Non-fan comes to terms with success of the Cubs

I can’t believe I’m even thinking this: I want the Cubs to win the World Series.

And I loathe the Cubs. Always have. Probably always will.

But I’m pulling for the Cubs to win the World Series and finally get rid of that silly old curse.

Then the Cubs become just another team in Major League Baseball. No longer will they be the Loveable Losers. The adorable Cubbies. No longer will their fans’ rally cry be “Wait till next year.”

It’s been 108 years since the Cubs last won the World Series, the longest drought in U.S. sports history. It’s time to wipe the slate clean and bring home a World Series title. Let the champagne flow.

Me? I’m a Minnesota Twins fan, and lately that’s been tough. They finished the season with a near mirror record of the Cubs, losing 103 games to the Cubs winning 103 games. These have been lean years for the Twins, but they provided enough fun in 1987 and 1991, when they beat the St. Louis Cardinals and the Atlanta Braves, respectively, in the World Series.

The 1991 Series may have been one of the greatest ever played. And while it’s been 25 years, it seems like just yesterday. The World Series has that kind of effect.

Not that Cubs fans would know.

I’ve lived in McHenry County for 35 years, and in recognition of living in the Chicago suburbs, you have to choose a baseball team to root for, the Cubs or the White Sox, one over the other. And I choose the White Sox, winners of the 2005 World Series, having gone 88 years between World Series championships. When the Twins are doing badly and the Sox are winning, I’ll pull for the Sox, except they’ve fallen on hard times, too. When they’re both doing badly, I’ll root for the Twins.

I’m an American League fan, and naturally pull for the American League in the World Series, unless it is represented by the New York Yankees, another team I loathe, but for altogether different reasons than the Cubs. The Yankees spend lots of money to assemble World Series caliber teams, and they simply win far too often.

What happened to the Yankees this year? Fourth place in their division. Shucks.

If I have to choose a team in the National League to back, it’s the Cardinals. They were gracious enough to lose to the Twins in the 1987 World Series, and the cardinal is my favorite bird, and I like the Cardinals to spite the Cubs.

They are archrivals. So who better to root for than their greatest enemy?

WHERE IT’S AT

VIEWS Dick Peterson The Cubs didn’t catch anyone by surprise this year. Going into the 2016 season, they were the team to beat. They were the odds-on favorite to win the World Series. And they proved they were a team to be reckoned with, opening the season with a 25-6 record – off to the races and never really looking back. They hit some minor midseason doldrums, but they were back in form in August and down the stretch, clinching the divisional championship with three weeks to play in the season. And they easily finished with the best record in baseball.

Last year, when the Cubs folded against the Mets four games to zip in the National League Championship Series, I predicted nothing but gloom for the Cubs. Their rallying cry of “wait till next year” rang hollow. Next year was never, I said. This team is doomed to disappoint its fans for years to come. But that 25-6 start gave me pause. This team was for real. Maybe next year had arrived.

The Cubs have the pitching to carry them.

The starting rotation for the divisional series is stellar, with Jon Lester (19-5), Kyle Hendricks (16-8), Jake Arrieta (18-8) and John Lackey (11-8), with fifth starter Jason Hammel (15-10) thrown in for good measure. The Cubs’ infield started for the National League in the All-Star game, with Anthony Rizzo at first, Ben Zobrist at second, Kris Bryant at third and Addison Russell at shortstop. And they have the best, most quotable manager in baseball in Joe Maddon who knows how to keep his team loose.

What’s not to like?

I’m not on the Cubs’ bandwagon. I’m merely an interested baseball fan, ready to see sports’ worst record for futility fall to the wayside. The Boston Red Sox ended an 86-year World Series drought in 2004, and the White Sox followed the next year, winning the World Series after going 88 years without a championship. It’s the Cubs’ turn. It’s now or never.

I hate to say this, but I’ll be disappointed if they don’t. And I loathe the Cubs. Yikes.

A TASTE OF THE REAL WORLD Prairie Ridge students get hands-on experience in business incubator course

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Budding student entrepreneurs attending Prairie Ridge High School now have a chance to see what it takes to make their dreams of a company or product a reality.

Modeled after the program created and started by Barrington High School, the Community High School District 155 school launched INCubator Edu at the beginning of the school year. The yearlong course provides students with the opportunity to create and fully develop their own product or service.

Students will learn planning, business regulation, finances, legal, sales and marketing.

Entrepreneurs and business experts in the McHenry County community are serving as volunteer coaches and mentors to guide the student teams as they work from ideation to product development.

The end goal? Present the idea or product to a panel of local entrepreneurs and business leaders with a “Shark Tank”-style pitch at the end of the year.

Marengo celebrates Settlers’ Days

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com MARENGO – A carnival, car show, flea market and more activities took place Saturday afternoon in downtown Marengo for the 46th annual Settlers’ Days.

Many people walked to the festival in the sunny, 60-degree weather.

At the carnival, Anna Dunek watched her children and grandchildren spin on the “Sizzler” ride. Dunek grew up in the city, and for the past 16 years she’s held an open house at her home during Settlers’ Days.

“Everybody comes home, and you get to see people you don’t see often,” Dunek said.

Her daughter, Andrea Dunek, lives in St. Louis, but comes back to Marengo every year for the festival.

“I feel like it’s our hometown’s pride and glory,” Andrea Dunek said.

Teen charged with DUI after driving into creek

hprokop@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – A 17-year-old boy was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol Friday after he drove off the Western Algonquin Bypass and landed his vehicle in a creek, police said.

Algonquin police officer Andrea Treml said police and Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District were called to the scene about 11:30 p.m. Friday.

• INCUBATOR

Continued from page A3 Bryan Peckhart, the instructor for the course, said he wants every student to be able to network and learn from people who are “content specialists.” Currently, 48 students are enrolled in two sections that run for the entire school year. This program is the first of its kind in McHenry County.

Peckhart said after visiting Barrington High School three years ago to see its incubator program, he was convinced it was something Prairie Ridge needed. After the program initially was approved, he and industry and careers department head Kevin Koeppen went out into the community to build networks and relationships with potential mentors and coaches.

Scott Codute, vice president, area central, at Porsche Cars North America Inc., is one of the coaches for the course. He said the class prepares students well for both college and life after education, especially learning soft skills such as eye contact and firm handshakes.

“It’s a great introduction for stu-

‘‘

dents into business and real life,” Codute said.

The classroom, an open space designed for students to collaborate, create and innovate, features a conference room, several HD monitors, mobile furniture and whiteboard walls. The room also has cubbies for students to put their things at the beginning of each course so they are able to feel as if they are leaving school and entering a business-like environment.

Senior Emmanuel Ebirim said he first heard about the course last year from Peckhart. The 17-year-old said he is interested in running his own business one day and knew the course was something he “wanted to have under his belt.”

“This is everything you’ll use in real life,” Ebirim said.

His group’s idea is a shower mat marketed to college students who are living in dorms or other communal living, and do not want to wear flip flops or shower without shoes.

Jacqueline Kohlmann, a junior student in the class, said although she is interested in medicine, she wants to have a solid business background moving forward and believes the course will be a good start in doing so.

“As a 16-year-old, you don’t always get to learn from business professionals,” Kohlmann said.

Senior Carl Frasor, who also is president of the Future Business Leaders of America, said he is interested in international business and is looking forward to the hands-on experience the course will provide for each student.

Peckhart said he looks forward to seeing how the students grow throughout the year in their presentation skills and overall understanding of the real world.

“It’s not about having the next Google or Facebook. It’s about developing soft skills … learning how to apply stuff that’s real and tangible,” Peckhart said.

WOODSTOCK – Police pension costs will rise 22 percent in the upcoming year, and city officials are concerned about financial sustainability.

The city of Woodstock met recently to discuss the annual funding request from the police pension board, which is at roughly $1.4 million – a 22 percent increase from last year.

The discussion is one of the beginning steps toward building a budget and determining a levy amount. The request is based on actuarial reports, and funding levels are mandated by the state.

“This rate of growth is unsustainable in the long term,” City Manager Roscoe Stelford said. “Ultimately, there has to be some change, and it has to be done at a state level.”

Pension payments are included in the city’s tax levy, last set at $9.1 million. The increased cost will be absorbed by the city and likely won’t impact the overall tax levy, said Paul Christensen, assistant city manager and finance director.

“We haven’t determined what the

levy will be, but City Council is 100 percent committed to not increase taxes beyond new growth,” he said. “This will likely go beyond new growth, and we will have to absorb it out of existing revenue.”

The issue is politically heated, but a conversation has to be had about potential change, said council member Mike Turner.

“The politics of this is, if you speak out against it you are speaking out against cops, and that is a false premise,” he said. “The reality is that our residents and businesses are paying the $9.1 million we ask, and now we are up to a substantial amount going toward this. It’s not sustainable.”

City officials have little control over state mandates, and many other communities will face similar problems as time goes on, Mayor Brian Sager said.

“We are going to find many communities, including the city of Woodstock, that are going to be faced with increasing [debt] in regards to this fund,” Sager said. “It’s going to be a challenge for us.

We have to think about this. We have to plan, and frankly we have to work with our state legislators to effect change.”

Josh Homuth said that while the festival is family-friendly, it also has events for adults.

He was looking forward to Saturday Night on Main Street, when the road is shut down for food and drink vendors and performers.

Saturday night usually sees the highest attendance with about 2,000

people, festival chairman Ben Broughton said.

“After growing up here, [fall] is my favorite time of year because of Settlers’ Days,” Broughton said.

“It’s nice fall weather, and you’ve got all those great events.

“People will use Settlers’ Days as a good time for a high school reunion, that kind thing.”

One of the highlights for Broughton is the parade Sunday, which has more than 100 entries this year, he said.

HUNTLEY – Huntley police officials are urging residents living in the Sun City community to remain vigilant as daytime burglaries are being reported.

The majority of these break-ins, which have occurred since 2011, occur between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. shortly after the homeowner leaves his or her residence, according to a news release from the Huntley Police Department.

The alleged suspects reportedly travel throughout the entire Chicago area and are considered to be very difficult to apprehend, police said. Huntley residents are encouraged to be vigilant in preventing these crimes.

The Huntley Police Department has increased patrols and surveillance in

the affected area, has coordinated with jurisdictions investigating similar crimes and is offering free home security surveys to any Huntley resident.

Police said the alleged burglars have been both men and women who are about 35 to 55 years old. They also “blend in well with the neighborhood” and typically drive rented SUVs or vans, police said. At times, those participating may have accomplices who walk through the neighborhood talking on a cellphone to help them select a target.

Once they enter the home they usually go to the master bedroom and take jewelry and cash, often avoiding items that can be identified with serial numbers, police said.

Those who see suspicious activity should call 911 immediately so police can respond.

14 LAKE IN THE HILLS

Fire district seeks tax increase referendum

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – A referendum to add a new property tax for the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District will be back on the ballot in November after it failed in the March election.

Fire Chief Peter Van Dorpe said the referendum hasn’t changed, asking for a 0.1 percent emergency and rescue tax, which would add about $65 on the property tax bill of the owner of a $200,000 house.

District officials have said the money is needed because of a loss of revenue from the commercial fire alarm business and added costs from the Affordable Care Act. Without more funds, the estimated 40,000 residents the department serves in Algonquin and Lake in the Hills will see reduced service, Van Dorpe said.

“We’re very transparent,” Van Dorpe said. “You can see the whole budget on our website. We simply need more

“We simply need more money if we’re going to continue to provide the level of service we are providing today.”

In March, the referendum was rejected by 53.2 percent of voters. If the tax is passed, it would generate about $800,000 a year, Van Dorpe said.

To keep a balanced budget, Van Dorpe said he’s already had to cut administrative staff in half and reduce equipment. The department also is not setting aside any extra money, he said, and has 15 on-duty personnel, lower

CRYSTAL LAKE – Democratic 6th Congressional District candidate Amanda Howland will be in town Tuesday to meet with constituents.

Howland, who is running against Republican incumbent Peter Roskam, will hold what she is calling a “town hall-type conversation with neighbors” at 7 p.m.

Tuesday at Colony One Club House, 680 Cress Creek Lane. Snacks and beverages will be served.

Howland, a civil rights and employment

attorney, used to be a teacher at Bernotas Middle School. She lives in Lake Zurich.

The 6th District includes Algonquin Township and parts of Lake, Cook, Kane and DuPage counties.

The rest of McHenry County is in the 14th Amanda District, which is repHowland resented by Republican Randy Hultgren who is facing Democratic opponent Jim Walz.

than the National Fire Protection Association’s recommendation of 17.

“We don’t have a crisis right now, and I’m trying to be ahead of the crisis,” Van Dorpe said.

Because the district is not a municipal department, adding a property tax is the only option it has to add revenue.

The only other option the district has is to make more cuts, Van Dorpe said.

Norm Bemis is leading efforts to spread the word about the referendum through Friends of the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District.

As an Algonquin resident and Palatine firefighter, Bemis said he realizes the importance of having timely emergency response intervention.

“Maybe the last time people just didn’t realize it and didn’t know it was out there,” Bemis said. “And everyone’s initial reaction is ‘No more taxes.’”

This time, Bemis is helping to spread the word about the referendum and educating people on why he believes it’s needed.

Information sessions on the referendum will be held at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 21, Oct. 27 and Nov. 2 at the fire department, 1020 W. Algonquin Road, Lake in the Hills. For information, visit http:// www.alfpd.org/.

What makes for a good ghost story? Something that makes our spines tingle, titillates our sense of the macabre, or just plain scares the heck out of us? No one answer truly suffices. The fears and interests in the supernatural stem from our human desire to know and explain the inexplicable. McHenry County has its share of ghost history – from the escapades of Elvira, a beautiful actress who allegedly hung herself from the Woodstock Opera House balcony, to the “cornered” specters at the Stickney House in Bull Valley. George Stickney, a New York native and first white settler in Nunda Township, married the daughter of another prominent pioneer, Sylvia Beckley, in 1839. The couple began work to replace their original log cabin in 1849 with a 10-room house, located at 1904 Cherry Valley Road. Completed in 1856, its rounded corners mirror Sylvia’s interest in spiritualism. The Stickney House Foundation continues work on restoring the house turned current village hall, as evidenced by the restored balcony.

What is your position on Valley Hi Nursing Home’s surplus? Should its levy be abolished?

