Hopefuls file for primary elections Monday marked first day By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The first minute of the first day candidates have to file to run for office in the March 15 primary was a busy one for the McHenry County Clerk’s Office. About two dozen Republican candidates, many of them newcomers, lined up at 8 a.m. sharp Monday morning to submit their petitions.

McHenry County Clerk Mary McClellan (right) and staff prepare to open the office for the candidate petition filing. About two dozen Republican candidates, many of them newcomers, lined up before 8 a.m. Monday to submit their petitions.

All six McHenry County Board GOP primaries, as well as the contested races for County Board chairman and county recorder, will require lotteries to determine ballot order, County Clerk Mary McClellan said. Incumbent Chairman Joe Gottemoller and challenging County Board member Michael Walkup, both Republicans from Crystal Lake, filed Monday morning. This election is the first in

which the voters will directly elect the chairman. Walkup also filed to run for his County Board seat representing District 3. If Walkup wins both elections, he intends to hold both seats so he can continue to vote on issues – state law forbids popularly elected chairmen in counties of McHenry County’s size from voting.

What it means: Candidates have until the end of the day Monday to file to run in the March 15 primary. On the Web: To see a complete list of candidates running in the 2016 primary elections, visit NWHerald.com.

O’Hare top offender in increased ground delays at U.S. airports By SCOTT MAYEROWITZ The Associated Press

AP file photo

Planes taxi on the runway Sept. 8, 2008, at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City.

NEW YORK – On a recent morning, Delta Air Lines Flight 435 pushed back early from the gate at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport. Passengers watched the safety video and settled in for a six-hour trip. Then they waited. And waited. Still within sight of the gate, their jet sat motionless because of airport congestion. It wasn’t until 30 minutes after passen-

gers buckled in that they were finally in the sky. It’s a scene playing out across the country. According to an Associated Press analysis, airplanes spent 23 minutes and 32 seconds, on average, taxiing between gates and runways during the first nine months of the year. That’s the longest it has been since the Bureau of Transportation Statistics started tracking taxi times in 1995 and a 50-second increase over last year’s average. For passengers, the rising delays add to the frustrations

of travel. A plane might land early but then sit waiting for a gate to open up. Flights still are arriving “on time” but only because airlines have increased scheduled flying times to account for the added taxi times. The Delta flight made it to the gate in San Francisco 10 minutes ahead of schedule despite the takeoff delays. The creep in taxi times is attributed to a series of changes: massive runway construction projects at some of the nation’s busiest airports; schedule changes that increase the num-

@NWHerald

Tension mounts between Senate, House Earlier this month, when the General Assembly was in Springfield, House Speaker Michael Madigan called Senate President John Cullerton six times to ask him to move the child care program restoration legislation once it passed the House. Yes, you read that right. Six times. The man is most definitely single-mindedly persistent. As you probably already know, the deal cut with Gov. Bruce Rauner’s office by state Sen. Toi Hutchinson, D-Olympia Fields, and others to mostly restore the draconian Child Care Assistance Program cuts Rauner made this past summer involved not voting on a bill that would’ve fully restored the governor’s cuts. Madigan wanted that bill to pass, however, and apparently believed through much of the day his chamber would pass it, even though it seemed obvious Rep. Ken Dunkin, D-Chicago, once again had jumped into the political bed with the GOP governor. Some House Republicans were talking about voting for the bill, however, and that kept Madigan’s hopes alive. Because he thought it still had a shot, Madigan would not relent on Cullerton. While the constant calls reportedly irritated Cullerton to no end, they didn’t work. Cullerton backed up his members’ deal, and the speaker was

LOTTERY

CAPITOL EFFECTS Rich Miller politely refused. Six times. The bill died in the House when all Republicans and Dunkin voted against the speaker. Madigan’s pressure on Cullerton was pretty darned ironic since Madigan is sitting on several Cullerton bills the speaker long has refused to move. Cullerton’s chamber twice has passed minimum wage increase bills that have gone nowhere in the House despite the fact Madigan pushed a referendum last year to raise the minimum wage. Cullerton also passed a property tax freeze bill that provides more money for Chicago Public Schools and kills off the state’s ancient school funding formula. That hasn’t moved in the House, either. Cullerton has sent four appropriations bills to the House, but instead of using one of those as a vehicle to fund municipalities, 911 call centers, lottery winners, etc., the speaker refused the governor’s requests for additional items and stuck everything he wanted on a House bill, which he then froze in place with a parliamentary hold after his chamber passed it with a huge bipartisan majority.

Madigan’s move not only upset local mayors, who really want their money, but also agitated senators in both political parties. Because Madigan put a hold on the bill, Cullerton couldn’t start the legally required process of “reading” the legislation for three days, which means he now has to bring members back for more than a single day if they return in December. OK, that doesn’t sound like much, and it may not be of concern even to people who do this for a living, but we’re in the holiday season, so getting legislators back to Springfield isn’t as easy as you’d think, not to mention if members have to return, they would rather not be in Springfield longer than a single day. Again, it’s not the worst problem in the world, but it has aggravated the rank and file to no end. One of the biggest reasons why Madigan was angry with Cullerton for allowing the child care funding deal to happen is that Madigan just doesn’t trust the governor to keep his word. Madigan didn’t believe Rauner would keep his promise to fund the child care program and will instead use the program – which helps move tens of thousands of parents off welfare and into work and college – as a hostage for whatever else Rauner wants sometime

down the line. So when the Department of Human Services’ top lawyer testified last week about the governor’s new administrative rules to fund the program, the House Democrats attempted to get him on record that the department would indeed be restoring the full program once a budget deal is in place, which was the deal cut by Rauner and rankand-file legislative Democrats. The attorney refused to say either way, and House Democrats saw that as yet more proof Rauner can’t keep his word. Even a statement by the governor’s office later in the day assuring everyone that the deal stood as made didn’t satisfy the House Democrats, who obviously still are upset with the Senate. There has probably been tension between the House and Senate since 1818, when the state was founded. It certainly has been far worse, such as, for instance, when Emil Jones was Senate president and openly warred with Speaker Madigan, who repeatedly returned the favor. Things are not good right now, however. Like we need even more bad news in Illinois.

CRYSTAL LAKE – A student artist at McHenry County College said she was left “appalled” after a board trustee, who in the process of advocating for more student veterans space, labeled the artist’s painting as “borderline pornographic” during a public meeting. The reference came Nov. 10 during a discussion about space needs at MCC. Trustee Karen Tirio was talking about how major additions were unnecessary given what she described to be a tax-related “mass exodus” from McHenry County, when she added a side note about putting existing space to different use. “If our veterans are so important, why aren’t we doing anything about this now?” said Tirio, who routinely inquires about creating more space for student veterans. “We have art galleries – I just want to preface this with, believe me I am no prude – but when I come in the downstairs art gallery and see these pictures that are borderline pornographic. ... Rather than showcasing something like that, we could turn any one of those galleries into a veterans center.” One of the paintings she was describing was created by 20-year-old Skylar

Student 4 candidates seeking to replace Rep. Tryon filed Monday discusses • ELECTIONS series of paintings Continued from page A1

Continued from page A3 Buetow, a second-year MCC student, who attended the next board of trustees meeting to speak about her work. In a glass-windowed gallery downstairs in Building A, one of four MCC galleries, her piece hangs on the wall showcasing three topless women standing next to each other, colored chains around their necks and bows over their pubic areas. “We have to make a series of four paintings, and they all have to relate,” Buetow told the Northwest Herald. “Mine is all about the objectification of women – how women feel enslaved to what their bodies are supposed to look like.” The painting was meant to give off some sex appeal because “that’s how society sees women’s bodies,” Buetow added. She heard Tirio’s comments when her class watched the recording of the meeting, which Buetow said sparked a conversation about the blurred line between art and pornography. “It was to see how everyone felt about it – what is pornographic and what isn’t,” Buetow said. “To call the gallery pornographic, it was just appalling.” In an email, Tirio, who identified herself as an artist and former MCC art student, later said perhaps she should have used the words, “may be offensive to some,” rather than “borderline pornographic,” but stood by the reasoning behind her sentiment. “I think it’s fine that all art projects be given the option of being displayed, but let’s use some criteria when displaying pieces in areas where there is no filter or warning,” Tirio wrote. “Face it, if I can’t email it to a friend at work, without them getting into trouble, maybe it shouldn’t be in a glass case.”

Total sales in Chicago region down in October • HOME SALES

Continued from page A3 Mike Drews said in a statement. “While there typically is a drop-off in inventory this time of year as potential sellers become immersed in holiday activities, the decline this month was particularly steep. The result is strong median price gains and a decrease in the number of days to sell a home.” Throughout Illinois, median sales price increased 6.3 percent to $168,000 in October from the same time a year ago. The time it took to sell a home last month in Illinois averaged 68 days, a decline from the average of 74 days a year ago. In McHenry County, the median sales price increased to $175,000, up 9.4 percent from October 2014 when the price was $160,000. The average number of days it took to sell a home in the county also declined 9.6 percent from October 2014 to 66 days, association figures show. Throughout the association’s nine-county Chicago region, which includes McHenry County, total home sales in October declined 2 percent to 9,155 total. Available housing inventory declined 11.5 percent to 42,540 properties. Median price in the Chicago area increased 8.1 percent to $200,000, as the average time it took to sell a home dropped by 6.6 percent to 57 days, according to the association.

Construction to reconfigure taxiways, runways lead to O’Hare delays • AIRPORTS

Continued from page A1 That translates into hundreds of millions of dollars extra in operating costs so far this year, according to AP calculations factoring in average operating costs including pilot and flight attendant salaries. Airlines say the longer taxi times are baked into schedules, so planes generally still arrive on time. So far this year, 79 percent of flights have been at the gate within 15 minutes of their scheduled time, the best performance since 2012. Passengers might be spend-

ing more time on planes, but airlines are better managing their expectations by increasing scheduled times. That masks some of the problems, like taxi delays. For instance, 10 years ago the average scheduled time from gate to gate between Chicago and San Francisco was 4 hours and 32 minutes. Today, flights are scheduled for an extra 11 minutes, according to PlaneStats.com – even though airports in the two cities are the same 1,846 miles apart. All it takes are a few problems at some of the country’s busiest airports to drive up the national taxi time average.

