Rauner-Dems rift continues State government conflict a war of words now, but consequences looming

By SARA BURNETT and JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – The increasingly nasty feud between Gov. Bruce Rauner and majority Democrats is about to spill from the Illinois statehouse to voters’ mailboxes and TVs, as the rookie Republican unleashes a multimillion-dollar ad campaign against lawmakers he claims are intransigent over the state budget and his political agenda.

The entrenched, more experienced Democratic leaders – who said they were warned by Rauner of the coming campaign

– began pushing back Sunday.

Senate President John Cullerton said GOP lawmakers are being “lured away by the siren song of Gov. Rauner’s campaign cash,” hindering compromise.

“We find ourselves trying to work with a governor who continues to run campaigns rather than the state that elected him,” the Chicago Democrat said. “Rather than roll up your sleeves and work on solutions, he’s dictating demands and threatening those who defy him.”

Majority Democrats in the General Assembly approved a $36.3 billion spending plan they said preserves Rauner-pro-

posed cuts to essential programs. They acknowledge it’s $3 billion short on revenue and want Rauner to agree to a tax increase.

A solemn Rauner spoke to Gov. Bruce reporters SunRauner day evening as the session officially came to an end, calling that plan “phony” and warning of a “rough summer,” but reiterating his pledge to meet anywhere, any day to resolve the differences.

He gave no ground on his insistence that Chicago Dem-

ocrats Cullerton and House Speaker Michael Madigan take up his proposed changes, including a property tax freeze and less-costly workers’ compensaMichael tion insurance Madigan for employers, which he said would produce more state revenue by making Illinois more competitive. He derided the notion that Democrats’ spending push reflects a desire to help the middle class.

“They are not about the middle class. They are about

the political class in Illinois,” Rauner said. “This is a battle for the future of Illinois, and it pits the political class against the people.”

With Democrats dismissing Rauner’s agenda as favoring CEOs over workers and refusing to link discussion of it to budget negotiations, the standoff amounts to a war of words right now. But with no deal by mid-July, state employee paychecks would be disrupted.

If it drags into August, public schools won’t have the money they need to open their doors.

Both leaders said they’ll bring their members back to Springfield in the next 10 days

– and lawmakers won’t be reimbursed for mileage or daily expenses. It was unclear what business they’d conduct, but returning to the Capitol allows Democrats to blunt criticism from Rauner that they’re not interested in negotiating.

Rauner, a multimillionaire who has more than $30 million in campaign bank accounts and easy access to much more, won’t describe the planned media barrage but aides have signaled the main target will be Madigan, the longtime speaker and Illinois Democratic Party chairman.

‘Onto new, exciting things’ Kaneland grads off on their next adventures

Where to go

DeKALB – Brian Motta said it seemed to take forever to finally graduate from Kaneland High School – but there he stood in his black cap and gown Sunday afternoon at the Northern Illinois University Convocation Center.

“It was a long time, but now that it’s here, it was just quick,” he said.

NIU hosted Kaneland High School’s graduating class of about 300 seniors, with family and friends packing the center to see their loved ones begin the next stage of their life.

“The day has finally come,” Principal Jill Maras said, “and it’s time to celebrate the life moments that led to today.”

After the class filed into the auditorium and the presentation of colors and national anthem, graduating class President Allison Van Bogaert welcomed the class of 2015 and their guests – and ended her welcome with one last selfie

DeKALB COUNTY – Volunteers throughout DeKalb County will work with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Summer Food Program to provide free meals to area children in the months ahead.

Erik Jacobsen, communications manager for the Geneva-based Northern Illinois Food Bank, said the effort is part of a federal program designed alleviate hunger in the summer months for children who receive free or reduced-price lunches during the school year.

“The issue surrounds the fact that many kids are on free and reduced lunches during the school year but when the school year lets out, that’s the gap we fill,” he said.

The Northern Illinois Food Bank serves 13 northern Illinois counties, including DeKalb. The county is home to 6,230 students who in the past school year qualified for subsidized meals, Jacobsen said. In DeKalb School District 428, about 60 percent of students received free or reduced-priced lunches this year. Countywide, about one-third did.

Those who qualify to participate in the program include children under age 18 or anyone over 18 who is enrolled in a state-approved educational program for individuals with physical or mental disabilities.

Each meal is USDA approved and includes whole grains and fresh fruits with each meal when possible.

North Korea attempting to woo tourists

By ERIC TALMADGE The Associated Press PYONGYANG, North Korea – If you’re still looking for somewhere exotic to go this summer and don’t mind a vacation that comes with a heavy dose of socialist propaganda and leader worship, North Korea says it’s just the place for you.

Fresh off a drastic, half-year ban that closed North Korea’s doors to virtually all foreigners over fears they would spread the Ebola virus – despite the fact that there were no cases of Ebola reported anywhere in Asia – the country is once again determined to show off its “socialist fairyland” to tourists.

The focus on tourism is the blessing of Kim Jong Un himself and, in typical fashion, officials have set lofty goals in their effort to please their leader.

About 100,000 tourists came to North Korea last year, all but a few thousand of them from neighboring China.

Kim Sang Hak, a senior economist at the influential Academy of Social Sciences, told The Associated Press the North hopes that by around 2017, there will be 10 times as many tourists and that the number will hit 2 million by

The Associated Press NEWPORT, R.I. – A bitter struggle for control over the nation’s oldest synagogue goes to trial this week, with lawyers saying they may use more than 1,000 exhibits dating as far back as 1733.

The congregation that worships at the 250-year-old Touro Synagogue in Newport says its very existence is at stake. The congregation that owns it accuses the Newport congregation of lawlessness for agreeing to sell a pair of ceremonial bells valued at more than $7 million.

The lawsuit and countersuit, brought by the nation’s first Jewish congregation, are being heard in a bench trial beginning today in U.S. District Court in Providence and rely on centuries of history.

Dedicated in 1763, the Touro Synagogue sits on a hill in this seaside town of Colonial homes and cobble-

2020.

Pyongyang’s interest in attracting tourists may sound ironic, or even contradictory, for a country that has taken extreme measures to remain sheltered from the outside world.

But Kim said the push, formally endorsed by Kim Jong Un in March 2013, is seen as both a potentially lucrative revenue stream and a means of countering stereotypes of the country as starving, backward

and relentlessly bleak.

“Tourism can produce a lot of profit relative to the investment required, so that’s why our country is putting priority on it,” he said in a recent interview in Pyongyang, adding that along with scenic mountains, secluded beaches and a seemingly endless array of monuments and museums, the North has another ace up its sleeve – the image that it is simply unlike anywhere else

on Earth.

“Many people in foreign countries think in a wrong way about our country,” Kim said, brushing aside criticisms of its human rights record, lack of freedoms and problems with hunger in the countryside.

“Though the economic sanctions of the U.S. imperialists are increasing, we are developing our economy. So I think many people are curious about our country.”

A bitter battle for control of oldest synagogue in U.S.

stone streets. It is a National Historic Site and has been visited by three presidents: George Washington, Dwight Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy.

