County sets employee handgun rules With new proposal, concealed weapons would not be allowed while on the clock

In the wake of concealed carry taking effect in the coming months, the McHenry County Board is setting down rules forbidding employees who are not law enforcement from carrying handguns during their official duties.

Under the proposed rules, county

employees and volunteers will not be able to carry concealed weapons while on the clock, store them in county-owned vehicles or use their private vehicles for county business if they contain firearms.

The law already forbids carrying a concealed weapon into govern-

Brokers voice growing frustration with system

By KELLI KENNEDY The Associated Press MIAMI – When insurance agent Kelly Fristoe recently spent 30 minutes helping a client pick a mid-level health plan and the federal marketplace website froze, he called the government’s hotline and tried to finish the application.

But the operator refused to credit Fristoe as an agent on the application, meaning he wouldn’t get the commission or be listed as the follow-up contact if his client needed help again later.

The Wichita Falls, Texas, insurance agent is one of many brokers around the country finding frustration as they try to help customers navigate the Affordable Care Act’s marketplaces while earning the commissions they’ve long built their businesses around.

Some insurers and insurance agents are calling on President Barack Obama’s administration to allow them to bypass healthcare.gov and enroll consumers directly amid growing complaints about problems with enrollment information generated from the website.

The so-called “back-end” problems could mean that consumers who think they’ve successfully signed up for a health plan, may find themselves unable to access their coverage come January. The problems include enrollment information that’s

Banksy mural fetches $209K at Calif. auction BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. – A mural stenciled on the side of a Hollywood gas station five years ago by the British street artist Banksy has fetched more than $200,000 at a Beverly Hills auction.

The 9-by-8 foot “Flower Girl” artwork sold for $209,000 Thursday at an auction that featured nearly 100 works by more than 30 artists, according to the Los Angeles Times. The winning bid came from a Los Angeles buyer who requested anonymity.

The seller of the mural was Eytan Rosenberg, a former gas station owner who allowed a group of three street artists to paint something on the business’s white brick wall.

Rosenberg sold the gas station last year and painstakingly removed the artwork and installed it in a sturdy aluminum frame. He and his sister want to use the money from the sale to build a car wash.

Banksy, who refuses to reveal his full identity, began his career spray-painting buildings in Bristol, England. He’s known for his silhouetted figures and spray-painted messages.

Northwest Herald Web Poll Question

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich.

– For more than a decade, people walking along Great Lakes beaches have come upon a heartrending sight: dozens, or even hundreds, of dead loons, gulls and other waterfowl – victims of food poisoning that paralyzed their muscles and eventually caused them to drown.

Scientists have long known the primary cause is Type E botulism, which the U.S. Geological Survey says may have killed 100,000 birds in the region since 2000. They have ideas, but no proof, about how the toxin works its way up the food chain.

Now, using time-tested methods and new technologies, they’re coming closer to solving the mystery – a crucial step toward determining whether anything can be done to prevent future dieoffs.

Florida Atlantic University recently reported progress in a first-of-its-kind effort to determine the paths of birds that washed onto beaches after dying in open water. Experts with the university’s Institute for Ocean Systems Engineering placed stuffed bird carcasses into a laboratory tank and took water resistance measurements.

The information will be combined with current and wind data in computer models that attempt to retrace the birds’ floating routes.

Meanwhile, several USGS labs are studying waterfowl distribution and sampling sediments collected from Great Lakes bottomlands, hoping to pinpoint where the toxin is produced. Initial findings suggest loons and other species that plunge into

Gulls huddle on Beach Street along the Lake Michigan shoreline March 19 near Muskegon, Mich. For more than a decade, scientists have struggled to figure out what’s behind a rising number of Great Lakes waterfowl deaths from Type E botulism, a neuromuscular disease caused by eating contaminated fish.

“It’s kind of like a detective story. You find a body somewhere. You want to find out where the incident took place. You look for clues on the body, you find a piece of hair, a piece of fiber, and trace it back to the location and hopefully find your culprit.”

“We haven’t got there yet, but we’re getting closer,” said Stephen Riley, a fishery biologist with the USGS Great Lakes Science Center in Ann Arbor.

What scientists consider the most plausible theory involves several environmental villains, including invasive species, climate change and nutrient runoff from farms and sewers.

If researchers can nail down where and how the poisonings are happening, they could look for ways to prevent the toxin from being produced or to keep birds away from danger zones. Regulators could step up efforts to reduce phosphorus runoff near botulism hot spots, Blehert said.

8LOCAL BRIEF

8ON THE RECORD WITH ...

Woodstock accident sends 9 to the hospital

Scott Rusch WOODSTOCK – Psychology will have to wait. Scott Rusch is trusting his voice.

The Woodstock native and Woodstock High School graduate has grown up around music. He used to watch his dad, Paul Rausch, a music teacher at Woodstock High School, play piano, guitar and sing.

Now Rusch, 21 years old and technically still a Rausch, wants to turn what has been a lifelong interest into a full-on career as a performer.

Between psychology classes – for which he’ll earn a degree this spring – Rusch has been singing with the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign a capella group Xtension Chords since freshman year.

A friend from that group helped get Rusch into a studio earlier this year, and a young music career was born.

Rusch’s “Hey Girl” – available on iTunes – has garnered more than 33,000 views on YouTube, a modest but significant push that has Rusch ready to give music a go.

Reporter Shawn Shinneman recently caught up with Rusch to talk about the influences of his father, the support of his at-first leery family, and whether the college senior is considering the reality TV singing competition route to stardom.

Shinneman: So tell me about your song, “Hey Girl,” kind of how that came together, and about going down to Nashville to put that on record.

Rusch: We took a trip down to Nashville and met

The Rusch lowdown:

started, but I just wasn’t supposed to talk about the audition process.

But I got through, basically, most of the audition process. So I was very close to being on the show ... it didn’t end up working out. But I’ve definitely kept that in mind for the future.

n Hometown: Woodstock n Age: 21 n Twitter: @ScottRuschMusic n Family: Parents, Paul and Donna Rausch; and brothers, Chris, 26, Steven, 24, and Daniel, 19 n Favorite album: “The 20/20 Experience,” Justin Timberlake n Favorite movie: “Crazy, Stupid, Love” with a couple writers and collaborators and came up with, “Hey Girl.”

It was a pretty fun process. We were just sitting in a room. ... He basically said, while playing a chord progression, “Ok, I’ll give you five seconds. You have to think of a catchy chorus.

Keep it short, under 10 seconds, and 5, 4, 3...’

He finally got to one and started playing again, and I came up with the chorus of, “Hey Girl,” on the spot. And then we kind of wrote the song around the chorus with that tone.

Shinneman: How much did your dad influence your interests growing up?

Rusch: Growing up in a musical family, I basically started singing right when I started talking. ... Seeing my dad play piano, and play guitar and sing, I just kind of wanted to follow in those footsteps, but go along with the performance route instead of the teaching.

Shinneman: Is he cool with dropping the “a” in your last name? Does your family have any reservations about that?

Rusch: We had some talent

Shinneman: Where do you see yourself? Since you’re graduating in May, not only down the road five, 10 years, but even in the next year or so – what’s the plan?

Rusch: I think at this point

Photo provided

Scott Rusch, 21, has decided to give a career in music a try after his song “Hey Girl,” had 33,000 views on YouTube. managers or producers look at some different options for the most appealing stage name to an unfamiliar audience.

We talked with them and they gave us a whole explanation as to, we were going to take “y” off of Scotty and then take the “a” out of Rausch. It made a lot of sense.

I trusted their decision with that.

I called [my dad] up not really knowing how he was going to feel about it, although he understands that it’s a business.

Looking at the music industry and the entertainment industry, it’s surprising to see how many people go by different names.

Are You Looking For A New You In 2014?

But he understands. I’ll always be a Rausch to him.

Shinneman: So have you considered – or maybe you’ve already tried out for – any of the talent shows? American Idol, The Voice, things like that?

Rusch: I tried out for The Voice over the summer and I got pretty far through the audition process.

Thing is, I’m not sure how much I’m supposed to talk about the audition process because I got to the point where I had to sign confidentiality agreements.

Shinneman: Has the season not aired?

Rusch: No, the season

my plan is to look at moving to Nashville after I graduate and try to pursue music down there.

That’s what I truly want to do, and I feel like at this point with the success of “Hey Girl” and how much hype and exposure it’s gotten, it’s a good decision at this point. I can always go back and go to grad school or focus on psychology down the road if this doesn’t end up working out.

But I don’t think I could live with myself if I didn’t at least try to do something in the music industry.

Shinneman: Does that make your parents nervous?

Rusch: I think at first they were a little bit hesitant, and understandably so. I went from having this whole plan of this psychology job, and kind of throwing that out the window.

But I think after the song came out and after the video was released, they saw that this is what I really want to be doing, and that it makes me happy. And that makes them happy right now.

WOODSTOCK – A head-on collision along Route 14 in Woodstock on Sunday sent nine people to the hospital, including three in critical condition.

Woodstock Fire Rescue and police responded at 1:23 p.m. to a two-vehicle accident along Route 14, between Doty Road and Lily Pond Road. Witnesses saw a 2001 silver Dodge Durango swerve from the eastbound lane on Route 14 to the westbound lane, said Woodstock police Sgt. Dennis Leard.

The car then collided headon with a 2004 blue Mercury Marquis, Leard said.

The nine people hurt in the accident were all taken to Centegra Hospital – Woodstock for treatment.

Ramon Castillo, a McHenry resident who drove the Dodge Durango, was charged with driving without a license, driving uninsured and failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, Leard said.

The snowy weather and failure to adjust speed were the main causes of the accident, he said.

Fire departments from Lakewood, Crystal Lake, Huntley, Marengo, McHenry and Nunda Rural all provided ambulances because of the large number of people injured.

The road was closed for 90 minutes as officials cleared the scene.

Chicago schools, students cope with closings

By MARTHA IRVINE The Associated Press CHICAGO – Devion Allen peers wistfully through a door window at the school he used to attend. Those who live outside his gritty, violence-plagued neighborhood might dismiss this towering brick building as just another failing urban school. But to the eighth-grader, the school across the street from his mom’s subsidized apartment was a haven – “like a family,” he says.

To the administrators of Chicago Public Schools, though, the neighborhood school was underutilized and underperforming – one of 47 public schools that closed in the city in June, most of them in high-poverty neighborhoods with mostly minority populations. Two more will

be phased out by the end of the school year.

Allen left his school for the last time last summer, holding back tears as chaos and protests ensued. From that point on, the school, formerly known as Lafayette Elementary, became a symbol in a citywide and even national debate about the future course of public education.

Soon, officials say, the empty building will likely house an arts high school operated as a contract school, publicly funded but privately run.

“It’s not fair,” Allen said.

He and many of his friends, meanwhile, have been shifted to a school about a half mile away, one that is smaller than their old school and jammed with twice as many students as it had last school year.

Officials have dubbed it

a “welcoming school,” the name given to the Chicago schools that have taken in students from closed buildings.

The idea was to send displaced students to schools with better test scores, combining forces to give them a better shot at a good education.

That appears to be happening at some of the combined schools, where those involved say they’re making the best of a challenging situation.

“It’s going to be OK. It’s going to be OK,” grandparent Dexter Leggin tells students and parents when he works at an after-school program at Melody Elementary, a welcoming school on the city’s West Side.

To lighten the mood and promote unity, he’s taken to calling the school “Melano” – a combination of Mel-

ody and Delano Elementary, the closed school. In this instance, the school took the Melody name because it was the higher-performing school, but kept the Delano building because it was a better fit.

Overall, Chicago Public Schools officials say the transition has been going smoothly and insist that, as they’d hoped, most students are in a better situation than they were before.

“We’ve kept that promise,” said Denise Little, who leads the team that oversees the district’s principals.