The top offender in the past year was Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. Of all the additional taxi time minutes in the nation, one of out of five extra minutes can be traced back to delays at O’Hare. Planes in Chicago this year spent an average of 1 minute and 18 seconds extra navigating the taxiways. And taxi times are up 3 minutes and 24 seconds from five years ago, a 15 percent increase. Those delays add up considering that O’Hare had 227,358 flights during the first nine months of this year. Most of the problems at O’Hare stem from a construction project that is reconfig-

uring taxiways and runways. The long-term goal is to reduce congestion but delays racked up during the construction. A new runway did just open, but further away from the airport’s terminals. Longer trips from that runway are not yet reflected in government data. In an email to the AP, O’Hare officials note that taxi times “will fluctuate as construction phases are started or finished” and that the work is helping to reduce delays in the sky around the airport. Delays also have been climbing at the two main airports in Dallas, but for different reasons. At Dallas Love Field, taxi

times are up two minutes, or 13 percent, so far this year. That’s the highest percent gain of any major airport. Home to Southwest Airlines, Love Field saw the number of scheduled flights during the first nine months of this year spike 41 percent to 47,438 after the repeal of a federal law restricting most long-distance flights from that airport.

Mitchell, the airport’s assistant director for operations, said the increase in flights, construction projects and the use of a further runway to reduce noise concerns of neighbors all led to the run up in taxi times.

Meteorologist: Area could get Teenager next due in court Wednesday up to inch of rain Thursday • RESCUE • TRAVEL

Continued from page A1 number of drivers. However, prices could be responsible for the increase in drivers traveling more than 200 miles for the holiday. “I would say the low prices are probably driving people to go further distances,” DeHaan said. Travelers could encounter fog and some drizzle Wednesday, National Weather Service meteorologist Kevin Donofrio said. On Thanksgiving itself, rain will start in the afternoon and continue into the evening,

dropping as much as an inch of rain, Donofrio said. The rain could cause some pooling on roads and rising streams as it meets the snow left behind from the weekend’s near record-setting winter storm. Some of that snow will have melted by Thanksgiving, Donofrio said, as temperatures reach into the 50s by Thursday. “It’s going to be mild, but not pretty,” Donofrio said. Wet roads could refreeze Friday, when the area could get some light snow, Donofrio said. He added highs in the 40s will arrive Friday morning and drop from there.

Kurtis, Joshua, Adam and Zachary: “Your Mother is always with you. She’s the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street. She’s the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you pick, the fragrance of life itself. She’s the cool hand on your brow when you’re not feeling well. She’s your breath in the air on a cold winter’s day. She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep, the colors of a rainbow, she is Christmas morning. Your mother lives inside your laughter. She’s the place you came from, your first home, and she’s the map you follow with every step you take. She’s your first love, your first friend, even your first enemy, but nothing on earth can separate you, not time, not space...not even death.” - Unknown

Many ways to give back at holidays The holiday season is underway, and for many, the tradition includes shopping trips in which carts will be filled first with all the trimmings needed for a Thanksgiving meal, then with gifts for family and friends. Outside many of those stores, you’ll find reminders of another holiday tradition – helping others and sharing what you have. The red kettles of The Salvation Army will become a familiar sight, and it’s For the record probably the most simple way to doDonations to The Salvation nate during your Army, food banks, toy drives, shopping day. It’s homeless shelters and other as easy as reaching nonprofit agencies will help into your pocket, the organizations cope with pulling out some increased demand. money, and dropping it into the donation kettle. It’s a gesture that helps many, and it’s always important to help when you can. As we struggle through a difficult economy, there are more and more people in need. The Red Kettle Campaign kicked off earlier this month. The Salvation Army Capt. Carol Lewis said she hopes the 53 kettles in place this year will collect $200,000. “Every bit of change that goes in those red kettles that you see out at the stores, for every bit of change that goes in, change comes out in the life of a person,” Lewis said. The agency also will host its first community meal Thanksgiving Day. From 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., the agency will host anyone looking for food and fellowship at their Corps Community Center, 290 W. Crystal Lake Ave. Spokeswoman Linda West said the event also will include movies in the chapel, so people feel they can stay after they’ve finished eating. McHenry County residents and organizations also can help this holiday season by participating in The Salvation Amry’s Angel Tree program, which annually provides Christmas gifts to roughly 1,500 children. Donations to The Salvation Army, food banks, toy drives, homeless shelters and other nonprofit agencies will help the organizations cope with increased demand. Giving to a group such as the United Way, for example, provides an opportunity to help many organizations. Dropping coins or dollars into Salvation Army kettles can help provide services to many who need them. Donating money to PADS will help give needed warmth to many who have fallen on hard times. Sharing the holiday spirit goes beyond sharing your money. We recognize not everybody has that option. Many who were happy to give in the past might not have money to spare this year. For some, they are the ones in need of the help. Those who are short on cash still can provide assistance. There are volunteer opportunities everywhere. The Salvation Army will need people to ring the bells at the kettles. Food banks need volunteers to help collect, sort and distribute food. Church groups, Rotary and Lions clubs and other organizations surely can keep you busy at events throughout the year. Most of us are in a position to help in some way. It’s important to embrace that.

ANOTHER VIEW

Law endangers women Defenders of a Texas law that restricts abortion clinics say its main purpose is to protect women’s health. So far, however, it has mainly undermined their safety. Since 2013, when the law began requiring that clinic doctors have admitting privileges at local hospitals, the number of clinics providing abortion services in Texas has fallen by more than half, from 42 to 18. There’s no proof that this in any way “elevated” care. But many women in the state – an estimated 100,000 to 240,000 – have since tried to end a pregnancy on their own, according to research at the University of Texas. Many of these women tried to self-induce abortion by taking misoprostol, a drug that is sometimes used in combination with RU-486, which is available without a prescription in some pharmacies in Mexico. Others used herbs, homeopathic treatments or even more dubious procedures, including alcohol, illegal drugs or punches to the abdomen. The Texas law, which the Supreme Court agreed last week to review, was never truly meant to protect women’s health. If the court’s conservative majority wants to set unreasonable limits on abortion, it should do so forthrightly – by overturning Roe, not by sanctioning Texas’s subterfuge and misdirection. Given their own precedents, which have correctly established abortion as legal in the U.S., it shouldn’t be a hard choice.

Refugee refusal moves past point of parody Nothing says “America” like “Shoo, huddled masses! Move along!” Last week was a bad week for parody. Governors and candidates on the right of the aisle have been falling over themselves to see who can take a more hard-line stance against ... refugees fleeing Syria’s civil war. Twenty-six governors have made statements opposing letting refugees past their borders. Gov. Chris Christie vowed he would oppose letting even “3-year-old orphans” come to New Jersey. Apparently, Christie has been replaced with a Dickens villain. Then again, Dickens villains traditionally poll well in the GOP primary, with their hard-line stances against handouts (“MORE? You want MORE?”). When you are taking a hard-line stance against 3-year-old orphans, you can feel confident you are on the right side of history. We all know of those many tales of terrorists sneaking into places disguised

VIEWS Alexandra Petri as 3-year-olds. But this is not even the most cartoonishly awful remark someone has made about admitting refugees. The mayor of Roanoke wrote an open letter in which he cited internment of Japanese Americans as a positive example of what to do. Internment! Someone get this man tickets to “Allegiance”! When you are citing internment – a hideous black spot on America’s record for which the entire page in my history textbook was just a groveling apology and a picture of the Statue of Liberty looking sad – with approval, you have passed the point of parody. The mayor noted the threat “now is just as real and serious as that from our enemies then” which is true, but not the way he means. And don’t forget Donald

Trump, who keeps inveighing against the prospect of bringing 250,000 Syrian refugees to America. Good news, Donald: NO ONE ADVOCATED THIS AT ANY POINT EVER. THIS IS A NUMBER YOU MADE UP. If the Trump campaign has taught us anything, it is you no longer need to be low-key about your xenophobia. You can just go straight out and say “Move along! You’re not welcome here,” like an angry Mos Eisley bartender. And then of course there’s Ted Cruz and Jeb(!), proposing religious litmus tests for who gets to come to safety (Christians only!) – a strategy that has historically been not associated with anything awful, of course. This is hard to parody, because it is already at the frozen limit of what you thought was possible. Once more, with feeling: We are supposed to be admitting only 10,000 Syrian refugees, and only 2 percent of them are males of military age. And they’re

undergoing a vetting process that takes 18 months. And of the so-far-identified Paris attackers, all were European nationals. I am not saying bringing refugees to America is the only possible solution – or even that it is bad to want to have a solid vetting process in place for the refugees we do admit, since it is harder to do background checks on those fleeing a regime that is not going to be cooperative about sharing documents. But do we have to be so cartoonishly awful about it? Can’t we stand by the principle of being open and welcoming instead of standing up against 3-year-olds and praising internment? Villains in “Hairspray” were more subtle. Ah, America, as Emma Lazarus wrote, “that gated community where none may penetrate.” This isn’t funny any more. • Alexandra Petri writes the Washington Post’s ComPost blog, offering a lighter take on the news and opinions of the day.