In 1790, the congregation received a letter from Washington in which he wrote that the government of the United States “gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance.” The letter, sent before the Bill of Rights was ratified, is held up as an affirmation of the fledgling government’s commitment to religious liberty.

In the years that followed, Jews left the city, and the synagogue closed. Touro’s contents were transferred to the nation’s oldest Jewish congregation in New York, Congregation Shearith Israel, established in 1654.

In the late 1800s, Jews re-established themselves in Newport and began worshipping there again. Congregation Shearith Israel sent the items back, including

two pairs of rimonim (pronounced rih-moh-NEEM’), bells placed on the handles of a Torah scroll. They were made by Myer Myers, among the premier silversmiths of the Colonial era.

Around the turn of the century, there was a lawsuit and struggle for control of Touro. In settling it, the congregation that worships there, Congregation Jeshuat Israel, ultimately signed a lease in 1903 to rent Touro from Congregation Shearith Israel for $1 a year.

The Newport congregation acknowledges in its lawsuit that the New York congregation owns Touro, but argues it holds it in trust for the Newport congregation’s benefit. It wants them removed as a trustee. It also says that it owns the rimonim outright.

The Newport congregation says it decided to sell reluctantly, and only because the congregation, which has around 100 families, needs the money. Although tens of

thousands of visitors come through its doors every year, it says it barely has the money to pay for its expenses. It has tried and failed to raise the money for an endowment, it said.

“Jeshuat Israel is just one unforeseen expense away from financial disaster,” its lawyers wrote in a pretrial filing.

It said it chose to sell to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston because thousands of people would be able to see them.

The museum offered $7.4 million for the bells in 2011. That offer was rescinded amid the ownership dispute.

The Newport congregation said that before the New York congregation “came out of the woodwork” to claim it owned the bells, it had abandoned Touro. It says the last time the New York congregation provided any financial help was likely in 1983, when it gave $100. Before that, it said, the last time was the 1960s.

KishHealth hosts 8th annual 5K race

By AIMEE BARROWS news@daily-chronicle.com

Mary Beth Nolan for Shaw Media

Josh Delao hams it up for a photo after receiving his diploma during the Kaneland High School commencement ceremonies Sunday at NIU Convocation Center.

Kaneland co-valedictorian: ‘Our lives are not going to be perfect’ • KANELAND Continued from page A1 with the entire graduating class with the help of a selfie stick.

Kaneland’s class of 2015 graduated with co-valedictorians this year with two very different back stories.

Jared Murri was the first valedictorian to speak. He moved to Kane County from Keller, Texas, his senior year, and was awarded valedictorian for his academic achievement at both of his high schools. He thanked his fellow students and teachers who were friendly to him in his short time at Kaneland. He plans to attend Brigham Young University after a two-year mission trip to

Sweden.

Fellow valedictorian Madison Jurcenko was someone her classmates “grew up with,” according to Maras’ introduction.

She’s attending the five-year physician’s assistant program at Gannon University in Pennsylvania.

“Our lives are not going to be perfect,” Jurcenko told her fellow graduates. “Life is going to be hard, and it gets even harder. However, that is why it’s called life.”

It took about an hour to read the nearly 300 graduates’ names before the recessional back, and onto the next big thing.

Motta is going to the University of Iowa at some point to learn how to open his own business, but he’s not sure what

kind of business yet.

He said his senior-year highlights were prom and homecoming.

“I had a fun group of people to go with and we partied afterward,” Motta said, “so it was fun.”

Holly Brasfield is heading to the University of Colorado in Colorado Springs, where she has family, to study nursing.

“I love to be active and hiking, biking – there’s lots to do,” she said, adding that it was hard for her to believe she really just graduated from high school.

“It’s hard to really believe that it’s real,” Brasfield said.

“It doesn’t feel real to me right now. It’s exciting. Onto new and exciting things.”

DeKALB – Shortly after he was diagnosed with Type I diabetes almost two years ago, Matthew Rogowski, 30, won his first race at the KishHealth System 5K last year.

And on Saturday, the Pingree Grove resident cruised to his second consecutive victory at the very same race.

“Today, my goal was to get under 18 minutes, and I was just under that,” he said.

“It was a great race, a great course. And the rain felt good.

I always try to push myself, to better my time, and of course I run to keep my blood sugar in check.”

About 300 runners braved a light rain early Saturday to complete the 3.1 mile course in DeKalb. Chris Laurent, race director, said the race is a good way to bring attention to KishHealth’s facility, and to give the community an opportunity to get some exercise.

“We like to promote fitness and wellness, and people can come out and be competitive, or just walk and have fun while engaging in activity,” Laurent said.

Rebecca Schwantes, 34, was the top female finisher with a time of 21:18. The DeKalb resident said she was pleased with her run.

“It got a little humid, but at least it wasn’t hot,” she said.

“Running this race is a fami-

Lynille Steffenhagen, a 38-year-old Sycamore resident who’s originally from South Africa, said she runs at “every opportunity” she can get.

“I have a 9-month-old at home, so this is a good way to get ‘me time,’ ” she said.

Brian Aldridge, of Kings, said he wanted to run this race to get some exercise and also to learn more about proper stretching techniques.

“I’m just getting back into running and I don’t want to get injured,” said Aldridge, 49.

“The goal today is to have a good run and not beat myself up too bad and just have fun.”

Sarah Fellabaum, who works at KishHealth as a physical therapist, volunteered to help out with race

parking. She said she loves to help at any event for the hospital.

“This is for a good cause, and anything we do as a department, I’m eager to help,” she said. “The race gets the hospital’s name out and it’s doing something healthy for the community.”

All the proceeds from the 5K benefit Adventure Works of DeKalb County, which is a nonprofit outdoor behavioral health organization for local youth. It provides an alternative to traditional counseling for kids who are struggling with behavioral, emotional or mental health issues.

“We’re always looking to donate to a local organization, and we thought Adventure Works had a great mission and was a good place for our money to go,” Laurent said.

A look at the indictment of ex-House Speaker Hastert

By MICHAEL TARM and ALAN SCHER ZAGIER The Associated Press CHICAGO – The federal indictment of former House Speaker Dennis Hastert is as notable for the details it excludes as for the allegations that the longtime high school teacher and wrestling coach agreed to pay $3.5 million in hush money to an unidentified person from his past.

Some of the questions and answers about the felony indictment:

The 73-year-old former politician and lobbyist is accused of evading bank regulations by withdrawing $952,000 in increments of less than $10,000 to skirt reporting requirements designed to deter money laundering. He also is charged with lying to the FBI about the reason for the unusual withdrawals. He faces a $250,000 fine and a maximum 5-year prison sentence on

each of the two counts.

WHAT IS THIS REALLY ABOUT? The May 28 indictment details a 2010 agreement between Hastert and a person identified only as “Individual A” to pay millions to “compensate for and conceal (Hastert’s) prior misconduct” against the unnamed individual.

The grand jury indictment notes at the outset that Hastert was a history teacher and coach from 1965 to 1981 in suburban Yorkville, west of Chicago. The other party “has been a resident of Yorkville and has known Hastert for most of Individual A’s life,” the document states.