Some teachers and parents at welcoming schools, however, tell a very different story. They complain that overcrowding and an overall lack of support is making the transition rough.

The Chopin School, where Allen attends, is so packed

that the staff there has had to give up the very amenities this transition was supposed to provide – the computer lab, the library and art and music rooms. The school’s psychologist, occupational therapist and speech pathologist also are working in windowless, unvented spaces that were formerly storage closets.

“There’s not enough space.

There’s not enough resources,” said Michael Flynn, a longtime seventh-grade literature and social studies teacher at the James Otis World Language Academy, a welcoming school northwest of downtown Chicago.

It’s an atmosphere, Flynn says, that has done little to help the colliding worlds meld – and that he and others fear might doom some welcoming schools to the same fate as those that closed.

Storm along East Coast dumps snow, snarls traffic

By DAN GELSTON and MICHAEL RUBINKAM The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA – A powerful storm that crept across the country dropped snow, freezing rain and sleet on the Mid-Atlantic region and headed northeast Sunday, turning NFL playing fields in Pennsylvania into winter wonderlands, dumping a foot of snow in Delaware and threatening a messy Monday commute in the northeast corridor.

The storm forced the cancellation of thousands of flights across the U.S. and slowed traffic on roads, leading to a number of accidents, including a fatal crash on the Pennsylvania Turnpike near Morgantown that led to a series of fender-benders involving 50 cars that stranded some motorists for up to seven hours. More than two dozen vehicles were involved in another series of crashes on nearby Interstate 78.

What was forecast in the Philadelphia area to be a tame storm system with about an inch of snow gradually changing over to rain mushroomed into a full-blown snowstorm that snarled mid-afternoon traffic along Interstate 95 in Pennsylvania from the Delaware to New Jersey state

“People are in and out [of their vehicles.] Kids are having a snowball fight on the side of the road, making snow angels, people are walking their dogs.”

Paul Jones Resident of the Philadelphia suburbs lines.

Paul Jones, 24, a youth hockey coach from Warminster in the Philadelphia suburbs, was on his way to a game in Lancaster when he got stuck – along with his fiancee, another coach and three players – in a major backup on the turnpike.

The roadway was “snow-covered, slick,” Jones said in an interview from the car, where he was a passenger and had been at a standstill for more than an hour.

“People are in and out” of their vehicles, he said. “Kids are having a snowball fight on the side of the road, making snow angels, people are walking their dogs.”

The National Weather Service said the low pressure

system from North Carolina north to New England was being fed by disturbances from the southwest and moist air off the Atlantic.

A foot of snow was reported in Newark, Del. Philadelphia International Airport received 8.6 inches Sunday, more than it had all of last year. Other areas received far less: a little over an inch was reported in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley, which usually is hit harder than downtown Philadelphia.

The forecast for early Monday remained up in the air for the northeast, depending on how quickly the system moves and temperatures rise, according to the National Weather Service.

The expectation was for another weather system moving out of Virginia to follow the same path as Sunday’s storm overnight. It was expected to dump icy drizzle and eventually freezing rain from Philadelphia northward through the New York City area and into Boston, National Weather Service meteorologist Greg Heavener said.

“The commute for people in the Philadelphia area and north, to northern New Jersey and New York will likely be disrupted by freezing rain,” Heavener said.

Senate Democrats push Obama nominees, GOP bides its time

By ALAN FRAM The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Fresh from shackling the traditional blocking ability of the Senate’s minority party, Democrats are ready to muscle through President Barack Obama’s nominees for pivotal judgeships and other top jobs.

Despite last month’s Democratic power play, Senate Republicans retain the power to slow, though not derail, Obama’s appointments.

Left unchanged were other rules that the out-of-power party could use to grind the

chamber’s work to an excruciating crawl. That ranges from requiring clerks to read voluminous bills and amendments to forcing repeated procedural votes.

“There are so many ways of slowing things down in the Senate,” said Robert Dove, the Senate’s former long-time parliamentarian.

Monday starts a two-week, year-end Senate session in which Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., hopes to finish work on a modest budget deal, a defense bill and other lingering items.

It will also be the first test

of how Republicans respond to the Democratic changes.

Monday’s meeting marks the chamber’s first since irritable lawmakers left town Nov. 21 for their Thanksgiving break. Earlier that day, Democrats used their 55-45 edge to reshape how filibusters work, trimming the number of votes needed to halt procedural delays against most nominations from 60 to a simple majority.

Democrats pushed through the changes after tiring of what they consider excessive GOP efforts to derail Obama’s nominees.

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois state prison inmates are among those who have been taking part in recovery efforts after last month’s deadly tornadoes.

The Illinois Department of Corrections says department staff and inmates have helped with debris removal.

The two dozen tornadoes that swept across Illinois on Nov. 17 damaged or destroyed more than 2,400 homes and killed seven people.

Corrections Director S.A. Godinez said involving inmates in such work helps them develop a sense of self-respect and an ability to better integrate back into society upon their release.

Altogether, 113 inmates took part in the cleanup efforts in the small communities of Gifford and Brookport.

Ex-officer faces DUI, impersonation charges CASEYVILLE – Authorities say a former southwestern Illinois police officer has been charged with driving under the influence and impersonating a police officer.

Caseyville Police Chief Jose Alvarez said 56-year-old Harold J. Johnson of Brooklyn is being held in the St. Clair County Jail with bond set at $10,000.

Authorities say Johnson was pulled over for a traffic violation early Saturday.

Alvarez says Johnson was driving under the influence and claimed to be a Brooklyn police officer during the stop.

He had a loaded gun with him, which police seized. Police later learned Johnson had been fired from the Brooklyn

police force earlier this year, but he hadn’t turned in his gun and badge.

DHL breaks ground on new O’Hare cargo facility CHICAGO – DHL has broken ground on a $35 million cargo facility at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport.

The DHL Global Forwarding Center will have offices and more than 420,000 square feet of warehouse space. It will be the largest facility of its type for the company inside the United States.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel took part in a groundbreaking ceremony for the facility on Friday.

The city says the project will create hundreds of construction jobs and bring 500 permanent jobs to Chicago.

Man blinded in Chicago road rage confrontation CHICAGO – An Oak Pakr man is accused of blinding a motorist in one eye by punching him during a road rage confrontation.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported that Terrell S. Brown of Oak Park was arrested Friday during an unrelated traffic stop when officers realized he was wanted in the Oct. 20 incident.

Prosecutors say Brown crashed into the other man’s car on Chicago’s Near West Side and then threatened to hit him if he called police.

They say that when the man tried to call, Brown struck him in the left eye, leaving him permanently blinded in that eye.

Brown is charged with aggravated battery. A judge on Saturday ordered him held in lieu of $200,000 bail.

Car Alignment).

You might not be able to play golf, work, or even sit in the car for a 30-minute drive. It’s almost impossible for anyone around you to understand how you feel. You can’t remember the last time you even had a restful night’s sleep.

I look forward to helping you get rid of your pain so you can start living a healthier, more joyful life.

Do You Have Any of the Following?

Sincerely, Dr. Alok RamTrivedi, Parikh,D. D.C. Dr. C.

• Sharp pains in the back of the leg • Lower Back Pain • Herniated/bulging discs • Numbness in your arms or legs • Shooting hip or thigh pain • Muscle spasm, sprains & strains

IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT THE PAIN. IT’S ABOUT HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR LIFESTYLE. Here’s what you’ll get...

• An in-depth consultation about your health and well-being where I will listen... really listen... to the details of your case.

If you’ve suffered from any of these annoying conditions, you may have “Sciatica”.

• A complete neuromuscular examination.

Sciatica is a compression of the sciatic nerve, usually by an L4 or L5 disc herniation. As you know, sciatica can be a very painful problem, even crippling at times.

• A full set of specialized x-rays to determine if a spinal problem is contributing to your pain or symptoms. (NOTE: These would normally cost you at least $100.)

Nothing’s worse than feeling great mentally, but physically feeling held back from life because your back or sciatica hurts and the pain just won’t go away!

Fortunately, if you are suffering from any of these problems, they may be relieved or eliminated by non-surgical spinal decompression.

• You’ll get to see everything first hand and find out if this amazing treatment will be your pain solution, as it has been for so many other patients.

I’ll answer all your most probing questions about our pain-free evaluation and what it can do for you.

“What’s The Chance This Will Work For Me?” A medical study found patients went from moderately painful to almost no pain with decompression treatments. Those who took pain pills improved less than 5%. - Am Society of Anesthesiologists, 2006 Chicago, IL Another study presented at the American Academy of Pain Management in 2007 showed...

“Patients reported a mean 88.9% improvement in back pain and better function... No patient required any invasive therapies (e.g. epidural injections, surgery).”

These are just two studies out of a dozen done in the last few years, all showing promising results.

Here’s the point of all these studies: spinal decompression has a high success rate with helping disc herniations, sciatica, and back pain.

The appointment will not take long at all, and you won’t be sitting in a waiting room all day, either.

And the best part about it is...

No Dangerous Drugs, No Invasive Procedures, And No Painful Exercises

What Will Your Pain Feel Like 1 Month From Today?

One of the biggest myths about pain is that it goes away all by itself, without any treatment.

A May 1998 study in the British Medical Journal proved this myth false, showing that 75% of back pain sufferers who do nothing about it will have either pain or disability 12 months later.

Let’s face it, if the pain hasn’t gone away by now, it’s not likely to disappear on its own.

Life’s too short to live in pain like this. Call today and soon I’ll be giving you the green light to have fun again. 724-431-4444 847-658-9544

“ Before treatment on the Spinal Decompression Table I could not put very much weight on my left leg. I could not walk or stand for long periods of time and had tremendous pain in my lower back and down the left leg. Since having treatments the pain is gone! I can walk and put weight on my left leg. Would highly recommend and have told friends about my results.”

Spinal decompression treatments are very gentle. In fact, I even catch a few patients sleeping during sessions every once in a while.

You’ll simply lie on your stomach or back, whichever is comfortable, and then a specialized belt is gently put around your waist. We’ll set the machine to focus on your problem area - then the advanced decompression computer system will do the rest.

“But I feel fine - as long as I take my pain pills.”

This means in just a matter of weeks you could be back on the golf course, enjoying your love life, or traveling again.

The Single Most Important Solution To Your Sciatica And Back Pain It’s time for you to find out if spinal decompression will be your sciatic pain solution.

For 10 days only, $25 $47 will get you all the services for which I normally charge new patients $257!

What does this offer include? Everything.

• A thorough analysis of your exam and x-ray findings so we can start mapping out your plain to being pain-free.

P.S. The only real question to ask yourself is this...

There’s a time to use pain medications, BUT not before seeking a natural way to correct the CAUSE of the problem!

Spinal decompression just may be the answer you’ve been looking for. Ask yourself... after taking all these pain medications and playing the “wait and see game”, maybe for years... are you any better off?

Food-tech startups aim to replace eggs, chicken

By TERENCE CHEA The Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO – The startup is housed in a garage-like space in San Francisco’s tech-heavy South of Market neighborhood, but it isn’t like most of its neighbors that develop software, websites and mobile-phone apps.

Its mission is to find plant replacements for eggs.

Inside, research chefs bake cookies and cakes, whip up batches of flavored mayonnaise and pan-fry omelets and French toast – all without eggs.

Funded by prominent Silicon Valley investors and Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Hampton Creek Foods seeks to disrupt a global egg industry that backers say wastes energy, pollutes the environment, causes disease outbreaks and confines chickens to tiny spaces.

The company, which just started selling its first product – Just Mayo mayonnaise – at Whole Foods Markets, is part of a new generation of socalled food-tech ventures that aim to change the way we eat.

“There’s nothing to indi-

“Our customers have said they’re not interested in egg substitutes.

