Hopefully, by sometime tonight, we’ll have clarity in the presidential race as well as congressional, state and county ones.

It’s been a long, tiresome and in some cases brutal campaign season. We have a lot of work to do, federally, statewide and locally.

LOS ANGELES – Wearing a neck brace and seated in a wheelchair, looking pale and frail, real estate heir and documentary star Robert Durst pleaded not guilty to murder Monday, more than a year and a half after a live microphone recorded him muttering, “killed them all.”

The 73-year-old Durst entered the plea during a long-awaited appearance in a Los Angeles courtroom in the death of Susan Berman in 2000. Authorities said Berman was killed to keep her from talking to investigators looking into the disappearance of Durst’s first wife.

Durst became a national name when HBO aired the documentary “The Jinx” that followed his life and cast suspicion on him involving several crimes.

TODAY’S THE DAY

Here’s what’s appearing on your ballots

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com Well, McHenry County, if you haven’t voted yet, Tuesday is your last chance.

Polls open at 6 a.m. and close at 7 p.m.

And if you’re planning a quickie wedding or have some other need for the services of the McHenry County Clerk’s Office, be advised that it is closed to all but election-related business.

As one final reminder, here is a list from top to bottom of every race that county residents will see on their ballots.

If you want to narrow it down, visit the county clerk’s website at http://shawurl. com/2wax, where you can generate a copy of what your ballot will look like based on your address.

All Illinois voters first will face a question to amend the Illinois Constitution to forbid transportation infrastructure funds from being spent on anything else.

They then will be asked to vote for president and U.S. Senate.

As for U.S. House representatives, vot-

ers in Algonquin Township will choose their representative for the 6th Congressional District, while the rest of McHenry County will elect their representative in the 14th Congressional District.

Voters also will elect the state comptroller in a special election – although the seat currently is occupied, it was appointed after the death of the incumbent just after her 2014 election.

Voters in the 26th Illinois Senate District and the 32nd Illinois Senate District will elect their representatives in the Illinois Senate. Contested races for the Illinois House also face voters in the 63rd House District and the 66th House District. Incumbent Republicans in the 52nd, 64th and 65th districts are running unopposed.

This election is the first in which McHenry County voters will directly elect the McHenry County Board chairman.

Contested races also are on the ballot for state’s attorney and recorder. Incumbent

Woodstock finds buyer for blighted home Lafontaine Enterprises bought the historic district structure for $3,000

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A local remodeling company has bought a dilapidated, cityowned property in Woodstock’s historic district and plans to remodel.

The city put out a request in April for qualifications to find someone to renovate the 1,600-square-foot, single-family home at 315 W. Judd St. The house dates to the 1860s and has been a source of con-

tention with neighbors because of its poor condition, according to the city.

Woodstock acquired the property in March and paid about $3,000 in legal fees, which is how much the property sold for, City Planner Nancy Baker said.

Woodstock-based Lafontaine Enterprises closed on the property last month and has been remodeling the interior of the home. The Historic Preservation Commission will hear a request Monday for exterior work, she said.

“They have cleaned it out and done some preliminary work necessary to see what conditions exist,” she said. “Now they are going to make a request to the commission for approval of work on the outside of the house.”

The city must approve any changes to the outside of the house because it’s in the historic district, she said.

Representatives from Lafontaine Enterprises were not immediately available for comment.

McHenry man accused of stealing lotto tickets, leading police on chase

25-year-old allegedly broke free after arrest and caused crash in Pennsylvania

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com McHENRY – A McHenry man was arrested in Pennsylvania after police said he stole lottery tickets and led officers on a chase before he was apprehended hours later.

The Northern Lancaster County Regional Police Department was dispatched about 11 p.m. Sunday to Sheetz mini market, 710 Furnace Hills Pike, Lititz, Pennsylvania, for a report of a retail theft, police said.

When police arrived, they said, they observed Jonathan Goza, 25, allegedly reach over the counter and take lottery

tickets. Police said he also had tickets sticking out of his pants pocket. Goza was placed under arrest and charged with theft, but he broke free, jumped into his car and crashed into another occupied vehicle in Lititz, police said. No one was injured in the crash.

Goza fled from the Jonathan crash and was located Goza several hours later in a garage Monday morning. He was charged with retail theft, resisting arrest, wrecking an unoccupied vehicle and reckless driving, police said.

LOCAL BRIEF Nature Arts and Crafts Show in West Dundee seeks vendors

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Adult Correctional Facility is in compliance after undergoing a three-day audit conducted by the American Correctional Association last week, sheriff’s officials said.

The audit committee reported the jail met 100 percent of the mandatory standards and 97.9 percent of the nonmandatory standards, according to a news release from the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

The three-person committee spent 11 hours both Tuesday and Wednesday of last week, as well as three hours Thursday, touring the facility, talking to staff and inmates, reviewing files

and generating data for its report.

Sheriff Bill Prim said that based on the results, the American Correctional Association Commission on Accreditation likely will renew the jail’s three-year accreditation when it comes to a decision in January. The accreditation reduces liability insurance costs, provides defense against lawsuits and provides a safer environment for staff and offenders.

“This was an outstanding conclusion to an outstanding effort, and I am very proud of our corrections staff,” Prim said in a news release.

The McHenry County Jail was in compliance of all 59 mandatory standards and met 283 of 289 nonmandatory standards, according to a news release.

• ELECTION DAY

Continued from page A3 Republicans running for auditor, circuit clerk and coroner are running unopposed, as is one candidate for circuit court judge.

Voters also will elect two representatives on the County Board – all six districts have contested races of two Republican and two Democratic candidates.

A number of mostly advisory referendums also await county voters.

There are two countywide advisory referendums – one asks whether the County Board should shrink from 24 members after the 2020 U.S. Census, while the other gauges support for a slew of proposed reforms aimed at curtailing the influence of money in politics.

Local referendums also will appear on the ballots in six municipalities.

Advisory referendums in Lakewood, Cary and Fox River Grove will ask voters whether any taxing body located within municipal boundaries should have to seek voter approval by referendum before increasing its property tax levy. Voters in Crystal Lake face an advisory referendum as to whether the city should borrow $30.1 million to build a new public library.

Born: October 4, 1935 Died: November 5, 2016 Helen L. Kaiser, age 81, of McHenry, passed away at her home early Saturday morning, November 5, 2016, surrounded by her loving family.

She was born October 4, 1935 in Crystal Lake to Eduard T. and Agnes (Rombough) Kriegel. Raised and educated in Crystal Lake, Helen graduated from Crystal Lake High School and, after graduation, first worked as a candystriper at Woodstock Hospital. She was introduced to her future husband, Floyd Kaiser, as a friend of her sister, Lorraine.

Helen went on to marry the love of her life, Floyd, on January 29, 1955 at St. Paul’s Church in Crystal Lake. Earlier this year, they celebrated their devotion to each at their 61st anniversary.

Helen’s greatest joy in life was the fulfillment she received in her role of loving wife and mother. Only after her children were older (in the late ’60s/early ’70s), Helen took a part-time job outside of her home, capitalizing on her love of flowers working at Countryside Floral in Crystal Lake.

Extensive travel was also a highlight of her life. While her children were growing up, favorite memories were from many of the family camping trips throughout the United States. For many years, a favorite annual trip was attending the Covered Bridge Festival in Park County, IN. Helen and Floyd also loved to spend winters in Panama City Beach, FL. International travel destinations were added, especially after Floyd retired. Some of her favorite destinations were trips to Egypt, Australia, Germany, and the Panama Canal.

While at home, Helen enjoyed gardening and tending to her flowers, as well as knitting, crocheting, needlepoint. She treasured her collectibles representing her travels. Most importantly, Helen’s legacy was her lifetime of genuine love and devotion to her cherished husband and her entire family.

Survivors include Floyd, her husband of 61 years; four children, Danny (Sandy) Kaiser of Johnsburg, Jodie (Larry) Dodge of Johnsburg, Karin (Don F.) Novak of Johnsburg, and Diane Kaiser of Urbana; six grandchildren, Dawn, Cheryle, Melissa, Aimee, Benjamin, and Erica; seven great-grandchildren, Brianna, Cameron, Julianna, Eric, Cian, Colin, and Kinley; a sister, Alice (John) Adamson of Poplar Grove and two brothers, George (the late Esther) Kriegel of Harvard and John (Shirley) Kriegel

Ex-attorney general Janet Reno dies

By CURT ANDERSON The Associated Press

MIAMI – Janet Reno, who was the first woman to serve as U.S. attorney general but also became the epicenter of multiple political storms during the Clinton administration, died early Monday. She was 78.

Reno died from complications of Parkinson’s disease, her goddaughter Gabrielle D’Alemberte said, adding that Reno spent her final days at home in Miami surrounded by family and friends.

A former Miami prosecutor who famously told reporters, “I don’t do spin,” Reno served nearly eight years as attorney general under President Bill Clinton, the longest stint in a century.

Her sister, Maggy Reno Hurchalla, told The Associated Press that Clinton called over the weekend said to “tell Janet I love her” and that many others from her career visited or called, including former Florida governor and Sen. Bob Graham. Bill and Hillary Clinton issued a statement praising Reno’s tenure and President Barack Obama called her “an American original” in his own statement.

“When Janet Reno arrived in Washington in 1993, the city had never seen anyone like her before – and hasn’t since,” Obama said. “Her legacy lives on in a generation of lawyers she inspired, the ordinary lives she touched, and a nation that is more just.”

One of the administration’s most recognizable and polarizing figures, Reno faced criticism early on for the deadly raid on the Branch Davidian compound at Waco, Texas, where sect leader David Koresh and some 80 followers perished.

She was known for deliberating slowly, publicly and in a blunt manner.

Reno frequently said “the buck stops with me,” borrowing the mantra from President Harry S. Truman.

After Waco, Reno figured into some of the Clinton administration’s controversies and scandals, including Whitewater, Filegate, bungling at the FBI laboratory, Monica Lewinsky, alleged Chinese nuclear spying and questionable campaign financing in the 1996 Clinton-Gore re-election.

In the spring of 2000, Reno enraged her hometown’s Cuban-American community when she authorized the armed seizure of 5-year-old Elian Gonzalez. He was taken from the Little Havana home of his Miami relatives so he could be returned to his father in Cuba.

During her tenure, the Justice Department prosecuted the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing case, captured the “Unabomber” Theodore Kaczynski that same year and investigated the 1993 terrorist attack on New York’s World Trade Center. The department also

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Janet Reno gestures during her Sept. 17, 2002, concession speech at her Miami Lakes, Fla., campaign headquarters. Reno, the first woman to serve as U.S. attorney general and the epicenter of several political storms during the Clinton administration, died early Monday. She was 78. filed a major antitrust lawsuit against Microsoft Corp. and Reno was a strong advocate for protecting abortion clinics from violence.

Attorney General Loretta Lynch praised Reno’s integrity, and called her a trailblazer and “one of the most effective, decisive and well-respected leaders” in Justice Department history.

Lynch said Reno applied one test: “to do what the law and the facts required.

She accepted the results of that test regardless of which way the political winds were blowing.”

Miami U.S. Attorney Wifredo Ferrer, who worked for Reno in Washington from 1995-2000, said, “Even if you agreed or disagreed with her, you knew she was coming from a place of integrity.” He added, “Through her work, through her decisions, she exhibited a lot of strength and a lot of courage.”

After leaving Washington, Reno returned to Florida and ran unsuccessfully for Florida governor in 2002 but lost in a Democratic primary marred by voting problems.

