Camping is trickier in the rain We spent the better part of a week camping along the shore of Lake Superior in Hiawatha National Forest’s Bay Furnace campground, finishing off our second summer of camping vacations.

We’ve been pretty lucky with weather, and by weather, when you’re camping, that means rain. Rain is not good, especially when you are in a tent. Or when you are out of the tent, for that matter.

We’re used to all of the pleasant accommodations of home – a roof over our heads, windows that close, an attached garage, even if it is big enough for only one car. A house makes rain tolerable. You can wait the storm out before venturing outside. You can sleep through rain without a care in the world.

In a tent, that’s not the case. You worry.

You fret. You wait for that first drop of water to come splashing down. And then it’s only a matter of time before the inside becomes like the outside, a veritable downpour. Luckily, that didn’t happen.

When I was growing up, tents were made out of heavy canvas. And those tents were heavy. And they pretty much stood up to rain, although you were never to touch the canvas when it was raining unless you wanted a leak to develop. And what kid isn’t going to tempt the fates and touch the tent in the rain, just to see what would happen?

It was true. A simple swiping touch wouldn’t do anything, but if you held your finger against the canvas, a leak would develop, and, of course, you wouldn’t admit to anything.

It’s raining, after all, and canvas tents leak.

Find a can or a pot for the water to drip into.

Fortunately, from what I recall, rain was never a serious problem when my parents packed the six of us kids into the station wagon to go camping.

You only have to touch the tent once to prove a point – yes, they do leak when you touch them, and, no, you don’t want to touch them if you prefer to stay dry while inside.

Lesson learned.

Tents nowadays are made out of some kind of nylon blend, and not only are they lightweight, they are pretty resistant to rain in moderate amounts. I don’t know whether nylon tents leak if you touch them, but my experience with the canvas tent was enough for me to keep my hands to myself and to keep everything inside the tent from touching the walls of the tent. The last thing we wanted was to spring a leak.

And one night, it started raining. Not just a drizzle, but hard – enough to wake you up. And there’s not much you can do about it but hope that the tent is water resistant and fall back

WHERE IT’S AT

VIEWS Dick Peterson asleep. My good wife and I woke up the next morning to a continuing rainfall, accompanied by thunder and lightning. And it continued to pour until early afternoon.

Water was pooling on the fly directly over our heads where we were sleeping, and I watched that pool for the longest time, waiting for it to begin the drip, drip, drip of a leak right onto our sleeping bags. Wouldn’t that be just great? Water in my face. But it never happened, and when the rain let up for a little bit, I went outside and pulled on the fly to drain the water out of the pool.

But as time wore on, a leak did develop right in the middle of the tent. It wasn’t really a dripping leak but a mist that formed droplets, and I really didn’t want to think about it because there was nothing we could do. We had cloth mats spread around the tent and towels, and they absorbed the water. But not too long after that, the rain stopped, and we were saved. A camping inconvenience averted.

For the most part, the tent proved to be water resistant, if not waterproof. And the rain cleared off for the rest of the afternoon and evening, giving the tent time to dry itself out to be ready for another rainfall.

The next night it rained again, although not nearly as hard, and we were quite confident we would stay dry inside. But again it rained until early afternoon, wiping out another morning of frolicking in the Upper Peninsula, leaving us several hours in the afternoon to explore.

In the evening, it rained ever so slightly while we were eating dinner, enough for us to put our camp chairs inside the tent as they were beginning to be splotched with raindrops. It’s dreary eating when you are being spit upon by the sky.

But by morning, the skies began to clear, and soon all the clouds were gone, leaving nothing but clear blue sky for the balance of the trip. We even lucked out and broke camp under the clear blue. Rain while you’re camping is one thing; I can’t imagine anything quite as disconcerting as breaking camp in the rain.

Maybe that test is for next year, but I’m hoping the third time is the charm – no rain at all.

ON THE COVER McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Tim Creighton demonstrates a traffic stop. A new Illinois law that aims to educate people in knowing what to do when stopped by police. The law will also mandate that all driver’s education classes include a section on what to do during a traffic stop. This measure comes in light of heightened tension across the nation over how traffic stops can go terribly wrong.

Lessons aimed to prevent teen drivers from escalating routine traffic stops

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com New driver’s education students in Illinois will soon have another necessary – and possibly life-saving – lesson to learn.

Gov. Bruce Rauner signed a bill into law last month that mandates dedicated instruction time to teach students what to do and what not to do when they are pulled over by police.

The bill, sponsored by Sen. Julie Morrison, D-Deerfield, aims to prevent teen drivers from panicking or doing anything that might put an officer on guard that could lead to a routine traffic stop escalating into a more serious situation.

private and public schools that offer driver’s education courses. Driver training schools providing instruction to teens younger than 18 will be expected to comply by June 30, 2017. The secretary of state’s office will be required to develop the specific guidelines.

Several local police departments say this is an important step in improving the communication between new drivers and police officers.

Lake in the Hills Police Chief Dave DAVE BREY, Brey said providing the additional Lake in the Hills police chief tools on how to handle a traffic stop is necessary given the lack of formal education now.

“We concentrate on teaching them The new curriculum will be put in the rules of the road, but we don’t tell place for the 2017-18 school year at all them what to do in the event that they

get pulled over by a police officer,” he said.

Brey said that when he taught his daughter how to drive, they were pulled over and she “panicked behind the wheel.” This reaction, he said, is more common than people think, but it can also create unnecessary tension between the driver and officer.

Getting out of the car or reaching around to the backseat might not seem alarming to the driver, but those actions can heighten the situation and raise red flags to a police officer.

“If things start to happen that are out of the norm, you are putting the officer on guard,” he said. “That’s how

Sweet Repeats Thrift Shoppe manager Cindy Howver adjusts a display at the store in the Huntley Outlet Mall. The shop will be moving in October because the mall management stopped renewing leases. Proceeds from the shop’s sales benefit different community organizations, such as the Huntley Library and food pantries.

Thrift store that benefits local organizations looks to relocate

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Sweet Repeats Thrift Shoppe is looking to relocate to its former spot in Huntley.

The resale store run by Journey Church moved to the Huntley Outlet Center in 2013 and must move again because the outlet is not renewing leases with its tenants. The store was previously owned by Pioneer Center for Human Services.

At Sweet Repeats Thrift Shoppe, people can buy affordable furniture, clothes, toys and more. The store also gives back to local groups such as the Grafton Food Pantry and Huntley Community School District 158’s Life Instruction Guiding Huntley Transition program, store manager Cindy Howver said.

“The whole thing is about the community,” Howver said. “It’s helping our community thrive.”

Harriet Ford, who is on the board of directors at Grafton Food Pantry, said the pantry receives weekly food donations from the store.

“The whole thing is about the community. It’s helping our community thrive.”

Cindy Howver

Sweet Repeats Thrift Shoppe manager People receive 10 percent off their purchase if they bring in a bag of food for Grafton Food Pantry, Howver said.

“It’s a mutually beneficial relationship that we can help each other,” Ford said. “And so we’re very appreciative of that.”

The store also benefits students in District 158’s special education program, LIGHT, which is geared toward helping 18- to 21-year-olds transition to their post-high school goals.

Liz Kienzle, transition facilitator with District 158 who oversees the LIGHT program, said Sweet Repeats hires students from the program to work at the store.

“This is an experience they can put on their resume,” Kienzle said.

“They’re learning soft skills, they’re

learning transferable skills.”

There are about 50 students in the LIGHT program, Kienzle said, and about two generally work at Sweet Repeats.

Howver also started a scholarship program for LIGHT students taking classes at MCC who generally do not receive any financial aid, Kienzle said.

“They’re really focused on the community and giving back,” Kienzle said. “... We couldn’t ask for anything better.”

The village will need to issue a special use permit for the space, 10514 Route 47, before Sweet Repeats can move in again. It is expected to come before the Huntley Village Board at its next meeting, 7 p.m. Thursday at Huntley Village Hall, 10987 E. Main St. Howver said the store will remain open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. seven days a week at the Huntley Outlet Center through October, and will change its hours to 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. once it moves to the new space.

For information on the store, visit Sweet Repeats Thrift Shoppe’s Facebook page.

FOX RIVER GROVE – The Fox River Grove Committee of the Whole agreed to move forward with plans for a residential development off County Line Road.

The approximately three-acre vacant property on County Line Road south of Route 22 in Fox River Grove would include a 24-unit subdivision with duplexes and townhouses, said Michael Graft Jr., developer for the project with Great Properties II LLC. The homes would be geared toward aging baby boomers looking for a low-maintenance property, which will cost an average of $300,000 per unit, Graft said.

The project will start with four duplexes and eventually expand if there is enough demand, Graft said. If there’s not demand for housing, office complexes similar to ones north of the property, will be built, he said.

“Generally in one building cycle, we should be able to know exactly what that demand is,” Graft said at Thursday’s Committee of the Whole meeting.

Trustee Steve Knar questioned the demand for office units and the density of the subdivision.

Great Properties II already has a vacant parcel to the south of the property that was approved for office units, Village Administrator Derek Soderholm said, but has never been built on.

“You haven’t had enough demand to build anything there yet, so why would you think that adding three more buildings would even be in the realm of possibility?” Knar said.

Graft responded by saying the intention for the subdivision is to make it completely residential, and the supply and demand curve seems to be pushing in a good direction for the development.

As far as the density of the properties, Graft said people from empty nesters, to retirees to millennials are not looking to maintain a yard.

There also would not be sidewalks in front of the homes, Graft said, because they would lead to nowhere and limit parking space.

Trustees agreed to put the item on the agenda for the next village board meeting, 6:30 p.m. Oct. 6 at Fox River Grove Village Hall, 305 Illinois St.

kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Board’s first order of business Tuesday evening will be to fill a vacancy to make itself whole through the election.

Board members will vote to appoint rural Cary businessman Chris Christensen to fill the remaining two and a half months of former member Nick Provenzano, of McHenry, who stepped down earlier this month to work full time as deputy district director for Republican U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Plano. County Board Chairman Joe Gottemoller, R-Crystal Lake, will submit Christensen’s name for the vote.

Christensen also replaced Provenzano on the Nov. 6 ballot to run for County Board District 3 – Republican precinct committeemen chose him over candidate Nancy Gonsiorek for the position.

Should Christensen win election to the board in November, he and the other newly elected members will be sworn in at the Dec. 5 meeting.

If appointed Tuesday by a County Board vote, Christensen will take Provenzano’s place on the board’s Finance and Audit, Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs, Transportation and Facilities committees. He will only

The McHenry County Board meets at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the county Administration Building, 667 Ware Road, Woodstock. be a member of the legislative committee – member Larry Smith, R-Harvard, will take the chairmanship that Provenzano held.

Christensen is running in District 3 with fellow Republican board candidate Michael Walkup, R-Crystal Lake, against Democratic challengers Kathleen Bergan Schmidt and Diane Johnson, both of Crystal Lake. Bergan Schmidt was chosen to replace Democratic candidate Kenneth Miller, who died Sept. 9.

District 3 covers Nunda, southeastern McHenry and northeastern Algonquin townships and includes all or parts of Crystal Lake, McHenry, Prairie Grove, Lakemoor, Holiday Hills, Island Lake, Oakwood Hills and Port Barrington.

Tuesday evening’s agenda also includes a presentation by County Clerk Mary McClellan regarding changes in the office pertaining to elections, and proposed changes for 2017 to employee health insurance coverage.

Since at least 1860, McHenry County schools have had rules in place for students and staff. In the days of one- or two-room buildings, they were easier to enforce. But it became a bit more challenging when “modern” schools, such as the two-story Richmond Grade School (pictured) opened in 1861. School districts required that students be punctual, attend regularly and on time, proceed through the halls in a quiet and studious manner, remain cheerfully obedient, and speak only when called upon in class.

The state also established a calendar, which today dictates no fewer than 185 days – 176 of them with students in attendance. And for McHenry County students, the first day of class starts as early as mid-August – far different than the post-Labor Day start times of their elders. These “agrarian calendars” evolved as a way to keep kids down on the farm during planting season. But times changed.

As we entered the 21st century, many districts began pushing up the calendar … even though the same reluctant types no doubt remain seated at the back of the classroom.

river for fishing, boating and kayaking. It’s such an essential part of the area.”