A person familiar with the allegations told The Associated Press that payments were intended to conceal claims that the Illinois Republican sexually molested someone decades ago. The person spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing, and the al-

“This case is really about lying to the FBI,” he said. “He may not get in trouble for what he did, but for the cover-up.”

Additional details could emerge in court or through a new indictment, but Helfand, who monitors Chicago’s legal scene for an online lawyers referral service, also suggested that such specifics may never become public.

The Washington lobbying firm of Dickstein Shapiro has said that the former GOP leader, who retired from Congress in 2007 after eight years as speaker, no longer works there. He’s also resigned from the boards of Chicago-based CME Group of derivatives exchanges, and a Christian college that had named an academic research center after him. On Sunday, Wheaton College announced that what had been known as the J. Dennis Hastert Center for Economics, Government and Public Policy is now just named after the suburban Chicago school.

STEPHEN RAY PERKINS Born: Aug. 21, 1954 Died: May 30, 2015 Stephen Ray “Stevie” Perkins, age 60, passed away at the DeKalb County Rehab and Nursing Center in DeKalb.

Welcomed into the world on August 21, 1954, in DeKalb, IL, he was the son of Ray “Perk” and Hyla (Varness) Perkins. He left this world into Heaven on May 30, 2015, with his sister by his side.

Born as a “special needs” child with Down Syndrome, his parents were told he wouldn’t live past 30-35 years of age. He proved that wrong living to the age of 60. He

had a full normal life, never being treated “special”, but treated as any other person/sibling. He started school at the age of 6, graduating from Notre Dame Special Ed at the age of 21.

After graduating he became part of the Opportunity House Organization. They gave him skills and knowledge to live on his own for several years and work out in the community as a dishwasher/ bus boy at several local establishments. The latest and last place being the Uptown Restaurant in Sycamore. He traveled with Abel Trex Disabilities Tours to the Wisconsin Dells as well a few other places. After the aging process, didn’t allow him to live in his own apartment anymore, he moved into an OH group home. After not bouncing from Gall Bladder surgery in September 2014, a difficult decision was made to admit him to DCRNC to live out his final life.

Stevie is/was a “Die Hard” Cubs fan, coming by that naturally from his dad “Perk”. Growing up he went to most Sunday home games at Wrigley Field. Seeing his last Cubs game in person as recent as 4 years ago. He is now at peace, watching the Cubs with his Dad, “Go Cubs Go”. His 7 month stay at DCRNC won the hearts of many, in his little antics, smiles, hugs, and stubbornness. His journey to Heaven started Wednesday with his sister by his side, till he took his last breath, something she promised her parents she would do, take care of him till the end and she did.

He is preceded in death by his parents, mom in 1983, and dad in 2004. Both sets of grandparents,

several Aunts, Uncles and Cousins.

He is survived by his loving devoted sister, Marla (Chuck) Cradduck, their two children, Kristi Marie and Todd Christopher (Bridget), whom he loved so much.

Stevie would say they were “my niece, my nephew”, along with 5 beautiful great nieces and nephews, Kameron Austin 8, Brooklyn Rae 7, Makenzie Rayne 4, Jordan Jean “JJ” 4, and Devon Ryan 2.

Marla would like to THANK the dedicated and caring staff (to many to mention individually) at DCRNC for the phenomenal job they did caring for Stevie from admission till he took that last breath. Some days he was a handful to say the least. Being admitted into Hospice care, the love and support goes above and beyond, they added that “Extra Special” last of life touch for which I am forever grateful. Tanya RN and Mike CAN where beside us through the whole journey, Family and Friends the journey is over, I will miss him more than I can say, but life goes on and I can’t say “THANK YOU” enough.

Funeral service will be held on Wednesday, June 3, 2015, at 7:00 p.m. in the Ronan-Moore-Finch Funeral Home with Pastor Joseph Gastiger officiating. Visitation will be held on Wednesday, June 3, 2015, from 5:00 p.m. till the time of the service in the funeral home.

Texas still suffering after devastating floods

Surveillance powers set to lapse with no deal in Senate

Kerry breaks leg in bicycle crash; returning to U.S.

By BRADLEY KLAPPER The Associated Press GENEVA – U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry broke his leg in a bicycle crash Sunday after striking a curb and scrapped the rest of a four-nation trip that included an international conference on combating the Islamic State group. He planned to return to the United States on Monday.

Kerry was staying overnight in a Swiss hospital overnight as a precaution, State Department spokesman John Kirby said, before flying to Boston for further treatment at Massachusetts General Hospital.

“The secretary continues to be in great spirits and active,” Kirby said. “He has done a range of phone calls including with the president?”

Kerry, 71, fractured his right femur after crashing his bike near Scionzier, France, about 40 kilometers southeast of the Swiss border.

Paramedics and a physician were on the scene with his motorcade at the time and provided him with immediate attention. They quickly decided to call in a helicopter to transport him to Geneva’s main medical center, HUG, where X-rays confirmed the extent of his injury.

“The secretary is stable and

The Associated Press LINCOLN, Neb. – What’s up with Nebraska?

The state is among the nation’s most conservative, with Republicans controlling all of state government. But by the time the legislative session had ended last week, lawmakers had repealed the death penalty, legalized licenses for certain immigrants brought to the country illegally as children, raised the state fuel tax and come close to approving a medical marijuana bill.

The liberal-leaning list of accomplishments has left some shaking their heads, but others say it’s not unprecedented in a state with a strong populist streak and an unusual legislative system that gives power to individual lawmakers at the expense of political parties.

The Legislature – which has only one house – is comprised of 35 Republicans, 13 Demo-

Kerry was flown to Hospital University Geneva and is being evaluated. never lost consciousness, his injury is not life-threatening and he is expected to make a full recovery,” Kirby said in an earlier statement.

The Dauphine Libere, a local newspaper, said Kerry fell near the beginning of his ride to the famed mountain pass called the Col de la Colombiere, which has been a route for the Tour de France more than a dozen times.

Right around the time of his fall, a Twitter feed about local driving conditions warned of the danger due to gravel along the pass. But U.S. officials said there was no gravel on the road where the accident occurred.

According to the newspaper, some Haute Savoie officials were with Kerry at the time, including the head of the region.

Kerry’s regular plane flew back from Geneva to the United States on Sunday, carrying much of his staff and reporters who had accompanied him on the trip.

The secretary of state planned to board a plane later in the day with special medical equipment “to ensure he remains comfortable and stable throughout the flight,” Kirby said. But on the advice of doctors, Kerry remained in Geneva’s hospital another night.

“We act at times more like judges than a Legislature.”

crats and one independent, but, unlike other states, the party in the majority doesn’t control the session. The speaker sets the agenda and designates certain bills as priorities but doesn’t decide whether a bill makes it to the floor, and parties can’t exert discipline over how senators vote. The setup forces lawmakers to build coalitions based on shared beliefs, regional interests or agreements to support one another’s bills.

Further, senators say the Legislature’s size separates it from conservative powerhouses like Texas. With 49 members, Nebraska’s Legislature is the nation’s smallest. Senators

form friendships that transcend party lines, in an atmosphere that one lawmaker likens to a coffee shop.

