Workers inspect a sinkhole Jan. 9 in Philadelphia.

The Philadelphia Water Department said a water main break caused the sinkhole to open up on the street. A recent spate of huge sinkholes is prompting alarm because they’re happening in places where they once were rare.

Huge sinkholes now are appearing in odd places

By ROGER SCHNEIDER The Associated Press

FRASER, Mich. – Dora Linda Nishihara was driving in San Antonio one dark evening in early December when she suddenly disappeared from sight. Later, her car, with her body inside, was found at the bottom of a 12-foot-deep water-filled sinkhole that had swallowed the road ahead of her.

Two days later, a school bus driver in Brooklyn, New York, ran into a huge crater on his route. Luckily, no children were on board and the driver survived with minor injuries.

Just last week, massive holes opened up in New York City’s lower Manhattan, suburban Atlanta and San Francisco.

Sinkholes are not a new phenomenon in the U.S., especially in a half-dozen states where the geology makes them more likely. But a recent spate of huge, sudden-appearing caverns is prompting alarm because they’re happening in places where they shouldn’t, and now seem to be proliferating nationwide. The usual cause: crumbling water, drain and sewer pipes, often neglected by cities with budget problems.

Some experts are calling for a national study to assess the risk and potential remedies, which could involve high costs for many jurisdictions.

WHERE IT’S AT

“The financial impact on cities is in the millions of dollars a year around the country,” said Bob Brinkmann, a professor of geology, environment and sustainability at Hofstra University.

No government agency keeps track of sinkholes from man-made causes. Most of the scientific research has focused on areas where limestone, caves and natural springs create prime conditions for earthen collapses. Florida has the most.

But scientists who study natural sinkholes say the caverns from infrastructure failures are becoming a bigger problem.

From early December through April, according to a review by The Associated Press of media coverage, 39 significant sinkholes related to failing infrastructure – a rate of about one every four days – struck across the country in places as varied as Chicago, Los Angeles, Hoboken, New Jersey, Sioux City, Iowa, and Seattle.

One person was killed and four were injured in the incidents, which also prompted extensive evacuations and disruption of utilities.

On Christmas Eve, a hole the size of a football field suddenly swallowed parts of three houses and a section of road in a Detroit suburb. The sudden crater in San Francisco last week, 20 feet long, pulled in a semi-truck. The cause of that one has not been determined.

‘GROW TOGETHER AS ONE’

McHenry mayor plans to lock up staff for team-building event

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Political newcomer Wayne Jett is planning to lock himself in a room with city staff.

The new McHenry mayor said he’s working with Twisted Limits Escape Rooms to put together an event where each department will have to work together as a team to escape in time and complete the puzzle-filled challenge. Jett plans it as a team-building opportunity.

“This is very important for our team to grow together as one,” Jett said.

The new mayor of McHenry is not the typical politician, but a wellknown, successful businessman in the area. Jett believes his business background has given him the essential skills of how to be a leader and communicate well with others.

Jett has been a McHenry resident for more than 25 years and has a wife, Amber, and four children, who have been his biggest supporters. He has owned Jett’s Heating & Air Inc. in McHenry for 14 years and started the business at age 21. He also is the president of Sideline Marketing & Sports Memorabilia. Jett had taken time away from work for the past several months to focus on campaigning for mayor.

“For me to walk away from my business for seven months and actually bringing in better numbers shows that my leadership, putting people in the right place, engagement and team building is obviously something I’m good at,” Jett said.

Although he’s only had the title of mayor for about a week, Jett said he’s been adjusting to the new lifestyle in the months leading up to it.

“Being that I’ve been involved with staff for the last six months nonstop

Jett said his first few weeks will be about getting to know staff and committee members better.

“The biggest thing in the past two weeks between becoming elected is getting council on my side, letting them know that we’re on the same team,” Jett said.

When Jett became the new mayor

of McHenry, he joined city staff and council members who have years of experience in office. He succeeded longtime Mayor Sue Low, who had served as the city’s leader since 2003.

“A lot of these employees, especially the ones who have been here forever, have great ideas, and I’m listening to them,” Jett said. “I think that’s very important.”

“Needless to say, he has to have the council behind him on different

changes, but to get all the aldermen’s view on all the major issues I think is gratifying,” said 2nd Ward Alderman Andy Glab, who has been on the council for 20 years. “Collectively, we should come up with some really fantastic solutions that will get us in the forefront and moving quickly.”

ALGONQUIN – An Algonquin native will be recognized Sunday for his fundraising efforts at the 20th anniversary of the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Chicago.

Tony Braglia, a Jacobs High School graduate and sophomore at Illinois State University, raised more than $3,600 for the race in honor of his mother, Heidi Braglia, who died in 2013 after a battle with breast cancer.

“She was definitely one of the biggest fighters I’ve ever met,” Braglia said.

Braglia, who is the president of his Sigma Nu fraternity, started raising money on his own when he decided to participate in this year’s Race for the Cure.

At the start of March, some of his fraternity brothers decided to help.

Algonquin native who raised money for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in honor of his mother Nu fraternity Twitter account shared Heidi and Tony’s story, and pledged that for every retweet the message received, the organization would donate $1 to the Race for the Cure, Braglia said.

Within days, the tweet was shared more than 3,000 times.

“It brought me to tears at first that [my fraternity brothers] thought of me like that,” Braglia said.

More importantly, Braglia said it spread awareness on his campus about breast cancer.

After the Twitter fundraiser, Braglia

said he was contacted by Susan G. Komen Chicago about being honored as a “More Than Pink Hero” at the upcoming race.

The heroes are being recognized for their bravery and compassion, and include those who have lost loved ones to cancer, are fighting the disease themselves, activists, volunteers and caregivers, according to a news release from Susan G. Komen Chicago.

Man convicted of murder will not get new trial, judge says

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A McHenry man serving a 30-year prison sentence for fatally stabbing his friend at a party will not get a new trial.

McHenry County Judge Robert Wilbrandt said Victor Bandala-Martinez, 29, failed to carry his burden of proof at an evidentiary hearing Friday by not proving that his constitutional rights were violated.

After a three-day bench trial in May 2010, Judge Joseph Condon found Bandala-Martinez guilty of first-degree murder for twice stabbing a 17-year-old McHenry high school student.

Prosecutors at trial said Bandala-Martinez stabbed Yair Cabrera in December 2008 in the heart and spleen outside a party in a McHenry apartment. The murder happened after Bandala-Martinez and Cabrera had argued about Cabrera telling others that Bandala-Martinez had cheated on his girlfriend, whom Bandala-Martinez married while the murder case was pending.

Bandala-Martinez repeatedly told police that he had jabbed Cabrera with a kitchen fork to try to minimize responsibility for murdering his friend, prosecutors said. Bandala-Martinez later told police that he dropped the weapon while fleeing, and police never found it.

After his conviction, Bandala-Martinez filed a post-conviction petition arguing that his trial lawyer was ineffective for advising him that he would not be able to have a jury trial because

he would have to testify, and therefore his right to testify and his right to a jury trial were compromised.

Over a series of conversations before his trial, Bandala-Martinez said his attorney, then-Assistant Public Defender Christopher Harmon, “manipulated him” by telling him the law required he testify if he went with a jury trial.

Harmon is now an associate judge in the 22nd Judicial Circuit.

Bandala-Martinez testified during the hearing and said he wanted to speak on his behalf at trial, but Harmon told him that he would be at a disadvantage in a jury trial because McHenry County jurors could be racist.

He also claimed that HarVictor mon told him the case Bandalalikely would be decided on the basis of his illegal Martinez status in the country.

He said Harmon told him he wasn’t ready to testify because prosecutors likely would confuse him, make him cry and get him to say things that could potentially hurt his case.

Bandala-Martinez also said interpreters were not present during several conversations between him and his lawyer. This contradicted Harmon’s testimony, who said an interpreter was present for about 90 percent of their conversations before trial. Harmon said Bandala-Martinez spoke “limited English,” but his understanding of the language was functional enough to communicate occasionally without an

interpreter’s assistance.

Harmon said it was Bandala-Martinez’s decision to have a bench trial and they discussed the matter on several occasions, often with an interpreter. He also denied telling Bandala-Martinez that he had to testify, and instead said he told him it was his decision whether he wanted to take the stand.

Bandala-Martinez’s appellate lawyer, Bill Bligh, said his client had a “crystal clear” understanding of what happened because he was on trial for his life facing a first-degree murder charge. He said Bandala-Martinez knew specific details that supported his claims, and because of his claims that Harmon told him he had to testify if he wanted a jury trial both constitutional rights were violated.

Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs said that Bandala-Martinez’s claims were “absolutely preposterous.”

He said Harmon’s testimony was much more credible than the defendant’s “fantastical allegations” and the court record clearly proves Bandala-Martinez understood his rights before and at the time of trial.

Wilbrandt said in his decision that Harmon’s testimony was credible, unlike the testimony of Bandala-Martinez.

He said he believed the defendant was advised of his right to testify and his right to trial by both Harm and former Judge Joseph Condon when he signed a jury waiver and during his bench trial.

The jury waiver also was in Spanish – making it easy for Bandala-Martinez to understand, Wilbrandt said.

Woman pleads guilty to lying in prompting Gliniewicz manhunt

NORTHWEST HERALD RICHMOND – Fire officials are investigating what started a fire that caused $30,000 in damage to a Richmond home over the weekend, a fire official said.

The Richmond Township Fire Protection District responded at 6:29 a.m.

Sunday to 3016 Route 173 for a report of a structure fire. Fire Chief Rick Gallas said the fire, which was located at the back of the structure, was put out within 15 minutes of their arrival. Damage was contained to the kitchen, laundry room and office areas, Gallas said. The occupants of the home were woken up by their dog as there were no working smoke detectors in any of the rooms. There also were no fire hydrants because the home was located in a rural area.

Gallas also said there were no injuries to the occupants of the home or firefighters on the scene.

Spring Grove, Wonder Lake, Hebron-Alden-Greenwood, McHenry Township, Antioch, Fox Lake, Twin Lakes, Wisconsin, and Randall, Wisconsin, fire departments also assisted.

WAUKEGAN – A suburban Chicago woman must pay two law enforcement agencies $20,000 for falsely telling investigators she had information in a police officer’s 2015 death.

Kristin Kiefer of Vernon Hills told police two men tried to get into her vehicle while it was stopped along Route 12 near Volo. Her report set off a manhunt for the possible killers of Fox Kristin B. Lake police Lt. Charles Kiefer Joseph Gliniewicz. It was later determined Gliniewicz tried to make his suicide appear as if he was gunned down in the line of duty in order to hide thefts from a youth program.

Kiefer later told investigators she made up the story because she wanted attention.

As part of an agreement Monday to plead guilty to felony disorderly conduct, the 32-year-old Kiefer also was sentenced to two years of probation and 250 hours of public service.

Mexican restaurant gets liquor license, to open on Route 14

Anthony Braglia, a student at Illinois State, started raising money for the race in honor of his mother, who died of breast cancer in 2013.

He is being honored at the Susan G. Komen Race for a Cure on May 14.

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The City Council granted a liquor license to one restaurant, the privilege of serving outdoors to a second, and a video gambling permit to a third.

Council members granted a new liquor license to Carlos Mexican Grill 3, which is locating in the former Pizza Hut at 282 W. Virginia St. Fire Bar and Grill, at 435 Angela Lane, got permission to serve outdoors in a patio area.

Kumi Sushi, 1145 S. Route 31, received the 14th license to have video gambling machines since the city reversed its ban last year.

