Defense wants interview tossed

McHenry-area man accused of killing ex-girlfriend, hiding her body in sealed room

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The defense attorney for a McHenry-area man accused of murdering his former girlfriend has asked a judge to bar statements he made to authorities from his trial.

William J. Ross, 64, was arrested in November 2013 in Las

Vegas. He first was charged with concealing the death of 49-yearold Jacqueline Schaefer, and later charged with her homicide. Authorities said Schaefer was shot in September 2011, and her remains went undiscovered for two years.

Ross has pleaded not guilty to all charges and remains in custody of the McHenry County Jail in lieu of $5 million bond. A trial date

has not been set.

He was living in a motel in Las Vegas at the time of his arrest, and spoke with detectives there as well as investigators from the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

Although Ross made no admissions of guilt during the interviews, they were revealing.

Authorities allege that after Ross killed Schaefer, he went to great

lengths to seal the bedroom where her remains eventually were found. He nailed and screwed both the windows and doors, he caulked the edges and painted over it, according to a transcription of the Las Vegas interview attached to his case file.

A woman who was watching over Ross’ home at 518 Country Club Road in the McHenry area

found the badly decomposed remains in November 2013. That woman reportedly lived in a second home Ross owned down the street and promised to look after the property where the remains were found.

She told police that Ross told her never to enter the room where

Two men taken into custody, one suspect sought; schools were on lockdown / A3 SPORTS

CARY – Weeks after losing an appeal regarding lot coverage calculations, Pedcor Industries has submitted a modified site plan for its proposed affordable housing complex in an attempt to comply with village ordinance.

Village officials received the plan Tuesday afternoon, Village Administrator Chris Clark said, and are in the process of checking the calculations provided

by Pedcor to make sure they are correct.

If the plan is found to be in compliance, building permits for the complex could be issued by the end of the year, Clark said.

“Obviously, this has been a project that’s taken some time to get to a possible construction stage,” Clark said. “The parties worked together to identify an approach that complied with village ordinance, which was essentially the direction of the Board of Zoning, Planning and Appeals.”

The controversial Garden Place Apartments project at First and Pearl streets was approved by a 4-2 vote of the Village Board in June 2014, but after a delay in the permit process, village officials discovered a miscalculation in lot coverage that required the company to file a variance request.

In August, the zoning board voted against a variance that would allow the project to increase lot coverage from the usual 45 percent to 55 percent. An October appeal of the initial staff

Dunkin doesn’t play by Madigan’s rules SPRINGFIELD – Governors, mayors and legislators come and go. Speaker of the House Michael J. Madigan remains.

He’s ruled the Illinois House for all but two of the past 32 years, and the political corpses of those who’ve crossed him pile up with regularity.

One of his own, however, Democratic state Rep. Ken Dunkin, recently strayed, and that appears to be frustrating the speaker.

Madigan needs every one of his 71 Democrats to show up and stay united if he is to thwart first-term Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner on their bigger battles.

Dunkin refuses to play.

Three times in the past couple of months, Dunkin has refused to follow the Speaker’s lead and let measures important to his party leader die on the House floor.

Madigan rarely speaks ill of any member of his caucus. So, at his last news conference, he brought in three nonlawmakers and let them bad mouth Dunkin.

Madigan is a disciplined operator

LOTTERY

VIEWS Scott Reeder and he expects adherence from his members. Dunkin, on the other hand, marches to his own drummer – some say in a parade of one.

Years ago, he flipped the bird to the entire House when a bill he was sponsoring didn’t pass. Even in a chamber known for raucous debate, that’s out of line.

Madigan, on the other hand, comes from a world of discipline. He was reared by a strict father, attended Catholic schools and universities and was mentored by the late Mayor Richard J. Daley.

In a oral history released this year by the University of Illinois, this is how Madigan described his relationship with Daley: “He was the commander. He would give his orders and give his directions. And this is an important point with me. It’s because there

was a group of people like myself, about the same age, who came in as ward committeemen in the early ’70s. There was Alderman Burke, Ed Vrdolyak, Tom Hynes, Congressman Lipinski, Alderman Mel and Ed Kelly.

“This was the group there that came along at about the same time, and if they were being honest with you, they would tell you that they would have trouble living under his methods. So they were duly elected to whatever office they held. After a while, they would think, ‘Well, I ought to be part of the decision making.’ So they would be troubled by that. ... But with me, I had no trouble with that at all. That was because, to me, the mayor was just a carbon copy of my father.”

That speaks volumes about Madigan.

Madigan wants the members of his caucus to submit to his authority, much like he once yielded to Daley.

And now comes Dunkin.

Dunkin has taken to bypassing Madigan and negotiating directly

with the governor.

For example, Rauner said Dunkin persuaded him to raise the eligibility requirement for families receiving child care subsidies from 50 percent of the poverty level to 162 percent.

In exchange, Dunkin agreed not to support an override that would have stripped governors from making such adjustments in the future It’s the kind of deal Madigan hates, but for Dunkin, it was an infusion of power.

Overnight, Dunkin became one of the Legislature’s most influential members – at least for the moment.

So Madigan now is casting hard looks in Dunkin’s direction, but he also might want to look over his shoulder every now and then to make sure no one’s following Dunkin’s route of escape.

Woodstock Police K-9 officer Sharon Freund and her dog, Blue, investigate the scene of a burglary Wednesday in Woodstock.

CRYSTAL LAKE – After unanimously rejecting a proposal to ask for an increase in property tax dollars, the Community High School District 155 Board voted Tuesday to maintain a flat property tax extension.

Board members initially were presented with a recommendation to approve a ballooned request for a 4.93 percent increase over last year’s extension to capture new taxable property value. However, the more realistic capped tax extension increase would have been about 1.19 percent.

After a few members expressed interest in keeping the levy flat or lowering it, all seven members voted “no” to the administration’s proposal and instead voted 5-2 in favor of maintaining a flat tax extension of about $70.4 million in capped funds.

The rejection of a levy increase came days after District 155 was named a defendant in a tax objection lawsuit filed by more than 130 plaintiffs in McHenry County Court. It serves as the second such lawsuit in which District 155 is involved.

“I cannot support this levy,” member Rosemary Kurtz said of the initial proposal, adding that she has noticed an increase in district administrators over the years despite relatively flat enrollment numbers while there has been no evidence of cost containment.

Board President Ted Wagner, Vice President Gary Oberg, members Dave Secrest, Amy Blazier, and Ann Somers voted in favor of the flat levy. Adam Guss

gage, medical bills and family expenses.

The news release also included an affidavit from Lake County State’s Attorney investigator William Biang detailing the financial dealings at the center of the ongoing investigation.

Gliniewicz’s fatal shooting Sept. 1 sparked a massive manhunt as police pursued the case as a homicide. Two months later, investigators

announced that Gliniewicz, 52, had staged his suicide to look like a homicide amid fears village officials would discover he had been stealing from the Fox Lake Police Explorer Post 300 for seven years.

In their affidavit, prosecutors alleged Joseph and Melodie Gliniewicz exerted unauthorized control over Explorer funds.

But Melodie Gliniewicz’s defense attorneys claim that

the affidavit names the wrong bank account, and transactions do not show probable cause that she was involved in any money laundering.

A U.S. Bank account for Explorers took in deposits of more than $100,000 mainly from donations or parking lot detail payments, according to the affidavit. The account also included $26,800 in direct

FRG raffling off turkeys, hams in fundraiser FOX RIVER GROVE – The Fox River Grove Firefighters Association will host its annual “Poultry Party” turkey raffle at 7 p.m. Friday at 411 Algonquin Road.

Admission to the event is free, and Fox River Grove Fire Chief Bob Kreher said the department will be selling raffle tickets for door prizes and turkeys and hams. Refreshments also will be available, he said.

About 150 turkeys and hams will be raffled, Kreher said.

Kreher said this is normally the association’s biggest fundraiser of the year, and proceeds go toward new fire and medical equipment, college scholarships for Cary-Grove students and sending children to burn camp for injured youth.

The fire department encourages attendees to park at the nearby train station parking lot.

McHENRY – McHenry Community High School District 156 is asking taxpayers for a total 2015 tax levy of $22.8 million, not including bond and interest, a district administrator said Tuesday.

“We’re going to levy for a 1.5 percent increase,” District 156 Finance Director Dave Lawson said, adding that includes the 0.8 percent rate of inflation and new property.

Based on county estimations of equalized assessed value and new property growth, Lawson said, the increase initially came out to be about 1.2 percent, but the request was inched up to cover any unaccounted for new taxable property value.

The increase was ap proved with a 6-0 vote, Lawson said. Member Michael Lovitsch was absent.

Including the extension for noncapped funds, or bond and interest, the district will be asking for a total of $26.7

million compared with last year’s extension of $25.9 million, Lawson said.

Other than plans to add to the district’s collection of Chromebooks for students, he said, the 2015 levy dollars will be allocated as usual to maintain the district and its educational programs.

Salaries and benefits account for a large majority of District 156’s budget, as with all school districts. Next year, teachers on the salary schedule will receive a 3.63 percent step increase per a

recently approved contract that came after a sevenschool-day teachers’ strike.

“Some of the money will go toward that new contract,” Lawson said. “We don’t have any construction projects planned.”

The district will meet again in December for a public hearing on the levy, after which the board will vote on whether to adopt it. All levy certificates must be filed with the county no later than the last Tuesday in December.

ganizations. The best way to find Rosemary Blazier would be at St. Thomas the Apostle, where she volunteers weekly.

You might catch the Blaziers at Centegra Health Bridge Fitness Center, where the pair exercises regularly.

If you still can’t find them, you’ll probably see them at the annual 5K Bob Blazier Run for the Arts that raises funds for Raue Center for the Arts.

The full reach of the Blaziers’ hard work, philanthropic natures and caring attitudes may not be fully grasped by all those who live in McHenry County and use the programs and organizations the couple have aided.

One thing is certain, however.

“They deserve the notoriety for everything they’ve done,” Gray said.

The Blazier legacy

Today, the Blazier name – and the Blaziers themselves – can be found all over Crystal Lake.

You might see Bob Blazier at Home State Bank, where he still works as director of communications. Or you could find him at a board meeting for the Crystal Lake Library Foundation, Senior Care Volunteer Network or other or-

It’s no surprise to John Blazier that his father, with his mother’s support, has been given many accolades over the years.

“When I think of my dad and what he’s done in this community, his leadership – [like] running a school district – I just think of a man who has core values that have

Although they’re often celebrated for the work they’ve done in Crystal Lake, the Blaziers almost never made it to the northwest suburb.

For the first 13 years of their marriage, they were educators in Jacksonville, a sophisticated town of about 25,000 in the 1950s.

“We weren’t looking to move,” Bob Blazier said.

In 1962, however, he and Rosemary were recruited by the school board in Crystal Lake – then a small town of only 8,000 residents, with four elementary schools and a junior high.

They were skeptical about leaving the jobs, friends and activities they had in Jacksonville, but the Crystal Lake school board – filled with well-educated, successful individuals led by superintendent Leon Lundahl – made a lasting impression on the couple.

“We liked the people so much, and the town was just starting to expand. Things were just starting to happen,” Bob said. “The town was very proud of the schools and supportive of education. There

aging others to do the same.

“Coming from education and then getting involved in business, [Bob] has a very good way of communicating and teaching people and getting people involved in stuff, so that’s been a big bonus in the community,” Gray said.

“Just about anything that’s happened in the community, he’s been involved in … and [Rosemary] has always been very supportive. She’s charming and a great lady.”

were a lot of couples in their early 30s – our age – raising a family.”

Plus, it was a recreational community – a positive for Bob and Rosemary, both avid golfers and recreation enthusiasts.

So they moved to Crystal Lake. Bob became principal at what now is Lundahl Middle School, and Rosemary Blazier taught physical education at what now is Husmann Elementary.

Just like that, their legacy in Crystal Lake began.

Rosemary spent 35 years in education; Bob, 36 years, including 12 years as superintendent. Bob then spent five years at the Northern Illinois Medical Center and 17 years as president of the Chamber.

Along the way, they became involved in other organizations, volunteering their time and talents and encour-

They believe in giving back to the community. So, they have.

And recently, the community gave back to them.

In September, the Crystal Lake Pump House – home to the Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce and used by more than 75 nonprofit organizations – was renamed the Blazier Center for Community, Leadership and Commerce as part of an ongoing fundraising campaign, Caldwell said. The goal is to have 1,000 people donate $75 to become a Friend of the Blaziers. Funds will aid scholarships, programming and the work of the Chamber and Chamber foundation.

It was fitting to name the building after the Blaziers, especially since Bob helped create the Chamber foundation in 2007, in part to renovate the aging pump house, Caldwell said.

“This was part of Bob’s vision – renovating the building, having it be a really great meeting space for people to create connections and do good in the community,” she said.

“The building needed to be named after [the Blaziers],” Caldwell added. “It makes it just so much more homey and special. It’s not just a building; it’s a connection, a gathering place. It’s their living legacy.”

“Their love of each other in their marriage and their love of their faith and their love of their community is something that we can all be inspired by,” Caldwell said.

“We can live that kind of life as well. It’s the small acts of kindness and commitment that really are important.”

“They’re friendly to everybody; they’re very thoughtful when they’re involved in things,” said Bob Gray, a close friend of the Blaziers who has sat on several boards with Bob. “They bring a lot of good advice and experience to what they’re involved in, and they really care. They’re always trying to help make it better. ... There are all kinds of things they’ve started that still benefit the community today. They definitely have a lasting legacy.”

driven him to excel at everything he wants to do,” John Blazier said.

Bob Blazier grew up in poverty in Kewanee. His parents died when he was young, so he was raised by his sister – “a good Christian woman,” according to John Blazier – who instilled in him a strong faith in God and an inner drive to succeed. “[He grew up believing], ‘If I’m going to go out and do anything in my life, I’ve got to do it myself,’ ” John Blazier said. “[He has always said], ‘You can do anything you put your mind to.’ ” Bob put himself through college on an athletic scholarship, and it was at Western Illinois University that he met a young woman from Spring Valley who mirrored the values Bob had come to live by: faithfully follow God, give back to the community and empower others.

They married in 1949, only one week after graduating from WIU. That was the start of a 67-year relationship that only has become stronger over time.

“We both feel we were very fortunate to find each other because our compatibility and love is the same as when we first met,” Bob Blazier said.

Throughout the years, Bob often has been the brains behind new programs, and he often receives the praise, but Rosemary Blazier always has been his rock.

“A lot of things I did, Rosemary helped with by coming and supporting me,” Bob said.

“We have lots of talks together, [and we have] excellent teamwork.”

Rosemary can’t think of any reason why she wouldn’t support her husband.

“He’s had a lot of great ideas,” she said.

While those great ideas have been long appreciated, many people respect the values of the Blaziers as much as the programs and organizations they’ve created.

Prosecutors ask Chicago police to release video of shot teenager

By DON BABWIN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Illinois’ attorney general has asked Chicago police to release a video that allegedly shows an officer shooting a black teenager 16 times last year.

The request came ahead of a Thursday hearing where a judge was expected to decide whether to order police to release dashcam video of the October 2014 shooting death of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald.

Police have said McDonald refused to drop a knife when officers confronted him while responding to a call about a person walking down a street with a knife.

Attorney General Lisa Madigan’s office sent a letter to police this month saying they had “unsubstantiated” claims that releasing the footage to a journalist would hinder an investigation or deprive anyone of a fair trial. The letter said police had no legal right Lisa Madigan to withhold the video because another agency, the Independent Police Review Authority, was conducting the investigation.

