Woodstock weighs new ideas for courthouse

POLICE DEPARTMENTS PICK UP MILITARY SURPLUS

Council members say what they’d like to see By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com

received at little cost under the federal Law Enforcement Support Office program. They range from 60 cold-weather caps valued at $5.34 each to a strippeddown Humvee weather station for the McHenry County Emergency Management Agency, valued at almost $1 million, that cost the county just less than $370 to obtain. And Spring Grove’s new MRAP has company, records show. The police department also has recently acquired two dump trucks, an all-terrain vehicle, three Kawasaki Mules, a tractor, a forklift, a cargo trailer, a forklift trailer and a trailer-mounted military field kitchen. But free, or almost free, surplus gear comes with a

WOODSTOCK – Throw a brew pub, cultural center and office space into the mix. Woodstock officials’ ongoing effort to rejuvenate the historic Old Courthouse recently got more complicated. During a special brainstorming session this week, City Council members directed city staff to explore members’ own ideas for the building, after officials spent the year seeking private investors’ ideas on the Old Courthouse. The council’s vision, if achieved, would transform the building into a mixture of different spaces, anchored on the first floor by a brew pub or another restaurant with regional appeal. Other council ideas to fill out the Old Courthouse included a few small business incubators, office space, and a cultural or community center. “If it’s a whole building of galleries, incubators, and little itty-bitty things, then it’s an itty-bitty draw,” said Councilman Mike Turner. “Let’s shoot high, so we can find that anchor.” The decision to add more possibilities to the Old Courthouse’s future comes at an interesting time for the council members, as they try to redevelop a property the city acquired in 2011. Members recently allowed the Public House restaurant in Woodstock to relocate to the lower level of the building, under a 10-year lease agreement that includes a buyout option. In January, city officials started seeking proposals from investors interested in the property, as part of the city’s original agreement to find a private owner for both the Old Courthouse and adjoining Sheriff’s House. By the summer, the council received three proposals. A Texas-based investment corporation wanted to turn much of the two historic properties into one- and two-bedroom residential units.

More than 100 military firearms, mostly M-16 rifles, two armored vehicles, 14 trucks and 19 tactical shotguns, along with a long list of “general issue” equipment have been given to McHenry County police departments in the past eight years. In 1997, Congress expanded the Law Enforcement Support Office program to transfer excess Department of Defense equipment for general law enforcement purposes.

Local governments concerned about hidden costs Voice your opinion

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com The first notice that Spring Grove Village President Mark Eisenberg had that his police chief wanted to obtain a 40-ton armored vehicle was when he saw it parked behind Village Hall. A number of Chief Tom Sanders’ acquisitions at almost no cost through government surplus have been beneficial to the village, such as a Humvee that now does a yeoman’s job clearing snow with a plow attachment. But the answer Eisenberg received when he asked Sanders why the department needs a Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle designed to protect soldiers from mines and improvised explosive devices – just in case – did not satisfy him.

“As far as that machine goes, I’m as confused as you are as to why we need it,” Eisenberg said. The two MRAPs in McHenry County, the other now belonging to the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office for its SWAT team, are only two lines on a long spreadsheet of government surplus that has flowed to local police departments. A federal program now under scrutiny after police response to unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, has added millions of dollars worth of weapons and other military equipment to the inventories of state and local

law enforcement, according to newly-updated federal records obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. Items acquired range from the deadly to the harmless to the questionable. More than 100 military firearms, mostly old M-16 rifles, have been given to McHenry County police departments over the past eight years – records available to the public that track weapons only specify the county in which the department is located. Besides the MRAPs, county police departments over the past four years have snapped up 14 Humvees, some armored. Valued at $733,300, the sheriff’s office MRAP accounts for about a quarter of the $2.47 million in vehicles and equipment it listed in a May 2014 draft presentation on the items it has

U.S.: Militants use beheadings to make up for losses By LARA JAKES The Associated Press WASHINGTON – For months, Islamic State militants rampaged across Syria and Iraq, seizing cities, taking hostages and terrorizing all who dared to confront them. The tide began to turn in mid-August, when U.S. airstrikes pushed them from key Iraqi battlegrounds. Then, on Aug. 19, the group released a video that showed the behead-

ing of American freelance journalist James Foley. The pattern continued. Within days of a military defeat, the group would release images of more beheadings – at least nine over six weeks – of Western journalists, aid workers and Muslim soldiers. The tactic signals that even as the Islamic State group suffers battlefield losses, it is holding on to its edge in the propaganda war. U.S. offi-

BUSINESS

cials say that’s the only way the militants can continue to maintain support and attract new recruits. On Friday, the Islamic State group released a new video showing the beheading of British aid worker Alan Henning after nearly two straight weeks of daily airstrikes against their fighters. “Certainly since the bombing campaign, the reverses, they’re no longer boasting of taking places – because

they’re not taking places. They’re losing places,” Alberto Fernandez, who heads the State Department’s office for counterterrorism propaganda, said in a recent interview. “So what do they do? They boast about cutting people’s heads off. They’re trying to substitute that for military victory.” That may be some propaganda by the U.S itself. But the trend still is frightening, considering the Islamic State

group is holding what U.S. intelligence officials believe are as many as 20 hostages, including at least two Americans. This past week, the militants suffered a series of setbacks, with U.S. and allied airstrikes Friday hitting Syrian oil refineries and a training camp. Earlier strikes pushed militants back from some of their positions in Iraq. But the Islamic State group this past week also besieged

the Iraqi town of Hit and ambushed an Iraqi army unit north of Ramadi, kept its tight grip on Fallujah, and closed in on the Syrian town of Kobani. In the video of Henning’s beheading, a masked militant warns the U.S. that the gruesome attacks on individuals will continue as long as the airstrikes do. He also threatened an American hostage,

@NWHerald

Parsing income tax promises If you think the worst that can happen to Illinois taxpayers after the election is that the 67 percent income tax increase set to substantially expire Jan. 1 becomes permanent, you may be an optimist. Who is to say that lawmakers won’t raise it even higher? There’s no rule preventing them from jacking it up from 5 percent of our income to 6 percent or more. It can’t be dismissed as a possibility, given this state’s sad fiscal shape, and given the Democratic majority in Springfield’s sorry track record of broken promises. If a politician spends years telling lies, what’s one more? The close gubernatorial race between incumbent Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn and Republican challenger Bruce Rauner has become in some ways a referendum on the tax increase – whether to let it decrease to 3.75 percent as promised, or whether to make it permanent. Rauner’s plan calls for it to be phased out over four years, while his plan for jolly happy success puts Illinois back on its fiscal feet. Quinn favors making it permanent, lest the world end as we know it, until his economic plan comes to fruition, which at this point seems to be chanting “Illinois is making a comeback” over and over until we start believing it. (To my fellow Illinois journalists: Note my use of the verb “as promised” rather then “as scheduled” when it comes to the temporary tax’s expiration.) The gubernatorial election is the largest variable. If Quinn wins, the tax increase stays. If Rauner wins, lawmakers just may let it expire, halfway through the state’s July to June fiscal year, so he immediately inherits a mess. Or maybe they won’t. Quinn told the Daily Herald several weeks ago that a vote to make the tax hike permanent will happen in the lameduck session after the Nov. 4 election. To his credit, I think this is the first promise Quinn has made about the tax increase that I can believe, because that’s exactly how Democratic lawmakers passed the increase four years ago. “I’m going to win this election again, with truth-telling,” Quinn told the newspaper. Wow. Give him an axe and put him next to a fallen cherry tree, and he’s George Washington. But not so fast. The story of this income tax increase is one

VIEWS Kevin Craver fib after another. It started with a lie when Quinn approved a tax hike that was double what he promised on the 2010 campaign trail. Quinn campaigned on the need for a tax increase, but promised to veto any increase greater than 33 percent, or raising the flat tax from 3 to 4 percent on individuals. The General Assembly decided instead to increase it 67 percent on individuals, to 5 percent of income. They raised taxes 46 percent on businesses – from 4.8 to 7 percent, or 9.5 percent if you include the personal property replacement tax. Quinn broke his promise and signed the increase into law. Hours after that vote, at a news conference explaining the need for the tax hike, he laid the foundation for this current effort to break a promise made to voters. Quinn in that news conference described this tax increase as temporary three times, and assured voters that the increase will “pay our bills, get Illinois back on fiscal sound footing and make sure that our state has a strong economy” before it starts to sunset in 2015. We see today how well it worked. Budget addresses since 2011 have called for more spending while offering lip service to austerity, which means that Quinn and company never had any intention of the increase being temporary. It was billed as temporary solely to improve its odds of approval. Even then, and even with the dangling of high-paying state jobs in front of some outgoing lawmakers in exchange for a “yes” vote, it passed by the bare minimum. The reason I suspect that lawmakers after the election might consider raising the tax, besides their history of broken promises, is the $100 billion pension elephant, or should I say Pension Python, in the room. The state’s ballooning public pension obligations, which now take up more than 20 percent of the state general fund budget, ate practically all the revenue that the increase has generated. And lawmakers are staring down the barrel

of how the Illinois Supreme Court will rule on the 2013 pension reform bill being challenged by the state’s powerful public-sector unions. Justices sent a powerful signal that they likely will throw the bill out when they struck down a related reform law in July, which would have required state government retirees to start paying health insurance premiums. I’m betting that the upcoming ruling will do a lot more than kill the pension reform bill in dispute. If justices rule that the pension protection clause of the Illinois Constitution is an inviolable absolute, meaning state workers’ benefits are locked in for life on their first day of work, it would effectively kill any reform short of the impossibility of a referendum to remove said constitutional protection. It’s against this backdrop that lameduck lawmakers will reconvene for the fall veto session after the election. The mood could very well be, either in lameduck or the spring session that follows, that it would be fiscally reckless not to consider raising the income tax another percentage point or two. Another increase would play very well into state lawmakers’ dream of replacing the flat tax with a graduated “progressive” tax based on personal income. Taxpayers chafing about yet another tax increase may be more easily convinced to vote for a constitutional amendment with the promise that the tax rate on the middle class will “drop” back to 5 percent, forgetting that it was supposed to drop to 3.75 percent under the original promise. Sorry to say, but lawmakers are not going to let the income tax decrease as they promised. The sad truth is that a tax rate that stays at 5 percent for individuals, and a total of 9.5 percent on businesses that don’t have the crony capitalism clout to avoid it, is likely the best-case scenario. But have heart. Illinois is making a comeback.

97 enterprise zones in Illinois • HARVARD Continued from page A3 three to 10 feet wide, Eldredge said. There are 97 enterprise zones in the state. The closest ones to McHenry County are in Elgin, Waukegan/North Chicago, DeKalb County and Boone County, according to DCEO documents. A few years ago, the state decided to put a cap on the number of enterprise zones, said Dave Roeder, DCEO spokesman. In 2015, about half of the allowed amount of enterprise zones will be designated.

It includes improvement of the intersection and replacement of the bridge over the creek that feeds into the Fox River. • ROUTE 31: Work is ongoing to widen Route 31 to four lanes from Rakow Road in Crystal Lake south to Trinity Drive in Lake in the Hills. The $5.2 million project is

expected to be finished by next spring. • LAKE IN THE HILLS: The village plans to start repaving a number of roads and be done by the end of October. The roads include Prides Run from Heavens Gate to Starwood Pass; McPhee Drive from Creekview Lane to Mohican Trail; Brisbane Drive from Briarcliff Lane to Albrecht Road; Cynthia Drive; Rainmaker Run; Coolstone Bend; Burr Street from Plum Street to Oak Street; Hiawatha Drive from Bernyce

Deal does not guarantee grow center zoning approval cision on which areas receive a zone. The state offers sales tax exemptions for building materials for an expansion or buildout of a business in an enterprise zone, as well as a utility tax exemption. “Those benefits add up and can be quite substantial especially when the company is making an investment to expand,” said Roeder. Local entities also may decide offer property tax abatements on improvements made to buildings or properties within an enterprise zone, which Eldredge said Harvard plans to do. The city would abate its portion of the property tax bill. After an improvement

is made on a property, the taxes on the value of the improvement would be abated for the full amount the first four years, Eldredge said. The abatement would then drop to 50 percent for two years, and then to 25 percent for two years. A property owner would then pay the full amount of property taxes. The abatement would only apply to new development or expanded developments and has to be authorized by the enterprise zone. Even though the city won’t learn if it will get an enterprise zone for a year, Eldredge likes Harvard’s chances. “We’re cautiously optimistic,” he said.

• GROW CENTER Continued from page A3 a half before that. Though the agreement does not guarantee zoning approval for the cultivation center, it did translate to a letter of support from the city to the state on behalf of Phoenix Farms of Illinois as it headed into a competitive licensing process. The agreement was approved in a 6-1 vote with Alderman Andy Glab voting no. Glab favored the letter of support but had a problem with contribution agreements that also are in the agreement. He had requested the two items be separated into two votes. Under the agreement, Phoenix Farms of Illinois would make contributions of $20,000 or 1.75 percent of its net earnings, whichever is greater, to

the city for five years starting in April 2015 and then payments of $40,000 or 3.5 percent of net earnings for the five years after that. Contributions could follow in subsequent years if the agreement is extended. The company also would make annual contributions to the McHenry Riverwalk Foundation and the Historic Petersen Farm Foundation of $5,000 total for the first five years and then $10,000 total for the following five years. These contributions also could continue beyond that period. The city could change which organizations or what number of organizations receive the community contribution, the agreement said. The total amount given, though, would not change. Any approval granted by the McHenry City Council

would be contingent upon Phoenix Farms receiving a license from the state to open the facility. The state’s medical marijuana pilot program allows for 22 cultivation centers spread across the state, one in each state police district. McHenry County shares a district with DeKalb, DuPage, Kane and Lake counties. Nine applications, including Phoenix Farm’s, have been submitted for that district, according to the Illinois Department of Agriculture. A total of 159 applications have been submitted statewide. Two applications have been submitted to the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation requesting to open the one medical marijuana dispensary that will be allowed in McHenry County.

LOCAL NEWS 5

CLPD, Algonquin say there isn’t a need for the equipment Officials: • MILITARIZATION Continued from page A1 cost of maintaining it, especially vehicles. And at least one government agency – the McHenry County government that holds the sheriff’s office’s purse strings – is contemplating changing its policies to have a say in the matter.

BARGAIN PRICES Congress created the LESO program in the early 1990s to transfer excess Department of Defense equipment for use in drug enforcement activities. Congress expanded the program in 1997 to allow departments to acquire equipment for general law enforcement purposes. Critics have blamed the program, along with drug asset forfeiture laws that allow small police departments to afford and maintain SWAT teams and specialized gear, for what they call the ongoing “militarization” of America’s law enforcement. Dressing and equipping police officers like soldiers makes them act like soldiers, they argue, and they point most recently to the crackdown on protesters following the police shooting of an African-American teenager in Ferguson, a St. Louis suburb. Surplus is tracked by two categories: tactical gear such as guns, armored vehicles and night vision equipment; and general issue, meaning everything else. The Defense Logistics Agency that administers the LESO program tracks battle gear for as long as a police department has it – if a police department doesn’t want it anymore, it has to give it back. While general issue can be tracked to individual departments, it is only kept on the federal books for one year. Illinois police departments now have more than $35.6 million in tactical issue on the books. As for general gear, de-

partments in the past year or so acquired more than 28,000 pieces of issue worth $29.4 million. Police departments in 13 counties, including McHenry, now have MRAPs. Most are in the service of counties with larger populations, such as the collar counties and those near Rockford and Springfield. But besides Spring Grove, the list also includes a police department in far southern Franklin County, which has 39,561 residents. Departments in another seven counties have one or more smaller tactical wheeled vehicles or armored trucks, according to federal records. Three counties – Lake, Ogle and Stephenson – have acquired helicopters. For some reason, bayonets are counted as general issue, despite being are battlefield weapons that can be attached to military rifles to either deter or eviscerate an opponent. Nine Illinois police departments over the past year have acquired bayonets or “combat knives” under LESO. While the Joliet Police Department received 50 bayonets, the rest went to small downstate county and local departments. The department protecting the small town of Breese, population 4,221, received 14 bayonets, or one for each of its 12 officers plus a few spares. Ten went to the police department of Loami, population 804.

