No sharing selfies with marked daily California ballots, judge rules The TWEET

By SUDHIN THANAWALA and KRISTEN WYATT The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO – California voters heading to the polls should leave their selfie sticks at home.

A federal judge on Wednesday refused to lift the state’s ban in the current election on sharing photos of marked ballots. U.S. District Court Judge William Alsup said changing the rules so late in the election process would create confusion.

“It’s not fair to the voters in California, the people who run those polling places and the secretary of state to jam this down their throats at the last minute,” Alsup said. The ban applies to photos taken in polling booths and at home or elsewhere by people voting by mail.

The ruling came on the same day a federal judge in Colorado heard arguments on that state’s ballot selfie ban. A legal challenge also is pending in New York.

There are laws against voters sharing any photo of their ballot in 18 states, while six others bar photography in polling places but allow photos of mail-in ballots, according to a review

by The Associated Press.

11.03.16

Alsup said poll workers could be confused about whether people could use selfie sticks or take videos. He also raised concerns that photos that capture other people at the polling place might intimidate or disturb voters.

Ballot photo bans were enacted over 100 years ago as a way to prevent coercion, intimidation and vote buying, but they have raised First Amendment concerns in today’s era of social media and selfies.

The ACLU in a lawsuit filed on Monday said California’s ban violates voters’ right to freedom of speech by preventing them from expressing their political views. The group sought an injunction blocking the state from enforcing the ban in the Nov. 8 election.

Alsup said there were legitimate reasons to block people from sharing their marked ballots. He cited concerns about employers threatening to fire workers if they didn’t vote a particular way and demanding to see their ballots as proof.

Judges have struck down bans on the selfies in at least two states, and rules have changed in others. But in Colorado and many other states, sharing a picture of your ballot still carries potential fines or jail time.

“Bring it on!! Love this time of year. I will be getting some of our trees out this weekend!”

The Cary Village Board unanimously approved a rezoning request from Sage Products for a planned expansion on the 27 acres to the east of the current property. Sage’s purchase of the land was contingent on the zoning change from a shopping center business district to a business park district and the closure of Sage Parkway. That closure was approved in October.

McHenry County Cubs fans rejoice in World Series win

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Algonquin residents Ronnie Doll and Melissa Brightman said they were both nervous and excited leading up to Game 7 of the World Series.

“I do think they’re going to win it,” Brightman said. “We’ve got a good, young team this year, and they’re hungry for the victory.”

“It’s been too long, it’s time,” Doll said. “I really think they’re going to win.”

“This is just an absolute gift. I mean, to see them win like this, it was a crazy game, but words cannot describe how awesome this is.”

Even after a struggling third inning where Kyle Hendricks gave up the Indians first run and Javier Baez made his second error of the night, the “Go Michelle Gassensmith, Crystal Lake resident Cubs Go” chants continued.

“It’s been 108 years, and the Cubs need this,” Fox River Grove resident Doll and Brightman then thought Brightman, Doll and the rest of the Jesse Robles. “We’ve come this far, we about what were the keys to winning crowd at Buffalo Wild Wings in Algon- need this. An error like this, we can quin to erupt with the “Go Cubs Go” overcome anything.” this game.

Village Board OKs zoning change for Sage Products

Manufacturer planning 610,000-square-foot expansion

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com CARY – With the OK from the Cary Village Board on Tuesday night, Sage Projects can move forward with its planned expansion on the 27-acres to the east of its current property.

The board unanimously approved rezoning the vacant property from a shopping center business district to a business park district. Sage’s purchase of the land was contingent on the zoning change and the closure of Sage Parkway, which was approved in October.

While the project plans to add about 350 jobs by 2021 when the full expansion is built out, some residents in the surrounding neighborhoods have voiced concerns with how closing Sage Parkway and the addition would affect traffic, safety, noise, air quality and property values.

“I think if we would’ve had enough time to talk to people, they would understand there could be more modifications made at least, because this thing is way too big for Cary,” Cary resident Barbara Berthold said.

‘‘

Helping Paws Animal Shelter is collecting donations of gently worn or new shoes through Dec. 15. The shelter will earn money based on the number of pairs collected, as Funds2Orgs will buy all of the donated shoes.

Donations may be dropped off at the shelter, 2500 Harding Lane, Woodstock; Woodstock Veterinary Clinic, 691 Lake Ave., Woodstock; Uptown Salon, 116 N. Benton St., Woodstock; Nature’s Feed,

Mayor Mark Kownick said a petition submitted Tuesday afternoon included signatures from 23 Danbury Drive residents opposed to rezoning the property.

Others, such as Cary resident David Miller, noted the modifications Sage had made to its original plan by adding a private driveway for trucks leaving the property to the east and exiting on Georgetown Drive.

“There’s going be something on that property no matter what,” Miller said.

“Whether it’s going to be tall buildings or big buildings, but either way you’re going to have truck traffic. I think we have a good partner with Sage. … They’ve been a great supporter of the village.”

Sage President Scott Brown said he appreciated how the process for the expansion had been handled by the village.

“We’ve learned an incredible amount, and as you know, have tried to be a good neighbor for decades now,” Brown said.

“And it’s our intent to go forward and continue that relationship.”

The first phase of the project will include building a 200,000-square-foot warehouse and distribution expansion

with relocated shipping docks and added parking, according to plans presented by village staff. The new warehouse and current building, at 3909 Three Oaks Road, would be connected through a hallway.

Brown said the initial connection is necessary before the additional 610,000-square-foot expansion is built so goods can be transported between buildings. Sage Products creates medical products that help prevent infections and injuries in hospitals, according to its website.

“We’ll never make a decision that makes everybody happy,” Trustee David Chapman said before the ‘yes’ vote was made. “But what we have to do is try and find the best common ground that we can to make the town better for everybody.”

Village Administrator Chris Clark said construction is expected to start in the first half of 2017.

“At the end of it, the board made the decision to provide the approvals for one of the largest economic development projects in McHenry County in likely the last 15 years,” Clark said Wednesday. “It’s a big step for the Cary community.”

At the end of it, the [Cary Village] Board made the decision to provide the approvals for one of the largest economic development projects in McHenry County in likely the last 15 years. It’s a big step for the Cary community.”

2440 Westward Drive, Unit C, Spring Grove; or Bentley’s Pet Stuff, 5300 Route 14, Crystal Lake.

All donated shoes will be distributed throughout the Funds2Orgs network of microenterprise partners in developing nations. Funds2Orgs helps impoverished people start, maintain and grow businesses in countries such as Haiti, Honduras and other nations in Central America and Africa.

Support group for pregnant, parenting teens starting up

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Pregnant and parenting teens might feel as if they are alone in the world. However, Pioneer Center prevention coordinator Lisa Sabol said these teens need to know that there are people who can help.

“There’s a great outlet available for McHenry County teen parents where they can meet others in the same situation, feel safe and build relationships outside of home and school,” Sabol said.

On Nov. 15, the Teenage Mother’s Initiative will start holding its month-

ly support group meetings at Willow Creek Church, 220 Exchange Drive, Crystal Lake. The group will meet from 4 to 5 p.m. Tuesdays and will be led by prevention specialist Sarah Mathe.

About 10 years ago, the Pioneer Center launched TAMI to help pregnant and parenting teen moms and dads in McHenry County. Some of the services TAMI provides to pregnant and parenting teens include child care, housing assistance, parenting resources, help with school and assistance in preventing another pregnancy.

“These meetings also give people a great opportunity to discuss their problems with others,” Sabol said.

In addition to the weekly meetings, the support group offers home visits as a private way to provide personalized support to the challenges an individual might be facing.

As more incentive to participate, Sabol said, parenting teens who attend the meetings can earn “Tami Bucks,” which can be used to purchase diapers, wipes, bottles, clothes, toys and books.

“And these meetings are not just for teenagers, but for young adults too, as we invite people up to the age of 21 to attend,” Sabol said. “Also, despite the name, dads are welcome to attend as well.”

To register to attend a meeting, call Sabol at 815-344-1230, ext. 3149.

the Cubs up by three runs.

“Of course it was a sweet surprise, but this was what we’d expect from one of the most athletic young men in the MLB,” Robles said. “He’s so disciplined and hard on himself that this is something we’d expect from a future Hall of Famer.”

Buffalo Wild Wings was exploding with happy Cubs fans when the Cubs took a 5-1 lead. However, the building went quiet for the first time in the night when two runs scored off Cubs pitcher Jon Lester. Brightman and Doll, who started the Cubs game nervous, said they were even more nervous than before when the Indians made it 5-3.

“At first I thought it was a good decision to put Lester in, but then he got kind of shaky,” Brightman said.

Flash forward to bottom of the 8th, the

score is now 6-6. While the crowd seemed demoralized for a moment, Huntley resident Wayne Schuldz still seemed confident in the victory.

“It’s no problem,” Schuldz said.

“We’re going to get a couple more runs.”

The Cubs fans still had not lost hope as plenty stayed during the extra innings to cheer on their favorite team. And although the restaurant was loud all night, nothing matched when the Cubs recorded the final out.

“This is just an absolute gift,” Crystal Lake resident Michelle Gassensmith said. “I mean, to see them win like this, it was a crazy game, but words cannot describe how awesome this is.”

“I used to go to games as a kid even when we had no money,” Crystal Lake resident Angel Collins said. “My dad used to call them the bums, but the bums just won. Go Cubbies.”

More than a century of waiting is over.

Open house Nov. 16 set for prospective students, parents NORTHWEST HERALD

CRYSTAL LAKE – High school students and returning adult students can explore their career options and see what McHenry County College has to offer during MCC Night, an annual open house event, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Nov. 16.

All prospective adult students, as

well as high school juniors, seniors and their parents, are invited to attend the event, which will take place in the Commons area in Building B on the main campus.

Students can meet MCC instructors and explore more than 40 MCC programs, including registered nursing, occupational therapy assistant, physical therapy assistant, automotive technology, criminal justice, fire science, graphic design, digital media (including game design), robotics, manufacturing and engineering technology, horticulture, culinary, paralegal and health information technology. Information on MCC’s associate degrees

and certificates, financial aid and athletics also will be available.

Free workshops will feature financing a college education, how to apply for scholarships, college classes for high school students (dual credit), how to transfer college credits and services for students with disabilities. Other highlights include sweet treats made

by MCC baking and pastry students and pottery making, along with welding demos and giveaways.

“Students can walk around and talk to faculty about programs or classes they’re interested in taking,” said Kellie Carper, manager of new student transitions. “In today’s economy, stu-

dents and their parents should look at all their options. We have excellent programs and instructors and MCC students who transfer do just as well or better than students who start at fouryear universities as freshmen.”

MCC Night is free and open to the public. No registration is required.

During this event only, the application fee will be waived for all high school seniors and prospective adult students who apply to MCC for the summer and fall 2017 semesters.

The college is at 8900 Route 14 in Crystal Lake. For information, visit www.mchenry.edu/mccnight, or call Kellie Carper at 815-455-8670.

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com RICHMOND – The rich sounds of a historic musical genre will soon be taught in Richmond.

A group of musicians and blues lovers plan to start a nonprofit music education program in Richmond and will host a benefit Nov. 13 for their cause. Glenn Davis, William “Woody” Schilke, Albert Witt, Pat Heuer, Willy Cozart and Carly Caris are in the process of starting the program to provide education about the genre as well as hands-on instruction.

“The blues, it’s not just one thing,” Davis said. “It’s a multi-decade form of music that goes all the way back to the 1800s into what we have today. Very few musicians have a large perspective on all of that.”

The State Line Blues Preservation and Educational Foundation operates out of Red’s Steak and BBQ in Richmond, which Heuer owns. The group has turned the side room of the restaurant into a music venue and hosts live blues jams at 2 p.m. Sundays. Classes eventually will be offered at the location through the organization.

The program will be open to all experience levels, which is something in which Davis, a former Old Town School of Folk Music instructor, said he is well-versed. The classes will include musical instruction but also discuss the historical context of the genre.

A wide variety of skills also are learned when playing music with a group, such as dynamics, team-work and navigating nuances, he said.

A big part of the group’s goal is to reach kids and teens, Albert Witt said.

If you go ...

WHAT: Stateline Blues Preservation and Educational Foundation benefit fundraiser WHERE: Red’s Steak and BBQ, 1101 U.S. Route 12, Richmond WHEN: 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 13. Buffet offered from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Music from 2 to 6 p.m.

INFO: Call 262-716-1270 or email carlyc72@hotmail.com. Raffle item donations are still accepted.

“Slashes in the federal and state budget have wreaked havoc on our schools, especially to the music and arts,” Witt said. “We feel like what we are trying to develop here will fill an important niche.

“We’ve got a great opportunity to establish some education, history and love of music.”

The group plans to reach out to local school districts to bring the program to the classroom after it becomes more established and has obtained its nonprofit status. The fundraiser will include raffles, a live auction, local vendors, a buffet lunch and live blues music from the group members.

Music students have performed at Red’s before playing with a musician during the “Jazz with Jeff” event. Heuer said it was a hit.

“It was absolutely awesome,” he said. “We had so many proud parents sitting here, and to have those kids get an opportunity to get up and play in front of a live audience, I think it really changes their attitude in pursuing a musical career.”

