Good morning, McHenry County ...

Hey, Illinois, where’s everybody going?

If everybody wants to leave Illinois so badly, what the heck are we all still doing here?

A Tuesday Northwest Herald story told you about how a Paul Simon Public Policy poll said that 47 percent of Illinoisans besides Alshon Jeffery want to leave the state. Pfft. Ask Art Garfunkel what Paul Simon knows about loyalty ... OK, different Paul Simon. Still.

I’ve never lived elsewhere – born in Chicago, high school in Chicago, college in DeKalb.

While I’ve have many addresses, they’ve all ended in Illinois ZIP codes.

Sometimes I leave Illinois. Just this past weekend, we drove through four states to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Saw most of Indiana, which based on my two trips down I-65 is populated by deranged semi drivers who’d leave Mad Max sobbing and hiding in the nearest Cracker Barrel.

Kentucky is a gorgeous state, but I’m good passing through. Tennessee? Love the national park, but the main drags of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg are the stuff of Yankee nightmares.

There’s more to Tennessee than that, but

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Kevin Lyons I’m sure I’d make a lousy Volunteer. While I do love Jesus, I’m uncomfortable talking about him with strangers, and I don’t think he’d mind if I wanted to pick up a bottle of bourbon on a Sunday.

Maybe someday, we’ll leave. Who knows?

My wife was raised in both Wisconsin and Illinois, so she has no real loyalty. But we do have great friends, families and lives that would be hard to leave even for some property tax-free paradise.

Guess we’re stuck with each other for the time being.

NEW YORK – McDonald’s said Ronald McDonald is keeping a low profile with reports of creepy clown sightings on the rise.

McDonald’s Corp. said Tuesday that it is being “thoughtful in respect to Ronald McDonald’s participation in community events” as a result of the “current climate around clown sightings in communities.”

The company did not provide any other details about how often its red-haired mascot makes appearances, and how that will change.

The burger chain’s decision comes after a rash of pranks around the country that have involved eerie clown sightings.

The reports have forced police in some areas to respond.

kcraver@shawmedia.com McHenry County Clerk Mary McClellan is reassuring voters that the problems that plagued the March 15 primary will not resurface in the Nov. 8 election.

The communications and technical issues identified in the days after the election, and in an Illinois State Board of Elections report requested by an angry state legislator, have been addressed, she said.

“I suspect we’ll have 80 percent turnout, but were going to be 100 percent prepared,” McClellan said.

that arose during the primary, combined with a record turnout, resulted in unofficial results not being posted until the next day.

McClellan said she hopes to have results this election posted no later than 10 p.m., or three hours after the

polls close.

Problems in the primary started at the 6 a.m. start of voting. Several precincts could not open on time because of problems with some of the electronic poll books used to keep voter records.

Election judges calling in to the clerk’s office overwhelmed the phone system. The entire county government complex in Woodstock – including the courthouse and jail – is served by only 75 phone lines. Most calls that did get through were answered by the office’s voice mail system telling them the office wasn’t open yet for business.

The county’s IT personnel will be able to expand the county clerk’s phone capability to 150 lines, McClellan said. What’s more, she will staff two command centers to field calls Nov. 8 – one for election judges and

WOODSTOCK – A Huntley man accused in the beating death of his wife pleaded guilty Tuesday to a second-degree murder charge.

Edward Hartgraves, 66, was charged with the first-degree murder of his wife, Carol S. Hartgraves, in March 2015. The charge was reduced Tuesday in exchange for his guilty Edward plea. McHenry County Hartgraves Judge Sharon Prather will determine his sentence because there is no agreement between the prosecution and defense.

Hartgraves was first charged with domestic battery March 20, 2015, after authorities said he pushed, strangled and punched Carol Hartgraves several times in the face. She had a broken arm, was bleeding from the chin and was disoriented when she spoke with authorities, police have said.

He reportedly called 911 hours after the incident to report that his wife needed medical attention. According to court documents, Edward Hartgraves said he pushed his wife “out of anger.”

Hartgraves posted bond on the felony charges but days later his wife died and he was charged with first-degree murder, according to court documents. An autopsy was conducted by pathologist Nancy Jones, who determined that Carol Hartgraves died from multiple injuries because of blunt force trauma, according to court documents. Cirrhosis of the liver also was considered to be a contributing factor, court documents said.

This was not the first time police had responded to the home for a reported domestic disturbance. Edward Hartgraves previously was charged with domestic battery in November 2014 in Cook County when the couple lived in Schaumburg.

He was charged in February 2015 with violating an order of protection in Cook County.

The order of protection instructed him not to consume alcohol in the presence of

his wife, according to court documents.

On March 6, 2015, his attorney asked a McHenry County judge to modify his bond to allow him back into his home with Carol Hartgraves, according to court documents.

Judge Charles Weech allowed the modification but instructed the defendant not “possess any alcohol in any way, shape or form, or consume alcohol in any way, shape or form.” He also said he must not have any firearms or ammunition in the home and continue his treatment for alcoholism.

Albert Wysocki, Hartgraves’ attorney, said the right decision was made in order to do justice without putting family members through a lot of anxiety. He said alcoholism was a “prevalent and pervasive” aspect in both of their lives, but the two had children and grandchildren and were married for at least 30 years.

Hartgraves faces at least four and up to 20 years in prison. He remains in custody in lieu of $5 million bond ahead of sentencing Nov. 16 and 17.

Woodstock group has October fundraisers for homeless planned NORTHWEST HERALD WOODSTOCK – The Woodstock Area Community Ministry has a few big fundraisers planned in October, including a chicken dinner, a 5K and a cookbook sale to help the area homeless.

The mission of Woodstock Area Community Ministry is to generate leadership and resources to provide emergency assistance to homeless people in McHenry County, and to community members who are in financial crisis and reside within the boundaries of Woodstock School District 200.

Its programs include supervision of the Woodstock PADS rotating homeless shelter site and daytime drop-in

facility, as well as the Direct Assistance Program that provides emergency cash and other forms of assistance to those in need who fall through the cracks of other programs.

Last year, organization representatives said WACM provided $45,282.02 to help those in need. It distributed $24,740 in food, $10,025 in clothing, $524 in utilities, $8,480 in gasoline, $1,444 in bus passes and $427 in medical expenses.

On average, WACM helps 120 children and 111 adults each month. October is WACM month, and the organization, which receives no government funds, relies on fundraising programs this time of the year to continue its work.

• A chicken dinner will be from 4 to 8:30 p.m. Monday at Crandall’s Restaurant, 10441 Route 47 in Hebron. Crandall’s is usually closed Mondays but is opening its doors to support WACM programs.

They will offer an all-you-can-eat buffet featuring broasted chicken or carryout for $15 for an adult or $8 a child. Patrons also can buy a meal for a veteran at the nearby New Horizons Transitional Living facility. Tickets can be bought at WACM member churches before or after Sunday services or online at www. wacmgroup.org. Walk-ins are welcome.

• The annual Woodstock Walk for Hunger steps off at 1 p.m. Oct. 23. The 5K walk will wind through Emricson

Park. There is no registration fee. Walkers can sign up and collect sponsors for their participation. All proceeds from the walk go directly to support people in need in the Woodstock community.

To register or donate, visit www.wacmgroup.org.

• A cookbook, “Recipes from the Heart: A Collection of WACM’s Best Recipes” also will be on sale for $14.95 each or 3 for $40 at Read Between the Lynes bookstore on the Woodstock Square. Cooks and bakers from a dozen area congregations have contributed more than 260 recipes to the hardcover collection. Proceeds from the cookbook sales support the PADS site and drop-in center.

Judge rules woman shot by deputies guilty of assault Charges stem from McHenry County sheriff’s deputies responding to report of suicidal subject in Wonder Lake

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A McHenry County judge found a Fox Lake woman who authorities say advanced toward and pointed an assault rifle at police officers guilty of weapons and aggravated assault charges.

Judge Michael Feetterer found Elizabeth Kloss guilty Tuesday of two counts of aggravated assault, two counts of possession of firearms without a valid FOID Elizabeth card and one count of Kloss possession of ammunition without a valid FOID card after the September bench trial.

Kloss faces a prison term of at least three but no more than seven years, or she could be given probation. She will be sentenced Nov. 29.

Feetterer said Kloss placed two McHenry County sheriff’s deputies in reasonable apprehension of receiving bodily harm when they responded to the 7400 block of Boston Avenue in Wonder Lake on July 20, 2014, for reports of a suicidal subject.

Kloss was cleaning her then-boyfriend Robert Lehr’s home that day because he was at an inpatient physical

rehabilitation facility.

Kloss had been upset at the time of the incident after an argument with her mother, and she had communicated suicidal thoughts before.

Kloss called Lehr that morning and made “concerning statements” to him. She also said she had fired two shots outside of his home with one of his guns, and she was worried police officers were going to arrive at the residence.

Kloss never possessed a FOID card or concealed carry card, according to the Illinois State Police.

Later that day, Kloss called Lehr again and told him she had a gun to her head and was going to commit suicide.

Lehr became immediately concerned and alerted a nurse to call 911.

Feetterer said Kloss knew the two deputies responding to Lehr’s home were police officers because they identified themselves several times and were in full uniform the day of the incident. Deputies attempted to make contact with Kloss as she appeared through the window with a gun.

McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Justin McKenzie, who arrived on the scene, testified at trial that they attempted to get her outside the residence so she could surrender and be taken for a mental health evaluation.

McKenzie said they again asked her to put the gun down and come outside, but she did not listen and proceeded to go into and outside the home a number of times both unarmed and with a weapon.

Kloss then came outside the front door once more with an assault rifle, advanced toward the officers and pointed it in the direction of two deputies, prosecutors said. Deputies fired several rounds at Kloss and struck her once in the head. Kloss was treated at the scene and taken to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville for further treatment.

Feetterer said Kloss’ attorney, Robert Loeb, disputed the testimony of the deputies at trial. Loeb argued that the officers did not have a reasonable apprehension of being attacked immediately, and that they might have shot Kloss prematurely.

Despite Loeb’s arguments, Feetterer said their testimony was “credible,” and the officers were in the best position to see what Kloss was holding once she was outside the home. He said the police officers feared they would be shot, and so the apprehension was reasonable.

“This was no routine traffic stop … one not easily forgotten,” Feetterer said.

WOODSTOCK – A McHenry County judge sentenced a former McHenry man to two years’ probation after he admitted to sexually abusing a 21-year-old woman in 2015.

Nicholas J. Nowicki, 34, pleaded guilty Tuesday to an amended charge of aggravated criminal sexual abuse, a Class 2 felony. The felony charge is punishable by three to seven years in prison or probation.

Judge Sharon Prather accepted Nicholas J. the plea agreement. Nowicki pre- Nowicki viously pleaded guilty in August to one count of criminal sexual assault, but that charge was not probationable so he pleaded guilty to an amended charge.

In addition to probation, Nowicki was sentenced to 365 days in McHenry County Jail. He

will receive credit for the time already served in jail since his 2015 arrest. He also will pay a $500 fine and court costs, and he will be required to register as a sex offender. All other charges against him were dismissed by the state’s attorney’s office.

His attorney, Assistant Public Defender Angelo Mourelatos, said Nowicki will serve his probation in Cook County where he now resides.

Nowicki was arrested and charged in May 2015 with two counts of criminal sexual assault.

Prosecutors previously said the woman told police she was having trouble sleeping and ingested a Klonopin from her mother. The woman reportedly told police that she woke up as Nowicki was having sex with her.

She said she told police that Nowicki allegedly punched her in the face and she passed out. The victim said she then woke up a second time with Nowicki again on top of her, prosecutors previously said.

poll books malfunctioned because of a problem upgrading their software to the latest voter records.

All 650 poll books that will be in operation – three in each of the county’s 212 precincts, plus those for higher-ups and troubleshooters – will be turned on and tested again at the end of this week. And on the afternoon before the election, judges will test them one more time.

“That gives us 14 hours to fix any issues that may arise,” McClellan said.

In case of problems on Election Day, she also will position several employees to respond to calls for service based on geographic area to lower response time.

The testing also has included the online chat system on the poll books that some judges said did not work properly during the primary. Several precincts did not get word that voting hours were extended 90 minutes by court order, and closed at 7 p.m. McClellan said the system will be used only to relay noncritical messages, and that emergency issues will be handled by phone and the new call centers.

Another change that will expedite the tabulation process came from the state. A change to election law now allows county clerks to tabulate votes by mail upon receipt. In past elections, clerks were not allowed to even access the ballots until after the polls closed, which meant that they had to be counted along with the results streaming in from 212 precincts – in McHenry County, the clerk historically counted them after the precincts had been counted.

Early voting already is underway at the clerk’s office at 667 Ware Road, Woodstock, through Oct. 21.

Crystal Lake residents working to tackle global wastewater treatment problem

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – When Mohammed Haque took a trip home to South Asia, he was struck by the lack of infrastructure needed to treat wastewater.

Haque, who lives in Crystal Lake and works as district manager for Lakes Region Sanitary District, founded nonprofit Global Water Stewardship with the mission to help small villages develop centralized systems to treat unsanitary wastewater, which can cause health and environmental problems if left unaddressed. Engineering students from the Midwest compete to develop systems that eventually could become installed in the villages.

“The inspiration for it came from my own personal travels to South Asia,” Haque said. “I have seen people in India, in Pakistan, who live with no sanitation and have sewage flowing into the street. I realized how in North America we take those things for granted.”

GWS targets communities of about 500 to 1,500 and currently is working with three different places in Costa

“The inspiration for it came from my own personal travels to South Asia. I have seen people in India, in Pakistan, who live with no sanitation and have sewage flowing into the street. I realized how in North America we take those things for granted.”

Mohammed Haque, Global Water Stewardship founder Rica. About 2.4 billion people lack sanitation facilities. Poverty and lack of technical knowledge can lead to these issues, Haque said.

“One of the things we need to be conscious of is that these are major infrastructure projects,” he said. “We aren’t just going in and putting in a few latrines. We are putting in a permanent, sustainable infrastructure like we have in the United States. It’s part of a long-term capital improvement plan.”

The organization offers a chance for students and young professionals to get involved with what is quickly becoming a global priority. Much global focus previously has been placed on access to clean drinking water, and wastewater sanitation has fallen to the

wayside, Haque said.

“It’s not sexy, so it doesn’t get much attention,” he said. “But I think this is the decade where we will make significant progress.”

Education also is a key aspect of the work GWS completes, said Alex Knicker, social media chair of the organization. The group visits schools and conducts educational sessions with people when they visit different communities. The student competition aspect also increases awareness.

“Wastewater is a much bigger issue than people realize,” she said. “It’s easy to say, ‘Oh, it’s flushed away,’ and we don’t have to think about it. But with the gravity of the situation, it is nice to be able to talk to people about that and remind them why it is important.”

