TODAY’S TALKER

2016’s hellish summer weather: The daily A told-you-so climate moment? TWEET @NWHerald

By SETH BORENSTEIN The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – This summer’s weather was relentless and hellish, crowded with the type of record-smashing extremes that scientists long have warned about.

The season ends Wednesday, and not a moment too soon. Summer featured floods that killed hundreds of people and caused more than $50 billion in losses around the globe, from Louisiana and West Virginia to China, India, Europe and the Sudan. Meanwhile, droughts parched croplands and wildfires burned from California to Canada to China and India. Toss in unrelenting record heat.

From June to August, there were at least 10 different weather disasters that each caused more than $1 billion in losses, according to insurance industry tallies. With summer weather now seemingly stretching from May to September, extreme weather in that span killed well more than 2,000 people. That’s without a major hurricane hitting a big U.S. city, although the Pacific had its share of deadly and costly storms, among them Typhoon Nepartak, which killed 111 people in Asia.

“It is representing, I think, a notch up for the impacts we have had to deal with,” U.S. National Weather Service Director Louis Uccellini said.

“We’ve experienced an increasing number and a disturbing number of weather extremes this summer.”

While flooding made the news, the “sneaky” thing about the summer was heat that did not even ease at night, said Deke Arndt, climate monitoring chief at the federal National Centers for Environmental Information in Asheville, North Carolina. When temperatures drop to below 72

at night, it allows the body to recharge, plants to grow and air conditioners to be shut off. But this year, that didn’t happen enough.

The U.S. set a record for the hottest nighttime temperatures on average this summer, Arndt said. Tallahassee, Florida, for example, went 74 consecutive days where the nighttime temperature didn’t dip below 72.

From May 1 to Sept. 12, nearly 15,000 daily records for warmest nighttime lows were set in the United States, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data.

“This is one of the clearest signals we expect for climate change,” said Mark Bove, a New Jersey-based senior research meteorologist for re-insurance giant Munich RE, which tracks natural disasters. “It keeps a blanket on you particularly at night. We cannot radiate the heat away at night as the planet used to.”

While records were broken, the summer has “been more notable for the consistency of the heat than individual high-impact heatwaves,” said Blair Trewin of the Australian Bureau of Meteorology and the World Meteorological Organization.

Twelve U.S. cities had their warmest summers ever, including Las Vegas, New Orleans, Cleveland and Detroit. The globe had its hottest month on record (July) and hottest summer on record. August was the 16th consecutive month Earth set a monthly heat record, according to NOAA. Temperatures of 129 degrees were recorded in Mitribah, Kuwait, and Basra, Iraq. If verified, these would be not only the hottest temperatures recorded for Asia, but the hottest recorded outside a much-debated record in Death Valley, according to weather historians.

Carone has been battling pancreatic cancer since May 2013 and these past few years he has done a cancer fundraiser, “BP for a Cause,” where he goes to Major League ballparks and takes batting practice with the teams. He recently visited U.S. Cellular Field and the White Sox, and on Thursday he will visit Miller Park in Milwaukee.

After more than 3 years, Cary man continues to fight cancer, give back

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com Rick Carone didn’t feel well. Days after surgery, he arrived at U.S. Cellular Field for batting practice.

Carone had a nerve block inserted into his body to ease the pain that the tumor on his pancreas was creating for the surrounding nerves. He also was given a new stent and had a biopsy done.

None of that was stopping the 45-year-old Cary native from taking some cuts at the Chicago White Sox ballpark Sept. 6 to raise money for

Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago.

That’s the thing about Carone – he never stops fighting.

Diagnosed with Stage IV pancreatic cancer in May 2013, Carone was told he had six months to live. It has been more than three years, and he still keeps fighting.

Another Cary resident, Nick Malooley, was on hand to watch Carone take batting practice with White Sox players David Robertson, Adam Eaton, Todd Frazier, J.B. Shuck and Tim Anderson. Malooley could tell Carone was ailing.

“The day of the batting practice, he

was in so much pain,” Malooley said.

“We were all like, ‘Rick, you don’t have to do this.’ We couldn’t believe he was swinging the bat as well as he did.”

This was the deal: Robertson agreed to donate $100 for every home run the big leaguers hit. If Carone hit one out of the park, Robertson would double the total.

“I’ve been blessed in a lot of different ways, and one of them is to still be able to hit the baseball a little bit,” Carone said.

Carone’s weight has dropped in recent years, and he doesn’t quite swing it like he did when he played in the

White Sox’s minor league system from 1993 to 1996 or during college ball at Illinois State and Ole Miss. Even so, the 1989 Cary-Grove graduate blasted one over the wall down the left-field line.

“We all cheered when he got that home run,” Malooley said.

All in all, Robertson wrote a check for $3,500 to Lurie Children’s Hospital.

‘His spirit is what inspires’

County Board approves Chris Christensen to fill vacant seat

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Businessman Chris Christensen officially replaced Nick Provenzano on the McHenry County Board – for a little more than two months, anyway.

While the County Board voted Tuesday to officially install Christensen, of rural Cary, to fill out the remainder of Provenzano’s term, voters in County Board District 3 will decide Nov. 6 whether Christensen gets four years representing them – Republican precinct committeemen already placed him on the ballot.

County Board members voted, 230, to appoint Christensen. McHenry County Chief Judge Michael Sullivan swore him in after the vote.

“As a lifelong McHenry County resident, I’m honored and humbled to have been appointed to the McHenry County Board to serve the remaining two months of Nick Provenzano’s term.

I’m extremely excited and can’t wait to work for the residents of District 3. I will represent my district and McHenry County in a way the community can be proud of, and that they will feel confident in electing me to the term that follows,” Christensen said.

How they voted The McHenry County Board voted Tuesday evening, 23-0, to appoint Christ Christensen to fill out the remainder of former member Nick Provenzano’s term.

Provenzano, of McHenry, announced in August that we was stepping down from the County Board to work full time as deputy district director for Republican U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Plano. He officially resigned earlier this month, the day after casting a “yes” vote for building a full interchange at Interstate 90 and Route 23 – a project he has strongly championed.

Christensen’s current term, along with half of the 24-member County Board, expires Dec. 5. Those who are re-elected will be sworn in and seated at that meeting.

Tuesday’s vote also puts Christensen in Provenzano’s former seats on the board’s Finance and Audit, Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs, Transportation, and Facilities committees. He will only be a member of the legislative committee – member Larry Smith, R-Harvard, takes the

Harvard clerk arrested on child porn charges NORTHWEST HERALD HARVARD – City Clerk Andrew J. Wells was arrested Monday on child pornography charges.

Wells, 54, of Harvard, was charged Monday with three counts of possession of child pornography – each a Class 3 felony. McHenry County Sheriff’s detectives had Andrew J. been investigating the Wells man for three months after they received a tip from a resident.

Police said images containing child pornography were found on an electronic device that belonged to Wells.

He was arrested at his office Monday

The investigation is ongoing. Wells is scheduled to appear in court at 9 a.m.

chairmanship that Provenzano held.

Committees will be reassigned early next year to account for new board members.

Even if every County Board incumbent on the ballot wins re-election in November, the County Board will have at least six new members, not including Christensen – two existing members lost in the March primary, two ran for other offices instead, and two decided not to run again.

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. 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.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Animal Control officials say pets have a better chance of being reunited with their families if they have microchips for quick identification and a current rabies vaccination/registration record.

McHenry County Animal Control & Adoption Center will host a low-cost rabies vaccination and microchip clinic for McHenry County residents from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Oct. 15 at its Crystal Lake facility, 100 N. Virginia St. The service will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Doors will open at 11 a.m. Animal Control officials ask that no one bring animals that are in heat. All pets also must either be leashed or in carriers.

Rabies vaccinations are $10 for one year or $25 for three years. Registration tags are required by law; registration fees are separate and required at the time of rabies vaccination.

Discounts for senior residents ap-

ply and for pets who have been previously spayed or neutered when purchasing registration tags. Microchips are $15.

Animal Control officials said there is no cure for rabies, and it is almost always fatal. Rabies vaccinations provide pets with the best protection against this disease. Unlike dog tags and collars that can fall off or be removed, microchips are a more permanent form of pet identification. Animal microchips are about the size of a grain of rice and are typically implanted just beneath the surface of the skin between the shoulder blades. The process is similar to receiving vaccination through a needle.

Adoptions for $80 also will be available and include age-appropriate vaccinations, spay/neuter, FELV & FIV testing, microchip, heartworm and a free first veterinarian visit at participating veterinarians.

11th annual Fall Fest returns to Deicke Park

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – From pumpkin bowling to scarecrow making, families can celebrate the season at Huntley Fall Fest.

Festival Chairman Bryant Haniszewski said that in its 11th year, the festival has grown from being a one-day event with an admission fee to being a three-day, admission-free event.

“It’s basically geared to make it a fun, affordable time for a family to come out without spending a ton of money,” Haniszewski said.

The festival will be from 5 to 11 p.m.

Friday, 10 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday at the Huntley Park District, 12015 Mill St., and adjoining Deicke Park.

Performers on the main stage will include Sonic 7, 7th Heaven, The Good Mondays, Pirates Over 40, Livewire, Bella Cain, Modern Day Romeos, Serendipity, Denny Diamond and American English.

The festival also will feature fire-

While admission is free, some costs apply to activities, including the pony rides, petting zoo, carnival rides and food and drink, Haniszewski said.

The event is run by volunteers on the Huntley Fall Fest Committee, Haniszewski said.

What makes this festival different from others is its location, he said. Attractions are spread throughout the Huntley Park District and Deicke Park, and it can take visitors more than one day to see it all.

“We encourage people to come more than one day – there’s a lot to do,” Haniszewski said.

NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – McHenry County residents can learn how to create a sustainable local food system Friday.

Land Protection: A Key Ingredient to a Sustainable Local Food System will take place from noon to 1:30 p.m. at the Colonel Palmer House, 660 E. Terra Cotta Road, Crystal Lake.

The event will be led by Lenore Beyer-Clow, vice president of policy and planning at Openlands. Beyer-Clow will talk about efforts to provide land access to local farmers who are inter-

ested in sustainable farming. Eventgoers also will learn how innovative ideas can unify the goals of land protection, conservation and food growing to create a more sustainable region.

While the Chicago region has a high demand for locally grown food, Beyer-Clow will discuss how protection methods that provide land at an affordable price for local farmers are in the early stages of development.

Event admission will be $10 for residents and $15 for nonresidents. A boxed lunch is provided with admission.

• BP FOR A CAUSE

“While I still can, I want to give back and try to motivate and inspire.”

Continued from page A3

Rick Carone

Cary native whose Team Carone Foundation raises money for cancer research

Daryl Quitalig for Shaw Media

Rick Carone takes a swing Sunday during a batting practice with Cary-Grove baseball coach Don Sutherland, who was his high school coach, at Cary-Grove High School.

Carone has been battling pancreatic cancer since May 2013, and these past few years he has done a cancer fundraiser, “BP for a Cause,” where he goes to Major League ballparks and takes batting practice with the teams.

to the community through events, fundraisers and scholarships. Carone estimates it has raised close to $60,000 in the past two years alone.

“BP for a Cause” started in 2013 when Carone’s friend Adam LaRoche invited him to hit with the Washington Nationals before a game at Wrigley Field. Carone used to be a videographer for the TV show “Buck Commander” and co-hosts a show on the Sportsman Channel called “Sheep Shape.” He met LaRoche through his connections in the outdoor industry.

Since the first event at Wrigley, Carone has taken batting practice with the Miami Marlins, the San Francisco Giants and on Thursday will visit the Milwaukee Brewers. At U.S. Cellular Field, Carone had more than 40 guests in attendance.

That included Malooley’s son, McKai Malooley, who had his first birthday Aug. 1 and had a tumor removed from his leg Aug. 17. McKai was diagnosed in January with rhabdomyosarcoma, a cancer of the body’s muscle and soft tissue. He is working his way through 104 weeks of chemotherapy.

His family – including McKai’s parents, Nick and Laura, his two older sisters and two grandparents – made the trip to watch Carone hit.

They were far from the only family present that has dealt with cancer.