VIEWS

Want to boost productivity? Raise minimum wages By NOAH SMITH Bloomberg View I’ve spent some time talking about the downsides of minimum-wage laws. But there is a big possible upside I haven’t mentioned, in part because it’s pretty speculative. It’s the idea minimum wages improve productivity and innovation over the long run. Usually, it’s detractors of the minimum wage who talk about the long term. Minimum-wage hikes tend to have only small or negligible effects on employment levels, but critics of setting pay floors have said they slow long-term employment growth. But I’m now thinking about the even longer term, and about the effect of minimum wages on productivity rather than employment. In the long term, productivity comes from technology. Economists often treat technology as if it just appears out of nowhere, but in fact it comes from the innovative efforts of companies and researchers. Why do companies innovate? You might think companies invent any technology that will make them more productive, but this isn’t actually true, for a number of reasons. First of all, innovators don’t know ahead of time which things they will

be able to create – trying to innovate is risky, and companies are usually risk-averse. Second, companies may be focused on the short term, and may thus be unwilling to shell out cash for research and development that would only pay off years later. Finally, companies may simply get comfortable with what they have and fail to engage in innovation unless they feel sufficiently intense pressure to do so. So what happens if a company suddenly finds it has to pay higher wages? It might just take the hit to its profit margins and continue operating as before. It might decide to downsize, laying off workers and shrinking its operations. Or, it might decide to invest in labor-saving technology. Forbes writer Adam Ozimek pointed this out back in 2013, in an article titled “Doubling McDonald’s Salaries A Great Way To Get Workers Replaced By Machines”: “We’re hearing more and more about machines replacing workers, and there are some obvious contenders for replacement within a McDonald’s... [Automated payment kiosks are] just the most obvious way for machines to replace workers. One company... is already working on robots to replace

the cooks too. ... In the longrun such technological change makes us better off on average[.]” In the two years since then, Ozimek’s prediction has come true. McDonald’s is installing a line of automated kiosks where people can create their own burgers. Of course, Ozimek is a dogged minimum-wage opponent and is trying to make workers worried minimum wages will cost them their jobs. But I am not sure workers should be so afraid of being replaced by this kind of technological improvement. Ultimately, it may make them more productive and actually help them earn more. In the past, when companies implemented labor-saving technology – whether assembly lines or computers – their workers didn’t simply go on the unemployment rolls. They became more productive than before and commanded higher wages. If they got laid off, they eventually found jobs at other companies – and since the economy overall was more productive because of the innovation, more new companies were started. In the past, automation always has complemented human beings instead of making them irrelevant. That might change in the future, but so far the old pattern

is still holding. For workers to become more productive to take advantage of new technologies, they often have to improve their skills. Workers always have been able to do this quite successfully. When the Industrial Revolution demanded people learn to read, they learned to read. When the Information Revolution forced people to use computers, they learned how. Low-skilled workers might have skimped on education because they were focused on the short term; the pressures of a technologically advancing workplace may force them to think longer term and develop new skills. So minimum wage laws, by forcing us to abandon lowskilled labor, might actually increase technological innovation. Some people even speculate this effect might have started the Industrial Revolution itself. Of course, this theory is fairly speculative – theories that play out over years or decades are hard to test with real-world data. But it’s a potential benefit of the minimum wage that is worth thinking about.

U of Ill. hikes aid, drops scores to enroll Changes will affect in-state students By DAVID MERCER The Associated Press CHAMPAIGN – After years of pursuing higher-paying international students and watching in-state enrollment fall, the University of Illinois’ flagship campus shifted course this year, increasing financial aid for students from Illinois but also taking the unusual step of accepting lower test scores. An analysis by The Associated Press found that ACT test scores for incoming freshmen from Illinois dropped for the

first time in at least a decade. The school’s strategy followed pressure from lawmakers, university trustees and parents to enroll more in-state students, and it appears to have worked: The number went up by 11 percent. The $5.4 million increase in financial aid – primarily for low-income families and under-represented groups – comes at a time when the university’s financial picture is uncertain, primarily due to a state-government cash crisis. “In thinking about our en-

Meeting allows discussion of shooting video By DON BABWIN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Amid concerns about possible unrest, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel invited ministers and community activists to City Hall on Monday to discuss the upcoming release of a video that shows a white police officer fatally shooting a black teenager last year. Seventeen-year-old Laquan McDonald was shot 16 times. Police have said he refused to drop a knife. There is growing concern in the community about what could happen when people see the incident for themselves. A judge last week ordered the police department to release the police car dashcam footage by Wednesday. Two ministers invited to meet with Emanuel said they think the mayor will solicit their help in preventing the kind of unrest seen in Baltimore and Ferguson, Missouri, after the killings of young black men by police in those cities. “We are assuming he is going to ask us to call for calm,” the Rev. Marshall Hatch said. Emanuel’s office characterized the meeting as something “we regularly do on important topics.” But Hatch and the Rev. Ira Acree said it is a rare occurrence and shows the mayor is concerned there might be violence. “We have been trying to meet with the mayor since the beginning of the year to talk about community relations and his staff asks for a letter and says ‘We’ll get back to you,’ but they never do,” Acree said. Hatch said: “This has the feeling of them scrambling.” The shooting occurred on Oct. 20, 2014, as police responded to a 911 call of a man carrying a knife. Lawyers for McDonald’s family who have seen the video say it shows the teen with a small knife and walking away from officers. They say Officer Jason Van Dyke opens fire from about 15 feet and keeps

Journalist Brandon Smith (left) and activist William Calloway talk to reporters Thursday after a Cook County judge ordered the Chicago Police Department to release a video of an officer fatally shooting 17-year-old Laquan McDonald in Chicago. The video is said to show the officer shooting McDonald 16 times. shooting after the teen falls. Emanuel’s meeting with ministers and activists comes as residents brace both for the video’s release and for word on whether Van Dyke will face criminal charges. The FBI and the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office are investigating the shooting, and an announcement on state or federal charges could come as soon as this week. Acree and Hatch said blacks in the city are upset about the shooting and because city officials and the police department refused for several months to release the video until ordered to do so by a judge. They said people also are angry because the officer, though stripped of his police powers, has been assigned to desk duty and not fired. “They had the opportunity to be a good example and a model across the country on how to improve police and community relations and they missed it,” Acree said. The police department has said it refused to release the video out of concern that doing so would hamper the federal and state investigations.

rollment, we did ask ourselves, have we raised the bar just a little too high?” said Charles Tucker, vice provost for undergraduate education and innovation. “We always want to attract the best and brightest students here, and we want to provide a great education for them. But, you know, we also asked ourselves, are we biased a little too much that way?” In recent years, many state universities around the country have actively recruited more out-of-state and international students to help make up for dwindling state financial support and pressure to compete for top faculty. But those

universities have been pushed by school leaders and others to enroll more students from their home states. At the University of Iowa, for example, regents set funding levels based in part on instate enrollment after in-state freshman enrollment fell below 50 percent. And a Washington state lawmaker pushed through legislation that tied the University of Washington’s ability to increase enrollment to maintaining minimum levels of instate students. In Illinois, some parents, students and educators had been shocked certain students couldn’t get into the U of I.

“We’ve got kids who are getting 30 or better ACT [scores] who are not getting scholarships from the U of I,” said Amy Malone, a school counselor at Monticello High School, about 15 miles west of the campus. State Rep. Chad Hays, an eastern Illinois Republican, says he has raised the issue with university administrators and believes more kids from Chicago – its public schools, in particular – should be getting in. Illinois has been among the U.S. universities that have recruited most heavily overseas, with 5,295 students from China this school year, which is 12 per-

cent of the total enrollment. Even if in-state students are admitted, it’s often cheaper to go out of state. Tuition for instate students costs $12,036 annually, a figure trustees froze this year to attract more Illinois residents. But a student from another state will pay $27,196, and an international student will pay $28,026. The university proudly announced in September that the number of in-state students in its freshman class was up to 5,490 – 72.6 percent of all new freshmen and 563 more than the previous fall. But the school also enrolled 7.5 percent more international freshman – 1,120.

$160 billion deal to combine Pfizer and Allergan raises outcry By LINDA A. JOHNSON and TOM MURPHY The Associated Press A $160 billion deal announced Monday to merge Pfizer and Allergan and create the world’s biggest drug company renewed the outcry in Washington over “inversions,” in which U.S. corporations combine with companies overseas to lower their tax bill. The combination – the second-largest merger in history – could have ramifications around the globe, pushing up drug prices and spurring more such deals in the fast-consolidating health care sector and other fields. It also is increasing the election-year backlash from U.S. politicians who have been blasting drugmakers recently over medicine prices that can exceed $100,000 a year. In what would be the biggest inversion ever, New York-based Pfizer could save hundreds of millions in U.S. taxes annually because it would move its tax headquarters to Ireland, where Allergan is based. That would enable Pfizer to slash its tax rate from around 25 percent this year to about 18 percent. Inversions have long been attacked by some politicians as a tax dodge, and Hillary Rodham Clinton and Bernie Sanders, the leading Democratic presidential contenders, criticized the deal. Clinton said it will leave “U.S. taxpayers holding the bag,” while Sanders said it will be a “disaster” for

Americans already paying high prescription drug costs. Asked if the deal was designed to avoid taxes, Pfizer CEO Ian Read said only that company executives’ obligation is to shareholders and patients. The merger is subject to approval from regulators in the U.S., European Union and elsewhere. It also needs the go-ahead from shareholders of both companies. Pfizer makes such drugs as Viagra, cholesterol-lowering Lipitor and the clot-preventer Eliquis. Allergan produces the wrinkle treatment Botox and Restasis for dry eyes, and also has a superior pipeline of medicines in development. If it goes through, the merger will return Pfizer to the top spot in the pharmaceutical industry, after years in which competition from cheaper generics cut into its revenue from some of its blockbuster drugs. The combination will essentially be Pfizer “but with a lower tax rate,” wrote Bernstein analyst Tim Anderson. Despite attempts by Congress and the Treasury Department to thwart the practice, about 50 U.S. companies have inverted in the past decade, and more are considering it, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service. Treasury said it had no comment Monday. Ireland’s lower corporate tax rate would have saved Pfizer nearly $1 billion of the $3.1 billion in U.S. taxes it paid in 2014.

Suicide vest in Paris possible link to suspect By RAF CASERT and ELAINE GANLEY The Associated Press PARIS – A street cleaner on Monday found an explosive vest similar to those used in the Paris attacks near the place where a fugitive suspect’s cellphone was found, raising the possibility that he aborted his mission, either ditching a malfunctioning vest or fleeing in fear. Authorities said the device, which did not have a detonator, was found in a pile of rubble in the southern Paris suburb of Montrouge. A police official said the vest contained bolts and the same type of explosive used in the Nov. 13 Paris attacks that claimed 130 lives and left hundreds wounded. It was found in the same area where a cellphone belonging to fugitive suspect Salah Abdeslam was pinpointed by GPS on the day of the Paris attacks, two police officials said. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the investigation. Police have been conducting a manhunt for Abdeslam, who was stopped by police after the attacks but let go and allowed to travel on to Belgium. Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel, meanwhile, announced Brussels would remain at the highest alert level for at least another week, maintaining security measures that have severely disrupted normal life in the Belgian capital since the weekend. Michel cited a “serious and imminent” threat,” to the city, which houses the headquarters of the European Union and NATO, and said the rest of the country would stay at the second-highest level. Belgium’s

crisis center said the alert level would only change if a significant breakthrough warranted it. The increased security measures in the wake of the massacre in Paris have virtually shut down the Belgian capital, with the subway system, many shops and schools remaining shut on Monday. Michel said that despite the continued high-alert level, schools would reopen on Wednesday, with parts of the subway system beginning to operate the same day. He did not say when the system would be completely online again. “We are very alert and call for caution,” Michel said. “The potential targets remain the same: shopping centers and shopping streets and public transport.” “We want to return to a normal way of life as quickly as possible,” he added. The unprecedented security measures come as authorities hunt for one or more suspected extremists, including Abdeslam. Belgian authorities have not announced any details of their investigation into potential attacks nor have they released any information about four suspects who have been arrested and charged with terrorism-related offenses. These include one suspect who was arrested as part of a sweep that saw 21 people detained since Sunday night. Fifteen of those detainees have since been released. Earlier Monday, British Prime Minister David Cameron said during a visit to Paris that he would seek parliamentary approval for the U.K. to join the airstrikes being carried out by the U.S., France, Russia and other nations against the Islamic State extremists in Syria.