The surplus didn’t happen overnight, and the surplus itself tells you the levy is no longer justified. If we need the revenues in the future, we can always go to the taxpayers and look for a referendum. Valley Hi is an extremely well-run nursing home, and as long as it remains so, I don’t see a reason for a drastic change.

The Valley Hi surplus must be considered as a piece of the larger question about the future of this county nursing home. Valley Hi has served McHenry County for over 125 years.

Its mission is to care “for those least able to care for themselves.” Voters spoke in 2002 with their approval of a tax levy supporting Valley Hi’s service to our poorest seniors and citizens with disabilities. Over the past six years, Valley Hi has accumulated a substantial surplus covering about three years of operating expenses. And in light of this surplus, in November of 2015, the County Board “abated” Valley Hi’s tax levy. An operating deficit of about $708,880 is now anticipated for Valley Hi in 2016. If the Board extends this “abatement,” Valley Hi will no longer receive levied tax funds, leaving it primarily dependent on revenue from private pay residents, Medicare and Medicaid. Eliminating the Valley Hi tax levy and/or depleting its surplus through deficit spending, necessary fixes and upgrades only begs the real question – do McHenry County residents still value a county nursing home? Any board decision to undo the will of the voters to support Valley Hi should occur only after the public speaks.

State tax law once again puts the county between a rock and a hard place in regards to the surplus. Valley Hi is an enterprise fund and as such cannot be swept or used for other purposes. There have been recent proposals for creative use of the surplus, but viewing those discussions from the outside, I must say that they are as clear as mud to the ordinary citizen and do not seem to provide a workable solution. I am against abolishing the levy.

Although by the 2002 referendum the county can levy up to $6 million for Valley Hi, it cannot levy any more than levied the year before in future years – state law rules here. In effect, abolishing the levy leaves the enterprise with no tax income and would force a new referendum to levy new funds. Why can’t the county work harder than it has already to get state law changed so that the amount of levy can move up or down as the financial situation of its residents warranted within the limits prescribed by a previous referendum? Valley Hi’s future as a county-owned enterprise should be determined by a future referendum, a not County Board-only decision.

I was on the Valley Hi Operating Board as a liaison member for two years. However, the operating board cannot adjust the tax levy, only the County Board can do that. After leaving the operating board, I led the effort to take a temporary reduction last year by eliminating the levy. However, that can only be done in alternate years due to the state’s tax cap legislation. If we do it two years in a row, it becomes permanent. Given that we have a large surplus over and above future capital improvement needs of roughly $20 million due to good management over the past few years, I think we can live off of that for a considerable time and then go back to the voters if necessary for another levy approval, so I am recommending that this year.

What recent County Board decision do you disagree with the most and why?

The County Board asks referendum questions of the voters that they can predict the answers to while not asking the questions they don’t know the answers to. For example, the County Board could have asked, “Should the Valley Hi tax rate be abolished?” They didn’t.

At its Aug. 16 meeting, the County Board voted to place an advisory referendum regarding anti-corruption reform on the November ballot.

During the lengthy board discussion, it was stressed that the purpose of an advisory referendum is for the board to seek public opinion on a question relevant to the board. Advisory referendums are used by the board to seek the voters’ advice on what to do with an issue, such as was done with an advisory referendum on whether the board chair should be elected by county voters and such as what is being done on whether the size of the board should be reduced. The question was voiced whether this anti-corruption advisory referendum is such a situation. Does the board need to ask a voter whether he or she is for or against state anti-corruption measures such as increasing campaign fund transparency and placing limits on campaign money? Despite this very reasonable inquiry, the board continued to debate the six proposed amendments to the resolution and ultimately voted to place the advisory referendum on the ballot. Now the voters can wonder why the County Board seeks to know whether they are for or against limiting corruption on Nov. 8.

I disagree with the “slow-walking” that the board is doing in the hiring of a water specialist. We have a finite supply of water and need to continue and build upon water-related policies and programs that were developed in the Water Resource Action Plan. Water issues are here now, and to not be proactive will only worsen future problems. McHenry County needs to have a sustainable water supply. It is not something that can be put off until the tax issues are less severe.

I was disappointed in the township consolidation vote in which the majority of the board members, I felt, caved in to township employees who had packed the meetings and scared them off of allowing the citizens to directly decide through a binding referendum if it would save money to consolidate some of the townships. A tax disparity issue was raised at the last minute, and although it was legitimate, I felt that that was something that the voters should be allowed to weigh for themselves instead of being deprived of that opportunity. Special interests, however, ruled the day. I do not see this effort coming back absent changes in state law, which have fallen flat this past year.

Cary police investigate armed robbery CARY – Cary police are investigating an armed robbery that occurred early Saturday.

About 12:30 a.m., Cary police responded to the BP Amoco Gas Station, 400 Silver Lake Road, for an armed robbery, according to a news release from the Cary Police Department.

Police said it was determined a Hispanic man, about 18 to 20 years old, entered the store with a silver handgun

and demanded money. The man was wearing a black coat, white scarf and sunglasses, police said.

The suspect was given the money and fled from the store in an unknown direction, police said. A canine unit from the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office responded, but lost the scent, police said.

The case remains under investigation.

Anyone with more information can call Cary police at 847-639-2341.

Michael Emerson Palsgrove, 73, of Crystal Lake, died peacefully Thursday, October 6, at home with his wife and family after a year long battle with cancer.

He was born in Cape Girardeau, Missouri to Elmer Emerson and Nettie Isabelle Brooks Palsgrove. He married the love of his life and soul mate, Eileen, on October 19, 1964 in Jackson, Missouri.

Michael received his undergraduate degree from Southeast Missouri State University and his graduate degree from Northern Illinois University to advance his career in teaching and education. Michael taught, in his words, “a little earth science and a whole lot of growing up,” to freshman at Cary Grove High School for over 30 years. His second career took place at Trinity International University in Deerfield, Illinois, where he taught earth science to returning adults and supervised student teachers.

“This is what the Lord says: ‘Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.’” Jeremiah 6:16 Michael was an incredible man of faith.

He was a member of the Evangelical Free Church of Crystal Lake where he served as an elder, Awana Cubbies Director, community group leader, usher, and Sunday School teacher. He was involved in missionary work that took him to Honduras and to Budapest, Hungary eleven times. Spending time with his family was most important to Michael, but he also enjoyed traveling, building model railroads, and mentoring.

Michael was preceded in death by his parents, Elmer and Isabelle Palsgrove; sister Sammy Vavroch, and daughter Sandra Looper Patterson. Michael is survived by his loving wife, Eileen; sons, David (Julie) Palsgrove and Philip (Sara) Palsgrove, and daughters Sharon (Jerry) Larsen and Alison Palsgrove. He is also survived by his grandchildren, Danielle Elizabeth (Cody Alexander) Albright, Matthew Philip Palsgrove (girlfriend, Christine Ann Parent), Jonathan Lucas Palsgrove (fiancée, Kimberly Carol Boor), Christopher David (Lauren Ann) Palsgrove, who are expecting Michael and Eileen’s first great-grandson in December, Lauren Janie Palsgrove, Hannah Grace Palsgrove, and Braedon Niklas Larsen. Michael also left behind sister, Mary Anne Farrow of Cape Girardeau, Missouri; and sister-in-laws, Charlene Oesch (Don Flotte) and Clara Jo (Dick) Ziervogel, as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

The family would appreciate memorial gifts to the Capital Campaign 2020 at the Evangelical Free Church of Crystal Lake, 575 E.

State to have same-day voter registration Nov. 8

Circuit court rules challenge to law won’t be resolved until after election

By IVAN MORENO

The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Same-day voter registration will be allowed in Illinois in the general election because an appeals court ruled Friday that a challenge to the law won’t be resolved until after Nov. 8.

The decision from the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals not to expedite the case means the legal wrangling between a conservative group and the state won’t affect this election, but the question of whether the law is constitutional remains unresolved.

This week, the appeals court issued a ruling temporarily canceling a federal judge’s decision that the Election Day voter registration law, as drafted by lawmakers, is discriminatory to voters in rural, GOP-leaning areas. If that ruling stood, it would’ve prevented

same-day voter registration on Nov. 8.

Under the law, counties with more than 100,000 residents must allow Election Day registration. Smaller counties that keep electronic records must do the same, but voters in places without electronic records must travel to the county’s main election office or a larger municipality.

The conservative Illinois Policy Institute sued to overturn the law, which began as a pilot project in 2014 and was expanded in 2015.

Jacob Huebert, a Liberty Justice Center attorney representing the group, said the law is a “tremendous advantage” to candidates who draw their support from high-population areas, like Chicago. He called the law “unfair and unequal.”

“We’ve done all we can do for now, but we’re hopeful that when the court has an opportunity to hear the case af-

Environmentalists have fought the 47-mile tollway plan, arguing it would threaten the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie south of Chicago. Some planners also question the need for the road and its financial viability.

Illinois shelved the $1.5 billion project when Gov. Bruce Rauner took office in 2015.

But The (Northwest Indiana) Times reported the Illinois Department of Transportation is cooperating with the revisions while making it clear it won’t pursue the road without “a determination that the project is financially viable.”

A federal judge last year rejected the earlier environmental review, citing flaws including a failure to thoroughly evaluate the impact on the tallgrass prairie.

U of Illinois donations fall by tenth, but still top $220M

URBANA – Donations to the University of Illinois fell 10 percent in the fiscal year that ended June 30 but still totaled more than $220 million for a fourth straight year.

The UI Foundation announced the numbers Friday.

The News-Gazette reported that the university’s fundraising arm recorded $224.7 million in cash gifts, pledge payments, annuities and estate distributions in fiscal 2016 for its three campuses.

That’s down from $251.5 million in fiscal 2015.

The combined endowment also dropped in value, from $2.5 billion in 2015 to $2.43 billion this past year.

Officials said that was due in part to the market impact of Britain’s vote in June to leave the European Union.

GOP telling him to quit, Trump vows to press on

By STEVE PEOPLES and JILL COLVIN The Associated Press

NEW YORK – A defiant Donald Trump insisted Saturday he would “never” abandon his White House bid, rejecting a growing backlash from Republican leaders nationwide who disavowed the GOP’s presidential nominee after he was caught on tape bragging about predatory advances on women.

Trump’s own running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, declared he could neither condone nor defend Trump’s remarks in a 2005 videotape that sparked panic inside Trump Tower and throughout the Republican Party with early voting already underway exactly one month before Election Day. “We pray for his family,” Pence said in a statement after canceling a Wisconsin appearance scheduled with House Speaker Paul Ryan and the Republican National Committee chairman, Reince Priebus, both of whom had condemned Trump’s remarks the day before but stopped short of withdrawing support altogether.

The furor places enormous pressure on Trump to try to tamp down a crisis sure to spill into Sunday night’s presidential debate.

But even as the fallout deepened fractures in a party already torn about Trump, many remained loyal to the political outsider. Wisconsin voter Jean Stanley donned a shirt proclaiming “Wisconsin Women Love Trump” and called Ryan a “traitor” for denouncing the presidential contender’s comments.

“He’s a real human,” Stanley said of the New York businessman, surrounded by Trump supporters at the Wisconsin rally where he was set to appear before the videotape emerged.

Ryan and Priebus did not join a chorus of GOP officeholders from Utah to Alabama to New Hampshire who decided the former reality tele-

Both are in competitive congressional races and said they can’t stand by Trump in light of lewd comments from 2005 released on Friday. vision star’s bombshell was too much to take. More than a dozen Republicans – senators, congressmen and sitting governors – announced Saturday they would not vote for Trump.

Among them was the party’s 2008 nominee, Arizona Sen. John McCain, who had stood by Trump even after the billionaire questioned whether the former POW should be considered a war hero because he got “captured.”

“He was not my choice, but as a past nominee, I thought it important I respect the fact that Donald Trump won a majority of the delegates by the rules our party set,” McCain said in a statement. But given Trump’s “behavior this week,” McCain said, it is “impossible to continue to offer even conditional support for his candidacy.”

Many went farther and called on Trump to quit the race altogether.

“I thought supporting the nominee was the best thing for our country and our party,” Alabama Rep. Martha Roby said in a statement. “Now, it is abundantly clear that the best thing for our country and our party is for Trump to step aside and allow a responsible, respectable Republican to lead the ticket.”

His party in chaos, Trump spent Saturday with a close circle of advisers in his cam-

paign’s midtown Manhattan headquarters. Among them: former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who said calls for Trump to bow out are simply the “wishful thinking of the Clinton campaign and those people who have opposed him for a long time.”

Trump addressed the dire situation on Saturday with a light-hearted tweet: “Certainly has been an interesting 24 hours!”

He later tweeted he would not yield the GOP nomination under any circumstances: “The media and establishment want me out of the race so badly - I WILL NEVER DROP OUT OF THE RACE, WILL NEVER LET MY SUPPORTERS DOWN!” The political firestorm was sparked by a 2005 video obtained and released Friday by The Washington Post and NBC News. In the video, Trump, who was married to his current wife at the time, is heard describing attempts to have sex with a married woman. He also brags about women letting him kiss them and grab their genitals because he is famous.

“When you’re a star they let you do it. You can do anything,” Trump says in the video. He adds seconds later: “Grab them by the p----. You can do anything.” He said of his impulse to kiss beautiful women: “I don’t even wait.”

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton speaks at a Women for Hillary fundraiser Wednesday at the Hyatt Regency in Washington.

Leaked campaign emails on paid speeches show Clinton’s ‘moderate’ side

By LISA LERER

The Associated Press WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. – Hillary Clinton took nearly every precaution to ensure voters would never know what she told investment bankers, lobbyists and corporate executives in dozens of closed-door paid speeches before running for president.

Turns out, the Democratic presidential nominee had good reason to do so.

The private comments strike a tone starkly at odds with the fiery message she’s pushed throughout her campaign, particularly during the hard-fought Democratic primary. Some of her remarks give fresh fuel to liberals’ worst fears about Clinton, namely that she is a political moderate, happy to cut backroom deals with corporate interests and curry favor with Wall Street for campaign dollars.

The WikiLeaks organization on Friday posted what it said were thousands of emails obtained in a hack of the Clinton campaign chairman’s personal email account. Among the documents posted online was an internal review of the speeches conducted by campaign aides to survey the political damage her remarks could cause if they ever became public.

