Good morning, McHenry County ...

What’s the story with incomplete stories? Whether you do it rightly, wrongly, expertly or with a tinge of mediocrity, you field a fair amount of complaints in journalism. Thinskinned? You’ll go mad by lunchtime. All complaints have varying degrees of validity. You can’t ignore them. You should learn something and address when appropriate. An opportunity to create more understanding is one of the best opportunities you can get. One fairly common complaint is some version of: “That’s not the whole story.” And that complaint is always right. No version of any story is the whole story, kind of like the story your teenager tells you about where that dent in the Ford Explorer came from. But sometimes it might be the only version you’re going to get. Here’s a pretty big hint on when you’re not going to get a good deal of the story: Person A has a big complaint with another person, institution, business, says X. Person, Institution, Business A says, “No comment” or would not return phone calls seeking comment – something along those lines. We know there’s more to every story. And we try to get as much detail as we can, but we

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Kevin Lyons aren’t allowed to waterboard and don’t even have subpoena power, so it’s harder than it looks. But just because one side won’t talk (and sometimes has good reason why they shouldn’t) doesn’t mean a complaint isn’t newsworthy. That’s a tricky balancing act that requires shrewd but imperfect human judgment. The best you can hope for is that sources, documents, sometimes even photos or videos offer you the clearest version of an event that you could hope for. And that’s the rest of the story about stories. Of course ... there’s always more.

people recognizing the areas where sediment is high. It’s not only an environmental hazard, but a hazard to boaters.” The sediment builds up as soil and other debris runs off nearby land, such as the islands throughout the water system and nearby farms. The agency is charged with the task of removing the debris in part to clear the way for boaters. But aging equipment, decreased manpower and no space to process the material makes it a challenge to keep up, Keller said. “We have to transfer it many miles from the system,” he said. “And that’s not very cost effective in terms of trucking, not to mention the environmental impact.” An affirmative vote in November on State Bill 2632 could ease the dredging problem by allowing the Department of Natural Resources to sell the agency land – for $1 – to process its dredged material on, effective immediately. “That would be an extremely significant piece of legislation that would benefit all parties,” Keller said. “It would go a long way.” Despite the agency’s challenges, the future is bright, board member Phil Bartmann said. One plan in the works is to restore a 27-acre island that has been sinking into the system. “We plan to bring it back to its former glory,” he said. “We’re getting close with the permitting and that will go a long way to help up clear the Governor Channel and the channels connected to it.” The warm temperatures and relatively dry summer meant the McHenry County Sheriff Department’s Marine Unit saw more boaters in general this season.

The weather cooperated this season and a mild winter made for better days on the Chain O’ Lakes as well. “We considered this year to be pretty busy,” Marvin said. “Typically, we’d have no-wake periods because of flooding from excess rain in the spring or water from thawing snow, but we didn’t experience that this year. … People could get out with no restrictions pretty early.”

Far-right activist Phyllis Schlafly dies By JIM SALTER

The Associated Press ST. LOUIS – Phyllis Schlafly, the outspoken conservative activist who helped defeat the Equal Rights Amendment in the 1970s and founded the Eagle Forum political group, has died. She was 92. Schlafly’s family was with her when she died Monday afternoon of cancer at her home in St. Louis, her son John Schlafly said. Funeral arrangements are pending, he said. Schlafly rose to national attention in 1964 with her self-published book, “A Choice Not an Echo,” that became a manifesto for the far right. The book, which sold 3 million copies, chronicled the history of the Republican National Convention and is credited for helping conservative Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona earn the 1964 GOP nomination. She later helped lead efforts to defeat the proposed constitutional amendment that would have outlawed gender discrimination, galvanizing the party’s right. She’d graduated from college while working overnight at a factory during World War II, her newspaper column appeared in dozens of newspapers and she was politically active into her 90s – including attending every convention since her first in 1952. She attended this year’s convention as a Donald Trump delegate. Yet she told The Associated Press in 2007 that perhaps her greatest legacy was the Eagle Forum, which she founded in 1972 in suburban St. Louis, where she lived. The ultraconservative group has chapters in several states and claims 80,000 members. “I’ve taught literally millions of people how to participate in self-government,” Schlafly said. “I think I’ve built a wonderful organization of volunteers, mostly women but some men, willing

