Good morning, McHenry County ... daily Internet people are people, too The TWEET

One thing we all know about strangers is that we don’t know anything about them. How many times have you turned out to be wrong after that first impression that you couldn’t help but form?

The current Northwest Herald commenting is fairly well-established now, and I think it’s an improvement over our old platform that made it too easy for people to hide their identities and feel more freedom to attack others under the cloak of a phony screen name.

Sure, that’s still possible to do with Facebook, but it’s less likely. It takes a special kind of someone to create a fake Facebook account for the sole purpose of tormenting people on the internet. But Al Gore never did promise us a rose garden.

I’m still taken aback sometimes by what people are willing to say online on a public forum, but that’s an individual decision, and we’d rather allow opinions than stifle them.

But there is something I hope that people keep in mind – these stories we write are about real people. They aren’t just internet fodder for people who are bored at work. Same goes for commenters – actual people, and often people who live pretty close to you.

There’s nothing wrong with a respectful disagreement or discussion. In fact, we encourage that kind of dialogue. Different perspec-

tives on issues make us all smarter. Belittling people, mocking them, making assumptions or attacking them does the opposite.

We do subject ourselves to jabs whenever we state an opinion anywhere on the internet, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t try to be civil and respectful. Short of that, just try not saying anything that you’d be afraid of getting socked in the mush for if you said it to someone’s face.

Here are just a few pastimes that are more valuable than fighting with strangers on the internet – getting a car wash during a thunderstorm, shouting at your TV during the Cubs game, watching an Adam Sandler movie marathon or counting dandelions in your neighbor’s lawn.

Here’s wishing you all a more Zen-like commenting experience.

ROCK NATION? DWAYNE JOHNSON CONSIDERING RUN FOR WHITE HOUSE

LOS ANGELES – After conquering Hollywood, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson may have his sights set on the White House.

The actor and former pro wrestler told GQ that a presidential run is “a real possibility.”

Johnson said if he were president, leadership would be a top priority.

Johnson isn’t revealing much about his political leanings.

But said he’s not in favor of President Donald Trump’s proposed travel ban because he believes “in inclusion.”

Johnson declined to endorse anyone in the presidential race last year even though he said both campaigns approached him. Johnson explained that he didn’t want to sway anyone’s opinion or make people unhappy with his politics.

“The White House keeps declaring there’s no evidence of collusion between Russia and Trump campaign. Intel officials have not said that.”

Gun store owners weigh in on renewed effort for state regulations

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com Springfield lawmakers are making another attempt to pass a law imposing a state level of regulation on gun stores similar to the stringent federal regulations they must follow.

Local gun store owners said the proposal hasn’t gotten better with age, and that state lawmakers are trying to shut them down and raise revenue for a broke state under the guise of improving public safety.

“There is no aspect of this bill that will increase public safety in any way, shape or form,” said Bert Irslinger Jr., who co-owns Second Amendment Sports in McHenry with his father.

Senate Bill 1657, which passed the Illinois Senate and now is in the House, seeks to add a level of state oversight and licensing on top of existing federal and state rules that govern firearm sales. The bill seeks to create a state licensing system for both gun stores and their employees – who already must possess a federal firearms license – as well as to make it harder for new stores to open.

To both Irslinger and Bo Strom, CEO of On Target Range & Tactical Center in Crystal Lake, the state rules are nothing more than a feel-good hassle that will increase costs for law-abiding firearm owners. “[The bill is] a duplication of things that already exist at the federal level,” Strom said.

The current bill was filed by Sen. Don Harmon, D-Oak Park, and passed by only one vote, 30-21 – all three of McHenry County’s senators opposed it. The previous version last year failed in the House.

“This was a difficult and a controversial bill, I know,” Harmon said in a news release. “I appreciate the support of every senator who was able to put children and families ahead of the [National Rifle Association].”

But local gun store owners said the bill is not only arbitrary and expensive, but also will do nothing to protect anyone because it exempts a number of large firearm retailers.

Besides state licenses for both the stores and each employee, the bill requires continuing education and mandates that stores contain video surveillance and alarm systems, the

Opening a gun store would require not only years of past experience selling guns, but also a letter from the county sheriff vouching for the requester’s character.

Implementing and enforcing the law would be overseen by a new five-member state panel, made up of a sheriff, an FFL holder, a lawyer, a representative of a gun-control group and a member of the Illinois State Police. The bill states that each member must have a “reasonable” knowledge of state and federal gun laws.

But while the proposed law applies to anyone who sells as few as 10 guns a year, its authors carved out an exemption for big-box stores, even though they account for a significant percentage of gun sales. A store is exempt if gun sales account for less than 20 percent of its revenue.

Prairiewood Elementary students attend Springfield tech conference

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Prairiewood Elementary School students had a chance to show off their research in Springfield this week.

Students in Jennifer Bigler’s fifthgrade dual language class went to the state Capitol this week as part of the TECH 2017 Students for the Information Age conference. The students presented a project about Genius Hour, a student-directed learning enrichment program that allows kids to research subjects they are interested in using technology in the classroom.

Prairiewood Elementary joined nearly 100 other schools in Springfield for the conference, which takes place annually. The objective of the event is to show state officials how students are using technology in schools to enhance learning and better prepare for the future.

“It helps show how technology is used across the curriculum in schools and how important it is, especially when it comes to funding technology initiatives,” Bigler said. “… Our students are learning skills they need in today’s working world.”

Genius Hour gives students an hour a week to explore a topic of their choice through self-directed research. Stu-

Some students have created websites, videos and so on.

“The philosophy of the classroom is, ‘You don’t know until you try,’ ” Bigler said. “Genius Hour gives them the op-

portunity to explore different websites and different apps and share it with other people. … I think it’s beneficial for everyone to learn what they are passionate about.”

Protesters hold die-in over health care vote at Rep. Hultgren’s office

By BRENDA SCHORY

Log on to www.NWHerald.com and vote on today’s poll question:

Should a special prosecutor be appointed to investigate possible Russian ties to the Trump campaign/administration?

bschory@shawmedia.com CAMPTON HILLS – The Campton Hills district office of U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Plano, again was the center of protest Tuesday, but organizers called it a die-in, lying on the grass with cardboard tombstones and plastic skeletons to show their disdain for the American Health Care Act. Hultgren was among the seven Illinois House Republicans who voted May 4 to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. The measure still needs to go to the Senate.

“Maintaining the status quo under a failing law is simply unacceptable,” Hultgren said in a statement after the vote. “I have had great concerns about this bill, and expressed those to Speaker [Paul] Ryan and [the] House leadership. But doing nothing isn’t an option, which is why I supported this amended bill as an important next step in the longer process of broader health reform that will benefit Illinois.”

In his statement, Hultgren said he would “ensure people with pre-existing conditions are protected.”

“Under the American Health Care Act, insurance companies can never deny someone coverage based on pre-existing conditions,” Hultgren said.

But not all of the protesters believed it.

Tara Turner of Batavia lay on a yoga mat next to a gruesome tableau of two headstones flanking a black rose and a skeleton. She was among about 50 people who turned out.

“I repurposed my Halloween decor,” Turner said. “We’ve written.

We’ve called. We’ve tried to visit. But I guess a faked death on the front lawn of his office is the next logical step.”

Tamara and Mark Foehring of Geneva both had different tombstone messages.

Hers read, “RIP Medicaid patients including those in nursing homes.”

His read, “Rubber stamp Randy – Your constituents are dying to talk to you about your AHCA vote.”

“The Republican health care bill is immoral,” Tamara Foehring said. “It’s wrong. I think health care is a right, not a privilege. And I do really think people are going to die.”

Mark Foehring said he could not believe the U.S. doesn’t have a better health care system.

“We have great care, but our health insurance industry is this layer of profitability that is just ridiculous for us to be paying for,” he said.

Northwest Herald Web Poll Question

Wednesday’s results as of 10 p.m.:

What’s your go-to meal at a supper club?

Sandy Bressner – sbressner@shawmedia.com

Bill Koehl of Geneva lays on the ground as part of a die-in Tuesday in Campton Hills to protest Rep. Randy Hultgren’s vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act and replace it with the American Health Care Act. Jean Nash lay on a plaid blanket holding up a cardboard tombstone that declared it was the AHCA family plot.

It listed family members’ pre-existing conditions: hypertension, osteoarthritis, muscular dystrophy, congenital heart defect and congestive heart failure.

“I am concerned about the future of our health care,” said Nash, of Plainfield. “I have … two adult sons who have muscular dystrophy. … [They] are physically disabled [from muscular dystrophy], and I am their caregiver.”

Beth Guerrero’s tombstone simply said, “I need my health care, not excuses.”

“This really concerns me that they’re going to cut health care for poor people, for children, for people with pre-existing conditions, just so they can give a tax cut to … the rich,” said Guerrero, of Naperville. “To me, that’s immoral.”

Jerry Becker’s tombstone sign read, “Here lies affordable health care.”

“Rep. Hultgren didn’t like the first version of the health bill that didn’t pass,” said Becker, of Aurora. “And this one is worse by 100 times, and he votes for it. It’s just absolutely ridiculous. I’m old. I’m going to pay more.

I have pre-existing conditions. … We are not going away, and he has to start listening to us.”

Winelle Glaser, formerly of Campton Hills, was not lying down for the die-in – she was still protesting.

“I’m here specifically to ensure that Randy Hultgren is not re-elected,” Glaser said. “He is a representative of the Republican Party, not the constituents.

He needs to go.”

Robin Stephens of North Aurora also chose not to lay down, but held up a big sign that declared, “If Trumpcare kills me, mail my ashes to the GOP.” “I just need to protest what happened,” Stephens said of the vote. “It

was so utterly unexpected after the first defeat, that first bill they tried to pass, and Trump pulled it. This is beyond the pale. This version of this bill is worse than the first version. I think, honestly, it’s just a political ploy to make Trump look good.”

“Indivisible is getting overly dramatic,” Hultgren said in a statement regarding the die-in.

Indivisible is an organized resistance to President Donald Trump’s agenda.

“Let’s be clear: State Innovation Waivers were first put into law under the Affordable Care Act,” Hultgren said. “These waivers offer states the ability to implement innovative approaches to offer access to health care that is at least as affordable and comprehensive as would be provided without the waiver. ... Pre-existing conditions will be covered under the AHCA – a waiver state cannot opt to waive guaranteed issue. And like the ACA, proposed insurance will be offered at more affordable rates if you maintain continuous coverage under the AHCA.” Hultgren spokesman Jameson Cunningham clarified what “guaranteed issue” means, stating in an email that it is “a term used in health insurance to describe a situation where a policy is offered to any eligible applicant without regard to health status. Thus, they can’t deny you coverage based on a pre-existing condition [or] health status.”

Hultgren also said in his statement that he was not aware of any discussion that Illinois lawmakers would apply for such a waiver.

“However, states know best how to address the needs of their citizens,” Hultgren said. “If the state of Indiana wants to apply for a waiver, the state of Illinois or any other states should not get in their way.”

LOCAL BRIEFS Grant Street in Crystal Lake to be closed at railroad crossing

That stabbing Heel Pain might be PLANTAR FASCIITIS

Learn how to Naturally Heal Plantar Fasciitis or Foot Pain Avoid the use of Braces, Medications, Injections or Surgery

Does your heel or bottom of your foot hurt with…?

• The first few steps out of bed in the morning? Worse as the day progresses?

• Walking after prolonged sitting?

• Climbing stairs or standing on your toes?

• Standing for long periods?

• Standing on hard surfaces?

If any of these are true it is likely you have Plantar Fasciitis or Heel Pain. Heel and foot pain is no joke. It can be debilitating…

• You begin to dread those first steps getting out of bed every morning…not a great way to start your day.

• You get embarrassed with the way you walk after sitting for a while…you get curious glances from people.

• You get frustrated…disappointed, sometimes even angry for not being able to do the things you love to do…like shopping, leisure walking, or just simply keeping up with your kids or grandkids.

The plantar fascia is the flat ligament that connects your heel bone to your toes. It supports the arch of your foot. If you strain your plantar fascia, it gets weak, swollen, and irritated (inflamed). Then your heel or the bottom of your foot hurts when you stand or walk.

Repeated strain can cause tiny tears in the ligament. These can lead to pain and swelling.

Anyone can be susceptible to plantar fasciitis but it is more common in people who…

• Have feet which roll in too much when walking.

• Have high arches or flat feet.

• Walk, stand, or run for long periods of time, especially on hard surfaces.

• Are overweight.

• Wear shoes that don’t fit well or are worn out.

This condition can take months to heal. You could be forced to wear one of those big heavy boots, take medications, painful cortisone injections or worse-case scenario surgery.

Can Plantar Fasciitis heal and your pain subside without Braces, Medications, Injections, or Surgery?

In most cases, yes…but it depends on but not limited to:

• Length of time you’ve been suffering.

• Things you’re doing that is making the condition worse without you knowing it.

• Degree of swelling and tightness of the plantar fascia.

Charlie Baker, 11, said he liked the Genius Hour projects because it allowed time to look at an issue more closely.

“If you have a certain question you are focused on, you can get deeper into the subject,” he said. “You start looking, and then this question leads me to this question.”

Students explored alternative options for homeless populations, tracked their family ancestries, created websites and even learned a new language through their Genius Hour

Continued from page A3 Irslinger said the provision makes no sense. He said smaller, privately owned, mom-and-pop stores have better-trained, professional employees who are much more likely to catch someone trying to illegally buy guns for people who legally can’t have them – or “straw purchasers,” in legal parlance.

“Are you telling me that because [big-box stores] sell other products that they don’t need as much training? As much regulating?” Irslinger said.

He also questioned how the state police and other cash-strapped agencies can afford to enforce the raft of new proposed legislation, which he said backs up his belief that the intent of the legislation is to be intentionally onerous. Although a fiscal note has not yet been attached to the current bill, state budget officials pegged the annual enforcement cost of last year’s unsuccessful effort at more than $2.1 million.

