Why this Indians fan still is suffering a Cubs hangover

It’s Monday morning, and I’m still not quite over my Cubs hangover.

Coming from an Indians fan, that’s saying something.

Regular readers of my column know I am a die-hard Cleveland sports fan, so it should be no surprise that I was among the most disappointed when the Chicago Cubs beat the Indians in the 10th inning of Game 7 last Wednesday to claim their first World Series championship in 108 years.

That said, there is no team (other than my Indians) more worthy of a title than the Cubs, so I congratulate them and their long-suffering fan base. Just know that it’s the Indians’ turn next year.

The reason for my extended Cubs hangover is not because I’ve been drowning my sorrows.

It’s because we at the Northwest Herald and all of Shaw Media are not finished commemorating the historic event.

Let me explain: In Tuesday’s Northwest Herald, we will publish on glossy paper a reprint of last Thursday’s front page that documented the Cubs’ World Series win. The special “poster” reprint will be a keepsake and is made possible by our sponsor Lea Heating & Air Conditioning.

Then on Thursday, we will publish a 20-page commemorative special section celebrating the Cubs’ victory. It also will include our readers’ favorite fan photos.

Finally, Shaw Media teamed with the Daily Herald and AM 670-The Score to produce a 108-page soft-cover book that through words and images documents the Cubs’ 2016 championship season, including Friday’s parade and rally.

It was edited by Pro Football Weekly’s Hub Arkush, a die-hard Cubs fan. Arkush opens the magazine with an exclusive column on what the World Series title means to him.

You can preorder the book online at www. shawmedia.com/cubs. It will be available at area stores later this week.

VATICAN CITY – Pope Francis held a special Jubilee Mass for prisoners in St. Peter’s Basilica on Sunday, telling them that all people “have made mistakes” and urging them to never give up hope in God’s mercy.

He later urged political leaders across the world to respect the dignity of inmates and offer them amnesty whenever possible.

Francis stood before a congregation made up of some 1,000 prisoners from 12 countries and their families, as well as prison chaplains and volunteers. The event was part of the Vatican’s Holy Year of Mercy, which comes to an end later this month.

Joel Kriete of Harvard walks past the entrance to his subdivision Nov. 1. When Harvard’s Park Pointe subdivision fell into total disrepair, Kriete took on the project of landscaping, painting and beautifying the entrance to his subdivision. He and his two sons also painted the neighborhood’s fire hydrants. Kriete explains his motivation in a video on www.NWHerald.com.

Harvard man takes action to improve area, inspires neighborhood pride

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com HARVARD – Harvard resident Joel Kriete couldn’t stand looking at the overgrown entrance to his subdivision multiple times a day, so he decided to fix it.

And what started out as a beautification project for the Park Pointe subdivision turned into an uplifting experience for Kriete and his neighbors.

“I’m sure in the beginning they were like, ‘What’s this guy thinking?’ ” said Kriete, who has lived in the subdi-

“It’s one of those things where after a while, you can ask, you can suggest, you can complain, but at some point, you just have to do it on your own.”

Joel Kriete, Harvard resident vision for about 16 years.

But after a few months of work, what used to be overgrown patches of land with broken signs now is a well-maintained entrance to the east side of Harvard off Route 173.

Park Pointe signs on each side of the entrance sit among neatly trimmed pine trees and rows of yellow, orange and red mums planted behind a stone barrier.

The idea for the neighborhood

cleanup started when Kriete and his two sons painted 47 fire hydrants in Harvard. When the first project was finished, they decided to do more.

Kriete started by removing brush from the entrance so it was easier and safer for people to walk along Route 173, where there’s no sidewalk. Other neighbors would stop by and ask how they could lend a hand, and soon Kriete said he knew people who he had been waving to in passing for years by first names.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Mobile applications are taking the world by storm, McHenry County College instructor Bill Skrzypczak said.

However, Skrzypczak said, contrary to what many people may believe, the industry’s future isn’t in gaming apps such as Angry Birds or Pokemon Go. “It’s actually when you apply mobile technology to automated systems like smart home technology, or use apps for health care,” Skrzypczak said. “For instance, a lot of doctors are remotely checking on patients by using apps and mobile technology. That’s where the real money is.”

Since many high-paying, in-demand jobs are seeking mobile application developers, MCC is offering a new mobile application degree program led by Skrzypczak.

“After I came out of the high-tech industry to work at MCC, I’ve leveraged my contacts to put together a business leadership team,” Skrzypczak said. “The leadership team has helped create the best curriculum possible

EDITING OUT BLINDNESS Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a group of genetic disorders that causes cells in the light-sensing retina to degenerate, which leads to loss of night vision and progressive loss of the visual field that leads to “tunnel vision.” While some RP patients retain their central vision and a restricted visual field into their 50s, others experience significant vision loss in early adulthood.

Eventually, most individuals with RP will lose most of their sight. However, promising news tells of a genome therapy technique, CRISPR, that is being tested as a possible way of saving the sight of people with inherited eye diseases. CRISPR edits out and replaces the gene causing the disease, after which the corrected cells are injected into the eye.

SM-CL0407231

In addition to innovative therapies, a number of services and devices are available rot help people with vision loss carry out daily activities and maintain their independence. In addition to eye care professionals, it’s important to have help from a team of experts, which may include occupational therapists, orientation and mobility specialists, and certified low vision therapists. At CRYSTAL LAKE OPHTHALMOLOGY, our courteous staff is professional and well-trained. We’re located at 280-A Memorial Court, where we encourage regular eye examinations.

“It’s wonderful that neighbors get together and help to beautify the city. It’s the only way to get ’er done, really.”

Dave Nelson, Harvard city administrator

A view of the Park Pointe subdivision entrance in Harvard on Tuesday. When the entrance fell into total disrepair a local neighbor took on the project of landscaping, painting and beautifying the entrance to his subdivision.

• NEIGHBORHOOD PRIDE Continued from page A3

“The more people that do it, and the more it gets out there, the more the community can actually push their will and their way to a better community,” Kriete said. “You can’t just sit there and tell everyone that’s in charge that it’s their fault and this is their responsibility; it’s everybody’s.”

Harvard City Administrator Dave Nelson said the estimated 120-home subdivision was constructed in the late 1990s.

The subdivision used to have a homeowners’ association, but it fell apart, Nelson said. When Kriete came to the city asking for help and permission to work on the neighborhood, Nelson said the city helped provide brush pickup, paint and other supplies.

“It’s wonderful that neighbors get together and help to beautify the city,” Nelson said. “It’s the only way to get ’er done, really.”

Park Pointe resident Torey Lawin

Sarah Nader – snader@ shawmedia.com

set up the GoFundMe page, https:// www.gofundme.com/2prfyys, for the project. The page has raised $450, and many neighbors would stop by the entrance to donate their supplies or time. “[Kriete] kind of set the example and just rolled up his sleeves and started doing it,” Lawin said. “ … Once people started seeing it take effect and seeing the changes,

more started getting involved.”

Lawin said he met more people in a month of working on the entrance than he has in the past 13 years that he’s lived in the subdivision.

“It really helped form our feeling of community in the neighborhood,” Lawin said.

Kriete and Lawin said the project also helped bring back some pride in

the neighborhood, and they hope others can see what can be accomplished with a little community involvement.

The next project they hope to see fixed is the neighborhood’s park, Kriete said.

“It’s one of those things where after a while, you can ask, you can suggest, you can complain,” Kriete said, “but at some point, you just have to do it on your own.”

Huntley asks for removal of shepherd hooks from cemetery

HUNTLEY – The village of Huntley is asking that all shepherd hooks be removed from gravesites in the Huntley Cemetery so cleanup and maintenance can take place.

The Dean Street cemetery will be cleaned Dec. 1.

Shepherd hooks, typically used to hang baskets of flowers, can be replaced in the spring after the cleanup and maintenance, according to a news release from the village.

If the hook is left in the ground after Dec. 1, it will be removed and stored by the village.

Questions or concerns can be directed to Rita McMahon at rmcmahon@ huntley.il.us or 847-515-5216.

CARY – Breaking Bread Catering and Deli is collecting items for the Cary-Grove Food Pantry and the McHenry-based Animal Outreach Humane Society starting Monday.

People can drop off their donations at the deli and restaurant, 638 Route 14, through Dec. 16. Breaking Bread will have a “giving tree” set up containing tags with recommended donation ideas. Needed items include canned goods and paper products.

“Anyone who participates and drops off items will get a 10 percent discount if they’re ordering anything during the drop-off,” Breaking Bread president Teri Plazak said.

This is the third time Breaking Bread has held its benefit since it opened in 2013.

“It’s important to give back to the community,” she said. “A lot of people during the holidays want to get involved somehow, and so we found this was an easy way for them to get involved.”

Plazak said the restaurant collected about 450 pounds of goods from last year’s event.

“We have very generous people in Cary who really care about helping their fellow neighbors,” Plazak said.