Possession of less than 10 grams will cost first offenders $300-$500

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com

Text the keyword NWHCRYSTALLAKE to 74574 to sign up for CRYSTAL LAKE news text alerts from the Northwest Herald. Message and data rates apply. caught with less than 10 grams of marijuana is punishable with a ticket of between $300 and $500 for a first offense. It doubles to between $600 and $1,000 for a second offense, and between $1,200 and $2,000 for third and subsequent offenses. The fines are the same for paraphernalia possession.

The city has been without guidelines since late July, when Gov. Bruce Rauner signed a decriminalization law that turned what had been a misdemeanor offense into a civil law violation punishable with a ticket, and no related criminal record. City police have been under department orders since then to only confiscate marijuana and related paraphernalia and write up reports, but not make any arrests or write citations.

The law essentially created a new class of crime that required clarification from the Illinois Supreme Court regarding rules and procedures.

Under the old state law, possessing up to 2.5 grams was a Class C misdemeanor, possessing between 2.5 and 10 grams was a Class B misdemeanor and possessing paraphernalia was a Class A misdemeanor.

People who had small amounts of marijuana or paraphernalia confiscated by the police since July will not be retroactively ticketed.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Getting caught with a small amount of marijuana in city limits won’t get you a criminal record, but the fine could harsh your mellow.

The City Council voted, 5-1, to adopt a schedule of civil fines for possessing marijuana or related paraphernalia in the wake of an Illinois law that decriminalizes possession of less than 10 grams.

The fines start at $300 for a first offense.

The sole opposing vote came from council member Ralph Dawson, who said that the cost of a first offense was too steep for young people caught for a moment of youthful indiscretion. He mentioned the city’s $100 fine for underage drinking as a comparison.

“I think it’s a little high to start,” Dawson said.

But the board ultimately followed the lead of Mayor Aaron Shepley, who said that the fine is a small price to pay for not having a criminal record, and that it is not only the young who get caught with marijuana. He said the council should keep the fines where they are for now, and that they always can be revisited by the council.

“This is a substance that was, just recently, a crime to even possess, at any age,” Shepley said.

Under the new ordinance, being

Firefighters rescue disabled man from house fire NORTHWEST HERALD

HARVARD – A Harvard resident was rescued from a house fire Tuesday morning.

The Harvard Fire Protection District and the Harvard Police Department responded about 10 a.m. Tues-

Officers found a disabled resident in the house, unable to get out. The man

CL police write 25 extra tickets during Halloween crackdown NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – A crackdown on traffic offenses during the Halloween weekend netted 25 additional citations.

The city participated from Friday to Wednesday in the Illinois Department of Transportation’s Sustained Traffic Enforcement Program, which is aimed at curtailing driving under the influ-

ence and enforcing seat belt use.

Nine citations were for failing to wear a seat belt, and five each were for speeding and for using an electronic communications device while driving.

Four citations were given for driving without insurance, and two for other moving or equipment violations.

The program is funded by federal traffic funds disbursed by IDOT.

was in a motorized wheelchair and had become disoriented, Harvard Battalion Chief Daniel Czek said.

The man was removed from the house without injury and was treated and released by the protection district.

The fire started near the kitchen

and was accidental, started by a candle, Czek said. “[The house] is inhabitable,” he said. “There is a lot of smoke damage and that sort of thing, but no huge damage. I’m guessing it caused about $4,000 in damage.”

‘Next year’ finally arrives for joyous Cubs fans The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Next year is here.

At exactly 11:47 local time, the Cubs won the World Series that has eluded them for 108 years. Fans who packed bars to watch the games on TV near Wrigley Field – neither of which existed back in 1908 – erupted in cheers before swarming onto the streets just before midnight Wednesday to celebrate in the shadows of the statues of Cubs greats Ernie Banks, Billy Williams, Ron Santo and legendary announcer Harry Caray.

As the game ended, the roar from inside the bars and the throng of fans on the street was deafening, before the crowds both in- Mike side and out sang Delmanowski, “Go Cubs Go” at the lifelong Cubs fan top of their lungs.

“This was torture,” said Mike Delmanowski, a lifelong Cubs fan who flew to Chicago from California just to be surrounded by other Cubs fans. “I would not have missed it for anything.

Veterans take flight in vintage biplane The ASSOCIATED PRESS

WEST CHICAGO – Tears fill Dom Errichiello’s eyes when he thinks about what he witnessed during World War II. The 91-year-old was part of the third assault wave at Omaha Beach on D-Day, where he hid under a pile of his dead comrades’ bodies to save his own life.

At the Battle of the Bulge, he was among a group of nine soldiers captured by the Germans. When they planned an escape and simultaneously ran in different directions, he was one of only two survivors.

“I’ll never forget that,” he said. “I don’t remember all my kids’ birthdays, or my grandkids’, but I remember those days. It was gruesome.”

As an Army veteran, Errichiello never piloted a plane.

“Here’s my plane, right here, these two legs,” he said with a smile. “We walked thousands of miles from the beach, up and through Berlin.”

But last month, Errichiello and several other veterans who reside in the Windsor Park retirement community in Carol Stream had a chance to fly in the front seat of a two-person, 1941 blue and yellow Stearman biplane.

They got to take the free ride at the DuPage Airport thanks to the Neva-

Rauner, wife to downsize during mansion revamp

SPRINGFIELD – The house Gov. Bruce Rauner and his wife are planning to move into during renovations of the Illinois Executive Mansion is just a bit larger than the carriage house at the governor’s current home.

The Rauners plan to relocate to the Director’s House at the Illinois State Fairgrounds in January as an estimated $15 million mansion restoration project begins, The State Journal-Register reported.

Illinois Department of Agriculture specifications said the single-story, U-shaped Director’s House is 3,950 square feet with a walk-out basement. The Execu-

Since 2011, the group has taken veterans on nearly 2,000 short “dream flights” nationwide in planes that World War II aviators used in training.

Veterans from The Holmstad retirement community in Batavia also recently took dream flights at the airport.

“One of our favorite sayings is,

‘We’re only paid in satisfaction, but we’re overpaid,’” volunteer crew member David Freeze said. “We provide an opportunity for one more round of dreams, and it costs nothing. When this plane shows up, not a dime changes hands, and these flights would be very expensive otherwise.”

Some veterans are apprehensive when they first take a look at the plane and its open cockpit, Freeze said.

tive Mansion’s attached Carriage House is 3,848 square feet.

The fairgrounds residence has four bedrooms and two bathrooms. In contrast, the Executive Mansion is 45,120 square feet on three levels.

The Executive Mansion has been the governor’s residence since 1855, and the Director’s House was created in 1945.

Medical marijuana’s 1st year ends with 12K patients

SPRINGFIELD – Next week brings the anniversary of legal medical marijuana sales in Illinois, and the program is growing steadily. Patients with state approval to buy marijuana now number about 12,000.

The state released new monthly figures Wednesday. Retailers sold $4.1 million in marijuana products during October, marking another month of increasing sales.

Last month’s figures bring the total retail sales in Illinois to $28 million since purchasing began Nov. 9, 2015.

“But then when they get back, they see this huge change,” he said. “Their personality, it just shows. They’re suddenly 20 years younger. They have more energy. They can’t wait to get off the plane and tell other people about it.”

Ray Smith, 84, said he was excited to take the flight, but he looked a tad nervous as he was fastened into the seat by volunteer pilot Tim Newton, a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel who flew combat missions over Iraq and Bosnia. Smith is a post-Korean War Army veteran who worked in the Pentagon and served as the editor of a Fort McNair newspaper in Washington, D.C. The sun shined brightly in a cloudless, blue sky as Smith strapped on a canvas helmet and Newton fired up the engine, kicking the front propeller into a dizzying spin.

“Ready to go fly?” Newton asked.

Smith gave a thumbs-up.

When they landed 15 minutes later, Smith couldn’t stop smiling. He raved about the views from the low altitude, noted how cold it was up in the sky and talked about how special it was to share the moments with a combat veteran.

“We’ve very fortunate as veterans to have this kind of recognition,” he said.

The number of dispensaries continues to grow, too, with 46 now licensed to sell medical marijuana.

Chicago teachers approve contract with public schools

CHICAGO – The Chicago Teachers Union has approved a contract its leaders negotiated with the Chicago Public Schools.

The union announced late Tuesday that more than 70 percent of its more than 27,000 members voted to accept the tentative agreement.

Union President Karen Lewis said that with the vote, teachers now can focus their energies on their students.

In a statement, schools CEO Forrest Claypool said that families now know their children will remain in school and continue their academic gains.

The four-year proposal negotiated last month averted a strike that would have affected about 390,000 students.

Trump campaigning like it depends on Fla. The ASSOCIATED PRESS MIAMI – With the turbulent White House race scrambled in new directions, Donald Trump is campaigning like it all hinges on one all-too-familiar swing state: Florida.

There was late action Wednesday in such unlikely arenas as Arizona and Michigan, too – and in North Carolina, where President Barack Obama tried to energize black support for Hillary Clinton.

But Trump marched ahead in his third multiday visit to the Sunshine State in recent weeks.

The Republican nominee lashed out at “Crooked Hillary” in Miami, predicting that a Clinton victory would trigger an “unprecedented and protracted constitutional crisis” as federal investigators probe the former secretary of state’s email practices.

Conceding nothing in the state, Clinton also has been a frequent visitor. She posed for pictures and shook hands during a surprise visit to a South Florida Caribbean-American neighborhood Wednesday morning.

Both sides agree the New York businessman has virtually no chance to win the presidency without Florida’s trove of 29 electoral votes.

Clinton has been ahead there in opinion polls, but Democrats acknowledge that the FBI’s renewed attention to her has helped rally reluctant Republicans behind their nominee. That’s given Trump an enthusiasm boost in Florida and across Midwestern battlegrounds long considered reliably blue territory.

“I’m definitely nervous,” said former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, a Democrat.

“Democrats in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, if you heard it was over, if you thought those states were in the bag, don’t believe it.”

Perhaps heeding Rendell’s warning, Clinton’s team is de-

Former President Bill Clinton was making an unannounced appearance Wednesday night in Detroit to meet privately with black ministers, the city’s mayor and other local leaders. While Hillary Clinton had two appearances Wednesday in Republican-leaning Arizona, she planned to spend part of Friday in Detroit as well.

At the same time, a pro-Clinton super PAC was spending more than $1 million on Michigan airwaves along with at least $1 million more in Colorado, another state where Clinton has enjoyed a significant polling advantage for much of the fall.

Early voting numbers in some states suggest that her challenge stems, at least in part, from underwhelming support from African-American voters. Weak minority support could complicate her path in other states, too, including North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Michigan.

Early voting in North Carolina shows a 5 percentage point drop in ballots from black voters from 2012.

Obama, the nation’s first black president, offered an urgent message to North Carolina voters on Wednesday: “The fate of the Republic rests on your shoulders.”

He also criticized Trump’s history of sexist comments and his initial reluctance to disavow white supremacists.

They continue to rally behind the Republican nominee, although he rejects that support.

“If you accept the support of Klan sympathizers,” Obama said, “then you’ll tolerate that support when you’re in office.”

At the same time, Clinton allies are speaking directly to black voters in a new advertising campaign running in Ohio, North Carolina and Florida. The ad from the pro-Clinton Priorities USA shows white Trump supporters screaming at and pushing black protesters, along with Obama warning that voters would lose “everything” if Trump wins.

As the final-days scramble for votes intensifies, Florida remains perhaps the nation’s most critical swing state.

The Trump campaign knows there is no realistic path to the White House without Florida, where polls give Clinton a narrow lead.

Some cancer drugs may pose heart risks

Law enforcement officials investigate the scene of a shooting Wednesday in Urbandale, Iowa. Authorities apprehended a man Wednesday suspected in the early morning killings of two Des Moines-area police officers who were shot to death while sitting in their patrol cars in what authorities described as separate ambush-style attacks.

Suspect in officer deaths has history of provocations

By SCOTT McFETRIDGE The Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa – A white man with a history of racial provocations and confrontations with police ambushed and fatally shot two white officers Wednesday in separate attacks as they sat in their patrol cars, authorities said.

Police took 46-year-old Scott Michael Greene into custody hours after the killings and less than three weeks after he argued with officers who removed him from a high school football game where he had unfurled a Confederate flag near black spectators.

Greene flagged down an Iowa Department of Natural Resources employee in a rural area west of Des Moines, identified himself and asked that the employee call 911. Sheriff’s deputies and state patrol officers took him into custody.

He’s suspected in the early morning slayings of 24-year-old Justin Martin,

who had been with the force in the Des Moines suburb of Urbandale since 2015, and 38-year-old Sgt. Anthony Beminio, who joined the Des Moines department in 2005.

Greene was taken to a hospital for treatment of unknown health issues and was to be questioned later at Des Moines police headquarters, Sgt. Paul Parizek said.

Police responded to a report of shots fired shortly after 1 a.m. and found the Urbandale officer. Authorities from several agencies soon saturated the area. About 20 minutes later, they discovered the Des Moines officer, who had responded to the first shooting, Parizek said.

The shootings happened less than 2 miles apart, and both took place along main streets that cut through residential areas.

In the first shooting, investigators believe the gunman walked up to the officer’s car and fired more than two dozen rounds.

Doctors have found a disturbing downside to some powerful new drugs that harness the immune system to fight cancer: In rare cases, they may cause potentially fatal heart damage, especially when used together.

“The problem is, no one has this on their radar,” so patients are not routinely checked for it, said Dr. Javid Moslehi, head of a Vanderbilt University clinic specializing in heart risks from cancer therapies.

