Good morning, McHenry County ...

Disagree with our endorsement? Fine The Northwest Herald’s Editorial Board began its endorsement process today by recommending candidates in McHenry County’s two congressional races.

On today’s main Opinion page (A18), you can read the Editorial Board’s endorsements of incumbent Republicans Peter Roskam (Illinois’ 6th Congressional District) and Randy Hultgren (Illinois’ 14th Congressional District) over their Democratic challengers.

In the coming days and through next week, the Editorial Board will endorse in contested races for McHenry County Board chairman, state’s attorney and recorder, all six County Board districts, Illinois Senate Districts 26 and 32, state representative Districts 63 and 66, U.S. senator and U.S. president.

I am a member of the Editorial Board as are other editors at the newspaper. Reporters who cover these races in our news pages are not members of the Editorial Board and do not participate in the endorsement process. Our endorsements do not affect our news coverage of these races.

Newspaper endorsements essentially are recommendations to voters. They are meant to provoke thought and discussion in advance of the Nov. 8 election.

We expect many of our readers to disagree with us on many of our endorsements. Disagree-

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Pam Spain has survived two bouts of breast cancer and wants to help others going through the disease.

She is in remission, but the aftereffects of the disease are something that affect her daily, she said.

“It’s still on my mind,” she said.

“I still have doctor’s appointments and complications. I have neuropathy … so my muscles don’t move as well as they should from the radiation. The complications tend to stay with you for life.”

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and local organizations are ramping up efforts to encourage mammograms and raise funds for local resources.

Valley Hi to give report on scabies outbreak to board

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Leaders of Valley Hi Nursing Home will tell the McHenry County Board on Tuesday that the home is on track to being formally declared free of scabies after a summer outbreak.

While the county-run nursing home west of Woodstock declared itself to be free of scabies in August, and no new cases were reported, it still will be several weeks before the Illinois Department of Public Health will concur, Valley Hi Administrator Tom Annarella said.

“As far as we’re concerned, we’ve been able to get rid of scabies in the Valley Hi community,” Annarella said.

Six residents of the nursing home came down with the highly contagious skin disorder. Valley Hi confirmed the

first case July 1, the day after notifying the McHenry County Department of Health of the issue.

A July 20 report by the IDPH concluded that Valley Hi’s plans to control the outbreak were deficient. Valley Hi submitted a corrective action plan to the state.

Norwegian, or crusted, scabies is a severe form of the disorder caused by

an infestation of the skin by the human itch mite. Its victims have thick crusts of skin that contain large numbers of the mites and their eggs.

Scabies is spread by both direct person-to-person contact and through contamination of clothing, bedding and furniture.

Nursing homes, extended-care facilities, prisons and other crowded places where close skin contact is frequent are common sites of scabies outbreaks, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Norwegian scabies is most common with the elderly, the disabled and people with compromised immune systems.

Besides Annarella’s presentation, Tuesday’s meeting will consist mostly of the approval of service contracts and the endorsement of a number of proposed watershed plans.

Auction canceled for home of Faith Acres Foundation founders

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com McHENRY – McHenry residents Jodie and Jeff Clow, founders of the Faith Acres Foundation, were in jeopardy of losing their home Monday at an auction. However, the Clow family said they learned late afternoon Friday that Monday’s auction date was canceled.

“This news was such a blessing,” Jodie Clow said.

After experiencing a financial setback, the Clow family was notified their home would be put up for auction Monday. Jodie Clow said her family submitted a loan modification package through their lawyers to their lender, but the modification package was not considered.

As a result, Clow’s lawyers requested an emergency session before the judge, Jodie said, and Friday it was determined their loan now will be considered.

“The next step is for us to get our

papers together so that our lender has all the proper paperwork,” Jodie Clow said.

There is no scheduled auction date, and the Clow family’s next court date is set for Nov. 7.

Faith Acres is a nonprofit organization with the mission of helping others in need through prayer, relationships, health and finances. The foundation is providing people who are struggling financially with food that would typically go to waste.

“We’re trying to harness our waste so that we have more resources that we can share,” Jodie Clow said.

A fundraising campaign on youcaring.com was created by volunteers to help the Clow family raise enough money for the now-canceled auction.

Jodie Clow also noted people can donate directly to the foundation through faitha.org, where donations will be fully tax deductible.

“Even though there is no auction date right now, any money that’s raised through either donation page is still used for the same purpose, which is to help preserve this McHenry share shelter or any future properties the foundation may have,” Jodie Clow said. “We’re so thankful for all the volunteers who have helped us out and helped spread the word.”

The Clow family have been at their current residence for more than 11 years. Jodie said her home also acts as a sharing center for the foundation and sees about three to 25 families in need a day.

HUNTLEY

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Attorneys on Monday selected 10 jurors in the trial for a Huntley man and Mount Prospect police sergeant facing domestic battery and aggravated battery to a peace officer charges.

Opening statements are expected to begin Tuesday after the remaining two

jurors and two alternates are chosen.

The trial is expected to last until Thursday, with McHenry County Judge Michael Feetterer presiding.

Anthony G. Lietzow was charged with aggravated battery to a peace officer, aggravated domestic battery, domestic battery and resisting a peace officer after a neighbor called police about 4:30 a.m. July 19, 2015, to report a possible domestic disturbance at Lietzow’s home.

Authorities allege that Lietzow tried to harm a family member, failed to cooperate with police while being handcuffed, and “pushed the arm and shoulder” of a police officer who had entered Lietzow’s home.

Philip Prossnitz, Lietzow’s attorney, plans to argue on behalf of his client that he was resisting an unlawful entrance into his residence and was acting in self-defense.

kcraver@shawmedia.com Legal interpretation of a federal ruling curtailing expanded same-day registration will allow the practice at early voting stations.

The state’s county clerks, after a conference call last week, agreed that early voting stations still would be allowed to register people to vote, McHenry County Clerk Mary McClellan said.

Legal counsel for the Illinois State Board of Elections concurred with the interpretation, she said.

U.S. District Judge Samuel DerYeghiayan slapped a preliminary injunction on a state law that requires counties with more than 100,000 residents to implement a system by which voters can register at the same time they cast ballots at any polling place through Election Day. Under the law, which was implemented after a successful pilot program in 2014, counties with fewer than 100,000 residents can opt out if they

But a Republican congressional candidate and a county Republican central committee filed suit earlier this summer, alleging that the law violated the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment by creating a system in which larger counties – which lean or outright vote Democratic – would have a greater opportunity to vote.

Early voting started Thursday at McClellan’s office in Woodstock, and will open at 10 locations Oct. 24 through the day before the Nov. 8 election.

People who are not registered to vote can do so at these places, providing they also vote at the same time.

The only location to have same-day registration the day of the Nov. 8 election will be McClellan’s office.

Aside from those early voting options, the last day to register to vote is Oct. 11.

People who already are registered only have to re-register if they have moved or changed their name since the last election.

You can register if you are a U.S. citizen and will be at least 18 years old

by Election Day. You can register in person at McClellan’s office or at any local library, or register online at ova. elections.il.gov.

In-person registration requires two forms of identification, one of which must include your current address.

For information, visit the Illinois State Board of Elections website at www.elections.il.gov, or call McClellan’s office at 815-334-4242.

McClellan said the line to vote at her office has been “out the door” since Thursday, averaging about 100 voters a day.

Legal interpretation expands county’s same-day voting registration options

Lietzow previously pleaded guilty in October 2015 to a misdemeanor resisting a peace officer charge, but withdrew his guilty plea after he claimed he didn’t know he would lose his job. He remains on unpaid leave while his criminal case progresses. The prosecutors in the case, Assistant State’s Attorneys Michael Combs and Dave Johnston, agreed to dismiss the Class 2 felony aggravated domestic battery charge.

Police: House party leads to drug arrest of Harvard resident

A Harvard resident was arrested Saturday for possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance after deputies responded to a loud party complaint in McHenry Township, according to the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

At 1:52 a.m., the McHenry County Sheriff’s Patrol Division was dispatched to investigate a loud party in the 6700 block of Route 120 in unincorporated McHenry Township. When deputies arrived at the scene, they observed 24-year-old Brandon Rouse allegedly trying to conceal a controlled substance, according to the sheriff’s office.

Sheriff’s police said upon further investigation they determined that Rouse was in possession of MDMA and a residual amount of cocaine. The sheriff’s deputies were able to seize MDMA with a street value of about $600, police said.

Rouse was taken into custody without incident and was eventually taken to the McHenry County Jail.

The incident still is under investigation with additional charges possible, sheriff’s police said. Rouse’s next court date is scheduled for 9 a.m. Oct. 19. His bond is set at $175,000.

For many cancer survivors, the journey doesn’t end after treatment when remission is achieved. It just changes, said Diane Haber, a cancer survivor and founder of The Renewal Center, a Crystal Lake-based counsel-

ing and support organization for cancer survivors.

“When you are undergoing treatment, you are trying to stay alive, and you don’t think of anything past that,” she said. “But then the emotional part creeps in. … Some people aren’t aware of all the emotions they are dealing with.”

Fear, grief and loss are all common things that survivors deal with

in the aftermath of the illness. It helps to be around people who get it. Often, well-meaning friends and family can unintentionally invalidate concerns of another scare.

“Our friends and family want us to be healthy, so when you tell someone you are worried, you get the ‘Don’t be silly, you are fine,’ ” Haber said. “But these are real emotions. I’m a 10-year survivor, and when I have to go to the oncologist, it all comes back like it was yesterday.”

The Renewal Center offers ongoing support groups, individual counseling and other services to all cancer survivors – not just breast cancer survivors.

“There tends to be more resources for breast cancer survivors than for others,” she said. “We have had people who have had every kind of cancer.”

“We feel [late diagnosis] is because people don’t have access to early detection services because they don’t have insurance to go get a mammogram,” she said. “And so we have a much higher mortality rate because your odds of survival are much better the earlier you catch it.”

The clinic offers some free services to individuals without insurance through its breast cancer fund, partially financed by its 5K event, which is in its 16th year with a goal to raise $150,000. The event will be Oct. 16 at Woodstock North High School.

Family Health Partnership will celebrate its 20th anniversary next year, and the event has increased awareness of both the clinic and importance of early detection, Annetti said.

“It’s a great way for us to let people know we are here and what services we offer,” she said. “There are a lot of uninsured people in the county, so we are trying to get the word out that we are here for them, whether it’s for women’s health or primary care.”

Spain has participated in the event for the past three years and has organized a team of her own, “Follow the Zebra,” for the past two.

TOM WILBECK Republican

Why should voters from your district elect you to the McHenry County Board?

