TODAY’S TALKER

Death of giant British rabbit adds to United Airlines’ woes

By DANICA KIRKA

The Associated Press LONDON – United Airlines is reviewing its handling of a giant showcase rabbit that died after being shipped across the Atlantic from Britain on one of its flights, the latest in a growing list of customer complaints.

Distraught breeder Annette Edwards told The Associated Press by phone Wednesday that a veterinarian had checked Simon – a 10-month-old, 3-foot continental rabbit – shortly before the animal was placed on a United flight from London’s Heathrow Airport to Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport.

Edwards said Simon is the offspring of Darius, which the Guinness World Records lists as the world’s longest rabbit at 4 feet, 3 inches.

“Simon had his vet check just before getting on the plane,” she said from Worcestershire in central England. “He was fit as a fiddle.”

United spokesman Charles Hobart said the rabbit was moving around in its crate and appeared healthy when taken off the plane in O’Hare, waiting to be put on another flight to Kansas City. About a half-hour later, at the company-run pet facility, Simon seemed to be sleeping. Shortly after that, a pet facility employee opened the cage and found the rabbit dead. He said the airline is reviewing its handling of the animal.

“We won’t know the cause of death, because we offered to perform a necropsy free of charge – that’s standard procedure – but the customer didn’t want us to perform a necropsy, and we understand,” he said.

Hobart said the airline offered compensation to the breeder but would not disclose the amount.

Bryan Bergdale, a farmland investment manager, said he bought the rabbit for his boss, who had hoped to show it at the Iowa State Fair. He had driven from the Des Moines area to Kansas City and was nearing the airport last Thursday when United called with the bad news. At first, he didn’t believe it.

“We’d built a pen and had toys all ready.

It’s sort of a sad deal,” he said.

Bergdale, 29, said he’d tracked down the breeder and bought the rabbit for his boss, Steve Bruere, who owns a farm real estate company in the Des Moines suburb of Clive.

Bergdale said the rabbit cost $530 and the shipping was $1,800.

Bergdale said the United representative didn’t say anything about compensating him for the loss.

“We’re still in the mourning process,” he said. “We’re not quite sure what we’re going to do.”

United had the second-highest level of animal deaths and injuries of any U.S. airline last year, or 2.11 per 10,000 animals transported, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. Only Hawaiian Airlines was worse at 3.99, the result of three deaths among the 7,518 animals it transported.

United transported 109,149 animals last year, second only to Alaska Airlines with 112,281. United reported nine deaths and 14 injuries, the highest figures for each category among U.S. carriers. Alaska reported two deaths and one injury.

United said it works to protect the safety of animals through its PetSafe program, which is staffed 24 hours a day and allows pet owners to track their animals from point of origin to destination.

“Travel can be stressful for animals,” Hobart said, adding that the carrier has plenty of tips for those who do decide to ship their animals.

United is already working to repair its battered image after a passenger who refused to give up his seat on an overbooked flight was forcibly dragged from a plane at O’Hare.

Airport security officers removed David Dao, a 69-year-old from Kentucky, from the United Express flight.

Images of his bloodied face were widely circulated on social media, forcing United CEO Oscar Munoz to apologize. Munoz was widely faulted for his early responses to the situation. He first blamed Dao but later apologized repeatedly for United’s handling of the situation.

Two weeks earlier, United was criticized after a gate agent stopped two young girls from boarding a flight because they were wearing leggings.

The airline said leggings violate the dress code of the United Pass program, a benefit for employees and their dependents.

The airline said last week that Munoz would not automatically become chairman of the carrier’s parent company, United Continental Holdings, next year as originally planned.

CENTERS CONSOLIDATE Northeast Regional Communications Center to provide emergency dispatch service to 16 local agencies

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Almost two years after Gov. Bruce Rauner signed a law that required McHenry County to reduce its number of dispatch centers, Northeast Regional Communications Center has started taking calls.

The dispatch center, which will have its grand opening Monday, was formed from a partnership with the McHenry police, McHenry Township Fire Protection District, Woodstock police and Harvard police. It will be the emergency service provider for 16 local agencies, including the McHenry Township Fire Protection District, Woodstock Police Department, Harvard Police Department, Johnsburg Police Department and Woodstock Fire District.The center will house nine dispatch workstations for those agencies.

“We’re excited to have other agencies here,” NERCOM supervisor Jennifer Synek said. “It’s a streamlined process. I know it’s something that was mandated by the government, but we’re here to do a job, and we’re here to do it efficiently.”

The law was signed by the governor in 2015 mandating that dispatch centers consolidate.

The state mandate requires any county with at least 250,000 residents, which includes McHenry County, to cut its dispatch center by 50 percent

by July 1.

At an open house Wednesday, McHenry Police Chief John Jones said the consolidation was going to happen even if the governor didn’t mandate it.

“Prior to this, we were already dispatching for other area departments. … So in my opinion, this was a natural progression,” Jones said.

The McHenry Police Department started evaluating the McHenry Dispatch Center for potential future

The center now will dispatch service to 16 area agencies. growth in 2011, and a formal partnership was created between McHenry police and fire departments in 2015 to expand services of the center. Not long after, the state passed the legislation requiring consolidation.

The project’s construction and renovation began in September and was recently completed. Jones said the dispatch center’s cost was about $1.3 million. Both Harvard and Woodstock will be responsible for a percentage of NERCOM’s operation-

al costs.

“Because Gov. Rauner made it a mandate that 50 percent of our dispatch centers close in McHenry County, a lot of that was made eligible by a grant refund, so we’ve submitted our grant application, and we’re pretty confident we’re going to get the majority of our costs for the dispatch center back,” Jones said.

NERCOM staffing will consist of 21 full-time, nonsworn dispatchers and six part-time dispatchers work-

ing 12-hour rotating shifts. Woodstock will bring in five of its dispatchers to NERCOM on Monday.

“I think the city of Woodstock took the best course of action possible with this partnership as far as being part of NERCOM,” Woodstock Police Chief John Lieb said. “This is the best route possible to benefit the city, the citizens of Woodstock and the dispatchers that had to move.

Talia Freund, 14, of Mazon is seen at her father’s house March 1 in Algonquin. Freund died Monday after battling Ewing’s sarcoma for about nine months. The 14-year-old and her father had raised thousands of dollars for Team Talia, including at a recent St. Baldrick’s fundraiser at St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church.

ALGONQUIN

Teen remembered for strong, 9-month fight against cancer

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Although 14-year-old Talia Freund lost her battle with metastatic Ewing’s sarcoma Monday, her family has pledged to continue her battle to fight childhood cancer.

Freund, formerly of Algonquin, was diagnosed about nine months ago and died peacefully among her family and close friends at her home in Mazon, according to her obituary.

Throughout her battle, Talia always kept a smile on her face and was dedicated to helping others who were going through what she was, said her father, Greg Freund of Algonquin.

“We have to go continue that fight, and try to make sure as many kids as possible can be saved,” Freund said.

Donations to Team Talia and her family while she was fighting cancer totaled more than $30,000, her family said.

More than $20,000 was raised at a fundraiser in March in Mazon, Freund said, and nearly $10,000 was raised through the Shamrock Shave at St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church later that month.

Talia fought her battle like a warrior, said her mother, Tabitha Freeman. In March, Talia told the Northwest Herald she just wanted to be treated like a normal person, not a cancer patient.

“She fought this battle with such a kind, strong heart that it’s admirable,” Freeman said. “I don’t know how she did it.”

Family and friends are working on setting up a foundation in honor of Talia to fund childhood cancer research. Talia’s wish was to have memorials made to the

Team Talia account at the First Community Financial Bank of Mazon to go toward cancer research.

Talia was a freshman attending Seneca Township High School.

She had dreams of becoming a special education teacher and had a passion for cosmetics, according to her obituary.

In addition to her parents, she is survived by stepfather, Joseph Freeman of Mazon, and brother, Owen.

A celebration of Talia’s life will be from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday at U.C. Davis-Callahan Funeral Home, 301 W. Washington St., Morris.

The visitation will be at 10 a.m. May 6, followed by Mass at 11 a.m. at St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church, 111 S. Hubbard St., Algonquin. After the Mass, a celebration will be at Haegers Bend Community Center, 3226 E. Bend Drive, Algonquin.

The 2900 block of Lincoln Road in unincorporated McHenry is seen Wednesday. McHenry County Sheriff’s deputies arrested Sean C. Blackmon on Tuesday for possession of methamphetamine manufacturing material and methamphetamine manufacturing waste.

Police find meth lab equipment near McHenry neighborhood

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Police arrested a local man Tuesday after finding equipment for making methamphetamine and methamphetamine manufacturing waste at a home in a residential neighborhood near McHenry.

The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office was called about 9:45 a.m. Tuesday to the 2900 block of Lincoln Road near McHenry for the report of a possible meth lab in the area. Deputies saw equipment and supplies, including tubing and jars, that appeared to be part of a meth lab.

McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Sandra Rogers said materials found in the residence likely were used for the one-pot method – a way to cook methamphetamine in small batches for personal use. Deputies also found other

items commonly associated with making meth.

No one needed to be evacuated from the surrounding area or alerted of the situation because of the size of the operaSean C. tion, Rogers said.

Blackmon Sean C. Blackmon, 44, was charged with possession of methamphetamine manufacturing material and methamphetamine manufacturing waste, both Class 2 felonies, and driving on a suspended license, a Class A misdemeanor. Rogers said Blackmon has lived at the McHenry residence for at least the past year. She said the sheriff’s office was unable to release Blackmon’s address because there were other people living in the home at the time who were not involved.

Blackmon has previously been

charged with disorderly conduct in 2016, burglary in 2014 and unlawful possession of a controlled substance in 2002.

Members of the Illinois State Police Methamphetamine Response Team and McHenry County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Unit also responded.

Blackmon remains in McHenry County Jail custody in lieu of posting 10 percent of his $55,000 bond. He will appear in court Thursday.

Rogers said the sheriff’s office has seen an increase in methamphetamine-related arrests in the past year as compared with the past six years, many of which have been small operations such as this one.

She said methamphetamine has always been around, but more residents are becoming aware of what’s needed to make it and reaching out to authorities with information, resulting in more investigations and arrests.

FOX RIVER GROVE – A new class of liquor license has been created in Fox River Grove to ensure that when a liquor license is given to a new business, it’s primarily operating as a restaurant, Village Administrator Derek Soderholm said.

The Fox River Grove Village Board agreed to issue the new Class B liquor license to Mio Pizza on the condition that the business takes over the former Jimano’s Pizzeria space and the adjacent space to start the restaurant.

Mio Pizza owner Brian Abraham of Algonquin first wanted to open a business with only video gambling in the village, Soderholm said, but later came back before the board with the Mio Pizza concept when he was told he would have to have food, too.

“I’m concerned that I learned at the last meeting that this was the person who had come before and just wanted to open a gaming license,” Fox River Grove Trustee Patrick Wall said at Thursday’s Village Board meeting.

“And I’m concerned that it’s just a front, and it’s not an actual business.”

The board unanimously approved the addition of the Class B liquor li-

cense, which requires the license holder to make at least $250,000 in gross annual sales from food, beer and wine.

If the licensee doesn’t meet the mark after a year, the liquor commissioner, who is the mayor, may revoke the license, according to the village’s ordinance.

Trustees added the requirement for Mio Pizza to lease not only the former Jimano’s Pizzeria space, 700 Route 14, but also the vacant space adjoining Jimano’s to make it more of a restaurant.

“If we have another place that just ends up as a gambling place, we’re doing a disservice to the residents, we really are,” Trustee Steve Knar said.

“We’ve got enough gaming in this town.”

In Illinois, businesses that serve alcohol can apply for a video gambling license with the state. Mio Pizza coming to Fox River Grove was contingent on having video gambling.

Although he originally wanted to open a place with only video gaming, Abraham said the space now will be a “full blown Italian restaurant” that also serves alcohol and has video gaming.

The restaurant will be about 2,000 square feet, Abraham said, and he hopes to open at the end of May.

STATE BRIEF Chicago Archdiocese to settle priest abuse suits for $4.45M

CHICAGO – The Archdiocese of Chicago will pay $4.45 million to settle separate lawsuits brought by three men who allege they were sexually abused more than a decade ago by a former Roman Catholic priest and convicted sex offender.

Mark Brown, the attorney for the men, told the Chicago Tribune that two brothers reached settlements in late January. They accused Daniel McCormack of sexually abusing them more than once during an after-school program at Our Lady of the Westside Catholic School in the mid-2000s.

The other man, who was a basketball player on a team McCormack coached for the school, reached his settlement April 20.

An archdiocese spokeswoman confirmed the settlement has been reached. She said she can’t discuss the case “out of respect for the privacy of those involved.”

BLOOD DRIVES Allegations against McCormack became public in 2006, four years after Cardinal Francis George, who is now deceased, urged Catholic bishops to remove any priest from ministry for a single act of sexual abuse.

The cardinal didn’t remove him from ministry at St. Agatha Catholic Church when McCormack had been taken into custody by Chicago police in August 2005 for allegedly abusing a boy. McCormack served as a pastor there until 2006.

McCormack was permanently removed from the priesthood after pleading guilty in 2007 to fondling five boys ages 8 to 12. The Illinois attorney general and the Cook County state’s attorney petitioned the court to have him committed under the Sexually Violent Persons Commitment Act when he came up for parole in 2010.

McCormack remains in a state mental health facility as those proceedings continue.

FREE ROTATOR CUFF AND SHOULDER PAIN WORKSHOP REVEALS HOW TO ACCELERATE HEALING USING NATURAL TECHNIQUES AND AVOIDING MEDICATION, INJECTIONS OR SURGERY Do you have shoulder pain with any of the following day-to-day activities?

•

Reaching Overhead?

•

Reaching into the Back Seat?

•

Reaching Behind Your Back?

•

While you Sleep?

If you answered yes to any of the questions above, you already know that kind of shoulder pain can be such a menace…

It can ruin a good night’s sleep… and when you lack sleep, you get cranky.

It can change the way you put on your shirt…or for the ladies, your bra…because it’s just too painful to do it the way you used to.

It can stop you from enjoying daily simple tasks…making you frustrated…forcing you to take more pain pills than you would care to admit.

And for golfers out there…it can ruin your game…getting scores you’re too embarrassed to tell…your friends are probably wondering why you even care to play!

Is it your rotator cuff that’s the culprit?

If you experience pain, weakness or difficulty during the tests mentioned here, it is highly likely that you are suffering from a rotator cuff tear.