In what aides calculated were the most damaging passages, she reflects on the necessity of “unsavory” political dealing, telling real estate investors that “you need both a public and private position.” To investment bankers from Goldman Sachs and BlackRock, Clinton

admits that she’s “kind of far removed” from the middle-class upbringing that she frequently touts on the campaign trail. She tells Xerox CEO Ursula Burns that both political parties should be “sensible, moderate, pragmatic.”

And in speeches to some of the country’s biggest banks, she highlighted her long ties to Wall Street, bantering with top executives and saying that she views the financial industry as a partner in government regulation.

“Part of the problem with the political situation, too, is that there is such a bias against people who have led successful and/or complicated lives,” she said, according to an excerpt from an October 2013 discussion with Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein.

Clinton appears to question the importance of the divestment of assets that financial executives often undertake to avoid the appearance of conflicts of interest when they enter government service.

“You know, the divestment of assets, the stripping of all kinds of positions, the sale of stocks. It just becomes very onerous and unnecessary,” she said.

Clinton’s campaign has refused to confirm – or deny – the authenticity of the thousands of emails, suggesting they were part of a Russian effort to influence the outcome of the presidential race. “I’m not happy about being hacked by the Russians in their quest to throw the election to Donald Trump,” campaign chairman John Podesta tweeted.

“Don’t have time to figure out which docs are real and which are faked.”

Help Aqua and Local Fire Departments Fight Fires.

October 9-15 is Fire Prevention Week, which provides Aqua Illinois with an opportunity to remind customers how essential our water system and fire hydrants are to our safety. Aqua operates and maintains 1,000 miles of water main and nearly 8,000 fire hydrants throughout Illinois — infrastructure that firefighters depend on to protect our communities.

Aqua works closely with local fire departments to ensure they have the water they need to fight fires, but everyone has a responsibility to make sure fire protection is available when needed. Residents can help by following these tips to keep fire hydrants working and accessible: • Keep fences, stones, bricks, landscaping, etc., away from hydrants at all times • During winter months, shovel snow away from hydrants • Mow and trim grass or weeds around hydrants near your property • Don’t plant flowers or shrubs around fire hydrants • Never paint or alter the color of the fire hydrant in any way • Never obstruct a fire hydrant— it needs to be visible.

JEREMIE, Haiti – As a pale blue coffin came into view, grieving women flung themselves to the floor near a morgue overlooking the ravaged city of Jeremie, where a humanitarian crisis has emerged in the wake of Hurricane Matthew.

Mourners beat their fists and screamed, their distress growing more intense as attendants opened the door of the morgue on Saturday to bring out the body of Roberto Laguerre, who was killed next to his 3-year-old daughter when the storm roared through this city in southwest Haiti as a Category 4 storm earlier in the week.

“Why did you leave us? Take me with you!” shouted relative Rita Honore.

Roberto and his daughter, Roseberlande, are among more than 500 people killed from the immediate effects of the storm in southwest Haiti. Authorities fear diseases such as cholera could cause more deaths in the area while the destruction of crops and livestock could cause many people to go hungry.

The precise death toll from the storm remained uncertain. Guillaume Silvera, a senior official with the Civil Protection Agency in the Grand-Anse Department, which is on the tip of the southern peninsula and includes the city of Jere-

ures,” the agency said in a report.

Death tolls are frequently difficult to tabulate in the immediate aftermath of a natural disaster in any country, though it is particularly difficult in remote and mountainous southwest Haiti.

Government officials estimate that at least 350,000 people need assistance, and concern was growing over an increase in cholera cases following widespread flooding unleashed by Matthew. An ongoing cholera outbreak has already killed roughly 10,000 people and sickened more than 800,000 since 2010, when the infectious disease was introduced into the country’s biggest river from a U.N. base where Nepalese peacekeepers were deployed.

Maria Sofia Sanon, a health worker overseeing the open-air cholera treatment center in a corner of Jeremie’s main hospital, said they were illequipped to deal with patients. The area was strewn with broken tree branches, and a group of young mothers sat outside holding up the arms of their glassyeyed children being rehydrated via IVs. “They’re not supposed to be in the sun, but we have no more beds,” Sanon said.

Nearby, officials with the Red Cross were unloading blankets, soaps, bleach and other items as aid began to reach remote corners of Haiti’s southwest peninsula.

OUR VIEW: McHENRY COUNTY ENDORSEMENTS

County Board chairman: Franks In 2014, voters passed a referendum to change the way the McHenry County Board chairman is elected.

Up until now, every two years after an election, the 24 members of the County Board would meet and vote on a chairman from among their own.

For the first time Nov. 8, county voters will popularly elect their chairman when they go to the polls.

Voters must decide between current County Board member Michael Walkup, a Republican, and longtime state Rep. Jack Franks, a Democrat.

Franks has served McHenry County residents in the Illinois House since 1999. He is a fiscal conservative and outspoken advocate for taxpayers.

Serving under powerful House Speaker Michael Madigan, Franks has been an independent voice in Springfield who has opposed the speaker’s attempts to pass a progressive income tax, a millionaire’s tax and other tax increases.

He also opposed the middle-of-the-night, 67-percent income tax increase that Madigan, Gov. Pat Quinn and a lame-duck General Assembly foisted on taxpayers in 2011.

Franks championed legislation to eliminate retirement benefits for part-time members of county boards and transit agency boards.

If elected, Franks said he will continue to fight for taxpayers.

“The only way to reduce taxes is for government to spend less – that is what I will fight for,” Franks said in response to a Northwest Herald questionnaire. “I will require a ‘zero based budget.’ This means that – instead of using last year’s budget numbers as a starting point, we start from scratch and justify every penny that government agencies claim to need. We will scrutinize every expenditure.”

Franks promises to reduce the county’s levy by 10 percent and use his bully pulpit to persuade other local taxing bodies to reduce their levies.

He also supports reducing the size of the County Board from 24 members to 12 and changing to single-member districts.

Franks has earned the endorsements of most of the county’s Republican mayors and village presidents.

Walkup, of Crystal Lake, has been a County Board member since 2012. He previously served on the Crystal Lake Park District Board.

We endorse Franks.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Veterans’ calls for help unanswered The Department of Veterans Affairs has called it a public health crisis – an estimated 20 veterans commit suicide every day. So it is no trivial matter that a suicide hotline run by the VA is failing to answer the phone.

The former director of the Veterans Crisis Line told the Associated Press an average of 35 to 40 percent of the calls to the hotline in May went unanswered by the crisis-trained health science specialists at the VCL’s location in Canandaigua, New York. The calls rolled over to backup centers run by a contractor and staffed by workers, sometimes volunteers, who lack specialized training.

That’s consistent with the findings of the Government Accountability Office, which ran a covert test of the Veterans Crisis Line during the summer of 2015.

Investigators determined the suicide hotline met the VA’s call response time goals – answering the phone within 30 seconds or

sometimes 60 seconds – only 65 to 75 percent of the time. The rest of the calls were transferred to one of five backup call centers, where some callers were left on hold.

The VA’s policy prohibits Veterans Crisis Line staffers from placing callers on hold without first completing a suicide assessment.

The GAO also found problems with the Veterans Crisis Line’s response to text messages, a capability added to the VCL in 2012. Four of the 14 text messages in the GAO’s covert test went unanswered.

In February, the VA’s Office of Inspector General reported on complaints about the Veterans Crisis Line dating to 2014.

The report documented 20 calls to one backup center went to voicemail. The calls were never returned because the staff didn’t know there was a voicemail system.

The VA has made a few

changes, including modifying the contract with the backup call center provider to prohibit voicemail. The agency said it will hire more staff for the primary call center in New York and open another one in Atlanta.

The fact is, the crisis line has not been able to keep pace with the crisis.

From 2008 to 2015, the number of calls to the Veterans Crisis Line increased by nearly 700 percent. Last year the VCL received more than 500,000 calls.

The House of Representatives unanimously passed the “No Veterans Crisis Line Call Should Go Unanswered” Act. The bill, now in the Senate, requires the VA to ensure that a qualified person responds to calls and texts to the crisis line in a timely manner.

It shouldn’t take a new law to do that. Someone in the administration should pick up the phone.

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

IT’S YOUR WRITE

Vote yes for the Safe Roads Amendment this November

To the Editor: I join many others across the state of Illinois in urging support of an important constitutional amendment that will protect transportation funding. At the General Election on Nov. 8, this amendment to require transportation funding to be used for transportation will be the first choice offered to voters on the ballot. I hope an overwhelming majority will vote yes to add this amendment to the Illinois Constitution.

Approval of this amendment will ensure there is a dedicated funding source for projects that will increase the quality and safety of Illinois’ transporta-

tion infrastructure, reducing accidents and damage to vehicles caused by road conditions or hazards and ensuring our bridges are safe.

Illinoisans pay motor fuel taxes, fees for vehicle registrations and license plates, and other transportation-related taxes and fees with the expectation these monies will be spent to maintain, repair and build roads, highways, mass transit and other transportation systems in their communities. Historically, state government has diverted portions of monies raised from these revenue sources for other non-transportation purposes. When voters go to the polls in November, they will see at the top of the ballot an explanation of the amendment

realism. With tightened admissions requirements weeding out the least-qualified students, remedial courses would be the first to feel the pinch. Beyond that, coursework would become more utilitarian. No more majoring in 13th century Mongolian poetry. Taxpayers should not be forced, nor would colleges themselves want, to backstop losses on loans to students who choose abstruse subject matter, particularly in graduate schools, where debts can pile well up into six figures.

Placing a greater emphasis on career prospects may lead some colleges into deeper collaborations with companies. They could more explicitly tailor their curriculums to meet employers’ needs, in return for those companies committing to work-study opportunities for undergraduates and to hiring goals for graduates.

Under this new system, we also would see big change in the for-profit sector. These schools have most exploited the free-money aspect of federal student loan funding. According to a recent study from the Brookings Institution, 77 percent of their students have federal loans – compared with 62 percent at four-year private colleges, 50 percent at four-year public universities, and 27 percent at two-year community colleges. Yet the for-profit students default more often – about 47 percent fail to repay loans after five years, twice the rate at which students from even non-exclusive public and private schools default.

If they had skin in the game, for-profits would have incentive to reduce their dropout rates, better align tuitions with average pay in the career tracks they target and improve their

job placement efforts. For-profits also might double up their current emphasis on online learning, which carves away the room-and-board cost of traditional college, and focus even more on career training. Properly designed and implemented, these would be positive developments.

One cannot underestimate the stakes in resolving the federal student loan crisis. A stunning $1.26 trillion in debt is outstanding today, double the amount in 2009. Moreover, expected losses are mounting from rising defaults, loan discharges and loan modifications under income-based relief programs.

The trends cannot continue. But Draconian actions such as the abrupt shuttering of 50-year old ITT, which will trigger as much as $490 million in taxpayer losses on loan discharges, are not the answer. Nor is making college free, as Bernie Sanders has proposed, or “debt free” in Hillary Clinton’s craftily worded proposal. There is no such thing as “free” – someone always pays.

That’s why student loans should no longer be free to the colleges that use them to fund their operations. Introduce a cost to them for access to that money, and they will spend it more wisely. They are the ones who should know where funding should be cut and where to reallocate it. But until they have something to lose, they will have no incentive to do so.

When the U.S. Education Department shut down ITT Technical Institute at the beginning of the fall semester, some people saw it as just desserts for the for-profit college. Given ITT’s relatively low graduation rates, alleged use of deceptive job placement figures in its recruiting efforts and high numbers of loan defaults and delinquencies, the government may have seemed justified in refusing to fund more loans to ITT students.

Yet, now, 35,000 students are suddenly without a school and 8,000 faculty and staff are unemployed, and the entire episode shows the government remains fixated on problems in the for-profit sector while virtually ignoring all of U.S. higher education long has been guilty of what, in another business, might be called price gouging.

It will come as no surprise to most Americans that college tuition has been rising at about twice the rate of inflation for a quarter century. This has left student borrowers with increasingly heavy debt burdens, which in turn have led to rising delinquency and default rates. The fundamental problem is a large portion of any college’s operating funds come from federal student loans, on which taxpayers take the loss if students fail to repay.

Universities themselves have no skin in this game.

The solution is to require that colleges absorb some of the loss on delinquencies and defaults by their graduates and drop-outs: say, the first 5 percent of losses. And 1 percent to

2 percent of loan amount should be deposited with the Education Department at origination, as collateral.

Only colleges can control tuition, and the cost of room and board and other student expenses. Only they can assess which students are likely to gain the benefits that college should provide. Only they can design their curriculums to prepare students to be productive members of society and to make a living sufficient to repay their loans. We should hold colleges accountable so they do all these things far better than in recent decades.

What would colleges do once they had skin in the game? For starters, they might trim their bloated administrations, where non-teaching staffs have ballooned by 60 percent between 1993 and 2009.

There also would be new pressure on admissions, forcing most institutions to focus on applicants with greater promise – or at least less likelihood of defaulting. Overall enrollment might slow or decline moderately, after having notched a stunning increase of about 40 percent over the past 20 years.

While almost all Americans see more and more kids going to college as a good thing, increasing numbers of graduates are taking jobs that don’t require a college degree – as many as half of them, according to a study by McKinsey. So, for the less-qualified applicants, college may not be the best choice. While colleges are not responsible for declining quality and availability of jobs in the U.S. economy, they must react to this reality.

We also could expect colleges to view their curriculums with greater

AP EXPLAINS: How the food surplus stuffed U.S. freezers

By DAVID PITT

The Associated Press DES MOINES, Iowa – Warehouses, distribution centers and grocery stores are overflowing with some food staples, such as milk, eggs and frozen fruits and vegetables, the result of increased production and decreased exports.

Take dairy, for example: With the most milk ever produced in the U.S. – about 24 billion gallons – that means there are record amounts of butter and cheese. The glut of food means lower prices for consumers.

Here’s a short explanation of how the surplus came about and where it all goes:

HIGH PRICES, HIGH PRODUCTION

Two years ago, high prices for milk, pork, poultry and eggs encouraged farmers to expand livestock operations. Plus, American consumers were opening their wallets and trade partners were willing to keep buying U.S. products. Add to that the cheap cost of animal feed that encouraged farmers to boost livestock’s weight before taking them to market.