Strom said he hopes that the bill will fail in the House as it did last year. If not, he said he is confident that Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner,

A big part of Genius Hour is the ability to share one’s work, Bigler said. One student used a video recording app to teach monolingual second-graders Spanish. Another created a website about his research on how to solve a Rubik’s cube that was shared districtwide.

The students said they most liked the freedom to learn what they wanted.

“You get a break from normal learning and get to learn what you want,” said Madeline Manke, 11. “It’s kind of like free time but you’re actually learning something. It’s like school, but not school. It’s hard to explain.”

There is a deep ideological divide among Springfield lawmakers, mostly based on geography, over gun rights. Chicago and North Shore lawmakers favor stringent gun control, downstate lawmakers from both parties strongly favor gun rights, and suburban lawmakers are a mixed bag. Legislation that tilts too strongly one way or the other usually does not have the votes to pass.

Even if the bill fails, it caused divisions in the state’s gun rights community.

Aside from big-box stores, the bill’s authors likewise carved out an exemption for firearm manufacturers located in Illinois, which prompted the Illinois Firearm Manufacturers Association to switch its position on the bill from opposition to neutral.

In the wake of outcry from gun owners, Illinois-based manufacturers Springfield Armory and Rock River Arms, which help fund the associaSarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com tion, severed ties with it last week.

‘Kill Bill’ and ‘Twin Peaks’ actor Michael Parks, 77, dies

By JAKE COYLE

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Michael Parks, a prolific character actor who found early fame in 1960s countercultural roles and later became a favorite of directors including Quentin Tarantino and Kevin Smith, has died. He was 77.

He died Tuesday in Los Angeles, his agent, Jane Schulman, said on Wednesday. No cause of death was announced.

In a career that spanned six decades, Parks acted in more than 100 films and TV shows. Many of his early starring roles were in anti-establishment ’60s-era films such as “Wild Seed,” “The Happening” with Anthony Quinn, and “Bus Riley’s Back in Town” alongside Ann-Margret.

Parks also starred as a disillusioned, motorcycle-riding newsman in the 1969 series “Then Came Bronson.”

For the series, Parks, who recorded a number of albums throughout his career, sang the popular closing theme song, “Long Lonesome Highway.”

He played the Canadian drug runner Jean Renault on David Lynch’s “Twin Peaks.”

Parks found perhaps his most famous parts in the 1990s thanks to the interest of Tarantino, Smith and Robert Rodriguez, the often connected independent filmmakers. Each turned to Parks again and again for meaty

supporting roles. Tarantino cast him in multiple roles in both parts of “Kill Bill” and his “Death Proof” half of 2007’s “Grindhouse.”

Sometimes, the characters followed Parks from filmmaker to filmmaker.

He played Texas Ranger Earl McGraw in Rodriguez’s “From Dusk Till Dawn,” a role he reprised in “Kill Bill” and “Grindhouse.”

His actor son, James Parks, often joined him, playing McGraw’s son, Edgar.

Michael Smith gave Parks Parks the largest roles of the trio, including his 2014 film “Tusk,” which paired him with Johnny Depp, and 2011’s “Red State,” as a preacher.

Smith on Wednesday called him “my cinematic muse.”

“Michael was, and will likely forever remain, the best actor I’ve ever known,” Smith wrote on Instagram.

“I wrote both ‘Red State’ and ‘Tusk’ for Parks, I loved his acting so much.

He was hands-down the most incredible thespian I ever had the pleasure to watch perform. And Parks brought out the absolute best in me every time he got near my set.”

Parks was briefly married while 16 years old to Louise Johnson, with whom he had a daughter. He is survived by his wife, Oriana Parks, whom he married in 1997, and his son.

Kiwanis Club seeking drivers for 15th annual Soap Box Derby Boys and girls between the ages of 8 and 13 are invited to experience the thrill of racing downhill while competing in the 15th annual Soap Box Derby.

The race begins at 9:45 a.m. June 10 on Waukegan Road, crossing Green Street, in downtown McHenry. A parade will precede the event.

To participate, drivers should weigh less than 130 pounds and be no more than 5 feet, 3 inches tall. Each child will run in at least two heats, and some practice laps. While the cars already are constructed, success in the race involves the ability of each driver to get

the most out of their car.

“Drivers can tweak the handling and the smooth roll of the wheels to achieve the greatest speed from their car,” said Jim Marinangel, the coordinator of the event and executive vice president of McHenry Savings Bank. “The winners are usually the drivers who find the best route on the down-hill track and stick to that groove.”

The winner of the McHenry event will compete July 16 to 22 in the 80th annual All-American Soap Box Derby World Championship Race in Akron, Ohio.

Senate approves abortion safeguards

Senators voted along party lines, 33-22, in favor of the plan, which would permit abortion coverage by state employee health insurance and Medicaid funds. It would also strike statutory language expressing the state’s intent to criminalize the procedure if the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that legalized it is ever overturned.

Firefighters honored and remembered in Springfield

SPRINGFIELD – Firefighters who died in the line of duty were honored during a ceremony at the state Capitol.

The annual Illinois Fallen Firefighters Memorial and Fire Fighting Medal of Honor Awards Ceremony was held Tuesday in Springfield.

The families of two late firefighters were presented with a gold badge. They were Captain Eric Kohlbauer of the Freeport Rural Fire Protection District and Kenneth Harris, a firefighter and paramedic in Oak Park.

Also, two dozen firefighters received the Firefighter Excellence Award for an act of service in the line of duty. The winners included firefighters from departments in Chicago, Kankakee and Pekin.

Midlothian school honoring 2 late students at prom

MIDLOTHIAN – A Midlothian high school plans to honor two students who died as the class’ “honorary” prom king and queen.

The Daily Southtown reported that Bremen High School in Midlothian will honor Mark Gorman and Paola Zambrano during Friday’s prom. Gorman was hit and killed in October by a vehicle while walking home from Boy Scouts. Zambrano died in 2015 after being diagnosed with colon cancer.

Bremen Principal Dave Kibelkis called Gorman and Zambrano “two wonderful kids.” He said the school also will honor them with two empty seats and posthumous diplomas at graduation.

The school still will have a prom court and students are scheduled to vote for king and queen when they enter the dance Friday night at Odyssey Country Club in Tinley Park.

Court upholds FOIA decision involving College of DuPage

CHICAGO – An Illinois appellate court has ruled that the College of DuPage Foundation is subject to the state’s open records law and ordered it to turn over a federal subpoena that the Chicago Tribune requested.

The unanimous decision marks the first time an Illinois higher court has ruled in favor of releasing records in possession of a public college’s fundraising organization, the Tribune reported.

The ruling upholds an earlier ruling by a DuPage Circuit Court judge.

“The Tribune is very pleased with the decision, which is a victory for transparency regarding the affairs of government,” said Karen Flax, the newspaper’s vice president of legal. “The Appellate Court’s decision confirms that public bodies – such as the College of DuPage – cannot shield public records by attempting to contract out governmental functions to a third party.”

The newspaper sued the college and the foundation in April 2015 to obtain various documents after its open-records requests

available to privately insured individuals.

But Republicans countered on the floor that asking taxpayers to fund the procedure goes too far, particularly amid the state’s budget impasse.

“Abortion in itself is repulsive,” said Republican Sen. Neil Anderson of Rock Island. “But to use taxpayer dollars is an absolute travesty.”

Sen. Toi Hutchinson, an Olympia Fields Democrat, pointed to legislation she said supports the well-being of children and mothers along with a robust economy that her Republican colleagues have opposed, such as paid sick leave and subsidized child care.

“The single best thing we can do for our economy is to have over 52 percent of its members able to fully participate in the economic stream,” she said.

Democrats also contended the bill’s second prong, which would remove language in current law they say threatens to re-criminalize abortion if Roe v.

Wade were overturned, is necessary because Trump has said he will appoint Supreme Court justices who oppose the federal ruling.

But Republicans countered the two provisions should stand on their own – if at all – and questioned whether that language could have any effect without further legislative action.

were refused. The requests were filed as the newspaper investigated college spending and contracts.

SIU-Carbondale expected to appoint chancellor

CARBONDALE – Southern Illinois University trustees are poised to choose a new chancellor to lead the Carbondale campus.

A special Board of Trustees meeting is scheduled Wednesday afternoon, and the agenda includes appointing a chancellor for the school’s Carbondale campus.

The (Carbondale) Southern Illinoisan reported that it’s been nearly three years since the school has had a permanent chancellor. An interim chancellor has been in charge since Rita Cheng left in July 2014 to become president of Northern Arizona University.

Interim Chancellor Brad Colwell’s appointment lasts through June 30.

SIU officials in April said they were down to four candidates for the position, including Colwell.

Comey was pushing Trump-Russia probe

By JULIE PACE

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Days before he was fired by Donald Trump, FBI Director James Comey requested more resources to pursue his investigation into Russia’s election meddling and the possible involvement of Trump associates, U.S. officials said Wednesday, fueling concerns that Trump was trying to undermine a probe that could threaten his presidency.

It was unclear whether word of the Comey request, put to deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, ever made its way to Trump. But the revelation intensified the pressure on the White House from both political parties to explain the motives behind Comey’s stunning ouster.

Trump is the first president since Richard Nixon to fire a law enforcement official overseeing an investigation with ties to the White House. Democrats quickly accused Trump of using Comey’s handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation as a pretext and called for a special prosecutor into the Russia probe. Republican leaders brushed off the idea as unnecessary.

Defending the firing, White House officials said Trump’s confidence in Comey had been eroding for months. They suggested Trump was persuaded to take the step by Justice Department officials and a scathing memo, written by Rosenstein, criticizing the director’s role in the Clinton investigation.

“Frankly, he’d been considering letting Director Comey go since the day he was elected,” White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, a sharply different explanation from the day before, when officials put the emphasis on new Justice complaints about Comey.

Trump’s daring decision to oust Comey sparked com-

Sanders was asked about the firing of FBI Director James Comey. parisons to Nixon, who fired the special prosecutor running the Watergate investigation that ultimately led to his downfall. And Trump’s action left the fate of the Russia probe deeply uncertain.

The investigation has shadowed Trump from the outset of his presidency, though he’s denied any ties to Russia or knowledge of campaign coordination with Moscow.

Trump, in a letter to Comey dated Tuesday, contended that the director had told him “three times” that he was not personally under investigation. The White House refused Wednesday to provide any evidence or greater detail.

Former FBI agents said such a statement by the director would be all but unthinkable.

Outraged Democrats called for an independent investigation into the Trump campaign’s possible ties to Russia’s election interference, and were backed by a handful of prominent Republican senators. But Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, with the support of the White House, brushed aside those calls, saying a new investigation would only “impede the current work being done.”

The Senate intelligence committee on Wednesday subpoenaed former Trump

national security adviser Michael Flynn for documents related to its investigation into Russia’s election meddling.

Flynn’s Russia ties are also being scrutinized by the FBI. The White House appeared caught off guard by the intense response to Comey’s firing, given that the FBI director had become a pariah among Democrats for his role in the Clinton investigation.

In defending the decision, officials leaned heavily on a memo from Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, that criticized Comey’s handling of the Clinton investigation.

But Rosenstein’s own role in Comey’s firing became increasingly murky Wednesday.

Three U.S. officials said Comey recently asked Rosenstein for more manpower to help with the Russia investigation. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., said that although he couldn’t be certain the request triggered Comey’s dismissal, he said he believed the FBI “was breathing down the neck of the Trump campaign and their operatives and this was an effort to slow down the investigation.”

Justice Department spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores denied that Comey had asked Rosenstein for more resources for the Russia investigation.

Options for independent Russian probe limited

By EILEEN SULLIVAN

to force a vote on a bill that would create an independent panel to investigate possible contacts between the Trump campaign and Russian officials. The “fireworks at the Department of Justice demand that we remove the investigation from the Trump-appointed Justice Department leadership,” Pelosi said.

Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal said the idea of a special, independent prosecutor is not new. And now is certainly an appropriate time for one.

“I feel strongly that the credibility and independence of this investigation require a special prosecutor,” said Blumenthal, of Connecticut. He also said he’s prepared to introduce legislation to restore the Watergate-era legislation.

If a special counsel is appointed, it would be up to Rosenstein to decide whether to give the prosecutor complete independence. During his Senate confirmation hearing, he was repeatedly pressed by Democrats about whether he would appoint one, and would not commit to doing so.

Many Republicans have said there is no need for an independent prosecutor or special counsel.

North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr was critical of the president’s decision to fire Comey, but said a special counsel was not necessary.

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Democrats’ calls for an independent prosecutor to lead the investigation into Trump campaign contacts with Russia grew louder Wednesday in the aftermath of the FBI director’s ouster, but the options for an independent probe remain limited, and the only current avenue for such an appointment is in the hands of the Justice Department.

The White House has said President Donald Trump’s firing of FBI Director James Comey has nothing to do with the ongoing counterintelligence probe, but lawmakers from both parties are questioning the timing and some Democrats also are asking whether Trump’s move constitutes interfering in an ongoing investigation.

Questions of political interference have dogged the investigation before. In March, Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from anything related to the Russia investigation. On Tuesday, both he and the official currently overseeing the probe, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, recommended that Trump fire Comey.

“If there was ever a time when circumstances warranted a special prosecutor, it is right now,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Wednesday.

There is little Congress can do immediately other than apply political pressure to try to force the Trump administration’s Justice Department to name a special counsel. Other alternatives for an independent investigation require congressional approval and, while Democrats are threatening to introduce legislation, a shot at success appears challenging. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Wednesday a new probe “could only serve to impede the current work being done.”

Even if a special counsel is appointed, it would be difficult to dispel a perception of impropriety. The person ultimately would answer to the Justice Department and any decisions can be overruled. Plus, in most cases, the special counsel works in secret, with no assurance that the probe’s findings will be made public.

In the days before he was fired, Comey told lawmakers he had asked the Justice Department for more resources to pursue the bureau’s investigation, three U.S. officials told The Associated Press.