“There are a lot of places like that out in rural Nebraska,” said Sen. Laura Ebke, a Republican elected last year.

“The same crowd comes in every day, they complain about the same things, they argue about the same things and then they’re friends.”

Speaker of the Legislature Galen Hadley pointed to the death penalty vote: After a divisive and emotional debate on the floor, senators on both sides of the issue went out for a beer.

“We act at times more like judges than a Legislature,” said Hadley, a Republican. “Every new bill is like a new case, and just as every judge can hear the evidence and make their own decision, every senator can hear a bill and decide whether they’re going to support it or not.”

Radogno: Democrats can’t compromise said. “It’s a different dynamic now.”

Before adjourning Sunday, the Legislature also approved a measure to lower Chicago’s payments to its police and fire pension plans for each of the next five years. Republicans criticized it as irresponsible, but Democrats said it would help stabilize the funds and avoid a huge tax increase for Chicago residents.

Lawmakers also sent a measure to Rauner’s desk to allow hunting and trapping of bobcats.

WASHINGTON – Elfriede Rinkel’s past as a Nazi concentration camp guard didn’t keep her from collecting nearly $120,000 in American Social Security benefits.

Rinkel admitted to being stationed at the Ravensbrueck camp during World War II, where she worked with an attack dog trained by the SS, according to U.S. Justice Department records. She immigrated to California and married a German-born Jew whose parents had been killed in the Holocaust.

She agreed to leave the U.S.

in 2006 and remains the only woman the Justice Department’s Nazi-hunting unit ever initiated deportation proceedings against. Yet after Rinkel departed, the U.S. Social Security Administration kept paying her widow benefits, which began after her husband died, because there was no legal basis for stopping them until late last year.

Rinkel is among 133 suspected Nazi war criminals, SS guards, and others that may have participated in the Third Reich’s atrocities who received $20.2 million in Social Security benefits, according to a report to be released lat-

er this week by the inspector general of the Social Security Administration. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the report.

The payments are far greater than previously estimated and occurred between February 1962 and January 2015, when a new law called the No Social Security for Nazis Act kicked in and ended retirement payments for four beneficiaries. The report does not include the names of any Nazi suspects who received benefits. But the descriptions of several of the beneficiaries match legal records detailing Rinkel’s case and others.

The White House backs the House bill. White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said in a statement: “The Senate took an important – if late – step forward tonight. We call on the Senate to ensure this irresponsible lapse in authorities is as short-lived as possible.

On a matter as critical as our national security, individual senators must put aside their partisan motivations and act swiftly.”

But the Senate adjourned without final action on the bill after Paul asserted his prerogative under Senate rules to delay a final vote for a couple of days.

“This is what we fought the revolution over, are we going to so blithely give up our freedom? ... I’m not going to take it anymore,” Paul declared on the Senate floor, as supporters wearing red “Stand With Rand” T-shirts packed the spectator gallery.

Nebraska showing independent streak

By GRANT SCHULTE

WASHINGTON – The National Security Agency is losing its authority to collect Americans’ phone records in bulk, after GOP Sen. Rand Paul stood in the way of extending the fiercely contested program in an extraordinary Sunday Senate session.

But that program and several other post-Sept. 11 counter-terror measures look likely to be revived in a matter of days. With no other options, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, in an about-face, reluctantly embraced a Housepassed bill that would extend the anti-terror provisions that expire Sunday at midnight, while also remaking the bulk phone collections program.

Although the lapse in the programs may be brief, intelligence officials warned that it could jeopardize Americans’ safety and amount to a win for terrorists. But civil liberties

groups applauded as Paul, who is running for president, forced the expiration of the once-secret program made public by NSA contractor Edward Snowden, which critics say is an unconstitutional intrusion into Americans’ privacy.

The Senate voted 77-17 to move ahead Rand Paul on the Housepassed bill, the USA Freedom Act, which only last weekend fell three votes short of the 60 needed to advance in the Senate. For McConnell, it was a remarkable retreat after objecting ferociously that the House bill would make the bulk phone collections program dangerously unwieldy by requiring the government to search records maintained by phone companies.

“It’s not ideal but, along with votes on some modest amendments that attempt to ensure the program can ac-

it) in the public imagination. It mostly instructs future Democratic Congresses to be a little more diligent about proofreading next time.

But if the law’s opponents convince the public that Obamacare’s defeat in court stems from a fundamental feature of the law – in this case, a surreptitious attempt to force the states to adopt a liberal agenda – then conservatives will have accomplished more than undercutting Obamacare. They also will have helped delegitimize it, supporting the view that government can’t address inequality without screwing something up.

Of course, which side wins this debate is separate from which side can lay a stronger claim to the facts. The reporting on what Congress actually had in mind is by now exhaustive, and it includes an article this week by the New York Times’ Robert Pear, in which even the Republicans involved in writing the law said nobody intended to block subsidies to states that didn’t build their own exchanges.

Whether that reporting is enough to settle the debate won’t be clear until after the court’s ruling. If the government loses, people who haven’t had much reason to care about health- care politics will be left wondering who to blame for taking their coverage away. That’s when the fight about congressional intent – and who we have to thank for King v. Burwell – will morph from an argument among wonks into something more significant.

• Christopher Flavelle writes editorials on health care, economics and taxation for Bloomberg View.

Shocking sloppiness won’t doom health reforms How many politicians, aides, lobbyists, lawyers, insurance moguls, professional groups and interns – both the political and medical kind – agonized over the details in the Affordable Care Act? The number is big.

But despite thousands of hands in the kitchen, the final product included four words that cast doubt on a cornerstone of the reforms – subsidies for those buying coverage on federal health insurance exchanges. Unbelievable.

Die-hard foes of the reforms have weaponized those words as a means to kill the law. They argue in the Supreme Court case King v. Burwell that specifically offering subsidies for plans bought on exchanges “established by the State” means no help for those going to federal exchanges.

Since the program started, low- and middle-income Americans have been receiving tax credits for coverage on both types of exchanges. Almost everyone assumes that’s how it’s supposed to be.

Take away subsidies for federal exchanges and only the sickly will join it. The economic structure underpinning guaranteed coverage will collapse as premiums charged for plans on federal exchanges soar and the healthy stay away in droves.

The plaintiffs, although they come from the right, are doing their Republican colleagues no favor. You see, when the Affordable Care Act created federal exchanges in states that had not set up their own, leaders

VIEWS Froma Harrop in Republican-controlled states could noisily defy President Barack Obama while taking few political risks. They could refuse to set up state exchanges knowing that their constituents would enjoy subsidized coverage on the federal exchanges.

Lose those subsidies and Republican politicians are going to have a lot of angry people on their hands. Some 7.5 million Americans receive subsidies on federal exchanges.

Hypocrisy now crashes over the Republicans’ wall of opposition to the Affordable Care Act. Politicians are currently rewriting the story of their obstruction of a law that they dread could come apart.

An exasperating example is Olympia Snowe, a former senator from Maine who fancies herself a moderate Republican.

During the battle for the bill’s passage, she strung Obama along for months, pretending that she might provide him at least one Republican vote. (Why Obama indulged these stalling tactics ... perhaps his memoirs will tell.)

