Schoolhouse – Manhattan MANHATTAN – The first school in Manhattan Township was a log structure that was constructed in 1852 along present-day Baker Road. In time, and in the spirit of the Free School Acts of 1825 and 1845, one-room wooden schoolhouses were soon constructed throughout the township.

By 1870, however, Manhattan’s population grew to the extent that the Township Supervisor established eight separate school districts as required by the new State Constitution. Article VIII of the third Constitution of the State of Illinois mandated that all counties had to organize elementary school districts.

Like most one-room schoolhouses of the day, these buildings had one door, four to six windows and were heated with coal or wood stoves. Most schoolhouses had student desks that faced the blackboard in the front of the room.

While outside amenities were lacking, each schoolhouse did have available water that was pumped from a deep well.

One of the eight schools in Manhattan Township, the Manhattan Grade School, was located one-half mile west on Sweedler Road (then called Brown Road), along the north side of the road. In 1902, the Manhattan Grade School’s name was changed to District 114 to correspond with the county numbering system. By 1908, a new two-story brick schoolhouse was completed in the village to replace the old Manhattan Grade School building. The then image shows a west and south side view of this new school. No-

tice the three young children on the stairs. Younger children’s classes were conducted on the first floor and the older children used classrooms on the top floor. Some of these classes were part of a new two-year high school program. Additions were added to this building over the years to accommodate student growth and needed facilities,

including a gymnasium, a stage, a library and additional classrooms.

The other one-room schoolhouses continued to operate throughout the township, until they were eliminated in the early 1950s. As these school buildings were taken out of use, as additions to the Manhattan School District building were added to accom-

modate the students from the entire township. In 1964, the two-story building was razed and replaced with a one-story building at 200 Second Street.

In 1965, a resolution was adopted by the school board changing the school’s name to Anna McDonald District 114.

Beekeeper reaps last honey harvest of the year

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – On a cool October morning, 76-year-old Bill Lorch is in his backyard in Joliet extracting honey from a couple of beehive frames.

Dressed in protective gear, Lorch points to a bee sting on his middle finger from that morning. Rather than removing the stinger immediately, the stinger is still penetrating his skin.

“I can’t even count how many times I’ve been stung,” Lorch said, laughing.

The small batch he’s extracting is likely one of the last he’ll harvest for the year. While extracting honey in cold temperatures can be difficult, it’s also detrimental to colonies if beekeepers take too much food from the hives before winter hits.

But Lorch knows what he’s doing and will have to gauge how much honey to leave so the bees can use their own stores through what could be another brutal winter.

In the years that beekeeping became a growing trend amid declining bee populations, Lorch was hands-deep in honey long before anyone else.

Well, sort of.

“Years and years ago, his grandparents in upstate New York were beekeepers and ushered him into helping out back then,” said Betty Lorch, his wife. “He was 10.”

Lorch has kept bees for more than 60 years, with several hives at his home on Douglas Street and others that he manages at Joliet Junior College and at Pilcher Park.

He likes to harvest honey – a complicated process – in the fall. Others harvest in mid-summer, giving bees adequate time to replenish their food supplies ahead of the colder months.

Lorch and his wife, Betty, sell honey at farmers markets and other community events.

“If you ask 10 beekeepers that question, you will get 12 responses. Some people wrap hives in dark paper, others insulate, others move them into barns or structures to reduce exposure to the wind, some drill holes in a hive to improve ventilation. Some feed, some medicate, some pray, some do nothing at all.”

Darien Kruss Will County Beekeepers Association president on how beekeepers can ensure bees survive the winter

is by no means a money-maker.

“It’s really a money-losing proposition,” Lorch said. “I do it because I love it.”

The type, quality and taste of honey greatly depends on which flowers the bees visit in the area to gather nectar. The honey produced by Lorch’s backyard bees is a mix of wildflowers and clover in the area, she said, noting the honey’s light amber color.

“We can’t really tell the bees where to go or which flowers to visit,” Betty Lorch joked.

Bill and Betty Lorch also are active members in the Will

County Beekeepers Association – a fairly new group that started in 2011 with just a dozen members but has since grown to 140 members.

Surviving the winter As was the case with many beekeepers in the Midwest, beekeepers from the Will County Beekeepers Association lost most, or all, of their colonies the past brutal winter because colonies starved, unable to reach their food source.

To make up the loss, the group had more than 400 packages of bees from California

shipped to Illinois earlier this year – each weighing about three pounds and containing about 10,000 bees.

Darien Kruss, president of the group, said it’s impossible to predict how well this year’s batch of bees will fare.

It depends on a number of factors, including the number of bees in a colony, winter food stores, the presence of pests and disease and how consistently cold the season is, among others.

But how can beekeepers en-

n Bees must visit 2 million flowers to make a pound of honey. The flowers, including blossoms, change from spring to summer to fall. This, in turn, changes the types of nectar and pollen the bees will discover and bring back to the hive. n A single bee, that lives about 6 weeks, will make 1/12 a teaspoon of honey. They carry nectar in their honey stomach, or crop, which is separate from their digestive system. n There, it mixes with enzymes until it is returned to the hive and placed into wax cells. The bees will fan it down, evaporating the nectar from around 80 percent water to less than 20 percent water at which point it becomes honey. The bees then cap the cell with a thin layer of wax, and that honey will never spoil. n Beekeepers remove the wax containing honey from the hive.

Beekeepers can then use a variety of methods to extract the honey from the wax. Most often, beekeepers will strain and bottle it, using no heat or chemicals. n The result? Pure, raw, delicious honey.

sure the bees survive the winter?

“If you ask 10 beekeepers that question, you will get 12 responses,” Kruss said. “Some people wrap hives in dark paper, others insulate, others move them into barns or structures to reduce exposure to the wind, some drill holes in a hive to improve ventilation. Some feed, some medicate, some pray, some do nothing at all.”

Magical lands Gardeners create tabletop landscape for fairies

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Linda Emmert had never put together a fairy garden but the experience was growing on her.

Emmert, of Joliet, was creating a tabletop landscape – along with dozens of other gardeners – that could prove a fitting home for fairies. Rows of gardeners at the University of Illinois Extension’s Will County’s Office on Saturday propped up tiny homes and decorations on soil with succulent plants.

“It’s very creative and relaxing. It’s kind of fun,” Emmert said.

Nancy Kuhajda, Will County master gardener coordinator, said Saturday’s fairy garden program was meant to engage people in a type of gardening that could be done during the late fall and winter season. The program also is meant to sharpen people’s horticulture skills, she said.

The fairy gardens can be grown and put in dark areas or places that are normally not hospitable to plant life. “[Fairy gardens] highlight areas that are negative and turn them into something pos-

itive,” she said.

With fairy gardens, people use succulent plants because they require less maintenance and grow well in homes during the winter, according to the University of Illinois Extension. They require less water and go for longer periods between watering.

“Most plants don’t like hot and dry conditions. Succulent plants do,” Kuhajda said.

Participants made their gardens from items such as twigs, sea shells, milkweed pods, feathers, pebbles, dried flowers, birdhouses, wooden houses and bridges. One participant, Loretta Sartore, put a miniature outhouse in her garden.

One benefit to fairy gardens is that they can be customized for each holiday season.

Suzanne Campbell, master gardener, appeared at Saturday’s program dressed as a fairy and helped people with their tabletop gardens.

She brought along several of her own miniature gardens, including a beach-themed garden that was put in a memory jar to honor her late mother, who lived in Siesta Key, Florida.

City of Joliet lays out the rules for yard waste and leaf disposal THE HERALD–NEWS JOLIET – The city of Joliet is reminding residents of the city’s yard waste and leaf disposal policy in the weeks remaining before the last pick-up.

The last day of yard waste pick-up is Dec. 5.

Yard waste collection will resume again in the spring.

Waste Management will collect yard waste at the same time that garbage and recy-

cling are picked up, the city said in a news release about the guidelines.

Residents should place yard waste and leaves in rigid containers no larger than 32 gallons in size. The containers must be clearly marked so they are visible from the street. Free yard waste labels are available at City Hall and at Jewel Foods stores.

Yard waste also can be disposed in 30-gallon Kraft paper

yard-waste bags.

Also, residents can rent or purchase 96-gallon carts from Waste Management for yard waste disposal. Those, too, must be clearly marked with yard waste labels and only can be used for landscape-type waste during the yard waste season. Carts can be obtained from Waste Management by calling 815-280-7854.

Brush, tree limbs and branches must be bundled with

bundles not exceeding 4 feet in length, weighing no more than 50 pounds, and having no individual pieces more than 3 inches in diameter.

The city and Waste Management will not pick up leaves left at curbs in loose piles. Leaves left in the parkway can close off drainage openings and create flooding problems, the city said in its release.

A city ordinance prohibits depositing leaves on sidewalks,

parkways and streets. A resident can be fined $150 or more for repeated violations of the ordinance.