Seda, two members of the Chicago Police Department and several survivors also will be recognized with Braglia, according to the release.

Susan G. Komen’s mission is to save lives and end breast cancer by funding research, ensuring quality care for all and empowering people with knowledge, according to the release.

Presence Health, the largest Catholic health system in Illinois, is sponsoring the heroes.

This year’s 5K fun run/walk kicks off at 9 a.m. at Montrose Harbor, 601 W. Montrose Ave., Chicago. To register for the race or to donate, visit www.

Braglia will be participating in the race for the first time since he went with his mother in 2010. He will be joined by family members, including his 17-year-old sister, Mia Braglia, and father, Tony Braglia.

permit was approved on a 4-2 vote – members Brett Hopkins and Cathy Ferguson opposed the reversal of the gambling ban.

Crystal Lake’s ordinance allows local establishments that serve liquor on the premises to have up to three machines – state law allows five. Establishments cannot have exterior signage advertising video gambling, and neither interior signs nor the machines themselves can be visible from the outside. The city charges two annual fees totaling $1,100, plus a $500 fee a machine, and applicants also must sign an agreement promising not to go to court to get the city’s ordinance softened.

Lakewood has the sole remaining ban in place on video gambling in McHenry County. Its village board voted in February to keep it in place.

Continued from page A3 expects Jett to bring a fresh perspective to the city with a sound vision of how to enhance the community.

“He will bring some of his wonderful skills into the city, and some of those skills are focused on small businesses, their success and needs,” Bates said. “And the other one would be marketing. He is an unusual and unique marketer of this organization, and he will definitely bring skills in that area.”

Now that he’s in office, Jett said his immediate plans involve working on starting an economic development commission and bringing community leaders together to help with the goal of attracting new businesses.

“Since being elected, I’ve been in here full time,” Jett said. “I think it’s important for our community and for myself ... to be in here and meeting with the new businesses. Since being

McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

The crash closed down Route 14 between Oak Grove Road and Hebron Road for about an hour and a half, according to a Nixle alert sent out by the sheriff’s office.

Davidson said Harvard Fire and the sheriff’s office also were assisted by Woodstock Fire Rescue/District and Mercy MD-1, a medically equipped and emergency medicine physician-staffed vehicle.

Charges are pending for traffic citations, according to the sheriff’s office.

The investigation is ongoing by the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office Major Traffic Crash Investigations Unit.

elected, I’ve met with over 20 new opportunities for businesses to come into our community. And I think right now that’s important in getting the right people in place to bring that to reality.”

Jett said he wants to start up an advisory group for small businesses and create a community involvement committee run by volunteers who want to help beautify the city. At Jett’s first meeting as mayor, the City Council approved a motion to authorize staff to publicly bid the 2017 Street Resurfacing Program. Jett said a goal of his is to find more money to go toward improving roads.

The McHenry mayor also wants to increase communication to the community, something he promised during his campaign.

“I’m working with staff that does our social media to really help increase that opportunity for us,” Jett said.

Jett is a member of the company that submitted an application to rede-

velop the former McHenry downtown theater building on Green Street. But the McHenry mayor doesn’t believe he’ll run into any conflicts of interests between his work as mayor and being an investor in the theater.

“As a community, if we want to move forward, this downtown theater is going to be, or has been, the start of the future of our community to having a vibrant downtown,” he said.

Jett said he got involved because the funds were not all there, and he was asked to help out. The McHenry mayor said he’s not on the lease and is a “silent investor.”

“At the time, I thought it was great opportunity to be involved in the community, and the historic theater was definitely something that interested me,” Jett said.

“Once my money is paid back, I would not have any problem selling my portion and getting out. It was more of a startup opportunity for the theater; otherwise it would not have happened.”

Five local service agencies will be implementing a web-based electronic health record system to enhance analysis, data integrity and reporting of services funded through taxpayer dollars.

The McHenry County Mental Health Board approved $43,850 to support the program for the Home of the Sparrow, NAMI McHenry County, TLS Veterans, New Directions Addictions Recovery Services and Garden Quarter Neighborhood Resource Center, according to a news release from Home of the Sparrow, the lead agency for the project.

Each agency spends hours on data collection and reporting of client services, and the new system will reduce this time and allow more time to be spent on direct services that align with each agency’s mission, according to the news release.

Home of the Sparrow initiated the creation of software several months ago through EMK Consulting Group LLC to adapt the webbased client management system to the county’s needs, according to the release.

Since the creation, the system has resulted in improvements in process efficiencies, analysis, data integrity and reporting, the release stated.

The project is expected to be completed in September, and the program has the capacity to expand to meet future needs and address long-term agency sustainability, according to the release.

HARVARD – A 22-year-old Harvard man was flown to the hospital in critical condition Saturday after a crash on Route 14 east of Harvard.

Harvard Fire Protection District Battalion Chief Don Davidson said crews responded to a call made about 3:20 p.m. Saturday to the report of a car and motorcycle crash on Route 14 in unincorporated Harvard, near the Wisconsin-Illinois border.

Upon arrival, firefighters found a man who was driving a 1995 Kawasaki motorcycle with serious injuries.

Davidson said Flight for Life was

called and the man was airlifted to OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center in Rockford. As of Monday, the status of the patient wasn’t immediately available.

A 62-year-old Wheaton woman, the driver of the car, was not hurt.

A preliminary investigation found the motorcycle was heading south on Route 14 when it crossed into the northbound lane and sideswiped a 2011 Nissan Murano driving north, according to the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

The driver was wearing her seat belt and there was no air bag deployment. The driver of the motorcycle was not wearing a helmet, according to the

Funeral set for Pingree Grove teen killed in crash

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com HAMPSHIRE – Money is being raised to help cover funeral and legal expenses for the family of Brianna Soto, a 17-year-old Pingree Grove girl who was killed in a two-vehicle crash Thursday night near Hampshire.

Soto was a junior at Hampshire High School, according to a GoFundMe page created by Veronica Peralez Puente on behalf of Soto’s family. As of Monday night, about $1,420 had been raised.

“She had her own style, she loved makeup, clothes and was very trendy,” the GoFundMe page read. “But most importantly, [she] loved her mom, dad, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends as she was greatly loved and will be missed by many.”

Soto was driving a 2005 Toyota Corolla at about 8:20 p.m. on Dietrich Road between Route 20 and Brier Hill Road when it crossed the center line and struck a 2005 Ford SUV, according to a preliminary investigation from the Kane County Sheriff’s Office.

Soto was pronounced dead at Cen-

A GoFundMe page was created for her family to help cover funeral and legal expenses. tegra Hospital – Huntley, and the McHenry County Coroner’s Office revealed the cause of death to be blunt trauma to the head and abdomen. The passenger of Soto’s car and four teenag-

ers in the Ford – from Lake in the Hills, Algonquin, Hampshire and Huntley – were sent to the hospital for injuries that were not considered life-threatening, police said.

Gander Mountain going out of business; future of Algonquin store still uncertain SHAW MEDIA ALGONQUIN – The new owners could not be immediately reached Monday regarding plans for Gander Mountain, which is going out of business in Algonquin and elsewhere.

Closing sales began Friday at all remaining Gander Mountain stores, but some locations apparently will stay open under another format.

Camping World announced Monday that it plans to operate 70 or more Gander Mountain stores but did not identify locations.

Lincolnshire-based Camping World acquired Gander Mountain Co. and its Overton’s boating business in a bankruptcy auction April 27 and April 28.

Camping World Chairman and CEO Marcus Lemonis in a written statement Monday said the company plans to operate 70 or more Gander Mountain locations depending on the ability to negotiate acceptable lease terms with building owners and approval from the bankruptcy court.

On Monday, Lemonis was posting updates on his Twitter account of stores that would remain open. As of about 5:30 p.m., the only Illinois locations listed were Marion, Peoria and Springfield.

In the meantime, Gander Mountain is liquidating inventory at all 126 of its remaining locations.

“The current liquidation of the existing Gander Mountain inventory will allow us to start with a clean slate of what we consider the appropriate mix and level of inventory, including the addition of Camping World and Over-

ton’s offerings where appropriate,” Lemonis said in the statement.

Camping World operates 125 stores in 36 states, specializing in the sale of recreational vehicles, parts and accessories. The company has one Illinois store in Wauconda. Camping World had a store in Bolingbrook that closed several years ago.

Although the crash still is under investigation by Kane County Sheriff’s detective and members of the Kane County Accident Reconstruction Team, deputies believe that distracted driving might have played a role in the crash, police said.

In a video posted on the What’s Happening in Elgin IL? Facebook page, Soto’s parents ask for anyone with information on the crash to come forward. They also expressed frustration with police on obtaining information on the crash.

“There are so many unanswered questions as to what happened and how,” the GoFundMe page reads. “The family is looking for those answers and also asking if anyone has any info to please come out and speak.”

Visitation for Soto has been set for 4 to 8 p.m. Wednesday at DeFiore-Jorgensen funeral home, 10763 Dundee Road, Huntley. A funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10 a.m. Thursday at St. Mary Catholic Church, 10307 Dundee Road, Huntley.

Police warn of gangs, high-powered weapons

By DON BABWIN

The Associated Press CHICAGO – Chicago police issued a bulletin Monday warning its officers about gangs armed with high-powered weapons, after three people were shot to death over the weekend – including two attending a memorial for the earlier victim.

Department spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said the three people who were killed in the shootings Sunday were all members of the same street gang.

A shooting early in the day left one man dead, and the two others were killed and eight people were injured in a spray of more than two dozen shots from two guns while attending a makeshift memorial for him. Police suspect they were all shot by members of a rival street gang in the same neighborhood on Chicago’s southwest side.

The department beefed up patrols after the morning shooting of 26-year-old Daniel Cordova, who was found dead between parked cars in the Brighton Park neighborhood. The other shooting happened some 12 hours later, about a block away.

Given the very real possibility that the gang war has not played itself out,

Madigan names envoys to approach Rauner on budget

SPRINGFIELD – The Democratic speaker of the Illinois House has appointed envoys to find areas of compromise on a state budget deal with Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner.

Speaker Michael Madigan said Monday that Majority Leader Barbara Flynn Currie of Chicago is one of four House Democrats who will seek common ground with the GOP administration on the state’s first full budget since 2015.

Democrats have sought cuts and a tax increase to deal with $12 billion in pastdue bills. Rauner first wants tightened restrictions on workers’ compensation and a local property tax freeze.

Democratic state Treasurer Michael Frerichs echoed Madigan’s concern in a separate statement Monday. He said the

It also has issued a warning about gunmen with weapons powerful enough to pierce bullet-proof vests.

“Given the type of shootings and the

incident last week (in which two offers suffered gunshot wounds about 2 miles away) we have put out an officer safety bulletin,” said Guglielmi.

Guglielmi said the incident in which two officers were shot while sitting in a car does not appear to be connected to

state’s credit worthiness could sink to junk status without a budget by the end of the month.

That figure outpaced national growth, which saw stays increase 2.4 percent.

Officials said the number of U.S. travelers coming to the state has increased by 19 million during the last decade.

Data show more U.S. tourists visiting state, staying longer

CHICAGO – New Illinois tourism figures show about 110 million tourists from around the country visited the state last year, a more than 1 million increase compared to 2015.

Eighty-three percent of visitors came for leisure and 17 percent came for business, The Chicago Tribune reported. Gov. Bruce Rauner released the numbers Monday, saying that every $1 invested in tourism in Illinois generates $9 in economic impact.