They want real, natural eggs with their familiar ingredients.”

Mitch Kanter Executive director of the board-funded Egg Nutrition Center cate that this will be a trend that will end anytime soon,” said Anand Sanwal, CEO of

CB Insights, a New York firm that tracks venture capital investment. “Sustainability and challenges to the food supply are pretty fundamental issues.”

Venture capital firms, which invest heavily in early-stage technology companies, poured nearly $350 million into food-related startups last year, compared with less than $50 million in 2008, according to the firm.

Plant-based alternatives to eggs, poultry and other meat could be good for the environment because it could reduce

consumption of meat, which requires large amounts of land, water and crops to produce, backers say.

It could also benefit people’s health, especially in heavy meat-eating countries like the U.S., and reduce outbreaks of diseases such as avian flu, they say.

“The biggest challenge is that people who consume a lot of meat really like meat, and to convince them to try something different may be extremely difficult,” said Claire Kremen, faculty co-director of the Berkeley Food Institute at

the University of California, Berkeley.

The American Egg Board, which represents U.S. producers, said eggs can’t be replaced.

“Our customers have said they’re not interested in egg substitutes. They want real, natural eggs with their familiar ingredients,” Mitch Kanter, executive director of the board-funded Egg Nutrition Center, said in a statement.

The industry has reduced its water use and greenhouse gas emissions, and hens are living longer due to better health and nutrition, he said.

South Africans pray for Mandela Thousands flood Ukraine’s

capital in anti-gov’t protest

The ASSOCIATED PRESS CAPE TOWN, South Africa – In death, Nelson Mandela unified South Africans of all races and backgrounds Sunday on a day of prayer for the global statesman – from a vaulted cathedral with hymns and incense to a rural, hilltop church with goat-skin drums and barefoot dancing.

Mandela was remembered in old bedrocks of resistance to white domination as well as former bastions of loyalty to apartheid.

“May his long walk to freedom be enjoyed and realized in our time by all of us,” worshippers said in a prayer at the majestic St. George’s Cathedral in Cape Town, where the first white settlers arrived centuries ago aboard European ships.

South Africa’s reflection on Mandela’s astonishing life was a prelude to a massive memorial in a Johannesburg stadium Tuesday that will draw world leaders and luminaries. They will gather to mourn, but also to salute the achievements of the prisoner who became president and an emblem of humanity’s best instincts.

The extended farewell – a bittersweet mix of grief and celebration – ends Dec. 15, when Mandela is to be buried in his rural hometown of Qunu in Eastern Cape province.

The anti-apartheid campaigner wanted to die in those modest, traditional surroundings; instead, he died Thursday at age 95 in his home in an exclusive Johannesburg area.

He was surrounded by family after months of a debilitating illness that required the constant care of a team of doctors.

Family friend Bantu Holomisa told The Associated Press that Mandela wasn’t on life support in his final hours.

He appeared to be sleeping calmly but it was obvious that

“The strength of the new South Africa will be measured in the distance that the poor and the marginalized travel from the periphery to the center of our society.”

Rev. Michael Weeder Dean of St. George’s Cathedral he was finally succumbing, added Holomisa, who said he saw Mandela about two hours before his death.

“I’ve seen people who are on their last hours and I could sense that he is now giving up,” said Holomisa, who is the leader of the United Democratic Movement in parliament.

“You could see it is not Madiba anymore,” Holomisa added, using Mandela’s clan name.

The government and Mandela’s family have revealed few details about Mandela’s death. Ahmed Kathrada, who was sentenced to life in prison with Mandela in 1964, said he was informed shortly before Mandela’s death that his old friend had little time left.

Kathrada said Graca

Machel, Mandela’s wife, conveyed the message to him through another person that Mandela “will be leaving us that night” and “the doctors have said, ‘Anytime.’ ” The death still came as a shock to many South Africans, so accustomed to the enduring presence of the monumental fighter, even when he retired from public life years ago and became increasingly frail.

“He was more than just an individual soul. He was the exposition of the African spirit of generosity,” said the Rev. Michael Weeder, dean of St. George’s Cathedral.

But he cautioned that the country still has so much to do.

“The strength of the new South Africa will be measured in the distance that the poor and the marginalized travel from the periphery to the center of our society,” Weeder said.

In Johannesburg, hundreds swayed and sang at the Regina Mundi Church that was near the epicenter of the Soweto township uprising against white rule in 1976 and served as a refuge from security forces who fired tear gas around the building and whose bullets have pockmarked the outside walls.

KIEV, Ukraine – Hundreds of thousands of protesters poured into the streets of Ukraine’s capital on Sunday, toppling a statue of former Soviet leader Vladimir Lenin and blockading key government buildings in an escalating standoff with the president over the future of the country.

The biggest demonstration in the former Soviet republic since Ukraine’s pro-democracy Orange Revolution in 2004 led the government to fire back. It announced an investigation of opposition leaders for an alleged attempt to seize power and warned the demonstrators they could face criminal charges.

The West pressed for a peaceful settlement.

Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians flooded the center of Kiev, the capital, to demand President Viktor Yanukovych’s ouster after he

“Ukraine is tired of Yanukovych. We need new rules. We need to completely change those in power.”

Kostyantyn Meselyuk Ukraine protester

ditched ties with the European Union in favor of Russia and sent police to break up an earlier protest in the nearly three-week standoff.

“Ukraine is tired of Yanukovych. We need new rules.

We need to completely change those in power,” said protester Kostyantyn Meselyuk, 42.

“Europe can help us.”

Packing Independence Square as far as the eye could see, Ukrainians waving EU flags sang the national anthem and shouted “Resignation!” and “Down with the gang!” in a reference to Yanukovych’s regime.

“I am convinced that after

these events, dictatorship will never survive in our country,” world boxing champion and top opposition leader Vitali Klitschko told reporters. “People will not tolerate when they are beaten, when their mouths are shut, when their principles and values are ignored.”

As darkness fell, the conflict escalated further with protesters blockading key government buildings in Kiev with cars, barricades and tents.

The protests have had an anti-Russian component because Russia had worked aggressively to derail the EU deal with threats of trade retaliation against Ukraine.

About half a mile from the main square, one group of anti-government protesters toppled the city’s landmark statue of Lenin and decapitated it Sunday evening.

Protesters then took turns beating on the torso of the fallen statue, while others lined up to collect a piece of the stone.

Give.

8BRIEFS Invasive cockroach found in N.Y. can take the cold NEW YORK – The High Line, a park that turned a dilapidated stretch of elevated railway on Manhattan’s West Side into one of New York’s newest tourist attractions, may have brought a different kind of visitor: a cockroach that can withstand harsh winter cold and never seen before in the U.S. Rutgers University insect biologists Jessica Ware and Dominic Evangelista said the species Periplaneta japonica is well documented in Asia but was never confirmed in the United States until now.

France tries to rewrite its role in African colonies PARIS – France is coming to the rescue again, deploying soldiers in a former African colony to help stave off catastrophe – dirty work that Paris says it doesn’t really want.

French troops deployed to deal with the deadly chaos in Central African Republic, just as some 40 leaders from Africa, including the Central African Republic’s transitional prime minister, met in Paris on Friday and Saturday.

Business owners can ban weapons, but must have sign • CONCEALED CARRY Continued from page A1 The Illinois State Police will start to accept applications for concealed-carry permits Jan. 5.

A 2012 federal appeals court ruling struck down Illinois’ total ban on concealed carry, the last statewide ban of its kind among the 50 states.

A 69-year-old downstate woman who owned handguns and had concealed-carry permits from two other states sued to overturn the ban after being brutally attacked in her church during a 2009 robbery – her weapons were at home because it was illegal to carry them outside.

State lawmakers earlier this year hashed out rules for carrying a concealed weapon, and overrode an amendatory veto by Gov. Pat Quinn with hours to spare before the ban was set to expire under court order.

The law allows Illinois residents to obtain a five-year concealed-carry permit for a $150 fee after completing a 16-hour training course, the longest of any state. Nonresidents must pay a $300 fee for a permit. Illinois does not recognize concealed-carry permits from other states,

although the new law allows nonresidents passing through to keep their weapons in their cars.

Besides government facilities and courthouses, carrying is forbidden in parks and festivals, mass transit, schools and colleges, hospitals, stadiums, bars and dining establishments that make more than half of their revenue from alcohol sales.

Business owners can ban concealed weapons from their properties, but must place a sign designed by the state police at the entrance. However, the law allows people to store their weapons in their locked vehicles in parking lots where carrying is banned by law or by the establishment owner.

State lawmakers Tuesday passed a trailer bill cleaning up some of the language of the law and clarifying some gray areas.

Besides sheriff’s deputies and correctional officers, the county’s deputy coroners can carry handguns in specific instances at the sole discretion of the elected coroner. Deputy coroners asked to be able to make that decision themselves during negotiations for their first union contract, but a state arbitrator last year sided with the county and denied the request.

Before selecting socks, Jack already had scored a Mega Nerf Gun, a Lego City helicopter and a pair of camouflage-patterned winter boots. Each child was able to spend $150, plus pick out a hat, coat, mittens and snow boots.

Officer Wenrich, who has three children of her own, said she was pleased to see Jack select toys that build hand-eye coordination.

“Maybe one day you’ll be an engineer,” she said.

“I’m going to be in the Army,” Jack replied before trying on a pair of warm, black gloves.

Harvard police dispatcher Mike Vest was very impressed when his partner for the morning, 13-yearold Adolfo bee-lined for the book section. In his cart Adolfo had placed copies of “Ender’s Shadow” and “Rebel Spring,” as well as a Nintendo video game and more.

“I’m looking for clothes now,” Adolfo said, adding that the spree would not be

complete until he’d picked out a gift for his mother.

“It’s fun to see the kids’ faces light up when we walk in the store and you tell them that [they can choose from] everything between all four walls,” said Vest, who, like the other officers, arrived at the store before 7 a.m.

Funding comes from donations, events and the hard work of supporting entities such as the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce’s MC3 business referral group.

“Our group wanted to give back,” said Wayne Seely of MC3 as he helped bag participants’ purchases.

“We raised about $14,400 this year.”

After shopping, participants also were treated to breakfast at either D’Andrea’s Banquets in Crystal Lake or 31 North in McHenry.

Five-year-old Rose of Richmond looked forward to breakfast as she surveyed her morning’s treasures, a pair of Hello Kitty boots visible at the top of a wellfilled black bag. “My favorite thing I picked was the Leapfrog games,” she said.

“We picked wisely, didn’t we?” Richmond police officer Pam Hewett said.

Continued from page A1 rendered practically useless by errors, duplication or garbles. Efforts to fix the issues are underway.

Nearly 70,000 agents and brokers have been certified nationwide to sell health insurance on the federal exchange. Many say they could be the troubled health law’s best ambassadors with the potential to boost lackluster enrollment figures – only about 27,000 had enrolled via the federal website nationwide in the first month. But instead, many agents said they’re continually met by obstacles.

“You look at this dismal number they have of how many people have enrolled on healthcare.gov,” Fristoe said. “If they would just re-

lax and loosen up, because me and all of my associates across this nation want to help these consumers get enrolled into the market.”

Federal health officials announced Nov. 22 that they’d fixed some portions of the website to allow more insurers and insurance agents to enroll consumers directly.

The feds are asking roughly 16 insurers, agents and brokers in Florida, Texas and Ohio to test it out and give feedback about the fixes, hoping to expand it to other states in the coming weeks.

But the problems have persisted, prompting the head of the National Association of Health Underwriters to write the president Tuesday, urging him to make additional fixes a priority, saying agents have a significant backlog of clients with incomplete applications.

Keep e-cigs from teens Electronic cigarettes, those hip new cigarettes that blow a thick white vapor rather than smoke, are clearly less harmful than real cigarettes.

