MCC board favors merit system Performance to determine raises for administrators, but not college president By JEFF ENGELHARDT jengelhardt@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – After months of delays and disagreements from trustees, administrators at McHenry County College could be in line for a raise under a new merit-based system. The McHenry County College Board voiced support for

a merit-based raise system for the college’s 38 administrators, ending the practice of across-the-board pay bumps that many trustees wanted to change. Administrators, who received a 1.7 percent cost-ofliving increase in July as officials worked to fine-tune a performance-based compensation plan, could receive

an additional 1.5 percent increase to their base salary or nothing depending on performance evaluations, which are due Friday. Tony Miksa, vice president of academic and student affairs, said administrators would be ranked on a point system ranging from one to four in 15 different performance categories and receive

an average score. If the average is below two, those administrators will receive no extra compensation. A score between 2 and the overall average of all 38 administrators equals a 1 percent raise while any employee who scores higher than the overall average will receive a 1.5 percent increase. The total pot for raises is

roughly $134,000. Miksa said using the overall average score of the 38 administrators prevents supervisors from handing out the highest score possible with hopes of giving employees the biggest raise. “I really salute what you’ve done here,” board Chairman

PREPARING FOR WINTER WEATHER

Down to an exact science

By LINDSEY TANNER The Associated Press CHICAGO – Doctors 2 parents: Limit kids’ tweeting, texting & keep smartphones, laptops out of bedrooms. #goodluckwiththat. The recommendations are bound to prompt eye-rolling and LOLs from many teens, but an influential pediatricians group says parents need to know that unrestricted media use can have serious consequences. It’s been linked with violence, cyberbullying, school woes, obesity, lack of sleep and a host of other problems. It’s not a major cause of these troubles, but “many parents are clueless” about the profound impact media exposure can have on their children, said Dr. Victor Strasburger, lead author of the new American Academy of Pediatrics policy “This is the 21st century, and they need to get with it,” said Strasburger, a University of New Mexico adolescent medicine specialist. The policy is aimed at all kids, including those who use smartphones, computers and other Internet-connected devices. It expands the academy’s longstanding recommendations on banning televisions from children’s and teens’ bedrooms and limiting entertainment screen time to no more than two hours daily. Under the new policy, those two hours include using the Internet for entertainment,

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

How eating cookies became a rat race I remember when I ate my first Oreo cookies. I was about eight years old and during a brief yet opportune unsupervised moment in our kitchen, I discovered an unopened package of those black and white beauties in our pantry. Needless to say, one Oreo led to another, and before long Nabisco could chalk up 30 more ingested disks on their way to their current 450 billion. Of course, during the Great Oreo Pilfer of 1956 I also chugged a glass quart of Borden’s milk, further cementing the magical connection between Elsie the Cow and the delectable synthesis of chocolate biscuit and white cream filling. Later, I learned the proper dunking methodology and since then my milky fingers and I have not looked back. That is, until recently when a bunch of scientists have tried to put a damper on my dunking. Evidently, according to the science guys at some college, there’s a bunch of rats wandering around in a maze that have somehow proven that Oreo cookies may be as addictive as an illegal powerful drug. Well,

8LOTTERY

JUST HUMOR ME Michael Penkava having considered their research and finding serious flaws in their experimentation, I will now commence to defend the reputation of milk’s favorite cookie. As I mentioned earlier, rats were put into a maze. In the first instance, they had the choice of two destinations: Oreos or rice cakes. The rats chose Oreos. Duh. That’s like giving humans a choice between eating cardboard or whipped cream. The next time the rats were put into the maze, they had another option. They could select either the rice cakes or the powerful addictive drug. Well, the rats chose the drug. That’s no surprise because you can’t blame them for making a quick U-turn when they saw the rice cakes again. But the scientists, following the formula that things equal to the same thing are equal to each other, concluded that since the rats went

for both the Oreos and the drug, then they must share common properties. In other words, they claim that Oreos are as addictive as the crystalline tropane alkaloid. That’s like saying that if I always leave my underwear on the floor, and my friend John always leaves the knife in the peanut butter jar, then we are both slobs. That’s ridiculous. Now, if one of us put our underwear in the peanut butter jar, then you might have a point. But that’s a whole other scientific study. Now, that brings me to consider other questionable variables in the experiment. Take, for example, the rats. We don’t know whether they were good rats or bad rats. Of course a bad rat will go for the drug. And even if there were some good rats, they were probably pressured by the delinquent rats to make a bad choice. And what about those rice cakes? Some rice cakes have a glycemic index rating close to pure glucose, and that will take any rat’s sugar level on an elevator ride. Did you know that Oreos, in that case, are the healthier choice? Perhaps what those scientists had there were simply a bunch of

health-conscious hyperglycemic rats running around in their maze. Finally, the whole maze concept is problematic. If you want to observe a normal response, you don’t lock someone in a labyrinth. I once went to a corn maze and spent two exasperated hours just trying to escape. Toss in some rice cakes and it’s the Mayan Apocalypse. So let’s just draw our own logical conclusions from this experiment. They are as follows: 1) Bad rats like drugs. 2) Rice cakes are full of carbs. 3) Rodentis Oreosis may be a new undiscovered species. Any deduction beyond these observations is simply scientific gibberish.

Quinn asks lawmakers for an extra $221M The ASSOCIATED PRESS SPRINGFIELD – Gov. Pat Quinn’s administration wants lawmakers to approve $221 million in extra funds to spend this fiscal year, a request that follows the $35 billion budget approved by the Legislature in May. A draft of the request includes $112 million to pay back wages owed to 25,000 state workers, the Springfield

Bureau of Lee Enterprises reported. The effort by the administration to secure additional funds for the workers showcases continued tension between the Quinn and the Legislature over the issue. The state’s largest employee union sued after the General Assembly in 2011 refused to appropriate money for the raises promised to workers in five state agencies under the state’s old labor con-

tract. Quinn had said there was no money for the raises. A Cook County Circuit Court judge ruled last December Illinois had to pay the raises, plus interest. Quinn had previously agreed to restore the wages, but the Legislature failed to act on a supplemental spending request last Spring. Quinn’s assistant budget director, Abdon Pallasch, said the administration will contin-

ue to push to get the mo sney for the raises approved. “The court has ordered us to pay this bill,” Pallasch told the Associated Press. “Not paying it does not make it go away.” Also in the request is another $40.5 million for the Illinois Department of Corrections, part of which would cover converting state prisons to a twomeal a day “brunch and dinner” system, The AP reported

last week. State police and the Department of Human services are asking for a total of $34 million to help implement the state’s new concealed carry law. The state police also requested $1.8 million to train a new class of cadets, and the state’s Emergency Management Agency wants $6 million to help cover April flooding. Pallasch said the Department of Transportation is also

requesting $3 million for a program helping minority businesses enterprises. The spending requests are still in negotiations and numbers could change, Pallasch said. Lawmakers heard some spending requests during the fall session that began last week but have yet to vote on them. They’re expected to talk more about it when they reconvene Nov. 5.

Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky arrives Jan. 10 at the Centre County Courthouse for a post-sentencing hearing in Bellefonte, Pa. Penn State said Monday it is paying $59.7 million to 26 young men over claims of child sexual abuse at the hands of Sandusky. The university said it had concluded negotiations that have lasted about a year.

Penn State says 26 people get $59.7M over Sandusky By MARK SCOLFORO The Associated Press HARRISBURG, Pa. – Penn State said Monday it is paying $59.7 million to 26 young men over claims of child sexual abuse at the hands of former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky, a man once revered as a university icon who is now serving what is effectively a life prison sentence. Nearly two years after the retired coach was first charged with child molestation, the school said 23 deals were fully signed and three were agreements in principle. It did not disclose the names of the recipients. The school faces six other claims, and the university says it believes some of those do not have merit while others may produce settlements. University president Rodney Erickson issued a statement calling the announcement a step forward for victims and the school. “We cannot undo what has been done, but we can and must do everything possible to learn from this and ensure

it never happens again at Penn State,” said Erickson, who announced the day Sandusky was convicted in June 2012 that Penn State was determined to compensate his victims. The settlements have been unfolding since mid-August, when attorneys for the accusers began to disclose them. Penn State has not been confirming them, waiting instead to announce deals at once. Harrisburg lawyer Ben Andreozzi, who helped negotiate several of the settlements, said his clients were satisfied. “They felt that the university treated them fairly with the economic and noneconomic terms of the settlement,” said Andreozzi, who also represents some others who have come forward recently. Those new claims have not been presented to the university, he said. One client represented by St. Paul, Minn., attorney Jeff Anderson signed off on an agreement in the past week and the other is basically done, he said. Anderson counts his two clients as

among the three that have been classified as agreements in principle, which Penn State said means final documentation is expected to be completed in the next few weeks. Anderson said his clients were focused on Penn State’s changes to prevent future abuse. “I have to applaud them, because they said ‘not until we’re satisfied that no one else will get hurt,’ ” Anderson said. “The settlement of their cases in no way heals, in no way lessens the wound that remains open and the scars that are deep.” Penn State has spent more than $50 million on other costs related to the Sandusky scandal, including lawyers’ fees, public relations expenses and adoption of new policies and procedures related to children and sexual abuse complaints. It said Monday that liability insurance is expected to cover the payments and legal defense, and expenses not covered should be paid from interest paid on loans by Penn State to its self-supporting units.

WASHINGTON – From his days as a federal prosecutor to his installation ceremony as FBI director, James Comey’s law enforcement career was praised Monday by President Barack Obama as a success story that shows Comey is the right choice to lead the FBI for the next decade. Three former FBI directors and two former attorneys general were on hand as Comey told more than 3,000 FBI employees and guests gathered in the agency’s courtyard on Pennsylvania Avenue that the FBI must be “independent of all political forces and interests.” Comey took over last month for Robert Mueller, who stepped down after 12 years as FBI director. Obama says he picked Comey to lead the FBI after interviewing many other candidates for the job.

Jackson doctor released, wants return to medicine LOS ANGELES – Michael Jackson’s doctor was quietly freed from jail Monday, two years after he was convicted of killing the pop superstar with an overdose of a powerful anesthetic – and he would like to practice medicine again.

Conrad Murray was released at 12:01 a.m. from a jail in downtown Los Angeles after serving about half of his maximum sentence for involuntary manslaughter. A change in California law allowed his incarceration time to be significantly reduced. Murray was taken from the jail a back way, eluding a cluster of TV crews and a few Jackson fans. Sheriff’s officials arranged the quiet exit and drove him away for safety reasons, spokesman Steve Whitmore said.

State: Workers called 911 about care of patients CASTRO VALLEY, Calif. – Owners of an assisted living facility that had its license suspended last week were given permission by the state to keep operating as patients were relocated, but concerns about care led workers to call 911 for help over the weekend, a state official said Monday. Authorities were called to the Valley Springs Manor Community Care Center in Castro Valley on Saturday after three staffers determined they could not take care of the patients, California Department of Social Services spokesman Michael Weston said.

“There was always staff at the facility, but the staff there felt that the needs of the residents exceeded their capacity,” Weston said.

Mich. gov. says lawsuits led to bankruptcy filing DETROIT – Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder testified Monday that lawsuits filed against him, the Detroit emergency manager and others by city debtholders proved to be the final straw that led him to authorize the city to file for bankruptcy. Snyder said the filing wasn’t an attempt to forestall court-imposed injunctions that could result from the lawsuits. But he said he was concerned that the lawsuits from state retirees and others showed that there “wasn’t a meeting of the minds” and that the city needed to protect itself as it struggled to pay bills. Snyder’s testimony came during the fourth day of a federal trial before Judge Steven Rhodes to determine whether the city can fix its finances in bankruptcy court. His testimony centered on what led to the bankruptcy filing, as well as a decision in March to name bankruptcy expert Kevyn Orr as Detroit’s emergency manager.

New chief justice of Ill. Supreme Court fully backs cameras in court By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press CHICAGO – The new chief justice of the Illinois Supreme Court – sworn in Monday in a courthouse where she began her judicial career 40 years ago – says she fully backs her predecessor’s push to open trials to news photographers and electronic media. Rita Garman, 69, was sworn in by the chief justice she’s replacing, Thomas Kilbride, whose highest profile policy was implementing a pilot program permitting cameras in select state courtrooms – with the aim of possibility one day ending in-court camera bans for good. In prepared remarks after being sworn in at Vermilion County Courthouse in Danville – her hometown in eastern Illinois – Garman didn’t mention the camera program. But asked in a telephone interview with The Associated Press hours later if she sup-

ports it, Garman didn’t hesitate. “I certainly do – wholeheartedly,” she said. While the program is described as being in a test phase, Garman added she didn’t see Illinois ever returning to a blanket prohibition on courtroom cameras. Kilbride, who resumes his associate Rita Garman j u s t i c e p o s t , launched the camera-in-court initiative nearly two years ago. Thirty-five out of 102 Illinois counties are currently participating in the program, with several having already broadcast trials live. “It is working smoothly,” said Garman. “I anticipate it will gain speed as we move forward.” The state’s most populous county, Cook, isn’t fully participating yet, though it has laid

groundwork for taking part. Garman said she hoped Cook and many more counties could be incorporated into the program soon. The state has allowed cameras to be present during Supreme Court and appellate court hearings since 1983. But at the time, the ban at statecourt trials was continued out of concern that cameras would be disruptive and undermine a defendant’s right to a fair trial. In her prepared remarks, Garman did say she supports “the increased use of technology” to make “courts more efficient and to ensure transparency.” And she said more must be done to guarantee cases don’t become clogged up in the system, delaying justice. Garman becomes second woman to hold the post of chief justice. She’s one of three women currently on the seven-member panel. “This is probably one of the most gratifying and uplifting moments of my life,” she said.

