Gas fire causes $150K in damage No one injured in 3-hour gas line fire in DeKalb

By ANDREA AZZO aazzo@shawmedia.com and KATIE DAHLSTROM kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Crews installing a fence broke an underground natural gas line that caught fire and burned for about 3 hours Thursday in the Meadow Trail subdivision.

DeKalb Fire Chief Eric Hicks said firefighters responded at 10 a.m. Thursday to a home in the 400 block of Red Wing Lane, which is off Bethany Road east of First Street.

When they arrived, they found

“With gas leaks, you’re better off letting it burn,” Hicks said.

The excavator had been installing a fence around a DeKalb Sanitary District lift station that sits in the front yard of a home. Residents said they have waited months to

have the fence installed.

“We’ve been having discussions about putting up a privacy fence,” said Matt Swan, who lives next door to the lift station. “I guess the fire just becomes an interesting part of the story.”

The fence burned in the fire, which also melted the siding on the nearby home. Fire officials estimated the fire caused $150,000 in damage.

One person in a home next to the fire was evacuated, but no one was injured, Hicks said.

DeKalb firefighters doused the nearby homes with water

to create a water curtain that would protect the homes while they waited for Nicor to arrive and turn off gas service.

Nicor workers arrived about 11:15 a.m. Using shovels and another excavator, crews dug two holes about 1,000 feet apart, six feet deep to the gas lines near the fire and crimped both 2-inch plastic gas lines simultaneously to staunch the flow of gas. The fire was extinguished about 1 p.m.

Scarers and the scared explain joy in DeKalb County haunts

If you go

aazzo@shawmedia.com DeKALB – It was pitch black for about five minutes at the Egyptian Theatre’s haunted house when a lost Michelle Mears bumped into her biggest fear: clowns.

Mears, 19, of Elgin estimated she has been to more than 50 haunted houses in her life. She recently visited Egyptian Theatre’s Amenti Haunted House, 135 N. Second St. in DeKalb, where she screamed and jumped while making her way past actors with chainsaws and straitjackets.

“I literally have ‘clownaphobia,’” she said. “I was grabbing onto this lady in front of me, and I didn’t even know her.”

Mears voluntarily puts herself into these situations for the thrill of it, and there is some science behind how scared ghoulish thrills make individuals react. Those who study how the brain reacts to fear say the mind is often trained to assess a fearful situation and people react to a fearful situation based on how they are able to regulate their emotions.

GENOA — The candidates in the DeKalb County Board race in District 2 differ on what issues they consider most important.

John Noyes, a Genoa Democrat, and Maureen Little, a Kingston Republican, are both vying for a seat in District 2, which covers the northeastern portion of the county and includes both G e n o a a n d John Kingston.

Noyes Noyes, a retired teacher from District 300 in Carpentersville and political newcomer, said he considers the Maureen DeKalb County Little Jail expansion a top priority, as well as the air odor issues from Waste Management’s landfill near Cortland.

At an April workshop meeting, County Board members said they wanted to spend $23 million on the jail expansion project, less than the cheapest proposal of $29 million, which would add 163 beds.

Noyes said the best way to solve the jail expansion issue would be to look long term at the county’s anticipated revenues over the next few years. The current county jail has only 89 beds and is usually full. As a result, the county now spends about $1 million a year paying Kendall and Boone counties to house inmates.

Maze

Even for people who are easily fearful of haunted houses, the best way to train the brain to be less scared is to practice by going to haunted houses more often, said David Zald, professor of psychology and psychiatry at Vanderbilt University. Zald has studied combinations of brain areas involved

in fear and whether there is preferential detection of fearful stimuli.

What he has found is the amygdala, the region of the brain that controls emotions, is essential for having a learned context to control the extent to

By KATIE DAHLSTROM CHICAGO – The Illinois Commerce Commission has approved ComEd’s Grand Prairie Gateway Project, a new transmission line that will run 60 miles across Ogle, DeKalb, Kane and DuPage counties.

Construction is set to begin after April 2015 for the line to be in service by June 2017.

ComEd spokesperson David O’Dowd said the line will require about 400 steel power poles from ComEd’s existing substation in Wayne, just east of the Kane County line, to the

substation in Byron in Ogle County.

ComEd officials said the new 345,000-volt electric transmission line will meet the increased demand for power and, in turn, lower costs for customers. They said congestion on the lines is impeding customers’ access to the company’s lowest-cost energy plants, such as wind energy. O’Dowd added that in the first 15 years after the line is running, it will result in $250 million in savings for electricity consumers.

“This line is necessary to relieve the congestion that is increasing the cost of electric-

ity,” O’Dowd said.

In the meantime, ComEd will send letters to property owners along the line explaining the land acquisition process. ComEd has rights to about 60 percent of the land along the route, meaning it still needs easements along 24 miles of the line, O’Dowd said.

Sycamore Mayor Ken Mundy said he was happy to hear the commission approved the line, which will run for 18 miles through the northern part of DeKalb County, between Route 72 and Route 64.

“Commonwealth Edison was very good about working with the stakeholders,”

Mundy said. “... We’re pleased with the route that was chosen.”

The approved route was one of several floated during the hearing process from the time ComEd officials proposed the line last year. Other routes would have brought the line closer to Sycamore.

Since proposing the project, ComEd held three rounds of open houses and stakeholder meetings, which ComEd reported about 2,000 people attended.

The company in December asked the Illinois Commerce Commission for permission to construct the line.

DeKalb playground being removed

By ANDREA AZZO aazzo@shawmedia.com DeKALB – DeKalb Park District construction crews expect to finish removing a playground near a former DeKalb elementary school by early next week, park officials said.

The Adventures in Barbland playground near the former Chesebro Elementary School, 900 E. Garden St., is being removed because it is outdated and not up to hand-

icap-accessible standards, park district officials said.

A new playground in a space similar to the Adventures in Barbland playground can cost upward of $100,000, DeKalb Park District Executive Director Jason Mangum said. There are two other playgrounds within a few blocks for families to use: Founders Elementary School, 821 S. Seventh St., DeKalb, and Hallgren Park, at Franklin and South Eighth streets, DeKalb.

“Based on that, and the

fact that we would not replace that playground with another one like it, we’ll just leave it empty for now,” said Phil Young, president of DeKalb Park Board.

Park district officials are paying about $10,000 to remove the playground, which was installed in 1993. The cost of the removal will be paid for using funds allocated in the last fiscal year budget for playground removal, said Todd Bex, parks planning and development project manag-

er.

The playground needed to be removed because the old wood was cracking and because the playground was designed in a way where children could hide instead of being seen from any vantage point, Young said.

Young’s own children, ages 15, 13 and 10, have been to the playground in the past.

“My kids have gotten splinters there in the past,” he said. “That’s why they don’t make those anymore.”

Canada gunman wanted a passport to go to Mideast The ASSOCIATED PRESS OTTAWA, Ontario – He seemed lost, “did not fit in,” had drug problems, and went more than five years without seeing his mother. In recent weeks, he had been living at a homeless shelter and had talked about wanting to go to Libya – or Syria – but became agitated when he couldn’t get a passport.

A day after Michael Zehaf-Bibeau launched a deadly attack on Canada’s seat of government, a portrait of the 32-year-old Canadian began to emerge, along with a possible explanation for what triggered the shooting rampage.

Bob Paulson, commissioner of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, said that Zehaf-Bibeau – a Muslim whose father was from Libya – may have lashed out in frustration over delays in obtaining a passport.

“I think the passport figured prominently in his motives. I’m not inside his head, but I think it was central to what was driving him,” Paulson said.

In what the prime minister called a terrorist attack, Bibeau shot a soldier to death at Canada’s national war memorial Wednesday, then stormed the Parliament building, where he was gunned down by the sergeant-at-arms.