The letter was released Wednesday by the law firm representing the freelance journalist, Brandon Smith,

who filed a public records request seeking the video.

An attorney for McDonald’s family, Jeffrey Neslund, who has seen the video, said the footage shows McDonald was armed with a small knife but walking away from police when a white officer opened fire. He noted that McDonald’s mother doesn’t want the video released because she fears it could spark violence in her Chicago neighborhood similar to the riots that erupted in Baltimore and Ferguson, Missouri, after police-involved deaths of black residents.

The Chicago City Council took the unusual step in April of approving a $5 million settlement with McDonald’s family,

even though the family hadn’t sued, after being advised to do so by a city attorney who had seen the video.

An autopsy report showed that McDonald was shot 16 times, including at least twice in his back. The autopsy report also said McDonald had PCP, a hallucinogenic drug, in his system.

Police have said that the officer who shot McDonald had been stripped of his police powers and assigned to desk duty. Police have released few details about the shooting, citing the ongoing investigation, but the city’s attorney has said that McDonald was walking away from police when he was shot.

More lawsuits filed over student loans

By DAVE COLLINS The Associated Press HARTFORD, Conn. – Fall behind on your student loans these days and you could end up getting more than hectoring phone calls and threatening letters. Some lenders are taking more people to court, attorneys say.

The number of lawsuits filed over delinquent student loans that were made by private lenders has increased significantly in the past two years, lawyers told The Associated Press, even

though borrowers are missing payments much less often than they did during the height of the recession.

While no one tracks exactly how many such lawsuits are brought, an AP review of court websites in several states found several thousand, an overwhelming number of them filed since 2013.

“I’m seeing it steadily getting worse,” said Joshua R.I. Cohen, a lawyer representing people in student loan cases in Connecticut and Vermont.

“They’re going to court more

often. They’re pushing for harder settlement terms.”

Loan industry officials did not return calls or would not comment on the apparent uptick in lawsuits.

Among those who have been sued are Cohen’s clients Brett and Jennifer Rinehart, of Manchester, Connecticut. EduCap Inc., a major lender and loan administrator, took them to court in August on behalf of HSBC Bank, saying they owe nearly $59,000 on a student loan taken out by Jennifer, a teacher who earned a master’s in

education. The two sides have yet to come to terms on a repayment plan.

“I was angry,” said Brett Rinehart, who with his wife is raising two children. “We had been willing to work with them the whole time. They wanted to play hardball. It’s been very stressful. It’s a big question mark looming over our heads.”

EduCap officials didn’t return messages seeking comment. A lawyer representing EduCap in the case against the Rineharts declined to comment.

Despite heavy U.S. airstrikes, IS threat persists

By ROBERT BURNS The Associated Press WASHINGTON – In measuring progress in the American-led air war against the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq, numbers tell one story but results tell another.

Fighter jets, bombers, attack planes and drones are dropping an average of 2,228 bombs per month on targets ranging from training camps and machine gun positions to oil facilities

and weapons shacks. The Pentagon says it doesn’t do body counts, but the attacks are believed to have killed upward of 20,000 IS fighters. The U.S. price tag: $5 billion since August 2014, an average of $11.1 million each day.

The bombing has damaged or destroyed hundreds of military vehicles (including American tanks surrendered by Iraqi soldiers), thousands of buildings, hundreds of pieces of oil infrastructure and thousands

of fighting positions, among other targets, according to U.S. Central Command figures.

This sounds like a pummeling designed to bury an enemy, particularly one facing the military might and technological power of the United States.

But what has been the result? In a word, stalemate, although U.S. military officials say they see the tide gradually turning in their favor.

The key word is “gradually.” The administration has

said from the start that dealing a lasting defeat to IS will take years, that a pell-mell military approach will not work because IS is not a conventional army. But in the aftermath of the Paris terrorist attacks many are asking why the U.S. is not in a bigger hurry.

President Barack Obama said he sees encouraging progress. On Monday, he pointed to the liberation this month of Sinjar in northwestern Iraq by Iraqi Kurdish forces, the encir-

clement of IS-held Ramadi and the severing of a key highway serving as a supply route for Islamic State fighters between the northern Iraqi city of Mosul and the militant’s self-proclaimed capital of Raqqa in Syria. A key Iraqi oil refinery also has been taken from the militants.

And yet, as the Paris attacks showed, the group is now acting on global ambitions. It has withstood the aerial pounding by U.S. and coalition warplanes, defended its core ter-

Paris attacks mastermind not arrested in raid, official says The ASSOCIATED PRESS SAINT-DENIS, France – Heavily armed French SWAT teams swooped in Wednesday and neutralized a cell that was ready to launch new attacks, leaving at least two people dead after firing 5,000 rounds during an hourslong siege, a prosecutor said. Eight people were arrested.

The raid had targeted the suspected planner of the attacks, 27-year-old Abdelhamid Abaaoud, but his fate remained unclear.

Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said the identities of the dead still were being investigated, but that neither Abaoud nor the fugitive attacker Salah Abdeslam was in custody.

“At this time, I’m not in a

position to give a precise and definitive number for the people who died, nor their identities, but there are at least two dead people,” he told reporters.

Earlier, the prosecutor’s office had said the dead included a woman who detonated an explosive vest and a man hit by projectiles and grenades.

But at a later news conference, Molins clarified the earlier statement that the woman blew herself up, saying: “This point needs to be verified by an analysis of the body and human remains, as well as by all the forensic police operations that have to be carried out.”

Molins said heavily armed police squads initially were thwarted by a reinforced door to the apartment in the

Saint-Denis neighborhood north of Paris and faced nearly incessant fire as they worked to enter.

The prosecutor said the raid was launched after information from tapped telephone conversations, surveillance and witness accounts indicated that Abaaoud might be in a safe house in the Saint-Denis suburb.

Investigators have identified Abaaoud, a Belgian of Moroccan descent, as the chief architect of Friday’s attacks in Paris, which killed 129 people and wounded 368 others.

A U.S. official briefed on intelligence matters said Abaaoud was a key figure in an Islamic State external operations cell that U.S. intelligence agencies have been tracking for months.

ritories and apparently used its resiliency and social media savvy to replenish its ranks as quickly as they are reduced.

How has it managed this?

The answer lies partly in the gradualist U.S. military approach. Instead of bombing every target in sight and sending a U.S. ground invasion force, Obama has chosen to use air power more discriminately to chip away at the Islamic State, avoiding targets where civilians are endangered.

Investigators have said they believe at least 2 others involved in embezzlement • WIDOW

Continued from page A3 deposits from the village of Fox Lake, which Melodie Gliniewicz claimed were from her husband’s paychecks.

The account also received a deposit for $32,000, which Melodie said was a loan from her husband’s retirement plan.

The affidavit shows that between September 2008 and April 2015, Joseph Gliniewicz used that account for routine and more “significant” expenses. Prosecutors alleged he spent $2,455 on Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts, $8,822 on restaurants, $2,515 on the Fox Lake Theatre, $7,217 on health clubs, athletic event registration and hormonal supplements, and $2,623 on adult entertainment and dating websites.

Prosecutors also said the account funded a trip to Hawaii in August 2014 that cost $5,683.

Authorities claimed that four months later, Melodie Gliniewicz wrote a check to that account from her personal bank account for $4,275 with the note “Hawaii reimburse pd in full.”

Joseph Gliniewicz also withdrew $7,000 in cash from the Explorer’s account in March 2014 and a day later the same amount was deposited into Melodie Gliniewicz’s personal account, according

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Flanked by her sons, Melodie Gliniewicz speaks Sept. 2 during a candlelight vigil in Fox Lake for her husband, Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz. to the affidavit.

“This cash transfer may be indicative of intent to conceal the activity,” the affidavit states.

Prosecutors alleged that Gliniewicz transferred $4,000 from the U.S. Bank account to open a new Explorer account at BMO Harris Bank in March. He transferred the remaining $940 to his personal bank account at U.S. Bank on April 1, the affidavit stated.

The new Explorer account appears to have been used for personal use, but to a lesser extent, prosecutors said. In June 2015, Joseph Gliniewicz wrote a check to Donald Gliniewicz for $777 with “loan” written in the check’s memo line, according to the

affidavit. Donald Gliniewicz, also known as D.J., is one of Joseph Gliniewicz’s son.

Lake County investigators have said they believed at least two other people were involved in the embezzlement. They refuse to comment on the family’s involvement.

Lake County State’s Attorney Michael Nerheim declined to comment on the pending motion.

For her part, Melodie Gliniewicz asked the community, police, pension board and press to refrain from rushing to judgment.

“Melodie has faith the truth will come out in time,” the release stated, “and if necessary, in court.”

Two men taken into custody were not armed • BURGLARY

Continued from page A3 taken from the residence was found on the path where the suspects fled, Woodstock police detective Sgt. Jeffery Parsons said.

Parsons said police have

recovered all weapons that were supposed to have been at the residence.

“Whether [the suspects] were armed prior to their arrival there, we don’t know,” Parsons said.

Lowen said the two men who were taken into custody were not armed.

No one was home at the time of the burglary, Lowen said.

Police searched other unoccupied homes in the area, Lowen said. About 15 police officers, some using K-9s, were in the area of Laurel Avenue searching and taking photos.

Kurtz said she would have Plan needs to be re-reviewed by stormwater commission PEDCOR preferred to lower the levy •Continued from page A1 • D-155

“I don’t want to cost the district money, but I don’t want to put it on the taxpayers. We are at the behest of the taxpayers.”

Continued from page A3 and Kurtz voted in dissension, with Kurtz saying she would have preferred to have lowered the levy.

“The board looked at all issues involved, and I think based on that, this year, they’ve elected to have a zero growth in the levy,” Wagner said after the meeting.

Assistant Superintendent of Finance, Operations and Technology Jeremy Davis warned board members that maintaining a flat extension would mean taking a compounded loss of revenue to which the district was entitled.

He also brought up feared action from the state that could come down the road.

“We may be mandated to keep it flat in the future,” he

Ann Somers District 155 board member said, referring to what many area school district officials believe to be looming state legislation.

Somers expressed concern about the financial loss, but said this was a good year to keep the levy flat given the nominal 0.8 percent rate of inflation.

“I don’t want to cost the district money, but I don’t want to put it on the taxpayers,” she said, later adding, “We are at the behest of the taxpayers.”

Attorney: Defendant’s right to remain silent violated

decision that necessitated the variance was also voted down by the zoning board.

The revised plan still includes 60 units but appears to reduce lot coverage to 44.4 percent, Clark said. The major changes in this plan include a reconfigured parking lot, the removal of the swimming pool and gazebo, and a reduction in clubhouse size.

The plan also removed a third entrance point on Pearl Street that had originally been requested by the Cary Fire Protection District.

Cary Fire Capt. Andy Veath said that driveway was no longer necessary because a parking lot that had been near Pearl Street was elim-

inated in the new plan. Pedcor’s engineer worked with the fire department on that change, he said.

The company is using permeable pavement and seeking a credit outlined in Section 17 of the Village Code, which allows certain construction materials to be reduced in area by 20 percent when calculating overall lot coverage.

The plan also needs to be re-reviewed by the McHenry County Stormwater Management Commission, Clark said.

Trustee Rick Dudek, who voted for the approval of the project last summer, said he was happy Pedcor had worked to conform to code and hopeful that the new development would help address an “obvious need” in Cary.

“I’m very ecstatic that we seem to have been able to reach a compromise that’s going to be consistent with our code and allow this developer to move forward with a significant improvement to this part of town,” Dudek said.

Trustee Jim Cosler, who was elected as a write-in candidate in April after leading a citizens’ group that fought the Pedcor project, said in a statement Wednesday that he believed it “would be in the taxpayer’s best interest” for the Illinois Housing Development Authority to re-evaluate its use of tax credits on the project but that he was “content” that Pedcor decided to follow the lot coverage rules “In the end, our residents will never forget how little their opinions meant during

this drawn-out procedure,” Cosler’s statement said.

“Though there is a positive side, Cary residents have come together for our community like never before. ...

Now, as a village trustee, I am happy to be a part of that process.”

Clark said the village and stormwater reviews will likely take a couple of weeks. If the plan is approved by both, the building permit process will begin.

“We’re going to take plenty of time to go through all the calculations to verify what’s being asked,” Clark said.

“It looks to be a reasonable conclusion to this issue that popped up before the building permit was approved. It looks now that they’ve dealt with the issue and we’re ready to move forward.”

consult with an attorney “yet, the [Las Vegas detectives] persisted and continued to question the defendant. Further questions of the defendant was in violation of his right to remain silent,” Sugden said in his court filing.

Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs, who also is chief of the criminal division, said Ross didn’t explicitly ask for an attorney, and pointed out that Ross has a master’s degree and studied at Northwestern and DePaul universities and was intelligent enough to understand his rights.

“He has to be clear and unequivocal [in requesting a lawyer],” Combs said at a hearing Wednesday. “… He knew how to ask for a lawyer, and he didn’t do that.”

McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather will render a decision Dec. 17.

Continued from page A1 Schaefer’s remains were found, and threatened violence if she did, according to court documents. During the interview, Ross did admit that he sealed up the room to protect his “valuables” but said that he didn’t know how Schaefer died. He told detectives he believed she left the state.

His defense attorney, Hank Sugden, is trying to keep those recorded interviews out of a trial, arguing that Ross had asked to speak with an attorney, yet investigators kept questioning him.

In the beginning of the interview with Las Vegas detectives, Ross starts with “I’ve got nothing to say,” and “I haven’t even got to talk to a lawyer yet.”

Food service chef opens Village Board Stucky’s Bar and Grille approves 8-unit housing plan

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO

LOCAL NEWS 11

sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com

JOHNSBURG – A Johnsburg resident who since 2009 has helped make and deliver personalized meals as part of her chef service plans to bring a personal touch to her latest venture – a new family restaurant in the village.

Deb Stuckwisch earlier this month opened Stucky’s Bar and Grille with her husband, Ron, at the former Chef Davito’s Steakhouse and Italian Restaurant location, 4000 N. Johnsburg Road.

The new sit-down restaurant offers Johnsburg-area families “basic down-home cooking,” with dinner and lunch items made fresh every day, she said. The restaurant

itself offers a full-service bar, multiple TVs, a spacious dining area and a rentable private dining area for up to 50 people, Stuckwisch said.

“We are making everything from scratch. Every menu item is made by hand, so we don’t take any shortcuts,” she said. “It’s more attention to detail.”

Lunch and dinner items at Stucky’s Bar and Grille vary from burgers and sandwiches to chicken pot pie. Stuckwisch also offers salad dishes and other healthier items.

The new Johnsburg eatery will rotate specials, offering customers new and unique food and drinks daily, Stuckwisch said. On Tuesday, the restaurant featured its “Octoberfest” special, includ-

ing German-style foods and drinks. Every Wednesday, its “Ladies Night” special features signature cocktails.

A longtime personal chef, Stuckwisch started Meals Like Mom in 2009, a food service that allows customers to craft personalized meal plans with Stuckwisch’s guidance. She makes a week’s worth of meals and then delivers the items directly to clients’ doorsteps.

She said she still plans to operate Meals Like Mom and create Stucky’s Bar and Grille into a destination that makes customers feel like they haven’t left their mom’s kitchen.

“We are trying to make it a family but also a fun place to be at,” said Stuckwisch, who has lived in Johnsburg for 25 years.

PRAIRIE GROVE

Village property tax rate could fall next year, president says

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com PRAIRIE GROVE – Prairie Grove residents could see the amount they pay to the village in property taxes fall next year.