Born July 21, 1938, Janet Wood Reno was the daughter of two newspaper reporters and the eldest of four siblings.

She grew up on the edge of the Everglades in a cypress and brick homestead built by her mother and returned there after leaving Washington. Her late brother Robert Reno was a longtime

columnist for Newsday on Long Island.

After graduating from Cornell University with a degree in chemistry, Reno became one of 16 women in Harvard Law School’s Class of 1963. Reno, who stood over 6 feet tall, later said she wanted to become a lawyer “because I didn’t want people to tell me what to do.”

In 1993, Clinton tapped her as the first woman to lead the Justice Department after his first two choices – also women – were withdrawn because both had hired illegal immigrants as nannies. Reno was 54.

“It’s an extraordinary experience, and I hope I do the women of America proud,” Reno said after she won confirmation.

A little more than a month of taking office, however, Reno became embroiled in controversy with the raid on the Branch Davidian compound near Waco.

On Feb. 28, 1993, before Reno was confirmed as attorney general, U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agents executing a search warrant made a surprise raid on the compound.

Gunfire erupted, killing four agents and six members of the religious sect.

That led to a 51-day standoff, ending April 19, 1993, when the complex caught fire and burned to the ground. The government claimed that the Davidians

committed suicide. Survivors said the blaze was started by tear gas rounds fired into the compound by government tanks, and that agents shot at some who tried to flee. Reno had authorized the use of the tear gas to end the standoff and later called the day the worst of her life.

“It was a dangerous situation,” Reno said during a 2005 lecture at Duke University. “The tragedy is that we will never know what was the right thing to do.”

In 1995 Reno was diagnosed with Parkinson’s after noticing a trembling in her left hand. She said from the beginning that the diagnosis wouldn’t impair her job performance. And critics – both Republicans and Democrats – didn’t give her a pass because of it.

Republicans argued she should have sought appointment of an independent counsel to investigate allegations of Clinton-Gore fundraising violations.

Democrats grumbled that she failed to act as a team player.

As attorney general, Reno often was teased by late-night talk show hosts for her unassuming appearance and no-nonsense attitude. Comedian Will Ferrell memorialized her in a recurring “Saturday Night Live” skit called “Janet Reno’s Dance Party” and Reno visited the skit the night she left the Justice Department in January 2001.

STATE

Pricey legislative races dominate Election Day

By IVAN MORENO

The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Democrats in Illinois are counting on a big victory by Hillary Clinton to carry them to important wins in the statehouse, U.S. Senate and a pricey contest for comptroller.

Republicans, meanwhile, are angling for more influence in the Democrat-controlled Legislature with the help of wealthy GOP Gov. Bruce Rauner, who has invested unprecedented amounts of money on down-ballot races that will affect what he’s able to achieve in the last two years of his term.

Here’s a guide to Tuesday’s action:

Presidential race

Barring a major upset, Clinton is expected to easily pick up her birth state’s 20 electoral college votes.

Since 2000, Illinois has voted for the Democratic presidential candidate and the state is not considered to be in play this year. And Illinois Republicans have tried to distance themselves from their party’s firebrand candidate, Donald Trump. Rauner won’t even say his name and has made it clear he doesn’t endorse him.

Although the presidential contest lacks drama, the expected large turn-

Election officials: Illinois early voting breaks records

CHICAGO – Illinois set a record for the number of voters who went to the polls ahead of Tuesday’s presidential election – even before Monday, the last day of early voting.

Nearly 1.3 million people cast in-person early ballots through Sunday, surpassing turnout in previous presidential contests, according to totals released Monday by the State Board of Elections. Roughly 1 million people cast early in-person ballots in 2008, or about 18 percent of all votes, and nearly 1.2 million people did so in 2012, or roughly 22 percent.

The overall number of voters who cast ballots before Election Day was even higher when all types of ballots were

out could impact some high-stakes state races.

Crucial Senate race

On a national level, the parties will be watching the race between Republican U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk and Democratic U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth, which is among a handful that will deSen. termine which party Mark Kirk controls the Senate next year.

Kirk, a first-term senator, has been cast as one of the more vulnerable Republicans. Polls have shown Duckworth with a comfortable lead, Rep. Tammy but Kirk maintains the Duckworth margin is a lot closer than people think.

He’s been dogged by several gaffes, including one last month during a televised debate. Duckworth talked about how her family has “served this nation in uniform going back to the Revolution.” Kirk responded that he had forgotten that the congresswoman’s “parents came all the way from Thailand to serve George Washington.” He apologized the next day after critics said his remarks were “racist” and offensive.

added in – more than 1.6 million through Sunday. Those ballots included by-mail and grace period registration, which allows people to register and vote at the same time. By comparison, over 1.3 million people voted before the 2008 election and over 1.5 million did in 2012, according to state election officials.

Election officials credited the surge to spirited campaigns, including the presidential contest, and a longer early voting season, which lasted 40 days this year.

In previous years, the early voting period was about three weeks or less.

Nearly 1 in 4 Illinois teachers have 10-plus absent days

CHICAGO – Data show almost one in four public school teachers in Illinois miss more than 10 days of the school year.

The annual Illinois Report Card shows that 23.5 percent of public school teachers are absent more than 10 days in the school year, the Chicago Tribune reported. Some administrators and teachers union officials have questioned whether

Quest for a veto-proof Legislature

Democrats have supermajorities in the Illinois Legislature – 71-47 in the House and 39-20 in the Senate – but it hasn’t been enough to overrule the governor during an epic 16-month budget standoff that’s led to funding cuts for social services and higher education.

If Democrats can increase their numbers, they can impose their will on Rauner and he’ll have no chance of achieving his proposals to lessen the influence of unions while making the state friendlier to businesses.

While nearly impossible to get majorities in either chamber, Republicans’ goal is to decrease the Democrats’ numbers to give Rauner more bargaining power and make it difficult for his vetoes to be overturned.

Rauner has contributed more than $30 million to GOP campaign committees to accomplish his goals, and Democrats have been forced to keep up. The result? Nearly a dozen legislative contests where the candidates have combined to surpass the $2 million mark in spending money.

Those races include Republican Rep. Michael McAuliffe versus Democrat Merry Marwig in Chicago; Democratic Rep. Kate Cloonen against Republican Lindsay Parkhurst in the north-central Illinois city of Kankakee; and Demo-

the figures are accurate and how they were calculated.

The teacher absence rates ranged widely at some 3,600 public schools, with nearly 1,600 schools, mostly in the Chicago area, faring worse than the state average.

U.S. Department of Education cites research that says children don’t do as well when teachers are absent more than 10 days in a school year. Districts also end up spending money to pay substitutes.

CHICAGO – Chicago’s celebration of the Cubs’ World Series victory is continuing with the decking out of buses and trains with the team’s logo and colors.

On Monday, the buses serving the line that passes Wrigley Field will feature the blue “W’’ and a Cubs logo down the side.

Four train cars on the Red Line, which also serves the ballpark, will get the same treatment.

Pricey comptroller contest

With each party elbowing the other for every possible edge, the race between Comptroller Leslie Munger and challenger Susana Mendoza has triggered a spending frenzy.

The parties have combined to put more than $9.2 million into the campaigns, with Munger getting $6.8 million of that.

The role of the comptroller, who writes the state’s checks, has takLeslie en on more prominence Munger during the Illinois’ budget standoff because the office gets to prioritize who gets paid and who has to wait.

Mayors of Chicago, Cleveland make donations

CHICAGO – The mayors of Chicago and Cleveland said they’re each donating $1,000 to youth baseball organizations in the other’s city after the World Series.

Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel made the announcement Sunday evening. It means that Emanuel will give $1,000 to The Historic League Park in Cleveland and Jackson will give $1,000 to the Playball initiative run by the Chicago Parks Foundation.

The two mayors didn’t make a friendly wager on this year’s World Series. Instead, both said they’re making the donations to honor the sportsmanship and spirit shown by both teams and fans.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Killer gets life sentence for L.A. airport rampage

LOS ANGELES – A gunman who killed a federal transportation security officer and wounded three other people during a rampage at Los Angeles International Airport was sentenced to life plus 60 years in prison Monday for the attack that crippled the nation’s second-busiest airport and disrupted travel nationwide.

Paul Ciancia, 26, had faced the mandatory life sentence for murdering a federal officer, but prosecutors also sought the additional 60-year term because he showed no remorse and still clings to the beliefs that led to the violence in 2013.

Addressing the court about what led up to the attack, Ciancia said that in 2012 he was sick of life and decided to kill himself.

“I knew exactly how I wanted to die. I was going to take up arms against my own government,” he said.

Police gather to mourn Des Moines sergeant

WEST DES MOINES, Iowa – About 1,500 law enforcement officers joined more than 1,000 other mourners Monday at a funeral for a one of two Iowa police officers who were fatally shot just minutes apart last week.

Troves of uniformed officers slowly filed into a West Des Moines church to remember Sgt. Anthony Beminio, the 38-year-old

sergeant who was killed early Wednesday while sitting in his patrol car. His death came minutes after Officer Justin Martin was fatally shot in nearby Urbandale. An Urbandale man has been charged in both killings.

Des Moines Police Chief Dana Wingert told mourners about Beminio’s commitment to his job, other officers and the community. In all his interactions with co-workers and citizens, Wingert said Beminio was authentic and enthusiastic.

“Everything Tony did, he did from the heart,” Wingert said.

Philly transit strike ends, avoiding election impact

PHILADELPHIA – The city’s crippling weeklong transit strike ended early Monday, ensuring that all buses, trolleys and subways will be up and running by Election Day. The Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority and the union representing about 4,700 transit workers announced a tentative agreement before daybreak.

By afternoon, limited service was restored on bus and trolley routes, and operating subway trains were making all stops.

SEPTA said it usually takes 24 hours to have all buses, trolleys and subway trains running after a shutdown, but it was on track to be in full service by Tuesday morning.

Donald Trump takes a break from speaking to compare his face to a mask during a rally Monday at the Sarasota Fairgrounds in Sarasota, Fla.

Clinton, Trump sprint to finish in final appearances The ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA – Closing out a wildly unpredictable White House race, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump blitzed through battleground states Monday in a final bid to energize supporters. Clinton, backed by an emotional appeal from Barack Obama, urged voters to embrace a “hopeful, inclusive, bighearted America,” while Trump vowed to “beat the corrupt system.”

The candidates rallied voters late into the night, a frenzied end to a bitter election year that has laid bare the nation’s deep economic and cultural divides. Clinton and Trump were both nostalgic at times, looking back fondly at a campaign that has put each on the brink of the presidency.

Clinton campaigned with confidence, buoyed by FBI Director James Comey’s announcement Sunday that he would not recommend criminal charges against her following a new email review. The FBI inquiry had sapped a surging Clinton momentum at a crucial moment in the race, though she still heads into Election Day with multiple paths to the 270 Electoral College votes needed to become the nation’s first female president.

Clinton closed her campaign alongside the last two Democrats to occupy the Oval Office, Obama and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, as well as first lady Michelle Obama.

In a nod to the deep divisions that await the next president, Clinton said she’d come to “regret deeply how angry the tone of the campaign became.” She cast the choice facing voters Tuesday as a “test of our time.”

“We know enough about my opponent, we know who he is,” Clinton said, addressing tens

of thousands of people sprawled across Philadelphia’s Independence Mall. “The real question for us is what kind of country we want to be.”

