Philippines: Trump called Duterte to affirm alliance

By JIM GOMEZ

The Associated Press MANILA, Philippines – U.S. President Donald Trump has called Philippine leader Rodrigo Duterte and expressed Washington’s commitment to their treaty alliance and his interest in developing “a warm, working relationship,” a Filipino official said Sunday.

Presidential spokesman Ernie Abella said Trump mentioned he was looking forward to visiting the Philippines in November to attend an East Asia summit that Duterte will host with several world leaders and that Trump invited Duterte to visit the White House.

“The discussion that transpired between the presidents was warm, with President Trump expressing his understanding and appreciation of the challenges facing the Philippine president, especially on the matter of dangerous drugs,” Abella said in a statement.

A White House statement described late Saturday’s call as “very friendly” and said the U.S.-Philippine alliance “is now heading in a very positive direction.”

Trump’s chief of staff, Reince Priebus, said the friendlier ties are needed even with concerns about Duterte’s human rights record, which includes extrajudicial killings of suspected drug dealers and users as part of the government’s drug war. Priebus cited the military

WHERE IT’S AT

threat of North Korea.

“The purpose of this call is all about North Korea,” Priebus told ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday. “It doesn’t mean that human rights don’t matter.”

Abella’s remarks reflect the friendlier attitude Duterte has taken with Trump versus the antagonistic stance he had toward President Barack Obama, who he once asked to “go to hell” for criticizing the Philippine leader’s bloody anti-drug crackdown. During Obama’s final months in office, the Philippine president moved to build closer economic ties with China and Russia while repeatedly threatening to end his nation’s longstanding military alliance with the U.S. Duterte’s apparent dislike for Obama began when the U.S. State Department expressed concern over his drug war – which has left thousands of suspects dead – and asked Philippine government officials to take steps to stop extrajudicial killings.

At one point Duterte suggested he may even move to abrogate a 2014 defense agreement that allows U.S. military access to five Philippine military camps. He has walked back most of those threats but has proceeded with his efforts to align closer with China.

On Sunday, three Chinese navy ships, including a guided-missile destroyer and a guided-missile frigate, were welcomed in Davao city, Duterte’s southern hometown, by officials.

McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office rolls out new program

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office and other McHenry County agencies are launching a program to fast-track heroin and other drug addicts to treatment.

“A Way Out – McHenry County” is set to launch Monday. The program will provide easier access to treatment as well as a certain amount of amnesty to drug and alcohol addicts who want help.

The program is modeled after Lake County’s “A Way Out.” The McHenry County Mental Health Board provided $75,000 to go toward treatment costs for those who are underinsured or uninsured.

Through “A Way Out,” someone can walk into most police departments in McHenry County, all hours of the day and say they want to participate in the program. If the person has any drugs or paraphernalia on them, they can surrender those without fear of being arrested.

A police officer then will have the person go through an intake process, and he or she will take the person to Centegra Hospital – Woodstock, where the drug or alcohol user will undergo a medical evaluation and level of care assessment to determine what treatment is needed.

The county has partnered with Gateway and Rosecrance treatment centers, which have agreed to give “A Way Out” participants priority for available inpatient beds in rehabilitation facilities, officials said.

Rosecrance offers intensive outpatient programs in McHenry County as well.

“We know a lot of people in the throes of heroin addiction, even if they want to get help, are living on the margins of society,” McHenry County State’s Attorney Patrick Kenneally said. “They don’t know where to go, so they stay in their addiction. … We wanted to create centralized locations where you can walk in and get help regardless of your resources or circumstances.”

overdose, and the biggest benefit of the program is its life-saving possibilities, Kenneally said.

“We have seen in this community the devastating effects that drugs have on individuals, families and the community,” he said. “I am hoping this program is a step in the right direction in terms of rectifying that.”

McHenry County fundraisers help support family after fire

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com LAKEMOOR – Local businesses and community members are working together to help the Lakemoor family who lost their home in a devastating fire April 21.

Thomas Damiano and his family were in their home on Rosedale Drive when the fire alarms woke them up, and he had to jump off his balcony to escape. The home was a total loss, and damage is estimated at $185,000, according to the McHenry Township Fire Protection District.

Looking to help, Old Town Pizza & Catering Co. in McHenry is holding a fundraiser through May 12 with profits going toward support of the Damiano family in rebuilding their lives.

Damiano and his sons have been longtime employees of the McHenry pizzeria, 514 S. Route 31.

“A lot of the community has stepped up and helped,” Old Town Pizza owners Brian Burkus said. “We’ve had multiple people call and ask what we need. It’s been an overwhelming support. I’m blown away

McHENRY – McHenry residents can start buying their 2017 city vehicle stickers starting Monday.

The deadline to buy a sticker is June 30.

The 2017 city vehicle sticker applications were scheduled to be mailed to residents by the end of April. Applications include vehicle information supplied from last year and data obtained from the secretary of state.

Anyone who has not received a pre-printed application can visit the Municipal Center, 333 S. Green St., McHenry, or call the city at 815-3632100.

Application forms also can be found online at the city’s website, www. ci.mchenry.il.us.

Anyone who receives duplicate forms or a form for a vehicle they no longer own should return the forms to the city so officials can remove them from the vehicle database and ensure that a second notice doesn’t get mailed out.

For those who miss the June 30 deadline, a late fee of $3 a month will be assessed.

Stickers can be bought over the counter, by mail or through the dropbox, which is located at the southwest

Invasive carp removal through Great Lakes Restoration Initiative would be in jeopardy

By MIKE MALLORY

Eric Ginnard – eginnard@shawmedia.com

Contract fisherman Chad Duckwiler untangles his net Tuesday while fishing for Asian carp along the Des Plaines River in Lockport. sance Species program manager Kevin Irons was encouraged by the news that only one common carp was caught.

“We’re much more informed about where fish are and aren’t,” Irons said, comparing the department’s knowledge now to when it started removing carp from rivers five years ago. “It’s very important that we continue that.”

Caputo placed a small blue tag into the common carp’s back and clipped off a tiny piece of its fin before releasing it back to the canal.

Anyone who catches a tagged fish can call a number on the tag and report its location and size. It helps the IDNR track fish movement.

“We want an idea of how fish are moving,” Irons said. “Common carp and Asian carp move somewhat together. We often find common carp in other areas with Asian carp. Tracking is one of the best tools we have. If we find them in a new area, we can make assump-

Although the common carp isn’t considered a nuisance, its cousin – the Asian carp – migrates similarly and is an invasive species.

The Raindrop is an exceedingly thin, small, clear disc that is composed of hydrogel, which works by changing the shape of the cornea to focus light before it reaches the eye lens.

P.S. The Raindrop Near Vision Inlay enables the center of the cornea to focus on near vision, while the edge focuses on distance vision; the area in between focuses on intermediate vision.

Regular eye exams are an invaluable tool in maintaining healthy eyes by detecting and preventing disease in both adults and children.

LOCKPORT – Brennan Caputo reached down to pick up an orange-ish, diagonally scaled fish that had just been caught in a gillnet in the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal.

The plump 10-pounder was a common carp.

“That was one more than I expected to catch today,” said Caputo, an Illinois Department of Natural Resources aquatic nuisance species specialist.

Caputo, who was with a pair of commercial fishermen contracted through the IDNR to help remove invasive species such as Asian carp from various Illinois waterways, was expecting no fish, because of the canal’s notoriously poor water quality and series of locks that prevent fish movement.

The objective that sunny Tuesday morning was to ensure Asian carp hadn’t advanced up the canal.

The crew fished for a few hours south of a series of electrical barriers in Romeoville that beam through the canal waters and act as last lines of defense to keep Asian carp from approaching and entering Lake Michigan.

Biologists believe Asian carp could decimate native fish populations in the Great Lakes by outcompeting young natives for the precious plankton they rely on. Asian carp eat up to 20 percent of their body weight a day in plankton and can grow to more than 100 pounds.

IDNR Aquaculture and Aquatic Nui-

that day, they’d be hauled away and turned into organic fertilizer or dog food as have the millions of pounds the state has caught since 2012.

Asian carp have yet to emerge as table fare in America, although the crew complimented its taste when cooked fresh.

Illinois collected 1.1 million pounds of Asian carp last year, a state record, although it has hovered about 1 million a year since the program started, Irons said. The record was set with the help of the unified netting method, which the IDNR learned from Chinese fishermen.

It allows crews to cover a larger area and trap more fish in an outing.

The record doesn’t mean there are more Asian carp in waterways such as the Illinois River now compared with 2012. It means the IDNR is learning and doing a better job of removing them, Irons said. IDNR crews have switched from 4- or 5-inch gillnets to 3-inch gillnets so smaller fish are less likely to escape.

Although poundage is about the same annually, the amount of fish being

Continued from page A9 caught is higher, and the overall biomass of Asian carp in waterways is decreasing, Irons said.

For example, the Dresden pool in the Morris area of the Illinois River now has 68 percent of the Asian carp biomass it had in 2012.

“Maintaining that lower level is important,” Irons said. “It’s not great, but it is a decrease. If it goes up, it means the threat is increasing. Maintaining the level is encouraging. Our fishermen are getting better and more efficient.”

But efforts to eradicate the invasive species, and others, could collapse.

President Donald Trump’s administration has proposed a 97 percent funding cut to the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, which has given billions of dollars to eight Great Lakes states since 2010 to help them improve water quality in the Great Lakes, defend against and remove invasive species, and enhance habitat.

Trump won five of the eight Great Lakes states in the November election.

But environmental groups in the region have come out against the proposed cuts to the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, which was designed to fix decades of damage caused by industrialization in the Rust Belt.

• INVESTIGATION

Continued from page A8 from the Will County Coroner that there were no visible signs of blunt force trauma or physical injury to the body of Semaj Crosby to indicate the exact cause of death,” the news release stated.