1. With your arm relaxed by your side, rotate your arm out so your thumb faces directly out to the side. Slowly raise your arm away from your side, then slowly lower the arm. Test is positive if the arm suddenly drops or you experience severe pain on the way up or down.

2. In this test for the right shoulder, raise you right arm out sideways by lifting your right elbow to 90 degrees, with your forearm hanging down, fingers pointed to the ground, your thumb pointing to your tummy. With your left hand, push down on the right arm just above the elbow. Test is positive if you experience pain or weakness.

3. The hand of the affected arm is placed on the lower back as if you were tucking in your shirt. Now try lifting the hand off the back without straightening your elbow. Test is positive if you’re unable to lift the hand off.

Now you may be asking…can a rotator cuff tear heal and the pain subside without medications, injections, or surgery?

In most cases, yes…but it depends on but not limited to the following factors.

•

What is the grade of the tear? There are 3 grades.

•

Which of the 4 muscles of the rotator cuff is torn.

•

How old is the tear.

FREE Rotator Cuff and Shoulder Pain Workshop Due to overwhelming request from our fellow McHenry County residents, Diamond Physical Therapy will host our Rotator Cuff and Shoulder Pain Workshop on Thursday 6:30 PM May 11, 2017 at our Algonquin office (1140 East Algonquin Rd) Here’s some of what you’ll learn during the workshop: •

Know which rotator cuff muscle is affected and the grade of the tear

•

Correct the cause of your pain and speed up the healing process

•

Prevent your shoulder from getting worse, and avoid the single biggest mistake shoulder pain sufferers make

Due to the interactive nature of this workshop, there are only 20 spots available.

To hold your spot, please call 847-854-0196 at our Algonquin Office.

Sincerely, Chuck Schulte, PT Diamond Physical Therapy PS - Call 847-854-0196 at our Algonquin Office to hold your spot for the FREE Rotator Cuff and Shoulder Pain Workshop on Thursday May 11th.

• Thursday, April 27, 2017

The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that run from your shoulder blade into the top end of your arm bone. Your rotator cuff helps keep the ball end of your arm bone centered in the shoulder socket. When healthy, the rotator cuff allows us to reach in all directions smoothly and without pain.

Search ongoing for toddler near Joliet

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET TOWNSHIP – Searchers scoured the Preston Heights area Wednesday for a missing 1-year-old girl.

Will County Deputy Chief Rick Ackerson said at a news conference Wednesday afternoon that hundreds of police and volunteers had been searching for Semaj Crosby.

“It’s such a large area, open fields, woods, trees, retention ponds,” Ackerson said. “We’re doing everything we can to find her.”

Ackerson said nothing investigators had learned indicates that the girl did not wander off on her own.

The FBI was called Wednesday morning to assist in the case.

Semaj was reported missing to police about 6 p.m. Tuesday. Ackerson said she’d been playing with about six other children in front of her family’s home in the 300 block of Louis Road.

“She was right there one minute and gone the next,” Ackerson said.

Dive teams from a half-dozen area fire agencies were called to search the seven retention ponds located near

The Department of Children and Family Services opened two investigations of the mother for allegations of neglect last month.

DCFS spokeswoman Veronica Resa said in an email that DCFS personnel had been at the home about 3:20 p.m. Tuesday “and had seen all three of the mother’s children, including Semaj. There were no obvious hazards or safety concerns at that time.”

Resa said DCFS has been offering services to the family since September 2016.

Ackerson said deputies responded to a 911 hang-up from the residence on Easter Sunday. There was no disturbance, but deputies provided candy and toys for the children at the house, he said.

D-155 to offer aviation course with LITH Airport

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – High School District 155 is partnering with Lake in the Hills Airport to offer interested students an opportunity to earn a private pilot license.

A limited number of spots are available for the course, which gives students the opportunity to study for and pass the written test required by the Federal Aviation Administration before flight time with an instructor can start.

Both the district and the airport see the partnership as mutually beneficial. The district can give students an opportunity to begin work pursuing jobs in the in-demand field of aviation.

“This course will provide a strong foundation of knowledge and increase students’ exposure of aviation,” Superintendent Johnnie Thomas said in a statement. “Students interested in aviation can advance in high school, allowing them to reduce costs in college.”

As for the airport, the course can

anich said. “The earlier we can reach kids and involve or interest them, the more they know as adults, and they may make the decision earlier to fly.”

Besides pilot, the course is aimed for students who are interested in

pursuing the careers of flight operations support, dispatcher, engineering and working for the FAA. Chicago-based Boeing, the world’s largest aviation company, last year projected a demand for nearly 1.5 million pilots and technicians for the worldwide commercial aviation industry over the next 20 years. For North America, the estimate predicts a need for 112,000 new pilots, 127,000 new technicians and 151,000 new cabin crew employees.

The course will be taught by a commercial pilot and an FAA-certified ground instructor. Classes will be from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Mondays from Aug. 21 to Dec. 18 at Crystal Lake South High School, giving students the necessary knowledge to pass the written knowledge test.

The cost of the course is $350. The district is hosting an informational meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday in the library of Crystal Lake South, 1200 McHenry Ave. The FAA requires a minimum of 40 hours of flight time on top of passing the test in order to get a private pilot license.

The school called off afternoon preschool, but morning classes continued. Salmieri said it was better for the children to be in school rather than out in the neighborhood while police were trying to find the missing child.

Police searched the Preston Heights area throughout Tuesday night, using bloodhounds, more than 80 emergency personnel and a helicopter with infrared sensors, but they were unable to locate the girl.

On Wednesday morning, a second team of bloodhounds was called to the scene from Cook County. Responders with the Will County Emergency Management Agency, Forest Preserve District of Will County and sheriff’s ofSemaj fice continued to search, Crosby and the East Joliet Fire Department was coordinating water and drone searches.

There are seven retention ponds nearby – some in the immediate neighborhood, one behind the Pheasant Run subdivision and several in back of the Ikea distribution center being constructed on Laraway Road. Divers stopped searching about 5:30 p.m. without finding anything.

A reverse 911 call was sent out Tuesday night to all residents within a 5-mile radius of the scene. Sheriff’s police are asking residents to avoid the area unless they live in the neighborhood, so as not to interfere with search efforts.

But about 60 volunteers arranged through social media to meet near the scene and held a prayer circle before being directed by deputies to search in a nearby field.

“I have a 1-year-old son. This is just so sad,” said Angel Woodard, a volunteer from Lockport. “About 9 a.m. we were sent out through the woods and jumped gates trying to find her.”

Police are using the parking lot at Oak Valley School as a base of operations, Laraway School District 70-C Superintendent Joe Salmieri said. The school property lies along the backyard property line of the Crosby home, he said.

If you master your skills, success will be yours.

Don’t take a chance when it comes to health and your physical well-being.

STATE

Board terminates Hastert’s pension The ASSOCIATED PRESS

SPRINGFIELD – Trustees of an Illinois state retirement board on Wednesday terminated the pension that imprisoned former U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert received for his nearly six years of service in the Illinois General Assembly.

The General Assembly Retirement System’s board of trustees voted, 5-2, to end Hastert’s $28,000 annual pension. Hastert, 75, is serving a 15-month prison term in a hush-money case that stemmed from his sexual abuse of students when he taught at an Illinois public school more than 35 years ago. The Republican pleaded guilty in 2015 to federal bank violations and is scheduled to be released Aug. 16.

Hastert’s attorneys declined comment on the decision Wednesday. Hastert has the option of appealing in state court, and the Chicago Tribune reported that Hastert attorney Mark DeBofsky wrote a letter to the board last month saying Hastert intended to appeal any termination or reduction in benefits.

Illinois law allows for the state to re-

News from across the state Governor seeks to oust improperly hired employees

CHICAGO – The administration of Gov. Bruce Rauner said it wants a judge to decide whether state employees who were improperly hired under former Gov. Pat Quinn should keep union contract job protections.

Rauner’s office said in a statement Wednesday at least 36 employees who were improperly hired for Illinois Department of Transportation positions remain employed with the state. The Rauner administration said they can’t be fired because of collective bargaining protections. The office of Rauner, a Republican, said a motion seeking a decision on the issue was filed this week.

The update comes after a report Monday by a court-appointed watchdog charged with looking into patronage hiring at the transportation department detailed how friends and relatives of top Democrats were hired under Quinn, even as many had little or no experience.

voke the pensions of those convicted of felonies connected to their time serving in the state Legislature.

“Neither the indictment nor the disposition of the criminal case implicated any wrongdoing by Mr. Hastert during the time he served in the General Assembly,” DeBofsky wrote.

Board member state Rep. Michael Zalewski, a suburban Chicago Democrat, argued that Hastert’s crimes were designed to protect his political career.

“I would argue his political career is part and parcel with his career as a General Assembly member because his General Assembly career led to his congressional career,” Zalewski said.

But state Rep. David Harris, a Republican from suburban Chicago, said the board should have followed a recommendation from the Illinois Attorney General’s Office to reduce Hastert’s pension.

The Illinois Teachers’ Retirement System previously revoked the pension money Hastert earned for his time as a teacher in Yorkville. He still is eligible for pension funds from his time in Congress.

19-year-old man convicted in 11-year-old’s death

EDWARDSVILLE – Prosecutors said a southern Illinois judge has convicted a 19-year-old man of murder in the shooting death of an 11-year-old boy.

Madison County prosecutors said Ta’Mon F. Ford of Alton was convicted Tuesday after a bench trial in the 2016 death of Ronnell Jones. Prosecutors said Ronnell died at a hospital after he was shot once in the back outside a youth center in Alton.

The state’s attorney’s office said it believes Ford was confronting individuals in an ongoing social media dispute when he fired a 9 mm handgun from a vehicle before it fled the scene Jan. 13, 2016.

They said the boy who died didn’t have any connection to the dispute and was standing in a group of young people when the shooting happened.

a road rage argument for several miles before the tow truck driver opened fire.

Prosecutors said that according to witnesses, the 34-year-old Tillmon reached across his passenger seat and fired multiple shots before driving off.

The 43-year-old Munoz was able to steer his truck to a stop on the shoulder of Interstate 88 near Oak Brook. He died later at Elmhurst Hospital from three wounds.

Authorities said GPS and I-Pass records place the tow truck Tillmon was driving Friday at the scene of the shooting.

Fiancee Michele Salerno said Munoz was headed home when shot.

It wasn’t immediately known if Tillmon has a lawyer.

Card draw determines school board race winner

ROCKFORD – Despite the casting of 517 votes to determine who would sit on the Rockford school board, it took the drawing of a card to decide the winner.

Anthony Dixon on Tuesday drew the queen of clubs from a 52-card deck to break a tie and win the contest to represent Rockford’s Subdistrict A on the school board. Brandi Brown drew the five of hearts.

Brown and Dixon were two of eight write-in candidates in the April 4 race.

They were separated by five votes the day after the election. Election authorities had two weeks to certify results so they can include any ballots mailed on or before Election Day. Illinois’ election code dictates that ties be broken “by lot.” Options include short straw, high card or a coin flip.

Boeing beats 1Q profit forecasts but revenue falls

CHICAGO – Boeing topped expectations for first-quarter profit, but the aerospace giant’s sales fell short of forecasts, and the shares fell in Wednesday-morning trading.

Chicago-based Boeing Co. said Wednesday that it earned $1.45 billion in the first quarter. Excluding nonrepeating gains, the profit came to $2.01 per share.

The average estimate of 10 analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research was $1.91 per share.

Revenue was $20.98 billion. Five analysts surveyed by Zacks expected $21.44 billion. Boeing blamed the disappointing sales number on delayed deliveries of commercial and defense aircraft. The company delivered 169 commercial planes in the quarter, down from 176 a year earlier.

Trump unveils plan to overhaul tax code The ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON – Dismissing concerns about ballooning federal deficits, President Donald Trump on Wednesday proposed dramatic tax cuts for U.S. businesses and individuals – outlining an overhaul his administration promises will spur economic growth and simplify America’s tangle of tax code rules.

His proposal, a one-page sketch short on detail, would reduce the top corporate tax rate by 20 percentage points and allow private business owners to claim the new lower rate for their take-home pay.

It would whittle the number of tax brackets for individuals from seven to three, lower the top tax rate from 39.6 percent to 35 percent and double the standard amount taxpayers could deduct.

It would eliminate the estate tax and reduce taxes on investments, typically paid by the rich. It would further reduce the tax burden for the wealthy by eliminating the catch-all alternative minimum tax, which takes an additional bite out of high-income Americans.

More lower-income Americans would pay no tax at all, and there would be relief – still undefined – for families with child care expenses.

The plan does not propose any budget cuts or tax increases that might offset the lost revenue, a choice that alarms some fiscal conservatives in Trump’s party who have spent years railing about the dangers of deficit spending.

It also does not fully embrace tax proposals backed

by Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan, an essential ally if the president is to make good on his promise to deliver a tax overhaul that creates growth and brings jobs to struggling parts of the country.

Still, “I would never, ever bet against this president. He

“He understands that there are a lot people who work hard and feel like they’re not getting ahead.”

The president’s proposal marks a rehash of an economic theory popularized in the 1980s. Trump officials essentially argue that benefits from the tax cuts will trickle down from higher profits for companies into stronger pay raises for workers and greater consumer spending. This expected surge in growth, in theory, would be enough to keep the federal budget deficit from shooting upward.

Some economists agree, but most budget experts have said it’s unlikely.

“Unfortunately, it seems the administration is using economic growth like magic beans – the cheap solution to all our problems,” said Maya MacGuineas, president of the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.

“But there is no golden goose at the top of the tax cut beanstalk, just mountains of debt.”

Trump’s plan resembles aspects of the tax ideas he campaigned on last year. The right-leaning Tax Foundation

estimated that, even after accounting for growth, the Trump campaign plan would put a $2.6 trillion to $3.9 trillion hole in the budget over 10 years.

“We know this is difficult,” Cohn said. “We know what we’re asking for is a big bite.”

Despite the details provided Wednesday, the proposal leaves significant open questions that could affect taxpayers and the economy.

The administration has yet to decide the incomes at which the new personal tax rates – 10 percent, 25 percent and 35 percent – would apply, meaning that some Americans might see their taxes increase if they get bumped into a higher bracket. It also has yet to spell out how the plan would stop wealthier Americans from exploiting a lower corporate rate to reduce their own taxes.

Administration officials intend to finalize details with members of the House and Senate in the coming weeks for what would be the first massive rewrite of the U.S. tax code since 1986.

The possibility of a deficit increase, unacceptable to some Republicans, means that Trump would need to attract Democratic support to make the overhaul permanent.