Ex-sciences academy president Ralph J. Cicerone dies at 73 The ASSOCIATED PRESS SHORT HILLS, N.J. – Ralph J. Cicerone, president emeritus of the National Academy of Sciences and a renowned authority on atmospheric chemistry and climate change, has died. He was 73.

William Kearney, director of media relations for the Washington, D.C.-based National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, said Cicerone died unexpectedly Saturday at his home in Short Hills, New Jersey.

Cicerone was the 21st president of the National Academy of Sciences from 2005 until this June. He balanced advocacy for independent scientific advice with maintaining a dialogue with politicians and policymakers on major scientific issues.

A leading atmospheric scientist, his research helped shape environmental policy and science nationally and internationally.

Cicerone’s death removes a “great leader” from “the forefront of the scientific issues that matter most to the future well-being of society,” said Marcia McNutt, Cicerone’s successor as president at the National Academy of Sciences.

“Ralph Cicerone was a model for all of us of not only doing what counts, but doing it with honesty, integrity and deep passion,” she said.

Among his achievements were the restoration and renovation of the National Academy of Sciences building on the National Mall, the creation of a $500 million Gulf research program after the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill, two visits by President Barack Obama to NAS, and a several

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Use your knowledge and experience to find and pursue the things that make you happiest. If you are honest with yourself and others, you will find greater contentment.

Be creative in your pursuits and willing to let emotional negativity go. Be clear about what you want, proactive about your plans and true to your commitments.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Follow your desires, and make each moment count. Look for the good and the positive in every situation and act accordingly. Don’t give in to negativity or bullying.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – A business trip or meeting will result in an opportunity.

Don’t be reluctant to make suggestions. An honest and emotional response will help prevent deception or misrepresentation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t let your emotions cost you. If you believe in what you have to offer, so will everyone you encounter.

Be true to yourself, and focus on getting things done.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Think before you speak. Letting your emotions take control will not help you get your way. A moneymaking opportunity will require finesse and patience.

Choose personal change over trying to change others.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – A situation will require an intellectual, rather than physical, response. Protect yourself against being hurt or used by someone who has ulterior motives.

Stick to people you know and trust.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Don’t wait for someone else to take charge. Step up and do your thing. A positive change will surprise someone from your past. A new opportunity is apparent.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Look for the light and love in your life. Refuse to allow negativity and emotional stress to affect you. A creative approach coupled with kindness and understanding will be your ticket to success.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Evaluate your current personal or professional position, and discuss what you want to do with someone you trust, love and respect. Only then will you be able to make the best decision.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Get out and do your own thing. Explore creative pursuits and

consider attending an event that will broaden your outlook or teach you tricks that will speed up daily chores.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Verbal confrontations will not be in your best interest. Stick to the truth, but don’t give the impression you know everything. You will gain more from listening instead of spouting off.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Stay focused on what’s important to you. Check out new ways of accomplishing old goals. Your persistence and ability to articulate what you want and how to get it will serve you well.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Work on you. Self-improvement will bring happiness and satisfaction. Trying to change others will result in disappointment and an unwanted change in relationships. Have fun and be companionable.

HISTORY

Devil in the details when confronting modern ‘wagons’ When McHenry County Board Chairman Joe Gottemoller presented a “state of the county” overview Friday morning before Huntley Chamber of Commerce members, the scope of transportation challenges facing the county came into focus.

You can’t go into battle if you have no weapons, and you can’t make the necessary improvements to transportation infrastructure without financial backing. I won’t bore you with the budget analysis, other than to reiterate what county property owners already know: The lion’s share of property taxes (82 percent in 2015) comes from residential sources.

Gottemoller attributed that to our bedroom-community roots. Most people moved out here because of the quality of life, not employment. In 2013, he said, a third of our workforce commuted to jobs outside the county.

Fortunately, an estimated 40,000 people are commuting here for work. But Gottemoller said just 50,000 people back then lived and worked in McHenry County.

And he suspects that situation has continued to deteriorate, and the state’s economy has deteriorated, and people have moved in search of greener pastures. In 2002, the county issued 4,252 permits for single-family homes.

By 2010, during the worst of the recession, that number fell to 250. Ouch.

Many believe the way out of this mess is to create a more attractive business climate, and a cornerstone of that approach is transportation improvements. Gottemoller said the combined efforts of chairmen from Cook and surrounding counties have resulted in the serious discussion of federally funded rail improvements. And a new, privately funded railroad line that Great Lakes Basin Transportation Inc. is proposing continues to evolve.

A new route, submitted to the U.S. Surface Transportation Board this fall, no longer will go through Boone County. Instead, the 260-mile route, shortened from 278 miles, will route

A Marengo streetscape is seen at the turn of the 20th century.

LOCAL HISTORY Kurt Begalka freight traffic through Kankakee, Grundy, LaSalle, Lee, Ogle and Winnebago counties. The plan also calls for a rail port encompassing nearly 15,000 acres of farmland near Manteno for switching, servicing and car and locomotive repair for railroad customers. It purportedly would be the largest in the world.

The idea is to bypass the bottleneck that is Chicago by avoiding conflicts between passenger trains and freight that can tie up crossings for motorists in places such as Barrington and Mundelein, delay shipments where freight and passenger trains share track, and reduce speeds as trains feel their way through the worst of the congestion.

Great Lakes anticipates rail traffic times through the Chicago area – which can take up to 30 hours to complete – would be reduced to less than eight hours, depending on factors such as interchange point and speed

restrictions.

“If approximately 100 trains a day (out of the 500 freight trains operating in the Chicago area during a typical 24-hour period) utilize GLB’s proposed rail line, the national freight velocity improvements would save hundreds of hours every day,” the company states on its website, www.greatlakesbasin. net.

Gottemoller highlighted the widening of Route 14, between Routes 47 and 176, the western bypass of Algonquin and a wider Rakow Road as encouraging steps. But the elephant in the room continues to be the intersection of Randall and Algonquin roads.

Long gone are the days when I was able to ride my bike past cornfields from Crystal Lake to my grandparents’ house in Elgin.

Gottemoller said the Illinois Department of Transportation estimated the average daily traffic volume at the aforementioned intersection at 72,650 vehicles – the busiest in northern Illinois. The next closest was Roselle and Golf roads, with 71,000 vehicles a day.

By way of comparison, the intersection of Barrington and Higgins

roads handled 62,000 vehicles a day, and Route 14 at Main Street in Crystal Lake logged 41,000 vehicles. Both boast multiple turn lanes – something the Randall intersection lacks now but would get under a proposed $66 million plan. Of that, he said, $10 million would come from the federal government – a wise investment if one considers a total rebuild costing an estimated $29 million will need to occur in the next decade.

All of this makes one pine for the “devil wagon” days of the early 1900s when dirt roads and access to passenger rail combined to limit bumperto-bumper commutes and mile-long backups.

In his book, “The Devil Wagon in God’s Country,” author Michael Berger attempted to explain our growing obsession with vehicles by quoting a contemporary writer of the time.

“The motor car has stolen into the vantage point formerly occupied by the home; it has become the most widely accepted symbol of a man’s ability to purchase luxuries. … A home is more visible; but it does not accompany its owner from point to point, and its cost can only be roughly approximated by a laymen.”

A look at where candidates for U.S. Senate stand The ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO – Four candidates are running for U.S. Senate in Illinois: Democratic U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth, Republican U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk, Libertarian Kent McMillen and the Green Party’s Scott Summers.

Here’s a look at their positions on some key issues, provided by the candidates in response to an Associated Press questionnaire:

What steps should the U.S. take to improve the economy?

Kirk says the U.S. needs a tax system that is “flatter and fairer” than the current structure, with fewer tax brackets, lower individual rates and simpler paperwork. He says corporate tax rates also should be lower, which would allow companies to better compete globally, expand and create jobs. He also wants to eliminate the estate tax, or the tax on inheritance.

Duckworth says the U.S. must invest in working families and small businesses by reducing their tax burden. She supports President Barack Obama’s efforts to limit so-called inversions, when companies relocate in another country – sometimes on paper only – to limit their U.S. taxes. Duckworth also wants greater investment in infrastructure to create jobs. She supports a $478 billion long-term transportation bill, which she

WikiLeaks emails: Emanuel used personal email domain

CHICAGO – Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel used personal email accounts and a personal email domain to communicate with government officials and political figures, according to a published report based on hacked emails posted by WikiLeaks.

Emanuel’s personal account information turned up among the thousands of emails from John Podesta, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman, the Chicago Tribune reported.

Clinton has come under fire for her use of a private email server because doing so potentially jeopardized classified information.

Emanuel registered his personal email domain, “rahmemail.com,” on May 16, 2011, the day he was sworn into office. The

says could be paid for in part by restricting inversions.

McMillen says the U.S. government needs to “go on a diet” so there’s less tax burden on businesses and taxpayers.