But that doesn’t mean e-cigarettes are harmless. Until we know something different, that’s how we ought to treat them.

Folks who are wary of e-cigarettes – batteryoperated nicotine inhalers that do not produce smoke – are going after them on two fronts.

This group includes Mayor Rahm Emanuel, New York’s city council, other municipalities and states as well as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The first is a no-brainer: keeping e-cigarettes out of the hands of teens and pre-teens. We cheer on efforts to do that in the city of Chicago and at the national level.

E-cigarettes don’t burn tar or tobacco, removing the risk of exposure to carcinogens in cigarette smoke. But they contain nicotine and the risks there, particularly to young people, are well documented. Nicotine is highly addictive, can impact the development of young brains, raises the heart rate and is one of the elements of smoking associated with heart disease.

Fortunately, Illinois has joined about half the states in banning the sale of e-cigarettes to anyone under 18, effective Jan. 1. The FDA appears poised to take action across the country, with the agency noting with “great concern” the rise in youth e-cigarette use. The wisest course is to ban the sale to anyone under 18.

Without smoke, the risks to non-smokers nearby are clearly diminished. But the risks are not eliminated – there is concern that nicotine and chemicals such as formaldehyde and acetone are present in the e-cigarette vapor as well as other particles that can cause heart problems. Until we know the full secondhand effects of smoke-less cigarettes, it’s prudent to restrict them in the same way we do regular Chicago Sun-Times cigarettes.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Speak against District 15 To the Editor: City of McHenry, get ready to get taxed to the grave by District 15 – a 9.72 percent property-tax increase.

If you do not call or go to the meeting Monday, you have nobody to blame but yourself.

A 9.72 percent increase for a district that is in the black. Who are they kidding? Hopefully, not you – $1.87 million a year from your pocket to the teachers’ retirement.

Come on, and wake up, McHenry.

This school district already takes 43 percent of your property taxes.

Call the district or show up to the meeting. Otherwise, get ready for another big tax increase, and it’s not my fault. I did not see or hear from you at the District 156 levy hearing, where the increase only went up 2.75 percent because I went and voiced my opinion. How about you?

Family’s appreciation To the Editor: I want to take this opportunity to thank all our friends, Bob’s classmates, my colleagues, and former students, Sean’s friends, our pastor Fred Burtelson, church friends old and new, and my family, who came to show their respects for my hubby, Bobby C. Thank you for all the food donations, phone calls, stopping by, and outpouring of love. I want to thank Dan Cooney, Mike Cooney, Shawn Cooney and Dave Pierce for helping everything run smoothly.

I don’t think Bob realized how many lives he touched with his helpfulness and his “Bobby C-ness.” His brother, Joe, relayed many wonderful comments he heard about him helping people in a big or small way. He had the biggest heart. We all need to emulate that.

I am so thankful I told him he was going to marry me 39-plus years

ago. What a ride it was. So tonight, please do something Bobby C and I did all the time: Take the someone special in your life and give them a big “Bobby C” hug, a big kiss, and tell them you love them. Because you never know what the next minute brings.

Thank you so much for your love and support. Sean and I are so appreciative.

USPS’ poor service To the Editor: This is in response to Scott Dikun (“Excellent service,” Aug. 12).

The post office continues to give lousy service – not only Harvard, but the post office in general.

I was supposed to receive a large retirement check mailed from New Jersey on Sept. 15 and still have not seen the check. The bank stopped payment on it and sent a replacement check via UPS.

My wife ordered drapes from a company in New York with a USPS tracking number, mind you, and twice the post office returned the package to the company from the Palatine sorting facility. We ended up getting my money back.

Ordered drapes sent via Fed-Ex and received them in two days.

I sent a request to Milwaukee via certified mail, and it took 10 days. The post office charged me $2.41 for a returned signature card.

Seriously.

Yes, I do most of my banking and bill-paying online. You just have to use common sense and secure websites to do this. I have been paying online for several years and yet have been scammed.

So, Scott, you can say what you want to say about the post office, but, on occasion, I see negatives about the post office in the letters to the editor. I will not use the post office unless absolutely necessary.

War committee considered among most abusive On this day (Dec. 9) in 1861, Congress established The Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War, which was created as a congressional investigating committee to look into possible corruption, profiteering and inefficiency in the federal government and to investigate the loyalty of federal employees, especially Union Army officers.

Established after the humiliating Union defeat at the Oct. 21, 1861, Battle of Ball’s Bluff, the committee conducted a series of witch-hunting hearings that led to the dismissal from the Army of the Union commander at Ball’s Bluff (Gen. Charles Pomeroy Stone) and his incarceration for 189 days in a military prison.

Stone was accused of undue friendliness with the enemy, cowardice in battle, military ineptitude, and even possible treason.

It was obvious that Stone was made the military scapegoat, not only for the Ball’s Bluff fiasco, but for the poor showing of the Union armies in and around Washington, D.C., early in the war.

The real culprits for the early federal military defeats, inaction and ineptitude were, more accurately, several Eastern Theatre Union Army commanders (especially Gens.

Irvin McDowell and George B. McClellan), not the hapless 15th Massachusetts Division commander Stone, who happily was later returned to active military service.

Originally established to investigate corruption and disloyalty, the Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War soon got involved in wide range of issues pertaining to the

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

ON THIS DAY Joseph C. Morton northern war effort that including the minutia of military strategy, the troublesome matter of illicit trade with the Confederacy, the use of African-American soldiers, the medical treatment of wounded soldiers, the urging of the emancipation of all slaves, and prisoner exchange.

During its 272 meetings held between December 1861 and May 1865, the committee became the focal point for Republican and Democratic criticism of President Abraham Lincoln, his Cabinet members (especially Secretary of State William H. Seward), the president’s military strategy and his relatively lenient Reconstruction policies.

The committee’s original House of Representatives members were selected by the speaker, whereas the Senate members were chosen by Vice President Hannibal Hamlin and included, interestingly, the only senator from a Confederate state (Lincoln’s second vice president and presidential successor Andrew Johnson of Tennessee). The leaders, all radical Republicans, of what could be called an early version of the infamous witch-hunting House Committee on UnAmerican Activities of the 1940s and 1950s, were chairman Sen. Benjamin Wade of Ohio and Sens. George W. Julian of Indiana and

Zachariah Chandler of Michigan.

The committee issued several official reports, the first of which, published in 1863, delineated the “problems” (inactivity and alleged incompetence) associated with the Army of the Potomac under Gens. McClellan, “Fighting” Joe Hooker, Ambrose Burnside, and George G. Meade, and the Union defeats at First Bull Run and Ball’s Bluff. Subsequent reports dealt with specific issues, such as Confederate mistreatment of captured Union soldiers, the military expedition at Fort Fisher, S.C. (where AfricanAmerican troops were extensively utilized), the use of Monitor-class warships, and the issuance of government contracts.

These reports, taken altogether, represented a concerted challenge to Lincoln as president and commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy and his assumption of “unwarranted” executive powers. Particularly, the reports criticized, as inept and even treasonous, Union commanders who lost battles and almost everyone else who did not agree with the radical Republican strategy of all-out, aggressive military action and its harsh Reconstruction policies.

This committee is considered, by many historians, to be one of the most abusive, vindictive congressional investigating committees in American history.

Bears in much better shape after Lions’ collapse Somehow you just knew the NFC North wasn’t going to be decided with three or four weeks left in the season, and the Detroit Lions confirmed it for us in exactly the fashion we’ve come to expect from them.

To be fair, the conditions for the Eagles’ 34-20 victory over the Lions on Sunday were like something out of a Disney movie with the snow falling and piling up far faster than it could be blown off the field. But with a 14-0 lead with just

under 20 minutes to play and then a 20-14 lead a minute into the fourth quarter, the Lions surrendered 20 unanswered points and threw the door wide open for the Bears to climb back into a first-place tie in the division with a victory Monday night over the Cowboys.

It is hard to say just how good the NFC East-leading Eagles are, but they held the Lions’ offense to just one 2-yard touchdown run from Joique Bell all day. The Lions’ other two scores came on punt

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush return and kickoff return touchdowns from Jeremy Ross.

Of course, the Bears have the Eagles to worry about themselves in a couple of weeks, but all that matters now is if they do their jobs Monday night, they are tied for the division lead with just a losing

tiebreaker to overcome with three games to play.

The difference between making up one game with three to play and two with four to play is like night and day.

If the Bears peek over their shoulders they’ll see all that hot air on their necks is coming from the Packers, who are actually in better shape than they are in the division race, just a half game behind the 7-6 Lions at 6-6-1.

Talk about staring into the abyss

and fighting back, the Packers were down 21-10 at the half, and running back Eddie Lacy appeared to suffer a serious ankle injury on the final play of the half.

But as it turns out, it wasn’t quite as bad as it looked for the Pack. The Falcons’ second touchdown came after a sack and strip of Matt Flynn at his own 20-yard line, and the third score was a fluke 71yard interception return.

WINTER OLYMPICS Northern Illinois vs. Utah State, 8:30 p.m. Dec. 26, ESPN

NIU IN POINSETTIA BOWL

Chance of a lifetime

Huskies bound for San Diego

By STEVE NITZ snitz@shawmedia.com Northern Illinois is going to sunny San Diego.

The Huskies, ranked No. 23 in the final BCS standings, will play Utah State in the Poinsettia Bowl at 8:30 p.m. Dec. 26 at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego. Qualcomm is the home of the San Diego Chargers, and the game will be televised on ESPN. With a win in Friday’s MidAmerican Conference Championship, the Huskies would have earned a BCS bid, but those chances ended after a stunning 4727 upset loss to Bowling Green in Detroit.

NIU (12-1) got to the Poinsettia Bowl because the MAC had a secondary agreement with the bowl game this year. The matchup was originally scheduled to be a Mountain West team vs. Army, but the Black Knights have only three wins heading into Saturday’s game against Navy and won’t be bowl-eligible. NIU is taking Army’s place.

“At the end of the day it came down to the matchup. It came down to timing, and it came down to invitations, too,” NIU athletic director Sean Frazier said. “It just happens that the Poinsettia Bowl, having the Mountain West runner-up, obviously us being a runner-up in our own right, in looking at that matchup we all felt that was the right place for us and the right timing.”

Utah State (8-5) won the MWC Mountain Division. The Aggies lost, 24-17, to Fresno State in Saturday’s MWC Championship Game in Fresno, Calif.

NIU has finals this week, and Huskies coach Rod Carey said the team won’t practice until later in the week, when finals are over.

NIU will be able to use the new Chessick Practice Center this season. For past bowl practices, NIU had to use the DeKalb Recreation Center when the weather was bad.

This will be NIU’s second appearance in the Poinsettia Bowl.

The Huskies lost to TCU, 37-7, in 2006. The game has been in existence since 2005.

Carey said the game will give the senior class a chance to go out the right way.

“Last year after the Orange Bowl loss, we had to sit on that loss for sixth months, and that was a really bad taste in your mouth for that amount of time,” Carey said. “This year, we don’t have to wait that long to get back out there and get that bad taste out of our mouth.”

Erin Blair officiates a boys junior hockey game Sunday at Leafs Ice Centre in West Dundee. Blair will be a women’s hockey official at the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.

Local teacher Blair to officiate women’s hockey in Sochi

By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com

T

here is a part of Erin Blair that won’t allow her to accept, at least completely, that her Olympic dream – all these years later – is actually coming true.

Ask the first-year fifth- and sixthgrade health teacher at Lakewood School in Carpentersville what the moment was like when her phone rang and the news arrived that she’d be traveling to the 2014 Sochi Winter Games in February as a women’s hockey referee, and Blair struggles to come up with words.

Perhaps it’s because of the enormity of the accomplishment.