Also, the city prohibits burning of leaves.

Those with questions about yard waste and leaf disposal guidelines can call Roadways Division at 815-724-3650. Or, information is available at www. cityofjoliet.info by going to the “Residents” tab and clicking onto “Garbage and Recycling.”

Seven-Day Forecast for Will County

adno=0290412

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Just two years ago, electrical aggregation was the rage among municipalities that put together buying blocks to purchase electricity at rates far lower than what they could get from ComEd. That has changed with ComEd rates coming down.

The Will County Governmental League decided last week to drop one part of its aggregation program when it could not find a supplier that would provide electricity at rates cheaper than ComEd. “We didn’t want to put residents in a situation where they would be paying more,” said Hugh O’Hara, director of planning and programs for the Will County Governmental League.

The league is keeping the larger part of its aggregation program, which is called “OptOut” and includes 18 cities and villages in Will County or on its borders. The Opt-Out program still has a supplier that can beat ComEd rates, although the savings for consumers is a fraction of what it was two years ago.

Residents in the Opt-Out towns will save about $16 on their electric bills over the coming year, O’Hara said. That compares with an average savings of between $250 and $300 through the previous two years of the program – a dollar amount that explains why aggregation had such appeal.

The “Opt-In” program is what was dropped last week when the league could not find a rate lower than what ComEd offers residents already.

“Everyone knew this was going to happen,” Joliet City Manager Jim Hock said three weeks ago when Joliet, one of the Opt-In communities, began informing residents that it was not likely to stay in the aggregation program.

Hock noted that ComEd rates were high two years ago because the utility was locked into long-term supply contracts at a time when electricity costs were dropping. But expectations were that the rates would drop when ComEd exited those

Opt-In/Opt-Out Opt-In Communities: Diamond, Joliet, Minooka, Monee and Wilmington.

Opt-Out Communities: Beecher, Bolingbrook, Braidwood, Channahon, Coal City, Crete, Elwood, Frankfort, Homer Glen, Lemont, Lockport, Monee, Plainfield, Peotone, Rockdale, Romeoville, Shorewood and Woodridge. contracts.

The differences between Opt-Out and Opt-In is what accounts for one still having value and the other being canceled.

Opt-Out is so called because residents and small businesses in those towns are connected with the electricity supplier chosen by the municipality automatically. They do have the option of choosing another supplier, but they have to give notice and take action to do so.

In other words, they have to opt out.

Towns only got into the OptOut program after voters approved referendums.

Typically, O’Hara said, about 95 percent of the eligible customers in an Opt-Out municipality stay with the chosen supplier.

“Those numbers flip when you do an Opt-In program,” O’Hara said.

Residents and small businesses in Opt-In communities need to sign up with the supplier chosen by the municipality.

They have to opt in. Otherwise, they stay with ComEd, which nearly all customers do.

Only five towns were in the Will County Governmental League’s Opt-In program: Joliet, Minooka, Wilmington, Monee and Diamond.

Since there are fewer towns and only a fraction of the residents in those towns participate, the bulk buying power for the Opt-In communities was diminished. But the administrative costs of making the program available are the same for the utility, O’Hara said.

Put it all together, and OptIn just is not viable this year, he said.

“CITGO epitomizes a philanthropic corporate citizen, actively contributing to the welfare of its communities through volunteering and charitable giving. Without their assistance, this immense restoration project would not be possible.”

On November 1, 2014, CITGO employees joined the Wildlife Habitat Council, community leaders and students, to launch the Lemont Quarry Restoration Project. Under the guidance of expert biologists, the local volunteers created an inventory of the area’s native and invasive species—the irst and crucial phase of reviving the site to the natural habitat it once was.

AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

A prayer warrior for God New Lenox Township man was strong in spirit

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Monday, November 10, 2014

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX TOWNSHIP – Eugene Handorf was 11 years old when he accepted Christ and his life was never the same, said his mother Karen Handorf of New Lenox Township.

It didn’t cure the Duchenne muscular dystrophy Eugene had or his need to adapt as his muscles deteriorated. As Eugene grew weaker, Karen said, he adapted, such as elevating tables at school to make it easier for him to work.

But it did eliminate Eugene’s occasional surliness and his lack of affection.

After Eugene became a Christian, he often hugged people and told them, “I love you,”

Karen said.

And it filled Eugene with great hope and confidence that God would eventually heal him.

“He became this prayer warrior for God,” Karen said.

“As he got weaker physically, he got stronger spiritually.

When something happened that was upsetting, he would just go pray. Me, I’ve got to figure it out, but he would go pray. He never prayed for himself. He was always praying for different people.

People would ask him to pray for them and he would say, ‘I already did.’ ” In special education classes for those who have a learning disability since he was 3, Eugene was 6 the day Karen received a call from the school that Eugene had

collapsed. Blood tests showed that Eugene’s muscles were breaking down, she said.

By 14, Eugene could no longer walk, but from his wheelchair, he participated in Lincolnway Special Recreation Association for track and won a medal with Special Olympics, Karen said.

Eventually, none of Eugene’s limbs worked well.

“It was heart failure that took him,” Karen said.

But when Eugene was in grade school, during the time his family belonged to a evangelistic and charismatic Catholic fellowship group that met in downtown Chicago, Eugene told Karen he had accepted Jesus into his heart, she said.

Continued from page 8 Eugene’s ability to absorb scripture he had heard awed and inspired his mother, as well as others, especially once they realized he had never read the Bible and never would. Eugene could not read. He could barely count.

He did not know his ABCs, Karen said.

Yet, Eugene freely shared both knowledge and wisdom.

“It had to come from God,” Karen said.

Eugene also was fascinated by construction, and that fascination, coupled with his zeal for God, led to Eugene to long for a church in his yard.

Eugene’s prayer came true

during one Christmas dinner, when a relative announced he had leftover building material, Karen said.

Volunteers constructed it, Karen said. Eugene named his chapel, “Amazing Grace.”

“It had a shingled roof and everything,” Karen said.

As people learned about Eugene’s chapel, they donated items, such as candlesticks and chalices, Karen said. Eugene added his own “Stations of the Cross” by painting crosses gold and cutting up pictures from a children’s book and laminating them, Karen said. Getting the crosses was the easy part.

“Everywhere Eugene went, he bought a cross,” Karen said. “He had some in his room, some in the church and

some around the house.”

Although Karen believes God did answer Eugene’s prayers for healing, she said that Eugene had always hoped God would grant that healing while he was still on earth. Still Karen said she learned from her son’s example and she believes others did, too. She recalled the words the priest spoke at Eugene’s funeral service.

“He said, ‘If Eugene didn’t get into heaven, the rest of us are in big trouble because we won’t be going either,’ ” Karen said.”

Honoring all veterans With Veterans Day being tomorrow, it’s fitting to make space to thank the many who have served in one way or another for our country.

My father was stationed in Alaska during World War II and was a chef in the Army.

Not the type of military job that typically comes to mind when we think of veterans.

My uncle, on the other hand, my dad’s much younger brother, was an airman in the Vietnam War. Whatever their rank or service, every veteran in every war or conflict has done much to serve and support our country whether on the front lines or behind the scenes.

Ernest “Bob” Pliny Fisk Stewart, the father of Minooka’s Bob Stewart, was in the Army Air Corps from 1942 to 1945. He was stationed at Wheeler Air Field on Oahu, Hawaii, just one year after the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

Wheeler Field was Ha-

for human interest stories, said Stewart, who will celebrate his 95th birthday three days before Christmas.

“They called me Flash Stewart because I used a lot of flash bulbs,” he said.

One thing he enjoyed taking pictures of were tow targets, targets towed behind military aircraft and photographed using aerial cameras.

Stewart took pictures of many important military men when they came to the base. The most famous person he saw during his years of service was President Dwight Eisenhower; although he didn’t get to photograph him.

“We stood guard,” Stewart said. “The highway was lined with troops to protect [the president].”

Stewart didn’t mind his time in the service, he said. He was drafted so he was proud to serve. His company became a tight knit group.

He does count himself

VIEWS Kris Stadalsky waii’s main fighter base and was heavily attacked in 1941.

Nearly two-thirds of the 140 planes on the ground were destroyed or put out of action.

After Stewart was drafted he was given a choice of schools to attend to train for his service career.

Some men wanted to work on military vehicles, others pictured themselves a tail gunner. Stewart, who always had an interest in photography, went to school in Denver and became a photographer for the Army Air Corp.

He wasn’t at all concerned about going to the island so soon after Pearl Harbor was bombed, he related to me last Friday from Sunny Hill Nursing Home where he now lives.

It was his job to get photos

Ernest “Bob” Pliny Fisk Stewart is shown with an aerial camera he used during his service in the Army Air Corp. lucky not to have seen action during his service.

