ComEd plans power line unveiling Decision on Grand Prairie Gateway Project route nears

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com SYCAMORE – ComEd is winnowing down the routes for a new electric transmission line and will debut them at public meetings next week.

ComEd has been hosting waves of open house meetings since July to gather public input on the Grand Prairie Gateway Project. ComEd officials plan to build a power line

across four counties, including DeKalb, to connect substations in Byron and Wayne.

ComEd spokesman David O’Dowd said the primary and alternate routes for the power line haven’t been settled yet, but will be ready to be presented at open houses taking place this month in Rochelle, St. Charles and Sycamore.

“It’s been a very positive, robust dialogue, as it should be, and we are confident we

will indeed meet the goals of the project and reflect the input of the communities we serve,” he said.

The power line will carry about 345,000 volts of electricity and could be supported by about 400 single-pole steel structures, ComEd says.

PJM Interconnection, an independent regional transmission grid operator, identified the need for the transmission line between Byron

in the west and Wayne in the east to relieve congestion in the transmission system, according to a ComEd news release. Congestion limits the amount of electricity that can be delivered to an area.

“By relieving the congestion, it will protect customers from the cost increases that congestion creates,” he said.

Sycamore City Manager Brian Gregory said city officials were invited to partic-

ipate in ComEd’s stakeholder meetings for the past two months.

He said they have been engaged with ComEd in the process of sharing land use plans and addressing any concerns Sycamore residents may have, such as the transmission line being close to neighborhoods.

Sycamore Middle School eighth-grade language arts teacher Jenny Tekiela (right) and student teacher Jacob Keene discuss lesson plans after school Friday. Keene is a senior English student at Northern Illinois University who plans to get his teaching license and have his own classroom after graduation.

NIU students gain valuable experience in local classrooms

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com Taking on a student teacher always helps Jenny Tekiela take stock of everything she does to manage a classroom.

Tekiela, a language arts teacher at Sycamore Middle School, is working with student teacher Jacob Keene from Northern Illinois University this year.

It can be more work for her because she is finding herself having to explain what she does to teach a class to Keene, including subtleties such as talking while passing out handouts to keep the class engaged. Tekiela said she didn’t realize she did this at first, but knew it was to keep the class focused.

“Teachers don’t realize the number of [things] they do on purpose in a given day,” she said.

Sycamore Middle School eighth-grade language arts teacher Jenny Tekiela (left) and student teacher Jacob Keene discuss Friday’s classroom experience.

Keene is one of about 2,500 students who go through NIU’s teacher education programs each year. NIU has formed partnerships with many area school districts, said Sharon Smaldino, Morgridge En-

dowed Chair for teacher education within NIU’s College of Education.

Smaldino said NIU has several student-teaching programs and some of them are moving toward a model where

the teacher works with the teaching candidate for one year.

“It’s a chance for the teacher hosting the teacher candidate to have some time to meet with these candidates and work more collaboratively,” she said.

In the beginning, Keene works with Tekiela side-byside before being in charge over one part of her class, Tekiela wrote in an email.

Eventually, he would take charge of the teacher’s full schedule and would be responsible for teaching under her guidance, she said.

DeKalb High School has co-teaching programs and more traditional student programs, said Jennie Hueber, assistant principal for the high school and the school’s liaison for NIU.

CHICAGO – Illinois officials plan to launch a long-delayed, $33 million advertising campaign to inform residents about a new health insurance marketplace Tuesday, the ads first appearing on the same day the marketplace goes live with details of benefits available under President Barack Obama’s health care law.

The Get Covered Illinois ad campaign will start slowly with full-color newspaper ads in 50 cities, said Kelly Sullivan, chief marketing and communication officer for the marketplace. She provided copies of the ads to The Associated Press.

Sullivan said radio and TV ads won’t start until officials make sure the web-based marketplace and a call center are working smoothly and that enough trained workers are ready to help people sign up for insurance. Hundreds of outreach workers are awaiting required certification in Illinois because of a delay getting them through a federal training program.

The campaign, orchestrated by St. Louis-based FleishmanHillard, gets underway as a new survey shows six out of 10 Illinois adults don’t know about the marketplace or that it will offer many people financial help paying the cost of insurance. The findings, released Monday by the nonpartisan Commonwealth Fund, come from a random sample telephone survey of 470 Illinoisans conducted July 15 through Sept. 8.

About 1.8 million Illinois residents are uninsured, 15 percent of the population.

The Affordable Care Act requires most Americans to have insurance coverage or pay fines. The marketplaces, one in every state, offer a way for consumers to comparison shop for insurance and to see if they qualify for tax credits to help pay the cost.

“We know the majority of adults in our state are unaware of the marketplace,”

Barack Obama President

GOP unity frays as shutdown looms The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – The federal government lurched toward a partial shutdown at midnight Monday after Republicans stubbornly demanded changes in the nation’s health care law as the price for essential federal funding and President Barack Obama and Democrats adamantly refused.

With Congress hopelessly gridlocked, Obama said hundreds of thousands of federal workers would be furloughed and government operations ranging from veterans’ centers to national parks and most of the nation’s space agency would be shuttered.

He laid the blame at the feet of House Republicans, whom he accused of seeking to tie government funding to ideological demands, “all to save face after making some impossible promises to the extreme right wing of their party.”

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, responded a short while later on the House floor. “The American people don’t want a shutdown and neither do I,” he said. Yet, he added, the new health care law “is having a devastating impact. ... Something has to be done.”

The stock market dropped on fears that political gridlock between the White House and a tea party-heavy Republican Party would prevail, though analysts suggested significant damage to the national economy was unlikely unless a shutdown lasted more than a few days.

While an estimated 800,000 federal workers faced furloughs, some critical parts of the government – from the military to air traffic controllers – would

remain open.

Any interruption in federal funding would send divided government into territory unexplored in nearly two decades. Then, Republicans suffered grievous political damage and President Bill Clinton benefited from twin shutdowns.

Now, some Republicans said they feared a similar outcome. “We can’t win,” said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.

“We’re on the brink,” Barack Sen. Barbara Mikulski, Obama Md., said shortly after President midday as the two houses maneuvered for political advantage and the Obama administration’s budget office prepared for a partial shutdown.

On a long day and night in the Capitol, Rep. John the Senate torpedoed one GOP attempt to Boehner Speaker of the t i e g o v e r n m e n t f i nancing to changes in U.S. House “Obamacare.” House Republicans countered with a second despite unmistakable signs their unity was fraying – and Senate Democrats promptly rejected it, as well.

That left the next move up to Boehner and his House Republican rank and file, with just two hours remaining before the shutdown deadline of midnight.

They decided to re-pass their earlier measure and simultaneously request negotiations with the Senate on a compromise, a move that some GOP aides

said was largely designed to make sure that the formal paperwork was on the Senate’s doorstep at the moment of a shutdown.

Whatever its intent, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., rejected it.

“That closes government. They want to close government,” he said.

As lawmakers squabbled, Obama spoke bluntly about House Republicans. “You don’t get to extract a ransom for doing your job, for doing what you’re supposed to be doing anyway, or just because there’s a law there that you don’t like,” he said. Speaking of the health care law that undergoes a major expansion today, he said emphatically, “That funding is already in place. You can’t shut it down.”

Some Republicans balked, moderates and conservatives alike.

Rep. Phil Gingrey of Georgia said it felt as if Republicans were retreating, given their diminishing demands, and Rep. Scott Rigell of Virginia said there was not unanimity when the rank and file met to discuss a next move.

Yet for the first time since the showdown began more than a week ago, there was also public dissent from the Republican strategy that has been carried out at the insistence of lawmakers working in tandem with GOP Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas.

Rep. Charles Dent, R-Pa., said he was willing to vote for stand-alone legislation that would keep the government running and contained no health care-related provisions. “I would be supportive of it, and I believe the votes are there in the House to pass it at that point,” the fifth-term congressman said.

‘Breaking Bad’ ends but lessons linger The ASSOCIATED PRESS

would hate that if it happened.

NEW YORK – Sunday’s “Breaking Bad” turned out the lights on one of the darkest shows in television history.

Even as this drama cooked up storylines that celebrated evil and depravity, “Breaking Bad” gleamed with a bright side, too. There were plenty of positive messages for the viewer who acknowledged them during the series’ five-season run.

Here are some lessons “Breaking Bad” leaves behind:

Build a better mousetrap!

Stay in school and study hard!

As Walter White demonstrated after he ditched teaching for producing crystal meth, you can make millions from a subject like chemistry that far too many youngsters (including Mr. White’s bored students) find annoying and useless. Walt (aka drug lord Heisenberg) proved otherwise with his storage shed of money.

Chemistry has everyday applications.

The next time you dispose of a corpse with hydrofluoric acid, all you devoted “Breaking Bad” viewers will know not to dissolve the body in a bathtub, but instead in a plastic container.

You learned this valuable tip in Season 1, when Walt’s lab assistant Jesse Pinkman disregarded his instructions and

Steve Jobs knew it. Jeff Bezos knows it. Walt White serves as a mythical champion of their kind of acumen: Offer a better product with an obvious advantage, and the world (or, anyway, addicts who loved Walt’s super-potent “blue sky” crystal meth) will beat a path to your door.

The acid memorably dissolved through the bathtub and floor at Jesse’s house, leaving a bloody mess in the hallway downstairs. You won’t make that mistake.

Family is oh, so important.

“Breaking Bad” reminds you that entering the drug trade and messing with the wrong people in it can lead to your wife and teenage son despising you. It can also lead to your brotherin-law getting brutally murdered. You

Need a lift? Try a personal makeover.

If you’re stuck in a rut, like Walter White at the start of “Breaking Bad,” consider a new look. Shave your head, grow a tidy, I-mean-business beard and fit yourself with a black pork pie hat.

Then come up with a new name. Like Heisenberg. In your new identity, people will fear you and you’re sure to go far.

Keep a shrewd lawyer on call, especially if you mean to routinely break the law.