“This is another example that in areas where we can improve the economy, our administration is moving forward,” Rauner said in a statement. “Illinois is the greatest state in the nation. We have so much to be proud of and so many reasons to invite our out-of-state friends to visit the Land of Lincoln.”

According to the Illinois Office of Tourism, the average stay lasted about 3 percent longer than the previous year.

Sinclair to buy Tribune Media, expand local TV reach

NEW YORK – Sinclair Broadcast Group, already the nation’s largest local TV station operator, wants to be even bigger.

The company announced Monday that it will pay about $3.9 billion for Tribune Media and its 42 stations, which includes KTLA in Los Angeles, WGN in Chicago and WPIX in New York. Chicago-based Tribune also owns stakes in the Food Network and job-search website CareerBuilder.

Sinclair has 173 stations, including KUTV in Salt Lake City, KOMO in Seattle and WKRC in Cincinnati. The Tribune deal, plus other pending acquisitions, will give it a total of 233 stations, putting distance between it and rival Nexstar Media Group, which has 170.

Sinclair said it might have to sell some stations to comply with Federal Communications Commission rules, although the

the bloody gang feud that erupted Sunday. Combined, however, they are the latest examples of what they have seen as a greater willingness of arm themselves with weapons most associated with soldiers in battle.

At the scene of the second shooting alone, Guglielmi said that more than two dozen shell casings were recovered, with police believing that there were two people firing the weapons.

“We believe it was related to the memorial, a number of the people there knew the victim, and the rival gang observed that and took advantage,” he said.

He also said that the man who was killed earlier in the day and the man and woman killed later in the day were all among about 1,400 people who, because of such factors as criminal records or gang ties, were on a list of those in the city most likely to commit gun violence or be targeted by it. He said the names of two others who were injured in the second shooting are on the same list.

The Cook County Medical Examiner’s office had not released the names of two victims Monday afternoon pending notification of kin.

No arrests had been made in either shooting incident as of Monday afternoon.

FCC has recently loosened rules related to media ownership. Sinclair is also in the process of buying Bonten Media Group, which owns 14 stations, for $240 million.

The Daily Herald reported that the Lake County Major Crash Assistance Team is using camera-carrying drones to help view accident scenes, take measurements and reconstruct what happened.

Drones sometimes can see evidence better from the air than investigators can on the ground. That can include identifying fluid trails from broken brake lines that indicate how an accident unfolded.

Among the advantages is that investigators can finish working at an accident scene faster and reopen roads sooner.

Libertyville police Detective Belinda Steckenrider told the newspaper that on-site work that used to take up to five hours can be cut to less than three hours with drones.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Trump moves to get more county’s median family income of conservatives on fed bench $90,500 as the 17th wealthiest WASHINGTON – The Trump administration on Monday named 10 judges and other law professionals it plans to nominate for key posts as President Donald Trump works to place more conservatives on the nation’s federal courts.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer said that among the candidates are individuals previously named on Trump’s list of 21 possible picks for Supreme Court justice. All nominees would require Senate confirmation.

The announcement came less than a month after Trump’s pick for the Supreme Court, Neil Gorsuch, was confirmed, restoring the court’s conservative tilt.

Yates: I warned admin about Russian blackmail

Ex-AG testifies that she knew of potential Flynn connection, lies

By ERIC TUCKER and EILEEN SULLIVAN The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Former acting Attorney General Sally Yates told Congress on Monday she bluntly warned the Trump White House in January that new National Security Adviser Michael Flynn “essentially could be blackmailed” by the Russians because he apparently had lied to his bosses about his contacts with Moscow’s ambassador in Washington.

The testimony from Yates, an Obama administration holdover fired soon after for other reasons, marked her first public comments about the concerns she raised and filled in basic details about the chain of events that led to Flynn’s ouster in February.

Her testimony, coupled with the revelation hours earlier that President Barack Obama himself had warned Donald Trump against hiring Flynn shortly after the November election, made clear that alarms about Flynn had reached the highest levels of the U.S. government months before. Flynn had been an adviser to Trump and an outspoken supporter of his presidential candidacy in the 2016 campaign.

Yates, appearing before a Senate panel investigating Russian interference in the election, described discussions with Don McGahn, the Trump White House counsel, in which she warned that Flynn apparently had misled the administration about his communications with Sergey Kislyak, the Russian ambassador.

White House officials, including Vice President Mike Pence, had insisted that Fly-

But they asked Flynn to resign after news reports indicated he had lied about the nature of the calls.

“We felt like it was critical that we get this information to the White House, in part because the vice president was unknowingly making false statements to the public and because we believed that Gen. Flynn was compromised with respect to the Russians,” Yates said.

“To state the obvious,” she added, “you don’t want your national security adviser compromised with the Russians.”

She said she was briefing the Trump White House so that they could take “the action that they deemed appropriate” and that she believed the Russians had the same information.

Yates’ questioning by a Senate panel investigating Russian interference in the presidential election was just one portion of a politically charged day that began with combative tweets from Trump and continued with disclosures from Obama administration officials about a private Oval Office conversation between Obama and his successor.

Republican senators in the hearing repeatedly pressed Yates on an unrelated mat-

ter – her refusal to defend the Trump administration’s travel ban – and whether she was responsible for leaking classified information. She said she was not.

Trump shouldered into the conversation in the morning, tweeting that it was the Obama administration, not he, that had given Lt. Gen. Flynn “the highest security clearance” when he worked at the Pentagon. Trump made no mention of the fact that Flynn had been fired from his high position by the Obama administration in 2014.

Yates filled in new details of the events of Jan. 26, describing contacting McGahn in the morning and telling him she had something sensitive to discuss in person. Later that day, at the White House, she told him there was an alarming discrepancy between how Trump officials, including Pence, were characterizing Flynn’s contacts with Kislyak and what intelligence officials knew to be true based on recordings they’d reviewed.

The pair spoke several times over the next two days, with McGahn asking Yates how Flynn had fared during an interview with the FBI earlier that week – she did not answer – and why it was the concern of the Justice Department if White House officials had misled each other.

Fight for health care bill shifts to Senate

By ALAN FRAM

The Associated Press

McConnell has included himself in a group of 12 GOP senators essentially tasked with privately producing a bill that can pass the Senate. Republicans control the chamber 52-48.

Democrats are virtually certain to unanimously oppose the Republican effort to repeal much of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul.

So Republicans are using a special process preventing a Democratic filibuster that would require 60 votes to end.

McConnell will need 50 GOP votes to pass a bill, a tie Vice President Mike Pence could break.

That means McConnell can lose just two Republicans, so his group has a strategically shaped membership.

WASHINGTON – It took blood, sweat and tears for Republican leaders to finally push their health care bill through the House last week. Don’t expect the process to be less arduous in the Senate, though more of the angst in that more decorous chamber will likely be behind closed doors.

No one expects a new bill to be written quickly, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has started a process for producing one. Republican senators have made clear their measure will differ markedly from the House legislation, which has drawn withering criticism from Democrats who see it as a pathway to winning a The group’s roster House majority in the 2018 elections.

Sens. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., “This process will not be quick or Mike Enzi, R-Idaho, and Orrin Hatch, simple or easy, but it must be done,” R-Utah, chair pivotal committees.

McConnell said Monday.

Sens. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, and Cory Gardner, R-Colo., are from states that McConnell’s working group used Obama’s law to add hundreds of McConnell dislikes surprises and thousands of beneficiaries to Medicdrama. Both characterized the House’s aid, an expansion they want to protect chaotic four months of work on its but the House bill would end. Gardner bill, which saw revolts by conserva- chairs the Senate GOP’s campaign tives and moderates derail initial ver- committee.

Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Mike sions and humiliate President Donald Trump and Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis. Lee, R-Utah, are conservative fire-

brands who represent states that didn’t expand Medicaid but want additional funds for that program. Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, John Thune, R-S.D., and John Barrasso, R-Wyo., are in the Senate GOP leadership, and Tom Cotton, R-Ark., is an ambitious up-andcomer who frequently criticizes the House measure.

Democrats and liberal activists have lambasted McConnell for appointing a group with no female members.

Possible changes

Portman is among Republicans whose states dislike the House’s Medicaid cuts because they’d face a wave of constituents losing coverage under the health care program for the poor.

The House would end the extra federal money states get for new beneficiaries under Obama’s Medicaid expansion by 2020, and some GOP senators want a delay.

Much Medicaid money is used to combat the illegal use of addictive opioid drugs. That’s another reason for GOP senators from hard-hit Midwestern and Northeastern states to oppose such cuts.

Obama’s law helps millions buy private insurance with federal subsidies geared to income and policy premi-

ums. The House instead links its aid to age, with older people getting larger tax credits. Thune and others want to shift the subsidies more generous to lower earners.

Cruz said House conservatives won “a positive improvement” with provisions letting states get federal waivers so insurers can charge some people with pre-existing conditions higher premiums, and letting states decide which medical services insurers must cover. He said “considerably more work” was needed to lower premiums.

In addition, the filibuster-free process Republicans are using requires that legislative provisions be related to raising or decreasing the federal deficit, and not primarily driven by policy changes. Conservative health care analyst James Capretta said the odds for survival “are low” for House language allowing state waivers for higher premiums on people with pre-existing conditions.

Also in jeopardy: a provision forbidding consumers to use federal subsidies to buy insurance covering abortion.

The Senate parliamentarian will decide whether provisions must be stricken from the bill. The Senate could override that with 60 votes.

PARIS – Freshly elected to the French presidency, Emmanuel Macron now faces an equally difficult Act II: securing the parliamentary majority he needs to make good on his campaign promises to lift France out of economic gloom.

With legislative elections just five weeks away, the start-up political movement the 39-year-old former investment banker launched one year ago on his meteoric ride to become France’s youngest president lost no time Monday in girding for the crucial mid-June election battle.

Without a working majority, Macron could quickly become a lame-duck president, unable to push through labor reforms and other measures he promised to the broadly disgruntled electorate – shown by a record result for his defeated far-right opponent, Marine Le Pen, and a record number of blank and spoiled ballots in Sunday’s runoff vote.

The transfer of power to Macron will take place Sunday, outgoing President Francois Hollande announced. Macron is already looking the part.

He shed his breezier campaign demeanor for a solemn, more statesman-like look in his first appearances after his victory and again Monday, at a sober ceremony with Hollande to commemorate Germany’s defeat in World War II. The pomp of the ceremony, at the imposing Arc de Triomphe at the top of the Champs-Elysees Avenue in Paris, immediately helped lend a presidential air to the previously untested leader who fought and won his first election.

It was the first time Hollande and

Macron appeared together in public since August 2016. That was when Macron resigned as Hollande’s economy minister to embark on his risky presidential run as an independent – a decision received coldly by the French leader at the time.

On Monday, though, Hollande gripped Macron’s arm before the two men walked side by side. The ceremony marked decades of peace in Western Europe, something Macron made a cornerstone of his campaign against Le Pen’s brand of nationalist populism. Le Pen campaigned for France to leave the 28-nation European Union and drop the shared euro currency in favor of reinstating a new French franc.

Yet to move into the presidential Elysee Palace, Macron is already preparing his first days in power. Sylvie Goulard, a French deputy to the European Parliament, said Macron would make Berlin his first official visit, with perhaps a stop to see French troops stationed abroad as well.

Macron’s optimistically named “En Marche!” – “On the Move” – political movement plans to field candidates for all 577 National Assembly seats. But it will be contesting its first-ever election.

As part of his effort to convince voters that both he and his movement marked a break with the status quo, Macron previously promised that half of its candidates will be new to elected politics.

