Rauner: State must sacrifice to grow Critics say the new governor’s inauguration speech not specific

By SARA BURNETT and KERRY LESTER The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner moved quickly to address Illinois’ budget mess Monday, taking the oath of office and then ordering state agencies to immediately freeze all nonessential spending.

The wealthy businessman told those at his inauguration ceremony in Springfield that

Illinois has become less competitive and that businesses and residents have fled the state because of high taxes and over-regulation.

He said addressing the multibillion-dollar budget hole and other problems will require sacrifice, but is the only way to turn Illinois around.

“Each person here today and all those throughout the state will be called upon to share in the sacrifice so that one day we can again share in

Illinois’s prosperity,” he said.

“We all must shake up our old ways of thinking.”

Democrats, who hold veto-proof majorities in the Illinois House and Senate, criticized Rauner’s speech as rhetoric that was short on specifics.

They said the real test will come next month, when the new governor will have to propose a budget for next year.

Senate President John Cullerton, a Chicago Democrat, called parts of Rauner’s speech inaccurate, saying he seemed unaware of some of the progress the state has made in the past six years.

He said Rauner, who is hold-

ing office for the first time, “is going to have to learn about state government” and the budget.

Cullerton and other Democrats also said it was unclear what impact, if any, the spending freeze would have.

“I don’t know exactly what that means, and I don’t know if he does either, but it sounds great,” Cullerton said.

Monday’s inauguration wasn’t the appropriate time for Rauner to delve into specifics, said Hinckley Republican Rep. Bob Pritchard.

He said the speech was more about changing attitudes about

Mix and mingle

By DARIA SOKOLOVA dsokolova@shawmedia.com SYCAMORE – Dawn Hobbs found herself with some free time since she is divorced and her children are grown.

To fill the void, she decided to join Sycamore Singles, a local group that gives everyone an opportunity to socialize and meet new friends. On Wednesday, Hobbs was at Cabana Charley’s Restaurant in Sycamore for a weekly trivia game that brought about 15 other group members to socialize and have fun on a cold January night.

“It’s been great,” said Hobbs, who was talking to several other people at the end of the table. “We have become really good friends.

We have a lot of fun when we get together; we do all kinds of different activities.”

As time rolled toward 5 p.m., the number of free spots at the table dwindled.

Leslie Miller, a Sycamore mother and one of the group’s co-founders, said the group has been growing for the past few months, as Sycamore Singles provides an opportunity to get together, have fun and make new friends whether they are single or divorced. In general, the age of group participants range from 30 to 60.

Unlike some of the matchmaking dating programs, such as Tinder, OkCupid or Match, Sycamore Singles is geared toward socializing

MALTA – Lengthy negotiations between the Kishwaukee College Education Association and administrators gained traction Monday, likely staving off a strike that could have begun as early as Friday.

During a session Monday with a third-party mediator, the union gave a proposal that included $1.6 million in savings to the college, which comes from givebacks on retiree insurance, said Kenzo Shibata, spokesman for Illinois Federation of Teachers. The federation is assisting the union, which represents 81 full-time faculty members, in the negotiations.

The union has agreed to pick up a portion of insurance premiums and “This was cap the retiree insurance contribua big hit that the tions, according to a news release. union was “This was a big hit that the union willing to make a was willing to take compromise.” to make a compromise,” Shibata said.

Kenzo Shibata Since last Illinois Federation of spring, the union Teachers spokesman has been trying to negotiate higher salaries and better benefits.

The most recent contracts expired in August.

The closed negotiations began at 4 p.m.

Monday and continued past 9 p.m. Negotiations will resume Jan. 21. Shibata said both sides are “very close” on a pay negotiation, but that figure was unavailable.

In light of an intent-to-strike the union filed with the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board, faculty could go on strike as early as Friday.

Shibata said with negotiations moving forward, a strike now seems unlikely.

“Talks were pretty productive, and there was movement on both sides,” Shibata said.

College President Tom Choice – who was in Springfield for the gubernatorial inauguration – received a text message Monday evening by the chief negotiator saying the negotiations were “very close,” but no deal had been reached yet. Choice praised the length of the meeting.

“This is what we’ve been asking for since June, just to stay as long as it takes,” he said.

TODAY’S TALKER

Police: 6 Paris terrorists may be at large

By JAMEY KEATEN The Associated Press PARIS – As many as six members of a terrorist cell involved in the Paris attacks may still be at large, including a man who was seen driving a car registered to the widow of one of the gunmen, French police said Monday.

The disclosure came as France deployed 10,000 troops to protect sensitive sites – including Jewish schools and neighborhoods – in the wake of the attacks that killed 17 people last week.

Brothers Cherif and Said Kouachi and their friend, Amedy Coulibaly, were killed Friday by police after a murderous spree at the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo and a kosher supermarket. The three all claimed ties to Islamic extremists in the Middle East.

Two police officials told The Associated Press that authorities were searching the Paris area for the Mini Cooper registered to Hayat Boumeddiene, Coulibaly’s widow. Turkish officials said she is now in Syria.

One of the police officials said the cell consisted of about 10 members, and that “five or six could still be at large,” but he did not provide their names.

The other official said the cell

One of the men believed to be part of the cell has been seen driving Boumeddiene’s car around Paris in recent days, the two officials said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the investigation with the media.

They cautioned that it was not clear whether the driver was an operative, involved in logistics, or had some other,

less-violent role in the cell.

An Interior Ministry official declined to comment on an ongoing investigation, and a spokeswoman for the Paris prosecutor’s office was not immediately available for comment.

One of the police officials also said Coulibaly apparently set off a car bomb Thursday in the town of Villejuif, but no one was injured, and it did not receive significant media attention at the time.

Prime Minister Manuel

Valls said the manhunt is urgent because “the threat is still present” from the attacks.

“The work on these attacks, on these terrorist and barbaric acts continues ... because we consider that there are most probably some possible accomplices,” Valls told BFM television.

The nationwide deployment of troops was to be completed by today and would focus on the most sensitive locations, Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said.

By midday Monday, soldiers and police filled Paris’ Marais district – one of the country’s oldest Jewish neighborhoods. About 4,700 of the security forces would be assigned to protect France’s 717 Jewish schools, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said.

“A little girl was telling me earlier that she wanted to live in peace and learn in peace in her school,” Cazeneuve said on a visit to a Paris Jewish classroom, where the walls were covered with children’s drawings of smiling faces.

“That’s what the government, that’s what the Republic, owes to all the children in France: security in all schools, especially in the schools that could be threatened,” he added.

Divers locate black boxes of AirAsia jet

By ACHMAD IBRAHIM The Associated Press PANGKALAN BUN, Indonesia – Divers retrieved one black box Monday and located the other from the AirAsia plane that crashed more than two weeks ago, key developments that should help investigators unravel what caused the aircraft to plummet into the Java Sea. The flight data recorder was pulled from beneath a piece of the aircraft’s wing and brought to the surface. The cockpit voice recorder was found hours later, said Suryadi Bambang Supriyadi, operation coordinator for Indonesia’s national search and rescue agency. He said the voice recorder was about 66 feet from the data recorder but remained lodged beneath heavy wreckage, and divers were struggling to free

it at a depth of 105 feet.

Searchers began zeroing in on the location a day earlier after three Indonesian ships picked up intense pings from the area, but they could not see the devices because of strong currents and poor visibility.

The two instruments, which emit signals from their beacons, are vital to understanding what brought Flight 8501 down Dec. 28, killing all 162 people on board. They should provide essential information about the plane and all of the conversations between the captain and co-pilot for the duration of the flight.

“There’s like 200-plus parameters they record,” said aviation safety expert John Goglia, a former U.S. National Transportation Safety Board member. “It’s going to provide us an ocean of material.”

The flight data recorder

will be taken to Jakarta, Indonesia’s capital, for evaluation, and the other black box will be sent as soon as it is retrieved.

It could take up to two weeks to download and analyze their information, said Nurcahyo Utomo, an investigator at the National Committee for Safety Transportation.

The slow-moving hunt, which has often gone days with little progress, was boosted over the weekend when the Airbus A320’s tail was lifted from the seabed. It was the first major wreckage excavated from the crash site, but the black boxes were not inside.

Search efforts have been consistently hampered by big waves and powerful currents created by the region’s rainy season. Silt and sand, along with river runoff, have created blinding conditions for divers.

Henry Bambang Soelistyo,

head of the national search and rescue agency, said Sunday divers had located a wing and debris from an engine.

Officials have been working urgently to locate the main section of the plane’s cabin, where many of the victims’ corpses are believed to be entombed.

So far, only 48 bodies have been recovered. Decomposition is making identification more difficult for desperate families waiting to bury their loved ones. Nearly all of the passengers were Indonesian.

“I still believe many victims remain trapped there, and we must find them,” said Gen. Moeldoko, Indonesia’s military chief, who uses one name.

He said more than 80 divers are involved in the recovery effort and have been ordered to make finding the fuselage their top priority.