Bibeau was armed with what police said was a lever-action Winchester rifle, an old-fashioned, relatively slow-firing weapon.

The attack was the second deadly assault on Canadian soldiers in three days and forced the country to confront the danger of radicalized citizens in its midst.

It also exposed weak spots in security: • During the attack, Prime Minister Stephen Harper hid in a closet-like space within a Parliament caucus room. The Mounties who are assigned to protect him were on the other

From now on, Paulson said, the Mounties will guard the prime minister around the clock, wherever he goes.

• In the wake of the tragedy, all members of the Canadian military have been ordered to avoid wearing their uniforms in public while doing such things as shopping or eating at restaurants.

• Earlier this week, the Mounties said that there are about 90 people in the country who are suspected of planning to join up with extremist fighters abroad or who have returned from such activity.

But Paulson said Thursday that Zehaf-Bibeau was not on that list and was not under surveillance, in part because it was not until after the shooting rampage that they learned from his mother that he wanted to go Syria, where a host of militant groups such as Islamic State are fighting.

• Authorities are investigating how the gunman obtained the rifle, when he

should been prohibited from possessing one because of his criminal record.

As for Zehaf-Bibeau’s passport application, it “was not rejected. His passport was not revoked,” Paulson said.

“He was waiting to get it, and there was an investigation going on to determine to see whether he would get a passport.”

That obstacle appeared to weigh heavily on Zehalf-Bibeau, a petty criminal with a long rap sheet, including a string of drug offenses.

Abubakir Abdelkareem, who often visited the Ottawa Mission, a homeless shelter downtown where Zehaf-Bibeau stayed in recent weeks, said Zehaf-Bibeau told him he had had a drug problem but had been clean for three months and was trying to steer clear of temptation by going to Libya.

But in the three days before the rampage, “his personality changed completely,” Abdelkareem said. “He was not

talkative; he was not social” anymore and slept during the day, said Abdelkareem, who concluded the man was back on drugs.

Lloyd Maxwell, another shelter resident, said that Zehaf-Bibeau had lived for some time in Vancouver, then Calgary, then came to Ottawa specifically to try to get a passport, believing that would be more easily accomplished in the nation’s capital.

“He didn’t get it, and that made him very agitated,” Maxwell said. Maxwell said that he suggested to the man that he might be on a no-fly list, and “he kind of looked at me funny, and he walked away.”

In an email to the AP expressing horror and sadness at what happened, Zehaf-Bibeau’s mother, Susan Bibeau, said that her son seemed lost and “did not fit in,” and that she hadn’t seen him for more than five years until having lunch with him last week.

Ice cream pumpkin sculpture named festival’s ‘Pick of the Patch’

By KATIE DAHLSTROM

Addison Foulk, 17, of Genoa won Pick of the Patch at this year’s Sycamore Pumpkin Festival for her ice cream cone pumpkin display. The pumpkins can be viewed on the DeKalb County Courthouse lawn.

kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com

SYCAMORE – In a twist that she didn’t expect, Addison Foulk’s inspiration for her award-winning pumpkin invention also will be part of her prize.

Foulk, a 17-year-old Sycamore High School student from Genoa, took the top honor of the Sycamore Pumpkin Festival’s display contest. Judges named her display, a towering ice cream cone made of three-pumpkins with a smaller Monica Synett – pumpkin for the cherry, as the mmaschak@shawmePick of the Patch at the Lions dia.com Decorated Pumpkin Display in front of the DeKalb County Courthouse, 133 W.

Foulk was one of more than 1,000 people to enter this year’s pumpkin display contest. The number of entries were up slightly from last year, Lions Club member Sharon Foster said.

It took about six hours to create the frozen-treat-emulating display, Foulk said. She didn’t start working on it until Sunday and completed the project with help from her mom, Kristi, and sister, Andrea, 10.

They used filler foam for the whipped cream and kept the display standing with a shovel handle speared through the pumpkins and the hole in the bottom of the flower pot serving as the base.

Hard work aside, to be named Pick of the Patch, Foulk’s pumpkin had to impress three judges. For Judge

Joshua Kruis, the pumpkin was the winner because it was inventive, in line with this year’s “Pumpkin Inventions” theme.

“I thought it was creative and different,” Kruis said.

Foulk found out she won as she was driving home from school Thursday. She hopped out of her car to take a picture of her pumpkin and accompanying sign.

She didn’t expect to win, but is glad that she did on her final year entering the contest.

“You gotta go big for your last year,” Foulk said.

Driver in 2009 bank robbery sent to prison

By ANDREA AZZO aazzo@shawmedia.com SYCAMORE – A Chicago woman who said she drove her boyfriend and his cousin to rob a DeKalb bank with an assault rifle accepted a plea agreement Thursday for initially lying to police.

Jasmen Cunningham, 27, of the 7500 block of South Blackstone Avenue, pleaded guilty Thursday to obstructing justice in exchange for prosecutors Jasmen dropping a more Cunningham serious charge of armed robbery against her.

She was sentenced to two years in prison.

Associate Judge John McAdams recommended Cunningham be placed into the Impact Incarceration Program, a minimum three-month boot camp designed to offer reduced

sentences for certain offenders.

Cunningham testified against Eric Bernard, 32, of Chicago, who Presiding Judge Robbin Stuckert sentenced to 55 years in prison for armed robbery. Stuckert sentenced Bernard’s cousin, Michael King, 31, formerly of Chicago, to 23 years in prison.

Cunningham testified in court that she drove the two men to Associated Bank in DeKalb the day before and the day of the robbery on Nov. 11, 2009. The men stole more than $6,000 from the bank and threatened employees at gunpoint, court records show.

Cunningham, the mother of one of Bernard’s three children, twice told police that Bernard and King were at her Northern Illinois University dorm room the day of the robbery, and both times she later recanted those statements, according to court testimony. Cunningham will receive 41 days of credit for time she spent in jail.

LOCAL BRIEF Ex-swim coach denies sex assault charges SYCAMORE – A former DeKalb-Sycamore co-op swim coach has denied criminal charges alleging she had a sexual relationship with an underage swimmer between May 1 and Aug. 28.

Leah Eames Appearing before Associate Judge John McAdams on Thursday, Leah Eames, 33, of the 600 block of Haish Boulevard in DeKalb, pleaded not guilty to charges of criminal sexual assault and aggravated criminal sexual abuse. The harshest potential sentence she could face is 30 years in prison;

the lightest is probation.

Eames’ attorney, Jack Slingerland, declined to comment on the case.

DeKalb police began investigating Eames on Aug. 10, when a police officer checking the Barb City YMCA, 1515 S. Fourth St. in DeKalb, after hours found Eames working out with a student, DeKalb police Lt. Bob Redel said.

The late hour seemed curious to the officer, so police investigated further.

Eames posted $7,500 bail Aug. 27 shortly after her arrest.

The case is next due in court Dec. 3. Sycamore School District 427 board members accepted her resignation as a math teacher there Oct. 14.

ANALYSIS

Republicans hopes President Obama is key to Senate control

By DAVID ESPO The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Struggling to preserve their Senate majority, Democrats are attacking Republicans over Medicare and Social Security in Louisiana, spending cuts in Arkansas, off-shore jobs in New Hampshire and women’s issues in Colorado.

Republicans have a onesize fits-all counter-argument.

It’s Barack Obama, a twoterm president they’ve turned into a political punching bag and pummeled at will while Democrats avert their eyes.

“Mark Begich is with Obama. I’m with you,” Republican challenger Dan Sullivan of Alaska says in his newest television commercial in one of several close race in red states that define the nation’s battle for Senate control.

He’s not the only one.

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, plagued by his own poor approval ratings, has said much the same thing for months in Kentucky.