On Tuesday, the White House released a memo from Rosenstein in which he criticized Comey’s handling of last year’s investigation into Democrat Hillary Clinton’s email practices.

Republican Sen. James Lankford said Congress and the nation deserve to know why Comey was dismissed.

“I understand the desire to be able to

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., leaves the chamber Wednesday to meet with Senate Democrats on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. Schumer is asking that Attorney General Jeff Sessions and his deputy appear before the Senate to answer questions about the circumstances surrounding President Donald Trump’s decision to fire FBI Director James Comey. have a special prosecutor,” said Lankford, of Oklahoma. “Problem is, as we all know, the special prosecutor is selected by the attorney general’s office.”

Democrats also have called for a 9/11type independent commission and for a select congressional committee to investigate, due to concerns that Republican-led panels may not be motivated to aggressively probe the leader of their party and his campaign. Republicans contend existing bipartisan investigations underway in Congress are sufficient. But it wasn’t always this way.

Democrats have been drawing parallels between Comey’s firing and President Richard Nixon’s “Saturday Night Massacre” firing of the independent special prosecutor overseeing the Watergate investigation in 1973. That firing prompted congressional legislation in the late 1970s that authorized the appointment of independent prosecutors by a panel of three judges from the Washington, D.C., U.S. Court of Appeals.

The special prosecutor established in that law had more independence than the Justice Department’s current special counsel position. But Congress let the law expire in 1999.

The last high-profile special counsel to be named was in 2003 when the Bush Justice Department turned to Patrick Fitzgerald, then the top federal prosecutor in Chicago, to investigate who leaked the identity of Valerie Plame, a covert CIA officer. That appointment was made

by Comey, who at the time was deputy attorney general. Comey took the extra step of giving Fitzgerald complete discretion to conduct the investigation, bolstering the special counsel’s independence.

Schumer said Democrats insist a career civil servant at the Justice Department appoint a special counsel to ensure

that the American people can have confidence in the criminal justice system. “It should not be a political appointee who makes such a decision,” he said.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday threatened to use a rarely successful parliamentary maneuver

WASHINGTON – All but ignoring the unfurling drama over Russia and the U.S. election, President Donald Trump on Wednesday sought to advance prospects for cooperation between the former Cold War foes in Syria and elsewhere in a rare Oval Office meeting with Vladimir Putin’s top diplomat.

Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s talks with Trump were already destined to be a closely watched affair, given the dire state of U.S.-Russian relations and diplomatic wrangling going on over a Moscow-backed deal to stabilize Syria.

Yet Trump’s stunning decision on the eve of the meeting to fire the FBI director overseeing a Russia-related investigation injected further intrigue into Lavrov’s first visit to Washington since 2013.

Trump “raised the possibility of broader cooperation on resolving conflicts in the Middle East and elsewhere,” according to a White House statement.

Trump and Lavrov met in private, although both sides cast the session as a sign of ties having improved since the U.S. leader’s assessment of them last month as at an “all-time low.” On Wednesday, they focused on areas of budding agreement and Lavrov sought

from ideology,” focused on reaching agreements. None were apparently reached Wednesday.

The meeting was Trump’s highest level face-to-face contact with a Russian official since taking office and in itself represented modest progress. The last time Lavrov visited the American capital was before Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine and intervened militarily in Syria to help President Bashar Assad – actions that fueled U.S.-Russian tensions.

The Russian diplomat steadfastly refused to weigh in on Trump’s decision to fire James Comey, the former FBI director, who had been overseeing investigations of alleged Russian interference in the U.S. election and possible collusion

by Trump’s campaign. Lavrov called it a U.S. decision, echoing Putin, who said Russia had nothing to do with Comey’s dismissal.

“Was he fired? You’re kidding,” Lavrov said sarcastically, feigning surprise as he started his day of meetings in Washington.

Comey’s dismissal escalated concerns in both parties that Trump may be trying to undermine an investigation that appears to be gaining steam. Trump insisted that wasn’t the case. He said Wednesday he fired Comey because he “was not doing a good job.”

Puerto Illinois?

Puerto Rico, an American territory, last week came face to face with the reality of which Hertbert Stein spoke. Facing billions of dollars in debt, it filed for the equivalence of bankruptcy in federal court, the first time an American state or territory has ever taken such action.

What’s bad for Puerto Rico, the complete collapse of its finances because of years of financial mismanagement, is a warning for Illinois. That’s because even as Puerto Rico has gone over the cliff, Illinois’ leaders are speeding toward the edge of that same cliff.

Puerto Rico listed $123 billion in debt and pensions obligations, way beyond the $18 billion in Detroit reported when it filed for bankruptcy protection in 2013. But Puerto Rico’s staggering numbers still are far less than the debts Illinois acknowledges – $130 billion in underfunded pensions, $12 billion-plus in unpaid bills and another roughly $8 billion in deficits run up in the absence of a state budget over the past two years.

The federal board that has supervised the island’s financial affairs reports that, as a consequence of its dire financial state, Puerto Rico is “unable to provide its citizens effective services.” As a consequence, pensions earned over a lifetime of work will be lost, public safety will be endangered, infrastructure will be neglected, and health and human services will not be available. Ultimately, the island’s best people will opt to move somewhere else because there will be no reason to stay in such a deplorable situation.

Puerto Rico’s immediate future could be Illinois’ near future. Our state already spends so much money on Medicaid and pension for retirees that its core duties – K-12 schools, higher education, roads, law enforcement, social and mental health services – are being starved of resources.

How did Puerto Rico end up in such a mess? Obviously, the Great Recession put it behind the eight ball. But the bigger problem was its long-standing practice – like in Illinois – of spending far more than it collected in revenues, and then resorting to financial gimmicks – like in Illinois – to paper over the problems.

No one wants to see what happened in Puerto Rico happen in Illinois. So why are Gov. Bruce Rauner and House Speaker Michael Madigan locked in a struggle that has more to do with the 2018 gubernatorial election than it does with the people of Illinois?

The answer, of course, is that politics always trumps policy in this sorry state, and it will until the day comes when financial reality trumps all.

This did not have to happen What can an advanced nation, with high-level medical care, say to the Somali-American community of Minnesota, where an outbreak of measles, highly infectious and potentially deadly, is racing ahead because many people failed to get their children vaccinated, fearing a link to autism? This is what must be said: The fears are wrong, vaccinations save lives and this community must overcome distrust in order to overcome disease. There is no excuse for ignorance, not in Minnesota or anywhere else.

As Post reporter Lena H. Sun described in an article Friday, the Somali community in Minnesota is the largest in the U.S. In 2008, parents raised concerns that their children were disproportionately receiving treatment for autism spectrum disorder. A University of Minnesota study in 2010 found that Somali children were about as likely as white children to be identified with autism, but Somali children with autism were more likely to have intellectual disabilities. Although extensive research has disproved the

fears of a link between vaccination and autism, Sun reported that fear of vaccination became entrenched in the Somali community. Parents kept their children from inoculation with the highly effective measles, mumps and rubella vaccine.

In 2004, 92 percent of Somali children in Minnesota were vaccinated, but by 2014 the rate plummeted to 42 percent, well below the 92 to 94 percent needed to protect a group.

Fears of vaccination deepened in Minnesota after Somali parents talked to Andrew Wakefield, the anti-vaccine activist who privately visited at least three times in 2010 and 2011.

Wakefield’s 1998 study purporting to show a link between vaccines and autism was later identified as fraudulent. It was retracted by the medical journal that published it, and his medical license was revoked.

The measles virus, which spreads through the air when a person coughs or sneezes, recently got a foothold among the unvaccinated children in Minnesota. According to the state

health department, as of Tuesday there were 50 cases, of whom 45 were unvaccinated. All but three are children. More cases are expected. Measles was once a scourge that infected 3 million to 4 million Americans annually, of whom 400 to 500 died. Because of the vaccine, the disease was almost completely eradicated in the U.S. by 2000. However, travelers have sometimes brought it from abroad; Somalia continues to have hundreds of suspected cases.

The vaccine is safe; two doses are about 97 percent effective at preventing measles. But the existence of groups of unvaccinated children, such as those in Minnesota, are an outbreak waiting to happen. This is entirely unnecessary. The events in the Somali-American community are not caused by a lack of medical technology or know-how, but rather by the rise of ignorance and fear. They provide a lesson to be spread far and wide: Do not give in to mindless irrationality about vaccines. They can save lives.

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

IT’S YOUR WRITE

Rewarding bad behavior

To the Editor: As I was driving into town, a news commentator observed that in a confrontation, people will choose black or white and not gray. The United Airlines video has been replayed ad nauseum. And doubtless most people will line up on the side of Dr. Dao. But as Judge Judy has often said, but for the actions of Dr. Dao, this incident would not have happened. As in the case of virtually every deadly encounter with police, if the perpetrator just followed police orders, tragedies would not occur.

United Airlines had the absolute right to ask Dr. Dao to give up his seat. His refusal actually is a punishable offense. And he was asked on multiple occasions to relinquish his seat. He contended that he needed to get to his office for appointment and yet he was willing to go to jail.

There is ample evidence his actions may have been premeditated with a civil lawsuit in mind and in fact threatened a lawsuit. Dr. Dao should have complied with the request and

VIEWS Hugh Hewitt but to avoid leaks don’t loop in anyone from your staff. Shut up and sit down, in other words – unnatural acts for senators, I know, but crucial right now. Save us your wisdom until after the deal is done or falls apart.

Of Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Majority Whip John Cornyn of Texas and Republican Conference Chair John Thune of South Dakota, the other 49 GOP senators should demand that they bring back from negotiations with Democrats a “majority keeper and majority builder”: a bill or a group of bills that addresses Obamacare’s many deficiencies as well as a reversal of the sequester’s limits on defense spending, a commitment on moving judicial nominees forward and tax reform. This would both do good for the country and lay the groundwork for expanding the GOP majority in the 2018 midterms.

Republicans will need both a carrot and a stick to get Democrats to the table. To keep Democrats from dragging their feet, Republicans can threaten straight-line approval of the

AHCA via the reconciliation process, which prohibits filibusters. A pledge from all 52 GOP senators to go that route if necessary is the hammer that should make the Democrats step up to the table to negotiate the numerous problems facing the country and left behind by President Barack Obama.

For Minority Leader Charles Schumer of New York to sit down and deal with McConnell, however, the Democratic leader needs more than just threats. He needs some genuine wins for his base. There are several options here: tweaks to the new health care regime, immigration reform that allows the “dreamers” and millions more who haven’t broken any laws since illegally entering the country to stay and work (but not to vote), and of course infrastructure spending.

With the last option in particular, there is mutual interest that can mean dollars for every state (and every imperiled Democratic senator standing in 2018). Republicans can score a win by requiring that those dollars be spent by the state and local governments – preferably the local governments – and not by Washington. Loading the agreement with a good bit of spending – with ending the defense sequester as top priority – will make it all go much easier for all

then made his case. Dr. Dao is not the victim; he is the perpetrator. But in a climate of perpetual victimhood, United Airlines doesn’t stand a chance.

So, every time someone does not want to give up their seat, airlines must give in to their demands?

People seeking financial windfalls can be seen lining up at the gates.

The courts, as they often do, will be rewarding bad behavior.

If the 52 Republicans can sign a letter to Schumer threatening speedy approval of the House’s bill absent serious negotiations and an agreed-upon comprehensive “big deal,” then those Republican senators with qualms about the AHCA can get their fixes embedded in the final health care bill, and those with needs outside of the AHCA can work through the leader to obtain them, and the bill or bills can pass with bipartisan support. What can’t work is 52 Republicans demanding 52 amendments.

House Republicans realized the consequences of their earlier failure to stay united on this issue and got most of the Freedom Caucus’s most intractable members back on board to work out a deal. Now the Senate GOP needs to do the same. It has to work together, and through its leadership, or it will be back to the minority despite the very unlevel playing field of the 2018 elections. If the 52 senators stick together now, so much is possible. Don’t blow it, Republicans.

couple of my published letters, but that was only a test. I really agree with a lot of what those people said. I just wanted to see if anyone had any (misguided) negative things to say, and as always ... well, that’s my problem with both liberals and conservatives. This country needs free-thinkers now more than ever. And people who listen to other real people. And fewer people buried up to their necks in their smartphones. Can you imagine what people will look like wearing all sorts of virtual reality devices? R2D2?

C3PO? Virtual reality? Really?

Reality is tough enough as it is.

People react too quickly, there’s not enough empathy, consideration, kindness and all the good things in life, and while our technology is amazing, there are things more important to me. Nature, for one. Family goes without saying. Life’s way too short.

Enjoy things for what they are. Would you rather be happy or would you rather be right?

With the House’s passage of the American Health Care Act, House Republican leaders have handed their Senate counterparts the biggest legislative weapon they have held in their entire careers. At this point, Senate Republicans should learn from a bit of wisdom often attributed to one of the wittiest and most clear-eyed Founders, Ben Franklin: “We must, indeed, all hang together,” he supposedly told the Continental Congress in 1776, “or most assuredly we shall all hang separately.” If the 52 GOP senators agree to stay together and maneuver through the next month together, they could bring about a huge breakthrough for the country and a rejection of the gridlock that has consumed the Senate for years.

The Senate GOP should begin their part of the legislative process with a sort of Republican Hippocratic Oath: “First, do no damage in your statements and press appearances.” Stake out no must-haves, demand no specific changes, stash the posturing at the town halls. Duck all questions on specifics. Smile and say “no comment.”

Just stick to a message of “We are working together as a caucus toward a common goal of saving American health care from Obamacare and advancing other critical goals.” Ask Senate leaders to keep you in the loop,

BUSINESS Restaurants use technology to get us to spend more

By CANDICE CHOI

ple can play while waiting. That revenue more than offsets the cost of the devices in most cases, Mulinder said.

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Restaurant chains are making it easier to order food with a few taps of the screen – so much so that you may lose sight of how much you’re spending.

The convenience that technology offers may make us less vigilant about how much we’re buying. Digital ordering also lets companies better track our spending habits, and may lead to increasingly personalized offers that are more likely to catch our attention.