Health care hassles better than being uninsured For someone who wasn’t too knowledgeable about health insurance, I have learned a lot over the past year or so.

Sure, I knew enough to take part in my plan at work when I was employed full time. I also knew that it was better to use doctors in the plan’s network and to take generic drugs whenever possible to keep my out-of-pocket costs down.

However, I’d never until recently felt the dread of not knowing if I could afford a health insurance plan and whether I’d be able to afford the medications that my longtime doctors had prescribed. All that came when my dear husband had to leave his job because of his Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis.

When that happened, we were on his plan from work. In fact, we wound up keeping his insurance for him through the end of last year. That meant that we exercised his right to continued coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act, aka COBRA. Of course, that meant that we were on the hook for the entire amount of his coverage. Had I stayed on it, too, it would have meant spending more than $1,400 a month on health insurance alone. We just couldn’t afford that.

VIEWS Joan Oliver So, since I was working only part time and not entitled to benefits, I decided to test out the health insurance marketplace at healthcare.gov.

After a lot of anxiety and a lot of questions to a more knowledgeable friend, I was able to sign up for a plan for the last three months of 2015 through the marketplace. To my relief, I found something that had decent coverage that I could afford.

Just about the time I was starting to relax, it was time to sign up for a plan for 2016, this time for my husband and me.

Unfortunately, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois did away with that great plan that I had just signed up for a mere three months earlier. Too popular, it explained.

So it was back to square one. After another round of anxiety and questions, I selected a plan that had all of my husband’s doctors in network. Unfortunately, it was a Land of Lincoln plan.

Sound familiar? It should. It’s the failed insurer that was taken over by

FALL SAVINGS EVENT v1 collection

the Illinois Department of Insurance.

There were about 49,000 of us affected by the action.

Of course, that meant a return to the health insurance marketplace yet again to find yet another plan that will be in effect for three months. Oh, and did I mention that our deductible went back to zero? Nice.

Despite the number of hoops we’ve jumped through, I still find myself grateful that we’ve had insurance at all. One of my two allergy prescriptions – a generic, no less – would have cost more than $100 for a month’s supply had I had to pay cash. I shudder at the thought of what drugs for more serious conditions would cost without coverage. With coverage, my medication cost less than $10.

Yet, next month, I’ll have to begin all over again to choose a plan for 2017.

That is, if there is one. And if there’s not, people like me, who aren’t out to game the system and just want to be able to afford our health care, could be left in the lurch.

And that’s a very scary thought.

2-SIDED QUEEN SETS

LOCAL BRIEF

To achieve a professional finish, those hand-crafting mats for art or photographs need two things: quality materials, strong enough to withstand the cutting process, and dependable cutting tools, calibrated to produce the straight edges, clean bevels and crisp corners of a polished paper frame Mats can be functional – hinged at the top to encase the work, serving as a buffer – or decorative, cut to fit an image and serving as a border.

They’re made of mat board, a sturdy, paper-based material traditionally used to mount pictures and scientific specimens.

Framers generally correlate quality and weight, and often combine four, six and eightply boards of different depths for strength and effect. Other indicative characteristics include the board’s acidity – acid-free lasts the longest, and core composition. Cream core is inexpensive, while true black and bright white cores are acid-free.

The purer the color, the better.

The quality of a finished mat is determined by the angles, accuracy and alignment of its cuts. A 45-degree bevel is standard – but only on the mat window’s inner edges. The outer cuts – the edges of the mat itself – are straight, at 90 degrees.

Good corner cuts pivot sharply, without wavering into the border. The edges of proportional double mats run parallel.

Different cutting tools are made to handle different thicknesses of board, cut volumes and rates. Machines range from high-end cutting systems, with ball bearings and corner stops, to manual handhelds powered by practice and elbow grease. All of these can produce multiple beveled mats in short order.

Cutting kits are designed for first-timers and occasional makers. They contain a handheld and other essentials like blades, guides and practice boards.

Basic tools, like utility knives, rulers and selfhealing surfaces can’t produce the angled cuts, but results can be functional and inexpensive.

Local businesses are helping to build the new garage, and Stanko said the expansion should be complete by winter.

CARY – Organizers at the CaryGrove Food Pantry are expanding their space and the types of food they provide.

Board President Melody Stanko said the pantry at St. Barnabas Lutheran Church, 8901 Cary Algonquin Road, Cary, serves an average of 180 families a month.

With an increase in donations of fridges, freezers and fresh food from local grocery stores, the pantry needs more room for storage, Stanko said.

“It’s not just a can of food sitting on the shelf anymore,” Stanko said. “The food pantries are changing their whole look [with] healthier food for people.”

Having space to properly store frozen meats, fruits and vegetables is especially important because the pantry is open only a few days a week, Stanko said. More space will allow the pantry to take in more donations, better display fresh food and give volunteers more room to work, she said.

“It is changing a lot,” said Sam Houk, the board’s vice president. “I’ve been there 10 years now, and it’s much

Sheriff’s Office seeking $5K grant toward K-9 program

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office is asking residents to vote daily so the department can win a $5,000 grant toward its K-9 program.

The grant will be given away through the Aftermath K-9 Contest, and the law enforcement office that accumulates the most votes though Oct. 31 will be the recipient.

“Our K-9 program is something that the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office takes great pride in,” Sheriff’s Deputy Aimee Knop said. “And there’s always an additional need for training and equipment, so this grant would really help our K-9 teams.”

Knop said the money could go toward getting a new K-9 treadmill or other safety equipment.

“If we get this grant, it will help us aid our K-9s for things that we can’t afford otherwise right now,” Knop said.

“We are really investing in our dogs to keep them alive and well as long as we can.”

Debate sensation Kenneth Bone reveals wardrobe malfunction

By JOSEPH BUSTOS

Belleville News Democrat SHILOH – When Kenneth Bone got dressed Sunday morning, he squeezed into an olive-colored suit he really didn’t fit into anymore. When he got in his car to drive to Washington University to be a participant in a townhall style presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, he tore his pants.

So his wife, Heather, got him a red sweater and cargo khaki pants, an outfit that would lead to him becoming an internet sensation.

“This was an emergency wardrobe change, facilitated by my wife,” Bone said Monday. “It was the nicest thing I owned that I could put on in 30 seconds.”

The 34-year-old Shiloh resident said his 15 minutes of fame is ridiculous.

“I’m just glad I was able to bring a little bit of lightheartedness to a very divisive night with a lot of nastiness and name calling,” Bone said Monday afternoon inside his Shiloh home. “So

I hope some good, old-fashion Midwestern good humor will help us get engaged in the political process instead of all the divisive rhetoric.”

Shortly after Bone – one of the undecided voters from the St. Louis-area selected by Gallup in the audience for the presidential debate in St. Louis – asked a question about energy policy, his internet popularity instantly soared with comments about his red sweater and mustache.

Some have compared him to the fictional character Peter Griffin on the TV show “Family Guy.” Someone came up with a Halloween costume mimicking him.

And there have been comparisons to him being this year’s “Joe the Plumber” representing middle-class voters.

Bone works at a coal-fired power plant. His question: “What steps will your energy policy take to meet our energy needs while at the same time remaining environmentally friendly and minimizing job layoffs?”

He said he liked Trump’s answer, but wished he addressed the environ-

mental concerns more, and wished Clinton addressed more about the potential for job losses and transitioning workers to renewable energy positions.

“The biggest reason I’m undecided is because we’ve heard a lot of negativity from both sides,” Bone said. “I like to make my decision based on the positives I see from the candidates, and there are not a lot of positive points being made by either of the candidates to get a 100 percent commitment from me.”

Bone said he is conflicted because a Trump presidency would more likely serve his personal economic interests, but he is afraid of the justices Trump could appoint to the Supreme Court and how that could affect rights decided during the past eight years.

“It’s almost a personal interest versus community for me,” Bone said.

On Monday, Bone had interviews with the NBC affiliate in Dallas, sports talk radio, CNN, local television news channels, the Washington Post, “Access Hollywood,” BBC, Dr. Drew, Headline News and “Fox and Friends.”

Bone also was prepping to have an interview with Jimmy Kimmel.

On Sunday he had seven Twitter followers, two of whom were his grandmother, who needed to start a second account because she forgot her password.

As of Monday afternoon, he had about 36,600 followers.

“I want to believe it’s not because of the silly wardrobe choices, but that does contribute to it, because the internet is always going to have some fun,” Bone said. “I think the substance of it is, it was a very negative debate and very uncomfortable to watch. To be the voice of reason and pull us back to the issues and just be the friendly, smiling Midwesterner, hopefully that was a little beacon of light of what was a pretty tough day for everybody.”

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

The levy was put into place because the need was there. It was more than successful, and a surplus was created. Now with a surplus in the $40,000,000 range, it is time to remove or greatly cut the levy. As to the second question, the removal of Valley Hi from the care of McHenry County, leaders must seriously consider this issue. McHenry County Government is charged, through Valley Hi, with taking care of the most vulnerable in our community.

Should another agency with a positive history of caring more compassionately yet effectively for the aged than the county can, this should definitely be considered in the future.

Valley Hi is an important asset to the county which helps us to maintain an exceptional credit rating, which is good for our county government’s budget in the long term.

I am in favor of gradually reducing the levy.

We still need to keep the levy for reasonable cash reserves because if costs go up, then cash reserves would protect the taxpayers from increased costs and tax increases in future. The McHenry County voters voted the funds to build and maintain the new Valley Hi Nursing Home, so I believe we should represent the will of the voters.

The Valley Hi Nursing Home surplus is a prime example of a tax levying body collecting more tax revenue than it requires. Unfortunately, the County Board and the administration allowed this to go on too long, but last year they correctly zeroed out the levy. When the County Board correctly zeroes out the levy this year it will abolish the levy and that is the proper action to take. Valley Hi has had immense success getting their budget in order and finding effective solutions to past problems, which is one of the primary reasons they no longer require a tax levy to support operations. Valley Hi is not in current danger of spending down the surplus quickly, and if/when the time comes that operations might require taxpayer subsistence, we will put forth a referendum to allow the voters, not politicians and administrators, to determine the proper course of action.

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

My major concern is the time spent discussing issues such as the Advisory Anti-Corruption Referendum, which will now be on the county voters’ ballot. I am a business person, not a politician, so I really do not understand the amount of time it took to discuss the referendum. Not a bad idea to place this advisory Anti-Corruption Referendum on the ballot, but since the results are not legally binding and the full board only meets twice each month, too much time spent on an advisory referendum in discussion is a waste of time. Since I have worked with committees extensively, I am well aware of the fatigue factor. Elongated discussions on nonessential issues make the meetings longer and by hour three, human nature is such that attention is affected and voting at that hour could be flawed.

The decision to adopt Bruce Rauner’s turnaround agenda. The nonbinding resolution was insulting to the working families of McHenry County, paints a dark vision of what kind of community the current County Board is trying to create, wasted the time and tax dollars of the citizens of McHenry County, and resulted in a lawsuit costing the county $25,000.

The County Board violated the law by violating the Open Meeting Act. That was an inexcusable action that cost me and my fellow taxpayers $25,000. McHenry County families have the legal right to see the board conduct its business in public meetings. I will fight to take transparency a step further by having all board meetings held at night so that working people can participate in their democracy.

I disagree with the decision to proceed with the full land acquisition for the Randall Road project. ... do believe the Randall Road-Algonquin Road intersection needs some improvement, but I do not believe the full project as planned is required. If we make a future decision to reduce the extent of the Randall Road project to a smaller, more tax-friendly project, we will have acquired land that is unused, and is unsellable to the public. While that land acquisition would provide for future expansion, we will only be hoping that the price paid this year will be a better deal than acquisition in the future would be. That might be a valid aspect, if our population starts to grow again, and our economy rebounds, but otherwise it likely can turn out to be misspent dollars at a time when taxpayers are hurting the most.

Boy who was ‘Lost on a Mountain in Maine’ dies

By DAVID SHARP

The Associated Press PORTLAND, Maine – Donn Fendler, who as a boy survived nine days alone on Maine’s tallest mountain in 1939 and later wrote a book about the ordeal, has died at 90.

Fendler collaborated with Joseph B. Egan on a book, “Lost on a Mountain in Maine,” which was required reading for many fourth-graders in Maine. He also enjoyed visiting schools to tell his story.

He died Monday in Bangor, Maine, after being hospitalized for failing health, family members said.

“He loved Maine. He loved kids. He loved telling his story to kids to help them keep their cool if they get lost,” said his niece, Nancy Fendler.

Fendler said he used techniques learned as a Boy Scout to survive on Mount Katahdin, the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail.

As a 12-year-old, Fendler got lost while hiking and made his way down the mountain and through the woods to the east branch of the Penobscot River, where he was found more than 30 miles from where he started. Bruised and cut, starved and shoeless, he’d survived by eating berries. He had lost 15 pounds.

The book became a children’s classic. A graphic novel, “Lost Trail, Nine Days Alone in the Wilderness,” was published five years ago. A movie is now in the works.

Donn Fendler, of Rye, N.Y., is honored by President Franklin Roosevelt on Oct. 15, 1940, with a gold medal for valor at the White House in Washington. Fendler, who at age 12 survived nine days alone on Maine’s tallest mountain in 1939 and later collaborated on a book about the ordeal, died Monday in Bangor, Maine. He was 90.

His family issued a statement Tuesday, saying his survival story “will stand forever as a testament to the mercy and miracles of God, faith in God, prayer and determination to never give up.”

Fendler never seemed to tire of recounting the tale to children.

“I tell every one of them they have

something inside them they don’t know they have,” he said in 2011. “When it comes up to a bad situation, they’re going to find out how tough a person they are in the heart and the mind – it’s called the will to live.”

Fendler retired in Clarksville, Tennessee, but had a summer home in Newport, Maine, the town where his family,

from Rye, New York, was vacationing at Sebasticook Lake when he got lost.

Many feared the worst when Fendler became separated from the others on Katahdin, setting off a search by state troopers, National Guardsmen, paper mill workers, loggers and guides.

He later received a medal from President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the White House, was honored with a parade and featured in Life magazine.

Fendler’s twin, Ryan Fendler, said the trauma of spending so many nights lost in the woods didn’t lessen his brother’s affection for Maine. He and his brother celebrated their 90th birthdays together in August in Maine.

“He had a great heart and a great sense of humor,” Ryan Fendler said, describing his brother as a natural-born athlete who beat the rest of the party to the top of Katahdin before starting down on his own.

Ryan Cook, who’s working on a movie adaptation of “Lost on a Mountain in Maine,” was one of those who drew inspiration as a boy from hearing Fendler speak about the importance of grinding through obstacles.

“He always tried to put a positive spin on things. It goes to speak as to why he made it through the woods. His attitude was there’s no point in wallowing in things, you’ve got to push forward,” Cook said.

A private funeral will be held in Clarksville, Tennessee. There also will be public memorial in Maine.

