Looking back at the attacks of Sept. 11 after 15 years Has it really been 15 years?

At the time it almost seemed impossible that we could get to the place where we are now, where life seems “normal” and a sense of security, while not absolute, has largely returned.

Maybe it’s because the memories remain so vivid that the passage of time seems so remarkable. Like so many others, I remember where I was when I heard about the Sept. 11 attacks, the disbelief I felt as the enormity of the events became clear on a bright, sunny Tuesday.

I was fortunate in many ways on that day.

My loved ones and I were all a safe distance away. I was also a reporter at the Northwest Herald at the time, and there was work I could throw myself into, carried away on the tide of the awful news that swallowed up the whole world.

When you’re busy, there’s not time to despair.

I was dispatched to the train station in downtown Crystal Lake – it was the only one in the city then – and interviewed people who had left jobs in Chicago early after the Loop was evacuated as a precaution.

I remember talking to a man who was drinking a beer on a bench with a distant look on his face, who told me at times like these, there’s just not much you can do.

We put out an extra edition of the Northwest Herald that day, then kept working. The tragedy was a story, the biggest of our lives, a monster with so many angles. I was exactly a year into my career at the paper, and had the luxury of following orders from editors.

Even in McHenry County, there was an odd sense of vulnerability, which would be reinforced less than a month later when fighter jets broke the sound barrier as they scrambled to

EDITOR’S NOTE Eric Olson escort a commercial flight with an unruly passenger headed for O’Hare International Airport.

So many things came after 9/11. Nightmares.

A procession of obituaries of the dead, innocents who had been going about their business, who left behind husbands and wives and children and unfinished work. War. That war continues today, and I worry it might not end in my lifetime. I fear we as Americans have grown complacent about it, too.

But then, complacency is another sign that things have, by and large, returned to “normal.”

It’s a different normal, though. America was changed by the events of Sept. 11, 2001, and although it was a horror, the tragedy did for a time bring us together.

The anniversary still does. It’s a day where all of us can take a moment to remember, not just where we were and what we did that day, but also all the people who lost loved ones, who suffered post-traumatic stress for months and years afterward, who signed up to serve in the armed forces.

Fifteen years, and I remember it like it was yesterday.

TODAY’S TALKER Apple is shifting focus of car project

SAN FRANCISCO – Apple may not become an automaker, but it still wants to develop its own self-driving technology.

The iPhone-maker’s automotive project, long an open secret in Silicon Valley, is shifting to focus on creating the technology for an autonomous vehicle that doesn’t require a human driver. The new direction apparently doesn’t foreclose the possibility that Apple might someday build its own car, but it opens the door to partnering with other

The new emphasis was confirmed Friday by a person with knowledge of the project, after the New York Times reported that Apple is “rethinking” its automotive strategy. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the project.

Apple had no official comment Friday and has consistently declined to confirm its automotive ambitions.

SURVIVOR’S STORY

Retired Army lieutenant colonel helped transfer wounded at Pentagon on 9/11

By JORDYN REILAND

M

jreiland@shawmedia.com

any students in this year’s high school freshman class were not alive on Sept. 11, 2001. Those just a few years older were too young to recall with any certainty the events of the day.

As years go by, more and more students are further removed from the day’s events, leaving it up to those who can recall to fill in the gaps.

And so 15 years after the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon,

it’s people such as retired Army Lt. Col. and Crystal Lake resident Ryan Yantis who want to make sure Americans never forget.

Yantis worked at the Pentagon and was standing at the site of the impact minutes before a plane crashed into the government building.

After finishing a morn- Ryan ing meeting later than Yantis expected, Yantis and several of his colleagues were drawn to reports of a fire or airplane crash at the

World Trade Center.

It didn’t take long for him to realize the United States was under attack after the second plane crashed into the second tower.

On his way to another meeting with a higher-ranking officer, Yantis got into an argument with him about the direction they were headed. After arriving at the meeting just a few minutes later, American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the spot where he had been standing and arguing.

Yantis, a public affairs officer for the Army, took on a new role that morning

Memory of Deputy Dwight Maness lives on one year after his death

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – When McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Dwight Maness died, his wife, Sue Maness, didn’t want him or his work to be forgotten.

One year later, Maness’s memory has lived on throughout McHenry County.

“You say the name Dwight Maness, and everybody knows who you are talking about,” Sue Maness said. “I just want my husband to be remembered always.”

Dwight Maness died Sept. 14, 2015, nearly one year after Maness the Holiday Hills shooting.

He was 47.

He and partner Deputy Khalia Satkiewicz responded in October 2014 to a reported domestic incident at the Holiday Hills home of Scott B. Peters, 53, who fired more than a dozen rounds at the two officers.

Peters eventually was sentenced to 135 years in prison.

Maness’ femur was shattered and a vein in his leg was severed in the shooting. After 15 surgeries, he never regained the ability to walk. He spent several months recovering before he developed a blood clot in his lungs and died suddenly during a physical therapy appointment.

Earlier this year, Maness’ name was etched onto the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, D.C., and he was honored in Springfield at the State Police Memorial Ceremony.

He retired with the rank of sergeant first class.

“It was a real important thing to him,” she said.

Sue Maness said she would take her husband to visit area veterans, especially after the shooting. And after he died, she said she knew she wanted to carry that interest and compassion on in his memory.

Community members participated in the first annual Dwight “Maddog” Maness Veterans Assistance Fund Motorcycle Run on Saturday, complete with a pig roast, cash bar, live music, vendors and raffles.

All proceeds went to the Dwight Maness Veterans Assistance Fund to help struggling veteran’s who don’t qualify for federal assistance programs. Sue Maness

750 Cucina Rustica will feature 750-degree brick oven

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com CARY – When 750 Cucina Rustica opens in downtown Cary, co-owner Sallie LoBue said she hopes people will come to enjoy family time, a date, a celebration or unwind after work.

The Italian restaurant will feature a 750-degree brick oven and plans to open in mid-October at 7 Jandus Road, which was previously occupied by Galati’s restaurant, LoBue said.

The 3,300-square-foot space is undergoing a $300,000 renovation, LoBue said. When finished, it will have a “rustic Italian” theme, LoBue said, with custom wainscoting with reclaimed wood from Barn Wood Studio in Crystal Lake.

“We’ve designed it with the intent to be very family-friendly, and I think just the design of the space is conducive to that,” LoBue said.

Separated from the main dining area, which seats about 96, is a video gaming space that will have five ter-

minals, and a bar with an entrance off Spring Street.

LoBue will operate the restaurant with her husband, Massimo LoBue; father-in-law, Filippo LoBue; and mother-in-law, Antonia LoBue. The family is also part-owners of Incontro A Tavola in South Barrington and ZaZa’s Tavola Italiana in Lake Barrington, Sallie LoBue said.

Sallie LoBue’s husband and in-laws all were born in Italy and have a large influence on the food.

The menu is designed around the brick oven, and will include pizza and pasta dishes, some served in the castiron bakeware they were cooked in, Sallie LoBue said. Items including baked rigatoni, short rib ragu and arancini also will be on the menu.

“A lot of the stuff is really just food we’ve grown up with,” Sallie LoBue said.

The restaurant will have a staff of about 22 people and start off being open for dinner. In the spring, the restaurant will likely expand to lunch hours

and open its outside dining space off Spring Street, Sallie LoBue said.

At its meeting Tuesday, the Cary Village Board unanimously approved outdoor seating at the restaurant and a liquor license. Trustee Rick Dudek said he was remaining consistent with not supporting video gaming in the village, and was the sole no vote to allowing video gaming at the establishment.

At the Committee of the Whole meeting before the village board meeting, officials discussed the village’s revolving loan program, which has not been used since 2006.

Staff presented a new recapture strategy plan for the program to the board, which will then have to be approved by the State of Illinois before coming back to the village board for official approval, Cary Director of Community Development Brian Simmons said.

The restaurant is asking for a $125,000 loan that would be paid back monthly in a seven-year term with interest, according to city documents.

Family Alliance in Huntley to host caregiver conference

• MEMORY

Continued from page A4 said the fund partners with TLS Veterans, who have selected two families to assist with any bills that need to be paid to help get them “back on their feet.”

“I never realized the veterans come home and they’re kind of forgotten about,” she said. “We shouldn’t have homeless veterans, it’s just so wrong.”

Dwight Maness and his family have also been honored with a road sign near where they lived for nearly a decade.

McHenry Police Deputy Chief John Birk, who knew Maness, filed an application with the city to request a sign honoring Maness. In the application, Birk said Maness is an example of someone who spent a lifetime serving others, and that McHenry should honor his work and ultimate sacrifice so all residents remember who he was and what he did for the county.

Now a sign is located at the intersection of Reagan Boulevard and Lincoln Road in McHenry to remind

Restaurant destroyed by tornado reopens Grubsteakers was destroyed in April 9 tornado that hit Rochelle

By ERIC R. OLSON

eolson@shawmedia.com

Earleen Hinton – ehinton@shawmedia.com

Grubsteakers owner Ava Mirtoska stands in the middle of one of the restaurant’s new dining areas. The restaurant in Rochelle opened this week.

ROCHELLE – It was a long 17 months for Ava Mirtoska, owner of Grubsteakers Restaurant.

The business she’s run for almost 12 years was destroyed by a tornado on April 9, 2015, the same storm that later tore through Fairdale in northwestern DeKalb County, where it destroyed several homes and killed two people.

This week, after more than a year of working part-time jobs and contract work, Mirtoska reopened Grubsteakers in a new building at the same location at the northeast corner of state Routes 64 and 251. It’s been a pleasure to be reunited with regulars, who begin arriving when the restaurant opens at 6 a.m.

“Pretty much all of them have been here, and they’re glad to be back, and they’re very happy to be back home,” Mirtoska said from the restaurant Thursday afternoon, the sound of dishes and flatware audible in the background. “That’s what all of them pretty much tell me, our home is back to normal now.”

For Mirtoska, the feeling is mutual.

“I’ve been in the place close to 12 years, I really like to be here and it makes me feel good to be around family,” she said. “This is my family.”

The restaurant, several vehicles in its parking lot, and

A brand-new Grubsteakers Restaurant is set to reopen this week. The landmark restaurant was destroyed by the EF-4 tornado that swept through Ogle County. The restaurant has added a few new items inspired by the tornado.

Continued from page A12

several nearby homes were smashed by the twister before it moved on toward Fairdale, destroying farm buildings and homes along the way.

Two weeks after the storm, Mirtoska was recognized by the Ogle County Board for her actions that night: She saw the storm approaching and, with just minutes to spare, ushered her customers and employees into a storm cellar.

About a dozen people rode out the storm with only minor scrapes and were rescued a couple of hours later by firefighters.

One customer who Rochelle police say did not go into the cellar was 68-year-old Michael McDonald of Whiting, Indiana, who would later be charged with stealing almost $1,000 from the restaurant’s cash register that night. McDonald pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 18 months’ supervision earlier this year.

After the disaster, the rebuilding work began. Months were spent planning and getting the necessary permits before construction began on the new restaurant in December. The community pitched in with several fundraisers to help with rebuilding costs.

Debris from the restaurant was scattered by the EF-4 tornado, with signs, credit-card receipts and menus being found as far as 60 miles away. Mirtoska said some people have returned items to her, but she hasn’t really incorporated anything from the old place into the new building.

The menu does include a few new items: a tornado burger, tornado skillet, and even a tornado waffle with fruit, whipped cream and chocolate syrup.

“It’s a lot better,” Mirtoska said. “It fits more people now, and, of course, everything is new.”

Law enforcement takes part in school shooting drill 10 towns represented in shooter training exercise at high school

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com MARENGO – Police officers, S.W.A.T teams and other first responders swarmed Marengo High School on Saturday morning to conduct an active shooter drill.

More than 10 agencies were represented at the drill, including departments from Elgin, Marengo, Woodstock, Huntley, Hebron and Crystal Lake. The McHenry County Sheriff’s Department and the county S.W.A.T team also were involved, along with the state agency, Illinois Law Enforcement Alarm System. Students and administration from schools in Marengo also participated.

Continual training is essential to ensure that officers are prepared for the worst, but training sessions of this scale happen about once a year. Last year, a similar training took place in Cary,McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Aimee Knope said.

“Physically, there is a ton of resources here,” she said. “We need to train in the

event that a mass incident does happen, to make sure all the policies, procedures and tactics are aligned.”

Marengo Fire and Rescue District and the Marengo Police Department spearheaded the drill. School shootings aren’t necessarily common, but when they do occur, there are typically many victims. School buildings also have a unique design, so it’s good to brush up on skills and make sure that all officials are on the same page when entering an emergency situation, said Capt.

John Kimmel of the Marengo Fire and Rescue District.

“With events that we have had throughout the United States over the past few years, we have been looking for new tactics to utilize to get to patients quicker and provide care quicker,” Kimmel said. “We have identified things we can do to aid the situation and make survivability more likely.

This was the first test.”

The drill took several hours, some of it outside in the rain Saturday morning. But it was deemed a success, particularly since its the first of its size in Marengo, Kimmel said.

“We have identified some areas we need to improve on, but if we did the drill perfectBrittany Keeperman – bkeeperman@shawmedia.com ly the first time, there would be no point in Lawenforcement officials swarm Marengo High School on Saturday to condoing the drill,” Kimmel said. “We want to duct an active shooter drill.

Police dog served with department from 2006 to 2014

– a muscle tissue disease. He was on anti-inflammatories and had completed chiropractic care at a local police dog training studio, TOPS in Dog Training in Grayslake, where many area police dogs and handlers go for ongoing training.

It was eventually time to retire, which Dixon said the dog wasn’t too pleased with. He whined at the door when Dixon left for work and sat patiently waiting for his handler’s return, as if he wanted to be back on the beat, Dixon said.

“Even up to a few days before he had the issues, I’d come home through the garage door and he’d be sitting there waiting for me,” he said.

The department has no immediate plans to obtain another police dog, because of the expense. Dixon plans to read a eulogy and share photos with the Harvard City Council at its next meeting, he said.