Anyhow, Snowe recently commented that the little words at the heart of the Supreme Court case were unintended. “Why would we have wanted to deny people subsidies?” she said. “It was not their fault

if their state did not set up an exchange.”

So why did she vote against the bill?

She also railed against “Obamacare” as a “government-run health care system,” not that this was the case. Until Snowe left the Senate in 2013, she worked with her party to undercut the reforms.

But get this: At the time of the bill’s writing, Snowe proposed letting Americans buy cheaper drugs from Canada. It was OK, apparently, for a foreign government to help struggling Mainers obtain health care but not for their own.

One expects the health reforms to survive this latest assault. The best outcome would be the Supreme Court’s confirming that the words were a mistake and that yes, subsidies for the federal health exchange are legal.

If the court says no, politicians in states relying on federal exchanges could swing into action and set up some form of state exchange. And the Obama administration would probably make it easy for them.

The bipartisan takeaway here is the appalling state of American, governance.

We now hear from all sides that omission of subsidies for the federal exchanges was “sloppy,” “careless,” “inadvertent,” “a drafting error.” Actually, it was inexcusable. But let’s move on.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

A favorite refrain of conservative Republicans in discussing the mélange of troubles afflicting America’s urban areas is reference to the undeniable fact these areas have been managed “for 50 years”

by Democratic administrations. Republicans ask blacks and Latinos why they continue to vote for Democrats while things keep getting worse.

It’s an interesting question but doesn’t seem to change the political equation among needy populations.

Maybe they sense another undeniable truth: If Republicans had been in charge, conditions probably would be no better.

This is not an indictment of Republicans. It’s recognition of the persistent malaise that afflicts the lower rungs of society. That blacks, Latinos and poor people in general persistently live lives of despair is beyond effective correction in political party platforms. The partisan argument goes something like this: Republican: What these people need are jobs. Republican policies are designed to boost the economy and create more jobs.

Get government out of the way, and the blooming economy will lift all boats.

Democrat: For reasons beyond their control, disadvantaged populations need society’s help. Government is the only agency for this.

During the Great Depression in the 1930s, we saw the fruits of abandonment.

Welfare is no long-term answer to individual problems but is an essential stopgap while other government programs help people upgrade skills necessary to move up the ladder.

Neither of these arguments provides a solution, which depends in large part on personal efforts beyond the scope of government.

Both parties will agree but quickly revert to form, picking at each other over ethereal “solutions.”

That said, we must keep digging, trying to improve education, relations between police and neighbors, voter involvement and all the rest. As our population becomes ever more diverse, challenges become more difficult.

Frustration will continue in distraught populations where too many members fail to learn the wholesome lessons of life necessary for escape.

No matter which party holds office, governance in low-income jurisdictions will be hard and frustrating.

Much as provider classes might deplore the prospect, we will have to share the wealth even though beneficiaries sometimes fail to respond as they should. If trouble tears up the ghetto, we aren’t immune simply by moving behind the gates.

BASEBALL: CLASS 4A DEKALB REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Barbs win rain-shortened regional title game

By JOHN BUTKUS jbutkus@shawmedia.com DeKALB – The bad weather that threatened all day and postponed other games across the area finally showed up in the sixth inning of DeKalb’s baseball game against Rockford East.

Fortunately for the Barbs, they were winning 3-2 at the time the game was called, giving them the Class 4A DeKalb Regional title.

The Barbs earned their fifth straight victory Saturday afternoon in sloppy field conditions that caused several delays while the grounds crew worked to maintain the field.

Although the field conditions worsened as the game progressed, Barbs starting pitcher Zach Moan found his groove as the game went on.

Moan pitched 4⅓ innings while giving up six hits, two runs and striking out five. Moan was pulled after giving up two walks and a single in the top of the fifth inning after an ap-

Saturday’s championship (1) DeKalb 3, (2) Rockford East 2, (6 inn.)

• DeKalb advances to the Cary-Grove Sectional parent injury.

“My fastball was OK, but my curveball was really working,” Moan said. “It helped that it was a little wet out there in the beginning, so I had a good grip on the ball and I was just trying to throw strikes.”

Rockford East jumped ahead of DeKalb in the top of the first inning after four batters reached base consecutively, scoring two runs. However, the Barbs gained those two runs back after five batters reached base in the bottom of the inning, including

an RBI single by third baseman Jake Kuykendall.

Kuykendall went 2 for 3 and recorded his second triple in as many games.

“The pitcher was throwing the ball outside, and I just tried to take it to opposite field,” Kuykendall said.

“I got a good piece of the ball and the centerfielder fell down, so that helped me out, too.”

The Barbs (19-16) struggled at times as they moved through the conference schedule this year– finishing 1-11 in the Northern Illinois Big 12 East – but they got hot at the right time.

“I told the kids you got to be excited,” DeKalb coach Justin Kec said. “We earned ourselves another game and another two practices and, hopefully, we can be successful on Wednesday.”

DeKalb will play in the sectional semifinal Wednesday in Cary-Grove against the winner of today’s Jacobs Regional final between Jacobs and Cary-Grove.

Hooker posts two top-5 finishes; Kaneland’s Walker wins pole vault title Kaneland pole vault champs

By JESSE SEVERSON jseverson@shawmedia.com CHARLESTON – A pair of medals hung around the neck of Sycamore senior sprinter Dion Hooker.

But for Hooker, they were the wrong color.

While Kaneland sophomore pole vaulter Danny Walker was the only area athlete to win a state championship, Hooker was visibly disappointed after finishing third in the 100-meter dash and fourth in the 200 at the Class 2A state meet Saturday at Eastern Illinois University’s O’Brien Stadium.

“I got out to an all right start (in the way that I am, I’m really competitive,” Hooker said after the 100. “For the 100), but I didn’t finish the way me, it sort of felt like it was first place I’d like to,” said Hooker, who will run for Illinois State University next or nothing.”

didn’t come out on top.”

Right before Hooker’s 100 race, the meet was delayed about two hours because of lightning in the area. While the time off was difficult, Hooker said it wasn’t an excuse for his third-place finish.

“It was definitely hard to get yourself psyched up to race and then have to wait so long, but everybody in the race had to do it, too,” he said.

While Hooker came into the day with a state title already to his name, Walker just wanted to break his personal record in the pole vault for Kaneland.

Dropped to the fourth line in New York, bounced out of the Stanley Cup Final in five games and bought out of his massive contract, Brad Richards hit a low point a little more than a year ago. He hardly was wallowing in selfpity, but like any player in his mid-30s, he had doubts about his career, doubts about his future.

Then Stan Bowman gave him a ring.

“You perk up pretty quick when the Chicago Blackhawks call,” he said.

With the Hawks, Richards saw the perfect opportunity – to play with great players, to reignite his career, to make it right back to the Stanley Cup Final.

So he took a chance and took a one-year deal worth a mere $2 million – when the Rangers hand you $20 million on your way out, it’s easy to accept below-market value – for the opportunity to center Patrick Kane, and make another run at the Cup.