Trump team vows pressure on N. Korea The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – The Trump administration told lawmakers Wednesday it will apply economic and diplomatic pressure on North Korea to dismantle its nuclear weapons program, as an extraordinary White House briefing served to tamp down talk of military action against an unpredictable and increasingly dangerous U.S. adversary.

President Donald Trump welcomed Republican and Democratic senators before his secretary of state, defense secretary, top general and national intelligence director conducted a classified briefing. The same team also was meeting with House members in the Capitol to outline the North’s escalating nuclear capabilities and U.S. response options to what they called an “urgent national security threat.”

After weeks of unusually blunt military threats, the joint statement by the agency chiefs said Trump’s approach “aims to pressure North Korea into dismantling its nuclear, ballistic missile and proliferation programs by tightening economic sanctions and pursuing diplomatic measures with our allies and regional partners.” It made no specific mention of military options, though it said the U.S. would defend itself and friends.

The unprecedented meeting in a building adjacent to the White House reflected the increased American alarm over North Korea’s progress in developing a nuclear-tipped missile

A flurry of military activity, by North Korea and the U.S. and its partners on and around the divided Korean Peninsula, has added to the world’s sense of alert.

While tensions have increased since Trump took office, they’ve escalated dramatically in recent weeks as American and other intelligence agencies suggested the North was readying for a possible nuclear test. Although such an explosion hasn’t yet occurred, Trump has sent high-powered U.S. military vessels and an aircraft carrier to

the region in a show of force, while the North conducted large-scale, live-fire artillery drills, witnessed by national leader Kim Jong Un, earlier this week.

On Wednesday, South Korea started installing key parts of a contentious U.S. missile defense system that also has sparked Chinese and Russian concerns.

America’s Pacific forces commander, Adm. Harry Harris Jr., told Congress on Wednesday the system would be operational within days. He said any North Korean missile fired at U.S. forces would be destroyed.

“If it flies, it will die,” Harris said.

The Trump administration has said all options, including a military strike, are on the table. But the administration’s statement after briefing senators – all 100 members were invited – outlined a similar approach to the Obama administration’s focus on pressuring Pyongyang to return to long-stalled denuclearization talks. Trump’s top national security advisers said they were “open to negotiations” with the North, though they gave no indication of when or under what circumstances.

The strategy hinges greatly on the cooperation of China, North Korea’s main trading partner.

“China is the key to this,” said Sen. John McCain, who got a preview of Trump’s message at a dinner with the president this week.

Among the options are returning North Korea to the U.S. state sponsor of terrorism blacklist, which Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said last week was under consideration. His spokesman, Mark Toner, said Wednesday that another tactic is getting nations around the world to close down North Korean embassies and consulates, or suspending them from international organizations.

But sanctions will be the greatest tool at the Trump administration’s disposal. Tillerson is chairing a U.N. Security Council meeting Friday designed to get nations to enforce existing penalties on North Korea and weigh new ones.

Colleges confront sometimes-violent protests

By LISA RATHKE

The Associated Press MONTPELIER, Vt. – Fearing a return to violent protests that roiled campuses in the 1970s, colleges and universities are re-examining how to protect free speech while keeping students and employees safe in a time of political polarization.

Campus police are trying new tactics to try to keep events peaceful, while other schools have abruptly canceled controversial speakers over safety concerns, as the University of California, Berkeley, did with conservative writer Ann Coulter’s appearance, originally scheduled for Thursday.

In response to earlier rioting at Berkeley, the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators last month put on daylong protest preparation and response training sessions at Chapman University in Orange, California, the University of Notre

Dame in Indiana and the University of Maryland, attended by law enforcement from about 40 colleges and universities.

Another training session will take place Thursday at the University of Hartford in Connecticut.

“Our mission is basically to protect the university’s mission, which is to have civil debate and present both sides of an issue and have things be done in a way that’s civil,” said the association’s president, Randy Burba, police chief at Chapman. “It’s a challenge to make that happen when there’s really opposing sides and views, but that’s really what we’re supposed to do.”

Burba declined to offer specifics about the training, to avoid disclosing proprietary police tactics.

But, he said, the sessions were a chance to remind campus police of best practices: to know and be engaged with the college community, do research on speakers, look at what’s happened at other campuses, and meet with the

leaders of protest groups ahead of time to talk about their plans and the college rules.

At Vermont’s Middlebury College last month, protesters shouted down guest speaker Charles Murray, a social scientist who critics say used pseudoscience to link intelligence to race in the 1994 book “The Bell Curve.” Afterward, protesters surrounded Murray and professor Allison Stanger, with a protester pulling Stanger’s hair, police said.

The protesters also climbed onto the car carrying Stanger and Murray and rocked it. Stanger, who was treated for a neck injury and a concussion, said she feared for her life.

Middlebury said last week that 70 people might be subject to discipline, and that more than 30 students so far had been punished, but officials did not elaborate.

Stanger wrote an editorial about her experience, saying the country’s “con-

stitutional democracy will depend on whether Americans can relearn how to engage civilly with one another, something that is admittedly hard to do with a bullying president as a role model.

But any other way forward would be antithetical to the very ideals of the university and of liberal democracy.”

Bertram Johnson, chairman of the political science department that co-sponsored the event, last week wrote in the college newspaper that it was a mistake for him to offer a co-sponsorship without wider consultation.

Complicating efforts to keep the peace is that protesters and event sponsors sometimes aren’t connected to the schools hosting them.

Auburn University last week cited safety concerns in canceling an appearance by white nationalist Richard Spencer, arranged by an outside organization, but a federal judge prevented the school from doing so. Three people were arrested for disorderly conduct.

The Nature analysis focuses on remains from a single mastodon, and five stones found nearby. The mastodon’s bones and teeth evidently were placed on two stones used as anvils and smashed with three stone hammers, to get at nutritious marrow and create raw material for tools.

Patterns of damage on the limb bones looked like what happened in experiments when elephant bones were smashed with rocks. And the bones and stones were found in two areas, each roughly centered on what’s thought to be an anvil.

The stones measured about 8 inches to 12 inches long and weighed up to 32 pounds. They weren’t handcrafted tools, Demere said. The users evidently found them and brought them to the site.

The excavation also found a mastodon tusk in a vertical position, extending down into older layers, which may indicate it had been jammed into the ground as a marker or to create a platform, Demere said.

The fate of the visitors is not clear. Maybe they died out without leaving any descendants, he said.

NEW YORK – A startling new report asserts that the first-known Americans arrived much, much earlier than scientists thought – more than 100,000 years ago – and maybe they were Neanderthals.

If true, the finding would far surpass the widely accepted date of about 15,000 years ago.

Researchers say a site in Southern California shows evidence of humanlike behavior from about 130,000 years ago, when bones and teeth of an elephantlike mastodon evidently were smashed with rocks.

The earlier date means the bone-smashers were not necessarily members of our own species, Homo sapiens. The researchers speculate that these early Californians could instead have been species known only from fossils in Europe, Africa and Asia: Neanderthals, a little-known group called Denisovans, or another human forerunner named Homo erectus.

“The very honest answer is, we don’t know,” said Steven Holen, lead author of the paper and director of

the nonprofit Center for American Paleolithic Research in Hot Springs, South Dakota. No remains of any individuals were found.

Whoever they were, they could have arrived by land or sea. They might have come from Asia via the Beringea land bridge that used to connect Siberia to Alaska, or maybe came across by watercraft along the Beringea coast or across open water to North America, before turning southward to California, Holen said in a telephone interview.

Holen and others present their evidence in a paper released Wednesday by the journal Nature. Not surprisingly, the report was met by skepticism from other experts who don’t think there is enough proof.

The research dates back to the winter of 1992-93. The site was unearthed during a routine dig by researchers during a freeway expansion project in San Diego. Analysis of the find was delayed to assemble the right expertise, said Tom Demere, curator of paleontology at the San Diego Natural History Museum, another author of the paper.

Be cautious in sharing road Crashes involving motorcycles become common each spring in McHenry County.

Drivers fall back into bad habits over the winter, when they mostly don’t have to worry about sharing the road, and motorcyclists still are brushing up on their skills after months of unuse.

Driving motorcycles comes with risks – it’s part of the thrill. But one simple way to lessen the likelihood that the consequence of enjoying the hobby doesn’t turn fatal is to wear a helmet.

Wearing a helmet is not required by the state of Illinois, but there’s no arguing the benefits. Of the 21 reported motorcycle deaths between 2010 and 2017 in McHenry County, only three were wearing helmets.

Across the state, of those who died in a 2014 motorcycle crash, the most recent time frame for which numbers were available, only 28.8 percent wore helmets, according to the Illinois Department of Transportation.

“Most, if not all, motorcycle deaths have a component of head trauma,” McHenry County Coroner Anne Majewski told the Northwest Herald last week. “If there’s any potential for protection from fatal head injuries, helmets are an answer.”

Although helmets can prevent a crash from becoming deadly, an ounce of prevention goes a long way. That responsibility lies with all drivers.

IDOT’s “Start Seeing Motorcycles” campaign encourages drivers to stay alert and use extra caution around motorcycles. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation asks automobile drivers to allow more

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

following distance for motorcycles; reserve judgment in understanding motorcyclists adjust lane position for a purpose and not to be reckless or show off; and complete lane maneuvers slowly, not expecting motorcyclists to always be able to dodge out of the way.

For motorcyclists, local experts recommend they know their bikes and how to use them. Keep all equipment well-maintained, and update your skills by taking a refresher course, such as those offered each spring at McHenry County College and Harper College.

The Motorcycle Safety Foundation also encourages riding defensively and within your own skill limits, being as conspicuous as possible with bright clothing, decals and headlights on, and never operating a motorcycle impaired by alcohol or other drugs. Actually, that last one goes for all drivers.

There have been three deaths in McHenry County from two crashes involving motorcycles so far this spring. McHenry resident Lenny William Jensen III was killed when he was riding a 2010 Harley-Davidson motorcycle in McHenry and it left the road and struck a tree.

A Carpentersville couple was killed in McHenry when, police said, a Wonder Lake woman failed to yield for the motorcycle occupied by Dennis Edwards Spears Jr., 49, and Tanya Schaefer, 42, and the vehicles crashed in the intersection.

Everybody on the road can do their part to make sure such crashes don’t continue.

ANOTHER VIEW

Subcharge on loans should go Millions of Americans have fallen behind on their student loans. Data from the U.S. Department of Education reveal that 42.4 million people owed $1.3 trillion in federal student loans by the end of 2016, and the average amount owed per borrower had increased by 17 percent since 1993.

A rule issued by the Department of Education in 2015 said defaulting borrowers who quickly got their federally guaranteed student loans back on track could not be hit with a 16 percent collection fee.

However, that rule was rescinded last month, offering a potential windfall to 26 private companies that help run this government program.

Fortunately, the withdrawal of the rule generated

so much public outcry that the companies that are now allowed to charge the fee – known as guarantee agencies – quickly announced they won’t actually charge it.

If that sentiment remains, it was the correct response, because most of those who would be subjected to a collection fee are already struggling with debt, and increasing it would only make their problem worse.

As it is, a relatively small share of borrowers would be affected if the new regulations are enforced, according to MarketWatch. Starting in 2010, all new federal student loans were issued by the Department of Education, which doesn’t charge collection fees to borrowers who quickly agree to make good on their defaults.

As a result, students who have taken out federal loans in the past few years need not worry about any potential increase in fees.

However, those who received bank-based loans from the Federal Family Education Loan Program before it was discontinued in 2010 could face higher fees if the guarantee agencies change their minds.

Clearly, student debt is a mounting problem. The law gives defaulting borrowers one shot to rehabilitate their loans – and even arrange payment terms based on their income.

The point of that is to let them fix the mistake they made by defaulting. It defeats the purpose to add a huge surcharge.

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.

“We can’t restore our civilization with somebody else’s babies.”

his district.

The meatpacking industry has long been an immigrant-centric endeavor.

In Upton Sinclair’s novel, “The Jungle” the protagonist was a Lithuanian butchering cattle at the turn-of-the 20th Century in Chicago.

Today those jobs are more likely to be held by immigrants from Latin America, southeast Asia and Africa, and the work is more likely to be done in small towns. Once homogenous small towns have become melting pots of various ethnicities. Whether they have a visa in their hip pocket or not is really of little concern to those who complain about immigrants.

It will usually manifest itself with words like, “This town’s a changin’ – and not for the better.”

Of course, not everyone in small

towns thinks that way. My late aunt, Barb Hamilton, lived in rural Schuyler County all her life. When African immigrants began appearing in her small town to work in a nearby pork-processing plant, she volunteered to help find beds and other furnishings for them.

It didn’t matter to her that these were the first black faces the town of Rushville had seen for many years.

They were her neighbors and she made them feel welcome.

As a teenager, I remember working on a hayrack with a fellow who complained about Mexicans coming to this country to take jobs away from fellows like him. When he wasn’t complaining about Mexicans, he was complaining about the hard work he had to do. Go figure.

Two of the best interns I have ever had, Jenny Lee and Karina Gonzalez, were children of immigrants. They knew how to work hard and took very little for granted. And that has long been the story of this nation. Immigrants come take jobs that native-born

folks turn their noses up at. Their children work hard and achieve the American Dream. And the next generation is fully assimilated into the middle-class.

Unfortunately, some politicians have taken to exploiting fears about immigrants to garner votes. The bottom line is that immigrants have long made this country stronger.

A path to citizenship needs to be offered to those who have come here illegally to support their families and our nation needs to offer more legal immigration opportunities to those, particularly from Latin America, who want to come here.

And we need to be more understanding to those who are already here.

After all, wouldn’t you cross a river to feed your family?

IT’S YOUR WRITE Why call Flight for Life?

To the Editor: I recently read a brief article in this newspaper describing two pedestrians who suffered minor, nonlife-threatening injuries after being hit by an automobile in the area of Riverside Drive and Route 120 in McHenry on Sunday evening.

Much to my bewilderment, the article stated that “Flight for Life” had been summoned, but was not available because of weather conditions.

“Flight for Life” for minor injuries that occurred about three miles from Centegra Hospital? By the time that “FfL” could have been activated, flown and landed, these folks could have been at Centegra, or if truly warranted – dead.

It would have been much faster, safer and less expensive for EMS to transport by ground. I do not dispute the judgment of those on the scene. But really? And folks wonder why health insurance and taxes are so expensive.

Tollway investment applauded

To the Editor: We have the opportunity to sharpen our region’s competitive edge by embracing a state-of-the-art transportation project to improve the 22-mile stretch of the 292-mile Tollway system with the highest

rate of travel delays. The Central Tri-State project was originally proposed to simply bring the crumbling roadway, between Balmoral Avenue and 95th Street, into a “state of good repair.” Basically, we would tear up a major artery linking six interstates, hundreds of thousands of motorists, businesses and Chicago’s two international airports, without really fixing the problem.