His opponent, Alison Lundergan Grimes won’t disclose if she voted for a president whose nominating convention she attended two years ago. At a debate last week, the secretary of state wrapped her refusal in lofty principle, citing a “constitutional right for privacy at the ballot box.”

After remaining off television for more than a week, Democrats say they will make

one final advertising push on Grimes’ behalf. But Republicans sound increasingly confident that McConnell will win a sixth term, and nearly all public polls suggest the same.

Nationally, Republicans must gain six seats to win Senate control. The most competitive races, many in states where Obama lost in 2012, remain tight enough in the polls to leave the outcome in doubt after months of campaigning, a mid-October debate season and millions of dollars in attack ads.

As a result, it appears that Democratic hopes for maintaining Senate control hinge on overcoming Obama’s general unpopularity with a targeted get-out-the-vote program to boost turnout among blacks, young voters and women in key states.

Among them are Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Hampshire, North Carolina and Colorado, a state where Hispanic voters will be particularly important. Another state, Kansas, is in a category of its own, a Republican stronghold where veteran GOP Sen. Pat Roberts is struggling against independent Greg Orman.

There is evidence of a potent effort by Democrats to expand the customary midterm electorate. Arkansas reports 131,000 newly registered voters this year, and there are more than that in Georgia, the

state where Democratic hopes of picking up a Republican seat are strongest.

Robert McLarty, in charge of the Democratic get-out-thevote effort in Arkansas, says new voters are heavily black, young and female. “These folks have probably not been surveyed” by pollsters whose work points to a victory for Republican Tom Cotton, he added.

Yet Republicans say they, too, have spent months on turnout. “Our entire effort is now focused on low-propensity voters,” said Sean Spicer of the Republican National Committee, referring to people who either do not generally vote or do not usually support GOP candidates.

Other Republicans express skepticism at the Democratic claims.

“It’s not like the Democrats get to operate in a vacuum.

We get to run a campaign, too,” said Justin Brasell, campaign manager for GOP Rep. Cotton in Arkansas.

Cotton, a first-term congressman is challenging Sen. Mark Pryor, who won six years ago without Republican opposition. Now, Cotton says Pryor “votes 93 percent of the time with Barack Obama. I don’t know many Arkansans who think that Barack Obama is right 93 percent of the time.”

It’s a safe bet in a state where Obama won 37 percent of the vote in 2012.

Border deaths at 15-year low

By ASTRID GALVAN The Associated Press TUCSON, Ariz. – The number of people who died trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border has dropped to the lowest level in 15 years as more immigrants turned themselves in to authorities in Texas and fewer took their chances with the dangerous trek across the Arizona desert.

The U.S. government recorded 307 deaths in the 2014 fiscal year that ended in September – the lowest number since 1999.

In 2013, the number of deaths was 445.

The Border Patrol’s Rio Grande Valley sector finished the 2014 budget year with 115

deaths, compared with 107 in the Tucson sector, according to figures obtained by The Associated Press. It marks the first time since 2001 that Arizona has not been the deadliest place to cross the border.

Arizona has long been the most dangerous border region because of triple-digit temperatures, rough desert terrain and the sheer volume of immigrants coming in to the state from Mexico. But more immigrants are now entering through Texas and not Arizona, driven by a surge of people from Central America.

The Tucson and Rio Grande Valley both saw their numbers of deaths decline from 2013, although Arizona’s drop was

more precipitous.

Border enforcement officials say the lower numbers are in part because of increased rescue efforts as well as a Spanish-language media campaign discouraging Latin Americans from walking across the border.

Tucson Sector Division Chief Raleigh Leonard said the addition of 10 new rescue beacons that were strategically placed in areas where immigrants traverse most often has been a factor in the decrease in deaths.

“I think we can all agree that crossing the border is an illegal act, but nothing that should be assigned the penalty of death,” Leonard said in an interview.

Lift station’s generator destroyed • FIRE Continued from page A1 District, said the fire likely caused more than $100,000 in damage to their equipment alone. The lift station, which takes sewage from the area and pumps it to the Sanitary District’s main facility, received a $300,000 upgrade about a year ago. At that time, the sanitary district removed trees that surrounded lift station, prompting neighbors to ask for a privacy fence.

The lift station’s generator was destroyed and other parts of it were damaged, but the

lift station returned to service about 2:30 p.m. Eddington expects it will take two months or more to repair it.

Crews from the sanitary district pumped sewage from the lift station into a holding tank during the fire, so residents did not experience an interruption in sewer service.

Fire fighters spent almost three hours after the fire was extinguished making sure homes in the area were free of natural gas.

Eddington said the gas line was marked with the standard yellow paint, so he was unsure how the operator from Northern Illinois Fence in Cortland

“We’ve got to look at the plan that will be best for the community and best for taxpayers,” Noyes said. “I’m not saying we’ve got to put up the Taj Mahal, but we’ve got to find something that’s going to keep revenue inside [the] county.”

Meanwhile, Little’s efforts are focused on how to save money for the cost of 911 dispatch services in smaller communities like Genoa-Kingston.

The Sycamore Police Department and DeKalb County Communication Center commissioned a study last year of the center’s operation and cost. The study showed that Genoa was paying a greater percentage of the costs than the police dispatch call volume for which they were responsible.

County officials say they are considering gradually increasing the predicted costs to the smaller municipalities over a seven-year span. Little wants that increase to be stretched over a longer period of time in smaller increments.

“That’s a huge issue for this area. We might have to [hold] a referendum to cover the cost,” Little said. “I would not have voted for the increase if I was on the board.”

Continued from page A1 which people are scared.

For example, the extent to which someone is startled by another person dropping a book can be manipulated, just like how someone can train themselves to be less scared at a haunted house, Zald said.

“When you go to a haunted house, you know it’s make believe,” Zald said. “In the back of your mind, you’re able to say, ‘This should be OK.’ “That’s important ... that context means everything.”

Zald said haunted houses can also make someone feel superior or have a higher sense of confidence when they successfully complete it with friends. That was how Mike Bruce, 22, of Crystal Lake felt after he walked through the Amenti Haunted House.

Bruce said his senses also

were heightened while at the haunted house. He still remembers a man chasing him with a fake chain saw and an actress who wanted him to stay at her birthday party.

“For whatever reason, it’s fun to not have the control and put yourself in an environment where it’s safe or it’s not,” Bruce said. “There’s something about not having that control and [having] all that scary stuff thrown at you.”

Those who do the scaring also get a thrill out of their role at a haunted house, said Megan Smith, a Sycamore mother and scare actress at Jonamac Orchard’s Haunted Corn Maze, 19412 Shabbona Road in Malta.

Smith said she has been a scarer for six years, starting out as a volunteer at the Amenti Haunted House. She sometimes plays a zombie character at the Haunted Corn Maze,

painting her face in shades of gray, green, black and brown while squirting fake blood all over her mouth.

“It just makes me happy.

It completes me,” said Smith, whose favorite holiday is Halloween.

Since Smith works as a scarer, she said that when she goes to haunted houses as a guest, she studies the actors instead of being fearful.

“Sometimes I get scared at other haunted houses,” she said. “Other times, my mind takes over and it tells me, ‘You do that for a living too. It’s all fake.’ I try to turn that off to get the excitement.”

Little said she missed being involved in her community, which is why she has been spending time knocking on local residents’ doors.

“I really like my community, and I think there needs to be a louder voice from this community,” she said.

As for Noyes, he said he is running for office because, as a former history and government teacher, he used to preach to students to become involved in the community and to vote.

“I guess it’s my turn,” he said. “After preaching that for over 30 years, it’s my time to step forward and do my part.”

Note to readers

Twerk on, my sisters. Twerk on.

The first time I saw the video of Miley Cyrus “twerking” with Robin Thicke...

Let’s start over.

