Metra offers World Series Championship The daily parade downtown travel tips, special ticket TWEET @NWHerald

NORTHWEST HERALD With trains expected to reach capacity Friday as people travel to Chicago for the 2016 Cubs World Series Championship parade, Metra is providing tips on how to travel downtown.

Extra train services will be used to accommodate fans Friday, according to a news release from Metra. A one-day $5 unlimited ride ticket also will be offered, and passengers are encouraged to purchase it in advance.

Tickets are available at ticket agents and all ticket windows, and also can be purchased through the Ventra mobile application, which can be downloaded in the App Store and Google Play.

“Metra will use every locomotive and railcar we have on hand to try to manage the huge number of fans traveling downtown, but I want to be clear – trains will be crowded and operating off-schedule,” Metra Executive Director/CEO Don Orseno said in a statement.

“If you plan to take Metra [Friday], we advise that you listen closely to platform announcements for the latest train information.”

The celebration will start about 10 a.m. when the official parade leaves Wrigley Field and heads for downtown Chicago. The route will travel along the city’s famed Michigan Avenue and then along Columbus Drive near Lake Mich-

11.04.16

igan before heading to Grant Park. Fans are encouraged to line the route.

Officials expect the Cubs motorcade to arrive in Grant Park around noon Friday, when there will be a rally at Hutchinson Field.

Service details and schedule changes will be posted on Metra’s website, metrarail.com.

Metra encourages travelers to be patient with trains, listen to platform announcements, telecommute, prepare for crowds and leave early for the parade.

“Tomorrow is expected to be the busiest day in Metra’s history,” Orseno said in the statement. “We ask all of our regular customers and the new customers we expect to see [Friday] to be patient and, most importantly, be safe.”

Nearly 85,000 special tickets were sold for the Blackhawks victory rallies in 2013 and 2015.

About 425,000 people rode Metra the day of the 2013 rally, the second-highest daily total in Metra’s history, according to the release.

Bikes and alcohol will not be allowed on any trains Friday, and quiet car rules will be suspended. Customers should not park illegally at train stations, as most lots are managed by municipalities and regulations will be enforced, according to the release.

Added security also will be present on trains, and riders are asked to limit the number of carry-on items.

TODAY’S TALKER ‘Bigs in Blue’ will try to bridge gap by pairing cops, youth

PHILADELPHIA – One of the country’s oldest mentoring organizations is starting a program pairing police with youth in an effort to address the fraught relationship between officers and the communities they serve.

Already operating in several of their affiliate branches, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America’s “Bigs in Blue” program is set to begin in January.

Officers will volunteer to serve as a “Big” for a child, interacting weekly for 30 minutes to an hour at the child’s school, although longer visits outside of a school setting may happen depend-

ing on the relationship. Child participants will be elementary or middle school age.

Big Brothers Big Sisters President Pam Iorio said expanding the program nationally stands to change perceptions for both police and children.

“Right now, there is an identifiable problem with poor relations between police and communities,” Iorio said. “This helps the police officer connect to the families they serve. They’re not going into a neighborhood to make an arrest; they’re going into a neighborhood to form a bond.

It helps that young person see the police officers as a friend.”

‘WE NEVER GAVE UP FAITH’ Crystal Lake, Woodstock residents celebrate Cubs’ World Series title in Cleveland

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com Crystal Lake resident Don Zeh went to five postseason baseball games and wore the same outfit every time – a Cubs hat, undershirt, jeans, socks, pins and his Ernie Banks jersey.

Apparently his superstition paid off, because the Cubs won all five games Zeh attended, including Game 7 of the World Series on Wednesday night in Cleveland.

Thursday afternoon, Zeh was emotional as he read a message his mother sent him after the game, saying he was a part of history.

“It was just an amazing experience we’ll probably never live again,” Zeh said.

Despite the roller coaster of a game,

“We kind of took over the place. ... I’ve never seen that kind of emotion from that many people in one place.”

Les Johnson

Woodstock resident and lifelong Cubs fan Zeh said he and his friends never doubted the Cubs.

“We never gave up faith,” Zeh said.

“There was never a point in time when we thought we were going to lose that baseball game.”

Zeh, 43, started watching the Cubs when he lived in Dallas, because their games were what was on TV when he came home from school. Another lifelong Cubs fan, 48-year-old Les Johnson

of Woodstock, went with Zeh to Games 6 and 7 of the World Series.

Johnson, a copy editor for Shaw Media, was driving home from Cleveland with Zeh on on Thursday afternoon. The two had slept for about three hours the night before, Johnson said.

Johnson said he and his friends stood for almost 90 percent of the game, and only left their seats during the brief rain delay.

“To me, it was one of the best games I’ve ever seen in my life,” Johnson said.

“And I’ve seen a lot of games.”

The amount of Cubs fans at Progressive Field was “amazing,” Johnson said, and even some Cleveland fans shook their hands after the game.

When the game ended and Cleveland fans cleared out, Johnson said he and other Cubs fans gathered near the field to celebrate, singing “Go Cubs Go.” “We kind of took over the place,” Johnson said. “... I’ve never seen that kind of emotion from that many people in one place.”

Although Zeh said being at the game was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, he thinks the Cubs will do it again.

“Lord hopes it’s not another 108 years,” Zeh said.

WOODSTOCK – People across the nation are lining up to get their kids an education like the one available in Woodstock District 200, a widely known language educator said Thursday.

Woodstock District 200 hosted its third annual dual language parent education night Thursday at Creekside Middle School. The event offered parents and students a chance to participate in multicultural activities and see class projects, hear live music and take part in a variety of different workshops and classes aimed at discussing the benefits and experiences of cultural immersion and dual language programs.

The district’s language program is a Spanish-English two-way immersion.

Students in the program study various subjects such as social studies or science in both languages in order to promote bilingualism and biliteracy. The program is fairly uncommon, said Kim Potowski, an author and professor of Hispanic linguistics in the Department of Hispanic and Italian studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

“There are parents knocking on doors to get into these across the country,” she said. “I think most recent estimates said there are about 1,000 to 2,000 schools like this nationwide, and there really should be more.”

Woodstock parent Natalie Gaudio-Fricano said she was excited to take advantage of the program when her kids enrolled. She has a kindergartner and second-grader in the dual language program.

“We think it’s important to learn a

Hundreds show up for the annual event, with attendance topping about 350 last year, said Keely Krueger, coordinator of the event and director of grants in the district’s language and

culture department.

A major benefit is for the families with children in the program to learn more about dual language education and research, she said.

“They’re learning about dual language education, so biliteracy and bilingualism,” she said. “Strategies to work on at home, transitions and what to expect in middle school and high school. There’s a variety.”

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – When a new development is built downtown or an empty building just sits there for years, it’s going to have an effect on the community. Whether it’s a positive or negative change, economic development expert Donovan Rypkema said Main Street organizations need to understand the costs of what’s happening downtown.

“These organizations should defend what they’re doing because they’re in the economic development business,” Rypkema said. “So they have to demonstrate to funders, merchants and property owners what they are doing is making a quantitative difference in the community.”

Rypkema led a workshop Thursday to teach community leaders from 14 states about the economic impact of real estate development in revitalization. The workshop, held at Crystal Lake City Hall, was part of Main Street America’s three-day event in the Chicago area.

“This event is important because it brings people together from all areas of the country to learn and work together to improve their own communities,” said Diana Kenney, Downtown Crystal Lake/Main Street executive director.

During the workshop, Rypkema talked about localizing the cost of an empty building and applying metrics for measuring the catalyst impact of a development project.

“I want community leaders to know how to quantify changes that could take place downtown,” Rypkema said.

Part of his discussion included telling his listeners about the U.S. Census Bureau’s consumer expenditure survey and why they should be using it. “[The consumer expenditure survey] is your best friend,” Rypkema

Economic development expert Donovan Rypkema gives a presentation to community leaders from 14 states about the economic impact of real estate development in revitalization Thursday at Crystal Lake City Hall, 100 W. Woodstock St. said. “This is a huge survey database, and one great thing that it does is it tracks spending rather than earnings.”

Rypkema also went over the steps of how to determine an empty building’s cost of expenditures.

“Start by looking at the annual rent, then the volume estimated based on rent,” Rypkema said.

After the presentation, the community leaders were granted time to check out downtown Crystal Lake’s

shops and restaurants.

“We were eager to partner with the Downtown Crystal Lake Association after learning about all that they do,” said Patrice Frey, president and CEO of the National Main Street Center, which launched the Main Street America program in 2015.

The workshop will continue Friday with its third session taking place in Chicago’s Hyde Park neighborhood.

Ex-Prairie Grove policeman acquitted of DUI, official misconduct from ’15 crash

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com

end of his shift and was going to fill up his squad car with gasoline when he approached the stop sign at the intersection. At that point he went to press on the brakes and it hit the floor causing him to drive into the utility pole, Baez said.

Prosecutors said his statements were not consistent with testimony that officers smelled alcohol on his breath 11 or 12 hours later.

They also said Baez told police after completing the field sobriety tests, “Those glasses of eggnog must have been bigger than I thought.”