The case is being considered a suspicious death investigation.

“Today, Sheriff’s detectives are continuing their investigation and are interviewing cooperating witnesses and some family members,” the news release stated. “No one is in custody. No one individual has been targeted as a suspect, however, no one individual has been ruled out as a suspect. Every angle of this tragic incident is being actively examined.”

A representative of the Department of Children and Family Services was at the house about an hour before Semaj went missing.

The agency opened two investigations of Gordon for allegations of neglect last month. DCFS spokeswoman Veronica Resa stated 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.”

But sheriff’s police described the

Brennan Caputo, an aquatic nuisance species specialist with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, holds a 10-pound common carp Tuesday after catching it along the Des Plaines River in Lockport.

Asian carp made their way up the Mississippi River from flooded ponds in Arkansas during the 1970s. If they get into the Great Lakes, experts believe sport fishing for salmon, trout, walleye and other species would take a hit.

The Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory estimates that fish harvesting in the Great Lakes generates $1 billion a year, while sport fish-

house’s condition as “deplorable,” with garbage strewn throughout. The residence was tagged Thursday as unfit for occupancy.

Including Gordon, her two sons and Semaj, five to 15 people were regularly living in the house as “squatters,” sheriff’s police said.

According to a source with knowledge of the investigation who is not authorized to speak on the matter, one of Semaj’s brothers has been hospitalized. DCFS and Gordon’s attorney, Neil Patel, declined to comment Friday on whether the brothers still are in Gordon’s custody.

Semaj’s father, James Crosby, was released on a recognizance bond Thursday from jail, where he has been locked up for two months on theft and domestic battery charges.

Attorney Cosmo Tedone said James Crosby had been scheduled to begin the Adult Redeploy Illinois program this week.

In the diversion program, nonviolent offenders undergo 18 months of counseling, substance abuse treatment, mental health therapy and job services.

They plead guilty and have convictions on their record but avoid incarceration.

Tedone said James Crosby likely will begin the program next week.

Funeral arrangements for Semaj Crosby still were pending as of Friday morning.

ing contributes at least $4 billion to the economy.

Additionally, a Conference of Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Governors and Premiers study found the region generates $5 trillion annually. It would be the third-largest economy in the world if the eight states, along with Ontario and Quebec, were a single country.

Not to mention, more than 40 million people get drinking water from the

Great Lakes and the initiative has supplied funding for hundreds of projects to improve water quality.

The Trump administration has proposed a 31 percent budget cut to the Environmental Protection Agency. Lake Erie, according to published reports, is the other lake most in danger of an Asian carp invasion, and it experiences yearly algae blooms that have become toxic.

Irons is a member of the Asian Carp Regional Coordinating Committee, which he said was facilitated in part by the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative.

He said representatives from various states are working closely to combat the invasion and described it as a “model” for addressing other issues.

Nearly all of the IDNR’s efforts to remove Asian carp are funded by the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, Irons said.

For now, the proposed budget cuts are just talk. If they were to become reality, Illinois and other states would have to find a way to adjust.

“We’re committed as a state to make sure Asian carp don’t get into the next basin,” Irons said. “At the same time, we have our own budgetary constraints. We’re committed to finding the appropriate way to make sure this effort continues. We don’t plan to step away, and the effort won’t go away overnight.”

Continued from page A3 launch, and McHenry County is projecting similar numbers, said Laura Crain with the McHenry County Substance Abuse Coalition.

Crain said the program is a way to open a discussion about the way people talk about addiction.

“It’s an opportunity to have a discussion and start understanding treatment, not consequence,” she said.

“There has been for a long time a philosophy of arrest, arrest, arrest, and it doesn’t play out. … To have the state’s attorney and law enforcement behind that concept is so critical.”

Cary Police Chief Patrick Finlon said he couldn’t speculate on whether

the program would reduce arrests for controlled substance possession, but he favored it regardless.

“If it helps one person, I think it’s a successful program,” he said. “And it’s not more labor intensive on the law enforcement side. If we were to encounter them and arrest them, we would still process them and take them to jail, which is in Woodstock anyway.”

If there is a warrant out for someone’s arrest, there is a possibility that person will be served that warrant, although Kenneally said he was willing to work with people to quash some warrants pending treatment.

The police department will run a background check on program participants. Pending criminal charges don’t effect one’s ability to participate in “A Way Out.”

HISTORY

The times, they are a … constant LOCAL HISTORY Kurt Begalka

Listening to visiting lecturer Ernest Freeberg talk about Eugene V. Debs on Tuesday night at the McHenry County Historical Society Museum in Union harkened back to Biblical tales of prophets trumpeting the Messiah.

To hear the University of Tennessee history department chairman tell it, the level of selflessness, charity, morality and integrity exhibited by Debs – a former railroad union leader turned socialist – invited comparisons to Jesus.

And in similar fashion, Freeberg said, Debs made many people uncomfortable and power brokers very nervous.

Federal restrictions on using the U.S. mail to distribute dissenting opinions about American involvement in World War I effectively drove the alternative press out of business. Socialist newspapers, such as “Appeal to Reason,” were crippled or bankrupted.

No one, it seemed, was quite sure what to make of this native Hoosier and full-time rabble-rouser, particularly when it came to World War I. And a nationwide, government campaign to stomp out any criticism of our military, by encouraging citizens to be model patriots and to report any whisper of dissent by their neighbors, kept the average citizen in the dark.

“They knew [Debs] had said something bad, but they weren’t sure just what,” Freeberg said.

The Espionage Act of 1917 made it a crime to “convey information with intent to interfere with the operation or success of the Armed Forces of the United States or to promote the success of its enemies.” This had a chilling effect on freedom of speech. Nevertheless, Debs, leader of the Socialist Party of America who had received 6 percent of the vote in the 1912 U.S. presidential election, threw caution to the wind in June 1918 at a picnic in Canton, Ohio. “… In all of the history of the world, you, the people, never had a voice in declaring war. You have never yet had.

And here let me state a fact – and it cannot be repeated too often: The working class who fight the battles, the working class who make the sacrifices, the working class who shed the blood, the working class who furnish the corpses, the working class have never yet had a voice in declaring war. The working class have never yet had a voice in making peace. It is the ruling class that does both.”

Eugene Debs leaves the U.S. Penitentiary in Atlanta after serving three years of a 10-year sentence for speaking against American involvement in World War I. This year marks the 100th anniversary of America’s involvement in the war.

After his speech, Debs was arrested.

At trial, Debs argued the Espionage Act violated his right to free speech under the First Amendment. A federal district court rejected his claim and sentenced Debs to 10 years in prison. An appeal to the Supreme Court – affecting 2,000 jailed radicals/pacifists – also failed.

In “Schenck v. United States,” decided March 3, 1919, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. wrote the majority opinion for the court, upholding the convictions of a handful of socialists who had created and distributed a leaflet criticizing the draft. It also effectively put an end to any chance that the court would reconsider Debs’ conviction.

Holmes wrote: “The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theatre and causing a panic. It does not even protect a man from an injunction against uttering words that may have all the effect of force.

“The question in every case is whether the words used are used in such circumstances and are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger that they will bring about the

substantive evils that Congress has a right to prevent. It is a question of proximity and degree. When a nation is at war, many things that might be said in time of peace are such a hindrance to its effort that their utterance will not be endured so long as men fight, and that no Court could regard them as protected by any Constitutional right.”

But less than a year later, Holmes reversed his stance and dissented in the case of “Abrams v. United States.”

He argued that the right to speak freely by dissidents outweighed the remote possibility that their words could cause harm. “… When men have realized that time has upset many fighting faiths, they may come to believe even more than they believe the very foundations of their own conduct that the ultimate good desired is better reached by free trade in ideas – that the best test of truth is the power of the thought to get itself accepted in the competition of the market, and that truth is the only ground upon which their wishes safely can be carried out.”

The comparisons between that

time and today are striking. Then, as now, the U.S. was headed in a “sharp conservative direction.” Isolationist thinking was gaining momentum, and the political will for getting involved in what was considered the fights of others was flagging.

The popular sentiment was to put America first and weather any collateral damage.

Debs invariably put others first, refusing payment as leader of the American Railway Union. He gave food and other gifts he received from friends and “Amnesty Movement” supporters to his fellow prisoners at the U.S. Penitentiary in Atlanta and volunteered as a counselor to prisoners dying of disease or battling drug abuse.

When President Warren G. Harding pardoned him on Christmas Day 1925, Debs’ fellow prisoners gave him a goodbye send-off that could be heard a quarter mile away.

Even in McHenry County, Debs’ influence lingers.

The Illinois State Historical Society recently agreed to a historical marker at the Old Courthouse and Sheriff’s House in Woodstock, where Debs served six months in 1895 for defying a strike injunction.

••• Friends of the Old Courthouse in Woodstock has launched a new photo project called “A Week in the Life of McHenry County, IL” that will result in a commemorative, coffee table book available across McHenry County.

STATE Bills, suit target quarries taking demolition waste

By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD – Lawmakers and environmentalists from parts of Illinois that rely on groundwater want tougher monitoring of porous rock quarries that are being “reclaimed” by filling them with construction waste, saying they want to regulate them to make sure drinking water doesn’t become contaminated with toxins.

On the other side are road builders, engineers and others in the construction business, who argue that Illinois has sufficient quarry regulations and additional testing would be too expensive.

The proposed rules appear stymied this spring. But Attorney General Lisa Madigan is in court, trying to force previously dismissed groundwater monitoring on the quarries. She argued in a state appellate court brief that testing underground aquifers is necessary to protect drinking water “from the ongoing threat posed by the placement of unchecked materials ... directly into the water table.”

Pro-monitoring forces use Flint, Michigan, as a worst-case scenario, where river water was not treated to re-

Heavy rains bring flash floods, flood warnings to Illinois

SPRINGFIELD – Heavy rains moved across southern Illinois on Sunday prompting the National Weather Service to issue flood warnings for the area.