He led a report Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine describing two patients who died of heart trouble two weeks after receiving their first doses of two Bristol-Myers Squibb drugs, Opdivo and Yervoy, for the deadly skin cancer melanoma.

Two similar drugs also are on the market, and the study leaders believe they might pose heart risks, too.

“My sense is that this is a class effect, not limited to one drug,” Moslehi said.

The risks do not negate the huge benefits of these relatively new types of drugs, doctors stress. Called checkpoint inhibitors, they have transformed treatment of several types of cancer by helping the immune system see and attack tumors.

In rare cases, the immune system seems to attack not only the tumor but also the heart and other muscles, causing dangerous inflammation and heart rhythm problems. Patients need to be told of the risks, monitored closely and treated quickly with medicines to quell the immune response if trouble develops.

Besides melanoma, the Opdivo-Yervoy combination is used to treat some lung cancers, though at dif-

ferent doses. Other checkpoint inhibitors include Genentech’s Tecentriq, for bladder cancer, and Merck & Co.’s Keytruda, which former President Jimmy Carter received for melanoma that spread to his brain. Many more are in testing.

There have been occasional, previous reports of heart troubles with these drugs. After the two recent deaths, doctors asked Bristol-Myers to check patient safety records on Opdivo and Yervoy.

As of April, 18 cases of serious heart inflammation were found among 20,594 patients receiving either or both drugs, a rate of 0.09 percent. It was more severe and more common among people on both drugs, affecting 0.27 percent of those patients. Bristol-Myers scientists helped write the journal report, and some other authors consult for the company.

Studies have shown that the drug combination gives a stronger anti-cancer effect than either drug alone, but “we’ve known this is a double-edged sword” because of the risk of over-stimulating the immune system, said Dr. Jeffrey Sosman of Northwestern University in Chicago, who treated the two patients who died.

“The big question is, is there enough advantage to using the combination, which is much more toxic, than a single drug,” he said.

That’s a larger question facing the cancer field, not just with immune therapies. Some of the newer gene-targeting drugs also have produced major side effects when used in combination.

Yet many doctors believe that combos may be the best way to get cancer to go into remission and stay there longer, by shutting down multiple pathways the tumor employs at once.

Obama worries black vote not solid enough for Clinton The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – President Barack Obama twice generated a historic wave of African-American support on his way to the White House, but worries now the black vote “is not as solid as it needs to be” for Hillary Clinton.

Obama’s and Clinton’s travel schedules are taking them to swingstate metro areas with significant black populations, and the two officials are fixtures in black-audience media. Their message is consistent: Clinton will fight for the black community, while Republican Donald Trump would turn back the clock for voters that helped propel Obama to comfortable national victories. Former President Bill Clinton is pitching in, too, with an unannounced stop in Detroit on Wednesday night to meet privately with black ministers and boost his wife’s chances in battleground Michigan.

“I need everybody to understand that everything we’ve done is depen-

dent on me being able to pass the baton to somebody who believes in the same things I believe in,” Obama told nationally syndicated radio host Tom Joyner in an interview broadcast Wednesday.

Obama said early voting is up among Hispanics, but not among black voters. The president warned that Trump would obliterate Barack his record, even digging Obama up first lady Michelle Obama’s White House vegetable garden. “You think I’m joking?” Obama asked.

Hours later, he reminded an enthusiastic audience in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, that Republicans in the state tried to make it harder to vote with sweeping election law changes, only to have a federal court strike down the law because it “targeted black voters with surgical precision.”

So “it’s easier to vote than ever” in North Carolina, Obama said. “What’s our excuse?”

An Associated Press analysis of early voting data in North Carolina shows blacks have cast 111,000 fewer ballots than at this point four years ago, when Obama lost the state by about 92,000 votes. Clinton aides note that GOP officials there reduced early voting sites for the initial week of early voting, and they say they can make up the difference by Election Day now that more sites are opening.

Black voters’ share of early ballots request is also down a few percentage points in Florida and Ohio, although the Clinton campaign points to strong early turnout in key urban counties with large numbers of blacks and Hispanics.

To be clear, Clinton will win the black vote by overwhelming margins, just as Obama and a generation of Democratic presidential nominees before him. On her way to her party’s nomination, Clinton won more than 3 out of 4 black voters. And even with an apparent tightening of the general election in the final weeks, Clinton still has many more paths to the re-

quired Electoral College majority of 270 votes than does Trump.

Yet, problems could arise for Clinton if Trump draws a surge of white support. That would make her African-American margins and the overall black turnout especially critical in Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Then, it could matter whether black voters make up 15 percent of the Ohio electorate, as they did in 2012, or something closer to 9 percent, as they did in 2004, when Republican President George W. Bush won the state and a second term. Nationally, black voters cast about 13 percent of presidential ballots for Obama’s two victories, up from the 11 percent benchmark in previous decades.

Democrats are trying to leave nothing to chance.

Obama’s appearance in North Carolina followed an appearance Tuesday in Ohio. He has two Florida rallies Thursday, in Jacksonville and Miami, and he plans to return to the state Sunday, visiting Orlando on the final day of early voting in the state.

MOSUL, Iraq – Iraqi special forces mopping up in territory seized in eastern Mosul killed eight Islamic State militants Wednesday as residents fled to safety from nearby areas and men shaved the beards they were forced to grow while the extremists were in control.

In the easternmost district of Gogjali, shops were boarded up, with some reduced to burned-out shells. Families stood in their doorways, some holding white flags, while children flashed the “V’’ for victory sign to the passing troops. A few women yelled in celebration as columns of vehicles passed.

Consolidating the gains in the area lays the groundwork for the troops’ next stage of operation: entering Mosul’s more urban central neighborhoods, a densely built-up zone likely to contain booby traps and roadside bombs.

That could mean house-to-house combat and might take weeks, if not months, with the city center about 6 miles away.

The area’s deputy “emir” was sprawled on a central street, shot and killed by soldiers when he tried to approach them in an explosives-laden vest. Residents watched as the body,

cially after shaving for the first time in two years,” he said. “My face feels cold!”

The Islamic State group enforces a strict code on public dress and appearance in territory it controls, with men required to have long beards, and women ordered to wear a niqab – a face covering and full-body veil over their clothes, under threat of lashings and fines. Hundreds of civilians cleared out of the adjacent neighborhood of al-Samah, some carrying white flags. The women still wore the niqab, although many had removed their face veils and one took off the full-body covering entirely. The men retained their long beards.

Special forces went house to house in Gogjali throughout the day, while sappers searched the road for any explosives left behind by the jihadis. Only sporadic gunfire and artillery could be heard.

Gen. Abdul-Ghani al-Asadi, commander of the counterterrorism forces, said a curfew had been imposed in the neighborhood.

“We fear that Daesh militants could attack,” he said, using the Arabic acronym for IS. “So, for the safety of the families, we ask them to stay inside their houses,” he said, speaking in the town of Bartella, about 9 miles behind the front lines.

ANOTHER VIEW

Progressives overstepping Hillary Clinton’s election as president is hardly a sure thing. Nevertheless, progressives in the Democratic Party, feeling emboldened by the strong showing of Sen. Bernie Sanders in the primaries, are preparing their demands for a second Clinton administration. Following the old Washington adage that “personnel is policy,” unions, activists and think-tankers, under the auspices of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Massachusetts, and Sanders, are putting together lists of acceptable candidates for administration jobs – and a blacklist of unacceptable ones.

A certain amount of factional horse-trading over nominations is par for the course in politics; it’s especially so in a year when Clinton is reliant on support of the Warren-Sanders troops. We might add, though, that if Warren wanted to ensure her choices got picked, she could have run for president herself, as many urged her to do; Sanders did run, but failed to get more votes than Clinton, so his entitlement to determine administration staffing is debatable too.

The real problem, though, is not the fact of the lobbying but its nature: Clinton is being told, apparently, to apply a series of litmus tests to her potential nominees that include not only adherence to the Democratic Party platform, the drafting of which she largely (though not totally) ceded to Sanders, but also avoidance of any connection to the financial industry – notwithstanding whatever expertise it might confer. These conditions, or others unknown, may disqualify two able potential treasury secretaries, Sheryl Sandberg of Facebook and current Federal Reserve Board member Lael Brainard.

The advance veto on future nominees that Warren and Sanders are seeking, if carried to its logical extreme, would make them de facto usurpers of presidential power. The left’s model is its successful campaign against Obama’s choice of former investment banker Antonio Weiss as undersecretary of treasury for domestic finance in 2014. Under fire from Warren because of his role in the now-forgotten merger of Burger King and a Canadian company, Weiss withdrew early last year without a Senate hearing. In the end, this blackballing accomplished nothing practical: Weiss accepted a Treasury job that did not require Senate confirmation, and ably shepherded bipartisan legislation to restructure Puerto Rico’s finances. Meanwhile, the job for which he was originally tapped remains empty. Such end runs could take place in a Clinton administration, too, thwarting the left but at the risk of muddied lines of accountability in the bureaucracy.

People should be nominated based on their individual merits by the person with clear constitutional power to do the nominating. If elected, Clinton should declare from the outset that is how she will operate.

IT’S YOUR WRITE Broad base of knowledge

To the Editor: Voters in McHenry County District 2: There are many good things to say about Jim Roden. First of all, Roden has been business owner of a frame manufacturing operation and shop in Ridgefield for the past 35 years. As such, he sees the urgency to reduce taxes and to attract people to live in this great county.

Roden has a broad base of knowledge and practical experience that will be an asset for the County Board in making the hard decisions.

Jim Roden is a person who does not care for political labels and instead looks for what needs to be done.

I strongly recommend Jim Rodin for the County Board.

‘Yes’ for the library

To the Editor: Along with thousands of my

neighbors in Crystal Lake, I am voting “yes” for the library. We want to see our town move forward. The library is a key part of a good neighborhood and a vibrant community. A “no” vote is a negative approach and it fixes nothing.

It kicks the problem down the road and leaves it for someone else to solve. But there isn’t a “someone else.” It is us.

Please join me in voting “yes” so we won’t let the library fall into disrepair and become a community embarrassment. The current building’s problems have to be dealt with and now is the time. Be positive, take action, do your part and vote “yes” for a library that will benefit the entire community for generations.

Closet socialist

Editor: To the Editor: It took Bernie Sanders to unmask

Hillary Clinton as a closet socialist.

During and after the primary, she pledged to continue and build on President Obama’s socialist policies.

Hillary embraced socialism in 1969 when she wrote her master’s thesis on left-wing radical Saul Alinsky. Her views were fully exposed in 1992 when, as Bill Clinton’s health care czar, she created a single-payer program that was Obamacare on steroids. Fortunately, it was killed by Congress.

Throughout her campaign, Hillary has vowed to expand on President Obama’s policies: extending Obamacare; redistributing wealth; increasing the national debt; weakening the Second Amendment; expanding Common Core; removing God from schools; using class warfare to divide the people; and taking the Supreme Court far left.

So, thanks to Bernie, we know where Hillary will take this country.

On Nov. 8, we can stop her.

Vote ‘no’ on roads amendment

To the Editor: According to specific language in the roads amendment, “no moneys ... derived from ... license taxes relating to registration, title, or operation or use of vehicles” can be expended other than for transportation.

An unintended consequence of this language is that the thousands of Illinoisans that purchase specialty license plates such as the Sporting Series (for Ducks, Deer, Pheasants, etc.) that help support the Illinois Department of Natural Resources at an amount estimated to be $30 million a year may legally have to be diverted away from the intended benefactor and into the general transportation fund. This could be devastating to the DNR. Do we really need a constitutional amendment for every single expenditure made by the lawmakers, or should we be demanding that they instead pass a balanced budget?

Dave Holladay Crystal Lake

Leading the charge

To the Editor: I recently attended a forum on the cause of heroin usage in our county.

The forum was sponsored by Patrick Kenneally and the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office. As a 37-year police officer, I thought I had knowledge of the cause of this terrible epidemic, but after attending the forum, I gained new insights of the drug and what causes its use.

This is a very serious problem affecting all the people of this county, and Mr. Kenneally is leading the charge to have a medication known as Narcan provided to all police officers and first responders to help save lives. I look forward to working with Pat and his office as he has great experience in keeping McHenry County safe.

Please support Mr. Kenneally for state’s attorney on Nov. 8.

Make our Crystal Lake library great

To the Editor: We have much to be grateful for in Crystal Lake and should appreciate our forward thinking leaders, administrators and involved citizens who have made many amenities possible.

Three Oaks Recreation Center, our highly rated schools, attractive streetscapes, charming neighborhoods, the Raue Center and Lakeside Legacy Arts Park, our pristine lake, and our beautiful parks are all amenities that enrich our lifestyles.

Now we are being asked to support building a new library that will enhance our community experience.

The library board, staff and numerous committees have worked hard to reconfigure our library. Now we need to support them and all residents and vote “yes” for a more efficient, user-friendly library.

Both an embarrassment

To the Editor: I, as I assume most everyone, am tired of this campaign and all the rhetoric. In particular the constant repetition of Trump’s portrayal of a handicapped person.

This is starting to say more about the other side, who find it necessary to show this over and over and over

HOW TO SOUND OFF We welcome original letters on public issues. Letters must include the author’s full name, home address and day and evening telephone numbers.

