To curb

two young boys, examines an insidious aspect
of child sex abuse: the way predators might
groom children and even parents to build
intimacy and trust.

haviors are clear only in retrospect. Gifts and

Combat farms’
antibiotic overuse
During the Lenten season of dietary
restrictions, Chicagoans should spend
time examining the dangerous practices
of factory farms in Illinois — specifically,
the overuse of antibiotics. It is becoming
increasingly difficult to cure infections
with antibiotics due to the overuse of
these lifesaving medicines at factory
farms. Antibiotics are often fed to ani-
mals that aren’t even sick. As a result,
bacteria are becoming increasingly
resistant to antibiotics, making these
infections difficult to treat.
The World Health Organization calls
for countries to eliminate routine antibi-
otic use on healthy animals for growth
promotion and disease prevention,
citing scientific evidence that links such
overuse in animals to the emergence of
antibiotic resistance. That’s why the
Illinois Public Interest Research Group
has introduced the Keep Antibiotics
Effective Act (S.B. 1186), which would
ban the routine use of antibiotics on
factory farms. This state General As-
sembly bill is crucial to protecting pub-
lic health in the state of Illinois and
beyond, which is why our senators need
to vote in support of it.

Monday afternoon when
news broke of Landon Collins’
record-setting deal with the
Redskins.
Collins reset the bar for the
position with a reported
six-year, $84 million contract
that includes a whopping $45
million guaranteed. Agents
and players alike are eagerly
awaiting the details of this
deal when it becomes official
after the opening of the new
league year at 3 p.m.
Wednesday.
Meanwhile, in the NFC
North the Lions were quick

negotiating window opened
at 11 a.m., moving quickly on a
host of players like the Bears
did a year ago. They bolstered
the defense with agreements
for pass rusher Trey Flowers
and nickel cornerback Justin
Coleman and added tight end
Jesse James and slot receiver
Danny Amendola on offense.
Collins wasn’t the only
safety to hit the jackpot.
Tyrann Mathieu will head
to the Chiefs, where he’s
reportedly set to sign a
three-year, $42 million
contract. That leaves Earl

The conference tournament is back in Chicago. Questions? Good. We’ve got answers.
JIM DELANY
BIG TEN COMMISSIONER
After D.C. and NYC,

other new sites await
By Teddy Greenstein | Chicago Tribune
After forays to the DMV and MSG, the Big Ten

basketball tournament returns to the Chi.
The conference’s 2017 stop in Washington did little
but anger its Midwestern fan base. Even Maryland fans
were steamed, given that the Terrapins didn’t win a
game at the Verizon Center.
Most New Yorkers ignored last year’s event at
Madison Square Garden, but not Big Ten alumni living
in the Big Apple. Coaches also relished the opportunity
(“Monumental,” Indiana’s Archie Miller said), as did the
players. Michigan’s Charles Matthews, a Chicago native,
said, “The experience here is second to none.”
This week’s event returns to its roots: the United
Center, which hosted the first four (1998-2001) and also
in 2003, ’05, ’07, ’13 and ’15.
A year after the conference landed just four teams in
the NCAA tournament, the Big Ten is poised to send
eight or nine, either of which would be a league record.
Six teams are locks (Michigan State, Purdue, Michigan,
Wisconsin, Maryland and Iowa). Minnesota is a safe bet.
Ohio State and Indiana are bubbling.
And in a show of overall balance, all 14 teams rank
among Sagarin’s top 82.
Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany looked back on the
season and ahead to the tournament in an interview
with the Tribune:
How satisfied have you been with Big Ten hoops

this season?
We had a great November and December. Our
nonconference success rate, we won a tad below 80
percent and did well against first- and second-quartile
teams, the best in the country. Top to bottom, it has been
very competitive. The efforts we made to enhance the
pre-conference season with the ACC Challenge and the
Gavitt Games really popped. We pushed through the
clutter in November and December, playing games on
many days of the week across four platforms — CBS,

Horoscopes Dilbert By Scott Adams
Today’s birthday (March 12): Expand your

professional boundaries this year. Rely on
the support of a strong team. Give in to a
strong attraction this summer, before over-
coming a group difficulty. Your community
rallies next winter, before a creative chal-
lenge twists. Together, stand for what you love.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is an 8. You’re especially
brilliant today and tomorrow. Apply creativity and concen-
tration to solve a puzzle. Provide backup for someone in
your network. Your message inspires.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): 9. You can make extra money for
a few days. Take advantage of a lucky break to push ahead.
Maintain positive cash flow through careful monitoring. Baby Blues By Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott
Gemini (May 21-June 20): 9. Put on your power suit. Energize
a cause close to your heart. Document your findings. Some-
one’s saying nice things about you. Speak out for others.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): 6. Finish a project in private
through tomorrow. Organize and file. Put things away.
Prepare your space for what’s coming next. Clear your mind
and rest.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): 8. Pull together with your team to
get ahead. It takes a village. Discover something surprising
about someone you thought you knew. Strengthen your col-
laborative infrastructure.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): 8. Can you mix business with plea-
sure? Travel could serve both purposes. A professional goal
has your attention. Keep your eye on the target and prepare.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): 8. Monitor news and conditions Zits By Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman
carefully. While breakdowns and distractions are possible,
travels and studies can take solid ground.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): 9. Work together to advance on a
shared financial goal. Find creative solutions to a challenge.
Listen to diverse views. Choose what’s best for family.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): 8. Listen to your partner, and
remain open to compromise. Notice where you might be
stuck. Collaboration allows you each to contribute strengths
and protect weaknesses.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): 8. The pace quickens, and your
heart gets pumping. Practice your physical moves and main-
tain physical routines for growing energy.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): 7. Listen to your heart. Enjoy the
company of someone you love. Romantic scenarios could un-
fold. Prioritize family and fun when choosing activities. Mr. Boffo By Joe Martin
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): 8. The next two days could get
busy at home. Domestic chores and upgrades blend with
family activities and gatherings.

Today’s deal was reportedly played in a rubber bridge

was conceded to the ace of trumps and South scored up his
doubled slam.
West, we are told, wandered aimlessly around the bridge
club for quite a while, muttering to himself all the time. He
asked several friends if they thought it was possible to find
a trump lead from his hand. A trump lead, in fact, is the only
lead to defeat the contract two tricks. The ace of diamonds,
instead, will lead to down one. The ace of spades lead would
fare no better than the ace of hearts, as declarer would have
been able to discard all four of dummy’s diamonds on his
spades.
What would you have led?