We are tired of voting for people who say they will lower our taxes responsibly then neglect that promise. I have practical ideas for cutting costs without risking services for our most vulnerable citizens that begin with cutting overhead at the board level – a move that saves us millions. I have common sense ideas to help small business through civic engagement programs already employed around the country but neglected here. Nearly $2 billion in private investment came through Chicago programs last year to fund start-ups, but not a dime of it came to McHenry County. Our board has not adequately supported our more than 20,000 small businesses owners. When they succeed, our residential tax burden is reduced without adding to the abused TIF program. I have the experience in business growth strategies, Six Sigma and collaborative technology to help make this a reality. I am committed to a service model that helps people stay engaged beyond Election Day. We are clearly not represented properly when we cannot name even one of our four district board members.

We need a community of stakeholders, each bringing ideas to help improve our community and plan for the future.

I am a proven citizen advocate to decisions that directly affect McHenry County residents.

I seek re-election to continue to provide financial protection for all our citizens. My knowledge, professional business experience and community involvement contribute to making me a qualified and effective representative. I have extensive experience in all areas of municipal and county government, including finance, zoning, infrastructure, public safety and technology. My schedule allows a full-time commitment and availability to all County Board information and activities. I currently serve as the McHenry County Board vice chairwoman and have served on all of the larger county committees in leadership roles.

My goals for the next term include changes to the capital plan, additional budget cuts and elimination of nonessential spending. The most important issue is a reduction in both spending and debt. Cost savings and service efficiencies accomplish lower costs for our taxpayers.

Voters deserve the opportunity to vote for someone with a different approach and new ideas. Our politicians promise to cut taxes while simultaneously treating us like an ATM, and I believe there is more to being a leader than arbitrarily cutting taxes for the sake of cutting taxes. I am passionate about planning for our future, protecting our environment and standing up for working families. I am concerned with the lack of concern from County Board members regarding the sustainability of our county water supply. We rely 100 percent on groundwater, and county reports indicate potential water shortages by 2030, especially in District 1. We are at a pivotal moment where we must decide if more of the same is good enough or if modern new ideas are necessary to move us into the future.

The County Board needs an influx of new people and new ideas. I promise to listen, ask the hard questions and bring a fresh perspective instead of “business as usual.” There are many challenges. Practical, common sense leadership is needed. My business and previous elected office (Seneca Township trustee and McHenry County College trustee) experience will give the people of District 1 a solid, conservative and trusted representative.

Many voters feel like they are overtaxed. What will you do to help keep county government spending down? Be specific.

Wasteful spending includes lawsuit settlements and single meeting expenditures of $130,000 to hire drone operators. These poor decisions add up quickly. Rejecting awarded grant funds to support our cooperative social services also costs us federal funding – a return of our tax dollars. Ending this behavior by rejecting the status quo is a good first step. Transparency in practice is another. A levy should be collected and applied for the exact purpose intended, not to fill budget gaps in other areas. That isn’t transparency.

Instead, taxpayers need a clear understanding of how money is being spent. This should be a standard practice to educate the public and provide inclusion for decisions about how our resources are managed. TIF programs should clearly state who the beneficiaries of these subsidies are. Just as shareholders demand accountability, as taxpayers, we are funding their businesses. I would also like a clear accounting of our video gambling tax payments to the state in comparison to the taxes we retain with the external costs we bare from addiction, home foreclosures and other burdens to our charities.

I support decreased spending and a reduction in the size and scope of government. I oppose efforts to increase revenues through taxation, debt service or increased fees. The county must continue to eliminate unnecessary costs and programs that are not statutorily mandated. Some county departments are doing more with less. Other departments are doing less with less. This reorganization will continue and is a significant accomplishment. Areas for additional reductions include consulting contracts, health care costs, capital project scheduling and debt reduction. Cost decreases can also be realized through staff attrition, operational changes, leasing programs and cooperative shared services. Changes to our departments are evaluated multiple times each year as we work with department managers and elected officials. A top priority must be a dedicated approach to multiyear project planning, benefit analysis and strategic reorganization.

The county should be more resourceful and make the most of what we already have in order to keep government spending down. I want to work with County Board members, administrators, employees, local governing bodies and residents of the county to actively seek out wasteful spending and eliminate redundancies.

I will scrutinize spending and vote against tax increases that do not benefit the people. We need to examine how much taxpayer money is being spent on tax incentives for businesses.

The county economic strategy should be more diverse and progressive to take the tax burden off residents and provide economic security should a revenue stream fail in the future. Our focus should be on recruiting emerging industries that share our same values of economic responsibility and sustainability while filling our already developed but vacant spaces with an all local workforce. Also, the number of members serving on the County Board should be reduced.

I will keep the county levy flat. I will ask for a departmental needs analysis and budget accordingly. The county portion of the property tax bill is approximately 10 percent. I will look to eliminate inefficiencies to lower that tax burden. Outsourcing, consolidation, technology and intercounty cooperation can lower costs.

STATE

Duckworth goes after Kirk in their 1st debate

By SARA BURNETT

Gun violence

The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Democratic U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth went after Republican U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk on Monday during the first debate of their U.S. Senate race, criticizing his judgment on national security issues and his “endless” controversial statements.

Kirk, who spoke far less than the Hoffman Estates Democrat and rarely challenged her, used the meeting before the Chicago Tribune editorial board to tout his record as a fiscal conservative and an independent, noting that he broke from his party to support gun control legislation and gay marriage.

The first-term senator from Highland Park is seen as one of the Senate’s most endangered Republican incumbents in a year when Democrats could regain control of the Senate. Illinois, a left-leaning state, tends to elect Democrats in statewide contests, particularly in presidential election years.

Democrats need four or five Senate seats to win back the majority in November, depending on which party wins the White House and can send the vice president to break a tie.

Here’s a look at some of the issues covered Monday:

ILLINOIS ROUNDUP

News from across the state

Illinois suspending $30 billion in activity with Wells Fargo

SPRINGFIELD – State Treasurer Michael Frerichs suspended $30 billion in state investment activity with Wells Fargo on Monday, joining a swelling chorus of outrage over the scandal that saw bank employees opening millions of phony accounts to meet sales goals.

Frerichs was uncertain how much the yearlong suspension would cost the nation’s second-largest bank, which serves as broker-dealer for state investments, but said it likely amounts to millions of dollars. A company spokesman said it will be far less.

The move by Illinois, which has

Asked what federal lawmakers could do about Chicago’s increase in gun violence, Kirk said he has proposed legislation to reduce the availability of illegal guns.

The measure, which he co-sponsored with Democratic U.S. Sen. Kristin Gillibrand of New York, would crack down on stores that knowingly sell guns to Mark Kirk people who provide the weapons those who can’t legally buy them. He said it’s aimed at a handful of gun stores that law enforcement officials said have sold a large portion of the guns used in Chicago shootings.

Duckworth said she supports gun control measures, such as banning assault weapons. But she said any solution also must include creating jobs in impoverished neighborhoods where unemployed young people are joining gangs as a way to make money.

Syria

Duckworth said she’d take a multipronged approach to the conflict in Syria, including “surgical air strikes” and pressing Russia and the Syrian government to abide by a ceasefire agreement.

The Iraq War veteran who was in-

nearly $1 trillion a year in banking activities, follows closely on similar action last week by California after regulators in that state and the federal government fined the company $185 million.

A federal consent order issued in September found that bank employees, scrambling to meet sales goals, opened about 2 million deposit, credit card, debit card and online accounts without customers’ knowledge, charging fees and, in some cases, damaging their credit so they had to pay higher interest rates on loans.

Duckworth said the idea “doesn’t even make sense” and would require “a massive increase in U.S. forces.”

“We can’t just be a nation that continually sends troops to war,” she said.

Kirk disagreed, saying it could be handled by the Navy and an air defense system and wouldn’t require “boots on the ground.”

Kirk gaffes

Duckworth said some of Kirk’s statements have been “irresponsible and not befitting of a U.S. senator.”

She noted he called Sen. Lindsey Graham, who is unmarried, a “bro without a ho” and said Obama was acting like the “drug dealer in chief” when the U.S. made a $400 million to Iran contingent on the return of U.S. prisoners.

Dart sent “cease and desist” letters last year urging the companies to stop providing payment services for any ads on the website. The companies complied within 48 hours.

Backpage sued, alleging that Dart was interfering illegally with its ability to do business. A federal judge sided with Dart, finding his letters were protected by the Constitution’s First Amendment.

Kirk opposes letting people refinance student loans, and he said the U.S. can’t afford free college.

Kirk says the best answer is to allow parents to make tax-deferred contributions to a college funding plan for their kids.

Kankakee County sheriff: 4 homicides in less than 36 hours

KANKAKEE – Four homicides, including a triple homicide, occurred in less than 36 hours in a northeastern Illinois township, and police said Monday that it

appears the crimes are related.

Ralph Ledet, 46, of Pembroke Township was found dead in his driveway shot in his head about 1 a.m. Saturday, Kankakee County officials said. The next day just before 1 p.m., deputies investigating a report of three men shot found a father and two sons dead.

Those victims were identified as Reginald Neal, 56, Dangelo Neal, 24, and Davante Hopkins, 21. The Kankakee County coroner planned autopsies Monday.

The three men suffered multiple gunshot wounds, Kankakee County Sheriff Mike Downey said at a Monday news conference.

The three men found dead Sunday were discovered by a relative who called police, Downey said.

Downey said investigators believe the killings were targeted “because of the way they were killed.” He said the victims weren’t restrained, and there were no signs of struggle.

Clinton blasts Trump on taxes, business skills The ASSOCIATED PRESS TOLEDO, Ohio – Hillary Clinton tore into Donald Trump’s tax maneuvering, business skills and trustworthiness Monday as she sought to capitalize on news that the New York real estate mogul may have paid no federal taxes for years. Unfazed, he boasted of using U.S. tax laws “brilliantly” and cast himself as a savvy business survivor poised to save a reeling nation.

Campaigning at a Toledo train station, Clinton castigated Trump as a cold-hearted and bungling businessman who “represents the same rigged system that he claims he’s going to change.” She called for a new law requiring presidential candidates from major parties to release their tax returns, as Trump has refused to do, and she accused him of shirking his responsibility as a taxpayer.

“He’s taken corporate excess and made a business model out of it,” she said. “It’s Trump first and everyone else last.”

The Democrat’s broadside was her first response to a weekend New York Times report that Trump claimed a loss of nearly $916 million in a single year on his personal tax filings. The Times said the size of the loss could have allowed him to avoid federal taxes for nearly two decades, an assertion his campaign neither confirmed nor disputed.

Nor did Trump.

Instead, at a Colorado rally, he portrayed himself as a man who bounced back from financial losses, will recover from a currently difficult stretch of the campaign, and propel the nation to a similar turnaround.