We limit letters to 250 words and one published letter every 30 days. All letters are subject to editing for length and clarity at the sole discretion of

again. I can’t imagine how hurtful it must be to children and adults alike with disabilities having to watch this cruel exhibit of ignorance being repeated continuously.

The way I see it this is just another indication that the politicians have no concern for us or our best interests.

They fight to win for their own agenda no matter who gets hurt along the way.

Kudos to you, Northwest Herald, for not endorsing either candidate. They are both an embarrassment!

Jill A. Russell McHenry

Appalled by newspaper’s editorial standards

To the Editor: As a longtime reader of the Northwest Herald, I have been appalled by your editorial standards lately.

A recent letter to the editor claimed that Jack Franks is running for County Board chairman for personal gain, with no substantiation.

Franks is a successful attorney, small-business owner and member of one of McHenry County’s most prominent families, so this would be laughable if it weren’t so representative of the caustic rhetoric that has become the norm.

It is an especially shocking editorial failure when one considers that his opponent, Mr. Walkup, ran on the promise of not taking a public pension and violated that immediately upon being seated.

A commitment to representing all viewpoints is admirable, and yes, your paper did endorse Franks, but lies are not viewpoints and people count on this paper to help separate fact from demagoguery.

The Northwest Herald could be doing much better.

No ID required

To the Editor: So, according to your Oct. 16 article, McHenry County Clerk Mary McClellan claims “that the problems that plagued the March 15 primary will not resurface in the Nov. 8 election.”

I only hope she has not only provided remedial education for the election judges but also took that same remedial education and that they all now fully understand that Illinois does not require any ID to vote in person.

Put clearly and bluntly: “If you’ve voted in Illinois before, you don’t need to provide ID to vote in person.”

This means you are not to ask people for their driver’s licenses nor are you to have your election judges scan their driver’s licenses with your computers. I hope she understands this law now.

Depth of knowledge

To the Editor: I am so thrilled to see that Diane Johnson is running for McHenry County board.

I served as a school board member when Diane was president of District 47’s board.

I admired her depth of knowledge, organization and attention to detail.

She listened carefully to all sides, treated everyone with respect and sought solutions instead of taking sides.

Diane also was dedicated to providing a quality education for our students within our fiscal constraints. She worked hard for the children of District 47, and I’m sure she will work hard for the citizens of our county once elected to the McHenry County Board.

I’ll be voting for Diane Johnson.

To the Editor: What does the word “Republican” mean for the 2016 presidential election?

It means that if Hillary Clinton was running for president under the Republican banner, she could have had three marriages to trophy men (with an affair with the second breaking up the first, and an affair with the third breaking up the second).

She could have had four bankruptcies. She could have employed undocumented workers to build her grand hotels, casinos and golf courses.

She could have declared bankruptcy for her Atlantic City casino without losing a cent while leaving investors losing millions.

She could have slandered Mexicans, Muslims, blacks, the disabled and women without the effects sticking to her. She could have never held public office and she would still be the leader of the Republican Party, running for the highest office in our dear country with millions of Americans voting for her.

This is what hate creates.

BUSINESS Get out and vote, small business owners tell workers

By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Reports of long lines for early voting persuaded Darlene Hollywood – she’s giving her 13 employees at Hollywood Public Relations the morning of Election Day off.

“I don’t want people to feel they have to make a choice of, ‘I need to get to the office’ or ‘I can participate in my civic duty,’ ” said Hollywood, whose firm is based in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

Small business owners who want to make it easy for their staffers to vote are giving them flex time, balloting breaks, or, like Hollywood, opening late. Some, joining a list of companies of all sizes that includes giants such as General Motors and Ford, will be closed for the whole day. Owners said they want to encourage everyone to vote – some saying the intense emotions in the presidential race this year make it particularly significant and others that they feel it’s important to be involved in what happens in their country, state and city.

Many states have laws requiring employers to give workers time off to vote, and some of those states require that employees be paid if they have to vote during working hours. There is no federal law granting workers the right to voting time off. But many owners aren’t motivated strictly by the law.

On past Election Days, Brenda Jones Barwick saw employees hurrying to get their work done at the end of the day and hoping they’d still have time to vote.

“People were rushing out of here at 6:30 trying to get in line before the polls closed at 7,” said Barwick, owner of

Jones Public Relations in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, Oklahoma.

This year, she decided that neither her 20 staffers nor the company itself needs a chaotic day. So she won’t open the office until 10 a.m. on Election Day. Jones plans to email clients to let them know and hopes the idea spreads: “I’m encouraging other companies to do the same.”

After giving staffers time during the day to vote in past elections, Dan Golden decided this year to close his Chicago-based internet advertising firm, Be Found Online. He wants to be sure that none of his 50 employees has any excuse not to vote, including those who are sounding disaffected in this emotionally charged election year.

“I’m hoping to influence the number of employees who weren’t going to bother,” said Golden, the company’s president.

Golden, who wants other companies to give workers voting time off, is campaigning via a website, www.employersforvto.org. He’d also like to see Election Day made a national holiday.

“The best we can do is empower our employees to do what’s right and make it easier for them, so work isn’t an excuse,” he said.

Some bosses are letting employees decide when to take time off to vote, even if it’s in the middle of the day.

“Regardless of what you are doing, feel free to get up and go vote – it’s your right,” Chris Pontine told the two employees of his Fort Gratiot, Michigan-based company, Creating a Website Today. He calls his policy, which he’s had since he started his company in 2012, a simple approach.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2016

NEW YORK – Val Kilmer said Michael Douglas was “misinformed” when he suggested Kilmer has cancer.

In a Facebook post Tuesday evening, Kilmer said he has “no cancer whatsoever.” At a London event on Sunday, Douglas had said Kilmer was “dealing with” throat cancer, which Douglas was diagnosed with in 2010.

Kilmer said he spoke to Douglas nearly two years ago about recommending a specialist for a lump in his throat.

The 56-year-old Kilmer said he was treated at UCLA and still has a swollen tongue, but is “rehabbing steadily.”

The actor said he’s made three films in the past year.

Bill Murray gives random Sean Hannity sorry for fake Cubs fan World Series ticket story on Michelle Obama

Bill Cosby (right) arrives for a hearing Wednesday in his sexual assault case at the Montgomery County Courthouse in Norristown, Pa. Cosby is returning to court to hear if a judge will allow his damaging decade-old testimony from an accuser’s lawsuit to be used at his June criminal trial.

Cosby lawyers say comedian is too blind to defend himself NORRISTOWN, Pa. – Bill Cosby’s eyesight has deteriorated to the point where he cannot identify his accusers in photographs or otherwise help with his defense, his lawyers said Wednesday as they waged a multipronged effort to get the sexual assault case against the 79-year-old comedian thrown out.

His attorneys also portrayed Cosby as a political pawn who is being prosecuted only because a suburban Philadelphia district attorney used the public furor over the comic to get elected last year.

And they renewed their argument that Cosby’s lurid 2005 deposition from a related lawsuit should not be admitted at his trial, saying he answered questions under oath only after being assured he would not be charged with a crime.

Cosby leaned back in his chair as his lawyers made their case at the two-day pretrial hearing, which ended with no rulings from the judge and no indication of when he might issue one. Another set of hearings is scheduled for next month.

The “Cosby Show” star once known as America’s Dad is scheduled to go on trial by June on charges he drugged and molested Andrea Constand, a former Temple University employee, at his home in 2004. He could get 10 years in prison.

Cosby has said the encounter was consensual. He is free on $1 million bail.

Dozens of additional accusers have come forward, including 13 women whom prosecutors want to call as witnesses at the trial to show that they were drugged and violated in similar fashion. Cosby’s lawyers are fighting that strategy.

CLEVELAND – Bill Murray has come to the rescue of a fellow Chicago Cubs fan by providing a ticket to Game 6 of the World Series.

Karen Michel told MLB.com she was hoping there might be an extra ticket Tuesday at the Cleveland box office. After being told the game was sold out, she spotted Murray walking by and decided to follow him.

The Indiana woman said the actor turned around and offered her a ticket. She soon found herself sitting next to Murray in a section with other celebrity Cubs fans, like Pearl Jam lead singer Eddie Vedder.

Michel said she and Murray chatted about their experiences rooting for the Cubs, who haven’t won a World Series since 1908.

The Cubs ended up winning, 9-3, to force Wednesday’s deciding Game 7.

Johnny Depp joins sequel for ‘Fantastic Beasts’

NEW YORK – Sean Hannity has apologized for reading a fake news story on his radio show that claimed first lady Michelle Obama had scrubbed her Twitter account of mentions of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

The conservative radio talker and Fox News host also said one of his radio listeners called in to say President Barack Obama and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren did the same. On Twitter Tuesday, Hannity said, “Fact is they didn’t. I humbly apologize. Live radio.”

Hannity is one of Donald Trump’s biggest allies in the media and has acknowledged giving him campaign advice in private.

30 Healthy diet can prevent inflammation Note to readers: This column originally ran in October 2014.

Dear Dr. K: You’ve written chronic inflam-

mation has been linked to diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Is there anything I can do to fight inflammation without using medications?

Dear Reader: Inflammation in the body is a double-edged sword. Short-lived inflammation, directed by your immune system at invaders such as bacteria or viruses, protects your health.

But sometimes inflammation persists, even when there is no health threat. That’s when it can become your enemy. Many major diseases have been linked to chronic inflammation, including cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, depression and Alzheimer’s.

The good news is powerful tools to combat inflammation can be found in the grocery store. I spoke to my colleague Dr. Frank Hu, professor of nutrition and epidemiology in the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health. He explained components of many common foods have anti-inflammatory effects.

By choosing the right foods, you may be able to reduce your risk of illness. Consistently pick the wrong foods, however, and you might speed up the inflammatory disease process.

The same foods that contribute to inflammation generally are considered bad for our health, so it’s easier to remember them. They also contribute to weight gain, which is itself a risk factor for inflammation.

We used to think what fat did was provide a storehouse of energy for when we needed it, sort of like insulation that protected us against the cold. In the past 20 years, we’ve learned fat cells are little factories that make hormones and immune system chemicals.

These substances influence our appetite, our metabolism – and inflammation.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff To reduce inflammation, avoid or limit: • Refined carbohydrates, such as white bread and pastries; • Fried foods such as french fries; • Soda and other sugar-sweetened beverages; • Red meat (burgers, steaks); • Processed meat (hot dogs, cold cuts); • Margarine, shortening and lard.

On the flip side are foods and beverages that reduce the risk of inflammation and chronic disease. Fruits and vegetables are particularly effective. Good choices are blueberries, apples and leafy greens, which are high in natural antioxidants and polyphenols. These are protective compounds found in plants. Nuts and coffee also may be protective.

Include plenty of these anti-inflammatory foods in your diet: • Tomatoes • Olive oil • Green leafy vegetables, such as spinach, kale and collards • Nuts, such as almonds and walnuts • Fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, tuna and sardines • Fruits such as strawberries, blueberries, apples, cherries and oranges • Spices, particularly ginger and turmeric If you’re looking for a dietary plan that closely follows the tenets of anti-inflammatory eating, consider the Mediterranean diet.

This diet is high in fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, fish and healthy oils.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

HOW TO PLAY Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 boxes must contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition.

Dear Abby: I am dating a great guy I have known for 10 years. We dated on and off, but always remained friends. We were friends during my marriage, the birth of my daughter and my divorce.

We now are dating again. I would like things to work out because he is such a great friend and great person. My 9-year-old daughter adores him, too. The problem is, I’m still having a sexual relationship with my ex-husband. The sex is great and I don’t want to stop, but I’m afraid it will come back to haunt me.

I have been involved one way or another with both of these men since 2005. I’d like to just date the guy I am with, but our sex life isn’t nearly as good as it is with my ex. What should I do? – Divided In Pennsylvania Dear Divided: You might be divorced, but you are not free as long as you’re having sex with your ex. Be as good a friend to the “great guy” as he has been to you and let him go so he can find a lady who values what he has to offer.

Right now what you are doing is extremely unfair to him.

DEAR ABBY is here, and it’s the time we turn Jeanne our clocks back Phillips an hour from daylight saving time. Something everyone also needs to change could save their lives. That “something” is the battery inside household devices that many take for granted – smoke alarms, smoke detectors or carbon monoxide detectors.

In the U.S., three out of five home fire deaths are caused by fires in homes with no smoke alarms or working smoke alarms. As a firefighter, I have seen these tragedies firsthand. My mission is for no battery to go unchecked.

For the 29th consecutive year, Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs are partnering to educate the public about fire safety by reminding consumers of the importance of checking and changing the batteries not only in smoke alarms, but also every device that helps keep us safe and relaxed in our homes, such as smart thermostats, flashlights, home security systems and other critical devices.

I cannot stress enough the importance of setting aside the few minutes it takes to ensure these devices are working. The IAFC also recommends replacing smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors every 10 years. Use the end of daylight saving time as a reminder to prioritize the safety of your home. This simple task protects your home and the people you cherish the most. – Fire Chief John D. Sinclair, IAFC

CUBS WIN THE WORLD SERIES, 4-3

THE WAIT IS OVER

CLEVELAND – And on the 39,466th day, God smiled and said, “Oh, what the hell.”

After 108 seasons, after all those days of heartache, futility and what felt like godforsakenness, the Cubs got around to winning another World Series.