After weighing evidence and arguments presented by the state and defense, Feetterer said the defendant’s ability to pass two field sobriety tests, his cooperation through-

out the entire process and the testimony of Martin Pireh, a firefighter/paramedic with the Crystal Lake Fire Rescue Department, raised reasonable doubt of impairment.

Pireh testified that he responded to the scene and spent about 12 to 15 minutes with the defendant to evaluate if he had sustained any injuries. During that time, he said he did not detect any signs of intoxication.

Feetterer also said the court needed evidence from a mechanic or other expert on the nature of the brakes in the squad car in order to find the defendant guilty of the stop sign charge, and that was not presented by the state.

• Friday, November 4, 2016

WOODSTOCK – An ex-Prairie Grove police officer was acquitted Thursday of DUI and official misconduct charges stemming from a 2015 on-duty crash.

McHenry County Judge Michael Feetterer returned a not guilty verdict on all charges after the two-day bench trial of Oscar Baez.

Baez, of Bensenville, was charged Nov. 29, 2015, with driving under the influence and cited for disregarding a stop sign after prosecutors said he drove his squad car off the road into a utility pole on Gracy Road and Route 31. He was later indicted on one count of official misconduct,

a Class 3 felony.

Prosecutors argued that Baez was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the crash. Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs said officers detected the smell of alcohol on Baez’s breath when they were speaking with him after responding to the crash. Combs also said Baez failed one of the most “scientifically accurate” field sobriety tests.

Baez also refused blood and urine tests.

Baez said he told police officers at the scene that he had two half-full glasses of eggnog about four hours before his scheduled 3 p.m. shift because he “wanted to taste it,” but he doesn’t usually drink alcohol.

He testified that he was near the

CRYSTAL LAKE – Three more businesses were awarded video gambling permits by the City Council, bringing the number to 10 since the council repealed its ban.

In three separate 4-2 votes, council members on Tuesday granted permits to Finn McCool’s, Coleman’s Crystal Lake Bar and Grill and Williams Street Tap. The permits were the first issued by the city since the council at a previous meeting tightened the fledgling ordinance to clearly mandate that a wall or partition separate the machines from other patrons.

All three were approved without comment. The two opposing votes came from council members Cathy Ferguson and Brett Hopkins, who oppose video gambling.

The City Council in April reversed its ban on video gambling and enacted a tougher compromise ordinance crafted with the help of local businesses that argued that the city’s ban put them at a

competitive disadvantage.

The city’s ordinance allows local establishments that serve liquor on the premises to have up to three machines, fewer than the five allowed under state law. Establishments cannot have exterior signage advertising video gambling, and neither interior signs nor the machines themselves can be visible from the outside.

The city charges two annual fees totaling $1,100, plus a $500 fee per machine, and applicants also must sign an agreement promising not to go to court to get the city’s ordinance softened.

Companies that provide and service the machines likewise must pay a $1,000 annual fee to do business in the city.

Illinois legalized video gambling in 2009 to help generate revenue to pay off the bonds for a $31 billion capital plan, although the machines didn’t start appearing in local establishments until late 2012. The state gets 30 percent of the proceeds, 5 percent of which goes to the city. The remaining 70 percent of the profit is split between the machine owner and each establishment.

CHICAGO – He’s the stroke survivor who returned to Washington after a year of rehab determined to put people before his party. She’s the war hero who lost both legs in the Iraq War, then turned to fighting for Illinois families.

Making their final push for voters to send them to the U.S. Senate, Republican Sen. Mark Kirk and Democratic Rep. Tammy Duckworth are returning to the personal stories that had their contest shaping up early on as one the most compelling in the country.

Both candidates are disabled and have triumphed over adversity. But those story lines took a back seat for much of the race as Kirk went on the attack against Duckworth, who is heavily favored to win Tuesday.

Kirk ran multiple ads ripping Duckworth’s record as director of the Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs.

He also criticized her as ineffective in Congress and repeatedly tried to link her to former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who appointed Duckworth to the state post and now is in prison.

Duckworth hit back with ads saying Kirk lied about his own military experience and criticized him for a series of verbal gaffes.

At a debate last week, he mocked Duckworth’s immigrant background

Governor gives $1M to GOP comptroller candidate

CHICAGO – Gov. Bruce Rauner has given $1 million of his own money to Republican incumbent Leslie Munger’s bid for Illinois comptroller.

State records this week showed the contribution that came from the former venture capitalist and his wife, Diana Rauner.

Rauner appointed Munger to the post last year after Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka’s death. Tuesday’s special election determines who finishes the term.

and her family’s military service by saying he’d forgotten her “parents came all the way from Thailand to serve George Washington.” He apologized the next day but lost some key endorsements and faced criticism that his remarks were racist.

Kirk previously inflicted damage on his campaign with other controversial comments, including calling an unmarried senator a “bro with no ho.”

With Election Day approaching,

Kirk is circling back to a positive ad about his stroke and recovery that he ran early in the election cycle. In it, he recounts being in an ambulance, holding a paramedic’s hand and thinking it was “the last human being I would ever touch.”

On Sunday, Kirk plans to join fellow stroke survivors in climbing the stairs of Chicago’s Willis Tower – something he’s done four times since his 2012 stroke. Kirk said he sees stair

The four-way race already has seen massive fundraising, largely from a Rauner campaign fund and businessmen who support Rauner.

CHICAGO – Police said three people were killed and a fourth critically wounded in a Chicago shooting being investigated as a possible domestic incident.

Police said the shooting

happened about 12:10 a.m.

Thursday in the South Chicago neighborhood, killing two women and a 16-year-old boy.

Police said a woman who was shot in the chest was taken to a hospital, where she was listed in critical condition.

Details about the circumstances of the shooting were not immediately available.

Climatologists: Oct. seventh warmest on record in Illinois

CHAMPAIGN – Climatologists said the average statewide temperature in Illinois last month was the seventh warmest October on record.

Illinois State Water Survey reported Wednesday that the average temperature for October was 59.8 degrees, 5.4 degrees above normal. The warmest

climbing as a metaphor for overcoming challenges; Sunday’s event benefits the rehabilitation hospital where the first-term senator learned to walk and talk again.

“Every Illinois family has steps to climb,” Kirk said. “I want to serve as the inspiration for over 300,000 stroke survivors in Illinois that while their lives have changed, recovery is achievable and they must never give up.”

Duckworth, a second-term congresswoman, is running a final ad that references the day the helicopter she was co-piloting was shot down in Iraq in 2004. In the statewide ad, Duckworth said she knows what it’s like “to fight for your life behind enemy lines” and to not be left behind.

“If you elect me to the Senate, I’ll be guided by the simple notion that if you don’t give up on yourself, America won’t give up on you,” she said.

Duckworth entered the race with some big advantages. Illinois is a reliably Democratic state – even more so in presidential election years, and Duckworth raised millions more for what her party saw as the top opportunity to pick up a seat and potentially retake control of the Senate.

Kirk reported having just $576,000 cash on hand as of Oct. 19, while Duckworth had about $2.5 million, according to a pre-election campaign finance filing.

October was in 1963, when the average hit 63.6 degrees.

The report also said Illinois has experienced above-normal temperatures in nine out of the 10 months of 2016.

The average temperature for the period from January through October was 58 degrees, 2.5 degrees above normal. That also makes it the fourth warmest January through October in Illinois on record. The warmest was in 2012, when the average was 59.1 degrees.

Nelson Algren museum is planned in beach community

GARY, Ind. – A museum dedicated to Nelson Algren is planned in the northwest Indi-

ana beach community where the late Chicago author had a cottage.

The Times reported that the Nelson Algren Society of Miller Beach plans to display the author’s desk, chair and typewriter. Organizers are looking for other Algren memorabilia.

Algren won the first National Book Award in fiction in 1950 for “The Man with the Golden Arm.” The novel about a card dealer with a morphine habit is set in Chicago and was made into a movie starring Frank Sinatra.

The Algren Society plans to open the museum in March of next year on the late author’s birthday. The Miller neighborhood already has a small park and an annual festival dedicated to Algren, who died in 1981.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Casino: Woman shown $43M jackpot owed $2.25

NEW YORK – A woman who appeared to win a life-changing $42.9 million jackpot at a New York City casino is threatening to sue after being told the big payout she was shown was simply the result of a malfunction.

Katrina Bookman was playing the penny slot machine at Resorts World Casino in August when it displayed a message that read, “Printing Cash Ticket. $42,949,642.76.” She even took a selfie next to the screen to celebrate. But when Bookman tried to collect, the casino told her it was all a big mistake and she was only owed the $2.25 balance she had on the machine.

“Machine malfunctions are rare, and we would like to extend our apologies to Ms. Bookman for any inconvenience this may have caused,” the casino said in a statement.

The New York State Gaming Commission investigated and said the bogus payout was “clearly a display malfunction.”

The machine was taken out of service, repaired and put back a day later, the commission said.

No verdict in Day 4 of bridge deliberations

NEWARK, N.J. – A federal jury went home Thursday without reaching a verdict in the George Washington Bridge lane-closing trial of two former allies of Re-

publican Gov. Chris Christie as defense attorneys sought a mistrial and to have some evidence removed from consideration.