“On Nov. 8, America’s comeback begins,” he told cheering supporters in Pueblo.

As for questions about his tax history, Trump said he

“The unfairness of the tax laws is unbelievable. It’s something I’ve been talking about for a long time, despite, frankly, being a big beneficiary of the laws,” Trump told the crowd in Pueblo. “But I’m working for you now. I’m not working for Trump.”

He acknowledged business failures as well as successes but declared, “I’m still here.”

He said that “our country is in need of a major comeback,” just like the one he was able to pull off after near-financial collapse in the 1990s – and the one, he implied, he would make from his recent drop in the polls after a difficult campaign week.

Several of Trump’s surrogates also rallied to note that the Times report did not allege wrongdoing and they contended the Republican presidential candidate was a “genius” for using the tax system to rebuild his fortune.

At the same time, the Clinton campaign seized on the comment with a new TV ad, asking, “If not paying taxes makes him smart, what does that make the rest of us?”

In her remarks in Ohio,

Clinton mocked: “What kind of genius loses a billion dollars in a single year?”

Other Trump troubles mounted.

Former cast and crew members from the reality TV show “The Apprentice” described for the first time his treatment of women on the set. Show insiders told The Associated Press that Trump rated female contestants by the size of their breasts and talked about which ones he’d like to have sex with.

The campaign issued a broad denial, calling the claims “totally false.”

Also Monday, the New York attorney general’s office ordered the Trump Foundation to immediately stop fundraising in the state, saying it isn’t registered to do so.

The back-to-back bad news piled on a week of Trump missteps and his increasingly aggressive personal attacks on Clinton. Since a rocky debate last week, Trump has engaged in a distracting feud with a former beauty queen he called “Miss Piggy” because she gained weight during her reign. He seemed to try to shift the conversation Saturday night when he suggested, without evidence, that Clinton may have cheated on her husband.

The Associated Press DURHAM, North Carolina – Paulos Muruts is set to cast his first presidential ballot for Hillary Clinton – if he makes it to the ballot box.

“I might need someone on Election Day to actually convince me to go out and vote,” says the 19-year-old Duke University student, arguing that the Democratic nominee “has the experience” and “exudes the right temperament” but “doesn’t inspire excitement.”

Yet mention Clinton’s would-be predecessor, and Muruts’ eyes light up.

“Love President Obama,” he says. “He’s got swagger.”

Muruts represents a frustrating political reality for Clinton in her matchup against Republican nominee Donald Trump: She’ll fare far better on Election Day among voters age 18-30, but she could fall short of Obama’s totals and turnouts that drove his national victories in 2008 and 2012, a new GenForward survey suggests.

The survey math tells the story. The GenForward survey, conducted Sept. 1-14 by the Black Youth Project at the University of Chicago with the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, found that 54 percent of voters age 18 to 30 held a negative view of Clinton. Just 41 percent said they see her favorably. At the same time, 60 percent of respondents said they approve of Obama’s job performance, while 26 percent do not. That’s a difference of 19 percentage points between the president’s job approval and Clinton’s favorability.

Any drop-off in the “Obama coalition,” whether because of defections to minor candidates or eligible voters opting to stay home, could affect the outcomes in battleground states such as North Carolina, Colorado, Virginia, Ohio and Florida – all of which have significant populations of college students and young professionals.

Perhaps most vexing for Clinton is that the GenForward survey depicts a young generation less

critical of the current Oval Office occupant than older voters. Obama argues plainly on the campaign trail that “my legacy is on the ballot.” But those sentiments just aren’t so easily transferred to his preferred successor, even as young voters resoundingly reject Trump and, as a whole, declare Clinton more honest and more qualified than the GOP nominee.

A fifth of the young voters surveyed said they will vote for Libertarian Gary Johnson, the Green Party’s Jill Stein or someone else. Duke graduate student Jennifer Lenart, 23, is among them, citing ongoing wrangles, including Clinton’s use of a private email server while she ran the State Department.

The server should not be disqualifying, Lenart says. But she argues that the negative attention, fair or not, would hamper a Clinton presidency.

“I do like her,” Lenart says, but adds, “I’d rather start from a clean slate so we don’t have to deal with this anymore.”

Clinton’s favorability deficit is driven by whites: Nearly two-thirds of them professed a negative view of Clinton, the survey shows. But Obama outpaces Clinton across all racial and ethnic lines. Whites: 49 percent job approval for Obama, 33 favorability for Clinton. Blacks: 78 percent for Obama, 60 for Clinton. Latinos: Obama 70, Clinton 52. Asian-Americans: Obama 73, Clinton 50.

To be sure, Clinton holds commanding advantages over Trump among young African-Americans, Hispanics and Asian-Americans. But the poll leaves doubts about whether she can turn them out to vote. More than half of young whites say they will definitely vote, but less than 4 in 10 nonwhites say the same.

The challenge for Clinton is evident even among young Republicans who say they plan to back Trump.

Thayer Atkins, a Republican who said he will reluctantly vote for his party’s nominee, doesn’t go so far as to offer “approval” for Obama’s job performance. But he makes clear his complaints are only related to policy.

Among young voters, Obama’s popularity may not transfer

WASHINGTON – Already-testy relations between the United States and Russia plummeted Monday as Washington suspended diplomatic contacts with Moscow over failed efforts to end the war in Syria and President Vladimir Putin put on hold a deal with the U.S. on disposing weapons-grade plutonium.

On the surface, the suspensions were unrelated. But both underscored deep mistrust and rising tensions between the former Cold War foes, who are increasingly at odds on a number of issues, particularly Syria and Ukraine. In the short term, the end of discussions on Syria deals a potential death blow to efforts to slow the civil war and begin negotiations on possible elections in the country that could mean the ouster of President Bashar Assad.

Underscoring the deterioration between the U.S. and Russia, Putin suspended a deal on plutonium disposal hours before the U.S. announcement. The two powers still will continue discussions on the Iran nuclear deal, Ukraine and other non-Syria issues.

The Russian Foreign Ministry said the U.S. has “done all it could to destroy the atmosphere encouraging cooperation.” It cited U.S. sanctions on Moscow over its annexation of the Crimea region of Ukraine and NATO’s deployment of forces near Russian borders.

U.S. officials said that despite the suspension of talks with Russia, they would continue to work for a truce and aid deJosh Earnest liveries to Syria in other gatherings, including the International Syria Support Group, a collection of nations, including Russia.

The Obama administration said it decided to cut off discussions on Syria because Russia had not lived up to the terms of last month’s agreement to restore a tattered cease-fire and ensure sustained deliveries of humanitarian aid to besieged cities, such as Aleppo, which has been under bombardment from Russian and Syrian forces.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest said, “What’s clear is that there is nothing more for the United States and Russia to talk about with regard to trying to reach an agreement that would reduce the violence inside of Syria, and that’s tragic.”

“This is not a decision that was taken lightly,” State Department spokesman John Kirby said in a statement.

Kirby’s statement said that Russia and Syria are pursuing military action in violation of the cease-fire agreement, and pointed to their targeting of hospitals as well as the Sept. 19 airstrike on a United Nations humanitarian aid convoy. The U.S. accused Russia of bombing that convoy, a charge both Russia and Syria have denied.

Obama, DiCaprio team up against climate change

By NANCY BENAC

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama and actor Leonardo DiCaprio teamed up on the White House South Lawn on Monday to sound a call for urgent action to combat climate change.

Obama told a crowd gathered for the “South by South Lawn” festival of technology and music that the world is in “a race against time” to combat climate change.

The president said the world gets an “incomplete” grade on its response to global warming so far, but he added that “the good news is we can still pass the test.”

“I tend to be a cautious optimist about our ability to make change,” Obama said.

Neither Donald Trump nor Hillary Clinton was mentioned in the discussion, but their presence was felt.

DiCaprio, who recently completed a documentary film about climate change, told the White House crowd that he had timed the film to come out before the presidential election.

DeCaprio, who supports Hillary Clinton’s campaign, said the scientific consensus about the dangers of climate change is in, and “the argument is now over.” He added: “If you do not believe in climate change, you do not believe in facts or in science. And therefore, in my humble opinion, you should not be allowed to hold public office.”

Trump has repeatedly referred to climate change as a hoax.

DiCaprio’s film, “Before the Flood,” got its domestic premier on the White House lawn after his discussion with the president and climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe.

The “South by South Lawn” event

President Barack Obama arrives with actor Leonardo DiCaprio and Dr. Katharine Hayhoe to talk about climate change Monday as part of the White House “South by South Lawn” event on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, D.C. was designed to replicate the vibe of the South by Southwest festival held annually in Austin, Texas.

It included panel discussions on topics such as “feeding the future” and “fixing real problems” as well as booths and vendors promoting everything from virtual reality technology to fake tattoos.

Tech blogger and entrepreneur Anil Dash said the South Lawn festival was a way to connect the dots between Austin’s SXSW, with its ideas for changing the world, and the people who are “doing the actual work” to use technology to improve worker rights, civil rights and more.

The White House tech fest also featured a student film festival, a wall of art made of Post-Its, Lego statues, demonstrations on the science of food and using technology to help the disabled and lots of music. Among those performing were the Lumineers, Gallant, Black Alley and DJ Bev Bond.

Aedes Aegypti mosquito larvae swim in a container in August at the Florida Mosquito Control District Office in Marathon, Fla. not have microcephaly, that doesn’t mean no evaluation is needed,” said Dr. Catherine Spong of the NIH’s National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, which despite budget constraints has begun research to better understand the full range of abnormalities they may face.

“Some will be apparent at birth, but likely some will not be,” Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, told re-

porters Monday. He called “the biggest unknown” what will happen to those babies who don’t have an obvious abnormality at birth.

After months of partisan bickering, Congress last week passed a budget bill that includes $1.1 billion to address the Zika crisis. It’s just over half the total emergency money that President Barack Obama requested last February. That was well before cases in U.S. states and territories rose to more than

• Tuesday, October 4, 2016

WASHINGTON – More federal money finally is available to fight Zika, even as the news worsens. Babies who at first seem to have escaped the virus’ devastating hallmark defect – an abnormally small head at birth – might not be out of the woods after all.

Brazilian doctors have counted a small number of babies who at birth had a normal-sized head and only later were found to have problems. They have delayed neurodevelopment. At 5 months, one could use one hand but not the other. Later on, some even developed that defect, called microcephaly.

The brain and skull weren’t growing properly after birth, instead of before.

“Microcephaly is only the tip of the iceberg, only the thing we see when the baby is born,” Dr. Vanessa Van der Linden, a pediatric neurologist in Recife, Brazil, told a meeting at the National Institutes of Health where she outlined a long list of Zika-related abnormalities.