Obama’s address amounted to a valedictory for a president whose popularity has grown in his final year in office.

“America, I’m betting on you one more time,” Obama said. “I am betting that tomorrow you will reject fear and choose hope.”

Trump, who sped through five rallies Monday, recalled the rivals he’d vanquished and how far he’s come since launching his improbable candidacy. As he surveyed the crowd in Scranton, Pennsylvania, he declared, “It’s been a long journey.”

Still, Trump was aggressive to the end, slamming Clinton as the “face of failure.” Having made the new FBI review a centerpiece of his closing case to voters, he argued that the Democrat was being protected by a “totally rigged system.”

“You have one magnificent chance to beat the corrupt system and deliver justice,” Trump said. “Do not let this opportunity slip away.”

The comments were a reminder that Comey’s news, delivered in a letter to lawmakers on Sunday, was a doubled-edged sword for Clinton. While it vindicated her claims that the emails would not yield new evidence, it ensured that a controversy that has dogged her campaign from the start would follow her through Election Day. Across the country, nearly 24 million early ballots were cast under the shadow of Comey’s initial announcement of a new email review.

That number represents about half of the nearly 45 million people who had cast votes by Monday, according to Associated Press data.

Dozens of buildings damaged in Okla. quake

By JUSTIN JUOZAPAVICIUS The Associated Press

CUSHING, Okla. – Dozens of buildings sustained “substantial damage” when a 5.0 magnitude earthquake struck an Oklahoma town that’s home to one of the world’s key oil hubs, but officials said Monday that no damage has been reported at the oil terminal.

Cushing City Manager Steve Spears said 40 to 50 buildings were damaged in Sunday’s earthquake, which was the third in Oklahoma this year with a magnitude of 5.0 or greater. No major injuries have been reported, and Spears said the damage included cracks to buildings and fallen bricks and facades.

Oklahoma has had thousands of earthquakes in recent years, with nearly all traced to the underground injection of wastewater left over from oil and gas production. Sunday’s quake was centered 1 mile west of Cushing and about 25 miles south of where a magnitude 4.3 quake forced a shutdown of several wells last week. Some longtime Cushing residents said Monday they’ve become accustomed to the unsettled ground beneath their feet.

Others shrugged it off as a cost of doing

Damage caused by Sunday night’s 5.0 magnitude earthquake is seen Monday in Cushing, Okla. business living next to an oil hub.

Fearing aftershocks, police cordoned off older parts of the city about 50 miles northeast of Oklahoma City to keep gawkers away late Sunday, and geologists confirmed that several small quakes have rumbled in the area. Spears said an assisted living community had been evacuated after

damage was reported. The Cushing Public School District canceled Monday classes.

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation reported Sunday night that no highway or bridge damage was found within a 15-mile radius of the earthquake’s epicenter.

The quake struck at 7:44 p.m. Sun-

day and was felt as far away as Iowa, Illinois and Texas. The U.S. Geological Survey initially said Sunday’s quake was of magnitude 5.3, but later lowered the reading to 5.0.

“I thought my whole trailer was going to tip over, it was shaking it so bad,” said Cushing resident Cindy Roe, 50. “It was loud and all the lights went out, and you could hear things falling on the ground.

“It was awful, and I don’t want to have another one.”

In recent years, Oklahoma regulators have asked oil and gas producers to either close wastewater injection wells or cut back on the volume of fluids injected. The reductions generally have led to a drop-off in quakes and their severity, although not always.

Regulators said Monday they would shut down some disposal wells near Cushing and restrict the volume that can be used in others, but said details would be released Tuesday.

Oklahoma’s strongest quake on record, a magnitude 5.8 temblor Sept. 3, occurred in Pawnee, on the fringe of an area that already had restricted wastewater disposal. Shortly afterward, geologists speculated whether the temblor occurred on a previously unknown fault.

Kurdish peshmerga soldiers fire artillery at Islamic State positions Monday in Bashiqa, Iraq, which is east of Mosul.

By BALINT SZLANKO and QASSIM ABDUL–ZAHRA The Associated Press

NEAR BASHIQA, Iraq – Iraqi Kurdish fighters exchanged heavy fire with militants Monday as they entered a town held by the Islamic State group east of Mosul, while troops advancing south of the city discovered a mass grave containing some 100 decapitated bodies.

The offensive to reclaim the town of Bashiqa is part of the broader push to drive IS out of Mosul, Iraq’s second-largest city, relieving those living under its occupation from the type of brutality, such as mass killings, that the group has committed.

IS militants have carried out a series of massacres since seizing large swaths of southern and central Iraq in the summer of 2014, often documenting them with photos and videos circulated online.

On Monday, Iraqi soldiers advancing into the town of Hamam al-Alil, south of Mosul, discovered a pit containing dozens of decapitated skeletal remains, the military’s Joint Military Command said.

The offensive to retake Bashiqa began at dawn with a Kurdish barrage of heavy artillery, Katyusha rockets and mortar rounds slamming into IS positions, providing cover for the advance of armored columns.

Smoke rose from the town throughout the day, with large explosions sending dark clouds into the sky.

“We have the coordinates of their bases and tunnels, and we are targeting them from here in order to weaken them so that our forces can reach their targets more easily,” said Iraqi Kurd-

ish commander Brig. Gen. Iskander Khalil Gardi.

Bashiqa, which is believed to be largely deserted except for dozens of IS fighters, is located about 8 miles northeast of Mosul’s outskirts and about 13 miles from the city center. Iraqi government and Kurdish forces, backed by a U.S.-led coalition and joined by government-sanctioned militias, are fighting to drive IS out of those surrounding areas and open additional fronts to attack Mosul itself.

Bashiqa has been surrounded by Kurdish forces, known as peshmerga, for weeks, but Monday’s push appeared to be the most serious yet to drive IS from the town.

Kurdish forces launched mortar rounds and fired heavy artillery into the town Sunday in advance of the offensive. More artillery and air strikes hit the town early Monday as the Kurdish forces’ advance got underway.

On Mosul’s southern front, meanwhile, Iraqi soldiers advancing into Hamam al-Alil, some 12 miles from the city center, discovered a mass grave late Monday containing some 100 decapitated bodies near the town’s agricultural college. Most were reduced to skeletons, said Brig. Gen. Yahya Rasool, the spokesman for the Joint Military Command. He said a forensics team from Baghdad would investigate the site Tuesday.

Earlier Monday, army spokesman Brig. Firas Bashar said Iraqi forces had retaken the town, and images broadcast by the Lebanon-based Al-Mayadeen network showed soldiers hoisting the Iraqi flag on a rooftop in the town.

Other reports, however, said fighting still continued and that IS fighters remained in several areas.

How to punish Russia for meddling

Amid this divisive and miserable (and thankfully almost over) U.S. presidential campaign, one menacing subplot hasn’t received the kind of attention it deserves: the Russian government’s effort to disrupt the American political and electoral process.

In July, hackers dumped a trove of stolen emails from the Democratic National Committee, leading its chairwoman to resign. A few weeks later, the personal email addresses and phone numbers of almost 200 lawmakers turned up online. Last month, so did emails from Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman, John Podesta. Across the U.S., hackers have been prying into state electoral machinery, probing for weaknesses.

Added up, it all amounts to unprecedented meddling in an American election. And it all has been attributed – by analysts public and private – to Russia. What kind of response does such audacious interference call for?

Not panic, for starters. Podes-

ta is justifiably upset about his emails, and it’s disturbing to think the leaks may influence voters.

But no one has been killed and democracy hasn’t been derailed.

Election officials are aware of the dangers, and the potential for serious fraud is small. The republic will endure.

Further, there are some indications the U.S. and its allies already are responding. Attributing the attacks to Russia may well be the first step toward imposing sanctions. Last month Vice President Joe Biden suggested more covert efforts may be on the way.

All of which, and more, would be justified. One thing the White House should be wary of, however, is employing its own arsenal of cyberweapons. Such implements are inherently unpredictable.

They risk revealing capabilities that might later come in handy.

And the U.S. has far more to lose from an escalating cyber conflict than does Russia. Better to use the tools – legal, diplomatic and politi-

cal – that have proved effective in the past.

China offers an instructive example. After enduring years of escalating attacks against American corporations, the U.S. indicted five hackers from the Chinese military in 2014. The White House also threatened sanctions, applied diplomatic pressure and generally raised hell. Eventually, the two sides came to a much-touted agreement on the issue last year, and attacks by Chinese-linked hackers since have declined substantially.

The U.S. has no such understanding with Russia. Getting there will require a similar combination of threats and compromises, carrots and sticks. Russia is a much-diminished power, and its intrusions signify only weakness.

But the U.S. still needs its cooperation on many issues, from space to Syria. It should make clear interfering with an American election will have a price. But the price shouldn’t be needlessly steep.

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

Opt for People and Planet First budget for Illinois

To the Editor: Thank you for your article “Voters, you’re our only hope.” I believe every human has the right to quality of life.

People may complain those on food stamps are “freeloaders” but don’t blink an eye about corporate welfare, when corporations are given subsidies such as tax cuts. Big corporations and the 1 percent have run our state into financial ruin. An economy in which the rich get richer and the poor get poorer cannot be sustained. Illinois can be a state that fosters a life of dignity and joy for its residents. The wealthy elite and big corporations need to pay their fair share for the common good.

Illinois’ stopgap budget expires Dec. 31. Illinois legislators are faced with a choice: raising massive amounts of revenue to dig ourselves out of this hole and start investing in a bold, beautiful vision for the state of Illinois or make cuts to critical systems Illinois families rely on,

VIEWS Rich Miller perhaps because of the cost of both the postage and the paper. But its distribution wasn’t confined to Bourne’s downstate district. The first to report receiving it Wednesday was an official at the Sangamon County Farm Bureau, which is north of Bourne’s district. The Farm Bureau quickly notified Bourne, and she went over there to pick it up.

But others saw it in their mailboxes that day, too. Bourne’s Democratic opponent Mike Mathis was called by a high-level House Democratic staff after somebody forwarded it to them.

Mathis called Bourne on Wednesday evening to express his shock and to deny all involvement.

Rep. Bourne told me last week many of her campaign contributors got the piece, suggesting the culprit or culprits used publicly available information. The State Police told her that her endorsement list could’ve been used as well. But the Sangamon County Farm Bureau and some others who received the mailer aren’t involved in her race.

Teens asked to submit PSAs to promote healthy relationships

To the Editor: As a teenager, I began volunteering at Turning Point while on summer break.

It was an eye-opening experience, and the mission grabbed my heart. I knew I wanted to get involved with the cause, and it directed my career path into social work.

I dreamed of starting a program that promoted healthy relationships while providing a safe place to process through the unhealthy ones. While I was in high school, I wish I had known about

the mailer. They were, of course, appalled.

A friend of Bourne’s opponent also received the mailer, even though the guy, I’m told, isn’t at all involved in politics.

The immediate, private reaction from the top on both sides was to blame the other side. Was it a “false flag” operation or an incredibly dirty Democratic trick?

But that speculation was probably ludicrous, and eventually everybody calmed down enough to admit it.

The Republicans wouldn’t ever do something as disgusting as publicly humiliate the youngest woman in the House like that (or any of their female candidates, for that matter). And the Democrats aren’t stupidly insane enough to put their own candidate at risk by doing something that despicable to Bourne.

So, both sides’ initial reactions seemed to be more about self-preservation during the inevitable finger-pointing than sober judgment.