During the first hour of the event, attendees visited informative booths, listened to speakers talk about their environmentally friendly programs and watched a water demonstration presented by the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District. The safety demonstration showed local residents how the fire department would execute a water rescue if someone was drowning or caught in the river’s stream.

At 2 p.m., it was time to start cleaning up the river. Volunteers put on gloves, grabbed some bags and started picking up any garbage they saw near the water. Nic Prate, a junior at Jacobs High School, was one of the many volunteers. Prate said he found littered items such as beer cans, fishing hooks, wires and bottles along the river.

“This is important because we all share this space, and we should make it beautiful because we all live here,” Prate said.

Cindy Skrukrud, director of the clean water program, was also at the environmentally friendly event to educate and warn people about the dangers of chemicals running off into the river.

“If you look at the Fox [River], it looks pretty green right now,” Skrukrud said. “That’s because there are too many nutrients going into the water. People need to be careful about the chemicals they put on their lawn, because that chemical runoff is part of the problem.”

Ray Flavin, Democratic candidate for county state’s attorney rant a standalone Veterans Court call, that is something we would certainly explore,” Wallis said.

Between 2010 and 2014, McHenry County had more than 16,600 veterans, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Woodstock lawyer and Democratic state’s attorney candidate Ray Flavin said as someone who often represents or works with veterans, he was very disappointed when he found out about the veterans track because he believes it hasn’t been well publicized. As part of his platform, Flavin said he is interested in developing a Veterans Court and making it more inclusive.

Gov. Bruce Rauner signed legislation in August that would require the chief judge of every judicial circuit in Illinois to establish a veterans and service members court program. “(Attorneys) should know all of the services that are available. If you don’t

“We don’t have a lot of participation because a lot of times we don’t know who the veterans are and there’s a lot of exclusions from certain types of crimes.”

Patrick Kenneally, Republican candidate for county state’s attorney

communicate that to them, then you might as well not even have those services,” Flavin said.

In order to be able to effectively help those who need it, Flavin said, all specialty courts need to be more inclusive.

Veterans often have trouble fitting into society and can get caught in the criminal justice system. Veterans also consider themselves to be very “self-sufficient” and would rather try and fix the problems themselves than ask for help.

“You have to find every opportunity to grab those people into a mental health system or the veterans commission because if you don’t, then it won’t be addressed,” he said.

According to the Drug Court Treatment Act, certain crimes disqualify participants from entering the specialty court program, including DUIs and other alcohol-related crimes and violent crimes, among others.

Republican state’s attorney candidate Patrick Kenneally said many veterans have issues related to alcohol and so that may disqualify them from participating in the program. He said it might also be difficult to identify who the veterans are.

“We don’t have a lot of participation because a lot of times we don’t know who the veterans are and there’s a lot of exclusions from certain types of crimes,” he said.

Kenneally said currently the state’s attorney’s office works to identify veterans and uses his or her service as a mitigating factor when identifying a resolution of the case.

He also said he has been in touch with the McHenry County Veterans Assistance Commission and TLS Veterans in order to create a full-time case worker to serve as a liaison between the state’s attorney’s office and veteran defendants.

WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County specialty court program has had a veterans track within its system for at least the past several years, but participation has remained low.

As the program continues its operations, officials said what the veterans track might look like down the road remains uncertain.

McHenry County Court Administrator Dan Wallis said the veterans track falls under mental health and drug court. If someone is identified as a veteran and is already accepted into either specialty court, the participant moves along that specific track. Wallis said participation is low because there haven’t been many referrals or self-identified participants. Though the numbers have been low, Wallis said, that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

He said because these court programs require resources and staffing, there needs to be an identified need in order to develop a separate Veterans Court. Court administration is expected to meet with defense attorneys, the state’s attorney’s office and community stakeholders in the coming weeks to evaluate the program currently.

“If there are numbers there to war-

some situations will spiral out of control.”

Crystal Lake Police Deputy Chief Tom Kotlowski said the department already has three school resource officers in each of the high schools, and the new law is just another component of something they are already implementing.

Kotlowski said sometimes police take an event such as a routine traffic stop for granted because they know why they are doing something, but the driver might not understand. By discussing these topics with new drivers, the department can potentially tailor their approach in order to create a more positive interaction during a situation that has potential for a negative outcome.

“We work hard to break those barriers down, whether they’re real or perceived, that an officer is not a real person,” Kotlowski said. “When we get into discussing what we do and why, we can also learn from them on (the driver’s) reactions and why they do what they do.”

Harvard Deputy Police Chief Tyson Bauman said he believes the new law is good because a lot of new drivers are not dealing with police on a daily basis. He said those who are new to the road don’t always know how to react when pulled over by a police officer.

Rabid bat found in Marengo NORTHWEST HERALD WOODSTOCK – A rabid bat was discovered outside a Marengo home Tuesday, according to the McHenry County Department of Health.

Recent test results for the bat confirmed it to be positive for rabies. While no human exposure was reported, there was potential exposure to a puppy, according the health department.

It is recommended that residents keep their pets up-to-date with vaccinations, and if a bat is found, do not touch it directly. If a bat is found inside a home, try to contain a bat in a room and call

Animal Control at 815-459-6222.

To test bats for rabies, the bats need to be in good condition and only cases of confirmed exposure are bats submitted for testing. According to the health department, there have been 53 rabid bats in Illinois reported positive for rabies in 2016, with about 46 of those cases found in the northeastern part of the state.

For information, call the McHenry County Department of Health’s Communicable Disease Program at 815-3344500. To learn about rabies prevention, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at www.cdc.gov/rabies.

CHICAGO – A Maryland historian is a step closer in his fight for the release of decades-old grand jury testimony involving a story the Chicago Tribune published during the World War II Battle of Midway, the newspaper reported.

The story, published June 7, 1942, said the U.S. Navy obtained advance knowledge of the Japanese fleet’s plans. It included precise details such as the names of the Japanese vessels involved in the battle and details of their strategy. The story sparked outrage and a grand jury was impaneled to seek criminal charges against the journalists for violating espionage laws. No indictment was handed up and the testimony was sealed.

Historian and author Elliot Carlson is close to revealing that testimony, The Tribune reported. The U.S. Justice Department has been fighting back, contending that court rules do not permit the release of confidential grand jury records simply because they are of historical interest. Doing so, it said, would undermine the principle of grand jury secrecy.

So far, the courts have sided with Carlson. A federal district judge in Chicago last year ruled in favor of the author, and on Thursday, a three-

ILLINOIS

judge panel of the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed that decision.

The Justice Department could still seek a hearing from the entire appellate court or take the case to the Supreme Court. It declined to comment.

Carlson is writing a book about the Tribune story and its fallout, and he has spent four years trying to get the records.

“I have a manuscript that’s complete but for the last chapter,” he said.

“I want it to be finished as soon as possible.”

The 1942 Tribune story was based on the work of correspondent Stanley Johnston, who came across a decoded message giving details about the Japanese fleet and its movements while he was aboard a Navy transport in the Pacific.

The ship landed in San Diego on June 2, 1942. Four days later, news of the Battle of Midway broke. The Tribune quickly published a story about the Navy’s advance knowledge.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt was furious. The government was worried that the Japanese would learn their code had been broken.

But Carlson said that apparently never happened because its navy continued to use the same compromised code until the end of the war.

Donald Trump glosses over past actions, hopes voters do same

By JULIE PACE

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – With each scripted speech, shift in policy and attempt to whitewash his past behavior, Donald Trump is brazenly betting that voters now settling on their choice for president are willing to shove aside all that came before his late-in-the-campaign recalibration.

It’s a deeply uncertain proposition given Trump’s staggeringly negative standing with most Americans. Polls find more than half believe the Republican nominee is unqualified to be president, and is biased against women and minorities.

But his strategy doesn’t require moving huge segments of the electorate.

Seven weeks from the Nov. 8 election and with absentee ballots already available in a few states, Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton are fighting for a small sliver of undecided voters who, in many cases, simply can’t stomach either.

“What these candidates are trying to convince the voters of is, ‘I’m not as bad as the other one,’” said Neil Newhouse, a Republican pollster.

In recent weeks, Trump’s attempts to make that case have sometimes left him looking like a candidate with little resemblance to the one who stunned the Republican Party during the primaries.

He now largely reads speeches off teleprompters despite casting aspersions on other politicians for relying on the devices. He’s rolled out proposals on policies in which he’s shown no previous interest, including child care and paid family leave. And he’s made overtures to minorities, including blacks and Hispanics, groups with whom he has minimal support.

Trump’s latest attempt to convince voters that he’s the lesser of two evils came Friday, when he abruptly reversed course on his lie that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States.

Trump’s role as chief promoter of the conspiracy theory about the nation’s first black president has left him with almost no support among African-Americans and has turned off moderates who bristle at its racist undertones.

Trump’s newfound acceptance of Obama’s birthplace seems unlikely to sway many of those voters. He offered no apology for pushing the falsehood for years and instead said the rumors originated with Clinton, another inaccurate claim.

“Despite what his campaign strategists told him to say today, I think he still believes that the president wasn’t born in America,” said Dan Pfeiffer, a former Obama adviser who was tasked with releasing the president’s long-form birth certificate to reporters in 2011.

Clinton advisers say their data show no fundamental shift in the public’s perception of Trump, despite preference polls that are tightening nationally and in some battleground states. They believe a summer spent blasting the airwaves with television ads highlighting Trump’s bellicose behavior and questionable business practices, as well as a series of sharply critical speeches from Clinton, have largely cemented voters’ negative view of the real estate mogul and made it impossible for his pivot to take hold.

“Trump has been defined,” said Celinda Lake, a Democratic pollster. She said that’s particularly true among women, who “think he’s the worst date they’ve ever been on.”

A recent Quinnipiac poll found 59 percent of likely voters believe the way Trump talks “appeals to bigotry.” Among likely women voters, 62 percent held that view.

After summer of attacking, In Pain? Call Now! Clinton focuses on herself

By LISA LERER

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – All summer long, Hillary Clinton delighted in snappy attack lines about Donald Trump.

Electing the billionaire, she warned, would be a “historic mistake.” The Republican nominee perpetuates “outlandish Trumpian ideas.” Clinton reveled in imagining her rival “composing nasty tweets” as she derided him as “temperamentally unfit and totally unqualified” to be president.

But as the campaign moves into the final stretch, Clinton finds herself chasing an even more elusive target: herself.

Just seven weeks before Election Day and Clinton’s poll numbers slipping, her campaign is trying – yet again – to explain one of the world’s most famous politicians to a skeptical public.

The effort marks an unusual moment of introspection for Clinton, who has long refused to engage in the kind of public self-examination that can help transform would-be heads of state into relatable figures.

The start of September brought a series of near-apologies from Clinton, a notable shift for a candidate who took months to express remorse for her decision to use a private email system while running the State Department.

Her vote for the Iraq war and decision to set up a private email server in her suburban New York home were both “a mistake,” she said at a national security forum hosted by NBC. A latenight comment at a fundraiser that half of Donald Trump’s supporters fit into a “basket of deplorables” prompted a quick statement of partial regret – for branding “half” of them that way.

And her campaign took “responsi-

bility” for not being “fast enough” in disclosing she had pneumonia after a video showed Clinton staggering leaving a 9/11 ceremony.

She also lamented that some voters view her as aloof.

“I don’t view myself as cold or unemotional,” she said in her post to the popular website Humans of New York.

“And neither do my friends. And neither does my family.” She went on: “But if that sometimes is the perception I create, then I can’t blame people for thinking that.”

The campaign hopes that such public shows of humility, alongside a series of speeches designed to lay out her vision for the country, will persuade voters to reconsider their feelings about Clinton.

In the campaign’s final stretch, her aides plan to show off Clinton in governing mode – meeting world leaders during the United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York City, for example. They argue that people like Clinton more when she’s serving in office than when she’s campaigning. Invitations to some creative media appearances, such as a turn on the “Funny or Die” comedy site, have been accepted to play up the warm, self-effacing Clinton that friends say they see in private.

The strategy is designed to address Clinton’s biggest political liability: A majority of voters simply do not trust her.