Ten of the M-16s were given years ago to the Crystal Lake Police Department, which then had its own SWAT team, Deputy Chief Derek Hyrkas said. But the surplus weapons are no longer used. For its individual officers, the department purchased its own AR-15s, a modern variant of the M-16. What’s more, the department earlier this year disbanded its SWAT team and joined the Northern Illinois Police Alarm System, a cooperative agency that fields its own team. The department does not partake in acquiring other military surplus, Hyrkas said. Neither does the Algonquin Police Department, Chief Russ Laine said. He has not sought out surplus in his 29 years as chief. “There was never an item that we felt we needed,” Laine said. While Hyrkas defended the need for individual officers to have access to high-powered and accurate weapons like the AR-15, he said the department is in the process of returning the unused M-16s back to the government through LESO. “There’s always a balance between how people would view us as too aggressive with equipment. But you see school shootings and workplace shootings where people come in with advanced weaponry. We want to protect our officers and protect people from those who would go out and do other people harm,” Hyrkas said.

NO THANKS While deadly, most of the military weapons given to state and local law enforcement are not top-of-the-line. The 112 M-16 rifles given to county law enforcement agencies are a much older variant no longer used by the military. The 19 12-gauge shotguns received are more modern, but federal surplus also includes 14 older M-14 rifles and a dozen .45-caliber Colt 1911 handguns, which for 70 years were the sidearm of choice for the armed forces.

HIDDEN COSTS The mobile Humvee weather station that the sheriff’s office got for the Emergency Management Agency can’t forecast anything. All of the meteorological equipment has been stripped from it. Agency Director David Christensen is well aware of that. He didn’t need the forecasting equipment. He needed the Humvee because it’s equipped to tow other wheeled vehicles, and he needs a way to tow his agency’s two command

All options still being explored

sociate County Administrator for Finance Ralph Sarbaugh said. Besides the MRAPs and the Humvees, the sheriff’s office has obtained for itself three ATVs, a Kawasaki Mule and four motorcycles, records show. It acquired a semitrailer for the Division of Transportation, three motorcycles for the Conservation District, and two vans for building operations. “It adds cost to the overall budget. There are now more fuel and maintenance costs, they all have to be on the automobile or equipment insurance, and some of that gets to be quite expensive,” Sarbaugh said. The county’s proposed budget policy, updated every year, now contains a recommendation by Sarbaugh that any acquisition of government surplus require County Board approval if it will result in additional costs for maintenance, fuel, insurance, storage, tracking and training. The County Board has not yet taken up the budget policy for a vote. “The County Board is responsible for all facilities and equipment of the county, and even though it’s free, it’s not free,” Sarbaugh said. Eisenberg, the Spring Grove village president, said that Chief Sanders’ goal in acquiring surplus has been to help the village obtain needed goods at discount, not to militarize his police force of 14 fulland part-time officers. “If they’re willing to give it away, he’s willing to find a use for it,” Eisenberg said. That being said, Eisenberg added he will ask the board’s Safety Committee to look into the cost of maintaining and operating surplus, and specifically what the goal of the police department is with respect to the MRAP. “If it’s something that’s going to be a parade monument … [finances] are very tight. Things may be free, but what’s the long-term cost?” Eisenberg said.

trailers and large emergency generators to keep critical facilities powered in the event of a prolonged outage. Given that recent disasters have included floods, Christensen said a military vehicle could prove useful. “What we learned in the [2013] floods was that it was hard to get around, and this will allow us to get [into a disaster area] a little further than we could,” Christensen said. Christensen said the agency’s vehicle fleet is still smaller than it was when he took the reins three years ago. He most recently got rid of the agency’s command vehicle, which was rarely used, expensive to maintain, and increasingly irrelevant given advances in first-responder communications. But the new Humvee, like the sheriff’s office’s acquisition of an MRAP and other vehicles, could end up causing county government a budget headache. The Humvee’s desert tan paint job, like that of the SWAT team’s new MRAP, needs to be painted over. Emergency management put in a supplemental funding request to county staff because the department has no budget line item for such work. The sheriff’s office does because it has a garage and maintains a fleet of vehicles. But while acquiring MRAPs only cost the sheriff’s office and the Spring Grove Police Department a respective $1,975 and $4,000, there will be costs to their respective governments to convert them from battlefield to domestic law enforcement use, such as new paint, graphics, and installing lights. And of course, there’s the cost of insurance and maintenance. This presents a quandary for county government – while the sheriff’s office has a vehicle budget, vehicle and liability insurance is handled by one fund for all departments, As-

• COURTHOUSE Continued from page A1 A North Barrington-based investor, teaming up with the owner of La Petite Creperie & Bistro restaurant on the Square, wanted only to acquire the Sheriff’s House and build a restaurant and tourism museum. A team of area educators wanted to build a nontraditional school at the location. Council members have expressed lukewarm feelings about the proposals. After appearing to change directions on the Old Courthouse this week, city officials were adamant that they aren’t scrapping investors’ proposed ideas for their own. “No, not at all,” said Mayor Brian Sager. “The [Request for Proposal] process has always been open-ended. ... The council has always been very open to the fact that it’s an opportunity in process.” City Manager Roscoe Stelford said the council simply wants to explore all options for the Old Courthouse before making a decision on its future. Members do ultimately have the final say on how to redevelop the property, he said. “They didn’t shut the door on the proposals that are currently out there. ... But they did want staff to do some more exploration to see the likelihood of getting that exact vision they want,” Stelford said.

HOW DOES THIS TREATMENT WORK?

Over 100 million Americans suffer from knee and joint pain? This pain accounts for 25 percent of all visits to primary care physicians and half of all anti-inﬂammatory drug prescriptions. Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you could get rid of your knee pain? Where would you go, what would you do? What would you give for a day, a week or a lifetime of pain-free mobility? We are pleased to announce that knee pain sufferers don’t have to wait any longer to get the most advanced, non-surgical, FDA approved treatment. If you suffer from any degree of knee pain, we invite you to regain control of your life by visiting Superior Health & Wellness, a state-of-the-art medical facility.

We use diagnostic ultrasound, allowing the doctor to pinpoint problem areas with extreme accuracy. A viscosupplement is then injected, and the healing process begins. Viscosupplementation bonds with naturally occurring joint fluid to create a lubricating and cushioning layer. It reduces pain, inflammation and swelling of the joint. Patients compare the treatment to getting a shot at the doctor’s office, and report little pain or discomfort.

WHAT IS INJECTED INTO THE KNEE? Hyaluronic acid is similar to substances that occur naturally in your joint. The outside of the joint (joint capsule) is comprised of a sturdy, fibrous tissue. The lining of the joint capsule contains synovial cells, which secrete a thick, viscous synovial fluid. Hyaluronic acid contributes to the viscous nature of the joint fluid, nourishes the cartilage, helps eliminate waste products, lubricates the joint and acts as a shock absorber inside the joint. Hyaluronic acid is reduced or lost from those who suffer from osteoarthritis. It is similar to changing the oil in your car. If your car were to run low on oil, you would have some serious wear and tear on the moving parts.

WHAT IS OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA)? Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis. In osteoarthritis, the surface layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows the bones under the cartilage to rub together, resulting in pain, swelling and loss of motion of the joint. Although in some people it progresses quickly, in most individuals joint damage develops gradually over years.

WHAT CAUSES OSTEOARTHRITIS? The exact cause of osteoarthritis is unknown. Factors that might cause it include the following: • Being overweight • Getting older (wear and tear) • Joint injury • Joints that are not properly formed (alignment/ imbalance problems) • A genetic defect in the joint cartilage • Stresses on the joints from certain activities, including sports, work and leisure activities

WILL MY PAIN GO AWAY OVER TIME? ✔ Do you wake up with knee pain? ✔ Does your knee pain keep you from certain activities? ✔ Have you been told you need a knee replacement? ✔ Are you active and sometimes suffer from sore knees? ✔ Do you take medications for knee pain? ✔ Do you have difﬁculty going up and down stairs due to knee pain? ✔ Are you considering surgery to alleviate knee pain? ✔ Have you tried everything to get rid of knee pain with out success? If you answered yes to at least 4 of these questions, you are ready to experience the relief and healing found at Superior Health & Wellness.

Clarion Project: Militants want to demoralize Kurdish enemies • BEHEADINGS Continued from page A1 identified as Peter Kassig, would be next. “It is only right that we continue to strike the neck of your people,” the masked militant said. Violence has been a focal point of Islamic State group propaganda, to show the militants’ might and recruit the thousands of foreign fighters who have rushed to join them. When they captured Mosul, Iraq, in June, they beheaded security forces, raped women and terrorized residents into following a strict interpretation of Sharia, the system of Islamic law. But the group had held Western hostages for months and, in some cases, even years. Not until the airstrikes began, weakening the group’s momentum, did the extremists start beheading the white Westerners. In the Foley video, an unidentified fighter warned that American journalist Steven Sotloff would be next if the U.S. campaign did not stop. The airstrikes continued, and Sotloff was beheaded in a video released Sept. 2, two days after the U.S. helped force the Islamic State group from Amirli, Iraq.

Breast cancer fight involves everyone More than 200,000 American women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year, and about 40,000 women will die from it in 2014, according to the American Cancer Society. However, the death rates from breast cancer have been on the decline since 1989, according to the American Cancer Society, and the decrease is believed to stem, in part, from earlier detection through screenings. And that’s where we all come in for this fight. After skin cancer, breast For the record cancer is the most common cancer We all can do more to raise in U.S. women. awareness besides wearing Breast cancer is pink. the second leading cause of cancer death in women, exceeded only by lung cancer. Breast cancer, unfortunately, touches most Americans in some direct or indirect way. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which began about 30 years ago as a way to promote breast cancer awareness, share information about the disease and provide greater access to screening services to women across the country. We’ve seen the numbers trend in the right direction, but we haven’t won this fight yet. The best way for a woman to reduce the risk of dying from breast cancer remains early detection through regular self-examinations and scheduling annual mammograms after the age of 40. For more than four years, mammograms and other such services have been available to McHenry County women at Centegra Gavers Breast Center, 360 N. Terra Cotta Road, Crystal Lake. In an effort to highlight the importance of screenings locally, Gavers Breast Center hosts weekly events called Mammo Mondays, during which a variety of screenings are offered. Why not start your week with an important health check? Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital’s Breast Care Center, 450 West Highway 22, Barrington, offers next-day results if you get a mammogram performed Monday through Thursday. We all can do more to raise awareness besides wearing pink. Donate to the National Breast Cancer Awareness Foundation. Volunteer at an event this month. Do what you can in this all-important struggle to beat breast cancer.

New type of mission Hundreds of Fort Bliss soldiers are headed to an important and unique mission in West Africa, trying to slow the spread of the deadly Ebola virus. The Pentagon announced the deployment Tuesday. The purpose of the mission is to help build a medical infrastructure in West Africa to disrupt and – hopefully – end the Ebola epidemic now sweeping that region. Rear Adm. John Kirby, a Pentagon spokesman, was explicit on what the U.S. soldiers would not do: “U.S. military personnel are not and will not be providing direct care to Ebola patients.” The stakes could not be higher. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that the number of Ebola cases could reach 1.4 million by January without proper intervention. But prompt action can make a huge difference. ... The U.S. military mission is part of a broader effort to build the infrastructure necessary to meet the goals outlined by the CDC. The announcement of the deployment of the Fort Bliss soldiers came on the same day the CDC confirmed the first Ebola case diagnosed in the United States, involving a man in Dallas who had recently travelled in West Africa. So it’s natural that families of soldiers deploying to Africa will have concerns about possible exposure to the deadly virus. Pentagon spokesman Kirby assured that all proper precautions would be taken. “All the troops that are going are getting trained on personnel protective equipment and on the disease itself,” he said. Force protection is always the top concern for the U.S. military on missions, and the fight against Ebola is no exception. This is a different sort of mission for the U.S. military, but it is crucial. ... Containing the epidemic is not just a public health issue in Africa and elsewhere. It also is a national security issue for the United States. A spreading epidemic would create political instability across West Africa and potentially elsewhere as the virus spreads. We wish the Fort Bliss soldiers – as well as other U.S. service members – Godspeed on this vital mission. The El Paso Times

IT’S YOUR WRITE Shrink County Board To the Editor: The good old boys on the County Board have circled their wagons yet again. The same group that did not punish those who were found guilty of violating the Open Meetings Act to gerrymander their County Board districts now proclaim having the largest and most expensive County Board in the region is just what the taxpayers need. These career politicians – who receive lifetime pension and health benefits for attending (or in many cases not attending) two meetings a month and receive payment and benefits exceeding $40,000 a year – like things just as they are. The good old boys attack state Rep. Jack Franks for advocating for smaller government. They claim Franks is being political. In reality, Franks chaired the Local Government Consolidation Commission for the state of Illinois, and this was one of their findings. It’s ironic that a bunch of Republican good old boys are fighting for larger and more expensive government while the Democrat is the lone elected official fighting for the taxpayers.

Because he is a successful small business owner in McHenry County, he understands the value of the private sector and the soaring taxes we pay to live here. On the other hand, his opponent has received close to $17,000 from teachers unions, which lavishly fund his campaign. Arne Waltmire claims he’s going to cut our county government to save taxpayers money. Let me ask this question: Has any paid statewide union official (he’s a regional officer for an Illinois teachers union and a retired school teacher) ever vowed and succeeded to cut jobs? Let’s be honest, Waltmire will answer only to the solidarity of the union, not to the taxpayers. Vote for Chuck Wheeler. We need someone who will honestly

Obama spreads blame around for ISIS rise “No one should be ashamed to admit they are wrong, which is but saying, in other words, that they are wiser today than they were yesterday.” – Alexander Pope President Obama is known for wanting to “spread the wealth around,” but now he has gone a step further. He is spreading blame around for his failure to notice the rapid rise of ISIS in Iraq and Syria. On “60 Minutes” last Sunday night, the president, who tends to use the personal pronoun when taking credit for perceived successes, blamed his Defense Intelligence Agency chief, James Clapper, for bad intelligence about ISIS. In 2008, when he ran for president, Mr. Obama blamed President George W. Bush for believing bad intelligence about Iraq’s Saddam Hussein and his supposed possession of weapons of mass destruction. Members of the intelligence community quickly responded to Mr. Obama’s assertion that they got it wrong. The UK Daily Mail online quotes an unnamed national security staff member as saying the president has received “highly accurate predictions” about the rise of

VIEWS Cal Thomas ISIS since before the 2012 election. Perhaps if the president spent more time reading his Presidential Daily Briefs (PDB) and less time on the golf course or at political fundraisers, he might have known. Or maybe he did know, but didn’t care. He seems more interested in the socalled “war on women” than he does the very real terrorist war against the West. Evidence of the rise of ISIS was visible in the terrorist group’s conquering of Fallujah at the beginning of this year. Many in the intelligence community predicted ISIS would try to seize more Iraqi territory, which it has. Harry S. Truman had a sign on his desk that said, “The Buck Stops Here.” With President Obama, the “buck” never gets to him, unless he can claim credit for something. Then he willingly and very publicly accepts responsibility and editorial kudos from friendly media. In such cases, it’s always “my” administration, and “I ordered.” But

when something goes wrong – whether in domestic policy over the struggles with Obamacare, or in foreign policy with Russia and the war on terror – it’s someone else’s fault. He didn’t know about it. His underlings failed him. Bush is to blame. It’s those uncompromising House Republicans. It’s Fox News. It’s never him. The focus on ISIS has diverted attention from what is an immediate and far greater threat (though they are all part of the same poisoned brew). That would be Iran, which subsidizes terrorism, even while pretending to decry it to westerners who prefer to hear what they want to hear, rather than see what is right in front of them. Following on the heels of a sobering speech by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu before the UN General Assembly about threats from ISIS, Hamas and Iran, Ron Dermer, the Israeli ambassador to the United States, called Iran’s quest for a nuclear bomb “a thousand times” more dangerous than ISIS. He’s right. The main impediment to defeating Islamic radicalism is that we still do not treat it as a real war. As terrorist incidents

increase within the U.S., many times from Muslim converts, some, according to NBC News, radicalized in prison by chaplains, this and previous administrations appear more intent on domestic political sensibilities than about doing what is necessary to stop them. The enemy knows this and uses those sensibilities to their advantage and our disadvantage. If we fought World War II the way we are fighting this war, Hitler’s face might be on our money and Japan might dominate all of Asia. It’s going to take more than airstrikes against ISIS targets and the arrest of terrorists after they commit heinous acts to defeat this threat to our security and way of life. If we ignore the threat, we will lose the war, but if we’re proactive, we just might win it. Blaming others for one’s failure is not a strategy for victory. It’s what losers do.