Cities including Carbondale, Mount Vernon and Carmi were affected.

At least two rivers reached or exceeded flood stage including the Little Wabash and Skillet Fork rivers. High waters also were reported along the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. National Weather Service trained spotters in the Mount Vernon area reported seeing creeks and streams starting to come out of their banks.

The weather service issued flood and flash-flood warnings for areas south of and including Springfield and the Peoria metro area. Central Illinois and the Chicago area had flood watches in effect.

State officials warned people to use caution and to be prepared to act quickly.

duce corrosion for 18 months, leading lead to leach from old pipes and fixtures.

“That’s the danger,” said Rep. Margo McDermed, a Republican from limestone-rich Will County who is sponsoring legislation requiring groundwater monitoring around quarry receptacles.

“That’s the concern of everyone who uses water nearby quarries: that we could be in a situation like that.”

Eighteen organizations – which have made $6 million in political contributions in the past decade – have lined up against the measure. More than once, the Pollution Control Board has rejected groundwater monitoring, the decision Madigan is contesting.

Legislation similar to McDermed’s, sponsored by Democratic Rep. Emily McAsey of Lockport, was shunted into a subcommittee for review last week, substantially weakening its chances for passage before the Legislature adjourns May 31. The Sierra Club and other key environmental groups support the plan.

The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency calls it “clean construction-demolition debris.” The idea is that concrete free of steel reinforcement bars, rock, stone, brick and asphalt from sites where buildings are going up or being razed is “clean” and can

Western Illinois University to implode former dorm July 1

MACOMB – Western Illinois University plans July 1 to implode a 20-story-high building that was once a women’s residence hall.

Higgins Hall opened in 1967 and hasn’t been used since May 2013. The McDonough County Voice reported that the Macomb university has partnered with a contractor and a wrecking company. They plan to implode the building at about 9 a.m.

Saturday, July 1.

Joe Roselieb is director of residential facilities at the university. He says demolishing the building is part of a campus master plan. He says the former dorm has $48 million in deferred maintenance needs.

He says Western had higher enrollment when Higgins Hall was built and the school doesn’t need as much housing as it once did.

The school is taking safety measures and plans a safe-viewing area for residents.

be dumped in spent rock quarries. Requirements that professionals examine the waste have been put in place in the past decade, but decades of unregulated dumping occurred before that.

McAsey’s and McDermed’s home, Will County, has nine quarries with EPA permits to handle demolition waste, with up to nine more that could be soon, said Brent Hassert, a former Republican lawmaker who lobbies for the county.

The Illinois EPA lists 34 EPA-permitted construction-debris quarries, but when The Associated Press asked the agency for the sites handling the most demolition waste, spokeswoman Kim Biggs said the top three are in Lyons, in Cook County; and two Kane County sites, in South Elgin and Bartlett. None is on the agency’s list. Biggs then said the list is incomplete and would be removed until it’s corrected.

Illinois has the most stringent rules for quarry reclamation in the nation, according to Dan Eichholz, president of the Illinois Association of Aggregate Producers. The waste material must come from a site where previous land use has been determined and verified that it’s not part of a toxic-cleanup project. A professional engineer or geologist

must test the soil at the site and determine that contaminants do not exceed allowed levels. At the quarry, a detector is used to check for suspicious odors.

The professionals used in the screening process are hired by the landowner or hauler, Eichholz said, but “repercussions are severe” if they don’t comply.

And the receiving site can reject any dump truck arriving with waste.

“Any load that’s suspicious has to be rejected,” Eichholz said. “These folks, it’s their property. They have plenty of motivation to make sure no contaminated material comes in.”

Environment Committee Chairman Dan Beiser, an Alton Democrat, said he sent McAsey’s bill to subcommittee to await Madigan’s legal action. Beiser has his own legislation – which was approved by the House and is awaiting Senate action – that would release from permitting requirements a quarry-waste operator who transfers part of a quarry-disposal site to someone else.

Eichholz said groundwater monitoring would be cost-prohibitive. “It’s not a high-dollar type of business and the whole point was, it’s a sustainable way to bringing material back to where it originated” and save the higher cost of landfill burial, Eichholz said.

The goal is to resume the Altgeld Chimes’ noontime concerts by next fall, but it isn’t clear when, if ever, they’ll be open to public visitors again, The Champaign News-Gazette reported.

A safety inspection last October after the retirement of longtime chimesmaster Sue Wood led the campus to suspend the popular public tours. About 2,000 people visit the bells each year for daily concerts at 12:45 p.m.

The chimes were shut down completely March 17 for repairs after more problems were discovered.

Officials say public tours aren’t likely to resume until a much larger renovation of Altgeld is complete. The $90 million project is several years away.

The nearly 100-year-old bell tower is accessible from the third floor of Altgeld Hall.

A steep staircase leads up to the playing room, a small attic area filled mostly by the seven-foot chimes stand, a practice chimes stand and a giant wooden keyboard.

Visitors have crowded into the playing room for years to watch Wood and others pump the chimes stand’s wooden levers, which connect to cables that ring clappers in the 15 bells. Visitors would climb a short staircase to the outdoor roof above the

playing room and then climb another 35foot caged ladder to the bell platform.

“We let the world go up there and not think another thing about it,” Wood said.

“Who knew any better? It had always been done.”

Historic site to host baseball games by 1860s rules

HARTFORD – A state historic site is hosting a day of baseball next month when games will be played by 1860s rules.

The Lewis and Clark State Historic Site in Hartford will host the games 10 a.m. on May 6.

Visitors are invited to bring lawn chairs or blankets for the free event.

In the 1860s, baseball was pitched underhand and the distance from the pitcher to home base was 45 feet, not 60 feet, 6 inches as it is today.

The competitors will be the Vandalia Old Capitals, Springfield Long Nines, Alton Baseball Club and the Belleville Stags.

William Clark arrived at the site that became Camp River Dubois in December 1803. That spring, they made preparations for the expedition, which formally began the next year.

Lawmakers seal deal on $1T plan government-wide funding bill

By ANDREW TAYLOR The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Top Capitol Hill negotiators reached a hard-won agreement on a huge $1 trillion-plus spending bill that would fund the day-to-day operations of virtually every federal agency through September, aides said Sunday night. Details of the agreement were expected to be made public Sunday night, said aides to lawmakers involved in weeks of negotiations.

The House and Senate had until midnight Friday to pass a measure to avert a government shutdown.

The catchall spending bill would be the first major piece of bipartisan legislation to advance during President Donald Trump’s short tenure in the White House. It denies Trump a win on his oft-promised wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, but gives him a $15 billion down payment on his request to strengthen the military.

It also rejects White House budget director Mick Mulvaney’s proposals to cut popular programs such as funding medical research and community development grants and adds $1.5 billion for border security measures such as additional detention beds.

Most of the core decisions about agency budgets had been worked out, but unrelated policy issues – such as a Democratic request to help the cash-strapped government of Puerto Rico with its Medicaid burden – were among the final holdups.

The aides required anonymity because they were not allowed to speak about the agreement by name.

Democrats have denied Trump a big-picture win on obtaining an initial down payment for his oft-promised border wall with Mexico,

while anti-abortion lawmakers didn’t even attempt to use the must-pass measure to try to cut off federal money for Planned Parenthood.

Details were being closely held ahead of an agreement, but Trump and Capitol Hill defense hawks procured a $15 billion infusion of cash for Pentagon readiness and won funding for other border security accounts, such as detention beds for people entering the country illegally.

Democrats praised a $2 billion funding increase for the National Institutes of Health – rejecting the steep cuts proposed by Trump – as well as additional funding to combat opioid abuse, fund Pell Grants for summer school and additional transit funding. A provision extending health care for 22,000 retired Appalachian coal miners and their families was on track to provide permanent health benefits, a priority of Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and other Appalachia region lawmakers.

Democratic votes will be needed to pass the measure, so even though Republicans control both the White House and Congress, Democrats have been actively involved in the talks, which appear headed to produce a lowest-common-denominator measure that won’t look too much different than the deal that could have been struck on President Barack Obama’s watch last year.

Republicans had pressed for policy wins with so-called riders related to other abortion-related issues and blocking environmental regulations such as Obama’s sweeping expansion of the Clean Water Act. They also hoped to chuck new financial rules. But Democrats pushed back and were hopeful that the measure would not contain many items they deemed “poison pills.”

The Associated Press

Among the affected clients were Nicole and Don Davis of Lake Tapps, Washington, who said they had been working with the adoption center for four years at a cost of about $20,000.

“Honestly, I was stunned,” Nicole Davis said of the bankruptcy news. “For the first few weeks, I was bouncing between frustration and anger and crying all the time.”

She recalled a Super Bowl party in February with friends who brought their infants. “It was a gratifying day to hold the babies ... but at the same time it was devastating,” she wrote in her blog. “I actually cried the whole way home.”

Another couple, newlyweds Christopher Koontz and Bobby Duong of Long Beach, California, said they’d paid the agency about $16,000 over nearly two years, and right up until the bankruptcy were still being urged to spend more on advertising to promote themselves on social media. The extent of any reimbursement is uncertain.

“Several of our close friends, family members and co-workers were rooting for us to adopt – it felt shameful to tell them what happened,” Duong said.

Koontz, a city planner for Long Beach, said he and Duong have approached another agency to pursue their quest for a child, but he finds himself disillusioned about the adoption business.

“It’s very much run like a time-share presentation,” he said. “It’s a high pressure sales pitch, and then as soon as you cut the check it’s like you’re dealing with a completely different group

of people.”

Josh Christian, a lawyer in Greenville, South Carolina, was a client of European Adoption Consultants. He estimates that he and his wife ended out paying $10,000 extra to complete the adoptions of two sisters from Uganda, who had to spend more time in an orphanage because of the agency’s shutdown.