Scaredy-cats run amok in Springfield Last year, Gov. Pat Quinn proposed Squeezy, the Pension Python, as the perfect symbol for Illinois’ festering public pension crisis. With the Legislature’s continuing inability to solve the pension woes, we propose a new symbol: the scaredy-cat. It isn’t even Halloween yet, but state legislators certainly appear scared to do anything about the $100 billion unfunded For the record pension deficit. It’s a frightenAn unpopular decision, of ing problem that course, can be used in a camsucks billions of paign to unseat a lawmaker. General Fund And who wants to lose a job, dollars away from especially in a high-unemploypaying bills, edument state such as Illinois? cating students, operating facilities and providing social services. A bipartisan committee has studied pension reform for months. Some Illinoisans expressed the hope that, during last week’s veto session of the General Assembly, a proposed solution would be brought before lawmakers for their consideration. Not so. Nothing happened on pension reform Tuesday. Nothing happened Wednesday. Both the House and Senate canceled Thursday’s sessions. They don’t plan to meet again until a three-day session in November. After that, wait until next year. An Associated Press story from last week carried a telling sentence: “... [A] looming deadline for opponents to challenge sitting lawmakers in next year’s elections is among several reasons those issues [pension reform, gay marriage] could be pushed off once again.” That’s correct. Some lawmakers, afraid of making potentially unpopular political decisions on pension reform, appear to be in no hurry to address it. An unpopular decision, of course, can be used in a campaign to unseat a lawmaker. And who wants to lose a job, especially in a highunemployment state such as Illinois? With no end in sight for the pension crisis, we are fearful for the state’s future. The longer the pension crisis is ignored, the deeper in debt Illinois tumbles. Lawmakers were elected to courageously solve problems, not cower before them. By failing to act, scaredy-cat lawmakers aren’t doing themselves – or the state – any favors. On Election Day, voters need to grab a broom and shoo those scaredy-cats away.

Not worth the wait On Thursday, representatives of the federal contractors who built HealthCare.gov stated the obvious in front of a House panel: The government did not leave enough time to test the website before its error-filled Oct. 1 launch. The next question, a growing number of lawmakers now insist, is whether the government will leave people enough time to sign up for coverage before they are fined for lacking health insurance. “Given the existing problems with the website,” Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., wrote to President Obama on Tuesday, “I urge you to consider extending open enrollment beyond the current end date of March 31, 2014.” Nine other Senate Democrats signed a similar letter. The move would delay the penalty for lacking coverage, which is set to kick in next spring. Other lawmakers want to go further, canceling the penalty for all of next year. Neither proposal is a good idea. Despite the intolerable failure of the Obama administration to warn the country that HealthCare.gov would not work at launch, there is still plenty of time for the government to make the required fixes. The first major deadline is not until Dec. 15, when people have to apply to obtain insurance coverage that starts Jan. 1. People don’t need insurance then, though, to avoid the penalty. Why not delay the penalty, just in case? Following through on the delay would destabilize the new and vulnerable insurance market. Next year, the law will oblige insurance companies to accept pretty much anyone, regardless of age or health. The trade-off is that everyone will be required to buy into the system so that insurance companies can have enough healthy customers to keep premiums for everyone reasonable. The penalty against individuals lacking health care coverage is a crucial tool in the effort to drive people into the new system. Delay it, and you’ll get fewer people signing up in the first part of next year, and insurance companies will demand, with good reason, to renege on the rates they are offering for next year’s coverage.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Minimum sentences support To the Editor: I was surprised when the Northwest Herald came out against minimum sentences for gun crimes. Liberals, for years, have been pining for more gun control, smaller capacity magazines, stricter registration, etc. Now when we talk about criminals, people such as Toni Preckwinkle seem to think we should let the judges have discretion over sentences. Some of the arguments against minimum sentences are that the prisons are overcrowded, and it costs too much to keep prisoners behind bars. In one of the recent shootings this summer in Chicago, where 13 people were shot in a park after 10 p.m., the shooter was a convicted felon and had been recently caught with a loaded 9 mm handgun after a call to 9-1-1 of shots fired. The presiding judge sentenced this felon, a known gang member in possession of an illegal gun, to boot camp. Really? Several weeks

later, he’s shooting up a park full of innocent folks, including a toddler. If it costs $40,000 to house a prisoner for one year, then what did emergency and follow-up care cost for the 13 people shot in the park? I grow tired of the guncontrol folks talking about stricter regulations. Yet when we talk about the thugs that are causing all the angst, they suddenly become compassionate and make excuses for their violent criminal behavior. I would venture the cost of incarceration is far less expensive than the medical care being provided for the victims of gun violence. Gregory Walker Lake in the Hills

Emanuel, NRA working on gun-sentence deal Back when Richard M. Daley was Chicago’s mayor, hizzoner would hold a big, splashy news conference every year with cops and prosecutors and crime victims to unveil his new state gun-control legislation. The Chicago media poobahs would shout their huzzahs, the NRA would fume and raise tons of money from angry members, and then Daley would quietly go back to his job as mayor and nothing much would ever happen in Springfield. Rahm Emanuel is not Rich Daley. Mayor Emanuel’s Statehouse lobbyists are engaged in serious talks with the NRA and even the more strident Illinois State Rifle Association (something that Daley would never do, and vice versa) to try and work out a compromise on legislation to force convicted gun possession violators to remain in prison for a lot longer than they already are. Emanuel is said to be actively involved by phone. It still remains to be seen whether Emanuel can succeed where Daley routinely failed. Some legislators said last week they believed the sides were closing in on a deal, but the NRA still had some objections. The basic disagreement is over first-time offenders.

VIEWS Rich Miller Emanuel initially wanted some first-time gun possession offenders to do guaranteed prison time. The harsh reality is that too many people are getting light sentences for gun offenses, and then they’re coming out of prison to commit more gun crimes. The NRA, however, worries that otherwise innocent, law-abiding citizens who make a harmless mistake could wind up doing hard time. One of the compromises currently on the table would force state’s attorneys to initially charge some first-time offenders with a misdemeanor but allow prosecutors to go through a detailed “felony review” process that could result in much more severe criminal charges. But the NRA frets that hardline anti-gun Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez would abuse the process to lock too many of the wrong people behind bars. Indeed, word from inside the talks is that the NRA brought up an example of a man with an out of state gun permit who has been

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

fighting off a Cook County felony weapons possession charge for two years. The charges were reportedly dropped when the state’s attorney was put on the spot during negotiations. The NRA understandably worries that Alvarez, who once said “I don’t believe that people should own guns,” and “I would favor a law that no one could ever buy a gun,” will continue playing hardball with gun owners who don’t have criminal records. The NRA also finds itself in the somewhat unusual position of being allied with several African-American lawmakers who oppose additional mandatory minimum bills after seeing thousands of their constituents disproportionately locked up under current mandatory minimum sentencing laws. But all of this is the way things work on just about everything else. It’s how things eventually get done. People on all sides with strong positions sit down and find a way to compromise. But up until last spring’s concealed-carry negotiations, which were forced on Springfield by a federal judge, that hadn’t really happened on gunrelated issues. If they do come to some agreement, the next hurdle will be

Gov. Pat Quinn. The governor has historically been loathe to offend African-American voters, so he has maintained an unusually low profile on Emanuel’s mandatory minimum proposals, not wanting to get caught in the middle. Quinn told the Illinois Radio Network that he wanted a ban on high capacity gun magazines included in the sentencing bill discussions. Such a provision would be a deal-killer for the NRA, and Quinn surely knows this. The danger here is if Quinn tries to use a carefully crafted bill to grandstand on gun control, as he did this past summer with his splashy veto of the concealed-carry bill after refusing to participate in the negotiations. If Gov. Quinn uses his amendatory veto powers to insert the magazine ban, he quite probably could tube the whole thing. Then again, if somebody is murdered by a repeat gun offender after Quinn vetoes the bill, the heat on the governor would be enormous, and a vindictive Emanuel would undoubtedly fan the flames. Quinn needs to tread carefully here. • Rich Miller publishes Capitol Fax, a daily political newsletter, and CapitolFax.com.

Strong gusts batter UK, Europe By GREGORY KATZ The Associated Press LONDON – A savage coastal storm powered by hurricane-force gusts slashed its way through Britain and western Europe on Monday, felling trees, flooding lowlands and snarling traffic in the air, at sea and on land. At least 13 people were reported killed. It was one of the worst storms to hit the region in years. The deadly tempest had no formal name – and wasn’t officially classified as a hurricane due to a meteorological standard – but it was dubbed the St. Jude storm (after the patron saint of lost causes) and stormageddon on social networks. Gusts of 99 mph were reported on the Isle of Wight in southern England, while gusts up to 80 mph hit the British mainland. Later in the day, the Danish capital of Copenhagen saw record gusts of up to 120 mph and an autobahn in central Germany was shut down by gusts up to 62 mph. All across the region, people were warned to stay indoors. Hundreds of trees were uprooted or split, blocking roads and crushing cars. The Dutch were told to leave their beloved bicycles at home for safety’s sake.

A car is seen crushed under a fallen tree Monday as a man pushes a bicycle nearby after a storm in Hornsey, north London. A major storm with hurricane-force winds is lashing southern Britain, causing flooding and travel delays including the cancellation of roughly 130 flights at London’s Heathrow Airport. At least 13 storm-related deaths were reported, most victims crushed by falling trees. Germany had six deaths, Britain had five and the Netherlands and Denmark had one each. One woman was also missing after being swept into the surf in France. Two people were killed in London by a gas explosion, and a British teen who played in the storm-driven surf was swept out to sea. A man in Denmark was killed when a brick flew off and hit him in

the head. Despite the strength of its gusts, the storm was not considered a hurricane because it didn’t form over warm expanses of open ocean like the hurricanes that batter the Caribbean and the United States. Britain’s national weather service, the Met Office, said Britain does not get hurricanes because those are “warm latitude” storms that draw their energy from seas far warmer than the North Atlantic. Monday’s storm also

did not have an “eye” at its center like most hurricanes. London’s Heathrow Airport, Europe’s busiest, canceled at least 130 flights and giant waves prompted the major English port of Dover to close, cutting off ferry services to France. Nearly 1,100 passengers had to ride out the storm on a heaving ferry from Newcastle in Britain to the Dutch port of Ijmuiden after strong winds and heavy seas blocked it from docking in the morning. The ship returned to the North Sea to wait for the wind to die down rather than risk being smashed against the harbor’s walls, Teun-Wim Leene of DFDS Seaways told national broadcaster NOS. In central London, a huge building crane near the prime minister’s office crumpled in the gusts. The city’s overburdened transit system faced major delays and cancellations and did not recover even once the weather swept to the east. A nuclear power station in Kent, southern England, automatically shut its two reactors after storm debris reduced its incoming power supply. Officials at the Dungeness B plant said the reactors had shut down safely and would be brought back once power was restored.

U.S. weighs end to spying on leaders The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – The Obama administration is considering ending spying on allied heads of state, a senior administration official said, as the White House grappled with the fallout from revelations that the U.S. has eavesdropped on German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The official said late Monday that a final decision had not been made and an internal review was still underway. The revelations about National Security Agency monitoring of Merkel were the latest in a monthslong spying scandal that has strained longstanding alliances with some of America’s closest partners. Earlier Monday, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, called for a “total review of all intelligence programs.” Feinstein, D-Calif., said in a statement that the White House had informed her that “collection on our allies will not continue.” The administration official said that statement was not accurate, but added that some unspecified changes already had

been made and more were being considered, including terminating the collection of communications from friendly heads of state. The official was not authorized to discuss the review by name and insisted on anonymity. As a result of the spying allegations, German officials said Monday that the U.S. could lose access to an important law enforcement tool used to track terrorist money flows. As possible leverage, German authorities cited last week’s nonbinding resolution by the European Parliament to suspend a post9/11 agreement allowing the Americans access to bank transfer data to track the flow of terrorist money. A top German official said she believed the Americans were using the information obtained from Merkel to gather economic intelligence apart from terrorism and that the agreement known as SWIFT should be suspended. Feinstein said while the intelligence community has kept her apprised of other issues, such as the court orders on telephone record collection, intelligence officials failed to brief her on how they followed foreign leaders.

2010 report found kids ages 8 to 18 spend 7 hours a day using entertainment media • MEDIA Continued from page A1

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

McHenry County Department of Transportation Maintenance Superintendent Mark DeVries explains the mixing process of the pretreatment formula of salt water, sugar beet solution and calcium chloride. DeVries developed the anti-icing solution that many communities now use to keep ice from sticking to the roads. The anti-icing solution is stored in tanks at the DOT facility in Woodstock.