At batting practice, the Malooleys met Petey Van der Voort, a 5-year-old who was diagnosed with clear-cell sarcoma of the kidney when he was 2. Petey has been in remission for nearly two years.

The Van der Voorts live in Wilmette now, but Petey’s father, Derek, went to high school with Carone. Petey’s mother, Marnie Van der Voort, once asked her husband whether Carone always had so much positive energy. The answer was yes.

“The fact that he doesn’t ever complain, he doesn’t ever give up and just his spirit is what inspires people around him,” Marnie Van der Voort said. “The guy, I don’t think he has ever met anyone who wasn’t his friend.

“The fact that he, who shouldn’t even be here, was hitting a home run out of the Cell is amazing.”

Petey was too young to remember undergoing treatment, but he does take a CT scan every six months and has made a habit of calling the circular CT scanner a “doughnut.”

After batting practice, he flagged down Carone.

“Mr. Rick,” Petey said. “The money you’re raising, is this for more doughnuts?”

“Yeah,” Carone said. “Of course it is, buddy.”

Sutherland was Carone’s high school coach. Carone used the bat at AT&T Park in July during a batting practice, and later that same day, Pence used it to hit a home run. At a later game, Pence brought the bat to Wrigley Field, where he delivered it to Carone.

Shape.” He keeps busy, and that’s the way he likes it.

He has his days – such as the one at U.S. Cellular Field – when he’s not feeling his best. But then he sees kids like McKai and Petey, or he hears from friends, family, even strangers, and he still feels the motivation to keep going.

His most recent CT scan, taken Thursday, provided positive results: His cancer has not grown or spread.

“I’m a miracle, I know I’m a miracle,” Carone said. “God has his reasons why he’s keeping me around. Like I say in my prayers every day, ‘God I know you can cure me and I know you have the means to do that. However, if that’s not in your will, please give me the strength to overcome any setbacks.’

“While I still can, I want to give back and try to motivate and inspire.”

There aren’t any doughnuts on the menu for the #ShutDownCancer Music Fest on Saturday at Wegener Ranch in McHenry. There is, however, barbecue-style smoked brisket. The meat is donated by LaRoche’s E3 Meat Co. and will be prepared by the Crystal Lake Rib House.

As always, the fight never stops.

Carone will hit BP at Milwaukee’s Miller Park on Thursday and then follow it up two days later with the fourth annual music fest. This year’s edition features five musical artists, headlined

by Nashville recording artist Clare Dunn.

The event draws about 500 people, but it is prepared for more. There will be an auction of memorabilia Carone has collected throughout his travels, which already is live online. Tickets and auction information are available at teamcaronefoundation.org. All proceeds from the event benefit cancer research, local families battling cancer and scholarships for District 155 athletes.

Carone’s goal is to bring action to the fight, not just awareness.

STATE

30-year term for ex-National Guard soldier The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – A Chicago federal judge on Tuesday sentenced a former Illinois National Guard soldier and his cousin to prison for plotting to join Islamic State fighters and attack a U.S. military facility.

Hasan Edmonds, 23, the former soldier, was sentenced in U.S. District Court to 30 years in prison. His cousin, Jonas Edmonds, 30, received a 21year prison sentence.

The sentences matched what prosecutors asked for the men, both residents of suburban Aurora.

Hasan Edmonds devised a plan to travel to the Middle East while Jonas Edmonds attacked the National Guard armory in Joliet, about 45 miles southwest of Chicago, according to prosecutors. The goal, prosecutors said, was to kill as many as 150 people at the facility.

Jonas Edmonds said he dropped off Hasan Edmonds at the airport to travel to the Middle East to join Islamic State fighters. But Jonas Edmonds denied he would have attacked the military armory.

Foul play suspected in 4 Rockford house fire deaths

ROCKFORD – Authorities in Rockford said they suspect foul play in the deaths of three children and a woman in a northern Illinois house fire.

The Winnebago County Coroner’s Office said 27-yearold Keandra Austin, 9-year-old V’Angelo Totty, 6-year-old Keeryn Austin and 6-month-old Aliya Beasley-Austin died in the Saturday morning blaze.

Rockford Police Department Assistant Deputy Chief Kevin Ogden said autopsies conducted Monday by the Winnebago County Coroner’s Office were inconclusive as to cause of the deaths.

er would have gone through with the attack.

It was a characterization that was dismissed by Assistant U.S. Attorney Barry Jonas. As he held up a duffel bag filled with National Guard uniforms, Jonas said that Edmonds planned to don the uniform to help him blend in and gain access to the armory for the attack.

“Thank God the FBI was there to stop him,” Jonas said.

After dropping his cousin off at Chicago’s Midway International Airport on March 25, 2015, Jonas Edmonds went to his cousin’s home and collected the uniforms, prosecutors said. Hasan Edmonds, filings said, instructed Jonas to kill high-ranking officers first.

Agents arrested Hasan Edmonds at the airport and detained Jonas Edmonds at his home shortly thereafter.

Coach who claimed team cheated sues Little League

CHICAGO – The coach who reported residency issues that led Little League Baseball International to strip a Chicago team of its 2014 U.S. championship has sued the league itself.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported that Evergreen Park coach Chris Janes filed the lawsuit Monday in federal court.

Janes claims that the league

initiated a cover-up after he told them several Jackie Robinson West players lived outside approved league boundaries, telling him his claim had no merit and exposing him and his family to “public humiliation, death threats and fear for their lives.”

The lawsuit said that three months after Janes said something, the league “changed its opinion” and found the team falsified a boundary map.

He is seeking more than $75,000 in damages for emotional distress.

The league declined to comment.

Meetings on deer disease set for northern Ill. cities

LENA – Illinois wildlife management officials have scheduled meetings to provide information on chronic wasting disease in the white-tailed deer population as hunting season nears.

Illinois Department of Natural Resources meetings on CWD will be Oct. 18 at the Nash Recreation Center in Oregon and Oct. 19 at the Big Rock Park District Community Building in Big Rock.

Previously announced meetings will be Wednesday in Elizabeth, Sept. 27 in Freeport and Sept. 28 in Yorkville. All start at 7 p.m.

Deer that contract chronic wasting disease become emaciated and uncoordinated, and eventually die. The first case was reported in Illinois in 2002.

CWD has been detected in deer in 16 counties across the northern edge and northeastern portions of Illinois as far south as the Illinois River Valley.

Rauner creates state bicentennial planning groups

SPRINGFIELD – Gov. Bruce Rauner is gearing up for the Land of Lincoln’s 200th birthday.

The Republican governor signed an executive order Tuesday creating an Illinois Bicentennial Commission and the Governor’s Office of the Illinois Bicentennial to plan festivities for 2018.

Rauner hired Stuart Layne as Illinois Bicentennial Executive.

Layne has extensive marketing experience, and a news release said he has expertise in research, branding, publicity, events and sponsor partnerships.

Illinois became the nation’s 21st state on Dec. 3, 1818.

Rauner said the bicentennial will be a chance to “celebrate Illinois’ contributions to the country and the world and plan for our next 200 years of innovation and achievement.”

Rauner’s action dissolved a 77-member state bicentennial commission created in 2014.

The new, 51-member group will include 40 gubernatorial appointees.

Crime-scene investigators work Sunday at the scene of Saturday’s explosion in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood in New York.

FBI looked into suspect in bombing 2 years ago The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – The FBI looked into New York bombing suspect Ahmad Khan Rahami two years ago – and came up with nothing alarming – after his father expressed concerns his son might be a terrorist, law enforcement officials said Tuesday.

During the inquiry, the father backed away from talk of terrorism and told investigators that he simply meant his son was hanging out with the wrong crowd, including gang members, and acting like a thug, the officials said.

In any case, the FBI checked its databases and other sources and closed the inquiry in a matter of weeks after seeing nothing tying Rahami to terrorism, three law enforcement officials said.

Also Tuesday, investigators disclosed that when Rahami was shot and captured, he had a notebook with him that contained extremist ramblings.

One bloodstained section contained references to both Anwar al-Awlaki, the American-born cleric who was killed in a 2011 drone strike and whose preaching has inspired other acts of violence, and Nidal Hasan, the former Army officer who went on a deadly shooting rampage in 2009 at Fort Hood, Texas.

The information emerged as the younger Rahami, 28, was being held on $5.2 million bail, charged with the attempted murder of police officers during the shootout that led to his capture Monday outside a bar in Linden, New Jersey. Federal prosecutors said they were still drawing up charges over the weekend bomb-

ings in New York City and a New Jersey seaside town that wounded 29 people.

Rahami, a U.S. citizen born in Afghanistan, remained hospitalized Tuesday with gunshot wounds to the leg, forearm and shoulder, authorities said.

Federal agents have tried to question Rahami in the hospital. But Rep. Tom MacArthur, R-N.J., who received a classified briefing from the FBI, said Rahami was not cooperating. The congressman said he doesn’t know whether Rahami has a lawyer.

Investigators are looking into Rahami’s overseas travel, including a visit to Pakistan a few years ago, and want to know whether he received any money or training from extremist organizations.

Rahami’s father, Mohammad Rahami, spoke with the FBI after the younger Rahami was charged in 2014 with stabbing his brother, according to the officials, who were not authorized to discuss the investigation and spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity. Rahami was not prosecuted in the stabbing; a grand jury declined to indict him.

Rahami’s father told reporters Tuesday outside the family’s fried-chicken restaurant in Elizabeth, New Jersey, that he called the FBI at the time because Rahami “was doing real bad,” having stabbed the brother and hit his mother.

“But they checked, almost two months, and they say, ‘He’s OK, he’s clear, he’s not terrorist.’ Now they say he’s a terrorist,” the father said. Asked whether he thought his son was a terrorist, he said: “No. And the FBI, they know that.”

Officer-involved shooting under investigation Lawyers for slain man: Discussion of drugs a distraction The ASSOCIATED PRESS TULSA, Okla. – Investigators found the drug PCP in the vehicle of an unarmed black man fatally shot by a white officer, according to Oklahoma police, but attorneys for the slain man’s family say discussion of drugs distracts from questions about the use of deadly force.

Tulsa Sgt. Dave Walker told the Tulsa World on Tuesday that investigators recovered one vial of PCP in Terence Crutcher’s SUV, but he declined to say where in the vehicle it was found or whether officers determined if Crutcher used it Friday night. Walker confirmed to The Associated Press that what he told the newspaper was true, but declined to comment further.

Attorneys for Crutcher’s family said the man’s relatives did not know whether drugs were found in his vehicle and, even if they were, that

“Let us not be throwing a red herring, and to say because something was found in the car that was justification to shoot him,” said attorney Benjamin Crump, one of the family’s lawyers.

Crump compared Crutcher’s shooting to Monday’s arrest of New York bombing suspect Ahmad Khan Rahami, who police say engaged officers in a shootout.

no crime, who only needs a hand, given bullets in his lungs?” Crump said.

Tulsa police officer Betty Shelby fatally shot the 40-year-old Crutcher on Friday after responding to a report of a stalled vehicle. Sgt. Shane Tuell said Tuesday that Shelby had a stun gun at the time of the shooting but did not use it. Officer Tyler Turnbough, who is also white, used a stun gun on Crutcher, police said.

Two 911 calls described an SUV that had been abandoned in the middle of the road. One unidentified caller said the driver was acting strangely, adding, “I think he’s smoking something.”

Oklahoma prison officials confirmed Tuesday that Crutcher served four years in prison on a drug conviction from 2007 to 2011.

But Damario Solomon-Simmons, another attorney for Crutcher’s family, said Shelby and other officers had no way of knowing about Crutcher’s background or the potential for drugs in his vehicle when they approached him Friday.

“It’s undisputed that the officers on the scene had no idea what may be in Terence’s car,” Solomon-Simmons said. “At that particular moment that he was shot, he was not a suspect for any crime. Period.”

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon speaks Tuesday during the 71st session of the U.N. General Assembly at U.N. headquarters. ing havoc in the Mideast and elsewhere “will not be quickly reversed.” Still, he stuck faithfully to his insistence that diplomatic efforts and not military solutions are the key to resolving Syria’s civil war and other conflicts.