Only after the State Department action did Christian learn that there were long-simmering problems with EAC. He suggested there should be some sort of national database through which would-be adoptive parents could access information of that nature.

EAC was accused by the State Department of charging excessively high fees, misrepresenting information about children, and other improprieties. The agency said it considered the shutdown unwarranted and was considering an appeal.

Many agencies specializing in international adoptions have closed in recent years, and others have struggled, as the number of foreign children adopted

by Americans has plunged. The latest federal figures, for the 2016 fiscal year, reported 5,372 adoptions from abroad, down more than 76 percent from the high of 22,884 in 2004.

The State Department says factors out of its control are responsible for most of the decline – including an increase in domestic adoptions in China, Russia’s suspension of adoptions by Americans, and corruption scandals that shut down international adoptions in several countries.

10 killed by storms and flooding in South and Midwest The ASSOCIATED PRESS CANTON, Texas – At least 10 people have been killed by tornadoes or flooding in the South and Midwest by a storm that also dumped a rare late-season blizzard in western Kansas on Sunday.

Tornadoes hit several small towns in East Texas, killing four people. Three people were killed by flooding and winds in Arkansas, with officials saying two more people are missing. Rushing water swept away a car, drowning a woman in Missouri; and a death was reported in Sunday morning storms that raked Mississippi.

Flooding closed part of Interstate 44

near Hazelgreen, Missouri, and officials expected it would be at least a day before the highway reopened. Interstate 70 in western Kansas was closed because crews were waiting for snow falling at 3 to 4 inches an hour being blown by 35 mph winds to subside.

An Arkansas volunteer fire department chief was killed while working during storms in north-central Arkansas, state police said.

Cove Creek/Pearson Fire Chief Doug Decker died shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday after being struck by a vehicle while checking water levels on Highway 25 near Quitman, about 40 miles north of Little Rock, Trooper Liz Chapman said.

It wasn’t known if he will be included as a storm-related death, she said.

Rescuers in northwest Arkansas continued Sunday to look for an 18-monthold girl and a 4-year-old boy who were in a vehicle swept off a bridge by floodwaters in Hindsville, the Madison County Sheriff’s Office said.

In northwest Arkansas, a 10-year-old girl drowned in Springdale and the body of a woman who disappeared riding an inner tube Saturday was found in a creek in Eureka Springs. Also, a 65-yearold woman in DeWitt in the eastern part of the state was struck and killed in her home by a falling tree, officials said.

In Texas, search teams were going

door to door Sunday after the tornadoes the day before flattened homes, uprooted trees and flipped several pickup trucks at a Dodge dealership in Canton.

“It is heartbreaking and upsetting to say the least,” Canton Mayor Lou Ann Everett told reporters at a news conference Sunday morning.

The storms cut a path of destruction 35 miles long and 15 miles wide in Van Zandt County, Everett said. The largely rural area is about 50 miles east of Dallas.

The National Weather Service found evidence of four tornadoes with one twister possibly on the ground for 50 miles.

NEW YORK – For legions of Americans craving a chance to adopt children, a confluence of daunting trends makes this an especially distressing time.

The overall number of U.S. adoptions has dropped significantly in recent years, straining the viability of many adoption agencies and drawing some into conduct that authorities describe as unethical or worse. Would-be adoptive parents confront the specter of long waiting times and high fees. And many face pressure to spend lavishly on self-promotional advertising if they want to compete for a chance to adopt an infant.

Chuck Johnson, CEO of the National Council for Adoption, estimates that 1 million families are trying to adopt at any given time.

“No matter where they go, unless they’re super lucky, they’re going to be in for a long wait,” Johnson said.

“They’re going to be in a slow, painful process for foster care or in this massive competition for the limited number of healthy infants – and that’s where the situation is ripe for fraud. There are so many families who want to adopt, and so few options for them.”

Inevitably, some of the people desperate to adopt fall victim to scams. In March, a woman from Carolina Beach, North Carolina, was accused of using the internet to fleece a dozen would-be adoptive parents. In 2015, a Texas woman was sentenced to five years in federal prison for defrauding a Kansas couple

out of $22,225; she falsely claimed she was pregnant and wanted to put her twins up for adoption.

In the absence of comprehensive federal figures, Johnson’s council, which represents more than 120 adoption agencies, periodically tries to tally the total number of adoptions in the U.S. Its latest count, released in February, showed a 17 percent drop from 133,737 adoptions in 2007 to 110,373 in 2014.

Most of the decline was because of a sharp decrease in the number of international adoptions; the number of infant adoptions remained relatively stable at about 18,000, as did adoptions out of foster care at about 50,000.

Thousands of clients seeking to adopt have been buffeted recently by the downfall of their agencies, in some cases after having paid many thousands of dollars over several years.

The State Department, alleging extensive improprieties in handling international adoptions, shut down Ohiobased European Adoption Consultants in December. It operated in a dozen foreign countries.

A few weeks later, a domestic-adoption agency licensed in eight states, the Independent Adoption Center, declared bankruptcy, leaving more than 3,000 clients in the lurch. The California-based agency, which boasted of arranging more than 4,000 adoptions over a 34year history, blamed the bankruptcy on “societal changes” that increased the number of parents seeking to adopt domestically while shrinking the pool of expectant mothers open to having their babies adopted.

Police officers and protesters scuffle May 1, 2012, in New York. Tens of thousands of immigrants and their supporters are expected to rally Monday against Trump administration policies. While immigration reform has been a key focus of May 1 demonstrations in the U.S. for over a decade, the roots of May Day, or International Workers Day, date back a century.

What is May Day?

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Tens of thousands of immigrants and their supporters in U.S. cities are set to protest Monday against immigration policies to mark May Day. It is an event that also will generate heated protests around the world as unions push for better rights for workers.

The roots of May Day, or International Workers Day, stretch back over a century.

A look at May Day:

HOW DID MAY DAY BEGIN?

The origins of May Day go back to a turbulent and pivotal time in U.S. labor history.

In the 1880s, unions pushing for better workplace conditions began advocating for an eight-hour workday with demonstrations and strikes nationwide.

Some of the largest crowds gathered in Chicago. In May 1886, a labor rally in the city turned deadly when a bomb was thrown and police opened retaliatory fire. Several labor activists, most of them immigrants, were convicted of conspiracy to incite violence among other charges in closely watched legal proceedings. Four were hanged.

Unions later recommended that May 1 be designated to honor the workers who were charged. Chicago commemorated the site at Haymarket Square with a sculpture.

HOW IS THE DAY CELEBRATED?

In some countries, May Day is a public holiday. Elsewhere, it’s used to commemorate workers or protest for their rights.

Demonstrations, rallies and riots have taken place globally from Cleveland to London.

In 1990, Soviet protesters heckled then-President Mikhail Gorbachev at a May Day parade on Red Square. In 2013, rallies in Asia protested low pay, the rising cost of living and deplorable working conditions. In France last year, people hurled stones and wood at Paris police, prompting them to fire tear gas.

IMMIGRATION MARCHES

The focus of May 1 shifted to immigration in the U.S. in 2006 when roughly 1 million people, including nearly half a million in Chicago alone, took to the streets to protest federal legislation that would’ve made living in the U.S. without legal permission a felony. Crowds for May 1 demonstrations have since dwindled with advocacy groups trying other tactics.

This year, organizers expect a boost as different organizations are working together to fight aggressive immigration policies pushed by President Donald Trump. Demonstrations are planned from New York to Phoenix.

POITIERS, France – Whether or not Emmanuel Macron wins the French presidency in next Sunday’s runoff, he already has accomplished the unthinkable.

That’s thanks to an unorthodox, American-style grassroots campaign, which has harvested ideas from the left and the right, tossed them with a dose of startup culture and business school acumen and produced a political phenomenon. Without a party to back him up or any experience stumping for votes, the 39-year-old Macron came out on top of the first round of the French presidential vote, winning over 8 million voters and overturning decades of French political expectations.

An inside look by The Associated Press at Macron’s campaign found a mix of high-tech savvy, political naivete and a jarring disconnect between his multilingual, well-traveled campaign team and a mass of ordinary voters who have never left France and fear being crushed by immigration and job losses.

“It’s not a done deal,” campaign spokeswoman Laurence Haim told the AP during a campaign trip Saturday, careful to insist that, despite polls naming Macron the election favorite, risks remain. “We are extremely cautious.”

The centrist Macron is facing off against far-right National Front lead-

er Marine Le Pen in the presidential runoff.

Detractors dub Macron a bubble that, if elected, would deflate and self-destruct at the first national crisis.

Le Pen labels him a puppet of the borderless financial and political elite at a time when many workers feel like globalization roadkill.

Le Pen’s campaign is unusual in its own ways. She has broadened her support base far beyond the xenophobic old guard associated with her National Front party when her father Jean-Marie was in charge. Today, the people stumping for Le Pen votes at farmers’ markets and university campuses include the children of immigrants, academics, gays and former communists. She is also campaigning in her own name – not that of her party, a clear bid to distance herself from its past stigma.

Macron’s team wants to puncture the heterogeneous image of Le Pen’s campaign, and paints her as a closed-minded nationalist with a dangerous populist vision.

“It’s a fight between two different kinds of societies, for France and for Europe,” Haim said. “We are going to show the French people – and hopefully the world – that we are fighting for something bigger than us.”

Haim worked 25 years as a journalist in Washington before deciding to join politics in December – out of fear of seeing a French Donald Trump rise to power on a populist wave.

SPRING HOLIDAY

For some, May Day is a traditional spring celebration that’s observed in ways that don’t involve marching in the streets or civil disobedience. In some places, people mark the holiday by leaving May Day baskets filled with gifts and flowers on the doorsteps of friends.