Ratings of her honesty have remained stubbornly low in polling – even among Democrats. Just 35 percent of Americans, surveyed in an ABC News/ Washington Post poll this month, see Clinton as honest and trustworthy, down from a high of 53 percent in June 2014. Trump ranked only slightly lower at 31 percent.

By KAREN MATTHEWS The Associated Press

NEW YORK – An explosion in a crowded Chelsea neighborhood in Manhattan on Saturday night left more than 25 people injured, and authorities called the blast an “intentional act,” but said there was no terrorist connection.

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said a second site was being investigated.

“Tonight, New York City experienced a very bad incident,” de Blasio said at a news conference near the scene. “We have no credible and specific threat at this moment.”

De Blasio said the blast was “an intentional act” and tried to calm any fears among nervous New Yorkers, saying the explosion had no terrorist connection and wasn’t related to a pipe bomb explosion earlier Saturday in New Jersey at a charity run.

A law enforcement official told The Associated Press that the explosion appears to have come from a construction toolbox in front of a building. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the person wasn’t authorized to speak about an ongoing investigation.

The blast happened on West 23rd street, in front of a residence for the blind, near a major thoroughfare with many restaurants. Witnesses said the explosion at about 8:30 p.m. blew out the windows of businesses in the area.

Police spokesman J. Peter Donald said several people were taken to hospitals with injuries.

No detail about the extent of damage was immediately available. A number

of New York City subway routes have been affected by the incident.

Chris Gonzalez, visiting from Dallas, was having dinner with friends at a restaurant in the area.

“We felt it, we heard it, the restaurant went real quiet, the 26-year-old Gonzalez said. “It wasn’t like jolting or anything, everyone just went quiet.”

Rudy Alcide, a bouncer at Vanity Nightclub at 21st Street and 6th Avenue, said he, at first, thought something large had fallen.

“It was an extremely loud noise, everything was shaking, the windows were shaking, it was crazy,” he said. “It was extremely loud, almost like thunder, but louder.”

Witnesses said FBI and Homeland Security officials, along with the ATF arson and explosive task force, also were at the scene.

A law enforcement official said the FBI’s joint terrorism task force was responding and that investigators did not believe the incident was due to a gas leak. The official was not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation and requested anonymity.

The White House said President Barack Obama has been apprised of the explosion in New York City and will be updated as additional information becomes available.

Hillary Clinton said she has been briefed “about the bombings in New York and New Jersey and the attack in Minnesota.”

She said the nation needs to support its first responders and “pray for the victims.”

OUR VIEW

Law should help felons get jobs Late last month, Gov. Bruce Rauner signed a bill that, his office said, will “give former offenders a brighter future.”

The legislation in question will allow people with certain forcible felony convictions to apply for waivers so they can qualify for necessary state licenses that govern certain health care careers.

The impetus for the bill came from people who were convicted of felonies at younger ages, paid their debt to society and wanted to pursue positive paths in their lives by learning skills and seeking employment in those fields.

For the record However, before the new law took effect, people who We urge state officials to wanted to work in health care look at other careers licensed were restricted from qualiby the state to see whether the fying for the necessary state same lifting of restrictions for licenses. felons might be beneficial.

Now, that former lifelong restriction can be lifted – with a few exceptions. The ex-offenders need to petition the state Department of Financial and Professional Regulation to seek the necessary waivers, after a post-conviction waiting period.

It is hoped that more felons who want to set their lives straight will be able to do so now, which should help to reduce recidivism.

“Finding and keeping a job is the best antidote to going back to prison, and this new law will make it easier to do just that,” Rauner said.

The state’s acting prisons chief, John Baldwin, concurs.

“This bill will allow offenders who have completed their sentence and clearly demonstrated their commitment to making a positive contribution to Illinois to work in an area of study that they are trained and licensed in,” Baldwin said.

The agency in charge of licensure, the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation, now will “have the flexibility to consider the totality of applicants’ qualifications and experiences, not ignoring their criminal background but balancing it with evidence of their rehabilitation,” agency chief Bryan Schneider said.

We hope the law, Senate Bill 42, works as intended by its sponsors and supporters.

We also urge state officials to give a look-see at other careers licensed by the state to see whether the same lifting of restrictions for felons might be beneficial.

The state regulates numerous professions – more than 125, by our count. Among the higher-tier professions are architects, funeral directors and embalmers, real estate, nursing, physicians and veterinarians.

Regulation of those jobs is understandable.

But we wonder whether other professions – such as hair braiders, nail technicians, canine handlers and cosmetologists – need such strict regulation.

Be that as it may, we wish good luck to those who will benefit from the loosening of the state’s licensing apparatus.

Protected oceans benefit everyone Most people will never glimpse the vast underwater mountains and canyons off Cape Cod that President Barack Obama designated as a national monument Thursday. The same goes for the hundreds of thousands of submerged square miles the U.K., Ecuador, Costa Rica and other countries have just protected, and for the half-million square miles near Hawaii that Obama recently set aside.

But everyone benefits when underwater tracts are put off limits to commercial fishing and mining, because doing so is one of the best ways to help marine life flourish. It’s not just us humans: The seas are home to 80 percent of all species on the planet, and that’s not counting all the other creatures, including 3 billion people, that directly rely on the ocean for their food.

Ensuring these ecosystems stay healthy is getting harder, as the oceans absorb excess carbon dioxide and overfishing escalates, aided by advances in deep-water fishing technology.

Carbon dioxide turns the water more acidic, threatening the survival of shellfish. Hundreds of marine species are endangered, and populations of large predatory fish are dropping.

To slow and eventually reverse the destruction, governments have taken to forming preserves. With the actions announced this week

at a conference in Washington, protected areas now encompass about 3.5 percent of the ocean, up from less than 1 percent in 2000. And studies suggest the reserves make a difference. No matter how large or small, or whether they are in tropical or temperate waters, reserves allow marine life to grow larger, denser and more diverse. And nearby fisheries rebound. Plans are in place to expand reserves much further. A 1992 treaty obliges governments to protect 10 percent of coastal and marine areas by 2020. And earlier this month, 129 governments pledged to work toward protecting 30 percent of the ocean by 2030.

“Protected” does not always mean fishing is entirely banned. Increasingly, governments – especially local governments – are encouraging sustainable fishing. Fishing rights or “catch shares” are granted in return for cooperation in limiting catches, an approach that has helped restore fisheries on five continents.

Illegal and unregulated fishing continues, unfortunately, often in waters far beyond national boundaries. More needs to be done to tighten port security to ensure that imported fish are legally caught, and to trace seafood well enough that consumers can know for sure what fish they’re buying.

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.

Roskam leads charge on affordable tuition

To the Editor: I find it difficult to understand how college tuition costs continue to rise while university endowments for a growing number of schools are far above the billion-dollar mark. I was happy to find out that Congressman Peter Roskam is leading the charge in Congress investigating why some private institutions are using their unique tax privileges to help fund large administrator salaries or extravagant campus building projects instead of using the money to lower students’ tuition.

Roskam also co-authored a bipartisan bill the “Truth-In-Tuition Act” that requires schools to provide a fouryear financial model for students and parents to see the expected tuition increase so they can plan ahead. Seeing our congressman actually working to understand and try to change the cost of tuition is refreshing, and there should be no partisan pull to this. We all should

want to see student cost decrease rather than both a university’s endowment and tuition rise. After all, isn’t a university’s primary mission to educate?

Vote yes for the new library

To the Editor: I attended all of the Crystal Lake Public Library FOCUS meetings that sought input on the future of the library. Our facility suffers from aging and deteriorating systems. Floor to ceiling height does not allow current technology or modern lighting. Part of the building sits on a former landfill and will not support shelves of books. Program and meeting space is very limited in spite of sky-high book shelving. We need computers, study space, storytime rooms, a firstfloor entry and book drop. After studying the various options, citizens by a vast majority recommended a new building.

The library is more than an exchange

ted presidential contests because there is too small a sample of multicandidate races.) Their findings were striking. Candidates in two-sided races were twice as likely as those with multiple opponents to engage in negative advertising.

They found the effect to be robust whether or not an incumbent was in the race, and without regard to whether the opposing party was running a single strong candidate or a contested primary of its own. It is a well-known finding of political science that close races generate more negative ads, but even taking this factor into account, the authors found essentially the same result.

Further, the authors tell us, not only are negative advertisements more common in duopolies – so are responsive attack ads from the opponent. The authors found in two-candidate races, the chance the target of an attack ad will respond is just over 50 percent. In races with three candidates, however, the response rate drops to just 21 percent.

Why does the likelihood of negative ads depend on the number of candidates? The authors posit it’s due to a spillover effect: In a two-person race, A’s negative ad in theory harms only B. In a three-person race, however, A’s attack on B might help C. Suppose that A’s ad scares

voters away from supporting B. In a duopoly, either A gets those voters or they stay home. In a three-candidate race, however, there is another option: The former B voters can now support C. Thus A’s attack ad can benefit C. How does all this relate to this year’s presidential contest? Let’s suppose the research by Gandhi, Iorio and Urban holds up on a national level – in other words, what’s true of a three-viable-candidate gubernatorial primary also will be true of a three-viable-candidate presidential election. In that case, the more people who vote for a third-party candidate, the greater the chances, in the next cycle if not this one, that the other candidates will cut down on the negative ads. All that is required is for the major parties to believe a third-party candidate has a serious chance to win – in other words, a three-party system.

For those who think the stakes are too high, maybe this is the wrong election for offering such advice. But for those who want to cleanse the airways of negative ads, supporting third parties might well turn out to be the way to do it.

race for state’s attorney against another Republican. After the election, the Democratic Caucus put in its first-choice candidate, who had to drop out due to personal reasons. So then the Democratic Caucus put in its second choice, Ray Flavin. Kenneally has the knowledge and experience it takes for the job of state’s attorney. In my opinion, why wouldn’t you want the winner, our first choice?

Vote Nov. 8 for Patrick Kenneally for state’s attorney.

So you don’t like either candidate in this year’s presidential contest, but you’re afraid if you support a third party you’ll be wasting your vote? Relax. You can tell yourself if you cast a ballot for the Libertarians or the Greens, you will help create a public good: a reduction in negative advertising.

Seriously.

Don’t worry, those of you who believe this is the most important election of our lifetimes. I’m not going to argue that voters should turn away from the major parties. I only want to note that if lots of people do, we eventually might find ourselves with three rather than two serious and viable political parties, an outcome that might have a salutary effect on the atmosphere in which we conduct our campaigns.

It’s likely hundreds of millions of dollars will be spent this year on negative advertising. As of the end of August, the Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, had outspent the Republican, Donald Trump, on television ads by $75 million to $7.7 million, a ratio of nearly 10-1. The difference among independent groups is smaller but still enormous: $47 million for Clinton versus

$15 million for Trump. As Election Day approaches, Trump surely will do his best to strike back. And both sides’ ads will turn increasingly negative. This can’t be the best way to run an election.

True, lots of voters are willing to stomach attack ads when their candidate needs a boost, but I doubt any large subset of voters actually likes them. Although there’s debate in the literature on whether negative advertising increases popular cynicism toward politics, I don’t suppose anybody thinks filling the airwaves with charges and countercharges makes our elections better. But we can’t figure out how to get rid of attack ads unless we know why they’re so ubiquitous to begin with.

There is a surfeit of literature attesting to both the amount of negative advertising in U.S. political campaigns and its effect. But little work has been done on the problem of just why negative ads are so common here. A recent article by the economists Amit Gandhi, Daniela Iorio and Carly Urban fills that gap by suggesting a surprising answer: the two-party system.

The authors gathered data on nearly 700,000 political ads run in 2002, 2004 and 2008 during primaries for governorships and seats in the U.S. House and Senate. (They omit-

NEW YORK – Autumn is an anxious time for many small and medium-sized business owners as they wait to learn whether their health insurance costs will go up for 2017 – and if so, by how much?

“There’s always a lump in your throat because you don’t know what you’re going to get,” says Darren Ambler, a managing director at Insight Performance, a Dedham, Massachusetts-based human resources provider.

Whether a business sees a minuscule rise, a double-digit percentage increase or even a decline depends on factors including the state where the company is located and how much its insurance carrier paid in claims over the past year.

If the average age of a company’s employees rose or fell significantly – quite possible in a business with 10 or fewer employees – that could also affect the outcome.