“A lot of people donated a lot of money for him and were excited about what we did,” Dixon said. “I owe it to them and to Hunter to let them know about his passing.”

HARVARD – Hunter was a good boy.

Sgt. Stephen Dixon, of the Harvard Police Department, laid a good friend and fellow officer to rest Wednesday after more than a decade together.

Hunter the German shepherd was 14 years old and retired – the city’s first and only K-9 officer. He was imported from Germany when he was less than 2 and worked with Dixon from 2006 to 2014.

“He was happy and a sharp dog to the end. That’s the hard thing, when the body goes before the mind does,” Dixon said. “A lot of people think a police dog is this big, mean dog that goes around biting people.

They don’t see the other side, where they are focused and obedient. The work ethic is amazing.”

The city didn’t have a K-9 unit when Dixon began with the department in the early 2000s. It’s a pricey endeavor.

The cost of the dog and training alone can climb past $10,000, not to mention the addition of a car that can fit a cage. Police dogs are typically pre-trained before import and then go through a three-month program with their handlers after arrival at the department. Annual maintenance training also is expected, Dixon said.

But community fundraising and budgeting made the addition possible. It was a welcome dynamic.

Hunter once alerted officers to 1,000 pounds of marijuana in a garage in Harvard. The street value was about $9 million, Dixon said.

The dog also completed more than 500 searches and did school and Milk Day demonstrations over the course of his career.

But Hunter had health problems such as hip dysplasia and myopathy

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com • Sunday, September 11, 2016

Wartime images often portray grim scenes of destruction, but much of the art of World War II was purposeful and colorful. The motivations behind the art varied, some were political or satirical, while much of it was also motivational and patriotic, such as the iconic poster of Rosie the Riveter.

Some of this art was presented as comics with the same motivations. There were many cartoonists of the era, notably Bill Mauldin, Dr. Seuss and Rube Goldberg.

Across the “pond” there was an English cartoonist named Stil who good-naturedly shared his impressions of the Yanks in comics. While many of his comics showed the Yanks on leave or “R&R,” the artist shared that he enjoyed many characteristics of the American people, specifically a “wholehearted ability to enjoy a laugh at their own expense.”

McHENRY – Emma Hocin of McHenry has already had two major heart surgeries before the age of 1.

Just 8 months old, she was born with aortic bicuspid stenosis and mitral arcade stenosis with mitral valve regurgitation.

“It’s a birth defect on her valves and heart,” said Emma’s mother, Katie Hocin. “However, we didn’t know about it right away, and we found out after a two-month checkup when we discovered she had a heart murmur.”

Katie shares the same condition as her daughter, but Katie said Emma’s condition is much worse.

Emma’s first surgery was on July 8, while the second took place Sept. 2.

Emma is currently at the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, where both surgeries have been performed.

“Her first surgery she blew the doctors away because they had prepared us to be in the hospital for about 30 days and she went home in four days,” Katie said.

For the second surgery, they re-

placed the mitral valve with a mechanical valve. However, Katie explained that the mechanical valve is just a temporary solution, not a permanent fix. Doctors told Katie and her husband, Jason, that they are 99 percent sure Emma will need a heart transplant down the road.

“Before the second surgery, we spent about 10 days in the hospital trying to decide if doctors should replace the valve or have a heart transplant,” Katie said. “They decided to implant a mechanical valve, hoping that this surgery gives her another three to five years before a transplant takes place.”

While Katie said it has taken a little longer for Emma to recover from the second surgery, she said her daughter has recently been doing better.

“It’s so nice to see her finally smile again,” Katie said.

A GoFundMe page was setup in June to help pay for the Hocin family’s medical bills. To date, the fundraising page has raised more than $7,500. Katie said she is grateful for all Photo provided by Katie Hocin the support from friends and family members, especially Emma’s grand- Just 8 months old, Emma Hocin of McHenry was born with a birth defect on her heart and parents, Terrilyn and Ryan Welch. valves, resulting in two major heart surgeries before her first birthday.

what I was able to witness other people do in very tough conditions on Sept. 11,” he said.

As a survivor, Yantis spends a lot of his time talking with students and those of all ages across the country about his experiences and lessons on that day.

He said that because so many of the students he speaks to were not alive or too young to understand all that went on that day, talking about what happened is crucial to not only remember, but to understand as well. This, he said, he knows well having teenage daughters.

“Being in a room with a survivor affords these kids the opportunity to touch a living artifact,” he said.

“We’re living source material to help people understand what it was like being there.”

Because Sept. 11 was not even two decades ago, Yantis said historians and history books are catching up and still researching, especially because some of the information is still classified.

And as a history major himself, he said he recognizes the importance of remembering the past.

“If you don’t know what your history is you don’t have a foundation for the future,” Yantis said.

STATE

Elgin mental health center to serve prisoners

By IVAN MORENO

The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Part of a mental health center in suburban Chicago is being repurposed to provide treatment to Illinois inmates who have serious mental illnesses, Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration announced Friday.

The move is part of a settlement from a 2007 lawsuit against Illinois that resulted in the state being ordered to provide better care for its mentally ill inmates.

An agreement between the Illinois Departments of Corrections and Human Services will change two sections of the Elgin Mental Health Center to accommodate 44 beds for inmates who require inpatient care. The transition will happen over the next four months, according to a copy of the agreement.

Rauner’s administration hailed

“Prisons were not designed to be mental health facilities, but we must adjust to this reality. This new inpatient treatment program will allow us to provide focused care for seriously mentally ill offenders and help them deal with daily stressors of a prison environment.”

John Baldwin, Illinois Department of Corrections director the plan as a positive step to improve how mentally ill inmates are treated.

But the state’s largest employee union, which represents the workers at Elgin, said the change comes at the cost of beds that provide services to the public.

“Prisons were not designed to be mental health facilities, but we must adjust to this reality,” said John Baldwin, director of the Illinois Department of Corrections. “This new inpatient treatment program will allow us

to provide focused care for seriously mentally ill offenders and help them deal with daily stressors of a prison environment.”

Elgin currently has 344 beds for people who were deemed unfit for trial or were found not guilty by reason of insanity, and an additional 75 are “civil” beds, meaning they’re meant to provide mental health services to the public.

Rauner’s office said no service reductions to the public are expected, and

access drugs that can cure the potentially fatal disease.

The Chicago Tribune reported the state relaxed a 2-year-old policy that had limited drug coverage to just the sickest patients, or those with stage 4 liver scarring.

Now, Medicaid will cover drug costs for those with stage 3 scarring.

John Hoffman is a spokesman for the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services. He told the Tribune the previous policy was “designed to provide care within the state’s fiscal restraints for those facing the most need.”

News from across the state Chicago police solving fewer killings than other cities

CHICAGO – Chicago police are solving homicides at a far lower rate than their counterparts in some other major cities, which may reflect how hard it is for detectives to crack the culture of silence surrounding the violence committed by the city’s street gangs.

Of the 432 homicides committed between Jan. 1 and Aug. 16 of this year, the department has solved 92, or 21 percent of them, the Chicago Tribune reported.

When homicides committed in all years are added in, the department said the clearance rate is about 30 percent. But even that figure is lower than the 49 percent rate in Philadelphia and 56 percent in Houston, which ranks just behind Chicago in terms of population size.

Experts said one reason so few are solved is that, as police have long said, so many are related to gangs in the poor neighborhoods where most of the shootings occur. They said witnesses who live in these neighborhoods are afraid to come forward out of fear of retaliation and a gang culture in which gang members have been historically unwilling to cooperate with police.

that civil patients currently in Elgin will have been discharged by the time the transition is finalized or transferred to other facilities in the state.

But Anders Lindall, spokesman for the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees in Chicago, the union representing state workers, said the changes at Elgin will wipe out 50 beds that hundreds of people use every year.

Lindall said there’s already fewer places for people to go for mental health services in the Chicago area and the 14 counties the Elgin center serves. He agreed with the need to provide mental health services to inmates outside of prison, but added that “it has to come from expanding capacity.”

“The Rauner administration should not cannibalize what little capacity for mental health services still remains,” he said.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS John Hinckley Jr. leaves mental hospital for Va.

WASHINGTON – The man who tried to assassinate President Ronald Reagan has been released from a Washington mental hospital for good, more than 35 years after the shooting.

A spokeswoman for the District of Columbia’s Department of Mental Health said early Saturday that all patients scheduled to leave St. Elizabeths Hospital had been discharged. John Hinckley Jr. was among those scheduled for discharge.

A federal judge ruled in late July that the 61-year-old Hinckley is not a danger to himself or the public and can live full time at his mother’s home in Williamsburg.

Analysis: Syria deal offers hope; Russia calling shots

WASHINGTON – Saturday’s deal to renew a nationwide truce in Syria, open aid routes and establish a U.S.-Russian military partnership may be the best hope yet to end the brutal five-year civil war. It is also full of potential pitfalls and leaves Moscow with far more power than Washington to determine whether there can be lasting peace.

Careful to note the possibility for failure, Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov were nevertheless upbeat as they announced the agreement after a

marathon negotiating session in Geneva that culminated dozens of one-on-one conversations over the past several months.

Spurred on by the violence that has enveloped the Syrian city of Aleppo – intense airstrikes were reported there Saturday – the two diplomats forged a pact they say departs from previous unsuccessful attempts to halt the bloodshed.

Yet the new blueprint appears to suffer from a fundamental imbalance common to the earlier efforts.

If U.S.-backed or other rebels fighting Syrian President Bashar Assad break the cease-fire, Russia could threaten to respond militarily or allow his forces to retaliate. But if Assad breaks the cease-fire, the U.S. has no clear enforcement stick.

Clinton says her ‘Deplorables’ comment is ‘grossly generalistic’

By CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. – Hillary Clinton said Saturday that she was wrong to put half of Donald Trump’s supporters in a “basket of deplorables,” but she didn’t back down from describing his campaign as largely built on prejudice and paranoia. The Republican accused her of a “grotesque attack on American voters.”

Less than 24 hours after she made the comments at a private New York City fundraiser, Clinton said in a statement, “last night I was ‘grossly generalistic’ and that’s never a good idea. I regret saying ‘half’ – that was wrong.”

But she argued that the word “deplorable” was reasonable to describe much of Trump’s campaign.

“He has built his campaign largely on prejudice and paranoia and given a national platform to hateful views and voices, including by retweeting fringe bigots with a few dozen followers and spreading their message to 11 million people,” the Democratic nominee said.

Responding in a statement, Trump said it was “disgraceful that Hillary Clinton makes the worst mistake of the political season and instead of owning up to this grotesque attack on American voters, she tries to turn it around with a pathetic rehash of the words and insults used in her failing campaign?”

Trump added that Clinton was showing “bigotry and hatred for millions of Americans,” arguing that she was “incapable to serve as President of the United States.”

Clinton, who has said she is the candidate to unify a divided country, made the “deplorables” comment at an LGBT fundraiser Friday night at a New York City restaurant, with about 1,000 people in attendance. She has made similar comments recently, including on an Israeli television station.

“To just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into

The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic – you name it,” she said, before stressing that other Trump supporters are frustrated and need sympathy.

Trump and his supporters quickly pounced on the remark, arguing that it revealed Clinton as disconnected from struggling Americans.

“Wow, Hillary Clinton was SO INSULTING to my supporters, millions of amazing, hard-working people. I think it will cost her at the polls!”

Trump said in a tweet.

Running mate Mike Pence, in remarks at the Values Voter conference in Washington, shot back: “The truth of the matter is that the men and women who support Donald Trump’s campaign are hard-working Americans, farmers, coal miners, teachers, veterans, members of our law enforcement community, members of every class of this country who know that we can make America great again.”

Of course, while Clinton is taking heat for her comment, Trump’s brand is controversy.

At a rally in Pensacola, Florida, on Friday, he said Clinton is “so protected” that “she could walk into this arena right now and shoot somebody with 20,000 people watching, right smack in the middle of the heart. And she wouldn’t be prosecuted.”

Clinton’s rhetorical stumble came as the candidates head into the final two months of the campaign, with Trump trying to make up ground be-

fore the Nov. 8 election.

Clinton has not let the media into many private fundraisers, but press was allowed in to hear her remarks Friday.

At the New York restaurant, Clinton bemoaned the people she described as “deplorables,” saying “unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up. He has given voice to their websites that used to only have 11,000 people – now how 11 million.

He tweets and retweets their offensive hateful mean-spirited rhetoric. Now, some of those folks – they are irredeemable, but thankfully they are not America,” said Clinton, who was the country’s top diplomat during President Barack Obama’s first term.

Clinton then pivoted and tried to characterize the other half of Trump’s supporters, putting them in “that other basket” and saying they need empathy.

She described them as “people who feel that the government has let them down, the economy has let them down, nobody cares about them, nobody worries about what happens to their lives and their futures, and they’re just desperate for change.”

Seeking to explain the statements, Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill said in a series of tweets after the remarks that Clinton has been talking about the “alternative right,” or “alt-right” movement, which often is associated with efforts on the far right to preserve “white identity,” oppose multiculturalism and defend “Western values.”

Drug users take advantage of public libraries to shoot up “Anonymity allows people to do things they wouldn’t do otherwise in public places, and if you can take away anonymity, you can help change behavior.”

By KANTELE FRANKO The Associated Press

The same qualities that make libraries ideal for studying and reading – unfettered public access, quiet corners and nooks, minimal interaction with other people – also make them appealing places to shoot up heroin, librarians are finding.

In Norfolk, Virginia, a 47-year-old man died after a patron found him in a library restroom. In Batesville, Indiana, and New Brunswick, New Jersey, police revived others in library restrooms using a popular overdose antidote.

The body of a homeless man who frequented the Oak Park Public Library in suburban Chicago might have been there for days, fully clothed and slumped on the toilet in a restroom on the quiet third floor, before a maintenance worker unlocked it on a Monday morning in April and discovered his inglorious demise. The empty syringe and lighter in his pockets and the cut soda can in the trash pointed to the cause, an accidental heroin overdose.

