position that Assad should leave power. But Tillerson repeated the administration’s new belief that “the reign of the Assad family is coming to an end.”

Lawmakers try to keep town halls from getting out of control

By NICHOLAS RICCARDI The Associated Press

DENVER – It was one of the most exclusive tickets in town: Only 800 were made available, and those lucky enough to score one had to show photo ID at the gate, where they were issued a wristband and a number. No signs bigger than a sheet of notebook paper were allowed, so as not to obscure anyone’s view.

The rules weren’t for a rock concert but for a town hall meeting Wednesday evening between Republican Rep. Mike Coffman and his suburban Denver constituents.

Town halls have become a risky proposition for GOP members of Congress since President Donald Trump’s election. Liberal groups and constituents angry about the Trump agenda have flooded public meetings, asking their representatives tough questions, chanting, heckling them and even shouting them down in skirmishes that have made for embarrassing online videos.

On Monday, for example, South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson, who became infamous for yelling “You lie!” at President Barack Obama during a speech to Congress in 2009, was himself confronted at a town hall by constituents

chanting, “You lie!”

As a result, some Republicans aren’t holding town halls. And some of those who are going ahead with such events are taking steps to keep things from getting out of control.

In Texas, Rep. John Culberson barred signs and noisemakers from a March 24 town hall, required those attending to prove they were constituents by showing utility bills or other documents, and insisted that questions be submitted in advance. He was still shouted down repeatedly by a crowd angry about the GOP push to repeal the Affordable Care Act. In Arkansas, Rep. French Hill will hold his first town hall of the year on Monday – but in the middle of the afternoon, and with the state’s Republican junior senator, Tom Cotton, at his side. Nevada’s Dean Heller, one of the more vulnerable GOP senators in 2018, will also hold his first town hall of 2017 on Monday, in the morning. And he, too, is apparently seeking safety in numbers by including Republican Rep. Mark Amodei.

Democrats, for their part, have felt the heat from anti-Trump constituents at town halls and also are taking precautions. Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris of California, for example, is banning signs at her town hall in Los

Celebrate

EASTER

Angeles next week.

Coffman is a politician perennially in the hot seat. His swing district has slightly more Democrats than Republicans, and he always is a top target in elections. For years, he has avoided town halls, instead holding private, one-on-one meetings with constituents during “office hours” at libraries in his district.

In January, one of those events was flooded by hundreds of constituents and activists who filled the library lobby, sang, chanted and demanded Coffman emerge from his private conversations to address them. The congressman ended up slipping out the back.

One of the rules for his Wednesday town hall was no standing in the aisles or blocking entrances and exits.

The contentious town hall was moderated by a local radio host Steffan Tubbs who voted for Coffman and urged hecklers to “respect the guidelines.” Coffman earned some cheers when he spoke of his support for rights for gays and immigrants.

But he also got a fair amount of scorn from those who contended he was not standing up enough to Trump.

“When I disagree with the president, I will speak out,” Coffman said in response to a pointed question about

his support for Trump-backed legislation. “But I’m not going to do it every day. ... Those of you on the extreme left will never be satisfied until Trump” leaves office.

Smadar Belkind Gerson, an activist in Coffman’s district who was helping to organize protests outside the town hall, said that she was glad Coffman moved to a more open format but that he has a long way to go. The event, she noted, was scheduled to last only an hour – although Coffman stayed for nearly a second hour – and Coffman’s staff planned to draw numbers to determine which constituent could ask questions.

“Yes, people are upset,” Gerson said. “But the more you do this and the more you restrict people, the more they will be upset.”

She noted that a Democratic state lawmaker who may challenge Coffman in 2018 planned to hold a town hall on the same campus Wednesday evening with no restrictions on attendance or questions.

Coffman held two town halls via telephone before Wednesday’s in-person event. Those appearances are far more controlled, with questions submitted in advance and an operator cutting off the questioner so the politician can respond.

Trump comments worry his populist base

By JULIE BYKOWICZ and JILL COLVIN The Associated Press

By CHRISTOPHER BODEEN and GERRY SHIH The Associated Press

AP file photo

White House chief strategist Steve Bannon (right) and others watch as President Donald Trump signs an executive order Jan. 23 in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington. President Donald Trump is distancing himself from chief strategist Steve Bannon, a move that has Bannon’s friends and allies worried the White House is about to lose its most important populist voice. coach.

Bannon, more than any other White House aide, speaks the language of Trump’s populist base. He spoke in February of “our sovereignty” as a country and about the new administration’s aim for “deconstruction of the administrative state.” He also helped write many of Trump’s hardest-line speeches.

“It would be a terrible signal if Trump were to either force Bannon out or let him go because he is the face of the national populism that inspired a lot of voter to vote for Trump,” said Ned Ryun, founder of the conservative group American Majority and a longtime friend of Bannon’s.

“And what makes it even worse right now,” Ryun added, “is that people have deep concerns about liberal New York Democrats associated with Goldman Sachs coming in and making strong moves at the White House.”

That view cuts to the core of why Bannon might be on the outs at the White House.

He’s feuded with Trump’s sonin-law-turned-senior-adviser, Jared Kushner, and with economic chief Gary Cohn. Both are New Yorkers who have voted for Democrats. Cohn, the former No. 2 at Goldman Sachs, and fellow Goldman executive Dina Powell,

one of Trump’s top national security advisers, have been gaining favor with the president.

Last week, Trump removed Bannon from the National Security Council, while Powell appears to be ascendant.

The president’s irritation with Bannon could have roots in the adviser’s high profile in the early days of the administration. Democrats waged a campaign to brand him as “President Bannon.” He appeared on Time magazine’s cover and was portrayed on “Saturday Night Live” as the Grim Reaper pulling the president’s strings.

Recently, the president has undercut Bannon in front of other senior staffers, including questioning the need for his presence in certain White House meetings.

Bannon is seen as increasingly isolated within the White House, particularly after the health care debacle. His hard-line sales pitch to the Freedom Caucus lawmakers – he told the Republicans that the White House-based legislation was not up for debate – was panned inside the West Wing as a major misstep that cost Trump votes. The original travel ban, a Bannon effort, is mired in the courts, and Trump appears to be backing away from some of the economic policies that Bannon championed.

BEIJING – Beijing is willing to work with Washington on ending North Korea’s nuclear weapons program but wants a peaceful solution to the escalating conflict, Chinese President Xi Jinping told President Donald Trump in a phone call Wednesday.

Xi’s comments came after Trump tweeted that China should do more on an issue that Washington sees as an increasingly urgent threat, or else the U.S. would go it alone.

China’s calls for calm come as tensions have risen with the dispatch of a U.S. aircraft carrier to the area and the deployment of thousands of U.S. and South Korean troops, tanks and other weaponry for their biggest-ever joint military exercises.

During their phone call, Xi told Trump that China is willing to continue working with the U.S. on denuclearization, according to a brief description of the call released by the Chinese foreign ministry.

“China insists on realizing the denuclearization of the peninsula, insists on maintaining peace and stability on the peninsula, and advocates resolving the problem through peaceful means,” Xi was quoted as saying.

The two leaders spoke Tuesday night Washington time after Trump said an “armada” of vessels including the USS Carl Vinson carrier was steaming to waters off the Korean Peninsula in a show of force.

Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said at a regular briefing in Beijing on Wednesday that it was a “good thing” that the two leaders were in touch again days after meeting in Florida.

Regarding the U.S. Navy strike force’s arrival in the western Pacific, Lu said: “We hope all parties will refrain from irresponsible actions that would be very dangerous at the moment.”

North Korean state media has warned of a nuclear attack on the United States in retaliation for any signs of aggression, a threat that has been made numerous times before.

Earlier Tuesday, Trump suggested that the U.S. could “solve” the North Korea issue unilaterally.

• Thursday, April 13, 2017

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump has declared: “I am my own strategist.” That would seem to bode poorly for his actual strategist, Steve Bannon.

And Trump now appears to be publicly distancing himself.

In an interview with The New York Post, the president said “I like Steve” and called his adviser “a good guy” – but one who wasn’t really all that involved with his winning election campaign. He said his warring senior officials, including Bannon, must “straighten it out or I will.” In a second interview with The Wall Street Journal, he dismissively called Bannon “a guy who works for me.”

The unusual public, lukewarm support from the boss has Bannon’s friends and advisers worried he will soon be out of a job. But shedding Bannon would be no simple staff shakeup. More than any other member of Trump’s orbit, the former media executive and radio host, known as a bare-knuckles political fighter, has a following all his own. He is viewed by many in the conservative core as the ideological backbone in a White House run by a president who boasts of his flexibility.

“I think it’s important to recognize the value of the base. It’s important to recognize the base sees their advocate in Steve Bannon,” said Michael Caputo, a former Trump campaign adviser who has known the president for decades.

Bannon is not the only Trump official to find himself in the hot seat in a White House divided. Press Secretary Sean Spicer has also come under fire for comments he made about the Holocaust on Tuesday. Spicer has apologized repeatedly, including on Wednesday, and the White House hopes that controversy will pass.

As for Bannon, before joining the campaign last summer as its chief executive officer, he was informally advising Trump. And as leader of the conservative Breitbart News he spent the better part of a year connecting Trump with the populist, nationalist voters who would propel him to victory over 16 Republican opponents and Democrat Hillary Clinton.

In more than half a dozen interviews during the campaign with Bannon on Breitbart’s radio show, Trump laid out his vision for leading the country, with Bannon sometimes playing the role of

United against United Airlines It may be time to “re-accommodate” Oscar Munoz, chief executive of United Airlines. He might be “re-accommodated” in a different industry – mixed martial arts, for example, or corrections.