SOFTBALL: CLASS 4A DEKALB REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Barbs lose on a walk-off single

By EDDIE CARIFIO ecarifio@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Jeff Davis doesn’t want to blame the rain for his DeKalb softball team’s 4-3 loss to Huntley on Saturday in the Class 4A DeKalb Regional title game.

SPORTS BRIEFS Ross gets winning hit in 11th as Cubs beat Royals CHICAGO – David Ross did just fine when he swung away.

After failing to execute a safety-squeeze in the ninth inning, Ross hit an RBI single with one out in the 11th inning Sunday that lifted the Chicago Cubs over the Kansas City Royals 2-1.

“I’m playing the game out in my head. I knew what was coming the first time and I didn’t get the bunt down, but luckily I drove that ball into the gap right there at the end,” Ross said with a smile.

The Cubs and Royals split the abbreviated two-game series. Saturday’s game was rained out and will be made up at Wrigley Field during the last week of the regular season.

Ross delivered the fifth game-ending hit of his career, a bases-loaded single just beyond the reach of shortstop Alcides Escobar, who tried to make a sliding, over-theshoulder catch.

Danks lead White Sox to shutout Astros HOUSTON – John Danks pitched an unusual shutout against the Houston Astros on Sunday.

Danks allowed 10 hits, including five extra-base hits, in the White Sox’s 6-0 victory over the Astros.

According to STATS, Danks is the only pitcher to give up at least 10 hits and at least five extra-base hits in a shutout going back to 1914.

The most recent pitcher to give up at least 10 hits in a shutout was Carlos Silva on August 3, 2004, against the Angels.

“I caught some breaks,” Danks said. “I was really just trying to keep the ball in the ballpark and let these guys do work. It worked out.”

Sox manager Robin Ventura made a mound visit in the bottom of the ninth to check on Danks, but left him in to finish the shutout.

“This is a tough lineup that can come back on you with the homer real quick,” Ventura said. “He’s just a bulldog guy that keeps battling.”

With 15 to 20 friends and family in the crowd, Danks (3-4) entered Sunday with an 0-2 record and a 9.28 ERA in two starts at Houston.

He was 0-3 with a 9.15 ERA in four career starts against the Astros, but put it all behind him on Sunday.

HOW THEY MATCH UP Blackhawks: Despite playing against the defensive-minded Wild and the hard-hitting Ducks in the last two rounds, Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews have done what they do best – score in big games. They should have more room to work with against the more freewheeling Lightning. That also bodes well for Patrick Sharp and Marian Hossa, who have just four goals each. The Hawks’ depth at forward is unrivaled, with three legit scoring lines and a shutdown fourth line that can be a threat, too.

Blackhawks: Joel Quenneville is basically down to four defensemen, but they’re awfully good. Duncan Keith has been the Hawks’ best player this postseason. Niklas Hjalmarsson is as reliable a stay-at-home defenseman as there is in the league, Brent Seabrook continues to score big goals, and Johnny Oduya is steady and solid.

Kyle Cumiskey and David Rundblad won’t see a lot of ice time, but their speed and puck-moving ability could be an asset in an uptempo series.

FORWARDS:

ADVANTAGE EVEN DEFENSE:

ADVANTAGE

Blackhawks: Aside from a stellar performance in a sweep of Minnesota, Corey Crawford’s postseason numbers have been pedestrian. He briefly lost his job during the first round after allowing nine goals in four periods against Nashville, and allowed 21 goals in seven games against Anaheim. But he’s a Stanley Cup-winning goalie who tends to come up big when it matters the most – his brilliant efforts in a triple-overtime win and a double-overtime win against Anaheim are proof of that.

GOALTENDING:

Blackhawks: Despite all the talent they have, often playing four future Hall of Famers at once, the Hawks’ power play has been a mess for years. A pair of power-play goals helped put the Ducks away in Game 7, but it’s too inconsistent to count on. A dynamite penalty-killing unit offset the power play in 2013, but this postseason, the Hawks have killed just 75.5 percent of opposing power plays.

SPECIAL TEAMS:

Blackhawks: Joel Quenneville badly outwitted Bruce Boudreau in the conference final, leaving the home coach chasing matchups in Game 7 by immediately pulling off the Toews line after faceoff wins. Quenneville has coached 18 seasons in the NHL and never has missed the playoffs. He’s the third-winningest coach in NHL history, and is going after his third Stanley Cup in six seasons.

Lightning: While the Hawks play mostly four defensemen, the Lightning have been dressing seven, with just 11 forwards. Victor Hedman, 24, is an absolute stud and likely a future Norris winner. His partner, Anton Stralman, was a key player in the Rangers’ run to the Final last year. The rest of the defensive corps is adequate but uninspiring. The Lightning don’t win a lot of 2-1 games – they were the highest-scoring team in the regular season, but were middle-of-the-pack in goals against.

Lightning: At 6-7, Ben Bishop is an inch taller than Scott Darling, and at times looks like he’s filling the whole net.

He came out of nowhere last year to be a Vezina finalist.

He’s been all over the map this postseason, getting chased from the net by both Montreal and New York. But, like Crawford, he’s shown great mental toughness in bouncing back each time. Posting a pair of shutouts in Game 5 and 7 at Madison Square Garden is a remarkable feat. Bishop stopped 65 of 67 shots against the Hawks this season.

Lightning: Like Alex Ovechkin, Stamkos makes a living one-timing power-play goals from the left circle.

Tampa Bay is scoring on 22.2 percent of its power plays in the playoffs, after a 14th-ranked 18.8 percent clip during the regular season. The Lightning have posted better PK numbers than the Hawks in both the regular season and postseason, too, killing 81.2 so far in the playoffs.

Lightning: Jon Cooper has proven a successful, if unorthodox, coach. His decision to use seven defensemen and 11 forwards has worked out, and his move of Stamkos from center to wing busted the star out of his scoring drought. Cooper won an AHL Calder Cup in 2012 and is one of the brightest young coaches in the league.

All he’s missing is the experience.

MARK LAZERUS’ PREDICTION:

Jonathan Toews

In October, I picked the Hawks to beat the Lightning in the Stanley Cup Final. Nothing has changed. The Lightning are fast, they’re skilled, and they’re entertaining to watch.

But as the Ducks learned the hard way, the Hawks almost always find a way. Hawks in Six. – Mark Lazerus,

AMERICAN LEAGUE Minnesota Kansas City Detroit Cleveland White Sox

Richards: Returning to Tampa will be ‘special’ • HAWKS Continued from page B1 Worked out pretty well, eh?

“It’s a great position to be in,” Richards said shortly after the Hawks knocked off the Anaheim Ducks in Game 7 of the Western Conference final Saturday night. “It was so fresh in my mind, losing [in the Final last year], and when I signed, it was totally to try and get right back there.”

In hindsight, things couldn’t have gone much better for Richards. He finished the regular season with 12 goals and 25 assists, filling the longstanding void at second-line center and helping Kane to arguably the best season of his career. Looking far faster and spryer than he did in last year’s playoffs – perhaps less burdened than he was in New York – Richards has two goals and nine assists through the first three rounds.