What’s needed is added capacity.

I applaud the Illinois Tollway’s vision to invest $4 billion to add lanes, relieve flooding, integrate smart road technology and flex lanes, all without increasing tolls or using taxpayer dollars.

The village of Rosemont partnered with the Tollway to construct the Balmoral Avenue on-ramp to southbound Interstate 294, and the off-ramp from northbound I-294 to Balmoral. Both have been instrumental in attracting entertainment and retail development, serving convention business, and will help provide better access to current projects.

The Pearl District, a mixed-use development, and a 6,500-seat baseball stadium are under construction and will open summer 2018. The more than 100,000 people who visit Rosemont every day enjoy more reliable travel times while the state and Cook County benefit from the tax revenue brought by our success.

I have full confidence the Tollway will work with impacted stakeholders to develop a plan that adds value to their neighbor-

Health care cost is real issue

To the Editor: As we get farther away from the “Day One repeal and replacement of Obamacare,” the realization emerges that this was just D.J. Trump’s bombastic slogan. One with rudimentary computer skills can look up on the internet and compare two elements of health care among industrialized nations, health care spending as a percentage of gross domestic product and a country’s life expectancy ranking.

The USA leads the world in costs at 17.1 percent of GDP with a life expectancy ranking of 31. This ranking has improved under Obamacare, rising from 40th. The

next closest countries in cost, France and Sweden, have a statistical tie for costs at 11.6 percent of GDP and tie for ninth on the life expectancy list.

The U.S. differences are statistically significant. Obamacare shifted the high health care costs to the public sector allowing lower income people to get health care and it improved our life expectancy ranking.

The Republican plan to lower public sector costs by kicking 20 million Americans to the curb doesn’t set well as we can expect to move back down the life expectancy list, not to mention losing 20 million voters.

The real issue lies in lowering health care costs whether they are paid by the public or private sector. Arguing about who pays is a circus sideshow and diverts attention from the real issue.

SPRINGFIELD – Having spent most of my life living in the rural Midwest, I’ve become accustomed to hearing, “I have nothing against immigrants, just illegal immigration.”

Baloney. Our nation’s anti-immigrant undercurrent is fueled by fear, mistrust and apprehension about “others.” Look no further than Iowa Congressman Steve King’s statement: “We can’t restore our civilization with somebody else’s babies.”

Doesn’t he realize we have always been a nation composed of “somebody else’s babies?”

I was particularly incensed by the congressman’s statement because I once lived in what is now his district. But I have to admit King’s mindset reflects a too common viewpoint.

As in much of the rural Midwest, large immigrant populations can be found in meat-packing towns scattered across

BUSINESS

Small businesses feel bigger effects of PR crises

By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Halfway through Valentine’s Day, florist Ajay Kori realized he was in the midst of a disaster.

His company wasn’t going to be able to deliver many of the promised roses and other flowers by the end of the day.

Angry customers started venting online, posting negative reviews of UrbanStems on sites such as Google and Yelp. It was a public relations nightmare.

When a small business has a crisis, it can in some ways be more vulnerable than a behemoth such as United Airlines, which got plenty of attention this month after video of a passenger being dragged off a plane went viral. Small businesses don’t have big revenue streams and cash reserves to cushion them if customers flee. And negative reviews about a local business can turn away prospective customers for weeks, months or longer.

Kori knew he had to move quickly to limit the damage from this past Valentine’s Day and save both his company’s reputation and the business itself.

“We sent out emails personally apologizing to every customer and gave them a refund,” said Kori, whose company is based in Washington, D.C., and delivers in five metropolitan areas around the country. UrbanStems delivered the flowers without charge over the next few days. And it called disappointed recipients to let them know it was the company, not their sweethearts, that let them down.

Ajay Kori (back center), owner of UrbanStems in Washington, helps push a cart Monday loaded with fresh flowers in containers, as they are prepared for delivery at the company’s warehouse in Washington. PR experts say small companies can have an advantage over large businesses: They may be able to react fast in times of crisis.

His response shows the advantage small companies can have: They don’t have multiple tiers of executives who often use precious time discussing what to do rather than taking action, said Scott Sobel, a senior executive at public relations firm kglobal.

“The smaller the business, the more quickly you can react,” Sobel said. “The longer you wait, the more damage is going to happen.”

United was criticized not only for the April 9 incident but its fumbled response. CEO Oscar Munoz issued a se-

ries of statements in which he initially blamed the passenger before apologizing for United’s handling of the situation.

When a company makes a mistake, experts roundly agree it needs to own up to it swiftly and show that it’s sincerely trying to make amends.

“Being disingenuous will hurt you,” Sobel said. “You should try and negotiate ... and ask, ‘how can we make it right for you?’ ” The steps Kori took, which included giving his personal cellphone number to unhappy customers, worked. Most

deleted negative reviews. Some offered to help deliver flowers. Sales are up over last year.

“If you build goodwill, it makes any crisis easier to navigate,” said Beth Monaghan, CEO of InkHouse PR, based in Waltham, Massachusetts. Her company has not worked with Kori.

Sometimes a PR crisis befalls a company through no fault of its own.

Wine importer Selena Cuffe was preparing to unveil South African wine in Dallas in October 2014 when a man visiting the city from Liberia died from Ebola. The wine was being launched at a Sam’s Club, but publicity for the event was canceled amid growing fears that the virus was spreading to the U.S. “We expected about 10,000 people to come” to the launch, said Cuffe, co-owner of Los Angeles-based Heritage Link Brands. She ended up selling fewer than 40 bottles, and was left with nearly 9,000 cases of the wine, which was produced by the family of the late South African President Nelson Mandela.

Mindful of many people’s concern about products from Africa, Cuffe knew she couldn’t do a traditional marketing campaign. So Heritage Link Brands hired a PR agency to plot a strategy that included trying to educate consumers.

Cuffe talked with journalists about the wine, and the fact that it had been produced thousands of miles away from where the Ebola outbreak occurred.

She’s since been able to sell most of the wine, and used a similar strategy after importing wines from Brazil last year, when the Zika virus was in the news.

LOS ANGELES – Jeff Goldblum is returning to the Jurassic Park franchise.

The Hollywood Reporter said Goldblum will reprise his role as Dr. Ian Malcolm in next year’s “Jurassic World” sequel. Goldblum played the mathematician in the first two films of the franchise, 1993’s “Jurassic Park” and its 1997 follow-up “The Lost World: Jurassic Park.”

Representatives for Goldblum didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

“Jurassic World” stars Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard also are set to be back.

This undated file photo provided by RR Auction shows a portion of a diary written in 1945 by a young John F. Kennedy during his brief stint as a journalist after World War II. The diary sold for more than $700,000 Wednesday.

JFK diary written in post-WWII Europe sells for $718,000 BOSTON – A diary kept by a young John F. Kennedy during his brief stint as a journalist after World War II in which he reflected on Hitler and the weakness of the United Nations sold for more than $700,000 on Wednesday.

Boston-based RR Auction said the diary sold for $718,750, far exceeding the presale estimate of $200,000. Joseph Alsop, a JFK collector from Beverly, outbid one other live and six telephone bidders in a packed house for the 61-page diary. Alsop, 71, plans to add it to his personal collection, auction officials said.

The diary is mostly typed but includes 12 handwritten pages. It was written in 1945 when the 28-year-old Kennedy was a correspondent for Hearst newspapers and traveled through a devastated Europe.

Executive Vice President Bobby Livingston said the auction was thrilling, with bidders from around the country vying for the personal observations of the man who’d become president.

“My expectations were exceeded, but I’m not surprised because it’s such a significant and historic manuscript,” Livingston said.

The diary’s new owner is the nephew of Joseph Alsop V and the son of Stewart Alsop, two brothers and influential columnists during the Kennedy presidency.

“I’m happy to own it,” said Alsop, who was 16 when he met Kennedy at his uncle’s home in 1960. “I think it’s a wonderful object and a tribute to Kennedy’s development as an individual. He displays a remarkable degree of insight into world affairs at a very young age.”

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. – Martin Short stripped down to a nude bodysuit to perform a musical number and became a human bagpipe in the hands of a large, kilt-wearing man – all for the sake of the environment.

Short was the multi-talented master of ceremonies at “Stand Up! For the Planet,” an all-star comedy benefit for the Natural Resources Defense Council. With performances

by Larry David, Pete Davidson, Jerrod Carmichael and Tig Notaro, the event raised $1.4 million to support litigation against President Donald Trump’s environmental policies, according to organizers.

“Do you realize if a drone hit this crowd, Trump eliminates all his problems?” Short said. “That’s the kind of power we have.”

Cosby, lawyer speak out as sex assault trial looms

PHILADELPHIA – Bill Cosby and his delegates are speaking out in select media interviews Wednesday, a month before jury selection starts in his Pennsylvania sex assault trial.

Cosby told a black news service that he is working on new material and hopes to resume his entertainment career.

“I think about walking out on stage somewhere in the United States of America and sitting down in a chair and giving the performance that will be the beginning of

the next chapter of my career,” Cosby said in what his publicist described as an email exchange with the National Newspaper Publishers Association that began several months ago.

“I miss it all and I hope that day will come.

I have some routines and storytelling that I am working on,” Cosby said.

Cosby, 79, also told the outlet that he lost his vision suddenly two years ago, calling out one morning to his wife, “I can’t see.” He did not elaborate on the cause of the disability, and publicist Andrew Wyatt declined to discuss the actor’s diagnosis or medical history.

Lawyers have told the trial judge that Cosby is legally blind, making it impossible to even identify women who said he sexually assaulted them over the past 50 years.

Johnny Depp’s ex-managers call him ‘habitual liar’ Johnny Depp’s former business team is calling the star “a habitual liar” after Depp said in an interview that his onetime managers “clearly let him down.”

Depp sued The Management Group in January for more than $25 million, charging fraud and negligence. The Management Group countersued, saying Depp spent lavishly on homes, private jets, art and memorabilia in spite of its warnings.

In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Depp questioned why he wasn’t dropped as a client by the group over his spending.

Enjoy chocolate in moderation Dear Doctors: I have read about the health benefits of dark chocolate for the brain and the heart, but that it must contain about 80 percent chocolate to be effective. How much sugar or additives (nuts, fruit) can be added before chocolate loses its health benefits?

Dear Reader: Ah, chocolate, a food that so often inspires a passionate response. The fact it also offers a host of proven health benefits seems almost too good to be true.

A number of studies over the years have linked cocoa, the basic building block of chocolate, to cardiovascular benefits, cancer prevention, a lower risk of stroke, better blood flow to the brain, lower blood pressure and improved insulin metabolism.

Cocoa also contains important minerals, including zinc, iron, magnesium and potassium.

With your question about the percentage of cocoa in a chocolate product, you’ve zeroed in on the vital detail. At what point does chocolate go from being just another kind of candy to becoming a beneficial food?

Let’s start with a bit of background.

Chocolate is derived from cocoa beans, which are the seeds of the cacao tree, a small, shade-loving evergreen in the tropical regions of the Americas. These beans are high in a substance known as flavonols – sometimes also referred to as flavonoids.

Flavonols, which fall into the category of antioxidants, have anti-inflammatory properties.

The catch is that cocoa – or pure chocolate – is quite bitter. That means sweetening agents and milk solids are added to make it more palatable. Depending on the percentage of cocoa in any particular preparation, the result is a product that contains varying degrees of sugar and calories. And while cocoa has proven health benefits, sugar definitely does not.

When it comes to the health benefits of

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Elizabeth Ko and Eve Glazier chocolate, the higher the percentage of cocoa content, the better. Sixty percent cocoa is widely considered the minimum when looking to a chocolate product for health benefits. But don’t rely solely on the words “dark chocolate” when looking at the label.

In the U.S., a product with as little as 35 percent cocoa may be designated as dark chocolate. European chocolates set the bar a bit higher, with a minimum of 43 percent cocoa. And if you’re one of those who love white chocolate, we’re afraid there’s some bad news. White chocolate is made from the fat of the cocoa bean and contains no actual cocoa at all.

And now, amid all this amazing chocolate news, a bit of a reality check.

A group of scientists from Harvard who reviewed the data from 24 studies pinpointing various health benefits associated with cocoa found the average dose of flavonols ingested by the test subjects was 400 milligrams a day. Turns out, that’s the equivalent of (are you sitting down?) eight bars of dark chocolate, or 30 bars of milk chocolate a day.

If you want to match that intake, cocoa supplements are available that skip the sweeteners and fillers that make chocolate so delicious. But if you’re going to add actual chocolate to your diet, limit it to 2 ounces a day, and go with as high a percentage as you will actually enjoy.

ANSWER TO PREVIOUS PUZZLE C H A N C E

respect the rules parents set for their children because there usually are good reasons for them. I also think that for your in-laws to ignore your wishes as they have been doing is disrespectful, and your husband should consider that before concluding his parents have the right to ignore them.

Dear Abby: A couple of months ago, my husband and I received a very nice “save the date” for a wedding in August in a town nearby. There were many nice photos of the engaged couple on the card. The problem is, we have no idea who they are.

We called our families to ask if they had received one, too, thinking maybe it was a long-lost relative. I even went so far as checking social media, thinking we might have friends in common, but we don’t. I’m hoping the actual invitation may offer more clues, but I don’t think it will.

While this was clearly addressed to us, my fear is it was intended for someone else who may not be “saving the date,” and it may cause some tension within their family. What would be proper when the invitation arrives?

Do I check “will not attend” and send it back, or should I include a note with an explanation? – Save The Date In Wisconsin Dear Save The Date: You are a nice person. A simple “regret that we cannot attend” should be sufficient, and by all means include the note.

SOFTBALL: HAMPSHIRE 8, PRAIRIE RIDGE 5

Whips’ potent offense clicks

By ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Delaney Rummell and Peyton DeChant combined for six hits and six runs Wednesday, but Hampshire softball coach Kelly Wasilewski was just as quick to list the talent up and down the Whip-Purs’ lineup.

“It’s amazing ... but It’s Delaney, it’s Peyton, it’s Melissa (Esparza), it’s Sarah (Bowen), it’s Gwen (Malecke),” Wasilewski said of the Whips’ first five hitters against Prairie Ridge. “They can all hit it over the fence any day. To have all five of them in the lineup, back to back, it’s just awesome.”

After Hampshire lost by 10-run rule against Prairie Ridge in the teams’ first meeting, the Whips answered with an 8-5 Fox Valley Conference victory to jump over the Wolves for second place in the standings.