It took 10 innings, a blown three-run lead, a bad case of VIEWS managerial overRick Morrissey thinking, a short rain delay and a late Indians comeback before this thing was settled. Such an ordeal was necessary because these are the Cubs, and because every other form of torture had been brought to bear on them since 1908.

They beat the Indians, 8-7, in Game 7 of the World Series late Wednesday night. What a declarative sentence that is. The last great American sports story, the story of the team that couldn’t and seemingly never would, is gone for good now.

It was why, after it was all done, the Cubs were jumping around like kids near the pitcher’s mound at Progressive Field. And it’s why a city 345 miles to the west partied right along with them and quite likely out-partied them.

Everybody was a kid on this night, from those old enough to remember the last World Series appearance in 1945 to those recently born into a Cubs onesie.

Once united in pain, now united in sheer joy.

The game ended with third baseman Kris Bryant fielding a soft grounder

by Michael Martinez and whipping the ball to first baseman Anthony Rizzo, setting off a celebration the likes of which has never been seen before.

Gloves flew, tears flowed and players wrapped themselves in those W flags.

This was the ultimate W. With the game tied 6-6 in the 10th and after a short rain delay, Kyle Schwarber singled. He and his surgically repaired knee were replaced by Albert Almora Jr. After Bryant flied out, the Indians intentionally walked Rizzo. And up to the plate came Ben Zobrist, who will go down in Cubs lore. His double down the left-field line off Bryan Shaw scored Almora to give the Cubs a 7-6 lead. A Miguel Montero single added another run. That run would put 1908 back in

The Cubs weathered so many storms Wednesday night that it took a village of sports heroes. Take Mr. Ross.

It bounced two feet in front of the plate, hit Ross in the mask, stunning him, and skittered away. By the time Ross got the ball to Lester at the plate, both runners had scored. The lead was now 5-3.

The Cubs celebrate Thursday morning after Game 7 of the World Series against the Indians in Cleveland. The Cubs won, 8-7, in 10 innings to win the series, 4-3. brought to the Cubs by Theo Epstein, the baseball guru added another crown to his collection. He also assembled the Red Sox team that broke Boston’s 86-year drought with the 2004 championship.

From Curse of the Bambino to the Billy Goat Curse, he ended another jinx.

The Indians, meanwhile, added more heartbreak. In their previous World Series appearance, they were a double-play grounder from winning the title before losing Game 7 in 11 innings to the Marlins.

“It’s going to hurt. It hurts because we care, but they need to walk with their head held high because they left nothing on the field,” Francona said.

After defeating San Francisco and the Los Angeles Dodgers in the playoffs, the Cubs became the first team to earn a title by winning Games 6 and 7 on the road since the 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates.

While Cubs fans hugged with delight, there was only despair for the Indians, who now have gone longer than anyone without a crown.

Dexter Fowler homered on Corey Kluber’s fourth pitch of the game, 23-year-old Javier Baez and 39-year-old David Ross also went deep for the Cubs, who led 5-1 in the fifth inning and 6-3 in the eighth.

Chapman wound up with the win and Montgomery got one out for his first save in the majors.

Bryan Shaw, who gave up a leadoff single to Kyle Schwarber in the 10th, took the loss.

It was just the fourth time that a Game 7 went to extra innings, and the rain delayed play until 12:11 a.m. in a still-packed ballpark.

Albert Almora Jr., pinch-running for Schwarber, alertly took second on Bryant’s long fly to center. Rizzo was intentionally walked and Zobrist slapped an opposite-field double past a diving third baseman Jose Ramirez. Montero singled to make it a two-run lead.

Then in the bottom half, Carl Edwards Jr. struck out Mike Napoli, Ramirez grounded out, Brandon Guyer walked and Davis hit an RBI single.

Montgomery took over, and helped set off a wild celebration on Chicago’s North Side.

Cubs jumped on each other between the mound and second base, and their fans in the stands kept cheering.

Twenty-one other teams had won the World Series since Cubs last were champions. They reached the top again on the 39,466th day after Orval Overall’s three-hit shutout won the 1908 finale at Detroit in a game that took 1:24. At the time, Theodore Roosevelt was president, New Mexico, Arizona, Alaska and Hawaii were not yet states, and the first Ford Model T car was two weeks old.

CLEVELAND – The wait ’til next year is finally over. The Cubs are World Series champions.

Ending more than a century of flops, futility and frustration, the Cubs won their first title since 1908, outlasting the Cleveland Indians, 8-7 in 10 innings, of a Game 7 thriller early Thursday.

“It happened. It happened. Chicago, it happened,” first baseman Anthony Rizzo said. “We did it. We’re world champions. I tell ya, we’re world champions. I can’t believe it.”

Lovable losers for generations, the Cubs nearly let this one get away, too.

All-Star closer Aroldis Chapman blew a three-run lead with two outs in the eighth when Rajai Davis hit a tying homer.

But the Cubs, after tormenting their fans one more time, came right back after a 17-minute rain delay before the top of the 10th.

Ben Zobrist hit an RBI double and Miguel Montero singled home a run to make it 8-6. Davis delivered an RBI single with two outs in the bottom half, but Mike Montgomery closed it out at 12:47 a.m., and the celebration was on.

Blue-clad Cubs fans who traveled from Wrigley Field filled nearly the entire lower deck behind the Cubs dugout at Progressive Field, singing “Go! Cubs! Go!” Manager Joe Maddon’s team halted the longest title drought in baseball, becoming the first club to overcome a 3-1 Series deficit since the 1985 Kansas City Royals.

Cleveland was trying to win its first crown since 1948, but manager Terry Francona’s club lost the last two games at home.

World Series favorites since spring training, the Cubs led the majors with 103 wins this season.

The Cubs then ended more than a century of misery for their loyal fans – barely. Third baseman Kris Bryant, one of the Cubs’ young stars, began smiling even before fielding a grounder by Michael Martinez and throwing it across to Rizzo for the final out.

Zobrist was chosen as the World Series MVP, a year after he helped the Royals win the championship.

CUBS WIN THE WORLD SERIES, 4-3

Zobrist named MVP Big hit gives Cubs newcomer World Series MVP trophy

By WILL GRAVES

The Associated Press CLEVELAND – This is why Ben Zobrist came back home. And this is why manager Joe Maddon wanted him so badly.

The Cubs needed a veteran in the clubhouse to teach their seemingly endless supply of budding young stars, someone who’d been there.

Who’d done that. Who cared little about curses or droughts. Who knew what Maddon wanted and how to translate it.

Zobrist, fresh off a World Series title with the Kansas City Royals, was searching for a place to spend the final years of a consistently fine career. What better place to do it than a 2-hour drive from where he grew up in central Illinois?

And there he was Wednesday, standing in the batter’s box in the top of the 10th inning in Game 7, facing a two-strike count with the potential go-ahead run on second base. Then AP photo the 35-year-old switch-hitter did ABOVE: Cubs left fielder Ben Zobrist celebrates with the MVP trophy after Game 7 of the something that may have encapsuWorld Series against the Indians on Wednesday night in Cleveland. The Cubs won, 8-7, in 10 lated everything Maddon loves about him. innings to win the series, 4-3. BELOW: Zobrist hits an RBI double in the 10th inning.

Zobrist shortened his swing. He fouled off one pitch to stay alive.

The next provided the final blow in the Cubs’ season-long bout with the weight of their own history, a double inside third base that scored pinch-runner Albert Almora Jr. with the go-ahead run in an 8-7 win that gave the Cubs their first championship since 1908 and earned Zobrist the World Series MVP award.

Cleveland reliever Bryan Shaw intentionally walked Cubs slugger Anthony Rizzo to get to Zobrist, who entered the game hitting .391 in the Series but had gone hitless in four at-bats. Shaw quickly got ahead 1-2 before Zobrist – batting left-handed – poked a foul ball down the third base line past a diving Jose Ramirez. The next pitch was more of the same. In a situation where some of his teammates would have swung for the out-

er reaches of Progressive Field, Zobrist settled for making contact.

The normally understated Zobrist pointed toward the sky after his 10th and final hit of the series as the blue-clad fans who spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars to turn portions of the Indians’ home field into an eastern suburb of Wrigleyville roared once more.

“I know he threw a pretty hard cutter,” Zobrist said. “I just barely hung in there and fortunately he put one just close enough to the plate where I could slap it down the line.”

By the time Zobrist went to the dugout to fetch his glove and ran back out to his spot in left field, the lead was two. Barely 10 minutes later, Zobrist was sprinting to join the dogpile in the infield after Kris Bryant threw to good friend Anthony Rizzo at first for the final out, the second time in as many years Zobrist found himself awash in the joy.

Last fall he helped the Kansas City Royals beat the New York Mets in five Series games. When he went looking for a job, there was really only one place to go: Chicago.

“Ben is a winning baseball player,” Cubs President of Baseball Operations Theo Epstein said the day Zobrist signed a four-year, $56 million deal last December. “His offense, his defense, his baserunning. He’s been one of the more valuable players in the game for a long time.”

One who also came to Wrigley Field without an ego. Maddon moved the player he cultivated a close relationship with while the two were in Tampa Bay around like a kid with a new toy. Zobrist played primarily at second base but also spent time in left and right field. Always without complaint. Always with the greater goal in mind.

A goal that was realized after Cleveland’s Rajai Davis tied the score with a stunning two-run homer off Cubs closer Aroldis Chapman in the eighth. After the ninth inning ended, there was a 17-minute rain delay.

And then the Indians dared Zobrist to be the difference.

Just as he has whenever the Cubs called on him this season, he was.

CUBS WIN THE WORLD SERIES, 4-3

‘This is the Cubs’ moment, yearning quenched’ CLEVELAND – Oh, my, Chicago!

Oh, my Chicago!

Oh, my!

May we never again speak of black cats unless it’s Halloween.

May we never again speak of goats unless it’s about cheese. Or shot-andbeer joints.

May Steve Bartman come back – smiling, chatty, VIEWS undamaged Rick – and join Telander the living.

May the ghosts of so many players and fans of yore come out and dance with the giddy folks of here and now. This one is joy and release.

The Cubs almost killed us with a rain-delayed, 10-inning white-knuckler, an 8-7 victory in Game 7 of the World Series.

BUT IT HAPPENED! It’s hard to know how to feel beyond ecstatic about something that no one alive has ever seen happen before. Maybe ecstatic is enough.

With Dexter Fowler’s leadoff home run on the third pitch of the game, the bell was rung.

You could feel the purge coming, however jerkily: 108 years of blockage expelled like a potato out of a truck muffler. The longest championship drought for any continuously operating pro team in North America – nay, the world – was watered with first a bucket and then a deluge.

It was a nerve-racking way to get to this first title since 1908 – going down 3-1 before rallying for three in a row. And this last game, too, took years off our lives.

But, in truth, success was close to inevitable.

The Cubs are that talented, that versatile, that strong, that healthy, that focused, that well-managed.

(OK, you want to say the Cubs’ Joe Maddon gets crazy with his moves?

Sustained. Emphasized.)

Cubs’ brass went out and bought great pitchers, even renting bazooka-armed closer Aroldis Chapman for three months. And they have their own kids – Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant, Javy Baez, Addison Russell, Kyle Schwarber, Willson Contreras, Albert Almora Jr. – to carry on for years.

But next year? Screw next year!

The Cubs celebrate after Game 7 of the World Series Wednesday in Cleveland.

The Cubs won, 8-7, in 10 innings to win the series, 4-3.

For once. Forever.

I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again: The Indians had no business even making it to the World Series.

They are overachievers of the grandest sort.

They lost two of their top three pitchers – Danny Salazar and Carlos Carrasco – late in the season, and they’ve cobbled things together and scrapped ever since. They rode starter Corey Kluber like a mule in a wagon train, until he stepped off the cliff Wednesday night against a Cubs offense that is just too powerful.

Kluber and all the Indians – and especially good-guy manager Terry Francona – deserve much credit. We love you, Cleveland! You’re Midwestern, Great Lakes, true blue!

But, sorry.

This is the Cubs’ moment. Yearn-

ing quenched.

My God, we never (truly) thought this would happen. We joked about not seeing the Cubs win it all in our lifetimes. We said that with grins when we were young. We reached middle age, and we said it with blank faces. We grew old, and it curled off our lips like, yes, a curse.

But the peak of the mountain arrived. In our lifetimes.

There were fans in the stands dressed as Indians pitcher Ricky ‘‘Wild Thing’’ Vaughn from the movie ‘‘Major League,’’ thick glasses and all; and there was the real Vaughn actor himself in the house, Charlie Sheen. There was frenzied Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith ripping off his shirt to show his illustrated torso and lead cheers. Of course, LeBron James was there, too, rocking a ‘‘CLEVELAND

Wild-Card Game (Won 1, Lost 0) 2015: Beat Pittsburgh, 4-0

OR NOWHERE’’ T-shirt.

But the vibe was all Cubs.

It’s hard to say for sure because the Indians and Cubs have the same basic colors – red, white, blue – and the jerseys and T-shirts at Progressive Field looked like a huge American flag that had been run through a blender, but there might have been nearly as many Cubs fans in the house as Indians fans.

One fan who drove in for the game was Smashing Pumpkins rocker and Chicago native Billy Corgan. ‘‘All the way here, it was nothing but Cubs fans,’’ Corgan said in amazement. ‘‘It looked like a migration.’’

And now the migration can lead back home.

It’s green in the valley.