It was Munoz, formerly hailed as a modern-day corporate mastermind and communications clairvoyant for having spiffed up United’s once-pitiable record of customer service, who apologized for having to “re-accommodate” four passengers on a Chicago-to-Louisville flight Sunday. Never mind that one of the passengers was manhandled and bloodied by airport police, acting at the behest of United personnel, after he declined to be “re-accommodated” by giving up his reserved, paid-for seat. That passenger finally received a full apology Tuesday from Munoz, 48 hours after he was dragged off the plane with his glasses askew.

Video of that incident, shot by other passengers, instantly went viral, prompting Munoz’s clueless statement, in which he also promised to reach out to the passenger. Even as he was tut-tutting at what he called the “upsetting event” on Flight 3411, Munoz, who has made a great show during his tenure of redefining his airline as a “people business,” was sending an altogether different message internally. Openly blaming the victim, he assured United personnel in a letter, quickly leaked, that “I emphatically stand behind all of you” and that it was the “disruptive and belligerent” passenger who had invited the assault upon him by refusing to yield his seat to one of the airline’s own employees, who needed to get to Louisville.

The victim was Asian-American, fueling the video’s virality in China, where it has been seized upon by untold millions, at the urging of state media and others, as evidence of anti-Asian bias in the United States and Washington’s hypocrisy on human rights.

It is a fact of life, and of Supreme Court precedent, that airlines may bump passengers from overbooked flights. Usually, passengers go voluntarily, lured by cash or voucher incentives offered by the airline. In some cases, they do not. Scarcely 1 out of every 10,000 United passengers was involuntarily given the heaveho during a five-year stretch ending last year, according to the Transportation Department.

That may be legal, but there is no excuse for allowing a passenger to be mauled. The airport police officer who dragged the passenger from his seat, suspended for now, should face discipline. And one would have thought that further sweeteners might have coaxed one or two more customers from their seats. Munoz now is in damage-control mode following his initial response, vowing “to fix what’s broken” by reviewing the airline’s policies on summoning police, transferring crew and handling overbooked flights “so this never happens again.” Nice that he plans to avoid a repetition of an event that was utterly avoidable in the first place.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Internet privacy legislation worth the effort Internet privacy is among the latest hot-button debates, in part, because of a likely rollback of Obama-era privacy protections that were supposed to take place later this year.

That got the attention of some Illinois lawmakers who are looking to implement internet safeguards at the state level, including one that would allow people to find out what companies such as Google and Facebook have collected on them and which third parties they share it with.

We think that is a good idea.

Most people don’t understand how a lot of this works, but just about everyone recoils at the thought of their privacy being invaded. With the internet, it is happening more and more frequently.

Surveillance of one kind or another has become the business model of the internet.

Last fall, the Federal Communications Commission ruled that if internet service providers

want to collect and sell personal information, such as your browsing history, they needed to get your permission first – that is, ask you to “opt-in” to their data-sharing programs.

But the GOP-led Congress voted to revoke the opt-in provision and President Trump signed the resolution last week.

Supporters of protections like Illinois is considering – a House committee has endorsed the measure – say they are needed because of what is going on in D.C. The federal regulations would place restrictions on what companies such as Comcast and Verizon can do with information, including user search histories, but not websites.

Privacy advocates say the move sends a clear signal that it’s up to individual states to step into this “right to know” debate and try to correct it.

Not surprisingly, the tech industry is largely against the proposed requirements, saying they would burden companies

with an unnecessary layer of regulation and compliance costs, while stifling innovation.

Supporters of the Illinois bill disagree, contending that similar requirements in the European Union and in California, which enacted a similar measure in 2000, have not hurt business.

It’s no surprise that the American Civil Liberties Union’s Illinois chapter is backing the bill, telling The Associated Press that such legislation is needed to address the now “razor-thin” division between government and private entities that can sell data to federal agencies.

In the end, maybe this ship has sailed. Maybe there is no good way to protect our basic privacy because the internet has become such a pervasive part of our everyday lives. But efforts like the one in Illinois is worth it, if for no other reason than to initiate a dialogue over our threatened right to privacy.

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.

Special to the Washington Post

Moscow always rejected the argument that Assad’s policies were producing the very sort of Islamist extremism that it claimed to be fighting. Russian officials continued to tell us they were not Assad’s protectors, but quickly and more importantly added that it was not up to us to choose Syria’s government and that they had no intention of pushing him out.

Those who put faith then in the hope that Moscow would come around – or who may now be thinking that is the way forward – overlook the depth of Russia’s perceived self-interest in keeping Assad in power. First, the very concept of regime change is anathema to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Whether in Iraq, Georgia, Ukraine or Libya, Putin has vehemently opposed the notion that if local populations did not like their governments they could take up arms against them until the United States and its allies -- Russia’s geopolitical enemies – came to their rescue. Putin’s hostility toward Clinton – and part of the reason he intervened in the U.S. elections to ensure her defeat – was due to his paranoid fear that regime change was what she had in mind when she criticized Russia’s flawed parliamentary election in December 2011. Putin will do everything he can to ensure that Syria does not set a precedent that might invite others in the region – or even someday in Moscow – to use violence to overthrow their rulers.

The second reason Moscow is so

hostile to regime change in Syria is that it believes – in this case not without merit – that it would not result in a stable, pro-Western regime (“bad enough” from Moscow’s perspective) but rather, that it would lead only to more chaos, instability and extremism.

On this point, Russians are probably sincere when they say that they have no love lost for Assad but that they vastly prefer him to the Sunni extremists they are certain would take over Damascus – or at least fight each other for control – if Assad actually fell.

In interviews over the weekend, Tillerson said he hoped Moscow was “thinking carefully about its continued alliance with Bashar al-Assad.”

National security adviser H.R. McMaster expressed his hope that “Russia could be part of the solution” if it could “reevaluate” what it is doing.

The problem is that Russia knows exactly what it is doing, and it is highly determined to keep on doing it. As the Trump administration looks to change Moscow’s calculus, it had better understand that it will take a lot more than a single set of missile strikes to do so.

IT’S YOUR WRITE

Love thy neighbor

To the Editor: I drove through Richmond last Saturday (March 18) and found myself smiling at the irony of seeing a group of people on the church steps downtown in front of a big sign touting their belief that “1 man + 1 woman = marriage.”

It was ironic because I was en route to my cousin’s baby shower in town. She and her wife will welcome twins in a few weeks. Many friends and family members, of course, were there, and most are church-going believers who live the true tenets of Christianity: “love thy neighbor, do unto others,” etc.

In our family, everyone is loved and respected, regardless of whom we choose to love. My partner of 32 years and I (four years as legally married spouses) have been supported by our family for all of these years, no guilt-tripping or sermons about what a marriage is or should be. They love the Lord, and they also love and accept us. The two are not mutually exclusive.

As a journalism teacher for 30 years, I respect the First Amendment above all others. Stand on steps and try to convince me and others I’m a sinner all you want, that my cousin and her wife are sinners, that everyone who is not in a heterosexual relationship are sinners. It is your right to do so. I, and a majority of Americans, just don’t happen to agree with you. And I don’t think Jesus would either.

Hultgren selective on info

To the Editor: I did not see anything in the Northwest Herald about Rep. Randy Hultgren voting YES for internet companies to sell your browser information to the highest bidder.

So much for our personal rights.

The biggest reason seems to be the big-money internet companies like Comcast threw big money at politicians like Rep. Hultgren. I was doubly bothered that

I emailed Rep. Hultgren asking him how he intended to vote and what he thought on the issue. I received no response. This seems to follow a pattern for Rep. Hultgren.

He controls the information he releases to us. Lots of information on his website about slave trafficking and heroin use, important topics, yes ... but nothing on the internet legislation or the Russian investigation or the attack on the environment.

When his constituents request a question-and-answer with him, the answer is

no. However, I am guessing if a lobbyist from the communication companies wanted a sit down, there would be open doors.

You can find out how Rep. Hultgren votes and where he gets his money at votesmart. org.

The Trump administration’s Syria policy continues to evolve in remarkable, even head-spinning ways. In the past two weeks alone, President Trump has pivoted from resolutely opposing U.S. military intervention to ordering missile strikes, and from acceptance of Syrian President Bashar Assad remaining in power to a renewed focus on getting rid of him.

Now a third shoe may be about to drop. As Secretary of State Rex Tillerson arrives for his visit in Moscow, the administration is signaling that Trump may be preparing to pivot from an approach that prioritizes working with Russia in Syria to one that presses Moscow to help with Assad’s removal.

This was the strategy spelled out by top administration officials over the weekend, with U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley explaining that we would not see peace in Syria or the region “with Assad as the head of the regime” or “with Russia covering up for Assad.” On Monday, a spokesman for British Prime Minister Theresa May put out a statement asserting that May and Trump had agreed that “a window of opportunity now exists in which to persuade Russia that its alliance with Assad is no longer in its strategic interest.”

Getting rid of Assad is a desirable goal given the horrors he has inflicted on his population and the region, and

getting Russia to split with him would help accomplish that goal given Assad’s dependence on Moscow. The problem, however, is there is almost no prospect that Russia will go along with U.S. pleas for such assistance, no matter how much pressure Tillerson seeks to exert. The reality is that if Washington wants to get rid of Assad, it’s going to have to do so over Russia, not with it.

This conclusion should be obvious from years of painful U.S. experience that carries lessons for Trump. As the assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs, I joined then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for countless meetings with her Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, focused on getting Russia to drop its support for Assad. The closest we came was at the U.N.-sponsored Geneva talks in 2012, when we succeeded in getting an agreement on a transitional Syrian government whose leaders would be chosen by “mutual consent.” For the United States and our European and Arab allies, that phrase meant only if the opposition agreed, and so Assad had to go. But Lavrov quickly claimed that “mutual consent” meant that Assad also had to agree, which meant he was staying.