I can’t bring myself even to go there again. Doddering old feminist that I am, I think a woman should save her groin-grinding for the guy who loves her, and I don’t need to be a witness to the tryst.

Even if I were in my 20s, I wouldn’t be twerking. To me, feminism has always meant that any guy who wanted to be that close to me was going to have to work for it. At the very least, he was not going to be dressed like an umpire and singing about a predatory version of love.

It was this attitude, by the way, that bought me a lot of lonely nights in college and beyond, but I have to tell you, I’ve never regretted that. Party girl that I wasn’t, I did teach human sexuality right out of college through the women’s studies department.

I made students craft the reproductive system of the opposite sex. Wish I’d kept some of those masterpieces of fiction.

Anyway, back to twerking, which legendary singer Annie Lennox recently harpooned in an interview to promote her new album, “Nostalgia.”

In September, Lennox responded to a question about fellow singer Beyonce’s performance at the MTV Video Music Awards, during which Beyonce stood in front of the giant illumi-

VIEWS Connie Schultz nated word “FEMINIST.” “I would call that feminist lite,” Lennox said.

Whoa. Right? Except here is the rest of her response: “I’m sorry. It’s tokenistic to me. I mean, I think she’s a phenomenal artist – I just love her performances – but I’d like to sit down [with her]. I think I’d like to sit down with quite a few artists and talk to them. I’d like to listen to them; I’d like to hear what they truly think.”

She kept going.

“I see a lot of it as them taking the word hostage and using it to promote themselves, but I don’t think they necessarily represent wholeheartedly the depths of feminism – no, I don’t. I think for many it’s very convenient and it looks great and it looks radical, but I have some issues with it. I have issues with it. Of course I do. I think it’s a cheap shot. I think what they do with it is cheap and ... yeah. What can I tell you? Sex always [sells]. And there’s nothing wrong with sex selling, but it depends on your audience. If they’re 7-year-old kids, I have issues with it.”

A lot more thoughtful, not to mention open to a discussion, which makes for a lousy sound bite. Headline shorthand: Annie

Hates Beyonce.

Earlier this week, Lennox was at it again, if by “it” we mean expressing her opinion about what feminism means to her. The nerve of this woman to insist on defining who she is.

“Listen,” she told Steve Inskeep. “Twerking is not feminism.”

I should have mentioned this sooner: If you don’t know what twerking is, well, God bless you.

I hope you’re recovering from whatever has kept you in isolation all these months. If you’re curious, skip right past Miley Cyrus and head straight to Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” music video, which has more than 263 million hits on YouTube. You won’t need caffeine for days.

More of Lennox’s interview with Inskeep: “The reason why I’ve commented is because I think that this overt sexuality thrust – literally – at particular audiences, when very often performers have a very, very young audience, like 7 years old, I find it disturbing, and I think its exploitative. It’s troubling.

I’m coming from a perspective of a woman that’s had children. ... It’s not liberating. It’s not empowering. It’s a sexual thing that you’re doing on a stage. It doesn’t empower you. That’s my feeling about it.”

When I heard Lennox’s interview Monday morning, I breathed a sigh of relief. Until she said it out loud, I’d never

even considered sharing how twerking makes me wince. It’s not that I don’t want young women to feel sexy and in charge of their lives. It’s just not my definition of power or how I would ever have wanted to express it. My grown children are glad to know that, I’m sure, which makes me want to write an entire column titled “How Do You Think You Got Here?” – but let’s move on.

After showing my solidarity with Lennox online, I’ve gotten an earful from bright young women who want me to know they don’t care what I think about twerking or Beyonce or anything else.

This thrills me. It does, I swear, because it confirms that 80-year-old Gloria Steinem is right when she insists we don’t need any one person to replace her after she’s gone. They’re everywhere, these strong women, and they’re right to define feminism for themselves.

Time to retire “You go, girl.”

Twerk on, my sisters. Twerk on.

It is good to see local government and health officials work together to give local police officers a potential life-saving tool.

An initiative to provide the opiate antidote Narcan to local police, including in Sycamore, DeKalb and DeKalb County, is underway now. The program, which will provide DeKalb County-area police with the drug, will cost about $6,000 and is being sponsored by KishHealth System.

If results seen in nearby DuPage County are any indicator, it seems likely that Narcan will save lives.

In DuPage, which began equipping police with Narcan in January, the antidote has saved 18 people’s lives in 19 For the record attempts.

Saving the lives of people with an addiction is a worthwhile goal. Perhaps returning from the brink of death could even provide the kind of shock necessary to persuade an addict to quit.

That of course should be the end goal – not just saving people from overdose but helping them to stop using for good. Heroin use, although not as common as the use of illegal drugs such as cocaine, tranquilizers or prescription painkillers, has been growing rapidly.

The number of heroin users in the United States nearly doubled from 2007 to 2012, to about 669,000.

Heroin is in our communities – people are sometimes arrested on charges of selling the drug to undercover informants, or alleged to have it packaged for sale. It happens in the large communities and in the small towns, too.

DeKalb County also has seen its share of overdose deaths. Three of the seven overdoses in DeKalb County in 2013 were from heroin. Two of six overdoses were from heroin in 2012.

Training police on how to save someone from an overdose does not make heroin use any safer or saner.

Often people who overdose are not discovered until it is too late to help them.

However, those who can be helped are worth saving.

A Daily Chronicle review of coroner’s records in September showed that 12 of the 17 heroin overdose deaths since January 2010 were men under age 35. They were people who had time to turn their lives around but never got the chance.

It is good to see local governments taking this potentially life-saving action, and we commend KishHealth System for stepping up to make it happen.

ANOTHER VIEW

Appeal of the Islamic State Western leaders sometimes suggest the Islamic State is its own worst enemy, so extreme in doctrine and practice that it will galvanize opposition within the Islamic world. While that is proving true to some extent – Muslim governments, senior clerics and even other jihadist groups have joined the fight against the would-be caliphate – the sobering truth is that the Islamic State also has picked up popular support and the allegiance of other militants in countries as far away as Algeria and Pakistan. The spread of the group’s medieval doctrine and tactics, such as beheading, is a product of its military successes in Iraq and Syria and its skill at social media, which bypasses the more traditional and restricted channels of communication in Arab autocracies. The contagion shows the reversal of the group’s momentum is crucial not just to the future of Iraq and its neighbors but also to the broader battle against Islamic extremism around the world.

Predictably, groups swearing allegiance to the Islamic State have appeared first in areas where state authority has broken down. Affiliates have declared themselves in at least two Libyan cities, and an Algerian cell swore allegiance to Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi before beheading a French hostage last month. The chief spokesman for the Pakistani Taliban and five of its commanders declared allegiance last week, shifting their fealty from the somewhat more moderate Afghan Taliban leadership of Mullah Omar.

In Egypt, the Sinai-based Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis group has beheaded at least nine captives since August, according to a report in the Los Angeles Times, and a commander boasted to a Reuters reporter that the Egyptian group had online contacts with the Islamic State. Even the Abu Sayyaf terrorist group in the Philippines has attempted to trade on the Islamic State aura; it released a statement last month threatening to kill two German hostages unless Germany withdrew from the U.S.-led coalition against the extremists.

Even more disturbing are signs that the Islamic State has the sympathy of many noncombatants in the region. In the Lebanese port of Tripoli, a longtime stronghold of radical Sunni groups, murals of the group’s black flags are painted on buildings in the center of the city, according to the Wall Street Journal. In Turkey, pro-Islamic State students at Istanbul University have triggered a series of fights on campus, according to the Associated Press.

The Obama administration has recognized the danger of the Islamic State’s appeal and has pushed for political steps to combat it, such as public statements by clerical authorities. Islamic extremism won’t be defeated by military might alone. But to many in the Islamic world, the Islamic State now looks strong. The only way to reverse its influence is through its military defeat, sooner rather than later.