DeVries: ‘We would be pretty ready to go if anything happened today’ • WINTER Continued from page A1 his truck number and the amount of mixture he needs into a computer. The correct percentage of each ingredient – which DeVries can mix together with an app on his phone – will be funneled into the truck. “It’s all digital,” DeVries said. “Now we can give [our drivers] a different mix at midnight than what they got at noon based on what the conditions are. It’s mixed on demand.” DeVries, who is known across the world for pioneering ice prevention mixes, said being able to control the precise amount of material not only better combats hazardous winter weather but it also saves time, money and resources. And it keeps unnecessary amounts of salt from entering the county’s water supply. “It’s all about implementing the very best practices out there,” he said. “If the road is wet and they spread it with salt, was it needed? Those are the things we get [our drivers] to think about because it winds up in our water systems.” DeVries substitutes organic materials such as sugar beets, sugar cane and corn syrup into the mixes, which when combined with salt creates a much more effective and longer lasting solution. “If you’ve ever had a Coke,

a glass of water freezes at 32 [degrees] but a Coke freezes at 24 [degrees]. Well what’s the difference? It’s the sugar. Pure sugars freeze at a lower temperatures. “When you spill that Coke and step in it three days later, it’s still sticky. [Sugar] keeps our salts on the roads longer. So now we’ve got something that freezes at a lower temperature and lasts longer on the road.” DeVries said he gets contacted “once a week” by other cities, states and even countries who are interested in how McHenry County fights snowstorms. DeVries has been to Argentina, China and Europe to educate organizations on better ways to treat wintry roads. He also teaches a class in McHenry County for area municipalities to learn about his method of snow preparation. “Back in 2000, people wanted to use sugar beets instead of salt, and it wasn’t working,” he said. “But we found a way of incorporating it into our liquid combinations. And we’ve kind of been the pioneer in that area.” New technologies and innovative ideas are allowing the county to better fight winter weather, DeVries said. But the DOT’s improvements don’t stop at road treatments. This year the county bought two snow-removal trucks that have a mid-mount expandable wing, which is designed to extend outward and shovel multiple lanes at

one time. The trucks, which are meant to plow wide lanes such as Randall Road, can do the job that would take an ordinary plow truck two or three trips, according to Conrad Schultz, maintenance worker with the McHenry County DOT. “They have a lot better handling and allow you to change the angle of how you plow,” said Schultz, who is one of more than 30 McHenry County DOT employees, all of whom work Nov. 15 to April 15 with zero vacation days. “We can cover twice the ground.” The mid-mount wing also has a camera – much like a rear backup camera – that the driver can monitor to make sure the entire road is getting plowed. Cameras are also used on the trucks to take still photographs that are sent back to DeVries at DOT headquarters to get a real-time look at the road conditions. Part of the job for McHenry County DOT workers is forecasting what the winter will look like, and DeVries’ early predictions are than the county will see 40 inches of snow this year, up slightly from the yearly average of 37.5. And if snow started falling – much to the dismay of some residents – DeVries’ team would be ready to hit the streets. “We would be pretty ready to go if anything happened today,” he said. “Country trucks would be out as soon as it started.”

including Facebook, Twitter, TV and movies; online homework is an exception. The policy statement cites a 2010 report that found U.S. children ages 8 to 18 spend an average of more than seven hours daily using some kind of entertainment media. Many kids now watch TV online and many send text messages from their bedrooms after “lights out,” including sexually explicit images by cellphone or Internet, yet few parents set rules about media use, the policy says. “I guarantee you that if you have a 14-year-old boy and he has an Internet connection in his bedroom, he is looking at pornography,” Strasburger said. The policy notes that three-quarters of kids ages 12 to 17 own cellphones; nearly all teens send text messages, and many younger kids have phones giving them online access. “Young people now spend more time with media than they do in school – it is the leading activity for children and teenagers other than

sleeping,” the policy says. Mark Risinger, 16, of Glenview is allowed to use his smartphone and laptop in his room, and says he spends about four hours daily on the Internet doing homework, using Facebook and YouTube and watching movies. He said a two-hour Internet time limit “would be catastrophic” and that kids won’t follow the advice, “they’ll just find a way to get around it.” Strasburger said he realizes many kids will scoff at advice from pediatricians – or any adults. “After all, they’re the experts. We’re media-Neanderthals to them,” he said. But he said he hopes it will lead to more limits from parents and schools, and more government research on the effects of media. The policy was published online Monday in the journal Pediatrics. It comes two weeks after police arrested two Florida girls accused of bullying a classmate who committed suicide. Police say one of the girls recently boasted online about the bullying, and the local sheriff questioned why the suspects’ parents hadn’t restricted their Internet use. Risinger’s mom, Amy

Risinger, said she agrees with restricting kids’ time on social media but that deciding on other media limits should be up to parents. “I think some children have a greater maturity level and you don’t need to be quite as strict with them,” said Risinger, who runs a communications consulting firm. Her 12-year-old has sneaked a laptop into bed a few times and ended up groggy in the morning, “so that’s why the rules are now in place, that device needs to be in mom and dad’s room before he goes to bed.” Sara Gorr, a San Francisco sales director and mother of girls, ages 13 and 15, said she welcomes the academy’s recommendations. Her girls weren’t allowed to watch the family’s lone TV until a few years ago. The younger one has a tablet, and the older one has a computer and smartphone, and they’re told not to use them after 9 p.m. “There needs to be more awareness,” Gorr said. “Kids are getting way too much computer time. It’s bad for their socialization, it’s overstimulating, it’s numbing them.”

Vicky Smith gets 3 percent raise from board • MCC Continued from page A1 Ron Parrish said. “It’s a great job in a short time.” The merit-based system may only be used for this year as a committee is working on a long-term solution that could include 360-degree evaluation, which in-

cludes feedback from peers and subordinates, and a more exact formula to make sure every available dollar is distributed. Under the proposed plan, the leftover money can be distributed as a one-time bonus at the president’s discretion. Trustee Cynthia Kisser said the long-term solution

should distribute all the available money so the higher scoring of two employees both over the average receives more as opposed to the same 1.5 percent. The merit-based system will apply only to administrators and not college President Vicky Smith, who received a 3 percent raise from the board.

WOODSTOCK FIRE IS ‘SUSPICIOUS’ WOODSTOCK – A fire at a Woodstock apartment building has been deemed “suspicious,” according to the Woodstock Fire/Rescue District. Crews were called to a home in the 1200 block of Thomas Drive around 5 p.m. Sunday for a report of a structure fire, officials said. Firefighters found flames in a second-floor bedroom of a duplex in that area. A neighbor who called 911 told dispatchers that three children were inside the building at the time of the fire, Woodstock Fire Rescue Capt. Brendan Parker said. Crews searched the home, which was found vacant with no one living there. The fire spread to the attic, but it was under control in about 10 minutes, Parker said. No one was injured. Crews from several area fire departments assisted with the incident.

No interest in Huntley mill Significant work, developer are needed on historical downtown building By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO

News sent to your phone

sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Not a single developer has officially shown interest in redeveloping a 19th century mill in downtown Huntley, even after village officials extended a proposal deadline to Friday. Victor Narusis, the village’s business recruitment coordinator, said Huntley has yet to see a proposal to in-

Officials thought they had at least one proposal after they sent out an initial redevelopment request this sum-

mer. But the prospective developer ultimately withdrew plans, Narusis said. “We believe that some proposals will come, but we have yet to receive any,” he said. Huntley’s original deadline to find a developer was Sept. 30, but the Village Board extended it to Nov. 1 to see whether more people had interest in the former mill. Developers seemingly are not in-

terested, with only a few days left on the extended deadline. But Narusis said that a few developers have toured the two-and-a-half story building located at 11801 Main St. Developers also typically send formal proposals at the last minute, he said. “These things typically are submitted at the deadline without much

Cary prepares capital plan Intersection of Sunset, Crest drives eyed for drainage improvements By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com CARY – Storm drainage improvements at the intersection of Sunset and Crest drives are expected to cost about $1.1 million, according to the village’s proposed capital improvement plan. With the high price tag, the village has applied for a federal hazard mitigation grant through the Federal Emergency Management Agency. If ultimately approved, the village’s share of the Sunset and Crest improvements could be reduced to $269,000. Improvements at Sunset

and Crest include buying private properties in the area, which does not have adequate stormwater detention, according to the proposed capital improvement plan. The village is looking to carry out a project in that area to alleviate flooding, especially during major storms. The capital improvement plan is being put together as the village prepares its budget for fiscal 2014-15. If the village isn’t awarded federal money for the Sunset and Crest project, then a decision may need to be made on whether to hold

The Sunset and Crest improvements are listed in

the 2014 plan, along with improvements of about $1 million in roadway work, $1 million in water main work and $323,000 in ash tree removals, among other things. Clark said village staff is working on a facilities plan that would include a possible roof replacement at Village Hall. Trustee Bruce Kaplan said the alternative might be not performing road improvements for one year. “You have the same

Defendant in drug ring nabbed Last arrest related to Harvard bust By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com

Roger M. Pump 65, Ingleside Nancy A. Radermacher 56, Island Lake Ruth Elizabeth Walker 83, Harvard OBITUARIES on page B4

WOODSTOCK – The last defendant in an alleged drug ring run out of a Harvard bar was arrested over the weekend. A warrant was issued Oct. 17 for Antonio M. Figueroa, 31, 506 N. Second St. in Harvard, at which time he was placed on the

McHenry County Sheriff’s Office most wanted list. Authorities believed Antonio M. Figueroa had Figueroa fled McHenry County, but he was arrested Sunday in Harvard. Figueroa and seven others were charged with at least one count of delivery of a controlled substance for allegedly selling drugs out of KB’s Bar and Grill in

Harvard. Because the bar is within 1,000 feet of a school, all were charged with Class X felonies, which are punishable with between six and 30 years in prison. The arrests were the result of a yearlong investigation by the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office. In court documents, prosecutors said that deputies made at least eight cocaine buys from the individuals and observed drug money being placed into the bar’s cash register. Authorities have said

they confiscated 65 grams of cocaine, two codeine pills and $1,647 in cash. The drugs had a street value of $6,500. Figueroa remains in custody at the McHenry County Jail. His bond was set at $150,000. In what one defense attorney called “unconstitutional” and a “rare” move, the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office filed motions to inspect the source of each of the defendant’s bond

The Huntley Village Board last month extended its deadline until Nov. 1 for developers to submit their proposals on how to fix the historical downtown mill.

Village bought structure for $115,000 • HUNTLEY Continued from page B1 advanced notice,” Narusis said. “With developers, it usually is last minute.” The village bought the historical structure for $115,000 last year as part of its ongoing effort to revamp the look of its downtown. Local historians immediately lobbied village officials to preserve the building after they heard rumors

that officials had plans to demolish it and create additional parking spaces. Built in the late 1800s, the original mill belonged to W.G. Sawyer and John Kelley, two local businessman who were influential in developing Huntley during its infancy. A cash-for-gold business and a cleaning service most recently occupied the building when officials acquired it last year. In the interest of preservation, officials contracted

an outside firm this year to assess the work required to fix the building. The firm concluded that significant work is needed to bring the building up to code. A potential developer would also need to overhaul the building’s exterior, including a new roof, siding and windows. If no developer submits a proposal by Friday, board members would have to decide whether to continue trying to redevelop the building.

Clark said the village’s overall road conditions are in good condition, mainly because the municipality issued Build America Bonds in 2009 to carry out three years of road improvements. “Some communities do take a year off for various reasons,” Clark said. The village is proposing to remove 1,000 ash trees next year, which would eliminate all of the ash trees in the town’s parkways to prevent the emerald ash borer from spreading. The village has tree-removal rates frozen with a tree-removal company for the upcoming year, Public Works Director Cris Papierniak said. Other work includes performing maintenance on the village’s water tower along Cary-Algonquin Road. The work includes stripping and repainting the interior and exterior of the tank, among other things. The project is estimated to cost $450,000. Village officials also proposed spending $33,000 to have the infrastructure management system conduct a survey

Tony Pouliot demonstrates the goCrop app on his mobile phone in the cab of his combine on his farm in Westford, Vt. Farmers now can use smartphones and computers to monitor and modify what nutrients they add to their soil, thanks to the new computer app created by a University of Vermont researcher.