Clinton’s successor, John Kerry, faced similar Russian obstructionism when trying to win Russian support for getting beyond Assad. Even as U.S. support for the opposition increased, the civil war dragged on and the costs of Russia’s support for Assad mounted,

Cars and SUVs get more pep in their step

By TOM KRISHER

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Fred Croatti often drives his silver Dodge Charger Hellcat to the grocery store, turning heads as he rumbles through the parking lot with a supercharged 6.2-Liter 707-horsepower engine.

Although Croatti’s car sounds like a NASCAR racer, the retired pilot from Port Orange, Florida, isn’t looking for attention. He just loves the power.

“The visceral effect of the air, the sound,” he said. “All you’ve got to do is tickle the gas a little bit and the hairs on the back of your head stand up.”

At a time when mainstream and luxury cars look similar inside and out, buyers such as Croatti are hungry for sound and speed, and car companies are happy to oblige.

On Tuesday night, Fiat Chrysler’s Dodge brand used explosions, burnouts and a small drag strip to ramp up horsepower even more. Ahead of the press days of the New York auto show, Dodge rolled out the 840-horsepower Demon Challenger, which FCA said is the fastest and most powerful production car made.

The horsepower craze isn’t limited to big cars or domestic automakers.

In New York, Honda’s 306-horsepower compact Civic Type R will make its U.S. debut. Mercedes will roll out two new AMG high-performance vehicles including the AMG GLC63 Coupe with a 469-horsepower 4-Liter V-8 twin turbo engine. Both can go zero-to-60 mph in

The Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo is shown Wednesday during a media preview at the New York International Auto Show at the Jacob Javits Center in New York. under four seconds. Porsche’s 911 GT3 will make its North American debut with total output of 500 horsepower.

With the exploding popularity of SUVs, the craze extends there, too. One of the Mercedes AMGs is an SUV. Last week Chevrolet rolled out the Tahoe RST with a 420-horsepower version of the Corvette V-8 and a zero-to-60 mph time of 5.7 seconds, unheard of previously for a truck-based vehicle. Not to be outdone, Fiat Chrysler unveiled Sunday a 707-horsepower Jeep Grand Cherokee, which it said is the fastest SUV ever with a zero-to-60 time of 3.5

seconds and a top speed of 180 mph.

Horsepower has risen so high that some experts are proclaiming a new “golden age of muscle cars” that far outpace the first generation from the 1960s.

“Horsepower is actually creeping up on every single car across the board,” said Tim Kuniskis, head of FCA’s Street and Racing Technology unit, who on Tuesday introduced the Demon – along with “The Fast and the Furious” actor Vin Diesel. “A lot of it is due to the fact that we have the technology that allows you to have the power now and not have any downside,”

such as poor handling or reliability problems.

The Demon can go from zero to 60 mph in only 2.3 seconds. That beats electric car maker Tesla Motors’ Model S P100D sedan, which hits 60 in 2.5 seconds.

The Demon is street legal, but it’s also made with special parts allowing it to run on a drag strip. And run it does. The car can do the quarter-mile in 9.65 seconds, hitting 140 mph. Ordinary muscle cars cover the same distance in 11 or 12 seconds.

Back in the 1960s, muscle cars had little other than power. Drivers had to be skilled because the cars handled and braked poorly, said Randy Dye, owner of the Dodge dealership in Daytona Beach.

Croatti bought his Charger there, and has ordered a Demon from Dye. “The brakes were just a little bit better than Fred Flintstone,” a cartoon character from the cave-man era who halted his car with bare feet, Dye said.

The new generation has sophisticated suspensions and performance tires for better handling, and the brakes are beefed up, making the cars easier for the average person to use. “You don’t have to be a NASCAR driver or Formula One driver or Indy car driver,” Dye said. Even the base version of many cars has a lot of oomph. The base Charger with a 3.6-Liter V6 has almost 300 horsepower.

Car enthusiasts say the first golden age ended when new pollution controls were required in the early 1970s, and horsepower dropped until recently.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT THURSDAY, APRIL 13, 2017

HELSINKI – Shia LaBeouf’s latest stunt is to spend a month isolated in a cabin in Finland’s remote Lapland region with his only communication with the outside world coming via text message to visitors to a Helsinki museum.

The project is called #ALONETOGETHER and involves the other two members of the actor’s art collective, Nastja Ronkko and Luke Turner. Ronkko and Turner are also spending time isolated in separate cabins in Lapland beginning Wednesday.

Visitors to the Kiasama museum in Helsinki can visit a cabin and send a text to LaBeouf, Ronkko and Turner, who can respond to visitors but can’t talk to one another.

Christian Bale signed on to play Dick Cheney in biopic

Harry Connick Jr. participates in the “Harry” panel Aug. 3 during the NBC Television Critics Association summer press tour in Beverly Hills, Calif. Connick will sing the national anthem at the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on May 6.

Harry Connick Jr. to sing national anthem at Derby LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Harry Connick Jr. knows his way around a racetrack, having watched the horses with his dad at Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans.

The Grammy and Emmy award-winning entertainer will make it to horse racing’s biggest stage next month when he sings the national anthem at the Kentucky Derby.

The jazzman, actor and former “American Idol” judge will perform the anthem in the Derby Winner’s Circle at Churchill Downs on May 6. His performance before more than 160,000 fans will be broadcast live as part of NBC’s coverage of the 143rd running of the Derby.

Connick, who has performed the anthem at the Super Bowl and World Series, said it will be his first time at the Derby. He’s also scheduled to perform this spring at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival – the annual celebration of music known as Jazz Fest.

“I’ve played in front of some pretty big crowds, but I’m sure this one will be one of the best,” he said of his Churchill Downs gig.

Churchill’s invitation was popular with another member of his family.

“My wife, Jill, has always wanted to go to the Kentucky Derby,” he said. “That was an easy ‘yes.’ ” He has some deep family connections to horse racing in his hometown of New Orleans. “My dad is a huge race fan,” he said. “I have nice memories of going to the Fair Grounds with him.”

Connick will be the ninth artist to perform the anthem since Churchill Downs started the tradition in 2009.

NEW YORK – Christian Bale said Wednesday that he will play Dick Cheney in Adam McKay’s upcoming biopic of the former vice president.

Bale was last week reported as being in talks to join the film that will reteam him with McKay after 2015’s Oscar-nominated “The Big Short.” The Oscar winner confirmed he has signed up to star in the untitled film in an interview with The Associated Press.

“In the same way as it was a journey of discovery with ‘The Big Short,’ Adam was able to take a story that most people would go comatose listening to,” said Bale of the script penned by McKay. “His ability to make it startling and entertaining and intelligent without compromising anything – he’s masterful at doing that.”

The film is also to star Steve Carell (who also co-starred in “The Big Short”) as the former defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld. Amy Adams is set to play Lynne Cheney, the former vice president’s wife.

Josh Brolin set to play Cable in ‘Deadpool 2’

LOS ANGELES – Josh Brolin is expanding his comic book movie repertoire.

Representatives for the actor said Wednesday that Brolin has been set to play the part of Cable in 20th Century Fox’s “Deadpool 2” opposite lead Ryan Reynolds.

Brolin also plays the supervillain Thanos in various “Avengers” movies for competing studio Disney.

Michael Shannon had been widely rumored to be the top pick for the Deadpool co-star.

“Deadpool” became a breakout hit in 2016, grossing over $783 million worldwide. The irreverent and very R-rated comic book film even became an unlikely awards contender late in the game with two Golden Globe nominations and a Directors Guild of America Award nomination for Tim Miller. David Leitch is directing the sequel, which is expected to hit theaters sometime in 2018.

Law to play Dumbledore in ‘Fantastic Beasts’ sequel

NEW YORK – Jude Law will play young Albus Dumbledore in the next “Fantastic Beasts” installment.

Warner Bros. announced the casting Tuesday. The iconic wizard was played by two actors in the “Harry Potter” films, beginning with Richard Harris. After his death in 2002, Michael Gambon inherited the role.

J.K. Rowling, who has said Dumbledore is gay, has previously teased that the five-part prequel franchise of “Fantastic Beasts” will explore a more “troubled” time in Dumbledore’s life. The author said, “We’ll see him at that formative period of his life.

As far as his sexuality is concerned, watch this space.”

TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS Actor Lyle Waggoner is 82. Actor Edward Fox is 80. Actor Paul Sorvino is 78. Singer Lester Chambers of The Chambers Brothers is 77. Musician Jack Casady of Jefferson Airplane is 73.

26 Exercise, diet help reduce risk for vascular dementia Dear Doctor: My dad has just been diagnosed with vascular dementia. What is it?

Can it be prevented?

Dear Reader: Dementia is a general term used to categorize symptoms that relate to the decline or loss of cognitive function.

These include confusion, memory loss, impaired language skills, changes in personality or behavior, and the inability to think clearly or perform everyday tasks. The most common cause of dementia is Alzheimer’s disease, which accounts for between 60 and 80 percent of all dementia cases. The mental impairment of Alzheimer’s disease results from a series of complex changes that take place within the structure of the brain itself.

Vascular dementia, which also is called vascular cognitive impairment, causes the majority of non-Alzheimer’s cases of dementia. It occurs when the blood vessels in the body, known as the vascular system, become blocked, diseased or damaged, and are unable to provide the brain with normal blood flow. This deprives the brain of adequate oxygen and nutrition, which causes brain cells to die. The resulting injury, which prevents different parts of the brain from communicating with one another, causes symptoms of dementia.

Hardening and narrowing of the arteries, a major stroke or a series of small strokes can cause vascular dementia. In the case of major stroke, symptoms of vascular dementia can appear suddenly.

But quite often, the disease builds slowly.

As blood flow to the brain decreases, mental impairment gradually becomes more pronounced.

At this time, vascular dementia cannot be reversed, but there are steps you can take to reduce your risk of developing it.

Although the disease is rare before age 65, the cardiovascular problems that led to it can begin to develop well before then.

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Elizabeth Ko and Eve Glazier One of the major risk factors for vascular dementia is high blood pressure, which also plays a role in heart attack and stroke.