He lamented that while the world has become a safer and more prosperous place by many measures, people have lost faith in public institutions amid frightening problems such as terrorism and a devastating refugee crisis.

“It’s no surprise that some argue the future favors the strongman,” Obama said. “But I believe the road to true democracy remains the better path.”

While there was no mention of the bitterly fought U.S. presidential contest, this year’s General Assembly opens amid uncertainty over who will succeed Obama, and perhaps less crucially, who will succeed former South Korean diplomat Ban at the U.N. In a less-than-subtle jab at Donald Trump, the Republican running to replace him, Obama said, “The world is too small for us to simply be able to build a wall and prevent [extremism] from affecting our own societies.”

Jordan’s King Abdullah II offered an impassioned defense of Islam while condemning extremists as outlaws who want to “drag us back to the dark ages.” But he added that false perceptions of Islam in the West were breeding further intolerance.

Obama was unabashed in his critique of Russia as he laid out his diagnosis of the world’s ills. Obama’s longstanding differences with Russian President Vladimir Putin over his actions in Ukraine have accompanied intense disagreement over Syria’s future and a series of failed attempts by Russia and the U.S. to resolve the civil war there together.

UNITED NATIONS – U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon railed Tuesday against leaders who keep “feeding the war machine” in Syria as he bowed out of the world stage, while President Barack Obama said there was no military solution to the five-year conflict and described a globe in the throes of a contest between authoritarianism and democracy.

Both Ban and Obama were making their final speeches at the annual gathering of world leaders at the United Nations. They did so against a backdrop of mounting bloodshed and a failing cease-fire in Syria, escalating attacks around the world by Islamic extremists, and millions of people fleeing fighting and poverty.

The U.N. chief, whose 10-year period at the helm of the unwieldy world body ends Dec. 31, vented his pent-up frustration with uncharacteristic candor, telling the opening of the General Assembly’s annual ministerial meeting that “powerful patrons” on both sides in the Syrian conflict – which he did not identify – “have blood on their hands.”

“Present in this hall today are representatives of governments that have ignored, facilitated, funded, participated in or even planned and carried out atrocities inflicted by all sides of the Syria conflict against Syrian civilians,” he said.

But Ban blamed the Syrian government for the most deaths. He said it was continuing to drop barrel bombs on neighborhoods and torture thousands of detainees. Syria’s Foreign Ministry condemned Ban’s address and contended that the U.N had failed to resolve any conflicts on his watch.

Ban spoke as the U.S., Russia and more than a dozen other countries attempted to resurrect a week-old truce, and Washington and Moscow argued over who was responsible for an attack Monday on an aid convoy that killed some 20 civilians that the U.N. chief denounced as a “sickening, savage and apparently deliberate attack.” Ban called the bombers “cowards.”

The Syrian conflict has killed as many as half-million people, contributed to Europe’s worst refugee crisis since World War II and allowed the Islamic State group to emerge as a global threat.

Obama acknowledged that the extremist and sectarian violence wreak-

ANOTHER VIEW

Insurance act a good move It’s always nice to look at Springfield now and then and see accomplishment. It’s even better when that accomplishment is bipartisan.

Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs last week spoke about a problem he saw with life insurance. Namely, that some companies were holding on to more than $550 million in unpaid claims since 2011.

Frerichs said when someone dies, sometimes there would be policies the beneficiaries wouldn’t know about and, because they didn’t directly ask the company about the specific policy, the money would just stay in the hands of a corporation and not the bereaved.

Yikes. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to make money, but this just felt really slimy. It’s one thing if a company does its best to reach out to people, leaving multiple messages for them and the family just never claims the benefits. It’s another to do this.

He gave the example of a woman who died in a car accident, leaving behind two children with learning disabilities. The children were adopted, but their new guardian had no idea their late mother had taken out an insurance policy to help pay for their needs, should anything happen to her. Well, the adoptive mother didn’t ask, so no money.

Frerichs claimed some companies played coy so unpaid claims would improve profit margins.

When he audited companies to find whether this behavior was taking place, there was some resistance to his efforts and some lawsuits with accusations the office was overreaching its power.

The Unclaimed Life Insurance Benefits Act required companies to use the Social Security Administration’s Death Master File database to confirm payment of life insurance benefits.

A short time after Frerichs, a Democrat, discussed the problem, our Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner signed the act into law. Illinois is the 23rd state to pass such a law, and they have been championed by Democrats and Republicans alike throughout the country.

We applaud Frerichs for championing the cause, and we applaud Rauner for signing it into law. Supporting a law that makes sure families receive the money their deceased loved ones set aside for them seems like a no-brainer. Being the man or woman who scoffs at such a law seems like it could be political suicide. But even though supporting the law seems safe, it’s always nice in Illinois to see Democrats and Republicans agree on something and get it done.

ANOTHER VIEW

Looking for leaders in wake of attacks Within the space of 12 hours Saturday, there were explosions in New Jersey and New York and a mass stabbing in Minnesota.

Dozens of people were injured, although thankfully no victims were killed in what authorities are investigating as acts of terrorism. No question the events were scary: “This is the nightmare scenario” in a post-9/11 world, said New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, D. At the same time, Americans should feel reassured by how competently and seamlessly local, state and federal authorities responded to the attacks, prevented others and developed leads.

Even better, ordinary citizens – particularly those in New York and New Jersey who bear the scars of previous attacks – resolved not to give in to fear or panic. Instead, they helped out neighbors in need and got back to their business.

Less than two days after a bomb designed to do maximum

damage exploded in the Chelsea neighborhood and other devices were found in New York City and New Jersey, authorities had identified and apprehended a suspect. Ahmad Khan Rahami, 28, a U.S. citizen born in Afghanistan, was taken into custody after an apparent shootout with police in which he was wounded and two police officers were shot.

What motivated him, whether he acted alone or was influenced by or connected to international terrorist groups, will be the focus of the ongoing investigation by multiple agencies. The same kind of questions are being probed in the case of Dahir Aden, the 22-year-old who went on a stabbing rampage in a St. Cloud shopping mall before he was killed by an off-duty police officer.

In commending law enforcement and counterterrorism officials, President Barack Obama on Monday stressed the importance of letting them do their jobs

so as to prevent false reports or incomplete information.

The obvious need for such prudence sadly – but not surprisingly – did not seem to matter to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. Before there was any determination of the Chelsea explosion’s source, Trump nonetheless proclaimed at a campaign stop in Colorado that a bomb had gone off. He may have guessed right, but that would be a reckless way to do business in the Oval Office.

Equally disturbing was Trump’s bombast about how he would approach terrorism – “knock the hell out of ‘em” – and maybe use racial profiling. By contrast, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton wanted to know the facts, and called for the support of first responders and prayers for the injured. It was the kind of calm and caution one naturally expects from a leader.

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.

Franks will shake up county government

To the Editor: I entered County Board chairman candidate Jack Franks’ Crystal Lake Town Hall meeting as an undecided voter and left as an enthusiastic Franks supporter.

I was impressed with Mayor Aaron Shepley’s introduction and endorsement and learned most every mayor, all Republicans, also have endorsed Franks.

Jack answered every question openly and honestly, and his realistic plan to reduce the county tax levy by 10 percent makes perfect sense. Franks gave detailed answers and real life examples to demonstrate his plan. It is clear that with Jack as the chairman, the county government will be much more transparent, accountable and citizen-friendly. He will not tolerate insider deals and cronyism.

Under Franks’ leadership, taxpayers will come first, and everyone will be held accountable.

Jack Franks is what McHenry County needs to reduce property taxes and to truly reform a county government that desperately needs a shakeup.

Walkup is a liberal tax-and-spend politician. His history of tax- and fee-increasing votes are indisputable. His attempt to tax and regulate water usage while also increasing property taxes was foolish. His running for two elected positions simultaneously is greedy. His removal from a County Board committee for excessive absenteeism is embarrassing. His decision to skip County Board meetings when voting on controversial issues such as infrastructure improvements is ;a3 Walkup is not deserving of support and should just drop out of the race, before he causes more harm.

Go when the light is green

His political career now is over.

But that isn’t keeping a chorus of reporters, lawmakers and other political insiders from shaking their heads and clucking their tongues.

In this era of “gotcha journalism” it doesn’t matter that public trust was not violated. Reporters saw a salacious story and went with it.

I spoke with Sandack briefly on the phone Monday. He told me it was a rough time for him and his family.

After all, his wife and kids didn’t do anything to deserve this kind of derision, but they are hurting. For that matter, Sandack didn’t break any laws or fail to fulfill his obligations as a lawmaker.

He just showed poor personal judgment.

In a prepared statement, Sandack said, “I was the target of an interna-

tional crime ring targeting high-profile individuals luring them to engage in inappropriate online conversations to extort them, and I fell for their bait hook, line and sinker. But nonetheless, I was a victim. Poor decisions on my part enabled me to be a victim.”

He’s owned up to his mistake.

But I found his final words in the statement haunting: “I’m human. I made a mistake for which I am remorseful and ashamed; especially because I have hurt my family … and there is no greater self-inflicted wound than that.”

Isn’t that the truth?

Myth of school consolidation

To the Editor: In the Sept. 10 edition, the Northwest Herald had an article about consolidating schools. School consolidation sounds like a good idea in theory, but when theory meets the harsh reality of the greed and politics that exists in our schools and throughout Illinois, consolidation becomes a losing proposition.

I served on the school board of a unit (consolidated) district for several years.

After analyzing the district’s finances I estimated close to $3 million a year could have been saved if the district were operated as two separate districts.

This is because all teachers in a district have to be paid from the same salary scale. Unions insist on this setup as part of their economic and political control.

High school districts pay their teachers more than elementary districts do. When districts are consolidated, the elementary teacher’s salaries have to be raised to the level of the high school teachers.

Since about 60 percent of all teachers in a consolidated district are elementary teachers, this is a huge extra cost. Of course, in a rational world, there should be some flexibility in salary scales, but the unions will not allow this. That is why Scott Walker in Wisconsin had to curtail union power to reform schools in his state.

There may be some isolated situations where consolidation will work; combining two or more high school districts or combining two or more elementary districts. But any attempt at consolidation must be approached cautiously. Any general consolidation will be a financial disaster.

SPRINGFIELD – Sometimes smart people do really stupid things.

And sometimes good people do things they wish they hadn’t.

None of us is perfect.

I’ve learned that in the 30 years I’ve been in the news business. When people make mistakes, if a public trust isn’t violated, sometimes mercy rather than judgment is the best response.

That’s why my heart goes out to former state Rep. Ron Sandack. He’s a good man who got caught up in something awful.

The Downers Grove Republican apparently is the victim of an extortion ring based in the Philippines.

According to a Downers Grove police report, Sandack had a conversation on social media with a woman, and later they communicated

BUSINESS Monsanto, Bayer officials defend proposed $66B merger

By MARY CLARE JALONICK The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Top officials for Monsanto and Bayer defended their proposed $66 billion merger before skeptical senators on Tuesday, insisting that the deal would lead to greater investments in technology that could help American farmers.

Monsanto, the American seed and weed-killer, and Bayer, the German medicine and farm-chemical maker, responded to concerns from Iowa Sen. Charles Grassley, the Republican chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Grassley warned that consolidation and competition in the U.S. seed and agrochemical industry could hurt American farmers who are already dealing with an economic downturn.

“I’m afraid this consolidation wave has become a tsunami,” Grassley said as the hearing opened.

After months of negotiations, St. Louis-based Monsanto Co. last week accepted an offer from Leverkusen, Germany-based Bayer AG that will pay $57 billion to Monsanto shareholders and assume $9 billion in Monsanto debt. The deal combines two of the six U.S. and European companies that dominate the agrochemical market, and would create a global agricultural and chemical giant with a broad array of products.

Robb Fraley, executive vice president and chief technology officer of Monsanto, and Jim Blome, president and CEO of Bayer CropScience North America, both testified that the com-

“This type of change enables more innovation and delivers better products to the farm even faster,” Fraley said.

“Farmers are best served when companies invest more in new technologies and accelerate the pace of their (research and development), which in turn spurs robust competition.”