Women opposed to the Equal Rights Amendment sit with Phyllis Schlafly (left), national chairwoman of Stop ERA, at an Aug. 10, 1976, hearing of Republican platform subcommittee on human rights and responsibilities in a free society in Kansas City, Mo. Schlafly, who helped defeat the Equal Rights Amendment in the 1970s and founded the Eagle Forum political group, has died at age 92. The Eagle Forum announced her death Monday. to spend their time to get good laws and good politicians.” The Eagle Forum pushes for low taxes, a strong military and English-only education. The group is against efforts it says are pushed by radical feminists or encroach on U.S. sovereignty, such as guest-worker visas, according to its website, which describes the Equal Rights Amendment as having had a “hidden agenda of tax-funded abortions and same-sex marriages.” The group said in a statement on its website announcing Schlafly’s death that her “focus from her earliest days until her final ones was protecting the family, which she understood as the building block of life.” As momentum grew in the 1970s for the Equal Rights Amendment, Schlafly

became its most outspoken critic – and was vilified by its supporters. She had a pie smashed into her face and pig’s blood thrown on her, and feminist Betty Friedan once told Schlafly, “I’d like to burn you at the stake.” She was chastised in a 1970s “Doonesbury” – a framed copy of which hung on her office wall. “What I am defending is the real rights of women,” Schlafly said at the time. “A woman should have the right to be in the home as a wife and mother.” Thirty-five states ratified the amendment, three short of the necessary 38. Schlafly said amendment supporters couldn’t prove it was needed. “They were never able to show women would get any benefit out of it,” she said in 2007. “It (the U.S. Constitution) is already sex-neutral. Women already

have all the rights that men have.” Saint Louis University history professor Donald Critchlow, who profiled Schlafly in his 2005 book, “Phyllis Schlafly and Grassroots Conservatism: A Woman’s Crusade,” said the defeat of the amendment helped revive conservatism and helped pave the way for Ronald Reagan’s election in 1980. “What the ERA [defeat] did was show the right, and especially Reagan strategists, that a new constituency could be tapped to revitalize the right. It allowed the right to take over the party,” Critchlow said shortly after writing his book. Schlafly was born Aug. 15, 1924, and grew up in Depression-era St. Louis. Her parents were Republican but not politically involved. Her own activism was born partly out of convenience. With the country involved in World War II during her college years, Schlafly worked the graveyard shift at the St. Louis Ordnance Plant. Her job included testing ammunition by firing machine guns. She would get off work at 8 a.m., attend morning classes, then sleep in the middle of the day before doing it all over again. The schedule limited her options for a major. “In order to pick classes to fit my schedule I picked political science,” Schlafly recalled in the 2007 interview. She graduated from Washington University in 1944, when she was 19. Her first taste of real politics came at age 22, when she guided the 1946 campaign of Republican congressional candidate Claude Bakewell, helping him to a major upset win. In 1952, with her young family living in nearby Alton, Illinois, Schlafly’s husband, attorney John Schlafly Jr., was approached about running for Congress. He declined, but she ran and narrowly lost in a predominantly Democratic district. She also ran unsuccessfully for Congress in 1970.

TV’s Wyatt Earp, Hugh O’Brian, has died at 91 By LINDSEY BAHR

The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – Hugh O’Brian, who shot to fame as Sheriff Wyatt Earp in what was hailed as TV’s first adult Western, has died. He was 91. A representative from HOBY, a philanthropic organization O’Brian founded, said he died at home Monday morning in Beverly Hills. Until “The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp” debuted in September 1955, most TV Westerns – “The Lone Ranger,” “Hopalong Cassidy,” the singing cowboys’ series – were aimed at adolescent boys.

“Wyatt Earp,” on the other hand, was based on a real-life Western hero, and some of its stories were authentic. (The real Earp, who lived from 1848 to 1929, Hugh O’Brian is most famous for his participation in the 1881 “Shootout at the O.K. Corral” in Tombstone, Arizona.) Critics quickly praised it, and it made O’Brian a star. “If we were doing Westerns with the chase and the fights that last endlessly, and the sheriff’s daughter in sunbonnet and calico and the Wanted posters

... we wouldn’t reach the audience we reach each week,” O’Brian once said. “Gunsmoke,” which debuted just a few days after “Wyatt Earp,” became an even bigger hit, and by 1956-57, both were in the top 20 shows. In the 195859 season, Westerns accounted for an incredible seven of the top 10 U.S. TV series, including No. 1 “Gunsmoke” and No. 2 “Wagon Train,” with “Wyatt Earp” at No. 10. “Wyatt Earp” remained a Top 20 hit until 1960, but it was canceled the next year after being supplanted by the avalanche of other adult Westerns. O’Brian, meanwhile, continued to work frequently in movies, TV and

theater through the 1990s, although he never again achieved the prominence he enjoyed as Wyatt Earp. He starred in the 1970s detective series “Search” and appeared in such films as “In Harm’s Way” and “Ten Little Indians,” and reprised his role as Earp in 1994’s “Wyatt Earp: Return to Tombstone,” a film that combined new footage with colorized scenes from the original black-and-white TV show. He also had a small but memorable role as the faro dealer in John Wayne’s last film, “The Shootist,” and later noted with pride that it gave him the distinction of being the last bad guy killed by Wayne.