Four days into deliberations, the jury left the courthouse without sending any questions to the judge. That was in contrast to Tuesday’s session, when they raised several questions about the counts in the indictment against Bridget Kelly and Bill Baroni.

Kelly, Christie’s former deputy chief of staff, and Baroni, his top appointee to the bridge authority, are charged with scheming to use traffic jams to punish a Democratic mayor who didn’t endorse Christie in 2013.

Brexit hits speed bump after court ruling

LONDON –Britain’s plans to leave the European Union hit a large speed bump Thursday, as the High Court ruled that the government can’t start exit negotiations without a vote in Parliament.

The judgment deepened Britain’s divide over Europe, raising hopes among pro-EU politicians that they can soften the terms of the U.K.’s withdrawal from the bloc. “Leave” campaigners said any attempt to do that would be a betrayal of voters’ decision.

The government immediately said it would ask the Supreme Court to overturn the ruling.

Obama on campaign: This isn’t ‘Survivor’ The ASSOCIATED PRESS

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Donald Trump warned Thursday that a cloud of investigation would follow Hillary Clinton into the White House, evoking the bitter impeachment battle of the 1990s in a closing campaign argument meant to bring wayward Republicans home. Clinton and her allies, led by President Barack Obama, told voters to get serious about the dangers of Trump.

As polls show Trump closing in on Clinton in key battleground states, her campaign is rushing to shore up support in some long-standing Democratic strongholds.

That includes the campaign’s Michigan firewall, a remarkable situation for a candidate who looked to be cruising to an easy win just a week ago.

Clinton’s shrunken lead has given Trump’s campaign a glimmer of hope, one he’s trying to broaden into a breakthrough before time runs out. That means zeroing in on questions of Clinton’s trustworthiness and a new FBI review of an aide’s emails.

The attack is aimed at appealing to moderate Republicans and independents who have been the holdouts of his campaign, turned off by his behavior but equally repelled by the possible return of the Clintons.

“Here we go again with the Clintons – you remember the impeachment and the problems,” Trump said Thursday at a rally in Jacksonville.

“That’s not what we need in our country, folks. We need someone who is ready to go to work.”

Clinton and allies, meanwhile, are seeking to keep the spotlight on Trump, charging that his disparaging comments about women and minorities, and his temperament make him unfit for office.

President Barack Obama speaks at a campaign rally Thursday for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville, Fla. “He has spent this entire campaign offering a dog whistle to his most hateful supporters,” Clinton said, singling out Trump’s endorsement from the official newspaper of the Ku Klux Klan and noting that he has retweeted messages from white supremacists.

“This has never happened to a nominee of a major party,” Clinton said.

“If Donald Trump were to win this election, we would have a commander in chief who is completely out of his depth and whose ideas are incredibly dangerous,” she said at Pitt Community College outside of Greenville, North Carolina. Clinton was slated to campaign later Thursday with former primary opponent Sen. Bernie Sanders and pop star Pharrell Williams in Raleigh.

Trump’s path to victory remains narrow. He must win Florida to win the White House, no easy feat. Still, his campaign has been buoyed by tightening polls there and in other key battlegrounds, as well as by signs that African-American turnout for Clinton may be lagging.

Clinton enlisted Obama’s help urging those voters to

the polls and lighting a fire under other Democrats, particularly young people, who share some of the wariness about Clinton. Speaking to students at Florida International University in Miami, Obama told voters now was the time to get serious about the choice.

“This isn’t a joke. This isn’t ‘Survivor.’ This isn’t ‘The Bachelorette.’ ” he said, taunting the former reality-TV star. “This counts.”

Relishing one of his last turns on the campaign stage as president, Obama repeatedly returned to his new campaign catchphrase capturing his disbelief in the unpredictable race to replace him.

“C’mon, man,” he said, to cheers.

Obama has been trying to bait Republican into veering off message – counting on Trump not to have the discipline or the ground game to capitalize on a late surge.

But the famously unconventional Trump has been hewing closer to convention, running some upbeat ads, bringing out his wife for a rare campaign appearance and even talking publicly about trying not to get distracted.

DES MOINES, Iowa – An Iowa man jailed Thursday in the killings of two police officers was facing intense money problems, had been found by a judge to hit and financially exploit his mother and was ordered to move out of her basement hours before the shootings.

Scott Michael Greene, 46, was arrested Thursday afternoon after detectives questioned him at the Des Moines police station. Greene was secured with the handcuffs that had belonged to the patrolmen who were killed in ambush-style attacks, Des Moines Sgt. Anthony Beminio and Urbandale officer Justin Martin, and was later booked into the county jail.

Greene was charged with two counts of first-degree murder. If convicted, he would receive an automatic sentence of life in prison without parole. A statement from Des Moines police said the investigation has produced probable cause to support the charges.

Police said earlier Thursday that a search dog recovered a high-powered rifle in a wooded area that they believe Greene used to fire on the officers.

Greene had been hospitalized for treatment of a pre-existing medical condition after his surrender Wednesday

been living in a basement bedroom, before Nov. 6 and to stay away from the home for a year.

Patricia Greene had applied for the restraining order Oct. 19, two days after she was arrested and charged with striking her son in the face during an altercation that he had recorded with his cellphone. She wrote in the application that she believed her son “set me up to get me in trouble.” Patricia Greene wrote that while she was in jail, Scott Greene told one of her friends that Patricia Greene needed to give him $20,000 and that if his mother paid, “he would move and not bother” her again.

Patricia Greene also wrote that her son had sent an acquaintance “a bunch of rambling, offensive” text messages, warned that he would no longer take care of her cat and was going through her personal belongings. She said her son had subjected her to mental, emotional and financial abuse.

A temporary protective order was issued Oct. 20. Schemmel issued the permanent order during Tuesday’s hearing, where it was served on Scott Greene. The order, which warned that any violations would lead to his arrest, also directed Greene to return $10,000 to his mother and to not take any of her assets.

OUR VIEW

Great end to great season

It’s a great day for a parade.

When the World Series began Oct. 25, we said it wasn’t enough just to be there. We wanted it all.

After waiting 108 years, it seemed only fitting that Cubs fans would have to endure the suspense and drama of a seven-game series, with the last game a 10-inning, emotional roller-coaster that included a 17-minute rain delay.

But when the game finally ended, so too did all the phony-baloney talk about curses and chokes, of the Cubs being lovable losers whose fans always wait till next year. Next year is here.

All season, this Cubs team was amazing. It had some of the game’s top hitters in first baseman Anthony Rizzo and third baseman Kris Bryant, the likely NL MVP. It had some of its best pitchers in Jon Lester, Jake Arrieta and Kyle Hendricks. It had some players with great stories, from Kyle Schwarber’s rushed return from knee surgery to play in the series, to “Grandpa” David Ross, the 39-year-old catcher who homered in Game 7, the last of his career.

The Cubs clearly were baseball’s best squad from start to finish, winning 103 regular-season games and winning the NL Central Division by a jaw-dropping 17½ games. Although there was little doubt the Cubs would win their division during the regular season, these playoffs provided enough drama to last us through the long winter ahead.

The Cubs thrilled us with a four-run, ninth-inning comeback to vanquish San Francisco in a National League Division Series.

After being shut out in back-to-back games against the Los Angeles Dodgers, they roared back and won the National League pennant by roughing up Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw in that series’ decisive sixth game.

The Cleveland Indians provided the toughest challenge. They had plowed through the American League playoffs with a lights-out bullpen, and had a tradition of futility that rivaled the Cubs’ – it’s now 68 years and counting. They had the Cubs on the ropes with a 3-1 series lead, but the Cubs refused to quit.

We send our condolences to Cleveland – if anyone can relate to how you feel, it’s Cubs fans.

But someone had to lose this series as certainly as someone had to win it, and 108 years of misery and near-misses was more than anyone should be expected to endure.

Today, the Cubs are World Series champions, and their fans feel a joy that they’ve never experienced before, an emotion that they’ll get to pour out when the team parades through Chicago before a noon rally in Grant Park.

What a great way to close a remarkable season.

Go Cubs go!

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

For police, hesitation can be deadly The fatal Oct. 4 shooting of 26-year-old Zachary Sutton by two Springdale, Arkansas, police officers was tragic. It wasn’t the first time they had pulled over Sutton, who was riding a scooter.

One of the officers can be heard on video of the incident explaining why. “I’ve told you three times I know for sure in less than 10 days.

You can’t be driving any motorized vehicle, man. Your license is suspended for DWI,” one officer tells Sutton.

In seconds, the “routine” traffic stop turns into a life-and-death moment. Sutton draws a handgun and fires toward the officers. He runs. This is the moment critics of some officer-involved shootings suggest the officers should aim to wound. It seems they’ve watched too many old westerns in which the good guy shoots, then (ding!) the bad guy’s gun flies out of his hand. It’s a ludicrous expectation.

Hitting anything in such adrenaline-inducing moments is

difficult. Consider this: The two officers, faced with a man who fired on them and presented a threat to the community, fired 12 bullets in just seconds. Sutton died of a single gunshot wound.

Washington County Prosecutor Matt Durrett, using information gathered by investigators, said he considered the officers’ actions justified.