Senate advances Keystone bill despite Obama veto threat

By DAVID ESPO and DINA CAPPIELLO The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Legislation approving construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline cleared an initial Senate hurdle Monday, a victory for newly empowered Republicans angling for a quick veto showdown with President Barack Obama.

The bipartisan 63-32 vote was three more than the 60 required, and well above the level the highly controversial measure gained when Democrats controlled the Senate.

The measure has sparked intense debate over the Canada-to-Texas pipeline’s potential impact on employment and the environment.

While the project was proposed six years ago, the White House opposes the legislation

as long as the administration is still conducting its formal review.

But with more than enough votes at their command, Republican and Democratic supporters said they hoped the legislation could win final approval and be sent to the White House by the end of next week.

“President Obama has every reason to sign the jobs and infrastructure bill that we will pass,” said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.

Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, made the case for the opposition. He said that if constructed, the pipeline would carry “some of the dirtiest, most dangerous and most polluting oil in the world.” He called the project “anti-clear water, anti-clear air, anti-public health.”

The proposed 1,179-mile

pipeline would begin in Canada, enter the United States at Morgan, Montana, cut across South Dakota and connect with an existing pipeline in Steele City, Nebraska, that in turn reaches refineries along the Texas Gulf Coast. It would carry an estimated 800,000 barrels of crude oil a day.

The White House has repeatedly threatened a veto. If Obama follows through, it will become the first of what are expected to be numerous clashes with the Republican majorities now in control of both houses of Congress.

Since Congress convened Jan. 6, the White House has issued a total of five veto threats, including two Monday.

By bringing the legislation to a vote after taking over the Senate majority, Republicans hope to achieve two goals.

Passing the measure is the

first. Ushering in a new era of open Senate debate, with the opportunity for lawmakers to seek votes on proposed changes, is the second.

“It’s the latest example of Congress getting back to work under a new Republican majority,” said McConnell, in a jab at Democrats who have generally blocked votes on amendments over the past few years.

Democrats said they welcomed that, and some readied proposed changes that would try to put Republicans on record concerning climate change.

The Republican-controlled House passed pipeline legislation last week, as it often has in recent years. This time, the Senate is in Republican hands, and the legislation commands enough bipartisan support to assure its approval – if not enough to override a veto.

Hinckley’s water treatment Concerns fading over DeKalb plant could trigger growth plans for building inspections

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com HINCKLEY – To Hinckley Village President Jim Roderick, the village’s new wastewater treatment plant might as well be a welcome sign.

The new facility has enough capacity for a population of 5,000 people, meaning Hinckley has room for nearly 3,000 more residents.

“To me,” Roderick said, “it gives us the opportunity to invite people to the town.”

Hinckley village officials said the plant was their biggest accomplishment in 2014. What’s more, the plant clears the way for them to accomplish their goal of attracting new businesses and residents in 2015.

The plant, which opened in the fall, can handle 500,000 gallons of wastewater a day, more than double the capacity of the former plant, Roderick said. Village officials had to construct it because of an administrative order from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency. The new plant has received two state awards.

To pay for the plant, the village took out a $5 million low-interest loan from the IEPA that will be repaid over the next 20 years through residents’ quarterly water bills.

“I think now that we have that out of way, we have a big opportunity to shape what Hinckley is going to look like for the next 30 years,” Roderick said.

In the same vein, village

With a new annexation agreement, Roderick hopes the developers can finish the subdivision.

Village officials also plan to explore establishing a tax increment financing district, which would enable the village to encourage development by freezing the property tax local governments receive from properties within an area of the village.

As the value of the property in the district increases, the corresponding increases in property taxes are diverted to a special account and used for additional improvements.

Trustee Dale Clark said he wants to see the TIF proposal before deciding if a TIF district is right for Hinckley, but he’d like to see more businesses.

Hinckley’s downtown bustles with small businesses and a grocery store, but the community could use more business and residential growth, he said.

Trustee Joe Diedrich, who has been involved in village government on and off since 1977, hopes something like a TIF district could be successful. If it takes hold, he hopes it would bring more light industry, and in turn homes, to Hinckley.

“I’m proud of the town,” Diedrich said. “I’m proud of what we accomplished. I just don’t want to see it go to waste.”

Friday is estimated to be a total loss, according to fire officials.

Damage is estimated at about $500,000, according to a news release.

Fire crews from Sycamore, Cortland, DeKalb, Genoa-Kingston, Maple Park, Hampshire, Elburn and Malta all responded to the scene, 439 E. State St., at about 3:50 p.m. Friday.

A portion of State Street was blocked off for about two hours while crews controlled the fire.

Flames shot from the roof and spread to the dining area.

Smoke could be seen for miles.

No injuries were reported.

The fire was still under investigation as of Monday morning

by Sycamore police and fire departments and the state fire marshal, Assistant Fire Chief Marc Doty said.

“The building has been turned back over to the owner,” he said. “There is nothing pointing to it being a suspicious fire.”

Since the investigation is on-going, Doty could not comment further.

Several witnesses told police a gray or blue minivan driving west on State Street turned left onto Main Street, struck a pedestrian and continued driving, according to a police report.

After receiving several tips from witnesses, police found the vehicle in a parking lot in the 400 block of Park Avenue.

The driver, Dawn Marie Tenorio, 29, of the 700 block of North 13th Street in DeKalb was charged with leaving the scene of accident, failure to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk and driving without insurance.

The pedestrian was transported to Kishwaukee Hospital with nonlife-threatening injuries, authorities said.

Tenorio was released after she posted a $1,000 bail. She is due in court today.

DeKALB – Members of DeKalb’s business community still have some concerns about the proposed building inspection ordinance, but their concerns are waning as the proposal moves closer to becoming law.

Six people spoke during a public hearing at Monday’s DeKalb City Council meeting regarding the proposed Fire Safety Registration and Inspection Program.

Most of them picked apart specific pieces of the new program, while acknowledging the proposal is heading in the right direction.

Among them was Will Heinisch, the co-founder of FOCUS DeKalb, who pointed out 13 changes FOCUS members suggested. He remained skeptical of the need for the program, but offered willingness to work with the city.

“I believe we all can come mutually to agree on the terms,” Heinisch said. “Even though no ordinance may be needed for a program which seems to be authorized by existing law.”

On-duty firefighters would complete a basic fire inspection in all commercial and industrial buildings, with the first round of inspections slated to be

finished within three years of the ordinance going into effect.

Inspections would occur on a three-year revolving cycle unless inspectors identified safety hazards.

The city and the building owner would enter into a compliance agreement that establishes a time frame for addressing any violations firefighters find.

Firefighters also would do a pre-plan walk-through to create a map of the building.

There is no fee for the inspection or the walk-through.

Building owners can deny inspections if they can provide a comprehensive insurance inspection.

They also have the right to refuse inspections, although the city can obtain a warrant.

Resident Linda Walt said the program is far from the unwieldy one city leaders

proposed in September.

At the time, they cited the deterioration of the Wurlittzer building, Otto’s and the Travel Inn as evidence the city needed to do more to ensure buildings were safe.

Still, Walt, called for some tweaks, suggesting city staff clarify the language about buildings that are grandfathered in to previous building codes.

“We really need to know, as an owner of the building, when you’re coming in, exactly what should I have done in order to pass this inspection,” Walt said.

Meanwhile, resident Marianne Anderson suggested staff create an independent appeals board for alleged violations.

The program could pass as soon as Feb. 9. While some raised concerns about the timeline, Mayor John Rey said he was comfortable with it.

“I’m pleased that city staff certainly spent a number of hours over several months, four plus months, listening to community concerns and I think those are reflected in the ordinance,” Rey said.

“The nature of the comments this evening, I think represented the work that went into redrafting the ordinance.”

Police: Traffic stop turns into scuffle; 2 charged

By DARIA SOKOLOVA dsokolova@shawmedia.com DeKALB – A 25-year-old DeKalb man faces criminal charges after he allegedly fought with a DeKalb County Sheriff’s deputy Sunday until officers used on stun gun on him.

According a police news release, a deputy stopped a vehicle near the intersection of Sycamore and East Dresser roads at 10:45 p.m. for a headlight violation.

The driver, Hugo C. Gaona, 25, of the 1000 block of Locust Street in DeKalb, told the deputy that he didn’t have a driver’s license and that he was visiting from Mexico. He gave the deputy a fake name.

When the officer tried to handcuff Gaona, Gaona knocked the officer to the ground, pushed and hit him, records show. The deputy then used a stun gun to subdue Ga-

ona and took him to DeKalb County Jail.

Gaona is charged with obstructing justice, battery, aggravated battery, obstruction of identification, resisting a police officer, records show. He also was wanted for allegedly failing to appear in court in a domestic battery case.

Gaona remained in jail Monday unable to post $2,500 bail.

He is next due in court Thursday, officials said. Jail officials also indicated he also has a pending immigration issue, and would be turned over to immigration officials if he posted bail in the criminal case.