The Prairie Grove Village Board discussed its levy – which would translate into the property taxes residents pay next year – at its meeting Tuesday evening.

The board has agreed to approve a levy that is equal or less than the $365,000 it collected last year, Village President Stan Duda said. It will make an ultimate decision at its December meeting.

With the value of taxable

property in the village set to rise an estimated 3.09 percent next year, residents could see their tax rate fall nearly 3 percent with no decrease in the levy, Duda said.

“We have to be responsible,” he said. “We’re all taxpayers. We have to be responsible and accountable.

We don’t want to have a fund balance that is obnoxiously large. That’s taxpayer money. We shouldn’t be taxing for things that aren’t due.”

The proposed levy would continue a trend of lowering or keeping the amount the village collects flat, a policy that has lowered the levy 9 percent from a high of about $400,000 in 2009, according to county

records.

The board has focused on not adding “a lot of services that are frivolous,” trying “to be judicious” about maintaining equipment for public works and preserving the village’s assets and trying to keep its employees compensated competitively while ensuring the “quality of service that residents expect,” Duda said.

Any savings the village derives from coming in under budget is put toward paying down its debt or paying for projects such as the replacement of the public works building’s roof in cash, he said, adding that the village does not save beyond three to four months’ worth of expenses.

Landowner made revisions to proposal

By CAITLIN SWIECA cswieca@shawmedia.com CARY – The Village Board voted Tuesday to approve a revised plan for an eight-unit housing development at 400 Haber Road.

The positive vote comes six weeks after the board postponed a vote on the originally proposed nine-unit detached housing development for the land on Oct. 6.

Landowner David Cook presented a revised plan with four duplexes that eliminated two of the original seven variances he needed for the land and reduced the scope of the remaining five variances.

The floor plan for the homes, which Cook described as “ranch-style” at the Oct. 6 meeting, will be the same, he said. Cook also upped the number of parking spaces to 4.25 per unit based on concerns from neighbors at the October meeting.

Cook also read a letter from local real estate agent Cathy Burley, in which she stated she believed there was a demand for these types of homes (14,000 to 17,000 square feet) at Cook’s proposed price point (low $200,000 range).

Village Trustees Ellen McAlpine, David Chapman, Kim Covelli and Rick Dudek voted in favor of the project, and Mayor Mark Kownick said he would have supported it if the vote had come to him.

Board members said they appreciated Cook’s willingness to adjust based on their concerns.

“I think in addressing someone like Cathy Burley, that is a great source,” McAlpine said.

“You did take to heart what people said and you looked to make some adjustments.”

Trustee Jeff Kraus voted “no,” citing his concerns that the proposed price point was too similar to other housing available in that neighborhood. He wanted the product to be more high-end.

Trustee Jim Cosler abstained, saying he felt the new site plan should have to go before the Board of Zoning, Planning and Appeals before coming back to the board.

Community Development Director Brian Simmons and Village Attorney Adam Simon advised it did not need to go back before the zoning board because the board had already approved all the necessary variances in the plan.

“My concern is that the whole plan changed,” Cosler said. “I’m not saying I’m against this, I just think that it’s setting a precedent.”

OPINIONS THURSDAY NWHerald.com

ANOTHER VIEW

Suburbs also need watchdogs One of the most amazing aspects of the sad story of Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz, the Fox Lake cop who staged his suicide to look like a murder, is that his corrupt ways went unchecked for decades.

Gliniewicz allegedly stole for years from a youth program he ran, and he was rewarded with promotions despite a long history of accusations of sexual harassment and intimidation.

Then again, maybe this is not amazing.

Federal prosecutors, the media, civic watchdog groups and independent inspector generals keep a pretty close watch on Chicago and other big units of government. Nobody keeps the same close eye on our region’s smaller towns and suburbs. When corruption finally is unearthed in a suburb, it is not unusual to find it had been going on for a very long time, quietly tearing down the town from within.

A powerful check against public corruption, even in a small community, can be an inspector general. Every town – or a group of towns – should employ a fully empowered inspector general. When a town does not, an inspector general employed by the county should have the legal authority to step in.

Next month, Commissioner Larry Suffredin plans to introduce an ordinance calling for this arrangement in Cook County. If a suburb does not submit a regular financial audit required by state law – a common red flag of municipal mismanagement – Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart would be authorized to dispatch an inspector general. The ordinance’s emphasis, though, would be to encourage communities to voluntarily submit to oversight by a county inspector general.

The job of an inspector general in a suburb or small town is not so much to uncover criminal activity, Suffredin said, but to help the community operate more professionally and efficiently.

The kind of money-saving suggestions Chicago Inspector General Joe Ferguson has made a hallmark of his tenure, such as changing the routes for garbage trucks, can be every bit as helpful for a small suburb.

Gliniewicz is thought to have committed suicide Sept. 1 because a new Fox Lake village administrator, Anne Marrin, was asking questions, and he feared he was about to be found out. If Fox Lake had had an independent inspector general all along, it is entirely plausible the lieutenant – a 30-year veteran of the police force – would have been held to account much earlier.

A good inspector general might have noticed Gliniewicz failed to fully account for how he spent funds for the Explorer youth police training program he ran. The inspector general might have received and acted on anonymous complaints – largely ignored by the village mayor and police chief – about the lieutenant’s bad conduct. Some of those complaints dated to the 1980s.

We can imagine the inspector general’s hotline ringing off the hook.

Of the 140 towns and suburbs in Cook County, only 10 up to now have taken up Sheriff Dart – eagerly or reluctantly – on his offer to provide inspector general services. They are Country Club Hills, Crestwood, Dolton, Steger, Maywood, Richton Park, Robbins, Harvey, Midlothian and Broadview. Every town, even the smallest, could benefit by doing the same.

We don’t want to oversell this thing. Some inspector generals are more effective than others.

A multiyear study by the Better Government Association concluded inspector generals for seven major institutions, including Chicago’s City Hall and the Chicago Public Schools, have a track record that is “at best, mixed” when it comes “to busting Chicago-scale corruption schemes.”

But as Andy Shaw, president and CEO of the BGA, has argued in a weekly column he writes for the Sun-Times, the best inspector generals serve the taxpayers well. And the mere presence of an inspector general is likely to deter wrongdoing and encourage professionalism.

Every government, big or small, needs a watchdog.

ANOTHER VIEW

Daily fantasy sports in N.Y. Last week brought just the latest reminder that we live in New York state, the land of “do as I say, not as I do.”

Eric Schneiderman, state attorney general, told daily fantasy sports sites FanDuel and DraftKings to stop accepting bets in the state, saying their operations amount to illegal gambling.

We may feel differently about Schneiderman’s actions if New York state didn’t sanction gambling that involves much more chance than daily fantasy sports leagues. The last time we checked, playing the daily lottery takes no skill and relies entirely on luck.

IT’S YOUR WRITE American idealism

To the Editor: President John F. Kennedy told Congress in 1962 that if we cannot fulfill ideas at home, we cannot expect the world to accept them.

That we may be gratified, but we must not be satisfied. For our idealism must work at home first.

The torch of our idealism is not in our politics, but in our spirit. Not in our parties, but in our individual roles. That no politics nor permits can prevent the new frontiers where freedom is our pursuit to fulfill.

Our nation responds well when it is challenged. When we light candles and not curse the darkness.

Our arguments and radical refusals to hear one another is not the American frontier, not our purpose.

America is meant to do great things with great care. Our idealism is meant to spread freedom not divide it.

We made it to the moon togeth-

er, and if we are to get there again we must be together.

I think it’s time America starts moving again.

A man may die. Nations rise and fall, but ideas live on. Finally, on this Thanksgiving, let us repent and let us be thankful.

Let us remember where our blessings flow, and may He give us strength as we renew our commitment to freedom, to each other.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Styrofoam recycling

To the Editor: What a wonderful article about Ken Santowski and Chicago Logistics.

Their efforts in recycling are amazing. Unfortunately, you only mentioned their electronic recycling and not their Styrofoam recycling. Santowski collects Styrofoam at various locations and takes it to Chicago Logistics,

Their company purchased a machine that recycles Styrofoam, but the payment on this is by the ton, so they make little or no money at this. They are doing this mainly to keep it out of the landfills. Most people just throw it out, and if you put in your recycling bin, they throw it out.

Janet Kelley Crystal Lake

Why Republicans get the Fed wrong Buck up, philosophy majors: You may have taken a few hits at the latest Republican presidential debate, but central bankers had it worse.

The Federal Reserve was accused of everything from hurting savers to worsening inequality to interfering in politics.

Candidate after candidate joined the pile-on. Their criticisms are understandable, but they’re also mostly wrong.

For one thing, the candidates generally overestimated the power the Federal Reserve has over markets – a mistake conservatives, especially, should avoid.

Sen. Rand Paul and former Sen. Rick Santorum attacked the Fed for holding interest rates “artificially” low, with Paul saying it was punishing savers. We’d have to know the “natural” rate of interest to judge that claim, however, and it seems likely a weak economy has held that rate down.

Former Gov. Mike Huckabee ascribed even more power to the central bank: “I think the Fed is in big trouble because they haven’t addressed the No. 1 issue that’s hurting Americans and that’s the fact that wages for the bottom 90 percent of the economy have been stagnant for 40 years.”

The best estimates say wages haven’t actually been stagnant.

Anyway, it isn’t the Fed’s job – and isn’t within its power – to lift real wages over the long run,

VIEWS Ramesh Ponnuru and we shouldn’t want it to try.

Blaming the Fed for sometimes making the boom-bust cycle worse, as Sen. Ted Cruz did during the debate, is fair, but there’s not much a central bank can do to affect the trends in productivity that largely determine wages.

Several candidates blamed the Fed for increasing inequality because monetary expansion has pumped up stocks. It’s impossible to prove what the tighter policy they prefer would have meant for the U.S. over the past few years, but we can look at the example of the European Central Bank. Its tighter policy has been worse for the poor, not better.

Santorum and Donald Trump said the Fed was being too political, with Santorum specifying it had helped President Barack Obama by protecting the country from the negative consequences of his policies. While these remarks fit with the mood of all the other anti-Fed commentary from the candidates, they don’t fit logically: The Fed can’t be helping Obama by suppressing wage growth, crushing savers and so on.

Behind the critique of the Fed as political is a conviction its policies have been not just

too expansionary but obviously so. Even Fed Chair Janet Yellen, goes the unstated theory, knows these policies don’t serve the long-term interests of the economy; she’s just maintaining them for Obama’s sake. An alternative view – that there are reasonable arguments for what the Fed has been doing and that she agrees with them – seems a lot more plausible.

Economic pundits turn this kind of argument back on Republicans themselves.

Why, they ask, are Republicans moaning about money creation when the inflation rate is, by the standards of recent decades, so low? They offer various theories. Maybe Republicans oppose Obama so much they want to criticize everything the government is doing under him. Maybe their rich donors have an interest in monetary restraint. Or maybe their aging base is very sensitive to rising prices.

Here’s a different explanation. When the Fed is trying to be expansionary, it generally tries to bring interest rates down. Rates now have been low for a long time. The monetary base has expanded a lot during the economic crisis. Expansionary policy tends to raise the rate of inflation, and inflation seems to most people like a bad thing.

Put all that together, and it’s understandable that people worry that monetary policy is dangerously expansionary.

Conservatives, who formed a lot of their economic thinking in the late 1970s when policy really was too expansionary, are especially prone to this thinking.

They have heavyweight economists backing them up in these concerns, and they prefer rules to discretion in the conduct of monetary policy, and, therefore, dislike the ad hoc and unpredictable way the Fed has been acting in recent years. (Cruz made this point in the debate.)

These premises aren’t crazy, but they’ve led many conservatives to the wrong conclusions.

Low interest rates aren’t always a sign the Fed has loosened policy excessively. Sometimes it’s appropriate for the monetary base to expand. Modestly accelerating inflation can be an acceptable side effect of otherwise beneficial policies. It all depends on the circumstances.

In our circumstances – those of a depressed economy following the steepest fall in total spending since the 1930s – there never was a great danger of repeating the inflation of the 1970s. Republican candidates are making misguided claims about monetary policy, in short, because too many conservatives have mistaken the trends of the bell-bottom era for timeless truths.

Senior guard Talia Surges on Jacobs’ defense: “You’ve got to keep that energy up on defense. You always want to try to hold them to as little points as we can, and I thought we did that pretty well.”

CARPENTERSVILLE – Jacobs came up with enough defensive stops against Palatine in the opening game of the Dundee-Crown Thanksgiving Tournament on Wednesday to put itself in position for a second-half run.

It’s what didn’t happen for the undermanned Golden Eagles on the other end of the court that spelled trouble in a 34-21 loss to the Mid-Suburban League Pirates.

Jacobs (1-1), coming off a 48-46 win against Woodstock in its season opener Tuesday, was without guard Carly Sidor, the team’s returning leading scorer from last season’s regional runner-up.

Sidor, who had a team-high 12 points Tuesday, didn’t dress Wednesday after suffering a lower-body injury against Woodstock.

She’ll be reevaluated and her status going forward still is to be determined, Benoit said.

“She’s definitely one of our best scorers, but we knew we couldn’t let that get to us,” said senior guard Talia Surges, who had five points,

Arrieta wins honor, sets sights on future er sources suggest might be more coveted by the team this winter than even the younger David Price, the top lefthander on the market.

But for now, Arrieta and the flavor-of-the-year Cubs will settle for winning even more in November than they did in October during a deep playoff run – Arrieta becoming the third Cub in as many days to take home a major postseason award.

Kris Bryant on Monday won the NL Rookie of AP file photo the Year Award, followed by Joe Maddon’s Manager of the Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta aced out Dodgers stars Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw for the NL Cy Year Award on Tuesday.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The preseason workouts already had begun when Zoe Lindsey came to McHenry County College volleyball coach Kyle McCall, looking for a place to play.

Lindsey had committed to the University of New Orleans, but after a few weeks she wasn’t enjoying it.

“I kind of wanted a stronger academic school,” Lindsey said.

“I decided I would come here and later transfer to another school.”

Adding a Division I-caliber player seemed like a no-brainer.

The problem was t h a t t h e S c o t s Next already recruited two setters. NJCAA Division McCall agreed II national he would allow tournament: Lindsey to join MCC vs. Cowley the team, but she County CC w o u l d h a v e t o (Kansas), 1 p.m. compete for the Thursday starting position.

“I had some confidence coming from a Division I program,” Lindsey said.

“That was kind of on my side. But at the same time, they had already pictured who their starting setter would be from the beginning.”

In the ensuing weeks, Lindsey won the starting job. The McHenry grad learned to mesh with the five returning players from last season, as well as the newcomers.

The late addition of Lindsey provided an extra boost to the Scots. Her ability to spread the ball to the Scots’ hitters is one of the many reasons they have qualified for the NJCAA Division II national tournament in Phoenix.

The No. 9-ranked Scots (38-7) will play No. 8 Cowley (Kansas) at 1 p.m. Thursday in the opening round. With a win, they will advance to play top-ranked Parkland (53-0) on Friday.

Honoring veterans, enhancing team unity

PRAIRIE RIDGE FOOTBALL

At the beginning of the season – before the Prairie Ridge football team won the Fox Valley Conference Fox Division and before the Wolves advanced to the Class 6A state semifinals – they sat in a classroom after a long two-a-day practice. Defensive backs coach John Caldarella gave each player a used bullet casing and a sharpie.

They all wrote an individual goal on their empty shell. Then, they slipped them into an empty tank shell that Caldarella got from his son in the Marines.

“The idea was each person has an individual goal that they can do this year to help us our reach big goal,” Caldarella said. “Which is sacrificing for one another, honoring our veterans and winning football games.”