A founder of the New Orleans girl group The Dixie Cups dies

By MARK KENNEDY The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Joan Marie Johnson, one of the founding members of the New Orleans girl group The Dixie Cups, who had a No. 1 hit in 1964 with “Chapel of Love,” has died at a hospice in New Orleans. She was 72.

Johnson, who was only with the group for its first few years because she was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia, died of congestive heart failure Oct. 3, former bandmate Barbara Ann Hawkins said.

Their “Chapel of Love,” written by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich and Jeff Barry, supplanted the Beatles’ “Love Me Do” as the No. 1 song on both the pop and R&B charts.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame later included it in the 500 Songs that Shaped Rock & Roll. It turns out the trio ar-

ranged the vocals on the spot.

“When Ellie and Jeff first played ‘Chapel’ for us, we looked at each other, like, ‘You really want us to sing that like that?’ They said, ‘Well, how do you want to sing it?’ So I said, ‘Give us a minute.’ So we went in the corner and started singing. We walked back to them and when we sang it the way it was recorded, they were just, ‘Wow! That was awesome,’” Hawkins said.

The trio’s other hits include “People Say,” “You Should Have Seen the Way He Looked at Me” and their version of a traditional New Orleans song “Iko Iko.” Though they meet all the qualifications for entry in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, so far they have not been invited to join.

“We went through a lot because it was the early ’60s and we went through a lot as far as race and a whole lot of other

things. We had a manager who wasn’t really in our corner, but there were a lot of good times,” Hawkins said.

Johnson started the group as a teenager and asked Hawkins to join. Hawkins soon asked if her sister, Rosa Lee, could also join. When they were about to go to New York to set up music deals, Hawkins’ grandmother called over to the Johnson house to find out more about her and her family.

Soon the grandmother started laughing and the Hawkins sisters eventually realized that Johnson was their cousin. “I had never even met her,” Barbara Ann Hawkins said.

The trio would eventually be signed to Red Bird Records by the songwriting team of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller.

But the traveling and inconsistent meal times took their toll

STATE

Many fear Chicago schools deal won’t stick

By DON BABWIN and JASON KEYSER

Stacks of picket signs wait for Chicago Teachers Union members Monday outside the union’s strike headquarters in Chicago.

School and union negotiators reached a tentative agreement and averted a threatened strike.

The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Teachers in the nation’s third-largest school district pulled back from a threatened strike after a tentative last-minute contract agreement that Chicago officials acknowledged Tuesday might amount to a temporary fix and parents worried would fall apart.

“It wasn’t easy, as you all know,” Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis said after Monday’s latenight agreement, which now goes to the union’s House of Delegates and all 28,000 members for a final vote.

But even as Mayor Rahm Emanuel – who fought bitterly with Lewis before and during the 2012 teachers’ strike – praised the union and the Chicago Public Schools in a speech Tuesday in which he introduced his 2017 budget proposal, it still isn’t clear how the financially strapped city would pay for the four-year deal.

The proposal includes a 2 percent cost-of-living increase in the third year and 2.5 percent one in the fourth year.

It doesn’t require current teachers to pay more toward their pensions – a change that CPS had been seeking and the union rejected earlier this year – but future hires would have to pick up

Illinois woman killed stepping out of SUV on Indiana highway

RENSSELAER, Ind. – Police said a suburban Chicago woman died after she was struck by a semi when she pulled over on an Indiana interstate and stepped outside her SUV. Indiana State Police Master Trooper Dwayne Halliburton said 30-year-old Nika L. Trippi of Lombard died Monday morning on Interstate 65 in northwestern Indiana’s Jasper County. The trooper said Trippi pulled over on the highway’s outer shoulder to check on noise coming from her vehicle.

Halliburton said a passing semi struck her after she closed her

that additional pension cost.

A key provision is an agreement by the city to divert about $88 million from a $175 million surplus of the city’s at-times controversial special taxing districts – known as tax increment financing, or TIF, funds – to the schools.

That figure is less than the $200 million in additional spending the union had sought.

“Obviously, when you take that TIF surplus, that’s not a sustainable way of funding the schools,” said Alderman Pat Dowell, who represents South Side neighborhoods. “The money probably will not available next year, so the [union and the school district] are going to have to look for more permanent financing, which is probably at the

driver’s door.

Police were searching for the semi, which they said never stopped and continued south on Interstate 65.

Trippi was thrown under her vehicle and was pronounced dead at the scene. Trippi’s mother and two children were inside the parked vehicle when she was struck. They were not injured.

Illinois nursing home contests $50K fine after patient death

FRANKLIN GROVE – An Illinois nursing home is contesting a $50,000 fine for a mechanical lift failure and other violations that state investigators said contributed to a resident’s death.

The Telegraph reported that the Illinois Department of Public Health cited Franklin Grove Living and Rehabilitation Center for the lift problem as well as

state level.”

Alderman Patrick O’Connor agreed with Dowell, but said the city is in the same position it is in every year when it tries to secure state funding. Illinois is locked in a budget stalemate, meaning funds that are normally available have been slow to come or temporarily cut off.

“Every year, we rely on [the state] to give us a certain amount of money, and every year there is drama ... and we’re never quite sure whether it is going to come or not,” said O’Connor, who is Emanuel’s City Council floor leader and represents a West Side district.

a violation of the state Nursing Home Care Act. The center is cooperating with the state, but Administrator Jessica Rogers said the nursing home doesn’t agree with the findings.

According to a state report, the lift was used June 10 to transfer a patient from a wheelchair to a bed, and a support loop to the sling holding her left leg broke. She fell, breaking her legs, and a doctor said that contributed to her death four days later.

Rockford considers creation of public housing police unit

ROCKFORD – The city of Rockford is considering creating a specialized police unit to patrol its public housing properties in an effort to combat crime and create a stronger relationship with residents.

Police Chief Dan O’Shea said

would have been paid for with those funds, was a $60 million selective-enrollment high school to be named after President Barack Obama. Alderman Walter Burnett said he agreed to sacrifice it indefinitely; the proposed school and its name stirred controversy when Emanuel announced it in 2015 because of its location on the near North Side – far from where Obama built his political career on the South Side.

The tentative agreement also addresses class sizes in the nearly 400,000-student district, assigning an assistant to any younger-grade classes with more than 32 students.

Parents and others who dropped off children Tuesday remembered the teachers’ strike of four years ago and worried that, somehow, the current agreement would fall through.

“I just think that this is a temporary fix, and I believe that the solution coming out is temporary,” said Keisha Smith, who was dropping off her 6-year-old granddaughter at Ronald E. McNair on the city’s West Side. “We have to remain mindful that this is something for now ... like a Band-Aid and the issue is not resolved.”

Had there been a strike, Emanuel would have had to face residents who already are upset over major increases in property taxes and other fees.

Rockford Housing Authority CEO Ron Clewer approached him about creating the unit weeks after O’Shea was hired in April.

O’Shea told the Rockford Register Star the proposed POLICE unit is about building community relationships while also protecting those who are living in the housing. He said much of the crime in public housing isn’t caused by residents.

Officials said the housing authority would pay the full cost of operations, including equipment, pension, benefits and payroll. Aldermen were expected Tuesday to hear details of the estimated $900,000 annual agreement.

Suburban Chicago school district seeking $130 million

PALATINE – For a suburban Chicago school district, the presidential contest isn’t the

only issue voters will have to address in November.

Palatine School District 15 will seek voters’ permission to borrow $130 million to build two new schools – one of the costliest of such referendums on the ballot.

The Chicago Tribune reported that the request touches on a wide range of issues, including school boundaries to busing to minority integration.

Many of the district’s Hispanic students live in relatively high-density apartment complexes in pockets of Palatine and Rolling Meadows. Officials said one of the proposed new schools would be built in a Hispanic neighborhood in the northeast corner of Palatine.

Critics said the referendum involves too much change at once, but Superintendent Scott Thompson said the plan is a good one.

‘Unshackled,’ Trump unleashes aggressive attacks on own party

By STEVE PEOPLES, JONATHAN LEMIRE and JILL COLVIN The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – The “shackles” gone, Donald Trump stepped up his fierce attacks on his own party leaders Tuesday, promising to teach Republicans who oppose him a lesson and fight for the presidency “the way I want to.”

Exactly four weeks before Election Day and with his campaign foundering, the businessman reverted to the combative, divisive strategy that propelled him to victory in the GOP primary: Attack every critic – including fellow Republicans. Those close to Trump suggested it was “open season” on every detractor, regardless of party.

“It is so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to,” Trump said in a tweet that brought new concern – near panic, in some cases – to a party trying to stave off an all-out civil war before Nov. 8.

In another series of tweets, the Republican nominee called House Speaker Paul Ryan “weak and ineffective,” Sen. John McCain “very foul-mouthed” and “disloyal” Republicans “far more difficult than Crooked Hillary.”

“They come at you from all sides,” Trump declared. “They don’t know how to win – I will teach them!”

Rage against fellow Republicans from the face of the 2016 GOP exposed a party slipping from mere feuding into verbal warfare with advance voting already underway in roughly half the states. Polls suggest that Trump is headed toward a loss of historic proportions if he doesn’t turn things around.

His scorched-earth approach, days after his sexual predatory language caught on tape triggered a mass Republican defection, threatened

to alienate even more supporters.

“Fighting for the sake of fighting is not really very helpful,” former Trump adviser Barry Bennett said.

Trump has acknowledged the possibility of defeat in recent days, but on Tuesday he tried to shift the blame for his struggles on Republican defections and an election system that may be “rigged” against him. On Monday, he warned of potential voter fraud in heavily African-American Philadelphia, a claim for which there is no evidence but one that could challenge Americans’ faith in a fair democratic process.

At the same time, Trump’s campaign is considering whether to feature Bill Clinton accusers at his upcoming rallies. Trump shocked the political world before Sunday’s debate by appearing with several women who had accused the former president of sexual impropriety decades earlier.

The aggressive shift is in line with the philosophy of recently hired campaign chairman Steve Bannon, whose conservative website has long fueled attacks on Republican leaders and perpetuated popular conservative conspiracy theories. Bannon now is leading the campaign’s messaging.

The approach has done little to endear Trump to anxious party leaders. At least 40 Republican senators and congressmen have revoked their support for the embattled Republican nominee – with nearly 30 of them urging him to quit the race altogether.

Republican Speaker Ryan, in a Monday conference call with congressional Republicans, said he no longer would campaign with Trump. He said he would focus instead on ensuring Clinton doesn’t get a “blank check” with a Democratic-controlled Congress, all but conceding that Trump would lose the presidential contest.

If elected, will Clinton move to the right?

By KEN THOMAS

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Liberals say they’re watching.

Some Democratic activists say Hillary Clinton’s private speeches to Wall Street bankers and other moneyed interests in 2013 and 2014 confirm their long-held suspicions she will revert to more moderate positions – and choose like-minded members of her Cabinet and administration – if she’s elected president.

The speech revelations have been overshadowed by the past week’s firestorm over presidential rival Donald Trump’s vulgar comments about women. But Clinton’s comments will surely be an undercurrent in her transition and the start of her presidency if she wins the White House.

“Wall Street doesn’t pay a quarter of a million dollars for her to come and tell them how bad they are. What she said is pretty much exactly what we expected,” said Charles Chamberlain of Democracy for America, which unsuccessfully tried to draft Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren into the 2016 campaign and then backed Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

sonal email account was hacked by the WikiLeaks organization. But a summary of potentially troublesome comments flagged in a January 2016 email from Clinton’s campaign research director underscored concerns about how the speeches might be perceived

by Democratic primary voters.

Clinton spoke of a need for political

deal-making, telling real estate investors, “you need both a public and private position,” and told another group that both political parties should be “sensible, moderate, pragmatic.” Before Deutsche Bank, she said financial reform “really has to come from the industry itself.” On trade, she said she dreamed of a “hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders.”

In a 2013 discussion with Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein, Clinton said there was a bias in politics “against people who have led successful and/or complicated lives.” She also told Morgan Stanley that the findings of the Simpson-Bowles commission to cut the national debt, which called for raising the retirement age for Social Security, achieved the right framework. “You have to restrain spending, you have to have adequate revenues, and you have to have growth,” she said.

In a matchup against Trump, whose campaign has been rocked by his 11-year-old caught-on-tape comments about women, Sanders supporters have largely rallied behind Clinton as their best chance of championing progressive causes such as economic equality, debt-free college and climate change.

Margaret Mary Paddock of Hearthstone Manor, Woodstock, will be honored for her 100th birthday at a reception with family from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, October 16th at the Manor.

Mrs. Paddock was born October 17, 1916 in Fremont Township in Lake County, a daughter of Joseph and Margaret (Lenzen) Tekampe. She is the last surviving member and youngest of her family of two brothers and three sisters. There were two sets of twins in the family of which she was one with her twin brother Joseph.

When Margaret was 13 years of age her mother died of cancer. She took care of the household chores at a very early age. Her father taught her that “if you keep the corners clean you will have a clean house”.

A descendant of early settlers in the area, her grandfather Wilhelm Tekampe arrived from Germany in 1856 and settled in Fremont Township. The Tekampe family has more than 150 years of farming history in Lake County. Her 2nd great grandfather was Jacob Schmitt, one of the original German founders of Johnsburg in McHenry County in 1841.

She met her future husband, Ronald M. Paddock, at Dietz’s Stables in Ivanhoe and they were married on February 16, 1938 at St. Mary of the Annunciation Church in Fremont Center. The Paddock family from Vermont settled in Wauconda Township arriving in 1855.

Margaret and her husband began farming the Tekampe farm in Fremont until 1940. The Paddock’s moved to a farm in Wauconda Township now known today as the historic Andrew C. Cook House. This was Margaret’s favorite home. In 1947 they moved their farming operation to Darrell Road along the Lake and McHenry County borders, west of Volo near Lakemoor. When the two oldest sons decided to further their education, the Paddock’s retired from farming and settled in Wauconda in 1961.

Margaret is the mother four children: Roger Paddock of Hampshire; Kenneth Paddock of Woodstock and Vernon Paddock of McHenry. Her daughter Elaine Downing of Spring, Texas died in 2001. Ronald her husband passed away in 1987 at age 71. There are 7 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren.

GREENVILLE, N.C. – A state trooper shot and killed an armed man during a search for flood victims in a tense and dispirited North Carolina, and thousands more people were ordered to evacuate as high water from Hurricane Matthew pushed downstream Tuesday, two days after the storm blew out to sea.

Matthew’s death toll in the U.S. climbed to 33, more than half of them in North Carolina, in addition to the more than 500 feared dead in Haiti.

In Greenville, a city of 90,000, officials warned that the Tar River would overwhelm every bridge in the county by sundown, splitting it in half before the river crests late Wednesday. Evacuations were ordered there and in such communities as Goldsboro and Kinston, as rivers swelled to some of the highest levels ever recorded.