“I don’t think people understand how the Army works,” he said. “Everybody that’s in the service is under orders to do whatever they decide you should do.”

Stewart thanks every other veteran that served our coun-

try, he said.

“I thank every veteran that served because it’s an honor to be a veteran.”

OBITUARIES Born: April 27, 1950 Died: Nov. 8, 2014

JOSEPH A. DELANEY

TRACY LYNN BRANDAU Tracy Lynn Brandau, age 39, of Frankfort, passed away peacefully with family at her side on Thursday, November 6, 2014.

She is survived by her parents, Ed

Joseph Anthony Delaney “Joe,” age 86, passed away peacefully at St. Patrick’s Residence in Naperville on Friday, November 7, 2014.

Loving and devoted husband of over 66 years to Helen (nee Buttles) Delaney; doting father of Maureen (Charles) Resler of Naperville, Peg (Ed) Monteagudo of Western Springs, Patricia (Terry) Stanley of Plainfield, Kathleen (Gary) Anderson of Plainfield, Susan (John) Hulbert of Minooka, Michael (Vikki) Delaney of Western Springs, and Sharon

(Michael) Carnaghi of Oswego; treasured grandfather of Jennifer (Gerry) Hall, Joseph (Megan) Resler, Emily, David and Laura Monteagudo, Timothy (Wendy), Daniel (Heather), and Colleen Stanley, Katherine (Steve) Moudry, Patrick (Karli), Nicholas (Debbie), Christopher, and Sarah Anderson, Jeffrey, Stephen (Tracey), Michelle, Kevin Hulbert, Sean, Connor, and Nolan Delaney, Thomas and Julia Carnaghi; dear great-grandfather of 12; and caring brother-in-law of Phyllis (the late John) Rapcan of Plainfield.

Preceded in death by his parents, Frank and Margaret (nee Ardaugh) Delaney; one brother, Harold (the late Florence and Vera) Delaney; and one sister, Evelyn (the late Vincent) Walsh.

Joseph was born and raised on his family farm in Manhattan, Illinois.

He graduated from St. Joseph Grade School in 1942 and then from Joliet Catholic High School in 1946. It was during his high school years that he met the love of his life, Helen, on a blind date. They married in 1948 and went on to have six children living in Manhattan as active members of St. Joseph Church where Joe attended Mass daily. Joe moved his family to Joliet in 1964, where they became active members of the Cathedral of St. Raymond Nonnatus and added their seventh child. Throughout the next 50 years, Joe modeled his faith for his family and community by continuing to attend Mass daily, as well as serving as a lector and Eucharistic minister.

Joseph was employed for 40 years as an industrial salesman for Barrett Hardware Company where he made many life-long friends. He continued in sales working for Bell Realty and Kerr Supply and then into his early 80’s working part-time as a courier for First American Title Company and Hometown National Bank, as well as serving coffee at White Hen Pantry.

Joseph taught his children the importance of faith, family, and a strong work ethic. He believed that his family was his greatest asset and leaves a legacy which each one of them cherishes.

Joseph loved people and was as interested in what others had to share about their own background and family as he was in sharing the details of his own children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, of whom he was so proud.

Once Joe met someone, he never forgot their name or the information they shared with him and he cared enough to ask for an update

when he saw them again. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew and loved him.

The family wishes to thank the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm and the entire staff at St. Patrick’s Residence for their loving and dignified care of Joe for nearly two years and particularly during these past several months.

In lieu of flowers donations may be made in Joseph’s name to St. Patrick’s Residence, 1400 Brookdale Road, Naperville, IL 60563.

A Celebration of Joseph’s life will begin on Wednesday, November 12, 2014, with prayers in the funeral home chapel at 9:20 a.m. then driving in procession to the Cathedral of St. Raymond Nonnatus for a Mass of Christian Burial to be held at 10:00 a.m. Entombment to follow at Resurrection Mausoleum in Romeoville. Visitation will be on Tuesday, November 11, 2014, at Tezak Funeral Home, 1211 Plainfield Road, Joliet, IL from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m.

Former congressman Phil Crane dies

By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press CHICAGO – Longtime Illinois U.S. Rep. Phil Crane – an anti-tax crusader and ardent advocate of limited government even before those views became a hallmark of the GOP under President Ronald Reagan – has died of lung cancer at age 84.

The Chicago-born Crane died Saturday night at his daughter’s Jefferson, Maryland, home surrounded by the children he once delighted in sending poems to, said Eric Elk, a congressional aide to Crane through much of the 1990s.

The one-time history professor-turned politician represented Chicago’s far northwest suburbs for 35 years and was the longest-serving House Republican when he was defeated in 2004 by Democrat and then-political newcomer Melissa Bean.

Crane also made an unsuccessful run for the Republican presidential nomination in 1980, losing out to the eventual winner, Ronald Reagan, who would go on to become the politician most closely associated

But Crane had touted what he saw as the virtue of smaller government going back to the 1960s, spelling out his vision of a stripped down, low-tax federal government in his 1976 book, “The Sum of Good Government.”

“Phil was conservative before it was cool to be conservative,” said Elk. After a stint in the U.S.

Army in the mid-1950s, Crane earned a PhD in history from Indiana University in 1963. He worked as an assistant history professor until 1967 at Bradley University, where also wrote on national politics.

Crane was first elected to Congress in 1969 when a young Illinois congressman – future Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld – left to work for the Nixon administration.

His conservative creden-

tials didn’t preclude personal relationships with politicians on the other end of the spectrum, Elk said. He recalls Crane and U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel, a Democrat, “cracking each other up with jokes” before sometimes contentious sessions of the House Ways and Means Committee began.

Crane also took time to write notes of encouragement to Democrat Dan Rostenkowski when the fellow U.S. congressman from Illinois ran into legal trouble.

“People would always say how Phil was such a conservative,” said Elk, who is now chief of staff for Illinois Sen. Mark Kirk. “He was. But he was also a good person who cared about people.”

Elk described Crane as erudite and well-read, recalling how he made a point of writing his children a full poem each year for their birthdays.

“He was most happy when he had those kids around him,” Elk said.

Crane is survived by seven of those children. He was preceded in death by one daughter, who died at 31, and by his wife, Arlene.

Ernie Vandeweghe, a New York Knicks player in the postWorld War II era and father of former NBA star Kiki Vandeweghe and three other top athletes, has died. He was 86.

The death was confirmed Sunday by the NBA through its NBA history Twitter feed and by granddaughter and pro tennis player CoCo Vandeweghe in a Facebook post Saturday.

Vandeweghe averaged 9.5 points and 4.6 rebounds in 224 regular-season games for the Knicks from 1949-56. In college, he averaged 19.1 points in four seasons at Colgate.

Ernie Vandeweghe’s wife, Colleen, died in 2010. She won the 1952 Miss America pageant.

Born in Montreal, Vandeweghe went to medical school while in the NBA and was a physician in the U.S. Air Force.

He was chairman of the President’s Council on Physical Fit-

ness and Sports and served on the Olympic Sports Commission. He also was the Lakers’ team physician when the team moved to Los Angeles from Minneapolis.

Kiki Vandeweghe played 13 seasons in the NBA and was a two-time All-Star who averaged 19.7 points for his career.

Daughter Tauna won a U.S. swimming championship in the backstroke and competed in the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Son Bruk was a beach volleyball player, and daughter Heather captained the U.S. women’s polo team. Coco is Tauna’s daughter.

Ernie Vandeweghe grew up on Long Island and played football, basketball and baseball at Oceanside High School.

Few expectations of lawmaker session post-election

CHICAGO – Moments after conceding a close election, outgoing Gov. Pat Quinn vowed to fight for a minimum wage hike before leaving office – but whether lawmakers follow through or pursue other major issues before Republican governor-elect Bruce Rauner takes over is far from certain.

During a post-victory statewide tour, Rauner asked lawmakers not to tackle major issues before he’s in charge. Some legislative leaders and experts predict that’ll be the case during this month’s scheduled veto session or the so-called lame-duck session in January, a time when lawmakers are more likely to consider controversial bills. Still, last-minute plans could materialize if Democrats, who have majorities in the House and Senate, decide to cram through proposals ahead of the first Republican arriving in the governor’s office in more than a decade.

“There’s going to be a lot of feeling our way on both sides,” Senate Republican Leader Christine Radogno said. “Clearly this is a huge change for the state, to have a two-party system back in play.”

The agenda for the veto session scheduled to start Nov. 19 includes a hearing on Illinois’ school funding formula, and one Democratic lawmaker says he’ll try for an override of Quinn’s veto of ridesharing legislation.

Fans get the ultimate selfie at the in-store appearance of the Kendall and Kylie Holiday Collection launch Saturday at PacSun in Schaumburg.

Police say in a news release that in each case the robber either displayed a handgun or implied he or she had one before demanding the victim’s property.