Blome noted that Monsanto has

a greater presence in North America while Bayer’s business is greater outside of North America.

“Monsanto is a perfect match to Bayer’s agricultural business – combining complementary skills with limited geographic overlap,” Blome said.

Grassley pointed to lower crop prices and higher seed prices, saying farmers are under “tremendous pressure” as the agriculture economy has slowed in

the last couple of years.

The Iowa senator said antitrust regulators should closely watch consolidation of the agricultural biotech industry and coordinate oversight between agencies. He said the Federal Trade Commission is currently reviewing another merger between Syngenta AG and the China National Chemical Corp. and the Justice Department is looking at the merger of Dow Chemical and DuPont.

“The innovations of the companies in this room today have helped the world reach productivity levels which ease fears over meeting the long-term demands of our growing global population,” Grassley said. “However, when does the size of companies and concentration in the market reach the tipping point, so much that a market becomes anti-competitive?”

Executives from Syngenta, Dow AgroSciences and DuPont similarly defended their own merger plans at the hearing, saying that combined resources would help spur better innovations.

Grassley said that the China National Chemical Corp. declined to testify.

Republican Sens. Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Orrin Hatch of Utah said the companies are facing too many government regulations and that is one reason for the mergers.

“No one this side of the dais should be surprised that they have to go through this to survive,” Tillis said.

Democrats were less supportive.

“You have to look at it from the consumer’s point of view, and whether that is good policy,” Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin said.

LOS ANGELES – Jared Leto is set to star as eccentric pop art icon Andy Warhol in an upcoming biopic.

Leto’s representative has confirmed a Hollywood Reporter story on the project.

Terence Winter is set to write the screenplay. Winter is a former writer for HBO’s “The Sopranos” and was nominated for an Oscar for his screenplay for Martin Scorsese’s, “The Wolf of Wall Street.”

Leto has a history of taking on challenging roles. He won an Academy Award in 2014 for his portrayal of a transgender woman with AIDS in “Dallas Buyers Club.”

Maggie Smith asks Jimmy Kimmel where her Emmy is

AP file photo

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt arrive at the premiere of “Ocean’s Thirteen” on June 5, 2007, in Los Angeles, Calif. Jolie Pitt has filed for divorce from Pitt.

Angelina Jolie files for divorce from Pitt ‘for health of the family’ NEW YORK – Angelina Jolie Pitt has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, bringing an end to what began as the world’s most tabloid headline-generating romance before morphing into a glamorous engine of family and philanthropy.

Jolie Pitt, 41, cited “irreconcilable difference” in divorce papers filed Monday in Los Angeles. She is seeking physical custody of their six children, with visitation rights for Pitt.

An attorney for Jolie Pitt, Robert Offer, said Tuesday that her decision to divorce was made “for the health of the family.” The filing dated the couple’s separation to last Thursday.

“I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids. I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time,” Pitt said in a statement to People.

Mark Vincent Kaplan, a veteran divorce attorney who was Kevin Federline’s attorney in his divorce from Britney Spears and has handled several high-profile cases, reviewed the filing at the AP’s request.

“There is no indication on the face of the petition filed by Ms. Jolie that there is a prenuptial agreement, or that if there is a prenup, she is asking the court to consider whether or not to invalidate it,” Kaplan said.

Though together for 12 years, Pitt and Jolie Pitt – known as “Brangelina” – only wed in August 2014.

Their children are 15-year-old Maddox, 12-year-old Pax, 11-year-old Zahara, 10-year-old Shiloh, and 8-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

This is the second marriage for Pitt, 52, who previously wed Jennifer Aniston. It’s the third for Jolie Pitt, who was previously married to Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.

LOS ANGELES – “Downton Abbey” star Dame Maggie Smith wants Emmy host Jimmy Kimmel to show her where her Emmy is.

Kimmel joked during his Emmy monologue Sunday night that stars had to be present to win under what he called “the Maggie Smith rule.” The British actress had been nominated nine times for Emmys and won three without ever showing up.

When Smith won again on Sunday night, Kimmel took the statuette from presenter Minnie Driver and said, “We’re not mailing this to her. Maggie, if you want this, it will be in the lost and found.”

The 81-year-old Smith responded Monday with a message on the Masterpiece Theater Twitter account, saying “If Mr. Kimmel could please direct me to the lost and found office I will be on the next flight.”

Bourdain separates from wife Ottavia after 9 years

NEW YORK – Celebrity chef and TV personality Anthony Bourdain and his MMA fighter wife, Ottavia Busia, are separating after nine years of marriage.

A representative for Bourdain has confirmed reports of the split, but didn’t offer any comment.

Bourdain and Busia were married in 2007 and their daughter, Ariane, was born the same year.

Busia commented on her marriage to Bourdain in a column for Lena Dunham’s Lenny site last month, writing that Bourdain “half-

jokes that he married Sophia Loren but ended up with Jean-Claude Van Damme.”

The jujitsu-trained fighter said she’s not the same person that she was and credited her training for the change.

Neil Young is joining the protest against the four-state Dakota Access pipeline with his new song, “Indian Givers.”

The music video for the song shows clips of Young driving his car and footage of the recent anti-pipeline protests, including a man who chained himself to construction equipment last week.

Hundreds, sometimes thousands, of people from around the country have gathered at an encampment north of the Standing Rock Indian Reservation in North Dakota over the past weeks to protest the construction of the four-state, $3.8 billion pipeline.

Study backs germ-fighting gel

Researchers create promising antibiotic to tackle kids’ ear infections

By LAURAN NEERGAARD The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Parents know the frustration of trying to get that gunky pink antibiotic into a tot screaming from an ear infection. A one-time squirt of special ear drops one day might replace that ordeal.

It’s only been tried in animals so far – chinchillas, to be exact. But researchers report Sept. 14 an antibiotic gel coated the animals’ eardrums and slowly seeped inside to do its job for a week, clearing up an infection that usually requires a 10-day course of oral antibiotics.

“It’s always a full-contact martial art” to get youngsters to swallow today’s liquid antibiotic several times a day, said senior researcher Dr. Daniel Kohane of Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. A pediatrician and anesthesiologist, he studies novel ways to deliver drugs – and says when he describes the experimental ear gel, “people with kids get this right away.”

Easier dosing is just one goal. And importantly, if the approach pans out when tested in children, it also could help prevent development of antibiotic-resistant infections. Too often, parents stop treatment once their youngster starts feeling better, allowing lingering bacteria to bounce back stronger.

“If we can deliver the right antibiotic directly to the middle ear using a one-time dose, it is likely that we will have more effective therapy, with fewer side effects,” said Duke University pediatric infectious disease specialist Dr. Coleen Cunningham, who wasn’t involved with the new research. “Further studies need to be done before we know if that is a

The problem is there’s too much to read and too many

possibility, but the reported study is very encouraging.”

Middle ear infections – what doctors call otitis media – prompt at least 12 million visits to the doctor each year, and they’re the most common reason for prescribing antibiotics to children.

Doctors long have sought a topical

solution. Yet the eardrum has a tough outer layer that keeps drugs from penetrating. Until now, antibiotic ear drops have proved useful for middle ear infections only in children who have ear tubes that can route the drug past that barrier, Kohane said.

Now his team has packaged an antibiotic together with chemicals used

drug combinations for doctors to choose the best option every time.

Enter a Microsoft Research machine-learning project, dubbed Hanover, that aims to ingest all the papers and help predict which drugs and which combinations are most effective, according to the company.

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science

University’s Knight Cancer Institute are working with Hanover’s architect, Hoifung Poon, to use the system to find drug combinations effective in fighting acute myeloid leukemia, an often-fatal cancer where treatment hasn’t improved much in decades.

Cancer is caused by genetic mutations that make cells grow and multiply out of

in skin-penetrating drugs to temporarily open channels in the eardrum’s outer surface so the germ-killing ingredient could get inside.

A doctor would squirt the drug deep into the ear canal, where it would harden into a gel, sort of like extra earwax, to stay in place as it slowly released the antibiotic. The experimental drug doesn’t contain the antibiotic used in that common pink liquid but a newer one called ciprofloxacin.

Researchers gave the antibiotic gel to 10 chinchillas – they have a human-like ear structure and hearing range – infected with a common bacteria. All 10 animals had their ear infections cured within a week, compared with five of eight chinchillas given regular ciprofloxacin ear drops as a control, they reported in the journal Science Translational Medicine.

Researchers couldn’t detect the antibiotic in the animals’ blood, suggesting it wouldn’t cause typical antibiotic side effects such as diarrhea.

Moreover, the gel melted away within three weeks, and the chinchillas’ eardrums appeared normal afterward.

Kohane hopes to begin initial human studies in about a year.

Duke’s Cunningham cautioned researchers will need to study whether an antibiotic gel causes short-term hearing issues of its own.

Another question is whether the gel would make a thicker human eardrum as permeable as an animal’s, and if there’s any resulting toxicity, added otolaryngologist Dr. Diego Preciado of Children’s National Health System, where researchers are working on a different approach for topical delivery of an ear-infection drug.

But “overall, incredibly promising work,” Preciado concluded.

control. Better ability to find those specific mutations has enabled new types of drugs that target the disease more precisely, raising the odds of survival. There are more than 800 medicines and vaccines in clinical trials to treat cancer, according to a 2015 report by Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America.

Francis S. Collins

Director of the National Institutes of Health, said in a briefing for reporters.

Some of the changes have been in the works for years. But the effort was hastened by Vice President Biden’s threat in June to cut off research funding to medical institutions that don’t report the results of their research. Biden wants more information disseminated more quickly to aid research in the Cancer Moonshot that he is leading.

Collins noted a 2014 review of 400 research studies showed that 30 percent had not reported their results to clinicaltrials.gov, the government repository for such information, four years after completion. “That’s clearly unacceptable,” Collins said.

Under a 2008 rule, federally funded

researchers are supposed to deposit their results within a year of a clinical trial’s completion. Another examination of 51 academic medical centers revealed 43 percent of their clinical trial results were not published two years after completion.

Biden said fewer “than five percent of cancer patients enroll in a clinical trial, often because patients and doctors don’t know what trials are available.” About 31 percent of the open trials on clinicaltrials.gov are for research related to cancer.

Beginning on Jan. 18, researchers in most studies of therapies and devices funded by NIH or regulated by the Food and Drug Administra-

tion will have 90 days to come into compliance with the new rules. For some universities that have been lackadaisical about following existing policies, that may require some effort. The NIH gave out nearly $24.5 billion in research grants in fiscal year 2015.

The new rules issued by the Department of Health and Human Services expand the kinds of research that must be registered, demand quicker registration and require more information about results, the participants involved and how the research was conducted. The government also wants more information on research that failed to achieve its goals, which, Collins noted, often can be valuable to future studies, and therapies that have not yet been approved by the FDA. Collins acknowledged the government cannot ethically halt ongoing clinical trials as an enforcement technique, but he said NIH intends to be vigilant about blocking future grants for institutions that do not comply.

Biden also announced improvements to trials.cancer.gov that will allow searchers to more easily find trials for specific cancers and types of people.

The government unveiled new policies Friday designed to make findings from clinical trials of therapies and devices more widely available, warning it would block future funding for universities and other institutions that do not comply.

The updated rules are designed to encourage more participation in research studies and to spread the results of those efforts faster and more completely to the patients, physicians and clinical investigators who need them. Officials also described them as an effort to enforce the pact with volunteers in medical experiments that they or others someday will benefit from their participation in research.

“We, as a community, have a disappointing record of making those results available,” Francis S. Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, said in a briefing for reporters. “This is about maintaining the trust that we have with participants in clinical trials who volunteer to take part in these efforts with the expectation that it will add to the body of knowledge.”

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – A fair-minded attitude will be necessary this year. An open heart and a desire to compromise will help you get what you want. Set your strategy and offer your services, but make it clear what you want. Honesty will help you keep moving forward without pitfalls.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Look at the big picture and refuse to let your emotions take charge, which could cause you to damage your reputation. Think before you do something you’ll regret.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Check out new prospects and explore possibilities that will encourage philosophical or spiritual growth. Live

life instead of standing on the sidelines while it passes you by.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Uncertainty will surface if you let your emotions take control.