That means many of them may be burdened by the handicap of being largely unknown to voters in constituencies they compete for.

Split 50-50 between men and women, they’ll have Macron’s example for inspiration: Contesting his first election, he handily beat Le Pen with 66 percent of Sunday’s vote and tore up France’s political map.

New French leader seeking majority

NEW YORK – The nation’s most prominent domestic violence hotline reports a sharp increase in calls from abuse victims struggling with issues related to their immigration status.

The National Domestic Violence Hotline, established by Congress in 1996 and partly reliant on federal funding, says in its newly released annual report that it responded to 323,660 phone calls, texts and online contacts in 2016. Of these calls, 7,053 evoked immigration-related issues – up nearly 30 percent from 2015.

Katie Ray-Jones, the hotline’s CEO, said many of the callers were not U.S. citizens and were warned by their abusers that they and their families would be deported if the abuse was reported to the police. In some cases, she said, the abusers had threatened to call federal immigration authorities.

Ray-Jones said the surge in immigration-related calls became noticeable in mid-2016 at a time when Donald Trump was clinching the Republican presidential nomination and the GOP platform was echoing his calls for tough enforcement of immigration laws.

One worrisome development, RayJones said, is that relatives, friends and neighbors of immigrant abuse victims who might have reported abuse in the past are now wary of doing so for fear they might be targeted for deportation.

In the current environment, hotline staffers find it challenging to respond to some of the calls, Ray-Jones said.

“We’re not in a place where we can say, ‘Oh, don’t worry. That’s not going to happen,’ ” she said.

She said hotline staffers still encourage victims to seek refuge at domestic violence shelters, even though

some victims fear such facilities might be targeted by immigration authorities. “We’ve yet to hear of a story of a shelter being raided,” Ray-Jones said.

Release of the new hotline data comes amid widening debate over how federal immigration policies are affecting domestic violence.

Many activists engaged in immigration and domestic violence issues were outraged when a transgender woman was arrested on an immigration charge in February by federal agents in an El Paso, Texas, courthouse as she obtained a protective order against an abusive boyfriend.

Since then, officials in several cities, including Denver Mayor Michael Hancock and Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck, have expressed concern that some domestic violence victims might not report the abuse or come to court out of fear of arrest and deportation.

Kim Gandy, president of the National Network to End Domestic Violence, said it made sense that immigration-related calls to the hotline, which allows callers to remain anonymous, would increase during this period.

“It’s no surprise that’s someone who’s being abused, but fears deportation if she calls the police, would reach out to the national hotline to try to find out if she has any other options,” Gandy said.

Gandy said some abusers were warning that their victims would be deported, while their children, if U.S. citizens, would remain in the U.S. and might themselves be at risk of abuse.

“It’s about the worst threat you can make to someone,” Gandy said.

In April, the Homeland Security Department said it can’t promise that immigrants in the U.S. illegally won’t be arrested if they come forward to report they have been a victim of a crime or a witness to one.

OUR VIEW

Discontinue those pricey pamphlets

With no budget deal in sight, Illinois General Assembly members continue working in other areas.

One of those topics has to do with how Illinoisans should be notified that a state constitutional amendment will be on an upcoming ballot.

Last fall, the road fund “lock box” amendment was publicized by the Illinois secretary of state’s office in two ways: publication of a legal notice in newspapers across the state, and the printing and mailing of millions of informational pamphlets to Illinois voters.

Voters went on to approve the proposal with a nearly 79 percent majority.

In tight financial times, is this the most efficient way to get the word out about constitutional amendments?

State Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington, doesn’t think so.

McSweeney sponsored a bill, which passed the House, 108-0, but is undergoing reconsideration, that would get the secretary of state’s office out of the pamphlet printing and mailing business.

McSweeney wants to see constitutional amendments publicized in newspapers, as before, and also posted on the secretary of state’s website.

No more would taxpayers have to pay for printing millions of pamphlets and the postage to mail them.

The cost savings per proposed constitutional amendment, McSweeney estimates, would be about $1.3 million.

We believe in widespread dissemination of information about elections.

We believe it’s worthwhile to spend taxpayer dollars to do so.

We also believe in cost-efficiency.

The question is, where do taxpayers get the best bang for

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

their buck?

A study conducted by the News Media Alliance supports newspapers as a cost-efficient tool to inform voters of issues such as constitutional amendments.

The survey found: 1) Of people who voted in the last local election, 86 percent read newspapers in print or online; the levels of engagement are consistent for Democrats, Republicans and independents.

2) Young voters (ages 18 to 34) read newspapers in print or online at a 79 percent rate.

3) Of voters who contribute to campaigns, 91 percent read newspapers in print or online.

Not to mention that people are accustomed to relying on their local newspapers for information about elections.

The survey’s conclusion: To reach people who actually show up at the polls, newspapers are the way to go.

Turning toward printing and mailing pamphlets, McSweeney and others doubt the cost-effectiveness of that practice.

And their doubts are well-founded.

Think about it. During election season, the U.S. Postal Service is overloaded with direct-mail campaign attack ads – to the rising disgust of voters who can’t wait for the discord in their mailboxes to end.

A constitutional pamphlet arriving in the mail before Election Day easily could suffer the same fate as those loathed campaign mailers – being tossed, unread, into the trash.

In an era of debt, deficits and budget impasses, the state needs to shepherd its resources, not throw its money into the trash.

McSweeney’s bill recognizes this.

It should be approved by the full General Assembly and signed by the governor.

ANOTHER VIEW

Same-sex marriage is law of the land W. Mitchell Nance, a family court judge in Kentucky, has enfolded himself in a cocoon of principled self-righteousness by declaring that, “as a matter of conscience,” he will refuse to hear any adoption cases initiated by gay or lesbian parents.

The judge is entitled to his opinions.

However, having declared his unwillingness to enforce the law and his open prejudice against an entire class of Americans – including litigants who may bring other cases before him – he is not entitled to remain on the bench.

The law of the land is clear. The Supreme Court ruled in 2015 that samesex marriage must be permitted in all states. Kentucky, like every one of the 50 states, allows adoption by gay couples. What Nance regards as “a matter of conscience,” then, is in fact in direct defiance of settled law. If a judge cannot accept the law, and in fact is, by his own account, incapable of impartial and fair adjudication of that law, he is, as “a matter of conscience,” duty-bound to seek a new line of work.

There are widely accepted criteria by which judges can and must recuse themselves; the conviction that the law itself is illegitimate is not one of them.

A judge should recuse himself if he or an immediate family member has a personal interest in a case, by dint of financial, personal or family relationship. He should recuse himself if he is plainly biased against one or the other party in a case that comes before him in a

proceeding. Bias against a whole slice of the population is a different, and disqualifying, matter, and renders Nance unfit to serve.

The law does not tolerate discrimination based on race, religion or sexual orientation, but Nance does, by his own admission. He acknowledged to a local journalist that homosexuals might have legitimate reservations about appearing before him, which they might in custody or divorce cases, among other proceedings.

The judge is as heedless of fact as he is of his duty. In a written order explaining his blanket recusal, he wrote that “under no circumstance” would the best interest of a child be served in an adoption by a “practicing homosexual.” In fact, the vast bulk of research shows that children adopted by gay parents fare as well as those adopted by heterosexual couples.

Nance’s stance is akin to that of Kim Davis, the Kentucky county clerk who, on religious grounds, refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples after the Supreme Court ruling that they must be allowed nationwide. In Davis’ case, her so-called conscientious objection was rendered moot by legislation in Kentucky that scrapped the requirement that county clerks sign marriage licenses. In Nance’s case, no such work-around is possible or justified. Family court judges must hear adoption cases. And if Nance cannot fulfill that duty, he is no longer equipped to do his job.

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

– The Washington Post

VIEWS Rich Miller campaigns for governor. Insiders, elected officials and politically connected union leaders have been jumping on his bandwagon from the get-go, usually after being impressed with Pritzker during oneon-one meetings.

The game plan seems pretty obvious. Pritzker doesn’t want those folks and groups endorsing Chris Kennedy, whose last name is still immensely popular and whose own connections over the decades would’ve guaranteed him support from his party’s elders if Pritzker and his infinite bank account hadn’t stepped in.

Kennedy doesn’t have Pritzker’s kind of money, so Kennedy is perceived as needing support from the people and groups who fund and staff the party’s apparatus. At the moment, those folks are streaming toward Pritzker amid a cacophony of whispers (all denied) that House Speaker Michael Madigan is directing the traffic. Starve Kennedy of money and foot soldiers, and maybe he’ll drop out.

Kennedy, whose personal wealth is substantial but nothing like Pritzker’s, has made some half-hearted attempts to claim that endorsements don’t matter whenever he loses

them. But he hasn’t yet embraced (or maybe doesn’t even recognize) the role that’s literally being thrust upon him. Kennedy’s originally preferred path of being the widely endorsed “inevitable” candidate is now owned by Pritzker. By default, Kennedy’s now the most prominent “outsider” in the race.

After almost two and a half years of Rauner’s rule, the government is in shambles. Rauner’s first campaign video back in 2013 complained that the state had “the highest unemployment in the Midwest,” and that’s still true today. He pointed to the state’s “lowest credit rating in America,” and that’s only gotten worse. “Springfield is broken; $8,000 in pension debt for every man, woman and child,” Rauner bemoaned in the video. That figure is now $10,000.

So, maybe Illinois voters will yearn for someone who can work with Springfield to solve our massive problems and get us back to a semblance of normalcy after three populist governors in a row couldn’t get anything done. That appears to be where both Pritzker and Kennedy are going.

If Rauner doesn’t obtain a budget deal, he will simply run against the establishment again, claiming the evil powers that be (Speaker Madigan) have blocked him at every turn, but that he is “very close” to breaking their self-serving logjam.

And, indeed, if he is re-elected after

what could be four years of gridlock, the Democrats will have to start working with him. Democrats claim that Rauner hid his “real” agenda from voters in 2014. But that agenda is now crystal clear to everyone.

Almost half of Illinois Democrats voted for insurgent presidential candidate Bernie Sanders a year ago. A recent poll by the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute showed that Rauner is slightly more popular than Madigan in Chicago, of all places.

So an authentic, independent, populist message from the late Robert Kennedy’s sincere, accomplished and mild-mannered son could very well resonate.

One of the things you can’t help but notice in the media coverage of Kennedy’s downstate appearances is the reports on crowd size. His family name is packing halls all over the place as locals come out to witness a part of history.

The obvious question is whether Kennedy can sustain this. His name and the hints of his family’s famous accent in his speaking voice are working like a charm for him right now. But will it last?

If he embraces a different direction, I think the answer could be yes.

IT’S YOUR WRITE Call out the Guard

To the Editor: In order to get a budget passed by June, Gov. Bruce Rauner should call out the Illinois National Guard. Have the Guard surround the Capitol building while the House and Senate are in session and prevent food from coming in until a budget is passed. Since the House and Senate don’t understand what a budget is, extreme measures are needed to make Illinois a better state, improve the bond rating of the state and stop the exodus of residents to surrounding states.

Illinois has elected just two wealthy people to major statewide office in the past 20 years: former U.S. Sen. Peter Fitzgerald and Gov. Bruce Rauner.

Both candidates won because they ran as firm, anti-establishment outsiders.

Fitzgerald was best known as a state senator in the 1990s for railing against the elders who ran his Republican Party, including many who had been supplying the GOP with loads of money over the years and who’d used their positions to handsomely profit off of state business.

Rauner also ran against his party’s insiders when he launched his campaign, dismissing them as bought and paid for by Springfield’s special interests.