Observers: Monarch count very low this year The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Butterfly observers in Illinois are seeing a phenomenon this year that is playing out nationally: As the monarch starts its near-3,000mile winter migration from Canada to Mexico, their observed numbers are extremely low. Chicago Academy of Sciences chief curator Doug Taron told The Chicago Tribune that the monarch is “the second or third most common species” of butterfly that observers record, but that this year, it’s the “seventh.” Taron said this summer has been “pretty dismal” for butterflies in general in Illinois. Observers typically record 85 species a year, but current reports show 68 this summer. Monarch Joint Venture co-chairwoman Karen Oberhauser said the monarchs’ difficult summer began March 9 in forested mountains near Mexico City, where tens of millions of them spend their winters. An intense storm lashed the area with rain, hail and snow, killing large numbers of the butterflies and inflicting heavy damage to their habitat. Data from Monarch Larva Monitoring Project show the number of butterfly larva this year rivaled the level seen in 2013. That year yielded “the lowest number of monarchs ever seen in Mexico,” a Monarch Joint Venture report stated. Since about 1996, the monarchs’ presence in their Mexico habitat has been shrinking, from almost 45 acres to 9.9 acres recording in 2015, accord-

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Transgender teen at center of bathroom fight

RICHMOND, Va. – College applications and high school graduation are the biggest worries for most 17-year-olds. For Gavin Grimm, it’s waiting for the nation’s highest court to decide whether he can use the boys restroom. Grimm, who was born female but identifies as male, heads back to Gloucester High School for his senior year this week as the U.S. Supreme Court considers whether to intervene in his case that challenges the county school’s policy barring him from using the bathroom of his choice. For now, Grimm will have to continue using a private single-stall restroom or a bathroom in the nurse’s office. The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in April sided with Grimm, but the Supreme Court recently ruled that the school board can keep him out of the boys restroom at least until the justices decide whether to hear the school board’s appeal.

Wave of IS-claimed Syria bombing kill at least 48

BEIRUT – Near-simultaneous bombings claimed by the Islamic State group struck in and around strongholds of the Syrian government and Kurdish troops Monday, killing at least 48 people in a wave of attacks that came a day after the militants lost a vital link to the outside

world along the Syrian-Turkish border. The IS-run Aamaq news agency said the attacks included six suicide bombings and one remotely detonated blast. Most targeted security forces. The Britain-based Observatory, which maintains a network of contacts in Syria, put the overall death toll at 53, although Syrian state TV said 48 were killed. Conflicting casualty figures are common in the 5-year-old Syria civil war. Jennifer Cafarella, a Syria expert with the Washingtonbased Institute for the Study of War, said it was too soon to say whether the attacks by the IS group were a reaction to its recent defeats along the border.

Hermine lingers offshore, brings rough waves

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Hermine twisted hundreds of miles offshore in the Atlantic Ocean on Monday, creating large waves in some southern New England beach waters that lured in surfers despite the rough surf and rip currents that kept most beachgoers away on the last day of the holiday weekend. Hermine’s position Monday southeast of Nantucket created 20-foot waves and wind gusts of up to 31 mph about 55 miles southeast of the island, Buttrick said. Hermine was expected to stall over the water before weakening again.

Obama cancels meeting with Philippine President Duterte By JOSH LEDERMAN and KATHLEEN HENNESSEY The Associated Press

VIENTIANE, Laos – President Barack Obama called off a planned meeting Tuesday with new Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, seeking distance from a U.S. ally’s leader during a diplomatic tour that’s put Obama in close quarters with a cast of contentious world figures. It’s unusual for one president to tell another what to say or not say, and much rarer to call the other a “son of a b****.” Duterte managed to do both just before flying to Laos for a regional summit, warning Obama not to challenge him over extrajudicial killings in the Philippines. “Clearly, he’s a colorful guy,” Obama said. “What I’ve instructed my team to do is talk to their Philippine counterparts to find out is this in fact a time where we can have some constructive, productive conversations.” Early Tuesday, National Security Council spokesman Ned Price said the meeting with Duterte was off. Duterte has been under intense global scrutiny over the more than 2,000 suspected drug dealers and users killed since he took office. Obama had said he planned to raise the issue in his first meeting with Duterte, but the Philippine leader insisted he was only listening to his own country’s people. “You must be respectful,” Duterte said of Obama. “Do not just throw questions.” Using the Tagalog phrase for “son of a b****,” he said, “Putang ina I will swear at you in that forum.” He made the comment to reporters in Manilla. Eager to show he wouldn’t yield, Obama