The robberies occurred at various times of day and night on four occasions beginning Oct. 31.

The most recent was Friday.

It was unclear how many people were responsible.

Illinois inmates’ remains get final resting place

HILLSBORO – The cremated remains of 14 men who died in a central Illinois prison have a final resting place.

Springfield’s State Journal-Register reported the inmates died in the past eight years at the Graham Correctional Center in Hillsboro. But no relatives came forward, and the ashes sat on a shelf in the Montgomery County

coroner’s office.

Several county officials began to broach the issue of the unclaimed remains, and board member Mary Bathurst began talking to church groups and a local funeral home director.

Bathurst says the men deserved a proper burial.

The State Journal-Register says the remains were finally interned at the Oak Grove Cemetery mausoleum not far from the prison.

The remains will be kept in a vault, and more remains can be added if they go unclaimed.

3 arrested in suspected Bradley confrontations

PEORIA – Police have arrested three juvenile males in connection with a series of physical confrontations at Bradley University last week.

The Peoria Journal Star reported

the Peoria and Bradley University police departments announced the arrests Friday. Their attempts to identify two other suspects continue.

Police say five juveniles wandered the Bradley campus Monday night from 9 to 9:15 p.m.

They allegedly surrounded two female students and grabbed their buttocks, surrounded another woman and threw a canned beverage at the head of a man. They also allegedly threw a tree branch at another woman, tackled her and stole her cellphone.

Further information about the suspects was unavailable because of their age.

Deputies find drugs, AK-47 during check on parolee

CHICAGO – Cook County Sheriff’s deputies conducting a check on a parolee on electronic

monitoring found suspected crack cocaine and two firearms, including a fully loaded AK-47style rifle.

Authorities say 23-year-old Michael Rivers is charged with unlawful possession of a weapon by a felon and possession of cocaine and marijuana.

Investigators from the sheriff’s electronic monitoring unit responded Thursday afternoon to a Chicago home after receiving a report that Rivers had violated curfew. Rivers is on electronic monitoring.

Deputies determined Rivers had a legitimate reason to have left.

But when they went to check the monitoring unit, they found what appeared to be crack cocaine on a plate on the dining room floor.

Deputies also recovered the AK-47, a .357-caliber revolver and suspected marijuana.

Federal government struggles against increasing cyberattacks

By MARTHA MENDOZA The Associated Press A $10 billion-a-year effort to protect sensitive government data, from military secrets to Social Security numbers, is struggling to keep pace with an increasing number of cyberattacks and is unwittingly being undermined by federal employees and contractors.

Workers scattered across more than a dozen agencies, from the Defense and Education departments to the National Weather Service, are responsible for at least half of the federal cyberincidents reported each year since 2010, according to an Associated Press analysis of records.

They have clicked links in bogus phishing emails, opened malware-laden websites and been tricked by scammers into sharing information. One was redirected to a hostile site after connecting to a video of tennis star Serena Williams. A few act intentionally, most famously former National Security Agency

contractor Edward Snowden, who downloaded and leaked documents revealing the government’s collection of phone and email records.

Then there was the federal contractor who lost equipment containing the confidential information of millions of Americans, including Robert Curtis of Monument, Colorado.

“I was angry, because we as citizens trust the government to act on our behalf,” he said. Curtis, according to court records, was besieged by identity thieves after someone stole data tapes that the contractor left in a car, exposing the health records of about 5 million current and former Pentagon employees and their families.

At a time when intelligence officials say cybersecurity now trumps terrorism as the No. 1 threat to the U.S. – and when breaches at businesses such as Home Depot and Target focus attention on data security – the federal government isn’t required to publicize its own brushes

with data loss.

Last month, a breach of unclassified White House computers by hackers thought to be working for Russia was reported not by officials but The Washington Post.

“It would be unwise, I think for rather obvious reasons, for me to discuss from here what we have learned so far,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest later said about the report.

To determine the extent of federal cyberincidents, which include probing into network weak spots, stealing data and defacing websites, the AP filed dozens of Freedom of Information Act requests, interviewed hackers, cybersecurity experts and government officials, and obtained documents describing digital cracks in the system.

That review shows that 40 years and more than $100 billion after the first federal data protection law was enacted, the government is struggling to close holes without the knowledge, staff or systems to outwit an ever-evolving foe.

American Association of Poison Control Centers. Many calls involve regular laundry detergent, which can cause mild stomach upsets; but poison center experts say the new concentrated laundry packets seem to cause more severe problems.

Jessica Morin of Houston said her 9-month-old daughter, Marlow, was sickened earlier this year when Jessica’s grandmother mistook a detergent pod for a teething toy and put it in the baby’s mouth.

“I called poison control, and they said to take her to the ER immediately,” Morin said.

Marlow was vomiting repeatedly and underwent tests, but doctors at Texas Children’s Hospital found no serious damage and she didn’t need to stay overnight.

“We were very lucky,” Morin said. “We don’t have those pods in our house anymore.”

Iraqi officials say IS leader was wounded in airstrike

By QASSIM ABDUL-ZAHRA and VIVIAN SALAMA The Associated Press BAGHDAD – Iraqi officials said Sunday that the head of the Islamic State group, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, was wounded in an airstrike in western Anbar province. Pentagon officials said they had no immediate information on such an attack or on the militant leader being injured.

Iraq’s Defense and Interior ministries both issued statements saying al-Baghdadi had been wounded, without elaborating, and the news was broadcast on state-run television Sunday night.

The reports came at a time when President Barack Obama said the U.S.-led coalition was in a position to start going on the offensive against the Islamic State militants.

Since taking the reins of the group in 2010, he has transformed it from a local branch of al-Qaida into an independent transnational military force.

He has positioned himself

as perhaps the pre-eminent figure in the global jihadi community. His forces have seized large parts of Syria and Iraq, killed thousands of people, beheaded Westerners and drawn the U.S. troops and warplanes back into the region, where Washington is leading a campaign of airstrikes by a multinational coalition.

An Interior Ministry intelligence official told The Associated Press that al-Baghdadi was wounded by an Iraqi airstrike that came during a meeting Saturday with militants in the town of Qaim.

The official, cited informants within the militant group. A senior Iraqi military official also said he learned in operational meetings that al-Baghdadi had been wounded.

The operation was carried out by Iraqi security forces, both officials said, although they did not know how seriously al-Baghdadi was hurt.

DETROIT – The largest U.S. city to endure bankruptcy has exited insolvency $7 billion lighter in debt, but the effects of civic neglect linger for many in Detroit who still fall asleep to echoes of gunfire and awake surrounded by blocks and blocks of abandoned houses.

A federal judge on Friday approved outgoing emergency manager Kevyn Orr’s long-term fiscal recovery plan, which calls for $1.7 billion to remove blight, train city workers, hire more first responders and shore up services to improve the lives of Detroit residents. The city will spend $420 million to raze vacant houses and clear lots; $167 million for new police, fire and EMS vehicles; and $715 million to hire and train workers and for other general upgrades.

Some people, such as Eugene Weller and Bishop White, wonder how long it will be before they see and feel a full recovery in the city that once was home to nearly 2 million residents and pulsed to the aroundthe-clock rhythm of auto assembly lines that kept people working and off the streets.

“If it’s going to better everything, I’m for it,” said White, a 67-year-old retired auto worker. “If they are going to (just) fix up down-

town neighborhoods, no. I ain’t for it. People still live out here. They’re like – forgotten.”

White’s home is one of only four occupied houses on his west-side block and is sandwiched between two empty lots. He wants to buy a lot from the city; crews razed the house that had been there, but the former basement sags and needs more backfill. It’s another example of something the city failed to do right the first time, White said.

“I’m not going to put no money in the lot and then have to live next door to this,” he said, pointing in frustration at the hard, pock-marked dirt.

Restructuring won’t be easy. There will be lean years as elected city leaders search for ways to increase revenue.

Mayor Mike Duggan has said making Detroit more functional could persuade residents to stay and attract new ones. The city’s population is about 688,000, down nearly 30 percent from 2000 and a far cry from the 1.2 million in 1980.

Detroit’s Land Bank has been awarded $52 million in federal money to demolish at least 3,300 of more than 40,000 vacant structures; about 2,300 already are gone.

A public lighting authority also is installing thousands of street lights in once-dark neighborhoods.

CHICAGO – Accidental poisonings from squishy laundry detergent packets sometimes mistaken for toys or candy landed more than 700 U.S. children in the hospital in just two years, researchers report. Coma and seizures were among the most serious complications.

The cases stem from the more than 17,000 poison center calls about the products received in the past two years.

The calls involved children younger than 6, and most weren’t harmed seriously. But one child died last year, and the potential risks highlight a need for even safer packaging, the researchers said.

Some manufacturers already have revised packaging and labels in efforts to make the detergent packets,

or “pods,” safer for children.

The study found calls dipped slightly after some of those changes were made.