If I had to guess, I’d say the culprit (or culprits) is likely some local weirdo (or weirdos) with an ax to grind who has just enough political knowledge and experience to make him or her dangerous.

Unfortunately, there are more than a few of those types out there in our current age of weaponized misogyny.

You don’t have to spend much time on Twitter or Facebook to see this type of behavior. But posting a photo-shopped picture on Twitter takes very little effort. These envelopes likely were stuffed, labeled and stamped individually by hand. That takes time and, to me, makes this even creepier.

Whether that person simply wanted to hurt Bourne or damage Mathis’ campaign – or possibly do both things at once – is something we might never know. But I gotta figure anyone who is this loathsome to go to all this trouble will want to brag about it and/ or was stupid enough to leave a clue here and there.

The fact the letter apparently was sent to one of Mathis’ nonpolitical friends means whoever did this has some local knowledge.

Mathis, for his part, did all he could to strenuously deny his involvement and denounce the mailer. He even showed up for Bourne’s news conference Thursday to show his solidarity. He did the right thing by a woman who was horribly wronged.

But right or wrong, the opponent usually gets the blame for this stuff in voters’ minds.

What a truly awful way to end one of the foulest campaign seasons ever.

The innocuous-looking mailer began arriving last Wednesday.

Whoever sent it used plain, manila envelopes with first class postage. Usually campaigns use bulk mail, but those have permit numbers, making them traceable. First class mail isn’t so easily traceable.

There was no return address on the envelopes. Whoever sent it used preprinted address labels. The letters were addressed to a generic “Registered Voter” recipient.

Inside was a picture printed on somewhat expensive photo stock paper.

“Got Avery?” was the headline above a poorly photo-shopped picture of state Rep. Avery Bourne’s (R-Raymond) head on someone else’s nude body.

It was probably the vilest thing to happen during a legislative campaign that I’ve seen in all the years I’ve been doing this. And that’s a lot of years writing about a lot of vile muck.

Stamped on the back of the photo was a date of Oct. 7, which likely shows this mailer had been planned for quite some time, and could provide investigators with a clue about where it was produced and maybe even who did it.

As I write this before the election, the mailer hadn’t been widely sent,

Print newspapers are dead? Not after historic elections

By TALI ARBEL

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Print newspapers may be disappearing like the home telephone, but not after Election Day. Remembering the frenzy for old-fashioned papers the morning after Barack Obama’s historic win in 2008, newspapers are printing extra copies and setting up temporary retail stands this year, regardless of whether the nation elects the first woman or reality TV star as president. The Los Angeles Times is also selling a commemorative printing-press plate of the front page.

Many people now rely on Facebook and apps for news, but a screenshot doesn’t have quite the same romance as a newspaper’s front page.

“We like to hold onto things that remind us of the experiences we’ve had,” such as campaign buttons, theater programs or shells from a visit to the beach, said Naomi Baron, an American University professor who studies the interplay of language and technology.

A physical version of a newspaper recounting a life-altering event such as 9/11 or the assassination of President John F. Kennedy is an extension of those keepsakes that a website or app can’t replace, she said. “Paper has a certain kind of look and feel and smell to it that digital equivalents don’t.”

Even so, after a long, sour campaign season, demand for a front page may be more muted than in 2008. Ben Redington, a 34-year-old graphic designer from Wichita, Kansas, likes buying papers after major events, such as the Chicago Cubs’ first World Series win in

108 years. But he doesn’t care for either Clinton or Trump and has no plans to buy a newspaper Wednesday. (He didn’t buy an Obama front page either.)

Newspapers were caught off-guard eight years ago when people wanted keepsake copies of the enormous photos and dramatic headlines declaring Obama the nation’s first black president. Bookstores, convenience stores and newsstands across the country sold out. People descended on newspapers’ headquarters in search of copies.

“They were stealing it off people’s doorsteps,” Washington Post spokes-

woman Kris Coratti said. “It was crazy here.”

Many newspapers restarted printing presses to meet demand. The Post had two extra print runs and issued a thinner commemorative edition in a third.

For this year, Coratti wouldn’t say how many additional copies the Post is planning, but she said it’s similar to what the Post printed for Pope Francis’ visit in 2015. She said the newspaper is prepared for a second printing if needed, leaving plates on the presses. The Post also will sell copies online and at its offices.

The New York Times sold out in many parts of Manhattan before noon and ended up printing 225,000 extra copies, said Mark Weitzel, who manages circulation and retail sales for the Times. That is more than double a typical day’s sales at newsstands, coffee shops, convenience store and other street sales.

This year, he’s ready for a run on a Wednesday paper with a photo of a President Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, both of whom are New Yorkers. The Times plans to print at least 225,000 extra copies and will sell papers outside its headquarters (though because newsstand sales have declined since 2008, the paper is sending out fewer papers overall).

Elsewhere, The Seattle Times is doubling the number of papers available at stores and coin boxes. The Los Angeles Times will send out more than triple the average number of papers and put a kiosk in front of its building. The Plain Dealer of Cleveland is tripling how many newspapers it sends to stores, to about 100,000, and will have an additional 10,000 to 15,000 on standby at the plant if needed.

Still, that’s fewer than the 500,000 copies The Plain Dealer sold in stores when the Cleveland Cavaliers won their NBA title in June. Last week, the Chicago Tribune printed 700,000 extra copies after the Cubs’ triumph and was selling a “World Series” edition of the print paper on its website. For Wednesday, the Tribune plans just 100,000 extra copies and has no plans to hawk papers in the lobby of the Tribune Tower, as it did for the Cubs.

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2016

Jennifer Aniston said she spoke out against tabloid culture because she “has worked too hard in this life and this career to be whittled down to a sad, childless human.”

The 47-year-old actress explained in an interview with Marie Claire her reasons for writing an op-ed in July, saying her marital status, divorce status and lack of a mate have all been “shamed.”

She questioned, “Why are we only looking at women through this particular lens of picking us apart?”

Aniston is now married to actor Justin Theroux.

Awards-season campaigning starts at Hollywood Film Awards BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. – Much like the American presidential race, it’s never too early to start campaigning for Hollywood’s awards season, and stars got an early chance Sunday at the Hollywood Film Awards.

The show has been criticized for its nebulous selection process and odd tradition of recognizing films before they’re released, but the untelevised ceremony at the Beverly Hilton Hotel still drew an A-list crowd of apparent awards-season hopefuls.

“Tonight is actually rigged,” host James Corden told the audience. “Literally, none of this is real.”

That didn’t stop such actors as Tom Hanks, Leonardo DiCaprio, Nicole Kidman, Natalie Portman and Matthew McConaughey from showing up to accept trophies. There were no nominees and winners were announced in advance.

Other stars appearing Sunday included Julianne Moore, Kate Hudson, Justin Timberlake, Jonah Hill, Anna Kendrick, Andrew Garfield, Warren Beatty, Mel Gibson and Lenny Kravitz.

Tuesday’s election was a recurring topic throughout the night. Corden set the tone with several political quips in his opening monologue.

“This year they brought back ‘Star Wars’ with a female lead. They rebooted ‘Ghostbusters’ with a female cast. And I pray to God they reboot the Clinton presidency with a female lead,” the CBS late night host said.

Robert De Niro openly urged support for Hillary Clinton on stage. “We have the opportunity to prevent a comedy from turning into a tragedy,” he said.

TORONTO – Pop star Justin Bieber tickled the ivories in an impromptu free performance at a Toronto bar.

The Canadian-born Bieber visited the Fifth Pubhouse by himself last Friday where he ordered a whiskey and coke at the bar while watching the Toronto Raptors basketball game.

The bar’s spokeswoman Ivy Ho said in an email Monday that Bieber suddenly sat down at the piano and performed several songs, including his hit “Sorry.”

She also emailed photos showing Bieber sitting at the piano and the bar.

Bieber wasn’t paid for his performance, but his bar tab was covered, Ho said.

Stephen King celebrating new book at his alma mater

Wonder Woman Gal Gadot is set to become a mom – again.

The 31-year-old actress announced her pregnancy on Instagram with a selfie of her and husband Yaron Versano making a heart shape with their hands on Gadot’s stomach.

She added in the caption, “So excited to share this wonder with you... #mommyforthesecondtime.”

Gadot and Versano also have a daughter, Alma, born in 2011.

Gadot made her debut as Wonder Woman in “Batman v. Superman” earlier this year and stars in next year’s “Wonder Woman” film.

YOUR GUIDE TO

ELECTION DAY COVERAGE ONLINE

By BARBARA ORTUTAY The Associated Press

T

Vs are so last century. News outlets are using Facebook Live, Snapchat, YouTube and other tools to offer live coverage of Election Day in ways not possible four years ago.

It’s a fitting close to an election season that has played out on Twitter and Facebook as much as it has on the nightly news, with debates live-streamed online and candidates barbing on social media. Here’s your online guide for Tuesday.

Find your polling place and more

Unless you’re one of the millions of Americans who already have voted, it’s a good idea to find out where to cast your ballot, preferably before Tuesday. Googling “how to vote” will take you to localized results that include the times the polls are open and any requirements such as an ID. You also can enter your address to locate your polling place. This information also is available on the McHenry County clerk’s website.

Facebook’s elections tool will show you what’s on your ballot and where various candidates stand on key issues. The information comes from the nonpartisan group Center for Technology and Civic Life, which also generates some of the data for Google searches such as “what’s on my ballot.” To get started, go to www.facebook.com/ elections/yourplan (you’ll need a Facebook account). And to read up on the candidates one more time before you vote, visit Northwest Herald’s Election Central at www.nwherald.com/election-central.

Snap away

Among other things, Snapchat users will be able to see “live stories” on the app – showing people at the polls, election results, acceptance and concession speeches and election night celebrations.

In the U.S., users will see overlays they can add to their snaps.

Face-off on Facebook

NowThis, a news outlet aimed at millennials, will have video coverage on its Facebook page. Comedian Jordan Carlos will host the stream, called “No Sleep til POTUS.” A live blog on NWHerald.com will update about local races throughout the day, and senior reporter Kevin Craver and Executive Editor Dan McCaleb will host a Facebook Live discussion after the polls close.

CNN will have live coverage with reporters in battleground states, as well as drone shots of voting locations and international reaction throughout the day. Each hour from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. will be streamed from a different location. The Washington Post is planning live programming on its Facebook page beginning at 6 p.m. The show will include commentary and updates from Post reporters, including those at campaign headquarters for both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. The New York Times also will stream election coverage on its Facebook page, beginning at 3:30 p.m., from locations such as polling stations, college campuses and election viewing parties.

Other news outlets with live streaming plans include Univision, PBS NewsHour, the Daily Caller, ABC News and Vox.

Twitch along with Twitter

Twitter is partnering with BuzzFeed News for a live stream from BuzzFeed’s New York headquarters. The stream will begin at 5 p.m.

Twitter says segments will include critiques of traditional news outlets and how they are covering the election, as well as live reports from BuzzFeed journalists at various locations throughout the U.S. and elsewhere. Go to http://election.twitter.com. You don’t need an account.

For updates throughout the day on McHenry County races, follow Northwest Herald reporters on Twitter: Kevin Craver, @KevinCraver, Hannah Prokop, @hannah_prokop, Jordan Reiland, @JordynReiland, Nate Linhart, @natelinhart, and Brittany Keeperman, @BKeeperman, as well as @nwherald. Our photo staff also will be posting updates to the Northwest Herald on Instagram.