Digital ordering helps you find more of the things you want, but it’s worth understanding the other side of the equation: Sometimes, technology is an opportunity to get you to spend more.

app and other digital channels. And people tend to order more online than over the phone, said Domino’s spokesman Tim McIntyre – likely because they can browse the menu and take their time deciding. That can result in people getting another pizza topping, or adding sides.

“They tend to upsell themselves,” McIntyre said of online customers.

Domino’s also has prompts during the ordering process. Once a pizza is ordered, for instance, people might be asked if they want to “cheese it up,” or add drinks near checkout. Employees taking orders by phone also are encouraged to suggest extras – a tactic known as “upselling” or “suggestive

Starbucks is pushing into more personalized offers for loyalty members and mobile app users, which include the recent rollout of “real-time” suggestive selling based on past purchases for people ordering ahead on their smartphones. The company said the efforts are yielding positive results, with spending by loyalty members up by 8 percent in the latest quarter.

“We think that the steps we’ve taken regarding personalization are a driver of that,” spokeswoman Maggie Jantzen said.

The company also has been turning the acquisition of reward points into games. That includes ones such as “Starbucks Bingo” that reward members for making particular purchases.

Panera’s loyalty program also incorporates members’ past purchases.

Unlike in most programs, Panera loyalty members do not know when they’ll get their next reward, or what it will be. Blaine Hurst, Panera’s president, said customers can be placed into one of “thousands” of rewards tracks based on their spending habits. If their spending habits change, they can shift into different tracks.

And the methodology is expected to get more sophisticated. Hurst said companies have been collecting massive amounts of data on customer spending habits, and thinks they will find new ways to use that information.

NEW YORK – Hillary Clinton is coming to next month’s publishing convention.

The former presidential candidate, secretary of state and U.S. senator will speak June 1 at BookExpo, the publishing industry’s annual national gathering, convention officials said Wednesday.

The hourlong event is being billed as “An Evening with Hillary Rodham Clinton” and will take place at the Jacob Javits Center, the site for BookExpo. Officials declined to say whether Clinton will give a speech and/or be interviewed onstage.

Book spills origin tidbits, recipes from Shake Shack

AP file photos

In this combination photo, filmmaker Steve McQueen (left) appears Feb. 2, 2014, at The London Critics Circle Awards in London, and rapper Tupac Shakur attends a voter registration event Aug. 15, 1996, in South Central Los Angeles.

McQueen is set to direct a documentary about Shakur.

Steve McQueen to direct Tupac Shakur documentary LOS ANGELES – Academy Award-winner Steve McQueen is set to direct a documentary about Tupac Shakur. Shakur Estate trustee Tom Whalley and Amaru Entertainment said Tuesday that the film is fully sanctioned by the late hip-hop artist’s estate. McQueen is best known for directing “12 Years a Slave,” which won the best picture Oscar in 2014 and earned him a best director nomination.

The director said in a statement that he looks forward to working with Shakur’s family to bring his unvarnished story to life. Shakur’s aunt and late mother’s sister Gloria Cox will serve as an executive producer.

“Few, if any, shined brighter than Tupac Shakur,” said McQueen, who hinted there was some overlap between himself and Shakur during his time at NYU film school in 1993.

Whalley hopes that the documentary will help take Shakur’s legacy beyond “the refraction of the headlines, the controversy and the tragic way his life ended.” Shakur died at age 25 in a still-unsolved drive-by shooting in 1996 in Las Vegas. Cox said that the genesis of the project started with Shakur himself in 1996 and was something that his mother, Afeni Shakur, continued pursuing until her death last year.

“Our goal has always been to tell the true story, which has never been done before in such a complete way. My sister always said to me, ‘We are not in the business of defending Tupac. Our job is to allow him to be seen in the most complete way, so his actions, his choices, and his words will allow him to speak for himself,’ ” Cox said. “I believe this film will do exactly that.”

NEW YORK – Harken back to when Shake Shack was not a burger-flipping force in more than 130 locations around the globe.

Then, in 2001, it was a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park, where it opened as part of an art installation. It operated for three summers, losing money each year.

So said its creator, restaurateur Danny Meyer, in a new book full of origin tidbits and recipes from the land of the longest lines. Published this month by Clarkson Potter, “Shake Shack” was co-written by company CEO Randy Garutti and culinary director Mark Rosati.

If you’re looking for culinary secrets, forget about it. The recipe for ShackSauce, for instance? Rosati, in an interview with The Associated Press, wasn’t giving it up, but the book gets Shack fanatics close with another recipe that can be made at home. It’s a fun read, part Shack kitsch and part, if you must have crinkle fries, here’s how to make some.

NBC to air ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ live next Easter

NBC is adding another live musical to its slate. The network said Wednesday that it will air the rock opera “Jesus Christ Superstar” on Easter Sunday 2018.

The musical’s creators, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, are among the executive producers of “Jesus Christ Superstar Live!”

NBC Entertainment Chairman Robert

Greenblatt said casting is just getting started. He said the goal is to use as many recording artists as possible to give “proper voice” to the score.

“Jesus Christ Superstar,” originally conceived as a concept album, opened on Broadway in 1971 with Ben Vereen.

NBC already has aired live productions of “The Sound of Music,” “Peter Pan,” “The Wiz” and “Hairspray.” Up next for the network is “Bye Bye Birdie” in December, starring Jennifer Lopez.

‘Daily Show’ alums have reunion on ‘Late Show’

NEW YORK – It was a rare TV reunion Tuesday as Stephen Colbert played host to a gang of fellow “Daily Show” alums on a special edition of CBS’ “The Late Show.”

Along with Jon Stewart, former longtime anchor of the Comedy Central fake newscast, Colbert welcomed Samantha Bee, John Oliver, Ed Helms and Rob Corddry, all of whom, like Colbert, sharpened their satirical skills and won fans as “Daily Show” correspondents before heading out on their own.

Colbert joked, “We haven’t aged a day.”

A comic sketch flashed back to spoof Colbert’s departure from “The Daily Show” in 2005.

“I can’t believe you’re leaving right in the middle of the George W. Bush administration,” Bee told him. “There’s never gonna be another president this good for comedy.

This guy does something ridiculous like at least ONCE every MONTH!”

26 Choose diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods Dear Doctors: Can the food we eat affect chronic inflammation in the body?

Dear Reader: In our previous column, we addressed the first half of a two-part question about inflammation – what it is, and how it can be affected by diet. In answering the first half of the question, we discussed the two main types of inflammation and how they take place.

To (briefly) recap: Inflammation is the body’s immune response to a perceived threat. Acute inflammation, a short-lived reaction to injury, trauma or infection, causes swelling, redness, and a sensation of heat and pain. Chronic inflammation, a low-level reaction, takes place below the threshold of pain.

As a result, it tends to fly under the radar.

But unlike acute inflammation, which abates when the threat has been neutralized, chronic inflammation continues. It has been linked to heart disease, cancer, arthritis, diabetes, obesity and Alzheimer’s disease.

Does what we eat have an effect on chronic inflammation? Research shows yes, components of certain foods can activate the inflammatory response, and others inhibit it.

Unfortunately, many staples of the modern diet encourage inflammation. Refined carbohydrates and processed foods such as chips, sodas, sugary breakfast cereals, lunch meats, fried foods, red meat, candy bars, breakfast pastries and that addictive blended mocha with a swirl of whipped cream all have an inflammatory effect.

Foods that combat inflammation are high in natural antioxidants and contain polyphenols, which are beneficial compounds found in plants. These include: • dark leafy greens such as spinach, collard greens and kale; • vegetables such as cabbage and broccoli; • beans, which are high in fiber and antioxidants; • whole grains, which are high in fiber and help with inflammation; and

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Elizabeth Ko and Eve Glazier • protein sources high in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, mackerel, sardines and tuna.

You don’t have to completely cut out beef. But use it sparingly, more as a side dish rather than the main event. Lose the sunflower, canola and corn oils and use olive oil instead. Satisfy your sweet tooth with strawberries, cherries, raspberries, apples or blueberries. When you need a snack, swap out that bag of potato chips for a handful of almonds or walnuts.

While it’s never too late to change your diet for the better, research here at UCLA suggests it can’t be done too soon. According to the findings of a recent study, women who ate a diet high in inflammatory foods during their adolescent years had a statistically greater risk of developing pre-menopausal breast cancer as adults. The thinking is chronic inflammation associated with diet contributed to the increase in breast cancer risk.

The research into inflammation and diet has good news, too. Participants in a clinical trial at Ohio State University who ate an anti-inflammatory diet high in fish, fresh fruits and vegetables, and whole grains did better on bone density tests than did their chips- and sugar-eating counterparts.

How to move forward? There’s no shortage of books and cookbooks devoted to anti-inflammatory eating. Grab your library card and hit the stacks – the results will be both healthful and delicious.

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

Dear Abby: We DEAR ABBY have some great friends we have Jeanne known for five Phillips years. Our families enjoy time together, and although the friendship started through our kids, I now get together with the other mom outside of kid-related activities.

Her son, “Michael,” and my daughter (ages 12) are best friends in middle school, and I truly care for him, as well as his family.

I have assumed for a long time Michael is gay. Since late last year, he’s been having a lot of trouble with a certain group of boys who call him gay – among other names – and bully him.

His mom knows he is different, but his dad is deep in denial, doing his best to force his son to associate with this group of kids because they are “jocks” and popular. Michael hangs out with and is most comfortable with girls. It has always been this way, in spite of his parents’ attempts to find him a boy group to fit into.

The bullying is escalating and, while his dad remains in denial, his mom is telling Michael to ignore it and not draw attention to himself for fear it may get worse.

I’m scared for the boy. He is the always-smiling, happy-go-lucky kid on the outside, but there’s no way he can be feeling that way on the inside being on the receiving end of this kind of abuse every day. I have encouraged his mom to talk to school authorities, but she refuses. We have never spoken directly about the possibility Michael may be gay because I can feel the fear and denial in what she isn’t saying. What can I do? – His B.F.F.’s Mom Dear Mom: It is tragic that Michael’s parents can’t accept their son for who he is, rather than who they would like him to be. That’s why it is absolutely vital you befriend that boy to the best of your ability. Contact PFLAG (pflag.org) and request information about how to support a young person who is more than likely LGBT. Let the boy know you love him just the way he is and being different isn’t wrong. If you do, it could mean the difference between life and death – and that’s no exaggeration.

Dear Abby: I am engaged to a wonderful, loving, respectful man I have known for seven months. But when he drinks too much, he starts saying I should meet someone else because he’s not good enough for me. It’s like he’s trying to drive me away. Do you think this is how he really feels? He says if I want to leave, he’ll understand, because I deserve someone better.

What should I do? – Engaged In North Carolina Dear Engaged: Talk to your fiancé about this when he’s sober. Realize your wonderful, loving, respectful gentleman may have a drinking problem, so be prepared in advance by visiting an Al-Anon group.

It should be plain to you he has self-esteem issues that could have a negative impact on your relationship if they aren’t dealt with. So make your engagement a long one to be sure he’s willing and able to do that.

DASHING DUO

Huntley’s Miller, Davis finish 1-2 in 100 hurdles, make state

By ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com ANTIOCH – After Tyra Miller defeated her in the 100-meter high hurdles Wednesday at the Class 3A Antioch Girls Track and Field Sectional, Huntley freshman Daryn Davis was quick to congratulate her Red Raiders teammate with a tight embrace.

“It’s been that way all year,” said Davis, who was runner-up to Miller, a junior. Both advance to next weekend’s state meet at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston.

Wednesday’s meet was suspended with six running events left after the Fully Automatic Timing system went down twice with a steady rain falling.

The first time, it delayed the meet for almost an hour.

When the meet resumed, only one running event was able to finish before the FAT system stopped working again. All of the field events were able to finish despite the wet conditions.

The sectional will resume at 5:30 p.m. Thursday and run alongside the Northern Lake County Conference boys meet, which originally was scheduled for Thursday.

Miller ended up winning the 100 hurdles in 15.58 seconds, and Davis placed second at 15.79. The Huntley duo became two of four Raiders to advance to the state meet, and it was the first time in school history two girls qualified in the same event.

With six events to go, Huntley was leading the 15-team sectional meet with 66 points. Harlem was second with 53, and Belvidere North (40) was third. Prairie Ridge was fifth, McHenry was seventh, Crystal Lake Central was 10th, Jacobs was 11th, Crystal Lake South was 12th and Hampshire was 15th.

“I was thinking about it all day,” Davis said of the 100 hurdles. “It was the only thing I thought about. I wasn’t too pumped about the rain, but you don’t think about it when you’re running. I had one hurdle at the beginning that was off, but otherwise it fell pretty good.”

Davis also qualified in the triple jump, placing third at 36-53/4 and surpassing the state-qualifying mark of 35-11.

Huntley freshman Kendall Only (35-113/4) also qualified for state in the triple jump, and junior McKenzie

Krich went 5-3 in the high jump to finish first and advance to state.

Huntley is trying to become the first girls team in school history to win the McHenry County Meet, Fox Valley Conference Meet and sectional meet in the same season.

McHenry’s 4x100 relay team of Janessa Kruse, Jamie Howie, Holly Vogt and Jenna Pauly finished third and advanced with a time of 49.33, beating the state qualifying time of 49.45. It also was a school record, the third or fourth time they beat it, Kruse said.

“We knew in our heart that we would do it,” Kruse said. “But then you go out there, and it’s like,

‘We’ve got to beat all of these amazing teams.’ We were just focused on times, and we pulled through by dropping .40 seconds (from our seed time).”

Vogt, a freshman, also qualified in the long jump, winning the event at 17-71/2. Prairie Ridge junior Natasha Schaffer (17-11/2) was second. Schaffer also qualified for state in the triple jump, placing second at 36-71/4.

Jacobs freshman Kyra Cabusao was second in the shot put and qualified for state, throwing 38-31/2.