Historian to donate Town has its hand in 1000s of pumpkin pies notes on famous Lincoln photograph By DAVID MERCER The Associated Press

By DON BABWIN The Associated Press CHICAGO – It’s one of the most famous Abraham Lincoln photographs, largely because no one knew the picture of the dead president lying in an open coffin existed for nearly a century until a 14-year-old boy found it. On Tuesday, Ronald Rietveld – the boy who made the discovery and is now a retired historian – will donate his original notes about the picture to the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum in Springfield. The photo marks one of the last chapters of a story that began in April 1865, just days after Lincoln was assassinated in Washington. On a stop in New York City, one of a number of places Lincoln’s remains were displayed while being taken by train to Springfield for burial, a photographer was allowed to take a picture of the president in an open coffin. Lincoln’s secretary of war, Edwin M. Stanton, apparently heard about the photograph and ordered it and all prints and negatives destroyed. All were, except for one sent to Stanton. Rietveld enters the story in the early 1950s when, as a teenager fascinated with Lincoln, he

attended the dedication of a collection of Lincoln-related items at the University of Iowa. Harry Pratt, the state historian of Illinois and a Lincoln scholar, was so impressed with Rietveld that he invited him to Springfield to see the 16th president’s home and tomb. Pratt also let Rietveld look through papers of John Nicolay and John Hay, who were White House secretaries when Lincoln was president. Hay’s daughter donated the papers to the Illinois State Historical Library in 1943. Rietveld came upon an envelope sent to Nicolay in 1887 by Stanton’s son, who explained that he’d found some of his father’s papers and thought Nicolay might want them. At first he didn’t believe what he was seeing. “My first reaction was, ‘This can’t be’ because I knew Lincoln photography well enough to know there were no photographs of Lincoln in the coffin, there were no such pictures, period,” Rietveld, now 77, said in a phone interview Saturday. Pratt told Rietveld to keep quiet about the photo until he could determine its authenticity. Rietveld boarded a bus with his secret and returned home to Iowa where he didn’t say a word to anyone, including his mother.

STATE BRIEFS Snow falls in Rockford, just misses record ROCKFORD – Snow is making an appearance in Rockford earlier in the fall than all but one time since they started keeping records. The Rockford Register Star reported that snow started falling early Saturday morning – just one day after the earliest snow on record fell in the city on Oct. 3, 1951. The snow and wind have added up to temperatures that if they stay in the low 40s as expected, will give this Oct. 4 the coldest high temperature on record.

Waukegan teachers strike will extend to third day WAUKEGAN – Waukegan’s approximately 17,000 students will not be returning to the classroom on Monday as the school district and the teachers union remain apart in contract talks. The two sides have agreed to meet early Monday in an effort to resolve their differences over salary, health care benefits and employee conditions.

Teachers went on strike Thursday morning after the district and the Lake County Federation of Teachers failed to come to terms. Lake County Federation of Teachers president Mike McGue says the union’s negotiations team was at the federation’s quarters on Friday reviewing contract proposals. District 60 officials on Friday criticized the union’s stance in the talks, contending its focus on “more money for less work” would be detrimental to the quality of education in the district.

MORTON – Every year between August and early November, Steve Beuttel eats a lot of pumpkin pie. “I try to make it every day, and I’m usually pretty good at it” – it being what he calls quality control. Beuttel is the operations manager for the Libby’s pumpkin cannery that’s at the epicenter of the canned-pumpkin world: the small central Illinois town of Morton. For 13 or so weeks, a seemingly endless line of big rigs delivers pumpkins – millions of them – that’ll become countless pies and loaves of sweet, fresh-baked pumpkin bread. Somewhere between 80 and 85 percent of all the canned pumpkin consumed in the United States comes from this cannery, owned by parent company Nestle USA. That gives Morton a pretty good claim to the title it embraces, Pumpkin Capital of the World. And in a good

as many pumpkins were left to rot in deep, muddy fields. “About 10 days before Thanksgiving that year, we put out an alert,” Nestle spokeswoman Roz O’Hearn said. “’You better buy it when you see it because we’ve had to suspend the harvest.’ ... We had reports that people were going into their local su-

permarkets and, where they would see it, people would like sweep the shelf [of cans].” Pumpkins aren’t quite everything in Morton, but they mean a lot to the former farming town – providing an annual festival, about 150 seasonal cannery jobs and another 50 or so year-round in this town of 16,000. Pumpkins give Morton an identity beyond being a bedroom community for nearby Peoria, said John Ackerman. He grows 30 acres of pumpkins for Nestle and another 30 to sell from his farm. “We’re the people that have pumpkin pancakes at our Pumpkin Festival,” he said. “It’s fun. We understand just how much Midwest Americana that is. We enjoy it.” Other than the arrival of Interstate 74 in the 1960s, no other event quite defines Morton as much as the beginning of pumpkin canning in the 1950s, according to Mary Lynn, curator of the history room at the Morton Public Library.

Airports, airlines and Ebola: 5 things you need to know DALLAS – The news that a man flew from Liberia to the U.S. after exposure to Ebola, and wound up in a hospital isolation ward, has led to calls for tougher measures to protect Americans, such as a ban on flights from countries hit by the epidemic. Federal health officials and airlines have dismissed any risk to passengers who flew with the man last month and say they are protecting travelers by screening passengers and wiping down airplane cabins nightly. Five things to know about efforts to contain transmission of the virus on planes:

PASSENGER SCREENING

IN THE AIR

CLEANING PLANES

Airlines are required to report deaths of ill passengers who meet certain conditions to the CDC before landing in the U.S. Morgan Durrant, a spokesman for Delta Air Lines, said flight attendants are trained to spot anyone who looks or reports feeling ill. Crew members can feel the passenger with a gloved hand. They can ask if there is a doctor on board the plane, or consult experts at the CDC or the University of Pittsburgh’s medical center. The procedures, which have been around for years, are approved by CDC and the UN’s World Health Organization. “They are the experts, and they haven’t issued any guidelines that we need to do anything we are not already doing,” Durrant said.

Most airlines say they clean their planes at least daily, usually overnight. United Airlines said that its planes receive a “thorough cleaning” every night, including wiping tray tables and armrests with disinfectant and using heavy-duty, all-purpose cleaners on lavatories and galleys. Duncan flew on two United Airlines planes on Sept. 20 – from Brussels to Dulles International Airport near Washington, then another plane to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. Those planes are back flying within the U.S.

Airlines and their shareholders fear a repeat of the 2003 outbreak of SARS, or severe acute respiratory syndrome, which crippled travel in Asia. Airline and health officials said that while SARS is airborne, Ebola is transmitted only by contact with the blood, sweat or other bodily fluids of an infected person or corpse. Airline stocks fell Wednesday, when details of Duncan’s travels emerged. They rallied sharply on Friday, as a pickup in hiring boosted stocks overall and the CEOs of American Airlines and British Airways reported seeing no drop in travel bookings from the Ebola scare.

NATION BRIEF

The CDC has quarantine stations at 20 major U.S. airports and border crossings. Similar to what occurs during a bomb threat, a plane with a highly contagious person could land and taxi to a remote area away from crowded terminals, and medical crews could be dispatched to the plane. The federal government also has a “Do Not Board” list of people who are contagious and considered likely to fly.

FLOOR NOW

Passengers boarding planes in the outbreak zone have their temperatures taken and answer questions designed to reveal contact with anyone infected with Ebola. Thomas Eric Duncan registered 97.3 degrees. The lack of fever indicated to federal health officials that Duncan wasn’t contagious when he flew from Liberia to Belgium and on to the U.S. Critics see shortcomings in the system. Ebola’s long dormancy period – up to 21 days – means a passenger could be infected with the Ebola virus and not show symptoms. And the questionnaire relies on the truthfulness of the respondent. Liberian authorities said Duncan failed to disclose that he had helped carry a pregnant

Hong Kong protesters stage defiant rally Gay marriage debate By KELVIN CHAN and JOANNA CHIU The Associated Press HONG KONG – Pro-democracy protesters were defiant in the face of attacks by opponents and warnings by the Hong Kong government to clear the streets, staging a massive rally Saturday evening in the downtown business district they’ve occupied for a week. “Democracy now! Democracy in Hong Kong!” thousands chanted as speakers from the movement seeking wider political reforms for this former British colony urged them to persist in their campaign. The rally lasted hours, with participants at times clapping and cheering as a stream of speakers and singers addressed them and performed popular songs. “We are not seeking revolution. We just want democracy!” said Joshua Wong, a 17-year-old student leader. “We hope there will be no violence,” he said. “It would be unfortunate if this movement ended with bloodshed and violence.” After the rally ended, people grew nervous due to rumors that police would act to clear out the protesters in the middle of the night. But big crowds still filled the protest area after midnight. Standoffs between the protesters and their antagonists

An instigator is taken from the crowd by pro-democracy student protesters after a scuffle with local residents Saturday in Mong Kok, Hong Kong. Friction between pro-democracy protesters and opponents of their weeklong occupation of major Hong Kong streets persisted Saturday as police denied they had any connection to criminal gangs suspected of inciting attacks on largely peaceful demonstrators. grew ugly during the day, as the two sides traded insults and at times taunted police. The city’s leader said streets occupied by the protest must be opened back up by Monday. Although the mostly student-led protesters have stuck to their pledges of nonviolence, holding up their arms to show peaceful resistance, some shouted abuse at people who gathered to challenge their occupation of a major street in the gritty, blue-collar Mong Kok district, which is home to many migrants from the Chinese mainland. “Go back to the mainland,”

some shouted, cursing them in the local dialect of Cantonese. Minor skirmishes broke out constantly, broken up by police or bystanders. Adding to the disorder, some residents dumped water from their apartments onto the people below. The students accused police of failing to protect them from attacks Friday by mobs intent on driving them away, shouting “Black Police!” – a reference to their claim that the police had allied with “black societies,” or criminal gangs, to clear out the protesters. The claim was vehement-

ly denied by the government. The city’s top leader, Chief Secretary Leung Chun-ying, appeared on television Saturday evening to once again urge everyone to go home, saying things needed to get back to normal by Monday. “There are many problems to be resolved in society, but the right way is through rational communication to seek common ground while holding back differences,” he said. “Not fighting on the streets, which makes things worse.” On Friday night and early Saturday, police arrested 19 people during a night of running brawls in which at least 12 people and six officers were injured. Eight men were believed to have backgrounds linked to triads, or organized crime, said Senior Superintendent Patrick Kwok Pak-chung. Those arrested were facing charges of unlawful assembly, fighting in public and assault, Kwok said. Officials vehemently denied rumors they might have coordinated with the gangs to clear the streets. “Such rumors linking us to ‘black societies’ are utterly unfair,” Hong Kong’s visibly agitated security chief, Lai Tung-kwok, told reporters. Cheung Tak-keung, the deputy police superintendent, said the police were trying their best to maintain “buffer zones” between people of opposing views.

puts GOP into 3 camps By DAVID CRARY The Associated Press

NEW YORK – As samesex marriage cases cascade through the federal courts, Republican politicians find themselves awkwardly split into three camps. There’s a small but growing number who favor legalizing gay marriage, a hard-core faction that continues to denounce it, and a sizable group in between that seems to wish the issue would disappear. At one end of the spectrum, at least eight GOP members of Congress have endorsed same-sex marriage, and two openly gay GOP candidates for the House hope to join them. In Massachusetts, Richard Tisei has run ads featuring his husband. In California, Carl DeMaio ran an ad showing him and his longterm partner in San Diego’s gay-pride parade. On the other flank, conservative Republicans in Congress have introduced legislation seeking to protect states from being forced to recognize same-sex marriages. One of those lawmakers is Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, a potential presidential contender who drew applause at a recent conservative

gathering by saying, “We stand for marriage,” and insisting that his party not shy away from “family values.” Then there’s the large group in middle, not ready to embrace same-sex marriage but wary of antagonizing its supporters, including what polls suggest is a solid majority of Republicans under age 30. Several GOP governors fit into this category, including Chris Christie of New Jersey, Tom Corbett of Pennsylvania, Susana Martinez of New Mexico and Brian Sandoval of Nevada. Each decided within the past year to back away from all-out legal fights against gay marriage. Sandoval said Nevada’s gay-marriage ban “is no longer defensible in court.” In the Great Lakes region, three GOP governors who are up for re-election and may be nursing presidential ambitions rarely raise the topic on their own. Rick Snyder of Michigan, Scott Walker of Wisconsin and John Kasich of Ohio haven’t disavowed past support for their states’ bans on gay marriage, but don’t seem eager to make it a high-profile issue as the bans are challenged in court.

WORLD BRIEFS Suspect texted ‘all is good’ before ambush SCRANTON, Pa. – The suspect in a deadly ambush on two state troopers said in a text message that “all is good” less than five hours before he allegedly opened fire outside their barracks in northeastern Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains, according to court documents. Eric Frein’s longtime friend received a text from the suspect around 6:15 p.m. on Sept. 12, The Times-Tribune of Scranton reported Saturday, citing a search warrant affidavit filed in the case. Frein is charged with ambushing the Blooming Grove barracks shortly before 11 p.m. that night. One trooper was killed and a second wounded. Authorities have been looking for Frein – described by authorities as a survivalist with a grudge against law enforcement – in the woods around his parents’ home in Canadensis. The manhunt entered its fourth week Saturday. Authorities said Friday they have found caches of supplies in the rugged, heavily wooded search area. Tuna fish, ramen noodles and other food was recovered along with clothing and 90 rounds of ammunition from a campsite where police previously said they found two pipe bombs, according to investigators.

Ousted Haitian dictator Jean-Claude Duvalier dies PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti – JeanClaude Duvalier, who presided over what was widely acknowledged as a corrupt and brutal regime as the self-proclaimed “president for life” of Haiti until a popular uprising sent him into a 25-year exile, has died. He was 63. Duvalier died Saturday from a heart attack at the home of a friend in Port-au-Prince where he had been staying, said his lawyer,

Reynold Georges, and several officials in the impoverished nation. The former leader, known as “Baby Doc,” made a surprise return to Haiti in 2011, allowing victims of his regime to pursue legal claims against him in Haitian courts and prompting some old allies to rally around him. Neither side gained much traction, however, and a frail Duvalier spent his final years quietly in the leafy hills above the Haitian capital. His father, Francois “Papa Doc” Duvalier, was a medical doctor-turned-dictator who promoted “Noirisme,” a movement that sought to highlight Haiti’s African roots over its European ones while uniting the black majority against the mulatto elite in a country divided by class and color.

With search area mapped, MH370 hunt resuming SYDNEY – After a four-month hiatus, the hunt for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 is about to resume in a desolate stretch of the Indian Ocean, with searchers lowering new equipment deep beneath the waves in a bid to finally solve one of the world’s most perplexing aviation mysteries. The GO Phoenix, the first of three ships that will spend up to a year hunting for the wreckage far off Australia’s west coast, is expected to arrive in the search zone Sunday, though weather could delay its progress. Crews will use sonar, video cameras and jet fuel sensors to scour the water for any trace of the Boeing 777, which disappeared March 8 during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board.