On Monday, Twitter launched “official” election hashtags, which include an emoji icon of a ballot box, next to the hashtag “ElectionDay” and “Election2016.” With at least one scam trying to tell Clinton supporters to vote by text, Twitter reminded users you cannot vote by text or tweet – but you can send direct messages to the Twitter-owned @gov account to find where your polling place is.

More people are embracing fitness devices and online health apps. But there’s a downside to fitness trackers most consumers don’t realize: the concern about privacy.

Fitness trackers are wearable devices that keep track of your physical activity. They can be an easy, inexpensive way to improve your health.

They’re especially helpful to those who have chronic conditions, who are housebound or who need to monitor ill loved ones. Some companies are even starting to offer additional benefits for employees who use such devices.

But concerns remain about privacy and security, not only with fitness trackers but with any internet-enabled device. You may have heard the phrase “the Internet of Things,” referring to the proliferation of online connectivity in common household appliances. From thermostats to cars to electric kettles, our lives increasingly are connected to the internet.

24 Annual checkup can catch disease early Note to readers: This column originally ran in October 2014.

Dear Dr. K: I’m 73 and in great health. Do I really need to have an annual physical?

Dear Reader: Let’s start by defining “great health.” I would define it as having no known chronic (ongoing) illnesses. However, most people your age have at least one chronic illness, such as high blood pressure. People with chronic illnesses need to be checked out at least once a year, and usually more often.

Even if they don’t have any chronic illnesses, I ask my patients to come in for a checkup every year. That includes asking and answering some questions, a physical examination and some screening tests.

The questions probably are the most important part of an annual checkup. For example, I remember a man in his 50s who had no chronic conditions and exercised every day. He had a healthy diet – he was a vegan. When I asked him whether he had been having any bothersome symptoms, he answered “no,” but hesitated just briefly before saying it. So I pushed him: “Even a mild symptom that’s not very bothersome, but that is something new?”

He replied, “Well, sometimes I get this tingling sensation in my feet. It comes and goes.”

That gave me an idea, and influenced what I did on the physical examination.

There is not a lot of evidence a complete physical examination is valuable. In fact, an analysis of 14 trials that included more than 180,000 patients did not find a yearly general health checkup decreased the risk of death or illness.

I always examine the heart, lungs, abdomen and skin. Even this limited examination is of unproven value. But I’ve discovered irregular heart rhythms, mild asthma and the occasional skin cancer.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff But when a person has a symptom, parts of the physical examination can be extremely valuable. In my patient with the tingling sensations, I took a tuning fork and whacked it to make it vibrate. I asked him to close his eyes and to tell me when he felt the vibrations touch his skin. When I placed the tuning fork on his ankles, he said nothing.

During an annual checkup, it is important for adults to get several types of immunizations every so often and a flu shot every year.

I checked my patient’s immunization record and gave him a flu shot.

Then it was time to order tests. The screening tests I prescribe during an annual checkup didn’t turn up any problems in this person, this year, but they are effective in catching (and sometimes curing) diseases in an early stage, such as various types of cancer and heart disease.

I added a blood test for vitamin B12 to the screening tests in my patient. His symptom of tingling, his inability to feel the vibration of the tuning fork and the fact he was a vegan made me suspect his vitamin B12 levels were low – and they sure were. Fortunately, vitamin B12 pills prevented what could have been permanent damage to his spinal cord.

So, I’d advise you not to skip an annual visit to your doctor. You don’t need to have every nook and cranny of your person probed every year. But you do need certain questions asked, screening tests performed and immunizations given.

Thought for the day: The question now that really vexes Is where we’re gonna place our “X”es.

concerns are, but if you think the assisted-living center could be legally liable, you should address them to the manager.

As to the baby-sitting being too stressful or tiring for your mother, leave it up to her to decide whether it’s too much. Some seniors find feeling needed keeps them young.

The way to gauge any negative impact on your mother’s health would be if it causes a flare-up of her condition – at which point her doctor should be notified so he/she can put a stop to it.

Dear Abby: Are the parents of the bride required to foot the cost of the wedding (averaging more than $25,000 in the U.S. nowadays) anymore? I understand they were years ago, when it was a part of her dowry, but in modern times I have heard of such a thing only in your column – unless the family is rich and Daddy pays for everything.

I can’t imagine asking my parents to pay for my wedding. My fiancé and I are aiming for – dress included – $1,000 or less.

Are parents actually expected to spend thousands on their daughter’s wedding? It’s their daughter and son-in-law who want it. –

• Tuesday, November 8, 2016

Is it wrong to drop off a 1- and a 5-year-old at a senior citizen assisted-living center for their great-grandmother to baby-sit in her room? My niece does this weekly, claiming she’s giving my mother “quality time” with her great-grandchildren.

My mother is in the assisted-living center due to issues my dad is encountering. She’s very independent and, of course, wants to help any of her family whenever she can.

But Mom has an autoimmune disease that flares up with stress or when she gets tired.

I’m concerned about her health and feel my niece is taking advantage of her. Of course, my sister sides with her daughter. They have told me to butt out.

I don’t want to confront the management of the facility because I want Mom to feel as independent as possible there. I don’t want them to not allow her to do something she really wants to do.

I have safety concerns, though, and feel this is not right. What do you think? – Torn

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Consider your choices and make decisions based on your needs, not on what others want or expect of you. Set high standards and make a point to map out what you want to see unfold over the course of the upcoming year. Don’t let personal pressure stand in your way.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Emotional mistakes will be costly. Think outside the box and be sure to keep your expectations in perspective. Get your facts straight before you respond or take action.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Put some heart into whatever you choose to do. Speak

up and make positive changes based on what you want to accomplish. Don’t settle for less.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t worry so much about what others are doing. Focus on honing your skills and making sure you leave no room for error. Be a leader, not a follower.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Look for answers from former colleagues or co-workers with whom you shared a rapport. Sharing the workload will help increase your output.

Romance is encouraged.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Focus on what you have, not on what you want. Money matters can be resolved if you are practical in your spending. Don’t let a romantic desire turn into a costly mistake.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Keep a sharp

watch over money matters and people who may try to take advantage of your good nature. Personal gains will result if you focus on mental and physical improvements.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Emotional deception will be a problem. Having a realistic attitude regarding your plans, relationships or financial situation will be necessary if you want to get ahead.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – A day trip will result in you meeting new people, broadening your perspective and learning new things. The connections you make will help

you discover something that will bring you satisfaction and joy.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Keep your financial affairs a secret. It’s best not to overspend or try to buy love. Stay focused on making personal changes that will gratify you mentally and physically. Romance is featured.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Be diplomatic when dealing with personal, domestic or health matters. Not everyone will see things your way. Tread carefully when dealing with relationships.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Your involvement in networking functions or activities that involve children will help you look at your future in a new light. Don’t procrastinate. You should be moving forward.

READER NOTICE:

A.N. Onymous said, “The best defense against the atom bomb is not to be there when it goes off.”

Finding the best defense against any contract is always satisfying. EastWest were happy at the end of this deal.

First, though, let’s look at the auction. North was a tad weak for the two-heart reverse, which promised a very good 16-20 points. In the tournament world, after this type of reverse, responder’s rebid of fourth suit or two no-trump, whichever is the cheaper, artificially warns of a very weak hand. This North-South pair did not have that agreement, so South rebid two no-trump to show his club stoppers, wondering if they belonged in no-trump or diamonds.

North, aware of the previous overbid, suddenly passed.

West led his fourth-highest club.

South might have won dummy’s king with his ace to take a diamond finesse, but that would not have worked well here. Instead, declarer won on the board and played a spade to his jack. West made a commendable smooth duck. Now South cashed his top clubs (East throwing a spade) and took the heart finesse (an error here -- a club would have been more successful). East won and worked to strand declarer in the dummy. East cashed the spade ace, then led the heart 10 (in case South had started with nine-doubleton).

South won on the board and cashed the heart ace, under which West carefully played the nine.

East won the next heart and led a spade to partner’s king. West cashed the club jack, then pushed a diamond through the dummy to defeat the contract.

QB’s confidence soaring

Late-season surge moves Collins into team rushing lead

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com CARY – Bob and Julie Collins’ food bill grew substantially through October, not that anyone was complaining about it.

Their son, Bobby Collins, had developed into more of a big-play threat as Cary-Grove’s quarterback, reeling off 100-yard rushing performances in four of five games. With that success came upholding a Trojans’ tradition of the leading rusher feeding his offensive linemen on Mondays after games.

“My parents might mind, but I don’t,” Collins said, smiling.

Actually, running back Kyle Pressley, who also passed 100 yards in two of those games, was a gracious teammate and invited the line over twice to his house.

Collins’ late-season surge gave him the team rushing lead at 844 yards and

Quarterfinal pairings

Times and days this week for quarterfinal football playoff games involving local teams: Class 8A No. 1 Loyola (11-0) at No. 24 Huntley (8-3), 1 p.m. Saturday Class 7A No. 4 Fenwick (10-1) at No. 28 Jacobs (7-4), 3 p.m. Saturday Class 6A No. 12 Lake Forest (8-3) at No. 1 Prairie Ridge (11-0), 1 p.m. Saturday No. 3 Cary-Grove (10-1) at No. 7 DeKalb (9-2), 1 p.m. Saturday Class 5A No. 14 Marian Central (7-4) at No. 7 Vernon Hills (8-3), 1 p.m. Saturday Class 4A No. 2 Johnsburg (11-0) at No. 3 GenoaKingston (11-0), 7 p.m. Friday second-most touchdowns (12) for the Trojans. When No. 3-seeded C-G (10-1) faces No. 7 DeKalb (9-2) at 1 p.m. Saturday, the Barbs will have to be concerned with slowing down Collins as much as fullback Tyler Pennington and running backs Ryan Magel and Pressley in the Trojans’ option attack.

“I got better at learning where to run,” said Collins, a senior who started two playoff games last season. “At the beginning of the season, I didn’t know where everybody’s blocks were going to be. After I learned that, I realized I have some sort of speed, I could get outside and follow my blocks.”

Collins started the first two playoff games a year ago, both C-G wins, when senior J.P. Sullivan was recovering from mononucleosis. Collins battled with sophomore Quinn Priester for the starting job in summer camp; Trojans coach Brad Seaburg knew one would be quarterback and the other would play safety.

“It was tough. They are both good quarterbacks,” Seaburg said. “Bobby, being a senior, had some experience.

Bobby started to get a lot more comfortable with what we were doing and gained a ton of confidence. It was probably after the Huntley game (Week 5) when his confidence really got going.”

Collins ran 10 times for 120 yards in a 50-13 win over Dundee-Crown. From that point, 100-yard games and long runs have been common for Collins.

Marian Central’s Sydney Nemtuda (facing) hugs McKayla Wuensch after the Hurricanes defeated Joliet Catholic in the Class 3A state championship match Nov. 14, 2015, at Illinois State University’s Redbird Arena in Normal.

All-time best Hurricanes Marian Central seniors McKayla Wuensch and Sydney Nemtuda set school records earlier this postseason. Wuensch is Marian’s career assists leader with 2,301, and Nemtuda is the career kills leader with 995.

Assists 1. McKayla Wuensch (2013-16), 2,301 2. Abby Gilleland (2008-11), 2,292 Kills 1. Sydney Nemtuda (2013-16), 995 2. Rachel Giustino (2012-15), 856

Final four Friday’s Class 3A state semifinals Mascoutah vs. Marian Central, 4 p.m.

Marian Catholic vs. Bloomington Central Catholic, about 5:30 p.m.