Sure, he may be a sleazebag and a shameless self-promoter. But a lawyer like Saul Goodman (“Better call Saul!”) is worth his weight in hundred-dollar bills to a client like Walter White, whom he represented faithfully, if more than often sarcastically. With his mastery of trade practices – legal and illegal – Saul was the most impressive TV lawyer since Perry Mason.

Airlines newest fees to pay for better food, baggage delivery The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – Airlines are introducing a new bevy of fees, but this time passengers might actually like them.

Unlike the first generation of charges which dinged fliers for oncefree services like checking a bag, these new fees promise a taste of the good life, or at least a more civil flight.

Extra legroom, early boarding and access to quiet lounges were just the beginning. Airlines are now renting Apple iPads preloaded with movies, selling hot first class meals in coach and letting passengers pay to have an empty seat next to them. Once on the

ground, they can skip baggage claim, having their luggage delivered directly to their home or office.

In the near future, airlines plan to go one step further, using massive amounts of personal data to customize new offers for each flier.

“We’ve moved from takeaways to enhancements,” says John F. Thomas of L.E.K. Consulting. “It’s all about personalizing the travel experience.”

Carriers have struggled to raise airfares enough to cover costs. Fees bring in more than $15 billion a year and are the reason the airlines are profitable. But the amount of money coming in from older charges like baggage and reservation change fees

has tapered off. Revenue from bag fees in April, May and June fell 7 percent compared to the same period last year, according to figures released by the government Monday.

So now the airlines are selling new extras and copying marketing methods honed by retailers.

Technological upgrades allow airlines to sell products directly to passengers at booking, in follow-up emails as trips approach, at check-in and on mobile phones minutes before boarding. Delta Air Lines recently gave its flight attendants wireless devices, allowing them to sell passengers last-second upgrades to seats with more legroom.

And just like Amazon.com offers suggested readings based on each buyer’s past purchases, airlines soon will be able to use past behavior to target fliers.

“We have massive amounts of data,” says Delta CEO Richard Anderson. “We know who you are. We know what your history has been on the airline. We can customize our offerings.”

Other airlines are experimenting with tracking passengers throughout the airport. In the future, if somebody clears security hours before their flight, they might be offered a discounted day pass to the airline’s lounge on their phone.

DeKalb police nab 22 kilos of cocaine 2 Ariz. men charged

By JILLIAN DUCHNOWSKI jduchnowski@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Two Phoenix men are being held on $10 million bond after authorities found them with 22 kilograms of cocaine at DeKalb Taylor Municipal Airport.

Airport officials called DeKalb police about 10:30 p.m.

Sept. 21 to report two suspicious subjects, according to a news release from the DeKalb Police Department sent Monday.

“They had made some statements to the personnel that they were Terance T. stranded and Prigge needed a ride,” DeKalb Police Commander John Petragallo said. “The airport had to call for a limo for these two, and Matthew B. it made them Gruender feel safer with an officer on standby.”

After police arrived, the two men gave conflicting accounts about their business in the area, and a police dog alerted toward two of their bags, police said.

Police released Terance T. Prigge, 53, and Matthew B. Gruender, 52, but took their bags and obtained a search warrant, the news release states. Police later found 22 individually wrapped kilograms of cocaine with an estimated street value of $750,000.

Officials with the federal Drug Enforcement Agency located and arrested Prigge and Gruender last week. They remained in Arizona awaiting extradition to face charges in DeKalb County Circuit Court.

They were charged with controlled substance trafficking, unlawful possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver and unlawful possession of a controlled substance. If convicted of the most serious charge, they could be sentenced to between 30 and 60 years in prison.

Also assisting in the investigation were Illinois State Police, Northern Illinois Police Department, DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office, DeKalb County State’s Attorney’s Office and the Department of Homeland Security.

Cemetery walk features Civil War veterans

By DOUG OLESON doleson@shawmedia.com SYCAMORE – Joseph Listy was born in Switzerland in 1841. After immigrating to the United States as a young boy with his parents, he enlisted with Company K, 5th Regiment, Wisconsin Volunteers Infantry on Sept.

4, 1864.

According to the Sycamore True Republican, Listy’s wrist was so badly shattered by a bullet during the Battle of Richmond that “he was hardly able to use the member.”

He was hospitalized until the war ended.

Listy is one of eight local Civil War veterans who will be featured during the Sycamore History Museum’s 15th annual cemetery walk, “Etched in Stone,” on Sunday at Elmwood Cemetery. The event will begin at 1 p.m. at the cemetery’s Charles Street entrance.

“This is always one of our most popular programs,” said Michelle Donahoe, executive director of the Sycamore History Museum. “This year’s cemetery walk will be

Soldiers Row in Elmwood Cemetery will be one of the featured stops Sunday on the Sycamore History Museum’s cemetery walk.

James Petrie Joseph Listy a great example of how our local history connects to national history.”

Museum archives Chairwoman Ann Rosenfeld said

the committee spent more than six months researching the project to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Civil War. “We try to do something a little different every year,” she said.

Although no battles were fought in Sycamore, Rosenfeld said she thinks as many as 644 DeKalb County men served in the war, 225 of

whom are buried in Elmwood Cemetery.

The walk will feature veterans buried in the cemetery’s Soldiers Row by the Sons of Union Veterans. In addition to Listy, other veterans to be featured are Peter Butts, James Petrie, Sven Peterson, Enoch Marchant, Edward Williams, Benjamin Snow and Rueben Collins Brown.

The walk also will include stories about the 1865 cemetery gates, which were built during the war, a Civil War correspondent and the Women’s Relief Corps. The afternoon will end with veteran Sam Jones playing taps.

The suggested donation is $5 a person.

Two airlifted from 2-vehicle accident near Somonauk

By JILLIAN DUCHNOWSKI jduchnowski@shawmedia.com Two people were flown to Rockford-area hospitals Monday after a two-vehicle crash that closed part of Somonauk Road near Somonauk.

Wesley S. James, 22, of the 700 block of North Fifth Street in DeKalb, was driving east on Suydam Road and didn’t stop at the stop sign at Somonauk Road about 7:15 a.m., according to a news release from the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office. His 2001 Volkswagen Beetle smashed into the passenger side of a

2004 Honda Odyssey, police said.

James was thrown from the Beetle, while crews had to cut a 10-year-old boy from the van, which was driven

by Ronda A. Scherer, 44, of the 3700 block of Sandy Bluff Road in Plano.

James was flown by Lifeline helicopter to OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center in Rockford with head and chest trauma, police said.

The 10-year-old boy was flown to Rockford Memorial Hospital with two broken legs, two broken wrists and a rib injury, police said.

Scherer and a 14-year-old

boy in her van were taken to Valley West Hospital in Sandwich, where they were treated and released. James was listed in critical condition Monday afternoon, while no information was available from hospital officials about the 10-year-old boy’s condition Monday afternoon.

James was charged with disobeying a stop sign, driving without insurance and failure to wear a seat belt.

Somonauk Road between Pratt Road and Route 34, as well as Suydam Road near Sandwich, were closed between 7:15 and 8:30 a.m., police said.

DeKalb man injured in Friday wreck

By BRENDA SCHORY bschory@shawmedia.com VIRGIL TOWNSHIP – A DeKalb man on a motorcycle was hit by a driver who police allege was intoxicated late Friday, police said.

According to Kane County Sheriff’s reports, Ronald Busch, 39, of DeKalb, was on Route 38 between the bridge and Meredith Road about 11:30 p.m. Friday when he was rear-ended by a Chevrolet Cavalier driven by Nich-

olas D. Jones, 33, of Aurora.

Busch was transported to Delnor Hospital in Geneva, police said. A hospital spokesman said Busch was not a patient at the hospital Monday.

Jones was charged with driving under the influence, failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, operating an uninsured vehicle and possession of more than 2.5 up to 10 grams of marijuana.

According to court records, Jones posted $300 bond or

10 percent of $3,000 bail. His next court date is Oct. 18.

Jones was charged by Aurora police May 30 for illegal transportation of liquor, disregarding a stop sign and possession of less than 2.5 grams of marijuana, court records show. He paid a $735 fine and received a conditional discharge, requiring him to complete 30 hours of community service by Dec. 30 and be under 11 months of court supervision, records show.

Planned routes to require state agency approval

Sullivan said. “The idea [of the print ads] is to get the name into the consciousness of Illinois residents.”

Later this fall, the campaign will address three barriers to purchasing insurance: cost, confusion and complacency, Sullivan said.

Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services Director Julie Hamos said Monday in Chicago that she doesn’t think people

Continued from page A1 and has been willing to listen to our feedback,” Gregory said.

The concept of congestion has been important to get across to the public, O’Dowd said. ComEd officials compared congestion in a transmission system to highways without enough lanes. Transmission lines with insufficient capacity become congested.

In an effort to better educate people about the Grand Prairie Gateway Project, the public meetings have been extended by one hour.

O’Dowd said it’s important to openly engage the public with a project and discuss any issues, environmental or otherwise. He said he believes the public discussion over the project has been straightforward.

“The process has been robust as it is to create a solution and help arrive at a route that will enable ComEd to meet the goals of the project and minimizing impact on residents and communities,” he said.

The routes for the transmission line will require approval by the Illinois Commerce Commission after public input has been gathered. ComEd plans to request approval of the routes by the end of the year and the ICC has up to 225 days to approve the final routes.

The project is expected to be completed and begin service by June 2017, according to ComEd’s website.

“This is complicated.

There’s a lot of choices, there’s a lot to think about ... and that’s OK,” Hamos said during a speech to women lawyers. “There’s no reason people should feel they have to rush in.”

The initial print ads don’t include a telephone hotline number, Sullivan said, because officials don’t want to overload the call center on the first day. But the phone number has been announced to the

news media. Illinoisans can call 866-311-1119 toll-free to get information. Starting today, the help line will be available seven days a week, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Twitter and Facebook will be part of the marketing campaign, Sullivan said, with marketplace updates and messages tweeted and posted at CoveredIllinois.

The print ads show photos of smiling people superimposed on an outline of the state. The tagline is “Welcome to a new state of health.” The first ads aim only to introduce

• TEACHERS Continued from page A1 With the traditional student-teaching model, the student quickly transitions into being a classroom teacher.