After working eight international tournaments, Blair will skate on women’s hockey’s biggest frozen stage. Maybe it’s because after three years of learning she was even being considered for a spot on the officiating crew that will work the Sochi Games, she was selected as one of six referees and the only from the United States.

But considering this isn’t the first time the 32-year-old Blair chased the Winter Olympics, the realization that she actually made it is still a little bit much to take in all at once.

“I don’t even how to put it into words,” Blair said Thursday, two days after she learned of her Olym-

Blair laces up her skates before officiating Sunday’s game. pic appointment. “I feel blessed. I feel like I’ve been given some great opportunities in the past, and this is the ultimate goal. This is what everybody that does what I do wants to do.

“It’s kind of a feeling that I can’t believe it’s me.”

As fulfilling of a feeling as that is, though, perhaps it means more because she understands what it’s like to be on the other end. Blair, a former goalie at the University of Findlay (Ohio), had attended open tryouts for the U.S. National Team as a player. She never made the cut, leaving the Lisle native feeling dis-

appointed and forcing her to move on from a goal of representing the U.S. in an Olympic games.

But when Blair started officiating just as a way to remain connected to hockey, the desire to make another Olympic team – as a referee – re-emerged, pushing Blair to put herself back on a track to reach the Winter Games. Over the course of her 13-year officiating career, Blair kept surging ahead, first in the minority as a female Division I hockey referee and then at the international level. With each step, she inched closer to making her Olympic debut.

Along the way, she never lost

sight of her role on the ice.

“Whether I step on the ice for a Mites games with kids that are 6, 7 years old or I step on the ice for an international U.S. versus Canada game, it’s the same concept of calling the game to the best of your ability,” Blair said. “You see what you see and do the best that you can.

You can’t overthink it. Everybody’s going to have nerves, but you have to step out there and say, ‘This is my job.’ ” Even if it’s not on a full-time basis.

Unlike her male counterparts who are career hockey officials – including Crystal Lake resident and NHL linesman Andy McElman, who also learned last week he will work the Sochi Games – Blair has had to balance her Olympic dreams with maintaining a career away from the ice.

After working with young athletes in the exercise science field, Blair changed direction four years ago, returning to school to pursue her teaching certificate. The career shift limited how much Blair could officiate, as she focused on a completely new direction in life.

Yet, even in the chaos of reinventing herself with her career, she never allowed the Olympics to stray from her to-do list.

JESSE OWENS’ GOLD MEDAL AUCTIONED

Penguins owner pays record $1.4M for piece of history The ASSOCIATED PRESS LAGUNA NIGUEL, Calif. – An Olympic gold medal won by Jesse Owens at the 1936 Berlin Games has sold for a record $1.4 million in an online auction.

SCP Auctions said Pittsburgh Penguins co-owner Ron Burkle paid $1,466,574, the highest price for a piece of Olympic memorabilia. The online auction ended Sunday.

“We just hope that it’s purchased by an institution where the public could have access to it, a museum or something like that,” Owens’ daughter, Marlene Owens Rankin of Chicago, told The Associated Press before the sale.

The auction house said Burkle, who also owns William Faulkner’s Nobel Prize for literature, has plans for an educational tour of the historic pieces. He wasn’t available for comment Sunday.

The Los Angeles billionaire investor’s holdings include retail, food and entertainment companies.

Owens won gold in the 100 and 200 meters, 400 relay and long jump at the games attended by Adolf Hitler, who used the Olympics to showcase his ideas of Aryan supremacy.

According to the auction house based in Laguna Niguel, Calif., the medal is unidentifiable to a specific event. It said Owens gave the medal to his friend, dancer and movie star

Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, as thanks for helping Owens find work in entertainment after he returned from Berlin.

The medal was sold by the estate of Robinson’s late widow, Elaine Plaines-Robinson. SCP Auctions Vice President Dan Imler said the Owens family confirmed the medal is original; the whereabouts of the other three is unknown.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the medal will be donated to the Jesse Owens Foundation. The Robinson family had declined to comment on the auction, but Imler said they also plan to use the proceeds to pay college tuition.

Last month, IOC President Thom-

as Bach told the AP that the Owens medal is “a part of world heritage.” “[It has] an importance far beyond the sporting achievements of Jesse Owens, which is part of world history,” Bach said. “To put this up for an auction is for me a very difficult decision [to accept].”

The record price for the Owens medal surpassed that of a silver cup awarded to the winner of the first modern-day Olympic marathon in 1896 that sold for $865,000 in April 2012. It also topped the highest price paid for a U.S. Olympic item – the “Miracle on Ice” jersey worn by team captain Mike Eruzione in 1980 that sold for $657,250 in February.

“We are honored to have handled

what we consider to be among the most inspiring sports artifacts ever offered at auction,” Imler said. “The worldwide attention garnered by the auction of Jesse Owens’ 1936 gold medal and the extraordinary auction result proves that Owens’ triumphant legacy continues to endure.”

The auction, including more than 1,000 sports memorabilia items, brought in almost $4.5 million.

Other top lots included Jackie Robinson’s game-used bats from his historic 1949 NL Most Valuable Player season and the 1955 World Series, which sold for $183,500 and $128,617, respectively; and a Jackie Robinson single-signed baseball attracted a record bid of $104,765.

BLACKHAWKS NOTES

GOLF ROUNDUP

Ex-Hawks in mix for Panthers

Johnson rallies to stun Tiger in playoff

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Jimmy Hayes and Dylan Olsen had just checked into their hotel Nov. 14 and had started up a card game after a five-hour bus ride to Grand Rapids for the Rockford IceHogs’ next game when they got a call from Blackhawks minor-league general manager Mark Bernard, summoning them to his room.

“We thought we were getting called up to the Hawks,” Olsen said.

Instead, the two learned they had been traded to the Florida Panthers for Kris Versteeg.

“It came as a bit of a shock,” Olsen said. “Didn’t see that coming. But we looked at it as an opportunity. Obviously, it’s been going well so far.”

Indeed, the two prospects who couldn’t crack the Hawks’ roster – Hayes had seen 43 NHL games over three seasons, while Olsen got 28 games two years ago – have found seemingly permanent roster spots with the struggling Panthers, who visited the United Center on Sunday night. Hayes, a 6-foot-6 forward, has three goals and an assist in 10 games with Florida. Olsen, a defenseman, has a goal and three assists in six games, averaging about 17 minutes a night.

“It’s a tough lineup to crack,” Olsen said of the Hawks. “So going to Florida, I thought it was a great opportunity to get my foot in the door and start establishing myself in the NHL.” Shaw back: Andrew Shaw returned to the Hawks’ third line after missing two games with an upper-body injury suffered late in Tuesday night’s loss to Dallas. Shaw said before the game that he had “tons of energy,” which is something the Hawks could use during this grueling stretch of games.

“We need to get out there and create our own energy and just feed off one another, and go out there compete and work for each other, and those chances are going to come,” he said.

“And when they do, we’ve got to put them in the back of the net.”

Roster report: The Hawks recalled defenseman Michael Kostka from his conditioning assignment in Rockford and activated him off injured reserve.

He was a scratch for Sunday’s game. It was the 24th straight game he’s missed since taking a puck off his foot at the morning skate Oct. 22 at Florida.

Blackhawks goalie Antti Raanta loses his mask during the third period Sunday against the Florida Panthers at the United Center. Raanta replaced Corey Crawford, who was injured in the first period of the Hawks’ 6-2 win.

BLACKHAWKS 6, PANTHERS 2

Crawford hurt; skid ends Groin injury KOs goalie in 1st period of Hawks’ victory

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com CHICAGO – So far this season, the Blackhawks have had little more than first-world problems. Sure, the penalty kill has been, in Joel Quenneville’s words, “a disaster.” The schedule has been brutal of late, and has taken its toll. And yes, they’ve had a few injuries.

That said, they’re still leading the NHL in points.

But the sight of goaltender Corey Crawford being helped off the ice by defenseman Brent Seabrook and athletic trainer Mike Gapski surely sent a cold chill down the Hawks’ spines, and at the very least tempered the relief of Sunday night’s 6-2 rout of the Florida Panthers, a win that snapped a three-game losing streak.

A source said it’s a groin injury for Crawford, though the severity isn’t yet known.

He was hurt making a pad save with 6:15 left in the first

Next for the Hawks Hawks at Dallas, 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, CSN, AM-720 period. He tried to stand up but was unable to do so, appearing to favor his left leg.

“I don’t think it’s too serious,” Quenneville said after the game. “But when it’s a goalie, it’s a little more serious than other players, because of how important he is to our team.”

Antti Raanta came in and made 29 saves on 31 shots.

With their top goalie out, the Hawks’ top skaters did the heavy lifting. Patrick Sharp had a goal and two assists, Patrick Kane had three assists, Marian Hossa, Brandon Saad and Brent Seabrook each had a goal and an assist, and Jonathan Toews had two assists.

The Hawks scored three power-play goals and killed off all five power plays against the Panthers, the third-worst team in the league.

Sharp said the Hawks didn’t lose focus after Crawford went down.

“You try not to think about it; injuries are part of the game,” he said. “It’s not often you see the goalie leave the game, so you know it’s got to be something serious. [But] you’re not going to waste any energy. We all care about Crow, no question. But in the middle of the game, we’ve got to focus on our jobs.”

That’s what Raanta had to do, too. It was the rookie’s fifth career appearance, and his second in relief – he made his NHL debut when Crawford was pulled in the first period at Colorado last month.

Quenneville said the Hawks won’t know how long Crawford will be out until Monday – and the Hawks

surely will at least sniff around for a goalie through either free agency or a trade – but Raanta said he’s ready to take the reins if need be.

He admitted he has some work to do, particularly with his puck-handling – his giveaway led directly to Marcel Goc’s second-period goal that cut the Hawks’ lead to 3-2 – but the Hawks expressed confidence in him.

“That’s the job I came here to do,” he said. “If the coaches [want me] going to the net, I’m going to the net. I’ll try to be as good as possible.”

The Hawks got another scare in the third period when former Hawks forward Jimmy Hayes plowed over Raanta, sending his mask flying. He was fine, but it briefly sent the Hawks “scrambling,” according to Sharp, to figure out who might play goalie. Sharp joked that he’d be “the last guy to go in there; don’t want to mess up my stats,” but said Shaw quickly volunteered.

Lakewood School principal: Blair an inspiration to kids • BLAIR Continued from page B1 “It’s like my two worlds were colliding,” Blair said.

“Yeah, I wanted [the Olympics], but it was a juggling act. But I was still able to accomplish both of my goals.

I’ve become a teacher and I was selected to work the Olympics, and I think that made [the appointment] even more special.”

The latter has given Blair a celebrity status at Lakewood that other first-year teachers don’t often experience. She began the school year knowing she was on the short list for an Olympic

appointment, allowing Blair to include her students on he journey to Sochi.

On a regular, if not daily, basis, they would ask if she had heard anything yet about the Olympics, picking up excitement as the selection date drew nearer. The smiles Blair sees from her kids has made the journey even more meaningful, understanding that even a refereeing job that sometimes seems like a sidelight to Blair’s everyday job is having an impact on her students.

Blair recently served as a motivational speaker for Lakewood’s Dare To Be Rare after-school event, inspiring

girls to never give up on their dreams. After hearing Blair’s story, students – along with her educational colleagues – couldn’t help but get caught up in Blair’s Olympic hopes.

“She had to work hard and she wasn’t always successful at everything and sometimes she didn’t make something, but she picked herself up and brushed herself off,” Lakewood School Principal Asia Gurney said.

“Maybe she had to try something different or try a little harder, and I think that’s a very good influence for our kids.

“Her determination, her

positive attitude and her willingness to work hard and have a vision and goal and work toward that is very inspiring.”

Before leaving for Sochi in early February, Blair will train off-ice three days a week while skating one or two additional days to physically prepare for a women’s style of play known for its finesse and wide-open play.