Hampshire improved to 13-7 overall and 6-3 in the FVC, and Prairie Ridge fell to 12-4 and 5-4. Huntley leads the conference at 8-0, while Crystal Lake South (5-3 FVC) was idle Wednesday.

“We have not played well against this team since I’ve been here,” Wasilewski said. “This is the first time we’ve figured it out, and finally hit the ball really well and played together as a team.”

Rummell (3 for 4) led off and had a pair of doubles, a home run and three runs scored in her first three trips to the plate. DeChant went 3 for 3 and had homers in her final two at-bats, driving in a

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Hampshire’s Delaney Rummell circles the bases after hitting a home run in the fourth inning Wednesday at Prairie Ridge. Hampshire won, 8-5. game-high four runs and scoring three.

DeChant’s first homer, a solo shot, gave Hampshire a 5-4 lead in the third after both teams scored three runs in the first and one in the second. She added a two-run homer in the fifth, padding her team’s lead to 8-5.

Her first came against starting pitcher Hailey Baker and her second against Haley Barnes.

“It was in the river (just off the plate), so I had to lunge for it a little bit,” DeChant said of her two-run blast on a 0-2

count. “I thought I caught the under part of it, so I didn’t expect it to go over. I thought it was going to be a pop-up to the outfield, but the ball carried on it.”

Rummell nearly hit a home run in the first, chasing her Illinois Chill teammate, Emmie Farnam, all the way to the fence in center field. She laced a double down the left-field line in the second before hitting a long home run to left-center field in the fourth, giving Hampshire a 6-4 lead at the time.

“We definitely came today ready to

play more than last time,” said Rummell, who is committed to Illinois. “Our coach told us to go up there, look for our pitch to drive and, once it comes, to meet it and it will fly.”

Rummell committed to the Illini in January despite missing her freshman year after an ACL surgery, while DeChant has been committed to Loyola since her sophomore year.

Also for Hampshire, Sarah Bowen went 2 for 4 with an RBI, Gwen Malecke was 1 for 3 and drove in a run, and Morgan Haefling went 2 for 4 with an RBI. Prairie Ridge scored three runs in the first on RBI doubles by Baker (2 for 4, two doubles), Kaleigh O’Brien and Farnam (2 for 4) against Hampshire starter Katie Del Re. Emily Egger entered and recorded the final out of the first and went on to earn the win. Egger, a freshman, tossed 51/3 innings and allowed one earned run on six hits with three walks and two strikeouts.

“My coach usually tells us to make sure that we’re changing up the timing,” said Egger, who relied on a mixture of fastballs and changeups. “I knew I had to make sure I hit my spots.”

Jasmine Lopez entered in the seventh for the save, getting a 4-3 double play to end the game. Baker took the loss, allowing six runs on nine hits over five innings with six strikeouts and two walks.

Mackenzie Scully and Shannon Donaldson each had a hit and an RBI for Prairie Ridge.

CARY-GROVE GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD

Trojans coach Anderson receives national award

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com CARY – Bree Bogucki represents perhaps the unlikeliest success story to come out of Cary-Grove’s powerful girls track and field program.

Trojans coach Mark Anderson has cranked out McHenry County and Fox Valley Conference champion teams, along with state champions and medalists.

But Anderson’s mentoring with Bogucki, a girl who ran 12-minute miles three years ago when she joined the team, landed him one of the biggest honors of his career. The 17-year coach was recognized at the school Wednesday night with the Brooks Inspiring Coaches Award, one of two given out nationwide.

Brooks representatives have been in the area since Monday recording videos of and interviews with Anderson. He was unaware that his entire team, parents and colleagues were gathering at the high school. His wife, Danielle, told him they Mark needed to go to school Anderson for some pictures.

When Anderson walked in, there were lines of loudly cheering athletes on each side greeting him.

“This is beyond what I ever expected,” said Anderson, who spoke for about 3 minutes. “I’m floored that you guys (at Brooks) think that of the program and me, and I’m floored that Bree and her mom (Mary Ellen) took the step

to do that.”

It was an easy decision for Mary Ellen Bogucki to nominate Anderson, one of more than 500 nominees from the U.S. and Canada. Brooks chose one boys coach and one girls coach for track and field. C-G will receive $2,500 in cash for the program and $10,000 in apparel.

Bree, who is a high-functioning autistic, was struggling her sophomore year when her sister, Kailey, went away to college. Mary Ellen said Bree was depressed and not in a good place. She was leery that joining the track team would help. But with Anderson’s nurturing, Bree started to love track, even though she was not initially very good at it.

“He believed in me; he made me believe in myself,” Bree said. “I kept working hard. I feel like running just gives me mental and physical strength and

gives me something to work toward.”

Bree now runs at Harper College in Palatine, which won the NJCAA Division III National Championship, and was an All-American.

“As time went on, I kept trusting him more,” Mary Ellen said. “She went from running a 12-minute mile to 5:42.

Last March, I wanted to honor him but didn’t know how to. I just stumbled on [Brooks’] website and I was like, ‘This is it.’ ” Steve DeKoker, Brooks’ manager of sports marketing programs, said the company looks for criteria such as inclusivity, mentoring, looking at athletes as good people and coaches who use their sport to train good citizens, as well as athletes.

“Mark exudes all those things and then some,” DeKoker said.

Gators score in every inning to rally, take sole possession of FVC lead

q THE NUMBER

11

Total runs scored by Jacobs in the second and third innings

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

On a day with weather that favored the batters, the Gators responded by scoring at least one run in every inning and finishing with at least one hit by every member of the starting lineup.

After a pitchers’ duel in the first

game of the series, Wednesday was all about the offense. South jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the first, highlighted by a two-run homer by Nick Wolski.

The Golden Eagles’ bats woke up in the second inning when they sent nine to the plate and scored five runs. Braeden Wegner gave Jacobs the lead on a grand slam that sparked the visitors’ bench.

After South (19-1, 10-1 FVC) tied the score in the second, Jacobs scored six times in the third. Cameron Arvidson hit a two-run, pinch-hit single, and Adam Kale cleared the bases with a three-run double to put the Golden Eagles up, 11-5.

The momentum was on the side of Jacobs, but South slowly got back in it.

After a single run in the third, the Gators put together some two-out magic in the fourth with back-to-back triples by Michael Swiatly and Noah Tyrrell and scored their third run of the inning on a single by Scott Skwarek.

With the offense starting to click,

South needed someone on the mound to slow down the Jacobs attack, and Wednesday that pitcher was Luke Dunham, who entered in the third and finished with 42/3 innings pitched. He allowed three runs on four hits.

“We have such a good offense that I knew if I threw strikes and relied on my defense to make plays, we had a chance,” Dunham said.

South tied the score in the sixth on a single by Brent Chubb and took the lead when Chubb scored on an error.

South was led by Ryan Parquette with four hits and Tyrrell and Skwarek with three hits apiece.

Jacobs (13-7, 4-7) was led by Wegner, who finished with five RBIs. “We are still learning that it’s a 21out game,” Jacobs coach Jamie Murray said. “We are still learning to close games, and we need to take care of the small stuff. We are a young team who is still learning.”

SOFTBALL: DUNDEE-CROWN 16, MARIAN CENTRAL 3

D-C turns tight game into rout with late surge

By TIM FROEHLIG

sports@nwherald.com CARPENTERSVILLE – There were only two seniors in the Dundee-Crown softball team’s starting lineup during its 16-3 nonconference victory over Marian Central on Wednesday, and those players were slotted in the eighth and ninth spots in the batting order.

It would be easy to assume that means the Chargers lack experience.

But that assumption would be wrong.

The Chargers’ No. 3 hitter, junior Andrea Conway, had a three-hit afternoon and drove in five runs, which included her first homer of the season. This is her third year as a varsity starter.

Junior cleanup hitter Claire Weeks (2 for 5), who had a bases-clearing threeRBI double in a nine-run top of the sixth, also is in her third season as a starter.

Ruggles, who is usually the team’s No. 1 starter, came on in relief after the Chargers fell behind by two runs in the second inning. She responded by striking out eight and allowing one extra-base hit over the next 51/3 innings to earn her 11th win.

Nine players scored for the Chargers and 10 reached base safely. Junior second baseman Andrea Conway’s five RBIs were a season high.

Conway also hit her first homer of the season. proved to 12-7 with the win. “Our core group is battle tested, and most of our lineup has varsity experience.

“The even better part is, most of these girls had already played organized softball or travel softball with each other prior to even arriving here,

and most still do. I feel like this program has turned a corner. I’m proud of these girls. This program has come a long way.”

Having a coach who believes in her players so quickly has done wonders for D-C’s confidence and team chemistry, said junior pitcher Sydney Ruggles, who picked up her 11th victory of the spring after the Chargers fell behind 3-1 after two innings.

“The fact Coach Beatty showed confidence enough in us to put us in pressure-packed situations when we were so young has definitely made a difference,” Ruggles said. “You can see it starting to pay off. We all believe in each other. We’re always willing to lay everything on the line for each other.

We could be a real dangerous team by the time the playoffs arrive if we keep working hard.”

Beatty also started two freshmen Wednesday: Megan Thompson and Cassidy Randl. Both scored a run, and Randl executed a flawless sacrifice bunt that put Thompson in scoring position in the fourth inning.

“It’s those little things, the attention to detail, that are going to determine how far we go,” Conway said.

After falling behind, 3-1, the Char-

gers scored 15 unanswered runs. They sent 12 batters to the plate in their ninerun sixth inning to pull ahead for good.

In the seventh, they sent nine batters to the plate and added five more runs.

For Marian Central (5-6), starting pitcher Maddie Peters had a solid outing going and had allowed only two runs and scattered four hits through five innings before struggling to open the sixth. She also had a double, walk and an RBI. Senior Emily Miller, who was 2 for 3 with a walk, thinks some of the team’s recent struggles are as much mental, as anything.

“Coach (Erin Widmayer) just keeps encouraging us to be positive and to realize that even if we make mistakes, we have to put them behind us and overcome them,” Miller said. “When we face adversity, we can’t hang our heads or fall flat. We just need to learn from our mistakes and we’ll keep getting better.

“We were ahead the majority of this game. Sometimes, all it takes is one big play, or one big effort, to change the momentum of a game. We need to stay focused as a team and keep that in mind at all times. Things will improve. I’m confident about that, and I know we all still believe in each other.”

CRYSTAL LAKE – Despite the success Crystal Lake South’s baseball team has had this season, coming back after allowing 11 runs to Jacobs in the first three innings Wednesday looked as though it would be a daunting task. But as the Gators have done all season, they stayed focused, didn’t panic and got back into the game one inning at a time.

“I told the kids just to stay up, keep your heads up, have a good approach at the plate and we would have a chance,” South coach Brian Bogda said.

The Gators slowly chipped away at the six-run deficit and allowed only one run after the third inning. The Gators went on to defeat Jacobs, 13-12, in a Fox Valley Conference game at South that left the Gators alone atop the FVC after Huntley’s 6-4 loss to Cary-Grove on Wednesday.

Maurer had a double, single and two RBIs in Huntley’s 8-7 victory over Jacobs on Friday that completed the Fox Valley Conference sweep and kept the Raiders tied with Crystal Lake South atop the league standings heading into Wednesday’s games.

He also had an RBI single in the Raiders’ six-run seventh inning of that game.

He had a walk-off double in the previous week to beat Dundee-Crown, 4-3.

nonconference losses last week to Gurnee Warren and Kishwaukee River Conference-leading Burlington Central.

4. Jacobs (13-6): The Golden Eagles had a rough week with three losses to Huntley but came back to beat Conant on Saturday. First baseman Ryan McGorian had a big week with three home runs and nine RBIs in his past three games.

5. Cary-Grove (12-7): The Trojans lost two of three to Dundee-Crown and now have four FVC losses. They still will be a tough team to face with one of the best pitching staffs around.

NORTHWEST HERALD POWER RANKINGS (Records through Tuesday) 1. Crystal Lake South (18-1): The Gators dropped to No. 2 for a week, but they’re back in the top spot after McHenry lost a pair of games. South was tied with Huntley at 9-1 in the FVC heading into Wednesday’s games.

2. Huntley (16-3): The Red Raiders are red hot, riding an 11-game winning streak into play Wednesday. They lost their first FVC game to Crystal Lake Central and won their next nine.

3. McHenry (12-5): The Warriors are still very much in the FVC race but suffered two

NOTEWORTHY Big invitation: Cary-Grove sophomore Quinn Priester had a big week. First, he visited TCU and committed to Horned Frogs coach Jim Schlossnagle on Monday.

Priester also was selected as one of 108 players invited to Team USA Baseball’s Tournament of Stars, an event from which the USA 18U National Team will be selected this summer in Cary, North Carolina.

Hampshire coach John Sarna, who has ties with USA Baseball, contacted the Northwest Herald with the news, even before Priester and

Proud Sponsor of Athlete of the Week

his family had heard.

“At the national level, it’s a big deal for him,” Sarna said.

Game of adjustments: Dundee-Crown junior left-hander Erik Hedmark had two starkly contrasting games last week. Crystal Lake South hit Hedmark well in a 9-2 loss Monday, but the Northern Illinois University commit bounced back with a strong performance to beat C-G, 12-3, on Saturday.

An interesting aspect of each game was the scouting report and game plan. On Monday, South felt D-C’s pitchers in the previous two games had worked outside a lot, so the Gators looked to take Hedmark the other way.

Perhaps as an adjustment to that, D-C coach Matt Mueller developed a different game plan for C-G. “We were working inside today, not so much outside because they do a good job of hitting to the opposite field,” D-C catcher Jon Mays said. “So we were working on jamming them inside, and it worked out really well. He did a good job hitting his spots and doing what he was supposed to. Our defense behind him had his back.”

Engelking looks tough: Crystal Lake South pitcher Andrew Engelking is not overpowering with big strikeout numbers, as are some of his counterparts, but he has been extremely stingy with opponents this season.

Jacobs was the latest victim for Engelking, who raised his record to 5-0 with a 2-0 victory Tuesday in which he threw 77 pitches, 55 for strikes.

Golden Eagles coach Jamie Murray said

Engelking reminded him of one of his former pitchers, Evan Blunk, with his efficiency. “[Engelking] has low pitch counts; he’s around the strike zones. If he misses, he’s one ball off, and the next pitch he’s on the other side of the plate,” Murray said. “If we don’t swing at it, he doesn’t waste any pitches.”