Most of the increase in insurers’ costs is a result of rising prescription drug prices, Ambler says.

While companies with 50 or more workers are required to offer affordable insurance to them and their dependents, many smaller businesses also do so because they believe it’s right or they want to attract and retain good employees.

When their carriers hike the premiums, companies have to decide whether to absorb the costs, scale back their coverage or find other alternatives.

Several medium-sized clients of The Megro Benefits Co., a consulting company, are facing 38 percent increases in their 2017 premium costs. Surges like that have owners thinking about what’s called self-funding, says Cheryl Kiley, an adviser at Conshohocken, Pennsylvania-based Megro.

Rocky Finseth, president at Carrara Nevada, works in his office in Las Vegas. The fall is an anxious time for many small and medium-sized business owners as they wait to learn whether their health insurance costs will go up for 2017. Some, like Finseth, end up paying less. or part of employees’ medical costs and hires an insurance company to administer its health plan. Companies typically purchase special policies to reimburse them in the event of employees’ or dependents’ catastrophic illnesses. Insurance companies charge less to administer self-funded plans because they don’t have any risk, and employers also save because self-funded plans aren’t subject to a 6.5 percent federal tax on premiums.

Although companies may be forced to find alternatives, Megro isn’t seeing clients dropping insurance, president Bob Viola says.

“People won’t come to work for them unless they have health insurance,” he says.

RizePoint, which makes software for the food, lodging and retail industries and has about 75 employees, is paying 16 percent more for premiums on a policy

that renewed Sept. 1. It’s already considering self-funding for next year.

“It’s a little bit risky,” says Peter Johnson, a vice president at the Salt Lake City-based company. “But I don’t want to see another 16 percent increase – it’s nowhere near sustainable.”

Johnson had budgeted for a rise of 12 percent. When RizePoint’s carrier said premiums were going up more than that, Johnson searched unsuccessfully for a cheaper policy.

Rocky Finseth had the opposite experience. His premiums fell 11 percent although the policy was virtually unchanged from a year ago.

“I was surprised not only about the drop, but how large of a drop,” says Finseth, owner of Carrara Nevada, a Las Vegas-based company that does lobbying on state and local issues in Nevada. His policy, which covers seven staffers, re-

news Oct. 1.

Finseth didn’t question why his premiums dropped. He decided to use the savings to add vision coverage for his employees.

Some companies find that their policies have been discontinued.

“The plan we had was mysteriously canceled, and we were slotted into what we were told was the same plan, but when you looked at it, it was a worse plan,” says Joseph Nagle, marketing director at EverCharge, a maker of electric vehicle charging stations. Among other things, the new plan had a higher deductible – $6,000 versus $5,000.

EverCharge, based in Emeryville, California, began researching other carriers and plans, chose three and asked its seven employees which they preferred.

The company, which previously paid for all its staffers’ insurance, gave them an option of continuing to have fully funded coverage, paying about $10 per month for better coverage, or $120 for another.

They chose the middle option, and EverCharge was able to keep its health care costs unchanged, Nagle says.

Jason Anderson, owner of Datagame, a Kansas City, Missouri-based maker of software for online market research, hasn’t received his renewal package yet.

Anderson pays 100 percent of his three staffers’ premiums, and 50 percent of their dependents’ premiums.

He had a 5 percent increase for his 2016 premiums, an amount he doesn’t see as significant. He says he can handle a 10 percent increase, but if he’s facing a 20 percent hike, he might have to cut back on coverage for dependents.

“I keep waiting for the shoe to drop,” says Anderson, who acknowledges that he’d be angry at an increase in the 20 percent range. “I don’t see 10, 20, 30 percent improvements in what I am able to charge my clients,” he says.

VIEWS Jim Haisler dropped from a high of 69.2 percent to a current rate of 62.9 percent and cites the positive results of that. My concern is that readers of that article may misinterpret the meaning to suggest that people shouldn’t desire to be homeowners.

One of the arguments in the article noted that because the economy is doing better now as a whole, today’s homeowners – a smaller number – have more equity than the larger group had during the market’s peak.

This, he notes, makes the economy more able to fend off another downturn. I won’t argue that notion, but what bothers me is that there is no mention about the entire group of people who were homeowners and are no longer homeowners. Those people suffered badly and, if they could have held onto their homes, would have regained their equity. I submit that it would be better for the economy if a larger group of people each had a little money versus a smaller group having a lot.

It is not my intention to go pointby-point through to dispute the article, but let me share my top 10 reasons why homeownership is good and let you decide if you think we should have more of it or less for yourself.

(Copyright belongs to the national Association of REALTORS®)

To America:

• Homeowners pay 80-90 percent of federal income taxes, contributing to federal programs that benefits all Americans.

• On average, each home purchased contributes more than $60,000 into the economy for furniture, home improvements, professional fees and related items.

• Housing accounts for more than 15 percent of the national Gross Domestic Product, a key drive of our national economy.

To communities:

• People who own homes vote more, volunteer more and contribute more to their neighborhoods.

• Homeowners do not move as frequently as renters, providing more neighborhood stability. In turn, this stability helps reduce crime and supports neighborhood upkeep.

• Children of homeowners do better in school, stay in school longer and are more likely to participate in organized activities and spend less time in front of the television.

To people:

• Homeowners are happier and healthier and enjoy a greater feeling of control over their lives.

• Owning a home is one of the best ways to build long-term wealth. Historically, a homeowner’s net worth has ranged from 31 to 46 times that of a renter.

• Most homeowners enjoy stable

housing costs – a fixed rate mortgage payment might not change for 15 to 30 years while rent typically increases 3 percent a year.

• Homeowners typically can deduct mortgage interest and property taxes on their federal individual income tax return.

Recently, the chief economist of the National Association of REALTORS® wrote: “Over the long-haul, homeownership tends to provide wealth accumulation for owners. A typical homeowner’s net worth was $195,400 in 2013 compared to a renter’s net worth of $5,400, according to the Federal Reserve’s Survey of Consumer Finances. Since 2013, home prices have risen by 17 percent too, giving home owners more wealth.”

It would seem to me that if the homeownership rate were higher, that would mean that more people would have shared in the wealth. I can’t imagine how that couldn’t be good for America.

Anyway, I’ve made my point and hope we all realize that homeownership is not only good for America but a very desirable goal for most.

Pandora revamps its $5 a month radio service The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – Pandora said it has revamped its $5 a month Internet radio service, giving listeners the ability to skip and replay more songs.

The update after Pandora signed music licensing deals with major and independent labels. It also said it planned to offer a new $10 monthly on-demand streaming service by the end of the year that would better compete with rivals Spotify and Apple Music.

The new radio service is being called Pandora Plus and will replace Pandora One, which has 4 million subscribers. Those subscribers will be switched over to Pandora Plus and the service will continue to be ad-free.

Pandora said the free version, which plays ads, will also be updated.

Listeners will be able to skip or replay more songs if they click to play a video

the same period a year before.

The new versions of the radio service will be launched Thursday in the U.S. and roll out on its apps in the coming months, the company said. Listeners in Australia and New Zealand will see the changes next year, it said.

Pandora is different than Spotify and Apple Music, because Pandora users currently can’t choose which songs they want to listen to. Instead, listeners choose artists or songs they like and Pandora puts together a playlist. Listeners are limited by how many times they can skip or replay a song.

But Pandora plans to change that with its on-demand option, which it plans to release before the end of the year.

• Sunday, September 18, 2016 *

I recently read an article citing reasons why less homeownership is good and it has bothered me ever since.

I wondered if this was just my bias toward real estate or if there was a deeper concern. It got me thinking so I went back as far as my little brain could get me in American history, even before our Founding Fathers, which I’ll get back to.

Let’s stop at 1620, when three small boats landed at Plymouth Rock. Sure, they were escaping many things including religious persecution, but one of their founding principles was the ownership of land. Moving forward 150 years to the Declaration of Independence, it is believed that the original draft had “life, liberty and property” written, which was scripted from George Mason’s passage in the Virginia Declaration of Rights of June 1776.

I would admit that “property” likely meant a lot more than just real estate. I would also argue that it also certainly included the ownership of real estate.

Even so, that was a long time ago and times certainly have changed.

Then again, in modern day, I’ve never heard anyone say they aspire to rent property from someone else. That being said, this wasn’t exactly the point of the article, but I still think it is relevant.

What is more important is that the title of the article that I read seems to suggest that lower homeownership rates are good. The author quoted that the homeownership rate has

Owing on commercial properties not wise Dear Dave : My husband and I own three commercial buildings in Boise, Idaho, that are leased out long-term. We owe about $500,000 on one and $400,000 on each of the others, and they earn $190,000. The only other debt we have is a small amount left on our mortgage. I know you don’t like debt, but is it OK to owe on commercial properties that are making good money?

– Dawn Dear Dawn : I own several com-

mercial buildings, and I don’t owe a dime on any of them. So, I can’t tell you that I think it’s OK to have debt on commercial buildings. I believe the best plan for building wealth is to become debt-free.

Now, from the situation you’ve described, that doesn’t necessarily mean you guys should be in panic mode and start selling everything in sight. But I do think that you should systematically work your way out from under these debts

DAVE SAYS Dave Ramsey over the next few years.

If I were in your shoes, I’d go ahead and get the house paid off first. Then, I’d take a look at these commercial properties, and begin working the debt snowball on them.

Start throwing as much money as you can at the smallest debt, while making minimum payments on the other two. When you get it paid off, roll that amount over – along with every dime you can dig up – and attack the second largest one. Follow these steps until you pay off all of your commercial properties.

It might take up to 10 years in your case, because we’re talking about at least $1.3 million in debt.

If you have a bunch of equity in

one you don’t particularly like, you might consider selling it and throwing the cash at the remaining two. But whatever the timeline, I’d develop a hardcore game plan to get rid of this debt.

Wouldn’t it be cool to have all that paid for? Talk about cash flow!

Dear Dave : My wife and I are debtfree except for a car and our house.

The car is financed through her mom, and her dad agreed to send us half of the payment each month. We owe $7,700 on the car, and we have enough cash right now to pay off the car in full with plenty left over.

Should we do this, even though her dad is making $100 of the payment each month? – Dustin Dear Dustin : If her father had agreed to send you guys $100 each month, ask him to continue doing that for the duration of the agreement.

Then, you guys pay off the car now with your cash. There’s noth-

ing dishonest about this, as long as you explain the plan to her parents and they’re agreeable.

The reason for this approach is two-fold: it gets the debt paid off, and then you can get the car put in your name.

Plus, a situation like this represents drama just looking for a place to happen, if it hasn’t already.

Family relationships take on a weird vibe when money has been loaned and borrowed.

If they’re not agreeable to the idea, that’s OK. All you can do is ask. But one way or another, I’d be out of this situation before the sun goes down!

Group of friends splinters following sleepover snub Dear Abby: My 11-year-old daughter recently asked to have a sleepover with some of her best friends. She’s part of a “club” with five other girls.

Four of them are her best friends, so she invited them. However, my daughter is not close with the fifth girl, “Debbie.” They don’t hang out at school and barely hang out during their club activities.

When Debbie’s mother found out my daughter had invited the others, she accused me of excluding Debbie intentionally. I received a rude text from her telling me they were quitting the club.

In the past, we have gone above and beyond to keep her daughter included in the club activities, but when it comes to my daughter wanting to hang out with her friends outside of that, I feel she should be able

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips to invite whoever she wants. Should I have made my daughter invite Debbie to her sleepover even though they aren’t really friends? – “Mean Mom” Dear “Mean Mom”: Obviously, Debbie is close enough with some of the other girls they told her about the sleepover. Your daughter may not like Debbie as much as she likes the other “club” members – which seems more like a clique to me – but I don’t think that’s a reason to exclude or attempt to isolate her. Because all of the other girls were asked, Debbie should not have been snubbed. For a moment, put yourself in her shoes.

Dear Abby: I have many friends with grandchildren, two of whom love to show me photos of them. I don’t mind looking at a few, but recently, during a two-hour lunch, one friend insisted on showing me pictures and videos the entire time. I swear I’m not exaggerating. Another friend has four five-minute videos I’m supposed to watch.