PREP FOOTBALL WEEK 9 PREVIEWS GENESEO VS. DEKALB

Barbs are 1 win from perfection

STERLING VS. SYCAMORE

Hanging in balance Spartans need win to be playoff eligible

By EDDIE CARIFIO ecarifio@shawmedia.com As do most coaches, Joe Ryan preaches having a onegame-at-a-time attitude to his Sycamore football players.

When the Spartans take the field against Sterling tonight, it’s a very literal manifestation of that.

The Spartans need a win to become playoff eligible, and with their playoff points they likely will qualify for the postseason.

A loss, and they will be sitting home in Week 10 for the first time since 2008.

Ryan said he is confident the players have grasped the gravity of the situation.

“If not, it’s not one game at a time, it’s you’re last game if you’re a senior,” Ryan said.

“I think they understand that and know what win or go home means. A lot of these kids have been around in a lot of playoff situations with

“We haven’t done anything in awhile, so I think it will be big for the city of DeKalb to see us go 9-0 and win the whole conference,” receiver Rudy Lopez said.

Geneseo went perfect in the NI Big 12 West, setting up a defacto conference championship between the schools.

But with the game carrying little impact on the playoffs, Weckler said resting some injured players, including leading rusher and Illinois recruit Dre Brown, is a priority. Kick returner Tony Tate will miss his third straight game and center Zac Stepanski will miss his second.

Weckler said Tate and Stepanski are out for sure, but Brown and some other marginally banged up players

Cogs can’t stop sweep

by Rockets

By DAILY CHRONICLE sports@daily-chronicle.com

BY TRAVIS ZUELLIG sports@daily-chronicle.com BURLINGTON – In its final Big Northern East Conference match of the season, Genoa-Kingston ran into a wall. That wall was called regular-season conference champion Burlington Central.

On the Rocket’s senior night, G-K’s slow start out of the gate hurt any chances of the Cogs silencing the rowdy home crowd. Burlington Central rolled to a 25-9, 25-18 win to finish the regular season undefeated.

“We really, really struggled in the first set,” said G-K senior setter Breea Rogalla.

“We just fought as a hard as we can with what we had. We came back and outscored [ourselves] by an immense amount [more] than the first set. And, everybody has to be proud of that.”

Rogalla led the Cogs with six assists. Erika Hansel finished with four kills and Abbey Rasmussen finished with three. G-K head coach Keith Foster said the squad had mistakes throughout the contest.

“We made more errors than they made.

ends with junior quarterback Sterling Thornton, who has thrown for 608 yards and is the team’s rushing leader and has 18 touchdown s on the ground. He’s thrown for two touchdowns and two interceptions.

“He runs the ball really well, and they want it in his hands,” Ryan said. “But they do enough other stuff to keep you honest. And they’ve played really good defense.

That’s the makings of a 6-2 team.”

The Spartans are in this situationbecause of an 18-15 loss at Morris last week.

Morris had struggled this year, but have won two straight and can become playoff eligible with a win at home against LaSalle-Peru (0-8).

Ryan said small penalties have haunted the Spartans in their past two games, including a 14-0 loss at Yorkville.

On paper, there’s not much on the line for the DeKalb football team when it faces Geneseo at home tonight.

The Barbs have won the division. They’re in the playoffs. They’re getting at least a home game. They’ll probably be a top-two seed, win or lose.

But not only are they facing an 8-0 Maple Leafs team, they have a chance to finish the season perfect as well. And that’s something that hasn’t happened since 1941, when they went 8-0 according to ihsa.org.

“I don’t think, from what I understand, DeKalb has ever gone 9-0,” second-year coach Matt Weckler said. “It’s something we’re working for. Plus we said that this game is for us to compete against a very good football team that we still want to keep getting better.”

Since a conference title in 1989, the Barbs had four winless season but no division crowns – something that changed last week when they beat Yorkville to win the Northern Illinois Big 12 East.

The Barbs were 5-5 last year in Weckler’s first season, earning their first playoff

BC, credit to them, they played really well but we didn’t help ourselves,” Foster said.

In the opening game, the Rockets (29-6, 14-0 Big Northern) jumped out to an early 6-0 run. The Cogs (23-6, 11-3 Big Northern) got on the scoreboard on a Hansel kill. Burlington Central continued to show its strength with serves and spikes.

G-K had issues all contest handling the Rockets’ serves and errors came because of it. The Cogs never closed the gap to more than six points in the Game 1 loss.

SPORTS BRIEFS Manning, Sanders lead Broncos past Chargers DENVER– Emmanuel Sanders waited six long weeks to join the list of players who have caught a touchdown pass from Peyton Manning.

Now, he has four in less than a week.

Manning and Sanders connected for a trio of touchdowns Thursday night in the Denver Broncos’ 35-21 victory over the San Diego Chargers.

With the Chargers’ bangedup secondary double-teaming red-hot receiver Demaryius Thomas, Sanders caught TD throws of 2, 31 and 3 yards.

The last one followed Chris Harris Jr.’s interception of a flustered Philip Rivers.

Rookie running back Juwan Thompson added two TD runs as the Broncos (6-1) tightened their grip on the AFC West over the Chargers (5-3), who lost their second straight game.

Manning finished 25 of 35 for 286 yards. Sanders caught nine passes for 120 yards, and Ronnie Hillman added 109 yards on 20 carries.

Carden helps No. 18 ECU beat UConn GREENVILLE, N.C. GREENVILLE, N.C. – Coach Ruffin McNeill doesn’t care about impressing the committee that will decide if No. 18 East Carolina deserves a major bowl berth.

That’s not far from what happened Thursday night against Connecticut.

The Pirates needed a strong fourth quarter – and another huge performance from Shane Carden – to pull away from the pesky Huskies, 31-21.

Carden threw for a season-high 445 yards – his seventh career 400-yard performance – on 38-of-64 passing, and Breon Allen ran for two touchdowns.

PREDATORS 3, BLACKHAWKS 2

MLB PLAYOFFS

Neal’s hat trick dooms Hawks

By TERESA M. WALKER The Associated Press NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Peter Laviolette and his Nashville Predators, the only team in the NHL still unbeaten in regulation this season, believe they still can play better.

James Neal showed he is just starting to get comfortable, too.

Neal scored a natural hat trick, and Pekka Rinne made 30 saves in the Predators’ 3-2 win over the Blackhawks on Thursday night.

“It’s early in the season.

We’re a new group, it’s a new coach and a new system, and the guys they’re working hard at it,” Laviolette said. “Tonight was a good win.

“Last game I don’t think we were at our best, so consistency would be one of the things you could easily throw out there. Tonight, the guys were on point.”

The two Central Division rivals came in as the only teams yet to lose in regulation. They played into overtime six nights earlier in Chicago with the Hawks winning, 2-1, a game in which Nashville managed only 12 shots through the first two periods.

That loss hurt more because the Predators were on the power play when Jonathan Toews scored a short-handed goal for the win.

“We didn’t like the way we ended against Chicago last game,” Neal said. “We got a little redemption.”

The Predators earned points in their seventh straight game before a sellout crowd, continuing their best start since the 2010-11 season when they got points in each of their first eight.

For Neal, it was the fifth hat trick of his career. Acquired in a trade with Pittsburgh in June, Neal has five goals in four games. Filip Forsberg had two assists.

“That was awesome,” Rinne said of Neal’s hat trick. “It’s nice to see that kind of sniper. He has one of the better shots for sure in the league, and he used it tonight. Beautiful goals a couple of them, and obviously a huge game by him.”

Ben Smith and Andrew Shaw scored for the Hawks.

With the Hawks trailing, 3-1, Shaw tipped a rebound past Rinne at 12:36 of the third. That gave Hawks’ fans making the trip down for the game a reason

to get loud again.