To children’s health experts, the message is clear. Intense study is needed of babies born to Zika-infected mothers to learn the range of health problems they may face.

“It is just critical to evaluate the entire child. Even in the child who does

25,000, and well before mosquitoes started spreading the virus in Florida’s Miami-Dade County.

Federal health officials said Monday they’d race the money to the researchers and state health departments that need it as soon as possible.

Topping the list: A Zika vaccine. An initial safety study of one vaccine candidate enrolled its final participant over the weekend, said Dr. Anthony Fauci, the National Institutes of Health’s infectious disease chief. If follow-up of those participants shows the vaccine was safe and triggered an appropriate immune response, a larger study to test if it really protects is set to begin in January, maybe late December.

Other priorities include mosquito control, development of faster Zika tests and hunting possible treatments.

Out of money to fight Zika over the spring and summer, the government had raided funds meant for other diseases – Ebola, malaria, tuberculosis, even cancer and heart disease – to get started.

But it wasn’t enough, said CDC’s Frieden: “We haven’t been able to get a running start.”

Nor has Congress refunded the plundered money, meaning work against those other diseases also was delayed.

OUR VIEW: CONGRESSIONAL ENDORSEMENTS

14th District: Hultgren U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Winfield, has represented Illinois’ 14th Congressional district since 2011. He faces a Nov. 8 re-election challenge from Democrat Jim Walz of Gurnee.

Hultgren is a staunch fiscal conservative and a strong advocate for families and small businesses.

He understands that our federal government does not have a revenue problem, it has a spending problem.

Hultgren has been a champion on issues important to veterans, supports federal tax reform and believes in a strong U.S. military. He wants a stronger U.S. border with Mexico, is an advocate for Second Amendment rights, and hopes to pass a balanced budget amendment.

Walz is a Warren Township High School District 121 school board member, an avid volunteer and works professionally in sales.

The 14th Congressional District covers most of McHenry County excluding Algonquin, Cary, Lake in the Hills and parts of Crystal Lake.

We endorse Hultgren.

6th District: Roskam

U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam, R-Wheaton, is seeking his sixth term representing Illinois’ 6th Congressional District. He is facing a challenge from Democrat Amanda Howland of Lake Zurich.

A member of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, Roskam lists as his priorities maintaining a strong U.S. national security, fixing what he says is a broken health-care system, demanding accountability from all levels of government, reforming the tax code, and strengthening the American family.

A fiscal conservative, he supports reducing government spending and reforming Medicare.

Howland is a former educator, an attorney and member of the College of Lake County board.

The 6th congressional district encompasses parts of Cook, DuPage, Lake, Kane and McHenry counties, including Algonquin, Cary, Lake in the Hills and parts of Crystal Lake.

Roskam is endorsed.

U.S., Philippines alliance trouble

There is no subtlety about Rodrigo Duterte, the new president of the Philippines. He has waged a brutal campaign against supposed drug dealers and users, killing thousands without due process. On Friday, he compared himself to Hitler in describing his desire to exterminate dealers and addicts. Previously, he crudely insulted President Barack Obama, leading to the cancellation of a meeting between the two, followed by his expression of regret and an informal conversation.

He declared that he would “cross the Rubicon” in his ties with the United States – a longtime ally – and put out a trade and economic welcome mat for “the other side of the ideological barrier,” China and Russia.

On Sept. 26, Duterte said that during a recent summit of East Asian leaders in Laos, he had informed Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev that he was “about to cross the Rubicon” with

the United States. “I would need your help in everything – trade, commerce – and I will open up,” he said he told Medvedev. Asked by a reporter what he meant by “cross the Rubicon,” he said it was “a point of no return.”

What is going on? For starters, Duterte has a big mouth, and in his first months in office he has been unrestrained. He bristled at criticism of the drug war from the United States and Europe.

The anti-drug campaign has been reprehensible, and the criticism deserved.

But at the same time, the relationship between the U.S. and the Philippines is key to the success of a U.S. pivot to Asia, and as an offset to China’s increasingly aggressive expansionism in the South China Sea. The U.S. and the Philippines have a defense treaty dating to 1951, and the Philippines was a major outpost for U.S. forces during the Vietnam War. Although there was a breakdown

over the U.S. bases in 1992, joint exercises continued, and in 2014 the two countries signed a 10-year agreement envisioning a stronger U.S. defense presence in the Philippines. Over the past week, while on a visit to Vietnam, Duterte announced that this month’s joint military exercises with the U.S. would be the last while he is president.

Taken at face value, Duterte’s statements suggest an alarming turn away from the U.S. We notice that, after many of his outrageous comments – the Philippines might leave the United Nations, that U.S. forces have to leave the southern island of Mindanao – his associates and spokesmen have stepped in to say he didn’t really mean quite what he said.

We understand that Duterte has a firebrand style popular at home. But if he implements his threats to degrade the alliance with the U.S., neither nation will benefit.

Best suited for the job

To the Editor: I am writing to support and endorse Paula Yensen and Michael Skala for McHenry County Board from District 5. I have worked with them on various commissions and issues and appreciate their dedication, style and professionalism.

In today’s politically charged environment, some wonder why I would endorse candidates of different political parties. I believe elected officials work for people, not parties, and I want to support those best suited for the job; even more, those who understand people come first, not politics.

Paula Yensen is an individual of integrity and compassion with a desire to serve not issues and institutions, but residents. She works intensely to promote consensus and resolution to the benefit of all.

Michael Skala is a thoughtful, common-sense leader with a commitment to fiscal responsibility and practical solutions. His calm, thorough approach supports sound, unbiased decision-making.

I encourage voters to support them on

VIEWS Rich Miller Last summer, when negotiations with the Urban League were still apparently underway, Rauner impaneled an education funding reform working group and charged it with coming up with a solution to the funding inequities by the first of next year. So, the Urban League’s civil rights lawsuit may actually be why Rauner imposed such an ambitious timetable.

What the administration doesn’t want (along with a whole lot of impacted legislators) is to take the tricky solution out of the hands of the governor and the General Assembly and give it to a Cook County judge. But there’s no guarantee that the governor’s funding reform working group will come to an agreement. A deal is politically complicated because legislators who represent wealthier school districts also tend to oppose tax hikes. But they’ll be forced to choose between losing state cash or voting for higher state taxes. Some might actually welcome judicial intervention to spare them this fate.

Word from inside is that some ISBE legal staff are urging board members to settle the suit. The board’s chief legal

Aren’t getting cheaper

To the Editor: According to the now infamous Willson Method, Steve Willson would lead one to believe that the Crystal Lake Public Library plans on spending $400 per square foot just for a building. Mr. Wilson simply (once again) takes the library’s referendum request and divides that by the total square footage to come up with a comparative structure cost. What Mr. Willson fails to mention is that the overall amount requested includes new FFE (Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment).

The same FFE a business would also pay in addition to the actual commercial structure cost he cites.

Oh, and building a 21st century library ain’t like slapping up a WalMart. I also wonder why a Village of Lakewood resident would be so concerned about Crystal Lake’s library.

Finally, to just repair the current library, it would cost $9.1 million (think about that amount for a moment). Things

counsel, for instance, is a former Chicago Public Schools chief of staff. The city’s school system filed an amicus brief years ago supporting the Urban League case.

Perhaps more importantly, though, a massive amount of supporting data has been compiled since the suit was brought all those years ago, mainly because of state Sen. Andy Manar’s constant push to reform the system.

The plaintiffs might be able to make their case more easily now than they could when their suit was filed. So, the logic goes, a settlement would be far better than a loss.

Superintendent Smith has made no bones about the fact that the state’s funding system is archaic and harmful to minority children, but he apparently hasn’t spoken up in the last couple of private board meetings when members discussed the litigation, and one board member swears Smith is not communicating directly with members about the case. Still, rumors abound that he is driving the settlement talks.

Smith has recently upped his national profile by traveling the country to talk about various education issues. He is not a popular man within the administration for several reasons, and his generous employment contract caused the Rauner folks quite a few headaches last year. Some Republicans claim he’s

angling for a spot in a potential Hillary Clinton administration, which he has denied.

State Board of Education Chairman James Meeks, a former state senator who pushed hard for education funding reform for years and was one of a tiny number of high-profile African-Americans to support Rauner’s 2014 election, has reportedly not taken an official position on the litigation. Meeks is said to be suggesting that board members also talk with the governor’s legal counsel to get another side of the issue. The board insists that Smith doesn’t have the authority to settle the case on his own, and there’s no indication at this moment that he plans to do so.

A settlement would also create a thorny political problem for Rauner down the road. A big chunk of his political base would get the short end of the stick, which won’t go over well when he runs for re-election in 2018.

Ironically, state government got itself dismissed from the case several years ago, so I suppose we could see the administration try to get itself back into the game if the ISBE decides to move forward with a settlement.

Gov. Bruce Rauner attended a meeting last week of his “Cabinet on Children & Youth,” but it’s not known if he pulled aside one of its members, State Superintendent of Education Tony Smith, for a little chat.

The Illinois State Board of Education is reportedly mulling whether to settle a civil rights lawsuit filed eight years ago by the Chicago Urban League. The suit essentially claims that Illinois’ education funding system violates minority students’ rights because a disproportionate number of those kids reside in areas with the lowest property wealth and also attend schools with majority-minority enrollment.

They’re basically getting shafted by the state, so they sued.

According to the Urban League’s CEO Shari Runner, the ISBE “walked away from lengthy settlement talks that we held this summer.” The group has filed a motion for summary judgment and Runner said last week it is “awaiting ISBE’s response.” Runner said the group hopes to “hold ISBE liable for implementing an unlawful and discriminatory school system.”

A settlement would drastically alter the way Illinois funds its school system, with wealthier suburban and downstate districts losing tons of state money. It would also preempt long-stalled legislative action on the topic.

In a tight market, stores lure holiday workers with perks

By ANNE D’INNOCENZIO The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Retailers are dangling perks such as higher pay, extra discounts and more flexible schedules to lure temporary holiday workers in a tighter labor market.

They’re also more determined to lock in their workers earlier. Macy’s and Target are holding their first nationwide recruitment fairs, and others such as consumer electronics chain Hhgregg Inc. are making it easier to apply for temporary holiday jobs via mobile devices.

“It’s a scramble for people, and we have to get creative,” said Hari Pillai, CEO of Speed Commerce, which plans to hire about 450 workers at its warehouses and call centers this season for clients including Yankee Candle. That’s a 50 percent increase over last year.

Pillai noted that he increased pay by 20 percent to 25 percent in tight labor areas such as Ohio.

Some companies are also widening their standards. Significantly more companies said they would be more willing to hire temporary workers with criminal backgrounds than two years ago, according to job listing site Snagajob.com.