BEARS AT PANTHERS, NOON SUNDAY, FOX, AM-780, 105.9-FM

Bears have to fix what’s ailing Allen BY MARK POTASH mpotash@suntimes.com CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Bears defensive coordinator Mel Tucker hinted at some regret about the way he attacked – or didn’t attack – Aaron Rodgers last week after the Bears almost literally failed to lay a hand on the Green Bay Packers quarterback in a 38-17 loss at Soldier Field. “Obviously, you’re always going to go back and review and see what we can do better. We’ve done that,” Tucker said. “We’ve also made the corrections moving forward for this week (against the Carolina Panthers) because we need to do that. Then we’ll look to make some adjustments the next time we play those guys.” We’ll see about that. Based on what

More online Visit ChicagoFootball.com for the latest Bears and NFL news. we’ve seen so far, making something out of nothing is not Tucker’s forte. His defense crumbled as injuries mounted last season. And with four starters missing against the Packers – cornerback Charles Tillman, defensive end Jared Allen, defensive tackle Jeremiah Ratliff and linebacker Shea McClellin – Tucker was unable to come up with anything that came close to rattling Rodgers.

It’s hard to say what X’s and O’s Tucker has in mind for Sunday’s game against the Panthers at Bank of America Stadium, but the big adjustment is an obvious one – he needs Jared Allen to play like Jared Allen. So far, the Bears’ big splash in free agency has been a disappointment. He has made an impact in victories over the San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets. But it hasn’t been the momentum-turning, highlight-reel impact you’d expect from a guy with 128½ sacks in 10 seasons. Allen had no sacks in the first three games, the longest season-opening stretch without a sack in his NFL career. And he missed last week’s game against the Packers because of pneumonia – the first time he has missed a game because of illness or injury since Week 4 of his rookie

year with the Kansas City Chiefs. Those are red flags to Bears fans used to disappointment. Even Allen acknowledged this has not been a normal season. “It’s been a weird deal,” he said this week. “I take things as they come. So I’m not going to sit here and try to make sense of it.” Maybe we should R-E-L-A-X and let Allen work his way back into a familiar groove. But with this defense, that’s not an easy thing to do. The Bears signed Allen to be more than just a guy who gets double-digit sacks. The idea is he would make everybody AP photo else better. When they said he had a contagious effect on a defense, pneu- Bears defensive end Jared Allen gestures while talking to teammates during monia isn’t what they had in mind.

CARY-GROVE 54, MCHENRY 20

Speedster torches Warriors Hanselmann makes most of limited touches By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com CARY – Part of Larkin Hanselmann’s effectiveness is the element of surprise as defenses try to deal with Cary-Grove fullback Tyler Pennington. Part of it is the Trojans’ pounding offensive line. And another part yet, maybe the most important of all, is that the 5-foot-7, 140-pound dynamo has speed to burn. Hanselmann is a safety by trade and might only get a handful of offensive snaps each game, but he makes them count. He carried four times for 71 yards Saturday as the Trojans rolled past McHenry, 54-20, to win their homecoming game in a Fox Valley Conference Valley Division football game at Al Bohrer Field. The Trojans (6-0 overall, 2-0 FVC Valley) are the No. 2-ranked team in The Associated Press Class 7A poll and rolled up 443 yards of offense, all on the ground. Pennington carried seven times for 174 yards, including a 61-yard touchdown on the first play from scrimmage and a 73-yard scoring run on his only carry of the second half. Hanselmann, who sometimes lines up at receiver, replaced Matt Sutherland after he sprained an ankle in the first half.

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL: HAMPSHIRE INVITE

Marengo surpasses expectations with runner-up finish STANDOUT STATS

q THE NUMBER Assists on the day by Hampshire setter Brittany Laffin.

q THE BIG PLAY The fifth-place match between Hampshire and Woodstock came down to a dramatic Blue Streaks block to end the third game, 19-17.

HAMPSHIRE – After losing 25-10, 25-13 to Burlington Central in the Hampshire Invite championship match Saturday, the Marengo girls volleyball team posed for a picture with its runner-up trophy. “Say ‘Second place,’ ” someone lightheartedly suggested as the Indians prepared for the picture. After a few chuckles, the pictures were taken and the loss was forgotten. Despite not being able to pull out a win against Central’s tough hitters, Marengo coach Meg Dobbertin said a 3-2 finish was something the Indians should be proud of. Besides, the title never was the goal.

As long as we feel good about the game afterward, it’s OK if you end up with a loss.” Peyton Velasquez led the Indians with 39 kills and added five aces and

five blocks for the day. Setter Rachel Tautges also had five aces to go along with 30 assists. “Overall, we had a great day,” Dobbertin said. In contrast to the Indians’ anticlimactic finish, Woodstock and Hampshire played in the last match of the day and battled for fifth place as if it were the title game. The lead changed hands often in the first two games, and the match came down to a third set, which would be played to 15 and won by two. Neither team could put the game away until Woodstock finally nailed down fifth place with a 23-25, 25-21, 19-17 win. The Blue Streaks finished in fifth at 3-2, and Hampshire came in sixth

at 2-3. Richmond-Burton struggled for most of the day, but also ended on a high note with a win over Auburn in the seventh-place match. The Rockets went 1-4 in the tournament. For Brianna Weiss and the Blue Streaks, playing in their third tournament of the year added an extra benefit. “Playing games, we see them as practicing for our postseason,” Weiss said. “With each game, we actually see people that are also going to be in our regional and past that, so we always want to make a good impression and have them scared to play us.” The Whip-Purs’ Brittany Laffin’s 97 assists and nine aces made for one of the best performances of the day, and Erin Foss’s 30 kills also helped Hampshire.

NFL: Bears at Carolina, noon, Fox Like the Panthers, the Bears (2-2) have dropped two straight. They are reeling after allowing Aaron Rodgers to throw for 302 yards and four TDs in a 38-17 loss to the Packers. “The good thing is both teams are coming off tough losses, so it’s really a get-back week for both of us,” Bears linebacker Lance Briggs said.

Retired Army vet Brian Keaton, wounded in Iraq, made a unique ceremonial first pitch before Game 2 of the NL Division Series, crawling toward the mound and then lobbing the baseball as if it were a grenade. He threw the ball with his left hand from behind the mound and the toss bounced home.

IHSA

IHSA resisting push for transparency Organization faces fight to avoid being subject to open records law BY JOEY KAUFMAN jkaufman@shawmedia.com The push to subject South Dakota’s high school sports organization to greater financial scrutiny started with a $2 increase in ticket prices. Beginning with the 2013-14 school year, the South Dakota High School Activities Association raised prices to $7 for postseason events. The reason? One dollar from each ticket would be directed toward the association’s foundation, which was started in 2007 by executive director Wayne Carney. Parents, having to drop more money at the gates, were irritated. Soon, they weren’t the only ones asking questions. Later that year, Corey Brown, a Republican state senator from Gettysburg, South Dakota, introduced legislation requiring the SDHSAA to be subject to state open meetings and open records laws. And in March, Gov. Dennis Daugaard signed the law into effect. It’s cases from this year in South

Dakota and Tennessee that perhaps serve as a glimpse into the future for the increasingly scrutinized Illinois High School Association. The IHSA, a not-for-profit entity, similarly governs high school athletics among the 800-plus-member schools across Illinois. On Friday afternoon at South Shore International High School in Chicago, the House Elementary and Secondary Education Committee held its second hearing regarding the IHSA, as part of the state’s recent effort to see more transparency from the organization. Earlier this year, State Rep. Linda Chapa LaVia (D-Aurora) sponsored a resolution to examine the IHSA’s finances. The primary, lingering question: Will the IHSA, with 80 percent of its membership including public schools, eventually be subject to Illinois open records laws? That has occured in other states through two primary avenues: By the state legislature in South Dakota, and by the courts in Tennessee.

In 2012, The City Paper, a now-defunct weekly newspaper in Nashville, filed a lawsuit against the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association. The case was prompted after the TSSAA declined to provide records regarding an investigation of recruiting violations at the Montgomery Bell Academy, a private school in Nashville. This past May, the state court of appeals ruled in favor of City Press Communications, which represented the paper. In the decision, Court of Appeals Judge Frank Clement Jr. wrote that the TSSAA was subject to the Tennessee Open Records Act because it was the “functional equivalent of a government agency.” The IHSA is expected soon to face a similar legal battle. In July, the Better Government Association filed a lawsuit against the association, asking that it be subject to open records laws because it “performs a governmental function.” “IHSA is responsible for overseeing interscholastic high school competition – that’s about as governmental as it gets,” BGA President and CEO Andy Shaw said in a statement after filing the lawsuit. Should the BGA win, the IHSA

would be required to disclose information such as its corporate sponsorship contracts, as well as additional details regarding its $11 million budget. Its TV contract with Comcast SportsNet Chicago would be included in that, as well. It also is possible Illinois state lawmakers could introduce a bill much like Brown, who sponsored the bill, did in South Dakota, in order to subject the IHSA to open records laws. “How could things be done a little better with more transparency and openness? That’s kind of where the idea came from,” Brown said. Throughout the past year, the IHSA has defended its nonprofit status and believes it’s best off not disclosing such information. In a radio interview with 1450 WFMB-AM in Springfield last week, IHSA Assistant Executive Director Kurt Gibson said this status allows them to “protect” their sponsors. “They’ve got a vested interest in our relationship,” Gibson added. “If some of those details got out, it could harm the relationship they have with us.” Since South Dakota’s law passed this year, the SDHSAA must disclose details regarding its sponsors, and

also make public the agenda for its board meeting much like a school board. The association had protested the bill, but Carney, the executive director, when asked if the new law had prompted much change, he said “not very much.” The SDHSAA stood seemingly alone in its opposition, as most other school officials favored the legislation. “Put it this way,” Carney said, “we didn’t have anyone from our membership come testify in opposition to the law. “They all operate under open meeting, and I think they view us an extension of our high schools.” That contrasts Illinois, where most of the membership has stood with the IHSA in opposition to the hearings. In a news release issued Monday, the IHSA said it had garnered more than 700 online signatures, many coming from the membership, in opposition to the hearings. “There seems to be no purpose to these hearings other than fishing for individuals with grudges against the IHSA,” Wauconda High School Principal and IHSA Board President Dan Klett said.

FOOTBALL: MOOSEHEART 19, ALDEN-HEBRON 8

‘Unacceptable’ loss has Giants in search of answers By KEVIN MEYER kmeyer@shawmedia.com

STANDOUT STATS Shane Bieze

HEBRON – After two disappointing performances in a row, the Alden-Hebron football team’s players and coaches are at a loss concerning the team’s struggles. The Giants escapted last week with a win, but Saturday afternoon they couldn’t overcome mistakes and the amount of big plays given up in a 19-8 Northeastern Athletic Conference loss to Mooseheart. “It’s terrible all the way around, we couldn’t do anything right,” A-H coach John Lalor said. “I don’t know, I’m at a loss right now, we work on things but continue to make the same mistakes week after week, and it just doesn’t get better.” After neither team could do anything offensively in the first half, both Mooseheart and A-H scored on their first possessions of the second half. The scoring drive for Hebron was the only time the team threatened offensively all game. The Red Ramblers (3-3, 3-3 NAC) were the beneficiary of three touchdown plays longer than 40 yards. The second score was the most hurtful for the Giants. They held an 8-7 lead at the time when Mooseheart went to punt. A running-into-the-kicker penalty extended the Ramblers’ drive, and on the next play, Mooseheart’s Ryan Young ran almost untouched through the Giants’ defense for a 57-yard touchdown. The play ended up being the game-winner. “We had too many mental mistakes and we need to fix them,” A-H defensive lineman Shane Bieze said. “We need to come together as a team now. Physically, we had them beat, but our mental mistakes set us back.” The Ramblers scored on a 63-yard pass on their next drive to take a two-score lead. Discarding the three long touchdown plays, the Giants’ defense held Mooseheart to 117 yards of total offense. Bieze, Trevor Redlin and Jacob Heaver were big contribu-

tors defensively, especially in the first half when Mooseheart couldn’t move the ball. The Giants also forced two turnovers, including a Austin Stauss interception. The lone scoring drive for Hebron was ignited by the running of Redlin. Redlin didn’t have a carry in the first half, but rushed for 42 yards on the scoring drive that eventually finished with a Colten Cashmore 4-yard touchdown run on fourth down. A-H managed 191 yards of total offense. The passing game wasn’t connecting, and the numerous fumbles slowed down drive after drive. Redlin led the team with 11 carries for 62 yards. Cody Nelson added seven carries for 38 yards and Josh Johnson ran for 41 yards on 11 carries. The Giants now have the task of trying to figure out what is setting the team back, and try to fix it before it costs them their season. “We have to learn from this, even though it seems like we have a hard time learning,” Lalor said. “I think the concentration level and the way we practice isn’t good enough, I’ve been saying this for three or four weeks now and it hasn’t sunk in, maybe this will be enough for it to finally sink in.”

“He brings us speed, he can hit, he can do just about everything,” C-G guard P.J. Bardgett said of Hanselmann. “He just brings it. It’s mostly his speed. He knows what he’s doing and reads his blocks.” Hanselmann carried on three consecutive plays for gains of 13, 12 and 11 yards. Later, he set up C-G’s last first-half touchdown with a combination of power and dizzying spins on a 35-yard run to McHenry’s 6-yard line. “I didn’t know where they were all coming from,” Hanselmann said. “I just kept going with my feet. It’s kind of hard on offense when I don’t get the ball because I’m not that big of a blocker. It’s all about technique on blocking. When I get the ball, I’m always looking for more yards.

He scores every 3.5 times he gets the ball. Huntley sees Hanselmann in its nightmares after the past two seasons. Hanselmann caught a 60-yard pass to beat the Red Raiders last year and caught a 70-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jason Gregoire last week after Huntley had cut the lead to 127. After that, he ran 60 yards to Huntley’s 1 on a fake punt. “He’s our fastest guy,” Trojans coach Brad Seaburg said. “He gives us that perimeter

element. On our great teams we’ve had a triple threat, and he gives us that big-play explosiveness.” McHenry (2-4, 0-2) got off to a rough start after Pennington scored and defensive back Willie Hartke picked off a Mike Briscoe pass and set up C-G’s second touchdown. But the Warriors battled back to make it 14-7, which it remained until midway through the second quarter. “It’s tough when you can’t stop the fullback, but we played inspired football for a quarter and a half,” Warriors

Red Raiders win with unorthodox 2nd-half goal By TRAVIS ZUELLIG sports@daily-chronicle.com DeKALB – The Saturday morning match between the DeKalb soccer team and Huntley started off cold and stale, just like this early October weather. But the match heated up with about 10 minutes remaining the match after a red card and an unorthodox goal. In the 69th minute, Huntley’s Allan Berrientos was shown his second yellow card after a sliding challenge near midfield. Less than two minutes later, Red Raiders substitute Ryan Larsen sent a ball toward goal from nearly 35 yards out. The ball bounced in front of Barbs goalkeeper Issac Pacheco and went over his head and into the back of the net. Huntley escaped DeKalb with a 1-0 win. “I was pleased with how the game went,” Barbs coach Brent McIntosh said. “We defended well and thought we created a couple of chances for us. It is obviously a disappointing game because this was easily preventable.” The game mostly was played in its entirety in the middle of the pitch. The Barbs’ (8-4-4) best chance of the first half came when Mike Leopardo found Brandon Fender closing in on goal. Fender got past Red Raiders goalkeeper Michael Parks, but pushed the ball wide. DeKalb did well defending throughout. The Barbs’ backline of Juan Luna, Trevor Freeland, Troy Potsic and Brandon Canaday kept Huntley away from net. “We just kept the four strong. Just kept talking and that was it,” Canaday said. “Overall, we just didn’t put things together. We could have talked more. Other than that, we did well in the cold and the weather.” But in the second half, the Red Raiders started to string together plays. Huntley’s best chance came when left back

tors with a fourth-place finish in 19:29.54. Also at Antioch, Prairie Ridge’s Andie Shine was third, Harvard’s Jordan Peterson was fifth and Richmond-Burton’s Breanne Retherford was eighth. Pat Savage Invitational: At Niles West in Skokie, Woodstock’s Kate Jacobs won the Class 1A and 2A race in 18:27.38 to lead the Blue Streaks to a team championship. Also for Woodstock, Grace Beattie was fourth, Amy Zhang was fifth, Sarah Seemen was sixth and Megan Hansen was 10th.

St. Charles North Invitational: At Leroy Oakes Forest Preserve, Lauren Van Vlierbergen took third at the 17-team race in 17:24.9 for Jacobs, which finished ninth. Rachel Feuerhelm took 69th for Cary-Grove, which placed 13th.