said he would “undoubtedly” still bring up human rights and due process concerns “if and when” the two do meet. The bizarre rift with the leader of a U.S. treaty ally was the most glaring example of how Obama has frequently found himself bound to foreign countries and leaders whose ties to the U.S. are critical even if their values sharply diverge. In Hangzhou this week, Obama’s first stop in Asia, he heaped praise on Chinese President Xi Jinping for hosting the Group of 20 economic summit in his country, an authoritarian state long accused of human-rights violations. His next stop was another one-party communist country with a dismal rights record: Laos, where mysterious disappearances have fueled concerns about a government crackdown. And sitting down with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Obama made no mention in public of the roughly 35,000 people Erdogan’s government detained after the summer’s failed coup in Turkey. Instead, he worked to reassure the NATO ally the U.S. would help bring to justice whoever was responsible for plotting the coup. Obama also spent about 90 minutes Monday with Russian President Vladimir Putin, another leader whose fate seems intertwined with Obama’s in all the wrong ways. On opposing sides of many global issues, the U.S. and Russia are nonetheless trying to broker a deal to address the Syrian civil war and perhaps even partner militarily there. “President Putin’s less colorful,” Obama said, comparing him with Duterte. “But typically the tone of our meetings is candid, blunt, businesslike.”

Clinton blasts Russia; Trump softens immigration stance By KEN THOMAS and STEVE PEOPLES The Associated Press

CLEVELAND – Setting the stage on Labor Day for a critical month in their testy presidential campaign, Donald Trump softened his stance on immigration while Hillary Clinton blasted Russia for its suspected tampering in the U.S. electoral process. In a rare news conference aboard her new campaign plane, Clinton said she is concerned about “credible reports about Russian government interference in our elections.” “We are going to have to take those threats and attacks seriously,” Clinton told reporters traveling with her from Ohio to Illinois. Clinton’s comments come after reports that the Russian government may have been involved in the hacking of Democratic National Committee emails just days before the party’s national convention. The emails, later

tin-Kremlin line.” Meanwhile, Trump extended a rare invitation to journalists to accompany him on his private plane from Cleveland to Youngstown, Ohio. The billionaire businessman appeared to pivot away from his hard-line position on immigration, saying, “I’m all about jobs now.” Any immigrants who want full

citizenship must return to their countries of origin and get in line, he told reporters – but he would not rule out a pathway to legal status for the millions living in the U.S. illegally, as he did in a long-awaited policy speech last week. “We’re going to make that decision into the future,” Trump said. Clinton powered through a coughing fit at a Labor Day festival at a Cleveland park, sharply criticizing Trump’s recent trip to Mexico as “an embarrassing international incident.” Unwilling to allow Trump to modify his immigration stances, she said his address later that night in Arizona amounted to a “doubling down on his absurd plan to send a deportation force to round up 16 million people.” The two campaigns arrived in Cleveland within hours of each other, underscoring Ohio’s quadrennial role in presidential campaigns. No Republican has won the White House without carrying the state.

CALAIS, France – Truckers, farmers, dock workers and merchants angry at the disruption caused by thousands of migrants in their midst in the northern French city of Calais blocked the main access route to Britain on Monday to press authorities to set the date to raze an overcrowded makeshift camp. The action appeared to pay off and, despite tensions among protesters, blockades were being lifted 12 hours later after the region’s top state official reassured the huge, makeshift camp would be dismantled and funds made available for struggling businesses. The action with several hundred big rigs and tractors on a main access route was the first major protest of its kind in the city, for decades a magnet for migrants trying to cross the English Channel, hopping Britain-bound trucks and trains to get across. Authorities have poured in police – about 2,000 – to guard roadways, and built high barbed-wire fences to protect the Eurotunnel freight trains, the port and highway, but desperate migrants are using increasingly dangerous tactics to slow trucks and hitch a ride.

Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve announced Friday that the government would dismantle the camp “in a controlled operation” as soon as possible, but did not say when. He also promised financial compensation for businesses losing money due to migrants, but gave no details. Representatives of farmers, truckers and merchants came away from a meeting with the state representative of the region, Fabienne Buccio, with a new commitment – but no date – that the camp would be completely dismantled “in a single step.” Buccio also said a special fund to help businesses in need would be actiAP photo vated and more than 230 extra members Truckers block the highway Monday near Calais, France.