“After my first throw, I was mad, so I just kind of used that to push myself,” said Cabusao, who tossed 33 feet on her first attempt before finishing

with her season best. “I’m just really excited and pumped.

“The rain makes the ball a little more slippery, and sometimes the rain is slippery on my feet because I don’t have proper throwing shoes on.

I have running shoes on.”

Prairie Ridge senior Sam Fisher advanced in the pole vault, getting second with a jump of 10-3. Senior Caitlin Bruzzini from Crystal Lake South is returning to state in the 3,200 after winning in 11:06.17. She’ll also run in the 1,600 on Thursday.

The final heats of the 800 meters, 4x200 relay, 4x400 relay, 400 meters, 300 low hurdles, 1,600 meters and 200 meters remain.

Pole vaulters will compete at 5 p.m. Thursday at R-B. Even without the pole vault results, Vernon Hills’ lead is insurmountable for the team title. After Wednesday, Vernon Hills (132.33) led Carmel (63) and Marengo (60) out of 14 total teams.

Heidtke finished second in both the 100 hurdles (16.49) and the 300 hurdles (47.37).

“It’s been my dream come true,” Heidtke said. “Just to go through the season and trying to drop time. Ev-

erything led up to this meet, and my teammates, my coaches, my dad, everyone was here for me, and I’m grateful for all of them.”

Heidtke said it was difficult not competing last year. She wasn’t able to run again until the end of cross country season in the fall.

“She’s psyched to go,” Erwin said.

“She’s still somebody who goes after it all the time. She’s back.”

Woodstock also qualified Kylie Hagmann in the 3,200 (11:22.58) and Kate Jacobs in the 1,600 (5:20.13).

of the local teams competing. Three Indians qualified for state: Jordan Parker in the long jump (16 feet, 1 3/4 inches), Bailey Bertrand in the shot put (33-53/4) and the discus (96-4) and Lillie Simons in the 100 (12.93).

All three are freshmen. Parker said the conditions made jumping tough.

“I felt OK,” she said. “It wasn’t my best jump. All day this meet has been on my mind, really nervous. Trying to keep a positive attitude really helped.”

Bertrand just took up the discus this spring.

“Discus, it was really stressful,” Bertrand said. “I was so happy. Being a freshman, I didn’t think I would make it in discus.”

Bertrand said learning discus was hard at first, “but then it got easier.”

The freshman proved her progress with the second-place finish Wednesday.

R-B’s Megan Curran beat her out to qualify in both events, as well. The senior was a state qualifier in the shot put last year, too.

The Rockets’ Emma Langlois (2:26.24) and Amy Frisch (2:28.81) finished first and second in the 800, both qualifying for state.

Marian’s Eve Meintz qualified for state in the high jump (5-1), Brenna Koch qualified in the triple jump (3471/2), and Abigail Jones qualified in the 3,200 (11:35.57).

PREP ROUNDUP

State tournament postponed R-B soccer team advances The ASSOCIATED PRESS

with Northwest Herald reports CARLYLE – High water levels on Carlyle Lake in southern Illinois have forced the postponement of the state high school bass fishing tournament, in which three local teams are scheduled to compete.

The IHSA on Wednesday said the event that was planned for May 19 and 20 will be rescheduled for later this spring. The IHSA said its board of directors made the decision because of “potentially dangerous water levels” after talking with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which oversees the lake.

Three local teams, from Huntley, Prairie Ridge and Woodstock North, qualified out of this past weekend’s IHSA sectionals.

Woodstock North’s Matt Fallow and Jason Conrad won the Chain O’ Lakes North Sectional with a total weight of 10.58 pounds and won the award for biggest bass.

The Huntley team of Tyler Colton, Brandon Rau, Nicholas Dennis and Mary Raclawski took second at the Chain O’ Lakes South Sectional with a total weight of 8.53 pounds. Prairie Ridge’s Derek Greiner and Cory Kimble took third with 6.65 pounds.

This isn’t the first time the IHSA has had to postpone the tournament. It was pushed back in 2011 and 2013 when storms produced high water levels.

IHSA Bass Fishing Administrator Kurt Gibson said Carlyle Lake has started to release water to lower its levels, and a new tournament date should be scheduled soon.

Lillan Maclean scored the opening goal in the first half on an assist from Ross. Shortly after halftime, Blaney doubled the lead with an assist from Ross. Breanne Retherford made it 3-0 on an assist from Blaney, and Angelica Mrugala scored, assisted by Rachel Daye.

RICHMOND – At a recent Woodstock girls track practice, someone’s foot rattled a hurdle and Woodstock hurdler Syd Heidtke joked it was giving her flashbacks.

A year ago, Heidtke qualified for state in the 300-meter low hurdles, only to break her ankle on a hurdle the week before the IHSA state meet. She was Syd Heidtke forced to sit out her event; however, she did travel with the team to Eastern Illinois University for the meet.

The sound of a rattling hurdle still isn’t welcome.

“She was joking of course, but I think there’s a little bit of truth to it,” Blue Streaks girls track coach Steve Erwin said.

The sophomore finally will have her chance to compete at state this year – barring any mishaps – after qualifying in both the 100 high hurdles and the 300 low hurdles at the IHSA Class 2A Richmond-Burton Sectional on Wednesday.

Heidtke was one of a number of local athletes to qualify for state.

The meet got off to a soggy start, and running events were delayed about 45 minutes. Rain fell throughout the

Surgery possible after Soto goes on 10-day DL

The Pittsburgh Penguins’ Conor Sheary (center) and Patric Hornqvist (right) celebrate with Nick Bonino after Hornqvist’s goal in the third period of Game 7 of an Eastern Conference semifinal against the Capitals on Wednesday in Washington. The Penguins won, 2-0.

STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS ROUNDUP

Penguins top Caps to reach East final Ducks nip Oilers in West semifinal The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Marc-Andre Fleury turned back the clock with a brilliant 29-save shutout, Bryan Rust and Patric Hornqvist scored, and the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Washington Capitals, 2-0, in Game 7 on Wednesday night to advance to the Eastern Conference final.

The defending champion Penguins are eight victories away from another Stanley Cup and will have home-ice advantage against the Ottawa Senators.

The Presidents’ Trophy-winning Capitals failed to get beyond the second round for the seventh time in as many chances in the Alex Ovechkin era.

Rust was again a hero in a crucial game for Pittsburgh, scoring his eighth goal in 12 career games facing elimination or with the chance to eliminate an opponent. Fleury looked like his old self from the start of the series if not his 2009 Cup run in frustrating the Capitals.

Washington’s Braden Holtby made 26 saves.

Despite it being the second round, this Game 7 had the feel of a deciding game of the Stanley Cup Final with the top two teams in the NHL facing off.

After Pittsburgh took a 3-1 series lead, Washington roared back to tie it and

seemed to have all the confidence.

When the Capitals had the game’s first four shots, Fleury was there to weather the storm and the Penguins responded with the next six. It took until 8:49 of the second period for Pittsburgh to silence the crowd as a failed clear by Matt Niskanen got the puck from Sidney Crosby to Jake Guentzel to Rust for his fifth goal of the playoffs.

Ducks 2, Oilers 1: At Anaheim, California, Nick Ritchie scored the tiebreaking goal early in the third period, and Anaheim ended its streak of five straight Game 7 losses with a victory over Edmonton, advancing to the Western Conference final for the second time in three years.

Andrew Cogliano scored the tying goal midway through the second period for the Ducks, who had blown a 3-2 series lead and lost a Game 7 on home ice in four consecutive seasons.

After a rally from an early deficit and a strong defensive performance to back John Gibson’s 23 saves, the Ducks ended their ignominious streak and moved halfway to the franchise’s second Stanley Cup title.

Anaheim will host the Nashville Predators in Game 1 of the conference finals Friday night.

CHICAGO – For the second time this season, the White Sox placed catcher Geovany Soto on the 10-day disabled list with right elbow inflammation.

Soto, 34, said he experienced “very sharp pain in the back of the elbow” and said surgery is Geovany Soto “a possibility.’’

“Kind of waiting on what’s the best route for us and see what the doctor can tell me about what’s going on,’’ he said before the Sox game against the Twins Wednesday was called off due to rain.

Catcher Kevan Smith was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte, as he was when Soto was placed on the DL the first time 27 days ago.

Soto, who was scratched from the lineup Tuesday, has struggled to stay on the field the past two seasons.

He was limited to 26 games with the Angels in 2016 because of knee injuries and lasted 10 days before going on the DL April 13.

Soto has batted .190 with three homers and nine RBIs in 13 games.

Smith, 28, was with the Sox from April 13 to 20, going 1 for 11 over three games. In 14 games with Charlotte he is batting .377 with six doubles, 15 RBIs, six walks and a .435 onbase percentage.

“It’s an easy transition,’’ Smith said. “I feel comfortable up here. It feels like I haven’t missed a beat.’’

The Sox probably could use a veteran in their catching mix, but bullpen catcher Mark Salas said the coaching staff is comfortable with Narvaez and Smith, whom they view as intelligent young catchers.

Sox, Twins rained out: The rained out game against the Twins will be made up as part of a straight doubleheader Aug. 21, a Monday.

The rainout doesn’t affect the pitching rotation. Left-hander Derek Holland, scheduled to start Wednesday, will pitch Thursday against the Twins’ Phil Hughes with Miguel Gonzalez, Dylan Covey and Jose Quintana facing the Padres this weekend at home.

The makeup doubleheader Aug. 21 will begin at 4:10 p.m.

Anderson mourns: Tim Anderson is mourning the loss of close friend Branden Moss, 23, who was fatally shot early Sunday after he came to the aid of a man who was being assaulted by several others outside a Tuscaloosa, Alabama, bar.

Moss is the godfather of Anderson’s young daughter and Anderson is the godfather of Moss’ daughter.

“We definitely had a very tight bond,” Anderson said Wednesday.

“He was very close to me, more so a brother.”

Manager Rick Renteria gave Anderson the day off Sunday in Baltimore. He was back in the lineup Tuesday.

“Just tears, hurt,” Anderson said.

“It was tough, just to think about the last conversation and text we had was real tough.”

A suspect is in custody.

NBA PLAYOFFS: CELTICS 123, WIZARDS 101

Celtics grab 3-2 series lead

By KYLE HIGHTOWER The Associated Press

BOSTON – Avery Bradley scored a playoff career-high 29 points, and the Boston Celtics beat the Washington Wizards, 123-101, Wednesday night to take a 3-2 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Al Horford added 19 points, seven assists, and six rebounds. Isaiah Thomas also was active, scoring 18 points and handing out nine assists.

Game 6 is Friday in Washington.

Boston led by as many as 26 points,

negating Washington’s physicality by spreading the floor and knocking down 16 3-pointers.

John Wall had 21 for the Wizards, who haven’t won a playoff game in Boston since 1982.

The Wizards scored the first four points of game, but that was followed by a 16-0 run by the Celtics. It was the fourth time in the series that one team had a run of at least 16-0.

Also Wednesday, the NBA fined Thomas $25,000 for inappropriate language toward a fan during the Celtics’ Game 4 loss at Washington.

Cubs relief pitcher Carl Edwards Jr. yells into his glove after giving up a two-run single to Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez in the seventh inning Wednesday in Denver. with a two-run single with two out.

“That’s just one of those non-fortuitous moments,” said Cubs manager Joe Maddon, who said it shouldn’t have mattered what pitch was thrown. “That guy can’t hit.”

If there was a fortuitous part of the game for the Cubs, it was Hendricks – last year’s major league ERA leader – who said he felt closer to last year’s form Wednesday than he has all season.

After struggling early, he has a 1.52 ERA in his past four starts.

That start followed John Lackey’s

seven-inning scoreless start in Tuesday night’s victory in the second game of a doubleheader. It’s the first set of backto-back quality starts for the Cubs since Brett Anderson (now on the disabled list) and Hendricks did it April 24 and 25.

“At least over these last two games, seeing the way the bullpen threw and seeing Lack last night, hopefully we can start getting deep in games and really take it on the pitching staff,” Hendricks said, “and start setting a precedent for the rest of the team.”

Until then, the starters drag a 4.56 ro-

tation ERA into St. Louis after returning their top four starters from a group that led the majors with a 2.96 ERA last year.

They also leave Colorado with a streak of five consecutive games allowing at least one unearned run (eight total in the five games) – just the latest shaky stretch for a group of fielders that lapped the majors in almost every defensive metric last year.

“We may not pitch that good (as in 2016), but I know we’re going to pitch better than we have to this point,” Maddon said. “We may not play defense to that level, but we’re still going to play really good defense, and it’s still going to be good enough. We’ve just got to get back closer to the levels that we’re capable of.”

Maddon not ready to move Schwarber

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

DENVER – Cubs manager Joe Maddon gave leadoff man Kyle Schwarber the night off in the second game of Tuesday’s doubleheader.

On Wednesday, he gave first baseman Anthony Rizzo the day off, and used Schwarber in the No. 3 spot – even saying he briefly considered batting Rizzo leadoff to help the struggling Schwarber shake the slump.

AP photo A sign that Maddon is softening The Cubs’ Kyle Schwarber bats against the Rock- on Schwarber as his leadoff man, ies in the sixth inning Wednesday in Denver. toying with other looks?

Not even close.

“As of right now, I’m not ready to just give up on anything like that,” Maddon said. “And his struggles are not anywhere based on him hitting leadoff. He’s just struggling.”

As the season approaches the quarter mark, Schwarber leads the Cubs with 43 strikeouts. His season average dropped below .200 after a hitless Wednesday. And even with his 21 walks, his on-base percentage hovers just above .300.

His numbers are worse against left-handers.

“It’s not about Schwarber hitting leadoff. He’s just not hitting like Schwarber yet, that’s all,” Maddon

said. “Once he starts hitting, which he will, that number’s going to get so pretty.”

The Schwarber question has been batted around since Dexter Fowler departed for St. Louis as a free agent in the offseason. Maddon reiterated Wednesday his other good leadoff candidate is Ben Zobrist – the veteran switch-hitter, who also offers what he considers his best protection for No. 3-hitting Rizzo in the cleanup spot. Among other things, he risks stacking lefthanders in the middle if he puts Zobrist at the top.