What establishment party support both men received mostly came at the end of their general election campaigns. Their personal finances, which allowed them to self-fund, kept them free of establishment taint, and that independence gave both of them credibility as outsiders.

As election day neared, some establishment GOP figures decided they’d better swallow their pride and get on board. The establishment needed the insurgents more than the insurgents needed the establishment.

Buffett faults United but sticks with investments The ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK – Warren Buffett said Monday that United Airlines bungled the case of the passenger dragged off a plane last month, and he is criticizing the CEO’s handling of the incident.

Buffett also said airplanes “may become like cattle cars,” but that’s because a significant number of passengers will put up with crowding in exchange for cheaper fares.

Buffett, whose Berkshire Hathaway Inc. is a major shareholder of United and other big U.S. airlines, said the recent spotlight on poor customer service in the airline industry doesn’t change his investment strategy.

According to FactSet, Berkshire Hathaway is UAL’s largest shareholder with a more than 9 percent stake.

Berkshire is also the top shareholder at Delta, No. 2 at Southwest and No. 3 at American.

The UAL stake is worth nearly $2.2 billion at the midday share price of $75.55.

The billionaire financier made the comments in an interview Monday morning with CNBC. Buffett said the bloody removal of a 69-year-old passenger from a United Express plane in Chicago was obviously “a terrible mistake.” He criticized United Continental Holdings Inc. CEO Oscar Munoz, who first gave a vague response, then defended his employees and blamed the passenger.

“I kind of wonder whether Oscar had actually seen that [video] when he made the response,” Buffett said. “If so, it was a bigger mistake by far.”

Berkshire Hathaway Chairman and CEO Warren Buffett watches Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates (left) play bridge May 1, 2016, outside the Borsheims jewelry store, a Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary, in Omaha, Neb. Buffett said United Airlines bungled the case of the passenger dragged off a plane in April 2017. Buffett said Monday that the recent spotlight on poor customer service in the airline industry doesn’t change his investment strategy.

Buffett said a CEO’s natural tendency is to first defend his employees, but that should not have been the case if Munoz had seen the video. United declined to say when Munoz first saw the video. The CEO has said his early response was insensitive.

United issued a statement saying it appreciated Buffett’s perspective and has announced policy changes to improve customer service.

Buffett said “it’s bad” when airline executives get hauled before Congress, as Munoz and others were last week, but said the strategy behind his airline investments remains unchanged.

The financier said air travel has become “unbelievably safe” and that full planes are making the airlines profitable – even if that causes “a fair amount of discomfort.”

“They may become like cattle cars,

but ... a significant percentage would rather be treated that way and fly for $X than have far more legroom, two abreast, all kinds of things, and travel for $X plus 25 percent,” he said.

High average occupancy has kept prices from rising, Buffett said. He also was skeptical about Congress imposing new regulations on the airlines, saying that would push fares higher.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT TUESDAY, MAY 9, 2017

Nicki Minaj is putting some fans on scholarship.

After a fan asked the hip-hop star whether she would pay his college tuition on Twitter on Saturday night, Minaj agreed to pay fans’ school costs – on the condition that they show her perfect marks. She wrote, “Show me straight A’s that I can verify w/ur school and I’ll pay it.” A few dozen fans took Minaj up on the offer, posting screenshots of their grades. Minaj replied individually to some throughout the night and agreed to pay other things such as book costs and student loans.

Minaj wrapped up the contest after a few hours, but she promised to do it again in a month or two.

Street artist Banksy’s take on Brexit seen in Dover

AP file photo

In this combination photo, former President Bill Clinton (left) appears April 12, 2012, at a political event at Upper Moreland High School in Willow Grove, Pa., and author James Patterson appears at a photo session Aug. 30 in New York.

Clinton and Patterson are collaborating on a thriller, “The President is Missing,” to come out June 2018.

Bill Clinton and James Patterson co-writing a thriller NEW YORK – Neither Bill Clinton nor James Patterson has ever tried something like this before.

The former president and the best-selling novelist are collaborating on a thriller, “The President is Missing,” to come out June 2018 as an unusual joint release from rival publishers – Alfred A. Knopf and Little, Brown and Co. In a statement Monday provided to The Associated Press, the publishers called the book “a unique amalgam of intrigue, suspense and behind-the-scenes global drama from the highest corridors of power. It will be informed by details that only a president can know.”

Knopf has long been Clinton’s publisher, and Patterson has been with Little, Brown for decades. “The President is Missing” is the first work of fiction by Clinton, whose best-known book is the million-selling “My Life.”

For Patterson, it’s the chance to team up with a friend who knows as well as anyone about life in the White House.

“Working with President Clinton has been the highlight of my career, and having access to his firsthand experience has uniquely informed the writing of this novel,” Patterson said in a statement. “I’m a storyteller, and President Clinton’s insight has allowed us to tell a really interesting one. It’s a rare combination – readers will be drawn to the suspense, of course, but they’ll also be given an inside look into what it’s like to be president.”

LONDON – The street artist Banksy has let the world know his take on Britain’s decision to leave the European Union.

Banksy has created a large mural in the British port of Dover showing a workman chipping away one of the 12 stars on the EU flag. His representatives Monday confirmed that the work is genuine.

British voters decided last year to leave the 28-nation EU. The new mural is in the city that’s the main British gateway for traffic to continental Europe. It also appeared as the U.K. is holding an early election.

Banksy’s satirical stencils – rats, kissing policemen, riot police with smiley faces – first appeared on walls in Bristol before spreading to London and then to cities around the world. His artworks have fetched as much as $1.8 million.

MTV Awards honor ‘Beauty,’ ‘Stranger Things’

LOS ANGELES – Film hit “Beauty and the Beast” and Netflix newcomer “Stranger Things” were the night’s big winners with two trophies apiece as MTV partied with its Movie & TV Awards show.

For this, the 26th edition of what was formerly known as the MTV Movie Awards, TV was added to the mix. “Stranger Things” was decreed the Show of the Year, and its cast member, Millie Bobby Brown, was named Best Actor in a Show.

“Beauty and the Beast” was the Movie of the Year, with its star, Emma Watson, the Best Actor in a Movie.

But the awards had another trick up its sleeve, introducing a policy of breaking down gender barriers, as men and women competed jointly in the acting categories.

The policy was put into practice at the top of the show by presenter Asia Kate Dillion, who proudly noted she has been able to break down gender barriers as “the first openly non-binary actor to play an openly non-binary actor on a major TV show,” Showtime’s drama series “Billions.” (A non-binary person is someone who doesn’t identify with either gender.) Then she presented the award to Watson.

Novel to ask: What if Hillary Clinton hadn’t married Bill?

NEW YORK – A best-selling novelist is imagining how Hillary Clinton’s life might have turned out had she never married Bill Clinton.

Random House announced Monday that Curtis Sittenfeld will tell the story from the point of view of Hillary Rodham. In real life, the former first lady did turn down Bill Clinton’s marriage proposals at first before agreeing to marry. In the novel, not yet titled, she turns down Clinton once and for all, then goes on with her life.

No release date was announced.

Sittenfeld wrote “American Wife,” whose main character was believed to have been loosely based on Laura Bush.

TECHNOLOGY

Microsoft heads to class

Company announces new devices, software targeted for use in education

By HAYLEY TSUKAYAMA The Washington Post

Microsoft just held a big launch in New York, but it didn’t show off flashy new software or a pricey new piece of hardware for the average consumer. Instead, it gathered media and analysts together to talk about going back to school.

The company announced a slew of products for the education market last week, including a school-focused version of Windows, new features for Office and a new type of laptop targeted at college students. All of its announcements aim to get more of its technology into the hands of more students – regardless of their abilities or economic status.

“Talent is everywhere. Opportunity is not,” said Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella, who opened the presentation with a personal story about how his great-grandfather’s education paved the way for his own success.

Competition in the education space has been ramping up in recent years, as Google’s inexpensive Chromebook laptops have shaken Apple’s long-standing association with education. Chromebooks made up 58 percent of K-12 mobile-device shipments late last year, according to estimates from the consulting firm Futuresource – a gain of 50 percent from the year before, while Microsoft made up 22 percent and Apple’s iOS and MacOS together captured 19 percent. Microsoft, after years of focusing on business customers, is refocusing some of its efforts on the lucrative education market as part of a broader strategy to attract creative users.

That clearly was the target market for the $999 Surface Laptop, which boasts an impressive 14.5 hours of battery life, as compared with the 10 to 12 hours from Apple’s MacBook line. Its touch screen also works with the Surface Pen stylus, and the laptop is compatible with the Surface Dial – features that Microsoft hopes will attract users who want to move beyond the keyboard and trackpad.

With its new Surface Laptop, Microsoft is taking steady aim at Apple and its popularity among college students. The laptop’s sleek design echoes the clean lines of the MacBook Air and MacBook, but the four extra hours of battery life could make it easier to finish an after-class library

Microsoft’s Surface Laptop is aimed at students. The Surface Laptop is the first Surface device without a detachable keyboard. study session without having to haul around a charger all day. The $999 laptop isn’t exactly a budget device, but it fits a critical audience that may not be able to afford Microsoft’s high-power $1500 Surface Book.

“This fills an important gap in their device offerings,” said Christopher Voce, an analyst at Forrester, who expects this new device will be critical to Microsoft’s Surface line in the future.

The company’s new Windows 10 S system looks like a direct competitor to Chrome OS, the operating system that powers Google’s low-cost Chromebooks. Users only will be able to install programs from the Windows store, including its Office Suite, that are similar to the stripped-down options that come on Google’s lightweight laptops. The system is due out before the new school year.

Microsoft also announced new Office features, including upgrades

to OneNote, Word and PowerPoint, to make all of them easier for people with learning or physical disabilities to use. For example, there’s an Office feature that will read text aloud at various speeds, and separate words into syllables, which can be particularly useful for those with dyslexia.

Those features make a world of difference to her students, said Lauren Pittman, a special-education teacher in Canton, Georgia, whose students were allowed to test the features before they officially were announced.

Her students are “so much more confident, that’s the biggest thing,” Pittman said, because the features let them learn at their own speed and spare them the embarrassment of having to have a staff member read their class materials with them.

Other features, such as built-in support for the screen readers the visually impaired use to read documents on a computer, also make it

much easier for teachers, students and parents to interact and communicate – offering the opportunities that Nadella said he wants the company to provide for all students.

From a business standpoint, locking up the lucrative education market – in which companies often sell hundreds or even thousands of devices at a time – is critical for any company that makes hardware, analysts said. It also has a sort of “hearts and minds” aspect to it, Voce said.

“You’re indoctrinating students into a way to engage with technology. The manner in which we use devices and apps is influenced by what we use in school,” he said. For Microsoft, which has refocused its message around “creators” and the liberal-arts set that traditionally has belonged to Apple, being able to boost student creativity and productivity is critical to appealing to a new generation.

And those who could drop phone service might pay more after losing package discounts. Martin Axel, a retired hospital administrator in Seal Beach, California, says dropping the landline would increase his cable bill by more than $40 a month.

The Associated Press

The patterns

Renters and younger adults are more likely to have just a cellphone, which researchers attribute to their mobility and comfort with newer technologies.

The in-person survey of 19,956 households was part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Health Interview Survey, which tracks landline use to assure representative samples in ongoing health studies. The survey has a margin of error of plus or minus 1 percentage point.

Cellphone-only home have other commonalities.