I show pictures of my grandchildren only occasionally. Would it be rude if, the next time this happens, I say something like, “I’d love to see a couple, but remember – I have eight grandchildren and more than 700 photos and videos on MY phone”? – Bleary-Eyed in California Dear Bleary-Eyed: I don’t think it

would be rude. It might be an effective reminder that granny-bragging is a two-way street.

Dear Abby: My niece is soliciting donations for her boyfriend’s young daughter’s upcoming operation. I’m hesitant because they both smoke, and with the price of cigarettes these days, it’s taking a chunk out of his paycheck – not to mention the health risks. I realize the child isn’t to blame. Should we go ahead and donate, knowing some it is being used to finance their tobacco habit? – No

Fan of Smoking Dear No Fan Of Smoking: This is

not a referendum on smoking; it’s a request for help to pay for needed surgery for a child. Yes, you should give them a donation if you have it to spare.

What to watch NFL: Green Bay at Minnesota, 7:20 p.m., NBC After a decade-plus of lobbying and 2½ years of construction, the Minnesota Vikings have arrived at the grand opening of their new stadium, with the Green Bay Packers serving as the fitting visitors on the national stage of a Sunday night game.

WOODSTOCK – As Crystal Lake coop freshman Jamie Gindorf emerged from swimming the first leg of the 400yard freestyle relay Saturday at the Woodstock North Invite, she shook her head and mouthed to her teammates that she had been slow.

Her teammate Valerie Tarazi, preparing to swim the anchor leg, told her, “I got you.”

Despite being in fourth after the first leg, strong swims from Tessa Shorten and Rhiannon Wozny put Crystal Lake in good position for the final 100 meters.

Tarazi entered the water at almost the exact time as Jacobs/Hampshire co-op’s Izzy Bavaro, a previous state qualifier. Tarazi, a defending state champion, delivered the win.

The team of Gindorf, Shorten, Wozny and Tarazi swam a 3:47.36 to beat the Jacobs/Hampshire team of Alexa

The closest finish of the day came in the senior 100 freestyle, when Crystal Lake co-op’s Tessa Shorten held off Cary-Grove’s Ashlynn Baker by only 0.02 seconds.

Agoranos, Makaylin Monasterio, Megan Herrera and Bavaro, which finished in 3:50.37.

“I really enjoy getting up and racing, especially when it’s close, but my team set me up really nicely,” Tarazi said. “All we had to do was be within a second or three seconds of the 50 and I knew I could pull it out for the team, so I always look forward to that.”

The win in the 400 free relay capped a successful day for the Crystal Lake co-op at the Woodstock Invite hosted by Woodstock North. Crystal Lake took first place overall, winning 11 of 20 events.

Four Crystal Lake swimmers – Tarazi, Gindorf, Wozny and Shorten – each won a pair of individual events.

Tarazi won the 200 freestyle and 100 butterfly; Gindorf won the freshman 50 freestyle and freshman 100 freestyle; Wozny won the 200 individual medley and 500 freestyle; and Shorten won the senior 100 freestyle and the senior 50 freestyle.

In addition to the 400 freestyle relay, the same Crystal Lake team won the 200 freestyle relay, and Crystal Lake’s team of Caitlin Pieroni, Lauren Niemann, Jillian Shorten and Lauren Bednaroski won the frosh/soph 200 freestyle relay.

“I think, first of all, meets are fun.

They haven’t been able to get that experience because this is only our second meet,” Crystal Lake co-op coach Stephanie Wozny said. “They’ve been able to see that the hard work they’ve been putting in is rewarding them in the meets.

And it gave them something to go on, there’s room to improve on everything now and they see that, so that’s good.”

They’ve been practicing extremely hard and they’re capable of more, so that last half of the meet they did extremely well, exactly where I wanted them to be, and we had a lot of best times.”

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. – Penn State paid tribute Saturday to Joe Paterno on the 50th anniversary of his first game, despite criticism that the ceremonies are insensitive to victims in the university’s sex abuse scandal.

Early in the second quarter in the matchup with in-state rival Temple, Beaver Stadium announcer Dean DeVore directed an announced 100,420 fans’ attention to two high-definition video boards for a two-minute video featuring highlights of Paterno’s career.

Another video played in the third quarter, this one dedicated to Paterno and his widow, Sue, and it featured their $4 million donation put toward expanding the library and local hospital.

As soon as Paterno’s familiar image appeared, fans erupted and kept cheering as DeVore read from a statement highlighting Paterno’s commitment to student-athletes and academics.

“Before he became head coach in 1966, Joe Paterno spoke about recruiting more football players who were exceptional students,” DeVore said. “He was determined to bring to Penn State students who could earn a world-class education and graduate and play football at the highest level.”

Cubs starter Jake Arrieta walks back to the dugout in the sixth inning against the Brewers on Saturday at Wrigley Field.

Although not as superb as his award-winning turn in 2015, Arrieta has put together a solid 2016 season on the whole. He picked up where he left off to start, leading the Cubs to wins in his first 10 outings. He’s proven to be mortal since.

Arrieta went 0-3 in July despite a pair of strong seven-inning outings.

He went 4-0 in August despite giving up five runs or more in two starts. He hasn’t made it past the sixth inning in

“I’m not concerned with it,” said Arrieta, who probably won’t be able to get to 20 wins with a 17-7 record. “I just need to find that comfort zone with the sinker in the strike zone on the first pitch. And then after that it opens up a lot of doors.

ROYALS 3, WHITE SOX 2

Smith picks up 1st hit in defeat The ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Kevan Smith is on the board, but the White Sox came away empty in most of their scoring opportunities Saturday night.

Smith singled to lead off the fifth for his first major league hit in his 10th atbat, but the Sox lost, 3-2, to the Kansas City Royals, who snapped a five-game losing streak.

“A little weight lifted off the shoulders, that’s for sure,” Smith said. “Got into a good count, 3-0, and then I was sitting heater and he gave it to me. So, I just try to stay through the middle and it worked out like I planned, so, it’s certainly a good feeling.”

Smith, who was starting his third game and his second behind the plate

since a Sept. 1 call-up, said he received “a bunch of messages” on his phone, congratulating him.

“It’s almost like you’re on a cloud,” Smith said when his hit cleared the infield. “I mean, it’s kind of surreal because you know there was no chance on that ball, not like that ball in Minnesota where (Brian) Dozier just laid out for it and made that crazy Kevan Smith play. But, this time it was a for sure thing, so it was a nice easy jog to first.”

The Sox went 2 for 9 with runners in scoring position and stranded eight runners.

“We had opportunities,” Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “We hit the

ball pretty good, got some guys on base, just couldn’t cash them in.”

Melky Cabrera drove in a run in the first with a one-out single, but the White Sox stranded two runners.

Avisail Garcia’s double, which struck the third base bag, scored Jose Abreu in the eighth for the final Sox run. The Sox had Cabrera at third and Garcia at second, but Joakim Soria retired pinch-hitter J.B. Shuck on a ground ball to end the inning.

Jason Vargas, who was making his first start in 423 days after having Tommy John surgery on August 5, 2015, retired eight of the last nine Sox batters he faced.

Vargas was pulled after 52 pitches and three innings. Dillon Gee (7-8) replaced Vargas and held the Sox to one run and five hits over 4 1/3 innings.

CHICAGO – The Cubs clinched the National League Central title Thursday, broke out the bubbly Friday and spent the early part of Saturday blow-drying the wet clubhouse floors.

With two weeks to go in the regular season, the Cubs will try to maintain the best record in baseball, assemble a postseason roster and figure out what is happening with Jake Arrieta’s command.

The reigning Cy Young winner walked four batters Saturday in an 11-3 loss to the Brewers at Wrigley Field.

The walks on their own weren’t what doomed the Cubs, but Arrieta’s spotty command cost him in a three-run sixth inning capped by Ryan Braun’s go-ahead home run.

Arrieta has walked 21 batters in his past six starts compared to the 10 he walked in the six previous.

Maddon admitted after the game there’s concern about it.

“Yes, of course there is,” Maddon said. “We have to figure out exactly what’s going wrong. Yes, I cannot deny that, and I’m sure he’ll say the same thing.”

ab 2 4 5 4 5 3 4 4 2 0 1 0 0 0 0 34

“We’re working on it. I just need to be better early in the counts to prevent guys from taking pitches and getting into 2-1, 3-1 counts.”

The right-hander kept the Brewers off the scoreboard through the first three innings and gave up only an unearned run in the fourth.

He walked leadoff man Jonathan Villar in the sixth before a double to Scooter Gennett. That set up the tworun blast from Braun on a full count. It was the first of two Braun homers and gave Milwaukee a 4-3 lead.

“Just poor execution,” Arrieta said.

The bullpen didn’t do much better.

C.J. Edwards and Spencer Patton combined to give up three homers and seven earned runs in two innings.

The loss was the Cubs’ worst since a 14-3 defeat to the Mets on July 3. They gave up four homers at Wrigley for the first time since 2012.

“We missed location on several pitches, and give them credit they did not miss the baseball,” Maddon said.

“That’s what I saw.”

The good news, Maddon said, is Arrieta’s command issues should be fixable in his remaining starts before the postseason.

“I really believe that,” he said. “We have some ideas. We’ll definitely go over it with him. And in spite of that, look at what he’s done to this point.

That’s the biggest thing. If we can get him to get better command of his fastball the next two starts, everything else will play off of that.”

North Dakota St. 23, No. 13 Iowa 21 IOWA CITY, Iowa – Cam Pedersen kicked a 37-yard field as time expired and North Dakota State beat Iowa (2-1) for its sixth straight victory over an FBS opponent.

The Bison went for a two-point conversion down 21-20 with 3:41 left, but couldn’t punch it in. North Dakota State’s defense then held, and quarterback Easton Stick’s 29-yard run put the Bison (3-0) in position for the winning field goal.

No. 9 Wisconsin 23, Geogia St. 17 MADISON, Wis. – Backup quarterback Alex Hornibrook led Wisconsin on three scoring drives in the second half, helping the sluggish Badgers beat Georgia State.

Hornibrook took over for Bart Houston late in the third quarter with Wisconsin (3-0) stuck in an offensive malaise. The freshman finished 8 of 12 for 122 yards, including a 1-yard touchdown pass to Kyle Penniston with 7:25 left to give the Badgers the lead for good, 20-17.

Broncos bag 2nd Big Ten win

Feel-good period over for Smith, 1-2 Fighting Illini

By DAVID MERCER The Associated Press

CHAMPAIGN – Jamauri Bogan ran for 189 yards and two touchdowns to lead Western Michigan to its second win over a Big Ten team this season, 34-10 over Illinois.

The 5-foot-7, 187-pound Bogan carried the ball 24 times, battering an Illini defensive line that is considered the strength of the team.

The Broncos (3-0) came into the game as three-point favorites only two weeks after beating Northwestern, 2221. Saturday’s game was never that close.

Western Michigan opened up a 21-0 lead early in the second quarter and finished the afternoon with 437 yards of offense, 287 of it on the ground.

While Western Michigan shoved Illinois (1-2) down the field, the Illini barely could sustain a drive. Their only touchdown came on a trick play, a reverse flea flicker that ended with quarterback Wes Lunt hitting tight end Ainslee Johnson deep down the right sideline for a touchdown that cut the Western Michigan lead to 21-7 midway through the second quarter.

but lead back Ke’Shawn Vaughn had only 22 yards on eight carries. And although Lunt had 312 yards passing, he lacks a true go-to receiver who can grab balls over the middle or consistently threaten other teams deep.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: NORTHWESTERN 24, DUKE 13

Wildcats earn 1st win of the season

Thorson passes for 320 yards, 3 TDs for Northwestern

By PATRICK ROSE

The Associated Press EVANSTON – Clayton Thorson threw for 320 yards and three touchdowns, Justin Jackson rushed for 94 yards and Northwestern defeated Duke, 24-13, Saturday night.

After being held to seven points by Illinois State last week, Northwestern (1-2) scored on the game’s opening drive. Thorson connected with Garrett Dickerson for a 26-yard touchdown reception, capping a 10-play, 75-

yard drive.

Northwestern capitalized on Blue Devils’ punter Austin Parker’s gaffe in the third quarter to take a 14-7 lead.