RISING DOLLAR, BIRD FLU TAKE A BITE

But agriculture is a cyclical business: The relative high value of the dollar makes U.S. products more expensive to importers, so they’ve slowed their buying. Last year’s bird flu crisis also caused many trade partners to stop taking eggs and turkey and chicken meat, and while production of eggs has returned, demand isn’t fully restored. Those factors and others have suppressed demand, but the cows keep pumping out milk and veggies continue to grow, resulting in

Warehouses, distribution and grocery stores are overflowing with some food staples, such as milk, eggs and frozen fruits and vegetables. It’s the result of increased production and decreased imports. a surplus of certain types of food.

COOLING DEMAND LEADS TO CHILLY SURPLUS

Step into the freezer. The 1.24 billion pounds of cheese in refrigerated warehouses is the highest for the month of August since U.S. records began in 1921, and includes nearly 770 million pounds of American cheese and 25.7 million pounds of Swiss. Other stockpiles include: • 322 million pounds of butter (up 52 percent from a year ago)

Book Your Holiday Parties NOW!

• 1.52 billion pounds of frozen fruit, including 377 million pounds of strawberries and 313 million pounds of blueberries • 1.31 billion pounds of frozen poultry (chicken and turkey), up 4 percent from a year ago.

ONE BENEFICIARY: FOOD BANKS

Not everything is being stored. The USDA announced in August it was buying 11 million pounds of cheese for $20 million and sending it to food banks and food pantries through a

government nutrition assistance program. Farm organizations also are boosting their efforts to improve U.S. exports and move some of the glut out of the country.

PRICES LIKELY TO STAY LOW

Food prices depend on factors beyond just supply, such as weather and oil prices. Given those unpredictable factors, the USDA expects supermarket prices overall to rise between 1 and 2 percent next year for beef, veal, pork, eggs, poultry and fresh fruit.

Considerations with FMLA intermittent leave

Most employers subject to the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) are experienced in handling a continuous period of FMLA leave.

Employers, however, are not always accustomed to understanding FMLA leave for intermittent periods of time. In some ways, intermittent leave poses different challenges than a continuous period of absence poses.

As an initial foundation, an employee can take intermittent leave based on any of the regular FMLA qualifying conditions, such as bonding with a newborn or adopted child, a serious health condition of the individual employee, or to care for an immediate family member with a serious health condition, etc.

The purpose of intermittent leave is that, logically, a person may need to take certain days off or work limited hours while they or an immediate family member requires periodic medical treatment. A person undergoing cancer treatment or a person rehabilitating from a physical injury would be clear examples of the need for inter-

LAW Brad Stewart mittent, instead of continuous, medical leave.

Employers should be aware of some particular rights that they have regarding intermittent FMLA leave: Medical certification can be requested, generally, every 30 days to ensure that the basis for intermittent leave still exists. Please note that if the certification indicates an initial period of time greater than 30 days, an employer may not request recertification within the initial leave period.

Also, employers need to be consistent with any policy of requesting recertification to avoid a circumstance of an employee feeling targeted for taking leave.

Leave may be designated retroactively if appropriate. If an employer learns that an employee’s absence was a qualified FMLA event after the fact,

Pictured (from left) are Kim Hill, Sheldon Clark, Ben Beallis, Dan Loprieno, David Novalinski, Nick Thompson, Lisa Phillips, Debra Junkins, Dawn Kraneman and Jeremy Reynolds.

the employer may promptly provide the FMLA paperwork to the employee to be applied retroactively. Time is of the essence with any such situation, but the key is that it is a tool to ensure FMLA time is applied where appropriate to minimize the overall impact of FMLA-related absence.

The employer may request that employees who are attending scheduled medical treatments schedule the treatments at certain times to minimize the disruption the leave may have on the employer, if feasible with the medical provider.

For example, if a person has to go to physical therapy two times a week, an employer can request that the employee schedule it at the end of the work day, if available, to minimize what might otherwise be commuting time to return to the office. ‘ Employers may generally reassign the employee to other job duties while the employee is taking intermittent leave, if doing so allows the employer to better staff its operations. An example might be to reassign a supervisor

to administrative functions, temporarily, if the scheduled intermittent absences would otherwise compromise the employer’s need to have a supervisor present at all times. A special caution with reassigning an employee is that the employee should be restored to their former position, or its equivalent, when the leave is finished, and in no circumstance should an employee be placed in a position that would seem like a punishment for having taken FMLA leave.

Of course, there are several additional intricacies of FMLA in general and specifically regarding intermittent leave. Employers are advised to thoroughly review the options available to them and consult with appropriate experts to develop a policy to handle intermittent FMLA leave.

Widow ready to date again hesitates to take first step

Dear Abby: My husband of 26 years passed away unexpectedly at age 46.

This was 2½ years ago. I have not started dating yet; however, I finally feel like I’d like to.

I have an old friend from high school whom I have never dated, but I would like to explore the possibility. He lives in another town, and we occasionally message on Facebook.

I need to pick up some papers from a former doctor of mine in that town, and I would like to see my friend. Should I ask him to meet me for coffee? Is that what “buddies” do?

Or should I ask him to meet me for a beer? Would that let him know I want to sort of have a date? What do I say? – Shy Starter Dear Shy: Approach it this way: Call or message him you plan to be in town to collect some documents,

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips and ask if he’d “like to get together and catch up.” That hardly can be considered aggressive. If he’s interested, he then can ask you if you’d like to meet for coffee or a beer – or even go all out and share a meal together.

Dear Abby: I recently went grocery shopping with my friend “April.”

She decided she wanted some ice cream, so she grabbed a box of ice cream bars. She then proceeded to open the box right there in the aisle and eat one of them while we continued to shop.

When we got to the checkout, she

paid for the ice cream. I didn’t say anything at the time because I didn’t want to start an argument, but I feel that what she did was not OK. What are your thoughts on this? – Unsure

In The West Dear Unsure: As long as your

friend paid for the ice cream, I see nothing wrong with what she did.

What I would find upsetting is if she had eaten something, discarded the wrapper and “forgot” to inform the checker, because that would be theft.

Dear Abby: My husband and I are going on a seven-night cruise. There will be a formal and a semi-formal night on the ship. I really want to go, but my husband says it’s his vacation, too, and he doesn’t want to dress up.

Would it be OK for me to go without him? If not, what can he wear

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

that is not a suit and tie but will be acceptable? Just so you know, he said if he has to go, it will be in a tux T-shirt and his Disney top hat. – Get-

ting Away In Ohio Dear Getting Away: You and your

husband are not joined at the hip.

If he prefers not to attend certain events during the cruise, that should be his privilege. However, it’s your vacation, too, and you should have the option to observe the dress code and enjoy those evenings if you wish.

If a coat and tie are required on the cruise you chose, you both might be happier if you select a more casual ship next time because some are less formal than others.

PREP FOOTBALL: McHENRY 27, DUNDEE-CROWN 16

Playoffs beckon Warriors

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Ideally, McHenry would have liked something clean and crisp, something more aesthetically pleasing to make itself playoff-eligible for the first time in nine seasons.

What the Warriors got was more of a struggle against feisty Dundee-Crown in a flag-riddled contest Saturday at McCracken Field.

McHenry led all the way, most of the time by double digits, but could not really put D-C completely away. Still, the Warriors’ 27-16 Fox Valley Conference victory was cause for celebration for a school and community starving for some postseason football.

“You want to say [playoffs] with a better taste in your mouth,” said Warriors coach Nat Zunkel, whose team was penalized 12 times for 137 yards. “I don’t think anybody feels real good about this win. We’re super-proud for this school, for this community that we’re in a position to do something we haven’t done in almost 10 years.”

Next game Dundee-Crown: hosts Crystal Lake Central, 7 p.m. Friday McHenry: visits Hampshire, 7 p.m. Friday McHenry (5-2, 4-2 FVC) is playoff-eligible for the first time since 2007, which was the last of a playoff run of 20 consecutive years.

Linebacker Colton Folliard, who set up McHenry’s first touchdown when he picked off a pass on D-C’s first series and returned it from the McHenry 40-yard line to the D-C 20, said it’s a moment that has long been on the players’ minds.

“It’s a dream come true,” Folliard said. “We’ve been dreaming about this since we were freshmen. We’ve been working hard for so long. I’m just glad it came to realization.”

McHenry built a 19-0 lead before the Chargers (1-6, 0-6) chipped it down to 19-9 in the third quarter. D-C’s defense, along with the numerous penalties, stunted potential drives for the Warriors.

“We had the mindset to keep on pushing through it,” McHenry guard Kyle Lim said. “We had to control what we can control, which is attitude and effort.

We did that, we pushed through and we won. A win is a win. I’m ready to have some fun at homecoming (tonight).”

Colton Klein threw for 133 yards and three touchdowns, the first to Matthew Mohr and the second two to sophomore Braden Crowley. The Chargers scored on Conor Ryan’s 15-yard pass to Sean Jay in the third quarter, but McHenry scored early in the fourth to make it 27-9.

D-C running back Greg Williams, who suffered a sprained ankle early, stayed in the game and ran 26 times for 100 yards and one touchdown.

“They’re fighters,” Chargers coach Mike Steinhaus said. “We deal with adversity all the time at Dundee-Crown.

The kind of things we deal with at Dundee-Crown a lot of other schools don’t understand. So the kids know how to fight and keep fighting because nothing’s really given to us at our school.”

Ryan completed 17 of 36 passes for 141 yards and one touchdown.

GIRLS TENNIS: FOX VALLEY CONFERENCE TOURNAMENT

Wolves, Jacobs tie for tourney team crown

By JOHN WILKINSON

• Sunday, October 9, 2016

HAMPSHIRE – Prairie Ridge senior Annie Timm tried to hold back the tears as she walked off the court Saturday at Hampshire, but as she hugged friends and family, and talked about her Fox Valley Conference championship – the first of her career, the one she fell just short of for two consecutive years – the tears broke through.

“Oh my gosh, like crazy, because ever since I was a freshman I just wanted to win, like so badly,” Timm said.

“I’ve worked my whole life, I’ve been playing since I was 3 years old, and that’s like my ultimate goal was to be the best in the whole area, and then I finally am, so it’s a big deal to me.”

After finishing runner-up in No. 1 singles the past two years, Timm won the conference’s No. 1 singles title with a 6-3, 6-3 win over Jacobs junior Haley Steinkamp on Saturday at Hampshire High School.

“She’s been fighting for that for years,” Wolves coach Jim Bensen said.

“She played third singles as a freshman, first singles for us the last two years, and that’s been one of her goals.

This year just pulling it off was real big for her.”

Steinkamp, last year’s No. 2 singles champion and the second seed in No. 1 singles this season, hung tough with Timm, the bracket’s top seed. The first set was tied at 2 early on, but later with a narrow 4-3 lead, Timm pulled away to close out the set. She remained in control throughout the second set to secure her title.

“I think I just stayed really consistent. I didn’t hit the best shots, but I think I hit a lot of shots just to put them back in play and let her make the mistakes,” Timm said. “So I just tried to keep everything in and stay consistent overall.”

As soon as Timm and Steinkamp wrapped up the last match of the tournament, everyone began doing mental math, trying to calculate how the team points had shaken out.

When the team scores were announced, it was even closer than expected, with Prairie Ridge and Jacobs tied with 65 points each to share the FVC Tournament championship.

Team points for Prairie Ridge and Jacobs, creating a tie for the tournament title

The proud parent put in the most awkward position was Crystal Lake Central coach Amanda Schuetzle who was cheering for and taking photos of her daughter Hannah, who was part of a conference-title-winning No. 4 doubles team for Crystal Lake South. champion, while Jacobs had four winners.

Crystal Lake South came in third with 61 points, led by a pair of champions: Hannah Rakofsky winning No. 2 singles and the team of Caroline Rausch/Hannah Schutzle winning No. 4 doubles. South’s Rachel Anklam was

runner up at No.3 singles, and Skylar Olsen took third at No. 1 singles as did the Gators’ No. 1 doubles pairing of Julia Kopfman/Claire Atkinson.

Huntley took fourth with one runner-up and four third-place finishers.

Jacobs also received its trophy Saturday for the regular-season FVC title.

The Golden Eagles went undefeated in conference duals for the second consecutive season.

“I was blown away,” Jacobs coach Jon Betts said of his team’s performance Saturday. “I sat up and did the points last night and knew if we won everywhere and had a little help we could be in it and across the board the girls did great. ... I was incredibly proud of how they played.”

The Golden Eagles were led by a win at No. 1 doubles from senior Katie Toomire and junior Kylie Skepnek, who beat Prairie Ridge’s Kaitlyn Cox and Kaitlyn Theil, 6-2, 6-4.

“They’ve really grown as a pair all season,” Betts said.

With the win, the first-year pairing became Jacobs’ first girls conference champions at No. 1 doubles.

“It’s really exciting because I know we lost so many seniors last year and so having a new lineup a lot different

this year, being able to get first is so exciting,” Toomire said. “I’m super excited, especially for them to be able to experience it’s so exciting. ...

“I’m so happy that I was a leader because they’re so special to me, we’re all like family, we’re so close. I was glad I was able to do that.”

Jacobs also had conference champions in Lindsay Cunningham at No. 3 singles, Marie Beyer and Nikole Gilman at No. 2 doubles, and Brianna Japkowski and Ramya Nissankula at No. 3 doubles.

The Golden Eagles have won at least a share of the conference title for three consecutive years.

“It’s better than not sharing it at all,” Betts said. “Both teams are pretty even. We saw that during the season in a match that could have gone either way. Having a share of the title, we’re pretty happy with that. Can’t complain at all.”

Bensen called the tie “somewhat” anticlimactic, but the Wolves were more than happy with how the weekend had gone. In addition to Timm, the Wolves had four second-place finishers and the No. 2 doubles pairing of Macy Biggam and Corina Johnson won their third-place match.

4 GIRLS VOLLEYBALL: HUNTLEY INVITATIONAL

Marian tops Huntley in final

By ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Marian Central senior libero Meghan Schwallie had a scary thought for opposing teams after the Hurricanes won their second straight Huntley Volleyball Invitational on Saturday.

“I think it means we’re just as good as we were last year,” Schwallie said.

“Last year to this year, we’ve become better at learning and growing from our mistakes ... and we’re still getting better.”

It’s hard to imagine the defending Class 3A state champions much better.

With a 25-22, 28-26 sweep of Huntley in the tournament final, the Hurricanes improved to 27-1 on the season.