That’s why it’s important to know your numbers, and to monitor blood pressure on a regular basis.

To reduce blood pressure, maintain a healthy weight. It’s also wise to keep track of your waistline measurements. Men who measure more than 40 inches at the waist and women whose waistlines measure more than 35 inches are at increased risk of developing high blood pressure.

Get moving. Regular exercise has been shown to reduce the risk of vascular dementia by 40 percent. Just 30 minutes of exercise at moderate intensity – you’ll be able to speak but not sing – three times a week helps protect both your heart and your brain.

If you’ve been following this column for even a few weeks you know what’s coming next – don’t smoke. If you do smoke, please stop. Yes, we know that’s hard. We also know your family doctor would love to help you.

Eat a healthy diet: lean meats, fresh fish, legumes, whole grains, seeds, nuts, and plenty of fruits and vegetables. Skip the sugar if you can. Limit simple carbs such as pasta, rice, bread and processed cereals.

Limit how much alcohol you drink. Even in moderation, alcohol has been linked to dementia risk, particularly as we get older.

• 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.

She understands that I will always grieve for the wife I lost, and she has always shown respect for the way I show my grief. My question is, should I stop buying flowers to honor my first wife once my fiancée and I get married and move into a house of our own? I want her to know she holds the No. 1 place in my heart. – Time To Move On

Dear Abby:

DEAR ABBY Could you explain to me why, Jeanne as a species, men Phillips are so blind and stupid? There are millions of smart, funny, sweet, attractive – even sexy – eligible women to whom men do not give a second glance, or even acknowledge these wonderful women exist. Then, these clueless guys moan about how they can’t find a good woman, can’t find love, have a hard time getting sex, etc., when there are scores of potentially awesome partners right under their noses! Why don’t men ever grow up? Even men in their 40s, 50s and 60s suffer from the same stupidity about the dating scene as teenage boys. I repeat: Why?! – Eligible

RICHMOND – Abby Hayden figured a pitch on the outer half of the plate was coming her way.

After grounding out to first base in two of her previous three at-bats against Woodstock North’s Ellie Thurow, the Richmond-Burton second baseman knew another grounder to first likely would be all her team needed to pull out a victory with the potential winning run standing 60 feet away.

“I was just trying to make contact, because there was only one out, and any contact at all would score the run,” Hayden said. “I knew her pitch rotation. She went outside, inside, outside, inside, so I was looking for the outside pitch when she came set.”

Hayden was correct, taking an 0-2 pitch to the right side of the infield.

Pinch runner Bella Spittler broke for home, scoring from third base as the throw from Tess Schultz at first base bounced off catcher Taeya Beard’s glove to give the Rockets a 4-3 Kishwaukee River Conference victory in nine innings.

“It was exciting and cold,” Hayden, a sophomore, said of the nine-inning game. “We were just trying to get out with a win.”

Ashley Turner led off the bottom of the ninth with a single to right field.

Spittler, a freshman, pinch ran for Turner, and the next batter, freshman Peyton Bannon, sacrificed her from first to third with a bunt up the firstbase line.

Spittler never stopped running as the Thunder (4-5, 0-2 KRC) retired Bannon at first base, sliding into third and beating the return throw from first.

“That was fantastic. They always get frustrated when you put on the bunt sign and they can’t hit,” Rockets coach Vicki Klopf said. “I’m glad that they battled. They didn’t give up, which sometimes we have an issue with. ... To have a freshman come off the bench, pinch run and end up scoring, that was great.”

Junior pitcher Sophie Schwegel earned the win for R-B (4-4, 2-1 KRC), tossing all nine innings. She struck out 12 and walked four, giving up two earned runs on five hits.

The only real damage against Schwegel came off the bat of Woodstock North third baseman Chloe Vermett, who smacked a pair of home runs over

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE q UNSUNG HERO

Peyton Bannon Richmond-Burton, fr., SS

Bannon played flawlessly in the infield, snagging a liner at short with a runner on first base and two out in the top of the ninth inning. She then came through with a key sacrifice bunt in the bottom half to set up the winning run.

q THE NUMBER

3

Home runs by Woodstock North’s Chloe Vermett this season, tying her own season school record set last year

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Woodstock North is playing without two key starters. Senior shortstop Lulu Nicks is out with a shoulder injury, and sophomore first baseman Mackenzie Spung is out with an ACL injury. the left-field fence.

Vermett gave her team a 2-1 lead in the top of the fourth inning with a two-run homer after the leadoff hitter reached on an error. She then led off the sixth with a homer, tying the score at 3.

She also hit a home run in North’s 8-7 loss to Johnsburg on Tuesday. With two homers against R-B, she tied her own school record for home runs in a season with three.

Schwegel, who had an RBI single in the first inning, roped a go-ahead triple into right field with two outs in the fifth to score Kaitie Regnier. Regnier (3 for 4, two runs scored, RBI) drove in Rachael Hayden, hitting an RBI single before Schwegel’s at-bat.

“I heard (a Woodstock North) coach scoot her in, and say, ‘She won’t hit it over,’” Schwegel said of her triple. “So I just tried to aim it over there, because I usually pull the ball.”

Thurow was equally impressive in the circle for the Thunder. The sophomore scattered nine hits over 81/3 innings, striking out 13 and walking none.

Two of the four runs were unearned.

“Both pitchers were on, and we made a few mistakes here and there,” Thunder coach Pete Riis said. “We had a few mental errors today that we need to clean up a little bit. We didn’t quit, and that’s the main thing today. We played hard all the way through.”

McHENRY BOYS BASKETBALL

Former McHenry player was 3-year assistant under Paddock, who resigned

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com

Barry Burmeister

McHenry athletic director, on Chris Madson’s promotion to head basketball coach ter introduced Madson to the players Wednesday before school.

“I was looking for a quality person to lead the future of our boys basketball program,” Burmeister said. “I really didn’t have to look too far to find him because he was right here in our family already.

“He’s a McHenry guy. He went to our school, played at our program. He played at the highest level when he was here.”

Madson takes over for Paddock, who resigned after 13 seasons. The Warriors went 18-12 last season, their best in Paddock’s tenure. Paddock was 144-222 in his 13 seasons, winning re-

gional titles in 2009 and 2012.

Madson had flashbacks when Burmeister introduced him to the team Wednesday.

“I remember in eighth grade when Coach Paddock came here and talked to us,” Madson said. “The full circle of it is phenomenal. When you’re from the community, it gives you that little kick to go above 100 percent on everything you do.”

Madson played three years of college ball at Division III Lake Forest College, where he was a team captain and won a Midwest Conference basketball title in 2011.

During his sophomore year, he returned home and played at McHenry County College for one season. That’s when Paddock set him up with the Jr. Warriors coaching gig. He coached returning varsity starters Gavin Markgraff, Gio Calabrese and Maki Mohr, among others.

Those players came to watch him play at Lake Forest during his junior and senior seasons, and he returned to watch them play when he could. He is thankful to Paddock – whom he still calls “coach” – for bringing him back

as a varsity assistant out of college.

Madson and next year’s seniors look to keep raising the bar at McHenry.

“Making it to the regional championship (last season) was a great experience for them,” Madson said. “The bar again needs to be raised for the next coming year. For them, their sights are on regionals and the Fox Valley championship.”

Madson lives in McHenry and teaches at McHenry West. His fiancée, Lexi Stray, is a dance coach at Crystal Lake Central. Madson teaches social science and next year will spend part of his time coaching digital literacy for teachers, helping them use technology in the classroom.

Burmeister, who was the McHenry boys basketball coach from 2000 to 2004, said Madson’s age was never a knock against his chances to land the job.

“He’s a good, young coach,” Burmeister said. “I’m excited for Chris, but more importantly I’m excited for the players, the school and the whole community because of what Chris brings to the table as a head coach.”

SOFTBALL: WOODSTOCK NORTH 10, MARENGO 4

Big 1st inning sends Thunder to KRC victory Woodstock N. puts 4 runs on board before Marengo’s first at-bat

By TIM SIECK

sports@nwherald.com MARENGO – One thing that has plagued the Marengo baseball team all season is giving up free bases to its opponents. Wednesday’s game against Woodstock North followed that plot right from the start.

The Thunder scored four runs in the first inning, courtesy of three wild pitches, a balk, two walks and two hits. Woodstock North never trailed, as the Thunder defeated Marengo for the second day in a row, 10-4, in a Kishwaukee River Conference game.

Marengo (3-7, 0-3 KRC) did respond in the bottom of the first. The Indians sent seven to the plate and scored

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE q UNSUNG HERO

Nate Harris

Woodstock North, sr., SS

Harris reached base four times to help lead the Thunder offense and also made several plays at shortstop to help lead the defense.

q THE NUMBER

24

Strikeouts for Woodstock North pitchers in the first two games of the series.

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Marengo’s Dylan Bruens made his varsity debut on the mound Wednesday and bounced back nicely after a rough first inning. The junior allowed only three hits in his four innings of work and finished with six strikeouts. three runs on three hits with RBIs by Cody Wilcox and Jake LaSota. Brandon Amann entered the game for the Thunder in the second inning and

gave Woodstock North a solid outing in relief.

“We scored some early runs and kind of gave some back in the first inning,” Amann said. “I was able to come in and throw strikes. Marengo has a good lineup and I was able to stay focused and keep us ahead.”

Amann picked up the victory in relief, going five innings and allowing just one run on two hits. The senior also finished with six strikeouts including five in his first two innings.

The Thunder (10-2, 5-0) put the game out of reach in the fifth when they scored four runs on four hits.

Colin Ritter and Nicco Mazzanti picked up RBIs in the fifth inning for the Thunder.

“We did a really nice job of seeing a lot of pitches early and were able to elevate pitch counts,“ Woodstock North coach John Oslovich said. “All season we have played well in the second half of games and we did that again today.”