Co-teaching allows student teachers to work closely with the regular teacher – typically for a year – and creates more opportunities for teaching candidates to develop a rapport with students.

“It’s a very valuable experience for them and can also obviously be a good thing for our teachers to have an extra pair of hands and eyes and ears in the classroom,” she said.

When it comes to having co-teaching in the classroom, top teaching candidates are selected for the program because of the year-

“It’s really rewarding to walk around to know the students and for them to know me and call me for help. And when they say ‘Oh I get it now!’ that’s the best.”

Abbey Aldape A Northern Illinois University student teacher at DeKalb High School long commitment.

“We want to give them a well-rounded experience at DeKalb High School so they are prepared when they go interview for a job,” she said.

The co-teaching model works well for DeKalb’s math teacher Paul Severino. He is currently working with student teacher Abbey Aldape, a senior math education major at NIU. “They learn a lot and we can feed off of each other,” Severino said. “We can work

together and it seems to flow really well with a co-teaching model.”

This semester Aldape is completing her observation phase of the program and will begin student teaching next semester. She said she is learning to connect with students from Severino and finds herself helping students who don’t normally raise their hands.

promotion than Illinois. Kentucky, the only Southern state running its own marketplace, kicked off an $11 million advertising campaign in June.

Ads have been running on TV, on radio, on the Web and in newspapers in that state and many others.

The federal government is operating most of the Illinois marketplace because state lawmakers didn’t approve a state-run effort in time for this year. That left Illinois subject to federal delays and slowed the launch of the ad campaign, Sullivan said.

right now with the changes wrought by Common Core standards to improve school curriculum statewide and it’s a lot different than when she was a student teacher 12 years ago. Student teachers had less time to observe teachers and were less able to manage a classroom as a result, she said.

She said she likes NIU’s full-year student teaching program because it allows more time for a teaching candidate such as Keene to observe and eventually take charge of a classroom.

Student teaching is a chance for Keene to put all the theories and practice he’s been learning to use. He enjoys interacting with students and finding out what they are learning on a daily basis.

“It’s a nice ‘rise to the challenge’ moment,” he said.

Aldape plans on teaching high school freshmen math, which is what she is currently experiencing during her student teaching.

Keene, an NIU senior English major, said one of his biggest goals was to become an author, but he enjoyed the experience of working with young students in the classroom. At Sycamore Middle School, he is learning from Tekiela how to plan lessons, grade and develop teacher-student relationships.

“In my experience, it’s very welcoming for me, and the university encourages that you get as much exposure while you’re in there,” he said.

Kish Hospital fights germs with new robots

By DANA HERRA dherra@shawmedia.com DeKALB – The housekeeping department at Kishwaukee Hospital has a new weapon in the battle against superbugs – a pair of futuristic germ-zapping robots.

Staff has been training on the TRU-D room disinfecting units since they arrived in August, and they should be in regular use this month, said Vince Landeros, director of environmental services at the hospital.

The robots are a little more than 5-foot tall. Long light tubes are arranged in a narrow circle beneath a black dome, and when activated, the tubes emit bright ultraviolet light that kills pathogens or prevents them from reproducing. The robots don’t replace traditional cleaning methods, Landeros said, but they offer an extra safeguard against difficult-to-kill germs or those hiding in hard-to-reach places.

“The only way to remove soil is by hand,” Landeros said. “The staff is still cleaning thoroughly by hand using an approved disinfectant.

Dana Herra – dherra@shawmedia.com

A TRU-D disinfecting unit bathes a room in ultraviolet light during a demonstration Aug. 27 at Kishwaukee Hospital.

“Then, any time we have patients with a particular diagnosis, this unit will be used on the room after that patient’s discharge.”

According to government statistics, every year more than 1.5 million Americans fall ill to infections picked up in a health care setting.

Chambers welcome Spex Expressions

Battling these infections, particularly hardy bugs that have become resistant to conventional antibiotics, has become a top priority for hospitals and medical centers.

The UV rays emitted by the machine pose a minor risk to humans, so the unit is left in the room by

itself while it cleans, Landeros said.

Staff members open cabinet doors and drawers and pull furniture away from walls before turning it on, so there are no shadowy places germs can hide from the light.

Barricades are set up in front of the doors where the unit is in use, and a motion sensor at the door shuts it down if someone tries to enter.

The unit is placed in the middle of the room, and sensors around the dome detect reflected light and use that data to calculate how long it will take to disinfect the room. A robotic voice warns that the unit is about to become active, then the lights are switched on, bathing every corner of the room in a bluish glow.

A 2012 study by MD Anderson Cancer Center found UV treatment is especially effective against C. difficile, a hard-to-kill pathogen that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says has hit an all-time high. The CDC is funding a 30-month study on the TRU-D now underway at Duke University.

A previous, smaller CDC study at Duke found the unit reduced C.

“We had been following the studies on this technology and said, if this machine can give a better, more effective cleaning, why wouldn’t we?” Pamela Duffy, chief nursing officer at the hospital, said.

Duffy said pathologists in KishHealth System labs track the types of pathogens presenting in patient lab work to identify which germs are prevalent in the area and whether they are likely to be resistant to certain antibiotics.

Once the robots are in use, she said, hospital officials will be watching that data closely.

“We’ll be really paying attention and looking to see what the payoff is in the lab and what patterns are presenting,” she said.

The hospital purchased two of the units because one will be dedicated to the surgical suites, and will clean each operating room daily, Landeros said. The second unit will move around the hospital, cleaning where it is needed.

Fall peak season for local tourism DeKalb County is filled with opportunities for visitors to flock to the area to enjoy all the fall festivities and attractions that we are fortunate enough to have in our own backyard.

We have many family farms that produce apples, pumpkins, cider, donuts and more. There are even haunted mazes, tractor rides, petting zoos, and weekends that feature musical entertainment. These agritourism attractions take on the personality of the owners who make their living from farming and welcome thousands of visitors each year. We salute all of these attractions for the joy they provide to thousands of visitors and the revenue they generate for DeKalb County.

As part of the Office of the Comptroller’s “Agri-Tourism Day” at the Illinois State Fair in Springfield, Judy Barr Topinka presented agriculture leaders from throughout the state with proclamations celebrating their achievements and continuing dedication. Topinka specifically congratulated Jonamac Orchard.

“It is incredible to have Jonamac Orchard continue to support agriculture year after year,” Topinka said.

“The orchard creates a family oriented environment and promotes tourism for our state, and I thank the many people who work so hard to make it happen.”

Agriculture is the No. 1 industry in Illinois in terms of economic impact, contributing more than $8.85 billion to the state’s economy annually. Agritourism is promoted through a wide range of activities, including picking farm products, riding horses, learning about wine and cheese-making, and shopping for local and regional produce or handcrafted gifts.

Conventions and tour groups also are an important focus for DeKalb County Convention and Visitors Bureau as they generate economic wealth for area businesses.

Recently we welcomed approximately 250 Illinois radio broadcasters to DeKalb County for their annual convention. They booked more than 140 hotel room nights for their stay. Each visitor

DCCVB VIEW Debbie Armstrong normally spends an average of $100 a day on meals, entertainment, gas or incidentals.

For November we booked a tour group with 25 visitors from Canada that will spend the night at a local hotel and tour the Monsanto plant in Waterman. We set up its itinerary, secured its hotel rooms and provided recommendations for meals. A group of this size will generate nearly $4,000 in revenue during their overnight stay.

The Pop Warner Cheer competition will return Nov. 9 to the Convocation Center.

We’ve been working with the event coordinator to book hotel room nights for its judges and officials as well as securing a private room for the welcome dinner.

Approximately 350 hotel room nights are booked for the event. More than 3,000 visitors will be here to support their cheerleaders. The estimated economic impact generated from the group is approximately $55,000.

All in all, it’s been a very productive fall tourism season and we’re just getting started. We had at least three hotels that were sold out for the Huskies football home opener. Huskie Nation was out in force to see NIU win its 22nd consecutive home game.

Speaking of football, the excitement continues to build as we prepare to host our first IHSA state football championships at Huskie Stadium on Nov. 29 and 30.

The IHSA Destination Host Committee is still recruiting game day event volunteers, Spirit Zone hospitality volunteers and sponsors.

To volunteer, visit www. ihsadestinationdekalb.com.

Until next time, we encourage you all to get out and enjoy fall in DeKalb County. Check out our calendar of events at www. dekalbcountycvb.com to help make your plans.

Report undercuts global warming alarmists Events have failed to fulfill the prophecy. Preachers have suddenly been struck dumb by uncertainty. Believers are understandably nervous and some, under their breath, are abandoning the dogma.

These sentences could have been written at the end of the day Oct. 22, 1844, about the Millerites, a religious sect started in upstate New York. Preachers had told their followers that Jesus would return to Earth that day. He failed to show.

But the subject here is not Millerism, but another kind of religious faith: The faith of the global warming alarmists. And although it’s not likely to have the impact of the Millerites’ Great Disappointment, we could be seeing the beginning of something similar.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has issued its fifth assessment report in Stockholm. Wall Street Journal science writer Matt Ridley has “had a glimpse of the key prediction at the heart of the document.”

“The big news,” Ridley writes, “is that, for the first time since these reports started coming out in 1990, the new one dials back the alarm. It states that the temperature rise we can expect as a result of man-made emissions of carbon dioxide is lower than the IPCC thought in 2007.”

Ridley admits that the change is small.

And he does not deny that increased carbon emissions could increase global temperatures by some significant amount.

They would certainly do so if carbon emissions were the only thing affecting climate.

But there may be other things. Like variations in sun activity. “The most plausible explanation of the pause,” Ridley writes, “is simply that climate sensitivity was overestimated in the models because of faulty assumptions about net amplification through water-vapor feedback.”

The pause referred to is the fact that

VIEWS Michael Barone global temperatures haven’t increased over the past 15 years. Global warming models predicted they would. The models’ failure is not as stark as the Great Disappointment, but it’s a failure nonetheless.