BRIEFS Police hunt suspects in New Orleans shooting

NEW ORLEANS – Police on Monday sought to determine what touched off a wild shootout in a crowd of hundreds of people at a New Orleans playground, where an evening of fun at a block party swiftly turned into a nightmare. The shootout, combined with the recent shooting of a good Samaritan who tried to help a woman who was being dragged toward a vehicle, put a city that has long struggled with violence on edge. “No one feels safe,” said Peter Scharf, a Louisiana State University professor who studies crime. The Sunday night shootout happened as hundreds of people – possibly as many as 500 – gathered at the Bunny Friend Playground in what police described as a block party. A music video also was being filmed there. Police said neither event had a permit.

2 men charged with murder of pastor’s wife

INDIANAPOLIS – Authorities charged two young men with murder on Monday in the fatal shooting of a pastor’s pregnant wife during a home invasion that happened after the minister left the couple’s Indianapolis home without locking the front door. Amanda Blackburn, 28, was found partially nude, with her underwear nearby and her shirt pulled up, lying in a pool of blood on her living room floor. She died one day after the Nov. 10 attack on Indianapolis’ northwest side. Her husband, Pastor Davey Blackburn, told police he had left the home’s front door unlocked when he departed about 6 a.m. that morning to go to the gym and work out and returned home about 8:20

a.m. to find his wounded wife. The couple’s 15-month-old son, Weston, was at home upstairs in a crib but was not harmed in the attack. Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry identified the two men charged with murder as Larry Larry Jo Jo Taylor Jr., Taylor Jr. 18, and Jalen E. Watson, 21, both of Indianapolis, who face murder, burglary, theft and several Jalen E. other charges. Watson A probable cause affidavit says Taylor shot Blackburn three times, including once in the back of the head. Watson also faces a murder charge because Blackburn was killed during a burglary in which prosecutors allege he was involved.

Planned Parenthood sues Texas over Medicaid

AUSTIN, Texas – Planned Parenthood sued again Monday over efforts by Republican governors to block Medicaid funding to the nation’s largest abortion provider, this time against Texas, where the organization says health care access to 13,500 women is on the line. Federal courts have so far halted similar attempts in Arkansas, Louisiana and Alabama while lawsuits play out. Texas plans to kick Planned Parenthood out of the state’s Medicaid program by Dec. 8. The lawsuit filed in Austin begins another legal showdown between Texas and abortion providers. Earlier this month, the U.S. Supreme Court announced it will hear arguments over a 2013 law that abortion rights groups say would leave

about 10 abortion clinics open statewide. Planned Parenthood also sued Texas in 2012 over being booted from the state women’s health program but eventually lost that case. Planned Parenthood now is trying to hang onto Medicaid reimbursements at its Texas clinics, including those that don’t perform abortions. State officials moved in October to block the dollars after accusing Planned Parenthood of scheduling abortions in a way that would best procure fetal tissue for medical research. The state levied the accusation after anti-abortion activists released undercover videos they say show Planned Parenthood officials discussing the illegal for-profit sale of fetal tissue. Planned Parenthood has denied both claims. “We’re not backing down, and we won’t shut our doors,” Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards said. Ten anonymous Planned Parenthood patients, who said they would lose access to their health provider of choice, also joined the lawsuit.

Mali releases photos of slain gunmen in attack

BAMAKO, Mali – State media broadcast photos Monday of the two slain attackers of a luxury hotel in Mali’s capital, appealing for anyone who knew them to come forward with information about the gunmen. The photos of the two young men were taken after Friday’s rampage at the Radisson Blu hotel in which 19 people were killed, said Capt. Baba Cisse at the Interior Ministry. The gunmen, who shouted “God is great!” in Arabic as they attacked, were shot to death by security forces following a more than seven-hour siege in the capital of the West African country.

Officials also put out phone numbers, urging people who might have known them to call with information. The decision to release the photos came a day after the Islamic extremist group that first claimed responsibility for the attack purported to identify the gunmen in an audio recording, according to Al-Akhbar, a Mauritanian news site that often receives messages from Malian extremists.

Boy’s family seeks $15M after clock incident

IRVING, Texas – Attorneys for a 14-year-old Muslim boy arrested after the homemade clock he took to his Dallas-area school was mistaken for a possible bomb said Monday he was publicly mistreated and deserves $15 million. A law firm representing Ahmed Ahmed Mohamed sent Mohamed letters Monday demanding $10 million from the city of Irving and $5 million from the Irving Independent School District. The letters also threaten lawsuits and seek written apologies. Ahmed took his clock to school in September, and an educator thought it could be a bomb. Ahmed was arrested but never charged. He was suspended from school. “What has happened to this family is inexcusable,” Kelly Hollingsworth, an attorney for Ahmed and his family, said in an email. “As indicated in the letters, the long term effects on Ahmed are incalculable.” Meribeth Sloan, a spokeswoman for Irving said the city is reviewing its letter and has no comment. The district didn’t immediately return a message Monday. – Wire reports

Marian rallies to defeat C-G

Game tape confirms confusion vs. Denver

Pischke’s big 2nd half leads ’Canes By TIM SIECK sports@nwherald.com

WOODSTOCK – The recipe for beating Marian Central seems pretty simple: Limit Adam Pischke from the outside and Sam Ohlrich on the inside, and you have a pretty good chance. Executing that game plan is another story as Cary-Grove learned Monday. Pischke and Ohlrich turned it on in the second half and broke open a close game in the fourth quarter to defeat the Trojans, 63-50, in the first game of the 16th annual Hoops for Healing Thanksgiving Tournament at Woodstock North High School. C-G (0-1) started the game doing what it needed to do against Marian (1-0). Pischke, a Northwest Herald All-Area first-team selection last season, was held

BOYS BASKETBALL: CRYSTAL LAKE CENTRAL THANKSGIVING TOURNAMENT

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE

PR shuts down Belvidere N. By RYAN ALTMAN

sports@nwherald.com CRYSTAL LAKE – To play on Prairie Ridge coach Corky Card’s basketball team, it requires the ability to do several different things well, especially on the defensive end. “A lot of energy, a lot of communication,” junior guard Brian Dorn said. “Just sprinting, racing the ball and not chasing it.” The Wolves’ fast-paced pressure defense forced 20 turnovers and limited Belvidere North to 25 percent from the field in their season-opening 56-20 victo-

ry over the Blue Thunder at the Crystal Lake Central Thanksgiving Tournament played at Prairie Ridge. The Wolves (1-0) opened the game with an 8-2 run after a pair of 3-pointers, but it was the defense that put the heat on early in the game with a half-court press. Supplied at the point of attack by Dorn, among others, the pressure was too much for the Blue Thunder (0-1) to handle, especially in the second quarter. The Wolves didn’t allow a point in the quarter and not until 6:50 remained in the third quarter. “I thought our energy was really good at the beginning of the game,” Card said.

“Brian set the pace at the front of our press.” Offensively, the Wolves had plenty of open looks, as their ball movement outmaneuvered the Blue Thunder zone. Dorn scored a game-high 16 points, while senior guards Payton Otto and Chris Bradshaw added 12 and eight, respectively. Card liked the ball movement his team had, but moving forward, he said he’d like to see the ball scored on the interior more often. The Wolves will face Geneva (1-0) at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday at Crystal Lake Central.

The buzz surrounding the Bears heading into their 17-15 loss to Denver was that they were a hot team having won four of their past six and trending up. Now they’ve dropped three of their past five.

There were missed assignments and missed communications throughout the game. The interception Jay Cutler threw to Danny Travathan halfway through the third quarter was the first really bad throw he’s made since Charles Woodson intercepted him in the Raiders game. His sack, strip and fumble weren’t completely his fault, as he couldn’t see Von Miller coming around behind him from the left, but he probably held the ball too long. Cutler still made enough plays to keep the Bears in the game to the end, but he was a B- on the day at best. Running backs Jeremy Langford and Ka’Deem Carey were a C. Langford’s 13 carries for 25 yards with a long run of 5 yards appeared to frustrate him, his vision suffered and he missed several seams as the game wore on, and Carey ran hard but brings nothing else to the position. Martellus Bennett and Zach Miller are warming to their two-tight end sets in the passing game and had a nice day, a B. Bennett is becoming a master at drawing interference calls on smaller defensive backs and created two flags on his own Sunday. Unfortunately, neither had a great day blocking the run.