The Thunder were led by Nate Harris, who reached base four times from the leadoff spot and scored twice. Zach Johnson added a two-run double for the Thunder, and Mazzanti finished with two hits and an RBI. Marengo made the game close early but couldn’t overcome the four runs Woodstock North scored in the first inning. The Indians were led by LaSota, who finished with two hits and an RBI, and Matthew Meranda, who reached base three times and had a hit and stolen base. Jarrett Burno was solid in relief for Marengo with two scoreless innings and three strikeouts.

“Once again we gave up too many free bases, and it cost us,” Marengo coach Josh Maas said. “When you give up free bases, it only takes one hit to do damage. I was happy with how we responded offensively after giving up the four runs early. We just need to stop giving up so many free bases.”

• Thursday, April 13, 2017

The first basketball team Chris Madson ever coached was a Jr. Warriors team during the 2010-11 season that had struggled the year before.

“We had a massively successful season,” Madson recalled. “I guess the season before that they didn’t win a game. We won our first game, and the place went crazy. I Chris Madson didn’t know what was going on.”

Madson will coach many of those same players during their senior season next year. He was named McHenry’s boys basketball coach Wednesday.

The 26-year-old served as an assistant to former head coach Tim Paddock for the previous three seasons and played three years of varsity ball at McHenry. He is a former Northwest Herald All-Area performer and helped the program secure its first regional title in 31 years as a senior in 2008-09.

Athletic director Barry Burmeis-

“He’s a McHenry guy. He went to our school, played at our program. He played at the highest level when he was here.”

Bulls sneak into playoffs with rout

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – It won’t happen anytime soon.

Definitely not in the wake of beating Brooklyn’s junior varsity squad, 112-73, on Wednesday night to earn a playoff berth and crawl into the final spot of the Eastern Conference playoffs with a 41-41 record.

Gar Forman has more tact than that.

However, the next time Forman feels pushed into a corner or his competency as Bulls general manager again comes into question, he’ll play the playoff card and let everyone know that his franchise has now reached the postseason in eight of the past nine years.

No titles, not even a Finals appearance, but sustained mediocrity at its finest.

Meanwhile, the big loser of the NBA’s regular-season finale? Miami, who finished tied with the Bulls at 41-41, but lost out on the tiebreaker.

Almost lost in what took place for the Bulls on Wednesday was the fact that veteran Dwyane Wade will again be in the playoffs, while his former team down on South Beach missed out.

Wade left the Heat this offseason after 13 years, joining the Bulls as a free agent, but playoff hopes looked dim after the veteran dislocated his elbow back on March 15, and was expected to miss the rest of the regular season.

It was then that he told Butler to do whatever he could in his power to will this team to the playoffs so that Wade could return.

Butler did just that, carrying the Bulls to a 7-4 record without Wade, welcoming the three-time champion back for the final three games.

That was exactly part of the conversation. He is.

He’s all of that. But he’s always been that guy. Even when he was a rookie, he was kind of like that.”

Lackey needed every bit of that edge to work out of early trouble. Andrew Toles led off the game with a line-drive home run to right field. The ball was hit too low to be stopped by a cold wind.

WHITE SOX 2, INDIANS 1

Holland takes no-hitter into 6th; Sox even series

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

CLEVELAND – Chris Sale is gone, Carlos Rodon is hurt, and the White Sox’s starting rotation is … just fine?

Indeed. Better than fine, in fact, as left-hander Derek Holland was in the Sox’s 2-1 victory Wednesday against the Indians at Progressive Field.

Signed to a one-year deal in the offseason to cover innings left by the traded Sale, Holland pitched six frames of two-run ball in his Sox debut against the Twins on Friday at Guaranteed Rate Field, and topped that with six innings of scoreless, one-hit work against the defending American League champions. He pitched around four walks, striking out four.

Since Jose Quintana served up three homers and lost to the Tigers on Open-

ing Day, Sox starters Holland, James Shields, Quintana and Miguel Gonzalez have made good on six straight winnable starts, posting a 2.06 ERA. “That’s good,” Holland said. “We feed off each other.’’

The bullpen has been pretty good, too, ranking second in the AL in ERA going into Wednesday’s game.

A n t h o n y S w a r z a k Derek Holland pitched a perfect seventh with two strikeouts in his Sox debut, Nate Jones kept a potential big inning at one run in the eighth and David Robertson pitched a perfect ninth.

The win, following a 2-1 loss in 10 innings in the Indians’ home opener Tuesday, improved the Sox record to 3-4. Holland, an Ohio native, lowered

his career ERA in the Indians’ park to 1.02, the lowest of any visiting pitcher there with at least 30 innings of work.

He is 1-1 with a 1.50 ERA. “He continues to try to pound the zone, and he’s been able to keep them off-balance,” manager Rick Renteria said. “He is spotting his fastball very well and his secondary pitches have been very good.”

This start had special meaning for Holland because his grandmother, Pat Henderson, who died during spring training, saw him pitch for the last time here.

Holland said he will write “Granny” in the dirt on the back side of the mound in all of his starts this season.

“I love pitching here. This is where I’m from,” he said. “This game meant a lot more to me. This is where she got to see me pitch for the last time.”

Holland had all sorts of things, emotional and otherwise, racing through his mind. When Francisco Lindor stepped up to lead off the Indians’ sixth, the scoreboard showed Holland finishing his warm-up tosses and read, “Derek Holland, currently pitching a no-hitter.” If you believe in jinxes, there goes your proof: Lindor lined his 83rd pitch to the left-center field gap for a double.

“I saw it,” Holland said. “You got to do what you got to do to break it up. I understand. I had fans yelling at me from the fourth on, telling me ‘Hey you got a no-hitter.’ I was like, ‘Thank you Captain Obvious. I kind of know that.’ ” Indians right-hander Danny Salazar was about as good, if not better, than Holland, striking out 11 and allowing less hard contact than Holland in six innings.

CHICAGO – On the way to a world championship last year, Cubs pitcher John Lackey uttered one of the best lines of the season.

“I didn’t come here for a haircut,” he said. “I came here for jewelry.”

Lackey’s locks got trimmed during the offseason, and he did get his jewelry Wednesday night before pitching against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Wrigley Field.

The Cubs received their rings for winning the 2016 World Series. Lackey picked his up before heading out to the bullpen to warm up. He allowed a homer to start the game, and the Dodgers went on to win, 2-0, getting another run in the ninth.

During his postgame news conference, Lackey was wearing the ring.

“It’s heavy, man, it’s really nice,” he said. “Seriously, I’m fortunate enough to have a couple more, but this is kind of the next level for sure. I think the whole team, to the (owning) Ricketts family, we want to say thanks. It’s pretty sick.”

The Cubs signed Lackey to a twoyear deal in December 2015, and one of the reasons they got him was to provide the club with a little edginess.

Lackey can be a mite prickly at times, but the Cubs felt they needed that type of spice.

“We thought that from the beginning,” manager Joe Maddon said. “We

Taking a deeper look at a 5-year fishing license I received an email from Dan Stephenson, the chief of fisheries for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, in response to a column I recently wrote. He wanted to explain the reason for the state needing to sell five-year licenses. I have nothing but respect for Stephenson. He is a good man and truly has the interests of the Illinois fishing community at heart. I would never question his motives, so I will let him explain.

“We are struggling in Illinois with the 3 R’s or what is now being called R3 – angler recruitment, retention and reactivation. We have roughly 700,000-750,000 licensed anglers in Illinois, down from 850,000 or so a decade ago. Demographic changes are one of the culprits there, but I won’t go into that now.

“Within the angling community, we see roughly the same number of licenses sold each year (let’s say 700,000), but there is a relatively large fraction that drop out, and roughly the same number comes in through new recruitment or reactivation of anglers that haven’t purchased a license for a few years.

Surprisingly, many of the anglers in the state do not purchase licenses year after year.

“This phenomenon of course has a name. It’s called ‘churn’ by those statisticians that work with the

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley numbers. With the purchase of the five-year license, which is voluntary, churn will be reduced. That angler will be locked in, so to speak, for five years. By the way, the angler will be allowed to purchase multiples of the five-year license, so they could get five, 10, 15 years or so on at the current price.

“By offering the five-year license, retention of anglers will go up over time. Equally important, our share of the federal Sportfish Restoration dollars (Dingell-Johnson) will increase.

We receive roughly $11 from the feds for every license we sell. So it’s about keeping those new anglers that come into the fishing community (recruitment) and not losing other anglers to lack of retention.

“I would point out, too, that Illinois resident licenses are seventh cheapest in the country and our nonresident licenses are third cheapest, so Illinois fishing licenses are still a good deal. Also, folks over 65 years of age receive a $2 license and over 75 a $1 license. We still get the $11 for each of those sold from the feds, as well.

“Not to get too much into the

weeds, but if we don’t keep license sales up, other states that do sell more licenses stand to get more of Illinois’ share of the federal funding since federal funds are allocated based on a formula that incorporates license sales and the size of the state in square miles.

“I know you are aware of this, but your readers should remember, too, that we receive no general revenue funds (tax dollars). Fishing license sales, trout and salmon stamp sales, Sportfish Restoration (DJ) funding and the Illinois Fish Management Fund are all we have to sustain ourselves. We live and die with license sales, so anything we do to improve the numbers helps. For more info on R3 check out the Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation website at www.takemefishing.org.

“As always, thanks for all you do getting the word out to the anglers of the state. It’s much appreciated.”

I do understand the issue and I have always dedicated myself to striving to increase the number of anglers in this country and keeping the future of our sport healthy and vibrant. The podcast that Dave Kranz and I do at www.wefishasa.com has a motto: “Inspiring all generations of anglers to promote the future of fishing.” Every week our new show attempts to do just that.

We are also in support of RBFF’s “60 in 60” campaign to increase the number of anglers in the USA to 60 million in the next 60 months. We are on the same page on this issue.