“On both a personal and a professional level, we were all very shocked and of course worried about how this could happen in our spaces,” said executive director David Seleb, who fired the security company responsible for clearing the library before closing.

The country’s heroin and painkiller problem has produced public overdoses in many places, including restaurants, gas stations, alleys and even hospitals, but the inherent attributes of public libraries leave them especially exposed.

They’re free and open for whoever walks in, and lingering is welcome, no transaction or interaction required.

“People need to know that this is happening everywhere and that public libraries haven’t done anything wrong to cause it to happen in public libraries,” said Josie Parker, director of the Ann Arbor District Library in Michigan.

Her library already had removed bathroom ceilings and toilet tanks where people could hide drugs and restroom entrances that could be locked – changes made more than a decade ago to curb cocaine trafficking, Parker said.

She raised drug-abuse concerns again in 2014 when officials were discussing a proposed park next to the library. Although unpleasant, starting a public discussion about drug and alcohol abuse observed at the library spurred a beneficial community response, Parker said.

These days, police routinely walk through the library, and social workers set up shop there, checking in with folks. All that, Parker said, strips away some anonymity.

“Anonymity allows people to do things they wouldn’t do otherwise in public places,” she said, “and if you can take away anonymity, you can help change behavior.”

In Ohio, peace officers from Tole-

do’s library system are being trained to help the sheriff’s Drug Abuse Response Team. Boston’s libraries have needle drop boxes and have offered overdose prevention training for employees and residents.

At the Humboldt County Library in Eureka, California, a librarian turned life-saver when she realized a man apparently sleeping in a chair was actually unresponsive, his lips turning blue.

Health officials had provided the overdose antidote naloxone – often known by the brand name Narcan – for the library, so librarian Kitty Yancheff injected it into the man’s leg, then into a still-limp arm before he gurgled and fluttered his eyes.

“I felt grateful that we had this Narcan on hand and that we were able to save his life, but it was kind of surreal,” said Yancheff, the library’s public services division manager.

It also was a bit ironic, considering Yancheff had given a presentation ti-

tled “Librarians as First Responders” during a conference years earlier. She was talking about how libraries increasingly provide non-traditional services, such as job-search help and de facto daytime sheltering for the homeless; she hadn’t figured on overdose rescue becoming part of the job.

Many librarians don’t go that far, turning instead to emergency responders or security staff.

The American Library Association encourages librarians to get training on interacting with special populations, such as drug users and the homeless, but stresses the importance of partnering with groups such as police and social workers, said Julie Todaro, the association’s president.

“Clearly when you have the epidemic that we have and the issues with the patrons that we have, we need to organize assistance,” she said.

“That doesn’t mean we ourselves provide it.”

What did North Korea accomplish?

North Korea said its “standardization” of a warhead will allow it to produce “at will and as many as it wants a variety of smaller, lighter and diversified nuclear warheads of higher strike power.” This puts “on a higher level (the North’s) technology of mounting nuclear warheads on ballistic rockets.”

It may indicate North Korea feels it can confidently build miniaturized warheads, mass-produce those weapons and then deploy them on ballistic missiles.

If so, Pyongyang has developed a unified design for nuclear weapons that could be used on a variety of its ballistic missiles, including Scuds, midrange Rodong and Musudan missiles, and submarine-launched missiles, said Kim Dae Young, a military expert at South Korea’s Korea Defense and Secu-

SEOUL, South Korea – North Korea’s latest nuclear test, its most powerful to date, is a game-changer ... according to North Korea.

As with anything reported by Pyongyang, an authoritarian state run by a third-generation dictator who allows zero dissent or outside investigation, there’s reason to be skeptical. But even if the North’s assertion that it has rounded a crucial corner in nuclear development is more rhetoric than real, the content of its claim holds some important clues about where the country’s atomic efforts may be heading.

In a meeting in Seoul on Saturday, South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se said that Friday’s test showed that North Korea’s nuclear capacity has reached a “considerable level” after quickly progressing in the past 10 years.

The newest test by North Korea raises many big questions.

rity Forum.

Combine that with everything scientists have learned from the four previous tests and North Korea may now have nuclear weapons capable of attacking its Asian neighbors, said nuclear expert Whang Joo-ho of Kyung Hee University in South Korea.

Daryl Kimball, executive director of the Washington-based Arms Control Association, provided a similar assessment, saying that North Korea is either at or very close to the point where they can arm short-range ballistic missiles with a nuclear warhead.

“The cumulative knowledge of the five nuclear test explosions and the dozens of ballistic missile tests, especially in the last 12 months, are giving their technical people greater confidence that they can deploy warheads on their ballistic missiles. If they have not reached that capability today, they certainly will relatively soon with further nuclear test explosions and ballistic missile tests,” he said.

Whatever the state of the program, one thing is clear: The fifth test was the most powerful to date.

Seoul said the magnitude-5.0 seismic event dwarfs the four past quakes associated with North Korean nuclear tests.

Artificial seismic waves measuring 3.9 were reported after North Korea’s first nuclear test in 2006, for instance, and a 4.8 was reported from its fourth test this January.

The explosive yield of Friday’s blast would have been 10 to 12 kilotons, or 70 percent to 80 percent of the force of the 15-kiloton atomic bomb the United States dropped on the Japanese city of Hiroshima in 1945, according to South Korea’s weather agency. The North’s fourth test, in January, was an estimated 6 kilotons.

This power strongly indicates a legitimate advance.

Remember those we lost The nation wept 15 years ago today.

Four passenger airliners were hijacked by members of al-Qaida with the intent of flying them into buildings. Three of them reached their target – the North and South towers of the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Virginia. A fourth plane crashed in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after passengers tried to subdue For the record the hijackers.

And we wept. How could we not? As we watched planes fly into buildings, as the magnitude of the loss enveloped us, as we learned the field in Pennsylvania was evidence of an unimaginable sacrifice those brave souls made, our tears were a sign of the love and compassion we had for our fellow Americans.

There was resilience, as we vowed to hold accountable those responsible for the carnage. And there was a sense of solidarity as the country came together as one. We were united in our grief, but also in our pride for our country, and vowed from the dust our country would rise stronger.

In 2001, we promised we would do right by those lost, and honor their memories by being better than the cowards who attacked us. We vowed to never forget. Fifteen years later, at times it seems remembering appears to be something we have forgotten.

Sept. 11 often seems more like a historical event we recall, not one we lived through.

Fewer people were alive that day – this year’s high school freshmen, for instance, weren’t alive when it happened. And unity? That seems nonexistent. We are a country divided among so many fault lines we can’t keep count. We seem to relish exposing our differences.

But it’s not too late to change direction.

Today, we will remember. And we may weep again as we pay tribute to deceased, to the passengers who fought the hijackers, and the firefighters, police officers and first responders who ran toward the carnage as everyone headed the other way. We will pray for their souls, and ask God for understanding and blessings upon the families of those they left behind. But we also can recall the love that permeated the country 15 years ago, and that camaraderie we felt for our fellow Americans. We can celebrate our similarities.

We can channel that spirit that rose 15 years ago, and like we did then, strive for unity.

Illinois’ costly prison problem Inmate population has declined. Why and for how long?

Concerned about overcrowded prisons, Gov. Bruce Rauner appointed a commission to study the issue and make recommendations on how to reduce the state’s prison population by 25 percent over the next decade.

The commission issued its report earlier this year. Its recommendations included giving judges more discretion in fashioning probation sentences rather than prison, expanded use of home electronic monitoring and offering more educational programs and drug abuse and mental health counseling.

There was nothing groundbreaking in the report, just the usual alternatives to incarceration.

The commission’s report received a warm public reception. After all, who really wants to see large numbers of people

– 48,921 in June 2014 – if there is a better way to address law enforcement and public safety issues?

But people are conflicted.

Last week, Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson called for a special legislative session to pass tough sentencing laws for gun-law violations.

Trying to cope with a weekly slaughter of citizens in his city, Johnson said it’s time to crack down on gun-law violators.

“Until repeat gun offenders recognize we’re serious about holding them accountable, we’re going to continue to see this gun violence,” he said.

The “lock ’em-up, don’t lock ’em up” debate has been ongoing for decades, attitudes shifting in response to events.

It’s a vexing problem that has defied permanent solution.

Inmate-advocate groups were thrilled with the recent news

the state’s inmate population has dropped by 4,261 since the 2014 fiscal year – it was 44,680 as of July 1.

But Jennifer Vollen-Katz, executive director of the John Howard Association, had no ready explanation for the drop.

State officials similarly were flummoxed by the decline.

Prison numbers and demographics mostly reflect a problem driven by poverty, lack of education, family disintegration, mental health, and drug and alcohol abuse.

It’s fine to say judges should have more discretion, that penalties should be reduced and that more sentences of probation, rather than incarceration, should be ordered.

They usually are for firsttime offenders. But what about those who are back in court time after time after time?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

This lulu, along with Trump’s false claim he always had been against the Iraq War, passed right by the NBC moderator, Matt Lauer.

The morning TV host got easily lost in the Republican nominee’s word salads. He failed to bring up the Donald’s shift of position that very day on military spending, when he went from supporting sequestration, which slowed spending, to pledging a huge increase of tens of billions in outlays in what is likely an effort to get votes in military-heavy, must-win states such as Virginia and Florida.

Lauer also didn’t confront Trump on some of the more glaring inconsistencies in his military agenda: that he would allow veterans to go outside the VA system for care and would cover the additional cost by eliminating that old favorite, “waste,

fraud and abuse.” Then there was his earlier assertion if women hadn’t joined the military, there would be no sexual assaults. That was an echo of his earlier advice to women that if they didn’t like being sexually harassed at work they should change jobs. This was before he hired former Fox Chairman Roger Ailes, who recently resigned in the wake of a multi-decade harassment scandal.

Not that Clinton bathed herself in glory last week, except when she batted back the ridiculous Trump claim her coughing spell in Ohio on Labor Day indicated she’s morbidly unhealthy. Her retort: “I’m allergic to Trump.”

Then there’s the email imbroglio Clinton just can’t seem to put to rest, ensuring it’ll be with us until Election Day, and perhaps beyond.

Lauer asked the former secretary of state about it three times. She replied wearily, but never quite grabbed back the reins to give her strategic vision for the world. Unlike Trump, she has experience dealing with the military and veterans, but she didn’t get personal. She categorically said no U.S. troops would “ever” be sent to Iraq and Syria to fight the Islamic State, even though she certainly knows politicians should never say “never.” When she rose from her seat, she looked like a courtroom lawyer defending a client, which she may well have been doing.

Trump smiled all the while. And he had reason to be cheerful: He encountered no challenges as he blithe-

ly threatened to remove top generals, who he said had been “reduced to rubble” by Obama; said the U.S. should plunder the oil of the countries where it intervenes; and described President Vladimir Putin as “a leader far more than our president has been.” The high praise was driven in part by the Russian autocrat’s strength and high approval ratings, but mainly by Putin’s good judgment in calling Trump “brilliant.”

As a preview of the debates, the forum was disturbing, at least when it comes to holding the candidates’ feet to the fire. One future moderator, Chris Wallace, has said he won’t be a “truth squad,” which is unfortunate.

Corrections have to be made when the cameras are rolling, otherwise the door is open to self-serving interpretations.

At a rally in Cleveland on Thursday, Trump used an “education speech” to do an instant replay of the previous night’s forum, painting Clinton as the liar and himself as the winner of every round.

Post-Labor Day, Trump had an opening to assure worried Republicans he is prepared – or at least adequately preparing – to be president.

Clinton, on a new plane with room for reporters, could have exhaustively and non-testily explained the email controversy without expecting full exoneration, which will never come.

So much for that.

IT’S YOUR WRITE GOP dirty tricks

To the Editor: No presidential candidate in recent history has been vetted more than Hillary Clinton. Her years of public service are well known at every level.

Secretary Clinton was not the only official who voted for the Iraq war funding based on faulty intelligence.

Seventy-seven senators and 296 House members voted for the authorization.

Thank Paul Wolfowitz and the neo-cons for the dis-information.

Regarding Benghazi, blame the terrorists. Terrorists do not send emails regarding planned attacks. Sadly, some good Americans paid the supreme price.

I’ve often wondered why elephants are the GOP symbol. Elephants love to wallow in the mud. The GOP playbook is based on lies and innuendos. Although

unproven (yet), I’m not surprised if the GOP is working with Russian hackers.

Didn’t Watergate teach them anything?

Thanks to legislators who exposed corrupt County Board

To the Editor: Thank you, Sen. Pam Althoff, Rep. Jack Franks and Gov. Bruce Rauner for teaming up to end the practice of County Board members receiving taxpayer-funded pensions. It is unfair that solely because of elected status County Board members are getting full-time perks for very part-time service. It also is distressing that our County Board failed to follow the law that they passed requiring proof of hours worked for pension

• Sunday, September 11, 2016

This should have been the week when both presidential candidates, the summer behind them, seized a back-to-school opportunity for a fresh start, a fresh chance to elevate the campaign to a level deserving of the office they aspire to. No such luck.

All hopes for a new narrative were dashed when Donald Trump violated the vow all presidential candidates must take not to reveal anything about the classified intelligence briefings they get. It’s never been dishonored, but at a joint “commander-in-chief forum” in New York on Sept. 7, Trump tried to leverage his access to score some cheap political points.

His first briefing, he said, left him “shocked,” because of the information it contained about an unspecified decision by President Barack Obama and his former secretary of state, Hillary Clinton, that had led to an unspecified “total disaster.” His briefers, he said, were “not happy about” Obama’s failure to “follow what our experts” advised.

Like many other Trump assertions, this one deserves to be taken with a bucketload of salt. Trump conceded the officials who delivered the Aug. 17 briefing didn’t say they were displeased with the president, but he is certain that was the message they intended him to hear. “I could tell – I’m pretty good with body language.”

Whatever actually transpired, we now know Trump can’t be trusted not to weaponize whatever is at hand, however confidential. Do-

BUSINESS

Flower shop, owner a mainstay in Campustown

By NOELLE McGEE The News-Gazette

CHAMPAIGN – Over the last seven-plus decades, Campustown has seen restaurants, shops and other businesses come and go.