“This will give everyone more discretionary income and the economy will boom,” he said.

Summers wants more so-called “microcapitalism” in which small grants, revolving loan funds and business in- Rep. Tammy cubators help people de- Duckworth velop businesses in their homes and communities.

Income inequality has McMillen grown to levels not seen in decades, with the top 1 percent of earners reporting an average household income of $1.3 million. Their pay grew at more than twice the rate of the other 99 percent, whose pay averaged slightly under $49,000.

hacked emails also turned up evidence of Emanuel’s personal Gmail account.

Adam Collins, a spokesman for the mayor, said Emanuel’s use of a customized email domain, or name, is common, and that it was created to ensure the mayor was not using a government email for personal or political purposes. He added that Emanuel has not and does not use a private email server like the one Clinton used to transfer emails.

Collins did not say whether Emanuel has used either of the personal email accounts to conduct government business.

The messages included in the WikiLeaks leaks were among the first direct evidence that Emanuel has used personal email accounts as mayor beyond official city government accounts.

Training academy teaches how to spot child abuse

SPRINGFIELD – The University of Illinois Springfield and the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services have announced the launch of a new training academy.

ogy, engineering and math. She says working and middle-class families are being asked to pay “more than their fair share” of taxes. And she wants to increase the minimum wage. She helped introduce legislation to raise the wage to $12 nationally by 2020, and to $15 in some areas.

Kirk didn’t provide a yes or no answer as to whether income inequality is a problem. “More jobs and job creators in Sen. coordination with access to education is the Mark Kirk only sustainable path to ending poverty, not increased taxes and more government spending,” he said. Kirk added that Chicago is losing “a generation of kids” to gun violence and gangs, and Scott noted that he’s partnered Summers with a Democratic senator on legislation to make gun trafficking a federal crime.

Summers said it’s a problem and that it can be addressed by reforming the tax structure to impose higher tax rates on the wealthy.

McMillen said elected officials don’t need to address the issue, adding that it’s up to individuals to educate and motivate themselves so they’re more attractive to employers.

The Child Protection Training Academy, created through a partnership between the university and DCFS, will be the first of its kind in the country, according to the State Journal-Register.

Director of CPTA Susan Evans said the academy will greatly improve training for child welfare investigators so they can better curb child abuse and neglect. All hires are required to complete simulation training, where trainees will interact with actors playing parents of a child in a simulated household where abuse was alleged.

The simulation lab is in a formerly vacant home on campus.

Investigators also will learn to improve their testimony by going through a mock courtroom experience.

“This gives them a much better sense of what the job is about and how to go out and accurately assess whether or not the department needs to be involved,” said Evans, who is a 24-year veteran of DCFS. More than 140 new DCFS investigators have gone through simulation training and mock courtroom training, Evans said.

She added the academy’s goal is to open

How should the U.S. best fight global terrorism?

Kirk said the U.S. must “stand shoulder-to-shoulder” with Middle East allies such as Israel. He is a staunch opponent of Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran, saying it weakens the U.S.’s position and “elevates the leaders of a nation responsible for more American deaths than ISIS.” Saying Islamic State terrorists are trying to infiltrate refugee flows, Kirk has called for a pause in admitting Syrian refugees into the U.S. “until we can guarantee the strength of our screening processes.”

Duckworth supported the Iran deal, although she called it “imperfect.” She signed on to a letter asking that the U.S. admit 100,000 Syrian refugees – far more than the Obama administration said it will accept – saying many are women and children victimized by the IS and screening is thorough. She supports targeted military action, although the Iraq War veteran said she has “reservations about the deployment of our military without a long-term plan or exit strategy.”

McMillen supports the U.S. sharing intelligence with allies and providing support “which does not mean boots on the ground.”

Summers said the U.S. should “radically shift our foreign policy” away from “perpetual warfare” to extending foreign aid and repurposing the military to provide humanitarian aid.

Indiana man killed by police after road rage incident

CHICAGO – Chicago police said a 25-year-old Indiana man was fatally shot by authorities after a road rage incident.

Police said Joshua Beal of Indianapolis was shot to death Saturday afternoon after failing to drop a gun when confronted by an off-duty officer and a police sergeant.

Beal’s sister, Cordney Boxley, said members of her family had left a South Side cemetery in a funeral caravan when a car cut off the vehicle she was driving and tried to do the same to her sister. She said people got out of their cars, and a melee followed.

Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said an off-duty officer was involved in the brawl, as was a police sergeant. He said both officers fired at Beal and will be placed on administrative duty for 30 days.

The shooting is under investigation.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Captive’s rescue leads to to Colonial Pipeline Co. break in quadruple slaying The pipeline exploded Monday

CHESNEE, S.C. – For 13 years, the relatives came together periodically to grieve one of South Carolina’s grisliest mass shootings and compare leads with stumped investigators.

On Sunday, they gathered again on the anniversary of the crime – this time in a Spartanburg courtroom after an unexpected break led to the man who, authorities say, confessed to the quadruple slayings.

The victims’ relatives sat a few feet away from Todd Kohlhepp as he was denied bond on the murder charges. It was their first chance to face the man accused of killing their loved ones.

Authorities have charged Kohlhepp, 45, with four counts of murder in the 2003 deaths at the Superbike Motorsports motorcycle shop in Chesnee.

Kohlhepp’s alleged role in those killings was uncovered, authorities said, after a woman was found last week chained in a locked metal container on Kohlhepp’s property in rural Woodruff.

Official: Blast-damaged gas line back in service

HELENA, Ala. – A gas pipeline that exploded in Alabama last week is back in service, the pipeline company said Sunday.

Service was restarted at 5:45 a.m. Sunday on the pipeline that transports gasoline from the Gulf Coast to New York City, according

while a crew was making repairs related to a September gas spill, killing one person and injuring four others. It may take several days for the fuel delivery supply chain to return to normal after the service restoration, the company said.

Government officials and Colonial Pipeline have said a piece of excavation equipment hit the pipeline, causing the explosion, but more details haven’t been released. Anthony Lee Willingham, 48, of Heflin, Alabama, died in the blast. Four other people were injured and remained hospitalized.

Mosul battle rages as IS bombings in Iraq kill 20

MOSUL, Iraq – Iraq’s special forces worked Sunday to clear neighborhoods on the eastern edge of Islamic State-held Mosul as bombings launched by the extremist group elsewhere in the country killed at least 20 people.

The Mosul offensive has slowed in recent days as Iraqi forces have pushed into more densely populated areas, where they cannot rely as much on airstrikes and shelling because of the risk posed to civilians, who have been told to stay in their homes.

“There are a lot of civilians and we are trying to protect them,” said Lt. Col. Muhanad al-Timimi.

“This is one of the hardest battles that we’ve faced till now.”

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton greets patrons Sunday at Cedar Park Cafe in Philadelphia.

Clinton focuses on healing, Trump still looking at emails The ASSOCIATED PRESS MANCHESTER, N.H. – With the cloud of an FBI investigation lifted, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump struck strikingly different tones as they moved into the final hours of a volatile, nearly two-years-long presidential campaign.

After days of full-throated attacks on Trump’s qualifications and temperament, Clinton cast herself as the candidate of “healing and reconciliation” – perhaps a surprising position for a woman who’s long been one of the most divisive figures in American politics.

She started her day with a visit to an African-American church in Philadelphia, where she spoke of her candidacy in almost spiritual terms, as she tried to motivate black voters in the crucial swing state.

And she ended with an evening rally in Manchester, New Hampshire. That event featured remarks from Khizr Khan, the Muslim-American lawyer whose Army captain son was killed in Iraq, and soft rock from folk singer James Taylor.

“This election is a moment of reckoning,” she told voters on Sunday night. “It is a choice between division and unity, between strong, steady leadership and a loose cannon who could put everything at risk.”

Clinton said she was “hopeful and optimistic” about the future.

Trump, meanwhile, voiced new confidence as he brought his campaign – and his dark visions of a rigged American economic and political system – to a series of states that have

long been considered Democratic strongholds.

“This is a whole different ballgame,” Trump said at a rally in an airport hangar in Minneapolis, predicting victory in a state that hasn’t cast its electoral votes for a Republican since 1972.

Overshadowing the flurry of last-minute campaigning was the decision by FBI Director James Comey to release a new letter to Congress stating that he’d found no evidence in its hurried review of newly discovered emails to warrant criminal charges against Clinton.

Still, Trump continued to seize on the email issue, despite the FBI’s finding.

“Hillary Clinton is guilty. She knows it, the FBI knows it, the people know,” he said at a rally that drew thousands to an amphitheater in the Detroit suburbs. “And now it’s up to the American people to deliver justice at the ballot box on Nov. 8.”

Comey’s announcement on Sunday capped a stunning chapter in the bitter, deeply divisive contest.