“It’s reflecting that people have changed their views on what’s good enough,” CEO Peter Harrison said.

Harrison also noted that many of his retail clients, which include companies such as arts and crafts retailer The Michaels Cos. and Target Corp., want to have their holiday hiring done by the end of October. In the past, it was com-

Government figures show that 2.5 million more Americans have jobs as of August compared to a year earlier. The unemployment rate is 4.9 percent, lower than the 5.1 percent a year ago.

Hiring for the final three months of the year should be level with last year, when retailers added about 738,800 seasonal workers, said John Challenger, chief executive of workplace consultant Challenger, Gray & Christmas. That was down 1.4 percent from the year before.

But while the overall number of jobs for seasonal workers looks to be flat, the

biggest growth area in recent years has been in transportation and warehouse jobs because of the increase in online shopping. Transportation and warehouse employment increased by a nonseasonally adjusted 200,500 workers in November and December last year. Ten years ago, the seasonal job gains for that sector measured just 42,400, according to Challenger’s analysis.

Deloitte expects holiday sales, for the November-through-January period, to increase 3.6 percent to 4 percent, exceeding a trillion dollars. That would compare to 3.6 percent growth last year. And e-commerce business is forecast to rise

17 percent to 19 percent, possibly reaching $98 billion for the holiday season.

But finding the right workers for the season is critical. Having a bad customer service experience during holiday shopping is much worse than having one the rest of the year, said Kevon Hills, vice president of research at StellaService, a customer service analytics company.

“No matter what technology you use, or tools or product, at the heart of the customer service is the people – whether it’s online or in the store,” he said.

Hills noted that retailers have improved their response time in recent years. For example, last holiday season, it took 49 seconds from the first ring to when a customer service representative answers, compared to 71 seconds during the holiday 2013 season, he said.

One of the biggest incentives for workers, of course, is pay. Toys R Us, which is hiring 10,900 seasonal workers in five of its biggest markets, said it’s raising the pay in certain areas. Also new this year: Better compensation for those who work Christmas Eve, according to Alyssa Peera, a spokeswoman at the toy retailer. Traditionally, workers were given increased pay on Thanksgiving. Temporary workers also will get additional discounts and be treated to special after-hour events.

But flexibility is a big draw, too, as stores aim to be more competitive with companies like ride-sharing provider Uber. Pillai said that a few years ago, people who wanted to work just 10 hours a week had a hard time getting holiday jobs. But now, he said, “We will find a role.”

All 8 Harry Potter films returning to theaters

French police officers and a TV crew stand outside the residence of Kim Kardashian West on Monday in Paris. Kardashian West was unharmed after being robbed at gunpoint of more than $10 million worth of jewelry inside a private Paris residence Sunday night, police officials said.

Armed jewelry thieves target Kim Kardashian West in Paris PARIS – Armed robbers forced their way into a private Paris residence where Kim Kardashian West was staying, tied her up and locked her in a bathroom before making off with more than $10 million worth of jewelry, police officials said Monday.

A spokeswoman for Kardashian West said the reality TV star, who was in Paris attending fashion week shows, was badly shaken but physically unharmed.

She left Paris on Monday morning a few hours after the incident, and flew to Teterboro Airport in New Jersey. From there she traveled in a motorcade to her apartment building in downtown Manhattan, where there was a heavy security presence.

Paris police are hunting for five suspected assailants after the robbery, which has raised new concerns about security in the French capital after a string of deadly extremist attacks.

But Johanna Primevert, chief spokeswoman for the Paris police department, said the attack on Kardashian West shouldn’t put off anyone thinking of coming to Paris.

“This kind of incident is extremely rare in Paris. This is a star who is famous worldwide. Do not confuse what happened to Ms. Kardashian and probably was the result of an organized team who had planned their action with the assault of a tourist in front of Notre Dame (cathedral) or another tourist spot in Paris,” Primevert said in an interview with the AP at the Paris police headquarters Monday night.

The police spokeswoman suggested possible imprudence from Kardashian West in showing her valuable jewels on social networks and a possible lack of security in that private residence.

LOS ANGELES – The entire Harry Potter series is set to return to the big screen later this month.

It will mark the first time that the first two films in the series, “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” and “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets,” will be screened in IMAX. The re-release of the Potter films comes ahead of “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them,” a prequel of the Potter series that stars Eddie Redmayne and is set to hit theaters next month.

Lohan says she lost part of finger in boat accident

Lindsay Lohan said she had surgery to reattach part of her finger after a boating accident.

The actress posted a video of her hand with a bandaged ring finger Sunday on Snapchat. She says on the video, “This is the result of me trying to anchor the boat by myself,” adding, “My poor finger!” Lohan explained in a caption on the video that she lost half her finger during the accident. She said the detached piece was found and she had surgery “to fix it.”

The 30-year-old later poked fun at herself on Instagram, posting a picture with the caption, “One handed selfie.”

Lohan didn’t say where or when the ac-

cident happened, but Turkish media report it took place in the southwestern resort town of Bodrum. Private news channel NTV reported that friends recovered the finger and Lohan was rushed to a hospital for surgery.

Lohan was in Istanbul late last month to visit a hospital for Syrian refugees and the home of a refugee family from Aleppo.

John Legend to perform at theater named in his honor

SPRINGFIELD, Ohio – Oscar- and Grammy-winning artist John Legend is set to perform at the dedication of a recently renovated $2.5 million theater that’s named in his honor.

Legend is a graduate of Springfield North High School.

The school board said it probably wouldn’t have taken on the project without Legend’s help.

The Dome now houses several education programs, including the Greater Springfield CareerConnectED Center, where students can explore several areas, including creative arts, digital media and welding.

Wristbands will be distributed in advance of the performance to selected teachers, staff members, community partners and more than 100 students.

TECHNOLOGY ‘Pokemon Go’ fervor has cooled, but game isn’t dead yet

By MAE ANDERSON The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Does “Pokemon Go” have a second act?

The mobile phone app was an instant hit when it debuted in July. Crowds stampeded after a Vaporeon in Central Park and people fell off cliffs playing it in California.

At an Apple event on Sept. 7, Niantic CEO John Hanke said 500 million people had downloaded the game in just two months. It was the first mobile game to go mainstream in a big way since “Candy Crush” in 2014 or “Angry Birds” in 2012. It was also the first to incorporate augmented reality, a blending of the real AP photo “Pokemon Go” players begin a group walk along the Embarcadero in San Francisco. “Pokemon Go” was an instant hit when it debuted in and virtual worlds.

Last Tuesday, the game ended its reign as the top-grossing U.S. iPhone app after 74 days on top, replaced by “Clash Royale,” a popular battling game, according to research firm Sensor Tower. Twitter mentions of the game peaked at 1.7 million on July 11, five days after its launch, according to Adobe Digital Insights. That number had fallen by 98 percent, to 131,000, by Sept. 7, when Apple featured it.

Was it all a summer fever dream?

While experts say the game likely is to remain popular for a while, it needs to evolve to have real staying power – just like its namesake digital creatures.

“Almost anything of this sort is a fad,” said Steve Jones, a communications professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago. “I think we’ve seen the tapering off.”

Down but not out

Of course, an enormous number of people still play the game. Research firm App Annie estimates 1 in 10 smartphone owners in the U.S. are playing; in Japan, that number is 1 in 4. Those U.S. figures are half what App Annie saw the week after the game launched – but to put them in perspective, they still reflect roughly the same

user interest as Twitter or Pinterest.

“Pokemon Go” also has been good at keeping people playing after signing up. Its 30-day retention rate is the second best on the Google Play store – behind “Words with Friends,” but ahead of other popular games such as “Clash of Clans” and “Clash Royale.”

“For a gaming app to be as big as a social network is unprecedented,” said Fabien-Pierre Nicolas, a spokesman at App Annie. “Right now, yes, they’re losing a million players every week.

But they get a million new players every week.”

The longer users interact with the game, the more time a company has to figure out how to get money from them, Nicolas said. It took a year for some successful games like “Clash of Clans,” ‘’Puzzle” and “Dragon” to earn revenue of $1 billion, but “Pokemon Go” already has made more than $500 million in revenue in two months alone, according to App Annie. The game is free, but lets users buy items in the game.

f

us with a valid subpoena or court order, we provide the requested information if it is in our possession,” Apple told The Washington Post in a statement.

“In some cases, we are able to provide data from server logs that are generated from customers accessing certain apps on their devices.”

Apple emphasized because iMessages are encrypted, the company is not able to give police access to the content of conversations. Nor do the message logs “prove that any communication actually took place.”

All of this seems consistent with Apple’s legal process guide, which notes information about your contacts is among the data it may turn over to investigators when served with a court order or subpoena.

Of course, metadata still can be incredibly revealing, especially when analyzed over time: Knowing whom you’re messaging (or even thinking about messaging) can reveal who’s in your social network or expose personal data. For instance, if you’re regularly sending text messages to a suicide crisis line someone reviewing your log could assume you’re having a serious mental health crisis.

That type of privacy concern is among the reasons why civil liberties advocates pushed back so hard on the now defunct National Security Agency program that allowed the government to collect bulk metadata about Americans’ phone calls, including the numbers they dialed and duration of calls.

The Intercept also raised another issue about the logs: They appear to contain IP addresses, which can be used to determine a user’s general location. Revealing that information, The Intercept argues, seems to run counter to a statement Apple made in the wake of Edward Snowden’s revelations about the extent of the NSA’s spying powers. “[W]e do not store data related to customers’ location, Map searches or Siri requests in any identifiable form,” Apple said in the June 2013 statement.

But it’s worth noting the geolocation information that can be determined by IP addresses typically is less specific than what you’d get from GPS data or from looking up a specific address. And Apple’s legal process guide also notes IP addresses are among the information police can request with a court order or subpoena.

When a user sends someone a message through Apple’s iMessage feature, Apple encrypts that message between Apple devices so only the sender and recipient can read its contents. But a report this week from news site The Intercept is a good reminder not all data related to iMessage has that same level of protection – and information still can be turned over to law enforcement authorities.

That may be surprising to everyday users who view Apple as a privacy champion after its legal battle with the Justice Department this year over a court order that would force the company to break its own security measures.

But to experts, it’s just a fact of how communication systems work.

For instance, as security expert and noted iPhone hacker Will Strafach notes, Apple needs to know things such as whom you’re chatting with via iMessage so it can deliver your messages.

According to a document obtained

by The Intercept, Apple logs information about whom you’re contact-

ing in iMessage while the app figures out if the person you are texting also is using an iOS device. If they are using iOS, the message gets encrypted and routed through iMessage, which is signaled by blue chat bubbles. If the recipient is not using an Apple device, the message gets routed as a standard text without that extra layer of encryption, and messages appear in green bubbles in the iMessage app.