For those who cared about Sutton, our condolences. His death is a horrible outcome.

But we’re glad those officers were able to go home that night.

If anyone has ever wondered why officers need to always be on guard, watch the video of Zachary Sutton’s life-ending behavior. Why draw the weapon? What made the potential for death an acceptable risk? We’ll never know what other violence was avoided because these officers were out protecting the community they serve.

Does one “good” shooting excuse other officer-involved

shootings with more dubious justifications? Not at all. A shooting is either justified according to law and departmental policy or it’s not. Every shooting needs a thorough, independent review.

But officers also deserve a benefit of a doubt in the court of public opinion until all the information has been evaluated. Too often in recent years we’ve seen a rush to judgment and demands for firings and prosecutions based on nothing but raw emotion.

A female Chicago officer was savagely beaten, to unconsciousness, in early October. She didn’t draw her weapon although she feared for her life. Why? Because she was afraid of the media attention and criticism for her family and her agency if she shot her attacker.

How many officers should communities be willing to lose to such hesitation in the midst of violence? None should be the answer.

Your best interests

To the Editor: The McHenry County Board needs responsible, accountable members like Diane Johnson. She is dedicated and thoughtful.

She will do the research, evaluate the facts and make decisions that make sense for all of us.

The current County Board is made up of 24 Republicans, which clearly is not representative of this county or working for the best interests of all residents. District 3 incumbent candidate Mike Walkup also apparently thinks it’s a good idea to run for two positions on the board, chairman and a district representative. Although this may be legal, I don’t believe that is what the voters had in mind when they decided they wanted a countywide elected chairman.

VIEWS Austin Berg There are plenty of reasons to vote for this amendment.

Construction unions and contractors say it will ensure the safety of Illinois roads. State politicians passed the ballot question through the General Assembly almost unanimously, a rare occurrence given the gridlock in Springfield. Proponents point to what has happened to the state’s road fund over the past decade. Over that time, lawmakers diverted more than $6 billion from that fund to plug budget holes.

There are plenty of reasons to vote against this amendment as well.

Many people bristle at the idea of enshrining spending priorities in the state’s constitution. Look at what’s happened to Illinois’ constitutionally backed pension scheme, after all. The Illinois Supreme Court has ruled that the state constitution’s pension-protection clause prohibits altering even the unearned pension benefits of current government workers.

The flexibility to use these large, transportation-related revenue sources

sure there are checks and balances created that have been missing from county government for too long. Vote for your best interests and vote for Diane Johnson.

McHenry County values

To the Editor: A recent letter asked voters to support all Republican candidates to protect the Republican Party and its values. Trump’s values appear to be to make America grope again. Catchy, but illegal.

Maybe the writer meant former Speaker Dennis Hastert’s values of sexually molesting young boys then covering it up with illegal hush money.

Perhaps the writer was referring to two-timing candidate Mike Walkup running for two different positions.

Blindly voting for a party label is a recipe for disaster. With all 24 members of the County Board Republican, McHenry County has some of the highest property taxes in the country. Most of these Republicans ripped off the taxpayers by receiving pensions that they were not entitled to.

for other emergencies is crucial, some say.

There’s no clear-cut answer. And opinions have not splintered along partisan lines.

But either way Illinoisans vote, they lose. Why? Because the most important questions facing the state didn’t make it on the ballot.

Lawmakers have introduced more than 90 distinct constitutional amendments in Springfield since 2015. The lockbox is the only one that made it to ballots.

Many amendments were killed in House Speaker Mike Madigan’s Rules Committee. The frequency at which good ideas are muzzled in this committee without a single word of public debate is depressing. If those reams of discarded paper could serve as pavement, Illinoisans wouldn’t need to spend much on new roads.

When lawmakers refuse to put change on the ballot, citizens take matters into their own hands.

More than a half-million Illinoisans signed a petition to reduce politicians’ influence in drawing legislative maps – a game Madigan has been more adept at playing than any politician in state history.

But a lawyer with close ties to the speaker successfully sued to keep that

measure off the ballot.

Illinois’ broken mapmaking system is part of the reason why too many voters won’t just be lacking an important choice in ballot measures, but in candidates as well. Tortured district lines have led to 60 percent of state legislative races being uncontested this year.

In the history of the state, voters have only once succeeded in putting a binding initiative on an Illinois ballot.

The 1980 cutback amendment passed overwhelmingly, eliminating a few dozen lawmakers from the House of Representatives and helping Madigan consolidate power as speaker when his peers first elected him to that office in 1983.

Significant change arising from a statewide ballot question is a long shot.

Especially with Madigan in charge.

Until leaders in the General Assembly muster the courage to give voters a voice on big issues, don’t expect much more than a lockbox.

Temperature all right?

Something to drink?

And how is your salmon this evening?

On a sinking Titanic, these are not pressing questions.

And in Illinois, the lone ballot measure before voters statewide on Nov. 8 has nothing to do with the state’s dismal economic climate.

It has nothing to do with the massive pension costs crowding out an ever-larger share of essential state services.

It does nothing to address the nation’s highest property taxes, which are forcing families from their homes.

And two of the most popular political ideas in the state, term limits and redistricting reform, are nowhere to be found.

Nope, Illinoisans get the “lockbox amendment.” And nothing else – save for the names of politicians running for office.

The lockbox amendment is fairly straightforward.

Voters will choose whether they want to amend the state’s constitution to say all state revenues that come from transportation – sources include taxes and fees on driver’s licenses, motor fuel and vehicle registration – must go only to fund transportation initiatives.

Automated cars could threaten jobs of drivers

By PAUL WISEMAN and JOE MANDAK The Associated Press

Ronald De Feo has watched robots take factory jobs for years. Now he sees them threatening a new class of worker: people who drive for a living.

“I am in Pittsburgh; it’s a test market for Uber’s autonomous vehicle,” said De Feo, CEO of the industrial materials firm Kennametal. “We see all these (automated) Ubers running around the streets of Pittsburgh, a confusing and difficult place to navigate.

If they can make that work, what do you think happens to the job of being a taxi driver?”

Computer scientists and economists say the threat isn’t merely theoretical: Automated cars pose an existential threat to the many Americans who drive for a living: 2.9 million truckers and delivery drivers, 674,000 bus drivers, 181,000 cab drivers and chauffeurs.

The big question is how long it will take auto and tech companies to clear the technical hurdles to turning the streets over to driverless cars.

“I don’t see herds of robotic trucks running down the highway in the next few years,” said Vern Meyerotto, a 61-year-old truck driver in Denver.

“There’s an awful lot of development that needs to be done on it.”

Meyerotto, who’s been driving since 2007, points to the self-driving Tesla Model S car that crashed in May, killing the driver, after the car’s cameras failed to detect a tractor-trailer crossing its path. He doesn’t expect to see robotic trucks doing much driving

Employees stand next to self-driving, big-rig trucks during a demonstration Aug. 18 at the Otto headquarters in San Francisco. Uber’s self-driving startup Otto developed technology allowing big rigs to drive themselves. After taking millions of factory jobs, robots could be coming for a new class of worker: people who drive for a living. for 10 or 15 more years.

But the quick development of driverless cars has caught economists by surprise.

Assessing which jobs were vulnerable to robots in a 2004 book, economists Frank Levy of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Richard Murnane of Harvard University reckoned that truck drivers were safe. Surely, a machine couldn’t negotiate rush-hour traffic without a helping human hand.

Six years later, Google’s automated cars were on the road, crossing the Golden Gate Bridge, circling Lake

Tahoe and cruising down Hollywood Boulevard.

Now, companies from Ford to Tesla to Uber are investing in automated car technology.

“The next big wave of automation will apply to driving,” said Moshe Vardi, a computer scientist at Rice University.

Vardi suspects that truck drivers will be the first victims. Automated trucks can be programmed to go from one warehouse to another, plying express lanes reserved for trucks that let them avoid interacting with human

drivers.

Vardi notes that vulnerable truckers have much in common with the factory workers who’ve been ousted by machines over the past several decades: They tend to be white men, middle-aged or older, with high school-only educations – the people who’ve formed the core support for Donald Trump.

“These things do not happen without political consequences,” Vardi said.

Uber, which has been testing driverless taxis in Pittsburgh, disputes the notion that automated cars will cost the economy jobs.

“Technology also creates new work opportunities while disrupting existing ones,” Travis Kalanick, Uber’s CEO, and Anthony Levandowski, its vice president for self-driving technology, said in a statement.

For example: “Self-driving Ubers will be on the road 24 hours a day, which means they will need a lot more human maintenance.”

A 25-year veteran cabbie who goes

by A. Tucker was sitting in his Peoples Cab outside the Wyndham Grand Hotel in Pittsburgh. He worked in a Jones & Laughlin steel mill for six years before he was laid off and started driving a cab. He said he fears that driverless cars will eventually compete with guys like him.

“If you flip the coin to the other side, it was like the steel industry,” Tucker said. “We thought we would never lose our jobs to automation. But we lost our jobs, and many of us are driving cabs now.”