Tens of thousands of people, some of them as much as 125 miles inland, have been warned to move to higher ground since the hurricane drenched the state

trapped by the floodwaters killed a man who confronted officers with a gun Monday night, police said.

Authorities gave few details, but McCrory said the shooting happened in “very difficult circumstances,” adding: “Tension can be high when people are going through very, very emotional circumstances.”

In Lumberton, patience was wearing thin.

Ada Page, 74, spent two nights sleeping in a hard plastic folding chair at a shelter put together so hastily there were no cots and people had to walk outside in the back to use portable toilets.

She complained she didn’t even have her children’s telephone numbers with her.

“I left at home all my clothes, everything. The only thing I have is this child and what I was driving,” said Page, who was with the 8-year-old granddaughter she takes care of.

The full extent of the disaster in North Carolina was still unclear, but it appeared that thousands of homes were damaged. Many likened Matthew to Hurricane Floyd, which did $3 billion in damage and destroyed 7,000 homes in North Carolina as it skirted the state’s coast in 1999.

OUR VIEW: McHENRY COUNTY BOARD ENDORSEMENTS

District 3: Johnson, Christensen Four candidates are running to fill two McHenry County Board seats in District 3.

Republicans Chris Christensen and Michael Walkup face challenges from Democrats Diane Johnson and Kathleen Bergan Schmidt.

Christensen, of Cary, is vice president of a local insurance agency, an Army veteran and a member of the District 26 Board of Education. Walkup, of Crystal Lake, is an attorney, the lone incumbent in this race and a former member of the Crystal Lake Park District Board.

Johnson, of Crystal Lake, is an attorney and a family mediator specializing in divorce mediation, and a former president of the District 47 Board of Education. Bergan Schmidt, of Crystal Lake, is a retired educator and a former member of the County Board.

As newcomers to the County Board, Christensen and Johnson would bring fresh ideas, energy and perspective to county government. Both are successful professionals running as pro-business candidates.

District 3 covers all of Nunda Township and small portions of Algonquin and McHenry townships.

We endorse Christensen and Johnson.

District 4: Bates, Wilcox

Voters in McHenry County Board District 4 must choose between four newcomers to fill two vacant seats on the board. Neither Republican incumbent is on the ballot. Robert Martens Sr. is not seeking re-election, and Sue Draffkorn lost her re-election bid in the March primary.

On the ballot are Republicans Craig Wilcox and Kay Bates and Democrats Robert Rosenberg and Arne Waltmire. All are from McHenry.

District 4 covers most of McHenry Township, all of Richmond and Burton townships and all or most of McHenry, Richmond, Spring Grove, Johnsburg, Fox Lake, Ringwood, McCullom Lake, Wonder Lake and Bull Valley.

Wilcox served 24 years in the U.S. Air Force, retiring as a colonel, and holds three master’s degrees. Bates has been president of the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce since 2003.

Waltmire is a teacher with School District 155.

Rosenberg is a conservation land manager and holds an environmental law degree.

Bates and Wilcox are fiscal conservatives and pro-business candidates. Both have demonstrated success in their professional careers and would be reasoned voices on the County Board.

We endorse Bates and Wilcox.

ANOTHER VIEW

WikiLeaks reveals Clinton to be ... reasonable The Clinton campaign has refused to deny or confirm the authenticity of a WikiLeaks report including apparent purloined emailed excerpts of her paid speeches to corporate audiences in the years between her departure from the State Department in 2013 and her declaration for president in 2015. We hope the excerpts are genuine, because at least in the texts made public as of Monday, the Hillary Clinton that emerges is a knowledgeable, balanced political veteran with sound policy instincts and a mature sense of how to sustain a decent, stable democracy.

With a level of self-awareness unimaginable in her opponent, Clinton described herself in one speech as “kind of far removed” from the ordinary American’s struggles because of her newfound wealth and suggested she was making a conscious effort to compensate for that. In other talks, she said she “really admire[s]” even ideological opponents willing to run for office amid the toxicity of modern politics; she noted, correctly, that the optimal situation for the United States is “two sensible, moderate, pragmatic parties.”

She also favored the bipartisan Simpson-Bowles framework for deficit reduction, in which entitlement reform would be traded for progressive tax increases, and she offered an astute, historically informed discussion of the challenges of extending health-care coverage at an affordable cost.

Her comments are playing as an embarrassment for various reasons – some valid, others

not. She deserves criticism for withholding the speeches thus far, as well as for pursuing corporate speaking fees with unseemly abandon in the first place. And the speeches offer further proof her election-year disavowal of the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement is an opportunistic trim, not an expression of her views.

As for the shock-horror on both the Sandersian left and the Trumpian right about her reported aspiration for a “hemispheric common market” with “open trade and open borders,” however – it’s wrongheaded and hyped. Regional free trade is well advanced already, via existing agreements with Canada, Mexico and 10 other Latin American nations. And, in context, she’s clearly not advocating unregulated immigration.

Did she call on Wall Street types to “help us figure ... out” what went wrong in the Panic of 2008?

Yes. Did she promise to privilege their views or interests? No, and she even warned them it was in their own interest to face greater accountability, given public distrust of finance.

Clinton kept the speeches under wraps out of fear they would be distorted for political purposes by her populist foes. Alas, that fear was amply justified in this populistic, polarized environment, as the manufactured uproar over their release proves. The fact Clinton’s eminently reasonable and open-minded words regarding the issues are being treated as scandalous is the real scandal.

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.

VIEWS Scott Reeder all of whom were born during mom’s long fight with cancer.

Days before her death, they stood at their grandmother’s bedside and sang “Jesus Loves Me.” But what will they remember about their grandma?

For me, June 2, 2013, always will be a day of sadness.

As I thumbed through the channels Sunday, I watched professional football players wearing pink gloves and cleats. But I’ve yet to don a pink shirt, this year, in memory of my mother, Roberta Reeder.

To be honest, sometimes I think all of the October pink ribbons, shirts and merchandise trivialize just how pernicious breast cancer really is.

That said, I want my mother’s legacy to live on.

One good thing about Breast Cancer Awareness Month is it gets us thinking about what we can do.

Here are some thoughts: • If you’re a woman, schedule your next mammogram today.

• Give a cancer patient the most important thing that you can: you.

Cook a meal. Sit by a bedside. Comfort a family member.

• There are lots of charities that help folks with breast cancer. Please donate or volunteer. Your help is needed.

Folks from my hometown of Galesburg did all of those things for my family. It was most appreciated.

A cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming.

When Mom first received her terminal prognosis, the family was devastated.

Shortly after she was told the cancer was beyond cure, we had a birthday party for my eldest daughter.

Mom wept while she sang “Happy Birthday.” Dad’s voice cracked while saying grace.

My wife, Joan, thought of her mother, who died of breast cancer a few weeks before our wedding.

At times, during this long battle with cancer, I was at a loss to know what to say to my mom.

The only thing that seemed just right was, “I love you.”

The chemotherapy left her bald.

Sores developed on her feet. The cancer sapped her energy.

Nausea haunted her for years.

It was not an easy life. But it was one she endured without complaining.

Some folks call that courage. I call it character.

Despite her difficulties, mom always had a smile for her family.

When folks ask what I remember most, that’s it.

I love you, Mom.

IT’S YOUR WRITE Tell library board you’re watching

To the Editor: In a recent letter I advanced four reasons not to raise property taxes for a new $30 million Crystal Lake library.

One reason was this would increase the cost to the taxpayers to $10 for every book and DVD the library circulates.

Library Board Chairwoman Terri Reece responded. She didn’t dispute the number, but she said it’s an imperfect measure.

I agree it’s an imperfect measure – very useful, but imperfect. And it’s still $10.

Ms. Reece also completely failed to respond to my other points: 1) Library usage is in steep decline, down 24 percent in just three years.

2) The Crystal Lake library costs $400 a family versus $176 in Cary and $160 in Woodstock, and this tax increase would raise the cost per family to $530.

3) Almost 40 percent of the library’s circulation is the same DVDs RedBox rents for $1.50 – not $10.

Ms. Reece then threatened that if voters didn’t approve the bonds, the board would spend $9 million of the taxpayers’ money to “repair” the library. That’s $214 per square foot, twice what it costs to build brand new commercial space in Crystal Lake.

If the City Council permits the library

board to spend that much money on “repairs,” they have failed in their fiduciary duty to the taxpayers and should be voted out. Send a message to the City Council this November. Let them know you’re watching.

Support for new library

To the Editor: In response to John Dickson’s Oct. 2 letter, “Obvious alternatives to new library,” he certainly did not attend any of the focus meetings discussing the many factors that were taken into consideration on building a new library.

The building is old and falling apart. It is too small. It is a dinosaur compared with other libraries in communities of this size.

You focused on one thing, the book drop.

Yes, if all that was needed is a drive-up book drop, then other alternatives could be pursued, but that is just a small part of what is needed in our library. I’m voting yes to the new library. Yes, I am retired and on a fixed income, but it is worth every penny.

I want to see this community get the kind of library and resources it needs to keep up with the times.

And by the way, while I’m commenting, to those of you who commented the

Suggestions for state, county

To the Editor: The Springfield Democrats say they are for the working families, but after more than 40 years in power, they have managed to destroy the state. Nothing was done to protect the workers or elderly.

They protected themselves and the public sector unions. How about: 1. Raising the minimum wage, 2. Taking the school portion of the property taxes of those older than 65 off so they can stay in their homes,

3. A constitutional amendment that a property tax bill can never be more than 1 percent of the real value of the property as in other states. Your bill goes down when your property value does.

4. No pensions for elected offices and term limits. For public sector workers, go to 401ks and raise the retirement age to 66.

Our local Republicans have not done us any better as McHenry County has some of the highest property taxes in the country, and they are the party who touts “low taxes, keep more of your money.” Nice slogan until their hands are in the till. Combine districts and have them work with the budget we give them.

It is our money, as they all seem to forget, and we want to keep more of it.

My mother’s breathing was ragged.

I held her left hand with each labored gasp.

My dad, her husband of almost 59 years, gripped her right.

As she breathed slowly, shallowly, my dad cried out, “Save a place for me in heaven.”

Tears fell down the face of my sister, who sat at the foot of the bed.

We watched 79 years of life and an 11-year battle with breast cancer come to an end.

Our mother was gone.

The pictures on the bedroom wall spoke to what was important to mom: family.

Photos of each of her three children and their partners on their wedding days stood like sentinels overlooking her bed. The faces of her seven grandkids peered out from picture frames.

A devoted husband looked on adoringly.

Happy memories.

Cash is piling up faster than Warren Buffett can invest it

By JOSH FUNK

The Associated Press OMAHA, Neb. – Warren Buffett has the kind of money problem most people would envy: a growing mountain of cash.

Nearly $73 billion piled up at Berkshire Hathaway by mid-summer, more than Buffett’s conglomerate has ever held before.

And the total continues growing every day Buffett doesn’t make a major investment because Berkshire’s 90-odd businesses generate roughly $1.5 billion in cash every month.

Buffett’s options include buying entire businesses, picking up a few million shares of stock or investing more in companies Berkshire already owns, such as BNSF railroad and the utilities of Berkshire Hathaway energy.

So far, Buffett appears to be mostly sitting on the cash since January, when Berkshire completed its biggest acquisition in its history, a $32.36 billion deal for aviation parts maker Precision Castparts.

“I think he’s looking for the right price on something outstanding,” said investor Andy Kilpatrick, who wrote “Of Permanent Value: The Story of Warren Buffett.”

Of course, not all of Berkshire’s cash is available because Buffett wants to keep at least $20 billion on hand at all times just in case Berkshire’s insurance companies have to pay a big claim or some other need arises.

But Buffett said he’s always on the hunt for sizeable acquisitions that would fit well inside Berkshire, but he won’t pay more than he thinks a company is worth.

Buffett will only go after companies that fit his criteria for large, proven businesses he can understand

and that have an enduring competitive advantage.

“It’s hard to tell what he might be looking for,” said George Morgan, who teaches finance at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. “All we can do is wait and see.”

Buffett never discusses what he might buy beforehand, and he doesn’t talk much about all the deals he says no to.

But that doesn’t stop investors from guessing what Buffett might buy next. Morgan’s favorite idea is that Berkshire might buy Mars Candy if the family that controls that privately held firm ever wants to sell. Buffett has long used Snickers candy bars as the example when he explains the concept of a durable competitive advantage.

The fact that Mars now plans to buy out Berkshire’s $2.1 billion in preferred stock in its Wrigley gum unit may sour speculation about Buffett adding another candy maker alongside Berkshire’s See’s Candy, but the repurchase will add even more cash to Buffett’s pile for other investments.

Other investors speculate that Berkshire might continue expanding its utility unit. Over the past few years, Berkshire has spent $5.6 billion to buy Nevada utility NV Energy in 2013 and an additional $2.7 billion to buy Canadian power transmission provider AltaLink in 2014.

Buffett has said that Berkshire will likely team up again with the 3G Capital investment firm at some point. They already worked together to buy Kraft Foods and Heinz, but it’s not clear when the next deal involving 3G might come.

In the current interest rate environment, Berkshire is earning very little on its mountain of cash, but Buffett isn’t likely to feel much pressure from shareholders to make a quick acquisition or start paying a dividend for the first time since he took

Berkshire Hathaway Chairman and CEO Warren Buffett plays bridge May 3, 2015, outside the Borsheims jewelry store, a Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary, in Omaha, Neb. Buffett has a high-class problem: Cash is piling up at Berkshire Hathaway faster than he can invest it. over Berkshire in 1965.

After all, Buffett still controls nearly one-third of the voting power of Berkshire’s stock, and two years ago Berkshire shareholders overwhelmingly rejected the idea of a dividend.

And Berkshire shareholders don’t have to look back very far to see how valuable a pile of cash can be.

In the wake of the financial crisis of 2008, Buffett offered billions in financing to Goldman Sachs, General Electric, Harley-Davidson and others in return for steep interest payments and, in some cases, preferred stock.

BISMARCK, N.D. – Shailene Woodley’s arrest at a protest in North Dakota has been livestreamed to fans on Facebook.

The “Divergent” actress was livestreaming her protest Monday of the four-state Dakota Access pipeline for more than two-and-a-half hours Monday before her arrest by local authorities. Toward the end of the video, Woodley is told by a law enforcement officer that she is being arrested for criminal trespassing. The video showing what appeared to be a peaceful protest has been viewed more than 3 million times.

Morton County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Rob Keller said Woodley was one of 27 protesters arrested Monday.

Kim Kardashian West sues Ex-wife Mayte added to online media outlet for libel Prince tribute concert NEW YORK – Kim Kardashian West sued an online media outlet for libel Tuesday, saying she was wrongly portrayed as a liar and thief after she was attacked in Paris.