According to the document, which The Intercept says originated “from within the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s Electronic Surveillance Support Team,” these logs don’t necessarily show you messaged someone. Instead, they show when you opened up a chat window and selected the contact or entered a phone number.

Apple says those logs are wiped every 30 days. But because that data exists at all, police can use court orders to force the company to hand it over. And, as the Intercept notes, in ongoing investigations it’s possible to extend court orders to get new data, which would allow law enforcement to build a record that goes beyond just 30 days.

Home exercises work well for hip rehab

Of course, this might not work for everyone. Many people who have hip replacement surgery cannot return home right away. That’s especially true if they live alone and have to climb a number of stairs right away. For them, surgery may best be followed by a stay at a rehabilitation facility. There, they can receive supervised physical therapy on a daily basis.

They would be sent home once they were strong and steady enough to get around safely.

This new research should be considered preliminary. First, it included only a small number of study subjects. Also, the results have not yet been published in a peer-reviewed medical journal. More research likely will be needed to confirm the findings. Other studies can help identify who is likely to do well with self-directed rehab.

If the findings of this new study are confirmed, it will be welcome news. Thousands of people having hip replacement surgery no longer will have to trudge back and forth to physical therapy appointments.

Based on my own experience undergoing a hip replacement, I’ll bet this study is basically correct: All those visits to a physical therapist might not be necessary.

On the other hand, not everyone is alike.

Some people will need more therapy visits than others, to master the exercises they need to do at home.

Dear Dr. K: I’m having hip replacement surgery next month. I know I’ll need rehabilitation afterward, but does it matter where I do it?

Dear Reader: It’s been routine after hip replacement surgery to have extensive physical therapy. This rehabilitation therapy, or “rehab,” usually consists of a series of outpatient appointments with a physical therapist, as well as exercises to do at home. The goal of rehab is to improve the strength, stamina and balance of walking.

The visits to the physical therapist usually take place two or three times a week for a month or more. But a new study calls into question the need for all the visits to physical therapists.

The researchers presented their findings at a recent meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. They studied 77 people having hip replacement surgery. Of these, half were randomly assigned to the conventional rehab program, in which they met with a physical therapist two or three times a week for two months.

The rest were taught specific exercises to perform on their own at home for two months.

Here’s what they found: • One month after surgery, there were no major differences in the individuals’ ability to function. “Function” was based on their ability to sit, walk and use stairs, or other measures of daily activities.

• Six months after the surgery, there still was no difference in results.

Changing rehab from supervised appointments to exercising at home could significantly reduce the cost of care. And the convenience of not having to be driven to all those physical therapy visits is an extra bonus. (For the first month or two after hip replacement surgery, you can’t drive yourself.)

hope your sister’s production line produces all boys. (Just kidding.) Your baby items belong to you, not your mother and not your sister. No one is “entitled” to them. If you prefer to give them to your brother’s wife, that’s your privilege. Your reasons seem valid to me.

Dear Abby: I’m 17, and have been in a relationship with “Zane” for three years. We get along beautifully, but of course we have our issues to work through. What upsets me is adults who think our relationship isn’t real because I’m under 18. No, Zane and I don’t have bills to pay or children to raise, but we talk to each other.

That’s what I have always thought is the most important thing between two people.

We have fun together, go to church and have meaningful discussions about almost everything. The only thing my divorced parents agree on is they both love Zane. We know our relationship isn’t perfect, but we’re committed to working on it, becoming closer and understanding each other.

But I keep getting comments from teachers, my friends’ parents, strangers and even Zane’s grandma about how we should be prepared for our romance not to last because we’re so young.

How can I prove to these “non-believers” teens feel love and can have stable relationships, too?

– Seriously In Love In Maine Dear Seriously In Love: The way to prove to “non-believers” they are wrong simply is to continue successfully in your relationship. You appear to be mature, grounded and treat each other well. I don’t know what your plans are for after high school, but if you keep the lines of communication open, I see no reason why this couldn’t lead to marriage one day – and a good one, based on mutual respect and compromise.

Dear Abby: I DEAR ABBY have a brother and a sister. I’m Jeanne the oldest. My Phillips husband and I have a 3-year-old child and no plans for more children.

We have been blessed to be able to afford nice things for our daughter, and I have saved them in the hope of giving them to my brother and his fiancée, who are being married this year. My brother and I are very close, and I love his fiancée. They are not financially well off, so I know it would mean a lot to them.

Now something unexpected has happened.

My sister – the youngest – just announced she’s engaged and is being married in three months.

She plans on having children ASAP, whereas my brother and his fiancée want to wait a year or two after the wedding.

My mom and my sister say whoever has a baby girl first is entitled to all my stuff, but I don’t want to give all my “treasures” to my sister. We have never gotten along, and she wouldn’t appreciate them like my brother would. Am I wrong for feeling the way I do? –

Warren Bennis, a social scientist who died in 2014, said, “There are two ways of being creative. One can sing and dance. Or one can create an environment in which singers and dancers flourish.”

At the bridge table, declarer may have only one way to be creative -- either his line works or it does not.

Much better, though, is when he has two chances to make his contract and can try both. In today’s deal, South receives a trump lead against his seven-spade contract. What should he do?

North used a transfer, showed his second suit, learned that partner had three- or four-card spade support, used two doses of Blackwood, and plunged into the grand slam. (For users of Roman Key Card Blackwood, note that South would have bid six clubs over five no-trump to show the club king. Then North, wanting his partner also to have the heart king, would have bid six hearts to ask his partner to bid seven with that king.

The asker asks and the teller tells.)

South starts with 12 top tricks: five spades, two hearts, two diamonds and three clubs. He seems to need either the heart finesse to work (50-50) or a 3-2 diamond break (67.8 percent).

Today, let’s look at the more likely of the two; tomorrow, the diamonds will not behave.

Declarer draws trumps and cashes dummy’s top diamonds. When they split favorably, he takes his club winners, discarding dummy’s remaining diamonds, ruffs a diamond on the board to establish his last diamond, and claims.

Concussions end starting Oklahoma LB Evans’ career Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops announced Monday that linebacker Tay Evans has been medically disqualified because of concussions and is retiring from football, according to a Yahoo Sports report.

The redshirt sophomore started the Tay Evans Sooners’ first three games and did not play Saturday against TCU. “He’s just had some concussions and the doctors feel it’s in his best interest, moving forward, not to (play),” Stoops said in the Yahoo report. “And so he’s disappointed.

We’re disappointed for him, for sure. You know, it hurts us. The guy had been starting and really had an incredible future, but we want the best for him moving forward in his life, first and foremost.”

Working out the kinks

By JOHN WILKINSON

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – “This is a work day,” Marian Central coach Jim Colvin told his players before Monday’s nonconference match at Prairie Ridge, and each team seemed to have goals it wanted to accomplish in the late-season diversion from conference play.

For the Hurricanes, it was finding some offensive punch, connecting through the midfield while maintaining defensive strength.

“We’re trying to figure out what the right combination is for us,” Colvin said. “We’re not a high goal-scoring team. ... We’re just trying to work on things to work on how we get a good mix of defense and attacking.”

For Prairie Ridge, it was confidence in front of the goal and positive results to start a late-season run.

“For me, a win. We wanted to catch a win,” Prairie Ridge coach Colin Brice said. “We want to start getting hot toward later in the season and going into regionals. We expect to go out and win every game no matter conference or nonconference.”

Each team saw some of what it wanted but walked away not complete-

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Marian Central goal scorer Matt Darbro was playing his second consecutive game at forward after playing most of the season at center back or defensive midfield. Coach Jim Colvin said they “wanted to see if getting a bigger body up there helps us at all.” ly satisfied after a 1-1 draw. Matt Darbro gave Marian an early lead before Prairie Ridge’s Ryan Kaufman tied the score in the final 20 minutes.

The visiting Hurricanes (7-5-3) went ahead in the first 10 minutes. Marian moved quickly out of its own end, and eventually Darbro got into a little

space at the top of the box and struck a shot into the bottom left corner.

“I just saw an opening and I took the chance,” Darbro said. “I took a good touch and had a good strike.”

Over the next 50 minutes, the Wolves pressed forward, outshooting the Hurricanes but coming up with nothing to show for it. Colvin said his team was “basically getting pelted for a long time in the game.”

In the 63rd minute, the Wolves finally found a tying goal. Matthew King sent a corner to the back post where the 6-foot-2 Kaufman knocked it in.

“I thought we had a defensive lapse early, which caused a goal, but after that, I thought defensively played extremely well,” Brice said. “Just struggled in the offensive third and putting the ball in the back of the net.”

The Wolves (3-9-2) had a golden chance to win the game in the 72nd minute when a cross came to Warren Ndawula, unmarked at close range in the box, but the senior redirected the ball over the crossbar.

“Coming back from a 1-0 deficit is definitely [encouraging], and I thought our boys played well, just needed to finish, and that’s been our struggle all season,” Brice said.

PREP ROUNDUP

NORTHWEST HERALD

By DAVID MERCER

The Associated Press

CHAMPAIGN – Work could begin in early 2018 on a $132 million project to build new football offices, locker rooms and training facilities at the University of Illinois’ Memorial Stadium, athletic director Josh Whitman said Monday.

The school’s Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is raising money for the project that also will include renovating seating areas on two sides of the stadium, he said. It is in the process of hiring an architect before asking university trustees for approval, likely next spring, Whitman said.

He emphasized that the project will include no state money, instead relying on donations and revenue generated by the school’s sports operations.

Whitman emphasized those funding sources at a

time when the state has no budget and public universities have received only a fraction of the state funding they typically would get over the past year.

The school, however, would not sell naming rights as it did for the renovation of the basketball arena, now known as the State Farm Center.

The project would come after $121 million in renovations completed in 2008 and help Illinois build on momentum that began this year when Lovie Smith was hired as head coach in March, Whitman said.

“Our goal is to be in a position to compete for a national championship,” said Whitman, who became AD in February.

The stadium changes should help Smith attract better recruits, Whitman said. Illinois has had only four winning teams in the past 15 seasons.

Inside Girls Volleyball ATHLETE OF THE WEEK AVA PAULY McHenry, sr., OH Pauly helped lead the Warriors to third place in the Schwartzwalder Classic at IMSA in Aurora, as McHenry went 3-0 in pool play with sweeps over Joliet Central, Westmont and Leyden. McHenry fell to Leyden in the semifinals and beat Aurora Christian, 25-20, 25-15, in the third-place match.

Pauly was the team-leader with 32 kills and 10 aces in five matches and added 33 digs on defense. The senior also had a team-high eight kills and 11 digs in a 25-13, 23-25, 25-16 loss to Cary-Grove last week.