Saturday’s matches Third-place match: Semifinal losers, 4 p.m.

Championship match: Semifinal winers, about 5:30 p.m.

Last season, the Hurricanes set a school record with 39 wins and a state title. This year’s team has lost only once in 40 matches and has dropped only 10 sets.

Wuensch leads Marian with 832 assists and 107 kills, and Nemtuda has 321 kills on the attack.

“We were actually talking [Sunday night], saying how sad we are that this could be

our last (matches) if we’re not on the same club team this year,” Nemtuda said. “She’s been my setter for basically my whole life, and I couldn’t be happier. I’m going to miss her so much.”

Wuensch and Nemtuda recently became the school’s all-time leaders in assists and kills, respectively.

Wuensch set the school record in Marian’s 25-16, 25-20

Class 3A Marian Central Supersectional win against Rosary and has 2,301 career assists, passing former Mid-American Conference Player of the Year Abby Gilleland.

Last year, Wuensch finished with the ninth-most assists in IHSA history (1,053).

She can crack the state’s top 20 this weekend for all-time assists.

“McKayla is one of the best leaders I know,” Nemtuda said. “She’s so smart when it comes to running the offense, and she knows when and where to set or dump. She always gets kills. She has over 100 kills this season, and as a setter, that’s incredible. Not a lot of people can say that.”

Nemtuda, meanwhile, owns the school record with 995 kills, passing 2016 grad Rachel Giustino earlier this postseason – 692 of those kills have come in the last two seasons, including a school-record 371 as a junior.

“I knew that Sydney was going to become something amazing,” Wuensch said. “For both of us to progress together, and now hold records together, I think it just shows how well

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK LAUREN HANLON Marian Central, sr., RS Hanlon smashed a team-high eight kills and added three blocks to lead the Hurricanes to a 25-16, 25-20 sweep over Rosary in the Class 3A Marian Central Supersectional, sending Marian back to the Class 3A state semifinals for the second straight season.

Hanlon is second on the team with 264 kills.

“Her jump and her ability to hit it over and around the block is so immensely huge on that side,” Hurricanes coach Laura Watling said.

“When she can get full extension on her swing, it makes her very difficult to block.

“The numbers she’s put up over the last three years as a right side ... there’s no one else I’ve coached that’s come even close.”

– Alex Kantecki, akantecki@shawmedia.com we work together and how far we have come, the two of us.”

Marian Central coach Laura Watling is aware of the unique friendship and bond between Wuensch and Nemtuda, both on and off the court. She’s seen it blossom for the past four seasons into something special for the Hurricanes.

“This is like their last hurrah,” Watling said. “They know each other so well and they feed off each other so well.

To have two girls like that on the court, both from the point of leadership, but also chemistry, I think that’s huge.

“You can’t really even coach that. It’s just one of those things you get blessed with.”

• Tuesday, November 8, 2016

t’s hard not to notice the natural connection between Marian Central’s McKayla Wuensch and Sydney Nemtuda whenever the two Hurricanes seniors get together on a volleyball court.

And for good reason.

Wuensch has been Nemtuda’s setter for the better part of 12 seasons. They started playing together in the fifth grade and have been on the same school team ever since, in addition to playing on the same club volleyball team at Sky High in Crystal Lake except for one season.

About the only thing they haven’t perfected is a prematch handshake, but the best friends for life since kindergarten are working on it.

“We have special plays that we run and people ask how it works, and I can’t even explain it,” Wuensch said. “We have this connection. Sometimes if it’s an off set, or one of us makes a mistake, we don’t even have to say anything.

“Usually, we will turn to each other and say the same exact thing, because we know what’s wrong in a split second and we can just change it.

That connection has been insane, and I don’t know what I’m going to do without her next year.”

Wuensch, a Nevada commit, and Nemtuda, a Florida Atlantic commit, have at least two more matches together when the Hurricanes (39-1) this weekend invade Redbird Arena in Normal.

Marian plays Mascoutah in a Class 3A state semifinal at 4 p.m. Friday. If the Hurricanes win, they will defend their Class 3A state championship Saturday against the winner of Marian Catholic and Bloomington Central Catholic.

With the Hurricanes, Wuensch and Nemtuda have been up on varsity since their freshman year. They have been part of four regional and four sectional titles, leading Marian to an astonishing 78-4 record since the start of 2015.

Players mostly steer clear of politics

Bears wary of locker-room debate amid ‘crazy’ presidential election

By PATRICK FINLEY

pfinley@suntimes.com Bears players can agree on one aspect of the most divisive presidential race of their – or any – lifetime.

“This expletive is crazy,” linebacker Jerrell Freeman said, censoring himself.

“This [expletive] is crazy,” guard Eric Kush said, not showing the same restraint. “We all agree on that. And that’s it.”

On the eve of the presidential election, however, the Bears locker room hasn’t exactly split into Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump factions. In a locker room where nothing is off limits, most Bears players have opted for caution.

“You’re teammates,” Kush said.

“Especially with an election like this, you don’t want to get into that.”

Tight end Ben Braunecker, a rookie from Harvard who voted absentee, knows what he believes.

“Of course I do,” he said. “But this is one of those elections, where, if you voice those opinions, you’re going to upset somebody.”

Among team sports, only baseball boasts broader socioeconomic diversity; in the NFL, however, most players are American citizens, and can vote.

“I think our consensus, like most of the public, is people saying, ‘This is nuts,’ ” outside linebacker Sam Acho

said. “You’ve got two candidates with both of their own issues. …

“There’s definitely some political conversations, but funny enough, it hasn’t gotten too political over the last couple months.”

Acho, who spent time in Washington, D.C., this offseason lobbying Congress on behalf of the American Diabetes Association, said the Bears talked politics more during training camp. That was a product of a larger roster – 90 players compared with 53 – and more free time.

“They joke about the politics every now and then, but no one’s sitting here saying who they’re going to vote for,” cornerback Tracy Porter said. “They may say it jokingly, but you don’t have the defense lobbying the offense to vote for this person, and vice versa.”

Outside the locker room, “there’s political polarization that I don’t see any way of improving,” Braunecker said.

He blames blind allegiance of voters – “Anybody’s going to stick behind any candidate, so long as they represent their party,” he said – on cable news stations that spin news items to fit their agenda.

“The people that only watch those news stations get basically two different realities,” he said.

Maybe, he was asked, blind allegiance to a party is similar to the way fans view teams?

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

Bears center Eric Kush checks the call as Jay Cutler changes the play against the Vikings on Oct. 31 at Soldier Field.

He said he could equate a quarterback with a presidential candidate – particularly how their behavior is held to a different standard.

“Perhaps people can be that loyal behind somebody that wears their jersey, represents them, their point of view, their way of life,” he said. “Yeah, I can see that.”

The locker room is a “beautiful place,” defensive end Akiem Hicks

said, because players of different backgrounds learn about each other through daily interaction.

“I’m talking about everything, the full gambit,” he said.

The election, however, seems to be the third rail – and a dirty word.

“If you guys were in here for 24 hours, you’d hear a lot worse things than politics,” Porter said. “Politics is the least of our worries right now.”

Long, Wilson, Goldman among key Bears back at practice

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com LAKE FOREST – The Bears were as healthy as they have been all season coming out of their Week 9 bye when they returned to Halas Hall for practice Monday.

Right guard Kyle Long, left guard Josh Sitton, nose tackle Eddie Goldman, receivers Eddie Royal and Marquess Wilson and cornerback Bryce Callahan all participated in the portion of practice open to the media – the team doesn’t have to issue an injury report until Wednesday. The only injured Bears player on the roster who remains out is CB Deiondre’ Hall. WR Kevin White and CB Kyle Fuller are on injured reserve.

“I thought with our numbers, we were like a nine-man football team

there for a while. There weren’t many people out there. And it was clear that we’re an 11-man team today,” said Long, who missed the second half of the Packers game and the entire Vikings game with a triceps injury. “There were a lot of people out there. A lot of people who clearly took advantage of the break from a proKyle Long ductive standpoint and did the things they needed to do to get their body right. Because the list was long in the training room prior to that break. Seems as if a lot of guys were out there.”

For a defense that is playing better, getting Goldman back will be key. The 2015 second-round pick has been out since Week 2 with an ankle injury.

“I just want to add on. I just want to add onto that defensive mentality,” said Goldman, who never had missed consecutive games in his football career. “I just want to get out there, make a couple of plays and celebrate with the team.”

Goldman said he ate a lot of vegetables to keep his weight in check as he rehabbed the injury.

“Eddie’s done a good job being a pro,” Bears coach John Fox said. “He’s developed that mindset, he’s in good shape that way. Now it’s just getting in football shape.”

Wilson practiced for the first time since undergoing foot surgery in the spring. The Bears now have 21 days to activate him from the physically-unable-to-perform list.

“Excited to be back with the team,” he said. “It’s just been a work in prog-

ress and getting back out there, just having fun. I’m happy to be back out there.”

Wilson began the 2014 season on the PUP list with a collarbone injury and missed time last year with a foot injury.

“It’s never easy. It’s disappointing to be hurt and let your teammates down,” Wilson said of another injury to recover from. “It’s just a blessing to be back on the field.”

Royal, who missed the past two games with a toe injury, said he sees a team that can make a run in the second half.

“You look around and you see so many good players, it’s like, why not win out?” he said. “You’ve got to win the first one, but we believe in each other so much that we know that we can turn this thing around.”

called timeout midway through the first quarter with the Magic leading 20-16 to deliver a message.

“The message was to pick it up. Start guarding. Make it uncomfortable,” Hoiberg said. “They were just zipping that thing wherever they wanted to.

And then we got some of the subs in, we picked up, got into them, underneath them, we denied some passes that threw off the timing. That’s what it was about.”

The energy shifted immediately, as reserve guard Isaiah Canaan entered the game and, moments later, drained a corner 3 and finished at the rim on back-to-back possessions to give the Bulls a 27-24 lead with 3:21 left in the

quarter. The Bulls never looked back.

That sparked a 15-2 run to close out the first, the ball whipping, bodies slicing and outlet passes flying like something out of a Hoiberg fever dream.

Wade flushed home a transition dunk and canned a long two, Nikola Mirotic sidestepped a closing defender to feather in a 3 at the buzzer, and the Bulls led 37-24.

That, as it turned out, was all she wrote.

With the Bulls rolling in the third quarter, back-to-back and-ones from Doug McDermott and Jimmy Butler lit the crowd and drove the lead to 8661. Butler was electric throughout the quarter, launching after loose balls, pogo-ing around the rim and scoring nine of his game-high total.

The Magic did little to help their own cause, mostly firing settled-on jumpers and handling the ball carelessly after their initial first-quarter burst.

But the performance might well be a template for how the Bulls will need to win on most nights this season. Despite a poor showing from the arc (3 of 19), the Bulls hammered the Magic on the boards (56-39), outran them (23-11 in fastbreak points) and forced them into nearly twice as many turnovers (14-8).

“Tonight we got back to the things that we’re successful (at),” Wade said.

“It didn’t look good at the beginning of the game, but we turned it around.”

BULLS NOTES

Don’t pass judgment on new-look Bulls just yet

By JASON LANGENDORF For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – Is six games too soon to judge this season’s Bulls squad? Not if fools errands are your thing.

If we’ve learned anything about these Bulls from their three-game skid on the heels of their three consecutive wins to open the season, it’s that we’ve learned nothing about them. Yes, franchise battle ax Taj Gibson remains present and accounted for. Jimmy Butler, the club’s most indispensable player, still calls the United Center home.