The FBI began investigating the handling of classified material on Clinton’s private email server shortly after she announced her bid in April 2015. The issue has dogged Clinton’s campaign and contributed to the questions a majority of Americans have about her honesty and trustworthiness.

Based on that review, Comey told lawmakers the FBI was not changing the conclusion it reached this summer. Then, Comey said, “no reasonable prosecutor” would recommend Clinton face criminal charges for using a private email system while at the State Department.

U.S. election looms large over U.N. climate talks

By KARL RITTER

The Associated Press MARRAKECH, Morocco – U.N. climate talks open Monday against the backdrop of a U.S. election that could have a major impact on America’s role in the global agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Given Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump’s diverging views on climate change and the landmark emissions pact adopted in Paris last year, some countries’ delegates have been unusually blunt about their preferred outcome.

Brazilian Environment Minister Sarney Filho told reporters in a conference call Thursday he believes American society supports climate action regardless of who becomes the next president. “However, on a personal note, I hope Trump doesn’t win,” he added.

Clinton backs the climate policies of President Barack Obama’s government, including continued engagement in the Paris Agreement. Trump, meanwhile, has expressed doubts about global warming on social media and said in a speech this year that he would “cancel” the climate deal if elected.

Paris Climate Change agreement. the U.S. would ignore its commitments under the agreement – or withdraw from it completely – if Trump were elected.

Asked about Trump’s remarks on the Paris deal, China’s top climate negotiator Xie Zhenhua said “a wise leader” should conform to global development trends.

“If you go against the tide, people will not agree and the economy and the social development of these countries will also be affected,” Xie said earlier this month.

The Obama administration played a key role in making the Paris deal come together, particularly by forming a partnership with China that saw the

world’s top two polluters take the lead in global efforts to slash emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.

Under the Paris deal, the Obama administration pledged to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by 26-28 percent below 2005 levels by 2025.

But U.S. Republicans are opposed to the deal, saying it will harm the U.S. economy. Trump has called for stripping regulations to allow unfettered production of fossil fuels – a key source of carbon emissions – and rescinding the Clean Power Plan, an Obama administration strategy to fight climate change.

In Marrakech, delegates will be working on the details of implementing the Paris deal, such as drafting rules for how to measure and report emissions as well as the financial contributions meant to help poor countries deal with climate change.

The U.S. under the Bush administration decided not to join the previous climate deal, the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, which only regulated the emissions of developed nations. That was a major blow to the agreement, and after other countries dropped out Kyoto ended up covering only a small portion of global emissions.

WILLS TRUSTS ESTATE

BEIRUT – Kurdish-led Syrian forces began an offensive Sunday to liberate the Islamic State group’s de facto capital of Raqqa, clashing with the extremists north of the Syrian city and warning neighboring Turkey not to interfere in the operation.

The United States, France and Britain said they would provide air support for the offensive, which was announced at a news conference in Ein Issa, north of Raqqa, by a coalition of Kurds and Arabs known as the Syria Democratic Forces. But it lacked details on how the group dominated by Kurds plans to oust the militants from the city, home to nearly 200,000 mostly Sunni Arabs and an estimated 5,000 IS fighters.

Unlike several successful military efforts to drive Islamic State militants out of cities in Iraq, the Raqqa offensive faces several political obstacles and is likely to be much more complex.

In Iraq, a U.S.-led coalition is working with the government in Baghdad, but Washington and its partners in Syria are relying on a hodgepodge of local Arab and Kurdish opposition groups, some of which are fierce rivals. The tensions are exacerbated by Russian and Syrian forces on one side and Turkish forces on another.

Still, the start of the Raqqa offensive, which aims initially at isolating and encircling the city, increases the pressure on the Islamic State group, making it harder for its fighters to move reinforcements between Syria and Iraq. The city, which has been under IS control since early 2014, is home to some of the group’s top leaders and is seen as the key to defeating the group militarily.

Islamic State forces already are now under attack by U.S.-backed Iraqi forces on the eastern edges of the city

of Mosul, which the militant group seized two years ago when it captured territory across Iraq and Syria for its self-proclaimed caliphate. The Iraqi forces began their operation Oct. 17 and are trying to push deeper into the city, which is the militants’ last urban bastion in Iraq.

Iraq’s Hezbollah Brigades, one of the main Shiite militias taking part in the government-led push to drive IS from Mosul, said Wednesday its men had taken control of a highway linking Mosul and Raqqa, severing a key supply route between the two militant strongholds.

Senior commanders and representatives of the SDF attended the news conference in Ein Issa, about 30 miles north of Raqqa. The Kurdish officials said the anti-IS campaigns in Mosul and Raqqa are not coordinated but simply a matter of “good timing.”

“We call on our heroic steadfast people in Raqqa and surrounding areas to stay away from enemy gatherings which will be a target for the liberating forces and the coalition forces, and to head to areas that will be liberated,” said Cihan Ehmed, an SDF fighter.

She said 30,000 fighters will take part in the offensive, dubbed “Euphrates Rage,” and that a joint operations command had been set up to coordinate various factions.

“I welcome today’s announcement by the SDF that the operation to free Raqqa from ISIL’s barbaric grip has begun,” U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter said. “The effort to isolate and ultimately liberate Raqqa marks the next step in our coalition campaign plan.

“As in Mosul, the fight will not be easy and there is hard work ahead, but it is necessary to end the fiction of ISIL’s caliphate and disrupt the group’s ability to carry out terror attacks against the United States, our allies and our partners,” he added.

ANOTHER VIEW

Politicians as TV analysts Donna Brazile has been a powerful force in Democratic politics for years. She worked on the presidential campaigns of Jesse Jackson, Walter Mondale and Richard Gephardt, and she ran Al Gore’s 2000 campaign. She’s a partisan, a strategist, an operative – a political hack to some, a party loyalist to others.

What she’s not is an independent, dispassionate analyst of the news.

She’s been playing one on TV, however – as a talking head for CNN. She was omnipresent in the early campaign coverage, where she was routinely identified merely as a “CNN commentator.” Then, last week, the network severed ties with her after learning from hacked emails posted on WikiLeaks that she had surreptitiously fed debate questions to the Clinton campaign during the Democratic primaries. CNN chief Jeff Zucker called Brazile’s actions “unethical” and “disgusting.”

But really, what did he expect? Isn’t it obvious that if you employ “commentators” who are already committed partisans on one side or the other, they’re going to be hard-pressed to live up to the traditional ethical standards of even-handed journalism? Paying political operatives to act as journalists inevitably creates dual loyalties and encourages situations like this one.

Brazile unquestionably behaved in a duplicitous manner, and CNN was right to be upset. But the bigger problem, arguably, is that she and a raft of other political operatives from both major parties had contracts with CNN in the first place. These are examples of the cozy relationship between the network and the people it covers (the same can be said for Fox and its stable of political insiders) that undercut journalistic credibility, and make it difficult for the public to find trustworthy analysis on the talking-head cable TV shows. Instead of offering insight, they often engage in outrageously illogical contortions to buff up whichever candidate they support, or try to dent whomever they oppose.

And why wouldn’t they? Who would expect Mary Matalin, say, to acknowledge the flaws of a Republican candidate? Why would Paul Begala say anything to undermine his friends in the Democratic party?

The persistent presence of these spin doctors on news programs not only confuses voters, it can compromise journalistic efforts to bring clarity to what the candidates are saying and doing. The cable news networks are entitled to hire whomever they want, of course. But they might want to do some soul-searching after election day about the nature of political analysis and the benefit of keeping some distance between the news and the political campaigns they are putatively covering.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

Now for the rest of your ballot The presidency isn’t the only choice next week. Other important things are on the ballot.

Congressional elections may determine whether Obamacare lives or dies. Electionbettingodds.com currently says Republicans will hold the House but lose the Senate. But it’s close.

And politicians aren’t the whole story.

Several states will allow voters to punish their neighbors Tuesday by imposing “sin” taxes.

Politicians like taxing “sin” because it gives them money while letting them claim that they discourage bad behavior.

So, four states offer ballot measures that would raise tobacco taxes.

Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Jersey vote on whether to expand legal gambling, but only state-run gambling. In Rhode Island, 61 percent of the revenue will be kept by the state.

State-run gambling is always a bad bet, but government will really screw you in Rhode Island.

Californians will vote on expansion of a counterproductive rule: a ban on plastic bags. Its supporters say it reduces litter

John Stossel and protects oceans and wildlife.

As usual, the zealots ignore science, convenience and health.

A canvas reusable bag must be used 131 times before it will compensate for the minor environmental impact of plastic bags. Most reusable bags get contaminated by bacteria. The government tells us to carefully wash reusable bags, but almost no one does.

So California voters are likely to vote themselves increased health risk, bad smells and higher costs – for no real environmental benefit.

Fortunately, Tuesday also offers voters some good choices.

Nevada voters may choose to open their state’s energy market to competition. Competition lowers costs. I was surprised to see that unions oppose that. Do unions now oppose everything that’s good?