Its two mainstays during that time: Campus Florist and Anne P. Johnston.

The flower shop in the heart of the University of Illinois business district, and Johnston, its sole owner, are marking a unique milestone this year — three quarters of a century in business.

“Anne Johnston started a business in an era where there were not a lot of women-owned companies,” said Laura Weis, president and CEO of the Champaign County Chamber of Commerce. “At the very least, she is a role model for young women in our community who have entrepreneurial spirits. She is an example that hard work and dedication can result in success.”

Johnston will celebrate the achievement with employees, customers and friends at a reception at the Champaign Country Club today.

Recently, she sat down with The News-Gazette to talk about her start in the business, some of her experiences over the years and why she never plans to retire.

While her business is 75, the South Side Chicago native has been involved in the floral business for more than eight decades thanks to her mother.

Faye Petersen started out as a school teacher. Sometime after her husband’s death, she and young Anne, her only child, walked into a flower shop and into what would become lifelong careers.

“We were going to the photographer, but he wasn’t open yet,” recalled Johnston, then 10 years old. “It was so cold, so mother stepped into a business to get warm. It was a florist.

“The place was horribly filthy,” Johnston continued, adding her mother told the man behind the counter as much and then demanded a broom. “The man gave her a broom and said, ‘We could use someone like you.’ Mother said, ‘When would you like me to start?’ He said, ‘Tomorrow.’ That’s how it all started.”

Petersen eventually owned and operated two flower shops. Her daughter worked for her. She started off watering plants, cutting stems and tidying up.

Soon, she was learning about flowers and how to create beautiful arrangements from her mother’s designer.

“My mother had the best designer in Chicago,” said Johnston, who learned from him and managed to impress a rival florist with her new skills.

“One day, the owner of the first shop my mother bought took us to his moth-

She showed us (an arrangement) her designer had made. I was a smart brat. I said, ‘I can do that,’ so she gave me some flowers. I made it, and she said, ‘That’s better than he does.’ I learned fast.”

In 1941, Johnston moved to Urbana to study floriculture at UI. She pledged Alpha Omicron Pi, but not for the same reason that other young co-eds did.

She planned to open a floral business on campus.

“When I came down to school, I didn’t know anyone,” she said. People back home “told me the best way to get customers was to date in as many fraternities as I could, which I did.”

Johnston launched Campus Florist in a small storefront on South Wright Street later that year. A few months later, she moved it to its present location on Green Street, which was larger and more visible.

“That was back when we used to park on Green Street,” she said, recalling there were only 10,000 students and 250 cars on campus at the time. “You couldn’t have a car unless you lived far away and had to go home, or you had a business.”

One day, Johnston got an unexpected visit from the dean of her department.

Her mother, who was visiting that weekend, froze when he walked in.

“He said, ‘It’s all right. I came to tell you your daughter is now where my students will be 10 years from now,’” Johnston recalled. “He told my mother I should go into some field where I could have fun, and I didn’t need what they had to offer me.”

Johnston took his advice and left the floriculture program to focus on her budding business.

While business grew, it wasn’t enough to pay for the higher rent at first. So that

summer, she closed the shop to work at a steel mill in Gary, Ind. “That was enough,” Johnston said with a laugh.

Johnston went out into the smaller, outlying communities around Champaign-Urbana to drum up business. It started growing by word of mouth.

In addition to walk-in and phone-in customers, Campus Florist became a go-to shop for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, weddings, funerals and special events on and off campus.

“We still cover all of those bases today,” said Phyllis Valentine, who started working for Johnston in 1979 and now serves as the main designer – a job Johnston relinquished about 1½ years ago.

“We’ve gained some loyal customers over the years.”

She recalled a man who sends his wife an azalea every year at Christmastime, one who always sends a red and white arrangement to funerals and one from Monticello, who always requested that his arrangements be made by Johnston’s mother, who worked with her daughter in the Champaign store during World War II. Later, Johnston took over.

“He was a good customer until he died,” Johnston said.

Johnston met her husband of 30 years when he stopped by the shop one day. He wasn’t looking for flowers.

Seely Johnston – the longtime owner of Johnston’s Sports in Champaign – was running for the Champaign city council, and he wanted her vote.

“He talked for half an hour,” recalled Johnston, who listened patiently. “When he finished talking, I said, ‘Well, that’s nice, but I can’t vote for you. I live in Urbana.’”

Sometime later, the Campustown merchants had a disagreement with the city. The city wanted to take down the

street lights on Green Street, much to the merchants’ objection.

“I called him and said, ‘What are we going to do?’” Johnston said of the recently-elected council member. “Seely was always for the underdog. He said, ‘Come to the meeting and don’t open your mouth until I ask you a question.’

This went on for two years, so I saw him every two weeks. He got sick one time, so I sent him some crackers and cheese.

Then he called me. That’s how it started.”

The two dated for five years and married on July 18, 1971. It was a happy union.

“I had my business, and he had his, so there was no arguing,” Johnston said with a smile.

The couple never had any children together, but Seely Johnston, a widower, had two children from his first marriage. Anne Johnston remains close to her step-daughter, Jan Glick, who lives in Kansas.

The couple enjoyed traveling together throughout the U.S. and Europe and vacationing at their condo in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

And they were both civic-minded.

Johnston was involved with the Campus Businessmen’s Association, serving as president for two years and putting out the newsletter for 25. In addition to serving on the council, her husband supported Champaign Central High School, his alma mater; Chanute Air Force Base in Rantoul; and other organizations.

He helped charter the Exchange Club of Champaign and was active until his death in 2001. Both die-hard Illini fans, they were also involved in the Illini Rebounders and Quarterback Club and attended games when they could.

Johnston still belongs to those organizations, but admits she hasn’t been able to attend meetings or games for a few years. While that may be true, club officials said she has continued to provide them with beautiful flower arrangements, corsages and plants for raffles for meetings and luncheons.

“She loves to give flowers for any occasion,” said Barb Barker, the administrator and past president of the men’s basketball team’s booster club. “If there was an event coming up that I forgot to let her know about, she would call up and say, ‘I’m going to do this.’

“It means so much to us, but it also means a lot to her to stay active and involved,” Barker said, adding the organization made Johnston a lifetime member a few years back.

“She’s been a valuable member of our organization for about 20 years,” said Tom Williams, president of the Exchange Club, which works to prevent child abuse.

ligence, and prove that you’ve got what it takes to be a leader. Helping those less fortunate will be rewarding.

Man’s nonstop work schedule leaves little time for wife Dear Abby: I am a stay-at-home mom who doesn’t work. My husband wants me at home, and I’m OK with that, but the problem is, he is now working two jobs and I never see him.

When he gets home, he’s so exhausted he can’t keep his eyes open.

He sleeps only four hours a night. I’m afraid he will crash and burn from overwork and lack of sleep. I also miss him and want to be with him. With no time together, I feel like I’m losing him.

How can I make this work? I don’t want to put pressure on him or make him feel bad, but I need him. I told him I’d get a part-time job, but he said he works for the both of us and that was the end of that conversation. I don’t want to lose my marriage over this. Do you have any advice that might help?

– Losing Him In Tennessee

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Dear Losing Him: I don’t blame you for being concerned. What your husband is doing isn’t healthy for him, for you or for your marriage. It’s time to discuss this with him more fully than it appears you have been able to so far.

He seems to be old-fashioned in his views about marriage. Generations ago, husbands were expected to be the sole provider, but economic reality has put an end to that. Today, both spouses work, primarily because they need to.

It may take mediation along with some input from his doctor to make your husband face reality, but he needs to understand you are worried

sick about him, you’re not happy with things as they are and you are starting your job search.

Dear Abby: I have been a widow for almost a year. I have met someone I really like, and we have started to date.

My roommate, “Eva,” encouraged me to meet this man (I’ll call him Warren) and get to know him if it would make me happy, so I did. Warren and I have a lot in common. We can talk to each other for hours.

Eva now tells me she doesn’t like having Warren at the house because it “reminds her of how alone and single” she is. She says she doesn’t want him here even if she isn’t home. This is causing problems because my work schedule makes it easier to have him over for coffee so we can talk before I leave for work, or on days off when she’s at work and I’m at home.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of McHenry County www.bbbsmchenry.org • 815-385-3855

When I offer to set Eva up on dates, she refuses. She told me she “hates” men, and all of them are nothing but liars and cheaters. Please help. I want to help my friend and also to have a good relationship with Warren. I feel happiest when we’re together, but I don’t want to lose my friend over this.

– Torn In Two Out West Dear Torn: Because of Eva’s aversion to men, continuing to try fixing her up isn’t going to work. You didn’t mention whose name is on the lease, but if it’s Eva’s – and she’s not comfortable with Warren coming to visit – consider moving to a place of your own or in with a roommate who’s not jealous.

Johnsburg’s Fiedorowicz keeps family, friends close

By JOE STEVENSON

A

s best as Gary Fiedorowicz can remember, his son C.J. was 3 when he provided a preview of his extraordinary physical skills.

Gary was sitting in his truck at his older son Kyle’s soccer game when he heard a pinging noise. When he got out to see what it was, there was C.J. tossing rocks off one of the truck’s hubcaps. And C.J. wasn’t that close to the vehicle, he was about 20 feet away, chucking overhand.

“I was like, ‘Wow, that’s impressive,’ ” Gary said. “I couldn’t get mad about it, it was only a hubcap. He was not throwing like a little kid, he was throwing like an adult would throw with accuracy. He was just so young.”

It was like a glimpse into the future, where Fiedorowicz made a habit of making difficult athletic feats look normal, whether it was one-handed catches on a full run in football or throwing 84-

Fiedorowicz, who will be 25 on Oct. 22, earned 11 varsity letters at Johnsburg High School in four sports and is one of the best athletes to come out of McHenry County. The Houston tight end starts his third NFL season Sunday as the Texans host the Bears at noon at NRG Stadium.

Texans home games often become Johnsburg reunions with a dozen family members and friends showing up at Fiedorowicz’s 2,500-square-foot home in Missouri City, Texas, about a 20-minute drive from the stadium.

Mike Dixon, one of Fiedorowicz’s best friends since third grade, makes a couple of trips each season to Houston and watches the rest of the Texans’ games on NFL Game Pass, later discussing the results with other former Skyhawks Cole Meyers, Dom Pascente and Tyler Chambers.

“It gives me goose bumps (to see him play in the NFL),” Dixon said. “He’s

JAKE BAHL Marian Central, DE Bahl led the Hurricanes’ defense that held Benet to 247 total yards in Marian’s 14-10 loss Friday. The loss puts Marian at 2-1 overall, 0-1 in the East Suburban Catholic Conference.

Bahl had a sack and the defense kept Marian in the game on a night when the offense did not have a great deal of success.

CASEY DYCUS Woodstock North, RB Dycus carried 24 times for 194 yards and two touchdowns in the Thunder’s 42-0 win against Harvard.

The victory put North at 3-0 for the season, 1-0 in the Kishwaukee River Conference.

JARREN JACKSON Marengo, RB Jackson had his second consecutive game topping 200 rushing yards.

He carried 35 times for 270 yards and six touchdowns as the Indians defeated Woodstock, 47-28. The win lifted Marengo to 3-0 overall, 1-0 in the KRC.

CHRIS KATRENICK Jacobs, QB Katrenick threw for five touchdowns, including two in the final 6:33 as the Golden Eagles came from behind to beat Crystal Lake South, 35-28.

The win lifted Jacobs to 2-1 overall, 2-1 in the FVC. Katrenick was 14 of 24 passing for 275 yards, and also carried five times for 32 yards.

ERIC MOONEY Huntley, QB Mooney did not rack up huge yards rushing or passing, but was quite efficient. He ran for 75 yards and threw for 106 and had a hand in six touchdowns (three rushing, three passing) as the Red Raiders beat Dundee-Crown, 57-14. Huntley is 2-1 overall, 2-1 in the Fox Valley Conference.

CLS, Huntley open tourney with wins

By JOHN WILKINSON

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com AURORA – Unsure when senior captain Andrew Grabowski would be able to arrive at the Stuart Sports Complex after taking the ACT on Saturday morning, Crystal Lake South coach Brian Allen didn’t plan for him in the starting lineup.

Grabowski ended up making it down to Aurora in plenty of time, but Allen didn’t want to alter the plan.

Grabowski entered after a few minutes, and although the Gators’ offense as a whole started unsteadily, the senior forward ended up being the difference in a 4-1 win over Ridgewood on the opening day of the PepsiCo Showdown.

Grabowski was involved in all four of the Gators’ goals, scoring twice and assisting on the other two. Joel Bennett and Nik Getzinger also scored for South (6-2-1).

“We started the game slow and we started to get really panicked,” Grabowski said. “We weren’t settling the ball, we kept just playing long, but after a while ... we just started to relax and felt comfortable passing the ball

around. That’s when it started clicking.”

The Gators missed a number of early chances before Bennett opened the scoring in the 24th minute. On a free kick from midfield, Grabowski posted up at the top of the box and flicked the ball in for Bennett to finish.

“It started with the work rate,” Allen said. “We wanted to play a little

more direct than usual, we wanted to see how they were going to handle the pressure, because we like to play that pressure mentality style. ... I like that they just stuck with it. We were peppering them early, but nothing was on frame. Instead of getting discouraged and changing it, they stayed with the mentality, and once we got some stuff on frame we were rewarded for it and then we just stuck with the game plan, so that was good to see.”

In the 38th minute, Grabowski muscled his way onto a through ball

by Jack Wruck and finished to make it 2-0 at the half. He scored five minutes on the other side of halftime, pouncing on a bad pass in Ridgewood’s end and finishing from a tight angle.

Ridgewood got one back a minute later, when the Gators’ defense was caught flatfooted on a free kick, but Getzinger made it 4-1 in the 65th minute, tapping in a centering pass from Grabowski on the left endline.