Unlike the men’s game, there is no body-checking in women’s Olympic hockey, making conditioning – even for the officials – a top priority.

Blair, who worked the 2011 Asian Winter Games before 8,000 fans in an envi-

ronment so loud she could barely hear, will begin to picture her biggest officiating assignment to date, embracing the opportunity as well as finally seeing her Olympic dream come true.

“I’m still trying to wrap my head around all of this because it’s so unique and so different than anything else I’ve ever experienced,” Blair said. “Even at the tournaments I’ve worked, we don’t get a lot of people, we don’t get a lot of big crowds to come watch the games.

“So it’s one of those things that I haven’t ever seen, and so I don’t even know what to envision.”

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif.

– Zach Johnson put together the storybook finish at Sherwood on Sunday that for the longest time belonged to Tiger Woods.

Johnson rallied from four shots behind with eight holes to play, holed out from a drop area for par on the last Zach hole to force Johnson a playoff, and beat the No. 1 player in golf at the World Challenge when Woods missed a 5-foot par putt on the first extra hole.

It was an extraordinary sendoff at Sherwood, which hosted the World Challenge for the 14th and final time before it moves to Florida next year.

For Woods, it was only the fourth time in his career that he lost a lead of at least two shots going into the final round, the second time at Sherwood. Graeme McDowell overcame a four-shot deficit in 2010 and beat Woods in a playoff.

Hong Kong Open: At Hong Kong, Miguel Angel Jimenez successfully defended his Hong Kong Open title to extend his record as the oldest winner in European Tour history.

The Spaniard won at 49 years, 337 days to break the record he set last year at Hong Kong Golf Club, holing an 18-foot birdie on the first hole of a playoff with Thailand’s Prom Meesawat and Wales’ Stuart Manley.

Jimenez won the event for the fourth time to match the tournament victory record set by Taiwan’s Hsieh Yong Yo, the winner in 1963, ‘64, ‘75 and ‘78. Jimenez also won in 2004 and 2007. He has 20 European Tour victories, a tour-record 13 since turning 40.

Jimenez closed with a 4-under 66 to match Meesawat at 12-under 268.

Nedbank Golf Challenge: At Sun City, South Africa, Denmark’s Thomas Bjorn had two back-nine eagles in a comeback victory in the European Tour event.

The 42-year-old Bjorn closed with a 7-under 65 for a two-stroke victory over Wales’ Jamie Donaldson and Spain’s Sergio Garcia.

Bjorn finished at 20-under 268 at Gary Player Country Club. He earned $1.25 million for his 15th European Tour title.

Swinging Skirts World Ladies Masters: At Taipei, Taiwan, Lydia Ko rallied to win her first title as a professional.

The 16-year-old from New Zealand closed with a 4-under 68 for a three-stroke victory over South Korea’s So Yeon Ryu. Ko had an 11-under 205 total at Linkou Miramar and earned $150,000 in the event sanctioned by the Taiwan and Korean tours.

PACKERS 22, FALCONS 21

Packers rally, end 5-game winless streak

By GENARO C. ARMAS The Associated Press GREEN BAY, Wis. – A smattering of boos cascaded down on the Green Bay Packers at the half, trailing by double digits on a bone-chilling afternoon at Lambeau Field.

This wasn’t a good sign for a team that hasn’t played well late in games, especially without injured quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Coach Mike McCarthy went into the locker room wondering how much energy his players had with the team’s playoff prospects in jeopardy.

Green Bay responded with its most complete performance in weeks. Matt Flynn threw for 258 yards and a maligned defense forced a key fourth-quarter turnover in a 22-21 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday that ended a five-game winless stretch.

“Good to win, it’s been a while.

Forgot what it felt like,” McCarthy said.

“But I’ll say this – I really like the football team, particularly at halftime, coming in, getting booed at home, and just the energy in the locker room. They never blinked, they stayed the course,” said the even-keeled coach.

It came down to defense in the final few minutes of a nail-biting fourth quarter.

Mike Neal’s sack forced Matt Ryan to fumble, and defensive lineman Johnny Jolly scooped up the loose ball and celebrated with a little belly dance. Four plays later, Flynn found Andrew Quarless for a 2-yard touchdown pass for the 2221 lead for the Packers (6-6-1) with about 12 minutes left.

“We needed to have fun. That’s what we did today,” Jolly said.

“We went out there and left everything that we had and made plays and had fun.”

Quarless’ TD completed a

comeback from an 11-point halftime deficit and whipped the bundled-up fans into a frigid frenzy.

It was 9 degrees when the game started, with a wind chill of minus-1. The stadium looked as if it was encased in a snow globe at times with much of the game played while light, powdery snowflakes gently fell to the worn turf.

Atlanta kicker Matt Bryant missed a 52-yard field goal attempt into the wind with 6:42 left. The Falcons (3-10) got to the 33 with 2 minutes left, but Tony Gonzalez dropped a short pass from Ryan under tight coverage by Jarrett Bush.

BRONCOS 51, TITANS 28 DENVER – Unbothered by the freezing weather, Matt Prater set an NFL record with a 64-yard field goal, and Peyton Manning threw four more touchdown passes Sunday, lifting Denver to a victory over Tennessee (5-8).

Manning opened the third quarter by leading the Broncos on a pair of touchdown drives, and the Broncos (11-2) easily wrapped up a playoff spot.

Denver’s quarterback set a franchise record with 39 completions and finished with 397 yards.

Bears quarterback Jay Cutler likely will receive a big multiyear contract from the Bears or another NFL team after this sea-

Multiyear deal for Cutler makes sense for Bears No matter how you feel about Jay Cutler, whether you think he’s the best or worst thing to happen to the Bears, some team is going to pay him a lot of money. It could be the Bears. It could be someone else.

So a report that the Titans are interested in Cutler isn’t exactly shocking. If Duke blew out a University of Phoenix online basketball team, it would have about the same shock value.

Of course the Titans and other teams are interested in Cutler’s arm. Oakland probably will pursue him if he becomes a free agent after the season. Jacksonville, Arizona, Cleveland, Houston and Minnesota, among others, will be in the market for a quarterback for 2014. If they aren’t, a government investigation is in order.

The NFL Network reported Sunday that Tennessee won’t pick up the option on Jake Locker and very much would like to acquire Cutler, who starred at Vanderbilt, which is located in Nashville.

In Chicago, the question isn’t what another team thinks of Cutler. It’s what the local team thinks of him. If I were a betting man, I’d put my money on Cutler getting a multiyear contract from the Bears.

General manager Phil Emery said last week that putting a franchise tag on a quarterback doesn’t make a lot of financial sense because of the salary cap hit that comes with it. A contract, on the other hand, significantly spreads out the cap implications over a number of years.

No matter what Emery and his blurred vision have to say about Shea McClellin’s effectiveness as a defensive end, the Bears are going to need two years to rebuild their

VIEWS Rick Morrissey defense. Next season wouldn’t be the best time to start over at quarterback.

Is that a defeatist attitude?

Shouldn’t you decide on a quarterback based on whether you think he can win you a Super Bowl? In a perfect world, yes. But keeping Cutler is a realist’s attitude. The reality is that the Bears are building something good on offense, with an offensive-minded coach in Marc Trestman and weapons such at Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery, Martellus Bennett and Matt Forte.

When it comes to public opinion of Cutler in Chicago, the choices are either good or evil. You can’t be kind of for him or kind of against him. And yet, that has nothing to do with his value to NFL teams. A team doesn’t even need irrefutable evidence before it gives a quarterback a ton of money. The position commands big money for anyone with skills. Ask the Ravens and Joe Flacco.

There’s a very good chance that my suggestion of offering Cutler a four-year contract instead of a six-year deal would be laughed out of the room by the quarterback’s camp. He can get a six-year contract with more guaranteed money somewhere – if not in Chicago, then somewhere else.

When the Bears line up against the Cowboys on Monday night, Josh McCown will be under center and Cutler will be on the sidelines because of a sprained ankle. Anoth-

er debate swirling around Cutler is whether the Bears should play him again if his ankle heals before the end of the season. The “no’’ crowd says there’s little benefit in it, especially if the team falls out of the playoff picture.

But we’re not talking about Aaron Rodgers and the Packers here.

Cutler isn’t the known quantity that Rodgers is, and the nascent Bears’ offense under Trestman isn’t the proven offense that the Packers’ is. The more time Cutler and his teammates spend together on the field, the better.

And let me be ghoulishly pragmatic here: If Cutler were to go down with a catastrophic knee injury, would you rather it happen now or next season, after he has signed that contract? This season, of course. It’s a cold business.

It figures to be a cold business Monday at Soldier Field, with the predicted game-time temperature at 17 and the wind chill at 2. The Bears will retire Mike Ditka’s number at halftime. I expect the coach to sign a parka endorsement deal before he walks onto the field.

Ditka once said that late Bears owner George Halas “tosses nickels around like manhole covers.’’

The franchise hasn’t changed all that much, so it will be fascinating to see if owner Virginia McCaskey, Halas’ daughter, signs off on a huge contract for a quarterback who hasn’t won anything yet.

But just know that if the Bears don’t, someone else will.

Bears probably need to win out to take division title • ARKUSH Continued from page B1 The reality is the Green Bay defense played its most complete game of the season and shut out the Falcons in the second half, while Matt Flynn settled in at quarterback and brought his club back. For whatever reason, Flynn is a different and much better QB with the Packers than he is anywhere else.

Remember, the Packers were 6-6 in 2010 before winning out all

EAGLES 34, LIONS 20 PHILADELPHIA – LeSean McCoy ran for a franchise-best 217 yards, including touchdowns of 57 and 40 yards, and Philadelphia overcame two TD returns by Jeremy Ross in a snowstorm to defeat Detroit (7-6).

Ross returned a punt 58 yards for a score and ran a kickoff 98 yards. But McCoy sprinted 57 yards up the middle for a tying TD, and Nick Foles connected with Riley Cooper on the 2-point conversion. Foles sneaked in from the 1 and Chris Polk had a 38-yard touchdown run to cap a 28-point fourth quarter for the Eagles (8-5).

Snow began falling two hours before kickoff and intensified after the game started. Workers used shovels and handheld blowers to clear off yard lines.

Conditions were so poor neither team tried a field goal, and there were 2-point conversion attempts after seven of the eight TDs. The Eagles, looking to go worst-to-first in the NFC East, won their fifth straight game and took over sole possession of first place. Dallas can make it a tie for the top spot with a victory against the Bears on Monday night.

The Lions have a half-game lead over the Bears in the NFC North.

BALTIMORE – Joe Flacco threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to rookie Marlon Brown with 4 seconds left to ice the win for Baltimore (7-6) over Minnesota. Brown’s catch concluded a five-play, 80-yard drive that took only 41 seconds.

It came after Matt Cassel threw a 79-yard touchdown pass to Cordarrelle Patterson with 45 seconds remaining. Just before that, Baltimore’s Jacoby Jones took a kickoff 77 yards for a score, which followed a 41-yard touchdown run by Toby Gerhart, who had replaced an injured Adrian Peterson (ankle) for Minnesota (3-9-1).

The ASSOCIATED PRESS Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson was hurt when he was tackled near the sideline on an icy field. It was a low hit that shelved New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski.

The result was a pair of right leg injuries for two of the NFL’s best players.

Peterson injured his right foot Sunday when he caught a short pass from Matt Cassel, headed to the right sideline and was tackled by Arthur Brown in the second quarter of Minnesota’s 29-26 loss at Baltimore.

“I haven’t seen the replay, but my foot was extended and kind of got rolled up, kind of like a horse-collar tackle type,” said Peterson, who is among the NFL leaders with 1,221 yards rushing. “I just felt it pop a couple times and the pain was excruciating. I came in and tried to tape it up again after getting the X-ray done. I just couldn’t do it with the push off.”