The owner of the vehicle, Paige Parnell, 20, of the 600 block of North 13th Street, DeKalb, was a passenger in the vehicle when it was stopped.

Parnell was charged with permitting an unauthorized person to drive and obstructing a police officer, according to a news release.

Quinn leaves Rauner to make medical marijuana decisions

By CARLA K. JOHNSON and SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner inherited the prickly question of who should get medical marijuana business permits Monday as his predecessor left office without acting on the matter.

In his last hours as governor, Democrat Pat Quinn announced his administration would not issue licenses to get the state’s marijuana industry off the ground, although he enacted penalties for violations if and when it does.

Quinn’s last-minute bill signing also cleared the way for FBI background checks, a snag holding up national screening of business applicants.

Rauner, a Republican businessman from Winnetka who took office Monday, now must grapple with launching a complicated but potentially revenue-generating industry.

During the campaign, Rauner had criticized the business selection process and suggested auctioning the licenses to the highest qualified bidders.

Brendan Shiller, a Chicago attorney representing multiple applicants, said Rauner’s involvement could be a blessing in disguise for his clients – or it could provoke litigation.

“Anyone in this business should want the guy who’s going to regulate it to pick the winners and losers,” Shiller

said. “He can play games, but he can’t completely change the process. He’ll get sued and he’ll lose.”

Hundreds of aspiring marijuana businesses are awaiting decisions after submitting applications in September, and potential patients had pushed hard for Quinn to complete the task before leaving office.

But just ahead of Rauner’s inauguration, the word came from Quinn spokesman Grant Klinzman: “It shouldn’t be rushed out last minute,” Klinzman said. “The agencies in charge of awarding these licenses have already completed most of the work in full accordance with the law, and the new administration will now administer the rest.”

The bill Quinn signed Monday allows state regulators to impose penalties such as fines for violating the medical marijuana law. Previously, they could only revoke licenses.

It also included important language to allow FBI national background checks, which hadn’t yet occurred, said Illinois State Police spokeswoman Monique Bond. She said it also “will provide licensing agencies a more complete picture of the applicants’ backgrounds.”

Quinn’s administration had been aiming to issue licenses to growers and dispensaries by the end of 2014. The state had been planning to award licenses to 21 medical marijuana cultivation centers.

Departing Quinn commutes sentences, names appointments Ex-Gov. Quinn grants 43 clemency petitions before exit

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – In his final moments as Illinois governor, Pat Quinn commuted the sentences of six people, signed a batch of bills and handed out some prestigious appointments, his administration announced Monday during the inauguration festivities of Gov. Bruce Rauner.

The commutations, in a list of 43 granted clemency petitions, included cutting or reducing prison time in six higher profile cases, some held up in the courts for years.

Quinn fully commuted the sentence of Tyrone Hood, who was convicted in the 1993 death of an Illinois Institute of Technology student, and Anthony Dansberry, who was imprisoned for the 1991 death of a 77-year-old woman.

Attorneys for Hood, a Menard Correctional Center inmate, maintain evidence pointed to someone else and said the commutation gave him a chance to clear his name.

Cook County prosecutors have re-examined the case.

“It gives an opportunity to live his life with his friends and family and loved ones,” said Gayle Horn of the University of Chicago’s Exoneration Project.

The flurry of eleventh-hour activity from Quinn, who didn’t attend Rauner’s inauguration, came minutes before Rauner, a Republican, took the oath.

The Democrat signed ridesharing regulations, said he wouldn’t issue medical marijuana licenses and made appointments minutes before Rauner took the oath.

The appointments included an $85,900-a-year Prisoner Review Board seat to Tumia Romero, an assistant labor director and former aide to U.S. Rep. Danny Davis. Sean Vinck – who earned $120,000 as Illinois’ chief information officer – received a $20,000 Clean Energy Commission Foundation Board post.

Human Services Secretary Michelle Saddler was appointed to the Teachers’ Retirement System board.

The last-minute appointments raised eyebrows and most of the dozens named Monday still need Senate confirmation.

Also, Rauner could remove them. Romero said she was qualified because of work on ex-offender programs and legislation. A number of Quinn staffers left the office Monday and were unavailable for comment.

“We’ll see if the new governor wants to keep them,” Senate President John Cullerton told reporters.

Quinn hinted at a busy final day, telling The Associated Press last week he was governor until midday Monday.

“You run as hard as you can the last 100 meters,” Quinn, a former cross country runner, said Friday. “I want to have a

good kick at the end.”

Quinn, ousted in November, spent his final weeks slogging through clemency petitions.

He acted on more than recent governors, after inheriting a backlog of thousands from predecessor, ex-Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

Overall, he considered nearly 5,000 and granted nearly 1,800 requests. He denied 3,133 including 119 Monday.

Rauner inherits roughly 1,850 cases.

Quinn granted four immediate commutations, two reduced sentences and an innocence-based pardon.

Jobs, economic package Area members encouraged to attend all events On the web among Rauner’s goals • SINGLES Continued from page A1

• RAUNER Continued from page A1 spending in Springfield.

“It’s clearly setting a tone,” Pritchard said. “I think what this is saying is: ‘Let’s put the brakes on; let’s take a breath.’ ” State Sen. Dave Syverson, a Rockford Republican who like Pritchard represents northern and eastern DeKalb County, agreed with Pritchard that the details would come during Rauner’s State of the State and budget addresses, adding any criticism about the lack of specifics was purely political.

Syverson applauded Rauner’s focus on the state’s bigger picture.

“I think there’s a new optimism that Illinois is really going to be in recovery,” Syverson said.

Rauner said he’s also ordering a review of all state contracts issued since Nov. 1, cutting his own salary to $1 and declining all benefits, including a pension.

He said he also plans to ask legislators during the coming weeks to work with him on a jobs and economic package aimed at putting people back to work.

In addition to the budget shortfall, Illinois has billions in unpaid bills and the worst credit rating of any state.

Its public pension system has an unfunded liability of $111 billion, and a new law aimed at eliminating the debt is on hold because of a challenge before the Illinois Supreme Court.

Rauner, a private equity investor from Winnetka, defeated Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn in November to become Illinois’ 42nd governor.

He’s the first Republican to lead the state since George Ryan left office in 2003.

He told a cheering crowd Monday that Illinois has an ethical crisis in addition to its financial problems, and said he’ll take action today to strengthen ethics in the executive branch.

“I will send a clear signal to everyone in our state, and to

NATION BRIEF Ryan out, Romney moves closer to 2016 campaign ATLANTA – The GOP’s crowded 2016 presidential field shifted sharply Monday as Paul Ryan, the party’s last vice presidential nominee, bowed out, while twotime presidential hopeful Mitt Romney marched toward his third campaign and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie stepped closer to his first.

The developments came as Republican officials from across the nation prepare to gather in San Diego this week to finalize an election calendar that will include the first debates of the campaign this summer. Romney is among four potential White House contenders expected to attend that meeting.

Ryan, a Wisconsin congressman and close Romney ally, thanked those who encouraged him to seek the presidency, but said he wanted to focus all of his attention on his new role as chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee.

those watching from outside our borders, that business as usual is over,” Rauner said. “It stops now.”

Other statewide officials also took the oath of office Monday.

They are Attorney General Lisa Madigan, Secretary of State Jesse White and Treasurer Michael Frerichs, all Democrats, and Comptroller Leslie Munger and Lt. Gov. Evelyn Sanguinetti, both Republicans.

Munger was appointed by Rauner to replace the late Judy Baar Topinka, who died shortly after winning another term as comptroller in November.

Munger will serve until 2016, when a special election will be held to fill the position.

By this month, membership had jumped to 82 people and keeps growing every day, she said.

“That’s what we are trying to do,” Miller said. “We are trying to get people together. You meet people in a bar, you don’t get that kind of relationship.

It’s all about drinking most of the time.

“You meet people at church, and it’s about church. We were trying to find a happy medium.”

In some cases, regular meetups result in new friendships.

Hobbs said she was able to make new friends since she joined the group in November.

Miller said the group has about 25 active members who come to most of the events. But with time, she said she hopes to see a larger turnout.

“The bigger we get, the more you will find somebody who has the same likes and interests that you do,” Miller said. “... The more people we get, the more diverse we can be.”

One of the group’s members, magician Jonathan Kamm, a lifelong Sycamore resident, said he joined the group to meet new people.

“I’m somebody who is always busy doing stuff, I’m always entertained,” he said.

“This is nice to meet people and talk and share and stuff like that.”

CHAMBER VIEW Rose Treml The Sycamore Chamber of Commerce announced earlier this month that Tim Suter of DeKalb will receive our 2014 Clifford Danielson Outstanding Citizen Award.

We are very lucky to have people like Tim in our community. He is very passionate about helping others and enhancing the lives of those around him.

I have an enormous amount of respect and admiration for Tim and his quiet leadership style.

He gives his time, talent and resources to multiple organizations in our community to improve quality of life in Sycamore.