The lawsuit in Manhattan federal court seeks unspecified damages from MediaTakeOut.com. It said Kardashian West, traumatized by the Oct. 3 armed robbery, was victimized a second time when the website reported hours afterward that she faked the robbery and lied about the assault.

Police said armed robbers forced their way into a private residence where the reality TV star was staying, tied her up and stole $10 million worth of jewelry.

No arrests have been made.

‘Who’s on First’ routine can remain in play, court rules

Veteran singer Sir Rod Stewart (right) is made a Knights Batchelor by Britain’s William, the Duke of Cambridge, during an investiture ceremony Tuesday at Buckingham Palace in London.

Rod Stewart knighted by Prince William at Buckingham Palace LONDON – Sir Rod, you wear it well.

Rocker Rod Stewart donned tartan trousers – a nod to his Scottish heritage – and a scarlet-trimmed military-style tunic to be knighted by Prince William at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday.

The raspy-voiced singer of “Maggie May,” “Da Ya Think I’m Sexy” and “You Wear It Well” was honored “for services to music and charity.”

The 71-year-old star will be able to call himself Sir Roderick David Stewart.

Stewart said he and the prince “talked about music, and he said, ‘It’s great that you’re still going’ and I said: ‘I have to – I’ve got eight children!’

“He congratulated me on my long career, and I said how happy this made me,” Stewart said. “I just wish my mum and dad had been here to see it.”

Stewart was joined by wife, Penny Lancaster, and sons Alastair, 10, and Aiden, 5, for the investiture ceremony.

NEW YORK – Producers of a now-closed Broadway play can use Abbott and Costello’s famous “Who’s on First” routine over objections by the comedy duo’s heirs, an appeals court ruled Tuesday.

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan upheld a lower-court judge’s decision last December against heirs who had sued “Hand to God” producers.

That judge had ruled that the play’s use of the routine was so transformative that it constituted fair use of a copyrighted work.

The 2nd Circuit disagreed, saying that the play appeared not to have altered the routine at all. But it said the heirs could not win their claim because they could not prove they owned a valid copyright.

ST. PAUL, Minn. – Prince’s ex-wife Mayte Garcia has joined the lineup for this week’s tribute concert honoring the late “Purple Rain” megastar in St. Paul.

Other performers announced Tuesday include former Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger; Portuguese fado singer Ana Moura, whom Prince would feature in international performances; and Prince’s former bandmate Andre Cymone.

Stevie Wonder, Christina Aguilera, Chaka Khan, John Mayer and Tori Kelly are among performers already lined up for Thursday’s concert that is sanctioned by Prince’s family.

How a patient’s ‘crazy’ request made history

By MARIA CHENG

The Associated Press STOCKHOLM – When the young Australian cervical cancer patient learned she had to lose her womb in order to survive, she proposed something audacious to the doctor who was treating her: She asked if she could have a womb transplant, so she could one day carry her own baby.

This was nearly two decades ago, when the Swedish doctor Mats Brannstrom was training to be a physician abroad.

“I thought she was a bit crazy,” Brannstrom said.

But Brannstrom didn’t dismiss her idea. Instead, after he returned to Sweden he began a series of painstaking research projects to learn whether it might be possible to transplant a womb, despite Mats criticism that the unheard of procedure Brannstrom was dangerous, medically unnecessary Surgeon who and impossible. performed Brannstrom went on to become the first womb first doctor to deliver babies – five so far transplant – from women with donated wombs. No other doctor in the world has succeeded, despite attempts in the U.S., Saudi Arabia and Turkey, and ongoing efforts in China, Britain, France, the Czech Republic and elsewhere.

The first of Brannstrom’s patients’ babies was born in 2014 and the fifth arrived in January; another is due in early 2017.

Brannstrom is working with doctors at Harvard Medical School and the Mayo Clinic to help women beyond Sweden get access to the procedure. Doctors at Baylor University in Texas, including two former members of Brannstrom’s team, announced this week they performed four womb transplants. One was successful, but not yet ready to attempt a pregnancy.

And scientists, many of whom were both doubtful and critical before, now believe Brannstrom’s work could help them extend the use of organs for those who need transplants and learn how embryos implant in the uterus after conception, a poorly understood but critical stage in pregnancy.

To figure out if womb transplants even were feasible, Brannstrom first asked Rana Akouri, then one of his doctoral students, to start experimenting in rodents in 1999. He picked Akouri because of her delicate surgical skills – a mouse uterus is only less than an inch

Albin’s mother Emelie Eriksson (left) smiles Sept. 20 as she poses for a photo with her son and her mother, Marie (right), outside her home in Bergshamra, Sweden. Eriksson was the first woman to have a baby after receiving a womb transplant from her mother.

Woman says having baby with mom’s womb ‘like science fiction’ BERGSHAMRA, Sweden – Emelie Eriksson has a bond with her son that hardly seems possible: She and her son were born from the same womb.

Eriksson was the first woman to have a baby after receiving a uterus from her mother in a revolutionary operation that links three generations of their family.

“It’s like science fiction,” Eriksson, 30, told the Associated Press in an exclusive interview at her home just north of Stockholm. “This is something that you read in history books and now in the future when you read about this, it’s about me.”

Eriksson’s son Albin is now nearly

2. She agreed to share her story with the AP because she hopes other women who need help having a child will be encouraged and inspired by her family’s extraordinary womb transplantation experience.

“I hope this will be a reality for everyone that needs it,” she said.

Her operation was performed by Swedish doctor Mats Brannstrom.

Eriksson was 15 when she began wondering why she hadn’t gotten her period; a doctor discovered she had been born without a womb and explained that she never would be able to carry her own children.

“I thought this was something

long (about 2 centimeters). The surgery was so complex Akouri needed four custom-made tools to perform the microscopic operations.

After nearly two years, Akouri noticed one day the belly of one of her mice had a slight bulge.

Too impatient to wait, she performed a cesarean section that evening – and found two tiny babies inside.

“I called Mats at 10 p.m. and told him, ‘one of our mice is pregnant!’ ” she said.

That night, Brannstrom said, was the first time he thought a womb transplant in humans actually might be possible.

“If it hadn’t worked in mice, we would have quit,” he said.

Over the next decade, Brannstrom and his team performed hundreds of uterus transplants in rats, sheep, pigs and monkeys. Because Sweden forbids experiments in non-human primates, Brannstrom

that could only happen [far] in the future,” said Marie Eriksson, 53. “But then I said to Emelie, ‘I’m so old, I don’t need my womb and I don’t want any more children. This is your only chance to have a child, and you should take it.’ ” The first pregnancy test was negative. Eriksson was discouraged, but took another test a week later: that one was positive.

Eriksson was only convinced they had succeeded when she heard her newborn son scream in the delivery room. “I realized that everything had worked,” she said.

and 10 other doctors and nurses flew to Kenya nearly 20 times to perfect things like their surgical technique and the use of immune-suppressing drugs in baboons.

In 2012, it was time to try the surgery in humans. He obtained ethical permission to perform womb transplants in nine Swedish women. He then held an information session one evening in the southern city of Gothenburg, where the operations were to take place.

“We were quite frank in telling them, ‘This is not an infertility treatment, you’re participating in a scientific trial,’ ” he said. “We’re going into the unknown.”

Of the nine women who had the transplants, two had their wombs removed when complications arose.

Five women had healthy babies and the last two are trying to get pregnant.

and exercise, then see how many have heart attacks.

“This is a large enough sample size that we can put stock in the findings,” Jacobs said.

“We all need to find ways of modifying our emotional reactions and to avoid extreme anger,” such as distracting ourselves, walking away from the stressful situation, trying to see it from a different perspective, talking it out and getting support from other people, he said.

The study’s findings also are biologically plausible. Emotional stress and exertion can raise blood pressure and heart rate, change the flow of blood in the vessels and reduce the heart’s blood supply, said the study leader, Dr. Andrew Smyth of McMaster University. In an artery already clogged with plaque, a trigger could block blood flow and lead to a heart attack.

“From a practical perspective, there will be times when exposure to such extremes is unavoidable,” Smyth said.

“We continue to advise regular physical activity for all, including those who use exercise to relieve stress,” but people should not go beyond their usual routine at such times, he said.

If you’re angry or upset, you might want to simmer down before heading out for an intense run or gym workout.

A large, international study ties heavy exertion while stressed or mad to a tripled risk of having a heart attack within an hour.

Regular exercise is a healthy antidote to stress and can help prevent heart disease – the biggest problem is too many people get too little of it. But the new research suggests there may be better or worse times to exercise, and extremes can trigger harm.

“This study is further evidence of the connection between mind and body. When you’re angry, that’s not the time to go out and chop a stack of wood,” said Barry Jacobs, a psychologist at the Crozer-Keystone Health System in suburban Philadelphia and an American Heart Association volunteer.

He had no role in the study , led by the Population Health Research Institute at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. Results were published Monday in the Heart Association journal Circulation.

Being angry or upset doubled the risk of suffering heart attack symptoms within an hour; heavy physical exertion did the same. Having both at the same time more than tripled the risk for a heart attack.

The risk was greatest between 6 p.m. and midnight, and was independent of other factors such as smoking, high blood pressure or obesity.

Allergy shots effective for most Dear Dr. K: I’m plagued by seasonal allergies. Should I consider immunotherapy?

Dear Reader: Many people know all too well the misery of allergies – the sneezing, runny nose, postnasal drip, watery eyes and itchy throat. They try to fight back with allergy medications. But immunotherapy, also known as allergy shots, may be a better option.

I spoke to my colleague Dr. Paul Hesterberg, an instructor in medicine in the allergy and clinical immunology unit at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. He noted people often resist allergy shots because they fear injections and turn to them only as a last resort. But the shots can be an effective way to control symptoms that interfere with daily life.

They also can help reduce dependence on allergy drugs.

Allergy shots will not eliminate your allergy. They change your immune response to better tolerate it. Medication treats symptoms; allergy shots help prevent the symptoms from occurring in the first place.

The shots are given with a small needle, just under the skin – not deep into the muscle. Sometimes there is temporary tenderness and redness at the spot where the shot has been given. On very rare occasions, there is a serious reaction called anaphylaxis that can cause a drop in blood pressure and breathing problems.

A recent study of adults ages 65 to 75 found allergy shots reduced symptoms by 55 percent after three years of therapy. The study also showed the amount of medication this group needed to relieve symptoms dropped by 64 percent.

Shots are available for certain pollens, dust mites, mold, cat and dog hair and insect stings. There is no proof they work for food or drug allergies.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff Shots are done in two phases: buildup and maintenance. The buildup phase involves receiving increasing amounts of the allergen – the substance that causes the allergic reaction – once or twice a week.

This phase lasts three to six months.

The maintenance phase begins after reaching the full dosage. During this period, patients are injected on a monthly basis for up to three to five years.

As with any kind of treatment, allergy shots may not work for everyone, and they are not recommended for people with certain risk factors. These include some types of heart disease and severe, poorly controlled asthma.

If you are uneasy about injections, immunotherapy options that can be taken by mouth are available for certain allergies. They also are less likely to cause side effects than allergy shots and can be taken at home after your first dose in the doctor’s office. Oral immunotherapy is fairly new, and it still is not clear which therapy – injected or oral – is better.

The main question most of my patients ask when considering allergy immunotherapy is how much time it will take. As you can see from my description of what’s involved, it does involve many visits to the doctor’s office. Only you can trade off the amount of time it is going to take against the importance of reducing your allergy symptoms.

what your husband has been doing is considered emotional abuse. What you did was wrong, but you should not have to spend the rest of your life looking like a man if you don’t want to. To say your husband is controlling would be an understatement. Because you need more help than anyone can give you in a letter, I’m urging you to contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline. The website is thehotline.org; the toll-free phone number is 800-799-7233. Please don’t put this off.

Dear Abby: I am 64 and still a virgin. I now feel I haven’t done all the things I wanted to do with my life, and I realize I won’t live forever. When I see young kids having fun, I regret wasting my younger years.

The biggest issue I have is with being a virgin. I always have believed in true love, but I still haven’t met anyone. I have been going to bars and have multiple accounts on dating websites, but no men close to my age have been interested.

A young man who is 39 has asked to meet up. Should I go on a date with him and see what happens? I know it’s wrong, but I think maybe with a younger guy I could do all the things I wanted to do. What should I do?

Please help. – Prudence The Virgin Dear Prudence: Think carefully about what it is you really want. If you go on that date, the chances are that you will succeed in losing your virginity. But don’t count on anything more than that happening.

I’m unclear about what you mean by “doing all the things you wanted to do,” but true love takes time and commitment to develop, and rushing to catch up on all the things you think you have missed is no guarantee you will find it.

Dear Abby:

DEAR ABBY Four years ago, after three years Jeanne of marriage, I Phillips had a brief affair and was caught by my husband, who is a doctor. We had little girls, so he decided not to divorce me, but I had to cut my long hair short in a man’s style and stop wearing makeup or jewelry except for my wedding ring. He donated all my designer clothes and bought me men’s clothes.

I have begged him to let me wear women’s clothes again and allow me to wear even a short woman’s hairstyle, but he refuses.

Our two daughters are old enough now to notice, and they are a little embarrassed by how Mommy dresses. I no longer have any desire for an affair, but simply want to look attractive. I was a beauty queen in college, but now even my female friends think dressing like this is my idea. Sometimes I feel so embarrassed in public I want to hide. What do you suggest I try to get him to let me wear my hair long and women’s clothes again? – Wants

CARPENTERSVILLE – Jacobs already had wrapped up the Fox Valley Conference championship before Tuesday’s final conference game at DundeeCrown, but that didn’t mean the two teams felt as if there was nothing at stake.

The Golden Eagles wanted to complete a perfect conference season to sweeten their first outright Fox Valley Conference title since 2002. D-C, which could have been playing for a share of the title if not for a loss last week, wanted to put a blemish on Jacobs’ FVC record and needed to get back on track before heading into the postseason.

“We did not want them undefeated in conference,” Chargers forward Julian Ajroja said.

The Chargers came out with a sense of urgency, scored twice in the span of a minute early on and then held off Jacobs’ second-half push to win, 2-1, in an FVC game at D-C. “I thought it was important only because we’re heading into regionals, we need to get some momentum in the positive direction and that’s really all we talked about,” D-C coach Rey Vargas said. “Since that last loss, we just talked about the things we need to correct and do better and we have to play with energy, and I thought we did that today.”

The Chargers (10-8-1, 6-2 FVC) started well, and within 13 minutes they had the opening goal. A quick give-and-go between Ajroja and Jeremy Jareckyj sent Ajroja in on the goalkeeper and he finished easily.

“We were moving the ball like usual, we had a lot of good chemistry this game,” Ajroja said. “We just wanted it more overall.”

Not long after, the Chargers doubled their lead. Jareckyj put a cross into the box from the left wing and Edgar Castillo found himself unmarked for a header.