Dating to last season, Marian Central has won 35 of 36, with its last loss coming against St. Charles East, 25-18, 21-25, 25-22, on Sept. 17. This weekend, they finished 5-0 with wins over DeKalb, Glenbard North, Boylan, Crystal Lake Central and Huntley.

The Hurricanes beat the Raiders in the championship match for the second year in a row. They quickly took team photos for parents before rushing home to get ready for their homecoming dance.

“With the girls being all heady because of homecoming, they were still extremely focused when they needed to be,” Marian coach Laura Watling said. “I’m proud of the girls every time.

They always seem to surprise me every game and how well they can keep it going.”

The Hurricanes beat Crystal Lake Central for the third time this year, 25-21, 25-18 in the semifinals, before handing Huntley its only loss of the tournament in the final. They dropped only one set all weekend – in a 25-27, 2520, 25-10 comeback win over DeKalb in their opener Friday.

Florida Atlantic commit Sydney Nemtuda led Marian’s offense with 50 kills in five matches, Houston Baptist commit Lauren Hanlon added 34 kills, Nevada commit McKayla Wuensch had 113 assists, and Schwallie had 57 digs on defense.

Hanlon led the team with 11 kills and two blocks in the win over Huntley, providing two big blocks at the net, including the match winner, to send the Hurricanes to their 11th straight victory.

Watling also pointed to the play of Rachel Noonan and Brenna Koch as key factors all weekend.

“It’s definitely a good tournament to know where we’re at,” Hanlon said.

Weck was named Homecoming Queen and had homecoming court at Marian’s football game against Carmel on Friday night. in good shape after winning this. Huntley always has so much energy, and they really know how to stay to stay aggressive even when they get down.”

Huntley led by as many as three points in the second set, 20-17, and had one set point spoiled by a kill from Nemtuda, who had three of Marian’s last four points. Southeast Missouri State commit Ally Dion led the Raid-

ers with 12 kills, Taylor Jakubowski had 26 assists, Sarah Zayas had 18 digs, Aleah Amelio had seven kills and Marissa Deem added five blocks in the final.

“I think offensively we were running a nice fast offense, but our serve-receive broke down at crucial times for us,” Raiders coach Karen Naymola said. “We were still doing a good job of making shots and rolls and tips that were scoring, but Marian Central is a team that has many offensive threats as well. When you stop one, you’ve got to be ready for a different angle.”

Crystal Lake Central (21-7) finished 4-1 and placed third, defeating Dakota, 25-20, 25-19, in the platinum bracket third-place match after falling to Marian Central.

“It’s good to be able to bounce back from that loss to Marian where we’re frustrated a bit and come out and beat Dakota,” Tigers coach Lisa Brunstrum said. “This tournament is good for us.

We played a lot of good teams, and a lot of tough competition that really pushed our defense.”

Also in the tournament, Jacobs finished 2-3 and fell to Lake Zurich in the third-place match in the gold bracket, and Johnsburg finished 1-4 and lost to DeKalb in the third-place match in the silver bracket.

ERIC MACKEY Marengo, QB Mackey was 17 of 28 passing for 169 yards and three touchdowns as the Indians lost to Richmond-Burton, 39-28. He was coming off a two-week layoff because of an injury.

ERIC MOONEY Huntley, QB Mooney ran 14 times for 101 yards and one touchdown, and completed 16 of 29 passes for 222 yards and three touchdowns in a 42-21 victory over Crystal Lake Central.

GAVIN SCOTT Marian Central, QB Scott carried 15 times for 104 yards and two fourth-quarter touchdowns as the Hurricanes lost to Carmel, 45-38, in double overtime. Scott was 8 of 21 passing for 111 yards and one touchdown.

LOREN STRICKLAND Jacobs, RB Strickland helped the Golden Eagles defeat Glenbard East, 48-0. He carried nine times for 127 yards and two TDs. He also caught a 63yard pass for another score.

PRESEASON: BULLS 121, PACERS 105

Gibson, Mirotic lead Bulls to first win of preseason

By BRIAN SANDALOW For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – Bobby Portis got his chance. Nikola Mirotic and Taj Gibson took advantage of theirs.

Portis started at power forward Saturday night, playing 18 minutes and scoring three points while grabbing seven rebounds in the Bulls’ 121-105 win over the Indiana Pacers. Gibson

made all nine of his shots and scored 20, and Mirotic had 18 to help the Bulls to their first preseason win. Dwyane Wade, in 27 minutes, scored 22.

Fred Hoiberg said at Saturday’s shootaround it was decided that Gibson, Mirotic and Portis would each get starts in the first three preseason games, with Portis’ opportunity coming Saturday. The Bulls would then figure out after Saturday whether to

continue the de facto starting rotation.

“We just kind of had it pre-determined going into the first three games that we were going to get all three the chance to get out there and start and hopefully to continue to make progress with our team,” Hoiberg said.

“We felt Bobby has done a nice job with the camp.”

Early on, Portis didn’t get a big

chance to show much. He was replaced

by Mirotic with 8:04 left in the first quarter and had been silent. Portis re-entered with 7:15 remaining in the second and ended the half with a pair of steals, a block and two rebounds.

Portis started the second half and was lifted less than four minutes in and replaced again by Mirotic. In the fourth, Portis scored his first point on a free throw with 6:31 to go.

Cubs lead series, 2-0

2

Nothing easy about going up, 2-0 VIEWS Rick Morrissey CHICAGO – The Wrigley Field faithful wanted something easier Saturday night, something stirring but easier, if that wasn’t asking too much. Something to enjoy without having to worry about the pernicious effects of stress on the body.

Friday against the Giants had been a little too hard on the nervous system, even if it had ended in a 1-0 Cubs’ victory. The Javy Baez basket-case home run was nice, but it didn’t show up until the eighth inning and that whole high-wire act with Aroldis Chapman in the ninth was a little much.

So easier is what was called for Saturday and easier indeed seemed to be on the way. Right up until harder decided to get involved in what would end up being a 5-2 victory. The Cubs are up 2-0 in their best-of-five National League Division Series, but it doesn’t feel – what’s the technical term? – completely 2-0-ish. Maybe that has something to do with Madison Bumgarner hovering and Johnny Cueto somewhere in the distance.

The Cubs jumped to a 4-0 lead Saturday, then watched the Giants cut the deficit to two runs and then watched Kyle Hendricks, the pitcher with the lowest earned-run average in baseball, get knocked out of the game in the fourth inning by a line drive to his right forearm. X-rays were negative. So were moods among some of the 42,392 fans at that point.

So easier? Easy there, tiger.

This game wasn’t going to be good for the ticker, if you were a Cubs fan.

It certainly didn’t look as if it would be good for the team. And then, for no other reason than these are the Cubs and they seem to make the best of bad situations, Travis Wood, Hendricks’ pitching replacement, hit a solo home run in the fourth. Of course he did.

The only other reliever to hit a postseason home run in Major League Baseball history was Rosy Ryan of the New York Giants in Game 3 of the 1924 World Series. But, then, you knew that.

The Cubs move on to San Francisco with that 2-0 lead in their pocket. Notice that there is no adjective before “2-0 lead.” Not “commanding” or “impressive.” Not even “relaxed.” Especially not that. They’ll face postseason

luminary Bumgarner on Monday night.

The Cubs might be in the driver’s seat in this series, but Bumgarner has one squeezed hand on the steering wheel.

There will be challenges for this team, and if you didn’t think there would be, you really need to get out of that fantasy world of yours and take a stroll.

Take a stroll through Saturday at Wrigley. Odd things ruled the night.

In the fifth, Bumgarner pinch-hit for reliever George Kontos, who had taken over for former Cub Jeff Samardzija, who had only lasted two innings.

Bumgarner hit a grounder to third baseman Kris Bryant, who fumbled the ball, then threw it well away from first baseman Anthony Rizzo. Two errors on one play. Of course.

Baez would have had a double in the sixth inning if he hadn’t paused to watch the ball fly to left field, just as he had done the night before on the homer that barely made it out of the playing field. He was thrown out at second. Kid, you might want to stop that stuff. Giants reliever Hunter Strickland threw hard and inside to Baez in the eighth, just in case Baez didn’t get the message.

So, no, the Cubs aren’t doing easy these days, for any number of reasons, the Giants’ talent and experience being two of them. The playoffs demand a lot from a team. And this isn’t going to be a coronation, no matter how badly Cubs

fans want it to be.

Manager Joe Maddon, who loves a little madness, was in his element Saturday, bringing pitchers in and out of the game as if he were a doctor seeing patients. He ended up using six, including Chapman in the ninth. You get the distinct impression Maddon doesn’t like easier. You get the impression he would rotate baggers at the grocery store if given the opportunity.

After the game, he said he wanted the Cubs to play the same way they’ve been playing all season. No one can say that the Cubs in two playoff games have looked like the Cubs of 103 regular-season victories. It’s an extremely small sample size, but it does bring home the point that the difference between success and failure in the playoffs is small.

“We’ve got to win three now,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said.

“We were hoping for a split. That didn’t happen. But we’ve done it before.”

They have. In 2012, they were down 0-2 to the Reds, then won three in a row.

But these Cubs aren’t those Reds.

“It’s baseball,” Hendricks said.

“Anything can happen. You can’t let up one bit.”

Jake Arrieta will face Bumgarner in Game 3, and it figures to be quite the matchup. Mostly, it figures to be quite hard for the Cubs. Make they’ll do easy this time.

Cubs looking more like team of destiny

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

CHICAGO – With all due respect to Madison Bumgarner, who’s going to stop these guys?

In Game 2 of the National League Division Series against the ring-jangled Giants, the Cubs had their ERA-champion pitcher get knocked out of the game in the fourth inning by a line drive, their MVP candidate third baseman make two errors on the same batted ball and their Game 1 hero get thrown out at second because he pimped a home run that didn’t actually get over the fence.

And they won.

Saturday’s 5-2 victory over ex-Cub Jeff Samardzija and the Giants opened a commanding 2-0 series lead in the bestof-five set that heads next to San Francisco.

What could possibly go wrong?

And if Game 2 is any indication, would it matter anyway?

Seriously, every time the Cubs have ever taken a 2-0 lead in a postseason series – wait a minute. Never mind.

Turns out the last time it happened, in 1984, they headed to the West Coast one win away from the World Series and watched the opportunity roll through their legs to elimination.

So maybe they’re right to keep their minds on the moment and their eyes on the prize as they travel west for a Game 3 date with all-time postseason ace Bumgarner and last year’s Cy Young winner, Jake Arrieta, pitching for them.

Still, whatever history might say about the Cubs it was hard to look at the

fourth inning Saturday and not wonder about things like destiny. Or at least depth and ability.

With the Cubs leading 4-2 and two outs in the top of the fourth, former Cub Angel Pagan drilled a line drive back to the mound that Kyle Hendricks could not escape – the ball headed for his midsection and hitting him on his pitching forearm.

Hendricks, who led the majors with a 2.13 ERA, threw a few practice pitches under the supervision of manager Joe Maddon and trainer PJ Mainville. Despite appearing to be OK, Maddon elected to replace him with Travis Wood.

X-rays were negative, and the club said Hendricks has a bruised forearm – which doesn’t appear to affect what would be his next start no earlier than a week away in a possible National League Championship Series.

Meanwhile, Wood quickly got the final out of the inning and pitched a scoreless fifth.

In between, Wood homered in the bottom of the fourth to extend the lead to 5-2 – only the second postseason home run by a relief pitcher in history. The last time it happened was in 1924, when the New York Giants’ Rosy Ryan did it against the Washington Senators.

He became the third Cubs pitcher to homer in a postseason game, joining Kerry Wood in 2003 and Rick Sutcliffe in 1984.

Wood, in fact, recorded almost as many outs in his brief relief stint as Giants starter Jeff Samardzija – the twotime Cubs’ Opening Day starter – did Saturday night.

10 CUBS NOTES

AP photo

Cubs players celebrate after Game 2 of baseball’s National League Division Series against the San Francisco Giants Saturday at Wrigley Field. The Cubs won 5-2.

The Cubs may not have envisioned Willson Contreras behind the plate for the start of a playoff when they opened spring training last February.

But Contreras saw this coming from the time he was playing in the Arizona Fall League last year watching the Cubs on TV in the playoffs.

“As I’m watching the game, I put myself behind the plate,” said the rookie catcher, who made his postseason debut as the Game 2 catcher for pitcher Kyle Hendricks Saturday night against the Giants.

“I don’t have nerves at all,” he said before the game. “I don’t need to put pressure on myself.”

Contreras committed catcher’s interference in the top of the second Saturday, creating a first-and-second, one-out jam. He also lined a single the opposite way to right during the Cubs’ three-run rally in the bottom of the inning.

Manager Joe Maddon said he started Contreras because of how well he and Hendricks had worked together this season, “and I like having his athleticism out there, too.”

Maddon said he’s still mulling whether to start Contreras against left-hander Madison Bumgarner in Game 3 on Monday with Jake Arrieta pitching for the Cubs.

Dodgers-Nats rained out in Game 2; will play Sunday The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Long after the concourses emptied, the sky cleared up as the tarp still covered the field.

Game 2 of the NL Division Series between the Washington Nationals and Los Angeles Dodgers still had to wait.

Major League Baseball postponed the Dodgers-Nationals game until Sunday at 1:08 p.m. because it expected the rain that fell throughout the morning and afternoon to continue well into the night.

The teams were scheduled for a 4:08 p.m. first pitch Saturday. But rain that intensified as Hurricane Matthew moved up the coast and a forecast of “100 percent certainty” for precipitation until at least 8 p.m. forced the decision, Commissioner Rob Manfred said.

“We hate to cancel,” said Manfred, who arrived Saturday afternoon after a flight from New York. “We hate to make travel worse on the players than it was originally intended to be. But

it just doesn’t look like we’re going to have a situation that would be safe for the players to play.”

Rain stopped falling at Nationals Park around 4 p.m., about an hour after the decision was made to postpone the game. Rain was scheduled to resume in the early evening.

LA leads the best-of-five series 1-0 after a 4-3 victory Friday night.

Manfred said he expected the weather to be better Sunday at Nationals Park and hopes to be “in a sunny period.” It’s supposed to be 61 degrees and windy around game time.

Left-hander Rich Hill (12-5, 2.12 ERA) will start for the Dodgers against right-hander Tanner Roark (16-10, 2.83). Manfred said the rest of the series will proceed as scheduled with Game 3 Monday afternoon at Dodger Stadium, as the rain wiped out the travel day to the West Coast.