Use your skills and knowledge to help you overcome any obstacle. Trust in the facts, not in rumors.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Open up about your feelings, and listen to what others have to say. Your relationship with both personal and business associates will be challenged if you exaggerate.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – The way you present who you are and what you have to offer is important. Knowledge and expertise alone will not do the trick. Update your look to impress others.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – A chance to turn something you love doing into a profitable endeavor looks promising. Set up meetings and plan your strategy to ensure a successful launch. Celebrate with a loved one.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Playing games with someone’s emotions will not help you get your way. Try to keep the peace and figure out how to get what you want without upsetting others. Diplomacy will be required.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – A financial matter will leave you uncertain regarding your choices and current situation. Look at the long-term effects of following your heart and pursuing your passion.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Someone will take advantage of you if you are too gullible. Look

at the variables involved before you choose to shoulder responsibilities that someone else will end up taking credit for.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Listen carefully and read between the lines. Deception is apparent when dealing with a friend or a young person in your life. Ask direct questions to find out exactly what is going on.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Expand your interests and open up your house for meetings and activities that will lead to new friendships and opportunities. Generosity will help you advance.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Helping someone or participating in a cause you believe in will encourage others to respect you. Taking action will show others you mean business. Romance is encouraged.

30 More companies reward healthy behavior Dear Dr. K: My employer has started offering employees financial rewards for weight loss. I’m skeptical. Does this kind of financial incentive really work?

Dear Reader: Offering financial incentives to employees for making healthy lifestyle changes is increasingly common.

These days, nearly 80 percent of large employers do it. There are many ways to offer incentives, and doctors and economists still are learning what works best.

Some experiments have been successful.

For example, employees at two large companies randomly were selected to receive up to $800 to quit smoking. They were three times more likely to quit than employees encouraged to quit but not given money for doing so.

Other experiments have not worked as well. Employees in another company were selected at random to receive a bonus of $550 to lose weight. They were no more successful than employees not offered a bonus.

The timing of when the bonus is given appears to affect behavioral change.

People who receive payments separately (not lumped in with their paycheck) and repeatedly (every month rather than at the end of the trial period) are more responsive to incentives.

How the incentive is provided also may affect a person’s response. For example, over three months, employees in one company were given a positive incentive to walk: $2 every day they walked 7,000 steps.

Others were given a negative incentive for not walking. They received a “bank account” that contained all the money they might earn if they walked 7,000 steps each day. They then had $2 taken away every day they did not walk 7,000 steps. Both types of incentive worked better than no incentive at all. But the negative incentive – losing money you could have won – was a

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff more powerful stimulus to regular walking.

There is some evidence incentives work better when offered to groups of people, rather than on an individual basis. These programs usually involve financial incentives that are tied to the group’s success.

When an individual fails to meet his or her personal goal, it reduces the bonus all other members of the group will receive. If you fail to meet your personal goal, the others in the group suffer a financial hit – and they will know you are the reason for it.

It’s a powerful incentive not to miss your personal goal.

Even if it turns out financial incentives generally do help people to adopt a healthy lifestyle, it remains to be seen how lasting this change in behavior will be. And it also remains unclear whether the savings to employers from reduced medical expenses due to healthier lifestyles will be greater than the money spent on the incentives themselves.

But as far as I’m concerned, it’s worth a look. Our lives are filled with incentives and disincentives designed to encourage actions that benefit both us and the people around us. From traffic lights to auto insurance premiums that drop if we avoid accidents or traffic tickets, our society tries to channel our behavior. I see nothing wrong with it – if it works.

Dear Abby: DEAR ABBY I am 23, married for four Jeanne years and have Phillips three children.

My wife and I always have had strong sex drives. I recently accepted a dream job that pays very well. On the downside, I work 12 to 14 hours a day, and by the time I get home I’m exhausted.

I love my wife very much and want to meet her needs, but she wants sex every night. I’m afraid if I tell her I have to save my energy for my job, it will cause problems. How can I get around this? – Overworked In Arkansas Dear Overworked: The shortest path to a goal is a direct line. One thing more important in a marriage than sex is communication.

Talk to your wife. If you don’t, she might think after three children you find her less attractive.

Sex is most satisfying when both partners enjoy it. To some women, their standard of living is at least as important as frequent sex.

It’s time to find out if the woman you married is one of them. (If she’s not, you might have to change jobs.)

Dear Abby: How do I tell my ex I no longer want to baby-sit her son? The boy is not mine.

When we lived together she found a job, and I told her I would watch her son on weekends while she was working.

I moved out of the apartment we shared a year ago. Between working nights at my job and her son having special needs and requiring full-time attention, I’m exhausted and losing patience. Is there a graceful way to bow out? – Getting Stressed Out In Virginia Dear Getting Stressed: Probably not. However, because you feel the responsibility has become more than you are able to handle, you need to tell your ex she needs to make other arrangements for a sitter for her son. Because your relationship with her ended a year ago, I doubt she’ll be surprised. But do not expect her to welcome the news or like it.

Dear Abby: I can’t wait until election season is over. One side of my family is liberal; the other side is conservative. At my request, they don’t argue when we are all together.

There are occasional disagreements, but fortunately, they never escalate.

The problem is, when I spend time with any of them separately I am lectured nonstop about the “evils” of the other side. They don’t quit. I just want to scream, “Shut up! Shut up! I don’t care.” I am at the point I no longer want to vote. I don’t know what to do. There’s no way I can avoid my family completely.

Please advise. – “Shut Up” In New Mexico Dear S.U.: Please don’t allow your family drama to stop you from voting. Try this: The next time your relatives inject politics into the conversation, smile, look them in the eye and say, “Let’s talk about something pleasant, shall we?” and change the subject.

The main gym was closed,all the windows were sealed and you could hear a basketball bouncing in there. Also a bunch of people actually saw him. It was all anyone could talk about” – Marian Central student Kate Thompson about a story that the Bulls’ Jimmy Butler reportedly was working out at Marian Central’s gym Tuesday.

What to watch MLB: Cincinnati at Cubs, 7 p.m., WGN John Lackey (9-8, 3.42 ERA) faces the Reds’ Robert Stephenson (2-1, 4.97). The Reds are batting .288 against Lackey this season, with 19 hits in 181/3 innings.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Huntley outside hitter Ally Dion stepped to the service line in the third set and didn’t hold back.

With the scored tied at 5 with Prairie Ridge, Dion’s aggression and powerful jump serve ignited the Red Raiders and knocked the Wolves back.

“I was trying to be as aggressive as possible and get momentum for our team,” Dion said. “We did not want to lose.”

Dion served seven straight points until one finally hit the net.

By the end of her run, the 5-foot-10 senior had recorded four aces. With Dion providing the spark, the Raiders pushed their lead to as many as eight points on their way to a 25-22, 22-25, 2519 Fox Valley Conference victory.

The win moves the Raiders (7-1 overall, 7-1 FVC) into a first-place tie with Crystal Lake Central heading into the second half of the conference schedule. The teams play each other Thursday.

Prairie Ridge (7-6, 6-2) has lost six straight matches after a 7-0 start and fell to second place.

“That was the momentum-changer,” Huntley coach Karen Naymola said of Dion’s dominant run. “After that, you could kind of see we weren’t playing so tense. It gave us a lot more confidence.”

Dion finished with five aces, nine kills and 14 digs, sophomore Julia Johnson led the attack with 10 kills, freshman Taylor Jakubowski had 24 assists and led the defense with 17 digs, and sophomore Sarah Zayas added 14 digs.

“I think that was probably the greatest team effort we had all season.” said Naymola, who pointed to the play of Caitlin Thorelius (six blocks) and Marissa Deem (five blocks) as another difference in the third set. “Our bench was phenomenal, and every single player found a way to contribute.”

Prairie Ridge trailed 16-11 in the second set but came all the way back to grab its first lead, 18-17, and force a third set. But after Dion’s run, Prairie

Ridge was unable to recover.

“We just couldn’t get out of that rotation,” Wolves coach Stefanie Otto said. “We mentally take ourselves out when we get like that. It’s about getting better. We’ve done a lot of talking about things mentally and training the mind – thinking about what it takes to be a good teammate.”

Prairie Ridge sophomore setter Jayden Otto had 28 assists, three blocks and five digs, Genesis Sheridan had a team-high nine kills, Emily Baudin added eight kills, and Mackenzie Garis and Erin McNeil each had nine digs.

“We fought so hard,” Thorelius said. “I think we were more loud than [Prairie Ridge] and more positive. We kept energy the whole time no matter what. ... No matter if we lost one, we got up from it. I think it’s the best we’ve worked as a team all season.”

Inside Boys Soccer ATHLETE OF THE WEEK NOAH MELICK Jacobs, jr. F Melick scored eight goals and added an assist in a 3-1 week for the Golden Eagles.

NORTHWEST HERALD POWER RANKINGS (Through Monday) 1. McHenry (7-0-2, 1-0 Fox Valley Conference): The Warriors needed a second-half goal from Jason Mendez to start conference play with a victory over winless Cary-Grove, but it was enough to keep their unbeaten start going.

Nonconference wins over Antioch and Freeport, plus a draw with Barrington, gave the Warriors second place at the Freeport Invitational over the weekend. Mendez and Connor Uhl each scored twice in the three-game tournament.

2. Crystal Lake South (8-2-1): The Gators won a pair of nonconference games to advance to the final of their PepsiCo Showdown bracket.

The semifinal win over Carmel required a three-goal second-half comeback on the back of two of the Gators’ leaders, Nikolas Getzinger and Andrew Grabowski, who each scored twice in the 4-3 overtime win. The Gators seem to

Proud Sponsor of Athlete of the Week be rolling, having not lost in more than three weeks, but now begin the FVC portion of their schedule.

3. Harvard (7-0-1, 4-0 Kishwaukee River Conference): The Hornets only played once the past week but remained undefeated with a 6-0 win over Richmond-Burton. They are one of two unbeaten teams left in the area but have an interesting week ahead. A big KRC matchup with Johnsburg was pushed from Tuesday to Saturday, and Thursday the Hornets have their second meeting with Woodstock, a team that took them to penalties on the opening day of the season.

4. Huntley (7-3, 1-0 FVC): The Red Raiders won two nonconference games in the PepsiCo Showdown last week to reach the final of their bracket. Four different players scored for Huntley in the two games, with Luke Loprieno

scoring twice along with goals from Adam Kaster, Zack Whitaker and Aaron Ruffner. The Red Raiders have a busy week, playing four games, two in conference, in six days.

5. Jacobs (5-3-3, 1-0 FVC): The Golden Eagles opened conference play with a dominant 7-1 win over last year’s FVC Fox champion Crystal Lake Central, led by four goals from Melick, two from Austin Snobel and one from Jacob Sabella. Over the weekend, the Golden Eagles went 2-1 at the Hononegah Invitational. The Golden Eagles will be tested this week, facing Huntley and Crystal Lake South in the span of six days, with a weekend nonconference match against DeKalb in between.

NOTEWORTHY King back: McHenry goalkeeper Jake King, a 2015 All-Area First-Team selection, recently returned to action after missing the first four games of the season. King was sitting for precautionary reasons, “just a little dinged up so wanted to rest him and be safe,” coach Tony Caruso said in a text. It also provided a chance for backup Jeff Adamson to get meaningful time, Caruso said.

McHenry, still undefeated, has won all five games King has played since returning, and

having their No. 1 keeper back has helped the Warriors run their shutout streak to seven games. In addition to not allowing a goal, King has averaged 3.8 saves a game since returning.

THIS WEEK’S TOP MATCHES Jacobs at Huntley, 6:30 p.m. Thursday Two of the Fox Valley Conference’s most potent offenses are led by speedy forwards on both sides, Noah Melick at Jacobs and Aaron Ruffner at Huntley. The Golden Eagles won, 3-2, last year.

Harvard at Johnsburg, 1 p.m. Saturday Originally scheduled for Tuesday, the top two teams in the KRC meet for the first time this season. Both enter the contest undefeated in KRC play.