Strong getting stronger: Huntley senior Jeff Heinrich, the Raiders’ starting third baseman, came to bat twice last week in pinch-hit situations. Heinrich, a Northwest Herald All-Area first-team selection last season, has been recovering from a hamstring strain for a couple of weeks.

The Raiders have done well without Heinrich and stand to get him back in time to see South, C-G and McHenry, three of the FVC’s best teams.

WHAT TO WATCH Jacobs vs. Crystal Lake South The Gators hosted Jacobs on Wednesday, then the teams return to Jacobs for Thursday’s series finale.

Huntley vs. Cary-Grove The teams played Wednesday at C-G and head back to Huntley on Thursday.

Johnsburg vs. Woodstock The two Kishwaukee River Conference foes meet Monday, Tuesday and Thursday next week in their league series. Johnsburg was 6-1 in the KRC entering Wednesday and may have the best shot at catching KRC-leading Burlington Central.

By the time Boston’s 20-4 run was over, so were the Bulls.

Even worse for Butler, the load he’s been carrying most of the season appeared to catch up with him in that final quarter, as he went 0 for 2 from the field, as well as nursing a sore knee that is in serious need of some rest.

“I’ll be all right,” Butler said, doing his best to downplay his condition.

“We’re all nicked up this time of year.”

Maybe so, but not everyone is averaging 41.6 minutes a game like Butler.

“We run a lot to Jimmy,” Wade said of Butler’s night. “It’s not about the shot selection. We put the ball in his hands.

At the same time they are keying in on him. He made the right plays. He did

what he was supposed to do.”

So how did it all fall apart so quickly then?

“We had some empty possessions,” coach Fred Hoiberg said.

Call it life without Rajon Rondo just continuing to haunt this team.

Before Rondo went down with a fractured right thumb, the Bulls were up 2-0 in the series, having top-seeded Boston gasping for air. Without Rondo, it’s been three straight losses and few answers.

Even on a night in which Isaiah Canaan held Isaiah Thomas in check (1 for 10 from 3-point range), Wade scored 26 points and Lopez chipped in 14, the hole Rondo left is still being felt.

BOSTON – Dwyane Wade delivered the bad news.

Like Jimmy Butler needed more at that point Wednesday night.

“Jimmy, there’s no cold water in there,” Wade said, as Butler sat surrounded by the media discussing a fourth-quarter meltdown that now has the Bulls on the brink of elimination.

“Word?” Butler said, thinking Wade was kidding.

Hoping he was kidding.

“It’s freezing in there,” Wade said.

“Ahhhh,” Butler sighed.

It was at that point that it seemed to hit the three-time All-Star that not only was he leaving the TD Garden with a Game 5 108-97 loss, but not even a warm shower.

“Win at all costs,” Butler said when asked what was next for the Bulls in Game 6, facing a 3-2 deficit in the best-ofseven first-round playoff series. “That should be motivation enough, to know that if we don’t win this next game, we ain’t playing no more this season.”

If the Bulls have another fourth quarter like they did in Game 5, home for the summer is exactly where they’ll be come late Friday night.

Taking a two-point lead into that final quarter, thanks to a Butler 3-pointer at the horn, it appeared that the twogame playoff losing streak had a chance to end and all would be right in Butler’s world again.

But with just under 10 minutes left in the game, Butler instead watched his team self-destruct, turning the ball over, missing shots, not executing picks, and along the way getting technical fouls whistled on both Wade and Robin Lopez

Lester loses ahead of return to Boston

By GORDON WITTENMYER

PITTSBURGH – Originally, Jon Lester was scheduled to pitch Friday’s series opener in Boston instead of Wednesday night’s series finale in Pittsburgh.

It would have been his first start there in a uniform other than Boston’s, in his first trip back since an unpleasant departure in 2014 that included a lowball extension offer and eventual trade to Oakland.

“It’ll be nice just to go back and not have to worry about all that hoopla and just kind of hang out,” Lester said. “But at the same time, it would be kind of fun to pitch there, as well.”

That had to look even a lot more fun by the end of Wednesday night’s second inning in a 6-5 loss to the Pirates at PNC Park.

If nothing else, the reception would have been better at Fenway Park. It couldn’t have felt much worse.

On a night Lester considered it “probably the best I’ve thrown the ball all year,” the Pirates peppered him for five runs on seven hits in the first two innings – a stretch that included three infield hits and an error on catcher Willson Contreras’ dropped tag attempt that yielded an unearned run.

He retired 11 of 12 after that damage,

until Josh Bell’s one-out homer in the sixth.

Lester, who swapped places in the rotation with Jake Arrieta because of the Pirates’ early struggles against lefties, allowed only two runs in his first three starts combined – including seven scoreless innings against these Pirates at Wrigley Field.

“I had better stuff today than I did that last start [against the Pirates] when I threw seven shutout,” Lester said.

WHITE SOX 5, ROYALS 2

Sox finally give Quintana run support, sweep K.C.

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

CHICAGO – Jose Quintana brought some ’tude to the ballpark Wednesday, Avisail Garcia brought his red-hot bat, and the White Sox completed a threegame sweep of the struggling Royals with a 5-2 win for their fourth victory in a row.

It was the first win of the season for Quintana, who was the first Sox pitcher to make three straight starts of at least five innings with zero run support since 1967. Jose Abreu and Todd Frazier gave him two-out, back-to-back RBI doubles against right-hander Nate Karns in the first, and Garcia broke a tie with a 437foot homer to center, his fourth of the season, in the sixth.

He told me, ‘That’s for you,’ ” a beaming Quintana (1-4) said after striking out 10 over six innings of two-run (one earned) ball.

Quintana has been a poster child for pitching consistently well through poor run support throughout his career, but

with trade rumors swirling around him throughout the offseason and spring training, he hadn’t been at his best in his first four starts. He entered with a 6.17 ERA. The All-Star lefty was determined to keep the somewhat surprising Sox on a roll, and they claimed their fourth straight victory to improve to 11-9.

Jose Quintana “I saw it in his face,” third baseman Frazier said. “He had some look about him, getting mad at me because I didn’t get the ball back to him in time. I love that stuff.

“I’ll definitely make sure I get it to him quicker from now on. He had a mentality about him, you know, put fear in some hitters’ eyes.”

The Royals, losers of eight straight, haven’t put much fear into anyone lately, but the Sox did what they needed to keep them down.

“Yeah, it was a mission,” Quintana said. “Everybody was doing his job. I

needed this outing. It was extra motivation to win my first one. … I threw the ball well.”

“The thing today was he commanded both sides of the plate,” catcher Geovany Soto said. “Both sides with breaking pitches and elevating hitters’ eye levels with [fastballs].”

Manager Rick Renteria told Quintana after his sixth inning, when he was at 99 pitches, that he would give in to the lefty’s wishes and let him pitch the seventh if the game was tied because Renteria wanted him to have a chance for the decision. When Garcia put the Sox in front, Renteria turned it over to relievers Dan Jennings, Tommy Kahnle, Nate Jones and David Robertson, who combined for three scoreless innings.

“The epitome of a solid bullpen,” Renteria said. “They’ve been excellent.”

Jennings extended his scoreless streak to six appearances, and Robertson collected his fifth save and 76th as a Sox, passing Terry Forster for sixth all time.

SPORTS BRIEFS Raiders bring running back Lynch out of retirement

ALAMEDA, Calif. – Marshawn Lynch is coming out of retirement after agreeing on a two-year deal with the Raiders that paved the way for a trade to his hometown team in Oakland.

Lynch passed a physical Wednesday and agreed to a restructured two-year contract.

Those were the final steps needed before Seattle could trade his rights along with a 2018 sixth-round pick to the Raiders for a 2018 fifth-rounder.

NFL Network said Lynch would get a $3 million base deal this season, with a chance to make an additional $2 million if he rushes for at least 1,000 yards.

Beal, Wall lead Wizards past Hawks for 3-2 series lead

WASHINGTON – Bradley Beal scored 27 points, and John Wall added 20 points and 14 assists, leading Washington to a 103-99 victory over Atlanta in Game 5 on Wednes-

day night for a 3-2 series lead in the firstround Eastern Conference playoff series.

Dennis Schroder led the Hawks with 29 points, making a career high-tying five 3s, and 11 assists. But after his basket from beyond the arc pulled Atlanta within 101-99 with 70 seconds left, Wall responded with a 21-foot pull-up jumper.

Predators beat Blues in Game 1

ST. LOUIS – P.K. Subban had a goal and two assists and Vernon Fiddler scored with 5:05 left, sending the Nashville Predators to a 4-3 victory over the St. Louis Blues in Game 1 of their second-round playoff series Wednesday night.

The Predators lost Kevin Fiala to an ugly leg injury in the second period and blew a 3-1 lead before Fiddler poked a loose puck

by Jake Allen in the third. It was the fifth career playoff goal for the 36-year-old Fiddler, who did not play in Nashville’s first-round sweep of the Blackhawks.

Best scenario for Pace, Bears is to trade down BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush NFL mock drafts are really nothing more than an exercise in folly and arrogance.

After all, even general managers, personnel directors, head coaches and team owners can’t know for sure what they’re going to do with their picks until they are on the clock because their decisions are based on all that comes in front of them or comes to them, with the exception of the No. 1 overall pick in the draft, so how can I pretend to know what the Bears or anyone else is going to do?

All we can do is talk to as many people as possible who are involved in the process, chart out all that information and then give you our best educated guess.

Even in that, however, there is a wrinkle. My best friends in the GM and coaching ranks all know each other, and it is often prudent, at times even necessary, for them to run misdirection plays on each other.

For instance, my buddies Sam, Oscar and Moses all know I’m talking to all of them and they are picking 14, 15 and 16, respectively.

All have prospects they like that they don’t want the others to take, so they may tell me they don’t like those players to keep the competition down on them and claim they do like others to encourage the other clubs to look closer at them.

It’s not lying. It’s playing the game, so an additional challenge is to rate how straight each of my buddies and sources is being with me.

I have no idea what Bears GM Ryan Pace is going to do with the third overall pick in the draft, but I can tell you some things I’m pretty sure he’s thinking about based on what I’m hearing from both sources close to him and other folks around the league.

I think Pace really likes Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson and would take him at No. 3 if his team were just a bit closer to being competitive.

But with glaring needs at safety, cornerback, five-technique and tight end, and possibly a serious need at left tackle and wide receiver, I believe he has deemed Watson a luxury at No. 3 he can’t afford.

While Alabama tight end O.J. Howard would be fascinating and exciting and would fill a significant

Ryan Pace begins his third NFL draft as Bears general manager Thursday.

need, I’m hearing Pace and company believe their need for playmakers on defense – which is the top strength of this draft – is great enough that is where they would most likely look at No. 3.

However, because the defensive playmakers run 12 to 15 players deep at the top of this draft, and because there most likely will be a team or three looking to trade up either for a quarterback or one of those defenders, I’m hearing there is a decent chance the Bears could be a team to move down.

Pace confirmed Wednesday there are exploratory calls of that nature taking place.

I think the top three players on the Bears’ board might be Solomon Thomas, Jamal Adams and Malik Hooker, and I think it’s most likely all three will be available when the third pick comes around.

But I’m also hearing it’s quite possible two of them could still be available at, say, 12 where the Bears could trade down to if the Browns are as desperate as I’m hearing they are to trade up and grab Mitchell Trubisky after using the top overall pick on Myles Garrett.

If they can make it, that deal most likely would cost the Bears the third overall pick and net them the 12th pick, two second-round picks – 33 and 52 – and a fourth-rounder.

If the Bears could make the trade, still get either Thomas or Hooker at 12, which I think they could, and set themselves up to pick 33, 36, 52 and 67 on the second day, that would be a great first round.

Draft trades are impossible to force or predict, but in his third draft for the Bears, it’s time for Pace to make a little magic, and that deal would certainly qualify.

Pro Football Weekly NFL mock draft 1. Browns – EDGE Myles Garrett, Texas A&M: Garrett is the best player in the 2017 NFL College Draft by a significant margin.

2. 49ers – RB Leonard Fournette, LSU: With Carlos Hyde, running back is one of the few areas where the 49ers don’t have a huge need, but this is the first step in a complete rebuilding program.

3. PROJECTED TRADE — Browns (from Bears) — QB Mitchell Trubisky, North Carolina: Browns owner Jimmy Haslam hasn’t learned his lesson after blowing a first-round pick on Johnny Manziel so he gives the Bears the 12th pick, two second-rounder’s and a fourth to take Trubisky who probably isn’t worth the 12th pick the Browns had, but it is his football team and he doesn’t have a knowledgeable personnel guy running this show who can save him from himself. Trubisky may prove to be a great quarterback, he just isn’t value here.

4. Jaguars – QB Deshaun Watson, Clemson: We didn’t see this one coming, but the rumor mills are buzzing that Tom Coughlin has seen enough of Blake Bortles and that he just won’t be able to help himself if he can get Watson without having to move up to do it.

5. Titans – TE O. J. Howard, Alabama: This is extremely high for a tight end, and a bit of a luxury for a team that still needs help in the secondary, but with another top 20 pick and the need to surround Mariota with more playmakers, Jon Robinson gambles that Howard will be the next Gronk.

6. Jets – CB Marshon Lattimore, Ohio St.: The Jets have a huge need at corner, Lattimore is the best in one of the best cornerback drafts ever and to not take him here would be foolish.

7. Chargers – S Jamal Adams, LSU: The Chargers are looking good up front with Melvin Engram and Joey Bosa but need help at safety and the big three are all on the board.

8. Panthers – RB Christian McCaffrey, Stanford: We think this is a bit high for the Stanford kid, but there isn’t another one like him in this draft and at 30 Jonathan Stewart even when healthy doesn’t have a lot of tread left on his tires.

9. Bengals – OT Cam Robinson, Alabama: He’s a sure bet at right tackle with his great size and athleticism, and he’s got a real shot to be a Pro Bowler on the left side, as well.

10. Bills – LB Haason Reddick, Temple: Lorenzo Alexander is great on the rush, but Buffalo needs a threedown difference maker, and they think Reddick is the guy.

11. Saints – DL Jonathan Allen, Alabama: Allen should have been a top-three or -four pick worst case were it not for some concerns – which we hear are unfounded – about arthritic shoulders and a lack of natural strength.

12. PROJECTED TRADE — Bears (from Browns) — DE Solomon Thomas, Stanford: The Bears make the trade with the Browns for two reasons. The chance to own three of the top 36 picks and five of the top 67 in this draft is just too much to pass, and, reading the tea leaves, they guessed at least two of the top three players on their board will still be available at 12. This feels strange after using the ninth pick last year on Leonard Floyd and their only real need up front is a five technique, which Thomas is not, but the Bears think he’s the top playmaker on defense in this draft.