The Wolves (12-1) welded a top on the tank shell. Before every game, each player touches it and then a captain carries it onto the field as a symbol of what the team is trying to accomplish.

The shell was on the sideline for the first game against CaryGrove. It will be there again Saturday when the Wolves travel to play Montini in a Class 6A state semifinal game.

The tank shell serves not only as the team’s symbol but also as a way to honor the military, something the Prairie Ridge football team had done for years. More than two dozen Wolves football players who graduated in the past 15 years have gone on to serve in various branches of the military.

“We love the way they do things,” senior defensive back Nick Greenberg said. “Their dedication, their hard work, their camaraderie. The way they work as a team.”

This season, the Wolves have worn patches on their uniforms to honor veterans, hosted a veterans night at the school, collected items for care packages, sold T-shirts and donated money to veterans’ organizations.

“We look at our veterans and our military as some great role models with courage, honor, self-discipline, self-sacrifice,” said Caldarella, who served in the Army. “We try to emulate those goals for these kids, not only when they’re in high school but when they grow up and they’re husbands and members of society.

They can bring some of that with them.”

Last season, the Wolves imparted these lessons on their players in another way. Each player received a dog tag at the beginning

Young Award, the Baseball Writers’ Association of America announced Wednesday.

Cutler, not Manning, is the real newsmaker No matter where you turn these days, it seems the narrative surrounding the Bears meeting with the Denver Broncos at Soldier Field this Sunday starts and ends with Peyton Manning and Brock Osweiler.

I get it. Manning, possibly the greatest quarterback of all time is being forced to the sideline against his will, and the unknown Osweiler will get his first NFL start over the once-thought-to-be immortal one.

But the truth is neither of them will have anywhere near the impact on the outcome of the game that Bears quarterback and former Bronco Jay Cutler will.

Manning belongs on the bench right now, but this is not the end.

Whether it’s one week or three or

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush four, he will heal up his feet, his ribs and whatever else has been bothering his once infinite but now rapidly decaying football skills and his final and far more memorable chapter will be written some time later in the season.

As for Osweiler, I have neither the time nor the inclination to research how many young men actually have made their first starts as NFL quarterbacks – it must be in the thousands, isn’t it? – but Osweiler is only one more.

Huntley doubles One more win wins up on South Elgin the West

By JESSE SEVERSON jseverson@shawmedia.com DeKALB – The hope for Detroit is alive and well for the Northern Illinois football team.

Sophomore running back Jordan Huff had a career night and the NIU defense came up with two critical stops late for a 27-19 win over Western Michigan on a windy Wednesday night at Huskie Stadium.

“I feel like we came together as a team when it was time to step up,” said senior linebacker Boomer Mays, who had a teamhigh 15 tackles.

With the win, the Huskies (8-3 overall, 6-1 Mid-American Conference West) control their own destiny for a trip to the MAC Championship game Dec. 4 in Detroit. NIU closes out its regular season against Ohio at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at Huskie Stadium.

“In my five years here, it’s always a senior-led team and it always will be,” NIU coach Rod Carey said. “Now you have a game to win the West. Before that, it was one week at a time.

Now you have a game to win the West.”

The Huskies, who have won the MAC West five straight years, have beaten Western Michigan (6-5, 5-2 MAC West) in seven consecutive seasons.

“There are no moral victories for our program,” Western Michigan coach PJ Fleck said.

Pinned down on their 3-yard line with a one-point lead early in the fourth quarter, the Huskies went 97 yards in three plays – capped by a 53-yard touchdown pass from redshirt freshman Ryan Graham to Kenny Golladay to put them ahead 27-19.

Western Michigan had the ball first-and-goal from the Huskies’ 4 in the closing minutes, but the NIU defense came up with four consecutive stops with 2:41 remaining in the game. In their final drive of the game, the Broncos started on the NIU 44, but eventually turned the ball over on downs.

“When the plays present themselves, I have faith in all these guys that they’ll make them,” Carey said.

Playing in his first home start, Graham finished 11 for 23 with 158 yards and two touchdowns. He found Golladay four times for 93 yards. Graham had an interception on a deep pass to Golladay in the closing seconds of the first half. Both of Graham’s touchdowns came throwing into the wind.

“The wind was going crazy tonight,” Graham said. “Throwing with it, the ball just took off on me. Throwing into it, I had a little more control.”

Huff, who had a 44-yard run on that three-play, 97yard drive, finished with a career-high 159 yards on eight carries and added an 87-yard TD of his own in the first half.

Joel Bouagnon added 70 rushing yards on 21 carries, along with his 18th rushing touchdown of the season. “[Bouagnon] is more of the thumper,” Fleck said. “[Huff] is explosive. If you let him outside in the gap, he’s gone.”

Western Michigan junior QB Zach Terrell went 20 for 36 with 316 yards, two TDs and an interception to Albert Smalls in the third quarter.

“After the game, we’d say, ‘I played this game for you,’ ”

Greenberg said. “I hope I can look you in the eye and say, ‘I did everything that I could for you as my brother.’ ” Caldarella said he hopes these lessons extend beyond the football field.

“Think about that life lesson, too,” he said. “You have to live a life completely for other people and try to sacrifice and put other people ahead of you.”

four assists and five rebounds. “We just have to try and elevate our level of play as much as we can. A lot of us need to step up more.”

Without Sidor, the Eagles were held to single digits in all four quarters, going scoreless in the final 12 minutes after staying within striking distance of Palatine.

Palatine led 19-14 at halftime and 29-21 after three.

“We stayed positive in the huddle and encouraged different kids to step up and create opportunities for their teammates,” Benoit said.

The Eagles tried to go inside late, but were unable to penetrate Palatine’s interior defense.

Although the Eagles couldn’t convert on the offensive end, the defense stepped up, forcing 16 turnovers. Jacobs also had the advantage on the boards with 26 rebounds to Palatine’s 18.

Maggie Grady (four points) led all players with six rebounds, while Kerri Healy added four.

Nicole Durben stepped up in the absence of Sidor, leading the Golden Eagles off the bench with six points on two 3-pointers, both from the corner.

Her first 3 in the final seconds of the first quarter cut Palatine’s lead to 10-9, and her second 3 brought Jacobs within one point, 15-14, with 3:40 left in the first half.

“I was kind of nervous, but once I made those 3s, I was like, ‘I got this,’ ” said Durben, who was 2 of 3 from long range.

Jacobs led twice, each time by one point. The Eagles grabbed their second lead of the game on a cutting drive and layup from Surges, who was fouled on the play and gave the Eagles the lead to start the second.

It’s the 13th time a team as won 3 of 4 individual awards • CUBS

Continued from page B1 It’s the 13th time in history one team has won three of the four annual Baseball Writers Association of America Awards, first since the 2001 Seattle Mariners. It’s only the ninth time the awards went to three different individuals on the same team.

No team has swept all four (the Cubs don’t have a finalist for Thursday’s MVP).

“To be part of that with those guys and to do what we did as an organization this year is really, incredibly special,” he said, “and something we look to build on.”

That’s why Arrieta (22-6,

1.77 ERA) sounded so eager to talk about the future of this young Cubs team after a season in which he led the majors in wins, finished second to Greinke (1.66) in ERA, led the majors in complete games (four) and shutouts (three) and threw a no-hitter.

“To have the pieces that we have aligned for next season and a number of years to come, it looks like we’re going to have a pretty bright future,” said Arrieta, who set major league records for ERA after the All-Star game (0.75 in 16 starts) and ERA in the final 20 starts of a season (0.86).

The bigger issue – at least as big as Greinke’s flirtation with the Cubs – might be how much of that future will in-

clude Arrieta, who’s under club control through arbitration for two more seasons.

Arrieta, whose career took a dramatic upward turn since his 2013 trade to the Cubs, called extension talks “inevitable,” but made no predictions on how they would turn out.

“I don’t think there’s a tremendous amount of angst on my part to get something done immediately, but that doesn’t mean that something can’t happen,” said Arrieta, 29, who reached 200 innings for the first time in his career.

“My focus right now is, obviously, that I know I’m still with the Chicago Cubs, and I couldn’t be (more) excited and happy for the opportuni-

BOSTON – Former NFL quarterback Doug Flutie said both of his parents died within an hour of each other.

Flutie wrote: “They say you can die of a broken heart and I believe it.”

ty we’re going to have for this team.”

The Cubs met with Arrieta’s agent, Scott Boras, during the GM meetings on more than one topic. But a multiyear extension is no better than an extreme long shot at this point.

The Cubs are trying to use what resources they have this winter to add pieces for an extended competitive run, and Boras already has compared Arrieta’s career arc to Max Scherzer, the 2013 Cy Young winner who got a $210 million deal from the Nationals as a free agent last winter.

“If nothing does transpire, then we proceed to spring training, and I’m still a Cub,” Arrieta said.

Bert Olmstead, the Hall of Fame left winger who played on five Stanley Cup championships teams during his 14-year NHL career, has died. He was 89.

Olmstead had 181 goals and 421 assists in 848 regular-season games for the Hawks.

Lindsey fits in well • MCC

Continued from page B1 “It was nice when she just sort of showed up and had been used to playing at an elite level,” McCall said.

“She just fit in really well with the other girls that we had. It was just another great piece to the puzzle.”

This year marks the Scots’ first appearance in the national tournament since 2009 and the first for coach McCall and his staff. When he took over the program three seasons ago, he joked that he walked the halls looking for “tall girls who might know what a volleyball is.”

The Scots won only six matches all season in 2013.

But with a fresh lineup, he quickly has turned MCC into top 10 team.

“When we first came together three years ago, our aspirations were to make MCC into a nationally known program,” he said. “We didn’t know how long it was going to take. We’re happy and surprised at the same time that it happened so fast.”

As the Scots prepared for nationals last week, Lindsey was asked at practice if she ever reflects on the decision to join MCC. “I think I made the right decision coming here,” Lindsey said. “I still catch up with the girls in New Orleans and see how their team is doing. But compared to how we’re doing here, I’m in a much better position.”

BEARS NOTES

Porter preps for another matchup with Thomas

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com LAKE FOREST – Another week of familiarity for the Bears’ coaching staff with an AFC West opponent means the same for Tracy Porter, who played for the Denver Broncos in 2012 and then the Raiders in 2013.

Although Porter admitted he doesn’t have nearly the intimate knowledge about Denver as Bears coach John Fox, offensive coordinator Adam Gase and other staff members who came to the Bears from Denver, he does know the Broncos’ top receiver pretty well – Demaryius Thomas.

“I remember every time I covered him,” Porter said after Wednesday’s practice. “He’s been the same guy from when I was there to the time I left. Talented guy. Runs good routes, can get open, strong guy. He’s a very talented player.”

After covering Thomas in practice in ’12, Porter covered him in two Raiders-Broncos games in 2013. He explained the keys to keeping Thomas – who has only one touchdown this season – in check.

“Stay tight in your coverage and make it as difficult on him and the quarterback as possible,” he said.

Tracy Porter

Demaryius Thomas

“There’s no magic potion you can put on to say, ‘This is what I’m going to do to stop him,’ you just have to be tight in coverage on him.”

McClellin gives ‘D’ a boost: Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio heaped praise on Shea McClellin, who led the team in tackles and forced a turnover in Sunday’s 37-13 win over the St. Louis Rams, for his play as well as his recovery time.

“Shea’s a stud,” Fangio said.

“That was a four- to six-week injury and he came back right on the four-week mark. A lot of guys are at the six- or seven-week mark and he came right back as early as he could and he went out there and played good and made his presence felt early with a big strip fumble.”

Just another game: In the public eye, Fox is doing his best to make it clear this game is no different.

“Yeah, it was a good run. I was there four years. I thank Mr. (Pat)

Bowlen for the opportunity,” he said about Denver and it’s majority owner. “Now, my life’s changed and I’m here. It’s a big game for both teams, I’m sure. I know it is for us and like all games we’re looking forward to it.”

Porter said if Fox felt any differently about the matchup, he’s not letting the players know.

“He wants every one. There are certain games on schedules that as a human being you look a little bit more into. Maybe he is, maybe he isn’t, but he hasn’t shown it to us in practice.”

Injury report: LB Pernell McPhee (knee) and WR Eddie Royal (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

McPhee did not practice all last week before missing Sunday’s game. Royal has missed the past two weeks of practice.

The Bears listed WR Alshon Jeffery as limited with groin and shoulder injuries. Jeffery played 35 of the team’s 65 offensive snaps in Sunday’s win. RB Matt Forte (knee), C Hroniss Grasu (neck), LB Shea McClellin (knee) and S Antrel Rolle (ankle) also were limited.

DE DeMarcus Ware – who leads the Broncos with 6.5 sacks – did not practice, and Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said they do not expect him to play Sunday.

FIVE-DAY PLANNER THURSDAY

Continued from page B1 If the Broncos are going to win Sunday, it’s going to be because of their defense and running game, and there’s no way Osweiler can be any worse than Manning was Sunday. He probably can’t be any worse than Manning has been most of this season.

For the Bears, however, as he has been in each of their four wins and surprisingly competitive losses to Minnesota and Detroit, Cutler does have to be the Bears’ leading man again.

Each week since their 0-3 start, these Bears have intrigued us with something new. This week, it will be how they fare against the NFL’s best defense.

The only comp we have at the moment is the Seattle game in which Cutler was unable to go and the Bears were trashed, 26-0.

We keep holding our breath, waiting to see if bad Jay still is lurking somewhere, but Cutler has passed every test.

This will be a horse of a different color.

The Broncos lead the league in quarterback sack percentage, have 32 QB sacks, are 11th in interception percentage and have picked off nine passes, two in a game four times.

The matchups are even scarier. I asked Broncos coach Gary Kubiak if his best pass rusher, DeMarcus Ware, would be available and he said, “I don’t think DeMarcus is going to make it.”

Good news if you’re a Bears fan, but it still leaves the Broncos with four other players with three or more sacks, including Von Miller with five, and Antonio Smith has 2½ and rookie Shane Ray has two.

The Bears’ pass protection isn’t perfect, so how Cutler reacts to the pressure will be key.

Denver also boasts three standout cornerbacks, Pro Bowlers Aqib Talib and Chris Harris Jr. and Bradley Roby.

How Cutler takes care of the football will be the difference in the outcome of the game.

Here’s the good news: Through nine weeks, Cutler has thrown only five picks.

The longest he’s lasted in nine

previous NFL seasons without throwing at least five picks is six games, which he’s done twice.

In five of his nine seasons, he’s thrown five or more picks by Week 4.

Cutler has thrown 2.6 touchdowns for every interception he’s thrown this season. His career average is 1.5.

His career interception percentage is 3.3, but this year it’s 1.8.

The fact is, although the Bears are the flavor of the week in many NFL circles, being talked about as one of the hotter 4-5 teams still in playoff contention, they have yet to beat a team with a winning record.

If Cutler takes care of the football against the Broncos’ pressure, that’s another hurdle the Bears can clear this week. If they do, it will be impossible not to include them in the wild-card conversation down the stretch.

All eyes should be on No. 6 in navy and orange.

Feelings hurt in high school Reason we sleep may be to linger long after graduation flush brain of waste material Dear Abby: I loved the letter from “Ready For The Reunion” (July 31), who wondered why some people in her high school graduating class didn’t respond to the notice of the reunion. Some of us would like to completely forget high school and everything associated with it.