Nationals second baseman Daniel Murphy said players came in prepared to play but was glad the decision was made quickly.

WOOD WORK

Travis Wood, who took over for injured starter Kyle Hendricks in the top of the fourth inning, hit a home run in the bottom of the fourth.

He’s the third Cubs pitcher to hit a postseason homer, first since Kerry Wood (no relation) in 2003. Rick Sutcliffe hit one in 1984.

He’s the second relief pitcher to do it in postseason history (Rosy Ryan in 1924).

Hendricks was hit on the forearm by Angel Pagan’s line drive, threw a few practice pitches and seemed OK but was taken out of the game.

game in 2008 when Rookie of the Year Geo Soto was their starter.

But even with Miguel Montero, David Ross and Kyle Schwarber locked into the catching corps on the Cubs’ 25-man roster, Contreras insists he envisioned this moment back in spring training.

“Because as a player you have to put yourself first,” said Contreras, who predicted then he would make the club and not return to the minors. “I just started doing my job, doing my best, and now I’m able to start a playoff game.

That means a lot to me.

“I know the kind of team we had in spring training. I thought about the playoffs. Now I’m here, and I’m going to try to enjoy every single day, every single game, and I will do my best to help my team.”

BEARS AT COLTS, NOON SUNDAY, FOX, AM-780, 105.9-FM

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush

What to watch for: Bears at Indianapolis Colts HOW TO WATCH/LISTEN Noon kickoff on Fox (Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, Erin Andrews) and WBBM Radio AM-780 and FM-105.9 (Jeff Joniak, Tom Thayer, Zach Zaidman) KEY MATCHUP TO WATCH Bears WR Alshon Jeffery vs. Colts CB Vontae Davis: This one-on-one battle could be worth the price of admission. Davis, a former University of Illinois corner, has had a career resurgence in Indianapolis. He had 16 passes defensed and four interceptions in each of the last two seasons, earning Pro Bowl nods. The Colts missed him in their first two games of the season, both losses,

as he began the year with an ankle injury.

A 5-foot-11, 207-pounder, Davis is strong and physical, with the ball-hawking skills to compete with Jeffery for any jump balls. The key with this matchup is whether Davis can handle Jeffery 1-on-1, something few corners can do. Jeffery has 17 catches this season for 317 yards, averaging 18.6 yards a reception, but most of those big plays have come before halftime. Defenses have been rolling a safety over to him to double-team the Bears’ top receiver, limiting his production in the second half. That has allowed Bears quarterbacks to find Eddie Royal or Kevin White in favorable coverages. The Bears are without White and possibly Royal (calf, game-time decision), so

they’ll be relying on Jeffery to make big plays he hasn’t been put in too many situations in against Davis and attract enough attention to coverage (one pass defensed). He may find open things up for his teammates. himself in position to make a play on a deep ball a few times on Sunday.

• Sunday, October 9, 2016

The Bears might have a problem Sunday in Indianapolis.

Many of us picked the Bears on Sunday over Detroit because they finally were getting a team they were evenly matched with, they were in as close as you can get to a must-win situation, and they were at home.

This week, the Colts find themselves in the same situation the Bears were in last week. Indianapolis is desperate for a win, and although they have some obvious weaknesses, the Bears might not have enough strengths to exploit them.

Colts quarterback Andrew Luck still is the best young quarterback in the game. He is one of the NFL’s great competitors, and he often refuses to get beat even when everything around him is breaking down.

That is how you explain the fact that although Indy is only 17th in the league in total offense, 24th running the ball and 13th throwing it, they are seventh in points scored.

Perhaps Luck’s greatest accomplishment is that the Colts are seventh in scoring in spite of the fact they are last in QB sack percentage, and when Luck isn’t running for his life, he has been sacked a league-high 15 times.

T.Y. Hilton is the Colts’ top receiving threat with 25 catches, and he and Phillip Dorsett will stress the Bears’ young secondary.

The Colts let tight end Coby Fleener escape to New Orleans to keep Dwayne Allen, but Allen is off to a slow start this year with only 11 catches for 133 yards and one touchdown.

Frank Gore still can run the ball at 33; the Colts just don’t try it that often,

as questionable with a calf injury.

The Bears must find a rush somewhere if they are going to limit Luck.

Defensively, the Colts are awful – 24th in total defense and 30th in points allowed.

Indianapolis doesn’t do anything particularly well on defense – why it allowed free-agent LB Jerrell Freeman to leave for Bears is the eighth wonder of the world – and they only boast one playmaker offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains has to scheme for.

Cornerback Vontae Davis is that guy, and he almost certainly will shadow Bears receiver Alshon Jeffery all day.

With WR Kevin White now injured and Eddie Royal likely out or at least limited after missing practice all week, Loggains has to beat the Colts with Cameron Meredith, Josh Bellamy and Jeffery catching the ball.

At 33, Robert Mathis is a once great pass rusher who isn’t any more, and D’Qwell Jackson has lost a step and a half at linebacker.

Designated pass rusher Eric Walden does have four sacks, but with only one guy to scheme for, the Bears should be able to protect QB Brian Hoyer.

AP file photo Common sense suggests now that The Bears will face the Colts and quarterback Andrew Luck on Sunday in Indianapolis. the Bears have discovered RB Jordan Luck has been sacked a league-high 15 times this season.

Illini QB Lunt injured in defeat

By DAVID MERCER

injury is a concern.

The Associated Press

CHAMPAIGN – Purdue came to Illinois Saturday reeling from a 43-point loss at Maryland and living with growing pressure on its coach, Darrel Hazell, to win.

The Boilermakers got just what they needed from a freshman kicker who had missed more field goals this season than he had made and a freshman running back starting his first game, knocking off the Illini in overtime, 34-31.

The running back, Brian Lankford-Johnson, carried the ball 18 times for 127 yards and a touchdown.

The kicker, J.D. Dellinger, had missed three of his five field goals on the season. But he hit from 28 yards on the game’s final play, and set off a wild celebration.

The Boilermakers (3-2, 2-1 Big Ten) rushed for the Illinois sideline, mistakenly thinking they would find the Cannon trophy the teams play for there, before finally mobbing their band in the south end zone.

Dellinger said the aftermath of the win was a blur.

“I never thought about celebrations because I’ve never been put in this position before so I’ll have to watch it again – I don’t remember it honestly,” he said.

Hazell, who earlier in the week acknowledged the pressure, said the win was a big lift.

“People don’t understand how hard it is to win football games, all the piec-

THE TAKEAWAY Purdue: The Boilermakers are out

of the Big Ten West cellar and suddenly have a winning record and are halfway to bowl eligibility. They also ran the ball for 231 yards (an average of 5.6 a carry) and three touchdowns on a team whose defense was considered its strength. But their run defense was still a problem. Illinois ran for 315 yards.

Illinois: It isn’t clear yet just how long Lunt will be out, but the Illini got a look at what their offense is likely to be if he misses any time. Crouch is not a consistent deep-ball threat. But he ran for more yards Saturday than Lunt has at Illinois. Illinois is still in search of its first Big Ten win, and its first win since the opener against Murray State.

“Right now, we’re not a good footAP photo ball team,” Smith said. “That’s where Illinois quarterback Chayce Crouch is upended by Purdue safety Navon Mosley during the we are. We’re facing reality right now.”

first half Saturday in Champaign.

es have to fit together and you need a break every once in a while,” he said.

Kicker Chase McLaughlin had a chance to win the game for Illinois (1-4, 0-2) on the final play of regulation, but his 41-yard attempt clanged squarely off the right upright. McLaughlin had already made three field goals, including one from 47 yards, and had been a perfect 8 for 8 on the year.

“Every loss hurts, but some hurt a little bit more than others,” Illinois coach Lovie Smith said. “This is the one that hurts a little bit more”

“We just kept shooting ourselves in the foot,” a red-eyed Illinois center Joe Spencer added, noting that Illinois had 12 penalties for 125 yards.

Illinois quarterback Chayce Crouch, a sophomore who replaced Wes Lunt after Lunt was injured in the second quarter, carried the ball 17 times for 137 yards and two touchdowns.

Lunt was knocked out of the game on a big hit by linebacker Danny Ezechukwu, who was flagged for roughing the passer. Smith said immediately after the game that he only knows Lunt’s

INJURY REPORT

While Lunt’s status is not known, starting cornerback Darius Mosely left the game after a hard hit in the third quarter and backup cornerback Cameron Watkins was also knocked out with an unspecified injury. For Purdue, receiver Dominique Young left the game in the fourth quarter with an injury to his right leg. He was carted off the field with his leg in an inflatable cast. Jones did not make the trip to Champaign as he tries to recover from a shoulder injury that has nagged him all season.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: WESTERN MICHIGAN 45, NORTHERN ILLINOIS 30

Huskies can’t keep up with Broncos

By JESSE SEVERSON

jseverson@shawmedia.com KALAMAZOO, Mich. – The Northern Illinois defense didn’t have an answer for Jarvion Franklin and Corey Davis.

The Western Michigan playmakers had big nights and the Broncos broke a seven-game losing streak to the Huskies with a 45-30 Mid-American Conference win Saturday night at Waldo Stadium in Kalamazoo.

Franklin, who took over running duties after an ankle injury sidelined starter Jamauri Bogan, finished with 169 yards on 31 carries and had a touchdown to go with three catches and 80 yards receiving. Davis, who is the

Mid-American Conference’s all-time leader in career receiving yards, had six catches for 122 yards and two touchdowns. “[The Huskies’ defense] wasn’t good enough,” NIU coach Rod Carey said.

“We got some stops in the second half and Corey had a nice game, he’s a great player, and you give them credit.”

For Western Michigan coach PJ Fleck, it’s his first win against his alma mater in four attempts and the Broncos first victory over the Huskies since 2008.

The Broncos (6-0 overall, 2-0 MAC West) had 573 yards of total offense, while the Huskies finished with 484.

Making his second career start at quarterback, NIU senior Anthony Maddie had 111 rushing yards and a touchdown

and went 14 for 30 passing with 224 yards and a touchdown but threw two interceptions in the fourth quarter.

Huskies receiver Kenny Golladay had five catches for 99 yards, and Jordan Huff had nine carries for 79 yards for the Huskies, who dropped to 1-5 overall and 1-1 in the MAC West. The Huskies got three field goals by kicker Christian Hagan after getting into the red zone on each drive. “[The offense] was fine, but it wasn’t good enough,” Carey said. “You get down into the red zone and settle for three field goals, that’s the difference in the game. If those are touchdowns, I think that game is probably different but it wasn’t and give them credit, they’re a good football team.”

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: NORTH CAROLINA STATE 10, NOTRE DAME 3

By JOEDY McCREARY

four of them. In a sequence that perfectly captured the day, Notre Dame coughed the ball up with about 10 minutes left in the second quarter on a bad snap — only to get it right back when N.C. State fumbled on its next snap.

“Both teams turned the ball over in very difficult conditions,” Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said. “Both teams had a hard time moving the football.

Both field-goal kickers managed to eke one over the uprights in sloppy conditions. We give up a flippin’ blocked punt for a touchdown, and that’s the difference in this one.”

The Associated Press

THE TAKEAWAY Notre Dame: The sloppy conditions

AP photo

North Carolina State defensive back Dravious Wright tackles Notre Dame receiver C.J. Sanders in the first half Saturday in Raleigh, N.C. for the go-ahead touchdown with 12:43 remaining.

That TD came after McKeever fought through a block from Nic Weishar up the middle to deflect Tyler Newsome’s punt. All Wright had to do was scoop up the ball – not an easy task on a day like this – and head for the end zone.

“I didn’t even have to see the block,” Wright said. “I heard it.”

Notre Dame put together a late drive into the N.C. State red zone, but a shotgun snap on fourth-and-8 squibbed past DeShone Kizer with 1:52 left and the Wolfpack ran out the clock.

The teams combined for five turnovers, had a total of 10 fumbles and lost

helped the Fighting Irish’s oft-criticized defense post its best numbers of the season. After allowing at least 489 total yards to every Power Five opponent they’ve faced, they gave up just 198 yards in this one.

But that went both ways. The potent Fighting Irish offense managed just 113 total yards on 64 offensive plays, and had just 41 yards through three quarters. Kizer was sacked five times and was just 9 of 26 for 54 yards — the worst game of his career, aside from a 0-for-1 day against Texas last year.

“We don’t have any excuses,” Kelly said. “We were atrocious offensively.”

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: BIG TEN ROUNDUP

Iowa holds off Minnesota, holds onto Floyd of Rosedale The ASSOCIATED PRESS

MINNEAPOLIS – Iowa was reeling from a pair of losses to teams the Hawkeyes were favored to beat, pushing that 12-0 regular season from 2015 to the back of the memory bank.

They got back on track with a gritty victory over rival Minnesota.

Akrum Wadley took off for a 54yard touchdown run with 5:28 left and the Hawkeyes hung on to beat the Gophers, 14-7, Saturday to hoist the Floyd of Rosedale trophy for the second straight year.

“We just kept grinding,” said Wadley, who had 14 carries for 107 yards for Iowa (4-2, 2-1 Big Ten), who matched the program record with an eighth straight road win despite two interceptions thrown by C.J. Beathard.

Iowa has won four of the last five meetings and 12 of 16. Minnesota still leads the overall series 62-46-2.

“I would like to say we wanted it more,” said Beathard, whose streak with a touchdown pass in nine straight games

was stopped.

Floyd, the 98-pound bronze pig first awarded in 1935 as a bet between the governors of the two states, must’ve felt unwanted for most of the game.

Mitch Leidner completed only 13 of 33 passes for 166 yards and was also picked off twice for the Gophers (3-2, 0-2), who were flagged eight times for 58 yards and lead the conference in penalties.

No. 2 Ohio St. 38, Indiana 17: At Columbus, Ohio, J.T. Barrett ran for 137 yards and a touchdown and passed for another score, and Ohio State (5-0, 2-0) beat Indiana(3-2, 1-1).

Ohio State was forced to rely mostly on its ground game, which accounted for 290 yards, and some tough play by its defense – including a critical fourth-quarter stop on its own 4 yard line following a Barrett inception – to fend off the Hoosiers, who had upset Michigan State last weekend.