Duke (1-2) was lined up to punt, Parker dropped the snapped and wasn’t able to get the punt away. Northwestern took over at the Duke 44. On the next play, Thorson found Solomon Vault wide open in the middle of the field for the go-ahead touchdown.

Thorson also connected with former walk-on Austin Carr on a 58-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter.

Duke quarterback Daniel Jones threw for 279 yards and one interception. Jela Duncan had 53 yards rushing and a touchdown.

Byron Fields picked off Thorson’s pass at the Blue Devils’ 1, which set up a 99-yard, 12-play Duke drive to tie the score at 7 with 3:03 left in the second

quarter. The scoring drive was highlighted by Shaun Wilson’s 39-yard catch from Jones.

Thorson was hurried or on his back for most of the game. Duke was throwing a number of blitz packages at the Northwestern offensive line, which it wasn’t able to pick up.

TAKEAWAY Northwestern: Despite Thorson get-

ting sacked five times, Northwestern showed some life on offense. The opening scoring drive featured Jackson, then Thorson was able to open it up in the air in the second half.

UP NEXT Northwestern: The Wildcats’ sea-

son-opening four-game home stand continues Saturday night against Nebraska, who beat Oregon.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL TOP 25 ROUNDUP

Spartans hang on against Irish

By TOM COYNE

The Associated Press SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Tyler O’Connor threw for two touchdowns, Gerald Holmes ran for two more – including a 73-yard score – and No. 12 Michigan State took advantage of mistakes by No. 18 Notre Dame and held on for a 36-28 victory Saturday night.

The Spartans (2-0) turned what had been a close game at halftime into a 29-point lead with three third-quarter touchdowns. But Notre Dame made it close as DeShone Kizer threw for two touchdowns and ran for another and the Irish (1-2) cut the lead to 36-28 with 6:02 left on a 12-yard touchdown pass to tight end Durham Smythe.

On Notre Dame’s next possession, Kizer was sacked for a 5-yard loss by Raequan Williams on third-and-2 and Notre Dame punted with 3:37 left in the game and the Spartans ran out the clock.

O’Connor, a fifth-year senior making his third career start, was 19 of 26 passing for 241 yards and one interception on a deflected pass. Kizer threw for a career-high 344 yards, completing 20 of 37 passes with one interception with heavy pressure

at times from the Spartans.

THE TAKEAWAY Michigan St.: M i c h i g a n

State’s offense showed there was no need for concern after an unimpressive opening-game victory over FCS Furman, beating Notre Dame to end a threegame losing streak to the Irish.

Notre Dame: Mistakes hurt the Irish from the start, with an opening kickoff return for a touchdown by C.J. Sanders being called back on a holding penalty by Jalen Elliott.

A bouncing punt hit Notre Dame’s Miles Boykins and was recovered by Michigan State long snapper Collin Caflisch at the Notre Dame 38 early, and Sanders fumbled at the end of 19-yard catch that Michigan State linebacker Jon Reschke recovered. Fans booed Notre Dame with 5 minutes left in the third quarter after a pair of runs for no gain.

UP NEXT Notre Dame: The Irish begin a

stretch of three straight games against Atlantic Coast Conference teams, which Notre Dame is a member in for most sports aside from football, when it plays Duke. Notre Dame is 3-1 all-time against the Blue Devils.

including a 37-yard touchdown strike to D.J. Chark. But the Tigers nearly squandered a comfortable lead, giving up two touchdowns 4:10 and 3:30 left, the second after the Bulldogs (1-2, 1-1) recovered an onside kick.

No. 23 Florida 32, North Texas 0 GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Florida quarterback Luke Del Rio injured his left knee against North Texas, a huge concern as the Gators prepare to play at No. 15 Tennessee next week.

The injury overshadowed a dominant performance by Florida’s defense, which allowed a school-record 53 yards on 50 plays. The previous mark was 59 yards allowed against Western Carolina in 2006.

Defensive lineman Joshua Wheeler hit Del Rio low at the end of incomplete pass late in the third quarter, drawing a personal-foul penalty. Trainers and coach Jim McElwain rushed to the field as Del Rio ripped off his helmet. Del Rio eventually got up and walked to the locker room without any assistance.

But that was hardly the end of it for Florida (3-0). McElwain, who seemingly believed Wheeler’s hit was dirty, started yelling at the North Texas (1-2) sideline and had to be restrained by officials and then players. Both teams responded by stepping onto the field and moving toward the hash marks.

No. 24 Arkansas 42, Texas St. 3 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Austin Allen threw for 241 yards and two TD in less than three quarters of action for Arkansas, The Razorbacks (3-0) were coming off a double-overtime win at TCU. The Razorbacks outgained the Bobcats (1-1) 350-26 in total yardage in the first half.

No. 25 Miami 45, Appalachian St. 10 BOONE, N.C. – Brad Kaaya threw for 368 yards and three scores, Mark Walton ran for 130 yards and two TDs and Miami (3-0) rolled past Appalachian State.

1-yard score, and Stanford beat Southern California.

The AP player of the year and Heisman Trophy runner-up had a routine 260 all-purpose yards. Michael Rector went 56 yards for a touchdown on a reverse with 3:26 left in the third quarter to make it 27-10.

Stanford (2-0, 1-0 Pac-12) has won seven of nine against the Trojans.

No. 8 Washington 41, Portland St. 3 SEATTLE – Jake Browning threw three touchdown passes in the first 16 minutes, and Washington closed out its uninspired nonconference schedule with a victory over Portland State.

Browning and the Huskies (3-0) led 14-0 after less than 3 minutes and coasted way past the lower division opponent.

No. 15 Tennessee 28, Ohio 19 KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Joshua Dobbs threw two 20-yard TD passes to Josh Malone and ran for a third score and Tennessee overcame injuries and a suspension to hold off Ohio.

Tennessee (3-0) played without four starters – three were injured and defensive back Malik Foreman was suspended for team rules violations.

No. 17 Texas A&M 29, Auburn 16 AUBURN, Ala. – Trevor Knight passed for 247 yards and Daniel LaCamera kicked five field goals to lead Texas A&M past Auburn.

Knight also ran for 42 yards and several first downs in his first Southeastern Conference game for the Aggies (3-0, 1-0).

Myles Garrett had two sacks and Texas A&M harassed quarterback Sean White enough to minimize big-play chances for Auburn (1-2, 0-1).

Freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts threw for 158 yards and ran for 146 more, but it was unlikely touchdowns from Jonathan Allen, Da’Ron Payne and Eddie Jackson that proved to be the biggest plays for the Crimson Tide (3-0, 1-0 Southeastern Conference).

Ole Miss (1-2, 0-1) looked as if it might be on its way to a third straight win over the Tide late in the second quarter.

Instead, it was the Rebels’ second collapse in three games.

No. 10 Louisville 63, No. 2 Florida St. 20 LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Lamar Jackson ran for four touchdowns and threw for another score and Louisville routed Florida State in what was billed as an Atlantic Coast Conferenceshowdown game.

Jackson ran for 146 yards and passed for 216 yards. The defense chipped in with nine sacks.

The Cardinals (3-0, 2-0) topped 60 points for the third straight game. The Seminoles (2-1, 0-1) suffered one of the worst losses in school history.

No. 5 Clemson 59, South Carolina St. 0 CLEMSON, S.C. – Deshaun Watson threw three early touchdown passes in Clemson’s rout in the game that both coaches decided to shorten.

The game was such a mismatch that the Tigers (3-0) scored two touchdowns in the first quarter with no time running off the clock. An NCAA rule allows for games to be shortened by time if the coaches agree.

10 COLLEGE FOOTBALL: SAN DIEGO ST. 42, NORTHERN ILLINOIS 28

0-3 NIU loses 6th straight

By JESSE SEVERSON

jseverson@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Whenever the Northern Illinois football team crept closer, San Diego State star running back Donnel Pumphrey made sure the Aztecs had plenty of cushion on the scoreboard.

Pumphrey had his second straight game with 200-plus rushing yards and came up with two critical second-half touchdowns, and the Aztecs held off the Huskies, 42-28, Saturday afternoon in NIU’s home opener at Huskie Stadium.

Pumphrey, who is the all-time leading rusher in San Diego State history after rushing for 281 yards against Cal last week, finished with 23 carries for 220 yards and three touchdowns.

He had scoring runs from 46, 33 and 79. After NIU dug itself out of a 28-0 hole early, the Huskies had cut it to a one-possession game twice, and Pumphrey responded with his 33- and 79yard touchdown runs.

“There were a couple of breakdowns,” NIU coach Rod Carey said.

“One was a missed tackle, and one we got out of our gap. He’s the type of player who can make you pay when you do that. Big plays, obviously. When you play a good offense and a good back like that and you have a breakdown, we have to correct that, but a guy like that can make you pay in a hurry for it, and he certainly did.”

NIU redshirt sophomore Ryan Graham, filling in as the starting quarterback after Drew Hare suffered an ankle and knee injury last week, went 18 for 36 with 221 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions.

He looked significantly stronger in the second half, after going 4 for 10 for 20 yards and an interception in the first two quarters.

“I wasn’t nervous, I just didn’t play well enough,” Graham said. “I was overthinking things and San Diego State did a great job.”

Receiver Kenny Golladay had six catches for 80 yards and a touchdown for the Huskies, and running back Jor-

dan Huff was NIU’s leading rusher, going 46 yards on 12 carries.

The Huskies had what likely was their best stretch of the season, coming from the middle of the second quarter through the third in which they scored 21 straight points. Golladay scored on a 12-yard run and caught a 49-yard touchdown pass from Graham, who later added a 14-yard connection to tight end Shane Wimann for a score.

The Huskies lost their final three games of 2015 – including the Mid-American Conference Championship to Bowling Green and a lopsided defeat to Boise State in the Poinsettia Bowl.

Along with the loss to the Aztecs on Saturday, the Huskies (0-3) lost 4034 in triple overtime to Wyoming and 48-17 at South Florida to start the 2016 season. It’s the first time the Huskies have lost six consecutive games since an eight-game slide that spanned the 1998-1999 seasons.

“Obviously, we’re very, very disappointed in the outcome of the football game,” Carey said. “With that being said, you give a ton of credit to SDSU. They’re a fantastic football team, and today they jumped on us early. I thought we fought back, had our opportunities there – but in the end, you give a good team a start like that and they executed a little bit better than us today.”

WORLD CUP OF HOCKEY

Team Europe stuns U.S. in opener

By STEPHEN WHYNO The Associated Press

TORONTO – When the United States filled out its roster for the World Cup of Hockey, it looked heavy on grit and physicality and light on skill and scoring.

That became reality in the Americans’ stunning 3-0 loss to unheralded Team Europe on Saturday in the World Cup opener. With offensive defenseman Dustin Byfuglien and 30-goal scorer Kyle Palmieri scratched, the U.S. struggled to generate quality scoring chances and finds itself in trouble one game Patrick Kane into the tournament.

“It was just tough to score,” winger Zach Parise said. “There are guys that have different roles and different jobs on the team. Guys that play with grit, play hard – but it was just tough to score for us tonight.”

Jaroslav Halak stopped all 35 shots he faced to earn the shutout for Team Europe, a mix of players from Slovakia, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Norway, Denmark, France and Slovenia. Marian Gaborik, Leon Draisaitl and Pierre-Edouard Bellemare scored on U.S. goaltender Jonathan Quick, who made 14 saves.

Despite the lopsided shot total and the Americans’ dominant puck possession, Europe was in control for most of the game because of major mistakes.

Defenseman Ryan McDonagh made an ill-advised pinch to set up a 2-on-1 rush that became Gaborik’s goal, and Hart Trophy winner Patrick Kane turned over the puck to give Europe a 2-on-0 rush that became Draisaitl’s.

“You saw on a couple of our mistakes – turnovers, pinching, giving them odd-man breaks – they were able to capitalize,” Kane said. “On that second goal, I’ll definitely take the fault on that one. That’s a play that I’ve made a million times in my career. Just kind of lost the puck and the next thing you know they go down 2 on 0. That’s unacceptable from me.”

It was an unacceptable performance for the U.S., which now has been shut out in three consecutive major international tournament games dating to the 2014 Sochi Olympics. Leaving skilled players such as Tyler Johnson and Kyle Okposo off the roster sparked plenty of second-guessing of the U.S. management team, and that won’t slow down after losing to Team Europe.