Huntley’s Allan Josue Barrientos (right) gets to a ball before an opposing DeKalb player during Saturday’s match in DeKalb. The Red Raiders won, 1-0. Alex Ligeza hit a rifle of a shot from 30 yards out that banged off the cross bar. One minute later, Berrientos was sent off. “I was struggling with the red card. That ref just jumped on it,” Huntley coach Kris Grabner said. “It was aggravating more than anything else to come back after that, and I thought we actually played better after that than before. We had some energy.” Larsen’s goal two minutes later virtually came out of nothing. The winger basically just booted the ball toward the goal. With the turf soaked because of snow and rain, the

ball took a perfect skip over Pacheco for Huntley to make a breakthrough. “It is always hard to play on wet turf with the wind blowing like this,” Grabner said. “We love the 1-0 victory, but to win like that is not the way we want to win a game.” DeKalb didn’t threaten much in the final 10 minutes. McIntosh said he was pleased with how the Barbs dealt with things. “With the result aside, we wanted to leave this match with a better understanding of ourselves and get out healthy,” the coach said. “We did that, so I am pleased.”

NASCAR SPRINT CUP

Busch hopes to exorcise demons at Kansas Speedway KANSAS CITY, Kan. – Nearly all who rolled into Kansas Speedway this weekend still in contention for the Sprint Cup championship should feel good about their chances. Brad Keselowski won at the track a few years ago. Matt Kenseth has two victories in the past five races there. Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon and Kevin Harvick – Sunday’s pole sitter – all have won at the fast, mile-and-a-half oval that kicks off the latest round of the Chase. Even Kasey Kahne, who barely squeezed into the 12-driver field for the contender round of NASCAR’s postseason, posted back-to-back topfive finishes at Kansas. “I feel like we have a shot,” Kahne said. “We’ve had really fast cars, but things haven’t gone our way the last few races, but I think our cars have been pretty quick.” Yep, optimism abounds up and down pit road at Kansas. Until you get to Kyle Busch. If there’s anybody who should feel a bit nervous about the three-race stretch that will pare the field to eight, it’s the Joe Gibbs Racing driver. He’s crashed out of the Chase race the past two years at Kansas, and three of the past four races there overall. Each time, he had arrived with high hopes. Each time, he left in frustration. “We’ll see how this time goes,” said Busch, who nearly backed his Nationwide car into the wall during practice Friday. “There have been some times where we felt like we should have been faster some places this year and ha-

“There have been some times where we felt like we should have been faster some places this year and haven’t quite been, so no reason to think that Kansas being one of our worst tracks we can’t go there and try to run well.” Kyle Busch Joe Gibbs Racing driver ven’t quite been, so no reason to think that Kansas being one of our worst tracks we can’t go there and try to run well.” Kansas hasn’t always been Busch’s personal house of horrors. He’s raced well at the track in the Truck Series and the Nationwide Series, and even this week he has been strong in practice. He’ll roll off Sunday from the seventh starting position. But when Busch hops into his Sprint Cup car, everything goes haywire. The wall seems to jump out and bite him, chewing up a big chunk of his title hopes along the way. Or some other misfortune hits, such as getting busted for speeding on pit road. Even when he’s managed to get to the checkered flag, Busch usually isn’t close to the front. His best finish at Kansas is just seventh, and that was in 2006. His average the past four races is 30th, and that result Sunday would put him in plenty of trouble with stops at Charlotte and the crapshoot known as Talladega looming.

NL DIVISION SERIES GAME 2: GIANTS 2, NATIONALS 1 (18 INNINGS, GIANTS LEAD SERIES, 2-0)

Giants win marathon game on Belt homer 18-inning affair tied for longest in postseason history; Giants lead Nationals 2-0 in NLDS The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Brandon Belt and the rest of the San Francisco Giants did what they do so well in October: They never give in, they never give up, and they win. Simple as that. No matter what it takes – or how long. Even 18 innings. On and on and on the Giants and Nationals played, until Belt’s homer off Tanner Roark leading off the 18th lifted San Francisco to its 10th consecutive postseason victory, edging Washington, 2-1, on Saturday night for a 2-0 lead in their NL Division Series.

It tied the mark for most innings in a postseason game and, as late afternoon stretched into early evening and even past midnight EST, set a time record at 6 hours, 23 minutes. The teams combined to use 17 pitchers and 24 position players. The Giants can close out the best-of-five NLDS at home Monday in Game 3, with Madison Bumgarner – who tossed a shutout against Pittsburgh in the wild-card game – facing Doug Fister. That would be quite a sudden end to 2014 for the Nationals, who won the NL East and led the league with 96 wins. But after a pair of one-run

losses, they’re looking as if they’re the latest team that can’t figure out how to get past San Francisco. Down to their final out Saturday while trailing 1-0 in the ninth, the Giants tied it on Pablo Sandoval’s RBI double, then saw Nationals manager Matt Williams and second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera ejected in the 10th. Yusmeiro Petit entered in the 12th and threw six scoreless innings, allowing one hit and striking out seven, to earn the win. Hunter Strickland got the save with a scoreless 18th. Roark, Washington’s ninth pitcher, came on in the 17th. An inning later, he threw a 94

mph fastball on a full count to Belt, who missed 96 games this season because of a broken thumb and concussion. When he drove the ball into the second deck beyond right field, Belt dropped his bat and admired the shot as the Nationals Park crowd fell silent. When Belt got to the dugout, teammates slapped him on his head. Only one other postseason game in baseball history lasted 18 innings – when the Astros beat the Braves, 7-6, in a 2005 NLDS. That one held the previous record for most time, too, at 5:50. Tim Hudson started that game for Atlanta – he was the Giants’ starter in this one.

in the past, everybody got into hitting two- and three-run homers and that kind of abandoned bunting, stealing and playing the game aggressively in that fashion,” said Ned Yost, who learned his craft from longtime Braves manager Bobby Cox. “Do we have power? Yeah, we have some guys that can hit the ball out,” Yost said. “But we don’t have any 25, 30, 35-home run hitters on our team. So we do other things.” The Royals led the majors with 153 stolen bases this season, and were such a threat on the base paths that Oakland manager Bob Melvin crafted his lineup to deal with their speed. It didn’t do a whole lot of good.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Kansas City Royals, that scrappy run-run-run team quickly endearing itself to baseball purists, is proving small ball works on the game’s biggest stage. After a wild win over Oakland in its first playoff game in nearly three decades, the Royals – who finished last by a wide margin in home runs this season – are just one win away from sweeping the mighty, power-hitting Los Angeles Angels as their best-of-five Divisional Series shifts to Kansas City on Sunday. Led by a manager who grew up in the National League,

BEARS AT PANTHERS MATCHUP When the Bears have the ball Key players: WR Brandon Marshall, who has been limited to three receptions for 25 yards and one TD the past two weeks, practiced fully this week for the first time since suffering an ankle injury in Week 1 vs. the Bills. Panthers CB Josh Norman will be on the spot vs. Marshall and Alshon Jeffery in his first start in place of Melvin White, who was benched last week in a blowout loss to the Ravens. In the air: Jay Cutler’s 94.7 passer rating (10 TDs, only 4 INTs) is his second-highest after the first four games of the season in his six-year Bears career. The only time he was better was in 2010 (102.2). And that’s with Marshall and Jeffery battling injuries. Now, Marshall and Jeffery are 100 percent or close to it, which really could open up the passing attack. The Panthers are a bit unsettled in the secondary, with CB Josh Norman replacing White, who was benched in a 38-10 loss to the Ravens last week. With TE Martellus Bennett red-hot, the biggest question could be: Are there enough catches to go around? On the ground: The Bears gashed the Packers for 235 yards last week – their highest rushing total since 1988 (51-242 vs. the Packers). The opportunity for another productive game should be there vs. a Panthers defense that has allowed 391 rushing yards in losses to the Steelers (34264) and Ravens (30-127) the past two weeks. The wrench in that plan is an unsettled offensive line. LT Jermon Bushrod (knee/ankle) is out. LG Matt Slauson (ankle) and C Roberto Garza (ankle), who have missed the past three games, are questionable. If Slauson can play, super-sub Michael Ola could slide to left tackle.

When the Panthers have the ball Key players: DE Jared Allen has yet to get a sack with the Bears, but his absence couldn’t have been more noticeable against Aaron Rodgers last week. Allen is expected to play against the Panthers, but he still is regaining his strength after losing 15 pounds in a bout with pneumonia last week. Cam Newton is not Rodgers but will be tough to stop if he can avoid turnovers. In the air: Newton (3 TDs, 0 INTs, 98.2 rating) has been efficient but not exactly prolific since returning from offseason ankle surgery in Week 2. The absence of WR Steve Smith has been filled by 6-foot-5 rookie Kelvin Benjamin (21-329, 15.7, 3 TDs), an always-open “catch-radius” threat in the mold of the Bears’ Jeffery. ‘‘He’s a tough matchup,’’ Bears defensive coordinator Mel Tucker said. ‘‘He’s got length. He’s got speed. Strong to the ball. He’s a big-play guy for them.” After being shredded by Rodgers, the Bears are going to have to find a way to put pressure on Newton while containing him. On the ground: Although it went for naught, the Bears held Eddie Lacy to 48 yards on 17 carries (2.8 ypc) in the loss to the Packers, an encouraging sign for a defense that was shorthanded. The Panthers’ ground game is not as formidable as it has been. DeAngelo Williams (ankle) is out. Jonathan Stewart (knee) is questionable. Fozzy Whittaker (quad) is expected to start. Newton (8 rushes, 33 yards, 0 TDs, a long gain of 13 yards) is not the threat he was before ankle surgery. Bears DT Jeremiah Ratliff will miss his third consecutive game with a concussion. But Allen is expected to start after missing last week. – Mark Potash

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: NORTHERN ILLINOIS 17, KENT ST. 14

Irish rally late, top Cardinal Huskies keep By TOM COYNE The Associated Press SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Everett Golson spotted tight end Ben Koyack alone in the back of the end zone just in time. On fourth-and-11 from the 23 and trailing 14-10, Golson dropped back to pass and managed to avoid the Stanford rush just long enough to find Koyack as two Cardinal defensive backs tried to recover from the blown assignment. Koyack caught the pass as he fell out of bounds, while safety Jordan Richards dove to try to break it up, and scored the winning touchdown with 61 seconds left to give the No. 9 Irish the 17-14 victory on a cold, rainy Saturday. “I went to my first read and it wasn’t there and I needed to begin improvising a little bit,” Golson said. “I guess they busted the coverage a little bit and I found Koyack in the back of the end zone.” Koyack said he broke off his route when he saw the coverage and hoped Golson would see him. “He did,” he said. “It felt like the ball was in the air for about an hour.” Stanford coach David Shaw was asked what coverage the No. 14 Cardinal were in on the play. “There was no coverage

Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly calls a play during the first half Saturday against Stanford in South Bend, Ind. on Notre Dame’s touchdown pass,” he said. “That sounds sarcastic but he was wide open. There was nobody on him.” Richards said Koyack got behind the Cardinal defense. “I was just trying to head over there as fast as I could but I just couldn’t do it,” he said. Golson struggled with accuracy at times and threw an interception and had a fumble that was hard to overcome, but still managed to pull it out.

Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly called Golson a winner, pointing out he is 15-1 as a starting quarterback. That 93.8 percent winning percentage is the best in school history. “The kid’s a winner and he keeps competing and he keeps playing,” Kelly said. “And he has a bunch of winners around him. So you never feel like you’re out of it. You just keep playing and keep giving it a shot.”

The Fighting Irish improved to 5-0 for only the third time since Lou Holtz left in 1996 and the second time in three seasons. The Cardinal (3-2) have two losses this early in the season for the first time since opening 1-2 in 2008 in Jim Harbaugh’s second season as coach. Golson also threw a 17yard TD pass to Chris Brown and Notre Dame amassed 370 yards of total offense against the nation’s top defense. The game wasn’t as exciting as Notre Dame’s 20-13 overtime victory two years ago on a goalline stand, but it was close. The Irish defense held the Cardinal to 139 yards total offense and only 47 yards rushing. Stanford receiver Ty Montgomery, who entered the game averaging 69 yards a game receiving, was held to four catches for 12 yards. But he did have a 42-yard kickoff return that helped set up a Stanford touchdown late in the fourth quarter. Shaw was disappointed the Cardinal defense couldn’t hold on. Golson was 20 of 43 passing for 241 yards with one interception and a fumble a week after having four turnovers against Syracuse. Kevin Hogan was 18 of 36 for 158 yards with two interceptions for Stanford.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: PURDUE 38, ILLINOIS 27

No comeback for Illini in loss to Boilermakers By STEVE BOURBON The Associated Press CHAMPAIGN – Illinois has been able to overcome defensive and special teams mistakes with comebacks that produced wins. With quarterback Wes Lunt on the sideline Saturday against Purdue, asking for a

fourth proved to be too much. Lunt left the game in the fourth quarter with a calf injury, and the Boilermakers gashed the Illini defense for 349 rushing yards on the way to a 38-27 upset. The Illini (3-3, 0-1 Big Ten) put up gaudy passing numbers – 450 yards between Lunt and backup Reilly O’Toole. But the

defense’s inability to stop big plays sank the Illini. Purdue (3-3, 1-1) scored on an 80-yard touchdown pass and runs of 54 and 44 yards. “We can’t give up the big play and we couldn’t stop the run today, four weeks in a row. It’s very frustrating,” Illinois linebacker Mason Monheim said.

BIG TEN ROUNDUP

Wildcats get upset win over Badgers The ASSOCIATED PRESS EVANSTON – Godwin Igwebuike had three interceptions and Justin Jackson ran for 162 yards, helping Northwestern upset Melvin Gordon and No. 17 Wisconsin, 20-14. Trevor Siemian threw for a touchdown and also had a key block on Miles Shuler’s 16-yard TD run as Northwestern (3-2, 2-0 Big Ten) earned its third consecutive win. The Wildcats also had a nice day on special teams, with Jack Mitchell kicking two short field goals and punter Chris Gradone handing over poor field position to the Badgers (3-2, 0-1) for much of the afternoon.

No. 20 Ohio St. 52, Maryland 24: In College Park, Maryland, J.T. Barrett completed 18 of 23 passes for 267 yards and four touchdowns and ran 16 times for 71 yards and a score for

Ohio State (4-1, 1-0) in Maryland’s (4-2, 1-1) Big Ten home debut. Ezekiel Elliott rushed for 139 yards on 24 carries, and the defense had four interceptions to hush the first sellout crowd at College Park in nearly six years.

Indiana 49, North Texas 24: At Bloomington, Indiana, Indiana’s Nate Sudfeld threw three touchdown passes and D’Angelo Roberts ran for two scores as the Hoosiers ran away from North Texas. Sudfeld was 23 of 29 for 230 yards to help Indiana (3-2, 0-1 Big Ten) rebound from last week’s conference-opening loss to Maryland. North Texas (2-3) struggled most of the day. Rutgers 26, Michigan 24: In Piscataway, New Jersey, Gary Nova threw for a career-best 404 yards and three touchdowns and Rutgers added to slumping Michigan’s woes

with a 26-24 victory on Saturday night. Nova found Andrew Turzilli on scoring passes of 80 and 14 yards and hit John Tsimis with a 7-yarder as the Scarlet Knights (5-1, 1-1) won their first Big Ten Conference game and sent Michigan (2-4, 0-1) to its third straight loss.