“It’s huge. We know we can play this way, and getting an early lead always brings a team down,” Vargas said. “It just put them under pressure. That was a huge win for us. There’s no doubt in my mind that we knew we could do this, but we’ve got to show up and play every game, every minute, we can’t just show up when we want.”

Jacobs (14-4-4, 7-1) almost got a goal back just minutes later when Noah Melick won a penalty, but Chargers goalkeeper Luis Cruz stopped Ryan Blanchard’s low attempt.

The visitors cut the deficit to 2-1 in the final seconds before halftime. Patrick Murphy played a corner in toward the near post where it deflected off a D-C

“I thought we responded, I thought that (the early goals) woke us up a bit, as odd as it sounds,” Jacobs coach Anthony Capello said. “I thought we were pretty poor prior to that, and I thought that was

a kind of nice little shock to get us going as odd as it sounds. ...

“Today we came out a bit flat. I thought D-C came out flying. They were ready to go. They were moving the ball real well that first 15 to 20 minutes, and they made it tough on us, and they punished us twice on two bad mistakes.

Credit to them. They did a good job exposing us on a couple of those mistakes.”

Melick came within inches of scoring in the first 15 seconds of the second half, and Jacobs continued to press for the next 40 minutes but never could break down the Chargers.

“I thought we did all right to create in the second half. I think we just lacked a bit of confidence maybe in that second half and taking our chances,” Capello said.

After the loss, Capello told his team to take it in and get ready for its final regular-season game before the playoffs.

“Remember this feeling, hold on to this, make it a nice somber bus ride home and remember this feeling,” Capello said of his post-game message. “Hold onto it because next week this time it’s going to hurt 10 times as much.”

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – The San Francisco 49ers are putting their future back into Colin Kaepernick’s hands.

Coach Chip Kelly announced the decision Tuesday to bench Blaine Gabbert and to give back the starting job that Kaepernick lost midway through last season. Kaepernick has played only briefly in the opener but has generated attention with his refusal to stand for the national anthem as a form of protest.

“We were very analytical and sat down as a staff and watched tape and went over everything,” Kelly said. “We’ve had a couple days to digest everything where we are. I think offensively, we just need to be better and we just need to make a move.”

Pens’ Crosby out with concussion

Sidney Crosby collided with a Pittsburgh Penguins teammate Friday at practice and thought nothing of it. Just one of those things.

When the two-time MVP woke up Saturday, however, the headache he experienced felt familiar and he was hardly surprised by the concussion diagnosis that will keep the Penguins captain out indefinitely.

It’s well-worn territory to be sure for a player who missed the better parts of two seasons after a blindside hit to the head in January 2011.

Game 3 Monday

Cubs closer Aroldis Chapman (second from left), catcher David Ross (third from left) and teammates celebrate Tuesday after Game 4 of their National League Division Series against the Giants in San Francisco. The Cubs won, 6-5, to win the series.

Just when you thought it was over ...

SAN FRANCISCO – These crazy Cubs. These crazy, intrepid Cubs.

Just when they had left themselves for dead Tuesday night, they stood up, shook off all the uninspired baseball of the previous eight innings and won a series that had looked in serious jeopardy.

No, really, they were goners in this game. Of that, there was no doubt.

Down, 5-2, heading into the ninth inning of Game 4 of a National League Division Series, they finally found the strut that had taken them to 103 regular-season victories. By the time they were done smacking around a parade of hollow-eyed Giants relievers, they had a 6-5 victory and an NLDS title in their possession. They will play the winner of the Dodgers-Nationals series, just as soon as they remember how to breathe again.

Kris Bryant started the ninth-inning

VIEWS Rick Morrissey rally with a leadoff single, followed by a walk by Anthony Rizzo, who had struggled in a big way in the series.

Then a double by Ben Zobrist to score a run and cut the lead to 5-3. And then came rookie Willson Contreras, hitting for Chris Coghlan. Two things happened: Contreras singled in two runs, and manager Joe Maddon looked like a genius for bringing in a pinch hitter.

After a throwing error on what looked like a sure double play that allowed Jason Heyward to reach second base, Javy Baez singled in the winning run. If there were an MVP award for an NLDS, it would go to Baez, who was phenomenal in the field, saving the day again and again with diving stops.

Four runs in the ninth inning? No problem.

“I think the game of baseball is a game that is 27 outs,” Baez said. “We can’t give up because we’re down.

We’re fighting and fighting.”

And so, after closer Aroldis Chapman shut down the Giants in the bottom of the ninth, making up for his Game 3 failure, the Cubs celebrated on the field, donning NLDS championship caps and posing for photos.

Hundreds of Cubs fans gathered near the first-base dugout to cheer on their team. The players and staff repaired to the clubhouse, where they partied.

Goggles were donned and champagne was sprayed. President Theo Epstein hugged Contreras. It was Party No. 1 in what they hope will be a three-party postseason.

6 CUBS

Even for favorite, postseason never easy

By STEVE GREENBERG

sgreenberg@suntimes.com SAN FRANCISCO – The Cubs’ journey through the 2016 postseason was never going to be easy.

But that’s probably stating the obvious.

No one needs to be told about the North Siders’ World Series drought. And everyone knew it would require some serious heavy lifting for the Cubs to get past San Francisco – a team that never met an elimination game it didn’t like – in the divisional round.

Job 1 – killing the pests that just won’t die – is done. The Cubs’ furious, ferocious four-run rally for a 6-5 victory in Tuesday’s Game 4 saw to that.

But still, there’s the whole recent history of best teams in baseball falling flat in the playoffs. In 21 seasons since the league expanded its postseason format to include a divisional round, only four times has the team with the best regular-season record gone on to win it all.

If Cubs fans found themselves bracing for disappointment during the opening round against the Giants, they’re going to have to get used to the feeling. It’ll be back, and back again, because that’s just how this thing works. The championship odds weren’t in their favor – as they never are for any one team – entering the playoffs, and pros in Vegas probably would tell you they still aren’t.

Not because all Cubs teams are doomed to lose.

“Nobody (on the Cubs) really cares about a curse or a goal or anything else, you know what I mean?” pitcher Jon Lester said.

It’s just ridiculously hard to beat any one team in a playoff series, let alone a string of quality opponents.

“When you get to shorter series, the

The two games the Cubs and Giants played at AT&T Park – absolute classics – certainly exemplified that.

The other National League playoff

• MORRISSEY

Continued from page 5 “The guys we’re chanting, ‘We don’t quit, we don’t quit,’ ” Maddon said. “We don’t quit.”

The Cubs were so close to going back to Wrigley Field tied at 2. That familiar feeling of dread, the one that has been known to tug at the sleeve of Cubs-licensed mourning wear, had returned with a vengeance. It crept in quietly at first, but by the sixth inning, it had take over all things Cubs. You could feel it here, 2,100 miles away from Chicago.

And then came that ninth inning.

That wonderful ninth, when the Cubs showed the mettle that had been missing too often in this series. They need to carry it forward into the NL Champion-

series has, too. It’s fun to ponder the likelihood that Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw’s left arm is tired after he pitched on short rest in Tuesday’s Game 4. Also pretty nice, potentially, for the Cubs that Nationals ace Max Scherzer will pitch in Thursday’s Game 5.

Neither team would be able to pitch

its ace in Saturday’s Game 1 at Wrigley Field, which means not maximizing its go-to guy in the NLCS. Advantage, Cubs.

But does it really matter?

In the big picture, it doesn’t seem to. For the Cubs, a series against either NLCS foe will be a difficult journey in itself.

Giants pitcher Matt Moore in a two-run fourth inning, which isn’t much of a sin these days. Every time you look up in this series, a pitcher is getting a hit.

But Lackey was gone after four innings, having given up three runs and seven hits. Moore was excellent, going eight innings and giving up just two hits.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy went through five relievers in the ninth.

None of them was effective. None of them seemed to know what hit them.

How would they? It was a truck that no one had seen coming, as least the way this series had played out.

“That’s baseball,” Bochy said.

It is. It’s playoff baseball, a strange animal that didn’t look like it was necessarily a friend of the Cubs. A five-game series looked like a dangerous thing that might lend itself to the kind of fluki-

ness that could do in a more talented team. And the Cubs, dramatically, rose above that threat.

What looked like a dead certainty, a Game 5 showdown between the Cubs’ Jon Lester and the Giants’ dangerous Johnny Cueto now becomes some rest time for the Cubs. They might need it emotionally.

The Giants have been lauded for their resilience, and rightly so. They had gone 10-0 in elimination games heading into Game 4. But give the Cubs some love for their resilience. They weren’t playing anywhere close to their best baseball, and somehow they found it again, just in the nick of time.

BLACKHAWKS ANALYSIS

X-factors for Hawks in 2016-17

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com Had Brent Seabrook’s booming shot late in the third period of Game 7 gone in rather than hit both goal posts, it’s not hard to envision the Blackhawks making a fourth straight deep postseason run last spring.

Instead, they had their longest offseason since the 2012 lockout.

They’re rested, hungry and still loaded with high-end talent.

Jonathan But these X-factors will Toews determine just how good they can be, and just how far they can go:

ARE THE KIDS ALL RIGHT? Noteworthy: The Hawks will have

a whopping six rookies in the lineup Wednesday when they open the season against St. Louis. Ryan Hartman of West Dundee, Nick Schmaltz, Tyler Motte, Vinnie Hinostroza, Michal Kempny and Gustav Forsling bring speed and excitement to the ice, but growing pains are inevitable. The first couple of months could be a bit rocky as the new guys get settled,

Quoteworthy: “We’re going to make mistakes, but for the most part, we’ve got a ton of skill,” Jonathan Toews said. “These young guys are really going to contribute in that way, too. …

[But] for the most part, it still always comes down to our leaders and the guys who have been here for a while to play the right way and set the tone early in the season.”

with Richard Panik now seemingly entrenched on the top line. But the bottom six features four rookies, an enforcer (Jordin Tootoo) and a thirdline center (Marcus Kruger) who didn’t score a goal last season.

Quoteworthy: “Obviously, we want everybody to score,” Quenneville said.

“We look at [Kruger] as having that defensive reliability and predictability, but we’d definitely like to see some production.”

HEALTH CONCERNS Noteworthy: Duncan Keith’s surgi-

cally repaired knee kept him out of the World Cup, but he’s feeling good and will be on the ice tonight. And although Quenneville said he hopes his deeper defense can spread the minutes around better, there are no plans to have Keith sit out occasionalDEPTH CHARGE ly to keep him fresh. Defensively, the Noteworthy: The Hawks were such Hawks are in great shape. They have a one-line team last season that coach eight NHL-ready defensemen, and Joel Quenneville flirted with the idea three more – Erik Gustafsson, Viktor of breaking up Artemi Panarin and Svedberg and Ville Pokka – waiting in Patrick Kane during camp in search the wings in Rockford. But a thin forof scoring balance, before thinking ward group in the NHL is even thinbetter of it. Toews and Marian Hossa ner in the AHL.

such as Mark McNeill, Kyle Baun and Tanner Kero. Injuries are inevitable, and the Hawks are only equipped to handle them on the back end.

Quoteworthy: “There’s still depth,” Quenneville said of the forwards.

“There are a lot of guys that give us some depth, and make it competitive, so [we don’t] just give away ice time.”

KANE HE DO IT AGAIN? Noteworthy: Yes, the Hawks

need other guys to score. But it still wouldn’t hurt if Kane dominated the way he did last season, en route to 106 points and the Hart Trophy. Kane is capable of changing momentum and winning games almost singlehandedly – although having the similarly dynamic Panarin on his left side helps – and while Quenneville tinkers with the rest of the lineup and while the rookies get acclimated, it’s probably up to Kane to keep the Hawks afloat.

Quoteworthy: “I feel good,” Kane said. “Took a little more time away from the rink than I usually would, but did a lot of different things off the ice to get my body right, feeling well. … You never want to lose out in the first round, or have that long offseason, but when it actually happens, you’ve got to take advantage of it.”

Power-forward decision looms Wade doesn’t want to be involved

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com

AP file photo

The Bulls’ Taj Gibson shoots between the Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo (left) and Greg Monroe on Oct. 3 at the United Center. Gibson is in the competition to earn the starting role at power forward.

There was a time when Dwyane Wade wanted a say in personnel decisions, especially when it came to the group starting around him.

Lesson learned.

Now the 14-year veteran is all out of that end of the business.

So while Taj Gibson and Nikola Mirotic, and even Bobby Portis, are involved in a competition for the No. 4 spot in the starting lineup, Wade is willing to wait for a decision rather than offer his opinion.

“I’ve learned to stay out of it, stay out the way,” Wade said Tuesday. “When I was younger, I thought I had that pull to be able to do that. Then it starts getting a little tricky. You start getting in relationships with guys. You don’t want to get involved if a guy’s not playing or a guy is not there no more. So I totally took myself out of that situation.

“I just started being a player and letting the coaches decide who they want to play, and let the GM and president decide who they want to bring in. Business can take over and it becomes tough.

Don’t want to be in the middle of it.”

Fred Hoiberg doesn’t have that luxury. The second-year coach inevitably will have the loudest voice in who wins that job, and if it was based on just individual performance, it already would have been a tap-out situation.

Through the first three preseason games, Gibson was leading the Bulls in

scoring with 13.7 points a game on 71 percent shooting, as well as grabbing 6.7 rebounds a game.

Mirotic was averaging eight points a game on 35 percent shooting.

Fortunately for Mirotic, it’s not just based on individual numbers.

“We look at all the analytics, the fiveman lineups and that type of thing, and see who is fitting best with each other on the floor,” Hoiberg said. “And it’s not just with the four-spot and starting, who starts at that position, but it’s also which guards mix best with each other, who fits with the bigs?”

What Hoiberg made clear is that this competition could go down until the very end before a decision is announced.

“I think it will probably go all the way,” Hoiberg said. “All the way until, or at least the last week. After we play that last preseason game, I think we’ll have a pretty good idea about who we want to start out there. So yeah, we’ll continue to experiment the rest of this preseason and see how it goes.”

The Bulls won’t take the court for a preseason game until Friday, as they host the Cavs, and if Hoiberg stays with the rotation, it again will be Gibson’s turn to start.

What Mirotic has in his favor, however, is he gives the Bulls an outside threat from beyond the three-point line, and they could carry more weight no matter how well Gibson is playing.

Gibson and Mirotic will be free agents after the season, so minutes will be highly coveted by both players.

BULLS NOTES

Valentine, Snell likely to miss weekend games

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Denzel Valentine and Tony Snell are on the shelf with ankle sprains and likely will miss the backto-back preseason games against Cleveland and Milwaukee over the weekend.

Bull coach Fred Hoiberg made it sound as if Valentine was closer to a return than Snell was.

“We’ll see what happens this week-

end,” Hoiberg said on Tuesday. “We won’t rule [Valentine] out at this point, but it’s just continuing to make progress as it goes on.”

While Snell continued to play himself out of the rotation in the second half of last season, the loss of Valentine was a setback, especially with the second unit looking for a consistent point guard.