The religious analogy is appropriate because belief in global warming has taken on the trappings of traditional religion.

Alarmists like to say the science is settled – which is nonsense, since science is a series of theories that can be tested by observations. When Einstein presented his theory of relativity, he showed how it could be tested during astronomical events in the next decade. The theory passed.

Saying the science is settled is like demanding what religions demand – that you have faith.

Religion has ritual. Global warming alarmism has recycling and Earth Day celebrations.

Some religions persecute heretics. Some global warming alarmists identify “denialists” and liken them to Holocaust deniers.

Religions build grand places of worship.

Global warming alarmists promote the construction of windmills and solar farms that produce uneconomic and intermittent electricity.

Global warming alarmism even has indulgences like the ones Martin Luther protested. You can buy carbon offsets to gain forgiveness for travel on carbon-emitting private jet aircraft.

Some religions ban vulgar pleasures, like the New England Puritan sumptuary laws banning luxuries. Some global warming alarmists want to force most Americans out of big-lawn suburbs and

into high-rise apartments clustered around mass transit stations.

This last element seems to be dominant among many global warming alarmists.

Stop the vulgar masses from living their tacky lifestyles of driving those horrid SUVs. They must be made to repent, conform and then be saved.

The signs that the threat of global warming has been exaggerated come after publics here and abroad have rejected alarmists’ demands for vast carbon emission reductions.

The European Union’s carbon reduction program is in shambles and the United States has actually reduced emissions more, thanks to cheap natural gas produced by fracking.

Windmills and solar panels are not economic or dependable sources of electricity.

China and India are not going to stifle the economic growth that is lifting millions out of poverty with carbon emissions caps.

History teaches that climate can change, and it makes sense to fund research to determine how to mitigate possible harms (and capitalize on possible benefits).

Unfortunately, most government and nonprofit funding has gone to global warming alarmists. But apparently even these priests understand that their prophecies have not been fulfilled.

Redemption is possible. Some Millerites formed the Seventh Day Adventist church, which has built fine medical schools and hospitals. Global warming alarmists might consider their example.

It seems that just about everything in Illinois works against taxpayers.

Income tax rates were raised from 3 percent to 5 percent just a few years ago. Property taxes are way too high and continue to increase even though property values have decreased significantly since 2009.

State government spends our tax dollars as if it were Monopoly money.

Taxpayers need a break.

Although we don’t expect to see any big breaks given the current leadership in Springfield, small ones are at least a start.

That’s why we support a bill filed by state Rep. Jack Franks that would require property assessors For the record to justify any assessment increase greater than 5 That’s why we support a percent. bill filed by state Rep. Jack The legislation, filed Franks that would require earlier this month, puts property assessors to justithe burden of proof on the fy any assessment increase assessor to prove why an greater than 5 percent. increased property value is warranted.

The number of homeowners who challenged their property assessments has skyrocketed in recent years. Under the current appeals process, it is up to the homeowner to provide evidence that the assessment should be lowered. Homeowners are required to track down recent sales data of comparable homes showing that their house has been overassessed. The comparable properties have to be of similar size, story height, quality of construction and style.

“I introduced this legislation to give taxpayers a stronger voice in the assessment process because it is very clear that without their increased involvement, taxing bodies will just continue to take more,” Franks said.

We realize that Franks’ bill won’t result in lower taxes for the vast majority of taxpayers. That only will come when local government bodies stop asking for more and start spending more wisely.

We supported a Franks’ bill last year that would have prohibited local governments from seeking higher levies in years when property values declined.

That bill stalled in a House committee, as it seems most taxpayer-friendly bills do.

While this proposed legislation won’t lower taxes, it’s a step in the right direction.

8 ANOTHER VIEW

‘No Child Left Behind’ remains miserable failure Education is evolving at lightning speed. High school students are earning college credits before their graduation. Students are blogging homework assignments so their work can be evaluated by peers as well as teachers. Many school districts are putting laptops and tablets in the hands of every student, allowing access to online instruction, video production and global research. More students than ever are enrolled in public preschool. Common Core curriculum is sweeping the nation.

Still, American schools are mired in the mess of “No Child Left Behind,” a failed reform that keeps on sharing its failures with students and faculty. The latest round of scores shows that 64 percent of Iowa and 66 percent of Illinois public schools do not meet “average yearly progress” scores.

The concept of yearly progress suggests educators are doing a better job with the same students. The reality is each year brings a new class expected to perform significantly better than the class before them.

Broken down to the classroom level, No Child presents an impossible standard. Last year, 24 children in a 30-student third-grade class had to pass to meet the standard. This year, 28 different third-grade students must pass to meet the higher standard. Next year, each one of the 30 new third-graders must pass.

Consequently, the rate of No Child school failures grows each year. And so do the consequences. Each failure launches a new round of expensive interventions that may benefit individual students, but do nothing about curbing the rate of building failure.

The obvious solution is for Congress to retool the federal government’s education role. But Congress is making zero annual progress on a budget, farm bill, energy plan, immigration and almost everything else. So the Obama administration is allowing states to ignore the most onerous parts of No Child if they adopt better measurements, and particularly, tie teacher evaluations to classroom outcomes.

All but two states have applied for waivers, and 41 states, plus the District of Columbia, have received them. Iowa’s waiver request was rejected last year because test scores weren’t sufficiently included in teacher evaluations. Illinois has been waiting since February 2012 for word on its waiver request.

Meanwhile, all eyes are focused on an Oct. 17 debt ceiling deadline when House Republican stubbornness is set to undermine the credit of our nation and throw the U.S. economy – again – into a tailspin.

Congress isn’t simply an obstacle to progress. It is an anchor sinking the future of schoolchildren struggling in a majority of American schools that now carry the No Child “failure” label.

Cubs’ Sveum never had a chance VIEWS Tom Musick

Pasqualoni fired at UConn after 0-4 start HARTFORD, Conn. – Connecticut athletic director Warde Manuel says he’s looking for football coach who can bring more excitement, passion, and above all wins to UConn.

Manuel fired coach Paul Pasqualoni (above) on Monday, with his team 0-4 and coming off a 41-12 loss at Buffalo.

Pasqualoni, in his third season at UConn, finishes with a 10-18 record. Associate head coach George DeLeone, who coached the offensive line, also was let go.

“I’m changing now because we have to have different leadership to get different results,” Manuel said. “I’m not comfortable with losing.”

The school said it will pay Pasqualoni $750,000 to buy out his contract.

The Huskies are off this week before hosting South Florida on Oct. 12.

Offensive coordinator T.J. Weist, whose fiery style is a contrast to the laid back Pasqualoni, will take over as interim head coach for the remainder of the season.

The 48-year-old Weist, who played at Alabama, came to Connecticut in the offseason from Cincinnati, where he coached wide receivers.

Weist also has worked at his alma mater, Michigan, Southern Illinois, Tulsa and Western Kentucky.

At UConn he’s overseen an offense that ranks last in the bowl subdivision in rushing, and 119th out of 123 teams in total offense.

Manuel said Weist would have to show he can win to have “any shot” at becoming the team’s permanent coach.

“I definitely think I’m prepared for this, and I’m ready for it,” Weist said. “And I want it.”

Manuel said he will not be contacting active coaches at other programs about the job until after the season.

CHICAGO – Here in the City of Long Winters, baseball is finished until 2014.

Oh, well. At least we have word games.

The Cubs fired manager Dale Sveum on Monday after two miserable seasons on the North Side. Sveum was given a Triple-A ball club and produced Triple-A results, losing 101 games in his first season and 96 games in his next attempt.

Yet wins and losses were not the reason why Sveum was dumped with one year remaining on his deal, as Cubs wizard Theo Epstein told reporters at Wrigley Field. Instead, Sveum was canned because the team

needed “a dynamic new voice,” perhaps so dynamic that it could sing along during the seventh-inning stretch.

Anyway, Epstein issued a five-paragraph, 589-word opus regarding his decision. Most of us are too busy to fuss with such word counts, so I went ahead and selected a handful of my favorite words that Epstein included in his statement.

Painful.

Patient.

Winning.

Soon.

Context, schmontext. Who needs the other 584 words when you’ve got those five? They tell the story of the modern-day Cubs, 105 years and counting without a title.

READY ON EVERY SNAP Sycamore grad splitting time at starting QB for North Dakota

By STEVE NITZ snitz@shawmedia.com When Ryan Bartels signed with North Dakota, there was a reason he didn’t mind playing for a program located 10 hours from home.

Bartels, a three-year starter at quarterback for Sycamore from 2009 to 2011, was willing to deal with the harsh, cold winters that are always present in Grand Forks, N.D., a city of about 50,000 people that lies on the Minnesota border.

“They’re not easy winters and I don’t get to see my family that often,” Bartels said.

“It’s been nice this season, I got a couple family members to come to my games.”

After visiting the school in November 2011, Bartels got to know the players and felt North Dakota was a good fit.

He also knew he would have a chance to play early, which he sites as a big reason for signing there.

Bartels redshirted last season, but is getting a chance to prove himself now.

He started the season opener against Valparaiso and on his first career pass, Bartels launched a 75-yard touchdown pass.

However, Bartels has been splitting time with fellow redshirt freshman Joe Mollberg, and coach Chris Mussman still hasn’t named a permanent starter.

Bartels and Mollberg have each started two games. In UND’s 63-20 loss to Montana State on Saturday, Bartels got the majority of the playing time in the first half, while he and Mollberg each had two series in the second half.

that job?

Most of the chatter has focused on Yankees manager Joe Girardi, a Peoria native and Northwestern alum who has a 642-492 career record and a 2009 World Series title on his managerial resumé. A series of bad contracts is catching up to the Yankees, who missed the playoffs for the first time in five years, and it’s possible Girardi would like a fresh start with a franchise that likely is willing to meet his price.

If Girardi decides to return to the Yankees or join a broadcast booth – he has three children and has spoken about how a TV job could help him be home more often – then the Cubs likely will turn to another candidate with managerial experience.