Earlier in the day Huntley, unlike South, got out to a flying start. The Red Raiders (5-2) scored twice in the first 10 minutes and went on to beat Lincoln Way East, 2-1.

It took just six minutes for the

Red Raiders to take a lead, with Zack Whitaker scoring at the near post, assisted by Aaron Ruffner out on the wing.

“He’s got the ball, I’m running as fast as I can near post, trying to get right to the ball because I know he’s playing it on the ground,” Whitaker said. “I just went straight to the near post, and luckily it was right where I was, and I finished easy inside of the foot.”

Three minutes later, the roles were reversed as Ruffner scored and Whitaker got the assist.

“That first goal was nice – that’s more of the soccer we want to play,” Huntley coach Kris Grabner said.

“That was a great goal. Second one I’m happy to see that Ruffner was following that up. We talk about it all the time, but you don’t always see people do it. He did it, and that ends up being the game winner.

“I thought they came out flying after that second goal, they got fired up and we didn’t match their intensity.

That was almost a game changer.”

The Red Raiders gave one back in the 23rd minute but absorbed pressure well throughout the rest of the contest.

Prairie Ridge football team to host Military Appreciation Night on Friday against Crystal Lake South Prairie Ridge again will host its Military Appreciation Night when the Wolves host Crystal Lake South in a 7 p.m. football game Friday.

Prairie Ridge coach Chris Schremp started the event last year and wants to keep it going.

Those who served in the Army, Air Force, Marines, Navy or National Guard are invited to attend the game and be recognized before kickoff.

Current or former military personnel who

plan on attending may email Prairie Ridge athletic assistant Janie Piccolo at jpiccolo@d155. org so their names can be announced.

“Last year it was touching to see how emotional some of the older veterans and their wives got,” Schremp said. “I thought, ‘This is something we need to keep doing.’ ” Schremp has invited former players who served to come in and speak to the players during the week. Former Wolves player Will

Mack, an Army Green Beret, will speak, and Chris Gates, who served in the Navy, also will talk to the team.

The Wolves will wear special jerseys for the game that will have patches from one of the five branches.

“It’s more than just wearing a black-andcamo jersey,” Schremp said. “We had quite a response from the Army and Marine recruiters last year. The former players come in and

share their ideas about the military, about being selfless and doing things for other people because you’re part of a team. It made a big impression with the kids last year, so we’re doing it again.”

Prairie Ridge also is selling military-theme T-shirts that will benefit a veterans organization in McHenry.

jseverson@shawmedia.com TAMPA, Fla. – Things went from bad to worse for the Northern Illinois football team Saturday night.

The Huskies struggled on defense against a talented South Florida offense and lost, 48-17, at Raymond James Field. The loss stung even more after starting quarterback Drew Hare went down with what appeared to be a left ankle injury in the third quarter.

Facing a first down on the NIU 3-yard line, Hare kept the ball on a running play and was tackled for a 2-yard loss – as his ankle bent violently and he was taken off the field on a cart. Hare suffered a season-ending Achilles injury midway through the 2015 season.

Against the Bulls (2-0) on Saturday, Hare was 13 for 20 for 96 yards before getting hurt and being replaced by sophomore Ryan Graham, who finished 9 for 15 with 65 yards after the game was already lopsided. Junior cornerback Shawun Lurry also appeared to be banged up with an upper-body injury. When he came back in the second half, he wouldn’t move his right arm – which was tucked into his chest during action.

Not too much went right for the Huskies on Saturday, not even including Hare and Lurry’s injuries. The Bulls outgained the Huskies 658-318 and scored early and often, taking a 27-7 lead into halftime.

The Huskies allowed 370 yards of total offense in the first half. South Florida, averaging 9.1 yards a play in the first half, had 13 plays of 10 or more yards against the Huskies defense – NIU had only three.

NIU running back Joel Bouagnon, who only had 16 rushing yards in the triple-overtime loss at Wyoming to start the year, finished with 72 yards on 14 carries. Kenny Golladay, the Huskies star wide receiver who had 10 catches for 144 yards in Week 1, was held to four receptions and 43 yards.

We’re not there yet, but we’ll get there.”

There may be no moral victories. But there is forward progress.

And Illinois accomplished that, delivering an entertaining start and, all things considered, an encouraging per-

measured up.

Hiring Smith to restore a program that was wallowing in confusion on the field and scandal off of it was a perception-changing stroke by new athletic director Josh Whitman.

On the third play from scrimmage, Ke’Shawn Vaughn burst free for a 65yard touchdown run that. The crowd erupted at Illinois’ 7-0 lead.

After Carolina, led by dual-threat junior quarterback Mitch Trubisky, tied the game 7-7, Illinois answered with a 15-yard scoring pass from senior Wes Lunt to junior running back Kendrick Foster. The Illini led 14-7 late in an action-packed first quarter, showing another sign of the promise that Smith’s hiring brought.

From there, reality set in.

Lunt fumbled late in the first quarter to set up a two-play, 19-yard touchdown drive that gave North Carolina a 17-14 lead.

Trubisky led another scoring drive, capped by a 24-yard pass to running back T.J. Logan that expanded the Tar Heels’ lead to 24-14.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: BIG TEN ROUNDUP

Minnesota routs Indiana St. despite Tonyan’s 3 TD grabs The ASSOCIATED PRESS MINNEAPOLIS – Mitch Leidner completed 20 of 30 passes for 295 yards and four touchdowns Saturday as Minnesota rolled to 592 total yards in a 58-28 win over Indiana State.

After struggling early in a win against Oregon State, the Gophers (2-0) were looking for a quick start, and they got it. Leidner converted three times on third down on Minnesota’s opening drive. Then he dropped a 20-yard rainbow into wide receiver Drew Wolitarsky’s hands in the corner of the end zone for Minnesota’s first score.

Minnesota’s senior quarterback kept the offense rolling all day against its FCS opponent. The Gophers scored five touchdowns and a field goal in seven first-half possessions and put points on the board in nine of the 10 drives Leidner led.

Indiana State quarterback Isaac Harker threw three touchdown passes, all to wide receiver Robert Tonyan of McHenry, and caught a 10-yard touchdown off a reverse option pass by wide receiver Bob Pugh. Tonyan finished with eight catches for 90 yards.

The Sycamores (1-1) are 0-16 all-time against teams in the current Big Ten. No. 10 Wisconsin 54, Akron 10: At Mad-

ison, Wisconsin, Corey Clement is proving he can carry a full workload for No. 10 Wisconsin.

Clement ran for two scores before rolling his left ankle on his last carry, and Wisconsin stuffed Akron’s spread offense in a 54-10 win Saturday.

The Badgers (2-0) didn’t slack off in their 2016 debut at Camp Randall Stadium, a week after outmuscling SEC power LSU, 16-14, in the season opener.

Wisconsin had 294 yards rushing and 292 yards through the air. It was its first game with more than 290 in each category since at least 1996.

No. 4 Ohio St. 48, Tulsa 3: At Columbus, Ohio, Ohio State overcame a sluggish offensive start, a lightning delay and a driving rainstorm in the second half to beat Tulsa.

After piling up a school-record 776 yards of offense last week against Bowling Green, Ohio State (2-0) didn’t score an offensive touchdown against Tulsa (1-1) until quarterback J.T. Barrett ran in from 16 yards with 9:42 left in the third quarter. Tailback Mike Weber, Barrett and back Curtis Samuel added scoring runs later in the second half to put the game out of reach.

No. 5 Michigan 51, UCF 14: At Ann Arbor, Michigan Wilton Speight threw two of his four touchdown passes to

Jake Butt, and Khalid Hill ran for two scores in Michigan’s victory over Central Florida.

The Wolverines (2-0) have won their first two games by a combined total of 97 points. The Knights (1-1) got off to a relatively good start before getting blown out. They ran for a first down on the first snap and forced Michigan to punt after its first three plays.

No. 16 Iowa 42, Iowa State 3: At Iowa City, Iowa, C.J. Beathard threw for 235 yards and three touchdowns and 16thranked Iowa (2-0) throttled Iowa State (0-2), its biggest win over the rival Cyclones in 18 seasons under coach Kirk Ferentz.

Indiana 30, Ball St. 20: At Bloomington, Indiana, Richard Lagow threw three touchdown passes in his home debut, and Indiana’s defense forced three more turnovers as the Hoosiers held off Ball State’s frantic fourth-quarter flurry for a 30-20 victory.

Lagow, a junior college transfer, was 17 of 28 for 266 yards with no interceptions as Indiana (2-0) snapped a threegame losing streak in the series. The Hoosiers have won four of their last five, this one by flipping the script.

Instead of following Devine Redding’s lead on the ground, Indiana beat the Cardinals (1-1) through the air.

Pitt 42, Penn St. 39: At Pittsburgh, the renewal of the Pittsburgh-Penn State rivalry proved worth the wait. And then some.

James Conner ran for 117 yards and a touchdown and caught another and cornerback Ryan Lewis intercepted Penn State quarterback Trace McSorley in the end zone with just over a minute to play as the Panthers (2-0) held on for a victory before 69,983 fans.

Penn State fell to 1-1.

Cincinnati 38, Purdue 20: At West Lafayette, Indiana, quarterback Hayden Moore passed for three touchdowns and ran for two more, leading Cincinnati (20) over Purdue (1-1) in Ross-Ade Stadium. Purdue quarterback David Blough was intercepted five times.

Nebraska 52, Wyoming 17: At Lincoln, Nebraska, Tommy Armstrong Jr. passed for 377 yards and three touchdowns, Kieron Williams ran back one of Josh Allen’s five interceptions for a score, and Nebraska (2-0) defeated Wyoming (1-1).

Rutgers 52, Howard 14: At Piscataway, New Jersey, Janarion Grant scored three touchdowns and Rutgers (1-1) overcame an early scare against Howard in posting a victory over Howard (0-2), giving new coach Chris Ash his first win.

CHAMPAIGN – They’re back.

From the festive pre-game tailgate in Grange Grove to the fannies in the seats, Illini Nation came out of hiding Saturday night.

Orange-and-Blue fans filled Memorial Stadium with a crowd of 60,670, Illinois’ first sellout since a Nov. 12, 2011, meeting with Michigan in Ron Zook’s final season. This was Illinois’ first nonconference sellout at home since 70,060 saw a 21-7 loss to Arizona on Sept. 12, 1987.

“I thought the fans were outstanding,” said new coach Lovie Smith, who’s at the heart of Illinois’ turnaround plans. “They did their job. This is good for [our players] to see, what it eventually will be when we’re playing top-notch ball.”

Their fans roared with approval as the Illini jumped out to a 14-7 lead before falling to North Carolina, 48-23, on a picture-perfect night for college football.

“The guys fought hard and they

formance against a talented Tar Heel team that some thought would handle the Illini roughly.

In the end, Illinois didn’t have enough to win. But there was plenty of fight in the Fighting Illini.

On the first play of the fourth quarter, Illinois closed to a one-possession game, 31-23, on a 7-yard touchdown pass from Wes Lunt to Malik Turner. Carolina then scored the final 17 points of the game.

At halftime, Illinois (1-1) had been outgained 205 yards to 184 yards, and had controlled the ball for 17 of the opening 30 minutes. The turnover battle was a 1-1 draw.

North Carolina (1-1), which put a scare into No. 9 Georgia before falling 33-24 last week, threatened to pull away in the second half. But Illinois was able to keep hanging around.

There is a lot of work to be done before Illinois football is truly competitive. But a program that has seemingly been rudderless for years appears headed in the right direction.

Kizer leads Irish over Nevada after slow start

By TOM COYNE

The Associated Press SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Notre Dame’s defense got going after stuffing Nevada on a fourth-and-1 from the 17 on Nevada’s first possession. The offense didn’t get going until the second quarter.

Nevada (1-1) was no match for the 18th-ranked Fighting Irish once they got both sides going, overpowering the Wolf Pack, 39-10, Saturday.

DeShone Kizer threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score, Josh Adams rushed for 106 yards on 10 carries and Notre Dame’s defense rebounded from a disappointing performance a week ago at Texas.

Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly was pleased with the defensive effort.

“We needed some confidence, so that fourth down was definitely a confidence-builder for our defense. I think that gave us some momentum going into the next couple of drives,” he said.

Linebacker James Onwualu said it was a stop the Irish (1-1) desperately needed.

“We never had a drive where the defense had any momentum in the Texas game,” he said.

Defensive lineman Jarron Jones also set up a touchdown with an interception at the 8-yard line.

Kizer was 15 of 18 for 156 yards with one interception, and Equanimeous St. Brown led Irish receivers with six catches for 85 yards with Torii Hunter Jr. out with a concussion sustained against Texas.

Kelly said Kizer showed more patience looking for receivers.

“The other thing is he’s taking what’s available to him instead of trying to do too much,” Kelly said.

I’m very proud of the man he’s become on and off the field.”

Dixon had a flashback when former Texans running back Arian Foster tossed Fiedorowicz his first NFL touchdown pass two years ago. “[C.J.] jumped out of nowhere,” Dixon said. “I loved throwing alley-oops (in basketball) to him too. You throw it up there and he’s going to catch it. I love

Nevada coach Brian Polian, a former Notre Dame assistant under Charlie Weis, said he had no doubt about going for it on fourth down.

“Because field goals were not going to keep us in this game,” he said.

The Wolf Pack avoided the shutout when Wyatt Demps caught a 44yard pass from Tyler Stewart in the third quarter to set up a 27-yard field goal by Brent Zuzo. Jaxson Kincaide added a 6-yard TD run against Notre Dame’s reserves late in the fourth quarter. Stewart was 10 of 23 passing for 113 yards; and James Butler, who rushed for 1,342 yards last season, was held to 50 yards on 17 carries.

“I had a little bit of an off day and you can’t afford to have those,” Stewart said.

BIG QUARTER

The Irish took control with a 25-point second quarter – the most points in the quarter for Notre Dame since scoring 28 points against Pittsburgh in Weis’ debut as coach in 2005.