ANOTHER VIEW

Put an end to gerrymandering Partisan gerrymandering – the drawing of legislative districts to benefit one political party at the expense of another – is a venerable feature of American politics. It’s also an insidious and anti-democratic practice. Especially with the advent of sophisticated computer programs, districts can be designed so a party can exercise influence in a state legislature or congressional delegation obscenely out of proportion to its overall support – while satisfying the “one-person, one-vote” requirement that districts be roughly the same size. For example, under a redistricting plan approved by North Carolina’s Republican-controlled legislature, that state elected nine Republicans and four Democrats to the U.S. House in 2012 – even though 51 percent of North Carolina voters cast ballots for a Democrat. Another consequence of gerrymandering is a lack of competition between the parties on election day. According to the nonpartisan Cook Political Report, only 56 races for the U.S. House out of 435 contests this year are considered competitive. It’s easy to game the outcome of elections by creating districts that are either “packed” with a surplus of voters of one party or “cracked” so there aren’t enough members of that party to make a competitive election possible. Either way – to borrow a phrase often heard in this year’s presidential campaign – the system of congressional districting in too many states is rigged. But the federal courts, which long have intervened in the drawing of district lines to guard against the abridgment of voting rights on the basis of race, have been skittish about tackling partisan gerrymandering. In 1986, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled partisan gerrymandering could be challenged as unconstitutional if it involved “intentional discrimination against an identifiable political group and an actual discriminatory effect on that group.” Yet in that case the court didn’t actually find such a violation, and in 2004, four justices led by the late Antonin Scalia said the court essentially should stop looking. But as partisan gerrymandering continues to marginalize voters and paralyze the political process, courts have been forced to look at the issue anew. Judicial intervention isn’t the only way to address partisan gerrymandering. For instance, some states, including California, have taken the drawing of congressional districts out of the hands of state legislatures and entrusted them to citizens’ commissions, an option the Supreme Court declared constitutional last year. But, as in other areas, the Supreme Court must be willing to step in where the other branches of government refuse to act. The Los Angeles Times

Not too late to protect planet

To the Editor: The Northwest Herald recently printed a New York Times editorial, “Preparing for next major storm.” The editorial implies that the national response to climate change is “to improve the nation’s defenses. Existing flood protections will need to be improved, building codes made stricter and people dissuaded from living in the areas most vulnerable to floods.” The Times editorial missed the opportunity to advocate for national policies that would effectively reduce CO2 emissions and ward off “increasing frequency of these calamities.” We have delayed for decades the actions required to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels for our energy sources. Yes, we will have to make adaptations for the increase in the earth’s temperature as a result of a century of burning fossil fuels, but there is still time to make future weather events less catastrophic if we take appropriate action to reduce carbon emissions. The best first step is to put a price on

VIEWS Ramesh Ponnuru rates aren’t calculated that way, and most people will get the wrong idea when they hear Johnson say he’s for a 28 percent tax, and when reporters repeat it. And many of the claims for the national sales tax are overblown. In a Republican presidential debate last year, Mike Huckabee promised that pimps, prostitutes and drug dealers would not be able to avoid sales taxes the way they avoid income taxes. Maybe that would be true for the things they buy. But they’re unlikely to charge the sales tax to their customers, so the same transactions that go untaxed now would keep going untaxed. Actually, the underground economy would almost certainly grow much larger as people try to avoid the new sales tax. European countries try to minimize this problem by relying on the value-added tax, levied at each stage of production, rather than using retail sales taxes. (The VAT has other administrative advantages.) But even

carbon. Free market principles tell us that a carbon fee levied at the source of the fossil fuel extraction would reduce use of those fuels and encourage investors to look toward clean sources of energy. Returning that carbon fee to American households would grow the economy without growing the size of government. Congress is no longer debating the reality of climate change. The debate is now on finding climate solutions. Adaptations are going to be required because of our stalling, but it is not too late to protect the planet we know for future generations. Rick Johnson Wonder Lake

A city block

To the Editor: I’m pretty sure everyone has sounded in on the violence in Chicago. We’ve heard from the president, our presidential candidates, as well as all the local and national pundits. Some expressed their sure-fire solutions to the problem like calling out the National Guard,

those countries have lower rates than Johnson is considering. The average VAT rate in the European Union is 22 percent. We should expect much more tax evasion under Johnson’s 39 percent tax. Johnson treats the sales tax as a free lunch. Today’s taxes raise the price of everything, he says. He says that if you got rid of those taxes, a $1 can of Coke would cost 72 cents. Add 28 cents for his new tax, and you’re right back at a dollar. “It’s actually, in theory, not going to add cost to products,” Johnson says. You may be wondering, then, who pays the tax? Good question. The answer is that if the price of everything falls, that has to include the price of labor. So either prices rise and people pay the tax as consumers, or prices stay flat and they pay it as employees. The cost of the tax has to come from somewhere. Senior citizens would be hit hard. If prices go up because of the tax, then any of their savings that aren’t shielded from inflation will fall in value. Future retirees’ Social Security benefits would be lower, too, since those benefits are based on wages, and the tax would reduce the value of those wages.