The Hawks pulled goalie Antti Raanta for the extra attacker.

Rinne gloved the puck out of the air with 1:18 left with Shaw trying to score. Hawks’ coach Joel Quenneville took his timeout, but the Hawks couldn’t beat Rinne despite outshooting Nashville 32-27.

Quenneville called the third the Blackhawks’ best period by a mile.

“They came at us hard, and they get their turn in this building,” Quenneville said. “But you get down by two, and you put yourself in a tough spot.”

The Hawks left goalie Corey Crawford at home for this twogame road swing because of an upper body injury, and Raanta got his second straight start.

The Predators outshot Chicago early with a flurry of action in front of Raanta. But Smith flipped a wrister over Rinne’s outstretched leg off a rebound at 12:21 for a 1-0 lead for the Hawks.

Nashville failed to take advantage of a power play when Marcus Kruger went to the box for high-sticking Colin Wilson, but defenseman Seth Jones found Neal with a nice crossice pass. Neal beat Raanta off

his stick, tying it 1-1 in the final minute of the period.

The Hawks got its only man advantage at 13:07 of the second, and the Hawks took turns shooting at Rinne. He stopped drives from Toews and Patrick Kane, and a slap shot from Patrick Sharp in killing the penalty.

“We just couldn’t find a way,” Toews said. “We only got one power play in the second period, and it just wasn’t going for us.

And it was the same story late in the third.”

The Predators broke the tie at 16:12 of the second when the puck squirted over to Neal just inside the left circle near the slot, and his slap shot beat Raanta’s glove. Neal completed his hat trick at 1:52 of the third from the side on a wrister.

Notes: Neal’s previous hat trick was Dec. 29, 2013, against Carolina while he was with the Penguins. It was Nashville’s first hat trick at home since Sergei Kostitsyn had one on Jan. 1, 2012. ... Predators forward Mike Ribeiro had an assist on Neal’s goal, giving him points in five straight. ... Neal’s third goal was the first allowed by the Blackhawks in the third period this season.

DeKalb tops Morris in regular season finale

By ROB OESTERLE MORRIS– Before the season started, DeKalb girls volleyball coach Kyle Milborn knew his team would be built on defense.

That was certainly the case Thurday night in a 25-20, 25-22 Northern Illinois Big 12 East win over Morris.

The first game was tied at 20, but DeKalb scored the last five points, getting two consecutive kills from Heather Bemis

to spark the run. Bemis led the Barbs with seven kills in the match.

In the second game, Morris held a 20-18 lead, but DeKalb tied it again at 20 and took a 21-20 lead on a block by Jessa Henry and went up 22-20 on a Morris hitting error.

The Redskins (17-14, 1-7) rallied to tie it on kills by Kaylin Korte, who led the team with 11 kills, and Janelle Brehm, who finished with six.

DeKalb then got the serve

back on a Morris service error, and won it when Morris committed a lift violation and a double hit.

Besides Bemis, the Barbs got three kills from Morgan Newport, five from Kayla Schafer and two from Jacqueline Longeville.

“We are pretty balanced offensively,” Milborn said. “We knew from the start that we would have a good defensive team and that another team was going to have to beat us. We aren’t going

to beat ourselves very often.

“Every win we get is an allaround team win. We don’t have that one go-to player, so everyone has to contribute. We have done a nice job of building up before the regional. Morris is a very good team, and to beat them twice this year in two is quite an accomplishment for us.”

The Barbs (17-17) begin Class 4A Huntley Regional action as the third seed at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday against second-seeded Belvidere North.

Cogs headed to Stillman Valley for tournament • COGS Continued from page B1 “We definitely have to start faster,” Rogalla said. “One thing that Burlington Central has, that not many teams in this conference has, very, very fast paced game. It is just one of those things where if you have it, you have it. And, when you don’t, you don’t.”

In Game 2, Burlington Central and G-K exchanged points through most of the game.

With the score tied at 16-16, the Rockets went to work. Burlington Central outscored the Cogs 9-2 to close out a victory.

“The team played great. We talked about from the beginning of the game to step out and control the match,” Rock-

et coach Mitch Wiskirchen.

“We played with a lot of urgency and intensity, especially with the added thing that it is senior night.”

For Burlington Central, Mackenzie Whitmer and Maddy Barry each finished with eight assists. Aly DeTamble recorded seven kills to lead the Rockets.

Up next for the Cogs will be a tournament in Stillman Valley, which starts Saturday.

This will be a nice tune-up for the post season.

“We have a really competitive tournament at Stillman Valley on Saturday and that always helps us prepare for regional,” Foster said. “We will try out different lineups and try different things to see what works best.”

Continued from page B1 “We did some really good things – we moved the ball, we had a lot of diversity in our offense,” Ryan said. “I think if we can control our own mistakes we’ll be in a lot better situation.”

He said that diversity – which has taken a portion of the offense from running back Dion Hooker and given it to quarterback Brett Bemis and the receivers – may be a culprit in the increase in procedure

Continued from page B1 may see limited playing time or be gametime scratches as he trues to balance getting to 9-0 and what’s best for a playoff run.

“If guys are good to go we’re going to play them,” Weckler said. “We’re going in there to win the football game, we’re doing everything we can to win the football game, but at the

penalties.

“Maybe that’s created a little more of the anxiety on the kids, that we’ve taken them a little out of their comfort zone,” Ryan said. “But we’ve had to. There’s a lot of film out there so we’ve had to change up a few things.

But hopefully we’ve taken care of those things because it was really, the last two weeks, not typical of what we’ve done all year. We haven’t had penalties.”

win to be a part of that show.

Even with the narrow loss a week ago, and the success of last year – the Spartans reached the state semifinals – Ryan said he doesn’t consider the team to be in too bad of a situation since its playing a meaningful Week 9 game.

“I don’t know if you look at it as not an ideal situation,” Ryan said. “I think if you compare it to where you were last year, it’s not an ideal situation. But there’s a lot of teams that would love to be 4-4 with a chance to go to the playoffs. That’s what we have. That is an ideal situa-

tion. There’s a lot of teams that would like to be in our place, and we’ll see what we can do.

We’re playing a real good team, there’s no doubt about that.”

Weaver said the team, especially the seniors, is going to make the most out of the situation.

“It’s at it’s highest. There is no other feeling you can get.

This is your last one,” Weaver said. “A lot of kids after this won’t get the chance to play college football. This might be their last game. The emotions that go with this game are extremely high.”

“They don’t give up the big play and they don’t give up a lot of points,” Weckler said.

“Teams have been able to move the ball on them a little bit but haven’t been able to get it in the end zone.”

Lopez, also a cornerback, said he’s confident the team will be able to continue its usual offensive output – 39.6 points per game. The Barbs still are

averaging that much despite not cracking 30 points in the past two games.

Lopez said it will fall on the defense to slow down the Geneseo offense, which averages 34.6 points per game.

“We have to play very, very good defense,” Lopez said.

“That’s a very good football team. They’re 8-0 as well. The can move the ball. So we have to bring our ‘A’ game defensively.”

PREP FOOTBALL: WEEK 9 PREVIEW CAPSULES Geneseo (8-0) at DeKalb (8-0) Game time: 7:30 p.m. today Scouting the Maple Leafs: The Maple Leafs are a powerhouse program year in and year out. Last season, they took second place in Class 4A, and have continued the success this season with an undefeated start.

In addition to the traditional power rushing attack the Maple Leafs feature every season, Geneseo’s defense has been a huge strength as well. The Maple Leafs have given up only 50 points this season, and have four shutouts.

What’s at stake: Both teams have playoff berths and their respective conference titles already clinched. For DeKalb, the Barbs would clinch one of the top two spots in Class 6A with a win, as they’re currently one of two unbeaten teams in the class, along with Lemont.