KNUCKLEHEAD MISTAKES

Both teams struggled with mental errors, highlighted by a safety by Nevada’s Ahki Muhammad being called for a safety when he caught a kickoff and carried it out of the end zone, then stepped back into the end zone and kneeled.

“There were some points in the game where, frankly, we made some knuckleheaded mistakes,” Polian said.

the kid. Then he spiked the ball, and it went out of the stadium.”

The Texans’ equipment staff retrieved the ball and Fiedorowicz has it at his home, not far from a picture with his high school buddies. It is still his only NFL touchdown, although Fiedorowicz is doing what he can to add to his collection.

“My offensive coordinator (George Godsey) is talking about trying to get me 40 balls this year,” said Fiedorowicz, who has started in 22 NFL games and caught 21 passes. “That’s going to take a lot of work, I have to show I’ve added to my receiving game and

Stunning loss for ’Cats

EVANSTON – Although it appeared his missed extra point might prove to be the difference, Sean Slattery said his thoughts never turned negative.

“Coach told me at halftime, ‘You’re gonna hit a big one,’ ” Slattery said.

“That gave me some confidence. You just have to believe in yourself and get it done.”

Slattery connected on a 33-yard field goal as time expired to give Illinois State a 9-7 upset of Northwestern on Saturday.

Jake Kolbe completed 30 of his 41 passes for 287 yards and two interceptions, Anthony Warrum had nine receptions for 116 yards and George Moreira had 57 yards on 12 carries and a touchdown for Illinois State (2-0).

“We feel like we belong playing teams like this,” Kolbe said. “We stressed all week we’re good enough to play with teams like that.”

“We knew that today was going to be a battle,” Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald said. “Did I think it was going to be this type of battle from a standpoint of scoring? Quite frankly, no.

“When he has a lady friend come over, I have to go to my room,” she said. “It’s usually later at night and I have a TV in there. That’s the only thing I wasn’t planning on when I moved in with him. I don’t think anything about it. It’s the funniest thing.”

••• The list of what Fiedorowicz has learned in two NFL seasons is extensive, starting with his offseason training. At Your World Fitness in July he said he felt the best he has heading into a training camp.

“My first year, my knee was bothering me. Last year, it was my shoulder,” he said. “I feel great, but I don’t want to overdo things. I know how I feel midway through the season. It’s a long season. I don’t want to get halfway through and feel dead tired. I know how to rest my body in my third year.”

Kyle Fiedorowicz, who works as a trainer with Leathers, has helped his little brother with training and diet ideas.

“It wasn’t where we actually sat down and talked about it, it’s just eating clean in general,” Kyle said. “If C.J. was around, I’d point something out. He would watch what I was eating and see how I progressed after eating better, and he followed suit.”

The Texans especially like Fiedorowicz’s blocking ability. A recent article on the website Bleacher Report listing players with underappreciated skills said Fiedorowicz graded the highest of any NFL tight end for pass blocking.

Houston coach Bill O’Brien and his staff regard him almost like having another tackle on the field. He also was one of the best run-blocking tight ends.

Fiedorowicz would like to be used more as a receiver than blocker on passing plays. He feels he is more adept at route-running and reading defenses, things that may help him get more targets from new Texans quarterback Brock Osweiler.

“In college, I was just kind of running around, not really knowing what to look at pre-snap,” he said. “I’m

almost a year. C.J. rented the house for a year, and the family liked it so much that he and Paige bought it.

“He said one of his friends teased him in high school, ‘You’re a football player, you’re going to be the last one to get a house,’ ” LeeAnn said. “And he’s the first one to get a house, and paid cash for it.”

C.J. struggled with being alone his rookie season when he lived in an apartment.

“You’re by yourself, it’s your first year and you get to thinking, ‘This is tough,’ ” C.J. said. “You kind of want somebody to talk to.”

That someone turned out to be his mother. C.J. invited LeeAnn to live with him last year. She cooks, cleans house, takes care of everything while he’s away on 10-hour days for working out, practicing and watching game video until he falls asleep, usually before 10 p.m.

“I couldn’t be more thankful for what she does,” C.J. said. “When you come home from a long day, you want to be with somebody you know, you’re comfortable with. Having her down there is just awesome.”

In June, C.J. came north to Spring Grove to work out with trainer Chris Leathers at Your World Fitness. Woodstock graduate Mike Liedtke, who was in training camp with the New York Jets, was Fiedorowicz’s regular workout partner.

Meanwhile, when LeeAnn wasn’t working as a waitress and bartender at Quail Valley Golf Course in Missouri City, she painted the house inside, power washed the outside, cared for C.J.’s and Paige’s 2-year-old bull mastiff Winston, and cleaned the pool and pontoon boat.

“He was like, ‘Mom, why are you up there (in Johnsburg)?’ Why don’t you just come down here?’ ” LeeAnn said.

“I’m like, ‘Are you sure?’ I felt honored that my 23-year-old son was asking me to come down here and live with him.

Before, he didn’t enjoy going home, but this is totally different.”

up?’ He’d say, ‘A ballplayer.’ He never swayed from it, and he’s living the dream he’s had since he was 5 years old.”

That dream is common for sports-oriented children, but the Fiedorowicz family sensed it was not just a dream for C.J. Gary is a burly 6-6 man who works as an electrician in Richmond and resembles an NFL lineman.

LeeAnn is 5-11 and played basketball.

Kyle (28) is taller, at 6-8, but was not blessed with C.J.’s speed. Paige (26) is 6-0 and graduated in 2008 as Johnsburg’s girls basketball career scoring leader.

“I would say it was very beneficial (for him) being the youngest,” Paige said. “He says it all the time. Growing up, it was never like, ‘We’re going to take it easy because you’re younger.’

It was like, ‘There’s no mercy here.’

Whenever we stepped outside, there was competition in whatever it was.”

Kyle concurred.

“If I was 11, he was 7, and 7 vs. 11 is quite a bit different skill levels,” Kyle said. “He always had to play up in competition. I guess that’s something he learned, something he was used to.

He was always right there, it wasn’t like he wasn’t competitive. He was with us.”

C.J. played varsity as a freshman in football, basketball and baseball.

“Once he was in high school, I figured he could get to the professional level,” said Paige, who works in sales in Arizona and co-owns the Texas house with C.J. “He had the work ethic if he wanted to make it happen.

When I was in high school and he was a freshman, playing up, and seeing how well he could do at that level, it was something on the radar.”

Richmond-Burton football coach Pat Elder knew Fiedorowicz was tough to deal with on the field, but got a perspective on just how talented he was from his father, Illinois High School Football Coaches Association Hall of Famer John Elder.

“When [C.J.] was a sophomore, we beat Johnsburg, 20-10, that night, and Dad’s at our house,” Elder said. “He said, ‘That’s one of the five best high school athletes I’ve ever seen. He’s going to be able to go anywhere in the country he wants to play football.’

Those old guys see stuff other people don’t. When he said that, it hit home immediately with me. I was like, ‘OK, he’s for real.’ ” ••• After his four-year career at Iowa, Fiedorowicz was selected in the third round, 65th overall, by the Texans in the 2014 NFL Draft. He is halfway through a four-year rookie contract that earned him $3,195,166.

Fiedorowicz will make $685,000 this season and co-owns his house with Paige. LeeAnn has lived with him for

looking at the safety and linebacker, they disguise so many coverages. If you don’t have an idea what coverage is coming, you can get totally messed up, floating around an area that messes up the quarterback.”

Fiedorowicz wants to apply that knowledge to get himself open more often.

“If you can’t win man-to-man coverage on third down, you’re not going to be out there,” he said. “It’s a huge down for ‘man’ coverage. If you can’t get open, you’re not going to get your fair share of balls. Your third year is where you make huge strides. It can be your make-or-break year, going into your second contract. I feel like it will decide how long my career is going to be.”

••• As Johnsburg Principal Kevin Shelton supervised in the school during football games, he noticed something different from opposing teams.

“During the sophomore game, they’d hang around hoping to get a glimpse of him, see him up close,” Shelton said. I thought, ‘Wow!’ That’s pretty serious respect coming from opponents. I’d never seen that before.”

Shelton knew when recruiting guru Tom Lemming was paying more attention to Fiedorowicz, sometime around his junior year, things were getting serious. It was then Shelton started thinking Johnsburg could have an NFL player.

Like Dixon, however, Shelton says he sees the same Fiedorowicz who used to walk the halls of the high school.

“I always appreciated that he’s so down to earth,” Shelton said. “He’s such a kind person and has time for everyone, especially the kids. His senior year is something I’ll remember forever. It didn’t matter what game it was, there was always somebody wanting to get close to him, to see him, and he always had time.”

Shelton recalled that after Fiedorowicz’s final high school game, a playoff loss to Richmond-Burton, he hung around talking to people, taking pictures and signing autographs.

“He’s a special person to be in that situation because of the generosity with his time,” Shelton said. “You look at what he does when he comes back.

He visits our junior high, he helps out with kids’ camps. I told him a long time ago, ‘You have a future in this sport, but if you ever wanted to be a teacher or a coach, you’d be excellent at it because of your demeanor.’ ” Currently, Fiedorowicz wants to push the Texans toward the AFC playoffs, with hopes of doing that with his blocking and receiving skills.

“It’s definitely surreal,” Paige said.

“It’s fun to watch. What I enjoy most is being able to create memories with family and friends and go to the game and be at the house together. I’m really proud of him. He’s grown up a ton. He kind of had to – it’s a business. He’s handled it very well for that kind of pressure at his age.”

Changes to O-lines give Bears chance The Houston Texans are a better football team than the Bears, and if all things were equal, this seemingly would be an easy season opener to pick.

But all things are rarely equal in the NFL, and some last-minute gyrations on the offensive lines of both clubs have magnified a few cracks the Bears might just be able to step into and balance the scales a bit.

Coming off a 9-7, AFC South championship season, the Texans return the NFL’s third-ranked defense, and they spent big in free agency and the draft to theoretically improve themselves at quarterback, receiver and on the offensive line, and clearly improved themselves at running back.

The Bears get a clear edge at quarterback, where, love him or hate him, Jay Cutler is vastly more experienced, accomplished, athletic and has a much bigger arm than Texans newbie Brock Osweiler.

Osweiler has seven NFL starts (his first came last year at Soldier Field with the Broncos) in which he has put together some good halves of football, but he has yet to put together an entire game, and yet to take a snap that counts in the Texans’ offense.

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush Houston gets the edge at running back, where Lamar Miller very well could prove to be the best 2016 free-agent signing at any position – Miller has a 4.6-yard career average a carry and averaged 5.1 yards in 2014, his only season with more than 200 carries – while Jeremy Langford, Ka’Deem Carey and Jordan Howard have three NFL starts between them.

The wideout spot is a draw.

Houston’s DeAndre Hopkins and the Bears’ Alshon Jeffery both are Pro Bowlers with All-Pro potential, and both clubs have talented options alongside who are all unproven with the exception of Eddie Royal.

Houston’s Jaelen Strong underachieved as a rookie last year but will start across from Hopkins, while it now looks like it could be at least one more week before Kevin White makes his debut.

This Sunday, the Bears might actually rate a slight edge on the offensive line, as the arrival of Josh

KEY MATCHUP TO WATCH Texans front seven vs. Bears offensive line: J.J. Watt is the best defensive player in the NFL. No one can wreck a game plan like Watt, who is coming off back surgery but is going to be relentless trying to get into the Bears’ backfield. Whitney Mercilus has emerged as an impactful pass rusher. The Texans are hoping to get more out of Jadeveon Clowney this season. John Simon is an underrated linebacker, along with veteran Brian Cushing and second-year inside linebacker Benardrick McKinney. Oh, and there’s Vince Wilfork, one of the best nose tackles of all time. That group is one of the best in the league, and it’s going against a Bears offensive line that is expected to start a rookie at center in Cody Whitehair.

Kyle Long may be limited by his shoulder, but even a not-at-100-percent Long is better than most guards in the league, paired now with three-time Pro Bowler Josh Sitton. Still, this group of five – which has questions at tackle – has only been together since Monday. They need to be mindful of where Watt lines up and be ready for Romeo Crennel to send pressure from multiple directions. If the Bears can’t handle Houston’s front, it’s not going to give

best in football.

Wilfork on Whitehair seems almost unfair, and if the Texans match Watt up with Bobby Massie and send Clowney behind them with Mercilus coming after Charles Leno, Houston could enjoy a huge advantage in the pass rush and Cutler could take a beating.

Houston also has a huge edge in the secondary, where Kareem Jackson and Johnathan Joseph are among the better pairs of cover corners in the league, and safeties Quintin Demps and Andre Hal aren’t special but are several notches ahead of Adrian Amos and Harold Jones-Quartey.

If the Bears can run the ball effectively, eat a ton of clock and make a play or two at the end, they’ll have a shot.

But if they can’t slow Miller on the ground and are forced to try to win it through the air on offense, it could make for a long and painful Sunday.

Sitton and shifting of rookie Cody Whitehair to center offers significant promise.

Houston, on the other hand, will be without All-Pro left tackle Duane Brown, who will be replaced by Chris Clark – a backup for John Fox and Bears offensive line coach Dave Magazu in Denver – and Greg Mancz will start at center after Nick Martin – the younger brother of the Cowboys All-Pro guard Zach – who was drafted six spots ahead of Whitehair to be the Texans’ starter is out for the year.

Unfortunately for the Bears, the gap widens considerably when you start to compare defenses.

The Bears are significantly improved in the front seven, and Eddie Goldman, in particular, could give Mancz fits while Akiem Hicks, Danny Trevathan and Jerrell Freeman significantly improve the run defense.

But the Bears’ defense is trying to make a move from 21st in the league to maybe top 10.

The Texans’ front seven featuring NFL Defensive MVP J.J. Watt, Vince Wilfork, Whitney Mercilus, Brian Cushing, Benardrick McKinney and Jadeveon Clowney just might be the

the offense much of a chance.