PepsiCo Showdown finals, Sunday at Illinois Tech in Chicago Two local teams reached the finals of their respective brackets in the 60-plus team PepsiCo Showdown tournament. Huntley will face Lincoln-Way West in the final of the Buddy’s Helpers Bracket at 11:30 a.m. Sunday, and Crystal Lake Central will take on Addison Trail at 1 p.m. in the final of the Gatorade Bracket.

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com LAKE FOREST – Bears quarterback Jay Cutler has a sprained right thumb that doesn’t need surgery right now, but John Fox wouldn’t rule it out entirely when the Bears’ coach met the media Tuesday at Halas Hall. Fox also wouldn’t say whether Cutler will miss Sunday night’s game in Jay Cutler Dallas.

“We’ll just take it day to day, and Brian Hoyer stepped in, and I thought did a pretty good job,” he said. “We’ll evaluate that tomorrow and split up practice as need be.”

Adam Jahns of the Sun-Times reported Cutler originally suffered ligament damage in the throwing thumb against the Texans in Week 1. He played through it and then aggravated the injury when he was strip-sacked against the Eagles in the third quarter Monday night.

Cutler stayed in the game and threw an interception on the next drive, his final play of the 29-14 loss. Cutler said after the game he had trouble gripping the ball and “couldn’t get as much as I wanted” on the pass that floated to Eagles linebacker Nigel Bradham.

Fox wouldn’t say whether Cutler injured his thumb further in Houston, referring to the injury he suffered in 2011, which required surgery.

“I think Jay probably originally hurt his thumb five years ago. But that’d be no, he practiced every play of practice last week,” he said, adding that the thumb “didn’t appear” to affect Cutler in practice.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported the Bears are “preparing for a lengthy absence” for Cutler.

“It’s hard for me to give timelines,” Fox said. “We’ll evaluate tomorrow.

We’ve got practice tomorrow, we’re on a short week already. If Jay’s ready to do it, fine. If not, we’ll go with Brian Hoyer.”

The Bears will head into Dallas with an 0-2 record. In relief Monday night, Hoyer completed 9 of 12 passes for 78 yards against Philadelphia. For Houston last season, Hoyer threw 19 touchdowns and seven interceptions, but tossed four interceptions in a playoff loss. The 30-year-old, eighth-year veteran has 26 career starts.

Cutler has missed at least one game in each of the past six seasons. He was wearing a cast on his right hand Monday night and missed the final six games of the 2011 season when he last injured his right thumb.

LB Trevathan to have thumb surgery; Houston likely done

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com LAKE FOREST – In addition to Jay Cutler, who could miss time with a sprained right thumb, the Bears may be without five other starter-caliber players when they travel to Dallas to play the Cowboys on Sunday night in Week 3.

Starting inside linebacker Danny Trevathan has a thumb sprain that will require surgery Wednesday morning, coach John Fox said, adding that the injury is not expected to be season-ending. Jonathan Anderson would be “next man up” to replace Trevathan, but the Bears also could consider fourth-round draft pick Nick Kwiatkoski, who has yet to be active.

According to multiple reports, Lamarr Houston tore an ACL in the loss. Houston hasn’t been a starter, but he did lead the Bears in sacks last season, and the team already is without Pernell McPhee at outside linebacker. Sam Acho would get more reps Danny with Houston out of Trevathan the lineup, and the Bears also could use Christian Jones at outside linebacker.

Houston counts $6.99 million against the team’s cap next year, so it’s fair to wonder whether Phil Emery’s big free-agent signing from 2014 has played his final game as a Bear.

Eddie Goldman has a high ankle sprain, according to the Chicago Tribune, which is expected to keep him out for four weeks. He was carted off the field Monday night after being active in the trenches. Will Sutton is the team’s backup nose tackle.

Running back Ka’Deem Carey has an injured hamstring. Rookie Jordan Howard had 22 yards on three carries in his first NFL action Monday.

Bryce Callahan and Adrian Amos are both in the concussion protocol.

Chris Prosinski, who replaced Amos, has a bruised calf. Rookie safety Deon Bush was inactive for the first two games and DeAndre Houston-Carson has been playing special teams.

Sherrick McManis replaced Callahan at the nickel corner position.

The Bears might get Kyle Fuller back next week, which could cause some shuffling at the position.

After a season opener during which no Bears suffered any injuries, they snowballed Monday, adding to a disappointing 0-2 start.

“I’ve always been of the belief that tough times don’t last, tough people do, and injuries are a part of that,” Fox said. “We started the season without a couple of corners, we’ve got some young guys that have gotten an opportunity that it seems that they’re learning from – I think in some cases have excelled in – so we’ll figure it out.

“I like our roster, I like our choices, and we’ll do everything we can to get everybody ready for Dallas.”

McHenry County College baseball coach Jared Wacker needed a left-handed-hitting outfielder with speed and knew right where to look.

Wacker received a commitment from Prairie Ridge senior Zach Teegen on Tuesday. Teegen was impressed with t h e p r o g r e s s t h e Zach Teegen Scots have made in recent seasons, especially their NJCAA World Series appearance last spring.

“Coach Wacker’s built a fantastic program. He’s a really good leader,” Teegen said. “I can’t wait to play for him and do everything I can to improve the team and do my part.”

Teegen (6-foot-1, 200 pounds) throws right-handed and played outfield for Marian Central last season, then with the Pro Player Canes’ 17U team over the summer. One of his Canes teammates, Huntley third baseman Jeff Heinrich, also committed to MCC. Wacker liked the qualities Teegen will bring to the Scots. Teegen hit

.303 with 17 RBIs, seven doubles and one home run last season. He stole four bases and had an on-base percentage of .367.

“One of the things we were looking for in this recruiting class was a left-handed bat in the outfield,” Wacker said. “[Teegen] has a good skill set as a power-speed guy. Most of our outfielders are right-handed.

We wanted somebody to balance that out. We like hitters who have versatility, who can run a little bit and swing a little bit.”

Teegen said Wacker recently contacted him about joining the Scots.

“I kind of fell in love with it right away,” Teegen said. “Everything about the program is so strong. I’ve already learned so much from coach [Tom] Kruse at Marian. I want to stay home and play ball here.”

Wacker also said the Scots will get Huntley first baseman Noah Konie and Crystal Lake Central right-handed pitcher Anthony Novy next year.

Konie hit .257 and drove in 17 runs for the 25-15 Red Raiders, who won a Class 4A sectional championship.

Konie’s plate discipline was remarkable, as he drew 22 walks and had a .447 on-base percentage.

Novy was 3-1 with a 2.05 ERA in 41 innings for the Tigers.

6 WHITE SOX

Teammates OK with Abreu’s comments

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

PHILADELPHIA – Jose Abreu’s teammates understand where their slugger and one of the White Sox’s star players was coming from Monday when he questioned his team’s “desire” after they got manhandled – again – by the Kansas City Royals.

“It’s probably how most guys feel when you’re on a team that is out of contention,” catcher Alex Avila said Tuesday. “It’s not surprising. He’s upset we didn’t play better this year.”

The Sox went into a two-game interleague set against the Phillies on Tuesday with a 72-78 record, playing out the string of meaningless September games and left to pursue individual goals while digesting what will be, barring a fantastic finish, a fourth straight losing season. For Abreu, it’s his third losing season in a row since he signed a $68 million contract after defecting from Cuba.

Like everyone else in the Sox organization, Abreu is disappointed. And exasperated.

“There is frustration because it’s the same as last year – we thought we had the pieces and would go further,”

outfielder Adam Eaton said. “Kansas

City takes three of four from us (and 14 of 19 this season) in the fashion they did and he’s probably frustrated.

As well as everyone else.’’

Eaton, arguably the Sox’s top allaround position player this season, said “there needs to be more desire here” in the context of, if the job isn’t getting done, you need to push harder.

“There needs to be more ‘We’re going to reach our destination in any way, shape or form, it doesn’t matter what type of circumstances or players are here,’ ” Eaton said.

Desire “should always come up on a team that doesn’t perform to expectations,” said Avila, a former All-Star who played on four postseason teams in Detroit. “If it doesn’t, there’s something wrong there.

“Execution and preparation before a game, talent on a team and also desire,” Avila said, “all those things have to be looked at on a team that is expected to win but doesn’t. If it’s not, there’s something wrong there.

That’s not a story or an issue – that’s reality.’’

Abreu was asked to follow up on his brief comment Monday that the Royals’ “desire to win” set them apart from the Sox. He had emphatically

said “no” when asked whether the Sox had the same desire.

Manager Robin Ventura, who talked to Abreu about what was said, reiterated Abreu was talking about himself, not his teammates.

“What we talked about yesterday was about me,” Abreu said through translator Billy Russo on Tuesday.

“I don’t have anything more to add.

That’s it.”

Shortly after talking to reporters in the visitors clubhouse at Citizens Bank Park, Abreu, speaking in Spanish, talked to several Latin teammates in an intense tone. Then he took his bat to the indoor cage to hit.

The bottom line? Abreu is tired of the losing.

“I think it’s about everything,” he said. “I want to make the point again I was talking about me, not everybody else.”

“I’ve read what was written,” Ventura said, “but actually talking to him, for me it’s more about it’s a long season and he’s probably talking about himself, whether he didn’t run out a ball or he’s just tired.

“We’re getting close to the end and he’s grinding through it. I think that’s more of it than anything else.”

PHILLIES 7, WHITE SOX 6

Another tough outing for Shields in loss to Phillies

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

a three-run ninth put the tying run in scoring position but Anderson grounded to short against Michael Mariot (first save).

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

PHILADELPHIA – James Shields continues to struggle through an upand-down season – mostly down.

The Philadelphia Phillies jumped on the White Sox’s 34-year-old righthander with Odubel Herrera’s 15th homer in the first inning and knocked him around for seven runs (six earned) on nine hits and three walks over 51/3 innings Tuesday in a 7-6 victory.

It took Shields (5-18, 5.98 ERA) 106 pitches to get through it.

Shields struggled, but the Sox did not play a clean game behind him, either. Shortstop Tim Anderson was charged with an error on a liner off his glove and couldn’t run down what looked like a catchable foul ball despite a long run. First baseman Jose Abreu allowed a ball to scoot under his glove for a base hit and left fielder Melky Cabrera let a ball fall in front of him for a hit after getting a late jump.

“These guys play hard and sometimes they make spectacular plays so

CONSISTENT CABRERA

Cabrera had gone hitless in his past two games, so he was due. Cabrera, who hit a three-run homer in the third inning against Phils right-hander Jake Thompson, had gone without a hit for three straight games once – from May 28 to 30.

Cabrera has 12 homers and 76 RBIs and is batting .296.

The Phillies’ Tommy Joseph scores past White Sox catcher Omar Narvaez on a single by Maikel Franco during the third inning Tuesday in Philadelphia.

I don’t get upset when that happens,’’ Shields said. “I needed to make better pitches.’’

Offensively, Omar Narvaez was thrown out at third trying to take an

extra base on an infield single and Leury Garcia was throw out stealing for the first out of the seventh when the Sox were trailing by four runs.

Adam Eaton’s two-run double in

The Sox fell to 9-10 in interleague play this season. Their 200-162 record all-time (46-51 under manager Robin Ventura) is the fourth-best in baseball behind the Yankees, Red Sox and Angels.

Ventura, who played in the NL with the Dodgers and Mets, learned to like the NL game because “it was a fun thing for your team that everybody was involved.”

Cubs pitcher Jon Lester watches his two-out, RBI double off the Reds’ Josh Smith, scoring David Ross, during the second inning Tuesday at Wrigley Field.

That’s what starter Jason Hammel talked about Monday night after beating the Reds in the opener of this three-game series.

“We’re still not done yet,” Hammel said, echoing teammates sentiments.

“We’ve still got to wrap up home-field advantage. And continue to play good baseball. There’s really no reason to let up.

“I think guys might have been a little tired about the late festivities and whatever, having a fun time after the clinch [Friday]. But it’s time to get locked mentally back in.”

If anybody has looked mentally

locked in since July it’s Lester (18-4).