“It just feels good this way,” he said.

DENVER – This is not a playoff team.

The Cubs are a .500, third-place team as they take a day off ahead of their weekend series against the division-leading Cardinals – having lost five of their past six games and three of their last four series.

Their once-vaunted fielding has been suspect. Their once-dominant starting pitching has been inconsistent. Their leadoff man is batting .195 and leads the team in strikeouts.

On one hand, there’s a lot of time left this season for the defending World Series champs to get things right.

On the other hand, it’s starting to get a little late to say it’s still early.

A playoff team? The way they’ve looked so far, dropping to 17-17 after Wednesday’s 3-0 loss to rookie German Marquez and the Rockies at Coors Field?

“I don’t think so,” said right-hander Kyle Hendricks, who was tagged with the loss despite pitching well into the seventh inning. “It’s not clear-cut. I wouldn’t say we are, and if we were to get in the playoffs right now the way we’re playing, it wouldn’t go too well.”

If there’s reason for Cubs optimism for what’s on the 2017 horizon, Hendricks (2-2) might be one of the bigger reasons.

The only runs he allowed Wednesday were an unearned run in the fourth on Javy Baez’s fielding error at shortstop and two runs that scored after he left the game in the seventh – when Marquez inexplicably got his bat around on a twostrike, 94 mph fastball above the letters from Carl Edwards Jr. and wound up

Why don’t more women take up fishing?

I’ve spent a lot of time, as of late, discussing the future of fishing.

Recently, in this column, I let the Illinois Department of Natural Resources’ Dan Stephenson talk about “churn,” a term used to describe buyer turnover for fishing licenses every year.

The American Sportfishing Association spends a lot of time, money and energy trying to bring more people into the sport to keep it alive and vibrant for future generations to enjoy.

One thing I like to discuss is the subject of women in the sport. Now, please realize that I am not a sexist in any way, shape or form. When I use the term “fisherman,” I use it to denote both men and women. From what I can see, I believe that women are as good at fishing as men, and there is no reason that they should not be.

I can cite studies by reputable organizations that say that women make up about one out of every four anglers. My own evidence is anecdotal from watching people getting into boats at docks, from watching people at local ponds, from talking to charter captains, from talking to guides and from walking the aisles at fishing shows. My own experience tells me the number of women in fishing is much lower than 1-in-4.

The big question for me is why there are fewer women involved in the sport of fishing than there are men? I can’t figure it out. I need to figure out the reason in order to come up with a solution. I need to find out whether there are any roadblocks that are in place that limit females from enjoying time on the water with a rod and reel in hand.

My daughter, Michelle, is a real trooper. When she starts fishing it is almost impossible to get her to stop.

Her 5-pound-plus smallie that she caught in Michigan a couple of years ago is the best fish caught by anyone in our family.

I did not push Michelle into fishing. The love of the sport came to her naturally. I don’t push my kids into anything. I find that if you push kids, they have a tendency to push back.

I just figure I am lucky that I have a daughter who loves to fish.

Anyway, the subject of getting women into fishing is something I plan on tackling over the next few weeks. I would really appreciate any input you can give me on the subject.

Let me know your thoughts on why so few women are into the sport and what we can do to change that. I am very serious about this.

••• In January, I received a call

OUTDOORS Steve Sarley from a woman stating she was former Gov. Pat Quinn’s administrative assistant. She asked me for my current address and pertinent contact information. I asked why she wanted it. She told me that Quinn was having his portrait hung in the State Capitol’s Hall of Governors, and he wanted to make sure that I was invited to the ceremonies. I asked why. She said Quinn said I was important to him in many of his efforts as governor and wanted me to be there. I hung up the phone and sat totally stunned.

I had Quinn on my radio show when he was lieutenant governor.

I arranged the interview with his people. After the show, Quinn called me and said if I ever needed him, I should call him at home or on his cellphone. He said he loved my show and always listened. I merely assumed he was being kind but later learned from people that he did indeed listen in to me in my early morning weekend slot.

Quinn was a guest on my show any times. We always talked about matters of concern to sportsmen and environmentalists. Quinn had our interests at heart and fought hard for us. He never turned down a request to come on the air with me. I liked Quinn and considered him to be a friend, although we never actually ever met face-to-face.

When I showed up at Quinn’s crowded portrait-unveiling reception, I joined the line of people wanting to shake his hand and have a photo snapped with the ex-governor. When it was my turn, I walked up to him and introduced myself. He said, “We’ve never met, Steve, but I’d recognize that voice anywhere.” He then thanked me for my efforts on all of the many projects we had worked on. It was one of the proudest moments in my career as a journalist.

It’s nice to have a job that allows me more satisfaction on occasion than just a paycheck.

••• I am looking for someone who would be able to furnish a weekly fishing report covering Geneva Lake.

I’d also like someone who can do one on Delavan Lake. Are there any volunteers or suggestions for me, please?

I am also always on the lookout for pictures of readers with prize catches that we can run alongside this column.

Let me know your thoughts on why so few women are into the sport (of fishing) and what we can do to change that.

FISHING REPORT Northern Illinois: Dave Kranz from

Dave’s Bait, Tackle and Taxidermy in Crystal Lake reports: “The dams at McHenry, Algonquin and Carpentersville are at the highest levels of the season. With more rains in the forecast, it may take some time for the river levels to go down. North of Algonquin and south of McHenry are ‘no wake’ boating at this time. Some crappie and bass are being caught in the backs of channels.

“The McHenry County Conservation Area’s ‘the Hollows’ has Lake Atwood, and reports are that some bass and bluegill are being caught.

Use waxworms or redworms for the gills, nightcrawlers for the bass. No minnows are allowed to be used at this site.

“Vulcan Lakes at the Three Oaks Recreation Area in Crystal Lake is starting to see smallmouth and largemouth bass getting more active.

They should start to spawn in the next few days. This is also a ‘no minnows’ area and is catch-and-release only.”

For info on northern Illinois fishing, call 815-455-2040 for an updated report.”

Fox Chain O’ Lakes: Chris Taurisano of T-Bone Guide Service (www. tboneguideservice.com – 630-3300090) sends word, “Fishing has been very good. The walleyes and crappies have been very good all spring. Jigs and crankbaits are your best bets.

White bass are active in deeper water right now.”

With our unpredictable weather, you should always get up-to-theminute water conditions on the Fox Chain and Fox River. Spring rains can change water conditions in a matter of hours.

Go to www.foxwaterway.state. il.us or call 847-587-8540.

Lake Michigan: The Lake Michigan Fishing Report is provided by Caleb Weiner of Migrator Charters – 815338-8093. “Despite the weather over the past weekend, fishing was on fire. Limits of Coho salmon could be taken anywhere between 150 and 250 feet. Bites came anywhere from the surface all the way down to 150 feet.

While fishing that deep, the occasional lake trout could be found, as well. Down Deep spoons and Dodger flies were very good lures. The RV

Moonshine Wonder Bread and Green Jeans were the best spoons and the white hotspot with a Howie Green Crinkle fly was very good, as well.

Up high, the regular Little Red Dodgers and Peanut flies were working.”

Wisconsin: You can call Wisconsin’s Lake Michigan Fishing Hotline at 414-382-7920 to hear the latest fishing information for Lake Michigan and its tributaries. Excellent Wisconsin Lake Michigan fishing is posted at dnr.wi.gov/topic/Fishing/ lakemichigan/OutdoorReport.html.

Illinois: The IDNR offers fishing reports on a number of waterways across the state. The fishing reports for lakes, rivers and streams are updated weekly at www.ifishillinois. org/fishing_reports/fishing_report_ selector.php.

NEWS AND NOTES Walleyes Unlimited USA event: Our

friends at Walleyes Unlimited USA are hosting a special event. It’s a free children’s fishing clinic May 21, from 2 to 5 p.m. It’s being held at the Hastings Lake Forest Preserve, 21155 Gelden Road, Lake Villa. Contact Eric Ehrhardt at 224-415-1354 or by email at ericehrhardt@att.net for more information.

New state record: The IDNR Division of Fisheries announced that a new state-record hybrid crappie was caught March 28 at Kinkaid Lake in Jackson County.

The fish, caught by Ryan Povolish of Carbondale, weighed 4 pounds, 8.8 ounces. The fish appeared to be a black crappie, but genetic testing completed by the Illinois Natural History Survey confirmed it to be a hybrid crappie.

“The fish had the appearance of a black crappie, but that’s why we do the genetic testing,” said Dan Stephenson, chief of the IDNR Division of Fisheries. “Ryan’s catch is another indicator of the great fishing opportunities anglers can find here in Illinois.”

The previous state-record hybrid crappie, caught in a Jefferson County pond in 2008, weighed 4 pounds, 8.3 ounces.

The existing state-record black crappie was caught at Rend Lake in 1976, weighing 4 pounds, 8 ounces.

The Illinois record white crappie weighing 4 pounds, 7 ounces, was caught in a pond in Morgan County in 1973.

8 BEARS

Free-agent WR Gentry eager to prove himself VIEWS Adam L Jahns

Time had expired when Wyoming quarterback Josh Allen rolled right. A big-time throw-and-catch was needed if the Cowboys were going to extend their Nov. 12 game against UNLV to overtime. It was needed to win.

Allen, of course, looked for receiver Tanner Gentry.

“For Josh,” Gentry said, “I was a guy that whenever he threw the ball, he knew I was going to come down with it.”

And he did. Gentry made a one-handed catch on the right edge of the end zone and got a foot and a hand inbounds.

It was one of two receptions made

by Gentry that day that resulted in an appearance on “SportsCenter’s” “Top 10.” The first was a falling one-handed, 50-yard touchdown catch with a defender all over him late in the first half.

“Unfortunately, we didn’t pull that one out,” Gentry said of Wyoming’s wild 69-66 loss in triple overtime.

To Gentry, winning is everything, but his performance still was an example of what he could be for a first-round arm.

Allen is widely considered one of the top quarterbacks for the 2018 NFL

lot of great things. He has a great arm.

From the highlights I’ve seen, he looks like a big, strong quarterback. I’m excited to get to work with him.”

The Bears are excited about Gentry, too. He highlights their list of undrafted free-agent signees – a group of players that shouldn’t be overlooked under general manager Ryan Pace and coach John Fox. Gentry signed with the Bears over a few AFC teams.

Receiver Cam Meredith, tight end Ben Braunecker, cornerback Bryce Callahan and linebackers Jonathan Anderson and John Timu are among the Bears’ undrafted signees to start and play in the past two years. Safety Harold Jones-Quartey and cornerback Cre’Von LeBlanc are undrafted waiver-wire additions who also have played extensively.

AP file photo “This weekend, (I want to) show I Wyoming receiver Tanner Gentry, who can just make plays on the ball,” said was signed by the Bears, catches a pass Gentry, who had 72 catches for 1,326 over UNLV’s Darius Mouton before Gentry yards and 14 touchdowns last season at scored a touchdown Nov. 12 in Las Vegas. Wyoming.

“Even if it’s not the best throw, it’s draft. Some pundits already have building that confidence (with Trupegged him as possibly the first overall bisky) that I’m going to come down selection. with it and just compete for the ball.”

Starting Friday at the Bears’ rookie At 6-foot-2 and 210 pounds, Gentry minicamp, Gentry’s work begins with has the size to compete. At his pro day, quarterback Mitch Trubisky, the he was timed in the 40-yard dash in the second overall pick this year and the 4.4-second range. He also has a 38-inch future of the franchise. vertical jump, which would have been “I know that he’s a great player,” the fourth-best mark at the NFL scoutGentry said. “He can obviously do a ing combine.

Having excelled in Wyoming’s offense, which has pro-style characteristics, will help Gentry’s transition.

Unlike many other rookies, Gentry has experience running all routes. He lined up at all receiver spots and knows how to gain separation on play-action plays.

According to Pro Football Focus’ analysis, Gentry had 49 deep targets (throws of 20 yards or more through the air) to lead all college receivers in 2016.

“I try to do everything,” Gentry said. “I try to stay creative with my routes.”

Gentry also has the underdog, chip-on-my-shoulder personality that Pace and Fox search for and covet in players. He was a two-star recruit with two scholarship offers who developed into a star at Wyoming.

“I played a little upset about that,” Gentry said. “Going undrafted is definitely adding more fuel to the fire. I’m excited to go prove that I belong to play in the league.”

It starts with connecting with Trubisky as he did with Allen.

“I consider him one of the best friends that I have,” Gentry said. “We built a great relationship. A lot of that started by what we were able to do on the field together.”

INDYCAR

Changing of guard in works at 101st Indianapolis 500

By MICHAEL MAROT The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS – Indianapolis Motor Speedway President Doug Boles walks a fine line each May. Like many longtime Indianapolis 500 fans, Boles reveres the history of the race. As a promoter, he also understands the series needs new blood to expand the fan base and help the 500 keep its title as the world’s largest single-day sporting event.

So as the 2.5-mile oval revs up for its second century of racing, it may be the perfect moment to transition from familiar fan favorites to the next generation of winners.

“What makes this place special is the history and the tradition. But what will make it better going into the future are the future winners and a lot of them are young,” Boles said last week. “The young drivers are our future.”

There are plenty of reasons to catch

the new wave.

Alexander Rossi, 25, is trying to become the first American to win back-toback 500s since Al Unser in 1970-71.

At age 26, American Josef Newgarden might have his best shot at reaching victory lane. He’s coming off a career-best finish of fourth in the points in 2016 and has teamed up with three-time 500 Fernando champion Helio Cas- Alonso troneves, defending series champion Simon Pagenaud and 2015 Indy pole winner Will Power on Roger Penske’s powerful team. Newgarden already has won at Birmingham this season.

James Hinchcliffe gained some new fans from his offseason appearance on “Dancing With The Stars” but would prefer to complete his comeback from a life-threatening injury two years ago

with a win at the Brickyard.