“Wireless-only adults are more likely to drink heavily, more likely to smoke and be uninsured,” even after factoring for age and income, said Stephen J. Blumberg, the study’s co-author (and a landline user himself). “There certainly is something about giving up a landline that appeals to the same people

Emergencies

who may engage in risky behavior.”

Why that’s so will require further research.

The survey doesn’t get into why people ditch or keep landlines, although landline users cited a number of reasons for hanging on in phone interviews and email exchanges with The Associated Press.

Traditional copper phone lines have their own power supply, so those landlines still work during blackouts. Internet-based phones through the cable or phone company aren’t true landlines, although the CDC counts them that way. The internet modem for these phones still needs power.

Both kinds of landline phones are more dependable for 911. Even if you can’t give dispatchers your home address, they often would have that already.

Cellphones primarily use GPS for location, which means the dispatcher might know which building you’re in, but not the specific apartment.

For that reason, Trey Forgety of the nonprofit National Emergency Number Association recommends landlines for those who live alone and have a disability or medical condition. He says cellphone location accuracy is improving, but there’s still work to be done.

No choice in the matter

A push-button landline telephone in Whitefield, Maine, is becoming a thing of the past. According to a U.S. government survey released May 4, homes and apartments with only cellphone service exceeded 50 percent for the first time.

Plenty of people would get rid of their landlines if they could. It goes beyond complaints about cellular reception at home.

Joe Krkoska, a supply chain director, needs a traditional copper wire for his home security system in Zionsville, Indiana. Getting rid of the line would require crews to drill holes in his home and put batteries in the bedroom. No thanks, he says.

Chris Houchens, who works in sales and marketing, says his phone company forces him to get a landline with internet service. There’s no cable TV alternative where he lives in rural Smiths Grove,

In many households, the landline is a honey trap for telemarketers.

“We never use the landline, and the only calls I get on it are from someone looking to sell me something,” said Matt Lawrence, a management consultant in O’Fallon, Missouri.

On the other hand, it’s comforting to have a device just for calls – without “all of the irritating bells and whistles of smartphones,” said Brad Cooney, a Navy veteran in Brandon, Mississippi. “I can shut the [cell] phone off and still have a landline if someone needs to call me.”

Take precautions when using cloud-based storage options Many consumers have turned to cloud-based accounts for file storage, photo sharing and more. The cloud can be a convenient way to share data, but few people realize the steps they can take to lock down their cloud accounts and keep their information private.

Strong, unique passwords always are your first line of defense. Remember to make them at least eight or more characters long, with a mix of several numbers and symbols. Never re-use passwords. If the site allows it, try two-factor authentication or twostep verification. These methods provide additional security by requiring a passcode as well as a password.

Some cloud sites allow you to log in using your username and password from popular sites such as Facebook.

But if that account is hacked, it can provide access to any other sites that use it, including your cloud storage.

TECH Triona Guidry You’re better off creating separate usernames and passwords for your cloud accounts.

Always keep a backup of any data you have stored in the cloud. It’s all too easy to lose online data to an equipment failure or a hacker. Cloud companies even have gone out of business, leaving surprised users in the lurch. The cloud should be considered temporary, not permanent, storage. It doesn’t matter if you use a hard drive, a flash drive, or even a CD or DVD, as long as your data is stored somewhere else in addition to the cloud. Don’t forget to test your backups, and keep updating them as needed.

Some apps keep their data entirely

in the cloud. If you’d like to back up this data, look for an export option in the app. Some apps save data in their own proprietary format, meaning you can only open the data with the app.

But others may allow you to export to a common file format such as text, Word or Excel. This allows you to open your data with any program that supports that kind of file, should the original app go offline or become unavailable.

Avoid using the “public” setting when sharing files. Instead, select the specific people with whom you would like to share. Most services allow you to create groups to make it easier to share with multiple people. When those people no longer need access, you should remove them from the list.

The same applies to data you no longer need to share. If it doesn’t need to be in the cloud, remove it. It’s a good idea to make a backup before

deleting anything from the cloud, even if you follow the suggestion of always keeping a copy of your data elsewhere. Better to have too many backups than not enough!

Keeping your computer’s antivirus up to date will help you avoid problems. Your mobile devices also should be kept up to date. Follow good security practices, such as not clicking links in email and instant messages.

Double-check the settings for your cloud accounts from time to time, to make sure they remain the way you want them.

These basic precautions will make the cloud a safer choice for storage and sharing.

NEW YORK – Deborah Braswell, a university administrator in Alabama, is a member of a dwindling group – people with a landline phone at home.

According to a U.S. government study released Thursday, 50.8 percent of homes and apartments had only cellphone service in the latter half of 2016, the first time such households attained a majority in the survey. Braswell and her family are part of the 45.9 percent that still have landline phones. The remaining households have no phone service at all.

More than 39 percent of U.S. households – including Braswell’s – have both landline and cellphone service. The landline comes in handy when someone misplaces one of the seven cellphones kicking around her three-story house in a Birmingham suburb. “You walk around your house calling yourself to find it,” she said.

It’s also useful when someone breaks or loses a cellphone and has to wait for a replacement.

26 Inflammation is part of healing process Dear Doctors: It seems as though we’re hearing more and more about inflammation and how it causes disease. What is inflammation and how does it work? And is it really possible what you eat makes a difference?

Dear Reader: You’ve asked some pretty big questions, so we’re going to answer them in two parts. In this column, we’ll explore inflammation itself. We’ll address whether what you eat can have an effect on inflammation (spoiler alert – yes) in our next column.

First of all, you’re correct that there’s been an increase in awareness about the concept of inflammation in the last few years. At its most basic, it’s the body’s localized response to injury or infection. When you catch a cold, scrape your knee or get a sunburn, inflammation is the cause of the swelling, heat, pain and redness that follow.

And while it sounds simple, the pathways and mechanisms of inflammation, as well as the many ways it can act upon the body, are really quite complex.

The human body is perpetually on guard for anything that may harm it. This includes physical injury to skin, bone, organs or tissues, or potentially dangerous invaders, such as bacteria, viruses, pathogens or other harmful stimuli. When damage is detected, the body’s immune system rallies.

Many different types of immune cells “wake up” and begin to release a variety of substances, each of which causes a rapid series of protective responses. This is part of a process known as acute inflammation.

Blood vessels expand so they can quickly send additional blood to the injured area.

They also will temporarily become more permeable, so as to flood the site of damage with specialized chemicals produced by white bloods cells, which are our first line of defense against infection. These responses are what cause the injured area to turn red, feel hot and become swollen.

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Elizabeth Ko and Eve Glazier Some of the substances released in the immune response also will cause surrounding nerves to send pain signals to the brain.

That causes your attention to be drawn to the site of the injury, which you will then shelter from further damage. For example, when you sprain your ankle, the pain and swelling automatically lead you to favor the injured side.

Without the inflammation response, our wounds and injuries would not heal.

However, things can go awry. Sometimes the immune system will issue an inflammation response against otherwise innocuous substances, like pollen, certain foods or pet dander. The result is allergies, which can range from annoying to life-threatening.

Even more challenging is chronic inflammation, an immune response that lasts for months or even years. It happens when the body targets its own cells and tissues, which can result in disease. For example, rheumatoid arthritis is caused when joints throughout the body are permanently inflamed.

Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease caused by inflammation. Inflammation of the bowel can cause conditions like Crohn’s disease, celiac disease and ulcerative colitis. And inflammation plays a role in cardiovascular disease, heart attack and some cancers.

In our next column, we’ll dive into the second half of your question – can food have an effect on inflammation?

Dear Abby: I DEAR ABBY have been in a two-year relationJeanne ship with a man Phillips who is loving and intelligent. We have talked about marriage since the beginning.

I have traditional values, while he doesn’t believe the institution of marriage is necessary.

This would be a second marriage for both of us. Our children are grown, so having kids doesn’t factor into this decision. He says he’s willing to marry me because he knows how important marriage is to me. I was raised in the church, and living together not only makes me uncomfortable, but is looked down upon by my family.

For a while he wanted to wait for a few of his financial issues to be worked out. They have been, but he doesn’t seem ready to move forward. Another issue is while we are compatible in most ways, we are polar opposites when it comes to politics and religion. It bothers me, but he says we don’t have to agree on everything. I feel that to have a happy relationship, a couple’s essential values and morals should be similar.

He never wants to discuss political issues, and it makes things difficult and awkward. I know he doesn’t feel the same as I do, but he doesn’t want to start an argument or discussion.

We never really fight, but I’d like to be able to talk about what is going on in the world.

I’m wondering if a relationship with so many differences can survive. He does make me happy, and we have a very passionate, loving relationship. – Opposites Attract In Washington Dear Opposites Attract: Opposites often attract, that’s true. And, depending upon the people involved, it can lead to successful marriages. However, couples in a solid relationship need to be able to communicate honestly with each other, and your gentleman friend appears not to be capable of doing it fully, which is not a good sign. If you plan on taking this relationship to the next level, I recommend the two of you have premarital counseling. Or, if he would prefer, consult a licensed marriage and family counselor.

Dear Abby: My daughter is 3. She has reached the point where she notices and comments upon others’ appearance. Generally, her comments are of the “that lady has a big bottom!” variety, spoken loudly and within earshot. We are working on the concepts of manners and tact, in addition to learning people come in all shapes, sizes, colors, etc. In the meantime, however, have you any suggestions for how to address the subjects of her comments? I’ve offered some version of “I’m sorry, we’re still working on our manners,” but it seems to imply I’m teaching her to make her hurtful comments in a quieter voice. – Embarrassed In Kentucky Dear Embarrassed: You are overthinking this. Children sometimes say the darndest things. The way you’re handling it is just fine.

I hardly think anyone will be wounded for life because of anything a 3-year-old utters.

(Everything looks “big” to a kid that age.)

7' x 12' Landscaping Trailer Title – Good Tires 815-479-0492 Picnic Table for Toddler

SERVICE LEAGUE of CRYSTAL LAKE RUMMAGE SALE

READER NOTICE:

Winston Churchill claimed that writing a book is an adventure in five stages: from a toy to an amusement to a mistress to a master and, finally, a tyrant.

Luckily a bridge column is too short to run that full gamut; however, when playing a deal, it starts as an amusement, but can turn nasty.

Sometimes, though, that downturn will be self-inflicted. Look at the South hand in today’s diagram. What would you bid after the given start to the auction?

This deal occurred online with computer programs playing in various positions at the 15 tables.

Almost every South overcalled one spade. Then West rebid one no-trump, and most Norths strangely refused to raise to two spades.

When East retreated to two diamonds, South weirdly doubled, North removed to two spades, and South passed. There were 10 scores of plus 200 for 11 tricks taken.

At some tables, North did raise to two spades, but then South passed.

West balanced with a takeout double, East pulled to three clubs, and South passed again. Weirder and weirder!

With such a skewed hand but strong trumps, jump straight to four spades. Ignore the vulnerability and hope to buy something useful in the dummy. It might even silence the opponents. Here, five clubs is down only one and five diamonds down two, both cheap saves.

At my table, West led the spade ace against four spades, and East sensibly discarded the diamond two.

West shifted to a low club. South ruffed, played a heart to the ace and returned a heart. West took the trick and now fell from grace by shifting to the diamond king. South won, ruffed a heart, drew trumps and claimed an overtrick.

PUBLIC NOTICE Notice of Proposed Change in Schedule of Rates to Customers of Aqua Illinois, Inc. within McHenry County May 1, 2017 Aqua Illinois, Inc. hereby gives notice to the public that it has filed with the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC) a proposed change in its rate schedules for water service in McHenry County.