Tuesday’s start was his seventh consecutive in which he allowed one or zero runs. In fact, when he gave up a two-out run on a single and triple in the fifth Tuesday, it snapped a 21-inning scoreless streak dating to Sept. 2.

Maybe that’s why the sound of 40,000 gasps in harmony could be heard as soon as Votto drilled a one-hopper back at the mound that struck Lester on the inside of his wrist, just above the protection of his glove.

After a visit from the trainer and manager, he shook it off, stayed in the game, and struck out the next batter,

CUBS NOTES

Strop close to returning, completing power bullpen

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

CHICAGO – If the Kansas City Royals’ deep reserve of shutdown power relievers inspired the blueprint for modern-day World Series runs, then consider Cubs brass the contractors staring at the picture and ordering materials.

A simulated game by setup man Pedro Strop went well enough Tuesday that his return from the disabled list has been scheduled for Friday’s series opener against the Cardinals. And the Cubs have mapped out regular appearances for him over the final 10 games to get him sharp again by playoff time.

“That’s very important to us,” manager Joe Maddon said.

Of course, in the next breath Maddon pointed out one of his bigger surprises of the season: The Cubs performed well for more than three weeks without both Strop and setup ace Hector Rondon, the former closer.

Strop hasn’t pitched since Aug. 10 because of a knee injury and then Pedro Strop a groin injury suffered during rehab. A triceps strain sidelined Rondon from Aug. 16 to Sept. 5.

The Cubs went 15-5 over that stretch, adding four games to their division lead over the second-place Cardinals.

Fifteen of those games were decided by three or fewer runs, including eight one-run decisions.

“That really surprised me,” Maddon said. “I’m not denigrating the group that did well. I’m just saying I really thought they were that important to us being able to win 90-plus games this year.”

What it says about the Cubs’ bullpen if both are healthy through October could be profound. Rondon might have been the best closer in the National League before moving to the setup role when triple-digit-throwing lefty Aroldis Chapman was acquired at the trade deadline; Strop was the primary setup man.

And if power-stuff relievers Justin Grimm and Carl Edwards Jr. continue to perform as they have, the Cubs can stack their bullpen deeper with reliable power than they could last year – rival-

ing any of the handful of playoff pens in franchise history.

“The acquisition of Aroldis, right now you can really understand how important it was,” Maddon said.

Tidbits: Maddon said team president Theo Epstein recently brought up “out of a clear blue sky” the idea of taking days off to recharge, the same way the team has done with players. “It’s not crazy by any means,” said Maddon, who doesn’t foresee the need anytime soon.

“Right now I don’t know how I would do it and I don’t know what I would do with my self.”

• Outfielder Jorge Soler (tightness in side), who expected to be available as a pinch-hitter Tuesday, was held back one more day. He hasn’t played since leaving Friday’s game with pain.

• Wednesday, September 21, 2016

CHICAGO – You don’t need Jon Lester to tell you how much is left to play for this season for the Cubs.

You just had to watch him pitch Tuesday night against the last-place Reds five nights after the Cubs clinched the division.

Just had to watch him shake off that one-hop shot from Joey Votto that got him flush on his right wrist, to then retire six of the final seven he faced in Tuesday’s 6-1 victory over the Reds.

Cy Young contention?

Sure, the Cubs’ big-money lefty looks to be in the driver’s seat after his ninth straight victory and after lowering his second-in-MLB ERA to 2.36 with only one run allowed in seven innings.

But more than that, one night after Joe Maddon talked about “micro-focusing” now that the clinch parties are over, the Cubs scored six two-out runs against the Reds. Lester served notice that he’s not slowing down on the way to a presumptive Game 1 playoff start Oct. 7.

And this: With their victory and the Nationals’ 1-0 loss to the Marlins on Tuesday, the Cubs’ magic number for clinching home-field advantage until the World Series was reduced to four with 11 games to play – same number of victories it would take for the Cubs to reach 100 wins for the first time in 81 years.

8 COLLEGE FOOTBALL: ILLINOIS

Illini try to use bye to forget, improve

Ranked teams await Illinois after 1-2 start

By DAVID MERCER

The Associated Press

CHAMPAIGN – If ever a team could use a week off, it would Illinois after Saturday’s 34-10 home loss to Western Michigan.

The Broncos (3-0) have now beaten two Big Ten teams this fall, and they’re getting a handful of votes in the Top 25. The way they won left the Illini (1-2) groping for answers.

Illinois rushed for a paltry 3 yards, while giving up 287 yards on the ground and 487 total. The Illini trailed 24-7 at halftime to a team they scheduled as a likely win, and one the University of Illinois paid $1.2 million to make the trip to Champaign.

“I don’t know” was the go-to line for many players as they tried to explain what went wrong.

The one thing the Illini can’t do as they open the Big Ten season Oct.

Illinois quarterback Wes Lunt (left) has the ball stripped by Western Michigan defensive lineman Eric Assuoa during the first quarter Saturday in Champaign.

1 at No. 20 Nebraska is dwell on the loss to the Broncos, Illinois coach Lovie Smith said.

“You have to have a short memo-

ry,” he said. “What you can’t do is let Western Michigan beat you twice.”

A lot went wrong against the Broncos. Tackling was a problem. Both

the offensive and defensive lines were dominated at times. And Smith said his quarterback, Wes Lunt, did not throw the ball downfield when he could and should have.

Smith said this week’s practices would be more like training camp than the typical in-season practice routine, focused on fundamentals.

Only three games into the season, Lunt and other players are talking about the need to do something like soul searching before they begin a run of conference games that will start with the Cornhuskers and include both No. 4 Michigan and No. 8 Michigan State over six weeks.

“I think it might be a good thing with the bye. We can kind of look each other in the eyes this next week and see what we need to get better on and really focus on ourselves,” Lunt said. “Because I think that’s the problem, ourselves more than anybody else.”

Added tight end Ainslee Johnson, “We’ve just got to communicate better as an offense and just not look to point the finger at each other.”

Rose and his friends later entered her apartment through an unlocked door and that she awoke the next morning to find herself smeared with lubricant with her dress over her head and a used condom on the floor of her bedroom.

She was confused and her inquiries to Rose about what happened went unanswered, her court filings state.

“I felt just dirty,” she told AP in a recent interview. “Like I didn’t want to believe it was true.”

Rose’s lawyer has said she let the men in through two locked doors and was alert and cleaned up after having sex with the three.

Soon after Fitzgerald ruled on the issue of the woman’s identity, Rose’s attorney, Mark Baute, revealed the woman’s name and was warned by the judge that she would remain anonymous until trial. He had her name struck from the record.

When Baute said her name a second time, Fitzgerald issued a stern rebuke and threatened to sanction him $1,000.

“Do not test my patience,” Fitzgerald said.

Interest in the case has grown as it nears trial, especially in light of several high-profile cases of women who say they were raped while incapacitated.

The application, draft permit, and other documents are available for inspection and may be copied at the Agency between 9:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.

Monday through Friday. A Fact Sheet containing more detailed information is available at no charge.

For further information call the Public Notice Clerk at 217-782-0610. Interested persons are invited to submit written comments on the draft permit to the Agency at the above address. The NPDES Permit and Public Notice numbers must appear on each comment page. All comments received by the Agency not later than 30 days from the date of this publication shall be considered in making the final decision regarding permit issuance.

Any interested person may submit written request for a public hearing on the draft permit, stating their name and address, the nature of the issues proposed to be raised and the evidence proposed to be presented with regard to these issues in the hearing.

Such requests must be received by the Agency not later than 30 days from the date of this publication.

If written comments and/or requests indicate a significant degree of interest in the draft permit, the permittee authority may, at its discretion, hold a public hearing. Public notice will be given 30 days before any public hearing.

LOS ANGELES – A Los Angeles federal judge ruled Tuesday that a woman accusing NBA star Derrick Rose of rape cannot remain anonymous at her upcoming civil trial.

Lawyers for the woman, who is identified in court documents as Jane Doe, argued that her privacy should be protected because she is vulnerable and she already has been harassed after her name was leaked.

U.S. District Judge Michael W. Fitzgerald said the law was very clear on the issue and he wouldn’t close his courtroom to protect her identity. He said any decision by the news media about whether to name her is a journalistic decision.

The Associated Press typically does not identify alleged victims of sexual abuse.

The woman sued Rose last year, claiming the former MVP and two of his friends raped her in August 2013 while she was incapacitated after a night of drinking. Rose and the others deny her claims and contend they had consensual sex with her that night.

The 30-year-old college student told

the AP her family knew nothing about her involvement with Rose or the lawsuit seeking $21.5 million and she wanted to keep it that way and avoid the spotlight.

But Rose’s lawyer wanted her name made public and cited interviews and a news teleconference she conducted last week as a reason to use her real name.

The trial is scheduled to begin Oct. 4, which conflicts with Rose’s preseason preparations for his Derrick Rose first season with the New York Knicks.

Rose, 27, is one of the NBA’s most prominent, but injury-prone, stars. He played his first seven seasons with the Bulls, winning Rookie of the Year and, in 2011, MVP honors. He is in the final year of a five-year deal that will pay him $21.3 million this season.

Rose and the woman dated nonexclusively for two years before the alleged rape.

The woman acknowledges she drank vodka, wine and tequila before the incident and passed out after returning home from Rose’s house. She contends

U.S. outclassed, out of contention

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com TORONTO – Maybe it wouldn’t have mattered.

Maybe if Team USA general manager Dean Lombardi had gone for more skill than grit while building his team, Canada still would have blitzed the Americans for three first-period goals.

Maybe if Team USA coach John Tortorella’s mindset wasn’t stuck in the mid-1990s, Canada still would have been able to toy with the Americans, playing keep-away for three excruciating, borderline embarrassing minutes in the second period.

Maybe, armed with some of the sensational young Americans – Jack Eichel, Johnny Gaudreau, Auston Matthews – that were siphoned off by the Team North America “young guns” squad for this tournament, the United States could have generated more offense, more chances, more hope.

Or maybe the Americans simply don’t have the talent, the depth, the breathtaking speed and skill of the Canadians – a remarkable squad on an international hot streak not seen since the pre-Miracle on Ice Soviets. Probably

Team Canada’s Corey Perry (second from right) celebrates his goal with Jay Bouwmeester (from left), Drew Doughty, Jonathan Toews and Logan Couture in the first period Tuesday against Team USA in Toronto. that, actually.

But Tuesday’s 4-2 loss to Canada in the group stage of the World Cup of Hockey was a modern-day low point for the American program. On the big stage, against the big rival, in a do-or-die game – their “championship,” according to Tortorella – the Americans simply were outclassed. The loss dropped Team USA to 0-2 in pool play, by a combined 7-2 score, and it cannot advance to the semifinals. Thursday night’s essentially meaningless tilt with the 0-2 Czech Republic will end the Americans’ stay

Coventry

in Toronto.

So, hey, look on the bright side. Patrick Kane will be back in time for Blackhawks camp.

While Jonathan Toews, Corey Crawford, Marian Hossa, Niklas Hjalmarsson, Marcus Kruger, and perhaps Artemi Panarin and Artem Anisimov seem destined for the next round, Kane will head back to Chicago in disappointment. Playing for Team USA means the world to Kane – the heartbreak etched on his face is one of the indelible images from the Americans’ last meaningful game against Canada, a 1-0 loss in the Olympic semifinals in 2014. But even though Tortorella beefed up Kane’s line by replacing Justin Abdelkader with Zach Parise on Tuesday – either the much-derided practice lines were a ruse, or Tortorella simply came to his senses – the Americans couldn’t match the Canadian firepower.

Things started well enough, with Ryan McDonagh crashing the net and putting Team USA up 1-0 only 4:22 into the game, punctuating it with a fierce fist pump. Kane picked up an assist on the goal, and the Toronto crowd was suddenly silenced.

It lasted all of 89 seconds.

McHenry County College’s women’s volleyball team stayed unbeaten in Illinois Skyway Collegiate Conference play Tuesday with a three-set win over Morton College in Cicero.

Leading the Scots (15-9 overall, 4-0 ISCC) in their 25-12, 25-13, 25-11 victory were Payton Traff with 40 assists, Sarah Adams (Crystal Lake Central) with 23 digs and four aces, Sommer Rhea with 14 kills and nine digs, and Kayli Trausch (Cary-Grove) with 11 kills.