I missed my 10th, 20th, 30th and 40th year reunions. I did consider going to the last one, but then I started reading my former classmates’ posts on the reunion website. It seems everyone is retired, wealthy, has numerous grandchildren, at least one retirement home in an exotic locale and spends their time relaxing and jetting around (or so they say). I’m still working, not wealthy, not particularly successful and have moved from my home state to the backwoods of middle America. Basically, I have a boring life, so I have nothing to brag about. I didn't go.

I’m still in contact with the important people in my life from high school and just don’t need the aggravation of attending a reunion. – Stay-

ing Home Dear Staying: Thank you for your input. I received a large number of responses to that letter, many of which were emotionally charged: Dear Abby: My class just had its 45th reunion. I live 20

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips

I ignore the invitations because my mother taught me if I can’t say anything nice, I should say nothing at all. –

Ray In Scottsdale, Arizona Dear Abby: Successful turn-

miles away, but have never attended one and I never will.

My best friend and I were bullied, insulted and excluded by our high school peers. After 45 years, we are still close friends. Neither of us has any desire to see any of those people ever again.

High school was a miserable experience for us, and we couldn’t wait to graduate and go off to college. Why would we want to socialize with them now? We forgave them long ago, but have no desire to relive those days. People need to realize sometimes we move on and don’t need to revisit the past. – Carol In

outs often occur as a result of personal outreach from the committee. A personalized note, phone call or other kind of targeted communication (“Dear Susie, we'd love to see you again. Please come.”) will make a difference to an alum.

experience was traumatic to the point it put me in therapy.

People who look forward to these things look back on their high school days with fondness. I’m guessing that’s because they weren’t picked on for being fat, not coming from a rich family or being a minority.

I would rather walk barefoot across broken glass than spend another minute with my high school classmates.

many of the graduates never received the invitation. Email contact information, phone numbers and addresses change often. I didn’t receive anything about my 10-year reunion, but a few of my friends said they did. I can’t respond to an invitation I didn’t receive. – Rod In Omaha

Dear Dr. K: A friend told me the reason we sleep is to “flush out” our brain. What is this all about? Is this the reason we sleep?

Dear Reader: Many readers have written asking why we sleep, and we discussed it in yesterday’s column. Today we will talk about the recent study you are asking about, which suggests one reason we sleep may be to flush out the brain.

For those who didn’t read yesterday’s column, a quick summary. There is evidence during sleep our mind and body benefit in several ways. Perhaps most obvious is our muscles get a rest. The fortunate exception is the special muscle that is our heart. We don’t want it to quit pumping – ever.

Do our other organs need a rest? Most of them keep working while we sleep.

But they all sustain some wear and tear from their work, during both the day and night. Therefore, they may need to repair certain injuries that have occurred during the day. During deepest sleep, hormones are released that stimulate tissue growth and muscle repair. And your immune system becomes primed to

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff defend itself against infection the next day.

Does our brain need the rest? Brain waves are very active during sleep, but our brain is doing different things during sleep than when awake. For example, it dreams. Which raises the question of why we dream. Sigmund Freud thought dreaming was our way of dealing with hidden conflicts, desires and fears.

He thought we needed to sleep because we needed to dream.

In the past 10 years, scientists here at Harvard Medical School and elsewhere have published a great deal of evidence that dreaming (and, hence, sleeping) is important in memory and learning.

Now to your question. A truly remarkable study was published two years ago. To explain what was found, I first need to explain some concepts. Our brains are filled with billions of different kinds of cells. Between those cells is space through which fluid passes. It’s as if there are little rivers run-

ning through the brain.

The study was of mice, whose brains are not terribly different from ours in many respects. (Granted, their brains couldn't come up with the theory of general relativity. But their brains are much better than ours at smelling cheese.)

The study found during sleep, the little rivers that run between brain cells increase greatly in size. As a result, many substances made by brain cells (including cell waste material) get flushed out of the brain much more efficiently.

For example, two molecules called beta-amyloid and tau are flushed out of the mouse brain more efficiently during sleep. These two molecules build up in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease.

So maybe your friend is right. One important purpose of sleep might be to clear potentially toxic material out of the brain. And perhaps we feel restored in the morning for that reason. It is an arresting, and plausible, possibility.

Teen should share decision to change religions with parents Dr. Wallace: I’m 18 and a freshman at Utah State University. I have been raised in the Catholic faith.

In fact, my mom’s brother is a priest.

This past summer, a friend introduced me to the Mormon (Latter Day Saints) religion. I attended a few services and have decided to become a member. I like the fact Mormons are familyoriented and forbid smoking and drinking. These are things I always have believed in and practiced.

In two months, I will be a member of my new church.

I know my parents will not be happy when they find out

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Dr. Robert Wallace I’ve turned my back on the religion of my birth, but I’m 18 and need to live my life the way I want to.

Should I tell my parents now about my newfound religion or wait until I know more about LDS beliefs so I can better give them all the reasons for leaving my old church? – Nameless, St.

George, Utah Nameless: Changing your religious faith is a huge

decision. You are old enough to decide on your religious preference, but you owe it to your parents to discuss it with them before you make the final decision. Tell them immediately.

I’m positive the leaders of the LDS church would want you to inform your family before making your commitment to become a Mormon. It might be wise to have a member of the LDS church with you when you talk to your parents. That way many of their questions could be answered.

Dr. Wallace: You said teens should set goals and work diligently to reach them.

Did you set goals before you attended college? And if so, did you reach them?

Also, if you were not a columnist for teens, what would you like to be doing to earn a living? – Carley, Rock

Island Carley: My prime goal

when entering Knox College was to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in four years. I reached that goal. My next goal was to teach and be a varsity basketball coach at the high school level. Earning a master’s degree in education at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb helped me reach goal number two.

My educational experiences

gave me the background to reach goal number three – to write a syndicated column for teens.

I thoroughly enjoyed my years as teacher and coach, and feel fortunate and privileged to be able to write a syndicated column for teens. I don’t plan to change careers, but still, since you ask, there are some options that would be fun to explore.

For instance, I’d consider giving up this column to become manager of the Chicago Cubs or, perhaps, conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra. And I wouldn’t mind starring in a movie with Robert De

Niro and Julia Roberts.

Being president of Harvard University doesn’t sound too bad, either.

But my chances of being a major league manager, an orchestra conductor, a screen actor or the president of Harvard are fantasies.

Teens must set goals that might be attained within the limits of their talents. I’m also aware one person’s fantasy could well be another’s talent. If teens think they can accomplish their goals, then they should go for them 100 percent.

BECKHAM IS PEOPLE’S SEXIEST MAN ALIVE

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Thursday, November 19, 2015 • Section B • Page 8

LOS ANGELES– British soccer star David Beckham has been an international sex symbol for nearly two decades, but he said he’s still flattered to be named People magazine’s 30th-anniversary Sexiest Man Alive.

“It’s a huge honor,” the 40-year-old Beckham told the magazine, which announced its choice on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on Tuesday night. “I’m very pleased to accept,” he said.

And his famous fashion designer wife, Victoria Beckham, approves, too, Beckham said.

At last! Sheldon, Amy take big step on ‘Big Bang Theory’

AP file photo

Joshua Homme of Queens of the Stone Age performs Jan. 26, 2014, at the 56th annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. Homme was scheduled to perform Friday with his band Eagles of Death Metal at the Bataclan venue in Paris, where patrons were taken hostage.

Eagles of Death Metal is safe, ‘horrified’ by Paris attacks NEW YORK – Members of the Eagles of Death Metal band said they’re home safe after the Paris attacks and “are horrified and still trying to come to terms with what happened in France.”

The U.S. band was performing at the Bataclan when the deadly attacks occurred. Last Friday’s night of terror in Paris killed 129 people and wounded over 350 others.

“Our thoughts and hearts are first and foremost with our brother Nick Alexander, our record company comrades Thomas Ayad, Marie Mosser, and Manu Perez, and all the friends and fans whose lives were taken in Paris, as well as their friends, families, and loved ones,” the band said in a statement released Wednesday.

Eagles of Death Metal released a new album, “Zipper Down,” last month.

They were on a European tour. The band said all shows are on hold until further notice.

“Although bonded in grief with the victims, the fans, the families, the citizens of Paris, and all those affected by terrorism, we are proud to stand together, with our new family, now united by a common goal of love and compassion,” the band said.

BURBANK, Calif. – Sheldon and Amy are taking their relationship into a bold new frontier on ‘The Big Bang Theory” next month.

The on-again, off-again couple will have sex for the first time in an episode taped Tuesday and set to air Dec. 17 on CBS. “After over five years of dating, we felt the time was right for Sheldon and Amy to finally consummate their relationship, and we’re so excited for the audience to see the journey over the next several episodes,” executive producer Steve Molaro said in a statement.

Jim Parsons stars as Sheldon Cooper and Mayim Bialik as Amy Farrah Fowler, scientists who are challenged by romance. “The Big Bang Theory,” in its ninth season, is TV’s top-rated sitcom.

Cate Blanchett honored at Museum of Modern Art

NEW YORK – Cate Blanchett, accepting an honor for her film work, made reference to the recent attacks in Paris and Beirut and said her own efforts “feel very insignificant” in view of what’s happening in the world.

Blanchett was honored Tuesday evening at the Museum of Modern Art’s eighth annual film benefit, which raises funds so that important cinematic works can join the museum’s collection.

“All my efforts do feel very insignificant in view of what’s going on in the world at the moment, the horrific events in Europe and the Middle East,” Blanchett said, “and the thousands of refugees who travel across the borders, and their plight, their peril has become even more precarious and difficult.

NEW YORK – Carly Simon says the second verse of her infamous song “You’re So Vain” is about Warren Beatty.

The 70-year-old singer told People magazine that she’s “confirmed that the second verse is Warren.” She added that Beatty “thinks the whole thing is about him!”

Simon will release the memoir, “Boys in the Trees,” on Nov. 24. The subjects behind “You’re So Vain,” released in 1972, have been a matter of speculation for years.

The singer said the No. 1 hit is about three men, including Beatty, though she isn’t naming the others.

Simon was married to James Taylor, and People says she has been linked to Mick Jagger, Kris Kristofferson, Jack Nicholson and Cat Stevens.

Enya returns with ethereal style she’s made her own

NEW YORK – The Irish singer Eithne Ni Bhraonain – known to the world as Enya – has essentially created her own style of music and sold some 80 million CDs in three decades. Yet when she leaves a hotel after talking about her first new work in seven years, chances are she will walk Manhattan streets unnoticed.

It’s an enviable place to be in a celebrity-soaked world.

“As a musician, I love the fact that the success was on the music,” she said. “I always say that fame and success are two very different things. ... I had a choice – and not a lot of people have this choice – of whether to seek fame with this music or whether to stay back behind the music and let the music speak for itself. And, really, that’s what I did.”

Enya’s music re-enters the spotlight on Friday, with the release of “Dark Sky Island.” It debuts the same day another one-named powerhouse comes out with her new album – Adele with her “25.”

Jimmy Nick to record live blues album at Raue

By JAMI KUNZER jkunzer@shawmedia.com

W

hen blues artist Jimmy Nick takes the stage Nov. 21 at the Raue Center for the Arts in Crystal Lake, he’ll be recording his first live album.

The 25-year-old Nick of Crystal Lake and his high-energy shows, often performed with his band, Don’t Tell Mamma, are known throughout McHenry County and Chicago, where he’s performed regularly for the past four years.

Described as “an old-fashioned, guitar-slinging blues prodigy,” Nick often plays the blues and rock and roll of the ’50s and ’60s, but in his own modern way.

He draws both young and old fans.

“The music we play appeals to people in their 40s to 60s, but we do it in a very energetic way so the young crowd digs it as well,” Nick said.

Winning numerous accolades in various Blues Challenges throughout Chicago, Nick began performing at age 16, landing gigs at Buddy Guy’s Legends, The Kingston Mines, B.L.U.E.S. on Halstead and other Chicago venues and sharing the stage with artists, such as Los Lonely Boys, Ted Nugent, Savoy Brown and others.

With Don’t Tell Mamma backing him up, he’ll compete in January at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Tennessee, where he’ll join more than 250 bands from around the world. Nick and his band were semi-finalists in the 2013 international contest.

The competition features the world’s largest gathering of blues acts, with bands competing for cash prizes and industry recognition.

“It’s the best bands in the world competing to see who is the next big blues

JIMMY NICK & DON’T TELL MAMMA WHEN: 8 p.m. Nov. 21 WHERE: Raue Center for the Arts, 26 N. Williams St., Crystal Lake COST & INFO: Jimmy Nick is an old-fashioned, guitar-slinging blues prodigy. Tickets: $15 in advance, $20 at the door. Tickets and information: 815-356-9212 or www. rauecenter.org. band,” Nick said. “All the major blues labels look at you.”

Having recorded three albums – the latest, “Rare Breed,” in 2014 – Nick will use the best of his Raue performance of

both original and cover songs for a fourth album.

When asked about his influences, he said, “I love this question. I’m a good mix of Angus Young from AC/DC, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bobby Rush, Howlin’ Wolf, Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley.

“These are probably the six big guys that when I take the stage I’m channeling the most.”

He said his fans tend to stick with him.

“You remember the show and the energy, and it turns people’s heads,” he said.

“I have incredible fans and friends that support me. The fans, they’re in it with me. I think it’s because we go 100 percent every night. Two people, 200 people, it doesn’t matter, it’s going to be the same high-energy show, but it’s always a little different and unique.”

– Parkside Pub bartender Leanne Belknap on the pub’s annual turkey testicles

Trio of festivals to bring turkey testicles, crowds to the area

T

Story by JAMI KUNZER • jkunzer@nwherald.com

here should be plenty of turkey testicles to go around this Thanksgiving eve.

With festivals in Huntley and Union, along with a new addition in East Dundee this year, fans of the annual night-before-Thanksgiving treat – or, for many, dare food – have options.

In its 33rd year, the longest-running Turkey Testicle Festival takes place from 11 a.m. to midnight Nov. 25 at Parkside Pub in Huntley, where at least 5,000 people are expected to fill the pub and a heated tent throughout the day.

“It’s just become tradition,” said J.R. Westberg, who co-owns Parkside with Jeff Lovell. “I’ve had people here from Australia, Japan, all over the world.

Northwest Herald file photos ... I think it started with students coming home from FROM TOP: Marge Vetter of Carpentersville tastes her first fried turkey testicle during a previous Turkey Testicle Festival at Parkside Pub in Huntley. Jimmy Benitez breads turkey testicles before college about 10 to 15 years ago, and it’s continually progressed since then.” they are fried during the 31st annual Turkey Testicle Festival at Parkside.

Along with serving up about 1,200 pounds of turkey testicles – yes, they’re exactly what they sound like – Parkside will host performances by three popular bands, 7th Heaven, Modern Day Romeos and Sixteen Candles, and is offering a new Platinum Pass this year.

The pub once again will offer its VIP pass at $20 a person at www.turkey-testicle-festival.ticketleap.com, which basically gets festival-goers to the front of the line. Those who don’t mind waiting can pay $10 at the door, with admission costs going to area charities.

“The line could take you an hour, depending on when you come,” said Leanne Belknap, a bartender at Parkside for the past six years.

The new Platinum Pass, $50 at www. turkey-testicle-festival.ticketleap.com, comes with front-of-the-line access, as well as a long-sleeve t-shirt, a sample cup of nuts and access to a Platinum Pass area, including a private bar, bathrooms and the chance to hang with the bands.

As for the main draw – the testicles – well, they’re more of an acquired taste, said Belknap, who personally isn’t a fan.

“They smell really good, and they look phenomenal, but when you bite into them they have kind of a mushy feel,” she said. “Some people love them. Some people don’t. Maybe it’s the fact that what they’re eating grosses them out.”