Garth Brooks accepts the award for entertainer of the year Wednesday at the 50th annual CMA Awards at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn.

and Kacey Musgraves, who all sang a rousing rendition of “I Will Always Love You.” “I would have cried, but I didn’t want to mess up my eyelashes,” said Parton, sporting a bright yellow dress.

Chris Stapleton, who won big at last year’s show, was the night’s top winner with two: He took home male vocalist and music video of the year.

“What a wonderful night ... I’ve cried just watching everybody,” said Stapleton, who walked into the show as the top nominee along with Eric Church and newcomer Maren Morris.

Underwood won female vocalist of the year, ending Lambert’s six-year consecutive winning streak since 2010.

“Glory to God, thank you Jesus,” said a teary Underwood, who also thanked her husband and son.

Church won album of the year for “Mr. Misunderstood,” and Morris picked up new artist of the year.

“Last year, I sat across the street at a bar and watched this show. I never thought as a songwriter I’d be standing here today,” she said.

A number of celebrities were in the audience and presented awards, including Matthew McConaughey, Peyton Manning, Jennifer Garner, Olivia Newton-John, Nicole Kidman, Lily Tomlin, Sharon Stone and the Final Five Olympic gymnasts: Simone Biles, Aly Raisman, Gabby Douglas, Laurie Hernandez and Madison Kocian.

Garth Brooks, who lost entertainer of the year at last year’s Country Music Association Awards when he returned to music after a 13-year break, won the top prize at the show Wednesday, where Beyonce and the Dixie Chicks’ surprise duet performance was met with love and hate.

Brooks beat out Carrie Underwood, Chris Stapleton, Keith Urban and last year’s winner, Luke Bryan.

“We are so damn lucky to part of this thing called country music,” Brooks yelled loudly at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.

Taylor Swift presented Brooks the award, but she wasn’t the only pop star in the building: Beyonce sang her twangy song “Daddy Lessons” on a night celebrating the CMA Awards’ 50th anniversary. It was the first time Beyonce, a Houston native, performed at the country awards show. The performance also marked a return for the Dixie Chicks, who hadn’t attended the CMA Awards in some time.

“Everybody get on your feet. Put your hands together,” Beyonce told the crowd.

The diva sported a sheer champagne-colored dress that plunged in the center and layered pearls around her neck. Faith Hill sang along, Trisha Yearwood clapped and Miranda Lambert moved side to side during the song, which the Dixie Chicks have also covered at their live shows.

Beyonce and the trio’s appearance, though, wasn’t cheered by everyone: On social media, some fans tweeted angrily about the performance – some country music fans have disliked Dixie Chicks since band member Natalie Maines criticized former U.S. President George W. Bush over a decade ago.

The night featured a number of other memorable performances, too: A mix of classic and contemporary country stars kicked off the show with 12 performances to celebrate its milestone anniversary, which included Randy Travis, Vince Gill, Charley Pride, Roy Clark, Alabama, Charlie Daniels, Ricky Skaggs, Alan Jackson, Dwight Yoakam and Merle Haggard’s youngest son, Ben. Dolly Parton, who earned the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award, was honored by Reba, Underwood, Martina McBride, Jennifer Nettles

PARENTING

Looking to the

FUTURE

Columnist worries what’s ahead for child with Down syndrome, finds reassurance from son

By CHARLES MOSS The Washington Post

My 4-year-old son Emmett is adorable. I know, parents say that about their children all the time. But in Emmett’s case, he really is. Strangers attest to it at Costco and Publix and at our local children’s museum.

Even Mayim Bialik, of “Blossom” and “The Big Bang Theory,” risked her anonymity at a Legoland in Atlanta to tell us how cute Emmett is.

Of course, they are right.

Emmett also has Down syndrome.

Because of the extra copy of chromosome 21, he has a few physical characteristics that define his condition. He has an enlarged tongue, which, in turn, forces him to keep his mouth open in a resting position most of the time. A lot of the photos we have of Emmett capture him in this position, with his tongue sticking out ever so slightly. This, in combination with his flattened facial features, low muscle tone, small stature and large, upward-slanted eyes are what make people notice him.

His outgoing, energetic and strong-willed personality, however, are what endear him to people.

He smiles more than any person I’ve ever met. And these aren’t just your average small smiles – halfcurled, closed lips. In fact, to call them smiles would be wrong because they are much more than that. They are, by all accounts, insanely huge, contagious bouts of laughter and screams of joy that are unable to be contained in just the shell of a smile.

The author with his wife, Vanessa, and their sons, Emmett (left) and Noah.

But it won’t always be like this.

What people see right now – myself included – is an adorable little boy with Down syndrome. He knows no strangers, is affectionate (sometimes overly so), and his inability to enunciate properly is cute and sometimes encouraged.

But what happens when he grows up, when he becomes a man? What happens when he still has trouble speaking, when his looks no longer are considered adorable but are seen as ugly, because he may not look like everyone else?

What happens when Emmett has trouble holding down a job or finishing school or living independently from us? What happens when he becomes an adult and he still has a personality equivalent to that of an 8- or 9-year-old?

This is my fear.

When he is an adult, Emmett no longer will be able to play the cute card. His world will be a much more difficult place. He will be looked down on, made fun of and bullied.

At the same time, he will be coddled, felt sorry for and allowed to take shortcuts because of his looks and lower-than-average-intelligence. And he may allow his Down syndrome to define who he is.

Sometimes, as I watch Emmett

“My wife, Vanessa, thinks I worry too much.

She’s right. But whether we want to think about it or not, Emmett has a rough road ahead.”

struggle to communicate with us, trying to find a way to express what he’s saying in sign language or with other physical movements, or trying over and over again to pronounce the word he’s trying to say, but we’re left clueless, I’ve felt my eyes well up because we are just starting to experience what life might be like for him as he gets older.

A few weeks ago, I picked Emmett’s older brother up from after-school care and I saw a girl, no older than 11 or 12, sitting by herself in the cafeteria, among throngs of other children playing in groups – joking, laughing and enjoying each other’s company. Though this girl seemed to be perfectly fine sitting by herself, I thought about Emmett and how one day, most likely soon, this might be him.

I think about scenarios like this all the time. My wife, Vanessa, thinks I worry too much. She’s right.

But whether we want to think about it or not, Emmett has a rough road ahead.

Just like my other son Noah, I don’t know what to expect regarding Emmett’s future. But I know the more research I do, the more his future will begin to be defined.

Because, subconsciously, I will start treating him accordingly, letting the books and articles I read dictate what his future will look like.

Instead of treating him like his older brother, I will begin to treat him like someone who can’t do the things other kids can do. I will start to treat him as someone with Down

syndrome.

And that scares me to death.

A few weeks ago, I watched Emmett climb up the ladder of a bouncy house. At first, he struggled with how to tackle it because he was too small. He reached his hand out for my help, pleading, “Daddy, Daddy.”

Initially, I reacted. I tried to climb into the bouncy house to help him, to push him up from his little behind, so the kids lined up behind him wouldn’t have to wait any longer.

But then I noticed he was climbing the ladder on his own. He had discovered another way to climb it, his own way. And once he found his traction, boy, was he fast.

I know Emmett always will have a little extra help in his life. I know there will be things that he just won’t be able to do because, well, he’s human. His Down syndrome will play into how he’s treated as an adult, what kinds of jobs he’ll have and his relationships. His quality of life will be different from his brother’s.

But as I think about little Emmett climbing up that bouncy house ladder, it gives me comfort to know he won’t allow his Down syndrome to define who he is as a person and how he lives his life. He’ll find a way to get around it.

to capture the moment, I’d missed the details that told the story.

And so I’ve vowed to put my camera away going forward. I’d rather experience my daughter’s spring concert than photograph it. I’d rather sing “Happy Birthday” to my son and enjoy the smiles on his classmates’ faces as they feast on cupcakes than watch the festivities through a screen. Because every ounce of energy I put into trying to get the “perfect shot” – into trying to zoom the camera just right, or get the best lighting or the right angle – is energy I’m not focusing on the present moment. And as my children grow older, I’m realizing these are moments I’ll never get back.

We tell ourselves a picture lasts forever, that nothing is more important than preserving our memories. In reality, a photograph of my daughter’s school play may or may not be meaningful to me one day. But being fully immersed in her performance while it’s happening will mean something to both of us right now. Otherwise I might miss her hesitation as she steps onto the stage, blushing as she spots Mommy and Daddy in the audience.

Or a classmate’s admiring eyes on her as he pretends to rake construction-paper leaves. Or my husband’s nervous

breathing as he anxiously awaits the line they spent all night rehearsing.

There’s a bigger picture in these moments, and it’s not inside my iPhone screen.

Sure, when my daughter dresses up for a ceremony, or my son wears a “scary dragon” for Halloween, that’s something worth preserving. But a few photographs before and after the event will suffice – don’t need to follow them around like the paparazzi at the expense of their enjoyment and mine. And, frankly, I don’t wish to join the wall of parents surrounding the stage, blocking everyone’s view in an attempt to get the perfect shot, barking at any hapless bystander who gets in their way. Because at some point, taking photos becomes just another competitive sport in the high-pressure, high-stakes world of parenting. Get closer. Take more. Share faster. Can’t we all just sit down and enjoy the show?