In Hawaii, May 1 is called Lei Day. It’s not an official holiday, but a statewide celebration of the Hawaiian culture and the Aloha Spirit through the creation and giving of lei.

Turkey threatens further strikes on U.S.-allied Syrian Kurds BEIRUT – Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Sunday his country might take further action against Kurdish militants in Iraq and Syria, as U.S.-backed forces in Syria closed in on the last neighborhoods of a former stronghold of the Islamic State group.

The U.S. views the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces as the most effective partner to counter the Islamic State group in northern Syria, an assessment bolstered by the SDF’s steady advances against the jihadists. But it has complicated relations with Turkey, which views the group’s Kurdish component as an extension of a terror group operating inside its own borders.

In Istanbul, Erdogan insisted that U.S. support for such groups “must come to an end,” and said he would bring up the matter at a meeting with President Donald Trump next month.

The SDF, which include Arab fighters, seized six neighborhoods from IS militants in Tabqa on Sunday, according to the affiliated Hawar news agency.

Tabqa is 25 miles southeast of the Islamic State group’s de facto capital Raqqa and an important stronghold for the militants. It lies next to the Tabqa Dam, one of several controlling the flow of the Euphrates River.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group said the SDF’s control of Tabqa was “practically total.”

A U.S. air lift of artillery and special forces advisers to place them behind IS lines in March was a turning point in the Tabqa offensive and

underscored the closeness between Washington and the SDF. Turkey, however, has remained hostile to the Kurdish People’s Protection Units, known by their Kurdish acronym the YPG, which form the backbone of the SDF. The YPG are close to the Kurdish PKK insurgent group in Turkey, which is designated as a terror organization by NATO and the U.S. Last week, Turkey struck at YPG positions inside Syria, killing 20 fighters and media activists, according to the group, prompting Kurdish parties to call for a U.S.-enforced nofly-zone over northern Syria.

U.S. troops were seen Saturday in armored vehicles in Syria in Kurdish areas in a show of force apparently intended to dissuade Turkey and Syrian Kurdish forces from attacking one another. Kurdish officials describe the U.S. troop movement as “buffer” between them and Turkey.

Video from northern Syria showed the U.S. patrols parked alongside Kurdish units flying the YPG flag.

“We will be forced to continue [our offensives],” Erdogan said. “We won’t provide a date and time for when we’ll come. But they will know that the Turkish military can come.”

Erdogan is due in Washington on May 16 for his first meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump.

The YPG is distrusted by Turkish-backed anti-government forces in Syria, who say the group is an ally of President Bashar Assad’s government. The YPG and Syrian government forces have largely avoided confrontation over the course of the country’s six-year-long civil war.

ANOTHER VIEW

Politics a threat to world economy The global economy is gathering momentum, the International Monetary Fund has declared. That’s probably correct and undeniably encouraging, but there’s an ominous discord between this economic expansion and what’s euphemistically called “political uncertainty” – that is, the stresses caused by surging anti-trade, anti-market, anti-immigrant populism.

This “uncertainty” could be the prelude to some seriously bad policies, enough to derail one or more leading economies and stall the global expansion. And there’s another danger, less obvious but no less important: the prospect of chronic underperformance.

Even if the new politics doesn’t bring the ceiling down, it threatens to block the longer-term policies that would promote growth.

The current expansion is steady but unspectacular. The IMF’s new forecasts say global output will rise by between 3 percent and 4 percent this year and next – slightly better than in 2016. So far, investors haven’t taken fright over President Donald Trump’s anti-market rhetoric, or the implications of Brexit for the U.K. and the European Union, or any of the other new sources of global instability. That could change in an instant, of course.

Yet even if all goes well, there’s a problem. Advanced and emerging economies are settling into a pattern of growth that’s disappointing by historical standards. This shortfall means persistent poverty, diminished opportunities and stagnant incomes for hundreds of millions of people. It helps explain the current state of politics.

This longer-term slowdown is starting to look permanent.

Growth in productivity had already weakened in many

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

advanced economies – under pressure from demographic trends, fewer breakthrough innovations and other forces.

Then came the crash. Roughly a decade later, economies still haven’t shaken it off. Lenders and investors are more cautious; governments are more heavily indebted; and central banks are still wrestling with unconventional monetary policy.

Smart economic policy can still help increase long-term growth – but it requires deliberate intelligent action of the kind that the new politics makes far more difficult.

There are no quick fixes.

Promote innovation. Add to human capital by improving schools and widening access to higher education. Create programs that help workers relocate across regions and industries. Build well-chosen infrastructure. Encourage competition. All these things take years to yield benefits. Patience is the watchword – and populism is, above all, impatient.

One more thing. Persistent tepid growth is especially difficult for central banks, because it implies correspondingly low interest rates. In the U.S., the normal interest rate – the one expected to prevail at full employment – used to be roughly 4 percent. Today, it might be 2 percent or less.

In the future, either central banks will have to resort to unconventional measures more often or fiscal policy will have to shoulder more of the burden of managing aggregate demand.

In either case, economies will have greater need of competent policy makers, trusted by voters and insulated from the turbulence of daily politics.

It’s good that the global economy is gathering momentum.

But with politics this broken, don’t expect miracles.

IT’S YOUR WRITE Let’s open meaningful dialogue on competing views

John Schmitt is a worse kind of ‘bee’

To the Editor: In Sunday’s paper, I began to read an article that had a headline that said it was a “March for Science.” It took me a while to realize that the march was not so much about science (the systematic pursuit of knowledge through experimentation and observation) but rather a particular view concerning the planet and how much impact humans are having on the climate.

It is unfortunate that there is more protesting and name-calling via marches, letters to the editor and Facebook posts while less actual dialogue is going on between two competing views.

There is more name-calling – rather, respectful spirited discussion – about the issues. Instead, people are being shouted down without being given a chance to provide their views. This puts the readers at a disadvantage in understanding the issues so that we can be better informed.

Instead, ideologies are being propagated without any opportunity to question or discuss them.

May we all consider this before we begin posting, writing or protesting.

To the Editor: Algonquin Village President John Schmitt is not just a foolish “bee” on his social media page.

He grinned and bragged at a public meeting earlier this year that he is “a proud NIMBY.” That was his response to an audience member who asked why a bypass around Algonquin’s east boundary had been thwarted by the Village Board for many years.

He acknowledged with pride that he didn’t want that road in his backyard and that he was proud of being a NIMBY (Not In My BackYard) in preventing an eastern bypass from being built.

Now he has ignored village residents of Algonquin, Carpentersville and Barrington Hills who reject a four-lane truck route in close proximity to their backyards.

Residents of Algonquin have lost faith in his leadership and the work of the Village Board under his tenure.

Can we just shoo him away like any other bee?

At 100 days, Trump’s no Russian stooge or fascist

By ELI LAKE

Bloomberg View Before Donald Trump won the election in November we were warned: He is a Russian stooge. He is a fascist. He will upend the protocols and traditions that make governing possible. This is not normal.

Now that we are approaching the 100-day mark, it’s worth noting that the president is defying the expectations of his resistance. And while there is plenty to oppose in Trump’s young presidency, he is neither the Siberian candidate nor the second coming of Mussolini.

Let’s start with Russia. The FBI is still investigating whether and how his campaign may have colluded with Moscow’s efforts to influence the presidential election. And yet in terms of actual policy, Trump has settled on a much tougher line with Russia than how he campaigned or in his first few weeks.

In the first month of Trump’s presidency, there were legitimate concerns he would attempt a grand bargain with Russia. He boasted that it was an asset that Russian President Vladimir Putin liked him. And he went out of his way to spare Putin from the harsh criticism he reserved for just about everyone else.

But there has been no reset. In fact, it’s fair to say that Trump has been much kinder to China, Russia’s traditional Asian rival. Trump ended any chance for the multilateral trade deal with China’s neighbors known as the Trans-Pacific Partnership. He dropped his threat to revisit the One-China Policy that requires the U.S. not to recognize Taiwan’s sovereignty.

More recently, he has said he won’t pursue China for currency manipulation, and tells us he is pleased by China’s cooperation against North Korea during the current nuclear crisis.

Instead, Trump is treating Russia in practice the way he promised in the campaign to deal with China. His government has supported Montenegro’s membership into NATO. Russia not only opposed this, but in October Russian agents were involved in a failed coup against the country’s prime minister who supported Montenegro’s accession to the treaty organization, according to a Montenegrin prosecutor.

The Trump administration last week rejected a request from Exxon-Mobil to get a waiver to explore energy exploration in the Black Sea with a Russia concern, despite that he chose Exxon-Mobil’s CEO, Rex Tillerson, as his secretary of state. You may remember him as the guy who won the Russian Order of Friendship in 2013.

Then there was the decision this month to fire 59 tomahawk missiles at a Syrian airbase, after the Syrian gas attack on rebel populations.

Those strikes against Russia’s only real client state in the Middle East caught Moscow by surprise, and further unraveled the relationship the Kremlin had hoped to reset with Trump. A few days after the missile strike, Trump’s White House released a dossier calling out Russia’s own fake news about the Syrian gas attack.

Now, U.S.-Russian relations are cratering.

Both sides say they are at a historic low point.

Russian bombers in the last week have been flying into Alaskan airspace, testing Trump’s resolve. Meanwhile, one of America’s top generals just suggested Russia was arming the Taliban in Afghanistan. If Trump is a Russian mole, it looks like a very long con.

This gets to the second resistance narrative about Trump that he is an authoritarian or fascist in waiting. To be sure, during the campaign Trump gave his critics something to work with on this front. He encouraged his supporters at rallies to do violence to protesters. He promised to bring back waterboarding “and much worse,” for terrorists captured on the battlefield. He campaigned on banning Muslims from entering the country, and he promised to build a wall on the Mexican border. More recently, Trump has cozied up to the strong men ruling Egypt and Turkey. His semi-endorsement of the far-right French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen is part of this theme as well.