Belichick won’t rule out QB Garoppolo for Thursday’s game

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Bill Belichick isn’t ready to rule out injured quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo for Thursday night’s game against the Texans.

Garoppolo was a limited participant in practice Tuesday as he continues to recover from the right shoulder injury he suffered late in the first half of New England’s win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

The third-year quarterback sat out Monday’s practice.

Mini-muffins great for snacks, breakfast

Recipes do not have to be original but must be complete. Winners are drawn every two weeks.

The reason cupcakes took the baking world by storm a few years ago is because, in short, they are awesome. A sweet little package of moist, crumby goodness topped with a dollop of creamy, fatty frosting – I understand my four daughter’s (and America’s) obsession.

For the healthy eater, cupcakes might seem like a non-starter; completely off the table. Except, my 10-year-old daughter, Charlotte, did something very wise that changed everything for me last year.

At someone else’s party, she chose a mini-cupcake over a regular-sized cupcake, which frankly puzzled me, given the “more-is-more” tendency normally driving my children’s sugary-treat decisions. Her reason? Because it was “cuter.” To her, tiny was darling, and that made it better. I could use that to my advantage, I decided. And so can you.

I always have loved the automatic portion control that comes with using a regular muffin tin – I bake up everything from scalloped potatoes to huevos rancheros muffin-sized. And mini-muffins are perfect for healthier muffin batters – the smaller size is more forgiving on the texture front, so you can load up batters with protein and fiber (think whole grain flours, nuts, seeds, shredded veggies) and they still will be tasty, where full-sized muffins can feel denser

more easily.

I make all sorts of flavors of minimuffins, and keep them in my freezer in resealable plastic bags for last-minute snacks and even breakfast on the go – they thaw in minutes on the counter.

Using my carrot and (leftover, repurposed) quinoa mini-muffin as a base, I added a reduced sugar frosting out of cream cheese and orange juice, and voila: the mini-muffin became a “cupcake.” Suddenly, I had very reasonable dessert. And, if you want to skip the frosting altogether, then keep this little guy as a mini-muffin, no problem – they are a treat either way.

Mini Quinoa-Carrot Cakes

Start to finish: 30 minutes, plus cooling time Servings: 20 mini cupcakes 1¼ cups finely-milled almond flour 1/2 cup cooked quinoa 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon ground pumpkin pie spice (or ground cinnamon) 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted 2 eggs 1/4 cup sugar (agave or maple syrup could also be used) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/4 teaspoon almond extract 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice (or other

citrus) 1 large banana, mashed well until creamy (about 1/2 cup) 1/3 cup finely-grated carrot (about one carrot), gently squeezed dry in a paper towel Cream Cheese Frosting (optional): 4 ounces (1/2 cup) light cream cheese 1/4 cup powdered sugar 1-2 tablespoons fresh orange juice (or other citrus) Orange zest, for garnish, optional Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, quinoa, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt and set aside.

In a small bowl, vigorously whisk the oil, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, almond extract and orange juice until pale and creamy (about 2 minutes).

Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until blended. Add the banana and carrot and mix well.

Spoon into mini-muffin tin lined with paper liners (or sprayed well with nonstick spray). Fill about 2/3 full. Bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile make the frosting by whisking together the cream cheese, powdered sugar and lemon juice until completely smooth.

Cool cupcakes completely, and frost if desired.

Grandmother Odom’s Apple Cake

Apple cake signals fall Resist urge to dress up simple seasonal dessert

By ELIZABETH KARMEL The Associated Press

My grandmother, who lived with us when I was growing up, had a serious sweet tooth and would bake something almost every day.

In the spring, it was coconut cream pie. In the summer, homemade ice cream and peach pie. And during fall apple season, she would bake this very simple apple cake and serve it warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

My mother and I loved this cake – it’s so simple, yet so satisfying and comforting – and never thought to write it down before my grandmother died. For years, we searched her recipe cards to no avail until last summer when I was doing research for a new cookbook called “Steak and Cake.”

Happily, we came across a recipe

card that looked like it might be the thing. I made the cake immediately, and as my mother and I tasted it, we finally knew we had found the one.

Sometimes, the memory outshines the reality. But in this cake, it did not.

As I was testing recipes for the cookbook, I added my grandmother’s apple cake to 10 other cakes, some classic and some new-fangled, for a neighborhood tasting – the cookbook writer’s version of a “cake walk.”

Everyone gravitated toward my grandmother’s cake.

I had to stop myself from adding a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of vanilla to the batter as I rarely make a cake without it, but I decided I should preserve this cake just the way my grandmother made it. The batter is very stiff – like cookie dough – before you add the apples, but rest assured as soon as the apples

give up their juice, the batter loosens and will bake beautifully.

Grandmother Odom’s Apple Cake Start to finish: 90 minutes Servings: 8-12

4 generous cups raw apples, peeled and cut coarse (about 5 large Granny Smith apples) 2 cups granulated white sugar 1/2 cup vegetable oil such as Crisco 2 large eggs 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 2 teaspoons baking soda 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup chopped toasted walnuts Confectioner’s sugar for decorating Cooking spray Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Peel and chop apples and set aside. Mean-

while, beat together sugar and oil and add eggs one at a time until creamy.

Whisk together flour, cinnamon and soda.

Add dry mixture to sugar, oil and eggs by thirds.

Remove from stand mixer and fold in chopped apples. Let sit for 5 minutes, stir well and add walnuts. Mix well.

Pour batter into prepared pan – I prefer Baker’s Joy or another brand of spray coating with flour – and place on a sheet pan to bake.

Bake 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan 10 minutes, then invert on a cake cooling rack. Dust top with confectioner’s sugar if desired.

I love dessert. I also love being healthy. My four kiddos also love sweets. So over the years, I’ve created some great strategies for getting some dessert in our lives while also honoring our bodies. If you love baked goods too, go ahead and preheat that oven and listen in – I’ve got some tips for keeping dessert alive while staying reasonable.

First: Make your own. Not only can I manage what is going in them (so I reduce sugar and skip preservatives and artificial stuff), but making my own baked treats puts a minimum halfhour buffer between me and a pan of brownies, which means we all will eat treats mindfully.

Second healthy dessert tip: Cut up small portions of treats and serve them on a tray alongside a healthier “open quantity” option. For instance, I may place a large bowl of clementines or lowfat Greek yogurt on the table next to a plate of homemade banana bread cut into small squares. Diluting the baked goodie with a protein or fiber-filled option is a low-stress way to make dessert healthier for the whole family.

Third tip: invest in a confectioners’ sugar duster and fill it up with organic

1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt Confectioners’ sugar, optional

powdered sugar. Even a tiny dusting of powdered sugar fools our palates into thinking something is sweeter than it is, simply because it’s visible.

Finally, a tip just for the adults: Drink espresso with a chunk of dark chocolate or a small finger of homemade cake (like this week’s Earl Grey lemon teacakes) for dunking – the deep roasted flavor of espresso coupled with just a little sweet makes a surprisingly satisfying, and sophisticated, dessert.

Earl Grey Lemon Teacakes Start to finish: 40 minutes

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line bottom of an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper and spray with nonstick spray.

In a medium bowl, whip coconut oil, Earl Grey leaves, lemon zest and agave syrup using a hand mixer until well-blended and light. Add the eggs one at time and mix well with mixer in between. Add the vanilla and lemon juice and mix well.

In a small bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Then pour in half the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix very briefly. Add the second half of the flour and mix just until blended. Do not overmix.

Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake until cake springs back after pressing lightly with your finger, about 25-30 minutes.

Let the cake cool for 10 minutes in the pan, and then remove to let cool completely on a rack.

Cut into 14 fingers and sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar (optional) and serve.

Servings: 14 1/4 cup coconut oil, soft, but not melted (pop in freezer for a few minutes if needed) 1 tablespoon Earl Grey tea leaves, pounded to a coarse powder (use a small plastic bag and mallet or heavy spoon) 1 tablespoon lemon zest 1/4 cup light agave syrup (or 1/3 cup sugar) 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 3 tablespoons lemon juice 1 cup all-purpose flour 3/4 teaspoon baking powder

4 Earl Grey Lemon Teacakes offer dessert without much guilt

By KATIE WORKMAN The Associated Press

There are certain baked goods that elicit a fierce loyalty among fans. They bring out strong feelings about how they should be prepared (often the same way they were prepared in said fans’ childhoods). And someone else’s failure to appreciate them can be met with shock and confusion.

Lemon tarts, or lemon bars as they also are known, are such a baked good.

People who love them, love them.

I once spent a long time making my grandfather a chocolate cake from a famous recipe, and after he finished his slice, he said to me, “You know what I like?”

“What?” I said (expecting a compliment on the rich filling, the moist cake, something like that).

“Lemon,” he said wistfully.

The filling in these squares, or bars, is a bit tart – I don’t see the point of too-sweet lemon squares – but not confrontational. Adding a couple of tablespoons of heavy cream offers a silkier texture to the filling, and a smoother citrus experience.

Sometimes lemon zest is added to the filling, and while I love the extra burst of citrus, I’m more in love with a super smooth filling, so I skip it.

But you can add a teaspoon or so of zest if you like.

If you want to gild the lily, serve these with some sweetened whipped cream on the side. Don’t dust them with confectioners’ sugar until just before serving.

Lemon Squares

Start to finish time: Servings: Makes 15 large squares For the crust 1½ cups all-purpose flour 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 teaspoon kosher or coarse salt 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons (1¾ sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces For the filling 5 large eggs 2½ cups granulated sugar 1 cup fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons heavy cream 3/4 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar for dusting

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch pan or spray it with nonstick cooking spray, and line the bottom with a piece of parchment paper cut to fit cleanly on the bottom of the pan but hang over the two long sides (you will use this to lift out the squares once they are baked and cooled).

In a food processor, combine the flour, confectioners’ sugar and salt. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal (or you can cut the butter into the flour mixture in a bowl using two knives, a pastry cutter or your fingers). Transfer the mixture to the pan and press it evenly into the bottom. Bake 15 to 18 minutes until golden and a bit firm to the touch.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the eggs and granulated sugar, and whisk or beat with an electric mixer until smooth.

Beat in the lemon juice and cream, and then beat in the flour, until very smooth. When the crust is golden and set, pour in the filling, return the pan to the oven and bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until it doesn’t jiggle at all when you gently shake the pan. Let cool completely on a wire rack to room temperature.

Run a knife around the edge of the pan, and cut the bars into 15 (or more) squares.

Remove the bars with a spatula, or carefully

Lemon Squares AP photo

use the overhanging edges of the parchment to smoothly lift out the lemon bars.

Place the 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar into a small sieve and dust it over the lemon bars just before serving.

is hosting a Holiday Boutique Nov 19 & 20.

We need local Vendors to offer their goods and services. Contact: frgholidayb@yahoo.com Albert Einstein said, “A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.” Presumably the wise person has the answer before the problem occurs.

Clever people tend to play bridge better than the less-clever -- but not always. One of the weakest players I ever saw got a first-class honors degree and went on to gain a Ph.D. It is always fun to find a clever piece of declarer-play or defense.

What can East-West do that qualifies in this deal, where South is in three spades?

The bidding featured two relatively modern conventions. First, West made a Snapdragon Double, which showed length (five or six cards) in the unbid suit (clubs) and tolerance for partner’s suit (typically honor doubleton; but maybe three low if the doubler’s suit is particularly strong; or at a real pinch, even a low doubleton). North’s spade raise guaranteed four-card support, because with only three spades he would have made a Support Redouble.

When East competed with three clubs, South bid three spades because he knew his side had a nine-card fit.

At first glance, South will lose only two hearts and two clubs. But the defenders have an extra trick up their sleeves. West leads the club ace. Since the queen is on the board, East signals count, playing the eight, starting a high-low (echo) with an even number. West cashes the club king, then shifts to the heart queen, East encouraging with his seven. East takes the second heart and returns a low heart. When West ruffs with the spade jack, the uppercut promotes a trump trick for East.