They have the texture of fried mushrooms, Westberg said. To spruce them up, patrons have been known to put hot sauce on them or dip them in ranch dressing, Westberg said, “and of course washing them down with a cold beverage is preferred.”

To Jim Hennig, who originally started the festival at Parkside before buying Clasen’s Tavern in Union and hosting his own Turkey Testicle Festival there for the past three years, they’re a cross between a chicken gizzard and a chicken liver.

“We don’t cut them up,” he said of Clasen’s “secret” recipe. “Some cut them up and heavily bread them. We leave them large.”

Clasen’s is hosting two days worth of festivities this year, with Turkey Testical Festival events Nov. 21 and 25. The festivities will include performances

by Alex Corn and Joey Sunset Band on Nov. 21 and Street Corner Blues on Nov. 25. Each event’s $5 admission cost will

benefit the Union Fire Department.

The tavern expects to reach capacity – about 500 people – both days, Hennig said.

As for the other area festivals, he said, “I don’t think it’s a competition at all. I think it’s like St. Patrick’s Day. There’s plenty to go around. … It’s just so unique, and it’s the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving, such a huge night to seep people in town.”

That’s the hope of Cliff Surges, an East Dundee businessman and member of the Dundee Foundation, which is hosting The Turkey Festival in East Dundee, along with the East Dundee Volunteer Firefighters Association. The inaugural event will take place from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Nov. 25 at The Depot on River Street.

The word “testicle” might not be in the title, but they’ll be there. Organizers removed the word because it tended to be censored in promotional emails and social media, Surges said.

The event will include a “Testes Throwdown” with three area food vendors – Blues BBQ and Grill, Emmetts and Randall Roadhouse – competing to make the best “finger-licking-good turkey parts.”

“We’re not trying to step on anybody else’s toes. We’re saying there are alternatives,” Surges said. “It’s the biggest bar night of the year.”

Among the bands playing in East Dundee are 7th Heaven, Mason Rivers, Cinful and HiFi Superstar.

The festivities, held in several heated outdoor tents on and around The Depot grounds, also include a meat raffle and games.

Admission is $5 for those 18 years and older, $2 for those 3 to 17 years old and free for those 2 years and younger from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The admission cost from 4 to 10 p.m. is $10 for all ages.

The goal is to raise funds for the Dundee Foundation, which promotes events in both East and West Dundee, as well as surrounding towns, such as Gilberts and Sleepy Hollow. With West Dundee’s Heritage Fest in September and Dickens in Dundee in December, foundation members saw a gap in events drawing people to the area.

“We’ll see where it goes,” Surges said.

“Hopefully, this is the inaugural, and hopefully it becomes the main fundraising mechanism for the foundation.”

Stellar cast boosts stoner comedy ‘Night Before’

By SANDY COHEN The Associated Press Boosted by its cast and playful take on “A Christmas Carol,” “The Night Before” is a coming-of-age stoner-buddy comedy laced with warm holiday cheer.

Make no mistake: it’s still a silly romp thick with dope smoke and dumb jokes, but the performances are solid, and there’s some surprising sentiment behind the wacky antics.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogen and Anthony Mackie play best friends bidding farewell to a 10-year tradition of partying together on Christmas Eve. Ethan (GordonLevitt) is determined to make their last night epic, especially since Chris (Mackie) is on a hot streak in his football career and Isaac (Rogen) is expecting a baby.

Isaac’s wife, Betsy (the hilarious and soon-to-be everywhere Jillian Bell), gives her husband a special gift in honor of his last Christmas Eve with his pals: a box filled with “every single drug in the whole world.”

Well, you can imagine how things go from there. Isaac dips into the stash as soon as they leave the house. Rogen is predictably over the top as he samples each substance, falling deeper and deeper into a delusional haze. This presents ample opportunity for grossout moments, like when he barfs in church or lets his nose bleed into a woman’s martini.

Meanwhile, Ethan surprises his friends with tickets to the hottest party in town, the one they’ve dreamed of getting into since their holiday tradition began.

REECES 5 YEAR 2 MONTH OLD ORANGE TABBY DSH

“THE NIGHT BEFORE” STARRING: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogen, Jillian Bell, Anthony Mackie PLOT: On Christmas eve, three lifelong friends, two of whom are Jewish, spend the night in New York City looking for the Holy Grail of Christmas parties.

RATED: R for drug use and language throughout, some strong sexual content and graphic nudity RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 41 minutes But first, Chris needs to pick up some weed. (Somehow, Betsy left that out of the box.)

This sets the trio on their adventure, bringing them in contact with the mysterious Mr. Green (a brilliant Michael Shannon) for the first of several meetings. He introduces Chris to “the weed of Christmas present.” Later in the film, the weed of Christmas past and future is smoked. (Poor Dickens.)

Along the way, the guys meet up with Ethan’s ex-girlfriend (Lizzy Caplan) and her friend (Mindy Kaling), Chris’ mom (Lorraine Toussaint) and Rebecca Grinch (Ilana Glazer).

Each of these actresses’ appearances is a little holiday treat that helps balance the dumb-guy debauchery. Miley Cyrus, James Franco and Tracy Morgan also make welcome, well-played cameos.

Written and directed by Jonathan Levine (“50/50,” ‘’The Wackness”), “The Night Before” is a druggie comedy, but a sweetness about vulnerability, honesty, friends and family cuts through the haze.

Things may be tied up a little too neatly, but it is Christmas, after all.

He was rescued ed with ith 5 other he cats ffrom a fa farm iin 2013 2013. The guardian rdia be became unable bl to care fo for th them d due to his health. They were being kept in an open small shed with no shelter from the cold, filthy water and little to no food. The good Samaritan took them all to her barn and gave them warm beds, a heated water bowl and plenty of food. They could all come and go and accepted their new place.....except Reeces. He desperately wanted to be an indoor cat. He would come to the door and meow or sit looking in the window. She knew he would be much happier sitting on someone's lap inside their house. Reeces was great with her young son. He would rub up against him affectionately, and purr like crazy. He wanted to be petted all the time and he would let her pick him up. Now that he is at the shelter he has adjusted to all the cats and has the same behavior as she described. He is a healthy, active and loving orange marmalade. He has a quiet, calm demeanor as well. Most ginger toms are "curious", happy, friendly and outgoing cats. Reeces seems to fit that description. Please come meet him at Helping Paws located at 2500 Harding Lane, Woodstock, Illinois.

OPENING FRIDAY

NIGHTLIFE

Jennifer Lawrence stars as Katniss Everdeen in “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2.”

GAME OVER IN DREARY ‘MOCKINGJAY’

MORE ONLINE The new movie “Secret in Their Eyes” also is scheduled for release Friday. Find more reviews online at NWHerald.com.

By JAKE COYLE The Associated Press

“The Hunger Games” movies have unfolded in a relative blitzkrieg – four movies in four years – and in a fanfueled fever that has masked some seriously silly political allegory with the thrill of survival games and the awesome star power of Jennifer Lawrence.

In the final installation, “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2,” the game is over.

Having left behind the “arena”– a wooded realm where teenagers from across the districts of the totalitarian Panem are set against each other in a televised kill-or-be-killed death match – at the conclusion of 2013’s “Catching Fire,” “Mockingjay” moves into a greater war, where Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence), the reluctant participant plucked out of the mining region of District 12, discovers a wider network of like-minded rebels.

In part two, the march toward the Capitol takes on an air of inevitable victory as the revolution, led by President Alma Coin (Julianne Moore), contemplates power after the expected fall of the dictator Coriolanus Snow (Donald Sutherland). Wary of replacing one corruption with another, an increasingly grave Katniss discovers the truth of that old maxim: revolution is easy; democracy is difficult; and stretching the thin conceits of “The Hunger Games” into four films is even harder.

The pop pleasures of the early installments (the best of which was “Catching Fire”) are gone in the gray-and-gloomy part two of “Mockingjay.” All the color

“THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY – PART 2” STARRING: Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth PLOT: As the war of Panem escalates to the destruction of other districts by the Capitol, Katniss Everdeen, the reluctant leader of the rebellion, must bring together an army against President Snow, while all she holds dear hangs in the balance.

RATED: PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action, and for some thematic material RUNNING TIME: 2 hours, 17 minutes and vibrancy of the series has been drained away; a sizable chunk of action takes place in the sewer as Katniss and a band of rebels, navigating various traps, stealthily storm toward Snow, with plans to assassinate him.

From the start, though, it’s clear “Mockingjay – Part 2” is neither intended for critics nor newcomers. It’s for the fans of Suzanne Collins’ books, to which the franchise slavishly has sworn its fidelity. “Mockingjay – Part 2,” directed

by Francis Lawrence (who has helmed all but the first film) and penned by Danny Strong, Peter Craig and Collins, picks up where the last film left off, with barely a glance backward.

That, perhaps, is as it should be. “The Hunger Games” is for its passionate fans and – certainly in its final films – not anyone else.

At the heart of the phenomenon is Collins’ clever rendering of passage into adulthood as survival through the (literal) slings and arrows of a cruel system

that pits teenagers against one another in a competition that, for some, is barely more cutthroat than high school.

Katniss’ ascent comes not through her mastery of the game, but her rejection of its rules.

That’s been somewhat true of the films, too, which have put a strong female protagonist at the heart of the franchise and surrounded her with only a limp love triangle (between Liam Hemsworth’s Gale and Josh Hutcherson’s Peeta, who was brainwashed in the last film) that’s always been secondary to Katniss’ plight.

Katniss does, though, have a curious habit of blacking out at key moments of battle. And in “Mockingjay – Part 2,” she’s still fighting against being used as a public-relations pawn for the rebellion, just as she was for Snow’s regime. Unfortunately lacking much screen time are two of the most lively and gaudy characters of the films – Stanley Tucci’s master of ceremonies and Elizabeth Banks’ chaperone – who always gave things a kick.

Instead, the film is, well, dull. If Donald Sutherland is the most bubbly thing in your teenage sci-fi dystopia (and he is, by a mile), you may have stretched the seriousness too far.

Instead, a feeling of time passing “The Hunger Games” by pervades.

What should have been one movie was stretched into two. Philip Seymour Hoffman, who died nearly two years ago but remains here as the rebel leader Plutarch, is a ghostly, abbreviated presence.

And Lawrence, still the magnetic center of the saga, can elevate the material only so much. Four years clearly wasn’t fast enough for “The Hunger Games.”

Stay safe with supplemental heating When the weather begins to grow cold, individuals turn to supplemental forms of heat for a variety of reasons. The rising cost of home ownership as well as escalating fuel prices often set people on a search for the least expensive and most efficient ways to keep comfortable during the cold weather season.

Space heaters, wood-burning stoves and fireplaces are among the more common and popular supplemental heating sources.

The same heating sources that can be cost-effective and safe when used correctly can become hazardous when safety guidelines are not followed. The National Fire Prevention Association states that in 2010 heating equipment was involved in an estimated 57,100 reported home structure fires in the United States alone, resulting in 490 deaths, 1,540 injuries and $1.1 billion in direct property damage. These fires accounted for 16 percent of all reported home fires.

age or loss of life, homeowners should follow the safety guidelines that come with a supplemental heating device.

Also, simple steps can prevent fire and injury. * Test smoke alarms monthly to ensure they are in proper working order.

Should a malfunction of a heating appliance occur or a fire start, a smoke alarm could be your first indicator of a problem. * Keep anything that can burn at least 3 feet away from any heating equipment, including a furnace, a wood stove, portable space heaters, or a fireplace. * Consider the use of a gate or another obstruction to keep children and pets several feet away from a space heater or another appliance that can easily be knocked over. * Never use fuel-burning appliances without proper room venting to the outdoors to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Fuel includes everything from wood to gas to oil. * Only use the fuel recommended by the product manufacturer. * When making a fire in a stove or fireplace, never use flammable liquids to start or accelerate the fire. * A wood-, pellet- or coal-burning stove should be burned very hot at least twice a day for about 30 minutes to reduce the creosote buildup in the chimney or flue. * Chimneys should be professionally cleaned at the beginning of each use season to ensure there is nothing lodged within that can catch fire. * Do not use an oven to heat the home while it is in the “on”#position. You can leave the oven door open after cooking is finished so that residual heat can enter the kitchen, provided pets and children are kept away. * Electric space heaters should be kept away from walls, curtains and furniture. Many now feature tip-over safety features that will turn the unit off should it be tipped over. However, it is always adviseable to use a space heater on a level, sturdy surface that is away from foot traffic in the room. * All supplemental heating sources should be turned off or extinguished before leaving the house or going to bed. * Carbon monoxide detectors should be installed in every level of the home.

Install the detectors close to all bed-

rooms. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that cannot be detected easily. It quickly robs the body of oxygen and can be fatal when present in high amounts. * Any stationery space heating equipment or HVAC system should be installed by professionals and inspected so that it adheres with local building codes. This is to ensure your safety as a homeowner. * Use safety screens in front of fireplaces to prevent sparks from escaping. * Make sure the damper is open every time you light a fire. * Do not move a heater while it is hot or fill it with fuel at this time, except when adding wood to a stove. * Cinders and ashes should be cleaned routinely from stoves and fireplaces and stored away from the home in a heatsafe container until cool. * Never position an electric heater next to a water source. * Extension cords should not be used

unless absolutely necessary. The cords should be heavy duty and meet the draw of the heating unit. Also, they should be run so they don’t present a tripping hazard, but also so the cords themselves do not create a combustion hazard. * Children should not be allowed to touch or play near any heating appliances. Do not leave children or pets unattended in a room with a fire or space heater going.

Before investing in a heating unit, homeowners should consider adding more insulation to homes or caulking drafty windows and doors as a method to warming a home.

Whether out of necessity or just to provide an added measure of warmth to a home, many people use supplemental heating appliances frequently during the winter. Emphasizing safety when using such devices can prevent many of the fire hazards associated with these devices.

HOMElife

Conquering the clutter: Cleanliness with kids is not impossible Famed comedienne Phyllis Diller once said, “Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing is like shoveling the sidewalk before it stops snowing.”

Many parents realize that having children means their homes will be filled with a vast assortment of toys, clothing and other items that seemingly spend more time scattered across the family room floor than in children’s bedrooms.

Homes where young children lay their heads at night may not be as tidy as the photos lining home decorating magazine spreads. But while lived-in family homes may never be spotless, they do not have to be overrun with clutter, either. It’s possible to find a happy balance with the right strategy and by investing in a few organizational products.

the mess behind in the living room. When organizing a home, stay in a particular room until that room is clean. Have designated bins or bags for items that need to be carried into another room, but only transfer such containers after a room has been cleaned.

• Work one room at a time. Cleaning up cluttered homes can seem like a monumental effort when looking at clutter as a whole. But parents can do themselves a favor by choosing a starting point and tackling the project one room at a time.

Find the room that needs the most work or a space where clutter causes the biggest headaches. Once you clean such rooms, you may discover extra motivation to move on to the others.

• Invest in storage cubes and bins. Toys that are easily accessible and seen are easier to find and put away. Develop a storage system that works for your family. Labeling bins with words (or pictures for children who can’t yet read) helps children identify where things belong.

Find a system that will have long-term functionality and grow with the family.

Many stores sell storage bookcases that blend with home décor.

• Resist the urge to wander. One of the obstacles many people face when attempting to declutter a home is the tendency to remove an item from one room only to add it to the existing clutter in another room. For example, if a child’s toy is in the living room, you may walk that toy up to the bedroom and get involved in tidying up the bedroom, leaving

• Tame the toys. Making too many items available at any given time can become overwhelming to children. Rotate toys rather than always buying new ones so that items will be fresh and interesting.