Four states will get to vote on legalizing medical marijua-

na, and five vote on whether to legalize weed for all adults. The betting suggests that most of these measures will pass.

These are issues Americans disagree about – and it’s good we don’t have to wait for Washington, D.C., to reach agreement about them. Innovation often comes from state experiments.

Abortion and gay marriage were first legalized by states.

Likewise, women first got the vote in Wyoming. Only after that did other states, and the federal government, follow.

James Madison, architect of the Constitution, would have approved. He wanted leeway given to state governments.

Since then, arrogant presidents and other federal officials have taken powers from the states. That leaves Americans fewer choices. But the states will prove again Tuesday that they still have a say, even if we’re stuck with President Hillary Clinton for the next four years.

For most of his career, James B. Comey served as a federal prosecutor. Most prosecutors learn legal ethics on the job. But Comey came to his profession primed with an undergraduate degree in religion, and when he speaks, you can hear the undertones of that education. Comey has often said that the Department of Justice is supposed to be the “other” in government.

A most carefully selected word, as biblical exegesis teaches that “other” is synonymous with “holy.”

Now Comey, the director of the FBI, is being accused of interfering in the presidential election for notifying Congress that federal agents had found new emails that could be pertinent to the bureau’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private server. What Comey is doing, though, is what he’s always done: standing up for what he believes is right, no matter the political consequences.

Prosecutors and agents who worked alongside Comey, as I did when I was the U.S. attorney for Arizona, know him as a straight shooter. Comey burnished that reputation all the brighter the first time he famously refused to follow what one might call accepted Justice Department practice. In March 2004, while serving as deputy attorney general, Comey found himself traveling with lights flashing and sirens blaring to intercept then-President George W. Bush’s top aides. Bush’s emissaries were at that time attempting to get Attorney General John Ashcroft, then in an intensive care unit, to sign off on what Ashcroft and Comey saw as an unlawful domestic surveillance program.

Comey’s predecessors within the department had previously approved that program.

Acting at a time when the Sept. 11 attacks were much more present in our memories and with the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq still raging, Comey faced a choice: accept the program out of deference to Justice Department norms and custom, or reject the program as constitutionally infirm. In a dramatic and very real showdown in Ashcroft’s hospital room, Comey put norms to the side and refused to bend to the president’s wishes.

In June 2013, Comey’s reputation for courageous and independent thinking brought him to the White House Rose Garden. There, President Obama announced Comey’s nomination to be the seventh director of the FBI. At the time, Obama called Comey a “rarity.”

Why? “He doesn’t care about politics,” said the president. Later that year, at his Senate confirmation hearings, Comey committed to “transparency,” a concept he said would be crucial when dealing with Congress. Sen. Charles E. Grassley, R-Iowa, then the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, noted that Comey had “shown a willingness to stand his

ground if necessary.”

This June, while speculation about a federal criminal investigation into Clinton’s emails coursed through the media, Attorney General Loretta E. Lynch took a meeting with former president Bill Clinton on the Justice Department’s private jet parked at the tarmac of Phoenix’s Sky Harbor Airport. After that encounter, so as to better protect the integrity of the criminal investigation, Lynch publicly ceded her decision-making authority to Comey. In so doing, she effectively delegated the discretion to bring charges from the nation’s chief prosecutor to Comey, the nation’s chief investigator.

No credible authority doubted the wisdom of allowing Comey to make the call about whether to charge Clinton with a crime. Neither political party objected to what was so clearly a deviation from Justice and FBI norms.

Yet when Comey announced his decision that no reasonable prosecutor would charge Clinton, critics were quick to point to policy that would have had Comey conduct himself differently. Republicans believed he should have charged her. Democrats were upset that Comey gave too much detail and information. And this past week, after Comey alerted Congress that the discovery of additional emails mandated further review, critics with hands on hearts again cried that Comey had run afoul of policy.

Where were those same critics and hard-liners when Comey bucked Bush in 2004? Why the grateful applause when he willingly shouldered Lynch’s responsibility in July?

All prosecutions of political figures are fraught with such perils, and predictable. Comey knew this, as do I. In May 2005, long before the High Noon drama at Ashcroft’s hospital room was known to the public, Comey gave a speech to an audience of government attorneys working in the intelligence field. Comey addressed the need for public servants to act courageously. He counseled his audience that when faced with difficult decisions, they must employ a unique ability: “the ability to transport ourselves to another time and place; and the ability to present facts to an imaginary future fact finder.” Making difficult decisions, Comey argued, “takes more than a sharp legal mind.” It takes “moral character.”

In making his decisions with regard to Clinton, Comey looked to our nation’s future and exercised his own, and independent, judgment.

With Comey, past is prologue. Where policy and Comey’s sense of what is right conflicted, Comey would do what is right.

While many may disagree with Comey’s decisions today, we are better served if we reserve judgment. In the near future, the nation will look back and realize the wisdom of trusting a public servant with moral character.

No theory to explain yawning This column ran originally in October 2014.

Dear Dr. K: I get plenty of sleep. So why do I yawn all the time?

Dear Reader: We all yawn frequently, more often in the early morning and late evening. Does it mean we’re tired? Bored?

Short on oxygen? As common as it is, we know little for certain about yawning.

We do know yawning does not always indicate a need for sleep. It is true people often yawn as they get ready to retire for the night. But we also yawn when we first arise in the morning and at other times during the day.

Past theories about why we yawn centered on the assumption it was a reflex in response to low oxygen or high carbon dioxide levels.

That’s because breathing (which is what we do when we yawn) takes in oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. When you yawn, you take in more air than with a normal breath. So it’s a reasonable theory we yawn because we need more oxygen, or less carbon dioxide.

But reasonable theories often don’t prove true. This particular theory lost favor after a study in which volunteers subjected to high oxygen levels did not yawn less, and after high carbon dioxide exposure did not yawn more.

Another theory of yawning is it protects against a condition called atelectasis (at-al-EK-tas-is), which is the collapse of some of the lung’s air sacs. The lungs are full of tiny little air sacs, but not all of them are filled with air. If an air sac remains without air, it’s like a little collapsed balloon. Instead of being separated by air, the walls of the sac touch each

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff other. If that goes on for very long, the walls can get sticky. It gets harder for the air sac to open when new air enters the lungs.

Yawning opens up tiny airways and prevents them from collapsing. So the theory yawning is a reflex that protects against atelectasis is reasonable. This could explain why yawning seems to occur when your breathing is shallow, such as when you’re tired or bored. However, we don’t know if the theory is true.

Here’s another theory: Yawning might be a warning system to alert you you’re getting sleepy and you had better stay awake.

If you are driving a car, for example, and relaxing to the point where you might soon fall asleep, yawning might make you more conscious of the need to take a break. Yawning is associated with stretching of the muscles and joints and an increased heart rate. That may make you more alert.

Finally, yawning may be a sign of disease. Although rarely the first sign, excessive yawning has been observed among people with multiple sclerosis, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) and Parkinson’s disease.

To be clear, yawning is not usually a sign of disease. It’s usually just a sign you’re human.

much adult material he has been exposed to or how mature he is for his age. But I believe the “birds and bees” talk should be an ongoing dialogue rather than one speech.

Children should know the correct terms for their body parts, and what “private” means so they can communicate effectively. I don’t think it’s harmful for children to know where puppies, kittens and baby birds come from. In another conversation, they should know what “pregnant” means.

Your son also should know if he has any questions, he can come to you and his father and get straight answers. The question, “How does the baby get there?” will probably come in another year or two. And when it is asked, he should be answered in a straightforward manner.

DEAR ABBY has been two years, and I Jeanne haven’t been Phillips able to get over my first love. I just graduated from high school and I’ll soon be 18, but I still can’t get used to the idea he’s gone. When we broke up, he made me feel like dirt.

We had been a couple since my freshman year, and he dumped me at the beginning of my junior year because I didn’t want to give him my virginity. Later I discovered he had been cheating on me with my best friend.

Please help. – Can’t Move On Dear Can’t Move On: Why did you allow him to make you feel like “dirt”? Be glad you didn’t have sex with him. If you had, he probably would have cheated on you anyway.

You have your whole life ahead of you.

Please don’t waste one more second of it looking over your shoulder and pining for someone who would punish you for hanging onto your values. You did the right thing, and you should have no regrets.

Dear Abby: I have a 7-year-old son who seems to be growing up faster than I would like at times. With today’s music, video games, TV and movies, there are some things regarding sex I can’t prevent him from seeing or learning if I haven’t screened the contents.

I realize my son knows more than I would like for a child his age to know. Because of this, my husband thinks it’s time to have the “birds and the bees” talk. I’m not ready to have that talk, and I don’t believe my son is at an age to have this talk, either.

My husband is a psych major who never fails to remind me how knowledgeable he thinks he is as he tries to convince me our son is ready. I know one day my son will be curious about his body, but is now that time?