High-tech farmers sow results with apps Project funded with help of $400,000 USDA grant By LISA RATHKE The Associated Press WESTFORD, Vt. – A new cyber tool that helps map crops and monitor irrigation systems came to life after a University of Vermont researcher realized farmers just weren’t very good at keeping records. “They would guess a lot,” said Heather Darby, an agronomist from the University of Vermont Extension. “Or they’d write it down on little scrap pieces of paper or cigarette packs, like anything they had laying around they’d write it on, and then they’d show up for class, and we’d try to decipher all these little notes.” Noticing that farmers had grown accustomed to carrying cellphones, whether in the field, on tractors or in the barn, she developed the goCrop Web and mobile app. The project was awarded about $400,000 from the U.S. Department of Agriculture this spring to expand the app for use around the Northeast and California, where soil conditions are different, and add functions for mapping, grazing and pest management. Across the country, farmers are relying on new cyber tools to manage manure and fertilizer applications, monitor irrigation systems, coordinate harvests and check the weather and real-time agricultural markets. “The tech-savvy farmer is able to speed up the decision-making cycle and do his or her job much more effectively,” Ben Potter, technology editor for Farm Journal, wrote in an email. In Giltner, Neb., Zach Hunnicutt carries his iPad and smartphone wherever he goes on his farm, and he uses a combination of apps. He said he used his iPad to monitor humidity levels during a soybean harvest Thursday at the 2,500-acre farm. The tools digitize information

Tony Pouliot and his daughter, Allysson, harvest a corn field in Westford, Vt. More than 50 Vermont farmers now are using goCrop, a smartphone app created with help from $400,000 grant. that used to be kept in notebooks and stores it in the cloud, where it can be shared with fellow farmers and can’t blow out of a tractor and get lost. The FieldView app interfaces with their tractor and planter at planting time and creates maps to reference what hybrids they’ve planted where. SoilWeb tells him what soil type he’s standing on and what’s near him so he doesn’t have to look at maps or read through the legend. The farm also can control their irrigation pivots from a smartphone. From a practical standpoint, Hunnicutt said, the app helps farmers check irrigation systems without burning fuel and tells them when something shuts down. It also lets farmers know that crops are getting water when they need it, he said.

“So there’s a definite bottom line improvement just straight from those applications,” he said. According to Josh Flint, editor of Prairie Farmer, which focuses primarily on Illinois agriculture, one of the latest developments is the use of aerial drones to scout fields faster. The 50 or so dairy farmers in Vermont using the goCrop app, which costs about $250, can get crop reports to see what they’ve done to each field for the whole year. They can print and send their records to the state instead of sitting down at the end of the year and compiling notes. The app could also save them money by preventing farmers from wasting fertilizer. “So next year when we get ready to spread manure, I’ll have everything all documented, and it will tell us how many loads of manure we can put on,” said Tony Pouliot, who farms with his father in Westford. “Then when we come in to plant the corn, I know how much fertilizer to use because of the program. ...There’s no guessing. It’s all straight forward.” Farmers also can use the app while cutting corn or grass in the field. “In the field chopping, you add the number of takes. You can just keep hitting the tab on your iPhone. That’s another load, that’s another. It’s kind of neat,” said Nancy Fiske, of Windfall Acres Farm in Franklin. But the big benefit is reducing the need for manual record keeping. “It’s a constant challenge to get dairy farmers to record keep at all,” said Richard Kersbergen, a University of Maine extension professor who says the state is planning to evaluate and potentially revise its program for managing nutrients on farms and find alternate ways for farmers to meet the law. “GoCrop would definitely be a potential useful tool in that manner.”

Apple’s iPhone sales rise, but 4Q earnings fall SAN FRANCISCO – Apple’s latest quarterly earnings fell 9 percent as more people bought the company’s lowerpriced iPhones and iPads. The company’s fourthquarter results announced Monday included early sales of the latest iPhones released late last month. The models helped Apple increase its iPhone sales from the same time last year. But the average price that Apple fetched for its iPhones declined to extend a recent trend that has trimmed the company’s profit margin and depressed its stock price. This marks the third consecutive quarter that Apple’s earnings have dropped from the previous year. Apple earned $7.5 billion, or $8.26 per share, during the three months ending Sept. 28. That compared to income of $8.2 billion, or $8.67 per share, last year. The latest quarterly earnings topped the average estimate of $7.92 per share among analysts polled by FactSet. Revenue rose 4 percent to $37.5 billion – about $600 million above analyst predictions.

Signed contracts to buy U.S. homes plunge WASHINGTON – The number of Americans who signed contracts to buy existing homes fell in September to the lowest level in nine months. The decline reflects higher mortgage rates and home prices that have made purchases more costly. The National Association of Realtors said Monday that its seasonally adjusted pending home sales index dropped 5.6 percent last month from August to a reading of 101.6.

50 Cent gets probation

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Tuesday, October 29, 2013 • Section B • Page 6

Rapper 50 Cent has been sentenced to three years of probation after pleading no contest to vandalism in a case filed after an alleged fight with his ex-girlfriend earlier this year. Los Angeles City Attorney’s spokesman Frank Mateljan says the rapper, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, was ordered Monday to pay $7,100 in restitution and take a year of domestic violence classes. Jackson previously had pleaded not guilty to destroying items in his ex-girlfriend’s condo during a June argument. The woman had accused Jackson of breaking down a door and kicking her, but the domestic violence charge was dropped Monday. Mateljan says the rapper must comply with a restraining order.

ABC apologizes for Kimmel joke

Police: Brown threw punches Chris Brown is accused of punching a man who says he tried to get into a photo with the singer outside a hotel, according to police, the latest legal trouble for the Grammy Award-winning artist. The 24-year-old singer appeared in court Monday on a felony assault charge. Another man, Christopher Hollosy, also was charged with felony assault in the altercation that started just before 4:30 a.m. Sunday, police say. It happened near the W Hotel, not far from the White House. Police would not say how Hollosy and Brown may have known each other. The altercation began after the man tried to get into a picture with Brown and two other people, according to his account in the police report, which also quotes the man as saying Brown told him, “I’m not down with that gay s---” and “I feel like boxing.” The exact context of Brown’s remarks was not immediately clear. The man told police Brown punched him in the face, and police say the area around his nose was swollen and bruised. Another man stepped between them and also punched the man before grabbing Brown by the arm and leading him toward the tour bus, according to the report. Brown and Hollosy, 35, were being held pending a court hearing Monday.

ABC is apologizing for a segment of “Jimmy Kimmel Live” in which a child joked about killing Chinese people to help erase the U.S. debt.

The event was a traveling offshoot of the Minneapolis Walker Art Center’s festival of the same name, which now draws 10,000 attendees who ooh and ahh at famous felines such as Keyboard Cat, Grumpy Cat, Henri the morose, existentialist le Chat Noir and nameless kitties trying to jump into cardboard boxes with hilarious results. The inaugural festival, held last year, received more than 10,000 video submissions from fame-seeking cats – or at least their owners.

Lil Bub, it turns out, is a “perma-kitten,” that is, a full-grown cat that has stayed small and kept kitten-like features. On top of that, she has an extra toe on all of her paws and her tongue is always out because her teeth never grew in.

BULLS AT HEAT, 7 P.M. TUESDAY, TNT, AM-1000

Rose’s return the biggest since MJ’s Guard has a chance to be as good as he was in MVP season I’m trying to picture Derrick Rose faxing a news release that announces his comeback, but it’s impossible. He seems too self-effacing, and he probably thinks the fax machine and the Pony Express are from the same era, which, by the way, they are. Since the NBA schedule came out in early August, we’ve known that Rose would make his looooonnnnnggggg-awaited return to real action Tuesday night, in the Bulls’ season

VIEWS Rick Morrissey opener against the Heat in Miami. No surprise. It’s akin to the news that Christmas will fall on Dec. 25 this year. So let’s not confuse Rose’s reappearance with the second coming of Michael Jordan, which shouldn’t be confused with the third coming of MJ, that sad stopover in, Washington D.C. we’d all rather forget. We had little inkling that March 18, 1995, would be different from any other day, until Jordan’s agent faxed one of the most famous statements in

Chicago sports history: “I’m back.” Jordan was done with baseball and suddenly, stunningly ready to rejoin the Bulls. The darkness lifted. Three more NBA championships would follow. But I think we all can agree that Rose’s return is the biggest comeback in Chicago since Jordan tacitly admitted he couldn’t hit a curveball. And surely we can agree this moment is very, very cool. There might even be some thawing among the people who turned on Rose last season when he refused to play on his surgically repaired left knee. I’ll admit to something now that doesn’t normally happen: I’ve changed my mind. Or, to be more

precise, Rose has changed my mind about the Bulls this season. The about-face is based on … I’m having trouble spitting out the words … eight preseason games. Crazy, I know. Preseason games have the weight and meaning of navel lint. But what I’ve seen from Rose in the preseason makes me believe the Bulls are better than the Pacers and have enough talent to give the two-time defending champion Heat reason to worry. Eight preseason games? Perhaps I have lost my mind. But it looks as if Rose’s knees can carry an entire team.

PR nearly caught overlooking D-C Wolves forced to rally after losing Game 1 By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO mmontemurro@shawmedia.com CARPENTERSVILLE – Prairie Ridge committed a nearly season-ending flaw when the Wolves stepped onto the court Monday for its Class 4A Dundee-Crown Regional quarterfinal match against Dundee-Crown. The No. 3-seeded Wolves admittedly entered the match overlooking a Chargers squad, seeded sixth in the regional, that they already had beaten twice this season. That mentality forced the Wolves to battle back against D-C after the Chargers won the first game. Prairie Ridge’s experience and improved play helped the Wolves recover for a 19-25, 25-19, 25-18 win. They advance to Tuesday’s regional semifinal against No. 2 Crystal Lake Central. “We kind of started off slow because we were like, ‘OK, we’ve beaten them before it won’t be that hard,’ ” junior middle blocker Ali Witt said. “But then we realized we need to work. Every team in the postseason is going to work and they’re not going to give it to us. Nobody wants to lose.”

In the decisive third game, Prairie Ridge (21-15) jumped to a 7-1 lead as three different players tallied kills for the Wolves – part of a diverse offensive attack that featured four players finishing with at least six kills. Witt delivered the match-winning block to keep the Wolves’ season alive. “In the third game we said, ‘Hey, you guys have to go out there and see what you can do,’ ” D-C coach Christine Hopkins-Muehl said. “We knew we were underdogs. We knew it was the more farfetched version of our little fairytale, but we were hoping to knock somebody out and surprise some people.” Lathan Goumas – lgoumas@shawmedia.com An energized D-C team stunned Prairie Ridge during its Game 1 victory, Scoreboard never trailing after it took a 9-8 lead off a Wolves’ hitter error.

WOODSTOCK – Considering how young her Richmond-Burton volleyball team is, Laura Karamitos has gotten used to what seems to be a constant case of built-in jitters. So when the Rockets fell behind Harvard in the second game of their Class 3A Woodstock North Regional quarterfinal match Monday night, Karamitos knew they’d have to find a way to play through some adversity. She didn’t expect a sophomore would help turn the tide. Setter Jessie Duncan served 11 straight points, sparking No. 3-seeded R-B in a come-from-behind 25-22 victory that closed out the Rockets’ sweep and moved them into Tuesday’s 6:30 p.m. regional semifinal against No. 2-seeded Marian Central at Woodstock North. “I just wanted to get the momentum back,” Duncan said. “It was frustrating me that we couldn’t get back (on track). It was the little things we were messing up on. We know we’re going to make mistakes, but we have to get over it.” The Rockets (23-13) handled Harvard, 25-19, in the opening set, building around senior Ali Frantti, who led R-B with 16 kills and six digs. But Harvard quickly jumped out to an 11-3 lead to start the second game and build its advantage to 16-8 when Duncan settled in. By the time she was finished, R-B led 19-17, then the two teams battled back and forth before the Rockets

WORLD SERIES, GAME 5: RED SOX 3, CARDINALS 1

Lester, Red Sox move closer to crown By BEN WALKER The Associated Press ST. LOUIS – Jon Lester pitched the Boston Red Sox within a whisker of yet another World Series championship. Lester bested Adam Wainwright once again, journeyman David Ross hit a tiebreaking double in the seventh inning and the Red Sox downed the St. Louis Cardinals, 3-1, on Monday night to take a 3-2 Series edge. David Ortiz delivered his latest big hit, too, sending this bearded band of Red Sox back to Fenway Park with a chance to clinch their third crown in

a decade. Not since 1918 has Boston won the title at its own ballpark. “The fact is we’re going home,” manager John Farrell said. “Going back to a place that our guys love to play in, in front of our fans. “This atmosphere here, these three games, has been phenomenal. We know it’s going to be equal to that, if not better. And we’re excited about going home in the position we are,” he said. John Lackey gets the first chance to win it Wednesday night against St. Louis rookie sensation Michael Wacha. A Cardinals victory would set up a most spooky proposition for

Game 6 St. Louis at Boston, 7:07 p.m. Wednesday, Fox both teams – Game 7 on Halloween night. Ortiz enjoyed even more success in Game 5 after moving up from cleanup to the third slot. He is 11 for 15 (.733) in this Series with two homers, six RBIs and four walks. He left after legging out a hit, and Farrell said the slugger is OK. Lester enhanced his reputation as an October ace with ev-

ery pitch. He allowed one run and four hits in 7⅔ innings, striking out seven without a walk. Nearly the same line he had in beating Wainwright in the opener. “I think the biggest thing is me and Rossy have had a good rhythm,” Lester said. “Early on, we just went back to our game plan from Game 1 and just fell back on that and really just tried to make them swing the bats early, and we were able to do that.” The lefty who’s won all three of his career World Series starts had just one scary inning, when Matt Holliday homered in the fourth, Carlos Beltran flied out to the wall

and Yadier Molina hit a liner. Other than that, Lester was sharp as a knife. “He’s just a stud,” said Ross, the backup catcher who gets paired with Lester. “We rely on him. That’s why he’s the ace of our staff, because he goes out and pitches like that.” Lester’s biggest brush with major trouble came well before his first pitch. He was getting loose near the warning track when a team of eight Clydesdales pulling a beer wagon came trotting by – it’s a Busch Stadium tradition and Lester stood aside to watch the horses. Koji Uehara got four outs for his second save. No crazy

Seahawks’ goal-line stand preserves win over Rams

Greene 1st in line to fill in for Briggs

ST. LOUIS – The Seattle Seahawks completed a lousy night for St. Louis sports fans. Russell Wilson threw two touchdown passes to Golden Tate, and the Seahawks (7-1) made a dramatic goal-line stand in the final minute to preserve a 14-9 victory over the Rams (3-5) on Monday night – less than an hour after the Cardinals lost to the Red Sox in the World Series just up the street.