Marco Andretti will again try to break the family’s Indy curse. His father and team owner, Michael, led more laps than any other non-winner of the race. The 30-year-old’s grandfather, Mario, won once in 29 starts, in 1969.

Graham Rahal has two top-five finishes in nine Indy starts, and a victory would allow the 28-year-old to join Unser and Al Unser Jr. as the only father-son winners of the race. Rahal’s father and team owner, Bobby, won in 1986.

Even the 32-year-old Pagenaud, the current points leader, is a relatively new face to IndyCar fans. He’s only had five full seasons in the circuit and will try to defend s IndyCar Grand Prix title in Saturday’s race.

Boles has his own personal connection with his 25-year-old stepson, Conor Daly, trying to make his fourth straight 500 start.

It’s a crucial month for the IndyCar

Series, one that could signal a changing of the guard.

“It could be,” Boles said. “It’s the young drivers that connect you to race fans. But it’s a fine line to walk.”

Race organizers found the perfect solution to re-create the energy surrounding the 100th race – adding twotime Formula One champion Fernando Alonso to the lineup for No. 101. Alonso passed his rookie test last week then returned to his native Spain, where he is scheduled to race this weekend in F1.

When the 2.5-mile oval opens for practice Monday, Alonso will be back in town, chasing the second jewel in racing’s triple crown. He can’t wait.

“I remember coming here, I think it was 2004, the first year that I raced here, and, yeah, I was taking pictures of the entrance for the Speedway. You know capital of the world, motorsport,” Alonso said. “So it’s a special place for motorsport in general. To race here in May on the Indy 500, it feels quite a big thing.”

Put a paddle in my hand on a pretty body of water and I’m a happy man. It is, I think, one of the best ways to get close to nature, get in touch with nature and explore areas that you wouldn’t be able to get to with any other mode of transportation.”

– Andy Talley, education program coordinator for the McHenry County Conservation District

Avid paddlers already know what McHenry County’s waters have to offer.

But those who don’t – or those aching to put a paddle in their hands – are encouraged to attend Paddle in the Park.

The ninth annual event, hosted by the McHenry County Conservation District, aims to showcase the area’s various forms of paddle sports available with demonstrations and clinics. It will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 13 at Lake Atwood within The Hollows Conservation Area, 3804 Route 14 in Cary.

“It is an opportunity for people to come out and test paddle a variety of boats, canoes, kayaks, various styles of kayaks, standup paddle boards,” said Andy Talley, MCCD’s education program coordinator. The standup paddle boards seem to be the hottest trend these days, he said.

For the first time this year, the event

will include a dragon boat to try out.

Popular at festivals, including a Dragon Boat Racing event at St. Charles’ Festival of the Fox (slated for June 8-11 this year), dragon boats typically are longer and narrower. They originated in China.

“A dragon boat will often hold about 20 paddlers,” Talley said. “We have one person that’s up front and giving commands. Sometimes, they even include a drummer that keeps the beat for everyone to paddle together.”

At this weekend’s event, musician and canoe enthusiast Jerry Vandiver will be there to entertain, as well.

Admission is free, but for $5 a person visitors can take part in instructional clinics (noon and 1 p.m.) and test water crafts.

And test, they should, said Talley, who prefers a paddle over a steering wheel.

“My canoe and kayak are my favorite modes of transportation,” he said.

“Put a paddle in my hand on a pretty body of water and I’m a happy man. It is,

WHEN: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 13 WHERE: The Hollows Conservation Area, 3804 Route 14, Cary COST & INFO: Hosted by McHenry County Conservation District.

I think, one of the best ways to get close to nature, get in touch with nature and explore areas that you wouldn’t be able to get to with any other mode of transportation.”

Along with the 22-acre Lake Atwood, the conservation district has canoe and kayak access at Nippersink Creek, with its shallow and calm waters as the largest tributary to the Fox River. There are four canoe launches along Nippersink Creek Canoe Trail – Keystone Road Landing and Pioneer Road Landing in Richmond and Lyle C. Thomas Memorial Park and Nippersink Canoe Base in Spring Grove.

Pet of the Week IMPSTER 9 1/2 YEAR OLD FEMALE GRAY AND WHITE DSH Impatient a.k.a. Impster is a great senior cat that was returned to us after 9 years when her guardian became seriously ill and could no longer care for her.

She originally came to us in a litter of kittens with her mother. She was adopted as a kitten and lived with her older guardian all these years. She is a big beautiful girl with bright green eyes. She has a white tip on her tail and white between her eyes and cheeks. Her former guardian always kept her indoors and she always used the litter box. She is good around people but was never exposed to children or other animals. We have found her to have a very sweet disposition and she loves getting attention. She is just hoping to spend another 9 years as a wonderful companion to someone. She is very stressed out at the shelter and is having a hard time adjusting to this new situation she has been put in. Through our Senior to Senior program she would be available for no adoption fee to an approved senior citizen. Please come meet her at Helping Paws located at 2500 Harding Lane, Woodstock, Illinois. 815-338-4400 www.helpingpaws.net

‘Best job in the world’

‘3 Blonde Moms’ bring cul-de-sac humor to CL Raue

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

If the laughs aren’t enough this Mother’s Day weekend, “3 Bonde Moms” are giving away bras, too.

The PG-13 comedy show featuring “three unlikely friends in the culde-sac” returns to the Raue Center for the Arts in Crystal Lake for the eighth time at 8 p.m. May 13. Tickets start at $31 at www.rauecenter.org or 815-356-9212.

By now, these moms have quite a following around here.

“I’m going to say it’s one of our favorite places to go,” said Joanie Fagan, who created “3 Blonde Moms” 14 years ago when social media didn’t really exist. She promoted her show one mom at a time by winning over the “alpha mom” and going from there.

“I have friends now for the last decade that I met at the Raue Center after the show,” she said. “It’s always fun.”

Fagan is the “perky mom” of the group and has performed with Beaumont Bacon – the “feisty mom” – for about nine years. Joining them for the first time will be comedian Kristin Anderson – the “snarky mom.”

Other blonde moms have rotated in and out of the cast through the years, while Fagan, also the show’s producer, has remained.

“I’m about to rotate myself out before somebody suggests I rotate myself out,” she said with a laugh.

“I’m kind of the Martha Stewart– wannabe of the show, and it seems to be timeless. We all know that mom, that perfectionist that wants to be perfect, do everything right, but can’t seem to leave the house without the Vel-cro rollers in her head.”

Fagan – who played Faith on “The Drew Carey Show” and has hosted “The Joanie Show!”, Game Show Network’s “The Real Live Game Show” and ABC’s “Why Didn’t I Think of that?” – created “3 Blonde Moms” upon noticing how much the audience enjoyed mom humor in her stand-up routines.

She sought out three very different mothers to represent all spectrums of motherhood. Moving from comedy clubs to theaters drew crowds, she said.

“Right out of the gate, the show was selling out in advance,” she said.

“We were selling out just based on the concept. … I just find motherhood to be this amazing group of people. We just have that common bond.”

Although her daughter recently turned 16, she still tells stories about

“3 BLONDE MOMS” WHEN: 8 to 10 p.m. May 13 WHERE: Raue Center for the Arts, 26 N. Williams St., Crystal Lake COST & INFO: A national hit starring some really desperate housewives from television, stage and screen. Join Beaumont Bacon, Kristin Anderson and Joanie Fagan (above) – three completely different moms from the cul de sac who present the pleasures and disasters of motherhood.

This semi-scripted PG-13 stand-up comedy show is full of material about being a mom, having a mom, kids, schools, husbands, neighbors, in-laws and more. Tickets start at $31. Information: 815-356-9212 or http:// rauecenter.ticketforce.com. the baby years, but her routine remains fresh as new material arises daily. She talks about everything from the early sleep deprivation to hearing voices on the baby monitor to the PTA school years to play dates to trying to get along with other moms at birthday parties to teenage driving.

“Just when you get used to something, it seems to change all of a sudden,” she

said of the phases of parenthood.

“You have to go along with the ride, and it’s so fun and there are surprises.

It’s the best job in the world. … We tell our stories that are hysterical and people are identifying and thinking, ‘Yeah, I thought I was the only one who went through that. I totally needed that.’ If we can laugh about things it makes the journey so much better.”

Even after performing with Bacon for nearly a decade, Fagan said she still laughs hysterically at her routine.

After an intro video, each of the mom comedians do their own thing on stage.

Bacon talks about trying to re-date her husband after passing through the “Mom, mom, mom!” and “Who’s that guy in that other room?” phase, among other stories. And Anderson has stories about trying to protect her teenage boys from girls.

After the show, they like to do giveaways, including a Rollermax foam exercise roller and Ahh Bras.

“I have kind of a motto. We have to take care of ourselves so we can take care of everyone else,” Fagan said.

“It’s just really great to go out and laugh and have fun and get a fresh look at things.”

“MY FAIR LADY”

Lyric Opera’s ‘My Fair Lady’ provides one enjoyable evening REVIEWS Paul Lockwood It’s hard to believe it was 60 years ago the Lerner and Loewe musical “My Fair Lady” received 10 Tony Award nominations, ultimately receiving six Tonys, including Best Musical.

But it isn’t hard to imagine “My Fair Lady” still holds up as a wonderful night at the theater, especially when you see the sumptuous Lyric Opera of Chicago American premiere.

From both a quantity and quality standpoint, this is the show you take family to if you want to expose them to a classic they’ll remember in years to come.

The quantity aspect is evident when you consider the statistics: 56 cast members, 14 dancers, more than 280 costumes, 37 orchestra musicians and 26 musical numbers. The deep stage at the Civic Opera House in the Loop is huge, allowing plenty of room for that large cast and giant sets.

For those who’ve somehow missed seeing the stage musical, the Rex Harrison/Audrey Hepburn film or “Pygmalion,” the George Bernard Shaw play from which it was adapted, I’ll give a brief synopsis. We open on a cold 1912 night in London. Eliza Doolittle (played

by Lisa O’Hare) is a Cockney flower girl accidentally knocked down by an

exiting opera patron, Freddy EynsfordHill (Bryce Pinkham). Understandably upset, Eliza is more agitated when she finds her words are being transcribed by another man, Henry Higgins (Richard E. Grant), a phonetics professor and confirmed bachelor (“Let a woman in your life and you invite eternal strife” is one of his later lyrics). When Higgins encounters a fellow linguist he’s long admired, Colonel Pickering (Nicholas Le Prevost), Higgins boasts with his language skills, he could transform this “guttersnipe” (Eliza) into an upper-class lady within six months.

Since Eliza wants to better herself and her lot in life, she shows up at Higgins’ doorstep the next day, ready to learn. Pickering reminds Higgins of his boast, the two men place a bet and the extreme makeover of Eliza gets underway – with Freddy, Pickering, Higgins’ staff and even Higgins ultimately caring about her as a person. A humorous subplot involves Eliza’s father, Alfred (Donald Maxwell), a man always seeking money for alcohol who differs from his daughter in several ways, including the fact he does not want to change his lot in life.

The actors in the principal roles have been well cast. O’Hare, who’s played Eliza on U.S. and U.K. tours of the show, has a beautiful singing voice throughout. With her Eliza transformation from accent to manners to clothing to personality, she’s able to give us a rags-to-riches heroine the audience loves. Grant primarily is known for his film and television work, but, here,

Grant shows us an intellectual snob whose heart initially is no bigger than the Grinch’s. I had wondered if Grant would “talk-sing” the lyrics of his songs the way Rex Harrison did many decades back. Grant does, but I thought it an excellent decision he lets down his guard a bit in the last solo, “I’ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face.” The proportion of the song he actually sings is larger at that point.

The sets designed by Tim Hatley are impressive, especially the tenement section of London where Alfred, his buddies and others sell their wares and spend their idle time and the beautiful two-level, books-galore study at Higgins’ home in which characters can move between the levels by staircase or ladder, as appropriate.

The music includes a number of fun songs (“Get Me to the Church on Time,” “A Hymn to Him,” “Why Can’t the English?”) and songs of longing that let you into the heart and mind of the lovelorn Freddy (“On the Street Where You Live”), hopeful Eliza (“Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?” and “I Could Have Danced All Night”) and ultimately flustered Higgins (the aforementioned “I’ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face”). Kudos to conductor David Chase and his talented orchestra.

I also must applaud costume designer Anthony Powell and assistant costume designer Frédéric Llinares.

The outfits, especially those worn by Eliza at the Ascot Racecourse and the Embassy Ball, were stunning.

At press night, I only had a few

Maxwell’s diction in Alfred’s first number (“With a Little Bit of Luck”) was a bit lacking, frustrating my attempt to fully enjoy the song. The microphones for multiple characters in Act I, Scene 9, seemed to be turned on late, resulting in missed words.

Finally, the ending of the musical typically makes you wonder what happens next, but I was disappointed director Olivier Fredj included some actions that left little question of the decision Eliza reached.

With a total running time of almost 3 hours, “My Fair Lady” is not for those with short attention spans, but it should be renamed “My Great Lady,” because – to paraphrase one memorable song – I could have watched all night.

A ‘feel-good’ kind of show ‘She Loves Me’ at Marriott may not be groundbreaking, but is good for a date night REVIEWS

Alex Goodrich and Elizabeth Telford star in “She Loves Me” at Marriott Theatre.

Photo provided courtesy of Justin Barbin

Matt Fraser For the fan of more traditional theater, Marriott Theatre’s latest production of “She Loves Me” will be right up your alley.

This musical, while, in this reviewer’s mind, is no longer a groundbreaking piece of theater, is a fun, good night out that will leave audiences rooting for a happy ending, and it serves as the perfect date night with your sweetie.

The show opens in a 1930s Hungarian perfume shop owned by Mr. Maraczek and follows the story of his assistant manager, Georg Nowack, who has been exchanging anonymous love letters with a woman he knows simply as “dear friend.”

The shelves are being stocked with a new musical cigarette box Mr. Maraczek insists will be quite easy to sell. Enter Amalia Baslash, a woman we later learn also is corresponding with a man she knows as “dear friend,” who looks to acquire a job at the perfumery.