X-FACTOR Safety Harold Jones-Quartey: The Bears have put such an emphasis this offseason on creating more turnovers after notching only 17 takeaways in 2015. Jones-Quartey’s aggressive play helped earn him the starting job since the start of the offseason program, and the Bears need that in the back end. Brock Osweiler may have two weapons to throw to in DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller, but receivers like that mean a QB may take more chances, trusting his wideouts and his arm.

Jones-Quartey has the fly-to-the-ball ability to take advantage of any Osweiler mistake. The Bears can’t get beat deep and need to keep Lamar Miller in check, too, and Jones-Quartey will be crucial to that part of the game plan.

Let’s see if the former Division II player can make an impact in his first season opener as a starter in the NFL. STAT TO KEEP IN MIND Lamar Miller had seven carries for more than 20 yards last season, including an 85-yard touchdown run. The Bears allowed only five runs of 20+ yards in 2015.

hold off Sox in 9th

By MIKE CRANSTON The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Whit Merrifield hit a go-ahead two-run double in a threerun seventh inning, and the Kansas City Royals held on for a 6-5 victory over the White Sox on Saturday night.

Royals closer Wade Davis gave up a single to Tyler Saladino and a double to Adam Eaton to lead off the ninth before Melky Cabrera’s infield single cut the deficit to one.

With the tying run on third and one out, Davis struck out Jose Abreu and Justin Morneau for his 23rd save as the Royals remained four games behind Baltimore for the second AL wild card.

Eric Hosmer hit a two-run homer in the first and Alex Gordon hit a solo shot in the fourth off Sox starter James Shields. The struggling righty exited after six innings leading 4-3 before the Sox’s bullpen faltered.

HOUSTON – John Lackey’s solid start wasn’t enough for a win.

Rookie Alex Bregman homered, Collin McHugh combined with his bullpen on a two-hitter, and the Houston Astros beat the Cubs, 2-1, Saturday.

Lackey (9-8) gave up two runs, four hits and three walks in six innings for the NL Central leaders, who are a big league-best 90-51. He had been 2-0 in his past four starts.

“I definitely haven’t had much luck with the wins and losses this year,” Lackey said.

After the game, the 37-year-old righthander refused to respond to questions about his shoulder, which prevented him from pitching for the Cubs between Aug. 14 and Sept. 4.

“Are you serious?” Lackey said.

“I’ve been pitching for 15 years. There is no such thing as not feeling anything.

I haven’t not felt anything probably since the 90s.”

Cubs batters struggled, striking out 12 times.

“We need to move the baseball and put runners in scoring position, or just move the baseball in general,” Cubs

14 NASCAR SPRINT CUP: FEDERATED AUTO PARTS 400

Hamlin wins; fuming Newman rips Stewart

By JENNA FRYER

The Associated Press RICHMOND, Va. – It was yet another Denny Hamlin runaway for Joe Gibbs Racing on Saturday night in what turned out to be an anticlimactic end to NASCAR’s regular season.

The fireworks came off the track at Richmond International Raceway, where Ryan Newman angrily chided former boss Tony Stewart after an accident between the two officially ended Newman’s chances to make the playoffs.

The verbal beatdown from Newman came with 37 laps left, before Hamlin finished off his third career Sprint Cup win at his home track while giving JGR its third consecutive victory at the track and ninth in the last 15 races.

Newman called Stewart “bipolar,” said the retiring race car driver had anger issues, and all but outright refer-

enced the 2014 incident in which Stewart fatally struck a sprint car driver.

“I guess he thought he was in a sprint car again and didn’t know how to control his anger,” Newman said after the two made contact three times before finally wrecking. Dylan Lupton couldn’t avoid the accident and his car ended up wedged between the wall and on top of Newman’s car when the crashing finally ceased.

The wreckage caused a stoppage of just more than 20 minutes and sent Newman’s temperature soaring. Newman’s team was penalized 15 points this week by NASCAR for failing postrace inspection at Darlington, and the punishment made his task of trying to race his way into the Chase extremely difficult.

But few expected him to be so harsh toward Stewart, who employed Newman for five years until Newman was let go from Stewart-Haas Racing at the end of the 2013 season.

GOLF ROUNDUP

Johnson seizes control of BMW Championship The ASSOCIATED PRESS CARMEL, Ind. – Dustin Johnson plays a different game than anyone else, and he wants to keep it that way.

Right down to his putter.

The U.S. Open champion made a late change just before starting the BMW Championship, and so far he has no complaints. Johnson finished with four birdies over the last five holes Saturday on soggy Crooked Stick for a 4-under-par 68, stretching his lead to three shots going into the final round.

He is smashing his driver long and straight, just like always. He is hitting wedges good enough for multiple birdie chances.

And now the putts are going in.

Eighteen birdies and one eagle putt later, Johnson was at 18-under 198 and closing in on his third victory of the year.

Paul Casey did his best to stay with him. Casey, coming off a runner-up finish on Labor Day at the TPC Boston, matched two of Johnson’s birdies during his late run until he had to

scramble for pars on the last two holes.

He still managed a bogey-free 68 and will be in the final group Sunday.

Johnson will be going for his third victory of the year, which would move him to the top of the FedEx Cup going into the finale at the Tour Championship in two weeks and make him a heavy favorite to win PGA Tour player of the year and the Vardon Trophy.

NEW YORK – Early in what would become a tight test of a U.S. Open final, Angelique Kerber sprinted forward to somehow reach a drop shot and scoop a downthe-line winner that landed in a corner of the court.

The Arthur Ashe Stadium crowd roared, and Kerber celebrated by raising her right Angelique hand and wagging her Kerber index finger in the air, as if to remind opponent Karolina Pliskova – and everyone else – “I’m No. 1!”

Yes, she is. And a two-time Grand Slam champion, too.

Kerber won her first U.S. Open title and the second major trophy of an outof-nowhere breakthrough season, taking five of the last six games to beat a fading Pliskova, 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, Saturday.

“It means a lot to me. When I was a

kid, I was always dreaming to one day be the No. 1 player in the world, to win Grand Slams,” said the 28-year-old Kerber, who will move up one spot from No. 2 and replace Serena Williams atop the WTA rankings on Monday. “I mean, all the dreams came true this year.”

Never a Grand Slam finalist before 2016, Kerber beat Williams for the Australian Open title in January, then was the runner-up to her at Wimbledon in July. Adding the championship at Flushing Meadows was further proof that all of the changes Kerber has made are paying off.

The better fitness, via extra time in the gym and longer, more intense practice sessions; an improved serve and a new willingness to attack during points, rather than mainly counter-punching, via instruction from coach Torben Beltz; a more positive attitude on court, via help from a mental coach.

“Of course, now everybody will try to beat me and have nothing to lose,” Kerber said. “I will try to take this challenge.”

Being in the right can end up wrong Not long ago, my daughter asked me, “When was the last time you were in a car crash in which you were the driver?”

I had to think about that, because it only happened to me once, almost a million miles ago – literally.

It was late winter of 1965, and I was driving my older brother’s Chevy through Franklin Park, with him sitting in the passenger seat. I was a new driver, and I needed the experience.

A light snow began to fall, but it was rush hour and traffic was moving slowly, so he trusted me to stay behind the wheel even though the road surface was now powdered white.

We were traveling westbound on Grand Avenue, a main thoroughfare, and we were approaching a traffic light that had turned red a couple hundred yards ahead. I took my foot off the gas and coasted, going no more than 20 mph or so, my eyes trained on the cars ahead of me doing the same.

As I coasted, a car on a perpendicular side street approached his stop sign, but the driver was going too fast under the snowy conditions. He skidded past the sign, and by the time I noticed him sliding into traffic, it was too late for me to stop and let him slide past in front of us. He slammed into the right front fender of my brother’s car while I was at the wheel.

It was clearly the other driver’s fault, but when a cop showed up he took one look at the cars – one occupied by a couple of teenagers on the main thoroughfare who clearly had the right of way, and the other occupied by a middle-aged man at the end of skid marks past a stop sign in the snow.

The cop called it a no-fault accident and sent us all on our way. Welcome to the world of grown-ups, kid.

But because this was before the age of no-fault insurance, I paid the repair bills on my brother’s car out of my empty, aching pocket.

My daughter nodded as I told her

the story, because she had heard it all from me years ago, when she was a new driver and I wanted her to learn an important lesson.

“There’s no question that I had the right-of-way,” I told her. “But that accident would never happen to me again after that, because I learned to watch for other drivers making obvious stupid mistakes. Being right is small consolation when you still have to clean up the mess that some other moron made in your life.”

It’s a lesson that may well have saved my life a few times.

Some 20 years after that fenderbender, I was driving west on Irving Park Road with my young son in the back seat. It was a beautiful summer Saturday morning, and we were headed off for a few hours of fishing.

As we got farther out in the country, the four-lane road we were traveling on was about to squeeze down to two lanes, but the guy in the car edging forward next to me didn’t see it coming because he was chatting with the girl in the passenger seat next to him.

Should I speed up and get ahead of him before the merge, or drop back and fall in behind him?

I hit the brake and let him pass, then sat behind him at the next red light at Bartlett Road.

When it turned green, he jackrabbited into the intersection – right into the path of a speeding panel van trying to beat the red light in the other direction. The van T-boned his car at the driver’s side door, collapsing the car to half its width. The driver of the car went through the windshield and ended up head-down in a water-filled ditch, with his girlfriend knocked unconscious.

By the time I pulled over and ran to the ditch to haul the driver to dry ground, it was too late for him.

He had waited for the light to turn green before driving into the intersection. He had the right-of-way. He had

done nothing wrong.

But through no fault of his own, he was dead, thanks to the mess some other moron made in his life.

When paramedics showed up, my son and I turned around and drove home. “Your hands are really dirty, Dad,” he said, but when I looked at them I saw that it wasn’t dirt. It was dried blood.

“I know,” I said, wiping my hands on my jeans so he wouldn’t see them, haunted by whose blood it might have been if we had been the first ones to the traffic light.

Still, I think if I had been first in line at that red light, I would have seen that van coming when the light changed, that I would have let him flash into the space the law said belonged to me at the moment, and everyone would have enjoyed a summer Saturday without anybody dying with the right-of-way on their side.

It cost me a crumpled fender decades earlier to learn it, but in the end, it’s a lesson that has served me well: It can be dangerous to put unlimited trust that no harm will come to you from others just because you’ve done no wrong.

It’s an important lesson to consider no matter where you travel – on the road, on the internet, at a drunken fraternity party.

It’s not enough just to be right. You also have to be vigilant to watch out for the thoughtlessness, carelessness or even criminality of others who may have no respect for your rights.

Because when you’ve been slammed around by some moron who’s completely in the wrong, it’s cold comfort to know the right was on your side all along.

Alcoholism has many faces

I guess if I’ve learned anything over the years about alcoholism and addiction in general it is that it has many faces.

Take, for example, a dear friend of mine who has a distinguished academic career, written textbooks and lectured worldwide. He only drinks wine and now, in his later years, limits it to three 6-ounce glasses an evening (unless it’s a special occasion, of which there are many, and then he might expand his parameters). He used to use drugs and drink quite a bit more but cut back for health reasons and, he would say, “to make sure it doesn’t get out-of-hand.”

What he doesn’t know is his tolerance isn’t what it used to be, and the measuring of ounces has gotten noticeably sloppy. In addition, both of his adult kids have alcohol problems, and his wife has been an Al Anon attendee for years. Nobody even tries to talk to him after 6 p.m. because he’s slurry and smarmy and forgets.

He is, however, an esteemed person, wellrespected professionally, a responsible parent and rarely drunk publicly. He’s able to fool both himself and pretty much everybody else except his closest friends, who puzzle at his ability to carry on with the double life. He doesn’t look like an alcoholic. Or does he?

Then there’s another acquaintance who grew up in an overtly violent alcoholic home. He saw his dad drink heavily and often. He saw physical violence toward his older brother, older sister and mother, though not toward him. He was the youngest and most identified with dad. His dad took him under his wing and taught him how to drink.

He was drinking alcoholically by age 14 and rarely did any drugs. His adult drinking pattern was always drinking to drunkenness, blacking out or passing out almost every time. This became socially cumbersome, so he learned to avoid drinking too much in social settings, becoming a lone-wolf, at-home drinker.

He could look and act normal in most social settings but once alone would binge drink and be drunk to the point of nerve-rattling detox and sometimes short hospital stays. There was little doubt based on his obvious history and his clear lack of control over his drinking that he was a real alcoholic, right?

These two cases are as different in history, age of onset, pattern of drinking, symptoms, physical effects, drugs of choice and demographics as they could be, but in truth, there is no “real alcoholic” other than those who identify a loss of control over their drinking (which some call powerless) and identify that their external problems (whether physical, emotional or social) are created by drinking/drugs or the time spent acquiring or desiring to consume them (which some call unmanageability).

It seems to me there are as many types of alcoholics and drug addicts as there are alcohols and drugs.

I hope knowing this helps limit stereotyping and increases our ability to look at symptoms of an illness rather than at character and appearances.

3 ‘Leaf’ the beaten path for stunning foliage, killer selfies The ASSOCIATED PRESS Though autumn is beautiful in Illinois, New England is legendary for its colors. The Northeast’s fall foliage dazzles locals and draws millions of tourists. Those willing to make the trip often flock to the same tired vantage points. Those willing to venture off the beaten path will be rewarded with stunning and comparatively uncrowded autumn vistas – and some killer selfies. If you’re thinking about seeing how the views stack up out east, here’s your guide to the best corners of New England and upstate New York for leaf-peeping:

Connecticut

The Heublein Tower in Simsbury, Connecticut sits at the top of Talcott Mountain State Park. The 165-foot tower was built in 1914 by liquor magnate Gilbert Heublein as a summer home and offers spectacular views that on a clear day extend north to the Berkshires in Massachusetts and south to Long Island Sound.

Getting to the tower involves a relatively easy 1¼-mile hike up a foliage-filled trail that winds up the mountain with plenty of overlooks of the Farmington River Valley. There’s also a nearby pumpkin patch, where visitors can enjoy hayrides and pumpkin picking.