World Series ratings up over 2012 but behind NFL ST. LOUIS – Boston’s 4-2 win over St. Louis in Game 4 of the World Series drew a slightly higher rating than San Francisco’s title clincher last year but was topped by Green Bay’s 44-31 win over Minnesota in a regular-season NFL game. Nielsen Media Research said Monday the game on Fox received a 9.4 rating and 15 share and was seen by an average of 16 million viewers. The rating was up 6 percent from the 8.9 for San Francisco’s 4-3, 10-inning victory at Detroit last year.

He’s charged with second-degree murder, manslaughter, aggravated assault and aggravated battery in the death of Tyrese Robert Ruffin. Patterson is the boyfriend of Tyrese’s mother.

N.Y. letter: MLB seeks dismissal of A-Rod lawsuit NEW YORK – Lawyers for Major League Baseball are seeking a speedy dismissal of an Alex Rodriguez lawsuit accusing the league and commissioner Bud Selig of trying to drive him out of baseball, according to a letter sent to a judge Monday.

Jordan Siev, a lawyer for Rodriguez, wrote in a joint letter to the judge from lawyers on both sides that MLB lawyers planned to ask that the lawsuit be dismissed.

Bonds asks appeals court to reconsider conviction SAN FRANCISCO – Major League Baseball’s all-time home run leader Monday asked a federal appeals court to reconsider its refusal to overturn his felony obstruction conviction.

A three-judge panel of the 9th Circuit upheld Bonds’ conviction in September. – Wire reports

endings this time, either, after one night with an obstruction call and the next with Uehara’s game-finishing pickoff. The Cardinals went quickly in the ninth, and now need two wins in Boston. They overcame a 3-2 deficit at home to beat Texas for the 2011 title. “The guys know what we have to do,” manager Mike Matheny said. “We have to play the game. They have to lock arms, trust each other and play the game the right way. Most of it is going to be the mentality of not buying into any kind of stats, any kind of predictions, any kind of odds. And go out and play the game.”

Planning for Pack begins Trestman does not see early return for Cutler Remember when you were in grade school and you’d go away for spring break for a week, only to have it end knowing you’d have to go back to school for at least a couple more months? That was Monday at Halas Hall. And just like that first day back at school, Monday was the time to catch up on what and how everybody did during their short vacations. Next Almost every day at Green Bay, 7:40 p.m. Monday, the next few weeks ESPN, WCIU, AM-780, 105.9-FM will have some focus on Jay Cutler and how quickly he might get back on the field. Bears coach Marc Trestman told us Monday, “I am encouraged by his sense for how he is improving. That is a positive sign. I think we have to stay within the framework that the doctors gave us and we’ll see where he is next week.” Strangely, the Bears seem to have a better sense of where Cutler is than cornerback Charles Tillman. “[Tillman worked out here in individual,” Trestman said. “He didn’t practice

So, I think the No. 1 way we can improve is by guys just paying attention to their job and not trying to make up for a younger guy or trying to do too much.” Although the Bears did sign veteran linebacker Larry Grant, the coaches know there aren’t many reinforcements waiting in the wings.

Who is LB Larry Grant? 1

Who is new Bears linebacker Larry Grant? The 6-foot-1, 251pound Grant has appeared in 66 games with 11 starts over five seasons with St. Louis (2008 to 2010) and San Francisco (2011 and 2012), collecting 64 tackles, five sacks, four forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, five pass breakups and 29 special teams stops. He is ideally suited to play inside linebacker in a 3-4 defense, but can fill in at any of the three spots for the Bears. He’d be limited at Lance Briggs’ Will (weak side) linebacker spot, but remember, behind Khaseem Green the Bears also have Jerry Franklin, who they elevated from the practice squad a couple weeks ago. WLB is his best spot. today. He says he feels better. So, that is the only answer I can give you right now. I am not trying to keep anything from you.” For Trestman and his staff, the main order of business as they worked, while the players rested, was a ton of self-scouting and trying to figure out where and how they can get better with the players they will have. The coach’s main takeaway was: “We know we’ve got to control the football and time of possession. We’ve got

’Skins’ Meriweather responds to Marshall By JOSEPH WHITE The Associated Press ASHBURN, Va. – After saying he’s going to “take peoples’ knees out” to avoid another suspension for hits to the head, Washington Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather struck another blow – declaring that “people who beat their girlfriends should be kicked out of the league.” Meriweather’s comments

were a retort referencing the checkered domestic violence past of Bears receiver Brandon Marshall, who last week suggested that players such as Meriweather should per- Brandon haps be “tak- Meriweather en out of the game completely” to make the game safer.

“Everybody got their opinion,” Meriweather said Monday. “If he feel like, you know, I need to be kicked out of the league, I feel like people who beat their girlfriends should be kicked out of the league, too. You tell me who you’d rather have – somebody who plays aggressive on the field, or somebody who beat up their girlfriend?” Marshall’s career has occasionally been overshad-

owed by off-the-field troubles, including multiple arrests after confrontations with a girlfriend when he was playing for the Denver Broncos. None of the arrests led to a conviction. Marshall declined comment Monday. Shortly after Meriweather’s comments, he tweeted: “There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing.”

LAKE FOREST – Khaseem Greene has appeared in one play on defense in his seven NFL games – and he committed a late-hit penalty. Starting Monday night, he’ll have plenty of opportunities to make up for that gaffe. Bears coach Marc Trestman said Greene has the first shot to replace Lance Briggs at the weak-side linebacker position. Briggs is out for about five more weeks with a shoulder injury. “Khaseem will certainly get a very good look here, No. 1, and we’ve got Jerry (Franklin) and we’ve Khaseem got Blake (Cos- Greene tanzo), and we just brought in (Larry) Grant, but we’ll start with Khaseem and we’ll see how the week goes,” Trestman said Monday after the Bears returned to practice, not yet committing to Greene getting the nod in Green Bay. “We’ve got a long way to go before we get started.” Greene’s work has been on special teams during the regular season, but he did get plenty of preseason snaps, when he led the team with 16 tackles, including two for a loss. “Right now, I’m just trying to compete and show the coaches I can do it. I always prepare as if something’s going to happen … and I have to go in,” Greene said. “I’m just preparing to be the starter. If it happens, it happens, if not, I’ll be ready if my number is called.” At Rutgers, Greene was a back-to-back Big East Defensive Player of the Year in 2011 and 2012 after moving to outside linebacker from free safety. The fourth-round pick is in line to fill Briggs’ shoes in primetime against the Packers. “I really watch and observe Lance a lot,” Greene said. “He’s a guy who’s had success for so many years, why not watch him? Why not try to take what he does and put it into what you do and make the best of it.” New, old backup: Jordan Palmer has returned to Halas Hall, where he is preparing to be Josh McCown’s backup until Jay Cutler returns. “I feel really blessed to be in a position to be back here and join a great team, a team that has a lot of success on the horizon, unbelievable talent and in my career, the best coaching staff I’ve ever been around. It’s humbling, but I’m very excited to come here and figure out a way to contribute,” he said. Quick hits: The Bears waived 2012 third-round pick Brandon Hardin off the injured reserve ... They signed Grant to fill the 53rd spot on their roster. They also brought Terrence Toliver back to the practice squad. He had seven catches for 63 yards in the preseason.

The Hurricanes (7-2) have played well and have a potent offense, but three offensive linemen – Michael Reckenburg, Tyler Sweeney and Josh Olsen – along with leading receiver Brett Olson, are battling injuries. Also, linebacker Chris Daniels hopes to return from a Grade 2 shoulder separation suffered in Week 7. No. 9-seeded Marian opens at 7 p.m. Friday at No. 8-seeded Bremen (8-1) in Midlothian. The Hurricanes have not lost a first-round

game in their past seven trips; they lost to Winnebago in the first round of 2003. “I have kind of mixed emotions,” Ed Brucker said. “We have five guys out and we’re hoping to get a couple back.” Olsen has a hand injury, while Olson, Rechenberg and Sweeney were out with concussions. With quarterback Billy Bahl, the area’s passing leader, and running back Ephraim Lee, who is second among area rushers, Marian can be difficult to defend. But the Hurricanes need their best linemen protecting Bahl and paving the way for Lee, especially in the playoffs. Familiar foes: Richmond-Burton and Evergreen Park have gotten to know each other pretty well over the past three seasons. R-B knocked out Evergreen Park, 7-0, in the

The Mustangs beat R-B, 34-27, last season. “The projections had us playing Evergreen Park, and that’s what happened,” Rockets coach Pat Elder said. “We’ve

seen them the last couple years, so it should be a pretty good football game. If familiarity helps with the preparations, I suppose that it does, they know what we’re all about and we know what they’re all about.”

R-B is in for the seventh consecutive season; the Rockets are 13-6 in the past six years. R-B was the final of 256 teams to qualify at 5-4 with 36 playoff points. “It’s great for our kids,” Elder said. “They’ve done a good job and we’ve got a great senior class. We’re glad to have the opportunity to play another game.” Bound for Stockton: Alden-Hebron coach John Lalor figured when his team reached 6-3 it not only qualified for the playoffs, but might have earned a high enough seed to avoid No. 1-ranked Stockton in the first round. The Giants were not that fortunate. They got a No. 8 seed in an area split into quadrants and play at No. 1 Stockton (9-0) at 1 p.m. Saturday. “I didn’t see that coming at all,” Lalor said. “We’ve been

out there before. We know the process.” The Giants lost to Stockton in 2003 (38-6) and 2004 (37-0), but A-H also got its first playoff victory in school history in 2005, 27-14, in a home game against the Bulldogs. Back in the playoffs: Hampshire (6-3) returns to the playoffs for the first time since 2008 as a No. 12 seed in Class 5A. The Whip-Purs play at No. 5 Kaneland (8-1) at 7 p.m. Friday. Hampshire fell to CaryGrove, 33-13, on Friday in a Fox Valley Conference crossover game. “We got punched in the nose a little at Cary-Grove,” Whips coach Dan Cavanaugh said. “I told our kids that teams don’t get much better than that. Kaneland’s very, very good. It’s a good program and they’ve been doing it a long time.”

When five senior linebackers departed his program after last season, Wisconsin-Oshkosh football coach Pat Cerroni knew he had plenty of roles to fill this fall. One of the biggest sources of pride this season for Cerroni has been Crystal Lake South graduate and starting middle linebacker Reese Dziedzic, a freshman. “His role is to replace an All-American linebacker,” Cerroni said. “And all he’s done after [seven] games is shown that he’s one heck Reese Dziedzic of a football player. He’s such a physical player, and he’s smart. He’s embraced [the role].” Dziedzic, playing in the same spot and wearing the same No. 8 jersey as graduated fourth-team All-American Taylor Goodman, is the leading tackler this fall for Oshkosh (6-1) with 57 stops, including 6.5 tackles for loss. Because of NCAA roster limits, Cerroni said Dziedzic and several other freshmen essentially were cut from the team to prepare for future roles this season. “We call it a blackshirt,” Cerroni said. While Oshkosh was going 13-1 last season and advancing to the semifinals of the NCAA Division III playoffs, Dziedzic said he was able to improve his strength and get adjusted to college. “Taking that year off, I got settled in nicely, made a good group of friends,” he said. “It really took the stress off of football. It’s an overwhelming process just going away to college.” Dziedzic said Cerroni’s honesty during the recruiting process and when the freshmen arrived at Oshkosh last fall was a draw and aided the transition to school. “He told us right away that [he freshmen] probably wouldn’t get any reps,” Dziedzic said. “I understood. As soon as the season was over, he said it was our turn.” Cerroni praised Dziedzic for his patience. “I think he looked at the situation and said, ‘I could be a four-year starter,’ ” Cerroni said. Dziedzic’s first season as a starter has impressed plenty of people around the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. “Our job is to get him better,” Cerroni said. “That’s going to be hard to do. He has all the physical tools. And mentally, he’s so strong.” Dziedzic has three games of at least 10 tackles for theTitans, who were ranked ninth last week in D-III. On Saturday, in the team’s first defeat of the season, Dziedzic had seven tackles in a 17-14 loss to No. 5 UW-Whitewater. The loss ended Oshkosh’s 18-game regular-season winning streak. Other linebackers have welcomed Dziedzic’s impact as well, including senior starter