When Nowack tells her they are not hiring, she insists on speaking to Mr. Maraczek. In desperation, she sells one musical cigarette box to a customer and is hired on the spot.

Later, despite the fact the two drive each other insane, we learn the true identity of each of their “dear friends” – each other.

The feel-good, upbeat plot will be just what some theater patrons are looking for in a night out. However, this same plot will be a drawback to the more contemporary theater patron who is looking for more than entertainment when attending a performance.

This drawback will be overcome if you allow yourself to be drawn in by the smarmy and witty humor exhibited by the characters.

The story relies heavily on casting. You must be able to root for the characters in order to like the show, and Marriot Theatre’s Lead

Artistic Director Aaron Thielen has cast this show superbly. The entire cast, led by Alex Goodrich and Elizabeth Telford, provide wonderfully strong performances and possesses deeply strong chemistry with one another.

The score is pleasant to listen to and fits very well with the time period and location in which the story is set, and, again, brings to mind the classic scorewriters of the era. It also helps to smooth out scene transitions, which rely heavily on blackouts, so as not to lose momentum. Again, however, this same pleasantness may be a drawback to a contemporary musical fan that looks to be challenged by the performance they attend.

The set is eye catching from the

moment you set foot in the theater.

It is very well done for the space and fades into the background as you’re drawn into the story. It is blocked well enough so as to not take the audience out of the action for more than a moment.

Go see this show if you’re looking for a feel-good, fun night out.

However, if you’re looking for something that will make you feel like a different person once you’ve left the theater, this may not be the show for you.

Ritchie reinvents ‘King Arthur’ to mixed results

MORE ONLINE

The new movie “Snatched” also is scheduled for release Friday, but a review was not made available in time for publication. Find more reviews online at NWHerald.com.

By LINDSEY BAHR The Associated Press

Deep into Guy Ritchie’s “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword,” a bad guy who we’ve never met before informs Arthur (Charlie Hunnam) and his mates they’d better be at the castle before dark if they want to see “the boy” and “the girl” again. It’s one of those harmless, up the stakes clichés that’s all too common in action movies, but, in the flawed yet amusing “King Arthur,” it unwittingly left me baffled. “Which girl?” I wondered, sincerely doubting this was the intended effect.

At this point, there are two options: The Mage (Astrid Berges-Frisbey), a strange animal-controlling sorceress who we recently saw with a knife at her throat, or Maggie (Annabelle Wallis), who over the course of the movie is so underdeveloped that at different points I’d thought she was Arthur’s presumedto-be dead mother (who is in fact played by the just similar enough-looking Poppy Delevingne) or the evil King Vortigern’s (Jude Law) wife. (She’s neither.)

It’s a strange thing for a movie that is this packed to the brim with dialogue and clever exposition to have managed to so insufficiently explain a supposed key player. The film is somehow both overwritten and underwritten.

It’s a stretch to even deem it a King Arthur movie (marketing calls it an “iconoclastic take on the classic Excalibur myth,” while a producer says it’s “not your father’s King Arthur.”)

And yet, “King Arthur: Legend of the

This image released by Warner Bros. Pictures shows Charlie Hunnam in a scene from “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.”

“KING ARTHUR: LEGEND OF THE SWORD” STARRING: Charlie Hunnam, Astrid BergèsFrisbey, Jude Law

PLOT: Robbed of his birthright, Arthur comes

up the hard way in the back alleys of the city.

But once he pulls the sword from the stone, he is forced to acknowledge his true legacy – whether he likes it or not.

RATED: PG-13 for sequences of violence and action, some suggestive content and brief strong language RUNNING TIME: 2 hours, 6 minutes Sword,” is reasonably entertaining with its CGI-laden summer nonsense, stuffed with mystical beasts (including giant elephant-like creatures with wrecking ball tails), vulgar action and delicious scenery chewing from Law. It skates by on Ritchie’s divisively kinetic filmmaking and the charisma of Hunnam’s reluctant hero.

This Arthur was raised in a brothel after seeing his mother and father, King Uther (Eric Bana), killed in a coup. A speed-induced montage later and Arthur is a fully grown and martial arts-trained man who is a street-wise protector of the brothel’s prostitutes. His Uncle Vortigern, who sold his soul to get the crown, rules Camelot. But Vortigern can’t access his full powers without the Excalibur sword, which, as you know, is stuck in a rock. This leads Vortigern’s soldiers to round up every man of Arthur’s age to find the remaining heir.

Hunnam’s Arthur is a wise-cracking, sensitive brute, who neither seeks nor wants power of any kind. What he does want is never really explored beyond the fact he cares about his friends and feels some sort of obligation to protect the weak. But he eventually gets on board with his birthright – partly to avenge his father’s death and partly because a group of outlaws, including The Mage, Bedivere (Djimon Hounsou) and Bill (Aidan Gillen), sort of make him do it.

An Arthur for the millennial generation perhaps?

Indeed, Ritchie’s “King Arthur” seems specifically designed to appeal to the “Game of Thrones” crowd (though mercifully with some hope infused into the core of the story) and definitely not to anyone who has any deep reverence for the classic tale. If that’s a compromise you’re willing to make, there are some genuinely compelling and innovative sequences of the action and dialogue variety (and a jarring David Beckham cameo).

The film falls apart in the final showdown, however, when Ritchie gives himself over to the CGI gods to craft a mind-numbing duel that looks so much like a video game, it would be easy to forget you’re still watching “King Arthur.”

Despite a shameless non-ending that hints at sequel possibilities, this is not a film that is likely to stick with you even past the movie theater parking lot. Like Arthur, you’ll be happy you got out alive and relatively unscathed.

Familiar faces turn up in summer kids movies

By CHRISTINA BARRON The Washington Post

If there’s a big-screen character you liked a few years ago, chances are that person is back for this summer of sequels. “Wimpy Kid” Greg Heffley can’t escape embarrassment in “The Long Haul.” The web-slinging superhero returns – but younger this time – for “Spider-Man: Homecoming.” And Jack Sparrow still is alive for the fifth “Pirates of the Caribbean” film, “Dead Men Tell No Tales.”

With so many sequels – and a few new kids movies – we had to narrow our list of recommendations. We’ve picked a half-dozen that offer action, laughs and maybe a bit of drama.

“Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul”

(Opens May 19, rated PG) There’s more summer adventures for Greg, the awkward middle-schooler with the cringe-worthy family. The Heffleys are on a road trip to Grandma’s 90th birthday, but Greg and big brother Rodrick are plotting to go to a nearby video-game conference.

Not all goes as planned.

“Caption Underpants” Julne 2

“Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie”

(June 2, PG) Twenty years after Dav Pilkey published the first in his series of hugely popular books, the captain stars in an animated movie. In it, comics-loving pranksters Harold Hutchins and George Beard hypnotize their mean principal and make him think he’s a superhero they invented. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have superpowers to go with his super (strange) get-up.

“Wonder Woman”

(June 2, PG-13) Score one for girl power: DC Comics’ warrior princess finally gets a title role. The story has an American pilot crash-landing near the isolated island where Diana is part of a tribe of Amazon women. The pilot tells her the outside world is fighting “the war to end all wars.” She heads to London to put an end to World War I.

“Spider-Man: Homecoming”

(July 7, not yet rated) Comics action continues with the return of Spider-Man, who has to balance web-slinging with the challenging classes at his STEM high school.

(That’s science, technology, engineering and math, of course.) Will he be able to defeat the evil Vulture and still ace his finals?

“The Emoji Movie”

(July 28, not yet rated) Imagine “The Secret Life of Pets,” but with the tiny digital images. The little guys are leading busy lives in the city of Textopolis. One, named Gene, isn’t like the others, who express just one emotion. Gene wants a single facial expression, so he and two emoji friends travel through phone apps to find the code to fix him.

“Leap!”

(August 30, PG) Félicie, a French orphan, hopes to be a ballerina one day. She teams up with a fellow orphan, Victor, and escapes their small town for Paris. Félicie gets into the famous Paris Opera Ballet School by pretending to be someone else. But her dreams and talent take her only so far. Victor, who has his own dreams, and an unlikely mentor encourage her not to give up.

“UPSTAGED” PREMIERE

Web series filmed at Opera House to premiere at Woodstock Theatre

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

A web series filmed at the Woodstock Opera House will make its bigscreen premiere at Classic Cinemas Woodstock Theatre.

The first three roughly 20-minute episodes – about an hour’s worth of film – of “Upstaged – The Series” will be shown at 7:30 p.m. May 17 at the Woodstock Theatre, 209 Main St., Woodstock.

Tickets cost $15 at the door or https://upstaged.yapsody.com/event/ index/89261/upstaged-premiere-episodes-1-3. Seating is limited.

Created by Jeff Cook’s Film Stripped Productions, the series is both a tribute to community theater and the Woodstock Opera House, as well as the city of Woodstock, said Cook of Crystal Lake.

Created, written and directed by Cook and filmed inside the Opera House and on the Woodstock Square, “Upstaged” features the staff of a small community theater played by area actors.

The first three episodes tell a complete story, Cook said, and he’s hoping audiences love the characters and root for them – and the series itself – to succeed.

“It’s just kind of a way to build awareness about the series, do something special,” Cook said of the premiere. “This is a pretty cool little showcase of the Woodstock Opera House and the city of Woodstock and other places where we filmed.”

The workplace comedy is described as a story about theater, friendship and families – “the ones we choose, the ones we’re born into and the ones we have thrust upon us!”

Cook calls it a kind of “throwback comedy.”

“It’s the kind of comedy where the people actually like each other,” he said. “So much in comedy sitcoms is insulting each other for 30 minutes.

We wanted to make a comedy where people actually like each other and they’re like family. They fight, but underneath the current is always love.”

Cook has filmed six episodes of “Upstaged” so far, with plans to film episodes 7 and 8 at the beginning of summer. From a writing standpoint, he’s working on episode 11.

The goal is to have the first season’s 13 episodes filmed by the end of the fall. The first two episodes already are available on an Upstaged – The Series YouTube channel, while the third episode will make its debut at the May

When the first season is completed, Cook would love to see the series picked up by an online streaming service. He’s hoping a service, such as Hulu or Amazon, will provide funding to film Season 2 in return for the rights to stream it.

“It’s been a lot of people giving their time and talent and energy for no other reason than they believe in it and they believe in me and my wife Karen [the executive producer] and my producing partner Joel Bennett,” Cook said.

“It’s really been gratifying to see how people are excited about it and worked together to create something no one else has created.”

HOMES

6 steps to grow a garden anywhere (BPT) - The benefits from gardening are endless - relaxation, fitness, family fun, delicious food and beautifying your lawn. Across the country, millions of people live in townhomes, apartments or singlefamily homes that seem to lack the outdoor space needed for a conventional garden. But the good news is that no matter where you live you can still create a garden that reflects your goals and is uniquely personal to you.

Raised bed gardens may be the perfect solution. This type of gardening is gaining popularity not only because it can be adjusted to fit any size requirements, but because it is prone to fewer weeds, reduced soil erosion and fewer soil challenges that can arise in areas where the ground is inherently sandy or clay-based.

Raised bed gardens also offer you

the opportunity to customize your garden bed with beautiful accents and decorations that will make it look as amazing as the food it produces.

Steps for growing veggies and herbs in a raised garden bed Step 1: Prep your space. Raised garden beds can be bought or built to fill whatever space you have available. Select a bed that works well with your space and prepare accordingly.

Step 2: Choose your soil. Once you have your empty bed ready, choose your soil. Nature’s Care Raised Bed Soil is ideal as this soil is specifically formulated with rich organic matter and high-quality nutrients that help give your plants the benefits they need with no mixing required. Once you add the soil, be sure to rake it so

it is smooth and level.

Step 3: Preparing your bed. Next, you can finalize what you want to plant. Spacing is essential here and you want to remember to place your plants close together for maximum yield. Bonnie Plants provides a number of delicious and colorful options, including basil, tomato,

kale, hot peppers and more. Check out your local plant nurseries for a variety of Bonnie Plants to choose from.

Step 4: Planting. Since plant spacing varies by plant type, read the back of the plant tag for proper plant spacing.

Continued from the previous page Step 5: Feed your plants. Once your veggies and herbs are planted, apply a fertilizer such as Nature’s Care Organic & Natural Raised Bed Plant Food to add essential nutrients to the soil and help your plants grow big and strong. Simply sprinkle and work into the soil, then treat your plants to water.

Just like us, plants get hungry, so make sure you follow the directions on the label to determine when to reapply.

Step 6: Harvest. When your vegetables are ripe, it’s time to harvest. All you need to do is rinse and then you are ready to enjoy your favorite recipe.

Email resume: tvlplu@aol.com

J.K. Rowling, in her Harvard Commencement Address in 2008, said, “It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well have not lived at all. In which case, you’ve failed by default.”

In today’s deal, look first at the East hand. With both sides vulnerable, the dealer on your right opens one spade. Would you pass, make a takeout double or overcall one notrump?

Then look at the North hand.

With the opponents maintaining a respectful silence, you open one spade, and partner responds one forcing no-trump, showing 6-12 points. (He will have three spades only with 10-12 points.) What would you rebid?

This deal was played 16 times at Bridge Base Online. Surprisingly, no East, human or robot, entered the auction, which was a losing pass here because East-West were cold for five hearts. (If you do bid, I think one notrump is better than double. I dislike takeout doubles with 4-3-3-3 shape.)

At numerous tables, North rebid two spades, and South continued with three diamonds, which ended the auction.

One North, who requested anonymity, did not like the quality of his spade suit, so rebid two clubs, which promised only three cards in the suit, but then his hand would normally have had 5=2=3=3 or 5=3=2=3 distribution. After South rebid two diamonds, North kept up his good work by passing -- and getting the only North-South plus score!

The play was not testing. South lost one spade, one heart, one diamond and two clubs. The seventh diamond was protection against being tapped in hearts.