The Warriors (13-13, 3-8 FVC) already have three Fox Valley Conference wins this year after winning only two over the previous three years.

NOTEWORTHY Eye opener: Hampshire took third in its own tournament Saturday, finishing 3-2 and beating Burlington Central in the third-place match. First-year coach Lauren Jensen said the eight-team tournament was good for her team as they continue to navigate their difficult FVC schedule.

At last year’s invitational, Hampshire took fourth.

Hampshire lost to Richmond-Burton in the semifinals. The Whips (8-12) are 3-8 in the FVC with their next three conference matches coming against Crystal Lake Central, Huntley and Crystal Lake South.

“Harvest Christian is a good team to take this whole tournament,” Jensen said. “Serve-receive really struggled for us against [R-B]. “When you can’t execute the first ball off the serve, you’re not going to come out on top.”

“We’ve got big matches coming up. We beat South the first time around, so we’re just hoping to pull through again and make a statement.”

Riley Seagren leads the Whip-Purs this season with 51 kills, followed by Maggie Seagren (48) and Gianna Garza (46). Sam Berggren leads the defense with 157 digs, Sophie Holtz has 101 assists and Olivia Magnussen has 71 blocks.

Halverson spike: R-B’s Addie Halverson spiked a ball into the face of a Harvest Christian player in the final of the Hampshire Invitational.

After a brief delay, the player, senior setter Hannah Murray, was removed from the match and tested for a concussion, Lions coach Mike Bui said.

“She got rocked pretty hard,” Bui said. “I didn’t even see the ball, that’s how hard it got hit. I thought it was a broken nose. In the first game, that hit took a lot out of us.”

After losing the opening set, the Lions recovered and won the second and third sets for the tournament title.

4 WHITE SOX

Renteria hopes to amp up ‘intensity’

Ventura replaced as manager by his bench coach

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN

dvanschouwen@suntimes.com

CHICAGO – Rick Renteria is managing in Chicago again. This time, on the South Side of town.

The White Sox on Monday named Renteria as the 40th manager in club history, replacing Robin Ventura, who – it was revealed at Renteria’s introductory news conference at U.S. Cellular Field – decided in August a change was for the best. Ventura, whose contract expired, managed his last game Sunday after five seasons.

Renteria, hired by the Theo Epstein regime but fired with two years left on his Cubs contract after the 2014 season when Joe Maddon became available, sat out of baseball during the 2015 season before returning as Ventura’s bench coach this season. He managed the Cubs to a 73-89 record during a rebuilding year.

The Sox were 375-435 under Ventura, including 78-84 this year, the team’s fourth straight losing season and eighth

Rick Renteria poses at home plate after being announced as the 40th manager of the White Sox at a news conference Monday at U.S. Cellular Field. in a row without going to the postseason. The Sun-Times first reported Saturday that Renteria would be named as his replacement Monday.

“It is a great honor as well as a great responsibility,” Renteria said. “Over the past season as Robin’s bench coach, I have gotten to know the players and staff very well.

MLB NOTES

PHOENIX – The Arizona Diamondbacks have parted ways with general manager Dave Stewart and manager Chip Hale after a second consecutive losing season.

The team announced Monday it will discuss an appropriate role for Chief Baseball Officer Tony La Russa in the future.

La Russa was hired by the Diamondbacks in 2014 and among his first moves was to bring in Stewart and Hale, elevating them to positions they had never held at the big-league level before.

After finishing 79-83 last season, Arizona had upgraded expectations this year after signing 2009 AL Cy Young Award winner Zack Greinke to a $206 million contract and adding right-

thing you can assure yourself is, your team has to go out there and play the game a certain way. You can’t just play as everybody else does. Advancing runners, getting guys in from third base.

You can’t play on the same level as everybody else. You have to be better. And that’s the challenge for us we’re going to have to overcome.”

No other staff changes were announced, but there will be at least one addition with the bench coach position open. One possibility for Renteria’s staff, while perhaps not for the bench job but another position, is Doug Dascenzo, who was hired on to Renteria’s Cubs staff as a first base coach. Dascenzo is a Cubs minor league outfield and baserunning instructor.

Renteria again expressed no ill will toward the Cubs, even though he was unceremoniously let go when Maddon became available.

“I definitely appreciated the opportunity that was given to me,” he said. “I wouldn’t take that away for anything.”

Renteria and Hall of Famer Johnny Evers are the only managers in history to manage games for the Sox and the Cubs. Evers managed the Sox in 1924 and the Cubs in 1913 and 1921. The Cubs thing might rub a Sox fan the wrong way, and Hahn gets that. But this wasn’t an issue for Hahn.

“This is about hiring the best guy,” he said.

Shakeup for Diamondbacks; Rockies manager Weiss out The ASSOCIATED PRESS

“We want to field a team that plays smart baseball, takes advantage of any opportunity within the game, and competes hard in a way that makes White Sox fans proud of our team’s effort.”

General manager Rick Hahn said there may have been other candidates as qualified as Renteria out there but none were deemed better, and Renteria’s familiarity with the team’s personnel, its coaching staff and organization turned the decision in his favor.

“He is very well-respected throughout this game, has an incredibly high baseball IQ and a tireless work ethic, which everyone is aware of,” Hahn said. “He has the ability to communicate across a multicultural clubhouse and is already extremely well-respected within that room.”

Renteria, 54, becomes the only Latino manager in baseball. Before managing the Cubs, he had 30 years of baseball experience, including three as bench coach (2011 to ’13) and three as first base coach (2008 to ’10) with the San Diego Padres. Before that, he spent eight years as a minor league manager in the Padres and Marlins farm systems.

“I’m hoping to bring in a little more intensity,” said Renteria, who also views himself as positive, detail-oriented field leader.

“Everybody puts together a club and goes to spring training very optimistic about what’s going to happen. The one

The Diamondbacks finished 69-93 to miss the playoffs for the fifth consecutive season.

Weiss out in Colorado: At Denver, the relationship between Walt Weiss and his general manager deteriorated over the past several months. He and Jeff Bridich certainly see eye-to-eye on this: The Colorado Rockies have quite a few of the pieces in place to be a contender.

Next step, finding a new manager.

Weiss is out as manager of the Rockies after four seasons. In a statement Monday, the Rockies said Weiss decided to step down. However, he really didn’t have a job to come back to because his contract expired after the season finale.

The Cubs’ Kyle Schwarber walks on the field before the team’s home opener against the Cincinnati Reds on April 11 at Wrigley Field. Schwarber suffered a season-ending knee injury four days earlier in Arizona. to the lineup, might have impressed the organization as much with his approach and attitude this year, as he has stayed in Chicago for his rehab work since that injury in the third game of the season.

In addition to a full schedule of physical work, he has participated in planning meetings with pitchers and catchers, soaked up what he could in the team’s war room on draft day, and helped as much as he is allowed with video and scouting breakdowns of opponents.

“I like to try to do as much as I can,” he said.

That was part of the idea in having him stay in Chicago instead of spending the year in Mesa, Arizona, doing his rehab work. More important was the relationship building the Cubs wanted to see continue with a player they consider so big a part of their future that he became their only untouchable prospect during trade talks with the Yankees that

eventually landed closer Aroldis Chapman.

“It’s very important to have him stay connected like that for next year,” manager Joe Maddon said in recent weeks.

“Everybody knows what he’s all about.

He’s all about winning.”

That has made sitting out such a huge year, and the postseason to come, especially difficult for the fourth overall pick in the 2014 draft.

“Looking at him, you couldn’t tell if it’s been tough on him, he’s just been so strong,” teammate Kris Bryant said.

“Just a really good teammate through everything. But I’m sure it’s eating at him. He wants to be on the field.”

Schwarber, who’s not sure whether he’ll make his return to games during winter ball or spring training, said he’s just trying to keep his focus on being in the best shape of his life with a healthy knee in February.

The Cubs won 103 games without

him this year, but everybody from the front office to Maddon to teammates talks about how much he’s been missed.

And he’ll start traveling with the club during the playoffs.

“Oh, my goodness, if he was in this lineup the whole year, I think we could have won at least 10 more games,” Bryant said. “He’s a game-changer. I’m glad we’ll have him back next year.”

Schwarber long ago shed the crutch, and he has begun to jog. But don’t count on any dramatic comeback in the playoffs, no matter how long the Cubs play.

“No chance,” said Schwarber, echoing what team officials have said multiple times over the past month.

Besides, he said, “It wouldn’t be fair to the other players. These guys have grinded out 162, and I wouldn’t even be close to being ready to play a major league baseball game. And the way they’re playing this year, they’re fine without me.”

Except they don’t look at it that way.

And they’re certainly not without him.

“Everyone here has seen how diligent he’s been in his work to come back and get healthy for us and be ready for next season,” pitcher Jake Arrieta said.

“He’s been with us all year. He’s one of the guys.”

Record shows it: Without Fowler, Cubs were .500 team

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

Nobody, including Cubs players, saw it coming – especially after news reports 3,000 miles away said it wasn’t.

But then Dexter Fowler showed up with team president Theo Epstein in the middle of morning workouts a week into spring training, shocking teammates with the sudden reunion.

And just like that, these 2016 Cubs who produced 103 wins, seven AllStars and untold levels of expectations

were in business.

“That was a big part of our season,” manager Joe Maddon said as the Cubs head to the playoffs with Fowler taking their first postseason hacks for the second straight year. “Had we not done that, we would have been in a lurch, Dexter Fowler no question.”

Re-signing the center fielder on a one-year contract – the day after the

Orioles thought they had a three-year deal in place – meant the Cubs could put Gold Glove right fielder Jason Heyward back in his natural position, and it made losing outfielders Kyle Schwarber and Jorge Soler to the DL for lengthy stretches more manageable.

Not to mention this: The switch-hitting leadoff man played at a level this season that produced his career-high on-base percentage (.393) and his first All-Star selection. And when he went on the DL with a hamstring injury in

June, the Cubs – two days later – began their worst 20-game stretch of the season (5-15).

Upon his return July 22, they went 46-21 (.687) the rest of the way.

In all, the Cubs were 85-40 (.680) when he played – 18-18 when he didn’t.

“Overall, when I say, ‘You go, we go,’ it’s true,” said Maddon of his pet phrase to Fowler when the veteran heads to the plate. “And I say that to him sometimes: I’ll point at him and say, ‘It’s true.’ And he knows what I’m talking about.”

• Tuesday, October 4, 2016

Kyle Schwarber has spent every home game this season in full uniform, on the Cubs’ bench at Wrigley Field, even though he has gotten no closer to the playing field during a game than the moment he hobbled on one crutch to the foul line for Opening Day introductions – to a standing ovation.