All of that is alarming. That said, real fascists are much better at consolidating power and implementing an agenda. On this score, Trump has been no Caesar. The courts have rebuked him twice on the much-modified travel ban that would apply to Muslim-majority countries. His first effort to repeal and replace Obamacare failed miserably. He has yet to offer an infrastructure spending bill, tax reform or a plan to build the wall.

An added irony is that the bête noire of the anti-Trumpists, senior strategist and former Breitbart publisher Steve Bannon, is out of favor. Trump’s new inner circle is comprised of people such as the investment banker Gary Cohn, the kind of globalists the president campaigned against. The other set of advisers are retired or serving generals such as National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster, who is seen as a check on the nationalist ideologues that so worry most of Trump’s opposition.

Traditionally, fascism is the marriage of corporate and military elites with an authoritarian leader. For Trump’s White House, however, his corporate and military advisers are steering Trump to a more traditional presidential agenda. None of this is to say Trump is doing a great job. He has shown himself to be unfamiliar with the intricacies of policy. His hostility to the press is dangerous and counterproductive.

Trump continues to say outrageous falsehoods and is prone to extreme hyperbole. But these flaws have not yet posed an existential threat to the republic. He has obeyed the courts, even as he has derided their decisions on Twitter.

He has reversed himself on Russia. And he has begun to resemble something less menacing and more normal than his foes predicted.

28 High doses of pain relievers carry risk Dear Doctor: Which pain reliever is safer – acetaminophen, ibuprofen, celecoxib or naproxen? It seems as if they all carry some risks.

Dear Reader: Pain is a symptom to which we can all relate. It’s also an important indicator of possible injury within the body and should be acknowledged, not simply by taking medication, but also by understanding the cause of the pain. That said, one person’s pain is different than another’s, with some people needing greater pain relief.

So, if you need a medication for pain, what should you use? Let’s look first at acetaminophen (Tylenol). Acetaminophen has been used since 1955; it is available in multiple products, works well for pain, and is for the most part safe. However, at high doses – specifically, above 4,000 milligrams a day, or eight tablets of Extra Strength Tylenol – the medication can cause liver damage, or even death, especially in those who are malnourished, drink alcohol in excess or consistently take more than 4,000 mg a day. Age also is a factor, as those 40 and older have a greater risk of liver failure and death after over-dosage.

Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) has been used for pain since 1974. It is one of many medications classified as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). NSAIDs work by inhibiting formation of mediators of pain and inflammation, and they’re notably effective at decreasing inflammation in swollen joints related to arthritis.

Naproxen (Aleve) was first marketed in 1976 and works similarly to ibuprofen.

But it has a longer half-life, giving it a longer-lasting effect. Both ibuprofen and naproxen decrease the formation of prostaglandins in the stomach. These chemicals produced by the body have hormonelike effects, protecting the stomach lining from acidity. The decrease of prostaglandins can injure the stomach lining, leading to

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Robert Ashley stomach inflammation, ulcers and possibly severe bleeding.

Celecoxib (Celebrex) is a more selective NSAID and does not decrease prostaglandins in the stomach. This translates into less likelihood of creating ulcerations.

All NSAIDs also reduce prostaglandins in the kidneys, which can lead to kidney injury. This injury becomes worse in people who have a history of chronic kidney disease, who are older, or who have congestive heart failure or cirrhosis.

Lastly, the chronic use of high-dose NSAIDs has been linked to an increased risk of heart attacks. Celecoxib may have a slightly greater risk of this than ibuprofen and naproxen, but a recent New England Journal of Medicine study looking at those who used NSAIDs chronically for arthritis found no difference in cardiovascular events between celecoxib and either ibuprofen or naproxen.

Of the drugs you listed, my feeling is that acetaminophen is the safest when used regularly. However, I would use acetaminophen at no higher doses than 4,000 mg a day and, if you were to use it regularly, I would recommend decreasing this amount to 2,000 to 3,000 mg a day.

The NSAIDs – ibuprofen, naproxen and celecoxib – are needed by some who have inflammatory arthritis, and they are good medications in the short-term. I would caution against consistent long-term use, especially at high doses and especially if you have any history of heart disease.

ous! It is also irresponsible and indefensible.

Periodically, we hear in the media about tragedies that happened because someone had a seizure and drove into a restaurant, a shop window, etc. For someone with an illness that could endanger the lives of passengers, pedestrians and other innocent people to get behind the wheel of a vehicle is selfish and unconscionable.

Encourage her to talk to her doctor about adjusting or changing her medication. And remind her that if she were to cause another accident, and it was discovered she was driving in spite of being restricted, she could not only kill people, she also could be prosecuted criminally and civilly.

Dear Abby: Whenever I give my longtime friend a gift, her immediate reaction is to tell me, “Oh, no.” Then she immediately offers to give me money for the gift. When I give someone a gift, it is because I like that person and am excited to give them something I think they would like. When she tells me I shouldn’t have done it and keeps asking how much money she owes me, I feel very hurt. Now her daughter, whom I consider like my family, has learned it from her mom and does the same thing when I give her a gift. Abby, why do they react that way? I always give from my heart. – Gift Giver In Texas Dear Gift Giver: I suspect your friend learned this behavior the way her daughter has – from her mother. You might ask your friend to explain why she does this when you give her a gift, because her reaction is peculiar. (Could it be she feels unworthy?) Because you know receiving gifts makes her uncomfortable, my advice is to quit giving her things.

Dear Abby: I have a girlfriend. We have been dating for almost two months. We both love each other so much and think we are the perfect match. But she is going to high school and I’m a year younger, which puts me in eighth grade. We live close to each other, so we see each other on the weekends. She has been accepted to an amazingly good school, but it’s downtown. What should we do? Should we keep our relationship or leave it if we won’t be able to see each other as often? – Teens In Love Dear Teens: If I told you to break up because in a few months you and this girl won’t be able to see each other as often, would you do it? I don’t think so! What I do suggest is the two of you let this play out. Enjoy each other for now, and in the fall, if your feelings – or hers – change, discuss it then.

Leo Tolstoy wrote, “Error is the force that welds men together; truth is communicated to men only by deeds of truth.”

Error is the force that welds less-experienced bridge players together.

In my classes, if we exclude playing far too quickly from the dummy at trick one, I see two errors more often than any others. They are related to answering partner’s takeout double and playing third hand high.

Let’s put them under the spotlight this week.

Look at the South hand in the diagram. West opens one diamond, North makes a takeout double, and East passes -- what should South do?

South can pass only when he has long and strong diamonds. So, a simple bid in a suit promises nothing; it has a range of 0-8 points. This South hand contains 9 points, so he must jump to two spades. Yes, this could be a 4-3 fit, but we cannot worry about that at the moment. A good partner will have four-card support.

Here, North, knowing his partner has 9-11 points, jumps to four spades.

How should South plan the play after West cashes two top diamonds and exits with a trump?

Declarer has three top losers: one heart and two diamonds. He must find the club queen to make his contract. When faced with a guess like this, leave it as late as possible.

First, draw the trumps. Then, play on hearts to learn that East holds the ace. Next, check the points. South is missing only 16, and West opened the bidding, but East has the heart ace. West must have the club queen, so finesse through him to get home safely.

KEEPING TABS

Local players, coaches adjust to IHSA pitch count limits

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com Woodstock North pitcher Cory Busse hadn’t allowed a hit through six innings. He was ready to head to the mound for the seventh with a 1-0 lead when coach John Oslovich told him he had thrown 98 pitches.

Under the new IHSA pitch count limit, he only had seven pitches to work with.

Busse said he didn’t know he was throwing a no-hitter. Even so, he was gunning for the complete game.

“We didn’t tell him to throw this way, but he knew in order to get through that inning on the pitch count, he had to throw strikes,” Oslovich said.

He threw two strikes to Marengo’s Brayden Quick before Quick shot the third one into center field for a triple.

Busse needed five pitches to strike out the next batter and had to exit the game (pitchers still can finish an at-bat in which they reach 105 pitches).

“I let the kid get on and I want to be the one to Cory Busse finish the inning,” Busse Woodstock North pitcher said. “It’s frustrating.

There’s nothing I can do about it.”

The bullpen blew the lead, and the Thunder trailed, 2-1, heading into the bottom of the seventh. Thankfully for Busse and his teammates, North rallied

to win.

This is the new caveat in high school baseball.

The National Federation of State High School Associations mandated that every state create a pitch count limit, and the IHSA settled on 105 pitches.

Additionally, pitchers are mandated rest days on a sliding scale: Throw 31 to 45 pitches, a player must rest a day; 46 to 60 pitches, two days; 61 to 75 pitches, three days; 76 to 105 pitches, four days.

The rule is in place to protect young arms. But it has created minor changes in procedure for teams.

Coaches are required to enter pitch totals into an online logging system provided by the IHSA. The program

then projects when a player can pitch again.

North’s Oslovich prints that matrix out and keeps it with him during games, both his pitchers and the opponent’s. If Busse hadn’t had a limit in the no-hit bid against Marengo, Oslovich said he would have left him in.

“He knew that number was close,” Oslovich said. “He ended up making a mistake and, to their credit, they hit the ball.”

Nothing but cooperation

Preston Wolin made his case in front of the IHSA baseball advisory committee in August.

See PITCH COUNT, page 2

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com • Monday, May 1, 2017

• PITCH COUNT

Continued from page 1 Wolin, the director of sports medicine at the Chicago Center for Orthopedics at Weiss Memorial Hospital, campaigned for the limit (the initial recommendation was a 115-pitch maximum).

Wolin also happens to be a pitching coach at Ida Crown Jewish Academy in Skokie. He felt the implementation went well.

“Everybody is trying to be very collegial about this, cooperate, be as up front as they possibly can trying to figure out how all this works,” Wolin said.