The products contain concentrated liquid laundry soap and became widely available in the U.S. two years ago.

Some are multicolored and may look enticing to young children. Poisoning or injuries including mouth, throat and eye burns can occur when kids burst the capsules or put them in their mouths.

In the study, 144 had eye injuries, 30 went into comas and 12 had seizures.

Exposure to household cleaning products is among the top reasons for calls to poison centers involving young children. In 2012, detergent packet calls accounted for a fraction – about 6 percent – of the 111,000 calls involving young children and cleaning products, according to the

FIGHT TO THE FINISH Joliet Catholic falls to nemesis Montini in second round of Class A5 playoffs / 17

Joliet Catholic wingback/quarterback Michael Johnson leaps into the end zone as Montini’s Michael Holingshed tries to stop him during Saturday’s Class 5A playoff game in Joliet. Johnson rushed for 66 yards and threw a 50-yard pass to Harold Davis on a fourth-and-1 play during the Hilltoppers’ 27-13 loss to the Broncos.

VIEWS Dick Goss

“This game in no way detracts from what this team accomplished. It was hard for us to match Montini’s talent, but I never questioned the effort these kids gave.”

Dan Sharp, Joliet Catholic Academy football coach

• Monday, November 10, 2014

The fifth time was not a charm for Joliet Catholic.

The Hilltoppers’ season ended Saturday when they dropped a 27-13 decision to Montini in the second round of the Class 5A state playoffs at ATI Field at Joliet Memorial Stadium.

That marked JCA’s fifth playoff ouster at the hands of Montini in the past six years, including state championship games in 2009 and 2011.

Of course, as Hilltoppers coach Dan Sharp correctly pointed out after Saturday’s game, it’s not just JCA – Montini has been a nemesis to everybody. The Broncos won four straight state titles before losing the finale to Sacred Heart-Griffin last year.

Based on what we saw Saturday, it would come as no surprise if Montini gets a shot at avenging the loss to Sacred Heart-Griffin in this year’s title game.

The Broncos are wellcoached by Chris Andriano and his staff. And as Sharp said, they have great players and consistently.

The Hilltoppers were clinging to a 13-10 lead after three quarters, but things were happening to sway the momentum Montini’s way. A few mistakes proved too much to overcome on a day when Montini won the battle along the line of scrimmage. The work of the Broncos’ defensive line allowed linebacker John Embrey to be a daylong thorn in JCA’s side.

Still the state leader with 13 state championships and 17 title-game appearances, the Hilltoppers never could get their running game going consistently. Given that reality, quarterback Cade Earl was needed. He gets all the credit for returning from a PCL injury and giving it his best. He was hampered by lessened mobility, was sacked

This was a different season in a way. While JCA was highly regarded in any poll you care to access, the Hilltoppers were not as physically gifted as many of their past teams.

They lacked depth in some key spots, one of which was quarterback.

When Earl went down in Week 7, late in JCA’s 24-21 loss to mighty Nazareth, it seemed that could be the beginning of the end. Instead, the Hilltoppers summoned wingback Michael Johnson to take snaps in shotgun formation, the “Hillcat,” and they did not miss a beat.

“When we lost Cade and kept winning, I thought this might be the year we could do it,” Sharp said. “People don’t realize how good and physical Nazareth is. We got overpowered a bit there, and we had to adjust. These guys did.”

Sharp was concerned about how good and physical Montini is as well. Early last week, he put in the third-and-short or fourth-and-short play that turned into a Johnson-to-Harold Davis 50-yard pass play that set up the game-tying field goal.

“Jimmy Sharp [the co-offensive coach] talked me into using the play there,” Sharp said of the fourth-and-1 call at the JCA 29-yard line. “He gets the credit. It was a crucial situation, which is when we were saving it for. It’s too bad he [Davis] got caught from behind and we didn’t get a touchdown there.”

Not being able to punch it in after that huge play Shaw Media file photo was one of those little things Nazareth’s Matt Prendergast takes down Joliet Catholic’s Cade Earl during their Week 7 contest. Earl was that added up to elimination injured late in the game and missed the next games before returning during Saturday’s 27-13 loss to Montini against Montini.

Rodgers continued mastery of Bears

Bears utterly outclassed in Lambeau laugher Packers points.

By ARTHUR ARKUSH aarkush@chicagofootball.com

By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@chicagofootball.com GREEN BAY, Wis. – So. About that Aaron Rodgers success against the Bears story line.

That tale remains alive and well.

Rodgers threw for four (and then a fifth and a sixth) first-half touchdowns for the first time in his NFL career Sunday night at Lambeau Field, en route to a lopsided 55-14 victory over the Bears (3-6) who were embarrassed for a second straight game.

The Bears finished the season’s first half with a 51-23 loss to the Patriots. Coming off a bye week when embattled coach Marc Trestman stressed the need for slowing Rodgers down, the Bears failed to meet expectations.

Rodgers, who is now 12-3 in his career against the Bears, was pulled in favor of back-up Matt Flynn in the third quarter. Before his early departure, Rodgers tied an NFL record for his six touchdown passes in one half of play. He also established a new NFL record with his 16th career scoring pass of 70 yards or more.

Even without their star quarterback, the Packers were able to

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers scrambles during the first half Sunday night against the Bears in Green Bay, Wis. put the game on cruise control.

The finishing blow? An 82-yard return of a Jay Cutler interception for a touchdown with 10:41 remaining.

Even when Chris Williams responded with a 101-yard kickoff return, the Bears were dead in the water.

Rodgers twice connected with

a wide-open Jordy Nelson – first from 73 yards out and then from 40 yards – both times against a Bears secondary that appeared lost on the play, allowing the Packers (63) to build a commanding 42-0 halftime lead.

Rodgers’ mastery continued with 4:48 remaining in the first half when he hooked up with Ed-

die Lacy on a screen pass for a 56yard scoring pass that completed a five-play, 95-yard drive that required just more than 3 minutes.

The only thing that stopped Rodgers and Nelson from connecting for a third time? A 56-yard pass interference call against Tim Jennings that resulted in the Packers taking over deep in Bears territory.

The Bears defense, responded, through as Lance Briggs forced a Randall Cobb fumble – only to have Bears quarterback Jay Cutler get strip-sacked by former Bears teammate Julius Peppers.

Rodgers struck once more before the half, connecting with Cobb from 18 yards out with 14 seconds remaining to complete the firsthalf scoring.

Mason Crosby added field goals of 20 yards and 52 yards in the third quarter.

Rodgers finished the win 18-of27 for 315 yards and the six scores.

In Green Bay’s 38-17 win over the Bears earlier this season at Soldier Field, Rodgers missed on only six passes for 302 yards and four touchdowns.

Meanwhile, the Bears offense remained listless for much of the night, failing to establish much

of anything both on the run and through the air.

The Bears, who stressed during the bye week that more of a run-pass balance was needed to turn things around in the season’s second half, once drove deep into Packers territory. The Bears reached the Green Bay 4-yard line before Cutler – who had already been picked off in the half – misfired on back-to-back passes, nearly throwing his second pick of the night.

The Bears appeared to be threatening late in the second quarter after Cutler connected with Martellus Bennett for 39 yards. But the drive unraveled from there, finished off with Cutler getting sacked on fourth and 10.

The Bears finally ended their scoring drought with 7:44 remaining in the third quarter when Cutler hit Brandon Marshall on a 45-yard touchdown pass. Prior to that, the Bears had been outscored by the Packers, 69-0, dating back to the Week 4 meeting in Chicago.

Marshall, who had eight catches for 112 yards, left the game early in the fourth quarter, appearing to aggravate an ankle injury that has been an issue for him all season.

GREEN BAY, Wis. – Who said the Bears aren’t consistent?

They’ve now played the worst two first halves in the franchise’s storied history in consecutive games. One week after surrendering a club record 38 points in the first half against New England, the Bears trailed, 42-0, at halftime Sunday night against the Packers at Lambeau Field.

The Bears have been outscored a combined 94-7 in the past three first halves.

Aaron Rodgers set an NFL record with six first-half touchdowns, matching his number of incompletions.

Rodgers’ first two touchdowns went to tight ends, demonstrating Packers coach Mike McCarthy’s clear objective to attack a Mel Tucker defense unable to cover them. It was equally apparent that Green Bay spent the bye week preparing to go after the Bears’ safeties, as Chris Conte, Brock Vereen and Ryan Mundy all played a part in blown coverages, resulting in Jordy Nelson running wide open on a pair of long touchdowns that gave Green Bay a 28-0 advantage before three minutes had passed in the second quarter.

As for the Bears’ bye week adjustments, they again failed to get any

Marc Trestman’s plan to achieve better offensive balance was nowhere to be seen early, when Cutler attempted passes on six of the Bears’ first eight plays. The Bears did generate their first turnover in almost a month, a Lance Briggs forced fumble, but it already trailed 35-0 and Cutler gave it right back on a fumble three plays later.