Richards’ transition from Rangers star and unofficial captain to just another cog in the Hawks machine wasn’t easy. Not at first. Expected to center Kane on the second line, Richards opened the season on the fourth line, playing meager minutes in a minor role. He struggled to adapt to coach Joel Quenneville’s system, and the responsibilities that Hawks centers bear. He had to learn new teammates, new styles of play, new protocols, new staff members and a new city.

And he became a dad just as the season began, his thoughts split between home and hockey, between family and work, between getting his wife settled in a new city and getting himself settled on a new team.

Richards watched the Eastern Conference final with mixed emotions, watching two of his former teams fight it out, wondering if he might be going back to the scene of his greatest triumph, or the scene of his most anguished defeat. As long as he got there, he didn’t really care.

With the Hawks’ salary cap situation, it’s unlikely Richards will be back next season.

But although there’s pain in the past and uncertainty in the future, Richards is simply reveling in the present.

“I grew up [with Tampa Bay] and won a Cup there, and I spent eight years of my career there,” he said. “It’s going to be a pretty special moment.”

Knights, Spartans finish in top 10 • TRACK Continued from page B1 Instead, he won a state championship.

Walker broke his preliminary mark by more than a foot to win the 2A state title with a vault of 14 feet, 9 inches.

“It’s a crazy feeling. I don’t know,” said Walker, whose previous best was 14-0 and had a mark of 13-6 in the preliminaries Friday. “It’s like those commercials with the Stanley Cup players – I don’t know, it’s just a great feeling.

The one thing that hops into your mind is don’t be satisfied. Get after it again.”

For Walker, who broke the Kaneland sophomore record with his pole vault, he will return as the defending state champion. Coming into the meet, however, he said he just wanted to break his old mark of 14 feet.

“I knew I could get higher than 14, so it was just trying to stay focused and separated from the crowd,” he said.

“When I cleared 14, I knew I was feeling pretty good. I just wanted to keep it together. Don’t let it fall apart. It’s like silly putty – just got to keep it together.”

In the 2A 3,200 race, Sycamore senior Adam Millburg ended his career with a fifth-place finish in a time of 9:33.95.

“I knew there were some pretty good runners up front, so I just wanted to stay in the middle of the pack – not go out too hard – and then try to catch one person at a time and hang on as long as I can,” he said. “It hurts but you just got to dig down deep. It felt great to go out on that note.”

Austin Kintz finished fifth in the 2A 1,600 for Kaneland, breaking the school record in 4:19.21.

Kaneland star jumper Ben Barnes, who was the reigning state champion in the long jump, settled for a sixthplace finish in the long jump (21-8½) and eighth in the triple jump (45-9¾).

“It’s very hard (to win state),” Kaneland coach Eric Baron said. “We coach our kids to not wait until senior year.

Go and get it when the chance is there.

He had a bad hamstring injury most of this season and did the most that he could. He’s such a good kid and gave everything for his team.”

Newport in groove before homer • BARBS Continued from page B1 Huntley tied the score in the bottom of the sixth on a home run from Megan Baczewski over the center-field wall. Red Raiders coach Mark Petryniec said Baczewski tweaked her wrist in the semifinal and hadn’t swung a bat in two days.

She finished 1 for 3 and scored the Red Raiders’ first run.

But it was the homer that sparked Huntley.

“I knew I had to get a hit for my team,” Larson said. “Megan’s hit, that was amazing. We all freaked.

But we knew we could get back in it because it was only 3-1, then it was 3-2, then Megan jacked that and it was just crazy.”

Newport was in a groove before the home run, setting down six of seven before the homer. She finished with seven strikeouts and three walks. Three of the four runs she allowed were earned, and she surrendered eight hits.

“When you’re going to face Newport, you know you’re going to have to get a couple of at-bats in,” Petryniec said. “We stressed patience, patience. She’s going to get her strikeouts, so we just need to make the most of our opportunities

Payton Montgomery started the game with a double for the Barbs and scored on a groundout by Newport. The Barbs pushed the lead to two when Newport drove home Montgomery again, this time on a double.

After Huntley scored in the second, DeKalb pushed the lead to 3-1 in the top of the fourth when Montgomery hit a ball between the legs of Huntley shortstop Haley Spannraft – her second error of the inning. That allowed Levine to score, who had reached on a single.

In the bottom of the fourth, three singles pushed a run across for the speedy Red Raiders, who stole six bases.

Even though he said he would have liked to have seen a couple more wins, Davis said he was happy with how the year went.

“I thought it was a great season,” Davis said. “We also shoot for that 20-win plateau, but we had a lot of young kids on our team.

We’re graduating our starters in Claire (Koertner) at second, Tayler at third and (Katie) Schneider behind the plate, the seniors that played the most. ... They’re not going to be easy to replace, but we’ve got a great foundation for the next two years.”

4 ADVICE & PUZZLES • Monday, June 1, 2015 • Section B • Daily Chronicle / Daily-Chronicle.com

Dental care in nursing homes can be difficult to arrange Dear Abby: My mother has Alzheimer’s. She has been in a nursing home for 10 years.

I feel sorry for her because she can’t verbalize her teeth are killing her, but I can see the pain in her face and hear her grind her teeth. When I asked her if her teeth hurt, she rubbed my arm up and down, which I took to mean yes. I asked for her to be seen by a doctor, but we have to wait at least six weeks to see one.

Something I would like people to know is there is little dental care available in nursing homes. Because of improved dental care by the general public, many more people arrive in nursing homes with their teeth intact than they

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips used to. This sounds good, but the problem is patients often refuse to allow anyone to assist them with oral hygiene.

Eventually they may become too frail to withstand the stress of surgery or other treatment that comes with failing teeth.

As I understand it, not many dentists are willing to shoulder the extra challenge of caring for this “difficult” population, or the red tape of getting paid for the care of patients in nursing homes.

It is important to take care of our teeth as we age. Once we or our loved one enters a nursing home, we need to continue their dental hygiene to the best of our abilities. We can help overworked staff by encouraging our loved ones to brush and floss. Take them for a checkup every six months.

I can’t stand a toothache for a day. I wouldn’t wish that pain on anyone, especially someone with Alzheimer’s who cannot ask for help. I wish I had been more aware.

Please let the public know how important this is. – Nan-

people are keeping their teeth longer. We now know a

healthy mouth is important for good overall health, no matter what your age.

In addition to dentists, there are dental hygienists in many states who can provide care for people in nursing homes and homebound patients.

Some specialize in treating the developmentally disabled and “difficult” populations.

Specially licensed dental hygienists can provide services outside of the dental office in the states that allow it, and can refer the patient to a dentist for further service.

In the United States, individual states determine the scope of practice for providers, which includes what types of services dental hygienists

wouldn’t believe it until there was a scientific study of the question. The problem was none of my colleagues seemed interested in doing the study, because “everyone knows that hot flashes just last a few years.”

That’s how important discoveries don’t get made, and people suffer as a result.

Thankfully, someone finally did the study, and the textbooks are in for a change.

The data were collected from a long-term (13 years thus far) women’s health study. The study focused on 1,449 women who were asked every year about having hot flashes and night sweats.

Half of the women reported symptoms for more than

seven years. The younger they were when symptoms started, the longer they tended to last.