We are, of course, familiar with their work. But they are the last remnants of yesterday’s playoff contender.

The old guard? Ancient history.

That’s not to say that these new Bulls won’t be today’s playoff contender. But with so many new characters added to the cast – even if one of them happens to be three-time NBA champ and prodigal

son Dwyane Wade – it’s premature to gaze too deeply into the tea leaves. Only six of the 15 players on the Bulls’ roster were part of the club as recently as five months ago, and among them only Gibson and Butler were even of car-rental age when last season began.

Judge ’em? We hardly know ’em.

But as the Bulls regrouped from their first back-to-back of the season, taking stock after a stinging home loss to the Knicks and fallDwyane Wade ing flat at Indiana, the question was fair to ask: When will we know how good these guys can be?

“You get to see around December, January what kind of team you’re going to have,” Wade said after Monday morning’s shootaround at the Advocate Center. “And it’s moments like this where you [start] to see. You don’t

really get to see when you’re winning always, you get to see when you’re losing what kind of team you have, how you respond to things. We’re six games into the season. Golden State’s not even in first place in the Western Conference. So that shows you where the season’s at right now.”

Bottom line: Nothing to see here.

Not yet.

“When you’ve got as many new faces as we have – and I think you look across the league, a lot of the teams that have had turnover are facing some of the similar issues,” coach Fred Hoiberg said. “There is some of that. But you can’t use it as an ongoing excuse.”

No excuses. Just a combination of old legs and young psyches, both of which tend to bounce back slowly. So brace yourself for the occasional lull throughout this season.

“Right now, there’s going to be a learning curve,” Wade said. “There’s

going to be moments where it’s great.

There’s going to be moments when it’s not so great. We’ve got to keep looking each other in the eye, stay communicating and stay being honest each other, and we’ll be fine.”

Jimmy Football: In an effort to relieve some of that tension – and perhaps to relive some of the old gridiron glory days – the Bulls, led by Butler (and even including Hoiberg), continue to toss a football around practices and shootarounds. It’s a small thing, Wade said, but it “helps kind of relax the situation.”

Wade further lightened the mood when he was asked if Butler’s claim to be the best wide receiver not playing in the NFL holds water.

“You let Jimmy tell it, he’s nice,” Wade said. “But you let most people tell you something about themselves ... like I told you, (Bulls assistant) Pete Myers is a Hall of Famer – if you let him tell it.”

CHICAGO – When basketball is played with pace and flow, it’s a gorgeous thing to behold. But Fred Hoiberg isn’t so much concerned with the aesthetics.

The Bulls coach just knows it’s the sort of stuff that wins ballgames.

Hoiberg, who had been prodding his club to rediscover the ball movement and scorched-earth hustle that had marked its unexpected 3-0 start to the season, received it in spades Monday at the United Center as the Bulls ran, cut, swung and stroked their way to a 112-80 win over the Orlando Magic.

The Bulls (4-3) ended their threegame slide, with Jimmy Butler leading five Bulls in double figures, scoring with 20 points. Dwyane Wade and Taj Gibson finished with 16 apiece. Aaron Gordon’s 15 points paced the Magic, whose winning streak was halted at three games.

Hoiberg had been vexed by his club’s recent trend of creaking out of the gate in games, and the Bulls weren’t exactly spry to start against the Magic (3-4).

They got shots up early in possessions, but it seemed almost out of rote obligation. The ball was slow to move, as AP photo were the players themselves. Worse, Magic center Nikola Vucevic (right) fouls Orlando easily was parting the paint Bulls guard Jimmy Butler during the first and victimizing the Bulls with the sort half of Monday night’s game at the United of transition hustle Hoiberg had been demanding of his own guys. Hoiberg Center. The Bulls won, 112-80.

MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL: GM MEETINGS

Cubs tossing out old sales pitch

By GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Brian Cashman, the general manager of the 27time world champion Yankees, was stopped in the middle of the stonepaved walkway near the lobby of the Omni Scottsdale Resort to answer questions Monday from two dozen reporters about his plans for fixing his 84-win team.

About 20 feet away from the button-down, sober-toned Cashman, some guy in flip flops, shorts, T-shirt and ball cap, holding a cold drink, could be heard laughing with a few colleagues and friends.

Theo Epstein, the president of the 107-time consecutive-loser Cubs, insisted he’s at “halftime” of his self-proclaimed bender, no matter what the unshaven look, easy laugh and icy brown drink might have suggested.

“No, this is pure hydration,” he said, smiling.

Not that it matters. Fresh off the Cubs’ historic championship, a glance at the Epstein-Cashman scene told anyone watching all they needed to know about the new world order of baseball as the annual general managers meet-

ings opened – with the Cubs at the top, its roster returning nearly intact, and other heavy-hitting franchises trying to play catch-up.

In fact, the Cubs’ biggest challenge this winter probably has less to do with zeroing in on the perfect pitching upgrade or outfield fit than what their next sales pitch might be to the next big free agent they want.

“I’ve always said we have the most ironic sales pitch of all time,” general manager Jed Hoyer said. “That we’ve been really bad for a long time, we’ve been unable to win for a long time, and as a result, you can do something that’s incredibly special. It’s an amazing sales pitch.”

It sold itself: the drought, the socalled curse, the fervid, intensely loyal fan base, the dream sequence of the parade Chicago would throw.

Generations of Cubs free agents talked often about being on the team that finally did what this one did last week.

“A lot of people took less money or went out of their way to try to be a part of the group that could finally have that parade in Chicago,” Hoyer said. “And

Continued from page 6 now we’ve had that parade. I think now that sales pitch is gone. You can never break a 108-year curse again.”

At least you would hope not.

“You always had that trump card,” said Hoyer, whose front office made a computer-generated, multi-media science out of that sales pitch. “We don’t have it anymore, and I’m glad we don’t have it anymore. But I think it’ll definitely change how we go about things a little bit.”

For big free-agent targets such as Jon Lester and Jason Heyward – even ones who got away, such as catcher Russell Martin two years ago – the Cubs broke out the fictionalized video of what a Game 7 victory would look like, how crazy the fans packing Clark and Addison outside the ballpark would be, what a parade down Michigan Avenue to Grant Park would look like.

They showed Lester a scale model of the ballpark with yet-to-be-installed

video boards, down to the detail of showing his .000 batting average on the board display.

He bought into the vision, in part because he trusted the relationships with Epstein and Hoyer he had built with them in Boston – where they busted that team’s 86-year curse.

“I believed in that belief,” Lester said. “And the talent here speaks for itself.”

Consider that the next sales pitch.

“You want to get to the point where it sells itself,” Epstein said. “Players talk. There are very few secrets in the game. We made the video because we felt like maybe we had a better story than we were being given credit for.

No one knew about the new clubhouse; we had to show them the mockups.

No one necessarily knew how well we were prepared with key players [in the system].

“But now maybe our players who have been Cubs the last couple years are our best advocates for how special it is to play for Cubs fans, and especially the Ricketts family.”

The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum on Monday announced that White Sox TV play-by-play announcer Ken “Hawk” Harrelson and Cubs radio announcer Pat Hughes are among eight finalists for the 2017 Ford C. Frick Award, which is presented for excellence in baseball broadcasting.

Harrelson, 75, and Hughes, 61, are joined by Mets broadcaster Gary Cohen, former Expos broadcaster Jacques Doucet, A’s broadcaster Bill King, Giants broadcaster Mike Krukow, former Red Sox broadcaster Ned Martin and Rays broadcaster Dewayne Staats as the eight finalists.

“It is extremely humbling to even be considered within the company of the top broadcasters in our game, let alone a finalist for the prestigious Ford C. Frick Award,” Harrelson said in a statement released by the Sox. “Nothing gives me more enjoyment than sharing the game of baseball with White Sox fans each season. Baseball is the greatest game there is, and it would certainly be the ultimate honor to be recognized among some of the great voices of the game in Cooperstown.”

Harrelson was a finalist in 2007 and 2014. He completed his 31st season in the Sox booth, taking on a light-

er schedule by primarily doing road games only. Hughes completed his 21st season with the Cubs after calling games for the Brewers for 12 seasons.

The Hall of Fame selected only major league, team-specific broadcasters based on commitment to excellence, quality of broadcasting abilities, reverence within the game, popularity with fans and recognition by peers. Candidates, active or retired, must have a minimum of 10 years of continuous major league broadcast service with a ball club, network or a combination of the two.

Final voting for the 2017 Frick Award will be conducted by a 17-member committee, composed of the 13 living Frick Award recipients and four broadcast historians/columnists, including David J. Halberstam (historian), Barry Horn (Dallas Morning News), Ted Patterson (historian) and Curt Smith (historian). Past living Frick honorees include Marty Brennaman, Dick Enberg, Jaime Jarrin, Tony Kubek, Denny Matthews, Tim McCarver, Jon Miller, Eric Nadel, Felo Ramirez, Vin Scully, Bob Uecker, Dave Van Horne and Bob Wolff.

The winner will be announced Dec. 5 at the 2016 Winter Meetings in National Harbor, Maryland. Induction ceremonies are July 30 in Cooperstown, New York.

8 MLB: GM MEETINGS

GMs gather under uncertainty

Trades, signings could be slowed by lack of labor contract

Bryant, Lester, Hendricks and Maddon up for major awards The ASSOCIATED PRESS

By RONALD BLUM

The Associated Press SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – With baseball’s collective bargaining agreement set to expire Dec. 1, trade talk and freeagent signings could go slowly this offseason.

Major league general managers gathered Monday for the start of their annual meeting, in the shadow of Camelback Mountain, with guitar music playing over speakers and the smell of mesquite in the hotel courtyard.

There is an extra level of uncertainty.

“We don’t know what rules we’re playing yet under,” Boston Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said Monday. “Knowing some of that’s important, because I don’t really know what we’re dealing with, and you wouldn’t want something thrust upon you that surprised you – that there were penalties attached that you may not like or you may like.”

Negotiators for owners and players have been meeting since spring training, and talks were set to continue this week in Arizona, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because no public statements were authorized.

The sides have not reached agreement on many of the contentious issues, including management’s desire for a draft of international amateur players, the threshold where the luxury tax will start next year or whether there will be changes to the draft-pick compensation system for premier free agents. Baseball has not had a work stoppage since 1994-95, and commissioner Rob Manfred expressed confidence there will be an agreement by December.

“There’s certainly uncertainty until they do,” agent Scott Boras said. “I’m sure they’re going to want to know the impact of it. Why wouldn’t you?”

With teams operating under the rules of the old agreement, Toronto sluggers Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion and New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes and second baseman Neil Walker were among 10 free agents to receive $17.2 million qualifying offers Monday.

Cubs outfielder Dexter Fowler, Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen and third baseman Justin Turner also received the offers, as did major

Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said he already reached out to the agent for Chapman, the hard-throwing closer who helped the Cubs win the World Series after a July trade from New York. league home run leader Mark Trumbo of Baltimore. Texas outfielder Ian Desmond and Philadelphia pitcher Jeremy Hellickson got qualifying offers, too.

Players have until Monday to accept. For free agents who decline and sign elsewhere, their new team loses a high selection in June’s amateur draft and their old club gets an extra pick after the first round. Only players who spent the entire season with one team James Shields are eligible for qualifying offers.