Johnson says that his 28/39 percent sales tax would raise as much money as the current tax code. If that’s right, then it has to sock the middle class: The poor are mostly protected by the prebate, and rich people come out ahead from the abolition of the progressive income tax. His revenue projections are almost certainly too optimistic, however, because a rate that high would cause so much tax evasion. The best feature of the sales tax is that it would remove the tax code’s bias against saving and investment, meaning we would get more of both. But there are better ways to move in that direction. One would be to keep the income tax but exempt the return to savings from taxation. That would pose problems of its own, of course. But it would avoid the serious administrative problems a national sales tax would involve. And you wouldn’t have to amend the Constitution to get there

Gary Johnson, a former governor of New Mexico, is running for president as the Libertarian Party’s nominee to draw attention to his ideas. One of those ideas is a 28 percent national sales tax to replace the federal income, payroll and corporate taxes. He would repeal the 16th Amendment, which authorized the income tax, to make his plan stick. But the more attention his idea gets, the less attractive it will be. Johnson is advancing a modified version of a proposal called the “FairTax.” That proposal addresses one obvious potential problem with a national sales tax by adding a “prebate” to it: a check from the government to all households that has the effect of exempting the poor from the new tax. But the tax rate is higher than it appears to be. Let’s say Johnson’s tax ideas prevailed, and a Kindle sold for $139 – with $100 going to Amazon and $39 to the new federal sales tax. Advocates of a national sales tax would say that’s a 28 percent tax rate, because 39 is 28 percent of 139. That method makes for a clean comparison to the income-tax rates that the sales tax would replace. (Income tax rates are “tax inclusive,” too, if you stop and think about it.) But state sales tax

His lawyers will ask a suburban Philadelphia judge to suppress testimony from the 2005 lawsuit, when accuser Andrea Constand said she was left semi-conscious and Cosby said he was “not stopped.” And they want to bar jurors from hearing a taped phone call between Cosby and Constand’s mother, when the long-beloved celebrity and morals champion fears he will sound like “a dirty old man with a young girl.” The criminal charges were filed in December, months after Cosby’s testimony in the woman’s lawsuit was unsealed and a new prosecutor reopened the case. Cosby, in the deposition, admitted to a series of extramarital affairs and described giving numerous women drugs and alcohol before what he called romantic “rendezvous.” Some were in their teens or early 20s. Defense lawyers argue that Cosby was promised he would never be charged, so he felt free to testify in Constand’s lawsuit. However, a judge this year found he was never granted immunity. The comedian known as America’s Dad for the top-rated “The Cosby Show” now finds himself spending his time and fortune defending tawdry accusations. Dozens of women who accuse him of similar conduct say his arrest was a long time coming.

Samsung updates smartwatch By ANICK JESDANUN The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Samsung’s next smartwatch will come with GPS capabilities and the ability to call or text for help by triple-tapping a side button. The new Gear S3 retains the circular design of the current S2 model, but is slightly larger. Samsung still will sell last year’s S2 to those who consider the S3 too big on their wrist. As with the S2, the outer ring of the watch face rotates to let you scroll through notifications and apps. Interface improvements include the ability to accept or reject calls with the ring rather than a swipe of the screen. The S3 will come in three flavors. One has LTE cellular capabilities, allowing people to make calls, receive notifications and check weather without a companion phone nearby. A data plan costs extra. The other two models lack LTE and differ primarily in style. Samsung said prices will be announced closer to the devices’ availability later in the year. Samsung announced the new watch lineup Wednesday at the IFA tech show in Berlin. The Gear smartwatches have had impressive designs and battery life, but have been hampered largely by a dearth of apps, as many developers write for Apple Watch and Android Wear devices instead. All three S3 models will have GPS, making them more accurate for workouts. In the S2, GPS was limited to a pricier model with cellular capabilities (on the slower 3G network). GPS, so far, isn’t common in smartwatches, allowing Samsung to stand out with the S3. Although GPS tends to drain battery quickly, Samsung expects at least three days of battery life in the S3. Meanwhile, the emergency-calling feature echoes the “SOS” feature coming to the Apple Watch this fall. Where the Apple Watch will call 911 or the relevant emergency service elsewhere directly, though, the S3 will call or text emergency contacts, such as friends or relatives. These will be pre-recorded or pre-written messages. For an extra recurring fee, which has yet to be announced, S3 users also will be able to make a live call to ADT’s security dispatchers, who would then be able to call 911 or offer other help. The S3 also comes with expanded ability to make payments at stores through Samsung Pay. And the

watch’s always-on feature improves with a display of millions of colors, rather than just 16 before.

Something missing in a laptop

Also at the IFA tech show, Lenovo unveiled a twist on the laptop: Its new Yoga Book won’t have a physical keyboard. It’s an odd choice, given that Apple, Samsung and other tablet makers are pushing professional tablet models with keyboard accessories. Those companies are hoping to appeal to businesses and individuals looking to replace their laptops.