AQUA ILLINOIS’ RATE REQUEST If this rate request is granted in full as filed, it would translate to: • An average monthly residential bill (4,500 gallons) would increase by $17.22, ($0.57 per day) to $72.29, including public fire protection charges.

• A full day’s worth of water (150 gallons) for $2.41 per day, approximately $.02 per gallon.

The estimated bill impact may vary based on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, meter size, usage volume, and fire protection charge.

The proposed increase in rates is set out in Tariff ILL. C.C. No. 49, Section 8 filed with the ICC. The last rate case impacting the rate zone in which McHenry County customer are included was filed on April 6, 2011. This request will undergo a review by the ICC for up to 11 months. The approximate date of the change(s), if approved by the ICC within the statutory 11-month process, is March 30, 2018. If approved by the ICC, the changes for all classes of water and wastewater service statewide would result in an increase to base rates of $11,999,981.

THE RATES YOU PAY DIRECTLY BENEFIT YOUR COMMUNITY Aqua Illinois will have invested approximately $2.8 million in infrastructure and other water quality improvements through the period covered in this proceeding. They have included distribution system upgrades to enhance water quality, representing an investment of approximately $2,100 per household. All system improvements will directly contribute to increased reliability and enhanced process improvements for source-of-supply and water treatment. Examples include: • Replacement of deteriorated and undersized water mains to improve water quality, reliability, and pressure and to upgrade fire protection service to these areas.

• Grid reinforcements in the water system to provide added system pressure, better fire flows throughout the populated parts of the system and eliminate bottlenecks that limit water flow.

• Replacement of fire hydrants to ensure resources are available to our firefighters in an emergency.

• Replacement of customer service lines from the water main to the property line to ensure reliability.

• Replacement and upgrade of water meters with new radio frequency devices to ensure efficient and accurate bills based on actual usage instead of those based on estimates.

• Improvements to the McHenry Shores water treatment facility to remove high iron concentrations.

• Field equipment necessary to provide service to maintain the water system and provide customer service to McHenry County homes and businesses.

ICC ROLE Please be advised that the ICC may alter or amend the rates or conditions of service after hearings held pursuant to 83 Ill. Adm. Code 200, and may increase or decrease individual rates in amounts other than those requested by the company.

HUNTLEY – A win against Hampshire on Monday not only would give the Huntley girls softball team a share of the Fox Valley Conference championship, it would also add a little bling to the players’ wardrobe. “(Red Raiders coach Mark Petryniec) said he would give us medals if we won, which was pretty cool and a pretty big motivator for us,” Huntley sophomore catcher Sofia Tenuta said.

Both Huntley and Hampshire started off 2-0 at the Marengo Tournament this weekend, but decided not to play each other in the championship with a big conference game upcoming.

Two days later, Huntley pounded out 11 hits and beat Hampshire, 11-1, in five innings and clinched a share of the FVC title with three conference games left on its schedule.

Huntley (22-5, 12-1 FVC), which won the FVC Valley championship for the first time last season, can win the outright title with a win in any of its three remaining games against McHenry, Crystal Lake South and Prairie Ridge.

“We challenge the girls to do something unique, and to leave their mark in Huntley history,” Petryniec said. “And this team definitely has its sights on winning the conference outright.”

“We had a nice quality weekend and had some nice swings against some great competition. It only prepares us to face another good team like this. Hampshire had the same success (at the Marengo Tournament). We knew we had a battle today, and the girls really responded.”

Tenuta finished 2 for 3 with a double and drove in a game-high four runs, pitcher Tiffany Giese reached base three times and scored three runs, and Caitlin Brown went 3 for 4 with a double, three runs scored and an RBI. Rylie Porretto ended the game in the bottom of fifth inning with a first-pitch home run to right field and finished 3 for 4 with a double, two RBIs and three runs scored. Autumn Kasal tallied two hits and an RBI, and Taylor Pacana also drove in a run.

“We’re the first team in Huntley history to win back-to-back conference (titles), so I think Huntley sports are just the best in the conference now,” said Brown, who had a steal of home in the first inning.

“We just have such a good team chemistry. I’ve been playing with some

Huntley intentionally walked Illinois commit Delaney Rummell to load the bases with two outs in the fourth.

This is my senior year, so it’s a good last year.”

Giese improved to 20-4 and allowed a run on five hits in five innings. She needed only 62 pitches in the complete game, walking one and striking out one.

Hampshire loaded the bases in the first and fourth innings, but came away

empty both times.

Giese got a flyout to end the first, and got a sharp groundout to Kasal at shortstop to end the fourth after Huntley intentionally walked Illinois commit Delaney Rummell to load the bases.

“We’re OK giving up a couple of hits.

We’re a bend, but don’t break defense,” Petryniec said. “It happened again today, and our girls our tested. We’re not afraid to have bases loaded with one out and try to get out of the situation.”

Huntley scored four runs on five hits in the third, and four runs on four hits in the fourth. The third inning started with five consecutive hits for the Raiders, including three on first pitches.

Hampshire’s Jasmine Lopez started and took the loss, allowing six runs (four earned) on six hits. She struck out two and walked two. Melissa Esparza finished 1 for 2 with an RBI, Rummell went 2 for 3 with a run scored, and Gwen Malecke, Sarah Bowen and Morgan Haefling each added a hit.

Hampshire (19-9, 9-4 FVC) now trails Huntley by a full three games. The WhipPurs entered Monday’s games as the only team other than the Raiders with a chance of winning the FVC title.

“Having bases loaded and opportunities and not pushing runs across obviously doesn’t help your cause,” Hampshire coach Kelly Wasilewski said. “And Huntley just hit the ball. Four or five hits in a row, and the momentum just builds and ours just goes down. It just wasn’t our day.”

battling and finally broke through. Everything was working pretty good, the fastball was good, the curveball was working good, and I was able to locate everything.

Wilson, who caught Krennrich, said the key was consistently getting ahead in counts.

“He pitched strikes,” Wilson said.

“He was working the zone with a lot of fastballs, but the off-speed was working well. He’s been on a tear lately. I think his best game was against (Crystal Lake) South (a 7-4 loss that Johnsburg led, 4-2, when Krennrich was lifted).

This was easily his second-best game.”

Rockets coach Kyle Nelson was impressed with the movement on Krennrich’s pitches.

“He commanded the outside of the plate, change the eye level a bit, go upstairs to downstairs,” Nelson said.

“He’s got a lot of run on his fastball. He threw a good game today.”

Burlington lost a pair of games to Richmond-Burton last week and is in second place in the KRC for the first time.

Raines saves day for Red Raiders

By TIM FROEHLIG

sports@nwherald.com McHENRY – Before Monday’s Fox Valley Conference baseball game against McHenry, Huntley senior sidearm-throwing right-hander Cole Raines had been used as a reliever before, but never as the team’s closer.

That all changed when he was thrown into a pressure-packed situation in the bottom of the seventh inning when the Warriors put runners on first and second with no outs, and the Red Raiders leading by a run.

Raines struck out the first batter he faced, then walked the next one to load the bases. That prompted a mound visit from Huntley coach Andy Jakubowski, who had a player warming in the bullpen.

“Coach told me he had confidence in me, and that we were gonna try to get a ground ball for me to force a double play, and end the game,” Raines said.

“He also went over strategies and situations with me, such as a possible squeeze play, just to make sure we were prepared.”

Instead of inducing the grounder he

wanted, Raines got McHenry’s No. 9 hitter, Jared Wojcik, to pop out to second base for the second out, then caught Owen Patzin looking for a strikeout to seal Huntley’s 1-0 shutout victory.

The win keeps the Raiders (23-4 overall, 15-2 FVC) one game behind Crystal Lake South in the FVC standings.

Raines’ save also made a winner out of junior starting pitcher Nick Laxner (2-1), who had been out with an arm injury since the second week of April. He scattered four hits over four innings, struck out three and didn’t issue a walk.

“Nick did a great job,”Jakubowski said. “Especially after being on the shelf for so long with an injury. We shut him down for a while, but kept him on a pitch count today. He moved the ball in and out effectively, changed his speeds, pitched to contact, and let the defense do their thing behind him.”

Laxner also handed McHenry righty Bobby Miller, a Louisville University commit who struck out 10 in his five innings, his first loss. Huntley’s Joe Boland hit an opposite-field single to right field in the top of the fifth for the game’s lone run.

“It definitely gives my confidence a

boost knowing I was able to come out and beat one of the best pitchers in the area,” Laxner said. “Because he pitched one heck of a game as well. That kid’s going to Louisville for a reason.”

Only two of the 21 outs Huntley’s pitching staff recorded came on fly balls that made it out of the infield, which was a testament to how well Laxner, Logan DeWulf and Raines kept the ball down.

The Red Raiders also got a pair of diving defensive gems from third baseman Jeff Heinrich, including a spectacular snag in the bottom of the fifth for a double play, ending a bases-loaded, one-out McHenry threat.

“We just couldn’t get that one big hit when we needed it,” McHenry coach Brian Rockweiler said. “Twice we had bases loaded with less than two outs and couldn’t plate a run. We hit into two double plays in the game. We didn’t get a bunt down when we needed to at one point. It’s those little things and seemingly minor situations that come back to haunt you when you can’t execute them properly.”

Reliever Dylan Honkala worked two scoreless innings out of the bullpen to keep McHenry (16-8, 11-6) in the game.

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE q UNSUNG HERO Casey Wilson

Johnsburg, sr., C

Wilson reached base three times, twice on bunts and once on an infield hit. He reached on an error on a sacrifice bunt attempt that loaded the bases in the Skyhawks’ four-run sixth inning. He also threw out a runner stealing third base to end Burlington Central’s fourth inning.

JOHNSBURG – Johnsburg lefthander Chris Krennrich pitched masterfully through six innings, allowing only one hit that reached an outfielder, striking out six Burlington Central batters, and yet facing the possibility of not getting a win.

Twice, the Skyhawks had loaded the bases against Rockets starter David Lauber. And twice, Lauber thwarted their attempts to score.

“We realized we were running out of time,” Johnsburg left fielder Ryan Kordik said. “The first times we got the bases loaded, there was one out. This time there were zero outs, so that gave us more confidence and more opportunities to just swing away.”

The Skyhawks strung together some well-placed hits, a solid sacrifice bunt and capitalized on two Burlington errors for four runs. Kordik then threw an 11-pitch perfect seventh inning for a 4-1 win for Krennrich on Monday at Tigers Field and a one-game lead for Johnsburg in the Kishwaukee River

Conference.

The Skyhawks (14-11 overall, 11-2 KRC) have won 10 of their past 12 games, and Krennrich improved to 6-1. Burlington (20-6, 10-3) has suffered its three conference losses in the past week.

“Stay positive, keep the confidence high and, at some point, something’s going to find its way through and score a couple runs,” Johnsburg coach Sam Lesniak said. “We were hoping it was only a matter of time.”

Kordik led off the sixth with a single down the line past third base, then Dillon Pokuta singled. Casey Wilson laid down a sacrifice bunt, and Lauber’s throw was in the dirt, allowing Wilson to reach safely.

Shane Graef, who was running for Kordik, scored on a wild pitch, then Nico LoDolce singled past the drawnin infield with one out. Another error led to a run, and then Noah Alanis and LoDolce pulled off a double steal, with LoDolce just beating the throw home to cap the rally.

“It felt good. It was definitely a relief,” Krennrich said. “It was a tough game all the way through, and we kept

4 PREP SOFTBALL: DUNDEE-CROWN 6, McHENRY 4

Chargers overcome 1st-inning hiccup

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com CARPENTERSVILLE – DundeeCrown pitcher Sydney Ruggles surrendered four consecutive hits to start Monday’s game against McHenry, allowing the Warriors to take a two-run lead.