Toys out of the rotation can be stored in a basement or attic. Belongings that are not requested or missed can be given away. Another idea is to create wishlists

Every autumn, trees and shrubs take on their brilliant display of reds, oranges, purples, and yellows that mark the end of the growing season. Fall foliage may make for ideal photo backdrops and scenic days in the countryside, but closer to home leaves may be more of a hindrance than an aesthetic pleasure.

The hundreds of leaves that adorn the maples, oaks and other trees near homes will eventually fall as autumn turns into winter. Some will float down to lawns, while others will get lodged in gutters and downspouts, posing problems that can cause substantial and potentially costly problems for homeowners.

Homeowners know that gutter cleaning is an important part of fall home maintenance, but they may not completely understand why. Gutter cleaning can be a messy and time-consuming project, making it a project many homeowners are apt to put off. Waiting to clean gutters can lead to considerable problems, so it’s best to tackle the job well in advance of the winter.

Gutters guide rainwater and runoff from the roof so it drains properly away from homes. When gutters are clogged with leaves, a number of problems can occur.

It may work itself right into the walls and ceilings of the home. In addition to damaging walls and ceilings, moisture inside the home can promote mold growth. It also makes interior spaces more appealing to pests.

• Leaks: Water will take the path of least resistance. When clogged gutters do not allow the water to drain away properly, water will find other ways to the ground.

• Foundation trouble: Clogged gutters also may contribute to flooded basements and cracked foundations. Leaking water will pool around the foundation, ex-

• Cull twice a year. Children accumulate the greatest number of new toys on birthdays and holidays. Set a schedule to go through existing toys prior to these events and sort out the broken, old or seldom-used items. Donate these toys to preschools, afterschool programs, family support centers, or babysitting centers at your office or gym. Whatever can’t be salvaged should be put into the trash or recycling bins.

• Get items off of the floor. Any organizational system that can move items vertically is beneficial. Children will become accustomed to hanging things up rather than leaving belongings on the floor.

Hooks, hangers and shelving mounted on walls, will free up precious floor space.

• Establish a school memory box.

Parents can give each of their children a plastic bin where they can store memorable items from school. Not every assignment or drawing sent home needs to be kept. Reserve the memory box for those special things that have the most meaning.

Kids and clutter often go hand in hand.

However, there are ways to keep the mess under control.

• Choose furniture that serves double duty. Beds with drawers underneath or a toy chest that doubles as a bench can work well in spaces that need some clutter control.

The importance of clean gutters

• Excess weight: Gutters are meant to hold the weight of traveling water and not much more. Gutters filled with leaves and other debris can quickly become heavy. This stresses the entire gutter system and can cause the gutters to fall off of the home entirely.

• Nesting areas: Clogged gutters can serve as nesting areas for insects and birds. Mosquitoes and other insects lay eggs in pooling water. Gutters can quickly become breeding spots for harmful pests.

Furthermore, birds may nest in gutters, creating unsightly messes and more damage. Seeds that sprout in clogged gutters can grow unchecked.

• Ice-damming: Left untreated, pooled water and leaves in gutters can freeze over. Blocked water can back up and push against the roof, lifting shingles and destroying the roof in the process.

Durben, playing in her second varsity game, led the Golden Eagles with six points on a pair of 3-pointers.

THE NUMBER

Rebounding advantage for Jacobs

AND ANOTHER THING ...

Senior guard Talia Surges on Jacobs’ defense: “You’ve got to keep that energy up on defense. You always want to try to hold them to as little points as we can, and I thought we did that pretty well.”

CARPENTERSVILLE – Jacobs came up with enough defensive stops against Palatine in the opening game of the Dundee-Crown Thanksgiving Tournament on Wednesday to put itself in position for a second-half run.

It’s what didn’t happen for the undermanned Golden Eagles on the other end of the court that spelled trouble in a 34-21 loss to the Mid-Suburban League Pirates.

BRONCOS AT BEARS, NOON SUNDAY, CBS, AM-780, 105.9-FM

But for now, Arrieta and the flavor-of-the-year Cubs will settle for winning even more in November than they did in October during a deep playoff run – Arrieta becoming the third Cub in as many days to take home a major postseason award.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The preseason workouts already had begun when Zoe Lindsey came to McHenry County College volleyball coach Kyle McCall, looking for a place to play.

Lindsey had committed to the University of New Orleans, but after a few weeks she wasn’t enjoying it.

“I kind of wanted a stronger academic school,” Lindsey said.

“I decided I would come here and later transfer to another school.”

Adding a Division I-caliber player seemed like a no-brainer.

The problem was t h a t t h e S c o t s Next already recruited two setters. NJCAA Division McCall agreed II national he would allow tournament: Lindsey to join MCC vs. Cowley the team, but she County CC w o u l d h a v e t o (Kansas), 1 p.m. compete for the Thursday starting position.

“I had some confidence coming from a Division I program,” Lindsey said.

“That was kind of on my side. But at the same time, they had already pictured who their starting setter would be from the beginning.”

In the ensuing weeks, Lindsey won the starting job. The McHenry grad learned to mesh with the five returning players from last season, as well as the newcomers.

The late addition of Lindsey provided an extra boost to the Scots. Her ability to spread the ball to the Scots’ hitters is one of the many reasons they have qualified for the NJCAA Division II national tournament in Phoenix.

The No. 9-ranked Scots (38-7) will play No. 8 Cowley (Kansas) at 1 p.m. Thursday in the opening round. With a win, they will advance to play top-ranked Parkland (53-0) on Friday.

If Zack Greinke can’t beat Jake Arrieta, maybe he’d like to join him?

Arrieta, the Cubs’ ace, was asked by a Los Angeles writer soon after he beat the Dodgers’ Greinke for the National League Cy Young Award if he wanted to see the free-agent Greinke join the Cubs and if Arrieta would help recruit him.

“I would assume that phone call might be made, at least,” Arrieta said. “Yeah, we’d love to have him.”

Honoring veterans, enhancing team unity

PRAIRIE RIDGE FOOTBALL

At the beginning of the season – before the Prairie Ridge football team won the Fox Valley Conference Fox Division and before the Wolves advanced to the Class 6A state semifinals – they sat in a classroom after a long two-a-day practice. Defensive backs coach John Caldarella gave each player a used bullet casing and a sharpie.

They all wrote an individual goal on their empty shell. Then, they slipped them into an empty tank shell that Caldarella got from his son in the Marines.

“The idea was each person has an individual goal that they can do this year to help us our reach big goal,” Caldarella said. “Which is sacrificing for one another, honoring our veterans and winning football games.”

The Wolves (12-1) welded a top on the tank shell. Before every game, each player touches it and then a captain carries it onto the field as a symbol of what the team is trying to accomplish.

The shell was on the sideline for the first game against CaryGrove. It will be there again Saturday when the Wolves travel to play Montini in a Class 6A state semifinal game.

The tank shell serves not only as the team’s symbol but also as a way to honor the military, something the Prairie Ridge football team had done for years. More than two dozen Wolves football players who graduated in the past 15 years have gone on to serve in various branches of the military.

“We love the way they do things,” senior defensive back Nick Greenberg said. “Their dedication, their hard work, their camaraderie. The way they work as a team.”

This season, the Wolves have worn patches on their uniforms to honor veterans, hosted a veterans night at the school, collected items for care packages, sold T-shirts and donated money to veterans’ organizations.

“We look at our veterans and our military as some great role models with courage, honor, self-discipline, self-sacrifice,” said Caldarella, who served in the Army. “We try to emulate those goals for these kids, not only when they’re in high school but when they grow up and they’re husbands and members of society.

They can bring some of that with them.”

Last season, the Wolves imparted these lessons on their players in another way. Each player received a dog tag at the beginning

Young Award, the Baseball Writers’ Association of America announced Wednesday.

Cutler, not Manning, is the real newsmaker No matter where you turn these days, it seems the narrative surrounding the Bears meeting with the Denver Broncos at Soldier Field this Sunday starts and ends with Peyton Manning and Brock Osweiler.

I get it. Manning, possibly the greatest quarterback of all time is being forced to the sideline against his will, and the unknown Osweiler will get his first NFL start over the once-thought-to-be immortal one.

But the truth is neither of them will have anywhere near the impact on the outcome of the game that Bears quarterback and former Bronco Jay Cutler will.

Manning belongs on the bench right now, but this is not the end.

Whether it’s one week or three or

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush four, he will heal up his feet, his ribs and whatever else has been bothering his once infinite but now rapidly decaying football skills and his final and far more memorable chapter will be written some time later in the season.

As for Osweiler, I have neither the time nor the inclination to research how many young men actually have made their first starts as NFL quarterbacks – it must be in the thousands, isn’t it? – but Osweiler is only one more.

Huntley doubles One more win wins up on South Elgin the West

By JESSE SEVERSON jseverson@shawmedia.com DeKALB – The hope for Detroit is alive and well for the Northern Illinois football team.

Sophomore running back Jordan Huff had a career night and the NIU defense came up with two critical stops late for a 27-19 win over Western Michigan on a windy Wednesday night at Huskie Stadium.

“I feel like we came together as a team when it was time to step up,” said senior linebacker Boomer Mays, who had a teamhigh 15 tackles.

With the win, the Huskies (8-3 overall, 6-1 Mid-American Conference West) control their own destiny for a trip to the MAC Championship game Dec. 4 in Detroit. NIU closes out its regular season against Ohio at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at Huskie Stadium.

“In my five years here, it’s always a senior-led team and it always will be,” NIU coach Rod Carey said. “Now you have a game to win the West. Before that, it was one week at a time.

Now you have a game to win the West.”

The Huskies, who have won the MAC West five straight years, have beaten Western Michigan (6-5, 5-2 MAC West) in seven consecutive seasons.

“There are no moral victories for our program,” Western Michigan coach PJ Fleck said.

Pinned down on their 3-yard line with a one-point lead early in the fourth quarter, the Huskies went 97 yards in three plays – capped by a 53-yard touchdown pass from redshirt freshman Ryan Graham to Kenny Golladay to put them ahead 27-19.

Western Michigan had the ball first-and-goal from the Huskies’ 4 in the closing minutes, but the NIU defense came up with four consecutive stops with 2:41 remaining in the game. In their final drive of the game, the Broncos started on the NIU 44, but eventually turned the ball over on downs.

“When the plays present themselves, I have faith in all these guys that they’ll make them,” Carey said.

Playing in his first home start, Graham finished 11 for 23 with 158 yards and two touchdowns. He found Golladay four times for 93 yards. Graham had an interception on a deep pass to Golladay in the closing seconds of the first half. Both of Graham’s touchdowns came throwing into the wind.

“The wind was going crazy tonight,” Graham said. “Throwing with it, the ball just took off on me. Throwing into it, I had a little more control.”

Huff, who had a 44-yard run on that three-play, 97yard drive, finished with a career-high 159 yards on eight carries and added an 87-yard TD of his own in the first half.

Joel Bouagnon added 70 rushing yards on 21 carries, along with his 18th rushing touchdown of the season. “[Bouagnon] is more of the thumper,” Fleck said. “[Huff] is explosive. If you let him outside in the gap, he’s gone.”

Western Michigan junior QB Zach Terrell went 20 for 36 with 316 yards, two TDs and an interception to Albert Smalls in the third quarter.

Nicole Durben stepped up in the absence of Sidor, leading the Golden Eagles off the bench with six points on two 3-pointers, both from the corner.

Her first 3 in the final seconds of the first quarter cut Palatine’s lead to 10-9, and her second 3 brought Jacobs within one point, 15-14, with 3:40 left in the first half.

“I was kind of nervous, but once I made those 3s, I was like, ‘I got this,’ ” said Durben, who was 2 of 3 from long range.

Jacobs led twice, each time by one point. The Eagles grabbed their second lead of the game on a cutting drive and layup from Surges, who was fouled on the play and gave the Eagles the lead to start the second.

It’s the 13th time a team as won 3 of 4 individual awards • CUBS

Continued from page B1 It’s the 13th time in history one team has won three of the four annual Baseball Writers Association of America Awards, first since the 2001 Seattle Mariners. It’s only the ninth time the awards went to three different individuals on the same team.

No team has swept all four (the Cubs don’t have a finalist for Thursday’s MVP).

“To be part of that with those guys and to do what we did as an organization this year is really, incredibly special,” he said, “and something we look to build on.”

That’s why Arrieta (22-6,

1.77 ERA) sounded so eager to talk about the future of this young Cubs team after a season in which he led the majors in wins, finished second to Greinke (1.66) in ERA, led the majors in complete games (four) and shutouts (three) and threw a no-hitter.

“To have the pieces that we have aligned for next season and a number of years to come, it looks like we’re going to have a pretty bright future,” said Arrieta, who set major league records for ERA after the All-Star game (0.75 in 16 starts) and ERA in the final 20 starts of a season (0.86).

The bigger issue – at least as big as Greinke’s flirtation with the Cubs – might be how much of that future will in-

clude Arrieta, who’s under club control through arbitration for two more seasons.

Arrieta, whose career took a dramatic upward turn since his 2013 trade to the Cubs, called extension talks “inevitable,” but made no predictions on how they would turn out.

“I don’t think there’s a tremendous amount of angst on my part to get something done immediately, but that doesn’t mean that something can’t happen,” said Arrieta, 29, who reached 200 innings for the first time in his career.

“My focus right now is, obviously, that I know I’m still with the Chicago Cubs, and I couldn’t be (more) excited and happy for the opportuni-

ty we’re going to have for this team.”

The Cubs met with Arrieta’s agent, Scott Boras, during the GM meetings on more than one topic. But a multiyear extension is no better than an extreme long shot at this point.

The Cubs are trying to use what resources they have this winter to add pieces for an extended competitive run, and Boras already has compared Arrieta’s career arc to Max Scherzer, the 2013 Cy Young winner who got a $210 million deal from the Nationals as a free agent last winter.

“If nothing does transpire, then we proceed to spring training, and I’m still a Cub,” Arrieta said.

Bert Olmstead, the Hall of Fame left winger who played on five Stanley Cup championships teams during his 14-year NHL career, has died. He was 89.

Olmstead had 181 goals and 421 assists in 848 regular-season games for the Hawks.

Lindsey fits in well • MCC

Continued from page B1 “It was nice when she just sort of showed up and had been used to playing at an elite level,” McCall said.

“She just fit in really well with the other girls that we had. It was just another great piece to the puzzle.”

This year marks the Scots’ first appearance in the national tournament since 2009 and the first for coach McCall and his staff. When he took over the program three seasons ago, he joked that he walked the halls looking for “tall girls who might know what a volleyball is.”

The Scots won only six matches all season in 2013.

But with a fresh lineup, he quickly has turned MCC into top 10 team.

“When we first came together three years ago, our aspirations were to make MCC into a nationally known program,” he said. “We didn’t know how long it was going to take. We’re happy and surprised at the same time that it happened so fast.”

As the Scots prepared for nationals last week, Lindsey was asked at practice if she ever reflects on the decision to join MCC. “I think I made the right decision coming here,” Lindsey said. “I still catch up with the girls in New Orleans and see how their team is doing. But compared to how we’re doing here, I’m in a much better position.”

BEARS NOTES

Porter preps for another matchup with Thomas

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com LAKE FOREST – Another week of familiarity for the Bears’ coaching staff with an AFC West opponent means the same for Tracy Porter, who played for the Denver Broncos in 2012 and then the Raiders in 2013.

Although Porter admitted he doesn’t have nearly the intimate knowledge about Denver as Bears coach John Fox, offensive coordinator Adam Gase and other staff members who came to the Bears from Denver, he does know the Broncos’ top receiver pretty well – Demaryius Thomas.