In Lenovo’s case, the 10-inch Yoga Book retains the clamshell design of the laptop but puts a second touch screen where the keyboard normally goes. People can type on a touchscreen keyboard there, or just write or draw on that second screen with an included stylus. You even can use a regular pen or pencil, though you’d want to put a sheet of paper over the screen to avoid damage. Although Lenovo calls Yoga Book a tablet, the keyboard part isn’t detachable, making the device a laptop. The keyboard, though, can fold all the way to the back to make the device

feel more like a tablet. Lenovo says the Yoga Book is 9.6 millimeters (0.38 inch) thick, slightly more than the thickest iPad at 7.5 millimeters. Jeff Meredith, a Lenovo vice president, said the Yoga Book might not be appropriate for extensive typing, but should be suitable for people – especially younger people – who now use the phone’s touch screen to respond to email at night or even take notes in classrooms. He added when BlackBerrys still were popular, people couldn’t imagine getting rid of physical keyboards on their phones, either. The Yoga Book will start shipping in the coming weeks. An Android version will cost $500, and Windows will be $600.

A Case IH Autonomous Concept Vehicle appeared at the Farm Progress Show in Iowa. But this brave new world isn’t without its challenges. The U.S. Justice Department said Wednesday it’s suing Deere to stop the company buying a business it argues would eliminate competition in high-speed planting, a young and developing

segment of farming. While offering efficiencies, technological advances promise to reduce a farmer’s traditional reliance on gut instinct. Some have expressed anxiety about corporations holding onto data gathered from their fields. Lon-

• Tuesday, September 6, 2016

As Detroit car makers and Silicon Valley tech giants vie to bring driverless cars to U.S. roads, one of the world’s largest tractor makers is looking to do the same down on the farm. Case IH, the agricultural-machinery unit of CNH Industrial, this week unveiled a sleek, aggressive-looking red-and-black machine at the annual Farm Progress Show in Boone, Iowa. This tractor – CNH calls it the Autonomous Concept Vehicle – has one obvious difference compared with more conventional models: there’s no cab for a driver. Instead, it comes equipped with cameras, radar and GPS, allowing a farmer to remotely monitor planting and harvesting via an app on a tablet computer, the company’s Brand President Andreas Klauser said in an interview Wednesday as crowds gathered around the machine to snap photographs. Agricultural-machinery companies like Case, Deere &amp; Co. and Agco Corp. are keen to add the latest technology amid growing interest in the use of big data analysis, drones and satellite imaging.

don-based CNH would face headwinds in getting row-crop farmers to adopt its new technology, but it could gain a foothold in horticulture, Ann Duignan, an analyst at JPMorgan Chase in New York, wrote in an Aug. 30 report. Dealing with the legal implications of self-driving tractors is one reason why it could take three years before they’re commercially available, Klauser said. An example he gave is how a farmer would go about moving the tractor from one field to another that may be across a road, since no one is physically driving it. He declined to disclose how much it has cost to build the tractor on display in Iowa, or how much such a machine might sell for, if it ever moves beyond the concept stage. Case will analyze farmer feedback on its prototype. The 419-horsepower machine has a maximum speed of 31 mph, according to Case. That’s much bigger in scale and power than other autonomous concepts, said Sara Olson, a Boston-based analyst at Lux Research who studies farm technology. “You’re not doing it just to be a novelty,” Klauser said. “You’re doing it to increase the efficiency for your customers.”

‘Feel good’ foods reduce anxiety Dear Dr. K: I suffer from anxiety but would rather not take medication. I already exercise and practice relaxation therapy. Could dietary changes help further quell my worries? Dear Reader: To help answer your question, I turned to my colleague Dr. Uma Naidoo. She is a psychiatrist at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital and a professional chef. She noted the relationship between food, mood and anxiety is garnering more and more attention. When thinking about dietary strategies to help relieve anxiety, start with the basics. That means eating a balanced diet, drinking enough water, and limiting or avoiding alcohol and caffeine. But there’s a lot more. Many other dietary considerations also can help relieve anxiety. For example, complex carbohydrates are metabolized more slowly and therefore help maintain a more even blood sugar level. Why is that important? When blood sugar levels swing from high to low, the heart begins to beat faster and more forcefully. The hands can start trembling. People start to sweat. All these physical changes often produce anxiety. Anxiety, in turn, makes all of these changes more prominent – leading to more anxiety, and a vicious circle. So, maintaining a more even blood sugar level creates a calmer feeling. The takehome? Choose whole grains, vegetables and fruits over highly refined or processed foods to help keep blood sugar – and mood – more stable. When you eat also is important. Don’t skip meals. Doing so may result in a drop in blood sugar that causes you to feel jittery, worsening underlying anxiety. Specific foods and nutrients can reduce anxiety. They spur the release of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopa-