NIU FOOTBALL ANALYSIS

Huskies, Lynch thriving on play-action passes

By ROSS JACOBSON rjacobson@shawmedia.com Northern Illinois football averaged almost 300 yards rushing through its first three games of the season.

Jordan Lynch, Cameron Stingily and Tommylee Lewis each recorded 100-yard rushing games and the Huskies’ experienced offensive line was dominant as NIU was statis-

tically one of the top rushing teams in the country.

But against Purdue, much of NIU’s early damage in the first half came via the play-action passing game. NIU used some sort of play-action fake on a majority of its passing plays and overall, Lynch was 13 of 20 for 166 yards and three touchdowns on play-action passes.

Most often these included

fake handoffs to Stingily or Keith Harris Jr. up the middle or to Lewis on a fly sweep.

“I think any time that you can run the ball effectively your play-action’s going to work. If you can’t run the ball then you can’t do play-action.

If you can run the ball you can do play-action,” NIU coach Rod Carey said. “I think that those things just kind of go hand in hand and fortunately

we’ve been a good running team to this point.”

On NIU’s first drive, the Huskies drew a pass interference penalty off a play-action pass to Luke Eakes, but Lynch missed a couple of early throws as NIU settled for an opening field goal, But on the next three possessions, Lynch completed 11 consecutive play-action passes in the first half, including his

first two touchdown passes.

A prime example of how NIU’s fakes can manipulate defenders came on 1st-and-10 at the Purdue 49-yard line.

Lynch faked a fly sweep to Stingily, which forced both linebackers to take a few steps laterally to their left and one step towards the line of scrimmage.

Hearing on A-Rod grievance begins NEW YORK – The grievance to overturn Alex Rodriguez’s 211-game suspension began Monday before arbitrator Fredric Horowitz.

The New York Yankees third baseman was wearing a business suit and accompanied by lawyers when he arrived for the session at Major League Baseball’s headquarters.

A three-time AL MVP, Rodriguez was suspended Aug. 5 for alleged violations of baseball’s drug agreement and labor contract. If the case doesn’t settle, a decision by Horowitz is expected this winter.

NHL: WASHINGTON AT BLACKHAWKS, 7 P.M. TODAY, NBCSN, AM-720

MLB

Champs older, but still youthful

BY MARK LAZERUS Chicago Sun-Times Patrick Kane is 24 years old.

Only 24.

Stop for a moment and consider that. A veteran entering his seventh season with his name hammered into the side of the Stanley Cup twice, he’s pretty much just a kid. Just getting started.

It was in 2007 when Kane arrived in Chicago as a wide-eyed 18-year-old, the top pick in the draft, the weight of a moribund franchise and a half-empty arena on his and fellow teen Jonathan Toews’ shoulders. And when that duo – with a bunch of other precocious 20-somethings – brought the Blackhawks their first championship in nearly a half-century three years later, the nights were long and the fun was as limitless as the potential.

Kids being kids.

It’s a little different now, the second time around. Now, the kids are having kids.

“It’s crazy how time flies,” Kane said. “From 2010 to 2013, three years makes a big difference. Guys getting married and having babies [from] guys being single and not having girlfriends. It’s pretty amazing what can change in that short amount of time.”

Indeed, Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook became fathers this year. Bryan Bickell got married. Corey Crawford got engaged. And there are more Hawklings on the way.

“It’s kind of weird,” Keith said of hanging with Seabrook, his longtime buddy and defensive partner. “Conversations go from hockey to changing diapers. Everybody’s getting older now.”

But there’s the rub. The Hawks are getting older, but they are startlingly far from old.

Kane is 24. Toews is 25. Niklas Hjalmarsson is 26. Seabrook is 28. Keith turned 30 during the

summer. Patrick Sharp is a spry 31. They still are young and hungry, but they’re experienced and accomplished. They have youthful vigor and veteran perspective. They’ve done so much together, but they have so much left to do.

In short, they’re prepared to handle the incredible – and perhaps unreasonable – amount of hype and expectations that are being heaped upon them.

There’s no harder trophy to win in sports than the Stanley Cup – remember, even the mighty Hawks were 20 minutes away from elimination in the second round last spring against the Detroit Red Wings – yet the Hawks are being tapped by seemingly every outlet to waltz to their third title in five seasons, to become the first team to repeat since the 1997-98 Red Wings, to build a bona fide dynasty during the next several seasons the likes of which hasn’t been seen in the NHL since the 1980s.

The Hawks, who feel like they’ve seen it all, just shrug it off.

“I think we have guys in here that won’t be affected by all that,” Sharp said. “It’s not just winning it the first time and learning from the 2010-11 season. You’ve got a number of guys in here who have played in huge games, whether it was junior hockey, college hockey, the Olympics, international hockey and a couple of Stanley Cup Finals.

“I like the makeup of our team. We’re a young team, but we’ve been through a lot already in our careers. And hopefully that experience pays off this year.”

They’ll need that veteran poise to handle a season full of big stages – the banner-raising opener today against the Washington Capitals, a dozen national-TV games, a game against the Pittsburgh Penguins on March 1 at Soldier Field and another potentially grueling slog through

the playoffs – as well as the difficulty that comes with facing every team’s “A” game and “A” goalie.

The Hawks got a taste of that when their record 24-game season-opening point streak was reaching into the high teens last season. This season, it’ll be like that every game. There will be no easy nights.

“Obviously, [after] winning a Stanley Cup, people want to prove themselves against you, so there’s always that element of getting teams’ best performances,” Toews said. “At the same time, we’ve got to have that mentality where we’re starting from the ground up, starting over. We want to be a team that’s really hungrier than anyone else and plays the role of the aggressor every single night.”

They also will need that youth to handle what might be an unprecedented grind of a season. They’re coming off a 79-day offseason (the shortest in modern history) that will be followed by a full 82-game season that’s nearly as compressed as the post-lockout schedule, thanks to a three-week interruption for the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia – a tournament that will feature more than half the roster traveling to the other side of the world to play even more high-intensity games.

“I don’t know if it’ll really hit us until about Christmastime,” Seabrook said. “It might turn into a little bit of a grind, but every team’s going to go through that. We had the luxury of playing [23] more playoff games, so I think we’re prepared for the long haul. We’ve played an 82-game season before, and we’re ready to rock.”

Coach Joel Quenneville is older and wiser, too. He learned last season how to keep his team fresh through a compressed season, offering more days off and putting more responsibility on his fourth line to ease the burden

on his top guys. And he learned from the disappointing 2010-11 title defense just how crucial a hot start is.

The Hawks, after losing half their roster that offseason, were a mere 11-11-2 in late November and barely scratched their way into the playoffs as the eighth seed, losing to the Vancouver Canucks in the first round.

Quenneville also knows he can lean on a core group that’s wise beyond its years, one that has managed to not let the two Cups, the four Sports Illustrated covers, the massive Grant Park celebration, the viral YouTube videos and the endless hype get to their heads.

“You look at their demeanor, their character, their approach – they’re always in the right place,” Quenneville said. “Very professional, putting things in perspective and welcoming the next challenge. ... They’ve played in a lot of big games, and I don’t think it changes their approach one bit. I think they just welcome the next challenge.”

Whether that challenge is fatherhood, marriage or the Stanley Cup playoffs, with just the right mix of energy and experience, swagger and savvy, these Hawks appear to be built for the long haul.

“It’s interesting the way things have changed over the years here,” Quenneville said.

“We had a bunch of young guys, and they’re all buddies and they’re young and they’re having a good time. And now they’re young dads. It’s kind of been a fun couple of years here. I can only see it being more fun when the Blackhawks family’s getting bigger and bigger and bigger.”

Along with – assuming things go according to plans and expectations – the trophy case.

BULLS

Boozer: Rose looks ‘smooth’ and ‘scary’

By JOE COWLEY Chicago Sun-Times Carlos Boozer spent a few minutes Monday trying to explain what he has seen from Derrick Rose through the first three days of training camp.

He used descriptions such as “smooth” and “scary” in describing the play of the MVP point guard in team scrimmages.

Then it occurred to Boozer that words won’t be enough.

“You guys will see it soon,” Boozer said, sounding more like a hype man.

So the wait will have to continue with the first test Saturday, when the Bulls play in Indiana. It definitely didn’t come Monday, as Rose was held out

of the scrimmage part of the session.

Before the overreaction begins, no, there were no setbacks with his surgically repaired left ACL. This was a planned rest day for Rose before the camp started.

“We cut him out [Monday],” coach Tom Thibodeau said of Rose’s morning. “It was planned rest. He did some, the warmup phase.

“We had a teaching segment, that of course he participated in, and the warmup phase. But the live stuff, we were planning on giving him [Monday] off.”

Veterans often have rest days throughout camp, so it wasn’t anything that raised eyebrows. But with Rose last playing an NBA game a 1½

years ago, does it mean he will be having more off days than usual?

“We’ll just see,” Thibodeau said. “With all our players, usually the third day and fifth practice we’re dealing with heavy legs. We just thought we’d give him [Monday] off.

Mentally, he’s sharp, so he did his conditioning off the floor.

He’ll be ready to go [today].”

As far as Boozer was concerned, Rose has been ready to go since Saturday, when the team first took the floor. “[Rose] came in almost like he never left,” Boozer said.

“Obviously, playing with him a couple of years ago, not last year, but it’s smooth. He did a great job being in shape. We did a great job of being in shape

so we can get up the floor with him. It makes a huge difference, man.

“Obviously, his scoring ability, but his playmaking ability has gotten leaps-and-bounds better. That’s the fun part of playing with him is he can obviously score for himself, but he makes so many plays for us where all we have to do is finish.”

And in adding muscle from all the hours of rehab, as well as improving his jumper, Boozer sees Rose becoming more lethal for opposing defenses to have to deal with.

“He’s still quick and super athletic,” Boozer said. “He is stronger and his accuracy from outside has gotten a lot better, which is going to be scary.”

SPRINT CUP SERIES Hollywood Casino 400 Race time: noon Sunday Site: Kansas Speedway, Kansas City, Kan. TV: ESPN

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Dale Earnhardt Jr. chased Jimmie Johnson around Dover International Speedway, only to see his teammate grab his record-setting eighth victory at the Monster Mile.