More than half of women who began having hot flashes when they still were having periods had symptoms for nearly 12 years or longer. If symptoms started only after menopause had begun, they lasted about three years.

To be included in this study, women had to have had frequent symptoms. So it’s possible women with less frequent symptoms would have reported having them for fewer years.

In other words, it may not be that half of all women entering menopause continue to have hot flashes seven years later. But the study shows that

may provide in that state.

Several states are working to expand their oral care workforce and improve access to care – in part to meet the growing aging population who are retaining their teeth.

In West Virginia, dental hygienists are permitted to deliver care in nursing homes and a variety of other settings.

If you have additional questions, the American Dental Hygienists’ Association (adha.org) can provide further state-specific information on this subject.

Where is the Menopausal hot f lashes last longer than once thought queen? With East or West ASK DR. K Dear Dr. K: I just experienced my first, full-blown menopausal hot flash. It was awful. How long can I expect hot flashes to continue?

Dear Reader: Your question reminds me of a patient I saw when I recently had finished my training. (Believe it or not, I was even younger then than I am now.) She said she had come to see me because of hot flashes. Then she said: “I had heard about hot flashes since I was a girl, and I thought I knew what to expect. But you can’t really imagine it until you’ve experienced it.”

I told her I had treatments that could help reduce her symptoms until they went away on their own. She asked me how long that would take,

Anthony L. Komaroff and I repeated what I had been taught – and what was in the textbooks: “A few years.”

Twenty years later, she was still having hot flashes.

When she informed me of this, she added: “In my dictionary, doctor, 20 is more than ‘a few’ years.”

By that time, I knew this patient was not unique; I had seen plenty others like her. So I asked myself: Who are you going to believe, your textbook or your patients? It seemed to me the patients must be right. But I also knew doctors

plenty do.

For some women, hot flashes are a minor annoyance. For others, they severely disrupt quality of life. Just as that first patient I saw said she really didn’t understand what hot flashes were until she had experienced them, I’m sure we male physicians (and premenopausal female physicians) don’t really understand them either.

In tomorrow’s column, I’ll talk about some of the medical treatments and “home remedies” that can relieve the severity of hot flashes.

Give up pot right away to avoid jeopardizing Navy career Dr. Wallace: I’m very close to graduating from high school. After summer vacation, I plan to join the U.S. Navy. My uncle is in the Navy and will stay there until he retires. He has convinced me a naval career is a great life.

My parents are very happy because I am just an average student, but I’m very good at preparing food, and I plan to be a cook in the military.

I’m not into alcohol or hard drugs, but I do smoke pot maybe once every two weeks with some of my male friends.

Somewhere I heard marijuana can stay in a person’s system for a long time. Is this a fact or just a myth?

I plan to stop smoking pot forever once I’m in the Navy, but I don’t want to flunk my physical examination because of marijuana in my system.

Please answer as soon as

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace possible. – Nameless, Jackson,

Mississippi Nameless: When marijuana is smoked, the chemical delta9-THC, which produces the “high,” begins to build up in the fatty tissues of the body’s organs after smoking just one joint. It takes at least three to four weeks for the THC from a single joint to leave the body.

Why take a chance? It would be a terrible mistake to give up a life in the Navy just because marijuana residue was still present in your body, causing you to flunk the physical. Since you plan to be marijuana-free once you join the Navy, be wise and give up pot today.

HOROSCOPE

Dr. Wallace: My only friend always finds excuses why she can’t visit my house even though I visit her at her house often. Last week I invited her to visit me, but she said she had a friend coming to visit her on the same day. I understand that, because I’m not her only friend. I called her on the weekend and she promised to visit me Monday or Tuesday.

On Monday she said she had to take her driver’s test. She called on Tuesday and said she didn’t have transportation. My mom offered to pick her up, but she said she had to help her mom because her mom had a party that night.

Now I honestly don’t think I can trust anything she says to me. Should I continue being her friend or should I tell her she needs to grow up and stop telling lies? Of course, that would end our friendship.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Financial deals are looking good. You need to be able to act when the time is right, so ask questions and talk to experts who can help you improve your monetary situation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Personal issues will be distressing. Share your empathy with people who you know may be going through tough times. Your support will be appreciated more than you realize.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Unexpected changes will turn in your favor. The time is right to turn up the heat and go after what you want. Show your devotion and determination to excel.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Reconsider an offer that you rejected in the past. By gathering details, you are likely to find that you have more opportunities than you first thought.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – You’ll be lots of fun, but overindulgence or overspending will land you in hot water with the people you love. This is no time to blow your budget or take on debt.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Pretending a problem doesn’t exist will not make it go away. Face personal issues head on and avoid emotional displays that will make you appear unstable.

What should I do? – Connie, St. Catharine’s, Ontario, Canada.

Connie: Stay friends with this girl as long as you enjoy being with her at her house and she enjoys having you visit. Some people have a hang-up about going to other people’s houses.

Regardless of what you do, don’t make this friend your only friend. Get involved in school clubs and activities. It’s a wonderful way to meet and make new friends.

Dr. Wallace: I’m a single mom with a 14-year-old son.

I’m an addicted cigarette smoker and have been smoking for more than 20 years.

I’ve tried many times to stop this nasty habit, but nothing has worked.

I do not want my son to become a smoker. Is it possible for a parent who smokes

to have a child who doesn’t?

If so, how can I make sure he does not smoke? – Mom, Lake

Charles, Louisiana.

Mom: I know it feels awkward to tell a child, “Do as I say, not as I do,” but that’s exactly what you must say.

Children whose parents smoke are at much greater risk of smoking themselves, but parents can decrease a child’s likelihood if they let the child know clearly and repeatedly smoking is a nasty habit and they do not approve of it.

You should explain this in no uncertain terms, and this message should never change.

P.S.: Some smokers who have been addicted for 20 or more years have become smoke-free. So can you.

CROSSWORD

Louis L’Amour, an author primarily of Western novels (although he called them frontier stories), said, “If you write a book about a bygone period that lies east of the Mississippi River, then it’s a historical novel. If it’s west of the Mississippi, it’s a Western, a different category. There’s no sense to it.”

But we can understand it.

In today’s deal, South might wonder who holds the diamond queen: East or West? South is in six spades. After West leads the club queen, how should declarer continue?

In the auction, South’s four-spade jump-rebid is called a superaccept. It shows a maximum, four- or five-card support and a doubleton somewhere.

Faced with an unavoidable club loser because of the mirror distribution, an inexperienced player would wonder about the diamond queen. But a sharpshooter will know there is no sense in thinking about it. Instead, declarer should arrange an elimination and endplay – our theme for the week.

There are three key points for declarer: Draw trumps, but have at least one left in each hand to benefit from a ruff-andsluff. Eliminate all of the cards in two of the side suits. Have an opponent on lead, so when he leads the third side suit, it helps declarer to gain a trick or save a guess.

In this deal, South wins with dummy’s club ace, draws trumps, and cashes his three heart winners. Then he casts adrift with his last club. Whichever defender takes the trick is endplayed, forced either to lead a diamond, finding the queen for declarer, or to play a heart or club, conceding a ruff-andsluff.