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff mine. Low levels of these brain chemicals are believed to play a role in anxiety and depression. These “feel good” foods are a safe and easy first step in managing anxiety. They include: • Foods naturally rich in magnesium, including spinach, Swiss chard, legumes, nuts, seeds and whole grains. • Foods rich in zinc, such as oysters, cashews, liver, beef and egg yolks. • Foods, like fatty fish, that contain omega-3 fatty acid. • Foods rich in B vitamins, such as avocado and almonds. Anxiety also may be linked with lower levels of antioxidants in the body. It stands to reason, then, that enhancing your diet with foods rich in antioxidants may help ease the symptoms of anxiety. Foods containing high levels of antioxidants include: • Beans: dried small red, pinto, black, red kidney • Fruits: apples, prunes, sweet cherries, plums, black plums • Berries: blackberries, strawberries, cranberries, raspberries, blueberries • Nuts: walnuts, pecans • Vegetables: artichokes, kale, spinach, beets, broccoli • Spices: turmeric and ginger. Nutritional therapy is not intended to replace other treatments. Talk to your doctor if your anxiety symptoms are severe or last more than two weeks. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

HOW TO PLAY Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 boxes must contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition.

Dear Abby: I DEAR ABBY have been married to my soul Jeanne mate for 25 years. Phillips We get along great – she’s my best friend and a good mother to our three kids. (She takes care of my mom who lives with us, too.) The only problem is, she loves to sleep. She will do anything for us except wake up a few hours early without being mad at the world. She gets our kids off to school with no problem, but then returns to bed. I run a small construction company and need someone to answer the phones and do secretary stuff. Our books are a mess, the house is decent, but she won’t let me hire a part-time secretary. She gets up at noon and spends the rest of the day “catching up.” It’s driving a wedge in our marriage. My friends and their wives do things together on weekends, but not mine. She sleeps until 2 or 3 p.m. on the weekends. I work a lot of Saturdays, and when I go to customers’ homes and see the wife outside gardening, it breaks my heart. I have threatened to leave, and she works on it for a couple of days and then falls back into the same old habits. Help. – Hurting Husband In California Dear Husband: Not everyone requires the same amount of sleep to function. Some folks may be fine with five hours, but others need eight, nine or even 10. If your wife needs more than that, there may be an underlying problem of some kind she should discuss with her doctor. In marriage, there needs to be compromise. If you are experiencing stress because you don’t have enough help in your business, then you need to hire someone because your wife already is doing all she can taking care of three kids and your mother. And you shouldn’t need her permission. Dear Abby: At a pool party recently, I complimented another woman on her “good figure” (she was wearing a bikini and looked great in it), but I was told later by a different woman who had been there how “hurtful” my compliment had been to everyone else present because I complimented only the bikini-wearing woman. I felt coerced into apologizing to the second woman for not offering a compliment of some kind to everyone else at the party – which seems artificial and unnecessary (actually stupid) to me. The woman looking for the apology left me feeling steamed, and now I’m thinking maybe I apologized for something I didn’t need to. Is it true you shouldn’t compliment one person if you can’t manage to do the same for everyone else present? – Pool Party Compliment Dear P.P.C.: No, it’s not. I have never heard of that rule of etiquette. Following her logic, you would be compelled to compliment every male at an event if you told one the tie or shirt he was wearing was nice. I suspect the woman was less hurt than jealous, and I doubt the other women at the pool party were paying much attention to what you said.

One of the most important aspects of defense is to make your signals as readable as possible to partner. If you are going to encourage or show an even number of cards in a suit, play as high as you can afford; do not skimp. A harder problem can be knowing which signal partner would like to receive: attitude, count or suit-preference. In this deal, South allowed himself to be pushed into four diamonds. How should the defense have gone? In the auction, North used the Unusual No-trump to show at least 5-5 in the minors. When South sensibly settled for three diamonds, East competed with three spades, arguing afterward that the Law of Total Tricks says to compete to the three-level with a nine-card ﬁt. However, the prevailing vulnerability and his balanced pattern should have suggested caution. Three spades doubled could have gone down two, minus 500. But three spades worked in theory when South went too high. West led the club ace, hoping to cash the ﬁrst four tricks. Since the club queen was on the board, East correctly gave count by playing his two -- lowest from an odd number. West, judging that his partner would have bid three spades on round one with a singleton club, now cashed the spade ace. This denied the king, because you should lead king from ace-king after trick one. East encouraged with his four, but that looked low to West. When he took the club king and shifted to a heart. South claimed. East should not have been parsimonious; he should have signaled with his spade nine, playing as high as possible.