Still, I am very concerned that the revenue from the sale of the five-year licenses will be spent now and cause an even greater shortfall in funds for IDNR in the coming years. I would appreciate an explanation as to how that problem can be addressed. I had said that the five-year licenses seem like a shortsighted panacea, much like Mayor Richard Daley’s sale of the Chicago parking meters and the Skyway tolls to private companies.

Chicago got a big payday upfront, and then the revenue stream stopped.

How will that be avoided?

Also, I’d like to hear thoughts on other ways to reduce the amount of churn. I think improved fishing opportunities would be an obvious answer. Unfortunately, due to budget constraints, things like reduced stocking of Lake Michigan salmon work directly against that philosophy.

and urge him or her to oppose Senate Bill 1657 when it comes up for a vote.

According to the National Rifle Association, “SB 1657 creates an onerous gun dealer licensing scheme within the state.

While the purported intent of this legislation was to enhance ‘responsible business practices,’ this proposed legislation only proves that the intention is to close as many federally licensed firearm dealers as possible.

“The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives licenses and closely monitors all FFLs (federal firearms licenses) and strictly enforces any infringement of federal law. SB 1657 goes far beyond federal law in its mandatory regulations and red tape imposed at the state level that it would almost assuredly force the closure of most firearm dealers, and prevent prospective owners from opening new ones. This legislation seeks to create so many department divisions, anti-gun five-member licensing boards, and licensing fees that dealers would be forced to close through oversight by anti-gun appointees or being priced out of business.”

“To express your opinion to your elected officials, just go to act.nraila.org/takeaction.aspx?AlertID=1603 and click on the

‘Take Action’ button.”

Waterfowl hunting: The IDNR encourages waterfowl hunters to mark their calendars for upcoming waterfowl hunting blind site random drawings to be held at several public hunting areas in Illinois in June, July and August.

Duck and goose hunters must register in person for waterfowl-blind site drawings and must be present at the drawing to claim their blind sites. Mail-in registrations are not accepted. Blind allocations for these sites are good for one year.

To participate in a drawing, all applicants must present a 2016 or 2017 regular Illinois hunting license (no apprentice or youth license), a 2016 or 2017 Illinois Migratory Waterfowl Stamp at the time they register, unless exempted by law, and valid photo identification. Applicants must be at least 16 years old by the date of the drawing.

In our area, the drawing for Chain O’ Lakes State Park and Redwing Slough/Deer Lake State Natural Area in Lake County will be at 10 a.m. July 29 at Oak Point day use area. This is located one-fifth mile east of the Fox River on the south side of Illinois Route 173. Hunters will be allowed to register for only one of the two sites.

Some walleye are being caught on a jig and minnow, and the backwaters between these dams are producing crappies. Mini-Mites tipped with a wax worm or minnow will work well. Lake Atwood in the McHenry County Conservation District site, the Hollows, has trout remaining from the put-and-take program, Use small sponsor spinners for them.

“Crystal Lake’s Threes Oaks Recreation Area is renting boats on weekends and should have some great bass fishing in the coming weeks.”

Fishing has been fair-to-good for crappies, bluegills and white bass. Jigs and plastics have been the top producer. Water temps are now in the 50s, and fishing will

be much easier when the ‘no wake’ restriction is lifted.”

As of Wednesday, the Upper Fox River, Lower Fox River and the Fox Chain were deemed to be a “no wake” areas for now.

Blackhawks center Jonathan Toews enters the playoffs looking to make up for failing to score a goal last year in the Hawks’ first-round playoff loss to St. Louis.

BLACKHAWKS

Chance for Toews to find redemption

By MARK POTASH

mpotash@suntimes.com CHICAGO – An innately team player, Jonathan Toews doesn’t revel in his reputation as a difference-making winner.

But he can’t totally ignore it, either.

So, a year after Toews failed to score a goal in a 4-3 first-round series loss to the Blues, the Blackhawks’ captain acknowledged at least a bit of personal motivation to be the difference-making player he has been throughout his career. Last year’s series against the Blues marked the first time Toews had not scored in a playoff series the Hawks lost.

“Obviously, last year, not being able to score in that round – it’s one of those things you feel like if you had one or two (goals) maybe it could have been the difference in a game or two,” said Toews, who has scored 39 goals in 124 playoff games.

But as determined as he is to make a bigger impact in the playoffs this season, Toews does not want to get caught trying too hard. His work ethic has been the biggest key to his success in the playoffs, often putting him in the right place at the right time.

“I can’t be thinking about that and putting too much pressure on myself,” Toews said. “I’ve just got to play and get that feeling of (getting) that lucky bounce – you’re going to work for that bounce and you’re going to earn it.

“The more you work for things, the more they’ll go your way. It’s just (about) having that excitement, that positive

Blackhawks vs. Predators

Thursday: at Blackhawks, 7 p.m., CSN, NBCSN Saturday: at Blackhawks, 7 p.m., NBC Monday, April 17: at Nashville, 8:30 p.m., CSN, CNBC Thursday, April 20: at Nashville, TBD, CSN Saturday, April 22: at Blackhawks, TBD* Monday, April 24: at Nashville, TBD, CSN* Wednesday, April 26: at Blackhawks, TBD, CSN* * if necessary feel that as individuals we all have what it takes to contribute and make the difference for our team.”

Toews is one of six players who have won three Stanley Cups under coach Joel Quenneville. He knows this is a golden opportunity for No. 4 but isn’t getting ahead of himself. He never does.

“It’s a long road to get there. It’s a long enough road to get where we are right now,” he said. “We’re happy about the way the season’s gone and where we’re at as a team. We’re right where we want to be going into the playoffs. We’re as prepared as we can be.

“I don’t think you can look that far ahead and think about winning the Cup. It’s one shift, one period at a time and nothing more than that. You feel like you can just keep surviving no matter what and when you’re at the end, playing for the Cup, it doesn’t feel surprising that you’re there. But for now, we’ll worry about this series right now. We know it’s going to be one heck of a challenge.”

At McHenry, Crystal Lake South’s Christina Toniolo pitched a one-hit shutout, striking out nine and walking three in seven innings to lead the Gators to an FVC win.

Toniolo also hit a two-run home run.

Maddie Bush had two hits for the Gators (7-2, 1-0 FVC), leading an offense that had six players register its seven hits.

Tori Boysen had McHenry’s only hit with a double. Lindsey Ciesla started and took the loss.

Hampshire 4, Dundee-Crown 3: At Carpentersville, the Whip-Purs scored three runs in the top of the seventh inning to beat the Chargers in an FVC game that was picked up from a weather delay Monday. Delaney Rummell led Hampshire with two hits, including a triple, two RBIs and a run scored. Morgan Haefling had the Whip-Purs’ only other hit.

Emily Egger got the win for Hampshire, pitching six innings and allowing one earned run.

D-C’s Sydney Ruggles took the loss.

She struck out nine.

Andrea Conway drove in two runs, while Deanna Origer had a double and scored twice. Hannah Gestrich had a pair of hits and scored, while Claire Weeks had a double and an RBI. Prairie Ridge 8, Cary-Grove 1: At Crys-

tal Lake, Maddie Schillinger went 3 for 4 with three runs scored to lead the Wolves (5-0, 2-0) in an FVC win over the Trojans (0-6, 0-2). Prairie Ridge’s Kaleigh O’Brien and Shannon Donaldson each went 1 for 2 with a double, while O’Brien drove in a run.

Hailey Baker allowed one run on three hits to earn the win for Prairie Ridge. Baker struck out six Trojans and didn’t surrender a walk.

Katy Wierczorek led the Cary-Grove offense with a pair of hits, including a double, and an RBI. Marian Central 10, St. Edward 9: At Woodstock, Maggie Finnegan went 3 for 4 with a pair of doubles, three RBIs and two runs scored to lead the Hurricanes (5-1) in a nonconference win. Emily Miller had two hits, two runs and an RBI, while Jackie Chmiel had one hit, an RBI and scored twice.

Jamie Gatz pitched four innings for the win. Maddie Peters earned a save.

Wauconda 7, Woodstock 2: At Wauconda, the Blue Streaks committed four errors and allowed six unearned runs to score in a nonconference loss to Wauconda. Julia Vosburgh, Katie Walsh and Michelle Hanson each hit doubles for the Streaks (6-4).

Really?

Did you know that of cancers affecting both men and women, colorectal cancer is the second leading cancer killer? But this is one cancer you can prevent.

Screening tests help find polyps so they can be removed before they turn into cancer.

So, if you’re 50 or older, get screened for colorectal cancer.

Screening really does save lives!

UP CLOSE

A way with words

The Atrocious Poets regularly host Poetryon-the-Spot events as part of 4th Fridays at the Starline Factory in Harvard. They bring with them old-style typewriters to create their poems. Here, Dawn Zehr of Woodstock writes a poem during the group’s inaugural Poetry-on-theSpot Marathon held April 8 in Woodstock to benefit the Friends of the Old Courthouse.

Embracing all writing, even the ‘atrocious,’ group celebrates poetry

auling around old-style typewriters, Atrocious Poets want to make the world a bit lighter.

Hosting monthly Poetry-on-the-Spot events as part of 4th Fridays at the Starline Factory in Harvard and a recent poetry-writing marathon at the Old “We want to take poetry off the page and get it out into the world and connect with the community and show people poetry doesn’t have to be that intimidating, formal thing from your high school English class,” said Jessica Campbell of Woodstock, a relative newcomer to the group, which formed about two years ago.

With the month of April being National Poetry Month, the group has taken on more of an outreach role. It was created by Sophie Juhlin of Woodstock as a way for writers to regularly meet up and share poems and ideas.

Juhlin had written poems in college and couldn’t find a community of poets in Woodstock, so she created her own group. She chose the name based on a now-defunct blog, Poetraciities, she and a college friend had created.