DeKalb had trouble with Rochelle two weeks ago, needing a late twopoint conversion to escape with a victory. The Hubs run a similar offense as the Maple Leafs, and the best defense against the Barbs is keeping Dre Brown and the offense off the field.

– Steve Nitz, snitz@shawmedia.com Genoa-Kingston (4-4, 4-2 Big Northern East) at Richmond-Burton (5-3,3-3 BNC East) Game time: 7 p.m. today Last meeting: The Rockets won, 29-28, last season in Genoa.

Scouting the Rockets: Genoa-Kingston coach Travis Frederick estimated that the Rockets run the ball around 90 percent of the time out of their wing T offense, which features a lot of sweeps and misdirection.

R-B running back Brad Boelkow ran for 123 yards and two scores in the Rockets’ 29-28 win last week at North Boone.

The Rockets’ offense is similar to Byron’s, and the Cogs will need a better rush defense than when they

Win, and G-K is in the playoffs for the second year in a row. Already having accumulated 41 playoff points, the Cogs will be a lock to get in with a win over the Rockets.

“That goal for the playoffs and making a deep run, that’s still out there for us,” Frederick said. “And that’s the big one.”

Pesky peacocks part of dinner party invite Dear Abby: A former colleague recently moved nearby and sent us an invitation to dinner at her new residence.

She lives in an area that’s populated by wild peacocks, which she knew before she moved there.

A condition of her invitation is that we (my spouse and I) agree to use a type of high-powered water gun to shoot at the peacocks from her balcony while we are visiting. I understand that these birds can be messy (I assume from their droppings). However, we find conditioning the visit upon our willingness to shoot water at the birds disconcerting.

Because we find this

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips activity distasteful, should we decline and state why, or accept but make clear that we won’t participate in the fowl-watering activity? How does one handle this tactfully? – No Fowl Play in Florida Dear No Fowl Play: Because your former colleague invited you with the expressed understanding her guests will be expected to “fowl-water,” which would make you uncomfortable, politely decline the invitation. If you feel you must pass judgment on shoot-

ing at the peacocks, all you need to say is you prefer not to shoot at any creature that can’t defend itself.

Dear Abby: I have been married for 30 years and have no children. Now in my mid50s, I realize what a negative force my husband has been in my life.

I was not allowed to have children, and over the years I have lost all family and most friends because he didn’t like anyone. He constantly badmouths the town we live in – it’s my hometown – and any interests I have. He hasn’t worked in 10 years since closing his business.

I wake up every morning with the thought of just

trying to make it through one more day. I am a shell of the person I once was, and don’t know where to turn. Please help. – Nameless in the USA Dear Nameless: Get out of the house and out of isolation.

Volunteering in your community will give you an escape from your husband’s negativity and an opportunity to meet others who are involved in positive activities. He won’t like it, but do it anyway. If you do, it will save your sanity.

Dear Abby: At a wedding reception I attended recently, the mother of the bride gave a sales pitch for her insurance company. She concluded with the statement that she would now be able to write this off

on her taxes.

Was this legitimate? She had numerous clients there, as well as prospective ones, and gifts with corporate logos for them stashed in the bathroom. – Taken Aback in California Dear Taken Aback: Talk about a “marriage of convenience.” How unbelievably tacky! Actually, my tax experts tell me that she’s not entitled to write the reception off because the PREDOMINANT MOTIVE of the occasion was not business.

Let’s hope the IRS doesn’t get wind of it.

Strength training builds up bone and muscle Dear Dr. K: I was recently diagnosed with osteopenia.

My doctor advised strength training because it can help slow bone loss. How does it do that?

Dear Reader: Osteopenia is a thinning of the bones. It is often a precursor to osteoporosis, a more severe thinning of the bones. Osteoporosis puts you at risk for disabling, and sometimes debilitating, fractures.

Bones are filled with cells.

Some cells build up new bone; other cells tear down old bone. In most people, those two processes are in good balance. But in some people, particularly as they grow older, more bone gets torn down

Strength-training exercises build muscle by harnessing resistance – that is, an opposing force that muscles must strain against. Resistance can be supplied by your than built up. body weight, free weights, To reverse that imbalance, elasticized bands or specialand the osteopenia that comes ized machines.

es that could cause thin bones to fracture. For example, I tell my patients to protect their spine. This means avoiding activities and exercises that require you to bend your spine, especially to lift a weight. Bowling is a common example.

I also advise my patients to avoid free-weight exercises and machines that put added stress on the spine. These include some leg-press machines, leg raises performed lying down, and squats done with weight bars resting on the shoulders.

A person with thinning spine bones needs to do strength-training exercises that build strong core muscles, such as the standing side

bridge. (I’ve put a description and illustration of this exercise on my website, AskDoctorK.com.)

I don’t know your age, but it’s possible that you’re thinking as you read this: “I’m too old to do strength training, to work out with machines and weights and such.” That’s wrong. Supervised weight training in older people builds muscle and bone.

Finally, don’t stop with strength training. Add a few balance exercises to your routine to reduce your risk of falls.

Plenty of handsome, charming men in DeKalb Dr. Wallace: I’m 19 and my boyfriend is 21 and in the Army, stationed overseas.

It’s been three months since he left and I won’t see him for a long time, so we agreed to write to each other as often as we can.

Fine-tuning your communication skills and taking decisive action will serve you well and alter your position dramatically.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – You will be plagued by emotional uncertainty. Don’t get flustered by the changes going on around you. Get a feel for the situation by carefully watching what others do and say.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – It would be a good idea to stop trying to direct others to do what you want. Concentrate on your own future and leave others to their own devices.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t let other people take advantage of your good nature. Charity and helpfulness are admirable qualities, but don’t assume that everyone has your best interest at heart.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – One of your ideas will pay off.

Beware of people who are stretching the truth in order to persuade you to make a commitment. Something quite unexpected will come your way.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will have a better understanding of what your friends, family or loved ones want.

Relationships will take an intriguing direction, allowing you greater comfort and freedom.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – A sticky situation will end up being beneficial. Take advantage of a change that allows you to make a positive move. Hesitation will be the enemy, so act fast.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Your emotions will be close to the surface, making judgment calls difficult. Deep discussions are best avoided until you feel levelheaded. Keep situations plain and simple.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Don’t let anger get in your way.

Remaining calm while others are upset will give you the upper hand, allowing you to get things done your way.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – You can form a successful partnership if you engage in serious talks with people who share your vision and insight. A love connection will take an interesting turn.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Someone will have trouble understanding your motives. You will face firm opposition if the people you are dealing with doubt your ability to get good results.

Prepare to move forward on your own.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – A different career path will beckon you. Talk to people already moving in a similar direction. There is a wealth of knowledge available, so study what is most meaningful to you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – It’s time to take a leap of faith. Don’t let fear or procrastination dominate you. If you see a professional opportunity, take the plunge. Over time, you will realize your choice is perfect for you.

my skills. Even though I have that book and a letter saying I was a semifinalist in a poetry-writing contest, I’m not sure I’m a noteworthy poet yet. Where can I send my material to find out? – Abigail, Ames, Iowa Abigail: Becoming a published poet may happen only after years of effort and perseverance, and can be as much a matter of luck – submitting just what an editor happens to be looking for – as talent.

By all means keep trying, but also show your work to high school or college English instructors, who can tell you if you’re on the right track and offer suggestions. Even more importantly, take a writing class or two or three.

The best encouragement I can five you is that if you love writing, you’re doing something right. To worry whether or not you’re a good poet is sort of missing the point. What you have to do is keep growing and becoming a better poet, which will happen only if you keep writing and showing your work to as many people as possible and keep reading the work of other poets.

I agree that some poetry contests that require you to pay to be published can be capitalizing on some people’s willingness to take the shortcut to success.