Tim Suter is president and CEO of the third-generation Sycamore-based food processor, Suter Company Inc. The Suter Company is actively engaged in our community and provides its support to about 50 nonprofit agencies throughout the county.

Tim currently serves on the Board of Directors as president of the DeKalb County Community Foundation, and he is a member of the Board of Directors for the National Bank & Trust Co. He is co-founder and president of Make A Difference DKC, a nonprofit organization that hosts a MobilePack event for Feed My Starving Children each November.

The group packed more than one million meals in 2014 alone, and it has brought more than 14,000 DeKalb County volunteers together over the past five years.

I know of no other event in our area that brings so many community volunteers of all ages together for such a great cause.

Tim inspires all of us to be involved with our community.

Tim previously served on the board of directors for the Sycamore Chamber of Commerce, Family Service Agency Foundation, KishHealth Progress and the Payit-Forward House.

He also speaks regularly to organizations around DeKalb County – primarily drawing on lessons from the leadership training and development program he founded called “A Leader’s Voyage.”

The Outstanding Citizen Award was created in honor of Clifford Danielson, who was the president and chairman of The National Bank and Trust Co. and a very active leader in the business community for nearly 70 years. He devoted his time and energy to the Sycamore community.

This award recognizes individuals who strive toward the highest levels of professional accomplishment, excel in their chosen field and work toward enhancing the quality of life in Sycamore.

Recent recipients include Bob Boey, Dick and Beth Willey, Ken Mundy, Bruce Griffith, Tom and Joan Fenstermaker, Bill Nicklas, Russ and Bernie Schelkopf, John Boies, Yvonne Johnson, Robert Hammon, Dean Copple, Michael Cullen, Dr. John Ovitz, Joe Bussone and Peter Johnson.

Suter will be honored and acknowledged at the Sycamore Chamber’s 100th Annual Meeting, to be held Jan. 29.

The $30 lunch meeting will be from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at St. Mary’s Memorial Hall.

All are invited to attend by calling the chamber at 815-895-3456 to make your reservation.

Reservations must be made by Jan. 21.

Job opportunities abound for CAD students

By DARIA SOKOLOVA dsokolova@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Ideal Industries intern Zach Zielinski starts his morning by drafting mechanical designs in computer software or checking on other projects in the assembly room.

As demand for tech jobs in the area continues to rise, local companies often hire students with computer-aided design skills before they graduate from college, said Matthew Feuerborn, associate dean of Kishwaukee College Technologies Division.

“There’s been an unprecedented number of job opportunities for recent graduates and even current students in the CAD field,” Feuerborn said.

A recent Kishwaukee graduate, Zielinski works on mechanical designs for hand tools for various companies around the globe as part of his internship at Sycamore-based Ideal Industries, which develops tools and products for data communications, aerospace, electrical, wire processing, automotive and construction.

“Learning was my biggest challenge. I feel like I’m succeeding with that now,” Zielinski said.

With CAD serving archi-

tecture and manufacturing industries, Feuerborn said there is a growing number of jobs in the industry within a 50-mile range from DeKalb.

“It’s kind of a unique skill set that people have to have,” he said. “They have to be able to visualize things in three dimensions and then actually put in place, so they have to visualize what the object happens to be. They have to picture it in their head in order for them to be able to draw.”

Phillip Altice, who graduated from Kishwaukee College with an associate’s degree in mechanical engineering in 2009, said he was able to get a job at Ingersoll Cutting Tools Co. in Rockford before he completed his education.

“There’s a huge demand,” said Altice, who now works at Taurus Tool and Engineering Inc. in Batavia. “I would have recruiters calling me at least once a week.”

Feuerborn said grads from the Kishwaukee College Technologies Division find work all over northern Illinois – not just in DeKalb and Sycamore, but also in Rochelle, Beloit, Wisconsin, and the Chicago suburbs.

“One of the challenges that we face is actually seeing our students complete the asso-

“To actually go and draw something out, design and then actually see it be made, and then actually see things that you made out in the area is a really cool and exciting experience.”

Rauner’s speech blunt but necessary

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Comparing Kishwaukee with its peer institutions in the state (defined by the ICCB as those To the Editor: community colleges with similar In recent media coverage, President Tom Choice is reported enrollments, geographic location and finances) demonstrates even as pointing out that Kishwaukee College’s tax base and enrollment more clearly that Kishwaukee differ from those of other commu- devotes more resources to compensating administrators and less nity colleges in our region.

His comments presumably serve to compensating faculty than its to justify why Kishwaukee faculty counterparts.

Kishwaukee administrators led salaries are lower than salaries at these other institutions. Following their peer group in median salary that logic, administrator salaries last fiscal year by a significant margin, exceeding the secshould be correspondingly low. ond-highest median salary by However, figures from the Illinois Community College Board over 12 percent and the lowest tell a different story. For example, peer median salary by a whopping the median salary last fiscal year $24,300.

By contrast, Kishwaukee faculty for Kishwaukee administrators ranked just fourth of six among exceeded that of Rock Valley peer institutions, their median College administrators by over salary falling over $16,000 below $13,700, while the median Kishthe highest of the group and exwaukee faculty salary fell over ceeding the lowest by just 12.25 $5,800 short of the median for their Rock Valley counterparts. percent.

Pay Kish College faculty as well as administrators

Other actions by the college further exacerbate this inequality in distribution of resources. For example, certain key Kishwaukee administrators receive $800 or $1,000 a credit hour for teaching classes, well above the $704 ICCB-reported statewide average and astonishingly higher than the $550-$600 rate paid to many longtime Kishwaukee adjunct faculty.

Likewise, the recent designation of certain top administrators as Executive Level Administrators, providing them increased benefits including nearly four times the life insurance coverage of other college employees, shows the focus of their concern, as does the 269 percent increase in average monthly expenditures for legal fees for 2014 since the college engaged counsel in March to participate in negotiations with faculty from the very outset.

These discrepancies should be alarming to everyone. Kishwaukee College’s Board of Trustees is lining the pockets of top administrators not only at the expense of faculty, but more importantly at the expense of taxpayers.

Can Jeb Bush build a working platform?

There are likely to be many surprises in a race for the Republican presidential nomination that has something like 20 plausible potential candidates. The first of those surprises came in the last hours before New Year’s when Jeb Bush announced he was setting up an exploratory committee to consider running for president.

The website of Bush’s new PAC, Right to Rise, shows that he has been paying attention to the ongoing policy dialogue among conservative thinkers.

“The central moral promise of American life,” it declares, is the right “to move up the income ladder based on merit, hard work and earned success.”

That’s in line with conservatives and Republicans who have been noticing that incomes below the top level have not been rising much, not only during the Obama presidency but also the presidency of George W. Bush.

“The income gap is real,” the PAC’s website declares, but “only conservative principles can solve it by removing the barriers to upward mobility.”

Bush’s website does not get much more specific than that, with slides calling for education, entrepreneurship, free enterprise and “growth for everyone.” But that suggests that Bush, assuming he runs, is preparing to follow up with a list of policy initiatives to emphasize in his campaign and, if that’s successful, beyond.

Looking back on my experience as a political consultant, I have argued that successful candidates for executive posts – mayor, governor, president – need to emphasize a short list of three or four policies that will work for them in the primaries, work in the general election and, most important, work in governing.

But few candidates manage to do that

As inauguration speeches go, Bruce Rauner’s was a bit of a downer.

After being sworn in as Illinois’ 42nd governor, Rauner bluntly detailed the state’s many problems.

State government has suffered from decades of corruption and cronyism.

It taxes too much.

It spends too much.

Its policies are driving business – and jobs – to other states.

Sacrifices will be needed by all Illinoisans to right the state’s dire fiscal situation.

That might not be a message people want to hear from their new leader. But Rauner needed to say it, and Illinoisans need to hear it.

The state’s five public pension systems are For the record underfunded by $110 billion and growing. It’s currently Decades of fiscal misfacing a $2 billion budget management, unfortunatedeficit in fiscal 2015. Of ly, can’t be fixed with the course sacrifices will be snap of the fingers or the necessary. election of a new governor.

Rauner, however, was mostly short on what specific sacrifices he will propose.

In his first action as governor, Rauner said he asked every state agency to freeze nonessential spending. What that will mean in terms of state services, we don’t know yet. But we should expect to see significant cutbacks. Given the state’s fiscal situation, there need to be.

Rauner didn’t say Monday whether he would seek any form of tax increases – whether it be a temporary increase in the state’s income tax, which was scaled back Jan. 1; or whether he’d seek new taxes on certain services, or any other hikes.

He struck the right tone with this comment – “Taxpayers’ money belongs to them, not the government.

We have a moral obligation to minimize how much we take and to ensure what we do take is spent efficiently and effectively,” – but we expect some sort of tax increase proposal from him.

Decades of fiscal mismanagement, unfortunately, can’t be fixed with the snap of the fingers or the election of a new governor.

It’s going to take a lot of work and some short-term pain. But it’s necessary.

“Business as usual is over,” Rauner said. “It stops now.”