13. Cardinals – QB Patrick Mahomes, Texas Tech: The Cardinals know the end is nigh for Carson Palmer, but they have the luxury of knowing he’s got at least a year, maybe even two, to mentor a youngster, and they have no glaring needs elsewhere.

14. Eagles – WR John Ross, Washington: This one surprised us too but we’re hearing the Eagles aren’t certain their investments in Alshon Jeffery and Torrey Smith will pay off.

15. Colts – S Malik Hooker, Ohio State: Uncertainty about his rehab after surgery to repair a torn hip labrum and the small sample size he produced at Ohio St. cause one of the highest-ceilinged players in the draft to fall to here.

16. Ravens – EDGE Derek Barnett, Tennessee: The Ravens’ top priority may very well be a double-digit sack guy and Barnett is a huge bargain this far down in the first round.

17. Washington – WR Corey Davis, Western Michigan: Washington has a real need at wide receiver with the free agency defections of Pierre Garcon and DeSean Jackson.

18. Titans – CB Kevin King, Washington: Cornerbacks need to fit systems in addition to being great football players, and King brings the size and cover ability the Titans crave.

19. Bucs – RB Dalvin Cook, Florida State: Cook is one of the more exciting play-making backs we’ve seen in a while.

20. Broncos – Ryan Ramczyk, Wisconsin: This is a case of one of the two or three best players available at No. 20 just happening to meet the Broncos’ greatest need.

21. Lions – OLB Jarrad Davis, Florida: Detroit desperately needs playmakers in its front seven, and Davis is the best one on the board here.

22. Dolphins – CB Quincy Wilson, Florida: Wilson is one of those guys who just might be special – 6-foot1½, 211-pound corners with excellent ball skills are hard to find.

23. Giants – TE David Njoku, Miami: Njoku is a freak of an athlete who may be able to make an instant impact in the passing game but he has a ton of work to do as a blocker.

24. Raiders – S/LB Jabrill Peppers, Michigan: The Raiders need playmakers on defense, and Peppers quite possibly is the best one coming out of school this year.

25. Texans – QB DeShone Kizer, Notre Dame: Bill O’Brien made his bones developing quarterbacks, he desperately needs one in Houston, and most agree Kizer has the best tools of any available this year.

26. Seahawks – CB Marlon Humphrey, Alabama: It is unclear whether the Seahawks are serious or not about dealing Richard Sherman but there is no doubt they need help on the other corner regardless.

27. Chiefs – LB Reuben Foster, Alabama: The Chiefs have a real need at inside linebacker, and Foster is the best available in this draft.

28. Cowboys – CB Tre’Davious White, LSU: Dallas lost three-fourths of its starting secondary in free agency with Brandon Carr, Barry Church and Morris Claiborne all leaving, so this is a best available pick.

29. Packers – OG Forrest Lamp, Western Kentucky: D’Onta Foreman and Joe Mixon are also possibilities here but neither is anywhere near as safe pick as Lamp.

30. Steelers – Edge Rusher Charles Harris, Missouri: Harris will have to get comfortable playing on his feet, and you may not want him dropping into coverage for a while, but he should supply instant pressure.

31. Falcons – DE Takkarist McKinley, UCLA: McKinley had 10 sacks and 18 tackles for loss last season at UCLA almost strictly on effort and athleticism.

32. Saints – DE Taco Charlton, Michigan: Charlton easily could be a top-15 pick, but as a late bloomer in this outstanding crop of edge rushers, we think he slips and the Saints get lucky here.

SUGAR 9 YEAR OLD FEMALE DILUTE CALICO DSH She originally came to the shelter as an abandoned kitten in 2008. She was adopted as a kitten as soon as she was available. She was recently returned due to a medical issue that requires her to be on a certain dry food but any wet food. Her former guardian said she was a loving sweet cat that loved to rub against them. She is a beautiful dilute Calico with her gray, light orange and white fur. She has light green eyes and the cutest little pink nose. She’s a larger fluffy girl that weighs about 11 pounds. She can be a little shy around strangers and is not a fan of being picked up. She enjoys playing with interactive toys or curling up on your lap. She purrs a lot when she gets groomed and petted. Because she is a senior cat there would be no adoption fee to an approved senior citizen through our Senior to Senior program.

Show of hands: Who’s planning to see this weekend’s big movie?

That was a trick question. Because with screens getting smaller, choices getting wider and audiences getting narrower, the entire notion of “big movie” has become exponentially more difficult to define.

No doubt, such worldwide behemoths as “Beauty and the Beast” and “The Fate of the Furious” count as big movies, if only in deference to their budgets, spectacle and wide-ranging appeal. But a glance at some of this weekend’s new releases reveals how, with Hollywood depending ever more heavily on remakes and sequels, and streaming services such as Netflix and Amazon becoming players in the art-house space, the proportions of modern films – the ambition with which they’re made and their ultimate size and scale on the screen – have become increasingly fluid.

There was a time when “Unforgettable,” the psychological thriller starring Katherine Heigl and Rosario Dawson, easily would count as a big movie. But, from concept to execution, the tale of a jealous ex-wife and the new bride she terrorizes is puny indeed – a grim, hopelessly retrograde portrait of toxic femininity and neurotic sexual jealousy. Although a few curious onlookers might want to see how Heigl is faring in her attempt to reinvent herself as a post-romcom heroine (hint: not well), tracking suggested filmgoers pretty much rejected “Unforgettable,” despite the name recognition of its actors.

Meanwhile, a “smaller” movie with far greater artistic aspirations opened, not in theaters, but on Netflix, which aggressively has been scooping up independent films to produce and distribute. Along with “Rodney King,” Spike Lee’s film of Roger Guenveur Smith’s one-man show, and the Iraq War drama “Sand Castle,” the service started streaming “Tramps,” a playful loveon-the-lam romance by Adam Leon.

With its nods to the likes of the French New Wave, its bravura camerawork and fleet, assured editing, “Tramps” is a lively, high-spirited crowd-pleaser. It played well at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it made its debut and where Netflix purchased it for a reported $2 million. But despite Leon’s cinematic sensibility and high-minded aspirations, he’s fine with his

film not being seen in theaters. What once was the holy grail for young filmmakers – having their work shown on the big screen – has now given way to platform-neutral realism.

Leon, who grew up in New York, admits he harbored the theatrical dreams for his first film, the 2012 caper comedy “Gimme the Loot.” And those dreams came true: The film wound up playing in more than 50 theaters throughout the country. But for “Tramps,” he said in a recent telephone conversation, “it was going to be a major challenge to get crowds into the theater.

And the reality is that most people would end up seeing it on a streaming service anyway.”

When Netflix bought “Tramps” in September, Leon cried with relief he could make his investors whole, and the pressure of filling theaters was lifted. Despite his confidence in the film, Leon observed, “It’s far from a slam dunk. There are no known quantities, it’s not a horror movie, it doesn’t feature The Rock. There are no TV actresses taking off their clothes. But on VOD, someone will buy it.”

Leon’s sentiments were echoed by Macon Blair, whose movie “I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore” opened the Sundance Film Festival in January before going directly to Netflix. Blair had tried to get financing for the seriocomic thriller for about a year, but was unable to coax famous-enough actors to satisfy studios and investors. When he made the deal with Netflix, he said, the company supported his choice of Melanie Lynskey and Elijah Wood for the lead roles, and completely left him alone while filming.

“Yeah, it would be rad to get your movie into theaters, but either the movie happens or it doesn’t happen,” Blair said philosophically.

Thanks to recommendation algorithms and subscriber data, Netflix is able to make

sure films such as “Tramps” and “I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore” get in front of viewers who likely will enjoy them. (The company doesn’t make its viewing statistics public.) It’s the same model used by Amazon’s Video Direct service, on which such direct-to-streaming movies as “The Break-In” and “Black Field” have found impressive audiences.

These are all films that, had they embarked on traditional theatrical runs, most likely would have lost money. For them, a streaming-only run isn’t a matter of foreclosed expectations, but rightsizing. As Joe Swanberg, whose movie “Win It All” is on Netflix, put it, “No filmmaker dreams of a half-empty theater on a Wednesday night.”

There still are films that demand to be seen in theaters – films like “The Lost City of Z,” which opened throughout the country last week. A sprawling, visually lush epic about the British explorer Percy Fawcett and his attempts to uncover a lost civilization in the Bolivian jungle, “The Lost City of Z” is the kind of sensitive, sweeping adventure tale that evokes such names as David Lean, Terrence Malick and Werner Herzog. It was even made on oldfashioned 35mm film.

Thankfully, “Lost City of Z’s” parent studio, Amazon, is giving it a theatrical run before streaming it later this year.

(Amazon founder and chief executive Jeffrey P. Bezos owns The Washington Post.) As Gray observed, this is precisely the kind of film studios used to make and still should be making. Now addicted to sequels and dubious star vehicles like “Unforgettable,” they’ve handed the baton to smaller outlets and streaming services adept at knowing which movies are meant to be seen on the big screen, and which are just as well-served by bypassing theaters and meeting audiences where they are. It’s an ethic a new generation of filmmakers is embracing without complaining.

In ‘Colossal,’ inner monsters are literal The Spanish director Nacho Vigalondo makes funny, fantastical, Frankenstein-like films that playfully combine small-scale with big-concept.

His 2011 film “Extraterrestrial” is a romantic comedy centered on a handful of characters amid a massive unseen alien invasion. His “Timecrimes” was about a marriage filtered through a time-traveling murder mystery.

“Colossal,” his second Englishlanguage feature and biggest production yet, fuses a traditional rom-com plot – big-city girl returns to her hometown – with a far more monstrous genre: the kaiju film. It’s a tantalizing prospect.

Who among us hasn’t wondered what if Sally had met Godzilla instead of Harry?

Would “Sex and the City” not have been improved had Mothra been on the loose?

In truth, “Colossal” is a more sly manipulation and inversion of genre.

Gloria (Anne Hathaway) is an unemployed New York writer who spends her nights drinking before making apologetic early morning returns to her

“COLOSSAL” STARRING: Anne Hathaway, Jason Sudeikis, Austin Stowell PLOT: Gloria is an out-of-work party girl forced to leave her life in New York and move back home. When reports surface that a giant creature is destroying Seoul, she gradually comes to the realization she somehow is connected to this phenomenon.

RATED: R for language RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 49 minutes boyfriend’s (Dan Stevens) luxury apartment. The more-together Tim, in the film’s opening scene, has had enough.

“I can’t deal with you in that state,” he says. He packs her bags.

Gloria retreats to her small-town home, crashing at her family’s now empty house, and the movie starts taking the shape you’d expect it to. Gloria runs into an old friend, Oscar (Jason Sudeikis), who cheerfully hires her as a waitress at his bar. Gloria, again, doesn’t make it to bed until the sun is up, spending nights drinking with Oscar and his pals (Tim Blake Nelson,

Austin Stowell).

The mess Gloria – alcoholic and inconsiderate – makes turns out to harm not just those around her, but thousands of fleeing Koreans. She wakes to see news reports of a monster attack in Seoul. Later, she realizes with horror the monster has her mannerisms (a particular way of scratching its head) and there’s a strange coincidence between its regular appearances (always at 8:05 a.m.) and whenever Gloria steps onto a nearby playground.

To say more would risk spoiling the primary pleasure of “Colossal.” There’s a thrill to riding along with a movie that plays it straight-faced before so readily jumping into the absurd. But it’s a cheap thrill. “Colossal” sags under its high

concept; its metaphors, not monsters, run amok. The movie’s kaiju side merely is a fun-house mirror held up to its characters’ emotional troubles, an eccentric mask for a fairly unimaginative story about a young woman trying to get her life under control.

The one-trick act of “Colossal” becomes tiresome even as its leads – particularly an excellent Hathaway – work to find some depth in the story. Most interesting is the turn that comes for Sudeikis’ Oscar, whose old flame for Gloria is more sinister than you’d expect. This is the movie’s more clever twist, but it feels less organic than it ought to.

Yet Vigalondo remains a tantalizing filmmaker who may well find a story to match his mash-ups.

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

Screening really does save lives!

Dedicated to Zion teacher, original musical ‘Kéanu’s Moon’ a ‘blesson’

Photo provided

By JAMI KUNZER • jkunzer@shawmedia.com

“Katie would love it.”

The thought came to Kimberly Voller as she and Michele Hellyer, both of Marengo, worked on the script for “Kéanu’s Moon.”

Voller founded the nonprofit Christian Arts Student Theatre in Marengo 11 years ago as a way for kids to “use the gifts they have and shine on stage” and has served as the theater group’s volunteer director ever since.

Putting on at least one show a year, CAST – made up of about 60 children ages 5 to 18 in this latest production – will perform “Kéanu’s Moon” April 28-30 at Marengo Community High School, 110 Franks Road. Shows are scheduled for 7 p.m. April 28-29 and 3 p.m. April 30.

Tickets cost $10 at 815-354-2619 or www. castmarengo.com or $14 at the door.

Every show Voller has put on means something, but there’s more to the story behind “Kéanu’s Moon” – a show dedicated to Katie Kloess, a teacher at Zion Lutheran School in Marengo who, at the age of 29, was killed Dec. 15, 2016, in a two-vehicle crash.

Voller came up with the concept – an underwater musical about sea turtles of the Pacific Ocean. Guided by Voller, Hellyer wrote it. It’s a first for both, who now can call themselves playwrights.

In one scene, the turtles go on a scavenger hunt, an outing inspired by a similar hunt Voller had suggested years ago to Kloess when her son was in Kloess’ seventh-grade class.

Kloess jumped at the idea back then, and, for the past several years, she and Holler would take Kloess’ students to Chicago once a year. They’d stop at Millennuim Park, Navy Pier, Michigan Avenue and Lincoln Park Zoo, challenging the students to check off items gathered and take part in activities along the way.

Writing “Kéanu’s Moon” last summer, Voller and Hellyer wanted to surprise Kloess with a similar scene in the musical.

“I knew she would think that’s so cool that we incorporated it into our show,” Voller said.

But a couple of months after they’d finished writing, Kloess was killed.

The same thought is bound to come to mind as the musical opens this weekend.

“Just seeing it come to life is going to be so emotional,” Hellyer said.

FROM TOP: Opening April 28 at Marengo Community High School, “Kéanu’s Moon” is dedicated to Katie Kloess, a seventh-grade teacher at Zion Lutheran School in Marengo who died Dec. 15, 2016, in a two-vehicle crash on Route 176 near Marengo. Kloess student taught in Australia.