Jerian Grant, acquired from New York in the Derrick Rose trade, was

penciled in for that role but has struggled at times, while Spencer Dinwiddie is more of a wing player than a play-maker.

That leaves Valentine, who was getting reps in practice at the point before falling to the ankle injury in the first preseason game.

Hoiberg said the rest of the roster remains healthy, although Dwyane Wade was looking to sit out a game with the Bulls playing three in four

nights starting Friday.

“I won’t be playing all those,” Wade said. “I guarantee you that.”

No thanks: Wade made sure to stay far away from commenting on anything Donald Trump these days, especially the idea of what is and what isn’t “locker room talk.”

“I didn’t have a reaction,” Wade said. “I’ve seen other guys’ reaction.

But I didn’t feel I wanted to waste any time on a reaction.”

BETTING ODDS

NEW YORK KNICKS

Rose says he suspected ‘rape’ setup

By BRIAN MELLEY

The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES – The night after Derrick Rose and two of his friends had sex with his ex-girlfriend, he had a hunch she was going to claim they raped her, the former Bulls guard testified Tuesday.

Rose said he became suspicious of the woman when she texted later the same day of the alleged attack in August 2013 to say how inebriated she had been and to describe burns she claimed she got on her hands from a fire pit outside his Beverly Hills house. Rose, who joined the New York Knicks this season, said he believed she was sober and never witnessed any burns the night before.

“It looked like a setup,” Rose said. “It turned out to be what I thought.”

Rose was testifying for a second day in the $21.5 million lawsuit that claims he and his friends had sex without the woman’s consent when she was incapacitated from drinking and, possibly, drugs.

The woman claimed the three entered her apartment and had sex with her while she was blacked out after drinking tequila at Rose’s rental house earlier.

Rose said the woman was sober and

he assumed consent based on their past, a text message she sent out of the blue that morning saying he made her “horny” and her behavior throughout the day and night.

Rose testified he was raised by a single mother, who was his mentor and had taught him to respect women.

Attorneys for the woman showed video taken of Rose in June testifying at his deposition in which he said he didn’t understand the word “consent.”

When asked by his own lawyer, he said he was nervous at the deposition and he defined “consent” as both parties being in agreement. He said the woman had consented all the previous times they had sex over an 18- to 20-month period.

Although they had split up a couple of months before, he said he took her suggestive text the morning of Aug. 26 as offering consent.

“When she sent me texts like that 99 percent of the time it ended up in sex, so what do you expect?” he said.

The Associated Press is not naming the woman because it generally does not identify people who say they are victims of sexual assault.

Rose was expected to wrap up his testimony in the afternoon.

The trial is proceeding even as a

judge considers declaring a mistrial after criticizing the plaintiff’s lawyers as “unbelievably careless” in production of exhibits.

Rose’s lawyers asked U.S. District Court Judge Michael W. Fitzgerald to declare a mistrial because they had not been given three text messages important to their case until Friday, when Rose was on the witness stand.

Fitzgerald, who used the phrase “unbelievably careless” several times, said it was not a frivolous matter and he told the lawyers to prove the texts had been disclosed.

“You have been very careless with the exhibits,” Fitzgerald said. “I was not happy about it.”

The judge said that if there is a mistrial, it would push a new trial into the NBA regular season.

Rose testified that he has permission from Knicks president Phil Jackson to miss the next three preseason games until the trial is concluded.

The texts at issue were sent by the woman to Rose. The defense lawyers said they happened to be looking at exhibits handed to them in a binder Friday and noticed texts that hadn’t been disclosed before the trial.

The judge did not indicate when he would rule on the mistrial request.

Woods’ decision not to play stage fright?

ON THE FRINGE Doug Ferguson NAPA, Calif. – The Tiger comeback has become the Tiger tease.

And not just for golf fans.

It can’t be easy for Tiger Woods to feel healthy enough to play, only for the little voices in his head telling him to wait.

For all the speculation about what’s going on with Woods, only he knows why his game would be good enough to commit to the Safeway Open one day, and why three days later it was not. That wouldn’t seem to leave much time for what he said was “a lot of soul searching and honest reflection” before deciding to withdraw.

Woods said Sept. 7 he hoped to play this week in the Safeway Open at Silverado, along with the Turkish Airlines Open in early November and his Hero World Challenge the first week of December in the Bahamas. His progress after two back surgeries last year allowed him to make such plans, which looked more like a reality when he officially entered the Safeway Open on Friday.

He was gone before he was ever back.

The portable signs leading to Silverado flashed a warning to drivers to “expect delays” because of the golf tournament. Traffic isn’t likely to be an issue any longer. Wine tasting goes back to being the main event.

There was no shortage of apologies from Woods. He was fully aware of the ramifications. He said he had every intention of playing and wouldn’t have entered if he felt otherwise. “This isn’t what I wanted to happen,” he said.

It was the right decision because it was his decision.

Woods showed plenty of loyalty to the PGA Tour by also canceling in Turkey, which will attract a strong field as part of the final stretch of events in the Race to Dubai on the European Tour.

That leaves the Bahamas as his next comeback, subject to change.

Most disconcerting to Woods is that according to his statement, this had nothing to do with his health, and everything to do with his confidence.

It’s one thing to say his game is not ready. It’s another to say his game is vulnerable.

Vulnerable to what – scoring or scrutiny?

The 14 months since Woods last played have been filled with mixed messages. Woods has used defeatist terms such as “I’ve had a pretty good run” and saying anything else he accomplishes in golf “will be gravy.”

Tiger Woods watches a football game between Stanford and Washington State on Saturday in Stanford, Calif. Woods’ comeback to golf will have to wait at least two more months. Three days before he was to return at the Safeway Open, Woods said he wasn’t ready to return against PGA Tour competition. Woods also said Monday he was withdrawing from the Turkish Airlines Open next month.

Then again, he has never failed to express his desire to play again.

Jesper Parnevik, in an interview with Golf Digest in the November issue, said they have played nine holes at the Medalist Golf Club in Florida and “by the way, he’s been hitting a lot of balls, and he’s hitting it great.”

“On the range, at least, his trajectory and ball flight are like the Tiger we knew 15 years ago,” Parnevik said.

Hank Haney, his former swing coach, said Tuesday on SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio that a well-known tour pro watched Woods about a month ago in Florida and described every other chip or pitch as “a blade or a chunk.”

The mystery deepens.

Golfers say all the time that their expectations are higher than anything the fans can put on them. That espe-

cially rings true in this case. Does anyone really expect Woods to play anything like the Woods who toyed with competition for more than a decade? Probably not. But does Woods expect that?

The aura of Woods is not what it was and never will be again. That’s simply age. Woods is 40 and seems a lot older because of seven surgeries, including three on his back in the past 30 months. He has been gone from golf from 14 months and it feels much longer.

Johnny Miller, the NBC Sports analyst and host at Silverado, suggested Monday that Woods “has got to break the ice sometime.” Even with the attention Woods brings, the Safeway Open would have been a safe return. It’s the middle of football season and baseball

playoffs. More than anything, it would have been a start.

Now it feels like stage fright.

Woods does not want to return until he feels he can compete. He missed a full week of practice while being an assistant at the Ryder Cup two weeks ago, though that still doesn’t explain why he felt good enough to return to the PGA Tour on Friday and withdrew on Monday.

Woods says he wants to play. He says his body will allow him to play.

But he’s not playing. He’s waiting.

The scrutiny has never left him, and it never will. And until he plays again, his game always will feel vulnerable.

SPORTS BRIEF

NHL enhances concussion protocol from the NHL’s headquarters in New York.

The spotters are certified athletic trainers by hiring staff of spotters NEW YORK (AP) – The NHL is adding a staff of spotters to better help identify players who might have suffered a concussion and have them removed from games for evaluation. In an enhancement of its concussion protocol, the league announced the spotters will monitor all game broadcasts

who have hockey experience and educated in identifying signs of potential concussions.

They will have the authority to contact teams directly to have players removed during a game. The players will not be allowed to return until being cleared by the team’s medical staff.

12 BEARS

Former Bears TE Bennett rips Cutler, team

By PATRICK FINLEY

pfinley@suntimes.com

Already reeling from a 1-4 start and facing questions about injured quarterback Jay Cutler’s future with the team, coach John Fox and the Bears took on fire from an increasingly familiar source Tuesday: former tight end Martellus Bennett of the Patriots.

Bennett railed on Cutler and the Bears’ culture in a clip teased by ESPN’s “E:60,” which will air a segment about the tight end and his brother Michael on Wednesday.

“Some people that you want to be a leader are not the guy that’s the leader,” Bennett told ESPN about Cutler. “And everyone in the locker room knows that this is not the leader – but this is what you want the face of the team to look like.”

Bennett, whose Bears teams were 19-29 in his three seasons, had choice words for his former Bears teammates.

“We just had a bunch of [expletive] on the roster – that’s why we didn’t win games – and coaches liked the [expletive],” he said.

The interview was conducted during the summer. The ESPN The Magazine

Patriots tight end Martellus Bennett celebrates a touchdown catch against the Browns on Sunday in Cleveland. Bennett criticizes his former team, the Bears, and Jay Cutler in an episode of ESPN’s “E:60,” which airs Wednesday. story written from it was published in August, with Michael Bennett, the Seahawks’ star defensive end, calling Cutler the “worst quarterback in the NFL.” “I’d be open,” Martellus Bennett said in the story, “and he’d throw into double coverage.”

Cutler took the high road when told of the comments in August, saying that “I could say something clever and

smart, but I’ll just pass.”

Cutler hasn’t played this season since leaving Week 2 with a sprained right thumb ligament. Pressed Monday about whether he’ll get the job back from the efficient Brian Hoyer when healthy, Fox said the Bears “don’t have a plan” – because Cutler has yet to be cleared to play, anyway. Teammates have praised Hoyer’s leadership since taking over the starting job in Week 3.

The brewing controversy notwithstanding, frustration is growing after the team’s 1-4 start. In Sunday’s loss to the Colts, safeties Adrian Amos and Harold Jones-Quartey were filmed arguing after their blown coverage led to a Dwayne Allen touchdown. In Week 2, injured linebacker Pernell McPhee confronted Cutler on the sideline after a third-quarter interception that proved to be the quarterback’s last pass attempt before leaving with the injury.

Still, Bennett has little moral authority to lecture about locker room culture.

He’s on his fourth team in six years and was traded when Bears brass decided his on-field performance didn’t justify his attitude.

He clashed with two separate Bears regimes. Marc Trestman suspended

him from training camp in 2014 after he body slammed first-round pick Kyle Fuller. After his Pro Bowl season that year, he held out for a new contract that never came. His refusal to train at Halas Hall until threatened with a fine was not met well by new general manager Ryan Pace and Fox In March, the Patriots gave up a fourth-round pick for Bennett, who is in the final year of his contract, and the Bears’ sixth-rounder. He’s been wildly successful there: Bennett’s five touchdowns are most among tight ends and his 314 receiving yards rank third.

Bennett had an opportunity to address his Bears career in August when the Bears practiced in Foxborough, Mass., for three days before playing the Patriots. He ducked interviews with Chicago reporters all week, refusing to talk after practice and, after promising postgame availability, changing his mind.

Bennett had every opportunity to air his grievances with his former teammates face-to-face, but did not. He mingled with tight end Zach Miller, among others, after practice, and even spoke to Fox while the coach said hello to Bennett’s wife and young daughter.

ON THE COVER

I’m a fan of stocking my kitchen with healthy, nutrient-dense ingredients that can be used on the fly on those busy days when 5 p.m. sneaks up without notice.

Even if I pay a little more at the store for “healthy convenience food,” I’m still coming out ahead, financially and health-wise, if it keeps me from ordering takeout.

Frozen edamame, or soybeans, are a great example. Buy both shelled and unshelled versions and keep them in the freezer. The edamame in the pod are perfect to grab to stave off hungry kiddos while dinner is being prepared – a quick steam or microwave visit, plus a bit of garlic or spices, and a healthy nibble is ready. Edamame pods also are great for boosting the protein and fiber in lunchboxes, or as a perfectly-placed dinner party appetizer.

Shelled edamame also are a worthy purchase, even if they cost a bit more than other frozen beans, such as lima (which, by the way, are a reasonable substitute if you can’t find shelled edamame).

Toss a handful of frozen edamame into soup before serving, slip into taco fillings, blend up into hummus, or add

some straight to your pasta water in the last minute or two of cooking to bulk up dinner.

Half a cup of edamame adds 11 grams of protein and 9 grams of dietary fiber for about 120 calories, so you’ll feel fuller longer with those little beans in there.

Or, combine this freezer staple with fellow weeknight staple quinoa to make a power side dish whose leftovers easily can be taken to lunch as a main dish the next day. Cooking once and eating twice is the ultimate weekday time saver.

1 cup frozen shelled edamame, thawed 1 cup cooked quinoa 1/2 cup small grape tomatoes, halved 1/2 cup parsley, chopped 1/4 cup toasted almonds, roughly chopped 1/4 cup feta cheese crumbles Vinaigrette: 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped 1 small shallot, minced 1/4 teaspoons salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper Place the edamame, quinoa, tomatoes, parsley, almond and feta in a large salad bowl.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the mustard and lemon juice. Drizzle in the olive oil, whisking into an emulsion. Add the dill, shallot, salt and pepper and mix. Add 1 or 2 tablespoons of water if the dressing is too thick.

Pour the dressing on the salad and toss. Serve immediately, or chill.

SPIRAL

Vegetable stand-ins for carbs have hit the mainstream

By MAURA JUDKIS

The Washington Post

A spiralizer turns vegetables into strands that look like noodles. But the similarity ends there.

Photo by Goran Kosanovic for The Washington Post

In

the annals of the world’s biggest lies, somewhere in the vicinity of “I did not have sexual relations with that woman” and “I was totally against the war in Iraq,” ranks this whopper: “Zucchini noodle recipes will make you forget all about

pasta.”

No, when people twirl long green strings of zucchini on their forks, pasta probably will be on the minds of all but the strictest Paleo diet adherents. Of course we all want to eat more vegetables.

We apparently just don’t want our plates to look so ... vegetabley.

That’s why low-carb bloggers and eaters, including diabetics, have longbeen replicating their favorite starchy dishes with vegetable stand-ins.

Grated cauliflower resembles rice and also can be baked as a pizza crust. If you squint really hard, a slice of sweet potato can be toast.

And if you use a kitchen device called a spiralizer, you can twist zucchini and squash into fettuccine or linguine noodles. (Or you can use a spaghetti squash – it’s nature’s spiralizer!)

They have a cutesy name, zoodles – or in the United Kingdom, where zucchini are called courgettes, it’s courgetti. They’ve even received the ultimate stamp of celebrity approval: Khloe

Kardashian tweeted a recipe for zucchini noodle pad Thai, claiming it was “just as good as pasta.”