But it’s been only these past few games as the season reached the fall and the imminence of the playoffs became as palpable as the renewed chill in the air that the memories have started to flood through Schwarber’s mind.

“Definitely they do,” said the Cubs’ young slugger.

A year ago as a rookie, Schwarber was a second-half force and the Cubs’ power-hitting playoff hero, setting a franchise record with five postseason home runs as the Cubs rolled to the National League Championship Series.

Now, six months to the day since he suffered a season-ending knee injury on an outfield collision in Phoenix, Schwarber will be back on the bench in uniform Friday when the Cubs open this year’s playoffs – the video board with his legendary Game 4 home run ball against the Cardinals still encased on top where it landed staring back at him from right field.

“As this time has rolled around, it definitely brings back memories for me since I’m out,” said Schwarber, who quickly pivots to dispel any sense of self-pity. “But watching these guys play every day and seeing how they go about their business, it’s all really good stuff. I feel if they keep doing what they’re doing, having fun, separating the added ‘pressures’ that we have, we’ll be just fine.”

6 PRESEASON: BUCKS 93, BULLS 91

Bulls fall short in preseason opener

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – There were moments.

Then again, that was to be expected heading into Monday’s preseason opener against the Bucks.

The Dwyane Wade “from Chicago” entrance was met with a roar from the United Center crowd. The offensive flurry to start the game that put Milwaukee in an 8-0 hole couldn’t have been scripted any better. Jimmy Butler’s aggressiveness in getting to the free throw line looked to be in midseason form.

Heck, Wade even did his best to silence critics that felt like he was allergic to hitting 3-pointers, nailing both that he took in the first half.

So those moments definitely were alive and well.

The concern with this latest version of the Bulls, however, is will they be capable of having enough moments this season?

That’s what continues to keep coach Fred Hoiberg up at night.

That 8-0 lead quickly was erased.

Turnovers and blown defensive assignments that were seen far too often last season once again made themselves right at home, and the bench continued to look inconsistent.

Cup half full? Opening night jitters in the 93-91 loss.

Cup half empty? Same old diminishing product.

“Obviously, it will take time,” said Butler, who finished with 13 points. “But I think we’re buying in, we’re studying each other’s games, and we’re talking about everything out there. Even when practice is over we’re watching film and talking about how we can make each other better.

“I think that’s the big thing. How can we make each other shine out there on the floor?”

Playing with the intensity the starting group did early on was a good start.

Taj Gibson, who got the start ahead of Nikola Mirotic, tipped off the night the right way, hitting a short jumper for the first basket of the new preseason, and then Butler, Robin Lopez and Rajon Rondo each took turns making baskets for the 8-0 run.

Eight turnovers in that first quarter, however, put the Bulls (0-1) in a 25-21 hole after 12 minutes, and by the half they had 12 turnovers and were down 13.

Wade, who finished with six points,

“I’m trying to catch up,” Wade said.

“It’s a lot of stuff. This is all new to me.

I’ve been in one place 13 years, so everything is new. I’m out here like the young guys trying to figure it out. Obviously, I do pick it up fast because I’ve been doing it so long, but when you’re competing, we’re all competitive and there are times when everyone gets frustrated.

“Everyone’s helping each other out, and that’s the way it has to be.”

Wade, who spent the previous 13 NBA seasons in Miami, had more than just learning a new system to deal with Monday. He also was dealing with his first debut with the hometown team he grew up idolizing.

However, the 34-year-old said that wasn’t an issue.

“For me, it’s just another preseason game,” Wade said. “Everything for me is different surroundings. But it’s still basketball. Nothing has changed from that standpoint.”

And as if the final score wasn’t disappointing enough, the Bulls also saw Denzel Valentine’s night cut short, when the rookie had to leave the game with a sprained left ankle.

According to Hoiberg, the injury was not deemed serious.

Tootoo brings toughness, confidence, little offense

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com Spend a few minutes with Jordin Tootoo, and it becomes clear why teammates around the league speak so highly of him, and why Brent Seabrook and Duncan Keith spent a few days this summer selling him on the Blackhawks.

Tootoo bears the physical scars of 10 years as an NHL enforcer and doesn’t try to hide the emotional scars of years of alcohol abuse. As a result, he projects a clear-eyed calm and undeniable confidence borne of a tumultuous past and a life-changing turn toward sobriety six years ago.

“When you look out for yourself off the ice, it leads into what you bring on the ice,” Tootoo said. “My lifestyle has changed over the last six years, obviously, being sober. And I think when you’re comfortable and content in your own skin, you have a lot of confidence.”

What Tootoo doesn’t have is a lot of offensive upside, something the Hawks desperately need up front. He did score 10 goals in 68 games two seasons ago but has only 63 in 673 career games.

His signing this summer raised some eyebrows in hockey circles, and certainly among Hawks fans. Yes, Tootoo can step into that Andrew Shaw role as an agitating, physical presence who plays bigger than his 5-foot-9 frame and

Hjalmarsson suspended for hit

Niklas Hjalmarsson was suspended for the rest of the preseason and the season opener Oct. 12 for his high hit on St Louis’ Ty Rattie on Saturday. In a video detailing the suspension, director of player safety Patrick Burke said Hjalmarsson “launches up and into his head, making significant contact with Rattie’s head.”

In other news, the Hawks made another round of cuts Monday. The notable demotions to Rockford were defensemen Erik Gustafsson and Ville Pokka, and center Tanner Kero.

is unafraid to drop the gloves when necessary. But he’s unlikely to replace Shaw’s goal production.

Still, Tootoo knows he needs to be more than just a fighter. During his career, the traditional enforcer has been slowly phased out of the NHL. As the league has changed, so has Tootoo.

“Obviously, this day and age, the game has evolved,” he said. “You can’t just be a one-dimensional player. I know I can be put in different situations. But my foundation is being a physical presence out there, creating room not only for myself, but for my linemates. It’s just picking and choosing your spots, and being a good teammate.”

8 BEARS

Fox won’t commit to Cutler keeping job

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com John Fox is not doing anything to put to rest the idea of a Bears quarterback controversy.

During his Monday news conference, the Bears’ coach was asked about what will guide his decision at the most important position on the field when Jay Cutler returns from a thumb sprain.

“Well, I think we’ll evaluate it just like we do every position on the football team,” he said. “I think Jay has played a lot of good football. In fact, in the cutups watching Detroit in last year’s two games, I thought he played pretty well. We’ll evaluate it like everything. Right now, I don’t like getting into speculation and predictions because we’ll know more on Wednesday.”

Brian Hoyer was efficient in Sunday’s win over the Lions, completing 28 of 36 passes for 302 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions, good for a passer rating of 120.1. Hoyer has thrown 97 passes in three games (two starts) without an interception “I think it’s performance-based,” Fox said. “So anybody that’s performing well, I don’t think we’re going to be likely to change.”

Fox said Cutler is week-to-week and there is no timeline on his return. Before spraining his thumb, Cutler had completed 60.9 percent of his passes, thrown one touchdown and two interceptions. His passer rating is 75.7.

Hoyer did perform well against a

Last season, while with the Texans, 116.6 in that game.

This is the final year of guaranteed Hoyer completed 77.4 percent of his passes for 312 yards in a 27-20 loss to money in the contract Cutler signed the Colts. He had a passer rating of after the 2013 season.

Vikes deny Beckham, mystify Manning

three catches. Victor Cruz and Sterling Shepard were quiet, too, and Manning was erratic as ever while finishing 25 for 45 for 261 yards. Rhodes picked him off in the third quarter, the 15th interception for Manning in eight career starts against the Vikings. He’s 2-6 with only five touchdown passes.

Matt Asiata and Jerick McKinnon each ran for a touchdown as the Vikings rushed for a season-high 104 yards. Bradford went 26 for 36 for 262 yards.

The Vikings, who have allowed only 50 points in four games, have an NFL-best turnover margin of plus-10.

The Giants (2-2) dropped to minus-8.

MINNEAPOLIS – Minnesota’s defense denied Odell Beckham Jr. all night and forced two turnovers that led to 10 points, and the Vikings mystified Eli Manning again during a 2410 victory Monday over the New York Giants.

Sam Bradford threw a touchdown pass to tight end Kyle Rudolph for the third straight game and kept his turnover-free streak intact, helping the Vikings (4-0) lead from start to finish after falling behind in each of their first three wins.

Beckham, who has yet to score this season, was smothered by cornerback MONDAYS WITH MOSS Xavier Rhodes and had 23 yards on Former Vikings receiver Randy

Moss, at the game as an analyst for ESPN, blew the ceremonial Gjallarhorn before kickoff to get the crowd going early.

Fifteen years ago, Moss caught three touchdown passes on a Monday night game as the Vikings beat the Giants, 28-16.

STRUGGLING SECONDARY

The Giants’ defensive backs are so depleted by injuries that receivers were playing safety in practice this week.

Andrew Adams, promoted from the practice squad last week, started at safety for Nat Berhe. Trevin Wade started at cornerback for Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and struggled all game.

Do you sometimes feel people are mumbling or not speaking clearly? Do you find it difficult to follow a conversation in a noisy restaurant or crowded room? If so you might be interested in some recent findings.

The most common type of hearing loss is sensorineural, in which the inner ear becomes damaged.

Sound travels through the ear canal, the ear drum (tympanic membrane), the middle ear, and is transmitted to the inner ear (cochlea). As sound-generated vibrations enter the cochlea, they cause microscopic hair cells to vibrate, which in-turn transmit neuro-electrical impulses to the brain.

When these hair cells become damaged, they cannot vibrate in the appropriate way. The resulting impulses to the brain are dampened or garbled, making comprehension difficult or impossible.

Damage to hair cells is irreparable. But compensation is possible.

It took years for your brain to learn to interpret the meaning of sounds. If the neurons that carry signals to the brain are experiencing prolonged lack of stimulation because of damaged hair cells (auditory deprivation), they degenerate, leaving dead regions where certain sound frequencies can no longer be interpreted. In other words, “use it or lose it” applies to hearing too. Fortunately, recent advances in digital hearing technology make it possible to detect damaged and dead regions within the inner ear. Using “visual speech mapping” and “real ear measurement” processes, the highly trained audiologists and hearing instrument specialists at AccuQuest Hearing Centers (a national network of over 190 locations) can target regions of frequency loss and compensate for damaged hair cells. This targeted stimulation of neurons can aid in making speech comprehensible again.

Hearing loss, regardless of degree, can interfere with one’s ability to participate in a world that greatly depends on communication for social, educational, and occupational activities. Not all hearing loss can be fixed with hearing aids, but there’s a good chance we can help you with yours. Please give us a chance to help before your loss worsens.