PREP FOOTBALL: CLASS 8A PLAYOFFS

Coaching, teaching worlds collide for Huntley’s Zimolzak

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com On Monday morning, Huntley football coach Matt Zimolzak walked into his physics classroom wearing Red Raiders gear. Zimolzak’s team advanced in the first round of the Class 8A state playoffs over the weekend and will play Fremd on Saturday in the second round.

Zimolzak didn’t hesitate to don the red and black. The only problem is, he doesn’t teach at Huntley – he teaches at Fremd.

Zimolzak is in his fifth year coaching at Huntley, his first as head coach, but has remained a physics teacher at Fremd.

He has a handful of Fremd football players in his AP physics classes this year.

“It’s fun, the kids are all respectful and wishing me luck; I’m wishing them luck,” Zimolzak said. “I haven’t yet threatened them with their grades.

We’ll wait until later for that.”

Fremd coach Lou Sponsel knows a thing or two about Zimolzak’s physics classes, too. Sponsel had Zimolzak as a physics teacher when Sponsel was a senior at Fremd, and Zimolzak was in his first year teaching in 1995.

“He has a gift for being able to relate that material and get kids to understand it, while still relating to them as people,” Sponsel said. “He got me to un-

When I went to college, I took physics again. After having Zim as a teacher, it was a breeze.”

Zimolzak remembers Sponsel as a leader on those Fremd teams in the mid1990s playing for coach Mike Donatucci.

“Sponsel was kind of [Donatucci’s] protegé,” Zimolzak said. “Lou, when he was at Fremd, he was an inside ’backer and one of the stronger kids on the team.

He set the tempo for the program.”

Sponsel played at Northern Illinois and eventually returned to Fremd as a physical education teacher in 2003.

Zimolzak and Sponsel were on the same staff until 2012, when Donatucci retired. Sponsel took over the head job at Fremd and with it came changes to the coaching staff.

What’s the coolest place you have been? Lake Powell in Utah and Arizona, it’s on the border. It’s in the middle of a desert.

It’s a huge lake with hundred-foot, red-rock cliffs on either side. There’s really cool caves and such. You can rent a houseboat. You’re kind of isolated. It’s pretty cool.

If you could invite any three people to dinner, who would it be? I’d start with Drew Brees, Peyton Manning and Ray Lewis.

Huntley’s football coach Matt Zimolzak directs his players during a summer camp on June 15 in Huntley. Zimolzak is in his fifth year coaching at Huntley, his first as head coach, but has remained a physics teacher at Fremd. The Red Raiders will play Fremd on Saturday in a Class 8A second-round playoff game.

What did you eat before the game? I had a bag of trail mix.

Do you have a pregame ritual? Not specifically. Just the trail mix. I eat that every game.

It has M&Ms, peanuts, cashews and raisins.

Is there anyone you style your game after? I try to be maybe like (former Ravens linebacker) Ray Lewis, the attitude that he has on the field and the player than he was.

What’s your proudest sports moment?

That’s a tough one. Probably the Super Bowls that I won in Jr. Wolves. I won in fifth, seventh and eighth grade.

Who is your biggest hero? My two older brothers (twins Matt, 20, and Michael, 20), just because of the way they helped me through sports when I was younger and the examples they set for me.

Do you have any hobbies outside of sports? I’d say my hobbies are dirt biking and downhill skiing.

Where do you go skiing? Usually out west, Winter Park, a ski resort (in Winter Park, Colorado).

Do you have any hidden talents? I can’t say I do.

CELTICS 107, BULLS 100

Bulls better equipped for adversity

Hoiberg’s group suffers 1st defeat of the season

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com BOSTON – Even Fred Hoiberg is having trouble escaping last season.

Enough so that the topic led to the second-year Bulls coach getting a bit snippy during a media session before Wednesday’s 107100 loss to the Celtics at the TD Garden.

“I’ll talk about this group of guys,” Hoiberg insisted, when asked if the dynamic of this team made it easier on a coach compared to last year’s makeup.

When another reporter tried to get Hoiberg back on point, the coach fired back, “That’s what I’m answering.”

Answer he did, doing his best to tip-toe around the obvious.

What he couldn’t avoid discussing, however, was two-time AllStar Jimmy Butler saying a day earlier that not only did he judge his then-rookie coach too harshly last season, but that Hoiberg actually has improved as a coach from his 2015-16 campaign.

“I think you’re always evolving, even the [coaches] who have been around the league a long time,” Hoiberg said. “They’re always watching film and looking to make improvements with their team.

Bulls guard Jimmy Butler hangs from the rim after dunking over Celtics forward Gerald Green during the second half of Wednesday’s game in Boston.

The Bulls lost, 107-100.

“That was obviously a huge emphasis for us in the offseason, was to make improvements to look at things we liked and obviously a lot of things we didn’t like.”

But he also needed a group of players that not only bought in, but were able to understand what they were buying into.

That line of communication was less than smooth last season, whether it was Derrick Rose’s basketball IQ being below average or the benching of Joakim Noah and the mishandling of it on Hoiberg’s part that never seemed to sit well in the locker room with the veteran center.

And although the only adversity this current group of Bulls players has gone through so far this season was a left knee injury to Michael Carter-Williams and Doug McDermott missing the Boston game because of still being in the concussion protocol,

Hoiberg can’t avoid the obvious: This group of players are better equipped to handle adversity.

“We went through obviously a lot last year,” Hoiberg said.

“I think it was 212 (total games missed because of) injuries and that type of thing. The big thing you do after a year like we had is you do a lot of soul searching, you watch a lot of film and you try to make the necessary improvements to put your team in better position to win and be in the playoffs.

“Obviously, chemistry is very important in this league. You have to have open lines of communications with your players. Yeah, the player-coach relationship is very important. The player-player relationship is obviously very important, and I think we’re better if I had to say in both those areas this year.”

A lot of good feelings going around through the first week, but even good feelings hit roadblocks. That was the case against Boston, with the Bulls (3-1) losing their first game of the season.

Not that they didn’t have chances.

Down just one with 1:36 left in the game, Nikola Mirotic missed both free throws. They would hurt, as Isaiah Thomas made it a three-point Celtics lead. Rajon Rondo then missed a 21-foot jumper with 1:09 left, and Boston (3-1) was able to put the game on ice.

“We’re not going to win all of our games,” Dwyane Wade said.

“Last time I checked, no team has ever gone undefeated through a season.”

Continued from page 11 Zimolzak landed as the offensive line coach at Huntley. He spent the next three seasons as defensive coordinator before becoming head coach before this season. Zimolzak lives in Huntley and his son, Connor, is a junior defensive back for the Raiders.

“It worked out well for Zim,” Sponsel said. “He’s a head coach now. He went on to coordinate and find his niche.”

During school days, Zimolzak spends his time in the classroom, and Sponsel spends his time in the gym, so their paths don’t often cross. When they do, they usually talk about their upcoming games.

Zimolzak has taught many of Sponsel’s football players, including starting quarterback Tom Josten. Zimolzak had Josten in class last year and called him a “smart kid” with a “great demeanor.” He also has taught senior safety-receiver Joe Schneider and senior tight end Austin Schwantz, among others.

“Zim’s very professional,” Sponsel said. “He’s probably one of the most talented teachers we have at Fremd. I know the kids love him.”

On Saturday, Zimolzak and the Huntley defense will be tasked with stopping Josten – who always sat near the front in Zimolzak’s class – and the Fremd offense. Fremd (7-3) is fresh off a 45-42 victory over Brother Rice in the opening round.

“Josten’s a great quarterback and he puts the ball where they need to,” Zimolzak said. “And they have a big offensive line. Defensively, they’re sound.”

Huntley has faced pass-heavy offenses such as Jacobs and Hampshire, as well as run-heavy attacks such as Cary-Grove and Prairie Ridge. Zimolzak said Fremd does a nice job of balancing its attack.

Win or lose this week, Zimolzak probably will keep wearing his Huntley gear to class. Even so, he respects the guys he is scheming against.

“I work for Huntley and I work for Fremd,” Zimolzak said. “Sometimes I work basketball games there. I respect both programs, both schools. Both worked really hard to get to where they are.

“I spent most of my coaching career at Fremd.

There’s a lot of mutual respect. There hasn’t been any razzing or anything like that.”

Still, someone will have bragging rights in physics class Monday.

McHENRY COUNTY COLLEGE VOLLEYBALL

MCC team enters Region IV tourney as No. 11 in nation

By ALEX KANTECKI

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

McHenry County College’s Kayli Trausch (from left), Kyla Fitzsimmons, Nicole Johnston, McKenzie McKay and McKenna Miller listen to their coach during volleyball practice Oct. 27 at McHenry County College in Crystal Lake.

Region IV volleyball playoffs as the No. 11 team in the nation. Last year, they finished 10th. They’ll start the postseason Saturday after getting a bye in the first round.

MCC will play the winner of Black Hawk College and Lake County at 10 a.m. With a win, the Scots will play for their second straight district championship at 2:30 p.m. Both matches will be at College of Lake County in Grayslake.

If they win the district championship, they will compete at the national tournament Nov. 17 to 19 in Charleston, West Virginia. At last year’s tournament, they lost their first match and went 1-2, a win shy of playing for ninth place.

“I knew what our aspirations were, but I didn’t know how fast we would get there,” McCall said. “When Shari and I were hired late in 2013, we would literally walk the halls looking for players. ‘Hey, she’s tall. Maybe she knows what volleyball is.’

“We’re so happy with our recruiting class for this year, and we’re hoping we can build a really successful recruiting class for 2017. At the end of the day, we want to be a team

that’s nationally known and nationally recognized.”

McCall believes the Scots are almost there, if not already. For some time, Parkland College in Champaign, the No. 1 team in the country, didn’t invite MCC to any of its tournaments. Now, MCC is invited to all of them.

They already have one local player, Huntley senior Caitlin Thorelius, who has committed for next season, McCall said, and he and Mayner continuously are looking for new players.

“Between last year and this year, I think we’ve gained the respect from a lot of different teams across the country,” McCall said.

Although Traff came a long way to join the Scots, McCall and Mayner’s recruiting always starts locally. More than half of this year’s team is made up of local players, including Kayli Trausch (Cary-Grove), Kyla Fitzsimmons (Jacobs), Nicole Johnston (Marengo), McKenna Miller (Prairie Ridge) and McKenzie McKay (Johnsburg).

Rounding out the roster are Sommer Rhea (Oregon), Amanda Sagen (Oregon, Wisconsin), and Anna Schupbach

(Princeville). The Scots won the Illinois Skyway Collegiate Conference for the second straight season with a team that is bigger physically than last year.

“Last year, we had some different strengths. ... And this year, we’re a bit more balanced,” McCall said. “This year we have three of four threats, and that makes a pretty big difference, especially when you’re trying to mold and create a system with girls that are coming from all different lives of volleyball.”

Trausch and Fitzsimmons were named to the All-Region IV first team, while Rhea was named to the second team.

Trausch joined in the middle of last season and is the only sophomore on the team and one of the program’s biggest advocates.

“When I joined the team halfway through last year, he already had a couple of the girls (signed), but actually quite a few of them I got to meet on their visit,” said Trausch, who led NJCAA DII in points during the regular season and was fourth in kills with 473.

“I spoke nothing but highly of the program and Kyle be-

CRYSTAL LAKE – Payton Traff won a pair of state championships in Alabama and thirsted for a college volleyball program with a similar winning tradition.

Traff, a Montgomery, Alabama, native, had other options. She could have stayed closer to home.

But after talking to McHenry County College volleyball coach Kyle McCall and visiting the campus, Traff decided the two-year school in Crystal Lake was the right fit for her.

“Kyle just did a really good job of recruiting me,” Traff said. “Since they had a winning program last year, it just really made me want to be a part of a winning team. I came out, I met some of the girls, and I just really fell in love with it. And he’s really made me a great player.”

Traff had interest from other schools, but, in the end, she chose MCC, an NJCAA Division II program coming off a 39-9 season and the school’s first national tournament berth since 2009.

“It’s really far from home.

I’m 13 hours away,” Traff said. “I just really wanted the chance to get away, start fresh, just to see what was out there.

I live in a small town, and it looked like it was the path I needed to take.

“Kyle has great experience, and I was like, ‘This coach can form me into a great setter and get me where I need to go.’ I had other schools looking at me, but I just didn’t fall in love with them the way I did here.”

Traff is one of eight new recruits this year for McCall and assistant coach Shari Mayner, who took over the program four seasons ago. MCC won only six matches in 2013, but the Scots are on the verge of becoming a national powerhouse, a goal of McCall’s since being named coach.

The Scots (26-12) enter the

cause I loved it, and it gave me a second chance to play. I love it here.”

Trausch’s and Traff’s love for the school and the program is a common theme among the players.

“When I came to visit here the first time, the team felt really like home,” said Fitzsimmons, who is 32nd in the country in kills (327). “Even though I’m really close to home, we spend so much time together that I don’t feel like I’m missing home at all.”

Trausch, who had given up on volleyball after returning home from Eastern Illinois a year ago, is getting looks from NCAA D-I schools, and she plans to continue playing.

She has received interest from Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Clemson and Northern Iowa.

She also has had to take on a leadership role this season as a sophomore and lead by example.

“They’ve adapted so quickly, and they’ve had to take on new positions and roles on the team just because of how things have changed,” Trausch said “They’ve done an amazing job with it. We’re feeling very confident with where we are right now. We know that we still have room to build, but we’re in a great spot.”