We’ve heard that before. We just hope this governor is the one to deliver.

lican candidate needs to be “much more willing to, ‘lose the primary to win the general’ without violating your principles” – adding that no one has done that lately and that it’s not easy. That suggests he’s hoping to follow my formula. because it’s harder to do than to say.

But neither he nor any of the other Republicans are tugged to the right and potential Republican candidates has Democrats to the left in primaries, after done so yet.

At this point, Keystone XL has more value as a political issue than as a pipeline. That’s why President Barack Obama should just approve it already and put this absurdly politicized issue to rest.

True, the president has said he will veto the current congressional effort to force approval of the pipeline, but his objections seem more bureaucratic than substantive. Last week, the highest court in Nebraska, through which Keystone will run, quietly opened the door to allow him to approve the project through the proper channels.

To reiterate: The pipeline from Alberta, Canada, to the U.S. Gulf Coast is neither a threat to Earth’s climate (as its opponents claim) nor a boon to employment (as its proponents argue). The construction is expected to create only about 10,000 temporary jobs; only a few dozen permanent employees will be needed to run the thing once it’s built. And the pipeline’s actual impact on the environment is minimal.

What’s more, with the price of oil below $50 a barrel, the economic rationale for the pipeline is shaky. Nonetheless, the wisdom of allowing TransCanada Corp. to build the pipeline remains as sound as it ever was: In the long term, it can make the United States more energy-secure.

As an immediate side benefit, U.S. permission could also be used to help coax Canada into a climate agreement with the U.S. The Keystone XL has been a hot-button issue for some environmentalists, in part because extracting oil from tar sands creates more pollution than drilling for oil. But the pipeline would be a net gain for the climate if it could help prod Canada to cut carbon emissions.

This shouldn’t be so difficult. Canada has always matched U.S. pledges on greenhouse-gas targets – even if, so far, it has not done as much as the U.S. to make good on them. Both countries vowed to lower carbon emissions 17 percent from their 2005 levels by 2020. In a recent climate deal with China, Obama upped the ante to 26 to 28 percent by 2025. Canada should follow suit.

Finally, there is the reality that, even if the Keystone pipeline is never built, Canada’s oil won’t stay in the ground.

Even as oil prices have dropped over the past several months, extraction from the Alberta oil sands has continued. And even if $50-a-barrel oil causes some producers to slow production, oil prices will inevitably rise again, making oil-sands extraction economically viable.

This crude will get to market via rail and ship – as it has been – and possibly via pipelines that are in the works to Canada’s east and west coasts.

Keystone will not create many jobs for the U.S., and its delivery of 830,000 barrels a day won’t keep the price of gasoline low. But the U.S. still needs to import oil – and better to get it from Canada than, say, Venezuela.

Obama has no good reason not to say yes.

NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP: OHIO ST. 42, OREGON 20

Buckeyes crowned champs

By RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press AP file photo

Fox out after 4 AFC West titles, 4 playoff nosedives ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – John Elway is looking for a new coach after agreeing to part ways with John Fox (above) after Denver’s latest playoff meltdown.

Fox won the AFC West all four of his years in Denver, but each of those seasons ended in ugly fashion in the playoffs, culminating with Sunday’s 24-13 upset by Indianapolis.

Fox might already have something in the works with another franchise – he didn’t shoot down a pregame report Sunday night that he could be available if the Broncos lost.

Neither Fox nor Elway would say what was discussed Monday when they met other than it was time to split up.

“It became clear that it was best for both the Denver Broncos and Coach Fox to move on and make this change,” Elway said in a statement.

So, Fox is out after going 49-22 in Denver, including the playoffs, after a 78-74 record in nine years with the Carolina Panthers, counting the postseason.

ARLINGTON, Texas – Ohio State can add the newest version of the national championship trophy to a case that already has a bunch of the old ones.

The Buckeyes’ third-stringer matched Oregon’s Heisman winner as Cardale Jones led Ohio State past Marcus Mariota and the Ducks, 42-20 ,in the first College Football Playoff national championship game Monday night at the $1.2 billion home of the AP photo Dallas Cowboys.

mance against the Ducks (13-2).

“The chase is complete,” Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said. “It’s done.

It’s over. They accepted their final mission, their final assignment and their final directive, and they did it.

That was our whole mantra this last couple of weeks. A job well done, and we’re very grateful.”

Ohio State began the first major college football playoff as the fourth and final seed, and as a team that faced questions about whether it belonged at all. It was a team that never would have had a chance to win a title under the old postseason system.

No question about it now: Ohio State is the truest champion big-time football has ever crowned, showered by golden confetti as its band played “Hang on Sloopy” when the clock hit 0:00.

Meyer’s Buckeyes overcame two injured Heisman contenders and one awful early season loss at home to Virginia Tech to win their first national title since 2002. Back then the Bowl Championship Series decided No. 1 at the end of the season – usually.

Before that, it was up to The Associated Press and coaches’ polls to sort out which team was best, with little help from the bowls. The Buckeyes have three of those championships, too.

And Meyer now has three, adding this one for his home state team to the two he won for Florida. It’s taken just three seasons in Columbus for Meyer to put the Buckeyes – and the Big Ten – back on top, with a team that looks built to last.

Indian Creek junior Josie Diehl was averaging 16 points and 12 rebounds a game heading into Monday night’s game against Newark.

Indian Creek junior Josie Diehl does it all for Timberwolves

By EDDIE CARIFIO ecarifio@shawmedia.com

P

aul Muchmore keeps adding to Josie Diehl’s list of responsibilities.

The Indian Creek junior center keeps rising to the challenge of her coach.

During the past couple of years, Muchmore said he’s been working on rounding out the 6-foot Diehl, who came into the program as a freshman rebounding machine.

“She’s always been able to rebound and score in the post since she was a freshman,” Muchmore said. “When she was a freshman,

More online For all your prep sports coverage – stories, features, scores, photos, videos and more – log on to Daily-Chronicle. com/dcpreps. that was her job – to rebound and score if she had the opportunity.”

So as a sophomore, he expanded her role to include occasional work at point guard, keying an uptempo offense in certain spots.

“Last year her role became big-

ger,” Muchmore said. “We relied on her more to score and we started having her bring the ball up when she gets a defensive rebound to lead the fastbreak.”

This year, he’s worked with her on adding a 3-point shot.

“We rely on her to do a lot of things,” Muchmore said. “And with her doing those things, it opens up everyone else. That’s one thing she gets to understand and that’s one thing the other kids have to understand, too.”

She may be skeptical of the duties at time, but Diehl said she always goes along with what her coach asks.

“He tells me to do it for a reason, I guess,” Diehl said. “I just listen to him and see some good things out of it. At first I didn’t, I don’t know, think it would be a good idea. But now I accept it and do whatever.”

Muchmore said that’s one of her biggest strengths.

“She’s hesitant, but she’ll work at it and take the constructive criticism to make herself better,” Muchmore said. “That’s one of the things I saw, even as a freshman, and tried to instill confidence in her. ... But she’s coachable. She’ll listen and try to do what we tell her to do.”

BEARS

Fox is not the answer for Bears When Ernie Accorsi took over as general manager of the New York Giants in 1998, John Fox was in his second season as the team’s defensive coordinator. Accorsi’s Giants went to Super Bowl XXXV after the 2000 season with Fox before losing to the Baltimore Ravens.

It is safe to assume there will be a conversation between new Bears GM Ryan Pace and Accorsi about Fox for the Bears’ vacant head coaching position.

Whether he is a viable candidate or not begs a number of different questions.

Why was Fox let go in Denver?

With the Broncos’ job now open, if it doesn’t go to their own Adam Gase or Jack Del Rio, who are

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush widely reported to be top candidates for several other open head coaching spots, why not?

Unlike the Bears, who are badly in need of a complete overhaul, the Broncos were the only team in the NFL this season to rank in the top five in total offense and total defense.

If Fox couldn’t win a playoff game with Peyton Manning, Demaryius Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, Wes Welker, Julius Thomas, Ryan Clady,

DeMarcus Ware, Von Miller, Aqib Talib and so much more, what makes him the right guy for the Bears?

The answer to why Fox is out in Denver is simple. The Broncos broke the bank this year to give him everything he needed to win a title, they appeared to be the most complete and star-laden team in the NFL from Day 1 of the season and yet, after being embarrassed in the Super Bowl last year, they couldn’t win a playoff game at home against a flawed Indianapolis club.

Obviously, John Elway decided Fox’s very best just isn’t good enough to win championships.

BLACKHAWKS

NFL PLAYOFFS

Q’s intensity good for a lift, or a laugh Coach has colorful vocabulary behind the Hawks’ bench

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com The first time Patrick Kane heard Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville string together obscenities during a game, weaving a colorful quilt of curses behind the bench, it was jarring.

Unnerving, even.

Kane was only 19, after all, and had known only the more mellow Denis Savard as an NHL coach. Quenneville was something else entirely and had to be heard to be believed.

“It was definitely different,” Kane said. “Catches you offguard at first.”