“When they put two on the board, you don’t know how your team is going to come out,” D-C coach Tracy Beatty said.

The Chargers scored three runs in the bottom half of the inning and never trailed again on their way to a 6-4 Fox Valley Conference victory.

“When we got in the batters box, we were aggressive and we put the ball in play,” Beatty said. “We battled back right away. I knew we were going to play some ball today and we were going to give them one heck of a game.”

Ruggles hit an RBI single herself, hitting out of the No. 5 spot, and finished the day 3 for 4 with a triple and two RBIs. In the circle, she allowed 11 hits and four runs, three earned,

Now in her 10th season as Chargers head coach, Beatty said it was the first win over McHenry in her tenure. in the victory. She struck out 11 and walked four.

“I was a little off in the beginning, but I kind of worked my way back,” Ruggles said. “I was just getting used to the umpire’s strike zone and they were hitting, I’ll give them that. I was struggling a little bit.”

Beatty thought her starting pitch-

er might have been a little bit tired after a long week last week, but she threw a complete game.

McHenry (12-13, 7-6 FVC) scored two runs in the first on an RBI single from Tori Boysen and a sacrifice fly from Sam Hanley.

D-C (16-11, 7-7) had a balanced day at the plate, with four different hitters driving in runs. After Ruggles drove in one in the first, Megan Emerson singled home another run and Kayla Sjodin drove in one on a sacrifice fly.

In the third, Sjodin drove in another on an RBI single and Cassidy Randl knocked in one on a single, putting the Chargers ahead, 5-2. They added one more in the third after Deanna Origer led off with a double and Ruggles knocked her in on a triple.

Origer’s double was a shallow popup in right field that just missed the outstretched glove of McHenry right fielder Maddy Sullivan. The ball rolled past Sullivan, and Origer just beat the throw into second.

“Right when I noticed it tipped off the glove, I knew I would have a shot to go to two, so I took it,” Origer said.

“I was seeing the ball really well, I felt like I could see the laces. I felt good going up to the plate.”

Origer finished the game 3 for 4 with two runs scored.

McHenry rebounded with two runs in the sixth to cut it to 6-4. Two Warriors reached base in the seventh to bring the go-ahead run to the plate.

Ruggles retired three straight hitters to end the game and strand the runners.

“That got a little too close for my liking,” Beatty said. “We ended up closing the door when we needed to, so I’m excited about that.”

McHenry coach John DiFrancesca was not happy with his team’s effort early in the game.

“The last three or four innings were as solid as can be,” DiFrancesca said. “We keep telling the girls they’ve got to play seven innings, and they’re not. They’re playing three, they’re playing four.”

Warriors left fielder Taelor Schmitz went 3 for 4 with a run scored. Boysen went 2 for 4 with an RBI.

CUBS

VIEWS Rick Morrissey to business and that luxuriating in a bubble bath of 2016 memories isn’t going to accomplish much.

It’s always risky to rely on championship muscle memory. What happened one season doesn’t always carry over to the next. That’s why all the talk of a Cubs dynasty is just talk until it happens – until the Cubs go out and make it happen.

The 1984 Tigers were supposed to be the beginning of a dynasty, then they weren’t, finishing 84-77 the next season.

The 1985 Bears were supposed to be the beginning of a dynasty until they collapsed under the weight of injuries and endorsement opportunities.

The Cubs don’t need a wake-up call. They’re big boys. As a group, they don’t strike me as a bunch of guys reveling in their celebrity. But they’re certainly not playing up to the standards they set last season.

The pitching, which hardly experienced a glitch last season, has been shaky. The starters’ well-documented

difficulties in the first inning continued Sunday, with Jon Lester giving up a run at the start of the game. Kyle Hendricks (3.51 ERA), Jake Arrieta (4.63) and John Lackey (5.14) have looked mortal.

I don’t sense that many people are panicking about the Cubs’ 16-15 start.

But if you are, it’s worth remembering that they did go through a long stretch last season when they didn’t look like championship material. They went 16-12 in June and 12-14 in July – and ended up winning 103 games.

That might soothe the savage beast, but it doesn’t change what’s going on early this season. The Cubs were striking out a lot even before they whiffed a jaw-dropping 26 times Sunday. They’ve struck out the sixth-most times (283) in the majors. Strikeouts aren’t supposed to matter as much anymore, but when you don’t put the bat on the ball that many times, it deprives the ball of the opportunity to bounce in funny ways.

Maddon must have been cranky by the time the game ended at 1:15 a.m.

Monday. He actually criticized something about the Cubs. ‘‘I know they’re good, [the Yankees’] pitchers, but we have to do better than that at the plate,’’ he said.

It will be interesting to see how

Maddon proceeds if the early-season trend becomes entrenched. Will he continue to be Joe Cool, saying everything is fine, his right hand calmly on the tiller? Or will he decide this team needs some pointed advice? My guess is that he won’t change, that even if the ship is going down, he’ll say, ‘‘What a lovely day for a swim!’’

But that’s painting a dark picture, and it’s too early for that. The guys who aren’t hitting as well as they’re capable of – Kyle Schwarber, Addison Russell, Ben Zobrist and Anthony Rizzo – eventually will. Right?

Nobody wants to be the guy preaching doom and gloom about a championship team playing .500 ball a little more than a month into the season. It’s true that seasons can be lost in April and May, but it’s not as though anyone is running away with the National League Central right now.

We very well might see the Cubs and Yankees in the World Series in October. But one of those teams is going to have to pick up its game if it wants to get there.

Can you guess which one?

• Tuesday, May 9, 2017

The Cubs were featured Sunday on ‘‘60 Minutes.’’ Sixty minutes – how quaint, how fleeting.

By the time the Cubs and Yankees had finished playing an 18-inning game that night, 365 minutes had elapsed. That would be a lot of Lesley Stahl. It was way too much baseball and way, way, way too many strikeouts.

The CBS show ran its ode to the 2016 World Series champions, giving deserving nods to President Theo Epstein, manager Joe Maddon and the boys. That season seemed like a long time ago. Then again, so did Saturday by the time the game Sunday was over.

And maybe that’s the lesson – the very long lesson – of the 5-4 loss. The 2016 season is finally, officially history. The Yankees’ three-game sweep at Wrigley Field is a reminder that this season isn’t going to be one of those high-end boat cruises along the Danube. There are good teams out there, and they don’t care that the Cubs are the defending champions. Or if they do care, it’s only because the Cubs are in the way of what they want.

It’s time to stop celebrating. Wait, what? The Cubs hadn’t won a World Series in 108 years, and now you’re telling us to forget about it? No, I’m telling you that it’s time to get down

6 WHITE SOX ANALYSIS

Expect better things from Quintana

By JOHN GROCHOWSKi The Chicago Sun-Times

Short-term results have to be pretty far out of line with expectations to move the needle much in long-term projections.

That the White Sox are 15-15 and have been in and out of first place in the American League Central has made for an interesting month-plus, but they’re still a rebuilding team.

Fangraphs.com projections point toward a 56-76 remainder of the season.

The same goes for individual players. Without a major breakthrough or disastrous collapse, projections will suggest a player’s most likely results from this point forward will be close to his norm.

Take starting pitcher Jose Quintana, who has struggled to a 2-5 record with a 4.46 ERA and 4.01 fielding independent pitching. For his career, Quintana has a 3.45 ERA and 3.49 FIP. In projecting the rest of his season, his career levels, and especially his most recent three seasons, are given more weight than a weak start.

Opposition is a factor, and so is the 28-year-old Quintana’s place on the aging curve.

FIP is a better predictor of future ERA than ERA is itself, and Quintana has shown some erosion in FIP.

ball-reference.com. Fangraphs bases pitching WAR on FIP, while runs allowed is the base of bWAR. When Quintana’s FIPs were better than his ERAs in 2014 and ’15, his fWARs were better than the 3.2 and 4.1 at baseball-reference. With a weaker FIP but strong ERA last year, Quintana had a 5.4 bWAR that exceeded his fWAR. This year, with a high ERA, Quintana is on the negative side with a -0.3 bWAR. Which is more useful depends on what you want out of the stat, with bWAR regarded as more reflective of what has happened – how good was the pitcher at keeping runs off the board? – and fWAR, in filtering out defense more predictive of how good a pitcher will be in next seasons.

Fangraphs’ predictive approach allows it to update projections day by AP photo day during the season.

The numbers are not hard and White Sox starting pitcher Jose Quintana pauses on the mound during the first inning fast predictions. They’re closer to the Sunday against the Baltimore Orioles in Baltimore. most likely end points in a range of From 2014 to 2016, FIPs were 2.81, above replacement, Quintana is at probabilities, guided in part by how 3.18 and 3.56 even while ERAs were 0.7 this season.

MLB NOTES

Pitcher Taillon has suspected testicular cancer The ASSOCIATED PRESS

PITTSBURGH – Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Jameson Taillon underwent surgery Monday morning for suspected testicular cancer.

The right-hander had the surgery at Allegheny General Hospital.

After alerting the team’s medical staff of an abnormality, Taillon, 26, consulted with Dr. John C. Lyne during the weekend. Lyne performed the surgery.

The recommended treatment plan for Taillon is pending further testing.

Taillon remains on the 10-day disabled list.

“Today I lost a piece of my ‘manhood,’ ” Taillon said in a statement posted to his Twitter account. “But today I’m feeling like more of a man than I ever have. My journey hasn’t been the smoothest. But it is my journey and

I wouldn’t change it for anything.”

The surgery is the latest setback for Taillon, a first-round pick by the Pirates who underwent Tommy John surgery in 2014 and had surgery to address a sports hernia in 2015. He reached the majors in 2016 and is 2-1 with a 3.31 ERA in six starts this season.

“Jameson has again proven to us what a strong person he is by the way in which he has reacted to this development. We are appreciative of Dr. Lyne and the staff at Allegheny General Hospital for their invaluable expertise and efforts in caring for Jameson,” Pirates general manager Neal Huntington said. “We have told Jameson that our only priority is his health and well-being. His teammates, our coaches, baseball staff and entire organization will support him in his recovery in every possible way, and we will keep him in

our thoughts and prayers.”

Braves release former MVP Ryan Howard from minor league deal

ATLANTA – Ryan Howard doesn’t want to retire from baseball.

He may not have a choice.

The former National League MVP was released from his minor league contract Monday by the Atlanta Braves after he struggled at Triple-A Gwinnett, a major blow to the 37-yearold slugger’s hopes of carrying on with another team after a long career with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Less than a week after Howard insisted “there’s more in the tank,” the Braves decided otherwise. He lasted only 11 games with the G-Braves, hitting .184 with one homer and five RBIs. The Braves were hoping Howard could bolster an anemic bench and serve as designated hitter in inter-

league games. But his options were limited, since he could only play first base and Atlanta already has Freddie Freeman.

Going a different direction, the Braves completed a deal with Minnesota for utility player Danny Santana.

The Twins received left-handed reliever Kevin Chapman and cash.

Howard was once among baseball’s most feared hitters. In 2006, his first full season as Philadelphia’s starting first baseman, he put together one of the greatest stat lines in baseball history: 58 homers, 149 RBIs, a .313 average and an MVP award.

The Phillies would go on to win five straight NL East titles, a stretch that included two trips to the World Series and a championship in 2008. Howard averaged 41 homers and 129 RBIs during that run, finishing in the top 10 of the MVP voting every season.