Am I wrong in thinking he’s too young? – Not

EVE'S CLEANING ✦ RESIDENTIAL Works Independently, Exc Ref. 630-430-1523 Say this prayer nine times a day, on the eighth day

HANDYMAN

Anything to do with Wood

We can Fix or Replace Doors and Windows Charles Dickens wrote, “Take nothing on its looks; take everything on evidence. There’s no better rule.”

Sometimes, though, the apparent evidence suggests one approach, but later you realize you have been misled by an opponent, by accident or intentionally. Today’s deal from a social game is an example.

The bidding was debatable and misleading. West could have made a two-spade weak jump overcall on the first round. North’s two-diamond rebid was fourth-suit game-forcing.

Then, he might have jumped to four hearts over three clubs to indicate a minimum game-force with three-card heart support. Over South’s four-club control-bid, North’s four no-trump was Roman Key Card Blackwood.

South’s reply denied the heart queen but showed one ace and the heart king, or two aces. North then bid a slam that could have been off two cashing aces.

However, the auction affected West’s lead. Believing that his partner was aceless, West did not select his singleton, which would have defeated the slam. Instead, he led his ace.

To make the slam, South had to avoid two trump losers. If the suit was splitting 3-2, there was no problem. If it was 5-0, there was no chance. But what about 4-1?

Declarer played a diamond to the king and led a low heart from the board. Here, the ace appeared. But if declarer’s king had held, he would have returned a low heart to dummy’s queen. He would have made the slam whenever possible.

Area sends 6 teams to quarterfinals for first time

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com Cary-Grove, Johnsburg and Prairie Ridge held high seeds and were considered favorites in their second-round football playoff games this weekend.

Marian Central, although a lower seed, also was favored because of its strong schedule.

When lower-seeded teams Huntley (No. 24 in Class 8A) and Jacobs (No. 28 in 7A) also won, it marked a first for area football teams as six of them will move on to the quarterfi-

nals. The previous best for Northwest Herald-area teams came when five teams made it to the quarterfinals in 2009 and 2010.

The Fox Valley Conference has established itself as one that can battle with most, thanks in large part to the success of C-G and Prairie Ridge. This season, the FVC appeared to be stronger than ever, and the playoff success backs that up.

No. 1-seeded Prairie Ridge continued to roll through its season at

Huntley defeated Fremd, 38-30, Saturday and is the first area team to win two playoff games in the state’s largest class.

Jacobs will make its first quarterfinal appearance since 1979 after upsetting No. 12 Batavia, 28-14, Saturday. The Golden Eagles will host No. 4 Fenwick. This is the first time Jacobs has won two playoff games in a season.

No. 14-seeded Marian Central defeated No. 6 Hillcrest, 30-14, and is one of only two remaining teams from the tough East Suburban Catholic Conference. Benet beat Normal, 38-14, in 7A. No. 2-seeded Johnsburg beat Manteno, 49-35, Friday and advances to the quarterfinals for the second time in school history.

Talk about revenge: Prairie Ridge appeared to unleash a lot of pent-up frustration on Montini on Saturday afternoon in its second-round playoff victory. The Wolves led the Broncos, 27-13, last year before losing, 35-27, in a Class 6A semifinal.

Montini went on to win state.

Wolves coach Chris Schremp said that loss gave his players a lot of offseason motivation.

“It’s been a year of hard work,” Schremp said. “Our kids were pretty driven in the offseason, remembering how bad we felt after the game here last year.

We knew we had to play these guys again, it was a culmination of a lot of hard work and dedication over this past year.”

Prairie Ridge played a practically flawless first half and took a 40-point lead on the defending champs, which produced a running clock in the third quarter.

Despite the disappointing loss and the end of a seven-year string of playing in state championship games, Montini lineman Joe Spivak showed great respect.

Spivak was the first through the hand-

Injury update: Coming off an ankle injury suffered in Huntley’s Class 8A playoff opener against Stevenson, it was unclear how much defensive end Olalere Oladipo would play Saturday.

The ankle still appeared to be bothering Oladipo in the 38-30 win over Fremd.

He played sparingly. When the Raiders were on defense, Oladipo was subbed in and out, ultimately watching from the sideline a little bit more than half the time.

Huntley coach Matt Zimolzak expects Oladipo will do his best to return to the field against defending 8A state champion Loyola next week. “[He] was definitely not as good as he could have been today,” Zimolzak said. “I think this week we’ll keep pushing him.

He’s a competitor, and he’s going to push through whatever injury he has.”

What stands in its way? Another 11-0 squad, Genoa-Kingston.

The teams have played two common opponents. Johnsburg’s wins over Richmond-Burton and Stillman Valley (53-0 and 47-0, respectively) look more impressive on paper than Genoa-Kingston’s (286 over Richmond-Burton, 34-7 over Stillman Valley), but both were solid wins for the Cogs.

The former Big Northern Conference East Division opponents will clash for the first time since Oct. 2, 2015.

“Our team cannot get cocky,” Johnsburg running back Alex Peete said. “Stay humble. We’re going to be, hopefully, making history next week if we beat G-K.” If the Skyhawks can do that, they could see a semifinal matchup against their recent playoff nemesis: Chicago Phillips.

The defending 4A state champions have knocked Johnsburg out of the playoffs in the second round in each of the past two seasons.

NEW YORK – Quite a run at the New York City Marathon for Mary Keitany. Pretty swift debut for Ghirmay Ghebreslassie, too.

Keitany won the race for the third straight time Sunday, pulling away with more than 10 miles to go and breezing home to the finish line in Central Park.

At 20, Ghebreslassie became the youngest men’s winner in this event. Alberto Salazar (1980) and Tom Fleming (1973) won as 22-year-olds.

Ghebreslassie was the first native of Eritrea to win the New York marathon. He finished his debut in 2 hours, 7 minutes, 51 seconds.

Keitany defended her title in 2:24:26, one second behind her time last year. She beat countrywoman Sally Kipyego by almost four minutes and became the first woman to win this race three times in a row since Grete Waitz took five straight from 1982-86.

Molly Huddle of the United States was third in 2:28:13 in her marathon debut.

4 BLACKHAWKS 4, STARS 3 (OT)

Hossa’s OT goal extends win streak to 6

By BRIAN SANDALOW

BLACKHAWKS 4, STARS 3 (OT)

For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – The plot was familiar.

The main players were familiar.

So was the result.

Marian Hossa scored the winner with 28.7 seconds left in overtime to give the Blackhawks a 4-3 win Sunday over the Dallas Stars. Jonathan Toews had a goal and two assists, Artem Anisimov stretched his career-best point streak to 11 games, Patrick Kane also scored, and the Hawks overcame a late tying goal in the teams’ second game in two nights.

The Hawks led, 3-2, until the 18:40 mark of the third when Gemel Smith redirected a shot past Scott Darling to even the score and send the game to overtime.

After killing a Kane penalty in overtime, thanks in part to a sprawling save from Darling on Patrick Eaves, Hossa scored with help from an Anisimov screen to give the Hawks the win.

“No one seems to be focused on the win streak that we’re on right now,” Toews said. “We’re just focused on every game. I think that’s a good thing that we’ve got going as well.”

The Hawks had been down 2-0 midway through the second before scoring the next three goals, continuing an ongoing theme for this team. The start was slow, the result ended up good, this time leading to their sixth straight win and a sweep of the home-and-home from Dallas.

“It’s tough to say one reason, but

The Blackhawks’ Artem Anisimov celebrates in front of Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen after Marian Hossa scored a goal in overtime Sunday at the United Center. The Hawks won, 4-3.

I think when the games go on we are in a better rhythm, and I think we are playing better than (at) the start,” Hossa said. “That’s the reason, but I think we have to keep improving (and) have better starts because that’s as important as finishing.”

Down, 2-1, after Kane’s second-period goal, the Hawks scored twice in 56 sec-

onds early in the third to take the lead.

Toews tied the score at the 3:39 mark when he directed a slick Hossa pass past Kari Lehtonen. Toews then set up the go-ahead goal by driving to the net and firing the puck off Lehtonen’s pads, with Anisimov sending the rebound into the net for the lead.

Although that lead didn’t hold up, the

Hawks were able to come away with two more points.

“I think there’s a lot of positives to take away,” Toews said. “I think we’re relying more and more on some young guys in key situations. Four lines are getting involved in getting their minutes up. We’re getting contributions from everyone.”

The Hawks did, however, get some bad news on a night they extended their run.

With 6:37 left in the second period, promising rookie Tyler Motte was engaged with the Stars’ Radek Faksa and went into the boards. After struggling to get up, Motte barely was able to put weight on his left leg and headed straight to the dressing room and did not return.

HAWKS NOTES

Desjardins healthy again, but he remains spectator

By BRIAN SANDALOW For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – Andrew Desjardins was ready to play Sunday night. Joel Quenneville saw no reason to mess with a mix that had won five straight games.