12 NASCAR SPRINT CUP SERIES CHASE FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP

Strap in: Chase usually produces temper tantrums

NASCAR’s playoffs get under way Sunday in Joliet

Jones wins; Sieg, Koch earn final Chase spots

By MIKE CRANSTON The Associated Press

By MIKE CRANSTON The Associated Press

JOLIET – Based on history, the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship will produce pushing and shoving, ruined cars and a whole lot of yelling and finger-pointing.

The third year of NASCAR’s elimination-style, 10-race dash for the series title begins Sunday with the 400-mile race at Chicagoland Speedway. Drivers, start your aggression.

“I just know for us, it’s kind of a one-way street,” Kevin Harvick, the 2014 champion, said of his approach.

“You do what you have to do for your team, whatever that may be, and worry about the consequences later.”

In last year’s Chase opener at the 1.5-mile oval, Harvick shoved Jimmie Johnson after a contentious race. It was similar to Matt Kenseth and Brad Keselowski brawling in 2014 at Charlotte, and Jeff Gordon and Keselowski exchanging blows at Texas.

Last year, there was bad blood between Joey Logano and Kenseth that ended with Logano’s car rammed into the wall at Martinsville.

“This is a mental game,” Logano said. “It is all about what is up in your head.”

There already have been clashes over this championship race. Ryan Newman’s faint Chase hopes were dashed when Tony Stewart intentionally wrecked him in last weekend’s final qualifying race at Richmond. Newman ripped Stewart, saying he was “bipolar” and “should be retired the way he drives.” The two were called to a meeting Friday with NASCAR executives.

“They’re trying to make sure they don’t have a scenario like what they had last year with Joey and Matt,” Stewart said.

That feud last year started at Kansas, where Logano wrecked Kenseth.

Then at Martinsville, with Kenseth out of the running to advance and nine laps down, he wrecked Logano to end his chances to move on.

Kenseth was suspended two races, but Logano’s season was over despite a

11 at Richmond International Raceway in Richmond, Va. Standing, from left, are Kyle Busch, Tony Stewart, Kurt Busch, Joey Logano, Carl Edwards, Denny Hamlin, Kevin Harvick and Matt Kenseth. Kneeling are, from left, Brad Keselowski, Chris Buescher, Martin Truex Jr., Chase Elliott, Kyle Larson, Jimmie Johnson, Austin Dillon and Jamie McMurray. dominating stretch when he won three straight Chase races.

Kyle Busch, the 2015 champ, has led the most laps this season and is the topseed in the 16-driver field. He also will start Sunday’s race from the pole after Friday’s qualifying was washed out.

There will be three rounds of eliminations before four drivers are left to contend for the title at the finale Nov. 20 at Homestead.

The format has led to high tension and unpredictability since its 2014 debut. Jimmie Johnson, a six-time series champion, has yet to be in contention going into the final race.

“It is shocking we haven’t made it past the second round,” he said.

Johnson, the No. 8 seed, is the highest-ranked Hendrick Motorsports driver with Joe Gibbs Racing and Toyota dominating the first 26 races. Practice times at Chicagoland seemed to show the gap is still there Busch is joined by JGR teammates Denny Hamlin, Carl Edwards and Matt Kenseth in the Chase. And Martin Truex Jr., whose team is aligned with Gibbs, is considered a contender.

Team Penske, led by No. 2 seed and 2012 champ Brad Keselowski, and Logano, are back in the Chase, too.

“No, we aren’t going to crash each other,” Logano said of his teammate.

“If that is the answer you are looking for, it isn’t what you are going to get.

We would race each other hard. I don’t think it will get dirty for no reason at all. I wouldn’t want to do that to anybody. I want to win the right way.”

Although NASCAR might wink at the arguments and rough racing, the sanctioning body has vowed to crack

down on cheating in the garage. Penalties for cars that fail inspection could cost a driver the title.

But many drivers are too focused on their own work.

“I got the email and I hit ‘delete’ because it didn’t pertain to anything with driving the car,” Harvick said. “Really just trying to focus on what I need to do. I think everybody else is really focused on their jobs, as well.”

Here are some other things to watch at Chicagoland: Stewart’s Finale: Retiring at the end of the season, Stewart will try to depart with his fourth title and first since 2011.

“You’re not going to win the championship in this first segment, but you can sure take yourself out of an opportunity to win it,” he said.

Johnson: He begins his quest for a record-tying seventh title at a track where he never has won and in a format he’s yet to master. “I guess it’s 10 years since my first championship, so there’s only four years I’ve missed,” he said. “I don’t think that’s too bad of a stat.”

Youngins: The Chase includes two rookies for the first time. Chris Buescher is seeded 13th and Chase Elliott 14th.

Three fingers: Others making Chase debuts include Kyle Larson, who had the fastest car in Saturday’s practice, and Austin Dillon, who has the iconic No. 3 Chevrolet in the playoffs for the first time.

Baby alert: Regan Smith, who is not in the Chase, returned to North Carolina with his wife in labor. Ty Dillon will replace him in the No 7 if he doesn’t get back in time.

JOLIET – Erik Jones won the Truck Series title last year and is headed to Sprint Cup next year.

He put himself in position Saturday to also capture the NASCAR Xfinity Series championship and solidify his status as a rising star.

Jones passed Elliott Sadler with nine laps to go and held off Kyle Larson to win the NASCAR Xfinity race at Chicagoland Speedway, allowing Ryan Sieg and Blake Koch to claim the final two spots in the Chase for the championship.

“I just had to go chase Elliott down.

It was just a matter of time before we got around him,” Jones said. “What an awesome day.”

The 20-year-old Jones’ series-high fourth win of the season and his second straight at Chicagoland left him as the top seed for the seven-race Chase.

“This is great momentum for us,” Jones said. “I’m just really excited.”

Sprint Cup champion Kyle Busch dominated most of the race on the 1.5-mile oval, leading 154 of the first 181 laps until he cut a tire and spun out. Clint Bowyer had the lead on the restart with 14 laps left before Sadler passed him.

But a charging Jones surged by Sadler and withstood a late challenge before Larson scraped the wall on the 200th and final lap.

“On the last lap, I tried to get to the throttle early and try to get a run on him on exit,” Larson said. “I knew I would be flirting with the edge there, and I just got over it and got into the wall and ended our shot.”

Sadler was third, followed by Daniel Suarez and Illinois native Justin Allgaier. Busch finished 13th.

Jones, No. 2-seed Sadler and thirdseed Suarez are the only full-time drivers to win an Xfinity race this season.

Sadler had a substantial points lead that is wiped out under the new Chase format.

Sieg finished 12th and Koch 15th to earn the final spots in the 12-driver Chase. Seven other drivers in contention were eliminated.

The rest of the Chase field includes Allgaier, Ty Dillon, Brennan Poole, Brandan Gaughn, Ryan Reed, Brandon Jones and Darrell Wallace Jr.

Words of wisdom on freshman move-in Although we had his entire senior year to prepare, we found ourselves shopping for our college-bound son late the night before move-in. My wife proceeded to fill the Bed, Bath and Beyond cart to over capacity.

“Is he ever coming back?” I asked.

She ignored me and turned down the towel aisle. I caught up with her, looking in the cart for unnecessaries.

“What’s this?” I asked, picking up something called a duvet.

“Do you want to do the shopping?” she asked.

Women always know how to end an argument by threatening to give men jobs they 1) don’t want or 2) don’t know how to do.

She loaded the cart with impunity: a mattress pad, a mattress topper, a mattress protector (how many layers between the mattress and my son were required?) a water filtration pitcher (was he going to school in the Amazon?); a black Mongolian fur club chair (okay, I admit, I wanted one of those bad boys).

We arrived at Move-in Day. It all seemed very organized until an unruly band of student volunteer do-gooders, high on school spirit, besieged our car and threw everything into a sky-high pile on the curb. Our belongings, so perfectly organized in our SUV with Tetris-like precision, now a confusion of misshapen boxes splayed on the sidewalk like giant wheel-less squares last seen during the heyday of pyramid building.

I saw a sign that read “Free Carts!” I handed a heavy-set frat boy the donation fee, hoping my money was at least going toward a decent craft beer. My

EnvironmentTip

Consider more windows for natural light

Is your home chilly and dark in winter, or stuffy and dark in the summer? If your home has too small or too few windows, it can be difficult to get the natural light and ventilation you crave, and need for good health. You may look around your digs and think, “this place could stand some more windows,” but have no clue if it’s feasible to add them or how to get started.

Cutting a hole in a wall or roof can be a scary prospect for

son and I loaded the cart, now three times our height, and pulled it like two overworked oxen. After traveling 2 feet, we saw a line that, had it not snaked back and forth 40 times, would have stretched back to the Interstate.

A father in front turned around. “Elevator. Only one of them is running.”

A father behind resembling Antonio Silva put his giant hand on the back of my neck and said, “What do you say, buddy, should we show ‘em what we’re made of and take the Uptown Express?”

I so hoped the Uptown Express was an air-conditioned motorcar that served martinis, but I knew by the way he twisted my torso to the left, he meant the stairs.

The giant smiled and tucked three huge boxes filled with cement under one arm and a full-sized dresser under the other. I tried not to upset the Jenga-like stability of our cart and chose a throw pillow.

“This way to glory!” Silva shouted and kicked open the door to the stairwell.

He jogged up the stairs while belting out some sort of boot camp marching cadence about an unfaithful wife. On the fourth floor he started to pull away from me, mostly because I was taking a break on each stair to check for a pulse.

After about 45 minutes, I reached the 22nd floor, my “State University Dad” t-shirt drenched, only to open the stairwell door and see my wife and son step out of the elevator.

My son roomed with three other boys. They coordinated nothing and filled their room with four TVs, four Xboxes, four vacuums, four mini-fridges and four toilet brushes. My wife

homeowners, but adding windows, roof windows or skylights isn’t as hard as you might think.

What’s more, properly installed windows, roof windows or skylights can be a highly rewarding way to improve a home’s air quality, energy efficiency, healthfulness and visual appeal while making it a more pleasant place to be every day.

Unless you live in a bunker, your home already has vertical windows, and the support structure for them was incorporated into the wall when the home

spent all her time cleaning and organizing my son’s room, making his bed and putting his clothes away. Nothing had changed in 17 years.

It was time to say goodbye. All week I had practiced being tough and giving him a firm handshake with a hearty “Do good work, Son.” But when the time came, I was so choked up, I could barely say speak. My son, who I used to carry around on my shoulders so he could see parades better and with whom I made the slowest, wobbliest Pinewood Derby cars, was now built like a linebacker and grown. He also was choked up. I knew words of wisdom and encouragement were needed. I hugged my son tightly.

“Listen, it’s only 16 short weeks.

They will fly by – you’ll see. And there’s texting and FaceTime and Skype.

And then there’s Thanksgiving and then Christmas break.” After my son finished speaking, I wiped my eyes and realized he was right and I could probably handle it.

I left there and joined the other teary-eyed fathers being comforted by their wives near the elevator. Silva was there. He was still crying. I gave him a hug, and that helped. He hugged me back and dislodged something in my spine. Thank goodness the Bears had started pre-season so we all had something manly to talk about on the elevator ride to the lobby.

was built. Replacing an existing under-sized vertical window with a larger one should be an easy task for a professional. Installing a new window where none existed before is slightly more complex. The installers may need to add support to ensure the new opening doesn’t compromise the wall’s ability to support the weight of the roof and/or story above it.

Most traditional windows admit light at the wall level, while skylights bring light into the home from above. Roof windows

are somewhat of a hybrid. They are located within reach and are operated by hand, and they can provide a great view of both the landscape and sky.

Skylights often are the daylighting solution of choice for rooms with limited wall space or where privacy is paramount (such as bathrooms and bedrooms), but they can be a practical, attractive and cost-effective way to increase natural light and passive ventilation in any room or space in the home.

After a successful launch last year, the McHenry County Farm Stroll and Market is returning to educate area residents about agriculture and local farming.

Organized by the McHenry County Farm Bureau and the University of Illinois Extension McHenry County Master Gardeners, the second annual stroll will be from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sept. 25 at 12 farms throughout McHenry County.