Bleep this and bleep that.

Bleep off and bleep him. Bleep you, you bleeping bleeper. The best of the bunch?

“Something I can’t say here,” Kane said with a laugh.

Indeed, this is the story of how the Hawks learned to stop worrying and love the F-bomb.

“We’re used to it now,” Kane said. “To the point where if he says something, you nudge the guy next to you on the bench and laugh about the thing he says. He’s got some good comments back there. We enjoy it. Honestly, it gets us into the game, too.”

The cameras embedded with the Hawks for Epix’s “Road to the NHL Winter Classic” series

AP file photo

Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville protests a penalty call during a game against the St. Louis Blues on Jan. 2, 2010, in St. Louis. showed a side of Quenneville the public rarely sees. Or, perhaps more accurately, rarely hears. Everyone has seen him flailing his arms and stomping up and down the bench during games, his tie flapping in the breeze. But few have heard the, uh, colorful commentary Quenneville provides during games.

A brief and very censored sampling of some of Quenneville’s gems from the documentary: • After the disputed hooking call on Jonathan Toews that eventually cost the Hawks the Winter Classic: “Oh, bleep off, you bleeping bleep. What a bleeping idiot.”

• After an earlier penalty against the Hawks: “Holy bleep, Batman!”

• During a particularly in-

tense game against the Minnesota Wild: “I’m going to go bleeping mental in this bleeping game tonight.”

• After a failed play by Bryan Bickell: “Bleep off, Pickles.”

Then there are the jubilant shouts of “Peanut butter!” when a top-shelf goal is scored and the ferocious fist-bumps he gives to each player entering the dressing room after a victory.

“Nobody likes winning more than me!” he has been heard shouting on multiple occasions.

“He gets pretty fired up when he’s on the bench,” Marian Hossa said. “When there’s something he doesn’t like, he lets the referees or the players know. Off the ice, he’s pretty calm.”

And that’s the thing: When Quenneville grips both sides

BULLS NOTES

Thibs can’t stop singing the praises of Butler

Reed rallies to win Kapalua in a playoff KAPALUA, Hawaii – Patrick Reed never thought he had a serious chance to win at Kapalua until he stood over an 18-foot birdie putt in a playoff Monday.

Like so many other times in his young career, he didn’t waste it.

Four shots behind with four holes to play, Reed made two birdies, holed an 80-yard shot for eagle and got just enough help from Jimmy Walker to win the Hyundai Tournament of Champions for his fourth career PGA Tour victory.

Panthers’ Hardy’s appeal set for Feb. 9 CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The Mecklenburg County District Attorney’s office has announced that Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy’s jury trial has been set for Feb. 9 in Superior Court.

Hardy is appealing his conviction on two counts of domestic violence in July.

The case is being prosecuted by the DA’s domestic violence team.

Hardy was a Pro Bowl player for the Panthers in 2013 after tying a team record with 15 sacks. He was signed as Carolina’s franchise player and made $13.1 million despite playing in only one game in 2014.

Kurt Busch again denies alleged assault DOVER, Del. – NASCAR driver Kurt Busch has resumed testifying in a hearing regarding his ex-girlfriend’s request for a no-contact order.

As he did last month, Busch testified Monday in a Dover, Delaware, courtroom that he did not assault Patricia Driscoll inside his motorhome at Dover International Speedway in September.

Driscoll said Busch assaulted her after she drove from her Maryland home to Dover to check on him after he sent her several disturbing texts.

– Wire reports

of the lectern after a game and starts mumbling about great performances or wasted opportunities, his voice low and gravelly with little emotion and less volume, he sounds exactly like a guy with 2,352 games under his belt as a player and a coach.

Experienced. Poised. Almost blasé.

But that’s only because he just spent the past two-plus hours ranting and raving like a first-timer and basically has nothing left in the tank.

“Every game’s different,” Quenneville said with a shrug.

“You play to win that game, and that’s what it’s all about.”

Just about every player on the bench has been told by Quenneville to “bleep off” at some point or another during a game, but they learn to shrug it off. If anything, players find Quenneville’s over-the-top intensity during games, even after 36 years in the NHL, inspiring. If the coach isn’t getting complacent, what excuse do the players have?

“It shows that he cares, and it’s pretty special to bring that attitude night in, night out,” Kane said. “It’s something we can all learn from.”

At the very least, it’s always good for a laugh.

“Oh, sometimes you get a good chuckle,” Bickell said.

“He knows that we can hear him, and I think he knows we’re laughing. But it’s good to see him so caught up in it. It inspires me and the team. Like he says, nobody likes winning more than him.”

Orlando Magic guard Elfrid Payton bolts past Bulls guard Derrick Rose during the first half of Monday night’s game at the United Center. The Bulls lost, 121-114.

MAGIC 121, BULLS 114

Defense struggles Bulls give up a season-high 63 points in 1st half

By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Derrick Rose returned Monday night, but the Bulls’ defense left the building.

Behind a season-high 63-point first half, the Orlando Magic continued to raise questions about the direction the Bulls are heading in defensively, beating them 121114 at the United Center.

But it’s not just the defensive lapses.

The Bulls seem to coast against competition they perceive as beatable, especially in the first quarter.

The 14-27 Magic fit that description perfectly, coming in on a six-game losing streak, and the Bulls (26-13) accommodated them.

“The way we’re playing is bothersome and concerning,’’ coach Tom Thibodeau said.

“You get into things together, and we have to get out of things together. The challenge is to get ourselves right and to get ready. It’s an unforgiving league. The games keep coming. We know what we have to do to straighten it out. We have to do it together.’’

It was the third loss in the past four games for the Bulls, and, coincidentally, the one game they did win – Saturday against the Bucks – came with Rose out with a sore left knee.

This loss can’t be pinned on Rose, how-

ever, who came out in attack mode and had six points on 3-for-5 shooting in the first quarter. Rose did have a bad turnover late, but he finished with 18 points, shot 8 for 15 from the field and had seven assists.

There were questions about Rose even playing heading into the game, but he downplayed the speculation, saying it’s soreness he has experienced before and likely will experience again.

“You think about it, it’s not out of the norm,” Rose said. “Having two knee surgeries, it’s just some type of soreness that came up in the Washington game (Friday), and it held me back a game.

“If it was something that was lingering or I felt it the entire time along that stretch, that 15-game, 20-game stretch, I would have been very worried about it, but I didn’t feel it until after the Washington game.

“I know exactly what it is. I know how to warm up my body. I think I’ve become a great pro. And having two knee injuries, you learn how to take care of your body. I think I’m doing a great job with it.”

Of the Bulls’ 13 losses, seven are against teams below .500, and five have come at the United Center.

Pau Gasol again carried the team with 28 points, but Joakim Noah only had six points. Taj Gibson came off the bench for nine points.

“Every aspect,” Thibodeau said of the Bulls’ defensive problems. “We’ve got to decide what we’ve got to be.

“If we’re going to just try to outscore people, we’re not going anywhere.

“You can’t talk about it. You have to do it. The one thing I know is, when you practice well, you play well. Hey, we’re not sharp right now. Win one, lose one. ... It’s gotta be all of us. We’ve got to decide what we want to be.”

CHICAGO – There are two constants with coach Tom Thibodeau these days.

He’s “concerned about everything” – as he reminds the media often – and he can’t find enough superlatives to describe guard Jimmy Butler.

Despite hitting his first speed bump the previous two games (a combined 4 for 21 from the field against the Wizards and Bucks), Butler still figured out how to make an impact, as evidenced by his 10 assists Saturday against the Bucks.

On Monday, Thibodeau spoke about the Bulls’ version of a “Big Three,” which includes Butler.

“We have three primary scorers, Jimmy, Pau (Gasol) and Derrick (Rose),” Thibodeau said when asked about Butler seeing more double teams. “When a second defender comes, the responsibility of a primary scorer is to make the right play. Jimmy has been evolving with that. He’s very unselfish. He’s done it all year, and it’s probably the one aspect of his game that has been overlooked by many. He’s a terrific playmaker.

“He does a lot that just helps you win.”

So how much attention has Butler been drawing from the opposition? Gasol said that was a big reason he scored a career-high 46 points in the victory against the Bucks. “[Butler is] on everyone’s radar,” Thibodeau said. “When you go into a game, you look at a team’s strengths, and you say, ‘This is how we’ll guard Jimmy and Derrick and Pau.’ The responsibility is on those guys to make the right play. He’s starting to get used to different defenses. He knows, ‘OK, if they switch on the pick-and-roll, this is what we’re looking for. If they double-team on the pick-and-roll, this is what we’re looking for. If they double-team the post, this is what we’re looking for. If they overload on isolation, this is what we’re looking for.’ He’s getting comfortable.”

Impressing Rose: It isn’t often that Rose has seen a Bull, other than himself, score 40 or more in a game, so although he missed the Gasol show against the Bucks with the sore knee, he still appreciated it.

“Pau’s been great, man,” Rose said. “He’s just a great teammate, a great dude. Happy that he’s on this team, makes the game easy.