Desjardins, who was activated off injured reserve Saturday, didn’t play Sunday when the Blackhawks hosted the Dallas Stars. After missing the start of the season because of a lower-body injury, Desjardins had been expected to make his debut Sunday.

Instead, the 30-year-old forward sat, with the Hawks’ game Wednesday in St. Louis a possibility for his return.

“It was a tough decision, but we’re going to go with the same group,” Quenneville said. “I thought [Saturday] night was a little bit more consistent, had some real good stretches as

the game progressed, as well. A little more complete than we’ve seen.”

Quenneville stressed Desjardins was healthy enough to play.

No reason to rest: Quenneville was asked before Sunday’s game, because it was the second half of a back-to-back, whether it might have been an opportunity to rest an older player or two.

He sounded hesitant to sit anybody just to give them rest this early. As he said, things happen during games that could lead to more rest or more shifts.

“Every game’s different,” Quenneville said. “Once the game starts, the back-to-back games, you’re playing to win the game. The score and the play is going to dictate ice time and the situations as well.”

But it’s not easy to even predict that, so Quenneville is playing his guys and looking for points.

“Tough to forecast going into games and having that luxury early in the year is something that I don’t think you think too much about resting guys right now,” Quenneville said. “You’re looking to try to win.”

Evaluating Schmaltz: Nick Schmaltz hasn’t lit up the scoresheet (one goal, two assists entering Sunday), but he has shown flashes when he’s noticed on the ice. He also hasn’t played a ton (10:45 a game), although Quenneville has seen some progress with his ability to keep the puck and defensive responsibilities.

“Young players, they’re accustomed to playing big minutes in different situations,” Quenneville said. “I think he’s growing in some as he’s gone along.”

That growth might lead to more playing time soon.

“We expect him to probably get a lit-

tle more, whether it’s playing the power play or playing with some of the top guys, so it’s a work in progress with him,” Quenneville said. “He’s been fine.”

Cubs time: The Cubs’ victory tour made a stop at the United Center.

Before the national anthem, the Cubs were honored with a ceremony.

Along with the championship trophy and the obligatory W flag, present were owner Tom Ricketts, executives Crane Kenney and Colin Faulkner and players Kyle Schwarber, Mike Montgomery and Jason Heyward.

In brief: Trevor van Riemdsyk skated Sunday for the first time since suffering an apparent right arm injury Oct. 21 at Columbus. ... Former Hawks forward Patrick Sharp of the Stars missed his eighth straight game with concussion-like symptoms.

6 NFL ROUNDUP

Tate vaults Lions over Vikings in OT The ASSOCIATED PRESS

MINNEAPOLIS – Matthew Stafford threw a 28-yard touchdown pass to Golden Tate, who vaulted into the end zone in overtime to give the Detroit Lions a 22-16 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.

After Matt Prater kicked a 58-yard field goal as time expired to force overtime, Tate finished the opening drive when he ran through arm tackles by Xavier Rhodes and Harrison Smith and leaped in for the winning score.

Stafford completed 23 of 36 passes for 219 yards, two touchdowns and an interception for the Lions (5-4), who have won four of their past five games. Tate had 11 catches for 79 yards.

Sam Bradford completed 31 of 40 passes for 273 yards and a touchdown for the Vikings (5-3), who started the season 5-0 but have imploded since coming out of the bye. Stefon Diggs had a career-high 13 catches for 80 yards.

RAIDERS 30, BRONCOS 20

OAKLAND, Calif. – Latavius Murray ran for 114 yards and three touchdowns and Oakland showed it was ready for prime time, beating defending Super Bowl champion Denver on Sunday night.

In what was being billed as the biggest game in Oakland since the team went to the Super Bowl after the 2002 season, the Raiders (7-2) put together a complete effort to overpower the Broncos (6-3) and take over sole possession of first place in the AFC West.

Derek Carr threw for 184 yards and did not turn the ball over for the Raiders.

GIANTS 28, EAGLES 23

threw two touchdown passes to Michael Thomas and another to Mark Ingram, who also ran for a 75-yard score a week after being benched, and New Orleans (4-4) beat San Francisco (1-7).

Ingram, replaced by Tim Hightower during last week’s 25-20 win against Seattle after fumbling for a second straight game, scored his second straight TD for the Saints on a career-long run to answer immediately after DuJuan Harris caught a 47-yard touchdown pass from Colin Kaepernick. Ingram’s run also was the second-longest in Saints history, and he wound up with 158 yards rushing as San Francisco allowed an opposing 100-yard runner for the seventh straight game.

Three weeks after undergoing surgery on his right knee, Roethlisberger returned well ahead of schedule. Playing for the first time since Oct. 16, the 13-year veteran looked out of sync until the fourth quarter, when he directed a 75-yard drive that got the Steelers to 21-7 with 8:38 remaining.

Roethlisberger ran for a 4-yard score with 48 seconds left, but Chris Boswell botched the onside kick – barely knocking it off the tee – and Baltimore ran out the clock.

CHARGERS 43, TITANS 35

SAN DIEGO – Melvin Gordon ran for a career-high 196 yards and scored the go-ahead TD on a 1-yard run, and defensive backs Dwight Lowery and Brandon Flowers scored on turnovers by Marcus Mariota to lead the Chargers over Tennessee (4-5), which still hasn’t won in San Diego since 1990.

The Chargers (4-5) won two days before the team will ask voters to approve a billion-dollar subsidy for a new downtown stadium to replace aging Qualcomm Stadium. The measure was polling well short of the two-thirds supermajority needed to pass.

Gordon, who leads the NFL with 11 touchdowns, scored on a 1-yard run with 5:28 left in the third quarter to give the Chargers a 26-21 lead.

The Giants (5-3) won their third straight game, holding off the Eagles (4-4 after a 3-0 start) after Manning was intercepted with less than two minutes to go.

Two of Manning’s touchdowns went to Odell Beckham Jr., with the others to Roger Lewis Jr. and Sterling Shepard.

Manning moved into ninth place in yards passing with 46,428. Manning, in his 13th NFL season, threw for 257 yards against Philadelphia. He passed Vinny Testaverde, who had 46,233 yards.

20. On the ensuing kickoff , New York’s Antonio Allen was called for being offside, so the Jets had to kick again. Drake took the kickoff, found a lane and sped past the final Jet – kicker Nick Folk – into the clear.

The Dolphins (4-4) won their third game in a row, while New York (3-6) fell deeper into last place in the AFC East.

COWBOYS 35, BROWNS 10

CLEVELAND – Rookie quarterback Dak Prescott threw three touchdown passes and kept any talk for Tony Romo unnecessary, leading Dallas over winless Cleveland.

Rookie Ezekiel Elliott rushed for 92 yards and scored twice, and durable tight end Jason Witten had 134 yards receiving for the Cowboys, who are off to their best start since 2007.

Prescott has won seven straight starts since losing the season opener, and with the Cowboys (7-1) leading the NFC East and getting better, there’s no reason for the team to accelerate Romo’s return from a back injury.

The Browns (0-9) dropped their franchise-record 12th straight game going back to last season and are 3-27 in their past 30. They also started 0-9 in 1975.

LOS ANGELES – Cam Newton persevered through five sacks to pass for 225 yards and a touchdown, and Carolina’s defense shut down Los Angeles.

Greg Olsen caught a touchdown pass in the first half, and Graham Gano added two fourth-quarter field goals for the Panthers (3-5), who won their second straight after a four-game skid.

COLTS 31, PACKERS 26

By GENARO C. ARMAS The Associated Press

AP photo

The Colts’ Jordan Todman runs back the opening kickoff for a touchdown against PROTECTING LUCK the Packers on Sunday in Green Bay, Wis. The Colts, who had allowed an NFLwere and what the stakes were. It’s a whole different world today, right now,” Colts coach Chuck Pagano said.

Rodgers’ 3-yard touchdown pass to Randall Cobb with 3:29 left got Green Bay (4-4) within five, capping a 14-point spurt in four-plus minutes. Rodgers finished 26 of 43 for 297 yards with three scores and an interception.

Luck responded on the Colts’ next

worst 31 sacks coming into the game, gave their quarterback decent protection. Luck was sacked twice.

Luck maneuvered out of other tight spots, including a 7-yard scramble on a bootleg on third-and-1 with 37 seconds left in the second quarter. He deftly engineered a 15-play, 96-yard drive that ended with an 8-yard touchdown pass to Donte Moncrief with 11 seconds left to give Indianapolis a 21-10 halftime lead.

LOW ENERGY?

Familiar problems surfaced early for the Packers, who lost their second straight game. The offense had trouble getting going until the fourth quarter.

But the defense gave up at least 30 points for a second straight game, and special teams also hurt them.

Todman’s kickoff return to open the game seemed to be a Green Bay buzz-killer.