And a team that was expected to be more disciplined committed seven first-half penalties for 104 yards, including unsportsmanlike penal-

ties from Jordan Mills and Kyle Fuller, and two false starts from the typically steady Jermon Bushrod.

Cutler at Lambeau: His first-quarter interception on a ball intended for tight end Martellus Bennett was Cutler’s 11th pick in four games at Lambeau Field compared to just two touchdowns. He should’ve had a 12th interception when his fourthand-goal pass thrown off his back foot against an all-out blitz went off the fingertips of Sam Shields two series later. Cutler was later stripsacked by Julius Peppers. His two giveaways turned into 14 quick

ENDS DECEMBER 1ST

Trestman condemns Houston: Lamarr Houston missed the first game of his five-year career because of a season-ending ACL tear he suffered in Week 8 while celebrating his first sack in the fourth quarter of a game the Bears trailed by 25 points. Coach Marc Trestman again expressed his disappointment in Houston in a pregame interview with Bob Costas on NBC’s Football Night in America.

“Lamarr knows what he did was completely inappropriate at the time,” Trestman said. “It was something that we not only don’t want to see on our team, we don’t want to be a part of that. That’s not what the NFL is all about.”

Willie Young made his second start of the season in Houston’s absence. Cornelius Washington was the first defensive end off the bench, spelling Young on the Bears’ first defensive series.

Insult and injuries: Jordan Mills suffered an injury to his ribs in the first half and never returned. Starting left guard Michael Ola took over at right tackle, with Brian de la Puente entering the game at left guard. Bennett (ribs) played but had an early drop and was the target on Cutler’s first interception. Linebacker Shea McClellin departed briefly in the first quarter with an apparent knee injury but quickly returned.

49ers stop skid, beat Saints in New Orleans

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Monday, November 10, 2014

20

The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW ORLEANS – Colin Kaepernick completed a 51yard pass on fourth down to sustain a tying drive, Ahmad Brooks sacked and stripped Drew Brees in overtime, and Phil Dawson kicked a 35-yard field goal to cap San Francisco’s stirring 27-24 victory over New Orleans on Sunday.

The victory snapped a twogame skid for the Niners (5-4) and marked the first home loss for the Saints (4-5) in more than a season.

The Saints had won their past 11 at home overall, and the past 20 at home including the playoffs, when coached by Sean Payton, who was suspended in 2012.

Brooks’ decisive blow on a sack of Brees had to feel like poetic justice to the Niners linebacker. His unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on a vicious sack and strip in the Superdome a year ago allowed the Saints to pull out a late comeback victory in these teams’ previous meeting.

Brees was intercepted twice, but also passed for three scores, the last to Jimmy Graham to give the Saints a 24-21 lead with 1:52 left in regulation.

Graham also caught a desperation pass in the end zone at the end of regulation, but was called for offensive interference.

Broncos 41, Raiders 17: OAKLAND, Calif. – Peyton Manning threw five touchdown passes in less than 17 minutes and the Broncos handed the Raiders their 15th straight loss.

Manning threw a pair of early interceptions that put Denver (7-2) in a hole against the NFL’s only winless team. That all changed with a short pass that C.J. Anderson turned into a spectacular 51-yard catch and run. The touchdowns didn’t stop until Manning’s day was done after three quarters.

Manning added two TD passes to Julius Thomas and two more to Emmanuel Sanders as the Broncos rebounded from last week’s loss at New England by beating up on the Raiders (0-9).

Cardinals 31, Rams 14: GLENDALE, Ariz. – The Cardinals put together another dominant

fourth quarter, but the victory was dampened by an injury to quarterback Carson Palmer.

Palmer went down in the final period, then backup Drew Stanton and the Arizona defense rallied the Cardinals with three touchdowns over a span of 3 minutes, 48 seconds.

Rookie John Brown’s diving grab of Stanton’s 48-yard touchdown pass put the Cardinals (81) up 17-14 with 7:40 to play. The pass came on the first series after Palmer hurt his left knee while trying to avoid the rush.

Palmer was able to walk off the field but a short time later was taken to the locker room on a cart.

Patrick Peterson got his first two interceptions of the season, returning the second 30 yards for a touchdown to make it 24-14. Moments later, Austin Davis fumbled and Antonio Cromartie returned it 14 yards for a score as Arizona outscored the Rams 21-0 in the fourth quarter.

St. Louis (3-6) was shut out in the second half.

At 8-1, the Cardinals have the best record in the NFL and their best after nine games since going 11-1 as the Chicago Cardinals in 1948.

Seahawks 38, Giants 17: SEATTLE – Marshawn Lynch rushed for a season-high 140 yards and career-best four touchdowns.

Russell Wilson threw two interceptions, the Seahawks committed three total turnovers, and Eli Manning picked apart Seattle’s secondary for the first half. It all didn’t matter because of Lynch leading Seattle’s unstoppable run game.

The 350 total yards rushing

by Seattle (6-3) were a franchise record and the most by any NFL team since Kansas City had 352 in 2012.

Lynch carried 21 times, but there was plenty of running to go around. Wilson added 107 yards on 14 carries and a 1-yard TD run with 5:19 left. Most of Wilson’s runs were designed as New York (3-6) failed to keep contain.

Jets 20, Steelers 13: EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Michael Vick threw two touchdown passes and the Jets forced four turnovers while shutting down Ben Roethlisberger to end an

Roethlisberger threw six touchdown passes in each of his last two games, and was playing in front of a MetLife Stadium crowd that appeared nearly half-filled with Terrible Towel-waving Steelers fans.

But the Jets (2-8) wouldn’t allow Roethlisberger to get into much of a rhythm.

Roethlisberger finished 30 of 43 for 343 yards and connected with Martavis Bryant for an 80-yard TD with 1:16 left.

The Steelers (6-4) attempted an onside kick, but Eric Decker recovered to seal it for the Jets – who avoided setting a franchise mark for consecutive losses.

Jaiquawn Jarrett had two interceptions, a sack and a fumble recovery for the Jets, who hadn’t won since beating Oakland in Week 1.

Lions 20, Dolphins 16: DETROIT – Matthew Stafford led Detroit to another thrilling victory in the final minutes, throwing an 11-yard touchdown pass to Theo Riddick with 29 seconds remaining.

Calvin Johnson had seven catches for 113 yards and a touchdown in his first game back from an ankle injury, and the Lions (7-2) won their fourth straight game. Their past three victories have been by a combined six points, all with fourth-quarter comebacks.

The Dolphins (5-4) managed one touchdown – after they

blocked a Detroit field goal attempt and Dion Jordan returned it deep into Lions territory.

Chiefs 17, Bills 13: ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. – Anthony Sherman recovered a fumble to set up Alex Smith’s 8-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.

Jamaal Charles also scored on a 39-yard run as the Chiefs (6-3) scored twice in span of 4:31 to overcome a 13-3 deficit. The Chiefs’ defense then made a stand at its 15 by forcing Kyle Orton to throw four consecutive incompletions and turn the ball over on downs.

Kansas City improved to 6-1 since opening the season with two losses. Charles finished with 98 yards rushing, while Smith went 17 of 29 for 177 yards.

Smith scored two plays after Sherman punched the ball out of the hands of Bills punt returner Leodis McKelvin and then pounced on the loose ball at Buffalo’s 26. That wasn’t the only Bills miscue in a game Buffalo settled for two field goals on four trips inside the Chiefs 20.

Marcell Dareus had three of Buffalo’s six sacks.

Cowboys 31, Jaguars 17: LONDON – Tony Romo returned after missing last week because of a back injury and helped the Cowboys snap a two-game losing streak by throwing three touchdown passes.

Originally hurt two weeks ago, Romo started for Dallas (7-

3) and completed 20 of 27 passes for 246 yards against the Jaguars (1-9) at Wembley Stadium.

This was the last of three regular-season NFL games this year in the British capital.

Romo threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Jason Witten in the first quarter and then hit Dez Bryant for a pair of TDs in the second, the first from 35 yards and the second from 68. Romo finished with a season-high passer rating of 138.8.

Ravens 21, Titans 7: BALTIMORE – Justin Forsett ran for 112 yards and two touchdowns to back a strong performance by the Baltimore defense.

The Ravens (6-4) bottled up rookie quarterback Zach Mettenberger, who went 16 for 27 for 179 yards and an interception in his first road start.

He was sacked five times and rarely got the chance to comfortably plant both feet in the pocket.

Tennessee didn’t get its initial first down of the second half until 4:37 was left in the game. Soon after that, newcomer Danny Gorrer intercepted a pass to clinch the victory.

The Titans (2-7) have lost seven of eight. It was 7-7 at halftime, but Tennessee had three three-and-outs in the third quarter while the Ravens took control.