ON CAMPUS Barry Bottino

Sean Mayerbock from Chicago. “He’s been a great leader for all of the freshmen,” Dziedzic said. “I knew right away he’d be a guy that I want to play with.” Dziedzic’s friendship with Mayerbock also has one important added benefit. “He gives me a ride to practice every day,” Dziedzic said. Knox record holder: Crystal Lake South grad Derek Mortensen tied for the D-III Knox College football program’s all-time touchdowns lead Saturday with two rushing scores in a 48-24 loss to Illinois College. Mortensen’s 40 TDs ties Tom Neagle’s record total. With 111 yards Saturday, Mortensen also tied the school record with seven 100-yard rushing games in a season. Mortensen became Knox’s career rushing yardage leader Oct. 5 with a 117-yard effort in a 37-29 loss to Ripon. The senior running back surpassed Kevin Megli’s record of 3,177 yards in the third quarter against Ripon. He now has 3,552 career yards. Mortensen has rushed for 916 yards this season and nine touchdowns for the Prairie Fire (1-7). His season-best 141 yards came Sept. 14 against St. Norbert. Hand it to C.J.: Iowa senior tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz has caught a pass in 26 consecutive games, the second-longest streak in the Football Bowl Subdivision for his position. On Saturday, Fiedorowicz’s 8-yard scoring catch in overtime lifted Iowa (5-3) past Northwestern, 17-10. A Johnsburg grad, Fiedorowicz has caught all eight of his career TD passes during the streak, including a 2-yard score Oct. 19 at Ohio State. Fiedorowicz was one of 29 players named to the John Mackey Award’s midseason watch list. The Mackey Award is given annually to the nation’s best tight end. MCC accolades: Huntley grad Sam Zobott, a junior defender at NAIA Viterbo, won the Midwest Collegiate Conference Women’s Soccer Defensive Player of the Week Award on Oct. 21. Zobott has helped the V-Hawks (13-3) limit opponents to 11 goals this season. The team, which had its 11-match winning streak snapped Saturday, upset No. 16 Ashford, 2-1, on Oct. 19. The victory was Viterbo’s first in school history against a top-20 team. Dubuque dandy: Senior quarterback Bryan Bradshaw of D-III Dubuque passed for 311 yards and five touchdowns to help his team knock off previously unbeaten Coe, 38-14, on Oct. 19. Bradshaw’s efforts earned him Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Football Player of the Week for offense. Bradshaw, a Prairie Ridge grad, transferred to Dubuque from D-II Winona State. He has thrown 10 TDs in the past three weeks for the Spartans (4-3).

Bowyer has Richmond mess in rearview mirror CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Clint Bowyer fielded fan questions for nearly 30 minutes Monday at the NASCAR Hall of Fame, where the topics covered everything from his recent appearance on an episode of “Duck Dynasty” to his displeasure with people who text while driving. Not a single person asked him about Richmond. Finally, nearly two months after Bowyer spun late in the race that set the field for the Sprint Cup-deciding Chase, the scandal finally is fading into his rearview mirror. His actions in the Sept. 7 race triggered a massive chain reaction that knocked the wind out of NASCAR as it headed into its championship portion of the season. Michael Waltrip Racing was crippled with the loss of a longtime sponsor, and Martin Truex Jr. and 15 percent of the MWR workforce were given pink slips. Bowyer, one of the most popular drivers inside the garage, suddenly found he was considered Public Enemy No. 1 among a fan base that only in the past few years had begun to appreciate his talent and humor. “I was in middle of a storm, certain kind of storm. A four-lettered storm is what I’d call that,” Bowyer said Monday. It took a toll on the freewheeling country boy from Kansas. He was second in the points heading into the Richmond race and thought he’d challenge for a championship this year. Then came the fallout from Richmond, where NASCAR said MWR deliberately manipulated the finish of the race in an attempt to get Truex into the 12-driver Chase field. He said he quickly figured out the final laps at Richmond had created a firestorm that wasn’t going away anytime soon. “I didn’t that night. But then (figured out), ‘This is not good,’ ” Bowyer said. “I was immediately crushed because of the sport and what I care and believe about this sport. It was tough.” The Chase was effectively over for Bowyer before it began. He opened with a ninth-place finish at Chicago, where points leader Matt Kenseth won, and was 17th the next week at New Hampshire, where Kenseth won again. Just like that, Bowyer was 10th in the

BLACKHAWKS 5, WILD 1

Hawks rebound with blowout By MARK LAZERUS

Chicago Sun-Times ST. PAUL, Minn. – The Blackhawks didn’t solve all their problems in one night with Monday night’s 5-1 victory over the Minnesota Wild. But things are certainly looking up. Joel Quenneville’s revamped top two lines each produced goals, newcomer Brad Mills spearheaded a perfect penalty kill, Corey Crawford and the defense rebounded with a stellar effort, Patrick Sharp finally got going and the Hawks turned a tight game into their first laugher of the season. Brandon Saad had a highlight-reel goal and a highlight-reel assist, and Patrick Kane added

vs. Ottawa, 7 p.m. Tuesday, CSN, AM-720 a goal and an assist of his own. Brandon Pirri had two secondary assists in his first game at second-line center, and Crawford finished with 29 saves. Despite two straight losses, including one to the Wild on Saturday night at the United Center, the Hawks were loose and energetic at the morning skate. It carried over to the game. Sharp, who hadn’t scored in five games and had just one goal all season despite creating as many

chances as anyone on the team, finally broke through late in the first period. New linemate Marian Hossa worked the puck free behind the net, and Sharp made a nifty move at the corner of the crease to tuck the puck in behind Niklas Backstrom for a 1-0 Hawks lead. The calm first period gave way to a hectic second, as three goals were scored in the final nine minutes. The Wild had been controlling play and out-chancing the Hawks, but Crawford kept them at bay, stopping Nino Niederreiter twice – once with his mask. But red-hot Jason Pominville ripped a shot past Crawford from the right circle for his sixth goal in eight games. The play was set up when Duncan Keith got over-aggressive

BULLS AT HEAT

at the blue line, going for the hit on Mikael Granlund instead of the puck, freeing Granlund up to hit Pominville in stride. But the Hawks quickly responded with a pair of goals. First, Sheldon Brookbank scored his first goal – becoming the last Hawks regular to earn a point this season – when he one-timed a Kane feed off a Nick Leddy rebound past Backstrom. Less than two minutes later, Leddy scored on the power play, firing a shot from the point past Backstrom after Brent Seabrook made a terrific play at the other point to keep the puck in on a Wild clearing attempt. It was Leddy’s first goal of the season, and his first goal against the Wild.

NBA PREVIEW

Rose calls James ‘the best’ New looks and a familiar

favorite for 2013-14

Guard changes his tune about 4-time MVP

BY BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press

By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com Numbers are great. AllStar Games, postseason awards, shoe commercials, all of it. Any player in the NBA would welcome it with open arms. But that championship hardware, that’s what really validates. So when Derrick Rose was asked Monday just how good four-time MVP LeBron James really is, it took a little prodding to reach a definitive answer. “He’s one of the best in the league,” Rose said. “His size, the way he passes the ball, he’s just an overall dangerous player and [Tuesday night], we’ve just got to make sure we stick him as a team.” When then asked if “one of the best” meant the best, Rose replied: “You can call it the best. He won a championship, he’s got two under him, so for sure, he’s the best.” Rose had a slightly different answer in July, when he was asked by CNN who the best player in the NBA was right now. “Derrick Rose,” was his response. Obviously, Rose’s opinion has changed the past few months. Or maybe it was just gamesmanship on the eve before the Bulls open the 2013-14 regular season in Miami. Either way, the scoreboard will read Bulls-Heat at the end of the night, but all eyes will be on James and Rose. Just don’t let Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau know that. “It’s not about Derrick and LeBron,” Thibodeau said. “It’s about the Heat and the Bulls. It’s a team game. We expect him to do the right things.” Nice thought, but just not

Rose has accomplished almost everything he’s wanted to entering his sixth season, but that championship ring eludes him. James is a big reason why. As a matter of fact, Rose hasn’t just been playing second fiddle to James when it comes to champagne showers and holding up Larry O’Brien Championship Trophies, either. In early October, the NBA announced its top selling jerseys worldwide. James first, Rose second. Last year, Rose was the cover boy of the popular NBA2K video game. Now, it’s James on the cover. “No, no, not bitter at all,” Rose said with a laugh last week, when asked about losing the cover of a game that he still plays. “He won the championship, so he deserves to get every cover.”

That doesn’t mean Rose isn’t looking to get that cover back, and the easiest way to do it is to win it all. Something Rose feels like he and his teammates are equipped to do this season. Even in missing all of last season as he recovered from a torn left ACL, Rose feels like there is something special about this year. “For sure,’’ Rose said, when asked if this was the best roster he’s been a part of. “No disrespect to any of my old teammates, but it seems like we’re way more focused this year.” They’re going to need to be. Thrones aren’t just handed over. They need to be taken.

Excitement for opener off the charts • MORRISSEY Continued from page C1 How he played in the preseason games has ratcheted up the anticipation for Tuesday’s game. If you saw the explosiveness his legs produced this month, you know the preseason games weren’t meaningless. They went beyond offering peace of mind. They let you know he was the best player on the floor in each of those games, the way he used to be. He’s going to get better the more he plays with his teammates. I didn’t expect this when camp opened. I expected lots of rust. I expected kinks in need of being worked out. Turns out my expectations were dumb and dumber. Have you seen Rose rocket to the rim lately? It’s why the excitement for Tuesday night is off-thecharts ridiculous. He has the chance to be as good as he was in his MVP season

of 2010-11. Just to be clear: a chance. Here are three caveats for the Bulls this season, none having to do with Rose’s leg falling off: • Joakim Noah has to stay healthy. It sounds simple, yet it has been anything but. He has had just one injury-free Joakim Noah season in the past four – the 2011-12 lockout-shortened edition. When Rose and Noah are on the court together, the Bulls usually win. Noah will play Tuesday if his groin injury cooperates. • Somebody has to score besides Rose, Carlos Boozer and Luol Deng. Same as it ever was. Let’s say Rose matches his MVP season by averaging 25 points a game, and Boozer and Luol Deng each averages 16 points a game. Where are the Bulls? Stuck in 2010-11, unless other players step up offensively.

I’m talking to you Jimmy Butler, Taj Gibson and Noah. • Coach Tom Thibodeau has to ease up on his troops. Loading players with heavy minutes in the regular season is counterproductive. This isn’t the ranting of a columnist. It’s a self-evident truth. The Bulls have been worn down every postseason under Thibodeau. But enough of that for now. Fresh slate, and all that. Butler has gotten better every season, and there’s no reason to think that’s going to stop in his third year in the league. Mike Dunleavy is going to be Kyle Korver but perhaps without Korver’s ability to run around screens as quickly. The point guard figures to be pretty good. The team had Rose’s back last season. Now it’s his turn to give back.

• Rick Morrissey is a Chicago Sun-Times columnist. Write to him at rmorrissey@suntimes.com.

Dwight Howard moved on and Derrick Rose came back, though Kobe Bryant won’t quite yet. Nine first-time coaches are coming in and David Stern soon will head out. With different looks all around the NBA in 2013-14, one familiar sight remains: LeBron James and the Miami Heat are entering another season as the team to beat. The two-time defending champions will collect their rings Tuesday night, then open against the Bulls, who with a healthy Rose might be the team that can unseat the Heat. Or maybe it’s San Antonio or Indiana, both a game away last year – actually, the Spurs were just seconds away – from finishing off Miami. Perhaps it’s the Nets or Clippers, after both picked up pieces of the old Celtics that had the Heat’s respect but not their number. If someone does dethrone King James, it won’t be because he was satisfied with two titles and lost his edge. “When the hunger is gone, I’m going to give it up,” James said. “I’ve got a talent and I’m going to take full advantage of it. So I’m hungry. “I love the game. There’s nothing I would do more than play this game of basketball. So the championships are all great, but I’m playing for more than that. I’ve got a bigger calling than that.” If he means becoming the best ever, he might be on his way. With four MVP trophies and no noticeable weaknesses, the gap with his peers is getting larger and the one with the greats before him is shrinking. “He’s the best on the planet right now. I don’t know what you can do, but just hope that he misses,” said Nets coach Jason Kidd, one of the nine coaches getting his first opportunity. In total, 13 teams changed coaches. James did miss in the closing seconds of Game 6 of the NBA Finals, but the Heat got the rebound to set up Ray Allen’s tying 3-pointer, pulled it out in overtime and won Game 7 to deny the Spurs a fifth title. San Antonio might get another chance to finish the job, or might not even be the best team in Texas after Howard joined James Harden in Houston. Howard bolted after one unfulfilling season in Los Angeles, where he and Bryant never found a working partnership. The center already seems happier and healthier in Houston, where he and Harden can build a potent inside-outside tandem. As for Bryant, he’ll watch the Lakers’ opener, and who knows how much more, while he continues to rehab from a torn Achilles’ tendon. Questions over how well he can play at 35 after such a serious injury, along with Howard’s departure, created unusually low expectations for the Lakers. Instead, the buzz in Los Angeles is about the Clippers, who hired Doc Rivers to coach while Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett went to Brooklyn after Boston’s breakup. That also could make both longtime losers not only the current kings of their cities,

Here are five other things to watch around the NBA this season: Sitting speedsters: While Rose returns after sitting out last season with a torn ACL, Russell Westbrook and Rajon Rondo remain out recovering from knee surgeries. A healthy Westbrook makes Oklahoma City a title contender while Rondo could help the Celtics exceed expectations – or perhaps become the next player they trade. Up and comers: They’re not ready to contend for a title, but keep an eye on New Orleans, Washington and Cleveland, all with dynamite young

Adam Silver replaces the retiring Stern as commissioner on Feb. 1, exactly 30 years after Stern took office. Silver has done much of the heavy lifting for years, but he’ll be replacing one of the greatest executives sports has seen. “I’m excited for the league and for the future, and for the fact that having been at the league now for 36 years, we’ve reached this point and there’s a really extraordinary executive in Adam ready to take it to the next level,” Stern said. Summer stories: Business will really pick up after the next NBA champion is crowned. Kansas freshman Andrew Wiggins, should he decide to enter the draft, could become the most sought-after prospect in years. Free agency then will open July 1 with James and Carmelo Anthony perhaps set to top the class. Who wins? The Heat are the choice of everyone from odds makers to the executives who voted in the NBA.com general managers survey. But they were enormous favorites last season after a 27-game winning streak during a 66win regular season and almost fell. This time, there’s even more teams capable of finally knocking them off. “They are the favorites, but I don’t think they’re the heavy favorites,” Hall of Famer and TNT analyst Charles Barkley said. “Everybody’s picking the Heat right now, but there’s some teams, they’re going to have some stiff competition.”