“We’ve all got to be a little mentally tougher. I don’t understand the way the sideline was after that first play. We go down, let’s get a field goal and we’ll win the game. It’s 7-3 early on. We’ve got to be a little tougher. That’s the mark of a team,” Rodgers said.

FURRY FRIEND

A persistent squirrel livened up the crowd at Lambeau Field.

The squirrel first made its appearance in the first half, then returned late in the third quarter. With the Packers driving at about the Colts’ 12, the squirrel dashed along the goal line, forcing the officials to call timeout. The squirrel finally went out of bounds, but not before causing a stir on social media.

GREEN BAY, Wis. – Jordan Todman set the tone early for the Indianapolis Colts on special teams, and Andrew Luck made the clutch throws late.

In between, the defense made just enough plays to hold off Green Bay despite the Packers’ frantic fourth quarter.

The Colts survived for a 31-26 win Sunday after letting an 18-point lead with 9:35 left almost disappear.

Todman had a 99-yard return for a touchdown on the opening kickoff, Frank Gore rushed for two touchdowns, and Luck shook off two interceptions in the first quarter to finish with 281 yards passing and a touchdown.

“Not an ideal start offensively ... from my game, the two interceptions. Like anything, you’ve got to move on,” Luck said. “The defense built up strong early, which was huge. Then made enough plays at the end to win.”

Indianapolis (4-5) heads into a bye week with a confidence-building victory after withstanding Aaron Rodgers’ comeback attempt.

“Everybody knew exactly where we

drive with what Pagano called “two unbelievable plays.”

The quarterback dodged a potential sack by blitzing safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix to throw a 20-yard pass on thirdand-10 with 3:07 left to tight end Jack Doyle.

Luck also found T.Y. Hilton for a 27yard completion on third-and-2 with 2 minutes left to put the game away. He finished 23 of 36, throwing both interceptions to safety Clinton-Dix. “We didn’t play good enough, I’m disappointed, I’m irritated, the fact that we were not sharp as a football team,” Packers coach Mike McCarthy said.

NASCAR SPRINT CUP: AAA TEXAS 500

Edwards wins rain-shortened race for Chase finale spot

By STEPHEN HAWKINS The Associated Press

FORT WORTH, Texas – Carl Edwards got the victory he desperately needed to earn a championship-contending spot in the NASCAR Sprint Cup finale, winning Sunday night at Texas in a race shortened by 41 laps because of rain after the start was delayed almost six hours.

With his fourth career win at Texas, Edwards joined Jimmie Johnson as drivers locked into the championship-contending spots in Homestead.

That leaves two spots up for grabs next weekend at Phoenix.

Edwards entered the second-to-last race before the Nov. 20 season finale eighth in points among the drivers still eligible for the championship.

“This is huge. I don’t think it’s sunk in yet. That’s all we said was needed, just a shot,” Edwards said. “Now we’re going to go to Homestead, we’re going to do what we need to do. This was a great test. We came here and did what we needed to do, we performed, and I really believe we can do that at Homestead.”

The rain-shortened victory was certainly appropriate for Edwards after how his championship Chase ended last year.

Last year’s race at Phoenix was delayed almost seven hours as a series of storms passed through the area, and then once it started under the lights was called after 218 laps. Edwards finished fifth, leaving him five points out of the final spot for the Chase finale.

Edwards’ three Joe Gibbs Racing teammates are among the six other drivers still in contention this season, and clearly not all of them can advance.

Light rain had already been falling, and plenty more was on the radar around the track, when the caution came out with 45 laps remaining of the originally scheduled 334-lap race.

All the cars were brought to pit road four laps later, and it was only a few more minutes before NASCAR declared the race over and official after 293 laps. It could have taken two hours or more to dry the track.

“We were in a bad spot if we went green again,” Edwards said. “But the last run before it rained, I think we could have held off; I’m not sure.”

This year started with some ceremonial bang for the Bears. There was a week’s worth of celebrations all over the city, a parade of sorts.

It was time to honor the ’85 Bears.

Again.

With a reunion at Soldier Field, a film debut and more, it was time to party like it was 1986. Jan. 26 marked the 30-year anniversary of the Bears’ 46-10 victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XX. With the Cubs finally attaining the seemingly unattainable – their first World Series championship in 108 years – the focus soon will shift to the 2-6 Bears.

It’s been almost a week since Game 7 and a few days since an estimated 5 million fans gathered downtown to the tune of “Go Cubs, Go.” Even the most worthy, life-changing hangovers can’t last that long.

The sobering reality for the Bears is that they now own the longest championship drought among the city’s major teams.

Thirty years isn’t depressing by Blackhawks or Cubs standards, but there’s a generation of fans in Chicago who know Mike Ditka more for his infomercials and ESPN appearances than for his coaching.

Asked when Chicago might stop rejoicing in the accomplishments of the ’85 Bears, former quarterback Jim McMahon was candid.

“Probably, not until they win again,” McMahon said in January.

So when will that be?

A season and a half into the Ryan Pace/John Fox era, the Bears are 8-16.

Marc Trestman had eight wins in his

young, talented foundation of players to win behind. It oftentimes takes losing to get it. The Bears are experiencing that now.

Finding that winning core of players involves a targeted approach to free agency. The Bears have done that in signing outside linebacker Pernell McPhee, linebacker Danny Trevathan and others.

But drafting well is everything in the NFL. Pace can’t fleece teams for a Jake Arrieta or a Kyle Hendricks.

Injuries have marred Pace’s first class, starting with receiver Kevin White. But Pace’s second class – highlighted by the performances of outside linebacker Leonard Floyd, center Cody Whitehair and running back Jordan AP file photo Howard – has offered hope.

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

What do you get the baseball team that has everything?

The short answer: pitching.

The longer answer: more pitching.

Less than a week after winning it all, claiming what 107 Cubs teams before them have been unable to reach, the World Series champs head to Phoenix this week to start the process of trying to do it all over again.

Never mind the historically disorienting nature of trying to improve a Cubs team that spent seven months – from the seaJason Hammel son opener through Game 7 of the World Series – as the best team in baseball.

Team president Theo Epstein barely had enough time for a decent “little bender” before the start of the general managers meetings Monday at the Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix.

“We finished our season technically Thursday morning, and Sunday night we’re flying for meetings,” general manager Jed Hoyer said. “The turnaround is really quick.

“We’re thankful we bring so many guys back that our moves can be very targeted this winter.”

Among those the Cubs won’t bring back is 15-game winner Jason Hammel. The Cubs on Sunday declined his $10 million option for 2017 (buying it out for $2 million), citing a decision to look for both internal and external alternatives for that spot in the starting rotation – with an emphasis on younger with multiple years of club control.

Hammel went 15-10 with a 3.83 ERA in 30 starts this season but was the odd-man out of what Epstein called “one of the best rotations in club history” when the brass set the postseason rosters. He was 33-22 with a 3.51 ERA in 78 starts over the past two seasons and half of 2014.

Left-hander Mike Montgomery, the postseason long reliever who earned the save in Game 7 Wednesday night, has been discussed as one of those alternatives almost since he

“We’re thankful we bring so many guys back that our moves can be very targeted this winter.”

Jed Hoyer

Cubs general manager was acquired from Seattle in a July trade.

Among the Cubs’ nine free agents are center fielder/leadoff man Dexter Fowler, closer Aroldis Chapman and versatile lefty reliever Travis Wood.

The Cubs aren’t expected to immediately pursue any of their free agents for next season, although Fowler will get a qualifying offer (to assure a chance for draft pick compensation).

They’re open to re-signing one or two, including Fowler, depending on how the winter market plays out.

In large part because of work the Cubs did last winter, they return a

sizeable core of their championship team.

That includes two Cy Young candidates (Jon Lester, Kyle Hendricks) among the top four starting pitchers.

It also includes two MVP candidates (Kris Bryant, Anthony Rizzo) among every starting position player returning except Fowler.

Without going outside the organization, they figure to improve defensively with regular playing time next year for 2016 rookies Willson Contreras behind the plate and Albert Almora Jr. in center field.

The top three issues to address this winter: 1. Starting pitching depth, which would be more likely to come through trade than free agency; 2. Back-end bullpen depth; 3. Center field – specifically, whether Almora can handle everyday duties, would need to platoon to be more effective; or whether the club decides it can add a veteran to lessen

“Just as it was our priority last offseason and at the deadline this year, we do need to continue to try to find starting pitching depth,” Hoyer said.

“These meetings will largely be about having a ton of conversations with teams, gathering as much information as possible.”

One additional wrinkle: MLB and the players union are in the late stages of negotiations on a new collective bargaining agreement, and teams aren’t certain what some of the changes might mean, especially for such things as draft-pick compensation for free agency losses.

A player with, say, two years of club control left, might have a certain added value under the current qualifying-offer system – but could have that value altered significantly depending on a system change.

“I do think the CBA negotiations will have an influence on the way the offseason gets started,” Hoyer said.

“How big an influence, we’re all unsure.”