Falcons 27, Buccaneers 17: TAMPA, Fla. – Matt Ryan threw for 219 yards and one touchdown, helping the Falcons stop a five-game losing streak that left the Bucs with a five-game skid of their own.

The Falcons (3-6) won for the first time since embarrassing their NFC South rivals 56-14 on Sept. 18, a game in which the Bucs (1-8) lost quarterback Josh McCown to a thumb injury.

McCown returned to Tampa Bay’s starting lineup for the first time since loss, throwing for 301 yards and two TDs. His 1-yard pass to Austin Seferian-Jenkins put the Bucs ahead 17-16 early in the fourth quarter. But Ryan drove the Falcons down the field, throwing a 5-yard touchdown pass to Roddy White and a 2-point conversion to Harry Douglas.

Steven Jackson scored on a 1-yard run and Matt Bryant kicked four field goals for the Falcons.

Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett looks to pass during the first half Saturday against Michigan State in East Lansing, Mich.

Ohio St. makes statement with its win over Spartans

By NOAH TRISTER The Associated Press EAST LANSING, Mich.

– Now it’s Ohio State’s turn to lobby for a berth in the college football playoff – a thought that seemed pretty far-fetched when the Buckeyes lost their quarterback and struggled through the first couple weeks of the season.

With J.T. Barrett performing brilliantly in place of an injured Braxton Miller, there’s no longer any doubt who the Big Ten’s top contender is in the national title race.

Barrett threw for three touchdowns and ran for two more in a sensational performance, and No. 13 Ohio State scored almost at will against Michigan State’s vaunted defense, beating the seventh-ranked Spartans, 49-37, on Saturday night.

With one overwhelming offensive display, the Buckeyes re-established themselves as the Big Ten’s dominant team under coach Urban Meyer, avenged their loss to Michigan State in last year’s conference title game, and boosted their case for a

berth in the sport’s new fourteam playoff.

“This is one for the ages,” said Meyer, in his third year as Ohio State’s coach. “That’s how much respect we had for our opponent going into it. We saw what they did.

They had one loss, and they were actually winning that one game until it kind of got away from them somehow at Oregon. We played a top-10 team and really played our best on the road.”

Ohio State (8-1, 5-0) came into the game ranked No. 14 by the playoff committee.

The Spartans (7-2, 4-1) were No. 8 and looked like the conference’s best hope to reach the playoff, but now they almost surely will drop out of consideration.

“The bottom line is we didn’t stop ’em,” Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said. “Disappointing. We had big hopes. At the end of the day, we didn’t get what we wanted. That’s the way life is.

We’ll regroup and move on.”

Barrett became the starting quarterback for the Buckeyes before the season because Braxton Miller needed shoulder surgery, and Ohio State lost at home to

Virginia Tech in early September. The Buckeyes have won seven straight since, and Meyer was asked after Saturday’s victory if he believes Ohio State is a playoff team.

“I think it is, because I love my team and I don’t know enough,” Meyer said.

“I haven’t studied the other teams really. If I have to go fight for this team, what they’ve done – very impressive.”

Barrett went 16 of 26 for 300 yards against the Spartans. Ohio State’s first drive of the game ended in a missed field goal, and another early possession fell apart because of penalties. Aside from that, the Buckeyes scored a touchdown every time they had the ball until they punted in the final minute of the game.

Ohio State rolled up 568 yards of offense against a Michigan State defense that was one of the nation’s best a year ago and had been plenty good this season as well.

“We definitely had something to prove,” running back Ezekiel Elliot said. “People were questioning our ability to come out and play on the big stage. Just coming into this game, no one believed in us.”

STICK A PITCHFORK IN ’EM A two-loss team you can safely scratch off the list is Notre Dame (7-2).

Surging Arizona State (8-1) beat the Fighting Irish, 55-31, thwarting Notre Dame’s comeback attempt with a late spurt.

The Fighting Irish, 10th in the playoff rankings, were low on signature victories coming in. A close loss with a disputed ending at Florida State might have been the highlight of Notre Dame’s resumé.

The Irish have Northwestern, Louisville and Southern California left. At 10-2, Notre Dame still could get into a big New Year’s bowl but will have a hard time making a case as one of the top four teams.

The Sun Devils, who lost, 62-27, at home to UCLA in September, are rolling. If Arizona State, ninth in the latest rankings, can win out, including a Pac-12 title game, it’ll be a lock for a playoff spot.

BEARS LOWER THE BOOM Baylor entered Saturday 12th in the playoff rankings, not getting a lot of respect from the selection committee.

That could change now.

The Bears were dominant in a 48-14 victory at Oklahoma and could leave the committee with an interesting decision after TCU pounded Kansas State, 41-20, later Saturday.

The Bears beat TCU last month with a 24-point fourth-quarter comeback.

Still, the Horned Frogs were ranked ahead of Baylor, which had no other victories against teams with winning records – until Saturday.

Baylor’s overall strength of schedule is still going to be pretty light, because of a cushy nonconference slate, but the Bears have answered their two biggest challenges, and committee chairman Jeff Long has talked about how important it is to have some signature wins.

NEW KING OF BIG TEN

All those showdown games on the schedule Saturday – and it was a 20-point underdog that shook up the playoff race.

For the second straight week a Southeastern Conference contender took a potentially devastating loss when No. 3 Auburn was upset, 41-38, at home by a Texas A&M team that came to Jordan-Hare Stadium reeling.

The Aggies had lost three straight SEC games – one more lopsided than the next – and barely scraped by Louisiana-Monroe at home last week.

They got better against Auburn. The Tigers fell behind big against the Aggies, and couldn’t pull off the type of improbable win that has become so common for them the last two seasons. Two fumbles involving Auburn quarterback Nick Marshall in the final 5 minutes, both in A&M territory, ended the Tigers’ comeback attempt.

Last week it was Georgia getting hammered by Florida that a put a dent in the SEC’s hopes of getting more than one team in the final four. Good luck trying to sell this as a “good loss” for Auburn. Texas A&M lost to Mississippi State, Mississippi and Alabama by a combined 142-51 before beating ULM, 21-16.

Still, don’t eliminate Auburn (7-2) just yet. The pile of one-loss teams is quickly turning into a pile of two-loss teams. The Tigers still have road games against Georgia and Alabama left to rebuild their resume. And by the time the regular season is done, few teams will be able to match Auburn’s schedule for degree of difficulty. If they can get a muddle of two-loss teams atop the SEC West standings, the tiebreakers could still fall the Tigers’ way and get them a spot in the conference title game.

But for now, slot Auburn into the “needs help” category of playoff contenders.

Alabama won’t need any help. The Tide escaped Death

Valley with a 20-13 overtime win against LSU to set up a showdown with No. 1 Mississippi State next week.

Newman’s late pass dooms Gordon at Phoenix

PHOENIX RACEWAY RESULTS

By JENNA FRYER The Associated Press AVONDALE, Ariz. – Kevin Harvick dominated a race he had to win to advance to the final round of NASCAR’s playoffs, while Jeff Gordon was knocked out when Ryan Newman completed a last-lap pass.

Harvick led 264 laps at Phoenix International Raceway on Sunday to earn an automatic spot next week in the four-man Chase field in the finale at Homestead. He has won the Phoenix fall race three years in a row, also won at the track in March and has a record six victories on the mile oval.

Now he takes Stewart-Haas Racing into the championship race Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway, where the four championship contenders will be seeking their first Sprint Cup title. Harvick came into Sunday ranked eighth in the eight-driver Chase field.

“Wow – I guess that’s what it feels like to hit a walkoff in the extra innings,” Harvick said.

Gordon finished second, but lost his bid for a fifth Sprint Cup championship when Newman knocked Kyle Larson into the wall on the final lap to finish 11th – and one point ahead of Gordon.

Denny Hamlin, the points leader after finishing fifth, and Joey Logano also advanced. The title will be decided by finishing order among the final four at Homestead.

Failing to advance with Gordon were Brad Keselowski, Matt Kenseth and Carl Edwards.

Driver Kevin Harvick (front) leads Jamie McMurray (left) and Joey Logano through Turn 2 during the Quicken Loans Race for Heroes 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race Sunday at Phoenix International Raceway in Avondale, Ariz.

Logano finished third, Keselowski was fourth and Edwards 15th.

Newman’s move on Larson in the final turn made for a stunning shakeup in the points.

Winless on the season, his first with Richard Childress Racing, he was aggressive with his pass of Larson to knock Gordon out of the finale.

“I didn’t take him out,” Newman said. “In a day or two, he’ll understand. It’s hard to rationalize that, but I did what I had to do. I don’t like racing that way.”

Gordon, a four-time winner this season and the points leader for most of the year, was denied a chance to race for his fifth title.

“I’m disappointed, I thought if we came out of here second, even

if it was to Kevin or Brad, I thought we’d still make it in,” Gordon said.