Because in life, sometimes the most memorable moments happen offscreen. And I’m done missing them.

Bull Valley Dentistry Talks about Dental Implants SPONSORED BY

Bull Valley Dentistry places the most up-to-date dental implants, and Dr. Dano is proud to help his patients find solutions to missing teeth. Dental implants bring naturally beautiful confident smiles to patients.

If you have experienced tooth loss, you are not alone.

A dental implant is a small titanium screw which is surgically placed in the upper or lower jaw bone. After a few months this screw integrates into the body permanently and becomes part of the patient’s anatomy. The implant replaces the root of the missing tooth, providing an anchor for the new tooth/teeth.

The result is a natural appearance that is intended to be permanent.

Implant dentistry is the most advanced therapy available to replace teeth. In addition to looking and feeling like real teeth, dental implants allow Dr. Dano to give his patients these advantages:

• Improved smiles • Restoring chewing for easy digestion • Speaking with greater ease • Restored facial structure • Smiling with confidence.

Dental implants offer solutions for all types of tooth replacements. Because dental implants replace the tooth root and serve as an anchor, the new tooth/teeth are secured directly on the implant. This treatment allows teeth to be restored naturally, without harming or involving your surrounding teeth. Dr. Dano also uses dental implants to anchor and support partial or full dentures.

The great advantage of having Dr. Dano place your implant is that he also can restore the tooth/teeth above it. Dr. Dano will place a crown, partial or full denture without you ever having to go to another office.

Treatment ease is a goal for Dr. Dano and Bull Valley Dentistry offers surgical and restorative care in one convenient location:

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff dramatically. If you’re having trouble with your vision, the fix may be as simple as a new eyeglasses prescription. Once you hit age 40, you should have regular, comprehensive, dilated eye exams.

• Assistive walking devices. A cane or a walker can complement your balance and give you more stability and confidence walking. Walkers are available with wheels intended for different terrain, lockable brakes, seats, baskets and other features such as headlights. Canes are available with various handgrips and bases.

Balance is one of those things we take for granted. In most of us, it becomes worse as we enter the last half of our lives. But we often don’t notice it – until suddenly we do.

I remember the moment when I noticed it. A light bulb in a high ceiling fixture needed replacing. So I did what I’d done before, though not for quite a while.

I got out the tall ladder and started to climb. Halfway up, it suddenly struck me: I wasn’t very steady. This was not a good idea. Indeed, it was a bad idea.

I called a young handyman who had done odd jobs for us and told him I had a small job for him. When he asked what it was, I said, “Change a light bulb.” He replied, “Well, this is a first for me, but if the money is good, I’ll be right over.”

Dear Dr. K: I’m in my 70s. A friend of mine recently fell and broke her hip. I’d like to avoid a similar fate. What steps can I take to avoid falling?

Dear Reader: Falls send millions of people in the United States to emergency departments each year with broken hips and head injuries. Imbalance is a common cause of falls. Liz Moritz, a physical therapist at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital, recommends several strategies to people looking to improve their balance.

• Physical therapy. Physical therapy for balance focuses on three things: the ability of the joints and brain to communicate, the balance system in the ear (the vestibular system) and vision. Exercises such as standing on one foot, first with the eyes open and then with the eyes closed, can help coordinate all three.

Joint flexibility exercises, walking and lower-extremity exercises also can help.

• Muscle strengthening. Core strength is very important for balance. If the abdominal muscles in your core are weak, they cannot support your legs when you’re walking. And if the muscles in your buttocks and hips aren’t strong, they won’t be able to propel you forward. Muscle strengthening exercises can help.

• Tai chi and yoga. Tai chi and yoga make you pay attention to the control and quality of movement, which improves your balance. In tai chi, you practice slow, flowing motions and shift your weight from one limb to another. Yoga incorporates a series of focused postures and breathing. Both exercises increase flexibility, range of motion, leg and core strength and reflexes.

• Vision correction. If your vision is impaired, your risk of falling increases

ANSWER TO PREVIOUS PUZZLE A T C H B A M A E L O C I N K D A A I O T V I C H E T T O B R O N A Y R P E B A G V E L A A B E D L E R

Our daughter, a young Thai adult, is socially immature. Her mother and I are American citizens, and we recently brought her to the U.S. on a tourist visa to expose her to Western culture. While she was there, a suitor – who is nearly 40, divorced, with two small kids – manipulated her. After she returned to Thailand, she continued communicating with him on Facebook.

The guy flew to Thailand, secretly married her and left the country. He now is in the process of acquiring a spousal immigration visa, and we are desperately afraid of losing our daughter.

We’re not convinced she’s in love with him.

We think she’s just trying to escape her Tiger Mom, who insists on Thai culture, respect and adherence to family values.

We are considering appealing to the government requesting denial of the visa request. Your take? – Concerned Dad In Thailand Dear Concerned Dad: What this man did is reprehensible. Because you don’t know him, one has to wonder if anything he told your daughter about himself is true – including his age, marital status and whether he is a parent.

Since you didn’t mention your daughter’s age or if she is old enough to consent to marriage, consulting a lawyer to help you navigate through government channels would be a good place to start. You have my sympathy, and I wish you luck.

Dear Abby: I’ve been with “Derek” for two months. We’re both 14, and had an on-and-off friendship before it started.

Derek has a history of mental illness (including depression and anxiety). Lately, he has started talking about things like college plans and even marriage. He flatters me nonstop and says repeatedly how “perfect” and “goddess-like” I am, completely degrading himself in the process. He says he is “weak, stupid and ugly” compared to me.

I’m afraid to dump him because Derek has attempted suicide several times in the past and has hinted at doing it again if I do. I can’t say the words to him with that hanging over me.

His parents are unreachable, and he’s already on medication. Derek has refused counseling in the past. I’m really afraid, but I can’t stand staying in this relationship much longer.

Thoughts? – Afraid In Oregon Dear Afraid: If you haven’t spoken to your parents about Derek and his emotional blackmail, do it immediately. You are not responsible for his welfare – his family is. Derek appears to be in need of more professional help than he is receiving. Encourage him to think about positive things like college, but tell him you are too young for any kind of permanent exclusive relationship. Period. Once your parents know what’s going on, I’m sure they will back you up 100 percent.

Tigers denied first Class 4A sectional title

By ALEX KANTECKI

• Friday, November 4, 2016

HUNTLEY – After DeKalb’s Hannah Oehlberg provided the final smash in Thursday’s Class 4A Huntley Sectional volleyball championship match, Crystal Lake Central junior Emily Kelly briefly fell to her knees.

After last year’s Tigers became the first in program history to win a Class 4A regional title (after moving up from 3A in 2012), this year’s team was trying to go one step further and win the first 4A sectional title.

That possibility will have to wait at least one year longer as fifth-seeded DeKalb defeated No. 2 Crystal Lake Central, 25-23, 25-20. The Barbs never had won a sectional title before Thursday, while the Tigers’ last sectional title was in 2009 (Class 3A).

DeKalb (20-13) advances to Saturday’s Dundee-Crown Supersectional at 1 p.m. against Stevenson, which beat Libertyville, 26-24, 25-15, in the Lakes Sectional final.

“To make it this far is still really big, but we wanted more,” said junior libero Kendall Lownds, who had two aces and seven digs. “We made it this far, so I guess our goal for next year is to take it a step farther.”

The Tigers (26-9), who finished second in the Fox Valley Conference this year (one match behind Huntley) and were the last FVC team standing in the playoffs, will have another good chance of making it back to sectionals next season with all seven starters returning.

Only Rebecca Alvarez, Jordyn Nimmer and Kathleen Penza are graduating.

“They need to keep their heads held high, and they should be proud with how they played,” said Tigers coach Lisa Brunstrum, who returned to head coaching duties for the first time after giving birth to her second child last week.

“Most of this team has never played together before. We have a lot of underclassmen on this team, but the majority still get a chance to come back and play another high school season.”

The Barbs jumped out to big leads in both sets, 8-4 in the first and 7-3 in the second, but the Tigers battled back both times.

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Last year’s Tigers became the first in program history to win a Class 4A regional title after moving up from 3A in 2012. This year’s team went one match further with a sectional semifinal win before falling to DeKalb in the final.

Three of those underclassmen – freshman Olivia Anderson, Madde Blake and Camryn Hausler – finished with four kills apiece, while junior

A critical swing point that would have given the Tigers a 24-22 lead in the opening set instead became 23-all.

DeKalb scored the final two points on an ace by Abby Boyden and a block by Jasmine Kemp.

“We thought the up official called the antenna, and instead they called a touch on our side,” Brunstrum said.

“We thought it hit the antenna and the net before it hit her, and that’s what we were kind of questioning.

That was a momentum-changing play, and DeKalb stepped up and really capitalized on those last two points.”

In the second set, the Tigers trailed by as many as seven, 14-7, but climbed back to within a point, 20-19, before DeKalb scored five out of the last six points to win the match.

“DeKalb runs a really quick attack, especially on the outside,” Brunstrum said. “We really struggled defensively just getting set and stopped in our positions to really defend against that.”