Earnhardt settled for second, his winless streak swelling to 48 races. For those keeping track, that’s just two wins in the 207 races since Earnhardt joined Johnson at Hendrick Motorsports in 2008.

So as Johnson grabbed that milestone victory, pulling within eight points of leader Matt Kenseth in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, more than one skeptical fan wondered if Earnhardt had given less than 100 percent in the closing laps to allow his teammate to win.

Not a chance.

Disappointment oozed from Earnhardt immediately after the race. It was in his voice as he crossed the finish line, and he sounded deflated as he radioed the No. 88 team.

“He’s just so damn fast around here. I don’t know what else I could have done,” Earnhardt said. “I hate losing ’em like that.”

He should.

He doesn’t get many chances like he had Sunday.

Before Sunday, he’d led only 165 laps this season and had just five other top-five finishes.

But at Dover, crew chief Steve Letarte gave him a fast Chevrolet from the very start: Earnhardt was the surprising pole-winner and was in control the first half of the race. Earnhardt led 80 laps at Dover and clearly had a car capable of winning.

Then came his own error – one that cost him dearly.

Earnhardt was headed to pit road for a routine stop under green when he missed the commitment cone to pit

Dale Earnhardt Jr. watches qualifying for Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup series auto race, Friday at Dover International Speedway in Dover, Del. Earnhardt won the pole, but finished second in the race. lane, and was unable to make his scheduled stop. He had to take an extra lap around the track, and the miscalculation dropped him from first to eighth, a whopping 9.3 seconds behind Johnson.

“We had the lead, gave up the lead. Jimmie had the lead and was able to take advantage of that clean air when it counted,” Earnhardt lamented. “If I had not given up that track position, had a smart enough race to keep the lead when it counted right at the end, we might have won the race. It would have been hard to get by us, just like it was to get by Jimmie.”

That’s part of the reason why Earnhardt took Sunday’s defeat so hard. You don’t have to be perfect to win races, but you have to be pretty darn close. Self-inflicted errors are going to hurt every single time.

Johnson, with his five Cup titles, doesn’t make many mistakes. Especially not when the stakes are at their highest. He pounced when Earnhardt erred, and when a debris caution with 29 laps to go sent everybody to pit road one last time, a strategic call

by Letarte still didn’t make a

difference.

Johnson crew chief Chad Knaus called for only two new tires, but Letarte gave Earnhardt four. The No. 88 crew made the change fast enough to get Earnhardt off pit road in fourth, and the excitement in their voices was palpable as they realized they were the first car with four new tires.

Maybe, just maybe, Earnhardt could run down Johnson for his first victory since Michigan in 2012.

“I thought that four tires were going to be enough to get him,” Earnhardt said.

“But he is just that fast around here.”

But had he ever made it to Johnson’s bumper?

“I was definitely going to do whatever I could to win if I could get within reach. I just couldn’t get to him,” Earnhardt shrugged.

The upside is that it was the second consecutive strong run for Earnhardt, who opened the 10-race Chase with a blown engine at Chicago.

He rallied last week with a sixth-place finish at New Hampshire, where he led 17 laps, and his runner-up finish at Dover has moved him to

10th in the 13-driver Chase field.

He won’t win the championship this year. But there’s no shame in that – it’s practically a three-driver race already, with Kenseth, Johnson and Kyle Busch in a different league from the rest of the field.

But this is Earnhardt’s 14th full season at NASCAR’s highest level and he’ll celebrate his 39th birthday next week qualifying at Charlotte Motor Speedway, where he couldn’t race last season because of a concussion.

He’s got a lot of pride, and he knows the clock is ticking on a career that has failed to live up to the expectations set by his rabid fan base.

Earnhardt, though, is never going to be a seven-time champion like his father, the 76-race winner.

He’s just going to be Dale Earnhardt Jr., a guy who fights hard for what he can get on the race track, and shows us just how much it hurts when he comes up short.

NOTES

DeKalb falls to potential playoff foe

By ANTHONY ZILIS sports@daily-chronicle.com

SPOTLIGHT ON ...

GAVIN EBERLY Indian Creek, midfielder/forward, senior Eberly was Indian Creek’s leading returning goal scorer with three goals last year, and he almost equaled that total in Thursday’s 5-2 win over Hiawatha, when he scored two goals and assisted on another.

WHAT TO WATCH FOR Kaneland at Sycamore 4:30 p.m. today The two area rivals will meet for the first time this season, when Sycamore will try to earn its first win in Northern Illinois Big 12 East play.

DeKalb at Kaneland 4:30 p.m., Thursday The Barbs showed off their speed in a 3-1 win in the conference opener a few weeks ago. Now, the Knights will see what they’ve learned in the last few weeks.

POWER RANKINGS 1. DeKalb (8-2, 3-0 Northern Illinois Big 12 East) – The Barbs won two in conference, and lost to possible playoff foe Huntley on Saturday.

2. Genoa-Kingston (8-5-1, 4-2-1 Big Northern Conference) – The Cogs went 2-1 in a successful week, this past week.

3. Kaneland (4-4-3, 1-1-2 NI Big 12 East) – The Knights beat Rochelle for their first conference win last week.

4. Hinckley-Big Rock (12-3-1, 5-2 Little Ten Conference) – The revamped Royals have been strong despite a few slips in LTC play.

5. Sycamore (1-10-1, 0-2-1 NI Big 12 East) – The Spartans will go for their first conference win when they play Yorkville this week.

6. Indian Creek (3-10-1, 2-4 LTC) – The Timberwolves picked up a big conference win over Hiawatha on Thursday.

7. Hiawatha (0-10, 0-7 LTC) – The Hawks are working on learning to play with almost a completely new team this year.

Daily Chronicle / Daily-Chronicle.com

Huntley beat DeKalb 3-1 in the Class 3A DeKalb Regional final last year, and they beat the Barbs 3-1 on Saturday.

The Barbs will likely face Huntley in the regional final once again this year, but that doesn’t necessarily mean things look bleak for DeKalb’s playoff hopes.

The Barbs weren’t completely overmatched Saturday, when the match was tied, 1-1, at the half after Huntley scored on an own goal.

“Going into half, after 40 minutes, we felt really good about where we were at. I thought we did a good job of limiting their chances,” McIntosh said. “I thought we were in a real good spot. We just did not come out in the second half with the same intensity Huntley did. They stepped up their game a little bit, we didn’t step up ours.”

The loss will likely mean that DeKalb will be the second-ranked team in the four-team regional, but the teams will most likely meet on the Barbs’ home turf in late October.

The Barbs play a schedule full

at DeKalb: Staying in a defensive, compact shape can be crucial for teams attempting to beat a more skilled, more athletic opponent.

That’s exactly what Sycamore wanted to do in its game against DeKalb last week.

But the Barbs scored two quick goals, and that game plan was ripped to shreds early.

“We got it so built up in our head that we had to back so far off that we were so far back on our heels, and started swinging a little bit,” coach Dave Lichamer said.

“Whatever we had developed as far as our strategy goes had to shift because we let those two early goals in.”

The two teams meet again Oct. 10, and the Spartans will have another chance to try to hold off the Barbs and possibly nab a counter-attack goal.

Monica Maschak – mmaschak@shawmedia.com “Going down real quick 2-0 DeKalb’s Logan Brown and Sycamore’s Jarrett Brown battle for possession of like that hurts any team, because the ball in the first half of the boys soccer match Sept. 24 at DeKalb High when we wanted to try and keep School.

Adding linesmen an important move for Northern Illinois Big 12 The Northern Illinois Big 12 moved from a two-man referee system this year to a three-man crew, meaning one referee mans the middle of the field and two man the sidelines, which is a big deal.

The most important responsibility of an assistant referee is to monitor whether a given team is offside. In a two-man system, teams trying to execute an offside trap, when the back line steps up in unison to try to draw an opposing forward offside, is especially risky, because the referees are too far away from the play to make the call with

VIEWS Anthony Zilis precision.

The rule also effects the offensive side of the ball, because forwards who know how to perfectly time their runs will be called offside erroneously less often.

“Some of the teams that like to push up, Morris likes to push up to try to play the offsides trap, I think that benefits the teams that do want to play that offsides trap,” McIntosh said. “But I

think it really benefits teams that really want to run in behind them.”

McIntosh thinks the officiating change affects his team more offensively than defensively.

While the Barbs don’t stress using an offside trap, they have speedy forwards who are able to burst in behind defenders without being in an offside position.

“I think more so it helps us offensively than defensively because with the speed that we have, particularly this year, we get behind the other team’s back lines quite a bit, and when you have a linesman whose direct

Huskies, Lynch succeed on fake handoffs • HUSKIES Continued from page B1 This allowed tight end Desroy Maxwell to slip behind the linebackers and Lynch delivered a pass on time for 21 yards before the safeties could help.

“You get the linebackers to respect the run,” Carey said.

“Those are the guys, if you just drop back, they get into their pass drops and they get those windows you want to throw the ball in a lot smaller.

If you can get them, hold them up towards the line of scrimmage, those holes behind them are bigger.”

Two plays later, the fake handoff to Stingily inside drew Purdue’s safety in and left Da’Ron Brown with 1-on-1 coverage. Lynch fired another perfectly placed throw for a 15-yard touchdown.

NIU again took advantage of Purdue’s commitment to stopping the run on Lynch’s second touchdown pass early in the second quarter. Lynch faked an inside run to Stingi-

ly, which drew Purdue’s middle linebacker out of his initial position on the goal line.

Juwan Brescacin ran to the vacated spot and Lynch found him for a 4-yard touchdown.

After a Dechane Durante interception, NIU’s first play on the ensuing drive was a deep ball. Lynch faked the handoff to Stingily, drawing the safety up two yards and allowing Brown, who had beaten the cornerback, to slip well past. However, Lynch underthrew the pass because of Purdue’s pressure and the

cornerback recovered in time to break up the play.

The development of Stingily and Harris along with the threat of Lewis on the outside has allowed Lynch more opportunities in the passing game.