Ohio State’s defense held when it had to, also forcing Indiana to turn the ball over on downs on the Hoosiers’ own 33 with 5:22 left and the Buckeyes leading

31-17. Five plays later, Barrett hit Dontre Wilson with a 37-yard touchdown pass to put the game out of reach.

Safety Malik Hooker sealed the win by picking off Richard Lagow on Indiana’s next series.

Penn St. 38, Maryland 14: At State College, Pennsylvania, Penn State coach James Franklin said this week that the Nittany Lions needed to show opponents the ability to win games solely by the pass if the ground game goes awry; with 372 yards rushing against Maryland, it’s a theory they didn’t need to prove.

Saquan Barkley ran for 202 yards, quarterback Trace McSorley added 81 more and threw a pair of touchdown passes to lead Penn State (4-2, 2-1) over Maryland (4-1, 1-1) in front of a homecoming crowd of 100,778.

BYU 31, Michigan St. 14: At East Lansing, Michigan, Jamaal Williams ran for 163 yards and two touchdowns, and Brigham Young beat Michigan State, sending the Spartans to their third straight loss.

Taysom Hill ran for a touchdown and

threw for another in the second half, and the Cougars (3-3) largely shut down the Spartans (2-3) after Michigan State scored a touchdown on its first drive.

BYU trailed 7-3 at halftime but scored touchdowns on all four of its second-half possessions – not including its final drive, which consisted only of kneeldowns.

No. 4 Michigan 78, Rutgers 0: At Piscataway, New Jersey, Jabrill Peppers ran for a career-high two touchdowns and set up another score with a 63-yard scamper in his return to his native New Jersey and Michigan (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten) routed Rutgers (2-4, 0-3) in a game in which the Scarlet Knights were limited to 22 yards total yards and two first downs.

Peppers had scoring runs of 7 and 4 yards after taking direct snaps, and his career-long run midway through the first quarter paved the way to a 4-yard touchdown run by Ty Isaac for the first score of the game.

Peppers also had a 44-yard punt return for a first-quarter touchdown nullified by an illegal block.

• Sunday, October 9, 2016

RALEIGH, N.C. – One by one, the North Carolina State players took off running after the game ended, heading straight for the puddle at the 25-yard line.

After a sloppy day of belly-flops and splashdowns, it was time to turn the field at Carter-Finley Stadium into a slip-and-slide.

The Wolfpack beat Notre Dame, 103, Saturday in a game played in hurricane conditions and after the start of the second half was delayed because of lightning.

“This is a game to remember,” N.C. State tight end Pharoah McKeever said. “I’ll probably remember it until the day I die. Raining, playing in a hurricane, not knowing if we were going to play or not. Lightning delay, in the locker room for 30 more minutes. ...

And then after the game, doing field slides in the mud. This was just something to remember.”

A waterlogged field saturated by Hurricane Matthew’s heavy rains and wind-whipped by its gusts rendered both offenses ineffective, so N.C. State (4-1) beat the Fighting Irish (2-4) with special teams and defense – with Dexter Wright returning a blocked punt

CONCORD, N.C. – Hurricane Matthew washed out Saturday night’s Sprint Cup race at Charlotte Motor Speedway and led NASCAR to schedule a doubleheader Sunday.

Rain and wind from Matthew have doused the area the past two days, so NASCAR called off Saturday night’s Cup race. The Xfinity Series race scheduled for Friday had already been moved to Sunday.

The Cup race will start at noon ET on Sunday and air on both NBC and NBC Sports Network. The Xfinity Series race will begin at approximately 4:30 p.m. ET on Sunday and air on NBCSN. Kevin Harvick won the pole Thursday night for Sunday’s Cup race, while the lineup for the Xfinity race was set per the rulebook. Kyle Larson will start on that pole.

Navy stuns No. 6 Houston, puts dent in Cougars’ playoff hopes

ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Will Worth and Navy stunned No. 6 Houston, romping to a 46-40 victory Saturday that seriously damaged the Cougars’ playoff hopes.

Worth ran for 115 yards and threw two scoring passes for the Midshipmen (4-1, 3-0 American Athletic). Navy hadn’t beaten a Top 10 team since 1984, when it topped then-No. 2 South Carolina in Annapolis.

Streams of the Navy Brigade stormed the field to surround the players, most of them jumping for joy.

Houston (5-1, 2-1) had won 19 of its last 20 games, including a 52-31 blowout of Navy last year. But the Cougars couldn’t get into the end zone often enough despite compiling a whopping 484 yards in offense.

NHL PRESEASON: BLUES 2, BLACKHAWKS 1

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com

Joel Quenneville Blackhawks coach

to expect Hartman to be Shaw right away, but the 22-year-old West Dundee native has embraced the label, and the opportunity created by Shaw’s departure.

“That style is how I’ve played my whole life,” Hartman said. “He came here and obviously did plenty of good things. He had a really good stint here.

Now that he’s gone, there’s a space to fill. We’re different players, and we’ve done different things in our careers.

But there are definitely similarities.”

From a pedigree standpoint, they

couldn’t be more dissimilar. Shaw was famously passed over in two straight drafts before the Hawks took him in the fifth round in 2011. He wound up playing 37 NHL games that very season and went on to be a pivotal player in two Stanley Cup runs. Hartman, meanwhile, was a first-round pick in 2013 and has been biding his time for three full seasons – one in the OHL, and two in Rockford – with just eight NHL games to his credit.

But they both play bigger than their size (Hartman is listed at 6-0, 191 pounds). They both have a tendency to get under opponents’ skin. And they’ve both been productive players at every level. In his two junior seasons and two pro seasons, Hartman has averaged a very Shaw-like 19 goals and 115 penalty minutes. He entered Saturday’s preseason finale in St. Louis with a goal and a team-high 17 penalty minutes. The Hawks lost, 2-1.

Shaw’s productivity was often lost amid his penchant for sparking skirmishes, but he was a 20-goal scorer in 2013-14, and had 29 goals over the last two seasons. He spent much of last season as Jonathan Toews’ left wing.

That’s what separated him from so

many other so-called agitators. That’s what Hartman is hoping to duplicate.

“We don’t expect him to do that,” Quenneville cautioned. “The role is a little bit different. I think he’s looking to get established in his own right. He’s looking to be a regular, and get better [moving forward]. You’ve got to be yourself, you’ve got to play your own game, and play to your strengths.”

Hartman’s not shying away from the challenge, though. And he’s likely going to be slotted – at least, to start – in a hybrid checking/scoring role on an intriguing line with Marcus Kruger and Marian Hossa.

For the local kid, it’s finally starting to feel normal to be in a Blackhawks dressing room, and to wear a Blackhawks sweater. Now it’s just a matter of proving he’s an everyday NHL player, and perhaps a worthy successor to one of the most versatile and popular Hawks in recent memory.

“It definitely feels a lot more normal now,” Hartman said. “It feels like this is the year you want to be here full time. That opportunity is there, and opportunities like this don’t come every year. I’ve just got to take advantage of it.”

ST. LOUIS – It’s difficult to overstate just how much Joel Quenneville adored Andrew Shaw, because it’s difficult to overstate just how much Shaw did for the Blackhawks. Oh, there was the occasional – OK, frequent – mind-numbing penalty late in a close game that drove Quenneville batty, but the coach didn’t deem Shaw “irreplaceable” shortly before he was traded to Montreal out of hyperbole.

Shaw did just about everything for the Hawks. He agitated. He hit. He fought. He played net-front on power plays. He scored goals. He scored big goals. He played left wing, center and right wing. He played first line, second line, third line, and fourth line.

Whatever Quenneville needed, Shaw was his guy.

“He was resilient – the tenacity, the competitiveness, the annoyance that he brought,” Quenneville said. “He [had] the perfect recipe, and did a tremendous job. You’re not going to find another Shawzie.”

Well, Ryan Hartman is going to try.

It’s entirely unfair and unrealistic

“[Shaw] was resilient – the tenacity, the competitiveness, the annoyance that he brought.

Entourage openings available I’m thinking about getting an entourage.

Or maybe it’s a retinue I’d like to have. I’m not sure what the difference is.

And see, that’s the problem. If I had one, I’d be able to yell out from my recliner, “Jim, are you part of my entourage, or are you one of my retinue?”

“Well, sir,” he would say, “I think I’m retinue when we’re at home. Whenever we go on the road, I become entourage.”

“Are you sure?” I would ask.

“Well, I can ask your retinue semanticist. Or maybe your entourage etymologist.”

“Shouldn’t that be ‘entomologist’?”

“I’m not sure,” Jim would say. “I’ll check with your thesaurist, sir.”

“Oh, you don’t have to call me ‘sir’, Jim.” “Well, if we’re on a first-name basis, then I would be more like your posse, sir.”

“Good point, Jim. That’s why I have you in my entourage. Or retinue. Whatever.”

“I’ll check, sir.”

See, that would be nice. As it is, I have to check all those things on my own, and I just don’t have the energy for it. I have more important things to do – though I can’t remember what those things are right now. If I had an entourage, someone in it could tell me.

Without an entourage, I feel like a nobody. Everybody of any importance throughout history had an entourage, or a retinue, and maybe even both.

Of course, in simpler times it was easier to get by with less. Abraham Lincoln, they say, began his stay in the White House with only one assistant, although he tripled his entourage by the time the Civil War ended. As it turns out, he could have used a few more.

A little more than a century later, Richard Nixon took 200 staffers with him to China in 1972.

A dozen years later when Ronald

Reagan went there, he took 350.

A decade further on, Bill Clinton took 800 with him to China.

I don’t know how big an entourage scurried around Barack Obama when he went to Asia a few weeks ago, but I think scientists recorded a slight wobble in the Earth’s rotation.

I wouldn’t need that many because, for one thing, I have no interest in going to China. A retinue of a few dozen would be plenty when I’m just sort of hanging out and just need someone to make sure my socks match.

Of course, it’s important to maintain good communication with your entourage, even if it’s only two-dozen strong.

It would be a pain to have to keep calling Jim to come and remind me what the socks guy’s name is. So it might be a good idea to fill my entourage with a bunch of guys all named Jim. Except for the ladies in the entourage, of course. I’d have to have a different name for all of them, because no lady – not even a retinue girl – wants to be called Jim. (I think it’s important to be considerate of your retinue’s feelings.

That’s just the kind of guy I am.)

So maybe instead of a Jim-jamboree, I should get an entourage full of men and women all named Chris. That would streamline things.

“Chris!” I would call out from my recliner.

“Yes, sir!” they would say as they tumbled into the room together.

“No, I just need ‘socks’ Chris this time. The rest of you can go play touch football or something. Thanks anyway.

But don’t go too far, because ‘Kardashians’ is almost over, so I’ll need the channel changed soon.”

My entourage would love me, because most of the time when I called their name and they dashed to my side in a jumbled flock, I would let most of them go without putting them to work. Besides, I would be on a first-name basis with all of them.

How many of Bill Clinton’s 800-member China entourage could say the same?

Of course, he probably didn’t need to know their names on a day-to-day basis, because a lot of them probably came along just in case some sort of specialized emergency popped up, like dashing through the streets of Beijing to find a jar of chipotle sauce to garnish the president’s lap-cheong.

Fortunately, we Americans are used to roughing it, or our entourages would be even larger – as they were in France, where a royal entourage would put a small army to shame. And the breadth of their specialization boggles the mind.

For example, two centuries before Lincoln was getting by with a retinue smaller than a golf foursome, according to scholar Timothy Dickinson, France’s Louis XIV “was having an enema, and his marchal de loge [the marshal of the bedchamber] emerged and announced that since the king was having an enema, only the 60 senior ladies could be admitted.”

I can’t imagine what other 60 chores you might think you’ll need performed by your senior female entourage while being poop-purged, but then I’m not French.

It wouldn’t be like that with my entourage, I assure you. If I needed an enema, it would just be me and my marshal of the bedchamber, taking care of business.

Afterward, I would say, “Thanks, Chris. You do good work. Go out to the kitchen and have Chris give you a beer.

Then, if you want to take the rest of the day off, I’ll have Chris drive you home.”

Now who wouldn’t want to join an entourage like that?

I’m taking applications.

EnvironmentTip What should be put in the recycling bin?

To raise the rate of what gets recycled at curbside, be careful not to contaminate the recyclables in your collection bin.

Here’s what can be put in your recycling bin for sure: newspapers, paper, magazines and cardboard; glass bottles and jars; plastic containers,

such as from soft drinks, milk, ice-cream, margarine and yogurt; aluminum, such as soft drink cans and foil trays; and steel cans. Rinse all containers or wipe them out, doing your best to make sure they are free of food.

What can be recycled or reused without going into your recycling bin: plastic bags; plas-

tic wrap; shredded paper ( can go in a garden organics bin); clothes; electronics (anything that plugs in and uses energy); car parts, appliances and paint.

Although these things can be recycled, they must go to a recycling center or collection drive for specific sorting and handling.

Toys, clothing, bedding,

furniture and other usable stuff can be donated for another use.

Don’t throw that stuff in any bin.

“It’s a song that celebrates how loyal the fans have been over the years.

‘Summer of fulfillment’

Local Cubs fan writes song celebrating team’s successful summer

By JAMI KUNZER

A

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

dd songwriter to the list of titles STAR 105.5’s Stew Cohen has collected through the years. That, and Cubs fan.

An author and a familiar radio voice in McHenry County as the news director for both STAR 105.5 (WZSR-FM) and 103.9 The Fox, Cohen’s lyrics celebrating Cubs fans will be performed at 9:50 a.m. Oct. 10 on WGN-TV Morning News.

Cohen teamed up with John Ryan, a guitar player and songwriter for the five-member classic rock band Vertical Jam, and the band’s lead singer, Don Mills, to turn his lyrics for “Summer of Fulfillment in Cubbie Blue” into a song. The two wrote the music, and Vertical Jam performs the song.

“It’s a song that celebrates how loyal the fans have been over the years,” Cohen said. “Hopefully, this will be the year, but, because I’m superstitious, I won’t say the words. I just say, ‘summer of fulfillment.’ I don’t want to jinx the team.”

Cohen regularly writes lyrics, but doesn’t write music or play an instrument. After he’d written the Cubs tribute song, he posted about it on a Facebook page for former students of Maine East High School in Park Ridge, from which he graduated.

A mutual friend saw the posting and connected Cohen with Ryan, also a graduate of Maine East – although he and Cohen didn’t know each other back then.