CLASS 1A WESTMINSTER CHRISTIAN SECTIONAL

Historic season ends for Faith Tiny CL school falls in title match

By TIM SIECK

sports@nwherald.com ELGIN – The Faith Lutheran girls volleyball team put on a strong postseason run, during which the Saints broke a school record for wins in a season with 15 and earned the program’s first regional title.

Faith Lutheran’s dream season came to an end Thursday against Schaumburg Christian, which beat the Saints, 25-23, 25-13, in the final of the Class 1A Westminster Christian Sectional.

The No. 4-seeded Saints had trouble when they faced No. 2 seed Schaumburg Christian early in the season, and they knew they needed to be on their game to advance.

However, too many mental and physical errors proved to be costly for the Saints.

“Our passing game really hurt us tonight, and we made too many mistakes,” Saints coach Ramon Borrero said. “All season when we passed the ball well, we had a good chance of winning. Tonight, we didn’t, and that cost us in the end.”

The Saints (15-12) battled throughout the first set and even took a 21-19 lead, thanks to the net play of Emily Lagerquist and Maddie Hornok. Faith Lutheran also received some quality defensive plays from Lauren Wilson, but the miscues took over again, which allowed the Conquerors to take control of the match.

“We made some mistakes, but overall, I am proud of how we played today and this season,” Wilson said. “We won a regional for the first time and had an amazing two weeks. I am really happy to have been a part of this.”

In the second set, Schaumburg Christian broke open what at the time was an 11-10 game and scored 14 of the final 17 points to put Faith Lutheran away and advance to Saturday’s Christian Liberty Academy Supersectional, where it will face Lanark Eastland.

“We really came together in the last two weeks and were able to make history for our school,” Faith Lutheran’s Casandra Paiz said. “This season was

“After coaching volleyball for the last 34 years, I came really close to quitting five months ago,” Borrero said. “I had some things happen, and volleyball just wasn’t important anymore. Being with this team made me love volleyball again and has given me the desire to keep coaching for a long time. I want to thank these girls for this great experience at such a small school. I am truly honored to be part of this program.”

The Saints were led by Lagerquist with five kills and Paiz with seven digs.

to mental now. When it comes this far in the playoffs, the teams are so evenly ranked that mental awareness is key.”

Marian wasn’t fazed mentally when Carmel jumped out to an early lead in the first set Thursday or when the Corsairs led, 21-18, late in the set. Marian pulled even at 22 before Nemtuda rocketed two key kills in a row.

Watling wasn’t thrilled with her team’s first set.

“Ugh, sloppy,” Watling said. “You could see that the nerves were affecting them because that was the most hitting errors I think we’ve had all year in one set. But that’s the awesome thing I love about this team.

When they were challenged, they were still able to find a way.”

The Hurricanes wore down Carmel in the second set, leading by as much

as eight before finishing it off. Marian beat Carmel for the second time this season, although the first match was almost two months ago.

Nemtuda led the way with 10 kills and 11 digs. McKayla Wuensch had 29 assists.

“Carmel brought it in the first set,” Wuensch said. “We made some unnecessary errors here and there.

But, really, it just was: they wanted it, we wanted it, we’re both good teams. I think the first set showed it.”

Of Marian’s 10 seniors, Nemtuda and Wuensch are the only two who have played on the varsity team each of the past four years – contributing to four consecutive sectional titles.

“That’s unbelievable that they can say they had four sectional titles,” Watling said. “That’s not an easy feat by any stretch of the imagination.”

Marian has won 22 matches in a row and has lost only 10 sets all year.

Meghan Schwallie led the Hurricanes with 15 digs, and Brenna Koch contributed six kills and 10 digs.

The Broncos are the defending Class 6A state champions and have played in seven consecutive state championship games, winning five. They knocked out the Wolves last year, 35-27, in their Class 6A semifinal in Lombard and then beat Crete-Monee for the state championship.

Although Prairie Ridge’s offense has put up huge yards and points, the defense has been equally dominant.

Wolves opponents have scored a total of 26 points in the past seven games, and Prairie Ridge’s defense has a string of

three consecutive shutouts.

Linebacker Jacob Ommen said everything starts with the defensive line of Dunican, Jeff Jenkins, John Weissman and Phil Koenig.

“They clog the middle. It’s hard for offenses to run when there’s no holes to get through, bodies laying everywhere,” Ommen said. “It makes the offenses one-dimensional. It’s just everyone doing their jobs, that’s it.”

Wolves coach Chris Schremp has had Andy Petersen as defensive coordinator for several seasons and thinks this is Petersen’s best job.

Continued from page 5 “The guys have bought into two things,” Schremp said. “It’s really simple, and it sounds like just coachspeak – it’s do your job and tackle.

Our team tackles really well. In high school football, it’s so much getting the guys lined up in the right way and go and tackle. That’s really what it’s been. Our defensive coaches have done a phenomenal job.”

Montini has played most of the

season without senior running back Prince Walker, a Western Michigan commit who has battled a quadriceps injury. Walker played in Week 9, and running back Will Smith, the Broncos’ leading rusher with 537 yards, missed time with a hand injury, but both are expected to play.

Prairie Ridge’s defense had to replace eight starters from last season.

Only Ommen, Jenkins and linebacker Joe Perhats were returning starters. Tight end Austen Ferbet, one of the team’s best athletes, has played on both sides, and other new regulars

have learned quickly.

“The ones who don’t have the experience bought into our system, and the leaders here brought them in,” Perhats said. “That’s all they’re used to; that’s all they know. We go out there and run around and do what we do.”

The Wolves saw Walker last year and know Montini will present challenges they have not seen for a while.

“He’s a dynamic back, good out of the backfield on swing passes, runs the ball really well in the zone,” Ommen said. “If our D-line does their

Schremp said the Wolves expected to see Montini at some point, but was surprised it was this soon in the tournament.

“In the second round, at their place, we’re not thrilled about that,” Schremp said. “But it is what it is.

We have to beat them eventually, so let’s go. Last year we weren’t sure we could match up. It took the first quarter to compete with them and believe we can do it. This year, we know we can compete with them.”

He adjusted his workouts this summer and has dominated area races, except for a hiccup at the Fox Valley Conference Meet, where he went out too fast and collapsed in the final 300 meters.

one of those (top-25) medals. I don’t care if it’s 25. You get one.”

“It was kind of rough watching all the conference, regional and sectional and not being able to run (last year),” Becker said. “That was a wake-up call that not everything can go your way. That’s OK. I’m glad I’m back now and feeling good.

We’ve taken the training easily, so I’m pretty fresh.”

ALWAYS THERE

Central’s girls team has qualified 10

years in a row since the IHSA went to three classes for cross country. The Tigers took third place at last week’s Belvidere Sectional, perhaps the toughest of the state’s five girls sectionals.

GUTSY PERFORMANCE

Central’s Weston Sterchi took 11th at the Belvidere Sectional to help the Tigers’ boys team to another state berth, despite being diagnosed with strep throat the night before. Without Sterchi’s finish, the Tigers would have finished a few points out of fifth place and not made it to state.

HOT ROCKETS

R-B’s girls won the Class 1A Winnebago Regional and Oregon Sectional and are shooting for a trophy with a top-three finish at state. The Rockets’ top four runners – Breanne Retherford, Emma Langlois, Amy Frisch and Gabby Ross – have been remarkably consistent.

They were in the top 11 finishers at the regional and top 15 at sectional.

MEDAL HOPEFULS

In the Class 2A boys race, Crystal Lake Central’s Cole Barkocy, Hampshire’s Jake Oury and Prairie Ridge’s Filip Pajak likely have the best shots from the area to medal. Pajak was fourth last year and 24th in 2014, Barkocy was 13th in 2014. If Oury makes the top 25, he would be the first Hampshire boys runner to medal in state cross country.

In Class 1A, R-B’s Ryan Hommuwon has a medal chance after winning the Kishwaukee River Conference title, taking second in the Winnebago Regional and ninth in the Oregon Sectional.

Marian Hossa had two goals, Jonathan Toews also scored, and the Hawks killed three more penalties to run their streak to 12 after an awful start to the season. Artemi Panarin added his fifth of the season off a slick pass from Patrick Kane in the third.

The Hawks won for the seventh time in nine games, but Quenneville pointed out a couple of areas of concern, mostly having to do with puck possession and movement. However, he sounded pretty satisfied with the situation in goal.

Colorado dominated parts of the first and second periods, but Crawford was on top of his game again. He stopped Tyson Barrie about 5 minutes into the first, and denied Matt Duchene on a break-

away in the second. He also had a sharp glove save on Barrie at 9:34 of the third.

“He’s been outstanding,” Quenneville said.

Crawford caught a break when Nathan MacKinnon banged a shot off the left post about 4 minutes into the first, and Hawks defenseman Brent Seabrook helped out by breaking up a 2-on-1 in the second.

“The guys played well,” Crawford said. “PK (Kane) was solid again, moving pucks down. It makes it harder on the power play when you’ve got to skate back all the time. It’s just a big game for us.”

Semyon Varlamov made 17 saves for Colorado.

Crystal Lake South’s Caitlin Bruzzini and Jack Becker can add something new to their impressive running résumés: a state cross country medal.