PREP FOOTBALL NOTES

Historic season for Trojans First time Cary-Grove made consecutive state semifinals By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com

and ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com Cary-Grove played in its sixth semifinal game in school history Saturday, although it marked the first time the Trojans played in back-to-back semis. C-G lost to Glenbard West, 21-6, in their Class 7A semifinal, which was its first loss in a semifinal since 1997 at Rock Island. Although many teams would repeat with a predominantly junior team Brad Seaburg the first season, C-G did it without numerous returning players. The Trojans graduated 16 starters, yet still managed to get back to the semis. “This is the first time since I’ve been around that we had a season after a state championship game where we made it to the semis,” said coach Brad Seaburg, who has been with C-G for 13 seasons (eight as an assistant, five as head coach). “That speaks volumes to our seniors, and we have a lot of young guys that need to take this and use it as motivation and keep going in the weight room in the offseason. It doesn’t get any easier. It takes a lot of work. When you’re here, you want to appreciate it and realize the work it takes to come back.” The Trojans’ first loss, a 29-8 setback to Huntley in Week 5, served as motivation for the rest of the season. They regrouped and rolled through the rest of the regular season and their first three playoff games. “It definitely shows we have a great group of guys in that locker room in there that come to practice every day and work hard in the offseason,” Trojans

offensive tackle Ross Bernier said. “We had one of the best offseasons we’ve had with this group of guys. Everyone was locked in. The way we worked and the way the coaches prepared us, no matter how many we lose, we’re always going to be top contenders every year.” Seaburg is 52-11 in five seasons after taking over for Bruce Kay, an Illinois High School Football Coaches Association Hall of Famer. Program builder: Glenbard West coach Chad Hetlet followed two local coaching legends to jobs in McHenry County. First, he took over for IHSFCA Hall of Famer Bob Bradshaw at Johnsburg in 2003, then moved to McHenry the next year when Mike Noll went to Glenbrook South. Hetlet coached two seasons at McHenry before he left there and now has built the Hilltoppers into one of the state’s top programs. Hetlet’s teams are 88-13 in his nine seasons and will meet Libertyville at 7 p.m. Friday at Northern Illinois University’s Huskie Stadium in DeKalb for the Class 7A state championship. This will be the third championship game for Hetlet’s teams. His 2009 group lost in double-overtime to Wheaton Warrenville South, and his 2012 team defeated Lincoln-Way East, 10-8. Handling the snow: After a 53-yard touchdown run by Justin Blake gave Montini the early lead over Prairie Ridge in the first quarter Saturday, Prairie Ridge’s Samson Evans found his footing in the snow and raced 75 yards on the ensuing kickoff, hurdling the last defender to the end zone. While some players found it difficult to get enough traction with a heavy snow falling, Evans was the same reliable threat for the Wolves, accounting for 111 of his team’s 116 rushing yards before

halftime and completing a 19-yard pass to Austen Ferbet in blizzard-like conditions. Play was stopped multiple times in Montini’s 35-27 Class 6A semifinal comeback win as workers shoveled snow off the field and referees had trouble spotting the ball for measurement. Evans’ only pass of the first half to Ferbet set up his own touchdown run with 38.2 seconds left in the second quarter, a 3-yard keeper. Evans followed it with a 2-point conversion run up the middle, giving Prairie Ridge a 14-13 lead at the break. “For us, [playing in the snow] wasn’t that tough because it doesn’t really make a difference with the option,” said Evans, who finished with 160 rushing yards and one touchdown. “All the snow, it goes in our favor. It’s up to the defense to react.” In the second half, however, the snow slowed down considerably and Montini was able to expand its playbook. Blake, whose only two passes of the first half fell incomplete, was 4 for 5 in the second half for 93 yards and a touchdown. He had back-to-back 40-yard completions to end the third and start the fourth that led to Montini’s comeback. Prairie Ridge led, 27-13, after three, but the Broncos scored 22 unanswered points in the first seven minutes of the fourth. “We were actually really excited for it. We thought that it was going to help us,” Prairie Ridge’s Cole Brown said of playing in the snow. “They run a spread offense; we run a triple-option, so we thought it would help us in the game, but I guess it didn’t. They executed. And that’s what it came down to.” Nick Greenberg intercepted Blake to start the second half, returning it to the Montini 10, but Prairie Ridge was unable to score. It was Blake’s first interception of the year.

BOYS BASKETBALL: CRYSTAL LAKE CENTRAL THANKSGIVING TOURNAMENT

Geneva overwhelms Huntley By RYAN ALTMAN sports@nwherald.com CRYSTAL LAKE – To Huntley boys basketball coach Will Benson, the thought of playing a 2014 state semifinalist in its season-opener didn’t really cross his mind. “To be honest, the opponent really mattered less to me than it normally does,” Benson said. “We were more focused on what we were trying to do. We only have a couple guys who have varsity experience, so it’s a starting point, something to build off of.” The Red Raiders were

tasked with stopping Geneva, a team that went 30-5 last season, which lost to Normal Community in the Class 4A semifinals. However, after scoring only two first-quarter points, the Red Raiders (0-1) Olalere couldn’t overOladipo come an early 15-point deficit en route to a 4828 loss in their first game of the Crystal Lake Central Thanksgiving Tournament played at Prairie Ridge.

“You could tell, especially in the first [quarter], that defensively, [Geneva] was going faster, a little more physical than our players were used to,” Benson said. Huntley junior forward Olalere Oladipo said he felt his team gradually improved on its reaction to Geneva’s press, but the shots just weren’t falling. “I think we broke [the press] down pretty nice,” said Oladipo, who had a team-high 15 points on 5-of-9 shooting, adding seven rebounds. “We broke it in, we just weren’t scoring off of it. We could have done a better job with that.”

Pischke goes off for 25 in 2nd half • MARIAN Continued from page C1 to four shots in the first half and scored six points, and the game was back and forth the whole first quarter. The Trojans kept it going in the second quarter, storming out on an 8-0 run and building as much as a six-point lead on multiple occasions in the second quarter. The Hurricanes needed to regroup, and the halftime break couldn’t come fast enough.

“We started off really slow tonight, and Pischke and Ohlrich really didn’t shoot much,” Marian coach Curtis Price said. “We shot way too many 3s, and they weren’t falling. We told Pischke at halftime to take the ball to the hole and shoot more.” In the second half, the senior obliged. Pischke scored 25 points in the second half and was able to get to the free-throw line 10 times, making eight, to help the Hurricanes pull away. Ohlrich scored 16 points

and added 12 rebounds. The Trojans made a game of it for three quarters, but in the end it was too much Pischke and Ohlrich. C-G was led by Danny Schmidt with 12 points. “Pischke is a really tough player to guard, and he showed that in the second half,” Trojans coach Ralph Schuetzle said. “I was really happy with how hard we played. Marian Central is a really good team. You need to get to the foul line if you are going to beat a team like this, and tonight we didn’t

Ohio lost to Minnesota by 3 points • NIU Continued from page C1 However, Ohio (7-4 overall, 4-3 in MAC East) has caused teams headaches this season. The Bobcats gave Marshall one of its two losses on the year and narrowly lost, 27-24, at Minnesota. “You’re talking about an Ohio team here that’s a veteran group,” NIU coach Rod Carey said. “(They have) a lot of returning players, already has seven wins this year, so they know they’re going bowling.” One of those returning players is sophomore running back AJ Ouellette, who rushed for 127 yards and had two touchdowns against the Huskies last season – a game NIU won, 21-14, on a fourth-quarter touchdown pass from Hare to Chad Beebe. In 2015, Ouellette has a teamhigh 502 rushing yards (45.6 per game, 4.7 per carry) and has scored five rushing touchdowns. He had his first 100-plus rushing game of the season in a 48-31 win over Ball State, finishing with 121 yards. “He’s got great feet, great vision, he’s big,” Carey said. “He’s got good speed. He’s got good hips. ... In the end, he presents you a lot of problems. You’ve got to wrap up on him and gang tackle him.” The Bobcats are in the mid-

dle of the conference in several key categories – including ranked fifth in the MAC in points per game (27.5) and points allowed per game (25.2). Meanwhile, the Huskies look to continue impressive streaks n Tuesday. They’ve won 22 consecutive games in November – the longest streak in FBS – and could become the second team to make the MAC Championship game six straight seasons, with Marshall (1997 to 2002) being the other. A closer look at Tuesday’s game:

Bears waive Clausen, promote Fales By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com LAKE FOREST – Coach John Fox announced Monday the Bears had waived backup quarterback Jimmy Clausen and promoted David Fales to the 53-man roster. Fox acknowledged there was outside interest in Fales, which means a team was trying to sign him off the Bears’

practice squad. Last year, the Patriots and Chargers reportedly had interest in Fales and the Bears moved him to the active roster. Clausen re-signed with the Bears this past offseason as the No. 2 quarterback, reuniting with Fox, who drafted Clausen in the second round of the 2010 draft when with the Panthers. This season in two games and one

start, Clausen completed 23 of 40 passes for 184 yards, no touchdowns and an interception. Fales has never played in an NFL game, but he’ll now be one Jay Cutler injury away from entering the lineup. Despite an illness that kept him out for most of training camp, Fales rallied late in the preseason to make the roster. He completed 14 of 18 passes for

131 yards and two scores in the preseason finale. It’s certainly possible the coach who drafted Fales, Baltimore offensive coordinator Marc Trestman, had an interest, as the Ravens are in need of quarterback help after Joe Flacco’s season-ending injury Sunday. Trestman’s Ravens also could be interested in Clausen, who will be subject to waivers.

Communication breakdowns By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@chicagofootball.com LAKE FOREST – NFL players often talk about having a short memory, and the Bears have no choice this week. They had no time to even watch film of Sunday’s loss to the Broncos as they began their rushed preparation for the Packers on Thursday night. Players didn’t need to review the tape to know communication was an issue, from Demaryius Thomas’ 48-yard touchdown to the failed 2-point conversion attempt in the final minute. “Before the snap, there was a miscommunication on where we were supposed to be aligned, which, as I said, I should have corrected,” cornerback Tracy Porter said of what led to Thomas being wide open on the first series of the game. “Once the ball was snapped, [Kyle Fuller] kind of got jammed up and tangled up behind a different receiver, and he kind of got lost in the shuffle. “[Thomas] was wide open. His quarterback, he’s 7-foot-12, so it wasn’t hard to miss

an open target like that.” Porter did hold Thomas to two catches for 11 yards the rest of the game. On offense, it appeared not everyone was on the same page on the 2-point conversion try, with at least one offensive lineman in a pass-blocking set (Hroniss Grasu). Matt Slauson wouldn’t go into specifics but confirmed communication was an issue in the loss. “I don’t exactly know what the problem was on that. Like I said, we aren’t going to be able to review that,” he said. “But everybody knows, not just that play but all game long, the issue was lack of communication, lack of finish, so that is now corrected, and we are ready to move forward.” Quick turnaround: Porter got straight to his thoughts on playing football games on Thursdays. “It [stinks], actually,” he said. “It’s not good. You’re sore from the game before. Your body’s used to having more days in between, but it’s part of the game, and you learn to adjust to it.” The Bears did win on a short week in

St. Louis in Week 10, but that was five days to recover from San Diego. This week, it’s three. “It doesn’t really matter to me,” Slauson said. ”The other team has to do it also. Recovery is key. Getting your rest is key. Trying to work out whatever soreness you’ve got from the previous game. It’s really important to stay up on your body. But shoot, I want to play every day.” Injury update: The Bears had to release an injury report even though they didn’t have a practice. If they had, these players would not have participated: Eddie Royal (knee), Ka’Deem Carey (concussion), Martellus Bennett (ribs), Sherrod Martin (neck) and Antrel Rolle (knee). Coach John Fox confirmed Rolle tweaked his knee at Saturday’s walkthrough, causing him to miss Sunday’s game. Alshon Jeffery (groin), Marquess Wilson (groin), Matt Forte (knee), Pernell McPhee (knee), Jarvis Jenkins (chest) and LaRoy Reynolds (knee) would have been limited.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Tom Brady called out Rex Ryan, and then he beat the Bills – again. After shouting the name of the Buffalo coach as an audible, Brady led New England to a 20-13 victory over the Bills on Monday night and kept the defending Super Bowl champions on course for their second perfect regular season in nine years. Brady completed 20 of 39 passes for 277 yards, hitting James White for a 20-yard score that was the first touchdown of the running back’s career. White added a 6-yard run in the third quarter to give New England (10-0) the lead for good. Buffalo’s LeSean McCoy ran 20 times for 82 yards and a 27-yard touchdown and caught six passes for 41 yards to surpass 100 yards from scrimmage for the fourth straight game. The Bills (5-5) snapped a two-game winning streak and lost to Brady for the 25th time in 28 games.