“We’re not stopping the run – you have to stop the run. We’re not scoring points in the red zone, we were 4 for 8 in the red zone. And we’re not kicking field goals when we need to,” Illinois coach Tim Beckman said, referring to a 30-yard try by David Reisner that was blocked midway through the fourth quarter.

win streak alive Stave off Golden Flashes for 28th straight victory at Huskie Stadium By STEVE NITZ snitz@shawmedia.com DeKALB – The Northern Illinois football team had its 27-game Huskie Stadium winning streak put to the test Saturday against Kent State. The Huskies never got into much of a rhythm, but still put up enough points to defeat the Golden Flashes, 17-14, surviving the scare, extending their streak to 28 games and improving to 4-1 and 1-0 in the Mid-American Conference. “You always enjoy [a win]. You don’t ever take anything else, you always enjoy it. I’ve lost games like that before in my career,” NIU coach Rod Carey said. “You don’t ever ever slight winning. Winning is winning, by one or by 50. You don’t get any style points. They don’t put any asterisks in the thing, ‘Ooh that looked really pretty.’ They don’t do that.” The Golden Flashes (0-5, 0-2 MAC), who came in as 26½-point underdogs, had a chance to tie the score in the final minutes, but kicker Anthony Melchiori’s 56-yard field goal attempt fell short. Kent State rallied with 10 unanswered points in the second half to get within striking distance. “Nobody, nobody thought that we would even be in this game at all,” Kent State coach Paul Haynes said. “And, this football team will continue to fight, grind like crazy. It is shaping us for bigger and better things, I know that.” Melchiori’s attempt came after starting quarterback

Colin Reardon and backup Nathan Strock were injured on back-to-back plays. Haynes said he would have handled the field-goal attempt differently without the injuries. “We felt more comfortable with our field goal kicker in that situation than our thirdand fourth-string quarterback,” he said. Kent State held the Huskies scoreless in the first quarter, but NIU was able to get on the board in the second thanks to a Da’Ron Brown 7-yard touchdown run on a jet sweep. The scoring drive was led by NIU quarterback Anthony Maddie, who came in relief of starter Drew Hare. NIU got its other points via a 40-yard field goal by Tyler Wedel and an 18-yard touchdown run by redshirt freshman running back Jordan Huff. Maddie finished the game 7 of 10 for 105 yards, and had a key interception in the fourth, which led to the Golden Flashes’ last drive. Hare went 8 of 15 for 93 yards. Maddie ran for 48 yards and Hare had 34 yards on the ground. “I just go in there when Coach Carey and [offensive coordinator Bob] Cole tell me to, and my job is just to be ready to go at all times,” Maddie said. “Me and Drew are on the same team, and whenever my time comes, I’ve just got to be ready to go.” NIU continues MAC play Saturday, when the Huskies host Central Michigan at 4 p.m. at Huskie Stadium on homecoming.

No. 10 Michigan State 27, No. 19 Nebraska 22: In East Lansing, Michigan, Trae Waynes intercepted Tommy Armstrong’s pass with 30 seconds remaining, and No. 10 Michigan State (4-1, 1-0 Big Ten) held off a furious Nebraska rally, beating the No. 19 Cornhuskers (5-1, 1-1). The Spartans led 27-3 heading into the fourth quarter before three Nebraska touchdowns set up a tense finish. A 43-yard pass to Alonzo Moore gave the Huskers the ball at the Michigan State 37 with just under a minute to play.

AP TOP 25 ROUNDUP

No. 11 Ole Miss upends No. 3 Crimson Tide OXFORD, Miss. – Bo Wallace threw for 251 yards and three touchdowns, including two in the fourth quarter, and No. 11 Mississippi rallied from a fourth-quarter deficit to stun No. 3 Alabama, 23-17, on Saturday. Ole Miss (5-0, 2-0 Southeastern Conference) has won five games to start the season for the first time since 1962 and ended a 10-game losing streak against the Tide (4-1, 1-1). Ole Miss took a 23-17 lead on Wallace’s 10-yard touchdown throw to Jaylen Walton with 2:54 remaining.

No. 25 TCU 37, No. 4 Oklahoma 33: In Fort Worth, Texas, Paul Dawson returned an interception 41 yards for a touchdown, TCU made a huge fourth-and-1 stop with just more than 3 minutes left and the Horned Frogs remained undefeated.

Oklahoma (4-1, 1-1 Big 12) had the ball after the two teams had three turnovers in a span of four plays – another interception by Trevor Knight – between two fumbles by TCU (4-0, 1-0 Big 12). Dawson’s big pick and score for TCU (4-0, 1-0 Big 12) came with 14:12 left to make it 37-31.

No. 12 Mississippi State 48, No. 6 Texas A&M 31: In Starkville, Mississippi, Dak Prescott threw two touchdown passes, added three Tebow-style TD runs and Mississippi State overwhelmed Texas A&M. The Bulldogs (5-0, 2-0 SEC) jumped out to a 28-7 lead in the first half and never let Kenny Hill and the high-scoring Aggies (5-1, 2-1) get close enough to threaten.

No. 1 Florida St. 43, Wake Forest 3: In Tallahassee, Florida, a lackluster effort from quarterback Jameis Winston and the Florida State offense allowed

the defense to star against Wake Forest. The Seminoles (5-0, 3-0 SEC) dominated the overmatched Demon Deacons (2-4, 0-2) and held them to 126 offensive yards, including 40 rushing.

No. 5 Auburn 41, No. 15 LSU 7: In Auburn, Alabama, Nick Marshall passed for 207 yards, ran for 119 and accounted for four touchdowns to lead Auburn past LSU (4-2, 0-2 SEC). Auburn (5-0, 2-0) dominated from the start, with the 41 points matching its highest total in the rivalry.

BLACKHAWKS

In salary-cap move, Hawks deal Leddy to Islanders A blisteringly fast skater with an offensive mindset and a knack for quarterbacking the power play, Nick Leddy always seemed as though he should be a perfect fit for the Blackhawks’ puck-possession style. But in each of the past two postseasons, Leddy lost coach Joel Quenneville’s trust and saw his role get smaller as the games got bigger. So the end of his Hawks career Saturday didn’t come so much as a surprise as a disappointment, a feeling of untapped potential. General manager Stan Bowman finally made his long-anticipated salary-cap move, dealing Leddy and minor-league goaltender Kent Simpson to the New York Islanders for defensemen Ville Pokka and T.J. Brennan and goalie Anders Nilsson. The move cleared Leddy’s $2.7 million salary off the books and got the Hawks below the $69 million cap before the deadline Tuesday afternoon. After signing Daniel Carcillo to a one-year, one-way, $550,000 deal earlier Saturday, the Hawks are about $1.47 million under the cap with 21 opening-day locks, allowing them to keep either Trevor van Riemsdyk or Kyle Cumiskey. Pokka (a top prospect) and Brennan (who has to clear waivers first) will report to Rockford, and Nilsson will stay in Russia. The writing had been on the wall all week. Leddy was scratched from the last two preseason games and lost his spot on the second power-play unit to Brad Richards. After the preseason finale Friday against the Rangers, all Quenneville said about Leddy’s situation was, “Organizationally, we have to see what’s going on.” Leddy was entering the

last year of his contract, and the minimum qualifying offer next summer would have been $3.4 million, perhaps more than the Hawks were willing to pay. The decision to move Leddy and hang on to top-four defenseman Johnny Oduya, who will make $3.375 million and will be an unrestricted free agent next summer, for one more year reinforced the idea the Hawks are making one last run at another Stanley Cup with the current core before Nick Leddy having to retool a bit when the massive $10.5 million cap hits for Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane kick in next summer. At 23, Leddy is 10 years younger than Oduya. But Oduya and Niklas Hjalmarsson form the Hawks’ top shutdown pairing, and the championship window is open now. Leddy will see a more expanded role with the Islanders, who also sent draft picks to Boston for defenseman Johnny Boychuk on Saturday. “Nick Leddy loves Chicago, yet he is a young player who will fit in with young players the [Islanders] have assembled,” said Neil Sheehy, Leddy’s agent. “He is excited to be a part of their core group as the team moves to Brooklyn next year.” The Hawks, meanwhile, will tap into their depth on the blue line to fill the void. David Rundblad and either van Riemsdyk or Cumiskey likely will split time on the third pairing with Michal Rozsival. Klas Dahlbeck, Stephen Johns and Adam Clendening also might be in the mix as the season progresses. Leddy, who was acquired from his hometown Minnesota Wild with Kim Johnsson for Cam Barker in February

2010, showed flashes of brilliance during his time with the Hawks. He played in every regular-season and playoff game since 2011-12. Last season, he had seven goals and 24 assists with a plus-10 rating despite having

to work with three partners – Rozsival, Sheldon Brookbank and Michael Kostka – who played different styles. The question remains whether Leddy could have become a top-four defenseman for the Hawks, partly because

of his defensive lapses (particularly in the postseason) and partly because he never got the chance. In a flurry of other moves, the Hawks assigned forward Teuvo Teravainen and defenseman Dahlbeck to Rockford.

USIV ACE EXCL

They also reportedly put forward Peter Regin on waivers. If he isn’t claimed by another team, he can be sent to Rockford to start the season.

Thibodeau stresses physicality to Rose, rookies in training camp By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com Tom Thibodeau’s word of the day on Saturday? “Physicality.” Specifically, Derrick Rose finding it again, and the young players on the Bulls still trying to understand it. According to Thibodeau, Day 4 of training camp for Rose was maybe one of his best, as the 2011 MVP continued to take on normal NBA contact, accept it and improve. “He’ll be able to handle it,” the coach said. “He just has to get used to it again. That’s why the USA Basketball stuff was so important, to get used to having contact. The more he does it, the better it is for him and the more you see the rust come off. “Now you see him start to make some of the plays he’s capable of making. Now he’s starting to get a little bit of a rhythm and starting to shoot better, which we anticipated. That’s why him practicing and practicing hard is so important.” A physical approach to the game would seem to contradict what Rose was preaching this summer, when he told the media that he had to be smarter about contact. Two season-ending knee surgeries since the

2012 playoffs might have an influence on Rose’s attitude. “I think you’ll see that next year, just trying to keep people off my body,” Rose said in July. “Using a lot of floaters, using a lot of pullups, things like that, so that I won’t be touched as much.” But according to Thibodeau, it’s not the kind of contact that being aggressive around the rim brings that’s conDerrick Rose cerning him about Rose, as much as just the physicality of an NBA game. “In the NBA, you get into a pick-androll and there’s going to be a guy on your body,” Thibodeau Tom said. “And your Thibodeau challenge is you’re trying to create separation and get away from people. But when you’re a player like him you’re also going to be trapped a lot. When someone is on you all the time – and someone will be on him, all the time – you have to get used to that. It’s different. The physicality of NBA basketball is a lot different than college or international. That’s what Derrick has to get used to, that

part of the game. We’re not talking about driving to the basket and someone knocks him down. We’re talking about catch-and-shoot, pickand-roll, even isolation someone will be on him all the time.” As for the likes of rookies Doug McDermott and Nikola Mirotic, as well as second-year player Tony Snell, Thibodeau warned that all three were still a long way off in understanding that. “Yeah, definitely,” McDermott admitted, when asked if the physical NBA play is tough to get used to. “Especially against some of these veteran guys like Mike Dunleavy and Jimmy [Butler] – that’s who I’m guarding for the most part. They’re so crafty in the way they cut and just something I have to get used to.” Then there’s Snell, who put on 15 to 20 pounds of muscle to his slender frame this summer, but still seemingly hasn’t impressed Thibodeau. “See a lot of mysterious pounds these days,” Thibodeau said. “Every summer, I hear about everyone who gained 20 pounds of muscle and they look the same to me. I want to see what it translates to on the floor. What’s the defense and rebounding like? That’s what I want to see.”

BUSINESS LAW Brad Stewart

Medical marijuana may be here past 2017 Now, almost a full year into the four year Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act’s duration, medical cannabis facilities look like they may be open for business in the first half of 2015. A large part of the delay was waiting for the State Departments of Agriculture, Financial and Professional Regulation (DFPR), Public Health, and Revenue, to enact rules and regulations governing various aspects of medical cannabis usage, sales, taxing, quality standards and business operations. Last month, applications for medical cannabis dispensaries and cultivation centers could be submitted. The DFPR received 214 applications for 60 available dispensary locations and 159 applications for 21 available cultivation center locations. There are nine applicants vying for the one available cultivation center in the district comprising DeKalb, DuPage, Kane, Lake and McHenry counties. There is one available dispensary license for McHenry County, two dispensary licenses are available for Kane County and three are available for Lake County. In terms of economic benefit, the state stands to gain more than $6 million annually from the licensing of all cannabis facilities, not to mention millions more in non-refundable application fees from applicants who do not receive a license. This income, however, pales in comparison to the potential income the state may generate from a 7 percent tax on all sales from cultivation centers to dispensaries, and an additional 1 percent tax on all retail sales to licensed users. An estimate indicates that there may be 10,000 licensed users in the early stages of the pilot program (although there are currently less than 3,000 applications for use). Acknowledging the variables of the number of users, the price of cannabis and the amount each user purchases, the state stands to make tens of millions of dollars from the medical cannabis industry sales in the near future. If Illinois follows a similar trajectory to Colorado when Colorado had legalized marijuana for medical usage (before recreational usage), there may eventually be tens if not hundreds of thousands of licensed users. Such expansion of licensed users would proportionately trigger more tax revenue from wholesale and retail sales of cannabis. In terms of local impact, local governments do not have a clear path to direct income from medical cannabis sales within their jurisdiction. Nonetheless, job creation is a possible boon to local economies. Some business plans of cultivation centers anticipate as many as 60 full- and part-time jobs being created from a single facility. Dispensaries would not represent such robust job growth, but may still have a handful of employees per facility. Considering that so many entrepreneurs are committing so many resources to obtain licenses from application fees to initial build out investment to other start-up costs, and considering that the state stands to generate tens of millions of dollars in income from licensing and taxing the industry, it is hard to imagine that medical cannabis will not continue past 2017 when the pilot program is currently set to expire.

Tony’s goes on sans Tony New owners plan to build on legacy at Tony’s Café in Crystal Lake By BRETT ROWLAND browland@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – When Tony Sacketos decided it was time for him to retire at the end of June after running Tony’s Café in Crystal Lake for 20 years, finding a buyer was easy. He sold the business at 1030 McHenry Ave. to longtime Tony’s Café server Bobbie Schiller, 49, and her partner, John Zimka. “Having Bobbie to take over the place made the transition very smooth,” Sacketos said. Schiller and Zimka, who live together in Algonquin, plan to keep the place going with the same attention to detail, customer service and warmth that Sacketos did. They also hope to put their own mark on Tony’s Café in the coming years. Sacketos started the restaurant in 1994. “I had to gain the confidence of the public,” he said. “I didn’t take a paycheck for a year.” His friendliness combined with good food at competitive prices soon attracted a loyal following. Many of his customers have been eating there for decades. Even the grown children of those customers have become regulars at Tony’s Café. The Great Recession took a toll on the restaurant, as it did on other businesses around the world. “The recession was brutal,” Sacketos said. “Starting in November

Customer Jenna Levyne, 12, of Crystal Lake hugs Tony Sacketos in June after she found out the longtime owner of Tony’s Café was retiring. 2008, the restaurant was bleeding money every month.” Sacketos remembers calling the kitchen crew together to tell them that they could stay in business, but everyone would have to take a pay cut. Even with the pay cuts, Sacketos estimated he spent $90,000 to keep the restaurant afloat during the lean years that followed. “The meltdown took a lot out of me,” Sacketos said. After talking with his wife, Toby, he decided to retire and sell the business. It was bittersweet.

“It was a very rewarding 20 years,” he said. “I met so many beautiful, loving people.” Schiller knew nearly everything about running the restaurant after working there for more than 15 years, and Zimka had previously run restaurants in Algonquin and Skokie. Despite their experience and help from other longtime staff members who stayed on, running Tony’s Café without Tony wasn’t easy. “It’s a learning process,” Zimka said. “We’re fortunate Tony was here for 20 years and built an ex-

tremely loyal customer base.” So far, business has been good, he said. They’ve made a few changes to the menu, such as adding fish tacos, pasta frittata and other dishes and adding a lot of fresh fruit options during the summer. They plan to open an outdoor eating area next year. “We’re putting our own twist on things,” Zimka said. “We’re always looking for something new, something catchy.” At the same time, the new owners have been careful not to make radical changes that might upset longtime customers. Schiller said working at Tony’s Café over the years has been fun, especially watching the children of customers become regulars themselves. Schiller also knows “99.9 percent” of customers by names and is quick to greet them when they come in, Zimka said. “I’ve always wanted to own a restaurant,” Schiller said. “I love working with people.” But before, she could leave at the end of a shift. Now she often ends up taking work home with her. Although retired, Sacketos hasn’t stopped working entirely. Once in a pinch, he turned up to help a shorthanded crew back in the kitchen. And he enjoys being a welcome customer in the restaurant that bears his name. “I still go to the best place in town for breakfast – Tony’s Café,” he said.