Although both have been dominant runners around the area, neither has earned all-state honors, although their seasons to this point indicate a top-25 finish is quite realistic.

Bruzzini, a senior, Caitlin Bruzzini took fifth Saturday in the Class 3A Waukegan Sectional. Becker, a junior, took fifth in the boys race. They lead a group of area runners headed for the cross country state meet Saturday at Peoria’s Detweiller Park.

Jack Becker Richmond-Burton’s girls and boys teams will run in Class 1A. Crystal Lake Central’s girls and boys will run in Class 2A. Johnsburg’s girls team also will run in Class 1A. Bruzzini believes her first state meet experience last year (she finished 41st) will be beneficial.

“It’ll help dealing with nerves and figuring out a pattern of what you eat and everything you do,” Bruzzini said. “I want to start out in control and hopefully get a (personal record).”

Cubs win, and world doesn’t end

CLEVELAND – Upon waking, start with the simple and the immediate.

Arms? Still here. Excellent. Legs?

Seem to be in working order. Move on to the bigger stuff. Look out the window. Buildings still standing. Traffic moving briskly. Sky not only not falling but full of clouds, the sun trying to peek through.

VIEWS Taking Rick inventory Morrissey is necessary because of the long-held suspicion that the end of the world would be tied to a Cubs World Series title. But Thursday dawned the way most other dawns do, although if it stayed up as late as most of us did, it was groggy.

That the Cubs are World Series champs for the first time in 108 years hasn’t fully registered yet. What happened Wednesday night in an 8-7, 10-inning victory over the Indians in Game 7 was so exhilarating and so taxing that most people I saw afterward appeared to have gone 15 rounds with a professional boxer and a whiskey bottle. And they hadn’t even played in the game. As the innings went by, all I could think of was that this is what bearing quintuplets must feel like.

The parade to honor the Cubs is Friday, and it figures to be the parade to end all parades. Buses full of champions will roll down city streets, and throngs of adoring fans will scream, sing and wave flags. But let’s take a moment to remember the journey that got the Cubs and their public to that point. The ride, from beginning to end, was fueled by fun.

This was a likeable team run by Joe Maddon, a funhouse manager who brought magicians and innovation to the job. His slogan for 2016, “Embrace the Target,” set the tone for the season: The Cubs, who were the clear favorites to win the World Series all year, wouldn’t run away from expectations. They would embrace them, own them and laugh gregariously in the face of them. Sure, the Cubs might have won Game 7 in spite of their manager’s meddling, but believe me, no one is going to be thinking about that in the coming months and years.

This season will be remembered for the hitting of Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo, the pitching of Jon Lester and the brilliance of Kyle Hendricks. It will be remembered for Javy Baez’s fielding wizardry, Aroldis Chapman’s blazing

The Cubs celebrate after Game 7 of the World Series against the Indians on Wednesday night in Cleveland. The Cubs won, 8-7, in 10 innings to win the series, 4-3.

City to honor champion Cubs today with parade, rally CHICAGO – Ecstatic Cubs fans are expected to amass downtown Friday for a parade and rally to honor the new World Series champions.

The celebration of the Cubs’ first title in 108 years will kick off when team buses leave Wrigley Field at 10 a.m. for an official launch of the parade at 11 a.m. The procession will begin at the intersection of famed Michigan Avenue and Oak Street, heading south, then continue along Columbus Drive to Grant Park for a noon rally.

“The City of Chicago could not be more proud of the Cubs, and we are going to throw them – and their fans – a celebration worthy of the history the team made last night,” Mayor Rahm Emanuel said fastball, Jake Arrieta’s high-wire act and David Ross’ infectious enthusiasm.

And this season will be remembered for Kyle Schwarber, who hardly played in it. You can’t make up stories such as Schwarber’s because they would be dismissed as fanciful. The kid blew out his knee in his second game of the regular season and then went through months of rehab with the idea of returning healthy for the

Thursday in a release.

Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner has proclaimed Friday as “World Champion Chicago Cubs Day” across the state. Rauner called the win “bigger than baseball.”

“This is a celebration for past and present fans along with all the Cubs’ legends who never gave up hope,” he said.

The noon rally will be at Grant Park’s Hutchinson Field. The celebration comes two days after the Cubs’ dramatic 8-7, extra-inning Game 7 victory in Cleveland.

About 2 million people attended a parade and rally when the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup in 2015, according to city estimates.

– The Associated Press 2017 season. That was everybody’s idea, including Maddon and Theo Epstein’s. But doctors cleared Schwarber to play right before the World Series began, and after only two games in the Arizona Fall League, all Schwarber did was tear through the Indians’ pitching. Nobody does that. No 23-year-old does that. But this one did.

Epstein, the Cubs president of baseball operations, was hired in 2011 and

immediately went about the business of losing. And losing prodigiously. The plan was to tear down for the purpose of building up, and it worked, even though some of us (ahem, me) didn’t like the idea at all. The losing allowed Epstein to get high draft choices, which he used on the likes of Bryant and Schwarber. A trade brought shortstop Addison Russell, another young, talented player. Once the foundation was established, Epstein and general manager Jed Hoyer convinced the veteran Lester to sign with the Cubs as a free agent for the 2015 season. That was the first real indication that it was finally time to win.

And win they did. The Cubs won 103 regular-season games in 2016, the most in the big leagues, then beat the Giants in a National League Division Series and the Dodgers in the NL Championship Series. And, finally, Cleveland, which hasn’t won a World Series since 1948.

It’s real. It finally happened. And as far as I can tell, we all are still here.

them. He called them his brothers.

“Fight for your brothers!” Heyward shouted.

Russell and rookie Willson Contreras both admitted later, when the champagne-soaked clubhouse had turned into the center of the partying universe, that they’d cried listening to Heyward’s words and while trying to express their own feelings to teammates in the ensuing minutes before play resumed.

“He looked at us and told us we were all winners,” Contreras said.

“He said, ‘I’m so proud of you guys.

We’re not giving up. We’re playing Game 7 and we’re going to win it.’

It was amazing. A bunch of us were crying.”

The tears flowed again from Contreras after Ben Zobrist’s 10th-inning hit scored Albert Almora Jr. with the go-ahead run. The result still was in doubt, he understood, but he knew that all was right again with the close-knit Cubs.

“I just felt so lucky to be on this team,” Contreras said, “but I was looking down at the floor because I didn’t want the cameras to see me crying in the middle of the game.”

It really was, as Anthony Rizzo called it, the “best rain delay of all time.”

“We came together tonight on a new level,” Russell said.

Amid the cacophony of the Game 7 clubhouse celebration, Heyward patiently discussed his actions during the delay. But he repeatedly – and completely in character – downplayed his role in turning the game around.

“I don’t need to take any credit for anything,” he said. “I just love them so much that, win or lose, I would hate to see them not be themselves.”

In that 10th inning, they were themselves and more. They were champions – on a whole new level.

WEEK #9 MATCHUPS

• Friday, November 4, 2016

CLEVELAND — Aroldis Chapman walked slowly off the field, his night’s work finished, his season – and, perhaps, his time as a Chicago Cub – over. After blowing a save in the eighth inning of Game 7 of the World Series, Chapman at least had kept the Indians scoreless in the ninth.

For the Cubs, it was on to extra innings. For Chapman, owner of the most sizzling fastball in baseball history, it was back to the dugout to try to keep his composure and support his teammates.

He couldn’t do it.

Jason Heyward It would be unfair to say the Cubs were unnerved Wednesday night by the site of their towering, muscle-bound closer crying in the dugout, but that’s only because many of them already had lost their cool themselves. The Indians’ threerun, game-tying rally with two outs in the eighth was a staggering blow.

“We worked so hard,” young shortstop Addison Russell said, “and for them to just come back like that made it feel like it was slipping through our grasp.”

For the best team in baseball, there was doubt setting in. Fear, too.

“Vulnerability,” Russell called it. But then rain forced what would turn into a 17-minute delay before the start of the 10th inning.

“I believe God brought that rain for a reason,” Dexter Fowler said.

Five, 10, 20 years from now, Cubs fans may or may not remember how severely Jason Heyward struggled at the plate during his first season as the team’s right fielder. But his moment of leadership when the team needed it most – heading into its clubhouse during that brief delay – will be told and retold as a matter of Cubs lore.

Heyward saw the shattered expressions on the faces of some of his teammates and, although normally soft-spoken, initiated an impromptu team meeting right then and there.

He was, in his words, “heated” and “venting.” He challenged teammates: “Where’s that fire we’ve had all year?” But then he told them he loved

SPORTS BRIEFS Harvard U. suspends men’s soccer team over sexual comments

BOSTON – Harvard University suspended its men’s soccer team for the rest of the season because of sexual comments made about members of the women’s soccer team.

University president Drew Faust said in a statement Thursday night that an investigation into the 2012 team found that its “appalling” actions were not isolated to one year or the actions of a few, but appeared to be more widespread across the team and continued through the current season.

A 2012 document uncovered last month

by The Harvard Crimson student newspaper rated the attractiveness of recruits on the women’s team and included lewd comments about them. Members of the men’s team called it their “scouting report” and circulated it online.