Bob Gardner, the NFHS executive director, said it’s a work in progress.

“We have not had any real expressions of controversy over discrepancies in counting or anything like that,” Gardner said.

Gardner even mentioned that someday the NFHS could come up with a unified number for all states.

“It’s something that, over the course of time, we’ll eventually land on a number that seems to work for everybody,” Gardner said.

There have been few reports of violations in Illinois. What violations have surfaced tend to be instances of coaches accidentally using a pitcher a day earlier than allowed. Those have resulted in forfeits.

Most coaches already had their own limits in place. For many, it simply means adjusting to the IHSA’s numbers.

McHenry coach Brian Rockweiler has seen opponents pull a pitcher in the middle of an at-bat – something that almost never happened before – in order to preserve an extra day of rest.

Rockweiler said the rule has affected the way McHenry uses its bullpen.

He plans out who’s going to throw in relief ahead of time.

“Some coaches are real strict making sure guys stay at a certain pitch count so they can pitch again the next day,” Rockweiler said. “We don’t do that. We save a reliever for each day so that way if we use a guy for more than 30 pitches, it doesn’t leave us in a bind for the next day.”

Why aren’t we all doing it?

After committing to pitch in college at Xavier after his junior season, former Hampshire pitcher Trey Schramm sat down with Whip-Purs coach John Sarna.

Heading into his senior season, Schramm was Hampshire’s top pitcher and shortstop, and now his arm had a Division I career ahead of it.

Sarna had a recommendation.

“We came to the agreement that I would stop playing shortstop my senior year and I would move to first base and outfield just to preserve

Area high school teams are adjusting this year to a mandatory pitch count put in place by the IHSA. my arm a little bit,” said Schramm, now a sophomore at Xavier. “At first when it was brought up to me, I was a little skeptical.”

The day after pitching, Schramm was the designated hitter. Two days after pitching, he could return to the field as a first baseman.

“Trey wasn’t really happy when I moved him,” Sarna said. “I sleep well at night knowing that we did what was in the best interest of the kid. I just wish more and more coaches did that.”

The new pitching rules don’t cover everything.

Sarna wishes there was mandatory education for coaches on how to handle young arms. Earlier this season he became upset when he watched an opposing team trot out the previous day’s pitcher as a third baseman.

Schramm logged 562/3 innings out

combat the limits, one he thinks more teams will do next year.

The number of kids on his team can vary from year to year, but Sarna usually keeps about 20. This year, the Whip-Purs have 23.

“I did that specifically because of this rule,” Sarna said. “My philosophy is everybody is a pitcher, because you just don’t want to be in that position where you’re in violation of some number.”

Some pitchers are simply used for mop-up duty during a blowout.

McHenry kept the same number of pitchers it normally has. But Rockweiler said the Warriors have put more focus on developing pitchers at the lower levels.

‘Everybody is a pitcher’ Sarna is in favor of protecting “It’s only a good thing,” Rockweiarms, he just doesn’t like that the ler said. “It gives other kids a chance to play that sometimes might not IHSA is telling coaches what to do.

Sarna adopted another measure to have gotten an opportunity.” of the bullpen as a freshman for Xavier and has thrown 30 innings this season. He has never dealt with arm problems. He credits his Hampshire coaches’ diligence with pitchers as the reason why he has transitioned so well to college, where he posted a 3.65 ERA as a freshman and helped the Muskateers reach the NCAA tournament.

“All the stretches (in high school), at the time I thought it was a little tedious,” Schramm said. “You’ve just got to know your body. If the arm’s not feeling good and you’re going out to shortstop, it’s putting unneeded stress on your arm.”

CUBS 6, RED SOX 2

By BRUCE MILES

bmiles@dailyherald.com

• Monday, May 1, 2017

BOSTON – In many ways, April was the coolest month for the Cubs.

After a season-opening road trip, they returned home to Wrigley Field for banner-raising and World Series ring ceremonies.

As nice as those events were, they put the Cubs through the emotional wringer as well.

They come home Monday night to begin May after a 10-day, nine-game road trip that ended with a Sunday night game at Fenway Park. The Red Sox broke a 2-2 tie in the bottom of the eighth inning with four runs to take the series with a 6-2 victory.

Things got messy in the eighth, with reliever Koji Uehara being slow to cover first base, allowing leadoff hitter Marco Hernandez to reach.

Uehara loaded the bases. Pedro Strop relieved Uehara, and after getting a strikeout, he allowed a run on a wild pitch. There also was an error in the inning.

“I’ll take a 5-4 road trip,” said manager Joe Maddon, whose first-place team has a record of 13-11. “I will take a winning month.”

All in all, Maddon says he’s happy with the start.

“Pretty pleased, actually,” he said.

“It’s always nice to break with a winning month. We’ve had two pretty difficult road trips. Even the first one, going to Houston (to end spring training), even though it didn’t matter it was still being on the road. The week in St. Louis. There was just a lot of time spent away from home.

“Then we went home, nice (home) stand. I think we were 4-5. But it was an emotional week. And I’m really into attempting to understand emotional expenditures. I really believe that’s something we don’t think about enough. So I thought we got through that well.”

The Cubs are in first despite not hitting on all cylinders in any aspect of their game. They also have to live with the memory of last year’s torrid 25-6 start.

“That’s fine,” Maddon said. “That’s really hard to do. You’d love to have that done, but who knows? We might have a 25-6 run in us at some point, too.

“But I’m really pleased and proud of our guys, how they’ve handled all of this.

In spite of all this stuff going on, they come ready to play every night. The vibe has been great. The dugout’s been alive every game. Typically we don’t quit. Everything’s to like.

“To this point we haven’t necessarily nailed it as starting pitchers. We haven’t

The Red Sox beat the Cubs, 6-2. necessarily nailed it hitting wise or even playing defense. We’ve played good, but I still don’t think we’ve played any facet of the game up to our capabilities yet.”

Starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks went six innings, giving up five hits, including a two-run homer to Hanley Ramirez in the first. He echoed Maddon’s sentiments about the start.

“A little weird,” he said. “Just trying to find our way a little bit. Starting a new year, it was a quick turnaround for a lot of us. Everybody is just trying to find their spot. That’s what the first month is usually for. We came out so hot out of the gates last year. That was just kind of a special phenomenon.

“Usually, this is more what you kind of expect, guys just finding their way into their roles and in the games and be able to win ballgames with it. That was obviously a really good sign because we’re not clicking on all cylinders. Once that all starts happening, weather starts warming up, getting in the middle of the year, I think everybody will start rolling.”

“But I’m really pleased and proud of our guys, how they’ve handled all of this. In spite of all this stuff going on, they come ready to play every night. The vibe has been great.

The dugout’s been alive every game. Typically we don’t quit.”

Sox lose as Garcia tweaks groin

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

TIGERS 7, WHITE SOX 3

DETROIT – April is in the books for Avisail Garcia, who ended his booming month quietly Sunday with a foul pop-up and strikeout before leaving with tightness in his left groin in the White Sox’ series-ending 7-3 loss to the Tigers on Sunday at Comerica Park.

Slick conditions on a damp, rainy 48-degree afternoon prompted manager Rick Renteria to pull his right fielder, and get a case filed for American League Player of the Month. The idea was to have Garcia ready for the first day of May, when the Sox open a four-game series Monday in Kansas City.

“It was a little tight,” Garcia said.

“They took me out for precautionary [reasons]. I can run, but not 100 percent.

That’s a smart decision. I don’t want to get worse. ‘’ Garcia is a guy the Sox want to keep healthy. He finished April with an ALbest .368 average, five homers, 20 RBIs and ranked among the league leaders in several other categories. Mike Trout also is up there as a Player of the Month candidate ,and the superstar center fielder figures to rate an edge but to be mentioned speaks volumes about the strides Garcia, 25, is making in his third full season – a campaign viewed as make-orbreak for the Venezuelan.

Garcia’s teammates rode him to a somewhat surprising 13-10 record in

White Sox’s starter Miguel Gonzalez pitches in the first inning Sunday against the Detroit other. I have tried to help him, [Jose] Abreu has, too, and he has been very reTigers in Detroit. The Sox lost, 7-3.

April and will continue to pull for him, too.

“He is a hard worker, and he likes to learn,” veteran teammate Melky Cabrera said through interpreter Billy Russo.

“He’s always asking for advice and is open to suggestions, too, and that’s very important for a young player. I know he has been around for a while, but he’s a young kid.’’

Garcia, called “Little Miggy” while a

Tigers teammate of two-time MVP Miguel Cabrera, hadn’t lived up to loftier expectations after Detroit traded him to the Sox, but Cabrera said Garcia held up through that because of management’s continued support. He said the current clubhouse mix and chemistry serve Garcia well, too.

“The group of guys we have here is good for him,’’ Cabrera said. “It’s a nice group of guys here. We try to help each

ceptive. And that’s good.”

The Sox were aiming for their first sweep of a three-game series in Detroit since 2008, but Miguel Gonzalez (3-1) was roughed up for a career-high 14 hits over six innings. Justin Upton homer, former Sox Alex Avila and Nick Castellanos had three hits each, and Jose Iglesias drove in three runs.

“I was up with every pitch,” said Gonzalez, whose ERA climbed from 2.00 to 3.27 with six earned runs allowed.

WHITE SOX NOTES

Kahnle a pleasant surprise with ‘electric stuff’

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

DETROIT – As pleasant surprises went, Tommy Kahnle was way up there for the first month of the 2017 season, although he’s not alone, not even in the White Sox bullpen.

Anthony Swarzak, a nonroster invitee to spring training, didn’t allow a run. But Kahnle, who has always had upper 90s stuff with movement while struggling to command it, has thrown with remarkable efficiency since the Sox called him up April 6 because of an injury to Jake Petricka.