Area manufacturers change industry perceptions By BRETT ROWLAND browland@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Prairie Ridge High School student Zack Smith got a fresh perspective on manufacturing after touring AptarGroup’s McHenry facility Friday as part of a national push to change perceptions about the industry. “I had no idea what to expect,” said Smith, a 16-year-old from Prairie Grove. “It’s pretty cool. There’s a lot more to it than you’d think.” AptarGroup, a global product packaging maker based in Crystal Lake, opened its doors to students for National Manufacturing Day. Across the country, over 100,000 people toured more than 1,600 manufacturing plants Friday, including President Barack Obama. “Today’s science, technology, engineering and math graduates will power the next chapter of American production and innovation, and harnessing their potential is an economic imperative,” the president said in a proclamation. Manufacturing Day aims to change minds about manufacturing in an ef-

fort to address the skilled labor shortage many manufacturing companies face, according to the nonprofit Manufacturing Day organization’s website. The organization is back by industry sponsors and co-producers. Prairie Ridge High School students put on white coats, hair nets and safety goggles to see how AptarGroup’s 50,000-square-foot McHenry facility makes 900 million products a year – including the valves and over caps that go on a variety of beauty and home products such as spray-on sunscreen. John Washabaugh, director of manufacturing at the McHenry plant, walked students through the manufacturing process and touched on everything from quality control and safety to production costs and sustainability. “I hope they see the stigmas about manufacturing aren’t true,” Washabaugh said after showing students a one-of-a-kind manufacturing machine that he estimated cost more than 150 Ferraris. For many students, the tour did just that. “When you think of a factory,

technology.” Classmate John Lardino, 17, said the tour gave him “a better idea of what it’s like to work” in the industry.

Asset allocation theory doesn’t work for everyone Dear Dave, Can you explain the “asset allocation” theory when it comes to investing?

– Matthew

Dear Matthew, The asset allocation theory is one touted by lots of people in the financial community. It’s also a theory with which I disagree. In short, the asset allocation theory means that you invest aggressively while you’re young. Then as you get older, you move toward less aggressive funds. If you follow this theory to the letter, you’re left pretty much with money markets and bonds by the time you’re 65. The reason I don’t believe in this theory is simple. It doesn’t work. If you live to 65 and are in good health, there’s a high statistical likelihood that you’ll make it

DAVE SAYS Dave Ramsey to 95. The average age of death for males in this country is now 76, but that includes infant mortality and teenage deaths. So, a healthy 65-year-old man in America can look at having another quarter century on earth. If you move your money to bonds and money markets at age 65, inflation is going to kick your tail. Your money will grow slower than it will devalue, and you’ll have little purchasing power. That’s the problem with the asset allocation methodology. I advise investing in good, growth stock mutual funds that have strong track records of at least five to 10 years. Spread your money

across four types of funds: growth, growth and income, aggressive growth and international. These groups provide diversification across risk, as well as a little splash overseas. Great question, Matthew.

– Dave

Dear Dave, My husband makes about $35,000 a year before taxes, and we have one child. We’ve also got a mortgage and $60,000 in student loan debt. About a year ago, my husband started work on a master’s degree, because he thinks he wants to teach when he retires. He quit school after the baby was born, because he didn’t think we could afford it any longer. I think he should finish the degree. Otherwise, he’s just throwing away the $10,000 we’ve already got invested in the program. What

do you think?

– Amanda

Dear Amanda, You guys need to clean up the mess you’ve made before he goes after his master’s degree. You might be able to justify it if the degree immediately raised his income, but you two can’t afford to make investments in vague educational goals right now. If you want to call it throwing the money away, then yeah, throw it away. But I’m not sure the money has been wasted. The classes he has already taken are complete and on record, so why can’t he finish the degree somewhere down the road? You guys have done a poor job of planning, and now you need to climb out of a big hole before you do anything else. The point is not the $10,000, Aman-

da. The point is that you’re barely making ends meet. You’ve already got a house payment and $60,000 in student loan debt hanging over your heads, not to mention the added expense of a baby in the house. The last thing you need is to go even deeper into debt for something he won’t even use until retirement. That’s just silly. I’m all for education, but you’ve got to plan things and get a better payback on your educational spending. That’s when it becomes an investment. But he doesn’t need to even think about a master’s degree until you guys have first straightened out your finances.

7 Simple Life Changes That Will Make You Happier at Work Become a mentor

By Catherine Conlan Monster Contributing Writer

If you have experience in your field, mentoring junior employees can increase your job satisfaction, says Cheryl E. Palmer, owner of Call to Career. “There is fulfillment in helping others, and mentoring other employees can make your time at your current job more enjoyable.”

Even if you’re stuck in a job you’re not happy with, there are ways to find bright spots and make yourself feel better while you’re at the office. Here are seven simple life changes that will make you happier at work.

Develop a structured routine Join a committee Bringing awareness and mindfulness to your day can provide a structure that reduces stress and helps you be at work mentally when you’re at work physically, says Elizabeth Wright, a Paralympic medalist and motivational speaker.

Doing more at work will increase your visibility at the organization and help you make contributions outside of your department, Palmer says. “Many large companies have committees to review processes or improve employee retention. Joining such a committee can expose you to other people in a large organization that you might not otherwise meet and can open the door for future job opportunities.”

This can include a morning routine involving some kind of exercise, such as a morning run, yoga session or swim at the pool. It also means preparing the night before, so you don’t have to start the day stressed by having to pack lunches and look for clean clothes. Finally, put together a time management plan to avoid procrastination, Wright says.

Change your mindset Instead of seeing each day as work, view it instead as an investment in your career,

HOROSCOPE

TODAY - Don’t let anything or anyone cause you to waver from your game plan. You have worked hard to get where you are, so this is not the time to be complacent. Stick to your schedule in order to make steady progress. Love and romance are in the stars. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Express your individuality. Make self-improvements that will engender feelings of specialness. Don’t be afraid to show your style; it contributes to your wonderful personality. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- It’s wonderful to get tips from others, but the ultimate decisions must be yours alone. If you

feel that you are being backed into a corner, take control and ﬁnd your way out. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Do an honest inventory of your talents and strengths. Determine where you are heading, and hone the skills that will get you where you want to go. Circumstances change, and preparation will ensure that you are ready. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -Embrace life and enjoy the moment. You will come out on top if you wheel and deal. You have the strength necessary to defeat the opposition. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Accept

any invitations that come your way. You are likely to meet someone interesting, unconventional and exhilarating. Your conﬁdence and charisma will make a lasting impression. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Consider the motives of anyone who is plying you for information. Be discreet about your ideas and plans, or someone is likely to duplicate your efforts and take credit. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Avoid confrontations, and don’t get into a tug-ofwar with someone who is out to make you look bad. Let your actions speak for you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Don’t

give in to someone demanding donations. Make your own choice about which charity to contribute to. There is plenty of information in social media that can lead you in the right direction. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Try to take life a little less seriously. Your efforts will be rewarded if you convince friends and family to join you for a fun-ﬁlled day of activity and entertainment. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Romancing someone special will add spice to your life. If you are single, you will be able to make a new connection, and if not, you can

heat up your current relationship. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Prove your adaptability. Do whatever it takes to get things running smoothly at home in order to reap the beneﬁts of an unexpected and positive domestic alteration. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Leave your professional woes at work. Even the ones who love you the most will grow weary of tales of ofﬁce politics. Devote your time to those you care about the most.

Reader wonders about ‘Wonder Woman’ waiting in line. Joe secretly slipped the head waiter a $50, and Bob’s your uncle, Joe and his guest enjoyed an excellent meal.” No one is quite sure of the origin of the phrase. My favorite explanation is that Prime Minister Lord Salisbury – first name Robert – showed considerable nepotism to his nephew Arthur Balfour. Because of this, everything came easily to Balfour, thanks to his uncle Bob.

One of the most beautiful women I have ever seen is Lynda Carter, star of the TV series “Wonder Woman.” How old is she? Is she married? I met her many years ago, and I’m still mesmerized. – G.S. Sunbury, Pennsylvania Lynda Carter was born Linda Jean Cordova Carter on July 24, 1951, in Phoenix. She is an actress and a singer. As for her beauty, you won’t be too surprised to find out that she was crowned Miss World USA in 1972. Carter starred in “Wonder Woman” from 1975 to 1979. She’s appeared in more than 30 TV shows and close to a dozen movies, and she’s recorded three albums. She still appears on television and on tour. Carter has been married twice. Her first marriage was to her former talent agent, Ron Samuels, from 1977 to 1982. In January 1984, she married Washington, D.C., attorney Robert A. Altman; they have two children: James (born 1988) and Jessica (born 1990).

My family spent a couple of weeks in the United Kingdom this past summer. At least twice I heard the phrase “... and Bob’s your uncle.” I asked a couple of tour guides what it meant, but the explanation made no sense. Do you care to give an explanation a try? – H.T.N., Red Bluff, California I thought I understood what the phrase meant until I tried to explain

Have you ever heard of a Dick Clark rose? Is it named after THE Dick Clark? – E.K., Columbus, Nebraska

Photo provided

Lynda Carter stars as Wonder Woman. it, and now I’m in doubt. I did a lot of checking and studying, and I think I got it. “Bob’s your uncle” is an exclamation that is used when something works out; it’s the simple approach to obtaining the results you want. For example, “The restaurant was full with dozens of people

Yes, the rose is named after THE Dick Clark. According to the Michigan Bulb Co., the award-winning grandiflora rose has blooms of blending shades of cream, bright red and burgundy. The description goes on that the roses are ideal for gardeners who want to enjoy the beauty of growing roses without all the hassle of big, bulky bareroot plants. The plant needs full sun to partial shade. It won the All-America Rose Selection Award in 2011. Without using garden jargon, it is a really beautiful rose.

Emergencies happen unexpectedly. Each incident is a wake-up call to get prepared. Join the McHenry County Department of Health in our ongoing preparation for emergencies, and help us to encourage the community by becoming prepared and getting involved. Police, fire and rescue responders may not always be able to reach you quickly in an emergency or disaster. The most important step you can take in helping your local responders is being able to take care of yourself and those in your care; the more people who are prepared, the quicker our community will recover. Think about the natural disasters that northern Illinois has dealt with over the past several years. Think about the unexpected disasters that we have seen in the news recently, disasters that have happened in communities just like ours, to people just like us. We have seen tornadoes, floods, historic earthquakes, even water main breaks and power outages affecting U.S. communities for days at a time. Preparing before a disaster strikes is easy – it doesn’t cost a lot or take much time. Preparing and planning in the event you must go for three days without electricity, water or access to a supermarket makes good sense. Follow these four steps to better preparedness 1. Be informed. Know what kinds of hazards can affect us here in northern Illinois near where you live or work. Before and during a disaster, get local information from credible sources, such as www.mchenryaware.com and www.mcdhprepare.info. 2. Have a plan. Decide how you will respond to possible disasters and keep a copy of all of your important information (birth certificates; bank and credit account information, etc.) handy in one location. Your plan should include family meeting places, local and out-of-area contact people,

FROM THE HEALTH DEPT. Keri Zaleski medical histories, insurance information and important phone numbers. You can find a one-page template at www. ready.gov/make-a-plan. 3. Make a kit. Keep emergency supplies (water, nonperishable food, first aid, prescriptions, flashlight, battery-powered radio, etc.) on hand. Have enough supplies to last for three days. Consider creating both a shelter-in-place kit and a grab-and-go/evacuation bag. Customize your kits to your family’s needs. You can find information about building different types of kits by visiting the “How to Prepare” page at www.mcdhprepare. info. 4. Get involved. Statistics show that in a disaster, people want to help. To do so, volunteers must be pre-identified and credentialed. Help from both nonmedical and medical volunteers is needed in a disaster. Call MCDH at 815-334-4510 to join the Medical Reserve Corps, or visit the volunteer page at www. mcdhprepare.info This year, McHenry County is focusing on turning awareness into action by encouraging you to create an emergency plan and make sure you and those you care for are prepared. Take a few simple actions today to make your community and family safer. The following websites are reliable sources that offer information about how to “be informed, have a plan, and make a kit”: www.ready.gov, www.mcdhprepare.info, and www.mchenryaware.com.

• Keri Zaleski is the emergency response coordinator for the McHenry County Department of Health. Email her at kazaleski@ co.mchenry.il.us for information about how you can help or if you would like a presentation about becoming prepared.

POWER Bull Valley resident grows hybrid to push back against breast cancer By JAMI KUNZER • jkunzer@shawmedia.com

Mary Moltmann of Bull Valley gets ready to pick the pink pumpkins she grew this season to support breast cancer awareness. Moltmann plans to give the pumpkins (right) to friends who have survived breast cancer. Photos provided

treatments. A 19-year breast cancer survivor, Walsh said early detection helped her survive. “What a neat idea,” she said of the pumpkins. “Maybe I’ll carry it in the race. How about that? If it’s not too large. … It’s a nice reminder for all of us about breast cancer, in terms of the need for early prevention.” Described as boasting a deep orange, sweet flesh that looks pinkish, the pumpkins are squarish, deep-ribbed and average about 20 to 24 pounds. Having discovered them last year, Moltmann couldn’t find a grower to buy them from, so she hunted around a bit to find somewhere to buy the seeds. She expects more growers will start to sell the pumpkins as the relatively new campaign evolves. “It’s catching on, and I’m guessing in the future it will probably be easy My philosophy is to buy pink pumpbased on what kins,” she said. In Illinois, six my mom used to commercial growers say about cancer: are listed as selling the pumpkins on ‘Along with all www.pinkpumpkinpatch.org. None are of the other in McHenry County. treatments you Growing them was the easy part, have for cancer, you Moltmann said. have to treat cancer “They are being bred to be more with contempt.’ I resistant. … and they do seem to love that line. That’s be very vigorous kind of what this is. plants,” she said as she described one I’m giving it the old of the pumpkins pushback.” still growing in her garden. – Mary Moltmann “It just keeps of Bull Valley growing … the exuberance of these plants,” she said. Each vine of the pumpkin plant typically provides two pumpkins, she said. With the two plants she kept for herself, she ended up with six healthy pink pumpkins. Next year, she plans to build raised beds in the backyard to plant even more pumpkins and sell more plants as part of the Bull Valley Garden Club’s plant sale. Anyone can plant them, she said, whether they’re farmers, gardeners or not. Like many of her friends with breast cancer, the plants are survivors. “They don’t want to quit,” she said.