NIU owned a large enough lead that Lynch was benched for most of the fourth quarter.

Matt McIntosh came in and threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to Tim Semisch on 4thand-1 in the fourth quarter. Of course, it came off of play-action.

Carey not worried about NIU’s rankings at the moment • MAC Continued from page B1 Trayion Durham has ran for 344 yards (4.0 yards a carry), and junior Anthony Meray has 102 yards with a 4.1 average.

“I think the one good thing that we’ve established in these last three weeks is depth, with [Archer] not being out there,” Haynes said. “And to see some other things that we can do well and some other guys make plays.”

Carey mum about ranking: NIU coach Rod Carey has nev-

er been someone to talk about national rankings.

After NIU’s 55-24 win at Purdue on Saturday, the Huskies earned the No. 23 spot in the USA Today Coaches Poll (where Carey has a vote), and came in just outside the Associated Press Top 25, finishing 26th with 104 votes.

However, Carey isn’t going to worry about this stuff now. “[Rankings] don’t mean a whole lot, really until the end of the year,” he said. “It must mean people respect us, and that’s great. Really happy with that.”

BSU gets leg up in West Division: Saturday’s matchup between Toledo and Ball State in Muncie, Ind., was a huge game in the MAC West, which looks like it will be a three-team race with the Cardinals, Rockets and NIU. Ball State is now 2-0 in MAC play after the 31-24 win over Toledo, while the Rockets fall to 1-1, but still aren’t out of the division race.

“I thought it was a really hard-fought football game,” Toledo coach Matt Campbell said.

“Their kids made a few more plays to win the game.”

After throwing for 335 yards Saturday, Ball State quarterback Keith Wenning is one of two quarterbacks in FBS (the other being Oregon State’s Sean Mannion) to throw for 300 or more yards in every game.

With running back Jahwan Edwards running for a 2-yard touchdown on the Cardinals’ opening drive, Ball State has now scored on its first drive in every game of the season.

“It’s been a trend,” Ball State coach Pete Lembo said.

“It’ll be hard to continue, but it’s been a trend for us early in the season.”

responsibility is to look for offsides, I think it gives an offensive team an advantage,” McIntosh said.

No matter how it affects each team, the rule change in the NI Big 12 is a good thing. During the post-season, all games use three-man officiating systems, so Sycamore, Kaneland and DeKalb will all have more experience playing with the ideal amount of officials than they did last year.

Bartels fighting to be No. 1 QB for North Dakota football team • BARTELS Continued from page B1 It’s not an ideal situation, and Bartels said he has to prepare like he’s going to take every snap. Mussman hasn’t determined which quarterback will start this week’s game against Idaho State.

Bartels has completed 59 percent of his passes for 452 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. Mollberg also has a 59 percent completion percentage, with 627 yards, five touchdowns and four picks.

“They’re going to keep evaluating us, and seeing what we’re going to do,” Bartels said. “I’m not sure what they’re going to do.”

In preparation for the quarterback competition in fall camp, Bartels stayed in Grand Forks for strength and conditioning and 7-on-7s. He was only in Sycamore for a week, which he said was

tough, not getting a ton of time with friends, but something which had to be done to fight for the starting job.

“As a redshirt, you don’t really know the guys that well,” Bartels said. “... I think that was the biggest thing this summer was getting to know the guys and getting comfortable around them.”

Sycamore coach Joe Ryan is following Bartels’ collegiate career, not only because he’s a former player, but because the two have had a good relationship ever since Bartels was at Sycamore.

Ryan doesn’t doubt that Bartels can be a good college quarterback.

“There’s two things. One, he’s a film junkie, he really understands the game because he’s watching so much film. He really understands what he’s seeing,” Ryan said.

“Two, he’s got a big-time arm, he can make all the throws.”

BEARS NOTES

Trestman pleased how team battled to end

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@shawmedia.com LAKE FOREST – Marc Trestman stayed positive immediately following his first loss as the Bears’ head coach, and after having time to watch the tape, that positivity continued into Monday.

“Obviously, we didn’t win the game, and it sounds like we did by what I just had to say,” he said following a list of several of the bright spots in the Bears’ 40-32 loss to the Lions.

On defense, Trestman lauded how the unit handled Calvin Johnson, defended the Lions on third down and in the red zone, and how they played after halftime.

“Second half, we held them to three points and Stafford, who had come into the game with almost a 100 rating, left the game with about an 83 rating,” he said.

Linebacker Lance Briggs said that Trestman did harp on the things that went awry for the Bears, but remained

pleased with how the team battled at the end.

“He enhanced the negative at halftime and how we needed to turn it around, and after the game he enhanced the positives that we fought, and to take something from that game that this is a team of fighters,” Briggs said.

Tackling the issue: One negative that Trestman and Briggs both harped on was the inability to get Reggie Bush to the turf on several occasions. Bush broke tackles left and right,

and the Bears have another tough test in a similar player with Saints running back Darren Sproles next week.

“Defensively, we have to do a better job with our fits and our tackling, that was the least productive part of our football,” Trestman said. “They had over 100 yards rushing on missed tackles and missed fits, so that’s really where we have to focus on defensively regarding our run defense.”

Briggs, who led the team with 13 tackles, said the frus-

trating part was that Bush got big gains against eight-man fronts.

“Missed tackles, not being in our gaps. That’s it. It’s that simple,” he said. “When you talk about an eight-man front it means somebody wasn’t in their gap or something happened for somebody to not be in their gap.”

Help from Izzy: Per an ESPN Chicago report, a Bears player thought the Lions’ offense knew Chicago’s stunt calls via former Bear and current Lion

Israel Idonije, which gave Bush an advantage. Briggs didn’t think Idonije could have given them much help. “What information could Izzy give them?” he said. “We play the Detroit Lions twice a year for as long as I’ve known. They have all the information that they need. We’re not a complicated defense.” When asked if it looked like the Lions knew what the Bears’ defense was doing, Trestman responded, “No, I don’t think there was any evidence of that at all on the tape.”

Bears only played well with the Lions in prevent mode Grading the Bears’ 40-32 failure in Detroit is an iffy proposition. To hear the coaches and players tell it, there was much to feel good about in the second half.

I’m afraid I didn’t see it.

True, the Bears “won” the second half, 19-10, and outgained the Lions, 250-127. And they didn’t quit.

The problem with that interpretation is the Lions won the first half, 30-13, when both clubs were playing on the same terms to win the game.

Had the Lions not played the entire second half in prevent mode, gladly trading yardage and occasional points for time off the clock, the glass half-full scenario might be more viable.

But the truth is, when both clubs were playing by the same rules, this was ugly.

Jay Cutler gets a C-. His 317 yards passing and two touchdowns count for something and, toward the end, when the Bears were playing because the rules required them to stay on the field for 60 minutes, he still was making the occasional throw most quarterbacks can’t.

But his three interceptions and lost fumble for a Lions touchdown were the main reason the Bears got beat.

Matt Forte gets a B+.

I can’t grade the running backs, because Forte, for the most part, is the only one who played. He was in on 71 of the Bears 72 offensive snaps.

VIEWS Hub Arkush Tony Fiammetta was on the field for 10 plays, strictly as a blocker and Michael Bush was on the field for just two plays, one of which was Forte’s 53-yard touchdown run. As a group, they get an incomplete.

The wide receivers get a B-. Alshon Jeffery had a nice game, catching five passes for 107 yards and a touchdown and racing 27 yards on an end around. Brandon Marshall’s seven catches for 79 yards is a nice day for most pass catchers, although a bit less than we expect from him.

But those two and Earl Bennett – the only three wideouts to play – were targeted 29 times and caught just 14 of them. Much of that’s on Cutler but some has to be on his receivers.

The offensive line gets a C-. Cutler was under more pressure than he has been at any time this season and was sacked as often in this game – three times – as he had been in the first three games combined.

But when you’re down 20 points in the first half and throw the ball 47 times, some of that is going to happen.

On the defensive line, give Julius Peppers an A- and everyone else a D. Peppers

showed up and, with any help at all, the game might have gone differently. But he got no help from his linemen and the Bears are at the point this really must be addressed.

The linebackers get a C and even that’s tough because the defense spent so much time in nickel, it’s hard to grade them at all. But with Reggie Bush rushing for over 100 yards in the first half for the first time in his career, everyone must share the blame.

The secondary gets a C as well. They/Charles Tillman did their usual commendable job on Calvin Johnson but had Matt Stafford not been almost as off as Cutler in the first half, this game actually could have been much worse.

Special teams get a D+. It’s unclear what the plan was in the punting game, but Adam Podlesh was awful with a net 28.8 on five punts. Devin Hester was average in the return game and the coverage was average to terrible on the 57-yard punt return it allowed Micheal Spurlock.

This was a game the Bears would like to forget. But if they don’t remember it well and make significant corrections immediately, New Orleans could make it start to look like a dangerous trend.

Plenty of questions surround Cubs • MUSICK Continued from page B1 Perhaps Mike Scioscia would come to the North Side if he parts ways with the gigantic mess that is the Los Angeles Angels of Suburban Los Angeles. Ron Gardenhire signed a two-year deal to stay with the Minnesota Twins, so cross his name off of the list.

There must be at least a few other qualified candidates. Hey, does anybody have Lou Piniella’s cellphone number? (Better question: Does Sweet Lou have a cell phone?)

It’s fun to speculate on the Cubs’ next hire (well, maybe not fun for Sveum), but all of this commotion serves a valuable purpose for the Cubs’ front-office fraternity. We’re focusing on available managers instead of scrutinizing Epstein, who is on Day 707 of building a better tomorrow.

We’re evaluating Sveum instead of grading the moves of general manager Jed Hoyer and scouting director Jason McLeod, whose top prospect (Javier Baez) actually was drafted by former general manager Jim Hendry.

Maybe Sveum would have turned out to be a great manager, or maybe he would have proved to be a dud. We never will know, at least not at Clark and Addison, because he never had a chance to manage a legitimate major league team.

Maybe Girardi or someone else can help to turn things around.

Until then, Epstein is left

with a team filled with questions and an official statement filled with words.