“I incorporated the name into the group as a way to keep it lighthearted to make sure people don’t take us too seriously,” said Juhlin, who works at Read Between the Lynes in Woodstock and is called “the den mother” of the group.

“I think that poetry can be done by everybody, and it should be done by everybody,” she said, suggesting Walt Whitman as a good introductory poet.

Her other favorites are Alice Notley and Carl Phillips.

At the group’s inaugural April 8 Poetry-on-the-Spot Marathon to benefit the Old Courthouse in Woodstock, passersby offered topics and they wrote poems, or as they say, “quirky verse.”

The roughly 30 poems are posted on the courthouse walls, where they will remain throughout the month.

Courthouse in Woodstock, the poets hope to draw attention both to the group and poetry. It’s sort of like playtime with poetry, they say, because people need creativity.

(And no, this entire story isn’t going to rhyme. That was the last time.)

Members of Atrocious Poets, Dawn Zehr (from left) Jessica Campbell and Sophie Juhlin, all of Woodstock, write poems April 8 at an inaugural Poetry-on-the-Spot Marathon in Woodstock.

The group’s six or seven members – of all different ages and with a variety of day jobs – wrote about grandparents, spring flowers, mozzarella sticks, pretty much anything and everything.

At the end of the month, those who suggested the topics are invited to claim the poems they inspired. Donations to the Old Courthouse, in need of restoration, are encouraged.

The event is one of several the group has and will host to draw attention to the importance of poetry, members say.

They regularly bring their typewriters – most given to them – to the 4th Fridays art events in Harvard. The next one begins at 6 p.m. April 28 at the

Starline, 300 W. Front St. The group also intends to host on-the-spot and “performance art poetry” at farmers markets on the Woodstock Square.

They’d like to eventually create a book and have left free poems in jars at businesses and the library in Woodstock for anyone to pick up.

Poetry can create that relatable moment in which someone puts something in just the right words, Campbell said.

“They’re not all beautiful, perfect poems. There’s a reason we’re called the Atrocious Poets. They’re not all going to be sparkling gems,” she said of the poetry created on the spot. “Some of them are going to be silly and not

the best thing you ever read. We sort of accept that, embrace that.

“It’s just another way to say this is fun. It can just be a weird, quirky thing.

People have this impression that poetry can only be highly serious and literary, and I think it can be a great way to connect with people and say, ‘This is how I see a mozzarella stick. This is how I see spring.’ ” An amateur writer, Dawn Zehr discovered the group on Facebook – www. facebook.com/atrociouspoets/ – about a year ago. Writing as long as she can remember, with high school journals to prove it, she likes the feedback members provide.

“This is something I just do for love and no money,” she said.

The typewriters prevent the writers from getting stumped, for the most part, as they say they simply must push through it.

“Some of them are terrible,” Zehr said of the poems, “but some of them hit the mark.”

“Sometimes, people will cry or gasp or become kind of emotional about it when they read the poem you wrote.

Some people complain that the dog in the poem was brown and not black.

There are a wide variety of reactions to poems.”

The point is there are reactions, members say.

“Our goal, as we sort of interact with the public, is really to be an introduction to poetry and to allow people to experiment with it,” Zehr said. “Poetry doesn’t have to be wearing a beret and smoking a French cigarette.”

TRICIA 7 YEARS 9 MONTHS OLD FEMALE BROWN TABBY WITH WHITE DSH

HOURS

She was found wandering around a local neighborhood.

Someone took her in and put out flyers but no one responded.

They couldn’t keep her so she came to Helping Paws in March 2011 to look for a new home. She is a quiet girl and kind of independent. She enjoys being petted especially on the top of her head but doesn’t want to be picked up. We think she would prefer a home without other pets or small children.

She loves to play with interactive toys especially Da Bird. She would be available for no adoption fee to an approved senior citizen through our Senior to Senior program.

BAND SPOTLIGHT Yesterday’s Children

Yesterday’s Children started out as a four-piece band called The 4 Dimensions playing at teen clubs in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in the mid 1960s.

Adding horns to the band – two saxophones, two trumpets and a trombone – drastically changed the sound and size of the group as it went from four to 10 members. It also opened a new category of music the band could play, bassist Gary Mlekush said.

Gaining popularity, the band began playing at larger venues, such as The Wild Goose in Waukegan, owned by the legendary radio host Dex Cards, a WLS radio DJ, and The New Place in Algonquin. The band opened for or played with bands such as The Buckinghams, Ides of March, REO Speedwagon and Sly and the Family Stone at Milwaukee’s Summer Fest in 1970.

“The name Yesterday’s Children is so appropriate now being that our members are all in their 50s and 60s,” Mlekush said.

“Who would have thought that after 50-some years, this music would stand the test of time and still be a mainstay in today’s music culture? Playing music by The Buckinghams, Chicago, The Beatles and even [Frank] Sinatra is so much fun, I can’t get enough of it.”

Today, Yesterday’s children plays at numerous festivals and venues in the Racine and Kenosha, Wisconsin, areas.

They’re branching out and moving their shows to northern Illinois.

JOE DIAMOND STUDIO SERIES: “THE 13TH HOUR”

Diamond selling out shows, reading minds in Crystal Lake REVIEWS Regina M. Belt-Daniels

I don’t believe Joe Diamond is the mystery performer everyone is “quietly talking about” as his PR suggests. A lot of amazing things have happened to Diamond lately (and how can you stay quiet about that?) – appearances on WGN radio and TV, ABC7, Showtime and the Movie Channel and regular bookings at Chicago’s Magic Cabaret and the Dole’s Listening Room. TripAdvisor named Diamond the “number one perfect evening out in Crystal Lake,” and, yes, he still holds the world’s record for solving the world’s largest corn maze while blindfolded.

Having attended many of Diamond’s shows – initially as a skeptic – I was excited to attend “Dreamcatcher,” his latest show at the Listening Room. The show was packed with fans and the newly curious, all lured by Diamond’s promise to combine his signature mind-reading skills with his ability to interpret dreams.

He cleverly engages audience members with random selection for participation in his explanations, tricks and showcases – another great lure.

Yes, there are reasons why Diamond’s shows are so popular and sell out so quickly. His shows are fast-paced with continued audience interaction; Diamond’s sense of humor is rampant and

co-exists with his effective communication skills; he is sincere, intelligent, personable, attractive and, best of all, uncannily 100 percent accurate.

“Dreamcatcher” is a somewhat more personal show than previous presentations. Diamond reveals, as a child, he read Sherlock Holmes and Palmistry books voraciously and his grandmother taught him how to tell fortunes with an ordinary pack of playing cards. (And here he explains how a pack of cards is a perfect representation of time: 52 cards = 52 weeks, four suits, four seasons. If you add up all the values in a deck, you arrive at 364, but add the Joker and it’s 365, the same as the number of days in a year, etc.)

Diamond also confesses his first business venture at the age of 8 was a tremendous failure; starting a detective agency in Wonder Lake, a locale that had no mysteries, no murders and no business. He recreates his first paranormal experience (age 12) with the assistance of two young boys from the audience.

Suffice to say, the resulting occurrence of spoon bending meets with audience gasps and repeated proclamations of “What?!” and “You’ve got to be kidding.”

Diamond also reinforced the concept of mental telepathy with an activity involving a 40-years-married couple plucked from the fourth row, while quoting Mark Twain’s “mental telepathy is an undeniable fact.” Diamond is literate, if nothing else.

In the latter half of the program, aston-

WHEN: 7 p.m. April 15 WHERE: Studio 215 in The Dole Mansion, 401 Country Club Road, Crystal Lake COST & INFO: An exploration of mind reading, psychic phenomena and time travel. Only 13 people admitted to each show. Shows last about 1 hour, 30 minutes. Tickets start at $25.

Tickets and information: www.joediamondlive.com. Diamond also performs regularly at 8 p.m. Wednesdays at The Magic Cabaret at The Greenhouse Theater Center, 2257 N. Lincoln Ave., Chicago. Information: 773-4047336. Tickets start at $25. Recommended for ages 13 and older. ishingly while wearing a steel-lined mask checked out by audience members and while holding crumpled pieces of paper given to him by audience volunteers, Diamond is not only able to tell what dream is written on that paper but interpret it as well. Incidentally, the dreams ranged from beach walks with mom and a 1920s cartoon flapper to ponies making cupcakes (you had to see that one to believe it!). And there are many other entertaining segments I won’t reveal.

If you’re not able to catch Diamond at one of his Listening Room or Magic Cabaret shows, try to book a seat for one of his Studio Series program. Currently, two shows are running: “Close Encounters” and “The 13th Hour.” But be forewarned – only 13 people are admitted for the studio shows, and the tickets disappear as soon as dates are announced.

Diamond is an entertainment legend in the making, and his show is the fabric of good theater. My recommendation?

Catch it! This Diamond is a gem of a show.

“LINDA VISTA”

Steppenwolf’s ‘Linda Vista’ a creatively wondrous new play REVIEWS Regina M. Belt-Daniels Playwright Tracy Letts is not afraid of making enemies. The Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner did not invite the Jeff Awards committee to the world premiere of his latest play, “Linda Vista.” Letts wants them to pay for their tickets.

“The Jeffs are more like a club to get free tickets,” he reportedly said.

“The Jeffs need to do some service and give away some scholarships. . . . They need to change and diversify. They don’t like me, and I don’t like them.” Not surprisingly, Letts sounds very much like his main character in his newest play, “Linda Vista.”

Letts probably is best known as the author of “August: Osage County” and “Superior Donuts.”

(Both went on to film and TV fame).

He also is a Steppenwolf ensemble member; “Linda Vista” is Letts’ fifth world premiere at Steppenwolf. It is an edgy, funny, contemporary adult comedy that contains seri-

ous elements and serious issues: loneliness, friendship, aggression, intimacy and loss, to mention a few.