“She effortlessly taught everyone she knew to be yourself, appreciate the challenge and be grateful for all God’s blessings. In honor of Katie, let your blesson remind you how even in the darkest days, faith keeps us strong.”

– The message on a card attached to “blessons” to be sold during “Kéanu’s Moon,” with the money raised going toward a memorial plaque in Katie Kloess’ honor.

“Then it became even more important,” Voller said of the scene and the show.

Along with the scene, Kloess will be remembered at the musical with what those who knew her well are calling “blessons,” a combination of a blessing and a lesson.

“A blesson is a blessing you find through a life lesson,” Hellyer said.

scribes as clay balls with smiley faces connected to cards that describe their #Kindness4Katie movement. Along with a picture of Katie holding a koala bear during her student teaching days in Australia, the cards talk about her “trademark smile and kind heart.”

See CAST page 11

• CAST

“She effortlessly taught everyone she knew to be yourself, appreciate the challenge and be grateful for all God’s blessings,” the card reads. “In honor of Katie, let your blesson remind you how even in the darkest days, faith keeps us strong.”

The money raised from the sale of the blessons will go toward a tribute plaque in Kloess’ name at Lincoln Park Children’s Zoo in Chicago, one of the stops on the seventh-grade scavenger hunt.

Kloess loved animals.

The effort is one of many reasons “Kéanu’s Moon” means so much to its creators, cast and crew and likely will resonate with its audiences.

It’s a story about Kéanu, a sea turtle devoted to Mahina, or the moon. “The moon is encouraging and inspiring and helps guide her and support her,” said Helllyer, who also wrote the lyrics to two songs in the musical, while area musician Suzie Schwartz wrote the music.

Hellyer’s daughter, Raina, learned to play ukulele for the show.

“We wanted this turtle to have some type of spiritual support,” Hellyer said.

“We felt the moon was a perfect match.”

“Kéanu’s Moon” also is a story about overcoming fear, working hard, making tough decisions and relying on one another – both on stage and off.

“This whole thing definitely has been

When you have a passion for something just really stick with it, find a way.”

For Voller, who hasn’t let Hellyer see the show during rehearsals because she wants her to see it fresh on opening night, “Kéanu’s Moon” is about the cast and the crew’s many volunteers – now a “family.”

“The kids have worked very hard for me,” she said. “That’s what it’s all about is the kids and seeing them be excited and their faces light up when they get on stage.”

‘Aladdin’ impresses, amuses at Cadillac Palace REVIEWS

“DISNEY’S ALADDIN”

Paul Lockwood

WHEN: Through Sept. 10 WHERE: Cadillac Palace Theatre, 151 W. Randolph St., Chicago COST & INFO: From the producer of “The Lion King” comes a theatrical event where one lamp and three wishes make the possibilities infinite. Running time: 2 hours, 30 minutes, with an intermission. Tickets start at $35. Tickets and information: www.broadwayinchicago.com/show/disneys-aladdin.

“A Whole New World.” “Friend Like Me.” Jasmine. Jafar. The Genie. You probably didn’t have to read too many of those to recall the 1992 Disney animated film “Aladdin,” which starred the voice of master improviser Robin Williams as the Genie who grants our street urchin title character three wishes. As I entered the Cadillac Palace in downtown Chicago to see the stage musical of “Disney’s Aladdin” last week, I only had one wish: I wanted to be entertained, impressed and amused. That wish was granted a hundred times over.

The Broadway in Chicago production, running through at least mid-September, has a lot going for it.

The original Aladdin from Broadway, Adam Jacobs, who received a Drama Desk nomination for his performance in New York City, is playing the “street rat” who’s struggling to survive on the streets of Agrabah. While Aladdin technically is a thief, he only steals food to stave off hunger, and he dreams of a day when he can make his recently deceased mother proud of what he’s become in the touchingly sung ballad, “Proud of Your Boy.” The stage musical replaces the monkey companion from the movie with three male friends who are distinct

characters, not just Aladdin’s backup singers. Kassim (Mike Longo) is the strong, handsome best friend; Babkak (Zach Bencal) is a punster whose constant hunger is played for laughs (e.g., another character says “I feel awful,” and Babkak responds, “Did somebody say falafel?”); Omar (Philippe Arroyo) is the most amusingly fearful of confrontation. Longo, Bencal and Arroyo especially shine in the second act, when they decide to rescue Aladdin despite overwhelming odds – the manic production number “High Adventure” is one of the comic highlights of the show.

Anthony Murphy plays the Genie with as much enthusiasm, heart and humor as you could hope for. Early in the opening number, “Arabian Nights,” he even incorporates a hat from a certain Chicago sports team. And when his character is summoned from the lamp

late in the first act, he gets to parody Oprah, “Let’s Make a Deal” and more in the show-stopping “Friend Like Me.” Murphy’s performance in that number, along with the talents of Jacobs and the ensemble cast, prompted a rarelywitnessed, but clearly well-earned, mid-show standing ovation.

The villain of the piece, Jafar, is played with relish by Jonathan Weir, who’s done a lot of excellent Chicagoarea theater and played another Disney villain on Broadway, Scar in “The Lion King.” Jafar, with his hilarious parrotlike sidekick Iago (Reggie de Leon), is determined to become all-powerful by enlisting the “diamond in the rough” in a scheme to retrieve the magic lamp from the Cave of Wonders. (Jafar: “We’ve been watching you for some time.” Iago: “But not in a creepy way.”)

The costumes designed by Gregg Barnes are stunningly colorful – to the point that one character even comments in Agrabah, “even the poor people are fabulous!” And kudos to scenic designer Bob Crowley: the sets are gorgeous, a Cave of Wonders being the most opulent example.

The magic carpet ride during “A Whole New World” truly is a well-done illusion as Aladdin, in the guise of a prince, woos the beautiful Princess Jasmine (Isabelle McCalla), their carpet floating above all areas of the stage.

The casting of all the roles is pretty spot-on, but for a show based in Arabia, you need to look past the lack of Middle Eastern accents. It didn’t bother me

much, except in the case of Jasmine, the Arabian sultan’s daughter who wants to marry for love. While McCalla is an excellent actress, and I felt there was chemistry between Jasmine and Aladdin, I thought McCalla’s New York accent was a bit jarring.

That quibble aside, I laughed a lot in this production, directed and choregraphed by multiple Tony Award nominee Casey Nicholaw. Regardless of the kind of humor you like – puns, deft physical humor, parodies of modern culture, even gentle jabs at other Disney musicals – you’ll find it coming at you throughout the show. This show is as “Fast and Furious” with the jokes as the action movies are with cars.

Is there a happy ending? For both this show and this review, yes – I left the theater with a big smile, and whether you’re 7, 27 or 57, you will, too.

REVIEWS

Evan Tyrone Martin plays Jesus of Nazareth in Paramount Theatre’s “Jesus Christ Superstar.”

Regina M. Belt-Daniels Well, the Paramount Theater has done it again – another superb, no, magnificent musical production, this time, the iconic rock opera, “Jesus Christ Superstar.”

Making his Paramount debut, Ron Kellum directs and choreographs a cast of 26 in an energized, witty, flawless version of the Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice classic (who by the way were both in their 20’s when they composed the 1970 rock opera concept album that routinely was rejected by theater producers). Loosely based on Gospel accounts, all the hallmarks of a grand opera are present – love, fear, devotion, betrayal, internal struggle and politics. But is it the story of Jesus Christ, or the story of a man made into a superstar? Did Webber use Jesus, one of the most famous icons in history, to get a point across?

As for the Paramount cast, I don’t think I possess enough superlatives in my vocabulary to comment. Dual Jeff Award nominee Evan Tyrone Martin is a tall, elegant, graceful Jesus with a beautifully strong vocal range. Martin recently was moved from the role of Peter to the title role of Jesus when Broadway star Destan Owens, originally announced for the role, departed due to a family emergency. Martin’s Garden of Gethsemane (“tried for three years, seems like 30”) particularly showcases the strength of his despair and doubt.

Judas, depicted always as an evil and tragic figure, in this production is devoted to Jesus, a man he admired, but is unhappy with the direction Jesus is going and what his popularity is doing. Judas stunningly is portrayed by Mykal Kilgore. His vocal range is unbelievably exquisite; he is impassioned and articulate and brings the house down several times. We understand Judas’ turmoil.

The always-by-Jesus’-side Mary Magdalene still has her two great signature songs beautifully rendered by the soulful Felicia Boswell, but Magdalene remains a character reduced to the in-the-shadows pacifying follower.

Lorenzo Rush Jr. is an extremely majestic Caiaphas, whose growl and deep resonance assert his authority in dealing with Jesus’ threat to his integrity and power; Avionce Hoyles does double duty as the weasley sidekick Annas and as the comic relief of the diminutive Mohawked King Herod (done quite flamboyantly Las Vegas style).

Rufus Bonds Jr.’s Pontius Pilate is crisp, precise and articulate; he tries desperately to save Jesus.

There’s a moving scene that contradicts the man we’re religiously taught is evil. Bonds plays Pilate to perfection.

And that ensemble! Every priest, soldier, soul girl, apostle, disciple and town person is a joyful, talented singer and dancer.

If you are buoyed by the cast, let me also express my gratitude for some technical aspects that help achieve that buoyancy visually. Scenic designer Kevin Depinet provides stoic Roman columns, moveable stairways and stunning projec-

tions from purple and gold mountains, the moon, the stars – everything necessary to depict the last seven days of Jesus’ life. Even the feared crucifixion is handled simply, touchingly and tastefully.

Greg Hofmann illuminates and gloriously highlights the set and ensemble, while Theresa Ham’s gauzy, emphatic semi-modern costumes in hues of gold, greens and mauve fit the ensemble well; blacks, reds and whites are reserved for the political and holy. Veteran Tom Vendafreddo teams with Kory Danielson for music direction and the conduction of a truly exquisite live 15-piece orchestra. And remember, “Jesus Christ Superstar” is a rock opera so there is no spoken dialogue; the show entirely is sung through, and the ensemble does it all with passion and edge via rock, soul and Gospel styles.

You must not go to “Jesus Christ Superstar” expecting the film. You’ll quickly be jolted by the shifts of allusions to modern life and the changes in stereotypic characters. And if you are expecting the music of the record album of your youth, you’ll be delightfully swayed by the new tempos, notes held longer and up and down the unimaginable scales and the stirring vibrancy of the phrases emphasized. Songs and performers

“JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR” WHEN: Through May 28 WHERE: Paramount Theatre, 23 E. Galena Blvd., Aurora COST & INFO: Rated PG. Includes two acts, with a running time of 1 hour, 50 minutes and a 15-minute intermission. Tickets: $44-59. Tickets and information: 630-896-6666 or www.paramountaurora.com. constantly were cheered and applauded with good reason. (There was an 8-minute standing ovation at curtain call.) It’s easy to understand why “Jesus Christ Superstar” has morphed into a global stage phenomenon, still vibrant and triumphant more than 40 years later. And the Paramount has another sell-out on their books.

Don’t suffer the pain of high energy bills in your next home

(BPT) - Do you cringe each month when your utility bill arrives in the mail? If high energy costs are getting you down, don’t blame your electronic devices. Heating and cooling are the largest energy expense for most homes, reports the U.S. Department of Energy.

If you dream of building a new, custom home, you must make some fundamental decisions about how the home will be built in order to avoid thousands of dollars in wasted energy costs each year.

When you picture your dream home under construction, you likely think of hundreds of wall studs (the skeleton of a building) creating the frame of your home, as that is how many U.S. homes are built - from tract homes to custom-built mansions. So-

called “stick framing” has been the standard practice in home building since the 1800s. Yet, this method is notoriously difficult and expensive to make energy efficient, leading to high heating and cooling bills.

More custom home builders have discovered an advanced method of building that can help reduce a home’s heating and cooling energy consumption up to 60 percent compared to stick framing. The system is structural insulated panels (SIPs), which can be used to form walls, roofs and floors in big sections (24 ft. each) that install quickly and easily.

SIPs panels are made when structural wood sheathing is laminated to a rigid foam core for superior strength and insulation. Compared to traditional two-by-four stud walls, SIPs have thicker and more continuous

insulation for exceptional insulating power, and have far fewer gaps where heated indoor air can leak out.

“Making a home airtight is the most critical thing you can do for high energy efficiency,” says Garrett Strong, president of Tall Pines Construction, Inc., in Park City, Utah. In one custom home Strong built for the O’Meara family in the snowy foothills of the Wasatch Mountains, the large SIP panels leave few spaces for gaps and help super-insulate the home. This high efficiency allowed the home to

supply 90 percent of its heating and cooling needs through passive solar energy.

Likewise, when it came time to design her own home, Montana architect Becki D. Miller, AIA, used SIPs to help create a structure that she estimates is about 30 times more airtight than a conventional home.

In addition to being energy efficient, Miller notes that SIPs help simplify and speed construction. “In one step, you can have the walls up and they’re insulated and sheathed,” says Miller.

“With SIPs, we had the walls up in Continued on the next page

“While SIPs are an advanced building method, they’re not new,” says James Hodgson, general manager of Premier SIPs, a manufacturer based near Tacoma, Washington. “SIP homes have been built in the U.S. since the

1960s, but with new interest in energy-efficient construction, more people are asking for SIPs.” Hodgson notes that manufacturers continue to innovate with SIPs, including new types of insulating cores. His company’s Platinum SIPs, for example, use a new type of insulation that increases

Jon Bon Jovi reputedly said, “Success is falling nine times and getting up 10.” Today’s deal features something very rare: a nine-card suit.

It was played six times in a duplicate in Florida. With East-West vulnerable, South opens one heart, and West passes. What should North do?

The normal response with this hand is five diamonds. Four of the six players in that duplicate did just that, and it ended the auction. Three made the contract, losing two spades. One North went down, I cannot imagine how.

Two Norths bid only three diamonds, a weak jump response. One South sensibly passed -- misfits are miserable -- but it did not work well here. The second South rebid three no-trump and got a top.

If West had been psychic and led the heart eight, the defenders could have taken the first four tricks via either three hearts and one spade or two hearts and two spades. (Note also that three no-trump by North could have been defeated with a low-heart lead.) Understandably, though, West led the spade three.

South won with her jack and ran the diamonds. During the avalanche, East and West discarded clubs, so South took the last three tricks with her clubs. Plus 520 outscored all of the 400s.

Many experts would have difficulty with this deal because a five-diamond response would not be natural.

It would show a big heart fit and a diamond void and ask for key cards aside from the diamond ace. This is called Exclusion Key Card Blackwood.

I guess here North would respond two diamonds, then rebid five diamonds.