The Scots need two more wins to return to nationals.

McCall purposefully put together a challenging nonconference schedule this year and believes it will pay off in the long run.

“Knowing what our capabilities are, knowing that we’ve been somewhat successful, that gives us those opportunities to be very good,” McCall said. “I feel like we’ve got a great opportunity, and I think we’ll be fresh going into our regional.”

Traff agrees.

“I’ve won two high school state championships, so I love to win and I love to compete,” Traff said. “I think that’s one of the reasons why Kyle wanted me to come, because he saw that I knew how to win and not hide from that pressure. I’m excited. I think we’re going to do well this year.”

Safe Roads Amendment affects sportsman This election season has driven me crazy. Yes, I know what you’re thinking: It’s a very short drive. I’ve heard it before.

I was hoping to not feel compelled to say anything about politics this go-round, but after receiving messages from a couple of people whose opinions I greatly respect, I feel it necessary to comment.

Both Debbie Bruce, the recently retired fish chief of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, and Mike Conlin, who retired from the same job in 2009, sent me their feelings on an important issue.

Debbie and Mike’s messages read in part: “You all have seen and written articles about not voting for ‘The Safe Roads – Lockbox – Amendment,’ but what most don’t know is that if it passes, it will undo what so many worked so hard for – The Sustainability Bill for Illinois Department of Natural Resources. This will be devastating to IDNR, and particularly the Division of Fisheries. This is a potential loss of $30 million to $40 million. Most also do not know that because of the lack of a state fiscal year 2016 budget and only a stopgap budget for the rest of calendar year 2016, IDNR lost all the federal fiscal year 2016 wildlife and sport fish restoration funds and is in danger of losing federal fiscal year 2017 funding.”

“It is troubling that all IDNR spokespersons can say is that they will review impacts after the amendment passes.”

“Lawmakers have indicated to some that they will pass legislation for implementation of the Lockbox amendment to clarify what counts as transportation revenue and spending.

Some backers have said this will apply to a narrow set of revenue sources, and not to specialty license plates.

There is no guarantee on that and the legislation could be legally challenged

Wisconsin to revise stadium policy after offensive costume

MADISON, Wis. – Wisconsin will revise home football game policies after a fan at a game against Nebraska was asked to remove offensive parts of a costume that appeared to be a President Barack Obama mask and a noose around his neck.

Athletic director Barry Alvarez said in a statement Wednesday that he was “deeply troubled by the incident ... and sorry for the harm it caused.”

Alvarez said he is determined that “nothing like it would happen again.”

The school plans to have a revised policy in place in time for Wisconsin’s next game Nov. 12 against Illinois at Camp Randall Stadium.

Alvarez met with community leaders and students Wednesday to discuss the stadium policies. “Our department is committed to working collaboratively to make our stadium a great and safe place for fans to watch a football game,” Alvarez said.

The Big Ten will play six Friday night football games a year starting in 2017 and continuing through at least 2022, the conference announced Wednesday.

Not every school wants to host those games, however. The Friday games are being added to the conference’s TV agreements with ESPN/ABC and Fox, Senior Associate Commissioner Mark Rudner said.

He was found as a stray and taken to a kill shelter in Kentucky.

This handsome gentleman has white on his throat and chest with some frosting around his mouth. He is a super sweet and laid back dog. He seems to be good with other dogs especially if they are mellow and less excitable. Don't let his age fool you, he still has a lot of spunk but not overly boisterous or energetic. He gets very excited when he sees his leash and is so easy to walk. He seems to love being around people, getting petted, being outside and would be a good cuddler. He can be a little shy at first until he gets to know you, then you can give him scratches and hugs. The staff says he keeps his kennel clean too. Finn is the kind of dog you could take almost anyplace to be around almost anyone. What a wonderful companion he would make for some lucky person.

BoDeans to bring ‘familiar groove’ to Crystal Lake Raue

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

Working on Christmas songs for the Netflix original show “The Ranch” since about July, Kurt Neumann of the BoDeans might have to switch gears a bit when he takes the stage Nov. 4 at the Raue Center for the Arts in Crystal Lake.

It’s all in a day’s work for the Wisconsin native, who said to expect the same highenergy performance and “Americana rockand-roll” hits the BoDeans are known for, along with some new music from the band.

“I want to work in music wherever I can, as much as I can,” Neumann said from his home studio outside of Austin, Texas.

Neumann’s written and co-written numerous songs for his own personal album (2000’s “Shy Dog”), the band, television shows and movies.

With Neumann co-writing most of the songs, the BoDeans made a name for themselves 30 years ago upon release of the band’s first album, 1986’s “Love & Hope & Sex & Dreams.”

Despite the band’s chart-topping hits through the years, Neumann still considers himself a work in progress.

“I keep trying to get better at it,” Neumann said of his music. “Sometimes, people are so naturally gifted … someone who opens their mouth and this magic and

beauty comes out. I’m just amazed by that.

I think I’m not so hugely talented, but I love music, and I’m always chipping away at it.”

Growing up in Waukesha, Wisconsin, Neumann co-founded the BoDeans in the early 1980s with his high school classmate Sam Llanas. Llanas left the band in 2011 and embarked on a solo career. He reportedly failed to arrive in Colorado for a performance, texting band members he’d quit.

Neumann since has carried on with the BoDeans, summing up Llanas’ departure with only this: “That’s a real dark nasty thing nobody wants to hear about because it’s so awful.”

He said the band went through somewhat of a rebuilding period after the split, but quickly found its footing.

“We got around the country and everybody saw us playing and singing the songs, and it sounded pretty much the same,” Neumann said.

“Everybody came out to jump around and sing along, and that never changed.

We’ve got 10 years under our belts together. I think everybody is kind of familiar with the band and that same sound, that familiar groove.”

It’s a groove found in older hits, such as “Fadeaway,” “Only Love” and “Dreams,” along with others through

• BODEANS

Continued from page 4 With the band’s music featured in at least three episodes of “The Ranch,” starring Ashton Kutcher, Danny Masterson, Debra Winger and Sam Elliott on Netflix, Neumann and his fellow bandmates actually performed on Episode 7 of the show, spending a day on set.

It was quite a day for Neumann, already a fan of Elliott and the Fox hit “That ’70s Show,” which also starred Kutcher and Masterson.

Neumann’s not quite sure how his music and the music of the BoDeans became so intertwined with television and movies, but he’s proud it did. The connection first began with the BoDeans hit, “Still The Night,” written by Neumann and Guy Hoffman, being featured in 1986’s “The Color of Money” starring Tom Cruise and Paul Newman.

“Sometimes, they just like what you do and you create a bunch of stuff for them, or the producers will reach out to me and say ‘I need stuff like this,’ ”

when he was only 16. Information: http://thedukeabides.com/events/.

Neumann said.

“Working on a TV show is nice because it’s not so self-indulgent,” he said.

“You’re creating something for someone else and what they’re looking for. For the new BoDeans album, you’re writing about what’s going on in your heart and mind. To me, that’s a little more difficult than writing for a TV show. But it’s all work. You have to find work.”

The new BoDeans album, “Lucky Man,” by the way, is expected in February, with the single “My Hometown” – written by Neumann about his time growing up in Waukesha – already available. Proceeds from the sale of the single benefit the Milwaukee County Historical Society, which has its own BoDeans exhibit.

“A lot of the new record was kind of based on growing up in small towns in the Midwest, my experience of where I was raised. It wasn’t until I moved out of the Midwest I realized Midwesterners kind of had their own thing,” said Neumann, who eventually would like to find his way back to the Midwest.

“I just love it. It’s where I want to be.”

McHenry students create, star in their own theater production

By JAMI KUNZER

jkunzer@shawmedia.com

The McHenry High School Theatre Department didn’t need to buy the rights to its fall production this year. The students wrote it.

With new director Billy Seger at the helm, students created and will star in an original play based on Commedia dell’arte, an artform popular during the Italian Renaissance based on masked types, or stock characters.

The production, “Una Serie Di Stilti,” opens Nov. 3 at McHenry High School West Campus. The play is scheduled for 7 p.m. Nov. 3-4 and 2 and 7 p.m. Nov. 5, with tickets $6 for students and seniors and $8 for adults.

Seger and nine theater students began writing the production about two months ago, throwing out scenarios and scene ideas and using improv-based exercises. It was a work in progress, with student finishing up the final pages last week.

“It being my first year, I wanted to make sure it was unique and special, and to show the students we can create something just as good as any previously written play,” Seger said. “This is something they can take ownership of.”

With eight characters – two lovers reminiscent of Romeo and Juliet, two older men or fathers, a captain with a false persona, two servants and a courtesan – the play is set in the Italian Renaissance, but has a modern flair.

“They’re characters you would recognize in any of today’s movies, novels,

plays,” Seger said.

In the production, a pair of star-crossed lovers, Ottavio and Isabella, enlist the help of their faithful servants to rectify the feud of their fathers Dottore and Pantalone.

Further hijinks ensue by way of a falsely decorated captain of the Spanish Armada, who wishes to win Isabella’s hand in marriage, and the greedy faded courtesan, Signora.

Instead of the masks typically incorporated in Commedia dell’arte, the students will wear makeup masks. For instance, one of the older men is painted with a permanent scowl.

With the help of about 40 students involved in everything from makeup to costumes to the setting – a town square in Italy – the production will be a two-act, full-length show.

“All around, it was a very intensive creative process,” said Seger, who began acting and directing professionally throughout the country after graduating from Woodstock High School in 2005. He returned to take on the director role for McHenry’s theater department this year, and will appear in the Raue Center for the Arts’ upcoming “A Christmas Survival Guide,” opening Nov. 26.

Seger also starred in Williams Street Repertory’s “[title of show]” last summer at the Raue and is the choreographer for “A Christmas Story: The Musical,” opening Nov. 4 at the Woodstock Opera House.

Acting and tricks magical in Goodman’s brand new play REVIEWS Paul Lockwood Magic always has fascinated me.

Part of it is the idea that something is being done right before my eyes and I have no earthly idea how it was done.

The other is I admire the showmanship and skill necessary to deceive an audience and entertain them at the same time. Actors can do something similar, bringing a character to life so well you laugh at, empathize with and ultimately are entertained and/or moved by their performances. A brand new play at the Goodman Theatre, “The Magic Play,” does an excellent job of combining these two worlds; the result is a magical night of theater.

Brett Schneider, a magician, illusion designer and actor, is the lead character in this drama by Andrew Hinderaker. Schneider’s character (The Magician) is a promising young magician who has his illusions well in hand (often literally) and his patter down pat, but whose broken relationships threaten to undo him.

His boyfriend, identified as The

“THE MAGIC PLAY” WHEN: Through Nov. 20 WHERE: Goodman Theatre, 170 N. Dearborn St., Chicago COST & INFO: World-class magic and a deeply human story of loss and love come together to create one astonishing theatrical experience. Recommended for ages 13 and older. Tickets start at $15. For a show schedule and information, visit www.goodmantheatre.org.

Diver (Sean Parris), just has left him, and hallucinations of The Diver are disrupting his ability to perform the magic he’s clearly quite good at. Standard lines used in his act are thrown back at him by his hallucination (“ ‘I need to earn your trust,’ so I’m going to show you a trick?”). The Magician also still is dealing with, or neglecting to handle, the fact his father abandoned him when The Magician was only 8 (“He was a magician who disappeared on us.”). The Father (Francis Guinan) is a very different kind of magician performing in Reno; his son hasn’t seen him since the day he walked out.

These three characters are the only

ones in the play, but under the direction of Halena Kays, Schneider, Parris and Guinan make them feel like real people in the unreal worlds of showbiz magic and, in the case of Parris’ character, Olympic diving. The humor interlaced throughout the show helps make the tension between The Magician and The Diver, and between The Magician and The Father, more palpable. We admire the artistry of The Magician while caring whether he can mend the rifts in his personal life.

The set, designed by Lizzie Bracken, is straightforward: a center table with a live video cam above it to project everything on the scrim The Magician does there (with cards, etc.) and two additional tables – one on stage right and one on stage left – with props for a couple of later tricks.

Behind the scrim is a setting that provides a glimpse of The Diver’s work environment. Minor changes are made to the set for the second act. The simplicity, complemented by some key lighting and other effects, plays well here – our attention is focused where it should be: on The Magician’s how’dhe-do-that performance and on these three-dimensional characters.

“Sometimes the lie’s more beautiful than the truth.” That statement by

The Magician is the underlying theme here. Whether it will lead to happiness or heartbreak, and whether it’s valid beyond the trickery the audience enjoys watching, is the driving force for the plot.

No two shows will be exactly alike – largely because of the variety of audience members who are enlisted to assist in the magic parts of the show.

That makes me eager to see it again, and I’d encourage adults who don’t mind an occasional profanity to catch it between now and Nov. 20.

“The Magic Play” is funny, serious and most definitely, magical. Don’t let it disappear before your eyes.

He began performing at birthday and Christmas parties at age 13.

“It’s an honor to get to perform there,” Kline said of the Raue show.

For Cruz and others involved with the benefit through the years, the show has become a rewarding tradition.

“It makes me feel like a kid again, and it’s my passion,” Cruz said. “It’s raising money for the Raue, and I just have a blast. Glenn and I, we always pick each other’s brains. We get the juices flowing to keep coming up with something new.”