Abnormal can be right Cory Doctorow, a Canadian blogger, journalist and science-fiction author, claims, “Abnormal is so common, it’s practically normal.”

If abnormal is normal, does that make normal abnormal? In bridge we have lots of normal bids and plays, but the deals in which we must produce the abnormal is one reason why the game has kept its appeal.

In today’s deal, what is the abnormal play? South is in four spades. West leads the heart two in answer to his partner’s opening bid.

North just shut his eyes and blasted into four spades.

He hoped that even if his heart king was worthless, his partner would have a chance to rake in 10 tricks.

Assuming East has the heart ace (surely West would not have underled the ace), South starts with three top losers: one spade and two hearts. He must avoid also losing a diamond trick. Who has the diamond king?

If West, the contract is going down when East shifts to that suit after taking two heart tricks. Therefore, declarer must hope that East has that key card. Then the defenders can establish a diamond trick only if West leads the suit through dummy’s ace. South must keep West off lead.

Declarer must play low from the dummy at trick one, not make the normal play of putting up the king on the off chance that West has underled the ace.

East wins with his jack and cashes the ace, but then has no winning continuation. Declarer drives out the spade ace, draws the rest of the trumps, and runs the clubs to discard his diamond loser. He takes four spades, one diamond and five clubs.

ArtSmarts helps students express creativity

By KATIE DAHLSTROM kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com

Katie Dahlstrom - kdahlstrom@shawmedia.com

Tate Mangum, 12 and Matt Haeseker, 12, make puppets during ArtSmarts, a club that Cynthia de Seife, an adjunct instructor with Kishwaukee College hosts weekly at Clinton Rosette Middle School.

CHURCH BRIEFS Moses’ Basket sets fundraiser at Culver’s “Having A Heart For Babies” – Moses ’ Basket, a ministry of DeKalb Wesleyan Church will host a fundraiser and diaper drive at Culver’s, 1200 DeKalb Ave., Sycamore, from 5 to 8 p.m.

Monday.

Moses’ Basket will receive 10 percent of all sales during those hours along with a matching grant from Thrivent Financial to help support this Community Missions Driven Program.

For every package of diapers attendees donate, they will receive a token good for one scoop of custard.

In 2013, Huggies donated a quarter million diapers to Moses’ Basket and the group has distributed every last one of them. Free diapers were handed out every Tuesday night helping an average of 200 parents per week for five months in the DeKalb County area. In order to continue this program, more diapers are needed.

Moses’ Basket is an outreach to dads and moms who cannot afford the basic needs for their newborn to age 2. The ministry is a partnership of community churches and organizations. To donate items, call 815-758-0671 or email mosesbasketdwc@ gmail.com.

Vegas fun at St. Mary’s fundraiser St. Mary’s Catholic School in Sycamore will host its annual St. Mary’s Casino Night & Auction from 6 to 11 p.m. Nov. 8 at St. Mary’s Memorial Hall in Sycamore.

The event includes a Vegas-style buffet, casino games, raffles, and silent and live auctions. Auction package highlights include passes to the Chicago Botanical Garden, Shedd Aquarium, Zanies Comedy Club, Discovery Center and DuPage Children’s Museums, Ravinia, tickets to the Chicago Bulls and Kane County Cougars, numerous gift cards and fine items including jewelry, framed art, quilts, gym passes, admission for family fun and much more.

St. Mary’s Casino Night & Auction is the annual fundraiser to benefit St. Mary’s School of Sycamore and religious education at St. Mary’s Church.

Sponsors are Taxco Restaurant Too, NB&T, and All Around Pumping Service. The event is also made possible with the support of American Midwest Bank, Origami Owl, A Premier Realty Group, Sycamore Family Dentistry, Vermeer Midwest, Pizza Villa, Hayes Body Shop, Marmion Academy, Sexson Orthodontics, Pardridge Insurance, Dan and Miriam Sieve, and Coldwell Banker Megan Martin.

This event is open to the public. Tickets are available for

$25 in advance or $30 at the door. Contact Kammy Forsberg at kamilla23@comcast.net for tickets or for more information.

‘Acts of Faith’ author to speak at NIU Monday In an era of global religious conflict, the United States is the most religiously diverse nation in human history and the most religiously devout nation in the West. Will faith be a barrier of division or a bridge of cooperation?

Eboo Patel, author of “Acts of Faith: The Story of an American Muslim, the Struggle for the Soul of a Generation” and “Sacred Ground: Pluralism, Prejudice, and the Promise of America” will address this complex question at Northern Illinois University during his one-day visit with students, faculty staff, and community members next week.

He will speak at 6:30 p.m.

Monday in the Carl Sandburg Auditorium of the Holmes Student Center. His remarks also will emphasize how members of the NIU and DeKalb communities can come together on the common ground of service to make a difference.

Patel is founder and executive director of the Chicago-based Interfaith Youth Core, which aims to “catalyze, resource and network this generation of interfaith leaders, and watch them change the world.”

Accordingly, he is expected to speak on the value of Ubuntu (human kindness) and the power of individuals from all background in service together.

Patel’s presentation is free and open to the public. Nonperishable food items and paper goods will be accepted at the door; donations will benefit the Huskie Student Food Pantry, located at Grace Place, 401 Normal Road. A book-signing will follow at 7:30 p.m. in the Gallery Lounge of the student center.

For more information, call 815-753-0028 or email fsye@ niu.edu.

DeKALB – With five siblings at home, Taylor Olson cherishes the afternoons she spends drawing at Clinton Rosette Middle School.

Olson, a 14-year-old eighth-grader, is a member of the school’s ArtSmarts club, which meets for an hour on Wednesdays. During that hour, students draw, make origami, perform skits or do whatever other art project their adviser, Cynthia de Seife, might suggest.

“Art’s just one of my favorite things,” Olson said. “I can’t really do it at home and I’m in choir so I can’t take art. If you’re kind of stressed or need some way to vent, it’s nice to draw.”

De Seife, an adjunct professor of education at Kishwaukee College, started the club in January. Like the students, de Seife also relishes her time at ArtSmarts. The club, she said, allows her to fulfill her desire to introduce school-age chil-

every Wednesday since he moved to DeKalb in the beginning of the school year. On Wednesday, Mangum convinced his friend and fellow seventh-grade student Matt Haeseker, 12, to join the club.

“I just like to be creative,” Haeseker said while designing a lizard puppet.

The club also will support the education of Kishwaukee College students. After attending the Arts and Passion-Driven Workshop at Harvard’s graduate school of education, de Seife developed an honors track for the college courses she teaches. Those classes include Introduction to Education and Art in Elementary Education, both courses for would-be teachers.

Next spring, students in the honors program of her classes will attend ArtSmarts to gain firsthand experience incorporating art into education.

“This is pure arts activity,” de Seife said. “This is my passion and this is what I want to do.”

Students take part in Heavy Metal Tour More than 110 students from area high schools toured businesses in DeKalb and Ogle counties in the second annual Heavy Metal Tour on Oct. 3.

In the spotlight this time were Algus Packaging, CHS (formerly Illinois River Energy), Clark-Dietrich Building Systems, CST, Driv-Lok, Greenlee/Textron, Ideal Industries and Sycamore Precision. The companies opened their doors to the students for plant tours, questions and answers regarding career opportunities and gave them a detailed look at what modern industry looks like.

Following the tours, the students visited the Career Technologies Wing at Kishwaukee College to connect their new found career paths to supportive educational opportunities. Welding technology, fabrication labs, automated engineering technologies and electronics were highlighted.

Heavy Metal Tour II is a local effort to attract attention to area manufacturers supporting the DeKalb/Ogle Workforce Development Consortium. In its second year, the tour was closely aligned with National Manufacturing Day, a grassroots movement of manufacturers dedicated to overcoming the skills gap in the United States. More than 1,500 companies nationwide participated on