Maine

Nestled in tiny Turner in the foothills of Maine, Ricker Hill Orchards combines two of New England’s most beloved autumn activities: picking your own apples and admiring the turning leaves. The orchard’s hillside “u-pick” area offers a stunning view of Maine’s western lakes and mountains region, with views of foliage stretching all the way to New Hampshire. The ninth-generation orchard also offers fall staples such as cider and cider doughnuts along with its apples and views. It’s about an hour’s drive north of Portland – a ride with its own superb views of the fall spectacle.

Massachusetts

Most people associate Cape Cod with summer, sand and surf, but the peninsula offers some postcard-perfect backdrops for foliage.

Cross over the Sagamore Bridge and take the first exit onto rural Route 6A, which winds and twists through the scenic and historic town of Sandwich. The Old King’s Highway, as it used to be known, hugs Cape Cod Bay and is lined with ancient stone walls, white picket fences, ponds and pastures. Two worthwhile stops in Sandwich: Heritage Museums and Gardens, where you can meander paths bordered by stunning flora; and the Green Briar Nature Center, next to the conservation area where Thornton Burgess dreamed up Peter Rabbit and other characters.

New Hampshire

Don’t want to limit your leaf-peeping to a single state – or, for that matter – country? Head to Milan State Park, where a fire tower offers simultaneous views of the mountain ranges of New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont and Canada. Brilliant leaves in the foreground contrast beautifully with fog that settles in the valleys and the mountains in the distance. The recently renovated park, about 125 miles north of the state capital of Concord, includes a hilltop campground with a half-dozen campsites and four furnished yurts available to rent through Oct. 24.

AP photo

In this photo provided by the Vermont Department of Tourism and Marketing, people take in the fall foliage from Owls Head Mountain in Groton State Forest in Vermont. Kettle Pond is seen in the distance.

New York

In the southern Adirondacks, the stony Sacandaga River and a series of forest-rimmed lakes reflect blazing orange and yellow leaves along a 50-mile stretch of Route 30 from Northville to Indian Lake, where the Great Adirondack Moose Festival is slated for Sept. 24-25.

There are long stretches of unbroken wilderness between the hamlets of Wells, Speculator and Indian Lake, with hiking trails leading to secluded ponds, waterfalls and small mountains with big views.

Rhode Island

For an urban leaf-peeping experience, there are few places more picturesque than historic Benefit Street in Providence, Rhode Island. Hundred-year-old elms and other mature trees provide a canopy of spectacular color over brick sidewalks.

The mile-long street runs past a collection of Colonial, Federal and Greek Revival-style homes, and several historic churches, including the First Baptist Church in America. Situated midway up the steep College Hill, it offers occasional glimpses of a more modern downtown, the Rhode Island Statehouse and rivers below. Above it is the main campus of Brown University, another lovely spot for fall color.

Vermont

The top of Owls Head Mountain, reached by a short hiking trail in the Groton State Forest off state Route 232, offers consistently world-class foliage displays.

With an elevation of 1,958 feet, the view from the rock face near the peak includes spectacular views of Lake Groton, Kettle Pond, Peacham Bog and an unbroken expanse of forest that in late September and early October glows red, orange and yellow. While the more adventurous can make a 1.5-mile hike that’s rated as easy to moderate, it’s also possible to drive to a parking area near the top for a short walk that makes it an ideal outing with kids.

One of the guest bedrooms on the main floor of the home of Anna and Terry Hanrahan of Crystal Lake. The home will be featured on the Service League’s Housewalk.

If you go WHEN: 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5 to 9 p.m.

Sept. 16 WHERE: Four locations throughout Crystal Lake INFO: Tour four homes for the Service League of Crystal Lake’s Housewalk with the theme Old Roots ~ New Shoots. Raffle tickets for $5 each or five for $20 are sold in advance by Service League members or the day of the event at each home. Cost: $30 before the event at www.slcrystallake.org or

at the following businesses: Around the Clock Restaurant & Bakery, Countryside Flower Shop, Nursery and Garden Center, Dalzell & Co., 1776 Restaurant, Twisted Stem Floral, Wickham Interiors Inc., Yours & Meyn Simply Designed, Shay for You and Your Home and Mueller Interiors. Tickets also available the day of the walk for $40. Proceeds fund scholarships for local high school students and to help area residents in need of assistance.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Every home has a story all its own, but what about the bigger picture?

The story isn’t just what lives within its four walls; the community that surrounds it also is a major player.

From a hub of ice harvesting in the mid-1800s to the now residential community many are proud to call home, Crystal Lake has been through some major evolutions.

On Sept. 16, the 42nd annual Housewalk sponsored by the Service League of Crystal Lake will send attendees on a stroll through Crystal Lake’s history.

The walk features four homes from lakeside to city center. This year’s theme is Old Roots ~ New Shoots, characterizing the new growth stemming from the city’s roots.

“It explains how Crystal Lake started with ice companies, which drew people to the area initially, then more people decided to come here recreationally and then settle permanently,” 2016 Housewalk Chair Karen Kopp said. “This year’s story very much focuses on the city center as well as the lake and

how people were drawn to Crystal Lake. It was and is a great place to live both in the present, past and future. As a resident, I feel a strong connection to it.”

The first home takes viewers by the rail spur line, which now is Dole Avenue. The line was built from the village of Nunda to Crystal Lake to transport ice cut from the lake to Chicago, as well as to bring visitors from Chicago to the area. The Thompson colonial is a mix of historic charisma with some modern upgrades, organizers said.

The walk then moves lakeside to a vacation getaway near the former Lake Shore Hotel, once one of Crystal Lake’s premier vacation spots. The North Shore Lake House gives viewers a taste of life on the lake.

The third stop lands on the door step of owners Terry and Anna Hanrahan’s Hideaway. This 2012 custom-built, end-lot home features a bicycle path. Anna Hanrahan said the path is a great feature of the Gates community in which they live and sees lots of activity from its members, including walking, bike riding and children playing. However, its significance goes a step further.

• HOUSEWALK

Continued from page 4 “The pathway that runs along our home used to be Country Club Road,” Hanrahan said. “It used to run along the south end of our home. There used to be a house on the road that no longer exists.”

The real estate agent said she has attended the Housewalk before and is a good candidate for showcasing as well as participating.

“I love houses. It is something I have always loved, inside and out,” Hanrahan said. “We designed the house ourselves and put a lot of work into it. We want to showcase it. There is a possibility of us selling in the near future since we are now empty nesters with four grown children around the country. We had great fun doing it, but it wasn’t until it was all said and done that we realized it is way too big. We got caught up in the process, but no regrets, we love it.”

In preparation, the Hanrahan’s updated the carpet in the master bedroom, retouched some paint, put a lot of time into their garden and lawn, really “upped their game,” Hanrahan said.

“I hope a lot of people come out because it’s for a great cause and

it’s great fun,” she said. “People are curious about other neighborhoods, what’s trending. We all have a little bit of a voyeur in us.

People love to take a glimpse into other’s people’s lives.”

The walk culminates at the city’s center at The Main Restoration, a multi-purpose occupancy location that combines past and present in a unique, loft-like setting. The building features three business showrooms as well as the owner’s current living residence.

The Housewalk takes place

from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sept. 16. Tickets are available for $30 before the event online at www.slcrystallake.org and at local Crystal Lake businesses. Tickets also are available the day of the event for $40. Raffle tickets will be available for $5 or five for $20 in advance by Service League members as well as the day of the event at each home for the chance to win cash prizes as well as a Chrysalis bracelet set donated by Dalzell & Co. Last year’s walk raised more

than $25,000, with all proceeds going back to the community for scholarships to local high school students and residents in need of assistance. Kopp said she hopes to surpass last year’s mark.

“Of course we always want to do more and our goal is to be as successful as possible to meet the needs of the community,” Kopp said. “It’s a great day out and something fun to do with a group of friends. It’s different. It’s inspirational and a fun tradition to start.”

Author Spotlight

ERIC G. MATLIN

Hometown: I spent my early years on the south side of Chicago (thereby becoming a lifelong White Sox fan), spent my formative years in Morton Grove, raised my children in Glencoe and now reside in Winnetka.

Latest Book: “Not Dead Yet, So Plan Your Estate” Publisher: Ozanam Publishing Inc. Release Date: May 10, 2016 Where can we find your new book?

NotDeadYetBook.net, Read Between the Lynes Bookstore in Woodstock and Amazon.com What’s it about?

As a lawyer concentrating my practice on estate planning (mainly wills, trusts and powers of attorney), I always have tried to articulate to a large audience of skeptics why estate planning applies to them, not just the sick, elderly and wealthy.

Where did the idea come from?

I always loved comics. About eight years ago, I decided to write “Not Dead Yet, So Plan Your Estate” (NDY), combining a graphic novel story with pithy legal text.

What genre is your book, and why were you drawn to it?

I would like brick-and-mortar bookstores to put it in both legal and graphic novel sections. It is about two-thirds text and onethird graphic novel. About half of the graphic vignettes that precede the text relate directly to the written chapters that follow.

Who is the intended audience?

Eighteen to 98! Eighteen on the young side, because that is the age at which a child becomes a legal adult and parents lose control over medical access and decision-making.

Every 18-year-old should have a power of attorney for health care (available online) filled out naming an agent in the event of a catastrophe.

Why is this story important to you?

Once people understand the broad range of estate planning needs, they will take actions to avoid potentially unpleasant situation in life/death circumstances. Also, legacies do not end at death. Good estate planning burnishes legacies.

How long did it take you to write? What was your process?

Eight years and a lot of help. I hired one artist, who I found on Freelance.com, then six years later attended a Wizard World comic convention and found another artist who is well-versed in the world of comics. Then I hired someone to redesign everything. Other people who were instrumental are thanked in the acknowledgements at the beginning of the book.

What did you enjoy most about writing this book? What was the hardest part?

I enjoyed using the voice I speak with to clients. By refining my edits, it made me a better writer and better lawyer. I feel good about educating people in the subject of estate planning, while having fun. The hardest part of writing a book is finishing and letting it go, even when there is at least one edit I still want to make.

How are you publishing this book and why (traditional/indie/self-publishing)?

It is difficult to obtain a publisher like Penguin, which published my first book, without an agent. The only reason I got an agent the first time around is because one of my associates had a BFF whose cousin was a New York literary agent. I had moderate success with the first book (5,000 to 7,000 copies sold).

My associate back in 2004 no longer works for me, and the agent was not interested in my project. Rather than waste time hunting for an agent, I decided to use CreateSpace, the publishing arm of Amazon, which is great for publishing on demand.

However, when I decided to make NDY a full-color book, I learned printing it with them would be prohibitively expensive. I ended up printing in Taiwan for a third of the cost.

What is your education/background?

I attended Maine Township High School East, college at DePaul and obtained my law degree from John Marshall Law School.

How/why did you decide to write a book?

This is my second book. My first one, “The Procrastinator’s Guide to Wills and Estate Planning” was more of a “typical” estateplanning book with text and a few graphics.

Every “dummy” or “idiot” guide reads like a textbook. I wanted something differently appealing. NDY is definitely one-of-a-kind.

Who are your favorite authors?

Stephen King, whose Dark Tower series is an obvious influence in NDY’s graphic novel book-within-a-book, as our hero, Don, journeys through time and space. Robert Heinlein’s

“Stranger in a Strange Land” is one that I come back to. I’ve read virtually everything by Elmore Leonard. Some of my favorite fiction is

by John Irving and Larry McMurtry Pick one: Danielle Steel or John Grisham?

Grisham Pick one: Stephen King or Nicholas Sparks?

King Pick one: Ebooks or hard/paperbacks?

Paperbacks, except when they are very thick. I enjoyed reading “A Game of Thrones” on my Kindle, as my arms tire when holding up an 800-page book.

Have you written anything else?

“The Procrastinator’s Guide to Wills and Estate Planning” What’s next for you?

Marketing NDY and continuing to expand my law practice. Other than keeping NDY up to date, I don’t see any more books by me, but you never know. Maybe a coloring book with an estate planning theme.

How can readers discover more about you and you work?

Gem Talk

I always find it exciting when I get a new type of jewelry in to appraise. I love the investigative part where I have to scour the Internet and my jewelry books to learn By Karly Bulinski about the history of the piece. I recently worked with a customer who had reverse painted crystal jewelry. I had never seen this type of jewelry before so of course my interest was piqued right away. After researching for a few days, I found the story of these little mini works of art to be intriguing and I thought maybe you would too!

Many of you are already familiar with the term cameo – a piece of jewelry that has a carved profile portrait in relief on a background of a different color – but have you ever heard of the cameo’s cousin, an intaglio? Intaglios are pieces of jewelry that have an engraving or carving on the inside of the gemstone.

Reversed carved crystals are intaglios that are hand carved and then hand painted on circular pieces of polished rock crystal quartz. This miniature art form began over 1,000 years ago in Belgium by an artist named Emile Marius Pradier. He would etch a design into the back of a crystal and either fill it with different colored materials or paint it. His works of art varied and included portraits, flowers, animals and landscape scenes.

The technique to carve these little masterpieces is quite extensive. First, the crystal needs to be cut and polished with a diamond saw to get the exact shape ideal for carving – usually a round cabochon. Next, the design is etched into the back of the stone and finally it is painted. All of this work is done by hand and is so intricate Graduate Gemologist that when it comes time to for painting, the brush that is used only has one hair on Email jewelry questions to: it! Generally a mother of pearl or gold foil backing would be applied to protect the suzanne@steffansjewelers.com paintings. or karly@steffansjewelers.com As time went on, the materials used for these intaglios changed from rock crystal quartz to glass and plastic. As they began to gain popularity in the 1940’s and 50’s the designs were carved by machine rather than by hand making these products accessible to all of the carved crystal enthusiasts. They lasted in popularity until the 1960’s.

Crystal carving has always been a family venture and there are very few artists in the present day that have the knowledge or ability to produce these crystals, making the WWW.STEFFANSJEWELERS.COM process of reverse intaglio one of the most respected art forms of today.

While we don’t have any of these little masterpieces currently in the store, there are several photos of them up on our website under the Gem Talk tab.