By SANDY COHEN The Associated Press

No affinity for superheroes or familiarity with Marvel mythology is required to enjoy the visual spectacle that is “Doctor Strange.” Being open to mysticism and the possibility of parallel dimensions might help, though.

Benedict Cumberbatch plays the title character in this origin story, where plot is secondary to dazzling special effects that invert gravity, reverse time and twist buildings like blocks in a Rubik’s Cube. It’s worth it to watch the film in 3-D, and on an IMAX screen if possible (as this critic did), for an immersive, almost psychedelic experience. Two spectacular action sequences in the third act are enough to justify the ticket price.

Dr. Stephen Strange (Cumberbatch) is a brilliant, arrogant neurosurgeon.

He’s a know-it-all about medicine and music; a materialist with an expansive apartment and a drawer full of designer watches. His commuter car is a Lamborghini, and he’s speeding around curves in it when he’s distracted by a text and flies off a cliff.

He awakens from surgery to finds his hands shattered and held together with a series of metal pins.

Despondent because he can’t work, Strange travels to Nepal, where he

“DOCTOR STRANGE” STARRING: Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams

PLOT: A former neurosurgeon embarks on a journey of healing only to be drawn into the world of the mystic arts.

RATED: PG-13 for sci-fi violence and action throughout, and an intense crash sequence RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 55 minutes

believes a healer may have cured someone from complete paralysis.

He ends up at a palace where he meets the mysterious Mordor (Chiwetel Ejiofor) and the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton), warriors who introduce him to magical powers and mystical realms. As a scientist, Strange dismisses their teachings (“I do not believe in fairytales about chakras”), but desperation – and a bizarre trip down a third-eye wormhole – make him a believer.

Meanwhile, one of the Ancient One’s former students (Mads Mikkelsen, always an excellent villain) has gone rogue, using the mystical teachings to connect with dark forces.

He and his minions believe they’ll receive eternal life if they destroy the sanctums of the Ancient One’s power, which conveniently are located in New York, London and Hong Kong –

all dynamic settings for destruction and mind-bending magic.

Each of the city sequences look great, but the New York scenes are truly phenomenal. In the hands of director Scott Derrickson and the special-effects artists who worked on “Guardians of the Galaxy,” the Big Apple becomes mesmerizingly Escheresque: a disjointed, gravity-ignorant collection of streets and buildings.

While some of the magical elements may be far out (a levitating cape, for example), the Ancient One’s messages are grounded in contemporary pop psychology and spirituality. She says things like, “We never lose our demons, we only learn to live above them,” and “Silence your ego and your power will rise.” Coming from a bald Tilda Swinton, it sounds more insightful than preachy.

The film addresses such sweeping concepts as death and time, but only to define the characters’ motives. Some of the messages may be worth contemplating, but “Doctor Strange” is not a message movie. It is a visual delight, where the spiritual notion not all can be explained by science allows for an “Inception”-like unraveling of reality.

Be sure to stay through the credits for two delicious Marvel “Easter eggs.” One involves a massive, selfrefilling beer and the other teases a possible “Strange” future.

Mel Gibson roars back with bruising ‘Hacksaw Ridge’

By JOCELYN NOVECK The Associated Press

Is “Hacksaw Ridge” Mel Gibson’s redemption? Is it his atonement, or perhaps his miracle?

Don’t worry, we won’t be making any such weighty theological pronouncements – though these terms all have been bandied about in the run-up to Gibson’s first directorial effort in the 10 years since “Apocalypto.” That movie came out in 2006, only a few months after news broke of Gibson’s drunken anti-Semitic rant, which has plagued his career ever since.

But “Hacksaw Ridge,” the latest contribution to the canon of big World War II films, doesn’t need any redemptive backstory. Whatever you think of Gibson, and whatever your position on the relevance of his personal flaws to his art, his filmmaking prowess is evident. This big, bruising, viscerally violent yet also often moving film should be judged on its merits.

“Hacksaw Ridge,” starring the goofily appealing Andrew Garfield as the real-life character Desmond Doss, may not be a perfect movie,

“HACKSAW RIDGE” STARRING: Andrew Garfield, Sam Worthington, Luke Bracey PLOT: WWII American Army Medic Desmond T. Doss, who served during the Battle of Okinawa, refuses to kill people and becomes the first conscientious objector in American history to be awarded the Medal of Honor.

RATED: R for intense prolonged realistically graphic sequences of war violence, including grisly bloody images TIME: 2 hours, 11 minutes but it strikes an unusual balance.

It’s a violent film whose hero – and moral core – espouses non-violence.

It’s a war film that also will appeal to a faith-based audience. It’s a film that at moments can feel relentlessly corny – and a second later, painfully, horribly real.

Doss, a Seventh-day Adventist, was the first conscientious objector to be awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. An Army medic, he refused to touch a weapon, believing he should be saving lives and not taking them.

Though his exploits are a matter of

record, we won’t spill all the details here.

After an early introduction to Doss as a boy in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, we pick up in young adulthood. When war breaks out with Japan, the young man feels compelled to enlist, despite the objections of his loving, but abusive, father (an excellent Hugo Weaving), a World War I veteran who was ruined by the experience. Doss also is going against the wishes of his new fiancée, Dorothy (fresh-faced Teresa Palmer), who begs him to stay. (The couple’s meet-cute scenes are charming but extremely retro and not a little corny.)

Doss arrives at training camp, eager to serve. But when he won’t touch a rifle, his superiors are aghast.

“Private Doss does not believe in violence,” taunts one sergeant. “Do not look to him to save your life on the battlefield!” He’s played by Vince Vaughn, whose approach at first seems too comedic – as if in another movie. But he soon settles into an effectively understated performance.

Doss is pressured to leave the army – subjected to beatings, harassment, ultimately a court-martial – and only survives due to dramatic

intervention from on high. And then it’s on to Japan, to Okinawa and specifically the brutal battle at Hacksaw Ridge, high up on a punishing cliff where untold horrors await.

It is here that Gibson’s hand is the surest. The suddenness with which death arrives in combat, the unfathomable randomness of it all, a man’s jaunty bravado crumbling into paralyzing fear – the director sugarcoats nothing. As the men first climb toward their enemy, they pass their fallen comrades. Some corpses are in parts. Some have maggots crawling out of them.

It is during this battle Doss becomes a hero, finding a way to save countless men by persevering when most others have been forced to retreat. He is guided by his faith; at one point, he asks God out loud what is expected of him. Garfield knows how to make such a scene feel honest – no easy feat.

Many fact-based movies end with some real-life footage. It’s always welcome, but here, it’s truly exciting to see Doss, alive and speaking (he died in 2006). His is a story you probably didn’t know, and will be glad you did.

Gibson does well by it.

‘Trolls’ is big-hearted sensory overload

By LINDSEY BAHR The Associated Press

It’s somewhat fitting that the new DreamWorks Animation feature “Trolls” is coming out right after Halloween. The movie is a sugary sweet confection of sights and sounds that surely will leave a fair share of adults with an aching stomach and bleeding ears from sensory overload. But, it’s not for them, is it? Sure, it’s their childhood toys that are being riffed on, but beyond the dazzlingly grotesque renderings of the 1970s rec room look – all carpets and felt and mustard yellows – “Trolls” is not a nostalgia play.

It’s for the kids, and fairly young ones too, who no doubt will be swept up by the neon, the sterilized cover songs of pop music past and present, and the goofy, big-hearted humor. Even the parents will find loads of charm from that last one. The script is quite clever, but it too easily is overshadowed by everything else that’s going on (which is a lot).

The governing theory behind “Trolls” seems to have been to crank it up to eleven at every turn. That fits with the mantra of the Trolls themselves, which is hyper positivity (and I do mean hyper). They sing and dance and hug every hour and celebrate with joyous abandon. There’s even a Troll in

“TROLLS” STARRING: Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake, Zooey Deschanel PLOT: After the Bergens invade Troll Village, Poppy, the happiest Troll ever born, and the curmudgeonly Branch set off on a journey to rescue her friends.

RATED: PG for some mild rude humor TIME: 1 hour, 32 minutes

full body sparkles who sings only in auto-tune – an example of how the jokes can go way too far into just plain annoying territory.

Thankfully, it’s grounded with some truly fantastic vocal talent led

by Anna Kendrick (Princess Poppy), whose impeccable comedic timing and silky speaking and singing perfectly are used. I just wish they would have stuck with more original songs, saving the known pop tunes for comedic effect only. Sonically speaking, “Trolls” is hitting a little too close to that abysmal George Lucas mess “Strange Magic.”

The story itself is an odd one. The Trolls have some distant neighbors called Bergens – grotesque-looking monsters suffering from chronic depression who decided long ago the only way to be happy is to eat Trolls. Yes,

EAT the Trolls, like their own personal supply of Prozac. For some reason, they only do this once a year on Trollstice.

But that all ended 20-some years ago when the Troll King Peppy (Jeffrey Tambor) heroically staged a massive escape mission, saving his subjects from death by Bergen.

Cut to the present day and the Trolls are happy and celebratory as ever, but their party gets a little too rowdy and, well, an exiled Bergen (Christine Baranski) spots them and captures a few to weasel her way back into the good graces of the people of Bergen Town. The dreary ugliness of Bergen Town and its inhabitants actually has a bit of a Jim Henson-vibe, reminding older audiences of a time when children’s productions still were allowed to be insanely weird and even a little creepy. But it stops at the visu-

als. Even the awkward Bergen scullery maid Bridget (Zooey Deschanel) has a perfectly crisp pop voice when she bursts into Lionel Richie’s “Hello.”

Why didn’t she go full character actress in song? It’s just another one of the ways in which “Trolls” mashes up past and present in a way that doesn’t quite coalesce.

In any event, Poppy and the rare negative troll Branch (Justin Timberlake) take it on themselves to go try to save the captured Trolls. They have a fun enough buddy comedy chemistry together, though Timberlake is not as adept at voice acting as Kendrick is.

And ultimately, the “get happy” moral of the story, while trite compared to something like “Inside Out,” is sufficiently sweet enough for its audience.

Heat your home without wasting energy this season

(BPT) - If you’re interested in living a greener lifestyle, perhaps you’re already trying to reduce your energy usage as much as possible. Maybe you ride your bike to work, unplug your electronics when they’re not in use, use fans during warm weather and avoid wasting water.

Saving energy can get more difficult, however, when the seasons change and colder weather sets in. Heat is a primary source of energy usage.

In fact, research from Tulikivi, the world’s largest manufacturer of heat-retaining fireplaces, shows that 52 percent of a home’s annual energy consumption is allocated to heat.

Now is the time to think about reducing your energy usage during the winter. Here are some ideas that will help you enjoy a warm, cozy home

while saving both money and energy.

Heat more efficiently A crackling fire makes for more than just a pleasurable experience; it can also be an energy-efficient heating source. Fireplaces from Tulikivi help heat your home long after the fire goes out. Tulikivi fireplaces are built from soapstone, which has better thermal conductivity compared to other materials because of its dense structure and mineral composition.

For homeowners, this means once you start a fire in your fireplace, the soapstone will store heat in its thermal mass, allowing a two-hour burn to radiate heat for up to 24 hours.

This lets you enjoy the clean, comfortable, cost-saving warmth without using additional energy.

You can learn more about Tulikivi, the recycled materials used in its manufacturing process, the clean combustion of its masonry heaters and its commitment to sustainability

energy efficiency is to reduce your energy waste. Window cracks and door drafts allow warm air to escape, which means you’re leaking both energy and money.

Seal those areas by using caulk to shore up any drafty windows and put plastic wrap over the window surface to keep out the chill. For the door jambs, you can purchase a door stopper to plug the gap or you can use a towel at the base to block the opening.

Try to close off the bottom of any exterior door, particularly the doors you seldom use.

Make sure your other heating options are running efficiently When you’re not using your fireplace, it’s good to know your backup heating options are operating efficiently. Have

Although it’s still nice outside, colder temperatures are on their way. That doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your green lifestyle when you cheeks turn red.

your furnace inspected routinely and make sure you change the filter each month. You should also invest in a smart thermostat. This technology allows you to set the temperature of your home for different times of the day so you can lower it when you’re sleeping or away. The calendar option means you can program your home’s temperatures ensuring you never waste energy.

Cory Doctorow, a Canadian-British blogger, journalist and science fiction author, wrote, “Abnormal is so common, it’s practically normal.”

At the bridge table, the abnormal happens rarely, and most of the time it is missed, especially on defense.

It is hard to make a play that would normally be suicidal but is the only winner on a given deal.

How should West analyze this layout? South is in four spades. West leads the club queen. South wins with his ace and plays a low trump.

From where should West hope to find four tricks?

North’s Jacoby Forcing Raise showed four-plus trumps and at least game-forcing values. South, with a minimum opening bid and no short suit, jumped to game.

Most defenders sitting West would immediately play second hand low at trick two. Then, though, declarer would win on the board and lead another trump. He would lose only one spade and two hearts.

When the dummy appears, the defenders should ask for a timeout so that they can analyze the deal. Here, West can see two defensive tricks: his spade ace and heart king. He should next count the high-card points. He has 10, and dummy holds 14. That leaves 16 for the other two players.

East can have just one high card.

Which one would be useful?

Only the heart ace. West must win the second trick and shift to the heart king. Here, that works perfectly; the defenders take the spade ace, two top hearts and a heart ruff. But if it turned out that South had the heart ace, this play would cost only an overtrick.

Keep counting those points.