We just have to get used to playing with him a little bit more and make the game easy for him. They found a way to win the game without me, and they played great.”

Moving closer: The MRI done on forward Mike Dunleavy’s jammed right ankle showed no significant changes, so as long as there are no setbacks, the hope is to have him back in a few days, Thibodeau said.

Dunleavy has missed six games, including the back-to-back losses to the Jazz and Wizards last week.

BEARS ANALYSIS / BY ARTHUR ARKUSH

IHSA leader Austin could be the next Tomlin to retire in ’16

By JOEY KAUFMAN jkaufman@shawmedia.com The IHSA will be under new leadership come January 2016.

Longtime executive director Marty Hickman announced Monday he will retire effective Jan. 15, 2016, after heading the association since 2001.

“I have known for some time that the 201516 school year would be my Marty final year,” Hickman Hickman said in a statement. “It was just a matter of figuring out the timing. Given the experience and continuity of our current staff and Board of Directors, I felt comfortable stepping aside a year from now.”

The announcement came after Monday’s IHSA board meeting. Hickman first joined the IHSA in 1991 as an assistant executive director before

being promoted to associate executive director in 1999. He previously had served as the principal at Monmouth High School, Bluffs Jr.-Sr. High School and Westmer Secondary School.

“Growing up, I didn’t know enough about the IHSA to dream about working here, but for the last 24 years I have lived the most challenging and rewarding job imaginable,” Hickman said. “I will be forever grateful to the individuals that gave me this opportunity, including the teachers and coaches at New Berlin High School who taught me lessons that helped me well beyond my days in school. As I reflect on my tenure here and look forward to my final year, I can say with absolute certainty that my life has been enriched by working for the Illinois High School Association.”

The IHSA said the timeline for naming Hickman’s replacement would be announced at an upcoming board meeting.

Indian Creek’s Josie Diehl grabs a rebound during the second half Dec. 22 at Indian Creek High School in Shabbona. Diehl had 21 points in Indian Creek’s 59-53 win.

Diehl averaging 16 points a game for Timberwolves • DIEHL Continued from page B1 Diehl was averaging 16 points and 12 rebounds a game heading into Monday night’s game against Newark, the No. 1 seed in next week’s Little Ten Conference tournament.

The Timberwolves (11-6, 5-0 before Monday’s Newark game) will be the No. 2 seed and host the tournament.

The Timberwolves will open the tourney Monday against Paw Paw, then will face either Serena or Hinckley-Big Rock in the semifinals Thursday. The title game will be at 8 p.m. Friday.

Diehl said the tournament will help prepare the team for the postseason. Last year, the Timberwolves reached a sectional final.

“We’ve got a strong team and I think in the playoffs,

with our potential, we’ll be hard to beat,” Diehl said. “I think we’re quick and for the most part we know what we’re doing. I think we have a lot of potential and can go really far if we play to the best of our abilities.”

Muchmore said Diehl has taken two big leaps over the past two seasons, and expects another leap next year.

“I think she has another big leap with her ability,” Muchmore said. “I think she’ll be more confident in her ball-handling and her outside shooting. We’re just getting her to shoot outside 3s because everyone is packing it in on her. We’re just trying to get the confidence in her. I know she can make them, but we’re just trying to get her to make them. And her ball-handling, when she gets more confident in that, she’ll be able to do even more.”

From coordinator to head coach after only 1 year?

Is Teryl Austin the next Mike Tomlin?

That’s the question Bears general manager Ryan Pace must try to answer as Austin, the current Lions defensive coordinator, today will become the fourth known candidate to interview for the club’s head coaching vacancy.

The comparison between Tomlin and Austin is apt because Tomlin spent only one season as a defensive coordinator, in 2006 with the Vikings, before becoming the Super Bowl-winning head coach of the Steelers. Before his year in Minnesota, Tomlin was Tampa’s defensive backs coach from 2001 to 2005, earning a Super Bowl ring under Jon Gruden.

Preceding his masterful, but singular NFL coordinating job overseeing the NFL’s No. 2 scoring defense in Detroit in 2014, Austin coached the Ravens defensive backs from 2011 to 2013, where he won a Super Bowl under John Harbaugh.

Austin held the same position in Seattle from 2003 to 2006, and in Arizona from 2007 to 2009.

Austin is 49 years old, while Tomlin was only 35 when he landed in Pittsburgh.

As you can see, the Bears’ next interviewee actually has a fuller résumé than Tomlin did.

I’m not suggesting Austin is destined for coaching stardom like Tomlin; instead, I’m pointing you in the direction of the most recent success story under similar circumstances.

The main reason Austin is considered a fast riser in league circles and already reportedly has interviewed with Buffalo, Atlanta and San Francisco is because of his immediate success in Motown. Did he inherit a lot of defensive talent – far more

Duh. The Lions have All-Pro players at all three levels.

But what caught the eye of all of these organizations, in addition to his preparedness, is the way Austin adapted his scheme to the personnel he inherited. Coming from a Ravens defense known for its multiplicity and aggressiveness, Austin wisely went in the opposite direction. It was because of the presence of one of the game’s most destructive three-techniques (Ndamukong Suh) and an ascending outside linebacker with great speed and instincts (DeAndre Levy), two staples

Continued from page B1 Elliott, a sophomore, ran for 246 yards and four touchdowns on 36 carries. In the past three games against Wisconsin, Alabama and Oregon, Elliott had 696 yards rushing.

Jones, who took over three games ago for the injured J.T. Barrett (who had taken over at the start of the season for the injured Braxton Miller), passed for 242 yards and a

touchdown and ran for score.

The 250-pound third-year sophomore proved he could keep up with Mariota – at least on this night.

Mariota passed for 333 yards and two touchdowns, but the Ducks’ warp-speed spread offense missed too many red-zone opportunities and couldn’t unleash its running game against linebacker Darron Lee and an Ohio State front seven stacked with future NFL draft picks.

• ARKUSH Continued from page B1 Is Elway letting Fox go to make sure either Del Rio or Gase doesn’t get away and to have one of them take over?

When Fox became ill last season, his club was 7-1 and Del Rio stepped in as the interim head coach, going 3-1, including two wins over the Kansas City Chiefs after the Chiefs had started the season 9-0.

Gase is one of the hottest young offensive coordinators in the league and already has interviewed for several open jobs, including the Bears.

If Elway, who knows Del

Rio and Gase better than anyone else seeking a head coach, passes on both of them, it would seem to significantly damage their résumés, wouldn’t it?

Early reports are that Elway intends to jump into the Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn derby, another candidate the Bears have interviewed.

Fox had a checkered nineyear run as the head coach of the Panthers, guiding them to Super Bowl XXXVIII in his second season in 2003 but making only two more playoff appearances and finishing 73-71 overall.

Much like Rex Ryan, who

was just hired in Buffalo weeks after being canned by the Jets, Fox immediately was hired in Denver and somehow guided them to an 8-8 AFC West title and a wildcard upset of the Steelers in overtime behind Tim Tebow.

Then Elway started spending, Peyton Manning arrived, and the Broncos went 13-3, 13-3 and 12-4 in successive seasons, but one-and-done playoffs sandwiched around the Super Bowl loss to Seattle were Fox’s undoing.

Is Fox a candidate for the Bears job? He just became available, and I don’t have a hotline to Pace, but I have to say most likely not.

If you want an experienced leader, how is Fox a better choice than Mike Shanahan, who has three Super Bowl rings, including two as the boss in Denver?

Additionally, the Bears have interviewed or requested interviews with four candidates to date, and none has previous head coaching experience.

The bottom line is Accorsi knows a lot of good coaches who aren’t going to be the next head coach of the Bears.

in the scheme he inherited.

Austin recognized Detroit had the strength up front to get pressure with its front four, opting to blitz judiciously. Similarly, he was smart enough to know the Lions could stuff the run without selling out to do so, giving his secondary added freedom and flexibility.

A former secondary coach, Austin’s greatest work might have been with the DBs in Detroit. It wasn’t that long ago the Lions had one of the league’s worst pass defenses – they ranked 23rd in this category only one season ago.

Yet, upon Austin’s arrival,

the Lions ascended to the NFL’s second-ranked pass defense in 2014. After a lackluster rookie season, Darius Slay became a solid cover corner. Glover Quin went from a quality starter to Pro Bowl player and the NFL’s interceptions leader.

The list goes on.

Veterans James Ihedigbo and Rashean Mathis found the fountain of youth with Austin.

Detroit survived the loss of its top two nickel corners, starting middle linebacker and nose guard to season-ending injuries. But he plugged in guys, altering roles and using a variety of coverages with the unit barely skipping a beat.

So it’s safe to say the guy knows defense.

But is he ready to oversee an entire program? Has he built the necessary relationships to construct a winning coaching staff? Do players respond to his methods?

The folks in Detroit seem to think so.

I can tell you his players love playing for him. They appreciate his ability to devise varied game plans.