The game was filled with mistakes, penalties, injuries and turnovers – including two fumbles on a single punt, a rare missed field goal by Stephen Gostkowski and an inadvertent whistle that led to one of many lengthy conferences among the officials. And New England lost another key player: Danny Amendola, who took over as the Patriots’ No. 1 receiver because of last week’s injury to Julian Edelman, caught nine passes for 117 yards before leaving with a knee injury of his own in the third quarter. With the wind chill temperature at 21 degrees at kickoff, both teams struggled on offense. The Patriots even failed to score in the fourth quarter. In the third quarter, both teams fumbled on the same punt. Leodis McKelvin fielded a punt at his own 30 yard-line and made it just 2 yards before the ball was knocked out by Brandon King. New England’s Jonathan Freeny picked up the ball and rumbled 5 yards before he lost the ball and it bounced out of bounds.

Bears receivers made some big plays, but mostly on broken routes • ARKUSH Continued from page C1 Receivers Marquess Wilson and Josh Bellamy piled up yards, but most of it was on broken plays. Without Alshon Jeffery and Eddie Royal, these guys just don’t run good enough routes or get enough separation to allow Cutler any rhythm in the passing game. They get a B- for the big broken plays.

In spite of the run game problems, the offensive line was B-, doing a better than average job against the NFL’s best pass rush. Not surprisingly, Kyle Long and Matt Slauson stick out on the tape. Unfortunately Hroniss Grasu struggled in his return from injury and looks to have either missed an assignment or missed the call on the failed 2-point try to tie the game. The Bears’ front seven on defense was trashed by the

540 E Terra Cotta Ave Crystal Lake, IL 60012 815-444-0214 716 Northwest Highway, Cary, IL 60013 847-516-1000

Broncos’ 29th-ranked running game, allowing the Broncos to go off for 170 yards. But Bruce Gaston destroyed All Pro guard Evan Mathis for his first sack, and Willie Young appears to be learning the outside linebacker spot. Those two flashed several times on the tape and were probably B’s, while the rest of the group was a C-. Pernell McPhee was clearly limited by his knee, and Shea McClellin just doesn’t make

enough plays. Kyle Fuller made a couple of really nice tackles, and Tracy Porter is just really good and did a great job on Demaryius Thomas after the early touchdown on a blown coverage I can’t really identify on the tape. It’s clearly blown, but I’m not sure by whom. The secondary was a C+. Special teams were fine but not special, probably a B-. Finally, there were the coaches and their game plan.

John Fox’s decision to go on fourth-and-4 was horrendous with 10:03 left in the game. The Bears are 28th in the league in red zone touchdown efficiency, 42.4 percent on the season and 35.7 percent in their past three games. The “check-with-me” the Bears ran on the failed 2-point conversion was also a terrible call by Adam Gase and a terrible decision by Cutler. A run option from the shotgun at the 2-yard line makes no

sense. Throw in all those missed assignments and communications, and the Bears coaching staff was indeed hot and trending up before Sunday but picked its revenge game to throw out its first clunker since Detroit. • Chicago Football editor Hub Arkush can be reached at harkush@chicagofootball.com or on Twitter @Hub_Arkush.

SPORTS BRIEFS Kettle corn sales to help Woodstock N.’s Kemp

Illini beat buzzer to escape with win

Kountry Kettle Corn, a local company that sells tins of popcorn, will donate 15 percent of its sales to Woodstock North senior Wolfgang Kemp and his father, Wilbur, this month. Kemp and his father are without permanent residence and are staying in the McHenry County Public Action to Deliver Shelter in Woodstock. A story on Kemp, who played football for Woodstock North, ran in the Northwest Herald in September and inspired many people, who have aided Kemp and his father with monetary gifts and other items. Kountry Kettle Corn wanted to help as well. Jeff Nieman, whose family owns the business, said they also were inspired by Wolfgang’s positive attitude and perseverance. Nieman, a Marian Central graduate, teaches and coaches at Dundee-Crown. Nieman said anyone interested in purchasing a tin, which costs $20, can do so at the website kkcorn.com, then by clicking “Contact Us” to fill out the form and submit. He asks that people type “Wolfgang” in the subject line. They would like to have orders confirmed by Dec. 10 for delivery Dec. 22.

Carew, 70, hopes to get heart transplant

MINNEAPOLIS – Baseball Hall of Famer Rod Carew is hoping to qualify for a heart transplant after a massive heart attack two months ago. The 70-year-old Carew told Sports Illustrated he was stricken while golfing alone in Corona, California, on Sept. 20. He told the magazine “they brought me back to life.” He underwent six hours of open heart surgery in which a device that pumps blood was implanted. The device typically acts as a bridge until a heart transplant. Carew was one of baseball’s great hitters, winning seven American League batting titles. He played for the Minnesota Twins and California Angels during a 19-year career.

Roberts named Dodgers’ first minority manager

LOS ANGELES – Dave Roberts overcame long odds during his playing days in the major leagues and survived a bout with cancer in recent years. He had no managerial experience when he went after the vacant Los Angeles Dodgers’ job. Fittingly, the personable Roberts beat the odds again, impressing the front office with his energy, enthusiasm and knowledge to become the Dodgers’ first minority manager. Los Angeles said Monday it plans to introduce the 43-yearold at a news conference Dec. 1. Roberts’ father is black and his mother is Japanese.

Trainer fined for use of thyroid drug on horses

ALBANY, N.Y. – New York regulators have fined one of horse racing’s winningest trainers and said they were pursuing new equine drug regulations after a probe into abuse allegations by an animal-rights group. The New York State Gaming Commission said Monday its investigation sustained 14 allegations made by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals against trainer Steve Asmussen, his assistant Scott Blasi and others during the 2013 Saratoga Race Course meet. The commission issued a $10,000 fine to Asmussen for giving horses a thyroid hormone within 48 hours of racing. Thyroid hormone is used to boost metabolism in horses with thyroid deficiency, but trainers use it to enhance performance in horses that aren’t deficient. The proposed regulations are aimed at stopping trainers from giving horses drugs strictly to enhance performance.

Butler: Effort lacking

SPRINGFIELD – Jalen Coleman-Lands sank a 3-pointer from the corner at the buzzer, allowing Illinois to escape with an 82-79 victory over Chicago State on Monday night. Michael Finke scored 17 to lead Illinois (2-3). The Illini needed a 14-0 run in the second half to tie it the score at 66 and then needed the game’s final possession to steal the win. After Chicago State (3-2) was called for a shot clock violation with 4.6 seconds left, Illinois rushed the ball up the court to find Coleman-Lands open in the corner. Coleman-Lands, Malcolm Hill and Michael Thorne Jr. scored 12 apiece for the Illini. Elliott Cole had 21 points to lead Chicago State. The Cougars led by 14 in both halves. Illinois won all 11 previous meetings with Chicago State by an average of 29 points. The Illini weren’t too concerned with style points. They just needed a win. Illinois was already off to its worst start in 50 years. Another loss would have tied the school record for the worst start after five games. Chicago State made it difficult, building a 40-26 lead in the first half. The Cougars led the final 10 minutes of the opening half and didn’t trail again until the closing moments. Illinois grabbed a 77-75 lead on Thorne’s basket.

Guard: We can’t blame losses on who’s missing By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com PORTLAND, Ore. – Jimmy Butler is just fine with the personnel surrounding him. Talent level has never been the culprit in too many slow starts and disappointing nights, even going back to last season. But the effort and energy have to change because, as Butler acknowledged, the window on this group is a lot closer to slamming shut than staying open. “I just think that, at times, we take for granted how talented we are as a whole and with all the guys on this roster,” Butler said after practice Monday. “We think we can just go through the motions at the beginning of a game, dig ourselves a little hole and just pick it up at any point, and it doesn’t work like that. “You gotta come out from the jump and try to beat a team for the whole 48 minutes. I think we’ve been really good from the start these last few games and come up short in a few, but I think if we keep

Next Bulls at Portland, 9 p.m. Tuesday, WGN-TV, AM-1000 pushing, keep playing hard all the time, we’re going to win games.” Also, too many excuses have been made over the years, be it injury, off-the-court drama or a coaching transition. Butler wants the focus on the final score and the standings. “We can’t blame losses on, ‘We didn’t have this guy,’ ” Butler said. “We’re all NBA players; we’re all supposed to be able to win games for this ballclub.” Still, the Bulls entered the week tied for the second-best record in the Eastern Conference at 8-4 and will get Derrick Rose (left ankle sprain) back for the game Tuesday against the Trail Blazers. Aaron Brooks (hamstring) and Mike Dunleavy (back surgery) also are getting healthier. Coach Fred Hoiberg is still trying to get his playbook fully installed, but the X’s and O’s are being figured out.

The arrow seems to be pointing up. But if this group is not putting forth the right energy and effort on a game-to-game basis, it will mean little in May. “It’s tough to bring the best effort every night,” Pau Gasol said. “That’s kind of the challenge and the difference also between really good teams, OK teams and bad teams. “The teams that understand the importance of each and every night understand that it’s hard because it’s an 82-game season, there’s traveling involved and some nights you might not have it the way you want to, but you just got to do it if you want to win, if you want to be a different team. You’ve got to be consistent.” That starts and ends with the players. A coach can help the process, but it all falls on the five who take the court. “I don’t think we bring that fight every night,” Butler said. “I think we’re starting to get back to that, but early on, we weren’t the hardest-playing team every night. We always need to and have to be the hardest-playing team.”