M PINK pumpkin

ary Moltmann is trying to raise breast cancer awareness one pumpkin at a time. In support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and several friends fighting the disease, the Bull Valley woman grew pink porcelain doll hybrid pumpkins in her yard. A member of the Bull Valley Garden Club, she also sold about 35 plants so others could grow the pink pumpkins. More pumpkins mean more pink and, hopefully, more awareness. “My philosophy is based on what my mom used to say about cancer: ‘Along with all of the other treatments you have for cancer, you have to treat cancer with contempt,’ ” Moltmann said. “I love that line. That’s kind of what this is. I’m giving it the old pushback.” Through Burpee (www.burpee. com) – the company Moltmann bought the porcelain doll seeds from – a portion of the proceeds from the porcelain doll hybrid pumpkins goes toward research efforts to fight cancer. A Pink Pumpkin Patch Foundation (www.pinkpumpkinpatch.org), created in 2012, also works with pumpkin growers who donate a percentage of every pink pumpkin sold to be used by organizations involved in breast cancer research. The foundation oversees the donations to the organizations. In 2013, the foundation awarded $30,000 to Rush University Medical Center in Chicago to support breast cancer research at the center. The research uses genetic techniques to identify molecular mechanisms of drug resistance and identify new targets for existing therapies. But it’s more than the money. Like pink shirts, pink hats, pink fire engines, it’s all about spreading awareness and support to as many people as possible. Moltmann plans to give her pumpkins away to survivors and those fighting the disease. “I have more friends who are breast cancer survivors than I have pumpkins,” she said. “I will give them away and let them know I think about them and keep all survivors in my prayers.” Among those receiving a pumpkin – as well as Moltmann’s financial pledge in the upcoming 14th annual Care4 Breast Cancer 5K at Woodstock North High School – is Molly Walsh of Crystal Lake. Walsh has taken part in the 5K, a benefit to provide breast cancer care to the uninsured and underinsured in McHenry County through the Family Health Partnership Clinic, for the past 15 years. The event supports women who can’t afford to have mammograms and other preventative care and

ust before entering the show arena, Aimee Kirby smiles down at her horse, Bandit, giving him a gentle pat. The Hunter event she entered in the Spring Grove Horse Show last month will help her and Bandit to enter bigger shows, Kirby said. “I’m kind of just trying to build my self-confidence,” the 22-yearold Wauconda resident said. The pair had experienced a couple of bad falls. “We’re working on confidence building for the both of us,” she said. Those words are music to Denise DeCicco’s ears. “This is a schooling show,” said DeCicco, president of the Spring Grove Horse Show Board of Directors. “It exposes them to what a show is like – without stress. Peo-

ple use this as a starting point.” Dressed in traditional riding attire, riders of all ages straddled their horses, waiting their turn, encouraging each other. “It’s more of a low-pressure, entry-level show experience,’’ said Kirby’s trainer, Kathy Kohlhaas. “It does take away a lot of the stress.” For 50 years, riders have come to Spring Grove Horse Fair Park to learn about riding in competitive shows. The nonprofit group gifted the park to the village with the understanding that the group could continue to host its events there. “We pick our dates first,” DeCicco said of the yearly schedule for the public horse arena. “This is a one-of-a-kind-thing.” With eight shows this year, there are a variety of divisions for riders ages 3 to adult. In addition to the Hunter show, categories this

Alexa Mayer, 5, of Wonder Lake sits atop her horse, Resolution, with her handler Leslie Kvistad during the leadline class of the Spring Grove Horse Show on Sept. 13.

Show of promise Riders building confidence, experience at Spring Grove Horse Show for 50 years year included English and Western Performance, Speed Show and CT/ Dressage. Alexa Mayer, 5, of Wonder Lake, participated in the season’s last English & Western Pleasure division show with Resolution, owned by family friends Leslie and Michael Kvistad. Mayer, who has been riding since she was 3 and participated in her first show this summer, took first place in

the leadline class. Although, at the Spring Grove Horse Show, every child in the introductory class takes home a blue ribbon. “She loves it,” said Mayer’s mom, Krista. “She’s 110 percent invested in it.” Krista Mayer said the shows are great exposure and that she appreciated the hometown feel that made them feel welcome during Alexa’s first competition there.

“They were phenomenal,” Krista Mayer said. “They were very professional. ... I would definitely go back, absolutely.” Alexa Mayer, who trains at John White Stables in Woodstock, plans to keep competing, and will enter her first show in a walk/trot class in December. “Who knows – any one of these kids could be an Olympian,” DeCicco said. “It’s just thrilling

for me.” The low entry fees – at $30 a division and a $10 office fee – are kept affordable to keep riders coming back, DeCicco said. The last show of their season, a Fun & Action show at 8 a.m. Oct. 11, will host competitions in costumes, water balloon races, egg & spoon and relay races. Entry fee is $5 a class with an office fee of $5 a member. Trying out a new horse Sparky,

16-year-old Katiee Pabich of Prairie Grove has been riding for 10 years. “I’m actually trying him out today to see if I want to buy him,” said Pabich, who already owns six horses. “This show is mostly just helping him out experience-wise so he can go on to other shows.’’ Sisters Emma and Vanessa Raisanen of St. Charles share a passion for riding.

“This is mostly just for building my confidence, my position and the teamwork of me and my horse,” said Emma, 14. She discovered her love of riding by watching her big sister. “As soon as I turned 7, it was my dream to ride horses,” said Vanessa, 19. “She’d be at the barn and see me ride, so she kind of followed me. My life is horses, school and work.” A rider herself, DeCicco understands the sisters’ passion. Her three granddaughters are just starting to ride. “A kid with a horse – it teaches them responsibility. It teaches them about humanity,” DeCicco said. The group also teaches young riders about giving back to their community. Over the 50 years of the club being organized, the money earned through entrance fees has helped the local grade school, fire department, police

MINI-REVIEWS & LOCAL SHOWTIMES OF CURRENT MOVIES NEW THIS WEEK

“GONE GIRL” STARRING: Ben Affleck, Rosamund Pike, Neil Patrick Harris

PLOT: With his wife’s disappearance having become the focus of an intense media circus, a man sees the spotlight turned on him when it’s suspected that he may not be innocent. RATED: R for bloody violence, some strong sexual content/nudity and language TIME: 2 hours, 29 minutes VERDICT: In “Gone Girl,” David Fincher has crafted a portrait of a couple rivaled in toxicity only by “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” and one with just as much – if more subtle – roleplaying. The results are a mixed bag of matrimony mayhem, but an engrossing, wonderfully wicked one. Despite its perspectiveshifting, “Gone Girl” may be too male in its viewpoint. And the schematic setup of Flynn’s screenplay does sap some of its force. But in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, “Gone Girl” is delicious suburban noir. Pike, in the fullest performance of her career, struggles to make wife Amy more than an opaque femme fatale. But – and it’s a big one – she does lead the film to its staggering climax, a blood-curdling sex scene: the movie’s piece de resistance, the consummation of its noir nuptials. –

The Black Star of Queensland

Gem Talk

By Karly Bulinski

In 1938, Roy Spencer, a 12 year-old Australia native, was playing out in his father’s sapphire claim when a large rock caught his attention. Thinking he had just found and amazing gemstone, he quickly scooped it up and ran home to show his father what he had just discovered. His father, Harry, although trying to strike it rich as a sapphire prospector, was still quite ill-educated about all the different appearances corundum can take on. When his boy brought home the 1000+ carat black crystal, Harry tossed it aside saying that it was not of any significant value. In fact, he thought the half-pound “rock” would make an ideal doorstop and tossed it over by the back door where it sat with all its glorious potential waiting to be discovered for 10 years. Throughout those lengthy 10 years, Harry had learned a great deal about sapphires and came to the realization that his functional black crystal doorstop could be worth a hefty fortune. He took it in for a thorough investigation and concluded that it was indeed a black sapphire, yet he and the other few that had been in contact with the stone were not educated well enough to determine that it was indeed a star sapphire. His humble doorstop that was treated with scant respect for close to a decade was now elevated to a higher status within the Spencer household. It began receiving royal treatment from the miner, getting meticulously wiped clean and polished and given a safe home until a prospective buyer came along. Enter Harry Kazanjian. In 1947, after hearing of the potential for a gem-quality black sapphire in Australia, he hopped on a plane from Los Angeles to go take a look at it. Kazanjian was quite impressed with the stone and began negotiations with Spencer right away, finally settling at a purchase price of $18,000. Spencer was able to build his family a new home. Kazanjian was so impressed with his new purchase he took 2 months to study it before he made the first cut. What he ended up with was a 733 carat black star sapphire cabochon (equivalent to the size of an egg), which later became known as The Black Star of Queensland.

Throughout the years, this stone has brought luck to a few, made appearances at national museums, been around the neck of Cher and even been the center of focus for a court case. Currently, a private collector has possession of the stone with no indication of selling any time soon. It has been estimated that it could be worth as much as $50 million dollars.

Ancient practice of cremation gets modern revival Dear Abby: I recently had an interesting conversation with a friend after a funeral. It was about cremation versus burial, and I’d be interested in your thoughts and those of your readers. We noted that cremation has become more common, and guessed that one of the main reasons might be funeral and plot costs. After thinking about it, we thought there might be other considerations propelling people toward the practice of cremation. In modern society, individuals and families seem less tied to one area, and also, larger communities make it more difficult to make trips to cemeteries. Any insight on this trend? – Plotting And Planning In Arizona Dear Plotting And Planning: Cremation is nothing new. It has been practiced since ancient times – 5,000 years ago and possibly even longer than that. The early Romans did it, but with the rise of Christianity, it fell out of favor. (It is accepted by the Christian religion today.) Buddhists, Hindus and Sikhs commonly cremate their deceased. However, it is opposed by traditional Jewish culture, which believes our bodies belong to God and we are not supposed to actively destroy God’s property, and by the Muslim religion. You and your friend have covered the major considerations that make people choose cremation instead of burial. I would only add that in the past, I have heard from readers who could

not bear to part with the remains of their loved one, and who have kept the ashes in their home. Others would like to have their own ashes co-mingled with their loved one’s at the appropriate time and placed in a columbarium. However, if readers have anything they would like to add, I’ll share some of their input with you. Dear Abby: I’m 75, and my daughter just turned 50. We both have nice figures and are stylish. On a number of occasions over the years, when my daughter and I are together, people have commented that we look like sisters. I usually smile and say thanks, and my daughter just smiles. Recently, she asked me, “Does that mean I look old?” Turning 50 may have made her a little more ageconscious. She looks great for any age, and I would like your suggestion for a good reply that will boost her self-confidence. – Georgia In

Texas Dear Georgia: Tell your daughter that people may say you look like sisters because you strongly resemble each other. Many mothers and daughters do. They also may be trying to pay YOU a compliment, implying that you look much younger than your years. I’m sure it’s not meant to imply that your daughter looks old.

Family supportive but seems to be waiting for drinking to resume Mr. Atwater: I went to rehab about nine months ago and have been doing well in sobriety. I go regularly to support group meetings and still attend my aftercare group. My family has been supportive but in a very strange way. They say they are proud of me and how they’re so glad I “turned my life around,” but they seem to be waiting patiently for the day I can start drinking normally again. They are careful not to overdrink around me, but I know when I leave, the party really starts. I guess they seem supportive right up to the point where they would have to really understand alcoholism. Should I confront them with this attitude? Should I ask them to try and find a deeper understanding? Dear Reader: Alcoholism is a family disease. That doesn’t mean everyone drinks in an alcoholic fashion, but rather that everyone has been affected in ways they often don’t understand. Parents of young people who have substance abuse problems usually have suffered a long time with the fear of losing their child, the disappointments that go along with what addictions do to lives and the feeling that somehow it was their fault. If you add to that a parent who has a drinking problem of their own, they can have a challenging road to recovery. You are the opening to that family recovery, and the way that recovery takes

shape comes in as many designs as there are people. Your job is to stay honest and to stay sober first and foremost. Eventually, your family will see that you’ve changed in ways other than just not drinking. They’ll see your life get better. They’ll feel your sincerity and your compassion toward them. Of course, you’d like them to understand you, but it’s you who needs, at least right now, to understand them. It may seem to you like they will never really get what you’re going through, but that’s why you are lucky enough to have a program. Your program gives you the understanding, the tough love, the hope and the guidance. You may be the only example of a recovering person they will see, so set a good example. I would advise against confronting them or demanding that they find a deeper understanding. If they ask how you are doing what you’re doing, give them a short, simple and honest answer. If they continue to ask, tell them that Al-Anon family groups are available for the family members of alcoholics if they want to check that out. Otherwise, work diligently on your own sobriety and let your behavior do the talking.

Fall is here, and it’s time to think about indoor comfort Proper humidity is crucial in maintaining the indoor comfort of your home. The warmer we heat our homes, the drier the air becomes which increases the need to add moisture. This is accomplished with a humidifier. During the heating season, humidity protects the home and its furnishings from the harmful effects of dry air. Doctors recommend humidifiers to protect against dry skin, hair, nasal membrane irritations and scratchy throats. Proper humidity reduces static electricity, preventing shocks from touching people, pets or objects. The two types of humidifiers most commonly used for homes are Evaporative & Steam humidifiers. • Evaporative humidifiers can be free standing or duct mounted. The free standing units are usually used when the home is heated with a boiler. The most popular units are duct mounted which can distribute the humidity to every room. These come in different sizes which can accommodate any size home. They have the capacity to deliver up to 18 gallons of water per day. • Steam humidifiers are the most effective because they maximize the moisture output in the home. For every gallon of water, they put out 1 gallon of humidity. When a certain level of humidity is needed (if you have a piano or oil paintings for example) then steam is the optimal choice.

Women on two sides of domestic violence case unite for common cause By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com

Kyle Grillot – kgrillot@shawmedia.com

ope. Don’t let fear control your life. During this year’s “Will County Take Back the Night” rally Oct. 2, Sherry Anicich of Plainfield spoke on the first topic, and Kellie Stryker of Crystal Lake spoke on the second. The fact that these two women are collaborating on these topics proves their earnestness. Anicich is the mother of Alisha Bromfield, 21, of Plainfield. A co-worker, Brian M. Cooper, 37, of Plainfield, was sentenced for murdering Bromfield on Aug. 19, 2012, when they were in Wisconsin for a wedding. Bromfield was seven months pregnant – Cooper was not the father – and had planned to call the baby Ava. Stryker is Cooper’s sister, a social worker specializing in mental health, child abuse and domestic violence. Earlier this year, Anicich and Stryker both testified before the Wisconsin Legislature as to why voluntary intoxication should not be a homicide defense, as was Lathan Goumas – lgoumas@shawmedia.com done in Cooper’s case. Assembly Bill 780, which says just that, was signed into law in August. The first time Anicich and Stryker had formally met was at the capitol building in February, and although Take Back the Night was their first formal public speaking appearance, Anicich said it wouldn’t be the last. More speaking engagements are scheduled, Anicich said, but don’t expect them to focus on the murder.

ABOVE: Kellie Stryker stands in her Crystal Lake home Sept. 25. In May, Stryker’s brother, Brian M. Cooper of Plainfield, was found guilty of two counts of first-degree intentional homicide for the strangulation death of Alisha Bromfield, 21, also of Plainfield, and her unborn baby, Ava. LEFT: Stryker met with Bromfield’s mother, Sherry Anicich, on Oct. 2 at Will County’s Take Back the Night vigil and march at Joliet Memorial Stadium. Stryker contacted Anicich after the trial. Anicich said she did feel angry at first, until she realized Stryker’s sincerity. “I was very protective of my own self,” Anicich said, “but then I decided to open my heart up.”

Turning around tragedy

“I want people to know that you can take something so evil and tragic and turn it around into something good,” Anicich said. Stryker, 29, who said she grew up in a mentally and physically abusive environment, has separated herself from many family members. This has triggered anxiety, Stryker said, but she refuses to allow that anxiety to rule her life. “Fear is an emotion you can overcome,” Stryker said. “Once you overcome it, you can have your destiny be what you want it to be. You can be your own person.” Stryker’s first swing against fear was after Cooper’s first trial – where Stryker testified on Cooper’s behalf – ended in a hung journey. It bothered Stryker that Cooper refused to take responsibility for his actions. “I had to do the right thing,” Stryker said, “I had to speak out.” After testifying against her brother, Stryker contacted Anicich, uncertain if the reception would be gracious or hostile. Anicich said she did feel angry at first, until she realized Stryker’s sincerity. “I was very protective of my own self,” said Anicich, who added that her devotion to Mary, Jesus’ mother, provides strength and guidance, “but then I decided to open my heart up.” Stryker was immediately impressed by Anicich’s efforts to keep Bromfield’s memory alive and said Anicich is a tremendous inspiration to her. “She’s a selfless person just for giving me a chance to be in her life. It means the world,” Stryker said. “She is a courageous woman who has dealt with so much in the aftermath of her daughter’s death.” Since Bromfield’s death, Anicich, a counselor with 20 years of grief experience, has begun a foundation called the Purple Project (www.purpleproject.org) that has made and distributed 4,000 purple rosaries (purple was Bromfield’s favorite color), as well as “Pay It Forward” cards that encourage people to do good deeds. Anicich also has distributed baby bottles for people to fill to support unwed mothers in the memory of Anicich’s granddaughter Ava, who never lived to see birth. A member of Joliet Junior Woman’s Club (jolietjuniors.org), Anicich said a $1,000 scholarship the group awards is now called the Alisha and Ava Bromfield Memorial Community Scholarship. Anicich’s goal is to eventually open a home for unwed mothers and to offer them counseling, spiritual guidance and basic life skills classes.