He’s lauded in league circles for his planning and attention to detail. I’m told he has a strong relationship with the front office – which Pace already has identified as being critical.

Some Bears fans will clamor for someone with previous head coaching experience – particularly given the still-green Pace. I can’t argue given the organization’s track record for almost exclusively tabbing first-time guys.

But just going off what I hear, Austin is ready. Similar opinions exist with Todd Bowles and Dan Quinn, both of whom already have met with the Bears.

Today, it’s Austin’s turn to make his case, and everything you’ve just read likely will be included.

Will it be enough?

4 ADVICE & PUZZLES • Tuesday, January 13, 2015 • Section B • Daily Chronicle / Daily-Chronicle.com

Seek low-cost options for professional counseling Dear Abby: In many advice columns it often is suggested to “seek professional help,” such as a psychologist or psychiatrist. This is a practical solution, but most often quite expensive, to the point of being prohibitive.

Where else can one turn to find assistance that will be practical, ongoing and cost-effective rather than something that immediately throws up a roadblock to wellness? – Detoured By Finances Dear Detoured: Some of these suggestions might be helpful: (1) Contact a university medical school if there is one in your community, and ask

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips to speak to the Department of Psychiatry. Ask if it has an outpatient clinic. If it does, inquire there. If not, ask if someone on the staff deals with problems like the ones you’re experiencing.

(2) If you live in a town with a college, find out if it has a graduate school. If so, does the graduate school have a psychology program and a clinic that charges on a sliding financial scale? If there is no clinic, ask if someone on

the staff of the psychology department sees people privately and what’s the person’s phone number. Then contact that person.

(3) People can get referrals from mental health organizations. The largest credentialed ones are the American Psychological Association, the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy and the National Association of Social Workers. These are legitimate organizations and have professional standards.

(4) You can locate government-funded agencies with psychiatric services by going on the Internet. Some

hospitals refer to community service organizations. In any emergency room, you can contact the hospital’s outreach to community development programs, as well.

Dear Abby: My husband and a friend of mine joke about being an item. They do this in public and in front of me.

They hug, hold hands or rub each other’s shoulders, but I don’t think anything more goes on.

These activities offend and embarrass me. My husband says the jokes are innocuous, that I’m too sensitive and I’m making a mountain out of a molehill. He

it easily could have been knocked to the floor, and the consequences of that. I realized that I was still figuratively hearing my father’s voice – 51 years later.

Feelings of sadness, abandonment, loss and even anger are especially likely around birthdays, weddings, the anniversary of the death and holidays or other occasions you might have shared.

A familiar scent, song or likeness also can trigger feelings of grief. All of this is entirely normal.

So, depending on the strength of the bond that was broken, grief can be lifelong.

Usually, though, grief softens and changes over time.

The raw, all-consuming shock of early grief eventually will begin to lessen.

Gradually, at your own pace, you will find yourself adjusting to your loss and slipping back into the routines of daily life.

The following tips might help you to get through this difficult time: • Establish a simple, daily schedule. A familiar routine can help restore a sense of normalcy and make grief more manageable. It lends structure to the day at a time when life seems unfamiliar and out of control.

• Maintain a regular sleep schedule. When you’re grieving, sleep can be particularly important at helping maintain emotional balance.

Grief is exhausting, and sleep can represent a relief from the emotional pain of loss.

BRIDGE Phillip Alder

says they certainly wouldn’t act that way in public if they really were seeing each other on the sly.

Do you think I’m being overly sensitive about this? –

Disrespected Dear Disrespected: I don’t think you’re being overly sensitive. That it’s “innocent” is beside the point. Because you have told them their touchy-feely demonstrations of affection for each other offend and embarrass you, out of respect for you they should cut it out.

• Write Dear Abby at www. dearabby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Trick one to Handling grief differs from one person to another trick four Dear Dr. K: My spouse passed away last year, and I am still grieving. Is this normal?

Dear Reader: By coincidence, I’m writing this reply to your question on the 51st anniversary of my father’s death. He died very young.

This is a sad day – at least for me, this grief never fully ends.

Grief is not a mountain to be climbed and then descended with a map in hand.

It differs greatly from one person to another and from one culture to the next. In America, there can be pressure, often from well-meaning family and friends, to attain “closure” by the time a year has passed. The truth, though, is that grief doesn’t neatly conclude at the one-

ASK DR. K Anthony L. Komaroff year mark.

The more important someone was to your life, the more opportunities there are for happy and sad reminders that underscore your loss. The other evening, for example, my wife had placed a glass of wine near the edge of the dinner table. When I saw it, I instinctively moved it away from the edge.

Then I realized my father was very compulsive about this. When my sister and I were young, whenever we had placed a glass of liquid near the edge of the table, he’d move it. He explained

• Keep up with your exercise. A simple walk, a bike ride, yoga or a harder workout can ease agitation, anger and depression. Exercise can serve as a distraction when you need a break from grief.

Exercise also can help lift spirits by releasing mood-elevating hormones, relieving stress and promoting a sense of well-being.

• Finally, give yourself permission to grieve.

Healing won’t happen on a schedule. Be patient with yourself. And if you need a break from grieving, that’s OK, too.

Newspaper Enterprise Association

TODAY – Put yourself in the driver’s seat. Depending on others for your success is unrealistic and unrewarding. You have the knowledge, energy and stamina to succeed at anything you put your mind to, so up your game and make a fresh start.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – You should take care of responsibilities that you’ve been neglecting in order to avoid an emotional confrontation. Getting your duties out of the way will be appreciated by others and will give you a sense of accomplishment.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Make the most of your time by being helpful and showing concern for others. Join forces with an organization that reflects your values and offer your services.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Don’t feel guilty turning down invitations or requests if you need some time to yourself. You do so much for everyone else, at the expense of your health and well-being.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Shake up your routine and participate in a community event. Stimulate your imagination and make personal changes. Romance is amplified, and sharing your experience with someone special will bring you closer together.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Flashing large amounts of cash will give someone the wrong impression. Pay your own way, but don’t try to convince people you are something you’re not.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Don’t be shy; you should discuss your dreams. Unnecessary and costly delays are likely if you are unprepared or disorganized. The suggestions that people offer you will help you cut corners and succeed.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Make sure you receive all the required information before you offer your opinion or advice.

Don’t allow a minor letdown to escalate into a major incident that could leave you in a precarious position.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – You owe it to yourself and your loved ones to let loose and have a little fun. Plan a surprise and shower the people you love with your affection.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Self-improvement plans will bring good results. Feeling fit and healthy will boost your confidence and give you a positive mindset. It’s time to put your needs first.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Don’t let personal issues lead to indulgence. Excess will end up contributing to your troubles, not eliminating them. Ask for help or draw on your inner strength to help you overcome negative influences.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – A decision you are toying with will be easier if you investigate the pros and cons first. Confrontations will not turn out in your favor. Remain an observer, not a participant.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Don’t fall for a sob story. Being too trusting will end up costing you physically, emotionally or financially. Don’t offer your time, opinion or money.

the most important aspect of open, honest communication, especially between parent and child.

Good parents find time to listen when a child needs to talk, according to Dr. Debbie Ebner, a clinical psychologist at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston. Parents should be ready to stop whatever they’re doing and devote their full attention to their child the moment they get an inkling that he or she has something important to talk about.

Generally, it is more helpful to assist your teen in thinking through his or her personal beliefs, values and feelings, rather than asserting your own values. If a parent

goes on at length about her own opinions, she may be lecturing rather than listening.

When you need to know certain information, you should elicit it by asking open-ended questions such as, “Tell me more about the party,” rather than saying, “There better not be any alcohol served at the party.”

When your teen feels comfortable and not threatened with intimidating questions, you’re more likely to obtain quality information.

Everybody wants to be heard. The very wise want to listen.

CROSSWORD

Lewis Carroll wrote, “If you don’t know where you are going, any road will take you there.”

When walking or driving, you have choices for which way to turn; in bridge, you have suits and cards to decide among. Sometimes choosing between, say, card A and card B makes no difference; but much more often it will be critical.

In this deal, how should South plan the play in four spades after West leads the heart queen?

South’s three-diamond rebid was a help-suit game-try, which asked his partner to concentrate on his pointed-suit holdings. North, with an excellent singleton diamond, jumped to game.

Yes, this was a tad pushy by South, but he could count three points for his singleton given the known nine- or 10-card spade fit. Also, his hand had six losers (one spade, two hearts, two diamonds and one club), which is the normal number for a game-try after this start to an auction.

Declarer has five potential losers: one spade, one heart, two diamonds and one club.

He will have to ruff his two diamond losers in the dummy, but the first trick is critical.

Suppose declarer wins with his heart king, cashes his diamond ace and ruffs a diamond – what next? He is stranded on the board. However he exits from the dummy, the defenders can win the trick and play two rounds of trumps to stop the second diamond ruff.

Declarer must win the first trick with dummy’s heart ace. Then the play proceeds: diamond to the ace, diamond ruff, heart to the king, diamond ruff, trump. The defenders have no answer.