Wake Forest 82, No. 13 Indiana 78: At Lahaina, Hawaii, Bryant

Crawford’s driving layup with 3.2 seconds to play gave Wake Forest the lead, and the Demon Deacons beat Indiana in the opening round of the Maui Jim Maui Invitational. Crawford had the ball at the head of the key for about eight seconds before he put his down and drove to the basket to give Wake Forest (3-1) the lead for good. After Indiana turned the ball over on a long pass, John Collins made two free throws for the final margin. Wake Forest will face No. 19 Vanderbilt, a 92-55 winner over St. John’s, in the semifinals Tuesday. Indiana (3-1) led 75-67 with 4:50 left, but the Demon Deacons went on a 9-2 run to take a 78-77 lead.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL: NO. 9 NORTH CAROLINA 80, NORTHWESTERN 69

Tar Heels lose top ranking, beat ’Cats By DAVE SKRETTA The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Justin Jackson had 21 points and 13 rebounds to lead a balanced effort for ninth-ranked North Carolina, which bounced back from a surprising loss over the weekend to beat Northwestern, 80-69, Monday night in the CBE Classic semifinals. Kennedy Meeks and Joel Berry II added 12 points apiece, and Theo Pinson, Isaiah Hicks and Brice Johnson each had 10 for the Tar Heels (4-1), who tumbled from their top spot in the AP poll earlier in the day after their 71-67 loss at Northern Iowa. North Carolina will play Kansas State for the tournament title Tuesday night. Tre Demps led the Wildcats (3-1) with 21 points, including 10 straight for his team during a second-half charge that trimmed North Carolina’s lead to 48-46 with 17:20 left. But unlike their game against the Panthers, when the Tar Heels allowed a 29-8 second-half run to put them on the ropes, Jackson and Pinson made sure to answer the Northwestern salvo. Jackson started it off with a basket at the other end,

and Pinson knocked down a 3, before Jackson made two foul shots. Nate Britt hit his own 3 moments later, and a basket by Berry capped a 12-2 run that forced Northwestern coach Chris Collins to call timeout. The Tar Heels stretched their lead to 20 later in the second half before Northwestern made a brief run in the closing minutes, making the final score look a bit more respectable. Alex Olah contributed 10 points for the Wildcats, while leading scorer Bryant McIntosh – who had a career-best 32 against Columbia – managed 14 points on only 3-for-15 shooting. The Tar Heels once again played without Marcus Paige, who broke a bone in his right hand Nov. 3. The senior All-American has been sitting on the North Carolina bench, but the school has yet to indicate when he may be cleared to return to action.

Northwestern takes on Missouri in the tournament’s third-place game. North Carolina plays Kansas State for its first CBE Classic championship.

By MARK LAZERUS Through one quarter of the season, the Blackhawks sit in fifth place in the ultra-competitive Central Division. They’ve impressively beaten the likes of Tampa Bay and St. Louis, and they’ve meekly lost to the likes of Philadelphia and Calgary. They have the best line in hockey and little else. They survived almost a month without Duncan Keith, with a rookie on every defensive pairing. They’ve rotated 13 new players in the lineup without stumbling too badly. So how do the Hawks feel a quarter of the way through the season? Meh. “Bumpy,” coach Joel Quenneville said. “Up and down,” forward Patrick Kane said. “We can be better,” general manager Stan Bowman said. Of course, it all starts with Kane, the NHL’s leading scorer with 13 goals and 19 assists through 21 games. His line, with the league’s top rookie, Artemi Panarin, and the suddenly prolific Artem Anisiov, has been carrying the Hawks all season, accounting for 29 of the team’s 57 goals. In early August, Kane’s status for the season was in serious doubt as he became the subject of a police investigation into a sexual-assault allegation made in Western New York. The investigation – which yielded no charges – kept Kane off the ice for most of the offseason, and weighed heavily on him and the team in the early weeks of the season. Kane’s teammates stood by him and tried their best to keep everything inside the dressing room and on the ice as normal as possible. “You can always sit there and worry about the worst-case scenario, but I don’t think that is really going to change anything,” captain Jonathan Toews said. “So worrying and dwelling on something that’s out of your control can just kind of can make things spiral out of control and make things worse in your own mind. I think Kaner’s done an unbelievable job of dealing with all of the things that have been said about

FOOTBALL Blackhawks center Artem Anisimov (from left) celebrates with right wing Patrick Kane and left wing Artemi Panarin after scoring a goal in the third period against the Edmonton Oilers on Nov. 8 at the United Center. him, and focusing on the things he’s had to do.” Kane repeatedly has called hockey his “getaway” from his off-ice troubles. “It’s almost like after school or something, when you don’t want to worry about your homework, you get to go play with your friends,” he said. “That’s kind of what the feeling has been for me, just getting away from everything, playing hockey, doing something I love to do. I’ve just been enjoying it more than ever.” That’s an indelicate way of discussing something as serious as a sexual-assault allegation, but if you strip away the outside world and just focus on hockey – something many are still understandably having a difficult time doing – and Kane is having an MVP-type season in the most unlikely of years. And without him, the Hawks might be already looking at a lost season. “We’re going to have to play better,” Quenneville said. “[We need] a little more balance to our team.

We’ve had one line that’s been freaking out and fun to watch, but more consistency is what we’re looking to get.” There’s reason for optimism. The return of Keith and Michal Rozsival has stabilized the defense, and Viktor Svedberg and Erik Gustafsson have proved the Hawks have depth on the back end. There are signs that slumping scorers such as Marian Hossa, Andrew Shaw and Ryan Garbutt are finding their grooves. And despite the Central being the best division in hockey, only Dallas is really running away at this point. Despite all their struggles, the Hawks are only four points behind the second-place Blues. They need to be better. But it could be a whole lot worse. “It’s just a really tight league,” Bowman said. “You’re a three-game winning streak from being in the top five in the league, and you’re a threegame losing streak from being in the bottom third.”

COMMUNITY RUNNING HILLSTRIDERS RUNNING CLUB THANKSGIVING DAY 5K RUN/ WALK TURKEY TROT The run at 8 a.m. Thanksgiving Day at Lippold Park benefits the Crystal Lake Food Pantry. This is a family event that is now in its 14th year and a great way to start the Thanksgiving holiday and burn a few calories before the feasting begins. It began with 75 participants in the inaugural year and last year over 1,000 runners and walkers came out. We were able to donate as much as 4,000 pounds of food and $5,000 in cash to stock the CL Food pantry and benefit local families in need. There is no entry fee or pre registration required. We simply ask that people bring non perishable food items or cash donations to support the Food Pantry. Cash donations are especially beneficial because the CL Food Pantry is able to purchase more food with their dollars than the general public due to subsidies etc. We will accept all food items, cash or check (made out to Crystal Lake Food pantry) on the morning of the race. We do ask that participants sign a release form which can be downloaded from the Hillstriders web site hillstriders.com, picked up at the Running Depot store, or prior to the race at the park on Thanksgiving Day morning. The Running Depot has offered a gift certificate for the overall male and female winner. Contact Bob Walsh at (815) 715-3855 or Jerry Sullivan at (815) 245-5122 for any further info.

U2 RESCHEDULES PARIS CONCERT AFTER ATTACKS

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Tuesday, November 24, 2015 • Section C • Page 6

NEW YORK – U2 has rescheduled two shows in Paris postponed after the Nov. 13 attacks in the city. In a statement Monday, frontman Bono promised the band would “put on our best for Paris.” From Dublin, Bono said the gunmen and bombers who killed 130 people “took lives, took music, took peace of mind – but they couldn’t steal the spirit of that city. It’s a spirit our band knows well and will try to serve when we return for the postponed shows.” U2 had been due to play Paris Nov. 14 and 15; the new concerts were scheduled for Dec. 6 and 7. Tickets for the canceled shows will be valid for the rescheduled dates.

1D wins big at AMAs; Dion pays tribute to Paris victims

L.A. Clippers’ dance squad to get reality TV series

One Direction may have debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard charts behind Justin Bieber, but they won the top award – artist of the year – at Sunday’s American Music Awards. “This is a testament to how incredible our fans are,” Louis Tomlinson said onstage at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. “We just want to thank everyone that’s helped us in the last five years,” Liam Payne added. The band won artist of the year at last year’s show – as a quintet with Zayn Malik. They also won favorite duo or group-pop/rock on Sunday night. Bieber, who won best collaboration with Diplo and Skrillex, closed the night with a medley of his hits, including “Sorry,” “Where Are U Now” and “What Do You Mean.” Purple laser lights beamed from the stage as the singer danced and sang for the loud audience. He ended it drenched after standing under a waterfall. Billboard announced Sunday that his new album, “Purpose,” will debut at No. 1 on its charts Monday after selling 649,000 equivalent albums. It beat out One Direction’s “Made in the A.M.,” which sold 459,000 equivalent albums. Bieber’s performance wasn’t the only well-received one: Celine Dion paid tribute to the victims of the recent Paris attacks by singing Edith Piaf’s “Hymne à l’amour” in French as some audience members cried. Jared Leto, who introduced Dion, said his band, 30 Seconds to Mars, recently performed at the Bataclan, the Paris concert hall where 89 people were killed in the Nov. 13 attack.

PARAMUS, N.J. – Rapper Fetty Wap gave fans a run for his money this weekend, tossing wads of cash over a balcony at a New Jersey mall to the delight of screaming onlookers. Videos posted to social media show the Paterson native throwing money Saturday as he walked through the Garden State Plaza mall in Paramus. The rapper posted on Twitter that he was so happy to be shopping with his daughter that he threw $2,000 to fans. He tweeted: “never no who needed it.” Wap’s real name is Willie Maxwell. He’s had a breakthrough year with multiple hits, including the pop smash “Trap Queen.” His self-titled debut came in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart this month, and his other Top 10 pop hits include “679” and “My Way.”

LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Clippers’ dance squad is getting its own reality series. E! Entertainment said Monday the series that is scheduled to debut early next year will show what it’s like to be a member of the squad on and off the court. Eight one-hour episodes of “L.A. Clippers Dance Squad” are scheduled to air on the cable network. The show will take viewers through summer auditions to choose the squad and the dancers’ emotions and ambitions. Among the producers of the series is Cash Warren, husband of actress Jessica Alba and whose father, Mike Warren, starred at UCLA under basketball coach John Wooden. The show is produced by Mandalay Sports Media, whose co-founder is Peter Guber, a part-owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

NEW YORK – Some beloved creatures by children’s’ book author Eric Carle – including a certain hungry caterpillar – are headed to a New York stage next year.

The show is targeted to children from age 3 to 7. Tickets are $49.50 to $65.50. The show debuted at the Sydney Festival in Australia in January.

SUDOKU

TODAY - First impressions are important. Promote your skills with finesse. A knowledgeable, dedicated approach will dispel any fear you may harbor when taking on extra challenges. Project a positive image to receive a good response. Being unprepared or ill-informed will be your downfall this year. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- A little romance will brighten your day. It’s better to spend your energy pleasing others rather than letting life’s little annoyances lead to a dispute. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You should stop complaining about your life and start taking action. You will receive encouragement from an unexpected source if you decide to take a stand regarding some unexpected changes. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Don’t let self-doubt stand in the way of your progress. It’s time to consider what you hope to accomplish by year’s end and to put the finishing touches on any current projects. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- A promotion is within reach. Be open to new employment possibilities that are not in your current area of expertise. Your hard work and diligence will pay off. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Celebrate by hosting a gathering of friends and colleagues for some light entertainment. Make sure you stick to your budget so that unnecessary expenses don’t leave you broke. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Overspending or overindulging will take a toll on your health. Loved ones will feel left out if you don’t include them in your plans. Nurture important relationships. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A partnership will go downhill if you are not honest regarding your intentions. You will be left taking the blame for someone else’s actions if you aren’t careful. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Someone you meet at a social event will have something to offer professionally or personally. If you need assistance, don’t hesitate to call in favors from someone you have helped in the past. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Be truthful about what you can and cannot do. Don’t embellish your talents to others, or your reputation will suffer. Avoid gambling. Children will play a role in a decision you make. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Lessen your anxiety by tackling projects you can work on by yourself. Trying to get along with others will add to your stress. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You need a change, but making some residential improvements could be costly if you don’t get estimates up front. Make sure you get everything in writing or your savings will be depleted. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Standing on the sidelines will not get you ahead. If you let everyone know that you are willing to accept greater responsibility, offers will come your way. Love is highlighted.

ADVICE 5

Jailed addict needs release Changes in larynx cause boys’ from his low self-esteem voices to crack during puberty Dear Abby: I’m 23 years old and in the county jail. I’m gay and also an addict, having battled a heroin addiction for the past five years. I managed to stay clean for almost two years. During that time, I enrolled in college, got engaged, regained the respect of my family and started to have a normal life. Things were going very well for me, and then I relapsed. I threw everything away. Abby, I need to know why, when things go well for me, I feel as if I don’t deserve to be happy so I self-destruct. I have absolutely no self-confidence. I’m very unhappy. Even when I seem to get what I want, it turns out to be not exactly what I wanted in the end. How can I fix this? I really do want to be happy; I just don’t know how. – Unhappy Man In Indiana, Pennsylvania Dear Unhappy: Your arrest

may have been a blessing in disguise. It has given you time to think clearly about why you are in this situation. Because you now recognize what your issues are, you already have started on a path to healing. You say you dislike yourself and your self-esteem is very low. This might be the reason you sabotage yourself when things start going well

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips for you. After your release, a licensed psychotherapist can help you find the answers you’re looking for. Your nearest LGBT community center would be a good place to start. Because you slipped up once doesn’t mean you will do it again, so stop beating yourself up and try to think positively. I wish you luck and a successful future. Dear Abby: I met “Gil” a year ago. He was one of the nicest men I’d ever met. At the time, I didn’t realize he was a mama’s boy. But after we started to talk, I noticed he would repeat everything to his mother. We discussed it and it stopped, but that’s when his mom started treating me differently. I’m pretty sure he told her what I had said. Gil loves my cooking and has told me I cook like she does. I don’t know if that’s so good. I really like him, but I don’t know if I can handle his being such a mama’s boy. If he could cut the apron strings, we could have a great relationship. He treats me like a queen. He respects me, never

says an unkind word and compliments me often. But if I plan a meal for him and then his mom decides she wants him at her house, he cancels on me because he doesn’t want to hurt her feelings. Gil is 51 and hasn’t been in a serious relationship in several years. I’m falling in love with him and don’t want to lose him. What do I do, and how do I handle this? – Com-

Dear Dr. K: My son is 14, and his voice has started to change. Why does this happen? Dear Reader: Your son is going through puberty. A change in his voice is just one of several changes in this phase of life. The first thing that generally happens to a boy during puberty is his testicles begin to get larger and to make testosterone. Then, the penis begins to grow and sexual hair begins to appear. He will become more muscular. He will have more frequent erections, become capable of making sperm and thus become fertile. Boys undergo a growth spurt during puberty. The bones get longer and then wider. Along with the growth of muscles and bones, there is an even greater growth in the amount of body fat. As a result, body fat becomes a greater fraction of total body weight during puberty. There also are changes in the heart and blood vessels. Boys develop a greater aerobic capacity, and blood pressure rises slightly. The reason much of this happens is, in part, rising levels of testosterone. In particular, the increase in

ing In Second In Missouri Dear Coming In Second: Your

mistake is trying to compete with Gil’s mother because you can’t win. The woman who snags Gil will have to accept they are a package deal. Not many women these days are willing to accept that, which might be why Gil hasn’t had a serious relationship in years. However, if you are the exception, the way to handle this would be to cultivate (and ingratiate yourself with) his mother. Find out what her favorite flowers are and send them with a sweet note, invite her to join you and Gil for dinner and movies – and if she offers suggestions about your cooking, accept them gracefully. I wish you luck. • Write Dear Abby at www.

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff this hormone causes changes in the larynx, or voice box. That’s what is causing the change in his voice. The larynx is located in the throat at the top of the trachea, or windpipe. The larynx contains the vocal cords, two tiny muscles. These two muscles tighten and relax to change how air passes through the larynx. When you raise or lower the pitch of your voice, it is the tightness of the vocal cords that causes the pitch to change. So, changes in the larynx or vocal cords affect your voice. During puberty, testosterone causes a boy’s larynx to get bigger. The vocal cords also lengthen and thicken in response to testosterone. Just as the shortest strings on a harp or piano make the highest sounds, the short vocal cords of children produce voices that are high in pitch. The longer cords of adult males produce lowerpitched voices. As the larynx and vocal cords are going through this

growth phase, the changes can cause the voice to “crack.” The change of voice can happen quickly; over only a few weeks or months, the voice begins to crack and then becomes deeper and more resonant. As girls go through puberty, their vocal cords also lengthen. But the growth is more modest, so their voice changes are not as noticeable. If a boy does not go through puberty because of a deficiency of testosterone, his voice will remain high. In fact, in 16th-, 17th- and 18th-century Italy, young boys with a talent for singing operatic or religious music sometimes were castrated. The resulting failure of testosterone levels to rise preserved the high pitch of the boys’ voices into adulthood. There’s nothing a boy can do to prevent his voice from cracking as he goes through puberty. If it is making your son uncomfortable, remind him this happens to all teenage boys and will pass soon enough. • Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

‘Pothead’ enjoys being high and plans to continue illegal habit Dr. Wallace: I’ve been reading your column for several years, and I know you always encourage teens not to smoke marijuana and try to scare them into stopping their “dangerous” habits. I’ve been a pothead for the past five years. I have enjoyed every single joint I’ve smoked, and nothing has happened to me. I get an unbelievable high, and it gives me true peace to smoke it. I have no plans to quit, so I’ll be smoking pot until the day I die. It’s really ridiculous vodka, gin and whiskey are all legal in all states in the U.S. However, smoking marijuana is illegal in most states, and if caught smoking it in my state, the

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Dr. Robert Wallace user is labeled a criminal and might even serve jail time. I can’t understand why so many people in the U.S. consider marijuana so harmful to the human body. Can you explain the medical and emotional dangers of smoking a joint? I am a college grad and I have an excellent job in a large Utah city, but I have to keep my use of marijuana a secret or risk losing my job. It doesn’t hurt anyone, but that’s the way it is. – Nameless, Utah

consumed two packs a day for 20 years. Smoke one marijuana cigarette and it won’t hurt you physically. Smoke a few joints in a year – no harm. Smoke marijuana regularly – things are looking worrisome. Smoke marijuana every day – things are looking grim.” Dr. Wallace: Our family moved to Bullhead City from Phoenix four months ago, and this move has caused a lot of problems for me. I’m 16 and in the 11th grade, but in this small town all the “popular” kids have grown up with each other and have been friends since kindergarten. It’s as if they have their own “club” and no new members are allowed.

Nameless: I am not a medical doctor, so I can’t tell you the medical and emotional damages, if any, that are the results of smoking marijuana on a regular basis. But marijuana smoke fills the lungs of the user with every deep drag, and common sense tells us smoking any substance (tobacco, dried corn silk, marijuana or any other substance) is unhealthy. According to Life Skills Education in Northfield, Minnesota, “Those who smoked 10 joints or more in a week for five years or more were found to have similar swelling, redness and changes in lung cells as that found in cigarette smokers who had

There are other kids, but some of them are real “losers” and some have shady reputations. My parents are savvy and are aware of the situation, and are upset if I hang out with some of them. I don’t smoke, drink or do drugs, but I don’t see what’s wrong with overlooking these bad habits in some of the kids I hang around with. I don’t want to be the only guy in the 11th grade who has no friends. What can I do to get my parents to understand I would never indulge in these kids’ habits, and going to a football game with them isn’t going to cause me to join them. – Name-

less, Bullhead City, Arizona Nameless: Making friends

at a new school isn’t easy, but you don’t need to resort to joining this shady crowd just to have a social life. There are probably many students who are not in the “snob clique” and don’t get involved with alcohol, tobacco or drugs. You just might not have met them yet. I suggest you seek out and join a few clubs and start taking part in after-school activities that interest you. Meanwhile, your parents are right. You’re inviting trouble into your life if you keep hanging around with kids who do drugs and drink alcohol. • Write to Dr. Wallace at rwallace@galesburg.net.