But without that comparison, it seems we’re less inclined to eat vegetables for vegetables’ sake, no matter how prettily we whittle them down.

The war against carbohydrates is one of ascetic virtues, and it cannot be won without replacing our most decadent culinary pleasures.

This year, the category is booming: Searches for cauliflower rice recipes on Pinterest are up 135 percent year over year, and searches for spiralizer recipes are up 264 percent. Google search interest in cauliflower rice increases apace each year, except for the week of Dec. 25 through Jan. 1, when everyone is indulging in holiday treats.

(Immediately after, it spikes again: New Year’s resolutions.) Cookbook authors are hopping on the bandwagon, with books such as Martha Rose Shulman’s “Spiralize This!” and Denise Smart’s “Spiralize Now!,” because if anything’s worthy of an exclamation point, it’s tubular vegetables.

But because these food hacks can be a lot of work, grocery stores and home goods manufacturers are rushing to meet consumers’ needs for convenience and novelty – and they’re banking on the idea the low-carb crowd will pay for the privilege. Trader Joe’s frozen riced cauliflower is flying off the shelves. Wegmans, too, has a house version, and Green Giant is diving into the mar-

ket. And Whole Foods sells spiralized zucchini and squash and riced cauliflower in its produce section.

“If this gets people to eat more vegetables, and they’re willing to pay for the convenience, it’s a good idea,” said Michelle Tam, author of “Nom Nom Paleo.” At the same time, she admitted when she first heard about the mainstream Green Giant line jumping on the trend, “I was like, ‘Ugh.’ ” Even though we can make vegetables look like pasta or rice, though, that doesn’t mean we will prefer them over the high-carb version. There are issues of taste and texture: Homemade zucchini noodles can be watery. And then there’s what Tam politely refers to as cauliflower’s sulfurous smell.

People also might be turned off by bloggers who experiment with carb swaps to varying degrees of success. One blog recommends hollowing out a cucumber and filling it with lunchmeat and cheese to make a “sub.” Not only is it impractical – won’t the fillings squish out into your lap? – it is the saddest-looking sub you will ever see.

Vegetable pasta just takes some getting used to, Tam said. And it’s a sneaky way to get more vegetables into your kids’ diets, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Celeriac Pasta With Chickpeas and Marinara Sauce

Continued from page 3

Photo by Goran Kosanovic for The Washington Post

“I think it does take time to recalibrate your taste buds to appreciate real whole foods for how they should taste, because you’ve been eating such highly processed and hyper-palatable stuff for so long,” she said. “I know a lot of people who are like, ‘This in no way replicates my pasta Bolognese.’ And I’m like, ‘Of course not. But you’ll feel better.’ “ There’s another hurdle zoodles will have to overcome on their quest to become mainstream. There’s evidence that when we replace an unhealthful food with a more nutritious imitation, our brains expect the same level of caloric satisfaction. When we don’t get it, a recent story in the Atlantic reported, we’re likely to eat more of it than we would have eaten of the original version. Or we just prepare it in an unhealthful way – a fact that has not escaped Sklar.

“People say, ‘I’m going to eat better, I’m going to get the better-for-you product,’ but when they are at the store, they get the indulgent product,” he said.

Cauliflower rice can be both. “They buy this product and they say, ‘I’m going to do something really good,’ but then they bring it home and say, ‘I’m going to make a pizza out of it.’ ”

Celeriac Pasta With Chickpeas and Marinara Sauce 4 servings

Kosher salt 2 pounds celeriac (celery root), peeled 1 cup homemade or store-bought marinara sauce 1 tablespoon minced flat-leaf parsley or fresh basil 15 ounces cooked or canned, no-salt-added chickpeas (1½ cups; drained and rinsed if you’re using canned) 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Freshly shaved or grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, for serving Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add a generous pinch or two of salt.

Meanwhile, use the shredder (“noodle”) blade to spiralize the celeriac, gathering it in a mixing bowl as you work. Use kitchen scissors to cut very long strands into shorter lengths as needed.

Heat the marinara sauce in a large sauté pan over medium-low heat; once it’s warmed through, stir in the parsley or basil.

Add the celeriac noodles to the pot of boiling water; cook for 1½ minutes, then drain and immediately add to the sauté pan, along with the chickpeas and oil. Taste, and add salt as needed. Toss to coat evenly, then divide among individual wide, shallow bowls.

Top each portion with the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Serve right away.

saturated fat, 0 mg cholesterol, 510 mg sodium, 9 g dietary fiber, 9 g sugar.

Onion Fritters With Middle Eastern Spice Mix 4 to 6 servings

For the seasoning mix 2 tablespoons whole coriander seed 1 tablespoon whole cumin seed 1/2 cup roasted, unsalted peanuts, very finely chopped 1/4 cup roasted sesame seeds 2 teaspoons nigella seed Nutrition information per serving: 230 calories, 1 teaspoon ground sumac 1/2 teaspoon kosher or coarse sea salt 9 g protein, 37 g carbohydrates, 7 g fat, 1 g

For the fritters 1 pound red or yellow onions 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons cornstarch 7 tablespoons corn flour or finely ground cornmeal 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin 1 cup cold sparkling water 1/3 cup finely chopped cilantro Canola or grapeseed oil, for frying Coarse salt, for sprinkling (optional) For the seasoning mix: Toast the coriander and cumin seeds separately in a small, dry skillet over medium-low heat until fragrant, transferring them to a dedicated spice grinder

or mini food processor to cool.

Grind them, then add the peanuts, the sesame and nigella seeds, sumac and salt; pulse just until well incorporated. The yield is about 2/3 cup. You’ll need 3 tablespoons for this recipe; the rest can be refrigerated for up to 1 month.

For the fritters: Use the chipper (coarse shredder) blade or the “noodle” shredder blade to process the onions. Place them in a mixing bowl and cover with cold water. Let stand for 5 minutes, then drain, rinse and pat dry with paper towels.

Whisk together the cornstarch, the corn flour or cornmeal, salt and cumin in a separate bowl, then whisk in the sparkling water to form a smooth batter. Stir in the cilantro and the 3 tablespoons of seasoning mix.

Heat about 3 inches of the oil in a wok or deep saute pan over medium-high heat to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with several layers of paper towels, then seat a wire rack over them.

Take up a small clump of the onions (wind them together, if you like) and dip it into the batter, making sure to coat it thoroughly. Carefully transfer to the hot oil; fry for a minute or two, until golden brown, using tongs or another tool to turn over the fritter for even cooking.

Use a skimmer or slotted spoon to transfer the fritter to the rack. Season lightly with coarse salt, if you like.

Repeat to cook all the onions; discard any leftover batter. Serve right away.

Ingredients are too variable for a meaningful analysis.

Italian Squash Bake AP photo

Italian squash bake brings Mediterranean flair to dinner

By MELISSA D’ARABIAN The Associated Press

This week’s Italian squash bake is a true work horse. Want an easy, make-ahead weeknight side dish?

This will do the trick. Hosting both vegetarians and meat eaters for dinner? Serve Italian squash bake along with grilled chicken or fish on the side for the carnivores, and you’ll be all set.

Since the recipe is quite flexible, you easily can make as much or as little as you need. The colors of the vegetable slices are pretty, juxtaposed against one another, making this a company-worthy recipe with zero last-minute prep.

A quick note to parents: Once you’ve sliced up the veggies, let your little ones do the layering – it’s a great way to include them in the vegetable cookery of dinnertime. And you almost can’t mess this up, aside from the aesthetics.

My daughter, who loves to help me make this, even considers it a (lightened-up) version of lasagna. She’s actually not too far off. This Mediterranean-style squash bake is inspired by a tian, which is a Provençal dish named after the earthenware baking vessel traditionally used to make it. A tian typically is loaded with veggies, and then often is topped with lamb or salty pork.

My squash version gets its flavor from calorie-free herbs, lemon juice and garlic cloves instead, plus just enough satisfying fat from a light dusting of cheese added in the final stages of baking. Since squash only packs in about 10 calories in a half-cup serving (and surprisingly only about a gram of sugar), a little cheese is the perfect touch of comfort.

Bringing Mediterranean flair to your

weeknight cooking routine might be just the thing your autumn needs.

1 medium-large zucchini, sliced 1 medium-large yellow crookneck squash, sliced 2 large shallots, sliced 2 tomatoes, sliced (halve slices into halfmoons if too large) 5-10 garlic cloves 2 teaspoons dried Italian herb seasoning 1 tablespoon olive oil Juice of 1/2 lemon 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or Parmesan cheese, or mixed Salt and pepper Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch earthenware or regular baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Season the vegetables with a little salt and pepper.

Layer the squash, tomato and shallot slices “shingle style” in the dish, alternating vegetables. Don’t hesitate to pack the vegetables in fairly tightly; the slices should not lay completely flat.

Once the vegetables are all snuggly in the baking dish, sprinkle on the garlic cloves, and dried herbs. Drizzle on the olive oil and squeeze on the lemon juice. Cover with foil and bake for a half hour.

Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional half hour, sprinkling the cheese on top the last 15 minutes (for a total bake time of about an hour.) Serve warm or room temperature.

Braised cauliflower mixes up the flavor

By KATIE WORKMAN The Associated Press

Any time capers mingle with anchovies and garlic, I’m happy. You might think these are very strong flavors, but when they are used sparingly they add a lovely layer of salty/savory flavor to whatever dish they grace.

When I serve this to my family, do I mention there are anchovies in it?

Nope, I don’t. Do they think it’s delicious? Yup, they do.

The cauliflower is browned in the pan before it’s braised, and don’t cook it too long in the liquid or it will lose its great, firm texture. If you want a vegetarian version, skip the anchovies and use vegetable broth.

I was making this for the second time when I realized I didn’t have fresh parsley, so I grabbed a bag of baby arugula from the fridge and it was a happy amendment.

Braised Cauliflower with Anchovies and Capers AP photo

Braised Cauliflower with Anchovies and Capers Start to finish: 20 minutes Servings: 6 to 8

1 large head cauliflower 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon finely minced garlic 2 tablespoons capers, drained Coarse or kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 4 anchovies, rinsed and minced Splash dry white wine 1 cup less-sodium vegetable or chicken broth

1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley or 1 cup baby arugula leaves, roughly chopped (optional) Cut the cauliflower into small florets.

Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy stockpot over medium high heat. Add the cauliflower and cook, stirring occasionally until it starts to lightly brown in some spots.

Shove the cauliflower to one side and add the garlic, capers, and anchovies so that they hit the bottom of the pan, and season with

salt and pepper. Stir into the olive oil until the garlic turns golden and you can smell everything. Stir the mixture into the cauliflower, and season with salt and pepper, so the anchovy mixture coats the vegetables.

Pour in the wine and give everything a stir.

Add the broth and bring to a simmer. Cover the pan, and reduce the heat so the liquid remains at a simmer. Cook until the cauliflower is just tender but not mushy, from 8 to 10 minutes.

If there is more than ½ cup liquid left, remove

the cauliflower with a slotted spoon and simmer the remaining liquid until there is less than ½ cup, then pour it over the cauliflower.

Stir in or sprinkle over the parsley or arugula (if using). Serve hot or warm.

Tuna never tasted as good as in this Asian-inspired salad

By MELISSA D’ARABIAN The Associated Press

Canned tuna is underrated. Sure, we keep a can or two on hand for the occasional tuna salad sandwich, but most of us don’t stray far from the sandwich for this tasty and versatile protein.

Canned tuna can be used as a protein swap in many recipes (tuna tacos are amazing!), and it’s shelf-stable, inexpensive and chock-full of protein. One cup of drained canned tuna packs in about 40 grams of protein, so it’s a filling enough for either lunch or dinner.

Budget cooks take note: Tuna is easy to nab on sale for a buck or so a can, even for name brands, so load up when it’s on sale since it has an incredibly long shelf life.

Most tuna seems to be packed in water these days to save calories. But

I personally like the flavor better of oil-packed fish – it tastes more like fresh fish – so I usually keep a couple of oil-packed cans around for some recipes where I want a richer flavor, and I just drain the oil away.

Also, I always keep a can (or jar) of high-end tuna in my pantry – a quality tuna packed in good olive oil will turn your tuna dishes into restaurant quality, but you’ll definitely pay several dollars more. Your call.

Once you have a nice stock of canned tuna in the pantry, get creative. Consider almost any recipe where you use chicken or fish, and see if you can’t substitute tuna.

If you are worried about having taste flashbacks to your childhood of eating pink-spiky tuna-flecked mayo slathered between slices of white fluffy bread, my suggestion is to think about ethnic flavor profiles to redirect your tastebuds – Italian

(mix tuna into spicy tomato sauces), Thai, Chinese, and Mexican dishes made with canned tuna are some of my favorites.

Chopped Albacore Salad with Asian Dressing Start to finish: 15 minutes Servings: 4

4 cups chopped romaine lettuce 3/4 cup chopped green beans 3/4 cup chopped carrots 1/2 cup chopped red sweet pepper 1/4 cup quartered grape tomatoes 1/2 avocado, cubed 1/4 cup chopped almonds (or cashews) 2 scallions, chopped 3 5-ounce cans albacore tuna, drained 1/4 cup chopped cilantro For the dressing: 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger

1 garlic clove, finely minced (or 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic) 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce 2 tablespoons lime juice 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar 1/4 teaspoon sriracha, or other hot sauce (or more if desired) 1 teaspoon sesame oil 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil, or other neutral oil Place all the salad ingredients in a large bowl. In a small bowl, vigorously whisk together the dressing ingredients. Spoon about half of the dressing onto the salad and toss to coat. Taste, and add more dressing as desired. Serve immediately.

Mark Twain claimed, “A human being has a natural desire to have more of a good thing than he needs.”

That occurs at the bridge table when a player, usually the declarer, decides, for example, that he needs a suit to split favorably or a finesse to work, when in fact he can make his contract despite a bad break or a losing finesse.

What should South do in six hearts after West leads the spade nine?

When North raised hearts, South decided that slam could be anything from hopeless to laydown, and seeing no way to find out for sure, he went for the jackpot.

South starts with 11 top tricks: seven hearts, one diamond, two clubs and a club ruff on the board. So, naturally, he thought that he needed the diamond finesse. However, East’s bid had reduced the chance that that finesse would succeed. All of a sudden, he saw the winning line, which just assumed that West had led top of nothing.

Instead of making the natural play of covering the spade nine with dummy’s jack, South played a low spade and ruffed in his hand.

He drew trumps and eliminated the clubs (king, ace, ruff). Then he led the spade queen from the board, and when East covered with his ace, declarer discarded a diamond. What could East have done now?

If he led a club (conceding a ruffand-sluff) or a diamond (into the acequeen), South would have claimed.

When he tried exiting with a low spade, declarer pitched another diamond from his hand and won with dummy’s jack. Slam bid and made, naturally.