“That’s pretty disappointing to do all of that and it just makes last week that much more disappointing. I’m going to be thinking about that one for a while.”

Gordon was in position to win at Texas last week until a late caution forced the field into a restart that went bad when Keselowski tried to wedge his car into a small hole and ended up making contact with Gordon. He got a flat tire, spun and finished 29th to fall from first to fourth in the standings.

Still, he doesn’t blame Newman for doing what he had to do to get into the finale.

“That’s the system we have,” Gordon said.

Blackhawks use big 1st period to beat Sharks

By JAY COHEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Trevor van Riemsdyk planned to give the puck to his dad. For Sunday night at least, the goal belonged to him.

Van Riemsdyk and fellow defensemen Brent Seabrook and Niklas Hjalmarsson scored in the first period, leading the Blackhawks to a 5-2 victory over the San Jose Sharks.

There was some question whether van Riemsdyk’s first goal should have been awarded to Kris Versteeg, who was part of a scrum in front of San Jose goaltender Antti Niemi.

“I shot it and didn’t even know if it was mine or not. I hit something kinda halfway through and saw a bunch of our guys in front,” van Riemsdyk said. “I thought it might have gone off one of them and found out it was mine. It was pretty special.”

Bryan Bickell added a big goal in the third as the Blackhawks stopped a three-game home losing streak. Corey Crawford made 32 saves, including a nice stop on Patrick Marleau with the Hawks nursing a one-goal lead with 7:30 left.

Joe Pavelski had two goals for San Jose, which was coming off a 5-3 victory at Dallas on Saturday night. The Sharks’ seven-game road trip continues on Tuesday night at Florida.

“We didn’t play well in the first period. We didn’t do anything right and fell behind, 3-0,” defen-

seman Marc-Edouard Vlasic said.

“It’s tough to come back against a team like that.”

The Sharks trailed, 3-2, after two periods and had a chance to tie the game when David Rundblad was sent off for holding at 9:06 of the third. But the Hawks killed off the penalty, and Bickell put it away with his second goal of the season with 3:42 remaining.

Jonathan Toews added an empty-netter with 1:57 left. The captain also had an assist on van Riemsdyk’s goal.

“They’re a good hockey team, but I thought we settled down in the third and after that kill there I thought we were much better,” Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said.

Niemi finished with 32 stops.

The Hawks’ scoring spree in the first started when Toews sent a faceoff back to van Riemsdyk, who blasted a slap shot by a screened Niemi 8 minutes into the game.

Seabrook extended the lead to 2-0 at 14:10 when he scored on a one-timer off a pass from Brad Richards. With the sellout crowd of 21,489 still celebrating Seabrook’s third goal, Hjalmarsson used a nicely placed wrist shot to record his first goal of the season at 14:34.

It was the first time three defensemen scored in a single period for the Hawks since Frantisek Kucera, Igor Kravchuk and Steve Smith scored in the third period of an 8-1 victory over Edmonton on Nov. 27, 1992.

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Difficult deals give difficult decisions

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, an architect who was born in Germany but lived in the United States from 1944 until his death in 1969, said, “A chair is a very difficult object. A skyscraper is almost easier. That is why Chippendale is famous.”

Bridge players sit in chairs and face difficult objects -- the deals. This one, from a social game, is particularly taxing. How should the auction proceed after South opens one diamond (do you agree?) and West passes?

Yes, South might open two clubs, but his hand is a tad shy in high-card terms.

First, North must decide how to respond. Most would bid one spade, but if a 4-4 fit does not exist, bidding two clubs would be better.

Over one spade, South has no textbook rebid. Three diamonds is an underbid, and three no-trump (which shows a good long minor in a hand too strong for a three-diamond rebid) is unappealing with the low singleton club. My choice would be a two-heart reverse. It is not ideal, but at least it is forcing. Here, North would presumably rebid in no-trump, and the hard part would be staying out of a slam.

If North responds two clubs, South can rebid a game-forcing three diamonds. North will continue with three spades, and South is again in a quandary. I would continue with four diamonds, trusting that three no-trump is not the only making game.

Against six diamonds or six notrump, West must lead either major suit to disrupt declarer’s communications. Otherwise, declarer can establish dummy’s club suit and overtake his spade king with the ace to reach the dummy.

New drug cocktail offers encouraging Ebola news Dear Doctor K: Like everyone, I’m afraid that the Ebola virus could spread in the United States. There must be research underway to find treatments, and vaccines to prevent it in the first place. Please tell me there is.

Dear Reader: Infection with the Ebola virus is indeed frightening. In West Africa, the site of the latest outbreak of Ebola, more than half the people who have become infected with it have died. I doubt there will be an epidemic of Ebola in the U.S. and other developed nations, but there have been cases, and there will be more.

There is some encouraging news to report. Last month, an international research team developed a “cocktail” of several antibodies to the Ebola virus, called ZMapp.

(Antibodies attach themselves to the virus. This signals other immune system cells to kill it.)

This treatment was given to monkeys several days after they became infected with the virus. Most of the monkeys already were having symptoms from the infection when the treatment started. All of the animals treated with ZMapp survived. Animals that did not receive the treatment died.

But keep in mind that treatments that work in animals don’t always work in humans. Even though monkeys are more like humans than they are like other animals such as mice and rats, treatments that work in monkeys don’t always work in humans.

Another note of encouragement about ZMapp is that two U.S. health care workers who became infected with the virus while working in Africa were treated with the medicine. Each recovered, but that does not prove that the ZMapp treatment caused the recovery.

A second international

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff team recently reported that it had created a vaccine that protected monkeys against becoming sick with the Ebola virus. As with ZMapp, this encouraging result in monkeys does not guarantee that the vaccine will work in humans and be free of complications.

The first reported outbreak of Ebola virus infection in Africa occurred about 40 years ago.

There have been other outbreaks since, each producing terrible casualties.

Why didn’t we already have a proven treatment, and a proven vaccine, to use when this new Ebola outbreak began? The techniques for making ZMapp, and for making the vaccine, have been around for some time.

I believe the answer is that neither the government nor the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries invested enough in medical research. The government’s ability to support research is dependent on tax dollars, and no one likes to pay taxes. The private sector invests when it sees a big problem affecting lots of people -- people who can pay for the treatments and vaccines. Until the current outbreak, that didn’t seem likely with Ebola.

Every time I close a column saying we need to invest more in biomedical research, I get letters from some readers who say, “Money doesn’t grow on trees -- we just don’t have the money to support more research.” I believe that, as a society, we do have the money, and we are asking for trouble by not investing it to protect ourselves.

Real Life Adventures

Choice Dear Isn’t: Feeling as you do, decline the invitation.

This woman needs friends around her during this painful and traumatic time, and you do not qualify. To send a small gift would be both thoughtful and kind, because I am sure her life is extremely difficult now.

As to this couple having made a decision with which you do not agree, allow me to point out that not all pregnancies are planned, and this may be one of them.

Dear Abby: My folks are

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips in their mid-70s and have health problems. My oldest niece, “Riley,” will graduate from high school next spring and is considering going to a college near them. My parents recently told me that my brother is suggesting Riley move in with them.

The girl has some behavioral issues and is in counseling. She’s not an easy, happy or normal kid. My parents are extremely uncomfortable with the idea, but have not said anything to my brother.

I think they are afraid of a fight or causing hurt feelings. He is in denial about his daughter’s problems.

I’m concerned about my parents. At their age, I don’t think it’s fair to expect them to have another teenager in their home, much less one with issues. Is it my place to say something, and if so, what do I say? – Looking Out

For Mom And Dad Dear Looking Out: You should definitely say something, but not to your brother. Talk with your parents. Remind them that if they’re not OK with the arrangement your brother has proposed, it’s their responsibility to make plain that because of their ages and their health problems they’ll be unable to accommodate his request. Because it’s the truth, it shouldn’t cause an argument or hurt feelings.

Also, your brother will have plenty of advance notice that other living arrangements will have to be made for Riley.

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

The Argyle Sweater

Dear Abby: May I have some advice about a touchy subject? One of my boyfriend’s close friends is going through his third bout with cancer and the prognosis is not good. He is married with a healthy 3-year-old son. So imagine our surprise when his wife announced she’s pregnant.

This is a decision we do not support. I don’t know what they’re thinking, but if you are facing the reality that your spouse will not be around much longer, we don’t feel it is wise to bring another child into the world who will never know his or her father.

Some of her close friends want to throw her a “sprinkle,” and although I am only an acquaintance, I have been invited. How do I handle this? Should I attend and keep my thoughts to myself, decline and/or send a small gift in my absence? I have a hard time making small talk about subjects I don’t agree with.

Did I mention she does nothing but complain about how hard her life is now?

I’m afraid if I go and get involved, I’ll be on the hook down the road when she wants to complain about how hard it is to raise two children alone. – Isn’t My