Peterson is expected to undergo an MRI on Monday. Asked If this could be a season-ending injury, the 2012 NFL MVP said: “Not at all. You should have seen me in here trying to get back out there. I kept my pads on, too, until the third quarter, until I finally was just like, ‘I’m not ready to go.’”

It was a much different situation in New England, which lost Gronkowski to a suspected torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during the third quarter of a 27-26 victory over Cleveland.

Gronkowski was hurt on a hit by Browns safety T.J. Ward after a 21-yard reception. Coach Bill Belichick said he was taken to a hospital for evaluation.

“We’ve sustained some pretty big injuries this year with really important, critical players,” Patriots quarterback Tom Brady said. “I think we all feel sorry for Rob, but I don’t think anyone feels sorry for the Patriots.”

Gronkowski missed the first six games of the season while recovering from offseason forearm and back surgeries. Wide receiver Danny Amendola, running back Shane Vereen and defensive players Vince Wilfork, Jerod Mayo and Tommy Kelly also have missed an extended amount of time for New England.

Vikings tight end John Carlson, tight end Nick Kasa and defensive tackle Vance Walker of the Raiders, and Dolphins running back Lamar Miller all sustained concussions. Falcons safety Thomas DeCoud departed in the first quarter of a 22-21 loss at Green Bay because of a head injury.

SUNDAY’S ROUNDUP

the way through the Super Bowl.

Will Aaron Rodgers be back next week?

The Packers close at Dallas, with Pittsburgh at home and then at Soldier Field.

And now the Bears are in a horse race, and a dogfight. They still probably need to win out to win the division. With Cleveland, Philly and the Packers left, it won’t be easy. But they now have a ton more control of their own destiny than they did going into Sunday.

Where is the best shot for the Lions’ loss the Bears still need? Probably next Monday night with the Ravens – also in a must-win situation in their own playoff chase – who’ve won three straight and four of their past five (the loss, of course, at Soldier Field) and will be coming to Ford Field.

After that, the Lions get the Giants at home and go to Minnesota the last day of the season, where it appears the Vikings will be without Adrian Peterson.

For what it’s worth, the last time the Lions won three straight was Weeks 14 through 16 of the 2011 season.

As for the Packers, the Bears have nothing to worry about. If they become the problem, the Bears can take care of them themselves on the final day of the season.

SAINTS 31, PANTHERS 13 NEW ORLEANS – Drew Brees passed for 313 yards and four touchdowns, helping New Orleans (10-3) beat Carolina (9-4) and regain sole possession of first place in the NFC South. Carolina’s winning streak ended at eight.

The Panthers’ defense had not allowed more than two touchdowns in a game this season until the Saints scored three in the second quarter.

PATRIOTS 27, BROWNS 26 FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Tom Brady threw two touchdown passes in the final 61 seconds, and New England recovered an onside kick to set up the comeback win against Cleveland (4-9).

The Patriots (10-3) cut the deficit to 26-21 on Brady’s 2-yard touchdown pass to Julian Edelman with 1:01 left. Cleveland received a 15-yard penalty on the play, then Kyle Arrington recovered the onside kick at the Cleveland 40-yard line.

Brady completed a 10-yard pass to Danny Amendola, then Leon McFadden was called for defensive pass interference in the end zone. That put the ball at the 1, where Brady hit Amendola again.

New England lost tight end Rob Gronkowski to a leg injury in the third quarter.

49ERS 19, SEAHAWKS 17 SAN FRANCISCO – Phil Dawson kicked a 22-yard field goal with 26 seconds remaining, and San Francisco held off the Seahawks, denying Seattle a chance to clinch the division at Candlestick Park.

Frank Gore broke a 51-yard gain with just more than four minutes left to set up the go-ahead 11-play, 76-yard drive as the 49ers (9-4) kept the playoff-bound Seahawks (11-2) from grabbing away the West in San Francisco.

BENGALS 42, COLTS 28 CINCINNATI – Andy Dalton threw for three touchdowns and ran for another as Cincinnati (9-4) beat Indianapolis (8-5) and remained perfect at home and in control of the AFC North.

The Bengals improved to 6-0 at Paul Brown Stadium on a cold, windy day: 28 degrees at kickoff with a wind chill of 19 and light flurries.

CHIEFS 45, REDSKINS 10 LANDOVER, Md. – Kansas City (10-3) scored on its first four possessions in the snow, sacked Robert Griffin III five times and Kirk Cousins once, and returned both a punt and a kickoff for a touchdown in routing Washington (3-10). Jamaal Charles ran 19 times for 151 yards for Kansas City.

CARDINALS 30, RAMS 10 GLENDALE, Ariz. – Carson Palmer completed 27 of 32 passes, 12 of them to Larry Fitzgerald, and Arizona (8-5) ended an eight-game losing streak against NFC West foes by beating St. Louis (5-8).

DOLPHINS 34, STEELERS 28 PITTSBURGH – Charles Clay caught two touchdown passes, including a 12-yard strike from Ryan Tannehill with 2:53 remaining, and Miami (7-6) held off Pittsburgh (5-8).

Antonio Brown raced into the end zone after a series of laterals on the final play, but officials ruled he stepped out of bounds before scoring.

JETS 37, RAIDERS 27 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Geno Smith threw a touchdown pass and ran for another score as New York (6-7) set a season high for points and stopped a three-game skid with a victory over Oakland (4-9).

Oakland has lost three straight overall, and 13 consecutive in the Eastern time zone.

CHARGERS 37, GIANTS 14 SAN DIEGO – Philip Rivers found rookie Keenan Allen for two of his three touchdown passes, and San Diego (6-7) kept alive its long-shot playoff hopes by beating New York (5-8).

ILLINOIS 81, AUBURN 62

Illini bounce back, take out anger against Auburn

By STEVE GREENBERG

crawling Saturday night with tens of thousands of Auburn football fans who were here for the SEC championship game.

They either didn’t know or didn’t care about the following afternoon’s basketball game against Illinois.

At least the several hundred Illini fans who were on hand got to see their team put in a first-half clinic. You think the second half at Georgia Tech was bad? Imagine how the Tigers (4-3) felt after an opening 20 minutes in which the Illini shot 60 percent from the field, played lockdown defense and rang up a 41-17 lead.

“We got off to a great start, maybe as good a start as we’ve had at both ends,” Groce said.

Next for Illinois

sgreenberg@suntimes.com ATLANTA – Jon Ekey used the word “frustrated.” Rayvonte Rice chose “mad,” then had second thoughts and watered it down to “disappointed.” Tracy Abrams went with a wordless eye-roll.

However they put it, the Illini had to be in a foul mood Tuesday after giving away a game at Georgia Tech. Five days later and only two miles from Georgia Tech’s home building, the Illini (8-1) took the floor at Philips Arena and routed Auburn, 81-62.

“All in all,” coach John Groce said, “I thought our response was terrific.”

Dartmouth at Illinois, 7 p.m.

Tuesday, AM-560 The circumstances surrounding this “road” game were odd, to say the least.

In the home of the Atlanta Hawks, whose fans are notoriously apathetic, Auburn – officially the home team – received no support whatsoever from the crowd.

The Auburn campus sits barely an hour and a half from Atlanta. Downtown was

“We probably played out best 20 minutes of the year in the first half.”

For a coach who’d called his team’s execution at Georgia Tech “pathetic,” this was a most welcome development.

Groce credited Abrams, whose effectiveness has been up and down all season, with sparking some of the best ball movement we’ve seen from the Illini. That enabled a team for which perimeter shooting isn’t exactly a big strength to knock down seven of 13 3-point attempts in the first half.

At the other end, Rice, Joe Bertrand and Kendrick Nunn AP photo took turns shutting down Auburn guard Chris Denson, the Auburn’s Jordan Granger and Illinois’ Joseph Bertrand (right) battle for SEC’s leading scorer. the rebound in front of Illinois’ Jon Ekey on Sunday in Atlanta.

ROSE BOWL: NO. 4 MICHIGAN ST. VS. NO. 5 STANFORD, JAN. 1

Michigan St., Stanford in centennial game

BCS CHAMPIONSHIP: NO. 1 FLORIDA STATE VS. NO. 2 AUBURN, JAN. 6

Florida State, Auburn usher out BCS era

By RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press As college football prepares for the final Bowl Championship Series, featuring a Florida State-Auburn championship game, it’s easy to see why the coming four-team playoff won’t solve all the postseason problems.

Heck, we might just miss the BCS. Maybe?

It sort of worked out this season. Top-ranked Florida State (13-0) was the only team to get through the regular season unbeaten, and the Seminoles did it in dominating fashion. Auburn (12-1) won the Southeastern Conference, and among the teams with imperfect records the Tigers’ resume is best.

“We all complain about the BCS, but isn’t it funny how often they get it right,” Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher said.

The pairings became official Sunday night when the final BCS standings came out. There was no question about 1 and 2.

It’ll be the ‘Noles and Tigers at the Rose Bowl on Jan. 6 for the national championship.

In the other marquee bowls: • Alabama will play Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl.

• Clemson will play Ohio State in the Orange Bowl.

• Michigan State will play Stanford in the Rose Bowl.

• Baylor will play UCF in the Fiesta Bowl.

Of course, Big 12 champion Baylor (11-1) and Big Ten champion Michigan State (121) might argue with that top two. But over 16 seasons college football fans have built up what

can be called BCS acceptance, learning to live with the fact that there is only room for two.

Fans of particularly aggrieved teams (2000 Miami, 2004 Auburn, 2008 Texas, just to name a few) still burn over the slights. Generally, though, by the time the championship game kicked off, most everybody was on board. And only eight times before the BCS did No. 1 play No. 2 in a bowl game.

“It’s been a remarkable seismic change for this sport,” executive director Bill Hancock said. “That was unthinkable before the BCS.” Now think about this season playing out under next season’s format. In the new world order known as the College Football Playoff, a selection committee will pick four teams to play in national semifinals. The winners play for the championship.

So how would a panel that includes Tom Osborne, Archie Manning and Condoleezza Rice sort out this season’s top four?

Florida State and Auburn, of course. And ... Baylor and Michigan State? But what about Pac-12 champion Stanford (11-2)? Sure the Cardinal have two losses, but among this season’s best teams, Stanford played the toughest schedule.

And then there is two-time defending champion Alabama (11-1).

“We’re not a natural playoff sport,” said Duke coach David Cutcliffe, who was the offensive coordinator at Tennessee when it won the first BCS title game against Florida State in the 1999 Fiesta Bowl. “I think we can make this work with four.”

PASADENA, Calif. – Michigan State and Stanford have been selected to ring in the Rose Bowl’s centennial.

The No. 4 Spartans will face the fifthranked Cardinal on Jan. 1 in the 100th edition of the Rose Bowl game, pitting two venerable programs in Pasadena’s traditional Midwest-West Coast intersectional matchup.

“It will be a great one,” Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said Sunday night.

Michigan State (12-1) upset Ohio State in the Big Ten championship game on Saturday to earn its first trip to Pasadena since Jan. 1, 1988, when the Spartans beat USC 20-17. Michigan State has won nine straight games heading into its fifth Rose Bowl berth.

Stanford (11-2) is back in Pasadena for the second straight season after trouncing Arizona State in the Pac-12 title game on Saturday. The powerful Cardinal held off Wisconsin 20-14 last season for the school’s first Rose Bowl victory in 40 years.

“Our guys have fond memories of it, but they’ve already started to say it:

AP photo

Michigan State’s Connor Cook and the rest of the Spartans will face Stanford in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1 in Pasadena, Calif.

Last year was last year, and we have to prepare this year completely different,” Stanford coach David Shaw said. “Michigan State has been on a phenomenal run, nine straight games, tough competition, and has come to play every week, and we know it’s going to be a great game.”