Painful.

Patient.

Winning.

Mastectomy fails to chase husband away Dear Abby: I am writing in response to “Anonymous in Wisconsin” (Aug. 11), the cancer survivor whose husband has lost interest in her after her double mastectomy. I am OUTRAGED by his insensitivity and lack of love. She says she doesn’t want to leave him. My question to her is, why not? She deserves better.

I am a cancer survivor who was diagnosed with breast cancer seven months after I was married. Prior to my decision to have a radical mastectomy, I offered my husband the chance to leave.

(After all, one doesn’t expect “worse” to come so soon after the wedding.) The prospect of children, which we had discussed and was important to us, was uncertain because of my subsequent chemotherapy. My husband didn’t hesitate. He said, “You would not leave me. We will adopt.”

On our first wedding

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips anniversary I was bald, and he treated me to a beautiful, romantic getaway. Although I did have reconstruction, it was a long process. He was supportive from day one.

Fifteen years later, I was diagnosed with breast cancer again. I had another radical mastectomy followed by chemo and reconstruction. Abby, my husband again made me feel beautiful even when I didn’t. There are men out there who define a woman not by the size of her breasts, but by the beauty of her heart. – Survivor in Natick, Mass.

Dear Survivor: I want to thank you and the many breast cancer survivors who wrote me – and their supportive spouses – for telling

me your personal stories.

Readers, I am printing this to remind you that October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Read on: Dear Abby: I had to write to “Anonymous.” I kept hoping my husband of 20 years would change his mind and accept my new body. However, because he could not, I chose to divorce him and it liberated me.

At first, I felt that if the one person who was supposed to care couldn’t look at me, then no other man would either. I was wrong. After five years of dating, I never once encountered a man who was as insensitive as my husband had been. I have now found the man of my dreams.

In some respects, my “medical adventures,” as I refer to them, were the best thing that ever happened.

They enabled me to see my ex for who he really was, and find a man who truly IS a

man. – Got a New Set and a New Life Dear Abby: Breast cancer doesn’t ruin your life unless you let it.

I am 66 years old. When I was in high school, my mom had a breast removed. My parents and I just took it in stride. It didn’t define us. Dad adored her.

Mom would come in dressed up for whatever reason and ask, “Am I even?” because the “falsies” then were made of foam and were lightweight. She kept the vacation money pinned to it.

She made a few new friends faint when she used it as a pin cushion. Dad died at 90, and Mom died the following year.

Mom could have helped “Anonymous.” She would have cut her a slice of homemade pie, poured a cup of coffee, sat down at the table and just talked to her. Women need other women. “Anony-

mous” should find a friend who has gone through the same thing and talk and pray.

She needs both. – Earlene in Texas Dear Abby: My wife went through a lumpectomy, chemotherapy, then radiation.

During that time she went to work every day, except when she had a treatment.

Of course, I have a visual reminder of what she went through when we share an intimate moment, but she has had to deal with it every day of her life since then. When I see her scar, I think about how strong she was going through that difficult period of time. Rather than drive us apart, it has brought us closer together than I ever thought possible. – Husband of a Breast Cancer Survivor

Antiviral medicines help ease shingles pain Dear Dr. K: I’ve been diagnosed with shingles. What can I take for the pain?

Dear Reader: Shingles, also known as herpes zoster or just zoster, is caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It is the same virus that causes chickenpox. Once you have had chickenpox, the varicella-zoster virus remains in your body’s nerve tissues.

It is inactive, but it can be reactivated later in life. This causes shingles.

When the virus reactivates, it causes a burning or tingling sensation in the affected areas. A few days later, the virus causes a blistery rash. (I’ve put an illustration of this process on my website, AskDoctorK.com.) Your affected skin may be so painful and sensitive that you cannot even stand having your cloth-

ASK DR. K Anthony L. Komaroff ing touching the area. One patient of mine with shingles on his forearm switched for several weeks to wearing a short-sleeved shirt to the office, something he never had worn to work before.

If you’re over age 50 and have had shingles pain for less than three days, the current recommendations call for doctors to prescribe antiviral medicine to kill the virus that causes shingles. (If you are younger than 50 and very uncomfortable from shingles that began in the last three days, your doctor may still prescribe antiviral therapy.)

The two medicines rec-

ommended most often are famciclovir (Famvir) and valacyclovir (Valtrex). These antiviral medications not only help shorten the days of pain that you have, they also help reduce the risk of long-lasting shingles pain, a condition called post-herpetic neuralgia.

The pain that accompanies shingles can be intense. If the antiviral medicine does not provide enough relief, you can take additional pain medicines. Start with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen. If necessary, your doctor will prescribe more potent pain medicines; these include codeine, tramadol and (when the pain is very severe) oxycodone.

Some studies led doctors to add corticosteroid drugs such as prednisone to the

treatment of shingles. However, as more studies of this treatment have been completed, it looks as though these medicines may offer more risks than benefits.

You should also gently rinse your skin rash and blisters once or twice daily with cool water. Your doctor may suggest that you use antibiotic ointment on open areas.

Shingles usually takes seven to 10 days to run its course.

Blisters may take several weeks to disappear completely. The duration of pain is highly variable. Most people’s pain decreases within two or three months.

However, a small number of people develop post-herpetic neuralgia and continue to have pain for many months, or even years. Different medications from those used

during the attack of shingles are effective. These include tricyclic drugs, gabapentin and pregabalin. These drugs alter the way your central nervous system perceives pain signals. If the pain is severe, then the more potent drugs used for the pain of shingles may also be helpful.

These include oxycodone, morphine and methadone.

Other treatments for post-herpetic neuralgia being evaluated, but as yet unproven, include capsaicin, topical lidocaine and acupuncture. A shingles vaccine is recommended for most adults age 60 and older. Even though treatment is effective, nothing beats preventing the condition in the first place.

When parents split, the children are innocent Dr. Wallace: My parents are getting a divorce, and my dad has already left our house. I’m 13, and I feel like it is my fault that they are splitting up. I always played one against the other, and if my mom wouldn’t let me do something, I always went to my dad and he would almost always say yes. Then the two of them would always get into a huge argument about it, and I would feel bad, but I don’t know why I kept doing it.

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace I’ve tried to talk to both of them about this and apologize for doing it and promised not to do it again, but they said it wasn’t my fault and not to think that way. But they are still going to get a divorce.

TODAY – Take care of some emotional concerns in the coming months. This is not the year to neglect your health or your personal needs. Make changes to your lifestyle that will improve your state of mind and your future position and reputation. Refuse to let anyone interfere in or control your situation.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – If you participate in functions that involve a lot of people from all walks of life, you will encounter someone interesting. Revisit an old idea.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Emotional deception must not be allowed to creep into your life or influence your decisions. Think outside the box, and you will find the answer you are looking for.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – It’s a good day to get away, even if it is only a short distance. Visiting new places will spark your imagination and help you find ways to improve your current living situation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t feel pressured by what everyone else is doing. Take whatever path you feel most comfortable following and can afford. Emotional blackmail must not alter your plans.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Look for ways to improve your financial situation. What you learn may not help you immediately, but should allow you greater choice regarding your income potential in the long term.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Diverse interests will lead to interesting opportunities. There are financial gains to be made if you partner with someone you feel akin to or who can complement your skills and personality.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Your unpredictable nature will get you into trouble. Slow down and consider outside influences before you make a costly error that could upset an important relationship.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Make a promise and keep it, and you will develop a long-lasting relationship with someone who is in sync with you. If you make the right moves, Cupid will be in your corner.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Someone involved will be upset if you make any drastic decisions regarding your immediate surroundings. Communicate openly and honestly before you proceed.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Take a break and engage in activities that will broaden your outlook and bring you in contact with interesting people. What you learn will prove enlightening.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Pursue the changes that will help you get ahead professionally. A career involvement could improve your income, but make sure you can do the work before you commit to do so.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Mingle and engage in playful interactions with people who interest you or have unusual skills. Use emotional situations to promote the changes you want to see take place.

back together? Please hurry with your answer. – Nameless, Crown Point, Ind. Nameless: Children are never to blame when parents split up. You are probably not aware of many other more serious problems in their marriage that have caused this divorce. Your parents are incompatible, and that is the reason for their split. Most children play one parent against the other from time to time if

8SUDOKU

their parents let them get away with it. And when they get away with it, this is also a signal that the parents have lost control and are not even united in their rule setting for their child. So, please stop blaming yourself.

A family split-up is devastating for everyone, but it has an extremely traumatic effect on the children. I understand how difficult things are right now for everyone and offer my deepest

sympathy. My best advice is that you do your best to stay cheerful around Mom because she, too, is probably very depressed. Now is the time for you both to gain comfort from each other, and work together to adjust to this new situation.

8CROSSWORD

BRIDGE Phillip Alder

What is the lead you do not want?

Alexander Smith, a 19th-century Scottish poet, said, “Everything is sweetened by risk.”

Not when you are a declarer!

Then, you should aim to make your contract without risk.

However, declarer usually faces various dangers. In today’s deal, he must work to keep a particular opponent off the lead.

South cruises into four spades. West, who overcalled in clubs, leads the diamond king.

After East signals with the jack, how should declarer plan the play?

In the modern style, North responded three spades, showing a weak hand with four-card spade support. With a game-invitational hand, North would have cue-bid three clubs. This is a good idea because it allows responder to bid both constructively and obstructively.

Declarer starts with nine top tricks (six spades, two hearts and one diamond) and hopes to establish dummy’s heart suit.

But he is in danger of losing four tricks: one heart, one diamond and two clubs. However, he risks losing those two clubs only if East gains lead.

South must duck at the first trick – avoidance play number one. East’s careful play of the diamond jack indicates that he also has the 10, a potential entry card.

Then, after taking the second trick with his diamond ace, declarer draws trumps ending on the board and leads a low heart to his 10 – avoidance play number two. West wins with his queen, but cannot do better than cash the club ace to stop an overtrick.

Note that if South takes the first trick or plays off three rounds of hearts, East gets on lead to push a club through South’s king.