The family-friendly, self-guided tour will feature apple orchards, vegetable growers, cows, goats, chickens, turkeys, horses, alpacas, a vineyard, sustainable agriculture, hydroponics and more.

The tour has no beginning or end, rather attendees are able to pick and choose the farms that interest them.

Attendees are asked to dress appropriately, with sturdy shoes. No pets are allowed. Because these are working farms, not every location is equipped with public facilities. Children are welcome but must be supervised at all times.

Last year, hundreds of visitors enjoyed a day in the country, according to a news release. Master Gardener and 4H volunteers will assist farm families in accommodating guests for farm-related demonstrations and tours.

Sandy Drevales of the Master Gardeners said more farmers and growers will be selling items than during last year’s farm stroll, which led organizers to rename the event as a farm stroll and market. The stroll is free, but cash is required for the food, produce or other farm-related products sold at each location.

Drevales said the stroll will feature a new selection of farmers and growers next year.

For information, call the McHenry County Farm Bureau at 815-338-1520 or visit mchenrycfb.org or the U of I Extension at http://web.extension. illinois.edu/lm.

Few role models for families in recovery Mr. Atwater: I’ve read about all there is to read about the symptoms of addiction. I’ve read about how alcoholism and drug addiction affect the user and the family. I’ve heard and seen personally the terrible price everyone pays. I’ve often read your articles and seen this information as well, but what I haven’t seen is what a “recovering family” looks like. Personally, we need something to shoot for. We need an ideal, even if we can’t get there. Do you have some information about this?

asked for as well. So at the expense of doing a little generalizing, I’ll try to describe some “symptoms” of a recovering family.

First, a family can be recovering even if all its members are not on board. It’s the movement in the right direction, the willingness to try that is the most important. A recovering family almost always faces a wall of fear and resistance as secrets are exposed and new ways of interacting are established. Some family members may interpret this fear and conflict as “more of the same,” but it usually is the shell that needs breaking before the family can get to

its core issues.

In a recovering family, members are more likely to be working on becoming more responsible for themselves and less responsible for others. This adds up to fewer protection rackets and less rescuing.

In a recovering family, members are more likely to be valued as individuals rather than the role they can play to help the family stay the same.

Family members are more likely to be encouraged to express themselves even if their opinions run counter to the prevailing notions, and conflicts are more likely to be resolved than discouraged or ignored.

There tends to more flexibility and less control, more openness and fewer secrets, more support and less criticism.

Sometimes a recovering family can feel pretty crazy at first because most of these changes are skills that take practice. So remember, ya gotta crawl before ya walk.

Emergency preparedness starts at home Have you heard the expression, “Hope for the best, but plan for the worst?” Most of us practice this daily.

For instance, we hope the rain will miss us, but we plan for the worst by putting up our car windows and storing patio cushions in the garage.

Doesn’t it also make sense to plan for the worst when it comes to a disaster? If you are thinking disasters can’t happen here, you’re wrong.

Sure, we are lucky enough to live in the Midwest, where watching the news is the closest we come to hurricanes and wildfires. But what about flooding, thunderstorms, blizzards and tornados? These events do happen in McHenry County and can be disastrous. Lower on the likelihood scale, but higher on the consequence scale, are other kinds of disasters such as earthquakes or terrorism that also can affect us.

September is National Preparedness Month, which is a perfect time to stop thinking about it and take action to prepare yourself and your family for an unexpected emergency.

There are some things you can do to keep safe during any emergency

that can be accomplished without a lot of time or expense. The following four steps provide a foundation for preparedness: 1. Be Informed. Educate yourself about emergency preparedness.

MCDHPrepare.info and Ready.gov both have emergency preparedness information. Learn what to do before, during and after an emergency. Think about a reliable source of information you could turn to for disaster instructions. You also can learn how to sign up for text alerts for your phone. Talk to your workplace or school about any emergency plans they have. Where would you go at work if there was a tornado warning? What if you had to evacuate?

2. Make a Plan. Having a plan your whole family knows can be a lifesaver when disaster strikes. This plan should include what you will do during common disasters such as a tornado. It also should include contact information, insurance documents and medical information for all of your family members. Pick a meeting place you will go to if your home is not safe, and an out of state contact person your family can call if local calls won’t get through. For

sample plans, see MCDHPrepare.info and Ready.gov.

3. Build a Kit. In a disaster, you may have to stay home for a while.

Have three days’ worth of water, food and medical supplies for your family. Other supplies such as flashlights and radios are important. An additional kit for your car with food, water, blankets and traffic cones will help keep you safe while on the road.

This is especially important with winter coming up. Also make an evacuation kit called a “bug-out” bag you can take with you in a hurry.

4. Get Involved. There are many ways to get involved before a disaster occurs. Consider joining the Medical Reserve Corps. Both medical and nonmedical volunteers are trained on how to help out in an emergency.

Help your workplace, school or other organization you are involved in create an emergency plan. Reach out to your neighbors about the importance

of being prepared in an emergency.

These activities ultimately make the whole community safer by reducing the burden on first responders. This allows them to focus on people in danger. It also helps the whole community to recover faster.

Preparedness does not end at these steps, but it is a good start.

Review your plan with your family twice a year. Stay informed about possible emergencies before they happen. Practice your plan with your family.

If you have any questions, contact the Health Department at 815-3344510 and ask to be connected with Emergency Preparedness and Response.

After finding her calling at a young age, 17-year-old violist Sofiya Kyrylyuk of Huntley prepares to take the world by storm

S

Story by KATIE ANDERSON–TEDDER • editorial@nwherald.com

ofiya Kyrylyuk possesses a rare and beautiful gift.

Clarity of purpose.

Kyrylyuk needs to be a professional string musician.

That need has driven the Huntley resident since she was just 5 years old toddling around the back of an opera house in her native Ukraine.

This need has guided her academic decisions, dominated her relationships and consumed her free time.

But this purpose is not a burden.

Even after spending just a few moments with Kyrylyuk, it is obvious it lifts her. Her passion pours out like a great light when she speaks, and that light is stunning.

Now 17, Kyrylyuk is nearing a critical step in her journey – readying for college and launching a career. If her past is any indication, her future will be bright.

Proven under pressure

To achieve a career as a professional string musician, Kyrylyuk will need the right combination of talent, dedication and luck, and the journey often starts with a prestigious musical college.

Kyrylyuk has her sights set on Colburn, Curtis Institute and Julliard – scholarship funded, she points out, the only way she can afford to attend.

There are many steps to application and acceptance, but Kyrylyuk is ready.

She is no stranger to hard work and pressure.

Kyrylyuk’s main instruments are viola and violin, although she plays many others.

From 2012 to 2014, she was the principal violinist with the North Suburban Symphony of Lake Forest. She also recently has held the position of concertmaster (considered second only to the conductor) in multiple Chicago area orchestras, including Canzonetta Youth String Orchestra and the Midwest Young Artists Conservatory Philharmonic and Concert Orchestras.

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

Sofiya Kyrylyuk rehearses in her family’s music room in Huntley. Kyrylyuk has been playing for more than 10 years. The teenager has made it basically her full-time job, as she practices hours every day and performs in competitions across the country. Music is in her blood, as her mother, Tetyana Torzhevska, is an ex-opera singer from Ukraine.

The Huntley teen is the principal violist at Midwest Young Artists Conservatory Symphony Orchestra, with which she recently performed in a concert in Millennium Park in Chicago.

Kyrylyuk has achieved this success because she doesn’t quit, according to her mother, Tetyana Torzhevska. And she never has.

When Kyrylyuk was 15, she entered a Society of American Musicians competition and worked for six months to prepare, her mother recalled.

Two days before the contest, as she was compiling paperwork, Kyrylyuk discovered she would be disqualified because she had learned the wrong music.

“I told her to forget about this competition, that there was no reason to go,” Torzhevska said.

Kyrylyuk would not admit defeat.

She spent the next 48 hours learning the right music.

“I could not believe it,” Torzhevska said. “She got second prize.”

Inspired early

Kyrylyuk doesn’t remember a time when music did not fill her life. Her mother sang soprano with an opera company in Kyviv, and her father was a professional violinist.

“She was 5 years old when she wanted to start to play violin,” Torzhevska said.

A natural from the start, there were never any “squeaky sounds,” Torzhevska recalls.

Kyrylyuk started lessons in September, and by December she was ready for her first recital.

“After she finished her song, she came to me and said, ‘Mom, I want to play another!’ So we asked, and she went to the stage and played another song,” Torzhevska said.

“After that, she comes back and asks again, and then wanted to play another! … By 7 years old, she knew she would be a musician,” Torzhevska said.

See VIOLIST, page 7

• VIOLIST

Continued from page 6

Instrument of choice

Appreciating and supporting her daughter’s drive, Torzhevska enrolled her little girl into the competitive Kiev Secondary Specialized Music School in Ukraine when Kyrylyuk was 6.

The school came with lessons in piano, music theory and advanced art and English classes, as well as private lessons every day.

“I only attended there half a year, but it helped me realize how much work it would take to actually pursue a career in music,” Kyrylyuk said.

Around the same time Kyrylyuk was trying out her first music school, a new relationship in Torzhevska’s life brought the family to their new home in the United States.

In the music world, when you are very talented, and have proven your talent and dedication and are in financial need, instruments are provided for you.

To play at an elite level as Kyrylyuk does, requires special instruments.

And Kyrylyuk has two in particular that she plays and is honored to use.

The first, is a 1988 Lawrence Furse viola on loan to her from the Rachel Barton Pine Foundation. The other, a newer, custom-made viola by Thomas Owen.

Growing years, growing talent

Throughout her grade school years, Kyrylyuk practiced with wild dedication.

“I never had to tell her to practice, she understood, like [all] musicians – if you don’t get good, nobody listens, and that will be punishment!” Torzhevska said.

Practice brought results.

But by age 12, after winning various prestigious awards on violin, Kyrylyuk decided to pick up the viola.

“I love the violin, and appreciate it,” Kyrylyuk said, “but as I grew taller and my arms grew longer, I wanted a bigger instrument. With the viola, I have more room to move.”

Not three years after taking up the viola and just halfway through the eighth grade, Kyrylyuk had progressed enough in her skills on her first instrument – the violin – to earn a spot with a prestigious Midwest orchestra. She needed to devote full-time hours to learning the music.

“With public school, there was just not enough time,” Kyrylyuk said.

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

That same year, Kyrylyuk was chosen to participate in the Johansen International Competition in Washington, D.C., for her viola playing – an honor considered in the classical world to be an important step on the path to becoming a prominent string musician.

All-around character

Kyrylyuk practices anywhere from three to six hours a day, every day, takes private lesson, attends classes in conducting and theory, and plays multiple times a week with various other groups.

But when she does take a break from music, Kyrylyuk writes poetry, brainstorms how to build her own car

one day and studies kyuki-do, a form of martial arts.

If she has a second passion, it might be kyuki-do. Kyrylyuk is a brown stripe and is working to achieve black belt within the next year.

“It is my way to get away from music, especially when I am working on something or when I am frustrated,” she said.

Kyrylyuk finds many similarities between being an accomplished string musician and martial arts.

“You must be relaxed but alert. You have to focus on your hands and fingers and everything must be perfect, for example, to break a board,” she said.

Breaking boards is much better

“

Accomplished, without boundaries

With so much success, Kyrylyuk already has achieved more than the majority of musicians her age and more than most who dare to pick up a bow. Can it ever be enough?

“You never can be perfect. There is always something you can improve.

Either in your abilities or artistically,” she said. “I feel like in music you can never really arrive.”

She enjoys teaching music and helping her mother run a nonprofit music camp with the St. John’s United Church of Christ in Union.

For Torzhevska, enough will be – like it always has – when Kyrylyuk says so.

“I think she would be in a quartet or be a chamber musician, but I think she wants to make a solo career. Maybe, I think, she doesn’t understand what a commitment that is, and a good chamber quartet would be best, but again, she should decide,” Torzhevska said.

“I just want her to feel happy and satisfied, because no matter what, she is my daughter, and no matter what she achieves, I will love her.”

You never can be perfect. There is always something you can improve. Either in your abilities or artistically.

I feel like in music you can never really arrive.