The Rose Bowl got a compelling matchup for the centennial game in the newly renovated jewel of a stadium nestled in Arroyo Seco. Two top-five teams with enthused fan bases will meet in a

bowl that’s been decided by fewer than 10 points in each of the last four seasons.

Both schools have been playing football since the late 19th century, and Stanford even played in what’s considered the first Rose Bowl game – a 49-0 loss to Michigan in what was called the “Tournament East-West football game” on Jan. 1, 1902, in Pasadena’s Tournament Park.

“There’s been a lot of talk about bookending the 100 years,” Shaw said. “Being in the first Rose Bowl game as Stanford University, and then coming back in the 100th, has been really exciting for our fans and for our alumni.”

While most of Stanford’s roster was at the Rose Bowl last season for a gritty win over the Badgers, the Spartans are a generation removed from their school’s last trip.

Michigan State will close the first 12win season in school history in sunny Southern California, and the Spartans are long overdue for the chance to bask in that sun and spotlight. After laboring in the shadow of Michigan and the Big Ten’s elite programs for decades, Michigan State has broken through under Dantonio, who went to the Rose Bowl in 1984 as a graduate assistant at Ohio State.

BCS Championship: 5 things to know Top-ranked Florida State and No. 2 Auburn will meet at the Rose Bowl on Jan. 6 in the final BCS title game.

Five things to know about the Seminoles and Tigers matchup: HEISMAN WATCH: Florida State star Jameis Winston is a huge favorite to win the Heisman Trophy on Saturday. He’d be just the second freshman to win the award, but the second straight to do it, joining Texas A&M’s Johnny Manziel. Winston is on pace to break the NCAA record for passer efficiency rating (190.1) and has already set records for yards passing (3,820) and TD passes (38) for a freshman. Auburn’s Tre Mason made a late push to be a finalist, too. Mason ran for 304 yards on 46 carries in Auburn’s SEC championship game win against Missouri and ranks ninth in the nation at 124.7 yards a game, and has scored 22 touchdowns.

COACHES: A pair of national coach of the year candidates in Florida State’s Jimbo Fisher and Auburn’s Malzahn. Fisher is in his fourth season since taking over for the great Bobby Bowden. The program has gotten steadily better and this year, it’s been vintage Seminoles. Malzahn is in his first year as head coach, but just two years ago he was Auburn’s offensive coordinator under Gene Chizik. He directed the offense that helped Auburn win the 2010 national championship, with Heisman winner Cam Newton.

DEFENSIVE DIFFERENCE: While both teams have offenses among the top-10 in the nation in yards per play – Florida State is No. 1 and Auburn is eighth – the Seminoles seem to have a huge advantage on the defensive side. They are second in the nation in yards per play allowed at 3.95, and have potential All-Americans at every level, including DT Timmy Jernigan, LB Telvin Smith and DB Lamarcus Joyner. Auburn’s defense ranks 95th in the country in yards per play allowed at 5.96, but this is a different kind of SEC. Offenses have ruled, and much like it has been in the Big 12 in recent years, defensive stats have gotten skewed by high-powered, up-tempo offenses.

TEMPO: Auburn likes to go fast and few coaches use tempo as well as Malzahn. The Tigers average 71 plays per game with their spread attack, but would like to be in the 80s. Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher is in no rush at all. Running more of a typical pro-style offense, the Seminoles average 67 plays per game – which makes their prolific offense even more impressive.

HEAD-TO-HEAD: There’s not much recent history between these teams.

The last time they played was 1990 and Auburn won 20-17. Their only bowl meeting was the 1989 Sugar Bowl and Florida State took that one 22-14. The Tigers lead the overall series 13-4-1, though Bowden was 4-5 against Auburn.

Explanation Key The BCS Average is calculated by averaging the percent totals of the Harris Interactive, USA Today Coaches and Computer polls. Team percentages are derived by dividing a team’s actual voting points by a maximum 2625 possible points in the Harris Interactive Poll and 1550 possible points in the USA Today Coaches Poll.

Six computer rankings are used to determine the overall computer component. The highest and lowest ranking for each team is dropped, and the remaining four are added and divided to produce a Computer Rankings Percentage. The six computer ranking providers are Anderson & Hester, Richard Billingsley, Colley Matrix, Kenneth Massey, Jeff Sagarin, and Peter Wolfe. Each computer ranking accounts for schedule strength in its formula.

Husband’s video gaming leaves wife on sidelines Dear Abby: I was laid off from work, but my husband, “Keith,” works full time in a factory. We live with his parents. By the time Keith gets home from work and gets cleaned up, it’s time to eat dinner. Immediately afterward, we always follow the same routine: We go in our bedroom, and he goes on the computer to play video games, while I sit and watch TV and play on my phone.

We love each other and rarely disagree about things, but this isn’t fun for me. I have told Keith I feel ignored and I’d love to do something WITH him. He

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips says because our town is smallish, there’s not a lot to do that doesn’t cost money.

Keith is into the video games, so much so that when we first met, he’d sit in his bedroom and play for hours on end. We’re planning a vacation in the next month or so, so it’s not like we do nothing at all. But I don’t know how to improve our situation. – Calling For Help In Kokomo, Ind. Dear Calling For Help: After

a hard day’s work, your husband may just want to sit down and relax. But that doesn’t mean you couldn’t schedule some activity together on a weekend – hiking, skating, kayaking, going to an art show or seeing what’s scheduled at the convention center.

You also could make a date with other young married couples, or occasionally schedule a girls’ night out with some of your female friends.

I agree it’s important for you and your husband not to get into a rut. That’s why you need to budget so you CAN get out and have some

Stomach, brain always communicating Dear Dr. K: Whenever I’m stressed out, my stomach clenches up in knots. Why does it do that?

Dear Reader: A particularly sad experience is described as “gut-wrenching.” Hearing about a gruesome crime makes you “feel nauseated.” An upcoming presentation gives you “butterflies in your stomach.”

We use these expressions because anger, anxiety, sadness, elation and other emotions can trigger symptoms in our gastrointestinal tract.

The brain has a direct effect on the stomach. Even the thought of eating can release the stomach’s juices before food gets there. This connection goes both ways. A troubled gut can send signals to the brain, just as a troubled brain can send signals to the gut. Therefore, your distressed gut can be as much the cause as the product of anxiety, stress or depression.

Your brain and the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are intimately connected. The gut is controlled by the enteric nervous system (ENS), a complex system of about 100 million nerves that starts in the brain and ends in the gut. It controls

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff every aspect of digestion, so it’s no surprise that when the brain is disturbed, the gut can be, as well.

The nerve endings of the ENS are embedded in the gut wall. Those nerves not only send messages from the brain to the gut; they also send messages from the gut to the brain.

There is a rich dialogue between gut and brain during the entire journey of food through the 30-foot-long digestive tract.

This two-way communication explains why you stop eating when you’re full. It’s because nerve cells in your gut let your brain know your stomach has expanded. It also explains why anxiety over this morning’s exam has ruined your appetite for breakfast. The stress activates your “fight or flight” response, which inhibits secretion of stomach juices and reduces blood flow to your gut, as more blood is diverted from the stomach and into your muscles.

Emotions cause genuine chemical and physical responses in the body that can result in pain and discomfort. For example, stress can affect movement and contractions of the GI tract.

The gut is a tube containing circular muscles that move food down your digestive system. Normally the muscles all work in a coordinated way, like oarsmen rowing a shell. When, instead, the muscles are not coordinated and start to fight each other, pain can result.

Stress also makes all parts of the body more vulnerable to both inflammation and infection. Inflammation and infection in the gut produce pain, gas, bleeding, nausea, diarrhea and other symptoms.

If ongoing stress is causing frequent GI problems for you, treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation techniques and hypnosis might help. These treatments can help reduce anxiety and encourage healthy behaviors to help you cope with pain and discomfort.

fun together a few times a month.

Dear Abby: Several years ago, I met “Holly,” the love of my life. We married and had a child. Soon after our son’s birth, I found out Holly had a boyfriend on the side. Our divorce was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. Because of her instability, I was granted custody of our son.

Since the divorce, I have developed an attraction to men. Is this normal after a nasty divorce? I never thought of myself as gay or bi until about a year afterward. I know that I never again want to experience

the pain I went through.

I have been celibate now for almost four years, and I’m trying my best to set a good example for my son.

I miss having someone to hold and share life with, but in the area where I live, having a gay relationship would cause me to lose my son. Any advice you can offer would be appreciated. – Is This Normal? In Arizona Dear Normal: It is important that you determine exactly who you are, whether it is a walking-wounded heterosexual, bisexual or homosexual. A licensed psychotherapist can help you with this, and do it in

confidence.

Regardless of your sexual orientation, you should realize when breakups happen between couples – and that includes male/ male, female/female and heterosexual – there is usually heartbreak involved.

However, without risk, there can be no reward, and celibacy is not the answer.

If it turns out you are, indeed, gay, then you should consider relocating to a more gay-friendly area.

As regular readers know, I do a lot of bridge teaching. In the summer, I travel around the country running “bridge camps without tents.”

They usually last three days, but I did one for only two days in Birmingham, Ala., in October. In the winter, I teach in Florida and my car gets almost as good a workout as I do.

The irst lesson I taught this season in Florida, early last month, featured deals in which declarer had to handle the trump suit with care. This week, let’s look at six of them.

First, how should South try to make four spades after West takes the irst three tricks with his high clubs, then shifts to a heart?

In the auction, South might rebid three notrump, which works well here as long as North takes a spade inesse.

And, yes, South might initially respond two spades, a strong jump

shift showing 13-16 high-card points and either an excellent onesuiter or a good twosuiter with length in both responder’s suit and opener’s suit.

South, who needs the rest of the tricks, must draw trumps without loss. With eight cards missing only the queen, declarer should inesse, not play for the drop -“eight ever.” But should he inesse immediately, or only after irst cashing the ace?

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

! !

TODAY - You’ll have plenty of ideas this year, but before you make any moves, make sure your concepts are sound. False information can lead you down a deceptive path. Focus more on home, family and projects that you know will bring you success.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Think matters through today. Uncertainty is the enemy. Remain calm and be mindful of what is going on around you. Make changes at home that will add to your comfort and joy.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- An unusual plan will end up working out quite well. Innovation can bring greater opportunity to work alongside individuals who can inspire and motivate you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You need to concentrate on improving your income, status or reputation. Look over contracts or paperwork that need to be addressed before the year comes to a close.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Keep your ears and your mind open today. It would be best to move at your own speed without relying on anyone to make choices for you. A good investment will pay off. Believe in your talents.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Know ahead of time what needs to be done to avoid being frazzled by the unexpected. A moneymaking idea can be launched.

Keep personal issues in perspective. Don’t overspend on luxury items.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Add a personal touch to whatever you do, and it will be appreciated.

Make a promise to someone you want to spend more time with, and the momentum generated will take care of the rest.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Don’t leave anything to chance. Stay on top of what needs to be done and deliver on your commitments. It’s not a good time to mix business with pleasure.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Venture down avenues that could lead you to learn something unusual or teach you about a culture or philosophy that you know little about. Plan a romantic adventure.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If you don’t like your current situation, do something to change it. Explore new people, places and pursuits to get you thinking about future prospects.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Get into the mainstream. Enjoy life and the activities, events and people that interest you. Look for a way to turn your thoughts into reality. Don’t get angry -- get moving.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Dig deep, ask questions and get the answers you need to make a big move.

Overly hasty action will lead to an oversight. Know your limits and rely on your experience.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Get your ideas and projects off the drawing board and into the boardroom.

Don’t hesitate to express your beliefs, attitudes and opinions. You have what it takes to excel, so be confident in everything that you do.