“It’s never been about Tommy’s stuff because Tommy’s stuff is electric,’’ bullpen coach Curt Hasler said.

“He’s throwing the ball downhill better than he ever has, with angle.

When you have that kind of stuff in

the zone, with angle, it’s tough to deal with.”

Yes it is. With 19 strikeouts in 19 innings, Kahnle leads AL relief pitchers in total Ks and whiffs per nine. In the Sox’s 6-4 win over the Tigers on Saturday, he worked a seventh scoreless inning, striking out all three batters he faced in the eighth.

In his past 27 games dating to last season, Kahnle has 37 strikeouts with an ERA of 0.68.

He posted a 2.63 ERA in 2016 to lower his career mark to 4.04, but the control issues that have plagued his career surfaced during spring training, and he failed to make the Opening Day roster.

He had walked 147 in 268 innings of work between the Sox and Rockies.

This year? One walk.

Kahnle has made minor alter-

ations with a smaller leg lift, which helped him get his arm out sooner and his head in line with the plate.

“At the end of spring training we saw some signs,” Hasler said. “Coop [pitching coach Don Cooper] and I talked to him, ‘What is your key?’

It’s throwing downhill. Tommy has embraced that, and he’s been outstanding. As far as anything huge or enlightening [mechanically or delivery-wise], no. It’s about throwing the ball over the plate.

“The guy is blessed with unbelievable stuff.”

Said Derek Holland, who watched Kahnle pitch from the visitors’ clubhouse Saturday after starting the game: “I was in here doing my shoulder stuff and saw one of his pitches and I said, ‘What is that, a slider?’

And it was no, that was 98. It cut clear

across the plate.”

This and that: Jose Abreu, who homered twice Saturday, tripled in a run and singled his first two at-bats and has at least two hits in a career high six straight games. In his past 22 at-bats, Abreu has 12 hits including two homers, two doubles, a triple and five RBIs. • Chris Beck’s two scoreless innings lowered the Sox bullpen’s ERA to 1.94, best in the majors. “They’re attacking the zone and getting ahead in the count,” first-year bullpen coach Curt Hasler said.

• Right-hander Miguel Gonzalez is 1-2 with a 9.57 ERA at Comerica Park after allowing six earned runs (seven overall) in six innings Sunday.

• Jacob May, who replaced Avisail Garcia (tight groin), struck out in his two at-bats and is now 1 for32.

BULLS

Bulls guard Dwyane Wade looks for a shot against Boston Celtics forward Jae Crowder during Game 6 of Friday’s first-round playoff series at the United Center. four straight visits to the NBA Finals.

“It happened at a time in Miami where it just so happened one of my good friends [James] is one of the best players to ever play the game of basketball on the planet,” Wade said. “And something great happened out

of it. That was then. This is now.

It’s a different time.”

At 35, it is for Wade. But if he hears what he wants to hear in the next month from general manager Gar Forman and John Paxson, the veteran is all for picking up the phone and getting at it again.

been talking to potential free agents as far back as last summer with Team USA and then again at the All-Star Game, Butler first wants clarity from his front office so he has a reason to sell the Bulls brand.

Both players want Rondo back unless there’s a bigger-name free agent willing to make the jump, and both see that besides James’ Cleveland Cavaliers, the Eastern Conference allows a No. 8 seed this season to jump into the top four with the right pieces.

But like Wade, Butler wants clarity on a direction.

A Bulls front office source told the Sun-Times on Friday that they’ve already been in contact with Butler about a private meeting, and the focus of that meeting will be a commitment to Butler that has been sorely lacking.

Until then, however, it remains a waiting game.

BEARS

Nobody knows if bold move will pay off for Bears, Pace Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to introduce Mitch Trubisky to the United Center crowd while the Bulls were getting their butts kicked Friday night. Fans booed the Bears’ firstround pick, presumably because they thought he was a huge reach and possibly because the Celtics were busy demolishing their team.

Whatever the reason, it was a bad look for all involved. It wasn’t the kid’s fault that the Bears took a risk on him last week, but he had to listen to the abuse as he was shown on the video board sitting in the stands.

As for Bulls fans, they should be booing themselves for selling out the UC game after game to watch a mediocre product. And now that the Bulls are done, note how seamlessly the discussion has turned to whether Dwyane Wade wants to be a Bull again next season. A 41-41 regular season, an eighth seed, a 4-2 series loss to the Celtics and, well, of course you’d want a 35-year-old back. Fingers crossed.

It wouldn’t be a Bears column if hope didn’t get kidnapped by exasperation.

The Bears were 3-13 last season, and they have plenty of holes in need of filling, which fueled part of the frustration over the Trubisky pick.

But let me see if I have this straight:

VIEWS Rick Morrissey Many of you couldn’t stand Jay Cutler and spent years screaming at the Bears to find a young quarterback.

Now that they’ve done what you asked, many of you are upset that they took a young quarterback. I think they call that a pivot in politics.

After taking Trubisky, the Bears started drafting players you never heard of from schools you never heard of, as if to remind all of us that the NFL is one big crapshoot. The whofrom-where? picks made me smile, not just because it’s fun to say Kutztown University, but because Bears fans had talked so much about the sanctity of the three mid-round picks the team had given to the 49ers to switch first-round spots and grab Trubisky.

And now Bears general manager Ryan Pace was inviting the Clampetts family into the mansion.

Kutztown offensive lineman Jordan Morgan, the Bears’ fifth-round pick, may turn into a fine player.

Same with the players they took from Ashland University and North Carolina A&T, both of which, like Kutztown,

are below the FBS level.

The beauty and beastliness of the draft is that neither you nor I nor the Bears’ talent appraisers can say with certainty that any of these players will succeed. In the same way, no one knows if Trubisky will be the bust so many people are predicting he’ll be.

What we do know is that Pace is either going to be the hero of heroes in Chicago or he’s not going to be allowed to step foot in this city.

There doesn’t seem much room for in between.

That’s why I applauded him after he moved up one spot to choose Trubisky with the No. 2 pick overall. When is the last time the Bears showed that kind of brazenness?

People have mentioned the 2009 Cutler trade as being similarly bold, but Cutler was coming off a Pro Bowl season with the Broncos. There’s no comparison in the audacity department.

Part of the anger over the Trubisky pick comes from a strange place.

It has to do with fans considering themselves general managers these days. These are people who think only an unfortunate twist of fate separates them from a cushy front-office job and a championship ring on their finger.

It’s why, in their eyes, the Bears’ real sin wasn’t so much the choice of

Trubisky as it was the draft picks that they gave up to get him. All we hear now is how important the draft is for an NFL team. It’s considered gospel, and studious fans are its proselytizers.

But put yourself in Pace’s penny loafers. You’ve identified Trubisky as a quarterback who can change the franchise’s fortunes. You’re convinced of it. So let me understand the logic: Because conventional wisdom says the heart of a team is built through the draft, you shouldn’t do all you can to get the player you think will be great?

The Bears hired Pace to find talent.

He believes he has found a quarterback who might be good enough to lead the franchise to its first Super Bowl title since 1985. If you believe in Pace – and, granted, not everybody does – asking him to play it safe and hold on to a few third-round picks seems not just silly but criminal.

The Bears have made the playoffs once in the past 10 seasons. If that doesn’t call for something different, I don’t know what does. I also don’t know if Trubisky will be a success. I do know I’ll very much enjoy finding out.

The list of potential free agents is eye-catching.

Christmas in July, really.

Steph Curry, Blake Griffin, Gordon Hayward, Chris Paul, Paul Millsap … .

And not just NBA A-listers, either. There are role players galore. Need shooting? How about a J.J. Redick. Want a better back-up point guard? Meet Shaun Livingston.

The good news for the Bulls’ front office is Dwyane Wade’s contact list runs deep.

Not only is Jimmy Butler all for recruiting, but Wade has proven to be a master of it.

His finest piece of art is hanging down on South Beach – two championship banners.

It was Wade, along with LeBron James and Chris Bosh, who played the ultimate recruiting game, bringing a Heat franchise

The way Wade sees it is, give him something to sell.

“It’s all about the picture that’s presented to everyone here and what the goal and future is gonna look like,” Wade said. “It’s not just about, ‘Oh we have Dwyane’. Dwyane ain’t gonna play that much longer, not forever. So it’s a different time, a different situation.

“Yeah, if I feel that’s the direction we’re going and the way I would want a guy to come.

When I did that the first time, it was, ‘Let’s win championships.’

I don’t want to tell someone to come here just to come here because I need a friend. If you feel that the team is put in position that that one person or two people would take you to that next level, then I would make that call. But I’m not making that call just to be making a call.”

Butler is in a similar boat.

6 MONSTER ENERGY NASCAR CUP SERIES

Logano pulls away to win at Richmond

By HANK KURZ Jr.

The Asssociated Press RICHMOND, Va. – Joey Logano smiled as if he’d stolen something and got away with it, and that wasn’t far from the truth.

Logano passed distracted and dominant Penske Racing teammate Brad Keselowski on one restart and then pulled away on another with about 20 laps to go to win the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race Sunday at Richmond International Raceway.

“We were just fast enough to break through and kind of steal a win,” Logano said. “We had a decent car. We were in the lead when the caution came out there and we looked like we were in pretty good shape, and then, obviously, to have the good pit stops and all that, I don’t know if you’d call that stealing. We didn’t get lucky. We were able to just do what we know how to do.”

Logano, who qualified fifth but had to start 37th after making a transmission change, grabbed the lead when Keselowski had to make a defensive move to keep Kyle Busch from passing him on the inside. His 18th career

“That’s part of how this racing deal works, and the fastest car doesn’t always win,” Keselowski said.

Keselowski, who had the dominant car for the second half of the race, held on for second, followed by Hamlin, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Kevin Harvick. Dale Earnhardt Jr., in his first race since announcing he will retire at the end of the season, finished 30th.