“The one aspect of the collective bargaining agreement that may not be resolved any time soon is this question of draft-choice compensation, which is probably what could change the market one way or the other,” Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said. “I don’t think the new rules are going to get more onerous to the players, and it’s not clear whether they’ll be less onerous for clubs.”

None of the 34 qualifying offers was accepted in the first three years of the current labor deal, but among the 20 free agents given offers last year when the price was $15.8 million, Baltimore catcher Matt Wieters, Houston outfielder Colby Rasmus and Dodgers lefthander Brett Anderson accepted.

About 160 major league free agents can start discussing money terms with all teams Tuesday. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said he already reached out to the agent for Aroldis Chapman, the hard-throwing closer who helped the Cubs win the

World Series after a July trade from New York.

Cashman met Friday with Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner to discuss payroll budget.

“I’m not going to tell what the number is, but he gave me a number,” Cashman said.

The luxury tax threshold was $189 million for each of the past three seasons, and a record six teams are projected to pay this year: the Yankees ($27 million), the Los Angeles Dodgers ($25 million), Boston ($6 million), Detroit ($3.9 million), the Cubs ($3.7 million) and San Francisco ($3 million each).

On the last day of the so-called “quiet period” before free-agent negotiations start, the Los Angeles Angels exercised a $7 million option on third baseman Yunel Escobar, Texas opted to pay a $1.5 million buyout to left-hander Derek Holland rather than exercise an $11 million option, and the Seattle Mariners acquired Carlos Ruiz from the Dodgers for left-hander Vidal Nuno and exercised the catcher’s $4.5 million option.

Left-hander Scott Kazmir decided not to opt out of the final two seasons of his contract with the Dodgers, choosing to keep $32 million in pay rather than become a free agent after going 10-6 with a 4.56 ERA in 26 starts.

Right-hander James Shields kept his contract with the White Sox rather than become a free agent after tying for the big league lead with 19 losses. The 32-year-old gets $21 million in each of the next two seasons, with San Diego reimbursing the Sox for $11 million annually.

NEW YORK – Fresh off leading the Cubs to their first World Series title in more than a century, slugger Kris Bryant and several teammates soon could be hoisting more hardware.

Bryant is among the top three vote-getters for the NL MVP award, with manager Joe Maddon and pitchers Jon Lester and Kyle Hendricks in contention for other honors.

The Baseball Writers’ Association of America announced the finalists Monday. Voting was completed before the postseason, and the awards will be presented next week on MLB Network.

A season after he was the NL Rookie of the Year, Bryant hit 39 home runs with 102 RBIs while batting .292. The third baseman also scored a league-high 121 runs.

Washington second baseman Daniel Murphy, who batted .347 for the NL East champions, and Dodgers rookie shortstop Corey Seager also are up for NL MVP. AL batting champion Jose Altuve of Houston, 2014 winner Mike Trout of the Angels and Boston outfielder Mookie Betts are the AL finalists.

The MVPs will be announced Nov. 17.

The AL Cy Young Award is between Cleveland ace Corey Kluber, Boston’s Rick Porcello and Detroit’s Justin Verlander. In the NL, it’s Lester, Hendricks or Washington’s Max Scherzer on Nov. 16.

Detroit’s Michael Fulmer, the Yankees’ Gary Sanchez and Cleveland’s Tyler Naquin are finalists for AL Rookie of the Year. Seager, Dodgers teammate Kenta Maeda and Washington’s Trea Turner are the NL contenders, with the top rookies announced Monday.

Maddon, Washington’s Dusty Baker and Dave Roberts of the Dodgers are up for NL Manager of the Year. Cleveland’s Terry Francona, who guided his team into the World Series, Texas’ Jeff Banister and Baltimore’s Buck Showalter are the AL candidates.

Those honors will be awarded Nov. 15.

The Cubs led the majors with 103 wins in the regular season.

Last year, the Cubs won three major awards after reaching the NL Championship Series. In addition to Bryant earning rookie honors, Maddon was the NL Manager of the Year and pitcher Jake Arrieta took home the NL Cy Young Award.

BLACKHAWKS

By MARK LAZERUS

Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane came into the NHL together. They helped transform the Blackhawks’ organization together. They won Stanley Cups together. They basically grew up together.

But this idea that they have some telekinetic link that creates instant offense every time they’re put on a line together? It just doesn’t work that way. Even superstar running buddies need time to figure things out.

“It’s kind of like a work in progress,” Kane said. “It’s been a while since we’ve really played together.

Sometimes you have to almost think about how we played with each other five or six years ago – or however long ago it was.”

With Toews stymied and the Hawks sputtering two weeks ago, coach Joel Quenneville went against one of his most sacred coaching tenets and put his two biggest stars together on the Hawks’ top line.

It’s the first time the two have been on the same line – aside from the occasional post-penalty-kill shift – for any extended time in the regular season since the Hawks’ first championship run in 2009-10. Since then, Quenneville has been adamant about keeping them apart, forcing opponents to pick their poison rather than load up to shut down one super line.

It figured to be a short-term move at first, a way to jump-start Toews.

But Quenneville is loath to change the lineup when things are working, and, boy, are things working. The Hawks have won all six games since the move was made. Toews, who had

seasons. Collins’ threat has taken some of the load off of Pennington, as well.

“Bobby’s done an outstanding job,” Pennington said. “He’s done a great job proving himself and proving he belongs in that position. It’s great for the team. We always knew Bobby was a great player, it was just really what side was he going to be on, and luckily it’s the offense.”

Collins, who had a 99-yard touchdown run against Crystal Lake Central, averages 9.5 yards a carry.

“Last year, J.P. did a great job running our offense. He was a great

distributor,” Seaburg said. “J.P. had one rushing touchdown. For a CaryGrove quarterback, that doesn’t happen a whole lot. J.P. read well and got the ball to other guys who scored the touchdowns. Bobby has a lot of touchdowns and has a lot of long runs, too.”

Collins gives credit, along with plenty of food, to the line of Colton Ruhland, Nate Hartke, Mike Eleftheriou, Cadin Koeppel and Addison West.

“It’s my line that gives me that confidence,” Collins said. “Seeing what they do for me, to open up the game, has really helped my confidence.”

Continued from page 2 “I’ve been seeing it since we were kids,” Magel said. “I always knew Bobby could run fast and score points like that. It’s not a big surprise to me.

Kyle and I got the ball on the outside more, and I feel like they’re keying on us a little bit, and it gives Bobby the big runs, and he’s been doing great.”

Pennington, slowed by an ankle injury that kept him out two games, is C-G’s career rushing leader and led the Trojans in rushing the three previous

no goals and two assists in the first seven games, has four goals and four assists since. Kane has three goals and five assists in that span.

And, perhaps most important, Marian Hossa has been rejuvenated in Kane’s usual spot alongside Artemi Panarin and Artem Anisimov, with five goals and two assists in the six games.

Despite all the victories and points, Toews and Kane just now are starting to get that familiar feel for each other.

They’re different players than they were six years ago, and although the chemistry has been instant, it hasn’t been consistent.

“It seems like every other game there’s a lot of flow,” Toews said. “We get the puck a lot; we’re keeping the puck a lot. And then some games it’s like you’re chasing it all night.”

For Kane, playing with Toews is a lot different than playing with Panarin. Toews forechecks with abandon and likes to set up behind the net.

Panarin, meanwhile, thinks and plays the way Kane does, looking for sneaky backdoor setups and one-timers. So when Kane is carrying the puck, his safety valve is in a different spot than he became used to last season.

Meanwhile, the more creative Kane doesn’t crash the net with the power and tenacity of Hossa, Toews’ longtime right wing. So it has been an adjustment for both.

A little selfishness wouldn’t hurt, either.

“When we’re playing with each other, sometimes you kind of defer to the other guy a little bit instead of taking control yourself,” Kane said. “If we get back to that a little bit, things will open up, and we’ll start to create a little more, too.”

Quenneville has remained noncommittal about the new lines, joking that “long term” for Hawks lines is a relative term. His ideal lineup still has Toews on the top line and Kane on the second, and he likely will jump at the chance to split them up again when the Hawks hit an inevitable rut.

So far, though, even the quibbling Quenneville can’t argue with the results.

“I don’t have a problem with [being separated from Panarin],” Kane said.

“It could be a great thing for our team and one of those things that you didn’t really expect to happen.”

IN THE PITS Jenna Fryer Kenseth is only one point back, and Denny Hamlin sits two points out.

Only one of them is making it to the final four Nov. 20 at Homestead-Miami Speedway if Harvick wins, and the chances of Joe Gibbs Racing getting multiple cars into the championship took a hit Sunday. The team dominated the regular season and Kevin Harvick had 50 percent of the drivers in this round of eight.

Once a threat to get all four cars into the finale, JGR is only guaranteed to be represented by Carl Edwards, who used a fast pit stop to win a rain-shortened race Sunday night at Texas. It was the least optimal outcome for JGR in terms of getting multiple cars into the finale.

Edwards, you see, was last in the playoff standings, and that miracle win gave him an automatic berth.

Although the rules show two spots still remaining and three JGR drivers

hovering at the top of the standings, the threat of a Harvick win at Phoenix has burst JGR’s hopes.

So here’s the situation: Harvick for the win: He’s an eighttime winner at Phoenix and absolutely has owned the place since the track was reconfigured in 2011. He also is in a situation that Harvick handles quite well – he pretty much has to win or won’t make it to the finale for a third straight year.

Harvick is known as a macho driver brimming with confidence, and he didn’t seem concerned about Joey Logano his positioning headed into Phoenix. His warning? He’ll just go to Phoenix and do what he always does there.

JGR: The team had hoped to sweep the finale but can’t because Jimmie Johnson earned one of the spots with a win at Martinsville. Best case scenario is that the team gets two more cars into the final, but that certainly will come with hard internal feelings.

Busch, Kenseth and Hamlin likely all will be racing for themselves Sunday, and teamwork will be an afterthought.

It wouldn’t be a shock if JGR doesn’t get even one more car into the finale because anything can happen Sunday.

Logano: He won at Talladega in the last round to stave off elimination, and he doesn’t need to win at Phoenix to make it to Homestead. He essentially is racing the Gibbs cars and trying to finish higher than the three Toyotas so he can grab a spot on points.

It’ll be a tough battle, but Logano likes sticking it to the team that let him go three years ago.

Kurt Busch: He’s an afterthought right now after iffy performances in the past two races have him ranked last in the standings. He most certainly has to win at Phoenix to advance, and it’s a good track for Busch. He has four consecutive top-10 finishes at Phoenix and could pull off a miracle.

Should he get the win, it will come at the expense of Stewart-Haas Racing teammate Harvick. Based on the standings, they both can’t make the final four.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Only an amateur would fill out a Chase for the Sprint Cup championship bracket and not mark down Kevin Harvick for a win at Phoenix.

Harvick has proven he’s just about unbeatable in the desert, and when his playoff chances are on the line, he’s delivered time and again. Harvick has won six of the past nine races at Phoenix, finished second in two of his losses and is guaranteed to show up this weekend with a car capable of demoralizing the field.

Assuming it will take nothing short of a freak incident to keep Harvick out of victory lane, there’s essentially only one spot in the finale up for grabs Sunday.

Problem is, there are five drivers jockeying for that last spot.

And only two points separate three of those drivers in the standings.

To say there will be some brokenhearted teams Sunday is an understatement. This year’s version of the Chase has been anticlimactic, sometimes even boring, but this bottleneck in the standings is something to behold.

Reigning series champion Kyle Busch and Joey Logano are tied in the standings. Busch’s teammate Matt