Ryan and his brother, Jim (not a member of Vertical Jam), have earned Grammy nominations in the past for their instrumental albums.

“It’s funny. We just happened to all be Cubs fans within the band,” John Ryan said. “We saw the lyrics and it was like, ‘Oh, yeah, this seems really special.’ It was kind of the hopes and dreams of all the Cubs fans, and this particular year, they’re doing so great.”

It only took Ryan, who immediately formulated ideas for the music in his head when he saw the lyrics, and Mills about two hours to put the lyrics to music.

TOP: Stew Cohen and his wife, Rita Heuel, of Crystal Lake, attend a Cubs game at Wrigley Field.

“There are about 100 Cubs songs out there,” Ryan said. “Ours rocks a little more. That gives it an edge, I think.”

With its own YouTube video, the song has been performed by the band throughout the area, and parts of the song already were played on WGN-TV Morning News the day after the Cubs clinched the NL Central Division. The station invited Vertical Jam in to perform it live Oct. 10. Cohen will be there, as well.

He’d love to see the song played during the playoffs and – if all goes well – even the World Series, alongside other Cubs songs, such as “Go,

Cubs, Go.” “I would never want to replace ‘Go, Cubs, Go,’ ” he said. “The thought was because there are nine songs the Cubs use during a game, they could use this song in addition to ‘Go, Cubs, Go.’ ” Cohen actually wrote the song before the Cubs season began, knowing what a great year the team had last year and feeling optimistic about the upcoming year.

When he first heard Vertical Jam put his words to music, he said, “I thought it was fantastic.”

“I said, ‘This has to go somewhere. It can’t just go nowhere.’ ”

Presentation examines origins of funeral traditions NORTHWEST HERALD UNION – In “The Victorian Art of Death,” Michael Murschel of Elgin explores America’s embrace of British funerary customs following the death of President Abraham Lincoln on April 15, 1965.

“People are intrigued by this.

I believe there is a latent sense in most of us to find out more about the darker side of our traditions – plus it’s Halloween. People are pre-disposed to this type of thing at this time of year,” Murschel said in a news release. “It’s ‘Penny Dreadful’ type stuff, but I handle it in a respectful way. I hold it up and say: ‘This is who we were and this is how we have become who we are.’ It’s a transformational moment for a lot of people.”

Murschel, a funeral consultant, spiritual director and owner of Caring Farewells Funeral Designers in Elgin, is the author of “The Uncommon History of Elgin, Illinois and Surrounds.” He and friend Judi Brownfield, owner of Books at Sunset, will present “The Victorian Art of Death” at 7 p.m. Oct. 12 at the McHenry County Historical Society Museum, 6422 Main St., Union. Doors to the museum open at 6:30 p.m.

Halloween refreshments in the society’s 1895 West Harmony School will follow. Admission is $5 for society members, $10 for nonmembers.

Murschel, 65, a South Dakota native of Russian descent, moved with his family to Elgin in 1968. In 1975, he married a “third-generation El-

formational language and ritual gets them into a better place.”

His interests evolved to include writing and authoring a quirky book, which led to speaking engagements and “The Victorian Art of Death,” which he launched last year.

Still despondent over the death of her own husband, Prince Albert, four years before, Queen Elizabeth wrote her friend, First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln, after the president’s assassination and helped influence history an ocean away.

“Dear Madam, … No one can better appreciate than I can, who am myself utterly broken-hearted by the loss of my own beloved Husband, who was the Light of my Life, – my Stay – my All, – What your sufferings must be; and I earnestly pray that you may be supported by Him to whom alone the sorely stricken can look for comfort, in this hour of heavy affliction. …”

– Queen Victoria to Mary Todd Lincoln, April 29, 1865

stepped into there,” Murschel said.

“I’m Lutheran, but I don’t want to see anybody go through that pain.

How a lot of us view that is we’re doing two things: ministry to the deceased, to be true to their tradition and to usher that soul or spirit into the next world; and then on the other side of it is the care and attention to the survivors. … To me it’s about healing and closure. All of this trans-

Murschel said attendees will be treated to a “Ken Burns experience” with readings, letters and real-life images from that time period. He said he has managed to tap into a public fascination with historic funerary customs and symbolism.

“It’s very engaging,” he said.

“People can expect a boatload of their senses being engaged as we transport them back to that time.”

Photographer, director, actor and more among Woodstock Fine Art Association series’ speakers

A

By LINDSAY WEBER

editorial@nwherald.com

t 99 years old, Betty Hale has seen a great many things, including a majority of the Woodstock Fine Arts’ Creative Living Series guest speakers.

“I’ve been attending the lecture series now for over 40 years,” said Hale, of Woodstock. “They always get very interesting speakers, and you never get the same thing twice. The committee does a really great job of bringing in different types of philosophies.”

In its 53rd year, the Creative Living Series starts its 2016-17 season Oct. 20 with artist Rick Guidotti, founder and director of the nonprofit organization Positive Exposure. The well-known fashion photographer uses his lens as a looking glass for perspective on beauty and humanity.

“As a fashion photographer in New York City, I worked with a lot of models and was always told what was beautiful,” Guidotti said. “One day, I was waiting for a bus and I saw a woman waiting with albinism. And I just thought she was so beautiful. I Rick Guidotti went looking for photos with people with the same condition, and I was confronted with nothing but horrible photographs in medical textbooks. It wasn’t right. We need to see beyond disease and diagnosis, but society does not allow us to see it and embrace it. I feel it’s my responsibility to the community and the world that there is beauty in their own reflection and share that in the global arena.”

Guidotti’s photos have been exhibited in many venues throughout the United States as well as other countries. The photos then are gifted to the organizations that represent these human conditions for use on their websites and alongside condition information to allow for positive exposure of the subjects.

“There are so many rare genetic conditions out there that are represented by these scary medical images. We gift all of the images to the organization to give them images on their website so people can see images how

“We need to see beyond disease and diagnosis, but society does not allow us to see it and embrace it. I feel it’s my responsibility to the community and the world that there is beauty in their own reflection and share that in the global arena.”

their parents and family see them.

They aren’t just their syndrome,” Guidotti said.

Guidotti’s lecture, titled “On Beauty: Positive Exposure,” will explore the unexpected beauty he was able to find through his photography. Guidotti’s documentary, “On Beauty,” will be viewed to further capture Guidotti’s message of “I am amazing,” with a Q&A to follow.

The season also will include an actor, playwright, director from Chicago’s Lookingglass Theater, an American historian, a reproductive expert, a quilting enthusiast and PBS show host and an actress who received an Oscar nomination at 10 years-old.

Historian Andrew Carroll will present “Here Is Where: Discovering America’s Great Forgotten History” on Nov. 17, discussing his travels to find unmarked historic sites.

Quilter Mary Fons will present “A Thirtysomething Quilter Tells All: Notes on the Industry From a Quilt Mafia Daughter” on Jan. 19.

See CREATIVE, page 7

• CREATIVE

Continued from page 6 Fons is co-host of the PBS show “Love of Quilting” and co-hosts the “Quilt Your Heart Out” podcast with her mom, quilt legend Marianne Fons. Her fabric line Small Wonder launched in 2015, and she also writes the Quilt Scout column at quilts.com and for her blog, Papergirl, at maryfons.com.

Actor, playwright, director and teacher David Catlin from Chicago’s Lookingglass Theatre Company will present “Making Theater” on Feb. 16.

He will share the company’s journey from its beginnings to realizing its goal to redefine the limits of theatrical experience to make theater

David Catlin exhilarating, inspiration and accessible to all.

Robert Martin, emeritus curator of biological anthropology at Chicago’s Field Museum, will present “How We Do It: The Evolution and Future of Human Reproduction” on March 16.

He will discuss humans’ evolutionary past in terms of child-rearing practices and other aspects of reproduction, examining what worked, what didn’t and what it means for our future.

Closing out the series April 20 will be a presentation by Mary Badham, who played Scout Finch in “To Kill A Mockingbird,” which earned her an Oscar nomination for best supporting actress at age 10. In “Gregory Peck, Harper Lee & Me,” Badham continues to spread the message of tolerance and compassion in Harper Lee’s book

All programs begin at 10 a.m. at the Woodstock Opera House, 121 W. Van Buren St., with coffee and conversation offered at 9 a.m. at Stage Left Café, next door to the theater.

The programs are $25 each, or a series package may be bought for $115 through the box office at 815-338-5300 or www.woodstockoperahouse.com.

A list that diverse doesn’t come without hard work from a very dedicated committee.

“It’s always the same challenge,” Creative Living Series Co-chair Marsha Portnoy said. “Put a season together that has a diversity of backgrounds in terms of the speakers, attracts both men and women and

Mary Badham doesn’t seem repetitive, but we’ve been doing it. At any rate, it’s always kind of a high-wire act, and it’s a little miracle that we pull the season together, but it’s always a good season.”

Portnoy said she knows their subscribers trust the committee to put together an interesting series.

She also boasts the Woodstock Opera House’s very private venue that gives attendees a feeling like they’re in someone’s living room instead of a standard auditorium atmosphere.

“You always get more than what you think you’ve come to see,” Portnoy said. “It opens up the world to you.”

Gem Talk The Opal

Gem Talk

®

The word opal comes from the Latin word “opalus” meaning

By Karly Bulinski precious jewel. The Romans called it “Cupid Paederos”, meaning a child beautiful as love. In mythology, the gods saw it as the embodiment of the beauty of all precious stones. Opals were said to be the tears of joy shed by Zeus when he conquered the Titans.

The opal dates back to prehistoric times. It is non-crystallized silica, which is a mineral found near the earth’s surface in areas where geothermal hot springs existed. As the hot springs dried up, layers of silica combined with water, were deposited into the bedrock cracks forming opal. Opals contain up to 30% water, so it is very important to protect it from heat and harsh chemicals. With a ranking of only 5.5 on the Moh’s Hardness Scale, opal is very soft and can break easily so it must be protected from sharp blows.

There are 4 types of precious opals: white (also known as light opals), fire, water and black opals. White are the most common and the black opals are the most rare.

Opals were believed to ward off nightmares and protect the eyesight. They were set into crowns and worn in necklaces to ward off evil. It has a beneficial effect on the psyche, healing broken hearts and restoring inner harmony. Opal is believed to provide foresight and prophecy.

The opal is the national gemstone of Australia and the suggested stone for the 14th wedding anniversary. A gift of opal is symbolic of faithfulness and confidence.

Molly Hillig Rodriguez

Conference helps mothers, daughters connect I recently found myself in the midst of many projects – traveling to Alaska, preparing to launch a new subscriber website, business meetings, cleaning house to transform it into a baby-safe place and the regular household chores. I noticed myself feeling short-fused with loved ones and was having some trouble falling asleep at night. This feeling was familiar. I had said “Yes” to too many tasks and not enough “Yeses” to the things that align with my values. I was overbooked and undernourished.

I know I am not alone when I say we try and manage too many things in our lives to meet unrealistic expectations. We and everyone around us suffers for it. Mothers particularly can relate to trying to achieve too many things at one time – friends and family judgments, traffic, school meetings,

challenging teens and housework. I am about to be a mother, so I wanted to look at my pattern of overbooking and undernourishing myself before my baby is born.

I asked myself, is it time to Get Real here? Kelly Vance, a mother of two, first asked herself and a whole community this question in 2005 at Get Real, a Mother–Daughter Conference, where women and girls get real with the struggles mothers and daughters face. Women receive tools to overcome and thrive during the challenging preteen through young adult years.

At the time, Kelly wanted her daughters to avoid the ugly stigma that accompanies pre-teen and teen years. She knows these years can be wounding to both mothers and daughters, and she wants to provide hope.

Kelly knows her behaviors and beliefs

as a human and mother directly to women of all ages, and it is not necessary to attend in a mother-daughter correlate to the behaviors and beliefs pair. Laughter, breakout sessions of her daughters. She leveraged this understanding to support mothers and and powerful keynote speakers will enlighten the audience with various daughters in the community with an topics. opportunity to get real by discussing If you have additional questions life’s real issues in acceptance. or are curious about scholarship All humans, in particular women, information, contact Kelly at kelneed a place of abundance to grow together and speak honestly with each ly@girlsembracingtruth.com.

Finding fulfillment through contentment, not success “James” always had a plan. He thought ahead, arranged the pieces on the board and almost always came out on top.

His dad was a self-made man, a successful businessman and a hard driver. He never seemed to blink an eye when cutting jobs or cutting bait in general. He was on his third wife, this one about James’s age, and was having a difficult time not micromanaging everybody’s life now that he was retired.

His dad had been a heavy drinker all his life, and when the doctor told him if he continued he’d be dead in a year, he quit, cold-turkey.

What once had been understandable and marginally

acceptable eccentricities now became family battlegrounds.

Nobody wanted to be around him. James and his sister secretly wished he would take a drink. His wife just smiled and went shopping.

As much as James hated the way he was raised and hated what alcohol did to his father, he had the same ego-driven personality.

Drinking had never been a problem in his younger years, but despite the strict management of his alcohol intake – two cocktails a night – things started to slip out of his ability to manage.

When his business plans started to go south, he felt guilty and inferior. Having no real friends who might

listen and too proud to ask for guidance, he allowed himself a few more drinks each night.

This led to some instances where he lost control and got smashed. It took three years of blackout drinking for James to get the message.

He crept, full of shame and embarrassment, into an AA meeting, hoping he wouldn’t see anyone who might know him.

That was almost 14 years ago, and today, James would tell you things didn’t quite turn out like he had planned.

In fact, things didn’t turn out at all like he had planned.

He had planned to make a million and retire by 40.

Instead, he lost his business and took a sales job that paid

a quarter of what he had been making. The funny thing was, instead of drinking over the loss, he felt relief and gratitude. He hadn’t planned for that.

He had thought everything should go according to his plan, and when it didn’t, he was angry and disappointed and felt unfairly treated by the world and everybody in it. He learned what was necessary for happiness was a fundamental way in which he perceived events.

When things happened that weren’t to his liking, instead of striving for tighter control, he learned acceptance. After acceptance came self-examination of what needed to be learned and

how to apply it.

James learned to look at life like a student rather than the master of the universe.

He learned happiness had more to do with contentment than it did with success. He found even when external things seemed to be going badly, he was happier and more fulfilled on his worst day sober than he ever was on his best day drunk.