Increased security at marathon

Putin says there will be no discrimination

New York City Marathon runners to honor Boston victims By RACHEL COHEN The Associated Press NEW YORK – Idrissa Kargbo threw his arms in the air to try to describe his excitement at learning of his entry into the New York City Marathon. The runner from Sierra Leone, who boarded a plane for the first time to come to the race, is the sort of smiling face that used to define bigcity marathons. On Monday, his story was only a brief delay to the questions about natural disasters and terrorist attacks. The NYC Marathon is Sunday, an event usually associated with cheering fans lining streets and giddy runners waving to the cameras. Then came last year’s race week. The initial announcement that the marathon would go on after Superstorm Sandy prompted outrage from many New Yorkers at the prospect of diverting resources to a sporting event amid so much de-

“We hope the day can be one that honors, remembers those hurt and still suffering, and we can provide for the city and for Boston and for people everywhere a back-to-basics celebrating the triumph of the human spirit.” Mary Wittenberg, NYRR president struction. The late decision to cancel the race occurred after many out-of-town entrants had already flown in. Then came April’s Boston Marathon. Two bombs exploded near the finish line, killing three people and injuring more than 260. This NYC Marathon will look different in some ways: more barricades, bag screenings, bomb-sniffing dogs. Runners who returned after signing up for last year will wear special orange wristbands. The whole field will sport yellow and blue ribbons for the

Boston victims. For race organizer New York Road Runners, the wish is for most everything else to recapture the innocence of marathons past. “We hope the day can be one that honors, remembers those hurt and still suffering, and we can provide for the city and for Boston and for people everywhere a back-to-basics celebrating the triumph of the human spirit,” NYRR President Mary Wittenberg said Monday.

budget doubled to about $1 million after the Boston attacks. Last week, 600 staffers and volunteer leaders were trained by police in areas such as how to deal with suspicious packages. “There’s no credible threats against the marathon,” said Peter Ciaccia, the race’s technical director. Until Sunday morning, it’s impossible to know whether fans will jam the sidewalks again. Or whether they will fret about their safety after Boston. Or still bristle at last year’s events in New York, when the city and marathon leaders were slow to come around to the consensus that holding the race was unseemly. Once it was canceled, NYRR donated about $1.5 million worth of supplies to storm victims. Wittenberg and many runners converged on Staten Island to help on what would have been race day.

SOCHI, Russia – President Vladimir Putin promised Monday that gay athletes and guests at the Winter Olympics in Sochi will feel at ease, seeking to assuage fears fueled by a recent Russian law banning gay “propaganda.” Speaking at a meeting with heads of Russian winter sports federations, which was also attended by visiting IOC President Vladimir Putin Thomas Bach, Putin said Sochi would be fully tolerant. “On my own and on your behalf, I have assured Mr. President (Bach) that we will do our best, and our athletes and fans will do their best too, so that both participants and guests feel themselves comfortable at Sochi Olympics regardless of their ethnicity,

race or sexual orientation,” Putin said. “I would like to underline that.” Preparations for the Sochi Olympics have been overshadowed by international criticism of a recently enacted Russian law outlawing “propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations among minors.” Many worry that law may apply to gay athletes and visitors to the games. The IOC has said it received assurances from the Russian government that it will respect the Olympic Charter. Human Rights Watch on Monday urged the IOC to call on Russia to repeal the law. “The Sochi Olympics risk being remembered as the anti-gay games, unless the IOC is willing to stand up and defend the principles of its own Olympic Charter,” Jane Buchanan, associate director for Europe and Central Asia at Human Rights Watch, said in a statement.

ILLINOIS FOOTBALL

Illini try to erase worst of Michigan State loss By DAVID MERCER The Associated Press CHAMPAIGN – If there is an advantage to having a young football team at Illinois, it might be that many of the players don’t know much about what last season’s 2-10 season was like. Younger players haven’t had as hard of a time letting go of Saturday’s 42-3 loss to Michigan State, coach Tim Beckman said Monday. The trouble lies elsewhere on the roster. “Probably more the older guys than the younger guys,” Beckman said. “Because they’ve been around the losing longer, the inconsistency.” The loss – offensive coordinator Bill Cubit called it a disaster – was in many ways worse than anything Illinois (3-4, 0-3 Big Ten) experienced last season, even during the nine-game losing streak that closed the season. Leading 3-0 early, Illinois then gave up 42 straight points to the Spartans, 28 of them in the second half. Getting over it, taking what good you can from it and moving on to Saturday’s game at Penn State (4-3, 1-2), isn’t easy, senior linebacker Jonathan Brown said. “It’s definitely a task. After a 42-3 loss, it’s tough for guys to see the good spots in that,” he said. There were some things Cubit said he’d like his offensive players to hang onto. Although they had one first down and 18 of their 128 yards of offense in the second half, the Illini moved the ball on the country’s top-rated defense for the first 30 minutes. The difference between the two halves, he said, wasn’t in anything the Spartans did to Illinois, but in the Illini’s execution. In an offensive meeting Sunday, “I called guys out –

Next at Penn State, 11 a.m. Saturday, ESPN, AM-560 ‘Hey, what happened here? How come we didn’t get this thing done?’ And every one of them took ownership – ‘Coach, that’s my fault.’ “When I walked out of that room, I felt pretty good about those kids,” Cubit said. Offensive tackle Corey Lewis was in that meeting. He said after the game that he would apply a rule Cubit that stresses putting a win or loss aside after 24 hours. But in this case, dwelling on the little things in the loss helped, Lewis said. “Coach Cubit just kind of showed us how easily that game could have been not 423,” he said. One of the key plays that that turned the game for Michigan State came at the expense of a freshman cornerback making his first start, and might have been the single-toughest moment for the Illini to put be-

hind them. Jaylen Dunlap tipped a second-quarter pass from Spartans quarterback Connor Cook to receiver Bennie Fowler, then appeared to get the ball a second time before it tumbled into the hands of the well-covered receiver for a touchdown. The Spartans went up 14-3, but the score capped a 99-yard drive that pounded the life out of the Illini. Defensive coordinator Tim Banks said he didn’t have to say much to the young cornerback. “So many people were consoling him, those types things,” Banks said. “I think he’s resilient. I think he’ll be fine.” Beckman said Monday he thinks his team, until Saturday, had been mostly fine, too. He made a point of telling reporters that the Illini until then had a record that was at least .500. “That’s one of the things we will look at as a football team is that the last nine weeks we have been successful, we have been winners,” Beckman said.

Train like a celebrity We all admire fit celebrities, but how do we get bodies like theirs without ponying up the money for a trainer? Getting fit actually starts at home and from the inside, Joel Harper said. Harper, a celebrity personal trainer who also does house calls in New York City (joelharperfitness. com), offers tips to all his clients on how to maximize their potential. “Listen to your inner dialogue,” Harper said. “Take responsibility for your thoughts. If you don’t like them, change them.” More advice from Harper: n After exercise, always stretch your muscles. “This is how you get long, lean muscles and remain tension-free,” Harper said. n Don’t get bored. Find something new to learn, such as Tai Chi, Zumba or CrossFit – whatever works for you and keeps you interested in physical fitness. n Get 7-8 hours of sleep a night. Harper said this is crucial in reaping the full benefits of exercise. n Get enough protein. Average daily protein needs (grams per day) are your body weight in pounds divided by 2.2, multiplied by 1.5. For instance, if you weigh 150 pounds, your average daily protein intake should be about 102 grams. n Get enough water. Similar to protein, take your body weight, divide by two and that’s how many ounces you should be drinking throughout the day. Exercising for an hour adds another 10 ounces of water you should consume. n Don’t eat if you aren’t hungry. n Be with happy people. “Dump negative influences and connect with proactive people that care,” Harper said. “You are the average of your five best friends.”

Exercising caution Carefully maintaining a fit routine keeps mom, baby healthy By WAYNE L. WESTCOTT More Content Now Although I do not have firsthand knowledge, I am confident that giving birth is at least as physically demanding as any athletic event or exercise session. And while there are many factors involved, the birthing process clearly requires high levels of strength, endurance, and flexibility. In many respects, it is undoubtedly the ultimate fitness experience. So it makes sense to prepare for childbirth just as you would for sports competition. You want to be in the best physical condition possible for the day of delivery. Unfortunately, this cannot be accomplished in a few exercise sessions during the final weeks of pregnancy. It is essential you begin your fitness program several months before the due date. It is much better to continue an exercise program during pregnancy rather than begin one after becoming pregnant. If you are thinking about having a child, it is time to start your fitness program. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, pregnant women who exercise regularly may continue to participate in appropriately adjusted sessions of physical activity, thereby maintaining cardiovascular and muscular fitness throughout pregnancy and post-partum. The presence of obstetric or medical complications may necessitate alterations to your conditioning program as determined by your obstetrician. At the very least, consider these important modifications to your standard exercise program:

Cardiovascular response After the first trimester of pregnancy, the back-lying (supine) position results in restricted return of blood to the heart because of the increasingly larger uterus. Consequently, exercises performed on the back should be phased out of the training program before the second trimester. These include trunk curls, bench presses, dumbbell flies and supine exercises on the Swedish ball.

Respiratory response Pregnant women may require 10 to 20 percent more oxygen utilization at rest, which means there is less oxygen available for aerobic activity. Pregnant women should adjust their exercise program to avoid training at high levels of fatigue or reaching physical exhaustion.

Mechanical response As the uterus and breasts become larger during pregnancy, a woman’s center of mass changes, which may adversely affect her bal-

ance, body control and movement mechanics in some physical activities. Consequently, exercises requiring balance and agility should be restricted, with special attention to activity selection during the third trimester of pregnancy. Any exercise with potential for even mild abdominal trauma should be avoided.

Metabolic response The need for more oxygen during pregnancy is paralleled by the need for more energy. Pregnant women typically use an extra 300 kilocalories a day to meet the increased metabolic requirements. During exercise, pregnant women also utilize carbohydrates at a higher

rate than women who are not pregnant. Therefore, pregnant exercisers must attain adequate intake of carbohydrate-rich foods through a balanced but expanded nutritional program.

Thermoregulatory response Pregnancy elevates a woman’s basal metabolic rate and heat production, which may be further increased by exercise. Exerciseassociated rises in body temperature may be most likely in the first trimester of pregnancy. During this period, pregnant exercisers should facilitate heat dissipation through adequate hydration, appropriate clothing and cool environmental surroundings.

Exercise recommendations Pregnant women should do exercises that enhance their cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength and joint flexibility. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends non-weight-bearing activities such as stationary cycling or swimming, and advises against pushing past the point of fatigue. For more specific information, be sure to consult your gynecologist before engaging in any fitness activities.

Parental arguments can have bad, and good, effects There has been a recent flurry of interest in the subject of parents having strong arguments, fights (not physical, which are obviously unacceptable) and bouts of yelling in front of their children. There are numerous studies on this subject, and frequently they come to different conclusions. Some researchers believe it is helpful for Junior to observe small spats or disagreements because they may serve as an example of conflict resolution. That makes some sense, but it overlooks reality because many times in these spats, there is no resolution. After such spats, mom and

VIEWS Dr. Murray Feingold dad continue to believe each one is right, and then life goes on. But this is also a lesson a child can learn. One study showed parental arguments that take place while baby is sleeping may affect the baby. Sleeping infants were placed in an MRI scanner, and their brain responses were determined while being exposed to various tones of voices (very angry, mildly angry, happy and neutral). Results showed when sleep-

ing babies were exposed to very angry voices, there were higher levels of responses in the area of the brain associated with emotional and stress regulation. How this ultimately affects the baby is not known. Psychologists have offered different suggestions concerning how to manage this issue. One suggested placing a fiveminute limit on all arguments in front of the children. I can imagine mom and dad having a very heated argument over dad spending too much time watching football games. Then, at the magic five-minute mark they say, “Time’s up, talk to you later”

and move on to something else. That ain’t going to happen. There are some families who are always arguing or shouting because of their emotional makeup, temperament and background. In this type of environment, the children usually become immune to parental animated disagreements. However, there may be a more deleterious effect of parental yelling and shouting on the children who are not used to such high-decibel debates. Common sense indicates an occasional parental spat is the reality of living together, and children can

learn from it. However, children witnessing a major verbal encounter (shouting match) or disagreement between mom and dad probably results in the child experiencing more emotional distress than a learning experience.