Wheeler (the incredible Ian Barford) is a 50-year-old former photojournalist from Chicago who lives in the San Diego neighborhood of the demographically split LatinVietnamese populated Linda Vista.

His two friends, Paul (Tim Hopper) and Margaret (Sally Murphy) are helping him jump-start a new life, beginning with a move from his ex-wife’s garage to an apartment (“no more living like a character in a Steely Dan song”). They now want to set him up with a life coach named Jules (Cora Vander Brock).

Paul’s philosophy of “grab whatever happiness you can, we end up on the deathbed whether we have company or not” isn’t exactly a moral guidepost for Wheeler’s long-overdue maturation and coming of age. (As an aside, Barford and Hopper’s delivery of an after-Squash game discussion of how “you’re going to do what you have to do but you can’t know what you should do because you don’t know what you will do” rivals any “Who’s on First?” recitation.) There’s also a Gen-X/Millennial conflict involving a Vietnamese

rockabilly Minnie (Kahyun Kim) and complications with co-worker Anita (Caroline Neff) and a suicidal boss (Troy West).

Ian Barford is the perfect character actor; his Wheeler is a comfortable, confused 50-year-old with lots of experience and no life knowledge, accurately described by Vander Broeck’s Jules as a “turtle without a shell.” He’s stuck in his displacement, and, at times, it is difficult to like Wheeler as his actions have cataclysmic effects on others. But Barford is such an exquisite, believable actor you feel both compassion and admiration as his Wheeler hurts and rescues others, stumbling through life, trying to reconcile the man he is with the ideal man he truly yearns to be.

Barford is brilliantly supported by the strong ensemble of Hopper, Kim, Murphu, Neff, Vander Broeck and West. They all have extensive theater, television and movie credits and provide the perfect balance to Barford’s developing character. This is just a tight, well-cast ensemble with obvious chemistry.

The technical aspects of this production are so subtle and fluid you won’t notice the woven col-

WHEN: Through May 21 WHERE: Steppenwolf Theater, 1650 N. Halsted St., Chicago COST & INFO: Exploring the arrested development of a 50-year-old misanthrope as his life goes through drastic changes.

Tickets and information: 312-335-1650 or www.wteppenwolf.org laboration of Marcus Doshi’s lighting, Laura Bauer’s costumes and Richard Woodbury. The stage set is a gem; below arching palm trees, the circular set rotates slowly between apartment 217 to the Nikon repair shop to the various restaurants and bars for dates and meetings. Scenic designer Todd Rosenthal delivers with a clean, modern and functionally decorated set. It all enhances the commonality and reality of “Linda Vista” from start to finish.

Yet, there are some caveats – director Dexter Bullard’s production, albeit well-paced and genuinely entertaining, runs 2 hours and 50 minutes. Despite delicious humor, there also is nudity, political commentary and continued profanity, but, then again, that’s also Letts, and it’s not gratuitous. Bullard, Letts and the actors give us emotional access to a creatively wondrous new play.

‘Fate of the Furious’ ups action, dials down story

By SANDY COHEN The Associated Press

“The Fast and the Furious” hasn’t become a billion-dollar global franchise because of its scintillating dialogue and high-minded drama. It’s all about the cars, the action, the international settings and the good-looking cast.

So don’t give too much thought to the story holes and convoluted plot in “The Fate of the Furious,” the eighth installment in the saga. If things don’t add up or characters killed off in previous films suddenly re-emerge, just go with it, knowing it’s leading up to an epic final chase across a remote Russian ice field between sports cars, Humvees and a nuclear submarine.

Suspension of disbelief is required for these films. Remember in “Furious 7” when parachute-equipped cars fell from a cargo plane and the drivers were shown “steering” the airborne vehicles? Here, they speed across ice with unbelievable accuracy. One character even wakeboards through the tundra on a detached car door.

“F8” begins with Dom (Vin Diesel) and Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) honeymooning in Havana. Charmed by the city’s car culture, they’re soon in a

OPENING FRIDAY

“THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS”

Dwayne Johnson in “The Fate of the Furious.”

STARRING: Vin Diesel, Jason Statham,

Dwayne Johnson PLOT: When a mysterious woman seduces Dom into the world of terrorism and a betrayal of those closest to him, the crew face trials that will test them as never before.

RATED: PG-13 for prolonged sequences of violence and destruction, suggestive content and language TIME: 2 hours, 16 minutes street race. After finishing with his car on fire, Dom is approached by the mysterious Cipher (Charlize Theron), who blackmails him into betraying his colleagues and working for her.

Despite her ridiculous hairdo and having to utter such lines as “Your team’s about to go up against the only thing they can’t handle: You,” Theron is a great villain. She anchors the story with her gravitas by making Cipher convincingly capable.

Meanwhile, Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) taps Dom and his ace driving team to help recover a missing electromagnetic pulse weapon. The job brings them to Berlin, where Dom abandons

his crew and links up with Cipher.

Hobbs ends up in jail, practically cellmates with Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham), the villain from “Furious 7.”

They’re set free by secret operative Mr. Nobody (Kurt Russell), who wants the adversaries to work together to find Cipher and Dom. Joined by franchise stalwarts Roman (Tyrese Gibson) and Tej (Chris “Ludacris” Bridges), the crew heads to New York City, where some of the film’s most spectacular action is set.

One scene shows driverless cars coming to life at the hands of a hacker.

Directed by F. Gary Gray (“Straight Outta Compton”), “F8” delivers the same big scope and quick pace of the previous “Fast” films. The action satisfies, even if the lines veer past campy into full-on cheese territory and the story is hazier than the smoke from a broken tailpipe.

The cast and the cars are what carry this franchise. Johnson is eminently likable, Gibson and Bridges provide comic relief and Rodriguez is full of heart. Statham shines during a sequence where he navigates a deadly gun battle while toting a baby in a bassinet – especially sweet considering the actor is about to become a first-time father. Helen Mirren makes a charming, if odd, cameo. And Scott Eastwood joins the ensemble as Little Nobody, a cute but unnecessary character likely put in place because two more “Fast” films are planned.

It’s hard to imagine where “Fast” will go next. They’ve already incorporated all manner of motor vehicles, including a helicopter and a submarine. But the franchise has a proven formula, so long as they keep the tires screeching and the cast intact.

Know what’s below: Call 811 before digging for landscaping and home improvement projects this spring

(BPT) - With the snow melted and the ground thawed, many eager homeowners and landscape professionals across the country will roll up their sleeves and reach for their shovels to start projects that require digging this spring.

During the transition into “digging season,” Common Ground Alliance (CGA), the association dedicated to protecting underground utilities and the people who dig near them, reminds homeowners and professional diggers that calling 811 is the first step toward protecting you and your community from the risk of unintentionally damaging an underground line.

Every digging project, no matter how large or small, warrants a free call to 811. Installing a mailbox or fence, building a deck and landscaping are all examples of digging projects that should only begin a few days after making a call to 811. Calling this number connects you to your local one-call utility notification center.

According to data collected by CGA in a phone survey in March, millions of American homeowners will likely do DIY projects involving digging this year, but 44 percent of them do not plan to make a free call to 811 before digging. Extrapolated to the full population of U.S. homeowners, approximately 58.5 million people will dig this year without first calling 811.

A utility line is damaged every six minutes in America because someone decided to dig without making a call to 811 to learn the approximate location of buried utilities in their area. Unintentionally striking one of these lines can result in inconvenient outages for entire neighborhoods, serious harm to yourself or your neighbors, and significant repair costs.

As a result, CGA offers the following tips to make sure you complete your project safely and without any utility service interruptions, so you don’t become a statistic.

Here’s how the 811 process works: 1. One free, simple phone call to 811 makes it easy for your local one-call center to notify all appropriate utility companies of your intent to dig. Call a few days prior to digging to ensure enough time for the approximate location of utility lines to be marked with flags or paint.

3. Your local one-call center will notify affected utility companies, which will then send professional locators to the proposed dig site to mark the approximate location of your lines.

a football field’s length of utilities for every person in the U.S. Your family depends on this buried infrastructure for your everyday needs, including electric, natural gas, water and sewer, cable TV, high-speed internet and landline telephone. With that much critical infrastructure underground, it’s important to know what’s below and call 811 before digging.

4. Only once all lines have been accurately marked should you roll up those sleeves and carefully dig around the marked areas.

To find out more information about 811 or the one-call utility notification center in your area, visit www.call811.com.

2. When you call 811, a representative from your local one-call center will ask for the location and description of your digging project.

There are nearly 20 million miles of underground utility lines in the United States, which equates to more than

CRYSTAL LAKE GARAGE SALES

PUBLIC AUCTION

After having three consecutive sixheart contracts while playing with my wife online at bridgebase.com last month, the next evening, the robots (computer-controlled opponents) got some revenge in this deal.

Note North’s correct two-diamond response. With game-going values, bid your longest suit first. Since the robots use two-over-one game-forcing, I would have been inclined to rebid two hearts with that South hand, but the robots were playing that three clubs promised extra strength.

The next two calls were natural, then four no-trump was Roman Key Card Blackwood. South’s six-heart reply showed an odd number of key cards (here, two aces and the heart king) and a spade void. Scientific bidders, those robots!

I led my singleton diamond.

Declarer rose with dummy’s ace and, presumably in the dummy for the last time, cashed all four spade winners, discarding three clubs and a diamond from hand. Then South drew trumps and conceded one diamond trick.

(Yes, the fourth spade was unnecessarily dangerous.)

There were four tables in six notrump, which had 12 top tricks. Two pairs of robots tried six diamonds after the sequence one heart - two diamonds - three clubs - three no-trump - six diamonds. One was favored by the heart-jack start, but the other faced the club-jack lead, after which the contract was unmakable without the aid of X-ray vision.

The other 11 tables were in six hearts. One robot even made an overtrick when West led a low club, and declarer guessed to put up dummy’s queen.