“I remember every time I covered him,” Porter said after Wednesday’s practice. “He’s been the same guy from when I was there to the time I left. Talented guy. Runs good routes, can get open, strong guy. He’s a very talented player.”

After covering Thomas in practice in ’12, Porter covered him in two Raiders-Broncos games in 2013. He explained the keys to keeping Thomas – who has only one touchdown this season – in check.

“Stay tight in your coverage and make it as difficult on him and the quarterback as possible,” he said.

Tracy Porter

Demaryius Thomas

“There’s no magic potion you can put on to say, ‘This is what I’m going to do to stop him,’ you just have to be tight in coverage on him.”

McClellin gives ‘D’ a boost: Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio heaped praise on Shea McClellin, who led the team in tackles and forced a turnover in Sunday’s 37-13 win over the St. Louis Rams, for his play as well as his recovery time.

“Shea’s a stud,” Fangio said.

“That was a four- to six-week injury and he came back right on the four-week mark. A lot of guys are at the six- or seven-week mark and he came right back as early as he could and he went out there and played good and made his presence felt early with a big strip fumble.”

Just another game: In the public eye, Fox is doing his best to make it clear this game is no different.

“Yeah, it was a good run. I was there four years. I thank Mr. (Pat)

Bowlen for the opportunity,” he said about Denver and it’s majority owner. “Now, my life’s changed and I’m here. It’s a big game for both teams, I’m sure. I know it is for us and like all games we’re looking forward to it.”

Porter said if Fox felt any differently about the matchup, he’s not letting the players know.

“He wants every one. There are certain games on schedules that as a human being you look a little bit more into. Maybe he is, maybe he isn’t, but he hasn’t shown it to us in practice.”

Injury report: LB Pernell McPhee (knee) and WR Eddie Royal (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

McPhee did not practice all last week before missing Sunday’s game. Royal has missed the past two weeks of practice.

The Bears listed WR Alshon Jeffery as limited with groin and shoulder injuries. Jeffery played 35 of the team’s 65 offensive snaps in Sunday’s win. RB Matt Forte (knee), C Hroniss Grasu (neck), LB Shea McClellin (knee) and S Antrel Rolle (ankle) also were limited.

DE DeMarcus Ware – who leads the Broncos with 6.5 sacks – did not practice, and Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said they do not expect him to play Sunday.

FIVE-DAY PLANNER THURSDAY

• ARKUSH

Continued from page B1 If the Broncos are going to win Sunday, it’s going to be because of their defense and running game, and there’s no way Osweiler can be any worse than Manning was Sunday. He probably can’t be any worse than Manning has been most of this season.

For the Bears, however, as he has been in each of their four wins and surprisingly competitive losses to Minnesota and Detroit, Cutler does have to be the Bears’ leading man again.

Each week since their 0-3 start, these Bears have intrigued us with something new. This week, it will be how they fare against the NFL’s best defense.

The only comp we have at the moment is the Seattle game in which Cutler was unable to go and the Bears were trashed, 26-0.

We keep holding our breath, waiting to see if bad Jay still is lurking somewhere, but Cutler has passed every test.

This will be a horse of a different color.

The Broncos lead the league in quarterback sack percentage, have 32 QB sacks, are 11th in interception percentage and have picked off nine passes, two in a game four times.

The matchups are even scarier. I asked Broncos coach Gary Kubiak if his best pass rusher, DeMarcus Ware, would be available and he said, “I don’t think DeMarcus is going to make it.”

Good news if you’re a Bears fan, but it still leaves the Broncos with four other players with three or more sacks, including Von Miller with five, and Antonio Smith has 2½ and rookie Shane Ray has two.

The Bears’ pass protection isn’t perfect, so how Cutler reacts to the pressure will be key.

Denver also boasts three standout cornerbacks, Pro Bowlers Aqib Talib and Chris Harris Jr. and Bradley Roby.

How Cutler takes care of the football will be the difference in the outcome of the game.

Here’s the good news: Through nine weeks, Cutler has thrown only five picks.

The longest he’s lasted in nine

previous NFL seasons without throwing at least five picks is six games, which he’s done twice.

In five of his nine seasons, he’s thrown five or more picks by Week 4.

Cutler has thrown 2.6 touchdowns for every interception he’s thrown this season. His career average is 1.5.

His career interception percentage is 3.3, but this year it’s 1.8.

The fact is, although the Bears are the flavor of the week in many NFL circles, being talked about as one of the hotter 4-5 teams still in playoff contention, they have yet to beat a team with a winning record.

If Cutler takes care of the football against the Broncos’ pressure, that’s another hurdle the Bears can clear this week. If they do, it will be impossible not to include them in the wild-card conversation down the stretch.

All eyes should be on No. 6 in navy and orange.

Feelings hurt in high school Reason we sleep may be to linger long after graduation flush brain of waste material Dear Abby: I loved the letter from “Ready For The Reunion” (July 31), who wondered why some people in her high school graduating class didn’t respond to the notice of the reunion. Some of us would like to completely forget high school and everything associated with it.

I missed my 10th, 20th, 30th and 40th year reunions. I did consider going to the last one, but then I started reading my former classmates’ posts on the reunion website. It seems everyone is retired, wealthy, has numerous grandchildren, at least one retirement home in an exotic locale and spends their time relaxing and jetting around (or so they say). I’m still working, not wealthy, not particularly successful and have moved from my home state to the backwoods of middle America. Basically, I have a boring life, so I have nothing to brag about. I didn't go.

I’m still in contact with the important people in my life from high school and just don’t need the aggravation of attending a reunion. – Stay-

ing Home Dear Staying: Thank you for your input. I received a large number of responses to that letter, many of which were emotionally charged: Dear Abby: My class just had its 45th reunion. I live 20

miles away, but have never attended one and I never will.

My best friend and I were bullied, insulted and excluded by our high school peers. After 45 years, we are still close friends. Neither of us has any desire to see any of those people ever again.

High school was a miserable experience for us, and we couldn’t wait to graduate and go off to college. Why would we want to socialize with them now? We forgave them long ago, but have no desire to relive those days. People need to realize sometimes we move on and don’t need to revisit the past. – Carol In

experience was traumatic to the point it put me in therapy.

People who look forward to these things look back on their high school days with fondness. I’m guessing that’s because they weren’t picked on for being fat, not coming from a rich family or being a minority.

I would rather walk barefoot across broken glass than spend another minute with my high school classmates.

many of the graduates never received the invitation. Email contact information, phone numbers and addresses change often. I didn’t receive anything about my 10-year reunion, but a few of my friends said they did. I can’t respond to an invitation I didn’t receive. – Rod In Omaha

Dear Dr. K: A friend told me the reason we sleep is to “flush out” our brain. What is this all about? Is this the reason we sleep?

Dear Reader: Many readers have written asking why we sleep, and we discussed it in yesterday’s column. Today we will talk about the recent study you are asking about, which suggests one reason we sleep may be to flush out the brain.

For those who didn’t read yesterday’s column, a quick summary. There is evidence during sleep our mind and body benefit in several ways. Perhaps most obvious is our muscles get a rest. The fortunate exception is the special muscle that is our heart. We don’t want it to quit pumping – ever.

Do our other organs need a rest? Most of them keep working while we sleep.

But they all sustain some wear and tear from their work, during both the day and night. Therefore, they may need to repair certain injuries that have occurred during the day. During deepest sleep, hormones are released that stimulate tissue growth and muscle repair. And your immune system becomes primed to

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff defend itself against infection the next day.

Does our brain need the rest? Brain waves are very active during sleep, but our brain is doing different things during sleep than when awake. For example, it dreams. Which raises the question of why we dream. Sigmund Freud thought dreaming was our way of dealing with hidden conflicts, desires and fears.

He thought we needed to sleep because we needed to dream.

In the past 10 years, scientists here at Harvard Medical School and elsewhere have published a great deal of evidence that dreaming (and, hence, sleeping) is important in memory and learning.

Now to your question. A truly remarkable study was published two years ago. To explain what was found, I first need to explain some concepts. Our brains are filled with billions of different kinds of cells. Between those cells is space through which fluid passes. It’s as if there are little rivers run-

ning through the brain.

The study was of mice, whose brains are not terribly different from ours in many respects. (Granted, their brains couldn't come up with the theory of general relativity. But their brains are much better than ours at smelling cheese.)

The study found during sleep, the little rivers that run between brain cells increase greatly in size. As a result, many substances made by brain cells (including cell waste material) get flushed out of the brain much more efficiently.

For example, two molecules called beta-amyloid and tau are flushed out of the mouse brain more efficiently during sleep. These two molecules build up in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease.

So maybe your friend is right. One important purpose of sleep might be to clear potentially toxic material out of the brain. And perhaps we feel restored in the morning for that reason. It is an arresting, and plausible, possibility.

Teen should share decision to change religions with parents Dr. Wallace: I’m 18 and a freshman at Utah State University. I have been raised in the Catholic faith.

In fact, my mom’s brother is a priest.

This past summer, a friend introduced me to the Mormon (Latter Day Saints) religion. I attended a few services and have decided to become a member. I like the fact Mormons are familyoriented and forbid smoking and drinking. These are things I always have believed in and practiced.

In two months, I will be a member of my new church.

I know my parents will not be happy when they find out

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Dr. Robert Wallace I’ve turned my back on the religion of my birth, but I’m 18 and need to live my life the way I want to.

Should I tell my parents now about my newfound religion or wait until I know more about LDS beliefs so I can better give them all the reasons for leaving my old church? – Nameless, St.

George, Utah Nameless: Changing your religious faith is a huge

decision. You are old enough to decide on your religious preference, but you owe it to your parents to discuss it with them before you make the final decision. Tell them immediately.

I’m positive the leaders of the LDS church would want you to inform your family before making your commitment to become a Mormon. It might be wise to have a member of the LDS church with you when you talk to your parents. That way many of their questions could be answered.

Dr. Wallace: You said teens should set goals and work diligently to reach them.

Did you set goals before you attended college? And if so, did you reach them?

Also, if you were not a columnist for teens, what would you like to be doing to earn a living? – Carley, Rock

Island Carley: My prime goal

when entering Knox College was to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in four years. I reached that goal. My next goal was to teach and be a varsity basketball coach at the high school level. Earning a master’s degree in education at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb helped me reach goal number two.

My educational experiences

gave me the background to reach goal number three – to write a syndicated column for teens.

I thoroughly enjoyed my years as teacher and coach, and feel fortunate and privileged to be able to write a syndicated column for teens. I don’t plan to change careers, but still, since you ask, there are some options that would be fun to explore.

For instance, I’d consider giving up this column to become manager of the Chicago Cubs or, perhaps, conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra. And I wouldn’t mind starring in a movie with Robert De

Niro and Julia Roberts.

Being president of Harvard University doesn’t sound too bad, either.

But my chances of being a major league manager, an orchestra conductor, a screen actor or the president of Harvard are fantasies.

Teens must set goals that might be attained within the limits of their talents. I’m also aware one person’s fantasy could well be another’s talent. If teens think they can accomplish their goals, then they should go for them 100 percent.

BECKHAM IS PEOPLE’S SEXIEST MAN ALIVE

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Thursday, November 19, 2015 • Section B • Page 8

LOS ANGELES– British soccer star David Beckham has been an international sex symbol for nearly two decades, but he said he’s still flattered to be named People magazine’s 30th-anniversary Sexiest Man Alive.

“It’s a huge honor,” the 40-year-old Beckham told the magazine, which announced its choice on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on Tuesday night. “I’m very pleased to accept,” he said.

And his famous fashion designer wife, Victoria Beckham, approves, too, Beckham said.

At last! Sheldon, Amy take big step on ‘Big Bang Theory’

Joshua Homme of Queens of the Stone Age performs Jan. 26, 2014, at the 56th annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. Homme was scheduled to perform Friday with his band Eagles of Death Metal at the Bataclan venue in Paris, where patrons were taken hostage.

Eagles of Death Metal is safe, ‘horrified’ by Paris attacks NEW YORK – Members of the Eagles of Death Metal band said they’re home safe after the Paris attacks and “are horrified and still trying to come to terms with what happened in France.”

The U.S. band was performing at the Bataclan when the deadly attacks occurred. Last Friday’s night of terror in Paris killed 129 people and wounded over 350 others.

“Our thoughts and hearts are first and foremost with our brother Nick Alexander, our record company comrades Thomas Ayad, Marie Mosser, and Manu Perez, and all the friends and fans whose lives were taken in Paris, as well as their friends, families, and loved ones,” the band said in a statement released Wednesday.

Eagles of Death Metal released a new album, “Zipper Down,” last month.

They were on a European tour. The band said all shows are on hold until further notice.

“Although bonded in grief with the victims, the fans, the families, the citizens of Paris, and all those affected by terrorism, we are proud to stand together, with our new family, now united by a common goal of love and compassion,” the band said.

BURBANK, Calif. – Sheldon and Amy are taking their relationship into a bold new frontier on ‘The Big Bang Theory” next month.

The on-again, off-again couple will have sex for the first time in an episode taped Tuesday and set to air Dec. 17 on CBS. “After over five years of dating, we felt the time was right for Sheldon and Amy to finally consummate their relationship, and we’re so excited for the audience to see the journey over the next several episodes,” executive producer Steve Molaro said in a statement.

Jim Parsons stars as Sheldon Cooper and Mayim Bialik as Amy Farrah Fowler, scientists who are challenged by romance. “The Big Bang Theory,” in its ninth season, is TV’s top-rated sitcom.

Cate Blanchett honored at Museum of Modern Art

NEW YORK – Cate Blanchett, accepting an honor for her film work, made reference to the recent attacks in Paris and Beirut and said her own efforts “feel very insignificant” in view of what’s happening in the world.

Blanchett was honored Tuesday evening at the Museum of Modern Art’s eighth annual film benefit, which raises funds so that important cinematic works can join the museum’s collection.

“All my efforts do feel very insignificant in view of what’s going on in the world at the moment, the horrific events in Europe and the Middle East,” Blanchett said, “and the thousands of refugees who travel across the borders, and their plight, their peril has become even more precarious and difficult.

NEW YORK – Carly Simon says the second verse of her infamous song “You’re So Vain” is about Warren Beatty.

The 70-year-old singer told People magazine that she’s “confirmed that the second verse is Warren.” She added that Beatty “thinks the whole thing is about him!”

Simon will release the memoir, “Boys in the Trees,” on Nov. 24. The subjects behind “You’re So Vain,” released in 1972, have been a matter of speculation for years.

The singer said the No. 1 hit is about three men, including Beatty, though she isn’t naming the others.

Simon was married to James Taylor, and People says she has been linked to Mick Jagger, Kris Kristofferson, Jack Nicholson and Cat Stevens.

Enya returns with ethereal style she’s made her own

NEW YORK – The Irish singer Eithne Ni Bhraonain – known to the world as Enya – has essentially created her own style of music and sold some 80 million CDs in three decades. Yet when she leaves a hotel after talking about her first new work in seven years, chances are she will walk Manhattan streets unnoticed.

It’s an enviable place to be in a celebrity-soaked world.

“As a musician, I love the fact that the success was on the music,” she said. “I always say that fame and success are two very different things. ... I had a choice – and not a lot of people have this choice – of whether to seek fame with this music or whether to stay back behind the music and let the music speak for itself. And, really, that’s what I did.”

Enya’s music re-enters the spotlight on Friday, with the release of “Dark Sky Island.” It debuts the same day another one-named powerhouse comes out with her new album – Adele with her “25.”