Let them eat candy Parents shouldn’t get spooked by kids’ Halloween treat haul By SAMIRA KAWASH The Washington Post Across the nation, parents like me are bracing for the annual sugar rush known as Halloween. I’ve got pounds of mini-treats to pass out to neighborhood goblins and ghouls. But many parents struggle to balance our kids’ mania for sweets with a nagging feeling that all that candy can’t be a good thing. Everybody knows: Candy rots kids’ teeth. Candy ruins kids’ dinner. Candy makes kids fat. Any and all sugars will pitch the fragile child into a lifelong battle with diabetes, obesity and heart disease. But a lot of this worry about children and candy isn’t about candy at all. It is about whether children have a right to their own pleasure. That could explain our abstinence approach to candy’s perceived dangers. The focus on restriction suggests there’s no such thing as “safe candy.” We make rules about how much of a child’s Halloween haul may be retained or consumed. We bar candy from school vending machines. We prohibit children from entering drugstores after school without a parent. In the early 1900s, children had a lot more independence and more opportunities to buy and eat candy on their own. Instead of restricting treats, the reformers of the time used an approach that looks more like “scared straight” tactics. Stories and poems about candy lands seduced children, then terrified them with the horrible consequences. The 1950s brought the dawn of the “child-centered” family: Parents’ job was to make their children happy and keep them safe, away from polio germs and communists. Most people didn’t see any problem with children eating candy.

In the postwar era, kids were less likely to take their own pennies to buy jelly beans and licorice sticks. Instead, sweets came through the door in mother’s grocery sack filled with Frosted Flakes and Oreos. Today, when obesity is widely viewed as the biggest threat to children’s health, every kid is at risk from the dangers of unlimited sweets. Public policies focus on removing candy and soda from children’s reach and substituting “safe” alternatives such as apple juice and granola bars, which, despite their virtuous wrappers, aren’t all that different from the “bad” treats they replace. And the notion that children might, as a century ago, be capable of self-regulation and self-control is notably absent from the passionate debates about how to protect them from food. It might be better to assume that, when it comes to candy – and much else – children are people, too. Instead of treating kids as fragile, helpless, stupid creatures who will perish if we don’t swaddle them in layers of social and emotional padding, we could treat them the way adults like to be treated: as intelligent beings with a strong drive for autonomy and respect. Kids need our wisdom and our knowledge. They need to learn from us what good food looks and tastes like, and how to take care of their bodies. They need to understand media and advertising’s power to persuade and distort. But we should give them the freedom to learn to be themselves. Sure, kids will make mistakes. But the worst thing that will happen if my kid goes crazy with her Halloween candy is she’ll get a tummy ache. Which might actually be a great way for her to learn, on her own, the all-important Halloween virtue of moderation.

Mothers stretch at the 10th anniversary class for Jennifer Lungren’s Fit4Mom franchise in Arlington, Va. Mom-centric exercise programs are becoming more popular in the fitness industry.

Exercise classes cater to moms By VICKY HALLETT The Washington Post The other women in class curled dumbbells as they lunged. But Lindsay Macaleer put down her weights and instead gently rocked her double stroller to soothe her 2-year-old and 10-week-old sons. “I just want them to be quiet, so I’m modifying my workout,” whispered the Arlington, Va., resident, who was grateful to be back into her exercise routine at all. For Macaleer, 34, that’s three days a week taking either a Stroller Strides class, which combines high-intensity aerobics and strength-building moves, or Stroller Barre, which borrows sculpting techniques from ballet and Pilates. Both offerings are available through Fit4Mom, which was known as Stroller Strides until this summer. The 12-yearold program, founded in San Diego and now at 275 franchises across the country, has gradually expanded to incorporate prenatal fitness, classes for moms without their kids in tow and moms’ social clubs focused on nights out rather than working out. So it was time for a name that better reflected that breadth, said Susan King Glosby, Fit4Mom’s vice president of operations. “We’re about strength for motherhood and being fit regardless of what age your kids are,” she said. That might sound like an obvious goal. But the fitness industry, despite

being propped up by millions of women trying to lose that baby weight, hasn’t been particularly inviting to moms. Child care often isn’t available at gyms, and even where it is, kids usually have to be at least 6 months old to be accepted. “No one wants to wait six months to exercise,” said Jennifer Lungren, who has welcomed plenty of new moms to her Fit4Mom Arlington-Alexandria franchise in Virginia over the past decade. And once they find a place where they can bring their brood, chat with other moms about their latest sleep woes and meet up with playmates, they get hooked. Other mom-centric fitness programs have followed a similar path. Baby Boot Camp got its start in 2002 when the San Francisco gym where founder Kristen Horler was a personal trainer didn’t have child care. So Horler strapped her baby daughter into a stroller and organized a group of mom friends to meet up in a park. Now there are 154 Baby Boot Camp franchises. “I can’t tell you how many women have told me they wish it had been around for their oldest children. I wish I had it,” said Nicole Marville, who has led the Montgomery County Baby Boot Camp franchise in Maryland since January. (Like Lungren, she has four children.) Traditional gym settings can be especially intimidating for new moms dealing with unfamiliar body issues. Fitness instructor Kathy Corbey recognized the

need for an alternative way to work out when she gained more than 70 pounds with her first baby. She spent six years developing her mom-baby classes at rented spaces around Northern Virginia before opening the Mommy Bootcamp studio in Ashburn, Va., in 2012. Whether she’s taking Hot Mama! (Zumba-esque cardio dance) or BOOTYcamp (which focuses on glutes and core), there’s no problem having kids who act like kids. “Moms always call and ask, ‘What if my baby cries?’ It’s Mommy Bootcamp. It’s expected,” Corbey said. “No one is going to judge you or give you a dirty look.” They might, however, pass over a snack. At least one box of raisins changed hands at Lungren’s Stroller Barre class last week, which drew about 15 women – including Macaleer. After a quick warmup, the group took off with their strollers for a lap around the parking lot. The frequent intervals of jogging or walking aren’t just for boosting heart rates, Lungren explained. The kids get antsy when they’re parked in one spot for too long. So Lungren made the most of each pause, launching right away into exercises like plies with shoulder presses and squat pulses. Singing kiddie hits, playing peekaboo and encouraging the children to count along with the reps holds off the inevitable meltdowns. Moms rave that these techniques also help engage the kids, so they’re learning during class, too.

Retailers share their advice ‘Almost anxiety’ is treated with in dealing with unruly kids good diet, sleep and exercise Dear Abby: I managed a retail store for 10 years, and I can relate to the shop owner who signed herself “Had It With Overindulged Kids” (June 28). She could turn things around by creating a designated play area and market to the children by taking any opened items and placing them there for a children’s testing ground. I had a “play table” with toys to keep them busy while their moms shopped. I put a gated area around it and a dads’ bench in front of it so they could watch the children. They are your customers. So cater to them and be thankful the parents shop in your store. Learn the children’s names and suggest new age-appropriate products. If you don’t have the time, hire someone who loves children and has the patience to play with them in a controlled environment. – Joyce From Michigan Dear Joyce: Thank you for the helpful advice. Customers and retailers alike shared their experiences. Many of them questioned whether the children always misbehaved this badly in public and blamed their behavior on today’s parenting skills – or lack thereof. Here’s a sampling: Dear Abby: I shopped at a local store for years, but gave up when the place seemed overrun by unruly children and distracted parents. Out of desperation, I took a job there and vowed to find a way

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips to make the parents rein in their youngsters. One: I posted a sign that read, “IF YOU BREAK IT, YOU BOUGHT IT.” If they refused, I didn’t push the issue, but I did gesture upward. They would always look up, and when they did, I’d thank them for smiling at our cameras. Two: Any child found unaccompanied would be escorted to our customer service area and the parents paged repeatedly until they showed up. Since I instituted these policies, the condition of the store has improved, the morale of the employees has improved, sales have risen, and old customers who left due to the old circumstances are returning. – Survivor Of

Retail Hell Dear Abby: I was in a shop where a sign behind the counter read: “Unattended Children Will Be Sold!” It was enough to get most parents’ (and kids’) attention while eliciting smiles at the same time. – Nonna Of Five Dear Abby: You mentioned posting a sign at the cash register. No, Abby, it should be at the entrance, so parents see it at the time they walk in. Or how about a different sign: “Well-Behaved Children Will Win a Prize,” then rewarding such children with a

small gift? It would be worth the expense of small tokens of appreciation compared with the cost of broken merchandise. I sympathize with “Had It.” Parents often take kids on outings, believing they’re spending quality time with them. But I see parents ignore their children and spend their time on electronic gadgets, leaving the unsupervised youngsters to run amok. Too bad for the children. – Gloria In Lafayette, Calif. Dear Abby: I like the sign a friend of mine put up in her store: “Unattended children will be given espresso and a puppy and returned to their parents.” – Marjory In Blow-

ing Rock, N.C. Dear Abby: I owned a small business with designated play areas for many years. One mom came in repeatedly with her two small sons, who were completely unruly and disruptive. I spoke to her several times, but I was wasting my breath. Here’s how I solved the problem: When Mom checked out, I added the items the terrible twosome destroyed to her bill. When I told her how much she owed, she insisted it must be a mistake. I said, “No mistake; these items belong to your kids.” She paid the bill and remained a customer, but the kids were never with her again. – Had Enough, Gaines-

Dear Dr. K: I’ve always worried a lot. I saw a psychologist, but she said I didn’t have anxiety disorder, so she couldn’t help. I can’t believe there’s nothing to do. Can you help? Dear Reader: I don’t agree with your doctor. I’ve talked before in this space about how doctors typically define diseases by how they appear in their most extreme form. I call it the “tip of the iceberg” phenomenon. Doctors have certain criteria for what constitutes an anxiety disorder. I assume your doctor has checked those criteria and decided that you don’t have enough of them to “qualify” for the diagnosis. You may not have an anxiety disorder, but it sounds as though the nagging, worrisome thoughts in your mind may be distracting you from the positive, enjoyable experiences all around you. If so, there are ways to help you. There’s a newly emerging term for this gray zone that falls between “normal” anxiety and a full-blown anxiety disorder. It’s called “almost anxiety.” In their illuminating new book, “Almost Anxious,” my Harvard Medical School colleague Dr. Luana Marques with Eric Metcalf explore the idea of almost anxiety and introduce a set of skills you can use to keep

it at bay. (You can find out more about the book on my website.) As discussed in “Almost Anxious,” the first needs that usually go unanswered when people are stressed are the things that actually keep anxiety at bay. These include proper nutrition, sleep and exercise. You may see how these things could be good for your health in general, yet doubt they could affect anxiety. You shouldn’t doubt it: They can help. Let’s start with nutrition. People who are a little anxious tend to reach for unhealthy “comfort” food. Or they completely avoid food, skipping meals or even fasting. The healthier road – and one that also will help tame your anxiety – is to eat wholesome foods on a regular schedule. How does nutrition help fight “almost anxiety”? It may be as simple as this: An unhealthy diet contributes to feeling unwell – and then worrying you may have a serious disease, such as an undiagnosed cancer. Next on the list is sleep. Being sleep-deprived can significantly raise your

anxiety level. But there’s good scientific evidence that good sleep can help control anxiety. If you have trouble falling or staying asleep, try the following: • Use your bed for sleep and sex only. • Get out of bed if you can’t fall asleep after 20 minutes. • Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. • Don’t nap during the day. • Don’t drink alcohol close to bedtime. Finally, get regular exercise. Simply moving at a moderate pace has a big effect on anxiety. Aim for 30 minutes of moderateintensity exercise five days a week. We don’t understand just how it is that regular exercise reduces anxiety, but there is good scientific evidence it does. Just deciding to take action to deal with your anxious feelings is itself therapeutic. Being “almost anxious” can interfere with your life, but there are simple and natural (and inexpensive) ways to treat the condition.

Our friend A.N. Other said, “Don’t gamble unless you can afford to lose, and if you can afford to lose, you don’t have to gamble.” At the bridge table, unless you are playing in a pair event, where overtricks can be valuable, do not gamble your contract. Just take the guaranteed line to get home. Today’s deal would not only snare gamblers, but would also catch out those who play too quickly at trick one. The bidding went off the rails slightly when it did not end in three no-trump. South was propelled into ive clubs. After West guessed well to lead a diamond, what should declarer have done? North’s two-heart bid was fourth-suit game-forcing. His three-club continuation was reasonable because six clubs could have been a good contract if South had, say, 4-3-1-5 shape. But over South’s three hearts, North should have bid three no-trump. With only one top loser, the trump ace, it looks safe to take the diamond inesse

at trick one. However, if East wins and shifts to a heart, suddenly ive clubs has no chance. Instead, South should win the irst trick with dummy’s ace and attack trumps. Let’s assume East takes the second round and switches to a heart. Declarer wins with his ace, unblocks dummy’s two spades, plays a trump to his hand, discards dummy’s remaining hearts on his acejack of spades, ruffs the heart jack on the board, and claims, conceding one diamond and one club.
